《Peerless Soldier King In Three Realms》


 Chapter 1

    In April, the night is as cool as water.


    In the barracks, Zhang Xiu was dressed in a suit of armor stained with bloodstains and was sitting upright. He held the sword in front of him in his right hand and a handkerchief in his left hand, slowly wiping the blade.


    The spotless blade reflects Zhang Xiu''s sharp and angular face, showing a murderous air.


    Two days ago, Zhang Xiu entered Nanyang County with her Uncle Zhang Ji. In the chaos, Zhang Ji was hit by a bow and arrow, and soon died. Zhang Xiu took over the army, with the army and war and retreat. In order to resist the pursuit of Liu Biao in Jingzhou, he took the lead and fainted.


    Thanks to his own soldiers to save him, otherwise he will die in the battlefield.


    It''s also this faint, with the rebirth of Zhang Xiu.


    The rebirth of Zhang Xiu, to be exact, is the third generation of Zhang Xiu.


    In the first generation, Zhang Xiu stationed troops in Nanyang County and was a vassal. But after Cao Cao came to Nanyang County, his aunt Zou''s family was occupied by Cao Cao, and Jia Xu, a confidant counselor, surrendered to Cao Cao, and finally he was forced to die.


    After her death, Zhang Xiu went through modern times and became a crying baby. When he grew up, he joined the army and made many achievements in the army, becoming the strongest soldier king of the Republic.


    After a mission, Zhang Xiu went home to have a rest. Wake up, but things are different, found himself back to the Three Kingdoms, back to the first year of Jian''an. At this time, Zhang Xiu, who had seen all kinds of later generations, had a wide range of vision, and had a better insight into the general trend of the late Han Dynasty.


    "Cao Cao, I''m back!"


    "In this life, I will not let my aunt be humiliated any more; in this life, I will fight against Cao and Liu; in this life, I will be emperor, I will turn the world upside down for me."


    Suddenly, a sound of footwork came from outside the account.


    Zhang Xiu heard the sound of footsteps, and a sense of obliteration passed in her eyes.


    In my memory, just tonight, General Li Chen will take people to seize power. Li Chen is Zhang Ji''s elder brother. When it comes to relationship, he is Zhang Xiu''s uncle. He was born with a huge back. Although Zhang Xiu is good at martial arts, she is only 18 years old, while Li Chen is a veteran in the army.


    In terms of age, Zhang Xiu has no advantage.


    When Zhang Ji was there, he could convince the generals, and Li Chen didn''t dare to jump. Zhang Ji died, and temporarily get rid of the pursuit, Li Chen can''t wait to jump out, want to suppress Zhang Xiu, so as to control the army.


    After a while, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and Li Chen took five generals to stride in.


    Li Chen walked up to Zhang Xiu, looked down at her and said, "you are too young and inexperienced to be in charge of military affairs, my dear nephew. From today on, my uncle will take over the military affairs. If you hand over your talisman, my uncle will not treat you badly. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu disdained to smile.


    Just Li Chen, just a clown.


    Zhang Xiu stood up, his right hand still carrying the sword. He is 183cm tall, taller than Li Chen. Together, you will have the feeling of overlooking Li Chen.


    This posture made Li Chen suddenly frown.


    Li Chen didn''t like this feeling.


    Zhang Xiu glanced back at Li Chen and said with a sneer, "as soon as your uncle passed away, Li Chen can''t wait to master military power. It''s too ugly to eat. What''s more, when my uncle died, he gave me the talisman and let me take charge of the army. Are you bringing someone here to overturn your uncle''s decision? "


    With a sincere expression, Li Chen said, "it''s not my uncle who wants to seize power. It''s you who are too young to convince the soldiers. You can rest assured that my uncle will take over the army for the time being. When you are familiar with military affairs and have experience, my uncle will return the military power to you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed.


    Li Chen''s words are really ironic. When he is familiar with military affairs and has experience, he can coax a three-year-old by giving back military power to him.


    Li Chen frowned and said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang xiudao: "Uncle Xiao thinks very well."


    Li Chen listened to Zhang Xiu''s sarcastic words and looked at her. In front of him, Zhang Xiu gave him a strange feeling. In Li Chen''s impression, Zhang Xiu is straight temper, straight to speak, not roundabout irony.


    Regardless of Li Chen''s idea, Zhang Xiu continued: "it''s not impossible for uncle to ask for military talisman."


    "Really?"


    Li Chen suddenly excited, can''t help rubbing his hands. When Zhang Ji was there, Li Chen could only keep his peace. After all, Zhang Ji was the general. Now that Zhang Ji is dead, Li Chen is eager to master military power and become the leader of the army.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the condition for me to give the talisman to my uncle is to borrow something from him."


    Li Chen patted his chest and said firmly: "as long as you are willing to hand over the talisman, you can borrow anything."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I want to borrow my uncle''s head for use!"


    Li Chen''s face changed greatly and said: "you..."


    At the moment when Li Chen spoke, Zhang Xiu lifted her right hand lightly, turned her long sword, and then cut it out. The cold light of the blade flashed away in the air, leaving a blood line in Li Chen''s throat.


    "Poof!"


    The bloodstains burst and the red blood splashed out."I, I don''t..."


    Li Chen wants to speak, but when it comes to his mouth, he vomits blood in his mouth. The blood gushes out, making Li Chen unable to speak any more. Li Chen raised his hand to catch Zhang Xiu, but as soon as his hand was raised, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground.


    This scene happened too suddenly.


    The generals were stunned and even more shocked.


    Zhang Xiu, with a sharp eye, sweeps the general who follows Li Chen and says in a deep voice: "Li Chen is a rebel. I''m going to kill Li Chen. Do you think it''s proper? "


    Everyone looked at each other.


    People are killed, you ask?


    Obviously, this is Zhang Xiu''s intention to force them to make a statement.


    At this time, one of the generals took a step forward, and the man said with a strong face: "Zhang Xiu, you even killed your uncle. You are insane. A man like you, even if he has a talisman in his hand, is not worthy to master the army. If you command the army, you will only make the army in trouble. I''m Cui Yan, the first one to disagree. "


    This person''s name is Cui Yan, who is Li Chen''s direct family.


    As Zhang Ji''s sworn brother, Li Chen also has 1000 elite soldiers. When the army was defeated, Li Chen''s 1000 elite soldiers were a force that could not be ignored.


    After refuting Zhang Xiu, Cui Yan looked at the other four and said, "are you four willing to listen to the order of a hairy boy. He is reckless and impulsive. If he leads the army, we will die. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard Cui Yan''s words, she sneered.


    Cui Yan doesn''t give up until he reaches the Yellow River. Even Li Chen is dead. Cui Yan wants to bewitch the rest of the generals. In Zhang Xiu''s view, Cui Yan is in order to replace him and let him control the army.


    Kings, Marquises and generals would rather have seed!


    When Li Chen is killed, Cui Yan''s ambition grows.


    Zhang Xiu, who used to be Zhang Xiu, would be furious when she heard Cui Yan''s rebellious words. She would even kill Cui Yan with a knife. But after experiencing countless things, Zhang Xiu''s temperament has already changed greatly, and she is no longer the former reckless and impulsive Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiusha Li Chen, is to thunder means to frighten Cui Yan and others, so that people dare not act rashly. In front of Cui Yan, there is no need to kill him directly. He has a better way to deal with it.

 Chapter 2

    In addition to Cui Yan, three of the other four generals were in line with Cui Yan. However, their personalities are not strong and their abilities are common.


    The last one, Huang Zhao, is Cui Yan''s deputy general, who assists Cui Yan in handling military affairs.


    Regardless of Cui Yan''s threat, Zhang Xiu glances at the four people one by one, and finally returns to Cui Yan, saying: "Cui Yan, if you want to kill the general, you can do it yourself. Why encourage others? If you can kill me, the rest will be convinced. "


    Cui Yan''s mouth twitches.


    As the chief General of the army, he knew Zhang Xiu''s martial arts very well. It''s hard for him to kill Zhang Xiu. Even if there are three or five more of him, it''s not enough for Zhang Xiu to kill him.


    So Cui Yan has to unite with others.


    Cui Yan ignored Zhang Xiu and continued to bewitch her: "you guys, we have been in the army for many years. We can have what we are today in exchange for real weapons on the battlefield. Zhang Xiu, a yellow mouthed child, is going to order us, but we will not accept it. Are you willing to be dispatched by him? "


    Huang Zhao didn''t say a word, and the other three looked hesitant.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Cui Yan''s words sound like this. But when you think about it, it doesn''t make sense. "


    "You fart!" said Cui Yan


    Zhang Xiu said: "do you smell fart?"


    "You..."


    Cui Yan heard that Zhang Xiu was close to a rogue, but he was speechless for a while. He had never met such a Zhang Xiu. In the past, Zhang Xiu was not good at words, advocated force, did things straight, and fought against each other.


    At the moment, Cui Yan hopes Zhang Xiu will do it. Li Chen was killed just now, but Cui Yan was on guard against Zhang Xiu all the time. As long as Zhang Xiu started, he would immediately escape. He could also use the opportunity to seduce others to fight back and kill Zhang Xiu.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t do it.


    This makes Cui Yan''s teeth itch.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "to tell you the truth, in Ben Jiang''s eyes, you Cui Yan is a waste. You, Cui Yan, want to seize power and stand on your own. Even if you succeed in seizing power, how can you resist Liu Biao''s pursuit? "


    "Now the army is short of food. Can you solve the problem of food with your little ability?"


    "Obviously, you can''t solve it."


    "If you withdraw without fighting, and want to return to Guanzhong, can you speak in front of Li Xi and Guo Si in your capacity as Cui Yan?"


    "Obviously, you can''t either."


    "You, Cui Yan, can''t handle it well."


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is extremely strong, and her words are more sharp. He said in a deep voice: "not only Cui Yan is not good, but even the four of you can''t solve the current dilemma. Only Ben Jiang can turn the tide. Ben will be able to lead your army to block Liu Biao and get food for you. All this can only be accomplished by Ben Jiang. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words made everyone''s heart sink.


    They follow Li Chen to force Zhang Xiu, but they don''t think about this problem, because Li Chen also has qualifications and certain contacts. If Li Chen controls the army, he should be able to tide over the difficulties.


    But Cui Yan can''t do it. Cui Yan is a small leader. He can''t lead the people out of the predicament if he wants to have contacts, no contacts, no force, no wisdom.


    Although Zhang Xiu is young, she is quite different.


    Zhang Xiu became famous when she was young. Her martial arts are very good. The key is that Zhang Xiu can speak in front of Li Xi and Guo Si. After all, Zhang Xiu is Zhang Ji''s nephew and is recognized by Zhang Ji.


    With this consideration, people have noticed.


    Cui Yan saw several people''s expressions, and saw each one''s expression moved. He became anxious and said: "Zhang Xiu, you are arrogant and bluffing. You can''t solve today''s dilemma with your dirty mouth. "


    At the bottom of Cui Yan''s heart, he suddenly felt clumsy and even regretted.


    You shouldn''t be a bird.


    For a while, he jumped out to fight against Zhang Xiu, and now he is in a dilemma. But his sword had come out of its sheath and could not be taken back at all. He could only go to the dark one way. Only by taking Zhang Xiu can he survive, otherwise he will be targeted by Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu sees Cui Yan''s anxiety, she looks contemptuous.


    I don''t have the ability to rebel.


    This is beyond our capacity.


    Zhang Xiu tone insipid, continued: "this will say can solve, can solve. It''s just a dilemma. What''s the point? On the contrary, Cui Yan, taking advantage of the alternation of military power, intends to rebel, and his crime should be punished. Ben will think that this is just your opinion, not everyone else''s


    When he said this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Huang Zhao with profound meaning.


    Huang Zhao was staring at Zhang Xiu, and then recalled what Zhang Xiu had just said, his heart jumped. He thinks that Li Chen has died. Looking at the situation just now, Cui Yan is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Moreover, Zhang Xiu says that Cui Yan should be punished for his crime, and obviously wants to kill Cui Yan.


    Huang Zhao clenched his teeth and made a decision in his heart. His hand pressed on the hilt suddenly started to work.


    "Sonorous!"


    When the long sword comes out of its sheath, Huang Zhaoting''s sword comes out.


    "Cui Yan, you''re going to be punished for your crimes!"Huang Zhao''s face was cold and sharp, and his sword pierced Cui Yan''s heart.


    "Huang Zhao, you..."


    Cui Yan''s eyes widened, and his rough cheek showed an incredible look. He never thought that his deputy would dare to kill him and pierce his heart with a sword. Cui Yan reaches for the sword, but as soon as he makes a move, Huang Zhao stirs the sword in his hand, which breaks Cui Yan''s heart and pulls out the sword.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood splashed from the chest and fell on the ground.


    "Bang!"


    Cui Yan''s massive body fell to the ground.


    Huang Zhao threw away his sword and knelt down on the ground with a plop. He said with his head, "finally, Huang Zhao, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Xiu smiles from the corner of her mouth.


    His eyes turned and fell on the other three.


    Three people are staring at Zhang Xiu, inexplicably flustered, especially Li Chen and Cui Yan have been killed, Huang Zhao worship Zhang Xiu, they can no longer be stable, had to kneel down and said: "the end will see the Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "it''s a great honor for us to trust our general. Take it easy. Although we were defeated, it was only temporary. As long as Ben will be here, he will surely lead you out of trouble. All right, get up. "


    "Thank you


    Huang Zhao and the other three stood up and bowed.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Huang Zhao, the 1000 elites under Li Chen''s command are led by you. From today on, you will be a partial general in the army, below the general and above the general. "


    "Thank you


    Huang Zhao was immediately excited when he heard it. Knowing that he was right this time, he killed Cui Yan and showed his loyalty to Zhang Xiu. He changed from deputy general to partial general and became the second person in the army. This was a great leap.


    The other three did not dare to say anything.


    Their impression of Zhang Xiu has changed. They are now facing Zhang Xiu, can no longer maintain the calm and calm before, more awe and fear at the bottom of their hearts.


    In front of her, Zhang Xiu seemed to be a different person.


    It is not so much Huang Zhao who killed Cui Yan as Zhang Xiu who killed him with a knife. Zhang Xiu is very good at martial arts and directly kills Cui Yan. But he says that "Treason" is Cui Yan''s idea, not everyone''s idea, but beating Huang Zhao.


    If Huang Zhao doesn''t act, it means that Huang Zhao is on Cui Yan''s side. On the other hand, if Huang Zhao wants to prove himself, he has to be Zhang Xiu''s knife and kill Cui Yan for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu made use of Huang Zhao and promoted Huang Zhao Yu to reuse, which can be described as a combination of grace and power.


    This kind of Zhang embroidery is frightening.


    Zhang Xiu used to be straight hearted, no wrist, no mind, it''s easy to deal with. In front of Zhang Xiu, do a ring, turn hand for cloud cover hand for rain, they can''t guess Zhang Xiu''s idea.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the urgent voice sounded outside the camp.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    "Lord, wait a minute!"


    Pointing to the bodies of Li Chen and Cui Yan on the ground, Huang Zhao suggested: "Lord, they..."


    Zhang Xiu interrupted: "there is no need to hide the death of Li Chen and Cui Yan. Since the two men intend to rebel, they will naturally make it public and let all the soldiers know. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    When Huang Zhao heard the words, he would not say more.


    The curtain of the tent was lifted and a sentry entered quickly. When the sentry entered the moment, he saw the bodies of Li Chen and Cui Yan. When he was stunned, he regained his mind and lowered his head and said, "general, the sentinel has sent back the news that Liu Biao''s pursuers are coming. It''s less than ten miles away from us. The leader of the army is Cai Mao, a general of Jingzhou. "

 Chapter 3

    "What, is Cai Maozhen here?"


    Huang Zhao''s face changed greatly when he heard it.


    When the other three heard the speech, they all looked frightened. Zhang jizhongjian died of illness. Now they are being chased by Jingzhou army. They are scared of Jingzhou army. What''s more, this time it''s Jingzhou general Cai Mao. They were even more frightened. They wanted to fly back immediately.


    When Zhang Xiu heard that it was Cai Mao, she was not at all flustered. She asked, "how many soldiers are Cai Mao chasing all night?"


    Sentinel report: "report back to general, roughly estimated that there are two thousand soldiers under Cai Mao''s command."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Hearing the speech, Zhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    His laughter came into Huang Zhao''s ears, as well as other people''s ears.


    Huang Zhao asked, "Why are you laughing, my lord?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "what I''m going to laugh at is that Cai Mao, with only two thousand soldiers, dares to chase him all night. It''s really audacious. This time, Cai Mao was caught in the trap. What''s more, it''s an opportunity that God has given us. "


    Huang Zhao worried: "my Lord, our soldiers are scared out of their wits. They are unstable and lack of combat effectiveness. Even though there are more people than Cai Mao, it is difficult to fight. "


    The other three agreed.


    Huang Zhao and the rest of the generals were afraid of fighting with the Jingzhou army.


    Cai Mao led two thousand elite soldiers to kill them. They were all in a panic and had no mind to resist. It can be imagined that if such an army fought with the Jingzhou army, it would surely break up.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "Huang Zhao, how many soldiers are there under your command?"


    "A thousand soldiers!"


    Huang Zhao answered without thinking.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the other three and said, "Huang Zhao has a thousand excellent soldiers, and each of you has more than a thousand. All in all, we have nearly 5000 soldiers. With 5000 troops, we can win against Cai Mao''s 2000 men! "


    Huang Zhao shook his head and said, "my Lord, although we have a large number of people, our morale is turbulent. Our soldiers are afraid of being beaten and can''t fight. Even if they go to war, they will be defeated. "


    Fighting in the battlefield is crucial.


    If all the soldiers are afraid, they will run away as soon as they arrive at the battlefield. No matter how many people there are, it will not help.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, confident way: "the soldier''s problem, this will solve.". Now, go to the camp and gather the soldiers. I''m going to lecture the soldiers and let them have the courage to fight Cai Mao. "


    "Here!"


    Huang Zhao is helpless to respond.


    Although he is not optimistic about Zhang Xiu, since he is loyal to her, he can only obey her orders. Seeing that there was no room to turn around, the other three responded one by one and went out of the barracks to gather the soldiers.


    Half a quarter of an hour later, all the soldiers assembled.


    Zhang Xiu came to the front of the army and stood upright. He was leaning on the ground with his sword, pressing the hilt with both hands. His eyes were sharp, and he slowly swept the 5000 soldiers under his command.


    Nowadays, there is a shortage of food in the army, and most of the soldiers are yellow, thin and in poor spirits. In particular, during the first World War of attacking Zao County, the army suffered heavy losses when it retreated, and many soldiers were still injured. Many weapons were lost and their combat effectiveness had fallen to the bottom.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t lose heart at all.


    Even if Cai Mao is here, he is confident of winning.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "Ben has just received the news from the sentinel. In our rear, general Cai Mao of Jingzhou personally led 2000 soldiers to chase us all night to take us."


    WOW!!


    In a word, it causes a shock.


    Countless soldiers were talking and whispering. Without exception, the faces of the soldiers showed a look of panic. They were afraid of the Jingzhou army and were afraid of being overtaken by Cai Mao.


    The soldiers were talking about the retreat.


    Zhang Xiu is not far away from the soldiers. She clearly hears the words of all the soldiers and says in a loud voice: "silence!"


    At the command of Huang Zhao and other generals, the discussion gradually stopped. Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her to speak.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cai Mao killed all night. The general''s first reaction is the same as you. They all want to retreat and avoid Cai Mao''s pursuit. But Ben would have thought about the consequences of our retreat. "


    "What we came to do in Zao county is because the army is short of food, so we came to Zao county to plunder food."


    "Without food in the army, where can we retreat? Back to Chang''an? Li didn''t welcome us. He even wanted to swallow us and kill us soon. Back to Yanzhou? Cao Cao hated the Xiliang army and wanted to annihilate all the Xiliang army, proving that he was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. "


    "We have no way back now."


    "Even if we retreat, there will be no food or money in the army. Before we return to Chang''an, we will starve to death on the road."


    Zhang Xiu said in a loud voice: "brothers, we have no way back now."


    "We have only one war!"


    "If we want food, a foothold, money and women, we can only fight Cai Mao to death. Cai Mao led the army to chase after him all night. He had only 2000 people, while we had 5000 people. ""As long as we fight to the death and capture Cai Mao alive, we can bargain with Liu Biao and get food and territory from Liu Biao''s hands, so we don''t have to be displaced any more."


    "Cai Mao made a surprise attack all night long, which was a big military taboo."


    "Our unexpected counterattack, this battle will win."


    Zhang Xiu''s words were full of iron and blood, and she said forcefully: "I will not retreat because there is no way out. Those who want to retreat will not be stopped. But Ben will fight to the end. Are you willing to fight to the death with us? "


    "Fight to the death!"


    Huang Zhao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, but he didn''t even think about it. He answered directly. As Zhang Xiu''s lineage, he must support Zhang Xiu.


    "Fight to the end!"


    In the crowd, there were generals and soldiers.


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    ¡­¡­


    One voice after another, from sporadic gradually become neat, the voice is more rebellious and ferocious. In the first World War in Shaxian County, 5000 soldiers lost heart and were terrified. They were a group of sad soldiers. The only way to stimulate the morale of these soldiers is to start with money and food.


    This is the entry point of Zhang Xiu.


    Through Zhang Xiu''s analysis, soldiers understand that there is no way back, in order to breed the courage to fight to death. Moreover, after Zhang Xiu''s analysis, only when they have the chance to win can the soldiers be willing to fight to the death.


    Zhang Xiu see morale recovery, the bottom of my heart was relieved.


    This group of mourners can still fight.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, motioned for the soldiers to be quiet, and when all the shouting subsided, Zhang Xiu continued: "Cai Mao chased all night, it''s a lonely army. Since it is a lonely army, it is easy to calculate. The strategy of this war will have been considered


    "Huang Zhao, listen to the order!"


    Zhang Xiu drank loudly.


    "The end will be here!"


    Huang Zhao stood up and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Ben will order you to lead your soldiers, prepare the rocket immediately, and then ambush outside the camp. Wait for the general''s order, and fire the arrow. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhao responded with a clasping fist and returned to the army.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Ling Feng listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Ling Feng stepped out and replied solemnly. Together with other Zhang Shi and Li Miao, he was the master who had seen Zhang Xiu''s means in the camp.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you lead your soldiers, gather hay, and spread all the hay in the camp."


    "Here it is


    Ling Feng should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Zhang Shi, Li Miao!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhang Shi and Li Miao stood up immediately.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "the soldiers under your command lie in ambush in the forest outside the camp."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Shi and Li Miao responded immediately.


    "Act!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    All the people have to make, the flustered heart is also calm down, quickly to carry out the order.

 Chapter 4

    Under the night, the moon is bright and the stars are rare.


    Cai Mao led 2000 elite soldiers on their way all night, ready to take Zhang Xiu back to Xiangyang to show off their strength. Cai Mao was born in Jingxiang family. His second sister married Liu Biao. As Liu Biao''s in laws, Cai Mao is happy to marry Liu Biao. On the other hand, he is not willing to let people say that he ascended to a high position with the help of marriage. He wants to prove his ability through actual combat achievements.


    That''s why Cai Mao pursued him all night.


    Cai Mao was born in a big family. He was familiar with military books and knew the art of war. He knew the truth that the poor should not be pursued, but he knew more clearly that after Zhang Ji''s defeat, the Xiliang army was already in a state of panic.


    At this time, the cover up must be successful.


    The rapid sound of horse''s hooves and footsteps resounded through the night sky, breaking the silence of the night.


    Cai Mao ordered: "speed up, full speed ahead. We are not far away from the place where the Xiliang army encamped. If you win the Xiliang army, you will be rewarded. "


    He kept ordering acceleration.


    Beside Cai Mao, he was accompanied by a rough looking general. His name is Zhang Yun, Liu Biao''s nephew. Now, Zhang Yun is also under Cai Mao''s command. This time he pursues the Xiliang army, Zhang Yun also holds great hope.


    As Zhang Yun went on his way, he boasted: "general Cai, in the first World War of Zao County, we have severely damaged Zhang Ji''s Xiliang army. Now, if we pursue all night, we will be able to win the first World War and win the Xiliang army completely. "


    Cai Mao said with a smile, "what my brother said is true. You have won the Xiliang army this time


    Zhang Yun quickly said: "I just help the general, can defeat the Xiliang army, all rely on the general to strategize."


    Cai Mao said: "although there is a general layout, there is also the merit of a younger brother."


    They flattered each other. Either Cai Mao or Zhang Yun regarded Zhang Xiu''s Xiliang army as something in their pocket. They thought that there was no suspense about the battle.


    The team is on its way.


    Late at night, the team approached Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Cai Mao ordered the army to stop and hide in the dark, looking at Zhang Xiu''s camp in the distance. He saw the chaos in the camp, only a few soldiers defending at the gate of the camp, with a look of ecstasy on his face.


    It is clear that there is no defense and it is an opportunity to win the Xiliang army.


    "Kill


    Cai Mao drew out his sword and gave the order to attack.


    "Kill


    Zhang Yun is also eager to make contributions, and takes the lead in driving out.


    Immediately after that, the rest of the soldiers also charged and rushed to the camp. As soon as the two thousand soldiers appeared, they were found by the Xiliang soldiers at the gate of the camp. Seeing this, several night watchmen turned and hid in the camp.


    Cai Mao was even more happy when the garrison soldiers couldn''t resist.


    He led the army to attack. A moment later, Cai Mao and his soldiers entered the camp.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    Cai Mao orders in a loud voice that he doesn''t plan to recruit Xiliang army, but only plans to take his head back.


    At the moment, Jingzhou soldiers are excited. They rushed into barracks with their swords. But when Jingzhou soldiers rushed into the barracks, they found a situation, that is, there was no one in the barracks.


    The news soon came to Cai Mao''s ears.


    After hearing the news, Cai Mao frowned and had a bad feeling in his heart.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Cai Mao had this idea in his mind.


    If there are no soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp and there are no people in the tent, it is an empty camp. However, a small number of soldiers were stationed at the gate of the camp at the beginning. It can be seen that the Xiliang army did not withdraw and was still here. But at this time, there is no one in the tent in the camp, it must be an ambush.


    "Withdraw, withdraw at once!"


    Cai Mao was nervous and ordered to retreat.


    Just as Cai Mao was preparing to retreat, Zhang Xiu led her troops out of the camp. The soldiers beside Zhang Xiu were all armed with bows and arrows, and all the arrows were bound with gauze soaked in kerosene.


    Although the torch ignites the bow and arrow, the arrow burns.


    "Shoot the arrow!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered.


    In an instant, the vibrating sound of the bowstring continued to ring. A rocket took off, crossed an arc in the air, and then fell into the camp. As soon as the rocket landed, it burst into flames.


    In all directions of the camp, there are rockets falling down and burning fast.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that Cai Mao was coming, she let the soldiers lay countless hay in the camp. When the hay meets the open fire, it burns quickly, so that in a short time, a sea of fire forms in the camp.


    When the fire burns, the smoke rises.


    In the camp, when Cai Mao retreated, he encountered a burning fire.


    At this moment, Cai Mao became anxious.


    Cai Mao reflected on himself and thought that when he arrived outside the camp, he could send a few soldiers to the camp to test, so that he would not be ambushed or caught in a sea of fire.


    But it''s too late!


    "Withdraw! Get out of here


    Cai Mao ordered the soldiers to rush forward.Although the range of the camp was small, some of CAI Mao''s soldiers were soon injured under the attack of the sea of fire. Cai Mao rushed out of his mind and couldn''t manage the wounded soldiers. He took people to the gate of the barracks and rushed out.


    Zhang Xiu saw people rush out and ordered: "Archer, let go!"


    This wave is not firing rockets, it''s firing bows and arrows. After a round of arrow rain, the Jingzhou soldiers who rushed out first were hit by arrows one after another. They kept falling at the gate of the camp and died under the shooting of bows and arrows.


    "Go ahead, go ahead!"


    Cai Mao clenched his teeth and ordered.


    There is a sea of fire in the rear. There is no doubt that you will die in the sea of fire. Although there is arrow rain ahead, as long as you rush out, there is still a ray of life. Jingzhou soldiers braved the rain of arrows and kept rushing out.


    With the continuous breakthrough of Jingzhou soldiers, they finally broke out of the scope of bow and arrow.


    Closer, bow and arrow will not work.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Cai Mao.


    Seeing that Cai Mao was going to break through, Zhang Xiu said, "it''s today to capture Cai Mao. Kill me, boys


    Huang Zhao, Ling Feng, Zhang Shi, Li Miao and others all led the army to kill. Zhang Xiu also turned over and got on the horse. She drove the horse out first. With the rein in his left hand and the golden spear in his right hand, he rushed directly to Cai Mao''s position.


    "Cai Mao, take your life!"


    Zhang Xiu drank a lot in her mouth.


    Trampling on the horse''s hoof, the horse is like an arrow away from the string, quickly getting close to Cai Mao. At this time, a soldier came to resist, and Zhang Xiu''s golden spear pierced directly. The cold cold star flashed through the air, and the tip of the spear penetrated the soldier''s body.


    Zhang Xiu draws out a long gun and continues to rush at Cai Mao.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    Ten feet!


    Eight feet!


    Six feet!


    When the two sides were less than 40 Zhang, Cai Mao saw that he could not get rid of Zhang Xiu, so he did not retreat, but raised his sword to meet Zhang Xiu. Cai Mao was the chief General of the army. He was good at both literature and martial arts.


    Cai Mao was not afraid even if he faced the challenge.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Cai Mao did not escape, she began to smile at the corner of her mouth and swept the tiger head with a golden gun.


    "Dang!"


    The impact of the gun and the blade made the eardrum ache.


    Under the impact of the great power, Cai Mao''s face suddenly changed. Under the impact of Zhang Xiu''s strength, the sword in his hand could not be grasped completely. The mouth of the tiger was numb, the palm was painful, and the long sword was knocked away directly.


    "Down


    Zhang Xiu a hit powerful, tiger head golden gun in the air a turn, then swept out.


    "Pa!"


    When the barrel of the gun hit Cai Mao''s waist, he heard a click. Cai Mao''s ribs were broken and he screamed in pain. Under the impact of the great force, Cai Mao''s body flew upside down from the horse and plummeted to the ground.


    As soon as Cai Mao fell to the ground, before he had time to roll to escape, he saw a figure galloping towards him and stopping in front of him. The sharp point of the gun stopped in front of his chest.


    "If Cai Mao is captured, he will not be killed!"


    The tip of Zhang Xiu''s gun is aimed at Cai Mao''s heart, and he shouts loudly.

 Chapter 5

    The capture of CAI Mao sounded like thunder in the ears of Jingzhou soldiers.


    Immediately after that, Huang Zhao, Ling Feng and others yelled that Cai Mao was captured. When all the Xiliang soldiers yelled, their voices echoed outside the camp. Under the red light, Jingzhou soldiers panicked.


    "Don''t kill me. I''m Zhang Yun. I''m Liu Biao''s nephew. I''m willing to surrender!"


    In the Jingzhou army, Zhang Yun was the first to throw away his weapons and surrender. He didn''t want to surrender, but it was the Xiliang army all around him. He couldn''t break through the encirclement. If he resisted again, he would be dismembered and had to surrender.


    Zhang Yun surrendered, tearing up the idea of all Jingzhou soldiers fighting to the end, and everyone threw away their weapons to surrender.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to detain Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and took over the weapons of Jingzhou soldiers. After that, Jingzhou soldiers were detained alone and began to count the losses.


    In this battle, 36 soldiers under Zhang Xiu died and more than 300 were injured. As a result of this war, more than 400 Jingzhou soldiers were killed and all Jingzhou soldiers were captured.


    The army set up camp again, but all the remaining grain and tents were burned.


    Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhao and others all rest in the open air.


    The night was deep, and Zhang Xiu had no rest.


    Zhang Xiu called all the soldiers together again. This time, all the soldiers sat on the ground. And Zhang Xiu is standing in the front, his eyes swept the soldiers, the eyes of the fighting spirit.


    Take Cai Mao and turn the morale of the army around.


    Take Cai Mao, he won over all the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu, who lived in the past, disdains to do the ideological work of soldiers and share weal and woe with soldiers. She only knows how to fight bravely and how to fight savagely on the battlefield. After the tempering and learning of later generations, Zhang Xiu has changed too much. Especially after he grew up in the army, he knew the importance of ideological work.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "brothers, we have won this battle. We captured Cai Mao alive and captured more than 1500 Jingzhou soldiers. "


    "However, we still lack food, weapons and territory. But with CAI Mao and more than 1500 prisoners, we have the capital to negotiate with Liu Biao. "


    "We''ve been through this."


    "Next, our days will be better and better."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "with CAI Mao, Zhang Yun and other prisoners in hand, we would have personally sent an envoy to Xiangyang to see Liu Biao to exchange food and weapons for our foothold."


    Huang Zhao said in a loud voice: "no, general!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed an appreciation and asked, "why?"


    In Zhang Xiu''s plan, the whole rhythm is controlled by him. He will personally incite the soldiers, let the soldiers appreciate his efforts, and let the soldiers follow him wholeheartedly.


    Huang Zhao suddenly interrupts and the plan changes.


    However, Huang Zhao''s interruption is not a bad thing, but Huang Zhao understands Zhang Xiu''s intention and then interrupts. Just so, Zhang Xiu asked.


    Huang Zhao said immediately: "the general is a man of thousands of gold. He is the life and death of all the soldiers. Once the general is sent to the enemy camp, we will be completely defeated if there is any difference. General, will you go to see Liu Biao as an envoy? "


    The rest of the officers and men suddenly realized.


    Now I have hatred with Liu Biao. Once I go to the embassy, I may risk my life.


    "General, the general is willing to send an envoy to Xiangyang."


    Ling Feng didn''t even want to talk.


    "General, I''m willing to be an envoy."


    Li Miao spoke immediately.


    Three people all open their mouths to offer themselves, soldiers in the army are worried about the safety of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said in a voice: "this mission to Xiangyang is very important. If you go to Xiangyang, it''s hard to accomplish. When it comes to contingency, you are all generals in the army, and you are short of eloquence. Once you go, not only can things not be done, but you may make a mess of things. This time, Ben must go in person. Even if there is a sea of fire ahead, even if there is an abyss ahead, Ben will have to go. Even if the people in Xiangyang do their best, the general will not turn back. Though there are thousands of people, I will go


    "The general wins!"


    Huang Zhao heard Zhang Xiu''s words and immediately raised his voice.


    "The general wins!"


    "The general wins!"


    ¡­¡­


    Ling Feng, Li Miao and others all opened their mouths.


    The soldiers in the army were affected by the atmosphere. They were deeply moved by Zhang Xiu''s determination, and were full of gratitude and respect.


    Seeing the reaction of the soldiers, Zhang Xiu nodded with satisfaction.


    After this incident, the morale of the army was stabilized.


    Under such circumstances, if there is another person like Li Chen who wants to force Zhang Xiu, it is not necessary for Zhang Xiu to do it. Just a word from Zhang Xiu is enough to incite countless soldiers to fight against Li Chen.


    That''s what it''s all about.


    Cai Mao is being held in custody, watching Zhang Xiu agitate soldiers, watching Zhang Xiu mobilize morale, suddenly feel creepy. How could he pursue such a scheming man? It''s a failure.


    After he was captured, he didn''t even speak to Zhang Xiu.Now from the side view, seeing the strength of Zhang Xiu, Cai Mao secretly complained. The more powerful Zhang Xiu is, the more difficult Liu Biao will be when he arrives in Xiangyang. Let Liu Biao difficult, even if he returned to Xiangyang, the situation will be very embarrassing.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, all the sounds disappeared.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "we went through difficulties and arrived at Nanyang County. Along the way, many brothers died and many soldiers left. All of this, Ben will not do well enough, did not let you have enough food and clothing, did not let you have a stable environment. Ben will promise that from today on, we will not be homeless, we will make everyone afraid, we will have a place to stand. "


    Long live the general


    Huang Zhao, as Zhang Xiu''s dog leg, immediately cried out.


    Long live the general


    Long live the general


    ¡­¡­


    All the shouts came together.


    Cai Mao looked at the crazy soldiers of the Xiliang army, his cheek puffed, and his heart was filled with regret. This time he came to pursue, he wanted to find a bargain, but unexpectedly, he came across an iron wall.


    Zhang Xiu and other soldiers stopped shouting and said, "it''s late at night. Everyone has been busy all night. Let''s have a rest early. It''s cold. Remember to keep the fire burning. Don''t get wind cold. "


    The soldiers responded.


    The faces of all the soldiers were full of smiles, and the smiling faces were full of hope.


    After comforting the soldiers, Zhang Xiu came to the place where Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were detained. He lifted up his robe, sat down and said with a smile, "general Cai, Zhang Xiu has heard a lot about you."


    Cai Mao said awkwardly, "if you are a prisoner, you can''t be praised by general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if general CAI was used to replace Nanyang County, does general Cai think Liu Biao would agree?"


    Cai Mao''s face changed slightly.


    Although Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family and plays an important role in the situation in Jingzhou, it is extremely difficult for Liu Biao to replace him with Nanyang County. In CAI Mao''s opinion, Zhang Xiu''s condition is likely to be denied by Liu Biao, which means that he is still Zhang Xiu''s prisoner.

 Chapter 6

    Cai Mao''s mind turned sharply, thinking about the way to get rid of him. He even said: "General Zhang, as long as you release me, I can provide you with food or weapons. I can even suggest to my Lord that you stay in Nanyang County. "


    He didn''t want to be a weight on the table.


    Once he becomes a weight, his position in Liu Biao''s followers will surely drop sharply.


    Even the Cai family will be affected.


    Zhang Xiu disdained a smile, said: "if this will release you, then the initiative to your hands.". What''s more, if you run away and don''t admit it afterwards, what can I do with you? I''m not used to putting my destiny in the hands of others. I''d better go to Xiangyang in person and ask for it from Liu Biao. "


    Cai Mao was so anxious that he said, "General Zhang, how do you want to release me?"


    "I won''t let you go!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a cool color and answered categorically.


    Hearing this, Cai Mao felt that his heart had fallen to the bottom of the valley, and he had no chance. He said, "since general Zhang is not willing to let me go, he is determined to use me to coerce the Lord. Why talk to me?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "because Ben will need food and weapons, the Cai family will have to come up with money and food to redeem you."


    Cai Mao said, "I''m already your prisoner. You''re going to use me to bargain with the Lord. What''s the relationship with the Cai family?"


    Zhang Xiu dusted her robe and said, "if I say it has something to do with it, it has something to do with it."


    "You..."


    Cai Mao''s words stopped him, and he didn''t know what to say.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, too overbearing.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "first, as long as you are alive, Liu Biao has to redeem you. Otherwise, who will work for Liu Biao in Jingzhou. With this alone, Liu Biao has to give food, weapons and territory. "


    "Second, Liu Biao only redeems you who are alive. Whether you will lack arms and legs depends on the sincerity of the Cai family. If the Cai family can''t provide food, money and weapons, the people who give them to Liu Biao may lack arms and legs, or even be disfigured. "


    Zhang Xiu patted Cai Mao''s cheek and said with a smile, "general Cai, do you understand?"


    Cai Mao said angrily: "Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel!"


    With a sneer, Zhang Xiu sneered: "in troubled times, if I am not cruel, I will be killed and swallowed. Ask yourself, will you save my life if Cai Mao catches me


    When Cai Mao heard the speech, he drew his cheek.


    If he catches Zhang Xiu, he will definitely kill her.


    Zhang Xiu added: "once I fall into your hands, I will surely die. And now, you''re at least alive, aren''t you? Cai Mao, don''t pretend to be pathetic. You are not weak. You are not qualified to win sympathy. As a soldier, when you fight on the battlefield, you have to be prepared to be killed. "


    Cai Mao couldn''t be humiliated and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you want money and food. There''s one way to die. If you kill me, the Lord will never let you go, and the Cai family will never let you go. "


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, sneer: "you are really stupid, or pretend to be stupid? Did I not make my statement clear just now? I said I would not kill you because I would bargain with you and Liu Biao. "


    "The best I can do is to break your arms and legs. Or cut your face with a sword blade, and you will become a cripple and an ugly monster. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "since general Cai is willing to be disabled, I will help you. I am always ready to help others. Come on, break Cai Mao''s leg and arm, and write "sin" on his face


    The soldiers must be ordered to come forward immediately.


    "No, don''t come here."


    As soon as Cai Mao saw the soldiers coming, he quickly put out his hand to stop them.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered and asked again, "Cai Mao, have you considered it?"


    Cai Mao said, "I, I..."


    At this moment, Cai Mao hesitated. Once he agreed to Zhang Xiu, the Cai family would become a laughing stock.


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "since you don''t want to, don''t waste my time. Go ahead and break his arms and legs. "


    The soldier standing on one side stepped forward again.


    "Don''t come here, I promise."


    Cai Mao saw that the soldiers rushed over again. He was so scared that he shivered and agreed. At the moment, Cai Mao felt that Zhang Xiu in front of him was like a devil, which made his heart cold.


    Zhang Xiu waved the soldiers back and asked, "general CAI has agreed to the terms. How much food and weapons can the Cai family give? Give Ben a definite word. "


    Cai Mao said, "the Cai family can give general Zhang 10000 Jin of grain, 100 sets of armor and 100 swords."


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "should you send beggars? Ten thousand catties of grain is not enough for our army''s son Lang to plug his teeth. How many people can be equipped with 100 sets of armor and 100 swords? "


    Cai Mao listened to Zhang Xiu''s words, and then saw her fierce eyes, which made her neck shrink. He quickly said, "General Zhang, 30000 Jin of grain, 100 sets of armor and 100 swords are the limits of the Cai family. If it goes beyond this range, the Cai family can''t bear it. After all, the strength of the Cai family is limited. "Zhang Xiu said: "do you want to coax ghosts? Such a big Cai family, the strength of Jingzhou, only this property? Don''t be so fussy. Ben will give you a standard. Buy it now, 100000 Jin of grain, 1000 swords, 500 sets of armor and 100 craftsmen. "


    Cai Mao''s face changed greatly and his expression was bitter.


    As the owner of the Cai family, the family also keeps private soldiers. It''s not too difficult to take out 100000 Jin of grain. Even 1000 swords and 500 sets of armor can be taken out, but a hundred craftsmen are painful.


    Craftsmen are the foundation, and energy sources are constantly making weapons.


    To give a hundred craftsmen to Zhang Xiu is to give her countless weapons.


    Cai Mao said: "General Zhang, the Cai family really can''t bring out so much food and weapons, and there are not so many craftsmen. General Zhang, it''s about my life. I won''t lie. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Ben Jiang doesn''t care whether you can take it out or not. If you can''t take it out, you have to borrow it. Otherwise, be prepared to be disabled. "


    Cai Mao said bitterly, "General Zhang, please be flexible."


    From the bottom of my heart, Cai Mao is not willing to accept it.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t bargain with CAI Mao or give Cai Mao a chance to bargain. She said, "since you can''t take it out, you can''t borrow it. So, take an arm as a discount. According to you, ten thousand catties of grain, one hundred sets of armor and one hundred swords. Come on, I''ll cut off Cai Mao''s arm. "


    When Cai Mao saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t agree with each other, he was about to fight, and his heart was bitter. He is also a good talker, but when he meets Zhang Xiu, he can''t make sense, and he can''t communicate with Zhang Xiu at all.


    Cai Mao knew that he couldn''t bargain. He gritted his teeth and said, "here, I''ll give it. One hundred thousand catties of grain, one thousand swords, five hundred sets of armor, and one hundred craftsmen. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "he who knows current affairs is a hero. General Cai is a smart man. Money and food are gone, and you can earn it again. But if you lose your life, you lose everything. "


    Cai Mao''s heart is dripping with blood.


    He took out 100000 Jin of grain, 1000 swords and 500 sets of armor at one go, and the Cai family also had to break their bones and muscles.


    But in order to survive, Cai Mao had to admit it.


    Zhang Xiu successfully blackmailed Cai Mao, patted Cai Mao on the shoulder, got up and left, and then sat down under a fire to rest. If he wants to go to Xiangyang tomorrow, he must have enough spirit to cope with the next situation.

 Chapter 7

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu woke up just after dawn. He was dressed in a single dress and put on the shelf for morning exercise. Through to later generations, Zhang Xiu accommodated the advantages of hundreds of families, and had a comprehensive understanding of martial arts.


    Now when he was young, his martial arts were not pure. He still needed to practice his martial arts.


    After a full quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiu finished her morning exercise.


    A simple wash, put on clean clothes, Zhang Xiu began to eat breakfast. Zhang Xiu''s breakfast is a bowl of porridge and two cakes. With Zhang Xiu''s appetite today, even five or six more cakes can be eaten, but the army is short of food, and the food is limited.


    When Zhang Xiu had dinner, the soldiers in the army were also having breakfast. These soldiers are pale and thin, lack of nutrition, but now they are eating porridge.


    Zhang Xiu knew clearly that the soldiers saw the hope.


    They have to wait for the good news from Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu knows that his mission to Xiangyang can only succeed, not fail. Because this mission to Xiangyang is not only related to his future development, but also related to the stomach of thousands of soldiers under his command.


    When Zhang Xiu set out, she took Cai Mao with her.


    On the one hand, with CAI Mao by her side, Zhang Xiu has an amulet, which can make Liu Biao avoid the rat. On the other hand, Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family. If he wants to make the Cai family bleed, he has to give orders.


    A group of more than ten people are on their way.


    When the team arrived near the county, it was found by the army stationed in the county.


    Zhang Xiu had Cai Mao in his hand, and the generals stationed in Zao county were on guard. They wanted to attack, but they didn''t dare to attack because of CAI Mao''s safety. There is no way to save Cai Mao.


    Zhang xiudao understood the intention of going to Xiangyang, so the leader opened and closed the door and sent someone back to Xiangyang to report the news.


    When Zhang Xiu went to Xiangyang, it had nothing to do with him.


    The stationed generals let Zhang Xiu pass, and then continued to stay in place.


    After Zhang Xiu passed through the county, the road was smooth.


    The news of Zhang Xiu''s going south to Xiangyang was first sent back to Xiangyang and then to Liu Biao.


    Liu Biao is over fifty years old and is an old man. But he was tall, thin, with a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was very elegant and elegant. Regardless of age, Liu Biao is definitely a gentleman.


    But Liu Biao is sad at the moment.


    Cai Mao is a general in Jingzhou and the head of the Cai family. Cai Mao was captured by Zhang Xiu, and the situation is very unfavorable to him.


    Liu Biao immediately sent for Kuai Liang to come to the prefecture to discuss the countermeasures. Not long after Kuai Liang arrived, he bowed to Liu Biao and said, "I''m a humble Kuai Liang. I''d like to see you."


    Liu Biao waved his hand and said, "zirou doesn''t need to be polite."


    As soon as the words changed, Liu Biao said straight to the point: "I just received the news from Zao county that Cai Mao attacked Zhang Xiu at night and was ambushed, so that the whole army was destroyed. Now, Zhang Xiu is escorting Cai Mao to Xiangyang. What''s zirou''s opinion on this? "


    Kuai Liang frowned at the speech.


    Cai Mao is a Veteran General in the army. How can he chase Zhang Xiu all night?


    Don''t you know that the poor are not to be pursued?


    Kuai Liang stroked his beard under his jaw. After thinking about it, he said slowly, "Lord, since Zhang Xiu escorted general CAI to Xiangyang, he must have come to seek peace."


    "Before that, Zhang Ji led the Xiliang army to invade Nanyang County. What he wanted was only food and grass. Now that Zhang Xiu escorts Cai Mao back, she must want to ask for food from her Lord. "


    "It can be expected that with CAI Mao in her hand, Zhang Xiu will probably open her mouth. However, general Cai Mao''s safety is no problem. What the Lord should consider is how to deal with Zhang Xiu''s big mouth. "


    Kuai Liang said: "Zhang Xiu has hostages. The guild is in a dilemma."


    Liu Biao thought about it and asked, "zirou thinks that Zhang Xiu''s lion''s big mouth is very likely to be what condition?"


    Kuai Liang pondered and said, "the Xiliang army under Zhang Ji can''t stay in Guanzhong. They are short of money and food, so they ask for food. Besides, they also lack a foothold. Judging by her humble position, Zhang Xiu is likely to ask for a foothold. "


    As soon as Liu Biao heard about the site, he suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Cai Mao is in Zhang Xiu''s hands. I can''t refuse. Once Zhang Xiu really wants a site, how to deal with it? "


    Kuai Liang also frowned.


    When it comes to Cai Mao, it''s hard for him to say that no matter his life, Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family.


    In fact, the more we ignore Cai Mao''s life, the more conducive it is to negotiation. Because the premise of Zhang Xiu''s coming to Xiangyang is to use CAI Mao as an amulet. If Cai Mao''s Amulet fails, it means that all the advantages of Zhang Xiu are gone.


    Liu Biao said: "is there no way for zirou?"


    Kuai Liang sighed: "Lord, in my opinion, Zhang Xiu''s conditions are not too tricky."


    "After all, it is impossible for the Lord to accept his offer of unbearable conditions. If you force the Lord to really ignore Cai Mao''s life, Zhang Xiu can''t get out of Xiangyang. "


    "So I think this negotiation will not be too difficult. After all, Zhang Xiu risked her life to come to Xiangyang with sincerity. ""As for Zhang Xiu, it''s not difficult to have a place."


    Kuai Liang said: "to the north of Nanyang County, it is adjacent to Cao Cao''s territory. Just give Zhang Xiu a place to garrison. With the help of Zhang Xiu''s strength, we can also make him resist the attack of Cao Jun for us. "


    "Wonderful


    Liu Biao stroked his beard and nodded, with a smile on his face.


    This is the best strategy.


    Liu Biao thought about it and continued: "when Zhang Xiu comes to Xiangyang, he must show the style and strength of Jingzhou to frighten Zhang Xiu. As long as Zhang Xiu is afraid, she will lose her confidence. In the negotiation, Zhang Xiu is difficult to open her mouth. Therefore, I decided to send people to meet Zhang Xiu. "


    Kuai Liang said: "my Lord is wise. I recommend general wenpin to go. General Wen is highly skilled in martial arts and flexible. He takes a group of soldiers to meet, which is bound to make Zhang Xiu dare not make a mistake. "


    "According to zirou."


    Liu Biao agreed immediately. After all, wenpin was his general.


    Kuai Liang once again said: "Lord, I suggest that when Zhang Xiu arrives, he should not directly negotiate with Zhang Xiu. In addition to let Zhang Xiu see the strength of our Jingzhou, but also let Zhang Xiu see Jingzhou literary talent and celebrities. Only in this way can Zhang Xiu be truly awed and ashamed. "


    Liu Biao said, "what''s zirou''s suggestion?"


    With a smile on his lips, Kuai Liang suggested: "my Lord, you can invite Jingzhou celebrities to join us and hold a banquet for Zhang Xiu. The banquet was full of celebrities and Confucian scholars. It would be hard for Zhang Xiu to get in the way of a martial arts man. There are wenpin general''s military deterrent, and Jingzhou celebrities attack, enough to make Zhang Xiu lose courage. "


    "Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful


    Liu biaoxi smiles and says, "zirou''s suggestion is a good one. It''s the real king''s way to frighten Zhang Xiu with a real celebrity. "


    This strategy is to Liu Biao''s taste.


    Liu Biao said, "zirou, please arrange for wenpin to meet Zhang Xiu."


    "I''ll do it


    Kuai Liang answered and got up to make arrangements.


    At the moment, Liu Biao looks at Kuai Liang''s back and has no worries in his heart.


    Even Liu Biao is full of expectations.


    If a brave man like Zhang Xiu can be subdued and let Zhang Xiu defend the north for him and resist Cao Cao, then Liu Biao will have less serious troubles.

 Chapter 8

    Deng County, located in the southernmost part of Nanyang County, borders Xiangyang.


    At the junction of Deng county and Xiangyang.


    Wenpin leads a hundred soldiers to arrive here, and then gets the message from the sentinel that Zhang Xiu is less than ten li away from him. After receiving the news, wenpin stopped moving forward and stayed in place waiting for Zhang Xiu to arrive.


    Wenpin is from Nanyang. He is nearly 30 years old. He is big and strong with excellent martial arts. Although Cai Mao''s official position is higher than his, but when it comes to the ability to lead the army, Wen pin is far more than Cai Mao and Liu Biao''s most important general in the army.


    Wenpin''s 100 soldiers, all dressed in armour, galloped their horses. These soldiers are veteran soldiers of all wars. They are all over 180cm tall, and they are very strong.


    Wenpin brings soldiers to meet Zhang Xiu. In name, it''s to meet her, but it''s to give her a bad impression. The sunshine in April is warm and comfortable. Wenpin was on his horse, waiting in the sun.


    As time goes by, everyone is waiting.


    "Da! "Da!"


    In front of the official road, suddenly came the sound of horse hooves.


    "General, people are coming!"


    In the army, a school captain began to remind.


    Wen pin, hearing the speech, looked up to the front. He saw a group of people on the official road in front of him. He was driving quickly. Although there are not many people, the trampling of war horses is also full of smoke and dust.


    The distance between the two sides should be shortened rapidly.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than 100 steps, wenpin saw Cai Mao in the crowd. Seeing that Cai Mao was riding on a horse, Wen pin pondered in his heart why Cai Mao did not look for opportunities to ride away.


    As long as Cai Mao escaped, Liu Biao''s situation would be different. In fact, Cai Mao really wants to escape. The key is that under Zhang Xiu''s eyelids, he has no chance at all. He can''t run away.


    When the two sides were ten steps away, Zhang Xiu and his party stopped.


    Wenpin''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. Seeing that Zhang Xiu was outstanding, he asked, "are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I am Zhang Xiu. I went to Xiangyang to pay a visit to Liu Jingzhou. Who are you, sir? Why are you blocking my way? "


    Wenpin said: "I''m wenpin. I''m here to welcome you as ordered by my Lord."


    Zhang Xiu said: "general Wen, lead the way ahead."


    "Take my weapon!"


    Wenpin didn''t take Zhang Xiu''s words. At his command, a soldier handed over a long knife. Wenpin held the sword in his hand and yelled: "Zhang Xiu, you have the courage to go south to Xiangyang. You are a good man. Now, let''s see what you can do to see the Lord


    As the voice fell, wenpin raced out.


    The blade drags backwards on the ground and makes a click. The horse was as fast as lightning. In a flash, wenpin rushed to Zhang Xiu with his sword. His left hand reined in the horse''s reins, and his right hand swung his sword and cut it off.


    "Kill


    There was a sudden explosion.


    The sharp edge of the knife made Zhang Xiu feel cold before she came to her.


    Zhang Xiu straddled on the horse, looking as usual, without any confusion. He clamped the horse''s belly with his legs and held the golden spear of the tiger''s head. With one move, the overlord lifted the cauldron and resisted the knife.


    "Dang!"


    The collision between the blade and the barrel of the gun caused sparks, which made people''s eardrum ache.


    Wenpin cut off, but Zhang Xiu didn''t move.


    The next moment, Wen pin''s hand holding the handle turned, the blade cut out along the direction of the gun tip, straight to take Zhang Xiu''s palm. Just wenpin just had action, Zhang Xiu has made a response.


    Zhang Xiu released her left hand and avoided the blade. She held the end of the gun in her right hand. As soon as the gun was closed, she quickly poked it out and took wenpin''s heart.


    It''s hard to avoid the gun when it''s in the middle line.


    Wenpin was surprised at the speed of Zhang Xiu''s counterattack, but there was no panic. After all, he is a veteran of the battlefield. He leans back and avoids Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Zhang Xiu saw this, with a sneer in her mouth.


    Here comes the opportunity.


    The golden spear in Zhang Xiu''s hand changed again. It seems that wenpin''s action had already been expected, so when wenpin leaned back, the golden spear suddenly fell.


    It''s a forerunner.


    As soon as wenpin made some moves, the golden spear with tiger''s head was just like the gangrene with bones, which made wenpin tired of dealing with it. Wenpin felt numb. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu was so powerful.


    At this age, it''s so powerful.


    Wenpin didn''t have time to think about it. He held the knife in both hands and stood in front of his chest to resist the blow.


    The long gun is like a stick, and it hits the handle hard.


    "Dang!"


    The harsh sound suddenly rang out.


    The majestic power, just like the river of heaven, invades wenpin''s hands holding the knife. At this moment, wenpin''s body was struck by lightning, his palm was numb and painful, and he almost could not hold the sword in his hand.


    "It''s not polite to come but not to go. Take me."


    In Zhang Xiu''s hand, the golden spear of tiger head shakes, and the tip of the spear turns into a little cold light, stabbing wenpin''s heart.


    The tip of the gun nods like a hundred birds in the morning.


    This blow is as fast as thunder.


    Wen pin made a great effort at his waist, jumped up and sat on the horse again. At the moment when the spear stabbed, wenpin swung his knife to block Zhang Xiu''s spear.It''s a pity that Wen pin''s knife was fired, but it was empty. With a burst of air, the tip of the gun stabbed wenpin''s shoulder like lightning, and then brought out a tent of blood.


    Wenpin takes a cold breath in pain, and he is trapped in the secret way. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu is so cunning. He stabs his heart on the surface, but runs to his shoulder with a shot in vain.


    At this moment, wenpin was afraid.


    Reason told him that it was the best choice to withdraw now. However, wenpin is not willing to be cleaned up by Zhang Xiu. Once he retreats now, how can he face Zhang Xiu when he returns to Xiangyang all the way.


    When he returns to Xiangyang, how can he hand over to Liu Biao?


    We must defeat Zhang Xiu!


    Wenpin''s inner thoughts of victory and defeat together, the reason subsided, and only war spirit remained. He clenched the sword in his hand and chopped it to Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hide and beat up her strength to sweep with a gun.


    When the two weapons collided again, wenpin''s face suddenly changed.


    The power of this blow is far greater than before.


    Wen pin''s two hands holding the sword burst, and the sword flew out of his hand. Zhang Xiu''s long gun continued to move forward. With a bang, it hit wenpin hard on the shoulder. Under the impact of the great power, wenpin was directly knocked down.


    "Poof!"


    Wen pin fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    He seemed to fall apart, but wenpin still summoned up his strength and wanted to get up and return to the army. Without waiting for wenpin to move, Zhang Xiu''s long gun has fallen in front of wenpin''s throat.


    Just one inch further forward is enough to penetrate wenpin''s throat.


    "General!"


    In the Jingzhou army, the captain shouts.


    One hundred soldiers galloped forward to prepare to rescue wenpin.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, her eyes were wide open and her momentum soared. She suddenly said, "if anyone dares to take another step forward, he will kill wenpin immediately."


    All the soldiers stopped where they were.


    "Come and take wenpin!"


    When Zhang Xiu gave the order, some soldiers detained wenpin.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu showed a smile at the corner of her mouth.


    With CAI Mao in hand, he has the strength to negotiate with Liu Biao. Now wenpin is challenging. If he catches wenpin again, the negotiation with Liu Biao will be easier.


    Wenpin stares at Zhang Xiu, clenches his fist, and asks: "Zhang Xiu, your martial arts are far better than me. Why are you so clumsy in the first place?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "if I exposed all my strength at the beginning, would you still fight with Ben Jiang? From the beginning, although I pressed you to play, but not too much, you have the hope to win


    "So, you will fight with Ben."


    "You want to beat Benji, even want to take Benji with provocative intention, and then change back to Cai Mao."


    "You''re counting on me, and I''m counting on you."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and said, "only if I hide myself in advance can I catch you unexpectedly. Now, you wenpin is a prisoner, plus a CAI Mao, this trip to Xiangyang is interesting. "


    Wen pin sighed when he heard the speech.


    Zhang Xiu actually hid the art of war in the martial arts contest, and he was not wronged.

 Chapter 9

    If wenpin is arrested, the happiest person is Cai Mao.


    Before that, he was captured by himself. It''s hard for him to face Liu Biao, and he will be incompetent. Now it''s different. General wenpin of Jingzhou is also captured by Zhang Xiu. This doesn''t mean that he is incompetent. He can only say that Zhang Xiu is too cunning and powerful.


    This is Cai Mao''s mentality.


    Dora is the one on the back. After all, the punishment is not to blame.


    When Zhang Xiu takes wenpin, she orders the soldiers to lay down their arms. With wenpin in hand, a hundred soldiers did not dare to resist, so they had to obey and throw away their weapons.


    Zhang Xiu let people take the rope, tied up the hands of wenpin''s soldiers, and then took them to the south.


    When Zhang Xiu went south, the news of wenpin''s arrest first came back to Xiangyang.


    As soon as Kuai Liang got the news, he became nervous.


    First Cai Mao, then Wen pin, Liu Biao''s face will be lost. After he saw Liu Biao, he said: "Lord, wenpin went to meet Zhang Xiu. He wanted to frighten Zhang Xiu by force, but he was captured by Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Biao''s face suddenly changed.


    Cai Mao''s arrest alone has made Liu Biao upset.


    Now there''s another one, which makes me feel bad.


    Liu Biao sighed one after another and asked, "zirou, what do you think we should do now?"


    Kuai liang thought about it and replied, "in the hands of Zhang Xiu, there are two hostages, Cai Mao and wenpin. The most important thing is that both of them are important ministers under the Lord''s command, and they have to be saved. "


    "In today''s situation, we can only negotiate well with Zhang Xiu."


    "But wenpin didn''t deter Zhang Xiu, so he had to rely on the tactics he had made before to show his style of writing in Jingzhou, which made Zhang Xiu feel ashamed."


    "When Zhang Xiu arrived in Xiangyang, the minister went to meet Zhang Xiu on behalf of the Lord. Then, the Lord held a banquet in the prefecture and invited the famous Confucians of Jingzhou to sit down and talk with them. "


    Kuai Liang said: "Zhang Xiu is a martial arts man. Although she is valiant and high spirited, she is a martial arts man after all, so it must be difficult to interrupt. At that time, it can also make Zhang Xiu dare not underestimate me in Jingzhou. "


    Liu Biao said: "this is the only way."


    Kuai Liang said, "I''m going to handle this humble job."


    Liu Biao waved his hand impatiently and let Kuai Liang leave. Today''s situation makes Liu Biao very uncomfortable. He is a great herdsman in Jingzhou. He has a good command of the nine counties in Jingxiang. He is also a strong man in the world.


    But it happened that it was planted in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Not only that, first Cai Mao, then wenpin, two generals in succession fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu, which can be described as a disgrace. Once the news got out, countless people said he was incompetent.


    This is Liu Biao''s least favorite.


    ¡­¡­


    Lumen mountain is located in the southeast of Xiangyang City, bordering on Hanjiang River, facing Xianshan across the river. It is majestic and magnificent, with pleasant scenery. Today''s lumen mountain is a famous mountain in Jingzhou, where many scholars come and go, because the great Confucian Pang Degong and the famous scholar Sima Hui all live here.


    At the foot of the mountain, near the Bank of the river, there is a large bamboo forest.


    In the bamboo forest, a bamboo house was built.


    This bamboo house is backed by the mountain and water. It is an excellent place to visit the magnificent view of lumen mountain and the vast Hanjiang River. In particular, it''s warm in winter and cool in summer. It''s a very comfortable place.


    This is Xu Shu''s home.


    Xu Shu''s real name is Xu Fu. He came from a poor family. In his early years, he was a chivalrous man with a strong sense of justice, and he acted boldly. He avenged his friend, killed him, and was arrested by the government.


    Thanks to the help of friends, he was able to escape the blame.


    After a lot of tribulations, Xu Fu repented and changed his name to Xu Shu. He went to study everywhere, and since then he has been studying hard. When Dong Zhuo came to Luoyang, the world was in chaos. Xu Shu and his friend Shi Tao from the same county took refuge in Jingzhou and lived in lumen mountain.


    In the bamboo house, Xu Shu is drinking tea and chatting with his friends.


    Sitting in the room were Shi Tao of Yingchuan, Meng Jian of Runan and Cui Jun of Boling.


    These three people are not from Jingzhou.


    Xu Shu, Shi Tao, Meng Jian and Cui Jun are all talented people who have read poems and books. Liu Biao even gave an order, intending to recruit four officials, but all four refused without exception.


    Xu Shu took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I went to Xiangyang City yesterday. I heard that Zhang Jinan attacked the county of Ji''an and was killed by Cai Mao with random arrows. However, Cai Mao pursued him all night and was finally captured by Zhang Ji''s nephew Zhang Xiu. Now, Zhang Xiu is escorting Cai Mao to Xiangyang. "


    Shi Tao said with disdain: "although Cai Mao was born in a big family, he was headstrong. It''s not surprising that he was defeated. It''s just good luck for him to lead the army and defeat Zhang Ji. But who could Zhang Xiu have captured Cai Mao with a defeated army? "


    Cui Jun said, "I don''t know this person, either!"


    Meng Jian shook his head and said, "it doesn''t matter who Zhang Xiu is. Even if Zhang Xiu captured Cai Mao alive, it doesn''t mean much. But if Zhang Xiu dares to go to Xiangyang in person, she has some courage. "


    "If you don''t have a little ability, Zhang Xiu doesn''t dare to go south."


    Meng Jian continued: "under the current situation, Zhang Xiu escorts Cai Mao to Xiangyang, which can be called a wonderful move. Zhang Xiu takes the initiative. Liu Jingzhou is in a dilemma. ""That''s the truth."


    Xu Shu said with a smile: "I''m a little curious about what kind of person this embroidery is. Although we have never witnessed the war situation in the county, we can roughly infer it from the information we have got. "


    "Zhang Ji is a general of the Xiliang army. He led his army from Guanzhong to Jingzhou because of the lack of food and intended to rob food in Jingzhou."


    "It can be inferred that Zhang Jijun''s team is not very strong."


    "Zhang Ji attacked the county and was killed by the arrow. The Xiliang army under Zhang Ji''s command was defeated like a mountain. It was already a defeated army and it was hard to fight any more. It could be said that it was a mob."


    "Under such a premise, Cai Mao chased all night. Although he had committed a great military taboo, his soldiers were all elite troops. Even if they were ambushed, they could still fight."


    "However, Cai Mao was finally captured."


    Xu Shu talked about it and said: "from this point of view, Zhang Xiu played an important role in it. It was he who laid an ambush ahead of time and defeated Cai Mao''s army by defeating the strong with the weak. It''s not a simple person who can turn the tide in times of crisis. Just as brother Meng said, when Zhang Xiu went down to the south in person, he had a clear view of the situation in Jingzhou, which shows that her wisdom is not simple. "


    Meng Jian said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi''s words are deep in my heart."


    A sudden sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    An 18-year-old youth strode in, but the young man''s appearance was a little strange, with a high forehead, a flat nose, eight character eyebrows, thick lips, dark complexion, rebellious eyes, giving people the feeling of ugliness and madness.


    His name is Pang Tong, the nephew of Pang De Gong.


    When he saw Xu Shu and others, he bowed his hand and sat down safely. He said with a smile, "brothers, Liu Biao will send someone to deliver a message. Two days later, he will hold a banquet in the prefecture of animal husbandry to invite his uncle and you to go. My uncle agreed to let me inform you. If you want to go, you can go; if you don''t want to, you can stay in lumen mountain. "


    Xu Shu asked, "what happened to the banquet held by Liu Jingzhou?"


    Pang Tong replied, "it''s to welcome Zhang Xiu and let her see the charming style of Jingzhou."


    Xu Shu said: "I know, I will go as promised."


    Meng Jian, Shi Tao and Cui Jun all responded one by one. When they were in Jingzhou, they had to show their face to Liu. They will try their best to participate in Liu Biao''s arrangement, although they will not become officials.


    Pang Tong said: "according to the messenger, Liu Biao sent wenpin to meet Zhang Xiu and was ready to give her a hand. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu captured wenpin and escorted Cai Mao and wenpin to go south together. "


    Xu Shu''s eyebrows were raised and he was surprised.


    Cai Mao''s ability is mediocre, so it''s just that he was captured by Zhang Xiu. Wenpin is a great general in Jingzhou. He has both wisdom and courage, but he was also captured alive by Zhang Xiu. This is shocking, and Xu Shu''s heart is also full of curiosity.


    However, there are not many reports and no analysis. With Pang Tong''s participation, the conversation was even more heated. Several people discussed the current situation together, and the atmosphere was warm.

 Chapter 10

    Zhang Xiu escorts wenpin and Cai Mao to the south, but they are not stopped.


    This road is very smooth.


    Entering Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu looks down on Liu Biao as people come and go. Liu Biao occupied Jingzhou, holding a heavy hand, but only for ease, not enterprising.


    In history, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had a decisive battle in Guandu. Some counsellors Han song and Liu Xian offered advice, hoping that Liu Biao would stand up to support Cao Cao and help Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao. Or, they may join hands with Yuan Shao to attack Cao Cao.


    However, Liu Biao neither supported Cao Cao nor was willing to attack Cao Cao with Yuan Shao. He just sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight. Finally, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao and dominated the north.


    If Liu Biao sends troops, the situation in the north will be completely changed.


    But Liu Biao is happy to be stable.


    In this life, he is not satisfied with the status quo. He not only has to base himself on Nanyang, but also has to annex Jingzhou, and then compete with the rest of the world.


    All the way in a hurry, this morning, a group of people arrived outside Xiangyang City.


    At this time, a tall, handsome and elegant middle-aged man, dressed in a broad collar shirt, was waiting for Zhang Xiu.


    This person is no other than Kuai Liang.


    Kuai Liang is also curious about what kind of person Zhang Xiu is. It''s not that Zhang Xianxiu can catch people first.


    Such people should not be underestimated.


    When Kuai Liang saw Cai Mao and wenpin, he knew that Zhang Xiu had arrived. As soon as he shook his sleeve robe, he took the initiative to come forward. He came to Zhang Xiu in armor and said, "I''m Kuai Liang. At the order of Liu Jingzhou, I come to meet general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "is your name Kuai liang?"


    "Yes


    Kuai Liang replied.


    Kuai Liang is just a little strange. Listening to Zhang Xiu''s tone, he seems to know him, otherwise he would not ask alone.


    Zhang Xiu came back from later generations and knew the situation of the Three Kingdoms like the palm of his hand. Naturally, he knew Kuai Liang. In Jingzhou, except for Pang Degong, Sima Hui, Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Ma Liang and others, Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue brothers of the Kuai family all have the ability to manage the world.


    Liu Biao has a foothold in Jingzhou, and Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue have made great contributions.


    This is a wise man.


    Zhang Xiu''s side, there is no counselor. He wants to recruit Kuai Liang, but now he doesn''t even have a foothold. It''s almost impossible for him to recruit Kuai liang from a noble family.


    Zhang Xiu put her mind down for a moment and said with a smile, "please welcome Mr. Kuai in person, Mr. Kuai."


    Kuai Liang said, "General Zhang, you are welcome."


    At the moment, Kuai Liang also looks at Zhang Xiu. Although the conversation between him and Zhang Xiu is only one or two sentences, it''s not a brave man to see Zhang Xiu''s manners and temperament.


    Kuai Liang cheered up and said, "General Zhang, please follow me into the city."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Kuai, please!"


    "Please


    Kuai Liang waves his hand and leads Zhang Xiu to the city.


    As they entered the city, Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Kuai, I''m sorry to trouble you to settle down the 100 soldiers in wenpin. As for Cai Mao and Wen pin, they are under my care for the time being. "


    "No problem!"


    Kuai Liang nodded.


    As soon as the words changed, Kuai Liang said, "General Zhang is going south to Xiangyang. What do you want?"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hide it, so she said: "my condition is very simple. Liu Jingzhou gave me Nanyang County, and then gave me grain and ordnance to help me get a foothold in Nanyang County. Accordingly, I will release wenpin and Cai Mao, and then defend the north of Jingzhou for Liu Jingzhou against Cao Cao. "


    Brush!


    Kuai Liang''s face was slightly bitter.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu put forward such harsh conditions. This is far beyond the lion''s big mouth. I''m afraid Liu Biao can''t agree to this condition.


    Kuai Liang didn''t answer. He broke away from the topic and said, "I will tell the Lord about General Zhang''s conditions. When formal negotiations are held, consultations will be held. "


    "Lord, tonight, I''ll hold a banquet in the prefecture to help General Zhang clean up the dust."


    "Now, I''ll take general Zhang to live in the prefecture and have a rest. After the dinner, we will have a detailed negotiation tomorrow. What does general Zhang think? "


    Kuai Liang inquires tentatively.


    "Don''t go to the prefecture!"


    Zhang Xiu no doubt said: "the evening reception, this will be on time.". But Ben''s residence is not in the prefecture. I''ll find another inn to live in. "


    It''s too dangerous to live in the prefecture.


    Zhang Xiu can''t do it.


    Kuai Liang didn''t ask for it either. He said, "General Zhang doesn''t want to go to the prefecture. I''m not reluctant. There is a safe Inn near the prefecture. I''ll take general Zhang to it. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Even in Ping''an Inn, people with Liu Biao are better than those in zhoumu Prefecture.


    in fact, in the city of Xiangyang, no matter where Zhang embroidery lives, he can not escape Liu Biao''s eyeliner. As long as it''s not in the prefecture, it doesn''t make much difference anywhere else.Kuai Liang leads the way and takes Zhang Xiu and his party to live in Ping''an inn. After Zhang Xiu stayed, Kuai Liang left with wenpin''s soldiers.


    Cai Mao and wenpin are detained by Zhang Xiu''s people.


    Inn, in the room.


    After Zhang Xiu lived there, he gave an order that the soldiers'' food and water must be bought back from outside. They can''t use the inn to avoid being poisoned.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu called Huang Zhao, who was with her, and said, "Huang Zhao, take two brothers out to inquire about a man named Xu Shu? He studied in lumen mountain and has some reputation. Go and see if you can find his address


    Huang Zhao said, "here


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Huang Zhao turned back.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is full of expectations.


    The reason why he is willing to come to Xiangyang in person is not only to negotiate with Liu Biao, but also to attract talents. Now, Jia Xu is still in Chang''an, so it is difficult for Zhang Xiu to attract Jia Xu.


    Now what Zhang Xiu can think of is Xu Shu.


    As for those like Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, they were only 15 or 16 years old, and they were not old enough to become officials. Moreover, both Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong were born into aristocratic families and had an unusual status.


    Zhang Xiu is in a state of desperation. It''s hard for her to attract Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.


    On the contrary, Xu Shu was born in a poor family.


    It is less difficult to recruit Xu Shu.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu''s goal is to attract Xu Shu first.


    While Zhang Xiu is waiting for news, Kuai Liang returns to the prefecture and reports the news to Liu Biao.


    Liu Biao heard Kuai Liang''s words and knew that Zhang Xiu wanted Nanyang County. He was so angry that he swore. Such a large Nanyang County, all to Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao unbearable.


    After Liu Biao was angry, he looked at Kuai Liang and said in a deep voice: "zirou, Zhang Xiu''s arrogance must be suppressed. At night, he must be deterred. Otherwise, tomorrow''s negotiation will be very unfavorable to us. "


    Kuai Liang nodded his head and said, "don''t worry, my Lord. Pang Degong, Sima Hui, Xu Shu, Cui Jun and Meng Jian all agreed to go to the banquet."


    "Good!"


    Liu Biao stroked his beard and said, "Zhang Xiu is a brave man. He doesn''t understand poetry, music and Fu. He doesn''t understand the general trend of the world. He must be ashamed to see a lot of celebrities pointing out rivers and mountains and reciting poems and Fu."


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Kuai Liang answers.


    But Kuai Liang''s heart was uneasy. Today, I see Zhang Xiu. Although Zhang Xiu has the iron and blood temperament of a soldier, her behavior is neither humble nor overbearing, her speech is extraordinary, and she has the elegant demeanor of a Confucian general.


    Can we use Jingzhou literati to suppress Zhang Xiu?

 Chapter 11

    By noon, Zhang Xiu had not yet heard from Huang Zhao.


    In Zhang Xiu''s memory, Xu Shu had long been in Jingzhou and studied in lumen mountain. In Jingzhou, Xu Shu is very famous.


    It shouldn''t be too difficult to find Xu Shu, but there is no news. I don''t know what happened.


    Zhang Xiu had nothing to do, so she got up and went out of the room and strolled around the inn. He started from the second floor, then to the lobby of the inn, and finally outside the inn. He looked at them all.


    Through investigation, Zhang Xiu determined the location of Liu Biao hidden pile.


    When Zhang Xiu was in the special brigade, she was the strongest soldier. She knew the means of lurking and assassinating like the back of her hand. In Zhang Xiu''s opinion, Liu Biao''s gaze is a child''s play.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t start. She just kept everything in mind and went back to her room.


    "Dong! Dong


    Suddenly, a knock came from outside the room.


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The door was pushed open with a creak, and Huang Zhao bowed in.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Huang Zhao, she raised her heart in an instant. Although Zhang Xiu after experience, already not happy, but now related to his next layout, still some tension, just did not show.


    "Lord!"


    Huang Zhao saluted with his fist.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the situation?"


    Huang Zhao replied, "I have found Xu Shu!"


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a happy look on her face and asked, "where are the people?"


    Huang Zhao said: "in Yunxiang square."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "are you sure?"


    Huang Zhao said: "in the morning, I thought that it was not easy to find Xu Shu in the big Xiangyang City, so I went straight to the gate of the city, paid some money and asked the petty officials stationed at the gate."


    "Xiangyang City people come and go, he is familiar with the situation."


    "According to the petty officials stationed at the gate, Xu Shu entered the city this morning. In the past, Xu would go to the city. So the end will take people to yunxiangfang, after some inquiry, that Xu Shu really in yunxiangfang


    "Yunxiangfang is a place for drinking and listening to music."


    "All the famous people in Xiangyang like to go to yunxiangfang."


    Huang Zhao mentioned yunxiangfang, and his face was full of expectation. He is a rough man in the army, not close to women all the year round. Not to mention the beautiful women in Yunxiang square, as long as they are women, Huang Zhao can look up to them.


    Xu Shu is in yunxiangfang, and Zhang Xiu is bound to go. Therefore, he wanted to follow Zhang Xiu and go to yunxiangfang to see the gorgeous beauty.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "Xu Shu is in yunxiangfang. I''m going to visit him now. You stay in the Inn and guard Cai Mao and wenpin. When these two people are here, we will have food and land. If they are robbed, everything will become a mirror. You stay and stare at them. "


    Huang Zhao sighed in his heart. After he agreed, he asked, "general, who is Xu Shu? It''s worth visiting in person. Just go and catch him. "


    "You?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "you can''t do it."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "Xu Shu is just like Li Ru to Dong Zhuo. Do you understand?"


    "I see!"


    Huang Zhao opened his eyes and immediately nodded.


    He was born in the Xiliang army and knew Li Ru. He was Dong Zhuo''s confidant counselor.


    Zhang Xiu waves Huang Zhao to leave, takes some money and leaves the inn. On the way out of the inn, he noticed that someone was following him.


    For Zhang Xiu, it''s a three-year-old''s trick.


    At the corner, Zhang Xiu suddenly accelerated forward, and then around a few twists, then threw off Liu Biao''s spies. After inquiring about the situation of Yunxiang Fang, Zhang Xiu went straight to Yunxiang Fang.


    Yunxiangfang is located in the center of Xiangyang City.


    There are women playing the piano, and there are many celebrities drinking and talking.


    After entering, Zhang Xiu called for the waiter, gave him a little money, and inquired about Xu Shu''s appearance, clothes and position. Xu Shu is on the second floor, drinking and chatting with friends.


    The second floor of yunxiangfang is very open and elegant. Behind yunxiangfang is a lake dug out. Sitting on the second floor by the window, you can enjoy the scenery of the lake.


    Now it''s April, the weather is fresh, a group of white geese floating on the lake, and lotus leaves are blooming, the scenery is pleasant.


    After Zhang Xiu ascended the second floor, she swept her eyes and saw Xu Shu. Instead of disturbing him, he went to a table behind Xu Shu and sat down, drinking tea while listening to Xu Shu''s conversation.


    At the moment, Xu Shu, Meng Jian, Cui Jun and Shi Tao are sitting together chatting.


    The four talked about the general trend of the world.


    This is the normal way to chat.


    In today''s era, there is no television, no network, and few entertainment projects. Most of them just sit back and talk about the general trend and what they think.


    Shi Tao, with an air of self-confidence, said: "now in this world, the Xiliang troops in Chang''an attack each other and kill each other. Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Liu Bei in Xuzhou, and Yuan Shu in Yangzhou occupy one place respectively, but they are not enough. In my opinion, yuan Shaohu is the only one in Jizhou. With the foundation of four generations and three princes, he has become the climate. I''m afraid it''s Yuan Shao who''s going to end this mess. "Today, Cao Cao''s strength is still very weak.


    Especially not long ago, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao betrayed Cao Cao and welcomed Lv Bu into Yanzhou, which greatly damaged Cao Cao''s vitality. Even if Cao Cao defeated Lu Bu, his strength was weakened a lot.


    Today, Cao Cao is hard to attract attention.


    With a smile, Cui Jun analyzed: "Jizhou is rich in fields, but it has not encountered any major war. It can be said that it has plenty of food and grass, and a full supply of troops."


    "Under Yuan Shao''s command, there were powerful generals such as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, intelligent generals such as Zhang Yan and Gao Lan, together with a group of counsellors such as Tian Feng, Xu you and Ju Shi. They could be said to be courtiers and military generals."


    "No matter from which aspect, Yuan Shao has the greatest potential."


    "I''m also optimistic about Yuan Shao," Cui said


    Meng Jian nodded and said, "there is some truth in what you have said. But in my opinion, the most important thing is that Yuan Shao is enterprising. Unlike our Liu Jingzhou, we only focus on one mu and three parts of Jingzhou. "


    Everyone''s opinion is unanimous and optimistic about Yuan Shao.


    Xu Shu sat on one side, nodded from time to time, but did not speak.


    He heard about the battle of hulaoguan.


    As the leader of the 18 princes, Yuan Shao could not control and restrain them. It can be seen that although Yuan Shao was born well, his ability was not very strong.


    A leader, without the ability to control his subordinates, is temporary even if he has a good foundation.


    The other vassals can''t tell the difference.


    Therefore, Xu Shu has not made a conclusion.


    Zhang Xiu listens to several people''s comments and knows that now is the best time to interrupt. After taking a sip of tea, he stood up and shook his sleeve robe. Then he went to Xu Shu and his hands closed to the ceremony. He said with a straight face: "it''s admirable that you can talk about the general situation of the world and point out the country. But according to the analysis of several members, I have different suggestions. "


    Xu Shu said with a smile, "what advice do you have?"


    For friends, Xu Shu is not too many.


    As long as there is a talented person, he doesn''t mind listening to the other party. In particular, when someone interrupts and refutes this kind of sit and talk, he is also willing to listen.


    Zhang Xiu replied: "in terms of the current situation analysis, Yuan Shao has the background and strength of Yanzhou, and really takes the lead. But in my opinion, Yuan Shao can only stay in power for a while, not for a lifetime. He only had the first hand, and then all the heroes came together, and the princes vied for the best. Yuan Shao would be eliminated. "


    "Interesting."


    Xu Shu says: "young master, please sit down and say."


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu lifted up her robe and sat down with a calm look.


    Xu Shu continued: "as the saying goes, the reason is not clear. Since the young master has different views, it''s right to say it in detail. How do you base your point of view? "

 Chapter 12

    Zhang Xiu is neither humble nor overbearing, calm, said: "I judge Yuan Shao will be eliminated, there are three reasons."


    "First, Yuan Shao''s internal instability."


    "When you were chatting just now, you mentioned a very important point. There are a lot of talents under Yuan Shao."


    "Indeed, Yuan Shao has tiger generals such as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, as well as wise generals such as Zhang Yan and Gao Lan, as well as counsellors such as Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Xu you, Shen Pei, Xin Ping, Tian Feng and Ju Shi. He is full of talents."


    "Regardless of the generals, only the officials."


    "The judge is just and upright, and Xu you is greedy. They are enemies to each other, and they both look at each other unfavorably. Tian Feng was upright, Guo TU was aggressive, and the two sides were antagonistic. Others have their own positions and contradictions. "


    "The important officials attacked each other, but Yuan Shao let it go."


    "The three keys are the right time, the right place and the right people. But Yuan Shao''s people are selfish. When they come across something, they don''t solve it first, but attack each other. "


    "This situation only increases internal friction."


    Zhang Xiu continued to say, "second, yuan shaochong dotes on his young son and does not like his eldest son."


    "There are three sons under Yuan Shao''s knee, the eldest son Yuan Tan, the second son Yuan Xi, and the third son yuan Shang."


    "Among the three sons, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi led the army and each had real power. Although yuan Shang was a small man, he inherited his love under Yuan Shao''s knee. Yuan Shao liked his youngest son most and intended to make him his successor. "


    " if you want to establish a successor, you should establish a direct leader, headed by Yuan Tan. It''s a pity that Yuan Shao is after Yuan Shang. "


    "Behind Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, there were supporters."


    "The so-called supporters were Yuan Shao''s advisers, so that three factions were formed under Yuan Shao."


    "If it is in peace and prosperity, the three sons will fight for power. But now it''s a time of great struggle. The vassals are fighting with each other, but Yuan Shao''s faction is numerous, criticizing each other and seizing power. "


    Zhang Xiu''s analysis is advancing step by step.


    First, Wen Chen is unstable and increases internal friction.


    Second, the struggle for the third son further intensified the internal struggle.


    With a look of approval, Xu Shu said, "your analysis does have some truth, but it''s not the most important. What''s the next third point?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "third, Yuan Shaogang is headstrong and has no way to control the situation."


    "In a power, what the Lord wants most is the unity of his ministers. But the last thing the Lord wants to see is the unity of his subordinates. "


    "It''s contradictory, but it''s realistic."


    "Because the Lord needs his subordinates to check and balance each other in order to control the situation."


    "Yuan Shao''s officials, acting on their own, attacked each other. Maybe it was Yuan Shao''s intention. He wants to divide the officials, so that people can''t be united, so that he can weigh and manage


    "The key is that Yuan Shao did not have the means to control his subordinates."


    "He didn''t choose the right plan for strategic layout, marching and national affairs? It depends on which side there are more people, and which side we stand on. "


    "On the surface, Yuan Shaoguang''s way of speaking is in fact resourceful and self willed."


    "Even if Yuan Shao is intelligent and has a good foundation, he can''t make a decision at a critical time and can''t control the attack of his subordinates, which is the key to his future defeat."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "do you think so?"


    "Wonderful, really wonderful."


    Xu Shu took the lead in praising and said with emotion: "one or two arguments can only be regarded as throwing a brick to attract jade, which is nothing."


    "The third point is the finishing touch."


    "Just as the young master said, Yuan Shaogang was headstrong and unable to control his subordinates, which was the root of his failure. If Yuan Shao can control his subordinates, then the fight below will only follow the direction of Yuan Shao''s guidance and will not lead to major events. "


    "But if Yuan Shao can''t control it, it will certainly lead to disaster."


    Xu Shu looked very happy.


    He felt that when he met his confidants, Cui Jun, Meng Jian and Shi Tao, they all thought that Yuan Shao could achieve great things, but he didn''t express his position because he thought that Yuan Shao could not achieve great things in the end.


    Cui Jun frowned and said, "is Yuan Shao really so incompetent in controlling his subordinates? Do you have any definite information? "


    Meng Jian echoed: "after all, Yuan Shao is a hero, so he is not so incompetent. Moreover, there is no basis for words. What you have just said is just your opinion, not necessarily true. "


    Two people retort, Zhang Xiu gently smile.


    It''s not a problem.


    Zhang Xiu did not answer immediately, but looked at Xu Shu and asked with a smile, "what''s your name?"


    Xu Shu said: "Yingchuan Xu Shu, Xu Yuanzhi!"


    Zhang xiuhan said: "Mr. Xu agrees with me. He must have some judgment. I don''t know. How did Mr. Xu think about it? "


    As for Zhang Xiu, Meng Jian, Cui Jun and others don''t care much. Although these people are talented, they can at least serve as the prefect of a county. But today''s Zhang Xiu doesn''t need them.


    Zhang Xiu only cares about Xu Shu.Xu Shu shook his robes and said slowly: "in fact, the judgment is very simple. The 18 princes were elected as the leader of the alliance. However, Yuan Shao held on to the great interests of the alliance leader, but he could not balance the parties, which eventually led to the collapse of the alliance. It can be seen that Yuan Shao''s ability to control his subordinates is really average. "


    "The 18 road princes have their own thoughts and policies. In the same way, Yuan Shao''s three sons and counsellors all have their own thoughts and actions. "


    "There are some differences, but they are similar."


    Xu Shu said confidently, "this is my judgment. What do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Xu''s insight is admirable."


    Cui Jun, Meng Jian and Shi Tao were stunned. They all laughed bitterly. They are all smart people. As Xu Shu said, Yuan Shao used to be unable to control the 18 road princes, but now he is also unable to control his descendants and advisers.


    The situation is different, but it is similar.


    Xu Shu was very fond of Zhang Xiu and said: "the remarks made by the young master are brilliant. I''m a talented man. I''m sure I''m not an ordinary person. May I have your name


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m Zhang Xiu!"


    Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "is the young master Zhang Xiu from Xiliang?"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Xu Shu laughed and said, "we all think that general Zhang is a reckless man. I didn''t expect that general Zhang was so wise. He was Xu Shu''s prime minister. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Xu has been praised falsely."


    Xu Shu continued: "General Zhang escorts Wen pin and Cai Mao to Xiangyang. He dares to go out to play alone. Isn''t General Zhang afraid that they will be robbed?"


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and replied: "since I dare to come out to play, I have made all kinds of preparations. We are not afraid that Liu Biao will rob people, but we are afraid that Liu Biao will not take action. Liu Biao has taken action, which is conducive to my next negotiation. "


    Xu Shu thought for a while, eyes bright, praised: "so, general Zhang playing in the city, is deliberately, is to lead the snake out of the hole."


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s just easy to do it."


    As a matter of fact, Zhang Xiu is really easy to do. This time, he came out mainly to attract Xu Shu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to beat around the Bush and said, "when I was going south to Xiangyang, I sent someone to inquire about Xiangyang. Among the information sent back by the spies is about Mr. Xu. Mr. Xu has the ability to manage the world. Today, I was lucky to meet Mr. Zhang. He asked Mr. Xu to become an official and serve as a military adviser. "


    When this remark came out, everyone changed color.


    Xu Shu is the same, the expression is very surprised, did not expect Zhang Xiu so direct, just met, directly solicit.

 Chapter 13

    Xu Shu was stunned for a moment, then he came back to himself.


    He raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "General Zhang said just now that I know the news, I''m sure I have the talent to manage the world. I don''t know how much general Zhang knows about me


    In Xu Shu''s opinion, Zhang Xiu''s praise may be official. It is said to be understanding. In fact, it is not. It is just knowing Xu Shu.


    If so, Xu Shu will not become an official.


    Zhang Xiu gave a cool smile and said, "as far as I know, Mr. Xu is from changshe County, Yingchuan. His original name is Xu Fu. He is a chivalrous and righteous man. His goal is to be a chivalrous Ranger."


    "In his early years, Mr. Xu avenged his friends, but he was caught by the officials and nearly killed."


    "After being rescued by a friend, Mr. Xu changed his name to Xu Shu, so he put aside his weapons and sticks to study. When the vassals attacked Dong Zhuo, the Central Plains was in chaos, and Mr. Xu and a group of friends went south to Jingzhou to seek refuge. "


    "Throughout Mr. Xu''s life experience, it can be divided into two stages for the time being."


    Zhang Xiu talks without fear.


    Since Xu Shu wanted to ask, it showed that Xu Shu had the intention to understand. He wanted to speak out.


    No matter what Xu Shu thought after listening to him, or even whether the things he explained were right or wrong, it didn''t matter. The most important thing is that through these expositions, Zhang Xiu can express her understanding of Xu Shu.


    He wanted to attract Xu Shu, not aimlessly.


    At the moment, Xu Shu''s eyebrows were raised. He was really surprised.


    Zhang Xiu knows him so well.


    If Zhang Xiu had not made up her mind to be ready to solicit, she would not have such well prepared remarks. Xu Shu''s mind turns and suddenly thinks of meeting Zhang Xiu here.


    I''m afraid it''s not an accident.


    Most likely, it was Zhang Xiu who found out his whereabouts that led to this "chance encounter.".


    The general asked, "what is the next stage of Xu shunshi''s career?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "in the first stage, we should use Wu Mingzhi!"


    "When he was young, Mr. Xu advocated force and chivalry. He wanted to use his personal force to eliminate evil. Even so, they want to use their martial arts skills to reach the princes and then show their ambitions. "


    "In the second stage, they abandoned martial arts and became literate."


    "When Mr. Xu saved people and was captured, he almost suffered an unexpected accident. Only then did he realize that solving the problem by force was the next policy. Even if you are born with divine power, even if you are brave enough, you don''t know how to plan, and you don''t know the art of war. A martial arts man can''t do anything in front of officials. "


    "So, sir, I devote myself to study."


    "As the saying goes, those who work hard govern others, and those who work hard govern others. If you want to show your ambition, you must read. Only when we have the ability to run a country and to March and fight, can we display our ambition and help the country. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''m going to have a glimpse of the leopard in my eyes. I''ll make you laugh."


    Xu Shu is a person who is not happy or angry. But after hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, he was shocked again. He listened to Zhang Xiu''s words, every sentence seemed to be analyzing him.


    Zhang Xiu really knows him.


    He did go through these two stages.


    The first stage is willful and chivalrous. All problems are solved by force.


    In the end, it failed.


    Nowadays, they devote themselves to the study of knowledge with the intention of relying on their own talents to help the world and save the country.


    At this moment, Shi Tao, Meng Jian and others were also shocked. They are friends with Xu Shu for many years. It''s normal to know Xu Shu''s situation and understand Xu Shu''s mind.


    It''s amazing that Zhang Xiu, such a wild man in Xiliang, even knows Xu Shu.


    Is this still a boor?


    For a moment, the atmosphere was dignified.


    And all eyes fall on Xu Shu. Whether Xu Shu will become an official or not depends on Xu Shu''s decision.


    Xu Shu took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and said: "what general Zhang said is right, but now general Zhang is in a hurry to escape from Chang''an. He doesn''t even have a foothold. General Zhang, how do you stand? "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "Nanyang County, is not this general''s foothold? I have wenpin and Cai Mao in my hands, and I can defend the north for Liu Biao. Liu Biao has no reason to refuse me. In the end, it depends on how far we can go. "


    After hearing this, Xu Shu did not hesitate.


    Zhang Xiu is indeed weak, but Zhang Xiu is not a rash man, has enough vision and pattern, which means that Zhang Xiu has the potential to rise. The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu understands him.


    As the saying goes, a scholar dies for a confidant.


    Xu Shu is willing to be loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    He stood up, folded his hands, saluted Zhang Xiu 90 degrees, and said: "Xu Shu, I''d like to see you."


    Zhang Xiu was overjoyed. He also stood up and said with a smile, "please get up, sir. I''ll get your help. From then on, it will be nine days of flying and the dragon will enter the sea."


    Xu Shu said, "my Lord, I praise you falsely."Zhang Xiu motioned Xu Shu to sit down, looked at Shi Tao, Meng Jian and others, and said with a smile, "these three are good friends of Mr. Shi Tao, Meng Jian and Cui Jun. If the three are willing to become officials, Zhang Xiu will wait for a vacant seat. "


    Shi Tao said with a smile, "thank you General Zhang for your kindness. I have no idea of becoming an official."


    Meng Jian and Cui Jun also declined.


    Xu Shu''s loyalty to Zhang Xiu was Xu Shu''s decision. They couldn''t manage it and would not interfere. But they are not optimistic about Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu is as worried as a lost dog.


    As soon as Shi Tao''s words changed, he said, "Yuanzhi, if you think you are going to be an official, there must be many things to talk about. I''ll leave."


    Meng Jian and Cui Jun also left one after another.


    Xu Shu got up to see him off and said, "wait a minute, three of you


    After the three left, Xu Shu and Zhang Xiu sat down again. Xu Shu looked solemn and asked, "what kind of purpose does the Lord want to achieve when he goes south to Xiangyang to negotiate with Liu Biao?"


    Zhang Xiu also did not hide, directly said: "my goal is to the north of Wancheng, under my jurisdiction."


    "Wancheng!"


    Xu Shu thought for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Wancheng is located in the north of Nanyang County. Although it belongs to Liu Biao, Liu Biao''s control is not strong. Let Liu Biao give up the territory to the north of Wancheng, he will agree. What I am afraid of is that the Lord wants to take the opportunity of negotiation to annex the whole Nanyang County. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "Nanyang County and Xiangyang border. If I control the whole Nanyang County, Liu Biao will be attacked on the back. Even if I have Cai Mao and wenpin, he will not agree."


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m weak now. I have to go step by step. It''s good to win the territory north of Wancheng. "


    Knowing Zhang Xiu''s plan, Xu Shu settled down and said, "in the evening, Liu Biao will hold a banquet, and there will be celebrities and scholars from nine counties of Jingxiang to attend. They are all people with outstanding literary talent. Liu Biao''s intention is to suppress the Lord. Does the LORD have a way to deal with this? "


    With a flash in her eyes, Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Biao wants to frighten me, but I don''t know that this may also be an opportunity for Zhang Xiu to become famous in the whole nine counties of Jingxiang. Everyone thinks that Zhang Xiu is a valiant man. After the banquet in the evening, it''s different. "


    When Xu Shu heard the speech, he suddenly thought of Zhang Xiu''s extraordinary insight.


    This is a man with a strategic mind.


    How can such a person be deterred because of his limited cultural association.


    This time, Liu Biao miscalculated.

 Chapter 14

    After a talk with Xu Shu, Zhang Xiu was even more sympathetic. Many of their views coincide. At the end of the conversation, Zhang Xiu didn''t take Xu Shu back to the inn.


    This time he came to solicit Xu Shu, and did not reveal his whereabouts, which means that Liu Biao did not know that Xu Shu had surrendered to Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Xu Shu is Zhang Xiu''s trump card.


    As for Cui Jun, Shi Tao and others, Zhang Xiu believes that they are not talkative people.


    After they parted, Zhang Xiu quietly returned to the inn. As soon as he appeared in the inn, he found the man watching. He went straight back to his room. After seeing Huang Zhao, he asked, "has anything happened since I left the inn?"


    "No!"


    Huang Zhao answered and asked, "did the general go to solicit Xu Shu, and have any results?"


    "Everything goes well," said Zhang Xiu


    "Congratulations, general, Congratulations!"


    Huang Zhao immediately congratulated him.


    He was ordered by Zhang Xiu to inquire about Xu Shu. From others, he learned that Xu Shu was a talented man. Such people are willing to submit to Zhang Xiu, which is very helpful to them.


    Zhang Xiu asked Huang Zhao to be busy, sitting alone, thinking about what might happen in the evening.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was evening.


    Zhang Xiu changed into a splendid dress, with a sword hanging on her waist and a long crown on her head, and went out of the inn. When Zhang Xiu went to the prefecture, she still didn''t take Huang Zhao with her. Instead, she went alone, leaving Huang Zhao to detain wenpin and Cai Mao.


    Zhang Xiu has gone to the prefecture. It''s not clear whether Liu Biao will send someone to rob people, but we must take precautions.


    Liu Biao sent someone here, and Zhang Xiu was happy to see it.


    As long as Liu Biao starts first, Zhang Xiu will have a point of view at the negotiation table tomorrow.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu got out of the inn, he saw Kuai Liang coming. He took two quick steps, went up and said, "Mr. Kuai!"


    Kuai Liang replied, "general, please follow me."


    Zhang Xiu follows Kuai Liang and goes to the prefecture. Arriving at the gate of the prefecture, Zhang Xiu stops and looks at the prefecture. Liu Biao''s Prefecture is elegant, unique, grand and magnificent, which is quite magnanimous.


    Kuai Liang continued to go inside, but Zhang Xiu didn''t go any further.


    Kuai Liang stopped and said, "General Zhang, why did you stop?"


    Zhang Xiu smile, light way: "the guest arrived, Liu Jingzhou must also put on airs, do not come out to meet?"


    When Kuai Liang heard the speech, he saw a light in his eyes.


    He knows Zhang Xiu''s insistence.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, although the strength is weak, not even a county, but Zhang Xiu is alone in charge of an army. From this level, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao are in equal position.


    When Zhang Xiu arrives, Liu Biao should greet her in person.


    Kuai Liang''s expression remained unchanged and explained: "General Zhang, there are already guests arriving. My Lord is now entertaining guests in the hall. What''s more, my Lord has asked me to welcome him with all my power, and general Zhang will follow me in the same way. "


    Zhang Xiu snorted and turned to leave.


    He doesn''t talk to Kuai Liang at all.


    This time, Kuai Liang panicked.


    Now it is Zhang Xiu, not Liu Biao, who holds the initiative. After all, Zhang Xiu still has two hostages. Once angered Zhang Xiu, today''s Wen Hui will lose its meaning.


    Kuai Lianglian said: "General Zhang, wait a minute!"


    At this moment, Kuai Liang deeply realized that Zhang Xiu is not easy to cheat.


    Zhang Xiu stops, turns around and looks at Kuai Liang without saying a word. The more he was like this, the more he let Kuai Liang feel helpless. Kuai Liang had to be soft and said, "General Zhang, just a moment. I''ll go to inform the Lord immediately."


    Zhang Xiu said strongly: "let Liu Jingzhou hurry up. If I neglect Ben Jiang, I will go back to the Inn by myself. As for Cai Mao and Wen pin, they will be taken away together. I came to Jingzhou with sincerity. If he doesn''t have sincerity, let it go. "


    "Don''t worry, general. I''ll tell you."


    Kuai Liang should be down, is a burst of gallop, to the prefectural Prefecture.


    In the hall, there are banquets.


    Liu Biao, wearing a broad collar shirt and a Jin Xian crown, sits high on the throne and chats with the guests who have arrived.


    Liu Biao is looking forward to the banquet tonight.


    He wants to take this as a deterrent to Zhang Xiu.


    Before listening to the attendant reply, said Kuai Liang led Zhang Xiu on the way, Liu Biao more excited. All of a sudden, Liu Biao heard a rush of footsteps coming from outside the hall.


    He looked up and saw Kuai Liang with a bright smile on his face. But the smile on Liu Biao''s face was frozen before it was finished, because he only saw Kuai Liang, not Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao''s brows wrinkled at once.


    Not long after, Kuai Liang went to Liu Biao''s side and whispered: "Lord, when Zhang Xiu arrives at the door, he won''t enter. He had to be welcomed by the Lord himself before he would enter the prefecture


    Liu Biao is in a bad mood.


    He is a state pastor, Liu''s family, even to meet Zhang Xiu in person, too much. Although Zhang Xiu captured Cai Mao and wenpin alive, in Liu Biao''s eyes, the Xiliang army like Zhang Xiu was like a vagrant.Liu Biao said in a low voice, "zirou, go and tell Zhang Xiu that I can''t leave. You are the one who has the full authority to receive him. Make sure you bring him in. "


    Kuai Liang said: "my Lord, once you are in a humble position to persuade Zhang Xiu to leave, there is no way."


    Liu Biao''s heart should be broken.


    He deliberately did not meet Zhang Xiu in person, just to show his identity. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu asked him to meet her. Liu Biao also can''t let Zhang Xiu leave, otherwise the plan can''t go on.


    In desperation, Liu Biao had to say hello to everyone and took Kuai Liang out.


    Soon, Liu Biao came to the gate.


    Kuai Liang pointed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, this is general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu took the initiative to say, "I''ve met Liu Jingzhou!"


    Liu Biao said with a smile: "General Zhang is young and promising. He is handsome and natural. He is really a good son."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Liu Jingzhou has been praised falsely."


    When he saw Liu Biao''s appearance, he couldn''t help praising him. Liu Biao''s ability is not very good, but his appearance is elegant. Now that Liu Biao is old, we can imagine how handsome he was when he was young.


    Liu Biao waved his hand and said, "General Zhang, there are many guests here. Please follow me in."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Liu Jingzhou, please!"


    Just as they were ready to enter, a carriage came slowly and stopped at the gate of the prefecture.


    Liu Biao glimpses the belly of the horse, knows who the guests are, and stops his steps. With a soft look, he said, "General Zhang, you''ll come with zirou first. How are you?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s OK. I also want to see who can let Liu Jingzhou meet me personally."


    At this time, the curtain of the carriage door rolled up.


    A young man is the first to walk out. He has a high forehead, a flat nose, eight character eyebrows, thick lips, dark complexion, and rebellious eyes. He wears a black robe on his body, which gives people the feeling that he must show his edge.


    This is Pang Tong.


    His appearance did not arouse Liu Biao''s action.


    The next moment, an old man came down.


    This man was dressed in coarse linen, gray hair, tall, a thin cheek, with a faint smile.


    This man is Lord pound.


    Pang''s family in Jingzhou is headed by Pang Degong. Although pound did not become an official, he had a high reputation in Jingzhou and was deeply loved by scholars.


    Liu Biao bowed his hand to see the ceremony, and pound also replied.


    Zhang Xiu hears Liu Biao''s address to Pang Degong, knows Pang Degong''s identity, and then thinks of Pang Tong''s appearance. He recognizes Pang Tong. Zhang Xiu has no stage fright and takes the initiative to say: "I''ve met Pang Gong before."


    Pang Degong said with a smile: "General Zhang is young and promising, and I have heard about him. When I saw it today, it was really extraordinary. "


    Pang Tong followed Pang Degong and looked at Zhang Xiu. When he was in lumen mountain, he learned that Zhang Xiu had captured Cai Mao alive, and that Zhang Xiu had captured wenpin alive. He was very curious about Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Pang Gong has been praised falsely."


    When Liu Biao saw Pang Degong talking to Zhang Xiu, he was not happy. He immediately said, "Pang Gong, general Zhang, please come inside!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu nodded and asked Pang Degong to take a step first, then quickly catch up with Liu Biao and go to the hall together.

 Chapter 15

    When you enter the hall, the guests and guests will be seated.


    Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu, one left and one right, sit at the top of the hall.


    Mr. pound took the first seat on his left. The rest of the guests got up one after another. Soon after Pang Degong took his seat, many Jingzhou celebrities, such as Sima Hui, Huang Chengyan, Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and Cui Jun, also arrived.


    People, almost here.


    Seeing that the table was almost full, Liu Biao glanced over the crowd and said, "I''m very honored to have you here for dinner. In Jingzhou, because you are here, you have Jingzhou''s elegant style of writing and its charming style of writing. "


    With these words, Liu Biao''s face was full of pride.


    In Jingzhou, there are Pang Degong, Sima Hui, Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang and so on.


    This is the inside story of Liu Biao.


    Although these people do not belong to Liu Biao, they are still in his jurisdiction.


    Liu Biao ordered to go down, there are attendants in. The attendants served drinks and delicacies one by one in front of each guest. Liu Biao filled his bottle with wine, picked up the bottle and said, "everyone, come and have a full drink."


    Everyone raised their glasses.


    After a glass of wine, Liu Biao takes a glance at Zhang Xiu, then looks at Kuai Liang and nods.


    Kuai Liang got up from his seat and said with a smile, "the Lord is giving a banquet in the prefectural Prefecture tonight. On the one hand, it''s for general Zhang xiuzhang


    "On the other hand, I would like to take this opportunity to invite you all to have a chat, to talk about the general trend, to talk about poetry, to recite poetry and Fu together."


    "According to the old rules, we still make friends by writing."


    "If you have any new poems, you can read them in public. If the Lord is here, and Pang Gong and Sima Hui are here, they will comment one by one. "


    Kuai Liang said with a smile, "it''s also a great fun."


    This word a, Zhang Xiu understood to come over.


    This is to bully him.


    In the world''s impression, Zhang Xiu was born in the Xiliang army, is the army''s clay leg son, do not understand ink, not poetry. Just imagine that all of you here are learned scholars and quick witted people. They are all talkative. If Zhang Xiu can''t get in the way, he will be on pins and needles.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth was filled with a faint smile, and her expression was neither humble nor overbearing.


    He was not afraid of Kuai Liang''s proposal.


    Not afraid of Liu Biao''s calculation.


    Liu Biao''s all kinds of plans can only be his stepping stone.


    Xu Shu sat opposite Zhang Xiu, rather worried about her. Although Zhang Xiu is good at military strategy, she knows more about the general situation of the world. However, he was worried that Zhang Xiu was not good at poetry and Fu.


    Pang Tong also stares at Zhang Xiu.


    He is also extremely curious about Zhang Xiu.


    Others, when chatting, glanced at Zhang Xiu from time to time, looking at her reaction. Besides Zhang Mu, not everyone can embroider poems.


    Many people, with the mentality of going to the theatre.


    "Can has a poem. Please comment on it."


    Suddenly, a frail, ordinary looking, short young man came out. The young man''s appearance is very common, only not ugly. His age is about twenty. Although the youth looks ordinary, but a pair of dark eyes, but bright incomparable, very God.


    His name is Wang can.


    In history, Wang can was one of the seven sons of Jian''an.


    Wang can, whose name is Zhongxuan, is a native of Shanyang County. His great grandfather once served as Taiwei, and his grandfather once served as Sikong. When Wang can was young, he was appreciated by Cai Yong and had a talent for a long time.


    Later, Wang can''s family went south to Jingzhou to rely on Liu Biao.


    Unfortunately, the person Liu Biao likes has at least two qualifications.


    First, talent.


    Second, look outstanding.


    Although Wang can is talented, his appearance is not good. Although Wang can lives in Jingzhou and has Liu Biao to provide him with food and clothing, he is not appreciated by Liu Biao and cannot enter the official career.


    Liu Biao said: "what are Wang Zhongxuan''s poems? Do as much as you can


    "Here it is


    Wang can said with a smile: "my poem is a poem I wrote a few days ago when I missed my hometown. Everybody, please listen to me


    After a pause, Wang can read aloud.


    "Jingman is not my hometown. What''s the reason for long-term obscenity?"


    "When the ark goes back to the river, I am worried about my heart at dusk."


    "The hills have more than one shadow, and the rocks are more than one shadow."


    "The fox goes to the cave, the bird flies to the forest."


    "The sound of flowing waves is clear, and monkeys and apes sing near the shore."


    "When the wind blows, the White Dew touches the skirt."


    "If you can''t sleep alone at night, you can take care of your clothes and play the piano."


    "Si Tong is sentimental and makes a sad voice for me."


    "There is no end to travel, but it''s hard to be worried and strong."


    Wang can shakes his head and reads the latest poem. After he finished reading, he arched his hand and said, "gentlemen, please correct the axe."After hearing this, Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    This poem by Wang can is very interesting.


    Because the meaning of this poem is that it is difficult for him to show his ambition. Wang can is a scholar. He came to Jingzhou when he was young. He heard that Liu Biao wanted to show his ambition.


    However, when he arrived in Jingzhou, he was left idle.


    Wang can expressed his anger with the help of poems. In his poems, the description of scenery one after another contains strong feelings, which also increases the embodiment of Wang can''s inner feelings.


    Especially in the beginning, a "jingman" highlights its charm.


    If Jingzhou is good, Wang can will not use such words.


    Zhang Xiu knows Wang can. He knows that Wang can is not valued by Liu Biao. It''s estimated that this meeting is about venting. In Zhang Xiu''s heart, he wants to attract Wang can and use it for himself.


    Wang can''s ability is not the best, but his talent is not weak.


    Such people can handle logistics.


    Zhang Xiu suppresses Wang can''s mind and looks at Liu Biao''s face. At the moment, Liu Biao''s face was a little overcast, because Wang can''s words just hit him in the face.


    However, Liu Biao did not attack in the end.


    Kuai Liang saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he didn''t let anyone comment on it. He immediately got up and asked Wang can to return to his seat. Then he digged off the topic and wrote a poem on his own initiative.


    Kuai Liang''s poems praise Liu Biao.


    After Kuai Liang, Cui Jun, Shi Tao, Yi Ji, Kuai Yue and others wrote poems and fu one after another. Jingzhou''s literati displayed their talent and style.


    Liu Biao praised these people without stint, and his expression was very soft.


    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    At this time, the atmosphere became more intense. Liu Biao''s eyes finally fell on Zhang Xiu. Most of the people attending the banquet have already recited poems and Fu, but Zhang Xiu has not yet attended.


    Liu Biao said with a smile: "General Zhang, everyone is involved. Why don''t General Zhang write a poem? Although this is to make friends by writing, the emphasis is on participation, regardless of the quality of writing. "


    In the words, some people are not optimistic about Zhang Xiu.


    In Liu Biao''s opinion, Zhang Xiu is just a reckless man. He said that he didn''t care whether Zhang Xiu''s poems were good or bad. In fact, what Liu Biao thought in his heart was that he was afraid that Zhang Xiu could not even write poems.


    Therefore, Liu Biao looks forward to Zhang Xiu''s withered appearance.


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Jingzhou, I''m not suitable to participate in this kind of cultural club. In my opinion, how about listening to your poems and Fu? "


    When Liu Biao heard this, he was even more pleased.


    This time, Zhang Xiu is going to die.


    Liu Biao leaned forward slightly and said, "as I said just now, the emphasis is on participation, regardless of the quality of poetry. If general Zhang has any poems, just read them out for you to appreciate. You are welcome, general Zhang. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed and said, "since that''s the case, I''m sorry. Today, when Zhang went out to drink and enjoy the beautiful scenery in yunxiangfang, he felt something when he saw the scenery. He happened to have two poems

 Chapter 16

    Just as Zhang Xiu''s voice fell, a burst of wild laughter suddenly rang out from the hall.


    The laughter suppressed the words of the people.


    The laughter is full of disdain.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows wrinkled. Her eyes followed the sound and fell on the smiling man. This man is eight feet long, with a long sword eyebrow and an extraordinary appearance. He is in his early twenties, handsome and elegant.


    Zhang Xiu clearly remembers that his name is Li Heng.


    Before he entered the hall, Liu Biao introduced you.


    Zhang Xiu also knows about you Heng.


    You Heng is a young man with talent and fame. He is proud of his talent. His eyes are higher than the top. No one will pay attention to him. When it comes to poetry and Fu, you Heng is really outstanding. But this person''s EQ can''t even reach the pass line.


    In history, he was recommended by Kong Rong and served under Cao Cao. However, he looked down on Cao Cao, wantonly humiliated Cao Cao, did not give Cao Cao face, Cao Cao was finally thrown under Liu Biao.


    After entering Jingzhou, when he was under Liu Biao''s command, he thought Liu Biao was incompetent and humiliated wantonly. Finally, Liu Biao threw him under the command of Huang Zu of Jiangxia, and let him serve in Jiangxia.


    When he was under the command of Huang Zu, he still had old problems. He humiliated Huang Zu everywhere and was executed by Huang Zu.


    Such people are talented but incompetent.


    At this moment, you Heng stood up, holding up his head, with a look of arrogance at Zhang Xiu, disdaining to say: "you Zhang Xiu, an ignorant man, dare to claim to have two poems?"


    "Could it be that children''s poems are not successful?"


    "It''s not to underestimate you. With your ability, if you can write poetry, it''s really a joke."


    You Heng tone arrogant, said: "if I were you, I would find a place to hide, will not show up, so as to avoid self humiliation."


    The atmosphere suddenly changed.


    Sima Hui, Pang Degong, Xu Shu and others have long been aware of Liu Biao''s intention, that is, Liu Biao wants to suppress Zhang Xiu with the help of literary society.


    It''s just that no one has revealed it.


    You Heng stood up and broke this situation.


    Liu Biao also sees that you Heng is not happy on weekdays, and he already has the idea of throwing you Heng under the command of Huang Zu in Jiangxia. Now when I listen to you Heng''s words, I feel very happy and comfortable.


    You are arrogant, but also useful.


    Liu Biao didn''t show what he thought on his face. He stopped and said, "you Heng, don''t be rude to General Zhang. Since general Zhang said there were two poems, why don''t you let him finish? "


    You Heng is not a person with high Eq.


    He will never be soft on what he thinks. Even if Liu Biao says something, it still doesn''t work.


    You Heng held up his head, with an expression of insistence on his own opinion, and said, "Zhang Xiu, such a rude man, should not attend the literary conference. Liu Jingzhou, you are also a blunder. Is it because I''m old and my brain is not clear. Even dogs and cats can enter such a big Prefecture at will. You''re making a mess of a good Wen Hui. It''s not polite. "


    Liu Biao''s mouth twitched slightly.


    This is you Heng.


    If such a person opens his mouth, it will be an indiscriminate attack.


    Liu Biao heard what you Heng said. Although he was angry, he didn''t have much anger because he needed you Heng to attack him. Only the indiscriminate attack of you Heng can prove that Liu Biao did not instruct you Heng to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao, with a helpless look, sighed: "General Zhang, you Heng is upright and doesn''t know how to change. Although he is a knife mouth, he can''t help his words. That''s not his original intention. "


    "You don''t have to explain, Liu Jingzhou," he said. I just look down on Zhang Xiu and think that Zhang Xiu is not suitable to attend the conference. What''s the face of such a man standing in the hall? "


    "Ha ha ha What a joke. "


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, stood up.


    He saw through the dialogue between Liu Biao and you Heng.


    Liu Biao did not instruct you, because Liu Biao could not instruct you. However, Liu Biao determined his temperament and knew that he would come out to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao comforted Zhang Xiu, but he did it on occasion.


    In fact, Liu Biao wants to suppress Zhang Xiu.


    All this, Zhang xiuxin like a mirror.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention to Liu Biao any more. Her eyes fell on you Heng. She looked calm, but coldly said, "you Heng, people say you have talent and fame. At the first sight today, Zhang Xiu was disappointed. It''s better to meet her than to be famous. "


    "What do you mean?" he asked


    Zhang Xiu replied: "Ben Jiang said that he wrote two poems, but before you heard them, he said that I couldn''t do them. People like you who judge people by their appearance are just looking down on others. "


    On hearing this, you Heng laughed twice and said, "if you are Zhang Xiu, you can make a decent poem. I''ll kill myself here today. "


    The words are fierce and the actions are extreme.


    Zhang Xiu sneered.


    This kind of person, you Heng, doesn''t give yourself any way back. He is headstrong and resourceless.


    It''s too easy to deal with such people.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you are going to make a poem, at least a good one, you don''t need to kill yourself. You just need to learn three barks in front of everyone. When I see Zhang Xiu later, I will give up. How about that? ""Good!"


    If you don''t even think about it, just answer it.


    He still held his head high and said, "if you can do it, the sun will come out in the West."


    Zhang xiudao: "try to know."


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu took a look at Liu Biao, with a smile in her mouth.


    This smile made Liu Biao''s heart burst. Liu Biao didn''t believe that Zhang Xiu could make any poems. He could see Zhang Xiu''s expression and had a bad feeling in his heart.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Suddenly, at this time, someone spoke again.


    Another stood up.


    His name is Yi Ji, a confidant of Liu Biao. Yi Ji was born in Shanyang County of Yanzhou. He was not only a native of Liu Biao, but also a good friend of Liu Biao.


    He stood up, arched his hand and said, "General Zhang, I''m from Iraq."


    Mr. Zhang Yi said, "I have a gift."


    Yi Ji said slowly: "General Zhang and you Heng bet. If general Zhang wins, you Heng should not only learn to bark three times in front of everyone, but also retreat when you see General Zhang again."


    "You will agree to the terms put forward by general Zhang."


    "But what if the two poems made by general Zhang failed to satisfy the public and reach the standard?"


    Yi Ji began to ask questions.


    Liu Biao nodded slightly, appreciating Yi Ji''s reaction. It''s a very good entry point.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what does Mr. Yi mean?"


    Yi Ji said, "if general Zhang fails to write two poems, please hand over Cai Mao and wenpin."


    "That''s funny."


    Zhang Xiu heard the speech and sneered twice.


    Yi Ji said, "what does general Zhang laugh at?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "what I''m going to laugh at is that Mr. Yi is really good at changing concepts, and his ideas are naive. The bet between Ben Jiang and you Heng is a matter between Ben Jiang and you Heng. "


    "But it''s up to Liu Jingzhou. If this will win, you Heng will pay the price, but Liu Jingzhou will not be affected at all. If you lose, Liu Jingzhou gains, and you Heng doesn''t get any benefits. "


    "It''s not fair to gamble."


    "Since Liu Jingzhou wants to participate in gambling, I have no opinion."


    "But the conditions have to be changed."


    "If I lose, I agree to hand over Cai Mao and wenpin. But if I win, Liu Jingzhou will have to put Nanyang County under his command. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were burning. Instead of looking at Yi Ji, she looked at Liu Biao and said in a deep voice, "Liu Jingzhou, do you dare to gamble?"


    Brush!


    Liu''s face was suddenly dignified.


    Just now, Liu Biao was very glad that he could have a chance to suppress Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, in a twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu threw the problem back and let Liu Biao decide.


    For a time, Liu Biao was in a dilemma.


    If he agrees to Zhang Xiu''s terms, he has a chance to win back Cai Mao and wenpin, but if he loses, the consequences will be serious. Especially today''s Wen Hui is in front of Jingzhou celebrities. He can''t go back.


    He didn''t agree and was timid.


    Whether he agrees or not, Liu Biao is in a bit of a dilemma.

 Chapter 17

    Seeing that Liu Biao was in an awkward situation, Kuai Liang quickly stepped forward to ease the atmosphere and said with a smile, "General Zhang, it''s a national event when it comes to the ownership of Nanyang County. We can''t make fun of it."


    Liu Biao was relieved.


    At least someone eased the atmosphere and gave him a step down, so Liu Biao said: "what zirou said is reasonable. It''s a little frivolous to gamble on such a big Nanyang County with two poems."


    Zhang Xiu hummed a voice, strong way: "since can''t afford to gamble, why talk?"


    "This man from Iraq is an official of Jingzhou."


    "Yi nationality represents you, Liu Jingzhou."


    "Yi Ji, in front of all of you, is about to give up the general. If he loses, he will hand over Cai Mao and Wen pin. Cai Mao and Wen pin are both great generals in Jingzhou. "


    "Not only that, but also Cai Mao is the head of the Cai family."


    "Either of these two men can reach the land of a county."


    Zhang Xiu''s words were sharp, without the slightest step back. She said forcefully, "can wenpin and Cai Mao not even reach Nanyang County? If so, I''m afraid these two people will be too cheap. "


    Those who deceive others will always be deceived.


    If Yi Ji wants to please Liu Biao and suppress Zhang Xiu, he has to bear the consequences of Zhang Xiu''s counterattack.


    Even if this is Xiangyang, Liu Biao''s territory, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    Anyway, Zhang Xiu has wenpin and Caimao in hand. Moreover, Liu Biao always cherishes feathers. Even considering his own reputation, he can''t do it in Jingzhou.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu has no scruples.


    After listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, Liu Biao''s face changed. He was very helpless. He was rejected by Zhang Xiu.


    At this time, Liu Biao began to blame Yi Ji.


    It''s all because Yi Ji has nothing to do with it.


    And now he''s in a dilemma.


    Yi Ji at the moment, Leng in situ, for a time do not know how to deal with. He originally meant that he wanted to run on Zhang Xiu to make her bet, and then earn wenpin and Cai Mao back. He didn''t expect that she eventually became like this.


    Fortunately, Yi Ji is a bit quick witted.


    He stepped forward and said, "General Zhang, Miao Yi, although I am an official of Jingzhou, what I said just now only represents me, not the Lord."


    "Besides, I''m just a assistant official, and I can''t represent the Lord."


    "Since you don''t approve of the gambling just now, Yi Ji will change the way of gambling. You Zhang Xiu wrote two poems. Yi Ji is willing to imitate you Heng. If you lose, the dog barks three times. "


    "If you don''t understand the two poems that Zhang Xiu wrote, please ask general Zhang to release Cai Mao and wenpin."


    Yi Ji throws ground to have a voice way: "you, dare to meet?"


    This, the embarrassment of Liu Biao down.


    Liu Biao''s heart, finally relieved, looked at Zhang Xiu, looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s response.


    What if ejie wins?


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said with emotion: "if you learn to bark three times, you can exchange Cai Mao and wenpin. It''s really interesting. Mr. Yi Ji, you are also a famous person in Jingzhou. How can you have such a bad brain? "


    Yi Ji said: "do you dare to gamble?"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, way: "just, anyway this will be a steady win.". Since you''re willing to bark like a dog, Ben won''t mind. Your terms should have been made. "


    Yi Ji said, "please!"


    You Heng is also arrogant, waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, there were people in the theater, such as Sima Hui, Pang Degong and Pang Tong; there were nervous people, such as Liu Biao and Kuai Liang; there were also people who cared about Zhang Xiu, and that was Xu Shu.


    With both hands on her back, Zhang Xiu walked slowly and said: "Ben Jiang''s first poem is on the floor of Yunxiang square. Seeing that there are white geese floating in the pond outside the window, she wrote a poem about white geese, which is called" chanting geese "


    " geese, geese, geese! "


    First three words, direct point.


    But when these three words came out, there was a roar of laughter in the hall.


    The expression on Liu Biao''s face was slightly twitching, which made him laugh a little. He is very regretful in the heart, early know Zhang Xiu on this ability, he should promise to bet. In Liu Biao''s opinion, we don''t need to listen to the poem behind Zhang Xiu at all. Just by the first sentence of the opening chapter, we can judge that Zhang Xiu has lost.


    Xu Shu''s heart is also hanging in the air.


    He is Zhang Xiu''s military adviser. Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s expression was determined, he held great hope for her. But at the moment, also by Zhang Xiu make nervous.


    You Heng said with a wild smile: "it doesn''t matter, it doesn''t matter! Zhang Xiu, you can admit defeat. "


    Yi Ji aggressive, said: "Zhang Xiu, admit defeat!"


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is very calm. She doesn''t pay attention to you Heng and Yi Ji. She continues to read.


    "Song to heaven;


    " white hair floating green water! "


    "Red palm, green wave!"


    After reading a poem, Zhang Xiu said, "ladies and gentlemen, please comment on it?"There was silence in the hall.


    All people look at Zhang Xiu''s eyes, are very strange, that look is incredible.


    How is that possible?


    How could Zhang Xiu form such a simple and clear poem when she started with the word "goose, goose, goose".


    Although this poem is simple and clear, there are images of geese, sounds of geese, colors of geese and dynamics of geese in the poem. After a poem, the image of geese is on the paper.


    This poem is of top quality.


    Zhang Xiu saw that all of them were dumb and shocked. She turned to look at you Heng and said again, "you look so low. Here, would you like to comment on it? "


    Li Heng is very upset in his heart. He is sure that Zhang Xiu will lose. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu turns over. You Heng also knows that this song "chanting the goose" is very classic. This time, Zhang Xiu won.


    However, you Heng did not admit defeat.


    He clenched his fist and said: "Zhang Xiu, this is the first song. As you said, it''s two poems. The first song "chanting geese" is for you to pass. What about your second poem? "


    Yi Ji said: "General Zhang, go on."


    Zhang Xiu was not polite, so she continued: "the second poem of Ben Jiang is also in yunxiangfang. In the pool outside the window of yunxiangfang, there are lotus leaves blooming, green trees and dragonflies flying, which is a beautiful scene. Therefore, Ben will write a song "Xiao Chi."


    "The spring is silent, cherishes the stream, the shade of the tree shines on the water, and loves the sunshine and softness."


    "The lotus has just shown its sharp corners, and a dragonfly has been standing on it for a long time."


    After reading directly, Zhang Xiu said, "this is Ben Jiang''s Xiao Chi. Please comment on it."


    When people heard the words, they all changed color.


    Compared with the simple and straightforward of the first song "Yong goose", this song "Xiao Chi" is more wonderful. The word "cherish" changes the life of the spring and the flowing water, and turns ruthlessness into affection. The word "love" gives the willow life to its full display with the help of the pool surface. In the third and fourth sentences, "Cai Lu" and "zaoli" echo one after another, making the picture vivid.


    Xiaochi, a poem, is fresh and natural, but it has infinite charm.


    Yi Ji Gudong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked very embarrassed. He said: "I, I, I..."


    It''s hard to say what you say.


    On the contrary, it was you Heng. After several changes in his expression, he hummed: "this time, I lost!"


    "Woof, woof, woof!"


    After three barks of the dog, he brushed his sleeve, turned around and walked out of the hall, no longer attending the banquet.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Yi Ji.


    Previously, Yiji fell into the well.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu wants to see how Yi Ji will do it.


    For the so-called life to stay a line, good to meet in the future, Zhang Xiu is sniffing. To be strong is the foundation of a foothold. If you are not strong, everything is in vain.


    Therefore, when Yi nationality falls into the well, Zhang Xiu will not return good for bad, what he advocates is straight for bad.


    Tooth for tooth, blood for blood!


    This is the nature of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 18

    All eyes fell on Yi Ji.


    At the moment, Yi Ji is also extremely embarrassed. Anyway, he is a famous scholar of Jingxiang, but now, he has to bark in front of Pang Degong, Sima Hui and Liu Biao. That''s a shame.


    But he couldn''t refuse.


    Because it''s a bet he signed.


    Zhang Xiu stared at Yi Ji and said with a smile, "Mr. Yi Ji, you Heng has practiced the gambling agreement. Now it''s your turn. I don''t know what you''re going to do? "


    "I, I..."


    Yi Ji''s expression changed again and again.


    His heart, extremely tangled, very reluctant to learn to bark in public, this thing spread out, he lost a big shame.


    Zhang Xiu shrugged and said, "what am I? There is a big difference between "I" and "Wang". Of course, if Mr. Yi is not willing to practice the gambling agreement, he will not be reluctant. "


    He said that he was not reluctant, but he made progress by retreating.


    If Yi Ji really does not practice gambling, it is tantamount to trampling on his own reputation and reputation.


    Yi Ji had no way to go back. He bit his teeth and said, "Wang! Woof! Woof He barked three times in a row, and his face turned red. He quickly said, "my Lord, I don''t feel well in my humble position. I''ll leave first."


    Then he left.


    Everyone knows that ejie can''t stay any longer.


    You Heng and Yi Ji left one after another.


    Zhang Xiu''s sleeves trembled and returned to the table calmly. At the moment, when people look at Zhang Xiu, they have a dignified look in their eyes. They no longer dare to underestimate Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu is not a reckless man.


    Although he is a general, he is full of talent.


    Xu Shu sat in the back, looking at what happened in the hall, with a faint smile on his lips. He has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu has both advantages and disadvantages. The more powerful Zhang Xiu is, the more happy Xu Shu is.


    He is so happy to see Liu Biao.


    At the moment, Liu Biao''s mood is also a little low.


    You Heng and Yi Ji are his subordinates. They lose face, and Liu Biao feels shameless.


    Liu Biao is not reconciled.


    He pondered in his heart that Zhang Xiu was very good at poetry and Fu, so he stopped mentioning that he could write poetry and could talk about other aspects. Liu Biao turned his eyes and suddenly asked, "General Zhang has been in Guanzhong. He must know the situation in the north. I don''t know what''s going on in the north? "


    This open mouth inquires, public''s vision, converges to Zhang Xiu body again. Just now, people have seen Zhang Xiu''s ability in poetry and Fu. Now they are curious one by one. They want to see Zhang Xiu''s judgment on the situation.


    With a confident smile, Zhang Xiu said: "what can happen in the north is just a chaotic word. Today Zhang San kills Li Si, tomorrow Li Si kills the old Wang next door You kill me, I kill him. It''s a cycle. It''s nothing unusual. "


    Liu Biao was overjoyed to hear Zhang Xiu''s explanation.


    Zhang Xiu is wrong.


    The essence of the so-called "chaos" has not been clarified.


    Liu Biao stood up, looked down at Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, the situation in the north is not what you said. Today, Yuan Shao is respected in the north. He was born in the yuan family, and his subordinates are like rain, and his generals are like clouds. No one can defeat him in the north. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she sneered in her heart.


    Liu Biao wants to show off, but he finds the wrong person, because there are flaws in Liu Biao''s words.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to refute immediately, but he had an idea. He restrained his mind to refute immediately, turned to Pang Tong and said, "are you Pang Shiyuan?"


    "Yes


    Pang Tong replied with a smile.


    After entering Jingzhou, I heard that Pang Tong had the name of fengxiao, and she was very knowledgeable. Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the situation in the North today?"


    Pang Tong took a look at Liu Biao and said, "Liu Jingzhou''s judgment of Yuan Shao is not wrong."


    Zhang Xiu smiles, turns to Zhuge Liang and asks, "are you Zhuge Kongming?"


    "Exactly!"


    Zhuge Liang also nodded to answer.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I heard that Zhuge Kongming had the name of Wolong in Jingzhou. He was more knowledgeable than Guan zhongleyi. Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the situation in the north?"


    Zhuge Liang, less than 20 years old, was still very young, but he was very careful. Like Pang Tong, he said, "I agree with Pang Shiyuan. Liu Jingzhou is right in judging Yuan Shao."


    At the moment, Liu showed a proud look.


    One by one, they all agreed with his judgment. Zhang Xiu lost her hair this time.


    Zhang Xiu, however, looked at Sima Hui and asked, "Mr. Sima, what''s the situation in the north?"


    Sima Hui stroked his beard under his jaw and replied, "when I came to Jingzhou, I studied behind closed doors. I seldom understood the external situation, but I didn''t know much about the situation in the north."


    Zhang Xiu did not ask. She looked at Pang Degong and asked, "Pang Gong, how do you see the situation in the north?"


    At this time, Pang Degong had already understood Zhang Xiu''s intention, but he was not willing to mix right with wrong, and said: "I''ve been living in seclusion in lumen mountain, and I don''t know about the situation in the north."Both Sima Hui and Pang Degong avoided answering.


    This situation makes Liu Biao feel bad.


    What''s going on?


    The situation in the north is very simple. How can everyone avoid answering. Fortunately, both Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong agreed with him, which made Liu Biao feel at ease.


    At this time, Zhang Xiucai looked at Liu Biao and said, "Liu Jingzhou, what do you think when you hear the answers from Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Sima Hui and Pang Degong?"


    Liu Biao said, "they all agree with me."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu burst into laughter.


    Liu Biao asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Xiu, why are you laughing?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "what I would have laughed at is that Liu Jingzhou took the initiative to ask questions, but your answers were not right. Yuan Shao really occupied Jizhou. He had numerous generals and was the most powerful vassal in the north. "


    "But is this the situation in the north?"


    "No!"


    "The whole north is a mess, a mess."


    "Yuan Shao is the leader of Jizhou. Did he capture Youzhou?"


    "No!"


    "Did Yuan Shao capture Bingzhou?"


    "No!"


    "Not to mention, Liangzhou, Guanzhong, Yanzhou, Qingzhou and other places farther away were not included in Yuan Shao''s command, but were occupied by various princes."


    Zhang Xiu raised her voice and said: "Gongsun Zan of Jixian County killed Liu Yu and captured Youzhou; Yuan Shao of Hebei Province killed Han Fu and captured Jizhou; Li Yi and Guo Si killed Wang Yun and occupied Guanzhong."


    "The whole North, you kill me, I kill him, are fighting each other."


    "Isn''t that a word for chaos?"


    Zhang Xiu said forcefully: "Liu Jingzhou said Yuan Shao was powerful, which is right, but this is not the situation in the north. That''s why Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong only said that your judgment of Yuan Shao was correct, but they did not mention the situation in the north. Now, do you understand? "


    Brush!


    Liu Biao''s face has changed greatly.


    After hearing Zhang Xiu''s retort, he understood that he was too excited to explain clearly, which led to lifting a stone and hitting his feet.


    His intention was to show off his understanding of Yuan Shao. Unexpectedly, his answer deviated from the question. He said that Yuan Shao is the strongest, which is true, but he forgot that Jizhou controlled by Yuan Shao is only a corner of the north, which can not represent the whole situation of the north.


    This is the breakthrough of Zhang Xiu.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a rapid voice came from outside the hall.


    A soldier came running fast.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s soldier. He enters the hall and comes directly to Zhang Xiu. He whispers.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s face cooled down.


    He waved the soldiers back, stood up and said sarcastically, "well, Liu Biao, on the surface, he has the intention of taking over the wind and washing the dust, but on the surface, he has sent someone to attack the inn to take back wenpin and Cai Mao. Your means are too low. "


    Liu Biao suddenly confused!


    He just wanted to suppress Zhang Xiu, but he didn''t send anyone to rob wenpin and Cai Mao. As soon as Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, she gave him a big black pot, which was too unfair.

 Chapter 19

    Liu Biao is also in a hurry.


    If the big black pot of robbing Wen pin and Cai Mao is taken down, what do the scholars in Jingzhou think of him and what do the scholars in the world think of him?


    He can''t admit it.


    Liu Biao looked around and saw that all the celebrities attending the meeting were staring at him. He quickly explained, "General Zhang, I guarantee by my personality that I have never sent anyone to rob wenpin and Cai Mao."


    Zhang Xiu was unreasonable and sneered: "personality guarantee? How much is personality worth? Can it solve the war? There are countless people who do whatever they can for the sake of their interests. "


    "As soon as I come back to Xiangyang, I come here with great risk and sincerity."


    "You arranged my place. And this residence, close to the prefecture, is under your eyes. Who has the courage? Dare to make trouble near the prefecture


    Zhang Xiu said forcefully: "Liu Jingzhou, you put me near the prefecture''s animal husbandry government, deliberately clearing your suspicion. Then, send someone to rob Wen pin and Cai Mao. This is your plan. It''s a thief calling to catch a thief. "


    Liu Biao''s face was black with anger.


    He really didn''t send anyone.


    He would like to take out his heart to explain, but it is difficult for him to explain the current situation.


    Seeing that Liu Biao had been attacked, Kuai Liang stood up and said, "General Zhang, the inn has been attacked. It''s hard for anyone. No conclusion can be reached until the facts are investigated. When you say that the Lord is crying out to catch a thief, you can stand from the perspective of the Lord. You can''t say that you are the one who planned to frame the Lord


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "what a joke."


    Kuai Liang''s expression was calm, and he said, "what I said just now is just a possibility. In my opinion, when something happens, the first thing to do is to investigate the situation, not to blame each other and shirk responsibility. What does general Zhang think? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the investigation is necessary, but you just said that Ben would be planted and framed, but Ben would not agree. Because this time, I''m the least suspect. "


    Kuai Liang said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "Ben Jiang had been in Guanzhong before. He had never been to Jingzhou and was not familiar with Jingzhou. Before entering Nanyang County, it was a helpless move. Now when I come to Xiangyang, I make a hasty decision. "


    "On the premise that I am not familiar with Xiangyang, I want to mobilize people under Liu Jingzhou''s eyes, and then attack the inn. I don''t have the strength. You said that I planned it. It''s bloody. "


    "Mr. Kuai, I respect you. That''s why I explained it."


    "But Jingzhou up and down, too bullying people."


    Speaking of the excitement, Zhang Xiu raised her voice and said in a loud voice, "when I was going south with CAI Mao, Liu Jingzhou sent a general to meet me. It''s a welcome, but in fact it''s a threat to the general. "


    "In the end, Ben will take wenpin."


    "After arriving in Xiangyang, Liu Jingzhou said that he would hold a banquet for me. However, as a guest, when I came to the gate of the prefecture, I learned that Liu Jingzhou was too busy to meet him. "


    "It''s rude of you to give me a banquet and not welcome me."


    "When we arrived at the hall of Zhou Mu Fu, the banquet began, and Liu Jingzhou instructed the famous people under his command to make provocations with the literary society, intending to suppress me. Thanks to Ben''s reading some poems and books over the years, you Heng and Yi Ji were defeated. "


    "Now they''re attacking the inn again."


    Zhang Xiu''s words are sharp, and her momentum is more and more powerful. She says with a strong sense: "what happened before, I would have thought about it. After all, I came to discuss political affairs, and I don''t want to cause trouble."


    "But such things happen again and again."


    "Instead of repenting, Liu Jingzhou said that he planned it himself. It''s against morality to push his nose on his face like this."


    "From the beginning, Ben will come with sincerity."


    "From the very beginning, you Liu Jingzhou harbored malice."


    "It''s up to you who is right and who is wrong."


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said, "Liu Jingzhou doesn''t want peace talks, so Zhang Xiu doesn''t care. Liu Jingzhou, this will take people to leave, and let the peace talks go. If you want to kill me, you can immediately mobilize the army and kill me in Xiangyang. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu turned around and went out.


    His eloquent words caught Liu Biao off guard. Liu Biao did not expect that the situation would evolve into such a situation.


    Especially in front of so many people.


    Sima Hui, Pang Degong, Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and Cui Jun are all famous people in Jingzhou. But now he Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu in front of the public, scolded a bloody.


    What a shame!


    Liu Biao clenched his fist, and a sense of obliteration passed in his eyes. But in a flash, the sense of obliteration dissipated completely.


    He dare not kill Zhang Xiu.


    You can''t kill Zhang Xiu.


    At this time, Sima Hui got up and said slowly, "Jing Shenggong, Sima Hui has something to do with himself. Goodbye."


    Pang Degong, Pang Tong and others also left one after another.


    The banquet broke up in discord.


    The hall was soon empty, leaving only Kuai Liang, Wang can and the rest of Liu Biao''s subordinates.These people are confused.


    Did not expect, will evolve into such a shape.


    Liu Biao, with a gloomy face and a look of choosing people, scolded: "who, who is it, without my consent, will arrange people to do it?"


    Under the bombardment of Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao thinks that it is the people under his command.


    All of them shook their heads.


    "No one?" Liu Biao asked


    "No!"


    All of them answered.


    Liu Biao''s expression was gloomy and asked: "Zhang Xiu has left. What do you say?"


    Kuai Liang stood up and replied, "Lord, since it''s not our man, Zhang Xiu is suspected."


    "Even if Zhang Xiu''s words are solid, they can''t get rid of the suspicion."


    "I suggest you wait and see what happens first."


    Kuai Liang finally said: "the most urgent task now is to arrange people to investigate the case. Find out which party attacked the inn. "


    Liu Biao also nodded, agreed with Kuai Liang''s analysis, and ordered: "zirou, you deal with it immediately. Tonight, I want to get a clear result. "


    "Here it is


    Kuai Liang bowed his hand to reply.


    ¡­¡­


    Not far from the prefecture, Pang''s house.


    Pang Degong lived in seclusion in lumen mountain, but Pang family was a big family in Jingzhou. Pang family also had a large number of industries and houses in Xiangyang City. It''s evening now, and the gate has already been closed. I can''t get out of the city any more.


    So Pang Degong, Sima Hui and Zhuge Liang all lived in Pang''s family.


    In the hall, all the guests and hosts took their seats.


    A group continued to chat over tea.


    Looking at Pang Tong, Pang Degong inquired, "a lot of things happened tonight, but without exception, they all happened around Zhang Xiu. Shiyuan, what do you think of Zhang Xiu? "


    Pang Tong replied: "Zhang Xiu is not only good at marching and fighting, but also has brilliant literary talent and quick mind. He is not an easy-going person because he attaches equal importance to both culture and martial arts. Zhang Xiu''s disposition and determination are quite to my taste. I like it. "


    Pang Tong was quite rebellious since he was young.


    That''s what he''s got.


    The performance of Pangzhou embroidery in Zhang Mu Tong is very appreciated.


    Without judging Pang Tong, he looked at Zhuge Liang and asked, "what do you think, Kongming?"


    Zhuge Liang dressed in a white robe, handsome and unrestrained, said without delay: "throughout the performance of Zhang Xiu at night, he is a man skilled in calculation. If Zhang Xiu is a simple Wufu, it''s no problem to act as a barrier to the north of Jingzhou. But Zhang Xiu handles things like an old fox. His foothold in Jingzhou is not the blessing of Liu Jingzhou. "


    "What Liu Jingzhou does has nothing to do with us. We are just analyzing the situation. "


    Pound made a summary.


    He also agreed with Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang''s analysis. At the conference, Zhang Xiu''s performance was brilliant. Under the guidance of Pang Degong, people expressed their views on Zhang Xiu and discussed the situation in Jingzhou.

 Chapter 20

    Ping''an inn.


    When Zhang Xiu returned, there was a corpse soaked in blood at the door of the inn. After a cursory scan, Zhang Xiu found nine bodies on the ground, each dressed in black.


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu enters the inn.


    When he came to the second floor and saw Huang Zhao, Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?" When she was in the prefecture, Zhang Xiu was informed by the soldiers that although someone attacked the inn, Cai Mao and Wen pin were still in her hands.


    Zhang Xiu is not clear about the details.


    Huang Zhao replied: "soon after my Lord went to the prefecture, a group of black people rushed to the inn. As soon as they enter the inn, they will come to our direction on the second floor. "


    "We have few people, we can only defend."


    "There are many people on the other side. They are all tough people. They were killed upstairs in a short time. Under the attack of the other side, we couldn''t stop it very quickly. In desperation, he put his sword across Wen pin''s and Cai Mao''s necks and made a gesture of dying together. "


    "I didn''t expect it to frighten each other."


    "In the end, the other side retreated."


    Huang Zhao, with a look of lingering fear, said, "if the other side hadn''t taken wenpin and Cai Mao into consideration, I''m afraid they would have been killed."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "is there no living one?"


    Huang Zhao shook his head and said, "no!"


    After a pause, Huang Zhao said, "although he didn''t catch a living person, there is also a discovery."


    Zhang xiudao: "what discovery?"


    Huang Zhao picked up a bow and arrow from the nearby table and handed it to Zhang Xiu. He solemnly said, "Lord, this is the bow and arrow used by the other party. Every arrow has a mark on it. "


    Zhang Xiu looked carefully.


    On the arrow, there is a character "Liu". The word "Liu" obviously refers to Liu Biao, a bow and arrow made by Jingzhou government.


    The corners of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose and a smile was aroused.


    This is the evidence.


    Huang Zhao said: "the arrow is engraved with the word" Liu ". Is this Liu Biao''s person?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "it doesn''t matter whether Liu Biao arranged it or not. The important thing is that with these bows and arrows, it is enough to prove that Liu Biao arranged it. "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu thought that when she was in zhoumu Prefecture, Liu Biao knew that the inn had been attacked. Liu Biao''s look didn''t seem to be faking. Liu Biao didn''t send anyone to attack the inn.


    Besides Liu Biao, who is the most suspect?


    Zhang Xiu thought quickly.


    Although Zhang Xiu can not consider these, but to sort things out clearly, is conducive to his next action. When Zhang Xiu eliminated the suspicion one by one, he thought of a possibility.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell into the room. When she saw Cai Mao tied to one side, she said in a deep voice, "Cai Mao, is it your Cai family who came to the inn tonight?"


    "No!"


    Cai Mao answered firmly.


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said in a deep voice: "if you don''t tell me the truth, don''t blame Ben Jiang. When you were in Nanyang, you saw Ben Jiang''s means. If you are honest, you can avoid the pain of skin and flesh. Otherwise, it will be too late not to talk now, but to talk after suffering. "


    Cai Mao''s mouth twitched slightly.


    He is afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, I can''t bring up courage.


    Cai Mao sighed and had to answer honestly: "it was the Cai family who attacked the inn. The reason why I know it is not to contact the Cai family in advance, but to know the person in charge of the action. "


    "If so."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Cai Mao, Cai Mao, this time, the Cai family has ruined Liu Biao. What you do, I put all my head on Liu Biao, saying that he arranged it. "


    "When I was in the prefecture, I scolded Liu Biao in front of Sima Hui, Pang Degong and other Jingzhou celebrities. Liu Biao lost face because of your Cai family''s unauthorized actions. "


    "It''s bad luck for Liu Biao to show up with you."


    Zhang Xiu was not smiling and asked, "if Liu Biao knew that it was your Cai family who started it, what would he do with you?"


    Cai Mao''s heart beat.


    With Liu Biao''s temperament, if he really knows, he will have a hard time in the future.


    Although Cai Mao was a little alarmed, his reason was still there. After a little thought, he said, "General Zhang, you won''t tell us the conclusion. As long as you don''t say it, the government can''t find out the result. It''s the Lord''s responsibility to attack the inn. "


    "This is what the Lord arranged."


    "If you don''t say it, I won''t say it. Everyone''s happy."


    Cai Mao gritted his teeth and said, "if you tell me about the Cai family''s attack on the inn, it will have a certain impact on me. But for you, the impact will be even greater, even affecting your negotiations with the Lord. "


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised and said with a smile: "unexpectedly, general Cai will also think."


    After making a mockery of CAI Mao, Zhang Xiu has to admit that Cai Mao''s words are reasonable. He infers the result, but he won''t tell Liu Biao. Because under such circumstances, it is Liu Biao who suffers losses and Zhang Xiu who gets benefits.It''s a fool who wants to talk.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the room.


    The soldier entered the room and reported: "general, Kuai Liang asked to see you."


    "I see."


    Zhang Xiu picked up the bow and arrow engraved with the word "Liu" and got up to walk out of the room. He stood outside the door, looking at Kuai Liang with a sad face, and said with a smile, "Mr. Kuai, it''s so late. Why don''t you come to me for a rest earlier?"


    Kuai Liang said, "come and see the scene."


    Zhang Xiu said: "there''s nothing to look at. Liu Jingzhou arranged this evening."


    Kuai Liang said: "impossible!"


    Zhang Xiu snorted, handed the standard bow and arrow in her hand to Kuai Liang, and said: "this is the standard bow and arrow of Jingzhou, which is only available in the Jingzhou army. Who can use the standard bow and arrow in the army, not Liu Biao? "


    Kuai Liang shook his head and explained, "maybe there is another conspiracy."


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said, "well, don''t talk about anything else. You go back and tell Liu Biao that I will escort wenpin and Cai Mao to leave tomorrow morning. Since Liu Biao is not willing to talk about peace, he will not talk about it. "


    Kuai Liang urged: "General Zhang, why is that so? This peace talk is what my Lord can''t wait for. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "well said, in fact, Liu Biao is not willing to talk about peace. Mr. Kuai, don''t talk about it. Please come back. "


    Kuai Liang wants to persuade again, but as soon as he opens his mouth, Zhang Xiu turns back to the room and slams the door. Kuai Liang touched a nose of ash, had to put down the idea of persuading Zhang Xiu.


    He went out of the inn again and checked the scene before leaving. Back in the prefecture, Kuai Liang goes into his study and meets Liu Biao, who looks haggard. He bows and bows, lifts his robe and sits down.


    Liu Biao asked, "have you found anything?"


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord, there are nine corpses outside Ping''an inn. They are all dead. There is no one alive. In addition, we found the standard bow and arrow in the army. Zhang Xiu can''t get such a bow and arrow. So, it''s certainly not Zhang Xiu''s plan. I''m afraid there''s a third party involved. "


    "Who do you think is the most likely?" Liu Biao asked


    Kuai Liang pondered, but did not answer.


    Liu Biao said: "just say it!"


    Kuai Liang sighed: "I think it may be the people of the Cai family. Because Cai Mao is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, the Cai family has this motive and suspicion, and also has the strength to mobilize weapons in the army. As for Wen pin, he has no such power and strength. "


    Liu Biao said: "since this is the case, tell Zhang Xiu about it and bring Cai Mao up for trial immediately."


    "No way!"


    Kuai Liang shook his head and answered.


    Liu Biao said, "why?"


    Kuai Liang sighed: "even if we speculate that it was the Cai family, Zhang Xiu would not agree. Because Zhang Xiu''s heart is to sit on the main public security platoon attack the inn. Only in this way will it be conducive to Zhang Xiu''s negotiation. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After listening to Liu Biao, he slapped him on the desk and was furious.


    He didn''t do it, but he had to carry the pot.


    That''s too much.

 Chapter 21

    Liu Biao was furious in his heart and continued: "it can''t be done like this. If I admit it, where is my face? How would Jingzhou scholars treat me. Kuai Liang, we must find out clearly and let the Cai family take the initiative to undertake this matter. "


    Kuai Liang hears the speech, but he is silent.


    He did not speak.


    In Jingzhou, the Cai family is deeply rooted and powerful. Although Liu Biao was the leader of Jingzhou, he could not dictate to the Cai family, let alone force the Cai family to admit.


    In particular, Liu Biao can gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou, and the Cai family has made great efforts. Without the full support of the Cai family, Liu Biao could not have established himself in Jingzhou in a short time.


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao couldn''t help sighing.


    He came back to understand that it was impossible to force the Cai family to admit it. At this moment, Liu Biao''s face was full of helplessness and asked, "Sir, is there really no other way?"


    "There is no other way."


    Kuai Liang shook his head and replied: "those who stay at the scene are all dead, and there is no proof of death. In addition, there are Jingzhou''s standard bow and arrow, which all point to the Lord, not to the Cai family. "


    "It''s impossible to identify the Cai family."


    "When he came to the inn to see Zhang Xiu, he had already said that he would leave early tomorrow morning and was not willing to continue the negotiation. I have said before that if Zhang Xiu stays in Jingzhou, the Lord can ignore her with a shelf. "


    "But now, if Zhang Xiu takes the initiative to leave Xiangyang, the Lord will be very passive. You can expect that when Zhang Xiu leaves, she will certainly publicize the attack. "


    Kuai Liang said: "in today''s situation, you don''t do it, you have to carry it down. Otherwise, there will be no talk. "


    Liu Biao clenched his fist and his face turned red with anger.


    It''s bullying.


    Liu Biao was a royal family member, a noble nobleman and a real feudal official in Jingzhou. However, it was reduced to carrying the pot for others.


    Liu Biao said coldly: "Sir, if you go out and directly dispatch troops to kill Zhang Xiu?"


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord, Cai Mao and wenpin are still in Zhang Xiu''s hands. If the Lord mobilizes soldiers to deal with Zhang Xiu, it means giving up Cai Mao and wenpin, and their lives will be in danger. "


    "If you don''t care about CAI Mao and wenpin, the consequences will be even more serious."


    "When Cai Mao died, the Cai family and the guild were divorced. Wenpin is a general promoted by the Lord himself. Regardless of wenpin''s life and death, the soldiers in the army will feel cold. "


    "It''s almost impossible to kill Zhang Xiu."


    Kuai Liang is also very helpless, said: "the Lord''s current situation, has been forced to the corner, no choice."


    Gudong!


    Liu Biao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his face was full of unwilling expression.


    In his heart, incomparable want to go out without negotiation, directly kill Zhang Xiu. But if we don''t negotiate, we will ignore Wen pin and Cai Mao, which is equivalent to indirectly killing Wen pin and Cai Mao.


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao sighed again.


    After thinking about it, Kuai Liang suggested: "Lord, for today''s plan, we can only negotiate with Zhang Xiu. What I''m worried about is that Zhang Xiu will take advantage of this and ask for more benefits. "


    Liu Biao said helplessly: "since there is no choice, let''s negotiate."


    Kuai Liang bowed and said, "tomorrow morning, Zhang Xiu will leave Xiangyang. I went to Ping''an Inn early in the morning and invited Zhang Xiu to the prefecture for negotiation. "


    "Yes!"


    Liu Biao agreed directly.


    The situation became more and more complicated. Liu Biao was extremely agitated. He was not willing to toss again. If he wanted to negotiate, he would negotiate earlier. Liu Biao just wants to solve the problem as soon as possible and let Zhang Xiu go as far as possible.


    Kuai Liang was very tired after a busy day. He left his study, went out of the prefecture, and went straight back to his house to have a rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    At dawn, Kuai Liang came to Ping''an inn.


    After a while, Zhang Xiu and his party went downstairs.


    Kuai Liang began to smile on his face. He immediately welcomed him and said, "General Zhang, my Lord, please go to the prefecture to talk about wenpin and Cai Mao."


    "Don''t talk about it!" said Zhang Xiu


    Kuai Liang said: "General Zhang, my Lord has given me enough sincerity."


    Zhang Xiu said: "if Liu Biao''s sincerity is to invite me to negotiate, I would rather not. After all, what happened last night has yet to come to a conclusion. "


    Kuai Liang had a long history of this and replied, "I didn''t arrange the attack on the inn last night. After the Lord ordered a thorough investigation, it was found that the following officials made the arrangements without authorization. "


    "The person who arranged it was Cai Mao''s subordinate."


    "This man has great respect for Cai Mao. As soon as Cai Mao was arrested, he assembled people in the army, and deployed the standard weapons in the army to win back Cai Mao.


    Kuai Liang said: "about the attack on the inn. My Lord is very sorry. Today, the Lord has dealt with the officials who make decisions without authorization and put them in prison. "Zhang Xiu said, "is that all?"


    Kuai Liang asked, "what else do you want from general Zhang?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "at least we have to make up for it."


    If a simple apology, you can eliminate last night''s things, Zhang Xiu does not need to make so much trouble. He pretended to leave Xiangyang, is to borrow last night''s things, let Liu Biao blame.


    Kuai Liang secretly said that Zhang Xiu was cunning, but he said: "General Zhang, please don''t worry. The Lord has already said that in the next negotiation, he will take the attack on the inn into account and won''t let general Zhang suffer."


    Zhang Xiu said: "OK, let Liu Biao come to Ping''an inn. Let''s talk about it in detail in the inn."


    "Ah


    Kuai Liang raised his eyebrows and said, "General Zhang, it''s more appropriate to be in the prefecture for such an important matter."


    "There are two reasons why I think so," Zhang said


    "First, I''m afraid that after I leave the inn, I''ll repeat what happened last night. Prevention is not a bad thing. Second, what happened last night was that Liu Biao was wrong. Now Liu Biao wants to negotiate. Naturally, he comes in person to show his sincerity. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Kuai, I come here with sincerity. Since Liu Biao is sincere, shouldn''t he go to Ping''an Inn? If he wants to negotiate, he will come in person, or he won''t talk about it. "


    Kuai Liang scratched his head.


    Zhang Xiu is too difficult to deal with. One thing after another, even he is afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    "Well, I''ll invite the Lord."


    Kuai Liang didn''t want to be fussy, so he had to answer.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''ll wait for your news."


    "Goodbye!"


    Kuai Liang turned and left.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Kuai Liang''s back as he leaves, and a fine light flashes in her eyes. The reason why he set the place of negotiation at the inn was on purpose. Because this negotiation, if Liu Biao is willing to come to the inn, it proves that Liu Biao is making concessions step by step.


    This is conducive to Zhang Xiu''s negotiation.


    Everything is a stratagem.


    When Zhang Xiu came back to her room and saw Cai Mao, she said with a smile, "general Cai, congratulations. Liu Biao is about to come to the inn for negotiation. After the negotiation, you will no longer be a prisoner. "


    Cai Mao felt bitter in his heart.


    After he admitted last night, he thought about it carefully. He thought that Liu Biao could infer what the Cai family had done sooner or later, even if Zhang Xiu didn''t say it. Even if he gets rid of Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao will not like it.


    Anyway, he''s out of luck.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Cai Mao didn''t speak and didn''t say much, waiting quietly.


    About a quarter of an hour later, a soldier came to report that Liu was walking towards the inn. Zhang Xiu did not end shelf, out of the room, in person to the inn door waiting.


    When Liu Biao arrived, Zhang Xiu looked as if there was no conflict between the two sides. She arched her hand and said, "Liu Jingzhou, please come inside!"


    "Please


    Liu Biao nodded and strode into the inn.

 Chapter 22

    Ping an inn, second floor.


    Elegant interior.


    Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao and Kuai Liang took their seats respectively.


    After what happened last night, Liu Biao wanted to kill Zhang Xiu. But now Cai Mao and Wen pin are all in Zhang Xiu''s hands, which makes him very difficult.


    Liu Biao held back his anger, began to smile and said, "General Zhang, how do you think about CAI Mao and wenpin. What do you want to do to release them? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I want Nanyang County!"


    "No way!"


    Liu Biao''s big sleeve brushed back.


    Xiangyang is adjacent to Nanyang County. If Nanyang falls into Zhang Xiu''s hands, Liu Biao will be threatened by Zhang Xiu at any time. Of course, Liu Biao knows that Zhang Xiu can''t control Nanyang in a short time, but no matter what, Liu Biao won''t agree.


    This is Liu Biao''s bottom line.


    Even if you tear your face, you won''t give Nanyang to Zhang Xiu.


    Kuai Liang sat aside and said, "General Zhang, you came to Xiangyang with sincerity, bringing wenpin and Cai Mao. General Zhang is willing to negotiate, and the Lord is willing to have a good talk. Only when both sides step back and consider each other, can they reach an agreement. "


    Two people, one singing red face, one singing white face.


    Liu Biao strongly refused Zhang Xiu''s request, while Kuai Liang eased the atmosphere.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is like a mirror.


    After all, it''s negotiation. Naturally, he has to play some tricks. What''s more, he wants the whole Nanyang as soon as he opens his mouth, which is also intentional.


    Facing Liu Biao and Kuai Liang, Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said, "Mr. Kuai''s words would have been agreed. Only by retreating a little can we seek a win-win situation. Liu Jingzhou thinks that the general''s conditions are unreasonable. Please tell us what conditions you can bear? "


    Liu Biao shook his sleeve and said directly, "my bottom line is to put Wan county and the area to the north of Wan County under your name. The area south of Wan county is still under my control. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Liu Jingzhou is very calculating."


    Liu Biao said: "this is my sincerity."


    Zhang Xiu looked disdainful and said: "although Ben Jiang has been in Guanzhong, he doesn''t know much about the situation in Jingzhou. But in general, the situation in Jingzhou is also clear. "


    "If I remember correctly, although Wan county is in Nanyang County and belongs to Jingzhou, today it is only nominally belonging to Liu Jingzhou, but actually it does not listen to the tune."


    "This is especially true in the area to the north of Wan county."


    "Liu Jingzhou said that it was just a sentence to put Wan county and the area to the North under the name of Zhang Xiu. In fact, nothing has been given. "


    Zhang Xiu broke through Liu Biao''s intention and said, "isn''t Liu Jingzhou''s plan a good one?"


    Liu Biao''s expression suddenly froze.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiulian knew such things clearly.


    Kuai Liang continued with a smile: "General Zhang, there will be no pie in the sky. The LORD put the area to the north of Wan County under your name. Although it didn''t bring any actual benefits, with this name, you can control the northern counties of Nanyang County. If you want to use force against the counties, or even adjust the officials of the counties, if you have great righteousness, you will become famous. This is very important. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "not enough!"


    Kuai Liang said: "General Zhang said that the conditions of the Lord are not enough. Then what is general Zhang''s idea?"


    "My conditions, at least to the north of Xinye County," Zhang said


    "No way!"


    Liu Biao answered directly.


    Xinye is located in the south of Wan County, separated from Wan County by Jiyang County and Yuyang county. It is an important town of Nanyang County. This is the place where Liu Biao stationed his troops for defense. If Xinye falls into Zhang Xiu''s hands, it means that Liu Biao''s military deployment will change.


    Kuai Liang answered with a helpless look and said: "Xinye is an important town in Nanyang County. It''s impossible to delimit it. General Zhang, your conditions are a little harsh. "


    Zhang Xiu also a poor posture, said: "Wan county north of the region, have the Lord, and do not listen to the dispatch of Liu Jingzhou. I can''t take any of these important towns. I can''t enter them for the time being. "


    "It means that my soldiers have no place to stay."


    "Xinye is not far from Wancheng. If I take Xinye, I will have a foothold and a bridgehead to attack Wanxian. Moreover, although Xinye is an important town, it is far away from Xiangyang, which is enough to ensure the safety of Xiangyang. "


    Zhang Xiu insisted, unwilling to make concessions.


    Even if he wants to give in, Zhang Xiu has to take another piece of meat from Liu Biao.


    After thinking about it, Kuai Liang said, "General Zhang, what do you think of this? Yuyang County, north of Xinye, is also under the rule of the Lord. The magistrate of Yuyang County obeys the Lord''s orders. The LORD put the north of Yuyang County under your name. All your soldiers are stationed in Yuyang county. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she looked thoughtful.


    Liu Biao said: "General Zhang, this is my last bottom line."


    Zhang Xiu got the benefit and stopped when she saw the good. She said with a smile, "OK, no problem! Just take Yuyang County as the boundary, the north of Yuyang county belongs to me, and the south of Yuyang county belongs to liujingzhou. "Zhang Xiu, who lived before, finally settled in Wan county.


    In this life, after Zhang Xiu fought for it, she had many places under her command, such as Yuyang county and Jiyang County. Although it is a small county, but do not look down upon these places, as long as the business is good, Zhang Xiu''s strength can increase a lot.


    Liu Biao said: "since we have reached an agreement, it''s up to General Zhang to say that he would ask general Zhang to release the hostages."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "the hostage thing is not urgent for the moment. We haven''t finished talking about the terms. "


    "What conditions do you have?"


    Liu Biao''s face became gloomy.


    He doesn''t want to talk to Zhang Xiu, and he doesn''t want to talk to her. Just like this, he didn''t argue and soon agreed to Zhang Xiu''s terms. Just did not expect, Zhang Xiu is not satisfied, but also put forward more conditions.


    It''s really a lack of human heart.


    Liu Biao''s expression was even more unhappy.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Liu Jingzhou, it''s not that I Zhang Xiu''s Lion opened his mouth, but now it''s spring ploughing season. When it comes to autumn harvest this year, I can''t get food. And my soldiers have only enough grain for more than three months. If there is no food supply, it will be difficult to survive this year. Therefore, Liu Jingzhou still needs to provide some food and equipment. "


    Kuai Liang said, "I''m afraid General Zhang''s food can''t last even a month."


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said: "the minimum is three months. If we reduce the supply of food, we can make it through five months. Mr. Kuai, you are too worried. "


    Kuai Liang''s eyes twinkled with brilliance and said: "General Zhang, don''t tell lies in front of real people. I infer that your food is hard to sustain for 20 days. Your situation is not very good. "


    In Zhang Xiu''s heart, Kuai Liang is wise.


    It''s hard for him to get enough food for 20 days. Now the soldiers who stay in Nanyang County are all frugal, waiting for Zhang Xiu to go back with food.


    The situation is very bad.


    However, Zhang Xiu can''t show it.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t show the slightest hint on her face. She said with a smile, "Mr. Kuai, three months is three months. If you don''t have the confidence, how can you negotiate with Liu Jingzhou? "


    Liu Biao looked at Zhang Xiu and saw that everything was as usual. He thought that Zhang Xiu did not seem to be faking. He asked, "General Zhang, stop talking nonsense. How much food and equipment do you want?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "fifty thousand stone grains, five thousand swords and three thousand sets of armor."


    "Hiss!"


    Kuai Liang took a breath and said, "General Zhang, you are a lion. When you open your mouth, you need 50000 stone grains, 5000 swords and 3000 sets of armor. That''s too much. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Jingzhou is rich and wild. The people live a happy life with countless money and food. It''s only 50000 stone grain, just a decimal. Moreover, fifty thousand stone grain can supply ten thousand soldiers for more than half a year. "


    "If the soldiers are allowed to eat, I''m afraid they won''t be able to hold on for more than half a year."


    "It''s not a lion''s mouth."


    Zhang Xiu said: "my offer is not a random shout. When I arrive in Yuyang County, I will gather the former soldiers. At that time, with the increase of troops, the pressure on grain will increase. Once there is a shortage of grain, the consequences will be very serious. So we have to have so much food and weapons. "


    Kuai Liang raised his eyebrows, unwilling.


    Giving Zhang Xiu so much food and weapons is tantamount to subsidizing her.


    Liu Biao didn''t want to talk about it. He waved his hand and said, "General Zhang, I''ve agreed to your terms. Now, let go. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head again.


    Liu Biao made a thorough effort, slapped him on the desk and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, I have a limit to my patience. I agree to your terms one by one. Now it''s your turn to live up to your promise, but you''re putting off everything. What''s the point? "


    Liu Biao''s anger could not be suppressed.


    He is tolerant everywhere, but Zhang Xiu is again and again, every time step by step, let Liu Biao extremely angry.

 Chapter 23

    In the face of Liu Biao''s fury, Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Jingzhou, please calm down. It''s not going to be any good. What Ben is going to say is about releasing people. "


    Liu Biao retreated in anger and said, "you say it!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "in order to show sincerity, we will release wenpin first. As for Cai Mao, I have to go back to Nanyang with me. When I arrive in Nanyang County and take over Yuyang County, and receive the grain and weapons from Liu Jingzhou, I will release Cai Mao. I believe Liu Jingzhou should be able to understand and understand my considerations and concerns. "


    Liu Biao suddenly stopped.


    It''s normal for Zhang Xiu to release wenpin before Cai Mao. After all, Zhang Xiu needs a talisman. If Liu Biaoyi agreed to all the conditions, Zhang Xiu would release wenpin and Cai Mao, then Zhang Xiu would be too stupid.


    Liu Biao said: "let people go!"


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The door was pushed open and a soldier came into the room and stood with a bow.


    Zhang xiudao: "bring wenpin."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to come in soon after he left the room with the tied wenpin. Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to untie the rope on wenpin''s arm and let the soldiers retreat.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Jingzhou, wenpin belongs to you. Now that I have finished talking about the matter, tomorrow morning, I will leave for Nanyang and go straight to Yuyang county. Liu Jingzhou is requested to send sentinel agents to Yuyang County in 800 Li, so as to facilitate the cooperation of Yuyang county magistrate. "


    Liu Biao said, "I will do it myself."


    After a pause, Liu Biao said: "I remember that besides Cai Mao, you also captured Zhang Yun. But Zhang Yun is still in your army. After general Zhang took Cai Mao back, he released Zhang Yun as well. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answered very simply.


    For Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yun is incompetent. It''s the best choice for such a person to stay in Jingzhou and make trouble for Liu Biao.


    "Goodbye!"


    Liu Biao stood up and took wenpin and Kuai Liang out of the room.


    Zhang Xiu also got up and went back to the room. His eyes fell on Cai Mao, who was tied up. He said with a smile, "general Cai, Liu Biao and I have reached an agreement. To the north of Yuyang County, we will have it."


    Cai Mao was so anxious that he asked, "wenpin, you''ve been released. What about me?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "as for you, you have to accompany me back to Nanyang County. If Liu Biao''s grain is sent back to Yuyang County, you will be free. But before that, you have to inform the Cai family and let them prepare food and armor. Otherwise, even if you can return to Xiangyang with me, you will be short of arms and legs. "


    Zhang Xiu has always remembered Cai Mao''s conditions.


    Cai Mao took a deep breath and said, "untie me. I''ll write a letter immediately. General Zhang is requested to send the letter to the Cai family. At that time, the Cai family will send grain, weapons and craftsmen to Yuyang County in the form of caravan. "


    Zhang Xiu immediately untied Cai Mao''s rope and asked the soldiers to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone for Cai Mao to write letters. When Cai Mao finished his letter, Zhang Xiu called for the soldiers to send it to Cai''s house.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu was relieved.


    This trip to Xiangyang was a complete success. With enough food and land to the north of Nanyang County, he will have enough weapons.


    "Newspaper!"


    The soldier went in and said, "general, at the gate of the inn, there is a woman named Huang Yueying asking for help."


    "Huang Yueying?"


    Zhang Xiu is a little strange. Why did she come?


    For Huang Yueying, Zhang Xiu is clear. Huang Yueying is the daughter of Huang Chengyan, a famous scholar in Jingzhou, and the future wife of Zhuge Liang. Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying have nothing to do with each other. Why did she suddenly come to Ping''an Inn.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "bring people in. Be polite and don''t neglect them."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to summon at once.


    Zhang Xiu let people take Cai Mao to the next room for custody, and then sit in the room quietly waiting. Not long after, there was a sound of footwork outside the room, and a young woman appeared at the door of the room.


    This woman is Huang Yueying.


    In her twenties and eighties, she was slender and graceful, wearing a white pleated skirt, which perfectly set off her figure. Standing at the door, there is golden sunshine falling down, as if a relegated fairy was born.


    She looks pretty, not to mention natural beauty, but a pair of eyes are bright god, especially that seemingly ordinary pretty face, careful look, but there is a kind of unclear temperament.


    Zhang Xiu was stunned, then returned to her senses and said with a smile, "Miss Huang, please come in!"


    Huang Yueying bowed and sat down.


    Zhang Xiu took the initiative to say, "Miss Huang, come to Ping''an inn. What can I do for you?"


    Huang Yueying''s expression was a little chilly and said, "I''m here to hope that general Zhang will release my uncle."


    "Uncle?"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "who is your uncle?"


    Huang Yueying said, "Cai Mao is my uncle."After hearing this, Zhang Xiu suddenly realized. It suddenly occurred to him that the Cai family and the Huang family were married. Huang Chengyan married Cai Mao''s elder sister, and the two families were very close.


    Cai Mao is Huang Yueying''s uncle.


    Zhang Xiu thought, did not immediately answer Huang Yueying''s words. A moment later, a smile rose from the corner of his mouth and joked, "Miss Huang, you are not afraid that I will do you harm when you come to the inn alone?"


    General Zhang Yueying will not come


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "when a man sees a woman, many things are out of control."


    Huang Yueying smiles like a hundred flowers blooming and confidently says, "Yueying has heard something about General Zhang''s behavior and deeds. In Yueying''s opinion, general Zhang is a wise man, not an impulsive one. "


    "First of all, general Zhang is a hero. If you bully a weak woman, it will damage General Zhang''s reputation once it''s spread. It''s not good for general Zhang."


    "Second, although Yueying is a weak woman, she came from the Huang family. If general Zhang bullies Yueying, there will be more Huang family as the enemy. When General Zhang first arrived in Jingzhou, he offended the CAI and Huang families one after another. It''s not worth it. "


    Huang Yueying talks freely.


    Zhang Xiu listens to Huang Yueying''s words, feeling in her heart that Huang Yueying is really not simple.


    Wisdom and courage.


    Such a woman is not simple.


    Zhang Xiu was no longer joking. She opened her door to the mountain and said, "what Miss Huang said is quite insightful, which Zhang Xiu admired. But no matter what Miss Huang says, I can''t release Cai Mao. "


    "Why?" said Huang Yueying


    Zhang Xiu explained: "with the wisdom of Miss Huang, I should know that Cai Mao is my talisman. If Cai Mao is released, I will have no one to check and balance Liu Biao. Let Miss Huang know that Liu Biao and I have reached an agreement. When I return to Nanyang County safely, Cai Mao will be released. He''s safe. Miss Huang doesn''t have to worry about it. "


    Huang Yueying was also relieved.


    She was worried about CAI Mao''s safety.


    Huang Yueying has been favored by Cai Mao since she was a child. Huang Chengyan has a daughter and no son. So most of the time, Huang Yueying went to Cai''s house to play. Although Cai Mao was busy with government affairs, he was also very fond of Huang Yueying.


    Just like this, Huang Yueying came to the inn alone, hoping that Zhang Xiu would release Cai Mao.


    Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and said, "Miss Huang, there was a problem. I don''t know if Miss Huang can solve the problem."


    Huang Yueying said, "General Zhang, please speak up."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Miss Huang came to the inn alone to let me release Cai Mao. Although Miss Huang is not worried about safety, how can miss huang let me release Cai Mao? There is no advantage. Why should I let people go? Where is Miss Huang''s confidence? "


    Huang Yueying said: "in my hand, I have a drawing of the bow and crossbow of the former Qin Dynasty. Although the bows and crossbows of the Han Dynasty are strong, their range and lethality are far from enough. After my adjustment, Qin crossbow has been made. This is my card. "


    Originally, Huang Yueying''s plan was to exchange the drawings of Qin crossbow for Cai Mao.


    Now, I can''t use it.


    It suddenly occurred to Zhang Xiu that Huang Yueying was good at making all kinds of utensils. If Huang Yueying is dug up and asked to help him study weapons, it will be a great help to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 24

    Zhang Xiu thinks about how to persuade Huang Yueying to help him.


    It''s not easy.


    Thinking that Huang Yueying likes to make all kinds of utensils, but no one supports her, Zhang Xiu has an idea and asks, "Miss Huang, are you good at making utensils?"


    "Of course, I like it."


    As soon as Huang Yueying mentioned things about utensils making, she got excited. She also opened the clip and said, "the Huang family is in Xiangyang. They have a large collection of books."


    "I''ve read a lot since I was a child."


    "My favorite is the collection of Mohist books at home. The skills of making tools and weapons in the book are amazing. "


    "What I admire most is that Mozi made wooden kites in Lushan. According to historical records, "Mozi''s wood is a harrier. It was made in three years, but it was defeated in one day.". It is said that Gongshu class also made wooden kites, which flew in the air for three days and three nights before falling down. "


    With a look of longing, Huang Yueying said, "if only one day I could make a wooden kite flying in the sky. In that case, there will be no regrets. "


    Zhang xiuxiao said: "ordinary women work in boudoir middle school. Miss Huang likes craftsmen and utensils. Won''t your father stop her? "


    Huang Yueying looked complacent and said, "at the beginning, my father didn''t support me. It''s just that what he said is useless. I can''t help it. My father is my only daughter, and I can only let him go. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "your father really dotes on you, otherwise he won''t let it develop. But in this world, there is no airtight wall. Miss Huang is not good at working as a carpenter. I''m afraid many people will criticize her when it comes out that she likes to be a carpenter. "


    Huang Yueying looks gloomy.


    This matter is really criticized.


    At the beginning, it was just a simple spread, but at the end, it became that she was as ugly as black charcoal, and she could not work as a woman, so she put all her thoughts on the strange sex skills.


    Huang Yueying is very indignant about this.


    Just a long time, also used to, lazy to take care of.


    Instead of answering, Huang Yueying looked at Zhang Xiu and asked, "General Zhang, do you think so? Do you think women can''t do this, they can only embroider in the boudoir? "


    "Of course not!" said Zhang Xiu


    Huang Yueying said, "what do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "many people think that a woman without talent is virtue. The reason for this is that it is convenient for them to control women. But I think it''s a wonderful thing to have something you like to do and show your talents. Miss Huang likes to make new things, even if she does. I don''t care what they say, let them go


    Huang Yueying immediately began to laugh, and she was pleased to see Zhang Xiu.


    She laughed, two dimples appeared on her white face, and said: "people say that general Zhang is a valiant man, and there are six orifices in his seven orifices. Unexpectedly, general Zhang''s mouth was so eloquent. But you don''t have to comfort me. I''m used to it. "


    "This is not comfort," Zhang said


    Huang Yueying shook her head, but she didn''t believe it.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were bright and she said, "don''t you believe Miss Huang? In that case, I formally invite you to Yuyang county. You have the skill and ability. I''m in Yuyang county. I''ll set up a craftsman''s workshop for you to make utensils. Would you like to


    Huang Yueying suddenly moved.


    Her father didn''t stop her from making anything at home, but he didn''t support it. It''s hard for her to make some small things because she lacks a lot of materials and tools. With the support of Zhang Xiu, many ideas in her mind can be put into action.


    It''s just going to Nanyang. It''s a little far away.


    Huang Yueying looked at Zhang Xiu and said warily, "General Zhang, are you trying to abduct me to Nanyang County, intending to do something wrong?"


    Zhang Xiu laughs and says: "Miss Huang, although Zhang is a general and a martial arts man, she can''t do dirty things. I invite you to Nanyang County mainly because you have the ability to make weapons. "


    "For example, you have drawings for making Qin crossbows. If you go to Yuyang county and take out the drawings and let the craftsmen work according to the drawings, it will be of great help to me. "


    "My purpose, that''s all."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Miss Huang herself is a very clever person. It''s a joke to say that she was abducted by me. And you are the apple of the yellow family''s eye. What can I do to you? When you go to Nanyang, you can show your strong points, but I can get all kinds of weapon making methods. Both sides are mutually beneficial and win-win


    Huang Yueying nodded and said, "I have to think about this."


    Zhang xiudao said: "everything follows Miss Huang''s wishes. I''m not reluctant. Tomorrow morning, I will leave Xiangyang for Yuyang county. If Miss Huang wants to, she can come with me. If you don''t want to, let it go. "


    "I see. Goodbye!"


    Huang Yueying stood up and left.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Huang Yueying''s back and smiles. Because of CAI Mao, it''s also a good result to have a relationship with Huang Yueying.My fair lady is a gentleman.


    Huang Yueying such a woman, Zhang Xiu is also quite heart. Just now, Zhang Xiu has no mind to pursue Huang Yueying. Now the most important thing is to improve our strength.


    Huang Yueying here, let it be.


    After leaving Ping''an Inn, Huang Yueying drove back by carriage.


    In the carriage, her thoughts began to recover. In Zhang Xiu''s instigation, Huang Yueying''s heart, breeding the idea of going to Nanyang. She really likes to make all kinds of objects in her heart, and she enjoys the sense of accomplishment.


    At home, it''s always constrained.


    Therefore, Huang Yueying wants to go north. She wants to have a try. If she fails, she will go back to Xiangyang. However, Huang Yueying also knows that if she directly tells Huang Chengyan that she wants to go under Zhang Xiu''s command and help Zhang Xiu make weapons, she will definitely be rejected or even banned.


    It''s a detour.


    Huang Yueying thought, unconsciously, the carriage returned to the house.


    When she entered the mansion, she had an idea in her mind. Huang Yueying rushed to Huang Chengyan''s study. She enters the study, after seeing Huang Chengyan, respectfully salutes a way: "father!"


    Huang Chengyan is in his early 40s and a young man.


    He was dressed in a sky blue robe, white cheeks, gentle, a school of Confucian bearing. Seeing that Huang Yueying came back, Huang Chengyan put down his books and said with a smile, "you stay in your workshop all day long. You don''t want to come out. You must have something to do with me. Come on, what''s the matter? "


    Huang Yueying said with a cute smile: "my daughter''s mind can''t hide from my father. My daughter remembers that our Huang family has an industry in Yuyang County, which specializes in making farm tools. She wants to visit Yuyang county. "


    "Why do you suddenly want to see the production of farm tools?"


    Huang Chengyan raised his head, some doubts.


    Huang Yueying replied, "my daughter is more interested in things about craftsmen. I''ve been studying farm tools recently, but I''m not familiar with farm tools. I want to have a look on the spot. "


    Huang Chengyan couldn''t stop his daughter. He waved his hand and said, "go ahead, pay attention to safety."


    "Thank you, Dad!"


    Huang Yueying is very happy. As long as she goes to Yuyang County, she can go to find Zhang Xiu and ask her to provide her with the necessary equipment.


    Thinking of this, Huang Yueying is very happy.


    Leaving her study, Huang Yueying went back to her yard and began to pack her bags, preparing to leave for the North early tomorrow morning. She doesn''t plan to go out of the city with Zhang Xiu, which is easy to cause misunderstanding.


    Huang Yueying''s plan is to get out of the city, stay away from Xiangyang, and then meet with Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 25

    The next day, early in the morning.


    At dawn, Zhang Xiu got up and left Ping''an Inn with CAI Mao and Huang Zhao. Yesterday afternoon, Zhang Xiu got a reply from the Cai family. The Cai family had already started to prepare the caravan and would send the conditions Cai Mao promised as soon as possible.


    The Cai family suffered a great loss in this matter.


    But Cai Mao is the owner of the Cai family and the leader of the Cai family. Cai Mao is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, and the Cai family is blackmailed by Zhang Xiu. Even if they break their teeth, they can only swallow them.


    A group of people quickly on their way, soon came to the north gate of Xiangyang City.


    At the gate, Kuai Liang stood with his head high.


    Today''s Kuai Liang, dressed in a black robe, with a sword hanging from his waist and a golden crown on his head, has an air of dignity. He saw Zhang Xiu riding his horse, with a smile on his face, went up to the front and said, "General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu turned over and dismounted. She replied, "Mr. Kuai!"


    Kuai Liang said with a smile: "this time general Zhang went to Xiangyang, he not only got the area to the north of Yuyang County, Nanyang County, but also got many other benefits. Since then, the defense to the north of Nanyang County has relied on General Zhang. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s duty bound!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said sincerely: "Mr. Kuai has the ability to manage the country and help the world, but Liu Biao is old and has no enterprising spirit. Under Liu Biao''s command, Mr. Kuai is a bit of a stooper. If one day Mr. Kuai doesn''t like to be in Jingzhou, the door of Zhang Xiu will always be open to him. "


    Kuai Liang said, "General Zhang, thank you."


    Regardless of the positions of both sides, Kuai Liang also appreciates Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not easy for Kuai Liang to do things without rules. It''s more difficult for him to do things without rules. For example, when Zhang Xiu goes to a banquet, she dares to tear her face with Liu Biao and scold Liu Biao out loud; when Zhang Xiu negotiates with Liu Biao, she dares to throw her face out, and the lion opens her mouth and grabs benefits regardless of everything.


    On the contrary, Liu Biao, because of his face, is very difficult to do things.


    Therefore, Kuai Liang is optimistic about Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just that both sides have their own positions, and his appreciation of Zhang Xiu is just thinking about it.


    Zhang Xiu said a word to woo Kuai Liang, but she didn''t say much. Nowadays, it is almost impossible for Kuai Liang to play for him. What Zhang Xiu can do is to have a good relationship with the other party and lay the foundation for the future.


    "Goodbye, Mr. Kuai!"


    Zhang Xiu said a voice, then turn over to mount a horse.


    Huang Zhao and his party followed Zhang Xiu and quickly went out of the north gate to the north of Nanyang County.


    Kuai Liang looks at Zhang Xiu''s back when she leaves. He has a feeling in his heart. The next time I see Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will not be as down and out as she is today, and will surely undergo earth shaking changes.


    But all this has nothing to do with Kuai Liang.


    Kuai Liang turns back to the city and goes to the prefecture to reply to Liu Biao.


    Zhang Xiu takes people on her way. After about half an hour, she comes to a post station. Next to the post station, there was a pavilion in which a handsome young man stood.


    This person is Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu knew yesterday afternoon that Zhang Xiu was leaving Xiangyang, so he left the city early to wait. Xu Shu already knew the contents of the negotiation between Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao, and he was happy for Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived, Xu Shu walked out of the pavilion, led the horse to Zhang Xiu and said respectfully, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you don''t have to be polite, sir. Let''s go back to Nanyang."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu turned over and went on his way.


    This scene fell into the eyes of CAI Mao in the rear. He knew Xu Shu. He was shocked to see Xu Shu calling Zhang Xiu "Lord" and said, "Xu Yuanzhi, when did you submit to Zhang Xiu? My Lord has recruited you several times, but you refuse. Unexpectedly, you should follow Zhang Xiu. "


    He never thought that Xu Shu, such a proud man, chose Zhang Xiu.


    You know, Zhang Xiu was exiled to Nanyang County.


    No matter how much Cai Mao was afraid of Zhang Xiu and how he was defeated by Zhang Xiu, from the bottom of his heart, Cai Mao despised Zhang Xiu. In CAI Mao''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is a clay leg.


    A Wufu, he despised.


    Even if Zhang Xiu is powerful, Cai Mao despises her.


    Seeing Cai Mao''s expression, Xu Shu said with a smile, "you choose your minister, and I also choose you. It''s normal for the common people to submit to the Lord. Do I have to become an official if Liu Jingzhou is not conquered? Since ancient times, it has always been the case that good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters to do things. "


    Cai Mao''s face was embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu for Cai Mao''s surprise, just smile, no more words. At this time, Zhang Xiu looked back and saw that the rear was empty and disappointed. When he saw Huang Yueying yesterday, he invited her to go north.


    One day yesterday, I didn''t hear from Huang Yueying.


    Now, I don''t see it either.


    Zhang Xiu thought that Huang Yueying would not go north, so she was disappointed.Xu Shu noticed the difference of Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, what''s the matter?"


    "It''s all right, it''s all right."


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu adjusted her mind and led the people on their way. Walking forward less than a quarter of an hour, suddenly a soldier said loudly: "general, there is a team of people in front of us blocking our way."


    Zhang Xiu looked up and saw a group of people in black standing on the official road 30 steps away. With a cursory scan, there were about 30 people in black in front of him.


    A person is holding an iron sword, a pair of murderous look.


    At this time, a middle-aged man rode out.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the middle-aged man, she immediately understood the reason. Because it''s not other people who drive out, it''s Yi nationality.


    The night before yesterday, Yi Ji was humiliated and resented by Zhang Xiu. But he didn''t dare to use force in the city, so when Zhang Xiu left Xiangyang, he took people to rob and kill Zhang Xiu and wanted to revenge.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression was calm, and there was no panic in her eyes. She said, "Huang Zhao, go to Mr. Xu''s side to protect his safety. You can get hurt, but Mr. Xu can''t get hurt. "


    "The end will understand!"


    Huang Zhao holds his fist and comes to Xu Shu. He draws his sword out of the sheath and looks alert.


    But Xu Shu shook his head and said, "Lord, you must endure and protect your humble position. I used to be a Ranger, and I used to fight everywhere. Although he has not killed people for many years, his sword is still sharp and never rusted. In this war, I will fight side by side with my Lord. "


    "Well, you and I will join hands against the enemy."


    Zhang Xiu is bold and brave.


    He drove his horse forward, not long time, less than ten steps away from Yiji. He mentioned a breath, Lang said: "Yi Ji, you bring people to rob and kill this general, not afraid of Liu Biao, do you know?"


    Yi Ji''s eyes were filled with hatred and said coldly, "so what? I gave up. Zhang Xiu, there are less than ten soldiers around you. I have brought more than 30 warriors. Today, I''m going to make you hate it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''d like to see if you have the ability. But are you going to kill Cai Mao? "


    This is Zhang Xiu''s trial.


    Yi Ji said: "only kill you, not Cai Mao."


    With a smile on her lips, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for a soldier to escort Cai Mao to one side. Not only that, Zhang Xiu even ordered the soldiers to pull out the knife and put it on Cai Mao''s neck.


    This is to prevent the Iraqis from arranging people to save Cai Mao. As long as Cai Mao is there, Zhang Xiu will have hostages, Liu Biao will carry out the contract, and the Cai family dare not go back. Once Cai Mao is lost, all treaties will be void.


    Yi Ji saw Zhang Xiu''s way of doing it, disdaining to smile. He didn''t care about CAI Mao''s life and death, and ordered: "kill! Kill Zhang Xiu. "


    The soldiers under his command were killed quickly.


    At the moment when the soldiers under the Iraqi command are killed, Zhang Xiu takes out the golden spear and rushes out with a slap on the back of the horse.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu roared.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is as relaxed as the wind and free as he likes. The samurai under Yi Ji''s command is only ten steps away from Zhang Xiu. Such a distance, almost in the twinkling of an eye, has already met.


    See a warrior rushed, Zhang Xiu low drink, tiger head golden gun in the air a shake, then mercilessly stab out.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates the warrior''s throat precisely.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand was full of force, and immediately drew back the long gun. I saw the gun tip out of the moment, a canopy of red blood splashed out, and the warrior also immediately fell to the ground.

 Chapter 26

    "If you want to kill me, you have to have this life."


    Zhang Xiu calm answer, then ride the horse to continue forward. He has a golden spear in his hand and a long spear like a dragon. Under the attack of Zhang Xiu, the samurai in front of Zhang Xiu was just a face to face and was killed.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu continues to kill the warriors under Yi Ji''s command. He rises up and sings loudly.


    "When a man kills, he kills without mercy."


    "The eternal cause of all ages lies in killing people."


    "Once upon a time, there was a man of honor. His loyalty was strong."


    "Jai canthus is killing people. He is lighter than a feather."


    "There are heroes and tyrants, who kill people in chaos."


    "Galloping around the world, only boasting about swords and guns."


    Zhang Xiu sings while fighting. At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s long gun is dancing in the air. He only sees the cold light flickering, and then he sees the place where the gun light passes, with a lot of blood, and a corpse plops down one after another.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s heroic spirit is fully displayed.


    Xu Shu follows not far away, hears Zhang Xiu''s voice, sees Zhang Xiu''s fighting heroic posture, is also ebullient. Although Xu Shu was not a general, his martial arts were not low. He quickly handed out his long face and killed the warrior in front of him.


    "Kill


    Xu Shu drinks high and is full of fighting spirit.


    Xu Shu used to be a knight errant. He attached great importance to righteousness and despised anger. He was extremely heroic.


    Zhang Xiu''s words speak Xu Shu''s heart.


    At this moment, Xu Shu thought that he followed the right person. Zhang Xiu is the master he wants to follow and the person he wants to assist.


    However, there was a look of shock on Yi Ji''s cheek. He never thought that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts would be so powerful. The golden spear with tiger''s head would kill her, and there would be no living under the spear.


    The people he brought were completely unstoppable.


    "Go up together, surround and kill Zhang Xiu."


    Seeing that the opportunity was not good, Yi Ji adjusted the attack strategy and gave the order of encircling and killing. Under the command of the warriors to order, all carrying a knife, straight to Zhang Xiu, intention to besiege Zhang Xiu.


    Facing the siege of a group of warriors, Zhang Xiu didn''t show the slightest worry on her face. He didn''t even step back, but he attacked the slain warriors. When Zhang Xiu entered the crowd, the long gun passed by and pierced the warrior''s body.


    Scream, ring!


    Blood, splashing.


    Zhang Xiu''s body is stained with blood. Under the rendering of blood stains, he is like a demon. He kept killing, but there was no pity on his face, only cold and fierce color.


    Killers, people always kill!


    If these people come to kill under the orders of the Iraqi nationality, they have to be ready to be killed. Seeing a warrior wielding a sword in front of her, Zhang Xiu swept with a gun. With a bang of the gun, she hit the warrior hard.


    Zhang Xiu is riding a horse to sprint. Under the running of the war horse, the horse borrows manpower, and the man borrows the horse''s momentum to burst out with great strength. Under the impact of the vast power, the golden spear sweeps the warrior in black.


    The samurai screamed and spat blood in his mouth. His body flew backward uncontrollably. He fell to the ground with a bang.


    Zhang Xiu''s spear is fierce, and the more he fights, the braver he is.


    He spurted his horse back and forth, singing again.


    "A man is a man."


    "Be a violent man."


    "Things and benevolence, two do not stand."


    "A man''s business is in the fighting field. He is as bold as a bear, and his eyes are like a wolf."


    "If you are a man, you will kill people. Don''t teach a man to wrap his body around a woman''s heart."


    "Men never sympathize with each other, even if they die, they will smile at each other."


    "There are 100 enemy battlefields, and they are willing to be green with weeds everywhere."


    "Don''t shudder, there are songs for you to listen to:


    " killing one is a crime, killing ten thousand is a male. "


    "If you kill nine million, you will be the hero in the hero."


    Zhang Xiu singing, while hand, horse sprint, spear, all purgatory.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is like a demon.


    "Gudong!"


    Cai Maoren was in the rear. Seeing the scene of fighting on the battlefield, he could not help swallowing a mouthful of saliva. He was really scared by Zhang Xiu''s ruthlessness. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so violent and murderous on the battlefield, which was shocking.


    Cai Mao felt regret in his heart.


    If he had known this, what would he do to provoke Zhang Xiu.


    At the beginning, we should not pursue Zhang Xiu.


    Xu Shu fights not far away from Zhang Xiu. Hearing Zhang Xiu''s song, he feels more excited. Zhang Xiu''s poems are unrestrained, vigorous and heroic.


    Today''s world is a world of great struggle. The princes rise together, and fight against each other. In this case, just like Zhang Xiu''s singing, there is only constant killing.


    Xu Shu especially liked the last four sentences.


    Killing one is sin, killing ten thousand is male.


    If you kill nine million, you will be the male in the male.


    Although these four lines are very red - naked and bloody, they tell the truth of the feudal expedition. In this chaotic world, you kill me today and I kill you tomorrow, all fighting constantly.It can''t be stopped by virtue of benevolence, righteousness and morality.


    The only way to end the troubled times is to fight and kill.


    Xu Shu''s heart was smooth, his sword was vertical and horizontal, and he pushed forward quickly.


    On the battlefield, Zhang Xiu, Xu Shu and Huang Zhao, with a few soldiers, quickly pushed the battlefield forward and pressed down the warriors of Yi nationality. Even though there are many Iraqis, they are in trouble.


    Seeing this, Yi Ji was surprised, angry and worried.


    The situation is very bad!


    "Kill, kill Zhang Xiu quickly."


    Yi Ji orders loudly, but the soldiers under his command are losing, which can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    "I can''t stop it, get out!"


    Among the warriors, some were scared to death by Zhang Xiu and broke down.


    It''s really that Zhang Xiu is too fierce. Under Zhang Xiu''s long gun, they can''t stop it at all. Run to the front to kill Zhang Xiu, can only be sent to death. In this short period of time, more than half of them died, and the remaining ten or so were not enough for Zhang Xiu to kill.


    With the first person running away, the situation collapses faster.


    "Get out, get out."


    "Back, I can''t stop it."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the warriors retreated in fear, and all of them no longer resisted. No one wanted to stay and fight. They are not soldiers in the army, but private soldiers in the Iraqi family.


    These private soldiers are not dead men.


    In the face of the situation of death, they will not fight to the end. They all retreat one after another. No one dares to stand in front of Zhang Xiu, because they are afraid of being killed by Zhang Xiu.


    Yi Ji sighed in his heart, and wanted to cry without tears.


    This battle, defeated!


    He took more than 30 warriors to kill Zhang Xiu. He thought it was a win-win situation, but he was overturned by Zhang Xiu.


    All the warriors retreat, but the Iraqis do not.


    He is Liu Biao''s confidant and an important official of Jingzhou. Even if he falls in the hand of Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t believe that Zhang Xiu dares to take him.


    This is the confidence and confidence of Yi Ji.


    After they left the battlefield, they gathered around Yi Ji and defended his safety. They turned attack into defense and were on guard.


    Zhang Xiu, holding a bloody golden spear, slowly drives his horse to Yi Ji. He stares at Yi Ji with sharp eyes and says in a deep voice: "Yi Ji, are you really brave or scared. I''m defeated, but I still don''t run away. Do you want to stay where I am and wait for death? "


    Although Yi Ji was frightened in his heart, he didn''t show the slightest look of panic on his face. He calmly said: "Zhang Xiu, I''m an official of Jingzhou and an important minister under the Lord''s command. If you kill me, you can''t afford the consequences. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "who gives you confidence?"


    Yi Ji big sleeve a brush, self-confident way: "if you kill me, the news back to Xiangyang, the Lord knows, will not let you leave Jingzhou.". You also want to take advantage of the power of the Lord to have a foothold in Nanyang County


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Yi Ji, you are so self righteous. At this point, you have miscalculated two things. "


    "Which two things?" Eji asked? ¡°

 Chapter 27

    Zhang Xiu''s hand works hard, and the golden spear with tiger head pulls a torch in the air. Just listen to the sound of Yi, the tip of the spear penetrates into the ground, and the long spear is inserted upside down on the ground, while Zhang Xiu is standing on a horse, heroic and majestic.


    Ejie smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    He couldn''t see Zhang Xiu showing off. He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, so he didn''t have a good face.


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, overestimate your own ability. When I was in the prefecture, I didn''t mean to hurt people. It was you, Yi Ji, who took the initiative to stand up and try to beat me down for Liu Biao, and finally failed. "


    "You can''t humiliate me. If you humiliate yourself, you have a grudge and want to kill me."


    "But you think you can kill me if you only have more than 30 people. Unexpectedly, he hit the iron plate. If I were you, I would never take more than 30 warriors with me. They all use swords. They must shoot with crossbows first, and then fight head-on. "


    "That''s how you win."


    "Unfortunately, you are not me."


    "So now, it''s not you who want to kill me, it''s me who want to kill you. When it comes to homicide, it comes to the second point. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "second, you underestimated Ben Jiang."


    "Not that you underestimated Ben''s ability, but that you underestimated Ben''s determination to kill you. Even if you are a subordinate of Liu Biao and a minister of Liu Biao, since you come to kill me, I will do as I do. "


    "The hatred between us can''t be resolved. It''s an endless situation."


    "It''s hard for me not to kill you."


    "If I kill you, I can go north with peace of mind and set an example to others."


    Zhang Xiu eyes sharp, said: "kill you Yi Ji, those who have ulterior motives, but also want to deal with this will of people, will be convergence, dare not casually extend claws, will also have fear."


    "You, you..."


    After hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Yi Ji was shocked and said, "Zhang Xiu, you really killed me. You can''t afford the consequences."


    Zhang Xiu sneered and disdained: "when a person dies, he has no value. If you are still alive, Liu Biao will pay a certain price to save you, just like Cai Mao. But when you die, Liu Biao won''t take revenge for you. He and Ben Jiang are now allies. Liu Biao can''t tear his face with Ben Jiang for your sake. Think about Liu Biao''s revenge for you, dream about it


    Brush!


    Yi Ji''s face changed greatly.


    He carefully ponders, also approves Zhang Xiu''s view. Once he was killed, Liu Biao, in order to take care of the overall situation of Jingzhou, could not avenge him. At most, he reprimanded Zhang Xiu, and could not tear her face.


    At this moment, Yi Ji panicked.


    He felt that his idea was so absurd. All of a sudden, Yi Ji''s pupil shrinks, and a touch of panic passes in his eyes. Because he saw that Zhang Xiu held out her hand and held the long gun inserted upside down on the ground.


    "No, I don''t want to die!"


    Yi Ji roared loudly and begged for mercy: "Zhang Xiu, everything is easy to discuss. This time I offend you, it''s my eye, it''s my fault. Spare me this time. I won''t retaliate again. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu hands force, tiger head gun suddenly raised.


    Golden long gun across the air, across a streamer in the air, hanging a sharp whistling sound, straight to Yi Ji body stab.


    Seeing this, Yi Ji turned around and wanted to run away.


    But his action was a step late. As soon as he was ready to turn around, there was pain in his chest.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun pierces the skin and penetrates the heart.


    Zhang Xiu''s face is calm, and she works hard in her hands. As soon as the barrel of the gun twists, the tip of the gun breaks Yi Ji''s heart.


    "Poof!"


    Zhang Xiu draws out the head of the gun, and the blood splashes out from Yi Ji''s chest like a spring.


    "I, I..."


    Yi Ji stretched out his hand to cover his heart and opened his mouth to speak. But after the heart was punctured, blood gushed up to his throat, blocking his throat, making it difficult for him to make a sound. As the heart was broken, the look of Yi Ji''s eyes gradually faded.


    In the end, there is no more glory.


    "Plop!"


    Yi Ji leaned back and fell to the ground.


    This scene made the warriors under Yi Ji at a loss, and they were all afraid. They want to escape, but because they are afraid of Zhang Xiu, they can only stay where they are.


    Zhang Xiu did not continue to kill, in front of the more than ten warriors, lightly said: "Yi Ji is your master, I killed Yi Ji, you want to revenge, now you can do it, this will take one by one."


    "No, we won''t take revenge. This time, it''s all Yi Ji who''s looking for his own death. It''s all he''s looking for. "


    A warrior spoke quickly.


    "Yes, yes, we won''t take revenge."


    "General Zhang, we are wrong."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the warriors quickly get rid of the relationship and dare not fight Zhang Xiu. The previous fight has scared everyone out of their wits. No one dares to fight against Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu heard the reply from the crowd, she said, "since there is no revenge, go back to Jingzhou.""Here it is


    A group of samurai heard that if they were granted amnesty, they were ready to leave.


    "Stop!"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu suddenly ordered.


    As soon as his words came out, the people who had just taken a few steps stopped and looked at Zhang Xiu with fear in their eyes. They have no horses. Even if they run away, they can''t beat Zhang Xiu''s horses. They can only stop.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take away Yi Ji!"


    "Here it is


    The warriors were ordered to come back to carry Yi Ji. But they did not dare to go, and looked at Zhang Xiu, saw Zhang Xiu waved, just like to fly away.


    Zhang Xiu asked people to deal with the dead warrior and checked the situation of the soldiers under her command. None of the soldiers under his command were killed, and two of them suffered minor injuries and were not worried about their lives.


    Xu Shu came to Zhang Xiu with an expectant look in his eyes and asked, "my Lord, the poem you sang before seems incomplete. Is there a complete poem?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s just a feeling. There are no other sentences."


    As a matter of fact, he remembered this poem very well. It''s just that there are many allusions in the poem that are not suitable for the present, and it''s also out of time, so Zhang Xiu said that she had some feelings.


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    Xu Shu is very disappointed, such a sentence, but it is not complete, too worrying.


    Although Xu Shu was sorry, he soon regained his composure and said, "my Lord, the warrior under Yi Ji''s command, returns to Xiangyang with Yi Ji''s body. Liu Biao is likely to be very angry when he learns about it."


    Zhang Xiu said calmly: "Liu Biao is so angry, what can he do? This time, it''s the Iraqi people who are responsible, not us. Who is to blame for the murder of Yi Ji? Moreover, I really want to see what Liu Biao will do. This time, it''s a good opportunity to test Liu Biao. "


    Xu Shu praised: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "let''s go. Leave Xiangyang early. We have a lot to do when we get to Yuyang county."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu should go down.


    They set out again, walked about ten miles to the north, and were about to leave Xiangyang.


    On the official road, a carriage stopped.


    In the carriage, there was a beautiful woman in a long white dress.


    This woman is Huang Yueying.


    As soon as the gate was opened, Huang Yueying left Xiangyang City and waited for Zhang Xiu on the official road. This time she went to Yuyang County, what she did in Yuyang county will surely spread to her father''s ears, so Huang Yueying did not intend to hide and protect her guard.


    The driver is the guard.


    Huang Yueying had been waiting for a long time, but no one was there. Some of them dozed off. She got up early in the morning and didn''t sleep. She was always feeble and lazy.


    "Girl, someone''s coming."


    Suddenly, the driver began to speak.


    On hearing this, Huang Yueying lifted the curtain of the carriage and peeped out to the back. Only see the rear of the official road smoke everywhere, a team of people and horses are running fast.


    It''s Zhang Xiu and his party.


    So Huang Yueying poked her head out and waited quietly.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    When the distance is less than 20 steps, Zhang Xiu also sees Huang Yueying sticking out her head. See this situation, Zhang Xiu suddenly showed a bright smile, originally depressed mood, at this moment suddenly enlightened.


    It''s like everything is coming back to life!


    It''s like a long drought with rain!


    Zhang Xiu slaps the horse on the back and speeds up to Huang Yueying. She says with a smile, "Miss Huang, I haven''t seen you for a long time. I was so far away from Xiangyang that I didn''t see anyone. I thought you wouldn''t go to Yuyang county. "


    Huang Yueying said: "although I am a woman, I will not change my mind about what I promise."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "let''s go!"


    "Good!"


    Huang Yueying nodded with a smile. She drew her head back into the carriage and told the driver to drive.


    People, keep going north.

 Chapter 28

    Xiangyang, the prefecture of animal husbandry.


    Kuai Liang''s office is in the Yamen.


    At the moment, Kuai Liang is busy arranging things for Nanyang County. Zhang Xiu is about to settle down in Yuyang County, which means adjusting the official system of Yuyang County, which has an impact on the official layout of Nanyang.


    It''s a huge project.


    All this needs to be coordinated by Kuai Liang.


    So during this time, Kuai Liang was almost too busy.


    "Creak!"


    When the door was pushed open, a petty official entered in a hurry. After bowing, he said in a hurry: "Mr. Kuai, something''s wrong. Lord Yiji, he was killed. "


    Kuai Liang was shocked when his pupils shrank.


    Yi Ji is a high-ranking official in Jingzhou, and there is no lack of protection from samurai. How could he die suddenly in Xiangyang? What''s more, it is extremely difficult to kill Yi Ji in Xiangyang City.


    Kuai Liang took a deep breath, suppressed his agitation and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The petty official bowed himself to report: "I don''t know the details. The body of Yi nationality has just been sent to the gate of the prefecture. Look at the scars, they should have been killed. "


    Kuai Liang stood up and went straight out.


    When he came to the door, Kuai Liang looked carefully at the corpse of Yi Ji lying on the ground. After a long time, he raised his eyes and fell on the warrior who escorted Yi Ji back. He asked, "who is so bold to kill Yi Ji in Xiangyang City? He said, "what''s going on?"


    As a senior official in Jingzhou, Kuai Liang was very angry and aggressive.


    The samurai stood respectfully, did not dare to hide the slightest, immediately said that Yi Ji took them to rob and kill Zhang Xiu.


    After hearing this, Kuai Liang sighed.


    Heaven''s evil is still there!


    Don''t live if you do evil!


    Yi Ji went to rob and kill Zhang Xiu. It can only be said that he wanted to die.


    Kuai Liang immediately ordered the samurai to collect Yi Ji''s body, and then quickly returned to Zhou Mu Fu and went straight to Liu Biao''s study.


    After saluting Liu Biao, Kuai Liang reported: "Lord, Zhang Xiu left Xiangyang early in the morning. Yi Ji was humiliated by Zhang Xiu, but he was not angry. He took people to rob and kill him on the way. Instead, he was killed by Zhang Xiu. Now, Yi Ji is back. "


    When Liu Biao heard this, he was shocked.


    Is ejie dead?


    For Liu Biao, Yi Ji is not only an important confidant, but also an old friend and fellow townsman. Liu Biao thought that Yi Ji had been killed, and his anger grew. He said angrily, "Zhang Xiu is really hateful. Knowing that Yi Ji is my important minister, I dare to kill Yi Ji. "


    Kuai Liang listened to Liu Biao''s words, eyes, nose and heart, and did not express his opinion.


    At that day''s poetry meeting, Yi Ji voluntarily agreed to make a bet, which is reasonable. Now, the Iraqis have been killed instead of being robbed. This is the fault of the Iraqis themselves.


    Liu Biao was not reconciled, gritting his teeth: "Mr. Kuai, Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention to me at all. It''s too much to deceive. If you have any suggestions, you can teach Zhang Xiu a lesson. "


    At the moment, Liu Biao is full of anger.


    Under the anger, he lost his reason and said whatever he wanted.


    But Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "if Zhang Xiu wants to be based in Nanyang, she has to rely on the support of her Lord. The Lord wants to teach Zhang Xiu a lesson. There are many ways, not impossible. "


    "The key is that Yi Ji takes people to rob and kill Zhang Xiu first, which is the reason why Yi Ji is unreasonable first. As long as it is the people who participated in the poetry meeting, it is the reason why Yi Ji robbed and killed Zhang Xiu that day, he was humiliated by Zhang Xiu in the prefecture


    "Yi Ji did not succeed in robbing and killing Zhang Xiu. Instead, he was killed. It was a self inflicted result."


    Kuai Liang said: "in this case, if the LORD sent someone to teach Zhang Xiu a lesson, would it not make people laugh at him, thinking that the LORD was bullying and that there was no distinction between public and private."


    "Despicable suggestion, suppress this matter."


    "The best way to deal with it now is to ignore it. You can only be dumb and eat Coptis. Even if it''s bitter, you have to swallow it. What''s more, if Zhang Xiu wants to stay in the north of Nanyang County, the Lord needs Zhang Xiu to block the pressure from the north. It''s not suitable to quarrel with Zhang Xiu. "


    Kuai Liang said, "please think twice!"


    Liu Biao''s anger is hard to vent.


    According to his idea, he really wants to kill Zhang Xiu directly, and even has the idea of frustrating Zhang Xiu.


    However, he couldn''t help Zhang Xiu.


    This is the most embarrassing.


    "No, we can''t just let it go."


    Liu Biao gnashing his teeth, for the death of Yi Ji, if you say angry, but also angry, but more, and his own resentment of Zhang Xiu. This time, when Zhang Xiu was sent to Xiangyang, he suffered from depression and loss of face. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu gained fame and made a lot of money.


    Liu Biao wants revenge!


    The story of Yi Ji is just a fuse.


    It''s an excuse.


    Liu Biao looked at Kuai Liang and asked, "Sir, what can you do to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord, it''s very easy to bully the weak. But it''s almost impossible to deal with it in a proper way. "Liu Biao''s eyes darkened, and said: "I don''t care, no matter what tactics you use, whether it''s bullying or being righteous, in short, we can''t make Zhang Xiu better. I support you, so that you can use it at a critical time. If I had to think about everything, what would I do for you? "


    Kuai Liang was surprised when he raised his eyebrows.


    It''s not like Liu Biao''s style that Liu Biao should say such hurtful words.


    Kuai Liang did not like it either.


    Liu Biao, a courteous corporal, was very wise, but his attitude gradually changed with his foothold in Jingzhou. Now Liu Biao''s words are very disappointing.


    The king chooses the minister, the minister also chooses the king.


    He may or may not work for Liu Biao. What''s more, Liu Biao''s foothold in Jingzhou relies on the support of the CAI, Kuai and Huang families.


    Now, Liu Biao is a little self righteous.


    Kuai Liang didn''t want to use vicious tactics and advised: "Lord, we are allies with Zhang Xiu. There''s no need to fight too hard. Once the relationship between the two sides is stiff, it''s not good for the Lord. "


    Liu Biao big sleeve a brush, ah way: "I asked you, there is no countermeasure?"


    "Yes!"


    Kuai Liang answered directly.


    He shook his head in his heart. Instead of persuading, he answered directly. Anyway, he''s just a counselor, only responsible for giving advice. It''s not appropriate to think too much about Liu Biao.


    Liu Biao said, "what''s the plan?"


    Kuai Liang said: "the strategy of killing people with a knife."


    Liu Biao leaned forward slightly, with an expectant look on his face, and asked, "how to kill with a knife?"


    Kuai Liang''s eyes were sharp and he said: "Runan County in Yuzhou, east of Jingzhou, was occupied by the yellow scarf thieves Gong Du and Liu PI. They live in Runan County and want to expand all the time. They even want to enter Jingzhou. "


    "It''s just that the LORD sent heavy troops to the border, and Gong Du and Liu bicai failed to enter Jingzhou."


    "To deal with Zhang Xiu, the Lord can transfer the troops at the border between Nanyang County and Runan County, and then send someone to spread the news that Nanyang County is empty and Yuyang county will change its owner to Zhang Xiu."


    "In addition, the news that Zhang Xiu is about to get 50000 stone grains and thousands of sets of armor will be spread out."


    "As long as Gong Du and Liu PI get the news, they will go to Yuyang county. Zhang Xiu is attacked by Gong Du and Liu PI. Even if Zhang Xiu is strong enough to defeat the yellow scarf thief, her strength will be weakened. "


    Kuai Liang said, "if Zhang Xiu can''t stop the yellow scarf thieves, the Lord will fight them out, destroy them, build up his prestige, and deter Zhang Xiu at the same time."


    "Wonderful, wonderful plan!"


    When Liu Biao heard this, his face was full of joy.


    When Kuai Liang saw this, he looked gloomy.


    If you listen to Liu Biao, you will certainly adopt such a strategy. But in Kuai Liang''s heart, he didn''t want Liu Biao to adopt it. Although this strategy can be directed at Zhang Xiu, it will also have an impact on the people of Nanyang County.


    It''s a trick to hurt others and yourself.


    Liu Biao said, "Mr. Kuai, it''s up to you to arrange this."


    However, Kuai Liang was reluctant and said, "Lord, I''ve been busy with the transfer of Nanyang County officials. The whole Nanyang County''s various affairs, lets the humble post be in a mess, has no time to separate. So I beg you to leave this matter to someone else. "


    Liu Biao didn''t think much, so he said, "I''ll leave this matter to Liu first."


    Liu Xian, it''s Jingzhou. Don''t drive.


    Under Liu Biao''s command, he was also an important official of Liu Biao.


    Kuai Liang said, "I''ll leave at a humble position!"


    Liu Biao waved his hand and Kuai Liang walked out of the study. But Kuai Liang stood at the door of the study, looking at the closed study, with a touch of irony on his face, and gently shook his head.


    Old man, it''s not enough!


    He was disappointed in Liu Biao.


    Kuai Liang took a deep breath and went straight out of the yard. He left the prefecture with his entourage, but as soon as he got out of the prefecture, Kuai Liang fell to the ground with a plop and fainted.


    That scares the entourage.


    The entourage rushed into the prefecture, called the soldiers, carried Kuai Liang back to the prefecture, and invited a doctor to treat him.


    The doctor made a diagnosis and treatment, but he didn''t see any symptoms. Finally, he came to the conclusion that Kuai Liang was so busy recently that he was mentally impaired. He would be fine after a good rest.


    When Liu Biao heard the news, he came into the room, saw the haggard Kuai Liang, and said with concern: "Sir, what''s the matter? It''s very good. I just passed out of the prefecture


    He looked at the doctor and asked, "what''s wrong with you, sir?"


    "The doctor said:" back to zhoumu, Mr. Kuai didn''t have any disease, but he was too tired and his spirit was damaged. This kind of illness, does not need to take the medicine, only needs to recuperate


    Kuai Liang said: "my Lord, I''ve been too busy recently. I beg you to let me go home for a period of time. "


    Liu Biao suddenly raised his eyebrows. He just saw Kuai Liang''s wilting appearance. He couldn''t bear it. He nodded his head and agreed, "just do as Mr. Liu said. Don''t worry about it. Get well soon.""Thank you


    Kuai Liang quickly thanks.


    Liu Biao comforted Kuai Liang again before he got up and left.


    Kuai Liang didn''t stay much in the prefecture, so he left the prefecture with the help of his attendants. Back at Kuai''s house, Kuai Yue came in a hurry. He looked concerned and said, "I heard that my elder brother fainted in the prefecture. What''s the matter?"


    "Nothing!"


    Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "I pretended to be ill and fainted on purpose."


    "Ah


    Kuai Yue was surprised and said, "why?"


    Kuai Liang did not hide what happened in the prefecture, and finally said: "second younger brother, Liu Biao is old. He not only lost his enterprising spirit, but also became angry, regardless of the overall situation. Although such a person can be rampant for a while, it is difficult for him to survive for a long time. I fell ill on purpose to take this opportunity to fade out of Jingzhou officialdom. I will gradually aggravate my illness and then ask Liu Biao for dismissal. "


    Kuai Yue said, "what''s your plan, brother?"


    Kuai Liang''s eyes flashed a fine light, and said: "there''s no plan for the moment, but you''ll arrange someone to go north and tell Zhang Xiu the news that both Liu PI and Gong in Runan may attack Yuyang County, so that he can take precautions."


    Kuai Yue said: "brother, are you optimistic about Zhang Xiu?"


    Kuai Liang said: "Zhang Xiu is not simple. She has a chance to succeed. For our Kuai family, it doesn''t matter whether we look good or not. Now to send him the news is just to earn a favor. As far as we are concerned, it''s easy for Zhang Xiu to give a timely help. "


    Kuai Yue nodded and said, "I understand!"


    "Go


    Kuai Liang waved his hand.


    Kuai Yue bowed his hand and left.

 Chapter 29

    After entering Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu was much more relaxed. In Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu''s spirit has been tense, worried about unexpected treat.


    Now, finally out of Xiangyang.


    However, during this period, Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying did not have any substantive contact, and he did not take the initiative to get close, because there is no need now, and there is plenty of time in the future.


    On the contrary, Xu Shu was full of curiosity.


    Xu Shu knew Huang Yueying and knew that Zhang Xiu didn''t stay in Xiangyang for a few days. But in this short period of time, Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying even know each other and let Huang Yueying go north to Yuyang county.


    It''s shocking.


    You know, Huang Yueying is Huang Chengyan''s daughter, to some extent, representing the Huang family.


    Zhang Xiu''s relationship with the Huang family surprised Xu Shu. However, Xu Shu is happy to see its success, because if Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying can come together, it will be a great help to Zhang Xiu.


    A group of people rushed into Xinye and soon joined the army.


    The soldiers under Zhang''s command are more than five thousand skinny. Originally, there was a shortage of food in the army. During the period when Zhang Xiu left, they all lived frugally, tightened their belts, and looked forward to the stars and the moon waiting for Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu appeared, everyone gathered together, a pair of eyes light fell on Zhang Xiu, full of excitement.


    "The general is back!"


    "General, you are back at last.


    "General, has the negotiation been successful?"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cries and inquiries are constantly ringing out.


    Every soldier''s face, there are expectations, more a trace of uneasiness and uneasiness. If Zhang Xiu goes south to Xiangyang and the negotiation fails, it means that they are completely isolated.


    They are looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s return with good news.


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed and said, "Huang Zhao, call all the soldiers together and let them sit cross legged. I will have something to say."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhaode orders, go to arrange it immediately.


    Under the coordination of Huang Zhao, all the officers and men in the army gathered.


    Facing all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu said in a loud voice: "sons, I''m going to come back from Xiangyang. We made it


    "Boom!"


    Among the soldiers, there was a shout of the tsunami.


    At this moment, countless soldiers cheered.


    At this moment, countless soldiers hugged and wept.


    During the period when Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang, the army was short of food, the soldiers were not fed and clothed, and they were afraid all day.


    Now, they have survived.


    They waited until Zhang Xiu came back.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the soldiers who cry with joy, the soldiers who shout loudly, the soldiers who vent their emotions, and a bright smile appears on her angular face.


    It''s all worth it!


    During this trip to Xiangyang, he not only gained a foothold, food and weapons, but also military confidence.


    After this incident, the army was determined.


    Zhang Xiu did not disturb the cheers of the soldiers, standing quietly, letting the soldiers vent. Nearly a quarter of an hour later, the noisy scene gradually quieted down, and everyone''s eyes focused on Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and continued: "this time, we will negotiate with Liu Biao and reach an agreement. Nanyang County to the north of Yuyang county is under our command. "


    "In addition, Liu Biao will send 50000 stone grain, 5000 swords and 3000 sets of armor. In addition to this batch of grain and armor, the Cai family in Jingzhou will also send 100000 Jin of grain, 1000 swords and 500 sets of armor. "


    "With this grain, we will have no worries about food and clothing."


    Zhang Xiu clenched her fist and waved it in the air, saying: "we''ve survived the hardships. Next, our life will be better and better."


    After listening, the soldiers cried out.


    Countless soldiers look excited, the hearts of incomparable joy.


    The scene is very lively.


    After announcing the contents of the negotiation, Zhang Xiu ordered the whole army to go north to Yuyang county.


    As the troops were on their way, Xu Shu came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, now the morale of the army is stable, we still need more propaganda to stabilize the morale of the army and consolidate the morale."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to publicize?"


    Xu Shu said with a smile: "it''s very simple to find some eloquent soldiers to publicize the deeds of the Lord in Xiangyang City. The Lord''s great power in Xiangyang can convince the soldiers. "


    Zhang Xiu brightened her eyes and said, "what Yuan Zhi said is true. You can arrange it."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu answered and arranged.


    The team continued on their way, and Xu Shu arranged for it.


    Soon after, soldiers in the army publicized Zhang Xiu''s fighting in Xiangyang against Kuai Liang, Li Heng, Yi Ji and many other things that happened in Xiangyang.


    This is to highlight the difficulties Zhang Xiu encountered in Xiangyang, let us know that Zhang Xiu is not easy, but also let the soldiers cherish the hard won in front of them and appreciate Zhang Xiu''s efforts.On the way to Yuyang County, sentinels came from behind. The sentinel quickly came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "general, this is a letter from the Kuai family in Xiangyang. The messenger said that this letter is very important. Please open it yourself


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly. After reading it, she handed it to Xu Shu and said, "Sir, have a look."


    Xu Shu also read it quickly and said, "this letter is written by Kuai Liang. Kuai Liang is a man who will not cheat. Liu Biao let Gong Du and Liu PI come to Jingzhou in order to block the Lord. It seems that there will be a big war soon after the Lord arrives in Yuyang county. "


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "Gong Du and Liu PI are not enough to be afraid. As a matter of top priority, we should first arrive in Yuyang county and get a foothold as soon as possible. This is the most important thing. "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu also feels time is pressing, no longer delay time, ordered full speed forward.


    The team set out and soon arrived in Yuyang county.


    Yuyang county magistrate has been informed by Liu Biao for a long time, and has been ready for the handover. When Zhang Xiu arrived, the magistrate of Yuyang county and Zhang Xiu met. After a simple handover, they left Yuyang county directly.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about it either.


    After he took the soldiers into the city, he stationed in the city, and then asked Xu Shu to check the situation of Yuyang county. An hour later, Xu Shu came back, but with a bitter face and a helpless look.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Seeing Xu Shu''s expression, Zhang Xiu inquired, "Yuanzhi, is the situation not optimistic?"


    Xu Shu sighed: "my Lord, I''m not optimistic. Today''s Yuyang county is as poor as a house. There is no grain in the granary of the county government; there is no decent weapon in the armory. The garrison in Yuyang county is old, weak, sick and disabled. "


    "In particular, all the assistant officials in Yuyang county have gone."


    "Now there are only some old soldiers in the county government."


    "Now Yuyang county has been completely emptied, leaving only a mess for us."


    Xu Shu said: "despicable speculation, this is most likely Liu Biao under the order, so will withdraw clean."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi, Liu Biao is not very friendly to us. Although I''m very poor now, there will be food and weapons soon, and everything will be over. Moreover, it''s a good thing that Yuyang county is empty. It''s convenient for us to act, and no one will hinder us. "


    Xu Shu thought carefully and said with a smile, "there is a certain truth in what the LORD said."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the vacant official posts in Yuyang county should be filled as soon as possible, and the operation of Yuyang county should be standardized as soon as possible. Liu Biao wants to embarrass us, but we have to make some achievements in Yuyang county to let Liu Biao know that his small skills are not on the table. "


    "Here it is


    In Xu Shu''s eyes, he also had fighting spirit.


    As the saying goes, governing a big country is like governing a small country. He is confident and can handle the affairs of Yuyang County well.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier entered outside the hall.


    The soldier looked flustered, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "general, there''s something wrong. A group of people from outside the north gate called for the general to hand in money and grain, or Yuyang county will be broken. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "who is the bearer?"


    The soldier said, "the leader has bird feathers on his head, bells around his waist and strange clothes. He calls himself Ganning of Bajun."

 Chapter 30

    After hearing Gan Ning''s name, Xu Shu''s face changed slightly and reminded him, "Lord, I know Gan Ning in my humble position. He was a native of Bajun County in Yizhou. He used to be a general in Yizhou. Later, he was dissatisfied with Liu Zhang, so he set up an army to make trouble. "


    "After the defeat of Ganning, he took people to Nanyang and occupied the area of Nanyang."


    "Ganning is very good at martial arts, and has the courage of many people. Not only that, but all the soldiers under his command are rebellious, brave and good at fighting. They are very powerful. "


    "Gan Ning likes to put a bird''s feather on his head and a bell on his waist. He is called Jinfan thief."


    Xu Shu said: "this man is very difficult to deal with."


    Zhang Xiu stood up and said with a smile, "no matter how difficult it is, we have to face it. Let''s go out of Ganning later


    For Gan Ning, Zhang Xiu looks forward to it.


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang Xiu took Xu Shu out of the county government, then turned over and went straight to the north gate.


    At this time, the north gate.


    There are more than 800 soldiers in the array, one by one rebellious and fierce.


    The leader is Gan Ning.


    Most of the people in Shu are not tall, but Gan Ning is tall, about 180 cm. He is less than 30 years old now, and his martial arts is at its peak. At this moment, Gan Ning, holding a six foot long sword, straddled on the horse, majestic.


    After Ganning called for battle, he didn''t attack the city, just waiting.


    He is waiting for Zhang Xiu to come out.


    If we can get food without any effort, that is the best result.


    All of a sudden, Gan Ning''s ears moved and looked into the city. He saw a white figure coming at a fast speed.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu, dressed in a white robe and a white horse with a golden spear in her hand, galloped from her horse. Approaching the gate of the city, Zhang Xiu suddenly reined in his horse. He saw Herod''s horse hissing, then his front hooves raised and fell to the ground.


    Ganning eyes pupil a shrink, face a more serious.


    Come on, it''s not easy.


    Gan Ning thought rotation, roared: "boy, you are Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was calm and calm. She rode out of the city. She stopped only 20 steps away from Ganning. She said with a smile, "I''m Zhang Xiu. I don''t know what happened when ganxingba came to Yuyang county."


    Gan Ning said forcefully, "I heard Liu Biao will give you 50000 stone grain, 5000 swords and 3000 sets of armor. Lao Tzu''s condition is simple. When Liu Biao''s grain comes, you will give me 20000 stone grain, 2000 swords and 1000 sets of armor. I''m willing to promise that no one dares to harass Yuyang county. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to laugh.


    Gan Ning said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "what I laugh at is that in my lifetime, I will also meet people who collect protection fees. Now, in front of me, you are begging for food, weapons and armor, and saying that no one is harassing Yuyang county. Isn''t that the protection fee? "


    Gan Ning snorted and said, "you say it''s protection fee, that''s right."


    Zhang Xiu said, "if I don''t give it to you?"


    Gan Ning raised a smile and said: "you promise me the conditions, I''ll take my head to guarantee that no one dares to invade Yuyang County, and I won''t invade Yuyang county. If you don''t agree, I''m afraid Yuyang county will not be peaceful since then. Even today, Yuyang county will be broken. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I have heard that Ganning, Bajun, is a man with great ambition. She dares to fight against Liu Zhang, and is not afraid of power or death. How can such a man be reduced to a protection fee? "


    Words, with a touch of irony.


    Gan Ning did not answer and said, "in a word, will you give me food. If you don''t give it, Ganning will be merciless. "


    Zhang Xiu said flatly, "no!"


    Gan Ning said: "toast, don''t drink, boy, you want to die! If you want to die, I will help you. "


    Then he picked up his sword.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not that I''m looking for death, but that Ben will think that Gan xingba''s spirit and pattern are too small. Will you be satisfied with just 20000 stone grains? "


    Gan Ning''s eyes narrowed and asked, "what do you mean?"


    He hears the implication of Zhang Xiu and seems to be planning to give him more. But Gan Ning also knew that Zhang Xiu must have a plot to say so, otherwise she would not say so.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Gan Ning, how about a bet?"


    Gan Ning said, "what''s the bet?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "you Ganning are the chief General of 800 Jinfan Erlang, while I am the chief General of Xiliang army. It''s up to you and me to win. "


    "If I win, you will obey me unconditionally and work for me."


    "If I lose, I will hand over 50000 stone grain, 5000 swords and 3000 sets of armor."


    "How dare you gamble?"


    With a faint smile, Zhang Xiu said, "of course, if you dare not gamble, it''s nothing. Just come from and go back, and don''t show up in front of me. "Xu Shu was behind Zhang Xiu. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he reminded him, "Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao: "Yuanzhi, don''t worry!"


    Seeing this, Xu Shu could only press his mind.


    However, Xu Shu also knew that in the current situation, it was not easy to wipe out the 800 Jinfan thieves in Ganning. The best way is to take it for your own use, which is the best way.


    For a military man like Gan Ning, gambling is a kind of provocation.


    The more proud you are, the more you care about your face.


    Xu Shu understands Zhang Xiu''s intention, which is to motivate Gan Ning to meet this challenge. It can not only solve the immediate crisis, but also take Gan Ning as one''s own use. This is a strategy of killing two birds with one stone.


    Gan Ning''s eyes turned, thinking about Zhang Xiu''s strategy.


    Zhang Xiu did not give Gan Ning too much time to think, once again said: "Gan Ning, can you dare to fight?"


    "Gan Ning, dare to fight my Lord."


    Xu Shu followed and yelled.


    "Gan Ning, dare to fight!"


    "Gan Ning, how dare you fight?"


    ¡­¡­


    Inside the tower, all the soldiers of the Xiliang army were shouting. A soldier''s cry, gathered together, like thunder, reverberated in the air, has great prestige.


    Ganning at the moment, but can not retreat.


    As a general, especially in the army, if he is timid in the face of Zhang Xiu''s tetany, he will not be able to face the soldiers under his command and control the army.


    "What a cunning Zhang Xiu!"


    Ganning heart, secretly scold Zhang Xiu cunning.


    He is not a brainless person. He knows that this is Zhang Xiu''s method. However, Gan Ning did not intend to retreat.


    He would rather not fear war than war.


    Gan Ning''s face was full of pride and fighting spirit. With a wave of the sword in his hand, he said forcefully: "Zhang Xiu, your challenge is up to me. But the terms of our bet have to be changed. "


    "Oh, how to change it?"


    Zhang Xiu face more smile, as long as Gan Ning dare to fight, it will fall into his trap.


    He will win this battle!


    Gan Ning said forcefully, "if you lose, it''s not only to give you food. You, Zhang Xiu, have to obey Laozi and my arrangement."


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu said directly, "but you will be defeated in this battle."


    Ganning tut two taunts, joked: "well said, don''t let the soldiers shoot cold arrows to help after a fight."


    Zhang Xiu smiles. She holds the tiger''s head in her right hand and holds a gun. Her left hand stretches out. She hooks her finger toward Gan Ning and says defiantly, "come on, let''s see the style of Jinfan thief."


    There is no doubt about the provocative attitude.


    "Look


    Ganning drink, gallop out.


    He swung the long knife in his hand and cut it off. Gan Ning''s speed is very fast, a knife falls, only to see a streamer in the air flash, the blade has arrived in front of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 31

    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Zhang Xiu cold drink, tiger head golden gun out, like a poisonous dragon out of the sea, impartial, head-on hit Gan Ning this knife.


    "Ding!"


    The tip of the gun collided with the blade, making a crisp sound and bursting out a dazzling spark.


    As soon as they met, they withdrew.


    "There''s something you can do!"


    Ganning eyes, more dignified. In his first encounter with Zhang Xiu, he failed to find out the details of Zhang Xiu. Then he knew that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts were extraordinary, and he also played a twelve point spirit.


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and continued: "this will be more than just some skills. Next, you will be more surprised. As I said, in this war, you will surely lose. "


    "Rampant!"


    Gan Ning disdained to smile and swung his sword to attack again.


    His Sabre moves open and close, aggressive, no defense. This is the most lethal move. Because when you meet such an opponent, it''s easy to be intimidated by the momentum of the other side. Once the courage is weakened, without the courage to fight, it will be difficult to resist the attack of the other side.


    Although Gan Ning is fierce, Zhang Xiu is happy and unafraid.


    In the face of Ganning''s strong attack, Zhang Xiu shot a golden gun with a tiger''s head to fight back quickly. Sometimes the gun in his hand is flexible and changeable, sometimes it''s just and fierce, sometimes it''s as fast as lightning.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu does not lack strength.


    His strength is not weak at all.


    Two people fight each other and kill each other. In a short time, they can''t tell the difference. In this scene, the soldiers on both sides were very nervous.


    Xu Shu was also proficient in martial arts and had some insight. But when he saw Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning who were fighting, he could not tell who was better.


    Gan Ning''s soldiers are both nervous and shocked. In their view, Ganning''s martial arts is already superb, and there is no doubt that Zhang Xiu is also so brave.


    Soldiers on both sides, shouting for their respective generals.


    The shouts kept ringing.


    Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning fought fiercely. Two people you come and I go, kill very happy. When Zhang Xiu came back from later generations, he did it several times, but every time he met someone, his martial arts skills were not as good as him, and he had never met anyone who could completely block him.


    In front of the eyes of Ganning, let Zhang Xiu''s martial arts, to play.


    The two men first fought on the horses, then gradually fell from the horses, and then fought with weapons. In the end, their weapons were knocked down and became unarmed fighting.


    The fight is getting worse.


    Fighting with bare hands, Zhang Xiu is stronger.


    In later generations of the army, he systematically studied the Military Boxing. Every move is aimed at the key, not for beauty, but for killing the enemy. This kind of move is ferocious, overbearing and extremely ferocious.


    Ganning and Zhang Xiu fight for a moment, found that Zhang Xiu lost his weapon, it seems to have changed a person, extremely ferocious.


    Close to the body short hit, lift Yin Chui ear, all to the key of his body hello. Under the attack of Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning soon lost the rhythm and had some clumsiness.


    "No, we have to change our strategy."


    Ganning side to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu, while thinking in the heart.


    His current situation has fallen into the rhythm of Zhang Xiu, which is the worst result.


    In the long run, he will lose.


    When Gan Ning resisted, he had an idea. Zhang Xiu''s melee was so fierce that he changed his way. Seeing that Zhang Xiu is coming, Gan Ning doesn''t hide and rushes to Zhang Xiu with open arms.


    Gan Ning''s plan is to hold Zhang Xiu and wrestle with her. As long as holding Zhang Xiu''s waist, he can swing Zhang Xiu up and down, and change the situation.


    "Gan Ning, it''s a waste of effort!"


    Zhang Xiu drinks and sees through Gan Ning''s intention.


    At the moment when Ganning is about to contact Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu turns her fist into her palm, and she reaches out like lightning, grabs Ganning''s right wrist and jerks it. This little bit of strength made Gan Ning lose his center of gravity and stagger forward.


    Next moment, Zhang Xiu drags Ganning''s right hand and turns around, leaning against Ganning''s chest.


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu drinks, grabs Gan Ning''s right hand with both hands and pulls it down.


    Gan Ning''s body is leaning on the back of Zhang Xiu.


    Gan Ning is grabbed by Zhang Xiu''s arm and wants to take advantage of his left hand to tie Zhang Xiu''s neck. But before he did, he felt that Gan Ning''s back was against him, and a great force broke out from Zhang Xiu, which made his uncontrolled body fly up, crossed an arc in the air, and fell in front of Zhang Xiu.


    This is a back fall!


    Zhang Xiu with the help of the strength of the back, a beautiful back fall, Gan Ning fell to the ground.


    "Ah


    Ganning landing moment, back and ground impact, severe impact, the viscera seem to vibrate, pain he can''t help but make a sound.


    Body, like a broken frame.


    Zhang Xiu fell down and knelt down with her left foot, bent her right knee, and pressed her chest like lightning. Then she restrained her left and right hands and said in a deep voice, "you lost, Ganning.""I, I,..."


    Gan Ning opened his mouth to retort, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again. His angular cheek was red, and his eyes were not willing.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she was determined.


    With what Gan Ning said just now, Zhang Xiu firmly believes that Gan Ning can''t cheat. If Gan Ning wants to cheat, he won''t stop talking and talk like this. Therefore, Zhang Xiu directly let go and got up, no longer with Gan Ning.


    Zhang Xiu clapped her hands, picked up the golden spear and said, "you and I have won the first World War. What do you say?"


    Ganning endure the pain of the body, also stood up.


    He was very reluctant.


    Lost!


    He was defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu saw Gan Ning''s expression, her eyes narrowed, and continued: "it''s just that I didn''t ask for it. As the saying goes, if I force you to carry out the agreement, I''m afraid it''s not in your heart. You are not allowed to come back to Ganyang county. Previous bets are considered farts. "


    Ganning''s face changed again and again.


    In front of so many soldiers, if he violates the gambling agreement, what do his subordinates think of him?


    He can''t get through it himself.


    "Plop!"


    Gan Ning clenched his teeth, knelt down on the ground and said, "a man''s eldest husband, a word comes out, and it''s hard to trace it. Now that I''ve made a bet, I won''t break it. "


    "Ganning, meet the Lord!"


    He knocked his head on the ground and hit it hard.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Gan Ning who knelt down and said in a deep voice: "Gan Ning, if you want to be clear, you must serve me sincerely after you surrender to me, and you must obey the dispatch and military orders. If you don''t want to, you can leave with someone. I don''t ask for it


    Gan Ning said: "Gan Ning is obedient to the Lord, so he should obey his instructions."


    "I believe you!"


    Zhang Xiu went to Ganning, reached for Ganning and asked, "how can you arrange this group of soldiers under your command?"


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is to receive 800 soldiers from Ganning. These 800 soldiers are all elite and brave. Even the Xiliang army under Zhang Xiu''s command can''t compare with these people in terms of strength.


    However, Zhang Xiu will not take the initiative.


    The specific arrangement is subject to Gan Ning''s opinions and depends on Gan Ning''s handling.


    Gan Ning turned to face the soldiers under his command and said in a loud voice: "you have clearly heard my agreement with my lord just now. I was defeated by my Lord, and I was convinced. Since then, I have followed his instructions. "


    "You followed me from the beginning. We are not related by blood, but we are brothers and relatives. "


    "So I don''t force you."


    "Those who are willing to stay and work for the LORD with me, go to the left side of the sword. If you don''t want to stay, I''ll give you money and let you go home. "


    Ganning said, "now, you make a decision."


    As soon as the words came out, the soldiers quickly went to the left. At a glance, the whole camp is moving, no one is willing to leave, all willing to follow Zhang Xiu with Gan Ning.

 Chapter 32

    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu also nodded her approval.


    It is the best result that all the soldiers under Ganning''s command can surrender together. From this, we can see Ganning''s ability to control the army.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said: "after the negotiation between Gan Ning and Liu Biao, all the areas north of Yuyang County belong to Gan Ning. You have just returned to our general, and you will not be assigned official posts for the time being, but you will command all the soldiers, including the Xiliang army under my command. The soldiers in the army are up to you. After winning all the areas north of Yuyang County, we will be rewarded. "


    "I will obey the order!"


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    At the moment, Gan Ning''s heart is quite happy, and she feels that Zhang Xiu is worth following.


    Because Zhang Xiu trusted him.


    Although there is no official position, Zhang Xiu has given her enough rights, which is trust and respect.


    In fact, the reason why Zhang Xiu dares to do so is that she has a general understanding of Gan Ning and knows that Gan Ning is a loyal man. If Gan Ning is a villain with two sides, Zhang Xiu can''t entrust him with an important task.


    On the basis of a certain understanding, he entrusted Ganning with an important task. This kind of kindness can win over Ganning.


    Throughout the history of Ganning, when he was in Yizhou, he was not trusted by Liu Zhang, so he chose to rebel against Liu Zhang. When he was in Jingzhou, he surrendered to Liu Biao, but he was not taken seriously by Liu Biao. Liu Biao threw him under Huang Zu''s command, and he did not get Huang Zu''s trust.


    In the end, we can only submit to Sun Quan of Jiangdong.


    Under Sun Quan''s command, he was respected, and then he showed his talent and worked for Sun Quan wholeheartedly.


    This is the death of a scholar for a confidant!


    Ganning said: "Lord, the last stronghold is between Xinye and Yuyang. In the Shanzhai, there are tens of thousands of Jin of grain, as well as some money and weapons. At the end of the day, the general implored him to take the soldiers back to the stronghold and transport all the grain to Yuyang county. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she frowned.


    Gan Ning found that Zhang Xiu''s expression changed, and his heart was also clapping.


    Don''t you believe him?


    Is what Zhang Xiu said just now a polite way of saying that, on the surface, he would be given military power, but in fact, he would be hindered?


    For a time, Gan Ning also played drums in his heart.


    I feel that if the soldiers in Bayang County want to stay, I can explain. Please send the rest of the soldiers to come back with me. "


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, said: "Xing Ba, this will believe in your ability, more believe in your person.". What we will consider is how long it will take for you to return to the Shanzhai? In particular, we have to escort food. I''m afraid it will delay time. "


    Gan Ning was puzzled.


    Does it have anything to do with escorting food?


    Gan Ning pressed down his doubts and replied, "I''m afraid it will take at least half a month to report back to you, including the transportation of grain. If you just go on the road, it won''t take a few days. The main reason is that there are some horses and grain in the Shanzhai. It takes a lot of time to transport these materials. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "in half a month, the yellow scarf thieves like Liu PI and Gong Du in Runan County are likely to attack Yuyang county. Ben will hope that you can participate in the next battle. "


    Gan Ning doubted: "Gong Du and Liu PI have been in Runan County. How can they come to Jingzhou? What''s more, Liu Biao''s troops are stationed at the border. Even if Gong Du and Liu PI want to enter, it''s impossible! "


    Zhang Xiu explained: "I negotiated with Liu Biao in Xiangyang and got a lot of benefits. Liu Biao was not angry in his heart. In order to revenge me, he arranged for someone to go to Runan County to spread the news that I got food, and he was even ready to withdraw the border garrison. Do you know that Ben will get grain and armor to rob Yuyang County, let alone Gong Du and Liu Pi? "


    "Who''s the message from?" asked Ganning


    Zhang Xiu replied, "don''t drive in Jingzhou. The news from Kuai Liang."


    "Hiss!"


    Ganning took a cool breath.


    If the information is sent by Kuai Liang, it is absolutely accurate.


    Ganning heart, more surprised at Zhang Xiu intelligence, unexpectedly and Kuai Liang set up a relationship. But in his heart, he was also secretly ashamed that he had misunderstood Zhang Xiu just now.


    Gan Ning knelt down on one knee, clasped his fist and said: "the last general just now, he suspected the Lord and asked him to surrender his crime!"


    Zhang Xiu picked up Gan Ning and said, "if I use you, I will trust you."


    "Thank you


    Ganning just stood up.


    Xu Shu came forward and suggested, "Lord, I have a plan for my humble position."


    Hearing Xu Shu''s words, Zhang Xiu introduced Gan Ning: "xingba, this is my military adviser Xu Shu and Xu Yuanzhi."


    Gan Ning startled: "are you Xu Shu?"


    Although Ganning was in Nanyang County, he knew the situation of Jingzhou like the palm of his hand. He knew that Xu Shu was a young man with outstanding talent. In Ganning''s initial cognition of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was only a martial artist from the north, not a famous figure. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiulian and Xu Shu were recruited under his command, which was beyond expectation.


    Zhang Xiu answered and asked, "Yuanzhi, what''s your plan?"


    Xu Shu''s expression was calm, and he replied: "Lord, general Gan wants to take soldiers to escort food. Why don''t you let general Gan ambush outside and return in no hurry.""When Liu PI and Gong Du arrived in Yuyang county with their troops, the Lord and general Gan attacked the yellow scarf thief and beat them all in one go."


    "Lord, there is only one place in Yuyang county. If you want to capture the rest of the place, you are far from enough. In particular, it is far from enough to capture the important town of Nanyang County like Wan county. "


    Xu Shu said: "therefore, to defeat Liu PI and Gong Du, and then collect their elite, is a shortcut to expand the army."


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "this strategy is feasible. How do you like it?"


    Ganning said, "there will be no opinions at the end of the day."


    Zhang xiudao: "since so, so arrange."


    Ganning said: "the end of this will act!"


    Immediately, Ganning mobilized his soldiers to set out, and did not stay much in Yuyang county.


    Xu Shu looked at Gan Ning''s back and thought deeply in his eyes. He said with a straight face: "my Lord, Gan Ning is a man of great promise. But does the Lord believe that he will come back? "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "we should not doubt the employment of people. For me, Ganning is now joining Yuyang County, and we are just like a tiger adding wings. But if Gan Ning leaves here and doesn''t come back, it won''t hurt me. With one thing, you can see a person''s true or false. Why not


    Xu Shu said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "let''s go back to the city!"


    Xu Shu nodded and went to the city with Zhang Xiu. At this time, a cry suddenly rang out on the tower: "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    This cry, suddenly sounded.


    In the open space, everyone can be clear.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    ¡­¡­


    Countless soldiers screamed, and their voices echoed inside and outside the city tower.


    Zhang Xiu listens to the soldier''s cry, smiles and leads Xu Shu into the city. Back to the county government in the city, Zhang Xiujing went to the courtyard where Huang Yueying lived. With a look of guilt, he said, "Miss Huang, now the county has just been settled, and everything is waiting for prosperity. Not only the county magistrate is vacant, but also the petty officials below are vacant, and materials are extremely scarce."


    "So I need time to adjust."


    "I promise your workshop will wait. After Liu Biao''s grain and weapons are delivered, everything in Yuyang county will be in order, so there will be no problem. "


    Zhang Xiu made an explanation.


    Huang Yueying smiles and says slowly: "no problem, general Zhang is busy with you. In Yuyang County, there are Huang''s industries. Next, I will go back to Huang''s residence. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I have wronged Miss Huang!"


    "Don''t be wronged!" said Huang Yueying


    Two people simple chat chat, Zhang Xiu did not stay more, get up to leave, to deal with the things in hand.

 Chapter 33

    Zhang Xiu''s whole mind is in the administrative affairs of the county government. Nowadays, the county government is short of assistant officials, and all kinds of government affairs are overstocked. There are a lot of things to deal with, which is very slow.


    When Zhang Xiu is busy, Xu Shu enters the study in a hurry.


    Xu Shu arched his hand and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, put down the brush in the hand, look up a way: "Yuan Zhi, what''s the matter?"


    Xu Shu, with a dignified look, replied, "because there is no grain in the county government''s grain depot, and there is not much grain left in the army, so he sent people to buy grain from Deng''s firm."


    "Purchasers found that the price of Deng''s food was more than five times higher than the normal market price. Not only that, the food of Deng''s company is also limited to purchase and does not supply in large quantities. "


    "In today''s situation, we can''t buy food," Xu said


    Zhang Xiu asked, "who is in charge of Deng''s business?"


    Xu Shu replied: "the name of the shopkeeper of Deng''s business firm is Deng Chen, a son of the Deng family in Xinye, Nanyang County. The Deng family in Nanyang County is a powerful family in Xinye. There are thousands of private soldiers in the family, and their strength is very strong. "


    Zhang xiudao: "so, is it the Deng family who obstructs it?"


    Xu Shu explained: "it''s not that the Deng family is acting as a hindrance. It''s that the Deng family has been hoarding grain and driving up prices in order to make huge profits. Not just for us, but for others. "


    "It''s a common phenomenon."


    "Especially when my Lord came to Yuyang County for the first time, he didn''t have a firm foothold. The current situation is not suitable for provoking the Deng family. If it is against the Deng family, it will affect the development of the Lord in Yuyang county


    Xu Shu said: "what''s more, if the Lord wants to develop, he also needs to rely on the power of the aristocratic families, otherwise he will have difficulty."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "the power of the aristocratic family can be relied on. But this premise is that the aristocratic families obey my orders. If the aristocratic families don''t listen to my orders, I will destroy them as well. "


    "In troubled times, people''s lives are like grass, and there are constant fights. Whoever has an army and strength has the right to speak."


    "The Deng family doesn''t cooperate until he does."


    "Come on, let''s go to Deng''s firm."


    Zhang Xiu stood up directly and went out.


    Xu Shu quickly followed and worried: "Lord, do you really want to move Deng''s business?"


    Zhang Xiu stopped, with a cold look on her face, and said: "if the Deng family is willing to cooperate, I will let bygones be bygones. If the Deng family thinks I''m a bully, I''ll make him regret it. First look at Deng Chen''s situation, and then decide whether to start. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu went straight out.


    Xu Shu was worried that the situation was out of control and could only follow Zhang Xiu closely. After they got out of the county government, they turned over and went straight to Deng''s business.


    Deng''s business is located in the north of Yuyang County, not far from the county government. If you walk, it''s only a quarter of an hour''s journey. If you take a carriage, you can arrive in half a quarter of an hour.


    At this time, outside the business, there were sporadic people who came to buy food. It''s just that the faces of the common people are embarrassed.


    Because food prices are too high.


    In the past, money that could buy a bucket of grain could not buy a quarter now.


    Food prices are going up too fast.


    When Zhang Xiu and Xu Shu arrived, Deng Chen, the manager of Deng''s firm, said with a smile: "Mr. Xu is here again. I don''t know how much money Mr. Xu has brought this time? However, my business, Deng''s, is limited to purchase and can''t buy too much at one time. "


    Xu Shu wants to speak, but is stopped by Zhang Xiu.


    It''s useless to reason with these unscrupulous businessmen. It depends on who has the bigger fist.


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "it''s said that the price of Deng''s food has increased more than five times. What''s more, can''t we even buy grain in large quantities now? "


    Deng Chen way: "you are?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "I will be Zhang Xiu!"


    Deng Chen made a look of surprise, and quickly arched his hand: "it turned out that general Zhang was in front of him, disrespectful, disrespectful. I''ve heard of General Zhang''s reputation for a long time. You''ve captured Cai Mao wisely and fought with Jingzhou literati. It''s really powerful. "


    It''s the so-called "hand without smile".


    Deng Chen a mouth, say Zhang Xiu''s good words only, don''t mention other at all.


    Zhang Xiu was not affected, said: "less nonsense, the future of Deng''s business, is for food prices."


    Deng Chen''s face was stiff.


    Did not expect, Zhang Xiu oil salt does not enter.


    However, Deng Chen is not afraid of Zhang Xiu. He looks serious and says solemnly: "General Zhang, the rise of food prices is a fact. It''s not only Yuyang County, but also all over the country that the price of grain is going up crazily. No wonder we are. After all, after the rise of grain prices, the prices of bulk grain we bought have all gone up. There is no reason why we bought grain and did business at a loss. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what about the purchase restriction?"


    Deng Chen way: "storehouse grain is insufficient, also can restrict buy."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and looked at Deng Chen. With a sneer, she said, "Deng Chen, you can coax the ghost. I don''t want to talk nonsense. I''m going to ask you again whether the grain price can be reduced to the market price. Can the purchase restriction be completely suspended? ""No!"


    Deng Chen''s firm answer.


    As a member of the Deng family, Deng Chen has enough confidence. After all, he came from the Deng family in Nanyang, and he came from a powerful family.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a kill chance, said: "good, I hope you will not regret."


    The corner of Deng Chen''s mouth raised a successful smile and said, "I don''t regret what Deng Chen does."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu turned and left.


    Xu Shu followed and left Deng''s business.


    "I Pooh!"


    Deng Chen looks at Zhang Xiu''s back and spits a mouthful of thick phlegm to the ground. His face is full of disdain. In Deng Chen''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is just a clay leg. I''m afraid the so-called war of words among Jingzhou literati is also made up by Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu.


    Deng Chen looked at the others with a sarcastic look on his face and scolded: "if you don''t buy grain, you can go away quickly. If you want to buy cheap food, dream about it. "


    One by one, the people who buy grain are helpless.


    Zhang Xiu took Xu Shu back, not directly back to the county government, but straight to the barracks.


    Xu Shu said, "what will the Lord do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a cold look, said: "Deng''s business, collude with thieves, intent to make trouble, when the punishment!"


    "Ah


    On hearing this, Xu Shu exclaimed.


    He never thought that Zhang Xiu would choose such a result, but it was a direct battle.


    Xu Shu said: "Lord, is this arrangement too hasty?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "Yuanzhi, this is a troubled time, not a peaceful and prosperous time. If you want to deal with the wicked, you must be more fierce than the wicked. If you want to deal with bad people, you have to be worse than bad people. "


    "Deng''s business is a cancer."


    "If we don''t get rid of it, more people will suffer."


    "Deng Chen, who was born in the Deng family, thought I didn''t dare to do it. He was really conceited. Don''t say he''s just a shopkeeper of the Deng family. Even if he''s the head of the Deng family, I''ll kill him directly. "


    Zhang Xiu strong way: "I want to have a foothold in Yuyang County, will never be afraid."


    Xu Shu said, "what the LORD said is true."


    After arriving at the barracks, Zhang Xiu quickly mobilized the army and took the soldiers straight to Deng''s business.


    This time, Zhang Xiu brought 800 soldiers.


    All the soldiers were fierce. These soldiers witnessed the rise of Zhang Xiu. They followed Zhang Xiu to fight. They were Zhang Xiu''s loyal supporters and obeyed Zhang Xiu''s orders.


    They followed Zhang Xiu for a short time and came to Deng''s business.


    This scene shocked Deng''s business.


    Deng Chen gets the news, flies to the door, and sees Zhang Xiu coming with 800 soldiers, with a dignified look on her face. Rao is so, Deng Chen is also happy not to be afraid, neither humble nor overbearing said: "General Zhang surrounded Deng''s business, do not know what law Deng''s business committed?"


    "I, Deng''s business firm, have always adhered to Deng''s family rules, abided by the law, never committed crimes, never bullied the good."


    "In business, the Deng family always likes to make friends."


    "If general Zhang is here to make friends, Deng Chen and Deng''s family are very prepared. But if general Zhang is here to steal, the Deng family will not be afraid. My Deng family has been standing in Yizhou for many years. They are not vegetarians. They will pick up sticks to drive away jackals. "


    Deng Chen''s reply was loud.


    Strong words, from the mouth of Deng Chen.

 Chapter 34

    Deng Chen''s heart, always has a superior sense. He was born in Deng''s family. He was a great family with a prominent status and profound family background. In contrast, Zhang Xiu is just a soldier and bandit.


    It''s psychological contempt.


    In addition, Deng Chen always believed that although Zhang Xiu won the negotiation with Liu Biao and took charge of the area to the north of Yuyang County, it was impossible to fight in front of the giant Deng family.


    The Deng family is enough to frighten Zhang Xiu.


    So Deng Chen dare to despise Zhang Xiu, dare not put Zhang Xiu in the eye.


    Zhang Xiu after listening to Deng Chen''s words, grinned, but this smile, how to see are full of cold and murderous. His eyes become more indifferent, said: "good, good, good a Deng family, good a Deng Chen."


    This praise is a mockery.


    Deng Chen didn''t care. He said forcefully: "the Deng family is not afraid of provocation and struggle. Deng''s family has been based in Nanyang County for many years, and they have encountered great storms. My Deng family doesn''t make trouble, but they are not cowards. When things happen, the Deng family will not be afraid. "


    Zhang Xiu listened to the threats and said, "I''m going to get a report. The Deng family colluded with the thieves to drive up the prices wantonly. Today, we are going to seal down Deng''s business


    "Who dares?"


    Deng Chen stares big eyes, scolds a way: "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to tear to break a face?"


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "what is tearing face? I didn''t tear face, but got the accusation of the common people and punished the illegal businessmen specially. The Yuyang County under the general administration should be in good order. Any violation of law and discipline will be handled. Deng''s firm, for the sake of wealth, is not benevolent and drives up prices. If you don''t know how to repent, you should be punished! "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Deng Chen eyes Sen cold, said: "you Zhang Xiu to use force, Deng Chen accompany in the end."


    "Somebody


    Deng Chen gave the order.


    At the command of Deng''s firm, countless private soldiers poured out.


    These private soldiers belong to the Deng family and are dedicated to protecting the safety of Deng''s business. Deng''s business covers an extremely large area, which has accumulated countless grains and made his family rich.


    Without the private soldier''s trilogy, food security can not be guaranteed at all.


    "Kill


    All the private soldiers drank, their voices were powerful and powerful, and they had a murderous air.


    "Interesting, interesting."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and the cold killing opportunity passed in her eyes. In Yuyang County, the private soldiers of Deng''s firm dare to fight against him. They are really impatient. I don''t know if this is because the Deng family feels good about themselves, or they think Zhang Xiu is a bully.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu has sentenced Deng Chen to death.


    Deng Chen''s eyes were rebellious, and he said again: "Zhang Xiu, you retreat immediately. The Deng family and your well water do not violate the river water, and they are at peace. If you insist on interfering in Deng''s affairs, don''t blame Deng''s impoliteness. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of cool color, disdain a way: "I pour want to see, you how not polite.". Archer, get ready! "


    At the command, the archer came forward.


    All the archers took bow and arrow and aimed at Deng''s firm. Under the golden sun, the arrow is shining, twinkling with a cold light, and even with a chill.


    Deng Chen mouth corner smoked to smoke, didn''t expect Zhang Xiu so tough. However, at this stage of the development of the matter, he could not retreat. He could only grit his teeth and say, "prepare for war!"


    All private soldiers, on guard.


    Zhang Xiu see Deng Chen dead shoulder in the end, also no longer hesitated, raised his hand and ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    "Whew! Whew


    Bows and arrows, like rain, keep shooting.


    Dense bows and arrows fall into the Deng family''s private soldiers. Even though the Deng family''s private soldiers wave their steel knives and intend to push away the bows and arrows, the dense rain of arrows falls, and the pushed away bows and arrows are in the minority after all.


    Many bows and arrows were shot into private soldiers.


    Screams, one after another.


    When Deng Chen saw this, he was completely angry. If Zhang Xiu didn''t give him a way to live, he would never keep his hand, so Deng Chen gave an order: "rush over and kill Zhang Xiu for me. Kill Zhang Xiu and reward ten thousand yuan! "


    A group of private soldiers, carrying knives, braved the rain of arrows, rushed forward quickly.


    The distance between the two sides was not far. It was just a short charge. They rushed out of the range of bow and arrow shooting and went straight to Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, no panic, said: "kill!"


    Soldiers under the command, kill them immediately.


    At this time, the archers stopped shooting and the two sides fought head-on.


    Although the Deng family''s private soldiers were fierce, they never went to the battlefield, and never really realized the ferocity and ruthlessness of fighting in the battlefield. As soon as they met the soldiers of the Xiliang army, they collapsed and couldn''t stop the attack of the Xiliang army.


    The soldiers of the Xiliang army were like beasts in flood, destroying the Deng family''s private soldiers.


    When Deng Chen saw this, he was confused.


    How is that possible?


    All the private soldiers in the business are highly trained and effective. They once protected the troops escorting grain teams, fought with thieves and bandits, won many battles and never lost.Now, it''s a direct defeat.


    It''s shocking.


    Deng Chen''s eyes watched the private soldiers under his command continue to flee, and saw the soldiers of the Xiliang army come to kill him. He knew it was not good.


    If we go on fighting, he will die.


    It''s impossible to escape.


    Deng Chen wanted to live first, and then consider other things, so he immediately changed his tone and begged for mercy: "General Zhang, everything is easy to discuss. Stop now. I, Deng''s firm, would like to surrender to General Zhang. "


    Zhang Xiu is separated from Deng Chen, about ten steps away. In the continuous shouts and screams, Zhang Xiu can''t hear Deng Chen''s words. However, Zhang Xiu can tell by the shape of her mouth.


    Zhang Xiu knows that Deng Chen has begged for mercy.


    However, Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention to Deng Chen at all, and still let the soldiers under her command continue to fight.


    The Deng family''s private soldiers are getting more and more dead and wounded.


    On the other hand, the soldiers of Xiliang army had little loss.


    "What to do? What shall we do? "


    At this moment, the heart of Deng Chen flustered God, incomparable worry. On his forehead, already permeated with fine beads of sweat, nervous.


    In the current situation, if we continue to fight, the private guards of Deng''s business firm will die here in half an hour. Including himself, will be killed.


    Deng Chen is afraid in the heart, after thinking for a while, let the soldier protect, quickly rush to Zhang Xiu.


    When he came to Zhang Xiu, Deng Chen said, "General Zhang, Deng Chen is wrong. Deng''s firm is willing to do what general Zhang wants. Please let general Zhang hold his hand high. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are cold.


    Zhang Xiu''s character has never been a bad person. What he advocates is to repay kindness and revenge. A man is a man, he should return his teeth with his blood.


    In this battle, if Zhang Xiu''s strength is not better than Deng Chen''s, Zhang Xiu''s end may not be much better. So when Deng Chen begged for mercy, Zhang Xiu did not have any pity. She said directly, "Deng''s business must be destroyed."


    "Zhang Xiu, you damned dog officer, I''ll fight with you."


    Deng Chen sees Zhang Xiu so resolute, in the heart anger, pulls out the long sword between the waist, stabs toward Zhang Xiu.


    "To die!"


    Zhang Xiu saw that Deng Chen had killed him. As soon as she lifted her right hand, the golden spear in her hand stabbed out instantly.


    "Hum!"


    Sharp point of the gun, pierce the air, hang sharp howling, straight from Deng Chen''s heart.


    "Puchi!"


    The point of the gun pierces into Deng Chen''s heart and runs through his body easily.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, like a spring splashing out.


    As Zhang Xiu draws back his long gun, Deng Chen''s body falls to the ground. Lying on the ground of Deng Chen, has lost breath, just stare big eyes, show his heart unwilling.


    Zhang Xiu shot and killed Deng Chen and ordered: "Deng Chen is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed. There is no amnesty for the resistance


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the Deng family''s private soldiers who were still resisting gave up their resistance one by one and did not dare to fight with the Xiliang army again. They couldn''t stop it originally, and if they continue to resist it, they will only increase the casualties.


    People are selfish, and no one wants to die.


    So, they all surrendered.


    The private soldiers of the Deng family surrendered one after another. Zhang Xiu ordered that all the people of the Deng family be detained and sealed up the business.


    The famous business firm of the Deng family was destroyed!


    When Zhang Xiu exterminates Deng''s business, she leaves the next thing to Xu Shu, who returns to the county government. A series of things, such as checking commercial banks, counting money, land titles and grain, can not be accomplished in a short time.


    In the middle of the night, Xu Shu came back.


    Xu Shu came to the study and bowed to Zhang Xiu. Then he said, "Lord, Deng''s business has been checked."


    With that, he handed in the list.


    After Zhang Xiu took it, he could not help but look shocked and said: "a single Deng''s firm, in Yuyang County, has accumulated more than 100000 tons of grain, as well as countless land products and land leases. It''s really rich."


    A hundred thousand stones is worth millions of Jin of grain.


    This is a terrible number.


    Zhang Xiu painstakingly went south to Xiangyang and made a toss. That is to say, she dug out 50000 stone grains from Liu Biao''s hands. But now, just a business of Deng''s, it''s shocking to find so much grain.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Yuanzhi, with the example of checking Deng''s business, I can''t help but want to check the shops of other families. This kind of investigation, without any effort, can bring huge profits. "


    "Not my Lord!"


    Xu Shu urged him.


    If Zhang Xiu really wants to start with all the big family shops in Yuyang County, it''s taboo. Just aiming at the Deng family''s business, the impact is not big. If they make public anger, they will become the target of public criticism.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Yuanzhi, don''t worry. I know what to do and what not to do. I just said it."When Xu Shu heard the speech, he was relieved.


    Zhang xiudao said, "we have got the grain from Deng''s firm. Next, what do you want to do?"


    Xu Shu thought a little and said, "I think there are three things to do now."


    "What three things?" Zhang Xiu asked.


    Xu Shu replied: "first, when Deng''s business is closed down, Nanyang Deng''s business is likely to take action. So next, the chief official must send detailed work to inquire about Deng''s every move in Nanyang. Once the Deng family has an action, they can know it immediately and make a response. "


    "Second, let''s benefit the people."


    "The troops under the Lord''s command don''t need much food. From the 100000 stone grain collected by Deng''s commercial bank, part of it was given to the people. Give some grain to the common people, so as to get the support of the people in Yuyang County, which will benefit all but do no harm. "


    "Third, adjust prices."


    "The LORD destroyed Deng''s business by thunder. The rest of the business families in the city must be in a panic. The Lord ordered all shops to return to normal prices. As long as the shops return to normal market prices, they don''t care about their criminal record. They just look at the present. "


    "Three things in parallel are enough to stabilize the situation."


    Xu Shu''s eyes twinkled with brilliance. He said confidently, "the situation in Yuyang county is stable, and there is no worry about internal troubles. The Lord can fight against Gongdu and Liupi."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    Xu Shu''s suggestion is to the point.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it carefully, then ordered: "the first and the third can be carried out at the same time. As for opening warehouses to release grain and providing relief to the common people, this matter should not be hasty, it must be implemented. "


    Xu Shu said: "please make it clear!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "tomorrow morning, I will arrange for the soldiers to inform the people in the city, so that they can gather outside Deng''s business at noon tomorrow, and I will announce the opening of the warehouse to release grain."


    Xu Shu said: "tomorrow morning, I will arrange people to carry out the task."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said with concern: "Yuanzhi, although everything in Yuyang county is a hundred wastes to be revived, you need to start all over again, but you don''t have to work too hard. Things to do, the body is also very important. If you are tired and seriously ill because of things in Yuyang County, it will not be worth the loss. "


    Xu Shu was moved in his heart and said, "don''t worry, my Lord. I''m not in a bad position."


    "Well, pay attention."


    Zhang Xiu reminded a, let Xu Shu retreat.


    Zhang Xiu was also busy all day. She was a little tired, so she had an early rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early and washes her face after morning exercise. After all the work, it''s almost three strokes a day. He went to the study to deal with government affairs, waiting for the arrival of noon.


    At this time in the city, in the streets and alleys, soldiers everywhere beat gongs to inform the county government of its decision.


    The soldiers who announced the announcement were in pairs.


    One beat the gong and the other yelled.


    Such a notice, though costly, is the most direct and efficient. As the soldiers preached in the city, the people in Yuyang County knew that Zhang Xiu was going to open a warehouse to release grain.


    For the people, this is a great good thing.


    Nanyang County has frequent wars, and the people have a very hard life. Many of the people in the city have their ups and downs and are tightening their belts. Now the government is going to open a warehouse to release grain, and they are all extremely looking forward to it.


    As soon as they got the news, many people put down their business and went straight to Deng''s business.


    People from all directions gathered outside the granary.


    Outside Deng''s business, more than 5000 people gathered. Thanks to the open terrain outside Deng''s business, it can accommodate countless people, otherwise the scene is easy to get out of control.


    The people gathered and talked about it.


    Everyone is waiting for Zhang Xiu.


    They are full of expectations and hope to get more food.


    Time goes by little.


    Towards noon, by this time, it was already in the middle of the day.


    Zhang Xiu, dressed in a white robe, boots and sword, strides forward. He came to Deng''s business, stepped on the temporary high platform and stood on it overlooking the four directions. He looked around the circle of people, raised a breath, loud voice: "quiet!"


    Voice spread, the front row of the people have been quiet, but also in the signal around the people are quiet.


    Soon, there was silence.


    All eyes, all fall on Zhang Xiu''s body, eyes are full of look of expectation.


    Zhang xiulang said: "folks, it was Zhang Xiu who was in charge of Yuyang County under the order of Mu Liubiao in Jingzhou. Yesterday, Deng Chen, who was going to find out about Deng''s business firm, colluded with thieves and bandits to drive up prices. "


    "Deng Chen''s action led to the hardship of the people''s life and the inability of money to buy food."


    "There is no law in him."


    "His mentality is insane."


    "In order to return a bright future to Yuyang County, the general mobilized the army, killed Deng Chen and sealed up Deng''s business."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "after the seizure of Deng''s business, Ben will count the grain, and found that there were 100000 stone grains in the warehouse of Deng''s business. Deng Chen hoarded countless grains, but he didn''t want to sell them. On the contrary, he bid up prices and increased the burden of the people. ""Such a person, you say, should be killed?"


    Zhang Xiu asked.


    All the people gathered around were staring at each other with indignation on their faces.


    Ten thousand stone grain!


    How much food is needed.


    Think of weekdays, Deng Chen stingy, not willing to sell more food, and food sold to death expensive. One by one, the hearts of the people raised endless anger and hatred for Deng Chen.


    "Deng Chen should be killed


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    "Damned Deng Chen!"


    "Everyone in the Deng family should die. It''s hard to calm people''s anger if they don''t kill Deng Chen. General Zhang''s killing Deng Chen is to get rid of harm for the people. General Zhang is powerful. "


    "General Zhang is powerful!"


    "General Zhang is powerful!"


    ¡­¡­


    The crowd is excited, and the people have completely stood on Zhang Xiu''s side, and all agree with Zhang Xiu''s practice. For the common people, their demand is very simple, that is to be able to eat and wear warm, but Deng Chen hoarded grain to drive up prices, which is self sacrifice to the common people.


    With this, Zhang Xiu eliminated the negative influence brought by the extermination of the Deng family. The people of Yuyang county will not agree to Zhang Xiu''s suppression of Deng''s business.


    This is the will of the people!


    Zhang Xiu works with the will of the people and obeys the nature and the people. It is an overwhelming trend and can not be stopped.

 Chapter 35

    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the people. At the moment, all the people gathered around her were filled with righteous indignation and anger.


    Everyone is angry at Deng Chen''s selfishness.


    He was angry at Deng Chen for being rich.


    Exactly, this is the effect of Zhang Xiu.


    "Silence


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed it down to signal all the people to be quiet.


    The people gathered outside Deng''s business firm, seeing Zhang Xiu''s action, gradually calmed down. Everyone''s eyes again converge on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her next words.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a loud voice, "I''m going to seal up Deng''s business, not to fill my own pockets, nor to take advantage of it. Most of the grain seized will be distributed to the people in Yuyang county. When I was in Yuyang County, I didn''t want to make great achievements. I just wanted to let the villagers have enough food and clothing, and no longer worry about three meals a day. "


    This remark deserves the praise of countless people.


    Previously, Yuyang County, although under the rule of Liu Biao, but the people live a hard life.


    For them, Zhang Xiu''s opening warehouse to release grain is like sending charcoal in the snow.


    Long live General Zhang


    In the crowd, some people knelt down and cried long live.


    Long live General Zhang


    Long live General Zhang


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cry gradually gathered together, forming a mighty torrent, straight into the sky, resounding through the world. This is the cry of the people from the bottom of their hearts, because Zhang Xiu is going to open a warehouse to release grain.


    In this era, food is the lifeblood.


    With food, you can live.


    In troubled times, it''s enough to have a bite to eat!


    People shout, and even many people moved to tears, emotion incomparably excited.


    Zhang Xiu at this moment, see people excited scene, is also greatly touched. That is, he once went through the later generations and saw all kinds of later generations, but at this moment, he was also infected.


    This is the common people!


    They will all be grateful for giving the people a little way to live.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, waiting for the people to be quiet again and let all the people stand up, then she continued: "please go back for a while and tell your family and friends. At midnight tomorrow morning, let everyone bring their families to collect grain outside Deng''s business. "


    The people should give thanks and then disperse.


    After the people left, Deng''s business gradually quieted down.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to guard strictly and make sure there was no mistake, so she took Xu Shu back to the county government.


    County government, study.


    Zhang Xiu and Xu Shu took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Yuanzhi, how much food do you think one person should give to the people this time?"


    Xu Xu thought and replied, "the minister has visited the registered residence of Yuyang County, and the registered population is about fifteen thousand. If we take into account the unregistered population, it is estimated that there will be about 18000 people. "


    "The minister suggested that 60 Jin of grain should be given to each person in their prime years, and 30 jin of grain should be given to each person for the old, the weak, women and children."


    "Now it''s just June, and it''s not far from the autumn harvest. When the people get food, they can live up to the autumn harvest. When the autumn harvest comes, they will be able to slow down. "


    Xu Shu said, "I think this arrangement is enough."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "the largest number of people is 20000. Even if each person has 60 Jin of grain, the consumption of grain is not big. Even half of the grain in Deng''s business can''t be consumed."


    "Therefore, it should be changed to 60 Jin of grain per person, old or weak."


    "After all, we are not short of food."


    "Especially in the near future, both the Cai family and Liu Biao will send food, and we will not be short of food."


    Zhang Xiu continued, "after the grain is distributed, I''m going to build fortifications in Yuyang County, reclaim fields and repair rivers and canals. All these things are carried out by recruiting the people. All the people who participate will be given a certain amount of wages and food. On the one hand, it can provide relief to the common people; on the other hand, it can repair rivers and canals and resume production. It''s the best way to give relief to the people through work, which benefits the people as well as the people. "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "this matter, you arrange as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu should go down.


    ¡­¡­


    West of the city, Huangjia shop.


    After Huang Yueying arrived, she stayed in Huang''s shop.


    Huang''s shop is not dealing with grain, salt and iron, but specialized farm tools, such as hoes and kitchen knives.


    Huang Yueying knows all this very well.


    After she lived in the shop, she was especially interested in Zhang Xiu''s news. When Huang Yueying learned that Zhang Xiu had taken Deng''s business by thunder and wanted to open a warehouse for disaster relief, she was also happy for Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhang Xiu has a firm foothold.


    Huang Yueying has no special feelings for Zhang Xiu. Now she thinks that although Zhang Xiu is a rough man, she is not an ordinary martial arts man. She is both civil and martial arts. She is very capable.The most important thing is that she wants to build a craftsman''s workshop with the help of Zhang Xiu.


    In her spare time, Huang Yueying arranged materials in her room and prepared some weapons to be forged and tested.


    Prepare in advance for subsequent use.


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early for morning exercise. After breakfast, she takes her soldiers and goes straight to Deng''s business. When Zhang Xiu arrived, it was still early, but outside Deng''s business, countless people had gathered.


    All the people are crowded together in a mess, crowded and crowded.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, how are you going to distribute grain?"


    Xu Shu replied, "Lord, I got registered residence from county ya. This time, the grain was released, and according to the name registered in the registered residence book, a household was called to get a family to collect food. Although it is very slow to do so, it is not easy to be falsely claimed, and many unregistered people can be found. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you only set up a place to do business, the efficiency is too slow. Your grain distribution strategy remains unchanged, but the registered residence book is divided into ten offices. Ten offices are working at the same time, distributing food continuously. Otherwise, there''s only one place to do business, and I''m afraid I can''t finish it in ten days and a half months. "


    Xu Shu said, "I will deal with it immediately."


    Immediately, Xu Shu arranged to go on and set up nine offices again.


    As soon as it''s time, open the warehouse on time.


    the ten offices of each of the offices are calling names in the same area as they are recorded in the registered residence book, and a family is then asked to collect a family and the family and the family distribute food.


    In the prime of life, women and children also receive 60 Jin.


    This is a great gift to the people.


    One by one, the people who received the grain left happily.


    Zhang Xiu did not participate in the distribution of grain. Seeing that everything was on the right track, she left and let Xu Shu preside over the distribution of grain. This matter lasted two days before it was completely released.


    in fact, if only one day and a half is required according to the name of the registered residence book, the grain can be distributed. But many people who have no registered residence have to build their registered residence and register.


    After the grain was distributed, the government issued an announcement of work relief.


    Recruiting people to build canals and walls is a great joy for the people. They get food, but they are not willing to sit idle. If they have something to do, they can still get food, which is the best thing.


    Under the adjustment of Zhang Xiu, Yuyang county presents a prosperous scene.


    Zhang Xiu is happy in her eyes.


    Everything in Yuyang county was on the right track. After everything was settled, the Cai family''s caravan arrived first and delivered the agreed 100000 Jin grain, 1000 swords, 500 sets of armor, and 100 craftsmen.


    When the manager of the Cai family finished handing over the supplies and saw Zhang Xiu, he quickly said, "General Zhang, the Cai family has already made a travel agreement. I sincerely ask general Zhang to release the owner so that the owner can return to Xiangyang."

 Chapter 36

    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "the Cai family fulfilled the agreement, I naturally will not break the agreement. However, the existence of CAI Mao is related to whether Liu Biao fulfills the agreement. If I release Cai Mao now, after he returns to Xiangyang, Liu Biao will turn his face and refuse to recognize people and no longer provide food. "


    "This general''s plan will be nothing."


    "So Cai Mao can''t leave for the time being."


    "But you can rest assured that as soon as Liu Biao''s grain and equipment are sent to Yuyang County, I will release Cai Mao immediately."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you have to wait."


    The manager of the Cai family did not raise any objection and said, "General Zhang, when the Cai family''s caravan went north, Liu Biao had arranged wenpin to escort the grain to the north. It is estimated that in three days at most, Liu Biao''s team will arrive in Yuyang county. "


    "You can stay in Yuyang county and wait for Liu Biao''s team to arrive," Zhang said


    "No problem!"


    The management of the Cai family should be under direct control.


    He didn''t say much, so he left.


    After the Cai family took charge, Zhang Xiu called Xu Shu and asked him to change his equipment for his soldiers. With the swords and armor sent by the Cai family, at least a group of soldiers can be equipped.


    After arranging things, Zhang Xiu took out the house on the left side of the county government for the craftsmen of the Cai family.


    This is the workshop of the future.


    In fact, all the craftsmen sent by the Cai family are the private property of the Cai family.


    These people are slaves.


    They are transferred to Zhang Xiu by the Cai family, who are Zhang Xiu''s people.


    Zhang Xiu went into the yard and gathered together a hundred craftsmen. These craftsmen, old and young, are very few.


    When you think about it, it''s impossible for the Cai family to send skilled craftsmen.


    After all, that''s the life of the Cai family.


    It will be very difficult for these old and small people to forge weapons. After all, they are old and lack strength and experience.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at everyone. At the moment, all the craftsmen were worried and worried. When they were in the Cai family, they lived a miserable life, but at least they could eat three meals without worrying about food and clothing.


    To Zhang Xiu here, everything has become unknown.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "all of you who have family members in the Cai family stand up."


    None of the 100 craftsmen came forward.


    Zhang Xiu had a good idea. She swept all the people and continued to ask, "among you, there are at least 30 old people. Don''t they have any family members?"


    "No!"


    In the crowd, an old man came forward.


    His hair and beard were white, his back was bent, and he was very old.


    The old man stood up and said, "General Zhang, we are all lonely old people. In the Cai family''s workshop, either his wife and children died early or never got married. As for these children, they are all orphans, and none of them has family members. "


    Zhang Xiu did not expect that an old man should have such a bearing and posture. She was not afraid of him. She was a little curious and asked, "what''s your name?"


    The general''s name is Zhang rui''er


    "Can you read?" Zhang Xiu asked


    "Literacy!"


    Tong Rui bows to answer.


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised. Most of the craftsmen worked hard and could not read. Especially in these days, those who can read are scholars, but Tong Rui is a craftsman, which is a bit surprising.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "since you can read, how can you become a servant of the Cai family?"


    Tong Rui explained: "when I was young, I used to be a craftsman in Jingzhou craftsman''s workshop, specializing in making utensils. Later, he offended the powerful, so that he was put into prison and became a slave. Later, he was sold to the Cai family and became a craftsman of the Cai family. "


    "Oh, it happened!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened, revealing a touch of surprise.


    Unexpectedly, the Cai family sent such a baby.


    Although there are no vigorous craftsmen for the time being, for Zhang Xiu, these aged craftsmen are real treasures. Zhang Xiu is especially in need of such literate people as Tong Rui. Because they have experience, they can preach and teach, so that the craftsman skills can be passed on.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Tong Rui, from today on, you are the leader of everyone. You are in charge of the operation of the workshop. "


    "Here it is


    Tong Rui bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu asked Tong Rui to return to the queue and said in a deep voice: "before, you were servants of the Cai family, slaves of the Cai family. No matter where you go, you can''t get rid of slavery. "


    "Even if you get married and have children, your children and grandchildren are all slaves of the Cai family."


    "Now under this general, you have a chance to change your destiny."


    "Come on, take out the slavery."


    Zhang Xiu talked and gave an order.


    The soldiers came carrying a box, which contained the slaves of all the craftsmen and the proof of their identity.Zhang xiupai pointed to the box and said, "in this, it''s all your native places. Now, Ben will burn down all these slaves and register you again, so that you will become lovers and no longer humble slaves. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu took the torch and lit the paper in the box.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    The light of the fire was burning and the smoke was thick.


    When the craftsmen saw this scene, they were all shocked, and many of them cried bitterly.


    Unexpectedly, they just got rid of their native place.


    "Plop!"


    Suddenly, Tong Rui kneels down directly.


    He knocked his head on the ground and choked: "general, you''ll never forget your kindness. I, Tong Rui, will follow the general to the death. "


    "Follow the general to the death."


    "Follow the general to the death!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one craftsman, plop plop of kneel on the ground, one after another kowtow thanks. At this moment, all the craftsmen cried like children.


    Once a slave, generation after generation.


    It''s not so easy to get rid of slavery.


    Now, they get rid of slavery and become real people. They are able to stand tall and upright. They are no longer humble slaves.


    Zhang Xiu let the craftsmen cry.


    After half a sound, everyone gradually stopped crying, and the scene was quiet.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu again. At this moment, the 100 craftsmen, old or young, were all grateful and excited.


    They swore their loyalty to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you get rid of slavery, just the first step to a good life."


    "The general''s workshop is a very important part. Those of you who have great inventions and creations that are conducive to war, siege, and farming will be rewarded. "


    "Even, you can become officials."


    "So whether you can have a good life in Yuyang county depends on whether you work hard. The chance to change destiny is not in the hands of this general, but in your hands. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "whether there is any harvest depends on your own."


    "General Xie!"


    Thank you all.


    Tong Rui is also full of expectations at this moment.


    In his early years, he made utensils in the official workshops and knew how to make many sharp utensils. Although old, although no children under the knee, but also hope to earn some money, the best is to leave blood for the children.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Tong Rui and said, "young man, I''ll leave everything in the workshop to you. It''s up to you to make overall arrangements. If you are short of something, you can go directly to me, or you can go to commander Xu. "


    "Here it is


    Tong Rui bowed down.


    He heard Zhang Xiu call him Tong Lao, and his heart was even more agitated.


    A scholar dies for a bosom friend!


    He was extremely excited to get Zhang Xiu''s respect.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "there will be a girl in the workshop. Her name is Huang Yueying. She is a member of the Huang family in Jingzhou and is good at making weapons. When the craftsman comes to the workshop, she will cooperate with you


    "Here it is


    Tong Rui responds again.


    Zhang Xiu simply explained the rest of the precautions, then turned away and went directly to Huang''s shop, ready to tell Huang Yueying about the craftsman''s workshop.

 Chapter 37

    Zhang Xiu came to Huang''s shop, gave her name and went straight in. Under the guidance of the attendant, I met Huang Yueying in the backyard.


    At this time, Huang Yueying was studying the plow.


    She is not satisfied with the long straight plow which is widely used nowadays. Huang Yueying personally saw the farmer ploughing, and found that it took a lot of effort to use the long straight shaft plow, and the plowing was very slow, so she wanted to improve.


    It''s just that I can''t think of a plan for improvement for a while, so I sit down for many days without any ideas.


    When Zhang Xiu entered, Huang Yueying didn''t notice.


    When Zhang Xiu sits down in front of Huang Yueying, Huang Yueying realizes the arrival of Zhang Xiu. Rao is so, Huang Yueying is startled, way: "Zhang general, when did you come in?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I just came here for a while, but I didn''t expect that you were so addicted that you didn''t find me."


    Huang Yueying scratched her head with an embarrassed smile.


    She has always been.


    When doing things, it''s hard to indulge in them.


    Zhang Xiu changed the subject and said, "I think you''ve been thinking about it all the time. What are you thinking about? What''s the problem


    On hearing this, Huang Yueying explained excitedly, "I''ve been thinking about plowing recently."


    "I don''t know if general Zhang has found out that once it''s spring ploughing season, the cattle are not enough, and the plowshares used by farmers are often damaged. So I thought, I want to improve the plow, change the status quo


    "I vaguely have a little idea, but almost, I can''t come up with a complete idea."


    Huang Yueying sighed and said, "it''s really not easy to do something."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "maybe I can help you with this."


    "Can you help me?"


    Huang Yueying turned her lips and looked incredulous. She said, "General Zhang can recite poems and write Fu and lead soldiers to fight. But it''s about farming and farm tools. I''m afraid you haven''t heard of them. How can you help me?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t you believe me?"


    "It''s not that you don''t believe it, it''s that you haven''t touched it," said Huang


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s make a bet."


    "Bet again?"


    Huang Yueying joked: "I heard that general Zhang bet with you Heng and Yi Ji, and you won; he bet with Gan Ning, and you won again. General Zhang will win every bet. I''m afraid I''m going to break your momentum if I bet with you now. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s my honor to lose to Miss Huang, isn''t it?"


    Huang Yueying asked, "how is general Zhang going to bet?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "if I win, Miss Huang will give me a chance to pursue Miss Huang. How about that?"


    "Ah


    Huang Yueying exclaimed.


    At this moment, Huang Yueying''s pretty face was full of coyness. It was the first time that she had heard such direct words when she was so big that her heart seemed to be pounded by deer, and she kept beating.


    For a moment, I don''t know what to answer.


    Regardless of Huang Yueying''s manner, Zhang Xiu continued: "that day, at Ping''an Inn in Xiangyang City, Miss Huang went to Ping''an Inn alone, intending to rescue Cai Mao. She is a woman with unparalleled courage and extraordinary wisdom. That day, Miss Huang left Xiangyang and went north with me to Yuyang county. I was very happy. "


    "If you dance like a lady, a gentleman will love you."


    "A woman like Miss Huang is beautiful, talented, courageous and adorable."


    Zhang xiudao: "Zhang is no exception."


    Huang Yueying listened to Zhang Xiu''s words, but she was moved. But for her, it''s still a little far away. After all, she is not familiar with Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu has only a simple relationship.


    Huang Yueying thought about it, calmed down and said, "if you can improve, I don''t mind giving you a chance."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    He was no stranger to the improvement of the long straight plow.


    Because Qu Yuan Li is well-known in later generations, which is necessary for the common people in the feudal period of China.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take the pen and paper!"


    Huang Yueying''s eyes twinkled and her face looked forward to it. She also wanted to see if Zhang Xiu could improve the long straight plow. According to her current understanding of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is not only proficient in marching and fighting, but also can recite poems and write Fu. She is a man of both literature and martial arts.


    Such a person, not bad.


    If you still know farm tools, it''s even more powerful.


    She took the pen and paper, put it in front of Zhang Xiu, waved her hand and said: "General Zhang, please!"


    Zhang Xiu took over the brush and spread out Cai Lun''s paper, sketching the shape and every part of Qu Yuan Li. As for Qu Yuanli, Zhang Xiu clearly remembers that she clearly marks every part and notes the efficacy.


    A complete drawing of the Quyuan plow was drawn up soon.


    After drawing, she said, "it''s called Huang Yuan embroidery. You ask people to make a curved yuan plow, and then compare it with a long straight yuan plow. The height of the two plowshares can be judged at a glance. "Huang Yueying is a person who knows goods. When she saw Qu Yuanli, her eyes lit up and she said, "wonderful, really wonderful! No matter how beautiful it is, or how it is used, it is much more flexible and easy. General Zhang, where did you find this kind of curved plow? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "up to now, no one has made quyuanli. This kind of plow was just designed at the request of Miss Huang. Miss Huang can send someone to inquire. If there is a second Quyuan plow in the world, Zhang Xiu has nothing to say. "


    "I believe you!"


    Huang Yueying nodded.


    As soon as the words changed, Huang Yueying said, "I have a hunch that this kind of Qu Yuan plow will be popular all over the world and become the preferred plow for farmers all over the world. General Zhang Yuanqu, if you use the plough well, you will surely be successful. I wonder if general Zhang can give Qu Yuanli''s sale to the Huang family? "


    The Huang family is a big Jingzhou family, and they are also in business.


    The business scope of Huang''s family mainly includes some farm tools and implements, including a few weapons.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s no problem to give the sale of Qu Yuanli to the Huang family. However, a Huang family can''t afford such a big business. It needs Pang''s participation. "


    Huang Yueying said: "General Zhang, we should not underestimate the strength of the Huang family."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Qu Yuan Li is not only suitable for Jingzhou, but also for all the states in the world. The Huang family alone can''t take it. I, the Huang family and the Pang family work together. "


    Huang Yueying thought about it, which is the same reason.


    In Jingzhou, the Huang family can do things well. Once out of Jingzhou, the Huang family''s control will be weakened.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Miss Huang can represent the Huang family. She first made a Quyuan plow. After a trial, she came to a conclusion. Then she sent someone to send the news back to Xiangyang and asked your father and Pang Degong to come to Yuyang county to discuss the matter."


    "No problem!"


    Huang Yueying responded directly.


    When talking about business, Huang Yueying regained her composure.


    There''s no shame.


    Zhang Xiu appreciates Huang Yueying''s attitude and ability. The reason why he agrees to give Qu Yuanli to the Huang family and Pang family is to bind the two families with interests and let the Huang family and Pang family stand on his side.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Miss Huang, you have recognized Qu Yuanli. Then, our gambling agreement has been reached. "


    "Well!"


    On hearing this, Huang Yueying lowered her head slightly and looked back.


    When it comes to business, she can deal with it rationally and calmly. But once it comes to her children''s private affairs, she is at a loss and becomes very shy and doesn''t know how to deal with it.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Huang Yueying''s response, she was also happy.


    At least, the relationship with Huang Yueying goes further.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t press step by step. After talking about Qu Yuanli, she said, "I''ve set up a craftsman''s workshop, which is next to the county government. When Miss Huang is free, she can go to the craftsman''s workshop and forge weapons according to your idea. "


    "Good!"


    Huang Yueying should go down.


    After a few more words, Zhang Xiu got up and left.


    When Zhang Xiu was about to leave, Huang Yueying said, "General Zhang, I heard that there will be bandits attacking Yuyang County next. General Zhang, please pay attention to your safety. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Miss Huang''s concern, Zhang Xiu took it. Thank you very much."


    With that, he left.


    Huang Yueying looks at the figure of Zhang Xiu leaving, and her heart suddenly becomes curious. Her impression of Zhang Xiu was suddenly blurred, because she didn''t know what Zhang Xiu would do and what she didn''t know.

 Chapter 38

    On the second day of June, wenpin''s team arrived in Yuyang county.


    All the food, equipment and armor escorted by wenpin arrived outside the city. For this journey, wenpin is very reluctant to come. He lost to Zhang Xiu, became the defeated general of Zhang Xiu, and even became the prisoner of Zhang Xiu. He didn''t want to see Zhang Xiu again in such a situation.


    To meet Zhang Xiu, he hopes to meet on the battlefield.


    He''s going to show his shame on the battlefield.


    Beat Zhang Xiu and prove yourself.


    Only Liu Biao ordered, he can not refuse, can only come.


    Yuyang County, outside the south gate.


    Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to spot check the situation of grain and weapons. She went straight to wenpin and said with a smile, "grain, swords and armor arrived as scheduled. General painstaking Wen has arrived."


    "Diploma Indifference:" less nonsense, let people go


    "No hurry, no hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said: "grain, swords and armour are still being checked. Please wait a moment for general Wen. When the results of spot check come out, if all of them are qualified, I will release them. I will not go back on what Zhang Xiu promised. "


    Wenpin said: "good!"


    He was concise and didn''t talk much.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "general Wen has excellent martial arts, knows how to use troops, and is a general in charge. It''s hard for you to show your ambition when you stay in Jingzhou. Instead of doing nothing under Liu Biao''s command, it''s better to go under this general''s command. Although this will not give you your present position, you can show your talent here. "


    Wenpin sneered and said strongly: "the kindness of General Zhang is the talent of wenpin. Last time, I was captured by you. When you and I fight again, I will defeat you. "


    Zhang Xiu said with regret: "it''s a pity."


    Wen pin stopped talking.


    He doesn''t like Zhang Xiu. What he wants is to defeat Zhang Xiu and take revenge.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the spot check is over.


    Everything is OK.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to carry all the grain, swords and armor into the city. After all this, Zhang Xiu asked people to bring Cai Mao and Zhang Yun.


    These two people have been detained in the city.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Cai Mao and Zhang Xiu, waved her hand and said, "you two are free!"


    "Go


    Cai Mao asked, turned and left.


    He didn''t want to face Zhang Xiu, because after being captured by Zhang Xiu, he paid too much.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu suddenly opened her mouth.


    Cai Mao turned around with resentment in his eyes and asked: "Zhang Xiu, what''s the matter?"


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "general Cai is a good man. I hope you will lead the army to attack Yuyang county again. You and I didn''t enjoy this fight. Next time, have a good fight. "


    Cai Mao''s mouth twitched.


    He is not willing to fight Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang Xiu is so cruel.


    After being captured by Zhang Xiu, Cai Mao knew a lot about Zhang Xiu during the journey from Xiangyang to Yuyang county. Zhang Xiu now has Xu Shu''s help, more Gan Ning''s loyalty, strength is not what it used to be. Now Zhang Xiu is not as weak as before. If you want to attack Zhang Xiu, you may be killed by her.


    Cai Mao no longer pays attention to Zhang Xiu, turns around and leaves.


    Wenpin also turned around and left.


    The group left quickly, and soon disappeared in Zhang Xiu''s sight.


    "Go back to the city!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered, with a group of soldiers back.


    Back in the city, Zhang Xiu reorganized the army and distributed weapons and armor.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has nothing to do in Yuyang County, because in a few days, Xu Shu has filled the vacancy of county government officials, and everything is on the regular.


    On the eighth day of June, Zhang Xiu got the news that Gan Ning sent someone back.


    Ganning, with his soldiers, escorted grain and equipment, arrived near Yuyang county and could return to Yuyang county at any time.


    Zhang Xiu learned that, let Ganning continue to be outside.


    Because they had to ambush Gong Du and Liu PI.


    On the ninth day of June, the sentinel sent back news that Gong Du and Liu PI entered Yuyang county and went straight to the east gate of Yuyang county. Gong Du and Liu PI, who came to attack Yuyang County, had nearly 20000 soldiers under their command.


    County government, in the study.


    Zhang Xiu and Xu Shu were seated, and they discussed how to deal with it.


    With a relaxed expression, Xu Shu said, "Lord, the troops of Gong Du and Liu PI sound like 20000. In fact, the number of troops that can take part in the war will not exceed 5000. The rest of them are old and weak. They are not worth mentioning. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s Yuanzhi''s plan?"


    Xu Shu''s eyes flashed a light, said: "no strategy, attack can!"


    "There are more than 5000 elite troops under the Lord''s command. These elite soldiers are equipped with armour and weapons, and after recuperation, they have recovered their combat effectiveness and are able to fight in the first World War. "


    "Gong Du and Liu PI arrived, and the Lord attacked. After the fight, Gan Ning was allowed to fight from the rear of Gong Du and Liu PI. The two armies were able to defeat Gong Du and Liu Pi''s forces in one go. ""In this war, we can do something extraordinary."


    "However, I think that when my lord just arrived in Yuyang County, he needed an open fight to show his strength and boost the morale of the soldiers in the army."


    "Gong Du and Liu pilai''s attack, to some extent, is good for the Lord."


    "Because the Lord can take advantage of it."


    Xu Shu''s eyes were full of expectations and said, "it''s also of great benefit to defeat Gong Du and Liu PI. On the one hand, the elite can be gathered; on the other hand, the old and the weak can be settled in Yuyang County for farming. It not only increases the population of Yuyang County, but also increases the combat effectiveness of the army, killing two birds with one stone. "


    Zhang Xiu heard the words and said, "what Yuan Zhi said is true. I''ll do it according to what you said."


    In fact, Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention to Gong Du and Liu PI. In the past, when Zhang Jiao was around, the yellow scarf thieves were all over the world, and they were very powerful. But after several times of encirclement and suppression in the Han Dynasty, today''s yellow scarf thieves have already lost their former glory.


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu''s strength is not weak.


    Even if it is a positive attack, Zhang Xiu also has enough assurance.


    Xu Shu got Zhang Xiu''s order and left the study to convey the military order and prepare for the battle. At the same time, he also sent an order to Ganning, who was ambushing outside, to prepare for the attack.


    When Gong Du and Liu Pi''s army was less than ten miles away from the east gate of the county, Zhang Xiu led the army out.


    Five thousand soldiers, leave the county.


    After Zhang Xiu got out of the east gate, he walked three miles, stopped in an open area, and lined up to meet the enemy.


    The army was arrayed and banners were displayed.


    Zhang Xiu, dressed in armour, with a sword hanging around her waist and a golden gun with a tiger''s head in her hand, stands on her horse and waits quietly.


    Someone is waiting for the way of the yellow scarf thief.


    It wasn''t long before I saw dust rising on the official road in front of me. A wriggling black line appeared on the official road. It was galloping in the direction of Zhang Xiu.


    Distance, a little closer.


    When the two sides were less than 100 paces away, Zhang Xiu clearly saw the yellow scarf thief soldiers in front.

 Chapter 39

    More than 20000 yellow scarf thieves are coming at a mighty gallop.


    The leaders are gong Du and Liu PI.


    Gong Du was tall and thin. He had triangular eyes. His eyes were sinister and fierce. He was wearing a loose leather armor, which didn''t fit, but he had a commanding look.


    Liu piguo''s face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, full of heaven, at a glance, it is quite heroic.


    The two men led the way.


    Both Gong Du and Liu PI were greedy for Zhang Xiu''s food and equipment. If they can get 50000 stone grain and Yiying weapons, they will not have to worry about the food problem for quite a long time, and they will also be able to enhance their own strength.


    Coincidentally, Liu Biao withdrew the soldiers from the border.


    So here they are.


    As the army approaches, Gong Du sees Zhang Xiu in the array. He raises his hand to signal the army to stop.


    The army stopped advancing and formed quickly.


    Gong dule held his horse''s reins, looked up, saw the big flag waving in the air, recognized the word "Zhang" on the big flag, knew that it was Zhang Xiu who led the army in person, looked around, and said in a loud voice: "who is Zhang Xiu, stand up and let me have a look?"


    Zhang Xiu rode forward and said faintly, "I''m Zhang Xiu. Are you gong Du or Liu Pi?"


    Gong Du held his head high and said: "if Lao Tzu doesn''t change his name, if he doesn''t change his surname, he will. Zhang Xiu, you don''t have any hair. If you want to resist the army of Laozi, you have a dream. Now, I''ll give you a chance. Lay down your arms and surrender. I will spare you from death and promise you to be a captain. If you are stubborn, I will let you live as if you were dead. "


    Instead of answering Gong Du''s words, Zhang Xiu asked again, "Gong Du and Liu PI are one. Gong Du is here. Who is Liu Pi?"


    "I''m Liu PI!"


    Liu PI CE answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu took a look at them, then her eyes fell on Gong Du and said, "Gong Du, I will give you a chance now. Lay down your arms and surrender. You will not die. Otherwise, there will be no amnesty


    Strong words come from Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid of yellow scarf thieves.


    Gong Du and Liu PI were not in his eyes.


    Gong Du is furious when he hears about it. It''s clear that it''s him who brought him down. It''s disgusting that Zhang Xiu should imitate him. Gong Du clenched his fist and threatened: "Zhang Xiu, I give you face, but you don''t want face. If you want to die, I will help you. Summon orders, beat drums and prepare for battle


    The soldiers have to give orders. Give them orders at once.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    War drums, boom.


    The drums are thundering.


    "Kill


    Gong Du raised the sword in his hand, cut it down and gave the order to attack.


    In a flash, the yellow scarf soldiers came out.


    On the broad official road, wave after wave of yellow scarf soldiers rush forward with crazy look in their eyes. These yellow scarf thieves are all very excited. They want to take food and weapons.


    In Runan County, they are invincible.


    In Yuyang County, they think so, too.


    A group of people, fast charge.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, without any anxiety, she raised her hand and ordered, "Archer, prepare!"


    Brush! Brush!


    The archer comes forward, squats on the ground, bows his arrow.


    This wave of bows and arrows out of a thousand people, a row of stand, the arrow aimed at the front. Although the soldiers in the army have poor arrow skills, they don''t have much sight. However, large-scale fighting does not need to be accurate. As long as there is enough strength and lethality, it is enough to kill.


    The distance between the two sides, a little bit shorter.


    Ninety steps!


    Seventy steps!


    Sixty steps!


    When the archer''s distance is less than 60, he says, "the archer''s distance is not enough."


    In a flash, the dense vibration of bowstring came and went, lingering in my ears. One after another, the bow and arrow suddenly rose into the sky, crossed an arc in the air, and then fell into the crowd of yellow scarf soldiers like rain beating banana.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sharp arrows fell into the crowd and pierced into the bodies of the yellow scarf soldiers.


    A wave of arrow rain wounded countless yellow scarf soldiers.


    But this kind of bow and arrow shooting can''t stop the yellow scarf soldiers. Because on the battlefield, it''s a common thing to face the barrage of bullets, so the yellow scarf soldiers are still rushing forward in the rain of arrows.


    The distance is shrinking.


    Fifty steps!


    Forty steps!


    The archers under Zhang Xiu''s command are still pulling the bow and shooting arrows. Dense bows and arrows, like pouring rain, harvesting the lives of the yellow scarf soldiers.


    There are more and more yellow scarf soldiers killed and wounded.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than 25 steps, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and ordered: "long spearmen, go to war!"


    "Step on it! Step on it! Step on itThe sound of neat steps suddenly rang out.


    "Chaka! Click


    With the sound of neat footstep, there is the sound of neat armor friction. A magnificent long Spearman appeared from the rear of the archers and quickly came to the front of the archers, forming a rectangular formation.


    This is a team of 1000 people.


    There are fifty people in a row. There are twenty rows.


    Every soldier, wearing armor and helmet, will protect his whole body.


    Every soldier has a long gun in his hand.


    They came to the front of the formation and soon met the yellow scarf soldiers.


    "Thorn!"


    Among the spearmen, a captain yelled.


    With the shouts of the captain, the soldiers in the front row glared, and Qiqi stabbed out the big gun, which was two feet thick. Each spear, with powerful force, stabbed upward at an angle of 45 degrees. When the sound of Puchi sounded, it thrust into the yellow scarf soldiers.


    In an instant, the yellow scarf soldiers at the front were either stabbed to death or seriously injured.


    Long Spearman, no damage.


    They''re fighting and they''re going on.


    Under the impact of the long gun array, the yellow scarf soldiers came, as if they had hit the iron plate and could not move forward. The appearance of the long spear array delayed the attack of the yellow scarf soldiers.


    At the back of the spear line, the archers were still bowing. The dense bows and arrows continued to shoot 50 or 60 paces away, harvesting the lives of the yellow scarf soldiers blocked in the rear.


    The situation on the battlefield has changed dramatically.


    The army of Zhang Xiu is as powerful as a rainbow.


    This scene, fall in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, he is smiling, still calm. Because he was in the scene. According to Xu Shu''s suggestion, he wanted to attack and defeat the yellow scarf thief.


    Gong Du and Liu PI frowned.


    Gong Du saw that the soldiers were killed and wounded one after another. Seeing that the attack was blocked, he was furious. He immediately adjusted his strategy and dispatched the soldiers to attack from both wings, trying to bypass the long gun array and attack Zhang Xiu''s heart position.


    Soon the soldiers rushed out.


    These two waves of yellow scarf soldiers, bypassing the main battlefield, came out from the side and went straight to the position where Zhang Xiu was.


    Zhang Xiu saw the yellow scarf soldiers attacking the two wings and gave an order again.


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of a long horn resounds through the battlefield.


    When the voice came out, suddenly two cavalry troops appeared in the grass on both sides of the official road. The number of these two cavalry is not large, each has two hundred and fifty cavalry, a total of five hundred cavalry.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s cavalry.


    It was also the only cavalry left in Nanyang County from Guanzhong.


    The cavalry on both sides are elite.


    On the broad and flat official road, they came and went like the wind. In an instant, they entered the battlefield and sniped the yellow scarf soldiers who were killed on both wings.


    Gong Du and Liu PI had few elite soldiers. The yellow scarf soldiers who were sent to attack the two wings were all elite soldiers with ordinary combat effectiveness. As soon as they met the cavalry, they broke up and fled everywhere. They did not dare to fight with the cavalry.


    After Gong Du saw this, the corners of his mouth twitched.


    This time, it hit the iron plate.


    Whether it was a strong attack or a flank attack, it was blocked, and there was no direction to suppress Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing that the opportunity was not good, Liu PI immediately advised him: "Gong Du, the situation is not good. This embroidery is well prepared. It is said that Zhang Xiu is a lost dog and lacks strength. But in the present situation, Zhang Xiu is full of elite. It''s not easy for us to chew down Yuyang county. In my opinion, withdraw. "


    "No, never!"


    Gong Du replied forcefully, "we only came to Yuyang county at great risk. If we just go like this, I''m not reconciled. What''s more, if we retreat now, the morale of the army will collapse. We can only advance but not retreat. "


    Liu PI sighed.


    He also agreed with Gong du that this time he was in a dilemma.


    Enter, can''t beat Zhang Xiu.


    If we retreat, our morale will be damaged.

 Chapter 40

    Liu PI originally opposed the robbery of Zhang Xiu.


    There are two reasons!


    First, from Runan County to Yuyang County, cross-border operations should be carried out. In Runan County, Liu PI Fang was familiar with everything, but in Yuyang County, he was not familiar with anything, which was not conducive to fighting.


    Second, even Liu Biao has nothing to do with Zhang Xiu. He needs to attack Zhang Xiu with the help of external forces. This alone proves that Zhang Xiu''s strength is not simple, so Liu PI thinks that it is best not to provoke Zhang Xiu.


    However, Gong insisted.


    Not only that, the generals in the army were dazzled by the 50000 stone grain, looking forward to the benefits of seizing the grain, so even if Liu PI opposed, it did not play any role.


    Now in trouble, Liu PI has nothing to do.


    Regardless of Liu Pi''s idea, Gong Du gritted his teeth and ordered: "the whole army will listen to the order and kill!"


    He gave orders for the general attack.


    Gong Du was no longer in the central army, and he led the troops to kill himself. The elite under his command went out with Gong Du.


    Seeing this, Liu PI could only attack together.


    All the yellow scarf soldiers, the mighty attack.


    The curtain fell in Zhang Xiu''s eyes. He raised a smile and said, "Gong Du, the whole army is ready to attack. The herald should ring the drum and order the whole army to attack. "


    "Dong! Dong


    The herald got the order and beat the drum.


    The sound of battle drums is dull and powerful, as if there were ancient beasts roaring. The rhythm of the war drums resounded through the battlefield, stirring the morale of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    The soldiers are full of fighting spirit.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu also clenched the golden spear of tiger head in her hand and drove her horse out.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    Soldiers, armed with swords, cried out.


    More than 2000 elite soldiers rushed out and directly attacked the yellow scarf soldiers. At this time, both sides started fighting in an all-round way, and the front of the battlefield began to widen and the confrontation became white hot.


    At this time, the formation of the lance soldiers changed. Instead of being a whole, they broke up into small teams one after another and fought in small formations.


    Such a small formation, or three people in a group, or five people in a group, is extremely lethal.


    Where you pass, you will be overwhelmed.


    The soldiers of Xiliang army and the soldiers of Huangjin army fought fiercely.


    In a short time, the yellow scarf soldiers could not resist the attack. Although the number of yellow scarf soldiers was large, they could barely resist the attack of Xiliang army and could not fight back at all. If it wasn''t for the advantage in numbers, the yellow scarf soldiers would be defeated.


    Gong was very anxious.


    Once Zhang Xiu can''t be defeated, he will be defeated in this battle. If you lose, even if you get rid of Zhang Xiu''s pursuit and can safely return to Runan County, I''m afraid that when you get to Runan County, you will also be attacked by other forces.


    Therefore, Gong can not be defeated.


    "Sons, kill me. If you defeat Zhang Xiu and break Yuyang County, you will be allowed to plunder for three days. "


    Gong gave the most cruel order.


    Such an order is extremely vicious for the people in the city. Once the city is broken, the yellow scarf soldiers will plunder it for three days, which means that the people in the city will suffer completely. No matter the food, money or the women in the city, they will be wiped out.


    But such an order is most encouraging.


    The soldiers of the yellow scarf rushed forward madly.


    For a time, morale was high.


    Zhang Xiu sees everything in the eyes of the yellow scarf soldiers, and is not afraid. He is like a sharp knife, charging fast, tearing the defense of the yellow scarf soldiers with rapid momentum, and cutting one yellow scarf soldier after another in the formation of the yellow scarf soldiers.


    The soldiers under his command followed closely.


    Zhang Xiu and his soldiers are brave, but at the moment, the yellow scarf soldiers are crazy and rush forward.


    The two sides were neck and neck.


    The loss of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, or Gong Du''s and Liu Pi''s yellow scarf soldiers, is increasing dramatically. It depends on who can take the lead in defeating each other and gain an advantage.


    "Da! Dada


    Suddenly, the sound of horse''s hooves came from the rear of Gong Du and Liu PI.


    A team of people, quietly appeared.


    "Jinfan Erlang, I''m invincible."


    Vigorous and orderly cry, suddenly sounded.


    "Jinfan Erlang, I''m invincible."


    "Jinfan Erlang, I''m invincible."


    ¡­¡­


    The cry, like thunder, resounded in the ears of every yellow scarf soldier. With this sound, Gan Ning led the troops to cut into the rear of the yellow scarf soldiers and smashed their charge.


    Ganning in the hands of a long knife, into the yellow scarf soldiers, such as into the uninhabited, invincible. Under his command, 800 jinfanerlang was in a sharp cone shape, constantly rushing forward.


    For a moment, the formation of the yellow scarf soldiers was in chaos.


    Gong Du''s face changed greatly when he heard the cry from the rear. When he was in Runan County, he heard the name of Ganning and knew that the Jinfan thief was Ganning. Although Gan Ning''s troops are not many, they are all excellent soldiers.This is extremely difficult.


    Gong Du was already worried at the moment.


    He''s on the hook!


    Obviously, Gan Ning was already in the rear, waiting for him to fight with Zhang Xiu, and then cut off his back.


    Liu PI was even more anxious, and he said in a loud voice, "Gong Du, you can''t hesitate any more. Pull out. We''ll pull out at once. If we don''t retreat, once Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning meet, our casualties will be greater and it will be more difficult for us to escape. "


    Gong Du clenched his fist and his face was full of reluctance.


    He doesn''t want to retreat!


    Yuyang County, there are 50000 stone Liubiao sent food, as well as thousands of sets of armor and weapons. If he gets this batch of food and weapons, he won''t have to worry about the army''s food, he can expand the army wantonly.


    But now, they can''t eat rice.


    It''s a big loss this time.


    Gong didn''t want to retreat, but the reality was very bad for him.


    "Withdraw!"


    Gong Du gritted his teeth and gave the order to retreat.


    He turned his horse and was ready to retreat.


    Next to Gong Du, the soldiers in charge of holding the flag also followed Gong Du and quickly carried the big flag and turned around to retreat.


    "Gong Du, where can I escape?"


    A loud voice suddenly came from behind.


    In the yellow scarf soldiers, one person and one rider killed quickly.


    This person is Zhang Xiu.


    Although he fought back and forth in the army, he always paid attention to the direction of Gong Du''s banner. Seeing Gong Du''s big flag retreating quickly, Zhang Xiu knew that Gong Du was going to retreat and immediately killed her. Zhang Xiu galloped with her horse. She waved the golden spear in her hand and killed the yellow scarf soldiers in front of her. She went straight to Gong Du.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu drank a lot, and her whole body was murderous.


    At the moment, under the influence of blood, Zhang Xiu is like a demon. Where he passed, the yellow scarf soldiers retreated one after another, and no one dared to come out to stop Zhang Xiu, so the distance between Zhang Xiu and Gong Du quickly narrowed.


    Twenty steps!


    Fifteen steps!


    Ten steps!


    When the distance between the two sides was less than ten steps, Zhang Xiu held the golden spear in her right hand, released the rein in her left hand temporarily, clamped the horse''s belly with her legs to stabilize her figure, while her left hand flashed out, wiped it from the pocket beside the horse''s belly and took out a short gun.


    This short gun is about three feet long.


    This is specifically for projection.


    Zhang Xiu holds the shotgun in her left hand. When the horse is running, she throws the shotgun out.


    "Whew!"


    The short gun broke through the air, and went straight to Gong Du''s back with a whistling sound.


    Gong Du was running fast when he heard a voice coming from behind. When he looked back, he saw a streamer coming. He shivered with fright and fell on his horse.


    The next moment, the shotgun passed overhead.


    "Hoo


    Gong Du took a long breath, and his back clothes were wet with cold sweat.


    It was too dangerous just now.


    Later, he''ll be shot with a shotgun.


    It''s just that Zhang Xiu''s stoop, the horse in the crotch has a pause, and the speed is reduced. While Zhang Xiu takes advantage of Gong Du''s pause, suddenly accelerates and catches up in the blink of an eye.

 Chapter 41

    "Gong Du, take your life!"


    After Zhang Xiu approached Gong Du, the golden spear turned into a streamer and stabbed out.


    Gun like a shooting star, straight to Gongdu.


    When the long gun approached Gongdu, Gongdu''s back bristled with cold hair, making him extremely nervous. Without any hesitation, he turned to the right side like lightning and rolled down directly.


    "Bang!"


    Gong Du fell to the ground hard. He was full of meat and vegetables. There were stars in front of him. His body was like a broken frame.


    Gong didn''t want to fall.


    The key is that he has no way to evade. He can only evade the attack by falling off the horse.


    Zhang Xiuyan looks at Gong Du''s fall and smiles coldly. If it was that simple, he would be able to avoid his attack, and he would not be the king of the north. Zhang Xiu hand force, long gun in the air, gun head suddenly up, then hard hit.


    The gun fell like thunder.


    Gong Du dodged the previous blow, but he couldn''t avoid it in a hurry.


    "Pa!"


    The barrel of the gun hit Gong Du''s left shoulder, and the next moment, there was a click. Gong Du''s left shoulder blade was smashed by Zhang Xiu''s shot.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Gong Du''s mouth.


    The endless pain invaded Gong Du''s nerves. At this moment, Gong Du''s body trembled slightly, and his face was even more ferocious. Under the attack of severe pain, Gong Du didn''t even have the strength to struggle.


    He can only lie where he is.


    Gong can''t move, but Zhang Xiu can''t keep her hand.


    One shot hit Gong Du badly. Zhang Xiu''s long gun turned in the air, and the tip of the gun pointed at Gong Du''s heart.


    Gong Du saw the spear coming and couldn''t escape. He looked desperate.


    At this moment, Gong regretted it.


    I regret not coming to Yuyang county.


    Regret is too greedy.


    I regret not listening to Liu Pi''s advice.


    Gong could not avoid it, so he simply closed his eyes and waited for death. However, just as Gong Du admitted his life and the gun approached Gong Du six inches in front of him, a steel knife cut down and fell on the gun.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of violent impact suddenly sounded.


    Zhang Xiu''s golden spear with tiger''s head in her hand was cut off and deviated from the direction.


    "Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill Gong Du, you have to pass me first."


    Liu PI set his horse in front of Gong Du, making angry eyes. Liu Pixian was leading the battle to resist the attack of officers and soldiers. Seeing that Gong Du was going to die, he turned around and killed him, blocking Zhang Xiu''s attack for Gong Du.


    "Quick, take Gong du to retreat first."


    Liu PI directly ordered.


    Seeing that Liu PI had entered the battlefield, Zhang Xiu sneered, "do you want to go? None of you can leave. All of you must stay. Now that you are Liu PI, let''s stay together. "


    As soon as the spear shakes, Zhang Xiu''s golden spear takes Liu PI.


    The cold light flickered, and the gun tip was cold and murderous.


    Facing Zhang Xiu''s attack, Liu PI suppressed his thoughts, swung his sword, and summoned up his strength to cut it.


    "Dang!"


    The golden spear collides with the blade and sparks are splashing.


    The great power erupted from the long gun, and the force recoiled. Liu Pi''s hand holding the sword was sore, and his palm was numb, so he almost couldn''t hold the sword in his hand.


    What a terrible power!


    Liu Pi''s face showed a look of horror.


    As a leader of the yellow scarf army, he has seen the world and knows some powerful generals. But in front of Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the power is overwhelming, which makes him hard to resist.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu is full of fighting spirit. Without waiting for Liu pi to make a response, she swings the golden spear again and smashes it down.


    Zhang Xiu''s marksmanship follows Tong Yuan.


    His one pistol technique is superb, and he is invincible in the Xiliang army. However, this is only Zhang Xiu''s shooting realm. Regardless of Zhang Xiu''s shooting skills, Zhang Xiu was born with divine power, and she was already extremely powerful simply in strength.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu swings a gun to make a stick. Ten percent of her strength comes out through the golden gun of tiger head. Her strength is incomparably strong and even faster than thunder. With a sharp whistling sound hanging from his long gun, he reached Liu Pi''s head in a twinkling of an eye.


    Liu Pi''s hands are still numb and painful.


    In haste, there is no strength.


    Seeing the spear smashed, Liu PI was helpless, holding the pain of the palm of his hand and fighting with the sword.


    The sound of impact, again.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Liu Pi''s mouth.


    Under the impact of strength, Liu Pi''s mouth was torn and his palm was stained with blood. Under the severe pain, his sword was knocked out directly. His Qi and blood churn, only feel a sweet throat, mouth on the spurt of a mouthful of blood.


    He also fell from his horse and fell to the ground.


    Liu PI fell to the ground in pain.


    Before he could move, a long gun had stopped in front of him. If the gun goes three inches further, he will die.finished!


    Liu PI sighed in his heart.


    It was a complete failure.


    Liu PI looked aside and saw Gong Du lying on one side. Although he asked the soldiers to take Gongdu first, he was defeated so fast that he was defeated before the soldiers could move Gongdu.


    He and Gong Du are now brothers in need.


    Zhang Xiu defeated Liu PI. Looking around, the yellow scarf soldiers cowered and did not dare to step forward.


    They are all afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s clothes and armor were soaked with blood, like a bloody man, which made people afraid.


    "Come on, take Gong Du and Liu PI!"


    Zhang Xiu defeated Liu Bihou and gave the order directly.


    The soldiers came forward and took the two directly.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and raised her golden spear in her hand. She took a breath and said in a loud voice, "Gong Du and Liu PI have been captured. Those who fall will not be killed, and those who resist will not be forgiven."


    "Those who fall will not be killed!"


    Soldiers around, follow.


    "Liu PI and Gong were captured, and those who were down were not killed!"


    "Liu PI and Gong were captured, and those who were down were not killed!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded. One by one, the soldiers tried to roar.


    These soldiers are very excited.


    On the other hand, when the news spread that Gong Du and Liu PI had been arrested, they were all in a panic and ran around in panic. But when they ran out, they were surrounded by officers and soldiers and had no way to escape.


    "I surrender, I surrender!"


    In the crowd, there was the first yellow scarf soldier to surrender.


    With the surrender of the first yellow scarf soldier, the rest of the yellow scarf soldiers surrendered one after another. Looking around, the black man''s head kept falling, and the yellow scarf soldiers were kneeling on the ground.


    The yellow scarf soldiers who had already run to the periphery also chose to kneel down and surrender. It''s not that they don''t want to run, it''s that there are cavalry hiding around them. If they continue to run away, they will be killed by cavalry.


    So we have to surrender.


    One by one, the yellow scarf soldiers surrendered. After seeing this, Zhang Xiu stopped fighting and quickly joined up with Gan Ning. Zhang Xiu tells Ganning to clean up the battlefield and count the losses and achievements, while he returns to the county seat to wait for the news.


    An hour and a half later.


    County government, study.


    Xu Shu and Gan Ning entered together.


    After the salute, Gan Ning sat down, his face full of joy, and reported: "Lord, this time we fought with Gong Du and Liu PI, we not only captured two people alive, but also captured more than 15000 yellow scarf soldiers. More than 600 people died in the war on our side, and the loss was not great. If you look at it carefully, this battle is a complete victory. "


    Xu Shu nodded his head and said, "we have captured more than 15000 yellow scarf soldiers. Even if we choose one out of ten, we can choose more than 1000 soldiers. The rest of the yellow scarf soldiers became the common people and were allowed to farm in Yuyang county. Next year''s Yuyang county will be very different. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I really won this battle, but it didn''t meet my expectation. Although there are a large number of yellow scarf thieves, they are not worth mentioning. We lost more than 600 soldiers, which is not small. Our combat effectiveness needs to be improved. "


    Ganning said: "Lord, please rest assured that I will train the soldiers well."


    "I''ll see."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and looked forward to it.


    For Gan Ning''s ability, Zhang Xiu is recognized. However, Zhang Xiu''s expected goal is not only to win battles, but also to turn her army into a division of all wars. If she wants to attack, she will conquer, and if she wants to win, she will win.

 Chapter 42

    Xu Shu took over the words and said, "Lord, what should we do with Gong Du and Liu Pi?"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what advice does Yuan Zhi have?"


    Zhang Xiu has made up her mind to deal with Gong Du and Liu Bi, but he still asks Xu Shu. On the one hand, we should listen to the opinions of our subordinates. On the other hand, it is to give Xu Shu a chance to play, because Xu Shu is Zhang Xiu''s counselor.


    It is Xu Shu''s duty to give advice.


    If everything is decided directly by Zhang Xiu, Xu Shu will lose his role as a counselor.


    Xu Shu was not impatient and said: "I think that Gong Du and Liu PI should be killed to attack the heart."


    Zhang xiudao: "tell me in detail."


    Xu Shu looked calm and explained: "first, the LORD sent someone to inform the people of the whole city. Killing Gong Du and Liu PI in front of everyone can help the Lord gather people''s hearts and establish prestige."


    "Gong Du and Liu PI are yellow scarf thieves."


    "Two people occupy Runan County, wantonly plunder, so that the people hate to the bone."


    "The killing of Gong Du and Liu PI by the Lord protected the safety of Yuyang county. The people will be grateful and recognize him. The hearts of the people are like water. We need to gather bit by bit to gather strength. "


    "Once the hearts and minds of the people are united into a river and a sea, they will have the power to destroy the withered and decayed, and be invincible."


    "This is how to help those who have received the Tao."


    Xu Shu calmly continued: "last time, Deng Chen raised the price of grain and hoarded grain, which made it difficult for people to buy grain. The LORD destroyed Deng''s business, stabilized the price of grain in Yuyang County, opened warehouses to release grain, and provided relief to the common people, so that the common people benefited. "


    "The people are grateful for this."


    "Now Gong Du and Liu PI are attacking from Runan County. The Lord is not afraid of danger and has defeated Gong Du and Liu PI."


    "This is the Lord''s martial arts, which can convince the people."


    Xu Shu calmly analyzed.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is not of great value to take over Gong Du and Liu PI. On the contrary, it is more valuable to kill them.


    Gan Ning listened with admiration.


    Xu Shu is worthy of being a famous scholar in Jingzhou.


    A small thing, can play a flower. In other words, Gan Ning himself captured Gong Du and Liu PI, the yellow scarf robbers who were fleshy people, and killed them with one knife. He would not make so many twists and turns.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "Yuan Zhi''s plan is the best one. But you mentioned the first point just now. Is there a second point? "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "what is the second?"


    Xu Shu continued: "Lord, to kill Gong Du and Liu PI, the first is to attack the hearts of the common people, the second is to attack the hearts of thieves and bandits. Gong Du and Liu Bi are located in Runan County. They are very powerful and have a strong deterrent force in Jingzhou and Yuzhou. "


    "When they are killed, the bandits around will not dare to offend him again because they know the strength of the Lord."


    "This is the heart of attacking thieves."


    "Take Gong Du and Liu Pi as chickens and kill them."


    There was a light in Xu Shu''s eyes, and he said: "the benefits of doing this can also frighten the forces north of Wan County, so that they dare not underestimate the Lord. It will be helpful for the Lord to attack the area north of Yuyang County in the future. "


    Zhang xiuhan said, "what about the third?"


    In Zhang Xiu''s deduction, since it is an offensive plan, there is a third point.


    Xu Shu said: "third, attack Liu Biao''s heart. There are two sides to Liu Biao''s view of the Lord. "


    "On the one hand, Liu Biao hopes that the Lord will stay in Yuyang County as a barrier to the north of Jingzhou and guard Xiangyang so that he can rest easy."


    "On the other hand, Liu Biao was very angry with you Heng and Yi Ji. He didn''t want to see the Lord strong and wanted to suppress him and let him be within his control. "


    "Liu Biao had no choice but to beat him with the help of Gong Du and Liu PI."


    "This is Liu Biao''s little action."


    "This time, when the Lord killed Gong Du and Liu Bihou, he could seal their heads with lime and pack them in boxes, send sentries to Xiangyang and present them to Liu Biao."


    "It''s a demonstration, and it''s a beating on Liu Biao."


    "The Lord can easily defeat Gong Du and Liu PI. If Liu Biao moves again, the Lord will not give up."


    Xu Shu did not put Liu Biao in his eyes. He said: "Liu Biao is strong outside but strong in the middle. Even if the Lord beat him, he did not dare to do anything. What''s more, Liu Biao was responsible for the affairs of Liu PI and Gong Du. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in praise.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu is also preparing to kill Gong Du and Liu PI.


    Killing Gong Du and Liu PI has many advantages.


    Xu Shu''s proposal, comprehensive and specific, comprehensive analysis.


    Gan Ning Gudong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Xu Shu with a touch of awe in his eyes. When he was in Nanyang, he had heard of Xu Shu''s reputation for a long time and knew that Xu Shu had outstanding talent.


    He admired famous people, so he respected Xu Shu.


    However, Gan Ning didn''t fear Xu Shu very much. After all, Xu Shu was a counselor. He only gave advice to Zhang Xiu and would not go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. But now I hear Xu Shu''s analysis and plan. It''s awe inspiring.At this moment, Gan Ning is really in awe.


    Gan Ning''s heart, suddenly gave birth to a desire, he wants to read and learn. We should not only learn how to March and set up the array, but also learn the tactics of war. Although Gan Ning has read books, he is only proficient and has never really read books. He marched and fought according to his own experience. Now seeing Xu Shu''s ability, he made up his mind to study.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t know Gan Ning''s inner thoughts. If she knows, she will be greatly gratified.


    It''s good to be willing to study.


    Without hesitation, Zhang Xiu said directly, "Yuanzhi, the time for killing Gong Du and Liu Pi is tomorrow afternoon, and they will be executed outside the south gate. Since I want to rally the people''s support, I will give a speech on the stage in person, and you can arrange it. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning again and said, "we should speed up the process of reorganizing the yellow scarf soldiers. We will not stay in Yuyang County for too long. As soon as our strength is consolidated, we will move our troops northward and seize the counties to the north of Yuyang county. "


    Gan Ning said: "the humble position will be completed as soon as possible."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, a soldier came outside the study and knocked on the door.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    The soldier pushed the door in, knelt down on one knee, saluted Zhang Xiu and said, "general, there is a man named Deng Jing from the county government. He said that he came here on behalf of the Deng family in Nanyang to see the Lord and talk about the business of the Deng family. "


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth brings up a smile.


    After Deng Chen was killed, several days later, the Deng family finally came, but they didn''t know whether they were asking for help or asking for peace?


    Zhang xiudao said, "take the people to the lobby. Ben will come later."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to order, turn around and arrange.


    Gan Ning and Xu Shu left first to deal with their own affairs.


    Zhang Xiu changed into a white robe, wore a long crown on her head, and hung a sword on her waist. She went straight to the hall.

 Chapter 43

    In the hall of the county government, a middle-aged man, nearly 40 years old, with his hands on his back, his jaw slightly raised and stood proudly.


    This person is Deng Jing.


    He was born in the Deng family and was in charge of the Deng family''s external liaison.


    Although Deng Jing is nearly 40 years old, he is not fat. He is thin and tall. He wears a black robe with sword eyebrows at the temples. His eyes are bright and his face is angular. He has an extraordinary bearing.


    But his eyes were long and narrow, and when they narrowed slightly, they showed a sense of coldness and evil.


    At the moment, Deng Jing is looking at the hall of the county government.


    In Deng Jing''s opinion, the Yamen of Yuyang county is too dilapidated. In such a large county, the hall of the Yamen has no other furnishings except a few simple tea tables, even ordinary screens.


    The ancestral residence of the Deng family in Xinye, let alone the reception hall, is just a yard, which is more magnificent than the county government of Yuyang county.


    Wufu is Wufu!


    I don''t understand elegance and style.


    From the bottom of his heart, Deng Jing despises Zhang Xiu and thinks that Zhang Xiu is a clay leg.


    After he looked around for a while, his mind turned and he thought of Deng Chen''s being killed. His eyes flashed a cold look. The food of Deng''s firm was seized, and Deng Chen was killed. The owner of the family was so angry that he was ordered to come to Yuyang county to start a crime.


    Liu Biao is afraid of Zhang Xiu, but the Deng family is not.


    The Deng family is a giant in Xinye County, Nanyang County. They are not afraid of Zhang Xiu, and they are not afraid of Zhang Xiu in Xinye county. Even if Zhang Xiu leads his troops to Xinye County, the Deng family will fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Deng Jing looked up at the door, his eyes filled with impatience. He entered the hall of the county government and waited for nearly a quarter of an hour, but he still didn''t see Zhang Xiu. His patience had worn away.


    Deng Jing had a decision in his heart.


    When Zhang Xiu arrives at the hall, he must ask Zhang Xiu severely.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, footsteps came from outside the hall.


    Deng Jing heard the footsteps from far and near and turned to look out. What came into view was a young man in his twenties. Although young people are handsome and extraordinary, they are young after all.


    Deng Jing knows that it''s Zhang Xiu. After evaluating her age, he looks down on her even more.


    He who has no hair on his mouth can''t do things well.


    Zhang Xiu is young, and Deng Jing doesn''t think Zhang Xiu can have much ability. Even if there are some abilities, they are limited.


    "Are you Zhang Xiu?"


    When Zhang Xiu entered the hall, Deng Jing raised his head, a look of contempt, condescending inquiry.


    Zhang Xiu sees Deng Jing''s expression and knows that it''s not the right person to come.


    Deng Jing is here to ask for a crime.


    Zhang Xiu''s expressionless face ignores Deng Jing, so she walks by Deng Jing''s side, and then takes a seat in the theme.


    When Deng Jing saw this, he was furious.


    Zhang Xiu deceives others too much.


    Even ignore him!


    In Xinye County, even the magistrate of Xinye county should be respectful to Deng Jing. Even in the name of Nanyang Prefecture, in front of Deng Jing, also polite.


    Why does Zhang Xiu ignore him?


    Deng jingnu came from it and said again: "Zhang Xiu, what can I ask you? Are you deaf and can''t hear me


    Zhang Xiu looks up and her eyes fall on Deng Jing.


    The eyes are deep and cold.


    Deng Jing is staring at by Zhang Xiu. Seeing the deep vision, he shivers for no reason. In a twinkling, this silk''s heart palpitation, was swept away by anger, his face was fierce, a pair of fierce look, and Zhang Xiu looked at each other.


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "are you Deng Jing?"


    "Yes


    Deng Jing replied.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "when you go out, the head was clamped by the door, or the head was kicked by the donkey, so the brain is not normal."


    When Deng Jing heard the speech, he was even more furious.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so rude to him.


    Damn it!


    Deng Jing scolded in his heart and said: "Zhang Xiu, be careful that misfortunes come from your mouth."


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "I have lived for more than 20 years. I really don''t know how to write the four words" disaster comes from the mouth. ". In my opinion, it''s right for you to give it to you when it comes from the mouth. "


    "If you don''t have a problem with Deng Jing''s brain, how can you look like you should be beaten when you see Ben Jiang?"


    "You can''t figure it out. You can die."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this will give you a knife for free, to ensure a knife throat, so that you do not have the pain of reincarnation."


    "You, you..."


    Deng Jingshen pointed to Zhang Xiu, his body trembled slightly with anger, and said: "Zhang Xiu, you are too rampant."


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly and scolded: "don''t point at me. I don''t like being pointed at the most. If I can''t control myself, I''ll cut off your hand. "


    Wanton words, showing rampant.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t even care about Deng''s family, let alone Deng Jing. In particular, Deng Jing put on airs in front of him, which made Zhang Xiu have no good impression.Deng Jing was scolded speechless, angrily said: "Zhang Xiu, less nonsense. I came to Yuyang county this time for Deng Chen and Deng''s business. What''s your explanation for killing my Deng family''s children and swallowing my Deng family''s food? If you don''t come up with a reasonable answer, my Deng family will not give up. "


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "Deng Chen hoarded grain, bid up prices, harm the people of Yuyang County, the crime should be punished!"


    "He deserves to die."


    "The food of Deng''s business is all ill gotten gains. This will be collected directly. What''s the reasonable explanation for what we''re going to do? "


    "Ben will be here, no explanation."


    Zhang Xiu replied forcefully: "it''s the Deng family that sent you to ask questions. I will be able to kill Deng Chen and Deng Jing. In front of Ben, you''d better be honest, otherwise, be careful of the head on your neck. "


    Deng Jing didn''t think Zhang Xiu dared to do it. He said, "Zhang Xiu, if you don''t give the Deng family a statement, the Deng family will not give up."


    "No tears without a coffin."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, way: "come on!"


    At the command, the two soldiers quickly entered the hall and stood up with their heads raised.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take Deng Jing and open your mouth for 20 minutes. He has a bad mouth and can''t speak. Teach him how to speak. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went straight forward.


    Deng Jing saw this scene and said angrily, "Zhang Xiu, how dare you?"


    But as soon as Deng Jing''s voice fell, the soldiers stopped him and made him unable to move. Deng jingnian is nearly 40 years old. He is a literati. He has no power to bind a chicken. After being controlled by soldiers, he can''t struggle at all.


    Another soldier, with a cold face, swung his hand and fanned out.


    "Pa!"


    A slap rang through the hall.


    Deng Jing screamed miserably and immediately rang out.


    "Pa! "Pa!!"


    A loud slap reverberated in the hall.


    The soldiers showed no mercy to Deng Jing. After twenty slaps, his left and right cheeks were red and swollen. There was a little blood in his mouth.


    "Hiss! Hiss


    Deng Jing kept sucking cold air, hot pain on his face.


    His eyes, narrowed by swelling in his cheek, looked terrible.


    At this moment, Deng Jing was afraid.


    Zhang Xiu is not reasonable at all.


    He is a literati. When he meets soldiers and bandits, it''s not clear why.


    Although Deng Jing was afraid of Zhang Xiu''s ruthlessness, he didn''t give in. After taking a deep breath, he continued: "Zhang Xiu, even if you use force on me. But you don''t give the Deng family an explanation. Once the Deng family makes a move, you can''t have a foothold in Yuyang county. "


    "Haven''t you recognized the situation yet?" With a cold smile, Zhang Xiu said, "come on, give Deng Jing another twenty slaps."


    "Ah


    As soon as Deng Jing heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was so scared that he shivered and said, "don''t hit me, don''t hit me."


    But if the soldier didn''t hear it, he swung his hand and fell.


    "Pa! Pop! "Pop!"


    A loud slap in the face, again.


    After 20 slaps, Deng Jing''s head has become a pig''s head. Under the pressure of his red and swollen cheek, his mouth murmured together and it was inconvenient to speak.


    His handsome and elegant face was blue, purple and red, which was extremely embarrassing.


    At this moment, Deng Jing is about to cry.


    Zhang Xiu is too arrogant.


    He thought it would be a good job to come to Yuyang county. Unexpectedly, he bumped into the iron plate and was beaten by Zhang Xiu. Especially this is Yuyang County, which is Zhang Xiu''s territory. He doesn''t even have the strength to fight back.


    After being taught by Zhang Xiu, he was completely afraid.

 Chapter 44

    Zhang Xiu had time to wait for the soldiers to clean up Deng Jing before he waved his hand and let the soldiers back down. Looking at the miserable Deng Jing, Zhang Xiu said: "Deng Jing, does the Deng family in Nanyang want to be the enemy of this general?"


    "No! The Deng family dare not! "


    Deng Jing shook his head one after another.


    At the moment, he was afraid of being beaten by Zhang Xiu and didn''t dare to talk back. Because in front of Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t even have the right to speak. Once he talks back, he has to be cleaned up by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu, in particular, has no fear of the Deng family. It''s impossible to frighten Zhang Xiu with the Deng family.


    Deng Jing''s heart is full of resentment.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    I wish I could skin Zhang Xiu with cramps.


    But he had to bow his head under the eaves. In Yuyang county and Zhang Xiu''s site, he had to swallow his anger and dare not express Ruth''s mind. Now he has been slapped forty times, beaten not like a man, and his head is dizzy. If he continues, he is afraid that he will die in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Deng Jing''s heart has already thought well, and when he returns to Deng''s home, he will add oil and vinegar to persuade the owner to start with Zhang Xiu.


    He believes that the strength of the Deng family today is enough to teach Zhang Xiu a lesson.


    He wants Zhang Xiu to regret it.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Deng Jing''s words, she didn''t believe it at all. She disdained to say, "your words are not from your heart. She said that the Deng family didn''t dare to be enemies with the general. In fact, your heart is thinking, after you return to the Deng family, you should let the Deng family teach me a lesson immediately, right


    "General Zhang, I dare not."


    Deng Jing heart a Lin, honest answer.


    His inner thoughts were seen through by Zhang Xiu. Although Zhang Xiu was young, he was quite old and not easy.


    Zhang Xiu stood up, looked down at Deng Jing from a high position, and said forcefully, "what do you think? I can''t manage it, and I don''t want to manage it. On behalf of the Deng family in Nanyang, you Deng Jing came up to the general''s office to ask questions. "


    "This is a declaration of war by the Deng family."


    "With your temperament, when you come back to the Deng family, you will certainly incite the leader of the Deng family to attack me. However, Ben won''t need you to go back and stir up, because Ben won''t wait for the Deng family to call. "


    "After you go back to Xinye, tell the master of the Deng family that he would have mobilized troops to Xinye South and come to the Deng family to start a crime. I''m not used to being passive. Since the Deng family declared war, I would have called the door and asked the Deng family to give me an explanation. "


    Zhang Xiu made a strong response.


    A tooth for a tooth, this is the posture of Zhang Xiu.


    If the Deng family wants to fight him, Zhang Xiu will not stay. She will lead the soldiers to the door to ask for an explanation.


    Brush!


    Deng Jing looks shocked.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu should have such courage. In particular, Zhang Xiu said it in front of him, which is tantamount to openly declaring war on the Deng family. Once she said this, Zhang Xiu would surely lead the army south.


    For a moment, Deng Jing was a little flustered.


    Deng family is not afraid of Zhang Xiu, but it does not mean that Deng family is really willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Deng asked him to question Zhang Xiu, let Zhang Xiu give a statement, is to shock and beat Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, it triggered a war. Such a thing will upset many of Deng''s plans.


    Once the Deng family is involved in the war and weakened, they will also have an impression on the foundation of the Deng family.


    This is what Deng Jing does not want to see.


    Deng Jing''s inner emotion was quite complicated. For a moment, he didn''t know how to answer.


    Zhang Xiu is not willing to say more, said: "roll back to Xinye, tell Deng''s owner, this will be going south."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Deng Jingying left in a hurry.


    After Deng Jing left, Zhang Xiu went back to her study and continued to deal with government affairs. He did not summon Xu Shu and Gan Ning for the time being, because they were busy with military affairs.


    In the evening, it''s close to dinner time.


    Zhang Xiu sent someone to invite Gan Ning and Xu Shu to have dinner together. After dinner, they went to the study to discuss business.


    Take your seat.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and asked, "Xing Ba, how is the whole army going?"


    Gan Ning''s face was full of self-confidence, and he replied: "report back to my Lord, the captured yellow scarf soldiers have been reorganized. More than 15000 yellow scarves have been selected and 2000 of them have been integrated into the army. The rest of the old and the weak will be resettled by army commander Xu. "


    Xu Shu took the words and said, "Lord, all the remaining ten thousand old and weak yellow scarf thieves are in custody together for the time being. Let them build fortifications and reclaim farmland. After waiting for a period of time, select the people who perform well and release them one by one. The humble consideration is that if too many people are released at one time, it is easy to cause turbulence. So, it will be released in batches. "


    "Yes, it''s a good idea."


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    More than 10000 people are released. Even if they are given some food, they may not become good people.


    These people have to be transformed.


    After unified arrangement, it is the most appropriate way to select and release those who are well reformed.


    Xu Shu changed his words and said, "the matter between Gong Du and Liu PI has been arranged. Outside the gate of the city, humble officials set up a high platform for the Lord to speak"Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "the Deng family in Nanyang sent Deng Jing to start a crime. Ben would have cleaned up Deng Jing, so he turned him out. I''ve asked Deng Jing to go back and tell the owner of Deng''s family that in the future, I''ll lead the soldiers to Xinye and go to the door to ask for a crime. It''s better to take the initiative than to be beaten passively. I want to take the initiative in this war. "


    After thinking about it, Xu Shu said: "Lord, the Deng family is in Xinye county. If we lead our troops to the south, we will have to pass the Nanyang garrison. Once the Nanyang garrison blocks it, it''s not easy to deal with the Deng family. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles and says, "Nanyang garrison, don''t you dare to stop us?"


    Xu Shu asked, "why?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "because this time we sent troops, we are famous. Deng Chen hoarded grain in Yuyang county and committed many crimes. The Deng family is guilty, but they go to Yuyang county to ask questions. It''s natural for me to fight back. "


    "If the garrison of Nanyang County blocks me, I will pose as a war."


    "We have defeated Gong Du and Liu PI, and we have made great achievements in this war, which is enough to frighten the army of Jingzhou. I conclude that the most likely thing is that the garrison of Nanyang Xinye will let us enter Xinye county and let us take the Deng family. "


    "Of course, I''m not afraid of war."


    "Liu Biao suffered a lot when it came to him. After all, Liu PI and Gong Du are both from Liu Biao. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "for the Deng family, I''m sure. A Deng business has so much food and money, not to mention the Deng family? The Deng family took the initiative to send them to the door, and I accepted them all. "


    After thinking about the cause and effect, Xu Shu said, "the Lord has decided, so he will not be admonished. He suggested that when Gong Du and Liu PI were killed tomorrow, the Lord mentioned the Deng family in front of the people. With the support of the people and the LORD out, Yuyang county will be as stable as Mount Tai. "


    Zhang xiudao: "no problem."


    He looked at Gan Ning and said, "Xing Ba, the original plan is to take Gong Du and Liu PI and go north after stabilizing the situation. Now, we have to change our plan and go south. I''ll give you three days to prepare, and in three days, come with me. "


    Gan Ning assured: "Lord, you can rest assured that you will finish the task. Three days later, I''m sure I can go out. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and asked about Yuyang county. All things discussed, has arrived late at night, Zhang Xiu let Xu Shu and Gan Ning down to rest, and he is also early rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early. After everything is done, she goes out of the county government and takes her soldiers to the south gate.


    Behind Zhang Xiu, there are two prison cars.


    Among them, Gong Du and Liu PI are the two most prominent prisoners. Today''s Gong Du and Liu PI are gloomy and have a look of lovelessness. After they were taken down, they lost their spirit because there was no way to survive.


    They become prisoners, but they want to surrender to Zhang Xiu and protect their lives. But if Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept it, there''s no way to surrender.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    The wheels turn and the cart keeps moving forward.


    When the carriage approached the South Gate of Yuyang County, there were more people on the street. Both Liu and Gong were talking.

 Chapter 45

    "The people in the prison wagon are gong Du and Liu PI. The two men, with yellow scarf thieves, came to Yuyang county to grab food, trying to break the Yuyang county. God damn the yellow scarf thief. "


    "General Zhang wanted to kill Gong Du and Liu PI. He killed them well, and they were very happy."


    In the crowd, some people spoke loudly.


    "Kill Gong Du, kill Liu PI!"


    "Kill Gong Du, kill Liu PI!"


    The people were shouting and the voices were rising one after another.


    With publicity in advance, the people were filled with righteous indignation and moved forward slowly with the team.


    Outside the south gate, countless people gathered.


    Around the circle of people, want to see Liu PI and Gong are punished.


    Everyone knows that the yellow scarf thieves plunder everywhere. Once the yellow scarf thieves break Yuyang County, the people in the city will not be spared. So people applauded Zhang Xiu''s decision to kill Gong Du and Liu PI.


    Arriving at the stage, the carriage stopped.


    Gong Du and Liu PI were escorted out of the carriage and knelt down on the platform.


    Soldiers stood around with knives.


    Dressed in a white robe and a Jinxian crown, Zhang Xiu strides onto the stage. At this time around the high platform, the crowd is dense, looking at all the people are moving.


    Roughly speaking, there are at least three or five thousand people.


    Everyone came to watch.


    Zhang Xiu is no stranger to the speech. He raises his hand and says in a loud voice, "be quiet!"


    With Zhang Xiu shouting, the surrounding gradually quieted down.


    Eyes, all fall on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said in a loud voice: "just yesterday, Gong Du and Liu PI led 20000 yellow scarf thieves to attack Yuyang county. After a fierce battle, the general defeated the yellow scarf thief and captured Gong Du and Liu PI


    "Gong Du and Liu PI are both yellow scarf thieves."


    "These two people are in Runan County, and they are in trouble."


    "Now, they are in the hands of general Ben, who is unwilling to surrender them and determined to bring them to justice."


    Zhang Xiu said with a great deal of Eloquence: "in fact, after Liu PI and Gong were both captured, they were ready to surrender and were willing to surrender to their generals. They are more powerful than Huang Jin. "


    "If you surrender two people, you can take this opportunity to attract more yellow scarf thieves."


    "However, Ben will refuse."


    "The reason why they refused was because Gong Du and Liu Pi''s hands were stained with the blood of countless people."


    "If you don''t kill them, it''s hard for the dead to rest."


    "If we don''t kill them, it will be hard for the dead people to die."


    Zhang Xiu''s face had a determined look and spoke out loud. His words were clearly heard by every common people. When people heard Zhang Xiu''s words, they were all excited and happy to have such officials as Zhang Xiu.


    The crowd is excited, the common people to Zhang Xiu, is incomparable approval.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    It is to take this opportunity to move the people, let the people stand on his side, and gather the strength of the people.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand again to signal the people to be quiet. When the surrounding people were quiet and everyone was quiet, Zhang Xiu said, "it happened that last night, there was another Deng family in Nanyang Xinye. They sent someone to pay a visit."


    "The name of the person from the Deng family is Deng Jing."


    "Speaking of Deng Jing, the villagers present don''t know who he is or what his connection is. But when it comes to another person, you''re no stranger. "


    "Deng Jing and Deng Chen are both from the Deng family of Nanyang Xinye. Deng Jing came to Yuyang county to avenge Deng Chen. As soon as he entered the county government, he questioned the general, asked me why I should kill Deng Chen, and asked me to give the Deng family a statement and compensate for the losses. "


    Zhang Xiu talks about the Deng family.


    After hearing the speech, the people began to talk about it again, and they were even more resentful of the Deng family.


    In Yuyang County, Deng Chen hoarded grain, raised house prices and suppressed Liangshan. People all said that Deng Chen''s conscience was eaten by dogs.


    Deng Jing, we need to discuss for Deng Chen.


    This makes the people unhappy.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "when Deng Jing came to Yuyang county to start a crime, it would not have been easy to provoke. My character is not afraid of anyone''s threat. Deng Jing threatened me to deal with me if he didn''t give the Deng family an explanation. "


    "In view of Deng Jing''s threat, I slapped him forty times and declared war on the Deng family."


    "The Deng family came to the door to ask for a crime. They were very aggressive."


    "But it''s not polite to come here. I told Deng Jing to go back to Xinye and tell the owner of the Deng family. I, Zhang Xiu, will lead the army south to Xinye county and come to Deng''s house to discuss a statement. "


    "I''d like to see what the Deng family can do. How dare they come to the door and ask a question."


    Zhang Xiu tone strong, said: "up to three days, this will go south Xinye.". This time we sent troops back to Xinye, not for other reasons, just to let everyone know that Yuyang county is inviolable. Who will come to Yuyang county to make trouble? I''m Zhang Xiu''s first one. "


    As soon as these words came out, the scene was applauded.Countless people, shouting the name of Zhang Xiu, are all extremely excited. They look at Zhang Xiu''s eyes, more fanatical color. Under Zhang Xiu''s successive actions, Baixin thoroughly supports Zhang Xiu.


    Under this premise, as long as Zhang Xiu gives an order, the people will surely follow.


    "General Zhang, we will join the army and fight against the Deng family together."


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    After these words came out, many people echoed. Zhang Xiu killed Deng Chen and opened a warehouse to relieve the disaster for the common people. Now the Deng family comes to ask for a crime, and the people are grateful for Zhang Xiu''s righteous deeds, and all say they want to join the army.


    They want to go south with Zhang Xiu and ask for an explanation from the Deng family.


    Zhang Xiu motioned for everyone to be quiet.


    The scene is quiet again.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said, "it''s the general''s business to lead the soldiers to fight. It is the duty of the soldiers in the army to defend their country and homeland. You are just ordinary people. You don''t need to fight on the battlefield. "


    "What you have to do is to cultivate the land well, keep your peace and live a good life. Let the parents have support, let the wife and children have enough food and clothing, let the family happy reunion


    "That''s what you should do."


    "The villagers are willing to follow me to the south. It''s your good intention. I''ll take care of it."


    "But you don''t fit in."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it would have been arranged to lead soldiers to fight. Please rest assured that no one can defeat Zhang Xiu on the battlefield. Going south to Xinye, I would have gone to Deng''s house to ask for justice. "


    When the people heard this, they cried out again.


    In all the shouting voices, there was fanaticism and excitement, even fanatical faith.


    Liu PI and Gong knelt aside, looking at the scene in front of them. They were shocked. In this scene, they had the feeling of deja vu. It seemed that when Zhang Jiao was alive, as long as Zhang Jiao raised his voice, countless people would respond to him.


    The people of Yuyang county have almost fanatical faith in Zhang Xiu.


    Two people at the moment regret in the heart, although Zhang Xiu is young, but the means is very old, they should not come to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.


    When Zhang Xiu finished her words, she saw the effect. As soon as the words changed, they fell on Gong Du and Liu PI, saying, "Gong Du and Liu PI are the people who are harming and killing countless people. They should be punished! Come on, execute


    At the command, the executioner came forward.


    "Poof!"


    The two executioners each took a sip of wine and sprayed it on the blade. Under the bright sun, the blade was shining, flashing cold light. Just listening to the executioner''s low drink, he swung his knife to cut it off.


    "Poof!"


    The blade fell and the blood spattered.


    "Bang! Bang


    Two round rolling head, fell to the ground, with red blood rolling a few times before stopping.


    Headless body, crash to the ground.


    Gong Du and Liu Bi were killed, and the people at the scene applauded. Countless people, with a happy look on their faces, did not feel afraid because of the splashing blood.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    In the crowd, some people suddenly cried out.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    ¡­¡­


    Countless people, shouting.


    Listening to this, Zhang Xiu thought of a similar scene when she distributed grain outside the Deng''s business. The difference is that the last time the people were grateful, this time, the people''s cry, but more fanatical support.

 Chapter 46

    In just a few days, people''s attitude towards Zhang Xiu has changed dramatically.


    From the beginning, the indifference to Zhang Xiu, and then to Zhang Xiu''s gratitude, finally turned into a fanatical support for Zhang Xiu. Even though Yuyang county is barren and the common people live in poverty, their hearts are united.


    If the people''s heart is there, everything will be easy.


    When people''s minds are broken, things can''t be done.


    Especially in today''s Yuyang County, the construction of fortifications, the reclamation of farmland and the construction of canals have shown a prosperous scene.


    All this has given the people hope.


    Especially after the events of Liu PI and Gong Du, the hearts of the people have been completely united.


    Everyone, unite as one.


    Zhang Xiu sees the changes of Yuyang County in her eyes, and she is also relieved. Only with the support of the people in Yangxian County, can he gain a firm foothold.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu left Yuyang county and went south to Xinye. Zhang Xiu left Yuyang county with Gan Ning and Huang Zhao, leaving Xu Shu in charge of the operation of Yuyang county.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops are only 2000.


    The rest of the soldiers stayed in Yuyang county.


    For Zhang Xiu, Yuyang county is the foundation and the base camp, and sufficient troops must be left to guard. When he went south to Xinye, it was mostly a small-scale friction, and it was impossible to have a large-scale war.


    When Zhang Xiu went down to the south, the Deng family in Xinye was very noisy.


    The Deng family in Xinye is a big family in Nanyang County.


    Looking at the whole Nanyang County, the Deng family is also ranked on the list, and the family power is not weak.


    The news that Zhang Xiu killed Deng Chen came back and set off waves in the Deng family. All the rooms of the Deng family agreed that Zhang Xiu should be severely punished and Zhang Xiu should pay the price. That''s why Deng Jing went north.


    But after Deng Jing came back, the Deng family suddenly became two schools.


    One faction, led by Deng Jing, firmly wanted to retaliate against Zhang Xiu and let her pay a heavy price.


    On the other hand, they advocated making peace with Zhang Xiu and apologizing. It''s not because Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards Deng Jingqiang is hard, but because the news that Zhang Xiu killed Liu bihao and Gong Du has spread to Xinye county.


    The Deng family is a big family with its own channels.


    They knew Liu PI and Gong Du well and knew that they were not weak. Even the powerful Liu PI and Gong Du are easily defeated by Zhang Xiu, which shows the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Under this premise, the conflict between the Deng family and Zhang Xiu may be affected. Even if the Deng family wins Zhang Xiu, it will pay a great price. This is the view of the moderates.


    People on both sides hold different opinions.


    Deng Xi, the leader of the Deng family, has never made a statement, so the two factions are at loggerheads.


    In the hall of the Deng family, the dispute continues.


    All the people in each room of the Deng family are in the hall.


    One by one, they fight for each other''s opinions and don''t give in to each other.


    Duncy is more than 50 years old, of medium build, a little fat, and his beard has turned grey. Although he was more than 50 years old, he was extremely energetic, his eyes were bright, and his audience argued carefully.


    "Newspaper!"


    In the dispute, outside the hall, a servant entered.


    With small steps, the attendant quickly entered the hall, saluted Deng Xi on the throne, and reported: "tell the master, Yuyang county will send back the news. Zhang Xiu led two thousand elite soldiers to the South and went straight to Xinye county. "


    WOW!!


    This remark caused a sensation.


    Countless people are discolored.


    When Deng Jing came back, he said that Zhang Xiu would come to the door to ask for a crime. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu really led the army south. If Zhang Xiu enters Xinye, there will be conflicts outside Deng''s residence.


    Even if the Deng family can resist, even if they can win, they will pay a heavy price.


    Deng Jing sat in the first place on the left side of the hall. The redness and swelling on his face had subsided a lot, but there was still some swelling. As soon as he heard the news, he immediately stood up with a look of righteous indignation.


    Deng Jing said: "the master of the family, Zhang Xiu is ambitious and wild. He will not give up if he leads the troops to the south this time. If we seek peace, it will make Zhang Xiu look down on us. I suggest that we mobilize Deng''s private soldiers and prepare to fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "Not the master of the house!"


    In the first place on the right side of the hall, stand up.


    This man is more than 40 years old and thin. His name is Deng can. He is in charge of the second room of the Deng family. He had a faint smile on his face, a good man''s attitude.


    "Deng can, do you still have the backbone? Zhang Xiu hit the door, and you asked to talk to her. You have lost all the faces of the Deng family. "


    Deng can said slowly: "what I care about is not my face, but the rise and fall of the Deng family."


    "Zhang Xiu is not an easy person."


    "Before, Cai Mao was planted in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Later, Gong Du and Liu PI were killed by Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao had nothing to do with Zhang Xiu. How can our Deng family resist Zhang Xiu?"Deng can said: "I don''t think we can compete with Zhang Xiu."


    Deng Jing disdained, sneered, retorted: "we don''t provoke Zhang Xiu, can Zhang Xiu give up? Deng can, think about it. Don''t be naive. What''s more, the Deng family has been in Xinye for more than 200 years? Where is the face of the Deng family? I, the Deng family, want face. "


    The rest of them, each of them.


    For a moment, there was a complete chaos in the hall.


    "Silence


    At this time, duncy spoke.


    His eyes swept through the hall of the people, the eyes of the place, one by one all silence, no longer speak.


    Deng Xi was able to take the position of the head of the family by his iron hand. Many members of the family died at duncy''s hands. Although he was old, he was still very eloquent in his family. No one dared to fight against duncy.


    As soon as Deng Jing returned to his house, he listened to Deng Jing''s report.


    The reason why Deng Xi didn''t make a statement was that he was waiting for Zhang Xiu''s action to see if Zhang Xiu would fulfill her promise and go south to Xinye.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t go south, Deng Xi is ready to calm down and stop pursuing Zhang Xiu''s killing Deng Chen. And once Zhang Xiu goes south, it''s not easy for the Deng family to calm down.


    At this time, the Deng family had already been forced into a corner and had no choice.


    Today, there is only one world war.


    Is the Deng family still a famous family?


    Where is the dignity of the Deng family?


    This is duncy''s consideration.


    Even so, Deng Xi does not intend to fight Zhang Xiu directly. His eyes twinkled with light, stroked the beard under his jaw, and said without hesitation: "if Zhang Xiu goes to Xinye in the south, to enter Xinye territory, he must first pass the Xinye garrison."


    "Xie Yu, the general stationed in Xinye, is the most important person. If Xie Yu does not agree with Zhang Xiu''s entry, then the 2000 elite soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command will not be able to reach the county seat. "


    "If Zhang xiuqiang breaks through, he will have to fight Xie Yu, and we can watch from the wall."


    "The top priority is to contact Xie Yu."


    Duncy''s tone was light but heavy, and everyone listened carefully.


    Deng Xi continued: "Xie Yu is greedy and lustful. As long as he is good, he will be used by the Deng family. Deng Jing, you take a hundred taels of gold from your family and three singers to the border of Xinye county. You must persuade Xie Yu to stop Zhang Xiu. I want to see how Zhang Xiu can pass Xie Yu. "


    "Here it is


    Deng Jing bowed down.


    Deng Xi turned his eyes, looked at the others, and said, "the Deng family and Zhang Xiu, whether they are fighting or fighting, don''t care for the moment. Let''s see the conflict between Zhang Xiu and Xie Fu. Wait, no more trouble. "


    Deng can boasted: "we have been arguing for a long time, but there is no way to deal with it. The owner of the family had a long-term vision and resolved the crisis in front of the Deng family with one move


    Others, too, agreed.


    They all agreed with duncy''s approach.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to go to the door to ask for a crime, which was put forward by Zhang Xiu himself. Deng Xi''s move is to fight against Zhang Xiu with the help of Xie Yu. If Zhang Xiu can''t even pass Xie Yu''s pass and can''t enter Xinye, what else can he talk about?


    If Zhang Xiu can''t go south, it becomes a joke.

 Chapter 47

    Li village, Xinye county.


    This place is located in the north of Xinye, bordering on Yuyang county. If you want to enter Xinye from Yuyang County, you must go through Li village.


    Liu Biao''s garrison is here.


    The general of the garrison is Xie Yu, who leads 6000 elite soldiers to camp here.


    Most of the time, Xie Yu is OK.


    After all, Jingzhou is stable.


    Barracks, big accounts of the Chinese army.


    A strong general with a bearded back, a swallow chin and a tiger beard, is engaged in official business. This person is no other than Xie Yu. He is a native of Shanyang County and a fellow of Liu Biao.


    Because of this, Xie Yu was able to stay here and take charge of the security in the north of Jingzhou.


    Xie Yu finished his official business and began to check the latest information. When he saw Zhang Xiu kill Gong Du and Liu PI, he was surprised and murmured: "Zhang Xiu has some skills. He can take Gong Du and Liu PI. In this way, the Lord''s plan to deal with Zhang Xiu with the help of the yellow scarf thieves failed again. "


    Xie Yu knows Liu Biao''s mind.


    Xie Yu sighed and read the news. When he saw the conflict between Zhang Xiu and the Deng family, he shook his head and said, "although Zhang Xiu has some skills, she is arrogant and makes enemies everywhere. It''s just Zhang Xiu. It''s too arrogant to dare to come to the Deng family and ask for a crime. "


    Xie Yu disagrees with Zhang Xiu''s practice.


    In his opinion, after Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County, she should keep a low profile, not such a high profile.


    It is not wise to offend the Deng family.


    After all, the Deng family is a local leader.


    After reading all the news and handling the affairs in hand, Xie Yu arranged for the soldiers to summon the singer around him to dance.


    It is reasonable to say that female dependents are not allowed to enter the army. But Xie Yu is the chief General of the army and Liu Biao''s fellow countryman. When he takes a woman into the army, no one dares to say anything.


    In the camp, the singer dances.


    The sound of silk and bamboo is full of decadence.


    Xie Yu enjoys singing and dancing, squints her eyes and sips a sip of wine from time to time.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, the voice of a soldier sounded outside the camp.


    After hearing this, Xie Yu waved her hand to the back of the screen, where she rested, and said, "come in!"


    The tent curtain was lifted and the soldiers entered.


    Xie Yu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Bowing, the soldier replied, "report back to the general. Deng Jing asks to see you."


    As soon as Xie Yu raised her eyebrows and thought a little, she understood Deng Jinglai''s intention and said, "let him in!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldier got the order, he immediately turned and exited.


    After a while, Deng Jing entered the Chinese army tent and said, "Deng Jing met general Xie."


    With a faint smile on her face, Xie Yu said with a smile: "brother Deng is visiting. I don''t know what''s important? You are a busy man. You always go to the three treasures hall. I''m afraid I have something important to do when I come here today. "


    In fact, Xie Yu and Deng Jing know each other.


    Sometimes, the Deng family would ask Xie Yu for help, while Deng Jing was responsible for external liaison and had been in contact with Xie Yu.


    Deng Jing said, "I''m here to ask general Xie to do me a favor."


    Xie Yu said, "what''s up?"


    Deng Jing didn''t hide it either. He opened his door and said, "general Xie should know that the business of Deng''s family in Yuyang county was sealed up by Zhang Xiu. Deng Chen, the manager of Deng''s business in Yuyang County, also died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    Xie Yu said: "this will be known."


    Deng Jing said: "for the sake of Deng Chen and the business, I went north on the order of my master and asked Zhang Xiu to give an account to the Deng family. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu not only didn''t pay for it, but also made a big fuss and wanted to go south to Xinye and come to Deng''s house to ask for a crime. "


    "When Zhang Xiu goes south, he should go through Li village."


    "Deng Jing implored the general to stop Zhang Xiu from going south."


    General Xie''s eyes must have been blocked by Zhang Jieao


    After listening, Xie Yu narrowed her eyes.


    Deng''s good abacus, let him stop Zhang Xiu, with the help of his strength against Zhang Xiu.


    Xie Yu said, "it''s difficult to do this."


    Deng Jing is not impatient, said: "as we all know, Liu Jingzhou is very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu. Because of this, we will attack Zhang Xiu with the help of Liu PI and Gong Du. "


    "But Zhang Xiu killed Liu PI and Gong Du, which failed Liu Jingzhou''s plan."


    "I think Liu Jingzhou will be angry."


    "If general Xie obstructs Zhang Xiu and makes Zhang Xiu lose face, and the news spreads to Jingzhou and Liu Jingzhou, Liu Jingzhou will certainly favor the general."


    "In addition, the Deng family will be grateful," Deng said


    After hearing this, Xie Yu immediately became interested. She leaned forward slightly and asked with a smile, "how can you thank Ben Jiang, Deng family?"


    Deng Jing said, "come on!"Just listen to Deng jingphen''s voice, outside the camp tent, a servant carrying a box into. In addition, there are also three graceful and beautiful singers to follow.


    Deng Jing opened the box, revealing the golden gold inside, and said with a smile, "general Deng, this is real gold, one hundred taels of gold. One of the three singers is good at dancing, the other is good at playing the flute, and the other is good at playing the piano. Each of them has his own strong points and can make the general enjoy himself. "


    "Oh, interesting, interesting."


    On hearing this, Xie Yu looks at the three singers.


    These three singers are graceful and plump with bulging breasts.


    It''s the best.


    When Xie Yu saw the glittering gold in the box, he laughed, waved his hand and said, "Deng Jing, your heart, I''ve got it. Just one hundred taels of gold is not enough. Just imagine, if this will be released, Zhang Xiu will go to the door to ask a crime, and lose the face of the Deng family. Is the face of the Deng family worth the money? "


    Deng Jing''s mouth twitches.


    Xie Yu is really greedy.


    One hundred taels of gold is already a large sum. Unexpectedly, Xie Yu despises it.


    Deng Jing''s eyes turned. After thinking about it, he said: "general Xie, my Deng family is willing to take out two hundred taels of gold. The gold in the box is the sincerity of the Deng family. After the event, the Deng family offered another hundred taels of gold. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    After hearing this, Xie Yu smiles and says, "Deng Jing, go back and tell Deng Xi that Zhang Xiu will be stopped. Zhang Xiu can defeat Liu PI and Gong Du, but she can''t stop the general''s army. In front of this general, Zhang Xiu is no better than you. "


    "That''s a lot for general Deng."


    When Deng Jing heard this, he was relieved.


    He didn''t stay much. He winked at the three singers and turned away. Although the singer gave them to Xie Yu, they were cultivated by the Deng family. They had to help the Deng family speak, and they had to turn a deaf ear to Xie Yu.


    Xie Yu looked at the three women, staring at the bulging chest, looking at each other''s slender waist, the heart is already rising desire. He directly stood up and took the three women to the resting place behind the screen.


    Soon after, there were bursts of music.


    However small half column fragrant time, Xie Yu wears well, takes several women to come out.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the camp, the voice of the soldiers sounded again.


    Xie Yu raised his belt, waved his hand to let the women back down, and said, "come in!"


    The tent curtain was lifted and the soldiers entered.


    After saluting, the soldier hugged his fist and said, "general, the sentry has sent back the message. At the border of Yuyang County, Zhang Xiu''s army was found. Now, Zhang Xiu is leading the soldiers straight to Li village. It''s eight miles away from us. "


    Xie Yu''s eyes narrowed when she heard it.


    Finally!


    Zhang Xiu''s skill will depend on what he has.

 Chapter 48

    Xie Yu said, "summon the whole army to gather in the school yard."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have orders. Send them at once.


    Xie Yu got up and went back to the screen. She asked Ge Ji to put on his armor, put on his sword, and strode out of the camp with his helmet in hand.


    In the school yard, there was constant shouting and drinking.


    One by one soldiers, quickly run into the school field array. It took nearly half an hour for all the soldiers to gather.


    All the soldiers look lazy and loose.


    Xie Yu was stationed at the border of Xinye county and had not encountered any war for many years. He assembled suddenly, and the soldiers in the army were not used to it.


    Xie Yu felt good about himself, facing all the soldiers, he said in a loud voice: "all the soldiers, go out with this general." He did not say what it was. He left the barracks with his soldiers and went straight to the juncture of Yuyang county and Xinye.


    The army set out to block the way south.


    Xie Yu stands on his horse and waits quietly.


    As time goes by, Xie Yu''s patience fades away. When he is impatient, he suddenly sees smoke rising on the official road in front of him, and an army rushes towards the border.


    "General, here comes Zhang Xiu!"


    Among the generals, a soldier called out.


    "Ben will not be blind, see."


    Xie Yu snorted and looked up at the front. As the distance narrowed, he clearly saw the troops coming.


    At the front is Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu with soldiers on the way, all the way to send sentries. Xie Yu arrived at the border, he got the news early. Xie Yu leads the troops to block the way, but also in Zhang Xiu''s expectation, is not a strange thing.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    A hundred steps!


    Eighty steps!


    When the distance narrowed to 20 steps, Zhang Xiu raised her hand and ordered all the soldiers under her command to stop.


    The army was arrayed in a murderous manner.


    The two armies confronted each other and made decisions with high momentum.


    Knowing Xie Yu''s situation, Zhang Xiu rode forward and said, "General Zhang Xiu, who is general Xie Yu?"


    Xie Yu stepped forward, holding his head high, and said, "General Zhang, this will be Xie Yu. I don''t know what happened when General Zhang took his army south to Xinye? "


    Zhang Xiu opened the door to the mountain and said: "I went to Xinye in the south for nothing else, just to seek justice at the Deng family in Xinye. General Xie, this is Zhang''s private affair. Please make it convenient for general Xie. "


    This is a ceremony before a soldier.


    Zhang Xiu goes south to Xinye. Instead of killing her directly, she asks Xie Yu to give way in a euphemistic tone.


    This is for Liu to show his face.


    If Xie Yu doesn''t agree, Zhang Xiu will attack Xie Yu. In this way, Zhang Xiu will be able to stand up even in front of Liu Biao.


    Xie Yu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, with a look of greed in her eyes, and said with a smile: "it''s not impossible for general Zhang to go south to Xinye. But you have to agree to Ben''s terms. "


    Zhang Xiu asked: "what conditions?"


    Xie Yu said: "in order to ask Ben Jiang to stop General Zhang, the Deng family specially offered two hundred taels of gold. If general Zhang can give more money, Xie will give way immediately. If you can''t take it out, please go back the same way. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu a listen, immediately laughed.


    Xie Yu said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "it''s true that Xie Yu is greedy and lustful, and takes money as his life. Ridiculous Deng, with two hundred taels of gold, found people who are greedy. With you, Xie Yu, can you stop this general? "


    Xie Yu''s eyes, immediately on the evil down.


    Zhang Xiu is too shameful.


    He took the initiative to mention the conditions, is to give Zhang Xiu face, is to let Zhang Xiu have a step down, but Zhang Xiu toast not to drink.


    Xie Yu said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, I only accept some money from you, and then I let you go in and out of Xinye county. It''s full of sincerity and face. If you don''t agree, don''t go south to Xinye county. "


    Zhang Xiu said forcefully: "if you want money, you don''t have any copper. Even if you lead the troops to stop, Ben will go south. Don''t say you only have 6000 people under your command. Even if you are tens of thousands of soldiers, you will not be taken seriously. In the eyes of this general, you are a local chicken and a local dog. "


    "How dare you?"


    Xie Yu scolded: "I''m here. Do you dare to fight?"


    In Xie Yu''s heart, he firmly believes that Zhang Xiu does not dare to fight. After all, Zhang Xiu nominally belongs to Liu Biao. If Zhang Xiu forced her way south, she would be offending Liu Biao.


    When the news comes to Xiangyang, Liu Biao will be angry, which is Xie Yu''s confidence.


    Moreover, Xie Yu thinks highly of himself.


    He also did not put Zhang Xiu in the eyes, that Zhang Xiu just two thousand soldiers is not enough to fear.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "you Xie Yu are in Xinye county. Besides playing with women, I really don''t know what other skills you have. Today, I''ll weigh it and see what you can do. "


    Xie Yu is angry.Zhang Xiu is so deceiving that she despises him so much.


    As a person with high self-esteem, Zhang Xiu despises her so much that she is extremely angry.


    At this moment, Xie Yu said: "Zhang Xiu, if you have the courage, you will fight."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I didn''t want to fight, but if you want to fight, I will fight. I''m Zhang Xiu. I''ll accompany you to the end. "


    Xie Yu clenched her fists and knew that the exhibition would begin. She immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare for the war, and then said, "I''d like to see how you Zhang Xiu go south to Xinye. I''m Xie Yu here. You can''t take a step. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered with disdain.


    Just Xie Yu, what do you care?


    Originally, Zhang Xiu believed that even if there were small-scale friction, there would not be a big war. But now, Xie Yu wants to go to war, and Zhang Xiu will accompany her to the end.


    Zhang Xiu takes out the golden spear with tiger''s head. The long spear shakes in the air. The tip of the spear points to the front, with a cold look and a sense of indifference.


    "Kill


    Behind Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning cried out.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers followed the cry, one after another, resounding in the air, converging into a golden iron horse, just like a torrent, scouring the hearts of every soldier in Xinye garrison.


    The two thousand soldiers showed their intention to kill, and the majestic momentum seemed to come from thousands of troops and horses.


    The soldiers of Xinye garrison, who had been out of battle for a long time, were afraid and their courage was weakened by three points.


    "Kill


    As soon as Zhang Xiu shakes his horse''s reins, he takes the gun and shoots out.


    Ganning led the soldiers and followed them.


    Zhang Xiu is like an arrow away from the string. When he galloped out, he saw Xie Yu''s soldiers flinch and his face was full of disdain.


    Although Xie Yu said that he would stop him from going south to Xinye, there were no fortifications, not even archers, so the defense was useless.


    Xie Yu saw Zhang Xiu come to kill him. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a soldier handed him a six foot sword. A knife in the hand, Xie Yu''s eyes swept a light, the horse to kill.


    "Zhang Xiu, look at the knife!"


    Xie Yu roared, but also quickly meet.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than three Zhang, Xie Yu took the lead in swinging his sword and slashed at Zhang Xiu.


    The sword fell down in a ferocious manner.


    It''s just such a move that falls into Zhang Xiu''s eyes, but it looks like a child''s play.


    He clenched the golden spear in his hand, and the long spear came out like a dragon going out to sea. The tip of the gun pokes on the blade impartially, and the sound of "Ding" is heard.


    The blade deflected and fell from one side.


    In Xie Yu blade with the old fall of the moment, Zhang Xiu long gun steep turn, a gun sweep, then mercilessly beat out.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s sudden attack, Xie Yu can''t escape in a hurry.


    "Pa!"


    A dull sound, the barrel of the gun hit Xie Yu''s left rib.


    At that moment, there was a click.


    Xie Yu''s left ribs, two broken, severe pain from the ribs.


    "Ah


    The scream came from Xie Yu''s mouth.


    The next moment, Xie Yu only felt that there was overwhelming power, impacting his body. Although Xie Yu is big, but under the strength of Zhang Xiu''s stick, his body flies upside down, and then flies out from behind.


    People in the air across an arc, slamming to the ground.


    Xie Yu fell on the ground, pale, mouth actually spit out a mouthful of blood.


    At this moment, Xie Yu''s whole body is in pain, and the skeleton of his whole body seems to be scattered, and he can''t lift a trace of strength any more.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid, and a shadow came to Xie Yu in an instant.


    "Hum!"


    The tip of the gun shakes and stops in front of Xie Yu''s chest.


    Zhang Xiu gallops up and stops in front of Xie Yu. The sharp gun tip, flashing cold light, as long as a little further forward, it is enough to pierce Xie Yu''s heart.

 Chapter 49

    The scene of Xie Yu''s defeat was seen by the soldiers who just rushed out from behind. At the moment, before they fight with Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, they see that Xie Yu is defeated and is still controlled by Zhang Xiu.


    In an instant, everyone stops.


    The faces of the soldiers were at a loss.


    Xie Yu is defeated. What should they do?


    There is a very funny scene on the battlefield, all the soldiers under Xie Yu''s command are no longer forward, all stop in place. One by one, staring at Xie Yu, who was restrained, it was neither entering nor retreating.


    In the rear, Ganning also ordered the army to stop advancing and line up behind Zhang Xiu.


    Ganning couldn''t help grinning.


    He is also a veteran. He has fought countless battles and seen countless situations, but he was defeated when he first met the general.


    Xie Yu is a wonderful flower.


    Zhang xiuxiao said, "Xie Yu, do you think I can kill you?"


    "You dare not kill me."


    Xie Yu choked her neck, endured the pain of her body, and yelled: "Zhang Xiu, if you kill me, you will certainly annoy the Lord. Once the Lord is angry, he will lead the army northward. You can''t have a foothold in Yuyang County under the guidance of the Lord. "


    The corners of Zhang Xiu''s mouth bring up a disdainful smile.


    Is he afraid of Liu Biao?


    Obviously not!


    When Zhang Xiu didn''t get food and weapons, Liu Biao could kill Zhang Xiu regardless of the lives of CAI Mao and wenpin. But now, Zhang Xiu has a foothold in Yuyang county and has nearly ten thousand elite soldiers under her command. Liu Biao can''t have any chance to win him.


    Even if it is weaker than Liu Biao.


    Now, Zhang Xiu can compete with Liu Biao.


    What''s more, Liu Biao is not a combative man. As long as Zhang Xiu does not get angry, does not involve Liu Biao''s scale, Liu Biao can not go north to attack Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu cold face, mention tiger head golden gun, mercilessly poke.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun pierces the skin and penetrates Xie Yu''s left shoulder.


    All of a sudden, blood was flowing.


    The red blood soaked Xie Yu''s left shoulder. Severe pain attack, Xie Yu pain scream, the body can''t help shaking.


    Zhang Xiu pulled out her gun and asked, "do you think I dare to kill you?"


    Xie Yu''s face was pale, and she wanted to say she didn''t dare. But when the words came to my mouth, I immediately swallowed them back. He thought that Zhang Xiu did not dare to kill him, but unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu poked a hole in his shoulder.


    I didn''t kill him, but I hurt him.


    Xie Yu firmly believes that Zhang Xiu doesn''t dare to kill him, but at this time, he doesn''t dare to be brave at all. If you try to be brave again, you may get a hole again.


    So, Xie Yu is soft.


    Xie Yu endured the pain and said, "General Zhang dares to kill me. General Zhang, Xie Yu is wrong. It''s Xie Yu who has eyes and doesn''t know Mount Tai. He offends General Zhang. Please raise your hand. Adults don''t care about villains. "


    For the sake of his life, Xie Yu doesn''t care about his face and asks for mercy directly.


    He and Zhang Xiu battle, rib broken several, left shoulder was poked a hole, bleeding, and then go on like this, even if Zhang Xiu don''t kill him, he won''t die will be seriously injured


    Zhang Xiu face with a faint smile, said: "but you offended this general, how do you say?"


    For Xie Yu, Zhang Xiu really didn''t plan to kill her.


    Xie Yu is rampant, and Zhang Xiu is the one to clean up, which is enough to make Xie Yu bow. To this extent, even if the news reached Liu Biao''s ears, Liu Biao was angry and could not find any reason to deal with him.


    Because Xie Yu made a mistake first.


    If Zhang Xiu killed Xie Yu, it would be tantamount to tearing open Liu Biao''s face and beating Liu Biao''s face.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about Liu Biao. Even in Zhang Xiu''s plan, he will annex Jingzhou in the future. The annexation of Jingzhou is not an immediate matter, but a future plan.


    In a short time, Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao should at least maintain superficial harmony.


    Xie Yu''s eyes turned and said, "General Zhang, there are one hundred taels of gold in our army. The Deng family just sent them. If I don''t have any questions, I''ll send them all to General Zhang. Please give him a hand. "


    Zhang Xiu snorted, disdaining a way: "your life, is worth this money?"


    "Ah


    Xie Yu was bleeding in his heart and was unwilling to pay. He quickly explained, "General Zhang, it''s my limit to take out one hundred taels of gold. I really don''t have any more money to wait for. "


    But Zhang Xiu is speechless, carrying a gun and stabbing a gun in Xie Yu''s right shoulder.


    One shot down, blood all over the place.


    Xie Yu''s face is full of ferocity caused by pain. When he looked at Zhang Xiu, his eyes were afraid, as if he were looking at a devil. He just explained that he wanted to pay less, but he didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to shoot directly without saying a word.


    This is too overbearing.


    But Xie Yu was helpless.


    Xie Yu endured the pain, felt the weakness of blood flow, opened his mouth to explain, but the words to his mouth and swallow back.He was afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    In case the mouth doesn''t agree with Zhang Xiu''s mind, how can he be shot again?


    After thinking, Xie Yu asked, "General Zhang, what conditions do you want to release people?"


    Zhang Xiu weighed the golden spear in her hand and said, "how much is it for you, Xie Yu. You can give as much as you think your life is worth. But you have to be careful in case I''m not satisfied. The next shot will be in your lap. "


    Brush!


    Xie Yu''s face changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu does not say conditions, it is the lion big mouth, because he can not touch the bottom line of Zhang Xiu.


    Xie Yu knew that he was shot today and had to bleed heavily. He took a deep breath, endured the pain from his body, gritted his teeth and said, "General Zhang, I''ll give you 600 taels of gold. This is my limit. No matter how much, you can only sell iron by smashing the pot. "


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows in surprise.


    I didn''t expect that Xie Yu, a frontier general, could take 600 taels of gold.


    In this era, there are always rewards.


    But the "gold" here is not real gold, but gold made of brass, so it can be rewarded in large quantities. But when it comes to real gold, it will be mentioned in its full name, not how much gold.


    Six hundred taels of gold is not a small amount.


    From this, we can also see Xie Yu''s greed. A general at the border can easily take out 600 taels of gold.


    Zhang Xiu knows that Xie Yu has more than this wealth, but it''s enough to get 600 taels of gold from Xie Yu''s hands. He doesn''t talk nonsense any more, and orders: "come on, set Xie Yu''s bones and treat the injury."


    Ganning heard Zhang Xiu''s order, immediately let the doctor come forward, give Xie Yu bandage wound, treatment ribs.


    After a period of governance, Zhang Xiu looked at Xie Yu, who was wrapped in rice dumplings, and said, "Xie Yu, let your soldiers take a day''s dry food and go south to Xinye with Ben."


    "Here it is


    Xie Yu did not dare to say more and immediately gave the order.


    Arrange the soldiers to get dry food, Xie Yu and alone called to the side of the confidant, let the confidant to the camp to get money. He has been stationed in Xinye, and his money is in the army.


    The soldiers stationed in Nanyang are afraid that Xie Yu will be caught, so they can only return to the camp according to the order, bring a day''s dry food, and come to Zhang Xiu''s side.


    At the same time, Xie Yu''s six hundred taels of gold came with him.


    Zhang Xiu accepted the money with a smile and said with a smile: "Xie Yu, you are the third one captured by this general. The first is Cai Mao, the second is wenpin, and the third is you. All in all, it''s your pleasure. "


    Xie Yu embarrassed way: "yes, yes, this is my honor."


    After a pause, Xie Yu said, "General Zhang, I don''t mind if you take the garrison to Xinye. You see, I''m seriously injured and can''t travel long distances. Can you let me go back to the barracks to have a rest. I''ve given the money and the people. I''ll listen to General Zhang. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "no way."


    When Xie Yu heard the speech, he withered.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t pay any attention to Xie Yu any more. She ordered the soldiers to call for a wooden cart, put Xie Yu on the wooden cart, and then took the army south to Xinye.


    This time, 8000 soldiers went south.


    In addition to the two thousand elite soldiers around Zhang Xiu, there are six thousand soldiers of Xie Yu. The army is mighty and fierce.

 Chapter 50

    Deng family, Xinye county.


    In the study.


    Deng Xi, wearing a sky blue broad collar shirt, is practicing calligraphy.


    What he imitates is the flying white body. The so-called flying white body is the original creation of Cai Yong. Just as the saying goes, taking the hair handwriting is called the white body, and the one whose momentum is like flying is called the flying white body, so it is called the flying white body.


    This kind of font is very rhythmic and pleasing to the eye.


    Deng Xi began to copy it with a smile and a frown.


    "Dong! Dong


    Outside the study, there was a knock on the door. The sudden knock on the door startled duncy. His hand trembled, the brush stopped, the ink increased, and the words were destroyed.


    If one word is destroyed, the whole pair of words will lose its ornamental value.


    Duncy''s anger rose at once.


    "Come in!"


    He said, suppressing his anger.


    The door creaked and the housekeeper bowed in. Just the moment the housekeeper entered, he saw the pen in dengxi''s hand, especially his face was as gloomy as water, and his heart thumped.


    Don''t disturb Deng Xi when he is practicing calligraphy. This is a taboo of the family.


    But he made a taboo.


    When the housekeeper walked, his legs trembled slightly, saluted and said, "master!"


    "What''s the matter?" asked duncy


    Guan Jiachen reported: "Deng Jing and Deng can jointly asked for a meeting and said that there were 100000 urgent things to report."


    "In a hurry?"


    Deng Xi stares at big eye son, scold a way: "hundred thousand urgent?"? In my opinion, I''m afraid it''s bullshit again. You have been following me for many years. Don''t you know that I practice calligraphy at this time every day? Son of a bitch, he''s too old to see


    "Plop!"


    The housekeeper was so scared that his legs softened. He knelt down on the ground and said with his head, "the old slave is guilty. Please punish him."


    Dengxi waved his hand and said, "get out of here!"


    "Yes, yes!"


    The housekeeper quickly got up and stepped down.


    Although dengxi was angry in his heart, he would not vent his anger on his confidants. With anger, he walked out of the study and went straight to the hall. Looking at Deng Jing and Deng can standing together in the hall, Deng Xi was not angry.


    Dengxi said in a strange way: "tell me what happened. I''m curious about what can make you two put down your prejudice and come to see me together. "


    Duncy''s heart, ready to get angry.


    Once Deng Jing and Deng can can can''t tell who is ugly, he will certainly bombard them.


    Deng Jinglian said: "master, Zhang Xiu has come straight to the county."


    "Ah


    When Deng Xi heard the speech, he exclaimed.


    At this moment, dengxi''s heart, set off a huge wave, his face is the expression of incredible.


    How can Zhang Xiu go south?


    Originally, because of practicing calligraphy, Deng Xi was ready to get angry with Deng Jing and Deng can. But as soon as I heard the news that Zhang Xiu went straight to the county, the idea of getting angry was thrown out of the sky.


    It''s all about Zhang Xiu.


    "Gudong!"


    Deng Xi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and then inquired: "Deng Jing, you have convinced Xie Yu, and let Xie Yu stop Zhang Xiu, and you have given an extra hundred taels of gold. With Xie Yu in town, how can Zhang Xiu go south? "


    Deng Jingchen reported: "home owner, Xie Yu has fulfilled his promise. Zhang Xiu south, Xie Yu really to stop. But Xie Yu not only failed, but also was captured by Zhang Xiu. Now Zhang Xiu escorts Xie Yu, and escorts Xie Yu''s 6000 soldiers straight to the county seat. "


    "This, this, how is this possible? Xie Yu, you shouldn''t be so weak! "


    Duncy thinks it''s incredible.


    When Zhang Xiu went south to Xinye, he brought only 2000 elite people.


    Under Xie Yu''s command, there are six thousand elite soldiers.


    With Xie Yu''s strength, it is easy to stop Zhang Xiu. Even if Xie Yu can''t stop it, it''s easy to retreat.


    But Xie Yu was captured alive.


    Deng Jing was worried and said eagerly: "master, it''s time. It''s meaningless to analyze the reason why Zhang Xiu went south. What we should consider now is how to resist Zhang Xiu. Before long, Zhang Xiu will arrive at the county seat. "


    In Deng Jing''s heart, Zhang Xiu is dying.


    But now, Deng Jing is very afraid.


    As the first person to deal with Zhang Xiu, Deng Jing knows that Zhang Xiu is terrible. Once Zhang Xiu arrives at the door of Deng''s family, and Zhang Xiu still carries Xie Yu''s 6000 elite soldiers, it will be extremely difficult for the Deng family to resist.


    Deng can also said: "master, what should I do?"


    Either Deng Jing or Deng can was flustered, at a loss and didn''t know how to deal with it. They stare at Deng Xi and wait for Deng Xi''s solution.


    With a serious face and hands on his back, duncy paced back and forth in the hall.


    He thought for a long time, but he couldn''t break the game.


    This time, the Deng family lost!


    In particular, Zhang Xiu not only has 2000 soldiers, but also escorts Xie Yu to the south, which the Deng family can''t compete with at present.Deng Xi sighed and said, "in the current situation, I can''t think of a solution. This time, the Deng family can only ask for peace in order to get Zhang Xiu''s forgiveness. "


    "For peace?"


    Deng Jing exclaimed: "master, Zhang Xiu is not a good person. Let''s make peace. I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will open her mouth. "


    Duncy said, "do you have a solution?"


    He shook his head helplessly. He couldn''t find a solution.


    Dengxi said, "if you can''t help it, just shut up."


    "Now, go north at once. Before Zhang Xiu arrives at the county seat, be sure to see Zhang Xiu and express to him the opinion of Deng Jiaqiu and giving up defeat. "


    "You have three things to do."


    "First, when Deng Chen was killed, the Deng family admitted that there was a mistake first; second, when Deng''s business was closed down, the Deng family admitted that it was planted; third, when Deng''s family came to the door to provoke, they were willing to pay compensation first."


    After Deng xiphene finished, he said harshly, "you are only allowed to succeed in this trip, not to fail."


    But Deng Jing didn''t want to go north, and said, "master, can you send someone else?"


    Deng Xi stares at Deng Jing coldly, light says: "how, my words don''t work?"


    "No, no, I''ll go!"


    Deng Jing is afraid of Zhang Xiu, but he is also afraid of Deng Xi.


    Seeing that dengxi was angry, dengjing didn''t dare to say more. He bowed to dengxi and left the hall. Go back to your yard, quickly clean up, and take a carriage out of the city to the north.


    Less than ten miles north, Deng Jing meets Zhang Xiu''s army.


    He hastened forward to show his intention to meet Zhang Xiu.


    After the soldiers reported, Deng Jing came to Zhang Xiu with an uneasy mind. He bowed slightly and said, "I''ve met general Deng Jing in Xinye!"


    Zhang Xiu straddles on the horse, glances over Deng Jing and asks, "what''s the matter?"


    Deng Jing''s attitude was very low, and he replied: "report back to General Zhang. Deng Jing came here to seek peace from general Zhang. The Deng family made a mistake first. I sincerely ask general Zhang to raise his hand. Whether it''s about Deng Chen or Deng''s business firm, the Deng family is wrong. The Deng family has made a big mistake and is willing to pay for it. "


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "it''s late!"


    Brush!


    Deng Jing''s face changed slightly.


    The Deng family has begged for mercy from Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu didn''t accept it.


    Deng Jing bowed himself again and said, "General Zhang, please raise your hand and walk around the Deng family."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the Deng family provoked first. If Xie Yu was not captured, would you take the initiative to beg for mercy? Hum, if you want to ask for a crime, you can ask for a peace. There''s no such reason. "


    "Go away!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "let this will not be happy, first break your leg, and then let you go back."


    "I''ll go, I''ll go!"


    When Deng Jing heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was startled and flew away.


    When they saw this, they all burst into laughter.

 Chapter 51

    The reason why Zhang Xiu didn''t agree to the Deng family''s plea for mercy was not only related to her own face, but also her desire to kill the tiger and the monkey. In the eyes of such aristocratic families as the Deng family, Liu PI and Gong Du are not on the table.


    Although Gong Du and Liu PI were occupying Runan, they were extremely arrogant. If you really want to annoy the aristocratic families, it''s easy for these aristocratic families to work hard to wipe out Gong Du and Liu PI.


    The killing of Liu PI and Gong Du by Zhang Xiu could not deter these big families.


    In order to make the big families in Nanyang County, or in the north of Yuyang County, bow down and obey, one must be brought out to build a power.


    The Deng family is typical.


    In Nanyang County, the Deng family is the strongest.


    Zhang Xiu''s capture of the Deng family is to kill the tiger and frighten the monkey, and frighten the big families in Nanyang County.


    So even if the Deng family begged for mercy, Zhang Xiu would not stop.


    Deng Jing left, and Zhang Xiu led his troops to the south.


    Zhang Xiu''s journey is leisurely and leisurely, and her attitude is very relaxed. Deng Jing is not the same, he was rejected by Zhang Xiu, heart nervous, thinking about how to go back to Deng Xi.


    When he came here, Deng Xi said that only success is allowed, not failure.


    But he failed.


    He wanted to persuade Zhang Xiu, but there was no chance at all.


    Deng Jing rushed all the way back to Deng''s house, went straight to his study, bowed to Deng Xi, and said, "master, Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept our request for peace from Deng''s family, and insists on going to the door to ask for a crime!"


    Deng Xinu yelled: "waste!"


    Deng Jing a pair of unjust look, explained: "the master, not my incompetence, is Zhang Xiu too inhuman."


    "I can''t speak in front of Zhang Xiu."


    "Just imagine, I don''t even have a chance to speak. How can I succeed?"


    "Zhang Xiu said directly that if Xie Yu had not been captured, our Deng family would not have taken the initiative to seek peace. What he meant was that the Deng family was not sincere in seeking peace. "


    Deng Jing also said: "Zhang Xiu also said that if the Deng family wanted to ask for a crime, they would ask for a peace. It is impossible for the Deng family to ask for a peace. Therefore, Zhang Xiu is determined to come and ask for justice. "


    "Rampant!"


    Deng Xi slapped on the desk with fierce eyes.


    He has been in charge of the Deng family for decades, from the governor to the prefect and the head of the pavilion. Unexpectedly, I met a Zhang Xiu who didn''t know the current affairs.


    Deng Jing slightly bow body, uneasy asked: "master, how do we do?"


    Deng Xi''s face was ferocious and said: "what else can we do? If Zhang Xiu wants to fight, the Deng family can only accompany her to the end. However, it is the best way to go to war. You immediately go to the county government to meet with the magistrate of Xinye, Cai you, and ask him to mediate after Zhang Xiu''s arrival. "


    "Here it is


    Deng Jing answered and turned to leave.


    In Deng Jing''s opinion, it doesn''t make sense. But now the situation is difficult, only dead horse as a live horse doctor, even if it is useless, also want to try.


    Deng Jing came back soon. Seeing Deng Xi again, he replied, "master, the magistrate of Xinye has agreed. He said that when Zhang Xiu arrived outside Deng''s house, he would mediate for us. "


    "Good, good!"


    Deng Xi even said two good words, and was immediately relieved.


    Deng Xi also issued an order to gather the Deng family''s private soldiers and let them all wait and be ready to attack at any time.


    Time goes by.


    Zhang Xiu is getting closer and closer to the county. In the evening, Zhang Xiu''s 8000 elite soldiers arrived outside the city. Soldiers stationed at the gate of the city, to see the mighty lineup, dare not stop, can only let Zhang Xiu into.


    Moreover, Zhang Xiu''s visit to Deng''s home to ask for a crime has already spread in Xinye county. Everyone knows that Zhang Xiu is here for the Deng family, not to attack Xinye, so no one does not open his eyes to stop Zhang Xiu.


    The team entered the city and soon came to Deng''s home.


    The soldiers on the street outside the dense house of Deng ma. Six thousand soldiers under Xie Yu''s command surrounded the Deng family under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhang Xiu''s two thousand clans were arrayed outside the main gate, murderous.


    "Creak!"


    When the door opened, Deng Xi led his family to the gate.


    All of us look dignified.


    Zhang Xiu galloped her horse and stood up, squinting at the Deng family and shouting, "who is Deng Xi?"


    Deng Xi shook his robe, walked forward two steps, arched his hand and said, "I''ve met General Zhang. I don''t know what general Zhang wants to do when he comes to Deng''s house? "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and replied: "Ben''s intention of the future Deng family has been clearly stated for a long time. Dengxi, in front of so many people, it''s meaningless to pretend to be stupid. "


    Deng Xi is accused by Zhang Xiu, and his face is dull.


    But now, he has to bear it.


    For the sake of the Deng family, he has to fight to defuse the current fight.


    Deng Xi said: "General Zhang, Deng Chen is wrong, and Deng''s business is also wrong. Please forgive the Deng family for offending General Zhang. General Zhang, please make an offer. My Deng family is willing to apologize. ""Seriously?"


    Zhang Xiu has a faint smile in her mouth.


    Deng Xi said: "of course, it''s true. General Zhang, please make an offer."


    For duncy, it''s worth it if money can solve the immediate problems. As long as the Deng family is still there, it is still the Deng family.


    This is duncy''s consideration.


    Zhang Xiu raised her lips, raised a smile, and said: "you Deng family are willing to apologize, this will not be unkind. As long as you take out 90% of the Deng family''s property, you will forget the past. "


    "No way!"


    Dengxi did not hesitate, refused directly.


    For the Deng family, to take out 20% of their property is to gouge out the heart and blood of the Deng family. Deng Xi''s tolerance limit, that is, 20% of Deng''s family property, is not enough.


    It''s the price of Deng''s family.


    It''s impossible.


    Deng Xi took a deep breath and said slowly: "General Zhang, the Deng family are willing to apologize. They are sincere. General Zhang, please give me a suitable condition. "


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "this is the only condition for this general. If the Deng family can''t be satisfied, it''s time to score. "


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s threat, Deng Xi said: "General Zhang, the Deng family has retreated. If you take an inch, Deng Jiate is not afraid. Nanyang Dengshi, will accompany to the end. "


    "Good, good one. I''ll accompany you to the end."


    Zhang Xiu gave a smile and said, "I''m afraid you don''t want to fight. If you want to fight, that''s the best."


    "County magistrate Cai is here!"


    Suddenly, a cry came from a distance.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    A carriage came fast and stopped not far away. The curtain of the carriage door was lifted, and a thin middle-aged man of letters, dressed in a long black shirt, wearing a Jinxian crown and a sword hanging from his waist, stepped out of the carriage.


    His name is Cai you, the magistrate of Xinye county.


    With a faint smile on his face, he came to Zhang Xiu, arched his hand and said, "Cai you, magistrate of Xinye County, has met General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what can I do for you, magistrate Cai?"


    Cai you didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "General Zhang, the Deng family is a famous family in Xinye. If something happens to the Deng family, there will be unrest in Xinye. Can you give me a chance to sit down with the Deng family and have a talk? "


    Zhang Xiu asked: "your surname is Cai, who came from the Cai family in Xiangyang?"


    "Yes


    Cai you answered directly.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "not long ago, Cai Mao was captured by the general and became a prisoner. Because of this, the Cai family paid 100000 Jin of food, 1000 swords, 500 sets of armor and 100 craftsmen. Cai you, are you sure you want to get involved? "


    There is a threat in the words.


    When Cai you heard the speech, his eyes were solemn.


    He knows about CAI Mao. Cai Mao was captured by Zhang Xiu, not only lost Cai Mao''s face, but also let the family bear a great loss.


    After thinking about it, Cai you asked, "I have heard about the conflict between general Zhang and the Deng family. I don''t know general Zhang, what kind of price does the Deng family need to pay before they are willing to withdraw? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s very simple. Let the Deng family hand over 90% of their property."


    Cai you said, "is there no room for negotiation?"


    "No!"


    "As long as the Deng family doesn''t agree, there will be a war," Zhang Xiu said


    Cai you looked at Deng Xi and asked, "master Deng, what''s your opinion?"


    Deng Xi gritted his teeth and said, "I, a famous family in Nanyang, can''t accept Zhang Xiu''s conditions. As soon as you open your mouth, you''ll get 90% of Deng''s family business. It''s impossible. "


    Cai you sighed: "you have different opinions and are not willing to give in. It''s useless for me to mediate. Master Deng, you should do it yourself. "


    With that, Cai you said, "General Zhang, goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu looks at Cai you and smiles. The magistrate of Xinye county is a smart man.

 Chapter 52

    Zhang Xiu did not want to talk nonsense with Deng Xi any more. She said, "I will count to three. If the Deng family continues to resist, I will order a strong attack."


    "How dare you?"


    Deng Xi couldn''t help but drink.


    Deng Xi felt that what he said just now was too tough, so he relaxed and said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t overdo everything. Be a good person and meet each other in the future. If you do nothing, you will have no way out. "


    "One!"


    Zhang Xiu spoke directly.


    He had a firm look and did not speak to duncy.


    Dengxi looks angry. He is not willing to hand over his property so easily, and asking the Dengs to take out 90% of his property is equivalent to killing the Dengs. It''s better to kill him.


    No matter how Zhang Xixiu retreats, he hopes to make some of them.


    "Two!"


    But Zhang Xiu spoke again.


    When Deng Xi heard the cry "two", he knew that there was no room for things to turn around. He gritted his teeth and said, "back, back to the house!"


    With that, dengxi directly turned back to the house.


    Deng Jing, Deng can and other legitimate families also returned to the mansion one after another.


    "Bang Dang!"


    The door of the Deng family is closed.


    But Zhang Xiu laughed.


    From the bottom of his heart, he didn''t want Deng Xi to surrender, but he wanted the Deng family to resist. Only when the Deng family resisted, he could attack the Deng family, get rid of the Deng family in Nanyang, and set up his dignity.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and said, "Xing Ba, I will give you half an hour to take down the Deng family. Are you sure?"


    "Guarantee to finish the task!"


    Gan Ning''s face was confident and determined to answer.


    To Gan Ning, it''s a familiar thing to beat up a family and rob a house. When he led 800 jinfanerlang to occupy Nanyang County, he would go to the autumn wind when he heard that there were rich and heartless gentry.


    Even if the walls of these big families were built high and the private soldiers were kept, they could not stop his attack.


    Ganning quickly mobilized the army.


    He called in 50 soldiers and said, "you attack the front door of the Deng family and attract the attention of the private soldiers of the Deng family. Do you understand?"


    "I understand!"


    The leading captain should come down.


    After Ganning ordered the attack, he sent another 50 soldiers, bypassed the main gate and came to a remote place outside the wall of Deng''s courtyard, with people ready to cross the wall to enter.


    The wall of Deng''s courtyard is just over ten meters high.


    This height can''t stop Gan Ning, he takes people to enter easily.


    After landing, Ganning took people to the gate. They ran less than 100 steps, and were found by Deng''s private soldiers. Deng''s private soldiers yelled one after another, summoning people to resist Gan Ning.


    However, Ganning''s martial arts were so powerful that the Deng family''s private soldiers were killed one after another.


    "Dog thief, Deng Hu is here, take life."


    A middle-aged man with a big body and strong physique came to kill him with a sword. He was a collateral of the Deng family, but he was born with divine power and excellent martial arts, so he worked in the Deng family and was a tiger General of the Deng family''s private soldiers.


    In a flash, he came to Gan Ning.


    "Chop!"


    Deng Hu drank and slashed.


    Gan Ning didn''t hide. He held the sword tightly in his hands and welcomed it.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of the impact was heard and the sparks were splashing.


    "Ah


    Then, a painful voice came from Deng Hu''s mouth.


    He and Gan Ning a fight, he is full of confidence, but did not expect that after the blade impact, the great force washed from, he held the sword hand tiger mouth crack, palm numb, the sword directly flew out.


    The whole person, also rubbed back.


    Gan Ning took the advantage of this move and made a big stride forward. As he approached Deng Hu, he cut the blade with a cool blade, which was as fast as lightning.


    There was no time for Deng Hu to step back. There was a flash of light in front of him, and a sharp pain came from his neck.


    "Poof!"


    Blood gushed from the neck.


    At this moment, Deng Hu''s pain intensified, and he fell back on the ground.


    "No, Deng Hu was killed."


    The Deng family''s private soldiers cried out in great panic.


    The Deng family''s private soldiers, after all, have never been to the battlefield. They are not trained. Their martial arts skills are sparse and common, and their courage is not enough. Seeing that Gan Ning killed Deng Hu, they were scared to retreat one after another.


    Gan Ning continued to push forward, and soon led his troops to the gate. He led the troops to repel the Deng private soldiers stationed at the gate, opened the gate, and cooperated with the soldiers attacking outside.


    Since then, the Deng family has gone.


    Everyone of Deng family, back to the hall.


    Deng Xi''s face was full of uneasiness and fear. He thought that the Deng family could defend at least for a while with the help of high walls. But now, with the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army, Deng''s private soldiers were defeated. He overestimated Deng''s strength.


    Duncy''s eyes fell outside the hall.Surrounded by soldiers, Zhang Xiu has entered the courtyard and stood outside the hall.


    One by one, the officers and soldiers are pouring in quickly.


    The Deng family''s private soldiers could not resist, and some began to surrender.


    Deng Xi was eager in his heart and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, my Deng family agreed to your terms. 90% of the property of the Deng family. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu refused directly.


    Previously, he had given the Deng family the chance to surrender, but dengxi thought he was a lion. Now, duncy wants to surrender again, but he has missed the chance.


    Since the use of force, Zhang Xiu will no longer accept the request for surrender.


    Zhang Xiu''s refusal made Deng Xi crazy. He said in a loud voice: "break through, let''s go out."


    Staying in the Deng family is a dead end.


    Only by breaking through the encirclement can we survive. But Deng Xi and Deng''s family were surrounded by Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, and there was no chance to break through. Under the strong attack of the officers and soldiers, Deng''s private soldiers surrendered, and those who died in battle were no longer under threat.


    In just two quarters of an hour, Deng Xi and his family were all arrested.


    In the hall, Zhang Xiu took a seat.


    Ganning counted the losses and settled the prisoners. After entering, he said: "Lord, the Deng family headed by Deng Xi has all been controlled. Deng''s collateral and servants were also held in solitary custody. Now, what should we do with these people? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "the Deng family, led by Deng Xi and Deng Jing, will be killed. The rest of the Deng family''s collateral, as well as the Deng family''s servants, were given a certain amount of money and dismissed. "


    Gan Ning frowned and said, "general, if you kill Deng''s family, you will have a death feud with them. You may not be grateful to the Deng family. If you don''t kill everything, you''ll have endless troubles. In my opinion, it''s better to kill them so as to avoid future trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and confidently said, "there''s no need for this. It''s just like Pang Xi of Deng family. Why am I afraid of it? In addition, we came to Xinye county to ask a question at Deng''s house, not to kill more people. Killing the chief villain is enough to frighten people with ulterior motives. Of course, if the collateral of the Deng family wants to take revenge, I will take it from Zhang Xiu. If they dare to come, I will kill them again. "


    Strong self-confidence emerged from Zhang Xiu''s face.


    He believes in his own strength.


    As long as he gets stronger and stronger, he will not be afraid of anyone''s revenge. Of course, if he is down, even if there are no Deng family members, I''m afraid there will be other enemies to retaliate.


    So it''s meaningless to kill all the people in the Deng family.


    Deng Xi was detained in the hall. Hearing that he was going to be killed, he tried his best to roar: "Zhang Xiu, you villain. You will be punished one day for killing innocent people indiscriminately. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "even if I have to suffer retribution, I am not afraid of Zhang Xiu. As for you, duncy, are your hands clean? Is the Deng family clean? The Deng family drove up prices and hoarded grain, killing many people. You deserve it


    Dengxi yelled, but it didn''t help.


    Zhang Xiu waves her hand, and Gan Ning escorts Deng Xi and Deng Jing, as well as Deng''s family members, to kill them.


    None of Deng''s family is left.


    After Deng Xi and others were executed, Zhang Xiu released Deng''s collateral, servants and maidservants, and searched out all the food and money of the Deng family.


    In Xinye County, the Deng family has more than 100 houses, large and small. In Yuyang County, Wancheng, and even other places in Xiangyang, there are many houses and shops.


    The Deng family is rich.


    As for the money found, it was even more incalculable. It contained 300 large boxes.


    There are nearly 30000 stones of grain in the Deng family''s hoard, as well as many grains. All the grain was packed in sacks and moved out of the house bag by bag and put on the carriage.


    It took one night to empty the Deng family.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "departure, return to Yuyang County!"


    Escorting the grain and money, the team left Xinye and went to Yuyang county.


    Xie Yu was still in custody. At noon, when the army was resting, he came to Zhang Xiu with a stick and said, "General Zhang, the Deng family has been destroyed. You see, can you let me go? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "not for the time being!"


    Xie Yu said hastily, "why?"


    He has no value. It''s time for Zhang Xiu to release him. Thinking that if he was escorted to Yuyang County by Zhang Xiu, he shuddered and said: "General Zhang, I won''t offend you any more. Let me go."


    Zhang Xiu said: "my army, escorting countless grains, has no time to fight. So, it has to be protected by your army. If you were released ahead of time, there would be an army attack, and we would not be able to resist it. "


    Today, Xie Yu is Zhang Xiu''s talisman.


    Xie Yu in hand, even if there are pursuers, Zhang Xiu can also stabilize the situation. To release Xie Yu, at least Zhang Xiu has to enter the territory of Yuyang county to release people.

 Chapter 53

    Xiangyang, lumen mountain.


    Halfway up the hill, the pavilion.


    Pang Degong and Sima Hui are sitting opposite each other, playing chess.


    There is not much difference in their level of chess skills, and they know each other''s style and skills very well. Therefore, when two players play chess, they usually start fast and then slow down in the middle and later stages.


    Looking at the chessboard, Pang Degong twisted his beard under his jaw with his left hand, picked up a black spot with his right hand, and fell down quickly. He said faintly, "my dear brother, I''m leaving lumen mountain tomorrow to go to Yuyang county. During this period of time, you will take care of the affairs in lumen mountain for me. "


    Sima Hui also responded quickly, saying: "Yuyang county is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Xiu. What do you do in Yuyang county?"


    "Yuyang county is not very peaceful now."


    "Before that, in order to revenge Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao sent out news to lure Liu PI and Gong du to enter. I don''t know. After Liu PI and Gong entered Yuyang County, did Zhang Xiu stop them? "


    "Our Liu Jingzhou has a narrower heart than a needle and a smaller mind than a woman. He lost his face in front of Zhang Xiu, and he did the ridiculous act of entering the country by the yellow scarf thief, which is disappointing. "


    Sima Hui shook his head gently.


    He also looked down upon Liu Biao.


    With a slight smile, pound continued: "hatred often makes people desperate, even desperate."


    "Liu Biao, that''s it!"


    "Liu Biao is not enterprising enough, but he is more than guarding the city. He worked as a state herdsman in Jingzhou, which saved Jingzhou from war. But now it seems that Liu Biao is headstrong and will eventually eat the bad consequences. "


    After analyzing one, Pang Degong continued: "in fact, Liu Bihe Kung Fu has entered the territory of Yuyang County, and both Liu Bihe and Gong Du have died in the hands of Zhang Xiu."


    Sima Hui was surprised and said, "did Zhang Xiu win?"


    "Yes


    Pound said justly: "this matter has been sent back by the people of Pang family in the north. Zhang Xiu not only killed Liu PI and Gong Du, but also annexed their deployment, which shocked Nanyang County. "


    Sima Hui said: "this time, Liu Biao is helping again."


    When pound heard the speech, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "helping others is a good word. Liu Biao''s original intention is to deal with Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, he helped Zhang Xiu to expand her strength again. "


    "What have you done?" Ma said? Are you going to see Zhang Xiu? "


    Pound Fair: "is really to see Zhang Xiu."


    Sima Hui looked surprised and asked, "Pang Gong, are you going to be an official?"


    Mr. pound shook his head and replied, "I''m too old to be an official again. My ambition is no longer in officialdom. But this time, it''s about the Pang family. I have to go. "


    "Although I live in seclusion in lumen mountain, I can''t ignore the Pang family''s affairs."


    "I can''t help it. I''m obsessed with worldly affairs."


    Pang Degong explained: "when Zhang Xiu went north, Huang Yueying, the little girl, went north with her."


    "In Yuyang County, Zhang Xiu designed a new type of plow, named Quyuan plow. Through Huang Yueying, he sent the samples back to Huang''s home and handed them to Huang Chengyan. "


    "Zhang Xiu said that Qu Yuanli''s business had to be operated jointly by the Huang family and Pang family."


    "For the sake of Qu Yuanli, I have to go."


    There was a light in Pang Degong''s eyes. He couldn''t understand why Zhang Xiu took Pang''s family with her and was willing to give them such great benefits.


    Sima Hui frowned and said, "it''s just a plow. It''s worth your going in person?"


    "It''s worth it!"


    Pang Degong''s eyes were sharp and he said: "the curved yuan plow invented by Zhang Xiu makes up for the shortcomings of the straight yuan plow and makes farming more convenient. I decided that quyuanli would be popular all over the world. If the Pang family can do this with the Huang family, they will surely have a good harvest. "


    Sima Hui said, "is it so good?"


    Pang Degong said with a smile: "at the invitation of Huang Chengyan, I went to see Huang''s house in person. Qu Yuanli is really easy to use. When I come back from Yuyang County, let you have a look. At that time, you can also see Qu Yuanli''s good


    "I''ll see!"


    In Sima Hui''s heart, he still didn''t believe it. It''s just that pound is very serious. He is a little curious.


    ¡­¡­


    Huang family, study.


    Huang Chengyan is staring at Qu Yuanli and studying carefully.


    In his eyes, the lines of Qu Yuan Li are smooth, the radian is appropriate, and it is full of aesthetic feeling.


    I feel comfortable in any way.


    The only thing he didn''t understand was that Zhang Xiu could make such a wonderful Quyuan plow. After Huang Chengyan got the sample of Qu Yuanli, he also had the idea of greed in his heart and wanted to take Qu Yuanli as his own.


    With the strength of Huang family, it can be made directly.


    After all, the Huang family has the strength.


    However, Huang Chengyan, after all, is a famous scholar of Jingxiang, and he can''t do anything to take advantage of others.


    Just think about it.Although Zhang Xiu has a foothold in Yuyang County, Huang Chengyan still thinks that Zhang Xiu is too sharp to be exposed. Just after winning Gong Du and Liu PI, they declared war with the Deng family in Nanyang.


    However, the strength of all aristocratic families is intertwined.


    Zhang Xiu on the Deng family, do not know what the final result will be. But he decided that he would not change his itinerary if he went north early tomorrow morning, so even if Zhang Xiu and the Deng family went up, he and pound would go north.


    Huang Chengyan heart, there is a doubt.


    Yueying, the dead girl, how can she get in touch with Zhang Xiu? When he went north to Yuyang County, he wanted to ask Huang Yueying.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the study.


    "Come in!"


    Huang Chengyan orders.


    The door creaked and the housekeeper stepped in. The housekeeper went to Huang Chengyan''s side, took out a bamboo slip, put it on Huang Chengyan''s desk, and said, "master, this is the latest news from Yuyang county."


    "I see!"


    Huang Chengyan waved his hand.


    The housekeeper stepped down. Huang Chengyan picked up the bamboo slips and spread them out.


    When Huang Chengyan saw the bamboo slips about the result of Zhang Xiu''s crusade against the Deng family, he opened his eyes and showed an unbelievable look on his elegant face. Zhang Xiu really destroyed the Deng family with her own strength!


    Nanyang Deng family, disappeared!


    "Hiss!"


    Huang Chengyan took a cold breath and was very surprised.


    Although there is a big gap between the Deng family and the Huang family, Pang family and Cai family in Xiangyang, their strength is not weak. Even if Zhang Xiu is powerful, the Deng family will not be so easily defeated.


    When Huang Chengyan saw the whole story, he shook his head.


    Xie Yu, the general of Nanyang garrison, became Zhang Xiu''s hostage and was taken to Xinye by Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu destroyed the Deng family, Xie Yu didn''t help Zhang Xiu, and was not willing to help Zhang Xiu, but actually helped Zhang Xiu a lot.


    Without Xie Yu, Zhang Xiu couldn''t control Xie Yu''s 6000 elite soldiers. With only two thousand soldiers, Zhang Xiu couldn''t even get into the county seat of Xinye County, let alone the Deng family.


    Thanks to Xie Yu and 6000 soldiers, the magistrate of Xinye county did not dare to stop her, so Zhang Xiu easily entered Xinye county.


    Then, he killed the Deng family easily.


    "Yes, life!"


    Huang Chengyan sighed and shook his head.


    ¡­¡­


    The prefecture.


    Kuai Yue entered in a hurry with a serious look. As he walked quickly, he thought about how to tell Liu Biao that the Deng family had been destroyed. Just now, Kuai Yue got the news that Zhang Xiu led his troops into Xinye and killed Deng''s family.


    Earlier, the news of Zhang Xiu''s killing Gong Du and Liu PI came back. Liu Biao was so angry that he even threw several vases. He even angered his servants and severely punished several people.


    Liu Biao is devoted to beating Zhang Xiu, but the final result is that Zhang Xiu takes advantage of the opportunity to build power.


    This is what Liu Biao does not want to see.


    All of them are afraid to make Liu Biao unhappy and be punished.


    Soon after, Zhang Xiu and Deng family make a conflict, Zhang Xiu put cruel words, to lead soldiers to Xinye county door to ask a crime.


    When the news came back, Liu Biao was happy.


    Liu Biao concludes that it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to win the Deng family, and looks forward to Zhang Xiu''s embarrassment.


    But this time, Zhang Xiu won again.


    When Kuai Yue thought that Liu Biao would be angry again, he felt a headache. At this time, he admired his elder brother Kuai Liang, because the earlier Kuai became acquainted with Zhang Xiu, he retired.


    After Kuai Liang retired, Kuai Yue was put in an important position. He was responsible for many affairs of the prefecture.


    Kuai Yue enters the study and bows to Liu Biao.


    Liu Biao, looking forward to it, inquired: "strange degree, is there any news from Nanyang Xinye? Zhang Xiu takes the soldiers to Xinye. Is she stopped by Xie Yu? Did you lose face? "


    Kuai Yue replied, "Lord, Deng''s family has been destroyed."


    "Ah


    When Liu Biao heard the speech, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    With a look of disbelief, he stood up and said, "there is a garrison general Xie Yu at the Xinye border. He is responsible for protecting the safety of Xinye. Even if the old man of Zhang Xiu doesn''t have an order to enter, it''s impossible for him to do so? "


    "Even if Xie Yu let go, but Xinye city is tall and strong, how can Zhang Xiu get in?"


    "Step back, even if Zhang Xiu enters Xinye city. As a famous family in Nanyang County, the Deng family also has a private soldier''s tribe. Their strength is not weak. How could they be exterminated all of a sudden? "


    Liu Biao repeatedly asked questions and said eagerly, "are you sure you got the right information?"


    Kuai Yue took out the letter he had just sent back, handed it to Liu Biao and said, "Lord, this is the details of Zhang Xiu''s going south."


    Liu Biao opens it for quick reading.


    When Liu Biao finished reading it, he was so angry that he tore up the letter in his hand and scolded: "waste! Asshole! Xie Yu is a dog. He can''t accomplish anything, but he can defeat anything. He went to resist Zhang Xiu, but he became Zhang Xiu''s hostage. What a foolLiu Biao''s heart is full of anger.


    However, he was helpless because Zhang Xiu won again.


    He had no choice but to take a piece of embroidery.

 Chapter 54

    In the hands of Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao has hit the wall three times in succession.


    For the first time, Zhang Xiu escorted Cai Mao South to Xiangyang. In order to give Zhang Xiu a chance, Liu Biao asked wenpin to meet her. The original intention is to show strength, but wenpin was captured by Zhang Xiu.


    The second time, at the meeting of Zhou Mu Fu, Liu Biao used Yi Ji and Li Heng to make Zhang Xiu lose face. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu''s literary talent makes you and Yi Ji lose face. Instead, Zhang Xiu is famous for it.


    For the third time, Zhang Xiu went north to Yuyang county. Liu Biao withdrew the garrison at the Jingzhou border and allowed Gong Du and Liu pi to enter Nanyang County to attack Zhang Xiu with the help of yellow scarf thieves. But in the end, Gong Du and Liu PI were killed. Zhang Xiu was famous in Nanyang, but Liu Biao became a laughing stock.


    They all said that there were no more than three things, but Liu Biao dealt with Zhang Xiu three times, and every time he was flat.


    Every time, Zhang Xiu can get benefits.


    In Liu Biao''s heart, Zhang Xiu wants to eat shriveled, and then asks him for help.


    But every time, it failed.


    Liu Biao looked at Kuai Yue and said, "in less than a month, Zhang Xiu''s strength has expanded sharply. He recruited Gan Ning, a Jinfan thief, and captured Gong Du and Liu Pi''s yellow scarf thieves. I''m afraid they are all close to 10000. "


    "In addition, Zhang Xiu also has the grain and equipment presented by her official. She is not short of grain and elite. She is very powerful."


    "We can no longer allow Zhang Xiu to expand. Let Zhang Xiu develop, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu is not a barrier to the north of Jingzhou, but a threat to the security of Jingzhou. "


    Liu Biao a dignified look, asked: "do you have a plan to contain Zhang Xiu?"


    Kuai Yue sighed.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is becoming Liu Biao''s demon. If Zhang Xiu is not stopped completely, Liu Biao will not be at ease.


    Kuai Yue pondered for a while and said slowly: "Lord, Zhang Xiu has the advantage of favorable time, location and harmony in Yuyang county. It is almost impossible to deal with Zhang Xiu or to contain her."


    "Zhang Xiu lives in Nanyang County. Under normal circumstances, it''s very simple for the Lord to curb Zhang Xiu. He only needs to control the supply of grain, which is enough to limit Zhang Xiu''s strength."


    "But before that, Zhang Xiu got the food given by the Lord and destroyed the Deng family in Nanyang. At least in this year and the first half of next year, Zhang Xiu will not lack food."


    "In particular, after Zhang Xiu took control of Yuyang County, he opened mountains and tuntian and built ditches. Next year, there will be enough farming in Yuyang county and Zhang Xiu will be able to be self-sufficient without the Lord''s food supply."


    Kuai Yue said: "it''s too difficult to contain Zhang Xiu!"


    "Alas..."


    When Liu Biao heard the speech, he couldn''t help sighing.


    Can''t you really control Zhang Xiu?


    After thinking about it, Liu Biao said, "in the past, when your brother was here, he had a plan to solve any difficulties. Your talent is no less than that of your elder brother. Is it just Zhang Xiu that will embarrass you? "


    Kuai Yue''s face turned pale.


    Liu Biao''s words are disappointing and chilling.


    In front of him, he used a bad method of provocation, with the intention of making him give advice, and also to provoke the relationship between him and his elder brother.


    It''s so boring!


    Kuai Yue was slightly cold in his heart and said, "Lord, do you really want to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    Liu Biao said: "must!"


    Kuai Yue turned his eyes and said, "there is a way to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Biao leaned forward slightly, looking excited, and asked, "how can I get rid of this strange plan?"


    There is a man named Kuai Buhuan under the command of Wei. This man is rebellious and ambitious. It''s just that Wei Yan and his colleagues don''t get along well, and no one helps him. "


    "The Lord can summon Wei Yan and let him go to Wan county to stop Zhang Xiu from taking control of the area north of Yuyang county."


    "The LORD promised Wei Yan that as long as he could stand in Wan county and stop Zhang Xiu, he would appoint him as the prefect of Nanyang County. The official position of the prefect is enough to make Wei Yan moved. "


    Kuai Yue said: "especially Wei Yan has ambition. Even if he is in trouble with Zhang Xiu, he will go."


    After hearing this, Liu Biao brightened his eyes and said, "wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! I also know that Wei Yan is very rebellious, just like a fierce tiger, while Zhang Xiu is a wolf. It''s a good strategy to drive away the tiger and swallow the wolf. "


    Kuai Yue looks at the excited Liu Biao, but he shakes his head secretly.


    Wei Yan may not be able to stop Zhang Xiu.


    Maybe after Wei Yan went to Wan County, he would help Zhang Xiu indirectly and let her strength strengthen again.


    But Kuai Yue can''t say that.


    Kuai Yue was not willing to deal with Wei Yan''s going to the north. He said, "Lord, there are still many official affairs to deal with in the hands of humble officials, so I will leave first."


    "Go


    Liu Biao waved his hand with a smile.


    After Kuai Yue left, Liu Biao immediately ordered Wei Yan to come to see him.


    In Liu Biao''s army, Wei Yan has not been released. He is now a school captain, in charge of an army. However, Wei Yan was rebellious and quite arrogant, so he had a bad relationship with the generals in the army.


    Everyone he looked at was so uncomfortable that he was isolated in the army.But Wei Yan''s subordinates are obedient to Wei Yan and are very convinced of him.


    Wei Yan is only 25 years old now.


    He is more than eight feet long. He is powerful and strong. He has a beard on his lips and a short beard under his jaw. He is bold and brave. But his eyes are slightly narrow and aggressive, which makes people feel rebellious and rampant


    in the army, Wei Yan has always been a grandmother who doesn''t love her uncle. When he heard the news that Liu Biao summoned him, he was a little surprised.


    However, he came as fast as he could. Entering the mansion, under the guidance of the attendant, Wei Yan came to the study and saw Liu Biao, a famous scholar in a broad collar shirt.


    Wei Yan Baoquan way: "at the end of Wei Yan, meet the governor."


    He called Liu Biao Zhou mu, not Lord.


    From the bottom of his heart, Wei Yan didn''t recognize Liu Biao as the main one, because he thought Liu Biao was too cowardly and not a wise master.


    Wei Yan is in Jingzhou. He''s just eating.


    Liu Biao didn''t think there was anything wrong with the title. He nodded slightly and said with a smile, "I heard that you Wei Yan were in the army and had a bad relationship with your colleagues. Were you pushed out by them?"


    Wei Yan, with an air of self-confidence, replied, "please tell me, there is no such thing. It''s absurd to say that you are isolated and unsociable at the end of the day, and that you have a common relationship with your colleagues. "


    In fact, it''s not crowding out.


    It is Wei Yan who doesn''t like the people in the army. He thinks that the generals in the army are all alcoholic and only know how to eat, drink, whore and gamble.


    He doesn''t like such a person.


    Therefore, Wei Yan disdains to make friends and has a bad relationship with a group of people.


    Liu Biao chuckled. He didn''t say much. He went straight to the main topic and said, "I have a very important task to ask you to do."


    Wei Yan said: "please make it clear."


    Liu Biao said: "Wan County, Nanyang County, is not under the control of the official. But wan county is also a very important part of Jingzhou. In order not to let Wan County out of control, I hope you can lead the troops to Wan County, so that Wan county will not fall into the control of others. In particular, it can not fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu. Can you do it? "


    Wei Yan''s eyes turned. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "my Lord, Wan county is in the north of Yuyang county. I''m afraid it''s not easy to have a foothold in the north of Zhang Xiu. "


    Liu Biao said: "as long as you can get a foothold in Wan county and block Zhang Xiu from going north, I will let you be the prefect of Nanyang County. Now, I want you to go north as the magistrate of Wan county. How dare you take over? "


    "Why not?"


    Wei Yan did not hesitate, directly said: "the end will be willing to go north, to ensure the completion of the task."


    Wei Yan is willing to leave Xiangyang and go to Wan county. Wei Yan is not a fool. He knows that Liu Biao wants him to go to Wan county to clamp down on Zhang Xiu, but he doesn''t care about these.


    It''s enough to be promoted, to fight and to show your talents!


    He doesn''t care about the rest.


    Liu Biao said no more. He waved his hand and said, "I believe in your ability. Go and prepare. Today, I will send the corresponding orders and seals to you. "


    "Here it is


    Wei Yanying got up and left.


    Liu Biao raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and looked forward to it.

 Chapter 55

    Zhang Xiu escorted food, money and jade to the north. After leaving Xinye and entering the territory of Yuyang County, Xu Shu brought his soldiers to meet him. Xu Shu''s soldiers take over, Zhang Xiu releases Xie Yu and lets Xie Yu lead the soldiers to leave.


    The party went straight north.


    Back in the county, the army was stationed.


    Xu Shu received the money, land lease and grain, then counted them one by one, and then put them all into the warehouse.


    After arranging things, Xu Shu came to Zhang Xiu''s study, reported the food, money and other resettlement things, and finally said: "Lord, this time I destroyed the Deng family, I got countless food and money."


    "For quite a long time, the Lord didn''t have to worry about not enough food and money."


    "I think we should celebrate."


    "By celebrating, the soldiers can enjoy the benefits and follow the Lord to the death. Only in this way will they know that only by following the Lord can they have enough to eat and drink and get more benefits. "


    Xu Shu said: "to convince the soldiers in the army, we need not only the personal charm of the Lord, but also the binding of interests. Only by combining the two can we unite the morale of the army. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "Yuanzhi''s suggestion will not be disagreeable. In fact, after killing Liu PI and Gong Du and solving the Deng family, we have really established ourselves in Yuyang county. When you settle down, it''s time for a treat. "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if it''s a reward, it can''t be a casual reward. Otherwise, the expected effect will not be achieved. If we want to do it, we must do it well so that the soldiers can remember it. "


    Xu Shu said with a smile, "I have a suggestion."


    Zhang xiudao: "what suggestion?"


    Xu Shu said: "the Lord wants to convince the soldiers and let the soldiers recognize him. It''s nothing more than giving fame and benefits. My intention is to start from these two aspects. We will do so At that moment, Xu Shu elaborated the whole plan in detail, and made every detail clear.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu knew that Xu Shu had made up his mind.


    Otherwise, it will not be so detailed.


    After listening to all of them, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help praising: "the scheme of Yuanzhi is closely linked, and it''s really wonderful."


    Xu Shu said, "my Lord, I praise you falsely."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "according to your plan, start to arrange immediately, must want grandly some grandly some."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu should go down, turn round to arrange.


    Today''s Xu Shu is not as busy as before. After all, everything is on the right track. Xu Shu only needs to grasp the main things and arrange the trivial things, so he can maintain the operation of the county government.


    It took Xu Shu three days to get everything ready.


    Yuyang County, the center of the city.


    This is an open space with a width of 100 mu, which can accommodate countless people.


    In the center stands a big stone three feet high. The stone tablet is covered with red silk. It''s hard to see what''s inside. Besides, there are soldiers stationed around it. It''s hard for people to get close to it.


    On this day, at noon.


    The county government released a message that on June 18, that is, at midnight tomorrow morning, general Zhang Xiu led all the soldiers to gather in the center of the city, where the stone tablet was located.


    People who are willing to go can go voluntarily.


    Obviously, something big happened.


    The news spread in Yuyang county. When the people knew it, they heard the news and talked about what happened. For the people of Yuyang County, this is a rare opportunity to gossip.


    One by one, the fire of eight trigrams is burning.


    They didn''t know what was going on, so all the gossip stories were reported in the name of seven aunts and eight aunts. They said that they had got accurate information from so and so, and that Zhang Xiu''s intention was to gather the soldiers.


    It was said that Zhang Xiu would take another oath to fight against Wan County, so she took an oath to fight in the city.


    Others say that Zhang Xiu is going to kill people to sacrifice the flag.


    Some even said that Zhang Xiu wanted to recruit soldiers.


    All kinds of news are not the same.


    When all kinds of news kept fermenting, a carriage came from the South and entered Yuyang county from the south gate.


    In the carriage sat Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong.


    With a smile on his face, Pang Degong lifted the curtain to appreciate the scene in Yuyang county. He said: "my dear brother, when we get to the county, shall we go straight to the County Yamen to find Zhang Xiu, or shall we go to Huang''s house and meet Yueying first?"


    "Go back to Huang''s house first."


    Huang Chengyan answered directly, he at the moment, wish to see Huang Yueying immediately, and then severely criticized Huang Yueying.


    Pound is fair: "listen to you!"


    With that, pound did not speak, but looked at Yuyang county. As the owner of the Pang family, Pang Degong had his own channel to know the situation of Yuyang county.


    But in front of Yuyang County, people come and go, very lively.


    There is no sign of the old depression.


    Seeing this, Pang Degong''s heart is filled with emotion. Although Zhang Xiu is a military general, she has the skill and ability. In a short period of time, Yuyang county was well managed.As pound looked out, the carriage passed slowly, and he could hear the comments of the people on the side of the road. After listening to many people, he finally heard a clear message that Zhang Xiu was going to gather soldiers tomorrow.


    Although we know something, the reasons are different, and each has its own reasons.


    "Stop the car!"


    Lord pound said.


    The driver stopped by the side of the street.


    Huang Chengyan asked, "Pang Gong, what can I do for you?"


    Pound said: "well, as I passed by in the carriage, people around me talked loudly that Zhang Xiu would call the soldiers together in the center of the city tomorrow. However, each of them has his own opinion. Let''s ask, what''s the matter with Zhang Xiu calling the soldiers together? "


    Huang Chengyan said with a smile, "when I get to Huang''s house, I''ll be asked. Isn''t it more detailed?"


    Pound said: "I''m eager to know about Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is worthy of attention. "


    Huang Chengyan heard this explanation, no longer say, let the groom to inquire about some.


    Soon the groom came back.


    The groom sat on the shaft of the cart and reported: "the owner of the family, Pang Gong, and the people of Yuyang county all know that at midnight tomorrow morning, Zhang Xiu will gather the soldiers in the center of the city. And in the center of the city, there is a big stone, but it is covered with red silk. No one knows what it is. The news is limited to this. There are different opinions on the rest. There is no definite news. "


    "I see."


    Pound said: "let''s go, let''s go!"


    "Here it is


    The coachman got the order and continued to set out.


    Huang Chengyan''s eyes turned and said: "Pang Gong pays close attention to Zhang Xiu. Do you think Zhang Xiu can make things happen?"


    Pound is fair: "Zhang Xiu is not simple. When he first arrived in Jingzhou, he broke the peace of Jingzhou. Jingzhou''s backwater will not remain the same. Moreover, Zhang Xiu is both civil and military. He is very enterprising. He will change the situation in Jingzhou. "


    Huang Chengyan listened, also put in the heart.


    He didn''t care much about the situation, but he knew that Lord Pound''s eyes were burning, and his judgment was very important.


    They took a carriage and soon arrived at Huang''s house.


    At the gate, the shopkeeper of the Huang family has been waiting for a long time. Seeing Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong come down, he immediately comes forward to greet them and leads them into the hall to take their seats.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Huang Chengyan looked at the shopkeeper and said, "inform Yueying that girl and let her come."


    "Here it is


    The shopkeeper has to order, go to inform immediately.


    After a while, Huang Yueying, wearing a pink dress, strode into the hall. With a smile on her face, she bowed to Huang Chengyan and pound, and said with a smile, "Dad, you can count it. About Qu Yuanli, it''s been a long time. If we make an early decision, it will bring more benefits to the Huang family. "


    Huang Chengyan cold face, staring at Huang Yueying''s eyes, a blink.


    Huang Yueying gave a smile, a little wry.


    She knew that she had gone north to Yuyang county with Zhang Xiu. Huang Chengyan''s cold face was not for other reasons, or because she was close to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 56

    The father and daughter meet


    Huang Yueying is stared at by Huang Chengyan, which makes her feel embarrassed. As soon as she turned her eyes, she looked at pound and asked with a smile, "uncle, how do you feel after you and dad saw Qu Yuanli?"


    Pang Degong knew that Huang Yueying was changing the topic, but he appreciated Huang Yueying''s tact and replied, "after watching Qu Yuanli, I and your father agreed that Qu Yuanli has a bright future."


    Huang Chengyan looks at Pang Degong bitterly. He just wants to beat Huang Yueying.


    There was no atmosphere when pound stepped in.


    Huang Yueying took a peek at her father. She was very happy and continued, "uncle, are you ready to join hands in this business of Quyuan plow?"


    Pound is fair: "this matter has to see Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu after negotiation. Of course, if there is no accident, it should be the Pang family and the Huang family. "


    As soon as Huang Chengyan heard Zhang Xiu, he immediately answered and said in a deep voice: "speaking of Zhang Xiu, you girl, a big yellow girl, dare to run with Zhang Xiu. When did you meet him? What''s the matter with you? "


    Huang Yueying said shyly, "Dad, where have you been?"


    She and Zhang Xiu, nothing happened.


    How to follow Zhang Xiu?


    Huang Chengyan snorted and said, "I didn''t follow Zhang Xiu. Why did you leave Xiangyang with him when Zhang Xiu left? I know about this later, because I want to go north with Pang Gong, otherwise I would have killed you in Yuyang county and brought you back to Xiangyang. "


    Huang Yueying said, "Dad, you misunderstood me. My daughter and general Zhang are innocent. Nothing happened. "


    Huang Chengyan knows his daughter.


    Knowing that her daughter is a smart girl, it is impossible to choose Zhang Xiu in a short time. However, he wanted to know the details of the situation, so he forced him to say: "you all went north with Zhang Xiu. You didn''t recognize Zhang Xiu. What is that?"


    Huang Yueying jumped in anger and said, "Dad, why don''t you believe in your daughter? My daughter said everything, nothing, nothing. Don''t you know the character of your daughter? "


    Huang Chengyan said, "how do you know Zhang Xiu?"


    Huang Yueying was anxious to explain and said everything at once. When Zhang Xiu was in Xiangyang, she went to see Zhang Xiu with the design of Qin crossbow, intending to exchange for Cai Mao. Then she said that she was persuaded by Zhang Xiu to make instruments in Yuyang county.


    Even in the end, Zhang Xiu said all about pursuing her.


    When Huang Yueying finished, she suddenly understood and said, "Dad, did you cheat me just now?"


    Huang Chengyan sneered: "if I don''t cheat you or force you, can my father know all the news? It''s naive of you to think that with a design drawing, you can get Cai Mao back. "


    Huang Yueying said: "my daughter, no matter what else, just wants to exchange for her uncle. If you don''t care, your daughter will take care of it. "


    Huang Chengyan suddenly dumb.


    Cai Mao''s business is not that he doesn''t care, but that he can''t interfere at will.


    Huang Chengyan doesn''t want to entangle in CAI Mao''s affairs. As soon as his words change, he orders: "Zhang Xiu wants to pursue you, you can refuse. It''s impossible between you and Zhang Xiu. A Wufu is not worthy of my Huang family. "


    Huang Yueying was silent when she heard the speech.


    Although she and Zhang Xiu, eight characters are not a skim, but she has a good feeling for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is not a dandy in Xiangyang City, nor a flower who has never experienced wind and rain, nor a useless scholar who only talks and criticizes current politics.


    Zhang Xiu is good at writing and martial arts, and also knows how to use instruments.


    In Huang Yueying''s eyes, Zhang Xiu has never been a vulgar warrior. The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu respects her very much, knows how to be measured, and never goes beyond her.


    But Huang Chengyan''s words, let Huang Yueying suddenly some unhappy. She and Zhang Xiu have nothing happened, why does father want to block it?


    But pound saw the clue.


    Huang Yueying, the little girl, and Zhang Xiu are innocent, but at least they recognize Zhang Xiu.


    He thought a little and interrupted: "my dear brother, when it comes to Yueying, I shouldn''t have talked too much. But I want to say something


    Huang Chengyan respected Mr. Pang and said with a smile, "Mr. Pang, please say it!"


    With a soft look on his face, Pang said slowly, "I believe that with Yueying''s intelligence, I know what to do and what not to do."


    "Moreover, although Zhang Xiu is a military officer, she is not vulgar."


    "You''ve seen his talent."


    "From my point of view, there will be a place for Zhang Xiu in the future. There is no need to rush out of such a person. The most important thing is that young people have their own ideas. Why should they fight with each other? "


    "Despite the orders of her parents and the words of the matchmaker, Yueying has grown up with us old guys since she was a child. Just as a little girl, she hopes that she will have a good life."


    "So according to my suggestion, it''s natural. There''s no need to say anything forbidden or to stop it. It''s all up to Yueying to think for herself."Pound is fair: "I believe that she can distinguish between public and private affairs, distinguish between public and private affairs, and grasp the yardstick."


    Huang Yueying extra grateful, even busy way: "Dad, daughter can grasp the propriety."


    She looked at Huang Chengyan eagerly, and her eyes were full of longing.


    Although Huang Chengyan scolded Huang Yueying fiercely just now, in his heart, he extremely spoiled his daughter. Seeing her daughter''s pitiful appearance, she was immediately softened.


    With the persuasion of Lord pound, he waved his hand and said, "that''s all, that''s all."


    "Thank you, Dad, thank you, uncle."


    Huang Yueying beamed and said, "I know dad and uncle are the best."


    Pound is fair: "let''s make it clear about private matters, and then let''s get down to business. When it comes to Qu Yuanli, we must talk with Zhang Xiu in person. He asked the Pang family to participate. What the Pang family should do and what they want to do need to be discussed in person. Yueying, you inform Zhang Xiu to come to Huang''s house. "


    "No problem!"


    Huang Yueying said, "I''ll send someone to inform him immediately and ask him to come right away."


    "No hurry!"


    Huang Chengyan waved his hand and said.


    Huang Yueying asked: "Dad, what are you doing? Don''t you want to talk about Qu Yuanli? "


    Huang Chengyan shook his head and replied, "it''s natural to talk about Qu Yuanli. But now I have to observe Zhang Xiu. When we entered the city today, we heard that Zhang Xiu had another action tomorrow morning. For the time being, let''s see what he''s going to do. After that, I''ll talk about Qu Yuanli. "


    Huang Yueying said, "if you want to know the reason, I''ll ask Zhang Xiu to explain it, and then you''ll understand it all."


    "No need!"


    Huang Chengyan shook his head and said, "tomorrow, we''ll go and have a look."


    Huang Yueying had to nod her head.


    Pang Degong actually understood Huang Chengyan''s mind. Originally, Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu had no intersection, and he didn''t intend to understand Zhang Xiu. But now when it comes to Huang Yueying, Huang Chengyan has more thoughts and wants to understand Zhang Xiu.


    Tomorrow morning, Zhang Xiu will take the soldiers to the center of the city. Huang Chengyan is ready to hide in the dark to see what Zhang Xiu can do.


    This is Huang Chengyan''s mind.


    Pang Degong didn''t point it out. He broke the topic and said, "Yueying, what Zhang Xiu did in Yuyang County, I don''t know the details. Please tell me."


    Huang Yueying scratched her head and said helplessly, "if you want to talk about major events, I know clearly. For example, Zhang Xiu killed Gong Du and Liu PI, and Zhang Xiu killed the Deng family. But I don''t know the details. Most of the time, I was in the workshop. After this period of busy, I recovered the Qin crossbow map, has been mass production, began to equip Zhang Xiu''s army


    Pang Degong''s eyes were shining. He and Huang Chengyan looked at each other and understood the strength of Zhang Xiu''s army equipped with Qin crossbows. Once equipped with Qin crossbow, Zhang Xiu''s strength will be improved.


    Pound Justice: "also made is how weapons?"


    Huang Yueying said: "in other aspects, it''s nothing. However, all the craftsmen in the workshop, sweating like rain, were determined to forge weapons for Zhang Xiu. These people can trust Zhang Xiu. I don''t understand why they are so obedient to Zhang Xiu when they are sent by their uncle. "


    Pang Degong said with a smile: "this is Zhang Xiu''s skill of controlling people. I have said for a long time that Zhang Xiu is not a simple general."


    Huang Chengyan nodded, but did not comment.


    As the saying goes, seeing is believing, and hearing is believing. We still have to see how Zhang Xiu is.

 Chapter 57

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu left the county government early and went to the military camp. By the time he arrived at the camp, the soldiers had assembled in the school yard. All the soldiers, with their helmets on, are in high spirits and orderly formation.


    Zhang Xiu strode to the front of the army, big sleeve a brush, ordered: "start!"


    At the command, the army set out.


    Nearly ten thousand auxiliary soldiers and combat soldiers left the barracks and headed for the center of the city. Soldiers in the army walk in the street, attracting countless people to watch.


    The whole scene is magnificent.


    When Zhang Xiu led the army to the location of the stone tablet, the soldiers in the army lined up.


    As for the people who came to watch, they all stood around. They made a few circles on the inner three floors and the outer three floors. Pang Degong, Huang Chengyan and Huang Yueying also arrived early. Three people in a relatively close position, quietly watching.


    Zhang Xiu strides out and is very beautiful.


    He stood on the stage and looked around at everyone.


    At this moment, the eyes of both the people and the soldiers gathered on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked serious and said in a loud voice: "today, all the soldiers are gathered here for nothing else, just to mourn the soldiers who died in all previous wars."


    "The soldiers'' accusation is to defend the country. In every war, countless soldiers died. It seems that the death of a soldier is a matter of course. But Ben will think that each and every one of us should not forget these soldiers who paid silently. "


    "Only because of their bravery and fearlessness of death can old people die."


    "Because of their selfless dedication, the children can be raised."


    "Because of them, we can enjoy peace."


    "All this is the military''s contribution."


    "So we can''t forget those who died or are still alive. This monument will be erected in the center of Yuyang county to commemorate the soldiers who died in battle. "


    "May everyone be remembered by future generations."


    "May the hero be immortal!"


    Zhang Xiu said at the end, almost trying to roar. As soon as he reached out, he grabbed the red silk on the stone tablet and pulled it hard. In an instant, the silk fell, revealing a stone tablet nearly three feet high.


    On the stone tablet, there are five big characters.


    Monument to heroes!


    The front and back sides of the stone tablet are symmetrical, and there are both front and back of these five words. The rest of the stele is engraved with the names of soldiers who died in the battle.


    Pointing to the monument of heroes, Zhang Xiu once again exclaimed, "may heroes be immortal!"


    "Heroes are immortal!"


    Gan Ning, Huang Zhao and other generals are shouting.


    With the shouts of Gan Ning and Huang Zhao, the soldiers in the army followed suit one after another and tried their best to roar.


    Zhang Xiu set up a monument to the heroes, which had a great impact on both the people and the soldiers.


    Because this is the first time.


    Soldiers in the army, not respected, are humble beings. Both the soldiers themselves and their families feel that it is normal for them to die in battle. They don''t feel that there is any problem.


    But at present, the soldiers who died in the war are engraved on the stone tablet and worshipped by later generations.


    Zhang Xiu was so grateful to the soldiers.


    Many soldiers at this moment, tears in their eyes, excited inexplicable.


    On the battlefield, soldiers are cannon fodder. They have to charge regardless of whether the front is a forest of guns and arrows, whether the front is a sea of swords and flames, or whether the front is an abyss.


    With luck, it''s good to survive.


    Bad luck, you deserve to die!


    No one remembers them!


    In Yuyang County, Zhang Xiu set up a monument to the heroes and gave them respect. At the bottom of every soldier''s heart, there was the idea that a soldier would die for a confidant.


    Pledge allegiance to Zhang Xiu!


    But with this heroic monument, it''s worth dying for Zhang Xiu!


    Zhang Xiu said something, and said: "since this year, every year on June 18, as long as this will be on one day, we will pay homage to the dead soldiers. Not for anything else, just to make the soldiers not forgotten, just to make people remember the military''s efforts. "


    "Boom!"


    This remark caused a sensation.


    The soldiers in the army are very excited.


    Huang Chengyan looked in his eyes, his eyes narrowed, and there was a light in his eyes.


    As the patriarch of the Huang family, although he has no official position, and does not involve official affairs, Huang Chengyan has a certain vision. After listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, he said with emotion: "after this incident, no one can shake the army under Zhang Xiu''s command."


    Pang Degong stroked his beard under his jaw and said: "I have said that Zhang Xiu is not simple."


    Huang Chengyan nodded.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the stage and continued: "today, we honor the dead brave."


    With that, he looked at Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu then arranged for people to offer sacrifices such as the three sacrifices and said, "worship!"Zhang Xiu stood in front of the stone tablet and bowed.


    All soldiers, follow.


    With the command of Xu Shu, after three worships, Zhang Xiu ended the memorial ceremony. At this time, Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "we can''t forget the brave sons who died in the war, and we can''t forget the living."


    "In the army, meritorious service must be rewarded."


    Zhang xiulang said: "in view of the brave fighting of the soldiers, we have decided to increase the salary of all the soldiers in the army for one month. Next month, you can get a double salary. "


    "Good!"


    In the crowd, the soldiers roared with excitement.


    For soldiers, money is always the most practical and direct. What they got before was respect, but now they have the advantage of Zhang Xiu. They are very excited and shout loudly.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    In the crowd, someone was shouting.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one soldiers, shouting.


    Looking at this scene, Zhang Xiu, with a smile in her mouth, raised her hand and continued: "this will be able to have a foothold in Yuyang County, without the support of the people in Yuyang county. This will decide that from today on, people in Yuyang county will be exempted from corvee for one year. "


    WOW!!


    The people around are also excited.


    For ordinary people, corvee and tax are two big mountains. When families are in trouble, corvee and tax are enough to crush their back and make a good family broken.


    Zhang Xiu exempt from corvee, people can be much easier.


    As a matter of fact, after Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County, there was no corvee, because all the fortifications were carried out by means of work relief. After all, the foundation of Yuyang county was weak.


    Around the people, excited like crazy shouting.


    Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong looked at each other, and they both looked incredible.


    Zhang Xiu''s wisdom is close to the demon.


    The use of a stone tablet, gathered the hearts of the army, so that soldiers follow wholeheartedly.


    By reducing corvee, we can gather the people''s support.


    Such means are not complicated, but not everyone can do it.


    Zhang Xiu and all the other people and soldiers, after calming down, continued: "in the past wars, countless warriors have emerged, and these people should be rewarded."


    Many people in the army were excited when they heard this.


    No one knows about the award.


    Who will be rewarded?


    What if I had my own?


    Every soldier has expectations in his eyes and hopes to be rewarded.

 Chapter 58

    Zhang Xiu put her hand into her sleeve, took out a roll of silk, spread it out and looked at it, then said in a loud voice: "next, the people who would have read come to the stage in turn and stand in front of me."


    "Zhang Fu, Wang Ning, Qiu Tong, Zuo Xuan..."


    Zhang Xiu called one by one. When he spoke, there was silence around him, and no one spoke.


    Those who have been named, come on stage quickly.


    One by one, with an excited look on his face, he stood up with his head high.


    As a matter of fact, there are 100 people in this group, all of whom are military officers. These people have just been promoted because of their good performance in the recent war.


    One hundred people, line up.


    Although there are few people, they are full of spirit.


    Looking at the people''s mental outlook, Zhang Xiu nodded her approval and said slowly, "these 100 people were all ordinary soldiers in the army. In the army, they are strict with themselves; in the battlefield, they are brave. "


    "They are worthy warriors."


    "The brave are fearless. They deserve today''s glory. In view of their contributions, we will give each of them 10000 yuan as encouragement. "


    With a wave of her big hand, Zhang Xiu saw soldiers coming up with boxes.


    In the box, there are piles of money.


    Zhang Xiu waved to the soldiers to give out the money, and then let the people back down.


    After the 100 captains retired, Zhang Xiu looked at the silk in her hand and continued: "Liu Li, fan Qiang, fan Xi, Zhong Tai..."


    Zhang Xiu read the names of twenty more people.


    These 20 men are centurions and captains in the army, and they are the pillars of the army.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "these 20 people are responsible for nearly ten thousand soldiers under the general''s command. They have the courage to take responsibility. Their arms are as strong as iron, their minds as steel


    "It''s them that surround the home."


    "It was them who defended the glory."


    "They are the mainstay of the army. With them, I would have been relieved. "


    Zhang Xiu''s voice became more and more high and emotional, saying: "no one will forget their efforts. Their persistence would have been believed to continue. Ten gold for each of these 20 people. "


    Ten gold is not a small sum for these generals.


    Soldiers in the army are not like local officials. Local officials have a place to make money, but many generals are poor. I''m very excited to get ten gold awards at a time.


    The soldiers took the golden cakes and handed them out in public.


    Twenty generals bowed their thanks to Zhang Xiu.


    After this group of generals retired, Zhang Xiu closed the silk in her hand and set her eyes on the area where Gan Ning was. She said in a loud voice: "Gan Ning, Huang Zhao, Ling Feng, Zhang Shi, Li Miao!"


    "Yes


    When five people heard this, they stood up together.


    These five people are Zhang Xiu''s confidants.


    Gan Ning was recently subordinated to Zhang Xiu, while Huang Zhao, Ling Feng, Zhang Shi and Li Miao were followed by Zhang Xiu when she killed Li Chen. Although the importance of Huang Zhao was weakened with Gan Ning''s joining, he was still the chief General in the army.


    Five people, standing in line.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over and said slowly: "in the time of crisis, I''ll see a good general. Only when the sea is full of vicissitudes can a hero show his true colors. In the most difficult time of the army, you have been sticking to it and forging ahead. Because of you, Ben will be here today. "


    "Here, Ben will say thank you."


    With that, he bowed to Gan Ning and others.


    One bowed, Gan Ning, Huang Zhao and other people''s faces were extremely excited, as if there were thousands of words in his chest, but all his thoughts turned into an idea.


    I''m Zhang Xiu.


    Death is Zhang Xiu''s ghost.


    Willing to die for Zhang Xiu!


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and continued: "you are a pillar of the army. You will be rewarded with 100 gold each and a house. If you have a crush on girls from any family, I will protect your media myself. "


    This remark made everyone laugh.


    Many of the soldiers in the army couldn''t help laughing.


    The atmosphere is relaxed, but everyone''s respect for Zhang Xiu is heavy.


    The soldiers came forward again and sent money and land deeds. Gan Ning, Huang Zhao and others took over and gave thanks. After the five returned to their original place, Zhang Xiu looked at the soldiers and the surrounding people.


    At the moment, the soldiers were excited.


    Because Zhang Xiu rewards and punishments clearly, as long as they set up meritorious deeds, they will be rewarded. The people around them are very open-minded. They all think that if they join the army, it would be a good choice.


    Zhang Xiu adjusted her mood and said in a loud voice: "to set up a monument here today, one is to remember the dead brave, the other is to reward the meritorious people. But what Ben would have hoped more was that there would be more people to defend the country together. "


    "In the near future, the government will recruit soldiers and enhance its military strength."


    "Soldiers carry not only weapons but also the safety of the people and their homes. They deserve respect. Ben will hope that more people will join in. "When Zhang Xiu mentioned the matter of recruiting soldiers, she said nothing more and ordered: "everyone has it. Go back to camp!"


    Ganning immediately arranged.


    All soldiers, turn around and get ready to retreat.


    But just as the army was about to leave, there was a road about ten feet wide in the surrounded street.


    This was spontaneously given up by the people.


    One by one, the people look solemn.


    All the people were moved by Zhang Xiu''s previous words and were grateful to her. Not only thanks to Zhang Xiu for reducing corvee, but also thanks to Zhang Xiu for protecting Yuyang county from war.


    Looking at the departing army, Pang Degong said with emotion: "a simple mourning for the soldiers, including the cohesion of the hearts of the soldiers and the people, but also by the way recruiting soldiers, Zhang Xiu this son, has a bright future."


    The more I come into contact with Zhang Xiu, the more I feel that Zhang Xiu is not simple.


    Huang Chengyan also nodded silently.


    Huang Yueying''s heart is full of joy. In her heart, she felt that Zhang Xiu''s performance was too wonderful.


    With nothing to say, the three returned to Huang''s home.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Huang Chengyan looked at Huang Yueying and said, "Yueying, go to arrange for someone immediately. Please come to Zhang Xiu. Let''s talk about Qu Yuanli."


    Huang Yueying frowned and said, "Dad, general Zhang has just finished mourning the soldiers. In his hands, there must be a lot to arrange. Is it not proper to invite him now? "


    Huang Chengyan said, "what''s wrong? It''s settled. Just arrange it. "


    Huang Yueying was ready to retort, but he saw that pound made a color to her.


    "Yes, my daughter will arrange it at once."


    Huang Yueying believed that pound would not harm her, so she turned to arrange it.


    Pound Fair: "brother, you still don''t trust Zhang Xiu, want to take this test again?"


    Huang sighed: "when it comes to Yueying, you have to be more careful. If Zhang Xiu has the heart, even if the business is busy, as soon as we hear that, we should put down the things in hand and rush over. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about Yueying, she will refuse. From a small matter, we can see the character of Zhang Xiu. "


    "That''s true!"


    Pound said: "we''ll see!"


    The people arranged by Huang Yueying soon came outside the barracks after they left the Huang family.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu was in the military camp.


    Zhang Xiu got a report from the soldiers, saying that the people of the Huang family asked to see him and let him in immediately. When he heard that Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong had arrived, he asked him to go immediately and agreed to come down immediately.


    Zhang Xiu asked the messenger to go back first, then called Xu Shu and said, "Yuanzhi, Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong are in Yuyang county. I want to go to Huang''s house. The rest is up to you. "


    When Xu Shu heard that pound had arrived, he said, "don''t worry, my Lord. I will arrange everything."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and went out directly.


    Xu Shu stepped forward and asked, "Lord, don''t you go back to the county government to change your clothes?"


    "No


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "if you don''t change your clothes, it''s good to use this armor."


    Xu Shu said: "I will wait for your good news."


    Zhang Xiu smiles and strides away.

 Chapter 59

    Zhang Xiu left the camp and went straight to Huang''s house. It didn''t take long to arrive outside Huang''s shop. Zhang Xiu came to Huang''s shop several times, got familiar with the situation and went straight to the hall.


    Go to the door of the hall, Zhang Xiu whole body armor, just head high into.


    In the hall.


    Huang Chengyan, Pang Degong and Huang Yueying took their seats respectively. Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept and fell on Huang Chengyan. He took the lead in bowing his hand and said, "Zhang Xiu, I''ve seen Huang Gong!"


    Then he looked at Pang and saluted, "I''ve seen Pang!"


    Pang and Huang nodded.


    In terms of identity, they are all cloth clothes.


    Zhang Xiu, however, is in charge.


    Zhang Xiu can do etiquette, it can be seen that Zhang Xiu is not a rebellious person.


    Huang Chengyan''s eyes narrowed and examined Zhang Xiu. He said slowly, "how did general Zhang come to see his guests in armor? Is general Zhang always worried about assassins? "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "embroidery has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She is a martial arts artist and seldom meets an opponent. Who can assassinate me? "


    In the words, there is strong self-confidence.


    With Zhang Xiu''s martial arts, it''s almost extremely difficult to attack him.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, he explained: "on weekdays, embroidery seldom wears armor, but always wears ordinary clothes. Because today I mourn the dead soldiers, so I wear armor. Just now I got news from Yueying that Huang Gong and Pang Gong arrived in Yuyang county. In order to be in a hurry, I couldn''t change my clothes. Please forgive me for the haste. "


    Huang Chengyan stroked his beard under his jaw, and a touch of satisfaction passed over his face.


    Zhang Xiu''s explanation is quite good.


    Huang Chengyan changed his words and continued: "General Zhang is here to talk about Qu Yuanli. The Qu Yuan Li, invented by general Zhang, has been discussed by my husband and Pang Gong. It is indeed a tool beneficial to the country and the people. In general Zhang''s opinion, how should we distribute the benefits? "


    Mr. pound then said, "it''s business. Please think it over before you come up with an appropriate distribution plan. Old man and Chengyan, not Liu Jingzhou, you can extort at will. "


    This is a knock on Zhang Xiu.


    At the same time, make a statement.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Pang Gong is joking. I can''t blackmail anyone, and I can''t blackmail you two. Qu Yuanli was sent to Huang Gong and Pang Gong. With the power of Huang Jia and Pang Jia, he was able to make it himself, and he didn''t need to find me any more. "


    "However, you two keep your promise and come to Yuyang County for negotiation."


    "It can be seen that they are all modest gentlemen."


    "People respect me, I respect people. The two elders, Zhu Yu, are in front of me. How can I open my mouth to the lion again? "


    Zhang Xiu talks without stage fright.


    Even pound could not help praising his free and unrestrained posture: "what a sharp mouth. I''m just Kongming''s mouth. I can compete with you."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Pang Gong is not praised."


    Mr. pound said frankly, "don''t talk about it. Let''s get down to business. How did you consider Qu Yuanli''s profit distribution plan? "


    But Zhang Xiu did not answer, and said slowly: "Pang Gong and Huang Gong went north together. They expected that they had evaluated Qu Yuanli''s interests. I don''t know what Pang and Huang thought about? "


    "I''m a simple man, a general, a rough man, and I don''t like to negotiate around."


    "Pang Gong and Huang Gong, you can say your conditions directly."


    "All right, no way."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you two, what do you think?"


    When Huang Chengyan heard this, he said: "after the quyuanli was made, the net profit from the sale can be divided into four or two. The Huang and Pang families account for 40% and 20% respectively


    Pound frowned.


    Huang Chengyan has been recruited.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu came up, he took the initiative to show weakness, saying that what is a military general, what is a simple person, what is a rude person, and what does not like to negotiate around. These are cliches, which are intended to set their bottom line.


    Unexpectedly, Huang Chengyan said it straight.


    Pound sighed in his heart that the negotiation was a failure. From this aspect, we can see Zhang Xiu''s cunning.


    If you don''t pay attention, you''re in.


    Pang Degong was not angry, and added: "General Zhang, Chengyan said our bottom line. You don''t have to beat around the bush. What''s your condition? "


    Zhang Xiu smiles and confidently says: "it''s reasonable to say that I don''t care about the sale of Qu Yuanli. I can get 20% of the net profit with just one drawing. It''s a very good condition."


    Huang Chengyan said, "just understand!"


    When he went north, Huang Chengyan discussed with Pang Degong. Huang Chengyan initially proposed that Zhang Xiu should make up 10% of the profits, and Huang family and Pang family should make up 45% of the profits, but Pang Degong made adjustments.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu only has 20%.


    Pang Degong heard Zhang Xiu''s voice, knew that Zhang Xiu had something to say, and said again: "and then? What do you think of General Zhang? "Zhang xiudao: "the boy does have an immature idea."


    Pound is fair: "what idea?"


    Zhang Xiu sat upright and said, "I hope the sale of quyuanli is four or three. I account for 40% of the net profit, and the Pang family and the Huang family each account for 30%


    Huang Chengyan looks at Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Yueying sat aside, frowning.


    She''s quite nervous!


    In the distribution of Qu Yuanli''s interests, she thinks that giving Zhang Xiu 20% is worthy of Zhang Xiu. But Zhang Xiu suddenly put forward the conditions, let Huang Yueying nervous, because she also feel that Zhang Xiu inch.


    Huang Chengyan took a deep breath, with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, it''s the limit to give you 20% of the profits. You want 40% more now. It''s a real lack of human heart. "


    Even pound was surprised.


    Give Zhang Xiu 20%, not take advantage of Zhang Xiu, after all, Zhang Xiu nothing, you can get 20% of the net profit.


    This condition is worthy of Zhang Xiu.


    Pound didn''t get angry. He quickly calmed down, waved his hand to stop Huang Chengyan from getting angry, and said, "General Zhang, why do you want to monopolize 40% of the market? To get so much, you have to have the right reasons, not just a single drawing. "


    Zhang xiudao: "Pang Gong Mingjian!"


    Pound Fair: "talk about it, come up with a reason to persuade me and Chengyan. If you can''t convince people, my Pang family would rather not do this quyuanli business than be so wronged. "


    Huang Chengyan said, "so is the Huang family."


    Zhang Xiu did not have the slightest nervousness and said: "I have just said that 20% of the net profit is a preferential treatment for Zhang Xiu. But the reason why Xiaozi put forward 40% of the net profit is that he intends to further cooperate with Pang family and Huang family. "


    Pound just: "how to cooperate?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "first, in addition to the Quyuan plow, I have a lot of equipment to build in my mind, all of which are agricultural equipment. The Pang family and Huang family are responsible for the manufacture and sale of these instruments. "


    "Second, I can allow the Pang family and the Huang family to smelt weapons in my jurisdiction and then sell them in a unified way."


    "Farm tools make money, but they are not big heads."


    "In this world of great struggle, weapons are the most profitable. Imagine the Pang family and Huang family in Yuyang County, large-scale smelting weapons, and then unified sales, there must be countless people will come to buy


    "These two are the reasons!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "of course, the Pang family and the Huang family are not willing to participate in the next plan, and they are not willing to cooperate with Zhang Xiu. Then I''m sorry to monopolize 40% of the interests. 20% is enough!"


    Huang Chengyan''s breathing suddenly aggravated.


    Everyone knows that weapons are the most important thing in troubled times. If the Huang family can participate in the manufacture and sale of weapons, they will surely reap countless profits. As a matter of fact, the Huang family has the ability to manufacture weapons, but they can only be used for their own private soldier''s songs, not for sale.


    Any vassal ordered to ban it, because there were many uncontrollable factors in allowing the people under his jurisdiction to make weapons and sell them, and it was very likely to finance the enemy.


    But Zhang Xiu was willing to cooperate, let them make weapons, and then sell them.


    It''s a big deal!


    Huang Chengyan heart, the previous anger completely dissipated, replaced by thinking about the feasibility of Zhang Xiu plan.

 Chapter 60

    Huang Chengyan took a deep breath, suppressed his impetuous mood, and said: "first, you keep saying that there are more agricultural equipment in your mind, who knows?"


    Zhang Xiu said confidently: "Mr. Huang, trust is built up little by little. It''s normal that you don''t believe me now. But when it comes to cooperation, how can I joke about my reputation? "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "in my study, I happen to have a sketch of the instrument, which was just made. This is a pair of waterwheel, which is specially used for irrigation. It can be used to appreciate Huang Gong and Pang Gong. "


    "Bring it, now."


    Huang Yueying opened her mouth as soon as her eyes brightened.


    She was very nervous before, so the conflict between Zhang Xiu and her father disappeared, and she immediately put down the burden. As soon as I heard about the new equipment, I was immediately interested.


    Her interest is here.


    Huang Chengyan sees Huang Yueying cutting in and stares at Huang Yueying. Suddenly, Huang Yueying stops talking and can only sit down.


    Huang Chengyan said, "please let general Zhang get it and let''s evaluate it."


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate.


    He called a servant of the Huang family and said, "go to the barracks to find Xu Shu. Let him go to the general''s study and get the drawing of the bobbin cart."


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he left the hall and went to the barracks.


    Lord pound was also in the mood.


    He knew Xu Shu and knew that he had no attainments in farm tools. Since it is a new farm tool, it must be made by Zhang Xiu. But Zhang Xiu, a martial arts man, can have such a wonderful idea. It''s really amazing.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Mr. Huang, the first reason has been made clear. And the second thing? "


    Huang Chengyan said: "if weapons are forged, how can interests be distributed?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "of course, it''s 433. I''m still 40%. Pang''s family and Huang''s family account for 30% respectively."


    "40% here is still pure profit."


    "The Huang and Pang families are responsible for the production of weapons and the entry of money. However, the delivery of weapons must be the responsibility of my people, and I can''t fake it to others. "


    "All the weapons made have to be looked after by my people."


    "The reason why I own 40% is that I have to ensure the safety of weapons. If someone criticizes me with words, I will also come forward to clarify and resist the overt and covert attacks from all sides. "


    "It''s not too much for me to account for 40% of the net profit alone," Zhang said


    Huang Chengyan thought about it and thought it was the truth.


    30% profit is enough!


    Huang Chengyan did not make a decision immediately, but looked at Pang Degong and said, "Pang Gong, what do you think?"


    "I don''t mind!"


    "Pang''s family is only responsible for forging and account management, accounting for 30% of the profits. That''s enough," Pang said with a smile


    Huang Chengyan said, "I don''t mind."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "if that''s the case, it''s settled. Whether it''s Qu Yuan plow, or other farm tools and equipment, or even weapons, it''s divided into four or three profits. "


    "No problem!"


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan should go down at the same time.


    Zhang Xiu said: "with business finished, I have a private matter. I hope I can get Pang Gong''s consent."


    Pound is fair: "but it doesn''t matter."


    Zhang Xiu looked sincere and said, "I hope I can worship Pang Gong and listen to his teachings."


    On hearing this, pound raised his eyebrows.


    Zhang Xiu wants to worship him as a teacher, obviously not for his knowledge, but for his reputation in Jingzhou. In addition, I hope to take advantage of him as a teacher to change the origin of the general.


    In this era, we pay attention to the origin and background.


    Although Yuan Shao is capable, without the reputation and strong support of the yuan family, he could not easily occupy Jizhou, let alone be followed by countless celebrities.


    Zhang Xiu needs Pound''s background.


    From the bottom of his heart, pound thought that there was nothing to teach Zhang Xiu. In Pang Degong''s opinion, Zhang Xiu''s degree of sophistication is no less than those of them who have lived for a long time.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu also had a lot of insight in strategy and statecraft.


    Such a man, Lord pound can''t.


    But the conditions proposed by Zhang Xiu are not to study. also. Zhang Xiu has given the Pang family a lot of benefits. It would be too unkind to refuse Zhang Xiu.


    This is a man who can''t help himself in the world.


    I can''t help it. Pang Degong is the owner of the Pang family. He has to think about it for the Pang family.


    Pang Degong took a deep breath and soon made a decision. With a smile, he said, "General Zhang is a young and handsome man. It''s my honor to be willing to learn from me."


    "Disciple Zhang Xiu, meet Mr. Pang!"


    Zhang Xiu hit the snake with the stick, immediately stood up, went to the front of Pang De Gong, pushed the golden mountain down, knelt down like a jade pillar, and banged his head three times in succession. He looked respectful and didn''t make any mistakes.Although she wanted to learn from Pound''s fame and identity, Zhang Xiu also respected pound.


    Mr. pound, a modest gentleman!


    This is the elder!


    Therefore, since Zhang Xiu really worshipped her teacher, she sincerely kowtowed to her teacher.


    Pang Degong took a deep breath, lifted Zhang Xiu in his hands and said, "get up!"


    "Master Xie Pang!"


    Zhang Xiu salutes respectfully.


    Mr. pound said, "since you worship me as your teacher, I''m not polite. I won''t call you General Zhang any more. What are your words? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll be 20 next year. I haven''t written yet. Please give me some words."


    Pound stroked his beard under his jaw with a funny heart.


    This kid, just wait for him to ask.


    Zhang Xiu worships him as a teacher, and he also personally gives Zhang Xiu words, which shows the relationship between the two sides. Since then, the Pang family has completely stood on the side of Zhang Xiu, which is the world''s view.


    However, pound is not a man of indecision.


    There is gain, there is loss!


    Pound doesn''t care about the opinions of outsiders, and since he has accepted Zhang Xiu as a disciple, he is a teacher.


    Pound just color way: "embroiderer, and show homophony.". I hope that in your lifetime, you can paint and embroider this broken River and mountain into a beautiful one. I give you the word "Jiang Ping". I hope the river and the mountain will be flat forever. I hope you can weave a beautiful river and the mountain again. "


    "Master Xie Pang!"


    Zhang Xiu closed her hands and saluted Mr. pound respectfully.


    From then on, he had words.


    He returned to his seat. Just after he sat down, Huang Chengyan stared at Zhang Xiu. He asked coldly, "General Zhang, I heard people in my family say that you come to the mansion to look for Yueying from time to time. Do you want to marry Yueying?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered without hesitation.


    There is no hesitation in this matter. The man is brave enough to do it. Since he pursues Huang Yueying, he will not be afraid to ask. What''s more, Zhang Xiu worships Pang Degong as a teacher. With this identity, it''s different.


    Huang Chengyan held his head high and threw his voice on the ground: "you are not qualified now!"


    Zhang xiudao: "how can we be qualified?"


    For Huang Chengyan''s words, Zhang Xiu is not angry, but happy. Huang Chengyan didn''t object to it, but said that he was not qualified, which proved that it had something to talk about.


    This is Zhang Xiu happy.


    Huang Chengyan said: "if you want to marry Yueying, at least you have to be a prefect. At least, you have to have the identity of the prefect of Nanyang County. Otherwise, there is no need to talk about courtship. "


    He set up obstacles on purpose.


    He would like to see how Zhang Xiu would reply.


    However, the obstacles proposed by Pang Degong are really insignificant in Zhang Xiu''s view.


    He looked confident and said in a loud voice: "please don''t worry about Mr. Huang. Zhang Xiu promises that he won''t ask for marriage until he reaches the position of the prefect of Nanyang County. When I become the prefect of Nanyang County, I will send someone to propose to marry Yueying. "


    Huang Chengyan reminded: "Yueying has already passed 28 years. She is getting older and can''t wait long. You have to hurry up. "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "one year at most, embroidery will promote marriage!"


    "Good ambition, I''ll wait for you."


    Huang Chengyan heard Zhang Xiu''s words, but also praise. If Zhang Xiu can become the prefect of Nanyang County within one year, what harm will it do if he marries Huang Yueying to Zhang Xiu?


    Huang Yueying, be a hero''s wife!

 Chapter 61

    Huang Yueying on one side is most embarrassed.


    It''s about her marriage, but she can''t cut in. She has no say in the affairs of marriage. What''s more, she doesn''t dislike Zhang Xiu. On the contrary, she is happy to hear her heroic words.


    Pound changed the subject and said, "Jiang Ping, when I came to Yuyang County, I heard a piece of news from the prefecture. Liu Biao transferred a man named Wei Yan to be the magistrate of Wan county


    "Wei Yan?"


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows a Yang, unexpectedly Liu Biao unexpectedly sent Wei Yan to Wan county.


    He understood it as soon as he thought about it.


    Obviously, Liu Biao set up an obstacle for him. He planned ahead of time to prevent him from going north and to prevent him from controlling the north of Nanyang County.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu was glad in her heart.


    Thanks to pound as a teacher, without Pound''s reminder, he did not know the change of Wan County, nor did he know that Wei Yan was going north.


    That''s the advantage of having a background.


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan are both famous people from Jingzhou. Xiangyang City, as long as there is a little bit of wind and grass, they can quickly get the news.


    If you know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles.


    Zhang Xiu knew the news of Wei Yan''s going north in advance. When she attacked Wan County, she would feel much easier.


    Even if Wei Yan knew soldiers, Zhang Xiu was not afraid.


    Zhang Xiu looked grateful and said, "I will pay attention to Pang Shi''s reminding."


    Pound just said, "just write it down."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t mention much about Wei Yan. She digged off the topic and talked about the rest. He became a disciple of Lord pound. He had a further relationship and spoke freely.


    In the chat, time goes by.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    A dignified young man in a black robe strode in.


    It was Xu Shu who came.


    When he entered the hall, he bowed his hand to Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan. Then he took out the design of the bobbin car from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took the design drawing, but before he moved, Pang Degong took the initiative to say: "Chengyan is a master in equipment manufacturing, just give him the drawing."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Xiu should go down and hand the drawing to Huang Chengyan.


    Huang Chengyan took it and looked at it carefully. It took him less than half a quarter of an hour to read it all. His face was full of excitement, and he praised, "good, good. Do you call this a "river wagon"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Huang Chengyan said: "the design of this object is a wonderful work. Such utensils, used in irrigation, will greatly save manpower and material resources. In dry years, it''s even more necessary. "


    Huang Yueying was on the side, even more excited.


    She was eager to see the drawings, but they were in Huang Chengyan''s hands and she couldn''t reach them.


    For a moment, my heart itched.


    "Huang Gonghui''s eyes!" said Zhang Xiu


    Pang Degong chuckled and said, "Jiang Ping, if you have more wonderful ideas, you can draw them slowly. Pang and Huang will give their full support. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m here to thank Master Pang first."


    Mr. pound waved his hand and laughed.


    Xu Shu stood aside and was surprised to hear Zhang Xiu''s words.


    He heard that Zhang Xiu claimed to be a "disciple". It was obvious that Zhang Xiu was a teacher of Pang Degong.


    How is that possible?


    Xu Shu couldn''t understand how Zhang Xiu convinced pound.


    Pound was always strict in accepting apprentices.


    Liu Biao went to Jingzhou and served as a governor of the state. He once hoped that his two legitimate sons would be worshipped by Lord pound. On the one hand, it is to learn classics from Mr. pound; on the other hand, it is also the hope to win over Mr. pound.


    But pound refused.


    Today, it''s really surprising that Pang Degong should accept Zhang Xiu as his apprentice.


    But Xu Shu didn''t mention it.


    He stood by and watched quietly.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Mr. Huang looked at the drawings and confirmed that there was no problem. Then the drawings of the bobbin car were handed over to Mr. Huang for safekeeping. Next, Huang Gong can try to make a bobbin car to see the effect. "


    "Good!"


    Huang Chengyan happily accepted the drawing. His eyes were full of excitement. He stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I won''t accompany you. You are free and don''t have to be restrained."


    With that, he left directly.


    Seeing this, Huang Yueying immediately said, "I''ll go first, too."


    She follows Huang Chengyan and leaves quickly.


    Seeing this, Pang said with a smile: "Chengyan is also obsessed with equipment manufacturing. There is not much difference between the two


    Zhang xiudao said, "Lord Huang is a real gentleman who is straightforward."


    Pang Degong nodded, his eyes fell on Xu Shu, and said: "when Yuan Zhi was in Xiangyang, he always lived at the foot of lumen mountain. I wonder when you will surrender to Jiang Ping. After all, the time Jiang Ping spent in Xiangyang was just one or two days. "At the beginning, Xu Shu followed Zhang Xiu, and the news didn''t leak out, even Pang Degong didn''t know.


    Xu Shu was not impatient and said: "on the day when Liu Jingzhou held the cultural fair, Cui Jun, Shi Tao and others were drinking tea and chatting in yunxiangfang. It happened that the LORD was also in yunxiangfang. When we talked about current affairs, the LORD put forward different opinions and made some arguments. Then, the Lord himself solicits, and I submit to him. "


    Pound just: "at that time, you are submissive?"


    "Yes


    Xu Shu nodded and answered.


    Pound joked: "Yueying, who met Jiang Ping, was taken to Yuyang county. You met him and were taken to Yuyang county. What I said is not bad. Jiang Ping''s mouth is really beautiful and powerful. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the teacher is wrong."


    Mr. pound waved his hand and said, "all the big things have been decided, and then nothing will happen. You, go ahead with your own business. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Xiu and Xu Shu arched their hands and stepped down together.


    After they got out of Huang''s house and got into the carriage, Xu Shu''s face was full of joy and said, "how did the Lord worship Pang Gong as a teacher? It''s not easy to learn from Pang Gong. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "after the matter of Qu Yuanli was agreed, I mentioned it, hoping to study under Pang Shi. Then Pang Shi agreed and gave me the word" Jiang Ping. ". You should send someone to publicize it. "


    "I understand


    Xu Shu was very excited at the moment.


    After Zhang Xiu went north from Xiangyang, she received Gan Ning and defeated Gong Du and Liu PI. Now she is tied up with the Huang family and Pang family in terms of interests, and worships Pang Degong''s family. It can be said that Zhang Xiu has soared to the sky.


    Three years no sound, a sound is already!


    Today, Zhang Xiu is rising completely.


    Xu Shu followed Zhang Xiu and was very happy to see her rise.


    As soon as they got back to the county government, some soldiers rushed into the hall and reported: "general, it''s not good. Our soldiers are blocked in Changle building! "


    Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "what''s the reason?"


    Changlelou, a brothel, is the most famous place of GouLan in Yuyang county.


    It''s recently opened.


    Yuyang County used to be a poor place where few people came to spend money. After Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County, he developed production, resumed business and industry, and everything prospered. Some people saw business opportunities.


    Then, there is Changle building.


    In addition to attracting some scholars and nobles, many soldiers will go to this business.


    Soldiers in the army have time off every month. Some soldiers who have enough to eat and the whole family are not hungry. When they are paid, they like to play in Changle building.


    Zhang Xiu is not surprised at such things.


    The soldiers in the army have demands and reasonable consumption, and he can''t restrain them. He just tells the soldiers that it''s OK to go to Changle building, but no trouble.


    His soldiers are obedient.


    After the soldiers went, they were all well behaved and didn''t cause any trouble, but today there was a conflict.

 Chapter 62

    The soldier bowed slightly and reported: "it''s the people of Changle building who look down on us. Today, Changle building let Qingyou girl out. Who said the price is high, let Qingyou girl accompany him for a spring night. "


    "At that time, Captain fan Qiang, Centurion Liu Li and Centurion fan Xi were there. Besides, there were about ten of our brothers."


    "Fan Xiaowei''s mouth is hardware. He wants to be the best."


    "Later, someone raised the price."


    "With the support of Liu Baifu and others, fan Xiaowei won the chance to spend the Spring Festival with Qingyou girl at the price of 25 gold. But in the end, Chang Le Lou repented, saying that he would have to pass the literary grace level even if he had worked out 25 gold medals. "


    "General, this is bullying us!"


    "If you want to compete for literary talent, you should say it early. We just don''t participate. Not at first, but now. "


    The soldier looked indignant and said, "general, we have been bullied. You have to do justice to the soldiers in our army."


    Zhang Xiu got up and said, "let''s go and have a look at Changle building."


    The soldier was overjoyed at the speech.


    Xu Shu advised: "Lord, I''m afraid it''s disgraceful of you to go in person. Not as good as that. Let the humble go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "I want to see who dares to bully my soldiers in this general''s territory?"


    When Xu Shu heard the words, he did not persuade any more.


    When Zhang Xiu came out of the county government, she arranged for the soldiers to go to the barracks and asked Gan Ning to dispatch 300 soldiers to the Changle building.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived, Gan Ning had just arrived.


    Gan Ning hurried forward and said: "Lord, what happened?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "our people are bullied."


    When Gan Ning heard this, he rolled up his sleeve and gritted his teeth and said, "who dares to bully our people and live impatiently?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll know in a moment."


    Finish saying, Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, then stride to Chang Le Lou. After a while, he entered the hall. At the moment, the hall was in a mess, tables, chairs, benches and so on were damaged.


    Fan Qiang, Liu Li and others were still standing, with more than a dozen wounded soldiers lying on the ground.


    "General!"


    Fan Qiang, Liu Li and others saluted.


    Although they were standing, they also had bruises and bruises.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and saw the guard of Changle building. She said in a deep voice, "who is the manager of Changle building?"


    "I am!"


    At this time, a thin middle-aged man came. He came to Zhang Xiu and said, "I''ll meet general Zhang in Ningyuan. General Zhang, your soldiers are too rude and unreasonable. As soon as they come up, they smash up. I''ll... "


    Zhang Xiu cold face, looking at the rather source of haw crooked, a slap on the fan out.


    "Ah


    A loud slap reverberated in the hall.


    Ning yuan was stunned. After a long time, he came back to himself and said, "General Zhang, you are so unreasonable. You are so..."


    "Pa!"


    Another slap in the face.


    Ning yuan both sides of the face was slapped, brain some confused. He was thin and weak. After two slaps, he fell to the ground, and his eyes were almost full of stars.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Ning Yuan who falls to the ground and coldly says: "I didn''t ask you, just shut your dog''s mouth!"


    "Yes! Yes


    Ning yuan nodded one after another.


    At the moment, a touch of panic appeared on his face.


    Zhang Xiu is too overbearing.


    However, Ning yuan did not dare to speak casually any more and stood up honestly.


    Zhang Xiu looked at fan Qiang and asked, "fan Qiang, tell me what happened. If you''re right, Ben will support you. But if you make a mistake first, Ben will break your third leg, so that you don''t want to find a woman in your life. "


    Fan Qiang raised his head and said, "general, after listening to your instruction, we always abide by the rules. It''s Ningyuan who doesn''t abide by the rules."


    "At the beginning, Ning Yuan said that if Qingyou came out of the cabinet today, the one with the highest price would get it."


    "At the end of the day, twenty-five gold coins will be put out to beat the crowd."


    "But Ning yuan turned back and said that he respected Qing you. He said that Qing you had to pass the examination for literary talent. It''s obviously bullying us. You don''t say it at the beginning, and we''ll talk about it when we''re done. "


    "What a bully!"


    Fan Qiang said: "Mo Jiang can''t help it, so he conflicts with Ning yuan theory, and then with the guards of Changle building. The guards of Changle building have injured more than ten of our brothers. Their people are not simple. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ning yuan and said, "tell me, is this the case?"


    Ning Yuan said: "General Zhang, this is Qingyou''s idea, not my idea. Although the girl of Changle building is a member of Changle building, she also has to pay attention to her love. Do you want me to


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "when you become a whore, you still want to set up a memorial archway. It''s very good."


    "My people are right about that.""Tell me, what are you going to do about it?"


    Zhang Xiu strong said: "today''s thing happened, don''t give a statement, maybe back a say, became my Zhang Xiu soldiers, bullying the weak, unscrupulous."


    Ning yuan frowned tightly, also thinking about how to do?


    Can Zhen sile give him a moment''s consideration


    "Hebei Zhen family?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "the Zhen family is in Hebei Province, but when they come to the general''s site, can they break the rules? There is no need to talk about this. If you don''t give me an explanation, Changle building will be sealed up immediately. "


    Brush!


    Ningyuan''s face changed greatly.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu would be so strong.


    Ning yuan''s original intention was to draw on Zhang Xiu''s more important people, such as Gan Ning and Huang Zhao, by virtue of Qing you''s going out of the cabinet. However, he didn''t expect that there was only one fan Qiang.


    At the beginning, Ning yuan didn''t plan to stop him, but after fan Qiang kept increasing the price, he sent someone to investigate fan Qiang and learned that fan Qiang was just an ordinary captain, so he changed his mind.


    Did not expect a small thing, Zhang Xiu are attracted.


    Ning yuan took a deep breath and asked, "General Zhang, what do you think you need to do to calm this matter down?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "first, you would rather apologize to the general''s soldiers at the gate of Changle building; second, you should compensate Yiying for the loss. After all, my soldiers were injured; third, you should let Qingyou spend the night with fan Qiang for free."


    Would rather at this moment, the heart is bleeding.


    This is too cruel.


    But he did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s reaction was so big that he would personally support the soldiers. After much deliberation, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "everything is up to General Zhang."


    Fan Qiang, Liu Li and others are even more excited.


    Fan Qiang stood up and said: "general, people don''t look up to the end general, and the end general will not be hot faced and cold buttocks. Green you or green you, at the end will not. There are many women with two legs


    "Are you sure?"


    On hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked up at fan Qiang.


    This kid has guts.


    Fan Qiang said: "the end will be determined!"


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand and patted fan Qiang on the shoulder, praising the way: "worthy of the general''s soldiers, have backbone!"


    Fan Qiang grinned when he heard the speech.


    It''s worth the praise of Zhang Xiu!


    Ning yuan at the moment, also a little surprised. At this time, there was a little loss in his heart. He knew that fan Qiang had such backbone, so it was a good choice to make friends with Qingyou.


    What a pity!


    But I''m blind.


    Ning yuan did not dare to play tricks, personally at the gate of Changle building, apologized to fan Qiang and others, and then made compensation one by one.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ning yuan and said, "Ning yuan, under the rule of our general, do business steadfastly. Don''t go astray. Otherwise, your business won''t grow. Even the Zhen family''s industry doesn''t work. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Ning yuan responded respectfully.


    "Gone!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve blows, she leaves with fan Qiang, Liu Li, and Gan Ning''s soldiers.

 Chapter 63

    After the changlelou incident, Zhang Xiu was at leisure.


    He spent most of his time training in the barracks. Although Gan Ning was in charge of the army, Zhang Xiu was not idle. She still put forward some training methods of later generations into the army to enhance the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.


    It was hot in June and July, but the scorching summer could not stop Zhang Xiu''s determination to train.


    The combat effectiveness of the army is fundamental.


    Without the army, everything was a dream.


    This is what Zhang Xiu pays most attention to.


    Time flies into August.


    People in Yuyang county are busy harvesting grain. This year, the weather is good, the weather is good, and there is no war in Yuyang County, so the people can have a good harvest.


    After two months of training, Zhang Xiu''s army has been transformed.


    Officers and men in the army are like envoys.


    At the same time, weapons were innovated.


    Today, the army has been equipped with Qin crossbows, and other crossbows have also been adjusted. Their range and shooting power have been greatly improved.


    The army as a whole has made great progress in strength.


    Barracks, big accounts of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the training situation handed over, and her face showed a happy look.


    Gan Ning stood at the bottom and said: "Lord, the soldiers have been reorganized. When shall we attack Wan county? "


    In Ganning''s heart, he can''t wait to fight.


    Zhang Xiu gently smile, said: "don''t worry, at most another half a month, will go north.". Now I''m busy harvesting grain. When all the grain is collected, I''ll leave for the north. "


    Gan Ning''s spirit was boosted and he said: "Lord, with our strength, it''s not a difficult thing to win Wan county. According to the general''s opinion, he first sent people to Wan county and ordered Wei Yan to surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "there''s no need, because Wei Yan can''t surrender."


    Wei Yan is a veteran and Liu Biao''s man.


    Such people will not surrender.


    And Wei Yan has Liu Biao as the backing, strength may not be weak, Zhang Xiu will not underestimate.


    "Newspaper!"


    When the curtain of the barracks was lifted, a soldier entered and reported: "general, the people of the Huang family have come to convey a message that Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan will leave Yuyang county and return to Xiangyang early in the morning."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and waved her hand.


    After the soldiers retreated, Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and said, "xingba, continue to train the soldiers and be ready to send troops."


    "Here it is


    When Gan Ning answered the question, he left.


    Zhang Xiu changed her regular clothes and went straight to Huang''s home.


    He spent most of his time training soldiers in the barracks. Secondly, he went to Huang''s home every three or five times, either to find Mr. pound, or to find Huang Yueying, mainly to find Huang Yueying.


    After all, he is after Huang Yueying.


    Huang Chengyan sees in the eye, also opens one eye to close one eye, does not mix blindly.


    Zhang Xiu arrived and entered directly without notice.


    When he entered the backyard, Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong were packing up. Most of Huang Chengyan''s salutes were drawings of instruments and some unfinished instruments. Most of his salutes were bamboo slips and books, which he often read.


    They have their own hobbies.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the piles of bamboo slips moved out by Pang Degong. Her head was big for a while. There are not many words on the bamboo slips, which occupy too much space. In order to change this situation, Zhang Xiu has told Huang Chengyan the general situation of papermaking and asked Huang Chengyan to start.


    But now in Yuyang County, equipment is insufficient, resources are not enough, can not start.


    Zhang Xiu once again reminded: "Mr. Huang, after you return to Xiangyang, you can make paper again according to the idea I provided. As long as the paper is successful, it can replace the current Cai Lun paper, and the new paper will surely be popular all over the world. "


    Huang Chengyan said, "I understand."


    Today''s paper is very rough, not smooth and easy to dip ink, few people use paper to copy.


    If you don''t know Zhang Xiu before, Zhang Xiu said to improve papermaking, Huang Chengyan won''t believe it. It can be seen that when he realized Zhang Xiu''s wonderful ideas, especially that every scheme of Zhang Xiu was feasible, he had no doubt.


    Just follow Zhang Xiu''s instructions.


    After Pang Dexiu returned to Xiangyang society, I''m afraid Liu zhengse would blame you. In my opinion, you might as well stay in Yuyang county. In Yuyang County, you can also preach and teach. "


    Pang Degong stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a smile, "Why are you afraid of Liu Biao? It''s my private business to accept apprentices. Liu Biao can''t manage it. You don''t have to worry about me. Now you are in Yuyang county. It seems that you have a foothold, but your foundation is not stable. I hope you can be down-to-earth and try to get married as soon as possible. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "don''t worry, teacher. I will live up to your high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu chatted with Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan happily. From time to time, Huang Yueying chimed in.Time flies and it''s evening.


    After having dinner at Huang''s house, Zhang Xiu returned to the county government to have a rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu arrived at Huang''s home early, and he wanted to send Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan away in person. Together with Huang Yueying, Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying took the two old people to Yuyang county''s south gate.


    After the carriage left, Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Yueying and said, "Yueying, I''ll go north to Wan County in a while. I''ll take good care of myself when I''m not in Yuyang county. Do you understand?"


    "I see."


    Huang Yueying nodded.


    After a pause, Huang Yueying said, "brother Jiang Ping, follow me to the workshop. I have something for you."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what is it?"


    Huang Yueying said, "you''ll know when you go."


    Zhang Xiu nods and goes back to the city with Huang Yueying. Entering the craftsman''s workshop, Huang Yueying takes Zhang Xiu to her foundry, takes out a sword, hands it to Zhang Xiu, and says, "this is for you!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "you made it?"


    Huang Yueying shook her head and said, "it''s me and the craftsmen."


    Zhang Xiu took it over, holding the scabbard in her left hand and the handle in her right hand. With the sound of "Qiang", the blade came out of its sheath, shining with cold light.


    When all the blades came out of the scabbard, Zhang Xiu held the sword in her hand and waved it twice, with a satisfied look on her face. This sword, no matter in length or weight, fits him very well.


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu opened her mouth again and again, very happy.


    Huang Yueying said: "the key to a sword lies in its sharpness and toughness. Take an ordinary sword and try to cut it


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She held a sword in her left and right hands and chopped at each other.


    "Dang!"


    The sound is harsh when weapons strike.


    At the next moment, Zhang Xiu''s eyes widened.


    The sword forged by Huang Yueying has no gap on the blade after impact. However, the blade of an ordinary sword left a gap of more than half an inch. This is the case that Zhang Xiu doesn''t have nearly all his strength. If he does all his strength, it will be enough to cut this ordinary sword.


    The sword forged by Huang Yueying can be called a famous sword.


    "Good sword, good sword!"


    Zhang Xiu praised: "Yueying, the sword you forged is really wonderful."


    Huang Yueying said, "is it really so good?"


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu looked excited and said, "if this kind of sword can be made in batches, it will be better."


    Huang Yueying shook her head and said, "I''m afraid it''s impossible, because this sword was made by me and the craftsmen after many experiments. It is not clear whether it is the heat, the degree of quenching, or the quality of water. This sword was made unintentionally. "


    It''s a pity for Zhang Xiu.


    If it can be cast in batches, the combat effectiveness of his soldiers will be improved.


    However, he was glad to get a magic weapon. For a general, a good weapon is an extra life.


    Huang Yueying said, "this sword has no name. Please give it a name."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "it''s called Longquan sword, which is similar to Longyuan sword. I''d like to see if it''s the Longyuan sword or the Longquan sword. "


    Later, Longyuan sword is Longquan sword.


    Because of avoiding Li Yuan''s taboo, Longyuan sword was renamed Longquan sword. But now there is no such saying as Longquan sword, so Zhang Xiu directly uses the name of Longquan sword.


    Huang Yueying didn''t understand this. When she heard Zhang Xiu''s words, she was also excited and said, "if the Longquan sword can surpass the Longyuan sword, I will live in vain."


    As a weapon maker, Huang Yueying also has ambition to surpass the sages.


    Zhang Xiu said: "there is a chance!"


    With the sword in its sheath, Zhang Xiu hugs Huang Yueying. Her mouth is close to Huang Yueying''s ear and she says in a soft voice, "Yueying, thank you."


    Warm breath, straight to the earlobe.


    Huang Yueying was hugged by Zhang Xiu for the first time. In a flash, her face turned red with shame and her eyes were watery. Her brain, there was a moment of blank, a heart beating up, the whole person is a little absent-minded.


    It took her a long time to recover.


    Huang Yueying stepped back from Zhang Xiu and ran away as if she were flying.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Huang Yueying''s disappearing figure with a confident smile in her mouth.


    Huang Yueying, it''s Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 64

    After the beginning of autumn, the weather turns cool.


    Although it is still hot during the day, it begins to cool down at night. Especially after an autumn rain, the weather is much cooler.


    September 3, barracks, school yard.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the stage with his helmet on top, Longquan sword hanging on his waist and long boots on his feet. His eyes swept over the array of 6000 elite soldiers, and his eyes flashed a look of satisfaction.


    These 6000 soldiers are all the soldiers going north this time. Although Zhang Xiu went north to Wan County, she left some soldiers for Xu Shu to command, so as to ensure the safety of Yuyang county.


    After all, Yuyang county is the foundation.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "my sons, when I was going south to negotiate with Liu Biao, I had reached an agreement. Liu Biao ceded the area to the north of Yuyang county to the general. "


    "But just a month ago, Liu Biao arranged Wei Yan to be the magistrate of Wan County, and also dispatched many confidants to be the magistrate of various places in the north of Yuyang county."


    "The intention is to isolate the general."


    "The intention is to suppress us."


    "Liu Biao''s betrayal and treachery, can you bear it?"


    Zhang Xiu asked aloud.


    "I can''t bear it!"


    Gan Ning and Huang Zhaoqi answered.


    The two men began to shout, and the soldiers under them all cried out in unison.


    The morale of the army rose with the shouting of the soldiers. The reason why Zhang Xiu wants to lecture is to boost the morale and morale of the soldiers in the army.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down. When the shouting subsided, she said again, "Liu Biao is clever. He thinks that if he arranges people in Wan County, he can stop us from going north. This is self deception."


    "Three months ago, Cai Mao led his troops to pursue us. He would have captured Cai Mao alive."


    "Three months ago, wenpin stopped our general from going south to Xiangyang. We captured wenpin alive."


    "Two months ago, Gong Du and Liu Bi came here to kill Gong and Liu in Yuyang county"


    Zhang Xiu raised her voice and roared, "no matter who is blocking our way, it''s just a word, kill! Any enemy in front of us can be killed. God block kill God, Buddha block kill Buddha, kill


    "Kill


    "Kill


    "Kill


    Soldiers in the army, shout together.


    Every soldier was inspired by Zhang Xiu. In fact, the more lawless and powerful Zhang Xiu was, the more rebellious and fierce his soldiers were.


    This is a big army and a big nest.


    Zhang Xiu is strong, not afraid of death, dare to fight, dare to kill, his soldiers do not recognize counsels, can dare to fight and dare to kill.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu saw that the fire had arrived, so she didn''t say much and gave the order to send troops.


    The army moved out of the city quickly.


    Zhang Xiu sent out troops on a large scale, and the news couldn''t be hidden. Wei Yan''an put in the sentinel of Wan County, and immediately spread the news. He first arrived in Wan County, and then spread the news to Wei Yan''s desk.


    Wan County, county government, study.


    Wei Yan opened the letter and saw the news of Zhang Xiu''s sending troops. His eyes flashed a light and murmured: "finally


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes.


    What''s more, it''s fighting spirit.


    He had been in Wan County for more than two months. In these two months, Wei Yan carried out drastic reform in Wan County, expelling the forces that disobeyed him and supporting his supporters.


    Wan county is one piece of iron.


    What Wei Yan did was to gather strength and resist Zhang Xiu. In Wei Yan''s heart, he not only wants to block Zhang Xiu''s attack, but also to defeat Zhang Xiu and prove his ability.


    Everyone in Jingzhou is afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    He is not afraid. He wants to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    This is his wild hope.


    Wei Yanji started the letter in his hand. After a little thought, he ordered: "come, call Deng Ning to see you."


    "Here"


    the servant at the door gets the order, and immediately sends the order.


    Dunning was born in the Deng family.


    He is the direct lineage of the Deng family. In the past, when Zhang Xiu led the army into Xinye and killed the Deng family, Deng Ning was playing in other places.


    That''s exactly how I got away with it.


    When Dunning returned to Nanyang County, he learned that his family had been destroyed. Dunning wanted revenge, but there was no way. Just at this time, Wei Yan arrived in Wan county and arranged to stop Zhang Xiu.


    In order to revenge, Deng Ning took the initiative to go to Wei Yan and worked for Wei Yan.


    After all, Dunning was born of a big family, with insight and ability. He sorted out all the government affairs of Wan County in an orderly way. Finally, he was appointed as the county magistrate of Wan County by Wei Yan.


    It wasn''t long before Dunning entered.


    Deng ningnian is nearly 30 years old. He is tall, elegant and handsome. Just narrow eyes slightly narrowed, showing a trace of evil.


    There was hatred in his eyes.


    He hates Zhang Xiu.


    If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu, he would not have lost his family, so he wanted to kill Zhang Xiu for revenge."I''ll see you in your humble position!"


    When Dunning stands still, salute respectfully.


    Wei Yan nodded slightly and said, "I just got the news that Zhang Xiu is going north to Wan county."


    As soon as Dunning''s spirit was boosted, he immediately said, "my Lord, please fight for your humble position. I hope to follow the adults and help them defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    But Wei Yan shook his head and refused: "no, you stay in Wan county."


    "Why?" said Dunning in a deep voice


    Wei Yan looked calm and explained: "Zhang Xiu, who defeated Cai Mao first, then captured wenpin, and killed Gong Du and Liu PI, is not an easy match. We must ensure the absolute safety of the rear."


    "This time, I will be stationed in Wuji mountain on the border of Wan county. I will occupy a certain place, but the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. Anything can happen."


    "Even, I may not be able to defend Wuji mountain, so I have to retreat to the county seat."


    "Of course, it''s all hypothetical."


    "I also hope to defeat Zhang Xiu and win this battle."


    Wei Yan showed a faint smile on his face and said: "I promise you that if I defeat Zhang Xiu, whether Zhang Xiu is alive or dead, I will bring him to you and let you handle him."


    In Wei Yan''s calculation, he must let Dunning stay.


    Deng Ning and Zhang Xiu have a deep blood feud. In order to let Wei Yan defeat Zhang Xiu, Deng Ning must go all out in the rear.


    Wei Yan is not at ease with others.


    After hearing Wei Yan''s words, Dunning didn''t know what to say for a moment. He opened his mouth and still wanted to go to the battlefield, but before he spoke, he was interrupted by Wei Yan.


    Wei Yan once again said, "dunning, although the officials in Wan county are in peace and self-discipline, once they leave, the situation may change. You are my official''s confidant. If you take charge of Wan County, take good care of everything in Wan County for me, and ensure the supply of food, grass and equipment, I can rest assured. "


    "Yes, I''ll do it!"


    In the end, Dunning should take the lead.


    Although he was eager to go to the battlefield, Wei Yan ordered that he could only respond.


    Moreover, Wei Yan promised that no matter whether Zhang Xiu was alive or dead, he would bring people to him. If Zhang Xiu is alive, he will make Zhang Xiu''s life worse than death. If Zhang Xiu is dead, he will let her die without a whole body.


    Wei Yan was relieved to see Deng Ning''s response and said, "everything in Wan county will be taken care of by you. In this battle, I will take 5000 elite soldiers, and the rest will be under your control. "


    "Here it is


    Dunning responded again.


    Wei Yan waved his hand and asked Dunning to step down.


    After arranging things, Wei Yan put on his armor, hung his sword on his waist, and went straight to the barracks. He mobilized 5000 elite soldiers, took equipment, food and grass, and quickly left the county and went straight to Wuji mountain on the border of Wan county.


    Wuji mountain is located at the junction of Yuyang county and WAN county.


    There is no precipitous terrain here, and there is no place where ambush can be easily arranged, but it is easier to defend than to attack.


    At the foot of Wuji mountain, on both sides of the official road to Yuyang County, there are two peaks. The two peaks lie on both sides of the official road, and they are horns of each other with Wuji mountain.


    After Wei Yan arrived at Wuji mountain, his camp was stationed at the foot of Wuji mountain, and two more armies were arranged, each stationed on the peak.


    In this way, they echo each other.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, if Zhang Xiu wanted to attack two peaks, Wei Yan could rescue him at any time. If Zhang Xiu wants to attack Wei Yan''s camp at the foot of Wuji mountain, the troops on the two peaks can also help Zhang Xiu.


    This is the terrain of Wuji mountain.

 Chapter 65

    Zhang Xiu took 6000 soldiers to the north and slowed down the March when she was approaching the border of Yuyang county.


    There''s no other reason. There''s not enough information.


    If you want to win in the war, you need not only enough strength, but also enough intelligence.


    This is to know yourself and the other.


    Although Zhang Xiu has been concerned about the situation in Wan County, he still does not know Wei Yan''s response after he dispatched troops. This is what Zhang Xiu wants to find out. In the information Zhang Xiu got from Xiangyang, Wei Yan was rebellious and extremely proud.


    When such a person gets the news of his going north, he is most likely to lead the troops to attack, not to defend passively.


    So, Zhang Xiu is waiting for news.


    Today, the speed of driving is only 20 Li in a day, which is extremely slow.


    "Da! Dada


    Suddenly, the sound of horse''s hooves came from the front army.


    A sentry galloped along the official road. All the way, the marching soldiers gave way and let the sentry run. Time is not long, sentry came to Zhang Xiu''s side, rolled off the horse, Baoquan way: "general, Wei Yan sent troops."


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said, "where did Wei Yan lead his troops?"


    The sentinel said: "there are about 5000 elite soldiers under Wei Yan''s command. Now they are stationed in Wuji mountain at the junction of Yuyang county and WAN county. In addition, Wei Yan also took the lead in occupying the two peaks near Wuji mountain, forming a corner situation. "


    "Take the topographic map!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When he listened to the sentry, he had no intuitive impression. He had to use a map to make it clear.


    The sentry took out the topographic map, handed it to Zhang Xiu, and continued: "general, Wei Yan''s base camp is at the foot of Wuji mountain. How many soldiers are stationed on the two peaks outside Wuji mountain is unknown. It is roughly estimated that there will not be more than 800 people on each peak. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, did not speak much, just quietly looking at the map of Wuji mountain.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu said: "Gan Ning!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Gan Ning rode up and stood beside Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiushen pointed to the map and made a general introduction, then ordered: "there are two peaks in the East and West outside Wuji mountain, on which Wei Yan''s soldiers are stationed. You lead the fifty elite riders, take a shortcut to the road, and get to the East peak. When you arrive, you wait for the opportunity. You don''t have to ask for instructions. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning''s face was full of excitement.


    I''m ready to fight.


    Ganning turned his horse''s head, went to draw fifty cavalry, and then left first.


    After Gan Ning left, Zhang Xiu went on.


    Feel the situation of Wuji mountain, know the layout of Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu no longer slowly on the road, but ordered full speed forward. When the army led by Zhang Xiu was less than 20 li away from Wuji mountain, the news had spread to Wei Yan.


    Wei Yan didn''t wait to die. He directly transferred 800 elite soldiers from the army and left the camp quickly.


    This time, he''s going to harass.


    Zhang Xiu''s army came from a long distance. It was a tired division, and its combat effectiveness was insufficient. In particular, Wei Yan estimated the arrival time of Zhang Xiu''s army, which will probably arrive around Shenshi in the afternoon.


    This time is not conducive to strong attack.


    What Zhang Xiu can do is camp and rest.


    This is Wei Yan''s judgment.


    So Wei Yan led 800 elite soldiers to attack. When he left Wuji mountain, close to the border of Wan County, he took his soldiers to lurk in the forest, quietly waiting for the news of Zhang Xiu''s arrival.


    Time, little by little.


    In the afternoon, a sentinel came back to Wei Yan and reported: "general, Zhang Xiu''s army has stopped three miles to the southwest of our country and is preparing to camp."


    "It''s time to camp!"


    Wei Yan''s eyes were full of excitement.


    Everything is as he expected.


    No longer hesitating, Wei Yan immediately took 800 soldiers out of the forest and rushed to Zhang Xiu''s camp. The 800 elite soldiers under his command are all those who dare to fight and kill. They have excellent physical fitness.


    Three miles. It''s a short distance.


    Even if Zhang Xiu arranged for soldiers to watch around, but within such a short distance, the speed of the sentinel who found out and rushed back to report was not much faster than Wei Yan.


    When the sentinel reports the news to Zhang Xiu, Wei Yan arrives immediately.


    Wei Yan was close to Zhang Xiu''s camp. He didn''t say much, so he ordered: "kill!"


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Eight hundred soldiers, fast charge.


    Zhang Xiu does not have any confusion, although he does not know Wei Yanlai attack routine, but to defend is more than enough. Even if Zhang xiudang mobilized archers, spearmen were on the defensive outside.


    The troops lined up and the camp was in order.


    The whole army, there was no panic.


    But the soldiers who had camped stopped, no longer camped, and took up arms to fight.


    After Zhang Xiu arranges the army''s defense, she picks up the golden spear and looks at Wei Yan.He recognized Wei Yan at a glance.


    Zhang Xiu patted the horse''s back, took the gun, and yelled: "Wei Yan, there''s a way in heaven. If you don''t go, there''s no way in hell. You come in. You want to attack the camp, there''s no way. "


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves are swift, and Zhang Xiu is like an arrow from the string.


    He went straight to Wei Yan.


    See Zhang Xiu kill, Wei Yan do not hide, the sword across the chest, is also to meet up. He raised his head and said in a loud voice, "I''d like to see what you can do with Zhang Xiu."


    The two men were walking towards each other and met in a flash.


    Zhang Xiu in the hands of a long gun swing, tiger head golden gun swept out. With the roaring sound of a long gun, Wei Yan was in front of him in an instant.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Wei Yan was not impatient, he raised his sword to block.


    "Dang!"


    The spear and the sword hit each other.


    Wei Yan took off the power of his spear with a knife. When the sword turned around, he cut it in the air.


    Sharp blade, fierce.


    When Wei Yan went to the battlefield, he was desperate. His offensive was fierce and he was not afraid of death. His moves were all desperate, but few defensive.


    Just like this, Wei Yan won many times.


    Because of the fighting on the battlefield, few people can be like him. He has excellent martial arts and is not afraid of death. Such a person is extremely terrible.


    Unfortunately, Wei Yan met Zhang Xiu.


    In the face of Wei Yan''s knife, Zhang Xiu''s eyes are clear, without the slightest confusion. When the blade fell, less than a foot away from him, Zhang Xiu shook his horse''s reins and jumped his horse. He just avoided Wei yanshizai''s knife.


    The blade of Wei Yan falls, and the move is old.


    "Here''s the chance!"


    In front of Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the golden spear of tiger''s head in her hand stabbed out like lightning.


    "Whew!"


    The tip of the gun vibrates with great speed.


    The twinkling cold light in the air went straight to Wei Yan''s chest.


    Wei Yan''s pupil shrinks. It''s a surprise. I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would easily avoid the knife he had to get. At the moment when the spear came, Wei Yan quickly drew back the knife.


    Even if the move is old, when the spear is close to his chest, his sword has been retracted and crossed the chest.


    The next moment, Wei Yan''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s golden spear didn''t pierce his chest.


    His knife blocked the air.


    "No, it''s a false move!"


    Wei Yan suddenly leaned back to avoid. But without waiting for him to move, the sharp point of the gun penetrated into Wei Yan''s left shoulder.


    "Poof!"


    The tip of the gun spattered with blood.


    Wei Yan snorted, and his face showed pain, but he did not see the slightest panic. He immediately staggered his horses to avoid Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    He glanced at the wound on his left shoulder, and Zhang Xiu''s shot was so deep that it pierced the bone. After the injury to his left shoulder, he only used his right hand to carry the knife. His strength and strain were not enough, so he could no longer fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Wei Yan crashed and ordered: "withdraw!"


    With Wei Yan''s order, the soldiers who attacked the camp retreated as fast as the tide.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the hundreds of soldiers who left. After thinking about it, she didn''t order to pursue them.


    Don''t chase the poor!


    What if Wei Yan came to harass him and deliberately lured him to attack?


    Once pursued, it will fall into the trap.


    Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to clean the battlefield, so she continued to build barracks, ready to camp here.

 Chapter 66

    The two peaks outside Wuji mountain, one east and one west, stand on both sides of the official road. It is said that they are peaks, but in fact they are not very different from the hillsides, because they are neither high nor steep. They can climb mountains from all directions.


    Ganning with 50 elite riders quietly arrived at the foot of Dongfeng mountain. He hid in the forest, looked at the withering forest, left 20 soldiers to watch the horses, and led the remaining 30 people to the East peak.


    After a while, he entered the mountain forest.


    "Be careful. You can''t make a sound under any circumstances, you know?"


    Entering the mountain forest, Gan Ning reminds me again.


    "I know!"


    All the soldiers nodded.


    Ganning hand a move, then led people to quickly go up the mountain.


    Few people have the advantage of few people, action is cheap, not easy to be found. Especially when Gan Ning walked up the mountain, every time he passed a certain distance, he left a soldier hiding in the same place, paying attention to the movement around him.


    Once there is any wind and grass on the mountain, he can get the news in the shortest time, and then make a response.


    Nearly to the top of the mountain, Ganning found the whereabouts of a Wei Yan soldier. He took people, quietly followed, and finally found the location of Wei Yan soldiers.


    This is near the top of the mountain.


    In this area, the terrain is flat, but also uneven, with trees all over the area, surrounded by countless Artemisia and leaves.


    A tent, spread on the ground.


    Around the tent, there are soldiers patrolling, three steps for one post, five steps for one sentry, and the layout is very strict.


    Now there is no war, and the soldiers on patrol are not relaxed, which shows that their military discipline is strict.


    Ganning can''t get close, so he can only look at it in the dark. He went through all the tents and made a rough estimate. The number of soldiers stationed on the mountain is about 800.


    This number is not much different from the number of soldiers estimated by the sentinel. After all, with fewer soldiers, we can''t guard the mountain peak. With more people stationed, Wei Yan''s troops will be reduced.


    Eight hundred, no more, no less.


    "With these 800 soldiers stationed, it''s not easy to capture Dongfeng head-on."


    Gan Ning narrowed his eyes, very unwilling.


    He took the soldiers to Dongfeng. Although the main purpose of his coming was to inquire about information, he didn''t want to just inquire about information and wanted to make contributions.


    "Go, look around."


    Gan Ning whispered orders, with his soldiers quietly retreat.


    Leaving the top of the mountain, Ganning went around the peak and spent nearly an hour to find out the situation.


    East peak, no water.


    All the water resources have to be supplied by the camp of Weiyan in Wuji mountain.


    In addition, there are trees all over the mountain, and most of them are pines and cypresses. Now in early autumn, the leaves wither and fall densely on the ground, making the ground seem like a carpet.


    Gan Ning stepped on the pine needles and leaves on the ground, went down the mountain to the hiding place, and made a quick calculation in his heart.


    Now that I''m here, I can''t come back empty handed. I have to make some big noise.


    Gan Ning looked at the dense woods and suddenly had a plan in mind. With a smile on his lips, he looked at the soldiers he had brought and asked, "who among you has a flare?"


    "I have it!"


    One of the soldiers answered.


    "So do I, general."


    "I brought it."


    ¡­¡­


    The rest of the soldiers answered one after another.


    Every one of them has a fire fold. After all, it''s a must in the wild. In order to make a fire, we must have a fire fold.


    Gan Ning said with a smile, "OK, it''s easy to do."


    He waved and surrounded everyone. Gan Ning''s eyes swept the crowd and said in a deep voice, "although we are here to inquire about the news, we can''t go back empty handed, right?"


    The soldiers all nodded.


    They understand Gan Ning''s nature and know that this time, they will not go back empty handed.


    There was a flash of light in Gan Ning''s eyes and a fierce look on his face. He solemnly said, "I think it''s not advisable to attack Dongfeng by force. We are not enough people to plug our teeth. "


    "The only way is by fire!"


    "On the East peak, there are dense pine and cypress forests, and the ground is covered with leaves. Now the autumn air is crisp, the fallen leaves are dry, and the Artemisia grass is also dried in the sun, which is very easy to ignite. "


    "As long as we light a fire in the mountains, Dongfeng will turn into a sea of fire. The soldiers on the mountain will surely go down the mountain when they are caught in a sea of fire. We will wait at the foot of the mountain and kill the soldiers who go down the mountain. "


    "Wei Yan thought that if he controlled the East and West peaks, he would be able to compete with Wuji mountain and keep Wuji mountain, but he ignored the special environment of the East peak."


    "This time, let him suffer a big loss."


    Gan Ning clenched his fist and waved it fiercely in the air, which made his face look better.


    "The general is wise!"The soldiers were excited when they heard the words and praised them.


    Gan Ning big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "the time of action, put in the evening.". After dark, it''s good for action and it''s good for us to retreat. Now they all stay here honestly and act immediately after dark. "


    "Here it is


    All the soldiers should go down together.


    ¡­¡­


    After Wei Yan was injured, he led the troops to evacuate quickly.


    After three li''s withdrawal, he found that there were no pursuers in the rear, so he ordered to stop.


    The army rested and counted the losses.


    He bandaged the wound himself.


    Zhang Xiu''s shot really penetrated into his left shoulder and bone, injuring his bones. One hundred days after the injury, it is impossible for him to recover completely from the shoulder injury in a short time.


    "Cruel Zhang Xiu."


    Wei Yan is biting his teeth and suffering from pain.


    When he finished dressing the wound, he sat quietly and thought about what to do next. After a short time, a small school came to Wei Yan and saluted him.


    Huang Ben, a famous schoolmaster, respectfully reported: "my Lord, we attacked Zhang Xiu''s camp, killing 68 soldiers and injuring 98. The rest of the soldiers, it''s no big deal. "


    "Let the soldiers rest in place!"


    Wei asked.


    He didn''t care about the loss of 68 people. After all, the loss was small.


    "Here it is


    Huang Ben answered, and immediately sent the order.


    Wei Yan looked at the wound of his left shoulder and saw that there was dark red blood in the wound. His eyes were full of reluctance. If he returns to Wuji mountain now, how can he face the soldiers in the army?


    He doesn''t want to retreat!


    Wei Yan sat with a sudden plan and immediately said, "Huang Ben!"


    "Yes


    When Huang Ben heard Wei Yan''s words, he immediately came over and said, "what''s your order?"


    Wei Yan said: "the order goes down to find a secret place, and all the soldiers go to rest. After dark, we touch Zhang Xiu''s camp and harass it again. "


    Huang Ben raised his eyebrows and said with some worry: "do you want to harass me, my lord?"


    The previous attack failed.


    What''s the point of harassing again?


    Wei Yan big sleeve a whisk, no doubt way: "when the previous harassment, Zhang Xiu was on guard, so we failed. Now we retreat, and then return to harass, Zhang Xiu must not expect. Our attack at night is to make Zhang Xiu''s soldiers unable to have a good rest. It doesn''t involve fighting. You don''t have to worry about it. "


    "Here it is


    After hearing Wei Yan''s words, Huang Ben was also relieved. After all, if there is no war, there will be no danger. He immediately arranged for a team of sentinels to go around looking for hiding places, ready to hide.

 Chapter 67

    In the evening of September, the waning moon is like a hook.


    Zhang Xiu''s camp is well arranged. There are three steps, one post and five steps, one sentry in the camp.


    Zhang Xiuzheng is reading a book.


    Now that the army is stationed, there is not much to do. After all, the generals in the army are responsible for everything in the army. He has few things in his hands when he apportions them one by one.


    Flickering light.


    After reading the book for half an hour, Zhang Xiu felt a little tired and went to have a rest early.


    In the barracks, everything is quiet.


    On the official road outside the barracks, Wei Yan led the soldiers and approached quietly. Two hundred paces from the camp, he ordered the soldiers to stop and said, "blow the horn and let the soldiers shout."


    "Here it is


    Huang Ben''s order, order immediately.


    "Woo! Woo


    Silent night, the horn suddenly sounded, breaking the night''s quiet.


    "Kill


    "Kill!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, shouts were heard outside the barracks.


    Nearly 800 soldiers, all shouting.


    The sound of bugles and shouts came to the barracks one after another. The soldiers on patrol rushed to the gate of the barracks to gather, and the soldiers were ready to fight out to prevent the barracks from being attacked.


    Zhang Xiu also came out quickly.


    When he goes to bed, he sleeps in his own clothes. As soon as I heard the sound outside the camp, I woke up and ran out with a golden gun.


    But when he arrived at the gate of the camp, he found that there was no one outside the camp except for the sound of horn and cry.


    Obviously, it''s a way to harass.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, staring at the direction of the voice outside the camp. Through the prediction of the voice, he predicted that Wei Yan''s direction should be 200 steps away.


    At this distance, archers cannot attack.


    Although it can be attacked with a catapult, Wei Yan''s people hide in the dark and can move around. The catapult was not flexible enough to contain Wei Yan''s attack in the dark.


    After a while, the shouting stopped.


    All around, silence.


    Wei Yan hid in the dark. He looked at the soldiers gathered in the camp and saw Zhang Xiu. His face was full of pride. He said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, I will be here. You have the guts, you come out to fight? "


    In the dark, it is not easy to fight and it is easy to be ambushed.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Wei Yan''s words, she was not agitated and did not lead her troops to fight. She said faintly, "Wei Yan, you are also a great general. Will you only use this kind of tactics that can''t be harassed?"


    Wei Yan heard the speech and replied, "this is also the way to use military force."


    "That''s the bullshit way to use troops."


    Zhang Xiu retorted: "Liu Biao let you sit in Wan County, let you block this will unify the area to the north of Yuyang county. I didn''t expect that you were a sneaker. It''s disgusting to act stealthily and keep buzzing like a fly. "


    Wei Yan clenched his fist when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Sneakers?


    Like a fly buzzing?


    With Wei Yan''s rebellious and arrogant disposition, he was furious when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words. Fortunately, he did not lose his mind and said again: "Zhang Xiu, less nonsense, I''ll ask you a question, dare you go out to battle?"


    Zhang Xiu said calmly: "if this general leads the army to fight, I''m afraid you Wei Yan will run away like a terrified dog. You Wei Yan urged me to go to war, dare to swear to heaven, once this will send troops, you do not retreat? If you withdraw, there will be five thunders in the sky. You will die of choking when you drink water, bumping when you go out, falling when you ride a horse Do you dare to swear? "


    This made Wei Yan choke.


    His cheek slightly twitches, Zhang Xiu this also too ruthless!


    The ancients had great respect for the heaven, and they paid more attention to the oath. They did not dare to swear at will.


    Let Wei Yan swear, he will not.


    The purpose of his troops is to harass and make Zhang Xiu''s army unable to rest. If Zhang Xiu really leads the army out of the camp, he will not fight with Zhang Xiu, and will immediately withdraw with his troops.


    Seeing that Wei Yan didn''t speak, Zhang Xiu sneered, "Wei Yan, why don''t you speak? I''ve heard that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun in Jingzhou said that you Wei Yan are arrogant and self righteous. Today, I see you, so it is. "


    "Zhang Xiu, don''t be arrogant."


    Wei Yan was furious when he heard that, and his eyes were full of anger. He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu immediately.


    This boy is really hateful.


    That mouth, even worse!


    As soon as Wei Yan''s eyes turned, he ordered: "Huang Ben, take three hundred soldiers to the camp and shoot arrows a hundred paces away. Shoot me to death to suppress Zhang Xiu''s arrogance. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Ben was ordered to take the soldiers forward quietly.


    There is a torch burning in the camp, but the light of the torch is limited. Ten feet away from the camp, I couldn''t see clearly. Especially when you look out in the light, you can''t see anything.Wei Yan arranged for Huang ben to shoot an arrow, and said again: "Zhang Xiu, you can talk a lot. I just say, do you dare to fight? How I deal with it is my business. If you don''t dare to fight, you should be a turtle


    Zhang Xiu hears the speech, but is pondering.


    Wei Yan wanted him to go out of the camp to fight. Was there an ambush outside?


    This is Zhang Xiu''s consideration.


    In fact, Wei Yan did not ambush at all, but he constantly agitated Zhang Xiu, creating such a false impression.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu made a decision.


    He called to Huang Zhao and said, "Huang Zhao, you should send 1000 elite soldiers from the army, start from the rear camp and make a detour to the front camp. Later, I will lead the troops to pursue Wei Yan, and you will follow quietly. If Wei Yan''s ambush comes out on the way, you should rush for help immediately. I''d like to see who ambushed who in this battle? "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhao was ordered to turn around and leave.


    After Huang Zhao left, Zhang Xiu spoke to Wei Yan again and continued: "Wei Yan, you are such a cowardly rat, which makes people despise you. Don''t talk if you don''t swear. When you talk, I feel sick. "


    Wei Yan said, "you are the cowardless rat."


    Two people each bosom idea, scold to have no nourishment of words. Wei Yan''s intention is to use these few soldiers, so that all the soldiers of Zhang Xiu can''t rest well, so that he can attack during the day.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention is to wait for Huang Zhao to bypass Qianying.


    He ordered the two soldiers to talk to each other with their arrows.


    "Whew! Whew


    Hundreds of bows and arrows shot out of the darkness, across the air, straight to the gate of the camp. As a matter of fact, when the bow and arrow flew over a hundred paces, their strength dissipated a lot and they lacked attack power.


    The Spearman swung his gun to block it and easily swung away the bow and arrow.


    After two rounds of arrow rain, the bow and arrow stopped.


    At this time, a soldier came to Zhang Xiu and said that Huang Zhao had arrived and could fight.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    This time, he would like to see how Wei Yan would lead him into the urn?


    All of a sudden, Zhang Xiu''s eyes widened. Because of the direction of Wuji mountain in the distance, a fire broke out. The fire rising from the sky, straight into the sky, even across the distance, can also be clearly seen.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she turned her mind.


    He speculated that this may be Gan Ning''s action, but he was not sure that Gan Ning did it.


    However, this doesn''t prevent Zhang Xiu from bluffing Wei Yan. He immediately said in a high voice: "Wei Yan, you come to our general''s camp, but I don''t know that your rear is also in our general''s calculation. See the fire in the back? The East peak where you sent troops has turned into a sea of fire. "


    "Sons, Gan Ning succeeded in capturing Dongfeng. Follow me and kill Wei Yan."


    Zhang Xiu takes advantage of the opportunity to lead the troops out.


    Soldiers in the army, with a torch in one hand and a sword in the other, follow Zhang Xiu and rush out of the camp quickly.


    At this moment, the momentum is like a rainbow.


    Wei Yan saw that Zhang Xiuzhen had killed him. He didn''t dare to resist and ordered to retreat immediately. But when he retreated, he looked up and saw the fire burning in the direction of Wuji mountain, and roared: "Zhang Xiu, you mean man, you are playing tricks."


    At this moment, Wei Yan was extremely anxious.


    The two peaks outside Wuji mountain are the most important places for him to resist Zhang Xiu.


    Once lost, the consequences are unimaginable.


    "Pull back, pull back."


    Wei Yan gave a loud order. He wanted to fly back to Wuji mountain and command the soldiers to take back the lost land.

 Chapter 68

    Wei Yan was anxious in his heart. He retreated recklessly and only wanted to return to Wuji mountain earlier. But in the rear of Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu and her soldiers keep on chasing and pester Wei Yan''s soldiers.


    In this pursuit, Zhang Xiu brought 2000 people. In addition, Huang Zhao with 1000 people in the dark, leaving 3000 people in the camp. Even if Wei Yan had ambush to attack the camp, it was enough to guard.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu has no worries.


    As soon as the two sides fled and chased each other, the two teams were entangled and biting each other like long winding snakes in the dark.


    Zhang Xiu took the lead in killing Wei Yan and catching up with the last soldiers.


    "Kill


    When the golden spear came out, the cold light flashed in the air. With a puff, the sharp point of the spear had penetrated into a soldier''s body, bringing out a tent of blood.


    One shot killed one person.


    Zhang Xiu left and right to fight, killing one after another left behind soldiers, and in Zhang Xiu wantonly killing, his soldiers have quickly followed up, also began to vigorously cover up.


    Wei Yan''s soldiers were killed and injured in the torrent of fighting.


    Wei Yan looks back.


    Into the eye, is the burning torch. The screams of the soldiers under his command echoed in his ears.


    His soldiers, constantly killed.


    Wei Yan''s face was filled with endless anger, his face was ferocious, and his eyes showed deep hatred.


    Damn it!


    Damn Zhang Xiu.


    Wei Yan did not expect that Zhang Xiu would arrange people to go to Wuji mountain to do things, which Wei Yan did not expect.


    Especially now Zhang Xiu leads the troops to fight, pursues under the dark night, is he initially unexpected. In Wei Yan''s original plan, even if he repeatedly provoked, Zhang Xiu could not lead the soldiers to kill.


    After all, it''s a big night, and it''s dangerous to get out of the camp.


    But Zhang Xiu really came.


    Is Zhang Xiu not afraid of being ambushed? Even if he didn''t ambush, can Zhang Xiu predict? Wei Yan''s mind is full of too many doubts at the moment, but gradually he has no mind to ponder.


    At the moment, not only Wuji mountain is in trouble, but also the soldiers around him are in trouble. Now entangled by Zhang Xiu, if he does not get rid of Zhang Xiu, he will be in danger of overturning.


    This is extremely dangerous.


    Wei Yan is the commander in chief of the army. If he is captured by Zhang Xiu, all the arrangements of Wuji mountain will come to nothing. Even if he left Deng Ning to be in Wan County, if he was controlled by Zhang Xiu, Wan county would not be able to keep it.


    Therefore, we must get rid of Zhang Xiu.


    Wei Yan, on the one hand, drove his horse to retreat, and on the other hand, he looked back. For a moment, he could not think of a solution.


    It''s just a retreat.


    When Wei Yan drove his horse to retreat, he saw a soldier next to him take off his armor, throw away his weapons, and run like a flying horse. As soon as his eyes lit up, he immediately ordered: "send the order down, throw away his dry food and armor, and retreat at full speed!"


    "Your Majesty has orders. Throw away the dry food and armor and retreat at full speed."


    Huang Ben gave the order.


    When the order was given, the soldiers in the army followed suit one by one, throwing away their armour and the dry food they were carrying, and retreating quickly just to get rid of the pursuers behind.


    Rao is so, Zhang Xiu is still chasing.


    Even though Wei Yan took the soldiers to a certain distance, he still didn''t get rid of Zhang Xiu.


    For a moment, I was very anxious.


    When Zhang Xiu pursues, he hears the shouts of the heralds in Wei Yan''s army. He sees that Wei Yan''s soldiers keep throwing away their weapons and armour. With a smile on his lips, Wei Yanguo really didn''t ambush.


    If there was an ambush, it would have been a long time ago.


    If there is an ambush, you will not lose your armor.


    After all, the soldiers under Wei Yan''s command lost at least one third of the fighting. In particular, this distance from Wuji mountain, have run about half of the distance, have not ambushed to kill, we can see that Wei Yan is really not ambushed.


    "Chase, take Wei Yan."


    Zhang Xiu pointed to the front of the gun and said in a loud voice: "if you take down Wei Yan, you will be rewarded with 100 gold, and the official will be promoted to two levels."


    He gave the order without stint.


    As the saying goes, there must be brave men under the heavy reward. With Zhang Xiu''s order, the soldiers got the news and screamed one by one, as if they had beaten chicken blood. They threw off their legs and pursued quickly.


    Many soldiers sprint at a speed no slower than the horses at night.


    The distance between the two sides has narrowed again.


    Wei Yan saw the pursuers coming up again and looked at the soldiers who were killed. His heart was like a knife, and his heart was bleeding. All of a sudden, he had a plan and made up his mind.


    Wei Yan said in a loud voice: "withdraw, disperse the retreat. Later, go back to camp. "


    The order is like rain in time.


    After hearing this, the soldiers under his command no longer followed Wei Yan to retreat together, but quickly ran around. One by one, the soldiers ran around, hoping to escape the chase.


    Not to mention, it works.


    Zhang Xiu is chasing Wei Yan at night. The army under her command must keep the same and not disperse. During the day, it''s bright and you can see clearly, but now it''s night and it''s dark around, which is not conducive to catching up.Wei Yan''s soldiers were all scattered, but it was not easy to catch up.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of the soldiers running around, so she stared at Wei Yan.


    Now the closer to Wuji mountain, the stronger the light. Because the East Peak outside Wuji mountain has turned into a sea of fire. The fire is all over the sky, and Zhou Zai is as bright as day.


    From a distance, you can see the fire and the smoke.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, Wei Yan became more and more clear.


    When less than a mile away from Wuji mountain, Zhang Xiu saw that there were less than 100 soldiers around Wei Yan, and only dozens of them followed.


    Because most of the soldiers were scattered.


    Wei Yan''s figure is also exposed in Zhang Xiu''s eyes. However, the distance between the two sides is 100 Zhang. Even if Zhang Xiu shoots an arrow, it can''t reach 100 Zhang.


    Zhang Xiu drives his horse to chase him.


    Wei Yan retreated quickly. When he came to the location of the East peak, he raised his eyes and looked up. Suddenly, a smile appeared on his face. Because at the foot of the East peak, there is a dense array of soldiers.


    These soldiers all came out of the camp in Wuji mountain to put out the fire. But at the moment, seeing the fire burning, they could not go up the mountain to put out the fire. They had to fight below the mountain.


    After all, the fire is too big.


    At the foot of Dongfeng mountain, there are nearly 3000 soldiers.


    Moreover, all the soldiers on Xifeng have been evacuated to avoid being attacked by the fire.


    "Everyone will follow my orders and kill Zhang Xiu."


    After Wei Yan approached, he immediately gave an order.


    These three thousand soldiers are well-equipped, highly effective and experienced. On hearing Wei Yan''s order, they all quickly turn around, take up arms, and follow Wei Yan to kill Zhang Xiu.


    The distance between the two sides is only a hundred feet.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Wei Yan had sent troops to kill him. He called for a private soldier and asked the private soldier to go to the rear to give orders to Huang Zhao. Then he held the golden spear in his hand and said in a loud voice: "sons, when the two armies meet, only the brave win! The enemy is just ahead, kill them


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu led the army and met them directly.


    Even if there are thousands of troops, he is not afraid!


    Even if Wei Yan mobilized troops to kill him, he could still fight the first World War.


    One word, kill!


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers also charged.


    Wei Yan saw Zhang Xiu kill directly, stunned for a moment. Because in his view, Zhang Xiu encountered an attack, is likely to choose to retreat, rather than stay in the East peak to continue fighting.


    "To die!"


    Wei Yan said in secret.


    He longed for Zhang Xiu to stay, so he had a chance to kill Zhang Xiu.


    "If you kill Zhang Xiu, you will be promoted to three levels and be rewarded with thousands of gold."


    Wei Yan gave a loud order to let his soldiers charge. When he and Zhang Xiu fought, his left shoulder was injured and he could only hold the knife with his right hand. His combat effectiveness was weakened a lot, but at the moment, he was also willing to go.


    In a flash, the two armies met and fought together.


    The fighting between the two sides was fierce.


    The number of soldiers led by Zhang Xiu is less, but the combat effectiveness is not weak at all. In the face of Wei Yan''s attack of more than 3000 elite soldiers, he was able to defend without leakage and steadily blocked the attack.


    This scene was discovered by Ganning nearby.


    The cavalry around Ganning were full of energy at the moment. They were all eager to fight for a while.


    Gan Ning''s original plan was to wait for the soldiers stationed on the mountain to rush down while the fire broke out in Dongfeng, and then wait for them to be killed. But Dongfeng caught fire, wujishan camp and Xifeng soldiers came to help, resulting in his failure to fight.


    Although the fire also killed some soldiers stationed in Dongfeng, most of them escaped.


    This makes Ganning upset.


    At present, Zhang Xiu leads the troops to kill, Ganning''s heart is open, and he wants to get involved in the battlefield. But at this time, the fighting between the two armies was in full swing, and his fifty cavalry entered the battlefield, which was of little use and of no significance.


    "Don''t you kill me, general?"


    Before Ganning gave the order, the soldiers could not wait.


    Gan Ning stared at the scene of fighting in the battlefield. After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "don''t worry, it''s not time to kill. If we go out now, it will not affect the overall situation, on the contrary, it will only increase casualties. "


    "Good steel, use it on the blade."


    "We must be able to play a decisive role in our success."


    "In the current fighting, although the Lord''s forces are less, his fighting capacity is not weak. However, in my opinion, after a while of fighting, the Lord will not love to fight, and will probably retreat. "


    "After all, Wei Yan is not weak either."


    "Once the Lord retreats, Wei Yan will not give up and will probably lead the troops to pursue him."


    "When Wei Yan led the army to pursue, he would follow Wei Yan. Once the time is ripe, immediately kill, and Lord before and after attack Wei Yan, kill thoroughly


    In Ganning''s eyes, he has ambition.


    He is not willing to fight for nothing. If he wants to fight, he must be able to make contributions, or at least control the war situation.The soldier worried: "but there are few of us. Can it work after we kill?"


    Gan Ning clenched his fist, looked confident and said: "although we are few, our combat effectiveness is not weak. I''m not afraid. Don''t you dare to fight with me? "


    "Who said not? Those who dare not are cowards. "


    A general must not be agitated.


    Gan Ning was slightly agitated, and all the soldiers held their heads high, like cockfighting. Seeing this, Gan Ning raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "in this war, we need to show our style. You are all well prepared. Don''t go to the battlefield. "


    In Ganning''s mind, he knew there was a risk.


    May seek in the rich and noble danger!


    He wants to have a try.

 Chapter 69

    The fighting is still going on. Zhang Xiu raises her gun and drives her horse, and keeps on fighting.


    On the battlefield, unless one can quickly seize the flag, one''s military courage is really insignificant. Even if Zhang Xiu killed soldiers one by one, the whole battlefield could not be shaken by such killing.


    Zhang Xiu, who was fighting, was bathed in blood, just like a bloody man. The golden spear with tiger head in his hand, tick tick tick, has blood flowing continuously, and drops down to the ground along the tip of the spear.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Zhang Xiu''s constant fighting consumes a lot of strength and breath. He looked around the battlefield, his soldiers were still fighting bravely, fighting closely with Wei Yan''s soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are brave and good at fighting.


    Wei Yan''s soldiers were brave and fearless of death.


    It''s hard to separate the two sides. Even though the number of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers was small, Wei Yan could not win a decisive victory for a short time.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to see such a scene.


    The longer you fight, the more you die.


    He searched around and didn''t notice where Wei Yan''s flag was or where he was. If Wei Yan can''t be found, Zhang Xiu can''t capture the flag.


    I have to go!


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, with a decision.


    He fired at the incoming enemy, stopped fighting, and ordered: "withdraw, all the troops retreat!"


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds on the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu called in the army, and the soldiers under her command did not want to fight. She retreated as fast as the tide.


    This curtain falls in Wei Yan''s eyes, is the performance that Zhang Xiu can''t hold.


    "Zhang Xiu, you want to escape now, it''s too late! Previously, when you chased me, you were able to kill me. This time, it''s time for me to go after you. "


    Wei Yan murmured to himself, his eyes were full of fierce color, and ordered: "Herald, chase!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The trumpet resounded through the battlefield.


    It''s an order to pursue.


    Wei Yan is no longer hidden in the soldiers, galloping out. He led the soldiers in pursuit. At this moment, Wei Yan was full of spirit, unrestrained and happy!


    Have a good time!


    Comfortable!


    Big man, be like this!


    This is Wei Yan''s idea at the moment. He only feels that the previous grievances in front of Zhang Xiu are all vented at this time.


    Zhang Xiu also has today!


    Today, Zhang Xiu must die.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    Wei Yan galloped his horse and roared as hard as he could.


    All the soldiers under Wei Yan''s command were killed at this time, and they were forgetful. Wei Yan trained a elite soldier, who had a strong fighting capacity. When they met Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, they were on a par.


    Now seeing his opponent escape, he is very excited. He wants to make a concerted effort to completely defeat Zhang Xiu''s army.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Zhang Xiu retreats in front of him. Seeing Wei Yan coming from behind, he smiles at the corner of his mouth.


    Wei Yan, you''re in the trap again!


    "Retreat, speed up the retreat."


    Zhang Xiuyan watched Wei Yan''s soldiers approach and gave an order again.


    The soldiers retreated at full speed, not giving Wei Yan the chance to catch up.


    Wei Yanyan watched Zhang Xiu run faster than the rabbit. He couldn''t catch up with her for a while and was so angry that his teeth itched. No matter how he pursued, the two sides kept a distance of about 20 steps.


    As soon as Wei Yan gritted his teeth, he sprinted on horseback and speeded up again. He got rid of the soldiers and rushed to the front. He soon killed Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    As soon as he got close, the sword in Wei Yan''s hand was raised and cut down.


    "Poof!"


    The edge of the knife splashed with blood.


    This red and warm blood, soaked in Wei Yan''s body, splashed on Wei Yan''s face, is to stimulate Wei Yan.


    He wants to kill all sides.


    I want to kill Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Wei yanru was crazy, waving his sword and roaring: "kill, kill! Kill


    Under the leadership of Wei Yan, the soldiers kept on advancing like wolves, and began to shorten their distance to catch up with the retreating soldiers.


    For a time, the killing spirit filled the sky.


    Although the soldiers in the rear were overtaken by Wei Yan, and some of them were entangled and couldn''t get away, Zhang Xiu didn''t kill them in the current situation. He led the soldiers to retreat, without any confusion, still in order.


    This scene falls into Gan Ning''s eyes, who is hiding in the dark.


    Ganning with cavalry in the vicinity, he saw Wei Yan lead the army to kill, saw Zhang Xiu''s soldiers retreat, at first wanted to intervene immediately, to stop Wei Yan''s attack, but finally put down his mind.


    Because Zhang Xiu is in full speed retreat, and it is an orderly retreat.This situation may lead to a counterattack.


    Once Ganning immediately intervenes in the battlefield, it will disrupt the layout of Zhang Xiu.


    Gan Ning followed along and made a decision in his heart. He made two kinds of considerations. If Zhang Xiu didn''t counterattack all the time, when he got close to the camp, he would lead his troops to fight out from the rear. If Zhang Xiu counterattacks halfway, he will cut off Wei Yan''s retreat from the rear.


    This is Ganning''s plan.


    At the moment, what Gan Ning can do is to follow.


    The fighting continued and the retreat continued, but there were many soldiers along the way. Died in the killing of Wei Yan.


    As soon as the two sides fled and pursued each other, when they ran nearly half the distance, a soldier quickly ran out of the forest beside the official road and joined Zhang Xiu''s soldiers. Not long after, the soldiers came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "general, General Huang Zhao is ambushing on both sides of this place."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and continued to lead the army to retreat.


    He retreated a mile further, then turned his horse around and stopped. He said in a loud voice, "it''s time to fight back. This is where we ambushed Wei Yan. Huang Zhao is right behind Wei Yan. Now, let''s go back and kill Wei Yan. It''s today! "


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu pointed the gun to Wei Yan''s direction.


    "Woo! Woo


    The excited sound of the horn suddenly reverberates in the night.


    This is the order of the counterattack.


    All soldiers have to order, no longer retreat, quickly turn around, and then face the killing of Wei Yan army.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    One torch after another appeared from the rear of Wei Yan, cutting off Wei Yan''s retreat.


    Here are Huang Zhao''s soldiers.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Wei Yan is fighting hard. Seeing Zhang Xiu stop, he thinks that Zhang Xiu will not escape. But in the twinkling of an eye, there was an ambush in the rear. A heart sank down, and his expression was very complicated.


    How is that possible?


    Zhang Xiu killed out of the camp tonight on a temporary basis. She didn''t have the time and opportunity to lay an ambush. On the way, how could there be Zhang Xiu''s ambush?


    But now, everything really happened.


    Ambush, it''s true!


    Wei Yan is also a veteran on the battlefield. Although he is young, he has a lot of experience. Seeing the ambush in the rear, he didn''t retreat but advance. He said in a loud voice: "boys, although there are a few soldiers in the rear, they can''t stop us. Today, kill Zhang Xiu. "


    He gave a strong order to attack.


    Wei Yan is very clear about the current situation and can''t withdraw now. Once ordered to retreat, the morale of the army broke up, it would be defeated like a mountain, and it would be reduced to fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board.


    Only continue to kill.


    Only when Zhang Xiu is defeated in the front can he be free from the influence of the rear ambush.


    Wei Yan took the lead with a knife in his right hand. Under the leadership of Wei Yan, the soldiers continued to fight with high morale, and there was no turbulence.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu saw Wei Yan, sneered, then waved a gun and ordered to fight.


    And Zhang Xiu is also a pat horseback, straight to the direction of Wei Yan, to win Wei Yan.


    In Wuji mountain, Wei Yan hid in the army and did not show up. Zhang Xiu could only kill the soldiers, but could not affect the situation. Seeing Wei Yan at the moment, Zhang Xiu is ready to capture the thief and the king.


    If we win Wei Yan, we will win the first battle.

 Chapter 70

    "Wei Yan, take your life!"


    Zhang Xiu drank a lot. He galloped his horse like an arrow to Wei Yan.


    The roar is like thunder.


    Wei Yan is a veteran general on the battlefield. He was startled to hear Zhang Xiu''s cry. Especially see Zhang Xiu straight Leng Leng toward him to kill, cold can''t help but shiver, immediately turn the horse to retreat, to avoid killing to Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not that he doesn''t fight, it''s that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are too strong.


    In particular, he was seriously injured.


    If he doesn''t get hurt, he can fight with Zhang Xiu and delay for a while. But now he is seriously injured, and at this time he is still fighting with Zhang Xiu. That''s asking for trouble.


    In the current situation, Wei Yan even thinks that he is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid ten moves can''t go.


    But as soon as Wei Yan retreated, he was immediately seen by his soldiers.


    During the day, the 800 soldiers who followed Wei Yan to attack Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Xiu''s strength with their own eyes. They knew that Wei Yan couldn''t stop Zhang Xiu, so they didn''t think there was anything wrong with Wei Yan''s retreat.


    But by now, the 800 soldiers killed by Wei Yan during the day had fled everywhere, and there were no less.


    The rest of the soldiers have been in the army.


    These soldiers all adored Wei Yan and thought that Wei Yan had excellent martial arts and was invincible. But now, but see Zhang Xiu kill, Wei Yan do not fight and flee, Wei Yan met Zhang Xiu, as if the mouse saw the cat, did not dare to fight.


    In such a situation, the soldiers beat drums in their hearts.


    There is a shadow in the soldier''s heart.


    However, this influence was not reflected for the time being. The soldiers rushed forward and fought with Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    The two armies fought and fought.


    "Boys, kill me!"


    "It''s today to kill Wei Yan."


    Huang Zhao led the soldiers into the battlefield with a roar. The 1000 elite soldiers under his command are all elite in the army. These soldiers entered from the rear like a sharp knife into the Wei Yan army.


    Where you pass, you will be overwhelmed.


    For a moment, the formation of Wei Yan''s soldiers began to be in chaos.


    Attack from front to back, support from all sides.


    Wei Yan didn''t let the soldiers retreat because he was afraid that they would be defeated as soon as they retreated. But in the present situation, as the chief general, he was unable to lead the troops, and the soldiers lost their spirit.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu has been staring at Wei Yan. As long as Wei Yan appears, he will be attacked by Zhang Xiu. In this case, Wei Yan''s continuous flight further affected the morale of the army.


    Soon after the battle, the soldiers began to break up.


    Wei Yan''s soldiers can''t stop them.


    Wei Yan secretly hates Zhang Xiu for pestering him so much that he can''t command the soldiers. At the moment, his army has lost the initiative, even if it is impossible to stabilize the situation.


    "Withdraw! The whole army retreated. "


    Wei Yan gave the order.


    He did not dare to delay and ordered the withdrawal.


    The previous order soldiers forward, there is a trace of hope, want to defeat Zhang Xiu''s former army. But at this point, the army was defeated, and he had no chance. He just wanted to withdraw to wujishan camp early and defend with the help of wujishan camp.


    In Wei Yan''s heart, there is still a layer of concern.


    This time in pursuit of Zhang Xiu, he has done his best. Now she is ambushed by Zhang Xiu. Even if she returns to Wuji mountain camp, there are not many soldiers in the camp. It is very difficult to stop Zhang Xiu from being killed.


    In any case, we can only go step by step to get rid of Zhang Xiu''s ambush.


    "Withdraw!"


    Wei Yan roared and ordered to retreat.


    He opened his mouth to order, and was soon found by Zhang Xiu. As soon as he looked back, he saw that Zhang Xiu was killing him again. He was so scared that he quickly dodged and took the soldiers to retreat in the direction of Wuji mountain.


    Wei called a thousand soldiers, although the rest of the way was not blocked by Huang Jing, but also with a delay.


    Weiyan''s soldiers, retreat quickly.


    "Chase


    Zhang Xiu saw Wei Yan withdraw and ordered to pursue him.


    This is a great opportunity to wipe out Wei Yan.


    Once we miss this opportunity, it will not be easy to encircle and suppress Wei Yan. Even when Wei Yan returned to Wan County, it was not easy for Zhang Xiu to attack Wan county.


    In Zhang Xiu''s heart, she wants to win Wei Yan.


    He led the army and continued to cover up.


    Compared with the last one, this one is more smooth. Because there are torches everywhere, and the distance from Dongfeng is not too far. With the help of the burning light of Dongfeng, we can clearly judge the road ahead.


    The soldiers under Wei Yan''s command fled in panic.


    "Retreat, disperse, retreat!"


    Wei Yan gave the order again.


    In his heart, he thought that he could not keep Wuji mountain. What we are thinking about at this moment is the maximum preservation power.


    Wei Yan''s heart, is regret.Why did he come after Zhang Xiu at night? If we don''t pursue Zhang Xiu, there will be no immediate things. The army under his command will not be defeated so far.


    But it''s too late.


    No matter how much he regrets, it is impossible to change the situation.


    What Wei Yan can do is to escape as much as possible.


    Zhang Xiu led the chase, always paying attention to the direction of Wei Yan. At first, Wei Yan retreated into the soldiers, but he couldn''t find his direction. But with Wei Yan''s order, the soldiers scattered and fled. When they fled around, the soldiers behind Wei Yan gradually decreased, and his figure was exposed in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    The distance between the two sides is less than 100 steps.


    This is within the range of Zhang Xiu''s bow and arrow.


    As soon as the gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand was taken away, she quickly took out the long bow on the horse''s back. With a touch of her hand, she took out a bow and arrow and put it firmly on the bow string.


    The horse is still running forward, but Zhang Xiu is sitting on the horse.


    The arrow aimed at Wei Yan, and Zhang Xiu let go immediately.


    "Whew!"


    Bows and arrows come out as fast as lightning.


    Sharp arrow, pierced the air, hanging sharp howling, straight to Wei Yan''s vest. At the moment, Wei Yan was retreating quickly. Suddenly, he didn''t want to have a premonition. Looking back, he saw a bow and arrow coming.


    Between the lightning and flint, Wei Yan turns to avoid the bow and arrow.


    Rao is so late.


    "Puchi!"


    The arrow pierced the armor on Wei Yan''s back and penetrated into his left shoulder.


    Severe pain, from the wound, Wei Yan was so painful that he took a cold breath, and his cheeks were slightly ferocious. When he fought with Zhang Xiu, he was stabbed in front of his left shoulder by a golden spear. Now he is hit by a bow and arrow at the back of his left shoulder.


    "Zhang Xiu, you and I will never agree."


    Wei Yan roared bitterly. He felt blood flow from his back and left shoulder, but now there was something that could not be dealt with, so he had to keep on running.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t kill Wei Yan with one arrow, but hurt Wei Yan with some regret.


    Previously, Wei Yan was not on guard and shot an arrow. Although it hit, it didn''t kill Wei Yan. Now that Wei Yan is on guard, it is almost impossible to shoot him.


    Zhang Xiu changed her mind and yelled: "sons, it''s Wei Yan who wears silver and white armor and has a bow and arrow on her shoulder. Take down Wei Yan, raise the official to three levels, reward 100 gold, chase


    He cried out.


    When the soldiers heard this, they stared forward one by one, their eyes shining.


    The injured Wei Yan, everyone has a chance, once captured, will be promoted and made a fortune.


    Wei Yan Ran in front of him, but he also heard the voice of the rear. He heard Zhang Xiu''s words like a grain on his back. He did not expect that Zhang Xiu should use such a trick. Once he is entangled by the soldiers, he will get into trouble immediately.


    You can''t expose your identity.


    After thinking in his heart, Wei Yan stretched out his hand, gritted his teeth and pulled out the bow and arrow on his back.


    This bow and arrow is too conspicuous.


    If he always retreats with the bow and arrow, he will become the target of all people and will be targeted all the time. Just forced to pull out the bow and arrow, blood splashing, gurgling out.


    Wei Yan felt weak at the moment. But Wei Yan couldn''t bear to think much. He quickly took off his silver armor, threw it away and continued to run.


    Zhang Xiu saw it and gave it a smile.


    Wei Yan, it''s a trick again!


    He just yelled, is intentionally for it, is to let Wei Yan himself pull out the bow and arrow on the back. At this time, pull the arrow, the injury will further aggravate, with the blood flow, Wei Yan''s body will gradually weaken.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu believes that as long as he has been hanging behind Wei Yan, he will surely be able to boil Wei Yan to death. Because Wei Yan, after all, was seriously injured and couldn''t last long.

 Chapter 71

    Ganning personally led 50 cavalry, still following in the dark. He watched Wei Yan get closer and closer to the Wuji mountain camp. If he didn''t do it again, it would be hard for Wei Yanzhen to do it when he returned to the Wuji mountain camp.


    Gan Ning no longer hesitated, decisively ordered: "all officers and men listen to the order!"


    "Yes


    Fifty fine riders, all answered.


    Every soldier''s eyes were full of fighting spirit.


    They are ready for World War I.


    "Kill, take Wei Yan."


    After Gan Ning ordered, he patted the horse on the back and first came out with a sword. Ganning killed out of the position, is in the direction of Wei Yan retreat. As soon as he appeared, he blocked Wei Yan''s way.


    Wei Yan''s left shoulder was injured, and he continued to fight. In a short period of time, his left shoulder was almost useless, so it was difficult to play his fighting capacity. His martial arts skills were weakened by at least 60%, so it was difficult to fight against Gan Ning.


    At the moment, Wei Yan can only retreat.


    Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to Wuji mountain camp, Wei Yan saw another cavalry on the official road in front of him.


    In a flash, Wei Yan''s heart trembled.


    Why are there ambushes?


    Zhang Xiu is a temporary intention to pursue, how can there be one after another ambush?


    At the moment, Wei Yan can''t bear to think more. He heard the cry from the rear and saw the fierce Zhang Xiu rush to kill quickly. He had no choice but to order: "rush, rush!"


    Some of the soldiers who were running in front of Wei Yan, when they saw the cavalry killed in front of them, also rushed with a stiff head.


    They can''t stop.


    When you stop, you die.


    But as soon as these soldiers met Ganning''s cavalry, they were killed by Ganning and 50 cavalry.


    "Gan Ning is here, Wei Yan, dog thief, take your life!"


    Gan Ning''s eyes fell on Wei Yan, and he drove his horse to Wei Yan.


    He wants to take Wei Yan and take the lead.


    However, when he rushed to Wei Yan, Wei Yan''s soldiers came up to stop him from getting close to him. Gan Ning''s face was cold and solemn, and his hand was up and down, and he easily killed the soldiers who blocked him.


    When the blade passed, blood spattered.


    Ganning is unstoppable.


    At the moment, Ganning is less than 20 steps away from Wei Yan.


    Wei Yan saw that Ganning killed people like chickens, and his face showed an eager look. The martial arts displayed by Gan Ning are beyond the resistance of ordinary soldiers. The soldiers in the army can''t stop Ganning, and once he is entangled by Ganning, he will die in Ganning''s hands.


    At this time, Huang Ben came forward directly. His face was filled with emotion to die, and there was a voice on the ground: "on weekdays, adults treat me well. Today is the time for Huang ben to serve you. My Lord, continue to retreat, and I will entangle Ganning. "


    Wei Yanlian said: "Huang Ben, you are not Ganning''s opponent."


    Huang Ben looked fearless and said solemnly: "even if he is not defeated, he can at least hold Gan Ning for a moment. Adult, we must get rid of Zhang Xiu''s pursuit and revenge for the last general. "


    Lang turned to the other soldiers and said, "who dare to fight with him?"


    "Fight


    "Fight


    "Fight


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers came forward with a look of death.


    When Wei Yan saw this scene, he looked sad. My heart is like a knife, and I clench my fist hard, which is extremely worrying. These are all his soldiers. In order to keep him alive, they are willing to die with their bodies to delay Gan Ning''s killing.


    Huang Ben laughed with a bold look and said in a loud voice, "good brother, good Erlang, come and kill me!"


    "Kill


    The voice falls, Huang Ben drives the horse to kill.


    The rest of the soldiers followed.


    There were nearly a hundred soldiers who rushed forward bravely and fearlessly. They all looked at death as if they were home. They did not want to escape, they only wanted to kill the enemy, they only wanted to hold Gan Ning''s pace.


    Before long, Huang Ben rushed to Gan Ning and attacked him with a knife. With a sword in his hand, he didn''t defend at all. He directly attacked Ganning and roared, "Ganning, take your life!"


    Gan Ning looks calm and blocks with his sword.


    "Dang!"


    The blades of the two swords collided, and the sound was very harsh.


    Gan Ning suddenly sends out strength, the great strength erupts, swings the Yellow Ben''s sword easily. And Ganning''s knife forward, a knife across, then cut the armor in front of Huang Ben, cut the skin in front of the chest.


    Under normal circumstances of the fight, Gan Ning''s knife cut down, Huang Ben potential must resist. But at the moment, Huang Ben didn''t care. He clenched his sword with his right hand and cut it off again.


    A knife fell down, straight to Ganning''s neck.


    This is the same way of fighting. Even if you are killed, you will hurt Gan Ning.


    Huang Ben has risked his life.


    To die is to hold Gan Ning back.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Gan Ning saw Huang Ben''s playing style and gave a cold hum. As soon as he turned the blade, it rose to block the knife cut by Huang Ben. After blocking Huang Ben''s attack, Gan Ning waved his knife again.A knife is as fast as lightning.


    Saw a cold light flashed, Huang Ben caught off guard, the blade has been cut down on Huang Ben''s shoulder.


    "Yes


    The blade falls and cuts the armor.


    Sharp blade along the left shoulder row down, in the right side of Huang Ben rib stop, leaving a nearly a foot long wound.


    All of a sudden, the blood overflowed and the flesh flew.


    Huang Ben roared with pain, but the endless pain made him even more crazy. He bit his teeth, endured the pain of his body, swung the knife in his hand again and cut it to Ganning''s neck.


    Regardless of his own injury, he only wanted to delay Gan Ning.


    In fact, the same is true of the more than 100 soldiers Huang Ben is carrying. One by one, bravely fearing death, they fought against the 50 cavalry soldiers with flesh and blood. Although more than a hundred soldiers died one after another in the fall of the cavalry, the attack of the cavalry was blocked.


    Under the protection of his own soldiers, Wei Yan was able to cross Ganning and continue to retreat.


    When he looked back, he happened to see the scene of Huang Ben''s chest being cut. He was so angry that his eyes were about to crack, and there seemed to be countless angry outbursts in his chest.


    At the moment, he would like to kill back and fight side by side with Huang Ben.


    But he has to retreat.


    Watching the soldiers die, Wei Yan feels remorse. If he didn''t take the initiative to attack, or if he didn''t think he was right, there would not be the current tragic situation.


    Wei Yan''s heart is full of anger and regret.


    "My Lord, revenge! Revenge


    Suddenly, not far away came Huang Ben''s cry, but Huang Ben saw Wei Yan retreat safely, shouting. In his present situation, it is impossible for him to escape. He has to fight to the death.


    He swung a knife to kill Gan Ning, and he had already risked his life.


    "To die!"


    Gan Ning holds the knife in both hands, and uses his whole body''s strength to cut it out.


    "Dang!"


    The weapons collided and made a loud noise.


    The next moment, the knife in Huang Ben''s hand was knocked out. Gan Ning was not affected at all. The blade continued to move forward. A cold light flashed in the air, and the blade cut Huang Ben''s throat.


    There was a bloodstain in the throat where the blade passed.


    "Poof!"


    The bloodstains burst and the fresh blood splashed out.


    Huang Ben''s throat was cut by a knife. Others also in this instant, then lose consciousness, the body plops down to the ground.


    He still keeps his revenge mouth.


    "Revenge


    In the crowd, some soldiers saw Huang Ben died in battle and cried out. They did not flee one by one, bravely launched a charge against the cavalry under Ganning.


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    ¡­¡­


    The cries of the soldiers, one after another, were even more tragic.


    Under the cover of cavalry, more than a hundred soldiers were killed, and the cry became smaller. But the voice of the soldier''s cry clearly reached Wei Yan''s ears. When he heard the cry from the rear, he looked even more sad. He clenched his fists and stabbed his nails into the flesh.


    "Withdraw! Retreat


    Wei Yan roared loudly.


    He can only retreat, he can''t let the blood of Huang Ben and the soldiers flow in vain, can''t let the soldiers die in vain.


    Zhang Xiu led the pursuit and saw the tragic death of Wei Yan''s soldiers. She was also filled with emotion. Although Wei Yan was rebellious and conceited, his ability to lead troops could not be ignored.


    It needs the personal charm of the general to make the soldiers go to the death hall with emotion.


    Gan Ning killed Huang Ben, but failed to take Wei Yan, very angry. Seeing Zhang Xiu catching up, he rode his horse to Zhang Xiu''s side and said with shame: "Lord, Wei Yan is injured and can''t run far. If the cavalry pursues him, he will be taken


    "Go after it!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and ordered.


    For Gan Ning''s killing, Zhang Xiu thinks it''s a surprise.


    Zhang Xiu''s order to Ganning is to let Ganning inquire about the situation in Dongfeng to find out the situation. Unexpectedly, Ganning burned the whole Dongfeng, causing a war, which allowed Zhang Xiu to take advantage of the situation.


    This is Gan Ning''s credit.


    In this war, Gan Ning should make the first contribution.


    However, it is not the time to reward Wei Yan for his merits. Zhang Xiu led Gan Ning, Huang Zhao and others to pursue Wei Yan quickly and wanted to win Wei Yan.

 Chapter 72

    Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning continue to pursue.


    It''s getting closer to Wuji mountain.


    And Wei Yan''s distance is gradually getting closer. The distance between the two sides has gradually narrowed to a hundred paces. But around Wei Yan, there are many soldiers to protect Wei Yan''s safety.


    Even though Zhang Xiu''s archery is full of twists and turns, she can''t shoot Wei Yan.


    When crossing the East and West peaks and arriving at Wuji mountain, the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than 30 steps.


    Zhang Xiu is also not soft, successive bow archery. A bow and arrow shot, arrows such as meteors, Wei Yan soldiers around, constantly died in Zhang Xiu''s arrow.


    Up to now, there are less than 15 bodyguards around Wei Yan.


    There were less than 100 soldiers around Wei Yan.


    Because at the time of Wei Yan''s retreat, most of the soldiers fled around at Wei Yan''s command, and had already dispersed and fled.


    Wei Yan was a little dizzy at the moment.


    At home, the wound in front of his left shoulder was cracked, blood was flowing out, his body was weak, and he was already on the verge of collapse. When he was riding on the horse, his head was dizzy.


    He can''t hold on.


    Wei Yan''s heart also gave birth to a strong sense of powerlessness. He bit the tip of his tongue hard to wake up from his lethargy and looked back. As far as I could see, the cavalry came closer and closer.


    In particular, Gan Ning took the lead, and his wanton face made Wei Yan''s heart tremble.


    He looked back to see the direction of Wuji mountain camp. Today, there are only a few soldiers stationed in the camp of Wuji mountain, and there are no soldiers who can fight the first World War.


    I can''t escape!


    Wei Yan had a decision in his heart and looked helpless. He looked at the guards and soldiers around him and said in a loud voice: "don''t worry about me. Run for your own life. This battle, it''s my official who has implicated you. Run away quickly. "


    "My Lord, we are not going!"


    Head of the pro guard, loudly answer.


    With a stubborn look on his face, he said, "if you want to walk together, you should die together. At that time, the adults took us to Jingzhou and fought with the thieves in Jingzhou. Even in danger, they never left us. Today, we fight to the end with adults. "


    "Yes, fight to the end with the adults."


    One by one, they all spoke together.


    These pro guards are Wei Yan''s team in Jingzhou. He went north to Wan county and brought all the soldiers who were loyal to him. But in this war, his bodyguards lost too much.


    Wei Yanshen took a breath with emotion, and suddenly laughed and said, "well, if you want to die, you''ll die together. Now we can''t escape. Since we can''t escape, we will fight to the death. It''s enough to kill one, but it''s enough to kill two. "


    He braced himself up, turned his horse around and was ready to fight.


    If you want to die, you have to die heroic.


    "My Lord, back to camp."


    Just as Wei Yan was preparing to fight, suddenly, there was a cry from both sides of the official road.


    Wei Yan fixed his eyes and saw an army on the left and right sides of Wuji mountain camp. This army quickly intervened in the battlefield, blocked Ganning''s pursuit, and protected Weiyan regiment.


    When Wei Yan saw the soldiers who suddenly appeared, he was confused. He didn''t know where the reinforcements came from?


    He has no reinforcements!


    However, Wei Yan didn''t think much about it and immediately retired to the camp.


    Zhang Xiu leads the troops to cover up and kill. Seeing that Wei Yan is taken away, there are troops involved in the battlefield, which is also a secret hatred in her heart.


    A quarter of an hour at most, we can take Wei Yan. I didn''t expect to be interrupted at the critical moment. He led the soldiers to fight for a while, but the other side defended with long spearmen. Even if Zhang Xiu rushed into the battle, he couldn''t kill him.


    In particular, the other side is a new force with full combat effectiveness. If Zhang Xiu insists on going to war and attacking by force, even if Zhang Xiu can win, I''m afraid that his troops will suffer countless losses.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want.


    "Withdraw!"


    Zhang Xiu looks at Wei Yan who retreats into the camp of Wuji mountain and gives the order to retreat.


    One by one, retreat quickly.


    Gan Ning followed Zhang Xiu, his face full of unwilling expression, said: "Lord, just a little bit, we can kill Wei Yan, straight to Wan county. It''s really hateful to kill a soldier suddenly. "


    Zhang Xiu also sighed.


    He is not willing to withdraw, but the situation is like this. This is the battlefield. The situation is changing rapidly.


    No one knows what will happen next.


    Zhang Xiu quickly adjusted her mind and said: "soldiers fight continuously, without previous physical strength. From Daying to Wuji mountain, from Wuji mountain to Daying, and finally from the direction of Daying to Wuji mountain, the iron man can''t sustain the running back and forth. "


    "Soldiers can support up to now, all by heart of a breath of spirit."


    "Now, no more killing."


    "Even if Wei Yan is saved, but in this battle, you burned Dongfeng, and we killed so many of Wei Yan''s soldiers. This battle is a profit, not a loss."


    Zhang Xiu said: "as for the battle with Wei Yan, there is no need to worry. This time, he failed to win Wei Yan. The next time, he beat him up. "After listening, Gan Ning is still not reconciled.


    But there was nothing to do.


    After all, Wei Yan has been rescued.


    In fact, for Zhang Xiu, through the battle tonight, he defeated Wei Yan''s new force and achieved the goal of the first stage. Zhang Xiu won the first victory, he took the lead.


    As for killing Wei Yan in one go, it''s not easy.


    After all, Wei Yan is not weak.


    The reason why Wei Yan fell into the trap this evening is that he didn''t expect that there would be a big trouble in the rear, which disrupted all his plans. If it were not for Gan Ning''s cavalry, the war would not have gone this far.


    Wuji mountain, inside the camp.


    Wei Yan was seriously injured and his face was pale. He looked at the leader who came to help him and asked, "who are you? I have never met you. On whose order did you come to rescue the general? "


    Zhou Ru, the leader of the army, was in his early thirties. He was very strong and strong.


    In the face of Wei Yan''s inquiry, Zhou Ru was not impatient and said: "I''ll tell you back. My name is Zhou Ru. I''m the general of the Deng family. I''ve come to Wuji mountain with 2000 soldiers to help you


    "Of these two thousand soldiers, 1500 were recruits recruited by the family leader in Wan county. The other five hundred are the warriors recruited by the owner of the family who scattered all his wealth. "


    "The head of the family was worried about the situation on the front line, so he asked me to bring troops to help."


    "I''ve just arrived with my soldiers. When I learned that the adult had been ambushed, I set up an ambush outside the camp and advised you to return to the camp."


    Zhou Ru made a general introduction.


    Wei Yan didn''t have the heart to think about Dunning''s recruiting without his permission. His face was full of happiness, and he said with emotion: "you came too timely. If you were a little late, you would have died in Wuji mountain this time."


    Zhou Ru inquired, "my Lord, what''s going on in this war?"


    Zhou Ru didn''t know about the war at night.


    Zhou Ru knew Wei Yan and knew that he should not have been defeated so miserably.


    Wei Yan sighed and said something about what happened tonight. After that, he said with emotion: "I didn''t expect that. Zhang Xiuming came to cover up with soldiers temporarily, but was lying in ambush on the way. Zhang Xiu is a man who is really unpredictable


    After hearing this, Zhou Ru also looked dignified and said: "you must be careful when you fight with Zhang Xiu. If you don''t pay attention, you may fall into Zhang Xiu''s trick. "


    Wei Yan sighed again.


    Immediately, Wei Yan summoned up his spirits and said, "when I withdraw, I order the soldiers under my command to escape in order to get rid of the pursuit. Before long, many soldiers will withdraw. Zhou Ru, you are responsible for the resettlement of the soldiers who have been withdrawn. Put them all in place. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru''s fist should be thrown.


    After a pause, Zhou Ru said, "my Lord, it''s late at night. You are seriously injured. Have a rest early."


    Wei Yan said: "the wound is well bandaged and the medicine is used. It''s no big problem. You''ve been on the run all day. Go down and have a rest. I''ll think about what happened tonight and what we''ll do next. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru turned and stepped down.


    Wei Yan was the only one left in the camp.


    Wei Yan''s eyes were staring at the swaying oil lamp, and there seemed to be a fire burning in his eyes. His cheek, gradually becoming cold, is full of unwilling.


    Tonight, too many people died.


    Huang Ben is dead!


    His bodyguard is dead!


    His soldiers were killed and wounded.


    Wei Yan clenched his fist and murmured: "Zhang Xiu, this battle has just begun. The contest between us is not over. When my soldiers gather, I''ll fight again. "


    He has endless grievances in his heart.


    He wants to revenge, to defeat Zhang Xiu, to tonight''s humiliation, one by one back.

 Chapter 73

    Zhang Xiu returns to the camp with her soldiers. When she arrives, it''s already Yinshi, more than an hour before dawn. Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning''s whole army to line up in order to count the soldiers. After counting the losses in the war, the soldiers were allowed to rest separately.


    In this war, 468 people died. The vast majority of the soldiers who died in the battle were killed near Wuji mountain and were overtaken by Wei Yan when they retreated.


    When Wei Yan''s soldiers were killed, not many of them were damaged.


    With nearly 500 casualties, in exchange for the opportunity to inflict heavy damage on Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu thinks it is worth it.


    This battle is a great victory.


    In the camp, Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning, Huang Zhao and others took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and said, "Gan Ning has made a great contribution to this small-scale conflict. If there were no fire in Dongfeng, Wei Yan would not have been defeated. In this war, Gan Ning should make the first contribution. "


    "Thank you


    Gan Ning quickly got up to thank him.


    Gan Ning''s heart is also full of excitement.


    But he had some regrets and said with emotion: "Lord, it''s a pity that Wei Yan escaped. If it wasn''t for Wei Yan''s close guard, Wei Yan would not be able to escape. "


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and said: "under Wei Yan''s command, there are soldiers fighting to death, but also to protect him to retreat, which shows Wei Yan''s ability. Such people are not simple. When we fight Wei Yan, we should not be arrogant just because of the victory. Do you understand? "


    "I understand!"


    All of them answered.


    What Zhang Xiu worried about was that after the victory of the war, the whole army was impetuous and thought that Wei Yan was incompetent.


    In fact, Wei Yan is not weak.


    Ganning said: "Lord, when shall we attack again?"


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "the soldiers are exhausted after a fierce battle tonight. Let''s take a day off for a while and adjust our condition. Soldiers who take part in the war at night don''t have to gather in the daytime and let them sleep to keep their spirits up. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "xingba, do you think Wei Yan will arrange soldiers to stay in Xifeng after a big fire in Dongfeng?"


    "I don''t think so."


    Gan Ning thought about it and replied.


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said: "in that case, you can arrange a team of sentinels to go to Xifeng quietly. If there were no Wei Yan''s soldiers on the West Peak. Tomorrow night, arrange a group of soldiers to hide in Xifeng. Both Xifeng and Dongfeng are strategic places. They can be controlled in our hands and have many advantages. "


    Ganning said, "my Lord is wise!"


    After a compliment, Gan Ning said again: "when there is a big fire in Dongfeng, Wei Yan will worry about the same situation in Xifeng, and will not arrange people to stay. The LORD went in the opposite direction and quietly deployed the soldiers to garrison, which is tantamount to the layout ahead of time. "


    Zhang Xiu also smiles gently.


    On the battlefield, in addition to confrontation, we also pay attention to surprise.


    Only by surprise can we win!


    Zhang Xiu also praised the general for his bravery and said some other miscellaneous things. Then she waved her hand and said, "everyone is tired all day. Let''s go down and have a rest."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning and others should go down together.


    Ganning could not help yawning at this time. During the day, he took his soldiers to Dongfeng. He was always in a state of high tension. At night, he kept fighting back and forth. Now he relaxed and felt a little tired.


    After everyone retreated, Zhang Xiu also took off her armor and went to have a rest.


    When Zhang Xiu woke up, it was almost noon. Careful calculation, Zhang Xiu sleep less than three hours, but a short rest, he has recovered his spirit, no longer tired.


    That''s the advantage of being young.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, excellent physical fitness, energy is also strong, staying up late has no effect.


    After washing up, as soon as Zhang Xiu had lunch, Gan Ning rushed to Zhang Xiu''s tent and reported: "Lord, I will get the news from the sentinel. There are no soldiers stationed in Xifeng."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help cheering.


    This is an opportunity.


    Gan Ning continued: "now Wei Yan has retreated to Wuji mountain camp. Although the fire in Dongfeng has gone out, it has been reduced to scorched earth and is still steaming. In a short period of time, there will be no soldiers stationed. "


    Zhang xiuxiao said: "yesterday''s World War I scared Wei Yan. Of course, it may also be that Wei Yan''s troops were not enough to be stationed in Xifeng. It''s a good opportunity for us. "


    "How many soldiers will be sent to Xifeng?" asked Gan Ning


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "it''s enough to have six hundred elite soldiers, but remember not to leak their whereabouts. The lesson of the Dongfeng fire is still there. If we make the same mistake, it will be unforgivable. "


    Gan Ning said: "Lord, don''t worry. I understand. I will hide in Xifeng safely."Zhang Xiu said: "go and arrange it!"


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should be next, then turn round to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the tent, thinking about the next step. However, he is not too anxious to send troops. Now that Wei Yan has just lost, he needs to see whether Wei Yan will still be stationed in Wuji mountain.


    Wei Yan''s troops were insufficient. If he withdrew directly, Zhang Xiu could drive straight into Wan county. If Wei Yan continues to garrison Wuji mountain, Zhang Xiu must defeat Wei Yan''s army first.


    However, with Wei Yan''s temperament, he lost so miserably that he had a great hatred in his heart, and there was a great possibility that he would stay or even attack again for revenge.


    Of course, this is Zhang Xiu''s guess.


    ¡­¡­


    Wei Yan''s barracks.


    Wei Yan''s face was grim and even paler. Yesterday, he was defeated in the hands of Zhang Xiu, at the expense of his troops, and he was also seriously injured.


    His injury is under control.


    It''s hard to let go.


    With the passage of time, many soldiers have returned to the barracks around midnight. According to Zhou Ru''s report, more than 2200 soldiers have returned. When they returned, they were reorganized and incorporated into the army. After all, there were countless deaths and injuries yesterday, and many sequences were out of order.


    However, the more the soldiers returned, the fewer they returned. In the evening, Wei Yan sent someone to ask again. The number of soldiers who came back was more than 2600.


    Wei Yan looked at the numbers and was heartbroken.


    Among the soldiers he brought to Wuji mountain from Wan County, there were 5000 elite soldiers and more loyal people like Huang Ben. During the first world war last night, more than 2000 soldiers under his command were injured. Of course, some of them were captured and some escaped without coming back.


    But even if there were not more than 2000 soldiers killed in the war, Wei Yan lost more than 2000.


    Half of the troops were lost in the first World War, which is a huge number.


    If Wei Yan had not dispersed his soldiers in the two retreats, he would have lost all his soldiers in the first world war last night. Now there are more than 2000 soldiers withdrawn, plus the 2000 soldiers brought by Zhou Ru, Wei Yan has the strength of the first World War.


    Wei Yan said, "come on!"


    The tent curtain was lifted and a soldier quickly entered and bowed.


    Wei Yan said, "please come to see Zhou Ru."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a while, dressed in armor, Zhou Ru strode into the barracks and said, "I don''t know what I''m going to do for you


    Wei Yanchen said: "Zhou Ru, this time lost to Zhang Xiu, this will not be reconciled. Now the soldiers in the army are gathered together, and we have nearly 5000 soldiers. I want to attack Zhang Xiu again. What do you think? "


    Zhou Ru said, "I agree with your humble position."


    His answer is very straightforward. Because Zhou Ru didn''t consider the specific situation of the war at all, and he didn''t analyze the war. When he came, he was instructed by Deng Ning to support Wei Yan this time, regardless of all the costs, and hit Zhang Xiu hard.


    This is Zhou Ru''s position.


    Zhou Ru came to Wuji mountain not to help garrison, but to help Wei Yanqiang attack Zhang Xiu.


    Wei Yan got Zhou Ru''s advice, with a smile on his face, nodded and said: "with you, I will be at ease. You are in charge of rectifying the soldiers. Two days later, we will attack Zhang Xiu again. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru was ordered to turn back.


    Wei Yan sat alone in the camp, thinking about the next contest. Now he is full of the idea of revenge, want to beat Zhang Xiu, revenge.

 Chapter 74

    Two days, fleeting.


    In the past two days, Zhang Xiu has been standing still and did not send troops to attack Wei Yan. Zhang Xiu layout in Xifeng ahead of time, the next thing to do is to wait for Wei Yan to take the initiative to attack.


    Based on Zhang Xiu''s understanding of Wei Yan, Wei Yan still chose to stay in the camp of Wuji mountain after losing his troops, so he would attack again.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is not anxious at all.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu camp.


    Outside the big account of the Chinese army, Gan Ning came in a hurry. His face was full of excitement. As soon as he entered the camp, he eagerly reported: "general, according to the sentinel, Wei Yan has sent troops. This time, he brought nearly 5000 soldiers


    "Five thousand?"


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "in Wei Yan''s hands, there are still 5000 soldiers."


    Gan Ning explained: "on the one hand, a group of reinforcements came and rushed into Wei Yan''s command; on the other hand, when we killed Wei Yan, his soldiers fled everywhere and many people returned to Wei Yan''s command."


    "Your analysis is reasonable," Zhang said


    Gan Ning continued: "Lord, Wei Yan leads the troops to kill, what shall we do?"


    His eyes were full of expectations.


    In this war, Gan Ning wants to fight well.


    Zhang Xiu thought a little, then ordered: "the next war, Xing Ba, you do not actively participate in. You go to Xifeng immediately


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu made detailed arrangements.


    After hearing this, Gan Ning frowned and said, "it''s dangerous to confront Wei Yan in the front. Why don''t you go to Xifeng, where you can help in secret. The end will be responsible for the confrontation. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if I''m not in the camp, Wei Yan will be suspicious. You go to Xifeng and follow the plan. Besides, although I''m going to fight with Wei Yan, I won''t go to the battlefield in person, and there won''t be any direct fighting. On the contrary, it''s Xifeng you are in charge of. The most important thing is not to be taken lightly. "


    Gan Ning said, "I understand your humble position."


    At the moment, Gan Ning is convinced of Zhang Xiu''s stratagem. Wei Yan will surely fall into the trap for such a stratagem.


    Wei Yan will be defeated!


    Gan Ning didn''t stay either. After leaving the camp, he mobilized a hundred cavalry and left quietly. After Gan Ning left, Zhang Xiu put on his armor and hung a Longquan sword around his waist. Then he went out of the barracks and mobilized the soldiers to gather.


    About two quarters of an hour later, Wei Yan''s army arrived outside the camp.


    Wei Yan''s wound has scabbed. Although he can''t fight hard, it doesn''t affect his command of the army.


    At this moment, Wei Yan rode his horse.


    Wei Yan''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu in the camp, and his eyes are full of anger.


    Two thousand days of fighting, he still remembered.


    He couldn''t forget the bloody scene.


    He couldn''t let go of the soldier''s tragic death.


    Wei yanlang said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu, you are a mean person. I''m leading my troops here today. How dare you go out to fight? "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was amused.


    Listening to what is said and observing what is done is the most basic way to observe what is said and what is done.


    As soon as Wei Yan spoke, he directly challenged.


    There''s not a bit of ingenuity in this.


    This situation exposed Wei Yan''s impulse after he lost his mind. In the battle field, although the strong attack side takes the initiative, it must pay a considerable price to win the strong attack, and the defensive side loses less power.


    Zhang Xiu is clear that Wei Yan is to let him lead the troops out of the camp to fight, not to fight.


    However, Zhang Xiu deliberately distorted the way: "Wei Yan, you are the defeated general of our general, do you dare to fight? The wound on your shoulder has completely recovered


    This is intended to stimulate Wei Yan and make him lose his mind.


    Wei Yan did not dare to fight.


    He is not Zhang Xiu''s rival.


    On hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Wei Yan said with disdain: "Zhang Xiu, this will not be a war, is to let you lead the troops to fight, do you dare to fight?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it turns out that after you lose, you dare not fight."


    Wei Yan''s face was black and his heart was angry.


    He''s not a fool. He''s not good at martial arts, but he has to fight. But Zhang Xiu in front of all the soldiers, say this thing, he really has no face.


    Wei Yan said: "Zhang Xiu, do you dare to fight?"


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t answer. She sighed and said, "Wei Yan, it''s not wise for you to attack. If I were you, I would not attack. "


    Wei Yan said: "Zhang Xiu, stop talking nonsense."


    Zhang xiuce immediately took the first two steps and looked at himself freely. He still didn''t take Wei Yan''s words and continued: "Wei Yan, if I were you, I would not bring any more soldiers or garrison Wan county. Instead, I would give up Wan county and go back to Xiangyang."


    "You came to Wan county to seek for the official position and wealth."


    "Unfortunately, you''ve got the wrong target."


    "It''s impossible for you to gain more benefits by following the general''s reputation here. The fight two days ago is a living example. ""On leading the army, you are not bad at Wei Yan."


    "It can make the soldiers bravely protect you, which shows that you have won the trust of the soldiers and have great ability."


    Zhang Xiu talked with a high voice and said, "but for your own interests, for your illusory rights, regardless of the life and death of the soldiers, you have to block my way to the north."


    "Why bother you?"


    "If you want to get a promotion and make a fortune, there are countless ways. It''s totally unnecessary to use the lives of your soldiers to fill in."


    "If you want an official, I will be able to give it to you."


    "You are the leader of the army, and the general is also the leader of the army. Only those who are leaders of the army know how difficult it is to train a good army. To kill or injure one person is like to kill or injure one''s own brother. "


    Zhang Xiu, with a heart to heart attitude, said slowly: "if I were you, I would not take my brother''s life to grab benefits. Wei Yan, it''s true that you are capable. But your conduct will not be valued, let alone despised. "


    A word, full of emotion.


    These words spread into the ears of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, one by one they felt relieved, and their looks were even more proud.


    When they were introduced into the ears of Wei Yan''s soldiers, they all frowned. Because in Zhang Xiu''s words, Wei Yan is described as a villain, a person who is unscrupulous for rights, and a person of bad conduct.


    This is exactly the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    To take this opportunity to weaken Wei Yan''s influence on the soldiers, we should enrage Wei Yan and make him lose his mind further.


    When Wei Yan heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his eyes turned red, and he said angrily, "Zhang Xiu, don''t say anything. You''re bloody. You''re damned


    "Bloody talk?"


    Zhang Xiu looked disdainful and said in a deep voice: "you Wei Yan, dare to swear in front of all the soldiers that Liu Biao asked you to go north, not to stop me Zhang Xiu?"


    "Do you dare to swear that Liu Biao asked you to go north without promising you more benefits?"


    "When he went south to Xiangyang, he reached an agreement with Liu Biao that the area north of Yuyang county should be managed by Zhang Xiu. But Liu Biao turned back and sent you to Wan County as magistrate. "


    "You Wei Yan, knowing Liu Biao''s treachery, are willing to be Liu Biao''s running dog and open your eyes for his interests. You are not a dirty little man. What is that?"


    Zhang Xiu has sharp eyes and a sharp mouth.


    Wei Yandeng was dumb.


    When it comes to mouth, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    This time, Zhou Ru was a member of the Sui army. He told Wei Yan to stand beside him and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, don''t be arrogant. You said that the general forgets righteousness when he sees profit. Don''t forget yourself. You are also very dirty. You slaughtered the Deng family and destroyed the whole family. It was not only insane, but also dirty. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing and asked, "who are you?"


    Zhou Ru said, "Xinye Zhou Ru!"


    Zhang xiudao: "listen to you, it''s the Deng family."


    "So what?" said Zhou Ru


    Zhang Xiu disdains a way: "you wait for people like this, have no personality at all, do dog for Deng family wholeheartedly, it is shameful and pathetic."


    "When the Deng family set up a business in Nanyang County, they saw that people''s life was difficult, and they also bid up prices and hoarded grain. On the surface, the Deng family is a famous family in Nanyang County. In fact, they are moths that parasitize the people and suck their blood. "


    "This will destroy the Deng family, collect their grain, and then open the warehouse to release grain, relieve the people and save countless people."


    "Ben will have a clear conscience about it."


    "We should be worthy of heaven and the people. Don''t say it''s you, Zhou Ru. Even if there are a hundred or a thousand more Zhou Ru''s accusations, we will never turn back. "


    Once more, Zhang Yiran said, "if you don''t want to go back to the family, you will come back again. The Deng family, who lives on the flesh and blood of the common people, is happy to die. "


    Zhou Ru''s eyes widened, and there was a look of fear on his face.


    Good Zhang Xiu.


    Zhou Ru was dumb and did not speak any more. At the moment, many recruits in the army were talking. Today, there are more than 1500 soldiers in Wei Yan''s army, who are newly recruited by Deng Ning in Wan county.


    These are the people of Wan county.


    These people know that Zhang Xiu killed the Deng family and then opened a warehouse to release grain.


    They have no aversion to Zhang Xiu.


    Now when I listen to Zhang Xiu''s words, they all talk about it.


    The morale of the army will drop again and again.


    When Wei Yan saw this scene, the secret was not good. He was awe inspiring and knew that he could no longer talk nonsense with Zhang Xiu. If you continue to talk nonsense with Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid his soldiers will be betrayed by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 75

    Wei Yan didn''t dare to delay any longer. He ordered: "Zhou Ru, transfer the catapult troops to hold down the formation."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru gave the order immediately.


    Not long after that, a catapult lined up in the army. There were ten catapults, all in order. Every catapult aimed at Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    One side of the soldiers, began to quickly fill the stones, ready to bombard Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    The weight of each stone thrown by the catapult is about 300 Jin. The weight dropped from the air to the ground, enough to make a big hole in the ground. If you hit the crowd, you can easily hit the dead.


    "Let''s go!"


    The school in charge of the catapult, direct order.


    "Bang Dang! Kuangdang


    A catapult runs, the lever swings, and the placed stones are thrown out.


    At the moment when the stone was thrown out, Wei Yan ordered again: "Archer, let go!"


    Eight hundred archers go to the front line and pull the bow quickly. Just listen to the buzzing vibration of bowstring, dense arrow, in the air, followed by the stone in the air, shot to Zhangxiu barracks.


    "Herald, attack!"


    Wei Yan gave the order again.


    When this order was passed on, the soldiers in the army launched a fierce attack.


    Wei Yan launched a comprehensive attack.


    The big stone flying over the sky is an important weapon for long-range suppression. It is necessary to suppress Zhang Xiu''s soldiers in the camp and cause chaos in the camp. The flying bow and arrow is to control the soldiers at the gate of the camp, so that Zhang Xiu can''t arrange the soldiers to block at the gate of the camp, so that his soldiers can enter the camp.


    As long as the army broke the defense of the camp, Wei Yan took the lead.


    This is Wei Yan''s strategy.


    The first wave of Wei Yan''s attack mobilized 1800 soldiers, more than one third of them.


    He has gone all out.


    When Zhang Xiu was in the army, she saw the bows, arrows and big stones coming from the sky, and the soldiers killed fiercely, without any confusion.


    This attack is not enough for fear.


    "The shield soldiers come forward and block the bow and arrow."


    Zhang Xiu ordered that soldiers who had been ready for a long time, holding shields, come forward quickly. All the soldiers raised their shields together, one shield on top of the head, forming a big shield.


    The bow and arrow that fell, Ding Ding, hit the shield and fell down.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    Falling stones hit the ground.


    But the soldiers retreated quickly. Even if the big stone fell, although there were wounded soldiers, there was no large-scale impact.


    Wei Yan''s offensive was suddenly dispelled.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for long spearmen and shield soldiers to take charge of defense, and ordered: "crossbow hand, Archer, ready."


    One by one bowmen and archers, quickly forward.


    The strong crossbow used by the Bowman is Huang Yueying''s improved weapon. The crossbow of each crossbow is nine inches long, forged with fine iron and sharp arrow. At present, only 300 such strong crossbows have been produced. As long as they are loaded and buckled, they can be launched.


    Within the range of 60 steps, the crossbow shoots fast, with high accuracy and strong lethality.


    Beyond 100 steps, the killing power is very weak.


    The reason is that the crossbow is fired flat, moving in a straight line. The speed is fast, and the strength weakens faster.


    But behind the archers, there are 500 archers.


    The crossbow is in front, the bow is in the back.


    This is the military layout.


    The strong crossbow is responsible for precision attack, while the bow and arrow are large-scale shooting. Although the bow and arrow are random shooting without accurate head, the victory lies in large number and wide attack range.


    "Shoot the arrow!"


    At Zhang Xiu''s command, the archer and the archer shot at the same time.


    The soldiers under Wei Yan''s command, who are running in the front, have entered the distance of 60 steps. When these soldiers were rushing forward quickly, they heard a burst of shooting sound, and then the crossbow and arrow came and went into the soldiers'' bodies.


    "Plop! Plop


    The soldiers who were hit by the arrow fell to the ground one after another.


    One soldier after another fell, or died under the crossbow, or was seriously injured.


    Screams, everywhere.


    After the crossbow and arrow were fired, the dense bow and arrow passed through the air and fell from the air, about 80 steps away from the camp.


    This is the soldier under Wei Yan, who just rushed out of the position for a while. The large-scale bow and arrow fall made the formation of Wei Yan''s soldiers in chaos.


    Wei Yan''s face was stiff and his eyes were cold.


    "Get the drumsticks!"


    He gave the order, and soon a soldier handed the drumstick.


    Wei Yan got off his horse and came to the battle drum not far from the rear. He rolled up his sleeves and swung the drumstick to beat the battle drum.


    This is Wei Yan who wants to cheer for the soldiers.


    "Dong! Dong


    When the war drum sounded, the soldiers under Wei Yan were ordered to rush forward in the rain of arrows.Zhang Xiu saw that Wei Yan''s soldiers were not afraid of the arrow rain, and her mouth was filled with a faint smile. Under the shooting of bow and crossbow, Wei Yan''s soldiers were killed and injured more and more. Even if there were soldiers charging fast, the distance was constantly narrowing, but the loss was great.


    For Zhang Xiu, if she only consumes some weapons, she can consume Wei Yan''s soldiers. It''s worth it!


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and looked at the big stone falling from her eyes. All the falling stones are in a neat row with the same range.


    See this, Zhang Xiu mouth up.


    This kind of catapult is easy to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu mobilized the catapult array. The catapult under his command was transformed by Huang Yueying and other old craftsmen. The range of the catapult was increased by about 50 steps, but the attack power was not weakened at all.


    A catapult, placed behind the stone landing.


    Twenty catapults, all in position.


    Looking at the commander in charge of the catapult, Zhang Xiu ordered in a deep voice: "Wei Yan''s catapult is bombarding the camp. Their stone landing positions are all in one shot, which is similar. Can you estimate their position according to the position of the falling stones, and then, in turn, blow up their catapults? "


    "Yes


    The captain answered firmly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will believe you. Go ahead and blow up all their catapults."


    "Here it is


    Duwei has orders to step down immediately. He came to the catapult and directed the soldiers to load the boulders. The big stones loaded by these soldiers were all treated, and their faces were covered with layers of linen, which was soaked in tung oil.


    Once ignited, the stone will burn.


    And it''s not easy to put out.


    When the soldiers who were responsible for throwing stones estimated the position and distance, the captain immediately ordered the fire to start. All the stones on the catapult were ignited, whistling and burning.


    "Let it go


    The captain roared, and the soldiers immediately dropped in.


    The lever of the catapult swung, and the stones on the catapult flew out. Big stones were burning and puffing up in smoke. Then they flew directly in the direction of Wei Yan''s catapult.


    Twenty burning stones, full of smoke, were fierce.


    This scene, let Wei Yan stare big eyes.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s catapult could throw fireballs.


    "No!"


    When Wei Yan saw the marks of fireballs flying by, he saw the fireballs begin to fall and fall in the direction of the catapult. He said in a loud voice: "fast, fast, move the catapult. You can''t let the catapult be hit."


    His voice fell, and the soldiers heard it, but it was too late.


    The burning flint fell down.


    One by one soldiers see this, rapid retreat, and burning flint hard impact on the catapult.


    "Click! Click


    Under the huge impact, the catapult collapsed in an instant. Even big rocks rolled and sparks splashed, many soldiers were injured, and some soldiers were hit by fireballs and died on the spot.


    Looking back, Wei Yan saw that his catapults had lost eight in the first wave of attack, and only two were not hit.


    The catapult was not hit, but dozens of soldiers died.


    "Damn it


    When Wei Yan saw this, he was so angry that he swore.


    He came to attack Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, he was thrown into a mess by Zhang Xiu''s catapult.


    Wei Yan clenched his fist and was unwilling. He ordered: "Zhou Ru, send another 1000 soldiers to join the attack line. Kill me. You must enter Zhang Xiu''s barracks. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru didn''t object, so he ordered immediately.


    Wei Yan looked at the 1000 soldiers who had once again entered the battlefield with expectant eyes.


    At this time, he can only attack.


    Rush into Zhang Xiu''s barracks, otherwise there is no chance to win.

 Chapter 76

    Zhang Xiu saw the constant killing of the enemy, without any confusion. Even if Wei Yan added more soldiers, he didn''t feel much pressure. He has worn it for thousands of years and has come back from later generations. If he can''t hang and beat Wei Yan, he will pass it in vain.


    Although Wei Yan increased the number of soldiers attacking, Zhang Xiu did not increase the number of soldiers, just let the original soldiers continue to resist.


    Zhang Xiu continued to observe the situation of Wei Yan''s catapult. After a round of gunfire, most of the other party''s catapults were dumb, leaving only two catapults throwing stones.


    "Good fight!"


    Zhang Xiu found this situation, can not help but applaud.


    In the second round of flint attack, Wei Yan''s catapult completely dumb.


    Zhang Xiu came to Duwei and looked around at the soldiers of the catapults, praising: "Wei Yan''s catapults are all destroyed, so they can''t throw any more stones. This battle, you play well, very good


    Duwei said, "the general is wrong."


    Everyone is excited, can get Zhang Xiu praise, can be said to be incomparable glory.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said: "the throwing of the catapult is no longer aimed at the other party''s catapult. The scattered stones should be taken care of by Wei Yan''s archers and his soldiers. "


    "Here it is


    Duwei was ordered to make adjustments immediately.


    Twenty catapults quickly adjusted. At the next moment, the artillery fire changed and stopped bombarding the previous position of the catapult. It fell into the crowd of archers and Wei Yan''s soldiers.


    The fireball fell and screamed.


    Archer, there''s chaos.


    Wei Yan had to order the soldiers to disperse to avoid being attacked by the catapult. But under such circumstances, when his soldiers were dispersed, they failed to form a formation and their morale would be greatly affected.


    The situation is very unfavorable!


    This is Wei Yan''s judgment.


    Wei Yan was staring at the battlefield. He saw his soldiers, avoiding the crossbow, and many people rushed to the gate of the camp.


    Wei Yan smiles at this moment.


    That smile, is to see the hope.


    All of a sudden, Wei Yan''s expression froze. He stared at the gate of the camp, his eyes widened, and his face was shocked. Because the soldiers who rushed to the gate of the camp and were ready to sprint inside fell down one after another.


    When a soldier falls down, a spear comes out.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The spear is poked out one by one and stabbed into the soldier''s body, even if it splashes countless blood.


    One by one, the soldiers died at the same time.


    "How could it be?"


    Wei Yan showed a puzzled look. His soldiers rushed to the gate of the camp. How could they suddenly fall to the ground.


    "Stumbling rope, there is stumbling rope at the gate of the camp."


    In the front, there was a shout back.


    The voice spread to Wei Yan''s ears. When he heard it, his cheek twitched slightly. Most of the time, the stumbling rope is used to stop the horses from moving forward. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu is used to stop the soldiers.


    The most irritating thing is that it works.


    As a matter of fact, Wei Yan''s soldiers rushed to the gate of the camp. When they rushed to the gate of the camp, their eyes were all focused on the camp, and they were even more glad to rush through the camp. Unexpectedly, they encountered a stumbling block.


    Behind the stumbling rope came a long gun.


    It''s a serial kill.


    "Hateful!"


    Wei Yan clenched his fist, gritted his teeth and said: "damn Zhang Xiu, he is very cunning."


    "My Lord, although we have damaged the soldiers, we can only use the stumbling rope once. As long as the soldiers behind rush into Zhang Xiu''s camp, it will succeed. You see, the soldiers behind have arrived at the gate of the camp one after another and started to fight in the camp. "


    Wei Yan looked up and continued to see that although the soldiers under his command were killed for a while, the soldiers under his command finally entered the camp and launched a fierce attack.


    "Well, well, I finally got in."


    Wei Yan''s face showed a trace of joy, he no longer hesitated, ordered: "Zhou Ru, you personally lead the army, the whole army to kill."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Ru immediately ordered a strong attack.


    All the soldiers under his command rushed out and rushed to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Wei Yan was no exception. Even if he was injured, he went to the battlefield with his sword. Although he was injured, as long as he didn''t meet Zhang Xiu, he could still kill the enemy.


    All the troops came out and went straight to the barracks.


    With the large-scale attack, soldiers continue to pour into the camp, archers began to lose their role. Aware of this, Zhang Xiu immediately removed the archers and let them fight with a knife.


    Immediately, he withdrew the catapults and ordered them to fight.


    This is a fight between the two armies.


    When it comes to the number of troops, Zhang Xiu has the upper hand. After all, after some fighting, the number of Wei Yan''s soldiers is less than 4000.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are not in the least damaged.


    Looking at the soldiers who entered the camp and fought with the soldiers under her command, Zhang Xiu ordered: "beat the drum, the whole army will attack!""Dong! Dong! "


    The rapid sound of war drums suddenly sounded.


    After the war drums sounded, all the soldiers in the camp were killed.


    At the same time, not far from the camp, another army was killed in the forest.


    Huang Zhao was the leader.


    He took the soldiers out and cut off Wei Yan''s retreat. Soon after, Huang Zhao''s army entered, forming a situation of encirclement, and Wei Yan''s army soon fell into crisis.


    When it comes to the number of troops, Wei Yan was in a weak position.


    Many of his soldiers are recruits.


    In the case of a smooth war, recruits can quickly transform into veterans and adapt to the fighting on the battlefield. But when the war is not smooth, the recruits are likely to flee and become the source of defeat.


    When the recruits could not stop them, they no longer resisted and fled everywhere.


    There are even recruits who surrender directly.


    The army was defeated.


    When Wei Yan saw this scene, he sighed in his heart.


    Lost again!


    He is not willing to lose, but this attack, still defeated.


    "Withdraw!"


    Wei Yan knew that there was no hope for the war, so he decisively ordered to withdraw. Zhou Ru with soldiers, guards in Wei Yan''s body side, is also with fast retreat.


    When the general retreated, Wei Yan''s army was even more defeated.


    Zhang xiuce horse gun, ordered: "chase, take Wei Yan."


    He led the soldiers and pursued them quickly.


    Wei Yan escaped quickly this time, but Zhang Xiu''s pursuit was not slow. He took the soldiers to bite Wei Yan. As soon as both sides fled and pursued, many of Wei Yan''s infantry were either killed or surrendered directly.


    Now with Wei Yan, only Zhou Ru and more than 50 bodyguards are left.


    It''s all cavalry.


    So, we can retreat quickly.


    There were only a hundred cavalry around Zhang Xiu. He led the army to catch up with her and kept on biting her.


    The pursuit in the day is not like that in the night.


    At night, the horses couldn''t let go. After all, they couldn''t see the road clearly. Now it''s daylight, Zhang Xiu riding horse gun, people borrow horse potential, horse borrow manpower, fast as lightning, constantly narrowing the distance.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    Forty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides is reduced to 40 steps, the distance is not far. Zhang Xiu didn''t run on the horse and shoot at the same time, because when he straddled on the horse, although the horse was running at full speed, the speed would always slow down, and he would distance himself from Wei Yan.


    What Zhang Xiu wants to do is to catch up with Wei Yan first.


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than 15 steps, Wei Yan was also in a hurry and ordered Zhou Ru to resist.


    As soon as Zhou Ru gritted his teeth, he turned around and slashed Zhang Xiu.


    Just as he turned around and stopped, Zhang Xiu was already close. As soon as Zhou Ru''s knife fell, he saw a cold light flash in front of him. With a puff, the sharp point of the gun had pierced his armor and heart.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward without stopping.


    Under the spurt of the war horse, the power of the spear spurt was to fly from the war horse with Zhou Ru''s body. Zhang Xiu drinks a low, the long gun throws hard, Zhou Ru''s body then inverted flies out.


    When he landed, Zhou Ru had lost his breath.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are cold and fierce. Seeing that there are pro guards to resist, he constantly waves his gun to kill each Pro guard.


    When Wei Yan looked back and saw the soldiers who died in the war, he was very anxious.


    He kept slapping on the horse''s back, intending to get rid of Zhang Xiu who was chasing behind. Although there are pro Wei delay, but with a pro Wei died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu and Wei Yan are closer and closer.


    Unconsciously, it is close to Wuji mountain camp.


    Not far from Wuji mountain camp, Wei Yan knew that there were two or three hundred soldiers in the camp. When approaching the camp, Wei Yan gave a loud order to let the soldiers in wujishan camp come out to resist.


    His intention is to use the soldiers of wujishan camp to hold Zhang Xiu and give him a chance to withdraw.


    After all, there were only dozens of cavalry around Zhang Xiu. As long as Zhang Xiu and the pursuing cavalry are held back, Wei Yan can retreat calmly.


    Just when Wei Yan ran forward, suddenly, the pupils in his eyes shrank.


    Inside the camp, a team of soldiers was killed.


    But this group of soldiers, not his soldiers, but the soldiers led by Gan Ning, under the banner of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 77

    The man who came here was Gan Ning.


    When Wei Yan left wujishan camp and went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp, Gan Ning quietly took his soldiers out of Xifeng. If there are 800 soldiers stationed in the camp, plus enough weapons, it will not be easy for Gan Ning to take down the camp.


    But Wei Yan took all the soldiers.


    There are only two or three hundred soldiers in the camp, and they are all wounded soldiers with weak fighting capacity.


    These soldiers, caught off guard, had no time to prepare fortifications or strength to resist. In just two quarters of an hour, Ganning defeated the army in the camp and took control of the camp.


    He lay in ambush in the barracks, waiting for Wei Yan to withdraw.


    Ganning hopes that Wei Yan can withdraw from the camp, because only when Wei Yan withdraws can he have the chance to make contributions. Once Wei Yanqiang''s attack fails and falls into Zhang Xiu''s hands, Gan Ning will have no chance to win Wei Yan.


    Seeing Wei Yan, Gan Ning looked excited. Holding his sword, he roared: "Wei Yan, Gan Ning is here. Take your life!"


    He galloped to Wei Yan.


    At this moment, Wei Yan''s heart seemed to be a heavy rain soaked ground, muddy. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu did the same thing again and sent Gan Ning to attack his rear.


    Does Ganning specialize in sneak attacks?


    Last time, Ganning attacked Dongfeng.


    This time, Ganning attacked the camp.


    He is in life and Gan Ning conflict, is how. Every time we meet Ganning, do we have to lose the rear?


    Wei Yan was helpless, but at this time, he could no longer run to the camp. Instead, he ordered his own guards to stop him, and he quickly turned around, ready to withdraw to Wan county from the other side of the road.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Ganning roared.


    Seeing someone''s blocking, Gan Ning''s eyes were wide open. He swung the long knife in his hand and cut it down.


    The blade fell and hit a pro guard''s sword.


    "Dang!"


    Fierce impact sound sounded, Wei Yan Pro Wei in the hands of the sword was knocked out, his hands are Hukou burst.


    The next moment, the blade in Wei Yan''s hand fell down and cut it on the neck of Pro Wei.


    "Poof!"


    The blood spattered and the guard''s throat was cut.


    A knife to death!


    "Kill


    Gan Ning roared loudly, flying up and down with a long knife in his hand, killing the guards. In such a short time, Gan Ning was dragged by his guards and watched Wei Yan run away, but Zhang Xiu caught up with him.


    Zhang Xiu and Wei Yan are getting closer and closer.


    At the moment, Wei Yan''s side is only three pro guards, guarding Wei Yan''s safety.


    The distance between the two sides is less than ten steps.


    After Zhang Xiu drives the horse close, the long gun sticks out, and then plunges into the back of a pro guard. The sharp spear head easily penetrated the back and penetrated the heart of the pro guard.


    The gun twitched and the blood spattered.


    The personal guard immediately fell down and lost his breath.


    "Fight!"


    The remaining two Pro guards see this and stop at the same time. They wave their swords to kill Zhang Xiu, intending to stop her.


    Zhang Xiu did not hide, but stabbed with a long spear.


    One shot out, the tip of the gun flashed a few cold stars in the air.


    Under the cold cover of the gun tip, two Pro guards left a blood hole in their necks, and their throats were pierced thoroughly.


    Still one shot!


    Two bodies, fall to the ground in a flash.


    Zhang Xiu kills two Pro guards and looks at Wei Yan who runs away with his horse. Because of the delay just now, the distance between them was twenty steps. As Zhang Xiu chased after Wei Yan, she put away her long gun, took out her bow and arrow, and aimed at Wei Yan''s direction.


    Wei Yan looked back and found that Zhang Xiu bent a bow and set up an arrow. He roared: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to shoot me, there''s no way!"


    If he''s on guard, he won''t get shot.


    Zhang Xiu looks indifferent, not impatient, hand a send, hand bow and arrow out of the string.


    "Whew!"


    The bow and arrow broke through the air and went straight to the rear of Wei Yan.


    Wei Yan listened to the broken air from the rear, his ears moved, estimated the direction of the arrow, and was ready to escape at any time.


    Suddenly, Wei Yan''s face changed greatly.


    He originally predicted that the bow and arrow was aimed at him, but after listening carefully, he found that the bow and arrow was not aimed at him, but ran to his horse.


    "Puchi!"


    Suddenly, a dull sound came out.


    Arrow, into the horse''s hip.


    "Herod!"


    The horses were in pain and hissed.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrow was not aimed at Wei Yan, but at the war horse. Within the distance of 20 steps, the bow and arrow are fast and powerful. After they are shot into the buttocks of the horse, the horse will go crazy because of pain.


    Even though Wei Yan had excellent equestrian skills, he could not control the horses and was thrown out directly when the horses were crazy. His body, flying over an arc in the air, fell to the ground with a bang.He landed on his left shoulder.


    Scabby wound, immediately tear, red blood from the wound overflow, pain he bared his teeth.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves sounded, and the horse under Zhang Xiu''s crotch galloped.


    Before Wei Yan got up, Zhang Xiu had already killed her. The tip of the gun, shining with cold light, stopped three inches in front of Wei Yan''s body. As long as the golden spear with tiger head moves forward three inches, it can easily pierce Wei Yan''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "you are defeated!"


    Wei Yan choked his neck, endured the pain from his shoulder, and said: "if I lose, I will lose. Although I lose, I will never surrender. Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill, kill and cut. "


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t talk to Wei Yan, and didn''t talk nonsense with Wei Yan. Now is not the time to deal with Wei Yan. He stopped at the same place and stared for a moment. His soldiers came up. Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "take Wei Yan down!"


    The soldiers came forward and tied up Wei Yan.


    Gan Ning followed up and watched Wei Yan be taken down by Zhang Xiu. His big black eyes blinked and his face was full of pity.


    What a pity!


    I didn''t grasp the merits of the war.


    If Wei Yan''s bodyguards didn''t resist, he could take Wei Yan''s first step.


    Although Gan Ning is not reconciled, there is no way.


    Zhang Xiu takes Wei Yan and leads Gan Ning and his party to the camp at the foot of Wuji mountain. Now that Zhang Xiu has defeated Wei Yan, she is temporarily camping in Wuji mountain.


    After Zhang Xiu arrived, soldiers came to the rear one after another.


    The army continued to flow in, and Zhang Xiu ordered the army to move over, and then began to count the losses.


    In this war, less than 200 soldiers died.


    But more than 1800 people were killed. In fact, the casualties of Wei Yan''s soldiers were mainly concentrated in the attack of bows and arrows, crossbows and catapults, as well as the casualties when they were killed.


    In addition, nearly 1500 soldiers were captured. The rest of Wei Yan''s men were scattered.


    After rectification, Zhang Xiu arranged for Wei Yan to be brought up. At the moment, Wei Yan''s injury has been properly dealt with, and the scabby wound on his left shoulder has been bandaged again without any bleeding.


    After he entered, he held his head high and choked his neck, with a rebellious look, but he did not kneel down.


    The soldier yelled, "don''t you kneel down yet!"


    When speaking, the soldier pressed his hand on Wei Yan''s shoulder and forced him to kneel down.


    Zhang Xiu waved his hand to stop him and said, "untie the rope on Wei Yan''s body."


    The soldier hesitated and advised: "general, once you untie the rope on Wei Yan''s body, I''m afraid Wei Yan will commit an attack."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Wei Yan, who is not injured, is not the opponent of this general, let alone the injured one. Untie his rope. There''s no need to tie it. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers had to be ordered to untie the ropes.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let the soldiers back down. With a smile, she waved her hand and said, "Wei Yan, sit down and talk."


    Wei Yan sat down directly, snorted and said with disdain: "Zhang Xiu, you can kill if you want. You don''t have to be hypocritical. Even if you ask the soldiers to untie me, I will not submit to you. "

 Chapter 78

    Zhang Xiu heard that Wei Yan refused, but she was not angry. She just asked curiously, "why don''t you obey me?"


    Wei Yan stubbled his neck and said, "you and I are irreconcilable."


    Zhang Xiu directly laughed. Wei Yan''s words were a bit of a joke. He said faintly: "you say that he and Ben will be irreconcilable, but I think he is wronged. Besides fighting on the battlefield, do I hate you for taking your wife? Or is there a family feud? Or, in my last life, I was the enemy. "


    For Wei Yan, Zhang Xiu wants to attract.


    This is a talent.


    If Wei Yan is willing to surrender, Zhang Xiu is also willing to reuse.


    Because under the command of Zhang Xiu, Ganning is now a general, and there are too few people who can use it.


    However, Wei Yan turned his lips and said with disdain: "there is no hatred for taking his wife, nor for destroying his family. But you and I fought, and countless soldiers under my command died in your hands. They died because of you, and you and I are at odds. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she burst out laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    In laughter, there is more irony.


    When Wei Yan heard Zhang Xiu''s laughter, his face was cold, and a nameless fire rushed up in his heart. His heart, this is not happy, Zhang Xiu so young, can occupy one side.


    Why can''t he?


    Why does he want to be an ox or a horse.


    Wei Yan is biting a tooth, sink voice quality to ask a way: "you smile what?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "this will smile is, you Wei Yan is also a brain, how to speak such an idiot."


    "In battle, each side has its own stand."


    "You bring soldiers to kill me, and I bring soldiers to kill you. It''s not about hatred, it''s just different positions. If you come to kill me, I should go deep out of my neck and let you cut off my head. "


    "Fighting on the battlefield, there is no enmity, no deep hatred, only their respective positions. You''re going to kill me, I''m going to kill you. It''s that simple. It doesn''t involve anything else. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wei Yan, what do you say?"


    This is an explanation.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu really thinks so. Fighting in the battlefield has nothing to do with gratitude and resentment. It''s just a personal position.


    This is war.


    Wei Yan was a little silent after hearing this, but he said in a flash: "no matter what you say, I will not submit to you. Even if we fight on the battlefield, it has nothing to do with hatred. But I, Wei Yan, would rather die than surrender. If you have the courage, let me go. When I get back to Wancheng, we will fight again. "


    Zhang Xiu sneers at the speech.


    Wei Yan thinks very well.


    Although Zhang Xiu appreciates Wei Yan, she won''t change her bottom line for Wei Yan''s sake, let alone let the tiger go back to the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Wei Yan, I will ask you again, you really don''t fall?"


    Wei Yan replied, "no


    Zhang Xiu shook her head with some regret.


    He is willing to recruit Wei Yan and give him a chance to show his talent, but Wei Yan is not willing to surrender, so he has no way. Perhaps Wei Yan, who is so rebellious, is not willing to be subordinated to others.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated and gave an order.


    Two soldiers entered the barracks and bowed for orders.


    Zhang xiudao: "take Wei Yan down, give him three feet of white silk, and send him on the road."


    "Here it is


    The soldier gave his fist and went straight to Wei Yan.


    "Wait!"


    Wei Yan gave a big drink.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Wei Yan, what else do you have to say?"


    There was a flash of light in Wei Yan''s eyes, and he said, "I, the eight foot man of Wei Yan Tang, stand up to heaven and earth. Even if I die, I will die bravely. How can I die under the three foot white silk. Zhang Xiu, give me a sword. I''d rather commit suicide than die at the hands of villains. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a touch of fine light, but he said: "come on, take a sword to Wei Yan."


    With these words, he sat upright, his hands on his belly and looked at Wei Yan quietly.


    Soon, the soldier took the sword.


    Wei Yan held the sword in his hand, and with a clang sound, he pulled it out of the sheath. He held it in both hands and wiped it away to his neck. But at the moment when the edge of the sword approached his neck, Wei Yan stepped forward and rushed to Zhang Xiu, shouting: "Zhang Xiu, die!"


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she was not alarmed or shocked.


    This scene, he had expected.


    At the moment when Wei Yan came to kill him, he stood up and put his hand on his belly to the deep left. He quickly grasped the Longquan sword at his waist and pulled it out of the scabbard.


    Wei Yan cut off with a sword, and Zhang Xiu welcomed him with a sword.


    "Dang!"


    The blades collided and sparks splashed.


    The Longquan sword in Zhang Xiu''s hand is not damaged at all, but there is a gap in Wei Yan''s blade.


    When they fight, Zhang Xiu doesn''t move. On the contrary, Wei Yanyi makes a great effort to crack the wound on his left shoulder, and his hand is powerful.There was an instant lag.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiuge blocks Wei Yan''s sword. He takes a step forward and swipes the sword. The blade broke through the air and turned into a streamer, cutting Wei Yan''s head.


    Wei Yangang and Zhang Xiu just hit each other with a sword. The short delay made him slow down.


    When Zhang Xiu''s sword fell down, he raised it.


    The two swords collide again.


    The next moment, he heard a "Chaka" sound. Wei Yan''s sword broke. Zhang Xiu''s Longquan sword cut Wei Yan''s sword and fell on Wei Yan''s neck.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade easily cut Wei Yan''s neck and cut the great artery.


    "Poof!"


    The blood is as red as a spring.


    Wei Yan''s face showed a look of pain. He quickly put his hand over his bloody neck to control the blood. But the blood was cut, and the blood was constantly gushing. His body swayed twice, and there was a dark moment in front of him. Zhang Xiu''s figure in the line of sight began to shake and become blurred.


    "I, I''m not willing to..."


    Wei Yan uttered a voice with a ferocious look.


    As soon as he said three words, he plopped back and fell to the ground.


    When Zhang Xiu''s Longquan sword was thrown, all the blood on the blade flew out, leaving no drop, and the blade was shining again. He put his sword into the scabbard and said, "drag Wei Yan down and bury him."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to take Wei Yan''s body.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wei Yan who was dragged away and shook her head with some regret. For Wei Yan, he is quite appreciative.


    Unfortunately, Wei Yan did not surrender.


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the camp.


    The curtain rolled up and Ganning strode in.


    After Ganning stood still, he clasped his fist and saluted, then said angrily, "general, Wei Yan is really shameless. The general called him down and gave him face. He didn''t come down and attacked the general on the pretext of committing suicide. Damn it. "


    On the way, he saw Wei Yan dragged away, asked about the situation and learned about Wei Yan''s attack on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s all in the past."


    Gan Ning did not mention Wei Yan''s affairs, but turned serious and said, "general, Wan county has just passed a piece of bad news. In the counties to the north of Nanyang County, Huns invaded and plundered the people. "


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, facial expression is dignified also rise, ask a way: "is the news true?"


    "True!"


    Gan Ning replied solemnly.


    Although Zhang Xiu has been in Yuyang county all the time, in order to unify the area to the north of Yuyang County, she sent many spies to the north of Yuyang county to inquire about the news of various places.


    The news sent back must be true.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind turns, in his impression, the Huns did invade Chang''an, Hongnong and other places to plunder. In the northwest of Nanyang County, it is very close to Hongnong and Chang''an. It is normal for Huns to invade the border of Nanyang County and plunder.


    As a matter of fact, the reason why the Huns could invade was that Li Xi and Guo Si in Guanzhong fought in disorder, and the Huns went down to the south. They didn''t fight each other and let the Huns plunder everywhere.


    This led to the Xiongnu rampant.


    Gan Ning asked, "what should we do if the Huns invade Nanyang? According to the Scout''s report, the counties in the north are already in a state of panic. Many local officials fled as soon as they heard that the Huns were going south. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the north of Yuyang county is my jurisdiction. The Xiongnu killed our people. Of course, we can''t just sit back and ignore this hatred. Let''s kill the Huns


    For the Huns, Zhang Xiu had only one word.


    Kill!


    If you don''t kill the Huns, I''m sorry for the thousands of people who died.


    If you don''t kill the Huns, I''m sorry for the displaced people.


    He has the ability to stand up.


    If Zhang Xiu is an ordinary person, no soldiers and no strength, it is also a helpless thing. But others in Wan county also had the ability to lead the army north to resist the enemy and kill the Huns.

 Chapter 79

    Gan Ning is not a man who is afraid of things, and he also hates the Huns. On hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, he felt his blood boiling and said excitedly, "what the LORD said is true. The Huns are coming. We should kill them."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with brilliance and said, "if you want to attack the Xiongnu, you have to make a big move. I''ll write an order to kill slaves at once, and you''ll send someone to send an edict to all sides to spread the news all over Nanyang County. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should go down.


    Zhang Xiu spread out a piece of good Zuo Bo paper, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink.


    "Slave killing order!"


    Three big characters, across the top.


    The characters are drawn with iron and silver hooks, showing sharpness and lethality.


    When Zhang Xiu passed through later generations, she mainly studied the willow style. The big characters in her works were decisive, strong and powerful.


    After the title falls, Gan Ning sees brilliantly.


    Kill the slave!


    This is not only a good writing, but also a powerful title, which makes people excited.


    Gan Ning''s heart is full of passion.


    Zhang Xiu thought a little, and she was already well-established, so she continued to write.


    "Today, Xiongnu invades Guanzhong, invades Nanyang, invades our territory and kills countless people. Although Zhang Xiu is weak in virtue, she can''t bear the slaughter of the common people and leads the army to kill them. "


    "The ancients said that those who violate our strong men will be punished even though they are far away. The Huns killed our people, burned our homes, and plundered women and children. This is a public indignation. "


    "The slaughter of Xiongnu is the righteousness."


    "Zhang Xiu hereby appeals to all quarters to call on the brave men to kill the slaves and guard their homeland."


    "Anyone who kills a slave can come to our place to receive a prize by virtue of his corpse."


    "If you kill one person, you''ll get ten thousand dollars; if you kill two people, you''ll get twenty thousand dollars; if you kill three people, you''ll get forty thousand dollars By analogy, those who killed Xiongnu, old and young, women and children, were rewarded. "


    "The Xiongnu is rampant. Those who are bloody should rise up to kill the Huns. Zhang Xiu was not talented and led the army to kill the slaves. She told the world with this sign and called on the warriors to rise up and kill the slaves. "


    Simple notice, quick finish.


    Zhang Xiu dried the words on the paper and said, "xingba, find the literate people in the army to copy them, and let the sentinel spread them quickly and widely."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning took the paper and turned back.


    Zhang Xiu is seldom at leisure when the army camp in Wuji mountain for the time being. However, in his heart, he was also thinking about how to destroy the Huns going south.


    The Huns are cavalry. They come and go like the wind and are not easy to catch up with.


    It''s not easy to destroy the Huns.


    After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu didn''t have any clue. After all, it''s easy to block the Huns, but it''s not easy to win them. It takes a certain time.


    The army rested for a day. The next morning, Zhang Xiu led the army to Wan county.


    When the army went northward, the Sentinels first went to all parts of the country. Some of them went to the north of Yuyang County, while others went to Yuyang county to deliver information.


    In just two days, the news spread all over the country.


    Wan County, county government.


    Dunning is dealing with official business. Now he is in the rear of the town. He has to coordinate food and weapons for Wei Yan.


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the room.


    A soldier rushed in and reported: "Mr. Xian Cheng, something''s wrong. Suddenly there was news in the city that Wei County ordered his troops to resist Zhang Xiu in Wuji mountain, and the whole army was destroyed. After Zhang Xiu caught Wei Xian Ling, he was executed by Zhang Xiu. "


    Brush!


    Dunning''s face changed greatly when he heard the speech.


    He has already arranged Zhou Ru to lead the troops to support, and has increased Wei Yan''s troops. It is reasonable to say that the number of Wei Yan''s troops has exceeded Zhang Xiu''s, and Wei Yan also knows the art of war and should not be defeated so easily.


    How did you lose?


    Dunning took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "this is the news coming from the city. Can we get the war report back?"


    "No!"


    The soldier shook his head and answered.


    Dunning''s heart sank. Under normal circumstances, every three days, war reports will be sent back to the front line, but until today, he has no news. Dunning had previously thought that Wei Yan might have forgotten that no one had arranged to send back the war report.


    Now it looks like it''s a real failure.


    Otherwise, there will be no news.


    The look on Dunning''s face was very dignified. Without Wei Yan''s troops, he is now in Wan county. There are only a thousand ordinary soldiers left in the city, which can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Dunning''s eyes rolled, thinking. After a while, Deng Ning made a plan, waved his hand to let the soldiers back down, and said, "come and call Deng you."


    The attendant outside the room is ordered to inform immediately.


    After a while, an old man in his early fifties, with a goat beard under his jaw, entered slowly. He was also a member of the Deng family, but he was not a direct or collateral member of the Deng family. He was a slave of the Deng family and was only given the Deng family name.


    Deng you entered and bowed himself to say, "old slave Deng you, I''ve met the master."Now the Deng family is dominated by Dunning.


    Deng Ning said in a deep voice: "old Deng, just got the news, Wei Yan''s whole army was destroyed, and he died in the hands of Zhang Xiu."


    Brush!


    Deng you''s face suddenly changed.


    When Wei Yan died, they became rootless Ping.


    Deng you raised his eyebrows and said, "master, Wei Yan died in the war. We can''t keep Wan county. Are we ready to leave?"


    "No


    Dunning''s eyes twinkled with hatred, and said: "I will never give up if I don''t take revenge on my family. I have an idea. Maybe I can get revenge. "


    "What''s the idea?"


    Deng you asked.


    Dunning leaned forward slightly and said: "a few days ago, news came from the north that Xiongnu people had entered Nanyang County from Guanzhong and plundered all the counties in the north of Wan county. I''m going to invite the Huns to go south and let them attack Zhang Xiu. With the strength of Xiongnu people, they come and go like wind and are extremely fierce. They are sure to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    "Ah, the master of the house can''t do it."


    On hearing this, Deng you shuddered and said, "we are Han people. If you ask the Huns to go south, it''s like doing something for the tiger. Once the news comes out, the consequences will be unimaginable. Even if Zhang Xiu is defeated, how can the Deng family get a foothold? Please think twice about it. "


    Dunning''s eyes were filled with hatred. He bit his teeth and said angrily, "Mr. Deng, I have no other choice."


    When Deng you heard the speech, he was silent.


    He could understand Dunning''s thoughts, but he didn''t agree with the plan of inviting the Huns to attack Zhang Xiu.


    Deng Ning continued: "Wei Yan was defeated, and more than 500 private soldiers of our Deng family also died on the battlefield. There is no other way to get revenge now. You go to see the Huns in person and tell them that as long as they go south to Wan county and defeat Zhang Xiu, I will give them enough food and silk to return with a full load. "


    Deng you said: "it''s extremely dangerous to seek skin from a tiger. Master, please think twice


    Dunning gritted his teeth and said, "I''ve thought about it very clearly. There''s no need to discuss it any more. This matter, you can carry out


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, outside the room, the voice of soldiers sounded again.


    "Come in," said Dunning


    After the soldiers entered, they saluted Deng Ning respectfully. In the soldier''s hand, he also held a notice, he reported: "county magistrate, there is a slave killing order in the city, which was spread by Zhang Xiu."


    Dunning took the order to kill slaves. After looking at it carefully, he burst into laughter. After a long time, he said, "go down!"


    The soldier wondered why Dunning laughed, but did not linger, turned and left.


    After the soldiers left, Deng Ning looked at Deng you and began to laugh again. He looked like he was in a good mood.


    After half a ring, Dunning said, "see? Deng Lao, see? This is Zhang Xiu''s own death. Just like Zhang Xiu, he even issued an order to kill the Huns, calling on people to kill the Huns. "


    When Deng you heard the speech, he opened his mouth, but when he got to his mouth, he swallowed it again. He wanted to say that Zhang Xiu was a great cohesion.


    However, he was afraid to annoy Dunning.


    Regardless of what Deng you thought, Dunning continued: "the Huns are cavalry. They come and go like the wind. They can''t catch them at all. It''s hard to catch them. Especially after offending the Xiongnu people, there will be endless trouble. "


    "But the Huns didn''t know the Chinese characters, they didn''t understand the words of the Han people, they didn''t know Zhang Xiu''s order to kill the Huns."


    "Mr. Deng, when you go to see the leader of the Huns, tell him the news."


    "Then, we''ll ask for it."


    Deng Ning said: "this time, the Huns will definitely kill Zhang Xiu. It is the so-called "Heaven''s evil" that can still live, and self inflicted evil can not survive. This time, Zhang Xiu bumped herself into the iron plate. "


    Deng you still hesitated and said, "master of the family, Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill slaves. What''s the point of righteousness. After the order of killing the Huns was issued, there must have been countless righteous men who followed Zhang Xiu to attack the Huns. Do we really want to get involved? "


    When Deng Ning saw that Deng you was still a babe, he immediately became angry and yelled, "Deng you, what do you mean? Are you going to betray the Deng family and not take revenge for them? "


    Deng you''s face changed greatly.


    He''s just a slave of the Deng family. He doesn''t have any rights and doesn''t dare to violate them.


    It''s just that he doesn''t want Dunning to come.


    Seeing that Deng Ning was angry, Deng you knelt down on the ground with a plop and said, "master, Lao Nusheng is a member of the Deng family, and death is the ghost of the Deng family. Lao Nu and Zhang Xiu are irreconcilable. "


    "Let''s do it," Deng said


    Deng you''s throat rolled twice. Finally, he lowered his head and said, "I''ll obey you."


    "Go


    Dunning waved his hand.


    After Deng you stepped down, Dunning sat alone in the room, looking excited. He clenched his fist and muttered to himself, "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, I''d like to see how you can resist the Huns?"

 Chapter 80

    Wuyin County, located in the east of Nanyang County, borders on Runan County.


    This place is in the north of Yuyang county. According to the agreement between Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao, it should be taken over by Zhang Xiu and under the jurisdiction of Zhang Xiu. But Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County for a few months, and there was no transfer of Wuyin county magistrate. He still worked in Wuyin county.


    But just recently, Wuyin county magistrate and his confidant County Wei left in a hurry, leaving the county magistrate in charge of Wuyin county.


    The reason is that the Huns entered Nanyang.


    Although the Huns have not yet arrived in Wuyin County, the words "Huns" naturally have a deterrent effect.


    Wuyin county is full of fear.


    So as soon as the news came, Wuyin county magistrate simply informed his confidants and left with a group of people.


    Wuyin County Cheng, named Chen Fu.


    In his early 40s, he has been the county magistrate of Wuyin county. Although the county magistrate left, everything was Chen Fu has the final say, but the news of the Huns killed, the ups and down, and Chen Fu carries great pressure.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the study, there are yamen officers reporting.


    Chen Fu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The Yamen servant replied, "report back to you, and come to see you."


    Chen Fu said, "let him in."


    After a while, a young man in his early twenties, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and angular cheeks, strode in.


    Young people are born dignified and handsome. A white robe in the body, let a person in front of a bright.


    "Uncle!"


    The young man entered, bowed to Chen Fu, and then sat down in the room.


    Chen Fu said, "Uncle Zhi, what can I do for you?"


    The young man''s name is Chen Zhi, and his name is Shu Zhi. He is from Runan, Yuzhou. His Uncle Chen Fu is the county magistrate of Wuyin. For a month and a half, Chen Dao has been around Chen Fu, looking for opportunities to become an official.


    It''s just that Chen Fu and Wuyin county magistrate don''t deal with it, so Chen Dao''s work hasn''t been carried out.


    Chen Dao said: "uncle, nephew is ready to leave Wuyin county."


    "Leave, why?"


    Chen Fu frowned and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhi, originally the county magistrate was in Wuyin county. He blocked me from resettling you everywhere, making you unable to enter the officialdom and show your ambition."


    "If Wuyin magistrate is here, I won''t stop you from leaving. After all, I can''t find a way."


    "But now, the county magistrate and the county captain leave, which gives me a chance. Although it''s a certain risk to stay in Wuyin County, it''s more than enough if you can lead the army to block the Huns and serve as a county captain when the Huns come. "


    "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How can we miss it?"


    Chen Fu''s tone was a little harsh, and he scolded: "I''ve been waiting for more than a month. Do you still care about the time of one or two days? Uncle Zhi, listen to my uncle. If you stay in Wuyin County for a while, you will have a place. "


    Chen Dao said firmly: "uncle, nephew has decided. I''m here to say goodbye to you. "


    Chen Fu asked, "are you going back to Runan?"


    "No!"


    Chen Dao shook his head and said, "I''m going to fight against Xiongnu with Zhang Xiu."


    "Ah?"


    Chen Fu frowned and was very surprised. He said, "before you entered Wuyin County, you said that Zhang Xiu was a Wufu and a vicious Xiliang army. You don''t want to go to Zhang Xiu. Why do you want to go to him now? "


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji led their troops into Nanyang County to plunder grain, which was clear to Chen.


    Therefore, he doesn''t like Zhang Xiu.


    It was only when Zhang Xiu won Cai Mao and made Liu Biao yield that Zhang Xiu had the opportunity to establish herself in Yuyang county.


    But after all, Chen Dao has no good impression on Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just a soldier ruffian.


    Although Chen Dao was not born in a big family, he was also a scholar. Chen Dao''s eyes flashed with brilliance and said, "so my nephew is going to join him."


    Chen Fu thought about it and said, "I don''t know what Zhang Xiu is. If you go to Zhang Xiu, you may not be able to get the reuse of Zhang Xiu. But if you stay in Wuyin County, you can at least become an official first. Shuzhi, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "


    Chen Zhi raised his head and threw his voice to the ground: "nephew, I''m going to go to Zhang Xiu for nothing else, just to resist the Xiongnu."


    "I don''t want to be popular with the princes, I just want to do my part."


    "As for the others, no consideration was given."


    "If Zhang Xiu is willing to reuse his nephew, his nephew will work for him."


    "If you can defeat the Huns, you will follow his nephew."


    Chen Dao said, "you choose your ministers, and so do your ministers."


    Chen Fu felt Chen Dao''s firm determination and said, "since you have a decision, my uncle will not stop you. Early this morning, there was news from Wan county that Zhang Xiu defeated Wei Yan and killed him. Estimate, Zhang Xiu straight to Wan county. If you go directly to Wan County, you may meet Zhang Xiu. "


    Chen to eyebrows up, surprised: "Zhang Xiu beat Wei Yan? Impossible. Anyway, Wei Yan is Liu Biao''s strong general. He has a lot of strength. How can he lose so quickly? "Chen Fu also shook his head and said, "I don''t know the details."


    Chen said: "although Zhang Xiu was born in the Xiliang army, she was not very good, but her ability is not simple. When he was in Yuyang County, he first took in the Jinfan thief Gan Ning, then killed Liu PI and Gong Du, and destroyed the Deng family in Nanyang Xinye. It was really powerful. "


    "It''s the same thing," Chen said. "My uncle expects you to be reused by him."


    With that, Chen Fu ordered people to take 10000 yuan and give it to Chen Dao. Then he asked people to take some dry food to Chen Dao and said, "it''s a long way to Wan County, so we must pay attention to safety."


    "Uncle Xie."


    Chen Dao nodded solemnly and said, "take care of yourself, uncle."


    "Go," Chen said


    "Goodbye!"


    Chen Dao bowed and bowed, carrying his luggage out of the study. He left the hall of the county government, took the white horse, took the silver gun, strode out of the county government, turned over to mount the horse, and drove the horse away from Wuyin county.


    The autumn wind is bleak.


    A white figure disappeared in the street.

 Chapter 81

    The northernmost part of Nanyang County is Danshui county.


    This place was conquered by the Huns, and all the officials in the county fled. Many people in Danshui county have also fled early. After the Xiongnu people killed in the city, the county seat was destroyed and empty.


    On the street, there were bodies everywhere.


    Blood was everywhere in the streets.


    All the houses around had been burned by the fire and became scorched earth.


    Once the bustling county is gone, it has become a miasma and a hell on earth.


    In the county, in the south gate.


    There are countless Huns gathered here, with nearly 2000 people.


    Two thousand Hun cavalry, coming and going like the wind, is extremely difficult to deal with. However, it will not be difficult for the city to resist. After all, what the Huns are good at is fighting in the field. If they really let the Huns attack the city, that''s their weakness.


    However, the officials of Danshui County, greedy for life and afraid of death, fled one by one, which led to the easy capture of the city by the Hun cavalry.


    The head of this group of Hun cavalry was named huchuquan.


    This man is Zuo Xian king of Xiongnu.


    His position was second only to that of the Huns.


    At this moment, huchuquan is sitting cross legged, wearing a felt hat, wearing fur clothes, holding a delicate short machete, cutting meat a little bit.


    He ate pork.


    Now what we find in the city is pork, so huchuquan asked the soldiers to kill the pigs for barbecue.


    At this time, a big, strong old man came. He has a swallow''s chin and a tiger''s beard. He is the confidant of huchuquan.


    His name is Wu Jihou.


    He came to huchuquan and bowed himself to salute. He said respectfully, "King Zuoxian, we entered Nanyang County this time and got 100000 Jin of grain, 800 women and some money and cloth. For us, it has been a bumper harvest. You see, shall we withdraw and return to Hanoi county? "


    Huchuquan is located in Hanoi county.


    After passing through Hongnong, the army went north to Hanoi.


    Hu Chuquan ate a piece of medium cooked meat and nodded: "we have gained a lot in this trip. It''s time to withdraw. There''s no point in going further south. "


    "Zuo Xian, Wang Yingming!"


    Wu Ji Hou bowed down, and his heart was full of joy. This time he went to Danshui county. He got a lot of money and captured two beautiful women. He made a lot of money.


    "Newspaper!"


    Soon, a soldier came running quickly.


    The soldier came to huchuquan, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "Qi you, King Zuoxian, there is an old man outside the city. He said that his name is Deng you, and he has something important to report to the king


    Huchuquan asked, "is it a Han?"


    "Yes


    The soldier replied.


    Huchuquan laughed and said, "it''s funny. It''s funny. Some Han people came to ask for help. I''m curious to bring people here. What does he want to say? "


    Wu Ji Hou said with a smile: "Zuo Xian Wang, maybe the people who come here will send us food and women."


    "It''s possible, too."


    There is also a touch of expectation in huchu spring.


    Not long after, Deng you came to the south gate. He was among a group of Huns. He looked calm and didn''t panic. But Deng you was surrounded by a businessman who was familiar with Xiongnu dialect.


    With Deng you, he was trembling.


    If it wasn''t for the duress of the Deng family, he would never have come.


    Deng you was taken to huchuquan by the soldiers. After being introduced by the soldiers and translated by the people around him, he knew the identity of huchuquan and immediately said, "Deng you, Nanyang County, meet Mr. Zuo Xianwang."


    Hu Chuquan listened to the translation and said in a deep voice, "what can I do for you


    Deng you said: "in Danshui County, there are two things. The first thing is to present a notice, which is closely related to Zuo Xianwang. "


    With these words, he took out the slave killing order posted by Zhang Xiu from his sleeve and handed it to Hu Chuquan.


    After huchuquan took it, he couldn''t understand the notice and said, "what''s this?"


    Deng you explained: "this is the notice issued by Zhang Xiu of Yuyang county. First, Zhang Xiu led the army to attack you. Second, Zhang Xiu said that the Huns should be killed. He told people of insight in Nanyang County that he would offer a reward to kill you and your soldiers."


    Immediately, Deng you said the details of the notice.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When huchuquan heard this, he felt angry.


    He was furious.


    It''s a great shame to be offered a reward by a Han two legged sheep for being a people of Kunlun God.


    It''s time to kill!


    Zhang Xiu should be killed!


    Although huchuquan was angry, he didn''t kill him. His eyes narrowed and he looked at the old man in front of him. He said slowly, "if Zhang Xiu dies, I will take off his head. Why did you take the initiative to tip off the news? "


    This is the focus of huchuquan.When people in front of them come to report the news, they must have a plan.


    Deng you didn''t hide it either. He said, "this is the second thing. I come from the Deng family in Xinye, Nanyang County. I, the Deng family in Xinye, is a big family in Nanyang County, but it was destroyed by Zhang Xiu. "


    "Now, the owner of our Deng family has mastered Wan County, Nanyang County. He hopes that Zuo Xianwang can go south to attack Zhang Xiu."


    "If you ask a little bit about the Deng family and Zhang Xiu, you''ll know."


    Deng you said: "as long as Zuo Xian Wang is willing to go south to avenge the Deng family, the family owner is willing to give 20000 stone grain and some money and silk as a reward."


    Before Deng you left, Dunning told him that the bottom line was 30000 stone grain.


    He changed it to 20000 stones.


    In Deng you''s opinion, the Huns were insatiable of greed and would not be satisfied with it. Let''s try it out with 20000 stones.


    "Twenty thousand stones!"


    Huchuquan smell speech, eyebrows raised.


    He broke the county seat of Danshui county and got only about 100000 Jin of grain. Just a WAN County, can take out 20000 stone grain, but huchuquan some doubt.


    At this time, Wu Ji Hou came.


    In his eyes, Wu Ji Hou looked greedy and said, "Zuo Xian Wang, Wan county is the seat of Nanyang County. There are countless women and food. It is not difficult to take out 20000 stone grain. But we can''t just be satisfied with these 20000 stone grains, we have to ask for more. "


    Huchuquan smell speech, eyes become bright up, smile: "good, good, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."


    After a pause, he looked at Deng you and said, "I want 30000 stone grain, 3000 swords, 1000 sets of armor, and 1000 pieces of brocade. I still need 100000 yuan."


    "Hiss!"


    Hearing this, Deng you couldn''t help taking a breath.


    Huchuquan is a lion''s mouth.


    If we give them food, we have to give them swords and armour. It''s totally helping the tyrant.


    However, Deng you has nothing to do. He knows such a condition, and dunning will certainly agree to it. But Deng you''s heart, but not willing to agree, said: "Zuo Xian Wang, although Wan county can take out food, but wan county''s chief General Wei Yan led the troops to meet Zhang Xiu. He took all the armor and swords, and it was difficult for WAN county to take out so many weapons. Wei Yan, in particular, has died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    Huchuquan heard the speech, thought about it, looked at Wu Jihou and said, "what do you think?"


    Wu Ji Hou said: "yes!"


    With that, Wu Ji Hou blinked, and there was a sly look in his eyes.


    Huchuquan and wujihou have been together for many years, and they immediately understood the meaning of wujihou. When Wu Jihou asked him to promise, it was a false promise. When he really arrived in Wan county and let Dunning fulfill his promise, he entered Wan county and plundered wantonly.


    That''s the way to grab.


    When the time comes, you can make a lot of money.


    Hu Chuquan had a faint smile on his face and said, "Deng you, I''ve agreed to your terms. Thirty thousand stones, grain, a thousand brocades, and some money. "


    "Good!"


    Deng you nodded.


    After a pause, Deng you asked, "I don''t know when Zuo Xianwang will send troops to the south? Zhang Xiu killed Wei Yan, but the family leader was in Wan County, and his troops were insufficient. When Zhang Xiu arrives in Wan County, the owner can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack. If Zuo Xianwang wants to go south, he must go earlier. Otherwise, when Zhang Xiu takes Wan County, it will be difficult to defeat him. "


    Huchuquan big sleeve a brush, way: "the king''s army closely follow, will send troops south.". You go back to Wan county first, and let your master stay in Wan county and fight for time. "


    "Here it is


    Deng you should go down.


    He stopped staying, got up and left.


    Huchuquan looked at Deng you''s back. As soon as he turned his eyes, he looked at Wu Jihou and said in a deep voice, "do you think this is a conspiracy of the Han people?"


    "No


    With a greedy look in his eyes, Wu Jihou said: "just now, he has made it clear that the Deng family and Zhang Xiu in Nanyang share a bitter hatred. Such things are very easy to find out. "


    "So it is


    Huchuquan nodded and his face was full of expectation.


    If we can win Wan County, we can definitely make a lot of money this time.

 Chapter 82

    Zhang Xiu led her troops northward from Wuji mountain, and she was on her way very fast. He sent sentries to inquire about Wan County while waiting for the sentries from Danshui county to deliver the message.


    The situation of Wan County, first step back.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that the person guarding Wan county was Deng Ning, who was the new owner of the Deng family, he was worried.


    Zhang Xiu and the Deng family are irreconcilable.


    With the blood feud between Zhang Xiu and the Deng family, it is impossible for Deng Ning to let go of the feud. In order to find out the situation of Deng Ning, Zhang Xiu specially asked the soldiers who surrendered in the army about Deng Ning.


    These soldiers, they all know about Dunning.


    Dunning is the county magistrate of Wan county. The reason why he came to Wan county is to help Wei Yan resist Zhang Xiu.


    After knowing the situation clearly, Zhang Xiu knew that he wanted to go north to kill Xiongnu. If the crisis in Wan county was not solved, he would attack Xiongnu in the north of Wan County, and dunning would make trouble in the rear.


    If you want to kill the Huns, you have to kill Dunning first.


    But wan county is strong. Even if Wan county is weak, Zhang Xiu can win it, but it is not something that can be accomplished overnight.


    As Zhang Xiu was on her way, she was thinking about how to break Wan county. Zhang Xiu couldn''t delay her time and stay too long in Wan county when she went north to meet Xiongnu. Therefore, to control Wan County, she had to win by thunder.


    Gradually, Zhang Xiu had a complete plan.


    At noon.


    The army stopped and cooked.


    Zhang Xiu called Gan Ning to her side and said something about Deng Ning. Then she said, "there is Deng Ning in Wan county. He hates the general and wants revenge."


    "If we don''t get rid of dunning, the rear will be unstable and unable to go all out to meet the Huns."


    "And we can''t delay."


    "So I decided to go to Wan county and sneak into the city to kill Dunning."


    "As long as Deng Ning dies, Wan county will be defeated by itself. If we quickly control Wan County, we can go all out to fight against Huns. That''s the quickest way. It won''t waste too much time. "


    Zhang Xiu put forward some suggestions.


    This is his well thought out plan. Only in this way can we save time as much as possible.


    Gan Ning thought for a moment and suggested, "my Lord, it''s a certain risk to go to Wan county to take action. General Mo suggests that you stay in the army to lead the troops and go to carry out the task. "


    "No, I have to go myself."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with light and said: "you are good at fighting, but you may not be good at lurking and assassinating. It''s something I''m good at, and I''m the best person to do it. "


    Through to later generations, Zhang Xiu, as a special force in the army, is very familiar with lurking, assassination, sniping and so on.


    Gan Ning smell speech, but in the heart is beginning to mutter, Zhang Xiu in the end what can''t? In Ganning''s initial impression, Zhang Xiu is a martial arts man, just like him.


    However, Zhang Xiu can recite poems and write Fu.


    Yi Ji and Li Heng, the famous scholars in Jingzhou, are both willing to be inferior. In addition, Zhang Xiu was able to make instruments. The Quyuan plow, invented by Zhang Xiu, has become popular in Yuyang County, and even new-style bobbins began to appear.


    This kind of Zhang Xiu has already made Gan Ning''s mind full of fog and water, unable to understand Zhang Xiu.


    He just thinks, what else can''t be done?


    Gan Ning took a deep breath and said, "now that the Lord has made a decision, the general will lead the soldiers on their way at the normal speed. When does the Lord plan to act? "


    "After lunch, I''ll take ten elite soldiers with me," Zhang said


    Ganning said: "we must be cautious in our official business."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "don''t worry!"


    With a smile, he was confident, not nervous or worried. Without Wei Yan''s power, although Dunning was stationed in Wan County, there were few troops and weak strength in Wan county.


    After lunch, Zhang Xiu took some dry food with her and ten soldiers on her way. In the evening, he arrived outside the South Gate of Wan county.


    In Wan County today, it is necessary to verify the identity of people entering and leaving the county. Zhang Xiu and the soldiers around her were all armed, so it was not easy to enter directly, so they didn''t enter through the gate.


    After dark, Zhang Xiu and her soldiers began to climb the city wall and turn into the city. Although the city wall of Wan county is strong, it is less than three feet high. It can easily be turned into the city with hook and claw.


    After entering the city, the party, dressed in night clothes, first contacted the spies in the city, and then went straight to the county government.


    Arriving at the county government, Zhang Xiu sneaks in with people.


    Today''s county government defense is not strong. After entering, Zhang Xiu finds a servant to coerce the other party and asks the location of Dunning''s study.


    Zhang Xiu quietly came to the study, only to see the bright lights in the study, there are two figures, with the oil lamp swaying and slightly shaking.


    Zhang Xiu let four soldiers lurk in the courtyard door defense, with the rest of the people quickly touch in, came to the door of the study.


    At the moment, there was a sound coming from the room.


    In the study.Deng Ning and Deng you took their seats.


    Deng you had returned to Wan county. He looked solemn and said, "master, the old Nu has met huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu. When he heard that Zhang Xiu had issued the order to kill the Huns, he was so angry that he immediately said that he would take the soldiers south to kill the Huns. "


    Dunning burst into laughter.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Dunning said three good words in a row.


    In Dunning''s view, as long as the Huns are willing to go south, the killing of Zhang Xiu is a matter of certainty.


    Zhang Xiu hiding in the study, just heard this scene.


    He clenched his fist and his chest was full of murders.


    In order to get revenge, Dunning dared to collude with the Huns and was willing to drive for them. It was time to kill them. But Zhang Xiu''s heart, but also open.


    It was huchuquan.


    This is Zuo Xian king of Xiongnu. He is a big fish.


    Zhang Xiu repressed peiran''s killing intention in her chest and continued to listen.


    Dunning asked: "what are the conditions for huchuquan to go south to Wan county? Even if we said that the order to kill slaves would stimulate him, it would not benefit him. He would not go south. "


    Deng you bowed his body and said, "huchuquan wants 30000 stone grains, 1000 brocades and some money. Originally, huchuquan needed more weapons and armor. The old slave said that Wei Yan died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, so huchuquan changed his decision. "


    "Thirty thousand stone grain, in exchange for huchuquan going south, it''s worth it!"


    Deng Ning''s eyes are full of hate, gnashing his teeth: "do not kill Zhang Xiu, I will never stop."


    Deng you worried: "master, the Huns went south to Wan county. I''m afraid that many people in Wan county would suffer. Do you want to order the people in Wan county to hide? As long as the people avoid the Huns going south, they will suffer less. "


    "No need!"


    "There''s no need for such a thing," said dunning, waving his hand. Because the news of the Huns going south has long been spread. Those who want to flee have already fled. If you don''t want to escape, no matter how much notice you give, it''s useless. "


    When Deng you heard that, he was disappointed.


    It''s OK to take revenge, but it''s harmful to the innocent, but it''s not benevolent.


    Deng you can''t blame Deng Ning, once again advised: "what about the city? The old Nu believed that when the Huns went south to attack Zhang Xiu, they would most likely go to Wan county first and let you take out food and money. Then, they will attack Zhang Xiu. Once the Huns enter the city, we can''t restrain them. They may plunder the people. Let the people out of the city to escape, also can let them from danger


    Listening to Deng you''s words, Deng Ning''s eyes cooled down and said in a deep voice: "Deng you, you persuade people everywhere. First, talk about the people in Wan County, and then talk about the people in Wan county. Do you mean it''s wrong for me to let the Huns go south? "


    Deng you fell down on his knees and kowtowed: "master, I dare not. Lao Nu dare not have this idea. Lao Nu''s life is a member of the Deng family, and his death is a ghost of the Deng family. Zhang Xiu killed my Deng family. Zhang Xiu should die. But these countless people are innocent. "


    "Are they innocent?" said Dunning? Is it not innocent that my Deng family is full of people? "


    Deng you is dumb immediately, he also does not know how to say.


    "Bang Dang!"


    Suddenly, the door of the study was directly knocked open: "good dunning, heartless, inhuman, should be killed!"


    A loud voice came into the room.


    "Who?"


    Dunning heard the sound from the door and looked up. Seeing someone break in, he cold face, scolded: "who are you, dare to break into the county government without authorization."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "dunning, you have been thinking about killing Ben Jiang. Now, Ben is in the future. "

 Chapter 83

    "You, you, you are Zhang Xiu?"


    Dunning''s eyes widened. His handsome face was full of disbelief. He said, "you are not leading troops on the way to Wan county. How can you sneak into the city suddenly?"


    Zhang Xiu strode in, with a joking look in her eyes: "you dunning, jijiying want to kill me. Now I appear in front of you, not just with your mind. Why, not welcome? "


    Dunning is still a little confused.


    He is a weak scholar, Zhang Xiu is a brave man, the strength of the two sides is too big. In the case that Zhang Xiu has entered the study, he can''t stop Zhang Xiu at all.


    Deng Ning took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down and asked: "Zhang Xiu, what are you going to do?"


    "Kill you!"


    Zhang Xiu''s firm answer.


    Like dunning, there is no bottom line, heartless people, stay in this world, it is bound to be endless trouble.


    "Zhang Xiu, you can''t kill me, you can''t kill me," he said


    "When you come to the county government, you are in the net."


    "As long as I roar, the soldiers in the county government will come to the rescue immediately. The soldiers arrive. With your strength, even if you can hold me, you can''t run away. "


    "I advise you to leave at once."


    Deng Ning threatened Zhang Xiu, hoping to resolve the crisis, said: "as long as you leave the county government, I don''t think it happened."


    He even calculated in his heart.


    As long as Zhang Xiu left the county government, he immediately dispatched troops to search for Zhang Xiu and wanted him to catch her.


    With a cold smile, Zhang Xiu said, "I''m the one Zhang Xiu wants to kill. I''ll let your tongue shine and your sophistry do nothing. You must die today. "


    "Sonorous!"


    Longquan sword scabbard, Zhang Xiu sword, stride toward Deng Ning.


    With Deng Ning''s eloquence, it is impossible to persuade Zhang Xiu, nor to bewitch and frighten her.


    "Master, old slave, hold Zhang Xiu and run."


    Deng you suddenly stands up and rushes directly to Zhang Xiu. He clenched his teeth with a look of regret. He is a member of the Deng family. Even if Dunning is wrong, even if Dunning''s behavior is unjust, he would rather die to protect Dunning''s safety.


    Dunning did not hesitate to run straight out.


    "Help


    Dunning''s mouth, shouting.


    Hysterical shouts reverberated in the study and came out of the yard.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Deng you, raised her leg and kicked out.


    "Pa!"


    With a kick in Deng you''s heart, Deng you snorted, looked up and fell to the ground. After he fell down, he felt his heart was blocked and his face was full of pain.


    Zhang Xiu''s kick is not light or heavy, which just makes Deng you fall down and makes Deng you unable to gather strength.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Deng Ning.


    Dunning still ran to the door of the study, but as soon as he rushed to the door, he was stopped by the soldiers at the door.


    "Let me go, get out of here!"


    Dunning yelled and struggled. But under the suppression of the soldiers, Dunning''s struggle can only bring pain.


    The strength of the soldiers'' hooping made Dunning''s arm extremely painful.


    Zhang Xiu holds the sword and goes on.


    Step by step, he went to dunning, and every step down seemed to trample on Dunning''s heart and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, my people are coming soon. If you want to kill me, you can''t escape. "


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile of evil spirit in the corner of her mouth, disdaining to say: "at the gate of the yard, there are soldiers who will guard. It''s impossible to break in as far as you are concerned. You can''t escape. "


    The distance between the two sides is less than ten steps.


    Every time Zhang Xiu approached, Deng Ning''s face turned pale. His body could not stop shaking, no longer tough, begging for mercy: "no, don''t kill me. Zhang Xiu, I''m wrong. I''m willing to submit to you, just ask you not to kill me. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu replied coldly.


    He showed his intention to kill in his eyes, and said: "if you don''t kill people like you, there will be endless trouble. You are a Han nationality, and you are even more ashamed of your ancestors and the yellow blood flowing in your body. You, damn it


    "Ah


    When Deng Ning heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he could not help shivering.


    Suddenly, a smell of urine came out from under his crotch, followed by a pool of water stains flowing out on the ground.


    Dunning was so scared that he was incontinent.


    "No, don''t kill me."


    Deng Ning can''t help shaking his head, but Zhang Xiu is getting closer to him.


    When Zhang Xiu was less than three steps away from Deng Ning, when Zhang Xiu''s Longquan sword was raised, the blade of the sword would stab out. The sharp point of the sword easily pierced Dunning''s heart, and a sword penetrated his heart.


    As soon as the dragon Yuan sword was drawn out, blood spattered out.


    Dunning''s face was full of pain after his heart burst, which made his body tremble more severely. His face, is also more and more pale, keep saying don''t want to die.


    A moment later, Dunning lost his breath."Master!"


    Deng you looked sad and cried out.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Deng you. He has a good impression on Deng you. Although Deng you is subservient to Deng Ning, the conversation between Deng you and Deng Ning just now is full of consideration for the people and does not want to affect the people.


    This is a man with a bottom line.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Deng Ning is dead. Although you help the tyrant, you are merciful. I''ll spare you one death."


    Deng you said with a miserable smile: "the Deng family has done evil by themselves and can''t live. The owners are dead. I''m an old man. What''s the point of living? It''s meaningless. "


    He himself was close to the beam, and with all his strength, he ran into the beam.


    "Bang!"


    The crash came out.


    Deng you''s head was bleeding and he died on the spot.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said with emotion: "a servant has such blood, which is admirable and pitiful. It''s a pity that you are with the wrong person. In the next life, don''t follow the wrong person again. "


    He looked at the soldiers beside him and said, "take Dunning''s body and leave with me."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers dragged Dunning''s body out.


    At the gate of the courtyard, there was a sound of killing, but after a moment, the sound subsided. When Zhang Xiu and others came to the gate of the yard, there were more than ten people lying on the ground, all of them were killed.


    Zhang Xiu was very satisfied with the speed of the soldiers and said, "close the gate and back door immediately. No one is allowed to go in and out. In addition, gather all the people of your family into the hall. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers dispersed at once.


    Zhang Xiu takes Deng Ning''s body and waits in the hall.


    It''s not long. Everyone''s here.


    There are more than 30 people in the county yamen. Except for more than 10 yamen servants, the rest are servants.


    One by one, they were very scared.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "we all stay in the hall honestly. We will not embarrass you. If someone wants to make something, don''t blame Ben for being rude. Dunning, it''s a lesson. "


    One after another, they shake their heads.


    Dunning''s dead. They don''t dare do anything.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to guard, then went out of the hall and sat quietly in the yard.


    He''s waiting for Ganning to arrive.


    After Ganning arrives, Zhang Xiu can take Dunning''s body to the gate of the city, force the soldiers to open the gate, and then take control of Wan county.


    This is the fastest speed.


    Only in this way, it will not delay the time to go north to resist the Huns.


    Zhang Xiu was sitting alone, but she was also thinking about Dunning and the Huns. According to the conversation between Deng Ning and Deng you, Deng Ning has reached an agreement with Hu Chuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu, that the Xiongnu people will go south to Wan county.


    In particular, Deng you once said that huchuquan asked for food and cloth. As soon as he arrived in Wan County, he might enter the city.


    Into the city?


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and a light suddenly flashed in her brain.


    A plan, rapid prototyping.


    Zhang Xiu soon had an idea, he directly ordered: "Yang Ling!"


    "Yes


    Yang Ling answers with a fist.


    Yang Ling is in his early twenties. He is a soldier who entered the city with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go out of the city immediately and wait outside the city. As long as Gan Ning''s army arrives this evening, let him gather outside the south gate and send an arrow. At that time, I will take people to the south gate and force the soldiers to open the gate and let them enter the city


    "Here it is


    Yang Ling left directly.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged for Yang Ling, she called for a soldier to wait near the south gate. The purpose is to let the soldiers observe the movement outside the city. As long as there is a loud arrow outside the city, they will come back immediately to report it, so that Zhang Xiu can take action.

 Chapter 84

    On September night, the heat of the day faded away, and the evening wind was gentle and comfortable.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting in the yard.


    His plan to deal with the Huns was completely clear. Every step of the action, every step of the arrangement, has been in mind.


    In the early morning, footsteps came from the gate of the yard.


    A soldier came quickly and said, "general, the army led by Ganning has arrived outside the city."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "take Dunning''s body and follow me to the south gate."


    "Here it is


    The soldier carries Deng Ning''s body and leaves the county government with Zhang Xiu.


    After a short time, they came to Nanmen city. In the South Gate of Wan County, the number of garrisons is not large, but there are soldiers stationed all night.


    When Zhang Xiu and his party swaggered and appeared, the sound spread to the upper floor of the city. Soon they were found by the soldiers on the upper floor of the city. The responsible captain yelled, "who''s down there?"


    "I am Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhang Xiu answered loudly.


    When this remark came out, there was an uproar on the tower.


    In this period of time, the name of Zhang Xiu, repeatedly appeared, has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.


    "Gather, gather!"


    The captain on the tower, shouting to gather.


    When Zhang Xiu heard the shouts of the captain on the city floor, she took a dozen soldiers around her and went up the gallop to the city floor.


    In the middle of the walk, the captain had already led the soldiers to kill him.


    It''s just that all the soldiers around the captain are old and weak. When he saw Zhang Xiu coming, he stood ready and looked around for fear of ambush.


    Zhang Xiu pointed to Deng Ning''s body and said: "Wei Yan died in the hands of the general, and Deng Ning was also killed. Are you going to fight again? "


    Seeing that there was no one around, the captain said, "Zhang Xiu, with these ten of you, there is no doubt that you will die."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and replied: "Wei Yanwu is a good artist, and he is not as good as his general. In the eyes of this general, you are just a local chicken and a local dog. The general''s army is out of the city. You are fighting hard, but you are just going to die. "


    "Let go of the arrow!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    "Whew!"


    A loud arrow took off, and the sharp sound of breaking through the air came out of the city.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war began to ring from outside the city.


    Gan Ning was ambushing outside the city. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s order, he took his soldiers out and came directly outside the city to shout.


    The dense army appeared, which made the soldiers stationed in the city tremble.


    One by one, they are extremely worried.


    After all, there are only 300 soldiers in the south gate, and there are more than 1000 soldiers in the other gates. These soldiers were all remnant soldiers left by Wei Yan after he took them away. They had weak combat effectiveness and poor psychological quality.


    They don''t have the courage to fight.


    If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu, the soldiers would have thrown down their weapons and fled as soon as they saw Gan Ning''s flag.


    For a moment, the captain was in a dilemma.


    There is a large army of Zhang Xiu outside the city. Deng Ning is dead inside the city. What should he do?


    Knowing that the other party was shocked, Zhang Xiu continued: "according to the agreement between Ben Jiang and Liu Biao, all the counties in the north of Yuyang county are controlled by Ben Jiang. So Wan county is the jurisdiction of this general. It was wrong for Liu Biao to let Wei Yanlai serve as county magistrate. Do you really want to resist? "


    After the captain heard this, he saw the performance of his soldiers and did not insist any more.


    It''s not that we don''t fight, it''s that we can''t stop it.


    "I will come down!"


    The captain plopped down on his knees and chose to surrender.


    The soldiers behind him, one by one, were relieved to hear the captain''s decision. They all knelt down and cried out to surrender.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "get up!"


    "General Xie!"


    The captain and the generals, get up and thank you.


    Zhang Xiu said, "open the gate."


    "Here it is


    The captain leaned out of the lane and gave a loud order: "open the gate."


    The soldiers in charge of guarding the gate stood up and opened the gate.


    Ganning said with great joy: "enter the city!"


    As soon as he took the lead, he entered the city first. Under the command of the soldiers, followed by orderly into the city. After a while, Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "seize the time, immediately control the four gates."


    "Here it is


    Ganning quickly arranged it.


    Less than half an hour later, Zhang Xiu took over the city defense of Wan county. More than a thousand old and weak soldiers gathered in the barracks to avoid trouble.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the county government again, it was almost midnight.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Gan Ning and Huang Zhao and tells them about Deng Ning''s collusion with Huns.Both of them were filled with indignation.


    Gan Ning clenched his fist and gritted his teeth: "Dunning is worthy of death. The Lord killed dunning, and it''s cheap. In my opinion, it''s time to put him to death. "


    "That''s it


    Huang Zhao followed suit.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Dunning is really damned, but he''s just an insignificant pawn. The Huns we are going to face next are the protagonists. According to Deng you''s words, the Huns will enter the city first, so I''m ready to make plans. "


    Gan Ning said, "is the Lord going to ambush the Huns in the city?"


    "That''s true," Zhang said


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the plan in detail, every step of the plan, Zhang Xiu explained clearly.


    After that, Zhang Xiu said, "Huang Zhao, your task is to lead 600 soldiers out of the city and camp fifteen miles outside the city. You must pretend to be tens of thousands of soldiers, and the fortifications must be well arranged to confuse the Huns. "


    Huang Zhao said, "I will obey you."


    He led the troops to camp outside the city, did not take part in the battle, and won easily.


    After arranging Huang Zhao''s affairs, Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and arranged all the things to be done. Finally, she said, "Gan Ning, when the Huns go south, they must go to the north gate to enter the city. All the people in Beimen city must be relocated to facilitate the implementation of the plan. "


    "I understand


    Gan Ning nodded solemnly.


    He knew that all the Huns were cavalry. To wipe out all the Huns, they must be cheated into the city. According to Zhang Xiu''s plan, all the Huns could be wiped out.


    Ganning is very excited at the moment.


    As long as the Huns arrive in Wan County, they will die in it.


    This is the Hun burial ground.


    Zhang Xiu arranged things, waved his hand and said: "Huang Zhao led the soldiers out of the city in the night, Gan Ning to have a rest."


    "Here it is


    After Huang Zhao and Gan Ning left, Zhang Xiu finally relaxed. Next, what Zhang Xiu wants to do is to wait quietly for the arrival of huchuquan.


    Zhang Xiu is clear about huchuquan.


    The full name of huchuquan is luanti huchuquan. But most of the time, it is called huchuquan. This man is the son of Chanyu luanti qiangqu, the southern Xiongnu, and the younger brother of Chanyu luanti yufuluo.


    In history, he fought against Cao Cao and surrendered to him after defeat. But soon after that, he betrayed Cao Cao again, but he was defeated by Cao Cao again and became a puppet for Cao Cao to control the southern Xiongnu.


    Cao Cao is willing to surrender to huchuquan, but Zhang Xiu is not.


    Zhang Xiu''s attitude has only one word.


    Kill!


    He didn''t want to play any tricks on the Huns, and he didn''t need to support the puppets. If a Hun invades the border, he will kill him completely.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s attitude.

 Chapter 85

    Dark night, Wan County outside the city.


    On the official road, one person and one rider are on their way quickly.


    The young man on horseback, no one else, is Chen Dao. He went down from Wuyin county to Wan county. But on the way, I met a Xiongnu leader with more than ten people robbing merchants on the official road.


    Chen Zhi killed more than ten Huns and captured the head of the Huns. He seized the Xiongnu leader and wanted to interrogate the route of the Xiongnu people going south.


    Because he couldn''t speak, he couldn''t find out the result. Fortunately, the plundered merchants walked around and understood the Hun language. Through interrogation, Chen Dao learned that the Huns wanted to go south to Wan county to join Dunning.


    Chen Zhi was furious when he learned that Dunning had colluded with the Huns.


    As a Han Chinese, he even colluded with the Huns to harm his own compatriots. It''s really damned.


    Chen Dao''s original plan was to go to Zhang Xiu first, and then fight against Xiongnu with Zhang Xiu. But thinking of the harm of dunning, he changed his mind and prepared to sneak into Wan County, kill Dunning first, and then take Dunning''s head to work for Zhang Xiu.


    So Chen came all night.


    The look on Chen Dao''s face can''t wait.


    He has to act at night.


    After daybreak, there were many people with mixed eyes, and there were guards around him. Even Dunning might go to the tower of Wan county. At that time, Chen to want to take dunning, it is almost impossible.


    So Chen went on a fast journey.


    In a moment, Chen Dao drove his horse out of the city and finally arrived at his destination. He tied his horse to the woods outside the city, took the long gun from the horse''s back, took out the climbing hook and claw, and found a remote place to climb the city wall.


    Chen Dao had excellent martial arts skills, so he entered the city easily.


    When he came to the city, he went straight to the county government.


    Two and a half minutes later, Chen Yin arrived at the County Hall.


    Time is running out.


    Chen Dao looked at the county yamen of Wan county. A cold color appeared in his eyes and murmured: "today I will do justice for heaven. Dunning, Dunning, you and Zhang Xiu have conflicts. That''s your business. You should never collude with the Huns. This is absolutely not allowed. "


    He came over the wall with a long gun on his back.


    Entering the county government, he ran straight to the backyard of the county government.


    He sneaked all the way, along the way to meet the soldiers on guard, also no trouble, directly knock people dizzy, all the way to touch Zhang Xiu living outside the yard.


    Chen Dao didn''t ask anyone, but looking at the defensive battle in the yard, he decided that it was Dunning''s yard.


    In the county government, only Deng Ning has such a show.


    Chen Dao quietly sneaks in and comes to the door. He takes a dagger out of his backpack and pries the bolt carefully. When Chen Dao pries the door bolt, Zhang Xiu''s ears move on the bed in the room.


    He heard the movement of the door.


    As a warrior, he is especially alert, a little bit of movement, will let Zhang Xiu wake up. He quickly got up, with the quilt to create the illusion of people sleeping on the bed, then nimbly hide aside.


    "Creak!"


    The door opens and Chen Dao enters quickly.


    With a long gun in his hand, he strode to the bed and stabbed it out.


    "Puchi!"


    The long gun penetrated into the quilt, but it was empty. There was no one in it.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    In his mind, Chen had a bad feeling.


    The next moment, a strong wind from the side of the attack, but it is Zhang Xiu with a golden gun.


    Zhang Xiu in the hands of the tiger head spear, fast as lightning, straight to Chen''s chest.


    Seeing the golden spear coming here, Chen went to one side of his body and swept with a long spear. Then he blocked the stab.


    "Dang!"


    Under the impact of weapons and the force of anti shock, the sight of the golden gun is lost.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, a touch of surprise passed by.


    His strength was already very strong, but the golden spear with tiger''s head that he had just stabbed was hit off course by the other side, and even the rebound strength on the barrel was not weak, which made him very surprised.


    Where did this come from?


    Zhang Xiu was puzzled, quickly stepped back, and said in a deep voice: "if you can take my shot, your strength is not weak, not ordinary people. Why did you come to assassinate in the middle of the night? "


    "My purpose is to do justice for heaven," Chen said


    "Die


    Chen Dao mistakenly thinks that Zhang Xiu is Deng Ning. He doesn''t say much and stabs her when she carries a gun.


    His marksmanship is open and close. It''s the art of fighting on the battlefield. A set of shooting techniques is unfolded. The room is full of the sound of the gun barrel dancing and whirring. The tip of the gun is flashing in the air and stabbing Zhang Xiu quickly.


    All over the sky cold awn, shrouded Zhang Xiu.


    In the face of the attack, Zhang Xiu was calm and didn''t panic. He and Chen to fight for a short time, found that the other side''s attainments in shooting, not lost to him.


    It''s just that the other side is a little weaker.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is that she is good at fighting with a long gun or close combat. But Chen Dao''s martial arts are mainly focused on a big gun.Once Zhang Xiu gets close to him, Chen Dao''s shooting will be difficult.


    Zhang Xiu found this situation, constantly approaching, intending to suppress Chen Dao.


    Two people you come and I go, keep fighting.


    The sound of banging is heard all the time.


    "Let go!"


    Zhang Xiu close to Chen to the body, bully the body and into, gun swing open Chen to the gun at the same time, the left hand swung the fist hard hit.


    One punch hit Chen Dao''s wrist, where he held the gun in his right hand.


    "Pa!"


    His fist hit his wrist. In a flash, Chen Dao''s right hand was struck by lightning. He felt weak immediately and the barrel of the gun fell down.


    Chen Dao is shot off by Zhang Xiu. He takes advantage of the empty door in front of Zhang Xiu''s chest, raises his foot like lightning, and kicks it on Zhang Xiu''s chest. Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Zhang Xiu couldn''t hold her figure and stepped back.


    "Kill


    Chen to deceives the body but advances, the left hand swings the fist to hit.


    "Bang!"


    His fist was as fast as lightning, and he hit Zhang Xiu''s right elbow. With the impact of the great power, Zhang Xiu''s right hand suddenly lost its power, and the hand holding the golden gun of the tiger''s head loosened.


    "Bang Dang!"


    The golden spear fell to the ground in an instant.


    Both men, both of them lost their weapons.


    They all stand with their bare hands.


    Zhang Xiu rubs her sour right hand, and her eyes are more dignified than ever. Although Chen Dao''s strength is slightly weaker than him and his close combat is slightly weaker, he has a strong sense of fighting. Even if Chen Dao is suppressed by Zhang Xiu, he can fight back again and again.


    He slightly arched his back, clenched his hands, stared at Chen Dao and said, "what''s your name? Why kill me? "


    "You don''t deserve to know my name!"


    Chen to clenched his right hand, and then he went out again.


    At the moment when Chen Dao rushes out, Zhang Xiu hides on her side.


    "Yi!"


    Zhang Xiu left heel and the ground friction, instant leverage, twist waist power, right hand clench, hit Chen to the temple.


    Chen Dao swung his fists to block the attack and made a dull sound.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu hit another left hook, which was extremely fast and unexpected. Chen to also did not expect, Zhang Xiu just hit his temple, left hand will raid.


    In a hurry, Chen can''t escape.


    The left hook went up and hit Chen Dao''s jaw with lightning force.


    "Pa!"


    The sound of impact came out. Chen Dao''s upper and lower teeth collided, and the whole gums were a little loose. There was blood spilling from the upper and lower teeth. He stepped back two steps, shook his head, sobered himself up, and killed again.


    Zhang Xiu never retreated, and fought head-on.


    He and Chen to fight, is boxing to meat. Two people you come and I go, both sides of the body soon left their own scars.


    Just Chen to the moment, by Zhang Xiu hit some dizzy. The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu''s fists are haunting, extremely fast, and from time to time, it''s impossible to defend.


    This is the hardest to avoid.


    Zhang embroidery has always been concerned about the flaw, but also can not find the way to attack. He and Zhang Xiu fight, although fight well, but Chen to very clear, from beginning to end, he has been suppressed feeling.


    He fell behind.


    In the long run, he will lose.


    In Chen Dao''s mind, the more murderous he was. In his opinion, Dunning had such strength and wanted to kill him. The more capable such a person is, the more capable he will be. If we do not kill Dunning today, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    All of a sudden, Chen''s eyes brightened.


    He was less than a foot away from his long gun. Zhang Xiu is chasing him at the moment, making him close to his weapon.


    Here''s the chance!


    Chen Dao was very clear that as long as he stepped back to the spear and picked up the spear, he would have a chance to fight against Dunning.


    He restrained his mind, resisting Zhang Xiu''s attack and retreating slowly.

 Chapter 86

    Chen to constantly resist the attack of Zhang Xiu, in the heart determined, no panic. When he retreated to the side of the long gun, his two fists suddenly started to work hard. He forced Zhang Xiu to retreat and quickly bent down to get the long gun.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu started to smile.


    Here comes the opportunity.


    He has been pressing Chen to fight, but the other side''s combat effectiveness is not weak, full of toughness, never showing signs of defeat, so that he can not win Chen.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu specially approaches to the position of Chen Dao''s long gun.


    His purpose is to let Chen Dao pick up the long gun.


    And at the moment of Chen''s bending, Zhang Xiu quickly killed. Almost Chen to just bend down, Zhang Xiu will kill Chen to the body.


    With a low drink, Zhang Xiu''s fists fell like the wind on Chen Dao''s back.


    "Pa!"


    Chen got a blow on the back and lost his center of gravity. He landed on his side face and lay on the ground. Zhang Xiu has a good move. Her left knee is bent to support Chen Dao''s back. Her right hand grabs Chen Dao''s right hand like lightning, and she holds it with her backhand.


    In a flash, Zhang Xiu was in control.


    With cold in his eyes, he asked in a deep voice, "whose order do you come to kill me?"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Chen to smell speech, but is laughing.


    The laughter is full of sadness.


    Laughter, but also helpless.


    His original intention is to take Dunning first, and then take Dunning''s head to work for Zhang Xiu as a step forward. But I didn''t expect that I underestimated the world. Dunning''s martial arts association was so strong.


    After laughing, Chen Dao gritted his teeth and said, "dunning, even if I can''t kill you, someone can kill you. You collude with the Xiongnu, injure the people, and you are a Han. I died in your hands today, and someone will take revenge for me in the future. Zhang Xiuzheng is leading his troops to Wan county. When he comes to the city, it is the day when you, Deng Ning, die. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked stunned.


    Is this to kill Dunning?


    Zhang Xiu thought rotation, not clear each other''s words in the true and false, way: "you are sure, Zhang Xiu can break Wan county?"


    Chen said: "Wei Yan died in Zhang Xiu''s hands, not to mention you, Deng Ning. No more nonsense. I''m in your hands. If you want to kill me or cut me, you can do as you please. "


    Now Chen Dao is ready to be killed.


    He is not afraid of death.


    It''s just that he died in the hands of such a thief as Dunning.


    All of a sudden, Chen Dao felt that his hand, which was tied around him, had loosened and restrained his "Dunning." he even got up and stepped back.


    Chen Dao turned over and stood up. He rubbed his wrists and looked at Zhang Xiu. He looked alert and said, "dunning, even if you let me go, I won''t spare you. You release me today, and I will come back to kill you tomorrow. "


    He did not understand the intention of Dunning.


    But he vowed to kill Dunning.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t answer Chen Dao''s words and asked, "your name is Chen Dao. Are you from Runan?"


    "So what?"


    Chen''s eyes and eyebrows are full of vigilance. He is worried about what Dunning will do.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you want to kill Deng Ning?"


    "Yes


    Chen Dao answered directly.


    It''s just that he feels strange. Isn''t dunning the man in front of him?


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "Deng Ning is dead, dead in my hands, my name is Zhang Xiu!"


    Chen Dao was surprised and said, "are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "I killed Deng Ning and took control of Wan county this evening. If you come two hours earlier, you should be able to kill Dunning first. I sneaked into the county government first, so I killed Deng Ning first, and then sent the army into the city. "


    Chen is still surprised.


    The person in front of him was Zhang Xiu. He didn''t expect that his own assassination would create such a big oolong.


    Chen Dao said again, "are you really Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "if it''s fake, it''s guaranteed to be changed!"


    Chen to thought, this is impossible to fake, must be really Zhang Xiu. He learned that Zhang Xiu killed Deng Ning, and admired Zhang Xiu even more.


    It''s really amazing!


    Chen Dao looked guilty and said, "please forgive me for offending General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s just a misunderstanding. What''s the crime. If everyone is as brave and courageous as you are, and does harm to the people, I would like to have more people like you assassinate me. "


    Chen Dao said, "the general is wrong."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "your martial arts are extraordinary. If it''s not for me, it''s too hard for me to beat you in a short time. Even if I''m a little bit better, you have too much endurance and resilience. "


    Chen Dao scratched his head and was embarrassed by the praise.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Chen Dao, when the Huns invaded Nanyang County, they just need people like you to step forward. You have the heart to kill dunning, a cavity of blood, can be willing to fight with me Xiongnu, expel Xiongnu


    Zhang Xiu throws out the olive branch directly.He went through it once and knew the history of Chen Dao. In the history books, Chen Dao is Liu Bei''s confidant general, who is in charge of commanding the most elite Bai Jun soldiers under Liu Bang''s command.


    Zhang Xiu also needs such people.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Chen Dao said without hesitation: "general, I was originally in Wuyin County, with my uncle. Hearing that the Huns had invaded Nanyang County, they made a special trip south to resist the Huns with the general. It was only when he learned that Dunning had colluded with the Xiongnu that he sneaked into the city and planned to take Dunning first and then surrender to the general. Unexpectedly, the general entered the city first


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu even said three good words.


    He didn''t expect that he killed Deng Ning first, but unexpectedly met Chen Dao and got a tiger general.


    It''s a real surprise.


    Chen Dao fell down on his knees with a plop and said, "humble Chen Dao, I''d like to meet you."


    "Get up."


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of smiles, and said: "with your participation, this fight against Xiongnu will have more confidence. In this war, the Huns will never come back. "


    Chen Dao echoed and said about his own situation.


    If he obeys Zhang Xiu, he has to make his own situation clear. What he doesn''t know is that Zhang Xiu knows his situation like the palm of his hand. Even if Chen Dao doesn''t introduce him, Zhang Xiu knows it.


    Chen turned around and asked, "the Huns are going to go south. I don''t know what the Lord is going to do. How are you going to attack?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the plan to exterminate the Huns has been made."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said the detailed plan.


    He didn''t hide Chen.


    For Zhang Xiu, he believes that Chen Dao is sincere and obedient. If you hide in front of Chen Dao, it''s easy for Chen Dao to be distracted. What''s more, people like Chen Dao, since they have chosen to be obedient, will not be half hearted.


    After hearing this, Chen Dao said with emotion: "when the Huns went south, the officials of the counties in the north of Wan County either fled or left, no one dared to resist."


    "The Lord stepped forward and issued the order of killing slaves, which can be described as great courage."


    "The Lord decided to ambush the Huns, which was his great wisdom. Although it is extremely difficult to resist the Huns, my Lord is determined to do so. This is my Lord''s great courage. "


    Chen Dao said, "my Lord, you are a man of great wisdom and courage."


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, also can''t help laughing, joking: "uncle to, you this words ah, hold me up."


    Chen Dao shook his head and said firmly: "this is the humble words from the bottom of his heart."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "Uncle Zhi, you''ve been on your way all night and worked hard all night. I''ll let someone take you down to have a rest, keep your spirits and wait for the arrival of the Huns. "


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao responded directly.

 Chapter 87

    Jingzhou, Xiangyang.


    Kuai''s study.


    Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, sitting opposite each other, are drinking tea.


    Kuai Liang took a sip of tea, looked soft, and said slowly: "when Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan returned from Yuyang County, they launched Quyuan plow. This Qu Yuan Li has become popular in Jingzhou. "


    "Pang and Huang have made countless profits."


    "In addition, the bobbins made by Pang and Huang also began to be sold."


    With deep eyes, Kuai Liang said, "it is said that these artifacts were all made by Zhang Xiu and sold by Pang and Huang. At the beginning, I expected that Zhang Xiu was not simple. I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was not only good at war, but also could make utensils. "


    Kuai Liang is very concerned about Zhang Xiu.


    The spies of the Kuai family in Nanyang County, when they hear the news, they will send it back to Kuai Liang first.


    Kuai Yue chuckled and said, "brother, although Qu Yuan Li and the bobbin car play a great role, they are not uncommon things. Nowadays, Quyuan plow is spreading everywhere. It won''t be long before it will be imitated everywhere. The profits of Pang and Huang will be thinner and thinner. "


    Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "what you see is only the profit of Pang and Huang families. But have you ever seen that Zhang Xiu tied Pang and Huang together with the help of these gadgets. With the support of Pang family and Huang family, Zhang Xiu has a foundation in Jingzhou. "


    As soon as Kuai Yue heard it, he suddenly realized.


    He wanted to miss it.


    Kuai Liang continued: "the most important thing is that Pang Degong took Zhang Xiu as his disciple. It''s really unexpected."


    Kuai Yue tut tut two times, said with emotion: "because of this, the LORD was very angry and dissatisfied with Lord pound. It''s just that Pang Degong is a famous scholar in Jingzhou and the leader of Jingzhou taxi clan. The Lord can''t help him. "


    After a pause, Kuai Yue continued: "you know, at the beginning, the Lord asked the eldest son and the second son to worship Lord pound as a teacher, but he refused. This time, the Lord can''t get by. If you want me to tell you, Lord pound is also a bit of a fool. He can''t let the Lord down. "


    Kuai Liang said with a light smile: "if I were Pang Degong, I would accept Zhang Xiu as an apprentice. As for Liu Qi and Liu Cong, they are mediocre people with mediocre ability, so it is difficult to become a great weapon. "


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, suddenly came from outside the study.


    "Come in!"


    Kuai Liang gave an order.


    With a creak, the door was pushed open and the housekeeper rushed in. In the housekeeper''s hand, holding a roll of bamboo slips, he handed it to Kuai Liang''s desk and said, "master, you have an urgent report from Yuyang county."


    Kuai Liang took over the bamboo slips, scanned them quickly, then handed them to Kuai Yue and said, "great things have happened in Nanyang County."


    Kuai Yue took it over and looked at it.


    The news recorded on the bamboo slips is that Wei Yan died in the war, the Huns went south, and Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill the Huns.


    The news has spread to Xiangyang.


    Kuai Yue took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "it was arranged by the Lord that Wei Yan was the magistrate of Wan county. Although Wei Yan is young, his strength is not weak, but he is defeated directly. Zhang Xiu is more and more powerful. "


    "Alas, once the Lord knows, he will be furious again."


    "This time, Zhang Xiu can do it well."


    "However, the Huns went south at this time, and Zhang Xiu directly fought. It has to be said that Zhang Xiu''s courage was amazing. Everyone knows that the Huns are hard to deal with, but he is willing to go. "


    Kuai Yue said, "I admire him for this."


    Kuai Liang nodded slightly and said, "at the moment when the Huns are going south, Zhang Xiu can set an example by resisting the Huns. If Zhang Xiu could defeat the Huns, Jingzhou and even the whole country, it would spread the prestige of Zhang Xiu. This is actually an excellent opportunity for Zhang Xiu. "


    Kuai Yue said: "although it''s an opportunity, if you don''t pay attention to it, you may be in danger of overturning. Moreover, Zhang Xiu is only in Yuyang county. Although she has won several battles, her comprehensive strength is not strong. "


    "It is!"


    Kuai Liang nodded and agreed with Kuai Yue''s analysis.


    After all, the Huns are hard to deal with.


    Kuai Liang changed his words and continued: "although Zhang Xiu''s situation is not very good, now it seems that Zhang Xiu has a sign of being the master. Wisdom, flexibility, courage and courage are extraordinary. "


    Kuai Yue heard the speech, his heart thumped, his face seriously reminded: "brother, this word can''t be spread, otherwise the Lord will kill you when he knows it."


    Kuai Liang said, "I understand!"


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another attendant came to the door of the study and reported: "I''d like to inform master Yue that the prefectural prefecture has a decree. Liu Jingzhou asks you to go to the prefectural Prefecture immediately to discuss business."


    "I see!"


    Kuai Yue replied.


    Kuai Liang turned his eyes and said, "second younger brother, it''s very likely that Zhang Xiu and the Huns will be involved in this trip to the prefecture. In addition, if you can help Zhang Xiu, you can help him. "


    Kuai Yue said, "I understand!"


    He stood up, went straight out of the prefecture, and then went to the prefecture.After arriving at the prefecture, Kuai Yue went to Liu Biao''s study. When he entered the room, Cai Mao had already arrived. Kuai Yue shakes his robes and bows his hands and says, "I''m a humble Kuai Yue. I''d like to meet you."


    "Sit down!"


    Liu Biao waved his hand.


    The look on Liu Biao''s face was very cold, as if it had been frozen for thousands of years.


    After Kuai Yue was seated, Liu Biao opened his door to the mountain and said: "the news came from Nanyang County that Wei Yan was defeated and died, and Zhang Xiu won a complete victory. Fortunately, before Zhang Xiu captured Wan County, the Huns invaded. The invasion of Xiongnu people will hold back Zhang Xiu''s pace to the north. However, Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill the Huns and led the troops to resist the Huns. What do you think of this matter? "


    Kuai Yue took a deep breath and said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu killed Wei Yan. It''s very bold. However, according to our previous agreement with Zhang Xiu, the area north of Yuyang county is under the jurisdiction of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Wei Yan died in battle, we can''t say anything, we can only be dumb to eat Coptis."


    "After all, we don''t make sense."


    "This matter can only be written down hatred, with later looking for opportunities to deal with."


    Kuai Yue said, "as for the Xiongnu people going south, it is related to the national righteousness. He suggested that the Lord choose a good general and send a team of soldiers to help him. He should solve the Huns'' problems first, and then consider dealing with Zhang Xiu. In order to meet the domestic demand and settle the external problem, we first solved the external threat, and then closed the door to solve Zhang Xiu''s problem. "


    "No!"


    Cai Mao said directly, negating: "I don''t agree with the need for domestic demand and domestic demand. When the Huns went south, Zhang Xiu was exhausted. At this time, the empty rear of Zhang Xiu is a good time to attack her. "


    Kuai Yue frowned.


    He did not expect that Cai Mao would put forward such an opinion.


    Or does Liu Biao have the same idea?


    Only when Zhang Xiu went north to resist the Xiongnu, he went to attack the rear of Zhang Xiu. Once the news came out, what face did Liu Biao have?


    This is absolutely impossible.


    Kuai Yue took a deep breath and said in a dignified tone: "my Lord, the Huns are going south. When the news spreads all over the country, it must be known to the whole country. In particular, Zhang Xiu resisted the Huns and issued the order to kill the Huns. When the news spread, Zhang Xiu would gain popularity. "


    "At this time, people will praise Zhang Xiu and think that Zhang Xiu has a responsibility."


    "If we attack Zhang Xiu''s rear area at this time, the news will spread, and people all over the world will despise and despise him. The reputation established by the Lord will be destroyed. "


    "Moreover, Zhang Xiu is not a person of easy relationship."


    "We use Liu PI and Gong du to kill people with a knife, but Liu PI and Gong Du die in Zhang Xiu''s hands."


    "We selected Wei Yan to go north, intending to stop Zhang Xiu, but Wei Yan was still defeated and killed."


    "In the past, both Cai Mao and wenpin were captured by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu''s ability is not a good match. If Zhang Xiu had been destroyed earlier, it would have been better. Now that Zhang Xiu has become the climate, if we attack Yuyang County, it would be tantamount to openly tearing the skin with Zhang Xiu. "


    Kuai Yue said: "if Zhang Xiu exterminates the Huns and moves his troops south to attack Xiangyang, how will the Lord face it? The Lord has the power of Jingzhou, and he will certainly be able to stop Zhang Xiu, but he is forced by Zhang Xiu, so he is afraid to make a fool of himself. "


    Cai Mao sat on one side, his cheek twitching.


    What''s his business?


    How to get him.


    Cai Mao is extremely sensitive to being captured by Zhang Xiu. Cai Mao was afraid of Zhang Xiu from the bottom of his heart, but he also wanted revenge, so he encouraged Liu Biao to attack Zhang Xiu.


    But he won''t lead.


    Beat him to death, also don''t want to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    After listening to Kuai Yue''s words, Liu Biao thought it was this truth. After thinking about it, he looked at Cai Mao and said, "Cai Mao, what do you think?"


    Cai Mao said: "Lord, I agree with Kuai Yue''s opinion. I can''t attack Zhang Xiu for the time being."


    Liu said: "in that case, we will wait and see the change for a while. I hope that the Huns can make Zhang Xiu suffer. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Kuai Yue flatters, and his heart is relieved. He really doesn''t want Liu Biao to make trouble with Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao is not in a high mood, and he is a little listless.


    Because Wei Yan was defeated.


    He can''t contain Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao said something about Xiangyang, then waved his hand to let Cai Mao and Kuai Yue leave.


    As they walked out of the prefecture, Cai Mao looked at Kuai Yue with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice, "you''re helping Zhang Xiu to say good things everywhere. Did you take advantage of Zhang Xiu? "


    "Ha..."


    Kuai Yue sneered and said, "Cai Mao, I help Zhang Xiu for nothing else, just because I''m a Han Chinese. When the Huns entered Nanyang County, Jingzhou should be united as one. What''s the ability to attack Zhang Xiu''s rear area? You want to take revenge, go with all your might? I am willing to persuade the Lord to support you in leading the army. "


    "You..."


    Cai Mao is very angry.Let him attack the rear of Zhang Xiu, he dare not go.


    He can''t afford to provoke Zhang Xiu.


    Kuai Yue said with disdain: "Cai Mao, stop jumping up and down. I know you hate Zhang Xiu, but be careful. The Cai family paid a big price to get you back. If you eat shriveled again, the Cai family can''t afford it. "


    "Kuai Yue, you have gone too far."


    Cai Mao clenched his fist, hoping to hit Kuai Yue with one.


    But if you think about it, you''ll lose your mind.


    Like the Kuai family, the Cai family is a big family in Jingzhou. Although Cai Mao''s sister married Liu Biao, Cai Mao has this kind of relationship and is closer to Liu Biao, but the Kuai family is not weak.


    When Kuai Yue heard Cai Mao''s words, he hummed. As soon as Da Xiu brushed, he boarded the carriage and left.


    He didn''t want to talk to Cai Mao at all.


    Back at the mansion, Kuai Yue went straight into the study. When he saw Kuai Liang, he said something about what happened in his study. Then he continued: "brother, Zhang Xiu owes us Kuai family a favor this time. If it wasn''t for my persuasion, my Lord would have followed Cai Mao''s advice and sent troops to attack Yuyang county. "


    Kuai Liang said, "you have done a good job. This is what it should be. Yu Qing, we are optimistic about Zhang Xiu. It''s not difficult to help him. Yu Li, if the Huns are killed, we Han people should go to resist. How can we be held back in the rear. You should help him with both feeling and reason. "


    Kuai Yue said, "brother, you have a point."


    Kuai liang thought for a while and said, "but my Kuai family has helped Zhang Xiu over and over again. I can''t help her in vain. I''m going to let Kuai Qi go north and let him work under Zhang Xiu. "


    Kuai Qi is the son of Kuai family and the cousin of Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue.


    It''s just that Kuai Qi is not the direct line of the Kuai family, but a branch. He is close to the brothers Kuai Liang.


    Kuai Qi was in his early twenties.


    Kuai Qi has not become an official now. To let Kuai Qi come under Zhang Xiu''s command is tantamount to Kuai''s family betting on Zhang Xiu.


    Kuai Yue suddenly raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "brother, I''m under Zhang Xiu''s command. Once the news comes out, I''ll be known by my Lord. I''m afraid the Lord''s heart will give birth to a knot in my Kuai family. "


    Kuai Liang laughs and says, "different degrees, our Kuai family is in Jingzhou. Even if Liu Biao has an idea, what can he do? Moreover, each has his own purpose. Do you work for Liu Biao, and all the people in my Kuai family have to work for Liu Biao? "


    "What kind of truth is that?"


    "I don''t approve."


    "What''s more, brother Qi''s statement is not obvious, and his going to Zhang Xiu''s command has no influence."


    Kuai Liang said, "you worry too much."


    Seeing that Kuai Liang had made a decision, Kuai Yue said, "since brother has made a decision, I''ll tell brother Qi to prepare for it."


    "Good!"


    Kuai Liang nodded and stroked his beard with a smile.


    Today, Kuai Liang has begun to lay out his plans for the future.


    The Cai family put all their capital on Liu Biao. Originally, there was no Zhang Xiu. This is a good move. After all, Liu Biao in Jingzhou is the only one. But the emergence of Zhang Xiu broke this balance. Although Zhang Xiu''s strength is weak, its potential is very strong.


    In particular, Pang and Huang have made a decision that Kuai Liang should not lag behind others.


    So, make a decision.


    In Kuai Liang''s view, the icing on the cake is never better than sending charcoal in the snow.


    Just as Liu Biao first came to Jingzhou, there were countless thieves in the territory, and countless people refused to accept Liu Biao. With the Kuai family, Kuai Liang followed Liu Biao early, helped Liu Biao stabilize the situation, offered advice, made great contributions to Liu Biao, and got corresponding rewards.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has not really risen.


    At this time in Zhang Xiu side bet, help Zhang Xiu, etc. after the rise of Zhang Xiu, can get the corresponding benefits.


    This is Kuai Liang''s plan.

 Chapter 88

    Lumen mountain.


    On the mountain, study house.


    Pang Degong received the news from Yuyang county that Zhang Xiu defeated Wei Yan''s army and killed Wei Yan. He was very happy. He looked down upon Liu Biao''s arrangement for Wei Yan to go north.


    As the pastor of a state, it is wrong to interfere in what he promised.


    At the end of the day, he saw that Zhang Xiu issued an order to kill the Huns and called on people of insight to go north to fight against the Huns.


    Zhang Xiu''s way of doing things is very exciting.


    In his early years, Chen Tang once said that those who violate our strong Han will be punished even though they are far away!


    When the Huns invaded, they should fight.


    If Zhang Xiu did not fight against the Xiongnu and let the Xiongnu wreak havoc, Pang Degong would not recognize Zhang Xiu as a disciple. Or, even if he acquiesced that the two sides were still masters and apprentices, he could not plan anything for Zhang Xiu.


    The reason is very simple. Zhang Xiu has no bottom line in front of right and wrong.


    Zhang Xiu''s current practice has greatly relieved Mr. pound.


    Just today, both Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan are here. Pound''s public security platoon had two attendants. One told Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Shi Tao, Cui Jun and others the news, while the other went to ask Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan to come.


    When Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan entered the study, Pang Degong showed them the news, stroked their whiskers and said with a smile, "look, the disciple I''ve received is really extraordinary. In the face of Xiongnu, he didn''t have the slightest fear. He stood up to be a hero. "


    After reading the news, Huang Chengyan''s eyes were full of satisfaction.


    The more I know about Zhang Xiu, the more I think Zhang Xiu is good.


    In fact, Zhuge Liang was the first person Huang Chengyan considered when it came to Huang Yueying''s life. Among all the children in lumen mountain, Zhuge Liang is the first in appearance, conduct and talent.


    Pang Tong''s ability is outstanding, but his appearance is too bad, and his temperament is rebellious, so he is not considered by Huang Chengyan.


    Now, however, he admires his daughter.


    Little girl, you have eyes.


    Huang Chengyan said, "Pang Gong, Zhang Xiuzheng is leading the army north to fight against Xiongnu. What are you going to do?"


    After reading the letter, Sima Hui said, "Pang Gong is Zhang Xiu''s mentor. Now Zhang Xiu is fighting against Xiongnu, you should support him. I''m afraid we''ll have to send someone north. "


    Pound said with a smile: "I have plans. It should be soon, and there will be results. "


    "Sima Hui said:" also play a riddle


    Huang Chengyan eyes rotation, suddenly said: "you should not, let Shiyuan north?"


    "It''s not me who asked Shiyuan to go north to help Zhang Xiu," said pound. "It''s Shiyuan who went north on his own initiative."


    Huang Chengyan said, "why?"


    Pang Degong explained: "because I arranged for people to tell the people in the mountain gate the news that Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill slaves."


    Sima Hui said: "Pang Gong, why did Shiyuan take the initiative to go north, Zhuge Liang?"


    After hearing the speech, pound explained: "Shiyuan has a rebellious temperament and few friends. But people he appreciates will help. The original scholar yuan was quite fond of Zhang Xiu. As soon as the order of slaying slaves was issued, how could the young men of the Yuan Dynasty not take the initiative to go north. "


    "As for Kong Ming, it''s hard!"


    "On the one hand, Kong Ming is rational and will not shake his inner thoughts just because of something."


    "Kong Ming has a great ambition to assist Mingjun and revitalize the Han Dynasty. But Zhang Xiu was born in a vulgar family and could not enter the eyes of Kong Ming. "


    "On the other hand, Chengyan had praised Kongming several times before. Every time he saw him, he did not hesitate to praise him and asked him about his family. It''s clear to all discerning people that Chengyan has a crush on Kongming and has the idea of marrying his daughter to him. "


    "It''s just that this matter has not been explained, nor has it come to the stage of engagement."


    "Kong Ming and Yue Ying have only a few sides. They have nothing to do with each other. Although Chengyan intends to, but everything is clear, but the bloody man, in women such things, there is always possessive


    "Now, Yueying goes north with Zhang Xiu."


    "Obviously, there is no possibility between Yueying and Kongming. Under such circumstances, even if nothing happened between Yueying and Kongming, Kongming would not go north. "


    Pound stroked his beard and made a judgment.


    He knew the temperament of his disciples very well, which was Pound''s wisdom of knowing people.


    Huang Chengyan lost his voice and said, "it''s true. I did mean to match Yueying and Kongming. Just didn''t expect, month Ying this wench silent of, follow Zhang Xiu north


    Sima Hui joked: "you''re an old man, you have to be a great master."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Huang Chengyan''s face was full of pride. In his heart, he is indeed quite happy, because the potential of Zhang Xiu is already unlimited.


    Sima Hui changed his words and continued: "I can''t understand Kong Ming''s mind. Pang Gong once recommended Kong Ming to Liu Biao, hoping that he would become an official and experience himself. Liu Biao did recruit Kong Ming, but he didn''t want to. In my opinion, he should first become an official, experience some time, sharpen his own abilityPang said: "Kong Ming has great ambition. He knows that Liu Biao can''t achieve great success, so he can''t work for Liu Biao. As for the theory of experience, it does not exist with him. He would rather study at home than go to Jingzhou officialdom. "


    "Everyone has his own ambition!"


    Sima Hui sighed and said, "up and down the lumen mountain, Cui Jun, Shi Tao and others have the ability of a prefect. But if you want to go further, it depends on personal opportunities. The best are Kong Ming, Shi Yuan and Yuan Zhi. Now Yuan Zhi has worked for Zhang Xiu. I don''t know where Kong Ming, Shi Yuan and Yuan Zhi will go in the future. "


    Pound Justice: "look at personal opportunity!"


    Three people chatting, not long, outside the study came a knock: "uncle, nephew something to see."


    When pound heard this, he said with a smile, "look, this is coming."


    "Come in!"


    Lord pound said.


    "Creak!"


    The door was pushed open and Pang Tong, dressed in a black robe, strode in.


    He bowed to Pang Degong, then to Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan, and said, "uncle, my nephew is going north to help Zhang Xiu fight against Xiongnu."


    Pound is fair: "why?"


    Pang Tong held his head high and said, "when Hu Lu invaded Nanyang County, countless people died. As a man of eight feet, he should carry a sword of three feet to calm down the bandits. Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill slaves, which greatly cheered the people. My nephew wanted to go to Nanyang County to fight against Xiongnu with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Well, you go!"


    Pang Degong did not stop him, and said, "I''m going to Nanyang County. Are you ready to work for Zhang Xiu?"


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "isn''t this what my uncle expected?"


    Pound shook his head and said, "my expectation is one thing, your choice is another. I hope you will go, but I won''t force you to do it. Everything depends on your own decision. "


    Pang Tong said: "so that my uncle will know that my nephew will help Zhang Xiu resist the Xiongnu. But whether or not to work for Zhang Xiu depends on Zhang Xiu''s ability and whether he can convince his nephew. "


    Pound is fair: "the king chooses the minister, the minister also chooses the king, should be like this."


    Pang Tong said: "my uncle is right. It''s just the saying that good birds choose trees and good officials choose their masters. Zhang Xiu''s performance today is indeed admirable. But whether he is a qualified monarch remains to be tested. "


    Pound said, "you won''t be disappointed."


    "I hope so!"


    Pang Tong said: "nephew, I''m going to Nanyang County. I don''t know when I can return to lumen mountain. Please take good care of your uncle, Huang Gong and Sima Gong while your nephew is away from lumen mountain. "


    Pound Fair: "you go, I''m here, you don''t have to worry."


    Sima Hui and Huang Chengyan also responded with a smile.


    Although Pang Tong''s temperament is rebellious, it also depends on people. For those who respect him, Pang Tong is not rebellious at all.


    "Nephew, leave!"


    Pang Tong bowed and left. When he came out of the room, a cold wind came and blew up his black robe. Under the cold wind, Pang Tong walked with pride.

 Chapter 89

    In the morning, the autumn wind blows.


    Zhang Xiu is wearing a single clothes, not anxious not slow morning exercise.


    Although it was very late to deal with Chen Dao''s affairs last night, after a short rest, he regained his exuberant energy and did not feel tired because of staying up late.


    After the morning exercise, Zhang Xiu sent for Gan Ning and Chen to come.


    After they arrived, Zhang Xiu introduced them to each other and said, "Uncle Zhi, join the army. Stay with me and wait for my arrangement. What do you think of it when you defeat the Huns and confirm your position? "


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao answered directly.


    For him, Zhang Xiu''s trust is the first thing, what official position is the second.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "did you two have breakfast?"


    "No!"


    Gan Ning and Chen answered together.


    Soon after they got up, they got Zhang Xiu''s order and came in a hurry.


    "Then eat with me."


    Zhang Xiu let people to prepare breakfast, three people eat early after dinner, Ganning busy. Zhang Xiu takes Chen Dao to check the ambush point in the north of the city. Every time she goes there, Zhang Xiu will explain why and tell Chen Dao the specific arrangements.


    After walking a circle, Zhang Xiu saw that the people in the north of the city were evacuating quickly.


    Most people are actively cooperating.


    Everyone hopes to defeat the Huns as soon as possible.


    There are also stubborn people who are not willing to leave, which requires Gan Ning to arrange people to do work. Not only that, it needs to be done in a short time. Once the Huns arrive and the Huns have not evacuated, it will be very troublesome.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t interfere.


    Let Gan Ning be responsible for everything.


    Near noon, a sentry came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "general, the Huns are here. It''s less than ten miles away from the county. "


    "Well, here we are at last."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with light, and said: "go, we will call the kitchen spring for a while."


    Chen Dao was also very excited. This time he was sent to the south, he was specially against the Huns.


    Zhang Xiu went straight to the city floor of the north gate and changed her clothes. She was no longer dressed in armor, but a county magistrate. Because he''s playing Dunning.


    Chen Dao stood by to protect Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu inspected the garrison of the tower, Gan Ning went up to the tower and reported: "Lord, the people in the north of the city have all evacuated. I really don''t want to cooperate. I will take them away by force. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Time is urgent, so we can only take them away by force, because there is no spare time to persuade them.


    Time goes by.


    Just after noon, on the official road outside the city, the sound of horse''s hooves came from far and near.


    Where the horse''s hooves pass, smoke rises everywhere.


    Under the smoke and dust, an army appeared in Zhang Xiu''s sight.


    More than 2000 elite riders led by Hu Chuquan arrived outside Wan county. At the moment, huchuquan is very proud and full of expectation. He wants to be comfortable in Wan county.


    He went down from Guanzhong to Nanyang County, where he passed, he was invincible. Every time it was like this, Hu Chuquan had already looked down on the Han people and didn''t think they could resist his attack.


    Even if Zhang Xiu issued the order to kill slaves, Hu Chuquan didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu.


    He just wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    When huchuquan went down to the south, he also sent sentinel agents to inquire about the news. When he learned that Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed near Wan County, his vigilance disappeared.


    The sound of horse''s hooves, one after another.


    For a time, the momentum was huge.


    When huchuquan''s army arrived outside the North Gate Tower, two thousand elite cavalry arrayed, one by one like a wolf, rebellious.


    Huchuquan looked up to the city floor and yelled, "I''m huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu. Where''s Deng Ning?"


    "Dunning is here!"


    Zhang Xiu stood up and answered.


    Huchuquan and dunning have never met before. He pretends to be dunning, and huchuquan can''t recognize them.


    Huchuquan looked contemptuous and yelled: "open the gate and let me into the city."


    "Wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Hu Chuquan immediately frowned and threatened, "dunning, what do you mean? Is it hard to repent? Do you know that if you offend the king, Wan county will not leave any dogs or chickens. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "please let Zuo Xian King calm down. The reason why I let you stay in the city is that I hope Zuo Xian king can promise me a condition before entering the city."


    Zhang Xiu''s practice is to dispel the suspicion of huchuquan. If he opens the gate directly, in case huchuquan leaves the army guarding outside, or even takes over the tower first, there will be complications.


    There are two advantages to his blocking.


    First, attract huchuquan''s attention and let huchuquan not think about the garrison outside the city.Second, reduce huchuquan''s vigilance.


    Hu Chuquan heard Zhang Xiu''s words, and immediately put down his vigilance and dissatisfaction. Because listening to the tone of "Dunning" does not seem to violate the agreement.


    Huchuquan said, "what are your conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I put down the suspension bridge, opened the gate, and let the army of Zuo Xian King enter the city. But king Zuo Xian must swear to heaven that the army will not invade the people when they enter the city. "


    Huchuquan heard the words, but also rest assured.


    It turned out that Dunning was worried that he would connive at the looting of soldiers.


    With a faint smile on his face, huchuquan raised his right hand and said in a loud voice, "I swear to heaven that after the army enters the city, it will never invade the people of Wan county."


    Huchuquan''s heart is a sneer.


    When he enters the city, he will not follow the agreement. His army entered the city to plunder. He believed in Kunlun God, not heaven.


    An oath to heaven has no binding effect.


    Zhang Xiu knew the words in huchuquan''s mouth, but she didn''t point them out. She continued: "since King Zuo Xian has vowed, I will open the gate immediately. After the army enters the city, I will provide meat and so on, so that Zuo Xian''s army can eat and drink enough. But after eating and drinking enough, please Zuo Xian Wang fulfill his promise and go to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    Huchuquan said: "no problem!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "come on, put down the suspension bridge and open the gate."


    Wan county has a moat. If you want to enter the city, you must put down the suspension bridge. With the creaking landing of the suspension bridge, it finally landed on the ground with a bang, connecting the inside and outside of the city.


    The generous gate opened immediately.


    Huchuquan saw the city gate open, and his face was happy. He ordered: "sons, enter the city!"


    "Into the city!"


    Wu Ji Hou roared.


    The rest of the Huns, too, were shouting excitedly, one by one.


    Huchuquan takes the lead and drives quickly through the gate to enter the urn. The urn is an important protection of city defense. Even if the outermost gate is broken, the existence of the urn can be protected again.


    After passing through the urn, you can enter the real gate.


    The front gate is still open.


    Huchuquan saw the city gate opened, but he didn''t worry about it, so he entered directly. When he went down to the south, he had sent someone to inquire about the gratitude and resentment between the Deng family and Zhang Xiu, and learned that the whole family of the Deng family died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. He had no doubt about Deng Ning.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid, and more than 2000 Hun cavalry entered the city in a mighty manner. Zhang Xiu looks at all the Huns who enter the city, and her eyes are cold. These Xiongnu people entered the urn city and went directly to the city without stopping at all.


    Zhang Xiu told the soldiers to pull up the suspension bridge and close the gate.


    At this time, in the inner city.


    Huchuquan looked up at the garrison upstairs and gave a cold smile. He didn''t go up to the castle and didn''t plan to take over the city defense, because it was meaningless. What he wanted to do now was to plunder and vent.


    "Sons, it''s time for you to have fun. Go!"


    Huchuquan orders in a loud voice.


    The soldiers under his command were ordered to go to the place where the people lived in the north city.


    This is a pillage.


    Huchuquan himself, also slowly follow behind, he also want to grab some.


    Zhang Xiu stands on the upper floor of the inner city, looking at the Huns leaving and the back of huchuquan leaving. She sees Mori''s cold murders in her eyes.


    Huns, it''s in the urn!


    What happened in front of him, as he predicted, did not take over the city after entering the city, nor did he act in accordance with the agreement with dunning, but went on his own to plunder.

 Chapter 90

    In the city, Huns scattered one by one.


    Everybody''s going to rob.


    Xiongnu people rushed into the streets of Beicheng District, then quickly knocked on the door, intending to break into people''s homes and plunder money and women. For the Huns, money, food and women were the most important.


    "Kill, rob!"


    "Wancheng is a big county. There are plenty of beauties and money. Rush!"


    "Beauty, here I am!"


    Shouts the Huns, running to the place where the people gathered.


    Wuji Marquis also with his subordinates, a burst of gallop horse. Before that, he plundered countless people and made a lot of money in Danshui County, but Wu Jihou was not too much about money and women.


    At the moment, Wu Ji Hou''s heart was full of excitement and expectation. He hoped to return with a full load again.


    Soon he came to a house. The house is well decorated, grand and magnificent.


    Wu Ji Hou grinned, waved his hand and said, "come on, knock on the door."


    Soldiers, step forward immediately.


    "Bang! Bang


    The door knocks and the Hun soldiers wait.


    After a while, no one inside opened the door.


    With impatience on his face, Wu Jihou ordered: "don''t knock, pretend, just knock the gate open!"


    "Yes


    When the soldiers were ordered, they pounded the door.


    After a few bangs, the gate was knocked open, and the soldiers rushed in like mad dogs.


    Wu Ji Hou followed him and entered the gate. He ordered, "hurry up, search for me."


    His confidant was ordered to act immediately, but he just stood in the door and didn''t rob himself. His task is to block the gate and keep no one out.


    Leave the rest to your confidants.


    Wu Ji Hou waited quietly. After a moment, he found something wrong.


    It''s too quiet in the house.


    As usual, the soldiers under his command went into the Han people''s houses, with chickens flying and dogs jumping, countless people scurrying, and there were shouts and shouts.


    But now there was no sound.


    This is a strange place.


    Wu Ji Hou looked around and found that there were no attendants around. It''s hard to say that there are no attendants in such a big mansion.


    Wu Ji Hou could not wait, so he got off his horse and went directly to the hall. As soon as he got to the position of the hall, he saw the soldiers coming back and reported that there was no one in the house, empty.


    Wu Ji Hou was a decisive man. He did not stay any longer. He left quickly with his soldiers and went to the next house. But after the soldiers broke in, they encountered the same situation. They didn''t even see a personal picture, let alone food and money.


    Wu Ji Hou began to worry, so he went to the location of huchuquan. He caught up with huchuquan and reported: "Zuo Xianwang, the houses here and there are empty. No one, no food, nothing. "


    After Wuji Marquis opened his mouth, other generals also agreed.


    Huchuquan suddenly raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "there is no common people in this area. It is very likely that he left ahead of time. I guess Dunning was on guard against our plunder, so he let the people withdraw early. "


    "It''s possible."


    Wu Ji Hou answered directly.


    After huchuquan thought about it, he put out the idea of plundering again, and immediately ordered the troops to be withdrawn. If you can grab materials when you enter the city and plunder, huchuquan will order the troops to be withdrawn, and no one will answer, because it is the time of plunder.


    It''s empty all around now. There''s no way to plunder. At huchuquan''s command, the soldiers under his command quickly gathered and all lined up behind huchuquan.


    After the army gathered, huchuquan raced to the north gate.


    Since Dunning didn''t give him a chance, he went straight to Dunning.


    In short, he needs interests.


    "King, the house behind us is on fire."


    When the soldiers were on their way, someone suddenly reminded them that the houses hundreds of feet away from the rear were burning fiercely, and the smoke was rising.


    "King, there''s a fire on the left."


    Suddenly, another soldier reminded me.


    "Your Majesty, a hundred feet away from the right side of us, there is also a thick smoke and a big fire."


    There are soldiers again.


    A hundred feet away from the center of huchuquan, the fire is burning fiercely, and the smoke is billowing.


    The fire was burning like a snake.


    "No, it''s a trick."


    When huchuquan saw the fire in the rear and on both sides, he felt a thump in his heart. The burning fire blocked his plans to retreat and go to the left and right sides, so that he could only retreat to the north city.


    "Dunning, damn Dunning!"


    Huchuquan is biting his teeth. His eyes are full of murders.


    Wu Ji Hou said: "Zuo Xian Wang, Deng Ning and Zhang Xiu have a blood feud. Why did they ambush us?"


    "You ask me, I ask who''s going?"


    Huchuquan looked anxious and ordered: "speed up the journey, while the fire has not spread, we return to the North City, kill the tower, and take Dunning."He had to go back to the north.


    Because the roads around are blocked.


    The troops retreated quickly, and within a quarter of an hour, they came near the north gate. At the moment, in the North Gate Tower, at the exit of the street, Zhang Xiu, with Gan Ning and Chen, led the troops to stay here.


    In this place, there are a lot of horses.


    The line after line of resisting horses was specially used to deal with the war horses to prevent the Hun cavalry from rushing over.


    Behind Zhang Xiu, the archers and the crossbow men were in their positions.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, there are long spearmen.


    This arrangement is to block the Huns in the city and in the area where the people live. As long as the Huns can''t break through and wait for the fire to come, they will die in the sea of fire.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    In fact, after the Huns entered the city, Zhang Xiu could close the city gate and order to shoot the Huns. However, in that case, the Huns might escape. He wanted to adopt a comprehensive strategy, so he used fire attack.


    There is no escape under the fire.


    Zhang Xiu''s ear moved and heard the sound of horse''s hooves coming from the distance


    "Da! "Da!"


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid, and it went straight to the gate of the north city.


    "Archer, prepare!"


    Zhang Xiu gives the order quickly.


    All the archers under his command were ordered to aim at the street ahead with bows and arrows.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    When huchuquan drove his horse on the road, he saw the army at the gate of the city and roared: "dunning, you and Zhang Xiu have incomparable hatred. Why do you break the agreement and collude with Zhang Xiu? "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t answer. When she found that the Huns were less than 100 steps away from him, she ordered, "Archer, let go!"


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bow and arrow, take off and rise.


    These bows and arrows passed in the air, and in an instant, they fell on the Huns.


    Wan county is the seat of the county. Its streets are wide, nearly four feet wide. But at this moment, the four Zhang wide distance is not wide enough to let the soldiers of huchuquan disperse.


    They were forced to crowd the streets and become targets.


    The bow and arrow went into the Hun''s body and reaped the Hun''s human life.


    Some Huns were killed with one arrow.


    Some Huns fell to the ground after being injured.


    Even if they were not shot by bow and arrow, after the Huns fell to the ground, the rear horses rushed up quickly, and immediately they would be trampled to death.


    For a moment, the scream continued.


    Nearly 60 Hun soldiers died on the spot under the bow and arrow.


    Huchuquan took the soldiers on his way. Seeing this scene, he was so angry that his eyes were splitting. He roared, "run for me. As long as we break through the arrow rain, we can kill in front of Dunning. We are the people of the Kunlun God, the warriors under the protection of the Kunlun God, the sons, kill. "


    He gave a loud order.


    Xiongnu soldiers in order to survive, but also constantly forward.


    At present, the Huns dare not delay.


    Because there is a sea of fire in the rear. If they delay, they will be buried in the sea of fire. In the sea of fire, there is absolutely no chance of survival. However, if you drive your horse forward, you will have a chance to survive as long as you kill it.

 Chapter 91

    Countless Huns urged their horses to charge, but it didn''t help.


    It took more than ten people''s lives, but only three or five steps forward.


    Huchuquan watched his soldiers die under the arrow wave by wave, angry at the same time, his heart was extremely panic. Because the fire in the rear is fast approaching.


    Standing in the same place, you can feel the heat wave from afar.


    I can''t help it. I have to go forward.


    "Go


    Huchuquan gave a loud order.


    One by one Hun soldiers rushed forward quickly. If they didn''t rush now, they would die in the sea of fire.


    In the Hun soldiers desperate sprint, a little closer to the distance.


    Eighty steps!


    Seventy steps!


    Sixty steps!


    When the distance was shortened to less than 60 steps, Zhang Xiu had a cold feeling between her eyebrows and ordered: "crossbow hand, prepare!"


    The Bowman was already in place.


    And the archer is in front of the archer, which is conducive to short-range shooting.


    One by one, take up the crossbow and aim at the front.


    Zhang Xiu said: "shoot the arrow!"


    In a flash, the sound of the machine''s buckle sounded, and a crossbow shot out.


    The crossbow is as fast as lightning.


    In the blink of an eye, it was in front of the Huns.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the arrow pierced the armor of the Huns and shot into the skin.


    When ordinary bows and arrows are shot, they are protected by armor. Even if they can be shot into the body, they are buffered by armor, and the degree of injury is not great. But under the shooting of the crossbow, the armor can''t play any role, and can''t stop the sharp crossbow.


    The dozens of Huns who rushed to the front fell down.


    These Huns were trampled to death by the soldiers who rushed up before they could struggle to stand up.


    At this moment, the bow and crossbow shot out at the same time, forming a dense harvest net. The Xiongnu people who sprint and run are like fish in the net. No matter how they struggle, they can only be in the net and can''t break free.


    The screams, the screams.


    Shout, try to shout.


    Under the interweaving attack of bow and arrow, the Huns died one by one and fell into the crowd.


    Under this attack, huchuquan just saw soldiers falling down. In particular, the cavalry under the other command could not speed up and spread, and became a target.


    Huchuquan saw this situation and gnashed his teeth.


    It''s just that he can only order the soldiers to go forward.


    Because the fire in the rear is getting closer and closer.


    It''s a thrilling heat wave.


    Hun cavalry constantly forward, to fight flesh and blood, distance in a little bit closer. When the distance was reduced to less than 20 steps, the crossbow began to lose its efficacy.


    Although a very small number of cavalry close, Gan Ning and Chen to join hands, can easily solve. But more and more cavalry came near, but they could not be killed. They had to remove the crossbow and replace the rest of the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu had already prepared and mobilized long spearmen to come forward.


    In a limited range, spear formation is the best formation against cavalry.


    In such a formation, as soon as the Huns'' cavalry approached, they saw the long guns with thick goose eggs sticking out, poking into the horses'' bodies, and drawing out instantly, bringing out a canopy of red blood.


    When the horse fell to the ground, the Hun soldiers died immediately.


    This scene falls in the eyes of huchuquan. He saw the cavalry, who came close and died under the long gun, clenching their fists. The nail pierced the skin, stabbed into the flesh and blood, were suddenly unconscious.


    Although the spear formation is a hedgehog, it is not easy to deal with.


    But the long spear array on the grassland has no attack power at all. Huchuquan can be suspended from a distance, then shot with bow and arrow to disturb its formation. In addition, they can also cut off their food and grass supplies, or they can swim away to fight.


    He has too many ways to deal with the long gun.


    In the city, he was helpless.


    There is no solution at all.


    Seeing that soldiers were constantly dying, and even within a quarter of an hour, more than half of his soldiers were killed or injured, Hu Chuquan became more and more anxious.


    In particular, the fire in the rear is getting closer and closer.


    Huchuquan couldn''t rush out, and a fire broke out in the rear. He ordered the soldiers to surrender.


    More than ten Huns called for surrender.


    The voice of surrender came into Zhang Xiu''s ears. When Zhang Xiu heard it, it seemed as if she hadn''t heard it. She thought she didn''t know that he would not accept huchuquan''s surrender.


    Xiongnu people are unfamiliar white eyed wolves.


    These people should be killed.


    Damn it.


    If he has the chance to kill huchuquan thoroughly, he will not miss it.


    The archers are still, the Lancers are still.


    The number of dead and injured Huns is still increasing rapidly.Wu Ji Hou follows Hu Chuquan. He sees the soldiers with more casualties and becomes anxious. In particular, Zhang Xiu did not have any reaction. He knew that this time he would probably die in Wan county.


    He was not reconciled.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Wu Ji Hou''s brain turned quickly and said, "Zuo Xian Wang, let the soldiers rush forward with the corpse. With these corpses as a buffer, as a shield, at least a certain degree of protection


    "No use!"


    Huchuquan''s eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "look carefully, we don''t have to give orders. Some soldiers have already done this. But that goose egg thick long gun, after a shot, easily penetrated the soldier''s body. A long gun of one foot long can''t be stopped by a corpse. "


    "Alas..."


    Wu Ji Hou gritted his teeth and said, "damn dunning, how could he be so heartless that he wanted to kill us."


    Huchuquan said, "no, no!"


    Wu Ji Hou said, "what''s wrong with Zuo Xian Wang?"


    Hu Chuquan''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu''s position. His eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Deng Ning is a member of the Deng family. Since he sent people to contact us, he should not betray us. Especially when Wei Yan died, Wan county had no soldiers to fight. "


    After a pause, huchuquan continued: "but if you look carefully, the soldiers we met are all valiant soldiers, all elite soldiers. The commander of the other side''s leader is armed with a long gun and calm. Is such a person Dunning? He''s not Dunning. "


    "Is it Zhang Xiu?"


    Wu Ji Hou blurted out.


    Huchuquan said: "yes, it''s Zhang Xiu! Only Zhang Xiu can explain everything. This time, Zhang Xiu first captured Wan County, and then set up a plan to deal with us. "


    "And we found out that Zhang Xiu''s encampment outside the city was also an illusion of arrangement, which was deliberately to confuse us."


    "Only Zhang Xiu will do more when we enter the city, so that we can''t invade the people. He did this on purpose to guide us to invade the people so that we could enter the ambush circle. "


    "The real Dunning is willing to collude with us for the sake of interests and revenge, regardless of the lives of the people. Will such a person take care of the lives of the common people and remind me to swear? "


    Hu Chuquan said: "so the person we meet must be Zhang Xiu."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Wu Ji Hou nodded one after another, but he was even more depressed. He murmured, "it''s over, it''s over. If it''s really Zhang Xiu. He issued an order to kill slaves, and it is impossible to let us go. "


    Huchuquan said, "maybe there is another way."


    Wu Jihou spirit, asked: "what method?"


    "Zhang Xiu is young and challenges him," he said


    Immediately, huchuquan called ten soldiers. After giving orders, he heard the ten soldiers shouting: "Zhang Xiu, I am huchuquan. You set up an ambush here. Even if you beat me, I''m not convinced. Do you have the courage to fight against me? If you win, kill or cut, as you please. If you lose, let Ben leave Wan county. "


    The soldier''s cry came to Zhang Xiu''s ears.


    "Still struggling?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu smiles coldly. His heart is like a mirror to huchuquan''s stratagem. He immediately understands huchuquan''s intention. This is to motivate him to fight for the chance to escape.


    Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

 Chapter 92

    Worried about Zhang Xiu''s agitation, Chen Dao advised him, "don''t be fooled by huchuquan, my Lord. This is his way to motivate him."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "I know all about huchuquan''s methods. But if he really wants to fight, I will give him a chance and give him a choice that is not a choice. "


    Chen Zhi suddenly raised his eyebrows and said euphemistically, "my Lord''s martial arts will be believed. I''m afraid of huchuquan''s trickery. We just need a steady attack, we can kill huchuquan. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t worry, I have a sense of propriety."


    "Lord, think twice


    Chen to frown, afraid of Zhang Xiu agree to huchuquan challenge.


    If you lose, it''s a lot of trouble.


    Zhang Xiu took a look at Chen Dao, but didn''t explain much. She said with a smile, "Uncle Zhi, just have a look."


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao responded directly.


    His heart is still a little nervous.


    He was worried that Zhang Xiu would go to war.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not gallop forward. He looked in the direction of huchuquan, stretched out his right hand and hooked his hand to huchuquan, indicating that huchuquan came to his direction.


    Now that Zhang Quan is willing to fight, he shouts out. It''s a shame to hide in your army like a girl. "


    Zhang Xiu''s manner was natural, and she said: "huchuquan, if you want to fight, you should go ahead immediately. My long Gunners will let you in. Otherwise, don''t talk about challenges. Ben will give you a chance, you can hold it, Ben will fight you. If you don''t want to, just wait till you die. "


    Huchuquan really wants to fight, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    He can kill huchuquan.


    However, Zhang Xiu will not fight with huchuquan.


    There are two reasons!


    First, if Zhang Xiu comes out of the formation of long spearmen, it will disrupt the formation of the soldiers and make the archers and long spearmen behind unable to cooperate with each other.


    Second, after Zhang Xiu stepped out of the army, she entered the Huns. Once she was surrounded by ambush, it was not easy for her to escape.


    He has a clear mind.


    So what Zhang Xiu did was let huchuquan come out for a fight.


    To fight, it''s only at his home.


    This is the condition of Zhang Xiu.


    Chen to a listen, immediately a long sigh of relief, no longer worried.


    Huchuquan''s face, however, became extremely difficult. The reason why he encourages Zhang Xiu is to let her walk out of the formation of long spearmen. Once Zhang Xiu comes out, archers can''t shoot long-range, because they will hurt Zhang Xiu by mistake.


    In addition, huchuquan and Zhang Xiu fight two moves first, and then they can order the army to charge and surround Zhang Xiu. Even though Zhang Xiu is good at martial arts, she can only retreat under the siege of the crowd.


    When Zhang Xiu retreats, the spearmen must spread out.


    In this way, huchuquan can work hard to defeat the long spearmen. In today''s situation, huchuquan doesn''t want to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, but only wants to fight out and save his life.


    Zhang Xiu''s answer broke his plan.


    There''s no chance to break through.


    Hu Chuquan watched the soldiers die and get injured more and more. Even if he rushed forward, he couldn''t break Zhang Xiu''s long gun formation, and the fire in the rear was getting closer and closer, less than 30 steps away from them.


    As the fire spread, the heat waves rolled in.


    After huchuquan thought about it, he knew that he had no choice. Even if Zhang Xiu let him fight in the past, he could only take a chance. As long as he can defeat Zhang Xiu and control her, he can order her subordinates to stop attacking and win this time.


    Of course, if you lose, it won''t be worse than it is now.


    Both sides are dead.


    It''s a fight.


    "Kill


    Huchuquan carries a machete and rushes out quickly. The horse in his crotch is a rare horse with sweat and blood. The horse has strong hooves. In a flash, it rushes to the area where the long Spearman is.


    Zhang Xiu starts to smile at the corner of her mouth and orders the long spearmen under her command to let huchuquan enter once huchuquan approaches.


    In the twinkling of an eye, huchuquan arrived outside the long gun array.


    "Change


    The commander in chief gave the order.


    One by one, the long Gunners quickly changed their formation, leaving a six foot wide road open.


    Every soldier is on guard.


    If huchuquan wants to take advantage of the opportunity to kill, the spearmen can stab huchuquan into a meat hole by waving their spears.


    When huchuquan ran by, his heart was also trembling. He was afraid that a long gun would stab him to death. Fortunately, after safely rushing through the formation of long spearmen, huchuquan felt at ease.


    As soon as huchuquan rushed through, the Huns rushed in, intending to break through the long spearmen''s defense.


    "Kill


    The general of the Lancer ordered.


    A long gun came out and poked into the road six feet wide.


    "Puchi! WheezingThe spear thrust into the Hun''s body, instantly killed all the Huns who rushed up, and the spear formation was instantly closed, restoring the original formation.


    Huchuquan was cut off from the soldiers.


    At this time, huchuquan had no choice. He rushed forward quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, he was less than ten steps away from Zhang Xiu. He held up his machete and roared: "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Zhang Xiu sneered.


    It''s the spring kitchen that has no choice.


    When huchuquan approached Zhang Xiu less than eight steps, Zhang Xiu raced out. He clenched the golden spear in his hand, and held the middle and rear part of the long spear in his right hand, with the barrel slightly raised under the armpit of his right hand.


    The spears are flush, making a charge.


    The two horses were facing each other. In a flash, the distance between them was less than five steps.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes a Lin, the left hand pulls the bridle of the horse, the war horse under the crotch immediately stops.


    "Herod!"


    The horse stopped and hissed.


    The golden spear of tiger head in Zhang Xiu''s hand stabbed out like lightning. His shot was as fast as lightning. A streamer flashed in the air and reached the chest of huchuquan.


    Huchuquan is close to Zhang Xiu. As soon as he is ready to chop with a machete, the long gun penetrates huchuquan''s chest armor.


    "Puchi!"


    The tip of the gun pierces the armor and sends it into the heart.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed out at once.


    One shot pierced huchuquan''s heart.


    It''s just a blink of an eye. After huchuquan was shot, he raised his machete and had no strength.


    Zhang Xiu''s left hand is on the barrel of the golden gun. He made a sudden effort, and saw the long gun lifted up, poking huchuquan from the horse''s back and hanging horizontally in the air.


    "Poof!"


    Huchuquan spouts blood.


    He struggled twice and lost his breath when his neck was crooked. Huchuquan, who had not yet become Hun Shanyu, died in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Zhang Xiu drank a low, hands again. In an instant, the body of huchuquan was thrown out and flew fifteen paces in the air.


    "Bang!"


    The body landed just outside the formation of the long gunners.


    Huchuquan''s body twitched again, his chest overflowed with blood, and there was no breath.


    The Huns were even more alarmed.


    When they lost their leader, they wanted to surrender, but the problem was that Zhang Xiu didn''t accept it. They are dead when they rush forward, and dead when they stand still. They have no way at all.


    When Wu Ji Hou saw that Hu Chuquan had died in the war and that he had fallen into a desperate situation, he was sad in his heart.


    However, it is helpless.


    At this moment, Wu Ji Hou suddenly remembered that when they conquered Danshui County, they went into the city, into the homes of Han people, killed Han people, and even defiled his wife and daughter in front of Han people.


    From the standpoint of the Han people, how helpless and desperate it is.


    Now, he has.


    He was hopeless.


    "Kunlun God, is this retribution? How did the people of the great Huns fall into such a situation? "


    Wu Ji Hou''s heart was filled with sadness. He watched the soldiers who rushed forward and died in the war, and some soldiers in the rear were caught in the sea of fire. He gritted his teeth and saw a touch of firmness in his eyes.


    He moved his hand, raised his machete, and wiped it over his neck.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, splashing out.


    The blood soaked Wu Ji Hou''s clothes. His body swayed twice, and he lost his sight in front of his eyes. When he faltered, he fell to the ground without any breath.

 Chapter 93

    With ujihou''s suicide, Xiongnu soldiers were completely desperate, they had no chance to escape.


    Besides death, it''s still death.


    Bows and arrows are still shooting; spears are reaping lives; fires are spreading.


    The Huns are rapidly decreasing.


    Zhang Xiu looks at this scene, a smooth expression appears on her face.


    He won''t blame himself for killing Huns.


    Together with huchuquan, these Huns invaded the territory of the Han Dynasty and killed in Nanyang County. There were countless wives scattered and countless families destroyed.


    He''s just getting some interest back.


    Half an hour later, all the Huns were killed.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "summon, put out the fire!"


    "Here it is


    Soldiers must be ordered to move quickly.


    For the soldiers in the army, they killed two thousand Huns, and they were very happy. One by one high spirited, carrying buckets of fast running, began to put out the fire.


    When the soldiers put out the fire, the news that the Huns were killed also spread in the city.


    Wan county city, the people know, have come out to put out the fire.


    A big fire in the north of the city was put out two hours later, but the north city was in ruins.


    Many houses are ruins.


    Looking at the dilapidated streets and charred houses, Zhang Xiu looked at the surrounding people. First, she gave thanks to the people who helped, and then she said, "villagers, the streets and houses in the north of the city were due to fire. After the war, Ben will try his best to make up for it. As long as the registered residence in the north of the city, the people will be compensated one by one.


    It is impossible to be harsh on the people.


    This is the foundation of a foothold.


    When people heard Zhang Xiu''s words, they praised her for her high righteousness.


    At this moment, an old man with a white head came out.


    His name is Yang Ye, the head of the Yang family in Wan county. Originally, Yang ye lived in the north of the city. At Zhang Xiu''s command, Yang Ye and his family all moved out of the Yang family.


    However, the Yang family has a great career, and they also have property in the south of the city. Moving from the north to the south of the city has no effect.


    It''s just the house burned down.


    Yang Ye bowed his hand and said, "after the invasion of Xiongnu, general Zhang shouldered the task of defeating Xiongnu, but we did nothing, but damaged some houses, which is not worth mentioning."


    "I don''t need any compensation for Yang''s house."


    "At the same time, the Yang family gave 100000 Jin of grain and 1000 liang of gold to support General Zhang to make up for the losses of the people."


    "Dunning is a dog thief. For his own benefit, he sent Deng you to collude with the thief. It''s damned. If it''s not general Zhang, Wan county will turn into a hell on earth. "


    Yang Ye bowed his hand and said gratefully, "we will remember the merits of General Zhang."


    As soon as this remark came out, countless people responded.


    They all appreciate Zhang Xiu.


    If Zhang Xiu had not set up a plan for this war, Wan county would have become a hell on earth.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Yang Gong Gao Yi, Zhang Xiu thanks."


    Yang Yedao: "General Zhang, you are welcome."


    After being polite to both sides, Yang Ye leaves with the Yang family, while Zhang Xiu orders the soldiers to clean up the battlefield.


    When everything is done, Zhang Xiu returns to the county government directly.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Gan Ning stood at the bottom and reported: "Lord, all the Huns died in this battle with the Huns. None of our soldiers died. In this battle, we have won a complete victory. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help cheering.


    The battle was really beautiful. Dunning knew in advance that Dunning had colluded with the Huns.


    Otherwise, it is impossible to win all.


    Zhang Xiu said: "xingba, you immediately arrange sentries to send the news back to Yuyang County, so that the military division can spread the news everywhere. The total annihilation of two thousand Huns should be publicized. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should bow his hand.


    After Gan Ning left, Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Dao and said, "Uncle Zhi, the Huns were exterminated. When the situation in Wan county stabilizes, we will continue to go north and take the counties north of Yuyang county. "


    Chen Dao said: "the Lord is holding the general trend of defeating the Huns. He will be invincible when he goes north in this battle. If it had been before, I''m afraid some people would not accept it. Now the LORD goes north, and all the places he has passed are attached to him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I hope so!"


    The two talked in a relaxed atmosphere.


    Soon after, soldiers reported that the Yang family had brought food and money.


    Zhang Xiu personally took people to receive food and money, and arranged for people to be responsible for compensating the people. Only after he issued the notice, only a few people came to receive compensation.


    Most of them didn''t come.


    People appreciate Zhang Xiu''s kindness and are unwilling to come. What''s more, their houses were damaged, their money was taken away, and their food was buried in advance, so they were not affected.In this regard, Zhang Xiu is also full of emotion.


    So popular!


    The hearts of the people are available!


    In the evening, as soon as Zhang Xiu had dinner, a soldier came to report: "general, there is a young man from the county government. He said that he wanted you to go out to meet him in person. Do you want to bombard him? "


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked, "what''s his name?"


    The soldier said, "he didn''t say his name."


    Zhang Xiu saw this situation, but she was a little curious. He wanted to see what the other side was selling. He immediately got up and went out, went out of the hall and came to the gate.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the young man at the door, a smile appeared on her face.


    It was Pang Tong.


    Zhang Xiu arched her hand and said, "Shiyuan, how did you come to Wan county?"


    Today, Zhang Xiu is a disciple of Pang Degong. Although he has no intersection with Pang Tong, with the relationship of Pang Degong, he calls Pang Tong''s words directly to show his closeness.


    Pang Tong closed his hands, raised his head and bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu.


    This is a big gift.


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said, "Shiyuan, what are you doing?"


    Pang Tong looked solemn and said: "it''s admirable that general Zhang defeated the Huns in Wan county and saved the people from fire and water. General Zhang can afford it. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the scholar yuan was praised falsely."


    "Shiyuan, please!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and took Pang Tong into the room.


    They entered the hall and sat down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and asked, "Shiyuan, how is the teacher?"


    Pang Tong said: "my uncle is in good health. He is very happy to learn that general Zhang issued the order to kill the Huns to fight against the Huns."


    Zhang xiudao said: "the Huns invaded Nanyang, killed my people, destroyed my home, killed the Huns, that''s the righteousness."


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "yes, where is righteousness."


    This is the place where Pang Tong appreciates Zhang Xiu most. Even though Zhang Xiu was born as a martial artist, his responsibility and courage are admirable.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "what''s the matter with Shiyuan going to Wan county this time?"


    Pang Tong said: "I went north in response to General Zhang''s order to kill the Huns. I''m ready to join General Zhang and kill the Huns with him. However, all the Huns have been killed. I don''t know. Is general Zhang willing to accept me? "


    Zhang Xiu immediately laughed and said happily: "Shiyuan can work for me, that''s what I can''t ask for. However, I dare ask shi yuan, "what can I do for you?"


    Zhang Xiu also appreciated Pang Tong.


    This is a talented person.


    If you get Pang Tong''s follow, it is very helpful for Zhang Xiu. However, he would like to listen to Pang Tong''s suggestions.


    Pang Tong knew that Zhang Xiu''s last words were a test. But he was not afraid at all. He said confidently, "I can''t give you advice, but Pang Tong has some ideas about the situation that general Zhang is facing."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"

 Chapter 94

    Pang Tong coughed gently, cleared his throat, and said: "throughout the territory near General Zhang, or the area around Nanyang County, Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou and Guanzhong."


    "There''s nothing else."


    "The land of Yizhou is surrounded by mountains on all sides. The terrain is precipitous. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack."


    "With general Zhang''s current strength, let alone less than ten thousand soldiers, I''m afraid that even if there are thirty or fifty thousand more elite, it''s not easy to capture Yizhou."


    "The land of Yanzhou is in the hands of Cao Cao."


    "Although Yanzhou has no advantage in geographical location, Cao Cao is extremely cunning, and he can be virtuous and able to use his talents. He served the emperor to command the princes to grasp the great righteousness in their hands. "


    "Although the world is in chaos, people are still loyal to the great man in today''s situation."


    "For the time being, no one dares to attack Cao Cao."


    Pang Tong talked with great eloquence, his eyes shining with wisdom, and continued: "the land of Yuzhou is occupied by Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, and some of them are occupied by Huang Jin. This is a land of chaos."


    "There is no geographical advantage, there is no fertile land, people have fled."


    "Here, there is no prospect."


    "Jingzhou, which runs through the north and south, can reach Guanzhong in the north and Jiaozhou in the south. It is a strategic place. But Jingzhou, under Liu Biao''s control, has the support of the people, and countless big families support Liu Biao. "


    "Its foundation is hard to shake."


    "Even though Pang and Huang support General Zhang, it is not easy to win Jingzhou."


    "Only in Guanzhong, you can attack and defend when you enter."


    Pang Tong said: "the most important thing is that Li Xi and Guo Si in Guanzhong attacked each other, and wars broke out one after another. The people in Guanzhong have long been tired of the war, and they all hate Li Xi and Guo Si. "


    "Regardless of the geographical location, regardless of the people''s will, it is of great benefit."


    "If general Zhang went with the reputation of killing Xiongnu, the people would welcome him."


    "This is an opportunity!"


    Pang Tong said: "besides meeting Nanyang County, it seems to be a foothold. But one day, general Zhang will tear his face with Liu Biao. Liu Biao''s foundation is enough to balance you, because his strength is far beyond you. "


    "What''s more, Nanyang County and Yanzhou border, which is also the thorn in Cao Cao''s eye."


    "Staying in Nanyang County can only serve as a barrier."


    "And even if general Zhang has the ability to go south to Xiangyang, he will replace Liu Biao. However, Jingzhou is not suitable to be the rear area. There is not enough strategic depth and supply of war horses. It is not suitable to go north. "


    "The best is Guanzhong."


    Pang Tong said: "my suggestion is that the text of the article is beautiful and meaningful, which makes Zhang Xiu unable to pick out any thorns.


    Even I have to be grateful to the Kuai family.


    But in front of Kuai Qi, Zhang Xiu must arrange, after all, the Kuai family is kind.


    But it''s not easy to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t know much about Kuai Qi. She doesn''t know his character and ability. Even though he is familiar with history and knows that there is Kuai Qi, there is very little information about him. Zhang Xiu is not clear about his ability.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu will not be entrusted with a heavy task for the time being, at least let Zhang Xiu find out his lineage.


    Then, we can entrust the important task.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "Kuai Qi, there is a lack of a master book by the general''s side. Would you like to be the commander of this general? "


    "Yes!"


    Kuai Qi answered without hesitation.


    This is the purpose of his trip, to follow Zhang Xiu on behalf of the Kuai family.

 Chapter 95

    Zhang Xiu was obedient to Kuai Qi and loyal to Pang Tong. With the help of them, the affairs of Wan county were settled in just two days, and they were on the right track together.


    The former magistrate of Wan county was Wei Yan, and the county magistrate was Deng Ning. But no matter Wei Yan or Deng Ning, they all died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Wan county is leaderless.


    Zhang Xiu appointed a new county magistrate and a county magistrate. After all the arrangements were made properly, she led the army northward.


    Now Zhang Xiu is surrounded by Pang Tong and Xu Shu, as well as Gan Ning and Chen Dao, who are both civil and military. This is really the foundation.


    When Zhang Xiu went north, the news that two thousand Huns were killed began to spread around Nanyang County.


    Liu Biao was the first to get the news.


    He paid close attention to Zhang Xiu.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu was a broken settlement from Guanzhong to Jingzhou, helpless and weak. Even though Zhang Xiu has taken Cai Mao and wenpin hostage, Liu Biao''s heart has never looked up to Zhang Xiu.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has to rely on him.


    Without his support, Zhang Xiu is rootless Ping.


    But after Zhang Xiu left Xiangyang and arrived at Yuyang, she killed Gong Du and Liu PI first, and then killed the Deng family. She quickly established herself and had a certain strength, which made Liu Biao feel uneasy and afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Recently, when Zhang Xiu killed Wei Yanhou, Liu Biao was not only afraid, but also worried.


    Worried about Zhang Xiu sitting big.


    But Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with.


    Liu Biao''s heart is pinned on the Huns. He hopes that the Huns will defeat Zhang Xiu, and both sides will lose. Finally, he will come out to clean up the mess.


    But Liu Biao was disappointed again.


    Zhang Xiu killed two thousand Huns without a single soldier, and killed Zuo Xian King Hu Chuquan.


    The news has spread.


    The streets and alleys of Xiangyang City, inside and outside the prefecture, are discussed by countless people. When people mentioned Zhang Xiu, they were all in a state of praise and admiration.


    Liu Biao is mad with anger.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu would win so easily.


    Liu Biao couldn''t listen to the people in his family. When he met them, he punished them severely and ordered them not to talk about Xiongnu.


    For a time, the prefecture turned pale when it came to slavery.


    In the study.


    Liu Biao sat down and thought for a long time. After that, he ordered people to invite Cai Mao and Kuai Yue.


    After a while, the two entered.


    Cai Mao and Kuai Yue took their seats after saluting. Cai Mao took the initiative to say, "my Lord, what''s the matter?"


    Liu Biao said directly: "Zhang Xiu killed two thousand Huns without a single soldier, and killed huchuquan, the king of Zuo Xian. This matter has spread all over the streets. What do you think? "


    Cai Mao''s face changed greatly, and said, "Lord, is it a rumor sent by Zhang Xiu?"


    "The news is confirmed," Liu said


    Kuai Yue sat at the bottom with no change in his expression. The Kuai family always pays attention to the war in Nanyang County. After Zhang Xiu defeated the Huns, the Kuai family soon got the news.


    So he''s not surprised.


    Cai Mao said with a cold face: "Lord, you see, Zhang Xiu has defeated the Huns now. If she goes north, she will be invincible. In a very short time, Zhang Xiu will definitely control Nanyang County to the north of Yuyang county. "


    At this point, Cai Mao snorted and said sarcastically, "Lord, if you hadn''t listened to Kuai Yue''s suggestion and let Zhang Xiu fight with the Huns, Zhang Xiu would not have been big. This time, it''s all Kuai Yue''s fault. "


    Liu Biao didn''t speak and looked directly at Kuai Yue.


    He waited for Kuai Yue''s explanation.


    Kuai Yue glanced at Cai Mao, disdained to smile, and said: "the reason why my Lord didn''t send troops to attack Zhang Xiu has already been explained, so I don''t need to repeat it."


    "As for Zhang Xiu sitting big, it''s not pleasant to say. If you really believed Cai Mao''s words before, and went to attack the rear of Zhang Xiu, you would really tear your face with Zhang Xiu."


    "After Zhang Xiu defeated the Huns with thunder, he didn''t need to send troops and fight for the main bus at all. He just needed to send a message that Zhang Xiu was fighting against the Huns in the front, but the Lord attacked the rear secretly."


    "After this news comes out, what reputation does the LORD have?"


    "What do people think of the Lord?"


    Kuai Yue said: "the Lord is a famous person in the world, and he is also a vassal. The attack on Zhang Xiu''s rear area is despised. It''s not worth the loss. "


    Liu Biao stroked his beard and nodded: "what he said in different degrees is really reasonable. This time, the gains and losses did not attack Zhang Xiu, otherwise they would really feud with Zhang Xiu. The situation is very bad. "


    Cai Mao smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    He didn''t understand Liu Biao. He hated Zhang Xiu and wanted to stop her, but he didn''t want to offend her.


    In CAI Mao''s opinion, Liu Biao has enough strength, and is far more powerful than Zhang Xiu. In this case, killing Zhang Xiu has no effect.


    He doesn''t care what happens in the future.


    Kill Zhang Xiu first.Unfortunately, Liu Biao would not think so.


    Cai Mao''s eyes were cold and he said, "my Lord, I have something to report."


    Liu Biao said, "what''s the matter?"


    Cai Mao squinted at Kuai Yue and said, "I have heard that Kuai Qi of the Kuai family has gone north to Nanyang County and gone to Wan county to join Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Biao''s face suddenly darkened.


    When he looked at Kuai Yue, there was a trace of displeasure in his eyes. He is very good at Kuai''s family. Even if Kuai Liang retired, he would send people to express his sympathy to Kuai Yue.


    Unexpectedly, the Kuai family supports Zhang Xiu.


    It''s ingratitude.


    Liu Biao took a deep breath, with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "strange degree, is this really the case?"


    "Yes!"


    Kuai Yue answered directly.


    Liu Biao said, "what''s your explanation?"


    Kuai Yue chuckled and said, "my Lord, it''s very common. What should I explain? Although Kuai Qi is a child of the Kuai family, he has become an adult. He has his own ideas and his own way to go. "


    "Moreover, Kuai Qi''s hot-blooded youth, after hearing Zhang Xiu''s order to kill the Huns, was filled with righteous indignation and wanted to go to the battlefield to attack the Huns with Zhang Xiu."


    "Such a thing happened not only in Kuai''s family, but also many other Rangers and common people in Jingzhou went to Nanyang County to attack Xiongnu people with Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s a common thing."


    "Besides, everyone has his own aspirations. Kuai Qi has his own ideas. I can''t force him to do things he doesn''t want to do."


    Kuai Yue said: "I heard that the Xunzi family in Yingchuan was full of talents. The people led by Xunzi followed Yuan Shao, while Xunzi and Xunyou followed Cao Cao. There is nothing wrong with that."


    "It''s a personal pursuit."


    "Kuai Qi wants to follow Zhang Xiu, so if the Lord and Zhang Xiu are against each other and want to fight against Zhang Xiu, Kuai Yue has no hesitation and should stand on the opposite side of Kuai Qi."


    "This is a position, not an identity."


    Kuai Yue said: "the loyalty of humble duty, please master Ming Jian."


    After listening to Liu Biao, he looked a little better, but Kuai Qi''s business was always a knot in one''s heart.


    He always feels unhappy.


    However, Liu Biao didn''t say any more. As soon as the words changed, he said, "now that Zhang Xiu is in a big position, what do you say to do? How can we contain Zhang Xiu? "


    Kuai Yue shook his head and said: "after Zhang Xiu killed huchuquan, her fame has greatly increased and it has become the climate. For the time being, I didn''t contain Zhang Xiu''s plot, so I had to wait and see what happened. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao heard the speech and sighed again.


    Kuai Yue said: "if the Lord is really worried, it''s better to let Cai Mao lead his troops to Xinye and take charge of the Xinye border. With the relationship between CAI Mao and Zhang Xiu, he will go all out. "


    "No, no, I''m not going!"


    Cai Mao didn''t even think about it and refused.


    He is not willing to face Zhang Xiu. He would rather stay in Xiangyang than face Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao knew what Cai Mao thought, but he didn''t say much, but he shook his head in his heart. Although Cai Mao was the chieftain of the Cai family, his ability was too ordinary for mud to support him.


    Liu Biao''s heart is filled with regret.


    As early as I knew, I shouldn''t let Zhang Xiu be a big man. I should even kill Zhang Xiu in spite of the lives of CAI Mao and wenpin.


    Everything is too late.


    Zhang Xiu has become the climate.

 Chapter 96

    Compared with Liu Biao''s helplessness to Zhang Xiu, Pang Degong is happy.


    Up and down the lumen mountain, filled with a cheerful atmosphere.


    The reason is that Zhang Xiu won a great victory.


    Zhang Xiu is a disciple of Pang Degong and lumen mountain. The victory of Zhang Xiu is equal to the victory of the whole lumen mountain. So the news of Zhang Xiu''s great victory came back, and lumen mountain was even more famous in Jingzhou.


    Halfway up the hill, in Pang''s living room.


    Pang Degong and Sima Hui are drinking tea and chatting about Zhang Xiu''s killing Xiongnu.


    Sima Hui sipped a sip of tea and said with emotion: "Pang Gong, to tell you the truth, my original view of Zhang Xiu''s resistance to the Huns is that Zhang Xiu will win in the end, but it will certainly go through a bitter battle."


    "But, this how all did not expect, Zhang Xiu can win so easily."


    "It''s incredible."


    "I don''t know what strategy Zhang Xiu set up. She could easily annihilate two thousand Huns. You know, the Huns are all cavalry. They come and go like the wind. It''s not easy to advance, retreat and wipe out all the Huns. "


    Sima Hui was also surprised.


    He even admired Zhang Xiu.


    When it comes to her ability in marching and fighting, Zhang Xiu is as powerful as an antelope.


    Pound was very proud and said with a smile, "I don''t know how Jiang Ping won. However, we will know when the detailed war reports are disclosed. "


    After a pause, pound said: "I''m also very surprised. I didn''t expect to win in such a short time."


    Sima Hui joked: "now, you are more proud."


    Pound is fair: "average, average!"


    Sima Hui tut tut two times, said: "before you accept Zhang Xiu as a disciple, the news back to Xiangyang, many Jingzhou celebrities, have criticized you, think you should not accept a Wufu as a disciple, make you bear great pressure. Now Zhang Xiu''s move can be described as a slap in the face of everyone. The people who blame you are all eyes and don''t know the truth. "


    "That''s nature!"


    Pound stroked his beard under his jaw and was even more proud.


    He took Zhang Xiu as a disciple in Yuyang County, which was not a simple matter for Pang Degong. After returning to Xiangyang, Pang Degong suffered a lot of criticism, but he did not tell Zhang Xiu.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a valet rushed in.


    After bowing to Lord pound, the attendant solemnly said, "master, Huang Chengyan has sent someone to send a message. Please go to Huang''s house immediately and say that there is something very important to discuss with you. Even if you have something in your hand, it''s on hold. "


    "I see!"


    Lord pound waved his hand.


    After the valet got up and left, Pang Degong looked at Sima Hui and asked, "virtue, would you like to go with me?"


    Sima Hui shook his head and said, "it''s not suitable for me to go. In case it''s about Yueying, you are Zhang Xiu''s teacher. Your teacher is like a father. You are suitable to deal with it. If it''s about Zhang Xiu, you can also come forward. I''m not fit. I''ll stay on the mountain. "


    "All right!"


    Mr. pound got up and left.


    He went down the mountain and took a carriage straight to Xiangyang City.


    From lumen mountain to Xiangyang City, there are more than ten miles. The road is good. The carriage gallops all the way. It soon enters the city and stops at the gate of Huang''s house.


    As soon as he got out of the carriage and came to the door, he saw the porter come forward and said respectfully, "Pang Gong, the master is in the study. He said that when you come, you can go directly."


    "I see!"


    Pound nodded.


    He has been to the Huang family and knows the location of Huang Chengyan''s study.


    Around the corridor, through a yard, soon came to the study.


    When Pang Degong entered his study, he saw Huang Chengyan enjoying a pair of words and asked, "Chengyan, do you want to inform me to come to the city


    Huang Chengyan heard the voice of Pang Degong, returned to his senses, handed a pair of words to Pang Degong, and said, "Pang Gong, come and have a look, give a comment and appreciate it."


    "Good!"


    Mr. pound took it and looked at the words on the white paper.


    The character is Huang Chengyan''s.


    Nothing unusual.


    Pound took a close look, but he didn''t see the difference between Huang Chengyan''s words and the usual one. He said, "Chengyan, your words are not different from the usual one. Is there any problem?"


    "Huang Chengyan said with a smile:" not to let you read, but to let you see this piece of paper


    "Paper?"


    Pound''s brow rose.


    On hearing Huang Chengyan''s words, Pang Degong thought that when he was in Yuyang County, Zhang xiuzeng wrote the process and technology of papermaking, which he handed over to Huang Chengyan and asked him to go back to Xiangyang for experiments.


    It''s just, it hasn''t been successful.


    Pound stroked the white paper in his hand. Gradually, his face was shocked. Previously, he had a preconceived idea that Huang Chengyan asked him to comment on the handwriting, but he didn''t pay attention to the paper and didn''t respond. Now, after careful observation, I found the unusual part of the paper in my hand.This piece of paper is thick, smooth and white. The most important thing is that the words written on it do not have the slightest infiltration, and the ink does not disperse. It is an excellent paper.


    This is even better than zuober paper.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    At this moment, Pound''s breath began to rush.


    Any scholar knows the value of paper. A piece of paper, can transcribe a lot of words, covers a small area, but the paper is not easy to save, and ink written on the paper, will cause ink spread, writing disorder, no preservation value.


    The paper in front of us is very different.


    The ink does not disperse at all.


    Pound recovered his mood fairly and said solemnly: "Chengyan, did he really make new paper?"


    "Yes


    Huang Chengyan nodded excitedly and said quickly: "according to Zhang Xiu''s suggestion, bamboo paper is made from bamboo. Although it failed many times, it succeeded at last. The texture of the bamboo paper is mellow, and the ink is not scattered on it, so it is easy to preserve. Once the large-scale promotion, will be able to replace the left Bo paper


    Pound is fair: "can you make it in bulk?"


    "Yes


    Huang Chengyan nodded again and said: "after the success of bamboo paper production, when it is made again, it is a little slower, because the process and process are not familiar."


    "It''s a lot easier when you''re familiar with everything."


    "This paper made of bamboo will cause drastic changes. There are not many taxis in the world, because the cost of reading is too high. But with the advent of paper, countless classics can be transcribed, the cost of reading will be greatly reduced, and there will be more and more scholars. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "Pang Gong, the emergence of bamboo paper will surely be able to remain in the history of the Qing Dynasty."


    Pang Degong also solemnly said: "in addition to being famous in the history, the income from the bamboo paper may be enough to make Pang and Huang rich and matchable."


    After a pause, Pang Degong said: "when I was studying Shangshu, I learned that there was a single copy of the book marked by an ancient scholar in the Cai family. I borrowed it to copy it, but it took a lot of effort to copy it with bamboo slips. With this bamboo paper, everything will change. "


    "Yes


    Huang Chengyan sighed: "Pang Gong, why do you think Zhang Xiu knows bamboo works? In the process of making paper, predecessors used hemp rope, sack and other experiments, but never considered bamboo, but Zhang Xiu thought of it. "


    Pang Degong sighed: "it can only be said that Zhang Xiu not only has the talent of governing the country, but also has great wisdom. Anyway, the advent of paper is a good thing. "


    "But I don''t think it''s appropriate to make a public announcement at the moment to avoid disturbance."


    "My advice, let''s go north to Nanyang County for the time being and talk to Zhang Xiu about the paper to see how to arrange it. On the one hand, the stationery needs to be named; on the other hand, the price of the paper has to be determined. "


    "Apart from that, I can also congratulate him face to face and congratulate him on his defeat of Xiongnu," he said


    "Yes!"


    Huang Chengyan agreed directly.


    In his opinion, in addition to congratulations, we can also look at Huang Yueying.


    He hasn''t seen his daughter for a while.


    After a discussion, Pound''s platoon sent a message back to lumen mountain, saying that he would not return to lumen mountain for the time being and let Sima Hui take charge of everything. They left Xiangyang with Huang Chengyan and headed for Nanyang County.

 Chapter 97

    Wuyin county is located in the northeast of Wan county.


    The county magistrate of Wuyin county is Chen Fu. Before the Huns went south, the county magistrate and the county captain left with the soldiers, leaving a mess. Chen Fu stayed in Wuyin county to pacify the people, stabilize the situation and prepare to fight against the Huns.


    When people were in a panic, the news came that Zhang Xiu had killed two thousand Huns.


    When the news came, the people were jubilant.


    Those who have left their hometown are back.


    Wuyin county is back to its bustle.


    As the people slowly returned, the original Wuyin magistrate and county captain also returned.


    Chen Fu was embarrassed by the return of the county magistrate and the county captain.


    When the county magistrate left, Chen Fu acted as the county magistrate, but his name was not right and his words were not right. After all, he was not the county magistrate.


    So as soon as the county magistrate came back, he was constrained everywhere.


    what matters has the final say of the county magistrate.


    The most important thing is that in the eyes of the people, Chen Fu is not afraid of life and death, and stays in Wuyin county to survive with them. The people admire Chen Fu and are more willing to obey his orders.


    The county magistrate and the county captain fled early and abandoned the people of Wuyin county. They are greedy for life and afraid of death.


    The people scoff at the county magistrate and the county captain.


    Just like this, the county magistrate regards Chen Fu as a thorn in the flesh and makes trouble everywhere.


    Chen Fu''s situation is more and more difficult.


    On this day, the Department of Yamen.


    Chen Fuzheng is only responsible for his official business, which is mostly trivial or difficult.


    This is for his county magistrate.


    In a county, the magistrate is heaven, and he has all the rights. The magistrate is only assistant to the magistrate. So Chen Fu has no room for resistance in front of the county magistrate. If it wasn''t for his fame, the county magistrate couldn''t kill Chen Fu directly. I''m afraid Chen Fu would have been dealt with long ago.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the room.


    A yamen servant quickly entered, bowed his hand and said, "Mr. Chen, please welcome the county magistrate."


    "I see!"


    Chen Fu nodded.


    The Yamen servant, with an expression of desire to speak but not to speak, thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Chen, you must be careful when you go to see the county magistrate. I''m afraid it''s against you to see the magistrate and the county captain together. "


    In the eyes of countless soldiers in Wuyin County, Chen Fu was the real "county magistrate", because when the news came that the Huns were going south, the county magistrate and the county captain fled, Chen Fu stayed behind and instructed them to arrange everything.


    Therefore, the soldiers all served and respected Chen Fu.


    They don''t want Chen Fu to have an accident.


    Chen Fu gently smile, said: "thank you for your kindness, I know."


    He put down his pen, got up and went out to the hall.


    At the moment, both the county magistrate and the county captain are here.


    The magistrate of Wuyin county is Lin Zhen. He was more than 50 years old. He was thin, narrow eyed, and had a flat nose. His appearance was unbearable.


    The reason why Lin Zhen was able to serve as county magistrate was that he found Zhang rang, the eunuch at that time, and bought the post of county magistrate of Wuyin county during the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.


    His name is Lin Huan. He is Lin Zhen''s nephew.


    Lin Huan was in his early twenties. He was a young man. He was five big and three rough. He was strong in martial arts.


    When Chen Fu saw Lin Zhen, he bowed his hand and said, "I''d like to see you


    Lin Zhen, with a gloomy face and a cold look, yelled: "Chen Fu, I have received a report from the people. When I was not in Wuyin County, you plundered money, embezzled money and perverted the law. "


    Chen Fu raised his head and threw it to the ground, saying: "my Lord, during my stay in Wuyin County, I never did anything against the law. The so-called corruption and perversion of the law is nothing. "


    "Force words to reason!"


    Lin Zhen grabbed a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, threw it in front of Chen Fu, and said, "have a look!"


    Chen Fu bent down and picked it up.


    He spread out the bamboo slips in his hand and quickly scanned the contents of the bamboo slips. After reading them, his heart sank.


    The contents recorded in bamboo slips are full of loopholes. There are many mistakes in logic, and the accusation is even more false, because it is clearly a false accusation, which has never happened.


    It''s Lin Zhen who wants to deal with him.


    Chen Fu took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said slowly: "during the period when Mr. Lin left Wuyin County, I didn''t do anything against the law and discipline. Everything on the bamboo slips is framed. Please be aware of it. "


    Lin Zhen said coldly, "Mingcha? What else to look for? Human evidence and material evidence are all here. Everything is clear. Chen Fu, don''t you still plead guilty? As long as you plead guilty, I think you can take credit for your stay. "


    Chen Fu is a man of backbone, said: "no crime, how to confess."


    Lin Zhen''s eyes narrowed with a trace of coldness and asked, "do you want to sophistry?"


    Chen Fu said: "I am upright and upright. Since there is no guilt, there will be no confession. "Lin Zhen said, "you dare to quibble!"


    As soon as Chen Fu listens to Lin Zhen''s words, he knows that Lin Zhen is determined to deal with him. Otherwise, Lin Zhen will not take a flawed accusation and will be convicted.


    Chen Fu said angrily, "magistrate Lin, you are dissatisfied with the fact that the lower officials stay in Wuyin county. It''s a big deal. I won''t be the county magistrate of Wuyin county. It''s not a big deal. "


    Lin Zhen insidious said: "you worry too much, I just act impartially, not dissatisfied with you, nor against you."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Chen Fu burst into laughter.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    A villain is a villain.


    Lin Zhen is a complete villain. He is insane.


    Chen Fu said forcefully, "if you want to frame me up, I will never admit it. You can''t convict me. I won''t plead guilty. "


    Lin Zhen showed a touch of impatience on his face and ordered, "come on, take Chen Fu away."


    The soldiers rushed in and stopped Chen Fu.


    Compared with Chen Dao, Chen Fu is a real scholar and has no martial arts skills, so after being restrained by soldiers, he can''t move even though struggling, so he can only glare at him.


    "Put people in jail and bring them up for trial on a certain day," Lin said


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to escort Chen Fu away.


    Unable to move, Chen Fu was escorted to the prison.


    Lin Huan looked at Lin Zhen, frowned and said, "uncle, let''s take down Chen Fu by means of an accusation. Why do you just put him in jail and not convict him directly? "


    Lin Zhen stroked the goatee under his jaw and explained: "Wuyin county has just experienced the threat of Xiongnu people. Chen Fu led the people to actively prepare for the battle, which is very popular."


    "If you do it directly, it will easily cause public indignation when the news comes out."


    "If we detain Chen Fu in the prison and do not bring him up for trial for the time being, the news will not be leaked and no one will talk about it. It will be easier to deal with Chen Fu when the Huns'' affairs are over and everything is calm. "


    "I''m talking about picking a day to refresh myself, but this time is up to me."


    "You can be put on trial tomorrow, or in ten days and a half months."


    Lin Zhen cunningly said: "Chen Fu is over. There will be no more Chen Fu in Wuyin county."


    "My uncle is wise!"


    Lin Huan also showed a smile on his face and said: "at the beginning, we withdrew from Wuyin county and asked Chen Fu to withdraw together, but he wanted to stay and guard. On the contrary, he let his uncle be criticized by the people. This man is very bad. "


    Lin Zhen said: "no matter what, he is already the fish on my official chopping board and can only be slaughtered by my official. The official post of county magistrate is vacant for the time being. After a period of time, you will be the county magistrate, and then you will be promoted to be the county captain. "


    "Uncle Xie!"


    Lin Huan was very happy.


    He used to be a rogue in Wuyin County, doing nothing. Lin Zhen served as county magistrate. After he had a firm foothold, he arranged for him to enter the army, and then gradually became a county captain of Wuyin county.


    At the thought of going further, Lin Huan was also extremely excited.


    This is an opportunity.


    After he became a county magistrate, he was able to reap more benefits.


    After talking with Lin Zhen for a while, Lin Huan got up and left to do his own business.

 Chapter 98

    On the official road leading to Wuyin County, a team of Wu was on their way.


    In the army, a big flag flutters in the wind, hunting.


    On the flag is embroidered the word "Zhang".


    This is Zhang Xiu''s flag.


    After Zhang Xiu left Wan county with his troops, he went north to the places where he had passed, and the magistrates of each county surrendered one after another. Although Zhang Xiu accepted the obedience of the counties, she did not ignore it.


    He inquired into the situation in detail in each county and found out the situation of the officials in each county. All officials who violate the law, discipline, corruption and the law shall be dismissed and investigated for responsibility.


    Those who are honest and clean perform their duties.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is going to Wuyin county.


    At noon.


    Bury the pot, build the camp.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Dao and asked, "Uncle Zhi, you said that the magistrate and the county captain of Wuyin County fled, leaving only your Uncle Chen Fu in Wuyin county. What do you think of them? "


    After thinking about it, Chen Dao said with a straight face: "I will report back to my Lord that I will be in Wuyin County for only one or two months. I don''t know much about it. I can only say what I knew at that time."


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Chen Dao replied, "the magistrate of Wuyin county is Lin Zhen. In the period of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, he bought the official through eunuch Zhang rang. Lin Huan, the county captain of Wuyin County, is Lin Zhen''s nephew. "


    "Both men are extremely greedy."


    "The people in Wuyin County hate them to the bone."


    "When the Huns went south, as soon as the news reached Wuyin County, their uncles and nephews fled with soldiers and money."


    When Chen mentioned Lin Zhen''s uncle and nephew, he was also a little more indignant, but he didn''t add fuel to it, saying: "as for more information, I don''t know. When the Lord arrives in Wuyin County, he will visit the local people and get more detailed information. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "if you say so, after arriving in Wuyin County, I will promote your uncle to be the magistrate of Wuyin county. Chen Fu has the ability, and I''m not afraid to be promoted. "


    Excited, Chen Dao quickly arched his hand and said, "thank you, Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "he deserves it."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "you''re not going back to your hometown when you go back to Wuyin County, but when you go back to the place where your uncle works, you''ll be able to return home half a year later."


    Chen Dao said, "it all depends on the esteem of the Lord."


    They chatted and talked about military affairs.


    After lunch, the army left for Wuyin county.


    After entering Wuyin County, Zhang Xiu''s army was soon discovered by Wuyin County soldiers, and the news first spread to Lin Zhen of Wuyin county.


    When Lin Zhen learns that Zhang Xiu is coming with a large army, he gets excited.


    This is an opportunity to please Zhang Xiu.


    After he thought about it for a while, he called for Lin Huan and asked, "Lin Huan, I heard that you have taken a concubine recently. You are as white as jade and beautiful as heaven, aren''t you?"


    Lin Huan blinked. He couldn''t figure out Lin Zhen''s intention and said, "uncle, what are you doing here?"


    Lin Zhen said, "I''ll ask you if you have any."


    "Yes!"


    Lin Huan answered honestly.


    In front of Lin Zhen, he is like a mouse meeting a cat, naturally with fear.


    Lin Zhen stroked the goatee under his jaw and said, "if only I had it. I just got the news from the sentinel. Zhang Xiu led the army to Wuyin county."


    "Zhang Xiu is a young man, young and vigorous. It is the so-called hero who loves beauty. If he comes and presents him with a beauty, he will surely win the favor of Zhang Xiu. "


    "In addition, I will take out money and jade. If I have money and color, I will surely capture Zhang Xiu''s heart. As long as Zhang Xiu is happy, you and my nephew''s official position will be stable. "


    Lin Zhen said: "otherwise Zhang Xiu will not be happy and we will both be finished."


    Lin Huan drew his cheek and said, "uncle, I give my own woman to Zhang Xiu. Does that mean that Zhang embroiders my woman. When the news comes out, where will my face go? "


    Lin Zhen said, "do you have a face?"


    "I..."


    As soon as Lin Huan spoke, he was interrupted by Lin Zhen''s wave.


    Lin Zhen looks cold and fierce, and says strongly, "you are a mischievous thing, but a woman. Women are like clothes. If you don''t have them, just look for them. If you lose the power in my hands, you can''t have anything. "


    Lin Huan Gudong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "my nephew really likes Yufeng. Can you change someone?"


    Yufeng is the name of my concubine.


    Lin Huan looked at Lin Zhen with an expectant look on his face.


    Lin Zhen slapped him on the desk, and the loud noise startled Lin Huan. In an instant, Lin Huan did not dare to argue any more. He said honestly, "nephew, listen to my uncle. I will bring Yufeng back when I go back."


    Lin Zhen nodded: "in the evening, I hold a banquet for Zhang Xiu. At that time, you let Yufeng dance, and then let her accompany Zhang Xiu with wine. You must make Zhang Xiu happy. ""Yes


    Lin Huan answered again.


    Just at this moment, he felt green on his head, but he had nothing to do. Who let Zhang Xiu be so fierce?


    Lin Zhen asked Lin Huan to step down and wait for the news quietly.


    Time goes by.


    When Zhang Xiu was less than 20 miles away from Wuyin County, the news came back.


    At this time, Lin Zhen had everything ready.


    Lin Zhen waited a little longer. When he learned that Zhang Xiu was less than ten miles away from the county seat, he led the county officials to the South Gate of Wuyin county.


    A crowd stood together.


    It''s October now. It''s cool in autumn. It''s quite comfortable.


    Lin Zhen waited quietly.


    Not long, beside Lin Zhen, there were soldiers shouting, and there were troops in front of him. When Lin Zhen heard this, he looked forward and saw the army on the official road. His spirit was shocked.


    He stretched out his hand, straightened his clothes, held his head high and waited quietly.


    Distance, a little closer.


    When Zhang Xiu was less than a hundred steps away from the county, Lin Zhen took people out and quickly welcomed them. When he was less than ten steps away from Zhang Xiu''s army, he folded his hands and bowed 90 degrees to salute, saying: "I''m Lin Zhen, the next official of Wuyin County, to welcome general Zhang. General Zhang has made outstanding contributions in killing huchuquan and defeating Xiongnu. It can be said that his contribution is higher than that of heaven. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard Lin Zhen''s words, her eyebrows rose.


    It''s Lin Zhen?


    What''s new?


    Zhang Xiu''s face didn''t move. She said in a deep voice, "are you Lin Zhen?"


    "Yes," said Lin Zhen


    Suddenly, Lin Zhen''s heart became nervous. Because from Zhang Xiu''s words, he felt a hint of coldness, and even more felt the coldness in Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "where is Lin Huan?"


    When Lin Huan heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was very happy. He thought that he was a nobody who had been dancing in Wuyin county all the time, and his reputation spread to Zhang Xiu. He was really happy.


    Lin Huan stepped out, raised his head, and said, "General Zhang, I''m Lin Huan. The general even knows the name of the officer. I''m very lucky. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Lin Zhen and Lin Huan. Her face became colder and colder. She ordered, "come on, take Lin Zhen and Lin Huan away."


    "Here it is


    Soldiers must be ordered to go straight ahead.


    At the moment when the soldiers started, Lin Zhen and Lin Huan were all staring at each other with an incredible look. They never thought that Zhang Xiu would do it directly.


    Lin Zhen retreated one after another and said in a loud voice, "General Zhang, what are you doing?"


    Zhang Xiu did not answer.


    A moment later, Lin Zhen and Lin Huan were taken down, and their struggle was futile.


    Lin Zhen had a bad premonition in his heart, and suppressed his confusion. He said: "General Zhang, my junior officer worked hard during his stay in Wuyin County, and now he takes people to meet him personally. I don''t know. Why did general Zhang take us? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer, "you two have done a lot of evil deeds. They are the people who have been killed."


    Lin Zhen said, "my Lord, it''s wrong!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it is not wrong to be wronged. After Ben will understand clearly, there will be results. It has the final say that you has the final say, or the official has the final say.


    Lin Zhen''s face changed greatly.


    At this moment, he began to despair.


    He has committed countless crimes himself. Now that he is taken by Zhang Xiu, he will surely die.


    Zhang Xiu glanced and asked, "where is Chen Fu? Who is Chen Fu


    Among the officials, it''s quiet.


    None of them spoke, all of them said they didn''t know.


    Zhang Xiu said: "such a big Wuyin County, does no one know Chen Fu?"


    At this time, a petty official stood up and replied, "report back to General Zhang. Mr. Chen Fu was put into prison by Lin Zhen and is now in custody."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a big drink.


    When he looked at Lin Zhen, his eyes were even sharper.


    When they met the Huns, they ran faster than rabbits. After the Huns were annihilated, they came back to deal with Chen Fu. It''s damned.

 Chapter 99

    When Zhang Xiu learned that Chen Fu was being detained in a cell, she did not delay any longer and led the team straight into the city.


    When the army entered the city, they took over the city defense.


    the whole dance Yin county up and down, since then changed, the Zhang embroidery has the final say. After taking over the city defense, Zhang Xiu arranges Huang Zhao to lead the troops to the county government.


    While on the way, Zhang Xiu sends Chen to the prison to bring Chen Fu out.


    At this time, the county government prison.


    Chen Fu curled up in the corner, dressed in brown prison clothes, hair, look very haggard. He was a middle-aged man with elegant demeanor, but at this moment, he was in a great depression.


    Up and down, full of loneliness.


    He worked hard in Wuyin County, and finally came to such an end. It''s really sad.


    Chen Fu sat in the corner, his eyes a little absent. He looked back on what he had done in Wuyin county. He thought of what he had done for Wuyin County, but he became a prisoner and regretted it.


    When the Huns went south, the news spread to Wuyin county. Lin Zhen and Lin Huan left with the soldiers, and he took over the whole Wuyin county. With his ability, it''s not a problem to take advantage of Wuyin county.


    Even the Huns were killed by Zhang Xiu, and the news came back to Wuyin county. Lin Zhen came back with the people. If Chen Fu is decisive, he can lead his troops to fight against Lin Zhen. He is confident that he can win.


    But because he was the county magistrate and Lin Zhen was the county magistrate, Chen Fu finally gave in.


    Lin Zhen was allowed to enter the city.


    So that when Lin Zhen came to power, he quickly elevated him and put him in prison.


    Chen Fu''s heart is filled with regret.


    Regret that he was soft hearted at that time, let Lin Zhen into the city, otherwise he would not be a prisoner.


    More regret their cowardice, dare not fight with Lin Zhen.


    Endless regret gnaws at Chen Fu''s heart, which makes Chen Fu more decadent.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of walking came from the aisle of the cell, and a figure appeared in Chen Fu''s eyes.


    His name was Li Mu, a confidant of Lin Huan.


    Li Mu is the head of the cell. He gets Lin Huan''s orders and has to clean up Chen Fu from time to time.


    Cleaning up Chen Fu is Li Mu''s daily work.


    Li Mu has triangular eyes and long cheeks, just like a donkey''s face. With a whip in his hand, he wandered to the door of the cell, opened the door and entered. He looked at Chen Fu with a smile and said, "Chen Fu, I''m here again."


    When Chen Fu saw Li Mu, his eyes were calm without any fluctuation.


    He was beaten countless times.


    It''s numb.


    Although the body is extremely painful, Chen Fu knows that no matter how hard he struggles, it''s useless. Li Mu would not give up to deal with him just because he begged for mercy and struggled, let alone because he scolded him.


    Seeing that Chen Fu didn''t reply, Li Mu said coldly, "Chen Fu, I''m not happy today. You have to be careful, don''t annoy me, or I''ll make you flesh and blood. In the past, just a simple clean up you. If you don''t cooperate today, you will see life and death under the whip. "


    In Chen Fu''s eyes, there is a touch of irony.


    He knows Li Mu.


    Li Mu has no other preference, he likes gambling. Once you lose the bet, you have to lose your mind. You have to deal with him or even let him give you money. Now in front of him, he looks like a threat. He must have lost money in gambling.


    Seeing Chen Fu''s sarcastic expression, Li Mu felt evil in his heart. He raised his whip and slapped it on Chen Fu''s shoulder.


    A whip fell and Chen Fu was convulsed with pain.


    It''s a pain. It''s heart splitting.


    Especially during Chen Fu''s time in the cell, he couldn''t eat well and sleep well, and he was often beaten. His injuries accumulated, and he never recovered. The whole person''s physical condition was not very good.


    In the original scar did not recover completely, it is a whip down, Chen Fu is pain.


    Chen Fu bit his teeth, but he didn''t say a word.


    At this moment, he clenched his hands, clenched his fist, and bit his lips.


    Li Mu snorted: "Chen Fu, you''ve been beaten so much. You''ve got some guts for not saying a word. However, no matter how tough you are, it''s useless. "


    Chen Fu bit and endured the pain. After a long time, the pain slowed down.


    Whoo!


    Chen Fuchang sighed.


    There was a slight puff in his cheek, and his clenched fist loosened.


    Li Mu said, "Chen Fu, I''ve been ordered by the county captain to deal with you if you have anything to do. But as long as you give me the money, I can spare you a little bit and act like it. If the county captain asks about something, I say that I have beaten you, and you also make an appearance to answer, everyone can get by. You''re in good health, and I can earn money, don''t you think? Take some money out, and everyone will be better. "


    "No way!"


    Chen Fu refused and said, "I didn''t have any extra money when I was an official. Besides, even if I have money, I can''t give it to a villain like you. "


    "You want to die!"


    When Li Mu heard Chen Fu''s words, he was very angry.All he asked for was a little money. He knows that the county magistrate and the county captain are very rich and have a lot of money. In the same way, Chen Fu, as a county magistrate, must have a lot of money.


    In his opinion, it is Chen Fu who looks down on him and is unwilling to give it to him.


    After Li Mu was very angry, he swung the whip and pulled it down.


    "Pa!"


    However, Chen remained silent, and still remained silent.


    "I make your mouth cheap!"


    "I don''t want you to cooperate!"


    "I make you look down on me!"


    As he spoke, Li Mu swung his whip. Each whip fell down on Chen Fu, leaving a mark on his body and shaking his body.


    From the beginning to the end, Chen Fu didn''t say a word.


    Although he is not good at martial arts and weak, he is proud and will not yield to the threat of villains. Under the severe pain, he bit and endured, his face was red, and his eyes were covered with blood.


    Li Mu kept venting. After a while, he stopped.


    Chen Fu''s body trembled and collapsed on the wormwood, his face full of ferocious look because of pain. Wave after wave of pain hit him, and he was in agony.


    Li Mu clenched his teeth and asked again, "Chen Fu, do you have any money?"


    "No!"


    Chen Fu bit his teeth and said, "even if I have money, I can''t give it to you. Wuyin county is located in a remote area. There are so many poor people to look after. I would rather give them my money than give you such a dog slave. "


    When Li Mu heard Chen Fu''s words, he became angry and was ready to kill.


    He had lost money, his heart was very depressed. At the moment, Chen Fu''s anger was irrepressible. He walked up to Chen Fu and whipped a few lashes, but he couldn''t get rid of his anger at all. He just threw away his whip, swung his foot and kicked Chen Fu.


    "Bang! Bang


    Kick on Chen Fu''s body, send out stuffy sound.


    Chen Fu is not good at martial arts. He knows how to curl up and let his back bear the strength to protect his body. He was biting his teeth and clenching his hands to keep his pain from making a sound.


    Eyes, but there are tears flashing.


    He was a scholar and a scholar, but he was humiliated by villains, which can be seen from his inner humiliation.


    "Chen Fu, if you don''t cooperate, I will accept you today. The county magistrate didn''t let me kill you because he thought that you still had some fame. Killing you had a great impact. Even if I kill you, I can say that you are dead. How arrogant you are. "


    Li Mu''s intention to kill rose.


    He didn''t like Chen Fu. He was so proud.


    Damn this man!


    He kept kicking, only when he started, a sound of footwork came from the aisle.


    It was Chen Dao who came.


    He rushed to the prison first, then rushed to Chen Fu''s cell. As soon as he arrived, Chen Fu curled up in the corner while Li Mu kept beating him.


    In a flash, Chen Dao''s eyes were red.


    He dashed into the cell with a lunge, and then he punched out.

 Chapter 100

    Chen Dao''s one punch, do his best.


    His angry punch fell on Li Mu''s back like lightning.


    "Bang!"


    A punch fell, Lee Mu a dog nibble, plop fell to the ground, the whole person incomparably embarrassed. But when he fell down, before he saw Chen Dao, he burst out and scolded, "who doesn''t have long eyes, dare to beat me, and live impatiently?"


    Fortunately, the blow just now hit the scapula on Li Mu''s back, so he didn''t get hurt. Rao is so, his shoulder blades are dull pain, very uncomfortable.


    Li Mu stood up and saw Chen Dao.


    He didn''t know Chen.


    After all, when Chen Dao was in Wuyin County, he always lived in Chen Fu''s home and seldom got to the county government directly. There are not many people in the county government who know Chen.


    Li Mu gritted his teeth and said, "who are you? How dare you break into the cell without permission? Are you not afraid of being caught by the government? "


    When Chen Dao heard Li Mu''s words, he saw Chen Fu lying on the ground. His miserable appearance made him angry. Without saying a word, he swung his fist again and hit Li Mu.


    "You want to die!"


    Li Mu also knows some Kung Fu. When he saw Chen Dao waving his fist, he yelled at him, and then he made a fist to Chen Dao.


    Two fists, instant collision.


    "Click!"


    Suddenly, the sound of a broken phalanx came out.


    "Ah


    Li Mu opened his mouth and uttered a shrill scream.


    At the moment when the two fists collided, Li Mu felt the great power from each other''s fists, which broke his phalanx, hurt his right hand even more, and his body could not stop retreating.


    A buttock, then fell to sit on the ground.


    Looking at Chen Dao, his face was full of panic.


    How terrible!


    How scary!


    "Come on, come on


    Li Mu roared loudly, hoping that the jailer not far away could come in. But after a while, there was no sound. Li Mu was not a man with no eyesight. When he looked outside again, he didn''t see his jailer coming, so he judged that he was out of the game.


    Li Mu turned his mind and knew that he was not the opponent of the man in front of him.


    Seeing Chen Dao striding forward, Li Mu couldn''t help shivering and kneeling on the ground with the pain on his hand bone, and said in a loud voice, "good man, please spare my life. I had to beat Chen Fu. I was ordered by Lin Huan. If I don''t beat Chen Fu, Lin Huan will clean me up. "


    After hearing this, Chen Dao heard Chen Fu''s painful voice, so he ignored Li Mu and went straight to Chen Fu.


    At the moment, Chen Fu is also smiling.


    Just this smile, but full of heartache, there are countless pains in the smile.


    "Shuzhi, you are back."


    Chen Fu spoke, but his voice was a little hoarse.


    He is in pain all over at the moment.


    Because there are countless whiplash marks on his body, as well as injuries left by Li Mu''s fists and kicks.


    Chen Dao said, "uncle, you have suffered."


    Thinking of the current situation, Chen Fu said in a loud voice: "Uncle Zhi, leave me alone, you go quickly. You come to the cell, and soon there will be a jailer. Once the jailer comes, after the conflict, and the army arrives, you can''t go no matter how skillful you are. "


    He was alone in prison, that''s all.


    He didn''t want to involve Chen Dao.


    With a smile, Chen Dao said, "don''t worry, uncle. I didn''t come back alone. My Lord also came. The Lord led the army to Wuyin county and has taken uncle Lin Zhen. You''re OK. "


    Chen Fu understood and had a surprise look on his face. He asked, "General Zhang has come to Wuyin county?"


    "Yes


    Chen Dao nodded.


    At the moment, Li Mu heard it and his heart sank. During this period, he tortured Chen Fu day by day. If Chen Fu escaped from prison, his fate can be imagined.


    While the two nephews were talking, Li Mu stood up quietly and slipped out.


    Chen Dao reached for the whip and pulled it out.


    "Pa!"


    The whip lashed on the left leg of Li Mu and made a loud sound.


    The whip was so powerful that when it hit Li Mu''s leg, it immediately burst into tears. The severe pain made Li Mu falter and fall to the ground.


    Chen Dao walked up to Li Mu, looked at Li Mu coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "you are such a little pawn that you beat my uncle. You''re tired of living. "


    He raised his leg and stepped on it.


    This foot stepped on Li Mu''s injured hand bone, in a flash, Li Mu was even more painful.


    Endless pain, from the bone of the hand.


    He kept struggling and yelling, with a look of great pain on his face.


    Chen Dao, however, seemed to have never heard of it. He stretched out his hand and drew out his sword with a clang sound. Under the bright light of the sword, there was a chill.Although Chen Fu was in pain all over his body, when he saw Chen Dao''s action, he understood it and said, "Uncle Zhi, don''t kill people indiscriminately. Once the news reaches General Zhang''s ears, it will affect you. "


    Chen Fu suffered great humiliation. He also wanted revenge, but considering Chen Dao''s future, he didn''t want him to kill.


    "Uncle, he deserves to die," Chen said


    "No, don''t kill me."


    At this time, Li Mu didn''t care about anything else, so he asked for mercy. Compared with his own life, he didn''t care about the pain of injury.


    "I was ordered to kill people. No wonder I did. No wonder I did. It was all Lin Huan''s orders."


    Li Mu asked for mercy.


    He turned and looked at Chen Fu, pleading for mercy: "Mr. Xian Cheng, please, please forgive me. I''m damned. I''m guilty. It''s all my fault. I have eyes and don''t know Taishan. Please spare my life. "


    Chen Fu was also worried that Chen Dao would be punished and said, "Uncle Zhi, you should think it over."


    "Don''t worry, uncle," Chen said


    He stared at the curtain lying on the ground. His eyes were as sharp as a knife. He said harshly, "you are the head of the cell, although you are ordered by Lin Huan. But if you have a little compassion, you won''t beat your uncle. Damn you


    He raised the sword in his hand and stabbed it.


    The sharp edge of the sword turned into a streamer. In an instant, it penetrated into Li Mu''s heart.


    "Yiliu!"


    A splash of blood.


    The shrill cry came from Li Mu''s mouth.


    At this moment, Li Mu was extremely flustered in his heart. He constantly struggled and talked in his mouth.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    Chen went to his hand and drew out his sword. At the moment when the sword pulled away, the red blood, gurgling like a spring, constantly overflowed from Li Mu''s chest and dyed his clothes red.


    Li Mu was bleeding in his mouth and his eyes widened.


    He stretched out his hand to shake in the air, his face was full of reluctance, but after two convulsions, he lost his breath.


    Chen Fu said: "Uncle Zhi, did you kill Li Mu


    "Don''t worry, uncle. I''ll tell my Lord about it," Chen said


    With that, he went up to Chen Fu and tried to help him. But after being beaten by Li Mu, Chen Fu was injured all over, his legs were weak and he could not stand firm.


    "Uncle, I''ll carry you


    He squatted down, directly picked up Chen Fu and left the cell step by step.


    When Chen Dao entered the county government, Zhang Xiu led the army. And Zhang Xiu is also in the county government to deal with things, in this short period of time, Zhang Xiu has found out the situation of Chen Fu.


    According to the common people and the Yamen officers, Chen Fu is a clean and honest official who can benefit the people.


    This is a man of ability.


    And there''s a bottom line, a conscience.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, such officials are needed.


    When Zhang Xiu was working in the hall, the soldier reported that Chen had arrived. When he heard the footsteps, he looked up and saw that Chen Dao was carrying a middle-aged man with hair and injuries on his back.


    Needless to say, Zhang Xiu knows it''s Chen Fu.


    Seeing Chen Fu like this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Lin Zhen and Lin Huan, who were standing at the bottom of the hall.


    At the moment, both are tied up.


    Staring at by Zhang Xiu, Lin Zhen and Lin Huan can''t help beating a cicada.


    Both of them were startled.


    Lin Zhen suddenly raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Huan. Now he had the heart to kill him. He had already told Lin Huan that he could not move Chen Fu for the time being. He would deal with Chen Fu after the Xiongnu affairs were over.


    But now, Chen Fu is full of injuries.


    Obviously, it was arranged by Lin Huan.


    Lin Zhen''s heart sank. He had been detained by Zhang Xiu and was in trouble. Now Chen Fu is such a situation, Zhang Xiu is likely to be angry with him, the situation is even worse.

 Chapter 101

    Chen Dao, carrying Chen Fu on his back, went to the hall and stood down before putting Chen Fu down. At the moment, Chen Fu''s spirit recovered a little and could barely stand. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he looked neither humble nor haughty. He arched his hand and said, "my next officer Chen Fu, I''d like to meet general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    However, Chen Dao knelt down and pleaded guilty: "if you kill the jailer who guards the prison, please surrender."


    Zhang Xiu said, "did the jailer abuse Chen Fu?"


    Seeing that Chen Fu was injured all over, Zhang Xiu guessed it directly.


    Chen Dao replied: "Lord Shengming, when he entered the prison, he happened to see the jailer kicking and punching his uncle. Uncle''s body, everywhere is the whip mark. The uncle was badly injured by the prison guards. In a fit of indignation, he killed the jailer


    Zhang xiudao: "kill it, kill it. Get up."


    "Thank you


    Chen Dao stood up and said again, "the reason why the jailer abused his uncle and caused him to be injured all over is that he was ordered by county captain Lin Huan and county magistrate Lin Zhen to ask the Lord to give justice to his uncle."


    He hated uncle and nephew Lin Zhen to the bone.


    In the past, Lin Zhen''s nephew was afraid of the Huns and fled without fighting, leaving behind a mess. Chen Fu is not afraid of life and death, efforts to stabilize the situation in Wuyin County, so that the people did not flee everywhere.


    After the Huns were killed, Lin Zhen took over the power and sent Chen Fu to prison. He also treated Chen Fu harshly, which made Chen Dao angry.


    "Plop!"


    When Lin Zhen heard Chen Dao''s words, he knelt down on the ground.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Lin Zhen kowtowed to the ground with his head and said solemnly, "General Zhang, I''m wronged. I''m wronged. The reason why he sent Chen Fu to prison is not to avenge himself, but to receive a letter from the common people denouncing Chen Fu. "


    "Therefore, Chen Fu was sent to prison."


    "Rao is so. From the beginning to the end, he never let the jailer treat Chen Fu harshly. He even ordered the prison guards to take good care of Chen Fu and not treat him badly. "


    "The reason why the officer ordered the jailers to treat Chen Fu kindly was not hypocritical. It was because he considered Chen Fu Wei''s high expectations. Once there was no evidence, he would deal with it at will, which would easily lead to unrest."


    Lin Zhen said quickly: "it''s just that the officer didn''t expect that Lin Huan, the son of a bitch, arbitrarily ordered the jailer to abuse Chen Fu. Please tell General Zhang Mingjian that it must be Lin Huan who is in charge of abusing Chen Fu. It has nothing to do with me. "


    In order to survive, Lin Zhen put the responsibility on Lin Huan.


    When Lin Huan heard Lin Zhen''s words, he knelt to one side and quickly explained, "General Zhang, spare your life! It''s none of my business. I''m under orders


    Lin Huan was also flustered.


    He didn''t want to die, so he was ordered.


    Lin Zhen shirks responsibility, and so does he, because he doesn''t want to die.


    Lin Zhen''s face changed greatly when he heard the speech.


    He did not expect that his nephew would bite him in turn. He looked at Chen Dao with a pleading look in his eyes, hoping that Chen Dao would open up.


    Unfortunately, Chen Dao turned a blind eye.


    After Zhang Xiu arrived in Wuyin County, he had already found out the situation of Lin Huan and Lin Zhen. All these questions were asked about the people in Wuyin county. When they talked about uncle and nephew Lin Huan, they were all angry, and they all wanted uncle and nephew Lin Zhen to die.


    In the words of the common people, Lin Zhen had to scrape three feet of land wherever he went in order to plunder money.


    These two uncles and nephews are full of evil deeds.


    Zhang Xiu asked Chen Dao to get up. Without hesitation, she directly ordered, "come on!"


    Soldiers come in and salute.


    Zhang Xiu said: "drag Lin Zhen and Lin Huan down and kill them, and then hang their bodies outside the south gate for three days."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to drag Lin Zhen and Lin Huan out.


    They were both stunned.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t even examine them, so she executed them directly. It was too direct.


    Lin Zhen, in particular, just said that he wanted to get rid of his crime by shifting the responsibility to Lin Huan. However, he did not expect that this would be the case.


    Lin Zhen loudly begged for mercy, hoping that Zhang Xiu would let him die, but no matter how he yelled, it would not help.


    Soon, Lin Zhen and Lin Huan were dragged out.


    The scream came from outside.


    Lin Zhen and Lin Huan died in the hands of the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Fu calmly and said in a deep voice, "Chen Fu, when you face the Xiongnu people, you dare to fight. You''d rather die than retreat. You''re a clean official and devoted to the people. With courage, ability and integrity, it should be a model of Wuyin county. From now on, you will take over the post of county magistrate and preside over the affairs of Wuyin county. "


    "General Xie!"


    Chen Fu was also excited.


    As the county magistrate of Wuyin County, he is also in charge, and he will not be hindered at last.


    That''s what he''s wanted for years.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the first thing you do after you take office is to check the property of Lin Zhen and Lin Huan."


    "Here it isChen Fu responded directly.


    He has been in Wuyin county all the time. He is familiar with the situation and knows more about the corruption of Lin Huan and Lin Zhen. It is most suitable for him to be in charge of checking the affairs of the Lin family.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "you are seriously injured. Do you need to rest for a day or two before dealing with the government affairs of Wuyin county?"


    "No need!"


    Chen Fu shook his head and said: "the injury of humble duty is just skin injury, it doesn''t matter. Now, we can handle things normally. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, got up and left, and went to the place where the army was stationed near the county government.


    Chen Dao did not leave for the time being.


    When he came back to Chen Fu, he had a lot to say to his uncle.


    Chen Fu''s eyes fell on Chen Dao and asked, "Uncle Zhi, you follow general Zhang. What does he do to you?"


    Chen Dao said with a smile: "my lord treats me very well and treats me like a heart."


    "That''s good!"


    With a satisfied smile on his face, Chen Fu said, "since general Zhang values you, I''ll work for him. General Zhang entered Nanyang County for the first time. In a short period of two or three months, he made such a big foundation. If you follow general Zhang, you will surely be able to accomplish something in the future. "


    Chen Dao said, "my nephew will remember my uncle''s advice."


    They talked and talked about what happened recently.


    At the end of the reminiscence, Chen Dao left the county government, while Chen Fu began to get busy. He adjusted the officials of the county government and reorganized the officialdom of Wuyin county. Originally, after Lin Zhen left Wuyin County, the officials promoted by Chen Fu were all capable and practical people. But after Lin Zhen came back, these people were beaten down and replaced by Lin Zhen''s people.


    Chen Fu is familiar with the situation and orders to go down. The demotion of the demoted official, the demotion of the demoted official, the promotion of the demoted official, the promotion of the demoted official, and the whole Wuyin County suddenly take on a new look.


    Everything is working again.


    After Chen Fu arranged the personnel, he dispatched the Yamen officers to seal up Lin Zhen and Lin Huan, and dismissed their servants and family members. In a short time, he finished the inventory of their families.


    After all, Chen Fu is familiar with these things.


    After all processing, Chen Fu takes the statistics and comes to the barracks where Zhang Xiu is.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, Chen Fu handed over the bamboo slips and said, "general Qi, the property of Lin Zhen and Lin Huan has been checked. The two families did not have much food, mainly gold and silver, as well as some jade treasures, but more land deeds. All the data are listed. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at it again, but she was not too surprised.


    Lin Zhen and Lin Huan''s family is rich, but they are much worse than the Deng family in Nanyang.


    Zhang Xiu put down the bamboo slips and said, "all the money and jade have rushed into the Treasury of Wuyin county. Nowadays, people in Wuyin county are quite poor. You use these money and gold, silver and jade to benefit the people. "


    "General Xie."


    Chen Fu was overjoyed.


    In fact, today''s Wuyin County Treasury, the lack of money and food, very difficult.


    The reason is that during the reign of Lin Zhen, almost all of his money and food went into his personal pocket, and few of them were confiscated, which led to the deficit of the county government treasury.


    With this money, Chen Fu can pay salaries, buy food, mobilize people to build fortifications, cultivate farmland, build ditches, so as to develop Wuyin County as soon as possible.


    Zhang Xiu inquired about Chen Fu''s next arrangements. After hearing Chen Fu''s plan, Zhang Xiu was relieved.


    After staying in Wuyin County for two days, Zhang Xiu continued to set out.


    All the way north, Zhang Xiu smoothly controlled all the areas north of Yuyang county. But all the incompetent or corrupt officials were dealt with one by one by Zhang Xiu and replaced by competent and practical people.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to Yuyang County, it was early November.


    It''s winter and it''s cold.


    Especially this year''s weather, especially cold, just in early November, there has been a large-scale snow. Inside and outside the whole Yuyang County, it was covered with snow.


    After Zhang Xiu returned to the county government, Xu Shu entered and reported the recent situation, he said, "Lord, Pang Gong and Huang Gong have come to Yuyang county. I have something important to see you. I asked them, but they kept it a secret. They said that there was the most important thing and they had to say it face to face. They say you must go when you come back. "


    "I''m going now!"


    Zhang Xiu stood up and went out.


    But after he took two steps, he stopped and said, "Yuanzhi, please inform corporal yuan. You come with me. After all, we all come from lumen mountain. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu did not refuse, but directly responded.

 Chapter 102

    Zhang Xiu takes Xu Shu and Pang Tong away from the county government office and goes straight to Huang''s shop.


    Huang''s house, study.


    Zhang Xiu is familiar with the entry of the road, after seeing Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan, bow to salute and then sit down.


    Xu Shu and Pang Tong also sat on one side.


    Zhang Xiu said: "teacher and Huang Gong came to Yuyang county together, but what''s the most important thing?"


    "There is a big deal."


    Pang Degong nodded, took out a stack of paper from the desk beside him, handed it to Zhang Xiu and said, "come on, have a look."


    When Zhang Xiu saw the paper, she took it and stroked it. She was very surprised and said, "the paper was made. It''s a great joy."


    Nowadays, reading is not easy.


    It is very difficult for poor scholars to study. The reason is that most of the books are recorded on bamboo slips, and only the rich and powerful families have such details about the preservation of bamboo slips.


    Ordinary people can''t do it at all.


    With paper, it can lead to essential changes.


    Pang Degong stroked his beard with a smile and said slowly: "Chengyan has developed a new paper, but this paper has no clear name for the time being. When we go north, we need to name the paper. Although this is made by Cheng Yan, you can record the technological process, so you can name the new paper. "


    "Yes, you want a name," Huang said


    Zhang Xiu thought about it, then said: "since let me name it, then I''m not polite, take Xuan paper as the name."


    In later generations, Xuan paper was the best paper.


    It is hoped that the paper named after Xuan paper can also achieve the achievements of later Xuan paper.


    Pound just: "Xuan, it means to advertise. Xuan paper is to let people all over the world know, and also to let scholars all over the world use it. The name of Xuan paper is very good. "


    After a pause, Mr. pound said, "the name of paper has been set, and the next step is the profit distribution of Xuan paper. This time, it''s still Pang and Huang working together. According to the distribution of profits, you account for 40% of the profits, and Pang and Huang each account for 30%


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "teacher, I have another plan."


    Pound is fair: "what plan?"


    Huang Chengyan joked: "Jiang Ping, to give you 40% of the benefits, is already to take care of you. Don''t talk like a lion, you little boy


    Zhang xiudao said, "don''t worry, Mr. Huang!"


    Huang Chengyan said: "you say it!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "regarding the sale of Xuan paper, I want to bring the Kuai family into the business. When the Kuai family entered, I gave 10% of the profits to the Kuai family and distributed them according to three, three, three and one profits. Of course, the premise is that the Kuai family can be used for me. If the Kuai family is not for my use, then I will not agree to give them 10% profit. "


    Pound is fair: "I don''t have any opinions, but it depends on Chengyan''s opinions."


    "I agree with you," said Huang


    Now Huang Chengyan has regarded Zhang Xiu as his son-in-law. Zhang Xiu, as his son-in-law, will take the opportunity to win over the Kuai family and enhance their strength. He will not object to it and will strongly support it.


    Most importantly, Zhang Xiu used her own interests to win over the Kuai family, but did not weaken the interests of Pang and Huang.


    That''s no problem.


    "Are you sure to persuade Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, Jiang Ping?" Pang asked


    Zhang Xiu replied: "it should not be difficult. Before Gong Du and Liu PI attacked Yuyang County, it was the Kuai family''s letter that made me prepare in advance. Later, Wei Yan''s letter came from the Kuai family in Wan county. Now, Kuai Qi is by my side and works for me. It should not be difficult to persuade the Kuai family. "


    Pound raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "how could it be? It''s the Kuai family''s bet on you. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s true."


    Pound said with a smile: "if so, it''s not difficult to attract the Kuai family. You don''t have to go to Xiangyang in person. I''ll help you lobby the Kuai family. "


    Zhang Xiu was very happy and said, "the teacher is willing to be the best. Thank you very much."


    With the persuading of Pang Degong himself, the Kuai family will soon change its flag.


    With the support of Pang family, Kuai family and Huang family, even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t capture Jingzhou for the time being, he also has a certain degree of control over Jingzhou, which is the best for Zhang Xiu.


    After the business was settled, everyone changed the subject and talked about some miscellaneous things that happened recently.


    Xu Shu and Pang Tong also joined in.


    A chat makes the guests and the host happy.


    After dark, Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong and Xu Shu had dinner at Huang''s house before they got up and left.


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan are resting at Huang''s home. Tomorrow morning, they will leave for Xiangyang. Rice paper has been successfully produced. Next, the two companies will manufacture rice paper in large quantities and prepare for the sale of rice paper.


    Pang Zhugong said, "it''s Zhang Xuantong who laughs again. The advent of Xuan paper will certainly replace Zuo Bo paper and bamboo slips. Because of the appearance of Xuan paper, great changes will take place in the whole Han Dynasty. "Zhang Xiu said, "this is a good thing."


    Xu Shu said: "the Lord used Xuan paper to win over the Kuai family, which can be described as a magic stroke. The Kuai family is optimistic about the Lord. With the interest of Xuan paper, the Kuai family will definitely get on the boat. "


    "With the support of Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family, it will be easy for us to capture Xiangyang in the future," Zhang said


    The three took a carriage, chatted and soon returned to the county government.


    Xu Shu and Pang Tong went to rest, and Zhang Xiu also had an early rest. At this time, Zhang Xiu began to idle down, because now it is approaching the cold winter, the weather is getting colder, the snow is flying, Zhang Xiu can not go everywhere.


    In Zhang Xiu''s spare time, he received a letter from Pang Degong after returning to Xiangyang. Pang Degong had already met Kuai Liang, and convinced the Kuai family to submit to Zhang Xiu. He also shared 10% of the profits of Xuan paper business with the Kuai family.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised.


    The Kuai family originally intended to help him, but now they have the interests of Xuan paper, so it''s natural for the Kuai family to work.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t worry about the arrangement of Xuan paper by Pang Degong and others.


    All he needs is money.


    With the passage of time, the sale of Quyuan plow and bobbin carts, and a lot of money, turned into Zhang Xiu''s hands. He has more and more money in his hands. There is no lack of money at all.


    On this day, Xu Shu came to the study in a hurry.


    Xu Shu''s face was dignified. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Lord, this winter is very cold. Even the rivers in Yuyang county have frozen. "


    "Many people''s livestock are frozen to death."


    "Even the people in the county can''t resist the invasion of the cold winter. Life is very difficult. Despite the bumper harvest this year, the people in Yuyang county and its surrounding areas are not short of food. But it''s freezing, and the people can''t stop the chill. This is the most troublesome thing. "


    Xu Shu thought hard and had no solution.


    Zhang Xiu also frowned.


    It''s not easy to do.


    If the people are short of food, he can set up porridge awning to relieve them.


    It''s freezing. It can''t be solved.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of footwork came from outside the study.


    But Gan Ning and Chen Dao came together. After they saluted Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning said, "Lord, this year''s weather is too cold. It''s just unprecedented."


    "Cold attack, many soldiers in the army, are long frostbite."


    "If it''s just frostbite, it can be overcome. The key is that soldiers can''t sleep warm at night. Up to now, many soldiers in the army have been infected with the cold. "


    "The general implored the Lord to mobilize doctors to treat the sick soldiers."


    Ganning said: "once the disease of wind cold spread, large-scale infection of soldiers, the consequences are unimaginable."


    Zhang Xiu''s face is more dignified.


    There are countless soldiers gathered in the army, once the flu, the consequences will be extremely serious. This era is different from later generations. Later generations have developed medicine, and there are countless drugs to suppress it.


    However, this era is very difficult.


    Once a large-scale infection, continuous infection, the consequences are unimaginable.

 Chapter 103

    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and asked, "can''t doctors in the army, or even doctors in the city, diagnose and treat the disease of wind cold?"


    Gan Ning shook his head and said, "my Lord, the doctors in the army have already made a diagnosis and even found the doctors in the city. However, after the soldiers were given the prescriptions one by one, they did not get any better. That''s why the last general came to ask the Lord to come forward and mobilize doctors to treat the soldiers. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    This is a time of trouble.


    Rarely idle down, did not expect to first encounter the risk of freezing, and then encounter the cold flu.


    Whatever it is, it has to be controlled.


    Otherwise, it will lead to disaster.


    Zhang Xiu thought, suddenly thought of a person. He looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, do you know Nanyang Zhangji?"


    Zhang Ji, Zhongjing, was born in Nanyang.


    In the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, there were two most famous doctors, Huatuo in Yanzhou in the north, Zhangji in Jingzhou in the south, one in the South and one in the north.


    Hua Tuo is especially good at surgery. He is also good at gynecology and acupuncture. In the aspect of surgery, Hua Tuo is worthy of the leadership.


    Zhang Zhongjing is good at internal medicine, especially typhoid and miscellaneous diseases.


    In the history of medicine, Zhang Zhongjing''s status was far higher than that of Hua Tuo, and he was respected as a medical saint by later generations.


    The reason is that when he was practicing medicine to save the world, he extensively collected medical prescriptions and compiled the treatise on Febrile and miscellaneous diseases, which systematically expounded the treatment of febrile and miscellaneous diseases and was highly praised by medical experts of all ages.


    If you can ask Zhang Zhongjing to do it, it should not be difficult to control the cold in the army.


    Xu Shu''s eyes brightened and praised: "Lord, Zhang Ji of Nanyang County knows his humble position. He is from nieyang County, just to the northwest of Yuyang County, not far from Yuyang county. Some time ago, I got news from Zhang Ji that Zhang Ji had a free clinic in nieyang county and did not receive any money to treat the common people. I think Zhang Ji is still in nieyang county. "


    "Well, I''ll go to nieyang County myself and ask him to treat the soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu spirit, said: "cold disease can ask Zhang machine hand, this thing should not be difficult. However, it''s a big problem to keep the people warm because it''s freezing. "


    Xu Shu sighed and said, "there''s nothing I can do about my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what we can do now is to allocate clothes first and distribute them to the people to keep them warm. In addition, he sent a letter to the teacher and Mr. Huang, asking them to mobilize their strength to buy some clothes and transport them to Yuyang county through the channel of Huang''s shop. For the time being, we''ll follow this strategy, and then we''ll work out a way slowly. "


    "I''ll do it


    Xu Shu nodded.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Gan Ning. She said in a deep voice: "xingba, your task is the most arduous. You can''t relax. All soldiers infected with wind cold disease are not allowed to live with the rest of the soldiers. They are all separated from each other, have meals alone, and are isolated from the soldiers. "


    "If there are any more patients, they will be placed in isolation."


    "In addition, if the clothes and quilt covers used by soldiers who are infected with wind cold are to be reused, they must be boiled in boiling water to ensure safety..."


    Where Zhang Xiu wants to go, she talks about a big call.


    Gan Ning scratched his head and said, "at the end, I''ll be a rough guy. I can''t remember your arrangement. You see, can you write it down? After we go back, we will implement the regulations one by one to avoid mistakes. "


    "Good!" said Zhang Xiu


    He doesn''t criticize Gan Ning either. After all, Gan Ning is a martial arts man, and now Gan Ning can''t remember to take the initiative to bring it up. It''s also a good thing. It''s better than chasing the responsibility after something happens.


    He took a roll of bamboo slips, and quickly wrote down the notes one by one.


    After half a sound, pass the bamboo slip to Gan Ning.


    "Thank you, Lord."


    Ganning took it in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.


    No matter whether Zhang Xiu''s method is useful or not, we have to have a try. In case we can suppress the disease.


    After making arrangements, Zhang Xiu left Xu Shu and Pang Tong in Yuyang County, and then took Chen to leave Yuyang county and head for nieyang County in the northwest. Now it''s freezing, the wind is blowing, and the ground is frozen again. It''s impossible to ride a horse quickly, so you can only take a carriage.


    The carriage galloped all the way to the northwest.


    Originally, it only took about one day to reach nieyang county.


    This time, it took four days.


    Because of the heavy snow blocking on the way, the speed of driving is very slow, so it is impossible to speed up. Even if the delay, Zhang Xiu''s heart worried about the disease, but there is no way.


    When he arrived in Zhangjia, it was evening, and the gate was about to close. Zhang Xiu stepped on the spot and entered the city. Looking for passers-by to ask Zhang Zhongjing''s house, he went straight to Zhangjia.


    The carriage arrived at Zhang''s house, and it was dark.


    Cold wind, wind blowing in the face, like a knife cut in general, very uncomfortable.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao braved the wind and snow, got out of the carriage and went to the door. Chen Dao came forward and knocked on the door ring.After a while, the door opened.


    The concierge of the house leaned out his head and said, "who are you looking for?"


    Chen Dao handed over the post and solemnly said, "my lord Zhang Xiu has come to visit Doctor Zhang. Please let me know."


    "Are you Zhang Xiu?"


    The porter was surprised.


    The news of Zhang Xiu''s killing Xiongnu had already spread in nieyang county.


    He who can kill the Huns is a great man. Zhang Xiu is rumored to have two horns, a dragon scale body, strong arms like a dragon, and a tall and strong body. But in front of her, Zhang Xiu is quite handsome.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I am Zhang Xiu."


    The porter still didn''t believe it. He confirmed again, "are you Zhang Xiu who killed the Huns?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answers again.


    "You wait. I''ll report it right away."


    After the porter confirmed Zhang Xiu''s identity, he looked more respectful. He turned around and flew to the mansion.


    Chen Dao sighed: "the news that the Lord killed the Huns spread all over Nanyang County and even all over the world. Now where you go, as long as a famous name, it is enough to make people respect


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s not so serious. It''s a matter of duty to kill the Huns, and it''s not a big deal."


    After a while, there was a sound of footstep in the door.


    Then the door opened completely.


    When the gate opened, an old man in his late fifties, dressed in coarse linen and a long crown, bowed 90 degrees with his hands closed, and said, "old Zhang Ji, I don''t know if general Zhang is here. If you are missing, please welcome general Zhang Haihan."


    Zhang Xiu replied, "Mr. Zhong Jing is very kind. You can do this for me."


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "it''s admirable that general Zhang killed the Huns with his own strength. General Zhang can afford it. General Zhang, please come inside


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and followed Zhang Zhongjing into the hall.

 Chapter 104

    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Zhongjing is in the main position, and Zhang Xiu is in the first position on the left.


    Chen Dao, who was accompanied by Zhang Xiu, sat down behind her.


    Although Zhang Zhongjing was an old man, he was also enthusiastic and said: "when the Huns went down to the south, when I got the news, I wanted to stand up and resist the Huns."


    "It''s a pity that an old man can''t fight because he doesn''t know how to fight. Later, general Zhang led his troops to fight against the Huns. I was even more excited and expected general Zhang to win. "


    "In the twinkling of an eye, all the Huns were annihilated."


    "It''s a great joy."


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "General Zhang defeated the Xiongnu people and killed huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu, benefiting countless people in Nanyang County and enabling countless people to live in peace and make contributions to the country."


    Previously, Zhang Zhongjing had already praised it.


    Now, he praised again.


    Zhang Xiu rubbed her hands, warmed her cold hands and said with a smile, "I''m very ashamed of Zhong Jing Gong''s praise. Nanyang County is under my jurisdiction. The people are suffering. I should stand up. It''s not surprising that it''s a trivial matter. "


    "It''s no small matter," Zhang said


    When talking, he saw Zhang Xiu rubbing his hands for warmth, and immediately said, "come on!"


    A valet entered quickly.


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "bring two braziers in and get close to General Zhang to keep him warm."


    "Here it is


    The servant was ordered to leave immediately.


    Zhang Xiu was no longer polite and said, "Mr. Zhong Jing, I came to nieyang county to ask for his help."


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "General Zhang, it''s OK to say that as long as it''s within my power, I will never refuse."


    Zhang Xiu said quickly: "this year''s Nanyang County is much colder than in previous years. Even the river is frozen, and the chill can be seen. The cold weather has caused countless people in Yuyang county to be infected with wind chill. "


    "The common people live together, but they can be suppressed even if they don''t get together."


    "The trouble is that the soldiers in our army are together all day, and a large number of patients with wind chill begin to appear. Yuyang County doctors after diagnosis and treatment, can not control the disease, can not cure the disease, leading to more and more people sick


    "I was worried that it would become an epidemic disease, so I came to nieyang county to ask Zhong Jinggong to treat the soldiers'' disease."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of expectations.


    This time, it''s up to Zhang Zhongjing.


    Zhang Zhongjing stroked his beard with a smile and said confidently, "I am duty bound to invite General Zhang. How about going to Yuyang county with general Zhang tomorrow morning? "


    "Thank you, Mr. Zhong Jing."


    The big stone in Zhang Xiu''s heart fell to the ground immediately.


    At this time, the servant of your family came in with a fire basin. A brazier was placed in the middle of the hall to dispel the chill. Another brazier is placed close to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at the burning charcoal in the brazier. In an instant, he opened his eyes and looked surprised.


    The burning in the brazier is not charcoal, but coal.


    Zhang Xiu knows something about coal. The coal used in this brazier is not ordinary coal, but anthracite with the best quality and the highest carbon content. Its color is blacker, and there is no smoke when burning.


    If the anthracite is burned out, no toxic gas will be produced.


    In the brazier, when the heat is enough, anthracite is enough to burn completely, without pungent smell and producing toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, which can be heated directly.


    When Zhang Xiu thought, a voice came from her ear. It was Zhang Zhongjing calling his name. He suddenly returned to his mind, and then said, "please forgive me, Mr. Zhong Jing. I just lost my mind."


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "General Zhang has been staring at the black stone. Is there any doubt?"


    Coal, also known as Blackstone by the ancients.


    This is a black stone.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Zhongjing, where was the black carbon found?"


    With a smile, Zhang Zhongjing said, "the black charcoal burning in the brazier is a gift given by a patient to thank me after his recovery."


    "Ordinary black stone burns with a pungent smell, which is poisonous. But it''s burning, smokeless, tasteless, and completely non-toxic. It can be used for heating. "


    "When I received Blackstone, I also had doubts in my heart. But the patient I sent me tried the method by example. I believed what he said and began to use black carbon."


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "I still have hundreds of Jin of such black charcoal here. If general Zhang needs it, he can give some to General Zhang. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "where is Zhong Jinggong''s patient? Where is the black stone mined?"


    Zhang Zhongjing replied, "he is from Luyang county. He picked up all these black stones on Mount Lu."


    Zhang Xiu''s heart moved.


    Luyang county is located in Henan Province.


    Lushan is a big mountain in Luyang county. Later generations took Lushan County as their name.This is where coal is produced.


    Now Luyang county is the northernmost area of Nanyang County. Zhang Xiu thought that she could pick up so much anthracite, which proved that Lushan is an open-pit coal mine and can mine anthracite in large quantities.


    With anthracite, people can get warm.


    Compared with the expensive charcoal, such anthracite is enough to relieve the affected people.


    Zhang Xiu stood up, folded her hands, saluted Zhang Zhongjing, and solemnly said, "Mr. Zhongjing, I thank you instead of thousands of surnames in Nanyang County."


    Seeing this, Zhang Zhongjing quickly got up and asked, "General Zhang, what are you doing? You don''t have to."


    Zhang Xiu explained: "Zhong Jinggong also knows that this year''s cold winter is extraordinary. Although the people have food, the weather is too cold for many people. "


    "Some old people, in particular, can''t bear the cold winter."


    "Besides, many people from poor families are even more sad. It''s too expensive for them to use charcoal for heating. But the black carbon mined in Luyang county can be mined in the open pit, and the price is cheap enough to ease the crisis of the people. "


    "Next, I will send people to Luyang county to mine large quantities of black carbon."


    "And then, warm the people."


    "With this large amount of black carbon, people will certainly be able to survive this winter. I can''t do anything about it without Zhong Jinggong''s reminding. Now, finally, there is a solution. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "now I have two difficulties. The first is that the soldiers are ill. The second is that the weather is cold and the people are hard. Now these two problems have been solved by Zhong Jinggong. It''s fair to thank Zhongjing. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "this is not my credit. It''s just that I happen to know it."


    Immediately, Zhang Zhongjing changed the subject and asked about the situation of soldiers infected with wind cold in Yuyang county. Zhang Xiu also said the countermeasures one by one, including isolation and other arrangements.


    After hearing this, Zhang Zhongjing was greatly impressed.


    They talked late into the night before they went to rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, after breakfast, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Zhongjing left in a hurry by carriage. From nieyang county to Yuyang County, we rushed all the way. It took less time than when we came here. We ran for nearly three days.


    Back in Yuyang County, Zhang Zhongjing went directly to the barracks without delay.


    When he entered the camp, he saw that everything was arranged in good order. When he saw the isolated soldiers, his face was also relaxed. He said with emotion: "thanks to General Zhang, he isolated the patients. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Duke Zhongjing has been praised falsely. Please give him a hand to treat this disease."


    "It''s not difficult," Zhang said


    Immediately, he carefully diagnosed and treated several soldiers'' diseases, and found that the soldiers'' diseases were indeed the same. He took out his medicine box, took out his pen, ink and bamboo slips, wrote down the prescription, and handed it to Zhang Xiu, saying: "General Zhang, the soldiers'' diseases are the same. Take medicine according to the prescription and fry it for the soldiers. Within three days, it will be effective. "


    "Thank you, Mr. Zhang!"


    Zhang Xiu was also relieved.


    A miracle doctor is a miracle doctor.


    When many doctors are at a loss, Zhang Zhongjing is able to prescribe the right medicine. This is Zhang Zhongjing''s ability.


    He called Ganning and asked Ganning to arrange it.


    After dealing with the affairs in the army, Zhang Xiu takes Zhang Zhongjing and goes straight back to the county government to prepare for Zhang Zhongjing.

 Chapter 105

    County Hall.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for the cooks to prepare wine and meat, and held a banquet to celebrate Zhang Zhongjing''s solution to the soldiers'' crisis.


    This is also a way to wash the dust.


    Push the cup to hand over the cup on the table. It''s very lively.


    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    Zhang Xiu put down the wine bottle in her hand, and her eyes fell on Zhang Zhongjing. She said with a straight face: "Zhong Jing''s medical skill is to communicate with God, and he has the ability to bring the dead back to life. Now Yuyang county is short of people like zhongjinggong. I don''t know if zhongjinggong is willing to stay in Yuyang county and help me. "


    Zhang Zhongjing''s expression was indifferent, and he said with a light smile: "I''m standing at 30, I''m not confused at 40, and I know my destiny at 50. I''m nearly 50 years old. At this age, I have long been indifferent to glory and wealth. I hope I can do something practical and meaningful. "


    After a pause, Zhang Zhongjing continued: "besides, I''m just an ordinary doctor. It can also cure the disease and save the people. There are very few people who can help General Zhang. "


    Zhang Zhongjing didn''t care much about his official career. He preferred medical skills.


    Because medicine doesn''t cheat.


    He is sincere in medical skills, dedicated to curing the disease and saving people, then he can get a real return and see the effect after saving people.


    Being an official, but not necessarily.


    He didn''t like the official career and the intrigue in the officialdom.


    Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry, but said: "I ask Mr. Zhong Jing to stay. I don''t want him to go to officialdom for an official career. I hope that Zhongjing''s stay in Yuyang county will benefit the people with his medical skills and help them get rid of the disease. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "since it benefits the common people, it''s the same with each other. Even if I don''t stay in Yuyang County, I''m also trying to save people. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Mr. Zhong Jing has traveled all over the world, treating countless people''s diseases, and even conducting free medical treatment. It can be said that he is a kind-hearted doctor. But there are few people who can get Zhongjing''s treatment after all. "


    "It''s a minority, after all."


    "If Mr. Zhong Jinggong stays in Yuyang County, I can recruit more people, let him train them, let them study in different categories, or study surgery, or study wind cold, or learn to treat traumatic injuries."


    "It''s better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish!"


    "After all, you are the only one who can communicate with the gods."


    "Only by imparting exquisite medical skills to more people can we benefit more people. Even, I can set up a large hospital by myself, so that countless doctors can come together and accept the arrangement of Zhong Jinggong. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "a person''s strength, after all, a drop in the bucket."


    "I want to write a comprehensive treatise on Houzhong''s disease, but I don''t want to know it only when I see it in a month."


    "According to Zhong Jinggong''s idea, I mobilized many doctors and let them work together to improve Zhong Jinggong''s treatise on Febrile and miscellaneous diseases. Wouldn''t it be faster and more perfect?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "in Yuyang County, Zhong Jinggong is not an official, but to use his medical skills and vision to benefit more people. That''s what I want Mr. Zhong to stay for. "


    Zhang Zhongjing was silent when he heard the speech.


    He admired Zhang Xiu.


    He had a good impression on Zhang Xiu when he heard that Zhang Xiu had issued an order to kill the Huns and killed the Huns.


    He believed Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s words are believed by Zhang Zhongjing. If we really follow Zhang Xiu''s idea, it will be the best. It can save a lot of time and improve the medical prescription.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Zhongjing solemnly asked, "General Zhang, it''s not a small matter to establish a medical center. If we want to recruit land, we need to mobilize countless doctors and spend countless material and financial resources. Have you really considered it clearly? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ve thought it over, because it''s worth it. In Yuyang County, as long as it''s the place that Mr. Zhong Jinggong likes, I''ll directly assign it to you as the site of the hospital. I''ll allocate the money I need. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "I believe in general!"


    With that, he stood up, arched his hand and said, "old Zhang Ji, I''d like to meet you."


    Zhang Xiu got up and saluted back, saying: "with the participation of Zhong Jinggong, I believe that the children of doctors in Yuyang county and Nanyang County will gather countless. Nowadays, the status of doctors is not prominent, but in this world, there are few children of doctors. Under my command, I hope to see a great rise in doctors. "


    In Zhang Zhongjing''s eyes, there was also a glimmer of expectation.


    It would be great if doctors could prosper. After all, he is also a child of doctors.


    Zhang Xiu decided Zhang Zhongjing''s business, and her interest was even higher. The banquet continued, and it was even more lively. After the banquet, Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to arrange Zhang Zhongjing to rest in the backyard of the county government.


    Then, Zhang Xiu told Xu Shu to find a mansion for Zhang Zhongjian as the residence of Zhang Zhongjing. After arranging things, Zhang Xiu went back to her study, took out a piece of rice paper, dipped her pen in ink, and wrote about the architecture involved in later hospitals.


    He hopes to build a more reasonable hospital.Each department was divided into different areas, such as hospitals and hospitals.


    It took nearly two hours to delete and change.


    After all, many are not suitable for this era.


    If it is suitable, Zhang Xiu will write it down and prepare for Zhang Zhongjing''s subsequent arrangement.


    After everything was written down, Zhang Xiu checked it again, got up and stretched out, then went straight to the courtyard where Zhang Zhongjing lived. When he arrived in the yard, Zhang Zhongjing was awake.


    When Zhang Xiu handed the paper to Zhang Zhongjing, Zhang Zhongjing found that the paper was extraordinary and asked, "Lord, what kind of paper is this?"


    "Xuan paper!"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "this is just developed. Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family in Jingzhou are stepping up production. Soon, there will be large-scale trafficking. The bamboo slips in the world will gradually exit, and only rice paper will be left in the end. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said with emotion: "this Xuan paper is really not simple. It feels comfortable and the handwriting on the paper is not soggy."


    He read it quickly.


    The more he went down, the more frightened he was, and the more he admired Zhang Xiu''s insight.


    Originally thought that Zhang Xiu solicited him, valued him, but certainly did not know much about medical skills. Now when he saw the statement given by Zhang Xiu, he knew that Zhang Xiu really knew medical skills and wanted to establish a hospital and prosper doctors.


    At this moment, Zhang Zhongjing was completely at ease.


    The more Zhang Zhongjing looked down, the clearer his goal was and the clearer he knew what to do next.


    I understand everything.


    After watching it, Zhang Zhongjing arched his hand and said, "the Lord''s arrangement is really ingenious. In accordance with the framework set up by the Lord, I will set up an unprecedented hospital to benefit more people. At the same time, more doctors will be trained. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "hard work, Zhong Jinggong."


    "No hard work, no hard work!"


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "it''s all in accordance with the Lord''s arrangement. It won''t be too difficult. Please rest assured that I will finish it as soon as possible. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "if you have any difficulties, go directly to Xu Shu. He will do his best to help you. If you encounter something that can''t be solved, you can also come to me directly. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "Lord Xie."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t delay much either. She asked Zhang Zhongjing to do it, and then turned to leave. When he returned to his study, he sent for Xu Shu and Pang Tong.

 Chapter 106

    Pang Tong and Xu Shu enter the study and bow their hands to Zhang Xiu.


    They sat down with a relaxed look.


    Zhang Zhongjing is responsible for the disease in the army. There''s no need to worry about the spread of the disease. Now it''s just a matter of freezing weather.


    It''s not too urgent.


    After all, it''s not the coldest yet.


    Pointing to the black charcoal burning in the brazier in the middle of the study, Zhang Xiu said, "look, this is a gift from Zhong Jing Gong. "It is also called" black stone "for its long heat release


    Xu Shu raised his eyebrows and said, "I''ve heard people say that if you don''t pay attention to the heating of black charcoal, you will die of poisoning. Although it can keep warm, it''s not the right way


    Zhang Xiu explained: "if there is smoke and pungent smell when burning, it is really toxic. But black stone burns, there is no smoke, there is no pungent taste, it is non-toxic


    When Xu Shu heard the string song, he knew his elegance and said, "does the Lord want to use this thing to keep warm and let the people live through the cold winter?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Xu Shu asked, "where is it?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "according to Zhang Zhongjing, there is such black charcoal on Lushan Mountain in Luyang county."


    "All the black charcoal exists in the open air."


    "As long as the location of the black carbon is found, people are arranged to excavate it, and then it is shipped back, then it can be sold. It was a very difficult year because of the cold winter and heavy snow. We will send our soldiers north to take over Lushan, and then we can recruit people to exploit it. "


    "On the one hand, recruiting people for mining can make people earn some money to support their families."


    "On the other hand, if we sell the black carbon in large quantities, we can earn a lot of money and lay the foundation for our next expedition against foreign enemies."


    "There is enough money to fight. If you don''t have money in your pocket, you can''t afford to pay for your troops, you can''t keep up with your food, and you can''t win a battle if your soldiers are listless. "


    "It''s going to be done at once."


    Zhang Xiu said, "this is my idea. What''s your opinion about it?"


    After thinking about it, Xu Shu replied, "my Lord''s elaboration is very detailed and well considered. If we can excavate the black carbon in the open air, that''s OK. After all, the cost is low, and it can supply a large number of people. In addition, we can also sell Blackstone to more places through Pang''s, Huang''s and Kuai''s channels. "


    Pang Tong said: "this is a good thing, once it is done. The Lord''s influence will go up to a new level. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m going to let Huang Zhao go, let him take charge of mining, transport back the black carbon from Lushan, and then sell it in a unified way. But the Pang family, the Kuai family and the Huang family do have to come for the specific operation. We don''t have such a huge network. "


    Pang Tong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Xu Shu said: "I also agree with humble position."


    See two people have no opinion, Zhang Xiu immediately sent Huang Zhao called, arranged for Huang Zhao to deal with things.


    After hearing this, Huang Zhao was very excited.


    It''s good to have something to do.


    At the earliest time, he was at the forefront of Zhang Xiu''s command, because he was the most trusted person of Zhang Xiu. With the joining of Gan Ning and Chen Dao, he could not compare with them in martial arts, wisdom, and the ability of unifying troops.


    Gradually, he began to be marginalized.


    It''s not Zhang Xiu''s intention to marginalize him, it''s lack of ability, no wonder others.


    Although Huang Zhao had to be important, he was always lost. Now I got Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, and I was excited and assured: "Lord, don''t worry, I promise to finish the task."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will give you a thousand soldiers to do a good job."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhao got the order, got up and left.


    Zhang Xiu and Xu Shu, Pang Tong discussed other things of Nanyang County, just let them leave.


    Time goes by day.


    Three days is fleeting.


    If it is true, as Zhang Zhongjing expected, the wind cold disease of soldiers in the army is completely controlled, and there are no more soldiers infected. Even the sick people in the city have almost recovered after Zhang Zhongjing''s treatment in recent days.


    Zhang Zhongjing is very busy now.


    He was not only busy with curing the disease and saving the people, but also had to travel through the streets of the city to find a suitable place to build the hospital. In addition, he had to use his own relationship to invite some people with medical attainments to help him.


    After all, Zhang Zhongjing is a lonely man.


    To build a large hospital, there must be more doctors.


    When Zhang Zhongjing is busy, Zhang Xiu is at leisure. Apart from being in the county government office when dealing with government affairs, he spent most of his time in Huang''s shop with Huang Yueying.


    They are very close to each other.


    Even Huang Chengyan acquiesced that Zhang Xiu was the son-in-law of the Huang family, and the two had a lot less obstacles.


    On this day, while Zhang Xiu was chatting with Huang Yueying, a soldier came quickly and reported: "general, people from the imperial court came to the county government and said that they had come to call.""I''m going now!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded to answer, looking at the side of Huang Yueying, said: "Yueying, you are busy, I''ll go back to have a look."


    Huang Yueying worried: "is the imperial court going to deal with you?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s impossible. The most possible thing is that the news that I killed the Huns was sent to Yuyang county. Don''t worry. I''ll see when I go back. "


    "Be careful," said Huang


    Zhang Xiu got up and left. After leaving Huang''s house, she rode straight to the county government.


    When he returned to the county government, he met the servant who had come to summon him.


    When the Lord arrived, the servant did not delay. He spread out the imperial edict and read out the emperor''s edict. There were more than a thousand words in the words, but the main idea of the imperial edict was that Zhang Xiu had made great contributions to the killing of the Huns and was promoted to be the prefect of Nanyang County.


    Promotion!


    This is the appointment of the court.


    Before that, when Pang Tong was in obedience, he had asked for merit.


    Now, finally, there are results.


    After thanking her, Zhang Xiu asked someone to reward her for some money and sent her away.


    County government, in the hall.


    Take your seat.


    Pang Tong thought in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Lord, although the imperial edict issued by the imperial court is the order of the emperor, it is actually the order of Cao Cao."


    "Cao Cao, as a herdsman in Yanzhou, is adjacent to Jingzhou. Please be clear about the situation of Nanyang County and know about your gratitude and resentment with Liu Biao."


    "It''s more than enough to kill the Huns by the Lord, not to mention being the prefect of a county, even the generals of four towns at the level of Zhennan general."


    "But Cao Cao didn''t appoint you as a military officer. Instead, he appointed you as the prefect of Nanyang County. Although he praised you, there was also Cao Cao''s ulterior motives."


    Pang Tong put forward his conclusion.


    Zhang Xiu was also thinking about Cao Cao''s intention and asked, "what''s the intention?"


    Pang Tong said, "kill with a knife!"


    "The reason why Cao Cao did this was to use Liu Biao''s hand to deal with the Lord. In other words, with the help of the Lord, we can deal with Liu Biao, either way. "


    "In today''s world, all localities are autonomous."


    "The imperial court has no control over all places."


    "Under such circumstances, Cao Cao knew that Nanyang County was under Liu Biao''s rule, and he could not control Nanyang County, but he appointed his Lord as the prefect of Nanyang County. It was clear that he was driving away tigers and swallowing wolves, killing people with a knife, and it was intentional."


    "Praising the Lord not only reflects the magnanimity of Cao Cao, but also reflects the esteem of the imperial court, achieving the purpose of Cao Cao."


    Pang Tong said: "Cao Cao is a hero."


    Xu Shu nodded: "generally speaking, if you can get the appointment of the imperial court, you will take the initiative and have great righteousness. For the Lord, this is extremely advantageous. According to the rules, the official position of the prefect should have been appointed by the imperial court. So even if Liu Biao was angry, there was no way. Even if Liu Biao is offended, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. "


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, self-confident way: "offend Liu Biao thing, is not one or two."


    Pang Tong said, "it''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "after killing Yi Ji, Liu Biao''s face was gone; in Wan County, we killed Wei Yan, Liu Biao''s face was ruined, but he didn''t show anything. Now I take over the post of the prefect of Nanyang County. As long as I don''t attack Xinye, Liu Biao won''t do anything. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    When Xu Shu heard the speech, he also nodded his head.

 Chapter 107

    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "now I am appointed by the imperial court as the prefect of Nanyang County, and I am the benefactor. All my subordinates should be promoted. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public. "


    Xu Shu and Pang Tong nodded.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, although they have their own things to do, they have no clear official positions. After all, before that, Zhang Xiu had no official position appointed by the imperial court.


    The position of Zhang Xiu was arranged by Zhang Ji.


    It lacks authority.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu soon had an idea. He immediately arranged for the soldiers to inform Gan Ning and Chen to come to the county yamen for discussion.


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, there are Xu Shu and Pang Tong in the text, Chen Dao and Gan Ning in the martial arts.


    This is the main talent.


    Although there are still some other talents, they are not particularly outstanding and there is no need to call for appointment alone.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Xu Shu and said, "Xu Shu!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Xu Shu stood up and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    He was the first counselor to follow Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang, he subordinated to Zhang Xiu and dealt with the government affairs for Zhang Xiu, stabilizing the rear, so that Zhang Xiu could go out to fight safely.


    His contribution should be in the first place.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Yuanzhi, I have appointed you as the Prime Minister of Nanyang County to assist me in handling the affairs of Nanyang County."


    "Thank you


    Xu Shu gave thanks.


    Zhang Xiu is the prefect of Nanyang County and a real leader.


    Juncheng is second only to Taishou.


    In the case of Zhang Xiu''s devolution of power to him, the administrative arrangements of Nanyang County had to follow Xu Shu''s advice.


    In other words, Xu Shu is the second in command.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Xu Shu to sit down. Her eyes turned and fell on Pang Tong, saying, "Pang Tong!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Pang Tong stood up and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shiyuan, you are good at planning. You can make strategies. You are more capable of strategizing. You have the ability to manage the world. I''ll take you as my military adviser and be responsible for making decisions. "


    "Thank you


    Pang Tong also immediately said thanks.


    Xu Shu was the second in command, and his main responsibility was in government affairs.


    Pang Tong was a military strategist, and his focus was mainly on marching and fighting. Although Pang Tong did not lead the soldiers directly, as a military adviser and confidant of Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong was enough to mobilize the soldiers in the army.


    Zhang Xiu motioned Pang Tong to sit down, then looked at Gan Ning and said, "Gan Ning listens to the order."


    "The end will be here!"


    Gan Ning stands up and answers with a fist.


    At this moment, Gan Ning was also excited. He was once in Yizhou. Although he worked for Liu Yan, he was not reused. When Liu Zhang was in power, he was even more marginalized.


    Only by following Zhang Xiu can he be reused.


    Although he was born as a Jinfan thief, he was not discriminated against from all along.


    Not only that, but also highly valued.


    This is what Ganning values most.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she said, "I order you to be the Duwei, responsible for Nanyang military."


    "Thank you


    Ganning immediately thanks.


    The post of Duwei is the assistant official of Taishou, whose duty is similar to that of county Wei. The county captain is the third leader of a county, and the Duwei is equivalent to the third leader of a county in the administrative system.


    After all, Ganning is in charge of the army.


    Gan Ning is very satisfied with this official position.


    After arranging Gan Ning''s official position, Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Dao and ordered, "Chen Dao, listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Chen Dao immediately got up and clasped his fist.


    He is a new member of Zhang Xiu''s family, and his qualifications are quite different. However, under the command of Zhang Xiu, Chen Dao was also deeply trusted and was the main general in the army.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I appoint you as General Li to command all the cavalry in the army. The cavalry under your command is a separate organization, not under the jurisdiction of anyone, but under my jurisdiction. It''s named Langya camp. "


    "Thank you


    Chen Dao was overjoyed.


    He didn''t give much hope to his official position. After all, he made little contribution. But I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu let him set up an army alone, and he was still a cavalry.


    Cavalry is the most powerful blade and the blade in the army.


    Chen Dao looked solemn and said: "please don''t worry, my Lord. I will live up to your expectations. The wolf tooth camp will be like the sharp teeth of the wolf, biting everything, tearing everything, invincible. "


    "I''ll see."


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    He believed that with Chen Dao''s ability, it would not be difficult to train an elite cavalry.


    After arranging the official positions of the four, Zhang Xiu continued: "the official positions of the four of you are decided by me directly. But there are still other assistant officials and soldiers in the army who should be promoted. As soon as it should be arranged, you will draw up a draft and give it to me after discussion. After I have reviewed it, I will arrange it. "


    "Here it isAll of us should go down together.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu asked everyone to step down.


    He left the county government and went to Huang''s house.


    Arriving at Huang''s home, Huang Yueying rushed up, with a worried look on her face. She was afraid that Zhang Xiu might encounter some difficulties. She quickly asked, "general, what''s the matter with the arrangement of the imperial court?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the imperial court ordered me to be the prefect of Nanyang County."


    "Ah


    When Huang Yueying heard this, she could not help but be surprised, with a happy look on her face.


    It''s unexpected.


    She has been worried that the imperial court will deal with Zhang Xiu, but she didn''t expect that the news was good. In particular, Zhang Xiu had previously made an agreement that after she became the prefect of a county, she would go to the Huang family to propose marriage and prepare to marry her.


    At the moment, Huang Yueying''s cheeks were red, and a blush appeared.


    Zhang Xiu saw Huang Yueying''s face change, knew that Huang Yueying thought of the previous agreement, he opened the door to the mountain and said: "the imperial court issued an imperial edict to appoint me as the governor of Nanyang, so I am ready to propose marriage to Huang Gong and marry you home."


    "Who said to marry you?"


    Huang Yueying is so shy that she turns around and flies to the back yard.


    Zhang Xiu chuckles and follows in.


    He and Huang Yueying have been together for such a long time to understand Huang Yueying''s mind. He followed him to the backyard. After a word of provocation, Huang Yueying was even more shy and showed endless amorous feelings.


    After Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying had a soft talk with Wu Nong, they chatted and talked about the future.


    After dinner, Zhang Xiu left.


    As soon as he got back to the county government, Xu Shu came. He took a seat in his study and said, "my Lord is now the prefect of Nanyang County. He still lives in the county government. Before that, there was no magistrate of Yuyang County, so the Lord lived here all the time. Nowadays, the magistrate of Yuyang county also has to arrange officials to act as the magistrate. He thought about it, and chose a new residence for the Lord as his residence. "


    Zhang xiudao: "you arrange it."


    Zhang Xiu has no opinion about Xu Shu''s proposal. After all, he is too conservative to live in the county government.


    Xu Shu continued: "in addition, there is one more thing."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Xu Shu replied, "Nanyang County is governed by Wan County, not Yuyang county. The Lord is now the prefect of Nanyang County. Is he going to stay in Yuyang county or move back to Wan county? "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "Yuyang county is adjacent to Xinye, which is good for us to go south. At present, we are still staying in Yuyang County for the convenience of action. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Yuanzhi, I promised Yueying that I would become a prefect and marry her. Huang Gong also agreed to this matter. Now I''m the prefect of Nanyang County, so I''m going to Xiangyang. What do you think of it? "


    Xu Shu frowned and said, "my Lord has just been the prefect of Nanyang County, which will definitely upset Liu Biao. Before that, I had all kinds of hatred with Liu Biao. I''m afraid it would be dangerous to go to Xiangyang at this time. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "it''s because I foresee the risk that I ask you how to do it well. We should not only stabilize Liu Biao, but also go to Xiangyang to propose marriage. "


    Xu Shu said: "Lord, let me think about it."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and sat quietly without disturbing Xu Shu''s thoughts.

 Chapter 108

    After a long time, Xu Shu said, "I''ve thought about it carefully. In fact, it''s not very dangerous for my Lord to go south to Xiangyang. To go to Xiangyang, you only need to do one thing. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Xu Shu replied: "the chief public security platoon released a rumor in Xiangyang that the imperial court appointed the Lord as the governor of Nanyang. After being called, the Lord is going to Xiangyang in person to report his work to Liu Biao. "


    "On duty?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and thought carefully.


    A moment later, a smile appeared on his face and he exclaimed, "brilliant, Yuanzhi''s strategy is really brilliant."


    "It''s a seven inch snake fight!"


    "Liu Biao has always been extremely concerned about reputation."


    "He boasted that he was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. Even though he was dissatisfied with the appointment of me by the imperial court as the prefect of Nanyang County, he could not show it openly or deal with me openly."


    "I just killed two thousand Huns. I''m a hero in Jingzhou."


    "And I went down to the South under the banner of reporting my work. This is to respect Liu Biao. Under this premise, if Liu Biao wants to kill me, he will lose the reputation he has accumulated for many years. "


    Zhang Xiu looked determined and said, "if you were Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Lu Bu, you might kill me at all costs. But this matter falls on Liu Biao. Considering his reputation, he can''t kill me. "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    After a pause, Xu Shu said: "in addition, there is another thing to do, that is to garrison troops at the border of Xinye county. When the LORD went south to Xiangyang and stationed troops at the border, he could also frighten Liu Biao. One is propaganda and the other is deterrence by force


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He agreed with Xu Shu''s suggestion.


    Xu Shu continued: "however, the Lord can''t take it lightly. Liu Biao takes his own reputation into consideration. He can''t deal with the Lord on the surface. He may also buy a murderer to deal with the Lord on the surface. "


    "Before that, the power of the LORD was not strong, and Liu Biao could contain him, so he hoped that the LORD would be the barrier to the north of Jingzhou."


    "In this short period of time, the Lord has stabilized the situation in Nanyang, and his strength has become stronger and stronger. In order to contain the Lord, Liu Biao may not be indifferent, which needs to be prevented. "


    Xu Shu also reminds Zhang Xiu.


    Even if it is safe, we should not take it lightly. We should be more cautious.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll be careful. You don''t have to worry."


    Xu Shu finally said, "when will my lord leave?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "this matter should be early rather than late, but also to deal with the things in hand, in order to go south to Xiangyang."


    After a little thought, Zhang Xiu said: "seven days later, I went south to Xiangyang to make a decision about getting married. Seven days is enough time to finalize the official positions of officials of different sizes. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    When Xu Shu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he didn''t stop him.


    Now it''s winter, and it''s not conducive to war, and everything has stopped. Enough time. It''s a good time to go south to Xiangyang to settle the marriage. By the beginning of next spring, I''m afraid there will be another war.


    At that time, there will be no time.


    Xu Shu got up and left to do his work.


    There are a lot of things he will do next, including the arrangement of a new sheriff''s office and the arrangement of many official positions Everything needs to be arranged by Xu Shu.


    Seven days is fleeting.


    In the twinkling of an eye into the end of November, the weather has become increasingly cold.


    In seven days, Zhang Xiu finished reviewing the official positions of many officials, such as Kuai Qi, Huang Zhao, Ling Feng, and so on. They were all arranged and promoted.


    Everything is on the right track.


    The location of the hospital that Zhang Zhongjing is looking for has also been determined, which is in the center of the south of the city. In order to provide enough space for the hospital, Zhang Xiu allocated a full 300 mu of land to cope with the subsequent expansion of the hospital.


    A hospital can cover an area of 300 mu, which is a great event.


    This makes Zhang Zhongjing happy.


    However, during this period of time, Zhang Zhongjing was also very busy. Fortunately, we can see the results. Some of his friends have come to Yuyang county to help him plan the establishment of the hospital.


    It''s just, it''s going to take time.


    On this day, in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu had breakfast early, dressed neatly, and was ready to leave. Just as Zhang Xiu was about to leave the sheriff''s residence, Gan Ning came in a hurry and reported: "my Lord, it''s not good."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Gan Ning looked solemn and said: "Huang Zhao was carried back by the soldiers, and now he is lying in the barracks. He was seriously injured and broke his hands and feet. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Gan Ning explained: "on the Lushan side, he encountered obstacles. Huang Zhao brought 1000 soldiers into Luyang County, but everything went well. But when he arrived in Lushan and was ready to take control of Lushan, he was besieged by savages in the mountains. "


    "Besieged by savages?"


    Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice: "Luyang county is located in Nanyang County. Lushan is not a barbarian land, but the hinterland of the Central Plains. How can there be savages in the mountains?""At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, there were descendants of six countries who might hide in the mountains and become savages."


    "But now, after hundreds of years, it''s impossible for Lushan to have one. What''s more, Huang Zhao was sent back at a discount. It''s obvious that the other party didn''t kill Huang Zhao because of my existence. "


    "Otherwise, Huang Zhao would have died."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were firm and determined: "there must be something fishy in it."


    Gan Ning said: "my Lord is wise. Huang Zhao said earlier that he was surrounded by a group of savages and was in trouble. It''s just that he didn''t get killed, he was just discounted. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "go to the barracks."


    Gan Ning said, "isn''t the Lord going south?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "let''s shelve the matter of going south. Let''s understand Huang Zhao''s business first. If we can''t get the black charcoal smoothly, the people of Nanyang County will be very difficult in this cold winter. "


    Ganning felt sorry.


    More secretly scold Huang Zhao incompetent, marry Huang Yueying, that is the event of Zhang Xiu.


    It is also a great event for the officers and soldiers of Ganning county and Nanyang County. Because Huang Zhao''s work was not good, Zhang Xiu had to postpone the time of going south, which affected the event.


    Gan Ning followed Zhang Xiu and soon entered the camp.


    Zhang Xiu comes to the camp where Huang Zhao is resting. At the moment, Huang Zhao''s face is pale and painful. The bones of his legs and hands are broken. Although they can be recovered, it will be very painful if the bones of his hands and legs are broken in cold weather.


    Recovery is slow, too.


    Huang summoned Zhang Xiu to enter the camp and immediately got up to salute him. But before he sat up, Zhang Xiu held down Huang Zhao and said, "if you are not healthy, you don''t have to salute. Come on, what''s going on? Make it clear. "


    Huang Zhao said: "Lord, I''m guilty of being humble. I''ve failed to live up to my Lord''s high expectations."


    "After entering Luyang county with 1000 elite soldiers, I said hello to the magistrate of Luyang county and went straight to Lushan. When they arrived at the foot of the Lushan Mountain, they arranged for soldiers to stay on the main road and took over the Lushan Mountain. "


    "When I was preparing to dig for the black coal, some people dressed like savages rushed out of the mountain. There are a lot of these savages, nearly 3000 of them. "


    "Each other has weapons."


    "A thousand soldiers under my command are stationed separately, and some of them dig for black charcoal."


    "If you resist in a hurry, you will lose like a mountain."


    "Although I lead and fight and retreat, I am still surrounded by the other side. After a while of beating, my hands and legs were broken, and many soldiers were seriously injured


    "Fortunately, they didn''t kill us all, and they didn''t kill us, so they just walked away."


    Huang Zhao looked very happy and said, "so, the last general can come back.


    Zhang Xiu inquired, "have you found anything suspicious?"


    "No!"


    Huang Zhao shook his head and said, "if the other party doesn''t talk to me, he will hit me directly. Their faces were smeared with colorful dyes, and they could not identify themselves. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "who is it?"


    For this, Zhang Xiu also doubts, but let the heart, but breeding out of the murder.


    Mining anthracite from Lushan is not only related to the survival of the people in Nanyang County, but also related to Zhang Xiu''s financial revenue. No one is allowed to destroy it.


    Whoever gets in the way of Zhang Xiu will be killed.


    Kill the gods!


    Buddha block and kill Buddha!

 Chapter 109

    Gan Ning said: "Lord, although Huang Zhao was attacked, the number of people on the other side was small after all. At the end of the war, the general led his troops north to Luyang county and captured Lushan. And you will take the time to go south to Xiangyang. "


    "No, I''ll go myself."


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there is a sharp color, and a more solemn one.


    There are no mineral deposits in Lushan.


    Only coal mines.


    Under such a premise, the other party must have found out the advantages of Lushan anthracite if he expelled Huang Zhao. Otherwise, there will be no conflict with Huang Zhao. One can mobilize thousands of people, and the strength is not weak, worthy of Zhang Xiu''s attention.


    He has to go in person.


    Because anthracite can''t be lost.


    Gan Ning even said: "the LORD went to Luyang County in person. The matter of going south will be delayed."


    "No harm!"


    Zhang xiudao: "slow down, just slow down."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu inquired: "has pangtong been informed about Huang Zhao?"


    "No!"


    Gan Ning said: "as soon as Huang Zhao came back, he went to the sheriff''s office to inform the Lord, but he didn''t have time to inform the military adviser."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately inform Pang Tong to tell him about Lushan and let him go north with me. In addition, you will mobilize another 3000 soldiers to follow me north to Luyang county. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning responded directly.


    Zhang Xiuzi left the camp first.


    I can''t go south for the time being. I have to make it clear to Huang Yueying, otherwise Huang Yueying will be worried. When he arrived at Huang''s shop, he went directly to the back yard, where he met Huang Yueying, who was busy.


    Today, Huang Yueying is still busy studying utensils.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was coming, Huang Yueying looked happy and said, "after the general has dealt with the matter, are you ready to leave for Xiangyang to say goodbye to me? Do you want me to come with you when you go south


    Listen to Huang Yueying''s words, but Zhang Xiu is some apology.


    This time, I broke my promise.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not to Xiangyang, just a little later.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you want to go south, I will take you with me. However, I encountered an emergency and couldn''t go to Xiangyang for the time being. I''ll have to wait until I''ve finished my work before I can go south again. "


    Huang Yueying''s face was stiff.


    She was stunned for a moment, then began to smile again and asked, "what happened?"


    Zhang Xiu immediately told Huang Zhao''s story and the importance of coal. Finally, she said, "there has been an accident in Luyang county. If we can''t get black carbon, it''s very likely that countless people can''t survive this cold winter."


    "This thing is not to be lost!"


    "I have to go in person to get the black charcoal on Lushan Mountain to ensure that the people in Nanyang County can live a warm life. Moreover, it is also one of the financial sources under my command, which is related to the future development. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "our marriage, when I come back from Lushan, I will set out to go south immediately."


    "Hoo


    After hearing this, Huang Yueying also breathed a sigh of relief.


    She is not unreasonable.


    She can understand Zhang Xiu.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, just based in Nanyang County, is not as ingrained as Liu Biao. At this time, Zhang Xiu, the failure of any one thing, may lead to instability.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu had to go north.


    Huang Yueying said with a smile: "although you go north, don''t have any burden. Besides, I''m here. You''ve been here. You can''t run. Earlier and later, it doesn''t make much difference. "


    "I''ve wronged you!"


    Zhang Xiu touched Huang Yueying''s cheek with a touch of heartache.


    "Don''t be wronged!" said Huang Yueying


    Zhang Xiu was pressed for time. After talking for a while, she said, "when I come back, I will come back from Luyang County soon."


    "Well!"


    Huang Yueying nodded again.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and left.


    Huang Yueying looks at the back of Zhang Xiu''s leaving. The smile on her face gradually disappears, and a helpless look emerges. Her idea is that she hopes to go south immediately, but when Zhang Xiu meets something, she can understand it and is willing to support it.


    This is the mentality of Huang Yueying.


    Zhang embroidery out of the Huang family shop, convergence of emotions, went straight to the barracks. By the time he arrived, Pang Tong had already arrived and understood Huang Zhao''s situation.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "Shiyuan, what do you think?"


    Pang Tong''s eyes flashed a fine light and said: "Lord, after we defeated the Huns, we led our troops to Luyang county and accepted the surrender of Luyang county."


    "Lu GUI, the magistrate of Luyang County, is a gentleman and an official who benefits the people."


    "This person, there will be no problem."


    "There are no gentry in Luyang county. The great people in Luyang County know his prestige and can''t conflict with him. ""I don''t believe in the idea of savage."


    Pang Tong said: "the guess of despicable position is that there is a force in Lushan, not the local force in Nanyang County, but an external force. They discovered the role of black carbon and wanted to control it. "


    In front of her eyes, Zhang Xiu said, "what Shiyuan said is very deep in my heart. I think so, too."


    Pang Tong said: "when we go to Luyang county and enter Luyang County, we just need to ask who has bought the land near Lushan to judge. However, when the LORD went to the north, he suggested that he should travel in secret and not reveal his whereabouts to avoid scaring the snake. "


    "No problem!" said Zhang Xiu


    Pang Tong continued: "this time when we go north, there will be war. Is 3000 soldiers enough?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "there are more than 3000 elite, enough!"


    Pang Tong said: "that''s no problem. You can set off for the north."


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered to leave.


    Ganning had already mobilized soldiers. After getting Zhang Xiu''s order, more than 3000 soldiers braved the severe cold and cold wind to leave the barracks and go to Luyang County in the north.


    It''s not easy to go all the way north.


    It''s getting colder because it''s getting colder now.


    It''s snowy, and it''s hard to get on the road. It took nearly half a month from Yuyang county to Luyang county.


    It arrived in early December.


    The army under Zhang Xiu''s command is still hidden, not exposed for the time being, and the army is stationed outside the city. After Zhang Xiu settled down in the army, she quietly entered Luyang county with pangtong and Ganning.


    What Zhang Xiu wants to do is to find out the situation.


    Instead of going directly to the county government, he inquired about the news in the city. Through the inquiry of the people, Zhang Xiu learned that during this period of time, Lu GUI, the magistrate of Luyang County, had made great achievements in actively relieving the disaster and treating the people.


    People have a good impression of Lu GUI.


    This is still the Lu GUI that Zhang Xiu saw in the past, and has not changed.


    Zhang Xiu also asked the people, want to understand the situation of Lushan through the people. But without exception, the people said they didn''t know, no one knew that there was black charcoal on Lushan, and no one had ever used it.


    This situation makes Zhang Xiu frown.


    Since some people found anthracite in Lushan, they have sent troops to guard it and not allow outsiders to exploit it, why is anthracite not popular in Luyang county?


    It''s just about the land near Lushan. If you want to know who it is, you have to ask Lu GUI for information.


    We must follow the path of the government.

 Chapter 110

    Zhang Xiu and his party came to Luyang County smoothly. He was not in a hurry to identify himself. He only said that he was Lu GUI''s distant relative and came to join him.


    The Yamen guard at the gate heard the speech, but did not delay, and immediately entered to report.


    Zhang Xiu did so to avoid leaking information.


    He made his identity clear and was likely to let people know that he was coming.


    After a while, the Yamen came back.


    The Yamen servant looked at Zhang Xiu and hummed: "the county master said that during this period, there are many distant relatives who have come to join us."


    "A lot of people are fake."


    "Anyone who pretends to be a relative will be reprimanded by the county and then expelled."


    "You say you''re a distant relative of Xian Zun. Once you see Xian Zun and he''s torn down by Xian Zun, you can''t afford to go away. If you really want to go to relatives on purpose and leave early, Xian Zun will not embarrass you. "


    Yamen said: "if you insist on going to see xianzun, you should consider the consequences clearly."


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    He has met Lu GUI. When he sees Lu GUI, he will be recognized by the other party.


    The Yamen servant didn''t say much. He waved his hand and said, "now that you have a clear idea, just go in. Just go straight through the door. Xian Zun is dealing with government affairs in the hall. If you go, you''ll see it. "


    Zhang Xiu said thanks and took Gan Ning and Pang Tong to enter.


    A group of three came out of the hall.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the layout of the County Hall, simple and generous, but also quite style. He stepped into the hall. Only when Zhang Xiu entered, Lu guizheng was working hard to deal with the government affairs presented.


    Lu GUI is in his early 40s and looks ordinary.


    At a glance, it''s hard to find Lu GUI in the crowd, but Lu GUI has the ability to manage Luyang County in an orderly way.


    When Zhang Xiu entered, Lu GUI heard the sound of footsteps and said without raising his head: "since it''s here, just sit for a while. I''ll talk about it when I''ve finished my work. It''s so annoying that people come to identify their relatives every so often


    He still didn''t look up.


    Ganning step forward, ready to remind Lu GUI, but Zhang Xiu waved to stop.


    Zhang Xiu took a seat directly.


    Pang Tong and Gan Ning also sat down and waited quietly.


    After a quarter of an hour, Lu Guicai put down his pen and looked up at his so-called relatives. Just when he saw the moment, his heart thumped.


    Zhang Xiu!


    It''s his boss!


    Lu GUI rubbed and stood up, his face a little uneasy, quickly arched his hand salute, nervously said: "how did the general come to Luyang county? Let the general wait for such a long time, the next officer is guilty, please punish him. "


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you don''t have to. You don''t know it''s my official."


    Zhang Xiu is very appreciative of Lu GUI.


    Even if Lu GUI didn''t receive her at the first time, Zhang Xiu didn''t care.


    "Hoo


    Lu Guichang breathed a sigh of relief, his heart set, asked: "the general went north to Luyang County, but for the sake of Lushan?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to answer.


    Upon hearing this, Lu GUI went directly to the bookshelf, took out a pile of bamboo slips and put them in front of Zhang Xiu. He solemnly said, "General Zhang, the details of Lushan are here. Including who bought Lushan, when, and what actions they took in Lushan, the lower officials have found out and put them all on record. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, some surprised: "are you clear?"


    "Yes


    Lu GUI replied: "Huang Zhao led his troops to Lushan. When he was defeated, he retreated. His lower officials knew that Lushan was definitely in good condition. But Huang Zhao''s 1000 elite soldiers have all been defeated. The strength of Luyang county is definitely unable to resist the other side. "


    "So, I don''t know."


    "I didn''t send someone to interfere in Lushan''s affairs. I just sent someone to investigate the situation quietly."


    "I know that after Huang Zhao''s defeat, general Zhang will certainly deal with it. Even if general Zhang doesn''t come, he will send someone. Therefore, these materials have been prepared in advance for easy access. "


    Lu GUI''s answer is neither humble nor overbearing.


    It''s also very organized.


    This arrangement saves a lot of things for Zhang Xiu, and makes her avoid many detours.


    "Well done!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face also showed a touch of praise.


    Lugui does have the ability.


    Zhang Xiu picked up the bamboo slips and quickly browsed them.


    Today''s Lushan is in the hands of Cao lie, and large areas around Lushan have been acquired by Cao lie in the near future. All land transfer, Lu GUI are clear.


    Cao lie is a businessman in Luyang county.


    But Lu GUI did not find out the details of Cao lie when he investigated Cao lie''s followers.


    After reading it quickly, Zhang Xiu asked: "Lu GUI, when did Cao lie do business in Luyang county?"


    Lu GUI thought about it and replied, "it was in the second half of last year. I forgot my humble position and couldn''t find out why. After all, before that, Cao lie was not outstanding, and he did not enter the eyes of the lower officials. ""It was this time that something happened on Lushan Mountain, and the lower officials noticed Cao lie."


    "According to the situation at that time, thousands of savages defeated Huang Zhao. However, in Luyang County, no savages have appeared for many years. Now there are savages, most likely Cao lie''s men and horses. "


    "When I sent someone to investigate the situation of Lushan Mountain, Cao lie had already encircled it, so it was difficult for anyone to get in and out. I can''t scare the snake, and I can''t go there openly. "


    "At the moment, we can only get so much information," Lu said


    Zhang Xiuyan said, "where are the Cao Lieren?"


    Lu GUI said: "Cao lie is not in Lushan, but in the county all the time."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a fine light and said: "if so, please invite Cao lie to the county government first. Take Cao lie down first, and then deal with the situation of Lushan after being put on trial. "


    "Here it is


    Lu GUI nods and answers.


    After a pause, Lu GUI said: "it''s just the last time. I don''t know if Cao lie will be on guard. I''ll see if he comes or not. "


    Zhang Xiu looked determined and said, "I went north to Luyang county. I have hidden my whereabouts. As long as Cao lie hasn''t heard from me, he''s sure that you will come if you don''t dare to do anything with him. "


    Lu GUI said: "I''ll arrange a messenger."


    Immediately, Lu GUI called for the Yamen servant, and arranged for someone to go to Cao lie''s residence and inform Cao lie to come to the county yamen.


    Cao lie''s residence is in the east of the city.


    Its house covers an area of nearly 20 mu, which is quite grand.


    In the backyard, in the study.


    Cao lie is checking the data at the moment. The data he checks is the anthracite mined every day.


    When Cao lie was in business in Luyang County before, he was mainly engaged in grain cloth business, and did not find the use of anthracite. And as we all know, black stone burns, has a pungent smell, but also with toxicity, no one dares to use.


    By chance, Cao lie met a common man who sold anthracite. After he bought it and tried it, he found a business opportunity.


    So, Cao lie began to operate.


    he bought the Lushan Mountain and took all the surrounding land, then mobilized all the private soldiers, hiding in Lushan Mountain, and began to arrange the large quantities of anthracite for the people''s Congress.


    Cao lie has not sold anthracite yet.


    Because, inventory is insufficient.


    His plan is to mine enough anthracite, publicize it uniformly, and sell it on a large scale to make profits.


    After checking, Cao lie frowned and said, "it''s getting colder and colder, but the speed of digging black stone is too slow. It seems that we have to expand the scale and recruit more people to dig. Otherwise, I won''t have much time to operate. "


    He put down his brush and thought about the next arrangement.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the room.


    Then, with a creak, the door was pulled back. The housekeeper came in and said, "my Lord, the county magistrate is here. The magistrate of Lu County asked you to come."


    Cao lie had an alert look in his eyes and immediately asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The housekeeper said, "no!"


    Cao lie''s heart, however, was open, thinking about the reason why Lu GUI asked him.


    The housekeeper knew the cause and effect, and knew more about the war with Huang Zhao. He said in a deep voice: "master, since you defeated Huang Zhao, the Minister of Zhang Xiu in Lushan, Lu GUI has been paying attention to Lushan. During this time, he kept investigating. It seems that I have found out what I want to see you about. "


    Cao lie snorted and said, "I''m in business in Luyang county. I never violate the law and discipline. I always do things according to the law. The last time Huang Zhao was defeated, they broke into Lushan without permission. If I hadn''t thought about Zhang Xiu, I would have killed Huang Zhao long ago to prevent future trouble. "


    Guan said: "will it be that Zhang Xiu sent an order to Lu GUI to let him deal with things?"


    Cao lie chuckled and said, "it doesn''t matter whether it is or not. Because I abide by the law, Lu GUI has no evidence in hand, so I can''t help it. "


    "Master is wise," said the manager


    Cao lie stood up, put on his fur robe, went out of Cao''s house, took a carriage and went straight to the county government.


    The carriage stopped outside the county government.


    Cao lie got out of the carriage and went straight to the hall of the county government.

 Chapter 111

    Entering the hall, Cao lie sees Lu GUI sitting on the throne and Zhang Xiu sitting under the hall. Cao lie didn''t see Zhang Xiu, so he couldn''t recognize her.


    His eyes fell on Lu GUI''s body. He bowed his hands and said, "what''s the matter with the magistrate of Lu County summoning the grass people?"


    Lu GUI said: "it''s not my official who wants to see you. It''s general Zhang who wants to see you."


    When he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Xiu.


    Cao lie''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. Looking at Zhang Xiu''s sharp and angular outline, the pupils in his eyes shrank, and a look of shock swept over his face, which made him feel more unprepared.


    General Zhang!


    Besides Zhang Xiu, who else is general Zhang in Nanyang County?


    This person is Zhang Xiu.


    Cao lie''s heart sank.


    He has long arranged for people at the border of Luyang county to pay attention to Zhang Xiu''s actions. But Zhang Xiu quietly into Luyang County, he did not know.


    Knowing that Zhang Xiu had arrived, he would never have come to the county government.


    It''s like falling into a trap.


    Zhang Xiu smiles and says, "I''d like to introduce myself to Zhang Xiu. Cao lie, you order private soldiers to occupy Lushan and arrange them to attack officers and soldiers disguised as savages. Can you plead guilty? "


    Cao Li shook his head and pretended to be silly: "what did general Zhang say? Did the grassroots ever attack officers and soldiers? What you said must be about the savage attacking Huang Zhao. People in Luyang County know this, and so do the grassroots. But it has nothing to do with the grass people. Although the grass people bought Lushan and the land around Lushan, they don''t know the so-called savages. "


    It''s a felony to attack officers and soldiers.


    Cao lie can''t admit it.


    Once he admits it, he is at a disadvantage.


    In any case, Cao lie must be steady.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Cao lie didn''t admit it, her eyes gradually sharpened and she said, "good, you didn''t admit it. Since you choose to be stupid, Ben will be confused. "


    "Ganning!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered.


    "The end will be here!"


    Gan Ning rubs of stand up, a lunge comes to Zhang Xiu''s front, embrace boxing salute.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Cao lie attacked the government, intended to revolt, pull people out, and put the law in the right place."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to go straight to Cao lie.


    For a moment, Cao lie was stunned.


    Zhang Xiu is too playful. She wants to kill him directly, and she doesn''t give any room for inquiry, and she doesn''t go through the process of trial.


    Is there any royal law?


    Do you still talk about the evidence?


    Cao lie said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you have no evidence, you can''t kill me."


    Seeing this, Lu GUI also advised: "General Zhang, Cao lie is a big businessman in Luyang county. If you kill him directly, I''m afraid it will cause great turbulence. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m here. I don''t have your share."


    Lu GUI was dumb.


    In his impression, Zhang Xiu is a very enlightened person. Last time in Luyang County, Zhang Xiu promoted the virtuous and punished the treacherous and sycophantic. It was very wise.


    How can you be so overbearing?


    Lu GUI facing Zhang Xiu, can only be shut up, no longer mixed with Zhang Xiu''s things. Moreover, Lu GUI also knows that when Huang Zhao is attacked, Zhang Xiu must be angry.


    Seeing that Lu GUI couldn''t speak, Cao lie said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you are dictatorial, tyrannical and oppressive. If you kill me, you''re going to be a disgrace. You will be so overbearing because of your achievements in killing the Huns. You will regret it. "


    He yelled abuse.


    However, Ganning directly controlled him.


    Cao Lieben was not a warrior. He had no strength. In the hands of Gan Ning, he could not move at all.


    "Let go of me!"


    Cao lie kept struggling.


    But the more he struggled, the tighter Gan Ning''s hand was, the more unable he was to move, and his arms were aching.


    The whole person, very uncomfortable.


    Zhang Xiu stares at the struggling Cao lie and says faintly: "Cao lie, if you tell the truth, you will be spared your life. If you refuse to explain, you will die. "


    Cao lie held his head high and threw his head to the ground, saying: "I have nothing to explain. I am innocent. Zhang Xiu, you are the prefect of Nanyang County, but you are not the official of the imperial court. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, her eyebrows rose.


    Cao lie knew that he was the prefect, which was interesting.


    Although it has been ten days and a half months since Zhang Xiu became the prefect of Nanyang County. But the news only spread in Yuyang County, and even many people in Yuyang County didn''t know it.


    Now the road is blocked by heavy snow, and the news is blocked. How can Cao lie be so quick? He knows that he has served as the prefect of Nanyang County.


    This is a doubtful point.


    Because of Cao lie''s words, Zhang Xiu is more suspicious, and is convinced that Cao lie did what happened in Lushan.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with fine light and said, "Gan Ning, what are you doing in a daze? I''ll drag you out.""Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to go out with Cao lie.


    Cao lie was almost dragged out, and he continued to scold: "Zhang Xiu, you indiscriminately slaughter the people. What''s the difference between you and Dong Zhuo? Sooner or later, you will follow Dong Zhuo''s lead. "


    Zhang Xiu looks at Cao lie being dragged away with a calm look.


    He didn''t speak.


    If Cao Lenin died and did not speak, Zhang Xiu would recognize him. But Zhang Xiu believes that Cao lie does not have the courage to look death in the eye.


    Soon, Gan Ning dragged Cao lie to the door of the hall.


    Seeing that he was about to be pulled out of the gate and killed, Cao lie panicked at this moment and was afraid of being killed.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    He used to scold, but only for the occasion.


    It was intentional.


    Cao lie''s purpose is to confuse Zhang Xiu and let him go. As long as he doesn''t die, he can continue to carry out the work, but now it''s different.


    Zhang Xiu let Gan Ning drag him out of the hall, obviously moved the real, is really want to kill him.


    He was very anxious.


    Cao lie couldn''t help it any longer. He said, "let me go, let me go. I have something to say."


    "Wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu heard Cao lie''s words and gave an order.


    Ganning stopped immediately.


    Cao lie said, "let me go!"


    Gan Ning did not let go, eyes fell on Zhang Xiu in the hall, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s order. Seeing that Zhang Xiu waved his hand, he released it.


    As soon as Cao lie was free, he flew into the hall. With a look of amnesty on his face, he rubbed his sore arm and breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he said, "General Zhang, what do you want to ask?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "your identity!"


    Cao lie replied, "I am an ordinary businessman, doing small business. General Zhang, please don''t aim at the grassroots. If you want money, I will give it to you; if you want food, I will support you. Just ask, general Zhang, don''t bother me. "


    At the moment, Cao lie is still making a careless eye.


    He wants to muddle through.


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose and raised a look of disdain. She said: "it looks like you didn''t pay attention to me. In that case, I will give you a little reward. Ganning, discount his left leg. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ningde came to Cao lie''s back and pressed his hand on Cao lie''s shoulder. In an instant, Cao lie half bent down on his knees.


    Its posture is very strange.


    Gan Ning''s eyes were cold, and he stepped on them.


    "Chaka!"


    Stepping on Cao lie''s leg bone, peiran''s strength burst out. Under the collision, Cao lie''s leg bone broke directly.


    "Ah


    Cao lie wailed loudly with a ferocious look of pain on his face.


    Pain!


    Heartrending pain, from the calf.


    At the next moment, the red blood overflowed from his legs and dyed his robes red.


    Cao lie''s body twitched slightly.


    After a long time, the pain of tearing heart and splitting lung faded slightly. But wave after wave of pain, still in constant attack, make him incomparably uncomfortable.

 Chapter 112

    Zhang Xiu''s expressionless face did not show any sympathy because Cao lie was treated harshly. If Cao lie did not have a deeper identity, it would be impossible to organize two or three thousand soldiers to attack officers and soldiers.


    Ordinary people can''t do it at all.


    Cao lie, there is definitely a problem.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and once again said, "Cao lie, do you still want to explain?"


    Cao lie raised his head, his face full of pain was full of stubbornness, and said: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want me to explain? I''m just an ordinary businessman, a businessman. I don''t know what to account for, or what to satisfy you. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said: "it seems that you really don''t intend to cooperate. Well, I''m not in the mood to chat with you. Since you are going to carry it to the end, I will give you the best choice. "


    Cao lie said, "what''s your choice?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "death!"


    He looked at Gan Ning and said, "Gan Ning, take people out and deal with them. The technique is more neat."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to go out with Cao lie.


    Cao lie''s leg bone was broken, blood flowed out, and his robes were dyed red. At the moment, he was carried out by Gan Ning. His legs couldn''t work and he was almost dragged out.


    Cao lie''s face was full of fear.


    What to do?


    Even if he wants to sophistry, want to die to the end, it has to be built on the premise that Zhang Xiu does not kill him, to carefully interrogate. But in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu doesn''t go to trial at all, and it is the most violent killing.


    He can''t die!


    I don''t want to die!


    Cao lie still waited for a moment, hoping that Zhang Xiu would ask again. However, when he was dragged to the gate by Gan Ning, Zhang Xiu did not speak, Cao lie''s heart was flustered again.


    Cao lie kept struggling and said in a loud voice: "don''t drag me, I have something to say!"


    "Wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    He was patient enough to bring Cao lie to trial.


    Because every time he didn''t get the answer he wanted, Cao lie would be in a worse situation.


    Every time, it''s worse.


    He wants to see how long Cao lie can hold on.


    Gan Ning gets Zhang Xiu''s order and stops immediately. But he didn''t go to the hall. As soon as he loosened his hand in the same place, Cao lie''s legs were not stable, and he fell to the ground with a stagger. He even pressed his broken leg bone and showed his teeth in pain. He kept sucking cold air.


    It took a long time to slow down.


    His face was firm, his hands on the ground, and he dragged himself into the hall.


    After a while, I came to the hall.


    When Lu GUI saw this scene, he couldn''t bear it. He didn''t want to use such cruel means to bring the people under his rule to trial. What''s more, he knew how to use emotion and reason to influence the people under his rule.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Cao lie, who is sitting on the ground. She smiles and continues: "Cao lie, I want to hear it. What kind of answer will you give?"


    "I''ll give you a kind reminder. Don''t say anything about the reason for asking for money or food."


    "I''m not short of money and food."


    "If you look at him from left to right, the final result is that he will be severely punished again. Just now, you just broke the bone of one leg. If you don''t give me the answer I want, Ganning will break the bone of the other leg again. "


    "Think twice before you say the answer."


    Zhang Xiu said nothing strange, but the edge will be exposed.


    Words, full of edge..


    "Gudong!"


    Cao lie swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a look of panic appeared on his face.


    Just now it really hurt into the bone marrow.


    He didn''t want to bear the piercing pain again, but his identity couldn''t be exposed easily.


    He has to try.


    Cao lie had a decision in his heart, took a deep breath, and solemnly said: "Zhang Taishou, I found the black stone on Lushan Mountain. Then I mobilized private soldiers to stay in the mountains."


    "The last time Huang Zhao arrived with his troops, he was going to take over Lushan and mine Blackstone. I didn''t want to face you directly, so I arranged for the soldiers to dress up as savages and expel Huang Zhao. "


    "Then he took control of Lushan."


    "There are countless black stones in Lushan, which can be easily mined without deep excavation."


    "It''s cold this winter, and I''m going to make a lot of money."


    Cao lie looked sincere and continued: "I admit that I did what Huang Zhao did. It''s just that I''m really just an ordinary businessman, and I''m in Luyang County, in the whole Nanyang County, and I abide by the law, and there''s nothing against the law. General Zhang, I''ve made a mistake in Lushan. If you want to punish me, I''ll admit it. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu hummed in her heart and didn''t believe Cao lie''s words.


    He didn''t believe that Cao lie was an ordinary businessman.


    Can an ordinary businessman easily mobilize two or three thousand private soldiers?Cao lie is not a Hebei Zhen family!


    Cao lie is not Xuzhou Mi family!


    Since Cao lie was an ordinary businessman, he was able to mobilize two or three thousand private soldiers. This is a contradiction. The most important thing is that Cao lie can first know about Zhang Xiu''s role as the governor of Nanyang, which is also suspicious.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and did not say much. She said, "Gan Ning, do it!"


    "Yes


    Gan Ning got the order and went directly to Cao lie.


    "Wait a minute!"


    At this time, lugui spoke.


    Zhang Xiu said, "magistrate Lu, what do you have to say?"


    Lu guizheng said: "General Zhang, now Cao lie has pleaded guilty. What he said is similar to what he investigated. Under such circumstances, why do we have to start again? "


    Cao lie was very excited when he heard Lu GUI say good things for him. He seemed to see hope and quickly agreed: "I''m a businessman. I''m a businessman from the north. Zhang Taishou, please forgive me. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Lu GUI and scolded: "Lu GUI, if you don''t speak, I won''t treat you as dumb. I know exactly what to do about Cao lie. "


    Brush!


    Lugui''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are already serious. If he spoke for Cao lie again, he would be defending Cao lie openly.


    It''s taboo.


    Lu GUI is no longer talking.


    Just in the open heart, but some do not agree with Zhang Xiu''s approach. Zhang Xiu''s doing this is tantamount to making a move out of a trap, which is also too bloody. It''s almost a bandit''s act to break the leg bones and kill people.


    Lu GUI is also helpless, can only see Zhang Xiu trial, quietly do not speak.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Gan Ning, do it!"


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning got the order, no longer hesitated, reached out and pulled Cao lie, making Cao lie''s feet on the ground and hanging in the air.


    He raised his foot and stepped down.


    "Click!"


    The sound of broken bones rings out again.


    "Ah


    The pain came from Cao lie''s leg bone. Under the severe pain, Cao lie roared. Wave after wave of pain, invading the body, into his brain, so that his whole body, are slightly shaking.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Cao lie gasped, and the whole person was in great pain.


    His forehead, his back, his whole body is sweating.


    As if it was fished out of the water.


    He had collapsed on the ground and could not stand any longer.


    His legs were broken, blood spilled, and his lower body''s robes were soaked with blood.


    At this moment, Cao lie was extremely depressed.


    Cao lie looked up at Zhang Xiu, with a deep hatred in his eyes. At the moment, he is eager to kill Zhang Xiu for revenge, but like today''s people for the sword, I for the fish, he is the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, let Zhang Xiu butcher.


    Cao lie used his brain and kept thinking.


    He had to think about how to get out.


    Zhang Xiu is not easy to be compared with. She knows that the answer he just answered is wrong. If you don''t come up with something practical, Zhang Xiu can''t let him go.


    "I said, I said!"


    After thinking about it, Cao lie took the initiative to be soft again.

 Chapter 113

    Zhang Xiu heard Cao lie''s words, nodded and praised: "very good, you are willing to say, that is excellent."


    "But I have to remind you again."


    "My patience is very good, because I believe that no matter how much you toss, you will finally say the answer. Of course, my patience is also very bad. If your answer is wrong, you will be punished the most


    "Even, give your life."


    "So I''ll remind you again. Think twice before you say it. Think clearly before you tell me the answer."


    "This time, if it''s still nonsense, then this time, it''s breaking your arm. You''ve broken two legs. It''s not worth breaking another arm. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s clear that you can say the answer directly, but you have to stick to it until the end, especially if you bear all the pain and then say the answer, it''s too bad, don''t you think?"


    Cao lie shivered with cold.


    He hated Zhang Xiu in his heart.


    However, his heart is afraid of Zhang Xiu, even more afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Because he found that his lies could not deceive Zhang Xiu. He had no way to know why Zhang Xiu could be so sure that what he said was a lie, which he could not guess.


    Cao lie has no other choice.


    He gritted his teeth, endured the pain of his body, and continued: "I said, I said, I said. I''m from yuanshao, Jizhou. I''m lurking in Nanyang County on Yuan Shao''s orders. I found that Blackstone can make a lot of money, so when your army arrived, I mobilized my troops, expelled Huang Zhao, mined Blackstone again, and prepared to sell it on a large scale. "


    Zhang Xiu immediately laughed and asked: "Cao lie, are you sure Yuan Shao asked you to come?"


    "Yes, Yuan Shao."


    Cao lie''s definite answer.


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "it seems that you really treat me as a fool. Since you don''t plan to tell me the truth, I will play with you slowly. Don''t worry. I said that my patience is very good. Ganning, break another arm. "


    "Yes


    Ganning came forward immediately.


    Cao lie got up in a hurry and said in a loud voice: "wait a minute, Zhang Xiu. Why don''t you believe me? Clearly, I have given the answer and the people behind the scenes, why don''t you let me go? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "because you lie."


    "Now, Yuan Shao is busy with Jizhou. He has no time to settle down in Jingzhou. Now the situation in the north is that Yuan Shao reversed the defeat, defeated Gongsun Zan and stabilized the situation in Jizhou. "


    "Yuan Shaogang turned the corner. The next step is to capture Youzhou and Bingzhou and unify the three northern states."


    "He has too much time for himself. How can he be distracted in the layout of Jingzhou?"


    "What''s more, how dare you call Yuan Shao by his first name. Cao lie, Cao lie, as an official, you don''t understand the situation in the world. Can you fool around at will? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you say, should I take off your left arm or right arm?"


    Brush!


    Cao lie''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t expect that he made such a big mistake and even called Yuan Shao by his name.


    This is disrespect!


    This is also the biggest loophole.


    Cao lieshen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "it''s just a name. What''s the point? What''s more, I''m just a free chess arranged by Mr. Yuan in Jingzhou. It doesn''t affect the overall situation. Even if the situation in Jizhou is treacherous, it has nothing to do with arranging my stay in Jingzhou. "


    "Idle chess?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "an idle chess piece, can mobilize thousands of troops?"


    Cao lie puffed his cheek.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu, he has a feeling that there is no escape. He always feels that whatever he says, there will be loopholes.


    This makes Cao lie very nervous.


    What to do?


    Cao lie''s heart, thinking about stabilizing Zhang Xiu''s strategy, but he can''t persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu had a cold look in her eyes and ordered: "if you don''t want to make a choice, I will help you choose. Ganning, break his right arm. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning is ready to start.


    Cao lielian said hastily, "don''t do it, I say it, I say it!"


    Zhang Xiu said nothing.


    That resolute look in the eyes, as well as the invariable manner, obviously is lets Gan Ning continue to start.


    Gan Ning understood Zhang Xiu''s idea, immediately stepped forward, grabbed Cao lie''s left arm, and hammered hard. A fist down, just listen to a click, Cao lie hand bone fracture, immediately screamed.


    It''s broken!


    It''s broken again!


    After his legs were broken, one of his arms was broken.


    At this moment, Cao lie was about to cry. He even felt that it would take him a long time to recover and get rid of Zhang Xiu''s shadow.


    What a pain!


    Cao lie''s arms drooped, a drop of blood spilled out, very bloody.Lu GUI is not used to it.


    He didn''t like this kind of violent interrogation.


    This is the last thing he likes to see. His heart, want to persuade Zhang Xiu, but to the mouth, and swallow back. The reason is very simple. Zhang Xiu''s Refutation of Cao lie is reasonable. Maybe Cao lie has another identity.


    "Hiss! "Hiss!"


    Cao lie kept sucking cold air. After a long time, he slowed down. Only one of his faces, already taut, was full of endless pain, and his eyes were full of tears.


    It really hurts.


    His legs and one arm have been broken.


    Zhang Xiu put her hand on her knee, tapping her fingers on her knee and said again, "Cao lie, do you want to talk now? Of course, it''s not interesting that you always play such tricks. "


    "Because I''m patient, but I don''t have enough."


    "You have only one arm. If your next answer is still not satisfactory to me. In other words, if you are still dishonest, you will be killed when your last arm is broken. "


    "At that time, even if you want to say it, I will not talk to you again. So take your chance. Of course, you can also say Yuan Shu, Li Xi and Guo Si. I welcome them all. "


    Zhang Xiu has a playful look on her face.


    The smile fell in Cao lie''s eyes, but it seemed that the devil was smiling at him.


    It''s like trying to kill him.


    Cao lie''s face became more and more pale. That one because of pain, and become pale cheek, at this moment, no blood.


    He seriously suspected that Zhang Xiu knew his identity.


    Otherwise, how could it be so determined.


    Cao lie''s heart, also in constant struggle, because his heart, it is fast can''t hold. He wanted to lie again and deceive Zhang Xiu to see if he could muddle through. But after this idea came to light, the pain of being broken in his legs and hands just now appeared in his mind.


    Three times in a row.


    I admire him for not fainting. But the fourth time, he didn''t know if he could hold on.


    Forget it!


    I can''t hold it!


    Cao lie''s heart suddenly gave birth to such an idea. But in his heart, he had the idea to insist again. Two ideas, like two villains, constantly entangle, constantly want to overwhelm each other.


    "Hoo


    A moment later, Cao Liechang breathed a sigh of relief, and his face became relaxed.


    He made a choice.


    He did!


    He''s not going to insist.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, he really didn''t have the courage to stick to it any longer. He said directly, "I''ve recruited Zhang Taishou. I''m Cao Sikong who sent me to Luyang county."


    "Cao Gong asked me to lurk in Luyang county. At the same time, he also gave me a lot of money to recruit local personnel and prepare private soldiers in Luyang county."


    "The people in Lushan are all private soldiers I recruited in Luyang county."


    "Originally, I didn''t intend to do it. It''s just that I discovered the function of Blackstone and prepared to mine it. Then I sent it back to Yanzhou continuously to sell it on a large scale and raise more money for Cao Gong. "


    "I just didn''t expect that I would meet Huang Zhao and bring soldiers to Lushan."


    Cao lie said: "I admit it, I admit it. I''m Cao Sikong''s man. If you want to kill or cut, you can do as you please. "


    He was indeed sent by Cao Cao.


    However, when Cao Cao sent Cao lie to Luyang County, he didn''t ask Cao lie to do anything. He just asked Cao lie to recruit private soldiers to do business, and then sneak down to inquire about Nanyang County and even Jingzhou.


    Cao Cao captured Qingzhou, controlled Yanzhou, and controlled some parts of Yuzhou. He had planned to enter Jingzhou, so he arranged Cao lie ahead of time.


    It''s just that Cao lie was dazed by the coal.


    In other words, Cao lie wanted to contribute too much.


    So much so that the identity was exposed.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said with a smile: "if you had said that you were Cao Cao, you would not have suffered all kinds of pain. You see, it''s too bad for you. Today, Cao Cao is the only one who has ideas about Jingzhou. You are not Cao Cao''s person. Who else can you be? "


    Cao lie''s face was like ashes.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu had really guessed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Lu GUI and said, "magistrate Lu, what do you think of the result? I''m afraid that if you follow the way you put it on trial, you will not be able to get a result for another three or five days. "


    "The prefect is wise!"


    Lu Gui Shan a smile, way: "Lu GUI stupid, misunderstood the Taishou adult."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately mobilize the soldiers of Luyang county to seal up Cao lie''s residence. In addition, a few more soldiers were arranged to carry Cao lie out of the city with the officer. I''m going to Lushan to take over everything. "


    "Here it is


    Lu GUI directly responded.

 Chapter 114

    Lu GUI got Zhang Xiu''s order, and quickly left the hall to arrange things.


    Cao lie collapsed on the ground with a bleak look and a look of despair in his eyes. With a sad face, he pleaded: "I have told you the truth, prefect Zhang. Anyway, you arrange for someone to connect the bone to me, and then apply the medicine. "


    "It''s freezing. If I go directly out of the city to Lushan with you, I''m afraid my legs and arm will be useless and can''t be used any more."


    "Even if cured, there will be three diseases and two pains in the future."


    Cao lie said, "hurry up and arrange a doctor for me."


    "Lord, I will set my bones!"


    Ganning spoke at once.


    As a general, especially others often fight around, there are three diseases and two pain, that is very normal.


    Ganning is good at it.


    Moreover, he took the plasters with him. They were all top-grade plasters. They were very useful and effective.


    Cao lie didn''t believe it and questioned: "you, you, are you ok?"


    "No problem, I promise!"


    Gan Ning confidently said: "although your legs and arms are injured, I have a sense of propriety when I start. If the bone is connected, you can walk normally in three months at most. Of course, if you want to work hard, it''s impossible without more than half a year. "


    Brush!


    Cao lie''s face looks like earth.


    It''s too serious.


    But Cao lie didn''t have any extra choice. He said, "come on, it''s up to you."


    Gan Ning looks at Zhang Xiu again and asks her for advice. When Zhang Xiu nods, he squats down and quickly straightens Cao lie''s bones. He only heard Cao lie scream a few times, but after the scream, the pain on his face faded slightly, and he felt more relaxed.


    The pain eased a little.


    It''s just that the bone needs to heal, but it can''t be done overnight.


    Ganning asked someone to take the gauze from Huanxi, apply the ointment to Cao lie, and then wrap it with gauze.


    Legs and arms, all wrapped up.


    The whole person, fat a big circle.


    Gan Ning clapped his hands, stood up and said, "everything is done. Now I''m going to carry him out. It shouldn''t be a big problem."


    Cao lie said: "you know my identity, Zhang Taishou. Now, what are you going to do with me? "


    Zhang Xiu looked indifferent and said, "who are you cao lie? You are Cao Cao''s man. Even if you are Cao Sikong''s dog, I dare not do anything about you. "


    "You say, don''t you?"


    In the words, with irony.


    But Zhang Xiu continued: "so don''t worry. When you arrive in Lushan, you will cooperate with me and let the private soldiers down the mountain to accept my control. I will send some private soldiers to escort you away from Luyang county and let you return to Yanzhou. "


    Cao lie''s mouth twitched.


    Don''t dare what?


    Dare not how, still hit his double leg bone to break? And in Zhang Xiu''s words, there is discontent and anger towards Cao Cao.


    This is what he feels.


    Cao lie not far away and Zhang Xiu talk more, said: "thank you Zhang Taishou."


    At the moment, Cao lie doesn''t want to struggle any more. He just wants to leave Luyang county. When I come back to Yanzhou and see Cao Cao, I will see how Cao Cao deals with it.


    It''s not long. Lugui''s back.


    Lu GUI zhengse way: "Taishou, everything has been arranged properly, can start.". However, most of the Yamen officers went to the Cao family to seal up the shops. Is it enough for us to go to Lushan? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "my official''s army is stationed outside the city."


    Lugui stopped talking.


    As soon as he waved, several yamen officers quickly entered. They took a simple stretcher, carried Cao lie to it, covered it with a quilt, and went out.


    The party walked out of the county government and went straight out of the city.


    When the team left the city, Zhang Xiu soon gathered with the army.


    Zhang Xiu went straight to Lushan.


    Lushan is located in the northeast of the county, about ten miles away. Fortunately, from the county to Lushan, it''s a smooth and wide road. Even if the road is blocked by heavy snow, you can go there.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Lushan, it was already afternoon.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Cao lie, it''s your turn."


    Cao lie''s soldiers are all hiding in the mountains, and they have to be arranged by Cao lie.


    Cao lie didn''t dare to beat around the Bush any more. He took the people to the foot of the mountain and found the contact position. Soon the sentries came, waiting for him. Cao lie arranged for sentinels to summon all private soldiers down the mountain.


    There are more than 2600 private soldiers in the mountains.


    All the private soldiers were refugees recruited by Cao lie, and some of them fled.


    This year, it''s the easiest to recruit private soldiers, because there are too many refugees. As long as you give them a bite to eat, there will be innumerable defectors. After more than 2600 people went down the mountain, they were dumbfounded to see Cao lie on the stretcher.


    Cao lie ordered to give up the resistance, a group of people feel more baffled.But I dare not disobey.


    Zhang Xiu let his soldiers forward, collected all the weapons, put all the private soldiers in custody. Then, Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning to lead his troops to garrison at the foot of the mountain. He took Pang Tong, Lu GUI and a few soldiers to climb the mountain himself.


    Lushan is not steep.


    The road is easy to follow.


    Halfway up the mountain, they saw many people digging coal. Zhang Xiu inquired and learned that the people who were digging coal were all people around Luyang county. In order to earn some money, they came to dig coal specially.


    Zhang Xiu walked once, understood the situation clearly, then went straight down the mountain.


    Arriving at the foot of the mountain, it was dark.


    The people on the mountain left one after another.


    When the people left, they were checked and no one was able to take away the coal. Moreover, there are people stationed on the mountain day and night, so it is impossible for anyone to steal the mined ore.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and said, "Shiyuan, the exploitation of black carbon is very important. I''m not sure that no one is here. This winter, I hope you stay here. On the one hand, responsible for the mining of Blackstone; on the other hand, training reliable people to replace you. When it''s warm after the Spring Festival and you''re done, what do you think? "


    "No problem!"


    Pang Tong responded directly.


    It''s cold winter now, there is no war, and there is nothing to do in Yuyang county.


    If you stay in Lushan, you can still do something.


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, I need 2000 soldiers to stay. In addition, all the money from Cao lie''s house hunting will be arranged by me. I have to pay the people. After all, they come to mine black carbon, and they all earn hard money. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded: "if you have something to do, go directly to Lu GUI and ask him to help you."


    Lu GUI said: "please don''t worry about Zhang Taishou. My lower officer will do his best to help Pang Junshi."


    On the way, he knew Pang Tong''s identity.


    Pang Tong is Zhang Xiu''s military adviser.


    In addition, I also know that Pang Tong is the nephew of Pang De Gong and comes from a big family.


    He can''t afford to offend such people.


    Cao lie suddenly said, "I have a request, madam Zhang. I don''t know. Would you like to agree? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what request?"


    Cao lie said: "I hope when I leave, give me some black stone and let me take it back to Yanzhou. After all, it''s very cold along the way. I want to use Blackstone to keep warm and avoid freezing. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    The light flashed in his eyes, and he hummed: "I''m afraid you don''t want to keep warm, but to take the black stone to see Cao Cao. If you have a black stone in your hand, you can tell Cao Cao that it is for the purpose of seizing the black stone that you reveal your identity. "


    "Unfortunately, I won''t give it to you."


    "It''s not easy for you to persuade Cao Cao with your empty mouth and white teeth after you return to Yanzhou."


    "After all, Blackstone is known to be poisonous."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "but you can rest assured that Blackstone will be sold in large quantities after a period of time. At that time, the news will spread to Yanzhou. Cao Cao will know about it and reward you. "


    "You..."


    Cao lie''s teeth itched with anger.


    He didn''t expect that his scheming was exposed by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu no longer pays attention to Cao lie, and orders the soldiers to light torches and camp at the foot of the mountain.


    The night passed.


    The next day, Zhang Xiu arranged for things, and sent 20 Cao lie''s soldiers to escort Cao lie away.


    Pang Tong stood beside Zhang Xiu, looking at the back of Cao lie''s leaving, and said, "does the Lord regret that he let Cao lie go? After he returns to Yanzhou, he will certainly add oil and vinegar, and even encourage Cao Cao to attack Nanyang County."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "I regret it. I did have a chance to kill Cao lie. I wanted to kill him. But now, it is not appropriate to have a grudge with Cao Cao. "


    "What Cao lie did in Nanyang County was unreasonable. Even if Cao lie returns to Yanzhou, Cao Cao has no reason to blame us, and there is no reason to send troops. "


    "For the moment, first stabilize Cao Cao."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed bright and said: "we need time to develop, and we must go north to Guanzhong after the spring of next year to gain a foothold in Guanzhong. When we have a real foothold, we will not be afraid of Cao Cao. "


    Zhang Xiu was extremely resentful of Cao Cao and Cao Pi.


    But he''s rational.


    He knew that he could not be the enemy of Cao Cao at the moment, and Cao Cao had nearly a year to go to Nanyang County. Under such a premise, he doesn''t want everything to change.


    He wants to stay the same.


    First accumulate strength, and gather a strong force before Cao Cao goes south.


    When the time comes, I will be ashamed again.


    In this life, he will not repeat the same mistakes and will surely defeat Cao Cao.


    In this life, we must take revenge.


    Pang Tong didn''t know what Zhang Xiu thought, but he agreed: "the Lord''s consideration is very reasonable. After Cao Cao stabilized Yanzhou and Qingzhou, he would go south sooner or later. Let''s hold on to Cao Cao first, and wait until we have enough strength, then we can wrestle with him. ""That''s right."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He asked Pang Tong to pay attention to the situation of Lushan, so he took Gan Ning and the remaining 1000 soldiers to leave Lushan and go to the county.


    When the army returned to the county seat of Luyang County, the army replenished the food in the city, and Zhang Xiu entrusted Lu GUI with it, and then took the army to the south.

 Chapter 115

    Zhang Xiu with more than a thousand soldiers south, all the way in a hurry, almost no pause. In the case of heavy snow, it took less than ten days for Zhang Xiu and his party to arrive in Yuyang county.


    The soldiers in the army are very tired.


    Zhang Xiu asks Gan Ning to lead the soldiers to the camp to rest. He goes back to the prefect''s house and sends someone to invite Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu asked: "Lord, what''s the situation in Lushan?"


    "It''s settled!"


    Zhang Xiu answered, and then told Cao lie in detail. She also told Pang Tong about staying in Lushan for the time being.


    After hearing this, Xu Shu said: "Cao Cao is worthy of being a hero in the world. His focus is still in Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Xuzhou, so he has arranged for people to sneak into Nanyang County. It seems that it won''t be long before Cao Cao attacked Nanyang County. We need to be ready. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were solemn and said: "in a short time, Cao Cao should not attack. So we have enough time to prepare. Of course, once Cao Cao is killed, we will not be afraid. "


    Although Zhang Xiu''s memory, Cao Cao will not go south for the time being.


    But there could be accidents.


    Out of Lushan, Cao lie returned to Yanzhou. He didn''t know what would happen.


    Xu Shu also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s words and asked, "when will the LORD go south after he returns to Yuyang county?"


    Today, Zhang Qicheng replied


    Xu Shu said: "the war is coming. If you set out to go south earlier and decide on the marriage, you can have fewer variables. I''m in favor of the Lord going south. Otherwise, it will be delayed until next year, and I don''t know what will happen. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "when I''m not in Yuyang County, you can decide everything, don''t ask me."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Xu Shu bowed down. Zhang Xiu went to the backyard, changed his clothes, left the prefect''s house and went to Huang''s shop. When he arrived, Huang Yueying was actually studying female workers.


    This scene surprised Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Yueying has always disliked female workers, and has never been interested in embroidery.


    How did you start to learn embroidery?


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu asked, "Yueying, how did you start to learn to be a female worker?"


    "Nothing, just want to learn."


    When Huang Yueying saw Zhang Xiu, she hurriedly put away her clothes and put them in her room. Then she said, "young master, you''re back in Yuyang county. Are you ready to go south?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "when I come back, I will fulfill my promise. Now it''s time to go back to Xiangyang. Hurry up and follow me south. "


    "Good!"


    Huang Yueying nodded.


    She quickly went to pack up the salute. When everything was ready, she came to Zhang Xiu and said happily, "young master, everything is ready. Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu also does not delay time, took Huang Yueying out of the Huang family, then took the carriage south.


    ¡­¡­


    Yanzhou, Xudu.


    Xudu, also known as Xuchang.


    After Cao Cao returned to the emperor, he moved his capital to Xuchang County, which was also renamed as Xudu.


    Inside the city, Sikong mansion.


    Cao Cao''s Sikong mansion covers a large area, but it is not luxurious, on the contrary, it is very simple. Cao Cao himself called on officials to be diligent and thrifty. Although Cao Cao welcomed back to the emperor, with the emperor in his hand, his life was not easy.


    In terms of food, we are even more stretched.


    Yanzhou is different from Jingzhou and Jizhou. It has experienced countless wars and the people are poor. In addition, Yanzhou''s land is not as fertile as Jizhou and Jingzhou. Most of the land is barren and seldom cultivated.


    It was in this way that Cao Cao ordered the garrison to increase grain production and supply the army.


    Sikong mansion, in the study.


    Cao Cao''s short stature, ordinary appearance, but the end of the eyes, a pair of black eyes, through the glittering, bright. He is sitting cross legged at the moment. Although he is sitting at will, he has his own bearing.


    He is buried at his desk and dealing with government affairs.


    Cao Cao was in charge of everything in the court. The emperor was like a puppet, so Cao Cao was very busy. Although Cao Cao had some advantages in controlling the government, he had both advantages and disadvantages. He also had to mediate the situation between the two sides.


    After all, the emperor in the hands, there are certain disadvantages. Many of the ministers brought by the emperor were loyal to the emperor and the Great Han, intending to help the emperor seize power and do everything against Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao seems to be in power, but in fact it is not easy.


    When Cao Cao was dealing with government affairs, there was a rush of footsteps outside his study.


    Next, someone''s coming in.


    The people in their early twenties, dressed in white robes, were elegant and outstanding. He has a pair of dark and shining eyes, which are full of penetrating light.


    His name is Guo Jia.


    He is Cao Cao''s true confidant.


    Around Cao Cao, only Guo Jia could enter Cao Cao''s study without the report of soldiers.This is Guo Jia''s privilege.


    Cao Cao heard the sound of footsteps, with a faint smile in his mouth. He knew that Guo Jia was coming.


    Putting down his pen, Cao Cao said, "it''s just right that fengxiao came. There''s just one thing I want to hear from you. Dong Cheng, the father-in-law of the state, was appointed general Wei because he helped the emperor to Xu county. The plan at that time was to appease Dong Cheng and give him an official title. But the emperor and his courtiers were not satisfied with the power at present. They hoped to give Dong Cheng real power and let him take charge of the imperial army. You see, what should we do with it? "


    Guo Jia lifted up his robe and sat down with a casual look, saying, "Lord, what does Wen Ruo mean?"


    Wen Ruo is the character of Xun Yu.


    Xun Yu was also Cao Cao''s confidant and an important official in the court, who was responsible for taking care of Cao Cao''s rear area. Under Cao Cao''s command, no one can surpass him in his ability of governing state affairs.


    Under the coordination of Xunzhou, Yanzhou had a harmonious government and people, and there was no shortage of food and grass, which was the credit of Xunzhou.


    Xun Yu was loyal to Cao Cao and the emperor.


    In other words, Xun Yu was loyal to the Han Dynasty.


    Xun Yu and Guo Jia were close friends, so Guo Jia wanted to see Xun Yu''s attitude.


    What if Xun Yu also supported Dong Cheng to take charge of the imperial army?


    Cao Cao said: "Wen Ruo didn''t express his opinion on Dong Cheng. However, some of the old ministers in the court, jijiying, all wrote in the hope that Dong Cheng would be in charge of the army. These people are afraid that the world will not be in chaos. Let them go to war, they can''t; let them govern the government, they can''t. But in their struggle for power and profit, they have a lot of means. "


    Guo Jia said: "if these people were not of average ability, the emperor would not have fled everywhere and finally fell into the hands of the Lord. He thought that Dong CHENGWAN could not control the imperial army. "


    "The chief General of the forbidden army must be the confidant of the Lord."


    "No one else can do it."


    "Do you remember how Dong Zhuo died? Dong Zhuo ordered Lv Bu to control the Imperial Army, but in the end, Dong Zhuo died in Lv Bu''s hands. "


    "Once the forbidden army falls into the hands of the emperor, it will be dangerous for the Lord to enter the palace. If the Lord wants to control the power, he can''t give up the candidate of the forbidden army "


    Guo Jia had a sharp look in his eyes and said:" however, we can''t ignore the emperor''s proposal, otherwise, the court will attack the Lord again. It''s fair to suggest that Dong Cheng be given a little military power. Nothing else. "


    Cao Cao said, "fengxiao knows me!"


    Obviously, Cao Cao also considered this matter.


    He just wanted to listen to Guo Jia.

 Chapter 116

    Cao Cao changed his mind and asked, "what''s the important thing about fengxiao?"


    The expression on Guo Jia''s face changed from relaxed to dignified, and he said, "there is one thing about Zhang Xiu."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guo Jia explained: "Cao lie came back from Nanyang County, and his legs and arm were broken. He was carried back from Luyang County by soldiers, and the situation is very miserable. "


    Cao Cao frowned and said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guo Jia explained: "when Cao Lei explained, he said that in Luyang County, nearly 3000 private soldiers have been recruited, and the development is very good. Later, Cao lie found a kind of black stone on Lushan Mountain, which is smokeless and tasteless when burning. It can keep warm and is non-toxic. "


    "After he sent someone to buy Lushan, Zhang Xiu sent someone to mine Blackstone, but Cao lie turned him out."


    "Later, Zhang Xiu went there in person."


    "He lost to Zhang Xiu and was tortured by Zhang Xiu to extort a confession, and finally revealed his identity."


    Guo Jia gave a general account of the situation, took out the letter presented by Cao lie and said, "the details are in the letter. Please read it. Cao said that he was considering the freezing weather this year. Blackstone can keep warm, and it''s very cheap to mine it. In order to earn money for the Lord, his identity is exposed. "


    Cao Cao did not rush to express his position. He quickly scanned it and then said, "do you think Blackstone really exists?"


    "Exist!"


    Guo Jia was very determined and said: "with Cao lie''s temperament, he will not lie. What''s more, if this can be verified, he dare not cheat the Lord. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed and thought for a moment, then said: "Zhang Xiu interrogated Cao lie''s identity, but didn''t kill him. She just drove him out of Luyang county. Obviously, it is in consideration of my official. Fengxiao, how do you deal with Zhang Xiu? "


    Guo Jia was silent when he heard the speech.


    This is a big event.


    Zhang Xiu killed two thousand Huns, and even more killed huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu. The court and the public were shocked, and all the officials applauded. Cao Cao also pushed the boat along with the current and gave Zhang Xiu a Nanyang sheriff.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, not only has a certain strength, but also has a certain reputation, not easy to deal with.


    However, we can not ignore it.


    Otherwise, once Zhang Xiu became a great leader, it would be extremely unfavorable to Cao Cao.


    Guo Jiasi said in a deep voice after asking for something: "it''s reasonable to say that the Lord has captured Qingzhou now. He should focus on Xuzhou and strive to defeat Lv Bu as soon as possible to capture Xuzhou."


    "Xuzhou is rich and well-off. With the help of Xuzhou''s salt industry, the financial difficulties can be alleviated."


    "But now Zhang Xiu is more and more powerful. If you don''t control it or even kill Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid there will be trouble. So I suggest that after the spring of next year, I will send troops to Nanyang County to attack Zhang Xiu. "


    "If we can tear a hole in Jingzhou, it''s worth it!"


    "As long as there is a bridgehead and a foothold in Jingzhou. In the future, it will not be difficult to attack Nanyang County and get close to Jingzhou. The place we want to attack is still Luyang county. "


    "It''s not only Yanyang County, but also Heishi County, which is the easiest to control."


    Guo Jia gave his advice.


    He hopes to attack Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao stroked his beard and turned his mind. After a moment, he said, "now attack Zhang Xiu. I''m afraid there will be countless people against it. Especially Dong Cheng''s group, they are all praising Zhang Xiu and thinking that Zhang Xiu has become a great man. "


    Guo Jia sneered and said: "although Zhang Xiu has made great contributions, it is not without black materials. Zhang Xiu, who was born in the Xiliang army alone, was enough to attack. "


    "If the Lord wants to be famous, he only needs to issue an imperial edict, saying that when his majesty fled, the Xiliang army under Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu also participated in the pursuit and killing of his majesty, and that the Lord''s crusade against his ministers is enough to stop youyou''s mouth."


    "As for Zhang Xiu''s defeat of the Huns, it''s everyone''s responsibility to resist them. That''s what Zhang Xiu should do. To be sure, we all admire Zhang Xiu for defeating the Huns and killing them. But when it comes to political and military confrontation, there is nothing to say but to fight. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes are sharp, strong way: "now Zhang Xiu, has a certain climate, can no longer indulge in sitting big.". Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s real foothold in Nanyang County is a great threat. "


    "It will be very difficult to go south to Jingzhou."


    "Zhang Xiu is different from Liu Biao. Liu Biao lives in Jingzhou. Although he is powerful, Liu Biao is just a dog guarding his home. He is not afraid."


    "If the Lord does not attack Liu Biao, then Liu Biao will not attack him."


    "But Zhang Xiu is not the same, this son is very aggressive. In a short time in Nanyang County, he killed Yi Ji, chopped Wei Yan, paid homage to Pang Degong, swept the Deng family in Nanyang, and laid a solid foundation."


    "He is not willing to be lonely."


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu is not like Liu Biao, so we must curb Zhang Xiu. Of course, if we can defeat Zhang Xiu at the beginning of next spring, it will be the best result. "Cao Cao praised: "the words of filial piety can be described as penetrating, when it comes to my heart."


    "If you know me, you should be filial!"


    Cao Cao has a smile in his eyes.


    His heart, also want to attack Zhang Xiu, can''t delay time.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong now.


    In fact, compared with Zhang Xiu in history, today''s strength of Zhang Xiu. It''s several times stronger. Whether it is their own strength, or their own fame, or the strength behind them, they are extraordinary.


    Therefore, Cao Cao should send troops ahead of time.


    Guo Jia also regained his calm and said, "I''m going to appease Cao lie. Although he confessed his identity, he can infer it with Zhang Xiu''s wisdom. No wonder Cao lie."


    Cao Cao said, "it''s hard to be filial."


    "It''s not hard to be humble!"


    Guo Jia laughed, got up and went out of the study to the place where Cao lie had a rest.


    After leaving Sikong mansion, Guo Jia took a carriage and walked less than a quarter of an hour to his office. Now Cao lie is resting in his office.


    Guo Jia sighed when he saw Cao lie and looked at the miserable Cao lie.


    This embroidery is really cruel!


    Two legs and an arm, all abruptly interrupted, really cruel.


    Guo Jia said, "I reported you to my Lord about your stay in Luyang county. Now, you need to be at ease. Lord, I don''t blame you. Relax your mind. "


    Cao lieming was relieved and said, "thank you for your kindness. Cao lieming will remember it."


    In Cao lie''s opinion, he will definitely be punished.


    If Cao Cao was not punished, Guo Jiamei must have said a few words, otherwise he would have escaped punishment.


    Guo Jia said: "the Lord doesn''t blame you because you didn''t make any impact. Don''t say much. Go back and have a rest early. Next spring, your majesty will attack Nanyang County to avenge you. "


    "Yes, I''ll go back."


    When Cao lie heard this, he became excited.


    He saw an opportunity for revenge.


    After Cao Cao established himself in Yanzhou, he was always invincible. When Cao Jun enters Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu will be defeated. There was a look of longing in his eyes, as if he saw the scene of Zhang Xiu becoming a prisoner after her defeat.

 Chapter 117

    Jingzhou, Xiangyang.


    The prefecture.


    Liu Biao was very angry when he learned that Zhang Xiu had become the prefect of Nanyang County. Because Nanyang County is under his rule and his downfall, the imperial court arbitrarily appointed Zhang Xiu as the prefect of Nanyang County, which is tantamount to beating him in the face.


    Of course, under normal circumstances, the right to appoint a prefect lies with the imperial court. But now the world is in chaos, the prefects of each county are appointed by the prefects themselves.


    Liu Biao didn''t give an order, but Zhang Xiu became the prefect of Nanyang County, which embarrassed Liu Biao.


    But after Liu Biao was angry, he was helpless.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is not weak.


    If he arranges another governor of Nanyang County to take up his post, he will declare war with Zhang Xiu openly.


    This is what Liu Biao doesn''t want.


    Liu is not willing to break the table of peace, he is not willing to fight. However, Liu Biao was angry and acquiesced that Zhang Xiu was the prefect of Nanyang County. Soon after, news came that Zhang Xiu was going to Xiangyang to report to him.


    This makes Liu Biao very confused.


    Report on work?


    Zhang Xiu tells Liu Biao about his work. Can Zhang Xiu have such a good heart?


    Liu Biao is suspicious.


    In Liu Biao''s opinion, Zhang Xiu must have a plot, so at the first time, he arranged for the soldiers to invite Cai Mao.


    Cai Mao came to the library in a hurry and said, "Lord!"


    "Sit down!"


    Liu Biao waved his hand.


    After thanking him, Cai Mao sat down and asked, "my Lord, what''s the matter with you


    Liu Biao said: "Zhang Xiu wants to report her work to the south. Do you know?"


    "I know!"


    Cai Mao nodded and answered.


    Liu Biao said: "Zhang Xiu has always been extremely cunning and vicious. He has to go to the three treasures hall for everything. Since he goes to Xiangyang in the south, he must have some plans. He said he was reporting to me, but I didn''t believe it. What do you think Zhang Xiu has in mind? "


    Cai Mao frowned and said, "I''ve thought about it in my humble position, but I can''t figure out Zhang Xiu''s intention. You see, if you want to call Kuai Yue, please ask Kuai Yue for advice. "


    "No need!"


    Liu Biao answered directly.


    After hearing this, Cai Mao''s eyes flashed a glimmer of joy.


    Just now, he asked Kuai Yue just to test Liu Biao''s attitude towards Kuai Yue. When Cai Mao heard Liu Biao''s reply, his heart fell to the ground and he was more pleased with Liu Biao''s attitude towards Kuai Yue.


    In other words, when it comes to Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao is not willing to discuss with Kuai Yue, because Kuai Liang, or now Kuai Yue, plus Kuai Qi, has been submissive to Zhang Xiu.


    The whole Kuai family lacks aggressiveness towards Zhang Xiu, so Liu Biao alienates Kuai Yue when it comes to Zhang Xiu.


    This is Cai Mao''s judgment.


    Cai Mao was determined and said: "Lord, although we can''t judge Zhang Xiu''s attitude, we have nothing to worry about. After all, if Zhang Xiu wants to go south to Xiangyang, she will go south alone. It''s impossible for her to come with a large army. "


    "Let''s see what waves he can make when he arrives in Xiangyang."


    "The most important thing is that before the people of Zhang Xiu arrived, they had already arranged for publicity. Xiangyang reported his work to the Lord. Since he publicizes like this, he must behave himself. "


    "If Zhang Xiu wants to make trouble in Xiangyang, it''s a slap in the face."


    Cai Mao said, "we don''t have to worry about it. Just wait and see what happens."


    Liu Biao stroked his beard and praised Cai Mao''s analysis. However, he said with emotion: "speaking of Zhang Xiu''s reputation, now in Xiangyang and even Jingzhou, many people regard Zhang Xiu as a hero. If we want to deal with Zhang Xiu, it''s not easy. "


    Cai Mao''s heart beat.


    Against Zhang Xiu?


    If Liu Biao didn''t have this idea, he couldn''t have said such a sentence. It must be Liu Biao''s intention that he suddenly said it was not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Only in this way can Cai Mao take over the conversation.


    Cai Mao understood Liu Biao''s meaning and said: "my Lord is wise. In today''s situation, it''s really not good to deal with Zhang Xiu aboveboard. But if you do it secretly, it''s different. "


    The corner of Liu Biao''s mouth rose slightly and raised a smile.


    Cai Mao knows him.


    Liu Biao leaned forward slightly, looked expectant, and asked, "how can you do it secretly, De Li?"


    De Li is Cai Mao''s word.


    His words for Cai Mao show that he is in a good mood.


    Cai Mao also hated Zhang Xiu.


    In Zhang Xiu''s hands, he suffered a great loss, and his heart also wanted revenge. It''s just revenge, not fighting on the battlefield. Because Cai Mao knows Zhang Xiu''s ability and wants to defeat Zhang Xiu in the battlefield, he doesn''t have this ability.


    It can only be a surprise.


    The only way to win is to use dangerous tactics.


    Cai Mao''s eyes twinkled with a cool color and said: "Lord, there are a group of Rangers in Xiangyang City, who are dedicated to taking people''s money to eliminate disasters. As long as they can afford money, they dare to do it, no matter whether they are princes or nobles or important officials. ""We are officials. We can''t deal with Zhang Xiu, otherwise we will be criticized easily."


    "The best way to deal with Zhang Xiu is to ask the Ranger to do it."


    Cai Mao gave his own suggestions.


    "Reliable?"


    Liu Biao was curious in his eyes, but eager to try on his face.


    "Reliable!" Cai Mao said


    Liu Biao worried: "Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are extraordinary. What if the assassin is caught and his identity is exposed? Once we have confessed, we will be blackmailed by Zhang Xiu. "


    To deal with Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao is very cautious.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu was difficult.


    But now Liu Biao is deeply afraid of Zhang Xiu. He thinks that Zhang Xiu is a threat to him, and he is unwilling to let Zhang Xiu sit up. If the strength of Zhang Xiu further expansion, Jingzhou will have a huge threat.


    So Liu Biao has to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao''s original idea was to let Zhang Xiu act as a barrier to the north of Jingzhou to resist the attack of Cao Cao in the north. But Cao Cao hasn''t killed Zhang Xiu yet.


    Liu Biao was deeply disturbed.


    Cai Mao was calm and explained, "please don''t worry, my Lord. I''ll arrange a meeting with you. Rangers only know the mission, but they don''t know the Lord and his humble position. It''s impossible to give up our identity. Even if it fails, it doesn''t matter much. "


    "That''s good!"


    Liu Biao''s face looked expectant.


    Cai Mao said: "in that case, I started to deal with it. When Zhang Xiu enters Xiangyang City, he takes down Zhang Xiu. "


    Liu Biao''s big sleeve flicked, and there was a voice on the ground: "why do you have to wait for Zhang Xiu to enter Xiangyang City? As long as you have a chance, you can do it in Xiangyang, Xiangyang or Nanjun. "


    After a pause, Liu Biao said: "it''s really a little late when Zhang Xiu arrives in Xiangyang City and the Ranger starts again. At that time, it will not be easy for us to shirk our responsibilities. "


    "I understand."


    Cai Mao nodded: "don''t worry, my Lord. I''ll let you do it earlier. Try to solve the problem before Zhang Xiu enters Xiangyang City. However, after Zhang Xiu''s death, Nanyang County may be in turmoil. Is it necessary to arrange troops to the border ahead of time? "


    "No!"


    Liu Biao shook his head and said, "if we arrange the army ahead of time, we will tell the people that we planned to kill Zhang Xiu. You can''t expose your identity if you kill Zhang Xiu this time. When Zhang Xiu dies, Nanyang County is in chaos. It''s not too late to do it again. "


    Cai Mao said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Biao solemnly said: "Cai Mao, Zhang Xiu is not an easy generation. We must arrange excellent troops and strong generals. Whether you can take revenge or not, and whether I can be shamed before the snow, is in this battle. As long as Zhang Xiu lives, he is not only a disgrace to you, but also to the Cai family and even to me. Only when Zhang Xiu is dead can everything go with the wind. "


    Cai Mao''s face changed slightly.


    It''s a great shame that he became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner and compensated countless money.


    As mentioned by Liu Biao, Cai Mao is also shameless. He clenched his teeth and solemnly said, "please don''t worry, my Lord. I will arrange it properly. This time, it is guaranteed that Zhang Xiu will never come back. There are many ways to deal with Zhang Xiu secretly. "


    "I''m waiting for your good news."


    Liu nodded and looked forward.

 Chapter 118

    From Yuyang county to the south, the road is smooth.


    No matter Xinye or Deng County, no one dare to stop Zhang Xiu. Although we are not in a hurry all the way down the south, most of the time, we can only eat dry food because we can''t find a place to eat in the wilderness.


    This makes Zhang Xiu quite helpless.


    Fortunately, the more south, the more prosperous. After leaving Nanyang County and entering Xiangyang, although the weather is still cold and snowy, more people come and go, and villages can be seen in many places.


    You can sleep in the evening, eat at the post station along the way at noon, and eat some hot food.


    On this day, in the evening.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying are 20 li away from Xiangyang City. According to the current speed, it will take another day.


    They found a village and stayed in it.


    Zhang Xiu is an old widowed woman.


    The old woman followed her husband''s surname Deng, whose name had been forgotten for a long time. People around her called her Deng. The house the old man lived in was clean, and there was no one else except her.


    Under Deng''s knee, there are two sons and a daughter.


    Two sons are living in Xiangyang City, one is the county yamen''s servant, the other is the door guest of the authority.


    Her daughter, already married.


    When Deng talked about his son, his face couldn''t stop showing pride.


    She is an old woman, born in a small mountain village, illiterate, and has never seen the outside world. Xiangyang has two sons who can''t live in the city.


    In the Deng family, because their two sons are often filial, there is no lack of food and clothing. When it''s time for the meal, Deng prepares a meal for Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying.


    After dinner, Huang Yueying got up to clean up the dishes. However, she was stopped by Deng, saying that Huang Yueying was a woman from a rich family and would not let her help.


    Huang Yueying can''t help but let it go.


    When Deng washed the dishes and chopsticks and came to the hall, he sat down beside the brazier.


    Looking at the frosty old man on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "old man, your two sons are in Xiangyang City, and your daughter is married. Why do you stay alone in the village instead of living in the city? "


    Deng''s smile, very satisfied, said: "you don''t know, my eldest son and younger son, have their own things, I am an old woman, don''t bother to trouble them."


    "The mother-in-law of the eldest son has a certain status in the family and is very particular about it. I''m an old woman who doesn''t know any big characters. I don''t know anything. I''m not used to living in it. "


    "My youngest son is a powerful guest. He is busy all day and is not at home most of the time. When I go to my youngest son''s house, I have nothing to do."


    "It''s better to stay in the village."


    With a kind look on her face, Deng said slowly, "the old lady has lived in this village all her life. All the people around are old neighbors and familiar people. It''s very good to sit together and spend time together after finishing farm work in the daytime. "


    "When I go to the city, I don''t know anyone. I have nothing to do all day. I feel flustered and rusty. In particular, the two sons of the old woman are filial and often come back to see me, which is very good. "


    "I live alone, carefree and comfortable," Deng said. You see, the old woman is over 50 years old. She is strong and has good teeth. Her children and grandchildren are happy and contented. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said with emotion: "you said you don''t know one big character. In my opinion, many literate people can''t compare with you. It''s very nice of you to be content. "


    Deng also chuckled.


    She is an old woman, can get Zhang Xiu such expensive childe''s praise, also feel very shameful.


    "Bang! Bang


    Suddenly, a knock on the door rang out of the yard.


    It''s the beat of the yard.


    When Deng heard the sound, he seemed to think of something, and his face changed slightly. She stood up in a hurry, looked at Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying, and said, "Mr. Zhang, don''t come out of the room. Do you know?"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what happened?"


    Deng didn''t answer. When he came out of the room, he closed the door and hurried to the yard.


    Her wrinkled face was full of smiles. But now it was getting dark, and the cold wind was blowing inside his neck. Without realizing it, Deng shivered.


    Deng''s tight tight clothes, bent back, went to the door, opened the door: "Liu TingChang, it''s almost dark, you come to the old lady''s home, what''s the matter?"


    There are three people standing at the gate.


    The head of the group is a burly, eight foot tall and rugged man, who is Liu TingChang in Deng''s mouth.


    The other two are his followers.


    Liu TingChang''s name is Liu Wang, and his ancestors are said to be Liu Sheng, King Jing of Zhongshan. It''s just that he has no genealogy, so the credibility of Liu Sheng''s offspring is not high. However, Liu Wang always publicized that he was a descendant of Liu Sheng and a royal lineage.


    It''s a pity that his family has been in decline and has not been recognized.In his early years, Liu Wang''s family was very poor. In his early years, he joined the army to eat. Not to mention, with all his brute force, he made some contributions in the army and became the pavilion chief after returning to his hometown.


    Today''s Liu Wang is infected with too many bad habits.


    From time to time, they go everywhere to squeeze people, bully the old and the weak, and reap benefits.


    Now at home, it''s very rich.


    Deng''s sons and daughters often come back to show filial piety. The old man is not short of money and has a very easy life. Just like this, he is often bullied by Liu Wang. Although Deng was bullied, she never said a word, nor told her son and daughter, for fear of causing trouble for them.


    Such a situation, also led to Liu Wang again and again, repeatedly bullying Deng.


    Every time, Deng put up with it.


    "I''m looking around at the safety belt with a smile. The brothers are busy in the cold, and they are also very hard. I haven''t had a bite of hot food since morning. You can give some money so that the brothers can buy some wine. "


    Deng''s heart trembled. The folds on her face piled up, forming a series of ravines. She looked helpless. She trembled and said, "how much does Liu TingChang want?"


    "Not much. Five hundred."


    Liu Wang raised his palm on his stomach and opened it to reveal five characters.


    Deng''s face changed slightly.


    Five hundred!


    This is not a decimal for an old woman.


    Her money doesn''t fall from the sky, but her children are filial. Every once in a while, Liu Wang came to play autumn. It''s really hateful. This time, the lion asked for 500 yuan.


    It used to be tens of Wen. This time, it''s too much.


    Deng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Liu TingChang, the old lady lives alone. How can she have so much money. I have some wine and meat here. You see, how about giving it to you directly? "


    She is patient.


    Even if he was exploited by Liu Wang, he would swallow his anger and refuse to make trouble.


    Liu Wang is not satisfied, eyes cold down, hands fork in the waist, gritted his teeth: "Mrs. Deng, don''t blame this pavilion did not remind you. If you don''t drink and drink, you will suffer from disaster in your family, or you will encounter any misfortune. Don''t blame me for ignoring you. Those who know each other take out 500 yuan, and the pavilion leader turns around and goes. Otherwise, you have to be careful. "


    "Liu TingChang, this, this..."


    Deng was threatened and his face was full of helplessness.


    "Oh, what a prestige."


    A loud voice suddenly came from the hall.


    Creak!


    The door opened and Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying came out together. Zhang Xiu''s eyes are sharp, and her eyes fall on Liu Wang at the door. She looks scornful and even more murderous.


    This scum, damn it.


    As the head of a pavilion, he doesn''t want to defend his country and homeland, but he wants to exploit the people and extort the people''s fat and cream.


    It''s time to kill!


    When Deng saw Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying coming out, his heart sank.


    Zhang Xiu is your son!


    Huang Yueying is a precious girl!


    These are all golden people, where is Liu Wang such a rough opponent.


    She waved her hand and asked Zhang Xiu to return. Then she explained in a hurry: "Liu TingChang, the couple are passers-by staying in the old lady''s house. They are all good people. Don''t worry. Liu TingChang, I gave you 500 yuan. I gave you 500 yuan. "


    She knew Liu Wang''s character.


    This is a greedy master, in case of Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying''s idea, it would be bad.


    So, she gave the money directly.


    She did not want to live in her home, the noble people, was foolproof.

 Chapter 119

    After Liu Wang became the head of the pavilion, there were nine concubines in his family.


    Every concubine was robbed.


    Liu Wang served as the head of the pavilion in the countryside. Although he was a sesame sized official, the county magistrate was not as good as the present one. The position of the head of the pavilion gave him too many advantages.


    In addition, in the face of Liu Wang''s plunder, the people under his rule did not dare to resist, so Liu Wang developed a domineering temperament.


    Liu Wang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, but directly ignored Zhang Xiu, eyes fell on Huang Yueying.


    His eyes were shining, his mouth was slightly open, and he was almost drooling.


    Beautiful!


    How beautiful!


    The nine concubines in his family are also pretty, with thin waist and big buttocks. However, these women were eclipsed in front of Huang Yueying. Compared with his concubine, Huang Yueying''s skin is white and her big eyes are watery, which makes her heart sway.


    Most importantly, Huang Yueying has a temperament.


    This is the feeling of poetry and calligraphy in the belly. Huang Yueying stands there, and she is happy and angry. She has her own charm.


    This made Liu Wang''s heart beat.


    After Liu Wang looked at Huang Yueying up and down, evil came from his heart, ready to take Huang Yueying. But he didn''t know the identity of the other party, so he looked back at Zhang Xiu and asked, "boy, who are you?"


    He asked.


    This is asking for directions.


    If Liu Wang knows that the identity of the other party is not simple, he will not act too aggressively, and will be appropriately restrained. Although the way he looked at Huang Yueying just now was disrespectful, it didn''t matter. He was able to withdraw.


    If Liu Wang finds that the other party''s identity is ordinary, he will show his tusks and ask him to beat the mandarin duck with a stick and take Huang Yueying back.


    It''s perfectly normal for one or two people to disappear in the remote areas.


    Liu Wang''s heart, began to look forward to.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu listens to Liu Wang''s words, she understands that Liu Wang is trying to find out. His eyes narrowed, and there was a trace of killing in his heart, because he found that Liu Wang was coveting Huang Yueying.


    Zhang Xiu did not immediately start, said: "my husband and wife, from Nanyang County, to Xiangyang City to join relatives."


    When Huang Yueying heard the word "husband and wife", she suddenly felt a touch of shame on her face.


    She and Zhang Xiu are not husband and wife.


    Can hear Zhang Xiu''s words, but in the heart is sweet Zizi.


    Seeing Huang Yueying''s manner, Liu Wang itches to take Huang Yueying away immediately. He turned his eyes and fell on Zhang Xiu again. He continued: "so you have to go to Xiangyang to go to your relatives because your family is in trouble?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    He would like to see what the pavilion chief would do.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Liu Wang began to laugh and caressed his hands and said, "well, it''s a good family. It''s a good family. Lao Tzu, I like you children of rich families. Boy, I like your woman. You, get out of here, women are mine. If you leave by yourself, I''ll spare you a small life. Otherwise, don''t blame me for being rude. "


    Deng''s heart is more anxious.


    Previously, she let Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying stay in the room, did not expect two people disobedient.


    Now both of them are out.


    She didn''t want the two people to suffer from misfortune. She quickly stood in front of Zhang Xiu and bowed herself to say, "Liu TingChang, I''ll pay. I''m willing to pay. Don''t embarrass the couple."


    "Go away, old lady!"


    Liu Wang yelled directly, with a look of impatience in his eyes.


    He didn''t want to talk to Deng.


    For now, let''s start with the beauty.


    Liu Wang rubbed his hands and threatened again: "boy, be wise, you can save your life. If you don''t listen, it''s light to break your hands and legs, and you can''t save your life. "


    "Zhang denger came to deal with the matter and stood at the back of me," she said


    "You, you..."


    Deng''s eyes were full of worry.


    Zhang Xiu said softly, "don''t worry, old lady. I''m here. No problem. It''s just a few rogues. I can''t be defeated. "


    Deng stopped talking.


    After all, it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to come from a rich family.


    Zhang Xiu stood up with her head high and her eyes fell on Liu Wang. She said, "I''m standing here. What can you do for me?"


    He didn''t do it first.


    Because this is not Nanyang County. If such a thing happens under the rule of Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu doesn''t talk nonsense and takes people directly, but this is Xiangyang.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t take the initiative, but has to wait for Liu Wang to do it first. In this way, the responsibility is not Zhang Xiu, but Liu Wang. In addition, Liu Wang bullies Liang Shan and acts like a bully. When things get to Liu Biao''s ears in Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu can stand up and is not afraid of Liu Biao''s target.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s consideration.


    Liu Wang sneered and said, "I''ve seen all kinds of people. I''ve never seen anyone like you. You are itchy, and you take the initiative to beat me. ""Well, I will help you!"


    "Give it to Lao Tzu, no matter what happens."


    Liu Wang gave the order directly.


    In his eyes, he didn''t think Zhang Xiu could resist. Moreover, he doesn''t care about Zhang Xiu''s life and death. It''s normal for a broken family to come to Xiangyang and go to his relatives.


    The people he brought, come forward immediately.


    The two valets are ferocious, clenching their fists and quickly walking towards Zhang Xiu.


    To be close to Zhang Xiu, one of them swung his fist.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, in the fist near the body in front of the moment, then quickly stretched out his hand. He spread out his palm, grasped his opponent''s fist, immediately closed his palm, and pulled his fist in his direction.


    In an instant, the other side lost the center of gravity, a stagger, the body will not stop forward.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu lifted her foot, she kicked it out.


    To deal with this kind of rogue, Zhang Xiu had no pity, and poured nearly 100% of her strength.


    "Pa!"


    The sole of the foot kicks in the belly of the shrew. In a flash, the shrew screams, and the whole person collapses to the ground directly, covering his belly and rolling constantly. His face is full of pain.


    Zhang Xiu cleanly took down one person, another person has been close to his back, ready to attack. Zhang Xiu turned decisively, raised her high feet and swung her slender thighs like a Tomahawk.


    "Bang!"


    The bone of the leg was cut on the shoulder of the shrew, and the great force pressed it down. The shrew snorted, and fell to the ground, and the shoulder was even more painful.


    He''s smart and doesn''t do it anymore.


    I can''t get up on the ground.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of the bruised skin. Her eyes fell on Liu Wang with disdain. She hooked her finger and said, "come on, it''s your turn now. I''ll see how you live or die. "


    Liu Wang gritted his teeth in anger.


    Rubbish!


    Two wastes!


    Two people to the last one, were easily cleaned up.


    "Boy, die!"


    Liu Wang clenched his fists, stamped his feet, and his big body rushed out. He was a big man. After he rushed out, he was like a bull, with strong momentum.


    Zhang Xiu is still very relaxed.


    In his eyes, Liu Wang was full of flaws.


    In a flash, Liu Wangchong comes to Zhang Xiu. His body shape a meal, drum up strength, swing a fist to hit, vow to beat Zhang Xiu. Only when his fist came to Zhang Xiu''s body, Zhang Xiu turned sideways and avoided it.


    Zhang Xiu raised her left hand and leaned out, holding Liu Wang''s wrist directly. The palm of her hand pressed down hard.


    Liu Wang''s palm was pressed down, and his wrist hurt badly.


    "Ah


    The scream came from Liu Wang''s mouth.


    But Zhang Xiu did not give up. When he restrained Liu Wang''s wrist, he raised his right hand and bent it into an elbow, which was knocked down in the air. The position where the elbow fell was just Liu Wang''s elbow joint.


    "Chaka!"


    The crisp voice came out, Liu Wang''s elbow joint broke, and his bones protruded.


    At this moment, Liu Wang''s pain reached the extreme. His heart was torn and his lungs were torn. It was like a wave. Wave by wave, Liu Wang''s body was shaking.


    Zhang Xiu''s move is powerful. It''s like flowing clouds and flowing water. After hitting his elbow, he raised his right leg again.


    Hard knees, up one.


    "Pa!"


    A dull sound, knee hit Liu Wang''s lower body.


    Under the fierce impact, Liu Wang''s eyes were wide open, his mouth wide open, and his eyes were empty at this moment, without any focus.


    The pain made him lose his mind.


    The pain made his heart ache.


    "Ah


    The sound of tearing heart and lungs came from Liu Wang''s mouth. As soon as Zhang Xiu let go, Liu Wang''s burly body collapsed on the ground and kept rolling. Liu Wang clearly felt that the eggs under his hip were broken.


    Zhang Xiu is so cruel!

 Chapter 120

    The scene of broken eggs is too painful.


    The two previously fallen on the ground were also numb scalp. They didn''t dare to scream any more. While biting their teeth, they also clamped their legs for fear that Zhang Xiu would do the same to them.


    They can''t bear the pain.


    Zhang Xiu stood aloof and looked down at Liu Wang, who was falling on the ground. She said, "well, you are also a pavilion leader. You don''t want to protect the environment and the people, but you harass the people. It''s really damned."


    Liu Wang bit his teeth and endured the pain. After a long time, when the pain faded, he said coldly, "boy, you beat me hard enough! If you have the guts, you''ll kill me. Otherwise, if I don''t kill you, I won''t be Liu. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "how do you plan to kill me?"


    Liu Wang snorted and said with disdain, "I, Liu Wang, used to be in the army. General Cai Mao used to be my chief General. If you bully the veterans under his command, as long as general Cai Mao says something, you will die without a burial place. General Cai wants to kill you. It''s as simple as crushing an ant. "


    "What is he?" she said? Once upon a time, he was my prisoner. "


    "No way!"


    Liu Wang retorted: "you think you are Zhang Xiu and can capture general CAI."


    At this point, Liu Wang was stunned.


    People in front of him say that Cai Mao was his prisoner. Is it really Zhang Xiu?


    For a time, Liu Wang was flustered. He stammered: "you, you, are you really Zhang Xiu?"


    At the moment, Liu wangman is unbelievable.


    Zhang xiudao said: "if it''s fake, it''s guaranteed to be changed!"


    Liu Wang''s heart thumped, his heart sank, his face was like earth, and his eyes were full of panic.


    Liu Wang would not believe that Zhang Xiu had come to Xiangyang without the news that Zhang Xiu was going to go south to report his work to Liu Biao. But the story of Zhang Xiu''s going to Xiangyang to report on her work has been spread all over the world.


    This must be Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Wang''s cheek twitched and said awkwardly, "General Zhang, this is really a flood of water rushing to the Dragon King temple. Misunderstanding. It''s all misunderstanding. "


    He can only be soft, there is no other way.


    Zhang Xiu is the grand prefect of Nanyang County. She has a strong and powerful position. And he, just a small pavilion long, can''t provoke Zhang Xiu such big guy.


    As long as Zhang Xiu stretched out a finger, it was enough to crush him.


    The other two were also frightened.


    They never thought that they would meet Zhang Xiu. It''s really bad luck to go out without looking at the Yellow calendar.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Wang collapsed on the ground, said: "you say it is a misunderstanding, I don''t think it is a misunderstanding. You Liu Wang such person, bullies the male to bully the female, bullies the good, is in vain for the pavilion long. If you live in the world, you will only harm the people. "


    "No, never again."


    Liu Wang is aware of Zhang Xiu''s intention to kill and shivers with fright.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Now his family is rich. He wants money, food and women, and he is so rich that he doesn''t want to die like this.


    Liu Wang pleaded: "I''m wrong, prefect Zhang. I know I''m wrong. I''m willing to pay for it. I''m willing to take out a thousand dollars as an apology. Please forgive me for my life. "


    "I''m not short of money!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head.


    As he spoke, his hand was on the sword at his waist.


    Liu Wang is such a shrewd person who can bend and stretch. Now let him go. When he looks back and waits for Zhang Xiu to leave, he will certainly treat Deng badly and even cause trouble to Zhang Xiu.


    It is impossible for such a person as Liu Wang to repent.


    We can only cut down the roots.


    "Sonorous!"


    The sword of Longquan came out of its sheath. Under the dark sky, the blade was cold and shining.


    Liu Wang cowered back in fright and said, "no, don''t kill me. Mr. Zhang, I''m willing to pay for it. I''ll agree to any terms you offer. Please don''t kill me. "


    But Zhang Xiu ignores it completely. She strides to Liu Wang''s body and stabs her with her sword.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the sword pierced into Liu Wang''s heart.


    A sword, then wear chest.


    The red blood gushed from Liu Wang''s chest and dyed his clothes red.


    Liu Wang opened his mouth wide, and there was still an expression of reluctance on his rough cheek. He raised his hand to struggle, but after struggling for a while, his arm flopped down, his head tilted, and there was no breath.


    This scene, fell into the eyes of the other two shrewd, two people scared incontinence.


    They''re all retreating. They don''t want to die.


    "No, don''t kill me!"


    "Please forgive me


    "We were forced by Liu Wang, and we didn''t want to come."


    ¡­¡­


    Two people you a word I a word, constantly beg for mercy.


    Zhang Xiu had a look of disgust in her eyes, but she didn''t plan to kill the two men. She yelled, "shut upTwo rascals, silence at once.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were cold, and she said, "I didn''t intend to kill you. Now, carry Liu Wang''s body to see the Shangguan here. Tell him that Ben killed Liu Wang. "


    "When Ben will arrive in Xiangyang, he will also play his affairs to the governor. If you dare to bully the people again, Liu Wang''s death will be a lesson for you. "


    After Zhang Xiu said something, she waved her hand and said, "go away!"


    "Yes, yes!"


    Shrewd, dare not delay, endure the pain of the body, quickly carrying Liu Wang body to leave.


    Deng Shi came over, she looked at Zhang Xiu, also some formality up, bowed and said: "people''s wife, meet Zhang Taishou."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "old lady, don''t be polite. We are just like before. You can treat me as a younger generation. There''s no need to be formal. I don''t eat people, do you think? "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Deng nodded one after another, but his heart was also excited.


    Liu Wang is dead!


    Since then, no one will harass her and extort her money from time to time.


    Although Deng was a native of the countryside, he knew the etiquette and had heard about Zhang Xiu''s killing Xiongnu. In her eyes, Zhang Xiu is a great hero and the most powerful person.


    There must be nothing wrong with killing a Liu Wang, so she is not worried.


    Zhang Xiu takes the broom and takes out the plant ash from the stove. It falls on Liu Wang''s blood and cleans up the blood on the ground. Clean up the blood, he took Deng back to the hall.


    Zhang Xiu''s tone and attitude remain unchanged, but Deng''s is still a little reserved.


    She is in awe of Zhang Xiu!


    She thinks Zhang Xiu is a good person.


    However, after all, she is an ordinary people, and Zhang Xiu is an official. The oppression brought by the identities of both sides, Deng''s in front of Zhang Xiu, has always been somewhat restrained, can not relax.


    Zhang Xiu can see that she doesn''t chat much. She goes to the room to have a rest with Huang Yueying.


    Just to the room, Huang Yueying sat beside the bed, but a touch of rosy clouds appeared on her face. She is still Huang Hua''s daughter. This is the first time that she has been alone with Zhang Xiu.


    Because there is only one vacant room and this bed.


    Before that, when Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying went south to stay, they lived separately, or they made do with living in a broken temple, but they didn''t lie on the same bed.


    This is the first time.


    Huang Yueying was a little uncomfortable and said, "young master, I sleep inside and you sleep outside. You are not allowed to overstep."


    "Well, listen to the lady."


    Zhang Xiu blinked, with a look of banter on her face.


    "Who''s your wife? You''re not allowed to talk about it yet."


    When Huang Yueying heard the word "madam", her face was even more bashful. She couldn''t stand Zhang Xiu''s teasing.


    Zhang Xiu looks relaxed, said: "although it is not in name now, but in my heart, you are my wife."


    Huang Yueying snorted and acquiesced.


    Her heart, but also sweet Zizi, no more to say.


    Zhang Xiu knows that Huang Yueying''s face is thin, but she doesn''t joke too much. They just take off their coats to have a rest. Only the quilt has only one bed. When they lie down to have a rest, Huang Yueying and Zhang Xiu take a rest at a distance.


    A little move, there is cold wind invasion, very uncomfortable.


    Zhang Xiu is not used to this. She reaches through Huang Yueying''s neck, embraces Huang Yueying''s shoulder, makes Huang Yueying lean against him, and says with a smile: "silly girl, there''s no need to be so far away. Don''t be cold. Don''t worry. I promise I won''t mess with you. "


    "Seriously?"


    Huang Yueying asked.


    Zhang Xiu face with a bad smile, said: "do you want me to mess?"


    Huang Yueying said angrily, "I''ll ignore you. Hum, I''ll find Mrs. Deng and have a rest with her. "


    "Oh, I won''t say it."


    Zhang Xiu chuckles twice, embraces Huang Yueying like a hand, digs away from the topic and says private words.


    Time goes by.


    Unconsciously, they went to sleep.

 Chapter 121

    Under the night, the cold wind is blowing.


    Goose feather like snow, clattering down, covering the whole ground, making the whole land, are dressed in silver. Too much ice and snow, even at night, is not particularly dark, after all, all around is white snow.


    On the official road, someone is riding on the horse.


    People on horseback, wearing a black cloak, separated the ice and snow.


    Under the cloak was a thin cheek.


    The cheek had long narrow eyes, slightly sunken eyes, no flesh on both cheeks, but bright eyes. In his eyes, there was a faint cold light.


    That eye light gives a person''s feeling, as if is a wolf general.


    His name is Deng Zhan, from Jingzhou.


    He is a Ranger in Xiangyang.


    Deng Zhan has received the task to assassinate Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts, because he didn''t need to inquire about it. He had someone to send him a message. Before dark, someone came to find the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu, and then told him where Zhang Xiu lived.


    So Deng Zhan came all night.


    Although the official road is covered with snow, the horses can still drive and are running fast.


    At the moment of the year, Deng Zhan came to the village where Zhang Xiu stayed.


    He got off the horse and came to the gate of Zhang Xiu''s yard. He looked at this courtyard, his eyes showed a touch of nostalgia, more a touch of faint smile.


    He stepped forward, pushed open the wooden door at the gate of the yard, stepped on the snow at the gate, and went in quietly. When he reached the gate, he took off his cloak, took out a dagger from his waist and inserted it into the crack of the door.


    Sharp dagger, down the crack of the door, fell on the bolt.


    Dagger, little by little.


    The door bolt was quickly broken open.


    He pushed the door open and entered the room with a slight force in his hand. When Deng Zhan enters the room, Zhang Xiu wakes up when his ears move.


    This time south, Zhang Xiu never relaxed vigilance, has been loose outside and tight inside, never sleep at night. He was on guard when he heard the sound coming from the door.


    Listen carefully for a while, after hearing the footsteps, more sure someone touched in.


    It''s not Deng''s footsteps.


    Deng is old, and his voice is heavier when he walks at night.


    The footsteps are too light.


    Zhang Xiu lifted the quilt, picked up the Longquan sword, quietly walked to the back of the door, quietly waiting. He stood by the door and didn''t go out immediately, because once he went out, it was easy to scare the snake.


    He just needs to wait in the room.


    Deng Zhan didn''t know that Zhang Xiu had woken up. He came to Zhang Xiu''s room, stretched out his dagger, fell on the bolt along the crack of the door, and moved the bolt a little bit.


    Deng Zhan''s heart is very calm.


    He has always been very patient in the business of killing people.


    As long as he doesn''t disturb Zhang Xiu, he sneaks in quietly. Even if Zhang Xiu is good at martial arts, he is sure to kill her. What''s more, according to the information, Zhang Xiu also took Huang Yueying South together.


    With Huang Yueying as a burden, it is easy for him to kill Zhang Xiu.


    If you kill Zhang Xiu, he can get 100 liang of gold.


    This is real gold.


    It''s not other money.


    When Deng Zhan pulls the door bolt, a figure suddenly appears behind him.


    It''s the Deng family.


    She had a shallow sleep, hearing and seeing. When she heard the sound of footsteps, she got up to check. After seeing someone prying the door of Zhang Xiu''s room, he quietly opened the door and looked at it behind through the crack of the door.


    The more she looked, the more familiar she felt.


    The person in front of her seems to be very similar to her little son.


    "Zhan ER!"


    Deng called.


    When Deng Zhan heard Deng''s voice, he stopped immediately. He looked embarrassed, drew out the dagger and turned to face Deng.


    At this moment, he was at a loss and said, "mother, how did you wake up?"


    Zhang Xiu in the door, heard the dialogue between the two sides.


    He was surprised.


    Unexpectedly, it was Deng''s son who came to assassinate him.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe that Deng wants to kill him. If Deng conspires with his son, he can poison his meal at night. There''s no need to wait until now to let his son do it.


    Zhang Xiu had a good impression on Deng.


    So he didn''t go out.


    He hid in the door and did nothing.


    Outside the door, when Deng saw that it was really her son, she saw that Deng Zhan was still holding a sharp dagger in his hand. Her face covered with wind and frost sank down immediately and yelled in a low voice: "come with me!"


    "Yes


    Deng Zhan looked at Zhang Xiu''s house regretfully and followed Deng.


    Deng Zhan is always filial and dare not disobey his mother.Even though he was already an adult, he even made a certain reputation among the Rangers in Xiangyang. But in front of his mother, he was as respectful as a child.


    Deng Zhan follows Deng and enters the room.


    After Deng sat down, looking at his son standing with his hands down, he asked in a deep voice, "zhan''er, tell me honestly why you took a dagger to pry the door. Are you planning to kill the couple?"


    Deng Zhan said: "mother, this is my son''s private matter. Please don''t ask. Don''t stop me from doing what I do. "


    Deng clenched his fist and said angrily, "with an old lady, you can''t be against Zhang Taishou. Why is it bad for Zhang Taishou. Is it because they have collected other people''s money and want to kill Zhang Taishou? "


    "Yes


    Deng Zhan answered directly.


    He did not dare to disobey Deng''s words, so he said: "if the mother does not let her, the son will not kill her. My son is leaving now. You don''t think he came back tonight. When we get out of here, my son will think of a way. "


    "You, you''re going to piss me off!"


    When Deng heard Deng Zhan''s words, his face turned red and his ears rose. He said angrily, "you son of a bitch, the old lady put the words here. If you are not good for Zhang Taishou, your mother will die in front of you."


    "My mother is illiterate and doesn''t know the truth, but she knows the good and the bad."


    "When the Huns came, they didn''t see anyone else resist. It was Zhang Taishou who took the soldiers to resist, and then killed the Huns to protect the safety of Jingzhou."


    "He is a great hero!"


    Deng said with a loud voice, and continued: "this evening, Liu Wang, the dog, came to my house to have fun again. He asked me for 500 yuan. It was Zhang Taishou who came forward and solved the problem."


    "Prefect Zhang is upright."


    "He is a good official."


    "How can you murder such a man?"


    "My old Deng family is not a scholarly family, but also a loyal and virtuous one. Although there are no rich and noble people in our ancestors, the old lady has taught you since childhood to let you know right and wrong. "


    "But now, you are so disappointing."


    "You are so virtuous that when an old woman goes underground after her death, how can she explain to your father and face the ancestors of the Deng family?" he said


    When it comes to emotion, Deng is already in tears.


    As soon as those two lines of tears flowed down, Deng Zhan was immediately flustered and at a loss.


    What he fears most is his mother''s tears.


    "Plop!"


    Deng Zhan knelt down straight and said, "mother, my son is wrong. Please calm down."


    Wiping his tears, Deng asked, "are you really wrong?"


    "My son knows his mistake," Deng said


    When Deng Zhan was very young, his father died on the battlefield. It was Deng who brought up his two sons and one daughter with a handful of excrement and urine. Deng Zhan''s obedience and respect for his mother.


    When Deng heard Deng Zhan''s words, he put a smile on his face and said, "since you know your mistake, you should go with your mother to apologize to Zhang Taizhou and pray for Zhang Taizhou''s forgiveness."


    "Ah


    Deng Zhan was surprised.


    He counseled: "mother, son, this has not entered Zhang Xiu''s room, there is no need to apologize."


    "What did you say?" asked Deng


    "Nothing, nothing."


    Deng Zhan shook his head one after another. He did not dare to fight against his mother.


    Deng Shi way: "that you go not to go!"


    "Go, son."


    Deng Zhanxin''s hair is bitter, and he feels sad. This embroidery is just for lodging. How did he come to his home. Originally, Deng Zhan felt that Zhang Xiu''s staying in his home made him familiar with the terrain and more conducive to action.


    Unexpectedly, I was hit by my mother.


    It''s really bad luck.

 Chapter 122

    Deng put on his coat, put his hair in a bun, and dressed neatly. Then he took Deng Zhan to the door of Zhang Xiu''s room. She stepped forward, reached for her hand, knocked on the door, and said in a soft voice, "prefect Zhang!"


    Zhang Xiu heard the cry and stood on guard.


    He didn''t know what the situation was.


    After a cry, Deng said again, "the old lady has something to ask for. Please open the door."


    "Just a moment!"


    Zhang Xiu returned, his left hand holding the sword hanging at his waist, went to the door and opened the door sideways. Seeing Deng Shi and Deng Zhan, Zhang Xiu was on guard and said, "old lady, what''s the matter?"


    "Plop!"


    Deng lifted up his robe and knelt down. Looking at Deng Zhan standing on one side, he yelled: "villain, don''t kneel down!"


    Deng Zhan had no choice but to kneel down.


    Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu stepped back to get out of the way. She looked puzzled and asked, "what does the old lady mean?"


    "I don''t know about it," Deng explained. "Just now, the old lady found that there was a noise outside the house. When she got up, she found that it was Deng Zhan, her youngest son, who had come back."


    "He came into the room, holding a dagger, and was prying the door of the prefect."


    "After the old lady stopped him, she took him to the room to ask, and learned that he had been ordered to assassinate Zhang Taishou."


    "The killing of Xiongnu by Zhang Taishou is praised by everyone."


    "Although the old lady doesn''t know a big word and doesn''t know poetry, her conscience is still there. But no one with conscience should come to assassinate Zhang Taishou, but my son should not assassinate Zhang Taishou for the sake of money. "


    Deng kowtowed his head to the ground and said, "Deng Zhan is guilty. The old lady is here. Please punish him."


    Deng Zhandao said: "Tai Shou Zhang, this is what I do alone. It has nothing to do with my mother."


    Zhang Xiu a listen, suddenly understand.


    Previously, it was Deng Zhan who pried the door.


    Later, when Deng heard the sound, he came out and called Deng Zhan away. When he asked about the situation, he brought Deng Zhan to make amends. Looking at Deng Zhan''s manner, we should be reluctant. It must be Deng''s demand.


    After Zhang Xiu thought clearly, she felt deeply about Deng''s family tradition.


    Although he is a rough man, he is simple and kind.


    It''s not easy.


    In troubled times, human nature has been lost and morality has been destroyed. However, it is not easy for Deng to be old, have principles, and uphold justice.


    Zhang Xiu said: "old lady, get up quickly. Mr. Deng, get up and talk. Now that it''s open, it''s nothing. This time I went south to Xiangyang, it was not smooth. It''s not unusual to be assassinated. "


    But Deng shook his head and said, "please allow the old lady a request, and the old lady will get up."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you say it!"


    Deng said: "please, old lady, take zhan''er. He said that he was in Xiangyang City, serving as a door guest for powerful people. It seems that he was acting for others by virtue of his martial arts skills. Zhang Tai Shou is a great hero and a good man. Please accept my son and give him a right path. "


    "This..."


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and looked strange.


    Which one is this?


    Deng Zhan came to assassinate him. Unexpectedly, he finally developed to this stage.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu didn''t agree immediately, Deng got anxious and said: "my son has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He is very good at gun dancing. His martial arts are very good, enough to serve as the guard of Zhang Taishou. I''d like to ask for Zhang''s kindness and give zhan''er a chance. Mr. Zhang, my son is very filial. No matter how bad a loyal and filial person is, he can''t be worse. Take him. "


    Looking at Deng Zhan, Zhang Xiu''s mind opened.


    Deng Zhan listened to her mother''s words, otherwise he would not have come to assassinate him, but he knelt down and apologized.


    Deng Zhan is indeed filial.


    As for Deng Zhan''s ability, Zhang Xiu didn''t know. He didn''t respond immediately. He said again, "old lady, if you have something to say, get up and talk first."


    Deng stubbornly shook his head, said: "if Zhang Taishou does not agree, the old lady will not get up."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "I''ve agreed to the old lady''s request. It''s just that if I want to, it depends on Mr. Deng''s opinion. As the saying goes, it''s hard to make a change. If Mr. Deng doesn''t want to, he won''t be able to follow me. What''s more, if you want to follow me, you will be subject to a lot of constraints and have to abide by various laws and regulations, which is unacceptable to many people. "


    "My son can accept it," Deng said


    She returned a word for Deng Zhan, then looked at Deng Zhan again and said, "zhan''er, thank you, Zhang Taishou."


    "I, I..."


    However, Deng Zhan hesitated.


    Anyway, he is a famous ranger in Xiangyang City. If you let him out, many people will follow him.


    It can be said that all kinds of responses are well received.


    But now, he is forced by my mother to submit to Zhang Xiu, and he is reluctant.


    Deng''s face sank down and said, "what are you doing? It''s a blessing for you to accept you. Do you dare to accept you? ""You go to Xiangyang for a few years, and your wings are hard. You don''t listen to your mother."


    "Good, very good!"


    "As a child, my mother will tell you to be an upright person. You see, now you have collected money to kill such a good man as Zhang Taishou. As soon as I think of it, my mother feels heartache. I knew I shouldn''t let you go far away. "


    With that, Deng''s tears came.


    When Deng Zhanyi saw this, he was immediately flustered and said: "mother, I''m willing to, I''m willing to follow Zhang Taizhou."


    Zhang Xiu is funny in her eyes.


    In front of the outside, Deng is warm-hearted, kind-hearted and very good. In the face of such officials as Liu Wang, he swallowed his anger and was unwilling to add trouble to his son.


    It''s her son''s turn to be strict, hoping that he can go on a good road.


    Everything is for my son.


    Hearing Deng Zhan''s words, Deng''s face brightened with joy and put away his tears: "since I have agreed, I will swear to prove it. In this life, you will follow Zhang Taishou to the death and never leave. If you break this oath, the whole family will not die well. "


    Deng Zhan''s face changed greatly, and the oath was too poisonous.


    But before he opened his mouth, he saw my mother''s eyes, which seemed to be full of tears. His heart suddenly softened. He raised his right hand and swore: "heaven is above, thick soil is below. I, Deng Zhan, swear to follow Zhang Taizhou all my life. If you break this oath, the whole family will not die well. "


    "Good, good!"


    Deng''s old face, showing a bright smile.


    Then she stood up.


    Deng Zhan then got up, looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Deng Zhan, I''d like to meet you."


    When Zhang Xiu saw Deng Zhan vow, she let her heart down. It''s just that he is happy to see Deng''s face, but Deng Zhan is very happy to see Deng''s face.


    He looked back and said, "Deng Zhan, since you are willing to surrender, I will accept you. Although, this is to see in your mother''s face, accepted you. But I hope you can show your ability. I don''t want to raise useless people. "


    Deng Zhan held his head high and said confidently: "Deng Zhan will live up to the great expectations of his master, and will let him see his ability."


    "I''ll see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    When he was thinking about Deng Zhan, he suddenly said, "Deng Zhan, where is your ancestral home?"


    He thought of Deng Zhan in history.


    Historically, Deng Zhan was born in Nanyang and a swordsman. He left a pen in the history books, which was a sword contest with Cao Pi, but he was easily defeated by Cao Pi.


    Deng Zhan looked respectful and replied, "I''m a humble native of Nanyang. After my father died, my mother brought my brother, sister and I to live here."


    Zhang Xiu laughed in her heart.


    Unexpectedly, he even accepted a historical celebrity.


    Although Deng Zhan does not have a strong sense of existence in history, he has his own unique features in leaving a legacy in history books.


    Deng stood aside and said, "zhan''er, who is going to assassinate Zhang Taishou?"


    Deng Zhan shook his head and replied, "we just collect money to do business. We don''t know who is the person who wants to kill Zhang Taishou? And this time I didn''t kill Zhang, I have to go back to Xiangyang to deal with it, otherwise it''s easy to leave trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m not worried about going to Xiangyang this time. You can go to Xiangyang first and deal with your own affairs well. When I leave Xiangyang, you will follow me north. "


    "Thank you


    Deng Zhan gave thanks.


    After hearing this, Deng said nothing more and left the room with Deng Zhan to let Zhang Xiu have a rest earlier.

 Chapter 123

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu got up early and went to the yard for morning exercise. Even though the weather is cold and the snow is flying, Zhang Xiu still does not forget to practice martial arts.


    Practice in summer and winter.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s insistence.


    A fist down, Zhang Xiu mouth exhaled heat, all warm, don''t feel any cold. After a slow walk, he came to the flat.


    Huang Yueying has got up and is helping Deng prepare the morning meal.


    In the morning, we eat porridge, pickles, and baked cakes.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and didn''t see Deng Zhan. She asked, "old lady, where''s Deng Zhan?"


    With a smile on his old cheek, Deng replied, "zhan''er got up early and left. He said that he would go back to Xiangyang to deal with some things first, and would not go south with the governor. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much.


    This is a good thing we said last night.


    After all, Deng Zhan is a knight errant. He has taken over the task this time, so he must go back and give an account.


    Soon the food was ready.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying are ready to leave for the South after eating breakfast.


    When he came to the door, he looked at Deng in the door and said, "old lady, when my trip to Xiangyang is over, Deng will follow me north to Nanyang County. It''s lonely for you to stay in the village alone. Why don''t you go north with me then. "


    "No, No."


    Deng shook his head one after another and said, "the old lady is not used to strange places. It''s good to live here. In this village, the old woman has lived all her life and doesn''t want to leave. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t give much advice. She said, "then pay attention to your health. If you have anything to do, please send a message to Nanyang County."


    "I know," said Deng


    Her heart to Zhang Xiu, already is incomparable respect. She lived most of her life and met some officials who were domineering and oppressive. She has never seen such an approachable official as Zhang Xiu, nor such a responsible official as Zhang Xiu.


    This is a good official.


    She was really happy for her son.


    Zhang Xiu no longer stays, takes Huang Yueying to leave, and goes straight to Xiangyang.


    It''s not far to Xiangyang.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying were slow on their way, but they arrived in Xiangyang City in less than three days.


    This road is very smooth.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Xiangyang City, Liu Biao also got the news.


    When Liu Biao learned that Zhang Xiu arrived in the city safely, he was so angry that he broke two vases one after another. His well maintained face was full of anger. He sent someone directly to invite Cai Mao to come, and immediately scolded him.


    After half a sound, Liu Biao''s anger was over, and then he asked, "Cai Mao, what''s the matter? I have asked you to arrange people to deal with Zhang Xiu. Why does Zhang Xiu appear in Xiangyang City


    Cai Mao did not explain, said: "despicable dereliction of duty, please punish the Lord."


    Liu Biao said angrily: "can punishment work? If we just punish you, we can let Zhang Xiu die. You have been punished thousands of times. "


    Cai Mao smiles bitterly.


    His heart, in fact, is also muddled. He had already informed the housekeeper to find someone to do it. But up to now, there is no news of the success of the assassination, Cai Mao has been waiting.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu quietly, first step to Xiangyang City.


    Cai Mao thought about it and said, "Lord, when Zhang Xiu comes to Xiangyang City, he can deal with him."


    "It''s late!"


    Liu Biao snorted, not happy.


    When Zhang Xiu has an accident in Xiangyang City, it''s easy to suspect Liu Biao, which will damage Liu Biao''s reputation.


    Cai Mao asked, "Lord, what should we do then?"


    Liu Biao said: "what else can we do? Step by step. Let''s see what happened when Zhang Xiu came to Xiangyang. "


    Cai Mao said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Biao said: "keep a close watch on Zhang Xiu. As soon as there is news, report it to the police."


    "Here it is


    Cai Mao turned and left.


    After Cai Mao left the prefecture, he hurried back to the prefecture. He called to the housekeeper of his family. First, he covered his head and scolded him, venting his depression. Then he asked, "what''s the matter? I want you to arrange someone to assassinate Zhang Xiu. Why did Zhang Xiu arrive in Xiangyang City, but he didn''t get any news?"


    The housekeeper bowed his head and explained: "master, Deng Zhan, who had previously accepted the task, gave up the task when he saw Zhang Xiu. The old slave is looking for another Ranger to carry out the task. In a hurry, no one has taken over the task. "


    "Why did Deng Zhan give up when he took over the task?" Cai Mao asked


    The housekeeper replied: "according to Deng Zhan''s answer, after he took the task, he saw Zhang Xiu, but he was impressed by Zhang Xiu''s bearing. He has already submitted to Zhang Xiu and will no longer be a Ranger."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Cai Mao''s face was full of anger.


    He said with a cold face: "first take the task, and then give up the task. When I''m in the Bodhisattva temple, can I come in if I want to, and leave if I want to? You go to mobilize rangers to kill Deng Zhan. You have to pay for betraying me. ""Here it is


    The housekeeper answered immediately.


    Cai Mao waved his hand and said, "go


    The housekeeper respectfully stepped down and arranged to kill Deng Zhan.


    ¡­¡­


    In the city, Huang family.


    A carriage came slowly and finally stopped at the gate.


    The curtain of the carriage door is lifted, and Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying join hands. As soon as the porter saw Huang Yueying, he was overjoyed. Then he flew to the mansion and spread the news of Huang Yueying''s return.


    In an instant, the house became lively.


    Huang Chengyan got the news, but also quickly out.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying went south together, and Huang Yueying came back, which means that Zhang Xiu also came. When Huang Chengyan came out of the backyard, Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying had already arrived in the hall.


    When Huang Chengyan entered the hall, Zhang Xiu quickly got up and saluted: "Mr. Huang!"


    Huang Yueying said, "Dad!"


    Huang Chengyan stroked his beard with a smile, nodded his head and said, "Yueying, your mother misses you very much. Go to the backyard and have a talk with her."


    "Well!"


    Huang Yueying went straight to the back yard.


    Before leaving, she took a look at Zhang Xiu, as if she didn''t trust her.


    Zhang Xiu cast her reassuring eyes, and her eyes immediately fell on Huang Chengyan''s body. Her expression was calm and had a certain bearing. Today''s Zhang Xiu has changed from the time he went to Xiangyang. He is already the prefect of Nanyang County appointed by the imperial court.


    This is also a big official.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "Mr. Huang, when I was in Yuyang County, I once said that when I became the prefect of a county, I went south to propose marriage. Now I''m the prefect of Nanyang County appointed by the imperial court. I''ll fulfill the agreement. "


    "What are you going to do?" Huang said


    Zhang Xiu said: "my parents have already passed away, and my only uncle has also passed away. As the saying goes, "one day as a teacher, one life as a father, my marriage affairs, of course, is to ask the teacher to do it."


    "Yes!"


    Huang Chengyan has no opinion either.


    Pang Degong was the leader of Jingzhou''s scholars. He was the leader of Jingzhou''s scholars, and the Huang family also had face.


    Huang Chengyan said, "I''ll arrange for you to invite Mr. pang to your house."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t know much about marriage, so she gave it to Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan.


    After talking about the marriage promotion, Zhang Xiu digs off the topic and says that she was assassinated when she went down to Xiangyang. She says, "Liu Biao may have arranged for me to be assassinated after I entered Xiangyang. Now I''m the prefect of Nanyang. Liu Biao wants to get rid of me. On this premise, will it bring trouble to the Huang family if I marry Yueying? "


    "No trouble!"


    Huang Chengyan confidently said: "my Huang family is not a small family. In particular, with the advent of rice paper and quyuanli, Huang Jianing''s strength was much stronger than before. Liu Biao didn''t have the courage to move the Huang family. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu is worried about Liu Biao''s mess.

 Chapter 124

    Huang Chengyan saw that although Zhang Xiu should go down, he still had a little worry and said: "Jiang Ping''s worry is totally unnecessary. If I give you a piece of news, you won''t worry. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Huang Chengyan replied, "Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia, is my brother and a member of the Huang family. The previous relationship between the two sides, though occasional, is also common. "


    "After all, Huang Zu was in a high position, but I didn''t become an official."


    "Since the advent of Xuan paper, Huang''s family has been fighting for gold, and his power has expanded rapidly. Huang has also sent people to contact him one after another to transport Xuan paper to Jiangxia County for sale. Now Xuan paper has gone to Jiangxia County, and it''s completely popular. "


    "The relationship between the two families is closer."


    "With Huang Zu as the backing, Liu Biao did not dare to act rashly. Otherwise, Liu Biao will not be able to bear the consequences of any mistakes in Jiang Xia. "


    On Huang Chengyan''s face, his expression was firm.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was completely relieved.


    Huang Zu is an important official of Liu Biao. He controls Jiangxia County, which is the gateway to the east of Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m relieved."


    Huang Chengyan gently smile, quite complacent. During this period of time, he can be described as complacent, horseshoe urgent, very happy. When it comes to Xuan paper, Huang Chengyan is very happy.


    Compared with the Quyuan plow made before, Xuan paper has a great influence.


    The Quyuan plow is used by farmers.


    Xuan paper is used by literati.


    And the amount of use is enormous.


    The rice paper made by Huang family is a giant in Jingzhou. Whether it''s your own strength or fame, it can''t be easily shaken.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu had a bright smile.


    If rice paper is sold well, he will get more money and will not have any financial difficulties.


    They were chatting, but time went by. Towards noon, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, but Lord pound came. He came to Huang''s house from lumen mountain in a hurry in the cold and snowstorm.


    Zhang Xiu got up and said, "teacher!"


    Pound said: "Jiang Ping is back. I''ve heard all about you in the north. You''re very good."


    Zhang xiudao said: "the teacher is wrong."


    When Pang Degong was seated, Huang Chengyan opened the door and said, "Pang Gong, I''m here for Jiang Ping''s marriage. When Jiang Ping''s parents died, you are the only elder. So what Jiang Ping means is to ask you to take care of his marriage. "


    "No problem."


    Pound answered with a light smile.


    Pang Degong was also an acute man. He immediately discussed with Huang Chengyan. He was very familiar with the etiquette of getting married.


    Zhang Xiu became a spectator.


    In the whole process, without saying a word, he sat quietly and watched Mr. pound and Mr. Huang discuss their marriage.


    Half an hour later, everything was settled.


    At this time, Mr. pound said, "Jiang Ping, as for the place where you get married, I suggest it be held in lumen mountain. On the one hand, it''s close to the Huang family, so it''s easy to get married; on the other hand, it''s safe in lumen mountain, so even if there are many people coming, there''s no need to worry. Most importantly, we can use this to test Liu Biao''s attitude towards you. "


    Zhang xiudao: "according to the teacher''s arrangement."


    Originally, Zhang Xiu worried about Liu Biao jumping over the wall, but Huang''s family was huge and powerful, so he didn''t worry at all.


    Just be careful.


    Huang Chengyan saw Zhang Xiu''s cheerful response, and his face also showed a smile.


    Without much delay or even lunch, pound left the Huang family in a hurry to prepare for the wedding.


    There are many procedures to get married.


    Such as natzer, Wenming, Naji and so on, they all need to be properly arranged one by one, which needs Lord pound to handle.


    Huang Chengyan is an acute, Zhang Xiu is about to marry Huang Yueying things, directly announced out.


    The news was like thunder.


    People in Xiangyang City soon knew that Zhang Xiu was going to marry Huang Yueying, the apple of the yellow family.


    Liu Biao learned the news, but his heart sank.


    The strength of the Huang family is already huge.


    There is Huang Chengyan active management, countless wealth, high reputation, can be said to be a rich country. There is Huang Zu sitting outside Zhenjiang Xia County, strong strength. In addition, Jingzhou''s major families are intertwined and connected, so it is almost impossible to move the Huang family.


    The marriage of Zhang Xiu and Huang Jia made Liu Biao in trouble.


    Liu Biao was anxious, so he sent someone to invite Cai Mao and Kuai Yue. He quickly told Zhang Xiu about marrying Huang Yueying, and said: "it''s a certainty that Zhang Xiu will become Huang''s son-in-law. What''s your attitude to Zhang Xiu? "


    Cai Mao frowned.


    The Cai family and the Huang family are also related by marriage.


    Cai Mao dotes on Huang Yueying and likes her very much. But Zhang Xiu once captured him and made him lose face. From his point of view, it''s embarrassing to face this.Kuai Yue''s expression was calm, and he didn''t have any anxiety, because Kuai''s family had already submitted to Zhang Xiu secretly.


    It''s just, it''s not on the table.


    When Kuai Yue heard Liu Biao''s words, he thought for a moment and said: "Zhang Xiu''s general trend has become very difficult to deal with. With the help of the Huang family, the general trend has been achieved. The battle between the Lord and Zhang Xiu is a battle between the tiger and the wolf. They can only lose both sides. In my humble opinion, it''s better to form an ally and keep watch and help each other. "


    Cai Mao wanted to retort conditionally, but he swallowed his words.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is for Huang Yueying.


    It''s also aimed at the Huang family.


    Liu Biao looked at Cai Mao and asked, "De Li, what do you think?"


    Cai Mao said, "my Lord, I can''t help being humble. With Huang''s family and Zhang Xiu''s disciple, it''s not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu. I agree with Kuai Yue''s suggestion. At present, I can only ease the relationship with Zhang Xiu. "


    After listening to Liu Biao, his face faltered.


    His two henchmen tend to seek peace. Even if he is not willing, there is no way.


    Liu Biao was a little impatient, and said, "it''s all right. You can step back. Let me think again about how to face Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Kuai Yue and Cai Mao retired together.


    They came and went in a hurry. Kuai Yue walked out of the prefecture and looked at Cai Mao. He said faintly, "Cai De Li, I have a few words. I don''t know if you are willing to listen to them."


    Cai Mao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Kuai Yue said: "in fact, it''s not a shame that you were captured by Zhang Xiu. It''s all in the past. There''s no need to worry about it. "


    "Today, the general trend of Zhang Xiu has become a reality."


    "After Zhang Xiu married Huang Yueying, she got the support of the Huang family and the help of the Pang family, which made her stronger."


    "It''s not easy to deal with."


    Kuai Yue said: "of course, these have nothing to do with you, but put aside these external factors, when it comes to intimacy, you are not inferior to anyone. Because you are Huang Yueying''s uncle, and you are also Zhang Xiu''s uncle. "


    "It''s a bond."


    "You are the head of the Cai family. You are respected by the Lord. You are also related to Zhang Xiu by marriage. With this prerequisite, you can please both sides. Why do you always aim at Zhang Xiu?"


    Kuai Yue said: "if I were you, I would be a peacemaker and make friends at both ends. No matter which side has the advantage, you can get benefits. Why be a nuisance? "


    Cai Mao''s eyebrows rose and he was surprised.


    All of a sudden, he felt like he was in a daze. The whole person suddenly realized that the fog was gone.


    In front of my eyes, it''s open.


    Cai Mao really has a bad heart for being Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. He was willing to let go of his personal feud and pursue the interests of the Cai family.


    Cai Mao took a deep breath, arched his hand and said, "thank you for your reminding."


    "Goodbye!"


    Kuai Yue bowed back, lifted up his robe and left the carriage.


    Cai Mao, dressed in a fox skin cloak, stood in the snow, looking at Kuai Yue''s back and thinking. After a long time, he began to smile at the corner of his mouth, and then he got on the carriage and left.

 Chapter 125

    In the study, Liu Biao looks thoughtful.


    How to treat Zhang Xiu, this scale Liu Biao has not grasped.


    Kuai Yue didn''t want things to get big inside and outside, but he wanted to make peace and resolve conflicts, and Cai Mao didn''t speak. Liu Biao is very clear that people are not willing to fight. Even he himself does not want to fight.


    But Yi Ji died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, and Wei Yan died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao lost his face at the expense of his troops. He couldn''t swallow the evil spirit in his heart.


    But he couldn''t get revenge.


    He could not mobilize the army on a large scale to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    This is Liu Biao''s dilemma.


    He can''t advance or retreat.


    "Dong! Dong


    Outside the study, there was a knock on the door.


    A beautiful figure entered the room. In his early thirties, he was gorgeous in clothes, charming in appearance, with a faint smile between his eyebrows and eyes. He was like a ripe fruit, and his charming breath made his eyes shine.


    This is no one else.


    He is Liu Biao''s wife CAI.


    She is Liu Biao''s sequel and Cai Mao''s second sister.


    When Liu Biao saw Cai''s coming in, a smile appeared on his old face. He asked, "what''s the matter with madam?"


    Cai took the soup to Liu Biao, put the chicken soup on the table, and said: "in cold weather, it''s easy to be attacked by wind and cold. I specially boiled chicken soup to dispel the chill for my husband. It''s freezing. Pay more attention. It''s the so-called harvest in autumn and storage in winter. In winter, we need to mend our body. "


    "Madame, it''s hard work."


    Liu Biao picked up the spoon and took a sip of chicken soup.


    Chicken soup is stewed slowly over low heat. Chicken is an old hen. It tastes delicious after long time cooking.


    On a cold day, a mouthful of chicken soup warmed the whole body.


    Liu Biao soon finished the whole bowl of chicken soup and said with emotion: "madam, the skill of stewing chicken soup is becoming more and more proficient. After drinking this bowl of chicken soup from my wife, all my worries are gone. "


    Chua asked with a smile, "what worries my husband? Let''s talk about it. I''m a woman. I can''t give any advice to my husband, but I can always be an audience for him to talk to, so that he won''t feel uncomfortable. "


    Liu wiped his chin slowly and said, "it''s not a big thing. When Zhang Xiu arrives in Xiangyang, she will marry Yueying. Alas, now Zhang Xiu''s strength is gradually increasing, and I don''t know how to face her. "


    After pondering for a moment, Cai said with a light smile, "I don''t understand the affairs of my husband and Zhang Xiu in government affairs. What I can understand is that my husband and the Huang family are close and integrated. "


    "At my father''s knee, two daughters and one son."


    "The eldest sister married Huang Chengyan, and only Yueying was her daughter."


    "I will marry my husband."


    "When it comes to relationships, Yueying is also her husband''s niece. In front of her husband, Yueying should call you uncle. When Zhang Xiu marries Yue Ying, he has to follow her and call her uncle. "


    "Think about it. It''s a family."


    Cai went to Liu Biao''s back, held his shoulder for Liu Biao, and continued: "what''s the dilemma between the whole family, if you don''t look up and look down? In my opinion, it''s not a big deal. "


    "You, woman''s view."


    When Liu Biao heard Cai''s words, he suddenly laughed.


    It''s depressive. It''s a lot more comfortable.


    Chua said with a light smile, "I am a woman. I have little knowledge. I''ll make my husband laugh."


    Liu Biao raised his hand, patted the back of CAI''s hand, and said slowly, "this man is involved in power. Even family ties may not work. Zhang Xiu was appointed by the imperial court as the prefect of Nanyang County. Her official position was not low, and she had her own strength. Under such circumstances, even if she was willing to admit her relatives, Zhang Xiu might not be willing to. Can''t say that Zhang Xiu''s heart is still thinking about annexing Jingzhou? "


    "It''s impossible," Cai said


    Liu Biao said, "why not?"


    Cai said: "my husband is wise and powerful, and there are many talents under his command. Jingzhou up and down, only serve a husband. Zhang Xiu is a young man. How can he capture Jingzhou? He has no such ability. "


    Liu Biao said, "you underestimate this person. Zhang Xiu is not a simple person. She is very powerful. "


    Cai Shi way: "again how not simple, also be the younger generation of husband."


    Liu Biao shook his head and chuckled.


    But he thought, but his heart was gradually open.


    Junior!


    Zhang Xiu became his younger generation.


    This is a key!


    He is really worried about Zhang Xiu''s backfire, but after Zhang Xiu marries Huang Yueying, he is his younger generation. As long as Liu Biao publicizes it, and then establishes an image of trusting and valuing Zhang Xiu, under such an ethical relationship, Zhang Xiu''s attack on Jingzhou is tantamount to treachery and self destruction.


    People who even kill their own uncles are not worth serving.


    This is Liu Biao''s idea,Liu Biao himself has a good reputation. He thinks that reputation is important and that reputation and virtue are enough to restrain a person''s behavior. So he had a preconceived idea that Zhang Xiu would be bound by morality and influenced by reputation.


    Liu Biao said with a smile: "my wife is really my lucky star. My wife''s words make me understand things."


    "Somebody


    Liu Biao gave an order.


    After Liu Biao gave the order, a servant came in. Liu Biao said, "go to Huang''s house, inform Huang chengyanfu and Zhang Xiu, and let them come to zhoumu Prefecture in the evening. I''ll hold a banquet for Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    He turned and stepped down.


    Cai said, "husband, is this a family dinner?"


    "Of course


    Liu Biao replied with a smile.


    He set up a family banquet, is to close the relationship with Zhang Xiu, try the style of Zhang Xiu, ready to form an alliance with Zhang Xiu, promote the alliance between the two sides.


    Cai said: "since it''s a family dinner, why don''t you invite Deyu? Otherwise, I''m afraid that when things get out, De Li will be unhappy and think that her husband dislikes him. "


    Liu Biao said: "madam, it''s reasonable. Since it''s a family dinner, we have to arrange an invitation for De Li."


    Cai Shi way: "concubine body comes to arrange."


    "Good!"


    Liu Biao should go down directly.


    Cai didn''t stay much. After leaving the study with an empty bowl, he called out his confidants and asked them to go to Cai''s house to tell Cai Mao about the banquet in the evening and let Cai Mao go to the banquet on time.


    When Cai Mao got the news from CAI, he knew that Liu Biao was going to make peace with Zhang Xiu, and he was determined.


    He has figured it out.


    Now that he is about to become an in laws with Zhang Xiu, he will not pursue the past. He just wants to get more benefits. In today''s situation, whether it is Zhang Xiu or Liu Biao, he is indispensable for any party to get benefits.


    He has a relationship with both sides.


    Cai Mao thought about it and arranged for someone to go to Huang''s house to tell Huang Chengyan about Liu Biao''s preparation for peace.


    To tell Huang Chengyan is to tell Zhang Xiu.


    When Huang Chengyan told Zhang Xiu the news, Zhang Xiu was surprised. He had a little bit of worry, but the Huang family is powerful. He didn''t think Liu Biao would jump over the wall in a hurry.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Biao asked for peace.


    This is the best for Zhang Xiu.


    At present, Zhang Xiu has just established herself in Nanyang County, and she does not have enough time and energy to deal with Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is to go north first.


    Therefore, Liu Biao''s active release of goodwill, Zhang Xiu is happy to see its success.


    Time goes by, evening.


    Zhang Xiu, Huang Chengyan, and Huang Yueying''s mother and daughter left Huang''s house in a carriage and went to the prefecture. It was dark when they arrived at the prefecture.


    The cold wind is very uncomfortable.


    "Go, enter the house."


    Huang Chengyan looked up at the eye Prefecture, but there was no burden, with a family straight into.

 Chapter 126

    Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan enter the hall together. He has no fear of Liu Biao. In his eyes, Liu Biao is a paper tiger. He looks majestic and powerful, but in fact he is a sick cat.


    Into the hall, there is a warm head-on hit.


    In the hall, there is a brazier for heating.


    Inside and outside the hall, there are two extreme worlds, one is warm and comfortable, the other is cold and piercing.


    Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu took off their cloaks and sat down on the table. As for Huang Yueying and her mother, they did not attend. Instead, under the guidance of the attendants, they went to the back yard to find CAI.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Liu Biao in the main position. At this time, Liu Biao is also looking at him.


    Zhang Xiu responded with a light smile, with a relaxed look.


    Liu Biao stroked his beard under his jaw and said on his own initiative: "it''s a family dinner tonight. Besides you, there will be another one later."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "who is it?"


    He took the message on purpose and stepped down for Liu Biao. After receiving the news from Cai Mao, Zhang Xiu knows that Liu Biao intends to resolve the conflict, so she won''t speak any more.


    At this time, it is good for both sides to maintain a temporary peace by giving Liu a step down.


    Zhang Xiu needs such a transition.


    Liu Biao saw that Zhang Xiu took the initiative to answer, and he was also relieved.


    What worries him most is Zhang Xiu''s defiance.


    The most common fault of young people is that they are rebellious, self righteous and arrogant. In particular, after Zhang Xiu established herself in Nanyang County, she killed Gong Du and Liu PI, destroyed the Deng family, successively won the victory, and killed two thousand Huns, which won numerous praises.


    Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu easily developed the character of "heaven, earth and air". She easily thought that Lao Tzu was invincible and the best in the world. She ignored everyone.


    Fortunately, Zhang Xiu did not.


    Liu Biao''s tone was soft, and he said slowly, "the man who came here is Cai Mao. In fact, he is your uncle. You are going to marry Yueying, and Cai Mao is also a family


    Zhang Xiu suddenly came across.


    He didn''t know much about family dinner before.


    Now when I hear Liu Biao''s words, I can understand them completely with a little thought. Liu Biao, Cai Mao and Huang Chengyan are close relatives.


    Liu Biao called Cai Mao, but also to turn the war into jade.


    When I was in Xiuyang County, my uncle and I were together. Well, he''s very nice. "


    Liu''s face was stiff.


    He thought that Zhang Xiu captured Cai Mao because Cai Mao was hostile to Zhang Xiu, and the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Cai Mao must be very general. Under such a premise, he proposed that Cai Mao was Zhang Xiu''s uncle, and Zhang Xiu would be embarrassed.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu said that Cai Mao was very good.


    This left Liu Biao speechless.


    It seems to be praise, but the words are neither humble nor overbearing, and there is a hint of irony.


    He is very difficult to answer.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of footwork came from outside the hall.


    Then Cai Mao entered.


    He took off his cloak and gave it to the attendant. He rubbed his cold hands and strode into the hall to salute Huang Chengyan and Liu Biao. Because it was said in advance that it was a family dinner, and among the people, Huang Chengyan was the biggest. He married the eldest daughter of the Cai family.


    Therefore, Cai Mao saluted Huang Chengyan.


    When Cai Mao sat down and looked at Zhang Xiu, he had a complicated look in his eyes, and immediately he had a smile on his rough face. Now that he has decided, he has no hesitation.


    Cai Mao knows how to face Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao doesn''t know what Cai Mao thinks. He still thinks that Cai Mao is definitely hostile to Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Liu Biao came to be a peacemaker.


    With high spirits, he took the initiative to say: "De Li, Zhang Xiu is going to marry Yue Ying. When it comes to relationships, that''s your nephew. He''s family with us. "


    "He is your junior."


    "Although once, no matter you, or me, and Zhang Xiu had some bumps. But now that we have become a family, the past gratitude and resentment will be regarded as smoke and dispersed with the wind. "


    "In the future, we will be a family. We should work together and cooperate sincerely."


    Liu Biao, with a sincere expression, said: "De Li, it''s from my heart. What do you think?"


    Cai Mao said, "my elder brother is right."


    He had a decision in his mind.


    So, I took advantage of the situation.


    Liu Biao''s eyes turned to Zhang Xiu and continued: "Zhang Xiu, what do you think?"


    Huang Chengyan said: "elder brother, just call Zhang Xiu''s character" Jiang Ping. ". After all, it''s a family. There''s no need to be so unfamiliar. "


    Both Huang Chengyan and Cai Mao call Liu Biao "big brother.".


    After all, Liu Biao is the oldest.


    Liu Biao nodded, his eyes still fell on Zhang Xiu. At the moment, he is actually testing Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu is willing to put aside the contradiction with CAI Mao, it will be easy for Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu to form an alliance.


    If the contradiction between Zhang Xiu and Cai Mao is still not willing to let go, it will not be easy for Liu Biao to form an alliance with Zhang Xiu, and even Zhang Xiu will covet Jingzhou.Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    Liu Biao couldn''t hide his thoughts from him.


    Zhang xiudao said: "my uncle has a point. After all, he is a family. As the saying goes, "a family doesn''t talk about two families. The past is the past. There''s no need to talk about it."


    An uncle, Liu biaoxi smiles.


    Liu Biao was very satisfied, nodded: "Jiang Ping said well, I am very pleased."


    "Now that I''m a family, I don''t want to hide my words, I''ll just say them. I''m very glad that you are the governor of Nanyang County. After all, I can rest assured that my family is in charge of Nanyang County. "


    "You can settle down in Nanyang County. I will never interfere."


    Liu Biao assured: "even if it''s where I can help you, just open your mouth."


    Zhang Xiu understands that this is Liu Biao''s backing.


    It''s attitude.


    This is not willing to be his enemy.


    Zhang Xiu also wanted to stabilize Liu Biao and said: "what my uncle said is reasonable. As the prefect of Nanyang County, I will abide by the law and discipline, and there will be no transgression. But I do have something here that I need my uncle''s help? "


    Liu Biao''s expression suddenly froze.


    He looked a little uncomfortable.


    He and Zhang Xiu to resolve the conflict, although to make an alliance, but in fact, just talk about to help Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao didn''t want to let him help Zhang Xiu with money and food.


    After all, Zhang Xiu may go south.


    But Zhang Xiu said it.


    It''s embarrassing.


    Liu Biao responded quickly and asked, "if you have any problems, just say it. As long as I can help you, I will try my best to help you. If I can''t help you, I will try my best to find someone to solve it for you. "


    The words are beautiful, but they leave Liu Biao a way out.


    There is nothing he can do.


    Shirking won''t help.


    Zhang Xiu gently a smile, the right color way: "uncle, the thing is like this. In the successive wars last year, Yuyang County consumed a lot of grain. The number of troops under my command has increased and there are some difficulties in food supply. "


    "Of course, there is some grain stored last year. If there is no big action in the coming year, there will be enough."


    "It''s just that I''ve made plans. After the Spring Festival, I''m ready to send troops to the north and go back to Guanzhong. Because there will be war again, the grain stored is not enough, so I hope my uncle can borrow some for the time being. "


    "After the autumn harvest, I''ll return it to my uncle."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and put forward the requirements.


    He revealed that the plan was to stabilize Liu Biao and let him know that he had no idea about Jingzhou. Under such a premise, Liu Biao will not be hostile to him, will not hinder him, and will even help him.


    After listening to Liu Biao, his face was also full of smiles.


    Zhang Xiu, how are you going to Guanzhong!


    When Zhang Xiu goes to Guanzhong, he can take back Nanyang County.


    This is an opportunity!


    Moreover, if Zhang Xiu wants to go to Guanzhong, he will not covet Jingzhou any more, and he has no problem in subsidizing Zhang Xiu. The most important thing is that even if Zhang Xiu can''t win Guanzhong, after fighting with the Xiliang army in Guanzhong, her strength will definitely be weakened.


    At that time, it is impossible to covet Jingzhou.


    As long as Zhang Xiu goes north, no matter what, Liu Biao has no threat.


    For a moment, Liu Biao was in full bloom.


    His heart is very grateful to CAI. Thanks to Cai''s comfort, he made up his mind to seek peace and alliance. Then he called Zhang Xiu, Huang Chengyan and others to the banquet and learned what Zhang Xiu thought.


    Liu Biao had been in Jingzhou for many years, but he did not encounter much war. There was plenty of grain in his granary.


    He was happy at the moment, so he said: "Jiang Ping wants to go north to Guanzhong. I will give my full support. After the spring of next year, I will support you to use 100000 stone grain for the time being. If the follow-up is not enough, I will allocate some more grain. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "thank you, uncle!"

 Chapter 127

    Huang Chengyan sat on one side, watching and not talking all the time, but his face was quite complacent.


    In particular, in a few words, Zhang Xiu coaxed Liu Biao, made Liu Biao smile and be alert. Even without much effort, she got 100000 tons of grain from Liu Biao, which was even more praised.


    That''s a good boy.


    He is even more proud.


    His vision is not bad.


    Liu Biao turned his words and said, "Chengyan, when is the wedding date of Jiangping and Yueying?"


    Now he is relieved to see Zhang Xiu.


    Although Yi Ji and Wei Yan are subordinates, they are not relatives after all.


    Zhang Xiu is not only his in laws, but also no threat to Jingzhou, so he is relaxed.


    Huang Chengyan looked calm and said, "it''s not settled yet, but it''s just what happened these days. Pang Gong is in charge of Jiang Ping''s marriage. He will arrange the engagement and other matters. "


    "In the near future?"


    Liu Biao asked again.


    "Yes


    Huang Chengyan answered immediately.


    The atmosphere of chatting begins to relax. When the interests of both parties are not involved, the relationship between the two sides is the most harmonious.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, there are footsteps coming from outside.


    But two handsome youths came in from the hall.


    These two people are similar to Liu Biao.


    The first one, who is about the same age as Zhang Xiu, is Liu Qi, the eldest son of Liu Biao. He has a soft face and is not a strong and overbearing person. The other is a little younger and looks more like Liu Biao than Liu Qi, about 17 or 18 years old.


    This is Liu Cong, the second son of Liu Biao.


    Compared with Liu Qi, Liu Cong looks more smart, not as honest as Liu Qi.


    Both of them are the legitimate sons of Liu Biao.


    "I''ve seen my father!"


    Liu Qi and Liu Cong saluted Liu Biao at the same time.


    After that, they saluted Huang Chengyan and Cai Mao with respect.


    They also know Zhang Xiu.


    Last time when Zhang Xiu came to Xiangyang, they sat down at the end of the dinner party and saw Zhang Xiu''s eloquence.


    Both brothers are hostile to Zhang Xiu.


    Because it was hostile before.


    No matter Liu Qi or Liu Cong, they don''t know that just now, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu are fighting each other.


    After they were seated, Liu Biao introduced Zhang Xiu to Liu Qi and Liu Cong, and then said, "Jiang Ping is going to marry Yue Ying, which is your elder brother. In the future, you two brothers will serve Jiang Ping as brothers. "


    "Yes


    The two brothers should go down together.


    With hostility in her eyes, Liu Qi sat upright and said, "brother Jiangping is going to marry Yueying. It''s a great joy for me in Jingzhou. It''s just that Yueying, the girl of Zhong Tiandi, is very smart, talented and polite


    "Such a woman must be a great hero to marry."


    "I just don''t know if brother Jiang Ping can be such a hero?"


    Liu Qi threw out the words.


    Brush!


    Liu''s face changed slightly.


    He frowned down and glared at Liu Qi fiercely.


    This boy is really not open-minded. He even provokes Zhang Xiu at this time. But he thought, because before and between Zhang Xiu, is really very bad.


    Liu Qi''s aim at Zhang Xiu is also reasonable.


    Liu Biao didn''t blame him. He specially explained: "Qi''er, Jiang Ping married Yueying, and we are relatives. Between relatives, regardless of the past, we should respect each other. You have to respect your brother, do you understand? "


    "Son, I understand!"


    Liu Qi was a little surprised. Why did Liu Biao change his attitude so much.


    Liu Cong sat under Liu Qi, his big black eyes blinking and thinking. His eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He didn''t care about Liu Biao and said, "brother Jiangping, you haven''t answered up to now. Are you a great hero?"


    When Liu Biao heard it, he couldn''t breathe.


    What a fool!


    Blame him just taught his eldest son Liu Qi, did not expect Liu Cong to speak again.


    This son of a bitch!


    It''s a mess!


    Liu Biao has just said that he can''t speak any more, so he doesn''t speak any more. Instead, he looks at Zhang Xiu and throws an apologetic look.


    Zhang Xiu smiles gently.


    It''s not a problem for him.


    Zhang Xiu eyes a turn, in the heart immediately had an idea, said: "Qi younger brother and Cong younger brother, all asked the same question, that is I Zhang Xiu, whether is a hero."


    "Well, there''s a problem."


    "How to judge a great hero."


    "Or, in your opinion, what kind of person is a great hero?"Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s talk about your judgment first, and then I''ll answer it no later."


    Liu Cong raised his head and said, "I think the great hero is like brother Kong Ming. He took Guan Zhong and Yue Yi as his goal, Kuang Fu as his duty, and reviving the Han Dynasty as his lifelong ambition. That''s the hero. "


    Zhang Xiu smile in the heart, but also understand, I''m afraid Liu Cong and Zhuge Liang''s relationship is good.


    Otherwise, Liu Cong will not take the initiative.


    Zhang Xiu is silent, once again way: "Qi younger brother, how do you think?"


    Liu Qi said: "I also think that people like Kong Ming who have great ambition, great spirit and great mind are the real heroes. If you stay at home, you can know what''s going on in the world, you can devise strategies and be a great hero. "


    Zhang Xiu is more determined.


    Zhuge Liang''s relationship with Liu Qi and Liu Cong must be good. Both of them must know that Huang Chengyan intended to call Zhuge Liang as his son-in-law at the beginning, and even Zhuge Liang himself had some ideas.


    But in the end, he was cut off by Zhang Xiu.


    In such a case, Liu Qi and Liu Cong''s inquiry is intended to set obstacles for Zhang Xiu.


    It was done on purpose.


    Liu Biao did not open his mouth to defend Zhang Xiu, but looked at her quietly.


    Cai Mao also looked at Zhang Xiu. He wanted to think about how Zhang Xiu would answer this question.


    He is happy to see it.


    This kind of inquiry, let Liu Qi and Liu Cong, is harmless, after all, are children. In the same way, Liu Biao or Cai Mao would be tantamount to provocation.


    Therefore, Liu Biao and Cai Mao are not in a hurry.


    All eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "in my opinion, the great hero is not boasting, not comparing himself with Guan Zhong and Yue Yi, not saying anything orally, but someone who can really carry out what he is doing and benefit countless people."


    "Let me ask you a question. When the Huns were killed, no one went to meet them. Many Jingzhou officials fled. I lead the troops to attack, kill huchuquan and kill 2000 Huns. Can I be regarded as a great hero? "


    Zhang Xiu raised a question.


    Liu Qi''s face changed when he heard the speech.


    They knew about Zhang Xiu''s killing Xiongnu people, and they admired her more.


    They also admire such people.


    Liu Qi Na said: "it''s a great hero!"


    Liu Qi''s temperament is a little modest, not a good at sophistry, he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, can only truthfully answer.


    Liu Cong clenched his teeth and said, "it''s a great hero!"


    He can''t object either.


    After all, the question of killing the Huns, no matter who asked, was the same answer.


    With a faint smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu once again said, "ZHUGE Liang in your mouth takes the world as his own responsibility and wants to benefit the common people. He is more ambitious than Guan Zhong and Yue Yi in helping the world. Then, when I issued the order to enlist all the heroes in the world to fight against the Huns with me, did Zhuge Liang ever come forward? "


    "Brush!"


    Liu Qi and Liu Cong immediately changed their faces.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are like hitting a snake and seven inches, hitting Liu Qi and Liu Cong''s weakness. Two people face Zhang Xiu''s question, for a time, don''t know how to answer.


    Liu Biao sighed in his heart.


    If so.


    Zhang Xiu is really powerful, his counterattack is too clever.


    Zhang Xiu is really good.


    Cai Mao also shook his head, just Liu Qi and Liu Cong two children, want to embarrass Zhang Xiu, that is impossible. Even people like Yi Ji and Li Heng are defeated by Zhang Xiu, not to mention Liu Qi and Liu Cong.


    The gap is too big.

 Chapter 128

    Zhang Xiu got the upper hand. She was not aggressive, and her tone was indifferent. She continued: "I''m afraid some people will not accept my explanation just now. They say that the territory occupied by the Huns is under Zhang Xiu''s rule. If I don''t resist, who will? Right


    Liu Cong said: "you have self-knowledge!"


    He stemmed his neck, a pair of you Zhang Xiu is also a wise expression. Where can he think of that? It''s just that Zhang Xiu said so. Naturally, he went down.


    Zhang Xiu said solemnly: "Nanyang County is really under my rule. I should resist it. But is it one thing to dare to meet the Huns? Whether the Huns can be completely annihilated is another matter. I not only dare to fight the Huns, but also can annihilate them. None of the Huns who came to Nanyang County escaped and died in Wan county. I can be regarded as a great hero. "


    Liu Cong was dumb.


    It''s all around the Huns. What can he do?


    Liu Cong was also quick witted. He raised his head and said, "hum, even if you beat the Huns and win. But do you have the ambition of brother Kong Ming? "


    "Where is your ambition?"


    Zhang Xiu disdains to say: "I stay at home all day, but I don''t want to be an official to benefit the people. I still say that I compare myself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi. I don''t disdain people who want to help the world but don''t take action."


    "In my opinion, such a boastful person can''t even compare with a small county magistrate or county magistrate. The county magistrate and the county prime minister still govern one side, protect the territory and pacify the people. "


    "Did he do anything?"


    "Nothing


    Zhang Xiu said: "in the short time when I arrived in Nanyang County, I punished the corrupt officials, dealt with the treacherous people, and made the people live and work in peace and contentment."


    "In my opinion, no matter what your ambition is, it''s always the attic in the air. A man who can be down-to-earth and pragmatic and work for the welfare of the people is the real hero. "


    "They try their best to serve the people."


    "They are heroes!"


    "Although many people can''t remember them, they are great heroes and unsung heroes."


    "Don''t do evil small, don''t do good small and don''t do it."


    "Great heroes have great ambitions, but they can''t be reluctant to become officials just because their starting point is low."


    Zhang Xiu''s words became sharper and sharper. She said, "brother Qi and brother Cong, do you think what I said just now is reasonable?"


    "Gudong!"


    Liu Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, he found that he had no room to refute. He was even more glad that Liu Cong was not the one who asked back just now.


    Liu Cong''s cheek twitched and hummed, and he stopped talking.


    It''s true that you can''t win!


    Liu Biao sighed when he saw that his two sons had no fighting power and were not Zhang Xiu''s opponents. He just took the talk and said with a smile: "Jiang Ping, Liu Qi and Liu Cong are two smelly boys. They are young, so they are influenced by people. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s the matter here? It''s all brothers. What''s more, there are some arguments. That''s normal. After the argument, it''s over. Laugh it off. "


    Liu Biao said, "well said!"


    Liu Qi and Liu Cong bowed their heads and stopped talking.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, but she didn''t intend to expose it.


    Because the two brothers were obviously influenced by Zhuge Liang, he didn''t want to. At the very least, Zhuge Liang should not be allowed to exert any more influence on the two brothers, making them become outstanding.


    Zhang Xiu said: "brother Qi and brother Cong, I still have some heartfelt words about you and Zhuge Liang. I don''t know if you would like to hear them?"


    Liu Biao said, "Jiang Ping, it''s OK to say so."


    Liu Cong and Liu Qi stare at each other solemnly.


    Liu Qi said: "brother, please say it!"


    Liu Cong also said: "please say!"


    Liu Biao said, "since you two brothers think that Kong Ming is a great hero. I think you must often talk with Kong Ming on weekdays, right? "


    "Yes


    Both Liu Qi and Liu Cong answered.


    Liu Qi didn''t say anything more. Instead, it was Liu Cong, who added: "Kong Ming''s thinking is meticulous and his words are very convincing. His remarks are really refreshing. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "this is a refreshing speech. Let me ask you what you have gained from your conversation with Kong Ming? Besides being convinced, what did you get? "


    Liu Qi opened his mouth and wanted to answer, but when the words came to his mouth, it seemed that there was nothing to say.


    It seems that I really don''t know what it is.


    Liu Cong searched in his mind, but he didn''t know how to say it after thinking about it, because the usual talks and quotations were all about the imperial court.


    What are the eunuchs, the tyranny of Dong Zhuo and so on


    This is known to all.


    It is very convincing to say it from Zhuge Liang''s mouth.With a smile, Zhang Xiu continued: "let me put it another way. When you talked with Zhuge Liang, did you get any methods of governing government affairs, what specific methods of using troops, and even what skills of defending people?"


    "No!"


    Liu Qi shakes her head and answers.


    Zhuge Liang never touched on specific matters.


    Liu Cong also gave a dry smile.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I always think that talking about things is harmful to the country and doing things to prosper the country. It doesn''t make any sense to just talk, but never act. What''s more, Zhuge Liang is very talented. He has a strategic mind. He knows the truth of governing the country and the method of marching and arraying. Has he ever taught you anything? " ,


    "no!"


    "You didn''t get anything, and he didn''t say anything."


    "Because it''s no use saying that."


    "Only by talking freely and quoting classics can we show people''s abilities. So when he talks to you, it''s all talk. "


    "It''s just that in my opinion, I have to work hard to do things. Even small things can be called great heroes."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t do it with small evil, and don''t do it with small good. Do you think so?"


    "Yes


    Liu Qi and Liu Cong answered at the same time.


    They both shrugged their heads and were dejected. They did not dare to argue with Zhang Xiu any more.


    It''s really a debate with Zhang Xiu. It''s self abuse.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu and Zhuge Liang were so eloquent that they could not refute.


    Liu Biao is also in the spotlight.


    Zhang Xiu''s last words are very good.


    Don''t do evil small, don''t do good small.


    Well said.


    Zhang Xiu digs away and no longer mentions the great hero. She looks at Liu Biao and says, "uncle, what I said just now is a bit heavy. It may have hit the two brothers. Please forgive me."


    Liu Biao said: "Haihan what, these two silly boys, were played around."


    He was a little angry.


    Because the two sons were both aggrieved by Zhuge Liang, they were obviously influenced by Zhuge Liang.


    But Zhuge Liang did not pay attention to Jingzhou.


    Liu Biao also admired Zhuge Liang, praised his ability and command, but from the beginning to the end, Zhuge Liang never thought of staying in Jingzhou or entering Jingzhou as an official.


    Because Zhuge Liang has a high ambition.


    Liu Biao once solicited Zhuge Liang to become an official, but Zhuge Liang refused.


    Obviously, I don''t like Jingzhou.


    But his two silly sons, also a pair of ideas for Zhuge Liang injustice.


    Liu Qi is a modest gentleman. When he heard Liu Biao''s words, he said, "father, Kong Ming never asked us to do anything for him. Just a moment ago, I mentioned Kong Ming. "


    Although Liu Cong was more shrewd, he also said, "elder brother, it''s reasonable. We just mentioned brother Jiang Ping''s affairs, but we didn''t hold injustice for brother Kong Ming."


    Two brothers, still trust Zhuge Liang.


    The more they said that, the more angry Liu Biao was.


    Liu Biao pointed to his two sons and opened his mouth to scold them. However, when he got to his mouth, he swallowed it again. He was a little frustrated, so he stopped persuading them.


    It''s too much to say.


    Liu Biao ordered his servants to have a banquet.


    The servants of the family, one by one, came in with delicious food and wine, and put them on the table one by one.


    Liu Biao personally accompanies him, persuades him to drink, and pushes the cup with others. It''s very lively. In addition, with CAI Mao on the side, it is also an active release of goodwill. It can be said that both the guests and the host are happy.


    The party didn''t end until late at night.

 Chapter 129

    After leaving Zhuge Liang''s house, Zhou Zhong quietly hid his whereabouts and quickly sneaked back to his residence.


    In the study, Zhou Zhong took off his cloak and sat down.


    He has a gloomy face and is not in a good mood. Originally, his intention was to destroy the marriage of Zhang Xiu and break the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao with the help of Zhuge Liang.


    Zhuge Liang''s unwillingness to get involved made his plan to kill people with a knife fail.


    He has always been cautious and does not want to end in person.


    So we have to find another way.


    Zhou Zhong thought, thinking of CAI Mao and wenpin.


    Either Cai Mao or Wen pin had a grudge against Zhang Xiu. But wenpin is a military general and a straight man. He can''t do harm to Zhang Xiu, and Zhou Zhong doesn''t hope for it.


    Only Cai Mao.


    This may be a breakthrough.


    Today, Zhou Zhong doesn''t know that Cai Mao''s attitude towards Zhang Xiu has changed. After all, Zhang Xiu and Cai Mao have never appeared together. After thinking about it clearly, Zhou Chong immediately got up and prepared to go to Cai Mao''s residence overnight.


    But as soon as he got up, he frowned again, thinking that it might be dangerous to go to Cai Mao''s residence in person.


    What if Cai Mao takes him?


    There are risks.


    Zhou Zhongneng was sure that Zhuge Liang would not be handed over to Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu, but he could not be sure whether Cai Mao would take action. Because Zhuge Liang did not have the position of Jingzhou, and Cai Mao was on the side of Jingzhou.


    Zhou Zhong''s cautious mind once again gained the upper hand. He sat down again and said, "come on!"


    A valet enters and stands with a bow.


    Zhou Zhong said, "let Ling you come to my room."


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    Not long after, a young man in his early twenties, smart and thin, came in. He was from Xiangyang, but he wandered to Jiangdong early and joined the army. He was a soldier in sun CE''s army.


    Zhou Zhong came to Xiangyang and chose Ling you who came from Xiangyang.


    Ling you stood still and said, "what can I do for you, my lord?"


    Zhou Zhong''s face was solemn. He said solemnly, "just now, I went to see Zhuge Liang in person. I hope he can deal with Zhang Xiu and destroy the marriage between Zhang Xiu and the Huang family, but Zhuge Liang refused."


    "Now there is another person who has a grudge against Zhang Xiu, that is Cai Mao."


    "He may deal with Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s just that Cai Mao''s position is unclear. After all, Cai Mao is from Jingzhou and a member of Jingzhou officialdom. If Cai Mao disregards his personal enmity and wants to stand in Jingzhou''s position, we Jiangdong''s identity will be exposed and may be caught by Cai Mao. "


    "Of course, Cai Mao may not make any moves."


    "So I need you to go to Cai''s house to test Cai Mao''s idea and see if Cai Mao wants to deal with Zhang Xiu. If Cai Mao wants to do it, our people will be transferred by him. "


    Zhou Zhong made arrangements.


    He didn''t want to reveal his identity, so he let Ling you go. After all, Ling you''s identity is very common.


    Ling you after hearing, eyes began to turn up.


    He''s thinking about what to do.


    A moment later, Ling you thought about it and said, "my Lord, I have an idea."


    "Say it


    Zhou Zhong said.


    Ling you said: "I can lie that I am a businessman. I accepted the entrustment of Jiangdong and collected the money. Then I went to Cai''s house to look for Cai Mao and see if he wants to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    "If Cai Mao is willing, I will mobilize manpower to help him. If he doesn''t want to, let it go. Under such a major premise, I have put aside my position of Jiangdong and am just a neutral person. "


    "In this way, even if Cai Mao is suspicious, I''m afraid he won''t take me."


    Ling you said, "besides, Cai Mao is not so narrow-minded. He must want revenge."


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhou Zhong stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a smile, "you''re a little quick witted."


    Ling you said, "your honor has been wrongly praised."


    Zhou Zhong said, "you go to see Cai Mao all night and make a decision so that you don''t have to wait a long time. As long as it''s done, I''ll write to my Lord in person and ask for credit for you. "


    "Thank you


    Ling you is also excited.


    Now sun CE has occupied all the counties in the east of the Yangtze River, and his strength has become more and more powerful, even to the point of ignoring Yuan Shu. Although today''s sun CE, on the surface, still obeys Yuan Shu''s instructions, in fact, sun CE has already listened to the tune rather than the propaganda.


    Such strength, let Ling you see the future. If he can get sun CE''s commendation, he will be promoted and become rich.


    Ling you said, "my Lord, I''ll leave your humble position."


    "Go


    Zhou Zhong waved his hand and said, "I''ll wait for your good news."


    Ling you changed his clothes, took a carriage, and went straight to Cai''s residence. It was almost midnight when he arrived at Cai''s residence.At this time, Cai Mao was still drunk.


    After all, I drink too much at night.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu is a big boy. In order to make friends with Zhang Xiu, he always drinks. After a banquet, Cai Mao''s impression of Zhang Xiu was greatly changed and became more appreciative.


    From the perspective of elders, we can see Zhang Xiu, especially Zhang Xiu is his nephew. If Zhang Xiu is strong, he can also take refuge in Zhang Xiu, and he will be more eager.


    The relationship between the two sides is warm.


    Cai Mao sat in his study, drank the hangover soup, and then belched.


    At this time, the housekeeper enters.


    He came to Cai Mao''s side and reported: "master, there is a man named Ling you from outside the house. He has something to ask for


    Cai Mao said, "what''s the matter?"


    The housekeeper said, "I didn''t say anything. The other side didn''t say anything. I just said something very important."


    Cai Mao said, "I''ll see you then."


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper got up and went to inform him.


    In a short time, Ling you came to the study, saluted and said, "I''ve met Mr. Cai."


    After drinking the sobering soup, Cai Mao''s spirits evaporated and he was sober. He was sitting in a critical position, looking at the Ling you who entered, and said, "what''s the matter with you coming to see me late at night?"


    Ling you said, "please report back to Mr. Cai. I''m entrusted by others."


    Cai Mao said, "don''t beat around the bush when you talk about people."


    Ling you is no longer around the circle, open to the mountain: "I received the entrustment of Jiangdong, to deal with Zhang Xiu. Jiangdong side, out of the price of 10000 gold, to destroy Zhang Xiu''s marriage


    "In my hands, there is a certain strength. As long as Mr. Cai is willing to do it, I can assign my people to you, so that you can arrange it, so as to destroy Zhang Xiu''s marriage, or even kill her. "


    "There is a deep hatred between Mr. Cai and Zhang Xiu, and there is a shame of being a prisoner. As long as you are willing, you can deal with Zhang Xiu. And I can give two thousand dollars as the cost of general Cai''s layout. "


    Ling you said: "I am a businessman, as long as I can complete the task entrusted by Jiangdong, I am willing to share the benefits."


    Cai Mao''s eyebrows rose.


    Unexpectedly, someone wanted to destroy Zhang Xiu''s marriage to Huang Yueying.


    Now he and Zhang Xiu have reconciled. The stronger the strength of Zhang Xiu, the better for him. Cai Mao''s heart, even a sudden impulse, to take Ling you immediately. However, he restrained himself.


    Don''t scare the snake!


    Cai Mao''s eyes turned, thinking about the countermeasures.


    He wants to stabilize the Ling you in front of him, and take down the man behind him. Especially when it comes to Jiangdong, once Liu Biao knows about it, he will definitely do it.


    Cai Mao even doubted that Ling you said he was a businessman. What if he was from Jiangdong?


    For a time, Cai Mao''s thoughts kept on.


    After a moment''s silence, he solemnly said, "Ling you, are you not afraid that I will take you down and give you to my lord?"

 Chapter 130

    It was late at night when Cai Mao arrived at the prefecture.


    Liu Biao has already had a rest.


    In the evening party, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves. Everyone drank a lot of wine, and so did Liu Biao. After all, Liu Biao is too old to drink. But he didn''t get drunk, just slightly.


    Back in the room, after drinking the sobering soup prepared by Cai, he has almost recovered.


    In the evening, he was in a good mood and in good spirits. After a long meeting with CAI, he became interested. Although Liu Biao is old and weak, some is better than none. At least he can comfort CAI.


    After Liu Biao went to bed, Cai Mao came.


    He was awakened by his servants, sleepy and unhappy. Cai stood aside and dressed Liu Biao. She knew that her brother would not disturb her at such a late time if there was no big event.


    Cai said softly, "my husband, there must be something important when Deyu comes late at night. Let''s see what Deyu says. If he doesn''t make trouble, he will be punished. "


    "Well!"


    Liu Biao, sleepy, went to his study.


    When he arrived, Cai Mao had been waiting in his study.


    Liu Biao was a little impatient. After he sat down, he said, "De Li, it''s already late at night. Is there anything I can''t wait for tomorrow morning? "


    Cai Mao said, "Lord, someone from the sun family of Jiangdong came to see me in the evening."


    "What?"


    Liu Biao''s eyes widened.


    He couldn''t get into the beat of a spirit, sleepiness completely disappeared, the expression on the old cheek also became dignified.


    Liu Biao attached great importance to sun CE.


    Because Sun Jian died in Jingzhou.


    Liu Biao put his hands on his knees and said in a deep voice, "what''s the matter, please explain it carefully."


    After sitting down, Cai Mao told Ling you all about instigating him to kill Zhang Xiu. After that, he began to say, "I''m a humble officer. I''ve stabilized Ling you for the time being."


    After listening to Liu Biao, he thought that it was calculating Zhang Xiu. For the time being, he selectively ignored the issue of Jiangdong. Suddenly, he said, "De Li, do you think we can kill Zhang Xiu?"


    Brush!


    Cai Mao''s face changed slightly.


    Liu Biao really dares to think that this kind of thing dares to do, but it will cost a lot.


    At the beginning, Cai Mao was in his own home, but he didn''t think much about it. But he took a carriage, and on the way from his home to the prefecture, he resumed the whole plan.


    It''s impossible to kill Zhang Xiu, because the plan is full of holes.


    Cai Mao replied: "Lord, it''s impossible to kill Zhang Xiu with the help of Jiangdong people and then plant it on Jiangdong people. After pondering over it, I found that there are three major problems. "


    Liu Biao said, "tell me!"


    Cai Mao said: "the first problem is that we have resolved the conflict with Zhang Xiu. And the conflict between me and Zhang Xiu is also your personal coordination. "


    "On this premise, I''ll go to Huang''s home to apologize and make a gesture of inviting Zhang Xiu to the banquet. Do you think that with Zhang Xiu''s shrewdness, there will be no doubt? "


    Cai Mao said, "Zhang Xiu is quite cunning."


    Cai Mao put forward the first reason.


    Liu Biao sighed: "yes, Zhang Xiu is as cunning as a fox. It''s impossible to cheat him."


    After a pause, Liu Biao said, "what about the second?"


    Cai Mao continued: "the second problem is that Zhang Xiu has arrived in Xiangyang City. If Zhang Xiu makes any mistakes in Xiangyang, he will suspect us. If Jiangdong does something wrong, it''s said that we killed Zhang Xiu. When the time comes, the old headquarters of Zhang Xiu in Nanyang County will go south and kill us. We will fall into civil war. "


    Liu''s face changed slightly.


    This is the last thing he wants to see.


    Liu Biao sighed again and said, "what about the third point?"


    Cai Mao continued: "the third problem is that if Zhang Xiu is not assassinated, the consequences will be unimaginable. Zhang Xiu is good at fighting. Once he escapes, Jingzhou will fall into war. Before that, we sent someone to assassinate Zhang Xiu, but fortunately we didn''t do it. Now it''s hard to reconcile with Zhang Xiu. If we change our mind, we and Zhang Xiu will never die. This is not a good thing. "


    Liu Biao also frowned.


    True and Zhang Xiu on, his heart is also very unwilling.


    Liu Biao finds that he can''t deal with Zhang Xiu. He turns his mind and goes to Jiangdong.


    He is also afraid of sun CE.


    Liu Biao gritted his teeth and said, "Sun CE is really powerful. He has gathered so much strength in Xiangyang City quietly. I''m afraid the other party really wants to kill two birds with one stone, kill Zhang Xiu first, and then count us. Unfortunately, it''s impossible. "


    Cai Mao said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Biao said: "De Li, I authorize you to act with full authority. To deal with the Jiangdong forces, we must uproot them. This is our chance, understand? ""I understand!"


    Cai Mao nodded solemnly.


    He said, "it''s just a matter of calculating the power of Jiangdong. We have to block the news of our reconciliation with Zhang Xiu. Once the news gets out, all our plans are useless."


    Liu Biao said: "you directly say, how do you want me to do it?"


    Cai Mao said: "I suggest that you ban the two young masters and detain the people you know to avoid information leakage. I''ll go to Huang''s mansion early tomorrow morning and let Huang Chengyan stabilize the people of Huang''s family to avoid information leakage. "


    Liu Biao said, "I''m fully cooperative. It happened that Liu Qi and Liu Cong, two stinky boys, had a hot fight with Zhuge Liang during this period of time. They hardly knew their surnames. A few days'' ban also makes them reflect on themselves. "


    Cai Mao said, "my Lord is wise!"


    "Is there anything else?" Liu said


    Cai Mao said, "no more!"


    Liu Biao''s spirit soon passed away and began to yawn. He waved his hand and said, "since there''s nothing wrong, let''s step back."


    "Here it is


    Cai Mao stood up and left overnight.


    He went out of the house and went back to his mansion. When he lay down and had a rest, he still thought about meeting Zhang Xiu tomorrow. This time, he helped Zhang Xiu a lot. Without his arrangement, Zhang Xiu would be in danger.


    It''s his credit.


    Zhang Xiu has to remember his feelings.


    Cai Mao is full of joy and lies down to have a rest, while on the other side, Ling you returns to his residence.


    When Ling you saw Zhou Zhong, he reported: "my Lord, everything is going well. Although at the beginning, Cai Mao held a shelf and was unwilling to apologize to Zhang Xiu, hatred eventually prevailed. "


    "After being persuaded by his humble position, Cai Mao agreed to go to the Huang family to apologize."


    "Not only that, he also went to see Liu Biao to persuade him to participate. There is hatred between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu. He will definitely not miss this opportunity. "


    Ling you said, "this time, it''s all in order."


    "Smart!"


    Zhou Zhong said, "yes, you are a good boy."


    At this moment, Ling you is also full of joy. If he can plan successfully, it will be very beneficial to him.


    Ling you longed to say: "think about it. After Zhang Xiu is killed, we will withdraw from Xiangyang, and then disclose the news that Liu Biao killed Zhang Xiu. The old headquarters of Zhang Xiu in Nanyang County will go south. Jingzhou civil strife, that is really looking forward to. "


    Zhou Zhong said: "indeed, this is a once-in-a-lifetime play."


    After a pause, Zhou Zhong asked: "the more so, the more cautious we should be. We must not be careless."


    "I understand!"


    With a smile on his face, Ling you confidently said, "when I talked with CAI Mao, he asked me how to contact us."


    "His intention is to get to the bottom of us."


    "Once we finish the task, he''ll try to catch us all."


    "I told Cai Mao that the location of our action should be decided by ourselves. At that time, we will withdraw as soon as we finish our task. Anyway, the time is set for tomorrow night. We just need to wait. We don''t need to contact Cai Mao. "


    Ling you said, "as long as Zhang Xiu leaves Cai Mao''s residence, we can take action."


    "Good, good!"


    Zhou Zhong stroked his beard under his jaw and was very happy.


    He promised again: "don''t worry, after this event, I will play the Lord and ask for your credit in person. After this time, you will no longer be the most common spy, but will have the officials and barons in your body. "


    Ling you said, "thank you for your cultivation."


    Zhou Zhong waved his hand and said, "it''s getting late. Let''s have a rest."


    "Here it is


    Ling you turns back.


    Zhou Zhong sat alone in the room, looking forward to it. After thinking for a while, he did not delay any more and went to rest. He has been up to now, and his spirit is very tired. But spiritually, though tired, it''s very pleasant, because everything is very smooth.

 Chapter 131

    Xiangyang City is quiet at night.


    It''s freezing now, and there are few activities at night. The bustling city has become quiet.


    In the west of the city, a rather remote house.


    Although the location of this house is partial, its back is close to the mountain and water. There is a row of low bamboo at the gate of the yard, and some evergreen trees in winter. The environment is quite elegant.


    This is Zhuge Liang''s house.


    Zhuge Liang spent most of his time studying in lumen mountain. However, he has a residence near lumen mountain. Besides, he also has an estate near Longzhong, which is to the west of Xiangyang.


    His family is quite rich.


    After all, Zhuge family is a big family.


    Although the Zhuge family moved from Langya to Jingzhou, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, so it was not weak. In addition, after Zhuge''s family arrived in Xiangyang, Zhuge Liang''s two elder sisters, one married Kuai Qi of the Kuai family, and the other married Pang Degong''s son.


    Zhuge family has successfully integrated into Jingzhou scholar circle.


    So there are not many industries.


    During this time, Zhuge Liang did not live in lumen mountain, but in Xiangyang City.


    Because he is interested in rice paper.


    The rice paper made by Huang family is sold on a large scale in Xiangyang. Because of its good texture and ink tolerance, Xuan paper is popular and praised by countless scholars.


    Moreover, rice paper is not expensive.


    Many people can afford it.


    So now Xuan paper has replaced bamboo slips.


    Zhuge Liang also bought a lot of rice paper. He wanted to visit the Huang family to see how rice paper was made. The problem is that his relationship with the Huang family is a little awkward now, and it''s not so good to go to the Huang family.


    So, we have to stay in the city.


    That night, Zhuge Liang was still copying classics.


    Zhuge family is a big family, there are many bamboo slips, these bamboo slips pile up a lot, a pile of a book, not conducive to carry. What he wants to do is copy the classic books on bamboo slips onto rice paper.


    Often hundreds of Jin bamboo slips are transcribed and copied onto rice paper, and not much rice paper is used. Moreover, books are made into volumes, which are easy to carry with you.


    Copying books is also a great pleasure.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    His bookboy stood outside the door and said in a loud voice, "young master, there is a visitor outside the mansion. He said that he was attracted by his name."


    "Please


    In his eyes, Ge Jingliang put down his brush.


    Come with admiration?


    What fame can he have?


    Pang Degong praised him very much. His reputation, that is to say, spread among the Xiangyang gentry circle. Few people know about him for the time being. After all, he is not old.


    He was sitting in his seat, waiting quietly.


    Soon, there was a sound of footwork outside the room.


    Then there was a knock on the door.


    "Creak!"


    The door was pushed open, and a tall, angular cheeked, sharp eyed middle-aged man in black entered.


    When the middle-aged man saw Zhuge Liang, he arched his hand and said, "I''ve seen Mr. Zhuge!"


    Zhuge Liang, with a cool look, waved his hand to show the middle-aged man to take his seat and said slowly, "look at your face. Some of your faces are strange. I''m sure I haven''t seen them before. You said that you came here with admiration. I don''t know what happened? "


    The middle-aged man lifted up his robe and sat down. He said with a smile, "Mr. Zhuge is young, intelligent and gifted. He is not only familiar with the art of war, but also knows how to govern the country. With Mr. Wang''s ability, he will become a prime minister in the future. "


    Zhuge Liang chuckled, but shook his head.


    He didn''t believe that.


    Although Zhuge Liang was confident that his talent would be displayed, he didn''t believe in flattery.


    Courtesy to others, there must be a request!


    People in front of them do not answer, but praise. They must have a purpose, especially when they come to him in the evening.


    Zhuge Liang thought thoroughly, and no longer asked, but said: "your name, where do you come from?"


    Middle aged humanist: "to tell you the truth, Mr. Zhuge will come from Jiangdong next week."


    Zhuge Liang''s heart moved, and he had a general direction. He said, "Mr. Zhou came from Jiangdong, and found me in the middle of the night. What''s the matter?"


    Zhou Zhong faced Zhuge Liang. Although he was already in his early 30s, he was already an adult, and Zhuge Liang was less than 20 years old, he did not dare to underestimate Zhuge Liang.


    He knew that Zhuge Liang understood his identity.


    As a matter of fact, Zhou Zhong was the person Zhou Yu arranged to go to Xiangyang to inquire into the information of Xiangyang so as to spread it to Jiangdong.


    Today''s sun CE occupies the land of Jiangdong.


    Although sun CE was in Jiangdong, he always wanted to attack Jingzhou and avenge his father Sun Jian. So after sun CE established his foothold in Jiangdong, he negotiated with Zhou Yu and dispatched Zhou Zhong, a steady and reliable member of the Zhou family, to Xiangyang to lurk down first, and to make an emergency to inquire about the news.Zhou Zhong still didn''t answer Zhuge Liang''s question, and continued: "I heard that Zhang Xiu had met Huang Chengyan when she went to Xiangyang, and asked Pang Degong to marry Huang Chengyan. Does Mr. Zhuge know about this? "


    Zhuge Liang said, "what''s the matter that everyone knows


    Zhou Zhong said, "is Mr. Zhuge willing?"


    Zhuge Liang said, "what are you willing to do?"


    Zhou Chongshen said in a deep voice: "if there is no Zhang Xiu''s intervention, the son-in-law of the Huang family must be Mr. Zhuge. Because Zhang Xiu was born, it blocked your way. Zhang Xiu is your enemy of Zhuge Liang. Now that Zhang Xiu is married to Huang Yueying, are you willing? "


    This is to stimulate Zhuge Liang.


    After all, it''s young people. Once Zhuge Liang is willing to step in, things will be easy.


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "it''s mine, after all, it''s mine. Not mine, not mine after all, why force? What''s more, without Zhang Xiu''s intervention, I must be the son-in-law of the Huang family? Once I didn''t propose to marry Huang Yueying, second I didn''t have a childhood relationship with Huang Yueying, third I didn''t decide to marry Huang Yueying. How can I conclude that I will marry Huang Yueying? "


    Zhou Zhong suddenly raised his eyebrows.


    Zhuge Liang was unwilling to cooperate with him because he did not import some oil and salt.


    But Zhou Zhong did not give up and said again, "Mr. Zhuge, the wise don''t talk in secret. Huang Chengyan, the old man, had a crush on you. But because Huang Yueying went north to Yuyang county and had a good relationship with Zhang Xiu, the situation changed. You just give up your hands and take care of people... "


    "Shut up


    Zhuge Liang gave a loud drink.


    His eyebrows stand upright, his eyes become sharper than ever, his eyes are burning at Zhou Zhong, and he says in a deep voice, "if you don''t have anything, please come back."


    Zhou Zhong was not angry and said, "Mr. Zhuge, don''t be angry. As long as you like, I can transfer a group of people to you and let you command. With your ability, I believe you will win Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying back. My people are all first-class


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhuge Liang heard the speech, he began to laugh.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    He raised his head, chin slightly up, his face was full of pride, and said with a loud voice: "what Zhuge Liang wants to fight for, he will fight with his ability, and he won''t borrow others'' hands, let alone make a knife in their hands. You''ve got the wrong idea to use a knife to kill people. I can''t and will never be the knife in your hand. "


    "You..."


    Zhou Zhong frowned deeply.


    He didn''t expect that Zhuge Liang was so stubborn that he didn''t cooperate at all.


    Zhou Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "ZHUGE Liang, are you still not a man?"


    Zhuge Liang stood up, looked down at Zhou Zhong and said, "it''s because I''m a seven foot man that Zhuge Liang won''t be provoked by you."


    "Although Huang Yueying is a talented woman with a unique style, she is a good match. But I Zhuge Liang, it is not that I can''t find a woman, nor that I am narrow-minded, because if a woman doesn''t choose me, she will become angry and harm others. "


    "I don''t care about it!"


    "If you want to deal with Zhang Xiu, you have to stir up the relationship between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu and break the relationship. It''s your own business. Don''t provoke me. Otherwise, I Zhuge Liang will let you go. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "tonight, I will not care about you. If you mess around again, I''m sure you can''t have a foothold in Xiangyang. "


    Week weight and face color changed slightly.


    He knew that Zhuge family also had certain contacts and influence in Xiangyang. Once Zhuge Liang made a move, he would certainly be affected.


    Zhuge Liang said, "please


    "Goodbye!"


    With regret in his heart, Zhou Zhong no longer stayed, so he got up and went out. Although he did not know Zhuge Liang, he knew that persuasion could not succeed when he heard his powerful words.


    Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Zhong''s back and hummed coldly.


    He and Huang Yueying, also only a few sides of the edge, nothing to fall in love with and so on. Although he has some ideas about Zhang Xiu''s marriage to Huang Yueying, he will not interfere.


    He has his persistence.


    He is even more proud of himself.


    He is Zhuge Liang!

 Chapter 132

    Ling you sees this, facial expression is indifferent, have no what fear. Because in his opinion, Cai Mao didn''t do it immediately, so he was safe.


    He has a chance.


    He must be able to persuade Cai Mao.


    Ling you said with a smile: "Mr. Cai, I''m just an ordinary businessman. If you arrest me, even if you hand me over to Liu Jingzhou, it''s of no value. So I''m sure you won''t do it. "


    "You are too confident," Cai Mao said


    At this moment, Cai Mao''s heart, more doubt.


    The more Ling you said he was a businessman, the more suspicious he thought Ling you was.


    There is no doubt that these three hundred taels are here.


    Ling you''s heart is quite proud. He doesn''t think that he shows any flaws, and he doesn''t think Cai Mao will take him. Because his cognition is preconceived that Cai Mao is hostile to Zhang Xiu.


    What he didn''t know was that Cai Mao and Zhang Xiu had turned their quarrel into friendship.


    This is information asymmetry.


    Ling you raised his head and threw the ground in a voice: "Mr. Cai, you don''t need to mobilize your men. So, you won''t show any flaws. You just need to make a plan to deal with Zhang Xiu, and you can use your own advantages. "


    "This is your chance."


    "Once you miss it, you lose the chance."


    "Zhang Xiu is like a mountain to you. If you don''t seize this opportunity, I''m afraid you won''t have another chance of revenge next time. "


    Ling you said: "I''m just for Mr. Cai. It''s not worth it. You''re a famous general of Jingzhou. You''re the head of Jingzhou''s military general. If you lose to Zhang Xiu because of an oversight, it will be a lifelong shame. That''s too bad. "


    By this time, Cai Mao had a plan in mind.


    He has a plan.


    After hearing Ling you''s words, Cai Mao examined Ling you with her eyes, pretending to show her killing attitude.


    The more so he is, the more reassuring Ling you is.


    Ling you is not afraid of threats.


    In his opinion, if Cai Mao really wanted to kill him, he would have done it long ago. The more he makes a fierce gesture, the more steadfast Ling you is in his heart. He thinks it is extremely safe to persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Cai Mao looks at Ling you and doesn''t talk.


    Ling you doesn''t speak either.


    The two sides seem to be facing each other.


    The atmosphere became dignified for a moment.


    However, both Cai Mao and Ling you are very relaxed.


    After a long time, Cai Mao''s murderous spirit subsided. Ling you knew that it was done.


    Cai Mao sighed: "you can be so calm under the authority of my official. You are not an ordinary businessman. You are sun CE''s hidden pile in Xiangyang. "


    "Yes


    Ling you answers with a smile.


    He admitted it directly because he was sure that Cai Mao would not do it.


    Cai Mao said: "although you said you wanted me to give you advice, in fact, you must have a detailed plan. Come on, what are you going to do with Zhang Xiu? Remember, I won''t do it myself. I can''t get myself into trouble. I can help you, but I won''t transfer my people. "


    Ling you confidently said: "no problem, we have our people to do everything."


    "What about the plan?" Cai Mao said


    Ling you had an idea in his heart and immediately said, "our plan is for you to go to Huang''s home in person and apologize to Zhang Xiu for peace. Then he invited Zhang Xiu to the banquet. "


    "At the banquet, we must intoxicate Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu is very good at martial arts. Even if we ambush, it''s very difficult."


    "Therefore, after intoxicating Zhang Xiu, once he leaves your residence, I will arrange people to ambush him in the street and kill him thoroughly."


    "If we kill Zhang Xiu, it''s good for Jingzhou and good for Mr. Cai."


    Ling you said, "what do you think of Mr. Cai?"


    When Cai Mao heard of the plan, he wanted to agree to a hundred or a thousand.


    He has no opinion.


    But in his heart, he would not agree immediately. Instead, he said, "I''m Jingzhou general, commanding Jingzhou''s general and army. Let me apologize to a yellow mouthed child like Zhang Xiu. It''s impossible! "


    He did it on purpose.


    Is to deliberately stabilize Ling you, let the other side relax their vigilance.


    Cai Mao''s refusal is expected by Ling you. Because Cai Mao was a famous scholar in Jingzhou and the head of the Cai family. If such a person wants to apologize to Zhang Xiu, Cai Mao will certainly resist.


    Ling you leaned forward a little and said, "general Cai, it''s impossible for those who want to do great things not to be wronged. Although you apologize to Zhang Xiu, it is wronged, but it is worth it. If you think about it, Liu Jingzhou hates Zhang Xiu. If you can get rid of Zhang Xiu, Liu Jingzhou is very happy. This is your chance. Isn''t it worth it? "


    Cai Mao has a look of emotion.


    But the look on his face, is still to refuse to meet, some unwilling.Ling you struck while the iron was hot and said again, "Mr. Cai, this is your chance. You become the first of Jingzhou''s civil and martial arts, just look at this time. As long as Zhang Xiu is dead, your threat will disappear. "


    "Yes, I promise!"


    Cai Mao clenched his teeth and answered.


    Ling you said: "Mr. Cai is wise!"


    At the moment, Ling you''s heart is already extremely happy, because he contributed to Cai Mao''s plan to attack Zhang Xiu, he succeeded more than half. As long as Zhang Xiu was killed, they immediately announced that it was Cai Mao who killed Zhang Xiu.


    When the news reached Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu''s old troops were angry, and immediately sent their troops south to attack Xiangyang.


    At that time, Jingzhou will be in chaos.


    This is Zhou Zhong''s plan.


    Ling you''s heart, also incomparably admire Zhou Zhong, can lay such a vicious chain plan.


    If Zhang Xiu is allowed to marry Huang Yueying and Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao are allowed to resolve the conflict, a stable Jingzhou is not conducive to Jiangdong, and Zhou Chongcai will bring disaster to Jingzhou.


    Ling you said, "when will Mr. Cai take action?"


    Cai Mao''s eyes narrowed. He thought of going to the banquet at night. There were Liu Cong and Liu Qi at the banquet. Wan Liang brothers disclosed the news of the reconciliation, and everything was wasted.


    So, we have to block the information.


    Cai Mao said: "when it comes to Zhang Xiu, I''m willing, but the Lord may not be willing. I must go to see my lord overnight and report the news to him. As for the matter of apologizing to Zhang Xiu, tomorrow morning, I will go to the door to apologize. In the evening, I''ll invite him to dinner and get him drunk. "


    "Good!"


    Ling you agreed directly.


    If you can persuade Liu Biao, that''s the best.


    Of course, Ling you also thinks that Liu Biao wants to kill Zhang Xiu. Because Yi Ji died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Wei Yan also died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. In sum, there is a deep hatred between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu.


    Cai Mao said, "how can I contact you?"


    Ling you is also cautious, smile: "the detailed plan has been finalized, between us, no longer need to contact, as for the promised money, we will give you.". As long as Mr. Cai apologizes and invites Zhang Xiu to dinner in the evening, we will ambush Zhang Xiu on the way back to Huang''s home. You don''t need to worry about other things. "


    Cai Mao sneered and said, "you''re on your guard!"


    Ling you said frankly: "let Mr. Cai laugh. After all, we have to consider the worst."


    "Well, I don''t ask."


    Cai Mao nodded and answered.


    Ling you said: "goodbye!"


    Cai Mao said: "walk slowly, don''t send!"


    Ling you got up and left, and Cai Mao quickly changed his official uniform and went to the prefecture.


    There are Jiangdong forces in Xiangyang City, which needs attention. As a matter of fact, all over Jingzhou, whether Liu Biao or Cai Mao, have paid much attention to sun CE.


    The reason is very simple, Sun Jian died in Jingzhou. Although Sun Jian was not killed by Liu Biao himself, it was Liu Biao who sent Huang Zu to ambush and lead to Sun Jian''s death.


    This is the Revenge of killing my father.


    The hatred of killing my father is mortal.


    Such hatred, let Liu Biao fear.

 Chapter 133

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Cai Mao got up early to wash up. After breakfast, he took a carriage out of the house and went straight to Huang''s house.


    Arriving at Huang''s home, Cai Mao went straight in.


    In the hall.


    After Cai Mao was seated, Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu came to the hall.


    Huang Chengyan''s elegant cheek, with a faint smile. He lifted up his robe and sat down. He said with a smile, "why did you come here so early? Is there anything important? "


    Cai Mao said, "brother-in-law, hold back all the people outside the hall. I have something important to say."


    Huang Chengyan''s face was deep.


    He took a look at Zhang Xiu, subconsciously, thought that this matter and Zhang Xiu. He has no official and is light. If he doesn''t get involved in Jingzhou''s political affairs, it''s impossible to find him.


    Huang Chengyan immediately ordered to go down and let the housekeeper take all the attendants out of the hall.


    Then Huang Chengyan said, "what happened?"


    Cai Mao didn''t hide it either. He immediately told Ling you about Zhang Xiu''s calculation last night and Liu Biao''s opinion. Finally, he said, "after discussing with my Lord, I decided to find out the hidden Jiangdong forces in Xiangyang City."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu fell into deep meditation.


    According to Ling you''s plan, Cai Mao''s coming to Huang''s house now is tantamount to a door-to-door apology, and he has to go to a banquet in the evening.


    When he leaves at night, he will be ambushed.


    It was the most dangerous time.


    What if Liu Biao arranges people to mingle with them?


    Of course, since Zhang Xiu knows Liu Biao''s plan, she will make detailed arrangements to avoid her own danger.


    Cai Mao continued: "Jiang Ping, don''t worry. I have convinced the Lord that he will mobilize soldiers to protect your safety. This war is only aimed at the forces of Jiangdong and will not affect your security. What do you think of this plan? "


    In the end, Zhang Xiu''s consent has to be sought.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to, then the plan can''t go on.


    After thinking, Zhang Xiu had an idea in her mind and said, "no problem, I''ll cooperate with you."


    "Good!"


    Cai Mao was smiling.


    This time, he is sure to make great achievements.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "someone''s intention is against me, thanks to my uncle''s notice. If my uncle didn''t inform me, I''m afraid I''d be caught in a series of murders in Jiangdong. Without my uncle''s cooperation, I''m afraid they''ll find someone else. This time, thank you for reminding me. "


    "It''s all small things," Cai Mao said


    Zhang Xiu read his love, he thought it was good.


    Cai Mao laughed and said, "come to dinner in the evening. Well, brother Chengyan is coming too. After all, you are together. "


    "No problem!"


    Huang Chengyan responded directly.


    Cai Mao said: "then I''ll leave. After I go back, there are still many things to be arranged."


    "Take your time, no see off!"


    Huang Chengyan said and watched Cai Mao leave.


    After Cai Mao left, Huang Chengyan''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu again and said, "Jiang Ping, what do you think of the plan for the evening?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''ve just thought about it carefully. Liu Biao''s probability of taking advantage of this opportunity to deal with me is actually very small. Because if he deals with me, if I''m on guard, it''s a declaration of war. Therefore, his goal should be the power of Jiangdong. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "even so, we must be prepared in advance. Otherwise, in case of an emergency, it will be bad. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Huang Gong''s words are reasonable!"


    Huang Chengyan said: "there is only one straight way from the Cai family to the Huang family. You can go straight along Pingyang street. It''s just that there are busy streets around for several miles. We can''t tell where they are hiding. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "there is no need to care where they hide. We just need to mobilize our troops and hide in the middle of Pingyang street. Once something goes wrong, you can help at any time. "


    "As for me, I will try my best to delay."


    "In addition, in the carriage I take, the position where I sit should be thickened with hardwood to prevent the penetration of bows and arrows. As long as that is achieved, I am safe. "


    "It''s dangerous to say, but there''s no risk," Zhang said


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "what I consider is that I helped Liu Biao become a bait this time. What benefits can I get at such a big risk?"


    "The reason why Ling you found Cai Mao was that Cai Mao and I had a grudge and wanted to kill people with a knife."


    "Then, it will create chaos in Jingzhou, so that Jiangdong can make profits."


    "All in all, I''m just a chess piece."


    "Take a big risk and get nothing in the end. You have to go through life and death."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the most important thing is that Cai Mao came to tell me in person that someone''s intention is not good for me. It''s like I''m in charge of his feelings. For me, it''s not worth it. If you help others a lot, you''ll have to pay a debt of gratitude. "Huang Chengyan blinked, but also suddenly understand.


    That''s true.


    "What are you going to do?" Huang said


    There was a light in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and there was a voice on the ground: "I want to ask Liu Biao for Xinye and other places, and become the real governor of Nanyang County. This is the benefit of helping him ambush the Jiangdong forces. "


    "Ah


    Huang Chengyan can''t help exclaiming.


    It''s too hard.


    With such a small feeling, we have to take Nanyang County South of Xinye county from Liu Biao''s hands, which is tantamount to gouging out Liu Biao''s heart.


    Such a thing, in Huang Chengyan''s view, is almost impossible.


    "It''s too hard for you," Huang said


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu confidently said, "even if it''s difficult, there''s still room for operation. I''m going to go to zhoumu prefecture to negotiate with Liu Biao and win the whole Nanyang County. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "Jiangping, it''s not that I don''t think much of you. It''s Xinye and other places that are too important. Xinye line is the place where Liu Biao stationed his troops, and also the defense line to the north of Xiangyang. In Xinye, Xiangyang is safe. Once Liu Biao lost Xinye and other places, he would not be able to sit in Xiangyang. "


    "No, I have a way."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with fine light.


    At first, Zhang Xiu didn''t have too many ideas about the whole Nanyang County, because Liu Biao couldn''t agree.


    But the relationship between the two sides has eased.


    Especially in the case of dealing with Jiangdong forces, Zhang Xiu is sure to rely on her eloquence to persuade Liu Biao to agree with his method and let Liu Biao hand over the whole Nanyang County to him.


    Huang Chengyan said: "since you have decided, go ahead. I''ll see."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Lord Huang can wait for good news."


    Without delay, he got up and went back to the yard, changed his clothes, took a carriage and went straight to the prefecture.


    State animal husbandry, gate.


    Zhang Xiu''s carriage stops, the curtain of the carriage door is lifted, and Zhang Xiu walks down from the carriage. As soon as he shook his clothes, he strode forward. Although the wind is cold, Zhang Xiu doesn''t care.


    The porter of the prefecture also knew Zhang Xiu. See Zhang Xiu came, the porter directly led Zhang Xiu to the hall to wait, and arranged a person to inform Liu Biao.


    Time is not long, Liu Biao has come.


    Liu Biao was dressed in a big shirt with a broad collar. His clothes were gorgeous and his spirit was very good. His old face, with a faint smile, said with a smile: "Jiangping early in the morning, come to the prefecture, what''s the important thing?"

 Chapter 134

    Zhang Xiu looked calm and said, "I''m coming down to see Liu Jingzhou in the prefecture for the purpose of dealing with Jiangdong mentioned by general CAI."


    At the moment, he called Liu Biao Liu Jingzhou.


    Call Cai Mao general CAI.


    It''s a formal term.


    In this way, it shows that he stands on the governor of Nanyang County, not as a junior.


    Liu Biao is also a mature man. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s name, he knew the meaning of Zhang Xiu. He was sure to talk about business. He quickly picked up his spirits and said, "Jiang Ping has any idea, but it doesn''t matter."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Jingzhou under the jurisdiction of Liu Jingzhou has a peaceful country and a prosperous people. However, Jiangdong has been planning to deal with Jingzhou. Just like this time, Jiangdong still wants to create civil strife in Jingzhou and hopes that Liu Jingzhou and I will fight. "


    "If Jiang Dong sun CE doesn''t involve me, he won''t deal with me. Well, I''m not going to deal with him


    "It''s just that he did it. I can''t take it as if it didn''t happen."


    "My Zhang Xiu''s character is that people don''t offend me. If a man offends me, I will return him twice. As for Jiangdong, I have to take revenge. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of obliteration. She solemnly said: "Jingzhou and Jiangdong are adjacent to Jiujiang county and Yuzhang County, which are bordered by Jiangxia County, and are the two most important counties in Jiangdong."


    "After all, almost all the water forces in Jiangdong are stationed in this area."


    "Is Liu Jingzhou interested in these two places?"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Biao and asked with a faint smile in her mouth.


    Liu Biao also had a heart beating.


    Of course he''s interested.


    No matter Lujiang County or Yuzhang County, they are all big counties, and there are not many wars in the two places. The common people have a good life, especially in this area where the water system is developed and it is really rich.


    If he can occupy these two counties, then he can attack Sunce and try to destroy Sunce.


    This is a great advantage.


    Liu Biao was excited for a moment, then recovered his composure and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ping, it''s not the style of Zhang Xiu that you think so much about me! There is interest, you can''t not do it. "


    Like Zhang Xiu, she has never suffered a loss.


    Even if Jiangdong murder Zhang Xiu, even if Zhang Xiu to revenge, but it should not be all out to help him Liu Biao seek benefits.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Jingzhou is brilliant!"


    Liu Biao said, "come on, what are your conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "in fact, my condition is very simple, that is, the imperial court appointed me to be the prefect of Nanyang County. Then, please Liu Jingzhou give me a complete Nanyang County, and let me be the real prefect of Nanyang County."


    "No way!"


    Liu Biao replied categorically.


    Liu Biao gave Zhang Xiu the area north of Yuyang County, but he didn''t think it was anything, because although the area north of Yuyang county was nominally under his rule, in fact, his control was very weak, almost beyond his control.


    The north of Yuyang county was given to Zhang Xiu, which had no effect.


    But the whole Nanyang County is given to Zhang Xiu, which means that Xiangyang, where he lives, is completely exposed to Liu Biao. As long as Zhang Xiu gets angry, or Zhang Xiu is not very happy, then Zhang Xiu may send troops to the south, threatening the safety of Xiangyang.


    This is Liu Biao''s consideration.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Liu Biao''s refusal, she was not anxious.


    He knew Liu Biao would refuse first.


    It''s normal.


    Zhang Xiu''s manner is self-confident, not anxious and slow way: "Liu Jingzhou''s concern does not lie in whether I control the whole Nanyang County, but in that I think that after I control Nanyang County, it will threaten the safety of Xiangyang, right?"


    "Yes


    Liu Biao answered directly.


    To him, Xinye and other places are the strategic depth of Nanyang County. The presence of these counties is equivalent to providing Xiangyang with a buffer. Even if Zhang Xiu sent troops to the south, Liu Biao could deal with it calmly.


    Zhang Xiu sorted out her language and continued: "I have no threat to Jingzhou. I said it last night, so I will not repeat it. Now I want to talk about the defense of Jingzhou. "


    "If I remember correctly, in the north of Xiangyang, on the border with Nanyang County, there is a gate on atou


    "It''s easy to defend, but hard to attack."


    "As long as the troops are stationed, even if I have thousands of troops, it is difficult for me to enter Xiangyang."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "but this is actually secondary. The key point is that I am going to marry Yue Ying, and Liu Jingzhou are relatives. My father-in-law and teacher will be in Xiangyang at that time. "


    "If I dare to attack Xiangyang, won''t I kill them? Even for their safety, I can''t send troops. "


    "What''s more, if I attack my uncle, what will the world think of me?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with light, and her eyes were bright. She continued: "in addition, I can make an alliance. Zhang Xiu and Liu Jingzhou will help each other and will not invade each other. If you break the covenant, heaven and man will abandon it, and man and God will punish it! "Liu recovered a little.


    Zhang Xiu has a point.


    As long as the Pang family and the Huang family are in Xiangyang City, there is no threat to Zhang Xiu. Even though the Pang family and the Huang family are strong, it is not difficult for Liu Biao to mobilize his army to destroy them.


    Liu Biao thought of the safety of Xiangyang and his mood recovered a lot, so he went on: "how can you help me capture Jiujiang county and Yuzhang county?"


    In the final analysis, Liu Biao still looks at the interests.


    Profitable, he naturally wants to cooperate with Zhang Xiu.


    Now Liu Biao occupies Jingzhou, he is not willing to fight with Cao Cao in the north, because he does not want to provoke Cao Cao, so he is not willing to expand. As for sun ce of Jiangdong, there is a feud between the two sides.


    In this case, Liu Biao did not attack sun CE, and sun CE will attack him in the future.


    Therefore, Liu Biao is willing to send troops.


    In addition, there is also a very important factor, that is, Jingzhou is a strategic place. This place alone has reached a bottleneck. Liu Biao can not expand to the north or to xiyizhou, but to the East.


    Jiujiang and Yuzhang are his opportunities.


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu continued: "I''ve made a plan for the spring of next year and told Liu Jingzhou, so it''s impossible to change. However, as long as the advance is successful, at most half a year, we can conquer Guanzhong. At that time, I will dispatch troops as pioneers to help Liu Jingzhou attack Jiujiang and Yuzhang. If Liu Jingzhou is at ease with me, I can lead the troops in person. "


    After listening to Liu Biao, he was also moved.


    These are two counties!


    He took out half of Nanyang County, in exchange for Zhang Xiu to help him capture Jiujiang county and Yuzhang County, which is a very cost-effective business.


    It''s worth it!


    Although Liu Biao is conservative, he will not let go of the meat on his lips.


    Under the temptation of interests, Liu Biao has been moved. Just his heart, or a trace of hesitation, in case Zhang Xiu got Nanyang County, but back?


    He''ll lose a lot of money.


    Seeing Liu Biao''s look, Zhang Xiu knew what Liu Biao thought in his heart and continued to persuade him: "Liu Jingzhou, whether you want to, it''s all in your mind. In fact, as far as I''m concerned, Nanyang County is not a place to stand


    "After I got a foothold in Guanzhong, Nanyang County is the place of chicken ribs."


    "But for you, if you win Jiujiang county and Yuzhang County, it''s easy to win the whole Jiangdong county. The reason why it is difficult for Jiangdong to attack is that Jiujiang county and Yuzhang county are linked together, and there are natural dangers on the water, and Jiangdong''s water army is stationed, so it is not conducive to attack. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "once you take these two counties, it''s Baili without any harm."


    Liu Biao''s breathing became short.


    He was really excited.


    Interest moves people''s hearts. Under the instigation of Zhang Xiu, this big cake drawn by Zhang Xiu has made Liu Biao dizzy, and he is completely dazzled by interest and vision.


    In his mind, he is looking forward to the scene of seizing the whole Jiangdong. In that case, he is enough to occupy half of the country.


    Liu Biao gritted his teeth and said, "OK, I promise you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Jingzhou is brilliant!"


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s heart is also relaxed and controls the whole Nanyang County, which is of great benefit to him.

 Chapter 135

    Zhang Xiu struck while the iron was hot and said: "Liu Jingzhou agreed to let me take charge of Nanyang County. Then, please ask Liu Jingzhou to issue an order. I''ll send someone to send the news back quickly and let Xu Shu take over Xinye and other counties. "


    "No problem!"


    Liu Biao is in the ascendant and is willing to go down.


    He dipped his pen in ink and wrote an order first, saying that Zhang Xiu, as the prefect of Nanyang County, should be in charge of the counties of Nanyang County, so he ordered the county magistrates south of Xinye to hand over quickly and withdraw from Nanyang County.


    This is a letter to Zhang Xiu.


    Then, Liu Biao wrote a letter to his soldiers to deliver the message. However, Liu Biao didn''t immediately give the letter to Zhang Xiu. Instead, he looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Jiang Ping, I have agreed to your request, but what you just said can''t be spoken without any basis. You have to set up a letter."


    Zhang xiudao said, "you should be so!"


    Liu Biao looked solemnly and said, "you write down your letter and promise to capture Guanzhong. Then you will personally lead your troops to the south to attack Jiujiang county and Yuzhang County for me."


    "Only in black and white can it be effective."


    "If you break the agreement and don''t help me to attack Jiujiang county and Yuzhang County, I will publish your letter to the world and let the world know that Zhang Xiu will turn back."


    Liu Biao threatened.


    In his opinion, Zhang Xiu should not regret.


    Zhang Xiu happily said: "I can''t go back on what Zhang Xiu said. I''ll write the contract. "


    He took the pen and paper and wrote the letter.


    For Zhang Xiu, with a few words and a letter, he can get half of Nanyang County, which is a very cost-effective business.


    As for attacking Jiujiang and Yuzhang, that will be the future.


    At that time, let''s talk about it in detail.


    In a word, Zhang Xiu can''t make herself suffer losses.


    After the two sides exchanged the contract, Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Jingzhou, the plan in the evening is to capture the people in Jiangdong alive, not to kill each other. Only by seizing the living can we interrogate the most valuable intelligence. "


    "I know!"


    Liu Biao nodded.


    He is also looking forward to his plans for the evening. If he catches the big fish arranged by Jiangdong in Xiangyang, he will make a big profit. This is his chance to deal with Sunce of Jiangdong.


    Zhang Xiu did not stay much, left the prefecture and returned to the Huang family.


    At this time, Huang Chengyan is still in the hall.


    He is waiting for the news of Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu came back, he quickly asked, "Jiang Ping, what''s the situation?"


    "It''s a success!"


    Zhang Xiu took out the letter written by Liu Biao, handed it to Huang Chengyan, and said, "Mr. Huang, you have arranged for the people of Huang family to send this letter back to Yuyang county quickly and give it to Xu Shu, who will select officials and take over the counties south of Xinye County in Nanyang County."


    Huang Chengyan quickly read the letter, see Liu Biaozhen agreed, also personally ordered, more surprised. When he closed the letter, he called for the housekeeper to send the letter out.


    Then Huang Chengyan said, "Jiang Ping, although Liu Biao has lost his enterprising spirit, he is also an old fox. He is more important than life to Nanyang County. How can he promise to hand over the counties to the north of Nanyang County? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "because of interests!"


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said that she helped Liu Biao attack Jiujiang county and Yuzhang county. She also said that even if Liu Biao handed over the counties to the north of Nanyang County, Xiangyang would be safe.


    Huang Chengyan said with a smile: "I''m afraid Liu Biao doesn''t know now that the Kuai family, Pang family and Huang family are all on your side. In addition, Cai Mao changed his attitude, and the Cai family helped him secretly. It is impossible for him to deal with the Huang family and Pang family. Liu Biao, you are so self righteous. "


    Today''s Liu Biao seems to be the leader of Jingzhou.


    In fact, he has little power.


    Many officials at the grass-roots level in Jingzhou are closely related to the Pang family, the Huang family, the Kuai family and the Cai family. If Liu Biao wants to deal with Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong, I''m afraid that as soon as he gives the order, the news will reach Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan.


    It''s impossible to do it.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Huang Gong''s words are reasonable, so this is the script. It can only be used to persuade Liu Biao. Because Liu Biao thought he could do it, he was at ease and easily handed over the counties to the north of Nanyang County. "


    Huang Chengyan added: "but you have made an agreement in black and white. When you take Guanzhong, you must help Liu Biao capture Jiujiang county and Yuzhang county. At that time, what do you do?"


    Zhang xiudao: "Huanggong, when I control Guanzhong, my strength will be further strengthened."


    "Liu Biao asked me to help him attack Jiujiang and Yuzhang. That''s suicidal. It is not easy for my army to enter Jingzhou. If Liu Biao takes the initiative to let me enter Jingzhou, do you think I will attack Jiujiang and Yuzhang counties? "


    "At that time, I can control Jingzhou first."


    "That''s my plan."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the current plan is to capture Guanzhong first and gain a foothold. Then, it is to take Jingzhou. Only with the rich land of Jingzhou can we have enough money and food to compete for supremacy in the world. "Huang Chengyan eyebrows up, very surprised.


    Zhang Xiu is very ambitious.


    It''s about striving for supremacy.


    However, if you think about it carefully, in today''s world, any powerful and enterprising vassal wants to compete for supremacy.


    Only Liu Biao is willing to be partial.


    Huang Chengyan stroked his beard and praised: "Jiang Ping''s plan is really closely linked. Funny Liu Biao, thought that all you did was for his good. As everyone knows, he has fallen into the pit. Jiang Ping, your plan is really profound. It can be said that it is far sighted. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Duke Huang, I praise you so much!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, it''s not foresight, it''s just pushing the boat with the current. Liu Biao was greedy. He wanted to capture Jiujiang and Yuzhang, and the land of Jiangdong. Otherwise, I can''t succeed even if my tongue is bright. "


    At this time, a sound of footsteps came from the outside.


    The housekeeper came again, bowed and said, "young master, please go to the back yard."


    "School yard?"


    Zhang Xiu has some doubts and says, "how did Yueying go to the school?"


    Huang Chengyan knew his daughter best. He snorted: "needless to say, she must have made some weapons. That''s why I let you go to the school field to test the power of new weapons. "


    "Then go and have a look!"


    Zhang Xiu is also interested.


    Last time when he was in Yuyang County, Huang Yueying forged the Longquan sword for him.


    Zhang Xiu is looking forward to Huang Yueying''s forging technology.


    Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu walked out of the hall together and went back to the hall. As he walked, Huang Chengyan said: "Jiang Ping, Yueying, a girl, doesn''t like embroidery and female workers, but likes to play with some equipment. You really don''t mind that? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Mr. Huang, I don''t mind. On the contrary, I prefer this kind of Yueying."


    "Too many women think that no talent is virtue and no ability. But what is the charm of such a woman? It''s important to teach your husband and children, but it''s also important to have a certain skill. "


    "Yueying is especially good at invention, which is the most important thing for me."


    "It''s because Yueying and my workshop work together that we can constantly improve our weapons. Today, the weapons used by my soldiers can become more and more sharp and invincible in the battlefield. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I like her like this."


    "That''s good!"


    After hearing this, Huang Chengyan was completely relieved.


    He was aware of his daughter''s temperament, so he was a little worried, so he got the question just now.


    After a while, they arrived at the school yard.


    Huang Yueying had been waiting for Zhang Xiu in the school yard early. When she saw Zhang Xiu coming, she quickly stepped forward and said happily, "brother Jiang Ping, you are here. I''ll make a sleeve arrow for you. It''s a weapon hidden in the sleeve and tied to the inside of the arm. Although the small, but lethal. Give it a try and see how powerful it is? "


    The sleeve arrow is a self-defense weapon.


    This kind of weapon can protect the safety of Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Chengyan was directly ignored.


    He gently coughed twice, trying to show his existence by coughing. However, Huang Yueying seems to have not heard it, which makes him feel a little congested.


    This girl hasn''t married out yet. She can only see Zhang Xiu in her eyes, but can''t see him. I''m afraid I can''t see his existence when I really marry Zhang Xiu.


    It''s so congested!

 Chapter 136

    "Wheel! Wheel


    The axle turns, slowly forward.


    In the carriage, Zhang Xiu sat cross legged with a solemn expression. Along the way, he looked out through the curtains of the carriage, always paying attention to the situation on both sides of Pingyang street to see if there were any shadowy clothes.


    Approaching the Cai family, Huang Chengyan said, "Jiang Ping, what have you found along the way?"


    Zhang Xiu lowered her eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "when we went out of the house, I found that there were dark piles outside the house. Along the way, every other distance, there will be people in charge of watching. From the Huang family to the Cai family, there are people from Jiangdong. In order to look at Jingzhou, I tried my best


    Huang Chengyan said: "your identity is very important. If something goes wrong, it will affect the whole situation. Under such circumstances, there are naturally more schemers. "


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Huang Chengyan.


    They chatted for a short time, and the carriage arrived outside Cai''s house.


    When they got out of the carriage, they saw the door of CAI''s mansion open. Cai Mao, dressed in a broad collar shirt, a long crown and a fox fur cloak, stood at the gate of CAI''s house to greet Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan.


    "Brother in law, Jiang Ping, please come inside."


    Cai Mao swung his hand sideways.


    At the moment, he is in accordance with the family banquet, calling Huang Chengyan his brother-in-law.


    "Please


    Huang Chengyan nodded and led Zhang Xiu to enter.


    When the three entered the mansion together, the door clanked and closed.


    Cai Mao took two people into the hall.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    In the hall, there were no other people except the attendants who served wine and meat. After waiting for all the dishes to be served, Cai Mao waved his hand and asked all the attendants to step down. He said solemnly, "brother-in-law, Jiang Ping, although it''s a show to hold a banquet at night, Jiang Ping is coming to our house for the first time, so he should celebrate."


    "We, drink from us."


    "The action at night, does not affect."


    Cai Mao was in high spirits and said with a smile: "as for the action at night, I have made careful arrangements during the day and found two people who are similar to you. Later, let them put on your clothes, and then let someone help them out of the house, and then enter the carriage. "


    "In this way, both brother-in-law and Jiang Ping are safe. After they leave, my brother-in-law and Jiang Ping will stay in the house, and the rest will be given to my soldiers! "


    Cai Mao put forward suggestions.


    This is because of the safety of Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan.


    After all, he and Zhang Xiu solved the crisis.


    Now that he can sell Zhang Xiu well, he naturally sells Zhang Xiu well. Moreover, during the day, he received news from his sister Cai from the prefecture. Zhang Xiu went to the prefecture and persuaded Liu Biao to assign Nanyang County South of Yuyang county to Zhang Xiu.


    This is the skill of Zhang Xiu.


    It is also good for such a person to invest in advance.


    Huang Chengyan heard Cai Mao''s words, stroked his beard under his jaw, his face was full of praise, and said: "De Li, you have done a good job this time. It''s really safe to do so. "


    Although Huang Chengyan arranged for people to lurk in Pingyang street, he has made careful arrangements. But no matter how careful the arrangement is, there are times when there are a hundred and a few.


    Cai Mao''s method is the best one.


    Zhang Xiu praised Cai Mao''s tact and knew that it was Cai Mao''s kindness. However, he didn''t agree to stay in CAI''s house and said, "uncle, in the evening, Huang Gong will stay in your house. I will go with your soldiers to stop the people in Jiangdong. I''ll see who wants to ambush me. "


    "Yes!"


    Cai Mao responded directly.


    As a former prisoner of Zhang Xiu, Cai Mao knows Zhang Xiu''s power well. With Zhang Xiu as a great master, the action at night must be safe.


    "Come on, drink!"


    Cai Mao took the lead in drinking a glass of wine.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan also raised their glasses.


    The three were in high spirits, pushing the cup to hand over the cup, but they were quite enthusiastic. Put aside the three people in the interests of disputes, this can be all relatives, are related, so incomparably relaxed.


    Chatting and drinking, I don''t feel time passing.


    An hour is fleeting.


    Cai Mao pinched the time and said: "time is almost there. We can take action. By this time, it was completely dark, the city gate was closed, and more soldiers were sitting in the dark. Tonight, it will be successful. "


    Immediately, Cai Mao arranged directly. After a while, two people came. A person''s age, body and shape are similar to Huang Chengyan, but different in appearance; a person''s age, body and shape are similar to Zhang Xiu, but also different in appearance.


    Cai Mao said: "brother in law, Jiang Ping, take off your coat and put them on."


    Huang Chengyan said, "Deyu, they look different."


    Chua Mao chuckled and explained, "brother-in-law, it''s not a big problem. When they get out of the house later, I''ll send them out in person, and someone will help them. ""When the time comes, we''ll put on their coats and hats to protect them from the wind and snow."


    "They can''t be found with their heads down."


    Tsai as like as two peas, and their faces and boots are all alike. The difference in body shape is not much. It''s impossible to see any difference at night. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Huang Chengyan stroked his beard and his face was full of praise.


    After a short time, the two doubles changed their clothes.


    And Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan, temporarily hiding in the hall did not go out.


    Cai Mao arranged for someone to come over and helped the double out of the hall. And he also went out of the house with the double himself. As they walked out of the gate, Cai Mao looked at the street not far away.


    It''s amazing to see the person who''s watching.


    The watchers didn''t worry about CAI Mao, because in their cognition, Cai Mao belonged to them.


    With a smile in his mouth, Cai Mao nodded slightly.


    Then, Cai Mao asked someone to send the stand in to the carriage. The driver had been informed earlier, so he knew that it was not Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu who got on the carriage. He just drove away.


    When Cai Mao returned to the mansion, he first settled Huang Chengyan, then asked Zhang Xiu to change a black dress and said, "Jiangping, we start from the small gate and head for the middle of Pingyang street. Unfortunately, Ling you didn''t say where to start. If you know the location of their attack in advance, it''s easy to surround and kill them. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the substitute arranged by my uncle also has martial arts."


    "Those who ambushed me have never seen me."


    "With the dark weather, they can''t succeed for a while. With this premise, we can arrive before they escape. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in addition, there are some people in the Huang family who are hiding nearby. Now all the important roads have been sealed off secretly, and this time we will win a great victory. "


    "You''re right," Cai Mao said


    They quickly left the back door and went to Pingyang street.


    As a matter of fact, it''s really closer to go through the back door. Because the back door is closer to the middle of Pingyang street. When they arrived in the middle of Pingyang street, they came to the place where the soldiers were lying in wait for the news.


    Time, little by little.


    Zhang Xiu calculated the time. According to the distance, the carriage that the double took should be almost at this position by now.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    The wheels turn, and a carriage comes at a high speed.


    "Here it is


    When Zhang Xiu saw the carriage coming, she saw a light in her eyes. It''s all in the middle, and the roads are all around here, which is most conducive to action. It''s reasonable that the other party may choose to be here.


    But, Zhang Xiu also does not guarantee.


    Everything depends on luck.


    Cai Mao lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "whether people in Jiangdong are hiding nearby depends on this time. If it''s not around here now, it will be more troublesome. "


    "Well!"


    Zhang Xiu responded.


    "Well, someone''s coming."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled as she turned. In the street ahead, a group of people appeared. All of these people were dressed in black. Several people used torches to disperse the darkness.


    The others, carrying their swords, rushed to the position of the carriage.


    When Cai Mao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he immediately looked at them.


    Eyes, he saw a group of people killed out, surprised to see Ling you.


    Seeing Ling you, Cai Mao said excitedly, "Jiang Ping, Ling you who came to see me has appeared. If you look closely, the man with the gun around him is more like the one in charge of action. "


    The one with the gun is Zhou Zhong!

 Chapter 137

    "Cough! Cough! "


    Huang Chengyan see his cough, did not cause Huang Yueying''s attention, and raised a breath, again hard cough twice. This sound is very loud, immediately attracted the attention of Huang Yueying and Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    He understood that the reason for Huang Chengyan''s cough was to remind Huang Yueying of his existence. But Huang Yueying is relatively simple, did not understand Huang Chengyan''s overtones.


    Huang Yueying returned to her senses. She blinked her big eyes, looked at Huang Chengyan and said, "ah, Dad, you''re here too."


    Huang Chengyan is even more congested.


    Just now, I didn''t notice his existence.


    Anyway, he is also a man of several decades old. He is a famous scholar in Jingzhou. He can attract people''s attention wherever he goes. But he is such a big person, in front of his daughter, but there is no sense of existence.


    This is my daughter.


    It''s so congested.


    Huang Yueying is not clear about Huang Chengyan''s inner thoughts, and continues: "my father is always coughing. Is there something wrong with his throat. On a cold day, if you inhale cold air, your throat will be very uncomfortable. In that case, don''t stay in the school, just go back. "


    Huang Chengyan''s cheek twitched slightly.


    Is this being rejected by my daughter?


    He really has a feeling of being pressed on the ground by Huang Yueying''s IQ.


    This girl is so simple.


    I''m really dedicated to making utensils. I don''t have any extra tricks.


    All of a sudden, Huang Chengyan began to worry again. As Zhang Xiu, he will definitely have more women in the future. At that time, in Zhang Xiu''s backyard, there will be three women in a play. There will be more people and disputes. Can Huang Yueying have a foothold?


    I''m afraid I''ll be killed.


    Huang Chengyan is a little uneasy, but thinking about Zhang Xiu''s words, Zhang Xiu says that he likes Huang Yueying like this, so he can only pray that Huang Yueying can get Zhang Xiu''s protection from bullying and neglect.


    Seeing Huang Chengyan''s embarrassment, Zhang Xiu said, "Yueying, Huang Gong came here specially to see the weapons you made. Here, let''s try the effect. "


    "Good!"


    Huang Yueying immediately handed over her sleeve arrow.


    It''s about two inches long. It''s not loaded with arrows.


    Huang Yueying said, "brother Jiangping, give it a try."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu did not say much, tied the arrow to her arm. He swung his arm and felt unaffected. He pointed his hand at the target and buckled it, only to hear a dull bang.


    "Whew!"


    A crossbow from the sleeve.


    The next moment, thirty steps away from the target, heard a dull sound. The archery target is specially used to test the crossbow. It is very thick. After being hit by the crossbow, the archery target shakes unceasingly. It can be seen that its penetrating power is very strong.


    Zhang Xiu once again.


    There was another dull sound, and the crossbow shot out again.


    "Bang!"


    The crossbow hit the target and hit the bull''s-eye again.


    The two crossbows and arrows, striking back and forth at the target, have a very strong penetrating power, while the sleeve arrow tied to the inside of Zhang Xiu''s arm has a certain recoil force, but it has little influence.


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of praise.


    With such a sleeve arrow, he has a heavy protection. At the most critical time, the arrow is a secret weapon, which can be unexpected and can turn the situation around.


    Zhang xiudao: "Yueying, thank you."


    Huang Yueying said, "brother Jiangping is very kind. As long as I can help you."


    Huang Chengyan stood aside.


    He felt that he was superfluous and even an eyesore.


    Huang Chengyan snorted and said in a deep voice: "Yueying, girls can''t indulge in making weapons and deal with them all day. Anyway, you should learn needlework. That''s what you should do


    Huang Yueying said, "Dad, you are so fussy. You are more wordy than your mother. My mother didn''t even say that. You said that to me no less than a hundred times. "


    "You..."


    Huang Chengyan was dumb.


    This dead girl.


    It''s not big or small.


    However, Huang Yueying was spoiled by him since he was a child, so he said something in his heart. He could not bear to scold Huang Yueying.


    Zhang Xiu took back the arrow, loaded it again, tied it to the inside of her arm, then hung down her sleeve, covered the arrow on her arm, and said with a smile: "Yueying, I can''t accompany you today. At night, there''s a lot to do. Huang Gong and I have a lot to discuss. "


    "Good!"


    Huang Yueying said nothing and left.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan go back to the study together. They take off their robes and feel the warm spring temperature. They feel much more comfortable. After all, there is charcoal fire in the study to drive away the cold.


    Zhang Xiu took out a piece of rice paper, drew a map of Pingyang street, and then began to compare the map, and discussed with Huang Chengyan in detail.Earlier, I said the general arrangement was to arrange a team of people to hide in the middle of Pingyang street. At that time, no matter where things happen, you can rush for help quickly.


    This is just a general arrangement.


    This arrangement is obviously not detailed enough.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan carefully discussed, a little bit of leak filling, the plan to add seamless. When it comes to big things, Zhang Xiu''s habit is to make a careful reply. She would rather spend more time in preparation than face it in a hurry afterwards.


    After everything was busy, Zhang Xiu began to rest.


    In the evening.


    As night approached, it was getting dark.


    Together with Huang Chengyan, Zhang Xiu goes out of the residence and takes a carriage to the house of the Cai family.


    After Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan left the house, not far away, a watcher quickly disappeared and went to an inn in Pingyang street. He came to the Inn and went straight to a room on the second floor.


    Zhou Zhong and Ling you are in the room.


    Sentinel report: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan are out of the house. They went down Pingyang street to Cai''s house. "


    "Good!"


    Zhou Zhong gave a smile.


    It''s done!


    Zhou Zhong looked at Ling you and said, "this evening''s drama will officially start. We are now staring at Cai Mao''s residence. In the evening, when Zhang Xiu is out of CAI''s house drunk, he can be taken down on the way back. "


    Ling you''s mind turned and said, "my Lord, Huang Chengyan also went to Cai''s house. In the evening, Huang Chengyan also accompanied Zhang Xiu. When we kill Zhang Xiu, do we want to kill Huang Chengyan? "


    "Kill


    Zhou Zhong answered in a voice.


    Zhou Zhong''s eyes were murderous. He said coldly, "Huang Chengyan is a famous scholar in Jingzhou, and he will soon be Zhang Xiu''s father-in-law. Just imagine, when we get the news that Liu Biao even killed Huang Chengyan in order to kill Zhang Xiu. According to the news, not only the Huang family in Jingzhou will fight against Liu Biao, but also the old part of Zhang Xiu will be killed. At that time, there will be a good play in Jingzhou. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Ling you''s face was full of expectation.


    He is looking forward to the action in the evening.


    Suddenly, Ling you said: "my Lord, do you want to take part in Zhang Xiu''s hand in the evening?"


    "Of course


    Zhou nodded his head and said: "Zhang Xiu is invincible with a pistol, and has few rivals. He is not easy to be compared with. Even if we let Cai Mao intoxicate Zhang Xiu, he has martial arts skills. "


    "It''s not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu with your martial arts."


    "I personally, can kill Zhang Xiu in the shortest time, and then quickly evacuate."


    "We must move fast and not delay much time. Once the time is delayed, Liu Biao''s people are likely to come after us. If we are caught by them, Liu Biao can shirk responsibility and say that we killed Zhang Xiu. "


    "It''s quite dangerous, so give it a shot," Zhou said


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Ling you talks again.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhou Zhong stands up, takes Ling you out of the Inn and goes to the place where all his subordinates lie in ambush.

 Chapter 138

    Zhang Xiu stares at Zhou Zhong, but he agrees with CAI Mao''s analysis.


    This person''s behavior is different from that of ordinary people.


    His style is more like a person in charge of command.


    Zhang Xiu lowered her voice and said in a deep voice: "uncle, immediately arrange someone to send a message and block the nearby intersection. The people in the carriage can delay for a while, and now is our chance to block the intersection. "


    "Good!"


    Cai Mao nodded.


    He immediately ordered to go down, the soldiers around, quickly leave, straight to the command.


    Time goes by little.


    Zhou Zhong and Ling you, a group of nearly 30 people, ran fast and rushed to the carriage.


    Zhou Zhong said: "Ling you, put down the horses."


    "Here it is


    When Ling you approached the horse for 20 steps, he took out a crossbow from his back and quickly aimed at the horse.


    "Bang!"


    The plane buckled and a crossbow shot out.


    In a short distance of 20 steps, under the rapid shooting of the crossbow, in an instant, it reached the front of the head of the horse. Just listen to a puff, sharp crossbow, through the horse''s head.


    Red blood, immediately gurgling out, dyed the blood on the ground red.


    "Herod!"


    The horse moaned and fell to the ground, and the carriage followed. Sitting in the carriage, the two doubles quickly stabilized their bodies, clenched their swords and prepared for the battle.


    "Kill


    Zhou Zhong gave the order.


    His men, get close.


    At night, the fire was burning.


    It''s more murderous.


    The soldiers under Zhou Zhong''s command were killed in a flash, and they rushed to the carriage fiercely. At the moment when they just rushed to the carriage, the two doubles jumped out of the carriage and rushed to kill with their swords.


    The two men selected by Cai Mao were both valiant generals in the army.


    Martial arts is not weak.


    Two people back to back, join hands in a fight, immediately killed two people under Zhou Zhong''s command. In the face of the soldiers around them, they didn''t panic at all. They quickly stepped out and resisted the attack.


    Zhou Zhong mobilizes his soldiers to besiege him, but his eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. He suddenly feels that something is wrong.


    Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are among the best in the army.


    It shouldn''t be so weak!


    He turns his eyes and looks at the fake Huang Chengyan who is fighting. He feels more wrong. Huang Chengyan is an old man. He is a weak scholar and can''t do martial arts.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Zhou Chong''s eyebrows went up, and he understood immediately. But he didn''t understand why Cai Mao was extremely hostile to Zhang Xiu, and why he chose to help Zhang Xiu instead of helping them.


    There''s something weird here.


    "Withdraw!"


    The situation was so urgent that Zhou couldn''t think twice. He gave the order directly.


    Ling you is puzzled, asked: "adult, why retreat?"


    "Withdraw!" said Zhou Zhong


    He just wanted to explain that there was no time to retreat. But when Zhou Zhong ordered to retreat, the streets suddenly lit up a group of firelight, a torch crackling burning, swaying in the cold wind, emitting firelight, dispelling the darkness.


    Dense soldiers appeared in the street, blocking the retreat of Zhou Zhong and others.


    All around, it''s blocked.


    Cai Mao and Zhang Xiu are striding forward.


    When Ling you saw Cai Mao, he reached out and pointed at him. His eyes were cold and said, "my Lord, the man with the sword is Cai Mao."


    Zhou Zhong nodded.


    However, he quickly looked around and saw that there were Jingzhou soldiers all around him. It was impossible for him to retreat completely.


    Only fight to the death!


    Only by fighting to the death can we break through the encirclement.


    Zhou Zhong didn''t take charge of the fake Zhang Xiu and Huang Chengyan. He stared at Cai Mao, who was striding forward. As he prepared to break through, he said in a loud voice: "Cai Mao, why betray us?"


    "Betrayal?"


    Cai Mao clenched the sword in his hand and said with disdain: "Jiangdong and Jingzhou are feuds. When you find me, I''m just scheming. I''m lying to Ling you. I''m deliberately trying to stabilize Ling you. You people from Jiangdong should be killed if you go to Jingzhou to make trouble. "


    Zhou Zhong''s eyes were dignified and said, "I really underestimated you, Cai Mao. Unexpectedly, you didn''t care about your personal feud."


    Cai Mao said: "cut the crap, lay down your arms and surrender, and save your life. If you insist on resisting, you will be killed. "


    Zhou Zhong said: "Jiangdong Erlang, who is so bloody, is he afraid of death?"


    "Kill


    Zhou Zhong gave the order.


    He led his soldiers to Cai Mao.


    Zhou Zhong''s target is Cai Mao. He wants to capture the thief and the king. Among these Jingzhou soldiers, Cai Mao was the chief General. As long as Cai Mao was captured, he could coerce Jingzhou soldiers and withdraw from Xiangyang.


    Cai Mao took his sword and said, "Jiang Ping, give this man to me and Ling you to you.""No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu holds a long gun with sharp eyes.


    The gun he used was found in CAI Mao''s treasury. It was nine feet and nine inches long. It was forged with fine iron. It was silvery white. The point of the gun was even sharper.


    He locks Ling you, drags a long gun, and steps to kill Ling you.


    Ling you''s martial arts are also very powerful. He used a six foot long knife and saw Zhang Xiu kill him. His eyes were full of war. What he wants is to quickly kill the people who come to kill him, and then help Zhou Zhong win Cai Mao.


    When approaching Zhang Xiu, Ling you swung his long knife and cut it off.


    The blade fell and the cold light flashed.


    The big gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand shakes and sweeps out. In an instant, it bumps into the chopping blade.


    "Dang!"


    The moment the weapon struck, Mars was splashing.


    Peiran''s strength, from the impact of anti shock, but Zhang Xiu is not affected. The long gun in his hand, like flowing water, was quickly pulled back and stabbed out like lightning.


    The tip of the gun came out as fast as lightning.


    Ling you keeps resisting, but he''s scared.


    How fast!


    Under the long gun attack of Zhang Xiu, he was totally unable to resist.


    Ling you''s speed of putting out the knife is more uncertain about the direction of the spear, so he has to keep retreating.


    Zhang Xiu a move to power, step by step, constant attack. Under the fast-paced attack of Zhang Xiu, Ling you was more and more stretched out in the process of retreat, showing an invincible situation.


    "Who are you?"


    Ling you feels surprised in the heart, opened mouth to ask a sentence.


    He didn''t feel right.


    Jingzhou territory, when there is such a general.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t say a word, but still attacks quickly. Under his attack, Ling you Dao suddenly moves old, revealing a flaw in her chest. Zhang Xiu moved forward with an arrow, quickly narrowing the distance between the two sides.


    Sharp spear, in the air a turn, from the armpit forward out.


    The point of the gun is like a poisonous snake.


    Quick and tricky!


    "Puchi!"


    In an instant, the tip of the gun reaches Lingyou''s chest and penetrates Lingyou''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu hand force, gun tip agitation, directly smashed Ling you''s heart. When the spear was drawn out, the red blood splashed from Lingyou''s chest, like a spring.


    Zhang Xiu eyes sharp, said: "remember, kill you, is Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    Ling you stares big eyes.


    He was shocked and regretted. As long as I knew that he was against Zhang Xiu, he would not play against Zhang Xiu alone.


    The gap is too big.


    The next moment, Ling you breathing a stagnation, in front of the line of sight, then become blurred. His strong body leaned back and fell to the ground with a bang.


    "Jiang Ping, help me!"


    Suddenly, Cai Mao''s voice came.


    But Cai Mao and Zhou Zhong fought each other. Although he had some martial arts, his martial arts were not good enough for Zhou Zhong. Even though he barely resisted, he had no room to fight back and had been in crisis several times.


    Cai Mao can only ask for help quickly.


    When Zhang Xiu heard the sound, she turned around with a long gun and headed for Cai Mao. He was only about 15 steps away from Cai Mao. He was not far away, but he met many obstacles when he went to kill Cai Mao.


    Zhou Zhong''s soldiers keep killing.


    Their intention is to delay the rescue time of Zhang Xiu and create opportunities for Zhou Zhong. As long as Zhou Zhong takes Cai Mao first and takes Cai Mao as a hostage, Zhou Zhong can make Jingzhou soldiers flinch from the rat and then withdraw from Xiangyang.

 Chapter 139

    Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers who resisted him with fierce eyes and endless killing intention on her face.


    This time he returned to Xiangyang to marry Huang Yueying. Liu Biao actively released his good intentions to seek peace. Under his persuasion, he won the whole Nanyang County.


    I thought everything was going well, but I didn''t expect that people in Jiangdong intended to kill him.


    This is what Zhang Xiu can''t bear.


    If you kill me, I will kill you!


    Zhang Xiu is not a clay Bodhisattva.


    He took the long gun in his hand and rushed forward quickly. Seeing two warriors dressed in black come to kill him, he stands steadily at his feet and sweeps with his long gun.


    The spear was like a stick, and it was swept on the chests of the two warriors.


    They fell to the ground.


    He had a long gun in his hand, which was extremely flexible. Sometimes it was hard and fierce, sometimes it was light and traceless, sometimes it was as fast as lightning. Where he passed, warriors in black kept falling to the ground.


    Or death, or serious injury.


    Originally, under the siege of CAI Mao''s soldiers, Zhou Zhong''s men were already unstoppable, showing a precarious situation. There were not many people left.


    In Zhang Xiu''s killing, there is little left.


    The people who stood in front of Zhang Xiu were killed one after another. Only the remaining two people, who had been frightened by Zhang Xiu, stood beside Zhou Zhong and did not dare to move forward.


    At the moment, Cai Mao is in trouble.


    He wielded his sword and collided with Zhou Zhong''s long gun. Under the impact of the turbulent force, Cai Mao''s mouth was numb. He couldn''t hold a gun in his hand, so he was knocked out.


    Chou Chong''s eyes were sharp. He stabbed Cai Mao in front of him.


    "My life is over!"


    Cai Mao shivered with fright.


    He has no way to avoid it.


    Just when Cai Mao was anxious, Zhang Xiu had already kept up. Zhang Xiu was calm, and she came to Cai Mao''s body with a lunge. As soon as she picked out her long gun, the barrel of the gun ran from bottom to top and hit Zhou Zhong''s barrel.


    "Pa!"


    The guns collided.


    Under the impact of strength, Zhou Zhong''s gun tip lost its alignment and immediately deviated from the direction.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Cai Mao escaped from death, gasping for breath, and his face was still palpitating.


    It''s scary.


    Almost, just a little bit, he''s going to die.


    Zhou Zhong was ruined by Zhang Xiu, and his face was immediately gloomy. He glanced and saw Ling you killed. He said in a deep voice, "who are you?"


    In a low voice, Zhang Xiu said, "you''re trying to kill me. You''re trying to stir up civil strife in Jingzhou, so that Jiangdong can make a profit. Don''t you know who I am? "


    "Are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhou Zhong''s face was dignified.


    He knows that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are very strong, even if Zhou Zhong and Ling you join hands, they are not sure. Just so, he set a trap, hoping to let Cai Mao intoxicate Zhang Xiu, and then kill Zhang Xiu.


    Unexpectedly, Cai Mao pretended to agree not to cooperate with them and instead surrounded and killed them.


    Now he faces Zhang Xiu alone, and his heart is even more flustered.


    There were only two or three soldiers left.


    The rest were killed.


    Zhou Zhong looked at Cai Mao and said, "Cai Mao, Cai Mao, you are not a man. In the face of a yellow mouthed child, he could bear the humiliation of being a prisoner. The head of the grand Cai family, such behavior is despised. "


    Cai Mao said, "whatever you say, if you don''t surrender, you will die."


    Zhang Xiu took the words and said, "if you surrender now, you can still save your life. If you choose to carry it to the end, then today next year will be your memorial day. "


    Zhou Zhong clenched his gun and said: "I, Zhou Zhong, would rather die than surrender. Since we can''t escape, we''ll fight to the death. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will help you!"


    He is trying to catch the live, and then bring it to trial, so as to attack more forces of Jiangdong.


    If Zhou''s weight doesn''t fall, he won''t stay.


    Zhang Xiu holding a long gun, proud way: "come on, let me see you Zhou Zhong, in the end what ability."


    "Kill


    Knowing that he was defeated, Zhou Zhong took the lead in attacking, intending to seize the opportunity. He has a long gun in his hand, and his shooting is very fast. As soon as the barrel of the gun shakes, the sharp point of the gun comes to Zhang Xiu in an instant.


    When it comes to the understanding of guns, Zhou Zhong and Zhang Xiu are different.


    Zhang Xiu has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. She has been around for decades with a golden gun. In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, Zhou Zhong''s marksmanship is full of flaws.


    The body side, then dodges the attack.


    "Your shot is too heavy on strength. It lacks flexibility and agility."


    Zhang Xiu opens her mouth and the gun shakes.


    His long gun was moving forward, and even faster. In an instant, it was in front of Zhou Zhong. Even if Zhou Shiyan waved his gun, his moves seemed to be completely seen through in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.As soon as the move came out, it was interrupted by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhou Zhong had to keep retreating, but in his heart, he had to vomit blood,


    this restrained him too much.


    Zhou Zhong''s martial arts is better than Ling you''s, but at this moment, Zhou Zhong is in front of Zhang Xiu. It seems that a child meets an adult, and he feels too big.


    Two people fight more than ten moves, Zhang Xiu spear like a stick, sweeping out.


    "Pa!"


    It''s hard. It''s heavy on the belly. Under the impact of the brute force, Zhou Zhong snorted. He was struck by lightning, his back was bent, and he staggered twice, then fell back to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu stepped forward with an arrow.


    He came to Zhou Zhong, the long gun fell and stopped three inches above Zhou Zhong''s heart. As long as he makes a little more effort, the long gun will pierce Zhou Zhong''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t start. She said, "come on, take it down!"


    "It''s impossible to try me!"


    Zhou Chongyi gritted his teeth, endured the pain of his body, and met him fiercely.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun pierces Zhou Zhong''s heart and penetrates his body.


    Zhang Xiu with the fastest speed to pull out the gun, want to stay alive, but still a step late. The tip of the gun pierced the heart, and the blood splashed out like a spring, and dyed Zhou Zhong''s clothes red.


    Zhou Zhonghen stares at Zhang Xiu and bites his teeth. He looks like he wants to kill Zhang Xiu. But after his heart was punctured, his body seemed to be hollowed out, his brain became confused, and his eyes became shaking and blurred.


    "Bang!"


    His body, then fell down.


    The focus of the pupil in Zhou Zhong''s eyes immediately spread out, and there was no consciousness at all. With Zhou Zhong around, only two or three of the remaining warriors saw this, and they did not hesitate to commit suicide.


    This scene shocked Zhang Xiu.


    The hidden pile in Xiangyang arranged by Jiangdong is so fearless of death, which shows the power of sun CE in Jiangdong.


    Sun CE is not an easy man.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Cai Mao and said, "uncle, all the people are dead. Please report this to Liu Jingzhou. "


    "Good!"


    Cai Mao nodded.


    He looked at Zhou Zhong who was lying on the ground and had lost his breath. His eyes were cold. If it wasn''t for Zhou Zhong''s suicide, he would never have let Zhou Zhong die so easily. He had to let Zhou Zhong survive rather than die.


    "Take all the people away!"


    Cai Mao gave the order.


    Cai Mao didn''t go back to Cai''s house. Instead, he went to the prefecture and asked Liu Biao to repay him.


    Zhang Xiu first went back to Cai''s home. After receiving Huang Chengyan, they took a carriage and went to Huang''s home.


    "What''s the situation?" Huang asked


    Zhang Xiu replied, "everything is going well. This time, even the private soldiers arranged at home have not been dispatched. The power of Jiangdong has been completely won. Everyone is dead. "


    Huang Chengyan said, "is there no living one?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "these people would rather die than be caught alive. Jiang Dongan''s disguises in Xiangyang are not only courageous and resourceful, but also look upon death as if it were home. It''s really not simple. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "no matter how much, it''s good to solve the problem safely."


    Zhang Xiu also nodded.


    After he and Huang Chengyan returned to the house, Huang Yueying quickly met Zhang Xiu and looked up and down. Seeing that Zhang Xiu was safe, her face was relaxed.


    Huang Chengyan stood aside, feeling congested.


    This girl only sees Zhang Xiu, only cares about Zhang Xiu, completely ignores his existence.


    It''s worrying.


    It''s really hard for women to stay.


    Huang Chengyan snorted, haughtily holding his head and hands on his back, and went straight into the house.


    Huang Yueying is not in the mood to take into account Huang Chengyan. She knows that her father must be OK. Instead, she is worried about Zhang Xiu''s safety and asks for details.


    Zhang Xiu answers one by one.


    Two people you Nong I Nong some, Zhang Xiu send Huang Yueying back to the room to rest, just return to their own yard to rest.

 Chapter 140

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu gets up early for morning exercise. Although today''s cold, the sky is still floating with snow, but he practiced martial arts in the wind and snow, still enjoy it.


    It''s a habit he developed.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu finished her morning exercise, Huang Yueying came.


    Now, Huang Yueying has already found out Zhang Xiu''s living habits, when she gets up and when she does morning exercises. She brought porridge and vegetables, which were neither hot nor cold. The temperature was just right.


    "Brother Jiang Ping, come to dinner."


    She came into the room with her food boxes and laid them out one by one.


    Although it''s in the morning, there are a lot of dishes, which are very attractive and appetizing.


    Zhang Xiu said thanks, also not polite, quickly eat up. Zhang Xiu''s appetite is always excellent, and the temperature of the porridge is just right. The porridge brought by Huang Yueying soon enters Zhang Xiu''s stomach, and the small dishes he brings are clean.


    Huang Yueying is even more happy in her eyes.


    The happier Zhang Xiu is eating, the more she has a sense of accomplishment.


    It''s like making weapons.


    Huang Yueying didn''t stay in the yard for a long time. She packed her food box and left to do her own business.


    Zhang Xiu is reading in the yard.


    At the end of the day, Huang Chengyan came to the courtyard of Zhang Xiu, with a faint smile on his face. He said with a straight face: "just received the news from the prefecture, Liu Biao hung all the bodies of Jiangdong dark pile at the gate of the city, and wanted to expose them for three days."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Huang Zu killed Sun Jian. The hatred between Liu Biao and sun CE is unparalleled. He is extremely afraid of Jiangdong. We have killed so many people this time and found so many hidden piles lurking in Jiangdong. We should punish them severely to frighten Jiangdong. "


    "It''s true," said Huang


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant came in and reported: "master, Pang Gong is coming and waiting in the hall."


    "I see."


    Huang Chengyan nodded.


    After the attendants left, Huang Chengyan and Zhang Xiu went out of the yard together and soon came to the hall.


    "Teacher!"


    Zhang Xiu bowed to salute.


    Pang Degong stroked his beard under his jaw, sat down and said with a smile, "Jiang Ping, as soon as I got back to lumen mountain, I got the news that you had won all the counties in Nanyang County. You boy, it''s really not easy. You let Liu Biao agree. It''s like grabbing food from the tiger''s mouth. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the teacher''s praise is wrong. It''s all due to interests!"


    Pang''s eyes turned and fell on Huang Chengyan. He said, "Chengyan, about the wedding date of Jiang Ping and Yueying, I''d like to invite someone to fix it on December 28. It''s the best auspicious day."


    Immediately, he took out a letter and handed in the appointment.


    In addition, it needs a lot of etiquette, gifts, etc., and Lord pound is ready.


    Everything has been done.


    Huang Chengyan took it over, looked at it roughly, put it aside, and said with a smile, "I''m at ease with Pang Gong''s arrangement. In that case, it will be December 28. At that time, Jiang Ping will meet his relatives in Xiangyang City and then go to lumen mountain. "


    Mr. pound shook his head and said, "no, I think about it carefully. If I don''t go to lumen mountain to hold the wedding, it''s in Xiangyang City."


    Huang Chengyan said: "how has it changed?"


    Pang Degong replied, "it''s more than ten miles from Xiangyang City to lumen mountain. Now it snows every day, it''s cold and the road is easy to slip. If there''s any accident when we''re on our way, it''s not beautiful. "


    "Besides, Xiangyang is more prosperous."


    "In Xiangyang City, Jiang Ping''s marriage will be more grand."


    "Pang family has an industry in lumen mountain, as well as in Xiangyang City. I will take out a pang''s house as Jiang Pingcheng''s residence after his marriage. "


    Pound Justice: "in this way, whether it is married, or marriage arrangements, will be more lively."


    "Who are you going to entertain?" Huang said


    Pound''s jaw rose slightly, and he threw the ground and said in a voice: "what I''m thinking about is taking the house in the south of the city as the residence for Jiang Ping''s marriage. Because the place is relatively remote, there are enough places to put enough tables and chairs. At that time, I will arrange a banquet for three days. Anyone who wants to come can come to the party. "


    Zhang Xiu is grateful to Pang Degong.


    As far as the relationship is concerned, he has no blood relationship with Lord pound. But since he became a teacher, pound treated him like a teacher and a father. He thought about everything for him.


    One day as a teacher, one life as a father.


    When so!


    Huang Chengyan also raised his eyebrows. He was quite surprised and said, "Mr. Huang, the banquet for three days. It takes three days for a gift to come. It''s not a small amount. "


    Pang Degong said with a smile: "as a teacher, he has no ability to help Jiang Ping. We can only do more in this respect. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the teacher''s great kindness is remembered by embroidery."For Zhang Xiu, it''s a great kindness for Pang Degong to manage his marriage.


    Pang Degong chuckled, but he didn''t like it. He said, "but there''s one thing, Jiang Ping, you have to decide for yourself."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    "On the wedding day, after paying homage to heaven and earth, you also need to meet your parents and offer tea to your relatives and elders. Your parents died, your only uncle also went, no family is alive. Do you want to skip this link or how to arrange it? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "teacher, you have to do this for me. Now it''s time for me and my parents to die. "


    Pound said: "I''m afraid that''s not right!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "a teacher is a father all his life. A teacher is like a disciple''s father. Unless the teacher doesn''t want to? "


    "Of course I will!"


    Pound stroked his beard and answered with a satisfied smile on his face.


    Such things, he had to tell Zhang Xiu, let Zhang Xiu to decide. Because on the day of marriage, there will be countless guests. Although Pang Degong is Zhang Xiu''s teacher, he can''t do whatever he wants, otherwise he will be easily criticized.


    If there is Zhang Xiu, as the father of the man, he accepts the new man''s offer of tea.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s settled."


    "Good!"


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan talk about the other marriage process. Zhang Xiu just listens.


    He''s not involved in anything.


    After all, he didn''t really know.


    After Pang Degong made all the arrangements, Zhang Xiu didn''t stay in the Huang family any more. Instead, she left with Pang Degong and went to Pang''s house in the south of the city to arrange the wedding.


    In the busy, time flies.


    At the same time, the news that Zhang Xiu is about to marry Huang Yueying is also spread in Xiangyang City. The news that Lord pound was going to hold a banquet also spread.


    Xiangyang City people and dignitaries, all know this thing.


    Many people talk about it.


    Among the comments of countless people, December 28 came in a flash.


    On this day, it is rare to clear up.


    There is no longer snow in the sky, but the warm sun in winter.


    Since she got up early in the morning, Zhang Xiu was like a puppet and was under the command of Pound''s police platoon. From morning to afternoon, he had almost no rest. When it was almost time for Shenshi, Zhang Xiu rode out on his horse and went to Huang''s home with a welcoming team.


    In ancient times, they got married at night.


    "Baihutong" records: "marriage, that evening salute, so called marriage."


    Zhang Xiu with the wedding team on the way, not long, has come to the door of the Huang family. The welcoming procession was long and winding across the street.


    Around, there are countless people watching.


    The whole scene was quite lively.


    And the sound of beating gongs and drums accompanied, bustling, incomparable festivity.


    Zhang Xiu rode on a high horse, dressed in a red robe of joy, with a smile on her face. When he brought people to Huang''s door and stopped, he was ready to welcome them. But at this time, a young man suddenly came out.


    The visitor was ordinary and dressed in black, but between his eyes and eyebrows, he was quite rebellious. Zhang Xiu was also surprised to see this man, because it was not someone else, but Pang Tong.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu and pangtong went north and left pangtong in Luyang county to take charge of Anthracite mining.


    Now I''m in Xiangyang.


    Zhang Xiu knows Pang Tong''s character clearly. It must be Pang Tong who went down to the south when he got the news of his marriage. He believed that Pang Tong would make arrangements for Lushan coal mine when he left Lushan.


    Otherwise, it is impossible to go south.


    With a faint smile on his face, Pang Tong said with a light smile: "Lord, I just went south to Xiangyang after I arranged for the mine. Finally, it arrived last night. You can''t go in directly. You have to pass the customs. "

 Chapter 141

    Zhang Xiu is very indifferent, said with a smile: "Shiyuan, you say, what pass?"


    To welcome a wedding is to be lively.


    Pang Tong stopped Zhang Xiu, not to set up obstacles, but to make the marriage hot and noisy.


    Pang Tong said: "everyone in Xiangyang knows that the Lord is quick in thinking and can write poems in seven steps. The original plan of humble duty was to let the Lord recite poems, but it was not challenging. My condition is to ask the Lord to write an article praising Yueying''s beauty. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard it, she chuckled.


    It''s too easy.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t think about it at all. She said in a loud voice: "she is rich in appearance, with Zhuang Shu Xi, with a warm and moist jade face. The eyes are bright and beautiful. The eyebrows are full of moths, and the red lips are full of elixirs. "


    "Stop! Stop


    But when Pang Tong heard it, he immediately stopped.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Pang Tong snorted and said, "my Lord, don''t deceive me into reading less. This is an excerpt from the ode to the goddess. It means that Yueying is full-bodied, reserved and beautiful in appearance, mild and moist in appearance, bright eyes, long eyebrows, red lips and white skin. But this was said by the ancients, not by the Lord himself. Lord, you can''t pick out a chapter, you have to describe it yourself. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "then come again."


    Pang Tong said, "it must be!"


    Zhang Xiu thought about Luo Shen Fu.


    The earliest description of women was Song Yu''s "goddess Fu", which influenced many scholars, such as Cao Zhi''s "Luo Shen Fu" and Wang can''s "goddess Fu".


    In many articles about women, Cao Zhi is a master.


    Luo Shen Fu is the most famous.


    Today, Cao Zhi is only a child of three or four years old, and Luoshen Fu has not yet come out.


    It can be borrowed.


    After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu said: "its shape is as graceful as a bird, as graceful as a dragon. Rongyao autumn chrysanthemum, Huamao spring pine. It''s like the moon covered by light clouds, and it''s like the snow covered by the wind. "


    "If you look at it from a distance, it''s as bright as the sun rising in the morning; if you look at it from a distance, it''s as bright as other waves."


    "It''s a good idea to make the fiber short and fit well."


    "Shoulder if cut into, waist if about plain."


    "Yanjingxiu, Haozhi revealed. There is no fragrance, but there is no beauty. Yun ji e e, Xiumei lianjuan. The red lips are bright outside, the white teeth are fresh inside, the eyes are bright, and the dimples are complementary


    Zhang Xiu read out the whole paragraph, gorgeous rhetoric, implied rhyme, catchy, people clap.


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    When Pang Tong heard the speech, he was also amazed.


    The description in this paragraph is really wonderful. Huang Yueying is described like a goddess. The people blocking the door of the Huang family all ponder what Zhang Xiu said just now. Some of the women''s family members have a look of longing on their faces.


    Zhang xiudao: "Shiyuan, can you enter?"


    Pang Tong said, "please, Lord!"


    He blocked the door for the sake of excitement and praise for Huang Yueying.


    Now, the goal has been achieved.


    Wearing a happy robe, Zhang Xiu strides into the mansion. When she saw Huang Yueying, Huang Yueying was sitting in front of her in a hat. Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, Zhang Xiu carried Huang Yueying out of her house and went to her house.


    Before dusk, the group arrived.


    When the wedding procession stops outside the residence, Sima Hui will guide them to let Huang Yueying and Zhang Xiu go on according to the etiquette. At this time, both Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying became puppets carrying strings. They could only listen to Sima Hui''s arrangement.


    Worship heaven and earth, worship hall, husband and wife worship, the end of the ceremony, Huang Yue Ying was sent to the bridal chamber.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay in the room, so she had to return to the living room to entertain the guests.


    Today''s guests are mostly dignitaries.


    For example, Liu Biao, Cai Mao, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue and so on, as long as they were from Jingzhou to Xiangyang, all dignified people came to the wedding banquet, which was very lively.


    Zhang Xiu went to toast table by table, and it didn''t end until late at night.


    Seeing off the guests, Zhang Xiu was able to relax. Now, dressed in a red robe of joy, he came to the new house and looked at Huang Yueying sitting beside the bed, with a smile on her face.


    He''s finally married!


    Although Zhang Xiu married Huang Yueying, everything was very smooth, and there was no stumbling. But it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to marry someone she likes.


    He sat down in front of Huang Yueying and lifted Huang Yueying''s cover.


    A happy and angry cheek is reflected in Zhang Xiu''s eyes. Today''s Huang Yueying, with light make-up on her face, is very beautiful. At a glance, it makes people feel swaying.


    "Brother Jiang Ping!"


    Huang Yueying was a little shy by Zhang Xiu. She hung her head and raised a little shy on her face.


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s also called brother Jiangping. I have to change my name."


    "My husband!"


    Huang Yueying called.


    Her big eyes are watery, as if the autumn waves are rippling, which makes her feel pity. After drinking the wine, they took off their hair and tied it together.It''s a very cold winter night.


    But there is charcoal burning in the room, dispelling the chill, the room is incomparably warm, not the slightest cold.


    On the bed, the two were close together.


    Beautiful atmosphere, gradually breeding.


    With each piece of clothing flying out, the two people on the bed were soon entangled together, and a faint gasp came out.


    I don''t know when the sound will subside.


    The clouds dissipated and the room was completely quiet.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    It''s rare that Zhang Xiu didn''t get up early. She didn''t get up with Huang Yueying until she went to bed.


    Today, Lord pound is still in the mansion.


    Since the day before yesterday, the banquet has been open. To the day before yesterday and three consecutive days of banquet, pound was very busy and very hard. Even last night, Mr. pound was very busy and hard.


    Zhang Xiu takes Huang Yueying to offer tea to Pang Degong.


    For Zhang Xiu, Pang Degong is just like her father.


    After tea, they returned to the courtyard.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying stayed at home for two days. On the third day, they took Huang Yueying back to visit Huang Chengyan and his wife. When the two returned, pound prepared a large number of gifts for Zhang Xiu to take.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in Huang''s house for a day, then took Huang Yueying back to her house. After dinner, Zhang Xiu found Pang Degong and said, "teacher, the trip to Xiangyang is now a complete success. Nanyang County, there are many things, I am ready to go north


    "It''s better to go north earlier!"


    Pang Degong said: "now that you have settled the quarrel with Liu Biao, you''d better go and say goodbye when you leave for the north. Liu Biao doesn''t hold you back. For you, it''s an opportunity to expand your strength quickly. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "what the teacher said is true!"


    They said a lot of things. Late at night, Zhang Xiu returned to her room.


    The next day, Zhang Xiu went to zhoumu Prefecture and said goodbye to Liu in person. Liu Biao is very pleased to see Zhang Xiu come to say goodbye in person.


    Only with some entrustment can Zhang Xiu leave.


    Zhang Xiu takes Huang Yueying to Huang''s home again. At last, she returns and asks Huang Yueying to pack up and set off for the north.


    Pang Tong had already gone north.


    He went down from Luyang county and stayed in Xiangyang for only one day. On the second day of Zhang Xiu''s wedding, Pang Tong went north first and rushed back to Luyang county to deal with the coal mine.


    In January, the weather is still cold.


    Even more snowy.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying returned to Yuyang County in early January. After returning to the prefect''s residence, Huang Yueying settled down in the back yard, while Zhang Xiu went to the study.


    The first thing he did was to summon Xu Shu and ask, "Yuanzhi, what''s the matter recently?"


    Xu Shu looked dignified and said in a deep voice: "there is really a big event."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Xu Shu replied: "according to the information sent back by the sentinel, a large number of Cao troops were stationed at the border between Nanyang County and Yanzhou. He speculated that Cao Cao might attack Nanyang County after the Spring Festival. "

 Chapter 142

    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face immediately became serious.


    In his impression, Cao Cao should have a period of time before he could send troops to attack Nanyang. But this life, but it is early on the border, made to attack Nanyang County intention.


    Obviously, this is the threat brought by Zhang Xiu''s strength enhancement.


    In fact, the strength of Zhang Xiu today is quite different from that of the first generation.


    Once upon a time, he did not have many troops.


    Today, strength has increased too much.


    It is reasonable for Cao Cao to arrange ahead of time. In the rapid expansion of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao did not stop it. Once Zhang Xiu''s strength expanded to Guanzhong, Cao Cao would have a headache.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, suppressed her surprise, and said: "in this way, our plan of going north to attack Guanzhong in the next year can only be put on hold. At present, the first priority is to spare no effort to resist Cao Cao. "


    "Yes


    Xu Shu nodded solemnly.


    When Cao Cao went south, Xu Shu also had great pressure.


    Cao Cao gave orders to the princes and ruled Yanzhou, Qingzhou and part of Yuzhou. He was second only to Yuan Shao in Hebei Province. Zhang Xiu is just a county. It''s very stressful for anyone to resist Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu had a fierce look in her eyes. She clenched her fist and threw a voice: "if Cao Cao wants to fight, we will fight. Although our strength is weaker, we are not without the strength of the first World War. "


    Zhang Xiu is full of resentment towards Cao''s family.


    Once upon a time, Cao Cao forcibly occupied his aunt Zou''s family, humiliating his Uncle Zhang Ji.


    Once upon a time, Cao Pi forced him to death.


    Now, Zhang Xiu wants to get all this back one by one.


    Knowing that he had to fight, Xu Shu said, "if you want to fight Cao Cao, you''ll have to prepare to go north and stay in Luyang county to resist with layout. Luyang county and Yanzhou border, and anthracite in, is a very important place. There is no room for loss in this place. "


    Nowadays, anthracite has been sold on a large scale in Nanyang County.


    Many people began to use it.


    It''s cheap, after all.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed with Xu Shu''s analysis.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier came into the study and reported: "my Lord, there is a man from outside the mansion. He is about fifty years old. He is elegant and has great bearing. He said that he was your old friend and came from Guanzhong to see you. "


    "Old friend?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    He knew many old friends. How could he remember them in a hurry.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    He thought of a man.


    Zhang xiuceng stood up, looked at Xu Shu and said, "Yuanzhi, follow me to meet him. If it was him, he alone would be worth a thousand troops. "


    "Who?"


    Xu Shu was curious.


    One person is worth thousands of troops, which is not simple, and has been called a national.


    Zhang Xiu did not delay her time and went out immediately.


    Xu Shu followed closely.


    After a short time, they came to the gate of the prefecture. Zhang Xiu looked around and saw the old man outside the house clearly. On her angular face, she showed a bright smile.


    If it was him!


    It was Jia Xu who came.


    In his first life, Jia Xu went to Zhang Xiu from Guanzhong to Nanyang. He was a counselor around Zhang Xiu and gave advice for him. Unfortunately, at that time, Zhang Xiu didn''t have the ambition to compete in the world, and her character was rough, brave and resourceless, so she couldn''t be supported by mud.


    Even if Jia Xu''s wisdom is outstanding, it will not help.


    In the end, Jia Xu became Cao Cao''s counselor.


    Zhang Xiu saw Jia Xu with a smile on her face. She closed her hands and said, "Mr. Wenhe, I haven''t seen you for many years. You are still elegant."


    When he was in the Xiliang army, he knew Jia Xu, and the relationship between the two sides was good.


    That''s why Jia Xu went south.


    Of course, Zhang Xiu also knows Jia Xu''s situation. It must have been Jia Xu who didn''t think much of Li Xi and Guo Si, so he left Guanzhong and went south to Nanyang County to seek a place for him.


    Jia Xu was stunned to see Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu in front of him is quite different from Zhang Xiu in his impression.


    Zhang Xiu, once a martial arts man, was vulgar in speech, reckless in behavior, and impetuous in hair. She was not so calm, and her temper was also quite impatient. She was a man who didn''t understand.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is as warm as jade. A station at the door, there is a superior who is not humble posture, let a person like spring breeze, is very comfortable.


    In fact, Jia Xu arrived in Yuyang county early.


    He left Guanzhong last year and came to Yuyang county to join Zhang Xiu.


    But when Jia Xu arrived, Zhang Xiu happened to go to Xiangyang to ask for a marriage, which caused Jia Xu to find no one. So Jia Xu stayed in Yuyang county. Knowing that Zhang Xiu came back, he immediately came to see her.


    During his stay in Yuyang County, he learned all kinds of news about Zhang Xiu.All the news shocked Jia Xu.


    Is this Zhang Xiu he knows?


    There has been such a big change.


    Jia Xu''s original intention was to find a place to live. He didn''t ask for anything else but to settle down under Zhang Xiu. But after listening to Zhang Xiu''s deeds, he also vaguely hopes that Zhang Xiu is a master.


    It''ll show him what he''s good at.


    Jia Xu returned to his senses and said with a smile, "the old lady Zhang Zhesha is. Old and rotten wood can''t afford such a big gift from empress dowager Zhang. Now, I can''t stay in Guanzhong, so I''ve come to go to Zhang Taizhou. I hope Zhang Taizhou will accept me. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s Zhang Xiu''s honor that Mr. Wenhe can come. Please


    "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to return the gift, which was incorporated with Zhang Xiuyi.


    Xu Shu also followed him back, but he was curious. Although the old man in front of him had extraordinary bearing and handled appropriately, there was nothing particularly outstanding.


    Entering the hall, the guests and the host take their seats.


    Zhang Xiu immediately introduced Xu Shu to Jia Xu, and said that Xu Shu was the county magistrate. She also introduced Jia Xu to Xu Shu, and then said, "Mr. Wenhe is new here. How about being a right military adviser?"


    "No problem!"


    Jia Xu answered directly.


    He is also clear about the situation under Zhang Xiu''s command. He knows that Pang Tong is the military adviser beside Zhang Xiu. Now when he comes, he will serve as the right military adviser, which can be regarded as Zhang Xiu''s confidant.


    It''s already pretty good.


    For Jia Xu, that''s enough!


    As a matter of fact, Jia Xu himself is not very keen on power.


    He only wanted a safe place in troubled times. If he asked for power, when he was in Chang''an, Dong Zhuo wanted to reuse him, he would not refuse, but refused.


    When he arrived at Li Yu, he also hoped to get Jia Xu''s help. He also wanted to reuse Jia Xu, but he was rejected by Jia Xu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Wenhe, just now I was discussing with Yuanzhi about how to deal with Cao Cao. Now Cao Cao''s troops are stationed at the border of Nanyang County. I''m afraid that he will send his troops south to attack Nanyang County after the Spring Festival. What do you think of that? "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and thought carefully.


    A moment later, Jia Xu said, "if I had expected that, the next step is to go north to Guanzhong and take the place of Guanzhong as the foundation, right?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    It is also very normal to infer from Jia Xu''s wisdom his intention to go north.


    Xu Shu was also surprised.


    He didn''t know Jia Xu, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he pointed out the most confidential things under Zhang Xiu''s command. Zhang Xiu''s next step is indeed to go north to Guanzhong. Although Zhang Xiu told Liu Biao in Xiangyang, in fact, it is a secret in Yuyang county and even Nanyang County.


    For the time being, no one knows the news, but Jia Xu infers it directly.


    That''s great.


    Such people, even Xu Shu, also feel very capable.


    He also cheered up and listened carefully. He wanted to see what Jia Xu could say.

 Chapter 143

    Jia Xu stroked his beard with a smile and said, "it''s right that the next step of the plan is to capture Guanzhong. In today''s Guanzhong area, the Xiliang army is divided into four parts, and each of them is in his own way. "


    "This is the most appropriate time to attack Li Xi and Guo Si."


    "But Cao Cao is not stupid."


    "Cao Cao, who is familiar with the art of war, has a strong vision, and is resolute and heroic. What''s more, there are countless generals and talented people under Cao Cao''s command. "


    "These people are enough to judge the situation in Nanyang County."


    "As long as you are a person with vision, you can no longer be allowed to develop."


    "So Cao Cao would rather shelve the war in Xuzhou and Yangzhou for the time being than let you grow up. Cao Cao''s first task is to contain you. His best plan is to defeat you and capture Nanyang so as to attack Jingzhou. "


    Jia Xu analyzed the reason.


    Although Jia Xu didn''t participate in the process, he said it exactly.


    Xu Shu was surprised, but his face was calm. He continued: "since Mr. Jia has accurate judgment, how are you going to solve it?"


    "It''s not difficult!"


    Jia Xu replied with a smile.


    Xu Shu said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed with curiosity.


    In the first generation, Zhang Xiu''s strength was very weak. And Zhang Xiu herself, no idea of the world, not willing to be Liu Biao''s shield, more afraid of Cao Cao.


    At that time, Cao Cao went south to Xiangyang, and at Jia Xu''s suggestion, he directly subordinated to Cao Cao.


    So that Cao Cao occupied his aunt.


    Although Zhang Xiu finally rebelled against Cao Cao, killed Cao Cao''s son Cao ang, and even killed Cao Cao''s beloved general Dian Wei under Jia Xu''s plan, Zhang Xiu finally chose to surrender and became a minister of Cao Cao''s Royal Highness.


    Now, it''s different.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is strong.


    He would like to see what kind of advice Jia Yu can give.


    Jia Xu is not impatient, light way: "to resist Cao Cao, at least two steps."


    "If the two policies are in parallel, we will win this battle."


    "In the first step, Zhang Taishou led his troops to the north, stationed in the front line of Luyang County, defended the whole line, and then resisted and blocked step by step, constantly weakening Cao Cao''s strength."


    "The final purpose is to lure the enemy into the hinterland of Nanyang County. The reason why we want to lure the enemy into depth is to increase the length of the other party''s grain supply line, so as to facilitate the counterattack. "


    "The second step is to send the debaters to Yangzhou to persuade Yuan Shu to send troops. Cao Shu and Yuan Cao have never dealt with each other. Even under the pressure of Cao Cao, many parts of Yuan Shu were lost. In his heart, Yuan Shu must have wanted revenge. "


    "Cao Cao has to be on guard against Lu Bu in Xuzhou and Yuan Shu''s attack. He can''t bear it."


    "In the end, Cao Cao will withdraw."


    "As soon as Cao Cao withdraws, he can take advantage of the situation to fight back and take Cao Cao by surprise."


    Jia Xu''s eyes twinkled with light and said: "Cao Cao is really powerful, but Cao Cao''s strength is not the most powerful. He is bound to be unable to hold out if he joins hands with Yuan Shu to attack Cao Cao. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    When Xu Shu heard it, he praised it on his own initiative.


    Just now, he was also thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy, but he did not think of uniting Yuan Shu. What I think of is all defense, but I don''t think of the overall situation, and I don''t think of taking actions from the overall situation to restrain Cao Cao''s rear.


    As long as Yuan Shu sent troops, Cao Cao would be affected.


    It''s a wonderful strategy!


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face was also more relaxed. She cheered for Jia Xu''s stratagem and said: "Mr. Wenhe''s stratagem is really wonderful.".


    Jia Xu said with a smile, "how many troops can Zhang Taishou mobilize now?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "there are more than 15000 elite soldiers, including the rest of the auxiliary soldiers, there are more than 20000 soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is constantly increasing.


    There are excellent troops and strong generals, and they are extremely strong.


    After thinking for a while, Jia Xu nodded: "20000 people, enough. In my opinion, even if Cao Cao sent troops, the largest number of troops would be 30000. He is the strong attack side, Zhang Taishou mainly defends, 20000 people and horses are enough to resist


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.


    Jia Xu continued: "the only problem is that once there is a war, it will consume countless money and food. Taishou Zhang, if the war lasts for several months, can you persist? It''s impossible to support without enough money and food. "


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu confidently said, "in terms of money and food, Mr. Wenhe is at ease. When it comes to money and food, I have no shortage. Liu Biao has promised that in the near future, he will send 100000 tons of grain, which is enough to support the war. As for money, it is impossible to run out of money in my Treasury. "


    "Oh, it happened!"


    Jia Xu praised: "with Liu Biao''s support, Zhang Taishou is the best."


    He didn''t doubt Zhang Xiu''s words.When it comes to such an important matter, Zhang Xiu can''t lie.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "Wenhe first came to Yuyang county and temporarily lives in the prefect''s residence. Later, I will ask Yuanzhi to arrange a residence for Mr. Yu Wenhe. "


    "Thank you."


    Jia Xu gave thanks.


    Zhang Xiu arranges for the servant to lead Jia Xu to step down.


    Xu Shu said: "Lord, although Jia Xu came to join us, he never worshipped him. It seems that it is not easy to accept Jia Xu. He does have talent, but is he reliable? "


    "Reliable!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Yuanzhi, you have never been in the Xiliang army, so you don''t know Jia Xu. He is a very resourceful man. He is highly valued by either Dong Zhuo or Li Xi. "


    "Even if Li Ru, Dong Zhuo''s counselor in the past, was respectful to Jia Xu."


    "This man''s stratagem is always vicious."


    "He is more of an egoist."


    "Now I''m obedient. In order to have a foothold and live a stable life, I''ll give you some advice."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Zhi knows that after Wang Yun killed Dong Zhuo, he took control of the court hall and was ready to kill the commander of the Xiliang army. At that time, the generals of the Xiliang army were in a state of panic and prepared to retreat and flee. Who was the one who came up with the plan to make Li Xi, Guo Si and others enter Luoyang and regain control of the government? "


    "Jia Xu?"


    Xu Shu guessed that when it comes to Jia Xu, it must be him.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s really Jia Xu."


    "At the beginning, the court heard that it was going to kill all the generals of the Xiliang army. Jia Xu is also a member of the Xiliang army. In order to protect himself and avoid being investigated for responsibility by the imperial court, he personally persuaded Li Xi and Guo Si to tell them that once they retreat, they will die. "


    "If you enter Luoyang, there is still a chance of life."


    "It''s true!"


    "The Xiliang army gathered together like a fierce tiger, while Wang Yun, who was stationed in Luoyang, was proud and self righteous, and finally ended up in the end of death."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it can be said that Jia Xu''s stratagem directly led to the fall of Huang Quan, and also led to the emperor''s becoming a puppet, resulting in the disaster of the Xiliang army in Guanzhong. But from the perspective of military strategy, Jia Xu''s plan is extremely accurate and can be called a fatal blow. "


    "Hiss!"


    When Xu Shu heard the speech, he took a breath.


    He felt the poison of Jia Xu.


    Xu Shu shook his head and said with emotion: "Jia Xu is really bold and unbridled. If I knew that the Xiliang army would cause death after it entered Luoyang, I would not have done such a trick. "


    "Different people have different ways of dealing with them," Zhang said


    Xu Shu continued: "indeed, I have my bottom line and insistence. I will not disturb the imperial court or harm the innocent people. Jia Xu said that although he was powerful, he was careful to use it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I can grasp this scale. In fact, it''s a good sword to use. With Jia Xu, we can solve a lot of things. "


    Xu Shu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    After a pause, Xu Shu continued: "there are Cao troops in Luyang county. When does the Lord plan to lead the troops north?"


    Zhang Xiu thought a little and said, "after January, although the weather is still cold, it will take at least half a month for the army to start from Yuyang county and reach Luyang County in the north


    "If there is a road jam, it will take even longer, at least a month."


    "When we arrive in Luyang County, it is expected to be spring in February."


    "At that time, the weather was warm and war could begin. Therefore, it is better to go north as soon as possible than later. Tomorrow morning, I will lead the army northward and go to Luyang county


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuanzhi, you are still in the rear, and arrange people to go to Yangzhou to persuade Yuanshu to send troops."


    Xu Shu said, "don''t worry, my Lord. I understand your humble position."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, no more words, let Xu Shu to deal with the things in hand.

 Chapter 144

    When Zhang Xiu returned to the backyard, Huang Yueying was still busy. After all, there is no hostess or maid in your family. There are many things to arrange. Fortunately, when Huang Yueying went north, she brought a lot of people, and everything went well.


    After Zhang Xiu entered, Huang Yueying met her and asked, "my husband is busy with government affairs. How did he come to the backyard. Have you dealt with all the accumulated things? "


    "Well, it''s arranged."


    Zhang Xiu waved to Huang Yueying to take her seat.


    After Huang Yueying sat down, Zhang Xiu also sat down on one side. He reached for Huang Yueying''s shoulder and said helplessly: "Yueying, we are just married. Originally, we should be together more. But now, I have to lead the army north. "


    Huang Yueying became nervous and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "just received the news from Luyang County, Cao Cao stationed troops in Luyang county. After spring, Cao Cao may attack Nanyang County. Now, I have to go north ahead of time to resist the attack of Cao Cao. "


    Brush!


    Huang Yueying''s face changed slightly.


    Her heart suddenly became tense.


    What should I do if I can''t stop it? Cao Cao is not Liu Biao, let alone Gong Du or Liu PI. He is a very powerful and powerful man. Can he resist it?


    Seeing Huang Yueying''s look, Zhang Xiu patted Huang Yueying on the shoulder and said with a smile, "look, you are scared. It''s just Cao Cao. There''s nothing to worry about. Do you think I''ve ever been defeated since my campaign? It''s as easy as a palm to defeat Cao Cao. "


    Huang Yueying nodded solemnly and said, "I believe that my husband will come back with a great victory."


    "That''s a must," Zhang said


    Two people say private words, not aware of the passage of time, in the twinkling of an eye it is evening.


    At night, in the room.


    The lights are bright!


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Yueying are in the room. They have already laid down for a rest, but the atmosphere is very beautiful.


    Two young men and women, entangled.


    Faint gasps, one after another.


    I don''t know. It took a long time for everything to stop.


    The clouds dissipate and the rain stops.


    Huang Yueying''s charming cheek, with a faint blush, a pair of black eyes, mid autumn wave, watery is very attractive. She was soft all over, almost like a pool of mud.


    Zhang Xiu is really strong and strong, and the skill under the bed is too powerful. She is not an opponent at all.


    Huang Yueying put her slender catkin on Zhang Xiu''s chest, rubbed her hand on Zhang Xiu''s chest, and said, "if only I could be pregnant with Zhang''s offspring when my husband comes back."


    Zhang xiudao: "take your time, don''t worry."


    For the offspring, Zhang Xiu is not anxious, he is still young, Huang Yueying is also young.


    They have plenty of time.


    Huang Yueying nods and smiles. Although she doesn''t like female workers, she wants to have children for Zhang Xiu. This is what any woman has in mind after she becomes a wife.


    They chatted and talked. They didn''t know when they would go to sleep.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Huang Yueying got up early and prepared breakfast for Zhang Xiu. After finishing her breakfast, she took out a big red cloak and said, "husband, I sewed it myself. It must be very warm with top-grade fox skin. Come on, I''ll put it on for you to make sure it''s not cold to go to Luyang county. "


    Zhang Xiu took a look.


    The stitches of this fox fur cloak are so crooked that it is hard to be elegant.


    That''s exactly what Huang Yueying did.


    She is not good at women''s work. It''s not easy for her to sew a cloak. I don''t know how much she suffered.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything about the stitches, but the outside of the fox fur cloak was bright red, very bright, very bright.


    Zhang Xiu saw Huang Yueying''s expectant eyes, and the corners of her mouth smoked. She still let Huang Yueying put on her clothes with a smile.


    He has a white robe inside and a red cape outside.


    It''s rather coquettish.


    Huang Yueying didn''t feel anything. She thought Zhang Xiu was very handsome. She nodded one after another, with a look of approval, and said, "yes, it''s pretty good. Husband, pay attention to safety on the way. You must come back unharmed. "


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t worry, it will be OK."


    "Step on it! Step on it


    There was a sound of footwork.


    But Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Deng Zhan came.


    Xu Shu arrived at the prefect''s office early, while Jia Xu lived in it. Deng Zhan also lives in the prefecture and is responsible for protecting Zhang Xiu. Before that, when Zhang Xiu left Xiangyang, he went north with Zhang Xiu, and now he is the guard of Zhang Xiu.


    Three people see Zhang Xiu is wearing the big red cape, on the face all smile, the facial expression is somewhat strange.


    Huang Yueying didn''t see anything and didn''t think the color of the cloak was ugly.


    Seeing Xu Shu coming, she said goodbye and went back to the house.


    Xu Shu looked up and down at Zhang Xiu''s cloak and joked: "my Lord''s cloak must have been made by my mother. The bright red is really bright. This cloak is really magnificent. "Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "what Xu Juncheng said is even, ha ha, it''s really good."


    Deng Zhan didn''t speak.


    Compared with Xu Shu and Jia Xu, Deng Zhan is only Zhang Xiu''s guard. He doesn''t dare to talk nonsense. He is beside Zhang Xiu, looking at his eyes, nose and heart, standing quietly, just like a transparent person.


    Zhang Xiu''s face turned black.


    Xu Shu and Jia Xu really didn''t know which pot to mention. They didn''t have any eyesight.


    Zhang Xiu held up her head and hummed: "you just say it on your lips. You must be envious in your heart. The clothes and cloaks on both of you, did anyone sew them for you? It''s made for me by Yueying. It''s warm like spring. The most important thing is to feel comfortable. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Xu Shu laughed and flattered, put aside his teasing mood, and said, "my Lord, I don''t have much to say. Here, I''m waiting for my Lord to return home as soon as possible. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "this war, do not break Cao Cao oath not to return."


    Jia Xu''s expression was also solemn.


    It can be said that this battle with Cao Cao is a crucial one. Once Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao, it means that Zhang Xiu has a real foothold in Nanyang County, and has a chance to go north to Guanzhong for development.


    Otherwise, it can only be in Nanyang County.


    Jia Xu suddenly thought of one thing and said, "Xu Juncheng, after Zhang Taishou leaves, you still have one more thing to do."


    Xu Shu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Jia Xu replied: "yesterday, we only talked about two steps. One is to resist Cao Cao, the other is to lobby Yuan Shu. In fact, the relationship between Zhang Taishou and Liu Biao is excellent. You can arrange people to go to Xiangyang to publicize the news of Cao Cao''s going south, which makes Jingzhou nervous. Maybe we''ll get some support from Liu Biao. "


    "I see!"


    Xu Shu nodded his head.


    He is a very clever man, and he knows more about Liu Biao''s power of fearing Cao Cao. At this time, spreading the news of Cao Cao''s going south must be able to attract Zhang Xiu''s attention.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Yuanzhi, I''ll leave everything in the rear to you. When I''m no longer in Yuyang County, you have full discretion. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Without further delay, Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu immediately boarded the carriage and went to the barracks.


    In the army, the soldiers have already assembled.


    Both Gan Ning and Chen Dao mobilized their troops.


    When Ganning was in Yuyang County, he constantly recruited soldiers and reorganized the elite. Today, there are 15000 elite soldiers in the army, including more than 20000 ambushes.


    Chen Dao is in command of cavalry, and all the soldiers of Langya camp are in position. Today, Chen Zhi has 1000 cavalry.


    This is a well chosen cavalry.


    No matter soldiers or horses, they are all the most elite. Under the command of Chen Zhi, the cavalry of the 1000 Langya battalion are full of fierce and powerful momentum.


    Zhang Xiu got out of the carriage and looked at the array of troops. She also nodded her approval.


    Morale is available!


    With the help of his soldiers, he was able to fight the first World War.


    Zhang Xiu looked around all the soldiers, took a deep breath, and said in a loud voice: "I believe you all know the news, and know that Cao Cao is about to invade Nanyang County."


    "In the past, Liu PI and Gong came. You killed the enemy with me and killed the yellow scarf thieves."


    "In the past, the Huns went south. You followed me to fight against the Huns and annihilate them."


    "Now, Cao Cao wants to invade and attack us. I, Zhang Xiu, will lead you north to defeat Cao Cao. "


    Zhang Xiu''s voice is high, one word says: "no matter who, even if he is the king of heaven, as long as he dares to enter our Nanyang County, that is a word, kill!"


    "Kill


    Gan Ning stood in front of the battle and responded loudly.


    "Kill!"


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    Soldiers in the army, let''s all shout.


    The neat voice is like the sound of gold and iron, soaring into the sky with high momentum. Even if Cao Cao went south with a terrible momentum, the army under Zhang Xiu was not afraid at all and had a strong will to fight.


    The reason why the soldiers can do this is the fighting spirit built up by Zhang Xiu''s successive victories.


    They are sure to win.


    Even if it''s hard ahead, they''re not afraid.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and gave the order to send troops.


    Gan Ning waved his hand, and his soldiers moved quickly, leaving the camp one by one. After all the troops left the barracks, Zhang Xiu followed them and set off north with them.

 Chapter 145

    In the shortest time, the news that Zhang Xiu led his troops north to meet Cao Cao spread to Xiangyang.


    After Liu Biao knew, he was also nervous.


    Nanyang County is the gateway to the north of Jingzhou. Once it is broken, Xiangyang will be in danger. Therefore, on the basis of the original 100000 stone grain, Liu Biao specially transferred more weapons and armour to let the soldiers transport them to Nanyang County to help Zhang Xiu resist Cao Cao.


    Pang and Huang also got the news. Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan mobilized the family''s human and material resources to continuously transport money and grain to Nanyang County to support Zhang Xiu.


    These two families are tied to Zhang Xiu.


    They are Zhang Xiu''s staunch supporters.


    So, we all hope to win.


    Jingzhou began to get nervous.


    When everyone supported Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu took the army to the north and arrived in Luyang county. When the army entered the county seat of Luyang County, county magistrate Lu GUI personally brought people to meet him.


    Zhang Xiu told Lu GUI the news that Cao Cao might invade, and let Lu GUI stay in the county to calm the people and stabilize the situation. Then he took the army on his way to Lushan.


    If Cao Cao wants to enter Luyang County, he is bound to pass through Lushan and then go to the county seat of Luyang county.


    Lushan is a strategic thoroughfare.


    It was early February when Zhang Xiu and her army arrived in Lushan, and the weather began to warm. Although it''s chilly in spring, it''s still a little cold, but there''s no snow, and the road is easier to walk.


    The sale of anthracite has begun to decline, and the business is much worse.


    After all, it''s getting warm.


    Most of the anthracite coal mined today is stored for use in the next year. Rao is so, Zhang Xiu through anthracite, also earned countless money.


    Nowadays, in Yuyang county''s money bank, there are countless piles of money, which can''t be used up at all.


    With the sale of rice paper, Zhang Xiu is rich and powerful.


    All the princes in the world, whether Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, or Yuan Shu or Liu Biao, have most of their money. On the one hand, they are supported by powerful businessmen; on the other hand, they have their own property; finally, they collect taxes to obtain money.


    Zhang Xiu is different.


    Zhang Xiu holds the economic lifeline.


    He has anthracite and rice paper to earn money, and some Qu Yuan plows, and enough sources of income. Therefore, although Zhang Xiu is weak in economy, in fact, when it comes to money competition, the vast majority of princes may not be able to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived, Pang Tong came down the mountain.


    Pang Tong also paid close attention to the situation of Luyang county. He arranged for sentinels to continuously go to the border to inquire for information, and the information he got was quite detailed.


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, Cao''s troops stationed at the border of Luyang county are about 30000. After these troops arrived, they successively sent spies to inquire about the situation in Luyang county. It''s just that I haven''t found out the trend of Cao Cao. I don''t know if Cao Cao will come in person. "


    "He will come."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with light, and said: "Nanyang County is a strategic place. If Cao Cao wants to win Nanyang, he will certainly take charge of it himself."


    Jia Xu stood aside and said, "since Cao Cao''s army has arrived, there will be a war next. We can arrange the army defense along the line of Lushan. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu added: "in addition, we need to find an ambush place at the frontier, block along the way, and slow down the speed of Cao Cao''s entry into Luyang county. In this battle, we don''t need to fight head-on, we just need to ambush from the side. "


    "Who is this?"


    Pang Tong looked at Jia Xu, who was talking, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.


    He didn''t know Jia Xu existed.


    After all, he has been in Lushan, responsible for Anthracite mining.


    Zhang Xiu said immediately about Jia Xu. Pang Tong''s eyes twinkled with a light after listening to him. He said with a smile, "I know Mr. Jia. During my stay in Luyang County, I met some businessmen from Guanzhong. They mentioned you."


    "Oh, who knows me?"


    Jia Xu''s face, with a faint smile.


    Pang Tong said, "these businessmen all say that you are highly valued by Li Xi and Guo Si and have great ability. For this reason, I specially arranged for people to investigate. I didn''t expect that Mr. Jia would become a subordinate of the Lord and a colleague with me. It''s really wonderful. "


    Jia Xu said: "Pang Jun''s praise is wrong. Jia is old and half of his body has been buried in the earth. It''s not worth mentioning."


    Pang Tong said: "Mr. modest."


    Immediately, Pang Tong said, "my Lord, how are you going to fight this time


    Zhang Xiu said Jia Xu''s suggestion. After listening to it, Pang Tong thought about it and said, "Lord, it''s very good to use the landform to block it step by step. However, after leaving the Lushan area and heading north to the Yanzhou border, the road is much smoother. In addition to ambush with the help of topography, Chen Dao''s cavalry can also be mobilized to make him mobile and harass. In this way, nature can have an effect. "


    "Not bad!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Shi Yuan''s suggestion is to the point."He quickly arranged for the troops to be stationed and gave orders to arrange the defense of Luyang county.


    After Zhang Xiu was stationed in Yanzhou.


    Adjacent to Luyang County, 30000 Cao troops were stationed here.


    The leader is Xia Houyuan.


    This man is Cao Cao''s confidant, and he is quite skilled in the art of war. Xia Houyuan led his troops to the front station. Instead of attacking immediately, he constantly sent spies to inquire about Luyang County, so that Cao Cao could capture Luyang county quickly after he arrived.


    "Newspaper!"


    A soldier came to the camp and reported, "general, Sikong is here."


    "Good!"


    When Xia Houyuan got the news, he immediately went out to meet him. Only when he was less than 20 steps away, he saw a middle-aged man with short stature, ordinary appearance and even dark skin coming.


    He is ordinary in appearance, but he has the bearing of a superior.


    This man is Cao Cao.


    XiaHouYuan came forward and said, "at the end of the day, XiaHouYuan, meet Sikong."


    "Don''t be too polite!" Cao Cao said


    The party entered the tent, and the guests and hosts took their seats.


    After Cao Cao sat down, another tiger general stood beside him. This man is a big man. Standing beside Cao Cao, he looks like an iron tower.


    He stood with his bare hands and two iron halberds on his back. He was full of awe.


    He''s dianway.


    He is Cao Cao''s confidant.


    Dian Wei was born with divine power and courage in both arms. He was Cao Cao''s bodyguard.


    Cao Cao''s eyes swept over the people below. After taking back his eyes, he fell on Xia Houyuan and asked, "miaocai, you should arrive here first and talk about the situation of Luyang county."


    "Here it is


    Xia Houyuan got the order and said in a correct way: "back to Sikong, the border between Luyang county and Yanzhou is smooth. But after more than 20 miles, there is a big mountain called Lushan. "


    "To capture Luyang County, we must take down Lushan first."


    "However, in the front line of Lushan, Zhang Xiu''s army has been stationed. According to the information obtained, Zhang Xiu led nearly 20000 soldiers to Lushan and stationed on the front line of Lushan. "


    Xia Houyuan said: "Zhang Xiu''s intention is to defend with the help of Lushan. I think we have a strong army and can attack Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao nodded, thinking.


    When it comes to war, Cao Cao has always been extremely cautious. He looked down at a young scholar and asked, "what do you think of fengxiao?"


    His name is Guo Jia and his name is fengxiao.


    He was not long since he had been subordinate to Cao Cao, but he was highly valued by Cao Cao. Last year, Cao Cao''s military adviser was Xi Zhicai, but at the end of the year, Xi Zhicai died of illness and Cao Cao lacked counsellors. Xun Yu recommended Guo Jia.


    Cao Cao had a talk with Guo Jia. He was astonished at Guo Jia and trusted him very much.


    Discuss with Guo Jia about everything.

 Chapter 146

    In the face of Cao Cao''s inquiry, Guo Jia, with an air of complacency, reached out and hammered his sour back. In other people''s eyes, this action is disrespectful to Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao asked, but did not answer.


    Instead, he hammered his waist.


    However, in Cao Cao''s view, this is Guo Jia''s true feelings. With a smile on his face, without any displeasure or impatience, he waited for Guo Jia''s reply.


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord, I think that attacking Zhang Xiu can start from two aspects."


    Cao Cao said: "which two aspects?"


    Guo Jia replied, "first, the frontal attack mentioned by general Xiahou just now."


    "Our strength is stronger. If we don''t attack Zhang Xiu, it will make Zhang Xiu suspicious and think that we have another plan. I suggest that we send a general to lead an army as a vanguard and go straight to Lushan first. "


    "The Lord''s army will follow."


    "This step, on the one hand, is to attack Lushan, on the other hand, is to attract Zhang Xiu''s attention. No matter from which aspect, this move is worth it. "


    Guo Jia continued: "in the attack at the same time, the troops raided Luyang County by copying the path."


    "If we attack head on, we can beat Zhang Xiu in one go, that''s the best. This result will not be too troublesome. But in a short time, Zhang Xiu occupied Nanyang County and married the Pearl of the Pang family in Jingzhou. "


    "Such a character is by no means simple."


    "In particular, during her stay in Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu won the hearts and minds of the people


    "It''s hard to deal with such a person."


    "We must send out a surprise force to bypass Lushan County and take the county seat of Luyang county from the rear of Zhang Xiu."


    Guo Jia said: "the county seat of Luyang County, located behind the army of Zhang Xiu, is a place to store grain. When we have captured Luyang County, we can spread the news, disturb the morale of Zhang Xiu''s army, and force Zhang Xiu''s army to retreat. "


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu will be defeated if the two armies attack each other."


    "It''s too simple to rely on the attack all the way alone. Only by making a surprise attack and winning by surprise can we be perfect."


    Guo Jia put forward his suggestion.


    "Wonderful, really wonderful!"


    When Cao Cao heard the words, he nodded one after another.


    He got along with Guo Jia for some time and found out Guo Jia''s strategy style. Most of the time, Guo Jia''s moves are unusual. His sword is not an open attack.


    This is Guo Jia''s style.


    Cao Cao liked it very much.


    Cao Cao turned his eyes, looked at the people in the camp and said, "what do you think, gentlemen


    Xia Houyuan said: "Lord, I agree with you."


    Originally, he suggested a strong attack, but Guo Jia suggested a strong attack, which was the most appropriate.


    Yu Jin also said: "I agree with my humble position."


    The rest of the generals, one by one, agreed and agreed.


    At this time, a young man stood up.


    Cao Cao is tall and straight, similar to his youth.


    He went to the camp and said, "father, son, please fight. As commander Guo said just now, we need to send an army as a vanguard. My son is willing to be a vanguard. He will first arrive in Lushan County and find out about Zhang Xiu. "


    He is Cao ang, the eldest son of Cao Cao.


    Cao ang is now in his early twenties. He is very brave and brave, much like Cao Cao when he was young.


    Just like this, he was highly valued by Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao took Cao ang with him in both big and small wars, and let Cao ang read the government affairs under his command, so that Cao ang could understand the government affairs.


    "Lord, I am willing to be a pioneer."


    Then another young man came forward.


    Young age, slightly older than Cao ang, the figure is strong, rough, very brave.


    His name is Cao Anmin.


    He is Cao Cao''s nephew and has a good relationship with Cao ang. He is a representative of the younger generation in the army.


    When they asked for a fight, Cao Cao nodded.


    Cao Cao was generous in helping the younger generation. He hoped that the younger generation would be familiar with the battlefield, so he said, "since you have taken the initiative to fight, I have given you permission. Cao ang is the vanguard general, and Cao Anmin is the deputy general. I''ll give you another 3000 vanguard troops and go to Lushan first. "


    "Father Xie!"


    Cao ang and Cao Anmin looked at each other, their faces full of smiles and high morale.


    This is their chance.


    It is extremely difficult for them to have such an opportunity on the battlefield. There are many generals in the army, but in big and small battles, the main ones are veteran generals, and Cao ang and Cao Anmin are rarely involved.


    As soon as Cao Cao''s eyes turned, he swept the generals one by one, and finally fell on ban.


    He trusted Yu Jin.


    In the early period of the Three Kingdoms, Yu Jin was Cao Cao''s absolute confidant.


    Since Cao Cao established his foothold in Yanzhou, he has followed Cao Cao since he was banned. He has made great contributions and was once regarded by Cao Cao as one of the most famous generals in ancient times.However, after Cao, Liu and sun split up, Guan Yu led his army to attack Fancheng, and Yu Jin and pound rescued Cao Ren. In this war, Guan Yu flooded Fancheng, Yu Jin and pound were captured.


    At that time, pound would rather die than surrender.


    Pound was eventually executed.


    In order to survive, Yu Jin chose to surrender and was finally imprisoned in Jiangling, Jingzhou.


    After breaking the ban in Jingzhou, Yu was sent back to Jingzhou. At this time, Yu Jin lost the most important character of his ministers, that is loyalty.


    He was sent back to the state of Wei by Sun Quan, humiliated by Cao Pi, and soon died of illness.


    It can be said that Yu Jin was Cao Cao''s absolute confidant in the early stage, even above Xu Huang and lejin.


    Today''s Yu ban is still highly valued by Cao Cao. He was serious, upright and serious. Under the command of Cao Cao, Yu Jin has always been famous for his strict military discipline.


    Cao Cao said, "Wen Ze, are you sure you can win Luyang county?"


    Yu Jin said: "please rest assured, the end will only need 3000 troops, will be able to take Luyang county."


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "all the troops of Zhang Xiu are on the front line of Lushan, but there are not many troops in Luyang county. As long as general Yu quietly arrives in Luyang county and breaks all the soldiers into parts, he can easily mix into Luyang county and control the county. "


    "Of course, General Yu may not choose to break the whole into parts. It can be deceiving the city or other ways."


    "In a word, General Yu is flexible and can take Luyang county."


    "When you take the county seat of Luyang County, you send someone to spread the news and send back the news of the fall of Luyang county. When Zhang Xiu learns about it, she is sure to be in a state of turmoil and even send troops to rescue Luyang county. "


    Guo Jia said: "at that time, no matter whether Zhang Xiu retreats or not, we will attack Zhang Xiu. In the case of the fall of Luyang County, Zhang Xiu''s morale is in chaos and will surely be defeated. "


    "Don''t worry, military strategist. Yu Jin understands."


    Yu Jin nodded solemnly.


    In the view of ban, although Zhang Xiu is powerful, their strength is also very strong, and they can completely crush Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "go and arrange it all."


    "Here it is


    Yu Jin, Cao ang and Cao Anmin retired at the same time to deploy troops and prepare to send troops.


    XiaHouYuan also immediately retreated.


    He will prepare to pull out the camp and lead the army to Lushan on a large scale.


    In the camp, only Cao Cao and Guo Jia were left.


    Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and said, "fengxiao, do you think there will be waves in this battle with Zhang Xiu?"


    Guo Jia gently smile, confident way: "Zhang Xiu is really powerful, is a powerful role. But, after all, he is too young and insufficient to stop us. "


    "In fact, if we carefully examine it, Zhang Xiu''s" fierce "will not hold water. It''s not surprising that he defeated the Huns, Liu Biao''s generals and the yellow scarf thieves. "


    "According to the current information, the counselors around Zhang Xiu are Xu Shu and Pang Tong."


    "Neither of them has much experience."


    Guo Jia continued: "I think that as long as the vanguard troops arrive in Lushan successfully, they will win the first battle. As long as you take Zhang Xiu, the Lord will take part of Nanyang County, and you can turn around and attack Xuzhou with all your strength. "


    "When Xuzhou was pacified as soon as possible, the troops were transferred to destroy Yuan Shu in Yangzhou."


    "At that time, the Lord will occupy half of the country and will be able to fight Yuan Shao. Now the relationship between the Lord and Yuan Shao is getting more and more tense, and it''s only a matter of time before war begins. "


    Guo Jia said: "moreover, the battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan has gained the upper hand. Yuan Shao is pressing forward step by step and will soon win Gongsun Zan. The decisive battle between the Lord and Yuan Shao will be in the next three or four years. "


    Cao Cao said, "what filial piety says is true."


    In fact, Cao Cao also had great pressure. Although he controlled nearly three states, in fact, he was in a very difficult situation and could not spend freely.

 Chapter 147

    In Cao''s army, the big flag is flying.


    The leaders are Cao ang and Cao Anmin.


    They led the army and kept on going.


    Cao Anmin followed Cao ang and said in a deep voice: "Mr. ang, we have been advancing at full speed. We have been far away from the Lord, and we can''t echo the Lord''s army. I suggest slowing down. "


    Cao ang looked relaxed and said, "an min, you are too careful. If we go to Lushan, it will be smooth sailing and we will arrive at Lushan smoothly. Zhang Xiuyi''s introduction to martial arts is not enough for fear. "


    Cao Anmin stopped persuading.


    He didn''t relax his vigilance and went on with Cao ang.


    At the moment, Cao ang did not find that the distance with Gan Ning was getting closer.


    A hundred steps!


    Eighty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides was reduced to less than 60 steps, Gan Ning saw the Cao Jun killed clearly.


    Ganning''s eyes are full of fighting spirit.


    He fought with Zhang Xiu several times, but he didn''t really fight. Especially when fighting with Wei Yan, he only went to the rear of Wei Yan to harass him, but failed to fight head-on.


    When fighting with Xiongnu people, Zhang Xiu wiped out Xiongnu people through the ambush of Wancheng. Under such a premise, Gan Ning failed to enjoy himself in every battle.


    He wanted to kill a lot.


    Seeing that the distance between them was getting closer and closer, he no longer hesitated and ordered, "Archer, prepare!"


    Archers, all in position.


    On both sides of the official road, soldiers with bows and arrows fell down in the grass, took bows and arrows, and aimed at the 3000 Cao soldiers who were coming quickly.


    Distance, constantly closer.


    When the distance between the two sides was reduced to less than 40 steps, Ganning ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    At the command, the archer fired the arrow at once.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows, like raindrops, shot out from the grass and went straight to the three thousand Cao troops.


    At the same time, the archer on the other side also pulls the bow to shoot.


    The archers on both sides shot nearly 800 bows and arrows. They shot out together and landed among the 3000 vanguard soldiers led by Cao ang. At that moment, many soldiers quickly waved their weapons to resist the bow and arrow.


    Although some soldiers were killed or injured under the shooting of bow and arrow, the actual casualties were not large.


    "Watch out!"


    Cao ang didn''t have any panic. He rode his horse and gave a loud order.


    Soldiers under the command, quickly change formation.


    The army, which was on the way quickly, formed a square array to resist the bow and arrow. Rao is so, the team is still moving forward, did not stop because of the bow and arrow shooting.


    Seeing this, Gan Ning had a dignified look in her eyes.


    This Cao army is not simple.


    Facing the attack of bow and arrow, in a short time, they formed a square array and continued to move forward.


    Obviously, the other side wants to rush through. They are no longer affected by the bow as long as they cross the area where the bow is fired.


    Gan Ning is not afraid!


    He will win this battle!


    When the distance was narrowed again and the bow and arrow failed to work, Gan Ning ordered the archer to stop attacking and stand up. He said in a loud voice, "it''s time to make contributions, boys and girls. When the two armies meet, only the brave fight for supremacy. Kill


    He took the sword and killed quickly.


    Two thousand soldiers under his command, along with Gan Ning, went straight to the three thousand pioneers led by Cao ang. The distance between the two sides was not far. Under the leadership of Gan Ning, they soon reached Cao Jun''s front.


    The two armies met and fought head on.


    Gan Ning spurs his horse and his eyes fall on Cao ang.


    Because earlier, he clearly saw that this man was in charge of the army, so he knew that Cao ang was the chief General. Gan Ning pounced on Cao ang, and his swordsmen went up and down, constantly killing Cao''s soldiers to stop him.


    "Thief, you are so rampant!"


    Cao ang saw Ganning slaughter soldiers, gun riding horse, quickly rushed past.


    He had a big gun in his hand. It was very powerful. Although Cao ang was not as powerful as Dian Wei, he was also instructed by Dian Wei, and his martial arts were also very strong.


    Among the young generation of Cao''s and Xia Hou''s families, one shot is invincible.


    "Kill


    Cao ang killed Gan Ning in the twinkling of an eye.


    He didn''t have any hesitation. He stabbed me with a gun. The gun went straight to Ganning''s heart.


    Ganning saw the big gun stabbing and grinned. He is not afraid of the other party''s killing, he is afraid of the other party''s avoiding. When the long gun approached, Gan Ning swung his sword and cut it out.


    The sharp edge of the knife strikes the barrel of the gun, and with a bang, the two weapons collide.


    Gan Ning was not affected, the blade turned, followed the long gun, straight to Cao Ang''s hand.


    Cao ang was not impatient and quickly left.


    He evaded Ganning''s attack and attacked again. But his attack was easily resolved by Gan Ning. On the contrary, Gan Ning''s sharp edge and constant attack forced Cao ang to retreat after more than ten moves.Cao Ganning is not an opponent.


    "Young master, I''ll help you!"


    Cao Anmin saw that Cao ang was being beaten and killed quickly. Under the command of Cao Cao, Cao Anmin is young, but he is also a strong general. However, most of the time, Cao Anmin and Cao ang are together, just like Cao Cao arranged beside Cao ang to protect Cao Ang''s safety.


    He joined the battlefield with a knife to resist Gan Ning''s attack.


    The two joined hands to block it.


    However, Gan Ning was more brave in the war. At the beginning, he was not familiar with the offensive of Cao ang and Cao Anmin, so he drew. But as time goes on, after 30 moves, Gan Ning has found out the situation.


    If he attacks Cao ang, Cao Anmin will surely rescue him.


    This is the cooperation of the other side.


    It''s also a flaw.


    Gan Ning aimed at Cao ang, which was a fierce attack. Under the attack of Ganning, Cao Anmin frequently rescued. However, as soon as he rescued Cao Anmin, Gan Ning targeted him and made him in a dilemma.


    When Cao Anmin and Cao ang joined hands, they did not achieve the effect that one plus one is greater than two. On the contrary, they were very clumsy.


    Cao ang found out the situation and said in a loud voice: "brother Anmin, don''t worry about me. Go to command the army and dispatch the soldiers to fight back. As long as the army defeats the other side, we will win this battle. "


    "Good!"


    Cao Anmin is also a man of wit.


    He sent several soldiers to attack Ganning with Cao ang, intending to share some pressure for Cao ang.


    Then, Cao Anmin took the lead.


    Cao Anmin followed Cao Cao early in the March, and Xia Houyuan and other veteran generals in the army gave advice. He learned from these people and was quite familiar with the method of using troops.


    He is very good at dealing with emergencies on the battlefield.


    So, he quickly adjusted the formation.


    Moreover, the soldiers under Cao Anmin''s command are elite and can quickly change formations. The soldiers were either in twos and threes or jointly attacked, and the attack was extremely fierce.


    The number of Cao Anmin''s soldiers is more. Even though Gan Ning''s soldiers were brave in this attack, they were under great pressure in the face of such an attack.


    Gan Ning looks in the eye, does not have any flurries.


    He believed in his soldiers.


    Even in a weak position, we can still fight the first World War.


    "Kill


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Gan Ning constantly attacked Cao ang. Even if there were soldiers around him, he constantly killed the soldiers who protected Cao ang and forced Cao ang to retreat.


    Gan Ning wants to kill each other, but he can''t find a chance.


    The situation on the battlefield is still deadlocked.


    The soldiers under Ganning''s command were still attacking and never retreated.


    The number of dead and wounded soldiers is increasing.


    Cao Anmin was shocked by his fighting capacity and fighting spirit. He never thought that Zhang Xiu''s soldiers and the fighting capacity of more than 2000 people could be so brave.


    Cao Anmin ordered to strengthen the offensive, but no matter what his offensive was, even if the attack was like a storm, the soldiers under Ganning''s command were still as solid as a towering rock.


    They did not retreat, they even pushed forward.


    They are not afraid of death, they are still fighting.


    In this case, even Cao Anmin felt his scalp numb. Even if he has defeated the army in front of him, if he encounters such obstacles in the future, I''m afraid he will not be able to reach Lushan and his soldiers will be exhausted.


    However, Cao Anmin can not retreat either.


    Fighting on the battlefield, once retreated, means complete failure.


    "Kill


    Cao Anmin continued to organize the attack.


    Gan Ning was carrying a sword to kill, and his whole body was covered with blood, all of which belonged to Cao''s soldiers. But even so, he still can only chase Cao ang, can''t win Cao ang.


    Because Cao Ang''s side is always protected.


    Gan Ning gnashes her teeth at this.


    Just when Gan Ning rushed to kill him, his ears moved and he heard a roaring sound coming from the official road towards Lianqiao.


    There was a smile on his face.


    Here we go!


    Chen Dao''s cavalry finally arrived.

 Chapter 148

    Lushan.


    The army encamped at the foot of the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu''s military account was also set up here.


    For Zhang Xiu, although he faced the approaching of Cao Cao, he didn''t have much pressure. After all, I''ve seen a lot in my past and present life, and I have decades of experience.


    Instead, he was looking forward to the first confrontation with Cao Cao.


    In the army, only Zhang Xiu.


    Chen Dao and Gan Ning have gone on duty. The two of them are ready to join hands to block Cao Jun who enters Luyang county.


    While Zhang Xiu was reading, Jia Xu lifted the curtain of the tent door and entered the tent.


    "My Lord!"


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to salute.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wenhe is coming. Sit down!"


    "Thank you


    Jia Xu lifted up his robe and sat down. He said, "these days, I have been trying to deduce the direction of the war with Cao Cao. Thinking about it, I found a mistake. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s wrong?"


    Jia Xu said: "I asked the local people in Lushan County, and learned that it is really the only way to go from Yanzhou to Luyang county. But in addition, there are also some mountain paths. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, her eyebrows rose.


    He immediately understood Jia Xu''s intention and said, "Wenhe means to worry that Cao Jun will march from the path to the county seat of Luyang county. Once Cao Jun seizes the county, he can give us a fatal blow from the rear. "


    "The prefect is wise!"


    Jia Xu nodded with a smile.


    It has to be said that Zhang Xiu is really quick to respond. He doesn''t need to make it clear to guess his intention.


    Jia Xu continued: "as far as I know, almost all the grain sent by ziyuyang county is stationed in Luyang county. If the county seat of Luyang county is lost, it means that our army can no longer get supplies. If Cao''s army attacked the rear, it would be a draw from the bottom of the pot. Our rear is cut off and our food and grass are seized. Even if Cao Cao does not attack, we will not be able to survive. "


    "Hiss!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu took a cool breath.


    That''s something he didn''t take into account.


    Zhang Xiu had been looking forward to fighting Cao Cao for a short time, but she ignored the rear.


    Jia Xu''s words awakened Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s thoughts scattered, thinking about Cao Cao''s current situation. According to historical records, Cao Cao''s counselor Xi Zhicai has died of illness, and now it is Guo Jia who gives advice to Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu is also familiar with Guo Jia. With Guo Jia''s character, it is possible for Zhang Xiu to plot a plot to attack the county seat of Luyang county.


    Zhang xiudao said, "what you said is true, but how to solve it?"


    Jia Xu said: "it''s not difficult to report back to my Lord. It just needs a simple adjustment. If the Cao army does not surprise the rear, then our adjustment will have no effect. If the Cao army strikes, it will follow the trend. "


    Immediately, Jia Xu said the detailed plan.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu deliberated carefully and agreed with Jia Xu''s suggestion.


    It has to be said that Jia Xu is resourceful.


    Every step is accurate.


    Every step is just right.


    In history, when Jia Xu assisted Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was weak, but he defeated Cao Cao twice in a row, making Cao Cao disheartened.


    All this is Jia Xu''s plan.


    With Jia Xu in, Zhang Xiu saves a lot of things.


    Zhang Xiu wrote a letter immediately, writing the detailed arrangement on it. Then, he called for the soldiers and ordered them to return to the county seat of Luyang county quickly, so that the county magistrate Lu GUI could make arrangements.


    When everything was arranged properly, Zhang Xiu was relieved.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "Mr. Zhang has come from Guanzhong. How is the situation in Guanzhong now?"


    "A mess!"


    Jia Xu shook his head and answered.


    Jia Xu sighed and said, "now Guo Si and Li Yi are attacking each other, and many other Xiliang troops are occupying and raging. The whole situation in Guanzhong is a mess, which needs to be rectified. As for the people in Guanzhong, they are living in dire straits. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "if we can defeat Cao Cao quickly, we can send troops to Guanzhong as soon as possible."


    "I hope so!"


    Jia Xu nodded, he also agreed with Zhang Xiu to go north, hoping that Zhang Xiu would have a real foothold as soon as possible.


    Nanyang County is too limited.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Sir, I''m under my command. I don''t know where your family is now?"


    "All in my hometown!"


    Jia Xu answered directly.


    In his heart, he thought of a possibility that Zhang Xiu would bring his family to Nanyang County?


    Jia Xu is unwilling.


    Because, for the time being, he is living under the command of Zhang Xiu, and has not recognized Zhang Xiu as the main one.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "my husband is from Xiliang. Now Xiliang is not peaceful. In my opinion, it''s better to move my husband''s family to Nanyang County. Of course, it has to defeat Cao Cao. If you can''t even stop Cao Cao''s attack, Nanyang County will not be safe. It''s unrealistic for Mr. Cao to move his family here. "Jia Xuchang breathed a sigh of relief.


    His heart is more emotional, Zhang Xiu really can handle things, and insight into his ideas.


    Obviously, if we don''t defeat Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu won''t be able to gain a real foothold and not be regarded as a vassal. If Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao, it would be enough to have a real foothold in Nanyang and send troops to Chang''an.


    At that time, the general trend of Zhang embroidery had become.


    If Jia Xu moved his family again, he would be safe and have enough future. At that time, Jia Xu was also willing to be loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    Jia Xu said, "please obey your instructions."


    Zhang Xiu also showed a smile on her face.


    Jia Xu is now following him and playing for him, just looking for a safe place. In fact, there is no real loyalty to him. Once Jia Xu''s family is moved here, it means that Jia Xu really works for him.


    This is clear to Zhang Xiu.


    ¡­¡­


    North of Lushan, 15 li away.


    This place is only 20 li away from Yanzhou. It is flat and open.


    In the spring of February, ice and snow melt.


    On the earth, all things have been revived, and countless plants have sprouted and grown. At a glance, the whole earth is green and full of vitality.


    "Wow!"


    The river flows and winds down.


    Luyang County in Nanyang County is located in the north of the Yangtze River system and the southernmost part of the Yellow River system, belonging to the Huaihe River system. In Luyang County, there are many rivers, and the water system is relatively developed.


    Near the north of Lushan Mountain, there is a river winding down.


    In deep winter, because it was so cold last year, the water surface of the river froze. Now it''s spring, the temperature is rising, the ice is melting, but the river is still a little cold.


    The river in this area is called Shahe.


    To get to Lushan, you have to cross the Shahe River, because the river is eight feet wide at most, and you can only go through the bridge built on the river.


    There are few people living around, and there are few boats.


    A few miles south of the Shahe River, in a forest. The soldiers led by Ganning are ambushing here. The number of soldiers he brought was not very large, only 2000 soldiers, who were dedicated to stopping the pioneers of Cao Jun.


    It has been two days since he arrived here.


    All the time, it''s ambushed here.


    All the soldiers in the army eat dry food. Although the conditions encountered by the soldiers were quite difficult, they were full of fighting spirit and momentum.


    Many of them were from Nanyang County. They had been fighting with Zhang Xiu and had long been veterans on the battlefield.


    I can bear the hardships.


    Gan Ning hid in the dense forest and told his soldiers the story of Cao Cao.


    Gambling is strictly prohibited in his army.


    Soldiers don''t gamble and have nothing to do. They are very bored. Therefore, Gan Ning called all the soldiers and sat together in rows. He said something about Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao.


    Gan Ning''s understanding of Cao Cao is mostly from Zhang Xiu''s mouth.


    He held his head high, cadenced, and continued: "although Cao Cao is a hero, he is extremely suspicious and has a strong killing heart. It''s said that he failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo. After he left Luoyang, he passed through his old friend LV boshe''s family and went to the door. This is Lu Bo she... "


    Gan Ning talked about Cao Cao''s killing of LV Bohe.


    At this time, footsteps came.


    "Newspaper!"


    A sentinel quickly came to Ganning and reported: "Captain Gan, here comes Cao Jun. The sentinel sent back news that Cao''s vanguard, about 3000 people, had arrived near Lianqiao. "


    The bridge across the Shahe River is called Lianqiao.


    "Here we are at last!"


    Gan Ning stood up and said in a loud voice: "brothers, the story will be told later. Now it''s time for war. After two days of waiting, Cao Jun finally came. My Lord is waiting for our good news in Lushan. I will kill Cao Jun earlier so that I can ask him for credit. "


    All soldiers, come in.


    One by one, with high morale on their faces, they all picked up their own weapons, and then prepared with all their strength.


    Soon all the soldiers were on alert.


    Ganning let his soldiers all hide, waiting quietly on the official road. Because of the flat terrain nearby, it is not easy to use the terrain, so Ganning just hides in the vegetation, waiting quietly.


    Time goes by.


    The warm sun in spring makes people sleepy.


    Gan Ning, however, glared and waited.


    "Here it is. Someone is coming."


    After waiting for Ganning for a short time, I suddenly saw a black line creeping rapidly on the official road in front of him, running towards his direction.


    Here comes Cao Jun!


    At this moment, Ganning was in high spirits.

 Chapter 149

    "Boom!"


    The sound of horse''s hooves came from far and near. The countless horse hooves trample, making the ground shake up, people close, can feel the vibration of the ground.


    Cao ang also heard the sound of horse''s hooves coming from behind for the first time.


    His heart sank.


    It''s a trick!


    The other side''s blocking on the official road is obviously a bait, deliberately to slow him down. Then, to create opportunities for cavalry, so that cavalry quickly come, in order to cover him up.


    This is the other side''s trap.


    "Withdraw!"


    Cao ang found out this situation, without any hesitation, and immediately gave the order to retreat.


    "Change the square array, retreat with the square array."


    Cao ang gave a loud order.


    On the wide flat ground, cavalry can easily spread out and kill, which is invincible. Once Cao Ang''s soldiers dispersed and retreated, they would be slaughtered by cavalry.


    Only when we get together and resist with a square array can we have a chance to withdraw from the battlefield.


    After Cao ang ordered, the soldiers quickly changed their formation and retreated.


    Gan Ning also said: "withdraw, the whole army retreats temporarily!"


    Earlier on, Gan Ning met with Chen Dao to discuss the strategy of encircling and suppressing Cao''s vanguard army. Gan Ning was clear about Chen Dao''s arrangement, so at the moment of Cao''s retreat, he did not lead his troops to pursue, but quickly withdrew.


    With his orders, all the soldiers retreated quickly.


    For a while, the two sides separated.


    In the middle of the two armies, there was a large space left immediately.


    Cao Anmin also noticed the withdrawal. However, he didn''t have time to think about the reason. He could only quickly reorganize the formation and retreat with Cao ang.


    It wasn''t long before Chen''s soldiers arrived.


    It was the first time that Chen Dao''s 1000 Langya battalion appeared on the battlefield.


    Chen Dao is full of expectations for this battle. Whether the cavalry he has trained for several months has enough fighting power and can be used greatly depends on the result of this battle.


    "Langya camp, prepare for the shotgun!"


    With Chen''s order, the herald waved the flag. All the cavalry riding on the horse saw the order and quickly took out a foot long short gun from the pocket of the horse''s belly.


    All the cavalry, holding the bridle in their left hand and the shotgun in their right hand, leaned back and threw forward.


    "Whew! Whew


    A short gun, from the air across, in a flash to the top of Cao Jun''s head.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A short gun fell down and inserted into the body of Cao''s soldiers.


    In an instant, countless people were injured.


    Some soldiers were shot by short guns and killed directly by short guns through their hearts. Even if he didn''t die immediately, the wounded soldier fell to the ground and was trampled to death by his fellow soldiers coming from behind.


    There is no chance to struggle.


    "Hiss!"


    Cao Anmin took a cool breath.


    He got it!


    He finally understood why Zhang Xiu''s army had to retreat for a short time.


    This is to avoid short guns.


    It''s a chance for cavalry to attack with short guns.


    If the soldiers under Ganning''s command had been fighting with Cao''s army and killed cavalry, it would be impossible to attack with short guns. Because of the dense shot, it''s an undifferentiated attack.


    Such an attack will hurt one''s own people.


    "Block, block!"


    Cao Anmin shouts out loud, waves his sword, and swings his shotgun.


    A round of short guns fell, at least nearly a hundred soldiers were killed. The most important thing is that the formation formed by his soldiers lost order and became chaotic because of the short gun attack.


    Now the cavalry arrived.


    Chen to gallop, a gun in his hand pointed to the front, ordered the sprint.


    One thousand soldiers of Sirius camp, sprint fast, and hit Cao Jun''s soldiers hard. With the long spears spurting and the barbaric impact of the horses, Cao''s formation was even more scattered and unable to unite.


    "Get out, get out!"


    Cao Anmin ordered, very anxious.


    At this moment, he was very nervous.


    He was not worried about his own life and death, but about Cao Ang''s safety. Cao ang is the eldest son of Cao Cao. In other words, he is the successor of Cao Cao and the son of Sikong mansion.


    In particular, Cao Cao would take Cao ang with him in all wars and let him take part in the war and understand the situation of the battlefield.


    Obviously, Cao ang was trained as his successor.


    Cao ang can''t do anything.


    Cao Anmin''s face became more and more solemn, thinking about the solution. But the cavalry came, the formation was in chaos, and the casualties were more serious. He has no way, can only in the shortest time, to Cao Ang''s side, escort Cao ang retreat.


    Chen Dao led the cavalry to fight back and forth.Under his charge, three thousand Cao soldiers were scattered.


    Cavalry cover up, Cao''s casualties continue to increase.


    Seeing the pursuing cavalry, Cao ang looked at the countless dead and wounded soldiers with a pathetic look on his face and said, "an min, I regret it. I should listen to your words and not be too far away from my father."


    Cao Anmin said, "don''t regret it, young master. Get out of the car now. "


    Cao ang clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, "we are entangled. It''s hard to leave. This war is too dangerous. I''ll lead the army. You ride your horse back to see uncle Xiahou and ask him to dispatch troops for rescue. "


    In times of crisis, Cao ang chose to stay.


    He is the manager, he made a mistake, he chose to stay. And only if he stays can he boost the morale and make the soldiers fight to death. If he, as the chief general, fled directly, the battle would be completely defeated.


    The army must be completely annihilated.


    Cao Anmin shakes his head when he hears Cao Ang''s words. He can''t let Cao ang run the risk.


    While they were talking, a cavalry came to kill Cao ang and swung his sword at him. Seeing that Cao ang was not in a hurry to escape, Cao Anmin rushed to Cao ang and resisted the knife with his back.


    "Yes


    Sharp blade, hard fall.


    Cao Anmin''s blood flowed from Cao Anmin''s back. But he bit his teeth and made no sound.


    That a handsome cheek, but because of endless pain, become ferocious incomparable.


    Pain!


    The pain of tearing the heart and cracking the lung comes from the back.


    Cao Anmin biting his teeth, suddenly took a cold breath, suppressed the pain, roared: "where are tigers and leopards riding?"


    "The tiger and the leopard are riding!"


    After the name of the draft ordered, not far from Cao ang, ten young generals quickly approached. These ten young generals are grass-roots generals in the army. They all hold the official posts of Centurion.


    One by one, they were big and strong, with rebellious and fierce faces.


    They are veterans of all wars on the battlefield.


    He is a valiant soldier in the army.


    Tiger and leopard riding is a cavalry under Cao Cao''s command. It is the most powerful fighting force of Cao Cao. Every tiger and leopard riding soldier is absolutely brave. Anyone who comes to the army can be a centurion or above.


    Cao ang led 3000 vanguards to fight. Cao Cao was not sure about Cao Ang''s safety, so he sent ten tigers and leopards into the army, and Cao Anmin was responsible for the dispatch.


    Only in time of crisis can they be transferred.


    Cao Anmin''s eyes were sharp, and he ordered: "you and I will escort you to retreat first, and I will lead you to the end."


    "Here it is


    Head of the tiger and leopard riding soldiers forward, Baoquan way: "childe, please!"


    Cao ang said: "Anmin, if our brothers want to fight, they will fight to the end. I can''t go first."


    Cao Anmin looked solemn and shook his head: "young master, don''t be willful. This is the most dangerous time. If you don''t leave, the consequences will be even worse. Leave me alone, I''ll try to escape. "


    Cao ang was biting his teeth with a ferocious expression.


    In the past, he went to war with Yu Jin, Xia Houyuan and others, and he always went with the wind and the water. He never met such a situation. But now because of his willfulness, leading to the army in danger, leading to Cao Anmin stay, his heart is dripping blood.


    Because it''s very dangerous to stay.


    "Young master, please!"


    Tiger and leopard riding soldiers, immediately urge.


    Cao ang looked around. The cavalry under Zhang Xiu was still killing and killing. As a result, the vanguard soldiers under his command are constantly dying.


    "Withdraw!"


    Cao ang bit his teeth and was helpless.


    "You must take care of yourself to keep the people safe."


    Cao ang roared, no longer delay time, a pat on the back of the horse, then galloped away quickly. Ten soldiers riding tiger and leopard, protecting Cao ang, left first.


    After their retreat, Cao Anmin did not retreat any more and chose to fight to the death. He mobilized the soldiers around him and began to stop the cavalry from pursuing Cao ang.


    When Chen Dao slaughtered Cao Jun, he found Cao Anmin.


    Seeing that Cao Anmin was blocking his army, Chen Dao shook his horse''s reins, turned his horse''s direction, and drove his horse straight to Cao Anmin. He had to solve Cao Anmin first.


    He did not allow anyone to delay the killing of Cao Jun.

 Chapter 150

    Lushan.


    Zhang Xiu''s military garrison.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu is also waiting for the news.


    He was not worried when he learned that more than 3000 pioneers of Cao Jun had been killed. Although the other side is fierce, but in fact, Zhang Xiu really did not put Cao Cao''s vanguard in the eye.


    Before Cao Jun arrived in Lushan, he was not afraid at all.


    Even if Cao Jun arrived, he was not afraid.


    "Newspaper!"


    A soldier entered Zhang Xiu''s camp and reported: "my Lord, Chen Dao and Gan Ning came back from the front line and escorted many prisoners. They have won a great victory. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu heard the speech and cried out.


    This is the first battle between him and Cao Cao. In the first battle, he captured Cao Cao''s soldiers and defeated Cao Cao''s vanguard. This made a good start for the next war. It''s very good.


    Zhang Xiu walked out of the camp and came to the gate of the camp, waiting for Gan Ning and Chen to return in triumph.


    It wasn''t long. Outside the camp, there were already troops.


    Chen Dao and Gan Ning came back.


    The two returned with the team and soon came to the gate of the camp.


    Gan Ning, looking happy, went forward and said, "my Lord, I''m lucky to have lived up to my destiny. Together with Chen Zhi, I defeated Cao''s vanguard. In this war, more than 1200 people were captured and more than 1500 people of Cao army were killed. Our army has only damaged more than 600 soldiers. Besides, we captured Cao Anmin, Cao Cao''s nephew. "


    "Well done!"


    When Zhang Xiu heard it, she cried out.


    Actually captured Cao Anmin.


    If you don''t understand Cao Cao, you will not understand Cao Anmin''s identity and importance. This man is a very valued junior of Cao Cao. He always follows Cao ang, Cao Cao''s eldest son.


    Zhang Xiu was once humiliated by Cao Cao and led the army to rebel, then killed Cao ang and Cao Anmin.


    Now, I caught this man.


    Good luck.


    Zhang Xiu was happy and said, "settle down all the soldiers, and then take Cao Anmin to my camp."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered, and Chen was incorporated into one.


    Soon after the party entered the army, Cao Anmin was taken to the army tent.


    At this time, Cao Anmin, with a withered look and pale complexion, was extremely embarrassed. His chest and back clothes, have been soaked with blood, like a blood man in general.


    The rib under his right rib was not connected, and the wound on his back was not treated.


    It''s burning all over.


    Cao Anmin''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain. He said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, even if you captured me and defeated three thousand vanguards of Sikong. However, your strength can''t stop Sikong''s army. Now, it''s time for you to resist. You will lose in the end. "


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "it''s very powerful to be fierce. It''s a pity that you fall into my hands. I''ll decide your life and death. "


    Cao Anmin snorted, very proud.


    He despises Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just a man from Xiliang army.


    Zhang Xiu saw Cao Anmin''s look in her eyes and continued: "when Cao Cao attacks Lushan, I will hang you out. As long as Cao Cao attacks, I will kill you. Do you think Cao Cao will launch an offensive? "


    Brush!


    Cao Anmin''s face changed slightly.


    This is the most poisonous.


    If Zhang Xiu killed him, Cao Cao would not be in any trouble.


    Once the two armies want to fight, Zhang Xiu takes out Cao Anmin to threaten Cao Cao, which is the most embarrassing. If Cao Cao ordered the attack, Cao Anmin would not survive. If Cao Cao does not attack, Cao Anmin will be saved, but Cao Cao will not be able to advance.


    It''s impossible to attack Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Anmin took a deep breath, suppressed his impetuous heart and said: "Zhang Xiu, your plan can''t be successful. Sikong is wise and powerful. He always attaches great importance to the overall situation. He can''t stop the army because of me. Even if I was caught, Sikong would attack. You can''t stop Sikong''s attack in Lushan. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''ll wait and see!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "you cao Anmin is a hero. After such a heavy injury, you can still support yourself. Unfortunately, the hero is the most sad. Take people down and take them into custody. There must be no abnormality. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to step down with Cao Anmin.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to change Cao Anmin''s clothes or treat him.


    Only in this tragic situation can Cao Cao be influenced.


    Speaking of Cao Anmin''s current situation, he was seriously injured, which is really miserable. But Zhang Xiu is very clear that if he is defeated, the situation will be even worse. Just as he used to be, he eventually succumbed to Cao Cao, but he didn''t have any power in his hand. Finally, he was forced to death by Cao Pi.


    How sad the situation is.


    After Cao Anmin was taken down, Zhang Xiu called Pang Tong and Jia Xu. Then she asked Gan Ning to talk about the general situation on the battlefield and Chen Dao to talk about the pursuit.After hearing this, Zhang Xiu turns her eyes and has a plan in her heart.


    He''s going to take advantage of the destroyed bridge.


    This is an opportunity!


    Instead of explaining, Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and Jia Xu and asked, "what do you think about this war?"


    Pang Tong and Jia Xu were counselors.


    If you have something, you should ask them and let them take the lead instead of Zhang Xiu putting forward suggestions for everything.


    Pang Tong looked indifferent and said: "Lord, we are now in the ascendancy. After Cao Cao''s vanguard is damaged, he will be more cautious. In the next step, he will definitely not divide his troops any more. It must be a big army going south. I don''t think it''s necessary to send any more troops to leave Lushan, just stay in Lushan and wait for Cao Cao to arrive. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "Wenhe, what do you think?"


    Jia Xu said: "in fact, at the moment, there is still a move to go. This move may weaken Cao Cao again. At least, it can bring some influence to Cao Cao. "


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth stirred up a smile.


    He has ideas, too.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "how to arrange it?"


    Jia Xu looked wise and said slowly: "when General Chen explained just now, he talked about the most important thing. That is the bridge body of Lianqiao, which has been cut off by Cao ang. "


    "Now, you can''t cross the river directly."


    "It can be predicted that Cao Cao would cross the river, or make boats, or collect boats, and then cross the river by boat on a large scale. After all, Cao Cao has 30000 troops. "


    "Under such a premise, if we build a dam on the upper reaches of the Shahe River and seize the right time for him to cross the river, we will burst the dam and release water. If the flood goes down, countless Cao soldiers will fall into the water. "


    "Even if Cao Cao''s soldiers are in the boat, there are only a few people who can keep their shape under the impact of big waves. The most important thing is that the northern soldiers are not used to going by boat. If they cross the river peacefully, it doesn''t matter. But the river is rising, and under the fierce impact, there must be countless Cao soldiers falling into the water. "


    "Of course, such an impact is unlikely to cause large-scale casualties of Cao''s army, but at least it can weaken Cao''s soldiers and hurt some of them."


    Jia Xu said: "our strength is weaker than Cao Cao. If we have a chance, we should weaken each other bit by bit. When Cao Jun''s strength is weak, we can launch a fatal attack. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Mr. Wenhe knows me. Just now, that''s what I planned. To deal with Cao Cao, we must make use of all conditions and seize all opportunities to weaken his strength. We are not Cao Cao''s opponents in a confrontation when there is a great disparity in forces. Only in this way, constantly looking for opportunities. "


    Ganning Baoquan way: "Lord, the end will be willing to lead troops into the upper reaches of the Shahe River, and then build dams, flooding Cao Jun."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "xingba, it''s up to you. Just be careful."


    "Yes, I understand."


    Gan Ning nodded solemnly.


    Pang Tong turned his eyes, thought of a plan, and said: "Lord, Cao Cao is not a man to deal with. He can choose to use boats to cross the river. Similarly, he can salvage the previously sunken bridge, and then reconnect it to cross the river on the bridge. "


    "Of course, no matter what, Cao Cao has to cross the river. And we all have to be ready for that. "


    "I suggest that a soldier be stationed on the South Bank of the bridge. Once about half of Cao Cao''s troops cross the Shahe River, we will release water upstream to break the bridge, or break the chance for the other side to cross the river. "


    "Then, attack the Cao Army crossing the river."


    Pang Tong said: "in this way, Cao''s soldiers can also be weakened. Even if the Cao army wants to cross the Shahe River by force, when most of their troops arrive, we will retreat and then return to Lushan to defend. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and exclaimed, "Shiyuan''s strategy is really good. We''ll arrange everything well. It depends on the situation whether Cao Cao is in the trap or not. "


    "Do your best and listen to fate."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Immediately, he made arrangements for Jia Xu to take charge of the defense of Lushan. And he himself, with 5000 elite soldiers and 1000 cavalry of Chen Dao, went to the direction of Lianqiao again.

 Chapter 151

    On the official road, an army is on its way.


    On the flag of the army, there is a huge character of Cao embroidered. With the spring breeze blowing, the big flag flutters with the wind and makes a sound in the air.


    This is Cao Cao''s army.


    At this moment, Cao Jun has entered the territory of Luyang County, to Lushan County.


    Cao Cao followed the army and was in the middle of the army. He didn''t ride a horse, he drove by car. Today, Cao Cao is only Sikong in the Han Dynasty, not the prime minister, nor the king of Wei. There is no overstepping. He is only driven by two horses.


    In the carriage, Cao Cao closed his eyes.


    It''s the pattern he''s used to.


    In the carriage, you can carefully deduce the next step of the army.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a sentry on the official road called out.


    With the shouts of the sentry, the soldiers avoided the sentry along the way and let the sentry gallop back quickly. The sentry ran all the way and soon came to XiaHouYuan and reported the news he had just received.


    In the army, Xia Houyuan is the chief General.


    All the news must go through XiaHouYuan before reporting to Cao Cao.


    At the moment, when Xia Houyuan heard the news, his face became dignified. He immediately arranged for him, then turned his horse around and quickly came to Cao Cao''s car.


    Seeing Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan said: "Lord, just received the news from the sentinel, young master ang was ambushed and the army was defeated."


    Cao Cao suddenly became nervous and said, "what''s the matter?"


    Xia Houyuan said in detail: "the sentinel said that young master ang and Cao Anmin led their troops across the front bridge, and then they were ambushed by Zhang Xiu''s army and suffered heavy losses. Now, young master ang is on his way back. At the end of the day, the general dispatched his soldiers to meet him. Only when young master ang returns to the army can he know the details. "


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face became gloomy.


    Lost!


    It''s so brilliant.


    In Cao Cao''s mind, he did not pay much attention to Zhang Xiu, even though Zhang Xiu defeated the Huns and made great contributions. But now, his son is defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said nothing.


    For now, we have to wait for news.


    Guo Jia did not get detailed information, and now he can only wait for Cao ang to come back to consider the situation.


    Time goes by.


    Near Shenshi in the afternoon, Xia Houzhong, with ten tigers and leopards, escorted Cao ang back.


    Cao ang looked sad and depressed. He came to Cao Cao and with a plop, he knelt down on the ground and pleaded guilty: "the three thousand pioneers led by his son have been destroyed. Including Anmin, he was trapped in the rear because he cut off the rear for me. If the son is guilty, ask the father to punish him. "


    Cao Cao looked around ten soldiers on horseback, with sharp eyes and sharp eyebrows.


    Instead of asking Cao ang about the specific situation of the war, he looked at Xia Houzhong and said in a deep voice, "Xia Houzhong, tell me about the specific situation at that time?"


    Xia Houzhong is extremely loyal to Cao Cao.


    He can''t lie.


    In the face of Cao Cao''s inquiry, Xia Houzhong said: "report back to Sikong, we will go to Lushan after crossing the bridge. On the way, he was ambushed by Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "At that time, we gained an advantage at the beginning of the fighting, but soon after the fighting, a cavalry suddenly entered the rear."


    "We were caught in the crossfire before we were defeated."


    "In order to protect young master Ang''s safe retreat, Cao Anmin personally ordered ten people to escort young master ang to retreat first."


    "When we retreated to Lianqiao, Mr. ang didn''t want to cut off Lianqiao. In order to block the pursuit from the rear, he cut off Lianqiao. As a result, Cao Anmin fell into a dead end. Please punish him. "


    Xia Houzhong described the situation truthfully.


    At the moment, he was also kneeling on the ground with a look of grief.


    He was also very sad that three thousand of his colleagues had fallen into the cave. He didn''t want to see this happen.


    Cao ang took a deep breath and continued: "it''s all because of my son''s failure. If it had not been for the son''s rival, he would not have been ambushed, and such a situation would not have occurred. In this war, my son didn''t find the ambush in time. "


    After hearing this, Cao Cao had a gloomy face.


    He stared at Cao ang and said, "you did make a mistake, but your mistake is not that you didn''t find the ambush in time. As a striker, it''s very normal to encounter ambush


    "Even if sentries are arranged, ambushes may not be found."


    "Your mistake is to March too fast."


    "So much so that we can get away from the army. If you are within ten miles of the army. As soon as you come across a situation, I can send troops to help you at any time, so that you will not be left alone. "


    "It''s a big mistake you''ve made."


    Cao Cao carefully analyzed for Cao ang.


    In fact, Cao Cao also blamed himself. After Cao ang led his troops at full speed and got away from the army for a certain distance, he wanted to send someone to remind Cao ang. But at that time, he thought that Cao ang was a Veteran General in the army and would be careful.Cao Cao also considered that Zhang Xiu was no better than that. He would certainly defend in the front line of Lushan and would not send troops to attack.


    I didn''t expect it to lead to disaster.


    Cao ang said: "father, my son is greedy and reckless, and he is punished. There is nothing to say. But Anmin is trapped in the enemy camp. I''m afraid that his life is in danger. Please ask my father to rescue Anmin. "


    Cao ang and Cao Anmin are close friends.


    The relationship between the two is excellent.


    Now in order to protect him, Cao Anmin is in trouble after his death. He must blame himself.


    Cao Cao said, "even if you don''t say it, I will arrange it."


    Cao ang was silent.


    As soon as he thought that Cao Anmin might die after he left, he was extremely anxious.


    Cao Cao knows the character of Cao Anmin.


    His son, warm and mellow, also knows how to use the military, but in his temperament, he is a little less ruthless, a little less ruthless.


    This is the result of Cao Ang''s childhood.


    He was not exposed to too much harsh environment, so he was mellow.


    As soon as Cao Cao''s words changed, he continued: "Anmin has been in trouble. Now you continue to blame yourself, it will not help. What you have to do now is to cheer up and adjust your state so that you can attack Zhang Xiu and save Anmin. It''s not a man''s behavior to be down in the dumps. It''s not my son of Cao Cao. "


    "My father taught me."


    Cao ang said: "please rest assured father, son will avenge for Anmin, more will be a snow before shame."


    "Go down!"


    Cao Cao waved his hand.


    Cao ang retreated, and all the tiger and leopard riders headed by Xia Houzhong returned to the army.


    Xia Houyuan stood aside, looking serious and solemnly said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is really hard to deal with. The two sides haven''t started a war, so they gave us a slap in the face. "


    Cao Cao said: "this war has just begun. We still have opportunities. But I can''t belittle Zhang Xiu. It''s a wake-up call for us about Cao ang. "


    Xia Houyuan said: "my Lord is wise!"


    But Cao Cao shook his head and didn''t think he was wise. On the contrary, his face was full of dignity, but his expression was more profound.


    It doesn''t bode well for the first battle.


    Guo Jia followed Cao Cao and suggested, "Lord, there is one more thing to do now. When Xia Houzhong retreated with young master ang, he cut off the bridge. If the army wants to cross the bridge, it will be a bit of trouble. "


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the suggestion for fengxiao?"


    Guo Jia said: "please arrange a team of auxiliary soldiers to go to the bridge first and build it up. It''s not easy to build a bridge, but it''s much easier than collecting boats. After all, the bridge body of the bridge is still there. As long as it is salvaged, it may still be used. "


    "It''s true," Cao Cao said


    He looked at XiaHouYuan and said, "miaocai, you can arrange it. In addition, he ordered to speed up. We arrived in Lushan one day earlier and attacked Zhang Xiu one day earlier. Now, we can''t delay any longer. "


    "Here it is


    XiaHouYuan got the order and went to arrange it immediately.


    Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia again and said, "fengxiao, when Zi ang was ambushed, I think Zhang Xiu is not simple. She is a man who knows the art of war very well. Under such circumstances, when we crossed the river, did you say that Zhang Xiu would ambush the troops who had just crossed the river? "


    When Guo Jia heard Cao Cao''s words, he pondered and said, "the army has just crossed the river, and there are not many troops. Under such circumstances, the Shahe River is a natural moat, making it difficult for us to help. My Lord is worried that there is a great possibility for Zhang Xiu to ambush. "


    Cao Cao said: "how to crack it?"


    Guo Jia gently smiles and confidently says: "in fact, it''s not difficult. Even if Zhang Xiu arranges troops nearby, the troops we cross the river first are mainly defensive soldiers. After the soldiers crossed the river, they immediately lined up to defend and set up fortifications. It''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to cross the river in such an orderly way, even if she wants to ambush her. "


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "that''s it."


    They agreed to go with the army to the direction of Lianqiao.

 Chapter 152

    Chen to the crotch of the war horse, already psychic. The horse is like an arrow away from the string. It runs very fast. In a twinkling of an eye, it''s in front of Cao Anmin.


    "Kill


    Chen Dao gave a low drink and stabbed him with his gun.


    Chen Dao, who is on the war horse, with the help of the power of the sprint of the war horse, kills with a big gun. His strength is powerful and extremely fierce.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the spear came to Cao Anmin.


    Cao Anmin bit his teeth and swung his knife.


    "Dang!"


    The weapons collided and made a dull noise.


    The next moment, the impact of peiran''s strength, Cao Anmin holding the sword''s hand, is a burst of pain. He couldn''t hold one, so the sword in his hand was knocked out.


    He was injured and weakened. Under Chen Zhi''s shot, he not only lost his sword in his hand, but also was shaken by the power of the shot. His heart was shaken.


    In this instant, the whole person lost the power of resistance.


    "Fall down!"


    Chen to draw back the gun, then swept.


    The long gun swept by, a stick shadow flashed in the air, the next moment, the long stick hit Cao Anmin''s rib.


    "Pa!"


    There was a dull crash.


    Cao Anmin felt as if his ribs had been hit by a heavy hammer. He only heard the sound of chucking. The bone under his ribs was completely broken.


    The pain of tearing heart and lungs, as well as the pain of muscle strain, constantly attacked his body.


    Pain!


    Incomparable pain!


    Cao Anmin was first slashed on the back and back by the soldiers. His blood was flowing and his flesh was flying. He was able to hold back the pain and not let himself make any noise.


    At this moment, but can no longer bear.


    It hurts!


    He opened his mouth and made a shrill voice. But at the moment of his voice, under the impact of the great power, his body could no longer stand firmly on the horse, and directly flew out.


    "Bang!"


    Cao Anmin''s body plummeted to the ground.


    When he hit the ground, it was the injured back that landed, which made Cao Anmin''s injury more serious.


    He was in great pain. Just haven''t wait for him to react, the next moment, Chen to the sharp point of the gun, has stopped in front of him. Just a little bit further ahead of the tip of the gun would be enough to pierce his heart.


    "Come on, take it!"


    Chen Dao ordered the soldiers to detain Cao Anmin alone.


    He has just seen that this man is in charge of commanding, at least a young general.


    Such people are valuable.


    After the soldiers take Cao Anmin, Chen Dao takes the soldiers and hides the Cao soldiers who are left to resist. Under the joint suppression of cavalry and infantry, Cao''s soldiers could not resist the attack at all. They fought to death, surrendered or kept running away.


    Cao Jun was defeated like a mountain.


    Gan Ning came to Chen Dao''s side and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhi, I saw more than ten cavalry soldiers covering a general of Cao''s army leaving. That person is the most important person. Your cavalry is fast. Go after them first. I''ll follow with the infantry and clean up the battlefield. "


    "Good!"


    Chen Dao directly responded.


    Immediately, Chen Dao mobilized his cavalry and quickly went to Lianqiao.


    Cao ang, who is fleeing ahead, is approaching Lianqiao.


    He looked back and saw that there was no Cao Anmin in the rear, and his heart sank completely. Because Cao Anmin didn''t catch up, he was likely to stay and fight to death. He must have been held back.


    "We must live in peace."


    "Be sure to survive."


    Cao ang looked back at the rear, his eyes red, and he felt extremely remorseful.


    This time, it''s all his fault.


    He was so confident and careless that he got into trouble.


    The leader of the ten tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers, named Xia Houzhong, is the son of Xia Houshi. He followed Cao ang. Seeing that Cao ang was sad, he advised, "young master, everyone like us can die, but you can''t


    "Cao Anmin is like this, I am like this, and the rest of us are like this."


    "As long as you go back safely, Sikong can avenge us. Now, it''s not the time to be sad. If we withdraw, we can get revenge. "


    Xia Houzhong said: "speed up, we''ll evacuate as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be dangerous for the cavalry to catch up. "


    "Well, I know!"


    Cao ang nodded solemnly.


    But Xia Hou Zhong didn''t speak any more, and the group continued on their way.


    Soon, we arrived at Lianqiao.


    After more than ten people passed the bridge, Cao ang continued to run forward, but Xia Houzhong stopped and ordered, "come on, cut off the bridge and stop the pursuers in the rear."


    "No way!"


    Cao ang denied it directly.


    At the moment, Cao ang, with red eyes, roared in a low voice: "once the bridge is cut off, Anmin will never have the chance to escape. There are cavalry in Zhang Xiu''s army. Without the bridge, Anmin can''t evacuate and will die. Xia Houzhong, you can''t cut off the bridge. "Xia Hou Zhong looked at Cao ang, bit his teeth, and threw a voice to the ground: "young master, I am for your safety."


    "If we don''t cut off the bridge, the cavalry in the rear will catch up, and we will be in trouble. We can die, you can''t. So I have to cut the bridge. "


    "Even if you come back to the army and want to punish me or kill me, I don''t have any complaints."


    Xia Houzhong looked at the rest of the soldiers and ordered, "hurry up and do it."


    The rest of the tiger and leopard riding soldiers heard the speech, no longer hesitated, then quickly started.


    The sword fell and cut the bridge rope. A moment later, the rope of the bridge sank into the river and couldn''t cross the river from the bridge any more.


    Seeing this, Cao ang was helpless.


    Xia Houzhong didn''t take care of Cao Ang''s inner thoughts, so he quickly withdrew.


    Chen Dao and his cavalry chased after him. When he and his soldiers chased Lianqiao, he saw the rapid flow of water on the Shahe River, and Lianqiao had sunk into the river.


    At that moment, Chen Dao''s face sank.


    He found that he and Gan Ning had missed a little bit in their plan.


    Forget to cut the bridge.


    After Cao''s vanguard crossed the bridge and entered his ambush area, he should arrange soldiers to cut off the bridge and cut off Cao''s retreat. However, he and Ganning did not think of it.


    So much so that the pursuit failed.


    Almost!


    It''s just a little short of being able to annihilate the Cao army.


    Chen to looked at the flowing river, very helpless, ordered: "withdraw!"


    Chen Dao retreated with his soldiers and soon joined up with Gan Ning. At the moment, Gan Ning had finished the war and was quickly clearing the battlefield, dealing with the killed soldiers and counting the losses.


    Chen Dao asked, "xingba, what are our losses in this war?"


    Gan Ning said: "there were 665 people injured, and very few of them were seriously injured, mostly minor. The casualties of this part of the soldiers were mainly caused by the previous fighting with the Cao army. "


    "Not to mention, Cao Jun is really brilliant."


    "If you don''t have your cavalry, I''m afraid these two thousand soldiers under my command will eventually die here."


    "Cao Jun is really powerful!"


    "After you left, although some Cao soldiers chose to surrender, there were many Cao soldiers who would rather fight to death than surrender. The soldiers of the Cao army are really extraordinary. "


    Gan Ning said: "more than 1200 Cao soldiers were captured in this battle. Most of the others died, and only a few escaped."


    Chen Dao asked, "what is the status of the general of the prisoner?"


    Gan Ning, with a bright smile on his rough cheek, said, "I have tried the surrender soldiers. The general you took is Cao Anmin. He is Cao Cao''s nephew and has a lot to do with Cao Cao. It''s a pity that Cao ang, Cao Cao''s own son, escaped earlier. If you catch him, you catch the big fish. "


    "Alas..."


    Speaking of this, Chen could not help sighing and said: "if we arrange people first and cut off the bridge after Cao ang passed through the bridge, then Cao ang can''t escape. Now, there''s no chance. After crossing the bridge, Cao ang cut off the bridge. Now it''s very difficult to cross the river. "


    Gan Ning thought about it and said, "it''s here. There''s nothing to regret. I''m afraid Cao''s army will not be able to cross the river in a short time. Let''s first withdraw to Lushan and hand over the prisoners to the Lord to see what he will do with them. "


    "Good!"


    Chen Dao nodded.


    They escorted the prisoner and went straight to Lushan.

 Chapter 153

    North of Lianqiao, on the official road.


    A team of people came quickly, and their faces were dignified. They were all auxiliary soldiers sent by Xia Houyuan. The first step was to repair the bridge before Cao Cao''s army arrived, so as to pass smoothly.


    Everyone arrives to check the situation quickly.


    Duan Yi, the assistant commander in charge, gazed at the river nearly eight feet wide. After thinking about it, he had a plan in his mind. He recruited people under his command and immediately arranged for it to be repaired.


    At present, we have to salvage the chain of the bridge first, and then connect and lay the plank again.


    Because there was no boat to cross the river, Duan Yi called the people together and quickly built a raft. He boarded the raft himself and took several soldiers across the river on the raft. Fortunately, it''s just the beginning of spring, it''s not the time for the river to flood in summer.


    Even though the current is a little fast, the river is still and can easily cross the Shahe River.


    After crossing the river, Duan Yi came to the position of the pier on the south side of the river bank.


    He drew close carefully to salvage it.


    "Be careful and slow. Don''t worry. If it''s an iron lock, it''ll be easy for us to repair the bridge. But the iron lock is very heavy. Be careful not to be careless. "


    Duan Yi keeps on giving orders.


    If the boat capsizes when going up the river, it will be dangerous.


    In particular, no one knows water.


    Coupled with the freezing weather, the river is cold. Once it falls into the river, it is also very easy to be infected with wind chill.


    Salvage soldiers, move carefully.


    After a short time, the rope on the left side of the bridge was pulled up. It''s just that the left and right ropes are connected by ropes. Just picking up the iron lock on one side is of no value.


    Both sides must be salvaged at the same time.


    Duan Yi put down his plan to salvage for a while, asked people to support the raft to withdraw, and rebuilt a large raft. He took the soldiers across the river again and salvaged the left and right sides of the bridge at the same time.


    In this way, the rope was lifted.


    Fortunately, the wood of the raft is thick enough, and the raft is huge enough to stand steadily on the river. In addition, the soldiers who supported the raft with bamboo poles, with the help of bamboo poles to stabilize the raft, picked up the iron lock little by little and went along the iron lock to the North Bank of the bridge.


    This scene was discovered by the sentry who was lying in ambush nearby.


    The sentinel soon came to Zhang Xiu and reported the news that Cao Jun had rebuilt the bridge.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised.


    Whether it is to mobilize ships to cross the river or to rebuild the bridge, it is expected.


    What Zhang Xiu wants to do is ambush nearby.


    He will wait for the news of Cao Jun crossing the river.


    Of course, Cao Cao''s way of crossing the river by means of a bridge would be safer. Even if he was washed by the flood, there would be no more soldiers killed or injured than by boat.


    If Cao Cao mobilized large-scale ships to carry soldiers across the river, once the surging river washes down, there must be ships capsizing, and countless Cao soldiers will fall into the water.


    Because the bridge itself is not very wide, it is impossible to have too many soldiers crossing the river at one time. If the water washes over, even if it submerges the bridge and makes the bridge shake endlessly, even if it destroys the bridge, it will kill a little soldier.


    It can''t be too many.


    But for Zhang Xiu, it''s enough.


    What he wanted to do was to weaken Cao Cao''s forces step by step.


    The last time Gan Ning attacked Cao ang, he captured 3000 troops of Cao Cao. Now Cao Cao''s troops are only 27000, which is one tenth less.


    A little bit of weakening.


    It will be easier to deal with Cao Cao when Zhang Xiu''s strength is enhanced and Cao Cao''s strength is weakened.


    Zhang Xiu hides in the distance, waiting quietly.


    Time goes by.


    Cao''s auxiliary troops moved quickly, and after some efforts, they finally bridged the company again.


    However, on the bridge, many wooden boards have disappeared under the scouring of the river. Now to cross the river, we have to lay boards again so that we can cross the bridge.


    Duan Yi didn''t dare to delay. He told the soldiers to prepare the wooden board, and at the same time arranged for the soldiers to continue to make the raft.


    This time, ten rafts were prepared.


    Each raft is more than 80 cm wide. Ten rafts are just eight feet across the river.


    While the soldiers were laying boards on the two iron locks, Duan Yi arranged for his men to put a raft under the bridge and stick it in the river with a bamboo pole to fix it.


    In doing so, we need more protection.


    Even if the bridge body shakes, and even the wooden board on the bridge is a little unstable, there are still rafts under it. In this case, even if there is no bridge, it can cross the river.


    This is a simple wooden bridge.


    Double protection is more conducive to crossing the river.


    After everything is done, Duan Yi looks at the newly paved bridge, and his face also shows a happy smile.It is finally completed.


    "Newspaper!"


    A sentry came quickly, stood beside Duan Yi and said, "Duan Xiaowei, the army of Sikong, is three miles away from Lianqiao. General Xia Hou asked you, "has the bridge been set up?"


    "It''s set up!"


    Duan Yilang replied with a touch of pride on his face.


    His auxiliary soldiers were very quick in building bridges, paving roads, setting up fortifications and setting up camps.


    This is his specialty.


    "Good!"


    When the sentry got the news, he immediately returned to report it.


    After a short time, the army led by Xia Houyuan arrived at Lianqiao. But instead of crossing the bridge at once, the army stayed in place.


    Xia Houyuan came to Cao Cao''s side and reported: "Lord, the bridge has been laid. Not only that, under the bridge, Duanyi also uses raft reinforcement to avoid shaking of the bridge. Are we going to cross the river now? "


    Cao Cao nodded: "cross the river, let the soldiers who cross the river first set up fortifications to prevent attack."


    "Here it is


    XiaHouYuan responded with a solemn look.


    Cao ang was standing beside Cao Cao at the moment. He looked at the figure of Xia Houyuan leaving and the flowing river. His face was cold and solemn, with a touch of regret.


    I hate being reckless.


    I hate that I can''t save Cao Anmin.


    In his view, it was this bridge that blocked Cao Anmin''s way back.


    Cao Cao glanced at Cao ang without saying much.


    Some things can only be borne by Cao ang himself.


    This is the battlefield.


    Cruel!


    More killing!


    With Xia Houyuan''s order, Cao''s soldiers, armed with shields and spears, began to cross the river quickly. After crossing the river, this group of soldiers immediately set up a garrison around.


    The next wave of soldiers is the auxiliary soldiers in the army.


    After crossing the river on a large scale, these soldiers laid fortifications in place to prevent Zhang Xiu from attacking them.


    When auxiliary soldiers set up fortifications, Cao Cao''s soldiers did not cross the river. They did not cross the river on a large scale until all the fortifications were properly arranged.


    Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to hide not far away. When he got the news that Cao Cao''s army had crossed the river, he looked at the soldiers around him and ordered them to go down and inform Ganning upstream to break the dike and release water


    He''s not ready to attack now.


    After the flood, it was not too late to attack Cao Cao''s army.


    At the beginning, one of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers waved the flag every hundred steps. The follow-up soldiers could see it, and then they continued to send messages. When the distance is a little longer, it will be notified by the arrow, and every other period of time it will be notified by the arrow.


    It''s similar to wolf smoke.


    One by one.


    In this way, we can get the news to Gan Ning in the shortest time. It would be a waste of time for the soldiers to ride to inform. When the news reached Ganning, Cao Jun would have to cross the river.


    It was not long before the news reached Ganning''s ears. He heard the sound of arrows not far away and ordered, "break the dike!"


    At the command, the soldiers dug up the river bank.


    The river embankment built by Ganning was originally an existing one. At this location, the river channel is relatively narrow, and it is easy to block the river, so he can complete the construction of the river embankment in a short time.


    As the levee was dug, the river began to surge.


    "Boom!"


    Under the turbulent River, the river quickly broke through the embankment, and then the river seemed to roar wildly, galloping down.


    The water is turbulent and mighty.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ganning dug the dam and ordered to retreat.


    The rapid flow of the river, not long, will reach the location of the bridge.


    At this time, the river began to rise.


    Cao''s soldiers, who were crossing the river, found the rising water, and found that the visible rising water began to panic. In particular, the rapid impact of water down, hit the bridge, making the bridge began to shake up.


    All the rafts under the bridge were submerged by the river and swayed endlessly.


    The soldiers crossing the bridge are in a mess.


    This scene, fall in the eyes of Xia Houyuan, his heart after seeing this.


    It''s a trick!


    He was ambushed by Zhang Xiu again.

 Chapter 154

    "Boom!"


    Under the impact of the turbulent River, there was a roaring sound.


    Under the impact of the current, some Cao soldiers slipped and fell into the water. In a hurry, they didn''t have time to grasp the rope or the iron lock of the bridge, so they were washed away by the river and disappeared.


    Many soldiers fell into the water.


    Xia Hou Ying was even more nervous when he saw that the river was getting fiercer and higher. He quickly ordered to forbid the follow-up soldiers to cross the river, and he quickly came to Cao Cao''s side.


    Xia Houyuan said: "Lord, there is a big water scouring down the upper reaches. It must be Zhang Xiu who sent someone to build a dam in the upper reaches, and then dig the dam to let the turbulent River wash."


    Cao Cao came to the Bank of the river.


    He looked at the swift river with a gloomy face.


    There are some newly growing weeds along the channel of Shahe River. But under the flood of the river, the weeds were soon submerged, and the river continued to rise.


    At least, it will go up for a while.


    Guo Jia stood beside Cao Cao, with a solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "Lord, although the river is surging against the soldiers, as long as the soldiers on the bridge don''t panic and hold on to the iron lock, it won''t be too dangerous."


    "Besides, there are not many soldiers on the bridge."


    "As long as the soldiers keep their shape and carry over the scour of the river, Zhang Xiu will not pose any threat to us on the river."


    "Now the most important thing is that Zhang Xiu must lay an ambush on the south bank."


    "Although we arranged for the soldiers to set up fortifications, although we let the soldiers go to make defensive posture with helmets. But Zhang Xiu''s attack will certainly not be too weak. "


    Guo Jia said: "the current situation must be supported. When the flood peak of this wave is over, the army will quickly cross the river, form combat effectiveness on the south bank and block Zhang Xiu''s offensive."


    After listening to Guo Jia''s analysis, Cao Cao''s face slightly improved.


    That''s true.


    Zhang Xiu used the river to form an offensive, only this wave.


    Next, the offensive on the south bank.


    Xia Houyuan also heard Guo Jia''s analysis. After hearing this, he had a strong look on his face and solemnly said, "Lord, don''t worry, all the soldiers will cross the river safely. The obstacles set by Zhang Xiu can''t stop us from moving forward. "


    "Go


    Cao Cao waved his hand.


    XiaHouYuan came to the Bank of the bridge and directed the soldiers to resist the river.


    The river is coming in waves with great strength.


    At this time, we can only carry it dead.


    Many Cao soldiers failed to stand firmly on the bridge, so that they fell down from the company Bridge and into the river. At that time, they did not know where they were washed.


    Now, on the south bank.


    Zhang Xiu no longer delay time, directly with the soldiers out, close to the river Cao Jun. This time, Zhang Xiu led his troops from Lushan and dispatched 5000 elite soldiers.


    All the soldiers were fighting high spirited and howling, just like the fierce hungry wolf, they went straight to Cao Jun.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu drives the horse to carry the gun and charge forward.


    When Zhang Xiu rushed to kill, Cao''s soldiers across the river quickly set up their positions. There are shield and spearmen in front, and archers in the rear. With the archers bowing and taking arrows, they aimed at Zhang Xiu who launched the attack.


    "Camp Sirius, go!"


    Chen Dao is on the side of Zhang Xiu. When he sees that there are archers on the other side, he doesn''t hesitate to order the attack.


    Although the bow and arrow are powerful, they are only a short distance away.


    At the moment, the number of Cao troops crossing the river is still small, and their combat effectiveness is limited. This is the best time to defeat the other side. Once this opportunity is missed, it is not easy to defeat Cao''s soldiers.


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves were racing and trampling on the ground.


    The cavalry of Sirius battalion rushed forward quickly. When they rushed into the battle, they took out the short gun from the pocket of the horse''s belly and held it in their hands. I saw a soldier charging, the body back a Yang, will be in the hands of the shotgun thrown out.


    "Whew! Whew


    A short gun across the air, broke the arrow rain formed by bow and arrow, straight ahead.


    Although Cao Jun''s arrow rain was formed by bows and arrows, the strength of bows and arrows was far less than that of short guns. In particular, with the help of the power of the horse sprint, the cavalry is very powerful when throwing a shotgun.


    With a sharp whistling sound hanging from the short gun, it was as strong as a bamboo. In a twinkling of an eye, it reached the top of Cao''s soldiers.


    Cao''s soldiers in the front raise their shields to resist.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    Many short guns were fired on the shield.


    Under the impact of great force, the arms of Cao''s soldiers were numb. These shield soldiers can resist the attack of the short guns, but the archers hiding behind the shield soldiers become the living targets when the short guns fall.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The shotgun goes into the archer''s body and takes his life.Cao''s archers slaughtered Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, and Chen''s cavalry immediately fought back.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the cavalry broke through the range of archery.


    As soon as he came near the shield soldiers, he saw them arrayed, lifting up their shields and spearing them out to kill the cavalry. However, Chen Dao quickly waved the flag in his hand. This order was issued. His cavalry started from the front and dispersed on both sides. Then he bypassed the shield soldiers and killed the archers in the back.


    This is the purpose of Chen Dao.


    Shield soldiers, give them to Zhang Xiu.


    His task was to attack the archers in the rear and the rest of the Cao soldiers who arrived.


    Zhang Xiu led 5000 elite soldiers, braved the rain of arrows, followed closely, and soon arrived at the place where the shield soldiers were. He did not choose to bypass, but to kill in front of the shield soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu''s golden spear in her hand swept out. The barrel of the gun swept past, and the spear from the shield swung away. The horse in the crotch is raised and stepped down.


    "Pa! Bang


    The hooves fell and trampled on the shield.


    In an instant, under the impact of the great power, the Cao soldiers squatted on the ground, holding the shield directly broke their arms, and with the shield pressed down, they directly pressed on the Cao soldiers'' bodies.


    All this happened in a flash.


    At the moment when the horse''s front hooves fell to the ground, another spear came to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, there is no panic, once again swing the gun, swing open the spear. The golden spear in his hand pierced the body of several Cao soldiers.


    He had a long gun like a stick and swept again.


    Just listen to the sound of percussion, one by one Cao soldiers shot in the chest, have fallen to the ground.


    The formation of the shield soldiers was torn open.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu pointed a gun, and the soldiers under her command quickly attacked along the slit and entered Cao''s soldiers. If it''s a long gun formation in good condition, it''s not easy to break it.


    But after tearing a hole, this formation has lost its function.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command were close to each other and slashed with their swords.


    Although it comes from the gun, it can''t resist the attack from a long distance. Because the long gun is difficult to move, unable to go all out to attack.


    One by one, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers kept slashing.


    The screams, the screams.


    The long gun array broke down immediately.


    Even if Cao''s soldiers quickly changed formation and wanted to resist, it was too late. Because not only did Zhang Xiu attack, Zhang Xiu''s infantry were also fighting, and Chen Zhi''s cavalry were on the side.


    Chen Zhi led the cavalry, back and forth to cover up, making the whole Cao army formation chaotic.


    "Block it!"


    "Get out of my way!"


    The leader Cao Jun roared, but his face was full of anxiety. Today, there are more than 5000 Cao soldiers crossing the river. Even if they are ambushed, it should not be such a chaotic situation.


    Although Cao''s army was defeated, Cao''s army was still resisting.


    This scene was seen by Cao Cao on the north bank.


    Cao Cao drew from the corner of his mouth, and a gloomy look passed over his face. His sharp eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. According to the information sent back by the sentinel, Zhang Xiu is holding a big gun, and she is young.


    In fact, when Cao Cao was in Luoyang, he also heard of Zhang Xiu''s reputation and knew that Zhang Xiu was the king of guns in the Xiliang army. Of course, Zhang Xiu''s reputation is far less than that of Lv Bu.


    At that time, Lu Bu was the first martial arts man in the Xiliang army.


    "Lord, please fight."


    All of a sudden, Dian Wei stood up from Cao Cao, his eyes full of high morale.

 Chapter 155

    Dian Wei has excellent eyesight. He has seen Zhang Xiu. Now, there is no tiger general on the South Bank of Lianqiao, so that Zhang Xiu drives his horse to charge, killing Cao''s troops one by one.


    Pawey can''t get used to it.


    He wants to fight, to stop Zhang Xiu.


    Knowing the martial arts of Dian Wei, Cao Cao nodded: "Dian Wei, be careful. Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are excellent. She is not an easy match. "


    "Don''t worry, Lord!"


    Dian Wei got Cao Cao''s approval and showed a bright smile on his face.


    He rushed to the Bank of the river quickly, grabbed the iron lock with both hands, and rushed to the South Bank of the bridge in the rushing river. It was under the bridge that the raft was prepared. If there is no raft, even the bridge will never be able to cross the river under the flood.


    Pawey stepped on the board and crossed the river quickly.


    He''s very fast.


    Eight Zhang distance, but in an instant, he had reached the South Bank of the river. Dian Wei''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Xiu. He took out the iron halberd from his back with both hands.


    The two iron halberds in his hands were all black. The blade of the halberd was bright and cold.


    This is pawey''s weapon.


    He stepped on the foot, quickly rushed to Zhang Xiu, roared: "Zhang Xiu, Dian Wei is here, take life!"


    He is a big man.


    It is as powerful as the iron tower.


    In front of him, a soldier came forward to stop him. However, Dian Wei''s Halberd fell and his blade cut off. With the sound of a clang, the soldier who was hit by Dian Wei vomited blood in his mouth and fell to the ground. He had more air out and less air in. He saw that he had no life.


    Dian Wei''s rapid sprint, not long, has been close to Zhang Xiu. He has high morale in his eyes and is ready to win Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu also found Dianwei.


    In fact, Dian Wei didn''t see Zhang Xiu, only relying on intelligence information, so he judged Zhang Xiu''s identity.


    But Zhang Xiu has seen Dian Wei.


    Zhang Xiu not only saw Dian Wei, but also joined hands with his soldiers to kill him in the first world.


    He knew the martial arts of Dianwei.


    Once upon a time, Zhang Xiu was not Dianwei''s opponent at all, though she had a good shooting skill.


    Because no matter how skillful he was, in front of Dianwei, he was beaten by Dianwei. No matter how ingenious his shooting skills are, they can''t be used at all.


    It can only be beaten by pawey.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is different. Since he came back from later generations, his whole body has changed and his strength has increased a lot. In particular, Zhang Xiu has been practicing hard and her martial arts has been improving all the time.


    Now, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know how strong she is.


    Because Zhang Xiu now meets the strongest, that is, Chen Dao.


    Wen pin is not his rival.


    Wei Yan is not his opponent.


    Ganning is not his opponent.


    Especially with the passage of time, Zhang Xiu feels that the strength of her body is still increasing. Although Zhang Xiu doesn''t understand the change after tomorrow, she doesn''t think it''s a bad thing.


    This is the age of cold weapons.


    In this era, personal martial arts, though unable to dominate the victory or defeat of a war, are also crucial.


    Meet Dian Wei kill to come, Zhang Xiu no longer ride a horse, quickly turn over to dismount. He knew that pawey was powerful under the horse. Under such a premise, although he had an advantage on the horse, it was a very easy time for him to kill his horse and make him fall from it.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Dianwei killed him.


    "Kill


    Dian Wei stepped on the ground and jumped up. He swung his iron halberd and chopped it down to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed slightly.


    Dian Wei''s chopping power is great, but in fact, the speed is not fast. With Zhang Xiu''s flexibility, he can easily avoid it, but Zhang Xiu also wants to try her own strength.


    He clenched the golden spear with both hands and raised the tripod with one move. The golden spear rose to resist Dianwei''s attack.


    "Dang!"


    Weapon impact, impact sound, shock Zhang Xiu''s eardrum is a burst of pain.


    That voice is too sharp.


    Especially at the impact site, there were sparks everywhere.


    Zhang Xiu in the impact of the force, can not stabilize the body, pedaling back, back four and a half steps in succession, to stabilize the body. His hands holding the gun were slightly numb.


    It''s really that Dian Wei''s chopping power is too strong.


    He looked down and saw a mark on the barrel of the golden gun. This is just now, Dian Wei chopped it out. The golden spear with tiger head in Zhang Xiu''s hand is made of 100 steel. It is extremely hard.


    Can cut out the impression, we can see its strength.


    Under the attack of the anti earthquake force, Dianwei''s face changed slightly, and his center of gravity could not be controlled and retreated. He took four steps back to stabilize himself.When looking at Zhang Xiu, her eyes are full of war.


    This is his enemy.


    "That''s interesting. Come again!"


    Dian Wei''s killing rose, his fighting spirit was high, and he swung his iron halberd to kill again.


    Zhang Xiu never gives up.


    He''s carrying a long gun. He''s attacking fast. The golden spear in Zhang Xiu''s hand is like an armyman, or like a long stick smashed out, or a long spear stabbed at his chest, or heavy as a mountain, or light as the wind. With a big gun in his hand, the shooting technique has already entered the room.


    His shooting method is no longer limited to form.


    Pawey was not afraid at all.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, Dian Wei never stepped back and constantly resisted.


    They fought each other for 30 moves.


    The fight between the two fell into the eyes of Cao Cao on the North Bank of Lianqiao. Cao Cao was shocked to see Zhang Xiu face Zhan Dianwei alone.


    In his opinion, Dian Wei was born with divine power, which was powerful enough to suppress the generals.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu can fight Dian Wei alone.


    Under Cao Cao''s command, Dian Wei''s martial arts are ranked first. If Zhang Xiu didn''t lose the battle against Dian Wei, it can almost be considered that most of Cao Cao''s generals were not Zhang Xiu''s opponents.


    "What a fierce general!"


    Seeing this, Cao Cao couldn''t help feeling.


    Guo Jia stood aside, with a touch of brilliance in his eyes, and said, "my Lord, when he saw Zhang Xiu''s martial arts, did he love his talents? It''s a pity that Zhang Xiu is both civil and military. Such a person is arrogant and can''t submit to the Lord. On the contrary, he is the Lord''s threat. "


    "It is!"


    Cao Cao shook his head with regret.


    It''s a pity.


    If a tiger general like Zhang Xiu can be used by him, he will be able to compete with the rest of the world.


    On the battlefield, Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei are still fighting.


    On the surface, the fighting between the two people is half the weight, and there is not much difference between them.


    But as a client, Zhang Xiu knows her own martial arts, which is a little bit worse than Dian Wei. If we continue to fight with Dianwei, the more we get to the end, the more obvious his gap will be.


    In the early stage, I can''t tell anything.


    In the later stage, the gap was opened.


    Zhang Xiu knows that she can''t win, but she also has a rough judgment about her own martial arts.


    Now, he is no match for dianway.


    However, Dian Wei''s martial arts is at its peak, and there is no room for improvement. On the contrary, his own martial arts are still improving little by little, and his strength is also growing little by little.


    Under such circumstances, as long as Zhang Xiu is given a certain amount of time, it is not difficult to defeat Dian Wei.


    But not now.


    When Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei were fighting, he looked around. Now Chen Dao''s cavalry and his soldiers had killed many Cao soldiers.


    But now Cao''s soldiers have gradually stabilized the situation.


    From the beginning, the declining momentum gradually became able to stabilize the situation, and even began to counter attack.


    Because more and more Cao Jun crossed the bridge.


    Chen Dao is a wise general on the battlefield. He noticed that more and more Cao Jun turned his horse''s head and went to the place where Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei fought. As soon as he got close to Dian Wei, the big gun stabbed out fiercely, forcing Dian Wei to retreat.


    Chen Dao said: "Lord, there are more and more Cao troops. It''s not suitable to love war. Withdraw."


    "Withdraw!"


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to give a direct order.


    No longer fighting with Dianwei, he quickly retreated into the soldiers, and then came to his horse, turned over and got on the horse, and quickly took the soldiers out of the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are well-trained.


    They got the order, and they didn''t like to fight, so they quickly retreated.


    Chen Dao withdrew from the battlefield with his cavalry.


    Although Dian Wei didn''t know how to March and set up the array, he knew that it was impossible to cover up and kill when the other side had cavalry. He could only let Zhang Xiu''s army withdraw.


    After Zhang Xiu withdrew, Cao Cao''s soldiers quickly reorganized the army, waiting for Cao Cao''s army to arrive.

 Chapter 156

    Dianwei was waiting on the South Bank of the bridge while he was reorganizing the soldiers. After a short time, Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan and others crossed the Shahe River to the South Bank of the bridge.


    Cao Cao looked at the corpse on the ground and the dark purple ground stained with blood. His face was solemn.


    This time, not only did some soldiers fall into the water because of the impact of the flood, but also countless soldiers were slaughtered by Zhang Xiu''s soldiers. His loss was not small.


    Cao Cao made an inspection tour and did not speak.


    About two quarters of an hour later, Xia Houyuan came to Cao Cao''s side and reported: "Lord, I have counted the losses on the battlefield. In this war, we lost more than 1500 soldiers. Among them, 1268 died in the previous fighting. There are more than 200 people who have fallen into the Shahe River, and so far no one has been found. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes were cold.


    The loss of this war is a little big.


    It was just a short battle time, and the loss under his command reached more than 1000 people, which shows the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Cao Cao looked at Dian Wei and said, "Dian Wei, you should know Zhang Xiu''s martial arts if you fight with her close to each other. How about his martial arts? "


    Dian Wei raised his head and confidently said, "I''ll tell you, my Lord, the martial arts of the last general is a little better than Zhang Xiu. If you give me enough time, I can beat Zhang Xiu. But if we want to kill Zhang Xiu in a short time, we can''t finish it. "


    Dian Wei also admired Zhang Xiu.


    The other side is very good at martial arts.


    Cao Cao''s listening to Dian Wei''s reply was even more heartless. A cunning Zhang Xiu, a martial arts strong Zhang Xiu, the two superimposed together, it is very difficult.


    Guo Jia stood aside and said in a deep voice, "Lord, I found a problem in my humble position."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the problem?"


    Guo Jiaming''s bright eyes sparkled with wisdom and said: "when we entered Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu''s strategy was not to fight with us on a large scale, but to fight on a small scale all the time."


    "The last time I attacked young master ang, it was like this."


    "This time, too."


    "If Zhang Xiu wants to have a decisive battle with us on a large scale, when we cross the river, he can do his best to block the river bank and fight with us to the death."


    "But he only brought some soldiers. After our army crossed the Shahe, he withdrew


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu''s intention is to block and weaken our strength. It is estimated that the final decisive battle place for Zhang Xiu is in the front line of Lushan. "


    Cao Cao is also a wise man.


    With a little thought, he understood Zhang Xiu''s intention and agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "even if we have lost some troops, our strength is still stronger than Zhang Xiu. Besides, there are plans made by fengxiao. We cross the river sand, and then proceed carefully to avoid being ambushed by Zhang Xiu. "


    He has no way to harass Zhang Xiu.


    Because this is not the terrain Cao Cao is familiar with, he is in Luyang County, unable to mobilize the people, unable to understand the detailed terrain.


    In Yanzhou, Cao Cao had many ways.


    But this is Luyang county.


    With a solemn look on his face, Cao Cao ordered: "XiaHouYuan, reorganize the army and prepare to set out. You arrange a small team of soldiers to stay at the bridge and be responsible for guarding the bridge. This is an extremely important place, and it can no longer be destroyed and occupied by Zhang Xiu''s people. "


    "Here it is


    Xia Houyuan responded directly.


    He made arrangements immediately, and then led the army on his way.


    ¡­¡­


    On the other side, Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao led the troops to retreat.


    They retreated a certain distance away from the bridge before stopping to rest and count the losses.


    After counting, Chen Dao came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, eight of our cavalry and more than 400 of our infantry were killed in this battle. On the whole, we still had the advantage and killed a lot of Cao''s soldiers. At that time, it was estimated that Cao''s death and injury should be more than 1000 people. "


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s about this number!"


    Zhang Xiu was barely satisfied with the results of the war. After all, she killed more than 1000 Cao soldiers.


    It''s just that Cao''s army is elite and hard to deal with.


    When the army stopped, Ganning returned from the upstream with his soldiers. He came to Zhang Xiu''s side, looked at her and asked, "Lord, what''s the situation of this war?"


    Zhang Xiu said the situation immediately.


    When Gan Ning heard this, he was not reconciled and said, "only the loss of more than 1000 people means that Cao Cao did not mobilize large-scale ships to cross the river, but crossed the river by connecting bridges?"


    Once the boat crossed the river, under the flood, there must be countless Cao soldiers died.


    Unfortunately, there is no such number.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and replied: "Cao Cao is not easy, and the counselors around him are not wine bags. It''s good that we can fight against Cao Cao and win to a certain extent. "Gan Ning also nodded yes.


    Think about it, Cao Cao is a man who gives orders to the princes. It''s very good that he can defeat Cao Cao.


    "Withdraw!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    Cao Jun has passed the Shahe, Zhang Xiu does not intend to continue the ambush. Because the continuous ambush has made Cao Cao alert, at this time, the effect of continuous ambush is not very useful, it is better to withdraw directly to the front line of Lushan and defend with the help of the terrain of Lushan.


    When Zhang Xiu retreated, Cao Jun was approaching step by step.


    Zhang Xiu returned to Lushan barracks.


    Jia Xu came to the big account of the Chinese army and asked Zhang Xiu about the details of the fighting.


    Knowing the result, Jia Xu was also quite satisfied.


    Zhang Xiu did not send any more troops, waiting quietly in Lushan. With the passage of time, in the twinkling of an eye, it was mid February, and the weather was getting warmer.


    Cao Jun also arrived at the front line of Lushan.


    Cao Cao''s army arrived and camped not far away.


    Because Cao Cao arrived in the evening of the afternoon when it was dark, which was not conducive to the attack. So instead of launching an attack immediately, Cao Cao camped in place.


    The army came from mountains and rivers, tired all the way, and needed a certain amount of time to adjust its state and restore its combat effectiveness.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Cao Cao early mobilized the army, with all the soldiers, directly to the camp of Zhang Xiu at the foot of Lushan.


    The army is mighty and fierce.


    When Cao Cao''s troops arrived outside Zhang Xiu''s camp, they beat the battle drum. The sound of the drum is loud and powerful, soaring into the sky.


    "Woo! Woo


    The long and distant sound of the horn also sounded immediately.


    The fierce murderous spirit diffused from the army.


    In front of the army.


    Cao Cao, dressed in armour, rode his horse and looked out at Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    In the barracks.


    Zhang Xiu put on his armor and came to the gate of the camp. His eyes fell on Cao Cao, and his eyes were cold and fierce.


    He admired Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao has a heart.


    Back then, in the war in Wancheng, he killed Cao Cao''s son and Cao Cao''s beloved general Dian Wei, making Cao Cao run away at the expense of his troops. But in the end, Cao Cao was still willing to accept his surrender.


    Such people are not simple.


    But he and Cao Cao are opposite.


    He now stands on his own side and wants to compete in the world, which is different from Cao Cao''s position. Even if Zhang Xiu admires Cao Cao, but Zhang Xiu will not have the slightest soft hearted, should kill still want to kill.


    Cao Cao took the lead in saying: "Zhang Xiu, the official of Cao Cao, was ordered by the son of heaven to fight against the undeserving officials. If you act recklessly in Nanyang County, you should be punished. With your strength, you can only increase your smile if you want to resist our army. If you surrender, I can save your life and even recommend you to the emperor so that you can become an official in the court. "


    Hearing Cao Cao''s words, Zhang Xiu said, "Cao Gong, you don''t have to tell me about the words. You don''t have to tell me what you mean by the order of the son of heaven. Because here, the so-called destiny of the emperor is your own order? If you want to attack Zhang Xiu, don''t talk nonsense, just attack directly. But before that, I want you to meet someone. "


    "Come on, take Cao Anmin out."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and gave the order.


    With the order, Cao Anmin was brought out. Today''s Cao Anmin, with his head down, his eyes absent, his lips dry and his cheeks pale, is dying and quite miserable.


    He was tied to the stake, the body soft prone to stand on the wooden car, is very sad.


    Zhang Xiu pointed to Cao Anmin and said, "Cao Gong, you want to attack me. However, Cao Anmin is in my hands. You said, "what should I do with him?"

 Chapter 157

    When Cao Cao saw Cao Anmin who was brought out, his eyes changed color and became fierce.


    At this moment, Cao Cao also felt embarrassed.


    He is very clear that this is Zhang Xiu deliberately, is deliberately to let him choose, let him decide Cao Anmin''s life and death. In Cao Cao''s heart, he hoped that Cao Anmin would survive.


    This is his nephew.


    It''s his family!


    But if Cao Anmin is to survive, it means that Cao Cao must give up his plan to attack Zhang Xiu. Cao Cao''s plan to capture the territory of Nanyang County was a complete failure.


    It is difficult for Cao Cao to advance or retreat.


    Cao ang, with red eyes, clenched his fist.


    His impression of Cao Anmin, with a faint smile, handsome and elegant, confident and calm. But in front of him, Cao Anmin''s face was withered. He was dying and his whole body was covered with blood.


    When the blood dried up, the color turned dark red.


    It looks shocking.


    "Zhang Xiu, damn you!"


    Cao Ang''s hysterical roar filled his eyes with the intention of killing. He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, then save Cao Anmin, and then treat Cao Anmin''s injury.


    Zhang Xiu heard Cao Ang''s voice.


    Others didn''t know Cao ang, but Zhang Xiu did.


    With a cold smile, Zhang Xiu said, "Cao ang, you are so naive, even more naive, and despised. You take the army to Nanyang County and invade my official area. "


    "Who was the first to start?"


    "It''s you, Cao Shi!"


    "If it wasn''t for you, Cao ang, who took the army to attack Nanyang County, would you be ambushed? can''t! Will Cao Anmin fall into the hands of this official? Not at all! "


    "You are responsible for all this, and you deserve it."


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp words continued: "as for Cao Anmin''s miserable situation, who is to blame? If you think about it from another angle, I''d rather die than surrender. I''m afraid my situation is no better than Cao Anmin. "


    "You, Cao ang, don''t blame me."


    "In this battlefield, either you kill me or I kill you. Everyone knows the cruelty of the battlefield. Now that you''re on the battlefield, put away your poor self-esteem and don''t look like you''re being compassionate. "


    "If you want to fight, I will fight."


    Zhang Xiu said in a voice: "but don''t be hypocritical. Standing on the commanding point of morality, what''s wrong with accusing me. If you want to blame it, blame yourself for being inferior to others. "


    These words are sonorous and forceful.


    But it''s also penetrating.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are rough, but the truth is not. Since those who go to war want to fight, they should hang their heads around their waists and be ready to be killed at any time.


    Killers, people always kill!


    Such is the battle on the battlefield.


    Cao ang was stunned and speechless by Zhang Xiu. In a flash, Cao ang also came back to himself and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, I don''t care what you say or do, but you treat the people like this. You and I are irreconcilable."


    "Irresistible?"


    Zhang Xiu sneer, disdain way: "you talk like, really like a retarded.". You mean, if I don''t treat Cao Anmin like this, can the relationship be relaxed? Or do we have a good relationship now? "


    Cao ang was dumb and speechless.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Cao Ang''s words, she was angry and took out her whip. That thumb thick whip, shake in the air, then mercilessly toward Cao Anmin body to draw.


    "Pa!"


    The whip fell and beat Cao Anmin.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Cao Anmin''s mouth. His body, at this moment, is shushushushushushuo shaking, the whole person incomparably miserable. Just now he was in a daze. Now he was whipped by Zhang Xiu, and then he woke up.


    This scene fell into Cao Ang''s eyes, and his heart was like a knife.


    He was filled with anger.


    However, he is also extremely remorseful.


    Blame him!


    It''s all his fault to underestimate the enemy.


    If he had not despised the enemy, the present situation would not have happened.


    Cao Cao sat on the horse''s back. Seeing this, he frowned and held the reins tightly. He looked at Zhang Xiu''s eyes and became more fierce than ever before.


    At this moment, he felt tricky.


    Once upon a time, he did not put Zhang Xiu in his eyes, thinking that it was not so difficult to solve Zhang Xiu.


    He now began to face Zhang Xiu.


    This man is not simple.


    Cao Anmin''s vision also became clear. The burning pain sobered him up a lot. His eyes fell on Cao Cao and Cao ang, and he said in a loud voice: "Lord, don''t worry about me, don''t worry about me. Kill, kill Zhang Xiu! "


    His hysterical roar.


    He tried his best to roar, and his face was very firm.


    He is not afraid of death!As a man who is used to life and death and has been used to fighting on the battlefield, he has long been not afraid of life and death. He just didn''t want his existence to be an obstacle for Cao Cao to attack Zhang Xiu, and he didn''t want to be a burden for the whole Cao army.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Cao Anmin''s words, she also praised Cao Anmin''s courage.


    It''s a hero!


    It''s a man!


    Unfortunately, it''s not the right time.


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, continued: "Cao ang, hear Cao Anmin''s words? This is your brother, for your life, willing to cut off for you, in order to protect your safe evacuation. He is respectable and worthy. And you cao ang, a coward. "


    Now, Zhang Xiu is aiming at Cao ang.


    Cao ang was young, inexperienced and inexperienced, and his disposition was easily affected.


    People like Cao Cao, who have gone through half a life, have long been used to life and death, and have gone through countless storms. Even if they are unwilling to give up, they can not give up the army''s action because of Cao Anmin. Even if Zhang Xiu''s mouth broke the sky, it would not affect Cao Cao.


    This is old fox.


    But Cao ang is different.


    Cao ang, a young man, is easily influenced by stimulation. Even though Cao ang went to battle several times, he had never encountered such a thing or a fierce battle in the past.


    Once Cao ang was deeply involved in it, he was likely to become a demon, which would affect his later life.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao saw Cao Ang''s look, understood Zhang Xiu''s intention, and immediately scolded: "ang''er, you can''t be influenced by Zhang Xiu. Anything on the battlefield is possible. "


    Cao ang gave a sad smile.


    He looked at the bound Cao ang with a look of incomparable pain.


    Cao Cao sighed in his eyes.


    His son is good at everything, but he is too affectionate. As a monarch, it''s bad to attach importance to love.


    Kings, most merciless.


    Once there is love, it is easy to be fettered and unable to let go.


    Cao Cao''s eyes were cold, and gradually recovered his composure, and said: "Zhang Xiu, you said a big call, have you finished? If you want to kill Cao Anmin, it''s hard for my official to intervene or even manage. I tell you that as long as you kill Anmin, I, Cao Cao, will be at odds with you. In this life, even if you embroider all over the world, I will never let you go. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to laugh.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Zhang Xiu''s jaw rose and her tone was rebellious, and she said: "Cao Gong, Cao Gong, your words are not up to standard. You threaten me with cruel words, which means that you are ready to attack? "


    "You intend to attack regardless of Cao Anmin''s life, so you threaten."


    "What you said is to take off your responsibility and put Cao Anmin''s life and death in my hands. If you threaten me, then it''s my responsibility to kill Cao Anmin again, and you will have no responsibility. "


    "Right, that''s your intention."


    "If you don''t care about Cao Cao, you can order the attack and no longer care about Cao Anmin''s life and death."


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "the person that Zhang Xiu despises most in her life is the one who shirks responsibility like this. You, Cao Cao, have spent half your life fighting decisively. Even if you are a hero, you are also true


    "If you want to take Cao Anmin''s life into consideration, you can attack directly. Why do you do so much?"


    "Who said that Cao Anmin''s life is in my hands."


    "As long as Cao Cao withdraws, I promise that we will not kill Cao Anmin. We can also dispatch doctors to treat Cao Anmin''s injuries immediately, so that he will not be in pain all day and all night."


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t be a whore. You want to build a memorial archway. This is not good. Regardless of Cao Anmin''s life, you should attack directly. I''ll take over Zhang Xiu, but don''t blame me for Cao Anmin''s death. "


    Cao Cao frowned when he heard the speech.


    In his eyes, there was a touch of fear and shock. Zhang Xiu was really powerful. At a glance, he saw through his inner thoughts and said it in a red - naked - naked way.


    What Cao Cao said just now is a shirking of responsibility.


    He wants to put the responsibility on Zhang Xiu, and then ready to attack.


    He could not ignore the army just because Cao Anmin was alone. So, with Cao Cao''s words. Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhang Xiu came back directly.


    For a time, Cao Cao was in a dilemma.


    What to do?


    Cao Cao quickly used his brain to think about the strategies to break the deadlock.

 Chapter 158

    Dian Wei, with a solemn look, stood up and said in a loud voice: "since Zhang Xiu wants to compete archery, let''s take Cao Anmin out. People are always in your camp. How to shoot arrows? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "no hurry, no hurry!"


    Facing Dianwei, Zhang Xiu doesn''t have any anxiety and panic. He has enough patience and time.


    As soon as her eyes turned, Zhang Xiu looked at Cao Cao and said slowly, "if you want to have an archery contest, you also have to take care of the demands of both sides. You can''t move people out. Cao Cao will directly send troops to rob people. Then I will lose."


    "Of course, Cao Gong is not willing to let Dian Wei come to my camp to compete. He will worry that I will mobilize soldiers to ambush Dian Wei. So my plan is to arrange soldiers to escort Cao Anmin out of the camp and compete within 20 steps outside the camp."


    "This distance is within the range of the archers in our army. At the same time, there will be soldiers around Cao Anmin. As long as Cao Gong has any change, the soldiers will kill Cao Anmin first. "


    "As for Dianwei and I, we are on the line of 20 steps outside the camp, 80 steps away from Cao Anmin to shoot arrows."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Cao, what do you think?"


    Cao Cao''s secret way and Zhang Xiu''s caution.


    It''s not easy to be so careful under such a premise.


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "your consideration is very comprehensive. I''ll do it according to your will. Zhang Taishou, this is a gentleman''s agreement between you and me. If you lose to Dian Wei later, don''t let Lin Chen go back. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I Zhang Xiu line, sit straight, will fulfill the promise."


    He gave a resounding answer.


    Gan Ning stood aside, hearing Zhang Xiu''s bet, frowned and said: "Lord, why do you bet with Cao Cao? With Cao Anmin in our hands, we have an advantage. In case of failure, it''s tricky. "


    Zhang Xiu face is full of confidence, said: "Xing Ba, I will not lose.". What''s more, it''s not a big deal. "


    With a wave of his hand, the soldiers escorted Cao Anmin out of the camp.


    At the same time, the archers in the camp quickly put in place, all holding bows and arrows, aiming at Cao Anmin''s direction. As long as Cao Cao has any change, not only Cao Anmin''s soldiers will launch an offensive, but also the soldiers in the camp will shoot arrows.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s awe.


    After Zhang Xiu was in place, she waited for Dian Wei to come.


    Jia Xu looked at Zhang Xiu, who looked at Gan Ning, who was worried, and said with a smile, "in fact, you really don''t have to worry about your adult."


    Gan Ning said in a deep voice: "Sir, Dianwei is not simple and easy to deal with. Don''t you worry about the Lord''s defeat? You should know that there are people out there, and there is a day out there. Even if the Lord is powerful, he is likely to meet more powerful people. "


    Jia Xu said: "even if Dianwei wins, it''s nothing."


    Gan Ning widened his eyes and said in a broken voice: "that''s nothing? Today, we rely on Cao Anmin to take advantage. Once we lose Cao Anmin, we can no longer contain Cao Cao. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and asked, "who said that Cao Anmin would be lost?"


    Ganning said: "the Lord and Cao Cao have made a gentleman''s agreement. If they fail, they must release Cao Anmin."


    "You are wrong!"


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "if you remember carefully, what you said just now is that you are willing to release Cao Anmin and let him go. With Cao Anmin''s current physical condition, can he leave on his own? He can''t leave, but the army is on the side. How dare Cao Cao capture Cao Anmin easily? "


    Hiss!


    Gan Ning took a cold breath and said, "Mr. Wen he, I''m afraid you''re worried too much? Since the Lord has promised Cao Cao, he will not break the agreement. "


    Jia Xu said: "so you Ganning is just an ordinary Duwei. In a short time, you have already been the prefect of Nanyang County and controlled the whole Nanyang County."


    "I really don''t understand," Ganning said


    Jia Xu said: "believe it or not, once Dian Wei fails, Cao Cao will also default. It''s impossible for him to hand over his confidant Guo Jia. "


    Gan Ning said: "is Cao Cao going to violate the gentleman''s agreement? In that case, what''s the point of gambling? "


    Jia Xu said, "well, you don''t understand."


    When talking to Gan Ning, Jia Xu is quick to play the lute before the ox. he really can''t make it clear.


    Jia Xu''s eyes turned, and suddenly a smile came from the corner of his mouth, saying, "why don''t we make a bet?"


    Gan Ning said: "what gambling?"


    Jia Xu immediately said the content of gambling. Gan Ning was shocked and said, "Sir, Cao Cao is not so insidious."


    Jia Xu said: "it''s only ten thousand if you bet or not. For captain gandu, it''s just a drop in the bucket. "


    "Bet!"


    Gan Ning gritted his teeth and said, "I''d like to see if what you said can be realized."


    Jia Xu said: "let''s wait and see. It seems that I can have more dinner tonight. With ten thousand dollars, good wine and good meat, Captain gandu, you are sure to lose. "Gan Ning said, "if Cao Cao really does what you say, even if I lose, I will be convinced."


    "We''ll see."


    Jia Xu stroked the beard under his jaw, and his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    He has great confidence in Zhang Xiu.


    Although he didn''t get along with Zhang Xiu for a long time, he knew that today''s Zhang Xiu was a man who didn''t get up early and could never suffer losses, and could not let Cao Cao take advantage of him.


    Both sides, we''re in place.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Dian Wei and asked, "Dian Wei, I''ll let you come first. You shoot three arrows in a row to see if you can hit the stake! "


    "Good!"


    Dianway answered directly.


    Although Dianwei is good at the iron halberd, his archery is also very exquisite. Especially when others fight on weekdays, they will carry some halberds with them so that they can throw them to kill the enemy.


    The distance of 80 steps is not a problem for him.


    Dian Wei held his bow in his hand, with a solemn look on his face. Looking at the sober Cao Anmin, he said in a loud voice: "Cao Anmin, you can rest assured. As soon as you close and open your eyes, it''s over. "


    Cao Anmin was embarrassed at the moment.


    Open and close!


    Close and open!


    It''s not that easy.


    He is now an arrow target, his body tied to a stake. Especially in the case of physical injury, it was very difficult for him to move his fingers. He relied on the wooden pile to lean on his back, otherwise he could not stand at all.


    He has no strength at all.


    Now he became a target, even more dangerous. He wanted to die in his heart. If you die on the battlefield, you won''t be reduced to fish on the chopping board.


    Cao Anmin took a deep breath, exerting all his strength, and said in a loud voice, "Dian Wei, though you shoot. If not, shoot me. Kill me. Don''t embarrass the Lord. "


    Dianwei said, "I will win!"


    In Dianwei''s eyes, his attainments in martial arts are sure to win when he meets anyone and will not lose to anyone.


    Not far away Cao Cao saw this scene and heard Cao Anmin''s words, but his heart was also very sad.


    Cao Anmin is a good boy.


    Up to now, I don''t want him to be embarrassed.


    Such a child can''t die.


    At the moment, Cao Cao can only place all his hopes on Dianwei, hoping that Dianwei can win with three arrows. Cao Cao''s heart, also think that Dian Wei win, Zhang Xiu may buckle people.


    But in that case, Zhang Xiu lost her faith. Cao Cao can make an article in his faith, denounce Zhang Xiu wantonly, and even order a strong attack.


    Because Zhang Xiu did not release Cao Anmin.


    The responsibility lies with Zhang Xiu.


    No matter what Cao Cao did, Zhang Xiu would not let anyone go. Cao Cao had no choice but to do his best. Under such circumstances, Cao Cao''s strong attack occupied a moral position.


    In Cao Cao''s eyes, he was full of expectations.


    He''s waiting for dianway to win.


    Dian Wei stood firm. He raised his bow and aimed the arrow at Cao Anmin''s three inches above his head.


    "Yes


    Diway gave a low drink.


    "Hum!"


    The bow string vibrated, the bow and arrow came out of the string, leaving a shadow in the air, and then went straight to Cao Anmin 80 steps away.


    "Bang!"


    The next moment, the dull sound came out.


    The sharp arrow pierced the stake two inches above Cao Anmin''s head. Arrow sharp without match, directly broke the stake, all into it. Because when this bow and arrow hit the stake, the force was so strong that the arrow did not enter, and the shaft still kept shaking.


    "Good!"


    Seeing this, Cao Cao couldn''t help but make friends loudly.


    On Cao Jun''s side, the momentum is inspiring.


    Zhang Xiu looks in the eye, but is not anxious not impatient, does not have any flurries. It''s not a normal thing to shoot at 80 pawns.


    This is just the beginning.


    Good play, still behind.

 Chapter 159

    Cao Cao did not think of a way for the time being, and would not admit what Zhang Xiu said. He said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you think too much. What I have said is just to warn you that you should never do anything you regret for a lifetime. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "hypocrisy!"


    Cao Cao''s face remained unchanged.


    He didn''t care about Zhang Xiu''s accusations at all.


    He has already passed through the age of easy anger, don''t think by Zhang Xiu ridicule a, can have what influence. If Zhang Xiu can be ridiculed, even if he is ridiculed a hundred times a thousand times by Zhang Xiu, he is willing.


    Cao Cao''s idea, which was exposed by Zhang Xiu, was temporarily put aside.


    All of a sudden, Cao Cao had an idea.


    He thought of a way that might be of some use.


    Cao Cao with a smile, light way: "Zhang Xiu, between you and me has been nonsense, there is no meaning. Why don''t we make a bet? "


    Zhang Xiu is clear about Cao Cao''s intention.


    It''s to save Cao Anmin.


    All intentions and plans are based on this principle.


    Zhang Xiu was not worried. He had plenty of time and said, "how is Cao Gong going to bet?"


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s inquiry, Cao Cao also raised a touch of hope in his heart and said: "my official''s bet is very simple. You and I have three generals to fight each other and win two battles. If you win, I, Cao Cao, will withdraw from Luyang county without saying a word. If I win, you will release Cao Anmin. How about that? "


    "Not so much!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a sneer.


    Cao Cao''s calculation is just as he wishes. Such a bet is beneficial to Cao Cao but not harmful. But for Zhang Xiu, it is quite unfair.


    There is too much difference between the two sides.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu didn''t give a clear answer, Cao Cao said again, "Zhang Xiu, what do you think?"


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Cao Cao urged the general to say, "is Zhang Xiu also afraid of the first World War


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Gong, even if you are a strong general, it''s useless. Your bet is that I don''t know people in your army, so I want to take advantage of them. "


    "Under the command of Cao Cao, Dian Wei is brave. Even I am not his opponent. In addition, there was Xu Chu, who was similar to Dian Wei, and also Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan and other tiger generals. "


    "You are sitting in Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Yuzhou, while I am just a county."


    "And just established in Nanyang County."


    "In such a premise, both sides will fight, you are not clearly bullying me Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were wise and continued: "Mr. Cao, you have thick skin and black heart. It''s really bad. I can''t agree to your offer. "


    In Cao Cao''s eyes, there was a dignified touch.


    From Zhang Xiu''s words, we know that Zhang Xiu is quite familiar with his understanding.


    Otherwise, he would not be able to count his subordinates like a treasure.


    But he didn''t know much about Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao was not willing to give up at will, and continued: "Zhang Xiu, if you don''t want to fight, then you don''t want to. Why do you have to find such and such reasons? In my opinion, you just don''t dare to fight. "


    Zhang xiumou light turns, continues: "want to bet, impossible to come according to your condition. I have an idea. Let''s change the bet. Can Cao Gong have a try? "


    Cao Cao said: "how to bet?"


    For Cao Cao, he doesn''t care how to gamble, what he cares about is whether he can have the chance to save Cao Anmin.


    There was no way, so Cao Cao attacked.


    He will not be reckless.


    But now, as long as there is still a chance, he will not give up Cao Anmin and try to save him. Even if it''s not for Cao Anmin, it''s for his son Cao ang.


    He didn''t want Cao Anmin''s affair to be Cao Ang''s lifelong regret.


    In his life, Cao Cao encountered too many things and had too many regrets.


    He didn''t want his son to do the same.


    Zhang xiupai pointed to Cao Anmin and said, "do you see Cao Anmin? He''s tied to a stake that''s the size of a man''s arm. It''s a good target. "


    "We aim at the three inch stake on Cao Anmin''s head."


    "You and I will send a shooter to shoot at Cao Anmin''s head. Everyone should take the three arrows as the criterion. Whoever hits more bows and arrows will decide who wins. "


    Zhang Xiu made his bet.


    Such a bet, Zhang Xiu has enough confidence.


    His archery, can easily step through the Yang, can accurately hit Cao Anmin''s top of the pile.


    Cao Cao''s cheek twitched slightly.


    Zhang Xiu proposed this gambling contract, but it is very particular, and quite spicy. People on both sides take the stake on Cao Anmin''s head as their target. It''s only three inches away. Once the shot deviates or goes down, it''s very likely to hit Cao Anmin.With Cao Anmin here, people on Cao Cao''s side, no matter who goes up, are under great pressure.


    Zhang Xiu is forcing Cao Cao.


    Seeing that Cao Cao hesitated and did not answer, Zhang Xiu once again urged the general: "Cao Gong, this is your only chance to save Cao Anmin. Do you dare to gamble? If you don''t dare to gamble, withdraw and go back. "


    Cao Cao said, "what about the conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "the conditions are very simple. I''ll give you what you want. As long as your people win, I will release Cao Anmin and let him leave the barracks. If I win, I am willing to release Cao Anmin. But the premise is to hand over Guo Jia and exchange Guo Jia for Cao Anmin. "


    "Hiss!"


    Cao Cao took a cool breath.


    He thinks Zhang Xiu is really hard to deal with, and his idea is extremely poisonous.


    At every step, he was embarrassed.


    Let him not advance and retreat.


    Zhang Xiuxian threatened Cao Anmin with his life. Now, she wants to exchange Guo Jia. You know, Guo Jia is Cao Cao''s military adviser. What would Guo Jia think if he gambled with Guo Jia?


    This is Cao Cao''s dilemma.


    Cao Cao understood that Zhang Xiu was constantly responding to him, and the experts wanted to make him difficult.


    Suddenly, Cao Cao had a plan.


    Cao Cao nodded to Guo Jia, who was on the other side, and indicated that Guo Jia was at ease with his eyes.


    He didn''t reveal Guo Jia''s identity. He said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, I have agreed to your terms. But in case the archers of both sides hit with three arrows, how can they solve it? "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "this is very simple. If both sides hit with three arrows, they will open the distance and compete again. Let''s start with an initial distance of 80 steps. "


    "If you can''t decide the outcome in 80 steps, move to 100 steps."


    "If you can''t decide the outcome in 100 steps, move to 110. For the archer, such an arrangement will definitely tell the difference. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Cao, this is a big gamble. You have to think about it clearly. When the distance is close, Cao Anmin is safe. But if it''s too far away, there''s no guarantee. "


    Without hesitation, Cao Cao said, "I have considered your bet very clearly. I should make it."


    Zhang xiudao: "Cao gongshuang, hurry up!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "on my side, Zhang Xiu will fight in person. Mr. Cao, who do you choose? "


    Cao Cao''s eyes swept the people around him.


    His men, such as Xia Houyuan, Xia Houdun, Le Jin, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, are all good archers. They can fight Zhang Xiu, but they have to win.


    Once you lose, it''s embarrassing.


    Cao Cao''s eyes fell on Xia Houyuan''s body and said in a deep voice: "wonderful talent, your archery is good. How about you come out?"


    "No way!"


    Xia Houyuan shook his head and said: "Lord, it''s about the safety of Anmin. Once I miss, it may lead to the loss of Anmin''s life. I''m under too much pressure to play


    In fact, this is Zhang Xiu''s dilemma.


    Whether XiaHouYuan or XiahouDun, or even some other people in the army, they were all the elders of Cao Anmin.


    They shoot arrows. There''s pressure.


    On the one hand, they were afraid that Cao Anmin would be injured if the bow and arrow missed; on the other hand, if the accuracy of their bow and arrow was not enough and they lost to Zhang Xiu, Guo Jia would be in trouble.


    It''s too much pressure.


    Cao Cao frowned and finally fell on Dian Wei. He thought that Dian Wei''s archery was very good, so he said, "Dian Wei, it''s up to you to fight. I hope you can win


    Dian Wei Baoquan way: "please rest assured, humble duty from when go all out."


    He also wants to beat Zhang Xiu.


    Previously in Lianqiao and Zhang Xiu battle, failed to win Zhang Xiu, Dian Wei heart is very sorry. Now can in archery, and Zhang Xiu a war, Dian Wei heart full of high morale.


    Cao Cao nodded, but also put down his heart, and said directly: "Zhang Xiu, my side, by Dianwei."


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    It''s Dianwei again.


    He and Dian Wei still have to fight an unfinished battle. It''s really fate.

 Chapter 160

    At the moment, Cao Anmin''s forehead was dripping with sweat.


    As a target, I hate to be nervous.


    Fortunately, Dian Wei''s "Cao Gong, shine your eyes and watch."


    Zhang Xiu took the bow and arrow from the soldiers, aimed at it and tried, with a serious look in her eyes.


    Starting to do business, Zhang Xiu will not take it lightly, but will go all out.


    It''s his habit.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrow aimed at Cao Anmin''s direction without any hesitation or worry. As soon as she loosened her hand, the bow and arrow on the bowstring came out of the bowstring.


    At this moment, countless people stare at Cao Anmin''s direction.


    "Chaka!"


    Suddenly, a crisp sound came from Cao Anmin''s head.


    The next moment, we see that Dian Wei hit the shaft on the stake and was hit by Zhang Xiu''s bow and arrow. The whole bow was punctured from the end of the shaft, and then continued to break.


    "Bang!"


    The bow and arrow shot by Zhang Xiu pierced the shaft of the arrow, hit the stake and inserted it steadily.


    "Good!"


    Ganning saw this in the camp and cried out.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrow is too inspiring. Instead of hitting the stake with a new arrow, the arrow pierced the shaft of Dianwei''s arrow and hit the stake again. It''s quite difficult. It''s not easy.


    But Zhang Xiu is finished.


    The look on Dianwei''s face became dignified.


    Zhang Xiu''s fancy performance shooting, he can also complete, but he did not have Zhang Xiu''s fancy guts, is a solid three arrows hit the stake, but Zhang Xiu''s practice, is caused a greater sensation.


    On Cao Cao''s side, all the generals looked solemn.


    A heart in the air.


    Originally, they were inspired and saw hope. But Zhang Xiu''s first bow and arrow broke their illusion. They no longer think that Zhang Xiu can''t shoot.


    Can a man who can break the shaft of an arrow not hit it?


    Everyone, silence.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the reaction of Cao Cao and others, looks at the cheers of her soldiers, and her mouth is filled with a faint smile. He twisted a bow and arrow, put it on the bow string, and aimed at the direction of Cao Anmin.


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu drank low, then released the hand holding the arrow.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow, like thunder, breaks through the air.


    In an instant, it had reached Cao Anmin''s head. Another click came out, and the second bow and arrow also hit the shaft that Dianwei had hit the stake before, and accurately penetrated the shaft and hit the stake.


    The shaft shakes and vibrates.


    All the Cao soldiers, at this moment, have been awed by Zhang Xiu''s strength.


    Zhang Xiu is really too strong.


    This kind of archery can''t be done by human. It makes people dizzy.


    Cao Cao also completely silent down, no longer speak, quietly watching. All the soldiers under Cao Cao''s command are like this, watching silently. At the moment in the air, as if there is a repressive atmosphere, is constantly diffuse.


    Everybody, hold your breath.


    Instead, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command cheered loudly with high morale.


    They cheered for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was calm, with no pride. He did not delay any longer, nor did he go to see Cao Cao''s reaction. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he took a bow and arrow, put it on the bowstring, aimed it and shot it out.


    The third bow and arrow hit.


    As before, he still broke the arrow shaft that Dianwei hit and hit again.


    All three arrows hit without exception.


    And the archery is amazing.


    Zhang Xiu''s archery with the power of one person awed Cao Jun.


    As soon as his eyes turned, he fell on Cao Cao and said with a smile, "Duke Cao, what do you think is the result of this round of competition?"


    Cao Cao said: "naturally, it''s a draw!"


    For Cao Cao, although Zhang Xiu''s fancy archery is more gorgeous and more attractive, he will not think that Zhang Xiu is superior, because according to Zhang Xiu, as long as he hits three inches above Cao Anmin''s head, that is to achieve the preset goal.


    Dianway did it, too.


    Zhang Xiu was not much entangled, and said frankly: "since Cao Gong thinks it''s a draw, then this one is naturally a draw. Next, we move to a hundred steps away. In a hundred steps away, try again. "


    "Good!"


    Cao Cao nodded.


    Dian Wei at this moment, his face with a strong sense of war. He just suffered the loss of honesty. Next, he will not suffer any more. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "prefect Zhang, this game is up to you first, you shoot first."


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answered without hesitation.


    At a distance of 100 paces, Zhang Xiu asked people to take down the six previous bows and arrows, and then took them to shoot.Zhang Xiu''s first bow and arrow hit the stake smoothly.


    It''s within three inches.


    With Zhang Xiu''s archery, this is a normal performance, and no one thinks that there is something wrong.


    But Zhang Xiu''s second arrow, however, took the first bow and arrow as the foothold. When the tip of the arrow arrived, with a click, it pierced the shaft of the first bow and hit the stake.


    After the third bow and arrow was fired, it continued along the second bow and arrow, broke the shaft of the second bow and hit the stake again.


    Three arrows, different styles.


    Pawey''s cheek twitched, but he thought too simply.


    Just now his inner thought was to imitate Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu''s three bows and arrows hit the stake in turn, he would follow Zhang Xiu''s example and humiliate her according to her previous methods.


    I didn''t expect that all my plans failed.

 Chapter 161

    "The grand guard is powerful!"


    Ganning saw Zhang Xiu''s three arrows in the middle, and his rough cheek was full of excitement. His face was flushed by the pride that had been swirling in his chest.


    "Mighty


    Ganning cried out again.


    As soon as he raised his hand, he motioned to the soldiers under his command and asked them to shout together.


    "Mighty


    "Mighty


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cry, constantly echoing in the air. The mighty voice reverberates between the heaven and the earth, and has a strong fighting spirit and fierce fighting spirit.


    Zhang Xiu''s three arrows stimulated the morale of all the soldiers and mobilized their fighting spirit. It''s a good thing for Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, but it''s not good news for Cao Jun.


    In particular, the more powerful Zhang Xiu was, the more lost Cao''s soldiers felt.


    Cao Cao''s narrow eyes also narrowed.


    He studied Zhang Xiu carefully.


    In front of the people, let his heart, suddenly gave birth to a thick fear. Because all the rhythm at the moment seems to be in Zhang Xiu''s grasp.


    From the beginning, Cao Cao led his troops into Nanyang County, where Cao ang was killed as a pioneer, while Zhang Xiu sent someone to attack the pioneer, captured Cao Anmin, and destroyed his 3000 elite.


    When Cao Cao''s army crossed the river, Zhang Xiu sent someone to break the dike, flooded Cao Cao''s army, and blocked the South Bank of Lianqiao.


    Up to now, Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei have won the upper hand again.


    Everything is under Zhang Xiu''s control.


    This is what Cao Cao is most afraid of. He turned his eyes and fell on Dianwei. He could only hope that Dianwei could shoot steadily, and then win this bet.


    Cao Cao worried that Dian Wei would be affected and reminded: "Dian Wei, we just need to hit the target, there is no need to show off our skills. If you shoot down-to-earth, three arrows will be enough. The distance is getting farther and farther. I don''t believe that some people can show off their archery again. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "is Cao Gong worried about Dian Wei?"


    Cao Cao said, "I have confidence in Dian Wei."


    Zhang Xiu said: "since Cao Gong has confidence in Dian Wei, why remind him not to be influenced by me? Cao Gong, you don''t forgive others in your mouth, but you are very real in your actions. I understand your worry, and you can rest assured, because I also believe that Dian Wei will succeed at such a small distance. "


    Cao Cao was embarrassed to hear that.


    Zhang Xiu also believes that Dian Wei can hit?


    Go to hell!


    Cao Cao doesn''t believe Zhang Xiu''s words. In his opinion, Zhang Xiu is so smooth. Although Zhang Xiu is only in her early twenties, she feels like an old fox who has gone through many vicissitudes, not a kid of the younger generation.


    This man is hard to deal with.


    Pawey took a deep breath, narrowed his eyes, and began to empty his mind to relieve the pressure.


    After half a sound, he calmed down.


    At this moment, everything around him disappeared, the figure disappeared, the voice disappeared, leaving only Cao Anmin and the stake in front of him.


    He''s back in shape.


    Dian Wei listened to Cao Cao and didn''t care how Zhang Xiu arched. What he wants to do is to follow his own ideas, as long as three bows and arrows hit one after another, that''s OK.


    Dianwei twisted his bow and shot.


    At the moment when the first bow and arrow was shot, he did not have any waiting at all. He twisted the second bow and arrow again like flowing water.


    "Whew!"


    The second bow and arrow shot out immediately.


    Two bows and arrows, one in front of the other.


    After the second bow and arrow shot, Dianwei shot again and shot the third bow and arrow like lightning.


    Three bows and arrows were shot back and forth, and when the third was shot, the first did not hit the stake. This kind of continuous three bows and arrows, which is equivalent to continuous arrow, is fast and powerful.


    It''s very difficult. It''s not easy to control the collimator.


    It happened that dianway shot it.


    "Yes


    The first bow and arrow hit the stake.


    "Yes! Yes


    Then, two dull sounds came out, and the second and third arrows hit the stake one after another. Without exception, the three bows and arrows were all within three inches of Cao Anmin''s head and did not exceed the limit.


    As the soldiers announced that three bows and arrows had hit him, Cao Cao clenched his fist and yelled "good" three times. Just now Zhang Xiu hit three arrows in a row, and Cao Cao was under great pressure.


    In this war, only victory is allowed, not defeat.


    We must defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Dian Wei''s three arrows made Cao Cao feel relieved.


    Cao Cao''s soldiers roared. One by one, the soldiers clenched their fists, roared and yelled for Dianwei.


    Just now, when Zhang Xiu hit the stake, it seemed that there were dark clouds gathering over the heads of Cao''s soldiers, as if it was the end.


    It''s depressing.Now it''s time to keep the clouds open and see the moon, and finally it''s time to win.


    Dian Wei''s three arrows in a row are also of high standard. Ordinary people can shoot, but without thinking, they shoot three arrows in a row, one in front of the other, which makes it extremely difficult to control the target.


    Diane can shoot. It''s not easy.


    Cao Cao''s soldiers cheered, while Zhang Xiu''s soldiers held their breath secretly. Each soldier held his head high, thinking that next time Zhang Xiu arched, he would surpass Dian Wei.


    The soldiers of both sides have been brought in to worry and cheer for their own side.


    But Cao Anmin, who was tied to the stake, felt very tired.


    It''s exciting!


    What a thrill!


    It''s a hundred steps away. If you take another ten steps, it will be 110. For an archer, there is a big difference between 100 and 110 steps.


    Next, he has to bear more pressure.


    Cao Anmin wanted to die. Maybe if I die, I won''t bear so much pressure. In fact, death is not terrible, because it''s just a time for eyes to open and close. The most terrible thing is that we are always on the edge of death and can''t die.


    The threat has always been shrouded in the top of the head, always unable to disperse, the pressure in the heart, is really enormous.


    Cao Anmin is just like that.


    At any time, he could be killed by the bow and arrow.


    It''s not a good feeling.


    But he had no choice but to continue to endure.


    Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei retreated 110 steps away. It is quite difficult to aim at the three inch stake on Cao Anmin''s head from this distance, and then hit it.


    If the distance of 100 steps can be easily achieved by the marksman, then the distance of 110 steps will become a watershed. To hit accurately or even continuously, we need certain talents.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, said: "Dianwei, this game is still you come first?"


    "Good!"


    Dianwei answered directly.


    He has adjusted his mind to do what he is best at according to his own rhythm.


    Dianwei''s Lianzhu arrow is practiced since childhood, so the accuracy is very high. Under such a condition, he prepared his bow and arrow and bent his bow again.


    He still shot three arrows in a row.


    Almost all of the three arrows hit the stake one after the other.


    Still three arrows in a row.


    Although the three bows and arrows are in different positions within three inches of Cao Anmin''s head, they can still keep three arrows in a row within 110 steps, and they shoot without thinking, which requires a fairly high level.


    That''s what pawey can do.


    On Cao Jun''s side, they were all cheering.


    Standing beside Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan happily said, "the Lord chose the right person to choose Dian Wei. The distance of 110 steps, if I come here, I''m afraid the accuracy is not high. Especially with Anmin, it is impossible to hit the target. "


    Yue Jin also said: "Dian Wei''s archery is really powerful. Whether we can win or not depends on this game. Maybe this time, we can tell. I don''t know if Zhang Xiu will default. "


    Cao Cao listened and looked at Zhang Xiu.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu is still at ease, and doesn''t seem to feel any pressure.


    Cao Cao consciously gained the upper hand and was very happy. He joked: "Zhang Xiu, the distance is now 110 steps. How are you going to show off this time? As a past person, I would like to remind you that dazzle technique is a combination of different fields. It''s better to be honest and down-to-earth in archery at a distance of 110 steps. "


    "Who''s coming?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a light sneer: "what is Cao Gong? You have short stature, short hands, short legs and a round appearance. You are not the material for martial arts


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu, this is a personal attack.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "even when you were young, I''m afraid you didn''t even touch the iron tire bow. What kind of person? In archery, although I am younger than you, I am also your elder. Remind me that you''ve got the wrong person


    Cao Cao''s cheek twitched slightly and hummed: "it''s meaningless to show off your tongue. I''ll see how you can shoot. You have to remember that Dianwei is a wooden stake that hit with three arrows in a row. "


    Cao Cao doesn''t care about Zhang Xiu''s sarcasm.


    The reason why he did this was to put pressure on Zhang Xiu.


    When the distance reaches 110 steps, if there is a slight deviation, it will not be able to hit the stake. As long as Zhang Xiu lost, but did not carry out the agreement, Cao Cao had the reason to attack, and occupied enough forerunner.


    This is Cao Cao''s intention.


    As for face, Cao Cao has always been indifferent, as long as he can achieve the goal.


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    Cao Cao is also too self righteous, but Cao Cao takes the initiative, put his face in front of him, let Zhang Xiu beat friction, Zhang Xiu will not ignore, when the face, you have to beat face. The other side of the press on the ground friction, then hard force.

 Chapter 162

    Gan Ning was in the military camp. He looked at Jia Xu and solemnly said, "Mr. Jia, Dian Wei is too powerful. I''m not bad at archery, but it''s 110 paces away. I''m not as good as him


    "I don''t know much about my Lord''s archery."


    "But that''s too much to worry about."


    Gan Ning looked at Jia Xu and asked, "are you sure Dian Wei will lose if you have such confidence in your Lord?"


    Jia Xu looked calm and said, "xingba, have more confidence in the prefect. You and I can''t guess the ability of Taishou. What''s more, you can''t understand the mind of the prefect. Just trust him. "


    Jia Xu believed in Zhang Xiu.


    He did not believe in Zhang Xiu''s ability, but in her wisdom. Zhang Xiu, whom he came into contact with, has always been planning before moving, and it is impossible to do things that are not sure.


    This is Jia Xu''s confidence.


    He believes in Zhang Xiu.


    Gan Ning nodded, still worried.


    It''s too tight.


    In Gan Ning''s heart, he still thinks that it''s unnecessary and uneconomic for Zhang Xiu to bet with Cao Cao. Even if Zhang Xiu wins, according to speculation, I''m afraid Cao Cao will cheat, and losing is even more troublesome.


    All in all, it''s no good.


    There are many people who are as worried as Ganning.


    The soldiers in the army are looking at Zhang Xiu, with expectation in their eyes and a little worry.


    What if you lose?


    After all, Dian Wei''s strength is not weak.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t know what his subordinates think. Even if he knows, he won''t explain anything. He stood outside the barracks, a wave, a soldier handed a bow and arrow.


    Zhang Xiu inserts three bows and arrows into the quiver in turn, and then hangs the quiver on her back.


    It''s easy to get the arrow.


    When Dianwei saw this, his mouth was full of sarcasm. He thinks that Zhang Xiu''s actions are purely mystifying. In the past, Zhang Xiu didn''t insert the arrow in the quiver, but now she only inserts the bow and arrow in the quiver and hangs it on her back. It''s a complete bluff.


    But Zhang Xiu has entered the role.


    He didn''t hear anything outside the window, only the existence of the stake in his eyes, and even Cao Anmin had ignored it.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s strongest state.


    He immersed in it, slightly adjusted the state, then quickly took out a bow and arrow from the quiver and put it on the bowstring. At this moment, after aiming at Zhang Xiu, she would not move and let go like lightning.


    "Hum!"


    The bowstring vibrates and the arrow shoots.


    At the moment when the first arrow was shot, Zhang Xiu raised her hand again, flashed over the quiver like lightning, and took out the second bow. The shaft is on the bowstring and shoots again.


    There was almost no stagnation in the shooting time of the two bows and arrows, one before the other.


    This is also a continuous arrow.


    The bow and arrow went straight to the stake.


    After the second bow and arrow, Zhang Xiu shot the third bow and arrow again.


    The three arrows are like Dianwei''s, they are all continuous arrows.


    And Zhang Xiu shot faster, three bows and arrows just shot in the blink of an eye. If you slow down the speed of the bow and arrow flying in the air, you can clearly see that the distance difference between the front and back of the three bows is almost the same, and the path is the same, without any difference.


    "Bang!"


    The first bow and arrow hit the stake.


    The bow and arrow hit two inches above Cao Anmin''s head. It sank vigorously. The arrow had penetrated into the stake. The stake is thick enough, otherwise it will be pierced by the constant shooting of Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu.


    Just then, a click came out.


    The second arrow hits the shaft at the end of the first arrow, breaks the shaft and goes on, then hits the stake. The third, drawing on the gourd''s brush, broke through the shaft again and hit the stake.


    Three bows and arrows hit the stake in a row.


    This kind of archery is so marvelous that its skill is close to Tao.


    "Good!"


    Gan Ning and all the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command see this and try their best to roar and vent their depression. It was the shooting of Dianwei that made everyone nervous.


    Zhang Xiu''s archery gave Cao Jun a loud slap in the face and returned it directly.


    He slapped Cao Cao even harder.


    Just now, Cao Cao was worried about Zhang Xiu, worried that Zhang Xiu would not be able to shoot. But in a flash, Zhang Xiu not only hit the stake, but also broke the shaft of the arrow in the way of Dian Wei''s continuous arrow.


    This kind of skill is really powerful.


    "Hiss!"


    Guo Jia took a cool breath, and her eyes became dignified.


    Zhang Xiu''s archery is too strong.


    At this moment, even if Guo Jia was a member of Cao Cao, she could not help worrying about Dian Wei, and even less optimistic about him.


    This is especially true of Cao''s soldiers.


    Before they cheered, they jumped, they celebrated for dianway. But in the twinkling of an eye, just as I had just experienced the warmth of spring, I immediately entered the hot summer of dog days.Abrupt changes, as well as a strong pressure, make the heart depressed.


    The scene, once silent.


    Cao Cao was the first to recover. Although Zhang Xiu won, he was disappointed. However, Cao Cao did not show any discomfort and continued: "the archery of Zhang Taishou is really powerful. But anyway, it''s just a draw. It''s useless to watch the result in archery competition


    He has always been an old fox.


    Even if Zhang Xiu has gained an advantage, he doesn''t feel ashamed. As long as in the end, dianway can win, that''s enough.


    Cao Cao doesn''t care about the rest.


    Zhang Xiu gently smile, said: "Cao Gong, you are not disappointed? In archery just now, as long as I make a little mistake, you will win. Pity, pity Alas, such a contest is not easy. How about the next time I compete, the arrow will deflect a little, and Cao Anmin will be solved by the way. What do you think? "


    Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu, you don''t need to keep your hand. Dian Wei''s archery is powerful, and he will win. "


    Zhang xiudao: "wait and see."


    "Here, ten more steps back!"


    Zhang Xiu said, first step back ten steps distance, and Cao Anmin opened 120 steps distance.


    Pawey retreated.


    At this moment, Cao Anmin''s heart is hanging in the air. The farther away he was, the more uncertain and worried he was. Fortunately, he was tied to the stake and could not move or struggle.


    So he accepted his fate and let Zhang Xiu toss.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Dianwei, who will come first? Why don''t you come first? "


    "No, you go first."


    Dian Wei shook his head and asked Zhang Xiu to do it first.


    He has made up his mind and doesn''t plan to go ahead, because 120 steps is quite difficult. In this distance, it is quite difficult to hit the stake, especially the stake within three inches of Cao Anmin''s head.


    Let Zhang Xiu come.


    First archery, there is a certain degree of difficulty, pressure is also big.


    Although Dian Wei doesn''t know the art of war, he can do such normal tricks.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart was like a mirror. She had an insight into Dianwei''s mind and said, "I didn''t expect that even a straightforward person like Dianwei would play some tricks. But it doesn''t matter. I''ll come first


    This time, Zhang Xiu did not carry the arrow bag again, because she was not allowed to reserve the Lianzhu arrow.


    The distance of 120 steps, even if it is him, can not be taken lightly. If Zhang Xiu can hit the target accurately within 110 steps, then the accuracy of 120 steps begins to decline, and she must aim before shooting.


    After all, the distance is further.


    Zhang Xiu twists a bow and arrow, then pulls the bow to take the arrow.


    "Hum!"


    The bow string vibrated, and the sharp bow and arrow came out of the string and crossed an arc in the air. With a bang, it hit the stake within three inches of Cao Anmin''s head.


    "Hoo


    Zhang Xiu was relieved.


    The hit of the first bow and arrow strengthened Zhang Xiu''s confidence. He was more and more steadfast in his heart, twisting a bow and arrow again. According to Zhang Xiu''s idea, he wants to break from the shaft of the first arrow and hit the stake in the same way as before.


    He did the same thing.


    After aiming, the bow and arrow will be shot as soon as you let go.


    "Yes


    The arrow stabbed the stake.


    Although the arrow was within three inches of Cao Anmin''s head, it slightly deviated from its position and failed to hit the shaft.


    Fortunately, still hit.


    When the two bows and arrows hit, the hearts of all Cao''s soldiers rose. One by one, they all hope that Zhang Xiu''s third bow and arrow will not hit the stake.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s victory.


    Both sides have their own needs.


    Both sides are holding their breath.


    "Whew!"


    Zhang Xiu continued to shoot, and the third bow and arrow broke through the air and shot with a sharp howl. I saw the arrow like a meteor, a cold light flashed, the next moment, the arrow hit the shaft of the first arrow.


    With a click, the arrow pierced the shaft and penetrated into the stake.


    Three bows and arrows, all hit.


    After the announcement of the soldiers, Zhang Xiu''s momentum was like a rainbow, and the soldiers were shouting loudly, which shocked the sky and made the momentum like a rainbow.


    Cao Jun, however, was in a low mood.


    All the people looked at Dianwei with deep worry in their eyes. Because at 120 steps, even though they believed in the archery of Timothy, it was not easy. If you just hit the stake, it''s no problem, but you should hit Cao Anmin three inches above the head.


    There are a lot of difficulties.

 Chapter 163

    Cao Cao sighed in his heart. Zhang Xiu was really lucky. He not only hit all three arrows, but also hit the previous shaft with one.


    If Dian Wei takes the first shot and three arrows hit, it will cause great pressure on Zhang Xiu. But now the situation is that Zhang Xiu takes the lead, he takes the lead, and all hits, which causes great pressure to Dian Wei.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, suppressed his confused thoughts, and said, "Dian Wei, just keep an ordinary mind. Let it go. Don''t worry. "


    "Yes


    Dianwei nodded solemnly.


    At the moment, Dianwei''s face was also very solemn.


    One hundred and twenty steps, it''s hard!


    But he never flinched.


    Dianwei picked up the bow, twisted a bow and arrow, and quickly put it on the bowstring. The sharp arrow aimed at the stake 120 steps away, and his face became dignified gradually.


    After he took aim, he suddenly noticed the wind around him.


    Now, it''s cold in spring.


    It''s perfectly normal for a cold wind to blow in.


    You can shoot at a distance of 120 steps. A little wind and grass will affect the accuracy of the bow and arrow. In such an environment, he hesitated and did not let go immediately.


    Zhang Xiu is also a master of archery. He noticed Dian Wei''s hesitating action, and a smile came up from the corner of his mouth.


    Dian Wei hesitated!


    Once a Archer hesitates, he doubts his archery. As long as there is a little hesitation, the accuracy of the next bow and arrow shooting will be greatly reduced.


    Zhang Xiu quietly waiting, he has enough patience, waiting for Dianwei failure.


    After a long time, pawey concentrated again, and then let go of his arrow.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow broke through the air, leaving a shadow in the air. In a twinkling of an eye, it reached Cao Anmin''s head and stabbed into the stake.


    "Hoo


    Dianway was relieved.


    He thought it should have been shot, as long as it hit the stake, there would not be too much problem.


    "No, more than three inches."


    At this time, the soldier at 120 steps saw the position where the arrow hit and cried out. The soldier was under Zhang Xiu''s command. He was even more excited when he saw that the bow and arrow didn''t hit the target.


    Zhang Xiu was hit by three arrows, and Dian Wei failed as long as one arrow failed.


    "Alas..."


    When Cao Cao heard this, he sighed.


    It failed in the end.


    He did not say anything for the time being, but looked at Dianwei. At this time, Dian Wei was still in the same place, with a lonely look on his face. He can surpass Zhang Xiu in martial arts. But in archery, but lost to Zhang Xiu, not Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    "I''m defeated!"


    Dianway answered directly.


    He is not a schemer. If he is defeated, he will give up.


    Cao Anmin also sobered up, he saw Dianwei failure, in fact, not much loss, also in anticipation. Although Dianwei was defeated, at least the competition ended.


    He didn''t have to stand on the stake any more.


    "Dianwei, kill me!"


    Cao Anmin cried out.


    He had gathered all his strength, hoping that Dianwei could shoot him with a bow and arrow.


    He didn''t want to be a prisoner.


    He didn''t want to drag Cao Cao down.


    The look on Cao Anmin''s face was painful and ferocious. He roared out a word, as if all the strength of the whole body exhausted, the whole person incomparably uncomfortable.


    However, he did not give up, and continued to shout: "a contest is three bows and arrows. You just shot one arrow, and there are still two arrows left. You must finish it. "


    He hoped that Dian Wei would use the rules and kill him, so that Cao Cao would not be embarrassed.


    Dianway didn''t agree.


    After he admitted defeat to Zhang Xiu, he directly threw away his bow and quickly returned to the army. He came to Cao Cao''s side, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fist and pleaded guilty, saying, "if you are incompetent, please punish me."


    Cao Cao shook his head and comforted: "Dian Wei, it''s not your fault. You''ve tried your best. Do your best and listen to the destiny. All you have to do has been done. Don''t blame yourself, don''t feel guilty. "


    Dianwei knelt on the ground, head down, extremely remorse.


    The more Cao Cao comforted, the more guilty he felt.


    He failed to live up to Cao Cao''s trust, making Cao Cao''s plan to save Cao Anmin come to nothing. Even Cao Cao would become very troublesome because of his gambling with Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao turned over and got off his horse, went to Dian Wei and helped him up. He solemnly said, "you have tried your best. I believe you don''t have any burden."


    Dianwei stood by silently, clenching his fist.


    He is not reconciled!


    But there''s no way.


    Cao Cao nodded to Guo Jia, indicating that Guo Jia was at ease. As a matter of fact, he has made detailed arrangements for the previous bets and has a plan to deal with them.


    Even if you lose, it doesn''t matter.Zhang Xiu waved her hand and asked the soldiers to push Cao Anmin into the camp. Then, Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Cao Cao, saying: "Cao Gong, the gambling is over. Now it''s time to fulfill the agreement and hand over Guo Jia in exchange for Cao Anmin. "


    He wanted to see what Cao Cao would do.


    In fact, he knew the nature of Cao Cao. With Cao Cao''s thick face and black heart, it is certainly impossible to hand over Guo Jia. You know, Guo Jia is Cao Cao''s absolute confidant.


    To hand over Guo Jia is to break one''s own arm.


    Such a loss is far more serious than that of Cao Anmin. Not to mention one Cao Anmin, even if ten or 100 Cao Anmin are added together, they are not as good as Guo Jia.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Cao Cao said, "since I have made a bet with you, I will not go back. I will fulfill the terms of Zhang Tai Shou. "


    "Come on, take the Guo family out."


    Cao Cao ordered him to go down,


    when Xia Houyuan got the order, he immediately entered the camp and brought out an old man in his early 40s, who looked a little old, dirty, and his face was full of oil stains.


    His name is Guo Jia. He is from Cao Cao''s kitchen. He has the same surname as Guo Jia. His name is different, but his pronunciation is the same.


    He is a substitute prepared by Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao pointed to the Guo family and said, "this is the Guo family you want. Now, please release Cao Anmin and take the Guo family. The Guo family is a good cook, even though he is sloppy. He is responsible for directing tens of thousands of soldiers in our army to cook, and he has never made any mistakes. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered.


    It''s really Cao Cao''s style.


    Sure enough, I''m out of debt.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "what a Cao Cao, he used such a way to make Li Daitao stiff. You know that the Guo Jia I asked for is the Guo Jia beside you. He''s your military adviser, so it''s worth exchanging Cao Anmin. Can Cao Anmin be replaced by a person who has only a kitchen? "


    Cao Cao laughed and said, "Oh, where do I know? But now, this is already the case. Zhang Taishou, a seriously injured Cao Anmin, is of no use to you. It''s of great use to you to change the Guo family''s kitchen. "


    "Cao Cao, you are very good."


    Zhang Xiu saw Cao Cao''s playful face and knew that he was doing it on purpose.


    It''s a deliberate default.


    "Take my gun!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, then stretched out her hand and asked the soldiers to bring the golden spear. After he took the golden gun, he went to Cao Anmin with the gun in his hand and said in a loud voice, "since Cao Cao doesn''t pay attention to Cao Anmin, there''s nothing to say."


    Zhang Xiu made a great effort.


    The spear was like a stick, so it swept out and smashed down Cao Anmin''s thigh.


    "Pa!"


    The big gun made of fine steel struck Cao Anmin''s thigh hard. When he went down with a stick, he heard a crack, and the bone of Cao Anmin''s right leg broke.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Cao Anmin''s mouth.


    He yelled.


    There is endless pain in the voice.


    His body was full of scars, and he was dying. At this time, he suffered from Zhang Xiu''s stick, and the wound was even more painful. His cheek was full of endless pain.


    But Zhang Xiu does not stop, and her face is indifferent. She swings a long gun down again. The second shot fell on Cao Anmin''s left thigh.


    "Chaka!"


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Cao Anmin''s left thigh bone was also broken. The broken thigh, once again there is red blood flowing out, dyed red thigh clothes.


    At the moment, Cao Anmin can''t stand.


    Thanks to his whole body, he won''t curl up when he is hanged on the stake. But severe pain, wave after wave of attack, so that his body, are constantly shaking.


    Pain!


    It hurts!


    His life is not like death.


    Zhang Xiu broke Cao Anmin''s left and right thigh bones, looked at Cao Cao not far away and said coldly, "Cao Cao, in front of me, you are not a superior Sikong, just my enemy, that''s all."


    "If you don''t keep your word and play tricks, you have to bear the corresponding consequences."


    "Looking at his nephew, his legs were broken, and it was because you Cao Cao played tricks and broke your legs. How do you feel?"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are sharp.


    In words, it is more aggressive.


    Cao Cao''s cheek twitched slightly.


    Some regret in his heart, and Zhang Xiu should not bet, did not expect Zhang Xiu''s reaction, will be so intense.


    He looked at Cao Anmin, who was tied to the stake, with a touch of pity on his face. But in a flash, the expression on Cao Cao''s face was replaced by perseverance, and there was no pity.


    It''s a battlefield. He has no choice.

 Chapter 164

    In the barracks, Gan Ning was stunned at the moment. His face was full of shock, because all Cao Cao''s actions were really expected by Jia Xu.


    Jia Xu had made a bet with him before, that Cao Cao would choose a fake Guo Jia to deal with the failure of Dian Wei.


    And I chose a person with the same name.


    I didn''t expect that.


    Gan Ning looked admiring and continued: "Sir, you are really good. It''s a magic trick. "


    "Xing Ba, I''m flattered."


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "don''t forget 10000 yuan. Of course, you can come to me with good wine and meat at night without paying. This time in Lushan, the mouth is a little light, not used to this day


    "Money must be given. Good wine and good meat are also available."


    Ganning answered directly.


    For him, seeing that Jia Xu''s judgment is so accurate, he has already admired Jia Xu.


    He was completely convinced.


    When Jia Xu saw Gan Ning''s expression, he also gave a cool smile. The reason why he bet with Gan Ning is that he wants to further integrate into Zhang Xiu''s army. Gan Ning is one of the chief generals in the army, and he is the most important one.


    Gan Ning is convinced of him, which is conducive to his foothold under the command of Zhang Xiu.


    This is the purpose of Jia Xu''s bet. Otherwise, he would be too lazy to speak for 10000 yuan. Under Zhang Xiu''s command, he wanted to eat, drink and drink. He had to ask for money.


    Jia Xu changed his words and continued: "xingba, you can prepare for the fight. Cao Cao failed to save Cao Anmin, and the Lord humiliated Cao Anmin. According to Cao Cao''s nature, he will certainly attack. "


    Gan Ning said: "Cao Cao does not care about Cao Anmin?"


    Jia Xu said with a light smile: "just one Cao Anmin can''t let Cao Cao withdraw his army. If the prisoner was Cao ang or Guo Jia, Cao Cao might withdraw. But for now, it''s absolutely impossible. "


    "I see!"


    When Gan Ning heard this, he immediately arranged to go on.


    The soldiers in the army are already in place.


    As long as Cao Cao attacks, the soldiers in the army can fight back quickly.


    Zhang Xiu is also clear about Cao Cao''s temperament. Cao Cao has a heart and a capacity, but Cao Cao is suspicious and cunning, and will not give up his established strategy just because he is Cao Anmin.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Gong, do you want to go to war? If it''s a war, Zhang Xiu will accompany us to the end. I''d like to see if your invincible Cao Jiajun can gallop in Nanyang County. "


    "As you wish!"


    Cao Cao gave a resounding answer.


    No longer hesitating, he ordered, "kill!"


    With Cao Cao''s order, Xia Houyuan conveyed the order, and Cao''s soldiers began to fight out.


    "Dong! Dong! Dong! "


    The sound of drums is like thunder, and the sound of war drums resounds through the sky.


    Another horn sounded.


    Cao''s soldiers'' morale gradually rose in the sound of battle drums and horns, and the subdued breath also turned into the power of fighting. They rushed forward quickly and rushed to Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    Zhang Xiu did not panic.


    Immediately, he ordered the soldiers to take Cao Anmin back to the barracks and send him directly to the mountain for doctors to treat him. Now Cao Cao has ignored Cao Anmin''s life and death. It''s useless to kill Cao Anmin, and it''s useless to let Cao Anmin maintain his injury.


    On the contrary, Cao Anmin was cured and left in the army. Even if Cao Anmin can not be used against Cao Cao, Cao Anmin and Cao Ang''s friendship can also be used to restrain Cao ang.


    Zhang Xiu''s quick dispatch, soldiers in the army move quickly.


    Gan Ning, as the chief general, saw Cao Jun coming and ordered, "Archer, let go!"


    The archers in the camp stopped hesitating and began to shoot out on a large scale. In fact, the archers were all in place before, and it didn''t take time to gather. Now the order is given. The bow and arrow, like a rain of arrows, will cross the air and then fall quickly.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows, falling fast.


    These bows and arrows were all indiscriminate attacks. As soon as they fell, they fell on Cao''s soldiers.


    Many soldiers were shot one after another.


    Rao was so, but he could not stop Cao''s soldiers. Dense Cao Jun, against the arrow rain, regardless of life and death, fast forward.


    The bows and arrows are shooting. They''re going on.


    At this time, the camp has a catapult quickly assembled, and then moved a piece of rock, loaded in the catapult, rumbling to the outside.


    Every big stone has an irregular shape.


    It weighs more than two or three hundred jin.


    Under such circumstances, when a stone weighing several hundred jin flew through the air and fell into the crowd, the soldiers they met were either dead or wounded. Cao Jun''s soldiers who were pressed under the stone had already been crushed into flesh and blood.


    "Bang! Bang


    Dull sound, constantly out.


    One stone after another fell, and the soldiers under Cao Cao''s command were constantly killed here.The situation of the dead and wounded soldiers is extremely tragic.


    They''re dead and wounded.


    Rao is so, also still can''t stop Cao Army soldiers attack.


    The boundless Cao soldiers, rushing forward, are fast approaching the camp. But just as these Cao soldiers approached the gate of the camp, there were long spearmen in Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    All of these long spearmen were wearing helmets and armor. They looked solemn one by one, and their faces were full of fighting spirit.


    Zhang Xiu''s archery shows her morale.


    The soldiers in the army are full of fighting spirit.


    Facing Cao Jun, they had no fear, and they had to prepare to defeat each other. When Cao Cao''s soldiers rushed up, the long spearmen shot out neatly.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    One by one, Cao''s soldiers were stabbed by long guns and fell to the ground screaming.


    Although Cao''s soldiers continued to kill like a tide in the follow-up, the long spear formation continued to stab out, and the uniform stabbing made ordinary soldiers unable to get close to each other, so they could not break the formation at all.


    This scene falls in Cao Cao''s eyes.


    Cao Cao''s eyes were sharp, and he ordered: "Dian Wei, Xia Houdun, Xu Chu!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Three tiger generals, together, all stand up.


    No matter Dian Wei, Xia Houdun or Xu Chu, they were all powerful generals under Cao Cao''s command. They had strong fighting power and were brave enough to fight in battle.


    Cao Cao pointed to the gate of Zhang Xiu''s camp and ordered: "you immediately join the war, take the soldiers to break Zhang Xiu''s line of defense, tear its formation and kill it."


    "Here it is


    Three people have to order, carrying weapons to quickly join the battlefield.


    The three men braved the rain of arrows and bypassed the range of the catapult attack. After a short time, they came to the gate of the barracks, reached the front of the military array, and killed the battlefield with weapons.


    "Kill


    The two iron halberds in Dianwei''s hand come forward quickly. He was defeated by Zhang Xiu before, holding a breath in his heart, incomparably uncomfortable. At the moment, he was carrying the iron halberd to kill him. Seeing the spear coming, he swung the iron halberd and smashed it down.


    "Dang! Dang! Dang


    The iron halberd cut off and made a sound of impact. Under the impact of the great force, the arms of the soldiers holding the gun were numb, and they could not hold the gun any more. Even in serious cases, the tiger mouth had been torn.


    Dianway is too strong.


    Its strength, just fierce no cast!


    He is powerful and overbearing!


    It''s totally unstoppable.


    After a successful attack, Dianwei collided forward and hit the soldiers, making a cut in the formation. As soon as Dian Wei got a foothold, he swung the iron halberd again and cut it out.


    Where the halberd blade passed, it cut on the soldier''s skin, and there was a yelping sound. The soldiers in front of Dianwei were killed directly. Pawey did not stop, but continued to rush inside.


    No one can stop them.


    Similar to Dian Wei, Xia Houdun and Xu Chu had already split a gap and made a rapid sprint.


    Three people are like three spikes.


    Zhang Xiu''s defensive formation began to be chaotic. In particular, after the chaos of defense formation, Cao soldiers finally entered the camp and began to wreak havoc.


    Seeing this scene, Gan Ning began to get nervous and quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side, saying: "Lord, Cao Jun has broken through the defense at the gate of the camp and has gone to the inner camp to kill. Shall we withdraw to Lushan?"


    Zhang Xiu said decisively: "withdraw!"


    On Lushan Mountain, there are not only water sources, but also a lot of grain that Zhang Xiu hoards. In addition, along the way up the mountain, Zhang Xiu also arranged many fortifications and soldiers to guard.


    He could not resist Cao Cao''s attack at the foot of the mountain, so he could resist it with the help of Lushan.


    This is a long established strategy.


    Ganning got Zhang Xiu''s order, so he didn''t hesitate any more. He ordered: "retreat, retreat to the mountain."


    "Dang! Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs rings in the camp.


    Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Pang Tong, Jia Xu and others did not delay any longer. With the soldiers in the army, they quickly withdrew from the barracks and disappeared in the sight of Cao Jun.

 Chapter 165

    Guo Jia was still silent when he heard Cao Cao''s words.


    He felt Cao Cao''s eagerness.


    As Cao Cao''s counselor, Guo Jia is deeply clear that Cao Cao is now sitting in three states. Although he looks beautiful on the surface, his strength is also very strong. In fact, Cao Cao is under great pressure.


    After all, all sides of Cao Cao are enemies. There are too many enemies to solve.


    Lu Bu wants to solve it!


    Yuan Shu wants to solve it!


    Liu Bei to solve!


    And Yuan Shao, the biggest man in the north, and a lot of people


    All these are Cao Cao''s enemies and will exert pressure on him. So Cao Cao sent troops to Zhang Xiu. He didn''t want to spend too much time in Nanyang. He wanted to solve Zhang Xiu in the shortest time, so as to transfer his forces to deal with the rest of the people.


    This is Cao Cao''s intention.


    Seeing that Guo Jia did not speak, Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "fengxiao, can''t you think of a way to defeat the enemy?"


    Guo Jia said: "Lord, it''s not that there is no way to defeat the enemy, but that Zhang Xiu is obviously prepared for the current war. It will not be of any benefit to attack Lushan when we are continuously injured. Now, we just need to wait for an opportunity, an opportunity to beat Zhang Xiu in one go. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes were bright and he asked, "do you say Yu ban?"


    "Yes


    Guo Jia nodded solemnly.


    With a sigh, Cao Cao said, "we have come to Lushan by following the official road. Yu ban and his soldiers will not be stopped along the path. In principle, we should arrive at Luyang county. But now, so far, there is no news


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the voice of Xia Houyuan came from outside the military camp.


    Cao Cao said, "come in!"


    Xia Houyuan strode into the camp and reported: "Lord, just received the news from Yu Jin, he has passed through the mountain forest and is close to the county seat of Luyang county. Now, Yu ban is looking for opportunities to seize the county seat of Luyang county. "


    "I see."


    Cao Cao nodded.


    For Cao Cao, it is not a victory if yu ban is close to Luyang county and he has not yet won the county seat of Luyang county. To win, it is only after winning Luyang county that there will be enough opportunities.


    It''s not to be happy.


    It won''t change the situation.


    Seeing that Guo Jia was also there, Xia Houyuan said, "Lord, we have a fight with Zhang Xiu. The other side is in good order. The soldiers in this embroidery are all elite. "


    "The most important thing is that whether they retreat or fight, they show a very strong will to fight."


    "Such an army is not easy to deal with. In my humble opinion, if we attack Lushan by force, it will be very difficult. Whether it is equal to the success of the ban, we will make a plan. "


    Xia Houyuan made suggestions.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao''s expression changed again and again.


    Rao is deep-minded, but this war is in trouble, he will inevitably become irritable.


    Guo Jiasi asked about Cao Cao''s situation, narrowed his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "continuous setbacks will not make the Lord fall into a dilemma. The Lord can afford the present loss. "


    "It''s not unusual for the Lord to win or lose a long time ago."


    "I believe that the matter between young master ang and Cao Anmin has affected the Lord''s thinking. As the saying goes, the Lord should not be angry and start a teacher. The Lord is in a state of agitation. It is not suitable to attack Lushan again. "


    Guo Jia is not afraid to speak.


    Cao Cao''s face froze when he heard Guo Jia''s words.


    He closed his eyes and thought about what had happened before. He really became a little impatient.


    Successive defeats have a certain impact.


    Cao ancao''s decision is the most important thing.


    Cao Cao breathed out a long breath, and his face gradually regained calm. He said with a straight face: "the words of filial piety, like morning bell and evening drum, wake me up from my eagerness for quick success and instant benefit. Thanks to filial piety, otherwise, I would be afraid to fight a confused battle. "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "my Lord is modest. Only because of Cao Anmin''s business, you are a little overwhelmed by Zhang Xiu. In particular, Zhang Xiu is extremely treacherous, aiming at Cao Anmin everywhere and breaking Cao Anmin''s legs. It''s very normal for the Lord to be furious. "


    At this moment, Guo Jiacai relaxed.


    This is Cao Cao he knew.


    Wise!


    It''s not emotional.


    Cao Cao regained his composure and began to reevaluate the whole plan. His eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "in the present situation, we can only use static braking. We camped at the foot of the mountain, blocking Zhang Xiu''s road. "


    Guo Jiayan said: "my Lord is wise!"


    He agreed with Cao Cao''s decision.


    Guo Jia continued: "our army has more people and stronger overall strength. At present, we can continue to wait, and we can afford to spend time."


    "As long as Yu Jin captured the county seat of Luyang county and cut off Zhang Xiu''s retreat and food and grass. So, Zhang Xiu can no longer be based in Lushan, it must be evacuated from Lushan. ""Once the news of the fall of Luyang county comes, Zhang Xiu will not be able to sit still and will withdraw."


    "Of course, it depends on how the ban works. If he succeeds in winning Luyang County, everything will be well arranged. If he can''t win Luyang County, he can only change his strategy and publicize the news of Yujin attacking Luyang County, so as to make Zhang Xiu withdraw. "


    Guo Jia looked wise and continued: "anyway, we have to force Zhang Xiu to take the initiative to withdraw. After he left Lushan and lost his geographical advantage, we will cover up Zhang Xiu again. "


    "That''s the only way to do it."


    Cao Cao''s face showed a touch of helplessness.


    In the current situation, he can''t find any other way to break through Zhang Xiu.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is on the mountain.


    If there is no water or food on the mountain, it will be very easy for Cao Cao to destroy Zhang Xiu''s army. But now that Zhang Xiu has water and food, and has the advantage of favorable location and people, he is really not good at it.


    Guo Jia saw that Cao Cao had recovered. He was worried and did not stay any longer. He got up and left.


    Cao Cao looked at Xia Houyuan and said, "wonderful talent, we must stabilize the morale of the soldiers, and do not let the morale of the soldiers float."


    Xia Houyuan said: "I understand your humble position."


    Cao Cao waved his hand and XiaHouYuan retreated. Cao Cao sat alone in the camp, thinking about the whole process of fighting with Zhang Xiu. A little bit of his re deduction, re disc, looking for the wrong place.


    This is Cao Cao''s habit.


    If you fail, you have to make a second bid and think about all the problems carefully.


    Cao Cao reevaluated the situation and warned himself that he could no longer be impatient, let alone despise Zhang Xiu. Before that, he underestimated the enemy too much and thought that Zhang Xiu was not a worry, which led to many problems.


    Now, you can''t make the same mistake again.


    After thinking about it, Cao Cao stood up and left the Chinese army tent to go to Cao Ang''s camp.


    Cao Angku sat in the camp, looking a little dispirited. Lunch at noon, still on the desk, he did not eat a bite. Cao Ang''s eyes were covered with blood.


    That a handsome cheek, lost the confidence and glory of the past, full of guilt and remorse.


    He is still immersed in Cao Anmin''s affairs.


    There''s no way out.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s words, but also hit Cao ang, make him extremely remorse.


    Cao Cao lifted his robe and sat down beside Cao ang. Looking at the guilty Cao ang, he felt very sad.


    This is his son.


    He is the eldest son of his high hopes.


    Cao ang not only looks like Cao Cao, but also has the same ability and mind. Cao Angtai is the only one who pays too much attention to emotion, which is a proud but helpless place for Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao patted Cao ang on the shoulder and said slowly, "aung''er, do you know what it''s like to be my father after he killed LV Bohe''s family?"


    Cao ang raised his head and shook his head.


    He knows about the killing of LV Boche. At that time, Cao Cao attempted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, so he escaped from Luoyang and went to his old friend Lu Boche''s home to stay for a while.


    Lu Bo was so hospitable that he ordered his son to kill pigs and sheep to entertain Cao Cao, while he himself went out to drink.


    Cao Cao didn''t know that LV Bohe wanted to entertain him. Hearing the sound of sharpening his sword, he was surprised and suspected that he was under the rule and killed LV Bohe''s family. After Cao Cao killed people, he saw the pigs and sheep killed and realized that he had killed the wrong people.


    After Cao Cao fled, he met LV Bohe on the way. He was worried that LV Bohe would report him and kill LV Bohe.


    Then, Cao Cao left.


    This is a disgraceful thing for Cao Cao. It is also a taboo in Cao''s army and has never been mentioned.


    Now, Cao Cao takes the initiative to say it.


    Cao Cao sighed and continued: "at that time, my father was very worried when he found that he had killed the wrong person. Especially in the case of losing his mind, he killed LV Boche again, and his heart was extremely anxious. "


    "Because killing a man who is very kind to his father is vengeance."


    "But what can we do now? As a father, you can only hide all the pain in your heart, and then keep your spirits up and continue to walk with your head high. "


    "It''s the only way."


    "What people in this world like most is the way you look down and helpless. I''ll be blamed for what I''ve done wrong. However, I will never allow myself to continue to be despicable. "


    "So, I''m going to work hard."


    Cao Cao continued, "if you are so depressed now, what will Zhang Xiu think of you? He must hope that you feel guilty, remorseful, or even decadent. "


    "This is what Zhang Xiu wants to see."


    "But what does an min want to see? He wants to see you pull yourself together and take revenge for him. Even if this time, I can''t save Anmin, but we can still find a way to defeat Zhang Xiu and avenge Anmin. "


    Cao Cao painstakingly way: "you decadent, you down, the whole world no one will sympathize with you, only look down on you."Listening to Cao Cao''s words, Cao ang was much better. He nodded and said, "my father taught me a good lesson."


    Cao Cao continued: "in the present situation, it should be safe to pacify the people. Because when we attacked, Zhang Xiu sent someone to take Anmin away. When we defeat Zhang Xiu, we will have a chance to save Anmin. It''s useless for you to blame yourself. You can only cheer up and strive to defeat Zhang Xiu as soon as possible to avenge the people. "


    After hearing this, Cao ang saw the hope.


    The shadow on his face gradually dissipated and he said, "my son understands. Thank you for your father''s instruction. My son won''t let Zhang Xiu succeed. He will cheer up. "


    "Just understand."


    Seeing this, Cao Cao was also relieved.


    He appeased Cao ang and told him to cheer up. Then he got up and left, and went to XiahouDun''s camp.

 Chapter 166

    Cao Cao came to XiahouDun''s camp. At the moment, XiahouDun''s feet had been wrapped up, and his buttocks were wrapped up like zongzi, which was very embarrassed. His injury is not very serious, but such injury is too helpless.


    In a short time, he can''t use force.


    Cao Cao concerned: "Yuan rang, have you recovered?"


    On hearing Cao Cao''s concern, Xia Houdun was moved and replied, "don''t worry, my Lord. It''s no big deal. After a few days of training, you can recover. "


    "That''s good!"


    Cao Cao nodded.


    Xia Houdun continued: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is a cunning son of a bitch, and his hand is even more fierce. Even weapons like Tribulus terrestris can be used. We''ll fight Zhang Xiu next. We have to be more careful. "


    Cao Cao said, "what yuan rang said is true."


    For Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao now dare not have the slightest contempt.


    Mr. Xia Houdun continued: "you don''t have to pay too much attention to the matter of pacifying the people. I also advise young master ang that the matter of pacifying the people has nothing to do with him. "


    "I know!"


    Cao Cao nodded.


    Now that he has recovered, he naturally knows what to do and what not to do. Cao Cao will not regret what he has done. He always believes in himself.


    Cao Cao comforted XiahouDun again, then left and went to Dianwei''s camp.


    Today''s events put great pressure on Dianwei.


    He had to appease him.


    Moreover, Dianwei was also injured, which also needs him to go to comfort.


    Cao Cao came to Dianwei''s camp. At the moment, Dianwei was injured on his buttocks. He could not sit down after dressing. He could only stand or lie on his bed. It was very troublesome.


    When Dian Wei saw that Cao Cao was coming, he immediately went forward to salute.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "don''t be too polite."


    "Lord, sit down!"


    Dian Wei stooped to one side and asked, "my Lord, what''s the matter?"


    Cao Cao said: "Dian Wei, today''s archery contest with Zhang Xiu needs no attention. Winning or losing is a matter of military affairs. This time, Zhang Xiu won, and the next time she won, she will come back. "


    Dian Wei nodded and said, "my Lord, I really lost my humble position. I was defeated by Zhang Xiu in archery. I''m convinced. The only regret is that he failed to complete the entrustment of the Lord and save Cao Anmin. "


    Cao Cao shook his head, comforted: "life and death have a destiny, wealth in heaven, this is the life of the people. What''s more, even if you beat Zhang Xiu to win, Zhang Xiu will not be able to release Anmin. "


    "Ah?"


    Dian Wei is surprised: "impossible?"


    Cao Fengjia said, "it''s the same with Guo Xiaocao''s explanation. Zhang Xiu''s mouth said that once you win him, you will release Anmin and let Anmin leave. "


    "But the question is, can an min leave if he is seriously injured?"


    "As long as Zhang Xiu doesn''t hand over people, our soldiers can''t get in touch with Anmin at all. How can we save people back?"


    "This is Zhang Xiu''s trick."


    Cao Cao said: "at the beginning, I didn''t understand. But after careful consideration, we find that Zhang Xiu is also a fox. He is a little fox who has become a master and dug a hole early. It''s a shame that I did all the dancing. "


    "Hoo


    Dianway was relieved.


    The pressure in my heart is gone.


    In fact, he lost to Zhang Xiu in archery. He didn''t think it was anything, but his skill was inferior to others. But he failed to fulfill Cao Cao''s instructions, which was his pressure.


    Dianwei said: "thank you, Lord."


    Cao Cao patted Dian Wei on the shoulder and said, "you are my favorite general and the most important fighting force. You can''t be absent from the follow-up war. Take good care of your injury, and take care of it early, so that you can fight with me. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Dian Wei''s fist should be thrown.


    At this moment, Dianwei is full of energy and pressure.


    Cao Cao appeased Dianwei again before leaving his camp. Instead of returning to Dagang immediately, he went to the rest place of the wounded soldiers in the army to comfort them and boost their morale.


    After all this, Cao Cao returned to the central army.


    ¡­¡­


    Lushan, on the mountain.


    After counting all the losses, Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu''s tent and reported the situation.


    More than 200 soldiers were lost in this battle.


    More soldiers were injured, more than 600. However, the number of seriously injured soldiers is not large, as long as a simple treatment, they can quickly recover, not a big problem.


    This news makes Zhang Xiu jubilant and proud.


    This battle is a great victory.


    In this war, we have made great achievements.


    After hearing the news, Zhang Xiu personally went to the wounded barracks to appease the wounded soldiers.After returning, he told the soldiers to bring Cao Anmin. Now Cao Anmin''s injuries have been dealt with. No matter the wounds on the back, under the ribs or on the legs, they have been bandaged.


    His whole body is injured, bandaged the whole person, like a big dumpling, action is very inconvenient.


    At this time, Cao Anmin recovered some spirit.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Anmin, how does it feel to be abandoned by Cao Cao as an abandoned son?"


    "Not bad!"


    Cao Anmin answered directly.


    He is extremely afraid of Zhang Xiu, and has a strong hatred.


    Although Cao Cao did not care about his life, he did not complain, because he knew very well that it was not easy for him to make a decision in his position.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "what you think in your heart is that Cao Cao let Dian Wei compete with me, although he lost. But Cao Cao has tried his best, and it is not easy for him. In addition, Guo Jia''s noble status, Cao Cao''s confidant, can not really exchange you. Is that right? "


    Cao Anmin snorted, but did not answer.


    But his expression also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s words. He really thought about it in this way. He is only a nephew of Cao Cao. When it comes to the importance, he is far less important than Guo Jia. Cao Cao can not exchange Guo Jia for him.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and continued: "in fact, you ignore Cao Cao''s selfishness."


    "It''s not difficult for Cao Cao to save you. He just needs to agree to withdraw and leave Nanyang County, then I can let you go and let you leave Nanyang County. "


    "With Cao Cao''s treachery, he can withdraw from the army first, change you back, and then take the army into Nanyang County again. It''s just that Cao Cao doesn''t want to toss about like this. "


    "So, Cao Cao gave up on you."


    Zhang Xiu continued to bewitch, said: "Cao Cao is not no chance to save you, just not willing to do it."


    Cao Anmin''s eyes were cold and his expression was cold.


    He had a good relationship with Cao Cao. He was very close to Cao Cao and couldn''t be provoked by Zhang Xiu. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I can''t believe you no matter how much you try to provoke me. I know better than you what the Lord is facing. I know better than you about the problems my Lord has encountered. You want to bewitch me. There''s no way. "


    "Ha..."


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "it''s too stupid."


    In his heart, he shook his head.


    Cao Cao is really good to the people under his command, and he is deeply loved by his subordinates. Although Cao Cao is suspicious, although he has a thick face and a dark heart, his skill of controlling people is extremely brilliant, which makes his subordinates follow him wholeheartedly.


    Cao Anmin said: "Zhang Xiu, don''t waste your time. If you want to kill or cut, do as you please. I can''t betray my Lord. "


    Seeing that Cao Anmin''s attitude was so stubborn, Zhang Xiu knew that it was impossible to recruit him. What he can do, at most, is to give Cao Anmin some bumps in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say more. She called for the soldiers and asked them to take Cao Anmin back.


    Zhang Xiu was the only one left in the camp.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Soon after, a sound of footwork came from outside the self operated account.


    Zhang Xiu looked up, but Jia Xu and Pang Tong came together. There was a faint smile on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you two are happy, but what''s the good news?"


    Jia Xu nodded to Pang Tong and motioned to him.


    Pang Tong was also impolite and said quickly: "Lord, I just received the news from the spies. Our spies who are ambushing near Luyang county have found a Cao army, and they have gone to the county seat of Luyang county. "


    "The fish finally took the bait."


    Zhang Xiu a listen, the face also rose bright smile.


    Waiting for a long time, it finally became.

 Chapter 167

    When Zhang Xiu heard the news, her eyes became sharper than ever before, and she said in a deep voice: "according to our original inference, Cao Cao''s strange soldier, the next step is to seize the county seat of Luyang county. The next step is to spread the news to force us to come back. "


    Pang Tong said: "Mr. Jia''s judgment is certainly correct."


    He also knew Jia Xu''s plan and his judgment of the future situation.


    Pang Tong admired Jia Xu even more.


    Now he has accepted Jia Xu and learned from him. Because he found himself like a student in front of Jia Xu. In terms of strategic layout, his uncle Pang Degong and his elder Sima Hui are far behind Jia Xu.


    This is a man of great talent.


    Learning from Jia Xu is no shame.


    This is his chance.


    So Pang Tong''s attitude in front of Jia Xu was very low, without any rebellious.


    With a smile on his face, Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "the plan has come to this stage. The competition with Cao Cao has become increasingly fierce. It depends on who can ambush whom. I have been informed that the troops stationed in Cao Cao''s rear are in place. But they haven''t found the granary of Cao Jun yet. "


    "Don''t worry, take your time!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are calm, but there is a flash of fire in the quiet eyes.


    He wants to win.


    He wants to defeat Cao Cao.


    Although Cao Cao''s side of the plot, the intention to win Luyang county. However, Zhang Xiu also took advantage of the situation and tried to make a plan to win the war.


    ¡­¡­


    Luyang County, county city.


    County government study.


    Lu GUI looked at the letter he had just presented, with a look of meditation on his face.


    The letters were sent back by sentinels around Luyang county. The content of the letter is that the soldiers found three thousand Cao soldiers, who appeared from the Northeast path of Luyang county and were quietly coming to kill them in the county.


    Lu GUI didn''t have any worries about the killing of Cao Jun. Because before that, Zhang Xiu sent someone alone to send back a letter, so that once he met Cao''s attack, he would give up resistance and let Cao take Luyang county.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu also early ordered him to transfer the grain hoard in Luyang county.


    Lu GUI is also truthfully in accordance with Zhang Xiu''s orders, all the food, are transferred to remote places to hide.


    When Cao Jun entered the city, he could not find food.


    What Lu GUI should do is to cooperate with Cao Jun''s actions and gain Cao Jun''s trust. Then, at the critical moment, he helped Zhang Xiu counter attack Cao Jun and gave Cao Jun a fatal blow.


    Of course, he didn''t get clear instructions on the timing of the counter attack and how to fight back. He wanted to be flexible. It was Zhang Xiu''s arrangement that Lu GUI''s surveillance of the gate of Luyang county during this period of time was intensive.


    He has been paying close attention to the movement of the city gate.


    A day goes by.


    On this day, since the morning, Lu guide''s sentinel sent back news. Throughout the morning, people entered the county one after another, never stopping. The people who enter the county include business travelers, hawkers and some people who have fled here.


    When Lu GUI got the news, he understood.


    Here comes Cao Jun.


    Because since Zhang Xiu was stationed in the front line of Lushan and fought with Cao Cao, few people came to the county seat of Luyang county. There are very few people going in and out of Luyang county every day. Most of the time, some soldiers escorting grain come in and out.


    So many people are here today.


    It''s abnormal.


    When something goes wrong, it''s a demon. Lu GUI, in particular, has long known that Cao Jun came to Luyang county. So Lu GUI can definitely judge that Cao Jun broke up into parts and mixed into the county seat of Luyang county.


    But lugui did not take action and did not make any arrangements.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s order.


    In the evening, at a remote place in the south of Luyang County, Yu Jin and his 3000 soldiers gathered. All the soldiers were dressed in uniform and armed.


    Thanks to the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city, they were not strictly checked before they could transport all their weapons into the city. Otherwise, even if his soldiers sneak into the city, they will not get weapons.


    Yu Jin looked around at the soldiers under his command, looking at the proud soldiers, with a touch of color on his face.


    Entering the city is tantamount to winning Luyang county.


    Everything is within reach.


    Yu Jin looked around and said: "the battle between Sikong and Zhang Xiu depends on our action tonight. Tonight, we need to take down the county government, control the magistrate of Luyang County, and then control the square gate. You follow me. We will work together and fight with all our strength. "


    "Here it is


    All soldiers, come in.


    The soldiers didn''t have much voice. They didn''t dare to make too much noise at night.


    Yu Jin asked the soldiers to eat some dry food and adjust their physical strength first. It''s just the beginning of spring now, and it''s cold in late spring. It''s chilly in the evening, and it''s very cold.And it gets dark early.


    Seeing that it was completely dark, Yu Jin did not hesitate any more. He took the soldiers to leave quickly and risked the night to go to the county government.


    Three thousand soldiers under his command were sent out together to win the county government. Yu Jin and his soldiers rushed all the way, and did not meet any pedestrians in the street.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the party finally arrived outside the county government.


    Yu Jin, dressed in armor and high spirited, waved his hand and ordered: "come on, knock the door open for me."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to quickly carry a piece of wood and rush to the gate of the county government.


    "Boom!"


    The wood as big as a washbasin hit the gate of the county government with a loud noise. Under the impact of wood, the dilapidated gate of the county government is already crumbling.


    "Who?"


    "Who''s knocking at the door?"


    County yamen, Vigil door, found the door was hit, loud questioning.


    The soldiers ignored Yu Jin and continued to bump.


    The gatekeeper panicked and roared the news out. Not long after, the soldiers in the county government vigil quickly gathered. But at the moment when they just got together, the shaking door couldn''t hold.


    With a loud bang, the gate collapsed, leaving an empty frame.


    "Up


    Yu Jin stood at the gate, commanding the soldiers to charge.


    Cao''s soldiers are all elite. The Yamen servants under Lu GUI''s command are a group of soldiers with weak combat effectiveness. They are not Cao''s soldiers at all. They are all subdued in a short time.


    Yujin path to the hall, waiting quietly.


    After a short time, the captain escorted lugui into the hall.


    The captain pushed Lu GUI to the ground and said, "general, this is the magistrate of Luyang county. Mo Jiang went to his yard to arrest people, but no one was found. In a short time, he slipped from the yard to the back yard, intending to escape. He will run fast, or he will run away. "


    Yu Jin raised a sneer and asked, "what''s your name?"


    "Lugui!"


    Lu GUI answered without hesitation.


    He got Zhang Xiu''s command, which was to be obedient, so he answered the name directly. In fact, the reason why he wanted to slip away before was to paralyze Yu ban. He deliberately made an appearance so that he could win the trust of Yu ban.


    Yu Jin snorted and said straight to the point: "this general Yu Jin is a great general under Cao Sikong''s account. Do you want to die now that you are in the hands of the general? Still want to live. "


    Without hesitation, Lu GUI said, "I want to live. I want to live."


    He said in a deep voice: "if you want to live, you have to cooperate with the general. As long as you cooperate, you will not lose your official position in Luyang County, but will be promoted. When Sikong defeats Zhang Xiu, I will ask for your help. "


    "Willing to cooperate."


    Lu GUI once again replied: "please rest assured, General Yu, that the next officer will be loyal to Sikong."


    "Get up," Yu said


    "General Xie!"


    Lu GUI said thanks, standing aside, still a look of lingering fear.


    Yu Jin didn''t delay any longer. He stood up and said, "go with me to the gate of Sifang in Luyang county. Next, Ben will take over the defense of Sifang Shing Mun. In addition, you will hand over all the grain in Luyang county. "


    Lu GUI said: "please rest assured that general Yu, villain fully cooperate. But there is not much grain in Luyang county. Please forgive me. "


    Yu Jin said: "Zhang Xiu''s military supplies are all in Luyang county. How can it be that there are not many?"


    "Wronged!"


    Rugui will never admit it.


    He quickly explained: "General Yu, Zhang Xiu didn''t hoard grain in Luyang county. In today''s County, there are only a few grains in the grain depot of the county government. "


    "Are you serious?" Yu asked


    Lu GUI said: "dare not deceive adults, this is absolutely true."


    Yu Jin thought for a while and said, "since there is no one, that''s all."


    "Let''s go!"


    Yu Jin didn''t doubt it. He took Lu GUI and went straight to the gate. As far as the ban is concerned, Lu Guidu has already surrendered. It is impossible to lie. Since he says there is no food, there must be no food.


    This is his judgment.


    With the help of Lu GUI, Yu Jin quickly took over the gate of Sifang city. Then he returned to the army and immediately dispatched soldiers to send the news of the fall of Luyang county to Cao Cao overnight.

 Chapter 168

    The night was deep.


    On February nights, there is a chill in the wind.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hoof is rapid, which breaks the silence of the night.


    The sentries sent by Yu Jin, braved the night and the cold wind, went straight to Lushan. Although it''s chilly in spring and cold at night, the sentry doesn''t dare to delay his time and keeps on going at the same speed.


    Fortunately, it is not far from Luyang county to Lushan.


    Before dawn, the cavalry came to Cao''s camp. He galloped his horse and stood, looking at the soldiers stationed at the door. He said in a loud voice, "I''m ordered by General Yu Jin to see Sikong, and I''m going to pass on the news as soon as possible."


    Yu Jin has a great reputation in the army.


    The soldiers in the garrison did not dare to delay their time when they heard the speech, so they went to inform them immediately.


    The garrison soldiers did not dare to disturb Cao Cao and had no chance to see him. They had to report to Xia Houyuan first. Although Xia Houyuan had fallen asleep, when he heard the news from the soldiers, he quickly got on the boat''s clothes and rushed to the gate of the camp.


    He looked at the sentry who rode back and asked, "did Yu Jin take Luyang county?"


    "Yes


    The sentry answered directly.


    Xia Houyuan is the chief General of the army. When Xia Houyuan inquires, he answers immediately.


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Xia Houyuan raised a touch of excitement on his face and couldn''t help making friends loudly.


    That''s great.


    At last, it''s done.


    "Go, follow me to see Sikong."


    Xia Houyuan gave an order and took the sentry to enter the camp to the camp where Cao Cao was resting. Two people came to the Chinese army tent, XiaHouYuan let the soldiers report.


    Not long after, Cao Cao summoned the order.


    Xia Houyuan came in with a sentinel. Seeing the sleepy eyed Cao Cao, he held his fist and saluted. He took the lead in saying: "Lord, Yu Jin and his army raided Luyang County, and they have controlled the county and achieved success."


    The spirit of Cao Cao was shocked.


    His head full of sleepiness, in this moment, disappeared clean.


    Cao Cao asked: "where is the war report?"


    The sentry took out the letter and presented it to Cao Cao. After Cao Cao took it, he quickly browsed it. After a long time, Cao Cao''s face was filled with joy.


    Finally took Luyang county.


    Guo Jia''s plan became a success.


    Now Luyang county is under the control of ban, which means that Zhang Xiu''s back road has been cut off, and Zhang Xiu has become a lone army. In the case of Zhanglu embroidery, it''s time to go back to the rescue area, or it''s time to get the news.


    Either way is good for Cao Cao.


    This time, Zhang Xiu is in a disadvantageous position.


    Cao Cao got up in spirit and ordered: "XiaHouYuan, after daybreak, you will mobilize soldiers to the foot of Lushan Mountain to publicize the news of the fall of Luyang county and let Zhang Xiu know. As long as Zhang Xiu and his soldiers know that Luyang county has fallen, there will be turmoil. This is our chance


    "I understand


    Xia Houyuan responded directly.


    Today''s XiaHouYuan is also full of fighting spirit. He has full assurance that Zhang Xiu can not stick to Lushan. Because if Zhang Xiu does not withdraw, Yu Jin can continue to go south.


    This time, in order to resist Cao Cao''s army, Zhang Xiu has transferred all the troops of Nanyang County. The defense strength of each county is very weak, and it can''t stop the forbidden attack.


    Zhang Xiu is sure to withdraw.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu withdraws, he will be killed by Cao Jun.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu will be defeated.


    This is Xia Houyuan''s judgment.


    Cao Cao waved his hand, and Xia Houyuan and the sentinel withdrew from the Chinese army. Cao Cao sat alone in the tent, with a look of expectation on his face, and murmured: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you are so cunning. I''ll see if you can survive. If you can even avoid this step of killing, then you are powerful. "


    He was so excited that he was no longer sleepy.


    Unable to fall asleep, Cao Cao simply took out his art of war and spread out his book to read it carefully. Today, Cao Cao does not use bamboo slips to read books, but paper books.


    Xuan paper has been popularized in Jingzhou. Since Xiangyang in Jingzhou, it has been rapidly expanding and becoming popular all over the world.


    Cao Cao also used rice paper.


    He was also full of praise for rice paper, so he bought a lot of rice paper in large quantities, and then copied the art of war in order to carry it with him.


    He''s completely down-to-earth now.


    When I read a book, I gradually fell in love. I didn''t realize that time had passed. In a twinkling of an eye, it was already dawn.


    In the army, there is the sound of exercises.


    The soldiers in the army have got up early and are all mobilized.


    Cao Cao rubbed his sore temples, washed his face and came out of the tent. He walked not far, and saw that Cao ang had already got up for morning exercise.


    Cao Cao was very satisfied with Cao Ang''s present state. He waved, and Cao ang ran quickly and saluted: "father!"Cao Cao said with a smile: "just got the news, Yu Jin captured Luyang county. We''re going to start the counterattack. "


    Cao ang was excited when he heard the speech.


    This is a golden opportunity.


    Cao ang clenched his fist and asked, "father, are we going to attack Lushan now?"


    Cao Cao''s face suddenly cooled down.


    When Cao ang saw Cao Cao''s face, he was worried. He didn''t know where he was wrong.


    "Do you know what''s wrong?" Cao Cao asked


    Cao ang said, "please give me your father''s advice."


    Cao Cao snorted and said, "Luyang county is under our control. Is it necessary to attack Lushan? When doing things, don''t be blinded by anger, let alone dazed by anger. Think about it


    As soon as Cao Cao brushed his sleeve, he turned and left.


    He was a little disappointed.


    Although Cao ang is intelligent, he is also a capable man. But because of a Cao Anmin, he was out of his mind and lost his sense. He couldn''t even do the basic analysis, which made him disappointed.


    Such Cao ang, like an ant, can be stabbed to death with only a slight poke.


    When Cao Cao came to the army, Xia Houyuan had mobilized his soldiers.


    Three hundred elite soldiers left the camp and soon came to the foot of Lushan Mountain, shouting loudly to publicize the news that Luyang county had changed its owner. Three hundred soldiers cried out together, and the news clearly spread to the mountains of Lushan.


    Soldiers stationed on the mountain get the news and report it quickly.


    These generals reported to Gan Ning level by level, and soon they reported to Gan Ning. When Ganning heard the news, he saw the flustered general, hummed, and said, "what flustered? The fall of Luyang county was arranged by the governor. It''s the strategy of the governor. Keep your orders steady. Now, our chance to defeat Cao Cao is coming. "


    "Yes


    The centurion who reported this also regained his calm.


    It turns out that there has been a layout for a long time.


    The centurion felt at ease and went down to inform him. He also relayed Gan Ning''s words, so that the soldiers could avoid the commotion and stabilize their morale.


    Ganning quickly came to the Chinese army tent, saw Zhang Xiu, and reported: "Lord, there are Cao soldiers shouting at the foot of the mountain, saying that Cao army has conquered Luyang county."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "Cao Cao''s speed is really not slow. In a short time, that''s it. "


    "How do we deal with that?" Ganning asked


    With a smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said, "what we are going to do next is to break through the encirclement and leave Lushan and attract Cao Cao''s army to pursue us. Isn''t Cao Cao''s intention to pursue us? "


    Ganning said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "but before we break through, we have to wait a little longer. Cao Cao''s everything is ready, waiting for us to break through and leave, so as to cover us up. But we don''t have a suitable opportunity yet. "


    "What opportunity?"


    Ganning was puzzled.


    According to Jia Xu''s previous layout, everything should be right.


    At this time, Jia Xu came in a hurry, with a smile on his face, and said: "Lord, everything is ready. The news came back from the front line. Our people have found the location of Cao Cao''s rear garrison in the granary. They are preparing for action. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed an uplifting smile on her face.


    That''s what''s in place.


    Jia Xu''s plan is to let Cao Cao arrange for a surprise force to capture Luyang county. In order to avoid being isolated, Zhang Xiu will lead his troops out of Lushan, take Cao Cao''s army around the circle, attract Cao Cao''s attention, and create opportunities for another army to leave early.


    The other leader of the army was Ling Feng.


    This is the person who followed Zhang Xiu early in the morning and is also a Veteran General in the army.


    Although the importance of the generals of the Xiliang army, such as Huang Zhao and Ling Feng, began to decline after Gan Ning and Chen Zhi surrendered to Zhang Xiu, they were still the mainstays and the most important people in the army.


    With Ling Feng, Zhang Xiu is very relieved.


    Ling Feng''s purpose was to sneak into Cao Cao''s rear area with a few soldiers, to find the place where Cao Cao stationed his food and grass, and to burn his food and grass, so that Cao Cao''s army lost its food.


    This is Jia Xu''s plan.


    This is the bottom line!

 Chapter 169

    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are well-trained. The most important thing is that they have been informed long ago that once the army ordered to withdraw, they would not be allowed to love war, but would quickly retreat to the mountains.


    This is well known.


    Therefore, soldiers are not war loving.


    In addition, there are barracks everywhere in the barracks, and fortifications are set up in many places, which are not open areas where people can run freely. Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are familiar with the terrain and can retreat quickly.


    On the contrary, Cao Cao''s soldiers are not familiar with the situation. Even if they catch the soldiers in the rear, a large number of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers have already drawn a certain distance.


    At least, it won''t be covered up on a large scale.


    "Chase, speed up the chase!"


    Dianwei took the halberd and gave a loud order.


    Not far from Dianwei, both XiahouDun and xuchu were there. Both of them are tiger generals in the army with excellent martial arts. At the moment, two people see Zhang Xiu''s army withdraw, also with the fastest speed.


    They catch up and kill Zhang Xiu''s army.


    "Chase, chase!"


    Cao ang also joined in the pursuit.


    He wants to kill Cao Anmin and take advantage of the chaos. But he killed in Zhang Xiu''s camp. From beginning to end, he didn''t find any trace of Cao Anmin. He could only pursue and kill with the soldiers in the army.


    Both sides ran after each other and soon reached the foot of Lushan Mountain.


    The distance between the two sides is about ten steps.


    Zhang Xiu had already started to climb the mountain. He looked back and saw that Cao Jun''s soldiers were approaching the foot of the mountain, so he stopped and stood still. He arranged for the soldiers who had already been in place to prepare for action at the foot of the mountain.


    Waiting for the last group of soldiers to withdraw to the mountain, Zhang Xiu ordered: "quickly, throw the Tribulus terrestris."


    Tribulus terrestris is a triangular cone.


    This kind of weapon has a conical formation with a sharp cone on three sides. If a Tribulus terrestris is thrown on the ground, it can stand firmly on the ground no matter how it is handled. There is always one end up.


    This weapon is used to stop the horses from attacking. Once the cavalry pursues and kills, as long as the Tribulus terrestris is scattered on the ground, and the horses step on the Tribulus terrestris, the horse''s hooves will be injured and can no longer run.


    In the same way, it can also be used on soldiers.


    Once the soldier''s foot is stepped down, the three inch long cone is enough to pierce the person''s foot.


    Dense Tribulus terrestris, quickly fell on the ground, spilled on the ground. But Zhang Xiu told the soldiers to scatter about ten Zhang distance, then took the soldiers to climb the mountain, and stationed at the first intersection of the mountain, waiting for Cao Jun to arrive.


    He has the advantage of geographical advantage, enough to hold Lushan steadily.


    Even so, Cao''s offensive was fierce.


    At the foot of the mountain, Cao''s soldiers are still coming.


    It''s not long. Soldiers have arrived. These Cao soldiers, who are constantly rushing forward, have been killed so much that they don''t pay attention to the situation at their feet. Especially in the area at the foot of the mountain, there are deciduous weeds everywhere, so it''s not easy to find anything.


    Many soldiers rushed in rashly and stepped on the Tribulus terrestris with one foot.


    Including XiahouDun, also stepped on it.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp spikes of Tribulus terrestris pierced the soles of XiahouDun''s feet. At that moment, XiahouDun stood in the same place in pain and did not dare to rush forward. But although XiahouDun stopped, there were still soldiers rushing to the rear.


    Under the collision and crowding of the soldiers in the rear, the soldiers who suddenly stopped in front could not stop their bodies at all.


    One by one, one by one, and then one after another.


    "Ah! Ah! "


    Scream, constantly ring out.


    One by one, Cao''s soldiers fell to the ground and were stabbed by Tribulus terrestris again. Although the spikes of Tribulus terrestris don''t grow very long, as long as they don''t hit the key, they are not in danger.


    But this kind of injury, enough to make people pain to death.


    Harhoughton was not spared either.


    He stepped on the Tribulus terrestris with one foot. The sole of his left foot had just been hit by the attack. Before he could get back, the soldiers from the rear had already hit him. After seeing this, XiahouDun quickly dodged, but there were a lot of soldiers all around him, all falling down, and he couldn''t escape at all.


    He couldn''t hold his body and was knocked to the ground.


    He sat down, only to hear the sound of Puchi, several tribulus stabbed his ass.


    "Ah


    After XiahouDun''s death, his face was extremely ferocious.


    Pain!


    It really hurts.


    XiahouDun couldn''t hold back any longer. He opened his mouth and screamed. He wanted to stand up, but soldiers were still falling around him. Fortunately, he carefully avoided being hurt again.


    After a while, the soldiers stopped.


    At this moment, XiahouDun stood up, looked at the bloody soles of his feet, and touched his aching buttocks, with a bitter look on his face.


    It''s a big loss this time.


    With a glance, XiahouDun suddenly found that Dianwei was not far away from him. At this time, Dianwei also stood up, and Dianwei''s butt, also inserted a Tribulus terrestris."Poof


    Immediately, XiahouDun began to laugh and said, "diansunspot, you are so careful that you are also caught."


    When he was alone, he was sad. At the moment, seeing that Dian Wei was also hit, I feel some comfort. When Xia Houdun laughed at himself, he found that Xu Chu was not hurt.


    Laughter, stopped immediately.


    The corner of XiahouDun''s mouth drew, and he did not speak any more. On the contrary, he was a little embarrassed.


    When the army stagnated, Cao Cao led the army.


    When Cao Cao saw that the soldiers were stopped and asked about the situation, Xia Houdun limped up and said in a deep voice: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is so insidious. When we pursued him, he sprinkled a lot of Tribulus Terrestris on our way up the mountain. You see, I''ve been punctured on the sole of my foot and hurt my ass


    Dian Wei stood aside silently, the iron halberd put away, and took off the iron Tribulus Terrestris on the buttocks, covered the bleeding buttocks and stood aside silently.


    When Cao Cao saw this, he was helpless.


    Zhang Xiu is also too cunning. There are so many ways to stop her.


    Cao Cao looked around, and all of them were moaning and groaning. Because the soldiers in the front were all injured, or the soles of their feet, or the buttocks, or the palms of their hands


    The injuries one by one are very strange.


    When Cao Cao saw it, he looked up at the hillside and saw that on the slope about fifty steps away from him, Zhang Xiu set up checkpoints for soldiers to stop him.


    On the mountain, there is a barrier.


    From the foot of the mountain to the top, it is different from the flat sprint, which is much more difficult.


    After thinking, Cao Cao said, "XiaHouYuan!"


    "Yes


    Xia Houyuan quickly followed up and saluted.


    Cao Cao said: "count the losses, and then lead the troops back to camp."


    "Here it is


    Knowing that Cao Cao could not attack the mountain again, Xia Houyuan retreated with his soldiers and camped at the foot of the mountain.


    Soldiers stationed, XiaHouYuan began to count the losses. By noon, the army''s losses had been counted. Xia Houyuan came to the Chinese Army''s account with the war report and reported: "Lord, I have finished counting the losses. In this war, we killed more than 1600 soldiers and injured more than 2000. At the foot of the mountain, hundreds of soldiers were injured. "


    Cao Cao''s face became gloomy when he heard the speech.


    It''s a big loss.


    A loss of more than 1000 at a time, even if he had 30000 elite soldiers, he could not afford such a loss.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath and asked, "how much is the loss of Zhang Xiu due to our fighting with Zhang Xiu?"


    Looking embarrassed, Xia Houyuan replied: "at present, there are only more than 200 corpses in our statistics. It is estimated that Zhang Xiu''s loss will not exceed 300 people at this point. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he slapped it on the desk.


    This is Cao Cao''s rare anger.


    With Cao Cao''s mind, he has long been happy and angry, and has long been unaffected by things. I can''t help but get angry when I hear the news reported by Xia Houyuan.


    The difference in losses between the two sides is too great.


    He lost more than 1600 people, and Zhang Xiu lost no more than 200. If it goes on like this, let alone attacking Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will attack him in the opposite direction.


    Xia Houyuan said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu has a favorable geographical position. We are attacking Zhang Xiu again, and the loss is naturally greater. Moreover, the previous contest between Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu also affected the morale of the army. "


    Cao Cao''s face was as gloomy as water.


    He waved his hand, let XiaHouYuan back, and then ordered people to call Guojia.


    Cao Cao said the war report reported by Xia Houyuan and said in a deep voice: "although Zhang Xiu is young, her strength is relatively weak. But he relies on the advantage of geographical location to weaken us a little bit. Now the war in Lushan has caused us great losses. In the long run, we can''t beat Zhang Xiu. Fengxiao, what''s your plan to defeat the enemy? "


    Guojia smell speech, but also into thinking, he also found that Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with.


    This is a tough guy.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s every move is useful in calculation. Facing such a person, it is not easy to beat the other side.


    Cao Cao looked a little anxious and continued: "we can''t wait for the news of the ban, and don''t take any action. Now, we must find a way to contain Zhang Xiu. "

 Chapter 170

    After hearing Jia Xu''s words, Gan Ning was very happy.


    As a Veteran General in the army, he naturally knew the benefits of touching Cao Cao''s granary. As the saying goes, food and grass go first before troops move. In a war, grain and grass are the most important strategic materials.


    Once food and grass are lost, tens of thousands of people and horses will lose their rations. This kind of thing happens in the army, which is quite terrifying. It may lead to military unrest or mutiny.


    Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment and said: "at present, Cao Cao''s army is mainly stationed on the north slope of Lushan. Although Cao Cao''s soldiers are stationed in other directions, it is not difficult to select one side to break through with our strength. "


    Gan Ning suggested: "according to Mr. Jia''s plan, we should go around the bush with Cao Jun. Under such circumstances, why not go to Yanzhou? Going to Yanzhou, on the one hand, is far away from CaoJun in Luyang county. On the other hand, it''s close to Cao''s granary. "


    "No!"


    Jia Xu refused directly.


    There was a flash of light in Jia Xu''s eyes and he said, "Cao Cao is very smart and not easy to be compared with. The counselors around Cao Cao also have insight into the situation. If we don''t go south to the county, we go north instead. It''s easy to scare the snake. "


    "Cao Cao probably speculated that our intention to go north would further affect the garrison near Cao''s granary. Once Cao Cao strengthens the number of troops stationed in the granary, Ling Feng will not be able to win


    "That''s quite dangerous."


    "This time with Cao Cao''s contest, the victory or defeat lies in Ling Feng, he is the key to this battle."


    Jia Xu said: "therefore, we have to go south and withdraw in the direction of Luyang county. We are familiar with the topography of Luyang county. We can go around in circles and detour to Luyang county. "


    "In addition, we can also arrange an army to solve the Cao army in Luyang county first. Now that the news of Cao''s soldiers seizing Luyang county has come back, we will also withdraw from Lushan


    "Under such a premise, Cao Jun in Luyang county has lost its value. Therefore, we can arrange for one person to lead the army. First, we should take a small path to withdraw, and then we should cooperate with Lu Guili to win the Cao army stationed in Luyang county. "


    Jia Zhizhu is in charge of it and puts forward some suggestions.


    Gan Ning thought for a while, then said: "Mr. Jia means that now, we just need to beat around the bush with Cao Cao."


    "Yes


    Jia Xu answered directly.


    Jia Xu has always been very patient in fighting and will not change his plans at will.


    Zhang Xiu said: "according to Mr. Jia''s plan, the next step is to withdraw from Lushan. However, even if we withdraw from Lushan, we must pay attention to it. We can''t withdraw directly, otherwise we will be easily entangled by Cao Jun. "


    Chen Zhi said: "Lord, the Sirius camp, the commander of the last general, is a cavalry, coming and going like the wind. At last, he asked to go down the mountain first to break through the encirclement, and to make a detour to harass him, so as to share the pressure of the Lord and help him to break through the encirclement. "


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu refused directly.


    For Zhang Xiu, the cavalry is very precious and can''t be used to break through the encirclement.


    Zhang Xiu had a general plan in his mind. After careful consideration, he said, "this time, we will break through the encirclement by combining the virtual and the real. I think about it like this


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the plan.


    He didn''t find it very difficult to break through.


    It''s easy.


    After hearing this, Jia Xu made a deduction with his beard under his jaw, and agreed: "Cao Cao is suspicious, especially when Cao Cao is in the master''s hands. After several losses, he is hard to judge in the face of false and real schemes. The Lord''s plan is feasible. "


    Pang Tong nodded in agreement.


    All agreed.


    Zhang Xiu saw that everyone had no opinion, so she arranged it immediately.


    Soldiers on the mountain, assemble quickly.


    All the soldiers began to pack up and prepare for the breakthrough. When Zhang Xiu was actively preparing, Cao''s soldiers, who were shouting at the foot of the mountain, stopped shouting and quickly withdrew to the barracks.


    Xia Houyuan mobilized his soldiers and stationed them in all directions of Lushan, waiting for Zhang Xiu to come down from the mountain.


    He believed that Zhang Xiu would break through.


    This is Cao Jun''s chance.


    Xia Houyuan was waiting at the foot of the mountain, and Cao Cao, Guo Jia and others all came to the foot of the mountain.


    Cao Jun, be ready.


    Cao Cao''s face looked expectant. He was very patient and waited quietly. He looked at Lushan Mountain, which was not lofty and steep. There was a faint light in his eyes. He continued to eat shriveled in the hands of Zhang Xiu, the heart is very depressed.


    When he thought about Cao Cao, that is, when Chen Gong and others rebelled, most of Yanzhou fell, and Cao Cao was extremely angry at that time.


    Most of the time, Cao Cao is in good luck.


    But Cao Cao here in Zhang Xiu, successive losses, even his own nephew were Zhang Xiu caught.


    He wants revenge, too!


    Cao Cao sat on a grass stump and waited quietly.


    Time goes by little.


    An hour passes quietly.Two hours, slip away in the middle of irritability.


    By this time, it was almost noon, and the warm sun was shining high after the Spring Festival. Even if it''s cold in spring, I don''t feel cold when I''m in the sun. On the contrary, I feel comfortable when I''m in the sun.


    Cao Cao was not happy.


    Cao Cao wanted to beat Zhang Xiu earlier. But the more he hoped, the more unhappy he was. Towards noon, he just had a few mouthfuls of rice, so he stopped eating and continued to wait at the foot of the mountain.


    Cao ang also sat beside Cao Cao. He was full of revenge, but he wanted to kill him immediately.


    Unfortunately, that''s not realistic.


    We have to wait.


    In the afternoon, the sun rose and it was warmer.


    At this time, Cao Cao and his generals were already impatient. It''s been such a long time, but I haven''t seen Zhang Xiu''s action. Everyone is very anxious.


    In anxiety, time passes again.


    More than an hour passed.


    In the afternoon, Cao Cao''s generals were all impatient. Some generals have come to Cao Cao''s front to fight, ready to attack Lushan. For them, in the case of Luyang County, Zhang Xiu''s army must be in turmoil.


    At this time, it is not difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    So, one by one, they asked for a strong attack.


    Cao Cao looked around the people, glanced at the generals under his command, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu thief, he is very cunning. You can think of it. He won''t? Is Zhang Xiu not worried about the news of the fall of Luyang county? "


    "Why is Zhang Xiu calm?"


    "If he doesn''t come down the mountain, he just wants to make you impatient and let you take the initiative to attack the mountain. Although Lushan is not a steep place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, it is a mountain at least. "


    "It''s not easy for us to attack Lushan."


    "In the case that Luyang county has fallen, it is extremely unwise for us to give up our advantages and attack Lushan Mountain, which is tantamount to giving up our own advantages and attacking the other''s advantages with our own shortcomings."


    "Even if the other side''s morale is turbulent, it is not an opportunity to attack."


    Cao Cao''s eyes were sharp, and said: "Zhang Xiu has patience, don''t I have patience? Procrastination is not harmful to us. On the contrary, it is harmful to Zhang Xiu. So wait. "


    Although Cao Cao was also impatient.


    But Cao Cao didn''t show the slightest impatience. Instead, he waited patiently. He and Zhang Xiu''s several confrontations, have seen Zhang Xiu''s fierce, not impulsive.


    Once the impulse, it may fall into the trap of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao preferred to be steady.


    As long as he can beat Zhang Xiu and wait a little longer, he doesn''t think it''s anything.


    When people heard Cao Cao''s words, they didn''t say much, just kept waiting. Even Cao Cao, as the commander in chief, has patience to wait. What else can they say?


    Guo Jia sat beside Cao Cao with a look of approval on his face.


    Before that, Cao Cao despised and despised Zhang Xiu, and even slightly despised her. However, the consequence of belittling the enemy is to lose the general at the expense of his troops. Now that Cao Cao adjusted his mind, Guo Jia was no longer worried.


    Cao Jun will win this battle.


    This is Guo Jia''s judgment.


    Although Cao Jun people are upset, but in the irritability, time is still a little bit of the passage.


    In the twinkling of an eye, half an hour passed.


    Although it is still early, the weather in early spring is very dark, and the sun has entered the clouds. Without the sun''s shining, it''s colder. The cold wind makes people shiver.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a sentry came running fast.


    The sentinel came to Cao Cao''s side and reported: "Qi Zhikong, Zhang Xiu''s army, began to go out on a large scale. Now they are gathering to the south of Lushan, and they are very likely to break through the encirclement to the south of Lushan. "


    "Lord, please fight


    As soon as Xia Houyuan heard this, he was in high spirits and immediately prepared to fight.

 Chapter 171

    XiaHouYuan was at the foot of Lushan Mountain. After waiting for almost a day, his patience was almost gone. In his heart, he wanted to kill Zhang Xiu immediately and take revenge.


    As soon as he heard that Zhang Xiu was going to retreat, he got excited.


    This is his chance.


    He wants to fight back.


    "Lord, please fight


    "Lord, the last general asked to lead the troops to stop Zhang Xiu."


    ¡­¡­


    All the generals spoke.


    Everyone''s fighting spirit, in this moment, becomes high spirited.


    Waiting for a long time, finally waiting for Zhang Xiu.


    Everyone knows the hatred between Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao. Zhang Xiu humiliates Cao Cao and Cao ang, and tries every means to deal with Cao Anmin, which has been deeply resented by Cao Cao.


    What''s more, there is Cao ang.


    This is Cao''s future successor. If you take Zhang Xiu, you can not only get Cao Cao''s appreciation, but also Cao Ang''s favor, so everyone hopes to fight.


    This is a golden opportunity.


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed. Subconsciously, he thought that Zhang Xiu''s breakthrough from Nanshan might be a cover up. He deliberately attracted his troops to go there and then evacuated from another place.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s strategy of attacking the West from the East.


    Cao Cao has attached great importance to Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t dare to be slighted.


    Cao Lu Nan Cao wanted to fight in front of Zhang Sheng. What if Zhang Xiu is bluffing? Zhang Xiu is a very cunning thief. "


    When they heard this, they were dumbfounded.


    Not to mention, with Zhang Xiu''s temperament, they think it is possible to make such an arrangement.


    As soon as Xu Chu turned his eyes, he took the initiative to say, "Lord, I only need 3000 talents. At the end, the general led his troops to the south of Lushan. He did not want to take Zhang Xiu, but only wanted to hold down her army. As long as Zhang Xiu really breaks through the encirclement from the south of Lushan, he will stop Zhang Xiu and wait for the Lord to lead the army to arrive. "


    As a general of Cao Cao''s army, Xu Chu also wanted to make contributions.


    Xu Chu was born in a big family. Although he was not very proficient in military strategy, he was also extremely shrewd.


    He knows how to judge the situation.


    In particular, today''s Xu Chu is only a captain in the army. His foundation is not deep. After all, he has not long been subordinated to Cao Cao.


    In terms of martial arts, Cao Cao''s martial arts are slightly better than his own. He is not the best in the military. When it comes to strategy and the ability to lead troops, Xia Houyuan, Yu Jin and others are proficient in the art of war, and he can''t match them.


    When it comes to kinship and estrangement, Xia Houdun, Cao Ren and Cao Hong are all Cao Cao''s relatives and true confidants, and they are far inferior to them.


    In fact, he doesn''t have much sense of existence in the army, and he has a real foothold.


    Because of this, Xu Chu took the initiative to fight and wanted to make military contributions. What he can show now is that he dares to fight and kill, which is the positioning Xu Chu gives himself.


    "Not right!"


    Cao Cao answered directly.


    Xu Chu said, "Lord, why not?"


    Cao Cao appreciated Xu Chu very much, with a smile on his face, and explained: "three thousand elites can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s army. Once you fight with his army, you may lose a lot in a very short time. When I lead the army to arrive, Zhang Xiu will be pursued when he withdraws. But what if he goes back to the mountain? "


    "Ah


    Xu Chu was surprised and said, "I''m afraid it''s impossible. If Luyang county is lost, will Zhang Xiu not withdraw it?"


    Cao Cao said: "when Luyang county falls, Zhang Xiu is sure to leave Lushan. But what''s the difference between leaving earlier and leaving later? "


    Xu Chu said, "if you know your mistake, please punish me."


    Cao Cao waved his hand and did not scold Xu Chu. When others saw this, they did not ask for a fight.


    Guo Jia''s eyes fell on the sentry and asked, "how powerful is the army going down the mountain?"


    "Very big!"


    The sentry replied.


    Guo Jia once again said: "can you have banners, big flags and so on."


    "Yes!"


    The sentry answered again.


    Guo Jia said, "are you sure that the other side is going south with a lot of publicity?"


    "Yes


    The sentry answered again.


    Guo Jia asked three questions in a row. He said with a smile, "my Lord, according to my humble position, the army going down to the south of Lushan Mountain is absolutely false. Zhang Xiu deliberately made such a momentum in order to attract our attention. He thought that Xu Chu could take 3000 troops to garrison. He doesn''t fight Zhang Xiu''s army. He just needs to sit at the foot of the mountain. "


    After listening to Guo Jia''s words, Cao Cao''s heart was open.


    At the moment, we can''t tell the difference between the true and the false.


    The most difficult to judge.


    After thinking about it, Cao Cao finally chose to believe Guo Jia''s judgment and said, "Xu Chu, you are stationed at the foot of the south mountain of Lushan. Remember not to fight at will.""Here it is


    When Xu Chu heard the speech, he held his fist.


    He looked at Guo Jiashi and looked grateful. If it had not been for Guo Jia''s suggestion, he would not have had a chance to go. In particular, even Guo Jia believed that going down the mountain from the South was a bluff, so it was really possible that there were no soldiers going down the mountain.


    He mobilized the soldiers and left quickly.


    After Xu Chu left, about two quarters of an hour later, Xu Chu and his soldiers arrived at the foot of the south of Lushan. Xu Chu ordered to garrison at the foot of the mountain, and then looked at the situation on the mountain from a distance.


    At the moment, there are still banners flying in the woods on the mountain, and the big flags are shaking. But a lot of careful, found that the situation on the mountain is just like that, has not changed.


    This is an obvious bluff!


    Xu Chu made a judgment.


    When Xu Chu was stationed at the foot of the mountain, he did not take any action.


    On Cao Cao''s side, with his army, he was still waiting at the foot of the north mountain. While he was waiting, suddenly, another sentry came running fast.


    When he came to Cao Cao''s side, the sentinel fell on his knees and reported: "Qi Zhi Sikong, on the east side of Lushan Mountain, found the movement of Zhang Xiu''s army. Although there is no big flag flying, no flag shaking, but the birds in the mountains, all of them fly up, circling in the air. It is the presence of a large number of troops in the forest that leads to this situation, "he concluded


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he stood up.


    If so.


    If Zhang Xiu did use the tactics of attacking the West and the East, she would have escaped if Cao Cao''s army had gone to the south of Lushan Mountain without prior judgment.


    Cao Cao ordered: "XiaHouYuan!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Xia Houyuan hugged his fist and answered.


    At this moment, Xia Houyuan is full of fighting spirit.


    Cao Cao ordered: "mobilize all the troops to the east of Lushan. It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to evacuate from Lushan safely. Now, we are going to fight against Zhang Xiu and completely defeat her. "


    "Here it is


    XiaHouYuan immediately went to order.


    Soon the army set out.


    Cao Cao followed the army to the east of Lushan.


    After a long time, they came to the Far East of Lushan Mountain, and then lay in ambush quietly, ready to wait for Zhang Xiu''s army to come down.


    Once Zhang Xiu comes, she will fall into the ambush.


    While Cao Cao was waiting, birds were still hovering in the air in the forest to the east of Lushan Mountain.


    But Zhang Xiu''s army has not gone down yet.


    At the same time, in the mountains to the south of Lushan, banners fluttered and big flags swayed. There are indeed Zhang Xiu''s troops in this mountain forest, and all of Zhang Xiu''s main forces are here.


    "Newspaper!"


    A sentinel, run fast.


    Sentry came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "my Lord, all Cao Cao''s troops are going to the east of Lushan. At the foot of the mountain to the south of Lushan, there are only more than 3000 Cao soldiers. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu has a bright smile on her face.


    "Down the mountain!"


    Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated and gave the order to get out of the mountain. The soldiers under his command, still in full swing, carrying flags and banners, quickly moved down the mountain.


    After they got out of the mountain, they threw away their banners and banners, pulled out their weapons, and went straight to Xu Chu''s position.


    Xu Chu''s troops were stationed less than a mile from the foot of the mountain.


    The distance is not far.


    In particular, commander Chen Dao''s Sirius camp has gone down the mountain first. The horses are running at full speed and faster.


    The main force led by Zhang Xiu followed closely.


    In accordance with Jia Xu''s plan, Zhang Xiu first arranged for soldiers to carry banners and big flags in the south of Lushan Mountain, bluffing and bluffing, which made Cao Cao mistakenly think that this was a false action.


    Then, a small number of soldiers were arranged to go to the east of Lushan Mountain to specially shake the numbers, so that the birds perched in the forest rose and circled, causing the sign that Zhang Xiu''s army descended from the east of Lushan Mountain.


    The final choice is to go down from the south of Lushan.


    The layout is virtual and real!


    Hard to figure out!

 Chapter 172

    Xu Chu was stationed at the foot of the southern mountain of Lushan, but he didn''t pay much attention to it. In his opinion, since the Zhang Xiu army here is bluffing, it is impossible to fight down the mountain. He has no pressure at all.


    Xu Chu found a big tree, backed by the trunk, and closed his eyes.


    He is open-minded.


    If you don''t have a chance to make contributions, just ignore it.


    Suddenly, Xu Chu''s ears moved, as if he felt the vibration of the ground. Suddenly, Xu Chu''s face changed slightly, as if he thought of something. He just lies down, ears on the ground, listening carefully.


    A moment later, Xu Chu''s eyes widened. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Lushan. His mouth was a little dry and his expression was eager. He stood up and roared: "be on guard!"


    Try to hiss and roar, in a flash.


    He heard the hoof of the horse.


    Moreover, the sound of horse''s hooves came from the foot of Lushan Mountain. It was very close to them and was killing them.


    With the order of Xu Chu, 3000 Cao soldiers quickly reorganized the army. But at the next moment, hundreds of steps away, a cavalry came quickly.


    It''s Chen''s Sirius camp.


    Chen Dao led the cavalry of Sirius battalion down the mountain first, and then went straight to the position where Xu Chu led his troops. When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than 100 steps, Chen Zhi ordered: "prepare for the shotgun!"


    In an instant, one by one soldier took out the short gun from the pocket of the horse''s belly, leaned back, swung the short gun and threw it out.


    Under the power bonus of horse sprint, the throwing speed and power of shotgun are great.


    In particular, the speed of the horse was fast. When the shotgun was thrown out, the distance from Xu Chu''s position was less than 60 steps. In such a range, the killing power of short guns is extremely terrible.


    "Whew! Whew


    One short gun after another broke through the air, with a sharp howling sound, and crossed arcs in the air. In a flash, he fell into the camp of Xu Chu''s soldiers.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sharp short gun pierced into the body of Cao''s soldiers.


    One by one injured soldiers immediately screamed and fell to the ground to wail.


    Cao''s formation was in chaos.


    "Withdraw!"


    Seeing the cavalry approaching, Xu Chu did not dare to delay any longer, and immediately ordered to retreat. Under the attack of cavalry, he could not resist at all. Even though he was good at martial arts, his strength was negligible among thousands of troops.


    To stay where you are is to die.


    "Retreat, retreat into the woods in the distance."


    Xu Chu gave a loud order.


    On the flat and wide official road, if infantry can''t form an array, it will only become the target of cavalry.


    Only when you enter the woods can you get rid of the cavalry.


    Unfortunately, their speed is a step late. As soon as CaO was ready to retreat, the cavalry of the Sirius camp was approaching. In an instant, they were killed in the formation of Cao''s soldiers.


    The projection of short guns made Cao''s soldiers in disorder, and they could no longer organize effective obstruction. Even though these Cao''s soldiers were elite, they were vulnerable to the attack of cavalry of Sirius camp.


    A steel knife fell and struck the soldiers under Xu Chu''s command. The sharp blade fell and took away lives. One by one, Cao''s soldiers kept falling down.


    On the battlefield, there is a one-sided slaughter.


    Xu Chu fled quickly. He looked back and saw the soldiers killed. His eyes were splitting and his face was full of pain. He suddenly some regret, regret to take the initiative to resist Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, there will be no big defeat.


    He even regretted that when he got to the foot of Lushan Mountain, he thought that Zhang Xiu would not go down the mountain, so he gave up the garrison and allowed the soldiers to rest at will. As soon as the cavalry appeared, he could not resist the attack of the cavalry.


    If early in the morning, Xu Chu would line up.


    Even if cavalry attack, it is impossible to break the formation easily.


    Xu Chu is very clear that the other side will not love to fight, must be crisp fighting. Because once the war is delayed, the news will soon spread to Cao Cao''s ears. When Cao Cao''s army is killed, Zhang Xiu will not escape.


    Unfortunately, now, Xu Chu does not even have the opportunity to delay.


    He fled into the forest, got rid of the cover of cavalry, turned around and quickly went to the position where Cao Cao was.


    Get out, get out of here


    As Xu Chu retreated, he cried out.


    Although Cao''s soldiers retreated with Xu Chu, there were only a few hundred left.


    The rest of them are in the middle of killing.


    Chen Dao took the Sirius camp to fight. After several rounds of fighting, he defeated Xu Chu''s army. He no longer continued to cover up and kill, but waited for Zhang Xiu''s army to go down the mountain. After the two armies met, they quickly retreated.


    The army marched away, leaving the battlefield easily.


    After Zhang Xiu was far away from Lushan, she could carry out her next plan. She called Ganning and said, "Ganning, I''ll go around with Cao Cao and delay. You will lead 3000 elite soldiers to Luyang county first, and take the Cao army stationed in Luyang county. ""Here it is


    Gan Ning responded directly.


    For Ganning, he preferred fighting on the battlefield.


    With Zhang Xiu''s side, now it''s a round trip, nothing to do. On the contrary, there is still a chance to fight in Luyang county. He quickly mobilized 3000 elite soldiers, left the team and went to Luyang county first.


    Zhang Xiu was stationed in the same place for a temporary rest.


    When Zhang Xiu was recuperating, Xu Chu came to the east foot of Lushan Mountain with the defeated soldiers and joined Cao Cao. Now Cao Cao is still ambushing here, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s army to come out of the mountain.


    He waited for a long time, only to see birds circling on the mountain, but not Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Seeing that Xu Chu was in a mess, Cao Cao suddenly felt worried and asked, "Xu Chu, what''s the matter?"


    Xu Chu knelt down on one knee, pleaded guilty and said: "report back to Sikong, and take 3000 soldiers to garrison in the south of Lushan. Zhang Xiu''s army and cavalry suddenly came out. Under the cover and killing of cavalry, the 3000 soldiers led by the last general were unable to retreat, and the whole army was defeated. There are only less than 700 soldiers left in the army, and the losses are huge. "


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face suddenly turned pale.


    His eyes were cold and sharp.


    In a short period of half an hour, less than 700 soldiers were left. He lost nearly one tenth of his troops.


    Cao Cao''s troops lost a lot in continuous losses.


    Under the constant losses, Cao Cao could hardly bear it.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and asked again, "are you sure that all Zhang Xiu''s troops have gone down from the south of Lushan?"


    "Yes


    Xu Chu replied solemnly.


    What''s more, Xu Chu''s previous remarks were very particular. He said directly that Zhang Xiu led the army and cavalry to attack together. Under such circumstances, he could not resist.


    He ignored the situation that the soldiers could not cope with the situation.


    Cao Cao''s face was gloomy, and his eyes turned and fell on the hillside in the east of Lushan County.


    There are still birds circling.


    With a wave of his sleeve, Cao Cao ordered the sentry to sneak into the mountain forest to investigate the situation in the mountains.


    Soon after, the sentry returned.


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the situation in the mountains?"


    Sentinel report: "report back to Sikong, when we entered the mountain, we found that there were a few soldiers in the mountain, constantly shaking the trees to disturb the birds'' habitat. As soon as we entered, they all evacuated. "


    Cao Cao''s face twitched when he heard the speech.


    He raised his hand to cover his chest and felt pain in his heart.


    Miscalculation!


    He did not expect that the birds hovering in the air were caused by a small number of soldiers. At this moment, even Guo Jia, who was standing beside Cao Cao, changed his face again and again.


    He knew that the evacuation of Zhang Xiu was a matter of fact, which made it difficult for people to distinguish the true from the false. But he still did not infer accurately, so that Zhang Xiu calmly withdrew from the mountain, but also annihilated more than 2000 Cao Jun.


    It''s a big loss.


    Guo Jia Baoquan said: "Lord, I didn''t understand Zhang Xiu''s intention in my humble position. Please surrender."


    Cao Cao shook his head and said with a wry smile, "it''s no wonder you''re here. That''s all. It''s so far. It''s meaningless to regret again. What we need to do now is to remedy it. Mobilize the army, we immediately chase and kill Zhang Xiu. We still have the advantage of banning. As long as Zhang Xiu retreats to Luyang County, we still have a chance. "


    For Cao Cao, he still has a chance.


    As long as the war is not over, he will not lose. As long as he wins the last battle, he will win it.


    He only looked at the final result.

 Chapter 173

    Cao Cao looked at Xu Chu kneeling on the ground and asked him to get up. So far, it''s meaningless to punish Xu Chu again. It''s just to cheer up and strive for the next victory.


    Guo Jia arched his hand and said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Cao Cao shook his head, wry smile, said: "what is wise? It''s all calculated by Zhang Xiu. He''s brilliant. "


    But Guo Jia didn''t agree with Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao''s response is indeed not bad. Guo Jia''s greatest admiration for Cao Cao was that he was not flustered, reckless and calm when he encountered things. In particular, when Cao Cao encountered difficulties, he would not shrink back. On the contrary, he became more courageous and undaunted.


    This is a very important quality.


    Some people are strong when they are strong.


    Some people are more brave than others.


    There are also some people who have been defeated many times, but still can be defeated many times.


    But there is also a kind of person who is wise and wise when the wind is favorable. Once you fall into failure and difficulties, you will no longer be wise and calm.


    It''s unbearable frustration.


    For Guo Jia, Cao Cao can adjust his mind no matter what the situation is. Whether it is adversity or prosperity, Cao Cao can face it with an ordinary mind. This is the most important thing.


    In terms of birth, Cao Cao''s eunuch family is far worse than Yuan Shao''s.


    Guo Jia once worked for Yuan Shao under his command, but when he saw Yuan Shao, he gave himself up when he was in trouble, was complacent when he was in good times, and was more headstrong.


    It''s hard for such a person to achieve great things.


    Guo Jia digs off the topic and continues: "the Lord wants to cover up Zhang Xiu''s army, but he also needs to remember to be careful of Zhang Xiu''s ambush. Zhang Xiu is familiar with the topography of Luyang County, but we are not. It''s not far from Lushan to Luyang county. We just need to chase Zhang Xiu, but we don''t have to fight with her. "


    Cao Cao said: "filial piety is reasonable!"


    Now Cao and Zhang are afraid of fighting for Zhang Tianxiu.


    "Let''s go!"


    Cao Cao mobilized the army and set out directly.


    He did not take charge of Lushan any more, leaving only a group of soldiers here.


    When Cao Cao and his soldiers pursued Zhang Xiu, he first sent many sentinels to inquire about the information in front of him and find out the terrain so as to avoid being ambushed.


    When Cao Cao pursued Zhang Xiu, he was about five or six miles away.


    Zhang Xiu did not go directly to Luyang county.


    He circled around in the north of Luyang County, and Cao Cao kept chasing him. Although he kept a certain distance from Zhang Xiu, he did not catch up with Zhang Xiu from the beginning to the end. He circled around and was very tired.


    When both sides chased and fled, Luyang county was closed.


    County town.


    Yu Jin was in the military camp in the city. He captured Luyang county. He did not make any changes, but still let lugui serve as the county magistrate. Yu Jin only controls the army and defense of the county, and he doesn''t care about the rest.


    If the army is in hand, it will have enough control over the situation.


    County government, in the study.


    Lu guizheng is dealing with government affairs.


    While lugui was busy, there was a knock outside the room.


    But his housekeeper came.


    Lu GUI''s housekeeper, a distant relative of Lu GUI, is deeply trusted by Lu GUI. A lot of things are handled by the housekeeper. After the housekeeper entered, he reported: "my Lord, I just received a letter. Please have a look."


    Letters, sealed in red paint.


    Lu GUI took the letter and examined it in his hand. He saw that the red paint and the letter were intact. Then he opened the letter and read it. After reading the letter, he had a smile on his face.


    The letter was sent by Zhang Xiu.


    In the letter, Zhang Xiu''s achievements in Lushan are described in detail, Cao''s losses are mentioned, and the news that Ganning has brought 3000 elite soldiers to Luyang county is also mentioned. Finally, Lu GUI is entrusted to cooperate with Ganning to win the ban while preserving himself.


    There are detailed plans in the letter.


    There are two options for this plan.


    First, let Lu GUI fight to capture the thief and the king, and win Yu ban first. If Rugui can subdue the ban himself, that''s the best. Second, when Ganning''s army arrived, lugui led people to open the gate to welcome Ganning to attack Yujin.


    These are two plans.


    Lu GUI read the letter carefully again and burned it. There was a look of thought on his face.


    The first scheme mentioned in the letter is not feasible at all.


    Because after Yu Jin arrived in Luyang County, he always lived in the military camp and did not go to other places at all. Under such a premise, it is impossible to control the ban.


    In particular, Lu GUI once arranged for people to go to the military camp to invite Yu ban, saying that he was going to hold a banquet in the county government to help Yu ban clean up the dust.


    But Yu Jin refused.


    Lu GUI has no access to Yu Jin, or there is no way to let Yu Jin leave the barracks. Because lugui has something to report, that is to report directly to the barracks.The cautious prohibition made lugui helpless.


    "What shall we do?"


    Lu GUI murmured to himself. After pondering it over for a while, he came up with a plan. The premise of this strategy is to open the gate of the city and let the army of Ganning enter the city according to the second strategy set by Zhang Xiu.


    This plan is more feasible.


    After all, Lu GUI has a certain strength in the city. It''s not difficult to open the gate.


    Lu GUI in the heart arrives to settle, command a way: "prepare carriage, this officer goes to barracks."


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper has to make arrangements immediately.


    Lu GUI changed his robes, wore a Jinxian crown, dressed neatly, and strode out of the county government. He boarded the carriage and quickly came to the outside of the barracks, so that the soldiers went to report.


    Shortly after, the soldier returned and waved to Rugui to enter.


    Lu GUI came several times and was familiar with the layout of the barracks. He soon came to the Chinese army tent and saluted Yu Jin respectfully.


    Yu Jin said, "what''s the matter with the magistrate of Lu county?"


    Lu GUI replied, "when I was in the county government, I got the news from the people below that there were rumors in the city that Cao Jun bullied the people and was tyrannical. He also said that Zhang Xiu''s army loved the people like children and was very good to the people. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yu Jin heard the words and swore.


    This is a deliberate rumor. His soldiers, even the army, have never left. How can they be so overbearing?


    Lu GUI looked at his nose, nose and heart, and continued: "I know it''s gossip, because after the general entered the city, he always restrained the soldiers. Under such a premise, there are rumors in the city, and it is determined that there are rumors. "


    As a matter of fact, Yu ban did not commit any crime.


    Yu ban captured Luyang county. The only difference from before was that supervision was strengthened, and the rest remained unchanged.


    Yu Jin asked, "what do you think?"


    Lu GUI slightly arched his back and said: "I think that there is no fire without wind. It must be Zhang Xiu who incites the wind and ignites the fire in the city. Then there will be rumors all of a sudden."


    "So I suggest that the general send more soldiers to patrol the city, and then investigate the people who are talking about it."


    "As long as you find someone spreading rumors, you will be directly charged."


    "Only in this way can the security of Luyang county be guaranteed," Lu said


    "Good! Good


    When Yu Jin heard Lu GUI''s words, his face showed approval.


    In his opinion, Lu GUI was really on Cao Cao''s side when he said such words. If not, lugui would not have made such a proposal.


    He thought, that''s normal.


    Lu GUI has turned to Cao Cao and betrayed Zhang Xiu. In today''s situation, there is only one way to go to the black, only to follow Cao Cao, otherwise it will be thankless at both ends.


    Lugui asked, "did the general agree?"


    "Agreed."


    Yu Jin answered directly.


    For him, lugui has a heart for this, and he wants to encourage it. Yu Jin''s eyes turned, and then continued: "your performance is very good. When the LORD takes Zhang Xiu, I will tell him and ask for credit for you."


    "General Xie!"


    Lu GUI''s face was full of expectation.


    He gave thanks.


    The reason why he did so was to paralyze himself. According to Zhang Xiu''s plan, after Ganning arrived, Lu GUI had to take action to let Ganning enter the army.


    But Rugui has no reason to mobilize the forbidden forces. Through what he said just now, he convinced Yu Jin that someone was making trouble and that there was Zhang Xiu''s spy in the city.


    He has a reason.


    Zhang ganxiu, there is a message to deliver, he can say. In this way, we can mobilize Yujin''s army to resist and divert Yujin''s attention.


    So that he and Ganning can work together inside and outside.


    This is lugui''s plan.


    Yu Jin waved his hand and said, "magistrate Lu, is there anything else?"


    "No!"


    Lu GUI shakes his head and answers.


    Yu Jin said, "well, go ahead."


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    Lu GUI was ordered to turn around and walk out of the camp. He stood at the gate of the barracks, looking at the blue sky, with a smile on his face.


    Soon!


    He is about to recover his identity. When Gan Ning enters the city, he and Gan Ning join hands to defeat Yu Jin, and then they can recover their identity and no longer bear the name of a traitor.

 Chapter 174

    After Lu GUI returned to the county government, in the evening, he received the news from Ganning outside the city. The army led by Gan Ning has gone to the north gate of Luyang county and is temporarily hidden.


    Ganning came the news that the next arrangement was to let lugui open the gate according to the original plan.


    Lu GUI burned the letter, so he arranged it immediately.


    It''s not long. It''s completely dark. In Luyang County, the noise went away and everything became quiet. All the people were shut up and would not go out any more.


    The soldiers in the city, who were forbidden, continued to patrol.


    Lu GUI quietly left the county government, quietly with Luyang soldiers, to the north of the city. He arrived near the north city with his soldiers. Instead of acting immediately, he hid in the dark and waited quietly.


    It wasn''t long. In the south of Luyang County, there was a cry of killing, but someone came out to attack Cao''s soldiers.


    This is a man arranged by Lu GUI who deliberately attacked Cao Jun. With the sound of shouting and fighting, all the Cao soldiers in other places gathered quickly in the south of the city, and even some of the troops stationed in the city went to the south of the city.


    Lu GUI with people out of the dark, straight to the north gate of the city.


    Under his command, there are nearly 1000 soldiers, all loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    After Yu Jin arrived in Luyang County, these soldiers were hidden and never showed up. Now lugui is going to launch a counter offensive. It is only then that lugui transfers all his troops out and moves quickly.


    Team to the North City, Lu GUI ordered: "up, open the gate."


    Soldiers, move fast.


    More than a thousand soldiers rushed forward, with the force of lightning, and when they arrived at the city gate, they killed all the Cao soldiers stationed at the city gate. Then they lit a torch and opened the city gate.


    On the tower.


    Garrison Cao Jun Xiaowei see this, life thunder drum, the news spread.


    Then, he personally led the soldiers down the castle, ready to suppress the situation.


    Rao is so, but it''s too late.


    Ganning has been hiding outside the city. Seeing the torches burning inside the city and the gate wide open, he knows that lugui is acting. He took the soldiers out and went straight to the gate of the city.


    Ganning''s speed is very fast. In a short time, he has brought his soldiers into the city to join lugui.


    At this time, Cao Jun went downstairs.


    Zhang Qing, the commander of Cao Jun, was a valiant general under Yu Jin''s command. He is more than eight feet long. He is big and strong. His jaw is full of whiskers. He is very powerful.


    Zhang Qing noticed that Lu GUI''s eyes were cold, and he said coldly: "well, you Lu GUI, you are obedient to Lord Sikong, but you are capricious and betray him. Damn you


    When he spoke, he shook his long gun and pointed to Lu GUI''s direction.


    Lu GUI raised his head and threw it to the ground with a voice: "have I ever been capricious? The reason why they submit to the ban is only to act according to orders. Today, none of you who have violated Nanyang County can escape. You have to be killed. "


    "To die!"


    Zhang Qing''s color cools down.


    He took a Xuanhua axe and rushed to lugui.


    Catch the thief and the king.


    His intention is to take Lu GUI first, and then clean up the thieves who enter the city.


    Ganning''s eyes were full of war. He stepped out and stood in front of Lu GUI. As soon as he stepped, he directly met Zhang Qing. His speed is extremely fast, in a twinkling of an eye, then arrived Zhang Qing opposite, the war knife immediately cuts out.


    "Dang!"


    The blade of the sword was cut on Xuanhua axe. In a flash, sparks were all around.


    "Hum!"


    Under the impact of fierce force, Zhang Qing''s Xuanhua axe is constantly shaking. The anti shock force acts on Zhang Qing''s palm, making the palm numb, and the tiger''s mouth has a bit of tearing pain.


    What a powerful force!


    Zhang Qing''s heart gave birth to such a feeling.


    But before he had time to respond, Gan Ning''s blade on Xuanhua axe turned sharply, sliced out flat, and sliced toward Zhang Qing''s palm.


    In the fight just now, Zhang Qing''s palm was numb, but Gan Ning was not affected.


    He had the absolute upper hand.


    Zhang Qing''s face changed greatly as he cut off the blade. His palms were numb and weak, so he had to step back to avoid Ganning''s blade.


    As soon as he retreated, Ganning immediately followed.


    Ganning strides forward, shortens the distance between him and Zhang Qing, turns to his side, swings the knife, and cuts off his head.


    When the blade was cut, there was a sharp howling.


    Its momentum is appalling.


    Zhang Qing can''t avoid it, but he clenches Xuanhua''s axe and moves the overlord to lift the cauldron. The blade of the axe is upward to resist the attack of Gan Ning.


    "Dang!"


    The impact of weapons is very harsh.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Zhang Qing''s internal organs were all shocked at this moment, and his Qi and blood surged up. As soon as his throat was sweet, a mouthful of blood came out immediately.


    "Kick! KickZhang Qing couldn''t help retreating, his face turned pale, and he couldn''t keep his figure.


    Zhang Qing retreats and Gan Ning catches up quickly. He took advantage of Zhang Qing''s retreat, killed Zhang Qing in front of him and slashed him.


    Zhang Qingyan watched the blade fall, but he couldn''t resist it.


    There was a touch of fear in his eyes.


    "Yes


    Sharp blade, across Zhang Qing''s left shoulder, into the bone, continue to slant down. On Zhang Qing''s chest, he left a foot long wound.


    The wound was more than an inch deep. The flesh and blood were flying. The red blood kept flowing and dyed Zhang Qing''s shoulder red. It was extremely frightening.


    The shrill scream came from Zhang Qing''s mouth.


    "Plop!"


    He was unstable and fell to the ground. At the moment when Zhang Qing fell to the ground, Gan Ning approached again, swung his sword and thrust it in.


    "No!"


    Zhang Qing yelled.


    His eyes were full of ferocity. He wanted to struggle to escape, but before he could react, Gan Ning''s knife fell down and the tip of it reached his chest.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp blade, pierce into the skin.


    The next moment, it penetrated into the heart, smashed the heart.


    Red blood, gurgling out.


    Zhang Qing''s body twitched twice, and then there was no breath.


    Gan Ning pulled out the blade, threw the bloody blade, pointed to the Cao soldiers in front, and ordered: "kill!"


    He''s got soldiers under his command. He''s going to rush.


    No one can stop them.


    With the strength of Gan Ning and Lu GUI, it is only a short time to solve the Cao army stationed in the north of the city. But as soon as the war here was over, Cao''s troops stationed in other schools came to kill one after another.


    The previous battle drum, get the news out.


    Cao''s soldiers quickly assembled.


    But when they got to the north of the city and joined the battlefield, they couldn''t resist the attack of Ganning. They were constantly exterminated.


    When he was forbidden to come, Cao Jun suffered countless casualties.


    The battlefield is a one-sided slaughter.


    Yu Jin''s eyes fell on Lu GUI. He saw Zhang Xiu''s army fighting in the city, and then saw the soldiers under his command. They were all dead. He was angry and yelled: "Lu GUI, you should die!"


    Lu GUI said: "Yujin, you should die. Today, you can''t escape from Luyang county. "


    Yu Jin was indignant and didn''t talk much, so he let the soldiers under his command kill him.


    Yu Jin also came out with a gun.


    Although Gan Ning didn''t know Yu Jin, he knew his identity through the dialogue just now. According to the information obtained, Yu Jin is also Cao Cao''s confidant general. If you win Yu Jin, you will be able to inflict heavy damage on Cao''s army.


    Gan Ning was no longer in love with war. He gave up Cao''s soldiers, turned around, and went directly to kill Yu.


    You can''t avoid it, you can''t avoid it.


    He is also a valiant general under Cao Cao. Although Yu Jin''s martial arts were not as good as those of Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xia Houdun and others, he was also outstanding in shooting. At the moment when Gan Ning approached, Yu Jin''s gun barrel trembled and the tip of the gun swayed rapidly, flashing a little cold in the air.


    Countless murders enveloped Ganning.


    He''s going to kill Ganning.


    He wanted Lu GUI to die rather than live.


    The soldiers under his command, because of lugui''s betrayal, suffered countless casualties. All this is caused by Lu GUI, so he wants Lu GUI to pay for it.

 Chapter 175

    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Gan Ning saw the big gun coming from the shrouded area, and saw a light in his eyes. He swung his sword and chopped it down.


    "Ding!"


    The sharp blade hit the point of the spear exactly. Even though it is forbidden to shake the gun, the tip of the gun flickers one after another, creating a visual illusion.


    But for him, it''s a trick of a three-year-old urchin. Even with his eyes closed, he can judge the position of the tip of the forbidden gun.


    "It''s not polite to come but not go. Take my knife!"


    Gan Ning side body, swung a knife then cut down. The knife was raised from the right side of the body and crossed an arc in the air, accumulating enough strength. When the blade falls down, the blade breaks through the air and produces a sharp howling sound, which is extremely harsh.


    In a flash, the knife reached Yu Jin''s head.


    Yu Ban''s face was startled and he held up his gun.


    "Dang!"


    The blade and the barrel of the gun collided, making a huge impact sound.


    Yu Jin stabilized his figure, his eyes became dignified, and his martial arts skills were very strong. The blow just now made his arms feel slightly numb.


    "Come again!"


    Gan Ning killed the rising and drank in a low voice.


    The sabre swung again. The sabre came out like the wind, and the moves were magnificent. When the sword fell down again, Yu Jin felt that he was covered by the sword and had no chance to escape.


    He had no choice but to hold the gun in both hands.


    "Dang!"


    Two weapons, hit again.


    Under the impact of strength, Yu Jin could not stabilize his body and stepped back. Now his face changed slightly. Because Gan Ning''s strength just now is a little more heavy than before, and it is stronger than before.


    Yu Jin quickly stabilized himself, intending to prepare for a counterattack. But the moment he had just stabilized his figure, before he could make a move, Gan Ning''s knife cut off again.


    The light of the sword is sharp and fierce.


    Yu Jin even felt as if he was going to be split in two.


    He was afraid to retreat.


    Once you retreat, you will be attacked. He could only hold the gun in his hand and resist. He made the posture of holding the tripod, legs crossed on the ground, hands like holding a long gun, holding a long gun to resist.


    "Dang!"


    The third impact.


    This time, Yu Jin took two steps back.


    There was even a slight pain in his arms and a little numbness in the mouth of his palm. Ganning had no chance to fight back in front of him.


    Because the other side moves, like a torrent of water, continuous. He is always resisting, always defending, and can''t find a chance to break the move.


    Ganning''s attack was too intensive. Under continuous attack, Yujin was suppressed to death.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of crashing is heard all the time.


    Yu Jin kept retreating, his face had gradually turned red, and his arms were in pain. However, Gan Ning seems to never know fatigue in general, is still fast brandishing the sword to chop.


    The sharp light of the sword is shining in the air, gorgeous and full of lethality, which makes people fear unconsciously.


    Gan Ning goes forward step by step.


    His face was full of war, and he was ready to kill.


    Yu Jin''s martial arts are not as good as Gan Ning''s. Just like this, he can''t get rid of Gan Ning''s attack all the time. Yu Jin is not weak and can resist constantly, so he has always been the passive one.


    He even blocked Gan Ning''s fifteen sabres, and his eyes were covered with blood. His arms were numb, as if they were not his own.


    The whole person, close to the off force.


    All of a sudden, it is a knife light cut down again. The knife fell down like the Milky way, and its light was gorgeous.


    Gan Ning''s knife, burst out a very strong force.


    He kept on attacking, one knife stronger than the other, stronger and stronger. In the continuous attack, now cut the strongest one.


    "Kill


    He is fierce and fierce, and pours on the forbidden.


    In front of Gan Ning''s knife, Yu Jin couldn''t avoid it and raised his gun to resist. But the blade was cut on the barrel of the gun. Under the impact of fierce force, in an instant, Yu Jin''s Qi and blood churned, and his mouth spewed out a mouthful of blood.


    The big gun in his hand was knocked out.


    Yu Jin''s legs were soft, and he collapsed on the ground. At this moment, his arms had completely lost their intuition, as if they were not his own.


    Gan Ning face, but full of hearty expression.


    Cheerfulness!


    It''s so refreshing.


    His contest with Yu Jin was simple, broad and direct, but he was extremely comfortable and showed his momentum and prestige. Gan Ning stepped forward and came to Yu Jin. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers came forward and took Yu Jin.


    He roared: "if you are arrested, you will not be killed. There is no amnesty for those who resist. "


    Seeing this, Cao''s soldiers were in great disorder.


    Previously, under the leadership of Yu Jin, Cao''s soldiers arrived at the north gate, joined the battlefield, quickly attacked, and fought with the soldiers brought by Gan Ning.Yu Jin''s soldiers were also the elite of Cao''s army.


    These soldiers have no advantage in the number of troops. However, even though they were at a disadvantage, they never retreated and fled to resist the attack from the army under the command of Ganning.


    Unfortunately, Yu Jin was captured.


    As Yu Jin was captured, Cao''s soldiers lost the morale of resistance. Some of the soldiers fled quickly, some surrendered quickly, and some chose to fight to the death, but even the soldiers who fought to the death were just fighting to the last ditch.


    Half an hour later, the war ended.


    All the troops under Yu Jin''s command, except those who fled, have been completely captured.


    Together with Lu GUI, Ganning quickly reorganized the army and captured the four gates. In a short time, he regained control of Luyang county.


    Towards the early hours of the morning, everything was busy.


    At this time, the results of the war were also counted.


    In this war, Gan Ning''s soldiers only damaged more than 400 people, but killed more than 1300 Cao soldiers, captured more than 1200, and some Cao soldiers fled.


    In the barracks.


    Ganning and lugui took their seats.


    When Gan Ning looked at Lu GUI, he praised: "this time, the magistrate of Lu county has made a great contribution to capture and exterminate Lu GUI. If the magistrate of Lu had not opened the north gate first, my troops would not have entered the city and defeated Yu Jin. I will report your credit to the Lord truthfully. I expect you will be rewarded after the war. "


    Lu GUI said with a smile: "general Gan, I''ve done everything in accordance with the instructions of the prefect. All this is a clever plan of the Lord, and it is also a brave killing of the enemy by general Gan. I''m just a minor achievement, not worth mentioning. "


    In front of Ganning, he is very low-key.


    After all, Gan Ning is Zhang Xiu''s absolute confidant.


    Such people have to have a good relationship.


    Gan Ning laughed and continued: "the magistrate of Lu county is modest. He would have dealt with things. One is one, two is two, seeking truth from facts. I don''t want to say much. You''ve worked hard all night. Go back to the county government to have a rest early. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Lugui didn''t stay, so he got up and left.


    Gan Ning didn''t rest. He told the soldiers to bring Yu Jin.


    Yu Jin is a strong general in Cao''s army and a confidant of Cao Cao. If you can summon Yu Jin, it will be a great blow to Cao Jun, so Gan Ning wants to summon Yu Jin overnight.


    Soon, Yu Jin was brought by soldiers.


    Today, Yu Jin''s expression has recovered a lot, no longer as before, and his arm has recovered some strength, no longer numb and weak.


    Previously, he was attacked by Gan Ning continuously, and his Qi and blood were churning, which was very uncomfortable.


    Now, it has recovered a little bit.


    But his chest clothes, still stained with blood, clothes showing dark purple blood clots, is very decadent.


    Gan Ning said: "it''s a delusion for Cao Cao to take over Nanyang County again. There is no doubt that Cao Cao will be defeated in this war. I will see that you have some martial arts skills and talents. Are you willing to submit to my lord? "


    His eyes were fixed on Gan Ning, deep in his eyes, with a faint light. He wanted to kill Gan Ning for revenge.


    He hated Rugui even more.


    This two faced villain betrayed him and Sikong. At the earliest time, lugui surrendered directly, looking like he was thinking about it. In the twinkling of an eye, Lu GUI rebelled and made him a prisoner.


    This man should be killed!


    Yu Jinxin read a turn, said: "Gan Ning, want me to surrender, it is not impossible, but I have a condition."


    Gan Ning''s eyes narrowed, with a touch of expectation, asked: "what conditions?"


    Yu Jin is also quite capable.


    If such a person is obedient, it will be a great blow to Cao Cao and help Zhang Xiu, so Gan Ning is looking forward to it.


    Yu Jin said directly: "if I kill Lu GUI, I will submit to Zhang Xiu."


    "You''re kidding me


    When Ganning heard this, his face became gloomy. He didn''t get used to Yu Jin, so he got up and went to Yu Jin, raised his leg and kicked out.


    "Bang!"


    A dull noise came out.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Yu Jin snorted, then fell back to the ground with a look of pain.

 Chapter 176

    "How dare you tease me? I want to die


    Although Gan Ning thought that Yu Jin''s martial arts were good, and he was Cao Cao''s lineage, he was not Zhang Xiu, and had no idea of being a courteous and virtuous corporal.


    He is just a subordinate of Zhang Xiu.


    That''s all.


    Yu Jin made him unhappy. If he wanted to make fun of him, he would make a direct move.


    Let''s clean up.


    Yu Jin took a deep breath, endured the pain, choked his neck, and continued: "Gan Ning, you want to surrender me, it''s impossible. I was born a man of Cao Sikong and died a ghost of Cao Sikong. I would rather die than surrender. "


    "There''s backbone!"


    Gan Ning exclaimed.


    Yu Jin held up his head with a look of pride on his face.


    Gan Ning stood in front of ban and rubbed his fist. He raised his big fist and said with a smile, "you are a loyal minister in ban. You have backbone. I admire you very much. Of course, I''ll help you. "


    With that, he swung his fist and smashed it down.


    "Bang! Bang! Bang


    Dull sound of impact, constantly sounded.


    The sound is heard all the time.


    In the twinkling of an eye, there was a scream of prohibition. Under Gan Ning''s fists and kicks, Yu Jin was in great pain and suffered from Gan Ning''s violent beating all over his body.


    It was a long time before Gan Ning stopped.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Gan Ning stopped, gasped and sighed: "Damn it, it''s really tiring to hit people with random fists. It''s more tiring than fighting with weapons on the battlefield."


    "You villain!"


    Yu Jin lay on the ground, making a sound in his mouth.


    There was a strong sense of hatred and fear in his eyes. Under the beating of Gan Ning, he was in pain all over his body. With a little movement, he pulled his body and felt very uncomfortable.


    His handsome cheek also suffered.


    His eyes were purple and blue, his eyes were red and swollen, his eyes were covered with blood, and his cheeks were swollen like a pig''s head. The corner of his mouth is full of blood.


    All over the body, no one is intact.


    Gan Ning appreciated Yu Jin''s tragedy and said, "I''m a villain. What''s the matter? Don''t think you are Cao Cao''s person. You are very powerful. You can do whatever you want. I''ll tell you, you''re just a prisoner now. Put away your pride. Otherwise, I will be rude to you. "


    Yu Jin took a look at Gan Ning and said nothing.


    He did not dare to provoke Ganning again.


    For fear of being beaten again.


    Yu Jin''s heart even gave birth to some ideas. In case Gan Ning would surrender again, he would just surrender to protect himself. When he found the chance, he defected and went back to Cao Cao, but Gan Ning didn''t surrender again.


    "Come on!" Gan Ning said


    At the first order, some soldiers entered the camp and saluted.


    Gan Ning said: "take Yu ban down and take good care of it."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to escort Yu Jin away.


    Gan Ning stayed in the camp, picked up the paper and pen, and began to write the battle report of Luyang county. His task is to win the Luyang County, now captured in prison, successfully completed the task.


    After the war report was finished, Gan Ning sealed the letter into the letter, and then ordered to call the sentinel who was in charge of contacting Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu left Lushan and went in circles between Lushan and Luyang County, intending to delay time.


    His whereabouts are not fixed.


    Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu specially arranged for sentinel to tell Ganning his whereabouts, so that Ganning could report the news.


    Gan Ning gave the letter to the sentry and told him to send it out overnight.


    After the sentry left, Gan Ning lay down to rest.


    The sentinel left the county overnight. Although in the past, the soldiers who were forbidden to leave Luyang County, now they don''t know the location of Cao Cao and can only go to the direction of Lushan.


    Zhang Xiu''s sentinel, clear where Zhang Xiu is, so the night on the road. When it was dark, he came to the camp of Zhang Xiu''s army and asked to see her all night.


    Jia Xu received the letter from the sentinel. After checking it, he was convinced.


    Luyang County recovered, and the plan went one step further.


    He saw that it was almost dawn, and it was time for Zhang Xiu''s morning exercise, so he didn''t report the news immediately and waited quietly.


    Two quarters of an hour passed quietly.


    The eastern sky, has a touch of fish belly white, the day began to dawn.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early and does morning exercises. Jia Xu doesn''t disturb her when she does. After Zhang Xiu finishes her morning exercises, she delivers a letter and says, "Lord, Ganning wrote a letter. He took Cao Jun of Luyang county and captured Cao Jun alive. In this war, Gan Ning killed more than 1000 Cao troops and captured more than 1000 Cao troops. We have destroyed nearly 3000 Cao troops. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help crying out.


    It''s so exhilarating.


    At the earliest time, Gan Ning and Chen Dao joined hands to capture Cao Anmin and destroy nearly 3000 Cao troops. Then, after Cao Cao arrived at Lushan, he killed part of Cao''s army through a fight at the foot of the mountain.Now we have destroyed three thousand Cao troops.


    Cao Cao''s superiority in military strength has disappeared, almost equal to that of Zhang Xiu.


    In addition, Cao Cao first damaged Cao Anmin, and now he has been damaged by the ban. He has continuously damaged two generals, which is also a huge blow to Cao Cao.


    On the one hand, Zhang Xiu began to take advantage.


    The situation has turned around.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "since Luyang county is attached, there''s no need to go around and stay in place. If Cao Cao kills us, we will stand in the way. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Xude ordered to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the rising sun in the East and saw a light in her eyes. The war between him and Cao Cao has come to an end.


    If Cao Cao knew that Yu Jin was captured, he would withdraw immediately, and Zhang Xiu would not pursue him. Because Ling Feng''s news has not been sent back, even if the cover up, it is difficult to win.


    If Cao Cao''s army continues to kill, when Cao Cao''s army arrives, Zhang Xiu will stay in place and set up camp to resist, so as to delay time.


    As long as the news of Ling Feng comes back, Zhang Xiu can counterattack.


    At that time, it will not be easy for Cao Cao to retreat. Because of the lack of food, Cao Jun will soon be in trouble.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    The troops were stationed in place, battalions and defences were arranged.


    As time goes by, the warm spring sun gradually rises. Towards noon, six miles behind Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao''s army appeared on a large scale.


    Cao Cao catches up again.


    Cao Cao knew that Luyang county had fallen, and Zhang Xiu''s grain and grass could not be delivered for the time being. Under such a premise, even if we fight a war of attrition with Zhang Xiu, it is also cost-effective for Cao Cao.


    What''s more, Luyang county is under the control of Cao Cao. As long as Zhang Xiu is close to Luyang County, Yu Jin can lead soldiers to kill her and attack Zhang Xiu with Cao Cao.


    The situation is extremely favorable to Cao Cao.


    Therefore, even if Cao Cao didn''t catch up with Zhang Xiu, he had high morale.


    As the army was on its way, Cao Cao''s soldiers, who had escaped from Luyang County, finally found Cao Cao''s army. A centurion, the leader, found Xia Houyuan and reported the news of Luyang county.


    When Xia Houyuan learned about it, his face changed greatly.


    Immediately, Xia Houyuan led the centurion to Cao Cao''s side. He bowed himself and said, "my Lord, it''s not good. Luyang County fell and was captured after the defeat of the army. "


    Cao Cao''s face suddenly changed.


    Yujin occupied Luyang county. How could he be defeated?


    Cao Cao''s eyes fell on the centurion on his knees and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The centurion followed Yu Jin. Knowing the situation, he saw with his own eyes Lu GUI''s rebellion and that Yu Jin was captured alive by Gan Ning. He quickly said, "tell Lord Sikong that it''s Lu GUI, the county magistrate who surrendered. He''s fickle."


    "Last night, an army of Zhang Xiu arrived outside the city."


    "Lu GUI led people to open the gate and welcome Zhang Xiu''s army into the city. General Yu Jin led the troops to stop and was captured alive. All the soldiers in the city either died in battle, or surrendered, or escaped from Luyang County just like their humble posts. "


    The centurion gave a quick account of the situation.


    "Asshole, trash!"


    Cao Cao was very angry.


    Luyang county is the most crucial link in his plan. He did not expect that Yu Jin lost Luyang county and was captured alive. This means that all of Cao Cao''s advantages will disappear at this moment.

 Chapter 177

    Before that, Cao Cao also wanted to take advantage of the ban to occupy Luyang County, defeat Zhang Xiu, and occupy Nanyang County.


    Now, everything is in vain.


    Rao is Cao Cao with good psychological quality and unstable mentality. He swore at the centurion kneeling in front of him and even kicked his feet. He almost lost control of himself and wanted to kill the centurion.


    After half a sound, Cao Cao regained his anger and calmed down. He said in a deep voice, "go down, don''t get in the way here."


    "Here it is


    The centurion was ordered to step down, and he was satisfied that he would not be punished.


    Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and calmed down: "Luyang county is lost. We don''t have the means to restrain Zhang Xiu. What do you suggest, fengxiao? "


    At the moment, Guo Jia is also pondering.


    The situation is not optimistic.


    After thinking about it for a moment, he had a plan and said, "there are three strategies for the Lord to choose."


    Cao Cao said, "say it!"


    Guo Jia said: "the best way to be humble is to withdraw from Nanyang and stop fighting with Zhang Xiu."


    On hearing this, Cao Cao frowned.


    Guo Jia continued: "we led a large army into Nanyang County. Now we are only in Luyang County, the northernmost part of Nanyang County. Before we go deep into Nanyang County, we will lose our troops and lose our strength."


    "It will be very difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu."


    "Under the current situation, the best strategy is to withdraw from Nanyang County. The enemy of this war will be avenged later. "


    Guo Jia said: "it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. For the time being, the Lord transferred his troops and dealt with Lv Bu and Yuan Shu before he thought about Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao shook his head.


    He didn''t want to quit Nanyang County because he couldn''t swallow the bad breath.


    At the beginning, Cao Cao was not so angry when the Chen palace and Lu Bu rebelled in Yanzhou. Because Cao Cao himself knew that it was he who killed LV boshe first and then Yanzhou celebrities such as bianrang, which made Chen Gong cold.


    The king chooses the minister, the minister also chooses the king.


    Chen Gong didn''t recognize Cao Cao until he betrayed him.


    Rao is so, Cao Cao still appreciate Chen Gong, think Chen Gong is a talented person. Of course, Cao Cao knows that he has done something wrong, but he may not be willing to admit it. He does not regret what has happened, right or wrong, and he will not apologize.


    On the contrary, this time, in Zhang Xiu''s body, he suffered many losses and failures, so he was unwilling to leave.


    His heart, very unwilling.


    Cao Cao clenched his fist and asked, "what''s the best policy?"


    Guo Jia said: "the best strategy is to gather all the strength to catch up with Zhang Xiu as quickly as possible and fight against her. At present, our side has damaged Cao Anmin and Yu Jin, and nearly ten thousand soldiers. But in terms of the number of people, we are not inferior to Zhang Xiu. We have the strength of the first World War. "


    "Before, Zhang Xiu had been beating around the bush with us."


    "The reason why he did this, now think about it carefully, is that Zhang Xiu is planning Luyang County, so he has been around, delaying our time close to Luyang County, so as to win Luyang county."


    "Now, Zhang Xiu is seizing Luyang county again. Judging from his humble position, he will not retreat or beat around the Bush again. He will definitely fight against us and try to defeat us."


    Guo Jia said: "we will fight Zhang Xiu if we kill her directly. As long as Zhang Xiu''s army is defeated, the Lord can still win the battle. "


    Cao Cao said, "if we fail, we will damage our troops again, right?"


    "Yes


    Guo Jia replied: "Zhang Xiu, in particular, is not easy to be compared with. It''s not easy to beat him. So, I think it''s the best policy. "


    Cao Cao thought about it in his heart, but he still didn''t make a statement. He continued: "what''s the worst way?"


    Guo Jia said: "the worst way to be humble is to make peace with Zhang Xiu."


    "Although Zhang Xiu only occupied Nanyang County, she had the strength of a marquis. Once the Lord withdraws, when we attack Xuzhou and other places in the future, if Zhang Xiu attacks our rear, we will be in a very unfavorable situation. "


    "So, the worst way is to make friends with Zhang Xiu."


    "With the strength of the Lord, he condescended to make peace with Zhang Xiu, resolved the conflicts, and then returned to Yanzhou."


    "That''s the next policy."


    Guo Jia said: "the humble position does not recommend adopting this strategy, even if Zhang Xiu is quite powerful. However, the Lord served the emperor to order the princes to take the position of Sikong. There is no need to make peace with Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao said, "it''s impossible to make peace. In this battle, Zhang Xiu will never give up. "


    Guo Jia immediately understood.


    What Cao Cao wants is the best policy.


    We need to fight Zhang Xiu again.


    Xia Houyuan stood aside. After listening to Cao Cao, he immediately said, "Lord, I will go to send an order immediately. The army advanced at full speed and rushed to the place where Zhang Xiu was stationed. "


    "Good!"Cao Cao nodded.


    After XiaHouYuan retreated, Cao Cao had a look of expectation on his face, but also a trace of uneasiness in his eyes. He said, "fengxiao, do you think this battle can be won?"


    Guo Jia said, "what do you think?"


    Instead of answering, he asked Cao Cao.


    He has full confidence in Cao Cao.


    He believed in Cao Cao''s judgment, and more in Cao Cao''s courage and determination.


    No matter win or lose, he followed Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao raised his head and said: "we will win this battle! Although Zhang Xiu''s thieves are powerful, Zhang Xiu''s foundation is not deep after all. We are sure to win this battle. "


    Guo Jia also nodded solemnly.


    The army set out and went on.


    After the army set out, they quickly approached the camp site of Zhang Xiu.


    When Xia Houyuan was on his way, he received the news from the rear sentry. As soon as Xia Houyuan heard the news, his face changed greatly, but he also congratulated himself and quickly came to Cao Cao''s side.


    Xia Houyuan reported: "Lord, just after receiving the news from the rear, Zhang Xiu arranged a cavalry to bypass the bridge, touch our rear and attack our granary. Fortunately, Zihe, who was stationed in the granary, responded properly and defeated Zhang Xiu''s army. Otherwise, the situation is unimaginable. "


    Zihe is Cao Chun''s word.


    Cao Chun is Cao Ren''s brother, commander Cao Cao''s tiger and leopard riding. However, this time, Cao Chun did not follow Cao Cao to the front line, but sat in the rear to guard the granary for him.


    When Cao Cao heard the news reported by Xia Houyuan, he was in a depressed mood. Suddenly he was overjoyed and couldn''t help laughing.


    Xia Houyuan said: "why is my lord laughing?"


    Cao Cao said: "Zihe killed one of Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, which is to win us a chance to fight against Zhang Xiu. Isn''t such a good thing worth laughing at? "


    He is seldom happy.


    This period of time and Zhang Xiu fighting, everywhere constrained, everywhere affected, nothing is smooth.


    Cao Anmin is defeated!


    Xu Chu is defeated!


    Yujin is defeated!


    There is no progress in his army. Even if he pursues Zhang Xiu, he can only follow her.


    Everything is not going well.


    For Cao Cao, Cao Chun''s keeping the granary in the rear is excellent news.


    As soon as the words changed, Cao Cao said, "what''s the result of this war?"


    Xia Houyuan replied: "there is no detailed information for the time being. He only knows that Zihe defeated Zhang Xiu''s army who went to attack. At the moment, there is no problem with our granary. "


    Cao Cao said, "it doesn''t matter."


    His eyes narrowed and he said with a smile: "now we have the advantage. When we get to the front of Zhang Xiu''s army, we will make a good mockery of Zhang Xiu. He has always thought that it''s too late. This time, what can he say? "


    Xia Houyuan said: "my Lord is wise!"


    He bowed down and soon came to the front army and ordered the soldiers to go at full speed.

 Chapter 178

    Zhang Xiu military camp.


    The barracks had been completely set up and the fortifications were all ready.


    Gan Ning was busy all the time. After everything was done, he was able to stop and take a breath. It''s really necessary to prepare for defense at the moment. Gan would rather not delay.


    As soon as the fortifications were finished in Ganning, the sentinel returned and reported that Cao Jun was coming quickly.


    When Gan Ning learned of this, he immediately went to the big account of the Chinese army.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning reported: "Lord, Cao Jun has really come."


    Zhang Xiu had an expectant look in her eyes and said: "the news of Luyang county must have reached Cao Cao''s ears. Under such circumstances, he still insists on launching attacks. It seems that he has been defeated continuously, which makes him feel depressed and unwilling to retreat. "


    Ganning said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "Cao Cao does not retreat. This is also our chance to defeat Cao Cao."


    "Step on it! Step on


    The sound of hasty steps came from outside.


    But Jia Xu came.


    He hurried into the camp with a dignified look on his face.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "what''s the matter?"


    Jia Xu sighed and replied, "my Lord, Ling Feng has come back from the front line. His plan of raiding Cao Cao''s rear failed, and only more than 200 soldiers came back. "


    The smile on Zhang Xiu''s face suddenly froze.


    For Zhang Xiu, whether Ling Feng wins or not is the most crucial link. As long as Ling Feng wins, he will be sure to win when he confronts with Cao Cao.


    However, Ling Feng''s failure in this way means that Zhang Xiu has lost the shortcut to defeat Cao Cao.


    The impact is enormous.


    Although Zhang Xiu said that he was lost, he soon adjusted his mind.


    The other side is Cao Cao.


    If you beat Cao easily, is it still Cao Cao? Even today''s Cao Cao, whose strength is not strong, is only limited to Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and is not the great devil sweeping the world.


    It''s not easy to deal with such Cao Cao.


    After Zhang Xiu''s state of mind recovered, her face returned to normal. He looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, Ling Feng failed to attack Cao Cao''s granary. What do you suggest?"


    When Jia Xu saw that Zhang Xiu had returned to normal in a short time, he could not help admiring her.


    Zhang Xiu is very human!


    He lived most of his life and met a lot of people, especially when he was about to win. It is unbearable for many people to win but lose just one last step.


    Zhang Xiu can adjust. He thinks it''s good.


    At Zhang Xiu''s age, it''s not easy to have such a heart and a city.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard with a smile and said slowly: "in fact, it''s not difficult to solve the current predicament. If Ling Feng can''t attack once, he will attack again. "


    "Under normal circumstances, since Ling Feng is defeated, it is impossible to attack again."


    "If you take it by surprise and send someone to attack Cao Cao''s granary again, you will surely get a wonderful effect. Moreover, Cao''s soldiers stationed in the granary will relax their vigilance after an attack, and they don''t think they will be attacked again. "


    Jia Xu said: "if you fight again, you will win!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was also suddenly enlightened and said, "what you said is wonderful."


    He agreed with Jia Xu''s analysis.


    Moreover, Jia Xu''s thinking is really different from that of ordinary people, and he can find a new way.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "where is Ling Feng?"


    Jia Xu said, "it''s just outside the camp."


    Zhang Xiu said, "bring people in."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu got the order and arranged it immediately.


    Not long after, Ling Feng entered the camp. He had some injuries, but none of them were fatal. After he stood still, he knelt down on the ground with a plop, kowtowed and said, "please punish me for my incompetence."


    Zhang xiudao said: "if I punish you, can I take Cao Cao''s granary? You are at war with the Cao army. Tell us about the granary of the Cao army. Who is responsible for guarding it, and how many soldiers are there? "


    Ling Feng said: "in return to my Lord, Cao Chun, the man stationed in Cao''s granary, has about 2000 soldiers. The last general fought with Cao Chun, and at least more than 500 people were lost under his command. The rest of his troops would not exceed 1500. "


    Zhang Xiu''s cheek twitched slightly, and there was a sense of helplessness in her eyes.


    Cao Chun lost more than 500 people.


    Ling Feng took Cao chun to attack, but not less than 2000 people, but only more than 200 soldiers came back.


    The loss is too great.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Cao Chun has only two thousand people. Your troops are no less than him. But in this battle, you bring back only two hundred people."


    Ling Feng suddenly dumb.


    He didn''t want to lose.


    But Cao Chun is really powerful. He is far superior to him in both martial arts and military command. He can''t win."Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    Ling Feng got up and stepped down, but he was glad that he had not been punished.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Ling Feng''s back, but she shakes her head in her heart. His original intention is to continue to let Ling Feng lead, after all, Ling Feng is an old subordinate. He didn''t want to marginalize his old subordinates and wanted to give them heavy responsibilities.


    But the problem is that they are not successful and marginalized, and there is nothing they can do.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "come, please come here."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a while, Chen Dao entered the camp.


    Zhang Xiu said directly about Ling Feng''s defeat and said: "the first attack failed. I''m going to carry out the second attack. This time, you lead the troops, you take all the cavalry of Sirius camp, led by Ling Feng, and take the path. With 1500 soldiers stationed in the camp, are you sure you will win? "


    Chen said: "since Ling Feng is here, is it the last general who will command the battle, or is Ling Feng in charge of commanding?"


    After all, Ling Feng is a veteran.


    Although Chen Dao is one of the generals in the army, it''s not easy to arrange, so Zhang Xiu has to be clear.


    Zhang Xiu flashed a fierce color in her eyes and said: "you are in full command of this war, he is only responsible for leading the way. If Ling Feng interferes in the war without authorization, you can do it first and then do it. "


    Chen was overjoyed and said, "please rest assured that the mission will be completed. No victory, no withdrawal! "


    Chen Dao has enough confidence.


    He has a thousand excellent cavalry under his command. Under such circumstances, if he can''t attack with cavalry, he will be a failure.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "originally, I was going to go by myself. But now Cao Cao''s army is coming, I have to face Cao Cao. Otherwise, in my absence, Cao Cao might be suspicious. You have to win. "


    "Please rest assured that we will complete the task," Chen said


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "take the cavalry of Sirius camp and leave the camp. First go to Luyang County, retreat for a distance, and then make a detour to avoid being found by Cao Cao''s Sentinel. "


    Chen Dao said, "I understand your humble position."


    With that, Chen Dao left.


    Shortly after Chen Zhi left, some soldiers reported that Cao Cao''s army was less than three miles away from the barracks.


    Zhang Xiu put on his helmet and went out of the Chinese Army''s tent to wait at the gate of the camp. All the soldiers in the army were in their positions and formed their own formations, making a posture of confrontation.


    Not long after that, a wriggling black line appeared on the official road in the distance. As the distance gets closer, you can see the figure of Cao Jun clearly.


    A big flag is flying in the wind.


    There is the sound of drums and drums, soaring into the sky.


    Cao Cao is full of momentum, to work hard to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing Cao''s style, Zhang Xiu knew that Cao Cao''s plan was to make a quick decision.


    Zhang Xiu will not cooperate.


    Zhang Xiu in a short period of time, will not meet, will choose to defend. Although Zhang Xiu relied on continuous victory to shorten the gap with Cao Cao, the difference between the two sides is not much, but Zhang Xiu''s inside information is not as deep as Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops are only 20000, but Cao Cao''s troops are more than that. In Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Yuzhou and other places, Cao Cao''s troops are stationed.


    Even if Cao Cao lost 30000 elite soldiers, he would not hurt his muscles and bones and would soon recover. But Zhang Xiu is different. If Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao meet each other, even if they win in the end, they will lose a lot.


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is to wait for the news of Chen Dao''s victory to come back, Cao Cao''s people will be in turmoil, and it will not be too late to attack Cao Cao.


    The distance is still getting closer.


    Soon, Cao Cao''s army was stationed 150 paces away from Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    Cao Cao looked calm and raised his hand.


    In an instant, Cao''s soldiers stopped shouting, and no one beat the drum again. The scene suddenly quieted down.


    Everything is silent.


    Now Cao Cao''s face, with a faint smile. When he got the news from the rear, he was sure. With a wave of his hand, a soldier came up with a tea table and two seats and stopped 80 steps away from Zhang Xiuying.


    Tea table and seats, quickly placed.


    Cao Cao got off his horse and strode forward. Dian Wei followed him closely to protect Cao Cao''s safety. Cao Cao went to the tea table, lifted his robe and sat down. He said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, do you dare to come forward for a talk?"


    Zhang Xiu saw Cao Cao''s action and looked at Dian Wei beside Cao Cao, but she didn''t think what Cao Cao wanted. He did not refuse, immediately go out, Ganning is with Zhang Xiu''s side, protect Zhang Xiu''s safety.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu came to Cao Cao. He lifted his robe and sat down casually.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu is only one foot away from Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Duke Cao knows my archery and martial arts. You are 80 steps away from the camp. Are you not afraid to be shot by me? Even now, you are only one foot away from me, are you not afraid of my violence? If you have Ganning to control Dianwei, I will kill you as easily as I can. "

 Chapter 179

    Cao Cao returned to the front of the battle and ordered: "XiaHouYuan, send orders to attack!"


    "Here it is


    XiaHouYuan was ordered to go down.


    Cao''s soldiers had been ready for a long time. Some archers swept the array to suppress them, and some long spearmen came forward to attack Zhang Xiu''s barracks. When Cao''s army began to attack, Gan Ning also dispatched troops to fight against it.


    The two armies began to fight.


    Cao Cao looked at the front of the battlefield, leisurely said: "fengxiao, Zhang Xiu this son, really extraordinary. Now, he is a young tiger. If we wait a while, I''m afraid he will really roar all over the world. "


    Guo Jia said: "if the Lord suppresses Zhang Xiu in this battle, he will have no chance."


    Cao Cao said with a smile: "I hope so!"


    After a pause, Cao Cao continued: "just now, I told Zhang Xiu the news of Cao Chun''s victory, intending to use the news to suppress Zhang Xiu''s arrogance."


    "I didn''t expect that he had already arranged the counter measures."


    "Zhang Xiu arranged to go to Xudu to publicize our defeat in Luyang county. Such an arrangement is obviously a kind of Machiavellian plan. It is to use the power of the central government to restrain me. "


    Cao Cao said with emotion: "Zhang Xiu''s strategy is really not simple."


    Guo Jia saw a light in his eyes and said, "the LORD said that if the news of the bad war comes back, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    "Zhang Xiu''s move is exquisite."


    "But it doesn''t have much impact on us now. Because the strategy of despicable duty is to make a quick decision. Even if we pay a big price, we will defeat Zhang Xiu today. "


    Guo Jia said: "if Zhang Xiu is solved first, even if there are waves in the rear, it doesn''t matter."


    Cao Cao said, "what filial piety says is true."


    They chatted and looked at the battlefield, with an expectant look on their faces.


    At the moment, the soldiers of Cao army, fearless of life and death, braved the rain of arrows, were quickly closing up and rushing to the gate of the camp.


    Zhang Xiu is in charge and commands the soldiers to resist.


    Archers, catapults, have been quickly into the battlefield, to block Cao''s offensive.


    Rao is so, Cao Jun is still approaching.


    Zhang Xiu saw in her eyes that Cao Cao was determined to take him, so she would attack like crazy.


    This war is bound to be fierce.


    When Cao Cao''s army approached the gate of the camp, Zhang Xiu mobilized a long spear to resist. At the same time, Zhang Xiu also conveyed the order to the catapult soldiers, let the catapult soldiers drop Tribulus terrestris.


    The order was given, and the catapults were all changed, and the jars were loaded on the catapults.


    There is no seal on the jar. It''s full of Tribulus terrestris.


    "Shoot!"


    Captain in charge, order quickly.


    "Bang Dang! Bang


    During the operation of the catapults, the pots were thrown out one by one. All of them were thrown in 150 steps. Almost every pot fell on the same line.


    It was done on purpose.


    One hundred and fifty steps. This is the distance set by Zhang Xiu.


    These jars containing Tribulus terrestris were very thin. When they fell to the ground, they were smashed to pieces, even on the heads of Cao''s soldiers.


    Inside the Tribulus terrestris, Hua La scattered out, scattered on the ground.


    Many Cao soldiers were rushing forward, stepping on the Tribulus terrestris with one foot, and they were immediately attacked. As the Tribulus terrestris fell, at the gate of the camp, a lot of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers picked up pottery pots and threw them out, but the Tribulus terrestris was still inside.


    Countless Tribulus terrestris fell, to a certain extent, delayed Cao''s offensive.


    Cao Cao soon learned the news,


    he gave a cold smile.


    In a large-scale war, such a move is actually very petty, because there are too many soldiers attacking. In the end, such a way can not stop the army from attacking.


    It''s like a stone falling on the surface of the water. When it falls, it sets off a splash. In fact, in an instant, it tends to be calm.


    Because there are too many people fighting.


    Zhang Xiu is calm and self-contained, his catapult soldiers, after throwing two rounds of Tribulus terrestris, change the throwing weapon again. Although there are still pots on the catapult, each pot mouth is blocked with rotten cloth towel, and all rotten cloth towels have been soaked with fire oil.


    With the operation of the catapult, the pots were thrown out.


    This is a random shot.


    No longer limited to a certain location.


    The earthenware pots are falling in 150 steps outside the camp.


    As soon as the pot fell to the ground, it broke.


    Some of the tung oil spilled on Cao''s soldiers, and some of it broke on the ground. But without exception, there is a lot of tung oil on the ground.


    For three consecutive rounds, the camp was covered with fire oil.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that tung oil had been ejected, she immediately let the archer fire the rocket.Tung oil is flammable and must be ignited by an open fire.


    When a burning rocket takes off, crosses an arc in the air, lands on the ground, or hits Cao''s soldiers with fire oil, it burns quickly.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    The fire was burning with smoke.


    One by one, fire snakes scurry around, spreading to the surrounding areas, and the outside of the camp gradually turns into a sea of fire.


    Cao''s soldiers, who were attacking, were blocked.


    Cao''s soldiers, who were attacked by the fire, did not dare to move forward. Instead, they kept retreating and struggled to run back. Once the fire oil burns, it is difficult to put out, but all the soldiers who are on fire are running around in panic.


    Cao Cao looked at the scene and frowned.


    There''s something strange going on.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "according to the normal situation, fengxiao is only suitable for pouring fire oil down the city tower, because it will not affect itself. Zhang Xiu uses fire attack outside the camp. Our soldiers are reduced to firemen. If the soldiers rush forward and enter his camp, the fire will spread and the camp will burn. He can''t bear it. "


    Guo Jia said: "since Zhang Xiu has made arrangements, she may be on guard."


    Cao Cao said: "watch the change quietly."


    Immediately, Cao Cao looked at XiaHouYuan and asked him to postpone the attack. At the same time, he asked all the soldiers who had not attacked to withdraw. Although it is easy for a soldier who does not attack to delay, it is quite difficult for a soldier who is caught in a sea of fire.


    Because of the obstruction of Tribulus terrestris.


    At a distance of 150 steps from the camp, the ground was covered with iron halberds that had been scattered before.


    This forms a line of separation.


    As soon as they arrived at the place full of Tribulus terrestris, many retreating soldiers were injured and fell to the ground. Wave after wave of soldiers fell, all constantly rolling struggle.


    The more so, the more miserable.


    The speed of the soldiers'' retreat also slowed down, and countless people became burning people.


    Seeing this, Cao Cao''s cheek twitched slightly. He finally understood that this was the purpose of Zhang Xiu''s throwing iron thistle, which was deliberately used to slow down the retreat of his soldiers, so as to spread the fire.


    "Zhang Xiu is so cruel and calculating."


    Cao Cao was biting his teeth. Almost all of his words came out of his teeth.


    His eyes were fixed on the front.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu''s camp. At the moment, the soldiers who were on fire rushed to the camp. Although the soldiers were stabbed to death by the long gun array and had fallen at the gate of the camp, the fire was spreading and began to go inside the camp.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu''s camp, soldiers rushed out. These soldiers have a backpack behind them, which quickly sprinkles the sand. As soon as the sand falls on the fire, the fire goes out.


    Cao Cao''s face froze.


    Why didn''t he think of it?


    Such a simple truth, he did not expect that since Zhang Xiu had made arrangements, she would certainly make defensive measures.


    Cao Cao feels liver ache!


    Zhang Xiu''s defense is too strong.


    Countless soldiers under his command rushed forward and didn''t even rush in at the gate of the camp. Cao Cao knew that even if he sent Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xia Houdun and others, it would not help.


    Under the fire, manpower is hard to do.


    Last time, Cao Cao easily broke through Zhang Xiu''s camp. However, judging from the current situation, Zhang Xiu''s retreat at that time was obviously intentional. He was not serious at all. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s camp at that time would be difficult for him to break through.


    Cao Cao''s face was as gloomy as water.


    At this time, Cao''s army no longer attacked, but Cao''s soldiers in the fire circle were still fluttering. There were screams and wails.


    They are reduced to burning people and have no way to escape.


    This scene is too tragic.


    Zhang Xiu commanded the soldiers to resist the approaching fireman, and there was no moving look on her face. As a general on the battlefield, this kind of fighting is very common.


    Time goes by little.


    Fire from the beginning of the fierce combustion, and gradually began to subside. A small number of Cao soldiers outside the camp have been turned into ashes, but the vast majority of them are still alive. They have already been burned and changed into charred bodies.


    Everything, restore silence.


    The two armies resumed confrontation again.

 Chapter 180

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were bright and sharp. She said in a deep voice, "Duke Cao, this battle is just the beginning. Do you really want to continue? Continue to kill. Your troops are not enough to see. "


    According to Zhang Xiu''s estimation, the previous fire caused at least 1000 casualties of Cao Cao''s soldiers.


    At least a thousand.


    He didn''t think Cao Cao could easily accept such a loss.


    If it were him, it would be uncomfortable.


    Cao Cao''s face drew, his steel teeth clenched, and his eyes were full of fierce color. So far, he can''t retreat. The fight has already begun, which means that the bow is on the string, so it is impossible to retreat.


    "Zhang Xiu, even if you keep every drop of water, I will defeat you."


    Cao Cao replied strongly.


    He didn''t want to withdraw. Once he returned to Xudu as a loser, he was afraid that the court would be in a fierce situation again, and a group of loyal officials would fight for power like mad dogs.


    This is the last thing Cao Cao wants to see.


    So, he has to win.


    Zhang Xiu heard Cao Cao''s words and knew that Cao Cao was trapped in this war. Although today''s Cao Cao can retreat at any time, people are not machines after all. They all have certain demands and desires.


    It''s impossible to get rid of.


    Cao Cao is also a human being with certain demands.


    So Cao Cao wants to win.


    Zhang Xiu was full of war in her eyes and said, "Duke Cao, I''ll wait and see the attack of your army. If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. But to be sure, you can''t hold on first, and you will lose a lot. "


    If Cao Cao wants to attack, Zhang Xiu will not retreat.


    He is defensive and not afraid of Cao Cao''s attack.


    When Cao Cao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he hummed, but he didn''t answer again. He looked at the arrogant Zhang Xiu, and even had an impulse to order the attack again to teach her a lesson.


    But just now a fire, so that the soldiers under the command of fear. One by one, they just came back from retreat, and they were very nervous. It is obviously impossible to organize another attack at this time.


    Cao Cao was not in a hurry for a moment, but immediately ordered the withdrawal.


    The army retreated six miles and then camped.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, on the other hand, quickly cleaned the battlefield and re arranged the defense of the army. Zhang Xiu is very clear that this time can easily win the victory, make Cao Cao retreat, is to beat Cao Cao unprepared.


    Next time, it''s not that easy.


    During the confrontation between Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu, the cavalry of Sirius battalion led by Chen Dao had already bypassed Cao Cao''s army and crossed the Shahe River and headed north.


    With Ling Feng leading the way, everything goes well.


    Along the way, Chen Dao didn''t have a rest and was on his way quickly.


    At night, it''s getting dark. Although the cavalry of Sirius camp quickly adapted to the situation at night, Ling Feng can''t hold on. After all, he suffered some minor injuries and is not in good health.


    Ling Feng doesn''t want to go.


    However, he couldn''t put it forward directly, so when the army was resting, Ling Feng came to Chen Dao and suggested, "General Chen, it''s already late at night. It''s chilly in spring now. I''m afraid it will be very difficult for soldiers in the army to hurry up when they shout. You see, do you want to stop and rest for a while and stop on your way


    Chen Dao did not answer and said, "general Ling is familiar with the road conditions. Can we have Cao Cao''s spies on this journey tonight?"


    "No!"


    Ling Feng also answered truthfully and did not lie.


    Chen then said, "since there are no ambushes and spies, we have to hurry. Once we enter the territory of the Cao army, we have to slow down our speed and can''t go at full speed. Tonight, keep going. "


    Ling Feng smell speech, face black down.


    Chen Dao doesn''t care about friendship. He says he''s tired when he says he''ll take a rest. But Chen Dao doesn''t care about him at all.


    Ling Feng said: "Chen Dao, I don''t agree to go at night."


    Chen Dao began to laugh.


    Ling Feng really wants to wrestle with him, intending to take the initiative, or do what he wants.


    But it''s impossible.


    "Why?" Chen asked


    Ling Feng directly replied: "it''s dark at night, the road is southbound, and it''s chilly in spring. It''s very cold. Either way, it''s not good for the road


    Chen Dao stares at Ling Feng and sneers: "no matter how hard the road is, can it be more difficult than after failure? Chilly spring, no matter how cold, can there be the chilling cold after failure? Ling Feng, this attack is not up to you, it''s up to me. Your task is just to lead the way. "


    Ling Feng is furious.


    In fact, he doesn''t like Chen Dao very much.


    Chen Dao is just a latecomer.


    He is an old man in the Xiliang army. He once stood on Zhang Xiu''s side when Zhang Xiu faced Li Chen to seize power.


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, he is an old man.Ling Feng raised his head and said: "Chen Dao, no matter what, I just don''t agree to go on. Tonight, we''ll take a rest and keep our spirits up, and we''ll continue our journey tomorrow morning. "


    He looked at the soldiers around him and asked, "you''ve been running all day, and you''re very tired. Do you want to keep on going? Chen Dao didn''t care for you, he would have cared for you. Do you want to go on your way? "


    "Yes!"


    All soldiers, answer with one voice.


    None of the soldiers stood beside Ling Feng. They were all on Chen Dao''s side.


    Brush!


    Ling Feng''s face changed greatly.


    He never thought that all the soldiers would speak with one voice and stand on Chen Dao''s side. In his opinion, these soldiers are extremely tired, very hard, especially in the dark at night, the cold wind blowing, very hard.


    The soldiers should not support Chen Dao.


    They all support Chen Dao.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Ling Feng yelled.


    Chen Dao is not an indecisive person. He doesn''t want to talk with Ling Feng. He holds the big gun tightly in his hand and pours power. The big gun sweeps out.


    A shadow of a gun passed in the air.


    The next moment, only a dull Bang came out. Chen to the hands of the gun, has been hard hit in Ling Feng''s back. Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Ling Feng''s body could not be stabilized, and he fell from his horse.


    When he fell off the horse, he landed on his right side. It happened that he went to attack Cao Cao''s granary, and his right arm was slightly injured. This time, he was hurt even more, which was extremely uncomfortable.


    Ling Feng''s cheek was red.


    His eyes were full of anger.


    He''s more murderous!


    If he had a chance, he would certainly kill Chen Dao to get revenge. Just now, he can''t provoke Chen Dao, otherwise here, even if he is killed by Chen Dao, he will die in vain.


    Ling fengrao knew that the situation was unfavourable. He also choked his neck and threatened: "Chen Dao, you beat Ben Jiang. I''ve written down this time. I don''t care about you now. When I get back to the army, I''ll report it to my Lord. "


    Chen Dao said, "whatever you want!"


    Ling Feng continued: "I was born in the Xiliang army, an old man who followed the Lord, and my Lord''s lineage. I''d like to see if the Lord values you more or me more. This time, you''re dead. If you kneel down immediately and apologize to me, I may think about it and forgive you for your mistake. "


    Chen came to the corner of his mouth with a touch of disdain.


    How naive!


    Before he came, he took this situation into consideration. If he had got Zhang Xiu''s name, he could handle it completely.


    Even if he killed Ling Feng, it doesn''t matter.


    However, Chen did not start, and Ling Feng is still needed to lead the way. He did not say that Zhang Xiu was partial to him, but said, "if you want to complain, I''ll take it. It''s naive of you to think that I''ll kneel down and apologize to you. If you open your mouth again, be careful that the iron gun in my hand doesn''t recognize people. "


    "Hum!"


    Ling Feng heard Chen''s threat and immediately stepped back. He gritted his teeth, endured the pain of his body, and got on the horse again.


    "Let''s go!"


    Ling Feng is also aware of current affairs.


    He knows that the current situation is not suitable for him to talk to Chen. If he stops Chen Dao again, he is likely to be killed, so he is also honest with the army on his way.


    The army took a rest and went on.


    Only when the soldiers in the army looked at Ling Feng, there was a touch of disdain in their eyes.


    They look down on Ling Feng.


    Ability, no ability!


    If you want martial arts, no martial arts!


    Chen Dao is different. He is not only excellent at shooting, but also good at training cavalry. As the commander of the Sirius camp, Chen Dao loves the cavalry of the Sirius camp, and has already reached an agreement with the soldiers.


    So they are all hostile to Ling Feng.


    One night, Chen Dao and his party left the Nanyang County border and entered Yanzhou.


    Ling Feng led the way without saying a word. All the cavalry did not say a word, but continued to follow. They walked around for nearly two hours, and towards noon they came to an open area.


    Ling Feng stopped, looked at Chen Dao, and said impatiently: "five miles ahead, it''s the place where Cao Cao hoards his food and grass. At that time, we had a great effort to discover this place. "


    Chen Dao immediately sent out sentinel, first step quietly to the front to inquire about the news.


    Sirius camp, hiding in place.


    Chen Dao also praised the location of Cao''s grain and grass hoarding. They entered a mountainous area and walked around for an hour or two before finally arriving here.


    The road is not complicated, but if you are not familiar with the road, you can''t find the granary at all.

 Chapter 181

    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Cao Cao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he opened his mouth, stroked his beard and laughed.


    His eyes were full of sarcasm.


    His face was full of disdain.


    Zhang Xiu heard Cao Cao''s laughter and stared at Cao Cao without blinking. It was Zhang Xiu who didn''t move and didn''t cooperate at all. Cao Cao stopped laughing and suddenly felt very upset.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t play according to common sense.


    When he laughs, Zhang Xiu should ask him why he laughs, and then Cao Cao goes on.


    That makes sense.


    Cao Cao awkwardly finished laughing, then said: "Zhang Xiu, if you shoot an arrow outside 80 steps, as long as you have Dian Wei, don''t say 80 steps, even 60 steps, you can''t kill me."


    "It''s even more ridiculous that you want to kill our official within one Zhang. Ganning is not the enemy of the combination of Dian and Wei. What''s more, as soon as you make a move, Dianwei will stop you, and I can get away easily. "


    "It''s impossible to kill me!"


    Cao Cao tossed the ground and said in a voice: "you exaggerate too much. It''s no use threatening like this."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s rare that Cao Gong is so clever. You''ve seen through my little tricks."


    But Cao Cao thought something was wrong.


    Although Zhang Xiu praised him for his cleverness, her tone seemed to be like an adult praising a three-year-old child. Just like when he was at home, he often touched his little son''s head and praised him.


    It''s the same tone and tone.


    Cao Cao stopped talking about this topic, and then changed the subject. He said, "before you withdrew from Lushan, you kept retreating and going around in circles. Now that we have recaptured Luyang County, we are stationed in the same place. Do you think that if we have Luyang County, we will have the strength to resist it? "


    Zhang Xiu straightened the whole wrinkled armor and said, "Lord Cao, I didn''t have the courage to resist you until I got Luyang county. No matter before you come to Nanyang County or after you come to Nanyang County, you have the courage and courage to resist you. "


    "The reason for going around in circles is just to delay time."


    "In order to win Luyang county."


    Zhang Xiu said: "now you sit down and talk to me, saying these and those is to get the news of Cao Chun''s victory. The people who know you have defeated my Raiders. Do you want to show off?"


    Cao Cao said: "you are really smart. You can guess what I think. Alas, when people are old, they are less tolerant when they are young. It''s said that it''s normal for an old child, an old child, to be nearly half a hundred years old and old. "


    He just wants to show off.


    Is to let Zhang xiuxin plug.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t think so. She said faintly, "Duke Cao, winning or losing is a matter of military affairs. It''s just a defeat for a while. It''s no big deal. Though my men failed to attack your granary. But his failure is his failure, and I have made up for it. "


    Cao Cao said: "how to make up for it?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "I arranged the dark pile and went to Xudu. When they arrive, they will publicize the news that Cao Gong lost his army at the expense of his army. Think about it. Cao Anmin, the great general under the command of Cao Gong, was captured in prison, and even his nephew Cao Anmin was taken prisoner. He lost more than ten thousand elite soldiers. What will happen when the news spreads in Xudu? "


    Cao Cao''s heart beat.


    Zhang Xiu is so vicious that she uses such means. He knew that the news would spread in the rear, and there would be a great disturbance in the court, which would strangle him.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the change of Cao Cao''s face, she began to laugh.


    What I said just now is a bluff to Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu''s foothold in Nanyang County is not long, and has been busy with the things in hand, there is no time, nor the strength to put the pile to Xudu.


    But this doesn''t prevent Zhang Xiu from scaring Cao Cao. When he sees Cao Cao''s appearance, he knows that Cao Cao believes it.


    Of course, Zhang Xiu doesn''t worry about dressing.


    If Cao Cao withdraws now, it will have no influence on Zhang Xiu. When Cao Cao goes back, he finds that there is no news. It''s too late.


    If Cao Cao was defeated and returned to Xudu, Xudu''s public opinion would ferment even if he didn''t arrange for publicity.


    Anyway, it''s good for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in the eyes of the world, Cao Gong is a great power, and he only covers the sky with his hands. But in my opinion, with the emperor in hand, it is a double-edged sword. It has both advantages and disadvantages. "


    "Compared with Cao Gong, I have deeply realized the difficulty of seizing power and restraining you after the emperor established himself in Xudu."


    "It''s not a good taste!"


    "If Cao Gong is fighting outside, he will win in a row and sweep all directions. Then the emperor has no way to deal with Cao Gong. If you lose and suffer a big loss, the emperor will take the opportunity to intervene. "


    "Mr. Cao, can you still hold the rumor together? In other words, can the people behind you resist the attack of the emperor? "


    Zhang Xiu talks about it.


    The words are calm but sharp.In a word, the waves suddenly.


    Cao Cao''s face changed again and again. At the moment, Zhang Xiu in front of him was like facing an old fox.


    He''s got his life.


    Cao Cao is not a three-year-old urchin, not easy to deal with. He took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mind. He could not admit that he was not at peace with the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, how can you restrain me? Zhang Xiu, you think too much. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "whether it is true or not, Cao Gong knows in his heart. There is a saying like this, such as drinking water is warm and cold. Only when you are in it can you know. As a Sikong, Cao Gong is in a high position. He has great power. On the surface, he is beautiful. Only you can feel his sadness and helplessness. "


    When Cao Cao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was filled with emotion.


    Zhang Xiu knows him!


    It''s really like drinking water, you know what''s warm and what''s cold.


    In the eyes of outsiders, he is Sikong of the imperial court. However, there are countless constraints and hidden arrows.


    It''s not easy for him.


    Cao Cao was angry at Zhang Xiu''s previous practice, but that was due to his position. If Zhang Xiu is willing to submit, then Cao Cao is willing to accept and resolve the conflict.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has talent!


    Cao Cao had the idea of loving talents and wanted to attract Zhang Xiu. He solemnly said, "Zhang Xiu, you have talent and ability. Nanyang is not enough for you. As long as you are subordinate to your official position, you can choose from them. How about that? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "why don''t you believe what I said?"


    Zhang Xiu can feel the sincerity of Cao Cao.


    He had no doubt about Cao Cao''s mind and promise. He also admired Cao Cao, but he had hatred with Cao Shi and even more intention to kill Cao Pi. He could not surrender Cao Cao.


    This life, Zhang Xiu will not follow who.


    If you stay close to the mountain, it will fall.


    Only by ourselves.


    Only when we are strong enough to become a towering tree, can we really have a foothold.


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said boldly, "Mr. Cao, you say that I can choose the official posts in the court. Well, I want your position as the chief air officer. Can you afford it? "


    The pupils of Cao Cao''s eyes shrank.


    When he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he had a clear understanding of Zhang Xiu''s ambition. He was not a willing man.


    Zhang Xiu is a man with great ambition. She is sure to compete in the world.


    This is Cao Cao''s judgment.


    Cao Cao knew Zhang Xiu''s attitude and solicited Zhang Xiu''s thoughts through his words with Zhang Xiu. He stood up and said in a deep voice: "in that case, you and I can only be enemies."


    Zhang Xiu then got up and threw a voice: "even if it''s the enemy, then what? I''m Zhang Xiu. I''m not afraid of anyone. When a man comes to this world, he will be magnificent. To live is to be a hero; to die is to be a ghost! "


    "Good, good one. He should be a hero in life and a ghost hero in death."


    Cao Cao''s eyes twinkled, his big sleeve flicked, said: "Zhang Xiu, you are very good. Young as he is, he can be a hero. Today''s world is full of mediocre people. The only heroes in the world are you and Cao. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Duke Cao has been praised falsely."


    "Prepare for World War I!"


    Cao Cao turned and left, straight back to his own army.


    Zhang Xiu is also a direct return, he for Cao Cao, both once the heart of resentment, but also for Cao Cao''s admiration.


    It''s a very complex emotion.


    It''s just that we have to fight again!

 Chapter 182

    As time went by, about half an hour later, the sentry came back and reported the situation of Cao army''s granary in front of him. Cao army was stationed in the granary, which was orderly and strict.


    After all, Cao Chun is also a famous general.


    Cao Chun was in charge of the granary, with proper arrangements. He would not leave his duty without permission, let alone drink.


    It''s not easy to win in such a situation.


    After hearing the news from the sentinel, Chen Dao looked at Ling Feng and said in a deep voice, "Ling Feng, how did you attack the granary last time you brought soldiers?"


    Ling Feng glanced at Chen Dao, raised his head, looked very proud, hummed: "how can we attack? Of course, it''s a strong attack. All the troops under my command stormed the gate of their camp, ready to kill directly. I don''t know. Cao''s camp is so strict that Cao Chun''s soldiers are extremely brave and hard to break through. "


    "Fool!"


    When Chen Dao heard this, he scolded.


    Ling Feng said, "what did you say?"


    He immediately widened his eyes, his face became cold, and he was ready to be angry. Anyway, he is Zhang Xiu''s general, but he is so humiliated by Chen Dao.


    Chen to now see Ling Feng, even less.


    This fool, he''s attacking.


    Even if it''s a strong attack, it''s not a direct attack on Cao''s camp gate.


    Chen Dao waved his hand and said casually, "it''s light that I call you stupid. If the Lord doesn''t think that you are an old man, you should be put to death just by your reckless action. And thousands of soldiers were killed. You''re too incompetent. "


    As a subordinate of Zhang Xiu, he felt sorry for her.


    Every soldier under Zhang Xiu''s command is not easy to train. Every soldier is an elite in the army. But Ling Feng, like a black sheep in his family, buried nearly 2000 people in one breath.


    The loss is too great.


    It''s not worth it!


    Ling Feng clenched his fist and clenched his teeth and said, "my Lord has not punished me yet. You have no right to speak. At the end of this time, when I return to the army, I will definitely state the matter to the Lord. At that time, you will not be able to eat it. "


    Chen Dao glanced at Ling Feng, a look at the mentally retarded.


    He doesn''t want to see Ling Feng.


    It''s stupid.


    Chen Dao looked up at the sky. It was noon. An hour later, the soldiers had a quick rest. After a simple adjustment, we should be ready to attack.


    Ling Feng sat not far away from Chen Dao, still angry.


    Chen is too low on people.


    He wants to see how Chen Dao can break through the granary. Maybe he is the same as him.


    Time goes by.


    An hour is fleeting.


    This is the afternoon Shenshi, Chen''s cavalry, through a short rest, to restore the spirit. He asked the soldiers to check whether their bows, arrows, firewood and kerosene were complete.


    Carry firewood and kerosene to start a fire.


    Inside the granary, there are grain and grass buttresses everywhere, full of hay. As long as the fire is ignited, Cao Cao''s granary and barracks will be in chaos.


    This is his chance.


    Everything is ready. Chen Dao brings all the soldiers together. He looked around and said in a loud voice, "our plan for this war is to encircle the granary and set it on fire in all directions. Do you know that?"


    "I know!"


    All the cavalry, answer.


    "Let''s go!"


    Chen Dao gave the order directly.


    "Da! Dada


    More than a thousand cavalry of Langya camp are riding fast.


    After entering the territory of Yanzhou, all the cavalry were tied to their mouths to avoid the horses'' neighing and leaking information. The horse''s hooves rumbled. In a few miles, Chen Dao''s cavalry soon arrived outside the granary.


    "Scatter!"


    Chen Dao ordered directly.


    A thousand cavalry, quickly spread around, surrounded the granary. As soon as the cavalry was in position, they moved quickly. Everyone took out the slack pottery pot, opened the lid, spilled the fire oil on the ground outside the granary, and quickly lit it.


    The fire was burning, and the cavalry took out their bows and arrows.


    Every bow and arrow is bound with cloth soaked in fire oil, which is easy to burn. Soldiers with bows and arrows, rocket into the camp to ignite the firewood in the granary.


    "Crackle, crackle!"


    The fire broke out and soon began to burn.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Cold wind blowing, the fire is like a fire snake, rapid spread.


    Cao''s soldiers in the camp were all flustered and moved quickly to put out the fire.


    Cao Chun also rushed out.


    Cao Chun is now 28 years old and nearly 30 years old. He looks solemn and meticulous. He has a pair of inverted eight character eyebrows on his eyebrows. His eyebrows are sharp and he is not angry. Seeing that there was a fire everywhere in the camp, Cao Chun''s eyebrows also flashed a dignified look.Fortunately, he was ready.


    There was no need for Cao Ang''s arrangement. The soldiers in the army began to carry the sand and stones quickly. They scattered the sand and stones that had been prepared for a long time on the fire to put out the burning fire.


    It''s just that there are too many fires burning.


    Fires were burning all over the camp.


    Cao Chun''s deputy general came to Cao Chun''s side and reported: "general, although we put out the fire quickly. But outside the camp, there were countless enemies lighting fires. Even if we ignite the fire quickly, we can''t put it all out. Moreover, there is a lot of firewood in the camp. Once all the firewood is ignited, even if there are one or two thousand more people, it will not help. "


    On the rough cheek of the deputy general, he looked worried.


    Cao Chun narrowed her eyes and thought quickly. Before that, the people who attacked the granary directly attacked the gate of the camp, intending to rush in, but they were easily defeated by Cao Chun.


    This wave is arson.


    This is the trickiest part.


    Because in the granary, there is a large amount of grain and grass in the storehouse, which is easy to ignite.


    Once the fire burns, it''s very dangerous.


    Cao Chun soon had an idea and ordered: "check carefully, how many enemies are there outside?"


    "Here it is


    The deputy general will be ordered to arrange it quickly.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, the news came back, and the deputy general quickly came to Cao Chun and reported: "general, there are about 1000 troops coming from outside, all of them are cavalry. They are scattered outside the barracks. It seems that they are only here to attack the barracks, and they do not intend to fight us. After all, there are not many people. "


    Cao Chun said: "the last time Zhang Xiu''s army attacked, it was a frontal charge. This time, it was arson on all sides. Zhang Xiu, a cavalry sent here, is easy to break down individually when scattered. Send down the orders, mobilize the troops, and prepare to fight with me. "


    "Here it is


    The deputy will arrange it immediately.


    As the war drums sounded in the barracks, more than 1500 soldiers in the army gathered quickly.


    These 1500 people are the elite of Cao Chun.


    There are more than 200 cavalry among them.


    That''s tiger and leopard riding.


    Because of the existence of tiger and leopard riding, Ling Feng suffered a heavy loss when he was defeated and retreated last time. Without the cover of tiger and leopard riding, Ling Feng could not have suffered a heavy loss.


    Cao Chun mobilized the soldiers and arranged for the auxiliary soldiers in the camp to continue to put out the fire, while he led the army out of the gate and went to the left side of the camp to wipe out the arsonists one by one.


    "Kill


    Order Cao Chunjun to fight.


    While Cao Chun was fighting, the arsonists retreated and continued to set fire. They didn''t fall in love with Cao Chun. They just left quickly. After all, they were all cavalry. They came and went like the wind, and they were all scattered. They could get out quickly.


    Cao Chun killed himself on the left side of the gate. As soon as he was three miles away, he saw that the other side''s cavalry didn''t fall in love with him at all. He just kept retreating.


    "No!"


    Cao Chun suddenly thought of a possibility and ordered: "withdraw, withdraw to the gate of the camp!"


    He turned his horse and retreated.


    He took the army to the left side of the camp to attack, but ignored the defense at the gate of the camp. After all, the battalions are auxiliary soldiers with weak combat effectiveness. Once attacked, the auxiliary soldiers will surely be defeated.


    Cao Chun ran back quickly, but when he returned to the gate of the camp, he saw that a cavalry had already entered the camp, defeated the auxiliary soldiers in the camp, and was setting fire everywhere.


    "Go ahead, destroy this army."


    Cao Chun''s heart is full of remorse.


    When he saw that the enemy''s forces were scattered, he decisively went out of the camp to kill the cavalry. Unexpectedly, but in the other side''s calculation, leading to a cavalry into the camp.


    Cao Chun entered at the gate of the gate and rushed to the cavalry led by Chen Dao.


    The person who set fire in the camp is Chen Dao.


    Around Chen Dao, there are more than 400 cavalry.


    Previously, Chen Dao arranged arson. He and his cavalry were arsonists. But Chen Dao is on the right side of the camp, watching Cao Ren leave the camp with the army and start chasing from the left side. He resolutely seizes the opportunity to enter the camp.


    Now, they set fire everywhere.


    It''s easier and easier to set fire in the camp. Especially when the fire is burning, the fire is more fierce.


    Chen to success, no longer in-depth.


    Even if the granary is wide, as long as the fire burns, it can ignite the fire of these granaries. When he left with his soldiers, he saw the Cao army killed.


    Chen Dao''s eyes fell on Cao Chun, who was in front of him.


    In his eyes, there was light.


    He wants to take Cao Chun.

 Chapter 183

    "Kill


    Chen Dao boldly ordered to take his hair to charge. He took the lead and went straight to Cao Chun.


    "Da! Dada


    The horses are galloping.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Chen arrived at Cao Chun. The long gun in his hand was raised, and the tip of the gun turned into a streamer. Then he came to Cao Chun''s chest and went straight to Cao Chun''s heart.


    Cao Chunli on the horse, side to avoid a shot. The six foot long knife in his hand was also swung fast.


    The edge of the knife suddenly rose, and the sharp air came straight to the front of Chen''s cheek.


    Chen Dao took back his long gun and lifted it up to block Cao Chun''s blow. Chen Dao''s fighting experience is very rich. His hand shakes the barrel of the gun, and then his big gun rushes up and blows away Cao Chun''s blade.


    The spear moved forward and stabbed Cao Chun again.


    In fact, Cao Chun is also a valiant general in the army, and has rich combat experience. In the face of Chen''s attack, he is not impatient, steady to resist.


    Two people you come and I go, in a flash then fight more than ten moves.


    Chen went to the gun to increase his attack.


    He used to make a tentative move, and when he found out Cao Chun''s martial arts level, he would not keep it, and he would go all out to attack. Under Chen''s repeated attacks, Cao Chun blocked Chen''s attack at first, but gradually fell into the downwind.


    One move in one form, all are restrained by Chen Dao.


    As if every step of Chen Dao could predict the direction of his every move, he was extremely subdued.


    Chen Zhi took the lead and the offensive became more and more fierce.


    The shadow of the gun is shaking, the gun is like a dragon, and the attack is like a storm. Under the continuous attack of Zhang Xiu, Cao Chun was shot in the left shoulder and slightly injured.


    Cao Chun resisted and looked around.


    Although there are more than 200 tigers and leopards under his command, most of them are infantry.


    His infantry and his cavalry were irresistible and soon defeated. Even if all the tiger and leopard riders are elite soldiers, they can fight on horseback, but a few of them can''t turn the situation around at all.


    The most important thing is that the rear is surrounded by cavalry.


    This is to encircle and annihilate him!


    When Cao Chun resisted Chen Dao, he saw Chen Dao''s long spear stabbing. He leaned slightly, took Chen Dao''s shot on his left shoulder as the price, held the knife in both hands, and seized an opportunity to chop it down.


    It''s injury for life!


    With the intention of their own injury, in exchange for the opportunity to kill Zhang Xiu.


    The blade fell, Chen to quickly draw gun, fast gun resist. When he resisted, Cao Chun made a false move. He drove his horse to retreat and ordered: "kill, kill out of the camp!"


    Cao Chun does not love war.


    At present, the camp was on fire everywhere, and his infantry couldn''t stop the cavalry. When it was difficult to hold the barracks, Cao Chun had to retreat first.


    If we continue to fight, the consequences will be even worse.


    Cao Chun retreats with his soldiers. Seeing that Cao Chun is surrounded by cavalry quickly, Chen Dao knows that it is impossible to pursue him. With a big gun in his hand, he stretches his hand across his chest and takes out the big bow hanging on his waist. Then he takes out a feather arrow and puts it on the bow string like flowing water, saying: "medium!"


    The bowstring vibrates and the bow and arrow come out.


    "Whew!"


    Meet pokong, hang sharp howling, straight to Cao Chun''s back.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, Zhang Xiu''s archery is superb, and Gan Ning is not weak. But in fact, Chen Dao''s archery is also powerful.


    After he shot an arrow, the arrow was like a meteor, reaching Cao Chun''s back in a twinkling of an eye.


    When Cao Chun heard the sound of breaking the air, he knew it was not good.


    He fell down to avoid the arrow. Rao Shichun was fast, but he was a step too late. Just as he bent down, the arrow was near.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp arrow pierced Cao Chun.


    This arrow hit Cao Chun''s left shoulder, and the arrow was heavy, and it was deep into the back.


    The blood overflows at once.


    Cao Chun snorted, without making any sound from beginning to end. Under the attack of severe pain, Cao Chun''s cheek was ferocious and frightening. He gave a loud order: "withdraw, evacuate at full speed."


    He can''t manage the grain in the granary.


    You can only save yourself.


    Cao Chun led his troops to break through quickly, and there were tigers and leopards riding on the road. Even if Chen Zhi''s soldiers in Langya camp were all elite, they could not stop tigers and leopards from breaking through.


    Chen also led his troops out of the granary.


    At this time, the granary has turned into a sea of fire.


    The fire began to spread.


    It''s very uncomfortable to see the thick smoke rolling up into the sky and the hot waves around.


    Chen Dao and his soldiers saw this scene outside the camp, and a touch of joy passed over his face. He destroyed Cao Cao''s granary and camp. As soon as the news came back, Cao''s army would be in turmoil, which is absolutely predictable.


    Cao Jun is doomed to defeat.


    Chen Dao wanted to exterminate Cao Chun, but the other side withdrew immediately. He ran faster than the rabbit, and he couldn''t catch up. Although Chen Dao can kill some Cao soldiers if he leads them to cover them up.But the direction of Cao Chun''s retreat was to retreat to Yanzhou. Once Chen came to pursue him, he would go deep alone and be easily encircled. On the contrary, it would be better not to pursue him.


    Take the granary, enough!


    Ling Feng aside, there is a touch of jealousy in his eyes.


    Chen Dao won easily.


    But he failed.


    But Ling Feng didn''t say anything, so he just kept silent.


    "Withdraw!"


    Chen Dao won and ordered the withdrawal.


    The troops retreated quickly and went to Nanyang County. Shortly after Chen Zhi retreated, not far from the north of the granary camp, on the official road to Yanzhou, Cao Chun came out with tiger and leopard riding and many soldiers under his command.


    Cao Chun''s face was pale.


    He was seriously injured in the shoulder, especially when he was hit by a bow and arrow just now. Even if the arrow has been pulled out, the wound has been bandaged, but it is also very uncomfortable.


    Cao Chun''s heart is even colder.


    Last time, he won.


    This time, it failed.


    Cao Chun knew very well how much influence the grain in the granary would bring to Cao Cao after it was burned. It would certainly lead to Cao Cao''s morale turbulence on the front line and he could not fight with all his strength.


    Although Cao Chun was in the rear, he was also concerned about the war on the front. When he learned that Cao Anmin had been arrested, he was also worried that Cao Cao had been arrested for many times. Now that this happened, he had no choice.


    After thinking about it, Cao Chun made arrangements.


    On the one hand, he took the lead in arranging for people to go back to Yangzhai county and ask the magistrate of Yangzhai county to raise food and grass. On the other hand, Cao Chun first arranged for sentinels to tell Cao Cao the news, and then took people to the front line.


    He wants to report the loss of grain and grass.


    Cao Chun''s heart was rather bitter when he was on his way. If he wins this time and goes as a winner, everything will be easy to say. But now, he lost tens of thousands of soldiers'' food and grass, and felt extremely embarrassed.


    It''s the hardest part for him.


    When Cao Chun led the soldiers to Nanyang County, so did Chen Dao.


    At the same time, Chen sent sentries around. His retreat route, still intend to take a shortcut, want to return to Zhang Xiu''s command.


    But when Chen Dao was retreating, a sentinel came quickly and reported: "general, we found that Cao Chun, who was stationed in the granary, also turned around and began to go to Nanyang County."


    "Oh, that''s so!"


    Chen to smell speech, eyes narrowed up.


    This is an opportunity.


    He thought for a while and asked, "how many troops are there around Cao Chun?"


    The sentry replied, "they have more than 200 cavalry, and more than 900 infantry."


    Chen to smell speech, carefully a ponder, calculate the previous World War I, Cao Chun''s forces under the command of the loss is not big. After all, Cao Chun withdrew immediately, and Chen Dao did not send troops to cover up, so the loss was small.


    A moment later, Chen came up with a plan. When he had a plan, he arranged it one by one.


    Prepare for the next battle.


    As a matter of fact, Chen Zhi''s more than 1000 cavalry of Langya camp have lost very little. In addition, Cao Chun and Chen Zhi were injured in the first World War. Under such circumstances, once they entered Nanyang County, it would be easy for Chen Zhi to defeat Cao Chun and Cao Jun.


    When Chen Dao had a plan, he was steadfast and ready to carry out it.

 Chapter 184

    Cao Chun with his tiger and leopard riding, as well as thousands of soldiers retreat. Thanks to his soldiers and some dry food, he was able to support his way to Nanyang County.


    Cao Chun sat in the granary and knew the food situation in Cao Cao''s army.


    At present, the grain in Cao Cao''s army can support at least half a month. With about half a month''s supply of grain, if Cao Cao chooses the quick war tactics, he still has a chance.


    Even if Cao Cao wanted to withdraw, he could withdraw calmly with the grain in his hands.


    Therefore, Cao Chun is not worried.


    Cao Chun came out of Yanzhou and went all the way south, and soon entered Nanyang County. The road to the north of Lushan in Nanyang County was quite smooth, and Cao Chun didn''t encounter any obstacles.


    Under Cao Chun''s fast driving, he arrived near the north of Lianqiao in a short time.


    And five miles from the North Bank of Lianqiao, in a forest.


    This is a flat place.


    The terrain is also relatively open.


    Around the official road are some bushes and some low woods. Now the bushes and woods have sprouted, and the green branches and leaves are swinging in the air, full of vitality.


    It is the branches and leaves that grow out, blocking the sight in the grass forest.


    In the jungle, an army was stationed.


    This army is the cavalry of Langya camp led by Chen Zhi.


    He was familiar with the path of Nanyang County. He first took the path to Cao Chun, and then settled down near the North Bank of Lianqiao. Chen Dao''s idea is to ambush near the South Bank of Lianqiao, where the conditions and terrain are better.


    It''s just hard to cross the river. After all, Cao''s troops are stationed on both sides of the bridge.


    Once Chen Dao is killed, his identity will be exposed.


    Chen Dao can also go to another place to cross the river, and then go to the south bank to lay an ambush, but the distance is longer, which is very uneconomic. So instead of going south, Chen chose to move on the North Bank of Lianqiao.


    In order to ambush Cao Chun, Chen Dao specially collected some weapons.


    It''s easy to get.


    After all, he led the troops outside and could not get supplies. He could only find some simple weapons to deal with Cao Chun quickly and win the battle more easily.


    A group of people, waiting quietly.


    Time goes by little.


    Near noon, the sun is high, and the warm sun in early spring shines down, which makes people very comfortable.


    "Rustle!"


    A sound of walking came from the forest.


    The sentry ran quickly, and soon came to Chen Dao''s body, hugging his fist and saying: "general Qi, the army led by Cao Chun is coming. Cao Chun is about six miles away from us. His army, 200 cavalry in the front and 900 infantry in the back


    "Explore again!"


    Chen Dao gave an order.


    When Chen Dao learned the news, he immediately ordered all the soldiers to prepare. He even asked the soldiers to check again to see if all the horses were muzzled to avoid the noise of Herod.


    Once the horse neighs and the sound comes out, it''s easy to scare the snake.


    It will lead to the collapse of the plan.


    Time is still passing by.


    Suddenly, Chen''s ears moved, as if he felt the vibration of the ground. He knew that Cao Chun''s tiger and leopard had arrived, quietly came to the roadside, fell on the ground, and listened carefully.


    "Here it is


    After listening carefully, Chen Dao saw a light in his eyes.


    The fighters are coming.


    He half squatted on the ground, quickly in position, and so did the rest of the soldiers.


    Chen''s cavalry arrived early. Around Chen Dao, some soldiers, such as Chen Dao, quickly ambush on both sides of the official road, pulling a rope in their hands.


    This is the rope Zhang Xiu found.


    Each rope is three feet long, which can easily cross the whole road. On the top of the rope, small stones are tied at intervals.


    The role of stones is that once Cao Chun''s tiger and leopard horses fall down and press on the stones, they will bump into the horses or even soldiers.


    This is the stumbling block Chen Dao prepared.


    Every ten feet, there were soldiers burying the stumbling cables on the ground, and there were fifteen stumbling cables on the ground. These stumbling ropes and stones are hard for Zhang Xiu to get.


    Now, it is to use this stumbling block to deal with Cao Chun''s cavalry.


    "Boom!"


    Across the way, Chen Dao heard the sound of horses'' hooves.


    More horses hissed.


    The tiger and leopard riders under Cao Chun''s command have come, and the distance is getting closer quickly.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    When the distance narrowed to 40 steps, Chen Dao''s heart was beating fast, and his eyes were full of hope.


    When Cao Anmin was captured, he and Gan Ning fought together.


    It was Gan Ning who captured the prisoner.Now, he has to capture Cao Chun and bring back a city, because he also wants to make great achievements.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves still came. A moment later, Cao Chun''s tiger and leopard riding was less than 20 steps away from Chen Dao''s position. However, Chen Dao still didn''t give a hand and let the soldiers wait quietly.


    Because Chen Dao was holding the last stumbling rope in his hand, he would not order his hand until the horses got close to him. In this way, all hands together, in order to maximize the trip Cao Chun cavalry.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the distance is getting closer.


    Chen Dao saw that the cavalry in front of the tiger and leopard was close to his position, so he stood up and yelled, "let''s go!"


    He tugged at the rope.


    "Hum!"


    The rope straightened and hung in the air.


    On the rope, there are rocks rocking.


    As the soldiers lying in ambush on both sides of the official road pulled up the ropes, as soon as the horses rushed up, the legs of the horses were caught by the ropes. In an instant, they lost their center of gravity and fell straight forward to the ground.


    In order to achieve this step, Chen Dao has made great efforts.


    When the horse strikes the rope, it pulls with great force. If you don''t pay attention to it, you may be dragged out. At that time, it is very likely that the war horse will drag itself out and fall into danger instead of blocking and helping.


    So there are three soldiers pulling the rope.


    The rope in each person''s hand is very long, so they must find the trunk behind them, or bind them with big stones, which can pull the soldiers behind them. In this way, the horses will collide and the soldiers will not be dragged out.


    "Herod!"


    A war horse, constantly falling.


    The horses in front of them fell out of control. For a full distance of 15 feet, they all had stumbling ropes. For a moment, almost most of them fell into stumbling ropes and kept falling.


    Even if there are still some soldiers in the rear, they are not trapped in it. But when they galloped, the speed of the horse was not too fast, but it was very difficult to stop suddenly.


    The horses in the rear, bang bang one after another.


    Cao''s army was in chaos.


    Seeing this scene, Chen Dao ordered: "blow the trumpet, order the attack!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of a long horn sounded on the side of the official road.


    "Kill


    Chen to holds the big gun in the hand, quickly kills. Instead of riding a horse, he killed on foot. Around Chen Dao, there are nearly 300 soldiers, all of whom do not ride horses and carry swords. They fight in the camp of tiger and leopard riding.


    More than two hundred tigers and leopards fell on their horses, and the cavalry fell down.


    At this time, the cavalry on which the tigers and leopards rode were still fainting.


    Chen Dao, if he takes cavalry to kill him, there are places full of stumbling ropes and fallen horses, so it is not easy for cavalry to rush. So he went in with a gun and kept killing the soldiers.


    Tigers and leopards are all elite riders.


    But at this moment, the tiger and leopard soldiers who had lost their advantage were so dizzy and busy that they couldn''t stop them at all. They were completely reduced to fish on the chopping board and allowed to be slaughtered by Chen Zhi and his soldiers.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    Cao Chun took the infantry to the rear, ready to break through from the rear. He saw the front of the tiger and leopard riding in an ambush, saw the front of the kill to Chen and others, face changed greatly.


    Again!


    Cao Chun left and right a lot of time, did not see the rear ambush, only to see the front of Chen and his party. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he planned to order him to rush forward and kill him directly.


    But Cao Chun has not ordered, but his face has changed greatly.


    "Boom!"


    The rapid sound of the horse''s hooves, trampling on the ground, came from behind him. The mighty cavalry is killing in his direction. On the left side of the official road is the Bush, the road is very flat, there are cavalry to kill.


    Two cavalry, straight at his infantry.


    At this moment, Cao Chun''s heart was completely sunk.

 Chapter 185

    Cao Chun fully understood Chen Dao''s intention. First, he crossed the official road with a stumbling rope, tripped up his tigers and leopards, and killed Cao Chun''s most effective army.


    Then, the soldiers were slaughtered by infantry. In the chaos of the army, the soldiers were injured, Cao Chun''s tiger and leopard riding soldiers, completely unstoppable.


    It''s a one-sided slaughter.


    Finally, behind his infantry, the cavalry cut off the retreat.


    Although there are more than 900 soldiers under Cao Chun''s command, they are all infantry. Although they are all elite, they are like fish on the chopping board in front of the cavalry and can''t resist the attack of these cavalry.


    It''s late, it''s fast.


    The cavalry of Langya camp in the rear is less than 80 steps away from Cao Chun. Within this distance, the leader''s school ordered, "shotgun, shoot!"


    The sprinting cavalry took out a short gun from the pocket of the horse''s belly, raised it back slightly, and threw it out.


    People by horsepower, throw out the short gun, the momentum is heavy. The point of the gun broke through the air, with a sharp whistling sound, and in an instant, it came to the army of Cao''s soldiers.


    Cao Chun''s soldiers marched closely.


    In a hurry, you can''t avoid it at all.


    Just listen to the sound of Puchi, a short gun, stabbed into the body of Cao soldiers, with a lot of blood.


    Scream, suddenly sounded.


    One by one, Cao''s soldiers either fell to the ground and screamed, or ran around, making a mess.


    "Don''t run, don''t run!"


    Cao Chun is anxious to see the soldiers under his command.


    Once the soldiers run around, the formation is in disorder, and then they are killed by the cavalry, they will die faster. But under the short gun fire, plus being ambushed, and having been defeated once in the granary before, the morale of the soldiers was in chaos, and the situation was out of control.


    Everybody, run around.


    Everyone, no heart to fight.


    After the formation of Cao''s soldiers was in disorder and scattered. As soon as the cavalry of Langya camp approached, Cao''s soldiers collapsed.


    Defeat like a mountain!


    Cao''s army was defeated.


    Seeing this, Cao Chun''s heart is dripping with blood. Now his Cao soldiers are not resisting at all. They just know how to run around. No matter the cavalry of tiger and leopard, or the infantry under his command, they were all slaughtered.


    "I surrender!"


    Some of Cao''s soldiers surrendered.


    "I surrender, I will surrender!"


    "Don''t kill me!"


    ¡­¡­


    With the first person to eat crabs and surrender, the situation spread like a plague. Countless soldiers of Cao army surrendered. One after another, there were many shouts.


    More and more Cao''s soldiers, frightened and nervous, threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender. It''s the same with the tiger and leopard riding soldiers in front of us.


    It''s over!


    Cao Chun was sad.


    Everyone surrendered. He was completely defeated. But as the chief General of Cao army, he was not willing to surrender. He endured the injury of his body, clenched the sword in his hand and rushed to kill quickly.


    All around Cao Chun were cavalry.


    Cao Chun chose to fight to the death, constantly fighting. Although Cao Chun''s martial arts are not as good as Chen Dao''s, he is also a valiant general in the army.


    The martial arts are very good.


    The blade fell and killed the cavalry one by one.


    This is the case of Cao Chun''s shoulder injury. If he has not been injured, his combat effectiveness will be stronger. But his repeated attacks, after all, affected the injury, pulled the muscles on the shoulder, cracked the wound, spilled blood and dyed his clothes red.


    By this time, Chen Dao had already led the troops to destroy the tiger and leopard riding.


    When he saw that Cao Chun was still struggling, he rushed out of the stumbling block, grabbed a horse, jumped up, turned over and rode on the horse, turned the horse''s head, and rushed to Cao Chun.


    "Get out of the way!"


    Chen Ran and ordered.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid, and Chen arrived at Cao Chun''s body like an arrow.


    The soldiers who besieged Cao Chun retreated one after another.


    Chen Dao''s big gun went up in his hand. His long gun was like a stick. He held it up in the air and cut it down obliquely.


    In an instant, it reached Cao Chun''s head.


    Cao Chungang fought back the cavalry''s siege. Seeing the spear fall, he couldn''t avoid it. He could only hold the handle of the knife with both hands, clamp the horse''s belly with both legs, and directly lift the knife to block it.


    "Dang!"


    The dull crash came out of the crash.


    Under the impact of powerful force, Cao Chun''s internal organs were immediately injured, and his Qi and blood were constantly churning. He just felt that a mouthful of Qi and blood rushed up, and his throat was sweet. He couldn''t help but burst out blood when he opened his mouth.


    Cao Chun''s hand was shaking.


    Especially the other shoulder was injured, in the case of injury, the shoulder affected the arm force. That abundant strength presses down, causes his arm to bend slightly, cannot straighten again."Come again!"


    Chen Dao gave a big drink again.


    After a blow, he swung the big gun in his hand again and smashed it down.


    He didn''t attack with fancy shooting skills, but he reduced his strength by ten. Because Cao Chun had been injured, Chen Dao only needed to keep on attacking and force Cao chun to fight head-on, and then Cao Chun would be defeated.


    "Hoo


    The big gun passed in the air, and in the twinkling of an eye it reached Cao Chun''s head.


    Cao Chun is shrouded in a big gun. He feels depressed and has no chance to escape. He can only fight back with his sword. Even if his arms are sore, even if his palms are numb, even if his shoulders are injured, he can only fight.


    "Bang!"


    Dull impact, suddenly sounded.


    Under the impact of the power of this blow, Cao Chun''s palm was crisp and numb. As soon as he let go, the sword was knocked out by the big gun.


    Cao Chun himself fell off the horse.


    Cao Chun fell to the ground, his body vibrated twice, and his internal organs were burning with pain, as if to break. After all, he is a veteran. At the moment of landing, the conditioned reflex is to make a carp stand up to avoid.


    The pain of his body made him unable to lift his strength.


    Without waiting for him to respond, Chen to gallop, has arrived in front of Cao Chun. Chen Dao''s long gun fell in front of Cao Chun and ordered, "come on, take Cao Chun!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers came forward and took Cao Chun into custody.


    Chen Dao looked around and cried out, "if Cao Chun is captured, he will not be killed. There is no amnesty for those who resist stubbornly. "


    News spread, Cao army morale plummeted.


    Although the Cao army had been defeated before, there were still some Cao soldiers who stubbornly resisted. But with the capture of Cao Chun, this part of Cao''s soldiers, do birds and beasts scattered, no longer have the courage to resist.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the war was over.


    Although some of Cao''s soldiers fled in this war, they were in the minority.


    Chen Dao reorganized the army, took all the prisoners into custody, and ordered, "withdraw!"


    He led the soldiers and planned to take a shortcut to the place where Zhang Xiu was. On Chen Dao''s way back to the front battlefield, Chen Dao once again arranged for sentinels to go back to convey the news.


    When this wave of sentinels set out to return, the Sentinels who left the granary had already returned to the camp first. The sentry who left the granary only conveyed the news that Chen Zhi had burned the granary.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu was overjoyed to learn that Chen Dao had won. He immediately arranged for people to invite Gan Ning, Jia Xu and Pang Tong and quickly told Chen Dao the news of his victory. His face was filled with joy.


    When people heard the words, they were also very happy.


    Zhang Xiu was full of fighting spirit in her eyes. She looked at Jia Xu and said, "after we get the news, Cao Cao will get the news soon. Mr. Jia, what shall we do next? "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw. After thinking about it for a while, he said, "my Lord, in recent days, Cao Cao''s army has attacked fiercely, but Cao Cao has never been able to make a breakthrough."


    "On our part, we have lost nearly 500 troops. Cao Cao is on the offensive side. He has damaged at least two thousand soldiers, or even three thousand soldiers. "


    "After all, Cao Cao, as an attacking party, will lose more."


    "It can be concluded that the number of troops in our army has already taken the lead, more than that of Cao Cao. Although there are countless powerful generals of Cao Cao, we have the strength to fight head-on with Cao Cao. "


    "While Cao Cao did not know the news of Cao Chun''s defeat, or even though he got the news of Cao Chun''s defeat, he did not plan to retreat, so he immediately sent troops to attack Cao Cao."


    Jia Xu said: "when attacking, we should take the news of Cao Chun''s defeat for a walk to disturb Cao Cao''s morale. Since then, we should work hard to defeat Cao Cao. "


    Pang Tong echoed: "what Mr. Jia said is true, but I think Chen Dao has won. He should be given an order so that he doesn''t have to join us and stay at the border between Nanyang County and Yanzhou. When Cao Cao''s army returns, he will give a fatal blow. "


    "Yes," said Zhang Xiu


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu called to the sentry and directly conveyed the order.


    Then Zhang Xiu said, "Gan Ning, mobilize all the troops, and the whole army will go out to fight directly at Cao''s camp."


    A few days ago, Cao''s army attacked one after another.


    We stopped for a while today and didn''t attack.


    This is suitable for Zhang Xiu to fight back.


    Now, it''s time for Zhang Xiu to fight back.

 Chapter 186

    Ganning got the order, quickly out of the barracks, drumming.


    "Dong! Dong


    The drums are beating.


    The roaring sound reverberates inside and outside the camp, constantly ringing. With the sound of the drum, all the troops under Zhang Xiu''s command gathered in array at this moment.


    Zhang Xiu comes to the gate of the camp with his armor on top and sword on his waist.


    All the soldiers, too.


    Zhang Xiu looked around all the soldiers and said in a loud voice: "sons, we have been fighting with Cao Jun for such a long time. Cao Cao''s military strength is weakening day by day, which is no longer comparable to our strength. "


    "Just now, I got a message from Chen Dao. The 1000 cavalry of Langya camp led by him raided Cao Cao''s granary and won the victory and burned Cao Cao''s granary smoothly. "


    "Cao Jun, we are short of food."


    "Now is a good time for us to attack. Cao''s army will lose this battle."


    Zhang Xiu clenched her fist and waved it fiercely in the air, almost roaring: "don''t break the Cao army, swear not to return the army."


    "If we don''t break the Cao army, we will swear not to return it."


    Gan Ning stood in front of the battle, shouting.


    "Don''t break the Cao army, swear not to return the army!"


    "Don''t break the Cao army, swear not to return the army!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there are many shouts. All the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command screamed and roared at this moment, with high morale and fighting spirit in their eyes.


    They fought with Zhang Xiu and won in succession. They have become veterans of all wars.


    Dare to fight, dare to kill, dare to fight hard.


    Now I''m glad to hear Zhang Xiu say that Chen Dao quietly burned Cao''s granary. When Cao Cao''s granary was burned down, Cao''s morale fell. It was even easier to defeat Cao.


    The fighting spirit in the army is completely ignited.


    The soldiers were eager to fly to Cao Cao''s barracks and fight happily.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    After leaving the camp, the army went straight to the camp where Cao Jun was. Cao Cao''s camp is not far from Zhang Xiu''s camp, but a few miles away.


    The army is on its way to get closer.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army was less than three miles away from Cao Cao, the news of Zhang Xiu''s attack spread to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was puzzled to learn that Zhang Xiu suddenly attacked.


    Previously, Zhang Xiu couldn''t hold on.


    Let Cao Cao change the pattern of attack, Zhang Xiu always stick to it, with a variety of means to block Cao Cao''s attack, so that Cao Cao''s every attack is a failure, all in vain.


    Now, it has changed.


    It''s abnormal.


    After Cao Cao pondered for a while, the only possibility he could imagine was that the two sides were fighting. Up to now, Zhang Xiu thought that Cao Cao''s strength was weakened, and he had a chance to defeat him, so he led the troops to kill him.


    That''s the only explanation.


    In other aspects, Cao Cao couldn''t explain, and he couldn''t find the reason.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, the voice of Xia Houyuan came from the gate of the camp. Xia Houyuan reported it, stopped for a moment, lifted the curtain of the tent door and quickly entered the tent.


    XiaHouYuan face, with an eager look, flustered way: "Lord, the event is not good."


    Cao Cao chuckled and said, "miaocai, you are so fussy. As soon as Zhang Xiu changed her normal state, I knew the news that she had killed her soldiers. Although Zhang Xiu leads the troops to kill, it''s not so nervous. You don''t have to worry. "


    He thought it was Zhang Xiu who killed her.


    Even if Zhang Xiu is killed, Cao Cao is not afraid. Although the number of his troops is slightly lower than that of Zhang Xiu, in fact, if the strength in his hand is about defense, even if Zhang Xiu has three or five thousand more excellent troops, he will never break his camp.


    Cao Cao was also proficient in arranging the camp.


    His camp is very strict.


    But Xia Houyuan shook his head and said: "it''s not Zhang Xiu who killed me. I''m not afraid of Zhang Xiu. I have just received the news from Zihe that the granary has been lost and all the grain and grass have been burned. "


    "What?"


    Cao Cao''s voice suddenly raised eight degrees.


    There was a look of shock in his eyes.


    How is that possible?


    The granary is good. How can it be lost? In particular, Cao Chun is a strong general in the army. He is cautious and prudent, and he is also very proficient in defense. He is the most assured person of Cao Cao.


    Xia Houyuan did not say much. He took out a letter and said, "please have a look!"


    Cao Cao took it and quickly browsed it.


    After reading it, he twitched his cheek and sighed: "no wonder, no wonder Zhang Xiu started fighting. It must have been Zhang Xiu who got the news of the granary sinking that she took advantage of the situation to kill her. "


    His eyes were full of loss.


    In his letter, Cao Chun said that Zhang Xiu had arranged 1000 cavalry to set fire to this attack, which caught Cao Chun by surprise. Moreover, Cao Chun was short of troops and could not resist, which led to the collapse of the granary.Cao Cao said, "please come to discuss the matter with Guo Jia."


    Xia Houyuan said: "at the end of the future, someone has been sent to inform Guo Junshi. I guess it''s almost there


    "Hoo


    The curtain of the barracks is lifted and Guo Jia strides in.


    Talk about Guo Jia, and Guo Jia will arrive.


    Guo Jia didn''t know what it was. After saluting, he said, "Lord!"


    Cao Cao knew that the situation was urgent. He told the story of the collapse of the granary and Zhang Xiu''s killing. He quickly said, "fengxiao, the situation is urgent. What do you say to do?"


    Guo Jia also frowned.


    It''s too hard.


    The current situation can be said to be the most difficult time for Cao Cao.


    Guo Jiasi thought for a moment, then said: "Lord, we can''t fight any more. While Zhang Xiu is still on the way, there is still a certain amount of time to use. Please give the order of the Lord. The whole army is ready to retreat. According to the estimation of humble position, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu is about to arrive without calling up the Qi army. After Zhang Xiu arrived, someone had to delay and give the army enough time to evacuate. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed and sighed, "that''s all I can do."


    Guo Jia said: "the news of the loss of the granary is only known to the Lord and general Xiahou. The Lord directly ordered the retreat. No one will know for the moment, and the morale of the army will be stable. "


    Cao Cao said, "XiaHouYuan, you muster your troops to retreat. My official is in charge, and I will resist Zhang Xiu when I lose my job. When his army arrives, it should not attack quickly, but spread the news first. "


    Guo Jia nodded and agreed with Cao Cao.


    Xia Houyuan got the order, did not dare to delay time, on the rapid action.


    Soldiers in the army, keep gathering.


    The assembled soldiers are prepared to leave first.


    When Cao''s soldiers were ready to retreat, Zhang Xiu''s army arrived outside Cao Cao''s camp. Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept and fell on Cao Cao at the gate of Cao Jun''s camp.


    See Cao Cao waiting early, Zhang Xiu mouth raised a smile. He didn''t speak to Cao Cao. With a wave of his hand, he saw a group of soldiers coming forward. Instead of throwing bows and arrows to deliver the message, the soldiers yelled.


    The voice of 800 soldiers was loud.


    The magnificent voice reverberated in the camp of Cao Jun.


    If 800 soldiers shout, it is Cao Chun''s defeat that leads to the loss of granary. The voice that resounded from heaven and earth soon spread all over Cao''s barracks.


    For a moment, all Cao Cao''s soldiers, even the Cao soldiers who were evacuating, also knew the news.


    Originally, the army was stable.


    But after the news came out, the situation suddenly changed, and Cao''s soldiers suddenly panicked.


    The morale of the army began to float.


    Cao Cao''s face changed slightly when he saw this.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu would take such a direct, even rude way.


    Zhang Xiu has no time to talk nonsense with Cao Cao, no matter what Cao Cao thinks. What he has to do now is to make a simple and direct attack to completely defeat Cao Cao''s army and win the war.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu no longer delays time, issued the attack order.


    Now that Zhang Xiu has mastered the absolute advantage, there is no need to delay time, so there is no need to humiliate Cao Cao and win the final victory.


    When the order was given, the soldiers in the army each carried their weapons and quickly launched an attack.


    Wave after wave of soldiers'' attacks, even if Cao Cao dispatched archers to stop them, or even bombed them with catapults, they had little effect. Because Cao''s soldiers now have no intention of fighting.


    The soldiers after Cao Cao''s death could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Fighting time is not long, Zhang Xiu''s army, has killed Cao Jun''s camp gate.

 Chapter 187

    Even though Cao Cao''s soldiers resisted the fierce impact of the army, and even Cao Cao mobilized Dian Wei, Xia Houdun and Xu Chu to defend, they still could not make the soldiers fight with all their strength.


    One by one, the soldiers are powerless.


    It''s all wilting.


    Xu Chu also quickly resisted, and his sword kept chopping, where no one could break through. Although Xu Chu could hold on, the soldiers around him could not hold on and began to retreat.


    Xu Chu had no choice but to retreat. He came to Cao Cao''s side and reported: "Lord, our soldiers are not strong enough to stop the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army."


    XiahouDun and Dianwei also retreated.


    Two facial expressions, are full of helplessness.


    The key is that the soldiers lost their fighting spirit and didn''t want to fight. They couldn''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    They can fight, but once they fall into the sea of people, even if they can kill countless people, they will eventually fall into it.


    It''s not cost-effective.


    "Withdraw!"


    Cao Cao helplessly ordered to retreat.


    Xu Chu, Dian Wei and Xia Houdun joined hands to protect Cao Cao''s retreat.


    As soon as Cao''s soldiers retreated, they were defeated like a mountain.


    No one can resist.


    Although Cao Cao''s resistance time is short, the battlefield at this time, even if it is to win a bit of time, it is quite critical. At the time of Cao Cao''s retreat, his army had already withdrawn from the barracks.


    This ensures the integrity of the army.


    If the army does not withdraw from the barracks first, once it falls into chaos, this time will be over.


    Zhang Xiu with soldiers, fast pursuit.


    As soon as the two sides chased and fled, the speed was extremely fast. They soon left the county seat of Luyang county and went to the direction of Lushan.


    Cao Cao''s army is on its way day and night.


    In the evening, Cao Cao''s army entered Lushan. He didn''t dare to stay, he still didn''t stop, he was still on his way.


    As the chief general, Xia Houyuan was responsible for the withdrawal of the army. After entering Lushan, in front of the army, a small number of Cao soldiers suddenly gathered and came to XiaHouYuan to report the news that Cao Chun was captured alive.


    Xia Houyuan''s face suddenly changed.


    He didn''t expect that Cao Chun was captured alive. You should know that Cao Chun is a strong general in Cao''s army, who is both civil and military. The loss of Cao Chun is a great loss to Cao Cao.


    Xia Houyuan didn''t dare to delay, and quickly came to Cao Cao''s side. He was suffering at the moment, and didn''t know what to say.


    Bad news, one by one.


    First, the granary was lost!


    Then, Cao Chun was captured.


    For Cao Jun at present, it''s just adding insult to injury.


    Seeing that Cao Xiayuan was hesitant, he knew that the situation was not right. He took a deep breath, adjusted his mind and said, "tell me, what happened?"


    He had a hunch. It must be bad news.


    But I''m used to it.


    No matter how bad the news is, can it be worse than the present situation?


    Xia Hou yuan took a deep breath and solemnly said: "just now when our army was on the way, some soldiers came together. They were defeated by Zhang Xiu''s army. They reported that Cao Chun was captured alive by Zhang Xiu''s Ministry. "


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face changed greatly.


    Rao has good psychological quality, but he can''t be stable.


    Cao Chun is his relative.


    He is also his great general.


    Cao Cao''s face was cold and he gritted his teeth and said, "first, I sent back the news that the granary was lost. Moreover, Cao Chun personally sent a messenger to prove that he was good. Why, suddenly caught by Zhang Xiu''s life? "


    Xia Houyuan said: "according to the soldier''s report, after Cao Chun lost his granary, he arranged for people to go back to the rear to gather food and grass. Then, Cao Chun led his troops to the front line, ready to join the Lord. "


    "But near the North Bank of Lianqiao, he was ambushed and captured."


    "More than 1000 soldiers under Cao Chun''s command were completely destroyed. All the 200 tigers and leopards under Cao Chun''s command were defeated. "


    Xia Houyuan elaborated in detail, while he said, he felt congested at the same time.


    What a tragedy!


    More than 1000 soldiers were defeated.


    Cao Cao clenched his fists and wanted to yell at him. He was in such a bad situation that it never happened alone.


    After careful calculation, three generals under Cao Cao''s command have fallen into Zhang Xiu''s hands. Cao Anmin alone broke Cao Cao''s heart. Now Yu Jin and Cao Chun are in the hands of Zhang Xiu, and Cao Cao feels helpless.


    "Withdraw, withdraw first."


    Cao Cao thought for a while and gave such an order.


    Now even he himself is in danger. Once he is caught up by Zhang Xiu, he is likely to be in danger. Cao Cao led the army to continue on their way, left Lushan and soon came to Lianqiao.


    The army under his command passed the bridge quickly. After crossing the bridge, Cao Cao suddenly laughed.In laughter, I''m glad.


    At the same time, there is also pride.


    Standing beside Cao Cao, Xia Houyuan asked, "Why are you laughing, my lord?"


    With both hands on his back, Cao Cao looked at the flowing sand river and said, "Zhang Xiu chose to send someone to burn our granary. Unfortunately, he didn''t do anything to Lianqiao."


    "Our soldiers stationed here are just over a hundred. If he sends people to burn the bridge at the same time, we will be trapped here and unable to retreat. "


    "Zhang Xiu is a little bit tender after all."


    Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu failed to achieve seamless, this is our vitality. Cut off the bridge. We''ll retreat immediately. This time I lost to Zhang Xiu. Next time, I''ll get it back with interest. "


    "Yes


    XiaHouYuan immediately started.


    The soldiers cut off the bridge and made it sink into the water.


    Cao Cao led the troops to retreat.


    The rear Zhang Xiu leads the troops to pursue, this time not easy, has occupied the superiority, he certainly will not let go. When Zhang Xiu was approaching the bridge, there were sentinels running from behind.


    The sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Mr. Qi, Chen Dao is in the rear of our army. He captured Cao Chun alive and captured more than 500 Cao soldiers. He is on his way here. "


    "How could it be?"


    Zhang Xiu a listen, suddenly feel is accidental joy.


    That''s good news.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the troops to stay in place until Chen arrived. In the process of waiting, there are sentinels in front of us, saying that the bridge has been cut off. Zhang Xiu is not surprised by this.


    In order to put an end to his pursuit, it is normal for Cao Cao to cut off the bridge.


    In fact, before that, Zhang Xiu had also considered arranging people to cut off Lianqiao during the counterattack. It''s just that this arrangement is not easy to implement. After all, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know the time of the counterattack. She has to wait until the news of Chen Dao''s victory comes back.


    Otherwise, cutting off the bridge is tantamount to frightening the snake.


    So I gave up burning the bridge.


    Zhang Xiu now ready to continue the attack, he ordered the soldiers to build a bridge, to prepare to cross the river.


    The army is still waiting.


    Less than two quarters of an hour, Chen Dao came back with the team.


    After Chen Dao took Cao Chun, he crossed the Shahe River by taking a small road and went straight to Luyang County, intending to join Zhang Xiu. On the way to March, he received a message from Zhang Xiu, asking him to ambush at the border between Yanzhou and Nanyang.


    But the problem is that he came back with all the soldiers, and he was close to the place where Zhang Xiu was stationed. In addition, there were prisoners, so it was not easy for him to go back to ambush.


    So Chen continued to withdraw.


    Only when he arrived at the location where Zhang Xiu was stationed, he found that Zhang Xiu was hiding Cao Cao.


    He had to come with his men.


    Chen Dao and Zhang Xiu met. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he first explained the reason why he didn''t go to the border of Nanyang County to lay an ambush. Then he reported: "my Lord, I will burn Cao Cao''s granary. Not only that, Cao Chun was captured alive, more than 500 Cao soldiers were captured, and 130 horses were still intact. The rest of the wounded horses will be temporarily placed in the rear. "


    "Good! Well done


    Zhang Xiu showed a look of approval on her face and was very happy.


    Chen has won the battle.


    For Zhang Xiu, with Cao Anmin, Yu Jin and Cao Chun, it would be easier for him to attack Cao Cao.


    "Lord, I will have something to say."


    At this time, Ling Feng stood up. When he looked at Chen, his eyes were filled with hatred and resentment.


    When he went to Cao Jun''s granary, he just suggested that he should take a rest at night and not go on his way. However, Chen Dao shot him and knocked him to the ground.


    He has to complain and let Chen Dao taste the power.


    He is an old man under the command of Zhang Xiu. I believe that after hearing this, Zhang Xiu will make a decision in his favor.

 Chapter 188

    Chen to hear Ling Feng mouth, mouth slightly up, eyes is passing disdain look. When he led the troops to fight, Zhang Xiu once said that if Ling Feng meddled in military affairs, he could do it first and then.


    Zhang Xiu is on his side.


    Chen to originally did not intend to sue, in his capacity, sue a passing Ling Feng, it seems that he is too heartless.


    He didn''t care, but Ling Feng wanted to complain.


    Heaven does evil, but still lives.


    Do not keep your iniquity.


    Chen Dao still did not open his mouth, just stood quietly and watched the change.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Chen Dao and looked back at Ling Feng. There was a flash of light in her eyes. She asked, "what do you want to say?"


    Ling Feng tossed the ground and said: "I''ll go with Chen to destroy Cao Cao''s granary. When I''m on my way, it''s evening, so I should take a rest to recover my morale and fighting spirit. However, regardless of the physical strength of the soldiers, Chen Zhi forced them to go on their way. At the end of his advice, he was shot down by Chen Dao. At the end of the day, the general has already been injured, and even more so


    At this point, his eyes suddenly red, as if there were crystal tears gathered.


    Ling Feng said: "Lord, you should be the master of the final general."


    With a plop, Ling Feng knelt down directly.


    He looked sad and mournful. He continued: "Chen Dao is a rebellious man. With the trust and esteem of his Lord, he didn''t look at us old soldiers in Xiliang. He is self righteous and overbearing. The general and all the soldiers from Xiliang don''t agree. Please make a decision. "


    Zhang Xiu sneers at the speech.


    The last time Ling Feng was defeated, he did not pursue Ling Feng''s responsibility.


    After Chen Dao and Ling Feng went to perform the task, Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers who had fled back to understand the situation at that time. From the mouth of the soldiers that Ling Feng led a man to attack the granary, is to attack Cao''s granary camp, so that failure.


    Zhang Xiu was so angry that her liver ached.


    This fool!


    With more than two thousand infantry, it''s stupid to attack Cao Cao''s granary.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t deal with Ling Feng.


    After all, it''s all over.


    Moreover, Ling Feng is an old man under his command, who has followed him early, so Zhang Xiu is not willing to fight.


    But now, Ling Feng himself has made a mistake, but he accuses Chen Dao of relying on the old to sell the old. He regards himself as a veteran of Xiliang origin and expresses his dissatisfaction on behalf of all the people of Xiliang origin. He clearly wants to kill Chen.


    This makes Zhang Xiu unhappy.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, adjusted her mood and asked, "what do you think should be done with Chen Dao?"


    Ling Feng said without hesitation: "please put Chen Dao to death as an example. Otherwise, people like Chen Dao will emerge in endlessly and continue to disturb the order of the army. "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed.


    Chen Dao didn''t blame Ling Feng, but Ling Feng wanted to kill Chen Dao. His mind was really cruel.


    Zhang Xiu hooked Ling Feng''s hand and said, "come here, come here."


    Ling Feng immediately climbed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ling Feng kneeling on the ground, his face suddenly cold down, under the foot of the force, suddenly kicked out.


    "Bang!"


    Dull impact, suddenly sounded.


    Ling Feng''s chest was hit, screamed and fell back to the ground.


    His face was full of fear.


    In his opinion, he was an old man from Xiliang army and an elder who followed Zhang Xiu. He sued Chen Dao, so Zhang Xiu should deal with Chen Dao in order to calm down the incident.


    But the result was unexpected.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is great, which makes Ling Feng suffer a heavy blow.


    Ling Feng endure the pain of the body, a carp straighten, get up and kneel on the ground again, loud voice way: "Lord, the end will not accept."


    "Don''t you agree?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are sharp as a knife. With one step, she comes to Ling Feng again. Without saying a word, she raises her foot and kicks it out. Just listen to the sound of impact, Ling Feng fell to the ground again.


    Shrill scream, from Lingfeng mouth, he fell to the ground, finally is honest. When Ling Feng looks up at Zhang Xiu, there is a touch of fear and uneasiness in his eyes.


    It''s him who complains. Why does Zhang Xiu want to deal with him?


    Zhang Xiu walked up to Ling Feng and looked down at Ling Feng lying on the ground. She gritted her teeth and said, "I''m going to let you go with Chen to Cao Jun''s granary. What are you going to do?"


    "It''s for you to lead the way."


    "You don''t need to intervene in the arrangement of marching and fighting, and you don''t understand it."


    "What''s Chen Zhi driving all night regardless of his soldiers? Do you know why you march all night, a man who doesn''t even know the art of war? "


    "Do you know the speed of war?"


    "Do you know how fleeting a fighter plane is?"


    "Do you understand the battlefield invasion like fire?"


    "You are such a fool, you don''t know anything, you don''t pretend to know it, and you interfere without authorization. If you know the art of war, you won''t rush to attack Cao''s granary with soldiers in your head. "Zhang Xiu kept drinking and scolding, and continued: "especially if you were born in Xiliang and an old man of Xiliang army, can you represent all the veterans of Xiliang? You are you. You are nothing. You can''t represent anyone. "


    Brush!


    Ling Feng''s face changed greatly.


    He did not expect to be so severely reprimanded.


    At this moment, Ling Feng''s face became black and blue, and his eyes looked more frightened. He said that he could represent the Xiliang army, but in fact, his relationship with Huang Zhao and others was not very good.


    Xiliang veteran, led by Huang Zhao.


    He''s just a little bit of prestige.


    Ling Feng knew that he had hit the iron plate, so he immediately took the helm and stopped dealing with Chen Dao. He kowtowed his head and said, "my Lord, I know you are wrong. Please punish me."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, scold a way: "from now on, you don''t want to lead a soldier, be responsible for the affairs of the kitchen."


    Ling Feng''s face changed greatly.


    To be in charge of the kitchen is to cut off his military power and let him do some chores.


    "Lord, the last general knows his mistake. Please forgive him."


    Ling Feng kowtows to the ground with his head, constantly begging for mercy.


    He didn''t want to go to the kitchen.


    In the kitchen, it''s all dirty and tired. I''m so busy all day that I don''t even have a chance to make contributions.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes became cold and fierce. She said faintly, "how come you don''t even carry out what I have arranged?"


    There is a trace of coldness in the words.


    At the end of the meal, the master was willing to swallow his saliva


    Zhang xiudao said: "in the kitchen, put away your arrogant and domineering nature and do things steadfastly. As long as you do well, I will let you back in the army again. If you can''t do a good job in the kitchen, it''s a mess. Next, you can get out of here. I don''t care for idle people. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Ling Feng nodded and answered.


    His face was full of remorse. If he doesn''t open his mouth to deal with Chen Dao, Zhang Xiu will not deal with him, so it won''t happen.


    He was to blame for everything.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "step back!"


    "Yes


    Ling Feng stood up and stepped down respectfully.


    After Ling Feng retreated, Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Dao and said with a light smile, "Uncle Zhi, you have a good temper. People have already dealt with you. You haven''t said that from the beginning to the end. "


    Chen Dao said: "my Lord is very observant. With my Lord, I will not be wronged."


    He seems very free and easy.


    When Zhang Xiu heard the words, she didn''t say much.


    It''s not a big deal.


    He thought of Cao Chun, who was captured alive, and ordered people to bring him. All the wounds on Cao Chun''s body have been bandaged. The wounds no longer bleed, and people have recovered some spirit.


    Zhang Xiu has no plan to surrender Cao Chun.


    This is Cao Cao''s lineage.


    Even if Cao Chun was willing to surrender, he did not dare to accept it.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Cao Chun in front of him. Once, he knew Cao Chun, but he had little contact with Cao Chun. He looked at the injured Cao Chun and said, "Cao Chun, Cao Cao has withdrawn from Nanyang County. You, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin are all prisoners. What price do you think Cao Cao will pay to redeem you? "


    Cao Chun said, "I don''t know."


    He didn''t want to talk to Zhang xiuduo. After all, he was a prisoner.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Chun said a few words, but Cao Chun''s concise answer, almost no more words, also don''t reveal more information, let Zhang Xiu feel boring.


    Zhang Xiu asked people to take Cao Chun down, and then led the way.

 Chapter 189

    Zhang Xiu led the army on the way and soon came to the vicinity of Lianqiao.


    The bridge has been repaired.


    The army quickly crossed the river and continued to catch up. With the return of Chen Zhi''s cavalry from Langya camp, the army''s hiding power increased, and Chen Zhi led the cavalry to harass and kill.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and followed closely.


    This situation continued from the border of Nanyang County to Yanzhou. Even after entering Yanzhou, Zhang Xiu still did not withdraw, ordered to continue to cover up.


    After chasing and killing Cao Cao for 50 Li, Zhang Xiu ordered the troops to withdraw and did not move on.


    If we continue to advance, we will go deep into the enemy''s territory.


    It''s a lonely army.


    Zhang Xiu and her army withdrew from Yanzhou and returned to Luyang County, then returned to Nanyang County.


    On the other hand, Cao Cao also returned to Yangzhai county.


    The army rested in Yangzhai county.


    But Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan and others all had bad looks. This attack on Nanyang County, Cao Jun''s loss is too great.


    It not only damaged more than 10000 elite soldiers, but also damaged Cao Anmin, Yu Jin and Cao Chun.


    Cao Anmin and Cao Chun are both Cao Cao''s relatives and his direct family.


    Yu Jin is Cao Cao''s confidant.


    It''s impossible to ignore the lives of three people.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    The look on Cao Cao''s face was very serious. His narrow eyes narrowed and showed a cold light, which made people shudder. He looked around Guo Jia, Xia Houyuan and others and said in a deep voice: "the attack on Zhang Xiu failed in this battle. It is impossible to attack Zhang Xiu again in a short time. But what should Cao Chun, Cao Anmin and Yu ban do? "


    All were silent.


    People fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu. It''s extremely difficult for Zhang Xiu to let people go. Considering the fate of Cao Anmin, I''m afraid that Cao Chunhe and Yu Jin are in a bad situation.


    Cao Cao said again, "why, can''t you do it one by one?"


    No one spoke.


    Including Guo Jia, I don''t know what to do now.


    It''s useless to attack by force!


    Is it for peace?


    Guo Jia couldn''t say that.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the tent, a soldier lifted up the curtain of the tent and said, "tell Sikong, Cheng Yu, Lord Cheng, to see you."


    Cheng Yu is Cao Cao''s confidant and one of Cao Cao''s advisers.


    Attack Zhang Xiu, Cheng Yu stay at Xu Du. After all, today''s Xudu is at the foot of the emperor. All the courtiers gather in Xudu, and there are many things to do. Cao Cao must have competent people to sit in order to stabilize the situation of Xudu.


    Cao Cao said, "let him in."


    "Here it is


    The soldier turned to inform.


    After a while, Cheng Yu, wearing a Jinxian crown and a big shirt, strode into the palace. Cheng Yu is now over fifty years old and is the oldest man in Cao''s army.


    Cheng Yu acted decisively and had outstanding strategy. He was Cao Cao''s right arm.


    Seeing Cao Cao, Cheng Yu salutes.


    Cao Cao put a smile on his face and asked, "Duke Zhong De said he would come. What''s the matter?"


    Zhongde is Cheng Yu''s word.


    Cao Cao respected Cheng Yu by addressing him as "Gong" after his words.


    Cheng Yu is neither humble nor overbearing, said: "now in the capital of Xu, people are talking about the battle between the Lord and Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s all right for the people to talk."


    "But inside and outside the imperial court, the officials from the top to the bottom talked fiercely. Many officials accused the Lord of not attacking Zhang Xiu. Because Zhang Xiu is a minister of the state. They all believed that Zhang Xiu had made great contributions to the battle against the Xiongnu and killed huchuquan, King Zuoxian of the Xiongnu


    "This is Xu Du''s case."


    "Chen and other officials suppressed the discussion, but there was no trouble in the rear for the time being. But the situation is delicate and not optimistic. After discussing with Xun you, Xun Yu and others, he thought that the LORD had not taken Zhang Xiu, so he would withdraw his troops. "


    Cheng Yu said: "the Lord''s army has been dragged in Nanyang County, which is not conducive to the overall situation, nor is it conducive to the control of the DPRK."


    "Alas..."


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he sighed.


    Just lost to Zhang Xiu, the rear and chaos, let Cao Cao is very tired.


    Cao Cao said: "now even if I don''t want to withdraw, I can only withdraw. We were at war with Zhang Xiu, the granary was burned, and Cao Chun, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin were prisoners of Zhang Xiu, so we had to retreat. Now I''m worried about how to deal with it. Mr. Zhong De has always been decisive. What do you suggest? "


    Hearing the speech, Cheng Yu''s face changed slightly.


    I didn''t expect that the front-line war was so rotten.


    Cheng Yu is not clear about the situation of the battlefield, said: "please tell me something about the war."


    Cao Cao quickly said it again, and then said: "Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning, and very powerful. He had said before that he wanted to spread the news of my defeat in Xudu. It seems that it really worked. "


    Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "Lord, the news spread by Xu Du is not the work of Zhang Xiu. The sources of the information are all officials loyal to the emperor''s family. "Cao Cao was surprised and said, "are you sure?"


    Cheng Yu said, "I''m sure!"


    Cao Cao frowned and said, "it seems that we have been cheated by Zhang Xiu again."


    Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Xiu must understand the North Korean Bureau, so it is clear that there will be news in the rear. But it doesn''t matter. The problem now is that the courtiers have written to each other to seize power with the Lord. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes flashed a sharp color, and said: "these people, are they really not good at being our official swords?"


    Cheng Yu said: "to deal with these people is the next thing. For the time being, my Lord has no skills. When it comes to Cao Anmin, Cao Chunhe and Yu ban, they must be replaced. "


    Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu won''t let people go easily. With Cao Chun in hand, Zhang Xiu has an advantage."


    Cheng Yu said: "as long as the benefits are given, Zhang Xiu will not refuse."


    Cao Cao said, "what is Zhong De''s strategy?"


    Cheng Yu stroked the beard under his jaw, with a calm expression, and said, "there are three strategies for the Lord to choose."


    Cao Cao said, "let''s hear it!"


    Cheng Yu said slowly: "the best way to be humble is to send an envoy to Nanyang to negotiate an alliance with Zhang Xiu. On the one hand, in the name of the imperial court, Zhang Xiu''s official position will be improved; on the other hand, suitable women will be selected to marry Zhang Xiu and stabilize her relationship. "


    "The overall situation of my Lord is in Xuzhou."


    "In order to ensure that Zhang Xiu does not hinder the Lord, marriage is extremely necessary."


    "In addition, if we give them some benefits, we will have a chance to exchange for Cao Chun and his three men."


    After giving the best policy, Cheng Yu continued: "the middle policy of humble position is just to make an alliance with Zhang Xiu. The imperial court granted the official position, and then promised Zhang Xiu certain conditions, let Zhang Xiu return to Cao Chun three. This strategy may not be able to stabilize Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu may not be willing to make friends. "


    "The worst policy is to negotiate with Zhang Xiu and see how Zhang Xiu wants to release people."


    Cheng Yu looked solemn and put forward three strategies.


    The look on Cao Cao''s face became cold, and his eyes were not willing to say, "Mr. Zhong De, your so-called best policy is to use my official''s daughter in exchange for Zhang Xiu''s non harassment."


    Cheng Yu''s expression is solemn, solemnly way: "humble duty has just said, can take the middle policy."


    "But the best policy is the strongest."


    "The Lord now occupies Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Yuzhou. His strength looks good. In fact, he is also suffering from internal and external troubles. He does not have the strength to look down on all sides."


    "There is Yuan Shao in the north, Lu Bu and Liu Bei in the East, Yuan Shu and Liu Biao in the south, and now there is another Zhang Xiu in the West. The situation is not good."


    "To help the world, there must be sacrifice."


    Cheng Yu talked with a keen eye and said, "besides, the women in this world, the vulgar village women there, have no choice but to choose one person to die and live a mediocre life."


    "If you are a prince like the Lord, all your children are useful. Who can choose your husband''s family?"


    "When you are at the gate, you can''t help yourself."


    "In sum, although Zhang Xiu is the enemy of the Lord, she is not weak. She is the overlord. The Lord''s daughter is not aggrieved when she marries Zhang Xiu. After all, she has to marry someone. It''s good to marry an outstanding person. "


    For Cheng Yu, he only cares about the overall situation of Cao Cao.


    For the sake of Cao Cao''s overall situation, let alone sacrificing Cao Cao''s daughter, he is willing to sacrifice him.


    After listening, Cao Cao was silent.


    In fact, his daughter, as Cheng Yu said, can''t choose her husband in the Marquis''s family. She must be used to get married, to win over the generals, or to help Cao Cao consolidate his strength.


    It''s a woman''s value.


    Cao Cao quickly made a decision and asked, "what do you think of Zhong De Gong''s suggestion?"


    Guo Jia said: "Lord, I agree with you."


    In fact, Guo Jia had given Cao Cao three strategies before. Guo Jia''s worst policy is to let Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu resolve the conflict, and then form an alliance with Zhang Xiu.


    At that time, Cao Cao did not adopt it.


    Up to now, we can only do this, otherwise we can''t change Cao Chun and others.


    XiaHouYuan, XiahouDun and others were all in the same position.


    No one objected.


    Cao Cao''s eyes fell on Cheng Yu and said, "I''m afraid Zhongde Gong will have to go to Nanyang County to negotiate. You are mature and prudent. You are tactful and eloquent. Only under Zhang Xiu''s command can you adapt to circumstances. "


    Cheng Yu said: "it''s duty bound to be humble. It''s only about the specific content of the negotiation. There must be a bottom line. Without the most basic conditions, it would be difficult for me to negotiate with Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao nodded his head and agreed. He negotiated with Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others and set the conditions for the negotiation.

 Chapter 190

    Zhang Xiu retired from Nanyang County. After returning to Luyang County, he took a day off in Luyang County, made temporary adjustments, and then continued to go south.


    Cao Cao retreated, and the war was over.


    Zhang Xiu could even foresee what would happen after Cao Cao withdrew from Xudu? Up and down the court, there must be people loyal to the emperor who constantly criticize Cao Cao.


    In a short time, Cao Cao could not attack Nanyang County again.


    In particular, Cao Chun and others are still in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Cao Cao has to find a way to exchange for the three.


    Zhang Xiu completely took the initiative.


    When Zhang Xiu led his troops all the way south and retreated to Wan County, a sentinel reported from the rear that Cao Cao had sent envoy Cheng Yu into Nanyang County and was coming to Yuyang county to discuss the affairs of Yu ban and others.


    Zhang Xiu knows Cheng Yu.


    Although he was old, he had outstanding talent and was an absolute confidant of Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu did not stop.


    He led the army to continue to go south. When the army was at rest at noon, Zhang Xiu invited Jia Xu and Pang Tong to come, told the news that Cao Cao had sent Cheng Yu into Nanyang, and said with a smile, "Cheng Yu is coming to Yuyang county. What do you think?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard with a smile. Instead of rushing to answer, he looked at Pang Tong.


    He was quite appreciative of Pang Tong.


    Although Pang Tong''s temperament was somewhat rebellious, he was quite obedient in front of him. In particular, Pang Tong''s talent was intelligent and quick to understand. In addition, Pang Tong treated him with his teacher''s courtesy. Jia Xu thought that he would repay him.


    Cultivate Pang Tong more.


    Pang Tong thought for a while and then said, "I think that Cao Cao sent Cheng Yu to Yuyang county to seek peace. Of course, the main purpose is to return to Yu ban, Cao Chun and Cao Anmin. These three people are all Cao Cao''s confidants. Since Cao Cao has retreated, he will certainly not leave them behind. "


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Pang Tong''s analysis.


    He thinks so.


    Zhang Xiu said: "then, do you want to talk about peace with Cao Cao?"


    "Of course


    Pang Tong answered without hesitation.


    There was a light in his eyes, and he said firmly: "the Lord has a foothold in Nanyang. It seems that his strength is not weak, but Nanyang County is a four battle area, not a long-term thing. If the Lord wants to have a solid foundation, he must go north to Guanzhong. Calming down the war with Cao Cao and making a temporary reconciliation will help the LORD go north to Guanzhong. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what about the conditions?"


    Pang Tong said: "naturally, the lion opened his mouth and tried to tear off a large piece of meat from Cao Cao. Cao Cao''s Yanzhou, close to the north, can get war horses. The Lord is not short of money and food, but of war horses. So he thinks that if he wants to negotiate with Cao Jun, he will get at least 1000 war horses. "


    Jia Xu added: "Shiyuan, your appetite is too small. Isn''t Cao Chun, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin worth 3000 horses? One man has 1000 horses, at least 3000. That''s the bottom line. Although three thousand war horses, for Cao Cao, are equal to letting him cut his flesh, he has no choice. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "this negotiation will be interesting."


    Determine the general direction of the negotiations, Zhang Xiu heart also down-to-earth. After lunch and a little rest, the team went on to Yuyang county.


    In mid March, Zhang Xiu returned to Yuyang county.


    When the army stationed in the city, Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning to count the losses and prepare for the pension and reward. At the end of a war, countless soldiers died, and countless soldiers also performed meritorious deeds, paid pensions and awards. All these things need to be carried out immediately.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care about this.


    He left the matter to Gan Ning.


    When Zhang Xiu returns to the prefect''s residence, she first summons Xu Shu in her study to understand the situation.


    Xu Shu looked calm and said with a smile: "this time Cao Cao attacked Nanyang County, whether it was the Pang family, or the Huang family, or even the Kuai family, or Liu Biao. He strongly supported the Lord and gave him countless money and food. The Lord solved the war in more than a month. Although we have consumed a lot of money and food, with the support of major families, our own consumption is almost negligible. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s good to have the support of big families. When Liu Biao entered Jingzhou, it was with the full support of the Kuai family and the Cai family that Liu Biao had a foothold? "


    "It''s true," Xu said


    After taking a rough look at the important government affairs, Zhang Xiu left the government office and went to the backyard of the prefect''s mansion.


    He is going to see Huang Yueying.


    After leaving Yuyang County for more than a month, Zhang Xiu also missed Huang Yueying. Now in March, the weather began to warm up, many flowers and plants in the backyard are blooming and sprouting, a vibrant scene.


    This is Huang Yueying''s arrangement.


    Not to mention, Huang Yueying has arranged the backyard in good order, which is very good.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in the backyard, Huang Yueying was working as a female worker. The clothes she sews are children''s clothes. When Zhang Xiu entered the yard, Huang Yueying was busy, but she didn''t find it.


    One side of the maid see, to remind, but was stopped by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu asks her servant girl to step back and sit down beside Huang Yueying. He saw Huang Yueying sewing children''s clothes, some surprised, but did not disturb, quietly watching Huang Yueying sewing needle by needle.Huang Yueying''s sewing is not very good.


    Many of them are crooked.


    Her attainments in female embroidery are far less than those in equipment manufacturing. However, Huang Yueying sewed it very carefully. Even if it''s slow, it''s painstaking.


    "Scissors!"


    Huang Yueying finished sewing a piece of thread, then gave a command, ready to take up temporarily. But after she raised her head and gave orders, she immediately widened her eyes. On her charming and beautiful face, she showed an unbelievable look and said in surprise, "husband, how did you come back?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "when the war is over, she will come back naturally."


    Huang Yueying said with a smile, "just come back, my husband!"


    At this point, there was a look of shame on her face, a look of desire to talk and stop.


    Zhang Xiu saw Huang Yueying''s appearance, and then looked at the clothes Huang Yueying sewed in her hands. Her heart moved. She had a guess and asked, "Yueying, are you pregnant?"


    He has been away for more than a month. If he wins the bid successfully, it is also possible.


    "Yes


    Huang Yueying''s face is full of maternal brilliance. She reached out and touched the still shriveled stomach, as if stroking a child. She said happily, "I should have been here for six days, but this month hasn''t come yet. I asked Dr. Zhang to feel his pulse. After his diagnosis, he said that he was really pregnant. "


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing, holding Huang Yueying''s cheek and kissing Huang Yueying''s forehead directly. She said with a smile, "Yueying, you are so wonderful."


    Huang Yueying saw Zhang Xiu''s joyful expression, her mood was also high, and her face was full of happiness. As Zhang Xiu''s wife, she is pregnant, which is the best.


    If you don''t get pregnant, that''s the big problem. Because Zhang Xiu''s identity requires more children.


    Huang Yueying hopes that she is pregnant with a son.


    In this way, everything is perfect.


    Zhang Xiu sat next to Huang Yueying and asked, "now that she''s pregnant with a baby, what''s wrong with her?"


    "No, it''s all very good."


    Huang Yueying said: "Doctor Zhang talked about the precautions after pregnancy, and considering that there is no one who knows about pregnancy in her husband''s family. I''ll send someone to Xiangyang to ask my mother to take care of me. "


    Zhang Xiu stroked Huang Yueying''s hair and said, "my mother-in-law is a passer-by. With her, you can have a baby and a speaker. This arrangement is good."


    Zhang Xiu''s parents died long ago.


    There is no old man in the family, only a widowed aunt, and the aunt lives alone, not with Zhang Xiu. In particular, Zhang Ji himself has no children, and his aunt does not understand the situation. Huang Yueying''s mother is the best.


    Two people chatting, time flies by.

 Chapter 191

    Outside the north gate of Yuyang County, a carriage came slowly.


    The man in the carriage is Cheng Yu.


    Zhang Xiu led the army on the way. The speed was slower. Although Cheng Yu started from Yangzhai County, Yanzhou, and then entered Nanyang County, he was fast. After Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County, he came to Yuyang County immediately.


    Today''s Yuyang County, the city has expanded a lot.


    People come and go, it''s very prosperous.


    After all, Yuyang county was the political center under Zhang Xiu. Moreover, many industries of Huang family and Pang family are located in Yuyang County, and Nanyang County is peaceful, so many businessmen gather here


    Cheng Yu looks at everything in Yuyang county with a serious expression.


    Previously, Cheng Yu''s impression of foreign countries was that Yuyang county was not a prosperous and prosperous place.


    Now, it''s quite different.


    After Cheng Yu arrived in Yuyang County, he didn''t go to the post house to stay, but found an inn to stay. He stayed in the inn. Instead of meeting Zhang Xiu immediately, he arranged for his entourage to inquire about the news of Nanyang County, so as to fully understand Zhang Xiu.


    Only in this way can negotiations be facilitated.


    If you know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles.


    Cheng Yu lived most of his life, saw countless storms and waves, and thought meticulously. As soon as he arrived in Yuyang County, he began to prepare for the negotiation.


    He spent two days collecting all the information about Zhang Xiu. Since Zhang Xiu entered Nanyang, all the things in Nanyang County are summarized on Cheng Yu''s desk for Cheng Yu to understand.


    The more he looked, the more startled he was.


    Zhang Xiu entered Nanyang, from scratch, from less to more, just a few months time, completely based. In less than a year, Zhang Xiu''s strength has developed to the point where she can defeat Cao Cao.


    Of course, this is not the whole strength of Cao Cao.


    If Cao Cao made every effort to attack Zhang Xiu, he could easily defeat her. The problem is that under such circumstances, Cao Cao''s border will be turbulent, and Yuan Shu, Lu Bu and others will take advantage of the fire. So although Zhang Xiu is not facing Cao Cao''s full strength, blocking Cao Cao is also blocking Cao''s offensive.


    Cheng Yu''s heart is also afraid.


    Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with.


    Even in accordance with the conditions given by Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu would still open her mouth.


    Cheng Yu passed all the news in his mind, and arranged for his attendants to go out in a carriage. He walked out of the inn, boarded the carriage, and went to Zhang Xiu''s mansion.


    When the carriage arrived, Cheng Yu got out of the carriage.


    He went to the door, took out the letter and told the porter what he had come for.


    As soon as the porter heard that he was Cao Cao''s envoy, he didn''t dare to delay his time and quickly entered to report the news. Cheng Yu stands at the door, waiting quietly. Today, he was wearing a black robe. His clothes were flowing and his bearing was elegant. He was a scholar with a high reputation and erudition.


    Although he was more than 50 years old, he was not deaf, not hunched, with his head held high and his bearing was extraordinary.


    He waited quietly.


    After a while, the porter came out again and said respectfully, "follow me!"


    Cheng Yu nodded, then followed them into the room. After a while, he came to the door of the hall. The attendant signaled Cheng Yu to enter, and he turned and left.


    Cheng Yu shakes his robes and strides in.


    Entering the hall, Cheng Yu saw Zhang Xiu for the first time.


    In front of him, Zhang Xiu is very handsome, with angular cheeks and eyebrows. Especially that pair of dark and bright eyes, deep and wise, as if to see through the world.


    Although Zhang Xiu is young, it gives Cheng Yu the feeling that she is not a young child in her early twenties. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu gives him a feeling that this person has gone through vicissitudes.


    Cheng Yu''s feeling is very strange.


    It''s just that he has no time to think about it. After all, there are all kinds of wonders in the world.


    Cheng Yu strode into the station, arched his hand and said: "old Cheng Yu, I''ve met the prefect Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhong De Gong doesn''t have to be polite."


    Cheng Yu''s impression of Zhang Xiu was greatly changed by his "Zhong De Gong". Although Zhang Xiu won in succession, even could recite poems and Fu, and beat Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu was a martial artist after all.


    It''s a limitation of birth.


    Cheng Yu thinks that Zhang Xiu is a martial arts man, but Zhang Xiu respects him and calls him Zhongde Gong, which shows that Zhang Xiu is a courteous and virtuous corporal.


    This is the posture of Zhang Xiu.


    Cheng Yu said, "thank you, Tai Shou Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter with Mr. Zhongde coming from Yanzhou? You know, Cao Cao and I are antagonistic. Is Zhong De Gong not afraid to die in a foreign land when he goes deep into Nanyang County? "


    Cheng Yu''s expression is calm, not anxious, not impatient way: "the two armies are at war, do not cut the emissary.". Although Taishou Zhang was hostile to our Lord, it did not affect the communication between envoys. Zhang Tai Shou is a virtuous man. He will not kill people indiscriminately. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not necessary. If I capture Yu Jin, Cao Chun and Cao Anmin, and then detain Zhong De Gong, then I have Cao Cao''s four confidants under my command. I''m afraid Cao Cao can''t lift his head in front of me. "Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Taishou is joking."


    He knew that this was Zhang Xiu''s joking words. As a vassal, Zhang Xiu could not detain people at will.


    Otherwise, where is faith?


    This is the most basic principle of living in the world.


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu impounded Cheng Yu, and didn''t get any benefits.


    Cheng Yu stopped beating around the Bush, and said to the point: "Mr. Zhang Taishou, I''ve been sent to Nanyang in the hope of replacing my Lord with Yu Jin, Cao Chun and Cao Anmin."


    Zhang Xiu sat up straight and said in a loud voice: "whether it''s Yu Jin, or Cao Chun, or Cao Anmin, they are all tiger generals on the battlefield, capable of writing and fighting. These three people are valuable. I don''t know what conditions can be given to Cao Gong in exchange for three people? "


    Everything is conditional.


    When Cao Cao offered the right conditions, Zhang Xiu would let people go, because to ease the deadlock with Cao Cao was also conducive to Zhang Xiu''s going north.


    However, Zhang Xiu should take the initiative.


    If Cao Cao takes the initiative to seek peace, he will have to pay enough.


    Cheng Yu see Zhang Xiu did not refuse, the heart is also relieved. With a smile on his face, he said slowly, "my Lord has offered three conditions in exchange for the return of Yu Jin and other three people."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Cheng Yu leaned forward slightly and said: "first, the LORD went up to the emperor, and Zhang Taishou was the general of Zhennan."


    Zhennan general is one of the four generals.


    The greatest advantage of this position is that it is in charge of the expedition and garrison. After Zhang Xiu had the rank of Zhennan general, he had great righteousness when he fought in all directions.


    Even Liu Biao is no more than a general in Jingzhou and Zhennan. Zhang Xiu, as the prefect of Nanyang County, was given the rank of Zhennan general.


    Of course, it has to be strong enough.


    Otherwise, the title of Zhennan general is just a short slogan with no practical value.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression was indifferent and continued: "for me, it''s not very useful to have the name of Zhennan general. In this world of great strife, what we pay attention to is not ostentation and fame, but strength. With strength, everything is easy to talk about. "


    Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Taishou''s words are reasonable, but he has strength and official title. Isn''t he mutually reflected?"


    "That''s true!"


    Instead of debating, Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the second?"


    Cheng Yu said: "second, the Lord allocated 1000 war horses and presented them to Zhang Taizhou to enhance his cavalry strength. According to the Lord''s understanding of Zhang Taishou, I''m afraid you have more than a thousand cavalry. The Lord''s gift of more than a thousand horses is absolutely a timely gift for Zhang Taishou. "


    Cao Cao''s original intention was to provide food and weapons.


    The problem is that Cao Cao''s food is in short supply.


    If you take 100000 or 200000 Jin of grain to let Zhang Xiu release people, Cao Cao would be happy. The problem is, it''s absolutely impossible. So after discussing with Cheng Yu and others, Cao Cao decided to transfer 1000 horses.


    Zhang Xiu sneered in her heart.


    According to the result of his discussion with Jia Xu and others, he got at least 3000 horses. Cao Cao just sent a thousand horses. Zhang Xiu would not agree.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything for the time being. She said, "what about the third?"


    Cheng said: "the third Lord is willing to marry Zhang Yu. Cao family has a female name, Cao Jie, 28 years old, dignified, gentle and virtuous, is an excellent match. Zhang Taishou has already married, and Cao''s daughter is willing to be a concubine. "


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu''s face changed. She was very surprised.


    Cao Cao was willing to marry his daughter to him.


    It''s a big deal.


    Zhang Xiu knows about Cao Jie.


    In history, Cao Jie was the queen of Liu Xie. In order to control Liu Xie, Cao Cao married three daughters to Liu Xie at one time, among which Cao Jie was the most outstanding.


    After empress Fu was killed, Cao Jie was named empress by Liu Xie.


    Zhang Xiu was not sure, so she asked: "is Cao Jie Cao Gong''s own daughter?"


    If this festival is not the other one, isn''t it wrong?


    When Cheng Yu saw Zhang Xiu and asked, he thought there was a play and nodded: "Cao Jie is Sikong''s daughter, and Cao Jie is deeply loved by Sikong. If not, how can we show the sincerity of our Lord, and how can we count marriage? "


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart.


    Cheng Yu saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t answer, and immediately asked, "Mr. Zhang, my Lord''s offer is full of sincerity. I don''t know. What do you think of it? "

 Chapter 192

    "Not so much!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Since it is a negotiation, Zhang Xiu can not easily agree, and Cao Chun and others in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu occupied the advantage.


    Zhang Xiu won''t win this village.


    Cheng Yu hears Zhang Xiu''s words, the facial expression does not change, he also does not feel has anything. Zhang Xiu disagrees, which is also expected. If Zhang Xiu agrees directly, without any hesitation, Cheng Yu will speculate whether Zhang Xiu pretends to agree.


    You come and I go in negotiations.


    Cheng Yu inquired: "since Zhang Taishou doesn''t agree, what are your conditions?"


    "No terms."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "the key to Cao Cao''s exchange for Cao Chun and others is Cao Chun''s three men. Let''s talk about Cao Chun, Cao Anmin and Yu ban. "


    Cheng Yu frowned slightly, but said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    This is a negotiation, is Zhang Xiu take the initiative, Cheng Yu can only bear the mind, let Zhang Xiu elaborate.


    It''s no use arguing with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Duke Zhongde, Cao Chun, is he capable of being a prefect?"


    "Yes!"


    Cheng Yu answered directly.


    He knew Zhang Xiu very well. Similarly, Zhang Xiu must have a clear understanding of Cao Chun and others. When it comes to Cao Chun and others, Cheng Yu doesn''t have to lie.


    Lying is not good for negotiation.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cao Chun has at least the ability to be a prefect of a county. In my opinion, it''s OK to be a prefect. Such a person is a state. Of course, without raising the price, it is equivalent to a county. Does Zhong De accept this statement? "


    "Recognition!"


    Cheng Yu answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "which is more important, a county or 1500 horses?"


    Cheng Yu is clear about Zhang Xiu''s intention, but he doesn''t follow it down any more, saying: "there is no comparability. In a county, it may be a desolation, a mess, and the people are in dire straits. Such a county is a complete mess. It can''t compete with 1500 horses. Of course, a good county will have 1500 horses. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Zhong, we don''t have to bite words or talk about special circumstances in our negotiation. What I''m talking about is the normal situation. "


    Cheng Yu looks dignified, said: "under normal circumstances, naturally a county is heavier."


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "that''s right. What I mentioned is normal. According to the statement just now, it is equivalent to the value of Cao Chun, which exceeds the value of 1500 war horses, right? "


    Cheng Yu understood as soon as she heard it.


    He is clear about the intention of Zhang Xiu, more clearly this is Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Zhang Xiu wants to defeat him logically.


    Cheng Yu pondered over the strategy to deal with it. Without any further sophistry, he said with a straight face: "according to the theory of Zhang Taishou, the value of Cao Chun is indeed more valuable than 1500 war horses."


    Cao Chun is a great general. He is good at literature and martial arts.


    Such a person can command thousands of troops and horses, which can not be measured by 1500 horses.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the same truth, whether it is Cao Anmin or Yu ban, its ability is not weak. There is not much difference between them and Cao Chun. The value of both of them far exceeds the value of 1500 horses. "


    "These are three people."


    "Three men are worth more than 4500 horses."


    "Mr. Zhong De, my conditions are not harsh, just 4000 horses. After all, Cao Gong has given me other conditions, and I can''t advance an inch, do you think? "


    Zhang Xiu gave the conditions.


    Jia Yu mentioned at least 3000 war horses. But it''s still under negotiation and the situation hasn''t been settled yet. He wants the lion to open his mouth. At this time, is to constantly test, in case Cheng Yu agreed, Zhang Xiu will make a lot of money.


    This is the skill of negotiation..


    After hearing this, Cheng Yu''s cheek twitched slightly.


    For Cao Cao, four thousand horses were also a huge number. Even if Cao Cao could easily get the war horses, the value of 4000 war horses was immeasurable.


    To let Cao Cao take out 4000 horses is to gouge out the flesh in Cao Cao''s heart.


    Of course, the value of Cao Chun, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin is immeasurable.


    There is no comparison with the war horse.


    It''s just that Cheng Yu can''t agree. He shakes his head and says, "Zhang Taishou, it''s not like that. It''s immeasurable that the Lord will give you the post of general of Zhennan. "


    "Marshal Zhang can lead Zhennan general himself, but this is different from the appointment of the imperial court."


    "The appointment by the imperial court is orthodox."


    "And now general Zhang needs a suitable official position. The conditions given by the Lord are just right."


    After a pause, Cheng Yu said: "moreover, if the Lord marries his daughter to Zhang Taishou, it means that Zhang Taishou becomes the Lord''s son-in-law. For Zhang Taishou, this is equivalent to the use of Sikong''s reputation, but also immeasurable valueZhang Xiu said: "the problem is that I have underestimated the value of Cao Chun''s three people. Zhong De Gong, I know Cao Chun''s ability very well. He is the commander of tiger and leopard riding. Yu Jin is a great general in Cao Cao''s army. Even if it''s Cao Anmin, it''s a valiant general. I can''t make a random price for the value of three people. What do you think? "


    Cheng Yu thinks Zhang Xiu is hard to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu has been reiterating the value of Cao Chun and others, but Cheng Yu is not good at refuting.


    This is an established fact.


    If Cheng Yu denounces Cao Chun and others as worthless, why should Cao Cao replace them? Moreover, they are all famous generals in the army. They have been famous for a long time and can''t explain at all.


    Cheng Yu took a deep breath and then said, "there are so many four thousand horses, my Lord can''t promise. One thousand five hundred horses are my Lord''s bottom line. "


    "One thousand five hundred?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said: "Cao Cao''s abacus is very good. There are some war horses in our army. Why don''t I make up 1500 and find Cao Cao for two more. Not much, just two. Well, how about Xia Houdun and Xu Chu? "


    Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Taishou is joking."


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said, "1500 horses, no need to talk! If Cao Cao wants to change people, he will show his sincerity. Mr. Zhong De, I respect you. I''m patient to talk to you. In other words, Cao Cao sent other people as envoys. What he said just now is tantamount to teasing my official and being thrown out long ago. "


    "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."


    Cheng Yu thanks. He knows that it''s Zhang Xiu''s intention to do it, and it''s to elevate him so that Cheng Yu can''t raise the conditions.


    But Cheng Yu has to mention it.


    The interests of Cao Cao are the most important. Cheng Yu must strive for them.


    Cheng Yu knew that Zhang Xiu had enough confidence to sit in Diaoyutai. When he came to seek the sum, he was in a disadvantageous position. After thinking about it, he said once again, "Mr. Zhang, I won''t say much. Two thousand horses. That''s my bottom line. If you go beyond that, even if you agree, you can''t go back to Yanzhou. "


    "The bottom line again?"


    Zhang Xiu hears Cheng Yu''s words and knows that it''s an old fox. She makes a little deduction.


    This is definitely not the bottom line.


    Cheng Yu said, "this is the bottom line."


    Zhang xiudao: "even if this is your bottom line, it is not Cao Cao''s bottom line."


    Cheng Yu said, "that''s the bottom line of my Lord."


    Zhang Xiu waved her big sleeve and said: "whether it''s Zhongde Gong''s bottom line or Cao Cao''s bottom line, I don''t accept it. I will not accept such conditions. "


    Cheng Yu sighed.


    Zhang Xiu is too difficult to deal with. He tried to persuade her, but it didn''t help.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not easy for Zhong De Gong to come to Yanzhou. I know that Cao Cao is also sincere. Three thousand horses are my last line. If Mr. Zhong is not willing to negotiate, please leave. If you want to make a counter-offer, please leave


    Cheng Yu frowned.


    In fact, three thousand horses are Cao Cao''s bottom line.


    After discussion, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xia Houyuan and others believed that it would be impossible to replace Cao Chun, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin with three men and one or two thousand horses if they were all in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Three thousand horses is the bottom line.


    As a counselor of Cao Cao, Cheng Yu wanted to fight for more benefits for Cao Cao, and didn''t want Cao Cao to lose too much.


    But Zhang Xiu is too smart.


    Buy it now, you can accurately judge Cao Cao''s bottom line.


    Cheng Yu didn''t agree immediately, and said again, "is there really no room for maneuver? The LORD sent me here with sincerity, not to test anything. Please understand my Lord''s difficulty. "

 Chapter 193

    "The difficulty of understanding?"


    Zhang Xiu heard Cheng Yu''s words, suddenly laughed, strong way: "I''m good in Nanyang County, also don''t provoke anyone, but, Cao Cao suddenly led the soldiers to kill."


    "Did he ever understand my difficulty?"


    "Mr. Zhong De, I don''t want to hear more nonsense. After all, it''s all those words, nothing new. According to the first and third rules you said, plus 3000 war horses, I agree to release Cao Chun


    Zhang Xiu said: "otherwise, don''t talk about it!"


    "Alas..."


    But Cheng Yu couldn''t help sighing.


    Three thousand horses, for Cao Cao, is a piece of meat in his heart, which will have a great impact. If Yu Jin, Cao Chun and Cao Anmin had not been captured, Cao Cao would not have paid such a high price.


    This attack on Zhang Xiu, the loss is enormous.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Cheng Yu quietly.


    He was sure that Cheng Yu would agree. For Cao Cao, three thousand horses were very painful, but they would not hurt his muscles and bones. The so-called first and third articles have no influence on Cao Cao.


    He took a sip of tea from the teacup in front of him and waited quietly.


    Cheng Yu was silent for a moment and said, "OK, I promise!"


    "Cheerfulness!"


    Zhang Xiu answers with a smile.


    With 3000 horses, the cavalry of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu can expand again. Of course, raising horses has always been a huge consumption, but Zhang Xiu has money and food, even if only Nanyang County can afford to raise 4000 horses.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s rare for Mr. Zhongde to come to Yuyang county. I''ll hold a banquet to help him clean up the dust."


    "No need!"


    Cheng Yu shakes her head and refuses.


    He did not dare to delay, and immediately said some details about the implementation of the treaty by both sides.


    When Cheng Yu returned to Xudu, he would take the imperial edict, war horse and Cao Jie to the border of Nanyang County. Zhang Xiu also had to send the three people to the border.


    The exchange between the two sides is regarded as the completion of the task.


    "Goodbye!"


    After Cheng Yu finished, she stood up and prepared to leave. But the moment he stood up, his body was weak, and his eyes suddenly darkened. With a plop, he fell to the ground.


    The whole person fainted.


    "Somebody


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she was also shocked and gave a quick order.


    Soldiers enter, lift Cheng Yu up and go straight to the back yard. Zhang Xiu pinches Cheng Yu. After a long time, Cheng Yu wakes up, but he is not in a good spirit.


    Zhang Xiu is relieved to see Cheng Yu come to life.


    If Cheng Yu died in Yuyang County, even if Zhang Xiu said that Cheng Yu was killed by himself, Cao Cao would not believe it. He would think that Zhang Xiu had killed Cheng Yu, and that Zhang Xiu would not be able to wash her if she jumped into the Yellow River.


    I wake up.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhong De Gong, how do you feel now?"


    Cheng Yu is an optimist. He said with a smile, "I''m really sorry to worry about Zhang Taishou. This is an old problem, that is, after sitting for a long time, you will feel dizzy when you stand up. This time, because of old age and negligence, but it''s not a big problem


    Zhang Xiu said: "in Yuyang County, there is a miracle Doctor Zhang Zhongjing. Mr. Zhong De, wait a moment. I have arranged for someone to invite Dr. Zhang. He will come soon. "


    After Cheng Yu fell, Zhang Xiu sent for Zhang Zhongjing.


    After all, Zhang Zhongjing''s medical skills are good, and he doesn''t want anything wrong with Cheng Yu, so that Cao Cao won''t shirk his responsibility.


    Cheng Yu said, "please, Mr. Zhang."


    "You''re welcome," Zhang said


    They didn''t talk about anything. After a while, Zhang Zhongjing entered the room. He saw Cheng Yu lying on the bed, inquired about Cheng Yu''s situation, and felt his pulse for him.


    After half a sound, Zhang Zhongjing said: "the pulse shows that there is no big problem. When you get up after sitting for a long time, it''s dark in front of you and you have vertigo. It''s stagnation of Qi and blood, and lack of blood gas. Old people, from time to time with one or two shenpian, is conducive to supplement qi and blood


    Cheng Yu said: "thank you, Doctor Zhang!"


    As an old man, and often used medicine, Cheng Yu knows his own situation. From time to time, he has three diseases and two pains, which is normal. Although he has been suffering from minor diseases, he has not been seriously ill.


    Zhang Zhongjing prescribed some tonics and left.


    Cheng Yu''s spirit had almost recovered, so he got up from his bed and said, "time is pressing. I can''t delay. Mr. Zhang, goodbye


    Zhang xiudao said, "is Zhong De Gong no longer resting?"


    "No!"


    Cheng Yu shakes his head, gets up and goes out.


    Zhang Xiu personally sent Cheng Yu out of the yard, and then sent Cheng Yu to the gate of the prefect''s house, and watched Cheng Yu walk into the carriage.


    Cheng Yu went to the carriage, one foot raised, ready to board the carriage, but stopped. He turned to face Zhang Xiu, folded his hands, bowed his hand to Zhang Xiu, then got up and went to the carriage without looking back.Zhang Xiu returned a gift and turned to enter the mansion.


    Now Cheng Yu''s impression of Zhang Xiu has changed 90 degrees, and thinks that Zhang Xiu is a good person.


    Regardless of their respective positions, regardless of the fight between the two sides, Cheng Yu simply looked from the perspective of people. Although Zhang Xiu was young, she was courteous, virtuous, and enthusiastic. She was a good person.


    This is Cheng Yu''s impression.


    He took the carriage and left without returning to the inn.


    Prefect''s mansion, in the hall.


    Zhang Xiu invited Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Pang Tong and Jia Xu to talk about the result of the negotiation with Cheng Yu.


    Pang Tong said, "Congratulations, Lord. When Cao Cao went south to Nanyang County, his power was unparalleled, and countless officials were terrified. But when we fought Cao Cao, we got not only 3000 horses, but also a beautiful woman. The most important thing is that the Lord, as a general in the south of the town, occupied the great justice of the imperial court, which can be said to be a great harvest. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "according to Cheng Yu, Cao Jie is Cao Cao''s own daughter. Cao Cao was willing to let his daughter marry as a concubine. He really made a big bet. But the Lord also needs to be careful that Cao Jie is Cao Cao''s inner man. "


    Jia Xu has always been on the worst side of his thinking.


    Consider the bad first, and then the good.


    It''s about preparing for the worst.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "Wenhe, don''t worry. I know."


    When Chen Dao heard that there were 3000 war horses, he was excited and said, "Lord, when Cao Cao''s 3000 war horses are sent, is it the end general who will make the unified arrangement, or what''s his plan?"


    With a big wave of her hand, Zhang Xiu said boldly, "all of them will be incorporated into the Langya camp, and it''s up to you to make arrangements."


    "Thank you


    Chen Dao was excited.


    The number of soldiers in the 1000 Langya battalion is a little less, so they can''t really give full play to the advantages of cavalry, and their combat effectiveness is not strong enough. If we add another 3000 horses, the strength of Langya camp will be greatly enhanced.


    Zhang Xiu saw everyone happy and continued: "I went back to my house two days ago and heard a piece of good news. Yueying is already pregnant and will have a child early next year. "


    "Congratulations, Lord!"


    Jia Xu first congratulated Zhang Xiu.


    In Jia Xu''s opinion, the whole group is stable only when Zhang Xiu has offspring. In the case of Zhang Xiu has an heir, even if there is something wrong with Zhang Xiu, someone can inherit the foundation without falling apart.


    After Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao, he did not know when to begin. Jia Xu no longer addressed Zhang Xiu as "the Lord", but as the Lord.


    Jia Xu approved Zhang Xiu.


    Others, too, congratulated one after another.


    They all congratulated Zhang Xiu.


    After some joy, Gan Ning took the initiative to say: "Lord, now it''s March, and the war with Cao Cao is over. According to the plan laid down last year, we should go north to Guanzhong and attack the Xiliang army. When shall we leave? "


    After thinking for a while, Zhang Xiu said, "if you want to go north, you have to wait for things involving Cao Cao to be solved. That is to say, when Cao Cao gave him 3000 horses and fulfilled the agreement, he would lead the army northward. "


    Jia Xu said, "I have a suggestion for humble position."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "please, sir."


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord has just returned to Yuyang county. He can have a good rest for a few days. After all the arrangements were made, the Lord mobilized his army to the north and stationed at the border of Luyang County, waiting for Cao Cao to send his horses and Cao Jie. After the exchange, the Lord can turn around and attack Guanzhong directly. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    Jia Xu''s suggestion is a feasible strategy, which will save some time.


    Zhang Xiu made arrangements quickly according to Jia Xu''s suggestion.

 Chapter 194

    Jingzhou, Xiangyang.


    The prefecture.


    Liu Biao got the news that Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao and won a great victory, but he was also relieved. Cao Cao sent troops to attack Jingzhou and Nanyang County. Once Zhang Xiu couldn''t stop him, Cao Cao would go south and Xiangyang, where he lived, would fall into the flames of war.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s victory was too easy. He captured Cao Cao''s three generals and killed more than ten thousand Cao soldiers. Liu Biao was afraid of such a victory.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang to marry Huang Yueying, bringing her relationship with Liu Biao closer. In addition, from time to time, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao would beat the drum and say that Zhang Xiu was not a threat. Liu Biao was quite relieved.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s victory, Liu Biao''s inner fear, once again jumped up.


    This is a contradictory mentality.


    On the one hand, Liu Biao hoped that Zhang Xiu would win and block Cao Cao''s attack. On the other hand, Liu Biao doesn''t want Zhang Xiu''s strength to be too strong. He even hopes that Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao will lose each other, or that Zhang Xiu will win miserably.


    In a word, Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards watch is rather complicated.


    Liu Biao sat in the room, his heart was too slow to calm down, and his eyes became more and more fierce, so he arranged for someone to invite Kuai Yue.


    Soon, Kuai Yue entered the study. When he saw Liu Biao, he bowed to him and sat down.


    Liu Biao asked: "in different degrees, what do you think of Zhang Xiu''s victory over Cao Cao?"


    Kuai Yue thought about it in his heart.


    Immediately, he understood.


    Liu Biao must have a sense of crisis again, for fear that Zhang Xiu would turn to Xiangyang, so he called him over.


    Kuai Yue''s expression was calm, and he said: "it''s a good thing for Jingzhou that Zhang Xiu won a great victory. Cao Cao had been defeated in the war and could not go south for a long time. But Zhang Xiu won the battle, and I don''t know if it will expand. "


    He did it on purpose.


    As long as Liu Biao has an opinion on Zhang Xiu, he will certainly follow Kuai Yue''s words and express his inner thoughts.


    This is Kuai Yue''s trial.


    Sure enough, Liu Biao couldn''t wait to say, "I''m just worried about Zhang Xiu''s expansion. If he defeated Cao Cao, he would not go north to Guanzhong, but stay in Nanyang County. I''m afraid he has some ideas about Jingzhou. "


    Kuai Yue said with a smile, "it''s not difficult to solve this problem."


    Liu Biao said: "how to say?"


    Kuai Yue replied: "the Lord can send a person as an envoy to Yuyang county to reward Zhang Xiu. During the dinner, let the envoys ask, you can feel Zhang Xiu''s plan. If Zhang Xiu still goes north, there will be no problem. If Zhang Xiu defeats Cao Cao, she is not going to go north to Guanzhong. I''m afraid she really has an idea about Jingzhou. "


    In fact, Kuai Yue is not worried about Zhang Xiu.


    He has long been informed that Zhang Xiu''s goal this year is Guanzhong, which is a long established plan. Under such a premise, even if Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao, it was impossible to change her plan.


    After listening to Kuai Yue''s suggestion, Liu Biao praised him and said, "what he said in different degrees is very reasonable."


    So is his plan.


    I want to test Zhang Xiu and see how she thinks about it.


    Kuai Yue laughed and said, "I heard from the Huang family that Huang Yueying was pregnant. As Zhang Xiu''s uncle, the LORD sent people to Yuyang county to celebrate. That''s normal. One is reward, and the other is congratulations. No matter what, there are plenty of reasons to go north. "


    Liu Biao was surprised and said, "Zhang Xiu has a wife?"


    Kuai Yue said, "yes!"


    Liu Biao''s eyes narrowed. Suddenly, a cold light flashed through his turbid eyes and said, "strange degree, can you let Huang Yueying go south to Xiangyang to raise her baby? After all, Zhang Xiu''s parents have died, and no one takes care of Huang Yueying. It''s reasonable for Yueying to have a baby in Xiangyang. "


    Kuai Yue sneered.


    Liu Biao thought very well. He said that he wanted Huang Yueying to come to Xiangyang to raise the baby. In fact, he wanted Huang Yueying to be a hostage.


    It''s obviously impossible.


    Kuai Yue said decisively: "the Lord knows something. Just two days ago, Huang Yueying''s mother had gone north to Yuyang county. It is said that Huang Yueying wrote to ask her to take care of her. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao sighed.


    But he still did not give up, and said: "heterodox, is there no other way? If Huang Yueying can come to Xiangyang, it will do us a lot of good but no harm. "


    "No!"


    Kuai Yue shook his head and answered.


    He has a plan, and it''s impossible for him to say it. Because Kuai Yue is loyal to Liu Biao on the surface, in fact, the Kuai family has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu and is on Zhang Xiu''s side.


    Kuai Yue''s eyes were solemn and reminded: "Lord, we and Zhang Xiu have finally relaxed our relationship. Once the relationship gets stiff, it''s not good. Please think twice. "


    Liu Biao gave a dry smile and said, "I''m just talking."


    Kuai Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"Liu Biao changed his mind and stopped talking about Huang Yueying. He said, "I''m afraid you''re the best person to go north to test Zhang Xiu. Cai Mao is too stupid. Maybe he will make a fool of himself when he goes to Yuyang county. "


    Kuai Yue said: "humble duty, obey me!"


    "Go


    Liu Biao waved his hand, but there was a strong disappointment on his face.


    Kuai Yue didn''t speak any more, so he got up and left the prefecture. He went to the government office first and handed over the government affairs. After all, a trip to Nanyang County would take a long time. He can''t let government affairs stop, he must do a good job in handover.


    After the arrangement, Kuai Yue returns to the mansion.


    When he entered the study, he saw Kuai Liang, who was reading a book. He saluted and said, "brother!"


    Kuai Liang said, "what''s the matter?"


    Kuai Yue immediately said about going north to Yuyang county. He also talked about the conversation with Liu Biao. He shook his head and said with a smile, "Liu Biao is afraid of Zhang Taishou after all. It seems that after Taishou Zhang seizes Guanzhong, there may be conflicts. "


    Kuai Liang squinted and said, "the so-called conflict is unlikely."


    "Liu Biao, I don''t have the courage."


    "Today''s Liu Biao not only defends against Zhang Taishou, but also needs Zhang Taishou as a northern barrier. When Zhang Taishou takes Guanzhong and has the foundation, Liu Biao will turn into a full guard against Zhang Taishou


    "But at that time, did Liu Biao dare to go to war with Zhang Taishou?"


    "No way!"


    "Liu Biao can''t have the courage to go to war. He will definitely be a turtle. As long as Zhang Taishou doesn''t go south to attack Xiangyang, Liu Biao can''t send troops even if he''s afraid. "


    Kuai Liang''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said, "if it is in peace and prosperity, Liu Biao is a good minister who can govern one side. But this is a time of great struggle. If you don''t have the enterprising spirit or the ambition to fight against the world, you will lose all the people. "


    Kuai Yue said, "what you said is true."


    He agreed with Kuai Liang''s analysis.


    Liu Biao is just a conservative man who lacks courage and initiative.


    Kuai Yue changed his words and said, "I''m looking for my elder brother. I''m going to take the opportunity of going north to send a batch of armor and weapons to prefect Zhang. Another batch of weapons were forged in the family and stored for a long time. Take this opportunity to Yuyang county. What do you think, brother? "


    "It works!"


    Kuai Liang nodded.


    Immediately, Kuai Liang took out a letter from the desk and handed it to Kuai Yue.


    Kuai Yue said, "what is this?"


    Kuai Liang replied: "it is recorded in this letter that the talents who are living in Jingzhou are all unsuccessful people. After you go to the north, give the letter to Zhang Taishou, and let him try to get all these talents under his command. Although the Kuai family is in the dark, it is not useless. The Kuai family is no less useful than the Pang and Huang families. "


    Kuai Yue took it and quickly looked through it. Some of the people he was familiar with, but most of them were not familiar with. He asked, "brother, are you sure these people are talents?"


    Kuai Liang nodded.


    Kuai Yue didn''t doubt it, so he put away the letter and said, "I''ll pack up and be ready to leave."


    "Go


    Kuai Liang waved his hand.


    After Kuai Yue left, Kuai Liang sat alone in his study, thinking about Zhang Xiu''s current situation. Today, when Zhang Xiu goes north, Kuai Liang agrees. Only by occupying Guanzhong, can Zhang Xiu get ahead.


    Those who get the Guanzhong pass get the world!

 Chapter 195

    Cao Jie sat in the yard. Suddenly, he was a little frustrated and became tired. He no longer had the leisure of reading. She always convinced herself that she wanted to calm down and not think about getting married.


    But I can''t help thinking about it.


    She can''t control herself. After all, getting married is a lifelong matter. How can she put it aside easily? When Cao Jie''s thoughts were flying, another attendant came in and bowed himself and said, "girl, Sikong, please go to the study."


    Cao Jie said, "I know."


    She returned to her room, changed her formal clothes and went to Cao Cao''s study.


    It has been four or five days since Cao Cao returned to Xu.


    These days, Cao Cao has been busy dealing with the affairs of the central government. Because Cao Cao was defeated by Zhang Xiu, he was defeated at the expense of his troops, and the situation in the court was turbulent. Officials sharpened their heads and wanted to step on Cao Cao to climb up.


    They all intended to suppress Cao Cao.


    But these people have great ambitions and few talents, and they have no ability.


    After Cao Cao returned to Xudu, with the help of Xunzhou and Xunyou, he made a bold move. In a short time, he calmed down the chaos in the court, restored stability, and did not return to the previous chaos.


    Cheng Yu has returned to Xudu and returned to Cao Cao, saying the agreed terms.


    Cao Cao''s heart ached when he learned that Zhang Xiu wanted 3000 war horses. It was 3000 war horses, not a small number.


    But he had no choice.


    After all, Cao Chun and other three should be replaced.


    Cao Cao can only hold his nose, he arranged for Cheng Yu to be responsible for the preparation. Cao Cao, who had finished his work, thought of Cao Jie in his spare time, and then arranged for someone to invite Cao Jie.


    After all, Cao Jie is his daughter. Before he leaves, Cao Cao has something to say to Cao Jie.


    Cao Jie came outside the study and banged on the door.


    "Come in!"


    Cao Cao''s hoarse voice came from the room. Recently, Cao Cao was depressed, his body was a little uncomfortable, his voice was a little hoarse, and his cheeks were full of vicissitudes.


    Creak!


    Cao Jie opened the door and entered it.


    She wore a long white dress, dignified and virtuous, very magnanimous. See Cao Cao, Cao Jie bowed to Cao Cao salute.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "sit down!"


    "Thank you, father!"


    Cao Jie answered with a smile, lifted his robe and sat down.


    Cao Cao''s face was very serious, but when he saw his daughter, he showed a smile and said, "do you know the news that you will marry Zhang Xiu for your father?"


    Cao Jie said, "I already know."


    Cao Cao asked, "what do you think?"


    Cao Jie said: "marriage matters, parents'' orders, matchmaker''s words. The daughter obeys the arrangement of her father. "


    Cao Cao was satisfied with Cao Jie''s answer.


    He also has three unmarried daughters, Cao Xian, Cao Jie and Cao Hua. But Cao Xian is very indulgent and not very smart. He is not liked by Cao Cao. Cao Hua is too young.


    Only Cao Jie, who is knowledgeable, gentle, virtuous and intelligent, is Cao Cao''s favorite daughter.


    He once thought about marrying Cao Xian to Zhang Xiu, but as soon as he thought about it, he denied it to Cao Cao. If Cao Xian goes to Zhang Xiu''s side, I''m afraid he will be rejected by Zhang Xiu and think that he has nothing to do with Cao Cao''s teaching daughter.


    Only Cao Jie is different.


    Cao Jie has a general knowledge and is clever. There are two advantages in marrying Cao Jie to Zhang Xiu.


    On the one hand, it is to show his family education of Cao Cao and let Zhang Xiu know his daughter''s kindness; on the other hand, after Cao Jie got married, even if he married his husband again, Cao''s family really encountered a crisis of life and death, and Cao Jie always cared about some old feelings.


    This is Cao Cao''s plan.


    For the time being, it doesn''t work.


    Cao Cao put away his inner thoughts and continued: "I''m looking for you for my father to talk about marrying Zhang Xiu."


    Cao Jie said, "please show me your father."


    Cao Cao''s eyes gradually became sharp. He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "if you marry Zhang Xiu, you are a member of Zhang Jia. Since then, it has not been the Cao family. "


    "Married from husband, that''s it."


    "It''s true that to marry you to Zhang Xiu as a father is to marry Zhang Xiu to consolidate the relationship between the two sides."


    "Similarly, as a father, I hope you have a good life."


    "Although Zhang Xiu is young, she has outstanding ability and is extraordinary. If you marry him, even if you are a concubine, you will not be buried. After you come to Zhang Xiu''s side, I don''t expect you to do anything for my father. You should give priority to Zhang Jia in everything, and spread the branches and leaves for Zhang Jia. "


    "Cao''s daughter should have the heart and spirit of Cao''s daughter."


    Cao Cao said in a voice: "you are my father''s favorite daughter. I hope you will have a good life in the future. You have been at the father''s knees for more than ten years, but the father has never taught you anything. The only thing you can do is to make sure that you are well fed and well clothed. Since then, when you come to Zhang Xiu, you have to rely on yourself, be gentle and virtuous, and manage your family business. "


    Cao Jie was a little sour.


    As the daughter of Cao Cao, she knew how strong Cao Cao was. As Cao Cao said, after Cao Cao let her marry, he took Zhang Jia as his family.This is Cao Cao''s insistence.


    Cao Jie said: "I will obey my father''s instruction."


    After Cao Cao gave some orders, he said again: "soon, Cheng Yu will take a team to escort you to the border. You are going to Nanyang. I don''t know how long it will take before you have time to come back. Go see your mother and spend more time with her. "


    "Here it is


    Cao Jie got up and left.


    Although Cao Cao regarded her as a marriage partner, Cao Jie didn''t have much resentment.


    This is the result of Cao''s daughter.


    On the contrary, it was Cao Cao''s words that moved Cao Jie. She took a deep breath, got out of the study and went straight to her mother''s backyard. I don''t know when I will come back to Nanyang.


    On Cao Jie''s way to his mother''s yard, I met Cao ang on the way.


    Among all the children of the Cao family, Cao ang is a warm elder brother, both male and female. He cared for his brothers and sisters, sympathized with his relatives, and was very kind to every brother and sister.


    Everyone likes Cao ang, too.


    Cao Jie began to smile on his face and saluted: "I''ve seen you, brother."


    Cao ang looked at Cao Jie in front of him and opened his mouth. Then he wanted to talk and stop. He reached out to touch Cao Jie''s head and sighed: "my little sister has grown up and grown up. When you marry Zhang Xiu, it''s the elder brother who hurt you. "


    Cao Jie said, "what do you mean, brother?"


    Cao ang said: "my father and Zhang Xiu were at war. Cao Anmin and I were pioneers, but at the beginning, I was defeated, which led to Cao Anmin''s capture and made a very bad start. My father''s subsequent defeat is my responsibility. But for me, my father might not have been defeated. If it wasn''t for me, you don''t have to marry far away. "


    Cao ang is very remorseful now.


    He thought that his defeat led Cao Cao to give Zhang Xiu 3000 horses. Cao Zhi and Cao Cao married his beloved little sister to Zhang Xiu. Cao Ang''s heart was very subdued and remorseful.


    When Cao Jie heard this, he had nothing to blame Cao ang for. Even if Cao Cao is invincible, when she is older, she will be married to someone she doesn''t know.


    In fact, there is no difference in getting married.


    Cao Jie comforted: "brother, victory and defeat are common affairs of soldiers. You don''t have to care. Moreover, when I get to the age of marriage, it''s the same for me to marry anyone. To marry Zhang Xiu is to marry someone with ability. "


    It''s the same to marry anyone. Cao ang is even more guilty.


    Cao Jie added: "brother, father is a strong man. You must not show such a woman''s attitude in front of your father. I''m just getting married, not going to die. Why do you blame yourself so much, elder brother? "


    In turn, she comforted Cao ang.


    When she was a child, Cao ang loved her very much and treated her very well. She kept all this in mind.


    Hearing Cao Jie''s words, Cao ang shook his head and said with a smile, "originally I came to comfort my little sister. Unexpectedly, I let her comfort me and make her laugh."


    Cao Jie said: "brother, if you really love me, what kind of person is Zhang Xiu? How he behaves. "


    She has never met Zhang Xiu, but Cao ang has.


    It''s not easy to ask Cao Cao about this, but it''s OK to ask Cao ang.


    Cao ang pondered for a moment, and said: "regardless of their respective positions, Zhang Xiu is a great talent. In a short period of time in Nanyang County, he has laid a solid foundation. "


    "It''s not simple."


    "In particular, Zhang Xiu''s use of military force is haunted by miracles. Even the father suffered a great loss. What''s more, Zhang Xiu''s mouth is extremely tricky. "


    Cao ang said: "although I hate Zhang Xiu, I hate her to the bone. But there is no denying that Zhang Xiu is really talented. "


    "I see!"


    Cao Jie felt a little relieved.


    Although he expected Zhang Xiu, five big three rough, is a burly man. But after listening to Cao Ang''s words, he also knows that even if Zhang Xiu is big and strong, she is also a man of coarse and fine.


    Cao ang said, "if you can relax, I will be relieved."


    Cao Jie said: "thank you, brother!"


    Without saying goodbye to Cao, she left and went to her mother''s yard.

 Chapter 196

    Zhang Xiu took a rest in Yuyang County for some time. When Huang Yueying''s mother arrived in Yuyang County, he set out North and went to Luyang county again. After all, he had to exchange hostages at the border of Luyang county.


    This time Zhang Xiu went north, still led 20000 troops.


    The normal number of elite soldiers under his command will be maintained for the time being, and more of them are auxiliary soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu was accompanied by two generals, Gan Ning and Chen Zhi, as well as Pang Tong and Jia Xu, who acted as counselors and counsellors for Zhang Xiu at any time.


    Twenty thousand elites are already a powerful force.


    The army went all the way north.


    When Zhang Xiu went to Luyang County in the north, he had already begun to send sentries. First, he went to Guanzhong to get familiar with the situation of Sili area and the strength of Xiliang army in Chang''an and Luoyang.


    Only when you know yourself and the other can you win a hundred battles.


    Zhang Xiu must find out the situation of the Xiliang army, otherwise it is not good to enter Guanzhong in a panic.


    After all, there''s time right now.


    When Zhang Xiu led his troops to the north, Jia Xu was thinking about the tactics to deal with the generals of the central and Western Liang army. It was not long for him to be under Zhang Xiu''s command. Before he came, he had been in Guanzhong and knew the situation of the Liangjun army in Guanzhong.


    Now Guanzhong is in chaos.


    The generals of the Xiliang army, big and small, were on their own.


    There is no unified arrangement.


    There is no unified army.


    They all attack each other.


    Among the biggest warlords in Xiliang, there are only three left: Li Xi, Guo Si and Duan Lu. The rest of the Xiliang army are not to worry about. But of the three, Guo Si is the weakest, unable to compete with Li and Duan.


    The strongest is Duan simmer.


    The reason is that when Liu Xie left Chang''an and went to Luoyang, he was attacked by Li Xi and others.


    Duan Xun was different. Although he was also the Ministry of Dong Zhuo, he devoted himself to serving the emperor and won the praise of Liu Xie and the Chinese military officers and generals of the court. In addition, Cao Cao wanted to use Duan Xun''s power to wipe out the Xiliang army, so he sent someone to contact Duan Xun and secretly supported Duan Xun, hoping that Duan Xun would return to the court.


    Cao Cao''s many allies, and Duan''s reputation is good, so the troops under his command are not weak, but also growing.


    On the contrary, Li He, who was once the most powerful, was much weaker because he was overbearing, arrogant and domineering. In addition, he failed to pursue Liu Xie for several times and lost his general after several battles.


    This is what Jia Xu knew when he left Guanzhong.


    Jia Xu is not sure what the situation is. However, based on some of the information he learned in the past, Jia Xu was able to make a response arrangement and make a general judgment.


    Towards noon, the troops were stationed and recuperated.


    Jia Xu got up and came to Zhang Xiu. He bowed to Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "Lord, I have something to report."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Zhong De, please say it."


    Jia Xu said slowly: "although we still have to rely on sentinels to get information about the central and Western Liang army, we know the general situation of the Western Liang army. After thinking about his humble duty, there may be a way to easily enter Guanzhong without a single soldier. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the plan?"


    Jia Xu said, "the false way is to attack Guo."


    The purpose of the so-called "false Dao cutting Guo" is, on the surface, to pass through a and then to destroy B. After B is destroyed, the troops will be transferred and company a will be destroyed together. Or, in the name of borrowing from the other party, destroy the other party.


    In history, Liu Bei''s entry into Sichuan was a copy of the stratagem of attacking the Guo State.


    Zhang Xiu a listen, general had cognition, way: "how to arrange concretely?"


    Jia Xu replied: "in the Xiliang army, Guo is the weakest. Under the pressure of Li Xi and Duan Lu, he has become increasingly difficult. Under such a premise, if the Lord contacted Guo Si, expressed his willingness to form an alliance with him, and led his troops into Guanzhong to help Guo Si stabilize the situation and eliminate Li Xi and Duan Yao, Guo Si would certainly agree. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said with a smile: "I understand your plan. First, he made an alliance with Guo Si to destroy the Xiliang army in Guanzhong. After unifying Guanzhong, we will deal with Guo Si again, right? "


    "Yes


    Jia Xu answered directly.


    He continued: "the Lord knows the situation of Wuguan. As the gateway to the south of Chang''an, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. It will be very difficult to attack Wuguan by force. If Guo Si took the initiative to open Wuguan and welcome the Lord to enter, the army could drive straight into Guanzhong. It will not be difficult to sweep Guanzhong. "


    "Well, that''s it."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "but this plan requires people to go to Guanzhong to lobby Guo Si. Otherwise, the plan will not be implemented. "


    "But it is


    Jia Xu took the initiative to say: "under the Lord''s command, those who are most familiar with the situation in Guanzhong, and who are more familiar with Li Xi and Guo Si, are only humble. This time, he lobbied Guo Si and was willing to go. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Guanzhong is too chaotic. If you go to Guanzhong, it will be quite dangerous."


    Jia Xu said: "it''s just a small matter, not enough to mention."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "if you want to go to Guanzhong, I won''t stop you. But when you go to Guanzhong, I''ll let Gan Ning go with you to protect your safety. ""Thank you


    Jia Xu gave thanks with his fists, and felt more steadfast in his heart.


    He knew Guo Si''s situation very well, and now in Guo Si''s army, even including Guo Si himself, it was not Gan Ning''s opponent. With Ganning''s protection, his safety is no problem.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "when will you start, sir?"


    Jia Xu replied: "the earlier we start, the better. We have passed Wan County, and we will arrive at Luyang County in the near future. I plan to turn to the West now and enter Guanzhong from Wuguan. "


    "Please don''t worry, my Lord. I will come back from Guanzhong as soon as possible."


    "Slow is two months, fast is one month."


    "At that time, the Lord can go north to Guanzhong. During this period of time, we have to ask the Lord to stay in Nanyang County for the time being and wait for the news of his humble position. "


    Jia Xu gave suggestions.


    This is his adjustment to the original plan, but it is more conducive to Zhang Xiu''s attack on Guanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Mr. hard."


    Jia Xu said: "it''s not hard. It''s the duty of humble duty."


    Now that he has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, especially since Zhang Xiu has a sign of being a master, he hopes that Zhang Xiu can get a foothold in Guanzhong early and become one of the princes in the world, and finally have a chance to sweep the world.


    Zhang Xiu said some polite words again, but she didn''t say any more.


    After lunch, the army went on.


    However, he and his troops are no longer going to Guanzhong with him.


    Zhang Xiu is all the way north.


    When the army arrived at the county seat of Luyang County, Zhang Xiu met Lu GUI, listened to Lu GUI''s report on the situation of Luyang County, and then continued on her way. When Zhang Xiu arrived in Lushan, Lushan was prosperous again.


    Coal mining continues.


    Although the weather is getting warmer and anthracite is no longer available, it is still being mined.


    This is a storage mine.


    When it comes to this winter, it can be taken out for further use.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay in Lushan. She continued to go north. After crossing Lianqiao, she soon came to the border of Luyang county and camped two miles away from the junction with Yanzhou.


    Zhang Xiu arrives and waits in place.


    Time goes by day.


    In late March, Zhang Xiu got information from the sentinel that Cheng Yu, as Cao Cao''s envoy, came to the border of Luyang county with his team and Cao Jie.


    Before Cheng Yu''s army arrived, Kuai Yue went to the border first.


    When Kuai Yue set out from Xiangyang to Yuyang County, Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu had just been on the expedition for a few days. Kuai Yue handed over the armor and weapons he had brought to Xu Shu, and he went up all the way.


    Take a carriage and drive quickly.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the border of Yuyang County, Kuai Yue followed closely. He came to the gate of the camp, reported by the soldiers, soon, under the guidance of the soldiers, came to Zhang Xiu''s Chinese army tent.


    Kuai Yue arched his hand and said, "I''ve seen you."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Mr. Yidu, you don''t need to be polite. You come from Xiangyang and go all the way to Luyang county. I don''t know what''s important?"

 Chapter 197

    Kuai Yue replied, "there are three things to do in this trip to the north."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Kuai Yue replied: "the first thing is that Liu Biao was afraid of Zhang''s strength and worried that Zhang would go south to attack Xiangyang when he learned that Zhang was fighting Cao Cao


    "Although I tried my best to persuade Zhang Taishou that he would not go south to attack Xiangyang, Liu Biao was not at ease and asked me to go north to test whether you would go south in the name of celebrating Huang Yueying''s pregnancy and congratulating Zhang Taishou."


    Kuai Yue didn''t hide it.


    He spoke directly about Liu Biao''s intention.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Liu Biao is too suspicious."


    Kuai Yue said: "before, when Zhang went south to Xiangyang to marry Huang Yueying, he stabilized Liu Biao and made him feel at ease. It''s just that Zhang Taishou''s victory has won a great victory. Therefore, Liu Biao is afraid of your strength. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "when Mr. Yidu returned to Xiangyang, he told Liu Biao that I would not attack Xiangyang. According to the established plan, I will go north to Guanzhong. "


    Kuai Yue said, "I understand!"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the second thing?"


    Kuai Yue said: "during the time when Zhang Taishou went north, the Kuai family produced a number of armor and weapons. This time I went north and took weapons and armour to Yuyang County by caravan. I gave them all to Xu Shu. "


    Zhang Xiu was very happy and said, "the great kindness of the Kuai family, Zhang Xiu is very grateful."


    Kuai Yue said, "you are welcome."


    Zhang Xiu said again, "what''s the third thing?"


    Kuai Yue took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to the desk in front of Zhang Xiu, and said, "this is the talent that my brother sent his family members to search for for for the Empress Dowager Zhang when he was idle at home."


    "All of these people are talented, or they have ambition, or they live in seclusion."


    "My brother said that if Zhang Taishou wanted to break through his foundation, he had to have enough talents. That''s why he arranged people to inquire and found these talents. Everyone''s situation is clearly recorded, and everyone''s residential address is also recorded in detail. "


    Kuai Yue said: "if Zhang Taishou had time, he would meet these people earlier and strive to collect all the talents."


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter.


    At the top of the list is Huang Zhong.


    In the letters written by Kuai Liang, Huang Zhong worked under the command of Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, and was not reused.


    Kuai Liang ranked Huang Zhong first, not only because of his excellent martial arts and archery, but also because of his good ability to lead troops. It''s a pity that Han Xuan and Liu Biao have the same problems. They like to use scholars as generals. Huang Zhong, who was born in Wufu, has never been able to be reused.


    In the second place is Liu ba.


    Liu Ba is a native of Lingling County, Jingzhou, and comes from an official family. Liu Yao, Liu BA''s grandfather, was once the prefect of Cangwu County in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his father, Liu Xiang, was also the prefect of Jiangxia county.


    When Liu BA was young, he was famous in Jingzhou.


    After Liu Biao came to Jingzhou, he learned that Liu BA was talented, so he expropriated Liu Ba many times and elected Liu Ba as maocai.


    Unfortunately, Liu Ba is still not an official.


    Liu Ba looks down on Liu Biao. He thinks that Liu Biao looks polite and virtuous on the surface, but in fact he is narrow-minded and can''t employ people, so he doesn''t agree with Liu Biao no matter how he recruits.


    Liu Ba is good at financial management and internal affairs. Moreover, Liu Ba is very proficient in law.


    This is an all rounder in domestic affairs.


    Although Liu BA was not good at marching and fighting, he was proficient in internal affairs, which was the talent Zhang Xiu needed.


    Now Liu Ba lives in seclusion in Xiangyang.


    Kuai Liang inquired about Liu BA''s residence and listed it for Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu could visit her.


    Behind Huang Zhong and Liu Ba, there are many talents.


    They are all scholars of Jingzhou.


    And they are all talented, but there is no such person as an official career.


    After reading it carefully, Zhang Xiu''s eyes were full of praise. Kuai Liang''s information is valuable and timely. Zhang Xiu governs Nanyang County. With the expansion of strength, talents are not enough.


    With Kuai Liang''s letter, he can recruit talents again.


    It can be said that it is timely rain.


    Zhang Xiu closed the letter and said gratefully, "Mr. Yidu, this letter from Mr. zirou, for me, can be described as sending charcoal in the snow, a long drought and a rainy day. When you get back to Kuai''s house, thank Mr. zirou for me. "


    Kuai Yue said, "my Lord, I''m wrong."


    He also knew the weight of Kuai Liang''s letters, but he and the Kuai family could not be proud. Now the Kuai family is hidden in the dark, and can only do something like this for Zhang Xiu.


    As soon as Kuai Liang''s words changed, he urgently needed to say: "if Taishou Zhang has won a great victory and wants to go north to attack Guanzhong, why did he go to Luyang county? Is this place near Yanzhou? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "the reason why we went to Luyang county first is to reconcile with Cao Cao."


    "Reconciliation?"


    Kuai Yue had a puzzled look on his face and asked: "Cao Cao takes the initiative to seek peace. What about the conditions?"After hearing that, Kuai Yue felt happy for Zhang Xiu and said with emotion, "it will be much more convenient for the governor to have the position of Zhennan general."


    "Although 3000 horses are important, it is more important to marry Cao Cao."


    "When the governor marries Huang Yueying, he has to marry Cao Cao''s daughter. That is to make friends at both ends and bet at both ends. No matter what the governor does, Liu Biao is bound to be afraid of him. "


    "After the marriage with Cao Cao, Liu Biao was more afraid of adults, but he did not dare to act rashly. Because once he acts rashly and forces adults to stand on Cao Cao''s side, Liu Biao will be even more dangerous. "


    Kuai Yue said: "this time, Zhang Taishou has gained a lot again. Congratulations, congratulations."


    Zhang Xiu smiles, also quite proud.


    This battle has indeed yielded a lot.


    As soon as the words change, Zhang Xiu urgently needs to say: "after I accept Cao Cao''s war horse, if I have enough time, I will go south first and recruit all the talents mentioned by Mr. zirou. Then, he went north to attack the central and Western Liang army. "


    Kuai Yue said, "is it time?"


    "Enough time."


    Zhang Xiu nods and answers, saying Jia Xu''s arrangement so that Kuai Yue can know.


    After hearing this, Kuai Yue agreed.


    However, he did not delay much time, and Zhang Xiu said something about Jingzhou, so he left the barracks and went south first.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier quickly entered the camp and reported: "my Lord, Cao Jun has arrived at the border. In addition, all the 3000 horses sent by Cao Cao and Cao Jie, Cao Cao''s daughter, arrived. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "go and see Cheng Yu."


    He got up, walked out of the camp and took his soldiers to the border.


    Cheng Yu has arrived, he waited for a short time, saw Zhang Xiu came, immediately rode forward, arched his hand and said: "Zhang Taishou, I haven''t seen you for a long time."


    Zhang xiudao: "hard work, Zhongde Gong."


    When Zhang Xiu spoke, his loud voice came into a carriage two Zhang behind Cheng Yu. The people in this carriage were Cao Jie and the maid beside him.


    When Cao Jie heard the sound, he thought it was good.


    It''s brilliant and full of confidence.


    It''s a nice voice.


    Cao Jie had thought about Zhang Xiu''s appearance before. When she heard the sound, she looked forward to it. She quietly lifted the door curtain of the carriage and looked forward.


    Her eyes fell on the border.


    Without any hesitation, Cao Jie saw Zhang Xiu in a white robe, a long crown on his head, a sword hanging on his waist, a dignified and dignified man.


    For no reason, her face turned red.


    A touch of light red, rising from the cheek, eyes more than a touch of joy.


    Zhang Xiu is so handsome.


    He is tall and handsome


    This is the word that Cao Jie thought of.


    The servant girl has been with Cao Jie since childhood. She is familiar with Cao Jie''s temperament. When she sees Cao Jie''s manner, she knows that there is something wrong. She also quickly lifted the curtain and looked at it quietly.


    In a flash, the servant girl opened her eyes and said excitedly, "girl, someone said that my uncle is a vulgar person. It''s not easy. It''s absolutely natural and unrestrained. It''s a perfect match for a girl. "


    When Cao Jie came back to himself, his heart kept beating at the thought of Zhang Xiu''s appearance. In particular, on her way to Nanyang County, she heard that Zhang Xiu could write poems.


    Before that, she had heard that Zhang Xiu wrote poems, which she thought was vulgar and elegant.


    After all, it''s Wufu.


    It''s strange that Wufu writes poems.


    Now, I don''t think so at all. I think Zhang Xiu is worthy of the name.


    Cao Jie and the maid hide in the carriage and appreciate Zhang Xiu''s face.


    And the most front Cheng Yu, he and Zhang Xiu talk, but feel a pressure. Because every time he talks with Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t feel the childishness of the other party. He feels that Zhang Xiu is like an old fox who has gone through many vicissitudes.


    Cheng Yu didn''t beat around the Bush, but opened his door to the mountain and said: "the imperial edict, the imperial edict, the 3000 war horses and the Lord''s daughter have arrived. You can bring Cao Chun and others. "


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "come here, bring people here."


    When the order was given, soldiers detained Cao Chun, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin. Three people''s injuries, now have recovered a lot, after all, Zhang Xiu arranged a doctor''s treatment, can''t let three people lack arms and legs.

 Chapter 198

    Xu Du, Sikong mansion.


    The backyard is a relatively remote yard with flowers and plants competing for beauty and pleasant scenery. Although the courtyard is not big, there is a small pavilion in it, and a round table made of stone is arranged under the pavilion.


    Next to the round table sat a woman of 28 years old.


    Although the woman is young, her cheeks are happy and angry, especially her Phoenix eyes, which are dark and bright, showing wisdom and intelligence. She sat reading quietly, showing a quiet and elegant temperament.


    This woman is Cao Jie, the daughter of Cao Cao. She is not Cao Cao''s eldest daughter, nor Cao Cao''s legitimate daughter. She was born in Cao Cao''s concubine''s room and has no position in the family.


    Fortunately, she was talented and loved by Cao Cao since she was a child.


    So, it has its own yard.


    Most of the time, Cao Jie stayed in the yard. In her spare time, she reads books and tidies up the flowers and plants. She has a quiet life and doesn''t feel bored.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of walking came from outside the yard.


    But Cao Jie''s servant girl came back. The servant girl''s face was flustered and anxious. She came to Cao Jie''s side, panicked and said: "girl, it''s not good."


    Cao Jie put down the books in his hand, not impatient, light way: "what''s the matter?"


    The servant girl said: "when Sikong returned to Xudu, it was said that Sikong failed to attack Zhang Xiu. Cao Chun, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin all became prisoners of Zhang Xiu. Sikong wants to make peace with Zhang Xiu and is ready to marry her. "


    Cao Jie Feng''s eyes narrowed, and immediately understood, and asked: "is it me who is the candidate for the marriage?"


    "Yes


    The servant girl nodded and answered.


    Cao Jie''s beautiful cheek, with a trace of stiffness, but in a flash, calm again, but said: "marriage, since ancient times, is the fate of parents. The father has arrangements, and the daughter has no room for comment. If you marry Zhang Xiu, marry her. "


    As the daughter of Cao Cao, Cao Jie had the consciousness of getting married.


    After all, it''s a royal family.


    It''s impossible to make your own decisions about marriage.


    The servant girl stamped her foot and said in a hurry: "Miss, the problem is not to marry Zhang Xiu. I heard that Zhang Xiu married a wife. If you marry in the past, you can only be Zhang Xiu''s concubine. You can''t be his wife. "


    Brush!


    Cao Jie''s face changed.


    She thought that she married Zhang Xiu as Zhang Xiu''s wife, but she didn''t think it was such a situation.


    You know, she is Cao Cao''s daughter.


    It''s the daughter of Sikong!


    Cao Cao''s daughter is a concubine, which surprised Cao Jie.


    Cao Jie took a deep breath. She looked sad and said, "my father has decided. What else can I say? Even if you marry a cat and a dog, you can''t help it. What information have you got from Zhang Xiu? "


    She knows her servant girl. She''s always well-informed and knows something about the outside world.


    The servant girl said: "there are not many people who know Zhang Xiu''s situation, and there are not many information that the servant girl inquires about. All I know is that Zhang Xiu was born in the Xiliang army. She has excellent martial arts. Even Dian Wei''s archery is not as good as Zhang Xiu. The rest is not very clear. "


    "Better than pawey?"


    The desolation in Cao Jie''s eyes deepened.


    She had met dianway.


    Dian Wei has been with Cao Cao''s side, inseparable. His waist was round, his arm was broad, his mouth was broad, his face was rough, and he was totally thick.


    In Cao Jie''s mind, he came up with a more powerful figure than Dian Wei, even a beard full of jaw. He was a crude northwest man.


    Think of here, Cao Jie cold can''t help shivering.


    She was helpless.


    "Alas..."


    Cao Jie sighed, with a faint sadness in his eyes.


    The maid stood aside, feeling down. When she saw Cao Jie''s look, she said helplessly, "girl, I''ll go to inquire again. What if Zhang Xiu is pretty good?"


    "No need!"


    Cao Jie shook his head.


    After all, she is a member of the royal family. A woman like her can only be used for marriage.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, another voice came from the gate of the courtyard.


    There was a little sharp voice, first came: "Oh, sister Jie is really lucky. It''s said that this piece of embroidery is also very good. It''s very powerful. "


    The voice comes first before the person arrives.


    Then came a woman with a sharp jaw, a pretty face, thin lips, and a little bit of foxy between her eyebrows and eyes.


    She''s at the front.


    This is Cao Xian, the daughter of Cao Cao. She is older than Cao Jie and has not been married yet.


    Cao Xian was followed by a 12-year-old woman who was also Cao Cao''s daughter, Cao Hua. Cao Xian and Cao Hua are a mother compatriots, quite close.


    Their relationship with Cao Jie was not very harmonious. The reason was that the previous generation began to compete for favor. Cao Jie''s mother is hostile to Cao Xian''s and Cao Hua''s mother, and the relationship between them is not good.As soon as they entered, Cao Xian put a faint smile on his face and said with false congratulations: "sister Jie, my sister is here to congratulate me. I heard that my father planned to marry Zhang Xiu and marry you to Zhang Xiu as a concubine. Oh, it''s the so-called better to be a concubine than a wife. It''s not bad that you can be Zhang Xiu''s concubine. "


    Cao Hua added: "I''ve heard that Zhang Xiu is stronger than Dian Wei and is a big man. Oh, my sister is so petite, you have to be careful. "


    Cao Hua was a young man. When he changed his voice, he had a very ugly voice.


    Both of them came to run on Cao Jie.


    The servant girl stood by and heard Cao Xian and Cao Hua''s words. Her face was very angry. She gritted her teeth and said, "hum, how is the girl? It has nothing to do with you."


    "Well, that''s right?"


    Cao Xian glared at the servant girl with fierce eyebrows and scolded: "I''m talking to sister Jie, and our sisters are chatting. If you dare to chew your tongue, I''ll tear your mouth."


    The servant girl is not afraid.


    She was about to speak, but Cao Jie stopped her.


    Cao Jie put down the book in his hand, stood up, glanced over CaO Xian and Cao Hua, a pair of Fengmu not angry from power, light said: "as sister Xian said, would rather be male concubine, not mediocre wife."


    "My father asked me to marry Zhang Xiu for my own good."


    "My father is a hero in the world and everyone respects him. Zhang Xiu can resist her father''s army with a weak force. Such a person, even if he is a military general under his father''s command, is hard to reach. "


    "It''s not bad to marry Zhang Xiu."


    "Although I am married outside, I have never heard of Zhang Xiu''s bad deeds."


    "I think he''s good, too."


    Cao Jie continued, "sister Xian and sister Hua are likely to stay in Xudu city in the future. The man you marry may be the general of your father, or his offspring. "


    "Maybe we can marry a dandy. After all, our purpose is marriage."


    "Although I married first, now it seems that I am married far away from home, what can I expect in the future? What if the Minister of the court criticizes his father and needs Zhang Xiu to help him? "


    Cao Jie said: "since my father chose Zhang Xiu, I have no regrets and no criticism."


    What she said was full of momentum.


    Even after cutting the belt, both Cao Xian and Cao Hua''s faces changed slightly. They came together to humiliate Cao Jie. However, what Cao Jie said made them nervous.


    They are all women of the Cao family and will marry in the future. Cao Cao has the final say in


    ''s marriage.


    The people they married may not be better than Cao Jie.


    Cao Jie glanced at Cao Xian and Cao Hua and continued: "if sister Xian and sister Hua come to celebrate, they don''t have to. After all, my father has just been defeated by Zhang Xiu, and I''ve heard that all the officials in the court are criticizing my father. "


    "If you have a heart, don''t make trouble for your father."


    "Just imagine, if you come to stimulate me, I can''t think of it and hang myself. When the time comes, I''m afraid my father will be angry with you when he''s not married. "


    "What''s more, when there is no suitable person to marry, we can only marry sister Xian. After all, except me, you are the most suitable daughter for my father


    There is a cold light in the eyes of Cao Jiefeng.


    "You, you..."


    When Cao Xian heard the speech, he shivered with fright.


    She was startled by Cao Jie.


    Not to mention, she was really afraid of Cao Jie''s drastic actions. She has known Cao Jie for many years, and she knows her temperament. She is a very strong woman. She is gentle on the surface, but she is soft on the outside and strong on the inside.


    If Cao Jie commits suicide, she is the only one in the family who is suitable for marriage. When the time comes, she will be sent out. Then she will regret to death.


    "Sister, let''s go!"


    Cao Xian''s charming cheek smoked, dare not provoke Cao Xian again, take Cao Hua to leave quickly.


    Cao Jie looked at the back of Cao Xian''s sister, with a touch of helplessness on her face. After she sat down, she sighed. She said it very well, but she accepted her fate.


    I hope Zhang Xiu can treat her better.

 Chapter 199

    Cheng Yu sees Cao Chun''s three people in normal health, and is also relieved. He looked at Cao Anmin carefully again. After all, Cao Anmin was the most seriously injured. He was completely relieved when he saw that Cao Anmin had no problem.


    Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Taishou is a believer. I admire him. Now that both of us are here, let''s start to carry out the agreement. How about starting with you and releasing Cao Anmin first? "


    Cheng Yu put forward the conditions.


    He was afraid of giving it to the horses and people, but in the end, Zhang Xiu repented, and he would lose a lot.


    Cheng Yu is worried, so is Zhang Xiu.


    It is impossible for him to release Cao Chun''s three at one time.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned, and immediately had a plan, saying: "since it is agreed, there is no breach of contract. Up to now, how come you''re acting like a woman. "


    "I propose a plan. You give me the imperial edict and I will release Cao Anmin."


    "Then, you send another 3000 horses, and I will release Cao Chun after receiving them. Finally, you send Miss Cao over, and I''ll release her. "


    "What do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu put forward the conditions.


    He took Yu ban as the final finale, as a card. Even if Cheng Yu half way back, or Cao Cao has any plot, Zhang Xiu has hostages in the hands, also don''t worry.


    Cheng Yu carefully deliberated on Zhang Xiu''s words, didn''t feel there was any loophole, readily said: "Zhang Taishou''s proposal, Laojiu agreed."


    With a wave of his hand, the soldier came forward with an edict.


    The soldier handed the emperor''s edict to Zhang Xiu, which means that Zhang Xiu accepted the post of Zhennan general appointed by the imperial court.


    This is one of the four Town generals.


    The generals of the four towns are divided into Zhenbei, Zhennan, Zhenxi and Zhendong. They are all powerful officials, not miscellaneous generals. Liu Bei was also appointed as the general of Yuzhou and Zhendong by Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu took a look at the imperial edict, which was sealed by the emperor.


    That''s what works.


    Zhang Xiu took away the imperial edict, looked at Cao Anmin and said with a smile, "Cao Anmin, you have to thank for meeting a good Lord. Cao Cao is a good man. He is willing to pay such a high price in exchange for you. You are also a good person. I hope you will still be the first to be captured in the next war with Cao Cao. Ben will be here. You are welcome to be a guest from time to time. "


    Cao Anmin''s mouth twitches when he hears it. He won''t be far away.


    A guest is a prisoner.


    What he wanted in his heart was to revenge and defeat Zhang Xiu. Cao Anmin took a look at Zhang Xiu, strode away, and soon came to stand behind Cheng Yu.


    Cao Jie sat in the carriage and heard what Zhang Xiu had just said. He also chuckled and thought that Zhang Xiu''s mouth was very tricky. Although she is Cao Cao''s daughter, she is going to be Zhang Xiu''s woman, which is equivalent to Zhang Jia''s person.


    If you marry a chicken, follow a dog.


    She is Zhang Xiu''s person.


    She stood in the position of Zhang Xiu.


    She finally understood Cao Ang''s evaluation. Zhang Xiu''s mouth was really sharp. What he said to Cao Anmin just now made Cao Anmin angry.


    Cao Jie didn''t speak and watched quietly.


    Cheng Yu takes a look at Cao Anmin and waves again. His soldiers drive 3000 horses forward. The hissing of Zhan Ma Xiliu, mighty and powerful, soon all entered the garrison area of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu nodded to Chen Dao.


    Chen Dao and his men came forward to check the horses. Although most of the horses were castrated, and there were almost no mares, every horse was not bad.


    Chen to check, and count the number, just came to Zhang Xiu side, toward Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Zhang Xiu reciprocates and releases Cao Chun again.


    He didn''t say anything to Cao Chun because Cao Chun was different from Cao Anmin. Cao Chun is tough, stable and not easy to deal with. Before that, after Cao Chun was captured, Zhang Xiu wanted to stimulate Cao Chun, but Cao Chun responded one by one without anger.


    "Hoo


    When Cao Chun returned to the army, Cheng Yu was relieved.


    Two people are back.


    Cheng Yu didn''t say much either. He turned and walked to the side of the carriage. He arched his hand and said, "girl, the former convenience is Nanyang County, and Zhang Xiu is on the border. You are the man of Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Cheng Yu continued: "before my lord left, he gave me two carts of dowries. There were money and precious jade articles in them. They went with the girl. When a girl comes to Nanyang County, she seldom returns to Xudu. I hope the girl can live in peace with Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Jie said, "thank you, Cheng Gong."


    "Take care, girl!"


    Cheng Yu bows and bows, his sleeves flick, and the soldiers drive to the area where Zhang Xiu is.


    Soon, the carriage stopped not far from Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu saw the carriage and went to Cao Jie''s carriage. When Zhang Xiu was the first generation, he surrendered to Cao Cao and went to court after he arrived at Xudu. He once saw Cao Jie, the queen.At that time, Cao Jie was dignified and elegant, with empress bearing.


    He has never seen Cao Jie today.


    Zhang Xiu took out the long sword at his waist, but it didn''t come out of its sheath. Holding the handle of the sword in his hand, he lifted up the curtain of the carriage with the scabbard and saw a happy and angry cheek.


    It''s Cao Jie.


    Today''s Cao Jie, with an indifferent look, looks into Zhang Xiu''s eyes with a touch of curiosity.


    She wants to know Zhang Xiu very much.


    What kind of person is this?


    Because Zhang Xiu is already his husband and the person she wants to accompany all her life.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the appearance of Cao Jie, she knew that the visitor was really Cao Jie. Although today''s Cao Jie is younger, his appearance has hardly changed. The key is that Cao Jie''s quiet temperament has not changed at all.


    Without saying much, Zhang Xiu took back the scabbard and put down the door curtain of the carriage.


    "Let go!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    With this order, Yu Jin was no longer in custody. Yu Jin takes a deep breath, then leaves quickly and comes to Cheng Yu''s side.


    Cheng Yu replaced three people and completed the task of this trip.


    He didn''t leave immediately. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, now you are also Sikong''s son-in-law. We, both sides, have turned the war into friendship, so we ask general Zhang to take care of himself. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and her face was joking. She said: "after Zhongde Gong changed the prisoner back, his tone was different. With confidence, he spoke more strongly."


    "But I''m afraid it''s not appropriate to use the word" good for yourself "in my official. In fact, it''s quite suitable for Cao Sikong. "


    "I''ve always been a man who doesn''t offend me or me."


    "If Cao Sikong thinks the strength of Nanyang County is weak and wants to attack again, then I, Zhang Xiu, should fight."


    "Welcome Cao Sikong to fight."


    Zhang Xiu said forcefully: "Mr. Zhong De went back to tell Cao Sikong that we didn''t enjoy the war very much. Next time Cao Sikong goes south, he hopes to have a good fight with him. "


    Cheng Yu''s eyes were cold, and he said, "if you are the prefect, I will tell you. Goodbye


    He said no more and turned away.


    Cao Chun, Cao Anmin, and Yu Jin all follow Cheng Yu and leave with him.


    Zhang Xiu also led the troops to retreat.


    The army returned to the barracks and stationed in the barracks.


    The news that Zhang Xiu became a Zhennan General of the imperial court soon spread in the army. The soldiers talked about it one by one, and they were even more happy and proud of Zhang Xiu.


    This is with you Rong Yan.


    Chen Dao got 3000 horses and began to select elite soldiers from the army to expand the Langya camp.


    The previous Langya camp, with only 1000 people, was weaker. Now that there are 3000 more horses in the army, the strength of his Langya battalion will be multiplied.


    Zhang Xiu in the army account, arrange people to invite Cao Jie.


    He is also curious about Cao Jie.


    This is a well bred and wise woman. He saw Cao Jie in the camp, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Miss Cao, when she married the general, did you feel aggrieved?"


    In a word, it is to ask Cao Jie what he thinks. This is also to try Cao Jie and see what kind of attitude Cao Jie has towards Zhang Xiu.


    After all, Cao Jie came from the Cao family.


    Zhang Xiu is a martial artist.


    In case, Cao Jie looks down on Zhang Xiu from the bottom of his heart. Then, Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards Cao Jie will naturally be adjusted. How Zhang Xiu treats Cao Jie depends on Cao Jie''s attitude towards Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 200

    Cao Jie smiles and says in a soft voice, "I''d rather be a hero''s concubine than a mediocre wife. It''s my blessing that I can marry my husband. I don''t feel aggrieved. "


    After listening to Cao Jie, Zhang Xiu nodded slightly.


    Cao Jie''s attitude is good.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "I am in Nanyang, although the war with Cao Gong is over for the time being. After that, there will be another battle with Cao Gong. How can you deal with yourself then? "


    Cao Jie calmly said: "before I got married, my father specially called me to the study and said that I would marry my husband. I married my husband and entered the door of Zhang Jia. I was a member of Zhang Jia. This life, this life, will never change. "


    Utterance is decisive.


    In fact, this is the characteristic of ancient women, married from the husband, married daughter is like pouring out water.


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a good cry.


    He appreciates the bearing of Cao Jie. Although Cao Jie is a woman, he is calm and gives people a feeling of not being simple.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Cao Jie, with an aggressive look in her eyes.


    Cao Jie is a little shy.


    She moved her jaw down a little, and looked unnatural on her pretty cheek. Once came to Nanyang County on the way, Cao Jie convinced himself, even if Zhang Xiu is a big man, she also recognized.


    I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would be so handsome.


    Talented!


    Have the ability!


    More powerful, still so handsome. Such a husband may not be found with a lantern.


    At this time, Cao Jie did not blame Cao Cao at all. On the contrary, he was very grateful to Cao Cao. As a woman in a prince''s family, her parents make decisions on major matters of marriage. Under such a premise, it is extremely lucky to marry a man like Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked at her for a moment, then drew back her eyes and solemnly said, "besides you, I have only one wife. That is just pregnant Huang Yueying. You, Cao Jie, are my second woman. "


    "To you, or to Yueying, I have the same attitude."


    "I''ll live up to you."


    Zhang Xiu said: "if it''s superfluous, there''s nothing to say. It''s a long life. Time will tell. "


    Cao Jie heard Zhang Xiu''s words, a heart hanging in the air, is also landing. It is impossible for a vassal like Zhang Xiu to have only one woman. Even his father, Cao Cao, had many women.


    Zhang Xiu now, but only one woman, is good.


    Cao Jie''s elder brother, Cao ang, is a little older than Zhang Xiu. He has many wives and concubines and several women. By comparison, Cao Jie is very satisfied with Zhang Xiu''s situation.


    She is quite content.


    Contented, happy!


    Cao Jie also answered: "a king is like a rock, and a concubine is like a reed. They will never bear each other."


    Zhang xiudao said: "you''re new here. You don''t know much about Nanyang and you''re not familiar with Yueying. Yueying is a very simple person. She doesn''t have any scheming and it''s not difficult to get along with her. "


    "You''re smart. You know how to get along."


    "I will go south this time, but I''m in a hurry. I can''t go south with you. I will arrange people to escort you back to Yuyang county and let Xu Shu settle you. When you get to Yuyang County, you can rest assured that you will live there. "


    Zhang Xiu said the next arrangement.


    Cao Jie''s tone was soft and he said, "I''ll listen to my husband''s arrangement." She didn''t ask Zhang Xiu what she was going to do, because it was not what she should ask.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go down!"


    "Here it is


    After a salute, Cao Jie turned and stepped down.


    But when she came out of the camp, her heart was murmuring, is it because her charm is not enough? As soon as Zhang Xiu married her, she was in a hurry to go south and didn''t intend to leave her to serve her.


    With all kinds of ideas in mind, Cao Jie returned to the camp where he lived.


    Seeing that Cao Jie came back, the servant girl looked curious and said, "girl, how does my uncle treat you?"


    "Very good."


    Cao nodded.


    When she talks with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu''s words are soft and her tone is firm. It gives people a good feeling, without any frivolity.


    Such a person, in line with Cao Jie''s mate selection criteria.


    Even beyond her standards.


    As soon as the servant girl listened to Cao Jie''s words, she knew that the result must be quite good. In her heart, she began to calculate that although Cao Jie was a concubine for the time being, her identity in the future might not be bad.


    She might have a chance, too.


    They sat together, muttering private words.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu called Pang Tong to the tent. When Jia Xu left the barracks, Pang Tong gave advice for Zhang Xiu and arranged the military affairs.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shiyuan, you arrange a carriage to send Cao Jie back to Yuyang county. Remember, you have to give the person to Xu Shu for arrangement, so that he can arrange it properly and not neglect it. "


    "Yes


    Pang Tong responded directly.


    As soon as the words changed, Pang Tong asked: "the Lord also wants to go south to Xiangyang to recruit the talents mentioned by Kuai Liang. Since my Lord wants to go south, why don''t he go with Cao Jie? "Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I have to be in a hurry to go south this time. I don''t have time to travel. Wen and this to Guanzhong, fast is January, slow is about two months. I have to take care of everything in this time. "


    Pang Tong nodded and agreed, and continued: "after seeing off Cao Jie, the LORD went south, he and Chen got together, led the army to the west of Nanyang County, and stationed at the border of Wuguan. On the one hand, it''s convenient to go northward at the border, and on the other hand, it''s convenient to get in touch with Mr. Wenhe. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    Going to Wuguan is the most suitable arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu arranged the military affairs properly and let Pang Tong carry out them. He called to Deng Zhan and took him south again. This time she went south to Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu didn''t even take the soldiers with her, so she only took Deng Zhan.


    Deng Zhan is Zhang Xiu''s bodyguard, responsible for protecting Zhang Xiu''s safety.


    Once Deng Zhan was just a Ranger. He did not follow Zhang Xiu for a long time, but witnessed Zhang Xiu defeat Cao Cao, marry Cao Jie, and become a Zhennan general appointed by the imperial court.


    Although he is only Zhang Xiu''s guard, even without official position, his heart is full of hope.


    The stronger Zhang Xiu is, the more promising his guard will be.


    They rode along without any delay. It''s spring March now, the weather is good, not hot or cold, the road is smooth, in a short time, across the whole Nanyang County, into the Xiangyang boundary.


    Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang and hid her whereabouts. No one was informed. After he and Deng Zhan entered Xiangyang City, Zhang Xiu didn''t even go to the Huang family, but went to the Kuai family.


    In Kuai''s study, he met Kuai Liang.


    Today, Kuai Liang has a natural and unrestrained life. After all, he is not involved in government affairs.


    Kuai Liang stood in front of Zhang Xiu and said, "Kuai Liang, meet the Lord!"


    The Kuai family surrendered to Zhang Xiu, and Kuai Liang called Zhang Xiu the Lord, which is what it should be.


    Zhang Xiu picked up Kuai Liang and said with a smile, "a letter from Mr. zirou is timely for me."


    Kuai Liang said, "my Lord is wrong."


    Immediately, Kuai Liang asked Zhang Xiu to take a seat. He took a seat at the bottom, and then said, "my Lord has arrived in Xiangyang quietly. Are you ready to attract Liu Ba first?"


    Now Liu Ba is in Xiangyang. Although he doesn''t live in seclusion in the city, he is in the southeast of Xiangyang City, near lumen mountain.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "Liu BA was in Xiangyang, so he was the first to recruit him. It''s just that Mr. zirou''s letter mentions all the things about Liuba, but it''s not detailed. So I came here to ask Mr. zirou for advice. "


    Zhang Xiu knows about Liu ba.


    But he didn''t know much about the specific situation of Liu ba. After all, there was no intersection between Liu Ba and Liu ba.


    Kuai Liang said with a smile: "although Liu Ba is a scholar of Confucianism, he is inclined to Legalism and is the skin and bone of Confucianism. Just like this, he despised Liu Biao''s soft means. If you want to recruit Liu Ba, you can start from this aspect. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    This is a crucial entry point.


    In troubled times, we can only use heavy allusions. Therefore, most of the time, Legalists are the main, supplemented by Confucianism. In other words, Confucianism is still the mainstream, but legalism is the bone and Confucianism is the skin, which is the trend.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said, "where''s Huang Zhong?"


    Kuai Liang said: "it will be easier to recruit Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong had a son under his knee named Huang Xu. He had been weak and sick since he was a child. He had been seeking medical advice, but he had never been cured. Zhang Zhongjing, under the Lord''s command, has a good command of medicine. With him, he may be able to cure Huang Xu''s illness. This is a great opportunity to recruit Huang Zhong. "


    "Thank you, sir.


    Zhang Xiu bows her hand to thank Kuai Liang. Thanks to Kuai Liang''s news, he won''t take a detour.

 Chapter 201

    After getting the news from Kuai Liang, Zhang Xiu quietly left Xiangyang City and went to lumen mountain. When he arrived at the foot of lumen mountain, he did not disturb anyone in lumen Academy. He climbed the mountain quietly and went straight to Pang''s house to visit Pang Degong.


    In the study, Zhang Xiu meets Pang Degong.


    Pang Shenggong said, "why did you come to fight in Xiangyang? And it came quietly. What''s the matter? "


    Zhang Xiu replied: "Kuai Liang wrote to me and specially recommended a group of talents for me to recruit. If you appear aboveboard in Xiangyang, I''m afraid it will cause Liu Biao''s fear, so he went south quietly. Pass through lumen mountain and visit the teacher on the mountain. "


    With a sigh of relief, Pang Degong said with a smile, "everything is good as a teacher. Now there are many things to do, not only the teaching in the Academy, but also some miscellaneous things on rice paper. It''s busy, but it''s full. "


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t worry, teacher. Pay attention to your health."


    Pound said: "I''m in good health as a teacher. Now the sales of Xuan paper have gone to Jiangdong, Zhongyuan and even Jizhou. Businessmen from all over the country gathered and ordered rice paper one after another. "


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised.


    The speed of sales promotion of Xuan paper is indeed very fast. In a short period of time, it has opened up the trade routes in the north.


    Zhang Xiu reminded: "Xuan paper is a cornucopia, as long as the interests converge, it may attract the covet of all parties. Teachers and father-in-law, be careful. "


    "Don''t worry about that."


    With a confident look on his face, Pang Degong stroked his beard and said, "only the most important people of Pang family and Huang family can make rice paper. Ordinary craftsmen have no access to the core secrets. "


    "Even if they know that they have made rice paper from bamboo, they can''t imitate it without formula and ideas."


    "During this period, some people really covet it."


    "It''s just, it''s all dealt with."


    "In Xiangyang, the power of Pang family and Huang family, plus the presence of Kuai family, is enough to settle everything."


    "Don''t worry!"


    There is absolute confidence in Pound''s words.


    This is the strength of the Pang family.


    Zhang Xiu also laughed. He knew the strength of Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family, and once again said, "in addition to Xuan paper, other materials can also be used for experiments, such as mulberry bark, Broussonetia papyrifera bark, etc. Although we are guarding a golden mountain, we can''t underestimate the wisdom of others, and we can''t be complacent. Only through continuous research and development can we always lead the way. "


    Pound said: "you don''t have to worry about that. Your father-in-law is interested in this and has been thinking about it all the time. He also separately allocated a lot of money to reward the craftsmen for their improvement of rice paper. "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly smiles.


    He thought too much about it. Without his participation, everything could go on smoothly.


    Zhang Xiu turned around and asked: "teacher, the sale of rice paper has made countless profits. In anyone''s eyes, this is a golden mountain. Liu Biao is a herdsman in Jingzhou. Has he ever made rice paper


    "He didn''t dare. It''s no use thinking about it."


    Pang Degong said: "Liu Biao''s foothold in Jingzhou is based on the power of Jingxiang people. Just like this, the power of Jingxiang clan is all over the country. Even if he is greedy, he can''t do it. Once he reaches the bottom line of the big family, his position will be unstable. What''s more, Liu Biao has a good reputation. He''s not sure. He won''t do it at will. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu was also relieved.


    With a wise look in his eyes, Pang Degong continued: "in fact, the business of Xuan paper is not only the Pang family, the Kuai family and the Huang family, but also the Cai family."


    Zhang Xiu was surprised and said, "when did the Cai family come in?"


    Pang Degong explained: "after the discussion between Chengyan and Laofu, in order to attract more strength, the two families each gave half of their profits to let the Cai family in. In this way, Xuan paper is jointly operated by the Cai family, Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family. "


    "Even if Liu Biao has the mind and idea of seizing, he can''t succeed."


    "Unless Liu Biao dares to be the enemy of the four families in Jingzhou."


    Pang Degong continued: "bringing in the Cai family will also help you to go south to Jingzhou in the future. With the support of the four families, Xiangyang City will not be fortified for you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "thank you, teacher!"


    He was very grateful to Lord pound.


    Although he was on the way to learn from Lord pound, he had nothing to say.


    Better than any disciple.


    With the strength of Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan, they are not afraid of the Cai family. In addition, the Kuai family can steadily suppress the Cai family and Liu Biao. The reason for bringing the Cai family in is also for him.


    Pound said: "I didn''t do anything as a teacher, just a little thing. Besides, with the energy of the Cai family, Xuan paper can be sold better. In fact, even if we split out 10% of the profits, we get much more than that. "


    After a pause, pound changed the subject and said, "just a few days ago, Kong Ming came to say goodbye to me. Now, he has left Jingzhou. "Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, surprised: "Kong Ming left? Where did he go, teacher? "


    "I don''t know!"


    Pound shook his head and said, "I asked Kong Ming where he was going. He said he wanted to go out and have a look. Now no one knows where he has gone. "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart. Her eyes narrowed and she said in a deep voice: "Kong Ming has great ambition and is ready to help the world. Now Jingzhou is almost on this side. In such an atmosphere, he stayed in Jingzhou, there is no value, it is normal to leave. Next time I see Kong Ming, I''m afraid I''ll see you on the battlefield. "


    Pound said justly: "I hope Kong Ming can find the master of Ming Dynasty. I also mentioned that I would like Kong Ming to go to Nanyang County to help you like Shi Yuan. It''s just that he didn''t answer at all. "


    "It''s normal," Zhang said


    Zhang Xiu has no hope for Zhuge Liang. Even without Huang Yueying, it will be quite difficult for him to recruit Zhuge Liang. After all, he is not from a good family.


    What''s more, there is Huang Yueying''s story. With Zhuge Liang''s arrogant temperament, it is impossible to stay under Zhang Xiu''s command, and he will certainly leave.


    Zhang Xiu said: "teacher, the war in the north is urgent. If the disciples have something important to do, they won''t stay any longer. After visiting the talents recommended by Kuai Liang, I will go north to fight. "


    Pound Fair: "you go to everything carefully, must not leak the whereabouts of information."


    "I understand!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    He came and went quickly, but on this trip to lumen mountain, he got the most important news: Zhuge Liang left Jingzhou and entered his official career ahead of time.


    In history, Zhuge Liang stayed in Xiangyang until Liu Bei entered the city. But now they are out of the mountain ahead of time. In this world of great controversy, there is one more variable.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    He has a foothold!


    He has a considerable advantage, even if the next face of the storm, he also has enough strength to resist.


    In this life, he has no fear of anyone.


    In this life, when the world.

 Chapter 202

    On the official road, Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan are not in a hurry.


    Deng Zhan, with an angry look, followed Zhang Xiu and asked, "my Lord came to the bamboo sea today, but I didn''t see Liu ba. Shall we come tomorrow morning?"


    "Come, of course."


    Zhang Xiu answered in the affirmative.


    He will not leave the bamboo sea without seeing Liu ba.


    With a look of expectation in her eyes, Zhang Xiu said, "although tomorrow, we are going to visit Liuba. However, it may not wait until tomorrow. What if I see Liu Ba today? "


    "How could it be?"


    Deng Zhan looked unbelievable.


    Zhang Xiu smile, no explanation.


    According to the news that Zhang Xiu got from Kuai Liang, many people came to visit Liu Ba, which led him to thank his guests behind closed doors. Therefore, Zhang Xiu thinks that Liu Ba is probably at home. He didn''t report his name before, so Liu Ba doesn''t know. After leaving the letter, Liu Ba knows that he is coming. If there is a certain possibility, he will arrange someone to inform Zhang Xiu to return.


    In this way, you can naturally see Liu ba.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Of course, it may not be true.


    Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan are on their way. After walking for a short time, suddenly, the sound of horse''s hooves comes from the rear.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves is rapid, and a shadow of a man is driving the horse at a gallop, like an arrow away from the string, which is fast approaching Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan.


    Zhang Xiu urged her horse to stop to make way.


    The official road in the bamboo sea can only accommodate two horses to drive in parallel. Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan go hand in hand, blocking the road.


    "Woo!"


    In the rear, when the horses ran to Zhang Xiu''s side, their front hooves were raised, and Herod''s neighing stopped beside Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Ba turned over and dismounted. His eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He arched his hand and said, "but is Zhang Taishou in front of him?"


    Zhang xiudao: "exactly, sir?"


    Liu Ba said, "I''m Liu Ba!"


    When Zhang Xiu heard Liu BA''s name, she was a little surprised, but she soon recovered. He looked at Liu Ba again. Looking carefully, Liu BA''s temperament was really outstanding.


    He turned over and dismounted, and said, "Mr. Liu Ba is very polite."


    Liu Ba said: "I''m really sorry that I didn''t go out to meet Zhang Taishou when he was studying in the backyard. Because there are too many visitors, I will ask the housekeeper to say no to anyone who comes to visit. I''ll thank the guest behind closed doors to avoid being disturbed. Please ask Mr. Zhang Haihan


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "at the beginning, I didn''t tell my identity to the housekeeper, and I didn''t prepare to pay homage. If you prepare for the post early, you won''t be able to catch up. "


    When he saw Liu Ba chasing him out, he was convinced.


    When he was at Kuai''s, Kuai Liang said it was not easy to recruit Liu ba. Now it seems that even if Zhang Xiu does not agree with her, it is not difficult to attract Liu ba.


    Liu Ba waved his hand and said, "please go back to my humble abode to have a talk."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu also waved her hand.


    Two people lead the horse, not anxious not slow to go back.


    Deng Zhan leads the horse to follow Zhang Xiu, with a strange look on his face. Just now, he didn''t believe that Liu BA would come after him, but he was confused when he saw Liu BA''s style.


    He could not understand the world of literati.


    Liu Ba didn''t go out when he went to visit, but now he chased him out in person. It''s really weird.


    Is this a scholar?


    He doesn''t understand.


    Deng Zhan was also proud.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    With a name, it is enough to make celebrities come. Think of oneself is Zhang Xiu''s guard, the face is also full of glory.


    The Party of three soon returned to their residence.


    Liu Ba went into the yard and said, "housekeeper, bring me my good tea and make it."


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper had to order him to prepare immediately.


    In the hall.


    Zhang Xiu and Liu Ba sit opposite each other, while Deng Zhan is waiting outside the room.


    Soon, the housekeeper brought tea.


    Liu Ba took a sip of the tea and said, "let''s have a try. This is spring tea picked. It tastes very unique."


    Zhang Xiu also took a sip.


    After a cup of tea, the mouth contains a touch of freshness, leaving a lingering fragrance, especially comfortable.


    "Good tea, good tea!"


    Zhang Xiu praised that he had drunk good tea in later generations. But for the first time in my life, I drank such fresh and freshly picked tea.


    Liu Ba smiles and is quite proud.


    This is his original way of drinking tea.


    As soon as Liu BA''s words changed, he said, "I carefully thought over the words left by Zhang Taishou and found that there was a mystery in them. Not only is the content good, the words on the paper can be on the left and right, which is unique. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "such a word, I call it couplet."


    Liu Ba said: "what is couplet?"Zhang Xiu didn''t hide herself, and immediately said some rules of couplets. Originally, the rules of couplets were not complicated. After Zhang Xiu said it simply, Liu Ba understood it and said with admiration, "I didn''t expect that there were so many mysteries in just 20 words."


    As soon as the words changed, Liu Ba said, "as far as I know, when Zhang Taishou just defeated Cao Cao, he had a lot of things in his hands. How did he get to Xiangyang and the bamboo sea quietly?"


    After Cao Cao was defeated, he asked me for peace. Cao Cao returned to Xudu and appointed me general of Zhennan. Next, I''m going to go north to Guanzhong to fight against the army in Xiliang and end the chaos in Guanzhong. "


    "However, there is a shortage of talent."


    "I heard that Mr. Liu Ba has great talent, so I came to Zhuhai specially. I hope Mr. Liu Ba can help me when he becomes an official."


    Zhang Xiu put forward her intention.


    He also points out his current status. Although Zhang Xiu only has Nanyang County, she is no less powerful than Liu Biao in the military officer position, and also serves as Zhennan general.


    Liu BA was a little surprised.


    In less than a year, Zhang Xiu occupied Nanyang County, defeated Cao Cao and was appointed Zhennan general by the imperial court.


    Liu Ba thought about turning around and asked, "Cao Cao is defeated. He is defeated at the expense of his troops. It is reasonable to say that Zhang Taishou should be extremely resentful. Why did Cao Cao play the role of emperor and appoint Zhang Taizhou as the general of Zhennan? "


    The news is that Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao,


    but the detailed situation of the war has not come out, and few people know that Zhang Xiu has captured Cao Chun and others.


    Zhang Xiu also did not hide, immediately said the things about Yu Jin, Cao Chun and Cao Anmin, and said: "Cao Cao can only pay a big price in order to redeem Cao Chun and other three people. It was only one of the conditions for the imperial court to appoint me as general of Zhennan. In addition, Cao Cao gave me 3000 war horses and married his daughter to me. "


    "Hiss!"


    When Liu Ba heard the speech, he also took a cool breath.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu made such a big profit.


    Liu Ba paid attention to Zhang Xiu originally, and learned that Zhang Xiu had won the battle with Cao Cao, so he also appreciated Zhang Xiu incomparably. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, he stood up, folded his hands, and said, "Liu Ba, I''d like to meet you!"


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words in a row and looked happy on her face.


    Now under Zhang Xiu''s command, Jia Xu and Pang Tong are good at scheming. Although Xu Shu is in the rear, he is good at scheming. Although Xu Shu manages government affairs, he can still do it. After all, this is not what Xu Shu is good at.


    Liu Ba is good at government affairs.


    With Liu BA''s loyalty, Zhang Xiu''s talent structure will be more reasonable.


    He got up and went to Liu ba. He held up Liu BA''s arm in both hands and praised him: "I''m like a fish in water. With the help of my husband, I''m free from worries. "


    Liu Ba praised: "the Lord is wrong."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I am short of a master, sir, to work for me. How about taking the post of master?"


    Liu Ba said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    As soon as the words changed, Liu Ba said, "my Lord has been fighting in the north. How do you know your humble position? Moreover, the Lord quietly went to Xiangyang and went to the bamboo sea. Who recommended him? "


    "Kuai Liang!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    When Liu Ba heard Kuai Liang''s name, his pupils shrank and he thought of many possibilities. In the end, he sifted out all kinds of possibilities and formed his own inference. Shocked, he said: "Kuai Liang is no longer an official, but the Kuai family works for Liu Biao. Kuai Liang recommends me to you. Is it... "


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "although Kuai family works for Liu Biao, in fact, they have been on my side for a long time. The Xuan paper you use has the participation of Kuai family. Besides, Kuai Qi of the Kuai family has always been under my command. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Liu Ba is convinced at the moment.


    He never thought that the Kuai family of Jingzhou were all on Zhang Xiu''s side.


    The positions of the Pang and Huang families are well known. After all, Huang Chengyan is Zhang Xiu''s father-in-law, and Huang Chengyan has only Huang Yueying as a daughter, who must support Zhang Xiu unconditionally.


    Pang Degong is Zhang Xiu''s teacher. He personally presides over Zhang Xiu''s marriage, which is also a good judgment.


    No one knows about the Kuai family.


    Liu Ba is happy at the moment. It''s his blessing to follow such a person. The stronger Zhang Xiu''s strength is, the more promising he will be if he follows Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao said: "what is wise but not wise? The reason why we can come to this step is that the officers and men use their lives. It''s all the people who work together that make everything what it is today. "


    Liu Ba said: "my Lord is modest."

 Chapter 203

    Liu Ba really admired Zhang Xiu. His previous impression of Zhang Xiu was that he was able to be civil and military. He was a master of Ming Dynasty. He could stand in troubled times and have considerable strength.


    Zhang Xiu and a brief conversation, a glimpse of the leopard, know the strength of Zhang Xiu, far more than the surface so simple.


    Its strength is already strong.


    In Liu BA''s opinion, Zhang Xiu has the support of three families. Even if we want to attack Jingzhou now, it is not difficult. After all, with the support of the Kuai, Pang and Huang families, it''s easy to win Xiangyang in Jingzhou.


    Liu Ba changed his mind and said, "my Lord is in urgent need of talents. I know someone."


    Zhang xiudao: "who?"


    Liu Ba replied, "Li Yan, Nanyang County."


    Zhang Xiu''s mind moves. He knows Li Yan. In history, Li Yan was Liu Bei''s minister of supporting the orphans. Although Li Yan was finally won by Zhuge Liang, his ability could not be denied.


    Li Yan is also very talented.


    Zhang Xiu came interested and asked, "where is Li Yan''s talent?"


    Liu Ba replied, "it''s in Xiangyang, but Li Yan lives in Xiangyang. In a word, when Li Yan came to live in Xiangyang City, he had something to do with his Lord. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Liu Ba explained: "at the beginning of the year, Li Yan was an official of Nanyang County. Because Liu Biao gave all the counties of Nanyang County South of Xinye to the Lord, he withdrew the relevant officials. "


    "These people have come to live in Xiangyang City, waiting for Liu Biao''s resettlement."


    "But Li Yan, with a simple temperament, is not good at drilling and has no way, so he has been waiting for Liu Biao to settle down. Waiting, waiting, being forgotten, up to now, there is no arrangement. "


    "I guess Liu Biao forgot everything."


    Liu Ba said: "Li Yannian is nearly 30 years old. He works in counties all the year round and is very good at internal affairs. If the Lord can recruit Li Yan, he will be much easier in government affairs. If the Lord wants to recruit Li Yan, he can lead the way. The relationship between humble position and Li Yan is pretty good. "


    "The more the capable, the better."


    Zhang Xiu knows that Li Yan is talented.


    He also likes such people to be recruited.


    Liu Ba bowed slightly and took the initiative to say, "then, it''s the humble position that leads the way. The whereabouts of the Lord could not be revealed, so he rode into the city in a carriage with his humble position, and would not be found. A humble carriage can always get in and out of the gate at will. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    Liu Ba is an acute person. When he decides something, he doesn''t delay any more. He and Zhang Xiu go out of the yard. As soon as they got to the gate of the courtyard, suddenly there was a knock on the door outside.


    "Bang! Bang


    The door of the courtyard was constantly shaken by the impact.


    "Liu Ba, come out for me. Today, I won''t kill you."


    A loud voice came from the door.


    Liu BA''s face changed slightly when he heard the sound. When he looked at Zhang Xiu, he felt helpless and said, "Lord, the man who came here is a squire near the bamboo sea. His name is Zuo pan. He has some savage strength."


    "He repeatedly wanted me to go to his house and teach his son."


    "But I didn''t mean to teach my son, so I declined him."


    "Now, he''s here again."


    Liu Ba is also helpless, said: "just yesterday, just rejected him. Now, it''s coming again. I can''t help it. "


    Zhang xiudao: "this pour interesting, you don''t want to accept people, left pan want overlord hard bow?"


    "That''s what he is," said Liu ba


    "Boom!"


    There was a loud noise and the door was knocked open. A big man, with five boys, came in with a swagger.


    He is a strong man, and he stands out as Zuo pan.


    He is in his early 30s, seven feet and six inches tall, with rough cheeks and fierce eyes, showing a domineering and powerful temperament. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Zhang Xiu and Liu ba.


    Zuo pan raised his head and gritted his teeth: "Liu Ba, Lao Tzu''s son is gifted and intelligent. Do you teach knowledge or not?"


    "No teaching!"


    Liu Ba refused directly.


    His face is cold Su, point to the gate, sink a voice way: "left pan, my this courtyard''s gate, you bump to break."


    "I''ll pay for it!"


    Zuo pan answered without hesitation.


    He has money and doesn''t care about a wooden door, which is not even a drop in the bucket for him. If you take Liuba back, you will make more money.


    With a smile on his face, Liu Ba said, "Zuo pan, your son is stubborn. I can''t teach him knowledge. What''s more, I''m going on a long journey. I can''t stay in the bamboo sea. "


    "Fart!"


    Zuo pan raised his head and gritted his teeth: "my son is always knowledgeable and reasonable. How can he be stubborn. You, Liu Ba, obviously look down on my son. "


    For Zuo pan, his son is the most intelligent, sensible and obedient child in the world.Liu Ba said: "Zuo pan, if you make trouble again, don''t blame me for being rude."


    "Just you, why not?"


    Zuo pan clenched his teeth and sneered: "Liu Ba, I give you face because you are learned. Do you really think Liu Ba is an official family? Your grandfather died, and your father died. Now the Liu family is broken down. Lao Tzu let you have something to do, that is to look up to you. You, don''t be shameless. "


    Zuo Pan''s hegemony is obvious.


    He thinks it''s Liu BA''s good fortune to give him something to do.


    Liu Ba face more angry, angry way: "hum, want me to teach your son, impossible."


    Zuo Pan said, "don''t blame me for being impolite."


    "Oh, do you want to do it?"


    But Zhang Xiu couldn''t see it any more. He stepped out and said in a deep voice, "your name is Zuo pan?"


    "Yes


    Zuo pan answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and she scolded: "you like to eat excrement. Do others want to be the same as you? If you think it''s good, why should you ask others to do the same. You are a parent and think your son is good. That''s your business. But it''s your fault to force others. Get out now, or you''ll be responsible for the consequences! "


    "Boy, you want to die!"


    Left pan is biting a tooth, way: "kid, newspaper up a name."


    Zhang Xiu said: "nobody is just a friend of Liu ba."


    Zuo Pan''s eyes sparkled with anger, and ordered: "go ahead, take that boy for me first. He likes to eat excrement. Today, I will let him taste it. "


    His five little fellows came forward immediately.


    In the moment when Xiao Si rushed out, Deng Zhan moved.


    The sword in Deng Zhan''s hand didn''t come out of the scabbard. He held the handle of the sword and used the scabbard. All he heard was a series of bangs. All the little guys around Zuo pan fell to the ground with a scream, and their faces were full of pain.


    Everyone, down to the ground.


    One by one, they were wailing in pain. When they looked at Deng Zhan, they looked frightened. They followed Zuo pan and were used to bullying. No one dared to be arrogant in front of them.


    Now, it hit the iron plate.


    Left pan eyes a Li, roar a way: "kid, take life to come!"


    Seeing Zuo Pan''s massive body rushing out, he swung his huge fist and hit Deng Zhan fiercely. Facing Zuo Pan''s attack, Deng Zhan held the sword in his left hand, cut the horse''s step with both legs, and made a fist with his right hand.


    "Bang!"


    The two fists collided.


    In a flash, Deng Zhan took a step back to stabilize himself. However, Zuo pan snorted. He couldn''t help shaking his palm. With an expression of pain on his face, he stepped back four steps in succession to stabilize his figure.


    There was a look of horror on his face.


    You can''t win!


    Liu Ba is surrounded by experts.


    Zuo pan is not a man who tries to be brave to the end. As soon as he sees something wrong, he immediately says, "withdraw!"


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "Deng Zhan, take the left pan."


    "Here it is


    Deng zhandeling, a lunge forward, an instant to the left pan behind.

 Chapter 204

    After leaving lumen mountain, Zhang Xiu takes Deng Zhan to Liu BA''s residence.


    According to the information about Liuba provided by Kuai Liangda, the place where Liuba lives is called Zhuhai. A very common name is Zhuhai because there are all kinds of bamboos in this bamboo forest.


    In summer, the bamboo sea is extremely cool and will not be attacked by the summer heat. It is a holy land for summer resort.


    Near the bamboo sea, there are many people.


    Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan enter the bamboo sea and ask along the way. They gradually approach Liu BA''s residence.


    Along the way, Zhang Xiu also inquired about the people around Liu ba. Most of the people, when they heard Liu BA''s name, looked nervous and awed.


    But from the beginning to the end, no one said Liu BA was bad. Among the people, Liu Ba is also enthusiastic and always teaches the children of the people nearby. He is a good person.


    But Liu BA''s temperament is relatively rigid, which leads to people''s awe of Liu ba.


    After about half an hour, Zhang Xiu came to the depth of the bamboo sea.


    This place is backed by mountains and water.


    A wide and elegant courtyard is located at the foot of the mountain. Behind it are dense and green bamboo forests and woods. In front of the yard, there is a flowing stream with gurgling water.


    In the stream, across a tube car, just listen to the sound of the wheel ring, tube car rotation water, a happy scene.


    Zhang Xiu got off the horse early and led the horse forward.


    Deng Zhan took two steps behind Zhang Xiu and said as he walked along: "as the Lord, who do you want to recruit? A letter is enough. Why do you have to go in person? We didn''t give advance notice. In case Liuba isn''t here, it''s a vain trip. "


    Zhang Xiu glared at Deng Zhan.


    In a flash, Deng Zhan did not speak.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "you don''t speak, no one when you are dumb."


    "Here it is


    Deng Zhan smiles and stops talking.


    After a while, they came to the gate of the courtyard, and Deng Zhan came forward and knocked on the door.


    "Who is it?"


    Not long ago, the voice of old people came out.


    The door creaked open. An old man in his early fifties, wearing a black robe, with a faint smile on his face, looked at Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan and asked, "who are you looking for?"


    The old man is Liu BA''s housekeeper and an old man of the Liu family. He served Liu BA''s grandfather and father and now takes care of Liu ba.


    Deng Zhan took the initiative to ask: "dare to ask my father-in-law, is Mr. Liu BA at home?"


    "No!"


    Answered the housekeeper, shaking his head.


    When Zhang Xiu hears the speech, she immediately frowns, which really makes Deng Zhan''s crow mouth right. Liu Ba is not at home. Zhang Xiu eyes light rotation, thought of a possibility in the heart.


    Maybe Liuba is at home.


    However, Liu Ba refused to accept foreign guests, so the unified reply was not available.


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart that Deng Zhan said the wrong thing as soon as she opened her mouth. When Deng Zhan comes to Liu BA''s door, he shouldn''t ask if Liu Ba is in. Instead, he should directly say that Zhang Xiu has come to visit Liu Ba and ask the housekeeper to inform him.


    That''s the right call.


    Only Deng Zhan''s carelessness caused the situation to freeze.


    When the housekeeper says that Liu Ba is not here, even if Zhang Xiu is named again, it is impossible for the old man to eat his words and say that Liu Ba is here. This is tantamount to beating his face.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t criticize Deng Zhan. He will leave only when he meets Liu ba. If you don''t see Liu Ba, it''s too bad to leave so disheartened.


    Zhang Xiu took the initiative to say, "father-in-law, where has Mr. Liu Ba gone?"


    The housekeeper shook his head and replied, "the whereabouts of the young master is not something that I can know. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said again, "when will you be back?"


    The housekeeper added: "I have said just now that I don''t know the whereabouts of the young master. When you go out, I don''t know where you are. So I don''t know when you will come back. "


    The housekeeper''s answer is not leaking.


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t find the slightest flaw and couldn''t start.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s initiative to visit him is impossible. Looking at Liu BA''s house, Zhang Xiu suddenly had a plan in mind and said, "Lao Zhang, please lend me a pen and paper. I''ll leave a letter. Please give it to Mr. Liu ba


    "Good!"


    The housekeeper answered and turned to walk into the room.


    He went through the hall of the yard and straight into the backyard. In the corner of the yard, under the pavilion, a handsome, sharp eyed middle-aged man in his early thirties was sitting upright, reading a book.


    This man is Liu ba.


    He is indeed at home.


    Liu Ba lives in the bamboo sea. Although the place is remote, people often visit him. Liu BA was fed up with the endless stream of visitors. Except for his own good friends, there were no visitors, so the housekeeper refused all the visitors, saying that he was not at home.


    The housekeeper said, "young master, someone is visiting again."


    Liu Ba did not lift his head and said, "who?"The housekeeper was stunned, shook his head and said, "I didn''t ask. He didn''t say anything when he visited. The other party came to visit and only asked if you were in, so the old slave replied that he was not at home. He asked for a pen and paper, for a book


    "Just give it to him!"


    Liu BA was still reading a book and said with his head down.


    There were too many people coming, he couldn''t cope with it at all, and he didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu''s visit. After all, he didn''t know Zhang Xiu was visiting.


    The housekeeper took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and quickly went to the gate of the yard. After Zhang Xiu took it, he put pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the stone table in the yard and took out rice paper to lay it flat.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to make a long speech.


    For people like Liu Ba, it is better to have a short sentence than a long and wordy speech.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Besides letters, the most important thing is his reputation. Zhang Xiu looked at the rice paper lying on the stone table. When she just picked up the pen, she thought about it and cut it out quickly.


    Zhang Xiu was cut according to the size of couplet paper of later generations.


    After the cutting, Zhang Xiu said, "I admire Mr. Liu BA''s talent and learning. It''s a pity that I didn''t see him today. Mr. Zhang Xiu admired him for his talent and ambition. Zhang Xiu presents his ugliness and gives Mr. Zhang a pair of words. "


    The housekeeper stood aside, silent. Liu and his housekeeper are not responsible for the rest of his life.


    Zhang Xiu dipped her pen in ink and began to write.


    When Deng Zhan saw the words written down, he began to read them.


    "The sound of the wind, the sound of the rain, the sound of reading, the sound of hearing!"


    "Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, care about everything!"


    After Zhang Xiu finished writing, he dried the ink and handed the two pieces to the old man. He solemnly said, "I feel a little bit about this trip to the bamboo sea. Please give the letter to Mr. Liu ba. It''s said that Zhang Xiu has visited."


    The housekeeper said quietly, "when the young master comes back, I will give it to you as it is."


    He still didn''t disclose the news that Liu BA was at home.


    Zhang Xiu said no more and left. If Liu Ba is at home and learns that Zhang Xiu is coming to visit him and sees this word again, maybe next time Zhang Xiu comes to visit, he won''t hide again.


    This is the intention of Zhang Xiu.


    Make an impression first.


    After Zhang Xiu left, the housekeeper took the words written down by Zhang Xiu and went straight back to the courtyard. He came to Liu Ba, put the couplet on the table, and solemnly said: "young master, this is left by Zhang Xiu. The person who came to visit just now claimed to be Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    Liu Ba raised her eyebrows and looked surprised.


    Although Liu Ba lived in seclusion in the bamboo sea, he was not deaf to the outside world, but also concerned about the outside world.


    Liu Ba is quite interested in Zhang Xiu.


    A martial arts man from Xiliang is very powerful. He can write poems in seven steps and kill people in ten steps. In particular, Zhang Xiu not only established herself in Nanyang County, but also defeated Cao Cao''s army.


    This is extremely powerful.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu got the help of Pang family and Huang family. It''s not easy to do this.


    Liu Ba appreciates Zhang Xiu.


    He put down the book, picked up a pair of couplets sent by the housekeeper and saw the word left by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s handwriting is not bad.


    In particular, when Liu Ba saw the contents on the paper, his eyes were shining, as if he had seen the peerless treasure. Even the light in his eyes was more excited than seeing the naked woman.


    Housekeeper way: "childe, this word is Zhang Xiu to send you."


    "The sound of wind and rain, the sound of reading, the sound of hearing; family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, care about everything!"


    "Well written, well written!"


    "It''s catchy to read, not to mention charming. This kind of symmetrical discourse is really unique. "


    "Good words, good content, good!"


    Liu BA''s mouth was full of praise and his face was full of joy.


    Housekeeper way: "but Zhang Xiu left."


    Liu BA''s eyes were full of joy, and he continued: "what are you afraid of when you leave? To lead my horse, I''ll go after Zhang Xiu. If such a person leaves, I will regret my whole life. "


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper went to prepare immediately.


    Liu Ba continued to look at the words left by Zhang Xiu and read them carefully. His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was drunk.


    Wine can intoxicate, so can words.

 Chapter 205

    Among the Rangers in Xiangyang, Deng Zhan is very good at martial arts. In particular, Deng Zhan''s swordsmanship is even more powerful. Although Deng zhanjian didn''t come out of the scabbard, the scabbard infused strength, which was extraordinary.


    The scabbard goes forward and stabs hard.


    "Bang!"


    A dull noise came out.


    Left Pan''s rib under the sword, peiran powerful impact, immediately hurt to death. Zuo pan even felt that half of his body was numb, and his whole body fell back on the ground.


    The rest of the boys were all flustered when they saw that Zuo pan was taken down.


    One by one, panic.


    Zhang Xiu stepped out and came to zuopan. She looked down at zuopan with sharp eyes and said coldly, "don''t you want to eat excrement? Today, I''ll help you. "


    "No, no!"


    Zuo pan shook his head loudly, and a look of panic appeared on his face.


    He doesn''t want to eat shit.


    Zuo pan clenched his teeth and said directly, "it''s not me. I don''t want to force Liu ba. I''m instructed."


    Zhang Xiu stopped immediately.


    As soon as he heard Zuo Pan''s words, he knew that things had become complicated.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Ba and asked, "Sir, have you offended anyone?"


    "No!"


    Liu Ba shook his head and his face was full of doubts. He lives in the bamboo sea, no one to provoke, how can offend people?


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes returned to Zuo pan and said in a deep voice, "who will deal with Liu Ba?"


    Zuo Pan said, "it''s from Jiangdong."


    "Jiangdong?"


    Zhang Xiu in the eyes of a glimmer of surprise, did not want to come to solicit Liu Ba, and involves Jiangdong.


    When Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang to marry Huang Yueying, Zhou Zhong and Ling you from Jiangdong planned to kill Zhang Xiu. Now, I meet people from Jiangdong in the bamboo sea.


    Although sun CE was far away in Wu County, he paid close attention to Jingzhou. No matter inside or outside Xiangyang City, there are sun CE''s people in action.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she asked, "who is the one who instructs you?"


    Zuo pan shook his head and said, "I don''t know. The other party didn''t say anything at all. He just asked me to take Liu ba. They said, let me find a name to cheat Liu Ba to the government, and give me 100 gold as a reward. Therefore, I asked Liu Ba to teach my son''s studies, intending to let Liu Ba go to my house. Liu Ba is not willing to do anything. I''m going to take people captive. "


    Liu BA''s eyes narrowed and said, "Lord, people from Jiangdong came to visit me before, hoping that I would go to Jiangdong and work for sun CE. I just didn''t expect that Jiangdong would take such extreme measures. "


    Zhang Xiu asked: "who?"


    Liu jiangce is under his command. Ling Cao visited Jiangdong three times, and he had to persuade me to go to Jiangdong. The first time and the second time, I met him, but I refused. Ling Cao came for the third time, but I refused to see him. It is estimated that Ling Cao will take such extreme measures only when he is not angry and angry. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zuo pan and asked, "how many people live in your family?"


    Zuo Pan said, "there are six."


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "it''s not polite to come but not to go. It''s also related to people in Jiangdong. This time, we have to teach each other a lesson. Last time, sun CE arranged for me to be assassinated. This time I met him again. How can I not teach him a lesson? "


    Zhang Xiu has no good impression on Jiangdong.


    He has always been a hater.


    It is Zhang Xiu''s temperament to have gratitude and revenge.


    Liu Ba asked, "what is the Lord going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were full of brilliant light. She looked at Zuo pan and said coldly, "Zuo pan, Liu Jingzhou and Jiangdong are enemies of the world. As soon as the news reaches Liu Jingzhou, you will die. "


    Brush!


    Zuo Pan''s face changed greatly.


    Before that, he didn''t think so much.


    After all, there is a hundred gold.


    As long as Liu Ba is cheated into his house, he will get 100 gold, which is nothing. But now, all of a sudden, there is no one hundred gold. Even because the people who take in Jiangdong have to suffer misfortunes, he is scared to death.


    "Plop!"


    Zuo pan got up from the ground and said: "childe, I''m wrong. I know I''m wrong. Please forgive me."


    He was terrified.


    He is greedy for money, but more afraid of death.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you realize the mistake, as long as you are willing to cooperate, not only will not die, I also give you a wealth."


    Zuo Pan said, "What wealth?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "you lead the way, my people will kill Jiangdong people. Then, you take their heads and go to the prefecture to get a reward. "


    "You just need to say that someone from Jiangdong sneaked into Jingzhou, intending to let you work for Jiangdong. However, if you design to kill people in Jiangdong, you will be rewarded. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "even, you may get an official title and become an official in Jingzhou.""Yes, yes, I will."


    Left pan in front of a bright, don''t want to, directly agreed to come down.


    He dreams of becoming an official. If he has the chance to become an official, he will never let it go. In particular, after listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, he felt that this truth was feasible.


    He won''t miss the chance to pick it up in vain.


    Zhang Xiu said, "have you considered it clearly? If it''s this plan, I can''t give it to you. Otherwise, if you give me up, there will be mistakes in the plan, and you will even be found out that the people you harbored in Jiangdong will be executed. "


    Left pan way: "adult rest assured, villain certainly won''t divulge information."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu just nodded.


    He is so, is to block the mouth of zuopan, let zuopan not give him. Because Zhang Xiu was hiding her whereabouts and going south, she could not reveal her identity.


    Liu Ba saw Zuo Pan''s manner in his eyes, but he shook his head.


    Zuo pan is a man who wants to gain.


    In fact, if Zuo pan takes Ling Cao''s head and others to the prefecture to receive the prize, he will get benefits, but he will also become a living target. Once the news is sent back to Jiangdong, sun CE will surely send someone to retaliate.


    But Zuo pan didn''t care.


    He doesn''t care about it at all, he just wants to get the benefits.


    Liu Ba is not willing to remind such people.


    Zhang Xiu said, "lead the way!"


    "Yes


    Left pan quickly stood up, a wave, the side of the small Si immediately follow. A group of people, go out quickly. As he walked, Zuo Pan said, "what''s your name, young master? It seems that you are not from Jingzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu eyes a vertical, light way: "shouldn''t ask don''t ask, some things, know more, easy to bad things.". There may be life in danger


    Brush!


    Zuo Pan''s face changed greatly.


    He heard the intention of killing from Zhang Xiu''s words. Full of awe for Zhang Xiu, he said: "don''t ask, don''t ask."


    He doesn''t want to die yet.


    From Liuba''s house to zuopan''s residence, it''s only three miles away. After a short time, the group came to zuopan''s house. Zuo pan was a squire near the bamboo sea. He had a lot of money. But only with this, the family has no inside information, just some money.


    Bow your back and bring people in.


    Party, back to the yard.


    Time is not long, a party came to the backyard, a yard outside. Zuo pan looked flattering and said, "young master, people from Jiangdong are in this yard. I''ll wait outside. Go in. "


    "Together!"


    Zhang Xiu can''t refuse to say.


    Left Pan Shan a smile, way: "I don''t know what martial arts, don''t go in."


    Zuo pan knew Ling Cao''s martial arts.


    Zuo pan is greedy. After Ling Cao arrives, he says that as long as he brings back Liu Ba, he will give him a reward of 100 gold. At that time, Zuo pan was greedy for profits, intending to control ling Cao and snatch Ling Cao''s money.


    It''s a pity that Ling Cao is strong in martial arts. Left pan in front of Ling Cao, even ten moves have not passed, directly defeated.


    Ling Cao wanted to use Zuo pan, so he didn''t kill anyone.


    Otherwise, Zuo pan would have died.


    Just knowing Ling Cao''s martial arts, Zuo pan didn''t dare to go in. But after Zhang Xiu''s order, Zuo Pan''s heart, even if he was afraid, could only follow him, because the people in front of him were also extremely fierce.


    Left pan face with an uneasy look, with a small step, into the yard.


    "My Lord, I''ve brought Liuba."


    Left pan with people into the yard, a loud cry.


    As his voice fell, the door creaked open in the yard. A middle-aged man with normal figure, long arms, thin cheeks, sunken eyes and sharp eyes came out.


    This person is Ling Cao.


    Ling Cao was accompanied by five guards, all of whom followed him to Jingzhou.


    This time to Jingzhou operation, Ling Cao is for Liu ba. Although sun CE was born in Jiangdong, he has been paying close attention to the situation of Jingzhou and is very familiar with it.


    Knowing that Liu BA was a talented person, sun CE sent Ling Cao to Jingzhou to recruit Liu ba for him. What do you know? Ling Cao paid three visits, but they were all shut up.


    Ling Cao, angry, decided to take Liu Ba back to Jiangdong.

 Chapter 206

    Zhang Xiu''s words are ironic and just as they are provocative. The calmer you are on the battlefield, the better you can seize the opportunity. Once you lose your sense, you will be like a mad cow. It is impossible to seize the opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu is to stimulate Ling Cao.


    Let Ling Cao out of control.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s martial arts is strong and can maintain the stability of lingcao, he will not relax at all.


    The lion and the rabbit still need to go all out.


    He will not underestimate Ling Cao just because he is stronger.


    Zhang Xiu saw Ling Cao''s anger and continued: "speaking up, sun CE is really stupid. He has no brain. Earlier in the year, Sun Jian was killed by Huang Zu''s people in Jingzhou. "


    "Last time, sun CE sent Ling you and Zhou Zhong to die, but none of them stayed."


    "This time, sun CE sent you to die. Knowing that this piece of land in Jingzhou was antagonistic to the sun family, sun CE, however, knowingly committed the crime and sent people to die again and again. "


    Zhang xiutut said: "it''s a pity!"


    "You''re the one who''s going to die. Zhang Xiu, the dog thief, take your life!"


    Ling Cao was completely angry.


    His eyes were red with blood in them. His nostrils became bigger and he was puffing. If in the bullring, Ling Cao is the infuriated bullfight, and Zhang Xiu is the one who controls the bullfight.


    Two people''s realm, high and low, make a judgment.


    "Kill


    Ling Cao came out with an epee.


    His sword is a specially made sword with great strength. A sword chop, epee with the sound of breaking the air, harsh voice out, in a moment, the edge of the sword to Zhang Xiu''s body.


    Zhang Xiu holds up her sword. Longquan sword has a sharp edge and a very tough body. It is made of refined steel.


    One impact, sparks.


    Zhang Xiu holds the sword in both hands. The blade moves back and rushes straight forward.


    The Longquan sword was then dragged out.


    Its speed, fast lightning.


    Zhang Xiu has no lack of speed, strength and flaws.


    Ling Cao''s pupils shrank and quickly retreated. Zhang Xiu''s moves are extremely vicious. Taking advantage of his opportunity to cut off, she quickly shortens the distance and cuts the sword horizontally.


    In this way, the distance between Zhang Xiu and Ling Cao is very close, which makes him unavoidable. Even if Ling Cao retreated quickly, he was a step slower.


    "Yes


    The blade of the sword passed by, and Ling Cao''s clothes were cut, and a bloodstain suddenly appeared.


    Fortunately, Ling Cao stepped back in time, and the blade was only half an inch into the flesh. Even so, Ling Cao''s skin was split, and the red blood flowed out and dyed his clothes red.


    Hiss!


    Severe pain, from lingcao chest.


    He took a cold breath, but he gritted his teeth and held back the pain of his body. Ling Cao turns his eyes and looks at Zhang Xiu, who is not far away from him, with a strong sense of killing in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu held the sword and continued: "look, you and Ling you are not much different. They are all pitifully weak. If your strength is not good, you should hide in a dark place and do a good job. Don''t come out aboveboard. Otherwise, it''s death. "


    "Zhang Xiu, I''ll kill you."


    Ling Cao was irritated to anger.


    He is not a man of evil. He wants to kill Zhang Xiu for revenge.


    Ling Cao ignores the injury in front of him. Regardless of the situation in trouble, he drags his Epee with both hands and rushes to Zhang Xiu again. When he got close to Zhang Xiu, he had a meal at his feet and swung up the heavy sword, and then cut it down obliquely.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose.


    Is it hard?


    He''s not afraid of it.


    Zhang Xiu holds the Longquan sword in both hands. Her strength is strong. She wrists her waist to exert her strength. Her whole body is infused with Longquan sword. Just listen to Zhang Xiu a big drink, sharp and unparalleled Longquan sword, directly cut in the past.


    Two sword shadows, across the air.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of impact is crisp but harsh.


    At the moment of the impact, there was a click. Ling Cao''s epee was cut off by Longquan sword one foot away from the tip of the sword. Ling Cao''s sword fell to nothing, but Zhang Xiu''s sword went on.


    "Yes


    The sharp Longquan sword fell from Ling Cao''s left shoulder. The edge of the sword was one inch into the meat, and it was like peeling down the bone, leaving a foot long wound on Ling Cao''s body.


    "Poof!"


    Blood gushed like a spring.


    Flesh and blood.


    Lingcao''s face was full of pain. At this moment, he also lost his fighting power. Under the severe pain, he could not maintain his fighting capacity. Holding the broken sword in his hand, he fell to the ground with a plop.


    The gap between him and Zhang Xiu is obvious.


    Even if he goes all out, he doesn''t even hurt Zhang Xiu.


    Even if you fight to death, you can''t threaten Zhang Xiu.


    Lost!


    Lingcao''s face was full of regret. He raised his head and looked at Zhang Xiu not far away. His eyes became colder and colder.


    But he is still unwilling!Death, but also serious injury to Zhang Xiu.


    This is Ling Cao''s obsession.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ling Cao who had become a blood man and said coldly, "Ling Cao, you are a man. Even in two swords, did not utter a scream. If it''s not for Ling you, I''ll surrender you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Ling Cao stood up with his sword in his hand.


    He laughed arrogantly.


    Laughter, mixed with pain, but that pair of red eyes, but more arbitrary incomparable.


    Ling Cao, holding the broken sword, threw it to the ground and said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu, even without Ling you''s affairs, I can''t submit to you. I lingcao, life is the Lord''s person, death is the Lord''s ghost. My Lord is extremely brave. You will kill me today, and my Lord will avenge me in the future. "


    "What a pity


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head.


    Ling Cao is a warrior.


    Such a person, even if it is him, also incomparably appreciate. No king does not like warriors and loyal ministers.


    So is Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    Ling Cao no longer spoke. He bit his teeth, endured the split wound, and rushed forward quickly with his sword. In the twinkling of an eye, he came to Zhang Xiu''s body, he now open the empty door, let Zhang Xiu hand.


    He wants to hurt Zhang Xiu.


    Even if you die, you will hurt Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, there is a big gap between the two sides in terms of strength. When Ling Cao rushes forward, Zhang Xiu makes a detour to the back of Ling Cao. The Longquan sword in his hand was raised and stabbed out.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp sword point, from Ling Cao back into. The tip of the sword went straight through Ling Cao''s heart, and the tip of the sword penetrated through the front chest. Drop by drop of blood, from the tip of the sword flow down, dripping on the ground, dyed the ground red.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu drew out the Longquan sword, Ling Cao opened his mouth and spat out blood.


    He fell on his head.


    Between the nose and breath, no breath.


    Red blood flowed out, gurgling on the ground, with a bloody smell.


    Deng Zhan is used to life and death, but it''s normal. Liu Ba rarely saw such bloody killing scenes. He felt uncomfortable when he saw the overflowing blood and the immortal tumbling in his stomach. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, suppressed the agitation in his heart, and constantly took a deep breath to calm his impetuous mood.


    Liu Ba can''t help it, but Zuo pan can''t help it. He smelled the bloody smell in the yard and saw the bloody scene. He ran to one side and squatted down to vomit.


    It''s bloody!


    He was frightened.


    It was so bloody and frightening.


    Zuo pan was a very arrogant and overbearing man, and he felt very powerful. All of a sudden, he found himself in front of Zhang Xiu, like a clown, is a wizard see a wizard.


    Suddenly he was afraid!


    That rampant character, in this moment, was scared to fly to the clouds.


    Originally, Zuo Pan''s character was quite bold, but when he saw the bloody scene, he was already extremely afraid.


    Zhang Xiu saw all the people on the ground, and her eyes fell on Yue Yong, who had not been killed before, but was knocked unconscious by him. Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to leave trouble behind. She mends her sword after going up.


    After killing Yue Yong, Zhang Xiu looked to the left pan and said, "Jiangdong and others are all killed. Now it''s up to you to deal with it. You take your head to the prefecture to get a reward. At least you have to have fifty taels of gold. After all, Ling Cao is a strong general of Jiangdong. "


    Zuo pan covered his chest, stood up quickly, shook his head and said: "no, no, no, I''m not going to get the reward. Prefect Zhang, I''ll take the corpses of these people to the mountains to feed the jackals, tigers and leopards. What do you think? "


    He was scared.


    Originally, he was stupid and bold, but now he saw the bloody killing and did not dare to accept the reward.


    Power is more important than life.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and praised her: "you are smart. If you take Ling Cao''s head to the prefecture to get a reward, you can certainly get benefits. But Jiangdong will aim at you and kill you for revenge. Throw people into the mountains to feed the wolves, destroy the corpses, cut off the news, and no one will look for you again. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Left pan a listen, stare big eyes.


    He was glad in his heart.


    Thanks to the killing in front of us, I dare not receive any more rewards. If you really want to go to the prefecture to get a reward, you''ll be in big trouble.


    Zhang Xiu no longer stayed and said, "Sir, let''s go!"


    "Good!"


    Liuba doesn''t want to stay any longer.


    At the moment, he finally understood why Zhang Xiu could rise in a short time. It is not only Zhang Xiu''s wisdom, but also Zhang Xiu''s good at fighting. What''s more, it is Zhang Xiu''s determination to kill.


    When he looked at Zhang Xiu, there was a touch of awe in his eyes.

 Chapter 207

    Ling Cao once visited Liu Ba and knew him. As soon as he saw Liu Ba coming, he raised a smile on his face and praised: "Zuo pan, well done. I''ll cash your 100 gold. "


    Zuo pan smiles awkwardly.


    He didn''t dare to think about 100 gold. It was a capital crime to cooperate with Jiangdong. Zuo pan also knew that Liu BA was a man of great importance. But he heard that Liu Biao sent people to invite Liu Ba several times, but Liu Ba refused.


    If he helps Jiangdong bind Liuba, the news comes out and is known by Liu Biao, he will surely die.


    Right now, what Zuo pan is thinking about is that he wants to get more benefits. He wants to get Ling Cao''s head and go to the prefecture to get rich. This is the long-term plan and the long-term foothold.


    Zuo pan looked at Zhang Xiu and flattered him: "young master, this is Ling Cao. He has excellent martial arts and is hard to deal with."


    When Ling Cao heard it, he thought it was wrong.


    Hard to deal with?


    Did Zuo pan bring someone to deal with him?


    Ling Cao looked around, did not see more people, only saw Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan are strangers. He followed the left Pan''s eyes, staring at Zhang Xiu, probing: "boy, what do you mean?"


    "Take your men."


    With a faint smile, Zhang Xiu said: "Tangtang lingcao, Jiangdong valiant general, unexpectedly appeared in Jingzhou. The courage of sun ce of Jiangdong is really great. "


    Ling Cao''s hand was on his sword, and his eyes were full of fierce murders.


    "Who are you?"


    Ling Cao bent slightly, ready to go.


    Zhang Xiu said, "who am I? I''m the one who killed you. You Ling Cao, on Sun CE''s order, come to Jingzhou to invite Liu ba. If you don''t succeed in inviting Liu Ba, you will forcibly abduct people. It''s really overbearing. "


    "Sun CE, no problem!"


    "As a man, I have a lot of grudges. I remember once, a man named Zhou Zhong and Ling you sneaked into Xiangyang to kill me, but I killed him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Jiangdong wants to kill me, so all Jiangdong people should die. You, too, will die. "


    Ling Cao''s face was angry and murderous, and said, "did you kill Ling you?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Ling Cao let out his sword and said coldly, "Ling you is the brother of my mother. You kill my brother. Today, I will kill you. Ling you died in Xiangyang, in the hands of Zhang Xiu. So you are Zhang Xiu. "


    Lingcao is also smart.


    Immediately, he guessed the identity of Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Li Xiu said," I guess it''s smart. Unfortunately, there are no rewards. Deng Zhan, make every effort to do it, and do not leave one. "


    "Yes


    Deng Zhan was ordered to pull out his sword.


    Zhang Xiu stood in front of Liu Ba, not in a hurry.


    Zuo pan stood behind Zhang Xiu, his eyes widened, his heart was terrified, and he gulped down a mouthful of saliva. When he looked at Zhang Xiu at the moment, there was more awe and shock in his eyes.


    Although he was in a remote area, he didn''t know about Zhang Xiu. It was a great hero who defeated Xiongnu and even Cao Jun.


    He saw Zhang Xiu!


    In particular, Zhang Xiu is still so young.


    Young and promising!


    Zuo Pan''s heart suddenly felt sad. For himself, at Zhang Xiu''s age, he knew all day long that he was doing piston movement on the bed, and he didn''t have any idea of building meritorious service.


    Deng Zhan went into the crowd with one sword.


    Liu BA''s eyes narrowed, worried: "Lord, will Deng Zhan be in danger?"


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t worry, just have a look."


    When Deng Zhan was under Zhang Xiu''s command, Chen Zhi, Gan Ning and others competed with each other from time to time. His martial arts skills were also improving rapidly. Now in the face of war, Zhang Xiu also wants to see what kind of situation Deng Zhan''s martial arts have reached.


    Ling Cao saw that Deng Zhan was coming, pulled out his sword and quickly cut it down.


    His sword is specially made.


    The body of the sword is wider and the blade is heavier. It''s powerful and full of attack power. Even if the speed of the attack is slower, it is more overbearing.


    With his unique sword and sword technique, Ling Cao has won many battles in the battlefield, so he is full of confidence.


    But Ling Cao''s sword failed.


    When he cut out with one sword, Deng Zhan made a detour to avoid Ling Cao''s attack. The sharp sword in his hand killed the people around him. I saw a flash of light, only heard Yila, Deng Zhan''s sword, cut a warrior''s neck.


    Blood splashes, Deng Zhan continues to fight.


    He didn''t fight with Ling Cao for the time being. As long as Ling Cao came, he avoided and quickly killed the people around him.


    In a moment, four people around Ling Cao died.


    Only Ling Cao and another person were left.


    "Yue Yong, you go to kill Liu Ba, I''ll deal with this man."


    When lingcao saw that the attack was invalid, he immediately gave an order and adjusted his tactics. Especially the speed of Deng Zhan''s hand is fast. Under Deng Zhan''s speed attack, Ling Cao''s people are killed one after another, and Ling Cao is also in a hurry."Rat, have the courage to fight head on."


    Ling Cao yelled.


    At this moment, Ling Cao became anxious. There were so many people around him, all of them died here.


    Deng Zhan faces Ling Cao alone and cuts with one sword. It''s just that the blade collides with Deng Zhan''s blade. In an instant, the great power strikes and makes Deng Zhan''s blade swing away.


    Ling Cao''s move was powerful, and the sword continued to move forward.


    Facing the strong attack, Deng Zhan tilted back to avoid Ling Cao''s sword.


    "Hoo


    Deng Zhan took a long breath after hiding.


    How close!


    Almost, he was hit.


    Deng Zhan finds Ling''s eccentricity in his sword and no longer confronts him head-on. He constantly wanders around looking for opportunities. He was born as a Ranger. Generally speaking, he was an assassin. His swordsmanship was more inclined to attack. If it''s head to head, it''s not good at it.


    While Deng Zhan is fighting, Yue Yong comes to Zhang Xiu, intending to kill Liu ba.


    But when he rushed to Zhang Xiu''s body, before he had time to move, Zhang Xiu had already stepped out. Before the tip of Yue Yong''s sword was handed out, Zhang Xiu reached out and firmly grasped Yue Yong''s wrist.


    As soon as he lifted his hand, Yue Yong''s wrist rose. He could not exert any more force. His sword fell to the ground with a bang.


    Zhang Xiu kicks out.


    This foot has the power of Zhang Xiu.


    "Bang!"


    The toe of the boot hit Yue Yong''s chest. If Yue Yong''s body was struck by lightning, his burly body would fly upside down and crash to the ground.


    His face turned red, his eyes widened, his chest choked and he opened his mouth to breathe, but when he turned white, he fainted.


    In the yard, only Ling Cao was left.


    Zhang Xiu still hasn''t made a move.


    Left pan is still standing behind Zhang Xiu, he and Ling Cao under the command of the people hand in hand. Although he has some brute force, he can''t fight in the hands of Ling Cao''s warriors.


    Ling Cao''s person was knocked unconscious by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    In his heart, he was secretly glad that the gain and loss in Liuba''s house did not lead to disaster. Gain and loss, he is faced with strong Zhang Xiu, admitted directly, otherwise he is already a cold corpse for sure.


    Zhang Xiu carries both hands and continues to watch the fighting.


    The yard is relatively open. Although Deng Zhan can swim flexibly, he can''t get close to Ling Cao and can''t find the opportunity to assassinate him. Once Deng Zhan''s close combat, he will be beaten by Ling Cao immediately.


    In terms of strength, Ling Cao is stronger.


    What''s more, Ling Cao is a veteran on the battlefield, with strong combat effectiveness. In close combat, he always fights with his life.


    Deng Zhan is a Ranger after all.


    In front of a battlefield veteran like Ling Cao, if Deng Zhan wants to kill him in the dark, it will be very easy for him to gain the upper hand. But in the not wide yard, even if Deng Zhan swims flexibly, he can''t occupy the advantage.


    Gradually, Deng Zhan became impatient.


    Ling Cao discovered Deng Zhan''s situation and deliberately missed a flaw. Deng Zhan is eager for success. As soon as he approaches, he is attacked by Ling Cao. Under the continuous attack, Deng Zhan could not avoid.


    Fighting head on, Deng Zhan was defeated completely.


    When Ling Cao swung his sword and chopped it down, the powerful sword had already locked Deng Zhan. Under this sword, Deng Zhan didn''t even have the chance to escape, so he was forced to carry it.


    He held up his sword.


    "Dang!"


    The dull sound of impact suddenly sounded.


    The next moment, Deng Zhan snorted. He only felt the pain of the tiger''s mouth, and his sword had been knocked out.


    Deng Zhan mouth, more a trace of red blood overflow.


    He is not Ling Cao''s opponent at all. If he is assassinated secretly, Deng Zhan has a chance to solve Ling Cao. But he is in danger now.


    Facing the falling sword, Deng Zhan couldn''t avoid it, so he had to close his eyes and wait to die.


    There is a touch of expectation in Ling Cao''s eyes.


    He was about to kill Deng Zhan. Just as Ling Cao''s sword was about to fall, a figure quickly stepped into the battlefield.


    "Bang!"


    It''s as clear as the sound of a dragon''s song, ringing in the yard. A streamer, across the air. That bright light, even Ling Cao feel dazzling.


    The next moment, a touch of sword cutting edge, across the sword under the cutting of Ling Cao.


    "Dang!"


    The harsh crash reverberated in the air.


    Deng Zhan recovered and quickly evacuated, leaving only Zhang Xiu and lingcao in the yard.


    Zhang Xiu examined Ling Cao and said faintly: "Ling Cao, although Ling you died in my hands. But he died easily. Just like the samurai who was killed by Deng Zhan just now, there was no room for resistance, so he died. He died easily, without any pain. There''s no need for you to avenge him. "


    Brush!


    Ling Cao is furious.The more Zhang Xiuyue said that, the more excited Ling Cao was, the more angry he was.

 Chapter 208

    Xiangyang City, west of the city.


    This is a relatively remote and barren place in Xiangyang City.


    Xiangyang City''s dignitaries mainly live in the north of the city. Most of the houses in the west of the city are low buildings rammed with soil. There are no contiguous pavilions, no big families.


    The people who live here are mostly workers.


    Li Yan lives here.


    Li Yan is a tenant. In this barren place, he doesn''t even have his own house. When Li Yan was in Nanyang County, he had a house allocated by the government, followed by his wife and children. With him working in the government, although Li Yan is incorruptible, he doesn''t worry about food and clothing, and he doesn''t worry about spending money, so he can get by.


    No great wealth, no poverty. But when he returned to Xiangyang, his days fell from the sky to the ground and became the bottom of Xiangyang City.


    Prices are higher in Xiangyang City.


    Renting is not cheap.


    Li Yan wants to rent a better house, but he has no money left. In his present condition, he can only live in such a remote place.


    To this day, the government has no news and has not arranged his affairs. Li Yan went to Xiangyang County Yamen in person and asked the magistrate. The result was waiting.


    I don''t know when to wait.


    There''s never been any news.


    Once upon a time, when Li Yan was an official in Nanyang County, all his distant relatives came to ask Li Yan for help or arrange things for him. Even if Li Yan didn''t help, some people praised him, saying that he was a good example for officials.


    From time to time, there are distant relatives to send some eggs, poultry and so on.


    Life at home is very relaxed.


    Now it''s different.


    Li Yan''s family today is as poor as a stone. No more relatives praised him, no more distant relatives who gave gifts, only endless criticism and abuse.


    What''s more, some distant relatives came to Li Yan''s house to ask for the eggs he had given to Li Yan and ask him to return the gifts.


    There are so many wonderful flowers.


    It''s a pity that the world is so cold.


    As the saying goes, the rich have distant relatives in the mountains, and the poor have no one to ask. When Li Yan was an official in Nanyang County, even if he was in a remote place, some people came to visit him, all of them were very pleasant.


    However, when Li Yan came to Xiangyang City, he did not become an official for the time being, and he had no source of income. Although some people came to visit, they all came to ask for things and asked him to return the gifts he had received before.


    Originally, Li Yan was not rich.


    He is also a person with lofty disposition. When others ask for repayment, he doesn''t hesitate to exchange money directly.


    One to two, the family is even more poor, life is difficult.


    Li Yan''s temperament is quite noble. Even in trouble, he doesn''t like to borrow money from his friends. When he was in trouble, he didn''t like to let his friends know and didn''t want to let his embarrassed side be seen by his friends.


    So in the extremely difficult situation, Li Yan made a change. Every morning, he took out his back basket, took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and made a simple stall to go to the street and write letters for others.


    Although the income is meager, the family will not run out of food and can still maintain it.


    For several days in a row, the income is also increasing.


    After all, Li Yan has been a scholar since he was a child. His calligraphy is excellent. He is well-informed and has strong memory. He is familiar with allusions and has a good literary talent. So after he set up a stall, from the beginning of nobody''s interest, to the business booming.


    However, after the appearance of Li Yan, the business of some down-to-earth scholars in the original streets became worse.


    Li Yan didn''t take care of these.


    He himself has a hard time. If he can earn income, he will be happy, but he can also make a living in hardship.


    On this day, Li Yan was still at his usual time. At dawn, he arrived at the market early, put up the stalls, and sat down to wait for business. Just as he had just sat down, the people who set up the stalls around him gathered one by one and came to Li Yan''s position.


    Seeing this, Li Yan sank his heart and said, "what are you going to do?"


    "Hit you!"


    One of them, answer out loud.


    After the sound came out, he jumped, rushed to Li Yan''s body, and swung his fist. The rest of the people, one by one, came to Li Yan''s body. Without saying a word, they swung their fists and smashed them down.


    Li Yan lay on the ground and was beaten black and blue. He wants to open his mouth, but what he can get is still a fist.


    I was beaten badly.


    "Go away!"


    "Boy, come here again. Next time, we''ll hit you."


    "Once I see you, once I hit you!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the people who took the shot began to drink and scold Li Yan, and their faces were full of disdain and disdain. The people who worship calligraphy and painting stalls nearby didn''t plan to clean up Li Yan, but Li Yan''s business was so good that he robbed everyone of their jobs, leading all the people to unite to deal with Li Yan.Li Yan was even more miserable.


    There''s blood spilling from the corner of the mouth.


    "Go


    The leader yelled and the swarm dispersed.


    Li Yan still covered his head. After a while, he released his hand to protect his head and looked up. All around him is empty. Because he came early, there was no common people around him, and no evidence could be found.


    Li Yan, a former official, knows very well that even if he reports to the government, no one will testify. Even if he identifies these people, he can''t stand up. What''s more, he didn''t even know the names of these people.


    It''s all gone. There''s no one.


    He didn''t run the county government. It''s impossible to fight because of his words.


    Li Yan''s cheek was burning and he limped up. First, he sat down and straightened his untidy hair. Then he put away his painting and calligraphy stall, picked up his basket and limped back.


    At the moment, Li Yan bent his back, dressed in rags, his face was bruised everywhere, and the corners of his eyes were cracked with blood. After the blood overflowed, Li Yan gasped in pain.


    He felt his cheek burning. He wiped it with his clothes. When he found blood, he quickly wiped it clean before he went back.


    When he came to his home, Li Yan looked at his family''s house and felt sad.


    He didn''t know how to deal with his wife and children.


    Are you going home?


    He couldn''t hang on his face and didn''t know how to explain to his wife.


    Li Yan put down the basket on his back and sat at the gate of the yard with a sigh. As the sun rises, the golden light falls on Li Yan. On the contrary, it makes Li Yan''s rickety figure even worse.


    Seeing that there were more people coming and going, Li Yan stood up, picked up the basket with pen, ink, paper and inkstone, pushed open the door and went in.


    In the yard, a woman was chopping wood.


    This woman, Li Yan''s wife, is two or three years younger than Li Yan. She has a dignified appearance and a scholarly air. Before she married Li Yan, she was also a scholar, and her family was from Nanyang.


    She followed Li Yan and had a good life. It was only after she arrived in Xiangyang that she became very difficult.


    Now, her dowry has run out.


    The family is poor and the days are hard.


    She heard the sound of the door being pushed open, looked up and saw Li Yan come back with blood on his face. She exclaimed, threw away the firewood knife in her hand, ran to Li Yan''s side and worried, "husband, what''s the matter with you?"


    She is very worried about Li Yan.


    Li Yan has been out these days, and he can earn money. His life has improved a lot.


    Li''s family felt that somehow they were relieved.


    I didn''t expect it to happen again.


    Li Yan put down the basket behind him and said with a sad smile, "it''s nothing. It''s not in the way. It''s just a fall."


    Li said, "it''s impossible!"


    She is not a fool, how can not see the injury. Seeing Li Yan''s injuries, he said, "who did you fight with? You are a weak scholar. How can you be the opponent of others? "


    Li Yan bowed his head and sighed: "it''s not who I want to fight with. I set up the stall well, and the people around me rushed up and knocked me over directly. What can I do?"


    Li was very angry and said in a loud voice: "husband, we''ll report to the official. I don''t believe it. Is there no royal law?"


    "No use!"


    Li Yan shook his head and sighed: "I am also an official. Don''t you know how to deal with this situation? Without evidence, it doesn''t work at all. Even if it''s an identification, it doesn''t work. "


    "But..."


    Li''s eyes were full of worry.


    Li Yan said: "it''s nothing, but that''s it. Lady, I''m going to have a rest. I won''t go out today. Tomorrow morning, I''ll set up a stall in another place and find a more remote place. "


    Li wanted to persuade, but Li Yan didn''t speak and went straight to the room.


    Li Yan said that he was going to have a rest. In fact, he hid himself and licked the injured wound. The injury on the body can be recovered quickly, but the injury on the heart can not be recovered in a short time.


    Li sat in the yard, big tears, such as off-line, splashed down and soaked his cheeks. At least his son went out to play, but he didn''t see this scene.


    It took a while for her to recover.


    Sitting in the yard, she lifted the axe in her hand and sighed at the wood in front of her eyes.


    When is the end of this day?

 Chapter 209

    The next day, early in the morning.


    The early spring sun rises early.


    Li Yan got up early in the morning, simply drank a bowl of porridge left over from last night, carried a basket on his back, took pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and said goodbye to his wife. Before he left, he also said where to go, so as to reassure his wife.


    Li Yan limped out of the door.


    Yesterday''s injury was quite serious. He had a day''s rest. His legs and feet were not sharp and his face was bruised.


    He wanted to heal.


    But with a wife and children at home, especially a son in his teens, it''s time to grow up. He can''t cultivate himself. Even if it''s hard to set up a stall, he has to go out to earn money.


    He is the pillar of the family.


    If he doesn''t go out, who will?


    After Li Yan left early, Li prepared breakfast for his son, and then sent him out to play. Despite the hardship of his family, Li never lacked eggs and meat for his son. After all, the child is growing up.


    Li was busy in the yard, sewing and mending. When she was at home alone, she also took over some jobs, which were sewing and mending, washing and subsidizing her family.


    Half an hour after Li Yan left, a carriage came slowly towards Li Yan''s door.


    The people in the carriage were Zhang Xiu and Liu ba.


    Deng Zhan is a driver.


    Liu Ba said with a smile: "Lord, Li Yan lives in a remote place. He has a proud disposition and is unwilling to ask his friends for help even though the days are hard. I asked him to live in the bamboo sea for a while, but he refused. This man''s temper is still a little stubborn. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "so, Li Yan''s situation is not very good."


    "It''s not just bad!"


    Liu Ba shook his head and said, "it''s very bad now. After he arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Biao didn''t make any arrangements."


    Zhang Xiu nods and talks about Li Yan with Liu ba. Gradually she gets to know Li Yan better.


    Li Yan is a scholar.


    So, it''s not funded.


    Even friends do.


    He was also a little lonely and arrogant, so when he arrived in Xiangyang, he came to such a state. Zhang Xiu would never be like Li Yan. Since a friend, especially a friend, is willing to help, why refuse?


    Accepting a friend''s help is not necessarily a loss.


    When you can live through the hardships and be prosperous, you still remember the past kindness. That''s the real man.


    "Woo!"


    The carriage stopped.


    Deng Zhan took the lead to get out of the carriage, took down the low stool and put it next to the carriage. He bowed and said, "here we are, Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu and Liu Ba got off the bus one after another.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the house where Li Yan lives, shakes her head and goes up. When they came to the gate of the yard, they could see everything in the yard. At this time, Li was mending his clothes.


    The light in the room is not good. Li''s sewing is all done in the yard.


    Liu Ba Tui opened the door and was the first to enter.


    He knows Li.


    In the same way, Li also knew Liu ba. As soon as he saw Liu Ba coming, he quickly put down his needle and thread, got up and straightened his wrinkled clothes, leaned over and said, "how did Mr. Liu come?"


    Liu Ba said with a smile: "I''m here today to recommend a person to Zhengfang and to find something for him. What about other people? "


    Zhengfang is Li Yan''s word.


    Li''s eyes immediately fell on Zhang Xiu. She used to be with Li Yan. Although she is down now, she has seen some of the world. When she saw Zhang Xiu, she knew that she must be the leader.


    Li said: "Mr. Liu, my husband went to pingkangfang and set up a stall to sell words."


    "Stall?"


    Liu Ba Leng said: "when did Zhengfang start to set up a stall?"


    Li''s also some unnatural smile, truthfully said: "even a few days ago, the time is not long. If you can''t pick up your hand, you can only do some writing and painting to subsidize your family. "


    Liu Ba said, "that''s OK. I''ll find someone."


    Li Shi way: "otherwise, Li childe and noble wait a moment, I go to call husband to come back."


    "No need!"


    Liu Ba shakes his head. He knows pingkangfang.


    He nodded to Zhang Xiu and walked out of the house together.


    Liu Ba reminded: "when you go to pingkangfang, you can take a hat to avoid being found. After all, Xiangyang City is full of people and eyes. If I recognize you, it''s not good. "


    "All right!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Liu Ba turns around and returns to find Li Shi, takes a bamboo hat to Zhang Xiu, and goes straight to pingkang square. In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiu and Liu Ba arrived not far from the place where Li lived.


    This street is not very prosperous.


    There are not many people coming and going.


    It''s the west of the city, after all.


    When Zhang Xiu and Liu Ba arrived, they were surprised to see that Li Yan was knocked over again. There were five people who were beating Li Yan, knocking him to the ground and kicking him.Zhang Xiu doesn''t know Li Yan.


    But Liu Ba knew him. When he saw Li Yan who had fallen to the ground, he hurriedly said, "Lord, it''s Li Yan who was beaten."


    Zhang xiudao: "Deng Zhan, save people!"


    "Yes


    After listening, Deng Zhan stepped into the street quickly. He took the sword from his waist and took it out with the scabbard. Only a few muffled sounds came out. Under the impact of the scabbard, all the five people who besieged Li Yan were knocked to the ground.


    Then, Deng Zhan bent down and helped Li Yan to the ground.


    At the moment, Li Yan''s eyes split.


    All over the body, there are scars.


    His elegant cheek was full of bruises. Thanks to Li Yan''s holding his head in both hands when he fell to the ground, his head would not be hurt.


    Liu Ba went up in a hurry.


    When he saw Li Yan''s injury, he was heartbroken and said, "Zhengfang, something happened. Why don''t you tell me? Do you regard me as your old friend


    Li Yan gave a miserable smile.


    His legs were trembling slightly, because just now, those people punched and kicked him in the thigh, which hurt his thigh and hurt him a lot.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept and found that the person who had fallen to the ground was ready to escape. He had a sharp look in his eyes and yelled, "don''t move. Whoever dares to leave, I''ll kill anyone."


    Sen Leng''s murderous spirit diffused from Zhang Xiu''s body.


    Brush!


    The faces of the people who beat Li Yan changed greatly. They were all worried and did not dare to run away. Now they find that they can bully Li Yan at will, but they also have a background.


    If I had known that, I shouldn''t have dealt with Li Yan yesterday.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Li Yan, what should we do with these people?"


    Li Yan said, "let them go!"


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised. She didn''t expect that Li Yan was beaten and didn''t fight back.


    Liu Ba couldn''t see it any more. He yelled: "Zhengfang, they beat you and bullied you so much. You want them to leave? Your brain is not fooled. "


    Li Yan sighed and said, "after all, they are all poor people. Bullying them, what can I get? It doesn''t make sense. Even if I beat them hard, can I recover from my injury? No! Even if you kill them, it won''t help. What''s more, I set up a stall to rob them of their business and cut off their jobs and wealth. "


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to hear Li Yan''s words.


    Li Yan has a good temper.


    At this point, we should also pay attention to repaying the bad with the good. Maybe today''s Li Yan is just like this. After all, Li Yan''s time in officialdom is not very long, not to the point of thick face and black heart.


    What Li Yan is experiencing now has a great impact on Li Yan himself.


    He is very bitter, others are not bitter?


    Consider yourself and others!


    He thinks of his own situation and also of others.


    It''s good for Li Yan to have such a compassionate heart at such a time of depression. For many people, when they encounter suffering, they may change their mind and go to extremes completely.

 Chapter 210

    Zhang Xiu takes Deng Zhan and goes south quickly.


    There was no delay along the way. Zhang Xiu must be in a hurry to visit the people recommended by Kuai Liang earlier so that she can return to Nanyang earlier and go north to take part in the war against Guanzhong.


    The battle of Guanzhong is very important.


    Zhang Xiu must attend in person.


    He went south from Xiangyang and visited along the way according to the people recommended by Kuai Liang. As Zhang Xiu is now, it is not too difficult to attract talents. After all, Zhang Xiu is the prefect of Nanyang County and the Zhennan general appointed by the imperial court.


    Zhang Xiu has both fame and strength.


    However, except for Liu Ba and Li Yan, Zhang Xiu did not disclose the news about Kuai Liang to anyone. Although some of the talents recruited on the way to the South also have certain abilities, they are much worse than Liu Ba and Li Yan.


    Moreover, Liu Ba despises Liu Biao.


    Li Yan suffered a lot from Liu Biao.


    They both stand on the opposite side of Liu Biao. Under such a premise, even if Liu Ba and Li Yan know that Kuai Liang and his family have surrendered to Zhang Xiu, they can''t say it.


    Others are different.


    Zhang Xiu is not at ease.


    He visited them one by one. In the letters recommended by Kuai Liang, 80% of them chose to join Zhang Xiu and would like to go north to Nanyang County. But there are also 20% of the people, euphemistic refused to Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, still not official.


    That''s what everyone wants.


    Zhang Xiu also does not demand, solicits not to succeed, he does not delay, continues south.


    In a short period of half a month, Zhang Xiu has crossed the whole South County and entered Changsha County.


    Changsha County, located in the southeast of Nanjun, is located in Linxiang county.


    It''s Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha.


    He has a good reputation and ordinary ability to govern, but Han Xuan is a famous man.


    Zhang Xiu is not very interested in Han Xuan''s deeds, but in Huang Zhong. According to the information provided by Kuai Liang, Huang Zhong, now in Linxiang County, is a partial general in the army.


    It''s just that Huang Zhong is not very important.


    According to the information provided by Kuai Liang, Zhang Xiu found Huang Zhong''s house in the city.


    Huang''s house is in the north of the county.


    In fact, Huang Zhong''s house is extremely remote and small. There are no so-called pavilions, no so-called high walls to protect the courtyard. It is just a few houses rammed with soil. Outside the house, bamboo is inserted into the soil to form a circle of courtyard.


    The yard is very wide. There are stone mills, archery targets, martial arts training places, and some flowers and plants to hold a lot of things.


    When Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan arrived, Deng Zhan glanced at them and muttered, "according to the Lord, Huang Zhong has the courage that no one should be brave. Even Chen Dao and Gan Ning are not rivals. Can such people live in such a humble place?"


    Zhang Xiu smiles and says, "if it''s not for Huang Zhong''s downfall, can I have a chance to attract him? It''s because it''s hard for the other party to reach out if they want to, and if they can''t use their talents, then I have a chance. "


    Deng Zhan said awkwardly: "my Lord is wise!"


    He''s been attacked again.


    This has become a routine, but Deng Zhan''s face is thick, and he doesn''t think it''s anything.


    Deng Zhan dismounted and knocked on the door.


    "Bang! Bang


    When the door ring was knocked, Deng Zhan took a breath and said in a loud voice, "is anyone there?"


    "To whom?"


    In the room, there was a clear and pleasant sound.


    A beautiful figure, stride out.


    This woman is about seventeen or eighteen years old. Her hair is not loose. It is not the hairstyle of a woman in a boudoir. She has a bun like a man. She was dressed simply, but she was valiant and had the spirit of a woman.


    A woman''s cheek is not as white as suede, nor as beautiful as a beautiful country, but it has a healthy wheat color. Especially that pair of eyes, black and shiny, through perseverance and toughness, appear confident and calm.


    She has a different temperament.


    Looking at the woman carefully, in fact, she is not very delicate, not natural beauty, but the overall sensory blend together, but give people a bright feeling.


    The woman''s name is Huang Wan.


    She is Huang Zhong''s eldest daughter and the elder sister of Huang Xu, Huang Zhong''s son.


    After seeing Huang Wan, Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes, strode forward and said, "please tell me. I''m here to visit Huang Zhong."


    Zhang Xiu?


    Huang Wan was a little surprised. He soon recovered his calm and said, "which one is Zhang Xiu, young master?"


    Although Huang Wan was almost at home, from his father''s mouth, he knew something about the outside world. He also knew that the Marquis of Nanyang was Zhang Xiu. He also knew that Zhang Xiu defeated the Huns and killed Zuo Xian King Hu Chuquan.


    Huang Wan is a woman who has been practicing martial arts since she was a child.


    She practices martial arts with Huang Zhong. Although she is not as powerful as a man, her martial arts are quite powerful. Huang Wan is a daughter, but she also yearns for fighting in the battlefield. In particular, she admired Zhang Xiu''s killing of Xiongnu people, and wished she would go to the battlefield to kill Xiongnu people.Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Nanyang Prefecture Zhang Xiu!"


    Huang Wan''s face was flushed and excited. She waved her hand and said, "please come inside, young master!"


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu thanks and takes Deng Zhan to enter.


    Deng Zhan followed Zhang Xiu with a touch of pride on his face. He followed Zhang Xiu to the south, from Xiangyang to Changsha County. Along the way, Zhang Xiu visited many famous people, most of them. As long as Zhang Xiu said his name, the other side was extremely respectful.


    That''s the beauty of fame.


    Deng Zhan didn''t read much, but he also figured out some ways at the moment.


    After Huang Wan took Zhang Xiu to the courtyard and sat down, he made tea for her and asked her to drink tea. He said, "Madam Zhang, my father is on duty in the army. I guess I''ll come home when it''s getting dark. Why don''t you wait a moment? "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answers with a smile.


    It''s afternoon Shenshi, and it''s not far from dark in the evening. What''s more, Huang Zhong is the last person he recruited. As long as Huang Zhong is recruited, Zhang Xiu can go north.


    So Zhang Xiu has time.


    While Zhang Xiu was drinking tea, Huang Wan went back to the room and went to the house on the far left side of the courtyard.


    In the house lay a weak and thin young man.


    At the age of fifteen or sixteen, he was a little short of breath, skinny, and his cheeks were a little pale, which made him very unhealthy. Only his eyes, dribbling and turning, showing smart and smart.


    This is Huang Xu.


    He is Huang Zhong''s youngest son and Huang Zhong''s only son now.


    Huang Xu saw Huang Wan enter, and a smile appeared on his pale face. He said in a low voice, "elder sister, I heard someone talking outside. Did my father come back ahead of time?"


    Earlier in his life, Huang Zhong''s wife died of illness. It''s hard for him to lead a life with two children, be a father and a mother, but Huang Zhong has survived.


    Most of the time, Huang Zhong is busy with things outside. Huang Wan takes care of Huang Xu.


    For Huang Xu, the elder sister is like a mother.


    Huang Wan sat down beside the bed and said with a smile, "Dad is in the army. How can he come back early? It''s not Dad coming back, it''s someone visiting him. Xu''er, do you know who is going to visit my father? "


    "Who?" Huang asked


    "The person you admire the most," Huang said


    Huang Xu''s eyes were more flexible. His hoarse voice was raised and he asked, "is it Zhang Xiu?"


    Although Huang Xu''s body and bones are not good, he yearns for martial arts more than ordinary people. The more he can''t practice martial arts, the more he hopes to become stronger.


    He often listens to Huang Zhong. I especially like to hear Huang Zhong say that Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu people and killed huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu. Every time I hear it, I feel excited.


    Huang Xu has great respect for Zhang Xiu.


    According to Huang Xu''s information, Zhang Xiu is no more than a few years older than him. He is already the prefect of Nanyang County. He has killed the Huns and the king Zuo Xian of the Huns, which makes Huang Xu feel ashamed.


    He himself can only lie on the bed.


    He adores Zhang Xiu.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu came to visit Huang Zhong.


    Huang Xu pondered in his heart, his excitement faded, and his expression returned to calm. He said in a deep voice, "elder sister, my father said that Zhang Taishou is in Nanyang County, the northernmost part of Jingzhou. How can he come to Changsha County? Is this man a fake?"


    Huang Xu was not good at martial arts. He spent most of his time on his bed. In addition to reading books, he is reading books. Although he is not good at martial arts, his brain is extremely flexible.


    Huang Wan''s heart thumped when she heard it.


    She thinks it''s possible!


    The younger brother''s inference has always been extremely correct. Zhang Xiu is busy with the war in the north, so she has no spare time to come to Changsha.

 Chapter 211

    Huang Wan''s black and shining eyes, dribbling and turning, inquired: "Xu''er, is the person you are talking about the person Han Hu is looking for?"


    Han Hu is Han Xuan''s nephew.


    He is lustful and has married a concubine. Once upon a time, after meeting Huang Wan, Han Hu pursues everything and wants to marry Huang Wan, but Huang Wan refuses.


    After thinking about it, Huang Xu said, "it''s possible that Han Hu knows you better. He knows that you worship Zhang Xiu, and it''s possible to find someone to fake Zhang Xiu and tease you. "


    Huang Wan said, "what should we do then?"


    Huang Xu raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and said, "sister, isn''t it simple? Hit him in the way you''re best at until he admits defeat. "


    Huang Wan''s eyes also shine.


    That''s good advice.


    Huang Wan suddenly said, "in case, is he really Zhang Xiu?"


    Huang Xu said, "my good sister, you are so stupid. It''s not a problem as long as you put it right. Come on, help me out of the wheelchair


    "Good!"


    Huang Wan responded with pleasure.


    The so-called wheelchair at home is made by Huang Zhong himself. It uses two wheels to support the chair and let Huang Xu sit on it. It''s very simple, but it can make Huang Xu look around.


    Huang Wan''s strength is excellent. In addition, Huang Xu is skinny. As soon as he reaches for it, he picks up Huang Xu, puts it firmly on the wheelchair, and pushes the wheelchair out of the room.


    Zhang Xiu is drinking tea.


    He is not anxious, but patient.


    Huang Xu''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He saw that Zhang Xiu was sitting with a straight figure. He was not angry with himself. He played drums in his heart. This person''s bearing was different, some of them were not like ordinary people.


    Maybe it''s really Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Xu had a guess, but he didn''t show it. He said: "the martial arts of Zhang Taishou is very good. My sister has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she has some courage. Now I have nothing to do. My elder sister hopes to ask for advice from Zhang Taishou. Please give me advice. "


    Huang Wanyue wanted to try, and her eyes were excited.


    She''s a militant.


    Although she is a woman, even if Han Hu is in front of her, she can''t make ten moves. Several times, Han Hu wanted to abduct her, but she beat her to death.


    Zhang xiudao: "no problem, but since the contest, you don''t use weapons, unarmed contest."


    "No problem!"


    Huang Xu agreed directly.


    He nodded to Huang Wan, throwing encouraging eyes. Even Huang Xu himself is looking forward to it. He is very confident in his sister''s martial arts. He wants to see how far the gap between Huang Wan and Zhang Xiu is.


    He knows that Huang Wan can''t win the real Zhang Xiu.


    If the present Zhang Xiu wins, it may be true.


    If Zhang Xiu fails, it must be a fake.


    This is Huang Xu''s judgment.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and went to the center of the yard. She lifted her robe with her left hand and reached out with her right hand. She put her palm flat in front of her body and said with a smile, "Miss Huang, please give me some advice!"


    Huang Wan went to the opposite side of Zhang Xiu, his back slightly arched, and his expression became dignified.


    Her expression was very solemn.


    She has her own martial arts practice with Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong has always taught her that competition is a very serious thing, not a joke.


    As long as we fight, we will do our best.


    "Kill


    Huang Wan gave a low drink, clenched his right hand and hit it.


    Zhang Xiu saw Huang Wan killed and remained motionless. As soon as his fist was near, he lifted his body slightly. As soon as his palm was raised, he clenched the void, closed his fingers and pecked down.


    Bang!!


    A dull sound came out.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand is like a bird''s beak pecking on the wood.


    Under the impact of a light but dexterous force, Huang Wan''s arm was numb, like an electric shock, and the conditioned reflex retreated. She stood in front of Zhang Xiu''s body, raised her left leg and swept directly to Zhang Xiu''s temple.


    "Hoo


    There was a whistling sound on his thighs.


    Zhang Xiu stood still again, his hands raised, palms closed. Right palm in front, left palm in back, push out slowly. Speaking late, then fast, the palm hit Huang Wan''s leg bone.


    "Bang!"


    There was a crash.


    Zhang Xiu is still in place, Huang Wan in the anti shock force, pedaling back two steps to stabilize the body.


    Huang Xu looked at him from behind, his eyes wide open.


    In his eyes, a brilliant light flashed.


    A moment ago, Zhang Xiu and Huang Wan met several times. We can see some clues. Although Huang Xu doesn''t practice martial arts, he has a lot of insight. He finds that Zhang Xiu doesn''t even move her feet, and her martial arts are far beyond Huang Wan''s.


    He is not worried about Huang Wan''s safety.


    Zhang Xiu came to visit Huang Zhong. She couldn''t do her best. She had to be more restrained.


    At the moment, Huang Wan is full of energy and fighting spirit. She clenched her teeth and twisted her waist again. Slender jade legs, raised in the air, toward Zhang Xiu chop down.This is Huang Wan''s art of pressing the bottom of the box.


    With the help of the strength of the leg attack, often can play an effect. But she continued to attack, constantly lift legs out, has never achieved any effect.


    From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu did not move.


    Huang Wan because of excessive transport capacity, his face a little more red, eyes staring at Zhang Xiu, once again swung his legs to attack. Her attack power is more and more strong, when reaching the strongest, Zhang Xiu is also slightly focused.


    Saw Zhang Xiu to have the movement, the legs assumes the eight character step to spread, nailed to the ground. When Huang Wan''s thigh was chopped down, Zhang Xiu''s folded palms increased her strength and still pushed outward.


    "Bang!"


    The dull sound sounded again.


    Under the power of this blow, Zhang Xiu''s palm was a bit numb. After all, it was his palm that resisted Huang Wan''s attack.


    He stood where he was, still motionless.


    But with peiran''s strength, Huang Wan couldn''t keep his body steady. As soon as his feet fell to the ground, he lost his center of gravity and stepped back. He was about to fall to the ground when he saw his body rising backward.


    "Ah


    The cry of surprise came from Huang Wan''s mouth.


    Zhang Xiu''s feet moved, and the whole person rushed out quickly. In an instant, he came to Huang Wan''s body. With an ape arm, he took Huang Wan''s waist, hugged Huang Wan who had fallen down, and asked, "are you ok?"


    "No, no!"


    Huang Wan is hugged by Zhang Xiu and rubs red clouds on her face.


    Just now because of excessive force and red cheek, also can''t cover this rising red haze. Huang Wan felt that her cheeks were hot, especially under the impact of Zhang Xiu''s breath, she felt dizzy.


    "Son of a bitch, bully my daughter and fight!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from the gate of the yard. At the moment when the sound came out, a strong wind came from the back of Zhang Xiu and went straight to her back.


    But Huang Zhong came back.


    Zhang Xiu heart a Lin, hand a shake, let Huang Wan stand up, to one side to stand.


    Then, Zhang Xiu sidestepped to avoid.


    Huang Wan looks worried in her eyes. She opens her mouth to explain, but Huang Xu stops her.


    Huang Xu rubbed his hands in the wheelchair and said excitedly: "elder sister, this may really be Zhang Xiu herself. Zhang Xiu is a man who can kill Xiongnu and has excellent martial arts. Our father, that is also able to tear tiger and leopard. Let them compete and see who is better? "


    At the moment, Huang Xu has no flesh on his face, and even gives people the feeling of weakness. But his eyes are shining with brilliant colors, and become more flexible and energetic.


    Huang wanwen''s speech is also full of expectation.


    It''s really an opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu herself did not make a voice to refute the explanation. After avoiding Huang Zhong''s attack, he focused on the attack.


    Huang Zhong did not say a word, his eyes were angry and he punched again.


    Huang Zhong is now in his early 40s.


    Huang Zhong of this age has excellent martial arts skills and is in the peak period. It''s terrible to have strength, experience and experience. In history, when Huang Zhong and Guan Yu fought, Huang Zhong was more than 60 years old. His Qi and blood were declining, and his strength was declining, so he could compete with Guan Yu.


    At this time, Huang Zhong was extremely strong.


    Huang Zhong''s fists were like a drum, with a roaring sound. The fist is close to Zhang Xiu, but it doesn''t hit her, which makes her feel murderous.


    Zhang Xiu summoned up her strength, but she didn''t want to avoid it, so she met her directly.


    "Bang!"


    Fists and fists, smash together.


    Two people''s first confrontation, fight a match, did not divide the outcome.


    Huang Zhong''s murderous spirit did not converge at all, and his attack became more and more fierce. Zhang Xiu constantly resist, eyes more dignified. His fighting skills are quite pure. When he competes with Huang Zhong, he constantly borrows his strength and even takes off Huang Zhong''s attack power.


    That''s the way to stop it.


    But Huang Zhong''s strong attack, wave after wave, even to the point of one force down ten will.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s skill is powerful, it has gradually become useless.


    In strength, Zhang Xiu is weaker.

 Chapter 212

    Seeing that Li Yan had said so, Liu Ba stopped persuading him and said, "go home and talk to you about something."


    "Good!"


    Li Yan responded directly.


    He was a little lucky, thanks to Liuba arrived in time, otherwise I don''t know what he would be like. But there was also some loss. He hoped that in front of his old friends, he would be all-round, not so down-to-earth.


    But the most miserable appearance was seen by Liu ba. Li Yan didn''t even have the mind to explore Zhang Xiu''s identity at the moment, and didn''t speak all the way.


    Liu Ba and Zhang Xiu do not speak, in a quiet atmosphere, back home.


    When Li saw that her husband was beaten again, he was so anxious that his tears fell like raindrops dropping off the line.


    Her heart aches.


    Her husband is also a talented person. In order to wait for Liu Biao''s arrangement, life is so difficult. Looking at Xiangyang, she said, "we can''t stay in other places. With her husband''s talent, someone will appreciate her. "


    "It''s all right!"


    Li Yan waved his hand and tried to adjust himself. He asked Li to make tea, then went back to the room, washed his face and changed into a clean and tidy suit.


    This suit is the only good one he has left.


    The rest of the clothes were pawned.


    Li Yan put on his clothes and went out of the room. Li had already made tea and went back to the room.


    In the courtyard, Liu Ba, Zhang Xiu and Li Yan sit opposite each other.


    Li Yan poured tea for Liu Ba and Zhang Xiu, endured the pain of his body, and slowly said: "the humble house is simple and crude, there is nothing to entertain them. We can only use tea instead of wine. Please forgive me."


    His breath returned to stability.


    Although Li Yan''s family is poor, he has his own bearing.


    This is a poetic atmosphere.


    It''s also a scholar''s temperament.


    Zhang Xiu takes down the bamboo hat, puts it aside and nods to Deng Zhan not far away. Then she sees that Deng Zhan goes to the gate of the yard to keep watch and keep away.


    Li Yan took a look at Zhang Xiu.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu was wearing a bamboo hat. He didn''t know Zhang Xiu, and he didn''t know why Liu Ba brought Zhang Xiu.


    Li Yan looks at Liu Ba again.


    He only knows Liu ba. Liu Ba brings people to him. He is sure that Liu Ba knows things.


    Liu Ba opened the door to the mountain and said, "Zhengfang, I''ve become an official for my brother."


    Li Yan was surprised and said, "brother, who do you work for?"


    Li Yan knows Liu BA''s character. This master is arrogant and ordinary people don''t get into Liu BA''s eyes.


    Liu Babai pointed to Zhang Xiu and said, "this is our Lord, Zhang Xiu, the governor of Nanyang. You have talent, you have the ability to govern. My Lord asked me to lead the way and invite you to be an official. Are you willing to serve the Lord


    Li Yan''s eyes widened.


    Is the person in front of you Zhang Xiu?


    It''s too young.


    When Li Yan was an official in Nanyang County, although he had never seen Zhang Xiu, he had heard of her name since last year. The word Zhang Xiu may have no influence in other places, but in Nanyang County, it is like thunder.


    No one does not know Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu first entered Yuyang county and killed Liu PI and Gong Du with a weak force.


    Zhang Xiu destroys Deng''s family!


    Zhang Xiu defeated Wei Yan!


    Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu!


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, one by one, is known by countless people. In Li Yan''s expectation, Zhang Xiu should be at least 27 or 28 years old, young and promising. Unexpectedly, she was only about 20 years old, so she was too young.


    In particular, during her short time in Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu developed production, encouraged farmers and businessmen, restored people''s livelihood and made people''s life prosperous.


    This is what Li Yan admires.


    Li Yan has his own views on the standards of officials.


    He believes that officials, no matter what their reputation, ability or ability to fight, are not the standard of judgment. There is only one criterion to judge whether an official is competent or not, that is, whether the people under his rule are living well or not.


    This is the simplest measure.


    It is enough for the people under Zhang Xiu to have a good life.


    This can be called a good official.


    Li Yan fell into his own thoughts. He didn''t come back until Liu Ba called him. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said: "I''ve heard about the name of Zhang Taizhou many times, but I never saw it. It''s really a great honor to see the governor today. "


    With these words, he stood up in front of Zhang Xiu, folded his hands, bowed 90 degrees, and solemnly said, "I''m sure you''ll never give up. I''m willing to urge you."


    When the words came out, next to the window in the room, Li heard Li Yan''s words when he became an official, and immediately burst into tears.


    It''s over!


    It''s finally over!


    During this time in Xiangyang, it was a dark day at home. At first, their family was pretty good. Later, the family had no spare money, and it was hard for them to survive. They were ridiculed by many neighbors, and some relatives fell into the well.Fortunately, the child is small and not sensible.


    Li was so happy that he wiped the tears off his face and sat down to smile.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Li Yan to sit down and said, "Zhengfang, there is still a lack of meritorious Cao under my command. If you work for me, you will take up the position of meritorious Cao and assist my official in handling government affairs. "


    "Thank you


    Li Yan thanks again.


    At the moment, his eyes are hot, and there is a feeling of tears in his eyes.


    During his short time in Xiangyang City, he was in trouble and was looking forward to becoming an official and supporting his family. Especially when he was the poorest, he lowered his demands and had the idea of being a county magistrate.


    He is willing to do anything.


    Now, he got the respect of Zhang Xiu, and was able to work around Zhang Xiu, which is a golden opportunity.


    Everyone knows that Zhang Xiu has a bright future.


    It''s good luck to follow Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Li Yan felt that he had lived through the most difficult days.


    After Li Yan sat down, Zhang Xiu continued: "Zhengfang, you and Zichu go north together and go straight to Yuyang county to find Xu Shu. I will write a letter to let Xu Shu settle you down. "


    Zichu is the character of Liuba.


    After Liu BA''s surrender, Zhang Xiu called Liu Ba Mr. Liu bajian, but Liu bajian never agreed, saying that he was not qualified enough, and let Zhang Xiu address him.


    Liu BA was surprised and said, "where''s my lord?"


    On the way here, he didn''t hear Zhang Xiu say the next arrangement. He thought that Zhang Xiu would go north to Yuyang county with him, but he didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was different from them.


    "I''ll go to Changsha," he said


    "Who?" asked Liu ba


    Zhang Xiu said, "Huang Zhong!"


    Liu Ba shook his head and said, "Huang Zhong is a man who has never heard of his humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in addition to Huang Zhong, there are also some people recommended by Kuai Liang. Since we are going south to Xiangyang, we must visit everyone. Now we are in a time of strength expansion, and we are in urgent need of talents. "


    Liu Ba said no more, and said: "in that case, I will go north with Zhengfang. Please don''t worry, my Lord. I''ll take care of the right things. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''m not worried about having a son for the first time."


    Li Yan suddenly interjected: "the Lord mentioned Kuai Liang just now. Is it Kuai liang of the Kuai family in Xiangyang?"


    "Yes," said Zhang Xiu


    Li Yan said: "the Kuai family helps Liu Biao to establish himself in Jingzhou. The Kuai family is loyal to Liu Biao. How can they recommend talents to the public. Is it true that the Lord has a certain relationship with the Kuai family? "


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "yes!"


    Li Yan, like Liu Ba before, was also shocked. He did not expect that although Zhang Xiu was only the governor of Nanyang County, even Kuai liang of the Kuai family had accepted him.


    Liu Ba said with a light smile: "Zhengfang, you don''t know much about the Lord. When we go north, I''ll tell you one by one. "


    "Good!"


    Li Yan answered with a smile.


    Although there were bruises on Li Yan''s face, there was no more worry in his eyes. He regained his charm and confidence, and his face was full of expectation for the future.


    Zhang Xiu was short of time, so she immediately asked Li Yan to bring a pen and paper and write a letter to Liu Ba and Li Yan respectively. She handed them to Xu Shu when they arrived in Yuyang county.


    Everything is arranged by Xu Shu.


    He said something else that needed to be noticed and left with Deng Zhan.


    With Liu Ba, Zhang Xiu doesn''t worry about Li Yan.


    After Zhang Xiu left, only Liu Ba and Li Yan were left in the yard.


    Li Yan''s eyes were full of gratitude and said, "brother Zichu, thank you very much. If it were not for your recommendation, I would not be able to get out of the present predicament. "


    He will not be arrogant that Kuai Liang will recommend him, because he does not have any fame.


    Well known is Liu ba.


    Even Liu Biao, a mu in Jingzhou, ordered several times to invite Liu Ba to become an official, but Liu Ba refused one by one. Kuai Liang recommended Liu Ba, and then Liu Ba recommended him to Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Ba said with a light smile: "Zhengfang, you and I don''t have to thank each other."


    Li Yan said: "it''s a matter of one sentence for brother Zichu, but it''s very different for him. This is the difference between heaven and hell. In a moment, I climbed up from the bottom and never got back to the previous situation. "


    With these words, Li Yan got up and bowed himself 90 degrees to thank Liu ba.


    Liu Ba knew Li Yan''s character. He was quite a noble man. So he didn''t refuse. He accepted Li Yan''s courtesy, and then ordered Li Yan to pack up and prepare to go north to Yuyang county.

 Chapter 213

    Zhang Xiu finds that she really can''t compete with Huang Zhong in strength, so she changes the way of fighting just now and swims away to resist Huang Zhong''s attack. As soon as Huang Zhong attacked, he immediately dodged and gave in. Once Huang Zhong gave way, Zhang Xiu attacked immediately.


    There is not much difference in the martial arts between the two sides.


    In Zhang Xiu''s fighting strategy, Huang Zhong for a time, but Zhang Xiu can not.


    After all, no weapons.


    If you fight with your fists, you can''t hurt much unless you hit the key. In the twinkling of an eye, the two sides have been fighting for more than a hundred moves.


    It''s still a draw.


    This scene falls into Huang Xu''s eyes.


    Knowing his father''s martial arts skills, he saw that although Zhang Xiu had lost a lot, he was obviously not inferior. He couldn''t tell the outcome in a short time, and he was not interested in watching the fun. He said: "father, Zhang Taishou is not a bad man. He''s here to visit you. It''s my proposal that my sister compete with Zhang Tai Shou. "


    Huang Zhong immediately withdrew after hearing the speech.


    Zhang Xiu is also a boxer, no longer competing with Huang Zhong.


    It''s hard to win.


    After Zhang Xiu stood still, she arched her hand and said, "I''ve met General Huang in Nanyang."


    Huang Zhong''s eyes were wide open, and a look of surprise appeared on his rough cheek. He doesn''t think that Zhang Xiu is a fake, because Zhang Xiu''s strength is very strong, so it''s impossible to fake her martial arts.


    Huang Zhong recovered quickly and sighed: "I''m not a general in the army. From today on, he is no longer a member of the army. "


    "Why?" Zhang Xiu asked.


    Huang Zhong said: "there is no reason. It''s the order from the top."


    But Zhang Xiu laughed.


    That''s exactly what he meant.


    He wants to recruit Huang Zhong. If Huang Zhong is suddenly lucky in such a short period of time and won the esteem of Han Xuan, Zhang Xiu may not be able to poach Huang Zhong. But Huang Zhong lost his official position. He was light without an official and had two children to take care of. It was easy to recruit him.


    Huang Xu interjected: "Zhang Taishou, you come to visit dad. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu gives Huang Xu a look of appreciation.


    This kid has eyes.


    Zhang Shunsheng came to Changsha and asked Huang for help


    Huang Xu''s eyes are bright.


    In his opinion, this is simply not too good thing.


    Huang Wan is also quite happy.


    She is her daughter''s home, but she didn''t speak at this time, just watching quietly.


    Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows.


    He knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful, but he has been in Changsha, and his reputation is not obvious. Zhang Xiu has been in Nanyang County all the time. Why did he suddenly come to Changsha?


    What''s in it?


    Huang Zhong didn''t make things clear. He had no bottom in his heart, so he solemnly said, "I''m very rash, Mr. Zhang. I''m a vulgar warrior. I don''t have any merit and reputation. How do you know me?"


    Zhang Xiu hears the query in Huang Zhong''s words, which is to suspect that he has ulterior motives.


    "Ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    Huang Zhong asked, "why did Zhang Taishou laugh?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "Han Sheng is modest. With your martial arts, you can''t find your opponent in such a big Jingzhou. Your martial arts are not simple. "


    Huang Zhong said: "I''m flattered by Zhang Taishou. Before you and I met, Zhang Taishou didn''t know my martial arts. You haven''t answered the question just now. "


    He is not alone.


    He has a son and a daughter under his knee. He has to treat his son and take care of his eldest daughter.


    He dare not take risks.


    This is Huang Zhong''s consideration.


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said: "the question raised by Han Sheng is really reasonable. I''m busy in Nanyang County. I have a lot of things to deal with. I don''t have time to understand the situation, let alone your residence. "


    "The reason I know your news is from Kuai Liang''s recommendation in Xiangyang."


    "Kuai Liang inquired about you."


    "Knowing that you are good at martial arts, I specially sent my officer to Changsha."


    Zhang Xiu said: "with Han Sheng''s vision, you should know Kuai Liang, right?"


    "I know!"


    Huang Zhong nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice, "but Kuai Liang used to follow Liu Biao. Even if Kuai Liang is sick and now lives in seclusion, how can he recommend talents for you? Zhang Taishou, your reason doesn''t hold water. "


    Compared with Liu Ba and others, Huang Zhong''s scheming is still weak.


    I didn''t even guess that the Kuai family was obedient.


    In other words, Huang Zhong didn''t think that Zhang Xiu was worth following by the Kuai family, so he didn''t think about it.


    Zhang xiudao: "Han Sheng, you can''t stand up to this point."


    Huang Xu couldn''t help but ask: "Zhang Taishou, maybe Kuai Liang has obeyed you.""Smart!"


    Zhang xiuchao and Huang xutou look of approval.


    Huang Xu was encouraged, excited and full of energy.


    Huang Zhong thinks that Zhang Xiu can''t lie. You can tell such a thing by asking. His heart at the moment, is also weighing, Zhang Xiu thousands of miles to recruit him, really sincere.


    Especially the others were dismissed today.


    Not even firemen.


    If he can''t be on duty in the army, he will completely lose his source of income, which is the dilemma Huang Zhong is facing.


    Zhang Xiu''s solicitation gave him a chance.


    When Huang Zhong hesitated, Huang Xu couldn''t see it any more. He reminded him, "Dad, don''t you praise Zhang as a great hero and admire him? How come you didn''t answer the invitation of the governor Zhang? As you have just said, you have been dismissed. Now is the time to submit to Zhang Taizhou. "


    When Huang Zhong heard his son''s words, he knew what he thought.


    No matter his son or daughter, he is willing to follow Zhang Xiu, because his sons and daughters admire Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Zhong took a deep breath and made a decision.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fist and said, "Huang Zhong, I''d like to urge you."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu is also quite happy.


    To attract Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu''s strength has gone up to a new level. Today, all the princes in the world have their own formation. Except for Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, sun ce of Jiangdong, and even Yuan Shu of Yangzhou have their own generals, and their strength is not weak.


    It is not easy to attract talents.


    After all, talents with masters are scarce.


    Huang can be a great help to Zhang Wenzhong.


    Zhang Xiu gets Huang Zhong''s loyalty and asks Huang Zhong to take a seat. She looks at Huang Xu in front of her eyes and says with a smile, "Han Sheng follows me. I''m duty bound to do your business. I know that you are worried about Huang Xu''s illness. At present, it is impossible to deal with it in Changsha. After arriving in Yuyang County, I arranged for Zhang Zhongjing to come for treatment. Zhang Zhongjing has the opportunity to cure Huang Xu


    Huang Zhong was excited when he heard this.


    It is his dream to cure his son''s illness.


    He has heard the name of Zhang Zhongjing.


    This is a miracle doctor.


    Although Huang Zhong had heard of Zhang Zhongjing''s reputation and visited Zhang Zhongjing''s residence, he did not see anyone, so Huang Zhong went back to live in Changsha County.


    Huang Zhong said, "thank you, Lord."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "it doesn''t have to be like this. It''s just a matter of lifting a hand. Of course, Huang Xu''s condition can''t be verified at the moment. It''s only after Zhang Zhongjing''s diagnosis and treatment that he knows what the specific situation is. "


    "Enough, enough!"


    Huang Zhong''s heart is very happy.


    There is hope for his son''s illness, and he thinks that''s what he has to look forward to.


    Huang Wan''s eyes are slightly red. As her sister who takes care of Huang Xu, she knows that Huang Xu is not easy. Huang Xu can persist until now, it is to bear countless pain.


    Now, there is help.


    Huang Xu was not satisfied and asked, "after my illness has been cured, can I fight to kill the enemy?"

 Chapter 214

    Zhang Xiu heard Huang Xu''s words, but she laughed and comforted: "of course, it''s OK to go to the battlefield. The premise is that you can eat bitterly. Dr. Zhang can''t cure you in a single day. Even if there is a Doctor Zhang medicine, also need you strong, through the painful treatment


    Huang Xu''s thin cheeks were full of smiles and smart eyes, full of excitement and expectation. He said firmly: "I can bear hardships, I can bear hardships the most. As long as I can recover, I can eat as much pain as possible. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu walked up to Huang Xu, patted Huang Xu on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I believe you can make it."


    He is very fond of Huang Xu.


    This boy is skinny, to this step, but also optimistic and positive face, it is not easy. The most important thing is that Huang Xu is just a child. It''s not easy to do this.


    Huang Xu is excited to hear Zhang Xiu''s encouragement.


    He grinned, happy and full of hope for the future.


    Huang Zhong also hoped that his son would recover soon. Looking at his sick son, he said with a smile, "Xuer, if you can recover, your father will lay a solid foundation for you and improve your martial arts."


    "Thank you, Dad!"


    Huang Xu was even more happy when he heard his father''s words.


    From childhood to adulthood, he could only watch his father teach his sister Huang Wanwu, because he could not practice martial arts.


    This is a pity in his heart.


    Huang Zhong taught himself, and he was very happy.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    All of a sudden, loud and rebellious, but also with unbridled laughter, came from outside the yard.


    Huang Zhong, Huang Wan and Huang Xu frowned at the sound. All of the three faces showed disgust and displeasure.


    "Creak!"


    The door was pushed open and a young man strode in.


    Behind the young man, there were six followers with their heads held high.


    Young people about 20 years old, tiger head tiger brain, small eyes, thick lips, at a glance, give people a sense of obscenity. He is nearly 180 cm tall. When he walks, his back is bent, and he looks like a thief.


    This man is Han Hu.


    After he entered the yard, his hands were on his back and his eyes were rolling, as if he were peeking at something. He directly ignored Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, his eyes fell on Huang Wan and looked at him carefully.


    After a long time, Han Hu said, "sister Wan''er, do you know about your father''s dismissal? Ha ha, that''s the end of you refusing me. "


    "If you promise to marry me and be my concubine, your father will not only be restored to his original position immediately, but also be promoted and appointed. At least, it''s OK to be a county captain. "


    "If you refuse me again, it will be impossible for your family to live a stable life."


    "Especially your brother, let alone find a good doctor."


    Han Hu looks proud, said: "you have to think clearly."


    Huang Wan''s face immediately cooled down and said, "Han Hu, you are really shameless."


    "Shameless?"


    Han Hu grinned and solemnly said, "I like the word shameless coming from sister Wan''er''s mouth. Even if you spit in front of me, it''s fragrant. "


    Huang Wan trembled slightly with anger.


    Han Hu is such a rascal.


    When Huang Zhong saw Han Hu molesting his daughter, his rough cheek suddenly became gloomy, his eyebrows were sharp, and he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Han, you are not welcome in the Huang family. Please leave at once."


    Han Hu held his head high and said: "leave? That''s impossible. I''m here today to marry my sister Wan''er. If I don''t get there, I won''t give up. Before that, I was too gentle to you. I respected you everywhere, but you didn''t drink a toast


    Huang Zhong said, "if you do this again, I will report to the official."


    Han Hu laughed again and said, "Huang Zhong, what did you say just now?"


    Huang Zhong''s eyes narrowed, and he suddenly thought that Han Hu was Han Xuan''s own nephew and the only nephew. In addition, although Han Xuan had many wives and concubines, he had no son under his knees. Han Xuan has several daughters, but they have no sons, so Han Hu is more important.


    It''s no use suing officials.


    Huang Zhong is silent and doesn''t want to talk to Han Hu any more.


    Han Hu said with a smile: "why, don''t you plan to report to the government? Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong, you are also a veteran in the army. At least you used to be a general. How can you not even think of that? "


    "If you want to report to an official, I will accompany you to the end. It depends on whether the official will deal with you or me."


    "Of course, you can do it."


    "You Huang Zhong''s martial arts have always been among the best in the army. There is no one who can compete with you."


    "If you look at me and the six guys under my command, it''s not enough for you to fight with one hand. You can do it now, but you have to think about it. If you hit me, you can''t stay in Linxiang county. "


    Han Hu said wildly: "it''s useless for you to report to an official, and you dare not beat me. What else can you do? Huang Zhong, if I were you, I would have agreed to marry my daughter. As long as you agree, it''s just around the corner. ""No way!"


    Huang Zhong big sleeve a brush, categorically refused.


    He can''t give his daughter to a beast like Han Hu.


    Huang Zhong knows a lot about Han Hu. He is a man with extremely bad life. Han Hu relies on Han Xuan to commit crimes and live in the hometown of fish and meat. His daughter married Han Hu. That''s a sheep in a tiger''s mouth.


    Han Hu''s eyes were cold and said coldly, "good, good. I know you don''t agree. Today, I''m going to take Huang Wan. What can you do for me? My people are not afraid of being beaten by you. If you hurt me, you can say something. "


    He has a look of wisdom.


    As Han Xuan''s only nephew, even now he is more than 40 years old and has no son. Maybe he will inherit Han Xuan''s family business one hundred years later.


    Therefore, Han Hu in Linxiang county is indisputable. He found many officials in Changsha County. Many officials had to obey Han Hu''s arrangement and did not dare to disobey Han Hu''s orders.


    "Give it to me!"


    Han Hu big sleeve a brush, directly under the order.


    Huang Zhong turned to look at Huang Wan and said, "Wan''er, take Xu''er back to her room."


    He stepped in front of Huang Wan, and his eyes became sharper than ever. Even if he offends Han Hu, he can''t let Han Hu bully his daughter.


    Huang Wan is useless, because she sees Zhang Xiu''s action.


    "Hansheng, I''ll take care of this."


    Zhang Xiu step out, look indifferent, he cast to Huang Zhong assured eyes.


    Huang Zhong was worried and said, "Han Hu is the only nephew of Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha. Moreover, Han Xuan has no son under his knees and is very fond of Han Hu. "


    Zhang Xiu flatly said: "believe me!"


    Huang Zhong heard the speech and nodded.


    He is still standing beside Zhang Xiu. Once something happens, he can help Zhang Xiu immediately to avoid her falling into crisis.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu stood up, Han Hu''s eyes were even colder. A pair of narrow and narrow eyes almost narrowed up, flashing fierce light, said in a cold voice: "boy, who are you?"


    Zhang Xiu lightly said: "it doesn''t matter who I am. The important thing is that as long as I''m here, you can''t take Huang Wan."


    "Rampant!"


    Han Hu yelled.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you are rampant, you just have a try. As long as I''m here, none of these guys under your command can rush through. Even if you want to break through, I''ll fight it. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Han Hu laughed again, his face full of disbelief, looked at the boy beside him, and said: "well, well, today someone said that they want to clean me up, even I can''t miss it. Do you believe it? "


    "I don''t believe it!"


    One answer at a time.


    These guys who follow Han Hu are all the thugs he keeps. They are used to the tyranny of Han Hu, and they have seen people who are afraid of Han Hu.


    To this day, they have not seen, who dares to deal with Han Hu.


    So, these people don''t believe it.


    Once hit Han Hu, it is tantamount to breaking the sky, is to be put into prison.

 Chapter 215

    Han Hu straightened his waist, no longer bent back, swaggered up to Zhang Xiu, put his face close to him, and said with a smile: "boy, you have the courage to hit me?"


    Han Hu determined that Zhang Xiu did not dare to beat him.


    In Linxiang County, who doesn''t know that Han Hu is Han Xuan''s only nephew.


    If you hit him, you''ll get burned.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t have any scruples at all. He stroked his sleeve and asked with a smile, "Han Hu, do you really fight?"


    "What a fight


    Han Hu answered with a voice.


    Zhang Xiu swung her hand, but when she reached Han Hu, she suddenly stopped. With a playful look on his face, he asked again, "Han Hu, do you really want me to hit you?"


    Han Hu is even more proud.


    He thought that Zhang Xiu was afraid. He took a proud look at Huang Wan, then threw a provocative look at Zhang Xiu, and said: "fight, you must fight! What''s more, do you dare to fight hard? "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''ve really beaten you."


    "Fight!"


    Han Hu talks again.


    At this time, Huang Wan was worried. She looked at Huang Zhong and asked, "Dad, what can I do?"


    Huang Zhongdao: "hand it over to the Lord."


    He had confidence in Zhang Xiu. A wise man who defeated Huang Jin, killed Xiongnu and defeated Cao Jun would be a prefect if he didn''t have this skill.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu stepped back.


    Zhang Xiu''s retreat, Han Hu''s heart is more determined, determined that Zhang Xiu did not dare to move, contemptuous way: "boy, are you afraid to fight? I''ll tell you, you''ve got a big deal today. You deserve to be in trouble with me. Even if you don''t fight, you''re finished. If you hit me, you''ll end up worse. "


    Han Hu is very proud.


    In his opinion, Zhang Xiu is in trouble whether to fight or not, which is his most proud. Just when Han Hu''s voice just fell, Zhang Xiu''s hand suddenly made a force and swung the palm to fan out.


    "Pa!"


    A loud slap reverberated in the yard.


    "Ah


    With a scream, Han Hu fell to the ground.


    Han Hu fell on the ground, dizzy brain, mouth has been out of a trace of blood. Half of the cheek, immediately red and swollen up, there are bright red five finger print emerged.


    One by one, the boys were all flustered and rushed to Han Hu quickly. They were all flustered.


    "Boy, you want to die!"


    One of them, with an excited look in his eyes, swung his fist and beat Zhang Xiu first.


    In his opinion, this is his chance.


    Everyone goes to take care of Han Hu. As long as he controls Zhang Xiu first, Han Hu will surely reward him. Say time late, then fast, the small Si''s fist, twinkling of an eye arrived in front of Zhang Xiu''s body.


    Zhang Xiu sneered, did not hide, palm spread out, quickly out. Hold your fist before you get close. Closely following, Zhang Xiu withdraws to withdraw one step, this gently one drags, the small Si''s center of gravity unbalance, staggers forward.


    Zhang Xiu raised her foot and kicked it out.


    "Pa!"


    The sole of his foot hits the boy''s chest. Under the impact of peiran''s strength, the boy''s body rises to the ground. Then he falls down beside Han Hu and shows his teeth in pain.


    At this time, Han Hu stood up, covered his hot face, and asked, "boy, how dare you hit me?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "you are cheap. What can I do if you want me to beat you? It''s the first time in my life that I''ve ever seen such a cheap person as you. Alas, there are all kinds of people in the world. "


    "Puchi!"


    Clear laughter, all of a sudden.


    However, Huang Wan laughed at Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Huang Wan chuckles, which stimulates Han Hu. He clenched his fist, staring at Zhang Xiu, said: "boy, you are completely finished. Now you kneel down and ask me for mercy. I can promise you that you will not die. Otherwise, you will die today. "


    He wants to humiliate Zhang Xiu.


    When the humiliation is enough, consider whether to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao said: "if you are Han Hu, it''s like farting and stinking. I''ll see how I die. "


    "Go ahead, kill him for me."


    Han Hu see Zhang Xiu strong, directly under the order.


    The boy beside him rushed forward and went straight to Zhang Xiu. At this moment, Zhang Xiu moved. He rushed to the crowd and hit his fist quickly.


    Zhang Xiu''s fist is as fast as lightning, and his strength is even stronger than before. Once he hits a person, a little guy falls to the ground.


    Just listen to the sound of banging. After a while, all the boys fell to the ground and wailed.


    Zhang Xiu patted the palm of her hand with a relaxed look. Her eyes fell on Han Hu. She said: "Han Hu, your people have been solved. It''s your turn."


    "You, you..."


    Han Hu was scared to stammer.As Han Xuan''s only nephew, Han Hu is spoiled too much, leading to ignorance and incompetence, and his martial arts is also a three legged Kung Fu. In front of Zhang Xiu, he had no confidence at all. He turned around and began to run out.


    Zhang Xiu accelerates with an arrow step. In an instant, she reaches behind Han Hu. She reaches out and grabs Han Hu''s clothes. She gently pulls back. In an instant, Han Hu falls to the ground.


    Han Hu showed fierce light in his eyes and gritted his teeth: "boy, my uncle is Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha. If you dare to kill me, you will not be able to eat it. "


    "To kill you?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "your dog''s life is not worth killing."


    "Hoo


    Han Hu sighed.


    It''s just relaxing.


    Anyway, the other party didn''t dare to kill him.


    Zhang Xiu stood in front of Han Hu and said, "the death penalty can be avoided, but the living one can''t escape. If you want to leave, that''s OK. Call a boy, slap you fifty times, and you can leave. "


    "No!"


    Han Hu refused directly.


    Zhang Xiu see Han Hu does not cooperate, without saying a word, directly is a kick out. He just kicked his foot on Han Hu''s buttock. Under the impact of powerful force, Han Hu felt that his buttock was hit hard. His body flew up immediately and then fell to the ground again.


    Han Hu fell all over the body pain, as if the body almost broke up.


    Zhang Xiu walked up to Han Hu again and asked, "now, do you slap him in the face?"


    "I will, I will!"


    Han Hu''s hatred for Zhang Xiu is incomparable, but he answers in a hurry. He is afraid of being beaten by Zhang Xiu. If he doesn''t cooperate, he will be beaten again.


    Han Hu shouts a boy and orders him to slap in the face.


    But Xiao Si is Han Hu''s follower. He slaps Han Hu in the face.


    Not light, not heavy, like tickling.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she slapped him in the face and slapped him down, which made him dizzy. Zhang Xiu cold face, remind a way: "hit Han Hu''s ear light, is you get hit.". The slap just now is not counting. I''m patient enough, you can always tap. Because every time you fail, you get beaten. "


    The boy''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t dare to let him fight Han Hu from the bottom of his heart.


    But if he didn''t fight Han Hu, he couldn''t pass the test, and he had to be beaten himself. Looking at Han Hu with red and swollen cheeks, he said: "if you don''t beat me, I can''t pass all the time."


    "Fight!"


    Han Hu gritted his teeth.


    He was able to see that Zhang Xiu did it on purpose, just to upset him.


    But he can''t help it.


    The boy swung his hand and slapped Han Hu on the cheek. In an instant, Han Hu showed his teeth in pain. He jumped to scold the boy, but after a lot of scolding, he had to continue to let the boy beat him.


    This scene falls on Huang Zhong, Huang Wan and others.


    Huang Xu is to see with relish.


    He is disgusted with Han Hu.


    If he had good health and martial arts, Han Hu would have dealt with him long ago when he came to harass Huang Wan. It''s a pity that he can''t do anything because of his illness.


    Huang Wan''s eyes were full of splendor.


    She felt happy, too.


    Today''s beating made her extremely happy and finally let out her evil spirit. In the face of Han Hu''s harassment, she couldn''t fight, and she couldn''t refuse.


    Huang Zhong went to Zhang Xiu''s side and said in a low voice: "Lord, Han Hu has always been the one who will repay you. If you beat him now and don''t deal with him, I''m afraid there will be endless trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "I will handle, and will completely solve our crisis."


    Huang Zhong said nothing more.


    Zhang Xiu continued to look at the beaten Han Hu.


    Fifty slaps in the face, and each slapped, which made Han Hu dead and alive. After fifty slaps, Han Hu''s face turned into a pig''s head, swollen and full of cheek.


    The eyes, which were already narrow and squinting, are now narrowed by the swelling skin. Thick big lips, but also full up.


    Han Hu''s head was a little dizzy, and he was completely knocked unconscious.


    Even the palm of his hand was numb and painful. After all, hand hit in Han Hu''s face, but also reaction in his palm, is also some pain.

 Chapter 216

    Han Hu is completely tortured by Zhang Xiu, especially the others and his subordinates. None of them is Zhang Xiu''s opponent. At present, in front of Zhang Xiu, it can only be self humiliation.


    The best way is to bear humiliation first, and then mobilize soldiers after leaving.


    This is the best strategy.


    Han Hu stemmed his neck and endured the pain caused by the swelling of his head. He carefully asked, "can I go?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "go away!"


    "Yes, yes, get out of here!"


    Han Hu is overjoyed. With a wave, he rushes out of the yard with his little fellow.


    Seeing Han Hu leaving in a hurry, Huang Zhong thought a little and said, "my Lord, it''s a trick to play hard to get to let Han Hu leave. Do you want to use Han Hu to lead out the people behind him?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu explained: "I beat Han Hu. If I leave now, the other party will not give up. Even Han Hu mobilize the power of the government, this time north, there will be no peace. It is better to solve the problem thoroughly in Linxiang county. To let Han Hu go back is to let the people behind him come out. "


    Huang Zhong worried: "after all, this is Changsha County, Han Xuan''s territory."


    "There''s nothing to worry about."


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said: "just Han Xuan, I didn''t move my courage. After all, I didn''t kill Han Hu. Han Xuan has such a nephew under his knee. If he kills Han Hu, it''s easy for him to jump out of the wall. But now Han Hu is good, but it''s impossible. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong saluted with his fist.


    Huang Wan stood aside and saw Zhang Xiu''s self-confident manner. When he understated her, he solved her family''s biggest worry and admired her even more.


    Huang Xu worships Zhang Xiu.


    For Huang Xu, Han Hu harasses his sister. He wants to kill Han Hu. He can''t solve it, but Zhang Xiu solves it for him. He is grateful to Zhang Xiu in his heart, especially Zhang Xiu is the person he worships.


    Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong and others are waiting in the yard for the time being.


    Han Hu led people straight to the county government.


    At the moment, Han Hu''s head is dizzy, and his swollen cheek is extremely bloated, so he can''t see the ferocious look. He only sees the swollen cheek, which is quite terrible.


    Han Hu gnashed his teeth, some Bolt said: "that boy, have you ever seen it?"


    "No!"


    One by one, all of them answered with one voice.


    One of them said, "young master, I have a discovery. Huang Wan looked at the boy as if he were a lover. I''m afraid there is also some improper relationship between Huang Wan and that boy. "


    "Damn it, damn it!"


    Han Hu''s anger rose when he heard the boy''s words, and his intention to kill was even stronger. He said, "I must kill him. If I don''t kill him, I will never stop."


    The boy who beat Han Hu immediately agreed.


    Han Hu stares at him. In a flash, he is so scared that his legs soften. He kneels on the ground with a plop and asks for mercy: "young man, I''m wrong. But if the villain doesn''t do it, he can''t pass the test at all. That kid, he won''t let us go. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Han Hu kicked out and kicked the boy to the ground.


    Although he is a dandy, he knows that the previous situation is unavoidable. So after kicking, Han Hu didn''t do it any more. He went straight to the county government of Linxiang county.


    They soon arrived at the county government.


    The boy came forward, but he was stopped by the porter of the county government. The porter put his hands on his waist and said with high spirit: "who are you looking for?"


    Han Hu was already angry. As soon as he heard the porter''s words, he became angry. He kicked the porter and yelled, "dog, I haven''t seen Lao Tzu all day. I don''t know who Lao Tzu is? Lead the way. I want to see Fang Yu. "


    Linxiang county magistrate, named Fang Yu.


    Fang Yu was able to be an official mainly because of his money and management. At the beginning of his management, Han Hu also made great efforts. Coupled with Han Hu''s identity, Han Hu was equal to the emperor in the county government.


    His words, Fang Yu dare not violate.


    When the porter heard Han Hu''s voice, he realized it. He quickly flattered and laughed, and bowed himself to lead Han Hu into the room.


    In the study.


    Fang Yu is enjoying a piece of jade that has just been seized.


    This piece of jade is crystal clear and white, with very good texture and very comfortable to touch.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock at the door.


    "Knock on the door, get out of here!"


    Han Hu reaches out his hand and pushes open the doorman who knocks. He kicked out, knocked open the door and went straight in. He entered the moment, Fang Yu also looked to the door.


    Han Hu''s head is completely swollen.


    It''s like a pig''s head.


    For a moment, Fang Yu didn''t recognize it. He yelled: "bastard, who are you, dare to break into the county government?"Han Hu cold face way: "Fang Yu, even this childe all don''t know?"


    Fang Yu was stunned.


    It''s a familiar voice.


    All of a sudden, Fang Yu came back and thought that it was Han Hu. He quickly put down the beautiful jade in his hand and said with a smile, "it''s Mr. Han who came to the county government. Oh, it''s really brilliant. Eh, your head is red and swollen. What''s the matter? "


    Han Hu was not angry and said, "what else can I do? I''ve been beaten!"


    Fang Yu said, "who dares to beat you?"


    You know, Han Hu is a tyrant in Linxiang county. When people see that people are scattered, flowers are withered, and dogs run, they are generous. No one dares to provoke Han Hu.


    Fang Yu is curious, who ate leopard gall, dare to beat Han Hu.


    Han Hu was beaten like this.


    Han Hu big sleeve a brush, said: "don''t talk nonsense, mobilize County Yamen all yamen, with me to revenge.". Lao Tzu doesn''t believe it. That boy has some martial arts skills and dares to be rampant. "


    Fang Yu said: "young master, who beat you?"


    Although Fang Yu has to listen to Han Hu, he wants to know the situation. In case there is an abyss and a sea of fire in front of him, he can''t fold himself in. He always has to consider his own safety.


    Han Hu snorted and said, "I don''t know the name of the man who beat me. However, he is a relative of Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong, do you know that? "


    "Know, know!"


    Fang Yu answered one after another.


    Fang Yu is clear about Han Hu''s pursuit of Huang Wan and knows Huang Zhong. He also knew that Han Hu had found someone to wipe out Huang Zhong''s position as an officer.


    "Not yet?"


    Han Hu is a little angry.


    "Go, go, go now!"


    Fang Yu answered directly.


    Determined that the other party is not a big man, Fang Yu also rest assured. He followed Han Hu out of the study quickly and mobilized the Yamen officers of the county government.


    Fang Yu transferred more than 30 yamen officers.


    One by one, the Yamen''s clothes were not neat, and their robes were askew. Many of them looked like ruffians.


    It''s the best of the best.


    Fang Yu himself is a corrupt official. He raised a group of Yamen servants who blackmail the people and extract their fat.


    They went to Huang Zhong''s house.


    As Fang Yu walked along, he said: "Mr. Han, it is reasonable to say that Huang Zhong has been dismissed. He was desperate, and his youngest son needed money again. You should easily get Huang Wan. "


    "Nonsense!"


    Han Hu said, "I don''t know what you know. It''s because it can''t be solved that we can do it. I don''t know. Today, a boy who doesn''t know the greatness of heaven and earth suddenly appeared. Fang Yu, after you catch that boy, give it to me. He humiliated me like this before. This time, I want to make him live instead of die. "


    "That''s for sure!"


    Fang Yu said with a smile: "even if Mr. Han doesn''t say it, I will arrange it."


    After a pause, Fang Yu continued: "in addition to that, the next officer will put Huang Zhong on a charge and put Huang Zhong in jail. As long as Huang Zhong goes to prison, the remaining Huang Wan and Huang Xu will be easy to deal with. At that time, I''ll use Huang Zhong to intimidate Huang Wan a little. Won''t that be your good thing? "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    In Han Hu''s eyes, there is a bright light.


    This is an opportunity.


    When he pursued Huang Wan before, he wanted to please Huang Wan, but he didn''t expect to put Huang Zhong in prison, or plant Huang Zhong and control him.


    Coercing Huang Wan is more direct.


    The more Han Hu thought about it, the more he felt happy and praised: "Fang Yu, you are a good old man. When I get Huang Wan, I''ll say something nice for you in front of my uncle. "


    "Thank you, young master!"


    Fang Yu a listen to, the face surface a smile, in the heart happy Zizi. Although he is unlikely to be promoted in his current official position, it is also excellent to get Han Xuan''s respect.

 Chapter 217

    Han Hu and Fang Yu are chatting and on their way. After a short time, they arrived at the gate of Huang Zhong''s house. Fang Yu is very domineering, holding his head high, big sleeve a whisk, ordered: "up, to the official hit open the door, rushed in!"


    The Yamen officer got the order and rushed in immediately.


    A group of people, a swarm of people.


    Han Hu and Fang Yu followed, followed into the yard.


    Zhang Xiu saw a lot of officers and soldiers coming, nodded to Huang Wan, and saw Huang Wan pushing Huang Xu into the room. After all, there are too many people. If Huang Xu is hurt, it will be bad.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong are both standing at the door of the house.


    They were calm.


    There was no sign of tension.


    Both Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong are highly skilled in martial arts. There are only a few dozen officers and soldiers, but they are not rivals.


    Fang Yu stood in the yard, and saw the people under his command surround Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu. Fang Yu is very observant. He needs Han Hu to speak for him, so he looks at Han Hu and signals him to speak.


    Han Hu held up his swollen head and said: "boy, do you see these people? These are all officers and soldiers of Linxiang county. The people around me are Fang Yu, the magistrate of Linxiang county. Now you kneel down and kowtow to me 50 times. No, kowtow to me 100 times. I''ll think about whether to kill you or not. "


    Fang Yu echoed: "boy, I''m the magistrate of Linxiang county. Give me your name!"


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s just nobody."


    Han Hu said: "Lao Fang, I asked him, but he didn''t say anything. Don''t ask. It depends on how he answers what I just said. Well, if he kneels down and kowtows for mercy, I can consider not killing him. "


    Han Hu deliberately so, is to toss Zhang Xiu, revenge the previous big revenge.


    But Fang Yu frowned.


    Somehow, he had a bad feeling in his heart. Although Fang Yu is a corrupt official, he is extremely cautious in doing things. He always bullies those who are weaker than him and those who are stronger than him.


    However, Fang Yu thinks that Huang Zhong is an ordinary person. People who can get on with Huang Zhong can''t be powerful people.


    Otherwise, Huang Zhong would not be in the doldrums.


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said: "Han Hu, you were slapped 50 times just now. Are you stupid in the brain, or are you stuck in the door when you go out. If your brain is not working well, put your head together, and I''ll give you another ten or so slaps in the face to wake you up. "


    "Boy, you want to die."


    Han Hu''s face suddenly cooled down.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you have said similar words before. It''s a pity that you''ve been beaten to a pig''s head and you don''t even have a clear head. It''s no use saying that now. "


    Han Hu said: "boy, do you really not think about it?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if I were you, I wouldn''t chirp. As soon as you enter the yard, you will be ordered to do it. I don''t talk about things that I can handle. Simple, direct, is the most effective way


    Han Hu laughs, but when he smiles, his swollen cheek pulls, making the whole face very painful. He endured the burning pain on his face and said, "boy, I will help you!"


    "Go ahead, take Huang Zhong and that boy, life or death."


    Han Hu gave the order.


    "Kill


    One by one, all the Yamen officers pulled out their swords and went to kill Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Hansheng, who will defeat more soldiers?"


    "Good!"


    Huang Zhong is also heroic.


    Two people, one left and one right, kill directly. No matter Huang Zhong or Zhang Xiu, they are all unarmed. Rao is so. They fight into the crowd, just as tigers fight into the sheep to defeat the Yamen soldiers.


    Bursts of screams, constantly sounded.


    Where Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong passed, all the Yamen servants were overturned on the ground.


    This scene fell into Huang Wan''s eyes in the room. She stood by the window and saw the fighting in the yard. She was very excited. She said, "good fight, good fight. Oh, my father slowed down. More people were defeated by Zhang Taishou Ah, my father was so brave just now that he knocked over two people with one blow... "


    Huang Xu listens in the ear, in the heart is like tickling, wants to see very much. But his body is weak, and he can''t stand steadily at all. When he goes out, he can only sit in a wheelchair and can''t see.


    In his heart, he wanted to see it himself.


    Unfortunately, I can''t see it.


    Huang Xu can only use Huang Wan''s description to imagine the scene of Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu fighting. He is lying on the bed now, and his hands are clenched into fists. Although the strength of his fists is weak, he has secretly made up his mind to go to the battlefield in the future.


    In the yard, there was a constant scream.


    In a short period of time, more than half of the people were injured.


    Only more than a dozen people remained, and they also resisted stubbornly.


    Everybody''s scared.


    There are more than 30 of them, who surround Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu, but they are like three-year-old children in front of Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu.Fang Yu saw such a scene, cold face, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Huang Zhong, you attacked the soldiers of the government. Are you tired of living? "


    He is threatening Huang Zhong.


    However, Huang Zhong''s action is not stop, a punch, hit in a yamen''s heart. With this blow, the Yamen officer fainted directly.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong rushes out with an arrow. He takes Fang Yu straight away.


    Catch the king first.


    He wants to take Fang Yu first.


    Fang Yu sees Huang Zhong''s bravery in his eyes. Seeing Huang Zhong rush over, Fang Yu shivers and turns around to run out. But his speed, after all, was a step slower. As soon as he ran out, there was a roar of boxing behind him.


    "Bang!"


    The fist hit Fang Yu''s shoulder.


    "Ah


    The scream came from Fang Yu''s mouth.


    Under the impact of fist strength, he was unstable and fell to the ground with a stagger. The pain on his shoulder made him show his teeth and feel very uncomfortable.


    "Gudong!"


    Han Hu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    At the moment, Han Hu''s face is also showing a look of panic, dare not stay, turn around and go out, want to escape. But at the moment when Han Hu turns around and runs out, Zhang Xiu catches up.


    Zhang Xiu kills Han Hu''s back, palms out, grabs Han Hu''s back clothes and tugs hard.


    "Plop!"


    Han Hu plops and falls to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu takes Han Hu. Seeing that Huang Zhong also controls Fang Yu, she orders: "Fang Yu and Han Hu have been taken. Everyone, kneel down for me. "


    When the Yamen servants heard the speech, they all looked alarmed.


    Fang Yu is the magistrate of the county government.


    This is their day.


    Han Hu is Han Xuan''s nephew, which is even more important.


    Both of them were taken down. One by one, the Yamen servants did not dare to fight any more. They all knelt down on the ground with a look of fear on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu takes Han Hu and kicks him up. She kicks Han Hu to the ground and says faintly, "Han Hu, now you are taken down by me again. Even if it''s a yamen servant of more than 30 people, it''s not so good. What is a mere magistrate if Changsha''s prefect Han Xuan doesn''t show up? You said, "what shall I do with you now?"


    Han Hu has a bitter expression.


    But his heart was open. When he heard what Zhang Xiu had just said, Han Xuan didn''t show up. What is the magistrate? If Han Xuan is invited out, things will be easier.


    He had an idea in his heart.


    Now he pretends to be a counsellor again, and when he gets rid of the present predicament, he goes back to move the rescue soldiers.


    Han Hu begged for mercy and said, "young master, I''m wrong. You don''t care about the villains. Please forgive me. Don''t worry. I swear to heaven that I won''t take revenge again. Let me go, will you? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "what do you say?"


    Han Hu said with a smile, "well, how about playing lightly?"


    Although Han Hu''s brain is not very smart, he also knows that the people in front of him can''t kill him.


    After all, he is Han Xuan''s nephew.


    But I''m sure I''ll be beaten.

 Chapter 218

    Han Hu was beaten by Zhang Xiu before, and his head became a pig''s head. Even if he doesn''t want to be beaten, he can''t choose the current situation, so Han Hu can only hope that Zhang Xiu can beat him a little lighter.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "hit you? I''m afraid that if I dirty my hands, the person who beat you or the one you brought with me. "


    His eyes swept away.


    This is looking for Han Hu''s boy.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyesight is excellent. After a while, she finds the boy who slapped Han Hu in the face. He put on a smile and waved, "come on, come on, cut it."


    When he heard the words, his face broke down and looked sad.


    Previously, it was Zhang Xiu who hit him.


    Now it''s him again.


    He''s too unlucky.


    The young man is timid and unwilling to come forward. But he can see that Zhang Xiu''s face is cold and doesn''t dare to delay. After rubbing, he comes to Zhang Xiu and asks for mercy: "young master, please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your name?"


    The boy said, "my name is Xu Ping!"


    Zhang xiudao: "Xu Ping, right? You know the importance of fighting Han Hu. Now, according to the weight, kick Han Hu''s ass. Fifty, one is not many, one is not many. "


    Xu Ping''s cheek twitched slightly.


    What kind of means is this!


    Let him kick Han Hu and wait for him to settle the accounts after autumn. Isn''t that tantamount to seeking death?


    Zhang Xiu gently smile, said: "you can not kick Han Hu, of course, the results, I will kick you, let you feel some."


    "No, no!"


    Xu Ping quickly shakes his head. He looks at Han Hu and asks him.


    Han Hu''s cheeks twitched and sighed. He had been beaten before, and had already suffered. Now he couldn''t escape. He gritted his teeth and said, "come on!"


    Xu Ping didn''t dare to delay, so he had to give up.


    Kick out, Han Hu buttocks get a foot, directly fell to the ground.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Han Hu covers his buttocks in pain.


    When he scolded, Xu Ping''s face suddenly changed into a look of mourning. He was timid and said with a straight face: "young master, I can''t help it!"


    "You, you..."


    Han Hu said twice and finally stopped talking.


    He also knows that Xu Ping is in a dilemma.


    Han Hu''s heart, is incomparable resentment Zhang Xiu. He has made up his mind that after going through the present pain, he must go back to find his uncle Han Xuan and let him come out in person.


    The sound of crashing is constantly ringing.


    Han Hu constantly fell to the ground, and then stood up, puckered his ass, let Xu Ping kick.


    Fifty feet later, Han Hu limped, covering his ass, very uncomfortable. Ass is the place with the most meat. It''s no big problem to be kicked a few feet, but it''s not three or five feet, it''s fifty feet.


    Fifty feet down, Han Hu feel buttock petal to crack.


    What a pain!


    Seeing Han Hu''s expression, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Han Hu, your punishment is over. Now it''s time for the county magistrate Fang Yu. Come on, come on. Now I''ll give you a chance to give Fang Yu 50 slaps. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t do it in person.


    He is tossing Fang Yu and Han Hu, let both sides hate him.


    Then, move out Han Xuan.


    Only when Han Xuan comes out, Zhang Xiu shows her identity again, can Han Hu''s crisis be solved once and for all. Otherwise, after he left Linxiang County, some officers and soldiers chased him in the rear, and he would not go smoothly.


    Fang Yu a listen, swallow a saliva.


    Fifty slaps!


    Han Hu is a lesson from the past.


    His legs softened and he knelt down on the ground with a plop, pleading for mercy: "young master, I''m wrong, I know I''m wrong. You''d better give me a break. "


    Zhang Xiu looks at Han Hu quietly.


    He said nothing.


    No matter how Fang Yu begged for mercy, Zhang Xiu could not have spared Fang Yu.


    Han Hu went straight to Fang Yu, swung his hand, and took a big slap.


    "Pa!"


    There was a loud slap in the face.


    Fang Yu was slapped in the face and fell to the ground, showing his teeth in pain. His head was a little dizzy, and he stood up wobbly. As soon as he got to his feet, another slap fell on his face.


    "Pa!"


    Fang yingyu fell.


    He fell to the ground, his cheeks were red and swollen, left two five finger marks on his face, and a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.


    It hurts!


    The pain is burning.


    Fang Yu has no choice but to stand up again and look at Han Hu with deep resentment. Then he clenches his teeth and bears one slap after another.


    Fifty slaps is not easy.


    After fifty slaps, Fang Yu''s eyes were full of blood, his cheeks were red and swollen, and his cheeks were as red as a monkey''s buttocks.He''s about to be knocked out.


    Fang Yu didn''t speak. He didn''t speak.


    Han Hu looks at Zhang Xiu and tightens her crisp palm, hoping to ask: "can we go?"


    "Go away!"


    Zhang Xiu waved again.


    Han Hu, for instance, was pardoned and rushed out of the yard. Fang Yu returned to his senses and left immediately after him. The rest of the Yamen officers left, afraid to stay for fear of being beaten.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and said with a smile, "Han Sheng, the second step plan has been completed. The next person to come is Han Xuan. As a subordinate of Han Xuan, have you considered how to face him? "


    Huang Zhong raised his head and said, "what''s the point? It was Han Xuanxian who removed the last general. How can I blame him? I have nothing to do with him. "


    Huang Zhong is willing to follow Zhang Xiu. He is lucky to be able to work with Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu not only protects her short comings, but also makes plans before moving. She is not an easy person to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu said, "then wait."


    They are still sitting in the yard, waiting for Han Xuan''s arrival.


    After Han Hu and Fang Yu leave.


    On their way back, both of them were carrying a huge pig''s head. Their appearance was very strange. People along the way to see, appreciate some left, dare not too much to provoke Han Hu and others.


    Fang Yu inquired: "young master, what shall we do next?"


    "What to do?"


    Han Hu bit his teeth and said: "Huang Zhong and that boy are deceiving people too much. This time, he must die without a burial place. Let''s go to the prefect''s mansion and ask my uncle to mobilize the army and take down the boy. "


    "Good!"


    A happy look appeared on Fang Yu''s face.


    He also thinks that with a big swollen head, it''s time for them to go to the prefect''s residence to complain.


    Fang Yu and Han Hu marched together and soon arrived outside the prefecture. Han Xuan''s palace is decorated with luxury, and the courtyard is also huge. The front yard of this prefecture is where Han Xuan works and deals with government affairs, while the back yard is where Han Xuan lives.


    After Han Hu arrived, his swollen face changed greatly and was not found by the porter. After Han Hu said something, the porter was surprised and knew that something big was going to happen.


    If Han Hu is injured, there will be huge waves.


    The porter didn''t dare to stop him and let Han Hu and Fang Yu go to the back yard. After a while, they arrived outside Han Xuan''s study.


    Han Xuan is a scholar.


    In the study.


    Han Xuan is reading a book.


    When Han Hu and Fang Yu arrive and knock on the door, Han Xuan puts down his books and lets Han Hu and Fang Yu enter the study.


    "Plop!"


    Han Hu pushed the golden mountain and fell on his knees.


    Fang Yu also knelt down.


    "Uncle, you are in charge of your nephew!"


    Han Hu knelt on the ground and kept crying. At the moment, he was in tears. After a lot of crying, he said, "uncle, my nephew has been beaten into a pig''s head and his eyes are not very clear. Please ask my uncle to avenge my nephew."


    Han Xuan did not answer immediately.


    He knew the nature of his own nephew.


    Han Xuan looked at Fang Yu kneeling on one side with sharp eyes and asked, "who are you?" After all, Fang Yu''s brain was dazed and his face changed. Even if Fang Yu stood in front of Han Xuan, Han Xuan didn''t recognize him.


    Fang Yu said: "Linxiang county magistrate Fang Yu, I''d like to meet you."


    Han Xuan after hearing, stare big eyes, the Mou son is also to pass a silk of surprise.


    Is this Fang Yu?


    Fang Yu, whom he knew, was capable, and even a rather wise man. But now Fang Yu, a pair of painful appearance, let Han Xuan frown.


    Who dares to deal with Fang Yu?


    This is a senior official of Changsha County.


    Han Xuanshen took a deep breath, suppressed the surprise in his heart, and asked, "come on, what''s the matter? Well, why is hu''er and your Fang Yu seriously injured? "

 Chapter 219

    Fang Yu immediately said, "my Lord, there are two craftsmen in Linxiang county. One is Huang Zhong, the other is anonymous."


    "Huang Zhong?"


    Han Xuan frowned.


    He knows Huang Zhong. After all, Huang Zhong has excellent martial arts skills and is the pillar of the army. However, Han Xuan didn''t pay much attention to Huang Zhong. He didn''t know how to be a vulgar warrior.


    Fang Yu nodded and said, "young master Han Hu took people to Huang Zhong''s house to ask for marriage, but he was beaten by Huang Zhong. After Han Hu was beaten, he was angry, but he hoped that he would get justice for him. The lower official took people to question, but Huang Zhong and the anonymous beat them up. My Lord, Huang Zhong and that boy are just wild and rebellious. They totally ignore the law. Please be my Lord


    Han Hu then said: "uncle, my nephew has been slapped more than 50 times. You see, my nephew''s head is swollen. Nephew''s ass is also a crime. My nephew really adores Huang Zhong''s daughter, but I didn''t expect that Huang Zhong was so violent that I asked my uncle to make the decision for him and give him justice. "


    Han Xuan carefully a lot of Han Hu and Fang Yu, see two people are buccal swelling, red, that puffy skin squeeze eyes are narrowed up, safety is not to see the appearance.


    He was also angry.


    Although Han Xuan knew that Han Hu was a little overbearing. But in Han Xuan''s eyes, Han Hu is still filial, which is enough.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Han Xuan thought that he was more and more angry. He slapped his hand on the desk and stood up with sharp eyes.


    Han Hu and Fang Yu look at each other and look happy.


    When Han Xuan comes forward, Huang Zhong is dead.


    They are looking forward to Han Xuan.


    Han Xuan always thought that his rule was peaceful and healthy. At the thought of being so unruly, he ordered, "come on!"


    A valet enters and stands respectfully.


    Han Xuan ordered: "summon Wei Wen and ask him to mobilize 300 elite soldiers to obey the orders of the prefect."


    "Here it is


    I''ll send the order immediately.


    Han Hu a listen, carefully ponder, said: "uncle, I''m afraid 300 elite soldiers is not enough."


    Han Xuan said, "why?"


    Han Hu replied: "Huang Zhong and that boy are extremely cruel people. More than 30 yamen officers in Linxiang county were knocked over in a moment. "


    Han Xuan snorted and said, "the elite soldiers under my command are comparable to yamen soldiers. If you don''t understand military affairs, you don''t have to step in. As long as Wei Wen arrives, he will win the battle. "


    Wei Wen is Han Xuan''s confidant.


    He is in charge of unifying the army.


    When Han Hu saw that Han Xuan said so, he said nothing more.


    In a short time, a middle-aged general with a top helmet and a big figure strode in. He has a swallow chin and a tiger beard. His eyes are bright and bright. He hugs his fist and says, "I''ll meet you, general Wei."


    Han Xuan nodded and said, "have all the soldiers arrived?"


    "Yes


    Wei Wenyan gave a brief and comprehensive answer.


    Han Xuan looked at Fang Yu and Han Hu and said, "lead the way!"


    "Here it is


    Han Hu and Fang Yu should go down together.


    Han Xuan and Wei Wen followed them. They walked out of the palace. Under the leadership of Han Hu, they went straight to Huang Zhong''s residence.


    Less than a quarter of an hour later, he came to the front door.


    Han Xuan waved and the soldiers entered first.


    Han Xuan, Wei Wen, Han Hu, and Fang Yu entered quickly.


    In the yard, Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu sit at will, with a relaxed look on their faces. Even if the soldiers with armour rushed in, the expression on the two faces was still calm and free, without the slightest tension.


    Even if Han Xuan came, Zhang Xiu never got up.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong don''t move. Fang Yu jumps out first and says in a loud voice: "Huang Zhong, Wu that boy, when Han Taishou arrives, he doesn''t get up to greet him. Hum, you should be punished for attacking the officials. "


    Zhang Xiu turned around, facing Han Xuan, and said with a smile: "Han Taishou, what a great prestige!"


    Han Xuan stares at Zhang Xiu and looks carefully. He doesn''t remember that there is such a person in Jingzhou. He can''t find any impression at all. However, when he hears Han Xuan''s words, he is cautious and asks, "who are you?"


    Han Hu said: "uncle, don''t talk to him. This thief is the most rampant. He was responsible for the injuries of his nephew and magistrate Fang. He''s so hateful, it''s time to kill him! "


    Fang Yu also said: "Taishou, this person should be killed."


    Han Xuan glared at them and said again, "your bearing is extraordinary. What''s your name?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "why, I''m a nobody. Is it that Han Taishou is ready to kill people or ignore the facts and take me by force? If you don''t ask the reason, you can bring the troops directly. Han Xuan in Changsha is just like that. "


    "You..."


    Han Xuan gritted his teeth in anger.He is the most concerned about reputation, Zhang Xiu said he was just so, so he is very angry.


    Huang Wan in the room, see Zhang Xiu understatement, let Han Xuan speechless, more excited.


    She wanted to go out of the yard and witness the scene in the yard.


    It''s just that she''s afraid to go out.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Han Xuan''s desperation, she stopped beating around the Bush and said, "Han Taishou, Zhang Xiu is in Nanyang. Don''t know Han Taishou knew my Zhang Xiu, is to plan to use strong, or how to deal with? "


    Zhang Xiu?


    Han Xuan''s pupil shrinks, and a dignified look rises on his face.


    Nanyang Zhangxiu!


    Isn''t this Zhang Xiu, the governor of Nanyang?


    Han Xuan frowned deeply, because Zhang Xiu''s reputation in Jingzhou was too loud. Originally Han Xuan wanted to take people, but now, Han Xuan is hesitant and dare not take people again. After all, Zhang Xiu''s identity is not simple.


    Han Xuanshen said in a deep voice: "Zhang Taishou is Nanyang Taishou and should be in Nanyang County. Now, it appears in Changsha County. Do not know Zhang Taishou in Changsha County, what is the intention? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "my General Huang Zhong, his son is seriously ill under his knees, and it''s not easy to move. I personally went south to Linxiang county and took Huang Zhong north with me. "


    Han Xuan said, "Huang Zhong is my subordinate."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Han Taishou, Huang Zhong was dismissed. How could he be your man?"


    Han Xuan big sleeve a whisk way: "impossible!"


    He turned and looked at Wei Wen and said, "Wei Wen, Huang Zhong is a partial general in the army. When will he leave the army? I have never ordered him to be dismissed. "


    On hearing this, Wei Wen looked bitter.


    Huang Zhong''s removal from office was ordered by him. He also ordered it after taking advantage of Han Hu. I didn''t expect that today, I was so angry.


    Wei Wen explained: "Lord, Huang Zhong is not a gregarious person in the army. He has a rebellious temperament, which is not conducive to the management of the barracks. Therefore, the general has expelled him from the barracks. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Han Xuan yelled.


    He did not expect that such a thing would happen.


    Wei Wen insisted: "Lord, the last general is in charge of the army. He has to deal with those who don''t fit in with others. Such people are not suitable to stay in the army. This is the consideration of the last general. "


    He didn''t say anything about Han Hu.


    Once it is said that Han Hu has taken advantage of it, and Han Hu has instigated it, I''m afraid it will make a big deal.


    But Zhang Xiu said coldly, "Wei Wen? I''m afraid you didn''t dismiss Huang Zhong because he didn''t fit in. As far as I know, Huang Zhong has always loved his soldiers like a son, and he is very popular with them. How can such people be black sheep? What''s more, you removed him from office because you took advantage of Han Hu and were instructed by Han Hu. It''s unbelievable that you are so spiteful and slandering others. "


    "I didn''t!"


    Han Hu quickly quibbled.


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "Han Hu, Han Hu, you are still Han Xuan''s nephew. You don''t even have the courage to admit what you have done. Hum, in order to get Huang Wan, Huang Zhong''s daughter, you deliberately asked Wei Wen to remove Huang Zhong. Then, he took the boy to the door and threatened him. Don''t you dare to admit that you sat down? "


    "I didn''t!"


    Han Hu shook his head again.


    He won''t admit it. It''s absolutely impossible for him to admit it.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Han Xuan, you are also the prefect of a county. It''s very simple to thoroughly investigate this matter. You just need to go to the barracks and investigate in person to understand the reason for Huang Zhong''s dismissal. "


    Brush!


    Wei Wen''s face changed slightly.


    Huang Zhong has been in the army for many years, and he does have some close friends. Moreover, it''s no secret that he dismissed Huang Zhong. Some people knew that he had accepted Han Hu''s arrangement.


    Han Xuan looks at Wei Wen with cold face. For a moment, he is as sharp as a knife.

 Chapter 220

    Han Xuan has some skills to control his subordinates. He knows his subordinates well. Although the people under his command have their own shortcomings, they are also convenient for Han Xuan to control.


    Han Xuan said in a deep voice: "Wei Wen, do you need my official to verify the investigation?"


    Wei Wen felt a pause in his heart.


    He can''t stand the investigation.


    "Plop!"


    He directly knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and said: "Lord, it''s not the intention of the lower officer to recall Huang Zhong, it''s the lower officer''s instruction from master Han Hu. On the one hand, young master Han Hu gave some advantages to his humble position, but he also forced him to give orders. In a moment of confusion, he dismissed Huang Zhong. This is Han Hu''s son to coerce Huang Zhong, let Huang Zhong marry daughter. If you are not guilty, please punish me. "


    I told him everything.


    At this time, the dead way friend doesn''t die poor way, he can''t for Han Hu, first keep himself.


    Han Hu was immediately embarrassed.


    Just now Wei Wen said it was Huang Zhong''s problem. Now he poked him out directly. He looked at Han Xuan and said, "uncle, my nephew really likes Huang Zhong''s daughter. My nephew asked for marriage many times, but Huang Zhong refused. That''s why my nephew made such a bad decision. "


    At this point, he fell on his knees with a plop and said, "my nephew''s father died early. It''s all up to my uncle to bring him up. My nephew has no children. My nephew thought that if he married Huang Wan, he would be able to help the Han family and give birth to a boy as soon as possible. My nephew is very painstaking, but when he comes to ask for Huang Wan''s marriage, he is beaten severely. Please ask my uncle for a lesson. "


    He avoided the heavy and gave way to the light.


    As soon as Han Hu talks about his dead father and Han Xuan''s bringing up Han Hu, and Han Hu''s also for the sake of the Han family, his anger will be slightly relieved.


    He snorted, gently kicked Han Hu, then turned to look at Zhang Xiu, said: "Zhang Taishou, the previous thing, it seems that there is a misunderstanding. I would like to apologize for this. If Huang Zhong was willing to stay in Changsha County, he would be promoted to a higher position. If Huang Zhong doesn''t want to, I''m not reluctant to pay for the damage to Huang Zhong''s family. What do you think, Mr. Zhang? "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "Han Taishou is easy to say, involving the personnel, such as the county magistrate Fang Yu, again such as Wei Wen, these people are not out of it?"


    "I have to deal with it!"


    Han Xuan directly replied that for him, now he has dealt with Fang Yu and Wei Wen. As soon as Zhang Xiu leaves, he can be promoted immediately.


    It''s a very simple thing.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it doesn''t need to be dealt with seriously. Let me give you an opinion. Han Hu''s staff is responsible for the 20 army staff, Fang Yu''s staff is responsible for the 30 army staff, and Wei Wen''s staff is responsible for the 50 army staff. This is the simplest punishment. This is the end of the matter. "


    "No way!"


    Han Xuan''s eyes narrowed and said: "Zhang Xiu, this is Changsha County. You are in Linxiang county. Even if you are beating a dog, you have to see your master. Even if they are guilty, they can''t do what you say. "


    Han Xuan is very clear about the consequences of the twenty army staff.


    If you really fight hard, you can''t get out of bed without ten days and a half months. Once the 50th army goes down, there will be no three or five months. Don''t try to recover completely.


    Han Xuan continued: "Zhang Xiu, I promised to deal with Fang Yu and others. I have given you face. Even if Huang Zhong is now your man. If you want to ask for justice for him, I have also given you an explanation. "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "Han Taishou, it seems that you think our officials are easy to bully, so you''re going to be perfunctory at will. But you have to think about the consequences of offending me. "


    Han Xuan said, "what can you do for me?"


    Wei Wen, Fang Yu and others are all applauded in their hearts. The more tough Han Xuan is, the more excited they are.


    That''s how to be tough.


    Even in Wei Wen''s heart, he hoped that Han Xuan would leave Zhang Xiu and kill her completely.


    Zhang Xiu looks calm, not impatient, said: "Han Taishou does not give a statement, then when I return to Nanyang County, I will attack Xiangyang and ask Liu Jingzhou for a statement."


    Brush!


    Han Xuan''s face changed greatly.


    Although Han Xuan is on the side of the town, he is Liu Biao''s subordinate after all, especially in the southeast border of Changsha County, and Liu Pan, Liu Biao''s nephew, is stationed in the army. Under Liu Biao''s anger, Han Xuan''s official position can not be preserved.


    Han Xuan knows better that Liu Biao is not willing to go to war.


    If Xiangyang is attacked because of him, I''m afraid he will be dismissed by Liu Biao.


    Han Xuan''s heart is panicked, but it is replaced by a touch of Morin''s cold killing intention.


    Zhang Xiu is still in Changsha County.


    If you kill Zhang Xiu, it''s all over.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "of course, Han Taishou surrounded the Huang family with people, and he could also order to kill me. Just Huang Zhong and I don''t know if your hundreds of soldiers can keep us? "


    "Just see, who killed who first?"


    "Or, after Han Taishou killed me, my army got the news and went south from Nanyang County to avenge me. I''m afraid Jingzhou will no longer be as peaceful as it is now. ""The troops under my command, fighting against Huangjin, fighting against Xiongnu and defeating Cao Cao, are all masters of all wars. Some of them came from the Xiliang army. The children of the Xiliang army are very murderous. When they arrive in Xiangyang, they will die and hurt countless people. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I just don''t know if Liu Jingzhou will push you out, and then use you to quell the trouble."


    Han Xuan''s expression changed again and again.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so difficult. If he killed Zhang Xiu, he would get into trouble. If he didn''t kill Zhang Xiu, it would also be trouble.


    For a moment, Han Xuan was in a dilemma.


    Gudong!


    Han Xuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes swept over Han Hu and others, with an angry look on his face.


    These bastards!


    Who is not good to provoke, but to provoke Zhang Xiu.


    It''s a killer.


    Huang Zhong stands behind Zhang Xiu. When he sees Zhang Xiu''s words playing tricks, he puts Han Xuan in a dilemma. He admires Zhang Xiu even more. It''s really Zhang Xiu. This mouth is really powerful.


    In the past, Han Xuan, in his eyes, was the supreme governor.


    But now he found out that Han Xuan was also a man.


    Although Han Xuan is the prefect, but in front of Zhang Xiu, it is also only eat shriveled share.


    Han Xuan hesitated at the moment.


    He wants to deal with Han Hu and others, but he feels ashamed in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu urged: "Han Taishou, you are at least a party Taishou. To tell you the truth, now that you are the prefect, Han Hu and Wei Wen, as well as a county magistrate Fang Yu, dare to interfere in the appointment and removal of personnel from you. I''m afraid it won''t be long before you, Han Xuan, will be elevated, and all the people under your command will be dismissed. At that time, I''m afraid it''s not difficult to seize power. "


    The look in Han Xuan''s eyes suddenly became cold.


    Power, he''s in charge.


    Don''t let people touch you!


    Before and Zhang Xiu confrontation, has been dealing with Zhang Xiu things, Han Xuan did not consider this matter. But now by Zhang Xiuyi, Han Xuan''s anger is rising, and his eyes are sharper than ever.


    He is the prefect of Changsha County.


    He gave Han Hu the right to command. If he doesn''t give Han Hu all his strength, Han Hu can''t command blindly.


    When it comes to the issue of rights, Han Xuan waved his hand and ordered: "come on, take Wei Wen, Han Hu and Han Hu into custody, and dispose of them all on the spot. Each of them is responsible for 50 military staff."


    Zhang Xiu''s proposal is that Han Hu is less, Fang Yu is more, and Wei Wen is the most.


    But now, Han Xuan made the change directly.


    Han Xuan is treated equally, because Han Hu and other people''s arbitrary interference in the appointment and removal of officials has touched Han Xuan''s bottom line, which makes Han Xuan extremely angry.


    Han Hu''s face suddenly collapsed.


    He got 50 feet before, and now he gets 50 army sticks again, and his butt will blossom completely.

 Chapter 221

    Han Hu didn''t want to bear the fifty army stick. He was afraid when he thought of the scene after being beaten, so he begged for mercy and said, "uncle, if my nephew is not well and can''t stand the fifty army stick, please hold up your hand and spare my nephew this time."


    He has some resentment towards Han Xuan.


    Zhang Xiu said that Han Xuan would become a fifty army staff. What''s more, his interference in the appointment and removal of officials in Changsha county is not uncommon, which has existed for a long time.


    In the past, Han Xuan didn''t react too much.


    Now, how to punish like this?


    Han Hu begged for mercy, but Han Xuan was cold and merciless. He scolded: "son of a bitch, you are just bullying in Linxiang County, but you are lawless. If you don''t punish you, you will go to heaven. "


    Han Xuan looked around and said, "come on, do it!"


    As soon as he gave the order, the soldiers moved quickly and took Wei Wen, Fang Yu and Han Hu to the ground.


    After the soldiers found the batons, three soldiers came forward and stood beside them. Rao is so, the soldiers did not fight directly, but looked at Han Xuan, waiting for Han Xuan''s instructions. After all, it''s Wei Wen, Fang Yu and Han Hu who beat. They are the people who stamp their feet and shake Changsha County. They dare not do it at will.


    "Beat me, beat me hard."


    Han Xuan has anger in his heart. He doesn''t intend to keep his hand at all. He orders again.


    At this time, the soldiers just swung the goose egg thick army stick and beat it down. Although the spanking looks like it''s really hard to stop.


    "Bang!"


    The staff fell and the voice was dull.


    "Bang! Bang


    The sound of impact, one after another. The stick hit Wei Wen, but they suddenly found that it was not so painful, so they didn''t even scream.


    Zhang Xiu saw this, but was not satisfied.


    This is obviously a fake fight!


    Zhang Xiu walked up to Han Xuan and said with a light smile: "it''s hard for Han Taishou to be cheated by his subordinates when it comes to the personnel adjustment of Changsha County officials. This kind of painless fight, not even a little sad cry


    "Is this punishment?"


    "For such a big thing, it''s not effective to take such a heavy punishment lightly."


    "I''m afraid next time, it''s not far from you."


    "I''m looking forward to the future of Changsha County," Zhang said


    It''s a provocation.


    Zhang Xiu deliberately wants to make Han Xuan angry.


    Although the method is clumsy, it can be seen at a glance, but Han Xuan''s method can play a role here.


    When Han Xuan heard this, his face was full of anger, and he yelled: "bastard, didn''t you eat? After ten battles, nothing happened. If you don''t fight until the skin is cut open and the blood is flowing, you can''t count. "


    Han Xuan is very angry.


    He hated to see Zhang Xiu one eye, sink a voice way: "need not Zhang Taishou to remind, this official also can see."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu smile, look indifferent, a look at the play.


    After Han Xuan gave the order, the soldiers who executed the execution did not dare to let go any more. They all increased their strength and swung their batons down. The moment the stick hit the buttock, the buttock was shaken and the scream rang out.


    "It hurts!"


    Han Hu tried to roar.


    His ass was red and swollen after being kicked. Now, the staff is really responsible by the military staff, and the buttocks seem to be tearing, which is extremely painful. Wave after wave of pain came, invading Han Hu''s nerves.


    He felt dying.


    His whole ass felt like it was going to be completely smashed.


    Wei Wen and Fang Yu couldn''t stand it. They also began to scream loudly, but Wei Wen was better. After all, he was a military general. He practiced martial arts to build up his body and was better at fighting.


    Fang Yu is different.


    Fang Yu is a civil servant. Before he became an official, he was a rich man who didn''t touch yangchunshui. Now suddenly, he was pressed to the ground by the soldiers, and the baton hit his ass, which was very painful.


    Three people, constantly screaming.


    Han Xuan heard the scream, but there was no fluctuation in his expression. Especially Fang Yu and Wei Wen, he hopes to be punished heavily, so that they can remember today''s lesson.


    Gradually, Han Xuan saw Han Hu''s situation, but he regretted it. Because after thirty army staff, Han Hu''s buttocks were stained with blood, and even more swollen.


    Han Hu screams constantly.


    Han Xuan''s heart beats suddenly. After all, Han Hu is his only nephew and the only lifeblood of the old Han family. In case Han Hu is damaged, what can be done?


    Han Xuan from the beginning of the rage, become a little worried.


    Zhang Xiu at this time, added: "ah, the Han Taishou is really selfless. I originally thought that Han Hu was the nephew of Han Taishou, and the twenty military staff was enough. I didn''t expect that Han Taishou directly wanted to fight the fifty army staff, which was really admirable. But if you think about it, it''s worthwhile for Han Hu to remember this lesson. "Han Xuan''s mouth twitched.


    He listened to Zhang Xiu''s words, but it''s not easy to answer. Can''t you say that he regretted it?


    So what''s his face?


    Han Xuan suddenly thought of the rumors in the market. Before Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao reconciled, Liu Biao dealt with Zhang Xiu several times, but they all ended in failure. Liu Biao suffered losses.


    Now he thinks it''s normal for Liu Biao to suffer losses.


    Zhang Xiu, what a thief.


    In Han Xuan''s mind, the idea of letting the soldiers beat Han Hu a little lighter was just born. In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu began to praise his iron face, which made him unable to speak.


    It''s too hard to deal with.


    Han Xuan is not a man who is good at fighting, and he has no overbearing personality. Seeing that Zhang Xiu is so thorny, he lost the idea of fighting with Zhang Xiu.


    The most important thing is that once Zhang Xiu gets angry, Zhang Xiu may attack Xiangyang.


    This is something Han Xuan can''t afford.


    Liu Biao is attacked by Zhang Xiu. After investigating the cause, he will surely vent all his anger on him and deal with him, so Han Xuan can''t provoke Zhang Xiu.


    "Bang! Bang


    The dull sound of impact is still ringing.


    Han Hu and other three people''s scream, is still echoing in the yard of the Huang family.


    The voice rises and falls one after another.


    Huang Xu heard Han Hu''s scream, but he didn''t hear what Zhang Xiu had said before, so he asked: "sister, what''s the situation now? Why did Han Hu suddenly start screaming? Did he get beaten again? "


    Huang Wan said, "well, I''ve been beaten again. This time, Han Xuan himself ordered it. It''s enough to beat the fifty army staff. Before that, Han Hu''s buttocks are bleeding. "


    "Good fight!"


    Huang Xu is very excited.


    There was also a flush of excitement on the pale cheek.


    Huang Xu said with emotion: "it''s still Zhang Taishou who has a way. Look at his father, he can''t fight or scold Han Hu. He has nothing to do. As soon as Zhang Taishou made a move, he solved the problem. Elder sister, the person you will marry in the future must be like Zhang Taishou. "


    Huang Wan''s face was red with shame.


    She''s not answering.


    Huang Wan''s eyes looked out and fell on Zhang Xiu, who was tall and upright, with a slightly bitter look.


    She is not worthy of Zhang Xiu.


    The gap between the two sides is too big.


    As time goes by, the fifty army staff ends.


    Wei Wen, Fang Yu and Han Hu''s buttocks are already bloody, and they are all smashed. Now they gasped, their faces full of pain and ferocity.


    It hurts!


    Han Hu''s heart cast a shadow on Zhang Xiu.


    He saw Zhang Xiu for the first time. His cheek was so swollen that his eyes narrowed. When he saw Zhang Xiu for the second time, his buttock was injured and he limped when he walked, which was very uncomfortable.


    The third time I saw Zhang Xiu, even if my uncle was there, he was beaten and his ass was broken.


    Han Hu is completely afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu again, I''m afraid I can''t keep my life. Han Hu''s heart, in the fierce pain, put out the idea of revenge for Zhang Xiu, even his uncle can''t help Zhang Xiu, let alone him?


    Fang Yu and Wei Wen dare not make a move.


    They all know that Zhang Xiu is the prefect of Nanyang County. If they go to deal with Zhang Xiu again, they don''t think they are dying fast enough.


    Fang Yu''s heart is broken.


    As long as I knew it was Zhang Xiu, he would never get involved. He is different from Wei Wen, who was punished only after he dismissed Huang Zhong. But he didn''t do anything. If he didn''t get involved, he wouldn''t be beaten, and his face and buttocks wouldn''t be seriously injured.


    Han Xuan didn''t want to stay in his heart for a long time. He said in a deep voice: "you''re satisfied with the disposal of Zhang Taishou?"


    "Satisfied, very satisfied!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Han Taishou''s iron face treatment is admirable."


    Han Xuan snorted, his big sleeve flicked and said, "carry people on your back, let''s go!"


    As the voice falls, Han Xuan takes his hands and leaves the yard. The soldier carried Han Hu, Fang Yu and Wei Wen on his back and left quickly.


    The noisy courtyard is silent again.

 Chapter 222

    After Han Xuan and the others leave, Huang Wan pushes Huang Xu out.


    Huang Xu''s eyes were excited and he couldn''t wait to say: "you are really a God, prefect Zhang. Han Xuan is the prefect of Changsha County. He came to you in a fierce manner, but he didn''t dare to move his swordsmen. After a lot of tossing, he was defeated


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Han Xuan, not enough for fear." As soon as the words changed, he looked at Huang Zhong and asked, "Hansheng, things in Linxiang county have been handled properly. When will you follow me to the north?"


    Huang Zhong thought about it and replied, "my Lord, I''m afraid I can''t leave until tomorrow morning."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t ask much and said, "no problem."


    Huang Zhong explained: "in my humble family, I''m very poor, but I don''t have much to deal with. But these years in Linxiang County, when the family was in trouble, the old friends of the Mongolian army helped them to survive. Now, if you want to leave Linxiang County, you have to go and tell me. You can''t leave without saying a word. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s right to visit. We''re not in a hurry. We''ll leave early tomorrow morning."


    "Thank you," said Huang Zhong


    Zhang xiudao: "Deng Zhan!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Deng Zhan strides in from the door and stands in front of Zhang Xiu. He had been hiding outside the yard, but Han Xuan and his soldiers didn''t find Deng Zhan. If Han Xuan really wants to order the soldiers to besiege Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhanzhan will take a swift step to sneak into the yard and take Han Xuan.


    This is Deng Zhan''s consciousness as an assassin.


    Catch the king first.


    Zhang xiudao said, "take ten liang of gold and give it to Huang Zhong."


    "Here it is


    Deng Zhan went out of the yard, came to the side of the horse, and took out ten taels of gold from his backpack. He took the gold and went into the courtyard. He stretched out his hands and prepared to give it to Huang Zhong.


    Zhang Xiu went south and prepared money.


    After all, solicitors ask for money, and it''s inconvenient to have no money to go all the way south.


    Ten taels of gold, just a fraction.


    Huang Zhong shook his head and said, "I don''t need gold for my humble job. It''s useless to take it. Xu''er went to Yuyang county to get Zhang Zhongjing''s treatment. It''s already a great gift from the Lord. How can I ask for his money again? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "the gold is not for you, but for you to repay your kindness. As a man, I have always been particular about repaying kindness and revenge. A drop of water will be rewarded by a spring. You should repay yourself for the kindness you owe. Since we are going to say goodbye, we should prepare more gifts for our family


    Huang Zhong was silent. A moment later, he made a decision. He solemnly took the gold and said, "thank you, Lord!"


    Ten Liang gold is a drop in the bucket for Zhang Xiu, but it is not a small sum for Huang Zhong. However, it is enough to repay Huang Zhong''s debt.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are busy. Today, I will stay here."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong put away his money, went back to the house, changed his best clothes, and went out quickly.


    Huang Xu was full of interest and said curiously, "it''s a great pleasure to kill Xiongnu. Can you tell me something about killing Xiongnu? I just listen to the road book, do not know the specific situation on the battlefield


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answered with a smile.


    Anyway, he is idle and bored, and has nothing to do.


    When Zhang Xiu tells Huang Xu about the battle with Xiongnu, Han Xuan takes people back to the prefecture. Han Xuan didn''t take care of Wei Wen and Fang Yu. These two people are to blame, but he can''t ignore Han Hu.


    This is the only lifeblood of the Han family.


    In case Han Hu has a problem, the roots of the old Han family will be broken.


    Han Xuan called to the doctor, let the doctor for Han Hu bandage diagnosis and treatment. After the doctor felt Han Hu''s pulse, he looked at his face and the wound on his buttock and frowned.


    Han Xuan said, "what''s the situation?"


    "The doctor said:" not optimistic


    Han Xuan said, "what on earth?"


    The doctor explained: "report to the prefect, Mr. Han Hu is seriously injured. Fortunately, the injury on the face is only caused by external force. Although it is swollen, it can recover after a few days. "


    "The key is that the buttocks are injured on top of each other, not only to the skin, but also to the muscles and bones."


    "Without three or five months, we can''t fully recover."


    The doctor solemnly said: "after taking medicine, Han Hu can only lie on the bed, can''t go down, can''t exert himself. Otherwise, his ass will leave the root of the disease


    Doctors are aware of Han Hu''s bad deeds.


    He doesn''t like Han Hu either.


    But if he wants to support his family, he can only stay in the prefecture. Han Hu is ill, so he has to make a diagnosis and treatment.


    For Han Hu diagnosis and treatment, he deliberately said a little heavy.


    Actually, it''s not that serious.


    He deliberately so, let Han Hu has been in bed, can delay the time of Han Hu to the ground.


    When Han Hu heard that his injury was so serious, he was so scared that he turned pale. He wept, endured the wound on his buttock and face, and said: "uncle, my nephew doesn''t want to lie in bed for three or five months. You are too cruel. It''s clear that if you only get 20 soldiers'' sticks, you have to beat 50 soldiers'' sticks. You are too harsh on your nephew. "Han Xuan puffed his cheek.


    At this time, he had already regretted to the extreme.


    Of course, when he was outside Huang Zhong''s house, Han Xuan already regretted it. It''s just that he was run by Zhang Xiu at that time, and it''s not good for him to change his ways and stop punishing Han Hu. He can only let Han Hu bear the 50 army sticks.


    Han Xuan looked at the doctor and asked, "isn''t there a quick way to cure Huzi''s injury?"


    "No!"


    With a solemn look, the doctor said: "I''m in a humble position to treat young master Han Hu. I don''t want to cure him earlier. If it involves injuries to muscles and bones, we must not be careless. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break one''s muscles and bones. I think it''s better to let Mr. Han Hu cultivate for a long time than to be careless. "


    "Yes, it is."


    Han Xuan thought about it, stroked his beard under his jaw, and agreed with the doctor''s diagnosis.


    Wait for the doctor under the prescription, and give Han Hu dressing left, Han Xuan let the doctor back. He looked at Han Hu lying on the bed and said in a deep voice: "during this period of time, I''d better stop. I can''t do it again."


    Han Hu said: "uncle, even if my nephew wants to go out, he has more heart than strength. The buttocks are rotten like this, and my nephew can only stay at home all day. "


    "You understand," Han Xuan said


    Han Hu changed his words and said: "uncle, Zhang Xiu is so arrogant and threatens you. Is he allowed to be so arrogant? Zhang Xiu is the prefect of Nanyang County. You are the prefect of Changsha County. They are all officials of the same size. What are you afraid of him doing? "


    "Fart!"


    Han Xuan yelled, "Zhang Xiu can kill Xiongnu, can I? Can Zhang Xiu defeat Cao Cao? Can I? To put it more simply, Zhang Xiu can balance Liu Biao, can I? "


    Han Hu''s face froze.


    He really did not expect that his uncle was so afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Han Hu Na said: "uncle, we are so humiliated by Zhang Xiu. When the news gets out, how can the Han family still stand? In particular, Zhang Xiu in front of you threat, arrogant, let him leave Changsha County, too cheap for him


    Han Hu''s heart is extremely afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    He did not dare to retaliate against Zhang Xiu.


    But he was not willing to be treated like this, and it was hard for him to swallow it. But, he can''t hand, afraid to fall in the hands of Zhang Xiu. However, if his uncle Han Xuan does it, it will be different.


    Han Hu is determined to pay attention. He will never face Zhang Xiu in person.


    Hope can only be placed on Uncle Han Xuan.


    Han Xuan''s eyebrows wrinkled. He listened to Han Hu''s words and felt that there was no light on his face.


    At least, he is a prefect.


    But in front of Zhang Xiu, Han Xuan is like a mouse meeting a cat. Most importantly, he was afraid that Zhang Xiu would return to Nanyang County, so he dispatched troops to attack Xiangyang, and he also wanted Liu Biao to preside over justice.


    At that time, he will certainly suffer.


    This is Han Xuan''s fear.


    Seeing that Han Xuan didn''t speak, Han Hu thought he had a chance and continued: "uncle, we don''t have to fight with Zhang Xiu. Is there no other way? "


    Han Xuan heard the speech, and his heart moved.


    He did not immediately answer Han Hu''s words, scolded: "son of a bitch, you are already like this, and you still want to harm people. You should take good care of me. You are not allowed to speculate about other things. I have something to do. I''ll go first. "


    Han Xuan got up and left.


    Han Hu looks at Han Xuan''s back when he leaves. He has a look of expectation in his eyes. His depressed mood suddenly makes him happy. He was brought up by Han Xuan and was familiar with Han Xuan''s temperament. Han Xuan said that he was not allowed to be unpredictable, but he was sure that after Han Xuan left, he would find a way to deal with Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 223

    Han Xuan left the yard and went back to his study.


    As he sat down, his face changed from sharp to worried. After thinking about it for a long time, Han Xuan finally made a decision and said, "come on!"


    A valet enters and stands with a bow.


    Han Xuan said, "come and ask sun min to come."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    After a while, sun min entered the study.


    Sun min was over fifty, a little older than Han Xuan. However, sun min is well maintained, with dark temples and few wrinkles on his face. He looks like a man in his early 40s.


    He has a long beard and chest under his jaw. His eyebrows and eyes are soft, and his eyes are bright.


    He is Han Xuan''s counselor.


    Sun min, dressed in a big shirt with broad collar and elegant bearing, arched his hand and said, "Lord!"


    Han Xuan said, "Sir, sit down!"


    Sun Min said, "Lord Xie!"


    Han Xuan''s expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "I''d like to invite you here, because I hope you can see it for me."


    Sun Min said, "please make it public!"


    Han Xuan didn''t hide it either. He immediately said that he had taken the soldiers to Huang''s home. He also said that Han Hu, Fang Yu and Wei Wen had jointly removed Huang Zhong from office.


    After the general situation was finished, Han Xuan said: "although Wei Wen is wrong, Han Hu is also wrong. But Zhang Xiu''s attitude is too arrogant. He is rebellious and rampant. If we don''t deal with him, our anger will be hard to let go. "


    Sun Min said, "is the Lord going to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Han Xuan answered without hesitation.


    Sun min shook his head and said, "according to the information the Lord got, Zhang Xiu is a very powerful man. Once the Lord deals with Zhang Xiu, the news comes to Zhang Xiu''s ears. Once Zhang Xiu returns to Nanyang County, he may send troops to attack Xiangyang. Zhang Xiu can use her strength to fight against the LORD with the help of Liu Biao. Can the Lord cope with such a situation? "


    Han Xuan said: "I know I can''t deal with it, but I don''t plan to deal with Zhang Xiu. As long as it''s not a positive shot, what can Zhang Xiu do for me? After all, if he can''t find the evidence, he can''t work out the facts. To invite Mr. Zhang to come here is to ask him to give us some advice and find a perfect solution to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Sun min raised his hand, stroked his beard under his jaw, and fell into meditation.


    After thinking for a long time, sun min still had no choice. It is not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu from the side. On the one hand, Huang Zhong is a man with strong martial arts skills. With Huang Zhong, it''s not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu. On the other hand, according to the news from Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu was able to capture wenpin alive, and her martial arts were also extraordinary.


    It''s not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Sun min had no way, but he didn''t admit it directly. The expression on his face is solemn, solemnly way: "Lord, steal to think, we are not suitable to deal with Zhang Xiu.". When it is clear that the matter is over and the Lord is in trouble, he will be the enemy of Zhang Xiu again. "


    Han Xuan said, "I don''t care. I have to deal with him."


    When Han Xuansheng came up with the idea of dealing with Zhang Xiu, this idea was constantly breeding, making his sleep and food uneasy.


    If you don''t deal with Zhang Xiu, you have no idea.


    Han Xuan took a deep breath, brushed his sleeve and said, "I understand your advice. But I have just said that the strategy I need is not to deal with Zhang Xiu head-on, but to do it from the side. Without exposing us, we can deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Sun min couldn''t think of a way in his heart. He insisted: "Lord, this is a fire."


    He has no choice.


    We have to deal with Zhang Xiu, but we can''t reveal our whereabouts.


    Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with.


    After all, Han Xuan''s situation is not suitable to deal with Zhang Xiu. The most important thing is that sun min couldn''t think of a solution in a hurry, so he didn''t want Han Xuan to do it from the bottom of his heart.


    Isn''t that embarrassing him?


    Han Xuan''s eyes cooled down and said strongly: "Mr. Sun, no matter how you plan, I only want the result. If you can''t figure out a way, what can I do for you? On weekdays, when you are in need of food and clothing and money, you should be able to make up your mind for me and come up with a solution. If you can''t think of a way, what''s the use? "


    Brush!


    Sun min''s face suddenly changed.


    Han Xuan is angry.


    If he really can''t find a way, he will be abandoned.


    Sun min used his brain quickly. Suddenly, he had a plan and said, "Lord, I have a plan for my humble position. Since you can''t do it head on, ask the assassin to do it. There are many Rangers in Linxiang county. Let them ambush Zhang Xiang''er on the way back to Linxiu county. In this way, we can retaliate against Zhang Xiu. "


    "No way!"


    Han Xuan shook his head and refused.


    Sun min''s heart suddenly sank. He finally thought of a way, but it was rejected. He was reluctant and said again: "Lord, this is a plan that can attack Zhang Xiu. Why not?"Han Xuan snorted: "Zhang Xiu is a general in the battlefield. She has excellent martial arts and can be invincible. Huang Zhong is a person with excellent martial arts skills. These two are here. Can you ambush them at will? What''s more, once chivalrous children fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu, it will also lead to information leakage, we are also easy to expose


    Sun Min said with a smile, "my Lord, we''ll send someone to look for Rangers. We don''t necessarily leak information."


    "If you say no, you can''t."


    Han Xuan big sleeve a whisk, sink a way: "if you can''t think of a way, this officer looks for another person."


    At this time, Han Xuan lost his patience.


    On weekdays, corporal Han Xuan was extremely concerned about fame. But he is stimulated by Zhang Xiu, and Han Hu is miserable. Han Xuan is out of balance and eager to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    If he wants to deal with Zhang Xiu, he can''t expose himself.


    This is Han Xuan''s bottom line.


    Sun min Gudong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his heart was extremely frightened. At this moment, on his elegant face, there is also a ferocious, quick brain rotation.


    We can''t find a way to keep our jobs.


    Suddenly, sun min had a plan.


    Sun min took a long breath and said, "Lord, I have come up with a plan."


    Han Xuan said, "tell me!"


    Sun Min said with a smile: "before Zhang Xiu went south to Xiangyang, news came to Changsha that when Zhang Xiu married Huang Yueying in Xiangyang, she was assassinated by people from Jiangdong."


    "At that time, Ling you and Zhou Zhong were killed in Jiangdong, and many hidden piles in Jiangdong were killed. To sun ce of Jiangdong, this is absolutely a great shame. "


    "Linxiang county is the seat of Changsha County."


    "Changsha county is also the place bordering Jiangdong."


    "In Linxiang County, there are many spies from Jiangdong. We just need to arrange people to spread the news of Zhang Xiu in the city, saying that Zhang Xiu appeared in the county seat of Linxiang county. "


    "The news must come to the ears of Jiangdong spies."


    With a smile on his face, sun min confidently said: "with the hatred between Zhang Xiu and Jiangdong, these Jiangdong people will definitely not let Zhang Xiu go when they get the news."


    "When Zhang Xiu goes north, they will certainly assassinate him."


    "Zhang Xiu is really good at martial arts, but the people in Jiangdong are not simple. If we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, we will not be affected, and we will be able to make a profit. "


    "If Zhang Xiu wins, Jiangdong''s spies will be injured, and for us, it will be profitable. If the people in Jiangdong kill Zhang Xiu, they will avenge Xue for the Lord. "


    Sun Min said: "if both sides lose, for us, it is an excellent result."


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Han Xuan''s eyes were full of vitality, and suddenly he was happy.


    This is a good way.


    Sun min raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead. He was relieved. At last, he came up with a way, otherwise, it would be really difficult for him.

 Chapter 224

    Han Xuan had a clear plan and was very happy in his heart. He didn''t arrange it in person. He directly ordered sun min to arrange it.


    After all, sun min was his advisor.


    Sun min is responsible for everything.


    When sun min left the prefecture, he mobilized the power of Han Xuan to spread the news that Zhang Xiu appeared in Linxiang county and that Zhang Xiu was in Huang Zhong''s home.


    With the power of the whole Prefecture, the news of Zhang Xiu spread throughout Linxiang County in a short time.


    Zhang Xiu is at home, but she doesn''t know.


    After all, no one came to him for the time being. Even if ordinary people knew that Zhang Xiu was coming, they could not take the initiative to look for Zhang Xiu. There was no relationship between them and Zhang Xiu.


    On the other hand, Huang Zhong is still visiting old friends.


    He took the twelve taels of gold given by Zhang Xiu and bought some cloth, good wine and other gifts when he visited his old friends.


    Huang Zhong can''t afford to send precious jade.


    I don''t have the strength.


    For the average family, to send a few pieces of silk, it is already a very good gift.


    Huang Zhong left several families in a row. He didn''t go back to his house near noon. Instead, he came back to his old friend''s house with some silks and satins, two bottles of aged wine and some dishes.


    The old friend he visited was Zeng yuan.


    Zeng yuan was a general in the army.


    In his early thirties, he was a rugged, burly man. He had a strong disposition and was jealous of evil. Because of Wei Wenke''s deduction of soldiers'' salaries, he personally asked Wei Wen for an explanation. Finally, Wei Wen dismissed him as the centurion and left the army.


    Zeng''s family is a big family in Linxiang county. When Zeng yuan left the army, he relied on his family''s property to do some small business. His life was easy.


    He and Huang Zhong still keep in touch from time to time.


    In particular, Huang Xu''s condition is repeated and he needs a lot of money for treatment. Huang Zhongben is not greedy, and he is not willing to embezzle the money of his soldiers. He doesn''t have much money.


    His little food and pay is not enough to cure his son.


    Most of the time, they rely on Zeng yuan for relief.


    This is the person who helped Huang Zhong the most.


    Huang Zhong often comes to Zeng yuan''s house and is familiar with the Zeng family. As soon as he arrived, the present was accepted by the housekeeper. Then, the housekeeper and Huang Zhong were in the backyard soon.


    At this time, Zeng yuan was practicing martial arts.


    Zeng Yuanguang''s strong arms, two Xuanhua axes flying up and down, dancing closely.


    "Good, good!"


    When Huang Zhong saw this, he applauded.


    Zeng yuan''s martial arts are excellent.


    Although Zeng yuan is not as good as Huang Zhong, he is also a valiant general in the army.


    Hearing Huang Zhong''s voice, Zeng yuan immediately stopped, threw his Xuanhua axe aside, and said with a smile, "brother Hansheng, my little martial arts are not worth mentioning in front of you


    Huang Zhong said, "my brother is modest."


    The housekeeper came forward and said that Huang Zhong had sent a gift.


    Zeng yuan asked the housekeeper to step down. He walked up to Huang Zhong and hit him on the shoulder with one blow. He said, "you and I are very happy when you come. What gift do you take?"


    Huang Zhong smiles and doesn''t answer.


    When he visited Zeng yuan, he borrowed money from Zeng yuan, and he had no money to give gifts. Now that he has this condition, he has to repay Zeng yuan. This is his way of life.


    "Go and talk in the study."


    Zeng yuan took the handkerchief from the servant, wiped his sweat and took Huang Zhong to the study.


    After entering the study, the guest and host take their seats.


    Zeng yuan took the lead in saying, "Congratulations, brother Hansheng."


    Huang Zhong was puzzled and asked, "what do you wish me to do, my dear brother?"


    Zeng Yuan said with a smile: "Han Sheng, I already know about your dismissal by Wei Wen, and I know that you have won the position of Zhang Xiu. It''s not a big joy. What''s that? You, ah, can be regarded as the first to find a person to follow. Zhang Xiu is a general, not Han Xuan. If you follow him, maybe Xuer''s illness will be cured. "


    Huang Zhong''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu''s news has not been made public. How did Zeng yuan know?


    Huang Zhongxun asked, "my dear brother, the news of my Lord in Linxiang county is secret. How do you know? I haven''t told you that. You know it in advance. "


    Zeng yuan was surprised and said, "don''t you know?"


    "What do you know?" Huang said


    Zeng yuan leaned forward slightly and explained: "the whole Linxiang county is talking about Zhang Xiu. He said that when Zhang Xiu arrived in Linxiang County, he still lived in your home. It''s a matter that anyone who comes out of the city knows. "


    Huang Zhong''s heart clapped.


    What''s going on?


    After thinking about it in his heart, he soon had a guess.


    Zhang Xiu can not take the initiative to publicize, and those who know her whereabouts are Han Xuan, Fang Yu and Wei Wen. Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts exposed, the biggest suspect, must be Han Xuan.Because in such a short period of time, if we want to spread the news all over Linxiang County, it can only be Han Xuan, there can be no other people.


    Huang Zhong restrained his conjecture and said, "I didn''t expect that Han Xuan would use such a dirty method after he had eaten in front of the Lord. However, Han Xuan made the whole city stormy, and he didn''t know what his purpose was? The news from outside is true. Now that I have become my Lord, I will go north with him to Yuyang county. "


    Zeng Yuan said, "Congratulations, brother Hansheng."


    Huang Zhong changed his words and said, "my brother has excellent martial arts skills and knows how to lead soldiers. My Lord, you are in urgent need of talents like you. Why don''t you go north with me? "


    Zeng yuan was stunned.


    He did not expect that Huang Zhong would make such a request.


    Immediately, Zeng yuan shook his head and said with a smile: "brother Hansheng''s kindness is in my heart. My wife and children are all in Linxiang County, and my family''s industries are all here. Let me abandon my hometown and go north with governor Zhang. I can''t do it. "


    "It''s a pity."


    Huang Zhong sighed: "if you go north with your Lord, our brothers can join hands to kill the enemy on the battlefield."


    Zeng yuan gave a gloomy smile.


    In his heart, he also wanted to go to the battlefield to win a reputation. But for him, now his wife and children and family business are the most important. He can''t leave Linxiang county at will.


    Huang Zhong digs off the topic and says with a smile, "you know, Wei Wen was beaten miserably today."


    Zeng yuan asked with a smile, "what''s the matter?"


    There was hatred between Zeng yuan and Wei Wen. If the Zeng family were not a big local family in Linxiang County, and their strength in Linxiang county was not weak, I''m afraid Zeng yuan would not only be expelled from the barracks, but also be further accused.


    Thanks to the powerful family, Wei Wencai did not go further.


    "Wei Wen and Han Xuan together surrounded my house with the army," Huang explained. Under the words of the Lord, Wei Wen was beaten by Han Xuan for 50 years. His skin was split and his buttocks were bloody. In a short time, he would not want to get out of bed. "


    Huang Zhong gave a general description of the situation at that time.


    "Good, good fight!"


    Zeng yuan''s face was full of smiles.


    Wei Wen just didn''t clean up.


    Huang Zhong and Zeng yuan chatted in a warm atmosphere. After all, they had a good relationship. At dinner time, the waiter prepared wine, meat and delicacies. After lunch, Huang Zhong left Zeng''s house in a hurry and quickly returned to his residence.


    He wants to tell Zhang Xiu the news.


    So that Zhang Xiu can make timely response.

 Chapter 225

    When Huang Zhong returned home, Zhang Xiu and others had already had lunch.


    Huang Wan prepares all the meals of the Huang family. Huang Wan is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also excellent in cooking. Although the food at home is simple, it''s a very common meal. In Huang Wan''s hands, it has become quite delicious.


    Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan ate the Huang family''s rations for three days.


    Fortunately, Huang Wan does not have to worry about food.


    They''re going north.


    Huang Zhong saw Zhang Xiu. After he saluted, he asked Huang Wan to take Huang Xu back to the room and solemnly said, "Lord, when I was walking outside, I got a piece of news. The news of your visit to Linxiang county has spread all over Linxiang County, and all the people in the city know it. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows are more dignified.


    He went south to hide his whereabouts.


    No matter soliciting Liu Ba and Li Yan, or other people, they did not reveal their whereabouts. But now, the news is suddenly known to all.


    Obviously, this is arranged by Han Xuan.


    No one has such energy except Han Xuan.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu was not worried and said, "the reason why I hide my whereabouts is that I don''t want Liu Biao to know. Of course, even if Liu Biao knows, it''s nothing. "


    For Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    Liu Biao is a paper tiger.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "when he came back from his friend''s home, he was thinking about Han Xuan''s purpose all the way. If Han Xuan just released the news, it would not take much trouble to make use of Liu Biao. He only needs a letter to tell Liu Biao that there is no need to make such a fuss. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you mean?"


    Huang Zhong replied, "after thinking about his humble job, I think there is another possibility."


    Zhang Xiu asked: "what is possible?"


    Huang Zhong hurled a voice: "Han Xuan''s purpose is to kill people with a knife."


    Zhang xiudao: "borrow whose knife."


    "Jiang Dong sun CE!"


    Huang Zhong had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "I heard that my Lord was assassinated by Jiangdong''s assassin when he married his mother in Xiangyang. This news has spread all over Jingzhou. "


    "At that time, all the assassins in Jiangdong were killed, and none of them survived."


    "For sun CE, this is a great shame."


    "Sun CE, a young man, is not willing to endure. He has suffered such a big loss in the Lord''s hands. He must take revenge and be shamed before the snow. "


    Huang Zhong said, "even if sun CE doesn''t come to Jingzhou in person, he will instruct the people lurking in Jingzhou to look for opportunities to deal with the Lord."


    "Linxiang County, as the seat of Changsha County, is adjacent to Jiangdong, and there are often wars with Jiangdong, which is the place where most of Jiangdong''s hidden pile spies are lurking."


    "Once the spies in Jiangdong get the news, the people behind the scenes will deal with the Lord. Now it''s in Linxiang county. They may not do it, but if we leave Linxiang County, we may be encircled. "


    Huang Zhong put forward his inference.


    Huang Zhong thought about it.


    Along the way, he was pondering over Han Xuan''s purpose, only thinking of this possibility.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed a look of approval on her face and praised: "it''s true that Han Sheng is worried about it. It''s probably so. The hatred between me and Jiangdong is more than that between Zhou Zhong and Ling you. "


    "This time I went south to Jingzhou to recruit talents. When I was recruiting Liu Ba near Xiangyang, I met lingcao, a powerful general of Jiangdong. At that time, I killed Ling Cao and his subordinates. "


    "The news that these people were killed must have been sent back to Jiangdong, and the secret pile in Changsha county must have got the news early. With such a premise, it is impossible to resolve the relationship between Jiangdong and me. "


    "This time when they know my whereabouts, they are bound to come at me like moths."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that there is bound to be a confrontation with Jiangdong people."


    Huang Zhong was very surprised.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu went south and killed a strong general of Jiangdong.


    He also knows about Ling Cao.


    Ling Cao is a brave general who dares to fight and kill in the battlefield. It''s a pity that such a fierce man died in Xiangyang and Zhang Xiu''s hands in obscurity.


    Huang Zhong changed his words and continued: "the situation at present must be broken. If there is no Xu''er and Wan''er, it is not difficult to kill them with their humble position and the strength of the Lord. But with their drag, it is bound to be affected. "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and confidently said, "it''s not difficult for them to arrange. Let''s go ahead and let them both leave later. If they leave first, they are vulnerable to ambush. "


    "Before you leave, hide them in the city. After we leave, Deng Zhan will escort them north. In this way, their safety can be guaranteed. "


    "Moreover, let''s go north first and go straight to Wuguan in the north of Nanyang County.""After Huang Wan and Huang Xu went north, they went directly to Yuyang county and asked Zhang Zhongjing to treat Huang Xu, so that they would not delay time. I will write a letter so that Yuyang county can make arrangements to ensure that Huang Xu can be treated. "


    Zhang Xiu gave a solution.


    Huang Zhong was overjoyed and said, "thank you very much


    He agreed with Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and the light was shining in her eyes. Gradually, Zhang Xiu''s face had a cold look, and said in a deep voice: "Han Xuan revealed my news and wanted to kill people with a knife. He thought it was beautiful."


    "It''s not polite to come here. I''ll go to the prefect''s house and find Han Xuan to give me an explanation."


    "Now that people in Jiangdong know my whereabouts, they''ll do whatever they want. This time, I used Han Xuan''s power to get rid of all the people who threatened me. "


    Zhang Xiu already has a plan to deal with it.


    Huang Zhong asked, "what is the master going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu did not hide, immediately said the next arrangement.


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong agreed: "the plan made by the Lord is really feasible."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can arrange the settlement of Huang Wan and Huang Xu. Do you have a place for two people in Linxiang county? When we leave, they will go north no later


    "Yes!"


    Huang Zhong answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "can you entrust life and death?"


    "Yes!"


    Huang zhongduding replied.


    His official position is not prominent, and he does not have many friends, but there are many brothers who can really entrust life and death.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I leave Deng Zhan to protect Huang Wan. This afternoon, you set up the people. Now it''s quite dangerous for them to stay at home. In case the people in Jiangdong take action ahead of time, they will be in trouble. "


    "I understand."


    Huang Zhong answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu called to Deng Zhan, gave orders, and wrote two letters to Deng Zhan.


    A letter was sent by Deng Zhan to Xu Shu, who arranged Huang Wan and Huang Xu. Another letter was sent to Zhang Zhongjing by Deng Zhan, so that Zhang Zhongjing could diagnose and treat Huang Xu earlier.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu went out of the yard, turned over and went straight to the direction of the prefect''s house.


    He was not familiar with the road, but after a little inquiry, he found the way to the prefecture. After a short time, Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the prefect''s office and was ready to enter the prefect''s office.


    "Stop!"


    The porter reached out to stop Zhang Xiu and said, "don''t you know it''s the prefect''s residence? Cat and dog, you can''t enter at will. Who are you and who are you looking for? "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t get angry. She said, "I''ll come to Han Xuan and tell him that Zhang Xiu has arrived."


    When the porter heard Zhang Xiu''s name, he didn''t respond for a moment. He snorted reflexively and rubbed his fingers again. He motioned for Zhang Xiu to take the money and said, "I don''t care if you are Zhang Xiu, beixiu or zhaoxiu. When you go to the gate of Taishou''s house, you have to obey the rules."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and asked, "don''t you report it?"


    "No!"


    The porter answered with his head raised.


    He has been on duty at the gate of the prefect''s residence for many years. People who know him well know that when they get to the door, they have to give a little favor. But Zhang Xiu doesn''t say anything about it. He is determined not to report it.


    Zhang Xiu under the foot of the force, kick out.


    "Bang!"


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu''s foot kick to the porter''s chest, fierce force impact, the porter screamed, body backward fly out, suddenly fell to the ground.


    The porter bared his teeth in pain, his whole body was in pain, and his whole body seemed to fall apart.


    "You, you..."


    The porter glared with terror.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu should make a direct move.


    Zhang Xiu cold eyes, once again: "immediately to report, Nanyang prefect Zhang Xiu arrived, let Han Xuan go out to meet."


    "Ah


    The porter shivered with fright.


    He knows Nanyang prefect Zhang Xiu, who dares to beat Han Hu. He can''t provoke Zhang Xiu. When I heard Zhang Xiu''s name just now, I asked for money reflexively. I didn''t respond for a moment.


    Unexpectedly, it was Nanyang prefect Zhang Xiu.


    The porter Gul Dong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and ran to the prefect''s house quickly.

 Chapter 226

    In the study, Han Xuan is reading a book.


    He arranged for sun min to spread the news, with the help of Jiangdong''s power to deal with Zhang Xiu, which can be regarded as a vent. Han Xuan now, waiting for Zhang Xiu to leave Linxiang County, waiting for the news that Zhang Xiu was ambushed.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock at the door.


    "Come in!"


    Han Xuan orders.


    The porter opened the door and entered the study. After saluting respectfully, he said, "my Lord, when Zhang Xiu arrived at the door, he asked you to go out to meet him."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Han Xuan''s eyes were sharp and he scolded: "what is he, Zhang Xiu?"


    As soon as the porter listened to Han Xuan''s words, he nodded and agreed. He fanned the flames and said, "I don''t want Zhang Xiu to enter my humble position, but after a few words of theory with Zhang Xiu, I was kicked by Zhang Xiu. My Lord, Zhang Xiu is too arrogant. "


    Han Xuan heard this, but his heart was thump.


    Zhang Xiu hits the porter!


    This is a call to the door.


    Zhang Xiu is so powerful. Did she guess that he ordered sun min to spread the news all over the city?


    Han Xuan is guilty of being a thief.


    Han Xuan arranged for sun min to spread the news. At the beginning, he was quite excited. He felt that he had a bad breath and his idea was clear. But now, as soon as Zhang Xiu hit the door, his heart gradually sank down, a little nervous and full of imagination.


    Although he scolds Zhang Xiu for being a jerk, he can think about what Zhang Xiu is doing. His indecisive temperament takes the upper hand. He is worried that if Zhang Xiu returns to Nanyang County in anger, he may mobilize the army to ask Liu Biao for justice.


    Then, he will be in a dilemma.


    Han Xuan''s mood, at this moment, becomes extremely irritable. He turned his eyes and said, "go and tell Zhang Xiu that I''m not at home. I''m going out."


    "Ah?"


    The porter was surprised.


    How to avoid Zhang Xiu?


    It''s clear that Zhang Xiu is reckless in the prefecture. Shouldn''t he mobilize the soldiers to deal with Zhang Xiu?


    The porter looked up at Han Xuan, thought about it, and solemnly said, "your honor, you are too kind. Zhang Xiu is so rampant that he must be taught to show the dignity of adults. "


    Han Xuan''s eyes were sharp, and he yelled, "get out of here!"


    "Yes, yes!"


    The porter looked at the situation and ran out as soon as he saw that it was not right.


    Soon the porter arrived at the gate.


    When the porter saw Zhang Xiu, he was afraid of being beaten again. Especially thinking of Han Xuan''s attitude, he did not dare to provoke Zhang Xiu any more. He whispered: "we are not in your house, marshal Zhang. If you have anything to do, come back another day. "


    Zhang Xiu examined the porter and asked, "Han Xuan, is he really not at home?"


    The porter nodded busily.


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes, as if to see through the porter''s heart, once again said: "how about this, after I beat you hard, how about asking you again?"


    "Ah


    The porter exclaimed again.


    What is this operation?


    He just conveys Han Xuan''s words, but he wants to be beaten. The porter''s eyes were rolling, thinking whether he should say Han Xuan was there or not.


    As soon as he pondered, Zhang Xiu had a solid foundation.


    Just now Zhang Xiu''s threat was just to test the porter, so as to determine whether Han Xuan was in the mansion.


    Seeing the look of the porter, Zhang Xiu knew that Han Xuan was in his family. He said directly, "go tell Han Xuan that my official is leaving Linxiang county. When I return to Nanyang County, I will mobilize the army to attack Xiangyang and ask Liu Biao for justice. "


    "Gone!"


    With that, Zhang Xiu went down the steps, led the horse, turned around and went out.


    The porter has some doubts. What does Zhang Xiu''s attack on Xiangyang have to do with Changsha County?


    But he didn''t dare to delay.


    The porter quickly entered the mansion, then came to the study and reported: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu has gone."


    "Good!"


    Han Xuan stroked his beard and smiled with joy.


    In his heart, he took the cup in front of him and took a sip of tea.


    The porter glanced at Han Xuan and continued: "when Zhang Xiu left, she left a word. He said that when he returned to Nanyang County, he would mobilize the army to attack Xiangyang and ask Liu Biao for justice. My Lord, do you think Zhang Xiu is stupid to say that... "


    "Poof!"


    As soon as Han Xuan hears Zhang Xiu''s words, he sprays all the tea in his mouth.


    He can''t sit.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are equivalent to seizing Han Xuan''s seven inches, which makes Han Xuan in trouble.


    Han Xuan didn''t dare to delay. He stood up and went straight out. As he walked, he drank and scolded the porter. After rushing out of the courtyard and out of the prefect''s house, Han Xuan didn''t see anyone, and he was even more panicked.


    If Zhang Xiu really attacks Xiangyang, what will he do?


    In Han Xuan''s room, he had to carry his robe with both hands and run forward quickly. After running for a long time, Han Xuan saw a tall figure in front of him.It''s Zhang Xiu.


    He asked the porter to send a message, and determined that Han Xuan would come after him.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu has been leading the horse. If he rode on a horse, he would have been far away from the prefecture, and Han Xuan could not catch up. Zhang Xiu heard the footsteps coming from the rear, looked back and saw Han Xuan in a hurry to catch up.


    Just Zhang Xiu at the foot of non-stop, still not impatient to move forward.


    When Han Xuan saw Zhang Xiu, his face brightened and he exclaimed, "Zhang Taishou, wait a minute, wait a minute!"


    He''s panicking now.


    In Han Hu''s encouragement, as well as his anger at Zhang Xiu, he can''t help thinking about it. Now, seeing that Zhang Xiu is going to send troops to the north, he completely forgets the pleasure of killing people with a knife. He just wants to stabilize Zhang Xiu so that Zhang Xiu will not attack Xiangyang.


    Zhang Xiu is still on her way.


    He didn''t stop at all.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s speed slows down, it is not much slower than Han Xuan. Han Xuan ran after him quickly. After a long run, he was out of breath.


    However, Han Xuan did not dare to stop, while running, while shouting: "Zhang Taishou, and wait."


    His breath was unsteady and his voice was hoarse.


    Distance, a little closer.


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than ten steps, Zhang Xiu stopped. He turned to be alone and looked at Han Xuan, who was panting and running, and said, "how did Han run out of the prefecture when he was not in the prefecture? Could it be that Han Taishou would come back directly from a distance with the skill of escaping


    Han Xuan is very embarrassed.


    He really didn''t want to see Zhang Xiu, so he let the porter refuse. Who knows Zhang Xiu direct threat, let him have to come forward. If Zhang Xiu really sent troops to attack Xiangyang, he would be finished.


    Han Xuan put his hands on his knees, slightly lowered his head and gasped.


    It took a long time to slow down.


    Han Xuan stood up straight and said with a smile, "Tai Shou Zhang, I had something important to deal with before. I was so busy that I let the porter say that I was not here. I don''t know if Tai Shou Zhang is looking for me, but what''s the matter? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I had something to do before, but now it''s all right. Han Taishou, please go back. "


    "No, no!"


    Han Xuan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, it''s my fault. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu squinted at Han Xuan and said with a sneer, "is the important thing of Han Taishou planning to kill people with a knife and let me die on the way back to Nanyang County?"


    Brush!


    Han Xuan''s face changed greatly.


    It''s over!


    I''ve been seen through!


    Han Xuan realized that sun min''s plan was meticulous and could not be seen through. But he did not expect that the plan was easily seen through by Zhang Xiu. But in front of Zhang Xiu''s face, Han Xuan could not admit it. He said with a smile: "Zhang Taishou and I, they are also colleagues. How can I kill people with a knife. I have no idea what you said. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "since Han Taishou doesn''t know, what do you want to do? Since we don''t know, we have nothing to say. If I return to Nanyang County, I will certainly send troops to the south, unless Han Taishou sends troops to kill me now. "


    "Oh, why do you have to do that?"


    Han Xuan was so angry that he stamped his feet and looked impatient. He said again, "I really didn''t do anything


    "Gone!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu brushed her big sleeve, she turned around and left.


    Now he has the initiative. As long as he attacks Xiangyang, he will be invincible, which is enough to force Han Xuan to submit.


    Because Han Xuan has no courage to kill him!


    If Han Xuan really has the courage to fight and mobilize soldiers to encircle, even if Zhang Xiu is good at martial arts, he can''t defeat the sea of people tactics.


    When Zhang Xiu is dead, Liu Biao will be angry.


    However, in the case that Zhang Xiu has been killed, Liu Biao can no longer kill Han Xuan. At least, Liu Biao won''t deal with Han Xuan until he can stop Zhang Xiu''s troops going south. If Liu Biao can''t stop it, that''s another matter.


    But Han Xuan didn''t have the courage.


    Han Xuan saw Zhang Xiu leave, is more eager, like ants on the hot pot, quickly took Zhang Xiu''s hand, said: "Zhang Taishou, everything is easy to discuss, why so?"


    Without saying a word, Zhang Xiu went straight ahead.


    He said nothing.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is enough to easily drag Han Xuan forward.


    Han Xuan completely flustered, he has always been indecisive, now see Zhang Xiu attitude hard, heart incomparable regret provoking Zhang Xiu, dare not sophistry, said: "Zhang Taishou, Han Xuan wrong, regret should not arrange people to spread the news, please Zhang Taishou Haihan."


    He admitted it.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart sneers. As far as Han Xuan''s city hall is concerned, she has already been the prefect of a county.


    Cao Cao would not admit it.


    In troubled times, there is no city government, no plot of ingenuity, but in a high position, can only be reduced to the flesh of his population.

 Chapter 227

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes became cold, and she said in a deep voice: "Han Taishou is really powerful. Previously, in Huang Zhong''s home, the enmity between you and me was dispelled. Now, you arbitrarily use the stratagem of killing people with a knife, intending to kill me with the help of people lurking in Linxiang County in Jiangdong. Good, good! "


    Han Xuan was embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu knows all the plans sun Min has made.


    With a smile, Han Xuanshan waved his hand and said, "prefect Zhang, how about going into the mansion first? I''m willing to make an apology for what I''ve done wrong. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a cold voice: "Han Taishou doesn''t welcome me. Why go? I visited in person, but was turned away by Han Taishou. Now, why do you have to be so hypocritical? "


    "Welcome, welcome


    Han Xuan''s tone at the moment is already flattering. He didn''t realize that the prefect of the county was already in a low voice in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu stopped putting on airs and said, "let''s go!"


    "Please! Come on, please


    Han Xuan was so happy that he took Zhang Xiu with him and entered the prefecture.


    Seeing Han Xuan''s appearance, the porter widened his eyes, with an incredible look.


    Han Xuan, whom he knew, was superior.


    Once upon a time, so fawning?


    Is this Han Xuan?


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Han Xuan had a warm smile on his face and said with a smile, "there is no deep hatred between us, Taishou Zhang. It''s just some small bumps that lead to misunderstandings. It''s impulsive to use a knife to kill people. Please forgive me. "


    "Understanding?"


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "if I can''t see through your han Xuan''s plan, as soon as I leave Linxiang County, I will fall into a lot of murders. Han Taishou, this is not a small pimple. How do you want me to understand? "


    Han Xuanlian said, "I''m willing to pay for it."


    After a pause, Han Xuan said, "in my hand, I have a beautiful jade. Its texture and alcohol, feel excellent, and natural into a ring, valuable. I''m willing to apologize for my mistake. "


    "No need."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "treasures, jades, money and so on are all external things. I''m not interested in Zhang Xiu. I have always been kind and vengeful. If you want to use a knife to kill someone, someone will give you advice. Please call the person who gives you advice. "


    "Good!"


    Han Xuan didn''t hesitate, so he immediately ordered his servants to call sun min.


    Soon, sun min entered the hall.


    Han Xuan said: "Taishou Zhang, he is sun min, and it is his strategy to kill people with a knife."


    Zhang Xiu looked at Sun min and had a plan in her mind, so she looked at Han Xuan and said in a deep voice: "Han Taishou, I just said, revenge. Since it was Sun Min who put forward the plan to deal with me, we should punish sun min. It''s up to you how to punish. "


    Han xuandeng was in a dilemma.


    If Zhang Xiu puts forward the specific request of punishing sun min, Han Xuan can abandon sun min. after all, it''s Zhang Xiu''s request, and he can''t stop it. Under this premise, it has no influence on Han Xuan''s reputation.


    It can only be said that Zhang Xiu is too rampant and overbearing, and Han Xuan is bullied by Zhang Xiu.


    Now it''s different!


    Zhang Xiu asks Han Xuan to deal with sun min. you know, sun min is Han Xuan''s counselor and confidant. What a shame for Zhang xuanxiu?


    What''s his face when it comes out?


    Who will be loyal to him then?


    Zhang Xiu sees Han Xuan''s embarrassed look and understands that Han Xuan has seen through his intention. However, Zhang Xiu wanted Han Xuan to be in a dilemma, and he wanted Han Xuan to practice his own reputation.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    Han Xuan took a deep breath and solemnly said, "can you open up a little bit, marshal Zhang?"


    Zhang Xiu said nothing.


    Han Xuan is embarrassed.


    Sun min frowned in his eyes. Although he does not know the cause and effect, from the dialogue between Han Xuan and Zhang Xiu, he knows that the plan failed, and Han Xuan has to please Zhang Xiu.


    He is about to become an abandoned son.


    Sun min stood with his head high and said nothing. At this critical moment, he also wants to have a look. What will Han Xuan do? No matter sun min or Zhang Xiu, they all stare at Han Xuan and see what he will do.


    After pondering for a long time, Han Xuan made a decision in his heart and ordered, "come on!"


    The voice dropped and a soldier entered.


    Han xuanlang said: "Sun min intends to murder Zhang Taishou. He should be punished for his crime and put people to death."


    Brush!


    Sun min''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t expect that Han Xuan would be so cruel that he would be executed directly.


    "Plop!"


    Sun min knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy


    "Drag it down!"


    Han Xuan big sleeve a whisk, under the order.


    Sun min begged, but Han Xuan didn''t say a word. Now Han Xuan has the intention to kill sun min, so that he can kill him completely.The soldiers dragged sun min and strode out.


    Sun min struggled, but to no avail.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there is a flash of light. He underestimates Han Xuan, but he doesn''t expect that Han Xuan wants to get rid of his roots. Of course, this is the best way for Han Xuan to kill sun min, which can prevent Han Xuan from dealing with sun min.


    Zhang Xiu did not want to see this situation, he said: "wait a minute!"


    The soldiers stopped.


    Han Xuan frowned and said, "what''s wrong with Zhang Taishou?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s too bloody and brutal to kill people. All I want is to punish sun min. Another way of punishment is to punish the 20 soldiers with the staff and drive them out of the prefecture. "


    Han Xuan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.


    It was Zhang Xiu who forced him to punish sun min. When he decided to kill sun min, Zhang Xiu came to play a good man again, which made him in an embarrassing situation.


    Zhang Xiu is so bad.


    Han Xuan''s heart gives birth to a strong sense of fatigue, and Zhang Xiu do right, is really too tired.


    Every step is calculated.


    Han Xuan had made up his mind, but he didn''t want to let Sun min go. He said in a deep voice, "Sun min should be killed for murdering Zhang Taishou. If I don''t kill him, it''s hard to calm down my anger. There''s no need to persuade him. "


    There is no doubt that Zhang Xiu said: "killing people is too much."


    Han Xuan is dumb.


    Zhang Xiu does not answer the words, does not give him the leeway of disposal, makes him very helpless.


    Sun min looked in his eyes and shook his head in his heart. He is Han Xuan''s counselor. He knows that the reason why Zhang Xiu saves him is not to show mercy, but to show him the most merciless side of Han Xuan in front of him.


    This is the best way to kill the heart.


    Deliberately with the help of Han Xuan''s hand, let him see clearly Han Xuan''s indifference.


    Sun min was relieved again.


    With Zhang Xiu, he can''t die.


    Although his ass is going to suffer, it''s lucky that he can''t die.


    Sun min''s heart was cold to Han Xuan. To deal with Zhang Xiu''s request is Han Xuan''s request. He once persuaded Han Xuan not to deal with Zhang Xiu. It is Han Xuan''s constant supervision and even threat.


    In the end, he gave a plan to kill people with a knife.


    And he became the scapegoat.


    His heart is so cold!


    Han Xuan saw Zhang Xiu insisted, but also helpless, ordered: "in accordance with Zhang Taishou''s command to do."


    The soldier stretched out his hand to drag sun min to leave. At this time, sun min brushed his sleeve and said, "I''ll go by myself!"


    Then he went straight out.


    The soldiers followed and went out.


    Han Xuan forced a smile on his elegant face and said, "Mr. Zhang, I have dealt with sun min according to your request. This time, can we stop here? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "so far? Han Taishou, you''re kidding. After the implementation of your plan, countless dark piles in Jiangdong know my whereabouts. As soon as I get out of Linxiang County, I will be in danger. You said, "what should I do?"


    Han Xuan looks embarrassed.


    This is the end of the matter, and he can''t get it back.


    Han Xuan''s heart also hopes that Zhang Xiu will die in the ambush. Although he has to curry favor with Zhang Xiu now, he has to stabilize Zhang Xiu, but in his heart, he wants Zhang Xiu to die earlier.


    He hated Zhang Xiu to death.


    This time, he suffered too much loss in Zhang Xiu.


    He''s too angry to speak!


    Zhang Xiu saw that Han xuanna didn''t say anything, and continued: "the danger I''m facing now is caused by Han Taishou. Then, Han Taishou must solve this matter for me. "


    Han Xuan said: "how to solve it?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed sharp light and said: "as long as I go north, I will be ambushed. So I need a team of soldiers to protect my safety and escort me out of Linxiang county. As long as I arrive safely, Han will be fine. If I have a problem, you must be responsible for it. "


    Han Xuan assured: "no problem, I immediately mobilize soldiers, escort Zhang Taishou north."


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s settled."


    "No problem!"


    Han Xuan is ready to respond.


    Can appease Zhang Xiu, he is also a sigh of relief, he does not want to talk with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is too difficult.

 Chapter 228

    Han Xuan changed his words and said: "the matter has been agreed. I''ll arrange a banquet in my house to help the empress Zhang clean up the dust. At the same time, it''s also for Zhang Taishou to practice. "


    "Don''t worry!"


    Zhang Xiu reached out to stop her.


    Han Xuan''s heart was hanging in the air again, and he asked, "what''s the matter, governor Zhang?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "just now I just said that I would punish sun min and ask you to arrange soldiers to escort me north to Yuyang county. But this time you calculated me like this, it was you Han Xuan who provoked me first. Do you mean no compensation? "


    Han Xuan said uneasily: "how to compensate?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''m not interested in treasures and jade, and I don''t lack money and food. I like some weapons. If Han Taishou can take out the right weapon, I can accept it reluctantly. It can be regarded as resolving the contradiction between you and me. "


    "Hoo


    Han Xuan was relieved.


    As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his heart was seized, as if hanging in mid air.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, I feel at ease.


    Zhang Xiu has been paying attention to Han Xuan''s expression changes. Seeing that Han Xuan''s face looks relaxed, she shakes her head in her heart. The reason why he made such a proposal was that he had been harsh on Han Xuan just now, but now he took it with care to form a gap, which would make Han Xuan feel better.


    People are like that.


    After suffering, suddenly get a little benefit, you will feel very happy.


    Zhang Xiuxian beat Han Xuan with a big stick, constantly attacking Han Xuan, making Han Xuan afraid. In such a premise, Zhang Xiu casually give a sweet jujube, will let Han Xuan obediently cooperate.


    Zhang Xiu''s manipulation of Han Xuan is nothing to be proud of.


    He is able to control Han Xuan''s emotions, but he feels that this is a lesson from the past.


    The more so, the more we should learn from it.


    This is the same as the principle of killing people. You control people''s minds, but there may be times when you are manipulated, so the more careful you are, the more you should improve yourself.


    Han Xuan is full of joy at the moment.


    He doesn''t have any more pressure.


    Han Xuan stood up and said happily, "don''t worry, I don''t have much food and money, but I have many weapons. I have a large collection of weapons in my arsenal, which you can choose. "


    "Come with me


    Han Xuan feels that the big stone in his heart has fallen to the ground, and takes Zhang Xiu to the armory.


    Han Xuan has a large collection of weapons.


    There are knives, guns, swords, halberds, gold helmets and silver armour, sticks and axes, and all kinds of weapons. They are placed everywhere. At a glance, they are dazzling and can''t be seen.


    Zhang Xiu walked among them and looked around to find out the weapons in the arsenal.


    After seeing it all over again, Zhang Xiu was not very satisfied.


    Although Han Xuan has a lot of weapons in his collection, they are only good. There are few weapons that can enter Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Han Xuan saw Zhang Xiu''s look and was afraid that Zhang Xiu could not find a suitable one. He quickly asked: "there are many weapons here, but none of them are satisfactory?"


    "Not so good!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Han Xuan''s eyes turned and suddenly said, "there is still a weapon in the Treasury. On the body of the gun, there is an inscription of "overlord" written in Xiaozhuan. The whole body is forged with fine steel. The head of the gun is sharp and everything can''t be broken. "


    "It weighs 50 Jin."


    "Its length is more than ten meters."


    "It''s said that this is the weapon used by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu. It''s called Bawang gun."


    "But Xiang Yu is too far away. I''m inclined to believe that this overlord gun was imitated by later generations. Even so, the overlord gun is extremely rare. "


    Han Xuan said, "it was given to me by the general of the army by chance."


    Zhang Xiu eyes a bright, asked: "where?"


    Han Xuan said, "it''s inside the Arsenal!"


    At that moment, Han Xuan led Zhang Xiu to the depth of the armory. When he reached the innermost part, he pushed aside some weapon racks. He was surprised to see a long silver gun standing on the weapon rack, which was ten feet long and nine inches long.


    The sharp point of the gun, flashing cold light.


    There are red tassels on the head of the gun. The existence of red tassels seems to have a touch of blood color. It seems that they want to choose people to eat.


    At a glance, Zhang Xiu took a fancy to the gun.


    He reached out and held the gun.


    It''s cold and comfortable.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly launched her force, took out the long gun from the weapon rack, and crossed the air. Zhang Xiu holds the gun in both hands, and her arms work hard. With the shaking of the gun, the tip of the gun flickers, and only a few cold lights flicker, showing a sense of cold killing.


    Zhang Xiu gun tip a turn, aim at the room neutral on the ground beam column to poke.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp spear point, poke in the beam, as if into tofu, easy penetration, no stagnation and obstruction. Zhang Xiu drew out the gun and looked at it carefully. She also noticed the small seal script on the gun, which has the word "overlord".Maybe, this is really Xiang Yu''s weapon.


    Zhang Xiu came up with such an idea.


    Jingzhou is not only the place of Western Chu, but also Xiang Yu''s hometown. For Zhang Xiu, no matter whether Xiang Yu has used this gun or not, he likes it.


    As an expert with a gun, Zhang Xiu can distinguish the quality of overlord gun. The overlord gun in his hand is better than the golden spear used before.


    The golden spear with tiger head was made by Zhang Ji.


    The material and sharpness of Hutou golden gun are good, but its weight is a little lighter for today''s Zhang Xiu. This overlord gun is most in line with Zhang Xiu''s current strength.


    Because after Zhang Xiu came back, his strength improved a lot.


    Martial arts, more breakthrough.


    Han Xuan saw a smile on Zhang Xiu''s face, and his heart fell to the ground. He asked, "do you still like this overlord gun, prefect Zhang?"


    "Good, good!"


    Looking at the gun in his hand, Zhang Yixiu couldn''t put it down.


    "Hoo


    Han Xuanchang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "if Zhang Taishou likes it, it''s best. This gun is in my hand. It''s a pearl covered with dust. If it''s used by Zhang Taishou, it''s also worth the money. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a gun: "thank you very much, but Zhang Xiu is not respectful."


    Han Xuan said, "it should be."


    After a pause, Han Xuan said, "I''ll hold a banquet right away. How about practicing for Zhang Taishou?"


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered, "you must be elite and obey me when you mobilize 300 soldiers. Tomorrow morning, they will escort me northward. When I arrive in Nanyang, they will withdraw. The enmity between you and me is over. "


    "No problem!"


    Han Xuan answered without hesitation.


    Han Xuan was also relieved that he could eliminate the contradiction with Zhang Xiu. He promised: "please rest assured that 300 soldiers will arrive outside Huang Zhong''s house on time tomorrow morning."


    "Well, that''s it!"


    Zhang Xiu holding the overlord gun, turned and walked out.


    Out of the armory, Zhang Xiu straight out of the house.


    Han Xuan personally sent Zhang Xiu to the gate, watched Zhang Xiu leave, then took a long breath. At least, Zhang Xiu was stabilized and let go.


    He felt very tired.


    Talking with Zhang Xiu is really too tired and anxious. Han Xuan really doesn''t want to meet Zhang Xiu again.


    At this time, a servant reported that sun min had been beaten by 20 soldiers and left the palace.


    Han Xuan didn''t go to detain him.


    As far as Han Xuan is concerned, sun Min has no value at this time, and he is too lazy to solicit any more. What''s more, he took sun min as a scapegoat, and sun min must be resentful.


    Han Xuan is not willing to use such a person.


    Han Xuan goes to the room where Han Hu is. He starts to cover his head and scolds Han Hu, so that Han Hu can no longer fight Zhang Xiu. In Han Hu''s eyes, Han Xuan leaves.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun and returns to her residence.


    Huang Wan and Huang Xu have been sent away.


    Deng Zhan also left.


    Huang Zhong was alone in the yard. When he saw Zhang Xiu coming back, he saw that Zhang Xiu was holding a big gun in his hand and asked, "the Lord''s gun is good. Where did you find it?"


    Zhang xiudao: "Han Xuan''s compensation!"


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said what happened in Han Xuan''s mansion.


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong said with emotion: "Han Xuan, at some point, is a prefect, but he is fierce and fierce. He is soft but afraid of hard. He is brave but not resourceful. He is not worthy of being a prefect. But just like this, the Lord can use the power of Han Xuan to deal with the dark pile of Jiangdong. "


    "It''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu has a smile on her face.


    It is Han Xuan''s stupidity that gives him room to operate. If Han Xuan is wise and brave, he will be very dangerous in Linxiang county.


    Zhang Xiu rubbed the overlord gun in her hand and said, "Hansheng, let''s try the sharpness of the overlord gun. You use your long knife, I use the overlord gun. Let''s have a try. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong is ready to respond.


    He turned to enter the room and came out with a long knife. He took off the cover of the long knife and put it in his hand. Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "please move, Lord."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He didn''t despise Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu at all. He didn''t look arrogant in his eyes. As soon as he shook the overlord''s gun, he quickly took the position of Huang Zhong''s heart.


    Huang Zhong swung a knife to fight back.


    Two people fight, you come and I go, instantly fight ten moves.


    Just listen to Ding Ding Ding Ding''s impact sound, continuously ring out, knife light gun shadow crisscross back and forth, two people in a twinkling of an eye fight nearly a hundred moves.


    "Stop! Stop


    After nearly a hundred fights, Huang Zhong suddenly stops.


    Zhang Xiu immediately stopped and asked, "Han Sheng, how can he suddenly stop when he is having a good fight?"His fight with Huang Zhong was simply a contest between the skills of sword and gun. After all, it was a contest, not a fight, so they didn''t fight. Under such a premise, both of them have convergence, so the fight is hard to separate.


    In a short period of time, there is no way to decide the outcome.


    Huang Zhong looked bitter and said in a deep voice, "Lord, you have enjoyed yourself. But my knife is miserable. If you look at the blade, it has left a few soybean sized dents. The humble Dao is also a steel Dao. It''s tough and sharp, but it can''t be carried in front of your overlord gun. If you go on fighting, you''ll have nothing to do with your humble position, but the sword will be useless. "


    Zhang Xiu looked carefully and saw that Huang Zhong''s blade did leave a dent.


    It''s all caused by the impact.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu thought that the overlord gun was probably used by Xiang Yu.


    Otherwise, it''s impossible to be sharp.


    Zhang Xiu put away the overlord gun, also no longer fight, and Huang Zhong said tomorrow morning north thing.

 Chapter 229

    Linxiang County, a residence in the west of the city.


    This house is neither grand nor luxurious. The only advantage is that the house is very large, covering more than ten mu. From the outside, the house is very common, but there is a world inside.


    There are all kinds of pavilions, rockeries and flowing water.


    In the backyard, there''s the school yard.


    The whole house was decorated like a military camp, with three steps for a post and five steps for a sentry post.


    In the study.


    A middle-aged man is reading a book.


    In his early thirties, he is not tall, with sharp eyes and eyebrows, and has an extraordinary bearing.


    His name is Wu Jing.


    He is sun CE''s uncle and the younger brother of the late Sun Jian''s wife, Mrs. Wu. After Sun Jian was killed in the early years, sun CE joined Yuan Shu, and Wu Jing followed Yuan Shu''s lead. He was appointed by Yuan Shu as the governor of Guangling to take charge of Guangling for Yuan Shu.


    At the beginning of this year, Yuan Shu became emperor in Shouchun, and established his own country.


    Sun CE wrote a letter to Wu Jing, asking Wu Jing to leave Yuan Shu.


    After sun CE''s persuasion, Wu Jing gave up his position as the prefect of Guangling and returned to sun CE''s command. Wu Jing''s original plan was to fight with sun CE. Ling you and Zhou Zhong died in Xiangyang. Sun CE thought that there was no one in Jingzhou to take charge of the situation, so he arranged for Wu Jing to lurk in Linxiang county to dispatch all the actions of Jingzhou dark pile.


    "Bang! Bang


    There was a knock on the door, from outside the room.


    Wu Jing put down the books in his hand and said, "come in."


    With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a warrior in black quickly entered. He bowed respectfully to Wu Jing and reported: "your honor, the news has just come from the prefecture."


    "What''s the news?" Wu said


    The warrior in Black said: "after Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts leaked, Zhang Xiu went to the prefect''s house to see Han Xuan in person. After the two sides talked, Han Xuan sent Zhang Xiu away in person."


    Wu Jing frowned and frowned.


    Not long ago, he got information that Zhang Xiu appeared in Linxiang county and clashed with Han Xuan''s nephew Han Hu.


    Between Zhang Xiu and Han Xuan, it was very unpleasant. Even Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts, under the investigation of Wu Jing, also found that Han Xuan arranged people to spread out. When Wu Jing learns about Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts, he immediately mobilizes his soldiers to prepare for Zhang Xiu. But Wu Jing didn''t plan to fight in the city. After all, there are many people in the city.


    Wu Jing''s plan is to wait for Zhang Xiu to leave Linxiang county and ambush her on the way. He not only wanted to avenge the death of Ling you and Zhou Zhong, but also for Ling Cao.


    Wu Jing knows about Ling Cao.


    Ling you, Ling Cao and Zhou Zhong all died in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    It''s a blood feud.


    Han Xuan deliberately spreads Zhang Xiu''s news. Wu Jing knows what the purpose is. It''s to pass the news on to him so that he can deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Both sides are hostile.


    But now, Han Xuan personally sent Zhang Xiu away, a close look, what is the reason?


    Wu Jing didn''t know the reason and asked, "can you find out more details?"


    The Bushi in Black said, "if you want to know more about it, you have to wait until night to know."


    "Wait a second."


    There was a sharp look in Wu Jing''s eyes.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, but he was not impulsive. He was ready to make up his mind before moving. Wu Jing used to be a person who served as a prefect of a party. He was decisive, wise and resolute. He was not an impulsive person.


    He is patient enough.


    The samurai in black retreated, and Wu Jing sat alone in the room thinking about things.


    He pondered why han Xuan was so anxious.


    That''s what he''s most puzzled about.


    Does Han Xuan want to unite with Zhang Xiu to deal with him?


    No!


    Han Xuan didn''t have this idea.


    Wu Jing has been in Linxiang County for some time and has already found out Han Xuan''s character. Although Han Xuan was the prefect of Changsha County, he was a timid man. Especially when it comes to Han Hu, Han Xuan is unlikely to unite with Zhang Xiu.


    This is Wu Jing''s judgment.


    After thinking about it, Wu Jing couldn''t figure out the reason, so he had to wait quietly.


    Time goes by little.


    In the evening.


    Finally, the news came back.


    This time, a letter was sent back, which clearly recorded the affairs of the prefecture.


    After reading the letter, Wu Jing understood it thoroughly. He learned that Zhang Xiu went to the prefect''s house to ask for a crime, learned that Han Xuan made an apology, and arranged 300 soldiers to escort Zhang Xiu north.


    Wu Jing sneered at this.


    Han Xuan is too stupid and incompetent.


    Just like Zhang Xiu, Han Xuan is forced to admit his guilt and apologize to Zhang Xiu.


    It''s too weak.


    Wu Jing didn''t pay much attention to Zhang Xiu''s search for a guard. In his eyes, three hundred soldiers of Changsha County were not worth mentioning. Such 300 people can''t even stop the 50 warriors under his command.


    After thinking about it, Wu Jing said, "come here, please come to Zhou Fu."Zhou Fu is a child of the Zhou family.


    Like Zhou Zhong, he was brought out by Zhou Yu. Not only that, Zhou Fu is Zhou Zhong''s elder brother. He is a strong and powerful man under Wu Jing''s command.


    After a while, Zhou Fu enters.


    When Zhou Fu learned that Zhang Xiu was in Linxiang County, he wanted to kill her immediately and avenge his brother.


    Wu Jing said: "according to the news just received, Zhang Xiu will take Huang Zhong north to Yuyang county early tomorrow morning. After he left Linxiang County, we ambushed on the way. As long as it''s no longer in Linxiang County, Han Xuan can''t control it. We can get out of it calmly. "


    Zhou Fu said, "my Lord, why don''t you do it tonight? Even if it''s tonight, Han Xuan doesn''t know the situation, we can get away easily. "


    "It''s not that easy."


    Wu Jing shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is a man with excellent martial arts. Can he be easily killed? In addition to that, we have to add Huang Zhong, who has excellent martial arts skills. "


    "Both of them are tiger generals."


    "If we want to kill them, even if we lay an ambush, we have to siege them with the lives of many soldiers to kill them. Under such a premise, killing Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong will consume a lot of time. "


    "If Han Xuan arrives with his troops, it will cut off our retreat."


    "At that time, even if we kill Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, Han Xuan will take them. Only after leaving Linxiang County, Han Xuan can''t predict where we are hiding. Only in this way can he retreat after killing Zhang Xiu. "


    Wu Jing explained in detail.


    On hearing this, Zhou Fu felt a little reckless and said, "your honor is wise!"


    Wu Jing said: "you immediately transfer 300 soldiers. Later, Ben will go out of the city with you to ambush outside the city."


    Zhou Fu opened his eyes and said, "are you going too?"


    "I must go!"


    Wu Jing eyes sharp, said: "just you go, I don''t trust."


    Zhou Fu said: "my Lord, even if you ambush Zhang Xiu, you don''t need 300 soldiers. According to the general, one hundred soldiers are enough. What''s more, even if Zhang Xiu is powerful, the last general is also a Veteran General in the army. Even if he can''t defeat Zhang Xiu, he can at least hold him down. At the end of the day, Zhang Xiu will be held back, and the rest of the people will besiege Huang Zhong. As long as they win, it''s as easy as killing Zhang Xiu. "


    Wu Jing snorted and scolded: "Zhou Zhong''s martial arts are also very strong. But in the end, Zhou Zhong died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Zhou Fu, you must not be careless, and you must not be dazzled by anger. "


    "It''s going to be sober."


    Zhou Fu answered in a voice.


    Wu Jing big sleeve a brush, way: "Lion Fight rabbit, still need to go all out.". Zhang Xiu is not a rabbit, but a tiger. To deal with him, we must do our best. I have already made a decision. You don''t have to persuade me to act according to the plan. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Fu didn''t say much. He turned back.


    Wu Jing sat alone in his study and carefully rehearsed the plan of the ambush. When he was convinced, he put on his armor and sat in his study, waiting for the news from Zhou Fu.


    Two quarters of an hour later, Zhou Fu came to the study and said, "my Lord, everything is ready. We can start."


    "Let''s go!"


    Wu Jing stood up and strode out.


    He came to the school yard in the backyard, looked at the black warriors standing one by one, said some words to boost morale, and ordered: "let''s go!"


    The voice of the people is down.


    The sound of hasty footsteps rang out, and everyone left quickly with Wu Jing. They lurked in the city for quite a long time and had a way out of the city. After leaving their houses, they soon left Linxiang county.

 Chapter 230

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong get up early and do morning exercises.


    At the end of morning exercise, when the two just began to have breakfast, the soldiers arranged by Han Xuan arrived. The three hundred Jiashi and their top helmets were all elite under Han Xuan''s command.


    Han Xuan this time in order to ensure the safety of Zhang Xiu, but also go all out. He was worried about what happened to Zhang Xiu, which would endanger the safety of Changsha County, so the elite were transferred to ensure that Zhang Xiu could go north safely.


    After breakfast, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong put their weapons under the carriage, packed their bags, and asked the two soldiers to change their clothes and sit in the carriage.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, on the other hand, put on the robes of the soldiers and disguised themselves as generals.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order to start.


    They soon left the county seat of Linxiang county and headed north all the way.


    From the north of Linxiang County, the official road is not wide, because the water system in Changsha county is developed, and the road is rugged, just like a small path. Fortunately, Zhang Xiu''s group is not many, and it''s easy to get on the road.


    About thirty miles to the north.


    By this time, it was far away from the county seat of Linxiang County, and the road was much wider, no longer rugged and southbound.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong are on the alert, for five miles to the north is the range of Yunwu Mountain.


    Yunwu Mountain is a mountain in Linxiang county. It is neither big nor steep, but there are many trees and lush trees in it. Although the terrain is not steep, it is easy to lay an ambush due to many jungles.


    Huang Zhong has been living in Linxiang county and knows the terrain of Linxiang county like the back of his hand. One day yesterday, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong made a detailed deduction, understood the topography along the way, and predicted the location of Jiangdong''s possible ambush.


    Yunwu Mountain is the first ambush point.


    As the distance gets closer and closer, Zhang Xiu also sends orders to keep all the soldiers on guard.


    Now, at the foot of the cloud mountain.


    Three hundred warriors in black, led by Wu Jing and Zhou Fu, lie in ambush on both sides of the road. They set out from the county last night, arrived at Yunwu Mountain early, and then laid an ambush.


    "Rustle!"


    In the woods, footsteps came.


    A warrior in black quickly came to Wu Jing and reported: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu''s team is here. Around the carriage that Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong took, there were 300 elite soldiers to protect them. Two quarters of an hour at most, and they''ll arrive. "


    "I see!"


    Wu Jing waved his hand and said, "explore again!"


    "Here it is


    The warrior in black retreated, and Wu Jing ordered: "the whole army is on guard, ready to take orders."


    The soldiers passed on the order.


    The warriors lying in ambush on both sides of the road all gathered up their spirits, one by one clenched their long bows and concentrated on preparation.


    Although Wu Jing is an ambush, he doesn''t intend to kill directly. His plan is to use bows and arrows to disrupt the formation to protect Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, and then lead the troops to kill them.


    In this way, we won the first World War.


    In fact, Wu Jing didn''t pay attention to Han Xuan''s soldiers. He was afraid of Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong.


    These two are tiger generals.


    Even if Zhou Fu was there, he could fight against the enemy himself, but Wu Jing didn''t relax his vigilance.


    Time goes by.


    Zhang Xiu and his party are getting closer to the foot of Yunwu Mountain.


    "Wheel! The wheels


    The axle turned and the carriage moved slowly forward.


    Three hundred soldiers trampled on the ground, making a sound and moving forward quickly. Zhang Xiu is not far from the carriage. He doesn''t carry the overlord''s gun. For the time being, he has a sword hanging from his waist. As Zhang Xiu walked, she was also paying attention to the situation ahead.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu looked up.


    Not far ahead, he saw birds hovering over the mountains.


    There was a flash of light in his eyes.


    That''s the ambush point.


    Zhang Xiu will not think that this is the bluff of Jiangdong people, the other side does not need to be so, must be a real ambush. He touched Huang Zhong with his arm and motioned him to look into the air ahead.


    After yelling, Huang Zhong nodded in response and immediately said, "listen carefully. In case of an ambush, everyone will retreat to the carriage to protect its safety."


    "Yes


    Three hundred soldiers answered.


    These soldiers belong to Han Xuan, but they are ordered by Han Xuan to obey Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. They dare not disobey the orders of Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong.


    The team continued on their way.


    After a while, I arrived at the area where Wu Jing was lying in ambush.


    Wu Jing no longer hesitated in his eyes and ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows from the forest.


    Arrow like rain, straight to Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong and others.


    "Set up a fight, defend!"


    Huang Zhong immediately gave the order. After he gave the order, he quickly went to Zhang Xiu and pushed her to the side of the carriage. The rest of the soldiers also drew their swords, retreated to the side of the carriage, waved their swords and knocked the bows and arrows.Although the situation was a bit chaotic, and some soldiers died or were injured by arrows, most of them retreated to the carriage to resist the rain of arrows.


    After all, Huang Zhong made arrangements early.


    The soldiers were not in a mess.


    Dense bows and arrows shot three rounds in a row, killing nearly 80 soldiers. The rest of the soldiers, who were all elite of Han Xuan, blocked the attack of bow and arrow with weapons and armor.


    Wu Jing hid in the forest. Seeing that the bow and arrow had lost their function, he no longer hesitated and ordered: "kill!"


    He took the lead and killed directly.


    "Kill


    Zhou Fu came out with a long knife.


    As for Zhang Wanxiu, Duan Xuefu can''t bear his revenge. His brother died miserably in Zhang Xiu''s hands. He didn''t even take his bones back.


    Three hundred warriors in black came out and poured into the official road.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong see this, look calm, there is no panic.


    They stayed by the side of the carriage, not in a hurry to fight, but always observing the evolution of the situation. Wu Jing and Zhou Fu led the soldiers, killed them and began to attack.


    "Kill, kill!"


    Wu Jing gave a loud order.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Zhou Fu yelled, his face full of ferocity. Although he didn''t know Zhang Xiu, he had a preconceived idea that Zhang Xiu was in the carriage. He was carrying a knife, eager to immediately take off Zhang Xiu''s head and pay homage to his dead brother.


    Although the soldiers arranged by Han Xuan were elite, they were hard to resist in front of Wu Jing''s three hundred warriors. The fighting lasted only a quarter of an hour, and at least 50 people were killed or injured.


    Defense, close to collapse.


    Zhang Xiu saw the chaotic situation, and there was no panic. He had taken out the overlord gun under the carriage, looked at Huang Zhong and said, "Hansheng, have you found the commander of Jiangdong soldiers?"


    He didn''t do it before, he was watching.


    He discovered Wu Jing and Zhou Fu.


    Huang Zhong nodded and said, "Lord, I''ve made sure. There are two generals in this group of Jiangdong soldiers. One of them, armed with a long knife, is majestic; the other, with sharp eyes and eyebrows, is armed with a long gun. "


    Zhou Zhong used the knife and Wu Jing held the gun.


    They are exposed to Huang Zhong.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "now that we have determined the other party''s general, it''s time to act. If we don''t, the situation will collapse. Your target is the man with the knife. I''ll kill those who use guns. I''ll kill these two. I''ll defeat each other. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun and rushes out. At this time Zhang Xiu, no longer hide their own martial arts, Overlord gun in hand, he constantly forward.


    The barrel of the gun swept down the soldiers.


    The sharp point of the gun pokes into the Black Warrior''s body, just like the bean curd, and runs through his body easily.


    In a short time, Zhang Xiulian killed more than ten Jiangdong soldiers. When he got to Wu Jing''s body, the overlord''s gun trembled, and the tip of the gun flashed a little cold star in the air, instantly enveloping Wu Jing.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    At this moment, the killing is all over the place.


    Wu Jing saw Zhang Xiu killed, he did not know Zhang Xiu, but at this moment, also nervous. Knowing that his opponent''s martial arts skills were not low, he quickly waved his big gun and held it up.


    "Bang!"


    There was a crash.


    Wu Jing''s face suddenly changed. He held the gun''s hand and kept shaking, with an unbelievable look on his face.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu, looking surprised.


    Who is this?


    It was so powerful.


    This is definitely not Han Xuan''s person. There is no one under Han Xuan''s command who has such excellent martial arts skills.


    "Who are you?"


    Wu Jing''s eyes, there is a trace of speculation.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of banter and said coldly, "you want to kill me. Now I''m in front of you, you can''t recognize me."


    "Are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Wu Jing was a little surprised.


    Zhang Xiu took a carriage to the north, but the door curtain of the carriage had been hanging down. It was clear that no one came out, and even the door curtain of the carriage had not been lifted. Wu Jing thought rotation, suddenly understand. Neither Zhang Xiu nor Huang Zhong took a carriage.


    They did it on purpose.


    So it''s easy to do it.


    Zhang Xiu no longer talks with Wu Jing. He swings the overlord''s gun and takes advantage of Wu Jing''s numb palm to attack again.


    The long gun was cut off as soon as it turned in the air.


    "Hoo


    When the barrel of the gun falls, the long gun is like a stick. When it falls with a roaring sound, the sound is extremely shocking.

 Chapter 231

    Wu Jing was photographed by the downfall of the overlord''s gun. He didn''t dare to take it lightly. He summoned all his strength, grasped the gun in his hand and went up to the top.


    "Dang!"


    The weapon hit, the sound was harsh.


    Under the fierce impact, the gun barrel in Wu Jing''s hand kept shaking. Under the shock of shaking force, Wu Jing holds the palm of the gun, numb and painful, and his arm is extremely soft and sour.


    But Zhang Xiu was not affected at all and looked as usual. Especially others found that Wu Jing was far behind him in strength, so they gave up the subtlety of shooting and adopted the method of reducing one force to ten meetings to attack with brute force.


    This is the most direct attack.


    Simple, rough!


    But it works.


    One shot fell down again. After Wu Jing resisted, he not only felt numb in his arms, but also felt unstable and stepped back to release the force.


    Zhang Xiu is the full strength of the attack.


    When the overlord''s gun was swung up and smashed down, the goose''s thick gun was powerful and powerful.


    Wu Jing''s heart and mind were united. Seeing the power of this shot, he was much more overbearing than before, and his heart was secretly bitter.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    He is not an opponent at all, but Zhang Xiu moves one move after another, which makes him unable to avoid. He has to go all out to block the gun.


    As soon as Wu Jing''s gun came up, the overlord''s gun fell down.


    The sound of impact came from Wu Jing''s head.


    Wu Jing''s big gun broke at once.


    Wu Jing''s gun is made of white wax. Its flexibility is excellent. It can be made of steel or soft. It is an excellent gun. But this kind of gun, in front of the overlord gun, is unbearable.


    The overlord gun is forged with fine iron. It has strong strength and no casting. After breaking the white wax pole, the strength did not weaken much, but still fell to Wu Jing''s head with overwhelming force.


    Wu Jing was so scared that he lost his mind. In a hurry, he twisted his body and let his head avoid the overlord gun. But his head avoided the overlord gun, but his shoulder couldn''t.


    "Bang!"


    It''s a dull crash, and it''s coming.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Wu Jing''s mouth. The look on his face became ferocious and full of pain. His left shoulder was crushed by the impact of the overlord gun, and blood immediately spilled from his shoulder and dyed his clothes red.


    Zhang Xiu side body, Overlord gun back, gun tip from the ground across an arc, then again gun tip in front, suddenly toward Wu Jing chest stab past.


    The point of the gun is as fast as lightning.


    Wu Jing''s left shoulder was smashed, one of his arms hung down, without any strength. He had only his right hand to hold the gun, but the barrel of the gun was broken, and his right hand couldn''t hold the gun, so he could only retreat quickly.


    Overlord gun, follow like a shadow.


    The tip of the gun is like a poisonous snake spitting a message, which makes Wu Jing''s skin feel cold.


    Wu Jing retreated a step slower after all. The tip of Zhang Xiu''s gun was close to Wu Jing''s body, so he stabbed it. Wu Jing exhausted the whole body strength, the body moves, once again avoids the key.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into Wu Jing''s right shoulder.


    One shot pierced the entire right shoulder.


    The blood splashed and the severe pain made Wu Jing scream again, and his cheek turned pale. His body began to tremble slightly because of the pain in his right shoulder.


    Zhang Xiu took back her long gun and fired it again.


    A shot out, no accident, easily stabbed into the chest of Wu Jing can not escape.


    One shot through the heart.


    As the tip of the gun was drawn out, Wu Jing''s body was overflowing with blood, but his eyes were gradually dim.


    At this moment, Wu Jing''s eyes were full of reluctance.


    He wants to kill Zhang Xiu.


    In the end, it turned into a slaughter in turn, and he died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    He wants revenge.


    In the end, he died again in Jiangdong, adding another soul.


    Lost!


    The price of failure is death.


    When Wu Jing was dying, he suddenly had an idea in his heart to remind sun ce that before he had enough strength, he should never provoke Zhang Xiu again. This is a very cruel person.


    He did not despise Zhang Xiu. He brought three hundred warriors in black, but he was defeated.


    Unfortunately, he couldn''t deliver the message. When the last ray of glory in his eyes passed away, Wu Jing''s eyes were completely dark, and the whole person was in the dark without any consciousness.


    Plop!


    Wu Jing''s body fell to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu shoots Wu Jing and looks at Huang Zhong not far away. At the moment, Huang Zhong and Zhou Fu are fighting. Huang Zhong also has the upper hand and is beating Zhou Fu.


    In front of Huang Zhong, Zhou Fu didn''t even have the strength to fight back.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes were sharp. He swung his sword in his hand and cut it in the air. The sharp light of the sword seemed to cut through the sky and the earth, leaving only the light of the sword.


    Zhou Fu felt his scalp numb.


    He didn''t dare to be careless, but at the moment when the two swords collided, the power of the sea poured out from Huang Zhong''s blade and reached Zhou Fu''s hand.He snorted, and the tiger''s mouth was torn immediately. Even he couldn''t hold the sword, and the sword was knocked out directly.


    A bright light, near the body.


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong''s knife continued to fall and fell on Zhou Fu''s shoulder. The blade of blowing hair and breaking hair starts to split the skin from the shoulder and finally cuts out from the lower abdomen.


    On Zhou Fu''s chest, he left a wound nearly a foot and a half long.


    The wound was three inches into the flesh, cutting the viscera of Zhou Fu.


    "Poof!"


    Zhou Fu opened his mouth and spat out blood. He fell on the ground with his head up, without any breath.


    He didn''t understand until he died.


    How can Huang Zhong, who is not famous, be so powerful?


    Zhou Fu''s martial arts are better than Zhou Zhong''s. He can even make ten moves in sun CE''s hands. But in front of Huang Zhong, it is so unbearable, even if it is Zhou Fu, did not expect to die such a scene.


    As soon as Zhou Fu died, Huang Zhong found that Zhang Xiu was not far away and led the soldiers to fight.


    Previously, it was the Jiangdong Samurai in black who dominated.


    Now, the samurai in black has no advantage.


    In particular, the death of Wu Jing and Zhou Fu made the morale of the samurai in black drop. Even though they were still attacking, most of the soldiers had no desire to fight and lacked the fighting spirit to fight.


    Even if there are many people, they are still losing.


    On the contrary, the soldiers led by Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, though fewer in number, began to counterattack with great momentum.


    At the moment of fighting, the samurai in black killed and injured more than 50 people.


    The warrior in black, who was the leader, did not dare to fight any more and ordered: "withdraw!"


    The crowd retreated quickly.


    Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to cover up and kill for a while, then he did not continue to pursue and ordered the soldiers to stop. He simply arranged for people to count the casualties of Han Xuan''s soldiers, and then asked the captured warriors in black about the ambush. He knew that Wu Jing and Zhou Fu were coming, so he was no longer in charge of the matter.


    He called the captain in charge of Han Xuan and said, "send someone back to the county immediately and inform Han Xuan to collect the body. The bodies of these Jiangdong warriors are all thanks. If you want him to collect the body, you can ask Liu Biao for help. "


    "Here it is


    As soon as the captain in charge had a light in his eyes, he immediately arranged to go on.


    He also saw the opportunity to ask for merit.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "next, you don''t have to escort, we ride north by ourselves."


    In Zhang Xiu''s plan, the reason why han Xuan sent troops was to attract people from Jiangdong under the guise of protecting Han Xuan''s soldiers. Now, after killing Wu Jing and Zhou Fu, he doesn''t have to go north any more slowly. He can go at full speed, and he doesn''t need to be escorted by soldiers.


    The captain was also relieved.


    Zhang beixiu felt too dangerous to go with him.


    Xiaowei said, "take care of yourself all the way."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, then and Huang Zhong led their horses, took the weapons they carried, and drove their horses north.

 Chapter 232

    As Zhang Xiu went all the way north, the news of Wu Jing, Zhou Fu and others being killed also quickly spread back to Linxiang county. Han Xuan immediately asked the soldiers to escort Wu Jing, Zhou Fu and the prisoners back to Linxiang county.


    Han Xuan was even more delighted to learn that he had killed Wu Jing.


    Wu Jing is sun CE''s uncle.


    This news report to Liu Biao''s desk, Liu Biao will certainly reward Han Xuan. Especially this time, he was even more happy that he had killed more than a hundred Jiangdong piles.


    Han Xuan thought that hundreds of Jiangdong soldiers gathered in the small Linxiang County, and he was thrilled.


    If this group of people revolts, he is also in danger.


    For Han Xuan, Zhang Xiu''s killing of these people also eliminated the internal troubles.


    Han Xuan didn''t hide the news, but publicized it in a big way. This news was quickly obtained by the hidden Jiangdong pile, and then quickly spread to Jiangdong.


    Yuzhang County, Poyang Lake water village.


    This is the place where the Jiangdong water army was stationed and trained. Sun CE occupied Jiangdong, swept all the counties, and almost wiped out the people who resisted him. But Sun CE''s inside information is far less than that of Liu Biao and others.


    Sun CE relied on the natural danger of the Yangtze River, so he actively trained the Navy.


    Zhou Yu is responsible for training the Navy.


    He is the governor of Jiangdong.


    During this time, sun CE also trained the water army with Zhou Yu in the Poyang Lake water stronghold.


    The relationship between sun CE and Zhou Yu is excellent.


    Although they are not blood brothers, their relationship is far better than blood relatives.


    On this day, in the water village.


    A tall and thin figure, with hands on his back, stands aloof.


    This man is sun CE.


    His sword eyebrows are in the temples, his eyes are bright, and his spirit is pressing. It gives people the feeling that his edge will be exposed.


    This is sun CE.


    Now he is only in his early twenties. He has made such a big foundation. He is a overlord. At this time, sun CE, looking at the soldiers driving the boat in the water village, showed a smile on his face.


    The soldiers in the water stronghold often have to perform martial arts, and now they are doing it.


    Next to sun CE, there was a young man with broad collar, gorgeous clothes and Jinxian crown. He was beautiful, with a sword eyebrow and a bright eye, red lips and white teeth.


    He is tall and slender, like a fairy.


    He is Zhou Yu.


    Jiangdong beauty Zhou Lang, young ambition, heroic, handsome extraordinary.


    Zhou Yu stared at the soldiers who were constantly training, and said slowly, "Bofu, Yuan Shu was the emperor in Shouchun, and he built his own country. In the current situation, Yuan Shu seems to be powerful. In fact, he is the enemy of the country. "


    Sun CE said: "Gongjin is right."


    Zhou Yu continued: "I infer that Yuan Shu can''t last long. In particular, Cao Cao''s orthodoxy, he is likely to attack Yuan Shu. At that time, we will go north to Yangzhou and strive to pick up a piece of meat from Yangzhou to enhance our strength. "


    Sun Qixiao said: "this Yuan Shu got the imperial seal. He had it in a low key. He thought that the destiny of heaven was in him. He called himself Emperor and founded the country. It is said that if you want to make it die, you must first make it crazy. Now Yuan Shu is completely crazy. "


    Zhou Yu said: "in troubled times, there are many such people."


    Sun CE continued: "in fact, I''m not very afraid of Yuan Shu. It''s impossible for Yuan Shu, who has great ambition and few talents, to attack Jiangdong. "


    "Jingzhou, I''m not at ease."


    "All of a sudden, a Zhang Xiu appeared in Jingzhou, and repeatedly fought against us. First, Zhou Zhong and Ling you died in Zhang Xiu''s hands, and then Ling Cao died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Three generals have died miserably."


    "It has a huge impact on us."


    Sun CE''s eyes narrowed and said, "we have been in Jingzhou for many years, but in a short time, we have lost so much power. Even if it is me, I am unwilling."


    Zhou Yu nodded and said, "I''ve been paying attention to the news about Zhang Xiu."


    "After he entered Nanyang County, he defeated Huang Jin, killed Xiongnu and retired Cao Cao. It''s not easy. We should be careful when we are against Zhang Xiu. But to my inference, Zhang Xiu is not a long-standing generation. Once Zhang Xiu tries to seize Jingzhou, she will conflict with Liu Biao. "


    "Our task now is to infiltrate Jingzhou and pave the way for the future."


    Zhou Yu said: "for the time being, let Zhang Xiu and Liu Biao fight. Only when they fight can we have a chance."


    "That''s true!"


    Sun CE nodded in agreement.


    In his heart, he actually had the idea of fighting with Zhang Xiu. It''s just that there''s Liu Biao between Jiangdong and Zhang Xiu. Sun CE doesn''t have a chance to fight Zhang Xiu. Moreover, he''s so busy that he has no time to challenge Zhang Xiu to prepare for the next battle with Yuan Shu.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, there were soldiers shouting and running quickly.


    He took out a letter from sun CE''s sleeve and put it in his hand.


    After sun CE took it, he didn''t look at it. He gave it to Zhou Yu and said, "Gongjin, what''s the news?"


    Zhou Yu took out the envelope, scanned it carefully, and exclaimed."What happened?" Sun said


    Zhou Yu handed the letter to sun CE and said, "the letter says that Wu Jing and Zhou Fu died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Zhang Xiu suddenly appeared in Linxiang county. When Zhang Xiu left Linxiang county and went north, Wu Jing and Zhou Fu ambushed him halfway, but he was killed by Zhang Xiu. "


    After listening to Zhou Yu''s words, sun CE quickly scanned them himself.


    When he finished, he clenched his fist.


    Eyes, full of blood.


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu. He killed three of my top generals, and now he''s killing two of my top generals. It''s Zhang Xiu again. If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, I swear not to be a human being. "


    Sun CE''s eyes were cold and angry.


    At this moment, sun CE could no longer suppress his anger. He turned to Zhou Yu and said in a loud voice, "Gongjin, I''m going to attack Changsha County, then Liu Biao, and finally Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu killed my beloved general and my relatives. It''s a bitter feud. "


    When Zhou Yu heard the speech, he said nothing.


    He didn''t speak freely.


    Sun CE continued: "my father died early. Apart from our sons, my uncle is the only brother left. Now even my uncle died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. If I don''t take revenge, I shouldn''t be a son. "


    Zhou Yu looks at Sun CE quietly.


    He still didn''t speak.


    Sun CE once again said: "Gongjin, you come to deploy troops, we attack Changsha County. Han Xuan is a fool. He thinks he can defend Linxiang county. In fact, I don''t want to attack him. As long as we attack with all our strength, we can definitely break the rule of Changsha County. "


    Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu wants revenge. I don''t stand in the way. If I were Bo Fu, I would take revenge from your standpoint. So I will not stand in the way of this war. Bofu, you can send troops to kill him. If you die on the battlefield, I will stabilize the situation in the rear and take good care of your family. "


    When sun CE heard Zhou Yu''s words, he drew his lips.


    Zhou Yu said that in irony.


    The look on Sun CE''s face was a little embarrassed. He and Zhou Yu share the same temperament. He knows Zhou Yu well. Zhou Yu obviously disagrees with him when he says so.


    Zhou Yu also said, "I also support Bofu''s attack on Han Xuan. You can destroy Han Xuan first, then fight Liu Biao, and finally fight Zhang Xiu. I hope that when you fight with Zhang Xiu, you can capture her alive so that you can get revenge. "


    Zhou Yu''s words made sun CE''s face hot.


    Originally, sun CE had a lot of anger, but now, after Zhou Yu''s words, sun CE''s anger gradually subsided and continued: "Gongjin, those are living lives. They are dead, but we are indifferent to them. Is it not cold to the hearts of the people? "


    "The current situation is not the best time to attack Jingzhou," Zhou said. No matter who dies, it''s the same. Even if I die in the hands of Liu Biao, I can''t attack Jingzhou. "


    "The battle with Yuan Shu is the most important."


    "Only by exterminating Yuan Shu and ruling by the Lord, can we have the foundation of dominating one side."


    Zhou Yu said, "if my lord really wants to attack Jingzhou, I will not oppose it."


    Sun CE suddenly lost his temper.


    He said with a smile, "Gongjin, I''m wrong."


    Zhou Yu''s face was cold, and his face was full of dignified expression. He said in a deep voice, "Bo Fu, you have a great temperament, but you are also impatient. I want you to make it clear that you are not alone now, but the head of one side, with heavy responsibilities on your shoulders. "


    "On your shoulders, you carry the sustenance of your family."


    "When you go out, whether it''s the old lady or the second young master, you are very worried. Everyone, I hope you will be invincible and come home soon. "


    "On your shoulders, you carry the trust of the soldiers."


    "Soldiers are loyal to you, fight for you, and are brave enough to die. They are not born to like fighting, but they are forced to go to the battlefield. As the Lord, you should restrain yourself, give them hope and give them a chance to go home. "


    "On your shoulders, you carry the hope of countless people in Jiangdong."


    "Thousands of people live in Jiangdong. They all depend on you for a living. Because of you, the war in Jiangdong has gradually subsided, no longer affected by the war, no longer worried about being plundered. "


    "But if you want to have something, everything will come to nothing."


    Zhou Yu''s words were extremely heavy, and he said, "so I hope you can think twice before you make a decision, instead of being rash and impulsive, acting willfully and doing things according to your preference."


    "Gongjin, I''ve been taught."


    Sun CE smiles. He has no air in front of Zhou Yu.


    He can''t refute, he can only admit defeat.


    Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said, "our strength is weak and our foundation is not stable. We must be cautious in every step, and we can''t be impulsive. Bo Fu, it''s not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. When we attack Jingzhou in the future, we will have a chance to kill Zhang Xiu. When the time comes, we can get revenge. "


    "Good!"


    Sun CE nodded.


    He has no way to refute Zhou Yu''s words, but can only agree with Zhou Yu''s suggestion.

 Chapter 233

    When Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong went north together, the news that Zhang Xiu appeared in Changsha county also spread to Xiangyang City. The people did not find this news strange, nor did they raise any public opinion.


    The news spread to Liu Biao.


    When Liu Biao learned that Zhang Xiu had sneaked into Jingzhou, his face became serious.


    In my eyes, I have a cold look.


    Liu Biao is both wary and afraid of Zhang Xiu, but he needs Zhang Xiu to guard the north of Jingzhou. So every move of Zhang Xiu will affect Liu Biao''s nerves.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s combat effectiveness is bursting.


    Liu Biao was afraid that Zhang Xiu would suddenly lead his troops to Xiangyang, threatening his position.


    When he learned that Zhang Xiu had entered Linxiang county this time, he immediately arranged for people to go south to investigate Zhang Xiu''s situation and determine her whereabouts. When the news of Changsha county came back, Zhang Xiu was near Xiangyang.


    Liu Biao learned that Zhang Xiu''s news, but also understand that Zhang Xiu south, is to attract talent, the heart of the calculation opened.


    Now, he has not provoked Zhang Xiu.


    This time, Zhang Xiu entered his jurisdiction without authorization.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    At least if Zhang Xiu wants to enter his jurisdiction, he should report it in advance. But Zhang Xiu sneaks in and digs people in Jingzhou, which is the foundation of Jingzhou.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s moral failure.


    Therefore, Liu Biao is going to question Zhang Xiu. He should make Zhang Xiu realize clearly that he can''t easily enter Jingzhou area south of Nanyang County. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu will regard Jingzhou as a back garden. What''s his face?


    Liu Biao said, "come on!"


    A valet enters and salutes.


    Liu Biao said, "go and invite Cong''er to come."


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    Liu Biao has two legitimate sons, Liu Qi and Liu Cong. Liu Qi''s disposition is somewhat weak, and the opportunity changes insufficiently. It was his son, Liu Cong, who was quite astute and had his own ideas.


    Liu Biao is very fond of it.


    Moreover, Liu Biao''s wife, Cai Shi, has a good relationship with Liu Cong, especially Liu Cong, who is about to marry a woman from the Cai family. Therefore, from time to time, Cai Shi blows some pillow wind around Liu Biao.


    As a result, Liu Biao felt that his eldest son was weak and incompetent, but his second son was able to cultivate him.


    After a while, Liu Cong entered.


    Liu Cong''s looks as like as two peas at the time of his youth. His eyes were smart, and his eyes were rolling. He arched his hand and said, "son, I''ll see my father."


    Liu Biao said in a deep voice: "my father called you here to let you know something. Zhang Xiu sneaked into Jingzhou and rushed to Changsha County. He went south to Changsha county to recruit talents, and now he wants to go north to Nanyang through Xiangyang. What do you think of that? "


    When Liu Cong heard this, he thought about it in his heart.


    He knows Liu Biao''s attitude towards Zhang Xiu, and knows that Liu Biao is afraid of Zhang Xiu from the bottom of his heart.


    After a little pondering, Liu Cong said: "father Mingjian, son thought, Zhang Xiu is in Nanyang, the army strength is strong, can''t easily deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Biao said, "don''t you care about him?"


    "Of course not!"


    Liu Cong shook his head and continued: "although Zhang Xiu''s strength is strong, he enters our Jingzhou territory without asking himself. He acts stealthily, which is morally untenable."


    "The son thinks that he should take someone to stop Zhang Xiu and ask him why he entered Jingzhou without permission. At the same time, Zhang Xiu''s visitors in Jingzhou can''t be taken away. Otherwise, when the news comes out, what will the world think of his father? "


    "There are talented people in Jingzhou, but my father can''t use them. But Zhang Xiu goes to visit, actually can use. The world must wonder, "is Zhang Xiu more virtuous?"


    "This time, we didn''t offend Zhang Xiu, and we didn''t take the initiative to deal with Zhang Xiu. It was Zhang Xiu who lost morality first. We need to be accountable, and that''s right. "


    Liu Cong''s words hit the bottom of Liu Biao''s mind, which coincided with Liu Biao''s inner thoughts.


    "My son."


    Liu Biao stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "what you say is what your father thinks. However, it is not easy to use force to stop Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu is not good at stubble. We should stop him politely and politely and let him come to the prefecture. I will be held accountable. "


    "Father is wise!"


    Liu Cong gave a compliment.


    However, Liu Cong did not agree with him.


    Liu Cong thinks that Zhang Xiu is rampant and should not be allowed to sit in the big seat. However, his father was lack of decision, and he was always unwilling to offend Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu''s strength expanded to the present situation.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrogance led to her sneaking into Jingzhou.


    This is unforgivable.


    Liu Cong did not say these words.


    Liu Biao''s big sleeve brushed and said, "you know what your father thinks. It''s up to you to stop Zhang Xiu. You go to the army to find wenpin, and ask him to mobilize 100 soldiers to go to the official road to block Zhang Xiu, and ask Zhang Xiu to come to the prefecture for discussion. Remember, this is please, not intercept, don''t act rashly"Son, I see!"


    Liu Cong nodded.


    Liu Biao immediately wrote a letter to Liu Cong, who was asked to arrange the dispatch.


    Liu Cong went back to his yard with his handwriting.


    He arranged for Wang can to be invited.


    Wang can, who was born in Yanzhou, had great literary talent and worked under Liu Biao. But he is not respected by Liu Biao and has been idle. Liu Biaozhi heavy Liu Cong, Wang can will bet early, to Liu Cong, for Liu Cong advice.


    Wang can entered the courtyard and said, "second son!"


    "Here comes sir, sit down!"


    Liu Cong''s face was calm. He waved to Wang can to sit down.


    After Wang can took his seat, Liu Cong quickly said Liu Biao''s arrangement, and then said, "my father asked me to lead the army to stop Zhang Xiu from going north. He wanted to bring Zhang Xiu and his amiable family to the prefecture, intending to hold Zhang Xiu accountable. What do you think of it? "


    Wang can asked: "how many people are there in Zhang Xiu?"


    Liu Cong replied: "according to the information given by her father, when Zhang Xiu went north, there was only one Huang Zhong around her."


    "Huang Zhong is the one Zhang Xiu solicits."


    "Besides, there is no one."


    "In addition to inviting her father to hand over, Zhang Xiu wants to be accountable. Or, I infer that my father''s meaning is that once Zhang Xiu is tough, he will not let Zhang Xiu make friends with others. He just wants to make Zhang Xiu soft so that his father can take advantage of him. "


    "Otherwise, there are great sages in Jingzhou, father can''t use them, but Zhang Xiu can use them. How do people treat father?"


    Liu Cong expressed his true thoughts.


    Wang can''s eyes are rolling, thinking that he wants to be reused with the help of Liu Cong.


    You have to do what you like.


    Wang can knew that Liu Cong was very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu, so he didn''t say not to deal with Zhang Xiu. Such words will be denied as soon as they are said, and he will not say them at all.


    Wang can''s eyes turned, and soon he had an idea. He continued: "if there are many people in Zhang Xiu''s belt, we can''t do it. We can only ask Zhang Xiu to come to the prefecture. But now, there is only Huang Zhong around Zhang Xiu. He is very isolated. We can invite Zhang Xiu directly to the prefecture


    Liu Cong said, "what if wenpin doesn''t cooperate?"


    Wang can said: "Zhang Xiu''s blatant refusal is tantamount to disobeying Liu Jingzhou''s order. Under such a premise, the young master forcibly ordered wenpin to take Zhang Xiu, and he could not refuse. If you can kill Zhang Xiu, that''s the best. As long as Zhang Xiu died, although there was Zhang Xiu''s army in Nanyang County, even if there was turmoil, it was not enough to be afraid. It is expected that Zhou Mu will also be happy about it. "


    He gave Liu Cong the most desired advice.


    When Liu Cong heard Wang can''s words, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "those who know me, sir. I also think so. If Zhang Xiu cooperates with me, I will let him go to the prefecture. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t cooperate, I will mobilize the army and kill Zhang Xiu directly. It''s not too bad to cut first and then play. "


    In Liu Cong''s eyes, there was a light.


    He doesn''t like Zhang Xiu very much.


    Since last year, because of the strength of Zhang Xiu, Jingzhou has suffered a lot, even suffered a big loss.


    Therefore, he should aim at Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 234

    With a smile on his face, Liu Cong got up and said, "Sir, follow me to the barracks. My father ordered wenpin and 100 soldiers to cooperate. But if we want wenpin to make a move, we have to persuade wenpin. Otherwise, if wenpin doesn''t do it, things will not be done well. "


    Wang can said, "second young master, please!"


    Liu Cong big sleeve a brush, led Wang can to leave, straight to the barracks.


    As soon as he arrived at the barracks, Liu Cong went directly to the Chinese army. Only wenpin went to the school to train soldiers, but he was not in the big account of the Chinese army for the time being. Liu Cong didn''t worry. He waited quietly in the tent with patience.


    Among the generals in Jingzhou, wenpin won the support of the soldiers. He is very strict in training soldiers, but he also loves soldiers like children and can share weal and woe with soldiers. Especially others, who set an example and have excellent martial arts skills, are deeply loved by soldiers.


    Wen pin has a high prestige in the army.


    Liu Cong waited about two quarters of an hour before wenpin came back in a hurry. Previously, he got the news of Liu Cong''s arrival. Because he was busy, he couldn''t get away. He didn''t come in a hurry until he finished his work. When Wen pin saw Liu Cong, he bowed his fist and sat down in the master''s seat. He said, "what''s the instruction for the second young master to come to the army?"


    Liu Cong said, "general Wen, my father has an arrangement."


    With that, he took out the letter from Liu Biao and let Wang can deliver it to wenpin.


    Wenpin''s brow went up after reading it.


    This is an order for him to mobilize 100 soldiers to block Zhang Xiu''s way to the north on the official road. But the order, just let him block the way, did not let him attack Zhang Xiu.


    Wenpin was captured by Zhang Xiu last time. He felt sorry and ashamed. His heart, all the time, think of a snow before shame. Therefore, after returning to Xiangyang, he actively honed his martial arts skills, thinking that one day he could get revenge.


    In his heart, he wants to fight with Zhang Xiu again.


    As the chief General of the army, wenpin is well aware of the difficulty of Zhang Xiu. Once Zhang Xiu is in trouble, it may bring danger to Jingzhou and even lead Liu Biao into a dilemma.


    Wenpin was worried and asked: "second young master, is the order of the Lord really preventing Zhang Xiu from going north?"


    "Yes


    Liu Cong gave a definite answer.


    Wenpin continued: "the Lord just ordered to stop, in case Zhang Xiu forced north, and Zhang Xiu conflict, how?"


    This is not arranged by Liu Biao.


    Only let wenpin block, but did not explicitly mention in the letter whether it can be done. He gave this arrangement to Liu Cong. After all, he personally asked Liu Cong to invite Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Cong said, "if you have a chance, you should kill Zhang Xiu."


    Wenpin frowned even more.


    Such a move is likely to cause conflict. Wenpin''s heart is hoping to compete with Zhang Xiu. But wenpin''s reason tells him that once he goes to war with Zhang Xiu, the consequences may be unimaginable.


    Seeing wenpin''s hesitation, Wang can advised: "general Wen, it''s the arrangement of zhoumu to ask Zhang Xiu to go to zhoumu. If Zhang Xiu insists on not cooperating, he can only do it. You have become Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. Don''t you want to take revenge? "


    Wenpin immediately clenched his fist.


    As a general of Jingzhou, he became a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, which made Liu Biao pay a heavy price to redeem him. That was wenpin''s shame.


    Wenpin suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with."


    This time, there is only one soldier, Huang can. It''s just two people, and you have more than a hundred talents around you, enough to win. "


    "Even if you don''t worry, you can make soldiers prepare enough bows and arrows."


    "If Zhang Xiu insists on resisting, he should shoot with bow and arrow first, weaken Zhang Xiu, or even seriously injure her. Of course, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are excellent. She is not an easy person, and bow and arrow may not be able to kill him. "


    Wang can said, "after you hurt Zhang Xiu with a bow and arrow, you can lead the soldiers to capture Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong. It''s not difficult."


    Wenpin said: "second young master, I don''t suggest tearing the skin with Zhang Xiu."


    Although wenpin wants to fight Zhang Xiu.


    But he has reason.


    He is a general in Jingzhou. He can''t ignore the overall situation because of his personal indignation.


    When Liu Cong heard Wen pin''s reply, his face became cold and he said in a deep voice, "Wen pin, this is the order of my father and my son. You just carry out the order, and the rest doesn''t need to be considered."


    "If you can invite Zhang Xiu to the prefecture, I''ll go alone. Why do you need to go?"


    "The reason why my father asked you to lead the soldiers to meet Zhang Xiu with me was that he asked you to do it. You remember, you are just a general in the army, a subordinate of my Liu family. "


    "Obeying orders is your only choice."


    Liu Cong strong way: "the rest, you do not have to consider, you do not have to worry about."


    Brush!


    Wenpin''s face changed slightly.


    He is a general in the army. He is proud of himself and has done his duty of persuasion. Liu Cong didn''t listen to advice. He couldn''t help it.


    Wen pin''s face became cold, and he no longer spoke from his heart. He said faintly, "please don''t worry, second young master. But there are arrangements. Wen pin should follow the orders.""Good!"


    A happy look appeared on Liu Cong''s face.


    What wenpin thought, he didn''t care, he just wanted to win Zhang Xiu.


    "Newspaper!"


    The curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and a soldier quickly entered. He reported: "general, there is a man from outside the barracks. He came from the prefecture and asked to see the second son."


    "Please


    Wenpin asked.


    After a while, a sentinel quickly entered and reported: "second young master, just received the news, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong entered Xiangyang and are heading for Xiangyang City."


    "I see."


    Liu Cong nodded his head.


    He looked at Wen pin and said, "general Wen, it''s time to prepare. You muster the soldiers and follow me


    "Here it is


    Wenpin, with a cold face, turned away.


    After Wen pin left, Liu Cong and Wang can also left the Chinese army and waited at the gate of the barracks.


    Wang can had a little worry in his eyes and said: "second son, it seems that wenpin doesn''t want to fight with Zhang Xiu. Just now, you were a little strict with him. It''s not good for you to inherit Jingzhou in the future. "


    "No harm!"


    Liu Cong waved his hand and said, "wenpin is just a martial arts man. I have the support of the Cai family and my mother blowing pillow wind in my father''s ear. Even if wenpin has an idea, it doesn''t help. If he''s obedient, that''s all. If you don''t listen, you have a way to deal with him. "


    "Young master is wise!"


    Wang can flattered.


    Liu Cong held his head high, with an air of complacency.


    After a short time, wenpin came to the gate of the camp with his soldiers. The 100 soldiers he mobilized were all elite soldiers, many of them were grassroots generals, not ordinary soldiers.


    These people are not weak.


    One by one, his eyes were sharp and his body was full of murderous spirit.


    Liu Cong glanced at it, nodded his head with satisfaction, and said, "let''s go!"


    With Liu Cong''s command, people immediately took action and quickly went out of the barracks to Xiangyang City. After wenpin left with his soldiers, there were soldiers in and out of the camp gate frequently.


    Soon after, Liu Cong, Wen pin and others wanted to intercept Zhang Xiu, and the news spread to Kuai''s family and Kuai Liang''s hands.


    The Kuai family, the Cai family and other big families are famous families in Jingzhou. Their strength is intertwined. There are also many generals in the army, all of whom come from the direct line of the Kuai family.


    Wenpin mobilized the army, and the news couldn''t be hidden from the Kuai family.


    When Kuai Liang learns about wenpin''s action, he immediately calls in his family''s spies and asks them to go out of the city as quickly as possible to find Zhang Xiu. He tells Zhang Xiu what wenpin and Liu Cong are doing so that Zhang Xiu can respond.


    Kuai Liang can''t directly dispatch troops to help Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, the Kuai family will be exposed.


    Now is not the time to expose that the Kuai family is following Zhang Xiu. In fact, after Kuai Liang arranges someone to deliver the news, Cai Mao goes to Kuai''s home and finds Kuai Liang to discuss with Kuai Yue. He is worried that wenpin is not good for Zhang Xiu.


    Cai Mao is now on the side of Zhang Xiu, and he doesn''t want Zhang Xiu to have any problems.


    Knowing that Kuai Liang had made arrangements, Cai Mao was relieved.

 Chapter 235

    On the official road, the sound of horse''s hooves is ringing.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong are on their way quickly. They set out from Linxiang County, Changsha County, all the way north, almost without any delay along the way. In the evening, when they meet the village, they stay in the village. If it''s dark in a deserted place, take the sky as the quilt and the earth as the bed.


    Along the way, the good thing is that they have a good foundation and don''t feel tired.


    Near noon, Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu stop to rest.


    They got water nearby and began to have lunch.


    Lunch, dry food.


    Along the way, they both ate dry food, not overheated food.


    Huang Zhong nibbled at the dough cake and drank a mouthful of water. With a solemn look on his face, he said, "Lord, we have entered the boundary of Xiangyang, not far from Xiangyang City. Before that, when he was in Linxiang County, Han Xuan spread your news. I''m afraid Liu Biao also got the news. I don''t know how Liu Biao will respond to this. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "soldiers will block the water and cover the land. What''s more, Liu Biao is old and has long lost his courage. He has no plan to fight with me. Even if he has an idea, it''s mostly accountability."


    Huang Zhong said, "Liu Biao is old after all."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "Liu Biao is really old and has lost his ambition. A few years ago, Liu biaochu came to Jingzhou. With the help of Kuai Liang and Cai Mao, he had the help of the Kuai family and Cai family. He played tricks and defeated Jingzhou bandits. Now, they are old people who have lost their spirit. "


    "That''s true," Huang said


    "Da! "Da!"


    The sound of horse''s hooves came from the official road ahead.


    One person, one ride, come quickly.


    On horseback, it was Kuai Liang who arranged to come. Although he had never seen Zhang Xiu, he generally knew her age. So when he passed by Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, he stopped and asked, "but is it the prefect of Nanyang County?"


    "I am!"


    Zhang Xiu stood up and answered.


    However, he clenched the overlord gun in his hand and made a defensive gesture. On the way, Zhang Xiu was very alert when she met someone looking for him.


    The man turned over and dismounted. He took out a letter from his sleeve and said respectfully, "I''m under the command of Kuai Liang. I''ll send a letter to Zhang Taishou. Please have a look at it."


    Zhang Xiu took it over, opened the letter and quickly scanned one side. After reading the letter, he had a clear look on his face and said, "go back and tell Kuai Liang, I''ll be flexible."


    "Here it is


    When they got the order, they turned over and left quickly.


    Huang Zhong asked, "Lord, what news has the Kuai family sent?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "the message from Kuai Liang is that Liu Biao arranged his second son Liu Cong and wenpin to take more than 100 soldiers to Xiangyang''s official road to stop me from going north. The letter said that Liu Biao intended to invite me to the prefecture to talk about things, but Liu Cong clearly brought the soldiers. I estimated that wenpin would probably do it if I refused to go. "


    For wenpin, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    Especially Liu Cong.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about such children.


    Huang Zhong asked: "when Liu Biao invited the Lord to the prefecture, he must have entered Jingzhou without permission. Now, Liu Biao has arranged people. How does the LORD deal with it? "


    "Fight!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles from the corner of her mouth.


    If you are not convinced, just fight.


    If you encounter obstacles, you can hit them right.


    This is the most direct way. It''s rough, but it''s simple and quick.


    Huang Zhong nodded and said, "in that case, my Lord is going to refuse Liu Biao''s invitation."


    "Of course!"


    "If we go directly to the prefecture, we will have nothing in our hands. Even if I can get the upper hand in words, it''s hard to find Liu Biao," Zhang said


    "But Liu Biao sent Liu Cong and Wen pin. They were hostages."


    "If heaven doesn''t take it, it''s the fault."


    "Even if wenpin leads more than 100 soldiers, they can''t stop us. At that time, you are responsible for capturing Liu Cong, and I will directly kill wenpin and capture wenpin alive again. "


    "Liu Biao''s son and his generals are all in my hands. I''d like to see what Liu Biao can do? I don''t want to provoke him, but if he wants to provoke me, then I can''t be blamed for being rude. "


    Zhang Xiu has a sharp look in her eyes.


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Only the fist is the biggest.


    In many cases, it doesn''t make sense. If we use our fists to handle affairs, many times we can get things done.


    This is the most helpless place.


    "Come on, don''t delay."


    Zhang Xiu ate the dry food, clapped her hands and turned over.


    Huang Zhong immediately mounted the horse, and the two rode on their way to the North quickly. Less than 15 Li to the north, Liu Cong''s checkpoint is getting closer and closer.


    Liu Cong and Wen pin were blocked in the official way, and the army was lined up.All soldiers, fighting spirit is high.


    On Liu Cong''s face, there was a look of expectation. He is looking forward to the scene of capturing Zhang Xiu alive and humiliating her. At the thought of taking Zhang Xiu, Liu Cong''s face was full of joy.


    As the sentinel constantly reported, Liu Cong knew that Zhang Xiu was getting closer and closer.


    "Here it is


    Suddenly, a soldier called.


    Liu Cong looked up into the distance and saw two figures on the official road in the distance, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong. Liu Cong rubbed his hands and said, "general Wen, let the soldiers take bow and arrow and aim at the front."


    Wenpin immediately gave an order.


    There are 20 archers kneeling on the ground, holding bows and arrows, ready to shoot forward. Shortly after, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong arrived. When Zhang Xiu stopped 20 steps away from Liu Cong, he did not go any further.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Wen pin and says: "Wen pin, what do you mean?"


    Wenpin did not speak.


    Liu Cong took the words and said coldly, "as the prefect of Nanyang County, Zhang Tai Shou entered Changsha County without my father''s order and wandered wantonly in Jingzhou. It''s against the law. My father ordered that Zhang Taishou should go to the prefecture


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to laugh.


    Liu Cong said, "Zhang Xiu, what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''m laughing that you are a yellow mouthed child. How dare you say something against the law in front of me. Even if Liu Jingzhou is in front of me, there is no reason to say that I have violated the law. If I don''t go to the prefecture, what can you do for me? "


    Liu Cong snorted, his eyes were angry, and said: "if Zhang Taishou doesn''t cooperate, don''t blame Liu Cong for his impoliteness. Swords and swords have no eyes. Bows and arrows are fired in disorder. Even if you are good at martial arts, you will be shot into a sieve. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''ll have a try. I''ll see if your bow and arrow are faster or my weapon is more powerful."


    Liu Cong''s face became cold.


    Zhang Xiu is as tough as ever, but this is exactly what he wants to see.


    Only in this way can he have a reason to go to war.


    Liu Cong said, "Wen pin, I don''t want to give an order yet."


    "Here it is


    Wen pin sighed in his heart and ordered: "Archer, three shots in a row!"


    With Wen pin''s order, twenty archers who had already pulled their bows and set up their arrows immediately let go. With the vibration of the bowstring, twenty bows and arrows pierced the air and crossed arcs in the air, then quickly went to the position where Zhang Xiu was.


    "Hansheng, kill!"


    Without saying a word, Zhang Xiu rushed forward with her gun.


    Although there are bows and arrows from the air, but Zhang Xiu is not afraid, Overlord gun swung in front of him quickly. In a flash, all the bows and arrows were swung away. No one could get close to Zhang Xiu.


    On the other side, Huang Zhong sprints with his knife, which is the same. Although there are bows and arrows near, but he cut off with his knife, where the blade passed, a bow and arrow were knocked out.


    The two spurred, but within a short distance of 20 steps, they arrived in a flash. Even wenpin''s archer''s second round of arrows had not been shot out. Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong had already arrived.


    "Kill


    Seeing this, wenpin gave an order.


    In a flash, the archer retreated and the rest of the soldiers came forward quickly.


    At this time, Liu Cong and Wang can retreated to the rear for fear of being affected.


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid but happy as the soldiers rush up to Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong. He is always not afraid of group attack. He spurted his horse. The overlord''s gun swung in the air and came close to the Jingzhou soldiers. The barrel of the gun was carrying a huge force, so he smashed the soldiers under his command.


    "Bang! Bang


    One after another, the sound of impact, constantly sounded.


    All the soldiers were knocked to the ground.


    "Zhang Xiu, take my knife!"


    Wenpin also joined the battlefield with a knife. He saw that Zhang Xiu was invincible with a overlord gun, but no one could stop him, and his face was dignified.


    Zhang Xiu is stronger than ever.


    He and Zhang Xiu are hand in hand, that time he was defeated in the hands of Zhang Xiu, although there is a suspicion of carelessness, but after all failed.


    After wenpin returned to Xiangyang, he practiced martial arts hard, and his martial arts also improved. He cut it off with a terrible blade. Only to see a dazzling light, in the air flash away, the blade to the top of Zhang Xiu''s head.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu raises the overlord gun and goes up.


    The blade splits on the barrel of the gun. Under the impact, the barrel of the gun vibrates. But Zhang Xiu''s hands work hard, and her palms hold tightly, and then she pinches the shaking barrel of the gun. Before wenpin changed his recruitment, he tried his best to go up to the top and open the blade of wenpin.


    "Wenpin, take my shot!"


    When Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun turns in the air, the point of the gun is like a poisonous dragon going out to sea, fast as lightning, piercing wenpin''s heart.


    Wenpin evaded.


    After avoiding Zhang Xiu''s shot, wenpin immediately slashes his knife and cuts to Zhang Xiu''s waist.


    Zhang Xiu raised the gun to block, and a touch of surprise appeared on her face.His martial arts have been improved.


    Unexpectedly, wenpin has also been promoted a lot. Both the strength and the speed of response of Wen pin are much faster. Zhang Xiu to the fighting spirit, swung the overlord gun, the offensive is more fierce than just now.


    Or sweep!


    Or stab!


    Or smash!


    One shot at a time, the speed is faster and faster, and the attack is more and more fierce. Under the continuous attack, wenpin from the beginning of the calm response, gradually emerged dignified look on his face, has been tired to deal with.


    His strength is weak.


    After all, wenpin''s martial arts are not as good as Zhang Xiu''s.

 Chapter 236

    Zhang Xiu and wenpin fight, the more courageous, only feel that this battle is full of vitality. His whole body is full of Qi and blood, without the slightest stagnation. His strength is endless and mighty, and his offensive is fierce and powerful.


    Wenpin''s martial arts are not as good as Zhang Xiu.


    But I can barely resist it.


    Wenpin is like a person who feeds Zhang Xiu and endures Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Just like this, the more Zhang Xiu fought, the more she was happy.


    The power of the overlord gun is getting stronger and stronger.


    Under the constant impact, wenpin''s face began to turn red, and his eyes were covered with blood. The hand holding the sword had become numb, and even could not feel the palm of his hand. He couldn''t give in, he could only resist tirelessly with his sword.


    Zhang Xiu is aware of the weakness of wenpin.


    He also did not have the idea of fighting with wenpin again. He swung his overlord gun and smashed it down again.


    Wenpin steel teeth bite tightly, lift knife grid block.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of impact is extremely fierce.


    Wenpin snorted. He suddenly felt that his Qi and blood were surging. He could no longer control his body''s Qi and blood. He only felt that as soon as his throat was sweet, he would spit out a mouthful of blood. The sword in his hand was knocked out at the same moment.


    The palm of wenpin''s hand is full of blood.


    The tiger''s mouth has already broken.


    The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand continues to fall. The power of Bawang''s gun is heavy. One shot is enough to break the tree and chop the stone. Once it falls on wenpin, it is enough to kill wenpin on the spot.


    However, Zhang Xiu was in the overlord gun down, convergence of a certain strength. The overlord gun fell on wenpin''s shoulder. With a bang, wenpin fell to the ground. Although Wen pin''s whole body seemed to be falling apart, his muscles and bones were not injured.


    Zhang Xiu won wenpin. Knowing that wenpin would not be able to fight any more, she did not take charge of wenpin and offered to shoot the rest of Jingzhou soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu is invincible with a powerful gun.


    Huang Zhong broke through the defense line of Jingzhou soldiers when Zhang Xiu rushed to kill quickly. He killed more than ten Jingzhou soldiers with his sword, and the blade came out with blood splashing.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes fell on Liu Cong.


    He took the knife and rushed forward quickly. Soon, he was only 20 steps away from Liu Cong.


    Previously, Liu Cong retreated to the rear to watch the fire from the other side, constantly cheering on the soldiers, hoping to win Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong. But he didn''t expect that wenpin was defeated in the twinkling of an eye, and was once again won by Zhang Xiu.


    The soldiers under wenpin''s command could not stop Huang Zhong''s attack.


    He''s in danger.


    "Run


    Seeing Huang Zhong killed, Liu Cong shivered. Regardless of Wang can around him, he turned around and ran back.


    He just wanted to escape.


    But at this time, he didn''t have any horses around him. He ran on both legs. Liu Cong is not diligent in all aspects and doesn''t pay any attention to grain. His running speed is very slow. Even if he runs in front of Wang can, the distance is not far.


    Huang Zhong charged quickly and soon caught up with Wang can.


    The blade in his hand turned and the blade swept forward.


    With a bang, the blade slapped on Wang can''s back. In a flash, Wang can staggered forward and fell to the ground. He fell all over and couldn''t retreat.


    Huang Zhong didn''t take charge of Wang can any more. He went straight ahead. He was on his way quickly. Soon, he came to Liu Cong''s back.


    "Die


    Huang Zhong gave a big drink.


    Its voice is powerful, just like a thunder in the ground.


    When Liu Cong heard the shouting, he looked back and saw that Huang Zhong was approaching. He had swung his long sword and cut his head off.


    "Ah


    Liu Cong screamed, his legs softened and he collapsed on the ground.


    A whiff of urine filled the air.


    He went straight to incontinence.


    Huang zhongpi''s knife stopped abruptly in mid air. Then, as soon as the blade turned, it fell to the ground and splashed with dust. He stepped forward, grabbed Liu Cong''s clothes at his neck, and walked back with Liu Cong in his hand. He said in a loud voice, "Liu Cong has been captured. Everyone will surrender immediately."


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she did not kill any more. Instead, she went to wenpin and said in a loud voice, "wenpin has been captured, and everyone kneels down to surrender."


    Two men, both captured.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of all Jingzhou soldiers, one by one had been killed, and now they were even more panicked and looked around each other. When the first soldier knelt down to surrender, the rest of them knelt down to surrender, and there was no one to resist.


    Everyone, surrender.


    Zhang Xiu looks in the eye, in the heart sneers.


    Liu Biao this time, but it is a failure, he did not go to provoke Liu Biao, but Liu Biao to hand.


    Zhang Xiu went to Liu Cong''s body and looked at Liu Cong who was paralyzed on the ground. She raised her foot and kicked him out. With a cold smile, she said: "yellow mouth child, dare to be arrogant in front of my official. You''re a prisoner now. Do you think I broke your leg? Or break your arm? Or pull out your tongue, and you''ll never be able to speak. ""No, no!"


    Liu Cong was so scared that he could not help shivering and begged for mercy.


    After all, he was only seventeen or eighteen.


    It''s too young, after all.


    Liu Cong had a look of hope on his face and quickly said, "I''m wrong, prefect Zhang. I shouldn''t have ordered the soldiers to do it. You have to spare me this time. "


    After a pause, Liu Cong looked pathetic and said again, "we are relatives. For Yueying''s sake, how about sparing me this time?"


    "Spare you?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "when you make a move, why didn''t you think of the consequences?"


    Liu Cong''s expression suddenly froze.


    His eyes, dribbling around, saw Wang can not far away, and suddenly he had a plan in mind and said: "Mr. Zhang, no wonder I''m wang can. It''s all Wang can''s efforts. I''ll do it. All blame him. The injustice has its head and the debt has its owner. If you are unhappy, just go to Wang can. "


    Wang can''s facial expression, immediately a pair of surprised appearance.


    He is loyal to Liu Cong.


    Planning for Liu Cong everywhere.


    In the end, as soon as Liu Cong met with something, he sold him directly, and even let him come out to take the blame. Such a thing made Wang can''s heart cold.


    The trust is not human!


    Wang can''s heart gave birth to such an idea.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Liu Cong''s words, he sneered. He looked at Wang can, but he didn''t deal with Wang can.


    It''s Liu Cong that needs to be dealt with.


    With the help of Liu Cong and Wen pin, Liu Biao was in trouble again.


    Instead of talking nonsense with Liu Cong, Zhang Xiu escorted Liu Cong, Wen pin and most of the Jingzhou soldiers to Xiangyang City. However, when she set out, Zhang Xiu chose a soldier from the captives and asked the soldier to go north to Xiangyang first. She told Liu Biao the news first so that Liu Biao could judge and respond.


    The troops went to Xiangyang City, while the soldiers went back to the city first.


    The soldier came to the outside of the prefecture, quickly came to the gate, looked at the porter and said, "I''m Jiang Li. I went with general wenpin to stop Zhang Xiu from going north. Go and report to the governor of the state. I have a report. "


    The porter did not dare to delay.


    After a while, the porter came out of the room, looked at Jiang Li, and said, "go, Mr. Zhou Mu will see you in the study."


    "I see."


    Jiang Li answered and quickly entered the house and went to the study.

 Chapter 237

    In the study, Liu Biao is waiting for news.


    He hoped that Liu Cong would invite Zhang Xiu to the prefectural government so that he could question Zhang Xiu. Liu Biao was full of expectation when he heard the porter say that soldiers had come to report the news.


    When Jiang Li knocked on the door, Liu Biao couldn''t wait to say, "come in!"


    Jiang Li enters and salutes Liu Biao respectfully.


    Liu Biao asked: "what''s the situation?"


    Jiang Li replied, "I''ll tell you back. The second young master and general wenpin are all captured by Zhang Xiu. The soldiers in the army suffered countless losses and were captured except those who were killed. "


    "What?"


    Liu Biao''s eyes were wide, and his face was full of disbelief.


    How is that possible?


    He asked Liu Cong to invite Zhang Xiu to avoid conflict. Today, not only the conflict, but also Liu Cong and wenpin are taken hostage, which shocked Liu Biao.


    Liu Biao Gudong swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He was flustered and asked, "how did you escape?"


    Jiang Lishan said: "tell me back, the villain didn''t come back. It was Zhang Xiu who let me pass the news and let me come back. Otherwise, the villain can''t come back. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Liu Biao heard this, he slapped him on the desk.


    His eyes were full of anger.


    It''s really disappointing that such a good thing has been done.


    "What''s going on?"


    Liu Biao''s face was full of anger.


    Jiang Li didn''t dare to hide it. He replied, "tell me, this is what happened. Together with general Wen, we stopped Zhang Xiu in the official way. After Zhang Xiu arrived, the second son asked Zhang Xiu to come to the prefecture, but Zhang Xiu refused. So the second young master ordered us to take Zhang Xiu, regardless of life and death. After a battle, general Wen was captured, and the second son fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands. "


    "Asshole, asshole, what a fool!"


    After hearing this, Liu Biao was very angry.


    He told Liu Cong to invite Zhang Xiu instead of causing conflicts. Now directly attacking Zhang Xiu is tantamount to squandering his moral advantage.


    The most important thing is that Liu Cong and wenpin become Zhang Xiu''s hostages, leaving him in the most unfavorable position.


    Liu Biao was extremely upset.


    Liu Cong messed up a good thing.


    This black sheep!


    Liu Biao scolded in his heart, waved his hand to let Jiang Li step down, and then called to the servant. He asked, "is Kuai Yue working in the government today?"


    "Yes


    The waiter replied.


    Liu Biao was relieved that if Kuai Yue did not come to the Yamen today, he would not have enough time to consult with others. Because Zhang Xiu is already on the way, he must make a decision as soon as possible.


    When Kuai Yue was in the prefecture, he had time to ask for advice.


    Liu Biao immediately ordered the servant to invite Kuai Yue. After Kuai Yue entered, Liu Biao did not dare to delay, quickly explained the situation, and said: "different degrees, Cong''er and wenpin became hostages and angered Zhang Xiu. How do you say to remedy it?"


    "Alas..."


    Kuai Yue sighed.


    Seeing that Kuai Yue sighed, Liu Biao was even more flustered. He said again, "don''t sigh. So far, we have to figure out a way to crack it. "


    Kuai Yue said: "for today''s sake, the Lord can only greet Zhang Xiu at the gate of the city in person, and then apologize to Zhang Xiu."


    "What?"


    Liu Biao shook his head like a rattle, and his eyes were very reluctant. He said, "I''m a herdsman in Jingzhou. I''m a Zhennan general appointed by the imperial court. I went to the gate of the city to meet Zhang Xiu. What''s my face


    Kuai Yue sneered.


    Jingzhou animal husbandry!


    General Zhennan!


    Does Liu Biao have the dignity of Jingzhou Mu and Zhennan general?


    However, Kuai Yue could not say these words. With a worried look for Liu Biao, he continued: "Lord, today''s Zhang Xiu is very powerful and can''t be easily provoked."


    "Even Cao Cao was defeated by Zhang Xiu, not to mention the Lord?"


    "Of course, with the Lord''s forces, it''s no problem to fight Zhang Xiu. But in the battle between the Lord and Zhang Xiu, the troops stationed in each county must be drawn out. If these troops are drawn out, Jiangdong will take the opportunity to invade. "


    "It''s very bad for us."


    "Originally, the relationship between the Lord and Zhang Xiu has been eased. In particular, Zhang Xiu is actively planning to go north to Guanzhong, intending to capture Guanzhong. At this critical juncture, why bother Zhang Xiu again? "


    "When Zhang Xiu enters Guanzhong, you can ask Zhang Xiu to hand over Nanyang County according to the previous agreement, and even ask him to help attack Jiangdong Sunce and eliminate Jiangdong''s threat."


    Kuai Yue said: "this is good, why should we add right and wrong?"


    Liu Biao was regretful, but he was soft hearted. When he heard Kuai Liang''s words, he was even more regretful.What''s Zhang Xiu doing?


    Liu Biao sighed and said, "this is the end of the matter. We must come up with a solution. Is there no other way? As my envoy, you have full power to meet me at the gate of the city on behalf of me. After Zhang Xiu enters the city, how about my official greeting him at the gate of zhoumu Prefecture? "


    "The true Lord Kuai


    "No!"


    Liu Biao shook his head and answered.


    Kuai Yue''s mind turned and he had a plan.


    He is not willing to force Liu Biao to meet Zhang Xiu too much, because he is a subordinate of Liu Biao and loyal to Liu Biao, so he must consider Liu Biao.


    Kuai Yue''s face was soft and said, "Lord, do you think this is OK? I will go to the gate to meet Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu is willing to enter the city, it is the best. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to enter the city, she will return to the prefecture. I''m afraid you''ll have to meet me at the gate. After all, the second son and wenpin are still in Zhang Xiu''s hands. "


    "Stupid Liu Cong!"


    Liu Biao scolded angrily.


    He asked Liu Cong to invite him, but Liu Cong directly ordered a strong attack, which was stupid.


    Liu Biao thought of the arrested man and felt that there was no other way. He nodded and said, "this is the end of the matter, and it can only be like this. It''s hard for you. To welcome Zhang Xiu, we must let her enter the city. "


    "I''ll do it


    Kuai Yue answered immediately, but he added: "it''s just Zhang Xiu. You know it''s very difficult. When Zhang Xiu first arrived in Xiangyang last year, he refused to go to the gate of zhoumu Prefecture without you. Now, I''m afraid it''s the same. The only way to be humble is to do your best, do your best and listen to the destiny. "


    Liu Biao listen to this, in the heart helpless, but can only say: "I know, you try your best."


    Kuai Yue said, "I''ll go now."


    "Go


    Liu Biao waved his hand.


    When Kuai Yue left the prefecture, he called his retinue, handed him a letter and said, "go back to the prefecture immediately, ask elder brother to arrange for people, and spread the news about Zhang Xiu''s capture of Liu Cong and Wen pin."


    "Here it is


    The retinue must be ordered to leave first.


    Kuai Yue did this in order to create momentum for Zhang Xiu and create public opinion against Liu Biao. He wants everyone to know about Zhang Xiu''s taking Liu Cong.


    Kuai Yue''s ultimate goal is to let Liu Biao meet him at the gate of the city.


    This is to further weaken Liu Biao''s reputation and enhance Zhang Xiu''s prestige. Just imagine that Zhang Xiu is the prefect of Nanyang County, and Liu Biao is the herdsman of Jingzhou. When Zhang Xiu arrives in Xiangyang, Liu Biao, as the herdsman of Jingzhou, has to meet him personally. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is powerful and Liu Biao is incompetent.


    This is Kuai Yue''s plan.


    Kuai Yue rode on his horse and galloped all the way. When he arrived at the gate, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong had not arrived. After all, with dozens of prisoners, Zhang Xiu''s speed was slower.


    About a quarter of an hour later, a group of people appeared on the official road outside the city gate.


    Impressively, Zhang Xiu and his party.


    Kuai Yue has a look on his face. He already knows that Zhang Xiu has recruited Liu Ba, Li Yan, Huang Zhong and others. Most of the talents recommended by his elder brother Kuai Liang have gone to Nanyang County in the north.


    This is the credit of the Kuai family.


    When Zhang Xiu arrives, Kuai Yue takes a glance. Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu are in the front, wenpin and Liu Cong are in the rear, and all the detained Jingzhou soldiers are in the back.


    Kuai Yue saluted and said respectfully, "I''m Kuai Yue. At the order of Liu Jingzhou, please come to the prefecture to have a talk. Liu Jingzhou thinks of Zhang Taizhou very much. He has prepared a banquet and wants to help Zhang Taizhou clean up the dust. "


    When he spoke, he blinked for Zhang Xiu to refuse.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is like a mirror. As soon as she sees Kuai Yue''s action, she understands Kuai Yue''s intention and hums: "Liu Biao miss me? I''m afraid I want to die. "


    Kuai Yue said: "Zhang Taishou is joking."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if Liu Biao misses me, why don''t he come to meet me in person. Mr. Kuai, Liu Biao asked Liu Cong to take me first, and now he sent you to invite me. How do you make me believe him? Go back and tell Liu Biao that if he comes to meet me personally, I won''t go into the city this time. "


    Kuai Yue gave a look of approval.


    He just indicated with his eyes that Zhang Xiu understood completely.


    Kuai Yue looked calm and said, "Mr. Zhang, I''m busy in government affairs. I can''t help myself. So as soon as I got the news from Zhang, I arranged for me to meet him. "

 Chapter 238

    Zhang Xiu understood Kuai Yue''s meaning, that is to let Liu Biao meet him, weaken his prestige and lose his face.


    He looked very serious and said coldly, "Mr. Kuai, if Liu Biao doesn''t come to meet him, I won''t enter the city. This time, Liu Biao arranged for his second son, Liu Cong, to attack me. Provocation came first. If he doesn''t come to meet me, I will escort Liu Cong and wenpin to Nanyang County. You report immediately. If Liu Biao doesn''t come, I''ll be ready to leave. "


    Kuai Yue said falsely: "Zhang Taishou, why do you need to..."


    Zhang Xiu interrupted: "don''t say it again!"


    Kuai Yue made a helpless look and said, "please wait a moment. I''ll go into the city and report to my Lord."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    After Kuai Yue left, Zhang Xiu found a place outside the city to sit down and wait.


    Kuai Yue hurried back to zhoumu Prefecture. He saw Liu Biao in his study. He looked embarrassed and said, "Lord, I just met Zhang Xiu. He doesn''t want to enter the city. I have to let him meet him in person. If the Lord doesn''t go to meet him, he will go north to Yuyang county. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Liu Biao was furious when he heard the news.


    He has always been very polite, but today he has been abusive several times, and his breath is uneven.


    Liu Biao is a herdsman in Jingzhou.


    If you look at the world, there are several princes who have the power to one side.


    He doesn''t want to lower his figure to meet Zhang Xiu, but Liu Cong and wenpin are in Zhang Xiu''s hands. If he doesn''t care, his son and his general will be taken away by Zhang Xiu.


    This is Liu Biao''s dilemma.


    Kuai Yue''s eyes were deep, and he continued: "it''s very sad to see wenpin caught. Estimate, he and Zhang Xiu contest, certainly hurt. Although the second young master is in good condition, he is also in a mess. "


    When Liu Biao heard this, his insistence was broken and could not be stabilized any more. He sighed, "just go. I''ll meet Zhang Xiu myself."


    Kuai Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"


    "Wise?"


    Liu Biao himself laughed and shook his head helplessly. He said: "I regret it now. If I had known today, I would not have planned to blame Zhang Xiu. I would have thought that I didn''t know Zhang Xiu was in Jingzhou and let him go north. It''s unnecessary to add to the trouble. "


    Kuai Yue comforted: "now that this is the case, my Lord can only cheer up and try to get the second young master and wenpin back. With Zhang Xiu''s temperament, I''m afraid she won''t give up easily. The Lord should be prepared. "


    Liu Biao also agrees with Kuai Yue''s analysis.


    Every time I deal with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu has never suffered a loss and has taken advantage of it.


    "Let''s go!"


    Liu Biao said again.


    They went out of the yard and came to the gate.


    According to Liu Biao''s plan, he was going to take a carriage, but Kuai Yue suggested: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is impatient. If he goes by carriage, he will delay his time. Riding will be faster. I suggest that you ride outside the south gate. "


    "All right!"


    Liu Biao adopted Kuai Yue''s opinion.


    They rode their horses and headed for the South Gate quickly.


    But the more people went to the south gate, the more people on the road talked about Zhang Xiu''s capture of wenpin and Liu Cong. These words into Liu Biao''s ears, make Liu Biao heart incomparable anger.


    There are many more people, looking at Liu Biao and Kuai Yue, who are driving their horses.


    Looking at him, Liu seemed hot and uncomfortable.


    When Liu Biao arrived at the south gate, countless people gathered around him. One by one, people gather here to watch the excitement. The reason why the people gather here is that Kuai Liang spread the news and good people came to see the excitement. That''s why there are so many people.


    Liu Biao noticed the eyes of the people around him, frowned, and his face was even hotter.


    He always feels that people around him make a fool of him.


    Liu Biao was very impatient, and ordered: "different degrees, mobilize soldiers, expel the people."


    "Here it is


    Kuai Yue heard the speech and immediately gave the order.


    Garrison in the city gate of the garrison captain, quickly mobilize soldiers to drive people. Just like this, people are talking and public opinion is boiling. Countless people are still watching from afar.


    This makes Liu Biao feel even more shameful.


    What a shame!


    I''m too shy.


    Liu Biao took a deep breath, suppressed the feeling of discomfort in his heart, forced a smile on his face, and said, "Jiang Ping, I invite you to a banquet in the prefecture. How did you get to this point? Among them, is there any misunderstanding? "


    "Misunderstanding?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "I don''t think there is any misunderstanding. Liu Jingzhou arranged Liu Cong to send orders, and even ordered wenpin to take me. This is hard evidence. I thought Liu Jingzhou would be my uncle after I married Yueying. I didn''t expect that it would be chilling to treat me like this. "


    Liu Biao immediately smiles.


    He wanted to play the emotional card, let Zhang Xiu let people go, but Zhang Xiu a mouth, cut off his idea.His plan was broken.


    Liu Biao turned his eyes and said again, "Jiang Ping, believe it or not, I can guarantee that I have arranged Cong''er to meet you. I definitely invite you, not let people do it."


    Zhang xiudao: "since it''s an invitation, why let wenpin lead the army to stop it?"


    Liu Biao was dumb.


    In the face of responsibility, Liu Biao was unable to explain for a while.


    He is quite contradictory to Zhang Xiu, and he really wants to invite Zhang Xiu to the prefecture for accountability. But Liu Biao''s subconscious thought is that if Zhang Xiu doesn''t come, he plans to take Zhang Xiu to the prefectural government by force. He has a practical idea.


    That''s why wenpin came.


    This thought can''t be publicized in the mouth.


    After pondering for a moment, Liu Biao explained: "I asked wenpin to go to protect Liu Cong. Jiang Ping is good at martial arts. I''m afraid Liu Cong will have a conflict with you, which will put him in danger. Jiang Ping, you worry too much. "


    Zhang Xiu disdains to say: "if people don''t offend me, I''m not a prisoner. If Liu Cong doesn''t provoke me, how can I aim at him? What''s more, after Liu Cong asked a question, he ordered wenpin to do it without saying a word. He also made a gesture of life and death. He wanted to kill me. "


    Liu Biao himself was in a disadvantageous position. He could only smile and say, "Cong''er is still a child. Jiang Ping is a family. If Cong''er is wrong, don''t worry about him. "


    Zhang xiudao: "I don''t care about him, but he may not appreciate it."


    "How dare he?"


    Liu Biao raised his voice and said, "if he dares to be ungrateful, I will break his legs."


    After a pause, Liu Biao said, "how can Jiang Ping be willing to release Wen pin and Liu Cong? If you have any conditions, just put them forward. What I can do, I will be satisfied. "


    This is an apology.


    When he said this, Liu Biao felt uncomfortable.


    Originally, he wanted to hold Zhang Xiu accountable.


    But now, he has to apologize to Zhang Xiu and pay a price.


    The gap is too big.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind turns and knows that she can''t fight Liu Biao completely, because at the critical moment of attacking Guanzhong, he must ensure the stability of the rear.


    After holding it, you have to put it down.


    We need to ease the relationship.


    Zhang Xiu said: "what my uncle said, just as you said just now, is a family. One family, not two. However, Liu Cong is so reckless that he deserves to be punished and put in prison for one month. "


    "No problem, no problem!"


    Liu Biao replied with a smile.


    He was happy and assured: "please rest assured that a month''s imprisonment will not be less than a day. I will punish him severely for his disobedience. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as for wenpin, he fell into my hands again. It is reasonable that I should put him to death. But wenpin, after all, is your uncle''s person. It''s OK to release Wen pin and the rest of the soldiers. I have two conditions. "


    Liu Biao said: "what conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "first, Wen pin and his soldiers are all responsible for 50 army staff and are fined for half a year."


    "No problem!"


    Liu Biao answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at wenpin at the back of the room, and saw that Liu Biao was ready to reply, but she sneered in her heart.


    Wenpin is loyal to Liu Biao.


    But they were treated so harshly.


    Even at the critical moment, wenpin was directly dealt with by Liu Biao. How cool is this?


    This is exactly what Zhang Xiu wants to achieve.


    Let Liu Biao handle wenpin.


    Let wenpin''s heart cool.


    Second, from now on, until this time next year, all the businessmen under Zhang Xiu''s rule will come to Jingzhou to do business, and they will not collect any tax. They will be allowed to travel between the two places


    Liu Biao laughed and said, "no problem!"


    Liu Biao''s granary is rich, and there is no shortage of money, food and taxes.


    So he agreed directly.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Liu Biao''s reply, she also laughed at Liu Biao''s stupidity. As long as Zhang Xiu''s businessmen go to Jingzhou to do business, they don''t accept taxes, which means that Zhang Xiu can use it to attract businessmen and attract countless people.


    Businessmen from both sides, Zhang Xiu area of business, will be more prosperous.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Let Liu Biao compensation for property, as well as compensation for food, for today''s Zhang Xiu, has no use. Instead, it is better to make a clause, which is conducive to the development of Zhang Xiu''s jurisdiction.

 Chapter 239

    Liu Biao felt very happy and felt that this time Zhang Xiu gave him enough face. With him now see Zhang Xiu, feel incomparably pleasing to the eye, in the heart of Zhang Xiu''s fear, at this moment, and turned into nothing, no longer worried about the threat of Zhang Xiu.


    Even, he felt that Zhang Xiu knew current affairs.


    This kid has a future!


    This is Liu Biao''s view of Zhang Xiu at the moment.


    Liu Biao immediately invited Zhang Xiu to the banquet. If Zhang Xiu didn''t go to the banquet, he would be anxious with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t refuse. He didn''t worry that Liu Biao would be bad for him. For one thing, Liu Biao didn''t have the courage, and for another, Liu Biao didn''t have the ability. He took Huang Zhong to Zhou Mu Fu for a banquet.


    This time, both the guests and the host are happy.


    It was dark at the end of the party.


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t drive all night, so she had to rest in the city. When Zhang Xiu leaves, Liu Biao invites Zhang Xiu, saying that he wants to have a night talk with Zhang Xiu, hoping that Zhang Xiu will stay in the prefecture to have a rest.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to.


    I''m afraid he can''t even sleep in the prefecture.


    Zhang Xiu knows that Liu Biao has a good attitude towards him now because he has just released Liu Cong and wenpin, which makes Liu Biao happy. But what if Liu Biao suddenly changed his mind?


    Zhang Xiu politely declined, took Huang Zhong out of the prefecture and went to Huang''s house in the city.


    He is the uncle of the Huang family.


    It''s normal to rest in Huang''s house.


    In fact, he also had a house in Xiangyang City, which was bought by Lord pound for him. It''s just that the house is deserted, only a few guys are responsible for the daily cleaning, empty and unpopular.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to live.


    When I got to Huang''s house, Huang Chengyan was also there.


    Zhang Xiu asked the housekeeper to settle Huang Zhong before meeting Huang Chengyan in her study and telling her what she had learned from her trip to the south.


    Huang Chengyan is happy to see the success of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu was chatting with Huang Chengyan, a servant reported that Kuai Liang wanted to see him.


    Kuai Liang came in the evening.


    This can hide the whereabouts.


    Huang Chengyan asks his servant to invite someone. After a while, Kuai Liang enters his study and bows to Zhang Xiu before taking his seat.


    "Mr. Zhang xiudao said," what can I do for your late night visit


    Kuai Liang replied, "I''m here late at night. It''s about wenpin. I want to report it to you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Kuai Liang said in a deep voice: "my Lord, during the day, you released Liu Cong and wenpin. Although wenpin returned to the army safely, his official position did not change, but he was blamed by the staff for 100 military staff."


    Zhang Xiu was surprised and said, "isn''t it the fifty army staff? My condition for Liu Biao is that he will be punished with 50 sticks and be fined for half a year. How come it''s a hundred sticks again. "


    "Fifty military staff, after ordinary people get it, their buttocks will definitely blossom."


    "Wenpin, with his martial arts, can resist."


    "But even if Wen pin carried the 100 soldiers'' staff, he would have to lie on his bed for ten days and a half months. Without three or five months, it is difficult to recover completely. "


    "It''s a heavy penalty."


    Zhang Xiu said: "is it true that what happened?"


    Kuai Liang replied: "at the beginning, Liu Biao didn''t intend to increase the punishment. However, according to the news, it was Liu Cong who added fuel to the story and shirked the responsibility on wenpin, which led to wenpin being punished. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Liu Cong is not responsible. When he was caught by me, he shirked his responsibility and shirked it on his counselor Wang can. "


    Kuai Liang said, "what the LORD said is true."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and suddenly said: "Sir, when he mentioned wenpin, is he going to plan wenpin?"


    "Yes


    Kuai Liang replied solemnly.


    He is not in Zhang Xiu''s side, but is to be strong, to play a decisive role.


    In this way, the Kuai family has a more important position, so when there is a little chance, Kuai Liang will actively plan for Zhang Xiu.


    For himself!


    Also for the whole Kuai family.


    Zhang Xiu''s face came up with interest, and asked, "how do you plan to employ the secretary?"


    Kuai Liang replied, "if you want to plan for wenpin, you have to understand wenpin''s character. It''s crucial to explain the general situation of wenpin for the Lord. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Kuai Liang said: "wenpin is a real Jingzhou native who came from a poor family. Before Liu Biao arrived in Jingzhou, he was not successful. He was just an ordinary man. "


    "After Liu Biao arrived in Jingzhou, he was promoted to wenpin and made to take charge of the army. In just a few years, Wen pin became a general in the army. If we say that the person Liu Biao values and trusts most is not Cai Mao, not Kuai Yue, or other people, it is Wen pin. "


    "He is Liu Biao''s most trusted person."


    "Wenpin''s character is loyalty first. It is impossible to change what he has decided. He is loyal to Liu Biao and is determined. It is almost impossible for him to change his family. ""Wenpin is extremely loyal."


    Kuai Liang continued: "the original plan of humble position, did not want to plan wenpin. But today, Liu Biao rewarded wenpin with a hundred military staff. Instead of dealing with Liu Cong at all, Liu Biao aggravated the treatment of wenpin, giving the humble position an opportunity. "


    "From the beginning, wenpin tried to stop Liu Cong and didn''t want Liu Cong to order him to do it."


    "It''s Liu Cong''s request."


    "All the soldiers in the army know about it."


    "The order was given by Liu Cong, but in the end, there was nothing wrong with Liu Cong, but wenpin became the culprit. As a result, many officers and soldiers were dissatisfied with the situation and held grievances one after another for Wen pin. "


    Kuai Liang said with a smile: "it''s an opportunity to operate at this time. It''s just a humble position. I don''t know what my Lord''s impression of wenpin is, so I came to ask for instructions at night. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "wenpin is a wise general who has an overall view and good martial arts skills. Such a person, I hope to be able to recruit under his command


    "In fact, in front of Liu Biao during the day, when I proposed terms to Liu Biao, I considered asking for a job, but I finally gave up the idea of asking Liu Biao."


    "On the one hand, Liu Biaozhi attaches great importance to wenpin, which is a great general he relies on. On the other hand, as you said, wenpin is really loyal to Liu Biao, which is hard to shake. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so I didn''t ask for wenpin''s conditions, just let Liu Biao punish wenpin. If you can find a way, it''s the best. "


    Kuai Liang said with a light smile: "it''s not the right time to solicit employment."


    "We must let wenpin''s heart cool."


    "In fact, the humble plan is simple, which is to constantly make wenpin dissatisfied with Liu Biao. In particular, Liu Cong regarded Wen pin as a pig and dog. It is not difficult for Wen pin to be disappointed with Liu Biao and Liu Shi. "


    "If the Lord approves, he will be ready to take a humble position."


    Kuai Liang, with an air of planning for Zhang Xiu, said, "even if it''s difficult, it''s man-made that wins."


    Zhang xiuxu said: "if you can make wenpin attached to Jingzhou, it is tantamount to completely overhead Liu Biao. It''s even easier to enter Jingzhou in the future. I''m looking forward to the result of my husband. "


    Kuai Liang said: "you should do your best in your humble position."


    After a pause, Kuai Liang said: "the Lord still needs to be careful about Liu Cong. Although Liu Cong has done bad things, he is deeply loved by Liu Biao. Moreover, Cai''s pillow blowing style is even more popular. Once Liu Cong is hostile to the Lord, it will have some influence on the Lord''s guild."


    "Just Liu Cong, not enough for fear."


    Zhang xiuxiao said: "Sir, Liu Cong is the best entry point when you want to plan a literary career. You arrange people in the army to spread a little public opinion, saying that Liu Cong hates Wen pin''s incompetence and fails to capture me. "


    "Liu Cong doesn''t fight. He has his own thugs. If he wants to please Liu Cong, he will deal with Wen pin."


    "That''s easy."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "besides Liu Cong, you just need to spread the news that after Liu Cong was locked up, he always wanted to revenge. Liu Biao now, again and again, again and again in my hands to eat shriveled, he did not fully grasp, dare not easily move. Under such circumstances, Liu Biao will suppress Liu Cong and will not let Liu Cong do it again. We don''t have to worry about Liu''s watch. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord, this move is enough to deal with Liu Cong."


    After talking about Liu Cong, Kuai Liang stopped staying and left in a hurry.


    After seeing Kuai Liang off, Zhang Xiu returns to her study.


    Huang Chengyan said, "Jiang Ping, you have the help of Kuai Liang. In Jingzhou, the king of Wen has Jiang Shang and Liu Bang has Zhang Liang. Kuai Liang has too much energy and is quite smart. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is because Liu Biao can''t use his talents. If Liu Biao can make Jingzhou work, it won''t be so. I can get the loyalty of the Kuai family. It really helps a lot. "


    He and Huang Chengyan said a lot, and also said about Huang Yueying. He went to the room to have a rest late at night.

 Chapter 240

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu had breakfast early in the morning and took Huang Zhong to leave Xiangyang for the north. They were very fast on their way. In a short time, they left Xiangyang and entered Nanyang County.


    The news of Zhang Xiu''s return to Nanyang was quickly sent back by spies.


    As soon as the news spread, local officials were relieved, because Zhang Xiu was the backbone.


    When Zhang Xiu is here, the situation will be stable.


    Without Zhang Xiu, there would be fewer pillars.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Yuyang County, she also entered the city for a rest.


    On the one hand, Zhang Xiu went to the city and asked about Liu Ba and Li Yan. They had already arrived in Yuyang county and both worked in the prefect''s office. With two people sharing the government affairs, Xu Shu was much easier.


    Zhang Xiu told Xu Shu and others about sending merchants to Jingzhou to do business tax-free, and let Xu Shu and others arrange it.


    On the other hand, it is about the settlement of Huang Xu and Huang Wan, who must say hello in advance.


    After everything was arranged properly, Zhang Xiu went to the backyard to visit Huang Yueying, who was pregnant, and Cao Jie, who was married to the mansion. After all, Cao Jie has been living in the house since she married.


    Cao Jie and Huang Yueying get along quite well.


    On the one hand, Huang Yueying is a big woman, so she has to be tolerant, which is the secular requirement for a good wife. On the other hand, Cao Jie is very clever and eloquent. He gets along well with Huang Yueying.


    Zhang Xiu visited the two and stayed for a short time. After half an hour, she left in a hurry and took Huang Zhong to the north.


    This way, straight north.


    From Yuyang county to Wuguan, it took Zhang Xiu only five days. Zhang Xiu took Huang Zhong into the barracks, and immediately summoned Pang Tong, Chen Dao and others to introduce Huang Zhong to the public, so that Huang Zhong could get familiar with people.


    After the general introduction, Zhang Xiu asked: "Shiyuan, can you send back the news of Wenhe?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    Pang Tong said: "my Lord went to Jingzhou, and the time he spent was too short. It was only about one month after all. At such a time, Mr. Wen he has no result yet. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "then we can only wait for a while."


    Pang Tong continued: "we have inquired about the situation of Wuguan, and the garrison of Wuguan is very common. Even if you attack hard, you can win. Are we going to attack by force? "


    "It''s not urgent for the time being," Zhang said


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, soldiers entered.


    The soldier originally wanted to report to Chen Dao, but when he saw Zhang Xiu, he reported directly: "general, a soldier came out from Wuguan and sent a letter from commander Jia."


    "Pass it up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The soldier quickly handed over the letter, Zhang Xiu took it and quickly scanned it in his hand.


    Pang Tong couldn''t wait to ask: "Lord, what news has Mr. Jia sent back?"


    Chen Dao and Huang Zhong look at Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked a little serious and replied: "the letter says that as soon as Wenhe entered Guo Si''s army, he met Wu Xi, a subordinate of Guo Si, who was rebellious. If it had not been for Ganning''s protection, Guo Si would have died."


    "Now, Gan Ning is protecting Guo Si and retreating to Wuguan."


    "Wenhe means that let''s occupy Wuguan first and help Guo Si arrive safely. Now there are more than 3000 Xiliang troops around Guo Si. Moreover, Wen he tested Guo Si, and he was willing to surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu said the contents of the letter.


    With a smile on his face, Pang Tong confidently said: "in that case, we can send troops. Although there are soldiers stationed in Wuguan, the defense is not strict. It''s not too hard to force in. "


    "There''s no need to storm!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "the Xiliang army stationed in Wuguan is Guo Si''s man. Moreover, I was also born in the Xiliang army, which was a certain deterrent. When we arrived at Wuguan, we threatened them with words and tried to win Wuguan without a single soldier. "


    Pang Tong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "pull out camp, go to Wuguan!"


    "Here it is


    When Chen got the order, he quickly mobilized the army.


    The army packed their bags and set out for Wuguan.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is not far from Wuguan. It was only a short distance of several miles. In less than half an hour, Zhang Xiu''s army arrived outside Wuguan.


    Wuguan, established in the spring and Autumn period, was called shaoxiguan, and changed to Wuguan in the Warring States period.


    The city is built on a relatively flat highland between the canyons, with the majestic and steep Shaoxi mountain in the north and juejian in the south. The river is surrounded by the East, West and south. The city tower is nearly two kilometers long. The city wall is built with earth and is slightly square.


    Between the East and the west of the tower, each opened a door, wrapped with bricks and stones. On the west gate, there is the word "Sanqin fortress" and on the east gate, there is the word "Wuguan".


    Inside the pass, the road is also rugged.


    Large scale cavalry can''t go side by side, or even in narrow places, they can only go on their own.This is the South fortress of Guanzhong.


    Its geographical location is very important, and it is the main road connecting Guanzhong and Jingzhou.


    Now the soldiers stationed at the checkpoint are Guo Si''s troops. It''s just that there are not many troops stationed in the city. There are only a thousand soldiers, and they are all old and weak.


    These years, Guo Si''s life is hard.


    No matter in terms of food and grass, or money, there is no succeeding power, so the soldiers under his command are not effective enough.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived outside Wuguan, the soldiers on the tower became nervous.


    They know Zhang Xiu.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji led the troops from Wuguan to Jingzhou.


    At that time, countless people ridiculed Zhang Ji.


    He thought that Zhang Ji had no choice but to enter Jingzhou.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is back.


    The name of Zhang Xiu is known all over the world.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward. He put on his armor and said in a loud voice: "listen to the people on the tower, it was Zhang Xiu, the general of Zhennan. Guo Si was betrayed by Wu Xi and was in danger. Guo Si sent a letter to the general, willing to submit to the general, and asked the general to enter the pass. Now, open the gate at once. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words clearly spread to the city tower.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is the shadow of a famous tree. Once the name is put out, it can produce a certain deterrent force.


    Moreover, Zhang Xiu himself is in the Xiliang army, which is a valiant general.


    Now, it''s even worse.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu said that Guo Si was betrayed by Wu Xi, and the soldiers who belonged to Guo Si immediately got into chaos, and a swarm of bees began to run into the city. Many people did not want to surrender.


    However, there are also people who want to stay.


    Some soldiers gathered in the city and opened the gate.


    "Creak!"


    A dull voice sounded, the gate of Wuguan was opened, and the soldiers knelt down and asked Zhang Xiu to surrender.


    These soldiers who surrendered to Zhang Xiu didn''t doubt Zhang Xiu''s words at all. Because Guo Si''s current situation is getting worse day by day.


    I can''t even pay for the army.


    The food and grass are not picked up.


    Under such circumstances, as soon as Zhang Xiu''s army arrived outside Wuguan, the hearts of Guo Si''s soldiers were dispersed. Those who should escape and those who were willing to stay had no resistance.


    Zhang Xiu frowned at the surrender of the Xiliang soldiers. The soldiers of the Xiliang army in front of them were all thin, black, listless and powerless.


    It''s all cowards.


    There''s no elite.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of the surrender soldiers for the time being. She ordered: "Huang Zhong, lead 1000 elite soldiers to occupy Wuguan."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong was ordered to dispatch troops quickly.


    In a very short time, Huang Zhong won the martial arts pass and controlled the whole pass. Under this premise, Zhang Xiucai took the surrender of the Xiliang army and settled down in the pass.


    Zhang Xiu gives Huang Zhong the task of reorganizing and surrendering to the Xiliang army. In addition, Zhang Xiu also appointed Huang Zhong as General Li, who was at the same level as Chen Zhi. After all, Huang Zhong had to be right in his name if he wanted to unify the army.


    Huang Zhong''s official position directly surpassed Huang Zhao and others and became the main general in the army.


    Huang Zhongben is a general in the army.


    As soon as he took office, he reorganized the military affairs and reorganized the surrender soldiers. Only when Huang Zhong was too busy to touch the ground, several generals headed by Huang Zhao and Zhang Shi came to Zhang Xiu''s room on the tower.


    When they saw Zhang Xiu, they were all indignant.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter with you coming to see me together?"


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Huang Zhao when you look at me and I look at you. Now Huang Zhao is one of the main generals in the army, and is also valued by Zhang Xiu. He can be called the leader of the Xiliang army.


    Huang Zhao thought about it and said, "Lord, we are here for one thing. Huang Zhong was directly appointed as General Li because he failed to make any contribution. I''m afraid it''s hard to convince the public. "


    The corners of Zhang Xiu''s mouth make her smile.


    When Chen Dao was arranged before, because Chen Dao was the cavalry commander of Langya camp alone and was established from scratch, he did not encounter such conflict.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for Huang Zhong, but he was resisted by the generals in the army.

 Chapter 241

    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong hand in hand, know Huang Zhong''s strength.


    Not to mention the generals in the army, even if he confronts Huang Zhong head-on, he is not Huang Zhong''s opponent. Today, although Gan Ning and Chen Dao are powerful in the army, they are not as good as Huang Zhong in front of him.


    Huang Zhong''s strength is enough to hang all the generals in the army.


    Huang Zhao and others are dissatisfied with Huang Zhong.


    It''s self inflicted.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp. She asked, "you said Huang Zhong was difficult to convince the public when he was a general. What''s the reason?"


    Huang Zhao was pushed out as the spokesman of the first Department of the Xiliang army. In front of Gan Ning and Chen Dao, he had no weight. Now there is another Huang Zhong, who is also reluctant to be suppressed.


    Huang Zhao''s original intention is not to make a big scene.


    The problem is that he was the leader of the first Department of the Xiliang army. Under the encouragement of the generals of the Xiliang army, he finally could not hold his ground and came with people. When he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, Huang Zhao looked around.


    But none of them spoke.


    They all look at him.


    Huang Zhao drew his cheek and suddenly regretted it. This group of bastards recommended him to come out, but in front of Zhang Xiu, they all wilted and did not speak.


    Previously said good, everyone after seeing Zhang Xiu to express their views.


    Now, it''s a story.


    Let him talk.


    Huang Zhao had no way out. He took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Lord, we think Huang Zhong is hard to convince the public. That''s also a lot of consideration. Generals in the army should not only be able to lead soldiers to fight, but also dare to fight and kill, and have enough martial arts skills. "


    "In terms of martial arts, Huang Zhong may not be very powerful."


    "As far as experience is concerned, he''s old, but he doesn''t have a reputation. He''s so loud that it''s hard to convince the public."


    "In terms of age, he''s too old."


    Huang Zhao said: "these are our considerations. We all agree that Huang Zhong is not suitable to be a general."


    Zhang xiudao: "who is suitable?"


    Zhang Shi stood up and said, "Lord, Huang Zhao is very suitable. He is the first one to follow the Lord. He is the right person to have qualifications, ability, loyalty and martial arts. "


    "Lord, I agree with you."


    "Huang Zhao is loyal. As a general, he is the most suitable arrangement."


    ¡­¡­


    A person, keep talking.


    All of them put forward that Huang Zhao should be general Li. Their purpose in doing so is to recommend Huang Zhao as a flag in the army, who can compete with Chen Dao and Gan Ning.


    At least, it won''t be suppressed.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Huang Zhao and asked, "Huang Zhao, do you think you are suitable to be a general?"


    Huang Zhao said, "it''s all up to the Lord."


    He threw the question to Zhang Xiu and did not answer it directly.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "in my opinion, the military pursues the principle of respecting the strong. The contest of martial arts is the most direct way. What do you think of Ben


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhao answered directly.


    Others, too, agreed.


    Zhang Xiu see a eager appearance, immediately understand, they did not put Huang Zhong in the eyes. After all, Huang Zhong went north with Zhang Xiu and never showed his martial arts. It is because Huang Zhong does not show mountains and water that he is despised.


    Zhang Xiu thought a little, had a plan in mind, and ordered: "Huang Zhao, immediately convey the general''s order, and call all the soldiers in the army, including the prisoners, to the school yard in Wuguan."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhao answered immediately.


    He left with a group of people and quickly passed the order.


    On their way to the herald, their faces were very excited. They think that Zhang Xiu''s arrangement must be a change of attention, is to appoint Huang Zhao as partial general.


    One by one, with high morale and joy in their hearts, they quickly executed the orders.


    With the order, all the soldiers brought by Zhang Xiu gathered in the school yard in a short time.


    Everyone, look solemn.


    Zhang Xiu dressed in armor, entered the school field, quickly swept a glance.


    Chen Dao and Huang Zhong are at the front.


    Huang Zhao, Zhang Shi and others followed closely and stood in front of the army.


    Zhang Xiu strode forward, walked to the front stage of the school yard, looked around all the people, mentioned a breath, and said in a loud voice: "today, I will re appoint a general named Huang Zhong."


    As he spoke, he waved to Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong immediately stepped forward and stood beside Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu patted Huang Zhong on the shoulder and continued: "the general who will be appointed must be competent. But just now, some generals in the army jointly advised that Huang Zhong was not qualified for the job. "WOW!!


    When this remark came out, there was an uproar in the army.


    Zhang Xiu''s prestige in the army is supreme. No one can challenge Zhang Xiu''s military power and dignity. As long as Zhang Xiu a word, can disintegrate a person''s all.


    This is the prestige of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers talking, but did not point out Huang Zhao and others. She raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that all the soldiers were quiet. After everyone calmed down, Zhang Xiu continued: "in view of some people''s doubts, this will set up the challenge arena for Huang Zhong."


    "In the army, the strong are respected!"


    "Martial arts is the most direct standard to measure a general."


    "Huang Zhong, as a general arranged by himself, must be competent. He is standing on the stage now, accepting the challenge of anyone. Anyone who can defeat Huang Zhong will be awarded the post of general Bi. "


    "If all of them can''t beat Huang Zhong. Then, Huang Zhong''s position as a general will be no longer controversial. Everyone will listen to Huang Zhong''s arrangement and dispatch honestly. "


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice, "do you hear me clearly?"


    "Clear!"


    The orderly shouts resounded through the army.


    All the soldiers, keep shouting. Some of the grassroots generals in the army, with their minds wide open and their eyes full of hope, think that their opportunities have come.


    If you beat Huang Zhong, that''s general Bi.


    This is a golden opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "this general doesn''t talk much. Once again, if you can defeat Huang Zhong, you can get the post of General Li. If you want to go up and challenge, just go ahead. "


    The order was given. For a moment, no one came forward.


    After all, Huang Zhong was personally appointed by Zhang Xiu. No matter how bad, he still has some strength.


    Huang Zhao was not in a hurry to challenge. In his heart, he wanted to wait a little longer. Just as Huang Zhao was waiting, suddenly, a loud voice rang out.


    "Lord, I will ask for advice."


    But Zhang Shi came forward.


    Zhang Shi is a general of the first Department of the Xiliang army. He has made some contributions to follow Zhang Xiu early. Although Zhang Shi''s strength is only above average in the army, he feels good about himself.


    Zhang Shi strode to Huang Zhong''s face and stood with sharp eyes and a touch of hope in his eyes.


    He won. He''s a general.


    After Zhang Shi opened his mouth, Huang Zhong looked at Zhang Xiu and asked, "Lord, swords and guns have no eyes. Is it forbidden to use weapons?"


    "Don''t forbid, do your best."


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    It is not only a contest in the army, but also a contest of real swords and guns. Otherwise, it''s just an ordinary fight, and it''s meaningless.


    Huang Zhong got Zhang Xiu''s command and had an idea in his heart. He looked at Zhang Shi and asked, "do you use weapons?"


    "Use it!"


    Zhang Shi answered without hesitation.


    He was going to use weapons. Soon after he stepped into the challenge arena, he saw the soldiers coming with two Xuanhua axes.


    This is Zhang Shi''s weapon.


    He is good at strength.


    On the battlefield, Zhang Shi was invincible where Xuanhua axe passed. So even in the face of Huang Zhong, Zhang Shi is quite confident. He took Xuanhua axe and said, "General Huang, please."


    "Please


    Huang Zhong answered faintly.


    At the moment, Huang Zhong has no worries or urgency. He is fully confident.


    He is not afraid of Zhang Shi.

 Chapter 242

    Zhang Shi''s hands were left and right, each holding a Xuanhua axe. He summoned all his strength, gave a big drink, swung Xuanhua axe with his right hand and rushed out. Stay close to Huang Zhong, the Xuanhua axe, which has been raised high, will chop down.


    The cold light twinkled in the air.


    Xuanhua''s axe is powerful, and it seems to have the potential to open a mountain.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes were calm and his manner was natural. He was not impatient and raised his sword. The heavy sword, from bottom to top, went up in the air and hit Xuanhua axe.


    When the two weapons collided with each other, the blade made a sound under the friction.


    Huang Zhong twisted his waist and pushed his arm out. Peiran''s strength gushed out and Zhang Shi stepped back.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Although Zhang Shi said to step back, when he stepped back, he had already made use of the impact force, and then swung the Xuanhua axe in his left hand and chopped it down. This axe, the head of his pocket, fell on Huang Zhong.


    If one axe hits, it will be enough to split Huang Zhong in two. It''s just the moment when he just cut the axe, Huang Zhong''s long knife came out of his hand and hit Xuanhua''s axe hard.


    "Dang!"


    There was a deafening crash.


    Sound, stinging eardrum.


    His strength, like an avalanche, intruded into Zhang Shi''s palm from Xuanhua axe. Under the impact of the vast force, Zhang Shi holds Xuanhua axe''s palm, numb and painful.


    "Kick! Kick


    Zhang Shi retreated one after another, unable to stabilize himself.


    "Another knife!"


    Huang Zhong''s eyes were sharp and he strode forward to pursue him. He drags his long knife on the ground. The blade rubs the ground forward, making a sound of friction. The sound is even more numbing.


    At the moment when Zhang Shigang stabilized his figure, Huang Zhong had already jumped up and cut off with a knife in both hands.


    "Whew!"


    The blade breaks through the air, and there is a sound of breaking through the air.


    Its momentum is extremely shocking.


    Zhang Shigang stands firm, he has not yet concentrated on counterattack, even the opportunity to avoid. In the face of Huang Zhong''s knife, he can only swing two Xuanhua axes to arrive.


    The Xuanhua axe in his hand was in a cross shape and was set up fiercely.


    "Dang!"


    The blade cuts on Xuanhua axe.


    The forceful and harsh sound of impact sounded in everyone''s ears. Zhang Shi only felt that the vast power came with the great momentum and the fierce impact.


    In a flash, his hands cracked.


    Xuanhua axe in his hand could not be grasped any more and was knocked out directly. He himself was even more forced to bend his arms. As soon as his legs were soft, he knelt on the ground with a plop.


    The blade continues to fall.


    "Ah


    Kneeling on the ground, Zhang Shi was so scared that he cried out and even collapsed on the ground.


    At the moment of Zhang Shi''s exclamation, a buzzing sound came out three inches above Zhang Shi''s cheek. The sharp blade stopped abruptly, and the strong and heavy attack formed a sharp wind blowing from his face, which made Zhang Shi''s cheek feel painful.


    "I, I, I..."


    Zhang Shi stammered a little.


    He just felt wet under his crotch and was scared to pee. The scene just now, Zhang Shi will never forget, he mustered all his strength to resist, but that cut off a knife, as if can cut the sky and earth, can not resist.


    Huang Zhong took the knife and stood aside, saying, "next!"


    Zhang Shi, disheartened and disheartened, retreated.


    He wanted to go back to his camp and change his clothes. But now, he can only go back to the army, especially when his colleagues and soldiers look at him, they all seem to stare at his wet clothes, and his face suddenly feels hot.


    This is a big shame.


    Zhang Xiu saw it in her eyes and felt that everything should be taken for granted.


    Not to mention one Zhang Shi, even if there are ten more Zhang Shi, it is not Huang Zhong''s opponent. If Huang Zhong tried his best at the beginning, Zhang Shi would not be able to stop him.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    After Huang Zhong defeated Zhang Shi, there was a short stalemate, and no one came forward to challenge.


    Zhang Shi is not an ordinary person.


    In the army, Zhang Shi also has some weight.


    It''s just that after a pause, some soldiers can''t help it. In particular, power moves people''s minds. As long as Huang Zhong is defeated, he can become a general and a decisive presence in the army.


    So there are challenges again, even some soldiers in the army. Only those who went up to challenge Huang Zhong were defeated very quickly. Some people were defeated in the face-to-face way, while others who lasted the longest were defeated in three ways.


    All of you, you can''t make it.


    It''s no surprise to beat three or five people in a row. It''s terrible to defeat twenty or thirty people in a row, and each one loses with one or two moves.


    Gradually, there was silence in the army.


    Everyone looked at Huang Zhong with more awe in their eyes, no longer as casual as before.


    The generals in the army are also afraid.They didn''t put Huang Zhong in their eyes, and even thought that Huang Zhong could become a general, which was only valued by Zhang Xiu. But now I know that Huang Zhong is worthy of the name.


    Huang Zhao''s face was even more livid.


    It is very clear how much weight he has. Even if he can defeat Zhang Shi, it will take 50 or 60 moves before he can defeat Zhang Shi.


    But in front of Huang Zhong, Zhang Shi couldn''t even make three moves.


    Both sides, high and low.


    He must be inferior to Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhao''s original intention was to replace it. But now he looks bitter, let alone replace it, even if it''s good to keep it.


    He is no match for Huang Zhong at all.


    Huang Zhao looked at the stage. At this time, there was a deadlock again.


    No one dares to go on stage.


    Huang Zhao''s heart, looking forward to Zhang Xiu announced the end. He has seen Huang Zhong''s real strength and no longer has the courage to take office. He''s insulting himself now.


    Just when Huang Zhao looks around, he suddenly finds Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, staring at Huang Zhao, and said in a deep voice: "Huang Zhao, the people who are headed by you think that Huang Zhong is not competent and has not enough ability. Huang Zhong sets down the challenge arena to accept the challenge. You are the leader. Don''t you step forward to challenge? "


    Huang Zhao and Zhang Xiu are disappointed.


    Huang Zhao is really loyal to him, and his ability is not bad, but Huang Zhao intends to talk about seniority and crowd out others.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t like.


    This is not a good phenomenon. The strong in the army go up and the weak go down.


    This is the iron law.


    Zhang Xiu is actually happy to see Huang Zhao challenging Huang Zhong. The reason is very simple. Huang Zhong does not have any foundation or prestige in the army. There are many things that are not easy to deal with and push forward and are easy to encounter obstacles.


    After all, I''m new here.


    But after Huang Zhao made such a fuss, all the soldiers would see Huang Zhong''s strength, and their mentality would change. They would not despise Huang Zhong any more. In the future, it would be very easy for Huang Zhong to lead the army.


    This is conducive to Huang Zhong''s integration into the army.


    Huang Zhao heard Zhang Xiu''s question, his face was bitter. With a plop, he knelt down on the ground and said, "Lord, I''m not the opponent of General Huang. I''m willing to bow down. As General Li, Huang Zhong is convinced and willing to listen to General Huang''s arrangement. "


    He just softened up.


    If he doesn''t, he will be worse off.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are an old man who follows our general. You know our general''s character. If you do not, you should know the consequences. Are you really convinced? "


    Huang Zhao''s heart trembled, and he said: "the general will cooperate with General Huang, and the general will be convinced."


    At this moment, Huang Zhao lost his heart.


    It''s a big shame.


    He leads others to challenge, and instead of pushing himself to the top, he achieves Huang Zhong''s invincible reputation.


    It''s a loss business.


    Hearing Huang Zhao''s reply, Zhang Xiu said, "I think you have made a great contribution. This time, I will not investigate the matter. The next time you do it again, you''ll be expelled from the barracks. The general''s order is not a joke, let alone a random question. It''s the duty of soldiers to obey orders. If they don''t obey orders, they can''t accommodate you. "


    "Yes, I do."


    Huang Zhao looked bitter and spoke again.


    After Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Huang Zhaocai got up and went back to the army.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the soldiers under her command and said in a loud voice, "you have seen Huang Zhong''s martial arts. Now, does anyone want to challenge again? "


    There was silence in the barracks.


    No one spoke.


    All the soldiers recognized Huang Zhong and were willing to obey his orders.


    This is true in the army. The strong are respected!


    This is the world of the strong.


    Seeing that no one was speaking, Zhang Xiu said again, "since no one has come forward to challenge, Huang Zhong is the general in the army. He presided over the affairs of the army and fully represented the general. If you don''t obey the order, you will be killed. "


    All the soldiers are shivering.


    As they all know, Huang Zhong became one of the most respected generals in the army.

 Chapter 243

    After the army was disbanded, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong returned to the Chinese army.


    Huang Zhong knelt down on one knee, pleaded guilty and said: "the lax control of the general led to the dissatisfaction of Huang Zhao, Zhang Shi and others. When the matter came to the Lord, the Lord took the trouble to set up a challenge arena for the general, so that the general could establish his power. Please punish me for my incompetence. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s normal for people under your hands to be unconvinced when you are new here. After all, you haven''t led the soldiers to the battlefield, and you haven''t commanded the army to seize the flag. To command the present soldiers with your ability is to overuse your talents. "


    Huang Zhong said, "my Lord, I''m wrong."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and be busy. You just presided over the situation. There are a lot of things."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong clasped his fist and retreated.


    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the tent, holding a brush in his hand and writing on the paper. He won the Wuguan pass. His next goal is to capture the whole Guanzhong pass, but it is not easy.


    The whole Guanzhong is a complete mess.


    Under such a premise, it will be extremely difficult to straighten out the rotten Guanzhong.


    The people are in dire need!


    Officials corrupt and pervert the law!


    Warlords scuffle with each other!


    The common people eat people, the morality is ruined, the morality is destroyed


    This is the chaos in Guanzhong.


    Although Zhang Xiu has not occupied Guanzhong at present, he has to think about these things in advance. Those who don''t plan for the whole world can''t plan for the moment. Those who don''t plan for the whole situation can''t plan for the moment. They must make plans early.


    Time, in a hurry.


    Afternoon time!


    Huang Zhong rushed into the camp again and said: "Lord, I just received the news from the front-line spies. Gan Ning and Guo Si are approaching Wuguan. In the rear of Guo Si, Wu Xi pursued him


    "Here we are at last!"


    Zhang xiuceng stood up with high morale.


    In Zhang Xiu''s view, this is the first battle after entering Guanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Huang Zhong, mobilize a thousand elite soldiers to fight with me."


    Huang Zhong worried: "according to the information returned by the spies, there are at least 4000 soldiers under Wu Xi''s command, or even more. Even if we can win, it will be very difficult to wipe out Wu Xi. "


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said with a smile, "who said I would destroy Wu Xi?"


    "Ah


    Huang Zhong was surprised.


    For a moment, he didn''t keep up with Zhang Xiu''s ideas.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t speak quietly, and doesn''t mean to mention Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong rubbed the stubble under his jaw. Suddenly, his eyes brightened and he looked surprised. He said, "the master''s plan is to save Guo Si, defeat Wu Xi, and not kill Wu Xi."


    "Leave Wu Xi to restrain Guo Si."


    "Especially if Guo Si wanted to get revenge, he had to work for the Lord. As long as Guo Si is under the Lord''s command, it will not be difficult for him to annex the Xiliang army under his command. "


    "If the whole army were to kill Wu Xi in one go, Guo Si would lose his goal and choose to leave the Lord instead of relying on others."


    "At that time, we will lose the reason to control the Xiliang army under Guo Si."


    Huang Zhong said: "Lord, will the analysis be right?"


    "Right!"


    With a smile in her eyes, Zhang Xiu said, "it''s not worth killing Wu Xi. Leaving a living Wu Xi is conducive to our foothold in Guanzhong and the annexation of Guo Si''s army. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong answers with a fist.


    If he had to deal with it, he would never have done so. He would have defeated Wu Xi or even wiped out Wu Xi''s army. However, the situation in Guanzhong is inextricably linked. In order to win Guanzhong steadily, we need a certain amount of tact, not blindly show off.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu orders, mentions the overlord gun, then leaves the barracks with Huang Zhong.


    A thousand soldiers were quickly mobilized to the pass.


    It''s still a long way to go from the tower of Wuguan. This section of road is narrow, and the speed of driving is a little slow. In the narrowest place, it can only accommodate the next person.


    It took nearly two quarters of an hour for Zhang Xiu and his party to arrive at Wuguan.


    Entering Guanzhong, the road is smooth.


    At a glance, it is a vast plain, no towering mountains, everywhere are lush forests, as well as Artemisia.


    The whole Guanzhong area has withered completely.


    There are very few people.


    Everywhere is barren land, the tall Artemisia, there are more than one person high enough to submerge people.


    Zhang Xiu with soldiers, into a dense forest to hide, quietly waiting.


    Time goes by little.


    Two quarters of an hour passed again.


    "Rustle!"


    The sound of rapid footsteps came, and a sentry came running quickly. When he came to Zhang Xiu, he reported: "general, sentry report, Guo Si and his party are on the way to withdraw, less than two miles away from us.""In the rear of Guo Si, Wu Xi''s Xiliang army pursued him and bit him very hard."


    "The current situation is that Guo Si can''t get rid of Wu Xi''s pursuit, and the soldiers around him are less than 2000 now, while Wu Xi''s soldiers are at least 4000."


    The sentinel gave the latest information.


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu waved the sentry to retreat.


    He can be sure that without Gan Ning''s protection, Guo Si would have been killed by Wu Xi.


    It''s because Gan Ning is here that we can survive until now.


    Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry to fight. He continues to wait in the forest. Two miles away, not far, not long time, I heard in front of the official road, there are shouts of killing and shouting.


    The Xiliang army headed by Guo Si and Gan Ning retreated rapidly.


    Guo Si was in his early 40s, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. But at the moment, his clothes were shabby, his dirty clothes were covered with dry blood, his hair was all scattered, and he was very embarrassed.


    Gan Ning was beside Guo Si with high morale.


    He is only responsible for protecting Guo Si.


    Of course, his main task is to protect Jia Xu and ensure his safety.


    Jia Xu is also beside Gan Ning.


    He was clean, relaxed and calm, without any confusion.


    Guo Si''s eyes panicked and asked: "Mr. Jia, it''s all close to Wuguan. Why hasn''t anyone come to rescue? If no one comes again, I''m afraid we''ll all die in Wu Xi''s hands. Damn Wu Xi, he dares to rebel. Damn it. "


    Jia Xu said, "General Guo, don''t worry. We will be able to get away completely."


    "Don''t worry, don''t worry, but Wu Xi is coming. Can I not worry?"


    Guo Si''s eyes keep turning for fear that Wu Xi will catch up with him. He is Wu Xi''s boss. He knows Wu Xi''s character well. If he doesn''t get rid of his roots, Wu Xi won''t stop.


    Jia Xu was calm, not in a hurry, and no longer spoke to Guo Si.


    He is sure to have reinforcements.


    When they tried their best to retreat, they soon arrived at the ambush position of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu did not immediately intervene in the battlefield. Instead, when Guo Si''s soldiers passed by and Wu Xi''s pursuers arrived in the rear, she ordered: "summon, kill!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of the horn, from the forest.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong, with a long knife in his hand, took the lead.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    All the 1000 elite soldiers in the army were killed quickly. One by one, without fear and worry, they quickly entered the battlefield to meet Wu Xi''s army.


    Zhang Xiu also joined the battlefield for the first time with a overlord gun.


    He turned his eyes and soon found out where Wu Xi was.


    Zhang Xiu knew Wu Xi.


    After all, they all came from the Xiliang army.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun, fast sprint, where he passed, the overlord gun or sweep or stab, no one can stop. After a while, Zhang Xiu came to Wu Xi. He looked at Wu Xi on his horse. He swung his gun and said, "Wu Xi, get out of here!"


    "Bang!"


    The overlord gun hit the horse on the head.


    There was a dull noise, and in an instant, there was a cry of sorrow from Chamberlain, and he fell to his left.


    Wu Xi immediately fell to the ground. He was a veteran general on the battlefield. When he saw that the situation was not right, he immediately got up and saw Zhang Xiu in front of him.


    He has no fear of Zhang Xiu.


    Once upon a time, he was the Ministry of Guo Si.


    Zhang Xiu, that''s Zhang Ji''s department.


    Both sides know each other, but Wu Xi and Zhang Xiu have never met each other. He was full of war in his eyes. Holding his head high, he grasped the mace in his hand and said: "Zhang Xiu, child, it''s bad for me. You want to die!"

 Chapter 244

    Wu Xi doesn''t like Zhang Xiu very much. After a few days of learning how to shoot, a yellow mouthed child is arrogant and self righteous. He did not hand in hand with Zhang Xiu, and did not think that Zhang Xiu was so powerful.


    As soon as his words fell, the mace in his hand swung up and smashed down.


    The sharp thorn on the mace is shining with a cold light and a cold breath. The wolf tooth stick is hanging with a roaring sound, and his head falls from Zhang Xiu''s head. But before he reaches Zhang Xiu''s head, the overlord''s gun swings and hits the wolf tooth stick.


    "Dang!"


    There was a piercing crash in the air.


    Wu Xi bravely withstood the strength of the anti shock from the mace, and consciously tried to find out the strength of Zhang Xiu''s strength. He was determined and looked disdainful. He sneered: "there are some skills, but unfortunately, this is not enough."


    Zhang Xiu did not say a word, the overlord gun trembled, then stabbed out again.


    The tip of the gun twinkled and turned into a little cold star.


    A sense of extreme danger came from Wu Xi''s heart. But he was calm and quickly picked up the mace block. The tip of the gun stabbed continuously, only to hear the sound of Ding Ding.


    Every shot of Zhang Xiu hit Wu Xi''s mace.


    Under a series of impacts, Wu Xi''s hand holding the mace trembled slightly and felt numb.


    At this moment, Wu Xi''s heart sank.


    Zhang Xiu is very strong.


    It''s a lot stronger than when we first met just now.


    He has tried his best, Zhang Xiu is still a relaxed look, obviously did not try his best.


    Zhang Xiu repeatedly stabbed ten guns, forcing Wu Xi to resist, suddenly changed his moves again. Overlord gun no longer forward stab out, in the air across an arc, swung it down.


    A long gun is as strong as a stick.


    Wu Xi felt more numb when he saw Zhang Xiu''s blow.


    He held the mace in both hands and quickly blocked it. When the two weapons collided with each other, Wu Xi screamed, and his cheeks twitched constantly because of the power of concussion.


    "Hum! Hum


    The mace kept shaking, and the force pounded his palm, which made the tiger''s mouth immediately tear. The severe pain made him unable to hold the mace and flew out.


    Wu Xi''s internal organs are extremely uncomfortable, and his Qi and blood are not controlled. He only felt the sweetness of his throat, and when he opened his mouth, he burst out a mouthful of red blood.


    "Kick! Kick


    He''s bleeding in his mouth and he''s retreating under his feet.


    Once again, he stepped forward and made a big move. A shot flashed in the air, as fast as lightning. Only a dazzling light flashed in the air and reached Wu Xi.


    Wu Xi could not escape.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp spear runs through Wu Xi''s left shoulder. Under the impact of the powerful force, it easily penetrated his body, and the tip of the gun came out from his back, with red blood.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Wu Xi''s mouth.


    Zhang Xiu pulls back the overlord gun and leaves a blood hole in Wu Xi''s shoulder.


    For a while, the blood flowed.


    Wu Xi''s body trembles.


    His eyes were full of horror.


    Zhang Xiu just shot, overbearing peerless, he can''t escape. Wu Xi can even conclude that Zhang Xiu can stab him in the heart with one shot, which is enough to kill him.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t kill him, just penetrated his body.


    Wu Xi''s face became more ferocious because of the pain.


    At this moment, Wu Xi was in a state of confusion.


    He is more panic, because in front of Zhang Xiu, he did not even have the slightest resistance. Seeing Zhang Xiu draw out his long gun and sweep it again, he can''t escape. Wu Xi''s heart is full of sorrow. He can only close his eyes and wait for death.


    "Bang!"


    The overlord gun hit Wu Xi in the ribs.


    In a flash, Wu Xi snorted again. He vomited blood in his mouth, and his body flew backward uncontrollably to the ground.


    Wu Xi''s whole body seemed to be falling apart, very painful, but he was stunned.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t kill him?


    Zhang Xiu had the ability to kill him before, and now she can kill him, but she still hasn''t.


    "Retreat, protect me, retreat."


    Wu Xi''s mind moves, and he knows that Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to kill him. He did not ask the reason, decisively let the soldiers lift him to retreat.


    After Zhang Xiu found out, there was a smile in the corner of her mouth, and there was no order to pursue her.


    It''s a set thing to let Wu Xi go.


    Huang Zhong led the soldiers to cover up and kill symbolically for a while, then quickly withdrew. Before, Huang Zhong was killed in Wu Xi''s army. When the blade passed, all the soldiers were killed, and no one could stop them.


    His martial arts are fully displayed.


    Huang Zhong came back to Zhang Xiu and stood still.


    Gan Ning''s eyes fell on Huang Zhong and looked at him. He is a general in the army. He is good at martial arts and has enough eyesight to understand Huang Zhong''s power.Looking at Huang Zhong''s posture, he is invincible.


    This is a great master.


    However, Gan Ning didn''t have any idea. He just kept Huang Zhong in mind.


    Guo si no longer retreats, retreats to Zhang Xiu''s side. With a look of approval, he praises: "Zhang Xiu, you are a good young man. You have done a good job."


    Zhang Xiu laughs.


    What is a young man?


    With him in Guo Si''s eyes, he is still a younger generation, and Guo Si is going to make up his mind.


    Guo Si continued: "if you didn''t kill me halfway, I''m afraid I would have died in the hands of Wu Xi. But when you fought with Wu Xi before, I also saw that you were sure to kill him. Why didn''t you kill him? "


    Guo Si was a general and Marquis of meiyang, who was granted by the imperial court. He had the right to open the palace. Under normal circumstances, he is higher than Zhang Xiu''s official position, equal to Zhang Xiu''s superior.


    Even if he is down, he still plays tricks and treats Zhang Xiu as a younger generation. Even the conversation with Zhang Xiu was interrogative. Originally, he said in his letter that he was willing to take part in the war. Now that Guo Si has survived the crisis, he does not intend to surrender.


    This is Guo Si''s plan.


    This is also what Guo Si has been pondering in his mind for a long time.


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said lightly: "General Guo joked. It''s not that he would not kill Wu Xi, but that Wu Xi is cunning and has countless soldiers to protect him. At that time, Wu Xi could not be killed. "


    "You can kill Wu Xi."


    Guo Si snorted, sharp eyes, very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu''s answer.


    Zhang Xiu squinted at Guo Si and continued: "Wu Xi can force General Guo to a desperate situation, which shows that he is extremely powerful. If I can kill Wu Xi, I can kill General Guo. I don''t have the courage to kill General Guo, so I can''t kill Wu Xi. "


    On hearing this, Guo Si frowned.


    He suddenly understood that Zhang Xiu was not the former Zhang Xiu, but the famous Zhang Xiu of the power side.


    He was relying on his old age just now.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu was so direct that she threatened him.


    Guo Si was very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu''s answer. He thought Zhang Xiu was arrogant, but he didn''t dare to show it too much. He digged off the topic and continued: "Zhang Xiu, you are not familiar with Guanzhong, but you will be. With the guidance of this general, it is as easy as a palm to capture Guanzhong. Together, you and I will be invincible. "


    This is Guo Si''s fight for the initiative.


    He did not want to surrender. Once he surrendered to Zhang Xiu, the army would be under the command of Zhang Xiu, and he would be completely elevated.


    Guo Si didn''t want to.


    Facing the dilemma of life and death, Guo Si had no choice.


    Now, he wants to go back.


    In other words, they want to fight for enough rights.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Guo Si''s words, she didn''t speak. Instead, she raised the overlord gun in her hand, wiped the blood on the tip of the gun, and then danced the overlord gun twice.


    For a time, the murderous spirit was pressing.


    Zhang Xiucai said with a smile: "just now I shot into Wu Xi''s shoulder. The point of the gun didn''t stagnate at all. Even Wu Xi''s bones were broken. I just don''t know what it''s like to have this gun stuck in the heart? I''m afraid it''s just like poking on tofu. General Guo, do you want to experience it? "


    Guo Si''s cheek twitched slightly.


    Zhang Xiu threatened him again.


    This clearly means that if he does not agree to surrender, Zhang Xiu may kill him.


    Guo Si looked at Zhang Xiu in front of him and felt strange.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, let him not adapt.


    Zhang Xiu used to be a general in the Xiliang army. She was always with Zhang Ji, but she was impatient, impulsive and too fond of doing things. She was a good person to deal with and guess.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu gives him a feeling that he can''t figure it out. Even in front of Zhang Xiu, he is like a transparent man, and his mind is invisible.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu, who used to be, would not threaten him like this.


    Even if dissatisfied, Zhang Xiu will be rough.


    Guo Si swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked around. His soldiers were yellow and thin, while Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were energetic and full of fighting spirit.


    He is sure to lose in a fight.


    Even he can''t escape. He must die in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Guo Si sighed that people had to bow their heads under the eaves. At the moment, he has no choice but to choose forbearance, first to work for Zhang Xiu, save his life and then other things.

 Chapter 245

    Zhang Xiu saw Guo Si wilt, disdain in the heart.


    Guo Si is a man of great ambition and few talents.


    He was able to defeat Wang Yun, chase Lv Bu, and hold the emperor by Dong Zhuo''s Yu Yin and Jia Xu''s calculation.


    Without these, Guo Si is nothing.


    Guo si no longer mentions the cooperation, Zhang Xiu no longer talks about Guo Si, and her eyes fall on the Xiliang soldiers under Guo Si''s command. His purpose is to be a group of Xiliang soldiers, who are needed in the army.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a loud voice, "I think most of you know Zhang Xiu."


    "Yes


    In the crowd, a brave soldier of the Xiliang army answered in a loud voice.


    The rest of the soldiers were smiling.


    They are safe at last.


    Soldiers can be regarded as able to put their hearts down and do not have to worry about being attacked.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes became sharper than ever before, and said forcefully: "before Ben Jiang came to Wuguan, he received a letter from Guo Si. He said that he was willing to join Ben Jiang and asked him to send troops to rescue him. Although Ben Jiang is here, he looks down on you. "


    WOW!


    When this remark came out, there was an uproar.


    The soldiers of Xiliang army under Guo Si''s command were all talking about it, and their faces were even more unwilling. Why were they despised by Zhang Xiu?


    They are the Xiliang army.


    They are elite.


    The soldiers of the Xiliang army whispered and talked about their ideas.


    He is also very dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu.


    Guo Si stands on one side and hears Zhang Xiu''s words. He wants to open his mouth and say that he didn''t submit to Zhang Xiu. Just Zhang Xiu a light floating eyes to see, Guo Si immediately scalp numbness, the bottom of the heart gave birth to a bone chilling.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, Guo Si seems to see that Zhang Xiu wants to choose people.


    As if to kill him.


    Guo Si knew that his current situation was the fish and meat on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, which was left to be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu. Once angered Zhang Xiu, even if Zhang Xiu does not know how to kill him, there are other ways to let him die.


    He can''t provoke Zhang Xiu.


    Gudong!


    Guo Si swallowed a mouthful of saliva and stopped talking, leaving Zhang Xiu to speak.


    Zhang Xiu waited for a while, letting things ferment. After half a sound, Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down to signal all the soldiers to be quiet. After the scene was quiet, everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu opened her mouth and said, "do you know why I didn''t like you?"


    "Open your eyes, first look at yourself, then look at the soldiers under the general. Which one, like you, is yellow and thin, with dull eyes and a look of depression. "


    "If you fight them, you will lose. If it''s a fight of life and death, you will die. "


    "The general''s soldiers, who eat meat and drink broth, wear helmets and flak armour, have high morale and command and forbid, are the division of hundred battles."


    "And you?"


    "Languid and disorderly, no fighting spirit."


    "It''s like in this army, it''s just like in your family, relaxed and casual."


    "The soldiers under the general, let them rush forward, they dare not retreat. And you? Let''s go ahead, I''m afraid you''re going to retreat at once. "


    "Can you fight?"


    "Are you soldiers?"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are extremely sharp, and the words are poked in the hearts of all Xiliang soldiers. They also admit that in today''s situation, when it comes to the fighting capacity of both sides, they are totally inferior to Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    Otherwise, they don''t need Zhang Xiu to rescue.


    It''s not comparable.


    Guo Si''s face is even more dull. Zhang Xiu says that his soldiers are incompetent. To say that his soldiers are cowardly is to say that he is incompetent.


    This is hitting him in the face.


    But Guo Si really couldn''t help it.


    Over the years, he was short of money and food, and his military pay could not be paid on time. It was good for soldiers to have enough food. It was impossible for them to eat meat. Although the days of his soldiers were hard, they were not the hardest.


    There are even worse troops.


    Guo Si had no light on his face. All the soldiers of the Xiliang army under his command were silent. The expression on one''s face, all is gloomy incomparable.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers eat meat and drink broth.


    What about them?


    It''s soup, and it''s clear soup.


    Even the rice is mixed with sand and stone, and it''s all Chen Liang. There''s no fresh rice noodles. The best time is to have the broth once a month, but when you go to the bowl, a lump of meat is missing, and you are very glad to see a little oil bead.


    The gap between the two sides is too big.


    Gudong!!


    Many Xiliang soldiers swallowed their saliva. Some soldiers who have no eyes are shining in their eyes.


    Eat meat.


    If there''s meat to eat, that''s good.One by one, the soldiers are no longer scolded by Zhang Xiu as a waste or despised by Zhang Xiu. Instead, they think that if they can eat enough, they can eat meat.


    When a pair of eyes looked at Zhang Xiu, there was more brilliance in her eyes.


    That''s the look of expectation.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the faces of the soldiers of the Xiliang army and laughed in her heart.


    He did it on purpose.


    Money and silk move people.


    Meat also moves people.


    For these yellow skinned soldiers of the Xiliang army, it is the best to have enough food and meat. If Zhang Xiu wants to reorganize the soldiers of the Xiliang army, he must first make all the soldiers of the Xiliang army subordinate to him and obey his orders.


    If directly reorganized, it is easy to leave hidden dangers.


    So we need to guide them.


    Let all the soldiers of Xiliang army understand that there is no future following Guo Si, and only by following Zhang Xiu can they have meat and make money.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said again: "although you are useless now, I believe you will have a big army. You follow me, Zhang Xiu. You can eat your fill, practice your martial arts, and gallop on the battlefield. "


    "You can''t be bad."


    "Not bad" makes many Xiliang soldiers feel excited and full of expectations.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what''s more, you have a good family background. You are all from the Xiliang army, just like Ben Jiang. Because you are from Xiliang army, you will be able to accept you. "


    "Soldiers who become generals have meat to eat and money to earn."


    "Will you?"


    Zhang Xiu raised her voice again, as if trying to roar.


    "Yes!"


    Among the soldiers of the Xiliang army, one answered in a loud voice.


    "Yes!"


    "Yes!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts echoed in Wuguan. At first, the voice was still scattered. Gradually, the soldiers of Xiliang army were shouting, and their faces were full of excitement.


    They see hope.


    They want to follow Zhang Xiu.


    The more powerful the voice, reverberated in the air, but the more powerful the voice, the paler Guo Si''s face.


    It''s over!


    Zhang Xiu broke his morale.


    Zhang Xiu only with a mouth, even half of the force did not use, making his morale collapse, no one is willing to be loyal to him, this result is to make Guo Si extremely helpless.


    But he couldn''t stop it.


    Once he stops, he will be killed by Zhang Xiu. Even in the current situation, he began to stop, I''m afraid that without Zhang Xiu''s hand, the soldiers of the Xiliang army would kill him.


    Because it''s in the way of the soldiers.


    Guo Si''s cheek twitched slightly and sighed in his heart. He is depressed, but his eyes are dribbling, thinking about the solution. Suddenly, his eyes fell on Huang Zhong and he had an idea in his heart.


    Guo Si restrained his thoughts and watched the change for a while.


    Looking at the shouting soldiers, Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down. When the soldiers were quiet, she said in a loud voice: "you are willing to surrender, but the general''s army is not a vegetable market, it is a place where orders are forbidden."


    "As soon as you enter the barracks, you are bound."


    "The general''s soldiers are not allowed to plunder the people, violate the law, act without authorization, and..."


    ¡­¡­


    "Many laws must be observed."


    "If there is any violation, he will be expelled from the barracks, or directly killed by the staff."


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and asked, "you may abide by the law of our general?"


    "Yes


    A uniform voice sounded.


    In the minds of the soldiers, they all want to follow Zhang Xiu and have meat to eat.


    They answered without hesitation.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "the son of the Xiliang army is a loyal son who keeps his promise. I would have believed what you said. Your reorganization will be arranged by your own people. Now the whole army is arrayed, and we will return to Wuguan to rest. "


    He nodded to Huang Zhong.


    Immediately, Huang Zhong led his troops back.


    Guo Si was also in the army, retreating with the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and Gan Ning and said with a smile, "this trip has been hard for you two. This time, you can successfully enter Wuguan and have a foothold in Wuguan. You have made great contributions. "


    "My Lord, I''m wrong."


    Jia Xu and Gan Ning answered modestly.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She returned to the barracks with all the people. Then she summoned Jia Xu, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Pang Tong to discuss the next arrangements in the Chinese Army''s big account.

 Chapter 246

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the crowd and introduced Huang Zhong to Jia Xu and Gan Ning. After the two sides got to know each other, Zhang Xiu said, "now the soldiers of Xiliang army who have annexed Guo Si, together with our original soldiers, are more and more powerful. In view of this, Ben will prepare to divide the soldiers and reorganize two armies. "


    Ganning heart a Lin, he knows that Zhang Xiu do this purpose, is to take care of Huang Zhong.


    On the way back, he listened to the soldiers.


    As soon as Huang Zhong arrived at the barracks, he took over everything in the army. He knew more about Huang Zhong''s defeat of Huang Zhao, Zhang Shi and others. For this reason, Ganning asked Chen Dao about Huang Zhong''s martial arts in private.


    Chen Dao said that he was no match for Huang Zhong.


    Ganning wilted at that time.


    Ganning''s martial arts may not have the upper hand when compared with Chen Dao. Even Chen Dao is not an opponent. He can''t beat Huang Zhong.


    In particular, Huang Zhong is both civil and military.


    Such a person in the army is bound to control the army.


    Gan Ning''s heart is ready to let Huang Zhong come from behind. After all, their own lack of strength, can only abdicate. When he was loyal to Zhang Xiu, didn''t he crowd out Huang Zhao and others?


    So, Ganning doesn''t think it''s anything.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes, nose and heart are indifferent. He knew that Zhang Xiu divided the barracks again for his sake.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the division of the army is based on the former Xiliang army under our command and the Xiliang army under Guo Si''s command, and a new army is formed, which is called Feixiong army."


    "In the past, the flying bear army under Dong Zhuo was invincible and invincible."


    "The princes of Kanto are also silent."


    "Today, we will build a new flying bear army with 8000 people. The general also hoped that the newly established flying bear army would also have the style of the past and be invincible all over the world. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the chief General of the flying bear army is Huang Zhong."


    "I will obey you!"


    Huang Zhong stood up and gave an answer.


    He knew the purpose of Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. After all, he had been able to suppress the commander of the Xiliang army before, which was enough to suppress Huang Zhao and others.


    After Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Huang Zhong returned to his seat.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Gan Ning. She continued: "based on the soldiers recruited in Nanyang County, the establishment of the liehu army is still 8000. The leader of the fierce tiger army is Gan Ning. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Gan Ning got up and gave an answer.


    He and Huang Zhong each command an army, not subordinate to each other, but also compete with each other.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the rest of the remaining soldiers, as a regular army."


    All of us should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement is to arrange Gan Ning and Huang Zhong equally. One is to elevate Huang Zhong, and the other is not to let Gan Ning feel cold.


    Having said the adjustment of the army, Zhang Xiu also said the details of the formation of things, to ensure that Huang Zhong and Gan Ning. When everything goes on, Zhang Xiu digs off the topic and looks at Jia Xu and says, "Sir, what''s the situation in Guanzhong?"


    Jia Xu replied: "the general situation in Guanzhong is not much different from what he said before."


    "The only difference lies in Duan''s strength. He speculated that Duan Xun probably won Cao Cao''s support and had already been connected with Cao Cao. "


    "Cao Cao has already laid out Guanzhong."


    "This time Wu Xi''s rebellion, with Wu Xi''s own courage, has no courage to rebel. It must be Duan Wen''s instigation. It is expected that Wu Xi will definitely go to Duan Wen after his retreat. "


    Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "the most powerful one in Guanzhong is Duan Xu."


    "However, Duan''s army mainly gathered in the front line of Huayin county to the west of Hongnong County, and there was no conflict with us for the time being. I suggest that our main task is to wipe out Li He, who lives near Chang''an. "


    "When you get rid of Li He, attack Duan Wen in Hongnong''s direction, and finally capture Luoyang."


    "It''s not difficult to wipe out Li Yu with the Lord''s forces, but the problem is that there are countless bandits in every county and county, and there are bandits everywhere, and the people are in dire straits. Even many of the common people have turned into bandits and wreaked havoc all over the country. "


    Speaking of this, Jia Xu said with emotion: "it''s easy to fight, but it''s the most difficult to govern. Destruction is only a matter of one day and one night. It takes countless days and nights to recover. "


    Pang Tong asked: "Sir, what we are going to do next is to attack Li Ying steadily step by step."


    "No!"


    Jia Xu shook his head and answered.


    Jia Xu had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "to attack Li Yu, we must be thunderous. As a matter of fact, Li''s strength is also declining. He is no longer what he used to be


    "The humble proposal is to send a surprise force to attack Li Ying stationed in Chang''an."


    "After the Lord captured Chang''an, he opened up the area along the way from Wuguan to Chang''an, and transported a steady stream of grain until Guanzhong came to relieve the people."


    Jia Xu said: "in this way, attract people to return to Guanzhong and strive to recover as soon as possible."Pang Tong nodded and stopped asking questions.


    Zhang Xiu pondered for a while and said slowly: "the bandits who occupy all counties and counties are weak. They are really skin problems. They are not worth worrying about. But at present, even Li''s specific situation, such as his army and his Garrison, is not clear. The first important thing to do now is to inquire about Li He. "


    "No!"


    Jia Xu shook his head and said, "Guo Si knows the news. He and Li Shi are old partners and enemies. When he was in Guo Si''s army, he was asked in his humble position. Guo Si said that he knew it, but he was not willing to say it. He said that he would not tell all the news until he saw the Lord


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "then I''ll summon Guo Si to understand the situation."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to inform Guo Si.


    Then Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Zhi and said, "when it comes to the adjustment of the army, you three should discuss it together. Go ahead and try to plan the army well in one day and reorganize it quickly to form combat effectiveness. "


    "Here it is


    Three people should go down together, then turn to go down.


    On the way back, Jia Xu learned about Huang Zhong and others and congratulated them: "my Lord went to Jingzhou in the south for a trip, which has provided us with enough talents. This won Guanzhong, there are enough people to be competent, can be said to solve the worries


    Zhang Xiu also laughed and said with emotion: "this time we can recruit talents, thanks to Kuai Liang''s recommendation. Although this person is not with me, there is no doubt that he has helped us. "


    Jia Xu nodded in agreement.


    After a short time, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and Guo Si entered the barracks. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he leaned back slightly and said, "I''ve met General Zhang in the next Guo Si."


    He said in his letter that he would submit to Zhang Xiu.


    But it''s hard to change.


    Once upon a time, he was a man with the same strength as Li Yi and fan Hou. But now, fan Hou is dead, Li He and his strength is weakened, it is yesterday''s yellow flower. Even if his strength does not exist, he used to be a man in charge of the government and still has a high mentality.


    He didn''t want to bend his knees to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu did not pay attention to Guo Si''s action in her eyes.


    Guo Si has committed countless crimes.


    Trouble the world!


    Wreak havoc on the people!


    Plunder!


    Guo Jiusi has at least four responsibilities. Such people should be killed, or even not killed, so as to calm people''s anger.


    But Guo Si had some value, so he didn''t kill him immediately.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Guo Si, Mr. Jia said that you know Li Shi''s information. What''s the situation of Li Shi?"


    When Guo Si heard this, his jaw gradually rose.


    Guo Si pondered in his heart that he was ready to use Li''s intelligence in exchange for benefits.


    With the plan, Guo Si said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, I know all the information about Li Yi very well. I know the location of his troops, the number of his troops, and even where his granary is. But why should I tell you? "


    Zhang Xiu sneered.


    Guo Si is really forgetful.


    It''s only a short time, and the scar is healed. I forget the pain.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and inquired: "what do you want to say?"

 Chapter 247

    For Guo Si, Zhang Xiu thought that she was scum, harming the people and innocent people. Because Guo Si was useful, he didn''t kill him. Guo Si is not clear about the situation, and Zhang Xiu is even more disdainful.


    Do not live if you do evil.


    No death, no death.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Guo Si. He waits for Guo Si''s words to see what conditions Guo Si will put forward.


    Guo Si raised his head, shook his robes, and went to Jia Xu''s position with a smile: "Mr. Jia, I respect you, but you are just a counselor. Come on, move your position. I''ll sit with you so that I can talk to General Zhang. "


    "Good!"


    Jia Xu gets up directly and is ready to get out of the way.


    There was a sneer in his mouth and a look of disdain in his eyes. He had known Guo Si''s character for a long time.


    This kind of person is not worth mentioning.


    It''s just the difference between early death and late death.


    Guo sigang was about to sit down, but Zhang Xiu disagreed and said, "slow down, don''t hurry to sit down. Wenhe, don''t let me


    Guo Si asked, "why?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "it''s good for physical and mental health to stand up and say something. If you sit and talk, don''t talk at all. After all, if you work hard and save more energy, you may live longer. "


    Brush!


    Guo''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu is so hateful that he even threatens him with cruel words.


    What is more energy saving?


    What is to live longer?


    It''s all Zhang Xiu''s threats, but Guo Si is not afraid at this time. He has the information of Li Jian as his confidence. He doesn''t believe what Zhang Xiu dares to do with him. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu won''t get the information of Li Jian.


    This is Guo Si''s strength.


    Guo Si raised his head and tossed his voice: "Zhang Xiu, if you don''t let me sit down, I can''t remember. I''m afraid I can''t remember where the garrison is and where the grain is stored. Not only do I have to sit down and say, but you have to promise that you and I will be in charge of the army. You have the right to transfer troops, and so do I. Otherwise, I''ll say it. "


    He gave up.


    We should meet with Zhang Xiu.


    This is also Guo Si''s exploration. He wants to see what kind of person Zhang Xiu is.


    Zhang Xiu listened to smile, didn''t expect Guo Si such lion big mouth, also want to master the army, it is a fool dream. Even if it''s stupid, it''s impossible to hand over military power.


    You know, the barrel of a gun is out of power.


    Military power is everything.


    Zhang Xiu is in charge of the army. It is impossible to give Guo si the right. With a flick of his big sleeve, he said, "I admire General Guo for his ideas. Since you have an idea, I''ll help you. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    A soldier entered and saluted with his fist.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold, and ordered: "drag Guo Si down, and the staff is responsible for the fifty army staff. Give me a hard hit. Who dares to keep his hand, he will get the punishment himself. "


    "Here it is


    The soldier answered and went straight to Guo Si.


    "Stop it


    Guo Si''s eyes were wide open, and his face was filled with the spirit of killing. He glared and scolded: "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to do something to me? You know, I have nearly 3000 soldiers under my command. One after another, the fleeing Xiliang army will withdraw, and there will be more troops. Are you not afraid of causing unrest in the army when you blame me? "


    "Turbulence?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "I''m not afraid of this."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "can a general who can''t bring food and clothing to the soldiers win the support of the soldiers? Guo Si, don''t think of yourself as omnipotent. After a meal of meat, your soldiers will not be able to follow you. They are my soldiers. "


    "You..."


    Guo Si''s face changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what''s more, Guo Si is greedy. He has always embezzled the soldiers'' grain and squeezed them. People like you, that is, soldiers are desperate and have no other way, are willing to follow you and seek a full meal. Otherwise, how can they follow you. You are so conceited. "


    Gudong!


    Guo Si swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    He stubbles his neck and is unwilling to admit defeat. He says in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to tear your face? I tell you, if you dare to do it, I will never tell you about Li Yu. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you serious? If we don''t talk about it now, we''ll have to talk about it later, and we''ll have to talk about it later. "


    "No!"


    Guo Si clenched his teeth and answered.


    He gambled that Zhang Xiu needed his information and that Zhang Xiu did not dare to fight him.


    "Alas


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "as a person, I always admire people with backbone. Come on, take Guo Si down to me. You can''t have less than 50 sticks. "


    "Yes


    The soldiers came forward, set up Guo Si and went out.


    Guo Si, who was once a master of martial arts, was a general in the army. But today, Guo Si is already full of brains, and his martial arts are wasted on women. His limbs are weak, and he can''t move when he is supported by soldiers."Zhang Xiu, you dare to do this to me. You can''t get any news."


    Guo Si began to drink.


    "Zhang Xiu, you will regret it."


    Guo Si was dragged out, shouting loudly.


    Just when he was dragged to the door, the heart suddenly flustered, because Zhang Xiu moved the real, not to play. Guo Si was afraid in his heart. When he thought of the fifty army staff, his scalp became numb. He hurriedly said, "Zhang Xiu, I say, I''m willing to say!"


    At this moment, Guo Si''s mouth softened.


    But he thought that even if he gave Li Shi''s information, he would not tell all the real information. It must be half true and half false. When Zhang Xiu failed, he could not be questioned, because he might not remember.


    The soldier also stops and looks at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her decision.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were cold and fierce, and said: "it''s hard for a gentleman to catch up with his words. Since it''s a matter of speaking, how can he repent. Drag it out for me. You can''t lose one of the fifty sticks. "


    "Yes


    The soldiers immediately dragged out.


    "Zhang Xiu, you have to die!"


    Guo Siyi hears Zhang Xiu''s order and yells abuse. But it was useless for him to drink and scold, and he was soon dragged away.


    Looking at Guo Si who was dragged away, Jia Xu said: "Lord, Guo Si is a man with a bad reputation in Guanzhong. As soon as people hear Guo Si''s name, they gnash their teeth. "


    "According to the information we inquired about, Guo Si often raided women. Originally, Guanzhong is now empty, and there are few people. Even many people go to the mountains to be savages, but Guo si still has to raid the people."


    "Whenever there is food, he will snatch it."


    "Especially when it comes to the season of grain harvest, he will take the soldiers directly to snatch it, regardless of the people."


    "He doesn''t care whether the people live or die."


    "Guo Si and Li Yi were in Guanzhong, which made countless people''s lives destroyed."


    Jia Xu had a stern look in his eyes and said, "but Guo Si did know a lot of news. He is familiar with Li and Duan. He knows the information about Li and Duan. He can get a lot of information from him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not difficult for Guo Si, who is strong outside but strong in the middle. He''ll get all the information


    For Guo Si, Zhang Xiu did not pay attention.


    "Ah


    Suddenly, a shrill cry came from outside.


    But Guo Si was beaten.


    Bang bang of the impact sound, spread to the barracks, army stick constantly fall. Every drop of the baton will cause Guo Si''s buttocks concussion. The pain of tearing heart and splitting lung makes Guo Si scream constantly.


    Fifty army sticks, no less.


    After the fifty army baton was finished, Guo Si''s buttocks were already bloody and fleshy. The look on his face at the moment was already very pale, and his eyes were filled with endless blood.


    He hated Zhang Xiu to death.


    Originally, he thought that with the help of Zhang Xiu''s power to resist Wu Xi, he could take charge of the army together with Zhang Xiu, and even try to seize the military power in Zhang Xiu''s hands, and in turn control Zhang Xiu.


    But the current situation is that he was severely cleaned up by Zhang Xiu, completely reduced to fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board.


    Just out of the tiger''s den, like a wolf''s nest.


    This is the status quo of Guo Si.


    Guo Si felt that his buttocks were all broken, his whole body was in pain, and none of them was intact. He was carried by the soldiers into the Chinese army tent, can only lie on the ground. He looked up at Zhang Xiu, biting his steel teeth, and his eyes were full of hatred.


    He hated Zhang Xiu to death.


    He was not willing.


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and said: "Guo Si, would you like to talk?"


    "Yes, yes!"


    Guo Si didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    In his heart, however, he made up his mind that he would never tell the real news. What he told Zhang Xiu was half true and half false. He wanted Zhang Xiu to suffer a big loss in Guo Si''s hands.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were shining coldly and said: "before you tell us the information, you should think clearly, don''t let it go. Because if the information goes wrong, you may die. The most important thing is that I will arrange people in advance to make inquiries according to the information you have given, and then start the operation. If the news doesn''t match, it''s not a fifty army staff, it''s a loss of head. "


    Brush!


    Guo Si''s face changed again.

 Chapter 248

    Guo Si''s inner plan is indeed a half true and half false message to Zhang Xiu, so as to retaliate against her. Even if it can''t destroy Zhang Xiu''s army, at least let Zhang Xiu suffer.


    But Zhang Xiu''s words shattered his inner thoughts.


    He dare not lie at all.


    Once a lie is discovered by Zhang Xiu''s spies and the news is sent back, he will not only hurt his buttocks, but also lose his head. As far as the situation of being beaten by 50 soldiers just now is concerned, Zhang Xiu is absolutely true to what she says and can do it.


    If the news is not true, Zhang Xiu will kill him.


    Zhang Xiu examined Guo Si and asked again, "Guo Si, do you think clearly?"


    "Think about it."


    Guo Si gave a sad smile with a helpless look.


    He can''t help it.


    I can''t provoke Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took the paper and pen to Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, you are responsible for the inquiry and record. We need to make clear where Li''s camp is, the deployment of troops and the situation of the granary. "


    "I''ll do it


    Jia Xu solemnly replied.


    He did not delay time, immediately let the soldiers carry the injured Guo Si out of the camp, to bring Guo Si to trial.


    Only Pang Tong and Zhang Xiu were left in the camp.


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "Lord, according to Mr. Jia, the situation in Guanzhong is not optimistic. If we occupy Guanzhong, will we be delayed. It''s hard to be sure, at least for the time being


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and replied, "there is a certain truth in your worry, but in the long run, occupying Guanzhong is equal to mastering a lifeline, so we can really have a foothold. This is where we have to take it. "


    Pang Tong sighed and said, "it''s true. If you want to get benefits, you have to pay a considerable price."


    "It''s worth it," Zhang said


    Pang Tong changed his words and suggested: "the situation in Guanzhong is a complete mess. It can even be said that the roots are completely rotten. We have to use heavy allusions to kill people. A mess of a place, slowly map it, the effect is too slow. It is suggested that after seizing Guanzhong, we should kill the chickens and frighten the monkeys and rectify the local areas. "


    With a look of approval, Zhang Xiu said, "what Shiyuan said is true. In troubled times, heavy allusions should be used. After all, it doesn''t work in troubled times to influence the people with morality. "


    Pang Tong didn''t speak any more, so he turned around and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the tent, sorting out the government affairs presented, and deducing the next step of the war according to the information she got at the moment.


    Time goes by little.


    A day is fleeting.


    In the evening, after dinner, Zhang Xiu went out of the camp and was ready to make an inspection tour in Wuguan. But as soon as he walked out of the camp, suddenly, a soldier rushed out. When he was ten steps away from Zhang Xiu, he plopped and knelt on the ground.


    Zhang Xiu stopped immediately.


    The soldier said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, please make the decision for the villain!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldier kneeling on the ground in front of him. He was thin, dark and not very tall. At first glance, it was not the temperament of his soldiers.


    This is a soldier of Xiliang army under Guo Si.


    By this time, the soldiers at the gate of the barracks had already rushed out, ready to stop the soldiers of the Xiliang army.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to stop her and asked, "what''s your name?"


    "The soldier said:" the villain Ma Liang


    Zhang xiudao: "Ma Liang, right? You wait for me outside the camp of Ben Jiang, but what''s the matter?"


    Ma Liang kowtowed his head to the ground and said, "general Qi, the villain was originally a military commander in the army, with five soldiers under his command. Just this afternoon, the army reorganized and assigned us to the flying bear army of General Huang Zhong. "


    "As soon as General Huang Zhong took office, he distributed his armor and weapons. We are grateful for that. In addition, General Huang also gave each person 100 yuan as a subsidy, let''s subsidize the family. "


    "The money given above is 100 yuan, but in the hands of villains and other soldiers, a person has only ten Wen."


    "The villain didn''t know at first."


    "According to the ten questions, my brothers thought it was good at first. After all, they could still have money. But it was not long before I learned that some of the other soldiers actually got 100 yuan. Then I realized that the subsidy given to each soldier was 100 yuan. "


    Ma Liang kowtowed his head to the ground and said, "if you dare to die, please ask general Zhang to make the decision for us."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and examined Ma Liang in front of her. She asked, "didn''t you go to find Huang Zhong? Huang Zhong is the commander of the flying bear army. He is in charge of the big and small affairs of the flying bear army. When something goes wrong, Huang Zhong is in charge of it. "


    Ma Liang said: "dare not go!"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "why?"


    Ma Liang explained: "near General Huang''s camp, there are spies set up by centurions and Shichang. We can''t get close to them. I can''t help it, so I risked my life to ask the general to make decisions for us. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she had a cold look in her eyes.There are many bad habits in Guo Si''s Xiliang army. Zhang Xiu can be sure that the soldiers who have been transferred from Huang Zhao and Zhang Shi and others will not be able to deduct any of their salaries once they are paid.


    Since Huang Zhong wanted to subsidize all the soldiers of the flying bear army, the Xiliang army, which had been loyal to Zhang Xiu, must have got the money. Only in this way can people know that the subsidy is 100 yuan.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "do you know who is involved in the embezzlement of money this time?"


    Ma Liang still fell on the ground and replied: "the villain''s boss, Zhao Yongshi, and the centurion, Yue Qingtan, embezzled money. I don''t know the rest. "


    Zhang Xiu''s mind turns, thinking about coping strategies.


    For Zhang Xiu, things can be big or small.


    It''s very simple for him to deal with it. Even if he only needs one sentence, Huang Zhong can deal with it immediately. But after thinking about it in her heart, Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to deal with it easily.


    Because this is a bad habit in the Xiliang army, we must stop it.


    This is the bottom line.


    Don''t trample!


    Anyone who tramples on it will die.


    Zhang Xiu soon had a decision in her heart. Her eyes were sharp and she ordered, "come on!"


    "Yes


    A soldier came forward and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu said, "inform Huang Zhong to gather all the flying bear troops to the school yard."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ma Liang kneeling on the ground and said, "you have courage and conscience. You will appreciate it very much. You let Ben decide for you. Ben will deal with it now. Let''s go. Ben will go to the school


    "General Xie!"


    Ma Liang stood up quickly.


    Hope rises on his face, expecting that Zhang Xiu can sweep away the old atmosphere.


    When he was under Guo Si''s command, he was also a centurion, but he was upright and not good at drilling. Because he contradicted the superior, he was demoted to Wu Chang, but Ma Liang still shouldn''t get used to it.


    It''s a common practice for the army to make concessions.


    Under Guo Si''s command, Ma Liang got used to it, because Guo Si himself was a man who scraped the ground three feet. It was useless to search around and appeal to Guo Si.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, his temper has gone wrong again.


    Try it.


    Ma Liang hopes that the army can be entrusted with life and death between his colleagues, rather than fighting for each other''s interests.


    This is not what Ma Liang wants to see.


    With Zhang Xiu, he soon arrived at the school.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came quickly.


    Huang Zhong led the 8000 flying bear troops to come quickly and ordered the soldiers to line up. After arranging the soldiers, Huang Zhong came to Zhang Xiu''s body, saluted with his fist and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Hansheng, I heard that you paid a subsidy today, and each soldier was given a subsidy of 100 yuan."


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong did not hesitate and said directly: "the Xiliang army under Guo Si was extremely poor and had been deprived of numerous military salaries. Because there are too many deductions, I can''t make up for my humble position. "


    "Only subsidies can be given to make up for one or two."


    "As a result, the despicable paid a subsidy, and each person paid 100 yuan."


    Huang Zhong continued: "in addition, the salary of the soldiers in the Xiliang army under Guo Si''s command was adjusted to be the same as that of the soldiers in our army."


    Zhang xiudao: "the practice is good, but it has not been carried out."


    Huang Zhong immediately frowned.


    He is a veteran in the army and is familiar with the situation in the army. As soon as Zhang Xiu said that he didn''t carry it out, he knew that there might be a case of embezzlement, otherwise Zhang Xiu would not find him personally.


    Huang Zhong also held a glimmer of hope in his heart. What if it wasn''t the reduction of military salaries? He was calm and asked, "Lord, but what happened?"

 Chapter 249

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp. She pointed to Ma Liang and said, "his name is Ma Liang. He''s a soldier under your command. He said that only 10% of the money he has got. "


    "How terrible is it that only 10% of a hundred Wen falls into the hands of soldiers?"


    , "the most important thing is that he dare not go outside your tent to report the news, because your tent is outside the eyes of the general of the army, and can''t get anywhere near it."


    "What does that mean?"


    "It means that you, the chief General of the army, can''t even carry out your will."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think?"


    Brush!


    Huang Zhong''s face suddenly changed.


    He hears the coldness and dissatisfaction in Zhang Xiu''s tone, and he is also angry in his heart.


    I didn''t expect that it was really money.


    Previously, when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he guessed that there might be something wrong with the money. But in my heart, I still have a little hope that nothing like this has happened.


    I didn''t expect it to come true.


    After stabilizing his mood, Huang Zhong said, "Lord, I will deal with my humble position immediately."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the general of the flying bear army and said in a voice: "the soldiers under your command, with the centurion commander''s soldiers as the unit, line up in their own ranks. All the money withheld should be thoroughly investigated, and none of them can be missed."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong is ordered to act immediately.


    At this time, Huang Zhong did not dare to delay any more.


    He quickly gave the order, only to see the army moving, in a short period of time, all the soldiers with 100 people square, quickly separate the array.


    Huang Zhong was originally prepared to select people from the army and let the generals make an investigation, but he didn''t report to Zhang Xiu directly and mobilized Ma Liang and his soldiers to inquire.


    Ma Liang and others know the situation and can get the real news.


    In just a quarter of an hour, the news gathered in front of Zhang Xiu. Twenty five centurions in the army embezzled money, and even the three song captains were involved.


    There are countless generals and generals involved.


    Rows of people kneel on the ground, bound by backhands, enough to form a line.


    Zhang Xiu looks deep in her eyes. Deep in her eyes, her eyes are full of cold light. These military generals involved in the incident accounted for nearly a third of the officials.


    The Xiliang army is rotten.


    However, he was familiar with his generals, but he did not see them do so.


    In the case of corruption among military officials, no matter how many orders are repeated, there are policies above and Countermeasures below, which will not play any role.


    Huang Zhong was also shocked to see such a large erosive camp.


    It''s terrible.


    Even when he was in Changsha County, although he was beaten down, he had never seen such erosion. At the moment, the song directors, centurions and so on, all of them look dignified.


    Although these people were arrested, there were a lot of people. Look at me and I''ll look at you. After looking around, I found that there were a lot of people arrested. They were all relieved.


    Because the law does not blame the public.


    There are too many people to punish.


    Huang Zhao shook his head and sneered in his eyes. He didn''t get involved in such a thing.


    In fact, he was contacted early in the morning. A Qu Chang, who was once under Guo Si''s command, found him and hoped to cut his salary with Huang Zhao, but Huang Zhao refused at that time and didn''t get involved.


    He followed Zhang Xiu and did not lack money.


    There''s no need to do it.


    What''s more, he knows Zhang Xiu''s character clearly. The military orders and prohibitions are absolutely forbidden to embezzle money.


    That''s the bottom line.


    Huang Zhao once tried to persuade, but he didn''t expect that there were so many people.


    Zhang Shi stood beside Huang Zhao and said, "Lao Huang, what do you think the guild will do about this? This involves countless officials. It''s hard to deal with it. "


    Huang Zhao said, "I don''t know. Let''s see."


    People''s eyes, Qi brush staring at Zhang Xiu.


    It depends on how Zhang Xiu handles it.


    While everyone was waiting, Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over all the generals who violated the law and said in a loud voice: "all the soldiers in the army go to the battlefield with their heads."


    "The money they earn is hard money."


    "It''s for life."


    "But under such circumstances, there are still people who are desperate to take advantage of the soldiers'' money."


    "It''s unforgivable."


    Zhang Xiu''s tone, unprecedented severe, said: "this time there are many generals involved in the case, looking at it, it''s frightening. Once all of them are cut down, I''m afraid the bear army will be shocked. "


    "Don''t cut them off. These people are in the army. That''s a cancer."


    "I, Zhang Xiu, have never been afraid of a strong man breaking his wrist. As long as he touches the bottom line of the army, he will be killed without mercy."


    "No matter how many people there are, it''s not wrong to kill them."Zhang Xiu''s words came out loud and clear. When the generals heard them, their faces suddenly changed color, and there was no light cloud and wind before them, because they recognized Zhang Xiu''s killing intention.


    More listen to the determination of Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not good.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "fighting on the battlefield, without mutual help, mutual protection and mutual assistance, how can we kill the enemy? The battlefield has never been a place for one person to show off his ability, but a place for the team to fight. "


    "Everyone on the battlefield should be able to entrust life and death to each other."


    "But this is how you treat your colleagues."


    "Damn you


    Zhang Xiu pointed to the offending generals and said in a loud voice: "if you violate the law and deduct military salaries, none of you can escape. Come on, cut everyone down and leave none. "


    Brush!


    A general, Qi Qi color, no one thought, Zhang Xiu will be so strong.


    To kill everyone.


    It''s too lethal.


    "General Zhang, I''m wrong."


    "Ask general Zhang to spare his life!"


    "I''m wrong. I beg General Zhang to forgive me. I''ll never do it again."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there are many shouts.


    The generals begged for mercy one by one, but they didn''t work at all. After Zhang Xiu''s expressionless order, she looks at the motionless soldiers and throws them in her eyes. In a flash, the soldiers who have been waiting for her quickly rush into the room, swing their swords and kill the general who committed the crime.


    Some people want to escape, but their hands are tied by the backhand, so they can''t escape at all.


    Head after head, falling to the ground.


    A corpse, falling down.


    Screams, one after another.


    The red blood flowing on the ground, gathered into a lake, making the air, are filled with the smell of blood.


    After half a sound, the scream disappeared.


    All the generals who committed the crime were killed, and their heads were cut off. At this moment, even the rest of the generals who didn''t commit crimes were shivering.


    They looked at Zhang Xiu in awe.


    Zhang Xiu taught them a lesson.


    If you deduct military pay, you will lose your head. The general of the army seems to have a Shangfang sword hanging on his head, but for the ordinary soldiers in the army, Zhang Xiu''s action is simply very pleasant.


    Long live General Zhang


    Suddenly, Ma Liang began to shout.


    After investigating for Huang Zhong, he stood in the army. Seeing the killed generals, Ma Liang''s heart is very happy, and he admires Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Long live General Zhang


    The soldiers under Ma Liang''s command were also extremely excited and followed with a shout.


    Long live General Zhang


    Long live General Zhang


    ¡­¡­


    Gradually, more and more soldiers began to shout. One by one, the soldiers shout loudly. They look into Zhang Xiu''s eyes with fanaticism and awe, but they are more convinced.


    Zhang Xiu''s action, let them really believe, follow Zhang Xiu is promising.


    Their interests can be protected.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the shouting soldiers and was happy in her heart.


    Morale is available!


    Although these soldiers of Xiliang army are weak in fighting capacity and thin in face, they will surely be able to break out the strongest fighting capacity and become a hundred battle division as long as they are trained and taught by many schools.

 Chapter 250

    After Zhang Xiu has killed the soldiers, she tells them to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger. Then she orders the killed generals to make up for the money of the soldiers. She stops staying and leaves the matter to Huang Zhong.


    Today''s event is a wake-up call.


    Even if Chen Dao and Gan Ning didn''t attend, they would have a thorough investigation after the news spread.


    You don''t want to lose face, do you?


    Zhang Xiu returned to the big account of the Chinese army. After a short stay, Jia Xu came back.


    On his way back, Jia Xu also heard from the soldiers that Zhang Xiu had killed hundreds of people in one breath. He said with emotion: "in a rage, my lord killed hundreds of generals, although it was a broken wrist, which had a certain impact. But in fact, it is the rebirth of a broken arm, which can set up a positive image and stabilize the morale of the army. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "there is no way to do this. Without killing these people, the army will not be able to gather combat effectiveness."


    Jia Xu said: "it is true, and only by doing so can we build the Xiliang army that really belongs to the Lord. Even though many of them once belonged to Guo Si, they could not work for him after this. My Lord, this move is highly praised. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Wenhe is so wrong. I''m just very angry. Originally, the soldiers didn''t earn much, but there were still some people who were so underpaid. It''s not enough to calm their anger if they didn''t kill them. "


    Jia Xu also nodded in agreement.


    Don''t go to the battlefield, don''t know the hardships of soldiers.


    Only on the battlefield, we know that soldiers fight on the battlefield, that is to carry the head to fight. If you are careless, you will lose your head. If you are careless, you will become disabled.


    It''s money for life.


    Jia Xu changed his words and said, "I''ve got all the information about Li Yu. Please have a look."


    Then he handed the letter.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and read it quickly.


    After reading it, Zhang Xiu looked a little surprised and said, "is Li Shi in such a tough situation now? You know, what he has mastered is the most elite Xiliang army. Now there are only 10000 Xiliang army left. "


    "Even the flying bear army under his command has less than 3000 people left."


    "The black sheep of the family."


    "At the beginning, Li Shi had as many as 50000 troops at the peak. Even when my uncle and I left Guanzhong last year, we still had more than 30000 troops, and we still had enough fighting capacity."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s only a year or so. Li Yu is too weak."


    Jia Xu nodded his head and said, "there is not much grain in Li Yu''s granary. But even if it''s not much food, it''s also Li''s most precious. The granary is located in the southwest of the county. If the Lord wants to do something, he will take the granary first and work hard to defeat Li''s army. As long as you kill Li, you will be able to have a foothold in Chang''an. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Li he was destroyed, and Guo Si was destroyed. In the Sili area of Chang''an, the people who could compete with Zhang Xiu had been lost. However, it is not easy to govern Guanzhong area.


    Zhang xiudao: "but before sending troops, we have to send sentries to confirm before we take action."


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately transferred to the general in charge of information, immediately arranged to go on.


    ¡­¡­


    Hongnong County, Huayin county.


    On the western border of Huayin County, Duan''s garrison camp.


    Duan Xun was stationed in the west of Hongnong county. He gave repeated orders to his soldiers to prohibit soldiers from invading the people, and even sent troops to protect the people in his area. Under such circumstances, the stability of Hongnong was created. Many businessmen gathered, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. The territory was slightly rich, and the people''s life was tolerable.


    It was Duan who restrained the soldiers that made him admired by Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao has long arranged for people to persuade Duan to surrender, but Duan has not yet agreed.


    He is waiting for the price.


    At least, he would choose to submit to Cao Cao only if he was satisfied with the conditions.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    A thin, middle-aged man with a beard under his jaw, dressed in armor, was sitting upright and reading.


    This person is Duan Wen.


    He had just turned forty when he was in his prime.


    Duan''s elite troops are 20000. With other auxiliary soldiers in the army, the number of soldiers under his command is at least 2560, which is a huge force.


    Because Duan has a lot of troops, even if he lets his soldiers reclaim the land, he is barely self-sufficient in food and grass.


    After all, he is not good at farming.


    The grain harvested in the field is barely enough, and there is no more surplus.


    While Duan was reading, the tent curtain rolled up and a middle-aged scholar came in.


    His name is Yang Cong, a counselor of Duan Rong.


    In fact, when Jia Xu left Guanzhong last year, he saw Duan''s wisdom. He first went to Hongnong county to join Duan, hoping to gain a foothold under Duan''s command.


    However, when Jia Xu came to Duan Lu''s command, Duan Lu thought that Jia Xu''s city was too deep to control, and he thought that Jia Xu was a threat, so he had been idle without any rights.Finally, Jia Xu left Duan Xu.


    When Yang Cong saw Duan, he handed over the report: "Lord, I just received the news from the sentinel. Wu Xi withdrew from the direction of Wuguan, which is less than five miles away from our camp. Soon, Wu Xi will arrive. "


    "Here comes Wu Xi?"


    Duan Xu''s eyes narrowed and inquired: "let him kill Guo Si, is it successful?"


    "Failed!"


    Yang Cong shook his head and said, "the sentinel saw that it was Wu Xi and asked about the general situation. Wu Xi went to cover up Guo Si. When he came to Wuguan, he met the army led by Zhang Xiu and was defeated. Even he was injured. "


    Section simmer Mou son is cold come down, frown a way: "Zhang Xiu entered a pass?"


    "Yes


    Yang Cong nodded.


    Duan Xun''s face became dignified and asked, "Sir, what do you think is the impact of Zhang Xiu''s entry into Guanzhong?"


    Yang Cong said with a light smile: "at the beginning, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji had nowhere to go before they went south to Nanyang County. Now, Zhang Xiu just took some good fortune to make some contributions. He is not worth mentioning in front of the general. "


    "No, no, no!"


    Duan Xu shakes his head and disagrees with Yang Cong''s analysis.


    He said solemnly: "I got news from Cao Jun that Cao Cao was defeated by Zhang Xiu. Even Cao Cao''s cunning people were defeated by Zhang Xiu. It is conceivable that Zhang Xiu is very powerful. If we underestimate Zhang Xiu, we will suffer a great loss. "


    Yang conglian said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Duan Xu thought about it and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu has entered the Wuguan pass and the Guanzhong pass, and there is no conflict with us. If we don''t take the initiative to provoke him, or even make friends with him, he will not attack us. Yang Cong, you go to order, mobilize the army to lay an ambush. When Wu Xi arrives in the army, kill him. "


    "Ah


    Yang Cong was surprised.


    He didn''t follow the idea of Duan Geng. He couldn''t figure out that Duan Geng would kill Wu Xi.


    Duan simmered in a deep voice: "this general has always done nothing to the people under his jurisdiction. He has also repeatedly ordered that the soldiers should not act recklessly. Wu Xi followed Guo Si and slaughtered the people wantonly. This kind of people can''t be changed. What''s more, if you kill Wu Xi, you can also send Wu Xi''s body to Zhang Xiu''s hands and make love to her. Why not? "


    Yang Cong said again, "my Lord is wise!"


    Duan simmered: "if Zhang Xiu doesn''t have the idea of attacking me and accepts Wu Xi''s body, she won''t make any more moves. If Zhang Xiu wants to kill her, I''m afraid she will take action. This is also an opportunity to test Zhang Xiu. "


    Yang Cong pondered and said: "Lord, with our strength at the moment, even if the Lord is sure to win against Zhang Xiu. With the power of the Lord, it''s not difficult to sweep Li


    Duan said: "after Li he was killed, we are the only one left in Guanzhong. Cao Cao will be afraid of us, and will not provide food and weapons. In today''s situation, although we have just enough food and grass, once war begins, we will not have enough food and grass, nor weapons. If you don''t fight, try not to fight. "


    For Duan, he has plans.


    He intends to submit to the court.


    Besides, Duan Xun himself didn''t plan to be independent. He felt too tired. He liked to follow the imperial court.


    When Yang got up, he didn''t understand his intention.


    After a short time, Wu Xi returned with his soldiers. When his soldiers arrived, they were ambushed by ambush soldiers as soon as they entered the camp and were ready to meet Duan.


    Wu Xi was shocked and ordered to retreat.


    However, Wu Xi''s soldiers had no fighting power, and they were defeated quickly under the attack of Duan Lu''s soldiers.


    Wu Xi was killed soon.


    Wu Xi''s soldiers are also under control.


    After Duan Rong reorganized Wu Xi''s army, he asked people to deal with Wu Xi''s body with lime, so he arranged for the soldiers to take Wu Xi''s body and go straight to Wuguan, ready to hand Wu Xi over to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 251

    Wuguan, Zhangxiu barracks.


    Nowadays, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao are all training their own soldiers to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army as soon as possible.


    As a matter of fact, whether it is the flying bear army under the command of Huang Zhong, the fierce tiger army under the command of Gan Ning, or the Langya battalion under the command of Chen Dao, after the expansion, the combat effectiveness will inevitably be flooded. It is impossible to be like an armyman, so we need to strengthen training to stabilize the combat effectiveness.


    So the training of soldiers is in full swing.


    In public training, Zhang Xiu is not idle, because there are regular soldiers around him.


    In addition to the three major armies, there is also the conventional army.


    This is Zhang Xiu in charge of training.


    While Zhang Xiu is busy training the soldiers, she is also waiting for the news from the sentinel. Only when the sentry finds out Li''s specific situation and finds out the location of Li''s grain hoarding house can he launch a surprise attack.


    Everyone is busy.


    However, Guo Si is very relaxed.


    Guo Si recuperates every day in his bed. Fortunately, it''s April now. It''s not too hot and it''s warm as spring. If it is in the hot summer, Guo Si is lying on his bed every day, it''s really hot.


    Two days later, Guo Si''s wound had scabbed, but he was still unable to move.


    Move a little and the wound will crack.


    Every time the wound breaks, Guo Si will curse Zhang Xiu, because these are caused by Zhang Xiu. If it had not been for Zhang Xiu''s 50 army staff, he would not have such a tragic situation today.


    On this day, in the evening.


    Guo Si, under the service of the soldiers, had dinner and had nothing to do, so he was ready to carry out the plan he had pondered for the past two days.


    He wanted to drum up his old department.


    He wants to take power in secret.


    Guo Si is not willing to be lonely.


    He called the soldiers around him, looked at them and said, "well, can I trust you?"


    Zhou Quan is the name of the soldier.


    He is a member of Guo Si and has been following him all the time. After Guo Si was scolded by Zhang xiuzhang, his integrity has not changed. He still stays at Guo Si''s side to serve him and take care of his daily life.


    When Zhou Quan heard Guo Si''s words, he knew that there was something important in his heart. With a plop, he knelt on the ground and knocked on his head and said, "the general gave me the life of a villain. Villain, willing to die for the general. General, but there are arrangements, even if it''s going through fire and water, villains will not hesitate. "


    "Good!"


    Guo Si, with a satisfied smile on his face, praised: "he is worthy of being valued and loyal."


    "Get up and talk!"


    Guo Si gave an order.


    "Here it is


    I got up when I was ordered to.


    Guo Si is still lying on the bed. He looks up at Zhou Quan standing in the tent. He thinks it''s hard to look up and let Zhou Quan sit down. Then he feels better.


    Guo Si said: "all around, the generals under the general in the past, such as Yue Qingtan, Cheng Rui, Xie Fang, are loyal to the general. Ben will have an arrangement and they won''t refuse. You go to see Yue Qingtan quietly and invite him here. I will have something to tell him. "


    Overall embarrassed way: "general, Yue Qingtan already died."


    "Dead?"


    Guo Si opened his eyes and said with an incredible look: "he''s so good. How did he suddenly die? Is it Zhang Xiu''s intention to clear up and get rid of my people? "


    Zhou Quan replied: "it was Yue Qingtan who withheld the soldiers'' money and was executed by Zhang Xiu. The whole army knows about it. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Guo Si scolded: "I don''t want to see what''s going on now. Yue Qingtan still dare to commit a crime against the wind. Doesn''t that mean that he gave his life to Zhang Xiu? Stupid


    Zhou Quan did not comment.


    Guo Si turned his eyes and then said, "no matter Yue Qingtan, go to inform Cheng Rui and let him come to see me."


    Zhou Quan said, "Cheng Rui is dead, too."


    Brush!


    Guo Si''s face changed and his brows were locked.


    He had a bad feeling in his heart, and asked, "is Cheng Rui also involved in the embezzlement of money?"


    "Yes


    Zhou Quan nodded and answered.


    Guo Si is still not reconciled, continue to ask: "Jiefang and others?"


    "Dead!"


    Zhou Quan answers again.


    Guo Si gulp, swallow a mouthful of saliva, the rough face, showing a helpless look. People loyal to him died one by one, which reduced the number of people he could use.


    For him, it''s unbearable.


    Guo Si clenched his fist, looked a little angry, and asked, "how many people died in the end?"


    When Zhou Quan got Guo Si''s question, he replied, "all the major generals under the general''s command were executed, and none of them survived."


    Guo Si said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhou Quan explained: "Huang Zhong reorganized the army. He felt that the Xiliang army, which once belonged to you, had a hard time. So he allocated a lot of money to each soldier, and each soldier was given 100 yuan as a subsidy to the soldiers in the army.""Yue Qingtan, Cheng Rui and others all embezzled military salaries, so that the money that fell into the hands of the soldiers was only ten Wen."


    "It''s been poked out."


    "When Zhang Xiu knew about it, she cut down all the Qu Chang, Bai Fu Chang, Shi Chang and Wu Chang who were involved in the case. This is in front of the whole army, and everyone knows it. "


    "It was a bloody scene."


    Zhou Quan''s face was also a look of fear, saying: "after this, all the generals under the general''s command were killed."


    Guo Si didn''t know about it.


    His buttock is seriously injured. He''s in the camp all day. He doesn''t know the news outside. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, the situation changed, and all his generals were killed.


    Under this premise, it is very difficult for him to control the army again.


    Guo Si''s control over the army was based on his control over the generals. Without the general in charge of ordinary soldiers, Guo Si is a bare general. It is impossible for any soldiers to obey Guo Si''s orders.


    Guo Si was lost in his heart.


    Soon, Guo Si adjusted his state and thought of another way.


    Guo Si said, "Zhou Quan, since all these people are dead, go to Huang Zhong. When you see Huang Zhong, you say that I have something important to discuss with him. "


    "Here it is


    He thought about it and said, "general, can you wait a little longer? It''s just dark now, and there are many people walking around the camp. Now it''s easy to find Huang Zhong. When it''s late at night, it''s not too late for villains to go. At that time, it was not easy for news to leak. "


    Guo Si praised: "good, good! I didn''t expect you to have such intelligence. "


    Zhou QUANDAO said: "the general is wrong."


    Guo si no longer urged him to talk with Zhou Quan about what happened in the army recently. The more he understood, the colder he felt. All his soldiers were scattered. All the generals loyal to him were killed. At this time, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will kill him without hesitation if he only needs a command from the soldiers under his command.


    Guo Si has a deep hatred for Zhang Xiu.


    This guy is so hateful.


    If it were not for Zhang Xiu, he would not have fallen into such a field.


    Late at night, he left the camp and went to Huang Zhong''s camp. Along the way, he did not meet anyone. When he arrived outside Huang Zhong''s camp, he looked at the soldiers on guard and said, "I''m under the command of General Guo Si. I have something important to see General Huang."


    "Wait!"


    The soldier glanced at everything with a look of disdain in his eyes.


    The soldiers in the army didn''t like Guo Si.


    The same is true of the soldiers around Huang Zhong. The soldiers on guard entered the barracks to report. Soon, the soldiers came out and said, "go in!"


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhou Quan didn''t care about the soldier''s attitude. He bowed his hand to thank him and entered the camp.


    Although it is late at night, Huang Zhong is still dealing with military affairs. He took charge of the flying bear army for the first time, and he was busy training soldiers.


    Hearing the sound of footsteps, Huang Zhong put down his writing brush, looked up and said, "Guo Si asked you to come. What''s the matter?"


    Zhou Quan said, "General Guo asked General Huang to go. There is something important to discuss."


    "What''s the matter?" Huang Zhong asked


    Zhou shook his head and said, "I don''t know what it is. Now general Guo is physically injured and can''t go down to the ground to walk around. He can''t come here in person, so I beg General Huang to walk in person. "


    Huang Zhong''s mind turned and thought about it for a while. Then he said, "well, I''ll go."


    "Thank you, general!"


    After listening carefully, I felt at ease.

 Chapter 252

    Huang Zhongyi does not remove armor, waist hanging sword, stride out of the barracks, go to Guo Si barracks. Soon, Huang Zhong arrived outside Guo Si''s camp. After he entered, he stood in front of Guo Si''s bed and looked down at him with a look of disdain in his eyes.


    He thinks Guo Si wants to do something.


    The problem is that Guo Si is no different from a salted fish now.


    No strength at all!


    No ability at all!


    There''s still something to do. That''s death.


    Huang Zhong''s tone was blunt and unfriendly: "General Guo came to me. I don''t know what''s the matter?"


    Guo Si said: "comprehensive!"


    Zhou Quan replied, "yes!"


    Guo Si ordered: "help this general up."


    On hearing this, Zhou Quan hurried forward, carefully helped Guo Si up and stood aside. Although Guo Si was standing, his back was slightly arched, because once his back was straight, his buttocks might be tight, involving the wound.


    He can only bow his back.


    Guo Si looks at Huang Zhong with sharp eyes and looks at him. After a long time, Guo Si said: "General Huang is under the command of Zhang Xiu. Is he a general of benefit?"


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong answered directly.


    Guo Si tut tut two times, said with emotion: "when Zhang Xiu arrived at Wuguan with the army to meet Wu Xi''s army, I would have seen you Huang Zhong''s style. With a long sword, you can fight in all directions. No one is your enemy. It''s really powerful. "


    Huang Zhong said, "General Guo has been wrongly praised."


    Guo Si continued: "with your ability, it''s really a grievance to be a mere general."


    Huang Zhong''s mind moves.


    He understood Guo Si''s intention, which was to attract him, otherwise he would not say so.


    This is Guo Si''s diction.


    Huang Zhong did not immediately refuse, but said: "what does general Guo mean by saying this?"


    Guo Si''s face, with a trace of pride, said: "I will observe your martial arts. It''s extraordinary. In the past years, Lu Bu was a marquis and a general by virtue of his martial arts. Your martial arts skills are no less than those of Lu Bu. You can also be a marquis and a general. Only, it depends on whether you have the will or not. "


    Huang Zhong continued: "how can I say yes? If you don''t want to, how can you say it? "


    Guo Si replied: "as long as you like, the appointment of marquis and general is just around the corner. If you don''t want to, take it as if I didn''t say it. "


    After a pause, Guo Si said: "you have the idea of climbing up, and Ben will have experience and contacts to plan for you. As long as you follow my orders and act for me, I will recommend you to the imperial court to be a marquis and a general. "


    Huang Zhong sneered: "You Guo Si now, want military power, no military power, want money, no money, more trapped in the army, where there is any spare force to help me."


    Guo Si said, "it''s not difficult to help you."


    Huang Zhong said: "self righteous."


    Guo Si laughed and said, "Huang Zhong, do you really think that Ben will be exhausted now?"


    "Of course!"


    Huang Zhong answered without hesitation.


    He wondered what kind of cards Guo Si had. If you can find out Guo Si''s bottom card for Zhang Xiu, it is also beneficial to the development of Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Huang Zhong is still insincere.


    Guo Si said in a deep voice: "Huang Zhong, it''s not difficult to gather soldiers and recruit talents in this troubled world as long as you have money. As it happens, I have this inside story. I still have enough money. As long as you yield to me, you have people and I have money, it''s not difficult to build another army. "


    Huang Zhong disdained to say: "Guo Si, what is your money? Rice paper alone is the source of wealth under my Lord''s command, and it can reap countless wealth. Can you match your point? "


    Guo Si also knew about Xuan paper.


    This is now the most popular paper, has replaced bamboo slips and so on.


    It''s really a cornucopia.


    However, Guo Si also held his head high and said: "when Dong Xiang was alive, he once excavated the royal tombs and excavated countless treasures."


    "Dong Xiang has been in Chang''an for many years and has accumulated countless money."


    "After the death of Dong Xiang, part of his money fell into Li''s hands and the other part was in my hands."


    "Now, although my troops have been disintegrated, it is not difficult for me to make a comeback. With the money in my hand, it''s not difficult to pull up an army of more than ten thousand. "


    Guo Si said: "Huang Zhong, as long as you are willing to follow me, then I can guarantee that you will receive the best treatment. Even, I can give you military power. "


    "I have to think about it," Huang said


    In his heart, however, he began to think about it.


    Guo Si said that it is not a small number to pull up a team of more than ten thousand people.


    Huang Zhong didn''t know how many cards Guo si still had, so he snorted: "in this troubled time, money is important. But the most important thing is food. If you want to build an army, you have to have armor and weapons. Without that, even if you have a lot of money, it won''t be of any use. "Guo Si confidently said: "grain, this will have; armor and weapons, this will have the same."


    "What do you have?"


    Huang Zhong snorted and said with disdain, "if you have food, all the soldiers under your command look pale and thin. They seem to be hungry one by one. You have weapons and armour. Why are your soldiers so ragged that they can''t match their armour? "


    Guo Si raised his head and said, "even if I have money, grain and armor, can I use them at will? What''s more, soldiers in the army are cheap and can''t be too nice to them. I''ve opened up the supply. No matter how much food and weapons there are, it''s not enough. "


    Huang Zhong asked, "how much food do you have?"


    Guo Sishen said mysteriously, "I can''t tell you the amount of grain in my hand. Huang Zhong, as long as you are willing to submit to me, then you can control countless soldiers. Have you thought about it? "


    "I have to think about it again," Huang said


    Guo Si bent down hard, took out a jade from his bed and said, "do you see this jade? Its texture mellow, touch up, not the slightest cold, but there is a trace of soft warmth. This jade is worth as much as a county. There will be many such gems. Here, as a gift, this jade is for you. "


    "Thank you very much."


    Huang Zhong is not polite either. Take it directly.


    After Huang Zhong took the jade, Huang Zhong didn''t delay much and left soon.


    Seeing Huang Zhong''s departure, Zhou Quan worried: "general, Huang Zhong said on the surface that he would agree, but in fact, he may have two sides and may not be willing to submit to the general. You gave it to Yubi, or maybe it''s meat buns beating dogs. "


    "Ha..."


    Guo Si sneered and said, "if you take advantage of the general, how can you not pay the price?"


    "Give him Yubi, it''s a dissension plan!"


    "You take my money and buy off some people. Then, you spread the news that Huang Zhong has received Yubi. Huang Zhong is now a respected General of Zhang Xiu, but when the news comes out, there will be cracks in the relationship between the two sides. "


    "This is our chance."


    Guo Si looked forward and said, "under such circumstances, even if Huang Zhong doesn''t obey me, he can only obey me. Because at that point, Huang Zhong has no choice. "


    After hearing this, he showed respect on his face and praised: "the general is clever, and I admire him."


    Guo Si looked at Zhou Quan and said, "when Ben will make a comeback, I will give you a general to do it. As long as you behave well and be a marquis, that''s no problem


    "General Xie!"


    When you listen carefully, you get excited.


    Guo Si told Zhou Quan to help him lie down, but as soon as he lay down, he tore the scabby wound, so that blood overflowed from the wound that Guo Si showed his teeth in pain.


    On the other side, Huang Zhong took Yubi and didn''t go back to his camp. He went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp. He went into the camp, saw Zhang Xiu, and said directly: "Lord, Guo Si just found me, wanted to attract me, and gave me a jade."


    Zhang Xiu had a smile in her eyes and said, "Guo Si wants to dig the bottom of the wall, but what strength does he have to dig you?"


    Huang Zhong replied: "according to the understanding of general Mo, Guo Si said that he hoarded grain, countless treasures and jades, even armor and weapons. My Lord, although Guo Si''s soldiers have been reorganized, they haven''t been drained. He has to be put on trial again. "


    "What Hansheng said is reasonable!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "if Guo Si has such an idea, he will be put on trial again."


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order.


    As soon as the soldiers entered, Zhang Xiu said, "go and bring Guo Si here."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to make arrangements immediately.

 Chapter 253

    After a short time, Guo Si pouted his ass and limped into the camp. He was in his camp before, because he was standing all the time, the wound on his buttock cracked and a little bit of blood flowed out.


    Zhang Xiu orders the soldiers to bring Guo Si. The soldiers don''t give Guo Si any preferential treatment. They let Guo Si come directly. Although the distance is not far, but in Guo Si''s case, after walking for a while, the buttock was burning and the scabby wound cracked again.


    The red blood soaked the trousers at the bottom.


    So much so that the clothes were dyed red.


    As soon as he entered the camp, he saw Huang Zhong standing next to Zhang Xiu, his eyes widened, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.


    What''s the matter? Huang Zhong is here.


    Did Huang Zhong rebel?


    Guo Si felt worried in his heart, but he also cheered up and said with a smile: "it''s already late at night. General Zhang sent someone to find me. I don''t know what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu looked relaxed and said: "in the evening, don''t you also arrange someone to go to Huang Zhong. It''s normal for you to find Huang Zhong and I''ll find you again. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Guo Si smiles.


    He took a look at Huang Zhong, but he ignored him.


    This made Guo Si''s heart sink.


    He had a bad feeling.


    However, although Guo Si was a little flustered, he also quickly used his brain to think about solutions. The money and food he has saved are the lifeblood of him. If they are there, he will be able to make a comeback.


    Without these, he''s done.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "I''ve heard from Huang Zhong that you Guo si still have great ambition to be a marquis to Huang Zhong and make a comeback. Where do you hide your wealth, treasures and grain? "


    "No, I really don''t!"


    Guo Si shook his head and denied it directly.


    He can''t admit it.


    Once he admitted that he had lost food and money, even if he tried to leave Zhang Xiu, he would not have a chance to make a comeback.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you should be very clear about what kind of person you are and what kind of character you are. You know, it''s you who suffer from lying in front of Ben. "


    Guo Si''s cheek twitched slightly.


    At the thought of Zhang Xiu''s tyrannical nature, he was scared in his eyes.


    But Guo Si held back and gritted his teeth: "I''m dissatisfied with the status quo and want to gain military power, but I really don''t have food. I lied to Huang Zhong when I said there was money and food. If I have money and food, how can I make the soldiers so miserable? General Zhang, please see clearly. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "do you think I believe it?"


    Guo Si said: "every sentence I say is true. I can''t lie. General Zhang, you must believe me. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I believe you have food and money. Nowadays, the people in Guanzhong are very poor and lack of clothing and food. Under such a premise, General Guo''s contribution to the provision of food and money lies in the country. He would have appreciated you for the people. "


    "It''s no use thanking me!"


    Guo Si''s head kept shaking, and he couldn''t even care about the pain in his buttocks. He explained: "I just talk at random. I lied to Huang Zhong. I don''t have any food or any money in my hand. General Zhang, I''m telling the truth. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I don''t believe it!"


    Guo Si felt very tired.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t believe what he said.


    For a moment, Guo Si didn''t know how to explain. He even had to bite his teeth.


    Hold on, everything is safe.


    We can''t make it, we have to make it.


    Seeing that Guo Si didn''t let go, Zhang Xiu didn''t have much patience and said, "it seems that you don''t want to talk to me well. It''s the same old way. Serve with a big punishment. You got 50 sticks in your ass before. It didn''t hurt much. That''s it. I''ll let the soldiers discount your left leg and right leg first, and let you lie on the bed all the time. "


    Guo Si was eager in his heart and said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, your willful and reckless actions will lead to the loss of people''s hearts."


    "Heart?"


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "I only care about the thoughts of the soldiers under my command, not your Guo Si''s thoughts. Guo Si, you have to think clearly. If we don''t talk about it now, I''m afraid our legs will be discounted when we want to talk about it. "


    Guo Si''s deep eyes once again swept a trace of fear.


    Before that, he was cleaned up by Zhang Xiu.


    He is very afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Although Guo Si was afraid, he thought that food and money were the last lifeline, so he was replaced by firmness. He said, "I really didn''t tell lies. I''m not satisfied that you organized my army and wanted to tear a hole, so I deliberately deceived Huang Zhong. General Zhang, it''s my fault. Please help me


    Zhang Xiu kept on arguing with Guo Si and said coldly, "Guo Si, I will ask you again. Don''t you really know?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Guo Si answered again.


    He was biting his teeth with a helpless look on his face. Even if Zhang Xiu wants to be rough, he can''t help it. He can only hold on.Zhang xiudao: "take people down."


    Soldiers get Zhang Xiu''s order, directly drag Guo Si, straight out.


    Guo Si begged for mercy and said that he was wronged. He hoped that Zhang Xiu would raise his hand, but Zhang Xiu ignored him. In Guo Si''s constant struggle, he was dragged out of the barracks. Soon, there was a scream outside the barracks.


    Guo Si''s buttocks were injured. Now his legs are broken. He can''t stand on the ground or lie on the ground. It''s very uncomfortable.


    He was dragged into the camp by the soldiers, lying on the ground.


    Bean sized sweat oozes from the forehead.


    His face was full of pain.


    Compared with the wound on the buttock, his leg is injured on the bone, pain into the bone marrow, so that he is in agony. Waves of pain came, and he wanted to cut off his legs.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Guo Si with no pity on her face.


    Guo Si deserves it!


    Such a person, damn it!


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "Guo Si, are you willing to tell us where the grain and money are stored?"


    Guo Si suffered from the pain of fracture and was unwilling to say it now. Biting his teeth and suffering, he said: "General Zhang, I always don''t tell lies. I didn''t cheat you. I didn''t have food and money. "


    "Never lie?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "do you coax ghosts? Just now, you admitted that it was cheating Huang Zhong. I''ll ask you a question, say it or not. If I don''t, I will be punished further. "


    Guo Si shivered.


    He was afraid.


    However, food and money are his lifeblood, and he is unwilling to say anything.


    Guo Si said again, "General Zhang, I really don''t have one."


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "I thought that if you cooperate honestly, I will not punish you any more. But if you don''t want to cooperate, I can only continue to fight. Next, you can''t keep your ten toes. Come and break Guo Si''s ten toes. "


    Boom!!


    Guo Si was struck by lightning.


    It''s said that the fingers are linked to the heart, so is the foot. It''s hard to break all toes. It''s a bone piercing pain. It''s unbearable damage.


    Guo Si''s body began to tremble.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu and roared, "Zhang Xiu, are you not afraid of retribution when you treat me like this?"


    "Retribution?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered and disdained: "what you said just now is the funniest joke I heard."


    "If you are punished, you will get retribution. Even if there is retribution, I, Zhang Xiu, will take it. You, Guo Si, are cruel to the common people and make them feel helpless. "


    "Damn you!"


    "People like you, who didn''t kill you, have already treated you favorably."


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "if you don''t want to say it, you should bear the pain of ten fingers."


    "Call me!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and gave a direct order.


    "Don''t fight, don''t fight!"


    Guo Si saw the soldiers rush up, he quickly asked for mercy.


    He was injured all over, and he couldn''t bear to think that if he was broken ten toes. At this moment, Guo Si deeply regretted that he should not tell Huang Zhong his cards.


    So much so that Zhang Xiu cleaned it up.


    When his legs were broken, he had to tell Zhang Xiu where his granary was stored.


    It''s a huge loss.


    Guo Si looked at Zhang Xiu anxiously. He was reluctant to bargain and said, "General Zhang, I''d like to tell you where the grain is stored and where the money and armor are stored, but I have a request."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you don''t have the right to talk about conditions, say it or not."


    Strong words come from Zhang Xiu.


    Guo Si''s face was full of tears. Zhang Xiu didn''t give him any way to live.

 Chapter 254

    "Say, I say!"


    Guo Si didn''t even have the right to speak, didn''t even insist for a moment, so he directly admitted to counseling. He is to want to insist again, want to ask for some benefits, but in front of Zhang Xiu, he did not have the courage to insist.


    Zhang Xiu did not ask at all, but directly used violence.


    He can''t afford to be punished.


    He can''t bear the pain.


    Guo Si immediately said, "the grain I hoarded is also near the county. It''s just a mountain and a river away from the place where Guo Si hoarded. Food, grass and money are all stored in the village. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you sure?"


    "Sure, I''m very sure."


    The expression on Guo Si''s face was very firm: "what I thought at that time was that the most dangerous place was the safest place, so I didn''t hide the grain in other places, instead, I hid it not far away from Guo Si. The place where I hide my grain is in the dense mountain forest, which can''t be found. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how much grain is there?"


    Guo Si replied, "the grain I hoard is 250000 stone."


    "Two hundred and fifty thousand stones?"


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, this moment, also can''t help but show shocked look.


    You know, 250000 stone grain, even an army of more than 10000 soldiers, is enough for one or two years.


    It''s not a small number.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was shocked, Guo Si also had a touch of pride in his eyes, and said: "at the beginning, Dong Xiang''s dock had accumulated countless grains. After Dong Xiang was killed, Li Yu and I led our troops to Chang''an and divided up all the food. "


    "The grain I''ve got is stationed near the county."


    "In the follow-up, the grain I seized from all over the world was constantly sent to the granary. Over the years, no grain has been taken from it. On weekdays, all the grain needed by the army is collected from local areas and saved in order to save grain. "


    When Guo Si said that, he was very proud.


    He has accumulated the grain bit by bit.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "OK, OK, OK!"


    He said three good words in a row. Although he was not short of food or money, all the food and money had to be transported from Nanyang County, which not only consumed countless manpower, but also consumed countless material resources.


    After all, there is only Nanyang County for Zhang Xiu.


    It will be very difficult for Nanyang County to support the whole Guanzhong.


    But with Guo Si''s 250000 stone grain, Zhang Xiu was no longer worried about the grain problem. The 250000 stone grain is enough to save countless people and change the barrenness of Guanzhong.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s favorite.


    Zhang Xiu examined Guo Si and continued: "besides 250000 stone grain, how much money and treasure do you have?"


    Guo Si said: "can''t count!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly, but there was no surprise.


    He has money!


    The key is that in these troubled times, even if she had money, she couldn''t buy food. That''s why Zhang Xiu was so glad to have food.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what about armor and weapons?"


    Guo Si replied: "there are 3000 sets of armor, and a number of swords."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are honest. Next, Ben will arrange someone to inquire about the news. If the news is true, that''s all. If the news is not true, you should know the consequences. "


    "True, true!"


    Guo Si answered one after another, fearing that he would be punished by Zhang Xiu again.


    He''s hurt his butt and leg.


    I don''t know how long it will take to recover.


    Zhang Xiu inquired about the specific location, checked the location on the map, and asked the soldiers to take Guo Si back. "I''ll go to see if you can find out the situation tomorrow morning," he said


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong said: "it''s getting late. My Lord has a rest early. I''m going to leave."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    After Huang Zhong left, Zhang Xiu finished her work and had an early rest.


    Guo Si was carried back to the barracks. He was lying on the bed with an extremely anxious and angry look on his face. He kept slapping the bed and swearing loudly.


    Food, no more!


    Money, it''s gone!


    Weapons, no more!


    He''s gone with everything.


    Now, he has become a fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, and can only be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu. Even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill him and throws him out of the barracks, he has no chance to turn over.


    This is the most helpless place for Guo Si.


    Zhou Quan stood aside and roughly understood from Guo Si''s curses. He knew that Guo Si had failed to dig the wall, but he had lost his fortune.


    Zhou Quan said, "general, Huang Zhong betrayed you. It''s really hateful."


    "Huang Zhong should be killed!"


    Guo Si is biting his teeth, extremely angry.As soon as he twisted his body, he touched the bones of his legs and showed his teeth in pain. He asked, "what about the doctor? Didn''t you inform the doctor? Why haven''t you come yet? "


    "Soon, soon."


    "What should we do now?" he said


    Guo Si was suddenly dumb.


    What to do?


    He has no solution.


    Soon after, the curtain of the barracks was lifted, and the doctors in the army entered and began to treat Guo Si. It''s just that the doctor knows that Guo Si is very indignant at Guo Si''s killing the common people, so he starts very hard.


    In the process of treatment, from time to time, Guo Si screamed. Although speaking of the end, Guo Si''s legs were well bandaged, but it was already very painful.


    Legs, bleeding again.


    The doctor didn''t take care of these. He bandaged them rudely and quickly and left after simply prescribing the medicine.


    In the tent.


    Only Guo Si and Zhou Quan are left.


    Guo Si once again said: "comprehensive, you are quite tactful. What do you want to do with the current situation?"


    After careful consideration, he replied, "general, the situation is not optimistic. As the saying goes, "if we leave the Castle Peak, we will not worry about firewood. For the time being, let''s give in to Zhang Xiu and strive for the gradual control of military power."


    "Hard!"


    Guo Si sighed.


    Zhou Quan said, "then try to escape. Let''s go to Li Yi."


    "To Li Yi?"


    Guo Si frowned and said, "in my present situation, you are the only confidant left. With my seriously injured body, can I escape from Wuguan? "


    All in all.


    Guo Si continued: "I have told Zhang Xiu all about Li Xi. In five days at most, Zhang Xiu will find out the situation of Li Shi. In a faster situation, it only takes three days for Zhang Xiu to send troops. Li Shi can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s elite. "


    Guo Si looked at the integrity of silence, sighed: "you can''t think of a way, go to rest."


    "Here it is


    No more words, turn around and leave.


    The next day, near noon.


    When the general returned to the northeast, there was a report that soldiers were coming to the camp after training. The other side is Duan''s soldier, carrying Wu Xi''s body. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know."


    After the soldiers retired, Zhang Xiu thought about the reason why Duan Rong sent Wu Xi''s body.


    Obviously, it is to ease the relationship between the two sides.


    In other words, this is also to get rid of the relationship, not willing to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu called Jia Xu and said about Duan Xu''s sending Wu Xi''s body. "Wenhe, Duan Xu''s sending Wu Xi''s body is obviously to ease the relationship. Duan is not willing to be our enemy. Do you think we will have a chance to recruit him after we defeat him? "


    "No way!"


    Jia Xu replied without hesitation: "Duan Xun once escorted the emperor to Chang''an and had contact with him. Imagine what he would get if he were to submit to his lord? "


    "Nothing!"


    "If Duan Geng was obedient to Cao Cao, and he had a good relationship with the emperor, he would be granted the imperial edict."


    "Especially Duan, although he was born in the Xiliang army, and although he was jealous of talents, he was even more narrow-minded. But Duan is devoted to the emperor. "


    "It''s almost impossible for such a person to submit to the Lord," Jia said


    Zhang xiuhan said: "so, at the moment, we can only simmer well water with Duan, not against the river, and ignore him for the time being."


    "Yes


    Jia Xu nodded and said, "we won''t be enemies of Duan Xun for the time being, but now we can arrange a lot of spies to sneak into Hongnong County, or even into Luoyang to find out the situation of Duan Xun, which will help us to fight with Duan Xun in the future."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what Wen he said is true."


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Jia Xu''s suggestion.


    After Zhang Xiu had a plan, she waited quietly. When Wu Xi''s body came, Zhang Xiu met Duan''s soldiers in person, expressed her gratitude to Duan, and entertained Duan''s soldiers before sending them away.


    This is for a simmer.


    After Duan''s soldiers left, Zhang Xiu directly asked them to bury Wu Xi''s body.


    It''s useless for him to take Wu Xi''s body.

 Chapter 255

    Yi county is located in the west of Chang''an.


    To the west of this place is Chencang county. Further west, you will enter Liangzhou. The earliest time of Li he was located in the east of Chang''an, near Hongnong county.


    Because his strength was weakened to the extreme, he returned to the county.


    This is a helpless move.


    Li Zhen was stationed in Zhen County, but there were few people in the city, few pedestrians on the streets, and business withered.


    Most of the time, Li made his fortune by collecting wool. As a person in charge of the army and a person in charge of the party, he did not regard the common people as his people. He always regarded the common people as cattle and sheep and ransacked the common people every once in a while.


    The people in Fuxian county are gone, and he has no Raiders, which makes life difficult.


    Fortunately, Li Yi still had some grain in hand to make a living. Rao is so. He seldom gives meat to soldiers.


    Soldiers in the army, can eat enough.


    No more, it''s impossible.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Li Jian is dealing with government affairs. To say that he is dealing with government affairs is actually to flip through the things handed over. But recently, the generals have asked the same questions, crying to him that there is no food.


    In this regard, Li also helpless.


    The people below asked him for food. Who would he go to?


    Now that we can''t find food, the people are running away. Where can we go to search for food?


    "Alas..."


    Li Jian grabbed the bamboo slips in front of him and overturned them on the ground.


    Nowadays, Xuan paper is popular all over the world. It has spread rapidly in Guanzhong, Xiliang and other places. But Li''s army was short of money, so he still used bamboo slips.


    Li Jian overturned all the bamboo slips on the ground. When the curtain of the tent door was lifted, the counselor beside him came in.


    Li''s counselor was Zhang Hou.


    This man is from Weiwu, Xiliang. He is an old man beside Li, and has been following Li for many years. Zhang Hou is in his early fifties, with white temples, a soft face and deep and wise eyes. He is the most trusted confidant of Li.


    When he entered the camp, he saw the agitated Li He, went over, picked up all the bamboo slips scattered on the ground, and said slowly: "Lord, just after receiving the news, Zhang Xiu entered the martial arts pass. Guo Si has been betrayed by Wu Xi, and he has already surrendered to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Is Guo Si down?"


    Li Ying''s eyebrows rose, showing an unexpected look.


    He really couldn''t understand how Guo Si chose to be submissive because he was not willing to be subordinated to others.


    It was unexpected.


    Li said: "how could Guo Si surrender?"


    Zhang Hou shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I don''t know the specific situation. I only know that Guo Si has come down. Zhang Xiu has incorporated Guo Si''s army. Although there is no known reason for Guo Si''s surrender, there are some speculations about his humble position. "


    "What guess?"


    Li Shi asked, but he was a little curious.


    Zhang Houdao: "Guo Si is similar to the Lord. He hoarded grain. And the stored grain can be eaten for quite a long time. But the problem is that both the Lord and Guo Si think that if they use a little of the grain they hoard, there will be a little less, so they never use it. "


    "For a long time, no matter the Lord or Guo Si, they have been living by picking up the wool in autumn to find some food."


    "In the army, it''s hard."


    "The reason why Guo Si''s army was in turmoil was that his officers and men were short of clothing and food, so they could not endure. So Wu Xi gathered an army and rebelled. "


    "Guo Si was in a hurry and couldn''t resist, so he retreated. Just as Zhang Xiu entered the pass, he asked for help from Zhang Xiu and saved his life. "


    Zhang Hou said with heavy words: "Lord, the turbulence of Guo Si''s army is a lesson for us. Because Guo Si''s situation is similar to yours. "


    "Nowadays, there are many discussions in our army. Countless soldiers are making trouble and have no food."


    "Today, there is still some food."


    "After a period of time, if the food can''t keep up, the soldiers will be hungry, and there will be chaos."


    "I suggest that the grain stored in the granary should be adjusted to increase the supply of grain so that the soldiers can tide over the current difficulties. When the autumn harvest season comes, we will go to the autumn wind to replenish our grain consumption. "


    Zhang Hou said: "only in this way can we avoid danger. Otherwise, we may follow Guo Si''s lead. Especially in the Hongnong front line, there is still a section of simmer covetous, the Lord must be careful


    Li Ying frowned at Zhang Hou''s words.


    The wolf didn''t want to feed the soldiers in the granary because he didn''t want to. After he gave food, he would make more noise, forcing him to mobilize more food.


    Zhang Hou followed Li for many years and knew what Li was thinking. He advised: "Lord, to maintain the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the army, we must mobilize food. Otherwise, we have no fighting capacity and it is difficult to fight. "


    Li Jian listened to Zhang Hou''s words, but he was also quite helpless.


    It''s hard!Li Ying also believed Zhang Hou, took a deep breath, and said: "since Mr. Li thinks it is appropriate to allocate grain, he will allocate a batch of grain. In the first batch, 20000 stone grains should be allocated first, not too much. "


    "I understand


    Zhang Hou was relieved.


    Twenty thousand shekels of grain can be allocated to at least ease the soldiers in the army. In a short period of time, he does not have to worry about the lack of food in the army, which will lead to military unrest.


    As soon as Zhang Hou''s words changed, he continued: "there are some humble ideas about Zhang Xiu''s entry into the customs."


    "Tell me," Li said


    Zhang Hou''s eyes were sharp, and he continued: "as the saying goes, those who come are not good, and those who are good do not come. Zhang Xiu went to Guanzhong from the north of Wuguan. He came back to Guanzhong again. He didn''t come back to his hometown in splendor, but to seize the territory. "


    "Guo Si''s obedience could not satisfy Zhang Xiu."


    "In particular, Zhang Xiu entered the right Fufeng from Wuguan. Next, she is likely to go to war with us."


    "I suggest you be prepared."


    "Otherwise, once Zhang Xiu''s army strikes, we may not be able to cope with it."


    Zhang Hou is a man of vision and gives advice.


    On hearing this, Li Yu burst out laughing.


    Zhang Hou said, "what is the Lord laughing at?"


    Li Yilang said: "when Zhang Xiu was young, he would have known him very well. Sir, you have met Zhang Xiu. This son''s temperament, irritable, unreasonable art of war, rude. Such people, even if they enter Wuguan with the army, are not afraid. "


    Zhang Hou listened to Li He''s words and said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu and defeated Cao Cao in Nanyang County. These are not easy to do. Zhang Xiu is not simple."


    Li Bi curled his lips, disdaining to say: "who knows the truth?"


    Zhang Hou was suddenly dumb.


    He did not expect that Li Shi was such a sophistry.


    He was still worried and said, "Lord, you haven''t seen Zhang Xiu for many years. Maybe Zhang Xiu has changed a lot. So I suggest you be careful to avoid getting into danger. "


    Seeing Zhang Hou''s insistence, Li Jian didn''t argue with Zhang Hou. He said directly, "since Mr. Li thinks it''s necessary to make preparations early, just make arrangements."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Hou responded again.


    With Li He, he can arrange it.


    After finishing his main business, Zhang Hou continued: "my Lord, we are in a very difficult situation. Ma Teng and Han Sui in Xiliang are now in the dominant position. They are quite powerful and have enough food. They used to use the power of the Lord. We are short of food now. We can borrow some from them. Although we have our own food, it is always better to raise more. "


    "You arrange it."


    Li Bi is not refuse, directly agreed with Zhang Hou''s words.


    He has a lot of trust in Zhang Hou.


    After Zhang Hou finished, he said that he would not stay any longer. After he left the barracks, he began to make arrangements. He gave orders to strengthen the defense of the camp and increase the number of soldiers on patrol.


    Although the soldiers in the army were reluctant and didn''t want to make trouble, Zhang Hou said that he was about to transfer food to increase the rations for the soldiers. The soldiers in the army immediately became energetic and all of them moved quickly.


    When Li Xi''s camp strengthened its defense, Zhang Xiu''s sentry arrived near the camp and carefully observed everything in the camp.


    The sentry made sure of the camp layout.


    Then, according to the location of the granary marked on the map, he went straight to the storage location of the granary. For the sentinel, with the map, they quickly find the granary, find out the situation, and quickly return to Wuguan.

 Chapter 256

    Wuguan, barracks.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, after a short period of training, already have considerable combat effectiveness.


    On the one hand, there are veterans in the army.


    Veterans with recruits, can let the Xiliang army recruits with the fastest speed, into the army.


    On the other hand, although Guo Si''s soldiers were weak, they were also veterans who had been on the battlefield. They only became recruits in Zhang Xiu''s army. One by one, they had enough to eat and drink and recovered their spirits. Even though he is still a little thin, his mental head has completely recovered, and he will naturally have combat effectiveness.


    In particular, Huang Zhong is familiar with the army and is meticulous in his training. So in a short period of time, the soldiers of the flying bear army became used to being divided into two groups.


    In fact, even the regular soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command have excellent combat effectiveness. When Zhang Xiu was training soldiers, some sentinels returned from the front line.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu gets the news, she returns to the Chinese Army''s big account and receives the intelligence presented by the sentinel. After browsing the information, he sent for Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning.


    Major generals, all gather.


    Zhang Xiu said that the sentinel had learned about Li He, and then said, "the situation of Li He''s camp and the location of the granary have all been found out. But do you have a plan for how to send troops? "


    Gan Ning clenched his fist, waved it in the air and said, "Lord, I think we can attack. If he is strong, he should consider all kinds of tactics and try his best to win. However, Li''s strength is very weak. There is no need to beat around the bush. He can attack Li''s camp. It''s OK to destroy Li Jian and then attack his granary. "


    This is Ganning''s suggestion.


    He thought that he could attack Li Jian without any other strategy.


    Zhang Xiu did not reply immediately, but looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, what do you suggest?"


    Jia Xu smoothed his beard and said with a smile, "I don''t agree with xingba''s suggestion. The lion and the rabbit still need to go all out. What''s more, it''s a war. If we can minimize casualties, why not? "


    Gan Ning smiles.


    He was convinced of Jia Xu, so he didn''t feel anything when he heard Jia Xu''s refutation.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Sir, what''s your plan?"


    Jia''s slow strategy is also the way to attack. However, instead of attacking Li''s camp, he attacked the granary first. "


    "The detailed plan is divided into three aspects."


    "First, attack the granary."


    "Li''s granary has always been hidden in the dark. Under such a premise, even if there are garrisons, there can not be too many troops. So it''s not difficult to attack the granary. "


    "But to attack the granary, we must let the garrison of the granary pass the news and let Li he know that the granary has been attacked."


    "Second, attack the Li Ying camp."


    "Li''s barracks are occupied by all the troops. When he learned that the granary had been attacked, he would take most of his troops with him to help the granary. "


    "After the reinforcements leave, even if there are still troops in the battalion, the number and combat effectiveness will be limited. We just need to arrange an army, lurking outside the barracks. After Li''s reinforcements left, they attacked the camp, which was enough to win. "


    "Third, ambush Li Ying''s reinforcements."


    "Li''s rush to the granary must have overlooked the situation on the way. We arranged people early to ambush in the middle of the official road. Once Li''s reinforcements arrive, put out Li''s reinforcements. "


    "The three armies work in three ways."


    Jia Xu looked confident and said: "so, this battle will be won."


    With the plan finished, Jia Xu elaborated on the matters needing attention in detail and said: "these are the three layouts of humble posts. Please make a decision on how to choose."


    After listening, Pang Tong showed admiration on his face and exclaimed: "Sir''s strategy is really ingenious. The most wonderful thing is that from the beginning, he took the initiative by the nose. In particular, every strong attack is weak with strong attack, which can minimize our casualties. "


    Jia Xu smile, not proud.


    The strategy is simple.


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to take Jia Xu''s strategy and ordered: "Chen to listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Chen Dao clasped his fist.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you immediately mobilize 3000 cavalry of Langya camp. Later, you will attack the granary of Li He together with the general."


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao gives his fist.


    Jia Xu raised his eyebrows and said, "do you want to do it yourself?"


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to answer.


    Attacking Li''s granary is the most crucial link. If we can''t conquer the granary, all the plans made by Jia Xu will be flawed, so Zhang Xiu will personally take part in the war command.


    Zhang Xiu said: "when Ben was not in the camp, Wen he presided over the affairs of the big and the small."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu also bowed his hand.Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Huang Zhong and ordered: "Huang Zhong, you lead the 8000 soldiers of the flying bear army to lie in ambush on the way of Li Zhen''s rescue granary. Once the reinforcements led by Li Jian arrive, they will ambush immediately. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning again and ordered: "Gan Ning, you are leading 8000 soldiers of the fierce tiger army to lurk quietly near Li Ying''s camp. When Li''s reinforcements leave, you immediately take down Li''s camp. "


    "I''ll do it


    Gan Ning should also be the next.


    For a moment, Zhang Xiu arranged all the tasks.


    After everything was arranged properly, Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu again and said, "Wenhe, you and Shiyuan are in the military camp, dispatching all parties and coordinating all places. If there is a shortage of troops or a mistake, you should immediately send troops to remedy it. "


    "I understand


    Jia Xu nodded.


    He is no stranger to scheduling.


    This is the simplest arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu no longer delays time, lets the public to mobilize the army. However, in two quarters of an hour, everyone was ready to leave the barracks quickly and go to the direction of Zhen County.


    From Wuguan to Jue County, it almost crosses the whole youfufeng county. The road is a little far. Fortunately, Zhang Xiu and Chen Zhi led cavalry, and after entering Guanzhong, the road was smooth, and the cavalry could go as fast as they could.


    It''s just that Zhang Xiu never met a big village where people live together.


    Even if there are villages, they have long been abandoned.


    It''s not empty talk.


    Zhang Xiu knows that it is not easy to govern Guanzhong.


    The common people didn''t meet much, but they met several waves of bandits. They were all the common people. These people have long been not simple people. They have lost the simplicity and kindness of the people. They plunder everywhere. They are extremely vicious.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t keep her hand. She would kill anyone she met.


    It took nearly five days for the soldiers of Langya camp led by Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao to arrive near the granary.


    The troops were temporarily stationed and hidden.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for sentinel agents to inquire about Li Xi and Guo Si''s granary respectively. In less than an hour, the sentinel came back and found out the situation of the two granaries.


    There were more troops stationed in Li''s granary, about 3000 soldiers guarding it.


    Guo Si''s granary troops were small, up to 1000.


    The two sides are separated by a mountain and a water. Because of the dense forest and steep mountains, even if Li''s granary is only separated by a mountain, Guo Si''s granary can not be found. In addition, Guo Si''s army deliberately avoided Li Xi''s army, and even more could not find it.


    Zhang Xiu felt the situation clearly and didn''t attack immediately.


    They''re cavalry, fast.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led the infantry. Even if they drove day and night, they could not catch up with the speed of the horses. Only when the troops led by the two men enter the ambush site can Zhang Xiu launch an attack.

 Chapter 257

    Zhang Xiu didn''t wait long either. The next morning, a sentinel came to report that all the troops led by Huang Zhong and Gan Ning were in place without revealing their whereabouts.


    Confirmed the news, Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated, ordered Chen to dispatch troops to attack.


    The elite of three thousand Langya camp came out of the forest.


    "Boom!"


    The rapid sound of the horse''s hooves is constantly ringing.


    More than ten thousand horses trampled on the ground, making the ground tremble. Horses neigh, soldiers cry, the voice of one after another, such as mountain call tsunami, mighty.


    From the hiding place, it''s only four miles from the barracks.


    It''s a short distance.


    Especially in the full speed of the horses, the four mile road is just a short distance. When the cavalry of Langya camp led by Zhang Xiu and Chen Zhi arrived, they launched a strong attack without any stagnation.


    "Kill, kill in!"


    Chen to the hands of the gun, pointing to the camp in front of a loud order.


    In this war, we can only attack by force.


    If it''s a fire outside the granary and inside the camp, Li''s soldiers in the camp don''t need to attack at all, they will run out. But Zhang Xiu needed the grain in the granary. She had to leave all the grain for disaster relief. She had to seize the granary intact.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Horseshoe trample, the front cavalry, has been killed at the gate of the camp. They held a knife in their left hand and quickly took out the shotgun from the horse''s back pocket with their right hand. They leaned back and threw it forward. There were archers in the camp who wanted to shoot arrows to stop them, but a round of short guns fell down, causing countless casualties, and the attack was immediately dispersed.


    "Go in!"


    General of Langya camp, shouting.


    As the first horse rushes into the camp, the follow-up cavalry quickly kills in.


    Cavalry in the camp, back and forth to kill, defeat the garrison soldiers blocked in the camp gate.


    Both sides, fight in the camp.


    In the Xiliang army, the general in charge of guarding the place was Li you. He is a distant relative of Li, responsible for guarding the granary. Li you was surprised to see that the granary was attacked.


    The location of the granary is confidential.


    But somebody knows.


    This is surprising, but Li you has no time to think about it. He quickly mobilized the soldiers to resist, and quickly called his confidants, and ordered: "light the beacon and tell the general that we are under attack."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to start the fire at once.


    Beacon fire is the most direct and rapid way of communication.


    If the granary is attacked, sending soldiers to inform will waste countless time. The granary is only ten miles away from Li''s camp. After the beacon fire is lit, the news will soon spread.


    Not long ago, behind the granary, smoke began to rise.


    The rising beacon fire, more and more rich, rolling up, straight into the sky.


    "General Ben has asked General Li for help. Now, everyone go to the gate of the camp and guard for me."


    Li you gave a loud order.


    There are 3000 elite soldiers under his command, and the soldiers stationed in the granary are different from those stationed in the barracks. The soldiers under Li you''s command are not short of food or meat. They are ruddy, energetic and highly effective.


    This is the most elite under Li He''s command.


    Even if Chen Zhi led the cavalry to attack, he just barely gained the upper hand. On the one hand, Li you''s soldiers had a strong fighting capacity; on the other hand, the camp was too narrow for cavalry to use.


    Therefore, in a short period of time, the Xiliang army could not be completely defeated.


    Zhang Xiu is also in the army.


    As he led the troops forward, he watched the situation on the battlefield. When he found that there was a beacon fire burning behind the granary, his face showed a smile.


    The news is out.


    What Zhang Xiu is worried about is that she is afraid that the news will not come out.


    As long as the news comes out, it''s impossible for Li Shi not to act. And Li Shi sent troops to rescue, Jia Xu''s plan became.


    "Kill


    When he saw that the torch was no longer burning fast, he kept it.


    Soldiers in the army, full sprint.


    After the expansion of the cavalry of Langya camp, although it was not a long time, it had experienced many battles, big and small. It was the division of all battles on the battlefield. In particular, Zhang Xiu no longer left behind, personally led the soldiers into the battle, the soldiers were inspired, fast forward.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Zhi join hands like two sharp cones, which are inserted into the Xiliang army.


    The defense line of Xiliang army, which was able to defend, collapsed and began to retreat.


    When Li you saw this, he quickly controlled and commanded.


    Although he told the soldiers to retreat, he fought and retreated, showing no signs of defeat or chaos.


    Thanks to Li you.


    He commanded calmly and ordered the soldiers to resist orderly.


    Li Youyi looked like cavalry. His brows were wrinkled and his eyes were dignified. Under such a premise, he can only do his best to delay and wait for reinforcements to arrive.Li you''s fierce resistance, though at a disadvantage, was not in disorder. Even if Langya camp had the upper hand, it was still deadlocked.


    It''s hard to win in a short time.


    Zhang Xiu saw the stalemate and frowned. The current situation, which can not be broken through for a long time, is not conducive to the war. He turned his mind and immediately thought of catching the thief first and catching the king first.


    Only in this way can the situation be solved.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes kept turning and soon locked Li you. In particular, Li you''s armor is different from that of ordinary generals.


    Zhang Xiu holding the overlord gun, no longer hesitated, straight to the location of Li you to kill. He has a big gun, and no one can stop him. It wasn''t long before Zhang Xiu killed Li you.


    Overlord gun in the air a pick, a shot out, stabbing Li you''s heart position.


    But Zhang Xiu and Li you did not retreat directly. He is a general on the battlefield and is responsible for commanding. He knows what he should do and what he should not do.


    He won''t go to war, he has to do is very simple, is to command the soldiers to resist.


    Li you retreated and ordered his soldiers to besiege Zhang Xiu.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers of the Xiliang army besieging and sweeping with their overlord guns. In a flash, they hit the soldiers of the Xiliang army. Only listen to the sound of bang bang, block in front of Zhang Xiu, all were knocked over on the ground. The barrel of the gun shakes, the tip of the gun turns into a little cold star, quickly pokes out, and takes away the lives of soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu''s body has been stained with blood, which is the blood of the soldiers of the Xiliang army.


    Zhang Xiu killed the person who stood in front of him. Seeing that Li you was still retreating, she suddenly clamped her legs on the horse''s belly and stood firmly on the ground. With her left hand holding the overlord gun, her right hand sticking out of the bag of the horse''s belly, she took out a short gun and threw it at the position where Li you was.


    "Whew!"


    The short gun pierced the air and immediately came to Li you''s back.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp short gun penetrated into the hip of Li you''s horse.


    "Herod!"


    The horses galloped, hissed and ran recklessly. With the shaking and bumping of the horse, he ran less than five steps away and threw Li you off the horse''s back, causing Li you to fall to the ground.


    When Li you falls to the ground, Zhang Xiu catches up. As soon as he got close to Li you, the overlord spear shot out quickly.


    "Help me!"


    Li you was very anxious when he saw the bayonet coming. He summoned up all his strength to escape, but the speed of his hand was slow. He could only cry for help. After he yelled, a soldier approached, raised his knife and ran into the overlord''s gun.


    "Dang!"


    The blade stands on the barrel, but the strength of the blade is not enough. It only makes the barrel rise three inches.


    Position, offset.


    Rao is such, sharp gun tip still aimed at Li you''s body.


    The point of the gun is not moving forward.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun, with the power of thunder, poked into Li you''s shoulder and easily penetrated Li you''s body.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Li you''s mouth.


    The next moment, the long gun out, Li you eat pain, there is a canopy of blood on the shoulder, such as spring spray out. Li you''s body trembled with pain, and his face was full of pain.


    Li you looks at Zhang Xiu, his eyes full of panic.


    Who is this?


    So powerful!


    Zhang Xiu takes back the gun, but he fails to kill Li you. A touch of regret passes in his eyes. But Zhang Xiu did not stop. The overlord''s gun turned in the air, and the long gun swept across the soldiers who had just been blocked with a knife.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The barrel of the gun hit the soldier''s ribs. Under the impact of the great force, the soldier''s waist cracked and his ribs were broken. The soldier collapsed to the ground with a stick and lost his breath.


    Under one shot, he fractured his ribs and internal organs and was killed immediately.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turn and lock on Li you again. Under the sharp eyes, the murderous air made Li you shiver and feel cold at the bottom of his heart.

 Chapter 258

    "Protect me!"


    When Li you saw Zhang Xiu''s eyes, he was so scared that he called out to the soldiers around him for help. But although Li you ordered, the soldiers around had been killed by what Zhang Xiu had just done.


    One by one, they were afraid to step forward.


    There are no soldiers in the area around Zhang Xiu.


    Without protection, Li you is completely exposed to Zhang Xiu. At the moment, Zhang Xiu was bathed in blood all over her body, and even had blood stains on her face, just like a demon, which was even more frightening.


    That''s exactly what happened. No soldiers came forward.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was mentioned, it was stabbed out.


    "Whew!"


    The sharp point of the gun, indomitable, immediately arrived in front of Li you. With a puff, the tip of the gun ran through Li you''s heart.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Li you''s mouth.


    "Who are you?" Li you said


    "Zhennan general, Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhang Xiu returned a word, long gun then quickly draw out. In a flash, blood splashed from Li you''s chest. Li you''s body immediately fell to the ground, and the look in his eyes gradually faded.


    Zhang Xiu!


    How did Zhang Xiu get to Jue county?


    What''s going on?


    Li you''s mind, there are countless doubts, can not figure out the reason. But the look in his eyes was fading quickly. A moment later, his neck tilted and he fell to the ground without any breath.


    Zhang Xiu killed Li you. Regardless of the others, she raced again.


    Originally, with Li you, the Xiliang army was able to fight and retreat without disorder. But when Li you died, the Xiliang army lost its leading role in command, and suddenly became chaotic.


    "The general was killed."


    In the crowd, soldiers of the Xiliang army yelled.


    At first, the cry was so common that few people heard it. But it wasn''t long before many of the soldiers of the Xiliang army heard that the formation was in a mess, and they were in a panic.


    This situation aggravated the rout of the Xiliang army.


    "Those who fall will not be killed!"


    Zhang Xiu shouts loudly, at the same time of hiding and killing, and at the same time of calling for surrender. In Zhang Xiu''s surrender, some of the soldiers in the Xiliang army began to surrender, throwing away their weapons and kneeling down.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao have gained an advantage and continue to fight and kill the soldiers who are struggling.


    At this moment, the garrison of Xiliang army was defeated like a mountain.


    No more suspense.


    The war has already won.


    When Zhang Xiu and Chen went to cover up, the soldiers found the burning beacon fire in Li''s camp. With an eager look, they flew to Li''s camp and reported: "general, it''s not good. In the direction of the granary, there is a beacon fire. "


    Brush!


    Li''s face changed greatly.


    Li Yi clearly told Li you that if there is no major event, it is not allowed to light the beacon fire. Once the beacon fire burns, it means that there is a big problem in the granary.


    Li Qi stood up and immediately ordered: "beat the drum immediately and gather the soldiers in the army."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went down to give orders.


    "Dong! Dong


    The war drums are constantly echoing in the barracks, and the soldiers in the army gather quickly.


    Zhang Hou, Li''s counselor, came soon. His eyes were full of worry, and he said in a deep voice: "Lord, I''ve seen the beacon fire burning in the granary."


    "Humble prediction, it is very likely that Zhang Xiu''s army attacked the granary."


    "In Chang''an area, no other force dares to attack us. The only one who can come is Zhang Xiu who has just entered Wuguan. If he can find our granary, maybe he will be guided by Guo Si. "


    Zhang Hou gives the analysis.


    In his heart, he was also worried about the outcome of the war.


    Zhang Xiu is a bad comer.


    The situation is not favorable.


    Li Jian''s eyes were sharp and said forcefully: "Sir, it''s useless to say that. No matter how to analyze it, it is not as urgent as the current situation. If the granary is lost, we can''t stick to it for two months just by relying on the grain in the barracks. "


    Zhang Houdao: "general, go to the rescue and stay in the camp. But the general must be careful when he goes here. The other party attacked the granary, maybe there was another conspiracy. "


    Li Ying nodded and said, "Ben will lead 8000 soldiers to the rescue. The rest of the soldiers will stay."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Hou arched his hand.


    Li Yi and Zhang Hou leave the camp. Li Yi goes to the school yard in a hurry and mobilizes 8000 troops to leave.


    Zhang Hou stayed in the camp, he was very cautious, quickly arranged the soldiers to strengthen the defense, to avoid the camp was attacked.


    After Li Xi left, he was not far away from the camp.


    Ganning led his soldiers to ambush in the forest. A sentinel came to Ganning quickly and reported: "general, Li Xi left the barracks with his soldiers. It is roughly estimated that the army Li took with him was about 8000 people. ""Eight thousand?"


    Gan Ning''s eyes narrowed and he said excitedly: "Li Jian''s troops are not many, which means that there are not many soldiers left in the camp. It''s much easier for us to attack the camp. "


    After going out of wuleidun, Li continued to attack


    "Here it is


    The sentry left again.


    Gan Ning is still waiting for the news.


    ¡­¡­


    Granary.


    After Li you was killed and the defense line collapsed, the war was over in less than three quarters of an hour.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao began to clean the battlefield and the camp again.


    The camp of granary is under the control of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu examined the soldiers stationed in the granary and learned about the situation in the granary. In Li''s granary, there were more than 200000 stones of grain.


    In addition, there are a lot of armor and weapons, as well as the accumulation of countless money.


    Everything about Li He is stored here.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that there were 200000 stones of grain, her face showed a happy look.


    Li''s 200000 stone grain and Guo Si''s 250000 stone grain still exist in his granary. All the grain amounts to 450000 stone grain. This is a terrible number.


    Among the princes in the world, many of them may not have 450000 stone grain. So much food is enough to pull up a huge army. With this batch of grain, Zhang Xiu was no longer worried about the disaster relief in Guanzhong.


    With food, disaster relief will be easy.


    Guanzhong will also be revitalized.


    Zhang Xiu asks Chen Dao to leave a thousand soldiers of Langya camp to guard the granary to prevent accidents. Together with Chen Dao, she takes the rest of the soldiers of Langya camp to Huang Zhong''s position and ambushes Li Yu''s army.


    ¡­¡­


    Li Ying.


    When Li Xi was far away, Gan Ning got the information from the sentinel and gave the order to attack without hesitation.


    Soldiers in the army, charge fast.


    Eight thousand elite soldiers came out and went straight to the barracks.


    There are 8000 elite soldiers under the command of Ganning, but the soldiers of Xiliang army in the camp are no more than 2000. Even though Zhang Hou arranged the defense of the camp, it didn''t take long.


    Within a quarter of an hour, the defense at the gate of the camp was broken.


    The general in charge of guarding came to Zhang Hou with an anxious look and reported: "military division, the enemy has come in. We can''t stop it. What can we do?"


    "Block, you must block!"


    Zhang Hou ordered again.


    At this moment, Zhang Hou''s face became dignified.


    He thought of Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    First, he attacked the granary and forced Li to take his soldiers to rescue. Then he attacked the weakened camp. Under the whole plan, Li''s army was completely passive, just like a puppet with a string, and flying around without a head.


    This is a war. finished!


    Open heart, sink to the bottom.


    He knew that in today''s situation, the other party must have killed Li.


    This is to completely destroy Li.


    What a trick!


    Zhang Hou looked up at the troops who had entered the camp, and then at the retreating troops under his command, sighing in his heart. He knew that he was weak, but Zhang Hou was still unwilling.


    He ordered to resist for a while, but soon the army broke up completely. Under such circumstances, Zhang Houcai no longer resisted and ordered: "pass on the orders and surrender!"


    Countless Xiliang soldiers were ordered, and Qi Qi was relieved.


    If you resist again, you will die.


    Give up resistance, there is still a way to live.


    Countless soldiers knelt down and asked to surrender, so that Ganning easily won the victory and took control of Li''s camp.


    This battle is easy to win.


    Ganning ordered the soldiers to detain all the prisoners and take over the camp defense. He left 3000 soldiers to guard the camp, and led his army to leave for Huang Zhong''s ambush.


    He''s going to meet Huang Zhong.

 Chapter 259

    Li Yi and his soldiers were on their way at full speed, constantly heading for the granary.


    "Speed up, speed up!"


    Li Yi constantly ordered and urged.


    He was worried about the granary. Once the granary was lost, he would lose everything. Without food, the army will mutiny, with only a few soldiers left, and it will collapse and mutiny.


    "Li you, you must keep it


    Li Yu''s heart, secretly give Li you drum strength, hope Li you can hold.


    As a matter of fact, Li Yu has some confidence in Li you. The reason is very simple. The soldiers under the command of Li you are all elite soldiers under Li Yu''s command. Whether it is the combat effectiveness of soldiers, or the weapons and armor of soldiers, that is the strongest.


    Li''s soldiers are on their way with all their strength.


    These soldiers all know that the granary was attacked.


    They know that if the granary is lost, the situation will be worse and the days will be more difficult. Nowadays, the grain supply in the army is all withheld. When the granary is gone, they have to be hungry.


    All the soldiers, go for it.


    When Li Yu was on his way quickly, there were dense woods on both sides of the official road in the middle of the granary and camp.


    In a dense forest.


    All the 8000 soldiers led by Huang Zhong are in ambush here. In order to resist the cavalry of the flying bear army, Huang Zhong specially arranged a stumbling rope on the official road. As long as the cavalry of the flying bear army appears, the stumbling rope can deal with the cavalry.


    However, after Li Xi approached, the sentinel returned to report that all he brought were infantry.


    As a matter of fact, Li Jian had very few cavalry.


    It''s not that there are no war horses, it''s that he can''t afford to raise them, because he thinks that the consumption of raising horses is too large.


    Li himself lived on grain.


    If he raised horses, the food consumption under his command would increase, leading to an increase in military spending.


    Huang Zhong was overjoyed to learn that Li had no cavalry.


    Under such circumstances, it is easier to deal with Li Shi.


    With the distance getting closer, Huang Zhong''s sense of war became more and more intense. When Li''s army, the leader, entered the ambush circle, Huang Zhong did not immediately launch the ambush, but let Li continue on his way.


    When most of Li''s soldiers entered the ambush circle, Huang Zhongcai ordered the archers to release their arrows.


    Dense arrow rain, continuous attack.


    The arrow, like rain, fell on Li''s army. In an instant, Li''s army was in turmoil.


    Li also found that there was an ambush in the forest. He did not dare to delay. He was more worried about the safety of the granary. He ordered: "don''t delay, don''t stop. Go ahead, go to the granary first. "


    Huang Zhong saw Li''s Xiliang army, still unable to resist the bow and arrow, and rushed forward regardless of everything. He knew Li''s intention. After the bow and arrow shooting, Huang Zhong ordered: "blow the trumpet, the whole army will attack!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of a long horn reverberates in the air.


    Countless soldiers rushed out of the forest.


    The soldiers under Huang Zhong''s command fought out and soon entered the battlefield.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Countless soldiers entered the battlefield and killed Li''s soldiers.


    Rao is so, Li Yi still has no plan to stay, still ordered to go to the direction of granary. Li Yu is desperate to get to the granary to support Li you.


    Huang Zhong, aware of Li''s intention, sneers in his heart.


    Li Xi wants to go to the granary.


    It''s too late!


    According to Huang Zhong''s estimation, the granary must have fallen.


    Huang Zhong didn''t order the soldiers to stop Li He, who was on his way to the granary. Instead, he ordered them to follow Li He''s rear and kill Li He''s soldiers.


    Both sides of a desperate forward, a non-stop cover up.


    Closer and closer to the granary.


    Li Jian looked back at the enemy in the rear and found that his soldiers were decreasing sharply. His brow was deep and his face was full of worry.


    In an ambush alone, more than 1000 soldiers were killed or injured.


    There are more who escape.


    Under such circumstances, his soldiers suffered heavy losses.


    Li Yi looked at the camp which was still on fire, and he was even more worried.


    All of a sudden, Li Bi''s ears moved.


    When he rushed forward regardless of everything, he noticed that the official road ahead seemed to vibrate.


    Boom!!


    The feeling of vibration is more and more clear.


    As Li Yi continued to run forward, he could already detect the vibration sound coming from the front.


    It''s cavalry!


    In his heart, Li Yu had a bad feeling.


    The next moment, I saw in front of the official road, suddenly appeared a wriggling black line. This black line keeps wriggling and rushing forward quickly.


    "Boom!"


    Countless horse hoofs trample on the ground.Fierce cavalry, charging.


    The horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, making the ground smoke everywhere.


    This is the cavalry of Langya camp.


    The leaders were Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu, armed with a tyrant''s gun, drives his horse. He saw the Xiliang army on the official road ahead, looking forward to it.


    Once upon a time, I left Guanzhong, and I was in a great depression.


    At that time, his uncle, Zhang Ji, once found Li He, hoping that he could borrow food to help Zhang Ji survive. But Li Shi refused directly. Li Shi''s request was very simple, that is to let Zhang Ji return to Li Shi and accept Li Shi''s reorganization.


    Zhang Ji didn''t agree, so he went to Nanyang County to look for food and died in the war.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is back.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than 80 steps, Zhang Xiu saw Li Xi, who was in the front of the Xiliang army. He flashed a cold color in his eyes. As soon as he kicked the horse''s belly, he charged quickly and went straight to Li.


    Distance, closer and closer.


    Li Yi took the soldiers on his way and soon found Zhang Xiu. His eyes widened and his heart sank.


    Zhang Xiu has come to stop him, so the granary has fallen.


    It''s over!


    At this moment, Li was in a state of confusion.


    Although he was in a mess, he was not indecisive. He found that the roads before and after were blocked. In the front was Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, and in the rear was Huang Zhong''s infantry.


    There is no way out for Li Xi.


    "Withdraw!"


    Although he knew that the granary had been lost, he did not delay his time and immediately ordered the retreat.


    When he meets a cavalry, he will die.


    Turning to the direction of the rear camp to break through, there is still a certain chance to evacuate. Li Yi and his soldiers turned around, intending to break through in the rear, but Huang Zhong blocked the rear and cut off Li''s retreat.


    When Li Jian and his soldiers retreated and broke through, he was stopped by Huang Zhong''s soldiers.


    Huang Zhong has a knife in his hand, and no one can stop him.


    The soldiers who broke out were killed one after another.


    Li Jian was furious in his eyes. If he can''t beat Zhang Xiu, will he be afraid of a man in his early 40s? Li Yi immediately urged his horse and went straight to kill Huang Zhong.


    "Get out of my way!"


    Li Xuan swung the sword in his hand, and then split it at Huang Zhong''s head.


    Huang Zhong killed himself out of the forest without riding a horse. Although there is no chariot to sprint, Huang Zhong is not afraid. When Li Zhen''s sword was cut down, Huang Zhong gave a low drink, clenched his sword with both hands and swung it to meet him.


    Huang Zhong did his best.


    A knife, cut through the air.


    A knife cuts everything.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of a powerful crash rang out immediately.


    The vast and majestic power erupted from the place of impact.


    At first, Li Heng snorted. He felt that there was no match for him, and he rushed forward. He didn''t even have time to react, and his hand was torn.


    His body, standing on the horse''s back, flew upside down on the spot and fell to the ground with a bang.


    His sword fell to the ground.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong didn''t know Li He, but from his clothes, he could tell that he was a great general.


    Kill one first!


    This is Huang Zhong''s plan.


    He strode forward with a knife in his hand. But in the blink of an eye, Huang Zhong came to Li He''s body. He swung the sword in his hand and dropped it.


    "Hansheng, that''s Li Xi."


    Zhang Xiu''s voice came when Huang Zhong cut it with a knife. Zhang Xiu has been paying close attention to Li''s situation. Seeing that Huang Zhong defeated Li, she began to shout when she wanted to kill him.


    Li should be killed!


    But it''s not like that.


    Huang Zhongyi heard Zhang Xiu''s words, the blade turned, the back of the blade still fell.


    "Bang!"


    The power of the back of the knife, majestic and unparalleled, fell on Li''s shoulder. Even if Huang Zhong converged his strength, Li''s shoulder was broken by the impact of the back of the knife.


    The shrill scream came from Li Xi''s mouth. He just felt that his shoulders and body were falling apart. He was lying on the ground, his body trembling slightly.


    Zhang Xiu caught up, looked at Li He lying on the ground, and ordered, "come on, take Li He down!"


    The soldier came forward and quickly took down Li Yu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the soldiers of the Xiliang army who were still breaking through the encirclement, and said in a loud voice: "Li Bi is captured, and the one who comes down will not be killed!"


    "If Li Jian is captured, he will not be killed!"


    Huang Zhong yelled after him.


    This is the fastest way to defeat the Xiliang army. As long as Xiliang knows that Li Yu is defeated and the morale of the army collapses, it is impossible to resist.


    "If Li Jian is captured, he will not be killed!"


    "If Li Jian is captured, he will not be killed!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cries echoed on the official road. More and more soldiers of the Xiliang army, hearing the news of Li He''s defeat, were in chaos and panic.Originally, the soldiers of Xiliang army were killed in chaos. Now that Li was captured alive, there was no one to resist.


    After all, a small number of people are resistant.


    While Huang Zhong was sweeping the battlefield quickly, Gan Ning from the rear came after him, but the war was over.


    Ganning felt sorry.


    It''s a pity that he''s a little late. If he wins Li Ying earlier and makes great achievements, it would be perfect.

 Chapter 260

    "I want to see Zhang Xiu. Let me see Zhang Xiu."


    After Li he was arrested, he kept struggling and yelled that I was Li He, even more threatening the soldiers.


    His face was full of anger.


    He was even more resentful.


    I think he is a famous general of the Xiliang army. When he followed Dong Zhuo around the world, Zhang Xiu was still a child. Now, he was defeated by Zhang Xiu, and became a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, with incomparable frustration in his heart.


    Li Jian''s constant abuse and threats made the soldiers afraid.


    The soldier quickly ran to Zhang Xiu and reported the situation of Li He to Zhang Xiu. Please make a decision.


    However, Zhang Xiu ignored it.


    He has no time to talk to Li.


    Zhang Xiu let arrive Ganning, escort all the prisoners, straight to the direction of the camp. When she returned to Li Xi''s residence, Zhang Xiu arranged for Chen Dao to lead the cavalry of Langya camp to Guo Si''s granary.


    With the fighting power of Langya camp under Chen Dao, it is enough to attack Guo Si''s granary to win the first World War.


    After Chen Dao left, Zhang Xiu arranged a sentinel to inform Jia Xu, and let Jia Xu lead his troops to the county to meet.


    If the army wins, the army must meet.


    Zhang Xiu also asked Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to select Li''s Xiliang army and reorganize them into the army to expand their strength.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, no longer limited forces.


    With 4.5 million stone grain and enough territory in Guanzhong, we must expand our forces as soon as possible to cope with the next war and situation.


    Zhang Xiu arranged all kinds of things, and only when she was a little free did she send someone to take Li He to the barracks.


    Li Lian held his head high and looked proud.


    In front of Zhang Xiu''s face, Li Zhen was not the slightest soft, strong quality asked: "Zhang Xiu, at least you and I are of the same origin, are all from the Xiliang army. You are good in Nanyang County. Why attack the general? "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "attack you Li, still need reason?"


    He couldn''t understand Li''s confidence.


    It''s stupid.


    Li Yi''s face was stiff, but in a moment he regained his composure and continued: "now that you have captured Ben Jiang, what are you going to do with me. I tell you, there is no place in Guanzhong that will not be familiar with. If you let me go, with your bravery and the general''s insight and strategy, it won''t be difficult to sweep through Guanzhong and eliminate Duan Rong. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "what insight can you have? Your insight is to make the people in Guanzhong feel helpless and empty? Even if you have a strategy, can you match Jia Xu? "


    Once again, Li was speechless.


    He has to admit that he is far from Jia Xu.


    Once upon a time, Li Zhen valued Jia Xu very much and wanted him to be his military adviser and give him advice. But Jia Xu didn''t want to, and even took the initiative to leave.


    Zhang Xiu got up and went to Li Shi. She looked at Li Shi standing upright with cold eyes and said, "I still remember how you refused when my uncle was short of food and people were tired. She asked me to borrow food from you."


    "You said that even if you lend it to a dog, you won''t lend it to your uncle."


    "Unless, uncle, you''re your uncle."


    "My uncle, in a hurry, gritted his teeth and decided to go south to Jingzhou."


    Zhang Xiu''s tone became more and more indignant, and said: "just now you said that you were the same Xiliang army. Why did you come to my uncle''s place? You don''t care about the old love. If it were not for you, how could my uncle die young in middle age? If it wasn''t for you, how could my thousands of sons of Xiliang army have died in the battle against the county of Nanyang County? "


    "Li Jian, in front of Zhang Xiu, he looks like Lao Tzu is the best in the world. How can you have the confidence?"


    "What a fool you are!"


    "No longer in front of you, you are not qualified to stand. Kneel down for me!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand, she pressed it on Li Zhen''s shoulder. Under the pressure of rigid force, Li can''t move, but Zhang Xiu raises her foot and kicks it out, with the tip of her foot on Li''s knee.


    "Ah


    With a scream, Li Yu felt pain in his knees and his body was unstable. With a plop, he knelt on the ground.


    Li Jian knelt on the ground with a look of humiliation and resentment in his eyes. He just now he is in front of Zhang Xiu, a pair of fierce arrogant appearance, but now he has no confidence.


    Zhang Xiu is too fierce.


    Even Li is afraid of Zhang Xiu who is becoming more and more arrogant.


    Zhang Xiu looked down at Li Shi kneeling on the ground and continued: "what I said just now is just my personal anger, it''s the gratitude and resentment between Zhang Xiu and you Li Shi. You, Li Shi, have been in Guanzhong for several years. The people in Guanzhong have been displaced and the villages in Guanzhong are empty. The sin that you have made cannot be redeemed by death. If you don''t kill you, it will be hard for the people to calm down their grievances, and it will be hard for the people in Guanzhong to live forever. "


    Brush!


    Li''s face changed again.


    He recognized the killing intention in Zhang Xiu''s words.


    This is to kill him.


    There was still some reserve and pride in Li''s heart, and he was full of resentment. But after listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, no more arrogance, eyes dribbling, thinking about the solution.All the reserve and resentment, in front of life, are forgotten.


    Li Xi kowtowed to the ground and begged for mercy: "General Zhang, Li Xi is wrong. I beg General Zhang to spare my life. I should not refuse Zhang Ji, let alone plunder the people. I was wrong, and I am willing to repent. Please, give me a chance to reform. "


    He kept begging for mercy.


    He just wanted to save his life first.


    Li lived for decades and saw countless storms. He had already ignored his face. If he can survive, he can do anything.


    As long as you live, you have a chance.


    Otherwise, everything will stop.


    This is Li Shi''s cognition and values.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Li Xi''s words, she sneered and said, "if you commit a crime, just a few words of begging for mercy, you can eliminate it all. The countless dead people are not worth it. You must die. "


    Li Yi heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his heart sank to the bottom, clenched his fist, and his eyes were full of resentment.


    He recognized Zhang Xiu''s determination.


    He was determined to kill him.


    Li Bi raised his head, his eyes full of resentment, and roared: "Zhang Xiu, if you kill me, you will die. All the Xiliang troops under my command are loyal to me. If you kill me, they will mutiny. "


    He turned into a threat.


    Previously, he was soft to Zhang Xiu, hoping that Zhang Xiu would spare his life.


    Zhang Xiu does not spare, Li Yi turns to threaten.


    With a disdainful smile on her lips, Zhang Xiu said, "the soldiers who surrender under your command are already undergoing reorganization."


    "Do you know Guo Si, like you, said that his soldiers would mutiny. But in the end, all the soldiers under his command were obedient in a short time, and they all obeyed the general''s instructions. "


    "These soldiers of the Xiliang army, under your command, don''t have enough food, don''t have warm clothes, and don''t have meat to eat."


    "With the general, they have enough pay to eat and not to be hungry. You say, would they like to eat and drink with Ben, or would they like to follow you? "


    "Nowadays, loyalty is the most valuable; loyalty is the least valuable."


    "The loyalty of soldiers is very simple, that is to eat and drink enough. Under my command of Zhang Xiu, they can eat and drink without worry. As long as I give orders and don''t need me to do it, there will be countless people to kill you. "


    Zhang Xiu is confident in her words.


    Li Shi''s face suddenly turned pale, his eyes full of panic, gritted his teeth and said: "you are not Zhang Xiu, the former Zhang Xiu, not like this? You are the devil, how can you be so cruel. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "yes, you hope that I was once Zhang Xiu. I''m easy to cajole, bully and calculate. Now I''m here to deal with you. "


    "You, you..."


    Li Xi''s speech is a bit stuttering.


    He never thought that today''s Zhang Xiu is so decisive and bold.


    Is this the same Zhang Xiu?


    Thinking of this, Li Yu regretted it. If he had taken in Zhang Ji, then he would not be miserable now.


    Unfortunately, it''s too late.


    It''s too late to repent!


    Li Xi''s steel teeth clenched, his face coldly staring at Zhang Xiu, said: "Zhang Xiu, you want to kill, you want to cut. If I frown, I''m not a hero. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to laugh.


    "What are you laughing at?" Li said


    Zhang Xiu tossed the ground and said: "you should die, but I won''t kill you. Now, enjoy the rest of your life. On the day of your public trial, countless people will come to kill you. "


    Hiss!


    He took a breath and looked frightened in his eyes.


    Public trial?


    Let the people kill him?


    Li Yu was tyrannical and slaughtered countless people. He knows his reputation among the people. Once Zhang Xiu really wants to try him, his result will be extremely miserable.


    At the thought of that, Li Zhen felt his scalp numb.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are the devil!"


    Li Jian was a little thirsty and extremely afraid.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "your only chance to avoid public trial is to commit suicide. If you commit suicide, you can avoid all this. "


    Li Yu was speechless for a while.


    Suicide!


    That''s impossible.


    He didn''t want to commit suicide, and he didn''t have the courage to commit suicide.

 Chapter 261

    Li Zhen scolded him a lot, but soon he couldn''t make a sound. He didn''t want to die, he didn''t have enough to live. But Zhang Xiu''s determination, unshakable, made him extremely desperate.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the lonely silent Li, let people take Li down.


    It''s not the time to kill Li.


    Zhang Xiu was in the military camp. In half a day, Chen sent someone to send back the news and took Guo Si''s granary. On the other hand, all the prisoners in Li''s camp were escorted back to the camp to accept the reorganization of Huang Zhong and Gan Ning.


    Both granaries are in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Zhang Xiu began to expand her strength to the surrounding counties, with Zhen County as the center.


    In fact, there are no officials in the surrounding counties.


    Many places are occupied by bandits.


    There were not many people, such as Chencang, Wugong, meiyang and other counties, which were quickly captured by Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Thieves and bandits everywhere have been swept away.


    Even if the thieves and bandits are destroyed, the places are still desolate and lack of people.


    In just ten days, Zhang Xiu almost won most of the youfufeng county. At this time, Jia Xu led a large army from Wuguan to join Zhang Xiu in Jue county.


    When Pang Tong and Jia Xu were in the army, Zhang Xiu was more relaxed in government affairs and didn''t need to do it personally. Zhang Xiu, together with Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen, led the army to wipe out the bandits and invade the city.


    In early May, the army entered jingzhaoyin and came to Chang''an.


    Today''s Chang''an is desolate.


    The city is dilapidated, the huge imperial city is empty, and there are no soldiers stationed.


    Chang''an was dilapidated because after Wang Yun was killed, Li Xi, Guo Si, fan Hou and others attacked each other and plundered the common people, leading to the displacement of the common people, countless deaths and injuries, and finally the whole city was empty.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and stationed in Chang''an.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not enter the palace.


    Once in the Imperial City, the news spread, not conducive to Zhang Xiu''s reputation.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about fame.


    So he won''t be fat and choose the prime minister''s residence where Dong Zhuo once lived in the city.


    This is the prime minister''s office in the earliest period.


    After Dong Zhuo retired to Chang''an, most of the time, he no longer lived in the city, but lived outside the city, which was the place where Dong Zhuo had always lived. Although the prime minister''s residence is dilapidated, it is magnificent and covers a large area, which is enough to serve as the office of Zhang Xiu.


    After the simple repair, the plaque of Zhennan general''s house was hung, and Zhang Xiu took people to live in.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu called Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen to discuss the matter.


    The crowd gathered.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "at present, we have captured Chang''an and started to capture Jing Zhaoyin. In youfufeng and jingzhaoyin, we are the main force. It is not difficult to attack these two counties. The most difficult is the next governance. Do you have any suggestions for this? "


    Zhang Xiu is the Lord.


    He has his own trade-offs and considerations in governing the two places.


    But a man is short of wisdom. He needs to ask his advisers for advice and listen to the suggestions of Pang Tong and Jia Xu.


    This is to be clear if you listen to both sides, and dark if you believe something.


    Gan Ning swept through all parties during this period of time and was very excited.


    On hearing Zhang Xiu''s inquiry, he said: "Lord, I''m not good at managing local affairs. According to your humble position, you will directly dispatch scholars from Nanyang County to govern the local area. At the end, you will continue to lead the troops to Hongnong County, defeat Duan Lu and take Hongnong County as soon as possible. "


    Zhang Xiu stares at Gan Ning and hums: "you know how to kill. If you don''t understand, say less."


    "Yes


    Gan Ning smiles.


    He is not afraid of Zhang Xiu. He has been following Zhang Xiu for a long time and knows her temperament.


    Zhang Xiu said directly, "Wenhe, how do you think about it?"


    Jia Xu said: "Lord, to govern youfufeng and jingzhaoyin, or even the whole Guanzhong area, there are three urgent matters that must be dealt with immediately."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what are the three things?"


    Jia Xu''s slightly turbid eyes became clear and said slowly: "the first thing is to ask the court for credit. No matter Li Xi or Guo Si, they have harmed countless people. "


    "The common people in Guanzhong have been suffering from Li Xi and Guo Si for a long time!"


    "The Lord defeated Guo Si and captured Li Xi. The news came out and the world was shocked. My Lord, this time, he has made great contributions to the country and to all the people in the world. "


    "The court learned that it must be commended."


    What Jia Xu did to Guo Si turned out to be Zhang Xiu''s defeat rather than Zhang Xiu''s assistance to Guo Si.


    He has always been familiar with the affairs of the upper court.


    It has to be done.


    There is a great difference between the official positions appointed by the imperial court and those appointed by oneself. Although Zhang Xiu has won Chang''an, she can appoint her own official position, but it lacks legitimacy.


    Without justice, it is not good for Zhang Xiu to attract scholars. With the approval of the court, it will be easier to recruit scholars.That''s right.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "if we go to the imperial court, what kind of official position do we expect?"


    Jia Xu said, "it''s better to be the commander of Sili."


    The chief commander of Si Li, the inspector of the capital, the inspector of youfufeng, jingzhaoyin, Hanoi County, Henan county and other places are equal to the governor of a state, and they have great power.


    Now that Zhang Xiu is in charge of Guanzhong, it''s better to be the commander of Sili.


    But it''s hard.


    Zhang Xiu was clear about the authority of Sili Xiaowei, and said in a deep voice: "as for the position of Sili Xiaowei, it can be operated for some time. In particular, when Yuan Shu became emperor in Yangzhou, Cao Cao would certainly fight against him. If he doesn''t agree to appoint me as the commander of Sili, we will send troops to Yanzhou. This is enough to make Cao Cao obey. "


    Today''s Cao Cao is not strong enough.


    Cao Cao''s small-scale rise is to win Yuan Shu, defeat Lv Bu and annex Guanzhong.


    That''s the power.


    The real rise of Cao Cao is that he defeated Yuan Shao and captured Jizhou and other places.


    But now, it is far from enough.


    Cao Cao''s strength is far from perfect.


    Zhang Xiu''s overall strength is really inferior to Cao Cao, but Zhang Xiu is not afraid to wear shoes barefoot. His strength was weak, but Cao Cao could not come out to attack Zhang Xiu, otherwise Cao Cao would be unstable.


    Because Cao Cao is not like Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao beat Gongsun Zan without fighting back. It can be said that Yuan Shao has no worries now, but Cao Cao is his enemy on all sides.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what about the second point?"


    Jia Yu replied, "please send a notice to the people in Guanzhong, calling on the people in Guanzhong to return to live in Guanzhong, and inviting countless people hiding in the mountains to return to their original places."


    "It''s just a notice calling on the people to return. It''s hard to attract people."


    "Inside, there are three main points."


    "The first point is that the people who return to Guanzhong can get the seeds free of charge and get the land for cultivation."


    "The second point is that the returning people do not have to worry about food and clothing. However, the government will make unified arrangements for the work of the common people who return to Guanzhong, giving them food and money to support their families. Today, Guanzhong is empty, with ditches and farmland abandoned everywhere. The government takes the lead in providing work relief, which is enough to support countless people. "


    "The third key point is that if the people who return to Guanzhong are literate, they will be given priority in selecting and appointing them to the posts of District, pavilion and township heads in order to enrich the local people."


    Jia Xu put forward the method of resuming production.


    Only relying on the local people in Guanzhong, it takes countless time to recover.


    Only with the help of the government.


    Only by calling people back to their hometown and giving them all kinds of conveniences can they succeed.


    The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.


    Even for ordinary people, they need to be driven by interests to do things.


    Zhang Xiu even said three good words, with a look of praise on her face, and said: "what you are worried about is that you will surely trigger a wave of Guanzhong people returning home."


    Jia Xu said: "the Lord once killed the Huns, which was very powerful and respected by countless scholars. The announcement made by the Lord in Guanzhong will surely win the support of countless people. "


    Zhang xiudao: "mistakenly praised."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "what about the third step?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "the operation of the third step is actually very simple, which is to imitate the second step."


    "The Lord issued another notice, the book of telling the world to the scholars, stating the situation in Guanzhong and the lack of talents to govern the place. He called on the talented people to show their talents in Guanzhong."


    "In order to attract talents with the reputation of the Lord, it is expected that many people will come to join us. As a matter of fact, the Lord also needs to recruit talents. The talents and scholars recommended by Kuai Liang alone are not enough. "


    Jia Xu put forward a third strategy.


    "That''s true," said Zhang Xiu


    Today''s Zhang Xiu has won youfufeng and jingzhaoyin. Next, she will win other counties in Sili area, which requires countless talents.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you are responsible for the three things mentioned by Wen he. You can arrange them immediately."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, he has been used to it for a long time now, and feels like a fish in water. Because most of the suggestions he put forward, Zhang Xiu would directly adopt whatever was beneficial to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 262

    Pang Tong admired Jia Xu''s wisdom. His plans were closely linked and his thinking was extremely meticulous.


    He was greatly admired.


    This is also the reason why Pang Tong treated Jia Xu as a teacher. In Jia Xu''s side, you can always learn a lot of knowledge, whether it''s the truth of life, or the strategy of giving advice.


    Seeing that Jia Xu had finished, Pang Tong added: "Lord, I think there is still one thing to deal with."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Pang Tong had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "after Li Xi and Guo Si were captured, they have been imprisoned in the army. No matter Li he or Guo Si, they were notorious in Sili area and were reviled by countless people. If we don''t kill two people, it''s hard to calm the public anger. Therefore, I believe that Li Xi and Guo Si should be executed. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s really time to deal with them."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "the reason why we didn''t kill Li Xi and Guo Si before was that it was useless to kill them. Shiyuan, it''s up to you to tell all the people that after ten days, Li Xi and Guo Si will be tried outside the South Gate of Chang''an. We will not kill Li Xi and Guo Si, but leave them to the people to deal with and let them vent their anger. "


    Pang Tong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and Gan Ning again and said, "Han Sheng and Xing Ba, how are you doing with the reorganization of the army?"


    The reorganization of the army is still in progress.


    After all, there are nearly ten thousand soldiers under Li Jian''s command, all of which need to be integrated into Zhang Xiu''s army and form combat effectiveness.


    Huang Zhong said: "Lord, don''t worry. The number of soldiers under the last general has reached 12000. All the soldiers in the army have recovered their fighting capacity. "


    Gan Ning also said: "Lord, the number of soldiers under the last general has reached 12000, and the soldiers are full of combat effectiveness."


    Both of them swallowed Li''s soldiers.


    The rest of the unqualified soldiers were all incorporated into Zhang Xiu''s regular army. Although the overall combat effectiveness of this conventional army is weaker, it is enough to serve as an auxiliary force in the army, and after training, it can have considerable combat effectiveness.


    When everything was arranged properly, everyone went down to perform their duties.


    ¡­¡­


    Chang''an, south of the city.


    There is a Lingyun tower here.


    Once Lingyun building, before Dong Zhuo died, is very prosperous, people come and go, lively.


    When we come to Liu Hong, emperor of the Han Dynasty, it is even more lively.


    Lingyunlou is not a brothel, but a restaurant where peddlers come to drink and chat. This restaurant is a gathering place for Rangers. Many people come to Lingyun building to ask rangers to entrust their tasks.


    The manager of Lingyun building is Shi a.


    This man is the most famous ranger of Chang''an generation. He has excellent swordsmanship. But today''s Lingyun building, not many people, is withered. However, during this period of time, more and more people came and went.


    Those who didn''t come here were all drinkers, and there was no one who asked shiatuofu to do anything.


    This day, Lingyun building.


    Shi a sat in the lobby, looking at the guests who came to drink, with a faint smile on his face. Although no one entrusts his knight errant to handle affairs, during this period of time, there are more wine customers coming to Lingyun building, and they can earn some meager profits.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    All of a sudden, a burst of footwork sounded.


    Shi ah looked up at the door of Lingyun building, and his pupils shrank. Because at the gate of Lingyun building, two soldiers in official uniform entered.


    Shi a knows that Zhang Xiu is not easy to be provoked. Even Li Xi and Guo Si are planted in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Such people can''t be provoked.


    Shi a immediately stood up, went to the door and said, "two officials, what''s the matter?"


    The soldier in charge, with the same look, took out three pieces of high-quality rice paper and said, "this is the notice of the government. It''s all posted in the Lingyun building for people to watch. Don''t tear it up. Do you understand?"


    "Understand, understand!"


    Shia replied with a smile.


    Although Shi a has a great reputation among the Rangers, he always keeps his posture low in front of the officers and soldiers, and does not dare to be arrogant.


    Shi a took three pieces of rice paper, but he was not in a hurry to look at them. He said with a smile, "two officials, it''s a little hot after walking all the way. How about drinking a pot of tea here to quench your thirst?"


    "No!"


    The soldier shook his head, told Shia to stick it on later, and then left.


    Shia looked at the soldier who had left with a look of surprise in his eyes. Before that, he also heard from the people that Zhang Xiu''s army entered Chang''an without any harm to the people.


    All along, he just heard.


    It''s just that I have never been in contact with officers and soldiers. Now I have personal experience when I personally contact with officers and soldiers. Shi a had seen the soldiers of Xiliang army under Li He. They were arrogant and self righteous.


    And every time I go to Lingyun building, I have to blackmail and take some wine and meat. But Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, even if Shi a let them stay for tea, no one stopped.This surprised Shia.


    "Shi ah, what''s the notice from the government? Read it quickly."


    "That''s it. Read it quickly."


    "I can''t read. Even if I post it, it''s useless. Read it out quickly and see what news the government has. "


    "Well, I hope it''s not a tax increase."


    ¡­¡­


    All the drinkers began to drink. These people drink wine and tea in the wine shop, and pay special attention to the news outside. This is not only a conversation, but also a way to let themselves know the news.


    Shia picked up the first notice.


    He looked at it again, with an unexpected look on his face. After half a sound, Shi ashen took a deep breath, faced the crowd with a smile, and said with a smile, "you guys, this is great news. General Zhang ordered that Li Xi and Guo Si would be put on trial outside the South Gate of Chang''an ten days later. "


    "Good!"


    All of a sudden, there was a cry in the lobby.


    One by one, people drinking tea are full of joy on their faces.


    "Guo Si killed countless people, plundered the people and squeezed the people''s fat. He should have died long ago. General Zhang has done a good job this time. "


    "Well done


    "General Zhang did a good job in killing Li He."


    "Li Xi and Guo Si are the disasters of ten thousand years. They have caused countless deaths. It''s time to kill, it''s time to kill! "


    One by one, they were all indignant.


    As a matter of fact, Li Xi and Guo Si occupied Guanzhong, which made it difficult for countless people to survive.


    Guo Si and Li Ying, no matter what famous family, no matter what aristocratic family, as long as they were people in Guanzhong, no matter ordinary people, or noble officials, or even aristocratic families, they all plundered.


    In other states, although yellow scarf thieves are rampant and there are many thieves and bandits, the power of the aristocratic families is strong, and neither the thieves nor the yellow scarf thieves can get in, and the aristocratic families are not affected.


    Li Xi is different from Guo Si.


    They had enough troops to plunder and no one could resist.


    As a result, there were countless deaths and injuries among the people in Guanzhong.


    As a result, all the powerful families in Guanzhong were destroyed, and some families moved away.


    Li Xi and Guo Si are like locusts, where there is no grass. As a result, countless people hated Li Xi and Guo Si and wanted to eat their meat and sleep their skin.


    Shi a see one by one angry voice, in the heart secretly praise Zhang Xiu means. Although he is not a witty person, at least Zhang Xiu''s hand can be understood.


    If Zhang xiusha killed Li Xi and Guo Si, he could win the hearts of countless people and make countless people belong to him.


    After a long time of excitement, the crowd calmed down and said, "there are three notices. What about the second one?"


    Shia turned out a notice again.

 Chapter 263

    Shi a glanced quickly. After reading the second notice, he had a smile on his face and said: "the second notice is to call on the people in Guanzhong to return to youfufeng and jingzhaoyin. As long as the people return, the government will distribute seeds and arrange things to do so as to support their families. Those who read and read will be selected and appointed by the government and placed in local posts. "


    When they heard this, they were all in front of their eyes.


    People in wine shops always don''t care about farming.


    What they care about is that there are officials.


    That''s what people care about most.


    "What''s the third notice, Shia?"


    In the crowd, someone spoke again.


    Shi a quickly picked up the third notice. After reading it, he said: "the content of the third notice is the notice that general Zhang told the world. General Zhang''s recruitment of talented people, regardless of origin, regardless of the past, is only about talent. Talented people who go under general Zhang''s command and get general Zhang''s approval will be entrusted with important tasks. "


    WOW!!


    This remark caused a great sensation.


    One by one, it''s all in front of my eyes.


    This notice is not only for ordinary people, but also for people in Guanzhong.


    They saw the opportunity.


    "Thanks, Shia. If Lao Tzu can get an official position, he will come to Lingyun building to drink


    "Gone, gone."


    "Go and try your luck."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one the drinkers got up and went out quickly.


    They are all ready to take a chance. What if they can become officials? Shi A''s eyes swept and found that the drinkers in Lingyun building had gone more than half at once, and there were not many people left.


    Shi a put up the three notices in the most conspicuous place, arranged for the boy to take charge of the affairs, and got up to go to the backyard of Lingyun building.


    Lingyun building covers a large area.


    There are more than ten mu in front and back.


    In the backyard, there are rockery, flowing water, pavilions, ponds and lotus leaves. The scenery is very pleasant.


    As soon as Shi a arrived in the backyard, he came to the Pavilion by the pond and looked at an old man who was tasting tea. The old man is nearly 50 years old, thin and white.


    His arms are very long, his fingers are thick, and his palms are covered with cocoons. Although the old man is old, his face is not wrinkled, his face is ruddy, his eyes are bright, and he is not old at all.


    Shi a walked up to the old man, looked respectful, bowed his body and said: "teacher!"


    The old man is Shi A''s teacher.


    His name is Wang Yue.


    When Emperor Hanling was alive, Wang Yue was appointed general Huben. Although Wang Yue didn''t have real power and didn''t take charge of the army, at least Emperor Ling of Han asked him to teach Liu Xie''s swordsmanship. He had something to do and he had a lot of face to say.


    When Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Wang Yue was dismissed from office.


    Since then, Wang Yue has been idle at home.


    In the early years, Wang Yue''s lingyunlou was in Luoyang. Later, Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Chang''an. Wang Yue''s lingyunlou came to Chang''an again and has taken root in Chang''an ever since.


    In his heart, Wang Yue wanted to make contributions. His martial arts are so wasted that he is reluctant to do so.


    Unfortunately, there is no way to serve the country.


    Wang Yue inquired, "what''s the matter?"


    Shi a said: "teacher, just now Zhang Xiu issued three notices. The first is the public trial of Li Xi and Guo Si. The second is to call on the people in Guanzhong to return to their hometown. The third is to recruit talented people to go there. This time, we can only recruit talented people, regardless of their origin. "


    Wang Yue''s eyes brightened when he heard the speech.


    Although he is nearly 50 years old, he still wants to be an official and show his ambition.


    For Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue is also clear.


    This is a man of great ability.


    Defeat Huang Jin, kill Xiongnu, retreat Cao Cao, even Guo Si and Li Yi, such a person is bound to have a bright future.


    Wang Yue slapped the stone table in the pavilion and said, "apprentice, go and clean it up. We master and apprentice go to see Zhang Xiu together, and strive for his reuse. "


    Shi a shook his head and said: "teacher, if we all get the respect of Zhang Xiu, what about Lingyun building? You see, if you go, the disciples will stay at Lingyun tower. "


    "Bullshit!"


    Wang Yue snorted and slapped Shi a on the shoulder.


    Shia puffed his cheek.


    Although Wang Yue is not tall, not burly and even old, his strength is incomparable. A slap fell on Shi A''s shoulder. Even if Shi a had outstanding swordsmanship and martial arts, he would show his teeth in pain.


    Wang Yueda''s sleeve flicked and said, "let''s all go. If we can be officials, who cares about Lingyun building? It''s just a place to chat and pass the time. You can make contributions, you can keep your wife and children, and you can stay in Lingyun building. "


    Although Wang Yue is old, his temper is not old.


    He has a straight heart.


    It is precisely Wang Yue''s careless nature, unsociable and hatred of evil, so although he was appointed as general Huben by Emperor Hanling, he did not gain any important position or connections.This is Wang Yue''s defect.


    Wang Yue knew that his own temperament, as always, had not changed, and he still went his own way.


    Shi a heard Wang Yue''s words and said: "the teacher arranged, and the disciples obeyed."


    Wang Yue said: "this is my good disciple. Let''s start from the back door. Let''s go. Go to General Zhang''s mansion at once. "


    "Yes


    Shia immediately responded.


    He immediately arranged for people to prepare a carriage. They left the house and took the carriage straight to Zhang Xiu''s general''s house.


    It''s not far from Lingyun building to general''s mansion.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    The wheels turned and the carriage moved quickly forward.


    Wang Yue looked at his disciple and said, "apprentice, when you come to General Zhang''s residence, don''t hide yourself and don''t worry about me. Do you understand me?"


    "Yes


    Shia nodded.


    Wang Yue heard Shi A''s reply, but he was not satisfied. He once again asked: "your boy''s swordsmanship has already entered the arena. However, you always like to hide and tuck in, and you are more concerned about my face. "


    "If I lose the election, you will not go all out with me in mind."


    "But you should remember that I taught you martial arts in the hope that you would be better than others. The more powerful you are, the more happy I am. On the contrary, I don''t like you forever as my follower, do you understand? "


    Wang Yue spoke with great care.


    As teachers, they all hope that their disciples will have a better future.


    "I understand!"


    Shia replied again.


    Wang Yue just nodded. He knew his disciples. Shi a always liked to hide himself and didn''t like to expose all his strength. Wang Yue''s swordsmanship has reached its peak. Although he can steadily suppress Shi a, he knows that at most ten years, at that time, his Qi and blood completely declined. At that time, he can''t win Shi a.


    Most of the time when they had a conversation, Wang Yue kept on talking.


    Shia, listen patiently.


    He knew that this was Wang Yue''s love. His parents died when he was young, and he was helpless. It was Wang Yue who took him in so that he could have a bite to eat and learn martial arts.


    This is what Shi a is most grateful to Wang Yue.


    When the carriage arrived at the gate of the general''s residence, Wang took a deep breath, shook his robes and strode out of the carriage.


    Shi a followed, standing beside Wang Yue.


    They looked up at the towering general''s house, and they were awed by it for no reason.


    This is the natural advantage of official standard.


    As long as the ordinary people, in front of officials, naturally a short class.


    Wang Yue raised his robe, strode forward to the door, looked at the soldiers stationed at the door, and said: "please inform me, Wang Yue and Shi a of Chang''an, please see General Zhang. We saw General Zhang''s notice and came to offer ourselves. "


    "Just a moment!"


    At the soldier''s command, he turned and entered.


    When the soldier came to the study in the backyard, he saw Zhang Xiu, who was dealing with government affairs, and reported: "general, there are two people outside the house. One is Wang Yue, and the other is Shi A. he said that when he saw your notice, he came to offer himself. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    He showed an unexpected look.


    Wang Yue and Shi a are here. You know, their martial arts skills are extremely powerful. For ordinary people, Zhang Xiu really does not necessarily meet.


    Because Zhang Xiu specially let Jia Xu arrange a recruitment hall to accept the taxi. If the people who come to join Zhang Xiu, they all need to find Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to do anything, just need to receive these people.


    Just as it happens, Zhang Xiu knows Wang Yue and Shi a.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go to inform me and invite them to the hall."


    "Here it is


    The soldier nodded.


    Zhang Xiu changed his robe, wore a sword and a long crown, and strode to the hall.

 Chapter 264

    Wang Yue and Shi a had been waiting at the door. After a short time, they saw the soldiers come out. The expression on the two faces, immediately had the look of expectation, hoping to get Zhang Xiu''s summon.


    The soldier said, "follow me!"


    "Thank you very much."


    After thanking Wang Yue, he quickly entered with Shi a.


    Two people arrive in the hall, Zhang Xiu hasn''t come yet, the heart can''t help but feel uneasy.


    Although Shi A''s temperament is calm, when he arrived at the general''s house, he also looked solemn and slightly uneasy, and said, "teacher, will general Zhang hang us up and give us a bad impression?"


    "Wait and see what happens!"


    Wang Yue seems very calm.


    Although he is calm, in fact, his heart is extremely anxious, looking forward to the arrival of Zhang Xiu. After waiting for a short time, they heard footsteps outside the room.


    Two people together to the door to see, surprised to see the entry of Zhang Xiu.


    In terms of age, Zhang Xiu is younger than Shi a. Zhang Xiu''s age is too young to be a son to Wang Yue. When he appears, Wang Yue and Shi a are surprised.


    Is this Zhang Xiu?


    So young?


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is only 20 years old, straight and handsome, sword eyebrows long eyes, eyes black and shiny, has an extraordinary bearing. He strode in and saw Wang Yue and Shi a.


    Wang Yue touched Shi a and said, "Wang Yue, I''ve met General Zhang."


    Shi said: "Shi, I''ve met General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu nodded her head in return, with a look of approval on her face. She went straight to the throne and sat down. Her eyes fell on Wang Yue and Shi a, and said, "you are welcome to join us."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "it''s just that if you don''t have any real materials, you can''t have a foothold here. I will not care about my family background or the past, but only my ability and talent. In my place, there are capable people. Do you have the ability to be praised by Ben? "


    Although Zhang Xiu knows the martial arts of Shi a and Wang Yue, she still has to go.


    That''s the rule!


    With a smile on his face, Wang Yue said, "report back to General Zhang, the old master and apprentice are good at swordsmanship. Although I''m nearly 50 years old, I don''t know how many people are old opponents when it comes to swordsmanship. As for the old disciple, he is nearly 30 years old, and his swordsmanship has become a little mature. He is good at assassinating and is hard to meet his opponent. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to know?"


    Wang Yue replied: "in fact, it''s very simple. You just need general Zhang to call someone. Anyone can do it. As long as it''s a contest of swordsmanship, I''ll be the first to fight. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu ordered: "Deng Zhan!"


    "Yes


    Deng Zhan''s voice came from outside the hall. Dressed in black, he strode into the hall.


    Before that, Deng Zhan escorted Huang Xu and Huang Wan north to Yuyang county. After arriving in Yuyang County, Deng Zhan handed the man over to Xu Shu, so he stopped staying and galloped all the way to Chang''an.


    It didn''t take him long to arrive in Chang''an as a bodyguard to protect Zhang Xiu.


    Deng Zhan entered the hall and stood tall.


    At this time, Wang Yue also looked at Deng Zhan. He saw Deng Zhan''s slender arms, hands hanging in front of him, his body ready to go, his eyes shining.


    This is a master with a sword.


    But there was no fear in Wang Yue''s heart. He has been in the world for decades. He has seen countless swords and swords, countless blood storms, and countless martial arts masters. He will not be afraid because of this.


    He has enough confidence and confidence.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Deng Zhan, this is Wang Yue and Shi a, who are masters of swordsmanship. Now they offer themselves. As a swordsman, you can compete with them. Go all out, don''t keep your hand. Otherwise, it''s you who lose face. "


    "Here it is


    Deng Zhan looks calm.


    He looked at Wang Yue and Shi a and said, "are they attacking in groups or one-on-one?"


    Now Deng Zhan has made great progress in strength.


    Once upon a time, he was deficient in both strength and swordsmanship. But today''s Deng Zhan, after being polished by Zhang Xiu and even compared with Gan Ning and Chen Zhi, has made great progress in his swordsmanship.


    It''s a small success.


    Wang Yue laughed and said calmly, "I''ve always been besieged by others. I haven''t joined hands with others yet. I will fight you first. "


    With Shi a in, Wang Yue generally doesn''t do it. But this time he volunteered. He wanted to leave a good impression on Zhang Xiu, so he took the lead in fighting shi''a.


    Wang Yue''s intention is to win simply and neatly.


    Only in this way can we make a good impression.


    Wang Yue stood in front of Deng Zhan and said, "General Zhang, please take a sword. I use Epee, not light sword. The heavier the sword, the better. "


    "No problem!"Zhang Xiu responded directly.


    He immediately arranged for the soldiers to get a sword weighing 20 jin.


    Under normal circumstances, the sword reaches 20 jin, which belongs to epee. Guns, sticks and other weapons are heavier. They can hold the weapons in the middle. Even if they are heavy, they can be like arms.


    But the sword is different. It''s all by holding the handle. Once the body of the sword is too heavy, it can''t be used flexibly.


    It''s more suitable for ten jin sword.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t doubt that Wang Yue used Epee, because he knew that Wang Yue was the first swordsman.


    After a short time, the soldier took an epee.


    The body of the sword is three inches six wide, four feet long, and the handle is one foot long, which is extremely heavy. Wang Yue took the epee and held it in his hand. After weighing it over, he showed approval on his face and said, "yes, yes! It''s a good sword. "


    He held his sword in one hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Deng Zhan, please!"


    "Please


    Deng Zhan pulled out his sword and held it in his hand. He didn''t want to be big either. He took a sword flower and stabbed it out quickly. The light of the sword flickered. A stream of light flashed by, and the edge of the sword stabbed Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue stepped on the eight characters and did not move at all.


    His face was calm and calm. When the blade of the sword was only three feet away from him, Wang Yue turned his wrist, twisted his waist, poured the power of his right hand, lifted the sword up and pushed the end of the handle up.


    "Bang!"


    The end of the hilt hits the blade.


    In a flash, Deng Zhan''s sword was swung away, and Deng Zhan''s offensive was broken immediately.


    Wang Yue got the upper hand, stepped on the ground, and quickly moved forward with one arrow step. He rushed to Deng Zhan and gave a low drink. He raised his left hand and held the hilt with his right hand. He swung the epee and cut it down.


    This sword is as fast as lightning.


    Deng Zhan was too close to Wang Yue to retreat. He can stab Wang Yue with his sword, but if he can''t resist it, the blade will fall down enough to split him in two.


    The only thing Deng Zhan can do is to block the sword. At the moment, he was also in a state of mind. His right hand held the handle of the sword, and the palm of his left hand was close to the blade itself.


    "Whew!"


    The Epee fell on the ground with the sound of breaking.


    "Dang!"


    The next moment, the blade of the sword hit Deng Zhan''s blade.


    When Deng Zhan and Wang Yue met each other, their faces changed greatly. He held the sword''s arm, bending inward under the impact of great force, holding the handle of the palm of the sword, the mouth of the tiger was numb and painful.


    "Kick! Kick off


    He has a shaky foothold and keeps retreating.


    Wang Yue''s cutting down with a sword laid an advantage, which made Deng Zhan hard to resist. However, such a fight is not enough to tell the outcome. Wang Yue stepped on the ground and kept rushing forward. In a flash, he came to Deng Zhan again.


    "Kill


    Wang Yue swung his sword again.


    He doesn''t have any extra moves, just saber chop. But the speed of his sword is fast and the strength of his sword is strong. Deng Zhan can''t avoid it and can''t resist it at all.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    One after another, the sound of impact, constantly sounded.


    Deng Zhan kept retreating, completely falling into Wang Yue''s rhythm, which was almost irresistible.

 Chapter 265

    "Kick! Kick off


    Deng Zhan was attacked by Wang Yue, and his face was flushed. He tried his best to resist, even blood in his eyes, and even his arm holding the sword was numb.


    The palm of the hand holding the sword, the mouth of the tiger torn, the red blood overflowed, dyed the hilt red.


    "Let go!"


    All of a sudden, Wang Yue gave a loud drink.


    He swung his Epee again and cut it off.


    With a single sword, it''s as powerful as a sword.


    When the edge of Epee fell on the edge of Deng Zhan''s sword, Deng Zhan snorted, and the iron sword in his hand flew out, and the whole person retreated quickly.


    As he retreated continuously, he couldn''t hold his body and sat down on the ground.


    A trace of red blood overflowed from Deng Zhan''s mouth. The palm of Deng Zhan''s right hand was burning and his arms were sore. He raised his left hand and covered his chest, which made his internal organs extremely uncomfortable.


    Under Wang Yue''s successive attacks, he has been seriously injured.


    At least, it''s not the first World War.


    Wang Yue took a look at Deng Zhan. If he fought in the battlefield, he didn''t need to use the move of "one force down ten meetings". Soon after the fight, he would be enough to kill Deng Zhan.


    In order to show his strength, Deng Zhan was so hard hit.


    Wang Yue took back his sword, turned to Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, I''m old enough to make a fool of myself. Just now, I went all out to hurt Deng Zhan and asked General Zhang to punish him. "


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said: "in martial arts competition, the skills are inferior to those of others. There is nothing to punish. The swordsman Wang Yue deserves his reputation. One hand of swordsmanship is as skillful as one''s own, and one can break ten thousand methods. Wang Jianshi''s swordsmanship is admirable. "


    Wang Yue said: "General Zhang''s praise is wrong."


    Zhang Xiu looked at Deng Zhan and asked, "Deng Zhan, can we fight again?"


    Just now, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan had a contest, but Shi a had not made a move. Originally, Zhang Xiu didn''t need Deng Zhan to do it, but after Deng Zhan''s martial arts improved, especially when he came back to Zhang Xiu, he was a bit adrift and looked at the sky.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu uses Wang Yue and Shi A''s hands to beat Deng Zhan.


    Deng Zhan is modest and hardworking only when he has pressure.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Deng Zhan covered his choked chest and coughed twice. As soon as he coughed, he affected the injured internal organs, which was very uncomfortable. However, he had a rebellious look on his face. He took a deep breath, suppressed the injury in his body, and said: "don''t worry, general, there will be another war in the end!"


    "I''m looking forward to your performance," Zhang said


    Deng Zhan uses his sword to cut a part of his robe from his shirt and quickly wrap it around the tiger mouth of his right hand. After simple bandaging, he wipes the blood from the corner of his mouth, looks at Shi a with his sword and says: "Nanyang Deng Zhan, please teach me!"


    He has a sharp eye.


    This time, Deng Zhan is not allowed to lose again.


    Only win, not lose.


    Shi a looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, I don''t have a sword. Just give me an ordinary long sword."


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered to go down.


    The soldier took a sword and handed it to Shia.


    With a sword in hand, Shia''s dull and honest expression completely disappeared, and was replaced by endless spirit. If the former Shi''a was hiding his sword in a box. Now Shi''a is the sword coming out of the sheath.


    "Please


    Shia''s sword is across his chest. Please move.


    "Kill


    Deng Zhan drinks low, steps at his feet, and the whole person rushes out quickly, killing Shi a in an instant. Deng Zhan did not dare to keep his hand at this time. His plan was to make a quick decision.


    The edge of the sword approaches Shi''a and takes Shi''a''s throat.


    Shia''s face was calm, without the slightest fear. The edge of the sword in his hand rose and thrust forward obliquely. When the front of Deng Zhan''s sword came close to him, his sword bared and stuck to Deng Zhan''s sword. He went down along the front of Deng Zhan''s sword and took Deng Zhan''s hand.


    Between the electric light and flint, Deng Zhan''s hand has been approached.


    Deng Zhan''s face was awe inspiring and he quickly withdrew his sword.


    As soon as he withdrew his sword, Shi a quickly followed him like a ghost, which made him unable to escape.


    Deng Zhan can only arrive in a hurry.


    At the moment, Deng Zhan has a strange feeling.


    The former Wang Yue''s epee had no edge, sharp edge, powerful power, and great skill. In front of Wang Yue, he had no chance to evade, so that he was tired of dealing with it and finally lost.


    In front of him, if it''s a head-on fight, he can block it. The problem is that Shia has never confronted him head-on, attacking him like a ghost.


    Under Shi A''s continuous attacks, Deng Zhan has been tired of coping.


    He wanted to defeat Shia head on.


    The problem is that Shi A''s body method is quick and secretive, and he doesn''t confront him head-on at all, which makes him gnash his teeth with hatred,


    "whew!"


    All of a sudden, the sound of the sword breaking through the air came from behind Deng Zhan.


    Deng Zhan turned around in a hurry and quickly blocked the sword. However, when he put out his sword, Shi A''s sword suddenly turned and the blade fell."Pa!"


    A dull sound came out.


    The body of the sword was slapped on Deng Zhan''s right wrist.


    Deng Zhan''s face changed greatly. He looked at Shi a, who was retreating and ready to attack at any time, but stopped and said, "I lost!"


    "Yes," said Shia


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes and praised her.


    He can see Shi A''s sword move just now. Shi A''s sword fell on Deng Zhan''s wrist. If the blade of the sword fell, it would be enough to split Deng Zhan''s wrist and make it difficult for him to hold the sword.


    This is Shiliu''s hand.


    At the moment, Deng Zhan looks gloomy.


    When it comes to swordsmanship, he is far inferior to Wang Yue in frontal attack. When it comes to flexibility and sophistication, he is not as good as Shi a.


    He was totally invincible in front of them.


    Looking at the dejected Deng Zhan, Zhang Xiu patted Deng Zhan on the shoulder and said, "if you know that there are people out there, there is a day out there, you should put away your mind and hone your martial arts."


    "I''ll do it


    At the moment, Deng Zhan has no previous pride.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and Shi a and said, "do you want to take up the official position


    "It''s all up to General Zhang."


    Wang Yue answered directly.


    Shi a also echoed, did not put forward any request.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Jianshi and Shi a are good at swordsmanship. They are well-informed people in the Jianghu. In this way, we will set up a special organization called the royal guards, which will be responsible for information and infiltration into the States. General Wang Yue is in full charge of the royal guards and is directly subordinate to the general. Shi a, as Wang Yue''s deputy, has full power to assist Wang Yue. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue was excited.


    Although he was only the official post of General Li, he was in charge of information inquiry and was directly subordinate to Zhang Xiu, which strengthened his power.


    It''s like being respected.


    Compared with the fact that he was once appointed as general Huben by Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, although he had a high official position and high salary at that time, he was not reused and had no existence value.


    Today, he has a place to play.


    Wang Yue is full of energy at the moment.


    Shi ah also agreed. The happier he saw Wang, the more excited he was. The happier he felt for Wang.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "you should deal with the things in your hands first and deal with the things at home well. Then, he came to the general''s house to report. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue and Shi a bow down.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Wang Yue''s retreating figure, and she is also happy in her heart.


    To have Wang Yue''s loyalty, he would have an intelligence agency. He set up the royal guards. For the time being, he just asked Wang Yue to inquire about the news and infiltrate all over the country. As for more powers, he would not let them go at once, otherwise he would easily lose control.


    In the hall, only Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan were left.


    At this moment, Deng Zhan''s face was hot and said, "Lord, I''m ashamed of your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue is a world-famous master of swordsmanship. It''s no shame to lose to him. I don''t care whether I win or not. This will be just hope, you can''t forget your heart, can''t forget the past, your mother''s teaching, be a down-to-earth man. "


    "Yes


    Deng Zhandao: "humble duty, remember the Lord''s instruction."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Deng Zhan stepped down.


    In fact, it''s not only Deng Zhan who''s gone with the wind, but also many generals under Zhang Xiu''s command. From Nanyang County to Guanzhong, it is no longer a dependency, but a real exclusive party.


    It''s a change of mind.


    We should also be vigilant.


    Once the army deteriorates, there will be bullying and self righteous people. It''s a bad beginning for everyone to be arrogant and start to be overbearing. Li Xi and Guo Si are just lessons from the past.

 Chapter 266

    Zhang Xiu''s findings are the conclusion of his inspection of the barracks.


    He always believed in his own judgment.


    Zhang Xiu had some thoughts in her heart, but she didn''t hesitate. She immediately arranged for someone to invite Jia Xu. Not long after, Jia Xu entered the general''s residence, met Zhang Xiu, saluted and said, "my Lord, what''s the matter?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "the reason why I invited my husband here is that I found that when I entered Guanzhong, impetuous arrogance and even tyranny were bred in the army."


    Jia Xu looked at Zhang Xiu in surprise. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would say such a thing.


    Young people tend to be young and vigorous.


    Zhang Xiu is very calm.


    Jia Xu also found the pride growing in the army. He even heard some rumors that the soldiers in the army went to the street to eat, drink and pay bills while they were at rest, and even threatened the businessmen who were doing business.


    These were never seen in Nanyang County.


    Only in Guanzhong can this happen.


    Although there will always be some moths in an army, and a small number of them will affect the image of the army, we can''t condone them.


    In the long run, the army is bound to deteriorate.


    Jia Xu said: "what the LORD said is reasonable. I don''t know what he plans to do with it."


    Zhang xiudao: "set up a model, punish severely!"


    This is the simplest and most direct way.


    Make an example and it will always apply.


    Jia Xu understood Zhang Xiu''s meaning and said: "the Lord''s meaning is to investigate the situation by the humble leader and set up a model by severe punishment."


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Jia Xu arched his hand and said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, there was a cry of soldiers outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    A soldier quickly entered and reported: "inform the general, at the gate of the general''s mansion, someone called for justice and asked the general to do justice."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the situation?"


    The soldier replied, "there are ten people from outside. Six of them are the generals in our army. Two of them are the shopkeepers and assistants of the wine shop. There is also a middle-aged scholar and a strong man."


    "The middle-aged literati sued our generals for the shopkeeper of the wine shop, saying that the generals in the army went to the wine shop to drink, gave a white note and didn''t give money, and broke many tables and chairs."


    "According to the middle-aged literati, these generals were all white slips a few days ago."


    "Our general, still drunk. It''s the shopkeeper of the wine shop who looks timid. The general and the middle-aged man are the ones who take the men out of the mansion


    The soldier gave a quick account of the situation.


    Zhang Xiu frowned, but also immediately ordered: "take people to the hall."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wen he, it seems that the situation in the army is not optimistic. It''s just when it comes to the tyranny of officers and men in the army, that''s what happened. "


    Jia Xu said: "this kind of thing, early outbreak, early settlement. If you drag it behind, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    "That''s true," Zhang said


    They chatted, got up and went to the hall.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the entrance of the hall, she looked up into the hall. He saw the middle-aged literati in black robes, with a touch of doubt between his eyebrows and eyes.


    Because in the hall, there was a thin and tall figure in a black robe, whose back was very familiar.


    For a moment, I couldn''t remember.


    With doubts, Zhang Xiu strides in.


    When Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu enter the hall, the slender figure turns around and faces Zhang Xiu with a faint smile.


    In a flash, Zhang Xiu''s eyes widened.


    Rao was surprised by his city.


    "Met General Zhang!"


    The thin middle-aged man opened his mouth with a smile on his face and a touch of extraordinary bearing. He looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, I haven''t seen you for a long time."


    When Jia Xu saw the middle-aged man, he was also surprised. Immediately, Jia Xu recovered calm, light said: "after years no see, Wenyou style is still."


    It turned out to be Li Ru, Dong Zhuo''s most trusted counselor.


    Li Ru is an excellent writer.


    He is Dong Zhuo''s son-in-law and a confidant counselor. There is no doubt that Li Ru has contributed to Dong Zhuo''s success in establishing himself in Guanzhong. In terms of qualifications, Jia Xu is under Dong Zhuo, which is much worse than Li Ru.


    This is also the reason why Jia Xu was shocked.


    Unexpectedly, Li Ru came.


    Zhang Xiu''s "letter to the people in Guanzhong" has exploded people like Li Ru, which is a huge harvest for Zhang Xiu.


    Jia Xu doesn''t think Li Ru is looking for trouble.


    Li ruken came forward, which means that Li Ru is optimistic about Zhang Xiu and intends to work for her.


    Zhang Xiu immediately recovered and said with a smile, "it''s a great honor for Zhang Xiu to be here. Let''s put the old things on hold for the time being. It''s not too late to deal with the present and then to talk about the past. "As soon as this remark came out, several generals in the army began to sweat.


    What''s going on?


    The middle-aged scholar actually knew Zhang Xiu.


    Originally, they still had a little fluke, thinking that Zhang Xiu would protect them, but now, one by one, their eyes were wandering, and they were worried.


    "Good!"


    Li Ru nodded.


    For Zhang Xiu, Li Ru is also quite curious, but also some surprises.


    He has seen Zhang Xiu many times.


    Very familiar with Zhang Xiu.


    Li Ru once had the impression that Zhang Xiu was young, full of vigour, sharp, and strong in character. He didn''t know how to adapt, and lacked flexibility and agility.


    Now, the young man standing in front of him has a calm upper bearing and a kind of indifference after the vicissitudes.


    It''s a big change.


    This is Li Ru''s impression of Zhang Xiu.


    Li Ru has some understanding of Zhang Xiu''s current situation. Killing Xiongnu, defeating Cao Cao and seizing Guanzhong show that Zhang Xiu''s idea is not simple.


    Li Ru has dealt with Cao Cao and knows that Cao Cao is powerful. Just like this, Li Ru would take the initiative to come out after Zhang Xiu posted a notice.


    Before Dong Zhuo was killed, because Dong Zhuo was gradually in a high position, Li Ru lost his enterprising spirit and original intention, indulged in female sex and alienated him. At that time, Li Ru was almost indifferent to the world.


    When Dong Zhuo was killed, some officers and soldiers arranged by Wang Yun and Lv Bu entered his house with the intention of capturing him. Thanks to his quick response and rapid evacuation, he escaped the disaster.


    Rao''s family was killed.


    After Li Yu counterattacked Chang''an, killed Wang Yun, and expelled Lu Bu, Li Ru took the initiative to join Li Yu, hoping to enter his command, and then continue to be an official in the court, so as to avenge his hatred.


    After all, although Wang Yun is dead, Lu Bu is still alive. Because of Wang Yun and Lu Bu, his family died clean.


    He wants revenge.


    It''s a pity that Liu Xie deeply hates Li Ru for killing Liu Bian. He flatly refuses Li''s recommendation and refuses to let Li Ru become an official. So at that time, Li Ru retired and lived in seclusion in Luoyang.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Guanzhong, he became an official again.


    Li Ru is quite optimistic about Zhang Xiu, because after Zhang Xiu entered Guanzhong, he still restrained the soldiers, prohibited them from plundering, and issued a notice to recruit talented people.


    Li Ru took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, I''m drinking in a wine shop. I happened to meet a centurion in your army. He took the other five people to drink wine and eat meat, and gave me a white note instead of money."


    "I can''t stand this kind of person, so I made a few sarcastic remarks, and the other side would fight when they didn''t agree."


    "Thanks to the guards around me, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. I asked the shopkeeper in the wine shop. These people often drink and eat meat in the wine shop. Without exception, they all give white paper and never give money. "


    "But the shopkeeper of the wine shop is too timid to be angry."


    "This time, the tables, chairs and benches were damaged, and the loss was even greater."


    "As the saying goes, if you regard your ministers as your brothers, you will see them as your heart; if you regard them as dogs and horses, you will see them as Chinese; if you regard them as local mustard, you will see them as enemies."


    "Lord, regardless of the people''s life and death, let the people live and die, or even bully the people. How can the people support Lord?"


    "Heart to heart, heart to heart."


    Li Ru spoke with great eloquence and said: "what''s more, general Zhang has just issued a notice calling on countless people in Guanzhong to come back. But the generals under your command criticize and bully the people. Who dares to come? "


    Brush!


    Several generals with bruises and bruises were in a cold sweat, and they were in a panic.


    They all know the power of Li Ru''s words.


    "Plop!"


    One after another, they knelt down, kowtowed and begged for mercy, saying, "general, I''m wrong. Please forgive me."

 Chapter 267

    The generals who bully the common people have a kind of mentality, that is, I have worked hard to defeat Guanzhong, and I have paid countless hardships. Now I enjoy some benefits, which is what I deserve.


    They think that Zhang Xiu at least turned a blind eye to such things.


    But in front of Zhang Xiu, everyone panicked. After the incident, they knew that they might be severely punished, so they knelt down one by one and begged for mercy from Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu ignored the soldiers kneeling on the ground, looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "what''s your name?"


    Shopkeeper way: "villain Nie Fugui!"


    After hearing the name, Zhang Xiu moved in her heart.


    In this era, the mainstream names are two words, while those from poor families are only three words. Through Nie Fugui''s name, Zhang Xiu roughly understood Nie Fugui''s family background and the reason why he was timid and didn''t dare to cause trouble. She then said, "Nie Fugui, you can''t hide here. Do you understand?"


    "Yes


    Nie Fugui answered carefully.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how many ious have you received since our general''s army entered Chang''an?"


    "There are more than thirty!"


    Nie Fugui replied with a touch of helplessness on his face.


    More than 30 IOU means that he has to pay a lot of capital in advance. He is a small business, long-term encounter credit situation, business will be very difficult.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at several generals kneeling on the ground and asked, "these IOU are just those people in front of us, or are there IOU of other generals in the army?"


    "Someone else''s!"


    Nie Fugui replied again.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "let the man go back to the wine shop and bring all the IOU."


    "Here it is


    Nie Fugui turned around and told the man to get the IOU.


    Zhang Xiu''s anger rose in her heart, but she continued to ask with patience: "the general''s army has not been in Chang''an for a long time. In a short time, you have received more than 30 IOU. On average, how many dial generals come to eat free food in a day."


    Nie Fugui said: "on average, five or six dials a day."


    Zhang Xiu smoked at the corner of her mouth.


    He was even more angry. Five or six batches of freeloaders a day were killing Nie Fugui. You know, people like Nie Fugui are small businesses and earn some hard money.


    It''s not easy.


    It happened that so many people went to play autumn.


    He kept asking questions to understand the situation of Nie Fugui''s restaurant. In addition, he also inquired about the radical behavior of the generals in the city, as well as various improper places.


    Nie Fugui answers Zhang Xiu''s questions truthfully.


    Just like this, the generals and soldiers kneeling on the ground were all terrified.


    They are even more worried.


    If things get worse, I''m afraid simple punishment can''t solve the problem.


    It''s not long. Man''s back.


    A stack of IOU brought by the man, all handed to Zhang Xiu''s hand.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the names on the white paper, she immediately arranged for the soldiers to call all the people involved in the IOU according to the names on the IOU.


    There were 15 people.


    Among these 15 people, some of them have repeatedly issued IOU.


    Zhang Xiu knows that there is more than that. There is only one person who can get a IOU. There are many people who can go to a restaurant to have a meal together.


    He asked again.


    One by one, 50 people were arrested again.


    The hall has been unable to kneel down, and all the offenders are kneeling in the courtyard outside the hall.


    Zhang Xiu made an inventory of it, and all the IOU accumulated to nearly 8000. For Zhang Xiu, the 8000 yuan is a drop in the bucket, but for Nie Fugui''s small business, it is a huge sum of money.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to take 10000 yuan and hand it to Nie Fugui, saying: "this 10000 yuan is your compensation. This time, Ben will deal with it immediately and give you justice. If you don''t hear about their departure, you come to the general''s house to find me. "


    Nie Fugui said thank you.


    He was relieved when the debt was recovered.


    For the rest, he doesn''t care.


    Nie Fugui left the general''s mansion with his staff, but Zhang Xiu didn''t give up. He immediately ordered, "come, call Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a short time, Huang Zhong and his wife arrived at the general''s residence.


    Zhang Xiu said: "come and see which generals are under your command."


    Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning knew all the generals in the army very well and soon recognized them.


    All three men have committed crimes.


    The three don''t know yet.


    Huang Zhong asked, "general, what happened?"


    Zhang Xiu said that officers and soldiers eat overlord meal to make a white note, and asked, "what do you think should be done?"Chen Dao''s eyes were sharp, and said: "general, the salary of the army has never been less, but the officers and men are so willful and reckless, so they should be punished severely. Those who are under the command of humble posts will be punished with sixty staff and two months'' salary. "


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning immediately agreed.


    Both of them agreed with Chen Dao''s suggestion that if the 60th army sticks down, people will be beaten to death.


    On the buttocks, it''s absolutely bloody. It''s a heavy punishment.


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said: "the punishment of the staff of the 60th army is not enough to pacify the people. At five o''clock tomorrow morning, gather your respective soldiers and assemble outside the south gate. "


    "In the presence of all the people, the staff is responsible for 60 military staff. No staff can be spared. It must be severely punished."


    "Only in this way can we kill the chickens and frighten the monkeys."


    "Once upon a time, the generals under Guo Si''s command were punished for their salaries, but they were killed completely. Nowadays, some people are overbearing, and it is difficult to be deterred without heavy punishment. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the lessons of Guo Si and Li Yi are right in front of us."


    "These two men are still in custody in the army and have not been tried in public. They have a bad reputation. Countless people want to eat their meat and sleep their skin. They lose the hearts of the people, and the people hate and resent the people. If we do, we will not be far away from defeat. "


    "The three of you are the chief generals in the army. You can''t just think about training the army and enhancing combat effectiveness."


    "Discipline in the army is equally important, and it is also a standard for measuring combat effectiveness."


    Zhang Xiu said, "is that clear?"


    Huang Zhong said, "I understand your humble position."


    Chen Dao said, "I will obey the general''s instruction."


    Gan Ning said: "when you go back to your humble position, you will continue to publicize and implement it. If you still owe a white note, you will immediately make up for it. Nie Fugui''s business is just one of them. It is expected that the rest of the merchants and peddlers may also be owed money. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "Xing Ba is right, Nie Fugui is just one of them. We can''t compensate Nie Fugui and ignore the rest. If a case is to be dealt with, the rest must make up for it. We should make up for what we owe and let bygones be bygones. If you do it again, you will be punished. "


    There must be a lot of people who make white slips. Zhang Xiu knows that he can''t investigate one by one. It takes too much time and effort.


    It can only be a model.


    "I''ll do it


    Huang Zhong and Chen should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, make a notice to inform all the people in the city as soon as possible. At the end of tomorrow morning, outside the South Gate of Chang''an City, we will punish the officers and men who are tyrannical. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Yu immediately responded.


    All the generals kneeling in and out of the hall were crying with regret. How did they not expect that there would be so much trouble when they were owed a white bill.


    Zhang Xiu said: "take all your people away and put them in custody. When they go back, they will order the rest of the people who owe the white slips to return them today, otherwise they will be dealt with at the same time. "


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong and his three men should go down.


    They left with their generals. In the hall, there were only Li Ru, Jia Xu and the strong men who protected Li Ru.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Wenyou, sit down!"


    "General Xie!"


    Li Ru bowed his hand to thank him, then lifted up his robe and sat down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Li Ru and said, "Wenyou, you are going to enter Guanzhong. Everything is in vain. There is a lack of talents. Wen you has outstanding talent. Are you willing to work for the general? "

 Chapter 268

    When Li Ru heard Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, he didn''t answer immediately. Instead, he said, "General Zhang, when Li Ru was in Luoyang, I killed emperor Liu Bian, killed countless courtiers, ruined the code of ethics, and countless people in the world hated me to the bone."


    "Especially today''s emperor Liu Xie hates me to the bone."


    "Such as Fu Wan, Yang Biao and other loyal officials in the Han Dynasty, they would like to kill me."


    "Is general Zhang not afraid to be held accountable by the imperial court and the princes of the world to attack you? In the eyes of the world, I, Li Ru, am a person who is insidious and treacherous


    Li Ru said, "if you want to attract me, you have to shoulder my sins. Is general Zhang not afraid that I will do you harm?"


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to laugh.


    Li Ru''s face was calm, and his expression did not change at all. He asked faintly, "what does general Zhang laugh at?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "what does the emperor think today? What does it have to do with me? Why am I afraid of the accountability of the imperial court? As for the crusade of the world''s princes, who dares to crusade against me, Zhang Xiu? "


    "My strength of Zhang Xiu is not blown out, but shot out with one knife."


    "I''m not afraid of anyone."


    Zhang Xiu''s tone was high, and she said in a voice: "in the eyes of the world, that''s just the world''s view. I only believe in my own eyes and judgment. I have the ability to be more sure that you can make the best of your talents. "


    "This is my strength of Zhang Xiu."


    Strong words came from Zhang Xiu''s mouth.


    There was a lot of confidence in his face.


    With Zhang Xiu''s ability, he is not afraid of Li Ru''s bad things. Today''s Li Ru, though brilliant, is a street mouse. If Li Ru wants to show his ambition or revenge, he can only rely on Zhang Xiu.


    There is no room for Li Ru.


    As for the vassal''s Crusade, Zhang Xiu didn''t take the initiative to cause trouble, and no one could come to crusade.


    Yuan Shao was busy attacking Gongsun Zan.


    Cao Cao was busy attacking yuan Cao.


    Sun CE was busy pacifying the counties in Jiangdong.


    There are several princes in the world, and they all have their own affairs. Even if Zhang Xiu makes a quarrel in Guanzhong, as long as he doesn''t openly stand up and rebel against the imperial court, no one will care.


    When Li Ru saw Zhang Xiu''s posture, he was surprised. Zhang Xiu in front of him even gave him a feeling, like Dong Zhuo when he was young.


    At that time, Dong Zhuo had ambition, heart and responsibility.


    Although he is a warrior, he has a great strategy.


    Later, when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he was ambitious at the beginning, but his continuous failures and gentleness in the court made him frustrated and no longer listen to advice.


    Li Ru took a deep breath and asked again, "General Zhang wants to use me. What official position are you going to entrust me with?"


    This is the key.


    At least, Li Ru was the first counselor of Dong Zhuo, and he was in a high position. He can''t be a nobody when he works under Zhang Xiu''s command, and he won''t despise himself so much.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said slowly: "Wenyou''s official position will not be low. It will match your identity and ability. Before that, I had won Li Xi and Guo Si, and I had already sent people to show their contributions to the imperial court. "


    "In terms of Cao Cao, he will say something."


    "After taking Chang''an, the official system of Yuyang County, the political center under my command, will move to Chang''an as a whole."


    "There will be an adjustment for civil servants and military generals."


    "Wenyou will follow me, and the official positions will have to wait until then."


    Zhang Xiu said: "although there is no official appointment for the time being, please rest assured that if you are not satisfied with my subsequent arrangement, you can hang up your seal and leave. I believe Wenyou will not be disappointed. "


    Zhang Xiuzao, the official under her command, wanted to make a unified adjustment.


    Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi and others are not high officials. Even Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Pang Tong and others were subordinate officials when he was the governor of Nanyang, and the official position was too low.


    The general plan of adjustment, Zhang Xiu heart has plans.


    After the appointment of the imperial court, Zhang Xiu is ready to make a big adjustment.


    Li Ru is not disappointed to hear Zhang Xiu''s answer. Because Zhang Xiu can not perfunctory him, and he can feel that Zhang Xiu is sincere. Without any hesitation, Li Ru arched his hand and said, "Li Ru, meet the Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao: "Wen you don''t need to be polite."


    He took Li Ru and arranged his residence, but Li Ru said that he had a residence in Chang''an and did not need Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t insist.


    Zhang Xiu, Li Ru, Jia Xu and others discussed the follow-up arrangements before they dealt with their own affairs.


    ¡­¡­


    Changan City, lingyunlou.


    Today''s Lingyun building is still the same, and Shi a is also the shopkeeper. But now, Lingyun building is no longer a private industry. It is under the command of the royal guards and used to inquire about information. The identities of Wang Yue and Shi a have not been announced for the time being. After all, they are responsible for inquiring about information, and their identities should be kept secret.


    The notice arranged by Jia Xu was sent, and Shi a quickly posted it in the lobby of Lingyun building. When the drinkers came and went to see it, they were all surprised that Zhang Xiu wanted to punish the generals in the army.It''s a strange thing.


    The people are talking about it and looking forward to it.


    The news spread not only in lingyunlou, but also in other places.


    Many peddlers were overjoyed at the news.


    At last, someone is doing justice for them. If no one is doing justice, it''s really hard to do business. When the vendors were jubilant, the generals of the army came to settle the bill and settled all the money owed.


    Throughout the city of Chang''an, countless vendors were overjoyed.


    ¡­¡­


    The next day, early morning!


    Zhang Xiu got up early, had breakfast, and took people to the barracks. When Zhang Xiu arrived, all the troops were ready to set out at any time.


    In addition, there are also ordinary conventional forces in the army.


    The army gathered, as many as 20000 people.


    Today, the number of soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, and even the combat effectiveness, has been quite good.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the array of troops, and also looked at the soldiers who were detained with their heads down and their heads down. With a flick of big sleeves, she ordered: "let''s go!"


    The army set out, mighty, fast to the South Gate of Chang''an city.


    When all the soldiers were about to reach the position of the south gate, countless people rushed to the South Gate in the streets. There are a lot of onlookers, especially when dealing with the affairs of generals in the army.


    When we arrived at the gate of the south gate, there was a sea of people gathering.


    After Zhang Xiu arrived in Chang''an, got rid of the bandits and thieves, and stabilized the situation, people gradually increased, and Chang''an City became a little more lively.


    The temporary high platform is empty.


    This is for the army.


    The soldiers in the army are in position quickly, all in formation.


    With a wave of her hand, Zhang Xiu escorted all the generals to the broad platform. Dozens of people were escorted up, one by one kneeling on the ground, the scale is huge, very shocking.


    The distance is getting closer and closer.


    When approaching the end of time, Zhang Xiu strode onto the platform and looked around.


    Around, there are countless people gathered.


    Circle by circle of people, the surrounding blocked up, all crowded with people.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    The whole scene was just like a noisy market.


    Zhang Xiu raised a breath and said in a loud voice: "silence!"


    He raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet. Soon, all the people were silent. A pair of eyes, qishushu fell on Zhang Xiu, waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak.


    People are full of expectations for Zhang Xiu.


    They have heard of Zhang Xiu''s deeds and all admire her. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s public trial of Li Xi and Guo Si won the hearts of the people and made the people appreciate Zhang Xiu''s good deeds.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, we solved the Changan crisis.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, the family can be safe.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, there can be peaceful days.

 Chapter 269

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept around the common people, and said: "in recent days, there are soldiers in the army eating and drinking in the city, and they often don''t give money, they give a white note and pat their buttocks and leave."


    "Ben would have entered Guanzhong and repeatedly told the soldiers not to harass the common people and not to bully."


    "But there are still countless people on the line."


    With a sharp look on her face, Zhang Xiu pointed to dozens of soldiers kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice: "these dozens of people are verified to be true, and their behavior is the worst."


    "In front of all the soldiers and all the villagers."


    "I have something to say about Zhang Xiu."


    "Those who violate the law and discipline will not be tolerated, but will be severely punished. Don''t take chances and think you can get away with it. Once discovered, it is only possible to get a heavier punishment. "


    "Here in me, there is no turning a blind eye."


    "If there is injustice, people can go to the general''s office to plead for it. Ben will place a drum outside the general''s residence. If you have grievances, there will be a special person to deal with them by beating drums outside the general''s house. "


    Zhang Xiu''s tone was impassioned: "I was born and raised in Guanzhong. All my folks in Guanzhong will let you have a good ending in your old age, a strong and useful life, and a strong and useful life. All the people under my rule will be able to eat well and wear warm clothes, so as not to be hungry. "


    "Good!"


    Among the people, there was a loud cry.


    All the people in Guanzhong are excited.


    What the people care about is nothing more than their stomachs.


    Zhang Xiu guarantees the peace in Guanzhong, so that they can have enough food and clothing, which is the most basic guarantee.


    One after another, the cry resounded around the south gate.


    Countless people are very excited.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, and motioned the people to be quiet. When the people stopped talking, Zhang Xiucai continued: "now all the officers and men who committed crimes on the stage, regardless of their official positions and abilities, have settled all the white notes they owe, and have been fined for two months. Now, we will carry out the stick punishment, and each person will be responsible for 60 military sticks. "


    Cheers, again.


    The common people have always been indifferent to generals who eat free food. At the moment hear Zhang Xiu to heavy punishment, one by one excited, feel more common hatred, feel good fight.


    "Prepare for execution!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, under the order. With the order issued, all the soldiers kneeling on the ground in custody were all lying on the stage, while each soldier came forward with a baton.


    All in position.


    Every soldier who carries out the execution is a man of great stature.


    Zhang Xiu said: "execution!"


    The soldier in charge of execution swung his baton and beat it down.


    "Bang!"


    The sound of order, immediately sounded.


    The military staff fell on the buttocks and made a dull sound. Immediately after that, there was the muffled hum and scream of the soldiers. The dense sound made people feel numb.


    Pain!


    Even if you look far away, you can feel the pain.


    There is a difference between real fighting and fake fighting.


    At a glance, the common people can tell that this is a real punishment, not a bluff.


    "Bang! Bang


    The military staff, which is thicker than goose''s egg, swings up and down constantly, and there is a sound.


    At first, there were not many screams.


    It''s more of a grunt.


    Gradually, more and more people can''t bear it and begin to scream. Because when every staff falls, it is a real fight, not a virtual fight.


    The real stick punishment, not to mention the 60th army stick, even if the 20th army stick goes down, it can also crack people''s flesh and blood. Right now, just after hitting the 20th army staff, there was already blood splashing.


    "Twenty three!"


    "Twenty four!"


    ¡­¡­


    The soldiers in charge of shouting, shouting.


    As soon as the sound came out, the staff fell down, and there was another scream.


    Every soldier''s buttocks were smashed.


    More and more blood.


    The execution stick was stained with blood. When the baton is lifted, a little blood will be spilled, which makes the scene of the punishment more terrifying. By the end of the thirtieth day, some people will not be able to see it.


    It was bloody.


    Ordinary people can''t bear it.


    Seeing this, some people began to shout that Zhang Xiu should stop executing. After all, the thirty army staff had been severely punished.


    I''ve already vented my anger.


    That''s enough.


    There are a lot of people who appeal, but Zhang Xiu seems to have never heard of it. Since we have to stop punishing those who have committed crimes, we should let them go.


    Otherwise, it doesn''t work.


    When it comes to the 40th army staff, some soldiers become wilting. Because every stick falls, there is no hand left, so this kind of punishment will do great harm to the buttocks.


    "General, spare them. After all, it has been punished. "After all, the people are simple.


    Zhang Xiu''s stick is to blame all the officers and men, which is to give the people a bad breath. After the vent of this evil spirit, the people felt sorry when they saw the soldiers who had been blamed by the staff, and they didn''t want to continue.


    The voice of persuasion is getting louder and louder this time.


    There are more and more people.


    Zhang Xiu is still unmoved, just like a statue, standing quietly on the stage, looking at the beaten generals without saying a word.


    The punishment continues.


    The staff kept rising and then falling.


    Under the successive beatings, some people collapsed and fainted on the stage.


    It''s not one or two.


    It''s one after another.


    This scene shocked the people and shocked countless people. When people look at Zhang Xiu, their bright eyes are filled with awe and real trust.


    Zhang Xiu has a high prestige in Nanyang County, which makes people believe and trust her. It is through one thing after another that people are really willing to believe in him and support him.


    Now in Chang''an, Zhang Xiu has no foundation and can only accumulate constantly. At present, there are generals committing crimes. Zhang Xiu punishes the evils in the army and takes pride in the common people.


    In this way, the mentality of the people began to change, began to believe in Zhang Xiu, that Zhang Xiu is really care for the people.


    The execution continues.


    "Fifty seven!"


    The soldiers who are shouting are still shouting.


    "Fifty eight!"


    "Fifty nine!"


    When the soldier called 59, the whole person seemed to be relieved. He stood on the stage, looking at the buttocks of the generals, the blood flowing from the buttocks of many people, who had passed out, and his face was always taut.


    It''s scary.


    The sixty army staff is not ambiguous at all.


    Down to earth.


    The wounded soldiers will not be able to recover in a short time.


    "Sixty!"


    When the last count was called out, the soldier gave a long breath.


    It''s over!


    It''s finally over.


    For the soldiers who count, he is also under great pressure.


    The same is true of countless people.


    They were all relieved.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the bloody scene on the buttocks of the generals. She felt a touch of pain on her face, but she didn''t feel the slightest tenderness. Since we have violated the law of the army, we have to bear all the consequences.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the surrounding people and said again, "today''s execution is a promise to the villagers. But if there are soldiers or even officials in the army who have violated the people, you can go outside the general''s office to beat the drum and cry out grievances. "


    Long live General Zhang


    In the crowd, suddenly there were people shouting.


    Long live General Zhang


    Long live General Zhang


    ¡­¡­


    The cry is getting louder and louder.


    Countless people yelled. When they looked at Zhang Xiu, they were awed, but they also felt close. The reason is very simple. Zhang Xiu is willing to make decisions for them and support them.


    This is the most direct and simple.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the gathering of the hearts of the people and was relieved.


    This time, there are two plans to set up a model and severely punish the officers and men in the army.


    On the one hand, Zhang Xiu hopes to take this opportunity to curb unhealthy tendencies in the army, ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, and make the army still pure, rather than become a mess. On the other hand, it is to gather the hearts of the people, let the people in Guanzhong know Zhang Xiu''s acting style, and let the people believe Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t delay, and ordered Huang Zhong and others to dispatch soldiers to take all the wounded soldiers back for treatment.


    Such a serious injury must be treated.


    In particular, the general who has passed out must be treated as soon as possible to stabilize the injury and avoid it becoming serious. After these generals were taken away, Zhang Xiu admonished the generals in the army and ordered them to return to the city.


    The army set out for the barracks.


    Today, the generals in the army, even all the soldiers, see the scene of punishment, and all of them look solemn, with a sharp sword hanging on their heads.


    If you violate the law, you will be severely punished as long as you are prosecuted.


    One by one, dare not fool around again.

 Chapter 270

    When Zhang Xiu returned to the general''s house, she immediately arranged for soldiers to set up a big drum outside the general''s house.


    It''s something that will come later.


    Zhang Xiu moved directly to use.


    Then Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Li Ru and others came to see him. They didn''t take part in punishing the officers and soldiers, but they all heard about Zhang Xiu''s disposal and praised Zhang Xiu''s disposal.


    It is very good to unite the people and straighten the army by dealing with the officers and men who violate the law and discipline in the army.


    With a smile on his face, Li Ru said slowly: "the way that the LORD set up a drum outside the general''s house to let the people plead for injustice is exquisite. I have a suggestion for such a clever method. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what suggestion?"


    Li Ru said: "whenever the Lord''s jurisdiction, local county magistrate should set up big drum, so that the people can beat the drum to complain. As long as the drum is sounded and the sound is transmitted to the county government, the county magistrate must rise to the court for questioning. Only in this way can people be vindicated. "


    "Yes, it should be."


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, her face showed approval.


    Drumming is common in later generations.


    Zhang Xiu thought of setting up a drum in the general''s house, but did not think of extending it. Li Ru is not only good at strategy, but also very good at governing the country.


    Zhang Xiu immediately adopted Li Ru''s suggestion and said, "Wenyou''s suggestion is good. Wenhe should coordinate with all parties and assist Wenyou to issue an order as soon as possible. In all the areas under my rule, Dagu must be placed outside the prefectures and prefectures, so that the people can be vindicated."


    "Here it is


    Qi Qi and Li ruxu should be the next.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "Wenhe, have some scholars come to work recently?"


    "Yes!"


    Jia Yu replied: "please rest assured, if you come to work for a taxi, as long as you pass the screening, you will stay in your humble position. Then you can make suggestions according to your talents and submit them to the Lord for approval. It''s just that there are not many people who have been selected for the time being. They are placed in the post house for the time being, and then they are handed over to the Lord in batches. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Jia Xu''s treatment.


    Jia Xu is very good at handling things without any leakage.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the recruitment of talents should not be relaxed. In many places of Jingzhao and youfufeng, there is a lack of grassroots officials, even county magistrate and county magistrate. As soon as possible, we will decide on the candidates for the county magistrate of each county and let them go to various places to take up their posts. "


    "I''ll do it


    Jia Xu replied again.


    Zhang Xiu and the three discussed the follow-up actions, and they all agreed that at present, we should first stabilize the situation of Jing Zhaoyin and you Fufeng, and then consider sending troops.


    What''s more, the orthodox court headed by Cao Cao has not yet issued the appointment of Zhang Xiu.


    This is something to wait for.


    Jia Xu once again said, "Lord, there is one more thing to deal with."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Jia Xu replied: "today, dozens of generals who have been severely punished have been beaten to death. After treatment, they must have come to their senses. "


    "These people should be punished for their crimes!"


    "But it must also be appeased."


    "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. The Lord punished them with his own hand, which made them feel awed and dare not make any mistakes. However, we must also be gentle and pacify the officers and men like the spring breeze and the rain, so that they can return to their hearts. "


    Jia Xu said: "I suggest that the Lord should go to the barracks to appease the wounded general."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and praised: "those who know me are Wenhe! My original intention was to have a military camp. But not now. It''s not too late in the evening. "


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    After discussing the matter, Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong all got up to leave and went to deal with the matter separately.


    Zhang Xiu went back to her study to deal with the government affairs presented to her.


    In the evening, after having dinner, Zhang Xiu left the general''s residence with his bodyguard Deng Zhan and went to the barracks. After arriving at the barracks, he went to see Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning and talked about visiting the wounded general.


    Through the three people, we learned about the places where the wounded generals lived, so that we could go there in person.


    Huang Zhong and others did not accompany.


    When Zhang Xiu takes Deng Zhan to visit the soldiers, she first pacifies them. Then she says that the injured soldiers should not violate the law and discipline of the army. Finally, she says that if they are not dealt with, the army will collapse and even affect the whole army.


    Once the call came down, the injured general was very angry, but he felt very guilty.


    I feel sorry for Zhang Xiu''s cultivation.


    Zhang Xiu came down and visited every wounded general, which made the generals no longer resentful. On the contrary, it was incomparable remorse, which made countless people loyal to him.


    In the early hours of the morning, Zhang Xiu finished her visit and dealt with the matter.


    Zhang Xiu did not stay in the army.


    He took Deng Zhan out of the barracks and went straight back to the general''s residence to have a rest. Now that Zhang Xiu doesn''t attack the rest of the country, everything is on the right track, but things are relaxed, waiting for the public trial.¡­¡­


    Xu Du, Sikong mansion.


    Now, Cao Cao is actively preparing to attack Yuan Shu.


    Cao Cao served the emperor to order the princes. He had the emperor Liu Xie in his hand. He was orthodox.


    This is not provocative.


    Yuan Shu declared himself Emperor in Shouchun and betrayed the Great Han Dynasty. No matter what, Cao Cao had to launch a crusade. If Cao Cao didn''t attack Yuan Shu and let it go, other vassals in the world would follow suit one after another, which would lead to the disappearance of the only remaining authority of the Han Dynasty.


    This is not allowed by Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao had to crusade, and he had to win. Therefore, during this period, Cao Cao''s grain, equipment, and soldiers were raising money at a high speed.


    However, it is not easy for Cao Cao now, because the emperor is growing up, unwilling to be a mascot, and also wants to be in power. The people loyal to the emperor''s family in the court also kept climbing up, intending to suppress him.


    Last time, Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu failed in the battle. After returning to Xudu, they managed to stabilize the situation. Fortunately, the upper and lower levels of the court agreed on this crusade against Yuan Shu.


    There is no objection.


    Because of not dealing with Yuan Shu, the Han Dynasty''s authority was swept away, and the consequences were unimaginable.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    There was a knock on the door. Outside Cao Cao''s room, an attendant reported: "Sikong, commander Guo, please see me."


    "Please


    Cao Cao gave an order.


    After a while, a sound of footsteps came, but Guo Jia pushed the door in. Guo Jia was dressed in a black robe, her hair was slightly scattered, and her beard was quite casual.


    He entered the room, saluted Cao Cao, and sat down at will.


    Seeing this, Cao Cao didn''t like it. He asked with a smile, "what''s the matter with filial piety?"


    Guo Jia replied: "Lord, our spies in Guanzhong have sent back news. Zhang Xiu won Li Xi and Guo Si, and controlled Jingzhao and youfufeng. "


    Cao Cao frowned.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is expanding too fast.


    Cao Cao wanted to enter Guanzhong first. The problem was that he sent someone to contact Duan Wen, but Duan Wen didn''t give him permission. He only received benefits, but he didn''t mention the matter of obedience for the time being.


    So that Cao Cao could not enter Guanzhong.


    Now Cao and Duan Cao have no time to deal with things.


    Guo Jia continued: "in addition, Zhang Xiu sent people to ask for help."


    Cao Cao snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu is a good official. The last time he killed a Hun, he asked for credit and won the posts of Nanyang Prefecture and Zhennan general. Now I have to ask for an official. I''m as slippery as an old fox. "


    Guo Jia nodded his head and said, "my Lord is wise. Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning. It''s really hard to deal with."


    "In particular, Zhang Xiu won Guo Si and Li Yi, and made great contributions to the imperial court. In addition, today''s emperor deeply hates Li and Guo Si, and wants to kill them and then be quick. "


    "After hearing the news, the emperor will praise Zhang Xiu even more, and will certainly reward her."


    "This time, we can only reward Zhang Xiu."


    Guo Jia continued: "especially after Zhang Xiu''s strength has expanded again, our border borders with Nanyang County where Zhang Xiu is located. If Zhang Xiu''s request for merit is rejected, regardless of Zhang Xiu''s request for merit, it is very likely that Zhang Xiu will send troops to the border. "


    "Zhang Xiu has a strong sense of strategy, a view of the overall situation, and knows how to distinguish the general situation."


    "He must know that we are going to attack Yuan Shu, so he asked for help at this time. The purpose of Zhang Xiu is to let the Lord give him an official position in order to appease him. "


    Guo Jia gives his analysis.


    This is also true, Jia Xu put forward to let Zhang Xiu on the table, is to coerce Cao Cao to agree.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Cao Cao slapped him on the desk and was quite angry.


    Zhang Xiu is too cunning.


    After Cao Cao was angry, he soon regained his peace and asked, "fengxiao, what official position should you give him?"


    Cao Cao knew very well that he could not refuse.


    He must hold Zhang Xiu steady.


    Guo Jia thought about it and replied, "after Zhang Xiu entered Guanzhong, her purpose was to capture Guanzhong. In order to stabilize Zhang Xiu, he can only be appointed as the commander of Sili. In particular, those who came to ask for merit also beat a drum to remind them that Zhang Xiu intended to be a captain of Sili school. If she refuses, Zhang Xiu may be dissatisfied. Instead of this, it''s better to reach the designated position at one time and completely stabilize Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao has a toothache.


    When he just received the emperor from Xuchang, he was also appointed as the commander of Sili school by the emperor.


    Later, he was appointed as Sikong.


    Sili Xiaowei is an extremely important official post, responsible for supervising the capital and local supervisors. Although the chief duty of the Sili Xiaowei was to take charge of the seven prefectures of Jingzhao, Zuo Fengyi, youfufeng, Hedong, Henan, Hanoi and Hongnong, he was the governor of the seven prefectures.


    But in addition, there are also accusations of supervising local officials, which have great power.


    This is what Cao Cao is not willing to give.But Cao Cao was helpless. He had too many constraints.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, depressed his heart and said: "Zhang Xiu wants the captain of Sili school, just give him. In addition, he should be given the right to open a government. Now we have fed Zhang Xiu. When we have won Yuan Shu and stabilized the situation in Jianghuai and Xuzhou, we will transfer our forces and go all out to fight Zhang Xiu. Now, he''s proud for a while


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Guo Jia arched his hand to answer.


    He is very clear about the current situation of Cao Cao. If Cao Cao wants to go all out to attack Yuan Shu and solve the threat of Yuan Shu, he can only stabilize Zhang Xiu, but can''t divide his forces to fight against Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 271

    The night was deep, and Chang''an was silent.


    In prison, in a cell.


    Burning torches in the dark and cold corridor. The yellow light flickered, dispelling the darkness. Rao is so, the cell is still gloomy, with silence and cold.


    Li Xi and Guo Si were detained here face to face.


    Li Yi is in the cell on the left and Guo Si is in the cell on the right. At the moment, both Li Xi and Guo Si are much thinner, their eyes are sunken, and there is helplessness and despair in their eyes.


    They were held in prison, out of sight, waiting to die. In this case, they can only use stone to depict the days on the wall.


    Li Jian knew that the time when he was tried by the public was getting closer and closer.


    Tomorrow is the final public trial.


    Li is afraid of public trial.


    He was afraid of the people.


    When he was in power, he never paid attention to the life and death of the common people, which led to the destruction of countless families in Guanzhong. Once put on trial, he can expect the madness of the people and feel numb when he thinks about it.


    Sitting in the corner of the wall and looking at the words engraved on the wall, Li Jian saw that the final countdown had come. He suddenly sat up, jumped to the door of the cell, patted the door of the cell, and roared: "Guo Si, Guo ADO!"


    Guo Si''s nickname, Guo duo, was also called Guo ADO by Li.


    Guo Si raised his head and looked at him. He said powerlessly, "what''s the matter?"


    Li Zhen''s eyes were very eager and asked, "tomorrow is the time for execution. It''s a time of life and death. Are you really willing to be killed? "


    Guo Si said: "I''m not willing. What can I do? Can you help me? "


    Li Zhen said: "I save you. Now even I am in trouble. I can''t help myself, let alone save you. Now, it''s up to you. Otherwise, we''ll all die. "


    Guo Si laughed, but said: "depend on me, I was caught by Zhang Xiu. The grain, money and other armor were all taken away. What else can I do? You''ve always been better than me. You can''t help it. What can I do


    "You have a way."


    Li Ying made up his mind to answer.


    Guo Si was so angry that he laughed and said, "what can I do?"


    "You have money!" Li said


    "Fart!"


    Guo Si said: "as I said just now, all the food, money and so on have been taken. Now, I have nothing. Where did I get the money? "


    Li Qian shook his head and said, "You Guo Si are afraid of your wife. In the Xiliang army, it''s a well-known thing. Your money in the army. It''s money in the army. Even if you''ve been ransacked, there must be money in your house in Chang''an city. Even if there is not much money hidden, there must be. I''m sure of that, because I know you


    Guo Si was silent.


    Li did know him.


    When he was in Chang''an, he had a mansion in Chang''an, and his wife was a tiger, which made Guo Si afraid. He''s very tight on all his expenses, so he''s really hiding some private money.


    Although not much, there are nearly 100 taels of gold.


    After Guo Si was arrested, he didn''t think about it at all, because it was useless. He couldn''t let Zhang Xiu not kill him. Guo Si took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and asked, "even if we have money, what can we do to get out?"


    "How much money do you have?" Li asked


    Guo Si said: "hundred taels of gold!"


    "Enough!"


    There was a sharp light in Li''s eyes, and he said: "Guo Addo, let''s use this hundred taels of gold to lure the prison guards to let us go. This is the last chance, once missed, you and I can''t survive


    Guo Si said, "are you sure you can do it?"


    "Always try."


    Li''s eyes were full of expectation.


    He didn''t know whether he could do it or not. If he didn''t try, he would not like to die.


    Guo Si said: "you operate it."


    Standing in the cell, Li Zhen summoned up all his strength, beating the wooden door of the cell, shaking the chain and shouting: "come on, come on."


    He had been beaten all over before.


    It''s just a period of time to recover. He slapped the wooden door of the cell and pulled the wound on his body. Rao is so, Li is still gritting his teeth, a desperate look.


    After a while, the jailer came.


    Li Jian saw the jailer and said in a loud voice: "inform the prison leader Sun Youcai and let him come. I want him to tell Zhang Xiu something important."


    The jailer did not dare to disobey.


    After all, it involves Zhang Xiu.


    The gaoler went back to inform him that in a short time, the prison head who was responsible for guarding Li and Guo Si came in.


    The head of the prison is sun Youcai, in his early 40s. Today, he is already white at the temples, and his back is bent. When sun Youcai was a child, he came from a poor family.He''s been around since he was a kid. Just like this, he was among the Rangers in Guanzhong and made some famous achievements. Later, he was injured and broke down badly, so he found a relationship to spend time in the cell and take care of the cell.


    Sun Youcai is a man of righteousness and righteousness.


    Although he is not in good health, he has some face among the Rangers of Chang''an generation. Standing in front of the cell door with his back bent, he looked at Guo Si and Li He in his eyes with a look of disdain.


    He hated Li Xi and Guo Si.


    These two people have harmed countless people.


    It''s the one to kill.


    Sun Youcai said, "what can I do for you, Li Yu? Tomorrow is the time for the public trial of you. The time of your death is coming. Please be honest with me and do not blame sun Youcai for his ruthlessness. "


    His cheek twitched.


    A sun Youcai dare to be arrogant in front of him.


    Once upon a time, even the emperor Liu Xie, in front of him, he was also humble and did not dare to look him in the eye.


    Li Zhen took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, put a smile on his face and said, "Sun Youcai, I have a business to do with you. It depends on whether you dare."


    Sun Youcai said, "what kind of business?"


    Li said: "I hope you find two people, one is similar to my figure, the other is similar to Guo Si''s. Then, you set fire to the cell again and switch Guo Si and me out. "


    "No way!"


    Sun Youcai said, "don''t be paranoid."


    With hope in his heart, Li Yi hurriedly said, "don''t worry, don''t hurry to refuse. As long as you let us out, we''ll give you 100 taels of gold when it''s done. It''s 100 taels of real gold. "


    "With a hundred taels of gold, where can''t you go


    "With a hundred taels of gold, if you marry and concubine, it''s enough to waste."


    "It''s a one shot deal."


    Li Yi constantly bewitched: "as long as you agree, I believe it is not difficult to switch us out by your means. The completion of this big deal is enough to make you worry about food and clothing for a lifetime. Do you want your parents to be poor all their lives; do you want your son to be poor all his life; do you want to be inferior all the time? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When sun Youcai heard this, he burst out laughing.


    Laughter, but also disdain.


    Sun Youcai stares at Li Yi and Guo Si and says with a loud voice, "I''m afraid to make my parents miserable, my son poor all his life, and I''m afraid that I''ve always been inferior."


    "However, I am more afraid that when I lie on my bed in the dead of night, I will dream of countless wronged souls coming to me to collect debts."


    "You two scoundrels have killed countless people and led to the destruction of countless families. If you don''t die, how can the thousands of people die in peace? "


    "Not to mention 100 taels of gold, even if it''s 10000 taels of gold, my grandson Youcai will not let you go."


    Sun Youcai raised his head and said, "although I''m bent, I have a good conscience and a clear conscience. I''ve been guilty all my life for taking your money. I don''t dare to speak loudly or stand up straight. "


    "Well said!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from the aisle.


    But Zhang Xiu''s voice came.


    As soon as sun Youcai heard it, he looked back and knelt down with a plop. He saluted and said, "I''ve met General Zhang


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu patted sun Youcai on the shoulder and praised him: "not bad, not bad. Although you are just an old man in prison, you are proud. "


    "General, it''s a low post."


    When sun Youcai heard Zhang Xiu''s praise, he felt comfortable and excited. He was born as a Ranger. He was good at talking and saving face. He felt that he was praised by Zhang Xiu. Once he said this, he had a lot of face.

 Chapter 272

    At this moment, his heart sank completely. He originally planned to escape from the prison with the help of sun Youcai, and then tried to leave Chang''an. Unexpectedly, sun Youcai refused.


    Even Zhang Xiu came.


    When Zhang Xiu comes, he has no chance to leave. The last road, completely cut off.


    Li Xun was angry and tried to roar: "Zhang Xiu, you white eyed wolf. Once upon a time, I took care of you. But now you want to kill me. You are ungrateful. You have to die. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "take care of me?"


    "In the Xiliang army, you, Li, have always wanted to eat cards, to grab money, and to be an Iron Rooster. You only care about the interests in your hands. How ever did you care for me? "


    "You said I was ungrateful."


    "When have you ever been kind to me?"


    "The only time my uncle asked you was when you refused."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s said that people are going to die, and their words are good. Li, tomorrow is the time for public trial. At this time, your heart is still unchanged, no compassion, no repentance. You, damn it


    Sen Leng''s intention of killing Zhang Xiu is full of air.


    "Repentance?"


    Li Bi disdained to say: "why should I repent? I just regret that I didn''t kill you."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head.


    This is not repentance.


    Sun Youcai stood beside Zhang Xiu and said, "general, just now Li Zhen seduced me and told me to find someone who was similar to them to set fire to switch, with the intention of confusing the real with the fake. They also said they would give me 100 taels of gold, which means that they have money to hide. Do you want to be put on trial? "


    "Trial!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a concise answer.


    Li''s face changed greatly.


    But he was promoted by Zhang Xiu for several times. His ass was opened by Zhang Xiu, and even his leg bones were discounted. Zhang Xiu''s interrogator, no matter what the evidence is, will fight again.


    Li Jian met Zhang Xiu. He was a scholar. He couldn''t explain why. He didn''t even have any confidence.


    Li Ying did not dare to fight Zhang Xiu. He continued: "General Zhang, it''s not me. It''s not me who has money. All my money has been hollowed out by you. It''s Guo Si. He still has 100 taels of gold in Chang''an. "


    Brush!


    Guo''s face changed greatly.


    When he looked at Li He, his eyes were full of hatred.


    Damn Li, give him up.


    As for money, Guo did not think it was of any use. Because Zhang Xiu came, his life was cut off, only to be killed. It doesn''t matter who gets the hidden money.


    The key point is that Li Gan confessed him again and took him as a scapegoat.


    This is the most shameless of Li.


    Guo Si knew the horror of Zhang Xiu, and without any hesitation, he said: "General Zhang, I said, I said, this hundred taels of gold is in the mansion where I used to live in Chang''an city. After entering the hall, there is a dark grid under the third bluestone, in which there is a brocade box with 100 taels of gold. "


    Li Xi smell speech, disdain of saw Guo si one eye.


    It''s spineless.


    Guo Si noticed Li''s expression and said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, it''s not me who wants to escape, it''s Li. He''s not reconciled. What he wants to escape from prison is his encouragement. "


    Li''s expression froze.


    Damn Guo Si.


    Zhang Xiu saw two people tearing down each other, sneer, these two people are dog bite dog a mouth hair. He looked at Sun Youcai and said, "Sun Youcai, do you know the mansion where Guo Si once lived?"


    "I know!"


    Sun Youcai nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "is there anyone living in Guo Si''s residence now?"


    Sun Youcai said, "no!"


    As a matter of fact, although a lot of people have come out of Chang''an, most of them haven''t come yet, so the mansions and residences in the city, especially those with good location and luxury, are empty, and no one dares to go. What''s more, Chang''an had no owners before, and there were many wars, so no one dared to come.


    Zhang Xiu took Chang''an, which was confiscated.


    No one to live in, all take over by Zhang Xiu.


    Hearing sun Youcai''s words, Zhang Xiu said, "go to Guo Si''s mansion and get the brocade box."


    "Yes


    Sun Youxia immediately left.


    Although his back was bent and his body was comfortable, his movements were very flexible. He soon disappeared in the corridor, left his cell and quickly went to Guo Si''s residence.


    Zhang Xiu stood with a negative hand, looking at Li Yu, and said, "Li Yu, tomorrow is the day of public trial. What else do you want to say before you die? "


    Li Yu said angrily: "Zhang Xiu, you have to die well. You are good at killing people of the Xiliang army. In the end, you must die well. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s hopeless!"


    Zhang Xiu looks down on Li He.Li Jian is the most important general of Dong Zhuo. He has mastered the most elite flying bear army under Dong Zhuo''s command, and the army has strong combat effectiveness. After Dong Zhuo''s death, Wang Yun came to power. Li Yu''s first thought was to disband the army and flee back to Xiliang.


    If it had not been for Jia Xu''s advice, Li could not have attacked Chang''an.


    After Li Qian entered Chang''an, forced Wang Yun to kill him and expelled Lu Bu, he did not keep a low profile. He still went his own way, arrogant and unscrupulous.


    As a matter of fact, even if Dong Zhuo is gone, Li''s elite will be enough to win over all the vassals in the world, and be able to take the lead. But Li''s insistence on destroying the good situation is the most incompetent of Li''s.


    If you succeed, you will be rampant!


    Zhang Xiu turned to Guo Si and said, "Guo Si, what about you?"


    Guo Si was silent, his expression was a little stiff, and his eyes were even more erratic. All of a sudden, he sneered twice and said, "what else can I say? It''s nothing more than killing people and paying debts. It doesn''t matter if you kill someone and get a public trial. Nothing but death. Zhang Xiu, don''t be complacent. We''ve learned from the past. Maybe you''ll follow suit soon. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can''t see this day."


    Guo Si changed his words and said again, "I have only one request."


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu said.


    Although Guo Si and Li Yi should be killed, Zhang Xiu can also satisfy the last request of those who should be killed, as long as it is not excessive.


    Guo Si said, "after my death, my bones will be sent back to my hometown in Xiliang for burial."


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    For such a problem, Zhang Xiu is not willing to do more difficult.


    Guo Si continued: "my family, can you give them a way to live?" After Guo Si was captured, his family members were all controlled, and none of them escaped.


    Zhang Xiu heard the speech and shook her head.


    Guo Si''s family also had accomplices in his evil deeds.


    What''s more, cutting grass without removing roots will bring endless troubles. Zhang Xiu is not a bad person. She can''t bury her future troubles. He pretended to be a good man here today, but Guo Si''s descendants and relatives may not be in favor of him.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s real idea.


    Zhang Xiu is not a bad person.


    He knows better that in this troubled world, bad people can only die in the front. He would rather be a villain, a villain who can eliminate the troubled times and return the whole world to heaven and earth.


    "Alas..."


    Guo Si sighed and sat down in the corner.


    His face was full of despair.


    Zhang Xiu turned and left, no longer looking at Li Xi and Guo Si. At the moment, both of them were sitting in the corner of the cell, their faces full of despair.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting in her cell.


    When sun Youcai came back with the brocade box, he saw that the seal was still intact. He immediately opened the seal, looked at the golden gold in his eyes, took out a golden cake, handed it to sun Youcai, and said: "you sun Youcai, have the bottom line and stick to the temptation, this is a reward for you."


    "General Xie!"


    Sun Youcai took the cake with shaking hands.


    He was also a spender.


    I don''t care much about golden cakes.


    What sun Youcai cares about is Zhang Xiu''s praise and recognition of him. This is what sun Youcai, a knight errant, values most.


    Zhang Xiu asked Deng Zhan to put away the brocade box and then turned to leave.


    Sun Youcai put away the golden cake, immediately called a group of prison guards who were responsible for guarding the prison, publicized Zhang Xiu''s attention to the prison, let everyone not relax, and then announced that he would invite everyone to eat meat and drink.


    You can''t eat alone.


    This is sun Youcai''s way of dealing with the world, which can form a group with the people below.

 Chapter 273

    The next day, early in the morning.


    After getting up early in the morning, Zhang Xiu did morning exercises in the yard. Although it is approaching early summer and the weather is getting hot, Zhang Xiu is still practicing martial arts.


    When he practiced martial arts, he was very attentive. Even when he heard the noise, he never stopped.


    After the morning exercise, Zhang Xiucai looked at Deng Zhan, who didn''t know when he was coming, and asked, "Deng Zhan, what happened? Soon after my morning exercise, there were gongs and drums beating around here?"


    Deng Zhan said: "report back to the general, these gongs and drums are played by the people in the city. When I came here, I saw many people taking to the streets, beating gongs and drums, celebrating the public trial of Li Xi and Guo Si. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said with emotion: "the loss of people''s heart is just like this."


    After having breakfast with Deng Zhan, he went straight to the prison and arrived at the gate of the prison. Countless people have arrived around to watch Li Yi and Guo Si being escorted out.


    "Get out of the way. Let general Zhang in."


    In the crowd, someone found Zhang Xiu.


    So shout.


    After the shouting came out, many people found Zhang Xiu and quickly gave way.


    Zhang Xiu bows her hand to thank her and enters the prison.


    Sun Youcai quickly welcomed him and said, "general, everything is ready. No matter Li Xi or Guo Si, they have been placed in the prison car and can start at any time. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave the order.


    After the order was given, soldiers led horses and pulled out of the prison with the prison car loaded with Li and Guo Si. As soon as the van went out, soldiers came forward again to protect the two sides of the van to ensure that no one robbed the prisoners.


    "Wheel! The wheels


    The wheels turned and the carriage moved slowly forward.


    Zhang Xiu rode behind and went to the south gate.


    In the prison car, Li was sitting paralyzed. He looked up and saw that people were watching.


    "Dog thief!"


    Suddenly, a shout came from the people.


    Then an egg flew out of the crowd and hit Li He''s forehead. Fear of fragmentation, egg white and yolk overflow out, making Li''s face sticky.


    The impact of the egg didn''t hurt much, but in front of countless people, he was thrown an egg. Li Yu was very angry in his heart. He opened his mouth and was ready to scold him back.


    But the next moment, Li Jian just opened his mouth and immediately closed it. He raised his hands and protected his forehead.


    His face was full of panic.


    Because there were countless people throwing eggs, vegetables, straw sandals and other miscellaneous items, all of which were thrown at him by a swarm of bees, crash like rain, bang bang on the prison car.


    Fortunately, the prison car has a guardrail, blocking part of the thrown objects.


    The rest, such as eggs, straw sandals and so on, kept flying into the prison car and hitting Li Zhen.


    In a flash, Li was dirty all over.


    The eggs are broken and sticky.


    The leaves of vegetables are flying around, and the whole person is in a mess.


    Guo Si is the same as Li He. He is also taken care of by the people. The heavy rain is like eggs and other things. Guo Si can only protect his head with his hands, then bow his back and do his best to protect himself.


    At this moment, Guo Si was sad.


    He has always been conceited and used to be superior, but now when he was reduced to being tried, he suddenly found that he was so hated.


    Guo Si''s heart is even more lonely.


    The two carriages were constantly taken care of, and Zhang Xiu was only eight steps away from the carriage. But in front of Zhang Xiu, there was no vegetable leaves and other things falling, and she was still walking forward.


    As the carriage drove slowly along the road, the cries came one after another. Countless people called out to kill Li Xi and Guo Si, and they even scolded Li Xi and Guo Si.


    Li Xi and Guo Si spent several years in Guanzhong, which completely withered Guanzhong.


    Countless families were destroyed.


    Countless people are separated.


    Countless people died miserably.


    It can be said that the people in Guanzhong suffered a lot. That''s why Li Xi and Guo Si were escorted out, which caused such indignation among the people. All the way to drink abuse, all the way to throw eggs and so on, Li Xi and Guo Si thoroughly dirty, extremely embarrassed.


    Li Jian from the beginning of anger, to gradually helpless and despair, and finally became numb.


    In his heart, he doubted himself.


    Is he really that hateful?


    When the carriage arrived outside the south gate, Li Yu still had no clear answer, but he was numb.


    Soldiers had been stationed around the execution ground.


    After the carriage stopped, the soldiers escorted Li Xi and Guo Si out of the prison car and then pulled them to the stage.


    On the stage, two wooden piles were set up.


    Each stake is one foot high.After Li Xi and Guo Si were pulled to the stage, they were not asked to kneel on the ground, but were tied to the stake.


    This situation, let Li Shi is a Leng.


    Li Zhen thought that he was going to chop his head. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Zhang Xiu, you tied us to the stake. What are you going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "since it''s a public trial, let the people punish you. I''m not going to kill you. In this public trial, the people will judge your sentence. "


    Brush!


    The look on Li Jian''s face changed a lot.


    Let the people be punished.


    It''s like letting the people do it.


    Under such circumstances, it is extremely painful, because death is not temporary, and it will not happen in a short time.


    Gudong!


    Li Bi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    One side of Guo Si heard, cheek also smoked, way: "Zhang Xiu, is a hero, then give me a happy."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m not a hero!"


    Guo Si gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are the devil."


    Zhang Xiu said, "yes. I am the devil, the devil of revenge, and the devil of justice for the people. To deal with you villains, we must be more vicious than you. I have a clear conscience about sitting down. What if it''s vicious? "


    Guo Si was suddenly dumb.


    At this time, he found that he really didn''t know Guo Si. Once Zhang Xiu, can''t be like this. Today''s Zhang Xiu is quite different.


    "Hoo


    Guo Si took a long breath and closed his eyes.


    This is the end of the matter. It''s no use saying more.


    We have to wait to die.


    Li Xi clenched his fist and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel. I''m waiting for you underground. One day, you will follow me. You must have no good result. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered, and her face was full of disdain.


    Is this a threat?


    Does that work?


    It''s just the benefit of words on the verge of death.


    Zhang Xiu turned to face all the people. Looking at the people around him, he saw the anger on every cheek, the joy and expectation, and said in a loud voice: "silence!"


    Around, soon quiet down.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    There was only breathing.


    There''s no extra sound.


    This time, more people came than the generals in the army.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu had already informed the whole Guanzhong area that all the people in Guanzhong area wanted to bring Li Xi and Guo Si to trial.


    That''s what countless people know.


    It''s not only Chang''an, but also Jingzhao, youfufeng, Hongnong, Hedong and Hanoi.


    Countless people gathered here.


    Zhang Xiu roughly estimated that there were at least 30000 or 40000 people who came here. Because looking out from the center of the execution ground, you can''t see the edge, just see the black crowd here.


    There are too many people coming.


    There are innumerable people who want Li Xi and Guo Si to die, hoping to kill them.

 Chapter 274

    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice, "before that, we would have issued a notice for the public trial of Li Xi and Guo Si. It''s a day of trust from the villagers. "


    "Some of your relatives died at the hands of Li Xi and Guo Si."


    "Some of your relatives were robbed and occupied by Li Xi and Guo Si."


    "Some of you were forced to leave your hometown by Li Xi and Guo Si."


    "Countless people are trapped in the abyss because of Li Xi and Guo Si. The accusations of Li Xi and Guo Si are too numerous to be recorded and counted. There is no need to say more about their charges, and there is no need to repeat them. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "today''s public trial of Li Shi and Guo Si, the earliest plan to deal with them is to kill them. But after thinking about it, he decided not to participate in it or deal with them. It''s up to you to deal with Li Shi. What to do with these two people, do it yourself. "


    Brush!


    Li Xi and Guo Si''s face changed greatly.


    Both of them saw the people around them, and saw the eyes of the people who chose to bite each other.


    If they were given birth, they would surely be handed over to the people.


    Li Xi and Guo Si couldn''t bear it.


    The two were tied to the stake, their bodies could not help shaking, and their faces were even more afraid.


    Both of them were afraid.


    But they have no way to stop, because in today''s situation, they are fish on the chopping board, and they don''t even have a chance to struggle.


    When the people heard this, they were elated.


    They do want to kill their enemies.


    People cheered, but also chanted the name of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down again to signal the people to be quiet. After all the people stopped talking, Zhang Xiu announced the rules for the people to execute the sentence. Only one hundred people could come up each time. It''s impossible to have more. Otherwise, there will be no room for so many people on the stage, and the situation will easily get out of control.


    Zhang Xiu withdrew from the high platform and let the soldiers let the people go to the stage.


    One hundred of the most advanced people took the lead on the stage, and when they came to Li Xi and Guo Si, they were beaten and kicked.


    As their fists fell, Li Xi and Guo Si kept screaming.


    One by one, the common people who vent their inner grievances are reluctant to leave after venting. After this wave of people left, another wave of people ascended the stage.


    The people did not use weapons, and Li Xi and Guo Si could not bear to fight.


    It wasn''t long. They both had internal bleeding.


    People have been dizzy, all over the body there is no place not injured, cheek is black and blue. Li and Guo''s eyeballs became turbid, and even their eyeballs were seriously injured, and their vision became blurred.


    At the moment, Li Jian is dizzy.


    He kept trying to avoid it.


    But no matter how he evades, he can''t escape. Especially when he is beaten, he has to bear the people''s abuse.


    Under the constant beating, Li Jian''s breath gradually sank.


    The consciousness in the brain gradually disappears.


    Countless people beat, even if Li is an iron man, it is unbearable. When the last punch fell, it hit Li He. Li He only left one breath to fall, and the whole person lost a little breath.


    As soon as his head tilted, his body softened.


    Shortly after Li''s death, Guo Si was also killed by the angry people.


    However, the people did not stop.


    In a circular way, people constantly come forward to fight and vent their grievances.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this scene, she also saw Li Xi and Guo Si who had lost their breath. At this moment, what Zhang Xiu thinks of is not how to pity Li Xi and Guo Si, but how to remember this scene and draw lessons from it.


    He didn''t think much about the way Li Xi and Guo Si died. Born in troubled times, especially as a warlord in the world, you have to be ready to be killed.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stop the common people. Although she paid attention to the death, because of Li Xi and Guo Si, countless families in Guanzhong were killed, and countless people were killed because of Li Xi and Guo Si. This is a blood debt owed by Li Xi and Guo Si.


    Blood debt should be paid by blood.


    Li Xi and Guo Si deserve this.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the general in charge and tells him to look at the scene and take charge of the final corpse collection, then turns around and leaves.


    After returning to the general''s office, Zhang Xiu began to deal with government affairs.


    Nowadays, Zhang Xiu deals most with the collection of many residential land titles. Before Zhang Xiu arrived in Chang''an, Chang''an was like an empty city, with few people, or people hiding.


    In particular, the houses of many ministers of the central government are idle, and no one is there.


    This is all to be dealt with.


    Fortunately, Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong could share the burden, so that Zhang Xiu would not be in a hurry.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the study.


    A soldier followed him and said, "general, the emperor''s envoy has arrived in the imperial court. The emperor''s will has arrived.""Please go to the hall!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered, and he also quickly got up, said: "go, with me to meet the angel."


    "Here it is


    When Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong heard the words, they all put down their letters and went straight to the hall with Zhang Xiu.


    In the hall stood a eunuch.


    The name of this man is Ambassador Yang Chaoting.


    Yang Ping is close to Cao Cao and is Cao Cao''s servant in the palace to pay attention to Liu Xie''s every move. Originally, Yang Ping came to deliver a decree, which was also intended to beat Zhang Xiu for Cao Cao. But when he entered Chang''an from the south gate, he happened to meet Li and Guo Si who were being beaten. When he saw Li and Guo Si who had been beaten badly, he was so scared that he could not help shivering.


    It''s terrible.


    Yang Ping is also afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Yang Ping''s beating thoughts on Zhang Xiu all disappeared. He even hoped that Zhang Xiu would not embarrass him too much, so he would be grateful.


    Yang Ping first step to the hall to wait, but did not dare to produce any dissatisfaction, patience mind waiting.


    After a while, Yang Ping turned to see Zhang Xiu, who was the leader. Although he didn''t know Zhang Xiu, he could judge her bearing, dress and age.


    Yang Ping arched his hand and said, "I''ve met General Zhang!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "angel, you are welcome."


    Yang Ping didn''t say much, so he immediately spread out the imperial edict, ready to call. But he looked at Zhang Xiu, just want to let Zhang Xiu kneel down to receive the imperial edict, at the thought of Zhang Xiu''s ferocity, immediately put his mind away, and directly closed the just opened imperial edict.


    He handed the imperial edict directly to Zhang Xiu and said with a smile: "General Zhang killed Li Xi and Guo Si. He made great contributions to the world and the imperial court. Therefore, the emperor issued an imperial edict to appoint general Zhang as the commander of Sili and granted him the right to open the government."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    When he heard his Majesty''s holiness, he handed the imperial edict to Jia Xu.


    As for Yang Ping, especially Yang Ping, who came to be summoned, she was quite aware of current affairs, so Zhang Xiu didn''t make trouble. She gave some money and didn''t keep it, so she sent Yang Ping away.


    Yang Ping did not dare to stay and left quickly.


    He thought it was good to finish the task safely.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reporting: "general, Xu Juncheng, Liu Zhubo, Li Gongcao and others have gone north from Yuyang county to the outside of Chang''an city. Now, we are about to arrive at the general''s house. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu also showed a smile on her face.


    At last.


    Zhang Xiu had arranged for people to go south and let Xu Shu take over the affairs of Yuyang County, so that she could take the main people to the north and then have a foothold in Chang''an.


    Now, it''s finally coming.


    Zhang Xiu takes people back to the hall and takes a seat with Jia Xu, Pang Tong and Li Ru. They chat and wait for Xu Shu and others. It wasn''t long before soldiers came to report. Xu Shu, Liu Ba, Li Yan and others asked for an interview, and Zhang Xiu let them go directly.


    Soon, the three entered the hall.


    All along the way, the three men were dusty, and there was a trace of tiredness on their faces.


    After all, I went all the way north in a hurry without any delay, so I was quite tired.

 Chapter 275

    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "no need to salute. Let''s all sit down."


    "Here it is


    All three sit down.


    Zhang Xiuxian first introduced Li Ru, Jia Xu and Pang Tong to Xu Shu and others to let them know each other.


    Pang Tong and Xu Shu are no strangers.


    We all know Pang Tong''s reputation.


    Xu Shu knew Jia Xu, but Li Yan and Liu Ba didn''t, so they didn''t know very well. They don''t know Jia Xu''s ability, so they are not surprised.


    However, I was shocked to hear Li Ru''s name.


    Who is Li ru?


    This was once Dong Zhuo''s number one counselor.


    This is a very powerful person.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu even took Li Ru for her own use.


    Zhang Xiu saw Li Yan, Liu Ba and other people''s expression, but also understand the three people''s ideas. He laughed and said, "I used to be a stranger, but now I know each other. Since then, I hope you can cooperate sincerely. "


    "I''ll do it


    Six Qi people answered.


    At present, Zhang Xiu has begun to take shape.


    In the civil service, there are Jia Xu, Li Ru, Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Liu Ba and Li Yan. Although they are not as talented as Cao Cao, at least for now, they are enough.


    It can also be regarded as having preliminary strength.


    In terms of generals, there are Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning. There are also quite a number of generals.


    Although there are still deficiencies.


    But at present, Zhang Xiu only occupies Nanyang County, Jingzhao and youfufeng, so the current lineup is completely enough. Even if we look at the whole world, except for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the camp of many other princes can not reach the level of Zhang Xiu.


    With the combination of civil and military, the army is elite.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength now looks around the world, but also quite powerful.


    Zhang Xiu converged his mind and went back to the truth. She looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, tell me about Yuyang county."


    In Yuyang County, Xu Shu was the main one.


    After all, he was the prefect.


    Moreover, it is also the earliest person to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Xu Shu is not stage fright, not anxious, not impatient way: "return to the Lord, humble self-education Yang county to withdraw, mainly made three arrangements."


    "First, three thousand soldiers were stationed in Xinye as the first line of defense of Nanyang County. Another 2000 soldiers were deployed to Yuyang County as the second line of defense. Finally dispatched two thousand soldiers stationed in Wan County as the third line of defense.


    "With these three lines of defense, even if Liu Biao raided, he could delay Liu Biao''s attack until the Lord''s army rushed for help."


    "In this way, to ensure the safety of the whole Nanyang County."


    Xu Shu''s arrangement almost mobilized most of the troops of Nanyang County.


    In fact, when Zhang Xiu went to the north, he left few troops.


    But now Nanyang County is becoming more and more prosperous, with countless people coming and going, and the business is booming, so in this case, it is much easier for Xu Shu to recruit soldiers.


    He was in the headquarters of Nanyang County, with nearly 10000 troops.


    Zhang Xiu was also satisfied with Xu Shu''s arrangement. She said: "although Liu Biao is timid and may not have the courage to go north, it is always right to make an early arrangement in case of emergency. Your arrangement is very good. "


    Xu Shu continued: "the second is to coordinate Zhang Zhongjing''s hospital. In the near future, Zhang Zhongjing and all the doctors will go north to Chang''an and move the hospital to Chang''an."


    "Nanyang County is not suitable as a foundation."


    "Chang''an can."


    "When the Lord captured Guanzhong, Chang''an could be a foothold."


    "That''s why I transferred the hospital to Chang''an. Since then, the hospital can really continue to expand, not in Yuyang County, Nanyang County


    Xu Shu gave a second arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "the hospital is a key link, this arrangement is good."


    Xu Shu continued: "the third arrangement involves the business system under the Lord. At present, the business centers of Huangjia and Pangjia are mainly concentrated in Yuyang County, so as to promote the development of Yuyang county. "


    "Xuan paper has become a pillar."


    "It''s a sharp weapon."


    "With rice paper, we can drive countless people to fill their stomachs and let them have no worries about food and clothing."


    "So without mobilizing the business of Yuyang County, I have already discussed with Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong. Next, Pang and Huang will set up a rice paper manufacturing base in Chang''an. "


    "In this way, it will drive the commercial development of Chang''an and even Guanzhong."


    Xu Shu said: "at present, these are the three things arranged by humble position."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and praised: "it''s good. It''s good. Yuanzhi is in the back of town. I don''t have to worry about it."


    Xu Shu said, "my Lord, I praise you falsely."


    In fact, Xu Shu''s arrangement really surprised Zhang Xiu.These arrangements are in line with the next development of Zhang Xiu. Xu Shu made arrangements in advance, which can save a lot of things for Zhang Xiu.


    This is a very forward-looking arrangement.


    Xu Shu finally said: "when I went northward, I also arranged people to protect my mother. Because the mother is pregnant, the speed of driving is slow, so she is still on the way to the north, and it will take more than ten days to arrive. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, and asked the rest of the things, a lot of things to understand clearly, Zhang Xiu was completely relieved.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said that the imperial court promoted him again, appointed him as the commander of Sili school and the general of Zhennan, and opened his office. When Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan heard this, they were all very happy.


    Xu Shu is used to it.


    When he first followed Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was still penniless and not well-known.


    Not even an official position.


    After he followed Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was finally appointed as the prefect of Nanyang County, and later was appointed as the general of Zhennan by the imperial court. It was not long before he was appointed as the captain of Sili school, and he also had the right to open the government.


    Its promotion speed can be described as a straight line.


    Xu Shu is used to it.


    But after Liu Ba and Li Yan followed Zhang Xiu, they didn''t have much time to contact Zhang Xiu. Most of them were in Yuyang county to help Xu Shu deal with the affairs of Nanyang County.


    It wasn''t long before Zhang Xiu was promoted again.


    Power has been further enhanced.


    This shocked both Li Yan and Liu ba.


    But in my heart, I am more happy.


    The more powerful Zhang Xiu is and the broader the future is, the better for them. Because they are loyal to Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu are already on the same boat, both of them are prosperous and both of them are damaged.


    Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan all congratulated Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu answered with a smile, and then continued: "the appointment of the imperial court has been given to me, and I have the right to open a house. Since I have been promoted, the people under my command should also be changed. Especially in the civil service, there will be great changes. "


    Jia Xu said, "please make it public!"


    The rest of them also looked at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her announcement.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "this appointment is not in accordance with the appointment of the imperial court, but in accordance with the division of authority under my command, to carry out a new framework."


    "Since I was founded, I have six departments under my jurisdiction."


    "For the time being, these six departments are divided into the Ministry of official, the Ministry of household, the Ministry of war, the Ministry of work, the Ministry of rites and the Ministry of punishment."


    "The Ministry of official affairs is in charge of the appointment, removal, promotion, conferment and transfer of civil servants under its command."


    "the Ministry of household, in charge of the official''s command of the territory, land, registered residence, taxation, salaries and all financial matters."


    "The Ministry of arms is in charge of the selection of military officers under its own command, as well as military status, ordnance and military orders."


    "The Ministry of work is in charge of the construction of civil engineering, the utilization of utensils, the drainage of canals and weirs, and the management of paper, ink, and ink in Shanze, tuntian, craftsmen, and other departments."


    "The Ministry of rites is in charge of the decrees of etiquette, sacrifice and tribute under the command of the official."


    "The Ministry of punishment is in charge of the penalty and administrative decrees within the jurisdiction of its own officials. The Ministry of punishment is responsible for the handling of all the appropriate laws and regulations, the determination of the right to go in and out, the decision to forgive and slow down, and the amount of stolen goods, fines and loans."


    Zhang Xiu elaborated a situation of the six divisions. In fact, the situation of the six divisions is also corresponding to some household Cao and soldier Cao currently used, but the division of the six divisions is more clear.


    It works efficiently.


    Zhang Xiu has just put forward six books for the time being, and has not mentioned other parts in the six books of the three provinces. Because the current situation, there is no need to be too complicated, just need to have the existence of six departments, let his organization tell the operation.


    The rest will be considered later.


    After Zhang Xiu mentioned all the parts, Jia Xu and Li Ru''s faces were surprised. Liu Ba and Li Yan had a look of admiration and admiration. On the contrary, Pang Tong and Xu Shu were used to it and had already known Zhang Xiu''s strength.


    Zhang Xiu is a military general.


    It''s quite shocking to have such an understanding of the governance structure.


    This is also the reason why Jia Xu and Li Ru are surprised, because they know that Zhang Xiu used to be a valiant man, so they have such a big shock and gap about the change of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 276

    Zhang Xiu is used to seeing Li Ru, Jia Xu and others surprised.


    In everyone''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is a valiant man who doesn''t know four books and five classics, doesn''t understand poetry and Fu, and is a rough man. However, in the vast history of books, Zhang Xiu has learned countless predecessors'' experiences and has a clearer understanding of the power structure of the past dynasties.


    There is no doubt that the division of the six is classic.


    It''s right for the moment.


    No matter how it evolves, the six ministries have clearly divided their functions.


    Zhang Xiu has experienced the information explosion in later generations. Through the Internet age, she can learn a lot of information. If he wants to reorganize his officials, he can put forward a more modern framework.


    However, many of them are not suitable for the present. On the contrary, they are not as simple as the six part framework.


    After putting forward the six books, Zhang Xiu continued: "the principal officials of the six books are called Shangshu, which is a Shangshu. The deputy of the chief officials of the six departments is called Shi Lang, which is divided into left and right Shi Lang to assist the minister in dealing with the affairs of each department. "


    "Hiss!"


    Li Ru couldn''t help taking a breath after listening.


    When looking at Zhang Xiu, her eyes are sharp.


    He suddenly had a discovery that although Zhang Xiu was similar to Dong Zhuo when he was young, they were all men with great strategy. But in fact, Zhang Xiu and Dong Zhuo are different.


    Dong Zhuo has a good reputation and good face.


    Dong Wenzhuo can be removed from Luoyang without being imprisoned. Without killing, Dong Zhuo could control the court.


    However, Dong Zhuo was extremely strong and slaughtered all those who opposed him.


    He wants everyone''s obedience.


    Even if it''s superficial obedience, Dong Zhuo also hopes. In fact, there are countless crises in this powerful coercion, which also led to numerous boycotts after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang.


    At that time, Li Ru persuaded Dong Zhuo to recruit scholars. However, while Dong Zhuo was soliciting, he was constantly slaughtering the scholars who opposed him, which made few people loyal to Dong Zhuo.


    Zhang Xiu is different.


    Zhang Xiu is more pragmatic.


    Dong Zhuo has the idea of dominating the world, so does Zhang Xiu. This is Li rugang''s judgment.


    Today, Zhang Xiu is only a captain of Sili school. Although she has the right to start the government, she appoints the officials under her command as ministers, and also uses the official positions of Shi Lang and so on.


    You know, the official position of minister has real power and is an official in charge of everything. For example, a certain general, as well as the three generals, should be in charge of government affairs, and they were allowed to record books, so that they would not be restricted by the book order.


    So is the Chamberlain.


    Shi Lang is a subordinate official of Shang Shu. He is a senior official at the end of one year and a senior official at the end of three years.


    These are not lower than the official positions of Sili Xiaowei.


    Zhang Xiu appointed the ministers and ministers of various departments as the commander of Sili school. This is Yueyue. But there is a very clever problem, that is, these officials appointed by Zhang Xiu do not exist in reality.


    In the Han Dynasty, there were no such official positions as the Minister of the Ministry of official and the Minister of the Ministry of household, so it was impossible to determine the level of their official positions.


    This is where Zhang Xiu is smart.


    Show ambition, but not the size of the office.


    Through Zhang Xiu''s appointment to the minister and the minister, Li Ru thinks that Zhang Xiu is ambitious. But Zhang Xiu had the ambition to compete in the world. From beginning to end, she respected the imperial court and did not reveal anything.


    It''s about the inside, not the face.


    This is the best choice.


    At this time, Li Ru increasingly thought that it was a wise choice to work for Zhang Xiu.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw, and there was a flash of light in his eyes. From Zhang Xiu''s words just now, he also noticed Zhang Xiu''s ambition, at least Jia Xu thought so.


    Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan all have knowledge.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, everyone was excited. They are not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s lack of ambition, they are afraid of Zhang Xiu''s conceit.


    After Zhang Xiu finished, she suddenly understood the expression of Li Ru, Jia Xu and others. He has just talked about the situation of the officials of various ministries. He knows that Li Ru and Jia Xu think too much.


    Zhang Xiu really wants to compete in the world.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s idea.


    To start over, he is not willing to let others control his own destiny. He wants to control his own destiny. But just now, Zhang Xiu really didn''t show her mind.


    It''s just a normal description of the six parts.


    Zhang Xiu knew that Li Ru and others had misunderstood, but she didn''t correct it. She glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Xu Shu, listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Xu Shu arched his hand to answer.


    At the moment, Xu Shu''s heart was also excited. It was about this time last year that he met Zhang Xiu in Xiangyang. He was moved by Zhang Xiu and worked for her.


    In a short period of one year, Zhang Xiu has witnessed her growing from nothing, from weak to powerful. Zhang Xiu is now a commander of Sili school, a general of Zhennan, and a feudal official of the pastoral side.


    Zhang Xiu''s official position will be promoted, and Xu Shu will also be promoted, so Xu Shu is looking forward to it.He was the first person to follow Zhang Xiu.


    In terms of ability, he is not weak.


    In terms of seniority, he is the best.


    Zhang Xiu soft eyes, slowly said: "in my crisis, Yuan Zhi is not afraid of difficulties, come forward, give me advice, stabilize the rear. I''m away from home, and Yuanzhi has been in charge of the rear. On merit, Yuan Zhi should be the first. Today, I worship Yuan Zhi as the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs, commanding all the affairs of the Ministry of official affairs. "


    "Thank you


    Xu Shu got up to thank him, and solemnly said, "I should do my best to deal with all the affairs of the Ministry of officials, and not let the Lord down."


    At the moment, Xu Shu is full of emotion.


    He knew the situation of the six ministries. The Ministry of officials was in charge of the appointment and dispatch of all officials and had the greatest power.


    It''s the first of six.


    Xu Shu was very clear about Jia Xu''s ability, and he knew more about Li Ru''s power. In terms of ability and wisdom, he may not be equal to them. But he has the advantage that others do not have, young and is the first to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, he was able to serve as the Minister of the Ministry of officials.


    Xu Shu has wisdom and a long-term vision. He knows that in the long run, once Zhang Xiu really competes in the world and unifies the world, he is the real head of the six books.


    This is Xu Shu''s most excited.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Liu ba. She said again, "Liu Ba, listen to the order!"


    "Yes


    Liu Ba also immediately stood up.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the account department is in charge of all the money and grain. Only those who are proficient in financial management can be competent. Liu Ba is good at managing money. Under your care, I will have no shortage of money. Today, I worship you as the Secretary of the Ministry of household affairs. You are in charge of all the affairs of the Ministry of household affairs. "


    "Thank you, Lord."


    Liu BA was in a high mood and quickly said thanks.


    He did not follow Zhang Xiu for a long time. It was very lucky for him to be the head of a film at this time.


    This is a hero made by the times.


    When we meet, we have a chance.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Liu Ba to sit down. For Liu BA''s appointment, Zhang Xiu''s original intention was not to set up the head of the household department for the time being. However, considering the irregular name, she finally let Liu Ba be the head of the household department.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Jia Xu, listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Jia Xu stood up and bowed back.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu with a look of approval in her eyes and said, "Wen he is the first think tank under the general ''. Today, I worship you as the Minister of the Ministry of war and take charge of all the affairs of the Ministry of war. "


    "Thank you


    Jia Xu has always been happy and angry, not in the form of color. But at this time, Zhang Xiu was identified as the first think tank, but also quite excited.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement for Jia Xu was thoughtful.


    The Ministry of war is very important, and it also involves the management of Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Gan Ning and other valiant generals. Young people like Pang Tong may not be able to control these people. Only Jia Xu, who is talented, old and resourceful, can convince Huang Zhong and others.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu made Jia Xu Minister of the Ministry of war.

 Chapter 277

    Zhang Xiu has his own consideration on the arrangement of every member under her command. After arranging Jia Xu''s official position, Zhang Xiu once again said: "Pang Tong listens to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Pang Tong stood up immediately.


    Pang Tong is the youngest of all. Today Pang Tong is still the year of weak crown, but under the command of Zhang Xiu, he has held an important position. Since last year, Pang Tong has been following Zhang Xiu and has accumulated rich experience.


    Although Pang Tong was very young, he was very important under Zhang Xiu.


    Today''s Pang Tong is quite different from when he first came under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Once upon a time, Pang Tong was exposed.


    He is very rebellious. As long as he doesn''t look up to people, he doesn''t care at all. Under the guidance of Jia Xu, Pang Tong''s edge gradually became introverted and no longer revealed, which made people unable to understand.


    Pang Tong didn''t care much about what position he was going to get because he was very young.


    Youth is capital.


    What he has to do now is to continuously accumulate qualifications and experience. When others reach middle age, they need to have experience, experience and qualification, and then they really enter the peak period.


    That''s how it works.


    Zhang Xiu also appreciated Pang Tong, and said in a deep voice: "Shi Yuan was enthusiastic, because I called on Shi Zi to resist Xiongnu, and went north to Nanyang County to follow me, and made great contributions. Today, I will take you as the Secretary of the Ministry of rites and be responsible for all the affairs of the Ministry of rites. "


    "I will do my duty."


    Pang Tong answered with a smile.


    He was very content.


    At his age, he can become an important official under Zhang Xiu''s command. It''s quite good to control one alone. As long as he follows Zhang Xiu closely, he will be a marquis in the future.


    After Zhang Xiu motioned Pang Tong to sit down, her eyes fell on Li Yan and said, "Li Yan listens to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Li Yan stood up excitedly.


    He is full of gratitude and respect for Zhang Xiu.


    If not for Zhang Xiu, he is still wandering in Xiangyang City, still running around for three meals a day. Without Zhang Xiu, his wife and children would suffer, unable to live in peace.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, he is today.


    Although Li Yan did not follow Zhang Xiu for a long time, he was loyal to her.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are calm, not impatient and not impatient, and she says, "Li Yan is a person who can be made because of his rigorous behavior and outstanding talent. Today, I will take you as the Minister of the Ministry of work and take charge of all the affairs of the Ministry of work. "


    "Thank you


    Li Yan said excitedly: "please don''t worry, I will do my best to do a good job in the work department."


    Li Yan was excited and felt more responsible.


    We can''t live up to Zhang Xiu''s trust.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let Li Yan sit down. Then she looked at the last Li Ru. Her eyes praised her and said, "Li Ru!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Li Ru is neither humble nor overbearing.


    After the arrangement, there was no need to guess. He also knew what official position he would hold.


    It must be the Minister of punishment.


    Sure enough, Zhang Xiu said: "your talent, no doubt, no one will doubt, this will not be redundant. Today, I will take you as the Minister of the Ministry of punishment and be responsible for the affairs of the Ministry of punishment. "


    "I''ll do it


    Li Ru responded directly.


    As Zhang Xiu''s minister of punishment, Li Ru is satisfied as one of the six giants under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Strictly speaking, although the power of the Minister of punishment is not as powerful as that of the official department, as long as Zhang Xiu is willing to delegate power, his power is enough to surpass that of the Ministry of household and the Ministry of war.


    It depends on whether Zhang Xiu has delegated power.


    Li Ru is not in a hurry.


    Now is not the time to expand the power of the Ministry of punishment. Let''s sort it out first.


    Zhang Xiu motioned Li Ru to sit down, glanced at the six people, and said, "the division of the six departments is proper. Next, there are arrangements for the left and right servants. As the chief officials, you will select from among the officials, select the right candidates, and report them to me for approval. We should work out the matter as soon as possible, so that all departments can work, and there will be no empty shelves


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu, Li Ru and other six answered.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning.


    The three are Zhang Xiu''s great generals.


    Zhang Xiu''s official position changed and she became a captain of Sili school. Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning had to be promoted.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Gan Ning!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Gan Ning got up and clasped his fist.


    Among the generals, Gan Ning was the first to join Zhang Xiu. Like Xu Shu, he is qualified and capable. Today, Gan Ning is alone in command of the liehu army. Although he is inferior to Huang Zhong in martial arts, Gan Ning can step up the training of soldiers to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army.


    His fierce tiger army must be elite.


    Zhang xiulang said: "since the general was based in Yuyang County, xingba followed him, attacked Wei Yan, defeated Xiongnu, defeated Cao Cao, and now he is in charge of Guanzhong. In every war, you are involved. Every battle has your credit. Today, I will worship you as general Huwei, commanding eight thousand fierce tigers. ""I''ll do it


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    For Gan Ning, he was the chief General of the first army. He was appointed by Zhang Xiu. He changed from the former captain to the current general Huwei, which is even more justified.


    Zhang Xiu asked Zhang Xiu to sit down and said again, "Chen Dao listens to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Chen Dao also got up quickly.


    Today, the number of cavalry of Langya battalion led by Chen Zhi is constantly expanding, not only limited to 3000 cavalry of Langya battalion, but also increasing conventional forces.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Chen Zhi was loyal to the general for expelling Xiongnu. His loyalty and courage are unparalleled. Today, I will worship you as a cavalry general, commanding the cavalry of Langya camp. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Chen Dao gives his fist.


    He is not a talkative person. After Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, he just made up his mind to train the Langya camp so that it is really elite, not a code name.


    As soon as the wolf teeth come out, they are invincible.


    Langya camp, advance without retreat!


    This is the target set by commander Chen Dao for the soldiers of Langya camp.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turn and finally fall on Huang Zhong. In fact, Zhang Xiu thinks highly of Huang Zhong, because Huang Zhong is not only the best in martial arts, but also has rich experience.


    This is the most powerful part of Huang Zhong.


    Zhang xiudao: "Huang Zhong!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Huang Zhong gets up and hugs his fist.


    For Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong is very grateful. When he was in trouble, Zhang Xiu made him out of trouble. Especially according to Deng Zhan, Zhang Zhongjing said that Huang Xu''s disease can be cured, but it takes a longer time.


    Huang Zhong has been waiting for many years and doesn''t care about this time.


    Huang Zhong has no worries if his son can be cured.


    All this is brought by Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Huang Zhong''s relationship with Zhang Xiu is not only Zhang Xiu''s kindness, but also his great kindness at home.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Huang Zhong is loyal and brave. Today, I will worship you as general Fenwei."


    "Thank you


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "the promotion of officers and soldiers in the army, as well as the reward after the war, should be arranged as soon as possible, as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen came together to respond.


    In fact, during this period of time, the three men have been sorting out the previous war situation, reporting their achievements and rewarding the soldiers in the army.


    It is necessary to reward good and punish evil.


    You will be rewarded for your meritorious service.


    This is the iron rule in the army.


    It''s just that there are too many soldiers involved and the speed of statistics is very slow, so things have slowed down a little. However, everything has been progressing steadily without any delay.

 Chapter 278

    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, soldiers reported outside the hall.


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The soldier entered quickly, saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully, and reported: "general Qi, there is a man from outside the mansion. He claims to be an envoy of Yuan Shu and has come to see the general."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Yuan Shu sent an emissary.


    It''s a rare thing.


    Yuan Shu now lives in Shouchun, Yangzhou, and his days after becoming emperor are becoming more and more erosive. Under such circumstances, Yuan Shu arranged for people to come to Guanzhong, which was unexpected.


    Zhang Xiu said, "please come in!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and other people and said, "after the system of civil servants and military generals is established, we should rectify it as soon as possible. Don''t delay everything. Just hurry up and get busy. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    One by one, they got up and left the hall and went straight out.


    Zhang Xiu waited alone in the hall for a short time. He was a middle-aged scholar with short stature, slightly ugly appearance, eight character eyebrows and a flat nose. Wearing a broad collar shirt and a Jin Xian crown, he strode into the hall.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu shakes her head in her heart.


    Is this Yuan Shu''s envoy?


    At least Yuan Shu has been called emperor. As the emperor of a country, it''s a shame to send such goods as envoys.


    "I''m Li Feng. On my Lord''s order, I''m here to summon you."


    His name is Li Feng.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he still held his head high and looked upright. After he said what he wanted to do, he took out a yellow imperial edict from his sleeve and said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, your majesty established his country and declared himself Emperor. In memory of his contribution in killing Xiongnu, he specially ordered me to summon General Zhang to become a general of Hussars. Please accept the edict."


    Zhang Xiu laughs at this.


    General Hussars!


    If put in the imperial court, this is a powerful general. Unfortunately, it is an imperial edict issued by Yuan Shu.


    Zhang Xiu can''t accept it.


    People all over the world don''t agree with Yuan Shu''s claim to be emperor in Shouchun. They even think that Yuan Shu is an anti thief. No matter which princes, they are not willing to identify with Yuan Shu. Under such a premise, Yuan Shu thought of Zhang Xiu and asked Li Feng to summon him to confer the title of Zhang Xiu. As long as Zhang Xiu accepted the appointment of general Hushi, she was on Yuan Shu''s side.


    It''s like supporting Yuan Shu.


    It is also equal to recognizing Yuan Shu as emperor.


    This is Yuan Shu''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is like a mirror, light way: "Yuan Shu''s good intentions, this will lead, but the imperial edict is not necessary, let Yuan Shu keep is. This general was issued by the emperor, and was granted to the commander of Sili school and the general of Zhennan. Now it''s not bad. "


    Li Feng''s face changed slightly.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu turned out to be the captain of Sili in the Han Dynasty.


    This is an important position.


    Li Feng didn''t worry. He turned his eyes. After thinking about it, he said, "what''s the use of Liu Xie appointing General Zhang to be the commander of Sili? Is a Sili captain equal to the Hussars general? "


    Zhang Xiu strong way: "I say than, than."


    Li Feng frowned.


    There are some problems with Zhang Xiu''s attitude.


    It''s hard for him.


    Fortunately, Li Feng was not unprepared. He changed the subject and continued: "General Zhang is not willing to accept your Majesty''s imperial edict. That''s OK. It''s a small matter."


    "Now that Cao Cao wants to attack Yangzhou, his majesty will mobilize a large army to fight back and prepare to defeat Cao Cao, enter Xuchang and win the emperor of the Han Dynasty."


    "Your Majesty wants to attack Cao Cao. The more you help, the better."


    "Your Majesty hopes to form an alliance with general Zhang and lead the army to confront Cao Cao. General Zhang mobilized his troops and sent troops on Cao Cao''s back, which made Cao Cao''s rear area turbulent. "


    "If you take Cao Cao, your majesty is willing to carve up Yanzhou and Qingzhou together with general Zhang."


    Li Feng said, "what do you think of General Zhang?"


    If Zhang Xiu of Yuan Shu didn''t accept the imperial edict, he would change his strategy and prepare to unite with Zhang Xiu.


    After the alliance, Zhang Xiu also had to send troops.


    Otherwise it won''t make sense.


    Zhang Xiu knows Yuan Shu''s ability. Although she has a good family background, she has great ambition and few talents. Even if Yuan Shu occupied Yangzhou and became emperor in Shouchun, he didn''t work hard after he became emperor. Instead, he constantly exploited the people and searched for the people''s fat and cream.


    Such people can''t do anything.


    Typical pig teammates.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to get involved in any relationship with Yuan Shu, so in the face of Li Feng''s words, Zhang Xiu said directly: "send troops or something, then you don''t have to. Yuan Shu openly rebelled against the Han people and supported himself. He was lucky that he didn''t send troops to attack. "


    When Li Feng heard this, his face cooled down. He didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to be so tough.


    This is beyond Li Feng''s expectation.


    Li Feng knew that Zhang Xiu had won successive battles and that Zhang Xiu had killed Xiongnu and retired Cao Cao, but in fact, he didn''t think much of Zhang Xiu.It''s just a martial arts man.


    He is a great general that Yuan Shu relies on and an important Minister of a country.


    Li Feng didn''t think that Cao Cao was very strong. He thought that even if Cao Cao wanted to attack Shouchun, he thought that Yuan Shu could win.


    So hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Li Feng said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, your majesty gives you face, that is to look up to you. If you offer a toast and don''t drink, when your majesty defeats Cao Cao, you will surely attack Guanzhong. Are you not afraid? "


    "I''m so scared!"


    Zhang Xiu said sarcastically: "Yuan Shu''s local chicken and tile dog is not worth mentioning. It is impossible to defeat Cao Cao. "


    "You will regret it," Li said


    Zhang Xiu shook her head, tut tut said: "this will not regret, but you, Li Feng, will regret coming to Chang''an. Yuan Shu rebelled against the Han Dynasty and stood on his own. You are the envoys of Yuan Shu. If the two armies don''t kill the envoys, they won''t kill you. But if you don''t clean up, you don''t know how to write awe. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The order was given, and the two soldiers entered quickly and stood respectfully in the hall.


    Seeing this, Li Feng couldn''t help feeling a little alarmed. He yelled, "Zhang Xiu, what are you going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "I''ll teach you a lesson, so that you can have a good memory, so that you won''t know that heaven is high and earth is thick. If you were in the early years, you would have been put to death. "


    He looked at the soldier and ordered, "drag the man down to me, stick twenty soldiers, and throw them out of the barracks."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers must be ordered to come forward immediately.


    Li Feng was so angry that he said, "Zhang Xiu, you''ve been deceiving people too much. Your majesty will not let you go if you do this to me. You are now in Guanzhong. When your majesty defeats Cao Cao, you will be killed. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the staff is responsible for thirty army staff!"


    "Here it is


    The soldier replied again.


    Li Feng is still angry, even more angry about Zhang Xiu''s arrogance, shouting: "Zhang Xiu, you will regret it."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the staff is responsible for the forty army staff!"


    The soldier answered again, but Li Feng''s cheek kept twitching, and his face was very frightened.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t regret it. He didn''t know.


    Now, he regrets it.


    He just said a few words, and he added twenty army sticks. Now he has to be blamed by the staff for the forty army staff. If the forty army staff goes down, he can only go back to Yangzhou in the carriage, and it will be very painful because of the bumps along the way.


    Li Feng thought of his tragic situation and did not dare to be arrogant any more. He quickly begged for mercy and said, "General Zhang, Li Feng is wrong. For your Majesty''s sake, please spare me this time. "


    He begged for mercy.


    He felt numb at the thought of the scene when the forty army staff went down.


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "I regret it now. What did I do just now? Even if you kowtow for mercy, it won''t help. If I don''t blame you, how can I show the general''s attitude towards Yuan Shu? "


    "Take it down!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a strong order.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to tell the world that he was against Yuan Shu''s claim to be emperor.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s position.


    When Li Feng heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he immediately wanted to open his mouth to drink abuse, but when he got to his mouth, he immediately swallowed it back. If he and Zhang Xiu disagree and are blamed by the staff, it will be miserable.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s departure, he can only silently bear, dare not and Zhang Xiu arrogant.

 Chapter 279

    Li Feng was pulled out by the soldiers. After he was hit with 40 army sticks, his buttocks were all skin and flesh, and his pants were stained red with blood. That ugly face, full of fine beads of sweat, no longer a bit to the calm.


    Originally, he looked vulgar.


    Now I''ve been beaten, my cheeks are taut, and my eyes are full of resentment. It''s even uglier and looks bad. Li Feng thought that when he returned to Shouchun, he would encourage Yuan Shu to attack Zhang Xiu after he blocked Cao Cao''s attack.


    Just after this idea just rose, Li Feng sighed again and felt helpless.


    It''s hard to attack Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shu is in Yangzhou and Zhang Xiu is in Guanzhong, a long distance away.


    Unless we can kill Cao Cao.


    But it''s hard.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, Li Feng threatened that once Yuan Shu killed Cao Cao, he would attack Zhang Xiu. In fact, Yuan Shu really does not have this strength.


    The reason is very simple. In the face of Cao Cao''s attack, Yuan Shu was extremely afraid. As soon as he got the news that Cao Cao was going to send troops, he arranged for Li Feng to come to Zhang Xiu for help.


    I didn''t expect to get a brush.


    Even the butt was smashed.


    With endless resentment, Li Feng left the general''s house, and then fell on the carriage to let the driver leave.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about Li Feng.


    I don''t care about Yuan Shu.


    If he did not help Cao Cao attack Yuan Shu, that would be good. If Zhang Xiu is irritated, he will directly take part in the war against Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu will not be able to afford it.


    After Li Feng left, Zhang Xiu was at leisure. After all, the six departments have been established. Jia Xu, Li Ru and others are excellent people. In a very short time, they have constructed the six departments and sorted out the situation quickly.


    The army is also constantly adjusting.


    The two places, Jingzhao and youfufeng, are constantly digesting and adjusting. They were constantly assigned to local offices to enrich and improve local conditions.


    The continuous flow of people returning to Guanzhong enriches the population of Guanzhong.


    In this era, population is a strategic resource.


    When there are people, there is everything.


    Although there are many people pouring into Jingzhao and youfufeng, there is no pressure on Zhang Xiu. As long as the government reclaims the farmland, the people will dig the ditches.


    All kinds of things, enough to accommodate countless people.


    Although countless grains are consumed every day and a lot of money will be spent, it is worth it for Zhang Xiu.


    Moreover, Zhang Xiu had enough food and money.


    Zhang Xiu accepted all the people and settled them down.


    The whole Guanzhong area is flourishing.


    Time flies, early June.


    It''s getting hot.


    On this day, when Zhang Xiu was dealing with government affairs in the general''s office, Deng Zhan rushed in, his face was full of happy smile, and reported: "my master and my mother''s car entered Chang''an, less than six miles away from Chang''an."


    Zhang xiuceng stood up, his face showing a happy look.


    Huang Yueying came later than Xu Shu.


    After all, I''m pregnant.


    Now that Huang Yueying is about three months pregnant, her child is stable.


    It''s true. It''s slower to go.


    Zhang Xiu immediately took Deng Zhan out of the door and drove her horse to the direction of the south gate. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the south gate, Huang Yueying had not arrived yet, but Zhang Xiu could not wait. She rode out to meet Huang Yueying.


    Not far away, Zhang Xiu met Huang Yueying''s motorcade.


    When the motorcade stopped, the curtain of the carriage door was lifted, but Huang Yueying''s mother, Cai Shi, lifted the curtain first.


    Zhang Xiu went forward and said, "mother in law!"


    Chua nodded and gave a smile.


    Huang Yueying leaned out her head and said, "husband!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Yueying has worked hard all the way."


    "No hard work!"


    Huang Yueying has a happy smile on her face. After two or three months, she has grown some meat and gained a little weight. But she used to be thinner, but now she has some meat. She looks more charming and has no influence on her beauty.


    Huang Yueying took the initiative to say, "sister Cao is in the back of a carriage. Let''s have a look."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu answers with a smile.


    He went to a carriage behind him. Cao Jie lifted the curtain of the carriage door and saluted Zhang Xiu, saying, "I have seen my husband."


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s hard for you."


    Cao Jie said, "I''m not hard-working."


    Cao Jie didn''t have much contact with Zhang Xiu, but it didn''t hinder his understanding of Zhang Xiu. Through many sources, Cao Jie learned more and more about Zhang Xiu, and the image of Zhang Xiu in her mind became more and more three-dimensional.


    Zhang Xiu based in Guanzhong, she is also proud of Zhang Xiu.


    If you marry a chicken, follow a dog.She married Zhang Xiu, and now she is proud of her.


    After a few words, Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie went back to Huang Yueying''s carriage and rode along with it.


    After entering the city, the troops arrived at the general''s residence.


    Huang Yueying got out of the carriage with the help of the servant girl and went to the house. Although Huang Yueying is pregnant for three months now, she has gained a little weight, but she is not very pregnant. After all, she is only three months pregnant, which is not the time for her children to grow rapidly.


    They were all placed in the backyard of the general''s residence.


    Zhang Xiu is away from home and seldom gets along with Huang Yueying. Throughout the afternoon, Zhang Xiu accompanied Huang Yueying, talking about her children''s affairs, and some interesting stories and stories about the war outside, which made Huang Yueying giggle.


    Huang Yueying also said things in Yuyang county. When Zhang Xiu was surprised, the relationship between Huang Yueying and Cao Jie was very harmonious.


    They are like sisters.


    In the evening, Huang Yueying took the initiative to say, "husband, I am pregnant. You go to sister Cao''s yard at night. Sister Cao is married. She has a sensitive identity. Her husband should give her more care. "


    "I see."


    Zhang Xiu agreed with a smile.


    Today''s Huang Yueying shows the grace of a woman.


    After she became pregnant, she was taken care of by CAI. She seldom bothered about the utensils, but more about preparing the children''s clothes and thinking about the future of the children.


    Now Huang Yueying has changed a lot.


    A woman is weak, but a mother is strong.


    That''s how it is.


    After dinner, Zhang Xiu left Huang Yueying''s yard and went straight to Cao Jie''s yard.


    Today, Cao Jie is more and more graceful.


    Huang Yueying is easy to get along with, and Cao Jie is smart. So although Cao Jie is married, he has a very comfortable life, and there is nothing like discrimination.


    Every day she read books and played with female workers, but life passed quickly.


    When Zhang Xiu enters the yard, the servant girl is very happy when she sees it. She wants to inform her, but she is stopped by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu asked the maid to have a rest and went to Cao Jie''s room.


    "Creak!"


    Zhang Xiu went to the door and pushed the door open.


    Cao Jie was reading a book at the moment. Hearing the sound of pushing the door, he thought it was a servant girl and said without raising his head: "Ping''er, I''ve told you that the general and his wife love each other. Tonight, the general must be with his wife. There''s no need to wait. You go to bed early, and I''ll have a rest when I finish reading. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she lost her smile.


    Cao Jie has a broad mind.


    Zhang Xiu went straight to Cao Jie and said with a smile, "how do you know that Ben will not come back tonight?"


    "Ah


    Cao Jie suddenly exclaimed.


    The book in my hand also fell on the ground. I was very surprised. How did she not expect that Zhang Xiu had come to her side. According to her imagination, even if Huang Yueying is pregnant, it''s not convenient for her to have the same room, Zhang Xiu will accompany Huang Yueying.


    But here comes Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Jie''s face, Teng''s turn red, pretty face full of coquettish look.

 Chapter 280

    Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu, who is still the daughter of Huang Hua.


    She is still perfect.


    Starting from Xudu, she married Zhang Xiu in Luyang County, because Zhang Xiu was eager to go south to Xiangyang to recruit talents, and Cao Jie had to go to Yuyang County, so they didn''t go the same way.


    Although she married Zhang Xiu at that time, she didn''t share the same bed.


    Now Zhang Xiu comes to her yard.


    I want to sleep together.


    Thinking of this, Cao Jie''s face is not only bashful, but also his cheeks are boiling hot. The warm heat seems to be steaming with dense clouds, which makes people feel more charming and attractive.


    "My body, I serve my husband to undress."


    After all, it was the first time for Cao Jie to get up stutteringly. It''s impossible to keep calm when it comes to a girl like Cao Jie.


    Zhang Xiu is from the past.


    He laughed, didn''t answer immediately, just sat down beside Cao Jie.


    Cao Jie is even more coy.


    I feel like I''m urging. I''m sorry.


    The look on Cao Jie''s face was very embarrassing.


    Zhang Xiu, however, seems to have never seen it before. She just picks up the books that fall on the ground. Today''s books are all made of rice paper. A book made of rice paper can copy many classics and reduce the cost of reading.


    The emergence of rice paper has changed the situation of too many scholars.


    Reading is no longer as difficult as before.


    Originally, a book can only be recorded by countless bamboo slips. Now it is very convenient to copy it on rice paper.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to see the cover.


    The book that Cao Jie read was the art of war, which was rarely seen on a woman.


    Of course, in any era, there are women with different characteristics.


    For example, Huang Yueying likes to fiddle with devices and make all kinds of utensils; for example, sun Shangxiang of Jiangdong is good at sword dancing and has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He likes martial arts more than female workers; for example, Cao Jie is fond of reading books and military books.


    Zhang Xiu took a picture of the dusty cover and asked, "do you like to read the art of war?"


    "Yes


    Cao Jie nods and answers.


    Zhang xiucha opened the previous awkward topic, and Cao Jie regained his composure. Just in front of Zhang Xiu, her heart is still beating, very shy.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "did you start to read the book of war since childhood?"


    Cao Jie replied: "my father likes reading books, especially military books. There are many books in his family, such as the art of war of Sun Tzu, the art of war of Wei Liao Zi, and the art of war of Sun Bin. My father liked it, so I read them


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you have read the art of war strategy, and your knowledge is extraordinary. What kind of situation might the world be like today? "


    When Cao Jie heard Zhang Xiu''s questions, he became more focused than ever before.


    All the thoughts in my mind are put aside.


    She has no shame now.


    On Cao Jie''s pretty face, there was a different kind of serious temperament, which made Zhang Xiu stay for a while, and then recovered. Cao Jie thought for a moment, and said slowly: "today, in the world of the Great Han Dynasty, dragons and snakes must rise to the land, and the princes will fight for hegemony."


    "I heard that Yuan Shu became emperor."


    "After Yuan Shu became emperor, his father would send troops to fight against Yuan Shu. I''ve heard that Yuan Shu was extravagant and licentious. After he became emperor, he didn''t shrink at all. On the contrary, he intensified his efforts. "


    "Yuan Shu is like this. His officers and men are also superior and inferior, and the combat effectiveness of the army is poor."


    Cao Jie said: "if the two sides fight, Yuan Shu will be defeated."


    "My father defeated Yuan Shu and swept away the undeserving officials. Although he shocked all the princes in the world, Yuan Shu made a start when he called himself Emperor, which reduced the number of princes who were in awe of the Han Dynasty. I''m afraid there are very few princes in the world who are really loyal to the Han Dynasty."


    "One by one, will have two hearts."


    "Hanshi has declined since then."


    "Even if no one is called emperor, the Han Dynasty will continue to decline. Liu''s country is likely to fall by the wayside. "


    Cao Jie was very attentive. His dark eyes were full of wisdom. He said, "but these are just my temporary judgments. It is difficult to judge the general trend of the world. It is the so-called situation that makes heroes. What if some of the Liu family, like Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, come forward again and shoulder the banner of the Han Dynasty


    With that, Cao Jie said, "I''m full of nonsense. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "your words are very insightful. In the world, there are countless princes with two hearts. Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, for example, wanted to be emperors. Like Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan, they are all like this. "


    Cao Jie asked: "where is your husband?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I am loyal to the emperor. After all, I am the captain of Sili school granted by the emperor."


    Zhang Xiu can''t talk nonsense about this.


    Even if the person in front of her is Cao Jie, Zhang Xiu will not let go at will.


    With a smile on his face, Cao Jie said, "what my husband said is true. He is a senior officer of Sili school granted by the emperor, and he should be loyal to the emperor."Zhang Xiu said, "what do you suggest about my current situation?"


    Cao Jie replied: "my husband is very wise and has a strategy. However, I think that what my husband should do now is to keep a low profile, accumulate strength and not love fame. First Guanzhong, then Yongliang, and then Shuzhong. In this way, we can advance, attack and retreat, which is the basis of our foothold. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed and praised: "I, Zhang Xiu, have a good wife at home!"


    Cao Jie''s words simply sum up, that is, to accumulate grain to slow the king.


    Build up your strength and think about other things.


    Cao Jie was praised by Zhang Xiu, and he was very happy.


    Zhang Xiu did not expect that Cao Jie, a woman, had such a vision. As a matter of fact, Zhang Xiu really wanted to fix Guanzhong first, block Guanzhong and Zhongyuan, then close the door to stabilize the rear, and finally win Shuzhong.


    With Guanzhong, Shuzhong and Liangzhou united, Zhang Xiu''s strength is not weak.


    As for Jingzhou, it''s easy to get.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to tear her face with Liu Biao for the time being, because maintaining the current relationship with Liu Biao has more advantages than disadvantages.


    They chatted happily.


    Time goes by, and between Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie, from two people separated by a person''s distance, to quietly close to each other. Cao Jie unconsciously, has nestled in Zhang Xiu''s chest, a little bird.


    The atmosphere is beautiful.


    No more abrupt and embarrassing.


    Chat topic, also gradually change, talked about the romantic.


    Zhang Xiu no longer digs the topic, bows her head and kisses her.


    Two mouths imprint each other, soft glutinous feeling breeding, two people embrace together, love AIDS, everything comes naturally.


    The candle flickered and the two figures swayed.


    A faint gasp came from the room. The voice began to mingle with a touch of pain, and in the end it was full of joy


    I don''t know when the clouds will disappear.


    Everything was quiet again.


    Cao''s body is soft, and she has no strength to lie on her chest.


    Since then, she is really Zhang Xiu''s person.


    Born in Zhangjia.


    Death is Zhang Jia ghost.


    Zhang Xiu stretches her hand across Cao Jie''s Satin like back, chatting with Cao Jie and saying some interesting things, which makes Cao Jie giggle and feel very happy.


    The night was deep, and they didn''t know when to go to sleep.


    Everything was quiet again.


    The next morning.


    After washing, Cao Jie waited on Zhang Xiu to wear a coat and watched her leave.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Cao Jie''s servant girl came quickly, with a look of joy and excitement on her face, and said: "Congratulations, congratulations. Since then, she has really established herself in the general''s mansion. If you are pregnant with the general''s child again, everything will be perfect. "


    Cao Jie feels satisfied now.


    Zhang Xiu is the commander of Sili school and the general of Zhennan. There are only Huang Yueying and her two women. She thinks she is very good.


    It''s a good day.


    Cao Jie said with a smile, "let it be. What should come will come naturally."


    "You are..."


    Seeing that Cao Jie was not worried, the servant girl was very anxious. She is Cao Jie''s servant girl. The higher her status is, the better her life will be. She hopes that Cao Jie will get pregnant soon.


    The servant girl wanted to say more, but Cao Jie glared at her and swallowed all her words.

 Chapter 281

    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu went to Huang Yueying''s yard to visit her. Now that Huang Yueying is pregnant and has her first child, it''s not easy. So when Zhang Xiu is at home, she should care more.


    After sitting in Huang Yueying''s yard for a while, Zhang Xiu got up and left, and went to the study to deal with official business.


    Busy, do not feel the passage of time.


    In the twinkling of an eye, near noon.


    When Zhang Xiu was going to lunch, a soldier reported that Wang Yue wanted to see her.


    Wang Yue is in charge of the royal guards and is responsible for inquiring about information from all over the country. After Zhang Xiu set up six departments, he called Jia Xu, Li Ru and others, introduced Wang Yue to the public in front of them, and promoted Wang Yue to general Huben.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu also specially asked Liu Ba to allocate money to help Wang Yue install spies in various places so as to inquire about the news.


    Only when money opens the way, can it be easy to infiltrate and pry for information.


    Wang Yue is very busy now.


    It''s not easy to install spies.


    It takes a certain amount of time for Wang Yue to infiltrate and lurk. During this period, many things can be smoothly pushed forward. It is Wang Yue who, relying on his many years of contacts, constantly finds out some Rangers, and makes many Rangers work for him, so that he has established his current contacts and power.


    The present of the royal guards.


    Zhang Xiu knows about the expansion of the royal guards and agrees with Wang Yue''s practice. She hopes that Wang Yue will continue to expand his strength and infiltrate all over the country as soon as possible.


    The royal guards don''t need combat power.


    Just intelligence.


    The wider the contacts, the more favorable it will be for the royal guards.


    When Wang Yue asks for a meeting, Zhang Xiu puts off going to lunch and arranges for Wang Yue to be invited.


    Soon, Wang Yue entered the study.


    "I''ve met my Lord in my humble position as king Yue."


    Wang Yue saluted respectfully. Although his temples were white, his face was red now. Because of the busy time, he felt that he had a place to use, and he was very energetic.


    "What''s the matter?" Zhang Xiu asked


    Wang Yue looked a little nervous and reported: "report back to my Lord, I got the news that Chencang County fell and was captured by Ma Teng and Han Sui. Today, Ma Teng and Han then occupy Chencang County, and have not taken any further action for the time being. "


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, face suddenly cold down.


    His eyes are full of fierce colors.


    He won Jingzhao and youfufeng, but didn''t go to Ma Teng and Han Sui for trouble. Unexpectedly, the two men started first and united to win Chencang county.


    Chencang county is the county to the west of youfufeng and the main road to Liangzhou. Ma Teng and Han Sui are both living in Liangzhou, but they suddenly enter Chencang, which is quite unexpected.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and read it carefully.


    It was mentioned in the letter that the news of the killing of Li Xi and Guo Si spread to Xiliang, and Han Sui and Ma Teng felt sorry for their own situation, so they first attacked Chencang and captured Chencang county.


    More information, such as the respective strength of Han Sui and Ma Teng, and the layout of the situation, is all unknown.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue, make every effort to mobilize the royal guards, and arrange all the royal guards under your command to Chencang county to infiltrate. Be sure to find out the situation of Ma Teng and Han Sui. Their troops, their personnel deployment, and their counselors, and so on. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue got the order and solemnly responded.


    Wang Yue left in a hurry. Zhang Xiu thought about Chencang County in her heart and immediately said, "come


    A soldier enters and stands with a bow.


    Zhang xiudao: "inform Jia Xu, Li Ru, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Li Yan and Liu Ba to come to discuss the matter immediately."


    "Here it is


    The soldier had to order him to turn around and inform him.


    Zhang Xiu also thought that it was time to have lunch near noon. I''m afraid everyone who came here was hungry. He immediately arranged for the cook to prepare more meals and send them directly to the study.


    When Jia Xu, Li Ru and others arrived, the cook also brought food.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "time is pressing. If you don''t have lunch at noon, you can talk while eating."


    They didn''t move their chopsticks for the time being. They all looked at Zhang Xiu with a puzzled look on their faces.


    What happened again?


    Zhang Xiu said that time is pressing, which shows that the situation is not simple.


    Zhang Xiu said quickly: "just received the news from Chencang County, Ma Teng and Han then sent troops to attack Chencang county. Today''s Chencang county has fallen into the hands of Ma Teng and Han Sui. "


    When they heard the words, they all changed color.


    No one thought that Ma Teng and Han Sui had the courage.


    At this time, he stroked the tiger''s whiskers.


    Zhang Xiu said, "why do you think Han Sui and Ma Teng raided Chencang county?"


    People are thinking.


    Chencang county is a small county, but its geographical location is important, and it is a strategic place in the west of Guanzhong. With Chencang County, there is a bridgehead to attack Liangzhou. In the same way, if Ma Teng and Han Sui mastered Chencang County, Zhang Xiu''s belly and back would be very dangerous.That''s the same thing.


    At the moment, no one has an appetite, because if we don''t deal with Ma Teng and Han Sui well, Zhang Xiu will be quite passive if she wants to base herself on Guanzhong.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, and sounded outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open with a creak, and a soldier entered quickly. He reported: "general, there is a man outside the house named Kuai Yue, who claims to be the envoy of Mu Liubiao in Jingzhou. He wants to see the Lord."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    At the moment Zhang Xiu is frowning, just out of Chen Cang, Liu Biao sent Kuai more and more. Fortunately, Kuai Yue is here. This is her own person. Through Kuai Yue, Zhang Xiu can understand Liu Biao''s intention in Jingzhou.


    After all, Kuai Yue superficially belongs to Liu Biao, but in fact, he is Zhang Xiu''s person.


    Soon, Kuai Yue entered the study and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu asked straight to the point: "different degrees, you come to Chang''an, why?"


    Kuai Yue said: "in reply to the general, Liu Biao sent me to Chang''an because he thought that the general had taken Chang''an. He hoped that the general could fulfill his previous agreement and help him take Yuzhang county."


    Zhang Xiu snorted: "Liu Biao is eager. As soon as I''m based in Chang''an, he''s going to seize the Yuzhang."


    Kuai Yue smiles and says, "if the general is going to attack Yuzhang, he can attack Guo and take the whole Jingzhou. After all, the officials in Jingzhou were born and used to be officials of Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family. As long as the general Nanxi, Jingzhou can change the flag, Liu Biao issued any order, it is useless


    Today''s Jingzhou is Liu Biao''s.


    In fact, all the major families are loyal to Zhang Xiu and have been tied up with her.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I can''t go south now. Just after receiving the news, Ma Teng and Han Sui joined hands to conquer Chencang County, threatening the security of Chang''an. I must first recapture Chen Cang, defeat the coalition forces of Ma Teng and Han Sui, and stabilize the situation. "


    Zhang Xiu took out the letter and handed it to Kuai Yue to read it.


    Kuai Yue was a little disappointed after reading it, but he solemnly said, "don''t worry, general. I''ll go south and return to Xiangyang. I''ll tell Liu Biao the situation. I''ll keep Liu Biao stable and not let Liu Biao make trouble in the rear."


    Kuai Yue was disappointed.


    He hoped that Zhang Xiu would go south to Jingzhou earlier, and the Kuai family would turn to the stage from the dark.


    It''s not going to stay dormant.


    However, Kuai Yue is also an insightful person. He knows the situation in Guanzhong, and knows that Chencang is an important town in Guanzhong, so he can''t allow any loss. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s rear area will never be peaceful.


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s hard work."


    Kuai Yue shook his head, he did not delay time, quickly left.


    He came and went in a hurry.


    Zhang Xiu had no time to see Kuai Yue off. After seeing him off, she looked at the crowd again and asked, "what do you think of the situation in Chencang county?"


    Jia Xu bowed his hand and solemnly said, "Lord, after considering his humble position, he thinks that there are two possibilities for Han Sui and Ma Teng to raid Chencang county."


    Zhang Xiu said: "which two possibilities?"

 Chapter 282

    Jia Xu''s eyes were wise, and he stroked his beard under his jaw. He analyzed: "Ma Teng and Han Sui took Chencang. The first possibility is that Ma Teng and Han Sui were provoked, so they sent troops to attack Chencang."


    "The person to stir up trouble may be Duan Xu."


    "After the Lord has captured Jingzhao and youfufeng, his next goal is Duan Xu. Duan is narrow-minded, but he has considerable ability and vision. "


    "If he kills Wu Xi, make it known to the Lord."


    "But when Li Xi and Guo Si were killed, Duan Rong was afraid of his master. He didn''t dare to fight head-on. The most likely thing is to incite Ma Teng and Han Sui to fight


    "This is the first possibility," Jia said


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "what''s the second possibility?"


    Jia Xu said: "the second possibility is that Ma Teng and Han Sui are worried that Xiliang will step into the footsteps of Li Xi and Guo Si because of the things happened to Li Xi and Guo Si


    "Two different possibilities, different coping styles."


    "If only Ma Teng and Han sent troops with him, it would not involve Duan Lu. The LORD would mobilize his army, and only need to attack Ma Teng and Han Sui in Chencang."


    "If you have a simmer, you need to be prepared for it."


    "Because if Duan Lu was involved in this battle, when the LORD was fighting with Ma Teng and Han Sui with all his strength, Duan Lu might take the opportunity to attack our rear and make us suffer."


    Jia Xu said: "of course, on the whole, the way to deal with it is simple. In addition to attacking Ma Teng and Han Sui, in any case, we must guard against the attack from Duan Lu. "


    Zhang xiudao: "Wen he is right."


    Zhang Xiu highly agrees with Jia Xu''s analysis, which is quite incisive.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the others and said, "what else do you have to add?"


    All shook their heads.


    Jia Xu''s analysis is very comprehensive, they can not put forward a more comprehensive analysis, and there is nothing to add.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I agree with Wen he''s analysis, but I think Duan''s stew will definitely get in the way. Since the intention of the other side has been deduced, we must make corresponding preparations before dispatching troops. "


    "How can we attack Ma Teng and Han Sui? Even if there is no further information at the moment, and we don''t know the specific situation of Ma Teng and Han Sui, the general policy can be arranged first. "


    Zhang Xiu asked a question and asked people to hang a map.


    This is the map of Guanzhong.


    On the map, you can clearly see the situation near Chencang for quick analysis. When people look around, Zhang Xiu is also observing the topography near Chencang and thinking about the countermeasures.


    Li Ru''s eyes flashed with light and said, "Chencang county is lost. We will have a war with Han Sui and Ma Teng. On this premise, there are two possibilities for their arrangement. "


    "Which two possibilities?" Zhang Xiu asked


    Li Ru replied: "the first possibility is that after Ma Teng and Han Sui captured Chencang, they did not stop and continued to fight in the direction of Chang''an, intending to fight against us."


    "The second possibility is that after Ma Teng and Han Sui captured Chencang, they would no longer enter the army, but stay in place."


    "The specific situation can be known when the follow-up message is sent back."


    "The first is relatively simple, and the second is more complex."


    Li Ru said: "I believe that Han Sui and Ma Teng are strong enough to fight against the Lord. But in this war, they will not drive straight in, they will choose to garrison in Chencang county and adopt the strategy of encircling and supporting. "


    "The Lord has captured Jingzhao and youfufeng. It''s impossible to sit back and watch."


    "We must take back Chen Cang."


    "If we want to recapture Chen Cang, we are bound to send troops. If I am Ma Teng and Han Sui, the best way is to arrange an army to ambush on the way to Chencang. "


    "Once the Lord''s army arrives, it''s half ambush."


    "This is Han Sui''s common strategy."


    "Han Sui is much more cunning than Ma Teng, and he is also good at using troops. He likes to play surprise, but he doesn''t like confrontation. Therefore, Han Sui and Ma Teng will be stationed in Chencang county and take the method of half ambush. "


    Pang Tong said: "Mr. Li, if Han Sui adopts the strategy of half ambush, does it mean that Chencang county''s own forces will be weakened and we can surprise attack the rear?"


    "No way!"


    Li Ru shook his head, his eyes shining with light, and said: "Han Sui''s military strategy is real. He took the way of half ambush, and may ambush again in chencangbu. "


    "So Chen Cang itself may be empty on the surface. Once we bypass the half way ambush and attack Chencang directly, maybe once we win Chencang County, we will fall into the ambush circle of Han Sui. "


    "All around Chencang county are ambushes."


    Li Ru made a conclusion and said, "I dare to infer that Han Sui and Ma Teng are stationed in Chencang county. Then, they have two ambush points. ""First, the ambush point on the way."


    "Second, Chencang county."


    "A swaggering army may be ambushed. When we attack Chencang again, we will find that Chencang is empty, surrounded by Han Sui and Ma Teng''s ambush. "


    Li Ru said: "of course, this is a humble inference, which can not be verified for the time being."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not difficult to verify this. Soon, news will come back. "


    For Li Ru, Zhang Xiu admired him very much.


    This is a man who can strategize and win thousands of miles. He is a real wise man. It''s a terrible thing to make enemies with people like Li Ru and Jia Xu, because a lot of arrangements can''t hide Li Ru and Jia Xu.


    They can draw inferences from one instance or even infer the whole event from a tiny clue.


    Others, too, are thinking it over.


    After they pondered over it, they found that Li Ru had explained everything clearly, and there was no need to explain it again.


    Zhang Xiu saw that they were speechless and said no more: "under the current situation, it has been roughly determined. What we need to do now is to send troops first and inquire about the information along the way to determine whether it is like Li Ru''s inference. "


    Zhang xiudao: "Jia Xu!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Jia Xu replied.


    He is the Minister of the Ministry of war. The transfer of the army has to be carried out through his arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "summon Gan Ning, mobilize eight thousand fierce tiger troops to fight, and then order Chen Dao to dispatch two thousand cavalry of Langya camp and ten thousand regular troops to fight."


    Today, the conventional forces under Zhang Xiu''s command have exceeded 10000.


    This is the benefit of Zhang Xiu''s winning the hearts of the people. After a draft order, there will be countless people''s response. However, after entering the army, most of the soldiers mainly join the conventional army, so the conventional army has more troops.


    "I''ll do it


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Jia Xu understands Zhang Xiu''s arrangement and mobilizes Gan Ning and Chen Dao to fight, leaving Huang Zhong in Chang''an. Even if Duan Xun comes, there are Huang Zhong''s troops.


    Li Ru suddenly said, "my Lord, I have a suggestion for my humble position."


    Zhang xiudao: "what suggestion?"


    Li Ru replied: "Lord, you can let Huang Zhong lead the flying bear army to fight together to confuse Duan''s sight. After the army left Chang''an, Huang Zhong quietly withdrew. If Duan Lu really wants to attack Chang''an, Huang Zhong, who is hiding in Chang''an, will give Duan Lu a fatal blow. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    Li Ru''s suggestion is to the point, according to this operation, we can really explore the idea of Duan simmer.


    Zhang xiudao: "Jia Xu, do you understand?"


    "I understand


    Jia Xu bowed his hand and agreed with Li Ru''s suggestion.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong were accompanying, and the rest stayed in Chang''an."


    "Here it is


    All the people responded and quickly went to prepare.


    Zhang Xiu gets up and goes to the back yard. He has to tell Huang Yueying and Cao Jie the news. Although the two women just arrived in Chang''an, and Zhang Xiu just met, but the current situation, Zhang Xiu is helpless, he must go out.

 Chapter 283

    Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard, called Huang Yueying and Cao Jie, told Chen Cang about the attack, and said: "the war is urgent, I must send troops immediately. You are in Chang''an. Take care of your health. "


    Huang Yueying said: "the husband doesn''t have to worry about everything at home. But my husband is out there, and he is extremely careful of safety. "


    Cao Jie said: "husband, pay attention to safety."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu simply instructs the two girls. Without staying, she gets up and leaves the backyard. She puts on her armor. She asks Deng Zhan to bring her horse. Holding the overlord''s gun, she turns over to ride the horse and goes straight to the general''s camp.


    Officers and men in the army are ready.


    Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong are also in place.


    Chen Dao and Gan Ning led their respective armies.


    Huang Zhong has led the army formation, and he knows that his task is to stay behind in response to the possible surprise attack by Duan Xun. Huang Zhong is not reluctant to do this. He is fighting in the front and in the rear as well.


    Especially when the hospital is about to move to Chang''an, his children will go north with Zhang Zhongjing. At that time, he will be able to see Huang Xu and Huang Wan for the first time, which is quite good.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldiers in the array and said something loud and forceful. Finally, she said, "let''s go!"


    At the command of the army.


    Ganning led the army as the former army, moving quickly.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Zhi led the regular army and cavalry, followed by Huang Zhong.


    The army left Chang''an and went on as planned.


    ¡­¡­


    Hongnong County, Huayin county.


    This is the place where the troops are stationed.


    It''s not far from Chang''an. If you''re riding, you can easily run back and forth several times a day. Duan didn''t enter the Jingzhao area, but arranged for soldiers to inquire about the news and pay close attention to Zhang Xiu at any time.


    Outside the big tent of the Chinese army, a sentry came quickly to let the soldiers pass.


    Soon the soldiers came out to let him in. When the sentinel entered the camp and saw Duan Rong, he reported: "general, I just received the news from Chang''an. Zhang Xiu learned that Ma Teng and Han then occupied Chencang and mobilized a large army to fight. After careful investigation, our people found that Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning led their own elite to fight. In this war, Zhang Xiu put out all her strength. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    On Duan''s face, a bright smile appeared.


    At this moment, Duan is very happy.


    This time, Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Chencang County, but there was a period of simmering behind the scenes. The reason why he did so was because he knew the tragedy of Li Xi and Guo Si.


    Li Xi and Guo Si were killed alive.


    No bones.


    Zhang Xiu so against the general of the Xiliang army, so that Duan simmer is afraid. Originally, Duan''s plan was to keep the well water from the river with Zhang Xiu, so that everyone could be at peace, so it would be very good.


    The problem is that after Zhang Xiu has captured Jingzhao and youfufeng, she may attack Hongnong county at the next moment, and is bound to fight Duan Lu. In order to take the lead, Duan simmered first to persuade Ma Teng and Han Sui to send troops.


    Ma Teng and Han Sui are not satisfied with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is a junior.


    When it comes to his qualifications in the Xiliang army, Zhang Xiu is too poor. He is the younger generation of Ma Teng and Han Sui. Now Zhang Xiu''s edge will be exposed. After winning the Jingzhao area, Ma Teng and Han Sui also have pressure.


    What if Zhang Xiu wants to capture Liangzhou?


    So after receiving Duan''s letter, Ma Teng and Han Sui chose to seize Chencang county.


    Duan simmers behind the scenes, but he doesn''t really tear his face with Zhang Xiu. But he has been paying attention to Zhang Xiu''s move. Zhang Xiu''s army is going to win Chen Cang in one go.


    Just like this, Duan Weng has a chance to win Chang''an. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t do his best, Duan Wen doesn''t dare to send troops.


    "Somebody


    Section simmer directly ordered.


    A soldier came in, Duan Xu said: "call Yang Cong to discuss business."


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers got the order, they went to inform them quickly.


    After a while, Yang Cong enters the camp and bows to Duan.


    Duan Xu opened the door and said, "Ben just got the news. Zhang Xiu left Chang''an and headed for Chencang. This time, Zhang Xiu sent out her troops to transfer all the troops of Gan Ning, Chen Dao and Huang Zhong. Even if there are troops left in Chang''an, there will not be too many. "


    Yang Cong said: "what the general means is, are you ready to send troops to attack Chang''an?"


    "Yes


    Duan Xu''s eyes narrowed, and said: "before I killed Wu Xi, I courted Zhang Xiu. It was Zhang Xiu who had just entered Wuguan and had no foothold. You can use Zhang Xiu to contain Li Shi. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu not only killed Guo Si, but also won Li Shi in one go, breaking the situation in Guanzhong. "


    "Zhang Xiu monopolizes Jingzhao and youfufeng. If not curbed, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu''s next goal may be Ben Jiang. So this time, after Ma Teng and Han Sui captured Chencang, it was our chance. "


    Duan''s eyes are full of killing.Yang Cong said: "the general''s strategy of containing Zhang Xiu is proper. But Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning. He can kill Xiongnu, defeat Cao Cao, and easily exterminate Li Yu. Now he''s pouring out. Is there any cunning? "


    "No way!"


    Duan Wen answered flatly.


    However, Yang Cong frowned. Duan''s character was just like this. He was always headstrong and wanted to call him to discuss the matter, but in fact, he could not accept the admonition.


    This is what Yang Cong is worried about.


    Duan Xun noticed Yang Cong''s disapproval and said in a voice: "the truth is very simple. This time Chencang county was attacked, it was an emergency. It was the general who encouraged Ma Teng and Han Sui."


    "If Zhang Xiu is prepared, he may set an ambush in Chang''an. But in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu is in a hurry to go to Chencang. It must be a decision in a hurry. It''s impossible to consider us. "


    Duan wenduding said: "in this war, if we want to attack the rear of Zhang Xiu, we are bound to win."


    Yang Cong smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    I thought, you have decided, what else do you want me to do?


    Don''t look for it.


    But Yang Cong did not dare to say this. He is under Duan''s command. Although Duan is headstrong, he is treated well. Yang Cong is not willing to quarrel with Duan.


    Yang Cong took a deep breath and said, "in that case, the general seized the opportunity to win Chang''an. Once Chang''an is lost and Zhang Xiu''s rear area is lost, there will be Ma Teng and Han Sui before that time, and then there will be a general, so Zhang Xiu is bound to be unable to gain a foothold in Chang''an. At that time, Zhang Xiu will have to go back to Nanyang County. "


    "That''s what it is


    Duan''s eyes are full of expectation.


    Today, Cao Cao still arranges people to lobby Duan to be obedient, but Duan hasn''t responded to it all the time.


    If Duan Wen takes Jingzhao and youfufeng and turns Guanzhong to the imperial court, he will be a marquis and a general.


    That''s what we''re looking forward to.


    Duan ordered: "Yang Cong, go to mobilize the army immediately. After dark, we are quietly sending troops. Now in June, even if it''s dark at night, but with the moonlight, you can still make your way. We''ll go to Chang''an by day and by night. We''ll win Chang''an in one go. "


    "Here it is


    When Yang Cong got the order, he went to arrange it immediately.


    Duan Xun put his hand on the desk, and the middle finger of his right hand kept beating the table. His face was filled with a smile of expectation.


    In this battle, he will win.

 Chapter 284

    Chencang County, county yamen.


    Today''s county government has been occupied by Ma Teng and Han Sui. The original county magistrate was killed because he vowed not to surrender. All his family died in the war.


    Chencang county is now under the joint control of Ma Teng and Han Sui.


    In the hall.


    At the top, there are two middle-aged men.


    Although the man on the left was strong, his eyes were long and narrow, his sword eyebrows were upright, and he looked sharp and cunning, especially his thin lips were mean and ungrateful.


    This person is Han Sui.


    He is famous in Xiliang.


    It''s very powerful.


    The man sitting on the right side is Ma Teng. He is more than eight feet long, with a strong figure, a Chinese character face and a rough face. The bridge of its nose is straight and straight, towering like gall.


    His appearance is a little more loyal than Han Sui''s.


    Han Sui and Ma Teng are both warlords in Xiliang. They have their own power. They are the two most powerful people in Liangzhou.


    Han Sui and Ma Teng are also brothers.


    Han Sui is a little older and is Ma Teng''s elder brother.


    At this moment, Han Sui stroked his beard under his jaw and looked at Ma Teng, with a look of satisfaction on his face. He said with a smile, "my dear brother, we have won Chencang county this time. After Zhang Xiu''s troops, we will work hard to destroy Zhang Xiu. At that time, when you and I enter the Jingzhao and youfufeng areas, our influence will go further. "


    Ma Teng said: "it all depends on the elder brother''s plan."


    In terms of strategy, Ma Teng is much worse than Han Sui, so Ma Teng''s plan in the general direction is to let Han Sui plot. According to his own situation, he decided whether to agree with Han Sui''s plan.


    Han Sui said: "Zhang Xiu, who was our younger generation at the beginning, let the people judge Li Xi and Guo Si, and let them die in the hands of the people. We don''t have a good life without this. "


    Ma Teng said: "brother, you have a point."


    After a pause, Ma Teng said: "however, although Zhang Xiu is arrogant and arrogant, he is also good at treating Xiongnu, which is very admirable."


    Zhang Xiu killed thousands of Huns.


    Ma Teng also admired this.


    Han Sui said with a light smile, "how much does the matter of the Huns have to do with us? Dear brother, this is a troubled time. In troubled times, human life is nothing but grass. When the Huns came, they left. Why do you have to fight with them. Of course, it was Zhang Xiu who was lucky to win. "


    Ma Teng laughs and says nothing.


    Although he thought Han Sui was good at planning, he did not agree with many of Han Sui''s views.


    He has his own perception.


    In fact, Ma Teng didn''t want to attack Zhang Xiu. On the one hand, Han Sui found him, moved him with reason, understood him with emotion; on the other hand, Zhang Xiu killed Li Yi and Guo Si, showing a strong aggressiveness. Ma Teng also felt that he was in a certain danger, so he agreed to send troops.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a young man strode in.


    The young man was born with a high reputation, a broad sword eyebrow and a great general bearing.


    This man''s name is Yan Xing. He is a valiant general under Han Sui''s account.


    In history, Yan Xing finally married Han Sui''s daughter and became Han Sui''s son-in-law. But now Yan Xing is still young, just in his early twenties, and he is not old enough to marry Han Sui''s daughter.


    After Yan Xing entered, he bowed to Han Sui and Ma Teng with his fist and said, "Lord, just now, there is news from Chang''an. Zhang Xiu has already mobilized the army to leave Chang''an and go to Chencang county. According to the information reported by the spies, Zhang Xiu mobilized Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning''s troops and transferred all the elite out of Chang''an. "


    "Good!"


    Han Sui''s eyes were full of joy.


    Han Sui leaned forward slightly and said: "Zhang Xiu''s leaving Chang''an means that the rear is empty. In this way, Duan will have the opportunity to enter. "


    "And we can count on Zhang Xiu."


    "We will win this battle."


    Han Sui looked at Ma Teng and said, "my dear brother, we had worked out a policy to ambush Zhang Xiu on the way. At that time, the location was futu mountain, 30 miles northeast of Chencang county. "


    "It''s easy to lay an ambush here."


    "Moreover, it''s also a must pass for Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "On my side, I arranged for Yan Xing to lead eight thousand elite soldiers to ambush. What about you? Who is going to lead the troops


    Han Sui raised the question.


    Han Sui and Ma Teng''s plan was to ambush first, and then fight with Chencang as the center.


    These are two major principles.


    Ma Teng also agreed, he heard Han Sui''s words, without any hesitation, then said: "let Ma Xiu lead!"


    Mathew is the second son of marten, but he is his own son.


    Ma Chao is the eldest son and the common son.


    After Ma Teng claimed to be General Ma Yuan of Fubo, although he lived in Liangzhou, where the Han and Qiang people were mixed, he was infected with the Qiang people''s habit of respecting the strong, but Ma Teng always demanded himself according to the Han people''s principles at home, so he preferred Ma Xiu. Moreover, Ma Chao had excellent martial arts skills. He fought in the battlefield at a young age and beat all the Qiang people. He was invincible.In the army, Ma Chao has a high prestige.


    There are a group of soldiers who are loyal to Ma Chao. Even Ma Teng himself can''t mobilize them. Ma Teng''s heart is to train Ma Xiu to make contributions in the battlefield so that he can take charge of the army.


    Han Sui heard Ma Teng''s words, with a smile in his mouth, and didn''t say anything.


    Ma Teng''s family, he did not interfere.


    Han Sui asked, "how many soldiers does Matthew lead in the battle?"


    "Eight thousand soldiers," marten said


    "Good!"


    Han Sui fuzhang praised: "there are 16000 elite soldiers ambushing in futu mountain. When Zhang Xiu''s army arrives in this battle, he will be caught unprepared. What''s more, Zhang Xiu is used to attacking the rear. "


    "When he attacked Wei Yan, he secretly attacked Wan County, the rear of Wei Yan; when he attacked Cao Cao, he cut off Cao Cao''s back road. When they fought with Li, they also took Li''s food and grass. "


    "In this war, Zhang Xiu is bound to secretly divide her forces and then attack Chencang county."


    "After Zhang Xiu''s division, when the army arrived at futu mountain, its strength decreased. The strength of Yan Xing and Ma Xiu is enough to win the first World War. "


    "In Chencang County, my younger brother and I are in charge."


    "When the time comes, give Zhang Xiu another slap in the face."


    Han Sui looked firm in his eyes and said, "we will win this battle."


    Ma Teng said: "brother, you have a point."


    Immediately, Ma Teng got up and said, "brother, I''ll arrange it now."


    "Good!"


    Han Sui nodded.


    After Ma Teng left, Han Sui looked at Yan Xing and said, "Yan Xing, in this battle, you and Ma Xiu go to ambush Zhang Xiu''s army. I ask you to give the credit to Ma Xiu as much as possible and let him make contributions."


    "Ah


    Yan Xing was surprised when he heard about Yan.


    Although Yan Xing was also a man of outstanding intelligence, he was surprised to hear Han Sui''s words.


    What does that mean?


    For a moment, Yan Xing had not recovered.


    With a sneer in his mouth, Han Sui said, "Ma Teng doesn''t like Ma Chao. He wants to make contributions to Ma Xiu. How can he not let him get what he wants. Only when Ma Xiu has made great contributions can he compete with Ma Chao. "


    "Ma Chao is brave but not resourceful. He has always been extremely impulsive."


    "Just think, Ma Xiu has made a great contribution. How can Ma Chao not be angry? At that time, just a little provocation can trigger their internal conflicts, making Ma Teng''s son infighting. "


    "Ma Teng''s strength is not weak, and he is not an easy man."


    Han Sui said: "to defeat Ma Teng, we must wait for the strength of the Ma family to weaken, then the general will have a chance."


    "Hiss!"


    Yan Xing took a cold breath.


    He did not expect that Han Sui had begun to plan Ma Teng while planning Zhang Xiu.


    You know, Ma Teng and Han Sui are brothers.


    Yan Xing quickly adjusted his mind, with a smile on his face, praised: "the general is wise, I admire him."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Han Sui listened to the compliment, with a proud look on his face. He waved his hand and said, "you''re brave and resourceful, but you''re just a little immature. You need more experience. Let''s go down and gather our troops to fight. "


    "Here it is


    Yan Xing bowed down.


    Just his heart, but very alert.


    Han Sui can even make friends with his brothers, not to mention his subordinates.

 Chapter 285

    Zhang Xiu led the army to set out, all the way west. When the team arrived in Wugong County, Wang Yue hurried to Zhang Xiu and reported: "my Lord, I have found out about Ma Teng and Han Sui."


    With that, he handed back the latest information.


    Zhang Xiu took out the letter and read it quickly.


    When he finished browsing all the news, he immediately asked people to call Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong, saying: "the situation of Ma Teng and Han Sui has been found out."


    "After they led the army to capture Chencang County, they really didn''t advance any more. They were stationed in Chencang county. The other side''s intention, as Li Ru infers, is to prepare for the encirclement of aid, aiming at our reinforcements. "


    "Ma Teng''s troops are 20000. Han Sui also had 20000 soldiers. "


    "The other side has 40000 talents."


    Zhang Xiu solemnly said: "our army is only 20000 elite soldiers, even if we add auxiliary soldiers, it is only 20000. We don''t have any advantage in our forces. "


    Jia Xu confidently said: "Lord, although Han Sui and Ma Teng have many troops, they may not be of the same mind. What''s more, when it comes to the elite situation of the army, we have all elite soldiers in the army, which are enough to make one serve as ten. "


    Li Ru had a wise look in his eyes. He took Jia Xu''s words and said, "since the other side has a large number of troops, we will change our plan. The original plan of despicable duty was to deal with Ma Teng and Han Sui in a two pronged way, and then attack Chencang at the same time


    "Now it seems that we don''t have to have such a big appetite. We have to adopt a little strategy of cannibalizing each other."


    "The first goal is to ambush half way."


    "Deal with the ambush first, weaken the strength of Ma Teng and Han Sui, and then go to Chencang county."


    Li Ru said: "the soldiers are empty and real. According to the Lord''s way of using the army, Han thought that the LORD would surprise Chen Cang. But in this battle, the Lord changed his previous practice, focused on the ambush alone, and first solved the ambush of Ma Teng and Han Sui. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "what Wenyou said is true!"


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Li Ru''s suggestion.


    Li Ru took out the map of Chencang county from the soldiers, put it on the ground and said, "now we have arrived at Wugong County. To the west, it is Yi County, and finally we enter the boundary of Chencang county."


    "From Wugong County to Chencang, the official road is very smooth."


    "Nothing can lay an ambush."


    "Even some of the ambush sites are not the most suitable."


    Li Ru said: "after careful consideration, I chose the most suitable place for ambush, which is the futu mountain in the northeast of Chencang county. The road is between the two mountains, with dense shrubs and grass on both sides, which is the only way to Chencang. "


    "If you take other roads, the detour is too far, so you go to Chencang from futu mountain."


    "This is the best place to ambush."


    "Han Sui and Ma Teng had to lay an ambush, only in the futu mountain."


    "Especially from futu mountain to Chencang County, it''s only 30 li away. If Han then wants to send troops to help, he can also quickly dispatch troops to arrive, so that he will not be too far away to control. "


    Li Ru tossed a voice: "humble proposal, to fight with the floating Tu mountain as a stronghold."


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and Pang Tong and asked, "Wen he and Shi Yuan, what do you think?"


    Jia Xu replied: "Li Shangshu''s plan is no problem, which is in line with our current situation. As for Li Shangshu''s plan, he suggested to expand the plan, not only to ambush the army in futushan. In the case of ambushing the other side, they adopted the strategy of encircling the rescue sites, let the news leak, and then ambushed Han Sui and Ma Teng''s troops. "


    Pang Tong said: "according to the plan of Mr. Li and Mr. Jia, Han Sui''s troops in Chencang county will certainly be weakened when he plans to carry out the encirclement and aid. Can we divide our forces to attack Chencang County earlier? "


    Jia Xu shook his head and said, "if we have enough troops, we can arrange this plan."


    "The problem is, we only have 20000 people."


    "On the one hand, we need to trap the troops in futu mountain and wipe out the enemy; on the other hand, we need to arrange soldiers to ambush on the half way, which will consume too much troops."


    "If the troops are divided again, too few troops will ambush, which may lead to the failure of ambush. On the contrary, they will be defeated by Han Sui''s and Ma Teng''s troops. This is a thorny problem."


    Jia Xu said: "at the moment, we can only fight with futu mountain as a stronghold, and we can''t take other things into consideration."


    Pang Tong said, "it''s my thoughtlessness."


    In front of Jia Xu and Li Ru, Pang Tong was still a little immature, but he was happy. It''s a rare opportunity to learn from Li Ru and Jia Xu.


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, according to Wen you''s plan, attack the ambush of futu mountain."


    Zhang Xiu is also familiar with the military strategy. According to the analysis of the situation on the map, he also thinks that futu mountain is the best place for ambush.


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "if the ambush of Han Sui and Ma Teng is on the mount futu, how can they defeat the enemy?"


    "It''s very simple," Li said


    Zhang xiudao: "Wen you plan to settle down?"


    Li Ru replied: "the northwest is not like the south where there are many mountains, forests and towering trees. After all, the northwest is windy and sandy, with less rainfall and more sand and stones, so there are more bushes and weeds on the floating mountains. ""The army of Ma Teng and Han Sui had to lie in ambush."


    "Futu mountain itself stretches for only a few miles. Even though the mountain is steep, it does not cover a large area. It''s easier to deal with the ambush in the mountains, just a big fire. "


    Li Ru immediately put forward the strategy and finished the detailed plan.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said with a smile: "Wenyou''s strategy is very suitable for me. This is my favorite strategy to deal with ambushes in the mountains. Fire attack has always been the most direct. Although the fire attack is not easy to carry out, once the fire attack is successful, the whole situation will be irreversible. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu ordered: "come, call Gan Ning."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Time is not long, Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu''s side in a hurry and said: "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "now, there is a task for you to do."


    Ganning said, "please give me your orders."


    Zhang Xiu immediately said the arrangement of the fire attack on the floating mountain, and then said, "you have experience, so you can arrange things. But be careful. When you arrive, stay alert and wait for my orders. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement is indeed his most experienced. Gan Ning immediately handed over the command of the army to the deputy commander, and then mobilized one hundred soldiers, then quietly left the army and went to the direction of the floating mountain.


    After Gan Ning left, Zhang Xiu continued on her way. When Zhang Xiu entered the territory of Yi County, after half a walk, he got a message from Ganning. Ganning rushed all the way to Fudu mountain to hide.


    Zhang Xiu was relieved to learn that Gan Ning was in place.


    It''s all set!


    Zhang Xiu led the army and continued on her way. When the army left Jue county and entered Chencang County, Zhang Xiu secretly divided her troops. Three thousand soldiers led by Chen Zhi left the army and took a long detour to Chencang county. She had to go around futu mountain and behind futu mountain.


    It''s a long way to go, but it''s worth it.


    After the separation of the army, Zhang Xiu slowed down her speed and went slowly to the direction of futu mountain. Zhang Xiu can''t get on the road at full speed. If he gets on the road at full speed, when he arrives at futu mountain, the ambush is not in place, so it''s easy for him to beat grass.


    So, don''t hurry.


    Only when Zhang Xiu was close to futu mountain, the news was soon found by Ma Teng and Han Sui and sent back to futu mountain.

 Chapter 286

    Floating in the mountains.


    Yan Xing and Ma Xiu were stationed here.


    Each of them led eight thousand elite soldiers to ambush in futu mountain. There are many bushes in the mountains. All the soldiers in ambush can only squat down. Although it is inconvenient to hide in the bushes, they can only bend down to hide in order to ambush.


    The place where Ma Xiu and Yan Xing were located was an open place on the mountain.


    They waited with their backs against the tree.


    Matthew was silent.


    Although Matthew is one year younger than Ma Chao, he is more calm.


    Sitting not far away, Yan Xing thought of what Han Sui had said to him and said, "Ma Xiu, I once had a fight with Ma Chao. That guy is very good at martial arts. I''m afraid Ma Chao is the most powerful of the three brothers. "


    When Matthew heard this, a sharp color passed in his eyes.


    Immediately, it was hidden again.


    Ma Xiu said faintly: "brother, you are the best in the army. You can beat Xiliang all the time. That''s a well-known thing. Even if it''s you, Yan Xing, don''t you have to bow down in front of your elder brother. "


    Yan Xing saw that Ma Xiu''s answer was relaxed, but he carefully observed his words and found that Ma Xiu unconsciously clenched his fist. He secretly said that Han Sui was old and spicy, and he saw the flaws of the Ma family at a glance.


    The Ma family is very strong.


    Whether it''s Ma Teng, or Ma Chao, or Ma Xiu, it''s not simple.


    Ma Jiajun is also very elite.


    It''s hard to deal with.


    But Ma Teng preferred Ma Xiu and suppressed Ma Chao. The contradiction between the eldest son and the legitimate son was the biggest flaw of the Ma family.


    Yan Xing said faintly: "in terms of martial arts, you and I are not as good as Ma Chao. But when it comes to March and array, when it comes to intelligence and strategy, you are much better than ma. The problem is that the Qiang people don''t like to use strategy. They like the strong people who go straight


    "Ma Chao''s martial arts are excellent, and he can beat the Qiang people."


    "He can convince the Qiang people."


    "On the contrary, you are behind the scenes, in fact, no one knows your name."


    Yan Xing shook his head and said, "if I were you, I would not be reconciled. Therefore, this ambush against Zhang Xiu is your chance. Ma Xiu, I''ll go all out to help you in this battle with Zhang Xiu. "


    Matthew said coldly, "would you be so kind?"


    Although Han Sui and Ma Teng are sworn brothers, the Qiang people have no faith. They may become enemies one moment and the next.


    Fighting is very common.


    Ma Xiu is also wary of Han Sui.


    Yan Xing replied: "of course I don''t have any good intentions. The reason why I help you deal with Ma Chao is that I don''t like Ma Chao. When Ma Chao was 17 or 18 years old, he was disrespectful to my Lord. At that time, I tried to deal with Ma Chao. I almost killed Ma Chao, but I failed. Ma Chao and I never deal with them. If I help you, I''ll deal with him, won''t I? "


    Matthew hummed, and instead of talking, he waited.


    When Yan Xing saw this, he began to smile.


    Although Matthew didn''t show it, it can be seen that Matthew was absolutely moved.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier came running quickly.


    The soldiers came to Yan Xing and Ma Xiu and reported: "general Yan, Zhang Xiu has entered Chencang, less than 15 miles away from futu mountain. The speed of their journey is very slow. It is expected that they will arrive at futu mountain in more than an hour. "


    "Explore again!"


    Yan Xing gave an order again.


    After the sentry left, Yan Xing looked at Ma Xiu and said, "Ma Xiu, Zhang Xiu''s army is about to arrive at futu mountain. This time, it''s your chance of a lifetime. You pass on the order. Once all Zhang Xiu''s troops enter the narrow road of the valley, your soldiers will fight immediately. When you defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, I will help you to take Zhang Xiu. You can cut off Zhang Xiu''s head and ask for help. "


    "Thank you very much."


    Matthew said thanks.


    When Yan Xing saw that Ma Xiu was going to convey the order, a smile rose from the corner of his mouth, and then he gave the order.


    Matthew is calm, but he is too young after all.


    ¡­¡­


    At the foot of futu mountain.


    Close to the back of the mountain, a very steep and remote place, where there are more than 100 people.


    The soldiers led by Ganning are hiding here.


    "Rustle!"


    General Tu came to the mountain in a hurry, and there was a quick report from ten soldiers


    Gan Ning said: "explore again, try your best to get in touch with the Lord, and wait for the Lord''s order at any time."


    "Here it is


    The sentry turned and stepped down.


    Knowing that the time was coming and that it was time for action, Gan Ning mobilized his men and let them enter their respective places of action so as to burn the mountain.


    Time goes by.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu is getting closer and closer to futu mountain.When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived at the east entrance at the foot of the mountain, he saw the sentry under the command of Gan Ning, and immediately gave the order of arson. All the troops were stationed at the foot of the mountain and did not enter the narrow road in the mountain.


    When the news reached Ganning, he ordered, "let go the arrow!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered at once.


    "Whew!"


    In an instant, an arrow was launched.


    At the moment of the arrow''s launch, the sharp sound of breaking through the air came out, and the sound rang through the sky. As soon as the soldiers, who had been waiting for orders not far away, got the news, they ordered arson and fired arrows again.


    In a short period of time, all the soldiers assigned by Gan Ning set fire to the whole circle of futu mountain.


    Under the ignition of the fire oil and many dry shrubs on the mountain ground, shrubs and weeds burned one after another, like fire snakes, spreading rapidly to the surrounding areas.


    The fire is getting more and more urgent.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops stationed at the foot of the mountain, although they saw a fire burning at the foot of the mountain, did not take immediate action. They were still stationed at the foot of the mountain.


    On the mountain, the hiding place of Ma Xiu and Yan Xing.


    Yan Xing got the news that Zhang Xiu was standing still and suddenly raised his eyebrows.


    Zhang Xiu stopped moving forward. Did she see something? However, Yan Xing did not dare to act rashly. Once he tried to scare the snake, he could not ambush Zhang Xiu''s army, and all the arrangements on the mountain would be invalid.


    There is also a touch of urgency in Matthew''s eyes. He is eager to let Zhang Xiu enter the narrow road in the mountains and give him a chance to make contributions.


    Suddenly, Yan Xing''s ears moved.


    "Matthew, at the foot of the mountain, there seems to be the sound of arrows rising into the sky. Listen carefully."


    Yan Xing is good at martial arts and has a good ear and eyes. He listened, but heard.


    Matthew listened carefully, but shook his head.


    In terms of martial arts, he is far behind.


    Ma Xiu said: "this may be Zhang Xiu''s strategy of disturbing the enemy and trying out. It''s intentional. We still can''t move easily. If take action, be discovered by Zhang Xiu, so want to ambush him, impossible


    "A fart!"


    All of a sudden, Yan Xing directly burst foul language.


    When Ma Xiu heard Yan Xing''s words, he said angrily, "Yan Xing, don''t deceive people too much."


    Yan Xing said, "look around. There are thick smoke rising at the foot of the mountain. This is fire attack. It must be Zhang Xiu''s fire attack strategy. "


    "If the fire under the mountain burns or spreads, it is bound to spread to the whole floating mountain."


    "It''s not big and there''s no barrier."


    "The fire is burning. We can''t avoid it. We can only go down the mountain."


    "Zhang Xiu''s move is so vicious."


    No matter how calm Yan Xing''s eyes were, there was also a touch of anxiety in his eyes. He never thought that Zhang Xiu had judged that he was ambushing in futu mountain, and had arranged a fire attack in advance.


    Matthew was also flustered.


    When he looked around, he saw that fires were burning all around the mountain. Although it''s still half way up the mountain and there''s no fire yet, the fire will soon spread down the mountain.


    Ma Xiu said in a hurry: "Yan Xing, what should I do?"


    Yan Xing said: "what else can we do? Withdraw, retreat down the mountain. Now, while the fire hasn''t really spread, we go directly to the garrison of Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "We have more than 16000 elite soldiers."


    "Zhang Xiu''s army is only over 20000."


    "With all our strength, Zhang Xiu may not be able to win. We have a certain chance to win."


    Yan Xing''s eyes flashed a light and said: "if I take Zhang Xiu, I can catch the thief and the king. So this battle, we have a chance to win, as long as we beat Zhang Xiu, everything is still no problem


    "OK, down the mountain!"


    Matthew nodded in agreement.


    He knew that Yan Xing was good at martial arts and had the courage of many people, so he agreed with Yan Xing''s suggestion.


    That''s the only way.


    "Down the mountain!"


    Matthew gave the order directly.


    Yan Xing also immediately ordered, with his soldiers down the mountain, ready to attack Zhang Xiu''s army.

 Chapter 287

    "Crackle, crackle!"


    The fire is still burning.


    On futu mountain, many places have turned into a sea of fire. Even the green shrubs are burning rapidly under the blazing temperature of the fire. With the heavy smoke, straight into the sky.


    Fortunately, the Bush is only one person tall. Even if there is smoke rising, it will soon fly away and will not gather in the mountains. If it is in the mountains in the south, the fire is burning, and the choking smoke is hot enough to suffocate.


    Yan Xing took the soldiers down the mountain quickly.


    There was a big fire at the foot of the mountain when it was 50 steps away.


    Thanks to the way up the mountain, there are not many bushes.


    If there is a big fire, you can go down the mountain.


    "Go


    Yan Xing gave a loud order.


    After he gave the order, he took the lead and went down the mountain first. Yan Xing kept running, even if the fire was burning around him, even if the fire was burning deep in the sea of fire, Yan Xing could only bite his teeth and rush down.


    So is Matthew.


    He kept running down with the soldiers.


    At full speed, the distance of 50 steps is not far. In particular, the speed of going down the mountain was faster. Under the fast running, the time was not long. Yan Xing took the soldiers down the mountain.


    Standing at the foot of the mountain, Yan Xing took a long breath. Without delay, he ordered, "the whole army!"


    Soldiers under the command, quick array.


    At the moment, Yan Xing''s soldiers were all in a mess. They rushed out of the fire. Some people''s weapons fell off, some people''s armor fell off, and some people''s eyebrows and hair were burned


    It''s all in a mess.


    Yan Xing saw this scene and frowned.


    Is it still effective?


    Previously, when he was on the mountain, he wanted to go down the mountain to fight with Zhang Xiu while the fire was not burning. Now the soldiers have the idea to retreat, but they don''t realize it.


    Yan Xing was not indecisive. He made a quick decision and said, "withdraw, withdraw to Chencang county."


    Although Yan Xing''s martial arts are excellent, the soldiers are in a mess and their morale is damaged. They are not interested in fighting. Even if Yan Xing''s martial arts are excellent, it is difficult to turn the battlefield around and win the war.


    When Ma Xiu heard Yan Xing''s words, he agreed with Yan Xing''s arrangement and ordered him to retreat.


    Even if there were still soldiers on the mountain, they ran straight to the east entrance, ready to go back to Chencang county through the narrow road in the futu mountain.


    But when Yan Xing and his soldiers were about to arrive at the entrance to the east side of futu, he was surprised to see a large army array at the entrance.


    The leader is Zhang Xiu.


    Dressed in armour, Zhang Xiu straddled on the horse, holding a tyrant''s gun, pointed to the front and said: "come and go as you want. How can it be so easy? Everyone listen to me, kneel down and surrender, or there will be no mercy! "


    Deep voice, resounding on the battlefield.


    Yan Xing''s body was dirty. He held the spear in his hand tightly, and a light flashed in his eyes.


    He doesn''t know Zhang Xiu.


    But from Zhang Xiu''s age and clothes, plus the weapons Zhang Xiu used, Yan Xing judged Zhang Xiu''s identity.


    He had an idea in his mind.


    Zhang Xiu blocked the way, then take Zhang Xiu. As long as we win Zhang Xiu and capture the thief and the king, even if he is attacked by fire first, we will have a chance to turn the situation around.


    "Kill it!"


    Yan Xing gave the order.


    One by one, the soldiers were ordered to rush forward without hesitation.


    In Northwest China, there are many valiant soldiers, either Yan Xing''s soldiers or Ma Xiu''s soldiers. They are both Qiang and Han people. They are brave and good at fighting.


    They got the order, without any hesitation, but their eyes were belligerent and rushed forward quickly. The distance between the two sides is no more than a hundred steps. As long as they fight close, the soldiers from Liangzhou think they are sure to fight their way out.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are calm.


    In the face of the enemy''s attack, he was not at all flustered or impatient. When the distance between the two sides was shortened to about 80 steps, Zhang Xiu ordered, "Archer, let go!"


    When the order was given, the soldiers at the front retreated, and the archers quickly stepped forward, bowing their arrows.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows flew out of the bowstring, pierced the air, hung with a sharp howl, and crossed the air in arcs. Then, all the bows and arrows fell into Yan Xing''s army like rain.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sound of bows and arrows piercing into the flesh and blood was heard.


    Screams, one after another.


    One by one, Liangzhou soldiers fell to the ground.


    Rao is so. The Xiliang army headed by Yan Xing and Ma Xiu is still brave and fearless of death.


    This is the strength of the Xiliang army.


    The soldiers in the frontier area are fierce in fighting with heaven, earth and people. Even if they encounter difficulties, they are still desperate to attack.Even if there is a bow and arrow shooting, the distance between the two sides is still a little closer.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    Forty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to 40 steps, Zhang Xiu raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth and ordered again: "bow and crossbow, let go!"


    The order was given. In front of the archers, another 200 archers were in position.


    The crossbow is direct, powerful and fast. In a short distance, the power of the crossbow is enough to penetrate the body of the soldiers, and then continue to move forward, continuously penetrating the bodies of the soldiers.


    This is the power of the crossbow.


    "Bang! Bang


    A bow and crossbow of the machine wide buckle move, a foot long crossbow, hanging roaring sound, fast shot out.


    Two hundred crossbows and arrows broke through the air and shot at each other, forming a net of death in the air, covering the soldiers of the Xiliang army who rushed forward.


    Another dull sound came out, and a lot of crossbows and arrows were shot into the bodies of the soldiers of the Xiliang army. These crossbows and arrows run through the soldiers in the front row. Although their strength is weakened, they are still moving forward.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    Waves of crossbows and arrows shot out, and Yan Xing''s soldiers were seriously injured.


    Yan Xing is angry now.


    He didn''t expect that he was here to ambush Zhang Xiu. In turn, he became Zhang Xiu to ambush him. Nowadays, his soldiers are constantly dying under the bow and arrow.


    Yan Xing roughly estimated that a hundred paces away, his soldiers lost at least thousands of people.


    Even more.


    But there''s no way.


    Yan Xing can only rush forward quickly.


    The soldiers under Yan Xing and Ma Xiu kept rushing forward. Although the road is hard, but one by one Xiliang Army soldiers, biting their teeth, with the flesh and blood of the body, killed a bloody road out.


    The distance between the two sides is less than ten steps.


    Archer and crossbow hand back, Zhang Xiu eyes is more sharp, again ordered: "kill!"


    All soldiers, get out quickly.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Yan Xing. Although Zhang Xiu didn''t know Yan Xing, she also noticed the previous situation of bows and arrows. The rest of the soldiers of the Xiliang army were shot and killed one after another. Only Yan Xing kept waving his spear, swung away the bows and arrows, and took the soldiers forward.


    Such people are not simple.


    He must be the chief General of the Xiliang army.


    At this time, Yan Xing also looked at Zhang Xiu and killed her in the direction of Zhang Xiu.


    Four eyes are opposite, each has a chance to kill.


    "Kill


    Yan Xing drank and waved his long spear in the air to kill the soldiers in front of him.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she immediately killed her horse. He saw countless soldiers of the Xiliang army break through. When he entered the battlefield, he was invincible with his overlord''s gun. All the Liangzhou soldiers in front of Zhang Xiu were killed.


    In the twinkling of an eye, they met.


    "Get off the horse!"


    Yan Xing''s spear shook and stabbed Zhang Xiu''s horse. He didn''t fight with Zhang Xiu, because he didn''t have a fighting horse. He suffered the most when he fought with Zhang Xiu on the ground.


    First of all, kill Zhang Xiu''s horse.


    Let Zhang Xiu come down from the war horse, he has the chance to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu swept away with a single shot and opened Yan''s spear. Although Zhang Xiu has a certain advantage in the war horse, there are many obstacles when he meets Yan Xing, so the war horse is easy to be targeted.


    At the moment of opening Yan Xing''s spear, Zhang Xiu turned over from his horse and landed on the ground, holding the gun close to Yan Xing.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Yan Xing saw Zhang Xiu take the initiative to dismount, and a happy look appeared in his eyes.


    This is his chance.


    Take Zhang Xiu, you can turn the situation of this war. The sharp spear, shaking in the air, came to Zhang Xiu''s body in an instant. But see Zhang Xiu not impatient, Overlord gun out, a gun block spear.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu''s spear stirred, under the powerful force, Yan Xing''s spear moved with it.


    Yan Xing is very powerful.


    But Yan Xing was much weaker in front of Zhang Xiu.


    The spear was stirred in the air by the spear, but it couldn''t be pulled back for a moment. Under the stirring of the long gun, after three circles in the air, Zhang Xiu suddenly takes the move, which is to bully her body.


    This moment of Zhang Xiu, right hand gun, left hand fist, big fist hard hit.


    "Pa!"


    A left hook punch hit Yan Xing''s left temple.


    Under the impact of the fierce force, Yan Xing snorted, and felt dizzy in front of him.


    He was even more stunned.


    How can Zhang Xiu use fists?


    Didn''t Zhang Xiu use a gun?


    Yan Xing has heard about Zhang Xiu and knows that Zhang Xiu''s marksmanship is outstanding. But when he fights with Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t expect that after Zhang Xiu gets close to him, he abandons the competition in shooting skills and makes an old fist.Yan Xing vertigo moment, Zhang Xiu right hand again force, strength soared, Overlord gun ruthlessly swept out. When Yan Xing was unprepared, the impact of the overlord''s gun immediately knocked the spear away.


    Zhang Xiu a step back, and Yan Xing open a step away, Overlord gun swing down.


    "Bang!"


    Goose egg thick gun, hit Yan Xing''s shoulder.


    "Ah


    Yan Xing snorted. He lost his weight and fell to the ground.


    This shot down, Zhang Xiu also converged most of the strength. If it''s a full swing, the power of one shot is enough to break Yan Xing''s shoulder bone completely and paralyze him.


    "Come on, take it!"


    Zhang Xiu orders the soldiers to take down Yan Xing. Her eyes turn and fall on Ma Xiu.

 Chapter 288

    He didn''t know Matthew.


    But Matthew''s side, gathered a large number of soldiers to protect. This is where there is no silver three hundred Liang, that is, Zhang Xiu does not know the identity of Ma Xiu, but also knows that Ma Xiu''s identity is not simple.


    Anyway, it''s a big fish.


    This is direct cognition.


    Zhang Xiu quickly turned over and got on the horse. Holding the overlord gun, she drove the horse to the direction of Ma Xiu. However, the Liangzhou soldiers who had been killed were brave and fearless of death, so that Zhang Xiu could not break through for a while.


    Zhang Xiu constantly stabbed out the overlord gun, saw a pengpeng blood splashing out in the air, one by one Xiliang soldiers were killed.


    In the blink of an eye, there were more than ten corpses around Zhang Xiu.


    This kind of killing, even the soldiers of Xiliang army, were killed with fear. In addition to Zhang Xiu''s constant killing, the news of Yan Xing''s killing has spread among Han Sui''s Xiliang army.


    Yan Rui lost all his strength and lost his regiment.


    The Liangzhou soldiers began to rout.


    "Kill


    At the same time, in the rear of the army where Mathieu lived in futushan, there was another cry of killing. Ganning has mobilized soldiers from the rear to cut off the retreat of Liangzhou soldiers.


    The two sides attacked each other and killed each other constantly.


    Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu''s subordinates have already taken advantage.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t block the road. She mobilized her soldiers to block Ma Xiu and his party, and let the soldiers loosen a gap on the other side to let a small number of Xiliang soldiers break through.


    This is on purpose!


    After releasing a small number of Xiliang soldiers, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered them to encircle and kill the Xiliang army at the foot of futu mountain.


    The fighting continues.


    Even if the Xiliang army is brave and good at fighting, it is a rebellious and fierce generation. But in the current situation, one by one, they are trapped and become a battle of the trapped animals. In addition, those who have just escaped from the mountain are becoming weaker and weaker, and they are as brave as before.


    More and more people are killed and injured.


    After fighting for a while, Zhang Xiu saw that there were fewer soldiers in front of him. Seeing that the soldiers around him were weakened, he immediately patted the horse on the back and quickly drove the horse forward. Where the overlord gun passes, it is invincible.


    Those who block will die!


    In the case of the collapse of the morale of the army, especially the Liangzhou soldiers saw Zhang Xiu''s fierce, have to avoid, unexpectedly is no longer resist, no longer the previous dense resist Zhang Xiu situation.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu came to Ma Xiu.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung up and down, and the barrel of the gun fell on a soldier''s head. With a bang, his head broke like a watermelon, and his red and white head splashed out and dyed the ground red.


    The soldier fell to the ground.


    The overlord spear stabbed out unceasingly, passed place, one by one protects in the horse Xiu nearby soldier, is killed unceasingly.


    "Second young master, run away!"


    Protect Matthew''s bodyguard, give a loud order.


    They are all soldiers trained by marten. They are brave and good at fighting. They are not afraid of death. At this moment, when it comes to Matthew''s life, everyone is very nervous.


    Matthew looked around.


    All around are Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    The front and back roads were blocked, and there was no way to escape.


    Matthew clenched his sword. For a moment, he didn''t know where to run. Just because of this short delay, Zhang Xiu has killed two guards of Ma Xiu and killed them in front of him.


    "Whew!"


    The overlord''s gun broke through and went straight in front of Matthew.


    One shot to the heart.


    Matthew quickly sidestepped to avoid, his sword in his hand quickly cut off.


    "Dang!"


    The blade of the sword hit the barrel of the gun, and sparks splashed.


    Under the strength of anti shock, Matthew was caught off guard, and his palm was numb and painful.


    "Hiss!"


    Matthew took a cool breath.


    His face showed a look of horror, the strength of this embroidery how so big. You know, Ma Xiu and Ma Chao have also played each other. He knows Ma Chao''s strength and strength.


    Zhang Xiu is more powerful than Ma Chao.


    Before Matthew can react, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is sweeping.


    In a hurry, Matthew raised his sword. He was under the horse, while Zhang Xiu was on the horse. With the power of the overlord gun, the overlord gun knocked the sword away.


    Even with the delay of the long sword, the overlord gun continued to move forward, and in the twinkling of an eye, it came to Matthew''s body.


    "Bang!"


    The overlord gun hit Matthew in the chest.


    "Ah


    The heartbreaking pain came from Matthew''s mouth. His tall and strong body, no longer stable, straight back to fly out, suddenly fell to the ground.


    "Take it!"


    Zhang Xiu hit Ma Xiu with one shot and ordered immediately.


    Several soldiers came forward and tied Matthew up directly.Zhang Xiu carried a gun to kill back and forth, in the killing time, also began to shout: "those who fall do not kill!"


    At this time, many Ma''s soldiers saw that Ma Xiu was captured, and Yan Xing''s soldiers were constantly slaughtered. When they heard the voice of Zhang Xiu''s surrender, they all gave up their resistance and quickly knelt down to surrender.


    There are fewer and fewer soldiers to resist.


    In less than half an hour, the war was over.


    On the battlefield, a corpse was left.


    Countless soldiers have been captured.


    Zhang Xiu asked Ganning to count the battlefield, and more than half an hour later, all the war was over.


    Gan Ning, with an excited look on his face, said happily: "Lord, we have won this battle. We captured 10000 Liangzhou soldiers. Besides, they captured Ma Xiu and Yan Xing, who are important figures. "


    Zhang Xiu was surprised and asked, "did Yan Xing and Ma Xiu really get captured?"


    Although Zhang Xiu has never met the two, she knows the news. Yan Xing is the most valued person of Han Sui, and even relies on him as a counselor; Ma Xiu is Ma Teng''s son, and Ma Teng''s favorite son.


    These are all important people.


    The capture of these two people, and later Ma Teng, Han Sui confrontation, for Zhang Xiu, it is extremely advantageous.


    Zhang Xiu ordered to rest in place for the time being


    now the floating mountain is burning into a sea of fire, and the narrow road between the two mountains is covered with smoke and dust, so it can''t pass at all. The soldiers can only rest for a while, and then cross the narrow road after the fire goes out.


    Now it''s late in the evening, and it''s getting dark. It''s not good for driving.


    The army is resting in place.


    The soldiers quickly built a camp for Zhang Xiu to rest.


    Zhang Xiu sat in the camp and arranged for the soldiers to bring Yan Xing. When he saw Yan Xing, he was surprised. He didn''t expect that Yan Xing was the first one he defeated.


    Zhang Xiu knew that Yan Xing was talented and could be relied on by Han Sui as a counselor. Even when he was against Cao Cao, Han Sui forced Yan Xing to marry his daughter in order to stay.


    It''s good for such a person to surrender.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Yan Xing and doesn''t beat around the bush. She asks in a deep voice, "Yan Xing, are you willing to submit to the general?"


    Yan Xing shook his head and said, "no!"


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Yan Xing explained: "I still have an old mother in Liangzhou. If I submit to you, my old mother''s life will not be protected. Liangzhou is the home of Han Sui. You can''t kill him. I can''t risk my mother''s life for my own


    For Yan Xing, he was captured and became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. If he was alone, he could submit to Zhang Xiu. After all, Xiliang worships the strong, and it''s not a shame to follow Zhang Xiu.


    The problem is that there is an old mother in his family.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Yan Xing''s words, she laughed and said, "it''s not difficult. I will arrange someone to sneak into Liangzhou and bring your mother back. In this way, are you willing to submit to the general? "


    "Yes!"


    Yan Xing answered without hesitation.


    If the old mother could be safe, he would. What''s more, Yan Xing was clear about Han Sui''s temperament. Han Sui was capricious, and he valued interests most, without any human feelings.


    Follow such a person, sooner or later be abandoned as a chess piece. He is willing to meet Zhang Xiu''s solicitation.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, you stay in the army."


    "Here it is


    Yan Xing responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu called for the soldiers and took Yan Xing to retreat. He didn''t announce Yan Xing''s surrender order to the public. Once the news comes out, Han Sui may be bad for Yan Xing''s family.


    Keep it a secret for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu meets Yan Xing, but she doesn''t plan to see Ma Xiu. Matthew is Marten''s son. It''s meaningless to surrender him.

 Chapter 289

    In the early hours of the morning, the night is full-bodied.


    The bright moonlight makes the whole Chencang County seem to be shrouded in a cool light.


    Outside Chencang County, on the official road.


    A team of soldiers, running fast. These soldiers, all in a mess, were out of breath. This group of soldiers, the number of about 300 people, disheveled, hair brown, eyes are covered with blood.


    These are the soldiers who escaped.


    There are soldiers under Yan Xing.


    There are also soldiers under Matthew.


    As for Ma Xiu, the leader was Duan Yi, a partial general in Ma Teng''s army. Yiduan Yi''s official position is not the most important general in Ma Teng''s army, but his official position is the largest in the army he escaped from. Duan Yi came to the tower, shouting: "open the gate, open the gate quickly, let us into the city."


    The cry awakened the garrison on the upper floor of the city.


    Seeing this, the soldiers stationed on the upper floor of the city became nervous one by one. They stretched their torches out of the city and looked at the situation under the city carefully. They dare not open the gate at will for fear of accidents.


    But when some soldiers returned, the soldiers in the garrison did not dare to delay and reported to the police quickly.


    In a short time, the general stationed at the gate came. When he saw the situation of the city downstairs, he looked at it with some worry. In the distance, he thought in his heart whether it would be deceiving the city.


    He had this worry, so he asked, "what''s the matter with you?"


    Duan Yi said: "let''s go into the city. I want to see General Ma. This ambush in futu mountain was destroyed by Zhang Xiu."


    Brush!


    The general in the city changed greatly.


    It''s a serious situation.


    "Wait!"


    The general who was stationed at the gate of the city was also cautious. He took the troops stationed on the top of the city down to the city and lined up in the city to avoid cheating. Then, let the soldiers open the gate and let Duan Yi enter the city.


    After Duan Yi and others entered the city, the general stationed at the gate closed the gate.


    Duan Yi is familiar with the situation.


    He took the men straight to the barracks.


    It''s late at night, and the gate of the camp is quiet, but there are soldiers stationed. No matter Han Sui or Ma Teng, they have already had an early rest. When Duan Yi''s condition is reported to Ma Teng, Ma Teng immediately summons Duan Yi.


    Ma Teng''s face was rough, but now his simple, honest and rough face was full of worry. He asked: "what a short ambush, it failed. What''s going on? "


    Duan Yi didn''t dare to hide it, and immediately explained: "report back to the general, the second young master led us to ambush on the futu mountain, ready to fight when Zhang Xiu''s army arrived at the futu mountain and crossed the road at the foot of the futu mountain."


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu came."


    "But when Zhang Xiu''s army arrived at the entrance to the east of futu mountain, it stopped. At this time, a fire broke out at the foot of the whole futu mountain. "


    "In a short time, the whole floating mountain turned into a sea of fire."


    In Duan Yi''s eyes, a touch of panic appeared, and his face was still a look of lingering fear. He continued: "at that time, Yan Xing and the second son decided not to ambush Zhang Xiu any more and led us down the mountain to break through."


    "We just went down the mountain and met Zhang Xiu''s obstruction and ambush at the foot of the mountain."


    "As for the second young master, because he was not taken down for the time being under the protection of the pro guards, he led us to break through. It''s just that there are too many people on the battlefield and the situation is complicated. We are soon dispersed. "


    Duan Yi said: "our group of soldiers rushed out, but I don''t know whether the second young master finally broke out."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Ma Teng heard that and slapped him on the desk.


    His eyes were full of anger.


    A good ambush turned out to be a reverse ambush, and Zhang Xiu was the one who ambushed him.


    It''s disgusting!


    In particular, Matthew is in a tight encirclement. Matthew is his own son. He is calm and gentle. He is Ma Teng''s favorite son. Ma Teng has made preparations to gradually let Ma Xiu take charge of military power.


    Now, Matthew doesn''t know his life or death.


    In case Matthew is killed in the chaos


    Think of here, Ma Teng immediately hit a shiver, in the heart incomparable worry.


    Ma Teng said, "come on


    A soldier enters inside, Ma Teng orders a way: "ask Ma Chao to come to discuss business."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Just after the soldiers left, a soldier came to report: "general, General Han Sui asked to see you."


    "Please


    Ma Teng gave an order.


    After a while, Han Sui rushed into the camp. At the moment, his cold face was full of dignified expression, and he said, "I''ve heard about nephew Ma Xiuxian. Yan Xing, under my command, also knows nothing about life and death. "


    Ma Teng clenched his fist and said eagerly: "brother, I''ve sent someone to inform Ma Chao and let him come to discuss business. Next, I''m going to mobilize the army to go to futu mountain to rescue Xiu''er. You, also quickly mobilize the army, with me to save Yan Xing. Time is urgent and cannot be delayed. ""No, I can''t!"


    Han Sui shook his head and answered.


    Han Sui''s eyes were full of calm expression. He threw the ground and said in a voice: "brother, according to the description of the soldiers, today''s futu mountain has turned into a sea of fire."


    "All the soldiers are ambushed, our people, that is sure to lose."


    "That''s for sure."


    "Under this premise, I think there are two results."


    "Yanchao will go back to Machang County, and the first soldiers we need to escape are Chen Chao."


    "Second, if they are trapped in a tight encirclement and unable to withdraw, it will be in Zhang Xiu''s hands by this time. Even if we send troops to futu mountain, it will not help


    Han Sui said, "whether we send troops or not now has little influence."


    "For us, if we send troops now, it will easily lead to the emptiness of Chencang county. Once we leave, Chencang county is attacked and sunk again, and we have no way to go back, which means that we have been taken out of the rear. "


    "It''s extremely terrifying."


    "I came to you in a hurry to persuade you not to be impulsive."


    "Even if Ma Xiu and Yan Xing were defeated, you and I each had more than 10000 elites. It was more than enough to garrison Chencang county. If Zhang Xiu wants to capture Chencang, he can''t succeed without thirty or fifty thousand troops. "


    Han Sui said: "as long as we delay, Zhang Xiu will retreat."


    When Ma Teng heard Han Sui''s indifferent words, he immediately became angry and said, "Han Sui, it''s your business that you don''t rescue Yan Xing. Your heart is as cold as iron. That''s your business. If you don''t send troops, that''s your business. But I, marten, have to help Hugh. That''s my son. Something happened to him. I have to go. If you don''t send troops, leave. Don''t get in the way here. "


    Han Sui saw that Ma Teng didn''t know what to do, and his expression cooled down. He said, "Ma Teng, you will regret it."


    "I don''t regret it!"


    Ma Teng made a firm answer.


    Han Sui''s face was full of disdain and regret. Ma Teng, who is so energetic, can hardly achieve great things. But he can''t stop Ma Teng, big sleeve a whisk, scold a way: "common son is not enough with it plan!"


    He turned and left.


    As soon as Han Sui left, Ma Chao followed him.


    Ma Chao is tall and straight, his face is like jade crown, his eyes are like meteors, his body is tiger, and his arms are ape, which gives us a very strong feeling. Although Ma Chao is only in his early twenties, he has begun to grow whiskers under his jaw, which makes him feel precocious.


    When he entered the camp, he saw Ma Teng, his expression was very flat, and he said, "father, what''s the matter?"


    Ma Teng said, "immediately mobilize all your cavalry and follow me to mount futu."


    Ma Chao said: "why?"


    Ma Chao is extremely dissatisfied with Ma Teng''s arrangement for Ma Xiu to fight. Because it is clear that Ma Teng wants to let Ma Xiu make contributions so that he can compete with him.


    Now Ma Teng let him go to futu mountain without saying a word. It must be something wrong with Ma Xiu.


    Ma Teng said: "the ambush of futu mountain was defeated. Your second brother was surrounded by many people. Now, we have to go to the rescue. "


    Immediately, Ma Teng said about Duan Yi''s report.


    "No!"


    Ma Chao didn''t even think about it and refused.


    "Rebellious son, do you really not go?" Ma Teng''s face was cold at the moment. Looking at the horse, his arms were blue, and he couldn''t help it.


    Ma Chao raised his head and said angrily, "why, is father going to do it again? Yes, you can. Anyway, my Ma Chao was born with rough skin and thick meat, which is resistant to beating. Since I was a child, you treated me like this. I''m used to it. "


    "You..."


    Ma Teng was very angry.


    He didn''t expect Ma Chao to be so uncooperative at this time.


    Ma Chao continued: "everyone knows that father dotes on his second brother. But the current situation, since the second younger brother has been trapped, the biggest possibility is that the second younger brother was won by Zhang Xiu. What''s the point of going for help now? It''s better to stay in Chencang. "


    Ma Teng was so angry that his whole body trembled slightly. He said angrily, "that''s your second brother, you bastard!"


    "Second brother?"


    Ma Chao looked scornful and gritted his teeth: "Ma Xiu always regards himself as his own son. When do you regard Ma Chao as my elder brother? When did my father look me in the eye. All I have now is what I put together and got from the battlefield. What about the second brother? He doesn''t need to do anything, just have his father''s arrangement. He''s your son, just like me. Why is he so lucky? "


    "You son of a bitch!"


    The horse puffed out.


    "Pa!"


    The slap was clear and loud, coming from the tent.


    Ma Chao''s handsome and angular face left a bright red five fingerprints.


    Ma Chao gave a sad smile, shrugged and said: "fight, I don''t care. Anyway, you are my father. If you want to beat me, I can''t say anything. But it''s impossible for me to send troops. The four thousand excellent cavalry under Ma Chao''s command can''t move a soldier or a soldier! ""You..."


    Ma Teng was so angry again that he roared, "get out of here, get out of here!"


    Ma Chao flicks his big sleeve and turns to leave.


    Just Ma Chao left the back, a little more lonely and rickets. He has been trying to show himself since childhood, hoping to get Ma Teng''s respect and recognition. The more powerful he is, the more he makes Ma Teng feel embarrassed.


    Because he blocked Matthew''s way.


    Ma Chao''s heart is full of resentment.


    Ma Teng looked at Ma Chao''s back and said: "Ma Chao, if you go out of this camp, you will not be my son."


    Ma is in shape.


    He turned around and looked at Ma Teng, with a touch of nostalgia in his eyes.


    Ma Teng''s face brightened.


    Did Ma Chao change his mind? Just when Ma Teng''s heart was full of hope, he saw that Ma Chao''s face was solemn, his hands closed and bowed respectfully to Ma Teng.


    Then Ma Chao turned around and left without looking back.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Ma Teng''s face turned red with anger.


    He never thought that Ma Chao would make such an extreme move.


    Damn it.


    After Ma Teng''s anger, he had nothing to do with Ma Chao. Today''s Ma Chao is invincible with 4000 elite riders. He is an important force that Ma Teng urgently needs. His strength is very strong, and Ma Teng can''t help it.


    Moreover, Ma Teng can''t really fight with Ma Chao, so he can only let Ma Chao''s strength expand. Ma Teng couldn''t persuade Ma Chao to send troops, so he had to send orders and mobilize his soldiers to leave Chencang County overnight and go to futu mountain.

 Chapter 290

    On a cold night, the moon is like a disk.


    Under the bright moonlight, the sound of rumbling footsteps sounded on the official road.


    The army led by Ma Teng rushed all the way.


    Ma Teng hoped that Han Sui would rescue Ma Xiu, but there was no support from Han Sui or assistance from Ma Chao. In desperation, Ma Teng could only mobilize his four thousand elite riders to rush to futu mountain overnight.


    Time is pressing. If all the infantry rush to help, when they arrive, everything will be cold. They can''t rush to help at all. They can only be cavalry. But most of Ma Teng''s cavalry were mainly in Ma Chao''s hands.


    Ma Chao doesn''t send troops. Ma Teng can mobilize only 4000 people. However, Ma Teng was not stupid. He mobilized cavalry to go first, but also arranged infantry in the back.


    Two thousand foot soldiers followed to support marten. Even if Ma Teng is in trouble, there are infantry in the rear.


    "Come on, give me a little faster."


    Maarten gave a loud order.


    Four thousand elite riding on the official road, fast on the road.


    It''s more than 30 Li from Chencang county to futu mountain. The road is flat, so it''s easy to catch up.


    After Ma Teng sent out his troops, the soldiers who were lurking on the official road outside the city found out and drove the horse back quickly.


    Sentry quickly on the way, first step back to Chen to the location of the ambush. Chen''s ambush was in the middle of futu mountain and Chencang county. He had 3000 soldiers under his command, 1000 cavalry of Langya battalion and 2000 infantry.


    This is not a weak force.


    At the beginning, Chen arrived by a detour.


    Only in this way can we avoid the spies of Han Sui and Ma Chao.


    The sentry came to Chen Dao and reported: "general, a cavalry came quickly in the direction of Chencang county. Because it was dark, we couldn''t find out who led the army. We only knew that the other side had more than 4000 elite riders. In addition, behind the cavalry, there were two thousand foot soldiers, all fighting in the direction of futu mountain


    Chen Dao raised his eyebrows and asked, "are there only 6000 people?"


    Only six thousand people came to the rescue. Chen Dao felt that something was wrong. It is reasonable to say that when the news of the defeat of Ma Xiu and Yan Xing comes back, Han Sui and Ma Teng should come together to rescue, at least with tens of thousands of people.


    Not so few people.


    The sentinel, with a determined look, replied, "to the general, there are only 6000 people. We have not found the rest."


    "Explore again!"


    Chen Dao gave an order.


    "Here it is


    The sentry''s on the move. Get out of here.


    After thinking about it for a while, Chen Dao couldn''t understand the reason. However, for Chen Dao, this does not affect the overall situation. Because after Zhang Xiu''s army had passed through the mountain, they had sent him an order that he didn''t have to attack for the time being and let the reinforcements go.


    Zhang xiulai ambushes the reinforcements, and Chen Zhi is responsible for cutting off the rear road and entering from the rear.


    Chen Dao didn''t understand. He immediately called for the sentry to fly to futu mountain. He reported the news to Zhang Xiu, who decided. When the sentry arrived at futu mountain, it had already passed Yinshi.


    The sentinel passed through the soldiers and soon saw Zhang Xiu. He reported: "general Qi, there is news from Chencang county that 6000 elite soldiers are coming to futu mountain. Among them, 4000 elite riders are in the front and 2000 infantry are in the back. "


    Zhang Xiu''s first reaction was to ask, "are there only six thousand people?"


    "Yes


    The sentry nodded.


    Zhang Xiu frowned, carefully pondered it over, and a smile rose from the corner of her mouth. He knew Han Sui''s character and disposition. Although he was good at military science, he was always cunning and selfish.


    When the situation of futushan is reported back, Han Sui must know that Yan Xing is in trouble, or even will be taken down.


    If Yan Xing is taken, Han Sui''s rescue is useless.


    If Yan Xing escapes, he doesn''t need to be rescued by Han Sui.


    Han Sui probably didn''t send troops.


    Only Ma Teng, because his son is in trouble, loves his son so much that he can fly to the rescue all night.


    After Zhang Xiu knew it, she immediately looked at the sentry and said, "send an order to Chen Dao to ambush the last two thousand infantry. He doesn''t need a cavalry


    "Here it is


    When the sentry got the order, he immediately stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu made a deduction for some time. At this time, it is very likely that Ma Teng''s cavalry has passed Chen''s ambush and is coming to the position of futu mountain.


    After all, cavalry is fast.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "come, call Gan Ning."


    When the soldiers outside the camp got the order, they gave a reply and quickly conveyed the order. After a short time, Gan Ning came to the big account of the Chinese Army happily. He looked excited and asked, "Lord, is there any news back?"


    "Yes


    Zhang xiudao said: "as soon as we got the news, Han did not send reinforcements. Only Ma Teng led 6000 elite soldiers to rescue Ma Xiu. Marten''s four thousand cavalry are in the front and two thousand infantry are in the back. The cavalry is not far from futu mountain. You immediately mobilize the soldiers to take their positions. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning De Ling, get ready quickly.


    Zhang Xiu also asked Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others to stay in the barracks, while he left the barracks on horseback with his armor on top and went to the ambush site set by the army.To deal with marten, we must choose the right place.


    Although there is no suitable place near futu mountain, there is no way to deal with cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is rapidly preparing.


    Time goes by little.


    The night deepened.


    The moon at night has become a remnant moon, no longer hanging in the sky like a disk. On the official road leading to futu mountain, the ground vibrated, and a rumbling sound came from the distance.


    Shouts, one after another.


    The horses were neighing all the time.


    Coupled with the sound of horses trampling on the ground, the whole scene is magnificent and powerful.


    This is the 4000 elite soldiers led by Ma Teng.


    He rushed all the way through the night. On the way, his soldiers did not rest for a moment. Thanks to a torch burning all the way to dispel the darkness, but also familiar with this section of the road, in order to quickly go.


    "Fast, faster, we''ll be at futu mountain soon."


    Marten continues to order.


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes, expecting his son Matthew to escape. Even if he can''t escape, he will lead the remaining soldiers to hide until he comes to the rescue.


    This is Marten''s idea.


    Ma Teng led his troops on the road quickly. The closer he got to futu mountain, the more nervous he was.


    After all, Hugh''s life is involved.


    "General, let''s get close to futu mountain. Now it''s only seven or eight miles away from futu mountain. Now, do you want to reduce the speed and give the soldiers buffer time


    The deputy general who followed Ma Teng made suggestions.


    After all, fudushan was taken by Zhang Xiu.


    Ma Teng shook his reins and continued on his way. While he was on his way, Ma Teng said in a loud voice: "you don''t have to stop. The mountain is bare and scorched. There can be no ambush. The road we went here was smooth and not easy to be ambushed. No matter how much, go directly to the camp where Zhang Xiu is stationed to see what the situation is. "


    "Here it is


    Deputy general Deling had a little worry on his face.


    I''m afraid of what''s going on.


    Three miles in front of Ma Teng is the foot of the mountain on the west side of futu. The mountain is bare, and the foot of the mountain is flat and open.


    At this moment, the soldiers led by Gan Ning are here.


    Gan Ning didn''t hide in the dark. He led his troops to guard the official road leading to futu mountain.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, Ganning heard a voice coming from a distance.


    When Gan Ning heard this, he was inspired and ordered: "all the troops, line up!"


    After him, there were 3000 elite soldiers in the array, which was a square array of spears. In fact, there was no place to ambush cavalry here, so Ganning mobilized soldiers to form a long spear array.


    As long as the soldiers can hold on, the cavalry will find their own way to death.


    Moreover, it is not just Ganning who fights alone.


    There''s the rest of the army.


    Time is not long, but see the official road in the distance, already red fire flash. A torch crackled in the wind, constantly burning, dispelling the darkness.


    Here comes Marten''s cavalry.

 Chapter 291

    Ma Teng led the army and went on the road quickly.


    When the front cavalry reported that there was a spear array in front of him, Ma Teng knew that it was Zhang Xiu''s soldiers who stopped him. If we want to get through the mountain, we must solve this army first, otherwise it is difficult to enter the mountain.


    "Show me the enemy in front, kill them and kill them all."


    Marten gave a loud order.


    At the same time, Ma Teng''s cavalry began to draw bows and arrows as they ran.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bow and arrow, continuous shooting.


    Arrows, like raindrops, passed in the air. Thousands of dense bows and arrows, with sharp whistling sound, came to Ganning and his soldiers in a twinkling of an eye.


    Gan Ning gave the order to resist, and each Spearman stirred his spear. I saw the long gun stirring in the air, but all the bows and arrows falling towards the square array immediately lost their sight and weakened their strength under the stirring of the long gun.


    Even if some soldiers were injured, the impact was small.


    Long gun array, as before!


    By this time, the cavalry was getting closer and closer, less than 80 steps.


    "Shield up!"


    Ganning gave the order again.


    But the soldiers in the front row quickly raised their shields and stood on the ground to form an iron wall. The shield is inlaid on both sides, and the steel wall has been built in front of the cavalry.


    In the middle of the ground and the shield, and at the top of the shield, a spear advanced at an angle of 45 degrees.


    In the light of the fire, the sharp tip of the gun shines with a cold light.


    War is imminent.


    although there are still bows and arrows coming, it can not affect the whole square array. In the twinkling of an eye, the distance between the two sides is less than 50 steps.


    "Kill


    Marten gave a loud order.


    He was trying his best to roar at the moment, with a ferocious look on his slightly honest cheek and a strong sense of killing in his eyes.


    He wants to kill Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    He wants to take Zhang Xiu.


    He wants Zhang Xiu to regret it.


    Ma Teng''s cavalry, the most elite cavalry in the army, is used to hunting and fighting on the battlefield. The soldiers were rebellious, fierce, experienced and experienced.


    At Marten''s command, the cavalry roared and went on. When the distance narrowed to 40 steps, Ganning saw this scene, and a smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    Almost.


    "Come on, go ahead and kill it!"


    At the moment, Ma Teng was still urging. After his quick order, the cavalry in the army rushed forward again.


    The cavalry in the front row had a cruel smile on his lips. They are all cavalry in the army. One by one, they are good at fighting and kill countless people. They are the best among the best in the army.


    They see a long gun array, but also without hesitation forward to kill, not afraid of any resistance.


    Only killing.


    They can break everything.


    Just as the soldier in the front row started to smile, suddenly the horse fell forward. With a click, the front hoof of the horse broke and fell to the ground with a bang.


    The cavalry on the horse immediately fell off the horse and fell to the ground.


    "Herod


    There was a constant neighing of horses.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    The rest of the surrounding cavalry is the same, the front of the horse, constantly falling, constantly screaming.


    All of a sudden, the original Grand cavalry formation was in chaos.


    Ma Teng''s cavalry are used to running on the desert and fighting on the grassland.


    The northwest is already vast.


    Between the cavalry, that also opened the distance. One by one, there is a distance of nearly four feet. The whole team stretched out in a row, nearly hundreds of feet.


    The squad is huge.


    After all, on the west side of futu mountain, the road is wide and flat, which enables the cavalry to open up. But now, the front cavalry constantly fell to the ground, and the horses were constantly damaged.


    The loss is enormous.


    The cavalry running from behind, because of the speed of driving, even if they rein in the reins, but under the inertia of the sprint, the horse still rushes forward, even if it has to stop, it also rushes forward for a certain distance.


    "Bang! Bang


    The horses rushed up and ran into the fallen cavalry and horses in front of them.


    Even though the cavalry are skillful in riding and want to rush forward from the gap when there is a gap between them, as soon as they rush forward, the horse in their crotch falls to the ground again.


    The formation is in a mess.


    Ma Teng saw this in the rear and said in a loud voice: "hold on, I''ll hold on. What''s the situation?"


    He was anxious.


    It''s all close to Zhang Xiu''s army. Why did she suddenly encounter an accident. The cavalry in front of him kept falling. In a flash, more than a thousand horses fell to the ground, causing great losses.


    The front cavalry was about 20 steps away from the infantry formation led by Gan Ning. However, it is precisely this distance that has become the natural moat of death.No one can move forward.


    All of you are down.


    "There are holes in the ground."


    Fallen cavalry, someone yells.


    The cavalry finally got a clear view of the situation on the ground. At about 40 steps away from Ganning, the ground was surrounded by holes one foot deep and covered with Tribulus terrestris.


    Such holes are scattered in front of Ganning. Once the horse''s hooves step in the hole, it will be punctured by Tribulus terrestris.


    If a horse is in pain, it will fall to the ground.


    This kind of arrangement is easy to find. Especially when encountering infantry, it is almost difficult to play any role.


    But it''s marten.


    In particular, Ma Teng led the cavalry. Under this premise, Ma Teng could not find that the 40 steps ahead of Gan Ning were full of holes.


    With the holes all over the place, as soon as the horses stepped on it, they were all hit.


    The screams, the screams.


    The sound of war horse''s wailing is endless.


    After thousands of horses fell, there were already a lot of horses on the ground. The cavalry attack organized by Ma Teng was completely disintegrated, and there was no more attack.


    The speed of cavalry is also reduced.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Suddenly, there was a torch burning in the air, whistling.


    Ma Teng heard the sound, noticed the light of the fire, and immediately turned to look. He was astonished to find that, sixty steps to his left, an army appeared.


    The number of people in this army is not large, at most more than a thousand. One by one, with a solemn look, the soldiers took their bows and arrows and aimed at the position of the cavalry under Ma Teng''s command.


    "Archer, shoot!"


    The cry was heard immediately.


    More than a thousand soldiers pull bows and take arrows. The bows and arrows only need to pull enough strength, and then release the bowstring. Sharp bows and arrows come out at once. Against the red fire, a sharp arrow, flashing cold light.


    "Whew! Whew


    The dense arrows broke through the air, and a whistling sound came out.


    The momentum is appalling.


    At this moment, Ma Teng felt his scalp numb, and his face looked frightened. He did not dare to delay, immediately ordered: "quick, quick turn direction, to the right."


    One by one, the cavalry quickly turned around, ready to escape to the right.


    At this moment, on his right side, a uniform voice suddenly came out: "this road is blocked!"


    The torch crackled.


    More than a thousand soldiers appeared again, all of them were quick bows and arrows, and the arrows pointed to Ma Teng''s position at random, that is, they used their strength to shoot arrows.


    Dense bows and arrows shot in the air, dense like rain, to the direction of Ma Teng.


    One left and one right, the bow and arrow fell.


    The soldiers under Ma Teng''s command couldn''t escape. In a moment, they heard the sound of bow and arrow rushing into their bodies. Countless soldiers were seriously injured and died under the bow and arrow.


    Many horses fell to the ground on the spot.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows are still falling. Ma Teng is waving the horse in his hand. He is already tired of coping with it. While he keeps resisting, he becomes extremely anxious in his heart.


    The current situation is very unfavorable to him.


    No way ahead!


    On both sides, there are thousands of archers blocking.


    He could even imagine that in front of the archers on the left and right sides, dense holes had been dug out and iron tribulus had been arranged to block the attack of the cavalry.


    Even if he wants to kill it, it''s impossible to get close.


    We have to go back!


    Ma Teng''s heart gives birth to endless helplessness.


    He wanted to rescue Matthew, but before he saw Matthew, he was in trouble. He is proud of the cavalry, even will be led by the nose by Zhang Xiu, so that into a desperate situation.

 Chapter 292

    Ma Teng suddenly very helpless found, in the face of Zhang Xiu''s army, he can only choose to retreat, can''t move forward. He is proud of the cavalry, can horse grassland, can cross the desert, can chase thousands of miles


    At the moment, it''s useless.


    It is difficult to move forward because of the dense holes.


    It''s very desperate for marten.


    Ma Teng can''t figure out a way to solve it, because there are holes around him. Once he gives up his life to kill him, his cavalry will suffer huge losses again. In the past, the war horses kept rushing forward and suffered a wave of losses. Nearly a quarter of the war horses under his command were lost, and the combat effectiveness of the army was greatly reduced.


    The soldiers suffered heavy losses when they were shot with bow and arrow just now.


    His cavalry is more than half damaged.


    In such a short period of time, half of our troops have been lost. It is simply impossible to change to the usual situation. Ma Teng was a strong general on the battlefield. He once fought with cavalry on the battlefield.


    Cavalry in the broad grassland, in the vast land, come and go like the wind, invincible, no one can stop.


    Now, it''s like being put on a tight hoop.


    He couldn''t get away from it all the time.


    Ma Teng looked up at Fang Ganning''s long gun array in front of him. His eyes were a little chilly.


    He knew it all came from this.


    In the past, when he fought on the battlefield, whether it was himself or the enemy, he used to fight with cavalry or infantry. How could he have so many intrigues and tricks that he would never set up a trap.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is different.


    Zhang Xiu set up a long spear array in front of him, ostensibly to resist his attack, but in fact to attract his attention.


    Ma Teng and his cavalry came to futu mountain because the terrain was open. The soldiers under Ma Teng''s command are likely to disperse and rush forward, either to the left or to the right. The place on the way may not be in the middle of the ambush circle arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    In order to let Ma Teng fall into the trap, Zhang Xiu deliberately set up an army.


    The existence of this army, like an indicator light at night, attracted Ma Teng''s attention, making Ma Teng''s army, unconsciously, rush straight to the army line of Ganning.


    Finally, enter the ambush circle.


    Ma Teng wants to understand that Zhang Xiu is cunning. He took a deep breath, knew that he would not hesitate any more, and immediately said, "withdraw, turn around and withdraw. Bypass the ambush circle and kill from the rear. "


    Marten gave the order.


    Although the cavalry under his command is in a weak position for the time being, as long as the soldiers under his command retreat first, withdraw from the ambush circle full of iron briers, and then go around to the left or right behind the archers, it will be enough to kill each other.


    After all, it''s not a long fight.


    Ma Teng''s cavalry was ordered to turn around and retreat in the constant rain of arrows.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    All of a sudden, neat shouts came from behind.


    A long gun array appeared, blocking the retreat of Ma Teng and his troops.


    There are 4000 elite soldiers in this long spear army. All the top helmets are well armed. In every soldier''s hand, he was armed with a long gun.


    The soldiers in the front row are armed with shields as weapons to resist.


    The long gun array appeared quickly and stood in the rear. Although the long spear array moved slowly, it appeared behind Ma Teng and blocked the best way for the cavalry to retreat.


    In particular, the cavalry under Ma Teng''s command could not launch an offensive or escape in a hurry.


    A long gun, stabbed at once.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sharp point of the spear penetrated the body of the horse and cavalry.


    One by one, the cavalry was stabbed into a flesh hole and died miserably under a long gun. The long spear array is like a meat grinder. It keeps rolling forward. Where it passes, the cavalry can''t stop it.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ma Teng exclaimed, "break through the gap on the right."


    Although there are long spearmen in the rear on the official road, after all, the number of long spearmen is only 4000, so it is impossible to block the road.


    Around, there are many gaps.


    As soon as the cavalry dispersed and went to the side, there was a chance to retreat.


    Ma Teng mobilized the rest of the cavalry, quickly to the right side of the gap, ready to break through from the right side. Ma Teng himself had excellent riding skills and martial arts. He took his soldiers on the road, and after a while, he rushed out.


    Rao is so, there are also many cavalry were blocked by spear killing.


    Ma Teng''s cavalry lost more. Just after Ma Teng broke through the encirclement, suddenly, in front of Ma Teng, the sound of horse hooves roared again.


    There was no archery, no spear, but suddenly a cavalry came.


    There are more than a thousand cavalry.


    Chen Dao''s cavalry of Langya camp left and followed him to lay an ambush. In Zhang Xiu''s side, also left a thousand fine riding. Now the elite of the thousand wolf teeth camp follow Zhang Xiu and kill her quickly.Zhang Xiu knew Ma Teng.


    He watched Ma Teng lead only a small number of cavalry to withdraw. He raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, raised his gun and stood on his horse and said, "Ma Teng, Zhang Xiu has been waiting here for a long time. Take your life!"


    A pat horse back, Zhang Xiu gun straight for Ma Teng.


    At this moment, the horse under Zhang Xiu''s crotch is as fast as lightning, quickly drawing the distance between the two sides.


    Ma Teng is in his prime. He has met Zhang Xiu. After all, he knows Zhang Ji. Once under the introduction of Zhang Ji, he met Zhang Xiu. But Zhang Xiu ambushed his son and made Matthew''s life and death uncertain. Now, Zhang Xiu ambushed his cavalry again, causing him great damage.


    When Ma Teng sees Zhang Xiu, his anger rises.


    Boundless intention to kill, breeding from the heart.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    In his hand, Ma Teng''s horse is ten feet long and heavy. However, Ma Shuo was in Ma Teng''s hands, just like a goose feather, with no weight at all.


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, and Ma Teng went to meet Zhang Xiu.


    Both sides face each other, in a twinkling of an eye, Ma Teng comes to Zhang Xiu. He gave a low drink, wrung his waist, swung the horse, clamped his legs on the horse''s belly, and after stabilizing the horse, the horse in his hand had been smashed down.


    The roaring sound of the horse is frightening.


    Before Zhang Xiu''s body, it was full of suffocating momentum.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, relaxed and indifferent. Although Ma Teng''s martial arts in the Xiliang army, it is a valiant general. But for Zhang Xiu, Ma Teng has already passed.


    Not enough for fear!


    Zhang Xiu clamped the horse''s belly, and the horse stopped at the same place. Zhang Xiu raises Bawang''s gun with both hands. With a simple move, Bawang raises the tripod and goes up to the top to block the falling horse.


    "Dang!"


    It''s a dull crash. It''s coming from the crash.


    Zhang Xiu holds the overlord gun''s hand and feels the concussion when the overlord gun is hit. When the spear came down, he felt the strength of the spear.


    Ma Teng''s face changed slightly.


    Just now, he swung his horse and smashed it directly on Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun. Although Ma Teng was one of the attackers, and his anti shock power was weaker, he still felt the anti shock power, which almost made him unable to hold Ma Shuo.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, he suddenly has the feeling of facing his eldest son Ma Chao.


    Ma Teng and Ma Chao have played each other.


    In front of Ma Chao, Ma Teng is also invincible, completely unable to prevent Ma Chao''s attack.


    When Zhang Xiu''s assassin came, Ma Teng even had a feeling that Zhang Xiu was better than Ma Chao. He threw himself back and lay on the horse.


    At the same time, Ma Teng''s Ma Shu is on the ground a little, and with the help of force, the sharp Ma Shu flashes in the air and stabs Zhang Xiu''s chest.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Zhang Xiu sneers, the overlord gun shrinks and sweeps back.


    "Dang!"


    The overlord''s gun strikes Ma Shu, and the powerful force sweeps it, making Ma Shu swing away immediately.


    Zhang Xiu long gun in the air a pause, is hard hit.


    Ma Teng was still lying on the horse''s back at the moment. When the Bawang gun was smashed, Ma Teng''s face changed again. With a kick of both legs, the horse immediately ran forward and could avoid the Bawang gun.


    Ma Teng was not in a hurry to turn his horse''s head around, and he immediately sat up. He twisted his waist on the horse''s back, turned sideways, and the horse stabbed out again.


    Just at the moment when he stabbed the horse, he opened his eyes, because Zhang Xiu had just stabbed the overlord gun in the air.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates into the rear hip of the horse.


    One shot into the muscle.


    "Herod!"


    The horse''s buttocks were pierced by the overlord''s gun. He raised his head and hissed. He suddenly went crazy and threw off his four hooves to rush forward.


    Ma Teng is twisting his waist to move backward, which is not easy to stabilize his body. The horse suddenly rushed forward, and Ma Teng lost his center of gravity. He fell directly from the horse and fell to the ground with a bang.

 Chapter 293

    Ma Teng has been fighting on the battlefield for many years and is a veteran general on the battlefield. Especially in the Qiang people of Xiliang, they have long developed a fierce fighting will.


    Even if he fell to the ground from the horse''s back, as soon as he clenched his teeth, he held back the pain of his body and grasped Ma Yao for the first time. The next moment, without hesitation, he turned over to avoid, and finally the carp stood up.


    Zhang Xiu saw Ma Teng''s action and admired Ma Teng''s flexibility.


    Marten''s experience is not weak.


    But no matter how Ma Teng struggles, he can''t escape the pursuit of Zhang Xiu. At the moment when Ma Teng just stood firm, Zhang Xiu had rushed up to Ma Teng within six feet.


    Zhang Xiu''s legs clamped the horse''s belly, holding the overlord''s gun in both hands, leaning slightly to the right, swung the overlord''s gun and swept forward. This action, just like playing polo, completely regards Ma Teng as polo.


    Brandish the overlord gun, arrived at Ma Teng''s body.


    Ma Teng couldn''t avoid it at all. He could only hold Ma shuge in his hands.


    "Dang!"


    The overlord gun hit the horse hard, and the sound of the impact was harsh, which made people''s ears buzzing.


    Great power, then burst out.


    Ma Teng clenched Ma Shuo''s hand and the tiger''s mouth was torn. In pain, he could not hold Ma Shuo any more. The burly body, also under the impact of the great force, flew backward.


    "Poof!"


    Ma Teng people in the air, Qi and blood churning, can not suppress the injury of the lungs, vomiting blood in the mouth.


    "Bang!"


    In a flash, marten fell to the ground.


    At this moment, Ma Teng''s face was pale, and his whole body seemed to be scattered. In particular, his hands were torn and his internal organs vibrated. He felt pain all over his body, as if he had a breath in his heart.


    Although Ma Teng was injured, he didn''t admit defeat and tried to get up again. However, as soon as he made efforts at his waist, his viscera would be burning with pain, and a trace of strength would fall immediately.


    Ma Teng, who fell to the ground, could no longer get up.


    "Herod


    Ma Teng looked up and saw Zhang Xiu stopping in front of him.


    The overlord gun fell in front of Ma Teng. As long as it was three inches further, Ma Teng would die. Ma Teng''s eyes twinkled with fierce light, gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu, if you have the ability, kill me. My son, Ma Chao, will certainly take revenge for me. "


    "To kill you?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "you are still useful!"


    "Come on, take marten."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    Soldiers quickly forward, and soon put Ma Teng in custody.


    Zhang Xiu killed the cavalry of Ma Teng with his spear, and yelled: "Ma Teng is captured, and those who come down will not be killed. There will be no amnesty for those who resist stubbornly! "


    "If Ma Teng is captured, he will not be killed!"


    "If Ma Teng is captured, he will not be killed!"


    ¡­¡­


    The cavalry in the army, follow and shout.


    The sound reverberated in the night, resounding through the air, clearly reaching every horse''s cavalry ear. Some of these cavalry came from the Han nationality in Xiliang and some from the Qiang nationality. Without exception, they were all rebellious and brave.


    Under the leadership of Ma Teng, they dare to fight to the death.


    Today, Ma Teng is captured by Zhang Xiu. Even if they want to fight to the death, they have no idea of persistence.


    Only surrender!


    One by one, the cavalry dismounted, threw away their weapons and knelt down.


    A group of soldiers, no longer resist.


    Some cavalry wanted to break out, but under the cover of Zhang Xiu and his cavalry of Langya camp, all the cavalry who broke out were killed, and none of them remained.


    The fighting didn''t last long and it was over soon.


    Zhang Xiu shouts Ganning to clean up the battlefield and count the losses as soon as possible.


    Ma Teng saw Zhang Xiu, with a rebellious look, and roared: "Zhang Xiu, where''s my son Ma Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu light way: "and you are the same, are prisoners."


    "Hoo


    After Ma Teng heard this, he took a breath and relaxed completely. Although Matthew and marten were both prisoners, they were still alive.


    That''s enough!


    Ganning is responsible for cleaning the battlefield, but Zhang Xiu does not delay. He immediately mobilized a thousand cavalry of Langya battalion to continue on his way to Chen Dao''s direction.


    In addition, 4000 infantry followed.


    This is just in case.


    Although Han Sui did not send troops with Ma Teng, what if Han Sui quietly followed him?


    This is Zhang Xiu''s consideration.


    When Zhang Xiu led his cavalry and infantry to Chen''s position, Chen went to the ambush and saw two thousand infantry coming from behind.


    This is Marten''s infantry.


    On the one hand, it is to enhance Ma Teng''s strength; on the other hand, if Ma Teng goes wrong, these two thousand soldiers can take over.This is Marten''s consideration.


    Chen Dao was lying in ambush in the open area. When he saw Ma Teng''s troops on the way quickly, he raised a smile in his mouth and a sense of war in his eyes. He ordered: "order the infantry to come out from both wings!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The whimpering horn resounded through the air.


    With the sound of the horn, on the left and right wings of the Majiajun, a torch suddenly lit. The red fire started to burn, dispelling the darkness, and the soldiers of the Majia army rushed to the road.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    There were 1000 ambushes on each side.


    They have been waiting here for a long time, and now they see the soldiers of the Ma family army coming, one by one, like hungry wolves, killing out quickly. However, the distance of several hundred steps was not long. The two armies were like two sharp knives, piercing into the Majia army.


    "Meet the enemy and fight back!"


    The leader of the army, give a loud order to fight back.


    The general''s name is Xiong Heng. He was born in Qiang nationality. He is an infantry general that Ma Teng relies on.


    The weapon Xiong Heng is good at using is the mace. He is strong and strong, just like a giant bear standing on the ground, which has great deterrent power. He didn''t panic when he saw the infantry coming from both sides.


    I''ve seen a lot about it.


    Xiong Heng didn''t order to retreat or advance. Instead, he quickly ordered a change of formation. His 2000 soldiers were divided into two armies, one on the left and the other on the right, to resist the attack.


    Even though the soldiers arranged by Chen Dao were like spikes, and many of them were killed by the sword in a hurry, the formation was not disordered under Xiong Heng''s calm organization.


    In a short time, it was hard to decide whether to win or not.


    Chen Dao was surprised.


    This soldier of the Ma family, regardless of the battle, can be regarded as the elite with the calm command of the general.


    After fighting for a while, Chen Dao saw that although there was no confusion in Ma''s army, he did not stay. Although the Ma family army has been transformed into two armies, the former and the latter are exposed.


    Chen to ordered: "Langya camp, attack!"


    "Kill


    Chen Dao gave the order to shoot the horse.


    "Boom!"


    A horse galloped out, galloping wantonly in the dark. In a flash, it reached the rear position of the Majiajun.


    "Kill!" Chen said


    He led the cavalry and killed them.


    Led by Chen Dao, the army directly cut into the Majia army without stopping at all. A sword swung up and fell in the air. Against the background of the fire, the sharp light of the sword flickered with a piercing chill.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    Blade into the meat, bursts of screams. When the blade cuts out, there is a splash of blood.


    The formation of the Majiajun soldiers in the rear was broken immediately.


    After killing in the rear, Chen Dao didn''t go to the middle of the Majia army, because there were countless soldiers under his command fighting in the middle and on the two wings.


    Once killed, it is easy to hurt the soldiers under its command by mistake.


    Chen Dao led the cavalry of Langya camp, turned their direction, bypassed the left and right wings, quickly reached the front position of the Majia army, and led the troops again.


    In front of the cavalry, even if the horse army is elite, it can''t stop the cavalry''s sprint.


    The formation of the Majiajun soldiers in the front is broken again.


    Under the interference and attack of cavalry, Xiong Heng''s face was dignified. The other side had enough infantry to stop him, and a cavalry to support him in the rear. He was no match at all.


    We can''t rush forward.


    Fight, but not win.


    The most important thing is that Ma Teng''s army in front of him was not ambushed, but made a special trip to ambush him. It can be expected that Ma Teng, with his cavalry running in front, must have been ambushed.

 Chapter 294

    Xiong Heng''s heart sank down, and he was very anxious because he was already in deep trouble.


    "Withdraw!"


    Xiong Heng made a quick decision and gave the order to retreat.


    He held the mace, slapped the horse in his crotch and retreated quickly.


    His soldiers, too, are retreating.


    Chen Dao wanted to ambush the soldiers of the Ma family army, but he did not allow them to withdraw. He quickly led the soldiers of Langya camp to chase them up and quickly cover them up.


    The retreat of the Majia army led by Xiong Heng was a complete defeat.


    Fighting spirit, also plummeted.


    Chen Dao led the soldiers to cover up and kill, but there was no one to stop him. He kept killing the soldiers of the Ma family under Xiong Heng.


    "Run, run!"


    The soldiers kept shouting, and countless soldiers fled in all directions. Many soldiers are no longer retreating with Xiong Heng, but running in all directions to save their lives.


    Chen Dao took the cavalry of Langya camp, but did not take charge of the escaped soldiers of the Majia army. His task was to completely defeat the main force first. Chen Dao''s constant pursuit led to more and more deaths and injuries among the 2000 Majia soldiers.


    One by one, the soldiers of the Ma family army were killed.


    Xiongheng retreated less than five miles, and all his soldiers escaped. Looking around, he found that there were less than 600 or 700 soldiers around him.


    The combat effectiveness has been completely weakened.


    Xiong Heng looked back, and Chen Dao''s cavalry was biting. The soldiers under Xiong Heng''s command are infantry, and those with two legs can''t run with four legs. They are all fish on the chopping board of cavalry, and they are slaughtered by cavalry.


    Seeing more and more dead and wounded soldiers, Xiong Heng''s heart sank.


    It''s over!


    The war is going to be a complete defeat.


    I''m afraid he''s going to die here, too.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, Xiong Heng''s ear moved. Suddenly, he heard the deafening sound of horse''s hooves on the official road ahead. The next moment, you can see the dense firelight flashing, red firelight, a cavalry mighty appeared.


    This cavalry, all white horses.


    all soldiers as like as two peas in white tunic and silver armor.


    The head of the group is very powerful. He has a golden spear with a tiger head in his hand and a helmet on his head.


    It''s Ma Chao.


    He led four thousand elite cavalry to kill. These are the cavalry belonging to Ma Chao. Each of them has strong fighting capacity. This is the strongest army in the Majia army and the basis for the survival of the Majia.


    In Chencang County, Ma Chao refused Ma Teng''s request to send troops. He went back to his camp, thought about it, discussed it with his ministry, pound, and finally decided to send troops.


    On the one hand, although he is not close to Ma Teng, he really doesn''t want Ma Teng to die.


    On the other hand, they can''t bear to be ambushed.


    So Ma Chao quietly sent troops, did not reveal his whereabouts, and did not tell Ma Teng.


    Now I came here and happened to meet Xiong Heng and was killed. As soon as Xiong Heng saw Ma Chao''s cavalry, his face was full of ecstasy, and he roared: "brothers, here comes the eldest son. I''ll kill you. I''ll kill you back. "


    Ma Chao is the God of war of Ma''s army.


    Is the mainstay.


    With Ma Chao, the army is invincible.


    Ma Chao is invincible and invincible.


    As soon as Ma Chao led 4000 cavalry soldiers, Xiong Heng and his soldiers turned around and launched a counterattack.


    Chen Dao led the troops to cover up and kill, but also saw the cavalry killed suddenly.


    At this moment, Chen Dao frowned.


    He has arranged for soldiers to closely monitor the situation in Chencang county. Unexpectedly, he has not detected this ambush. Chen Dao, with a solemn look on his face, decisively ordered: "array, prepare to meet the enemy!"


    He wants to rally his men to fight.


    In addition, Chen gave orders to the two thousand infantry in the rear to make them line up. This time can not escape, once the desperate escape, must be a dead end, will be constantly killed away.


    Only the first World War!


    Chen Zhi''s cavalry quickly gathered and formed a square array with Chen Zhi as the center, ready to attack.


    The infantry in the rear formed a circular array.


    Chen to arrange all this, and let the sentinel to the rear to convey the message, please Zhang Xiu mobilize reinforcements. Chen to the moment can only defend, can not retreat, must wait until Zhang Xiu''s reinforcements arrived.


    Ma Chao saw that the cavalry who had killed Xiong Heng changed his position quickly, and his eyes shrank. In a very short period of time, it can quickly change the array to resist, the other side is not simple.


    But he''s Ma Chao.


    Any soldier who stands in front of him is a local chicken and a dog, which is not worth mentioning.


    "Kill


    Ma Chao''s golden spear of tiger head Zhan was raised and pointed to the front, leading his 4000 cavalry to charge. At this time, it is the third quarter of the morning, the eastern sky, rising a touch of fish belly white, gray night is disappearing.The sky is getting brighter.


    Without Ma Chao''s order, the soldiers had already thrown away their torches, and 4000 people rushed forward.


    Chen Dao was not afraid to see the cavalry killed.


    When Ma Chao''s cavalry approached the range of 80 steps, Chen Dao calmly ordered: "short gun, projection!"


    In an instant, a thousand fine riders took out a short gun from the pocket of the horse''s belly, swung it and threw it out. A thousand short guns passed in the air, and in an instant, their heads fell from the heads of the running cavalry.


    The cavalry led by Ma Chao charged quickly. At this time, when Chen Dao''s cavalry was less than 40 steps away, they were attacked by a wave of short guns.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sound of a series of short guns entering the meat rang out.


    One cavalry after another fell to the ground.


    The formation of Ma Chao''s cavalry was a little scattered. However, Ma Chao did not care and went on. His only target is the cavalry in front of him.


    He wants to destroy the cavalry ahead.


    He wants to win.


    When Chen Dao saw that Ma Chao''s cavalry was in a little bit of confusion, he did not hesitate any more and gave a decisive order: "Langya camp, kill!"


    "Langya camp, invincible!"


    "Langya camp, never move forward!"


    "Kill! Kill! Kill


    All the cavalry, shout in order.


    The cry reverberated in the air.


    The cavalry of a thousand Langya battalions had no timidity or fear in their eyes, only a high morale. One by one, they swung their swords and drove their horses forward.


    When the cavalry of the two sides met, the cavalry of Langya camp cut off with a knife.


    When the blade is cut, the cold light flashes.


    Many of Ma Chao''s cavalry were killed on the spot. The soldiers of Langya camp were attacked and many people were killed.


    After the first fight, the two sides continued to run forward. After nearly a hundred steps, the cavalry turned around again and stood opposite to each other.


    Chen Dao swept around, and the cavalry of Langya camp under his command at least killed nearly 200 people in this wave of fighting.


    The other side is not feeling well either.


    His cavalry was injured, and so was his opponent.


    Chen did not have the slightest fear, nor any idea of escape. He clamped the horse between his legs, raised his long gun high, and ordered: "wolf tooth camp, kill!"


    "Kill


    Eight hundred cavalry of Langya camp charge again.


    Ma Chao frowned slightly when he saw it.


    He acknowledged the elite of the other side''s cavalry. Even though all his cavalry were well-equipped, when it comes to the level of elite, the uniformity and the spirit of the soldiers, the other side is at a higher level.


    Ma Chao''s excellent cavalry is superior to each other in their bravery and bravery.


    Ma Chao is also fearless and full of fighting spirit.


    When he saw that the cavalry of Langya camp had been killed, the golden spear pointed to the front, and a simple word "kill" came out of his mouth, he led the cavalry to drive forward to kill.


    The two armies fought against each other again.


    The two cavalry armies are fighting each other constantly, and neither side has the slightest timidity.


    Only the first World War!


    This is the idea of both sides.


    With no timidity or intolerance on his face, Chen Dao constantly mobilized the soldiers of Langya camp to fight. After continuous fighting, the soldiers of Langya camp under his command were constantly weakened.


    In the end, there were only more than 300 cavalry of Langya camp left.


    Ma Chao is not feeling well either.


    Back and forth, his most elite cavalry killed more than 1500 people. Even the rebellious soldiers who were not afraid of death were a little scared at the moment.


    When you look at the cavalry of less than 300 people, you have more awe in your eyes. The cavalry of Langya camp is too fierce.


    There are few people, but they are still fighting to the death.


    "Sons, follow me


    At this time, among the two thousand infantry in the rear, the general began to shout. Now it''s daybreak, and every soldier can clearly see the soldier''s fearless charge of Langya camp.


    One by one, I was excited.


    When they go to the battlefield, they are not afraid of death, not to mention death. They will not look at their colleagues and protect them with their lives.


    To die, to die together!


    To live, to live together!


    Two thousand infantry quickly stepped forward and stood in the rear of Chen Dao''s army. The army was arrayed, showing a sense of killing, and the soldiers were more determined to fight to the end.

 Chapter 295

    Ma Chao looked at the situation of all the soldiers in Langya camp, and his brows were deeply locked.


    Is this Zhang Xiu''s army?


    So fearless of death.


    Not only cavalry, but also infantry. He used to go all out to deal with cavalry, but he didn''t take charge of infantry. Now when he saw the infantry coming up spontaneously, his heart sank.


    Previously, I didn''t pay attention to infantry.


    I didn''t expect that the infantry were also brave and fearless of death.


    Ma Chao asked himself that even his soldiers could not do this. When it comes to the elite of the army, Ma Chao knows that the army in front of him is generally stronger than his cavalry.


    If the opponent and he have a considerable number of cavalry, then he will certainly lose, unable to win.


    He''s only in the upper hand.


    Ma Chao''s eyes fell on Chen Dao. He had the idea of catching the thief and the king in his heart.


    He''s going to take this man alive.


    If the other side can command 1000 cavalry to such a dead battle, it must not be ordinary people. As long as you take this person, even Ma Teng will fall into Zhang Xiu''s hands, and he can use this person to negotiate.


    Ma Chao also knows that the next fight will involve the infantry of the other side. Although the infantry of the other side can''t stop the cavalry, the number of infantry is large. Once the cavalry enters the infantry crowd, it is difficult to fight back and forth as before in the dense crowd.


    Cavalry and infantry are different, after all.


    Chen Dao''s eyes also fell on Ma Chao.


    He heard a lot of Ma''s army shouting for the eldest son. He knew that Ma Chao was Ma Teng''s eldest son. According to the information, Ma Chao was dressed in a white horse robe and held a long gun.


    This is Ma Chao, no doubt.


    Chen Dao is not in a hurry to fight Ma Chao.


    He knows the other side is not simple.


    So he has been commanding the army to fight and constantly mobilizing soldiers to fight.


    When he saw that more than 1500 soldiers were killed or injured under Ma Chao''s command, a smile appeared on his face, and he suddenly roared: "sons, the death and injury of Ma''s cavalry are almost half. Let''s bite our teeth and kill him. Even if he is a dragon, we will break his teeth. Even if he is a tiger, he will cut off his claws. "


    "Kill me!"


    Chen Dao shouts with his gun and leads his soldiers out.


    "Kill


    Shouts, one after another.


    Two thousand infantry and three hundred elite cavalry, with the spirit of fearlessness, launched a new charge. Even at a disadvantage, no one wants to surrender, no one wants to retreat later.


    They are soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Always invincible!


    It''s always winning without losing!


    They can''t lose!


    They can not retreat.


    The mighty soldiers charged to the cavalry a hundred paces away. The three hundred cavalry headed by Chen Zhi also rushed forward quickly, with high morale and a sense of death.


    Ma Chao saw this and ordered the attack without hesitation.


    He has to win.


    More than 1000 cavalry were killed and wounded. If he retreated in this battle, he could not afford to lose this man.


    The white dragon under Ma Chao''s crotch, Ma Xiliu, hisses and goes straight to Chen Dao. Ma Chao blocked Chen Dao''s way. When he was about to approach Chen Dao, Ma Chao''s golden spear in his hand was lifted, and his spear was like a shuttle, and he went straight ahead.


    Chen to pick up the gun will block.


    They both use guns, and each has a good shot.


    Chen Dao was entangled by Ma Chao and couldn''t get rid of him for a moment. After the infantry took part in the battle, the cavalry lost a lot of flexibility. Fighting on the battlefield turned into close combat and became a white-edged battle.


    The fight between the two sides was fierce.


    Even though Ma Chao''s cavalry was more dominant, Chen Zhi''s infantry, either in groups of three or in groups of five, joined hands to resist the attack of cavalry.


    Even if Ma Chao''s cavalry were elite, he could not gain an advantage in a short time.


    There was a stalemate between the two sides.


    Ma Chao is more and more anxious.


    In his hand, the golden spear of tiger head chamberlain is constantly attacking, the attack is more and more fierce, and the moves are more and more domineering.


    Chen Dao held up his gun to resist. Although he was also good at shooting, after fighting for more than 30 moves, Chen Dao found that his strength was still slightly different from that of Ma Chao.


    As for the flexibility of shooting, he is even better.


    But Ma Chao was born with supernatural power. His strength surpassed him, and his fighting experience was quite rich. Even though Chen Dao''s shooting skill is flexible, it is difficult for him to win.


    Up to now, Chen can only constantly rely on his own advantages to resist Ma Chao''s attack.


    The fight between the two continued.


    In the twinkling of an eye, after more than a hundred moves, Chen Dao has been injured. His left shoulder and rib, leaving two gunshot wounds.


    After all, Ma Chao is stronger.


    If you don''t pay attention, you will be seized by Ma Chao.


    Especially from time to time, Chen has to pay attention to the situation in the next battlefield. Seeing that the soldiers were still resisting and fighting to the death, Chen Zhi was determined to fight with all his strength.Ma Chao was more brave in the war, and after Chen Dao was injured, his fatigue became more and more obvious.


    Ma Chao''s advantage is gradually obvious.


    "Surrender now. I won''t kill you."


    Ma Chao kept on attacking and began to surrender.


    Chen to is silent, constantly waving gun block. But the two continued to fight, Chen''s strength is slightly inferior, after continuous fight, he held the gun''s hand, have gradually numb.


    Arms, weak.


    Chen to the face of Ma Chao''s attack, still did not give up. His soldiers are still fighting to the death. How can he take the initiative to retreat.


    Once you retreat, you lose completely.


    Better die than withdraw.


    "Let go!"


    All of a sudden, Ma Chao gave a loud drink.


    The golden spear of tiger head Zhan in his hand poked out and came to Chen Dao''s body in an instant. Chen Dao used to block, but at this moment, Ma Chao immediately changed his moves and moved up.


    "Bang!"


    Under the fierce impact, Chen Dao''s gun was unstable, and the gun was knocked out immediately.


    Ma Chao drew back his shot and thrust it out again.


    The shot was quick and quick. Chen Dao was a Veteran General in the army. He leaned back with an iron bridge to avoid Ma Chao''s shot. Or Ma Chao spurs a shot, unexpectedly is a feint shot, volleys one meal then mercilessly smashes.


    Chen Dao was completely unprepared.


    He didn''t expect that Ma Chao was completely accurate, so he waited for him to lean back to avoid.


    It''s over!


    Chen Dao sighed in his heart. He didn''t expect that his ambush of Ma Teng''s infantry would fall to this step.


    On Ma Chao''s face, he also smiles.


    After fighting for such a long time, his soldiers were also killed and injured countless times, but he seized the opportunity. He has a bright smile on his face, but it just blooms. Suddenly, Ma Chao''s pupil shrinks.


    "Whew!"


    The sound of breaking the air came from the front.


    Ma Chao is a sideways, falling tiger head Zhan golden gun reflexes on the flip sweep.


    "Pa!"


    Tiger head Zhan''s golden gun collided with the bow and arrow and flew it.


    At this instant, Chen Dao seized the opportunity and quickly drove his horse out of the battlefield to avoid Ma Chao''s attack. That is, in this instant, a figure galloped to us.


    But Zhang Xiu is carrying the overlord gun to kill first.


    Behind Zhang Xiu, a thousand cavalry of Langya camp followed.


    Zhang Xiu protects Chen Dao, who is retreating. Her eyes fall on Ma Chao and she says coldly: "Ma Er, your father Ma Teng and brother Ma Xiu have been captured by Zhang Xiu. You can stay, too. "


    Ma Chao was very angry.


    Horse?


    Since he went to the battlefield, the Qiang people have been afraid of killing him. No one dares to call him that.


    Zhang Xiu insulted him so much.


    Ma Chao clenched the golden gun in his hand and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Although he did not capture the previous generals, it is the best for Ma Chao to capture Zhang Xiu alive. If you take Zhang Xiu, then Zhang Xiu''s army will be leaderless and completely out of control.


    Ma Chao drives his horse out, and the white dragon horse on his crotch, like an arrow away from the string, rushes towards Zhang Xiu in an instant.


    Zhang Xiu did not step back, but took the gun to fight.


    The Bawang gun stuck out in the air and stabbed Ma Chao in the neck. And Ma Chao is also the same, long gun pokes to Zhang Xiu''s neck key. Two people side to avoid, and then at the same time hit the gun.


    "Dang!"


    Hutouzhan''s golden gun and overlord''s gun collided together and burst out deafening sound.


    It''s just Ma Chao''s hand holding Hu touzhan''s golden gun, but there''s a hint of numbness. After all, he and Chen to fight for such a long time, consumed a lot of physical strength, so fight with Zhang Xiu, a face-to-face will be some losses.


    But Zhang Xiu is at the top.


    He didn''t succeed in one shot. As soon as the overlord gun turned, he thrust forward again.


    The spear is sharp and fast as a shooting star.


    Ma Chao quickly dodged and held up his gun.


    Under the continuous attack of Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao was gradually suppressed. He used to fight with Chen Dao, but his physical strength was too much. Now in the face of Zhang Xiu''s fierce attack, his combat effectiveness is rapidly declining, and he can''t stop it soon.


    After all, there''s too much physical exertion.

 Chapter 296

    Ma Chao has suffered a lot, but his heart is not willing to. He is about the same age as Zhang Xiu. He thinks that their martial arts skills are not much different. The reason why they lost one after another is that they first fought with Chen Zhi and consumed too much strength.


    If normal and Zhang Xiu fight, he may not be so suppressed.


    Rao is so, Ma Chao is not willing to fail.


    "Kill


    Ma Chao keeps attacking.


    He intended to turn the bad situation around by attacking hard.


    Zhang Xiu side and Ma Chao fight, but in the mouth is a way: "Ma Er, you still dare to fight with me, don''t you ignore Ma Teng''s life and death?"? At least, marten is your father


    Ma Chao didn''t say a word, just kept on attacking.


    He had no affection for marten.


    It''s just the father.


    When I was a child, there were delicious and funny things. Marten gave them to Matthew.


    Growing up, Ma Teng wants to take care of Ma Xiu in terms of military power and strength.


    This made Ma Chao very indignant.


    Ma Teng is the son of Ma Teng, but he is a commoner. Ma Xiu is a legitimate son. Ma Teng is so eccentric.


    Ma Chao is unconvinced.


    Although Zhang Xiu said that she won steadily, she didn''t relax at all. He continued: "ma''er, I heard that you are the son of concubines, and you are despised by Ma Teng. If there is anything good, Ma Teng will give it to Ma Xiu, and the control of the army will also give it to Ma Xiu. Ma''er, aren''t you particularly reluctant? "


    This is Zhang Xiu''s trial.


    Once, when he was under the command of Cao Cao, he heard Cao Cao''s comments on Ma Chao.


    According to Cao Cao, Ma Chao was born of a common man.


    Just so, he was not taken to Xudu by Ma Teng.


    In later generations, Zhang Xiu also verified some inferences and information, and knew that there was such a thing. But what''s the specific situation? Because I haven''t contacted Ma Chao, I just know Ma Chao. I don''t know the specific situation.


    When Ma Chao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was so angry that he roared: "Zhang Xiu, you should die! If I don''t kill you, Ma Chao will swear not to be a human being. "


    At this moment, Ma Chao''s eyes are red.


    His golden spear in his hand is more and more fierce, and the attack is more and more fierce.


    Zhang Xiu is a bright in front of us.


    Ma Chao has been stimulated and is on the verge of losing his mind.


    This is just the result of Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao fight each other, they don''t want to have a fair fight. They don''t want to really divide. Zhang Xiu''s only idea is to win the battle at the lowest cost.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s idea.


    Only in this way can the casualties of soldiers in the army be reduced.


    This is the battlefield.


    On the battlefield, it should be so.


    In Ma Chao crazy attack, Zhang Xiu is still steady resist, once again said: "Ma Er, your heart must be very unwilling. Oh, think of your mother, think of Matthew''s mother. It''s also a woman. Your mother is bleeding for Ma Teng... "


    "Shut up


    Ma Chao roared, his angry eyes increased, and he said, "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    He moves very hard.


    His arms revolve, his head is full of gold, and his spirit is strong, but his attack is overwhelming. When Ma Chao holds the gun in both hands and swings the golden gun of tiger head Zhan to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brighten.


    Ma Chao was so angry that he opened the empty door on his chest, revealing his flaws.


    Zhang Xiu made a quick decision, changed the defense, the overlord gun rotation, immediately changed the defense to attack. Just listen to a bang, Bawang gun blocked Ma Chao''s attack, and then move forward.


    One shot was as fast as lightning. In a flash, the tip of the gun reached Ma Chao''s chest.


    At the moment, Ma Chao''s golden spear move of tiger head chamberlain is old and can''t resist.


    Ma Chao is a veteran on the battlefield, but he is not flustered. He stretches and shrinks his hand, takes back his gun, and leans back quickly to avoid the stab.


    Rao is so slow.


    "Puchi!"


    Although the tip of the gun failed to pierce Ma Chao''s heart, it penetrated into Ma Chao''s left shoulder.


    One shot, three inches into the flesh.


    Ma Chao quickly beat the horse back, intending to avoid the attack of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu takes out the overlord gun in her hand. The blade of the gun cut his armor and passed Ma Chao''s shoulder, leaving a half foot long wound.


    The red blood flowed from the wound.


    Ma Chao ignored the injury on his shoulder. His eyes were congested and he said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao will kill you."


    The voice falls, Ma Chao attacks again.


    Ma Chao, who was originally short of physical strength, gradually weakened his body strength after his shoulder was injured and blood was constantly flowing out. Even Ma Chao''s strong attack is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    Zhang Xiu turned into a fierce attack.


    The overlord gun is just fierce without casting, and every move is hard against Ma Chao, intending to win Ma Chao. As long as Ma Chao is won, the whole army of the Ma family will be destroyed.


    Zhang Xiu presses Ma Chao to fight, which makes Ma Chao angry but useless. Especially when Zhang Xiu attacked, he constantly attacked Ma Chao''s left shoulder and attacked the wound, which made Ma Chao tired of resisting."Kill


    After Zhang Xiu opened Ma Chao''s golden spear, he stabbed Ma Chao''s left shoulder again. This time, Ma Chao is a slow step, saw the tip of the gun is about to pierce the shoulder again, suddenly, a long knife out.


    A long knife across the air, blocking Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun.


    A team will appear.


    This man is a big man in bright silver armour. He is slightly older than Ma Chao. He rides his horse in front of Ma Chao. With a long knife in his hand and sharp eyes, he said: "second young master, our troops have been greatly weakened and have not gained the upper hand. There are infantry coming from behind Zhang Xiu. More and more people admit defeat. We can''t win. Withdraw! "


    His name is pound.


    He is a strong general under Ma Chao''s command and has excellent martial arts.


    When Ma Chao attacked Chen Dao, pound was responsible for leading the soldiers in the army to cover up Chen Dao''s soldiers. Rao was under the command of Pound himself, but he failed to completely defeat Chen''s army.


    Now Zhang Xiu leads the cavalry of Langya camp to join the battlefield, and infantry kill him. Pound can''t stop him.


    When Ma Chao heard Pound''s words, he couldn''t help but excite himself.


    At this time, he came back to himself.


    Just now and Zhang Xiu fight, he has been out, regardless of the attack, completely ignored the surrounding situation.


    It was stimulated by Zhang Xiu.


    Now seeing that his cavalry was in trouble, Ma Chao realized that the situation was critical.


    If we fight again, we will be besieged.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ma Chao was no longer in love with fighting. Turning his horse''s head, he endured the wound on his shoulder and quickly retreated. Pound follows Ma Chao and covers Ma Chao to withdraw. The rest of the cavalry also quickly retreated, no longer love war.


    Zhang Xiu saw that, instead of pursuing, she ordered to rest in place, count the losses and clean up the battlefield. This time Ma Chao appears, what if he meets Han Sui when he pursues Ma Chao again?


    What''s more, with pound in, it''s almost impossible to win Ma Chao.


    Zhang Xiu knows pound.


    Today pound has no reputation. Even when Zhang Xiu was the first, although he was obedient to Cao Cao, he didn''t know about pound. Only when we know about Pound''s situation through historical records can we know that pound is a strong fighter, capable of fighting against Guan Yu, and is a brave and loyal general.


    With pound, it''s hard to deal with Ma Chao.


    Zhang Xiu looked around, looking at the corpse on the ground, with a touch of pain on her face.


    When he came to the rescue, he found that the cavalry of Langya camp had been killed and injured countless times.


    This war is extremely fierce.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t participate in the war, but she also knew the tragedy of the war.


    Chen''s face was full of pain.


    There are too many casualties in this war.


    He quickly counted the situation of the war. Two quarters of an hour later, Chen Dao came to Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "my Lord, I can''t do anything. In the battle with Ma Chao, 886 cavalry of Langya camp were killed, and 114 were left. "


    "Among them, 60 were seriously injured, 20 were slightly injured, and only a few were not injured."


    "In this war, we are facing Ma Chao''s 4000 elite cavalry of Xiliang army. No one retreats, no one surrenders, and we will not retreat in a dead battle."


    "From beginning to end, there is no retreat."


    Chen to said solemnly, after a sentence, his eyes turned red.


    Tears, full of eyes.


    Bean big tears, such as broken line, patter patter patter flow down.


    This iron man, bleeding without tears, would rather die than bend. At this moment, he is incomparably fragile.


    Chen Dao''s voice choked, and he continued: "the two thousand infantry led by the general did not surrender or retreat. They fought to the end. In this battle, we first defeated two thousand of Ma Teng''s soldiers, and then killed more than two thousand of Ma Chao''s fine cavalry. "


    "Although Langya camp was defeated, it is worthy of the name given by the Lord."


    Chen Dao said about the battle record of Langya camp, and then said: "however, in this battle, the general failed to find out Ma Chao''s sneak attack in time, resulting in the army''s disastrous defeat."


    "If you will be guilty, please punish me."


    "Plop!"


    Chen to kneels directly on the ground, a look of letting Zhang Xiu punish him.

 Chapter 297

    Zhang Xiu knows the tragedy of the situation.


    It is clearer how unfavourable the situation is after Chen Dao''s encounter with Ma Chao.


    Chen Dao led his troops to ambush on the half Road, with only 1000 cavalry and 2000 infantry. Such a force, ambushing the two thousand infantry of marten, is extremely easy and easy.


    However, Ma Chao''s 4000 elite riders are at an absolute disadvantage.


    There is a big gap in strength.


    Even so, Chen took 1000 cavalry of Langya battalion and 2000 infantry to block Ma Chao''s fierce attack. In particular, the soldiers of the 1000 Langya battalion suffered heavy losses, but the infantry had no influence. It was obviously the cavalry that protected the infantry.


    Otherwise, it would not be so.


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn. He held Chen Dao in his hands and solemnly said: "Uncle Zhi, the cavalry of Langya camp is worthy of the name of Langya camp. All the cavalry in Langya camp are loyal and brave. Zhang langxiu is my model in the camp. I am proud of Zhang Xiu! "


    As soon as these words came out, more than 100 surviving soldiers of Langya camp cried bitterly.


    One by one, on weekdays, talking and laughing.


    On the battlefield one by one, we will fight to the death.


    Now in front of Zhang Xiu, but cry like a child, let a person see distressed.


    The cavalry of Langya camp who were killed by Zhang Xiu clenched their fists. They also belong to the Langya camp. They eat, live and train with the soldiers who died in the war. They are the comrades in the army.


    They didn''t take part in the war, but they knew it was a terrible one and knew it was not easy. Those who died were all their comrades. Now Yin and yang are separated, and each of them is angry.


    "Revenge


    Suddenly there were soldiers in the army shouting.


    "Revenge! Revenge


    One after another, the cries echoed in the air. More and more soldiers joined in the cry. They looked at the direction of Ma Chao''s withdrawal with hatred in their eyes. They were all filled with righteous indignation and prepared for the first World War.


    They want revenge!


    They want revenge!


    Tooth for tooth, blood for blood!


    To stop anger.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers shouting, her face showed a happy look.


    Morale is available!


    The cavalry of Langya battalion under his command has experienced many wars and is highly effective. Today, through a bloody battle with Ma Chao, the spirit of the army has been honed and all the soldiers have gathered together.


    This is the spirit of the soldiers of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    With this spirit and spirit, the soldiers of Langya camp are all strong soldiers who can''t beat down, break down, hammer and flatten.


    Zhang Xiu let the soldiers shout.


    Let the soldiers vent their depression and anger. After a long time, Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that all the soldiers would be quiet. When there was silence around, Zhang xiulang said: "the blood of the dead soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command can''t be shed in vain; the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command have gratitude and revenge; the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are not cowards."


    "We must take revenge."


    "But before we get revenge, we need to conserve our energy. Now to pursue and kill Ma Chao, there is no advantage except being ambushed and fighting Han Sui''s army again. "


    "What we need to do now is to put away our grief and indignation, turn it into strength, reorganize the army and fight again."


    Zhang Xiu clenched her fist and waved it in the air. She threw it to the ground and said: "next, we will come to Chencang. When we get to Chengcang, we''ll take revenge. "


    "Revenge!"


    Countless soldiers, shouting.


    After Zhang Xiu and other soldiers finished shouting, they looked at Chen Dao and ordered him to clean up the battlefield and reorganize the army. In the current war, too many soldiers have been killed and wounded, and Chen Dao has a lot to do.


    We should not only count the dead soldiers so that they can be compensated, but also the number of soldiers killed so that they can ask for merit.


    Chen will have a very busy time.


    The army stopped for a while, and the rear army, led by Jia Xu, Pang Tong and Li Ru, followed.


    The army is resting in place.


    But Zhang Xiu is not idle. After Chen Dao resettled the wounded soldiers of Langya camp, he went to see 1000 surviving soldiers of Langya camp in person and expressed sympathy one by one, so as to cheer up the soldiers.


    Back to the army''s big account, Zhang Xiu sent someone to bring Ma Teng up.


    Today''s Ma Teng is in a mess.


    He led 4000 elite riders to rescue Matthew. Unexpectedly, he took himself in.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ma Teng and said faintly, "Ma Teng, you and Han Sui join hands to attack Chencang county. Although he won Chencang County, he became a prisoner. Do you regret it? "


    Ma Teng said: "Zhang Xiu, I regret that I didn''t attack Chen Cang earlier."


    "Don''t be arrogant. Although you captured me, Chencang still has Han Sui and my son Ma Chao''s army. It''s hard for you to conquer Chencang."


    Ma Teng''s eyes turned and continued: "especially after you left Chang''an with the army, Duan Xu of Hongnong county had already sent troops.""Before long, Chang''an will fall."


    "If you lose your rear area, you will be a lost dog."


    Ma Teng said forcefully: "this time, we are not only dealing with you, but also Duan Rong, a wonderful soldier."


    Zhang Xiu raised her mouth and said, "what about a simmer? If Ben is not prepared, Duan simmer may succeed. The problem is that Ben will have arranged it properly for a long time. I''m not afraid of Duan''s sneak attack. I''m afraid of Duan''s shrinking. "


    Brush!


    Ma Teng''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu has the foresight to expect that Duan Rong will attack Chang''an.


    It''s a little scary.


    Ma Teng did not admit defeat and gritted his teeth: "even if you expect Duan Wen to attack Chang''an, what can you do? Most of your troops are on the Chencang line. When Duan Xun''s army arrives, the army left behind in Chang''an can''t keep it. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I don''t want you to worry about that."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "speaking of Ma Chao, Ma Teng really has a good son. When you lead your troops to mount futu, you are ambushed. Behind you, Ma Chao comes to the rescue. "


    "He led the troops to the rescue, but he saved some infantry, but I was badly hurt and finally retreated."


    "Your second son, Matthew, is a waste."


    "Ma Chao, the eldest son, is brave."


    "Unfortunately, I failed."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but the eldest son you don''t like the most, he is in the rear, and also wants to save you. Ma Teng, is the mood a little complicated at the moment? "


    Marten''s cheek did.


    Is Ma Chao here?


    It''s impossible.


    You know, Ma Chao refused to send troops.


    Thinking of Ma Chao''s rescue, Ma Teng still feels warm inside, but Ma Teng feels wrong. He is Ma Chao''s Lao Tzu. Although the relationship between father and son is not good, Ma Teng knows that Ma Chao''s 4000 elite cavalry is invincible.


    There''s no super cavalry that can stop you.


    In Northwest China, Ma Chao''s cavalry come and go like the wind, which is the most elite.


    Ma Teng gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t brag. My son Ma Chao is excellent in martial arts. His cavalry was invincible. How can you be Meng Qi''s opponent and defeat his cavalry? It''s impossible. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "my cavalry of 1000 Langya battalion and 2000 elite infantry have blocked Ma Chao''s 4000 cavalry. Although there were only more than 100 cavalry left in Langya camp, Ma Chao''s cavalry lost nearly 2000. This is a real fight. "


    "Ma Chao, no more!"


    Zhang Xiu has a strong voice.


    With the help of Ma Chao''s situation, he deliberately stimulated Ma Teng to get information from him.


    Ma Teng heard Zhang Xiu''s words, but also slightly absent-minded. He knew the fighting power of Ma Chao''s cavalry, and now he was defeated, which was beyond his expectation.


    Ma Teng said: "Zhang Xiu, even if you beat Meng Qi, what can you do? Chencang County, there are more than ten thousand Han Sui elite. With the withdrawal of Meng Qi, it is enough to guard Chencang county. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes command.


    Han Sui still had more than ten thousand soldiers in Chencang, and Ma Chao, who fled back, had few troops.


    This is a good thing for Zhang Xiu.


    At the beginning, Ma Teng and Han Sui were powerful and had a large number of troops. After the battle of futushan, the number of soldiers under Zhang Xiu was even higher, while the number of Han Sui was small, and the situation had been reversed.


    Zhang Xiu knew Chen Cang''s troops, and didn''t say much more. She waved her hand to let people take the horse back.


    But Ma Teng was escorted out and suddenly said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t you surrender me?"


    "No surrender!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Ma Teng has some accidents, Zhang Xiu''s answer is too simple, even makes him a little surprised.


    Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to take Ma Teng away. After a while, Gan Ning rushed into the camp, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, all the battle reports of the battle of the floating mountain have been counted."

 Chapter 298

    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the result?"


    Gan Ning replied: "the loss of our soldiers in this war resulted in 2358 deaths, including 998 in Langya camp and 1360 in ordinary soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu looks a little silent.


    The main loss of ordinary soldiers was to resist the retreat of Yan Xing and Ma Xiu, and to fight against Ma Teng.


    The loss of Langya battalion is the loss of fighting Ma Chao.


    At that time, 886 soldiers of Langya camp under Chen Zhi''s command were killed in the battle, and more than 100 of the others were damaged by cavalry. This is normal.


    Overall, the battle was a complete victory.


    It''s just that Langya camp lost a lot.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said, "where are the captured soldiers?"


    Gan Ning smile on his face, replied: "in this war, we have captured more than 14000 soldiers, more than 3400 horses have been captured, 2000 horses are intact, 1400 horses have broken bones, have been treated."


    "If you can recover, it''s the best."


    "If you can''t recover, you have to kill."


    Gan Ning said excitedly, "we have killed countless Liangzhou soldiers, and roughly counted more than 5000."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu just took a bad breath.


    There are two main sources of the soldiers he captured. The first is the soldiers who captured Ma Xiu and Yan Xingshi, and the second is the soldiers who defeated Ma Teng. Although there are still some others, they are in the minority.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "surrender soldiers, all custody properly, and then as soon as possible to recruit, surrender and reorganize, do not cause trouble."


    "I''ll do it


    Gan Ning answers with a fist.


    In fact, what Zhang Xiu lacks now is elite troops and food.


    He can support as many soldiers as he wants.


    After Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning to step down, she told the soldiers to call Chen Dao.


    Today''s Chen Dao looks a little depressed, but he is also energetic and ready to rebuild the Langya camp. This time, the loss almost consumed one third of the elite of Langya camp, which was a big blow to Chen Dao.


    Chen Dao said, "I''ll meet you at your humble post."


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said, "Chen Dao, the dead are gone, and the living need to be strong. As the commander of Langya camp, you have to shoulder the heavy task of rebuilding Langya camp. "


    "I understand


    Chen Dao answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said: "according to Gan Ning''s report, after defeating Ma Teng''s cavalry, he captured 2000 war horses in good condition and more than 1400 injured ones. You take over all these horses, and then select soldiers from the army to reorganize the Langya camp. The style and fine tradition of Langya camp must be inherited. "


    "I''ll do it


    After hearing this, Chen Dao was excited.


    With 2000 intact horses and more than 1000 injured horses, his Langya camp can expand again.


    Zhang xiudao said: "go to work!"


    "Here it is


    Chen is full of hope at the moment and leaves with high morale.


    Zhang Xiu''s army temporarily rest, and Ma Chao, he took the soldiers with a breath to withdraw more than ten miles before stopping to rest.


    Ma Chao looks pale.


    He and Zhang Xiu fight, shoulder injury, is very embarrassed. Especially when he was fighting with Zhang Xiu, if pound hadn''t arrived in time, he would have died under Zhang Xiu''s gun.


    Pound followed, looking at Ma Chao''s shoulder, which had been soaked and dyed red with blood, and said, "young master, your injury is very serious. You must bandage it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it is easy to leave future troubles. "


    Ma Chao said: "I will bandage it immediately. Ling Ming, you should count the loss first."


    "Here it is


    Pound went to the count immediately.


    It wasn''t long. After Ma Chao bandaged the wound and put on his clothes again, pound came to Ma Chao.


    At the moment, Pound''s face was dignified.


    As soon as Ma Chao saw Pound''s look, he knew that the situation was not good and said, "what''s the specific situation?"


    Pound replied, "young master, our cavalry has suffered a great loss. Of the four thousand elite riders, only two thousand were left, and nearly two thousand were damaged. Of course, some of the cavalry escaped, but this time it was a great loss. In addition, more than 600 infantry have escaped. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Ma Chao was furious when he heard Pound''s report.


    Of the four thousand elite riders, two thousand lost. Even if two or three hundred escaped, more than 1800 died in the war.


    This is hard for Ma Chao to accept.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu captured Ma Teng. It can be predicted that Ma Teng''s 4000 elite riders were defeated. This time, Ma''s army, which had been sent from Xiliang, almost disappeared.


    First, Matthew''s 8000 foot soldiers.


    Then there are four thousand elite cavalry and two thousand infantry of marten.


    Plus, he still has nearly 2000 losses.This war has damaged nearly 16000 people, which is a great loss.


    Pound said in a deep voice: "young master, under the present situation, I suggest not to withdraw Chencang county and go straight back to Liangzhou. In Chencang County, Han Sui still has more than 10000 troops, but we only have more than 3000. What if Han wants to deal with it? At that time, you will be in a very bad situation. And even if Han Sui doesn''t have evil intentions, I''m afraid Chencang county can''t keep it. "


    After thinking about it, Ma Chao shook his head and said, "no, I will not withdraw."


    "What if Han then deals with us?" said pound


    "He dare not!"


    Ma Chao raised his head and threw it to the ground in a voice: "with me, Ma Chao is not afraid to do it. Han Sui is really insidious, but he knows the strength of our cavalry and dare not fight with us. What''s more, in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu is coming. If Han Sui fights with us, he will not be able to defend Chencang county. "


    Pound sighed and said, "since you have decided, let''s do it."


    "Go back to Chencang!"


    Ma Chao looked at the direction of futu mountain and led his troops to Chencang county. When Ma Chao arrived in Chencang, he went straight into the city before noon, and then returned to his own army without excessive publicity.


    Ma Chao kept silent, but the news came to Han Sui''s ears.


    When Han Sui learned that Ma Chao was defeated, he immediately arranged for Yang Cong to inquire about the news.


    After a short time, Yang Cong came back.


    With a faint smile on his face, Yang Cong entered the Chinese army tent, bowed to Han Sui, and said excitedly, "general, I''ve got the news about Ma Chao and Ma Teng."


    Han Sui stood up directly, paced back and forth, with a smile on his face, and said, "don''t hurry, let me guess. Last night in the last battle, Ma Teng led 4000 elite cavalry and 2000 infantry to fight. At that time, Ma Chao didn''t go out. "


    "After Ma Teng left for a long time, Ma Chao quietly left Chencang county."


    "Now, Ma Chao comes back alone. Maybe Ma Teng is ambushed, and Ma Chao himself loses his troops."


    "Is that right?"


    Han Sui looks at Yang Cong and looks forward to it.


    Yang Cong nodded and said: "the general is wise. Ma Teng was defeated and captured by Zhang Xiu. In addition, the 4000 elite cavalry Ma Chao brought last night only brought back 3000 people, some of them infantry. The strength of the Ma family army has been greatly weakened. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Han Sui carried his hands, raised his head and laughed, and his face was full of pride.


    Yang Cong said: "unfortunately, Ma Chao didn''t die. If Ma Chao fights with Zhang Xiu, he also falls into Zhang Xiu''s hands, or is killed by Zhang Xiu on the spot, Ma can be removed from Liangzhou. "


    Han Sui said with regret: "it''s true. If Ma Chao dies, the Ma family can be removed. Alas, if Ma Teng and Ma Chao are captured, it will be easy. But Ma Teng was taken, and Ma Xiu didn''t know his life or death. Alas, a pity, a pity


    A cold look flashed in Yang Cong''s eyes and suggested: "general, Ma Chao''s troops are only more than 3000. Now, we are much stronger than Ma Chao. What if we win Ma Chao first


    "No way!"


    Han Sui immediately denied it.


    Han Sui''s eyes were wise and said: "first, Ma Chao is very brave. Without Yan Xingzai, no one in our army can kill him. If Ma Chao wants to leave Chencang, I can''t stop him. "


    "When Ma Chao returns to Liangzhou first, our own rear will be in chaos."


    "I can''t afford the consequences."


    "Second, now we are at the critical moment of fighting against Zhang Xiu. To deal with Ma Chao is to destroy the city wall. And when we fight Ma Chao, we will lose a lot of troops. "


    "Now, Ma Chao is bound to hate Zhang Xiu because of the feud between the Ma family and Zhang Xiu. Why not resist Zhang Xiu with the help of Ma Chao? It''s very difficult to resist Zhang Xiu just because of our strength. "


    Han Sui was very resourceful and said, "it''s all in a hurry. In particular, although Ma Chao is brave, he is not as resourceful as Ma Teng. Ma Teng seems simple and honest, but in fact he is extremely cunning and difficult to deal with. Ma Chao is different. Although he is brave, he is brave but not resourceful. It''s not difficult to deal with Ma Chao. "


    Yang Cong said: "the general is wise!"


    Han Sui ordered: "you go to summon the soldiers stationed at each gate to strengthen their guard. In addition, they also sent sentries to make a close investigation of Zhang Xiu. Now, Ben will go to meet Ma Chao for a while to find out the situation. "


    "Here it is


    Yang Cong was ordered to turn back.

 Chapter 299

    Han then got up and walked out of the camp and went straight to Ma Chao''s camp. After he entered, when he arrived outside the Chinese Army''s tent, some soldiers told Ma Chao the news.


    When he learned that Han Sui had come, Ma Chao had been waiting for him. The wound on Ma Chao''s shoulder was repainted and covered with a white robe, but the injury could not be seen.


    Facing Han Sui, Ma Chao said calmly, "what''s the matter with uncle coming to our army?"


    Han Sui said with a smile, "I''ve heard that my nephew led the troops back, but I don''t see my younger brother back. I was worried, so I came to ask myself to see what was going on? "


    Ma Chao sighed: "my father was defeated and captured. In addition, my second brother Ma Xiu also fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu. If there is no accident, Yan Xing should also be captured by Zhang Xiu. "


    Han Sui''s face turned black.


    Yan Xing, a fool, fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands. It''s better to die. A captured Yan Xing is obviously more unfavorable to Han Sui. He prefers Yan Xing to be a dead man.


    Han Sui said, "my dear nephew, what''s your plan for the present situation?"


    "Fight to the end!"


    Ma Chao didn''t even think about it. He answered directly.


    He was defeated by Zhang Xiu when he was physically exhausted. He was unwilling to lose. He wanted to be ashamed before the snow.


    So Ma Chao wants to fight again.


    Han then heard Ma Chao''s words, his face was still, and he quickly encouraged: "if you want to fight to the death, I will accompany you to the end. Although your father is defeated now, Yan Xing also falls into Zhang Xiu''s hands. But we have the mace of Duan Xu. As long as Duan Xu attacks Chang''an, Zhang Xiu will be defeated. As long as the rear area of Zhang Xiu is lost, the news comes, and his morale is turbulent, we can work hard to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    Ma Chao said, "what my uncle said is true."


    At the moment, Han Sui thinks that Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu will fight each other. If he finds an opportunity, he will fight to kill Ma Chao with a knife.


    Ma Chao died, Ma Teng was captured, and without the helmsman, the situation would be perfect.


    When Han then returns to Xiliang, he can publicize that Zhang Xiu killed Ma Chao, and he fought to death to escape to Xiliang. He uses Zhang Xiu to pull hatred, rally the people of Liangzhou, and then gather the power of the Ma family.


    Without Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu as a target, Han Sui was able to unify Liangzhou.


    This is the plan in Han Sui''s mind.


    However, Han Sui didn''t show the slightest hint on his face. Instead, he said with a smile: "Meng Qi, in my opinion, Zhang Xiu will lead her troops to Chencang County soon. At that time, Zhang Xiu escorts your father out to make you surrender. What do you do? "


    "Hiss!"


    Ma Chao suddenly took a cool breath.


    That''s something he didn''t think about. He''s Marten''s son. Once Zhang Xiu put his father''s life in front of the two armies, what should he do? Save or not?


    Surrender or not?


    This is a very difficult choice.


    Han Sui''s words, with bewitching, slowly said: "about this matter, I have also considered. If you choose to surrender, there will be no revenge for your father. "


    "Even if you surrender to Zhang Xiu, it can only be Zhang Xiu''s trick, because he is using your father to coerce you."


    "Your father has always been rather bent than bent. He won''t give in to Zhang Xiu."


    "You Ma Chao, too."


    "I think in the face of Dayi, you have to harden your heart to defeat Zhang Xiu. The more you worry about your brother''s life, the more Zhang Xiu can handle you. "


    Han Sui said: "when I was young, I used to be a county captain in the county. At that time, there were bandits and thieves who made trouble and took away the county magistrate. In fact, the strength of the bandits is not very strong, but the county magistrate is in hand, which makes me very difficult. "


    "Bandit, order me to surrender."


    "But I thought that once I surrender to the bandits, I will be completely reduced to the fish on the chopping board of the bandits and let them kill me. If I am determined to stick to it, it will make the bandits fear. "


    "So I didn''t take charge of the county magistrate''s life. I ordered a strong attack and finally killed the bandits. I also took back the county magistrate and saved countless people in the county."


    Han Sui''s words are eloquent and can bewitch people very much. He said with a straight face: "in the current situation, the younger brother falls into the hands of Zhang Xiu. The more you worry about your father''s life, the more you are controlled by Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s just that you don''t care. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu doesn''t dare to take a good brother."


    "Because if Zhang Xiu killed her younger brother, she would be your enemy, and she would have a complete hatred with the Ma family. Even if Zhang Xiu wants to enter Liangzhou again, it''s impossible. "


    "So I think that when Zhang Xiu comes, you don''t care about the safety of your younger brother. The more safe he is."


    Han Sui said, "do you understand?"


    In front of Ma Chao''s face, Han Sui said a big call, the purpose is to let Ma Chao, regardless of Ma Teng''s life or death, vow to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Ma Chao pondered it carefully, which seems to be the truth.


    He was convinced.


    Ma Chao nodded solemnly and replied, "what my uncle said is in my heart. Please don''t worry, uncle. I will be hard hearted and not be intimidated by Zhang Xiu. Even if it''s Zhang Xiu who threatens her father''s life, I won''t take care of it. ""That''s good!"


    Han Sui nodded, looking pleased.


    But inside he was laughing.


    Ma Chao, who is brave but not resourceful, is easy to deal with.


    If you think about it, Ma Chao doesn''t care about Ma Teng''s life, that is, he doesn''t care about his own father. When the news comes back to Liangzhou and to Ma''s hometown, what do some old people in Ma''s army think of Ma Chao?


    Ma Chao must face a situation of betrayal and separation.


    Ma Teng will also hate Ma Chao more.


    This is exactly the effect Han Sui wants to achieve, alienating the relationship between Ma Teng and Ma Chao, and making Ma''s family not accept Ma Chao. Even on this basis, Han Sui hopes that Zhang Xiu will be angry and kill Ma Teng directly.


    If he wants to annex the Ma family, it will be much easier. Han Sui even thinks that if Zhang Xiu kills Ma Teng and Ma Xiu first, then he defeats Zhang Xiu and then encircles Ma Chao, everything will be perfect.


    Of course, this is not easy to achieve.


    But Han Sui had to do it and try to unify Liangzhou as soon as possible.


    Ma Chao is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. After pondering over it, he said: "uncle, if you want to fight Zhang Xiu to the end, you can''t do without enough troops. The soldiers under my command are seriously depleted and weak in combat effectiveness. I hope my uncle can support my two thousand infantry. After all, my uncle''s troops are still there, but I don''t have much strength. "


    Han suideng frowned as he ascended.


    Ma Chao, it seems that he is not a fool. He knows how to bargain.


    Han Sui pretended to ponder, and said: "you know, my dear nephew, Yan Xing''s defeat has caused the loss of eight thousand elite soldiers. Now, no soldiers have escaped. I''ll give you two thousand soldiers, and there''s not much left. "


    Ma Chao said: "even if Yan Xing''s 8000 troops were damaged, his uncle still had more than 12000 people. What''s more, my uncle recently recruited soldiers in Chencang City, and the troops are still increasing. Uncle, there are only more than 3000 soldiers under my command. If we don''t have enough troops, I''m afraid we can''t resist Zhang Xiu. "


    In the words, with a faint threat.


    Although Ma Chao is young, he is not a fool. He can''t let Han Sui tease him at will. He knew that Han Sui wanted him to resist Zhang Xiu and help him defeat Zhang Xiu.


    In fact, Ma Chao also hopes to beat Zhang Xiu. Because Ma Chao has the obsession to defeat Zhang Xiu, so he will agree with Han Sui and ignore Ma Teng''s life.


    For Ma Teng, Ma Chao has always been complicated.


    The reason why he went to rescue Ma Teng was not that he wanted to save Ma Teng''s life, but because he didn''t want Ma Teng to fall into ambush, which led to heavy losses of Ma''s army.


    Unexpectedly, Ma Teng was defeated.


    Han Sui was not willing to hear Ma Chao''s words, but if he wanted to incite Ma Chao, he had to give up. So Han Sui bit his teeth and nodded: "I agree. I''ll lend you two thousand elite soldiers for the time being. After defeating Zhang Xiu, you have to return 2000 people to me. "


    "No problem!"


    Ma Chao had a smile on his face.


    Although it was Han Sui''s troops, Ma Chao was confident that he could subdue the two thousand. With 2000 more elite soldiers, there are 5000 under his command. Ma Chao will have more confidence in the fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Han Sui settled the matter, no longer stayed, turned around and left. Ma Chao struck while the iron was hot, and immediately called pound and asked pound to follow Han Sui to bring the soldiers back.

 Chapter 300

    After Zhang Xiu''s army had recovered near futu mountain, they set off again for Chencang county. The road to Chencang county was smooth without any resistance.


    Counting the prisoners, there are more than 30000 soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army on the way, mighty and fierce.


    The army arrived in Chencang county and stationed an array outside the east gate of Chencang county.


    Zhang Xiu put on his helmet and drove his horse forward.


    He looked at Chencang County in front of him. Although Chencang county is an important town in Guanzhong and a strategic place leading to Liangzhou, the city wall is not tall and strong. The city wall is gorgeous and dilapidated, with potholes and holes everywhere.


    The wall of the city is only two feet high.


    Such a city wall is not very strong, just like this, it was easily broken by Han Sui and Ma Teng.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on the tower. She said in a loud voice, "where is Han Sui?"


    "Ben will be here!"


    Han Sui, wearing armor and a sword hanging from his waist, stood on the upper floor of the city. He has long been the sentinel sent back the news, know that Zhang Xiu with the army near the county, has long been waiting in the city upstairs.


    Han Sui looks at Zhang Xiu.


    He had seen Zhang Xiu, but when he saw Zhang Xiu that year, Zhang Xiu was still a young boy.


    At that time, Zhang Xiu was a young man. She was unruly and unruly. She looked like Lao Tzu''s number one in the world. I really don''t like her. Even though Zhang Xiu was good at shooting at that time, in the eyes of an old man like Han Sui, Zhang Xiu was too tender.


    In front of her, Zhang Xiu is calm and has a great general''s style.


    However, in Han Sui''s view, Zhang Xiu is still too young, young means blood impulse.


    This is precisely the weakness of young people.


    Han then took a breath and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, when I worked with your Uncle Zhang Ji, you were just a little boy and just joined the army."


    "I haven''t seen you for many years. You''ve grown up now. But it''s still too young and tender. "


    "As soon as you captured Chang''an, you had a shaky foothold. It was unwise of you to rush to Chencang county to fight with me."


    "Chencang county is a small place. It''s nothing. If you lose Chencang County, as long as Chang''an is there, you''ll still be in Guanzhong and still have a foothold. But if you come to Chencang county and lose Chang''an, you will never be able to get a foothold in Guanzhong. "


    Han Sui said: "this time you send troops, it''s a loss business


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is like a mirror to Han Sui''s words.


    Han Sui would definitely mention Duan Rong. Although Zhang Xiu knew about Duan Rong, she didn''t say she knew about it. Instead, she said, "whether it''s Chang''an or Chen Cang, they are all under the rule of this general. They are all in the area under the control of this general, and no one is allowed to interfere."


    Han Sui said, "the problem is that you are about to fall into Chang''an."


    Zhang xiudao: "shocking!"


    The corner of his mouth rises, knowing that Han Sui''s next step must be to attack Chang''an. Such a move is to speak out in front of all the soldiers in the army, affect the morale of Zhang Xiu''s army, so that Zhang Xiu''s army can not go all out to fight.


    Morale is very important on the battlefield.


    The soldiers in the army have no morale, no heart to die, and no fighting spirit to fight and kill. This is a terrible thing.


    An army needs fighting spirit.


    This is exactly the soul of the army.


    When Han Sui heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was overjoyed. Zhang Xiu is really on the road. A word just gave him steps, so that he could shake off a simmer.


    Han Sui coughed twice, raised his head, and with the greatest strength, he said: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, do you really think that you are going to capture Chen Cang? Is that a willful act, a rash impulse?"


    "You are wrong!"


    "The first thing to use troops on the battlefield is planning."


    "Those who do not plan for the overall situation are not able to plan for the moment, and those who do not plan for the whole world are not able to plan for the moment. This will be in Chen Cang before sending troops, already and Hongnong county section simmer contact


    Han then said triumphantly: "you lead the army to send troops from Chang''an. After you leave Chang''an, you will follow up and attack Chang''an. You are about to lose the rear. Now, do you still want to attack Chencang? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Han Sui thought of his pride and couldn''t help laughing.


    He laughed at Zhang Xiu''s stupidity.


    I laugh at Marten''s stupidity.


    There is a section of simmer attack Chang''an, Zhang Xiu will be defeated. When Ma Xiu was defeated, Ma Teng couldn''t rescue him. In the case of Zhang Xiu''s defeat, it would be very easy to rescue him again.


    But Ma Teng sent out all night, so that he was defeated and captured by Zhang Xiu.


    You''re a fool.


    It''s a big fool.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu also laughed.


    Just now, as soon as Han Sui''s voice fell, Zhang Xiu noticed the agitation of the soldiers in her army and the whispered comments. Everyone knows that if Chang''an is lost, the rear area will be lost, and the soldiers in the army will also be worried.


    This is normal.


    But Zhang Xiu just wanted to use it, so let Han Sui explain it.Zhang Xiu''s laughter, let Han Sui Leng next, some accident. Immediately, Han stopped laughing and hummed: "Zhang Xiu, you pretend to laugh and calm down, but you can''t cover up the fact that you are guilty. You lost Chang''an, the rear area was unstable, and the supply of grain and grass was cut off. It would have been up to you to attack Chencang county. "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "Han Sui, what I will laugh at is that you are too stupid and too self righteous. You think you have a unique stratagem, but you don''t know that your little stratagem is really difficult to achieve


    "Rampant!"


    Han suilang said: "even if you say so, it can''t cover up the fact that you lost behind."


    Han Sui is extremely cunning.


    He stares at the loss of Chang''an and says that he wants to make Zhang Xiu lose heart.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu shakes her sleeves, the overlord''s gun turns in the air, and then she inserts it on the ground. She says in a loud voice, "Han Sui, you think the stratagem is matchless, but you don''t know that you have been seen through by this general for a long time."


    "Do you know that when Ben left Chang''an, he mobilized Chen Dao, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to fight. All the troops left Chang''an in a mighty way, leaving no soldiers in Chang''an. "


    "On the surface, Chang''an is empty."


    "Actually, it''s not."


    "Today, Chen Dao and Gan Ning are the only ones left by Ben Jiang, and Huang Zhong has never appeared. Not long after leaving Chang''an, Huang Zhong went back with the army and hid in Chang''an, waiting for Duan to take the bait. "


    "You think the scheme is perfect, but you don''t know that Ben will have set a trap."


    Zhang Xiu held up her head and said in a voice: "your little trick is really bad. I don''t have the heart to tear you down, because I''m afraid you will be sad. Especially now, I''m afraid Duan Wen has sent troops and the arrow has come out of the string. Even if you want to inform Duan Wen to withdraw, it''s too late. Duan simmer will be defeated, and so will you, Han Sui. "


    Brush!


    Han Sui''s face suddenly changed.


    How is that possible?


    Zhang Xiu even early insight into his intention, but also set a trap, waiting for the section simmer hook.


    At this moment, Han Sui was flustered.


    He thought that if he calculated Zhang Xiu, he would make Zhang Xiu lose heart. But after Zhang Xiu finished her sentence, the morale of the soldiers in the army was uplifted, and the smiles on their faces were relieved.


    They were determined.


    They believe what Zhang Xiu said.


    Because since she followed Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu has been like this. She has always been victorious in the battlefield. The morale of the soldiers turned around because of Zhang Xiu''s words. They all grasped the weapons in their hands and looked at the county seat of Chencang county with high morale in their eyes.


    This curtain fell in Han Sui''s eyes, which made Han Sui''s cheek twitch and felt his face crackle.


    I was beaten in the face.


    I was beaten too hard by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 301

    Han Sui pretended to be powerful and sighed: "Zhang Xiu, although you say so, who knows if what you say is true or false. What if you deliberately lie in order to stabilize the morale of the army? "


    "Lying on purpose?"


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "Han Sui, this general, the commander of Sili and the general of Zhennan, is it necessary to lie to you?"


    "A lie will be exposed in the end."


    "If Ben is lying now, when the war is over, all the soldiers in the army will know that Ben is lying. Who will believe what Ben will say then. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "credibility is accumulated bit by bit, this will never deceive, do not lie, also disdain in such things, lie to deceive soldiers."


    Han Sui has a toothache.


    Zhang Xiu really has sharp teeth and sharp mouth.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu arrives in Chencang County, Han Sui and Zhang Xiu have a verbal confrontation. Han Sui has always been passive and controlled by Zhang Xiu. He is completely led by the other side.


    This makes Han Sui helpless.


    Han Sui takes a deep breath. He doesn''t plan to talk nonsense with Zhang Xiu any more.


    It doesn''t help to keep talking nonsense.


    Han then took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, stop talking nonsense. If you want to attack Chencang County, you will be waiting for you here and see the truth with your strength. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that you are poor at words and don''t know how to fight back. Well, if you don''t talk about it, it''s Ben''s turn to talk about it now. "


    "Come on, bring Yan Xing up."


    Zhang Xiu ordered him to go down.


    With an order, the soldiers escorted the bound Yan Xing out.


    At the moment, Yan Xing looks down and out.


    It''s made up.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu has already recruited Yan Xing to surrender. In order to deal with Han Sui, it is more convenient to stabilize Han Sui and successfully rescue Yan Xing''s mother, so she let Yan Xing play a role.


    Zhang Xiubai pointed to Yan Xing and said in a loud voice, "Han Sui, have you seen Yan Xing?"


    Han Sui saw this and frowned.


    This damned Yan Xing.


    When Yan Xing was caught, Han Sui expected that this might be the case. Although Han Sui has long thought of a way to deal with it, things are always quite difficult.


    Han Sui said: "Zhang Xiu, even if you catch Yan Xing, what can you do?"


    With a smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said, "Yan Xing is a great general under Han Sui''s command. He is the person you rely on most. Now, do you really ignore Yan Xing''s life for the sake of Chencang county? "


    "As long as you quit Chencang, Ben will promise to release Yan Xing."


    "A gentleman''s word is hard to follow."


    "As long as you agree, I will never go back."


    Zhang xiudao: "now for Yan Xing''s life, are you willing to quit Chencang county?"


    "No way!"


    Han Sui didn''t even think about it and refused.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Han Sui, have you ever heard a sentence. Save people and lose land; save land and lose people and lose people and land. As long as you change back to Yan Xing, he is bound to die for you. But if you don''t care about his life, isn''t it chilling? "


    "No need!"


    Han Sui answered firmly.


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, disdain way: "unfortunately, it is a pity that Yan Xing''s ability.". Yan Xing''s ability is outstanding, but he follows the wrong person. He devoted himself to you, Han Sui, and would rather die than surrender. I didn''t expect that you, Han Sui, were so cold hearted. "


    "Soldiers of Han Sui on the tower, did you see this scene?"


    "Han Sui''s most important general, Yan Xing, fell into his own hands. Han Sui, your general, would rather guard a cold Chencang County than return to Yan Xing. "


    "Han Sui had the chance to save Yan Xing, but he was so cold that he didn''t care."


    "Do you want to be loyal to such people?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she continued: "Han Sui didn''t even care about such an important person as Yan Xing, not to mention the ordinary soldiers in your army. If I were you, I would not be loyal to Han Sui. "


    "You all listen carefully. Han Sui gave it to you. Zhang Xiu can give it to you."


    "In Zhang Xiu''s army, no one dares to embezzle the salary, no one dares to bully the soldiers. This general can guarantee that the salary of our soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command is absolutely higher than that of your soldiers under Han Sui''s command. "


    Zhang Xiu wants to plot against Han Sui''s army and disintegrate their morale.


    Of course, Zhang Xiu knows that it is impossible to really rebel, because under the suppression of Han Sui, it is impossible for anyone to come out now. But through these words, at least let Han Sui''s military morale turbulence.


    Let the heart float.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    Han then secretly scolded Zhang Xiu for being cunning, and even more shameless. He yelled: "Zhang Xiu, it''s really a shame for you to rebel against my soldiers regardless of your face."


    "Ben will tell you that my soldiers can''t follow you."


    "Yan Xing, there''s no way."


    "Fighting on the battlefield is a matter of losing one''s head. To fight in battle is either to be killed or to be captured. Yan Xing became a prisoner. It would have been impossible for him to ignore Chencang County, which was defeated by countless soldiers for the sake of just one Yan Xing. ""If I withdraw from Chencang County, it will be Chencang county that has lost countless soldiers in exchange for small losses."


    Han Sui forcibly explained, "would I rather fail a Yan Xing, or would I rather fail thousands of soldiers?"


    "The answer is obvious!"


    "The lesser of the two evils would have been the only way."


    "Yan Xing, you are a general in the army. It''s not easy to know who you are. But please rest assured that your relatives of Yan Xing are my relatives of Han Sui. Yan Xing''s mother is Han Sui''s mother. "


    "What you did to them, what Ben would have done to them."


    Han Sui said, "I won''t let you down."


    Yan Xing listened, but felt ironic. In fact, Han Sui is threatening Yan Xing to solve his own problems.


    In order to avoid Han Sui''s dilemma.


    Yan Xing is glad that the gains and losses have been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu has arranged to take his mother to Liangzhou.


    Yan Xing didn''t speak.


    At this time, we have to give it to Zhang Xiu to solve the problem.


    After hearing Han Sui''s words, Zhang Xiu tut tut said in two voices: "Han Sui, Han Sui, I''m going to see you white. A person like you has no conscience but interests first. "


    "You are too powerful."


    "Neither Yan Xing nor the soldiers under your command are your comrades, nor the people you entrusted with life and death. They are just your pieces. They are just tools you use. "


    "Everything, that''s all."


    "But the soldiers on the battlefield are all living people, flesh and blood, not cold instruments, not without ideas. Soldiers, are you really willing to follow such a cold-blooded man as Han Sui? "


    Zhang Xiu once again bewitches, intending to influence the morale of the soldiers in Han Sui''s army.


    Brush!


    Han Sui''s face darkened again.


    Zhang Xiu is a hateful man.


    Just staring at him, Han Sui constantly resents him, but Han Sui is really hard to refute. In particular, Han Sui''s eyes turned and fell on the faces of countless soldiers around him. When he saw many soldiers whispering, his face suddenly cooled down.


    Zhang Xiu''s words have shaken his morale.


    Han Suiming has considered that Zhang Xiu may use Yan Xing, but he never thought that Zhang Xiu''s means are so fierce, which will make the situation so difficult and make him so troublesome.


    Han Sui did not expect this.


    Han Sui said: "Zhang Xiu, if you have the ability, attack Chencang county. Although the two Zhang high city is not very strong, it is more than enough to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu. "


    He no longer talks nonsense with Zhang Xiu.


    If you suffer in front of Zhang Xiu, you won''t say much.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu continued: "Han Sui, do you really care whether Yan Xing is alive or dead?"


    Han Sui stood on the tower and said nothing.


    He no longer pays attention to Zhang Xiu.


    He can see that at this time and Zhang Xiu continue to talk, Zhang Xiu will be holding on. Instead, it would be better to ignore Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 302

    Knowing what she said, Zhang Xiu completely shut Han Sui up and depressed the morale of Han Sui''s army.


    Besides, Han Sui is useless.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for the soldiers to take Yan Xing down.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not intend to let Han Sui go. She continued: "Han Sui, the 8000 elite soldiers led by Yan Xing were captured except for a few who died. Now you stay in Chencang County, don''t you care about their lives? They, however, are the people who have gone through life and death for you. Now, is it okay to pat your ass? "


    Han Sui''s cheek twitched slightly.


    Zhang Xiu is so tired.


    If you want to fight, you can''t stop talking.


    This makes Han Sui very upset.


    Han Sui still swallowed his anger and did not pay attention to Zhang Xiu. He is afraid that when he opens his mouth, Zhang Xiu will pick him up again.


    Don''t talk at all.


    But if he doesn''t speak, he can''t help taking Zhang Xiu. The soldiers under his command whisper to each other, which greatly affects the morale of the army.


    Han Sui was oppressed.


    What is this?


    When he talks, Zhang Xiu will make him speechless. Especially in Zhang Xiu''s mouth gun, he is completely invincible. He didn''t speak, but was provoked by Zhang Xiu, which affected the morale of the army.


    It''s hard to say or not.


    At this moment, Han Sui felt that Zhang Xiu outside the city was really hard to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu, once a hairy boy, was willful and rebellious. Like Ma Chao, she was a brave and resourceless person. But today''s Zhang Xiu, obviously very different, extremely cunning, but also makes him speechless.


    It''s too hard to deal with.


    Han Sui could only bear Zhang Xiu''s criticism without saying a word.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a loud voice again, "ma''er, are you on the tower? Your master Zhang is here. How dare you come out and see him? "


    He is not polite to Ma Chao.


    Like Ma Chao such arrogant people, the more he and amiable, the more he was despised by Ma Chao. Of course, Ma Chao is also easy to deal with, that is to motivate and stimulate, constantly motivate Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao in the tower, a hear Zhang Xiu shout, immediately anger up. He fought with Zhang Xiu and was stabbed in the body by Zhang Xiu. Although he has a good foundation, the wound has scabbed and recovered in a short time.


    However, Ma Chao still remembers the scene when Zhang Xiu stabbed him in the shoulder.


    If Zhang Xiu is not killed, he vows not to be a human being.


    He had to be ashamed.


    Ma Chao step out, will be close to the tower. Han Sui a flash, to Ma Chao''s body, blocking way: "Meng Qi, Zhang Xiu this son is good at stirring up dissension, more good at using force to fight, you don''t talk to him, ignore it."


    At this time, Han adjusted his plan.


    In Han Sui''s original plan, he hoped to attack Ma Chao with the help of Zhang Xiu, so that Ma Chao would fall into a situation of injustice and become the villain of everyone''s criticism.


    As long as Ma Chao ignored the news of Ma Teng''s death and sent it back to Liangzhou, it would be as easy for Han to deal with Ma Chao.


    But now, Han then changed his mind.


    Zhang Xiu is not a simple boy.


    In the case that Zhang Xiu has damaged the morale of his troops, in case Zhang Xiu attacks Ma Chao again, the combat effectiveness of Ma Chao''s soldiers will be damaged, which will be very unfavorable to the defense of Chencang county.


    In particular, Chang''an may be unreliable, and he should be more cautious.


    If Duan''s attack on Chang''an is successful enough to take off the rear of Zhang Xiu, then Han Sui feels no pressure. However, in the present situation, Han Sui did not dare to take any more risks.


    Han Sui wanted to stop it for Ma Chao''s sake.


    Ma Chao shook his head and said solemnly, "uncle, this is my own business."


    Han Sui said: "Meng Qi, don''t be impulsive."


    "It''s not impulsive!"


    Ma Chao solemnly said: "under the current situation, if Zhang Xiu comes to provoke me, Ma Chao will not dare to see him or reply. Then how can I get a foothold, how can I meet the soldiers in the army, and how can I convince them? "


    "Don''t stop me, uncle!"


    Ma Chao''s tone is a little cold.


    With that, Ma Chao pressed his hand directly on Han Sui''s shoulder. With a little force, Han Sui was directly pushed away, and Ma Chao stepped forward to the wall of the city.


    He stood on the city tower, his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu, and there was a voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, last time I lost to you, it was the first battle. I was defeated by fighting with you. You''re just taking advantage. "


    Zhang Xiu was amused.


    So far, Ma Chao has been bitter about his previous failure.


    It''s a battle.


    It''s not a personal contest.


    Personal competition and personal victory and defeat are of little use to a war. For Zhang Xiu, if the individual contest, for the whole battle, there is no help, Zhang Xiu will not hand.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s cognition.


    Zhang xiulang said: "ma''er, you were defeated last time. If you lose, you will lose. Your horse is in Xiliang. It''s said that you are invincible all over XiliangMa Chao gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you have the ability to fight again."


    Zhang Xiu looked as if she was not impatient and said: "it''s OK to fight. Why do I fear a battle? But before the contest, come on, Ben will show you two. "


    "Come on, bring people up."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    After Zhang Xiu''s order was given, the rear soldiers escorted two people out.


    Ma Teng was the leader, followed by Ma Xiu.


    This is Ma Teng''s first time to see Ma Xiu. As soon as the father and son met, they were filled with tears. After Ma Teng is taken by Zhang Xiu, he wants to follow the trend and then find a way to escape.


    The problem is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t admit him or let him see Ma Xiu.


    Now I''m completely relieved to see Matthew intact.


    Zhang Xiu pointed to Ma Teng and Ma Xiu and said, "ma''er, have you seen Ma Teng and Ma Xiu? Now they are all prisoners in the hands of the general. "


    Ma Chao said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, are you going to threaten me with the lives of my father and my second younger brother?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "so what?"


    Ma Chao said: "don''t you think it''s shameful for Zhang Xiu to do such a dirty thing?"


    "Disgrace?"


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed, shook her head and said, "it''s a naive horse. It''s a fight on the battlefield, not a joke. If I lose face, Zhang Xiu can win without fighting and avoid the possibility of soldiers fighting with their lives, I would rather lose face. "


    "The battlefield is a place to fight with one''s life, not a joke."


    "Ma''er, I feel sad for you when I hear what you just said."


    Zhang Xiu said sarcastically: "you have a big body, but you are five big and three thick, and your body is even bigger. The problem is that all the brains grow in the flesh of the body. There is no brain. "


    Ma Chao was furious.


    Zhang Xiu a horse''s address, wantonly humiliate him, it is hateful.


    Ma Chao clenched his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t try to show off her tongue. I''ll ask you, "dare you fight?"


    "Dare


    Zhang Xiu answered without hesitation and continued: "but now, it''s not the time for you and me to compete. At least, we have to deal with the immediate affairs before we can fight. "


    "Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, as well as many soldiers of the Ma family army, are in my hands."


    "As long as you don''t suffer from the threat of life and death, then you can give up


    Zhang Xiu said: "but if you don''t agree, Ma Teng and Ma Xiu will suffer and will be killed in the end."


    Ma Chao said: "Zhang Xiu, you are shameless!"


    "Shameless?"


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, shake head way: "this is shameless?"? This is the simplest description of shamelessness that Ben will hear. Ma Chao, Ben will give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. A quarter of an hour later, if you refuse my offer, then marten and Matthew will be broken in one leg first. "


    "I refuse!"


    Ma Chao answered without hesitation.


    He is not under threat.


    Even without Han Sui''s reminding and time consideration, Ma Chao gave the answer.

 Chapter 303

    Ma Chao''s eyes swept over Ma Teng and Ma Xiu. There was a trace of impatience in his eyes. But immediately, it was replaced by firmness. There was a voice on the ground: "I, Ma Chao, don''t accept any threat. Even if you interrupt them, I won''t change anything. "


    "What a cruel Ma Chao."


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes admire Ma Chao''s ruthlessness.


    But think about it, it''s normal.


    In history, Ma Chao ignored the lives of Ma Teng and Ma Xiu in order to fight against Cao Cao, which eventually led to the death of Ma Teng and Ma Xiu in the hands of Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Ma Teng, saying: "Ma Teng, it seems that you can''t keep one of your legs."


    Marten was in a hurry.


    It''s hard to deal with a broken leg.


    It''s even more unacceptable to have a broken leg for a hundred days. At that time, he broke a leg and could not command the army or gallop.


    Ma Teng''s anger surged up and roared: "Ma Chao, you villain."


    In a word, it reverberates inside and outside the city.


    All the soldiers heard it.


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose and raised a smile, which he had expected for a long time. Ma Teng is not Yan Xing, what''s more, Yan Xing has decided to submit to Zhang Xiu, so Zhang Xiu speaks, but Yan Xing doesn''t need to speak.


    Marten is different.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t invite Ma Teng to surrender.


    Ma Teng was worried about himself and had to speak.


    Ma Teng speaks with more weight than Zhang Xiu. He stared at Ma Chao on the upper floor of the city, and continued: "Ma Chao, immediately follow Zhang Xiu''s order, mobilize the army to withdraw from Chencang County, now withdraw, and no more resistance.


    Han Chao asked Chen Chao to withdraw.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Ma Teng, I didn''t let Ma Chao quit Chencang county. I let him attack Han Sui. If Ma Chao doesn''t cooperate, it will be impossible to release people. "


    Brush!


    Ma Teng''s face suddenly changed.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu didn''t give him any leeway.


    Ma Teng took a deep breath and continued: "Ma Chao, the life of your father and your second brother are in the hands of Zhang Xiu. You can''t resist any more. Now mobilize your forces to attack Han Sui directly. "


    "No way!"


    Ma Chao refused again.


    He was not in awe of Ma Teng, and Ma Chao didn''t like Ma Xiu, let alone Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Ma Chao said: "father, in the battlefield, if you die or I die, I will not give in to Zhang Xiu. If you are captured by Zhang Xiu, you may be killed. But please don''t worry, as long as I beat Zhang Xiu, I will surely avenge you. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Ma Teng was furious.


    I didn''t expect that Ma Chao was so stubborn that he didn''t want to help him.


    Ma Teng said: "Ma Chao, if you don''t save Ben Jiang, you are not Ben Jiang''s son. I don''t want to be with you, marten. "


    Ma Chao brushed his sleeve and said, "cut off the relationship, then cut off the relationship. I don''t care. Anyway, in your eyes of marten, you never regard me as your son. Your favorite person is Matthew. "


    At the moment, Ma Chao''s words reverberate on the city tower.


    When the soldiers in the army heard this, they talked and frowned.


    Ma Chao doesn''t care about Ma Teng''s life. It''s wrong!


    After all, Ma Chao is Ma Teng''s son.


    Son does not speak of father''s fault!


    How can a son sit back and ignore his father?


    Even though the people in Xiliang are rebellious and fierce, and are not influenced by Confucian etiquette, the people know the relationship between father and son, and the soldiers in the army know the friendship between father and son.


    Ma Chao was even more furious when he heard the comments of a group of soldiers. His eyes were sharp, and his eyes swept over the soldiers who belonged to him on the city tower. In an instant, they were all silent and no longer spoke.


    Everyone knows Ma Chao''s strength.


    No one dares to provoke Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao turned to Ma Teng and gritted his teeth: "Ma Teng, you think I won''t save you, so you think I won''t save you. You''re a prisoner of Zhang Xiu''s life. You''re asking for it. "


    "Originally, I told you not to send troops, but you have to send troops."


    "It led me to save you and damage thousands of elite riders."


    "Now, if I want to save you, I have to kill myself and be controlled by Zhang Xiu. At that time, either you or I will become the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board. "


    "If Zhang Xiu wants to kill us, she can easily crush us."


    "If I don''t save you, I won''t be threatened by Zhang Xiu. As long as I''m here, you''re safe. If Zhang Xiu dares to kill you, even if I go to the ends of the earth, I will avenge you and my second brother. "


    Ma Chao tossed in a voice: "father, please understand my position."


    "Forgive me!"


    Ma Teng said angrily: "bastard, evil son, regardless of Lao Tzu''s life or death, he speaks very well. I don''t have a son like you. All my soldiers listen. Ma Chao is not my son. You don''t have to be loyal to him. "Zhang Xiu answered and said, "Ma Chao, you just said I want to kill you. You can easily crush you. Once you obey my orders, you will be the fish on the chopping board. That''s a big mistake."


    "I, Zhang Xiu, swear to heaven that as long as you Ma Chao are willing to submit to our general, we will not weaken your military power or kill you. If you disobey this oath, heaven will strike thunder. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Ma Chao, take the oath as proof, what else do you have to say?"


    Ma Chao was dumbfounded.


    The ancients attached great importance to the oath, Zhang Xiu even made an oath, which shows Zhang Xiu''s sincerity.


    In this case, Ma Chao''s soldiers looked at each other one by one, beating drums in their hearts. Although they are loyal to Ma Chao, they are his direct subordinates, but with Zhang Xiu''s continuous cutting, the loyalty of the soldiers to Ma Chao has declined.


    When the soldiers looked at Zhang Xiu, they were less willing to kill and fight.


    "No!"


    When Han Sui saw this, he had a bad idea.


    Previously, he had a dialogue with Zhang Xiu, which was speechless by Zhang Xiu, and then the morale of the army was also affected.


    Today, Ma Chao is the same.


    Han Sui stepped forward and grabbed Ma Chao''s back to make him back. Facing Zhang Xiu, he said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, if you have the ability, you can attack Chencang county directly. Don''t talk nonsense. A big man, haw Wai wow, mother-in-law, people look down upon. If you want to kill it, you can kill it. I''ll take all the skills you have to attack. "


    Ma Chao doesn''t speak at the moment.


    It''s really in front of Zhang Xiu that he is so disgusted that he has nothing to say. Previously, he wanted to compete with Zhang Xiu, but at this time, Ma Chao had already put out his mind.


    Ma Chao just wants to compete with Zhang Xiu in martial arts.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Ma Chao, for the sake of power, regardless of the lives of Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, you are disappointing and even more vain. You are merciless to Ma Teng and Ma Xiu. I can''t do that to Zhang Xiu. I''m not going to hurt them. I''m going to bring people down


    The soldiers came forward and escorted Ma Teng and Ma Xiu back.


    Han Sui''s face turned black.


    Zhang Xiu is so cunning. If she doesn''t answer him, she will give Ma Chao another shot. When Ma Chao doesn''t speak, he will slander Ma Chao and disturb the morale of his soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Han Sui, I''m going to fight against you. You, Han Sui and Ma Chao, have committed heinous crimes, but we will only punish the first villain, not the innocent. Ben will give the soldiers a chance. Today, Ben will not attack Chencang county. Tomorrow morning, the army will attack the city. "


    "Withdraw!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order to retreat.


    The army immediately retreated and prepared to camp nearby.


    Han Sui looks at the back of Zhang Xiu''s leaving, and his face is iron green. He secretly said that Zhang Xiu was hateful. It was clearly Zhang Xiu''s intention to disturb his morale, even to make the soldiers escape, and even to make the soldiers mutiny.


    Because in this verbal confrontation, two images have been set up.


    The first is the villain image of Ma Chao and Han Sui.


    Second, Zhang Xiu is righteous and just.


    Under such circumstances, many simple soldiers in the army will be affected.

 Chapter 304

    Han then looked at Zhang Xiu''s back and looked back at his soldiers. Listening to the voice of the discussion, his heart was in a burst of fire. He ordered: "no discussion in the army. Those who violate the order will be killed!"


    He gave the order, turned and left.


    Ma Chao also left.


    However, after Han Sui and Ma Chaogang left, the soldiers in the army talked again. The expression on each face is very complicated, thinking about Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Not to mention the change of the soldiers in Han Sui''s army, Zhang Xiu retreated five li with the army, and then ordered the soldiers to camp.


    The army encamped, the Chinese army had a big account.


    Gan Ning, Chen Dao and others were responsible for the placement of soldiers and continued to reorganize the surrender army.


    Zhang Xiu called Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong to discuss the next countermeasures.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at the three men and said, "today I have a word with Han Sui and Ma Chao, which shakes their morale and makes their morale in chaos. I estimate that in the future, some soldiers will be dissatisfied. The soldiers under Han Sui did not dare to rebel, but at least their impression of Han Sui changed greatly. And Ma Chao''s soldiers, I''m afraid there will be resistance to Ma Chao


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "my Lord''s eloquence and eloquent words have greatly reduced the morale of Han Sui''s army. Today''s eloquence is really exciting. "


    Li Ru said: "Han Sui, the old fox, was not inferior to Dong Xiang in the past. He always asked for benefits and never suffered losses. Today, I''m a mute. I can''t say what I''ve suffered. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "I like to see Ma Chao eat shriveled. Ma Chao''s eyes were higher than the top, and he was rebellious and arrogant, but he was scolded speechless in front of the Lord. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "because of Yan Xing, Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, we can succeed naturally."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "at present, there are still more than 10000 elite soldiers in Chencang county. Even though the city of Chencang county is not very solid, our troops are not much more than Han Sui and Ma Chao. It''s not cost-effective to attack. What do you suggest?"


    Pang Tong took the initiative to say, "Lord, there is a way to be humble."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the plan?"


    Pang Tong said excitedly, "since Han Sui and Ma Chao ignore Yan Xing and Ma Teng, we can arrange for people to deliberately spread news to the city, saying that they should take Yan Xing and Ma Teng to Xiliang."


    "In this way, Ma Teng and Han Sui are bound to fight."


    "It''s a conspiracy."


    "It''s forcing Ma Teng and Han Sui out of the city."


    Pang Tong''s strategy was always pondered on his way to Chencang. With a confident smile on his face, he said: "Liangzhou is the rear of Han Sui and the home of Ma Chao. If Liangzhou is lost, Han Sui will completely lose his home and Ma Chao will be in trouble. They can''t be stable. As long as Han Sui and Ma Chao leave the city, we can defeat each other. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    Pang Tong''s strategy is good.


    Han Sui and Ma Chao wanted to use Chencang County garrison to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    But Pang Tong''s stratagem, which seems to be Yang''s stratagem, is actually a drastic one. Even if Han Sui and Ma Chao know that this is a conspiracy, they must come out to rescue, because once Liangzhou is lost, Han Sui and Ma Chao will become rootless Ping.


    The most important thing is that there are Ma Teng and Yan Xing in Liangzhou. Ma Teng is the commander-in-chief of the Ma family army, and Yan Xing is the commander-in-chief of Han Sui. When they arrive in Liangzhou, they will inevitably lead to the situation in Liangzhou.


    This is predictable.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and Li Ru and said, "what do you think?"


    Jia Xu praised: "Lord, Pang Shangshu''s breakthrough point is excellent, which can be described as a clever plan. However, the corresponding details need to be further improved. "


    "For example, after learning the news, does Han Sui insist on going out of the city for a period of time? This involves adding another fire to Han Sui, making his army more chaotic and forcing him to leave the city. "


    "For another example, after Han Sui left the city, if he chose not to fight, how would he ambush Han Sui?"


    "Or, after Han Sui left the city, he came to our barracks, and the two sides met each other. How can we win Han Sui?"


    "It''s all in advance."


    Jia Xu said: "in the art of war, if the husband does not fight and the temple counts the winner, he must count the more; if the temple counts the less, he must count the less. If you can infer all kinds of things in advance, then you can devise strategies and make Han Sui have no way to go. "


    Pang Tong admired Jia Xu''s words.


    That''s something he didn''t think about.


    Pang Tong came from futushan to Chencang county. He had been thinking about the ambush. He finally came up with an excellent entry point, but he didn''t consider more details.


    Jia Xu directly made up for the lack of details.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Wenhe, what do you think should be done about the details?"


    Jia Xu said: "Lord, it''s easy!"


    "First, arrange the soldiers to go outside the city tower of Chencang County, bind the news with bows and arrows, and recruit the troops of Han Sui and Ma Chao. Any soldier who is willing to submit to the Lord can be reused. "


    "Second, bind the news with bows and arrows, and spread the news that Ma Teng and Yan Xing were arranged to go to Liangzhou.""Two pieces of news are enough to make Han Sui in a hurry."


    Jia Xu said, "third, arrange a general to ambush on the road from Chencang county to Liangzhou. Whether Han Sui and Ma Chao withdraw or retreat after attacking us, they will withdraw. "


    "Find a place to ambush."


    "Fourth, prepare for Han Sui''s attack, arrange soldiers around the barracks, and lay an ambush. Once han suisha comes, he will work hard to defeat the other side. "


    Jia Xu said: "as for Chencang County, you don''t have to worry about it. Because Chencang county is already a chicken rib for Han Sui. He can''t go back. After all, he can''t keep it


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s face was full of praise and said, "yes, Wenhe is very careful."


    Pang Tong also said, "I admire Mr. Jia''s arrangement."


    He made a general plan, but did not ponder over the detailed arrangements. According to the big plan, Jia Xu predicted every step in the future. This is what Jia Xu is good at.


    Zhang Xiu also does not delay time, immediately called to Deng Zhan, let Deng Zhan ready to put the news thing.


    There are not many literate people in the army.


    It took some time to write notes. Half an hour later, Deng zhancai mobilized 100 soldiers and left the barracks in a hurry to go to the South Gate of Chencang county.


    When one hundred people arrived at the east gate, Deng Zhan didn''t say much. He immediately ordered the soldiers to draw bows and take arrows, and began to shoot arrows on the city floor.


    "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"


    All of a sudden, the soldiers stationed on the tower saw this and cried out.


    As soon as they saw the attack, they became nervous. But after the soldiers yelled twice, when they were ready to shout again, they suddenly stopped, because there were only more than 100 archers outside the city, and they didn''t see any more enemies.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows, flying to the city tower.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the bow and arrow fell on the tower, or hit the beam of the tower, or flew into the city.


    A bow and arrow, scattered everywhere.


    Deng Zhan ordered the soldiers to shoot arrows continuously. Each soldier shot ten bows and arrows, and a thousand bows and arrows tied with notes were shot to the top of the city.


    After finishing all this, Deng Zhan ordered to retreat, with soldiers quickly retreat.


    The soldiers on the tower soon found the clue.


    One by one, the soldiers opened the note. Although most of the soldiers did not know the characters, there were literate people in the army. When one of them knew the contents of the note, the news of Zhang Xiu''s surrender spread.


    In addition, the news that Ma Teng and Yan Xing were going to Liangzhou soon spread.


    At this moment, the soldiers in the army were flustered.


    Liangzhou is the base camp. Once Liangzhou is lost, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    "What are you looking at? Give me all the notes, bows and arrows. All the notes will be confiscated. If there are people hiding, there will be no amnesty. "


    A cold voice resounded from the upper story of the south gate.


    But Han Sui came.

 Chapter 305

    Han Sui has been on the upper floor of the city to avoid a surprise attack by Zhang Xiu. From the room above, the soldiers rushed out of the city immediately.


    As soon as they came out, they encountered the situation of soldiers reading the news on the bow and arrow.


    This made Han Sui furious.


    Han then ordered the seizure. Although the soldiers handed in all the bows, arrows and notes that had been shot into the city tower, the news had spread and it was impossible to cover the lid again.


    Even if Han Sui wanted to stop it, he could not.


    Han Sui took the note and scanned it quickly. When he finished reading it, his face was even more livid.


    Damn it!


    It''s disgusting.


    Zhang Xiu, who had nothing to do with it, even wanted to recruit his soldiers and let Ma Teng and Yan Xing go to Liangzhou.


    It''s a dig for him.


    In normal times, Han Sui is not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s solicitation. But now, regardless of Yan Xing''s life or death, the soldiers in the army are talking about it and their minds are changing, which is very easy to be incited.


    Han then immediately turned to the room and arranged for the soldiers to invite Ma Chao to discuss the matter.


    Soon, Ma Chao entered the camp.


    Ma Chao arched his hand and said, "uncle asked me to come. What''s the matter?"


    Han Sui''s face was dignified, and said: "just now Zhang Xiu arranged for people to shoot arrows to the city floor. One is to call down the soldiers in your army and let them surrender out of the city; the other is to let Ma Teng and Yan Xing go to Liangzhou together, so that they can control Liangzhou."


    Ma Chao immediately frowned.


    He and Ma Teng have completely broken up, so he doesn''t want Ma Teng to return to Liangzhou.


    If marten goes back, what will he do?


    At this time, Ma Chao hopes to defeat Zhang Xiu first, then win back Ma Teng with victory, and finally take Ma Teng back to Liangzhou to take over all the power of the Ma family.


    Only in this way can it be regarded as satisfactory.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement broke Ma Chao''s plan and changed Ma Chao''s plan.


    Ma Chao''s heart was in a mess for a moment, and he asked, "uncle, what''s your plan?"


    "I''m going to wait and see for two days," Han Sui said


    "First, although Zhang Xiu wants to recruit and surrender our soldiers, I am confident that I can still control the soldiers in the army. No one can really dare to leave the general''s army."


    "Defection, they dare not."


    "Second, Zhang Xiu said that he arranged for Yan Xing and Ma Teng to go to Liangzhou, but Yan Xing could not move the army without my order. In particular, if Ma Teng returns to Liangzhou alone, he will not be able to convince the Qiang people who are obedient to the Ma family without the army around him. "


    "If Zhang Xiu really wants to do this, at least he has to arrange an army escort."


    "Otherwise, it''s bluffing."


    Han Sui''s face still had a touch of self-confidence and strength, and said: "in the current situation, I think so. My dear nephew, I hope you can act with me without arrogance and rashness. "


    "No problem!"


    Ma Chao nodded his head.


    He was not very good at military strategy, and Han Sui was good at it, so he believed in Han Sui.


    When Han Sui saw Ma Chao''s support, he also showed a smile on his face and continued: "good nephew, as long as you and I work together, cooperate sincerely and help each other, we will be able to tide over the difficulties."


    "Although Zhang Xiu said that he left Huang Zhong to simmer in the ambush section of Chang''an, the section simmer is not a fuel-efficient lamp."


    "Behind Duan''s simmering, there is Cao Cao''s support."


    "With Duan''s strength and cunning, he can''t be defeated easily. Before the last moment, we have to hold on. If you stick to it for a day or two, you may have a chance to win


    Han Sui said, "if you don''t insist, all your previous achievements may be wasted."


    Ma Chao said, "what my uncle said is true."


    Han Sui waved his hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Ma Chao arched his hand, went out of the room, went down the city tower, and soon came to the place where the army was stationed in the city.


    Ma Chao has just returned to the Chinese army. Pound is here.


    Pound''s face was dignified and worried.


    Ma Chao asked, "Ling Ming, but what happened?"


    "Yes


    Pound nodded and replied: "young man, I just visited the barracks and also went to the city upstairs. Along the way, I heard the soldiers muttering. Some said that Zhang Xiu was recruiting and surrender, and how well Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were treated."


    "Some soldiers said that if Zhang Xiu wanted Yan Xing and the general to go back to Liangzhou, he had to take control of Liangzhou first."


    "All kinds of news, one after another."


    "I''ve heard many soldiers say that they all think highly of Zhang Xiu, not Han Sui and us. In the next battle, our morale has been lost and our fighting capacity is weak, which is very unfavorable to us. "


    "Under this premise, if you fight with Zhang Xiu, you will be easily defeated."


    Pound suggested: "I think it''s not suitable for me to stay in Chencang county at the moment. I''ll withdraw now. I won''t fight with Zhang Xiu. I won''t take charge of the second childe and General Ma. I''ll withdraw to Liangzhou first and take over the military power and control all the forces with the authority of the childe.""No!"


    Ma Chao shook his head firmly and said in a voice: "Ling Ming, this is a great opportunity for me to fight with Zhang Xiu."


    "I''ll never miss it!"


    "I went to futu mountain with my soldiers to rescue my father and fight with Zhang Xiu. The reason why I was defeated was because of my lack of strength. What''s more, if Zhang Xiu wants to recruit and surrender our soldiers, it''s impossible to succeed. "


    Ma Chao said: "even if Zhang Xiu threatens to let her father and Yan Xing return to Liangzhou, they have no right without soldiers. How can they control their power so easily?"


    "The only way to go is to send Han away."


    "As for my father''s return to Liangzhou, it was not easy for him to control military power. Before that, my father was surrounded by the army and my cavalry, which could frighten many Qiang leaders. Now that there is nothing left, can the Qiang people be convinced? "


    "It''s not that easy."


    Ma Chao said: "Ling Ming, although our situation is not very good, it is not too bad."


    Pound frowned.


    Ma Chao is too confident.


    In other words, Ma Chao is too optimistic about things. What Ma Chao said just now is based on the best situation.


    Once the situation is unfavorable, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    Pound said again, "don''t believe Han Sui''s words. Han Sui is an old fox, very treacherous, he is not worth believing. If you believe Han Sui, maybe you don''t know that Han Sui sold you. "


    Ma Chao said: "Ling Ming, I know very well what Han Sui is. He''s not worth believing, and I know that. The reason why I want to stay is to fight against Zhang Xiu, which is the purpose of my stay. "


    "The rest, I don''t care."


    "I just want to fight with Zhang Xiu, a snow before shame, let Zhang Xiu know Xiliang machao is not easy to deal with."


    Ma Chao said confidently: "I will win this battle."


    Pound frowned.


    He felt that Ma Chao was possessed and completely ignored the current situation.


    Pound thinks that Chencang county is not enough to guard against Zhang Xiu''s successive victories. In Chencang County, in particular, there is only more than one month left for grain production. Although the war may have ended for more than a month, pound thought it was inappropriate to take a risk.


    Pound opened his mouth to persuade.


    However, before he said it, Ma Chao brushed his sleeves and refused: "Ling Ming, I have made up my mind. You don''t have to persuade me any more. I need to fight this war. You can rest assured that most of our troops are cavalry. If things go wrong, we can withdraw immediately. "


    "Pound said:" just listen to the general


    "Get busy!"


    Ma Chao waved his hand.


    Pound saluted with his fist and turned to step back.


    Ma Chao, sitting alone in the camp, reached out and took off the golden gun from the weapon rack.


    Ma Chao took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, gently wiped the bright and sharp point of the gun, and said: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you and I use guns. Last time, I lost to you. This time, I won''t lose again. "

 Chapter 306

    A military camp in the city.


    In Han Sui''s army, although Han Sui ordered anyone not to talk about Zhang Xiu''s surrender. But in fact, it''s hard to stop you. In private, the soldiers are still talking about what they should talk about, and few people don''t.


    In a camp.


    There are six people together, whispering.


    These six were all generals of Han Sui''s army. The highest official position was Hu Wei, a partial general, and the lowest was Mabian, a centurion.


    Hu Wei has the highest official position and the strongest deterrent power. He looked at Mabian and others and said, "general Yan Xing was captured, so Han didn''t say anything. Let general Yan Xing be dealt with by Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s chilling."


    "I don''t agree."


    "We went from life to death for Han Sui, in exchange for such a result, I am not reconciled."


    Hu Wei clenched his fist and said angrily: "what''s more, Zhang Xiu is coming with the general trend. The army is so fierce that it can''t resist it. "


    "In my opinion, I''m afraid that even Yan Xing and Ma Teng may submit to Zhang Xiu."


    "Han Sui, it won''t last long."


    "In the present situation, if we follow Han Sui, I''m afraid we''ll end up dead but not alive."


    "Han Sui, in particular, ordered that no one should talk about Zhang Xiu in private. Even today''s lunch is starting to get worse, and there is no meat at all. "


    Hu Wei gritted his teeth and said, "I''ve had enough of these days. I don''t want to live any longer."


    Mabian immediately said, "I don''t want to do it any more."


    "Yes, Han Sui deceived people too much."


    "Han Sui couldn''t stop Zhang Xiu at all. He knew that he was invincible, but he wanted to fight to the death. It was clear that he didn''t treat us as human beings, and he didn''t think about our situation at the bottom. In my opinion, we''re going backwards. "


    "Yes, it is!"


    One by one, they all spoke with indignation. Under the command of Han Sui, they did not live well.


    On the one hand, Han Sui had already deducted his military pay, and his soldiers didn''t get much. Now, regardless of Yan Xing''s life or death, Han Sui made people feel cold and heartless. On the other hand, Han Sui is at a disadvantage, while Zhang Xiu is trying to drum up.


    So the general had an idea.


    "Silence! All be quiet. "


    Hu Wei gave a loud order, and all the people were silent.


    A pair of eyes fell on Hu Wei.


    Hu Wei look sharp, said: "anti, you take what anti?"? Han Sui is an old traitor with countless guards. It''s impossible to deal with him. "


    "Let''s lead our troops to attack Han Sui. It''s a suicide."


    "The only thing you can do is run away."


    "We don''t go out of the city through the east gate. There are too many soldiers there. In the evening, we quietly left the barracks and went out of the city through the south gate. Even if there are soldiers stationed at the south gate, we say that we will act according to the secret order of Han Sui. "


    "Only in this way can we get out."


    Hu Wei said: "in addition to any other plan, are looking for a dead end."


    Ma Bian nodded and said, "what General Hu said is true."


    The rest agreed.


    After everyone responded, Hu Wei said, "since you have no opinions, it''s settled. You go to persuade the people who are willing to leave, remember, don''t force, can''t find unreliable people. In case of leakage, none of us will survive. You all know Han Sui''s character. He kills people without blinking an eye. "


    "Understand, understand!"


    All of us should go down together.


    One by one, no longer staying, turned and left.


    This kind of similar situation occurred constantly in the Han Sui army, but nothing broke out for the time being.


    At the same time, in Ma Chao''s barracks.


    Xiong Heng''s tent.


    Xiong Heng is a Qiang nationality. He is loyal to Ma Teng no matter what Ma Teng is. Previously, Zhang Xiu''s army was in the city. Ma Teng asked Ma Chao to leave Chencang, and even let Ma Chao confront Han Sui. Ma Chao refused, regardless of Ma Teng''s life.


    When the news reached Xiong Heng''s ears, Xiong Heng immediately became very angry and thought that Ma Chao had betrayed Ma Teng.


    Xiong Heng summoned several generals under his command. After a discussion, he decided to take Ma Chao, and then led his troops out of the city to meet Ma Teng.


    Xiong Heng''s strategy is very simple. He sends someone to invite Ma Chao to camp and take Ma Chao under the pretext of discussion.


    With Xiong Heng''s brain, he can only come up with such a scheme.


    In the tent, Xiong Hengduan sits on the throne, and there are generals at the bottom. Everyone is waiting.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came from outside.


    At the next moment, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, Ma Chao put on his armor, hung his sword and strode in. He went into the tent, looked around, and finally fell on Xiong Heng. He asked, "Xiong Heng, what''s the matter?"


    Xiong Heng got up and said, "Ma Chao, you are a son in vain, regardless of your master''s life.""Come on, take Ma Chao."


    The bear gave the order.


    All the generals under his command draw their swords quickly. At the same time, at the gate of the camp, another group of soldiers rushed in and surrounded Ma Chao.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Ma Chao heard the speech, he burst into laughter.


    With a clang sound, he took the sword out of its sheath and held it in his hand, saying, "Xiong Heng, you still have the courage to fight. Even if you have dozens of soldiers, what''s the matter? In front of this general, it''s all local people. "


    "Kill


    The bear gave the order.


    Soldiers, do it now.


    The surrounding generals rushed up with their swords, intending to kill Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao didn''t panic in the face of the siege. He rushed left and right with his sword. The sword light passes, then there are bursts of screams, one by one soldiers constantly fall to the ground.


    Long sword flying, with a pengpeng of blood.


    Ma Chao was extremely brave. In a short time, he killed more than ten people and rushed to Xiong Heng in one step.


    "Death


    The horse is very low, and the sword is very sharp.


    Xiong Heng reached out his hand from the weapon rack, took out a sword and waved it to block it. He just needs to stop Ma Chao, and the soldiers around him will come up, which is enough to kill Ma Chao.


    But when Xiong Heng''s sword was blocked, Ma Chao suddenly changed his move. He lifted the sword and cut it down.


    The light of the sword flickers, and the bear can''t avoid it.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cut Xiong Heng''s neck and cut the blood vessels.


    In a flash, fresh blood splashed out.


    "Kick! Kick


    Xiong Heng kept retreating. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to cover his neck to hold the blood splashed out like a spring. He roared: "kill Ma Chao, kill him."


    He yelled, Ma Chao approached again.


    Ma Chao stabbed Xiong Heng with a sword, but he didn''t give him a chance to escape. He just heard a puff, and the tip of the sword penetrated Xiong Heng''s heart.


    A sword through the chest!


    Ma Chao pulls out his sword and Xiong Heng falls to the ground.


    At this moment, Ma Chao looked around all the soldiers approaching him with sharp eyes. He is carrying the sword that still drips blood from, the place that the vision passes, the public is scared to retreat by Zhang Xiu.


    Bear is horizontal, they still have confidence.


    When Xiong Heng died, he became a frightened bird, and none of them had courage.


    Ma Chao looked around and said coldly, "is there anyone else who wants to kill Ben Jiang?"


    "Bang Dang!"


    All of a sudden, a general threw away his weapon and begged for mercy in a loud voice After that, all the people who besieged Ma Chao threw away their weapons and no longer resisted.


    In a short time, they all surrendered.


    Ma Chao''s eyes swept the crowd, full of killing intention.


    According to his usual disposition, anyone who disobeys his orders should be killed. But in today''s situation, there are not many soldiers. If he kills too much, it will easily lead to the separation of soldiers and make people panic.


    So Ma Chao didn''t kill any more.


    Ma Chao ordered people to hang Xiong Heng''s body out for public display. He called pound and took over Xiong Heng''s soldiers to reorganize. He scattered all the people to avoid trouble again.

 Chapter 307

    Xiong Heng''s murder was soon revealed.


    Ma Chao''s soldiers were silent for a moment, and no one dared to talk about Ma Teng and Ma Xiu. In private, many soldiers'' impression of Ma Chao has changed.


    In the eyes of the invincible, invincible and invincible, the army was once invincible.


    Today, Ma Chao is reckless, regardless of his brother and father''s life, without humanity.


    Even if some soldiers in the army know that Ma Teng doesn''t like Ma Chao, they can be excused for not saving Ma Teng. But after all, it involves Ma Teng''s life. Ma Chao still ignores it, which is very sad.


    Morale, change.


    Ma Chao didn''t appease or deal with all these things.


    This news also spread to Han Sui.


    When Han Sui heard this, he sneered and looked at Han Tu, who was sitting under him. He sneered and said, "Ma Chao is stupid. He has no means at all. He was ambushed by Xiong Heng. If I were you, it would not have happened. "


    Han Tu said with a light smile: "Ma Chao, just a man."


    "Comparing Ma Chao with his master, such as the bright moon to the sun, the difference is far away. Moreover, Ma Teng brought out the Ma family army, and many of them were loyal to Ma Teng. "


    "It''s very normal for Ma Chao to be dissatisfied with Ma Teng''s life and death. The main army under the Lord''s command is all trained by the Lord himself. "


    "So no one dares to say anything to the Lord," Han Tu said


    "You have a point!"


    Han Sui stroked his beard and was very proud.


    At this time, Han Sui leaned forward slightly and continued: "this time Ma Chao, regardless of Ma Teng''s life or death, completely broke up between father and son. When the news came back to Liangzhou, Ma Chao ignored Ma Teng''s life and death, so he sat down completely. "


    "Ma Chao''s reputation is ruined."


    "It will be easy to deal with Ma Chao in the future. It won''t take much effort."


    "Now, we will defeat Zhang Xiu."


    Han then said with emotion: "Alas, if Duan Wen succeeded in capturing Chang''an, how good it would be. As long as the simmer is successful, we can have a foothold in Chencang. When I get back to Liangzhou, I will be able to free my hand to deal with Ma Chao. Since then, I have been able to unify Liangzhou


    Han Tu complimented: "the great cause of my Lord is sure to succeed. It''s not far away!"


    Han Sui said, "I hope that''s what you said."


    As soon as the words changed, Han Sui said again, "you should carefully watch the soldiers in the army, and don''t let them talk about Zhang Xiu''s surrender."


    "I understand


    Han Tu nodded and left the camp.


    Time goes by.


    The time of the day passes quietly.


    During this period, there was no more trouble in Ma Chao''s barracks, and so was Han Sui''s army. Everything was quiet.


    In the middle of the night.


    The camp, which should have been quiet, suddenly seemed to be lively.


    Han Sui barracks.


    At the gate of the camp, Hu Wei led 600 soldiers, one by one in armor, with a solemn look. He took the soldiers to the gate of the camp, looked at the soldiers on guard and said, "I''m under the secret order of General Han. I''ll go out of the city overnight to ambush."


    "Let go!"


    The soldiers at the gate dare not stop them.


    After all, it was Han Sui''s order.


    No one dares to ask more.


    When Han Sui led the army to fight, he often arranged for the army to leave to carry out secret missions.


    Huwei led the soldiers out of the camp and went straight to the south gate. As soon as Hu Wei arrived at the South Gate of Chencang County, he still did the same thing and continued to say that he was ordered out of the city by Han Sui.


    The soldiers who guarded the city did not dare to stop them, so they let Hu Wei and his party go out of the city.


    After Hu Wei and his party left, there were still soldiers in Han Sui''s army who left one after another, each with a reason.


    There are many reasons to leave.


    But the soldiers at the gate of the camp did not dare to stop them. Just five or six groups of people went out in a row, so that the soldiers at the door felt that the situation was not right, so they quickly arranged for people to report the matter to Han Tu.


    It''s late at night. Hantu goes to bed early.


    When Han TU was called up, his head was a little dizzy, his eyes were bleary, and he didn''t wake up. When Han Tu heard the report from the soldiers that the soldiers left the camp one after another to carry out the secret order, he shivered.


    Something''s wrong!


    Han Tu rubbed up, regardless of his clothes, quickly out of the tent, ran to Han Sui''s tent.


    To Han Sui''s camp outside, Han Tu immediately let people notice.


    He also took advantage of this opportunity to tidy up quickly.


    After half a sound, the soldier informed Han Tu to enter. After Han Tu entered, he saw Han Sui, who was also sleepy and drowsy, and quickly reported: "Lord, it''s not good. Many soldiers in the army fled under the pretext of orders. "


    "What?"


    Han suideng''s face changed greatly when he opened his eyes.At this moment, all the drowsiness in his mind disappeared.


    All that''s left in my head is anger.


    Asshole!


    Which soldier dares to escape?


    Han Sui immediately thought that he wanted to take the escaped people back for accountability. He asked, "how many people have gone?"


    Han Tu''s eyes are black now, and he is not clear about the situation.


    He shook his head and replied, "I don''t know how many people have left for the time being. I have just received a report from the soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp, saying that there are several groups of soldiers who claim to carry out the task under your secret order. Two thousand, I''m afraid


    Han Sui''s expression changed again and again, very angry.


    What''s the matter?


    Even so, Han Sui never gave any orders from the beginning to the end. All the people who left the army left without authorization.


    "Somebody


    Han then gave a direct order.


    A soldier enters and bows.


    Han Sui ordered: "seal the camp immediately and forbid anyone to enter or leave."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Han then looked at Han Tu again and said angrily, "Han Tu, I asked you to look at the soldiers in the army. After such a big thing, you didn''t find any sign. You deserve to die."


    "Plop!"


    Han TU was so scared that he knelt down on the ground.


    In front of Han Sui, Han Tu did not dare to have any rebellious thoughts.


    Han Tu kowtowed his head to the ground and said cautiously: "I''m guilty of humble duty. Please punish me."


    Han then got up and went to Han Tu, bit his teeth, raised his leg and kicked out, and said, "you bastard, I have entrusted you with a heavy task, but you are neglecting your duty. Damn it, you damn it


    "Damn it, damn it!"


    After being kicked over, Han Tu kneels down again and asks for mercy.


    After Han Sui had a good vent, he was no longer angry. He said, "you muster all the soldiers in the army to the school yard, count them carefully, and find out how many people left."


    "Here it is


    Hantu goes to the mission immediately.


    "Dong! Dong


    The battle drums resound through the army.


    Although many of the soldiers in the army were asleep, when the battle drums sounded, all of them got up quickly and went to the school yard.


    This is the order to drum up troops.


    There is a special frequency. When soldiers hear this, they dare not delay.


    Two quarters of an hour later, all the soldiers gathered.


    Han Sui puts on his helmet and comes to the school yard to count the number of people. A total of 1400 people were missing after counting, all of them left tonight.


    Han Sui got the result and was even more angry.


    During the day, he laughed at Ma Chao.


    In the evening, I found myself betrayed by the soldiers.


    He was also abandoned by the soldiers.


    Han Sui''s troops are less than 10000 now. After all, Yan Xing lost 8000 people and gave Ma Chao 2000. Now he has escaped more than 1000 people, and his combat power has been greatly damaged.


    Han Sui''s face was cold and sullen, and there was a voice on the ground: "all the officers and men, please listen to me carefully. Since they are soldiers under the general, they have to obey orders. "


    "From now on, if any more soldiers are found fleeing, they will all sit together."


    "If a soldier flees, Yiwu will be punished; if Yiwu flees, everything will be punished, and so on..."


    "I will pay you to eat and drink, not to raise the white eyed wolf. When it''s time to fight, you have to fight for Ben. You can''t retreat. "


    Han Sui said: "if you only want to be greedy, there is no such good thing. Those who have fled will come back to Liangzhou to deal with them and make them regret. "


    The officers and men in the army were silent when they heard the words.


    They all know Han Sui''s means.


    It''s not good.


    After Han suixun made a phone call, Da Xiu flicked and disbanded the army, then ordered Han Tu Haosheng to supervise again, and then returned to the camp to have a rest.


    Han Tu originally wanted to persuade Han Sui to withdraw. But when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them again. He didn''t mention the retreat, and he didn''t want to say it.

 Chapter 308

    On June nights, the moon is like a disk.


    Especially tonight''s moon, particularly bright, cool and bright light down, so that the whole earth bright as day in general, completely unlike the night.


    Outside Chencang County, inside and outside Zhangxiu camp is quiet.


    Although the layout of the barracks seems simple, it is loose outside and tight inside, and the defense is very strict. Not far from the west of the camp, there is an army on the official road.


    "Rustle!"


    The sound of footsteps, constantly sounded.


    Hu Wei led more than 600 soldiers to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    He walked out of the city easily under the guise of orders.


    However, Hu Wei made a big circle. After all, he came out of the city from the south gate, and then he had to come from the south gate to the east gate, and then he entered the official road leading to Zhang Xiu camp.


    Hu Wei, Mabian and others lead the way.


    The look on Mabian''s face, although there is expectation, but there is also fear, he said: "General Hu, let''s go to Zhang Xiu. If he doesn''t accept us, what shall we do? "


    "No way!"


    Hu Wei shook his head with a smile and said confidently, "haven''t you ever heard of Qianjin buying horse bones? Since Zhang Xiu is willing to surrender, and we are going to join him, he is bound to accept it. "


    "Not only that, but also we will be entrusted with a heavy task."


    "The reason is very simple. Only by recruiting us can we build up his image as a courteous and virtuous corporal, let people know the benefits of obedience to Zhang Xiu, and continue to incite the soldiers to surrender."


    Hu Wei said: "you can rest assured."


    Mabian and others agreed with each other, and their faces were full of joy. All of them were determined to go to Zhangxiu barracks.


    Suddenly, Hu Wei looked aside with sharp eyes and yelled, "who is in the woods, come out for me."


    He heard the movement in the nearby woods.


    It looks like someone''s in there.


    After Hu Wei gave a loud drink, there was a rustling sound in the woods, but there were soldiers, all of them were the generals under Han Sui.


    The leader is also a general.


    His name is Liu Li, a general in the army. When it comes to official posts, they are lower than Hu Wei. This time, he also brought out more than 300 soldiers.


    Liu Li knew Hu Wei.


    Seeing Hu Wei, he immediately went forward and said, "General Hu, it''s me, it''s me!"


    Hu Wei squinted and said, "Liu Li, what are you doing?"


    Liu Li did not answer directly. He said with a smile, "I will do whatever General Hu does." At this point, he laughed again, a meaningful look.


    When Hu Weidun understood, he patted Liu Li on the shoulder and said, "if so, come with me."


    "That''s right!"


    Liu Li responded immediately.


    He can be with Hoover, and he can be powerful.


    After they joined forces, they continued on their way. Along the way, they met some soldiers. The number of them was more than 1200. They were not weak.


    Although there were still some soldiers who escaped from the city, they did not join in.


    Hu Wei led the team to Zhang Xiu''s camp. As soon as he appeared, the soldiers on guard at the gate of the camp immediately became vigilant and ordered, "stop


    Hu Weilian said: "please inform general Zhang. We are soldiers under Han Sui''s command. Because of General Zhang''s call, we left Han Sui and came to join General Zhang."


    "Wait!"


    The soldier on guard immediately gave the order and turned to inform quickly.


    Ma Bian took a look at the camp and saw that the camp was quiet, as if there were no soldiers. He lowered his voice and said, "General Hu, the camp is empty. In the event of an attack, I''m afraid we can''t stop it. "


    "Stupid!"


    Hu Wei glared at Ma Bian. Seeing that the people around him were also puzzled, he explained: "General Zhang is more powerful than Han Sui. Even Han Sui knows how to arrange camp defense and night patrol. Can''t General Zhang think of it?"


    "It''s loose outside and tight inside."


    "Look out, there''s nothing. Once you get in, you''ll be caught in the net. Do you really think it would be so easy to kill the Huns and defeat Cao Cao, even Han Sui has been beaten repeatedly? "


    Hu Wei shook his head with a look of disdain.


    "Yes, yes."


    After Ma Bian heard this, he said: "General Hu has vision and insight."


    Liu Li also flattered him and agreed with Hu Wei.


    It wasn''t long. The soldiers came out. Behind the soldiers was a young man in white robes, silver armour, and flapping armor.


    It''s Zhang Xiu.


    He came to meet him in person.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu appeared, there was a burst of discussion. No matter Hu Wei, or Liu Li, Mabian and others, they all have excited faces.


    Zhang Xiu welcomed her in person.This more face, but also reflects the importance of Zhang Xiu to them.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu arrived at the gate of the camp. His eyes swept over the soldiers, and a smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    When the soldiers in Han Sui''s army betrayed, it was very exciting.


    This time, Han Sui will be in a panic.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "you believe that Ben Jiang is willing to work. Ben Jiang is very happy. Please rest assured that as long as you abide by the law and discipline in our general''s army and do not violate military orders, we will guarantee that your treatment will not be lower than that of Han Sui''s army. "


    Hu Wei had some insight. Although he was excited, he tried his best to keep calm and said, "we came to the general because of his benevolence and righteousness, because the general showed us to others. Han Sui was cruel and ruthless, and everyone was punished. We are willing to serve the general. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    When he looked at Hoover, he cast a look of approval and asked, "who are you?"


    Hoover was excited to hear that.


    He got Zhang Xiu to ask, obviously entered Zhang Xiu''s field of vision.


    Hu Wei quickly replied, "report back to the general. The name of the last general is Hu Wei. In Han Sui''s army, he held the post of partial general. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you the leader?"


    "Yes


    Hu Wei answered without hesitation.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, no longer spoke with Hu Wei, and said something encouraging. At this time, Ganning came. When Zhang Xiu learned that someone had come to join him, she arranged for someone to inform Gan Ning and let Gan Ning receive the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Hu Wei will stay. I will have something to discuss with him. The rest of the people go with Ganning. Gan Ning will be responsible for your reorganization. Please rest assured that your official posts will not be weakened and your salaries will not be reduced. "


    "General Xie!"


    One by one, all the soldiers should go down.


    When the generals looked at Hu Wei, they all looked envious. Because to stay and talk with Zhang Xiu is equal to entering Zhang Xiu''s vision and getting her love.


    This is a golden opportunity.


    Unfortunately, only Hu Wei had the chance, and the rest of them had to follow Gan Ning.


    After Gan Ning leads a group of people to leave, Zhang Xiu takes Hu Wei back to the central army tent, and the guests and hosts take their seats. Zhang Xiu opens the door to the mountain and says, "Hu Wei, what''s the situation of Han Sui and Ma Chao''s army in Chencang county now?"


    Hu Wei said: "report back to general, Han Sui''s army is in a panic. Many soldiers want to flee and surrender to you. However, many people are too weak to leave the army. "


    "The soldiers in the army have no desire to fight."


    "Morale, a complete drop."


    Thinking of Ma Chao''s situation, Hu Wei said, "especially in Ma Chao''s army, there was a man named Xiong Heng who rebelled. Xiong Heng, a subordinate of Ma Teng, is loyal to Ma Teng. He is dissatisfied with Ma Chao''s failure to save him. He takes the opportunity to ask Ma Chao to attend the meeting to ambush him. Unfortunately, Xiong Heng was killed on the spot, and the rest were scattered in the army. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she was applauded in her heart.


    It''s a plan.


    In today''s situation, either Han Sui or Ma Chao are unpopular. Under such circumstances, even if Han Sui and Ma Chao did not withdraw for the time being, it would be sooner or later.


    What Zhang Xiu is thinking about now is not only to recapture Chencang County, but also to completely defeat Han Sui and Ma Chao, and even strive to destroy Han Sui.

 Chapter 309

    The next day, early in the morning.


    At dawn, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers got up early for morning exercises. When morning exercise is over, all of them have breakfast, and then they go to Chencang county with Zhang Xiu.


    This time, Zhang Xiu took all the weapons to attack the city and was ready to attack.


    After a day''s fermentation, both Han Sui''s soldiers and Ma Chao''s soldiers fled and resisted, and the two armies lost their hearts.


    Without the will to fight to the end, Han Sui''s and Ma Chao''s troops should not be worried. The army was on its way and soon came out of the city.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war reverberate inside and outside the city.


    The army array, the murderous air all over the sky, rushed to the city floor, making the garrison troops on the city floor feel like black clouds pressing down on the city. It seems that Chencang county is a duckweed in the water, which will be blown away by the strong wind at any time.


    After a long drumbeat, the war drum stopped.


    By this time, Han Sui and Ma Chao had already arrived at the head of the city to take command. Both Han Sui and Ma Chao are lucky. One wants to defeat Zhang Xiu, the other wants to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    But it''s not realistic.


    It''s hard to achieve.


    Zhang Xiu urged her horse forward and said in a loud voice: "Han Sui, Ma Chao, you are stubborn. Today, it is bound to break the city. "


    Han Sui said, "if you have the ability, you will attack the city."


    Ma Chao echoed: "Zhang Xiu child, have the ability to fight in the city."


    Zhang Xiu heard two people''s words, the corners of his mouth smile, are dead duck mouth hard. By this time, Zhang Xiu has occupied an absolute advantage. He didn''t speak any more. With a wave of his hand, Gan Ning gave the order to attack.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    A catapult, slowly forward.


    In any siege, the catapult is a necessary weapon. Especially after the transformation of the craftsmen in Zhang Xiu''s workshop, the range and attack strength of the catapult were improved.


    The catapults were lined up.


    A total of 20 catapults were put in place. One by one, the catapults loaded the stones quickly and aimed at the tower of Chencang County, ready to attack.


    "Let''s go!"


    The marquis in charge of the catapult gave the order.


    "Bang Dang! Bang


    When the levers of the catapults started to run, twenty huge stones weighing more than one hundred jin swept through the air, crossed an arc, and flew to the city tower.


    At the same time, another Archer came forward.


    "Shoot the arrow!"


    With the order, all the archers released the bowstring. Dense as raindrops of arrows, flying in the air, to the city tower constantly falling.


    The falling stones, as well as the dense bow and arrow, make the soldiers on the head of the city resist in a hurry. The walls of Chencang county are not strong. When big stones fall, the walls vibrate slightly.


    Han Sui didn''t panic and calmly mobilized his soldiers to resist.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu''s army had begun to launch an attack. A lot of soldiers rushed out, some carrying the ladder, some carrying a car crash into the gate, and some soldiers came forward with the help of siege vehicles.


    The dark scene made my heart tremble.


    Zhang Xiu''s army launched a thorough attack, and the attack was like a tide.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    One by one, the soldiers have high morale.


    When Zhang Xiu rode back to the army, he saw the soldiers rushing forward and said, "Gan Ning, send an order down. Those who have won Han Sui and Ma Chao will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with 100 taels of gold. "


    Ganning immediately gave the order.


    "Those who have won Han Sui and Ma Chao will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with 100 taels of gold!"


    "Those who have won Han Sui and Ma Chao will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with 100 taels of gold!"


    ¡­¡­


    In the rear of Ganning, there were orderly shouts of soldiers in the army. The cry of thousands of soldiers, straight into the sky, clearly into the ears of every soldier who is attacking.


    The number of people who attacked, as many as 8000 soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to delay. She arranged 8000 soldiers to attack in a hurry. She planned to win Chencang county and defeat Han Sui and Ma Chao in a hurry.


    After all, Han Sui was unstable.


    At this time, it''s easy to procrastinate. Instead, it is better to finish the battle and send enough troops to crush Han Sui and Ma Chao.


    The soldiers who attacked the city were like a rainbow.


    They all know that the morale of Han Sui''s and Ma Chao''s troops is low, and they know that Han Sui''s troops surrender, so they don''t think this battle is very difficult. When the soldiers rushed to the bottom of the tower, the bow and arrow from the rear stopped attacking.


    After all, bows and arrows are indiscriminate attacks.


    The purpose of the bow and arrow shooting is to make Han Sui''s soldiers tired of defending and unable to stop the attacking soldiers, so that Zhang Xiu''s infantry can quickly rush to the city floor.


    It''s repressive.


    The catapult is still in continuous delivery, because it can aim, accurately destroy the defenses of Han Sui and Ma Chao, and disperse the troops gathered on the city floor."Patta! Click


    A ladder, set up in the city upstairs.


    The soldiers began to climb up.


    "Boom!"


    Siege of the crash, but also hard hit in the gate. Under the continuous impact, the city gate began to shake and tremble. Even if Chencang county is an important town, Guanzhong will wither. Even if Zhang Xiu came to Guanzhong and restored it, in a short time, the city wall of Chencang county was still in decline, and the gate was not very secure.


    Under the impact of a car crash, he was on the verge of collapse.


    A full-scale attack has taken place.


    After a short time, the soldiers had already killed the castle and began to cut and kill.


    Han Sui saw Zhang Xiu''s soldiers coming up and mobilized them to resist. But Han Sui''s heart sank. Because Zhang Xiu''s army attacked too fast and fiercely, in a short time, they climbed up the castle.


    At this time, Ma Chao took the soldiers to fight back and forth, and beat down the soldiers who rushed to the city building.


    However, there is only one Ma Chao.


    Although the soldiers under his command were obedient, the cavalry did not come up. They were all infantry, and the infantry were not as elite as the cavalry. In particular, many soldiers did not want to fight.


    So the defense is not very strong.


    As a matter of fact, the soldiers under Han Sui''s command, too, have weakened their fighting capacity and lost their fierce and fearless fighting spirit. Under such circumstances, when the two armies fight each other on the battlefield, the troops lacking in fighting spirit will soon be crushed and torn to pieces, completely unable to withstand the attack.


    Han Sui''s army, not long after, began to be defeated.


    It was a mountain of defeat.


    Seeing that the situation was not right, Han Tu came to Han Sui in a hurry and said in a loud voice: "general, the situation is not good. The soldiers in our army don''t want to fight. At present, we can''t defend Chencang county. Retreat! "


    Brush!


    Han Sui''s face changed slightly.


    Han Sui''s heart is to stay in Chencang county to delay. In case Duan Wen wins in Chang''an, he has a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    But now, it''s completely unstoppable.


    Less than half an hour after the war, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers went up to the city building and attacked the city. At this rate, Chencang county will sink in an hour at most.


    Han Sui''s eyes were dribbling. He quickly came to Ma Chao''s side and said, "my dear nephew, this battle is at the most dangerous time. You are responsible for the defense of the city tower. I''ll take the soldiers down to the city tower. I''m going out of the city to fight with Zhang Xiu. If we don''t fight back, there will be no chance at all. "


    "OK, no problem!"


    Ma Chao didn''t think much about it, so he just got off. He felt that Han Sui had great courage to fight at this time.


    Han Sui steadied Ma Chao and cast a look at Chao Han Tu, then he saw that Han Tu quickly summoned the soldiers belonging to Han Sui on the tower and quickly went down the tower.


    Han then entered the city, but did not go out to fight. He went straight to the city, leaving Ma Chao alone to lead his army to resist.


    Ma Chao was stunned.


    What''s going on?


    How did Han Sui run away?


    Ma Chao was stunned for a moment, then he came back to know that Han ran away. He was so angry that he swore and was very angry. Unexpectedly, in the end, he was trapped by Han Sui.

 Chapter 310

    "Asshole, asshole hansui!"


    "The old bastard!"


    Ma Chao cursed, handsome cheek, look very angry. He looked around and found that his soldiers, too, were retreating quickly and could not resist.


    Obviously, all the soldiers in the army gave up fighting and were not willing to resist any more.


    moreover, most of Ma Chao''s infantry troops were transferred from Han''s army. Now Han Sui ran away, and these soldiers who belonged to Han Sui were not willing to resist any more.


    "Pound!"


    Ma Chao yelled.


    "Yes


    Pound answered and quickly came to Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao said, "if we can''t stop it, we will retreat. Go to the barracks immediately, gather our cavalry and wait at the barracks gate. I will withdraw to the direction of the barracks. We will break through the siege directly from Ximen and return to Liangzhou. "


    "Here it is


    Pound had to be ordered to carry out the order.


    But pound''s heart is a sigh.


    Yesterday''s Ma Chao, or Ma Chao before last night, clamored to compete with Zhang Xiu. Now in the battle on the city tower, Zhang Xiu''s army beat him like Sun Tzu. He was defeated and finally thought of withdrawing.


    If it had been yesterday, Ma Chao would have listened to his suggestion to withdraw, and would not have been so alarmed or suffered so much loss. Of course, pound can only think about it.


    This is the end of the matter. It''s no use saying more.


    After pound left, Ma Chao did not retreat immediately. He had to organize soldiers to resist in order to delay time. When Ma Chao saw that someone was going to retreat, he immediately killed several retreating generals and ordered the soldiers to resist.


    With his iron hand, Ma Chao temporarily stabilized the army and reluctantly delayed to resist.


    Just after fighting for a while, Ma Chao''s face turned pale. Even if he ordered to resist, more and more people fled.


    While resisting, Ma Chao cursed Han Sui cunning in his heart.


    "Kill me!"


    Ma Chao yelled, the golden spear of tiger head Zhan stabbed out constantly, killing the enemies who rushed to the city building one by one. But now the situation is that more and more people rush up to the point where Ma Chao can''t stop them.


    Even if Ma Chao killed, it would not help.


    The defeat is settled!


    What''s more, Han then patted his ass to withdraw, which affected the morale of the army and led to the weakening of resistance.


    The whole tower is full of people under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    In a moment, the defense line was destroyed.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ma Chao finally gave the order.


    He took a few soldiers to break through quickly, took the galloping road of the tower, went down the tower, and went to the direction of the barracks.


    Ma Chao''s retreat is the last.


    There is no more resistance on the tower.


    "Boom!"


    The gate under the tower, unable to withstand the impact, fell to the ground and was completely knocked over.


    At the moment, countless soldiers of Zhang Xiu swarmed into the upper and lower levels of the city.


    Chencang county was broken immediately.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers entered on a large scale, but they could only cover up some of the soldiers who fell behind, because Ma Chao joined pound outside the camp.


    Ma Chao turned over to mount the horse and looked at the direction of Zhang Xiu''s army. His eyes were unwilling, but he gritted his teeth and said, "withdraw!"


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid.


    Ma Chao retreated with more than 2000 elite cavalry, gave up the rest of the infantry and went straight to the west gate.


    The cavalry is very fast.


    When Ma Chao came out of Ximen, he galloped all the way to Liangzhou. Ma Chao''s troops were all cavalry, and the speed of retreat was fast. Although Han Sui ran first, there were a large number of infantry in Han Sui after all, which delayed his journey, so that he was overtaken by Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao is extremely resentful of Han Sui.


    However, when he met Han Sui''s army, he didn''t pay attention to Han Sui. He retreated and soon left Han Sui behind.


    Han Sui said nothing.


    He didn''t pay attention to Ma Chao.


    After Han Sui and Ma Chao withdrew, Zhang Xiu had entered Chencang county.


    The army entered the city and quickly took over the city defense.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the city, quietly waiting for the news.


    About half an hour later, on the official road leading to Liangzhou, Chen Dao, who ambushed Ma Chao and Han Sui, came back.


    Chen Dao looks a little lost.


    He took soldiers to lay ambush, most of them infantry, and the number of them was limited. After all, although the cavalry of Langya camp was reorganized, they had no combat effectiveness and could not go to the battlefield at will.


    When Chen Dao saw Zhang Xiu, he hugged his fist and said, "Lord, the last general is preparing to ambush on the half way, but Ma Chao''s cavalry has more than 2000 people. Although the last general is elite, Ma Chao''s cavalry are all scattered and retreating on the vast land, and the ambush is useless, so I let Ma Chao''s army leave."


    After a pause, Chen Dao said again: "Han Sui''s army has a large number of troops, but our troops are small. We can''t attack, so we let Han Sui withdraw. The last general is incompetent. Please surrenderZhang xiudao: "just, it''s not your fault."


    In fact, the main forces under Zhang Xiu''s command were used to attack Chencang county.


    Chen Dao was given a small number of troops, more than 2000 people, almost all infantry.


    The combat effectiveness is insufficient.


    Zhang Xiu''s original intention was that when he attacked Chencang County, he fought with Han Sui and Ma Chao. After the fighting, the two sides approached and weakened the forces of Han Sui and Ma Chao, and even let the soldiers bite Ma Chao and Han Sui to defeat their armies.


    In this way, when Ma Chao and Han Sui withdrew, they did not have many troops. When Chen arrived at the half way ambush, even if they did not have many troops, there was no problem.


    The problem is that Han withdrew too quickly.


    Han then cleanly withdrew, leaving Ma Chao to delay for a while. When it was time to defeat the army under Ma Chao''s command, Ma Chao drove his horse to retreat and threw away the attacking army.


    As a result, they failed to weaken the forces of Ma Chao and Han Sui.


    No matter Han Sui or Ma Chao, although they have damaged their troops, there are not many.


    Under such circumstances, although Chen Dao laid an ambush, there were too many people coming. Chen Dao did not dare to fight, so he let Han Sui and Ma Chao retreat.


    But under the rule, Chen came back with the ambush and reported the news to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t blame Chen Dao and said, "Uncle Zhi, go to the whole army. We should rectify the Langya camp as soon as possible and restore its combat effectiveness. "


    "I understand


    Chen answered with a clasp.


    After Chen Dao left, Zhang Xiu asked Gan Ning to rectify the soldiers in the army and clean up the situation in Chencang county.


    After arranging Gan Ning''s affairs, Zhang Xiu called Jia Xu, Li Ru and Pang Tong and said, "just after receiving the news, Chen Zhi failed to ambush Han Sui in the middle of the road, because there are too many troops under Han Sui''s command to ambush him."


    Jia Xu said: "even if there is no ambush to Han Sui, it will not have much influence. It''s not a bad thing to let Ma Chao and Han Sui go back to Xiliang. "


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Jia Xu replied: "back in Xiliang, although Ma Chao has Ma''s army, Ma Chao''s strength is weak and may not be able to convince Ma''s army. In addition, Han Sui''s strength is strong. Seeing that the strength of Ma''s army is weakened, he has a chance to wipe out Ma''s family and is likely to fight against Ma Chao. In Liangzhou, there is no need for the Lord to worry. As for Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, they can be detained temporarily. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed approval on her face and said, "what Wenhe said is true."


    Pang Tong said: "in Chang''an, Huang Zhong is in charge. Duan''s army is not a threat. Under such circumstances, don''t we go to Liangzhou and win it in one go? "


    "No!"


    Li Ru shook his head and explained, "it''s not cost-effective to attack Liangzhou now."


    Pang Tong said, "why?"


    Li Ru said: "because the Lord does not attack Liangzhou, Han Sui and Ma Chao are likely to have internal strife and disputes, and then attack each other. The Lord has a chance to reap the benefits."


    "On the other hand, if the Lord attacked Liangzhou, Ma Teng and Han Sui might join hands to attack him. Even those under Ma Teng who do not support Ma Chao will support Ma Chao to protect themselves. "


    "Our attack can only make them more united."


    "So it is extremely unwise to send troops to attack now. In addition, Hongnong, Henan and Hanoi are the key links, which must be won as soon as possible. "


    Li Ru said: "the eastern area of Guanzhong should not fall into the control of Cao Cao, otherwise there will be no stable days in the East."


    Jia Xu said, "what Wen you said is true."


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, Han Sui''s hatred of invading Guanzhong is recorded for the time being. When he takes Duan Rong and seizes Hongnong County, he solves the problem of Luoyang, and then he takes revenge on Han Sui."


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Li Ru and Pang Tong echoed.

 Chapter 311

    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and said, "Shiyuan, I''ll give you a day to deal with the affairs of Chencang County properly. Next, we have to go back to Chang''an. "


    "I''ll do it


    Pang Tong directly responded.


    "Step on it! Step on


    The sound of footsteps spread out of the account.


    Immediately, the curtain of the tent door was lifted, and Wang Yue strode in.


    Wang Yue, in charge of the royal guards, is the most important person under Zhang Xiu. Holding a letter in his hand, he came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, this is a summary of things in Chencang County in recent years."


    Zhang Xiu took it over and quickly browsed it.


    After Zhang Xiu finished reading it, she sighed: "it''s a pity that Jiang Wan, the magistrate of Chencang County, died. When he was the magistrate of Chencang County, he protected the territory and the people. He was a cadre. After Han Sui and Ma Teng broke Chencang County, Jiang Wan would rather die than surrender, and died by Han Sui''s sword. "


    Jia Xu said: "since Jiang Wan is an official, he can win the hearts of the people. Before leaving, the Lord should reward Jiang Wan, not to disappoint the people, but to unite the people of Chencang county. "


    "So be it!"


    Zhang Xiu also nodded.


    Now that he knows about Jiang Wan, he can''t take it as if he didn''t know. The reward is deserved.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, soldiers reported outside the camp.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    When the order was given, the soldiers entered and saluted Zhang Xiu, reporting: "general, there is a man named Jiang Ning outside. He said he was the son of the late county magistrate Jiang Wan. He asked the general to report something important. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu also laughed.


    Just talking about Jiang Wan, I didn''t expect Jiang Wan''s son to come. Time is not long, Jiang Ning into the camp. He was in his early thirties, tall, wearing a silk scarf, a black robe and a solemn face.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, he is still neither humble nor arrogant.


    Jiang Ning arched his hand and said, "meet general Zhang, Jiang Ning."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Jiang Ning, you have come to see our general, but what''s the matter?"


    Jiang Ning replied: "the purpose of Cao min''s request to see the general is to help him rectify his father''s name. When Chencang County fell, my father led his soldiers to resist Han Sui and died


    "My father will fight to the death."


    "No servility."


    "But the Ma family in Chencang County, after Han Sui and Ma Teng invaded the city, was the first to fall to Han Sui and Ma Teng, supporting Han Sui and Ma Teng''s food, grass and equipment. They put on a servile appearance and made up with Ma Teng, saying that they were distant relatives."


    "Now the general goes into the city and drives away Ma Teng and Han Sui. The Ma family immediately gets rid of their relationship with Ma Teng, changes their caliber, and even falsely accuses my father, saying that my father has not led the army to resist from beginning to end. What''s more, Han Sui and Ma Teng scared my father to death."


    There was anger on Jiang Ning''s face.


    When it comes to the Ma family, he has so much resentment that he wants to destroy the Ma family.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded slightly and did not express her opinion.


    Jiang Ning continued: "my father has been the magistrate of Chencang County for more than ten years, and has experienced numerous hardships. In particular, in the past few years, when war broke out and my father took charge of Chencang County, life was even more difficult. "


    "The people of the Jiang family are not afraid of suffering."


    "Only fear rumors."


    "Our Jiang family is loyal and filial. My father would rather die than surrender in order to resist the thieves. My father is upright and upright. His back is as straight as a pine. He never bends his knees. He is not a slave. "


    Jiang Ning folded his hands and bowed to Zhang Xiu respectfully. He said, "please, Mr. Zhang, correct my father''s name."


    Zhang Xiu understood after listening.


    Jiang ninglai, there are two reasons.


    First, it is to rectify Jiang Wan''s name, which can not shame Jiang Wan''s unjust death, let alone the Jiang family.


    Second, deal with the Ma family.


    Zhang Xiu has a certain understanding of the Ma family. Because the war report submitted by Wang Yue clearly recorded that the Ma family surrendered to Ma Teng and Han Sui, and they were willing to be driven by Ma Teng and acted as thugs.


    Zhang Xiu was going to deal with the Ma family.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to stay in this kind of wallflower. Now Jiang Ning is here, and Zhang Xiu doesn''t delay. She immediately orders, "summon Gan Ning to see you."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers outside the camp, go and inform immediately.


    Time is not long, Gan Ning rushed into the tent, boxing salute.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go and gather 300 elite soldiers and wait at the gate of the camp. Next, you and Jiang Ning go to seal up the Majia in Chencang county. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu introduced Jiang Ning.


    Gan Ning didn''t say much. He immediately responded and quickly mobilized his troops.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Jiang Ning and said, "Jiang Ning, your father is incomparable. It''s really admirable. Your request for redress of your father''s injustice will have been accepted. We will issue a special notice to reward your father for his vowing to fight against Ma Teng and Han Sui, in recognition of the dead officials stationed in Chencang county. "Jiang Ning said, "thank you, general."


    At this moment, Jiang Ning was relieved.


    At least it''s settled.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in view of the lack of county magistrate in Chencang County, Jiang Ning has been following Jiang Wan for a long time. I intend to order you to be the magistrate of Chencang county. Would you like to


    The loyalty and filial piety of the Jiang family is an example that Zhang Xiu needs to set up.


    We can''t let the loyal and filial people suffer.


    The appointment of Jiang Ning as the magistrate of Chencang County, on the one hand, is to reward Jiang Wan''s selfless efforts over the years; on the other hand, Jiang Ning''s presence can continue to ensure the stability of Chencang county.


    Jiang Ning was a little surprised.


    He came to Zhang Xiu''s barracks to complain. He complained about his father''s sufferings and did not intend to seek any position. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu appointed him as the magistrate of the county government instead.


    Today''s Jiang Ning is an intermediary.


    He had repeatedly wanted to become an official in Chencang County, but he was stopped by Jiang Wan and had to study at home.


    Now I''m promoted. I''m promoted too fast.


    However, Jiang Ning is willing. His succession to the county magistrate shows that his father died in war, not in terror.


    Otherwise, he will not be appointed as the magistrate of Chencang county.


    Jiang Ning bowed his hand and said, "the grass people are willing to thank general long en."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "you don''t have to thank me. You deserve it and the Jiang family deserves it. Since you are going to be the magistrate of Chencang County, I hope that you will be like your father, love the people like your son, and stand firm in the face of major events. "


    Jiang Ning said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    Zhang xiudao said: "you go to the gate of the camp and wait. When Gan Ning arrives, you will lead Gan Ning to the Ma family, seal up the Ma family and thoroughly investigate the Ma family''s criminal evidence."


    "Here it is


    Jiang Ning''s fist should be thrown.


    At this moment, Jiang Ning''s heart was also agitated.


    He not only changed himself, but also became the magistrate of Chencang county. Moreover, Ma family, who slandered his father, will soon be punished. He is very happy.


    Jiang Ning bows to Zhang Xiu again and goes out of the camp to prepare to deal with the affairs of the Ma family.


    Jia Xu praised: "a Jiang Wan died in Chencang county. The Lord supported Jiang Ning, Jiang Wan''s son. He paid a lot of money to buy horse bones and treated the hero''s descendants well. This is a wonderful move. Since then, all the people in Chencang county will be grateful for the Lord''s kindness. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s just easy to do it. It''s not worth mentioning."


    Zhang Xiu dealt with all kinds of things again, and then let Jia Xu, Li Ru and others leave. He also didn''t steal his time and went to the army to rectify the soldiers and prepare to withdraw.

 Chapter 312

    Chang''an City, Shanglinyuan area.


    Today''s Shanglin garden has long been abandoned. There are many forests, beasts and weeds in Neizhong mountain. Few people live here.


    In the Western Han Dynasty, this is a royal garden, which had been abandoned by the Eastern Han Dynasty.


    Today, it is even more desolate.


    However, in this forest, close to the direction of Chang''an, there is an army stationed here.


    There are six thousand people in this army.


    The leader is Huang Zhong.


    After he left Chang''an with Zhang Xiu, not far away, he transferred his army to withdraw and hid in the mountain forest of Shanglin garden. At that time, Huang Zhong was surrounded by 8000 elite soldiers, but now there are only 6000.


    These six thousand men are 1000 elite cavalry of Langya camp and 5000 infantry of flying bear army.


    All the rest of Huang Zhong''s soldiers were transferred back to Chang''an and dispatched by Xu Shu. In addition, there are more than 10000 regular troops in Chang''an City, plus 3000 flying bear troops, which are enough to guard.


    There are Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan in Chang''an city. Huang Zhong is not worried.


    Huang Zhong''s mission is to attack Duan Xun.


    The task of garrison was given to Xu Shu.


    Huang Zhong has been staying in Shanglin garden, waiting for the news from Duan wensha.


    During this period, Huang Xu, Huang Zhong''s son, and Huang Wan, his daughter, have arrived in Chang''an. Now Huang Xu''s condition is greatly alleviated and is recovering. Huang Wan is responsible for taking care of Huang Xu.


    The two brothers and sisters live in Huang Zhong''s mansion.


    Many people in Zhang Zhongjing''s hospital have already arrived in Chang''an first.


    Everything is going on in an orderly way.


    A few days ago, Huang Zhong got the news that Duan Xun had sent troops from Huayin county. It''s just that Duan Wen''s speed of sending troops is slow. He has been coming to Chang''an slowly, and he has been hiding his whereabouts all the time.


    If Jia Xu and others had not predicted in advance, Huang Zhong would not have arranged for sentinel agents to go to Huayin county to inquire about the news. Because I had been prepared, I knew Duan Wen had sent troops quietly.


    "Rustle!"


    A sound of walking came from the forest.


    The sentinel quickly came to Huang Zhong and reported: "general, Duan''s army is here, less than ten miles away from Chang''an city. Before noon, you can reach the east gate of Chang''an city. "


    "Well, here we are at last."


    Huang Zhong''s face was full of joy.


    Sentinel continued: "now Duan Wen no longer hide his whereabouts, is swaggering to lead the troops on the way, straight to Chang''an city."


    Huang Zhong nodded and continued: "Duan simmer has to go on the road in a swagger to give Chang''an a surprise. He deliberately exposed the news in order to let us know, and then let us panic, so that we can fish in troubled waters. "


    Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "if you want to explore again, you must explore the news closely."


    "Yes


    The sentry is ordered to step down immediately.


    Huang Zhong didn''t send someone to inform Xu Shu, because Xu Shu had been followed up by sentinels who were responsible for informing Xu Shu of the news.


    When Huang Zhong stood still and hid in the dark like a cheetah, Duan Xu''s army was getting closer to Chang''an. Duan Weng''s surprise attack on Chang''an brought 30000 elite soldiers, and he poured out.


    In order to win Chang''an, he is also out of the question, must win a war. The army attacked and soon arrived at the east gate of Chang''an.


    Thirty thousand elite soldiers, such as black clouds, press the city.


    Duan Xun, confident, galloped forward and stood in the front of the army. He said in a loud voice: "listen to the people on the tower, open the gate immediately and surrender. Otherwise, I would have gone into the city and left nothing. "


    After a pause, Duan simmered again: "now that Zhang Xiu is leading the army out, we are all old and weak. There is no need to fight for Zhang Xiu to the end. You can choose to surrender. As long as you surrender, you will not change your official position. "


    Today, Xu Shu also wears armor.


    Although Xu Shu was a civil servant, he used to be a knight errant with excellent martial arts.


    He is a man of both arts and martial arts.


    Xu Shu''s face was solemn. He pressed the wall with his hands and threw it on the ground. He said in a voice: "Duan Wen, my Lord and you have never been enemies. In the past, you sent soldiers to deliver Wu Xi''s body to show your sincerity. Now, you have attacked Chang''an secretly. Are you not afraid of the withdrawal of the Lord''s army and going to your old nest to kill you? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Duan Xun stroked his steel needle like beard under his jaw and said, "I''m not afraid of Zhang Xiu."


    At this point, Duan Xun''s whip shook, pointed to Xu Shu''s direction and said, "I will give you two choices. The first is to surrender to survive, and the second is to fight to death. What''s your choice, life or death? "


    When Xu Shu heard Duan''s words, he sneered.


    Duan Xu and other speculators, that is, when Zhang Xiu leaves, dare to jump out of the dark stinky ditch. In Chang''an, Zhang Xiu would not dare to fart.


    Xu Shu was not afraid of Duan Xun. He even wanted Duan Xun to have the illusion that it would be easy to break the city if there were not many troops guarding the city.


    In this way, Xu Shu could ambush Duan Xu.


    Xu Shu snorted and continued: "Duan Wen, even if the Lord took away most of the soldiers, there are not many soldiers guarding the city under my command. But the city wall of Chang''an is strong. It''s not easy for you to attack. If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. "In his words, he pointed out the weakness of Chang''an''s troops.


    When Duan Wen heard Xu Shu''s information, he was more determined and said again, "since you are looking for death, you will be successful. Today, I will send you to hell. "


    "Herald, attack!"


    Duan Wen immediately gave the order.


    "Dong! Dong


    The battle drum sounds behind Duan simmer.


    The drums are rumbling with a different rhythm, constantly reverberating inside and outside the city. With the sound of war drums resounding all over the world, ten thousand elite soldiers under Duan Wen''s command rushed out quickly and went straight to Chang''an city.


    Chang''an city is close to the Weihe River, and there is a moat around it. On the tower, there are suspension bridges connecting the inside and outside. If we do not put down the suspension bridge, it is impossible for a large number of soldiers to enter.


    We need to attack the city. It''s not easy.


    Duan Wen knows the difficulty of attacking Chang''an, and it''s not easy to win it.


    However, once Chang''an is won, it can control the countless grain seized by Zhang Xiu, and also severely damage Zhang Xiu who has just established himself in Chang''an. This is good for Duan simmer.


    So the section simmers the heart.


    In particular, Duan''s defeat of Zhang Xiu is tantamount to the control of Jingzhao area and youfufeng. In such a situation, he raised his troops to surrender to the imperial court, which was indispensable for him to be a marquis.


    At that time, he will be able to stay in history. This is the plan of the period.


    When ten thousand elite soldiers rushed to the city floor, Duan Xun beat the drum and beat the drum to cheer for the soldiers in the army.


    There is no other way for soldiers to attack the city. A cloud ladder was built on the city wall, a siege vehicle and a cloud vehicle were laid outside the city.


    Duan''s soldiers soon began to climb the city tower, intending to kill them.


    The offensive is as turbulent as the tide.


    Xu Shu saw all this in his eyes, and there was no panic on his face. He ordered, "Archer, let go!"


    Duan Xun attacked the city, but he didn''t use the catapult, bow and arrow to suppress the troops on the top of the city, which gave Xu Shu the opportunity to mobilize the archers to suppress the other side.


    One by one, the archers came forward and drew bows and arrows while Duan''s soldiers were not on the tower. As long as the soldiers have enough strength in archery, there is no need to consider the accuracy.


    In a flash, the bow and arrow poured down like a downpour.


    The arrow rain fell all over the sky, and the soldiers who rushed in front were shot head-on by bows and arrows. Bursts of screams sounded, there are countless people constantly fall down from the ladder.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    However, the attacking soldiers did not stop at all and were still charging up.


    They all have a belief that there are not many troops in Chang''an city. As long as you go up to the city building, you can easily take down Chang''an city. It is precisely with such a recognition that the soldiers know that there is a rain of arrows ahead, and they are still rushing forward regardless of themselves.


    If they take the spicy food, they can get the Jiacheng prize.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Duan''s soldiers, as if tireless, continued to charge bravely.


    Xu Shu saw that the bow and arrow could not stop him, and even more and more of Duan Wen''s Xiliang soldiers climbed up. He was still not alarmed. He once again ordered: "long spearmen, come forward to meet the enemy!"

 Chapter 313

    One by one, the soldiers with long guns were ordered to hold long guns and quickly stab out long guns. The position of the spearmen was all close to the outside of the city wall. In his hand, he had a long spear with a thick goose egg. The sharp point of the spear showed a terrible light.


    Two feet away from the tip of the gun, there is a small bag bound with gauze, the size of a basketball.


    Around the gauze, there are holes.


    Even if the spear is fixed on the wall, a little white powder will fall from the holes of the gauze. Because there is no rapid shaking, there is not much dust falling down.


    This scene was seen by Duan Xu with sharp eyes.


    Duan Xun frowned, but he was puzzled. He couldn''t figure out what he was doing?


    Duan Xu''s eyes turned and fell on Yang Cong and asked, "Mr. Yang, look at the soldiers in charge of defense on the city floor. Each soldier''s long gun is tied with a bag. What seems to be in it? What do you think that is? "


    Yang Cong thought, you don''t know, ask me what to do?


    As Duan''s counselor, when Duan is in a good mood, he calls Mr. Yang Cong by his first name. When Duan is in a bad mood, he calls him by his first name. He was greedy for Duan''s rich salary, so he followed Duan.


    Otherwise, I would have left early.


    Yang Cong thought about it in his heart and then said, "general, I''m afraid these bags are used to resist the attack. It was only when we got close to Chang''an that our whereabouts were revealed. Within a few miles, it was too late for the troops stationed in Chang''an to prepare defensive equipment. So Chang''an''s defenders hastily made these simple things for defense. "


    "Nonsense!"


    When Duan Xu heard this, he called a curse.


    He knew that it was for defense, but Yang Cong made a big call and didn''t get to the point.


    Duan simmered his eyes and looked up the city again.


    By this time, the Xiliang soldiers under Duan''s command were close to the top of the city wall. One by one, soldiers with long guns saw this, carrying guns to the soldiers who climbed up.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp spear penetrated into the soldiers of Xiliang army.


    All of a sudden, blood splashed.


    When the long gun stabbed the soldiers of Xiliang army, the back and forth movement of the gun made the bag wrapped in white gauze shake quickly. With the swing of the gauze, dense white dust is quickly scattered in the holes on the gauze.


    There were hundreds of spearmen on the tower, not one or two. With the dense white dust particles falling from the bag, a white mist is formed.


    The Xiliang soldiers who are climbing up are all covered with the white dust.


    The soldiers of the Xiliang army, with their heads down, didn''t feel anything. But looking up at the soldiers of the Xiliang army, it did not have such a good result. When they looked up, dense white dust particles fell in their eyes.


    In a flash, there was a scream.


    In the eyes of the soldiers, there was a burning sensation, which made people unable to open their eyes.


    This happened to all the soldiers who attacked the city. Originally, the siege was in full swing, but the soldiers who attacked outside the castle were temporarily out of sight because of the dust, and the siege stopped.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bow and arrow, still shooting.


    The huge wood with a thick disc was smashed and hit the soldiers who were attacking the city.


    one by one, the soldiers could not escape and were hit one after another.


    In a short period of time, countless casualties.


    At this moment, the attack of siege was severely damaged, and there was no previous fierce attack.


    "It''s lime. Don''t look up. Watch your eyes. Don''t let lime powder enter your eyes. "


    In the Xiliang army, there are generals shouting.


    As soon as the lime powder enters the eye, because the eyeball is moist, the lime powder will release heat as soon as it meets with water. Although this little bit of lime powder into the eyes, give off little heat, but the eyes are fragile.


    If the lime powder is sprinkled on the skin, even if it is wet with water, because the amount of lime powder is small, the skin will be firmer and will not have much impact.


    But the eyes are different.


    Eyes are too fragile, a little heat, can bring influence to the eyes.


    This is Xu Shu''s killing move.


    Although this kind of defense means is extremely poisonous and will cause harm to countless soldiers of Xiliang army, it is a battle between the two armies. In order to keep Chang''an City, even if Xu Shu couldn''t bear it, he had to do it.


    Tolerance of the enemy is cruelty to one''s own soldiers.


    Xu Shu could not ignore the lives of his soldiers, so as long as he could keep Chang''an City, he would rather use it for everything. Xu Shu listened to the wailing sound from the city tower, looked at the solid city, and his face was more firm than ever.


    No matter what others say, Xu Shu thinks it is right.


    He has to do it!


    The siege of the city slowed down slightly, but not for a long time. After many of the previously injured soldiers of the Xiliang army fell down from the city building, countless soldiers attacked and killed again.The offensive is still in full swing.


    Just now, the scene that the soldiers'' offensive was blocked also fell into Duan''s eyes.


    Duan Geng didn''t respond for a while. The general of the current party sent back the news. Duan Geng knew that it was lime powder that was spilled down. His face was angry and he gritted his teeth and said, "this damned garrison used lime powder. It''s very hard for the powder to fall into the eyes. Hateful, really hateful. Once this will break Chang''an City, it is bound to make him look good. "


    Yang Cong comforted: "general, such a small means, that is, surprise can play an effect, can only succeed once."


    "Our soldiers are now on guard. They are going to rush up with their heads down. They won''t be hurt again. Although the offensive was not as fierce as before, it was enough to suppress the garrison. "


    "As long as our soldiers tear up the defense line of Chang''an Garrison and enter the city, we will win."


    Yang Cong said: "the garrison on the upper floor of Chang''an city is impossible to block our offensive."


    Duan simmered and nodded.


    His eyes, too, were full of fierce color. At this moment, he clenched his fist and encouraged his soldiers.


    Siege, the biggest loss.


    Because on one side of the siege, there must be countless soldiers to attack the city, and they must use the flesh and blood of countless soldiers to open the way.


    This is the biggest loss.


    Only by climbing on the tower, can we stand firmly on the tower, the loss will be greatly reduced. In fact, once the large-scale boarded the tower, in the tower after a foothold, the war will come to an end.


    If the defending side loses the city, it will lose the last line of defense.


    "Herald, the first person who ascends the tower of the city will be rewarded with 100 gold; the first person who kills the soldiers of the city will be rewarded with 100 gold when he is promoted to a higher level. There is a reward for killing the enemy. "


    Duan Wen gave another order.


    As the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards. Duan''s intention is to use simple rewards to encourage soldiers in the army to rush up regardless of everything.


    With the soldiers shouting in order, the news spread to the front battlefield. After hearing the news, all the soldiers under Duan Wen''s command went crazy and rushed up quickly.


    Without awards, they have to go up.


    Now there are awards, so we have to fight hard. What if we get awards?


    For ordinary soldiers, 100 gold is a huge sum of money, enough to make up for the family for a long time. What''s more, it''s more worthwhile to kill the enemy and get promoted.


    One by one, they rushed to the city tower quickly, and the attack was fierce again.


    Xu Shu, sitting on the upper floor of the town, saw that the attack was becoming fiercer and fiercer without any confusion. He arranged for his soldiers to resist in an orderly way and defend the last line of defense.


    Time, little by little.


    There are already corpses under the tower, and countless people have been killed and injured.


    Duan''s army suffered countless casualties.


    Although Duan''s soldiers paid a heavy price, after more than an hour and a half, some soldiers finally got on the tower and began to stand firm on it and fight for the control of the tower.


    More and more people, go to the city.


    This makes Duan Yu happy.


    Kill the tower, the situation is very favorable for him. In fact, in Duan''s opinion, the troops stationed in Chang''an are quite fierce and have resisted for such a long time.


    According to Duan''s consideration, he wanted to break the city for more than half an hour, which was more than half an hour in the past. But it''s not bad now. I finally got to the city building to have a foothold.


    Next, break through the gate.


    Although a large number of Xiliang soldiers killed on the tower, in fact, the rhythm of defense on the tower was still under Xu Shu''s control. Because from the beginning to the end, he didn''t send all his troops up, and there were only a few soldiers on the tower.


    Xu Shu looked at the situation and saw that the fire was almost the same. He immediately gave a secret order to the soldiers around him.


    Soon, the suspension bridge rope was cut off.

 Chapter 314

    "Wow!"


    After the chain of the suspension bridge was cut off, it fell directly. With a bang, the suspension bridge fell to the ground, connecting the city gate and the official road outside the city. After the drop of the suspension bridge, it was more conducive for Han Sui to attack the city.


    Duan simmer, in my eyes, is a great joy.


    Soon!


    It''s going to break the city.


    Even the suspension bridge fell.


    Duan Xun looked at Yang Cong and said with a smile, "Sir, the rope of the suspension bridge has been cut off. It seems that our soldiers have gained a considerable advantage in the castle. "


    Yang Cong said: "what the general said is true. I''m afraid that soon our soldiers will open the gate and cooperate with us. As long as the gate is opened and the army enters the city, the battle will be over. "


    "Exactly so!"


    Duan''s eyes are full of expectations.


    The fighting on the castle continued. About a quarter of an hour later, Xu Shu issued a secret order again.


    "Creak!"


    The gate of the east gate of Chang''an was opened.


    In fact, the soldiers attached to Duan Wen on the castle have not gained the advantage, let alone the upper hand, and are still attacking crazily. When they saw the drawbridge fall, they were very excited. Especially when I saw the city gate open, I was even more excited and yelled to fight.


    However, few of the soldiers of the Xiliang army who fought on the city floor knew how to open the city gate.


    No one is paying attention.


    There is no one to investigate the reasons.


    But outside the city section simmers, saw the city gate opening, immediately excited. He had a preconceived idea that his soldiers had conquered the city gate. Without any hesitation, he ordered: "kill, kill for me and go to the city!"


    The order was given, and ten thousand elite soldiers were put into the battlefield again. Ten thousand strong troops rushed to the gate of the city. When these soldiers swarmed in, the soldiers who were ready to climb under the city tower did not climb any more. They all swarmed along the city gate.


    Dense soldiers, fast in. However, even if these soldiers swarmed into the city, they could not enter the inner city for the time being, because the four gates of Chang''an all had urn cities.


    Wengcheng is a semicircle or square gate protecting town.


    The urn of Chang''an is a square, with walls on both sides. There are archery towers, gates and other defense facilities. As a protective ring of the city, even if the gate of the urn is broken, there is still a gate inside.


    This gate is the real gate.


    Only by breaking the gate inside the urn can we enter the city.


    In fact, this is also the reason why Xu Shu dared to give two secret orders to put down the suspension bridge first and then open the gate of the urn city. Xu Shu''s face flushed as he saw the soldiers swarming into Weng city.


    This is caused by a little excitement.


    This is the most crucial part of the plan.


    Success or failure depends on this.


    Xu Shu arranged for his soldiers to defend themselves at the lane of the inner city to prevent the Xiliang army from entering the inner city from the lane, and then opened the gate of the inner city. Once the gate of the inner city was broken and the Xiliang army entered the urn City, Xu Shu was defeated.


    This is what Xu Shu has to defend.


    Xu Shu is still waiting for his soldiers to delay. He''s guarding him. Nearly a quarter of an hour later, a lot of Xiliang soldiers outside the city entered. After more than 10000 people entered the urn City, Xu Shu''s eyes flashed a light and gave a loud order: "release the Qianjin gate and smash the suspension bridge!"


    When the order was given, the soldier in charge of the equipment center quickly put down the Qianjin gate.


    "Creak! Creak


    The sound of ropes and gears moving slowly sounded, and the giant gate at the East Gate fell.


    At the same time, right above the suspension bridge.


    On the tower, a huge stone was pushed down by the soldiers. The huge stone fell down with a whistling sound, and in the twinkling of an eye it hit the suspension bridge.


    "Boom!"


    Under the impact of the boulder, the suspension bridge immediately disintegrated and the passageway connecting the inside and outside of the city was directly destroyed.


    Xu Shu saw this behind the scenes, again ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    This voice is almost hysterical. With Xu Shu''s order, on the archery tower in the inner city, archers came out one by one. Next to every Archer, there were soldiers with torches.


    One rocket was ignited and fired straight into the urn.


    The soldiers in the urn are full of people.


    Countless people are rushing into the gate of the inner city, hoping to rush in. What''s more, they hope that soldiers will open the gate from inside and let them enter the city, so as to capture Chang''an.


    None of this has come true.


    "Whew! Whew


    One rocket fell and shot into the crowd, and countless soldiers were shot and killed.


    When the rocket landed, the ground of the urn burned immediately. The ground of Wengcheng was covered with a thick layer of weeds. All the weeds were soaked in tung oil and then dried in the sun. The open fire fell on the weeds, and in an instant the weeds began to burn.


    The dense rocket falls, and soon the fire will burst into the sky.The smoke rose in a flash.


    "Help, help!"


    "Knock open the gate, let''s go in."


    "Help


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there are many shouts. The feeling of despair permeated Weng city. Even so, no one can rescue the Xiliang soldiers in the urn.


    Fire snakes scurrying, quickly forming a sea of fire.


    Countless people, struggling in the sea of fire.


    When Xu Shu saw a big fire burning in the urn, he could not bear to see it on his cold face, and was immediately replaced by firmness. Although Xu Shu attacked cruelly with fire, this was the battlefield. There was no benevolence and morality on the battlefield, only bloody killing.


    If you don''t kill Duan''s Xiliang army, Chang''an will fall. The hard won stability is gone.


    This is what Xu Shu didn''t want to see.


    Xu Shu''s eyes fell on the attacking Xiliang army.


    These Xiliang troops have lost their stamina. The reason is very simple. With the opening of the city gate, all the troops who attacked the city on a large scale went into Weng city.


    Even if there are countless people fighting on the city floor, the situation is over.


    Xu Shu immediately gave another order, once again dispatched 3000 soldiers to join the fight on the city floor.


    The situation changed as soon as three thousand men entered the battlefield. The Xiliang army, which had not been able to make enough offensive and could only barely stand firm on the tower, began to retreat, unable to stop the garrison on the tower.


    This scene, fell in the eyes of the section outside the city.


    Duan''s cheek was twitching and his eyes were full of incredible expression.


    How is that possible?


    Just now, all the soldiers under his command had the upper hand. They had already killed on the top of the city. Even the soldiers put down the suspension bridge and opened the gate of the city. On this basis, he should be able to win quickly. Why does the situation change suddenly?


    Duan''s eyes fell on the urn.


    I saw the smoke rolling up, and there were countless screams.


    "Gudong!"


    Duan Xu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and a trace of panic passed in his eyes.


    He is also a Veteran General in the army. He is familiar with the tactics of war and knows more about Chang''an city. At the moment, I saw the smoke rising in Weng City, and immediately understood the burning light.


    It''s a trick!


    The drop of the suspension bridge is intentional; the opening of the city gate is intentional.


    Everything is in each other''s calculation. All the purpose is to let all the troops under his command enter the urn city. Then, use the simplest and easiest fire attack to burn all the soldiers.


    It''s over!


    Duan simmered and murmured to himself.


    He knew that he had been raised, especially when he saw the opening of the city gate, he didn''t analyze the situation at all. He just wanted to fight into the city, and even sent 10000 elite soldiers to fight into the city.


    He was too complacent to be so.


    Yang Cong also swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes fell on the previous position of Xu Shu. Today, he does not know who Zhang Xiu is in charge of the army?


    Who the hell is this?


    It was so powerful.


    Yang Cong looked nervous and quickly suggested: "general, our army has suffered a heavy loss. It''s quite difficult to withdraw now! Withdraw to Huayin county and fight again next time. "


    "No, we can''t retreat!"


    Duan Xun''s eyes are full of madness.


    "How can we not take revenge for such deceiving me?"


    Duan Wen''s gnashing of teeth, his chest constantly ups and downs, only feel the chest Qi and blood surge, a sweet throat, open mouth wow spit out a mouthful of blood.


    His face turned pale.


    Duan Xun''s eyes were cold and gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "even if all the soldiers who had been on the battlefield were ambushed in Weng City, there are still 10000 elite soldiers under the general''s command. These ten thousand elite soldiers are enough to attack Chang''an. Chang''an has few defenders, so it can only rely on intrigue to win. But now, they can''t do anything else. "


    Duan simmer at the moment, like a crazy gambler, completely lost his mind.


    He''s going to make another bet.


    He has to win.


    If he fails and returns to Hongnong County in a mess, his army''s combat effectiveness will be greatly damaged. After his strength is weakened, it will be quite difficult to negotiate a good price with Cao Cao.


    This is a long time I don''t want to.

 Chapter 315

    When Yang Cong saw Duan''s ferocious look, he was even more worried.


    At this time, Duan is desperate.


    In case of failure, how to deal with the simmer?


    Yang Cong worried about his own safety and suggested: "Lord, the people on the tower are very cunning. He first attacked our soldiers with lime powder, and now he ambushes our soldiers with fire, causing us great losses. "


    "Who knows, he has no other means."


    "I suggest retreat."


    "Now withdraw from Chang''an, return to Huayin County, and no longer be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. At this time, we still have considerable strength. After returning to Huayin County, we can reorganize the army and recruit soldiers, and still recover our combat effectiveness. "


    Yang Cong said: "but if all the troops are consumed here, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    "I don''t care!"


    Duan simmer now, has lost his mind.


    He wants to win.


    "Sonorous!"


    Duan Xun suddenly pulled out his sword, pointed at Yang Cong, and said coldly, "if you Yang Cong persuade me again, I will kill you immediately. There is no mercy for those who disturb our morale! "


    Yang Cong''s cheek twitched slightly and sighed in his heart.


    This is always the case with Duan Wei.


    He is too headstrong to listen to persuasion.


    Duan Xun saw that Yang Cong didn''t speak any more, so he immediately ordered: "the whole army will attack, kill me and go up to the city building. If we take Chang''an, we will reward all the soldiers in the army. Kill me


    Duan Wen gave the order.


    At this time of the section simmer, has been out.


    With Duan''s command, only 10000 elite soldiers left under his command began to fight in the battlefield, rushing to the city tower regardless of everything, intending to conquer Chang''an city.


    This scene falls in Xu Shu''s eyes.


    Xu Shu saw that Duan Xun didn''t retreat, instead, he went all out to attack, and his face suddenly showed a smile.


    It''s a good thing that Duan is crazy like a gambler''s attack.


    What Xu Shu was worried about was that Duan Lu retreated rationally after his defeat.


    If Duan is still rational and retreats at this time, Xu Shu is really not sure what to do with Duan. After all, Duan''s hands still have quite a lot of elite. It''s not easy to wipe out Duan.


    Now Duan is mad. Let all the soldiers attack. Xu Shu can use the city defense of Chang''an city to consume Duan''s troops.


    Xu Shu looked at the fire in Weng city.


    The fire is still burning.


    Countless Xiliang soldiers under his command died in the sea of fire. Even if the soldiers struggle and scream, it will not help. Because the urn is surrounded by walls, it is impossible to escape.


    This is inevitable.


    Xu Shu didn''t take charge of everything in Weng city. He saw countless Xiliang soldiers coming again. He ordered to transfer all the elite soldiers to the city tower to guard.


    After a short time, Duan''s soldiers arrived at the foot of the city, and more than ten thousand soldiers attacked again. A lot of soldiers attacked the city and went straight to the top of the city.


    There are still archers shooting on the tower, waves of bows and arrows fall, taking countless lives of soldiers. It wasn''t long before many soldiers were killed on the city floor.


    Xu Shu is indifferent to face, steady deployment to resist. He doesn''t need to do it himself, he just needs to dispatch.


    Xu Shu is in the army.


    Xu Shu was calm, and the soldiers in the army were at ease and tried their best to resist.


    Because Xu Shu is the backbone.


    This wave of Xiliang soldiers killed on the upper floor of the city and fought with Xu Shu''s soldiers. In a short time, it was very difficult to separate them. In a certain period of time, the soldiers of Xiliang army occupied a section of the city, but they were soon driven down again, and the two sides saw each other back and forth.


    The war has been going on.


    Xu Shu saw that Duan Xu''s soldiers had fallen into the battlefield, and his eyes flashed a light.


    Almost!


    This battle is almost over.


    "Come on, drum!"


    Xu Shu gave an order again. With the order, soon, the drum of war was booming on the tower. The frequency of the drum is very special. It lasted for a cup of tea.


    Xu Shu had a smile on his lips.


    The news comes out, waiting for Huang Zhong''s action.


    In fact, just now Xu Shu ordered the soldiers to beat the drum in order to pass on the news to Huang Zhong. Because Huang Zhong''s hiding place is near Shanglin garden, even close to Chang''an City, but there is a distance.


    It would be a waste of time for Xu Shu to send letters alone. The best way is to send the message to the hidden sentry outside the city with the beating of war drums, and then the Sentry will send the message with a loud arrow.


    Pass on one section at a time. In the shortest time, you can pass on the message.


    Of course, Xu Shu could use the beacon smoke to send messages and light the beacon smoke in the city, but that kind of action could easily alert Duan Wen. The sound of beating drums could make Duan Wen understand as encouraging soldiers to fight and not frighten Duan Wen away.Xu Shu''s drumming also depends on the situation.


    If Xu Shu is in Chang''an and fails to deal a heavy blow to Duan Xun, even if Huang Zhong attacks Duan Xun''s rear, it is impossible to defeat Duan Xun. Then Xu Shu will not pass on the news, but will let Huang Zhong ambush in Shanglinyuan play freely and let Huang Zhong look for a chance to fight.


    Once Xu Shu severely damaged Duan Wen in Chang''an and weakened Duan Wen''s troops, Xu Shu would send a message to Huang Zhong, let Huang Zhong lead his troops out and cut off Duan Wen''s retreat.


    This is Xu Shu''s arrangement.


    The drums rumbled and Xu Shu''s soldiers heard it. They were fighting and fighting.


    The killing on the tower continues.


    A corpse is lying on the city tower, and countless blood flows out.


    Fighting is extremely fierce.


    At this time, Duan simmer outside the city, with crazy eyes, holding hands tightly, staring at the city upstairs, looking forward to winning. Even if he heard the sound of the war drum, he didn''t pay attention to it. He didn''t feel strange about beating the drum.


    He would beat the drum to cheer the soldiers.


    Not to mention the garrison in Chang''an?


    Yang Cong listened, but instinctively felt that something was wrong. He immediately tried to persuade, but when the words came to his mouth, he immediately swallowed them.


    At this time, he did not dare to persuade Duan to be killed by Duan.


    What if Duan Wen kills him?


    Yang Cong is well aware of Duan''s temperament. He is headstrong and can kill people without blinking an eye. He can''t bear Duan''s anger.


    Yang Cong prayed in his heart, hoping to win.


    Hope to win Chang''an.


    Otherwise, Duan will be defeated at the expense of his troops.


    When the fighting continued, Huang Zhong in the direction of Shanglin garden soon got the news. He rubbed to his feet, with a happy look on his face, and said with great joy: "good, good, good. I didn''t expect that Xu Shangshu could hurt Duan Xun badly. Our chance has come. This battle will be won in Chang''an. "


    "Listen to the wolf''s teeth


    Huang Zhong gave the order.


    A thousand soldiers of Langya battalion, all in formation, are full of energy and fighting spirit.


    Zhang Xiu left Chang''an with the army. Chen Zhi took only 2000 elite soldiers from the Langya camp, but did not take all of them, leaving behind 1000 cavalry soldiers.


    Huang zhongzang is in Shanglin garden, with 5000 flying bear soldiers and 1000 cavalry of Langya camp.


    Surprise attack must be based on cavalry.


    Huang Zhong ordered: "the cavalry of Langya camp will go first with this general, and go to Chang''an to attack Duan Lu first. The soldiers of the flying bear army followed, cutting off the road to Hongnong


    "Here it is


    All of them answered.


    Everyone''s neat answer is full of fighting spirit and ready to go.


    "Let''s go!"


    After Huang Zhong gave the order, he turned over and got on his horse, carrying a long knife, and went out to fight with a thousand cavalry of Langya camp.


    "Da! "Da!"


    The swift horse''s hooves trampled on the ground.


    A thousand cavalry raced away, the mighty horseshoes trampled down, and the ground roared. From a distance, you can see that the ground is full of smoke and dust.

 Chapter 316

    The fighting at the east gate of Chang''an city continues.


    Duan Xu sits on the horse, with thick blood in his eyes. His mouth is still hanging a trace of blood, and his heart is a little closed, which is very uncomfortable.


    But I don''t care.


    He wants to enter Chang''an.


    Even if he paid a huge price, he won Chang''an. Only by taking Chang''an, can he find back all the losses in this war, and turn Zhang Xiu''s army away.


    Of course, Duan doesn''t think Zhang Xiu can come back. After all, Zhang Xiu is under great pressure from Ma Teng and Han Sui. For Duan, if he wins Chang''an, his strength can go further.


    There''s a loss, and it''s worth it.


    Duan Xun clenches his fist and looks at Yang Cong and his relatives. He wants Yang Cong and his relatives to fight each other and increase their strength. It''s a pity that Yang Cong has no strength to bind a chicken. The soldiers around him also have to protect his safety.


    "We must win!"


    "You can''t fail!"


    "Only win, not lose!"


    "I''ve been simmering all my life with the wind and the water. This war, for sure, will not fail. In this battle, Chang''an will be won and a great victory will be won. "


    Duan simmered and murmured to himself.


    He is under a lot of pressure at the moment and hopes to win as soon as possible.


    Time goes by little.


    The fighting never ended. Duan''s soldiers kept on attacking, but after attacking the city, they were soon beaten down, and they were unable to get a firm foothold on the city tower.


    From the beginning to the end, you can hear the screams of your soldiers in Weng city. He hoped that his soldiers would enter the city earlier, open the gate of the inner city, and let them out of trouble.


    Unfortunately, I can''t do anything about it.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, at the back of Duan''s simmer, a sentry flying horse came.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid and came running.


    The sentry drove his horse on the road quickly, and his face was very nervous, as if his parents were dead. After a while, the sentinel came to Duan''s side and reported, "general, the big deal is not good."


    "What happened?" Duan asked


    Sentinel report: "report back to general, our rear suddenly appeared an enemy, suspected to be Zhang Xiu''s cavalry. In addition, there are a lot of infantry coming after them


    Click!


    Duan''s heart sank.


    How can there be cavalry?


    Why are there infantry?


    Duan could not help swallowing his dry saliva and asked again, "how many cavalry and infantry are there. How far is it from us? "


    He asked several questions in a row.


    A heart, suspended in mid air, very nervous.


    The sentry immediately said, "there are about a thousand cavalry coming. The infantry are not clear because of the long distance. According to preliminary estimates, there are at least three to five thousand people. The cavalry is less than five miles away from us. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Duan was so angry that he swore.


    For the cavalry, the distance of five miles is only a short distance, which can be reached in a short time.


    Duan simmered and cursed: "why did you find out at this time?"


    The sentry didn''t say a word.


    The enemy appeared suddenly, but he didn''t find it. What can he do. Just sentry in front of Duan Xu, silent, just hanging head, dare not sophistry.


    Section simmers a way: "roll to explore again!"


    "Here it is


    The sentry was so busy that he flew away.


    Yang Cong was also extremely nervous. He asked, "Lord, what shall we do?"


    "Are you a pig?"


    "The reinforcements of Chang''an suddenly appeared in our rear. What else can we do? Withdraw!"


    "What a fool


    Duan simmered at the moment, just like a raging lion with a fierce temper, and ordered: "Mingjin, stop fighting, and retreat immediately. We''re retreating now. We can''t retreat the way we came. We have to bypass the pursuit of the cavalry. "


    "Yes


    Yang Cong immediately conveyed the order.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The Gong rings and reverberates in the air.


    The sound spread to the city tower, one by one the soldiers of Xiliang army who were on the city tower no longer loved fighting, but retreated like a tide.


    Countless soldiers retreated, Xu Shu saw, immediately relieved. Despite his calm command and the fact that the situation has not collapsed, he has always been under great pressure.


    Because what he can mobilize are ordinary regular soldiers, whose combat effectiveness is weaker, and they can''t be compared with the flying bear army, Langya battalion and liehu army.


    It''s not easy to resist with the help of conventional forces.


    Xu Shu looked at the urn city. The fire continued, and the scream became smaller and smaller. Almost all the soldiers under Duan''s command died.In this battle, he held the tower.


    Xu Shu''s eyes fell on Duan Xu. When he saw Duan Xu withdraw, his eyes flashed.


    Reinforcements are coming!


    It must be the cavalry of Langya battalion led by Huang Zhong, otherwise Duan will not withdraw.


    Xu Shu''s eyes are fixed on Duan Xu''s action. When he mobilizes the retreated soldiers to turn around, he goes to the South Gate of Chang''an. It is obvious that Duan is going to take the south gate to make a circle, and then to the east to withdraw to Hongnong county.


    Xu Shu had a sneer on his lips.


    It''s not that easy.


    Now that you''re here, don''t try to withdraw easily.


    Xu Shu was sure that there would be reinforcements, and he would not delay any longer. He ordered: "blow the trumpet and order the soldiers of the flying bear army to attack."


    "Woo! Woo


    On the tower, a long horn sounded.


    As soon as the sound rang out, hundreds of feet south of the east gate, an army of 3000 soldiers suddenly rushed out of the woods.


    This is Huang Zhong''s flying bear army.


    Huang Zhong led 6000 soldiers to hide in the direction of Shanglin garden. There were 1000 elite cavalry of Langya camp and 5000 soldiers of flying bear army. The rest of the 3000 flying bear soldiers were given to Xu Shu, who was used to guard the city.


    However, Xu Shu placed the flying bear army outside the city as an ambush. With the three thousand flying bear soldiers, they went directly to Duan Xun and his soldiers.


    "Flying bear army, I''m invincible!"


    "Kill


    In the flying bear army, three thousand soldiers shout. One by one, the soldiers with swords were running with great strides, quickly blocking Duan''s retreat.


    The soldiers gathered under Duan''s command were only five or six thousand for the time being, and they were very tired.


    Although, there are still soldiers gathering in the future.


    But Duan is surrounded by such a force for the time being. These soldiers went up to the city building in a swarm to fight with the garrison, which consumed too much physical strength and weakened their combat effectiveness.


    In particular, Duan Wen was ambushed one after another, and the morale of the soldiers in the army was turbulent. One by one, the soldiers lost their previous high morale. When they were killed by 3000 flying bear soldiers, they immediately retreated and were unable to resist.


    The whole section of the simmering army is in complete disorder.


    Duan Xun''s face showed an eager look. He turned his eyes and looked around. He found that the soldiers around him had begun to flee.


    Lost!


    Duan Xun knew that this battle was a complete defeat.


    The most important thing now is how to escape. Once the cavalry catch up, it''s more difficult to escape. Duan Xun immediately took off his bright armor, took off his silver helmet and gave it to Yang Cong, saying, "come on, put it on!"


    "Ah


    Yang Cong exclaimed.


    This is to let him pretend to be a stew. This is to let him die.


    When Yang dengcong saw his hesitation, he jumped quickly.


    Duan Xun slapped Yang Cong heavily on the shoulder and said, "Yang Cong, now take the soldiers to the West. I will let the army represent my big standard and follow you. Ben''s safety is up to you. "


    Yang Cong''s face was very sad, but he said with a smile: "I''ll live up to the general''s trust."


    "Go


    Give me an order.


    Yang Cong immediately rode on the road, with a large number of soldiers to the west to break through. At this time, Yang Cong''s armor was very conspicuous, and there was a big flag following him. Duan Rong even made the soldiers shout "Duan Rong is going to the West.".


    This method attracts the flying bear army.


    The mighty soldiers of Feixiong army gave up Duan Xu and went after Yang Cong instead.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, in the rear of Duan Wen, cavalry quickly appeared. It was the cavalry of Langya battalion led by Huang Zhong.


    "Withdraw!"


    Duan Xu saw Huang Zhong arrive and immediately ordered to retreat. Yang Cong attracted the soldiers of the flying bear army. On Duan''s way to retreat to the south, there were fewer soldiers to stop him, so he could evacuate quickly.


    Duan Lu and his bodyguards were all cavalry. They all retreated very fast, and they were all elite and had strong fighting capacity. Even if there were soldiers in front of them, they were killed by Duan Lu one after another.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Duan Wen cuts the soldiers of the Feixiong army and speeds up his retreat.


    At this time, Duan is satisfied as long as he can escape, regardless of the life or death of his soldiers. It''s just that Duan''s killing during his retreat falls into Huang Zhong''s eyes.


    This aroused Huang Zhong''s suspicion.

 Chapter 317

    Duan Lu is the chief General of the Xiliang army. He has a personal guard to protect his safety. Not only that, Duan''s bodyguards must be cavalry, not ordinary soldiers.


    This is Huang Zhong''s judgment.


    In particular, although some soldiers followed Duan''s banner and many soldiers followed Duan''s direction, they didn''t see any real pro guard elite accompanying them.


    Is this a simmer?


    Huang Zhong had a guess in his heart, and his mind turned like lightning, so he had a judgment immediately.


    In the direction of Duan''s big flag, there are countless soldiers chasing him. Even if he takes the cavalry of Langya camp to pursue him, it''s the icing on the cake at most, and it doesn''t play a big role.


    Chasing, or not, has little effect.


    But if the guard of more than 100 cavalry is Duan Xu, if he missed it, he would have let off Duan Xu.


    Huang Zhong immediately made a decision and ordered: "the whole army will follow me!"


    He took the lead, carrying a long knife to quickly drive along the rear of Duan simmer. A thousand soldiers of Langya camp follow Huang Zhong to turn around and follow him to Duan Xu''s direction.


    This situation made me jump.


    Good guy, he asked Yang Cong to attract troops. Why did the cavalry in the rear come after him.


    What''s going on?


    In particular, it was not one or two cavalry that came to the rear, but more than 1000 cavalry. All the cavalry killed from the rear came running for him.


    "Retreat, full retreat."


    Duan simmered in the heart of emergency, quickly on the horse retreat.


    More than 100 bodyguards around him followed, and they also retreated at full speed.


    Just like this, Huang Zhong''s judgment is more solid. Huang Zhong ordered the pursuit, especially Huang Zhong himself, to pursue with the fastest speed, constantly narrowing the distance between the two sides.


    This pursuit is farther and farther away from Chang''an City, and time is also passing.


    The distance between the two sides has gradually narrowed.


    A hundred steps!


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides was reduced to 40 steps, Huang Zhong had been chasing for more than half an hour. It''s Huang Zhong who is speeding up, and the other side is also speeding up.


    It''s not easy to get closer.


    When the distance was shortened to 40 steps, Huang Zhong made a plan and ordered: "the soldiers of the 100 Langya camp pull aside. While running, they shoot short guns at the same time to kill the cavalry in front."


    If all the cavalry attack with short guns, it will cause great damage to the cavalry in front.


    Once a shotgun is used, the speed of driving will slow down. If he can''t hit the other side, he will let the other side escape. So Huang Zhong asked the soldiers of 100 Langya battalion to lean to the side, which would not affect the pursuit of the rest of the cavalry, but also could shoot short guns at the fleeing cavalry in front of him.


    One by one, the soldiers quickly took out the shotgun, and when the horses were charging forward, they leaned back and shot the shotgun fiercely. With the help of horsepower and the rapid sprint of the horse, the shotgun is very fast.


    In the twinkling of an eye, he came to the position of Duan Xu''s cavalry.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    Short guns fell and penetrated the soldiers.


    Scream, immediately sounded.


    More than ten cavalry were killed on the spot by a wave of short guns. Several horses were injured and several cavalry were left behind.


    Under Duan''s command, nearly 20 people were injured on the spot.


    In my eyes, Duan''s meat is very painful.


    Now, there are only a hundred cavalry guards around him. If they are constantly shot, the strength to protect him will be less and less.


    I regret this moment.


    If you had known this, you should have listened to Yang Cong''s advice. If you had retreated earlier, you would not have been ambushed or in danger.


    Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine.


    Huang Zhong saw a wave of shooting nearly 20 people, and as he raced, he ordered, "come again!"


    Cavalry of Langya camp, shoot the shotgun again.


    With the continuous shooting of short guns, the number of soldiers around Duan is getting smaller and smaller, from 100 to 80, from 80 to 60. When the number drops sharply to 20, Duan''s eyes have a look of panic.


    Because the distance between the two sides has been shortened to about 20 steps.


    Huang Zhong saw the distance between the two sides getting closer and saw Duan Wen protected by the soldiers. Huang Zhong has made up his mind about Duan long under the protection of cavalry.


    He was very clear that this man must be a long simmer, otherwise it would not be so difficult.


    Twenty steps is very close for Huang Zhong. Previously, Huang Zhong was always catching up at full speed, constantly narrowing the distance, because he was afraid that he would lose Duan Xu and could not see Duan Xu.


    But now we can see that, and the distance is closer, Huang Zhong holds the horse''s belly with his legs, and his body is as stable as Mount Tai, standing on the horse''s back. The long knife in his hand was on the horse''s back, and then he quickly took down the big bow at his waist, and then he took down a bow and arrow and put it on the bow string.


    The horse was still running fast. Although the speed slowed down, Huang Zhong ignored it. When the body is steady, bend the bow and take the arrow, then aim at the position of Duan Xu."Yes


    Huang Zhong gave a low drink.


    As soon as the hand was released, the bow and arrow came out of the string and turned into a streamer. In an instant, it came to Duan''s back.


    Duan''s martial arts are also close to his body. When he hears the sound of breaking the air behind him, he feels tight in his heart. He didn''t look back at all. Without hesitation, he leaned over the horse to avoid the bow and arrow from behind.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp arrow penetrates into the hip of the horse.


    An arrow goes deep.


    Huang Zhong''s arrow was originally a horse at the bottom of his crotch. As long as Duan Wen is left behind, it''s easy to win Duan Wen. So Huang Zhong didn''t shoot Duan Wen.


    When the arrow is fired, the opponent has martial arts skills. Maybe he can avoid it.


    "Herod!"


    The horses whine bitterly, jerk their hips, shake their hooves and run madly. Under the strong power swing, Duan simmer couldn''t lie down steadily at all, and was thrown out directly. People in the air across an arc, crash to the ground.


    "Ah


    Duan''s face is painful.


    He seemed to have fallen apart, but Duan was a veteran on the battlefield after all. A man of his origin is not bad at martial arts. He has experienced hardships and has great toughness.


    Even though Duan was in pain, Duan endured the pain. At once, a carp stood up and rushed to the cavalry horse, ready to ride with his guards.


    "Whew!"


    Another arrow came.


    Duan just wanted to rush forward, but he stopped immediately, a side body to avoid the bow and arrow.


    Huang Zhong has already rushed up the pause.


    "Duan simmer, take my knife!"


    Huang Zhong has put away his long bow. He has a knife in his hand, and the long knife rotates in the air. The blade is raised, and then he cuts it off. That June sun shining, as if there is a dazzling competition, flash in the air, will be Duan simmer cut.


    "General, get out of the way."


    A pro guard cavalry turned his horse and rushed forward, carrying a knife to the next plane, intending to resist Huang Zhong''s knife.


    "Dang!"


    The powerful sound of impact, immediately sounded.


    At the next moment, the sword intended to resist Huang Zhong''s blade was chopped and fell to the ground. Pro Wei didn''t even have the power to hold the handle, so the tiger''s mouth broke.


    The blade continued to cut down towards the section. Gain and loss section simmer a side, staggered a little distance, just to avoid the cutting edge.


    "Bang!"


    The blade fell to the ground, making a dull sound.


    Huang Zhongyi mentions the blade, sees Duan Xu hiding in the side, and then swings the knife to cut again. A knife splits out, cuts a cavalry guard in front of him, and then swings a knife to Duan Wen.


    At the moment of the section simmer, heart shivering, has been afraid to the extreme.


    Who is this?


    The skill of one hand is so terrible.


    Duan Xun''s own personal guard is a valiant soldier with strong strength. However, his own personal guards played down the fact that they were killed, and even the rest of the soldiers didn''t have the courage to resist.


    The people in front of us are terrible!

 Chapter 318

    Huang Zhong''s knife falls, and the guards around Duan Wen dare not step forward. At this moment, Duan Wen feels unavoidable. He fell to the ground again from the battle horse. Facing Huang Zhong''s knife, he could only pull out his sword, hold the hilt with both hands, and met it fiercely.


    "Dang!"


    The bright blade cuts on Duan''s sword handle.


    "Chaka!"


    Duan Xun''s sword blade was directly cut into two pieces by this knife and fell to the ground with a bang.


    The knife continued to fall.


    The blade is unparalleled.


    Duan simmer could not avoid it. He felt terrible and roared: "I surrender!"


    But Huang Zhong, as if he had never heard of it, kept dropping his knife.


    "Yes


    The blade falls and cuts on Duan''s left shoulder. Even if the knife fell on the bone, the blade did not stop at all. It was like cutting into tofu. It continued down the left shoulder and finally cut out from the rib on Duan''s right side.


    After the blade was cut out, there was no blood.


    Duan''s body did not change at all, as if he had not been hit by a knife. He still had breath and said, "who are you?"


    At the moment when the words were uttered, only a puff was heard. Duan simmer''s left shoulder to the right side of the rib, the bloodstain cracked, and the blood splashed out directly. His upper body fell down together.


    "Bang!"


    Broken into two pieces of the body fell on the ground, twitching two times in succession, just no breath.


    Huang Zhong cut Duan Wen. After Duan died, Huang Zhong looked at the rest of the cavalry. He didn''t even open his mouth to surrender. There were only more than ten cavalry left, all of them dismounted directly.


    After Huang Zhong inquired, he determined that Duan Rong was really the one killed. Duan Wen, who lived in Hongnong County for many years, died under Huang Zhongdao.


    "Stop and go back to Chang''an."


    Huang Zhong succeeded in covering up and ordered to retreat.


    Duan''s head was cut off, and the body was buried on the spot. Huang Zhong killed Duan Rong and chased him as fast as he could for more than half an hour. He had already run a long distance.


    Especially on the way, all the way running, without the slightest pause, the horse is desperate to run, that speed is far faster than the usual speed.


    Huang Zhong took people back, but the speed was slower.


    After running for an hour, I came back to Chang''an. When Huang Zhong returned, the war inside and outside Chang''an city was over, and countless soldiers were cleaning the battlefield.


    The suspension bridges at the city gates have been replaced, and the city gates have been completely opened.


    It''s getting late.


    Huang Zhong led the soldiers into the city along the suspension bridge. When he entered Weng City, he could feel the heat of the urn because of the fire. However, the water in the urn had been splashed, the fire had been extinguished, and all the bodies had been removed.


    As soon as Huang Zhong and his troops entered the city, Xu Shu rushed to meet them. With an eager look on his face, he solemnly said, "general Hansheng, the Duan Lu caught by the soldiers in the army is fake. Only after I was put on trial did I know that the man I caught was Yang Cong, Duan''s counselor. The real section simmers, escaped. Alas, this time I won a great victory, but I only ran for a long time and fell short of success. "


    Huang Zhong looked relaxed and said: "Xu Shangshu, don''t worry, Duan Wen has died under my knife. I''ve brought back Duan''s corpse and left it to the soldiers to seal up with lime. "


    Xu Shu had previously secretly blamed himself.


    At the moment, hearing Huang Zhong''s words, he immediately laughed and said happily, "OK, OK, I didn''t let Duan Xu run away. Otherwise, our battle in Chang''an will be in vain. "


    Huang Zhong said, "Xu Shangshu is already cleaning up the battlefield. How is the war going?"


    After hearing this, Xu Shu looked even more happy and said, "this time, we won the battle with Duan Xu. Of course, in order to resist Duan''s attack this time, we have also damaged countless soldiers. "


    "In Duan, 16000 people were killed, more than 8000 soldiers were captured, and some of them fled."


    "On our side, more than 8000 people died in the war."


    "In order to block the siege of Duan Xu''s army, the regular soldiers in the city never retreated from the beginning to the end. This battle has been very hard. They are worthy heroes. "


    Xu Shu continued: "I think the reason why this war can be won completely depends on the death battle of conventional soldiers. Without their obstruction in the city floor, Duan can''t put all his eggs in one basket and can''t leave Duan. "


    Huang Zhong said with emotion: "what Xu Shangshu said is true. The war was really fierce. However, it is also worth the loss of 8000 soldiers in exchange for the victory of defeating Duan''s army and killing Duan. "


    Xu Shu asked curiously, "how did general Hansheng find Duan Xun? Duan Xun is so cunning that Yang Cong disguises himself to attract our attention. "


    Huang Zhong said with a smile, "it''s also luck."


    Xu Shu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Huang Zhong explained: "when I arrived outside the east gate, I saw Duan Lu, played by Yang Cong, leave. When I was about to catch up, I suddenly found that more than 100 cavalry had left. ""At that time, I thought that Duan''s best team must be his personal guard."


    "Duan''s bodyguard is Jingqi."


    "At that time, there were countless flying bear soldiers chasing fake Duan, so I didn''t need to go. So at that time, I pursued with the cavalry of Langya camp. After running for more than half an hour, I caught up with Duan Wen and killed him. "


    Huang Zhong grinned and said, "so it''s all luck. If I arrive earlier or later, I can''t find the scene of Duan''s leaving. It was at that point in time that I noticed the pro guard cavalry


    Xu Shu laughed and said, "it''s all God''s blessing. He was killed at that time."


    Huang Zhong said: "Xu Shangshu, I will go to the whole army."


    "Good!"


    Xu Shu nodded.


    Now when Huang Zhong returned to the city, Xu Shu didn''t take charge of the affairs in the army, leaving Huang Zhong to reorganize the army and reorganize the prisoners. Xu Shu''s focus returned to government affairs, dealing with Zhang Xiu''s government affairs.


    One day after the end of the war in Chang''an, the cavalry of Langya camp led by Zhang Xiu returned to Chang''an at midnight the next morning.


    The army is still behind.


    Zhang Xiu and Chen Dao led the Langya camp to return first because they were worried about the war in Chang''an. After Zhang Xiu arrived, she entered from Ximen and went straight back to the army. After settling in the soldiers, she called Huang Zhong to learn about the war in Chang''an.


    After hearing Huang Zhong''s report, Zhang Xiu praises Xu Shu''s calmness and determination, and regrets Duan''s bad luck. Duan Wen has come up with a way to get rid of the golden cicada, but he is still taken down.


    After describing the war in Chang''an, Huang Zhong asked, "Lord, what''s the situation in Chencang county?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the war in Chencang county is over. In this battle with Han Sui and Ma Teng, we captured Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, as well as Han Sui''s general Yan Xing. Chencang county has been recaptured. Only Han Sui and Ma Chao fled. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    After hearing the results of Chencang County, Huang Zhong couldn''t help but praise it.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay long in the army. After learning the war situation in detail, she went back to the general''s house. As soon as he returned, Xu Shu, Liu Ba and Li Yan all came to report the recent events, as well as the money and food consumed in the war.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, food is abundant and money is numerous, but it can operate easily.


    Everything is working well.


    Zhang Xiu arranged all kinds of things and asked Liu Ba to coordinate the allocation of money by the household department to reward the soldiers for their meritorious service in the war. In addition, she also needed Xu Shu''s official department to reward the good and punish the evil, and reward the meritorious soldiers for promotion.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of footwork came from outside the hall.


    Wang Yue came in.


    He came striding in a black robe with a sword hanging from his waist. In Wang Yue''s hand, he still had a letter. After he stood still, he handed the letter to Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "Lord, this is the news that Hongnong county has just sent back."

 Chapter 319

    Zhang Xiu took the letter and opened it for quick browsing. After reading the news on the letter, he had a dignified look on his brow. The message in the letter is that after Duan Lu sent troops to attack Chang''an, the rear area was empty.


    Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang took the opportunity to send general Sui Gu to capture Huayin county.


    Of course, with the courage and boldness, he did not have the courage to send troops to Hongnong county and attacked Duan''s rear. It was Yuan Shao, a herdsman in Jizhou, who was behind the scenes.


    Yuan Shao sent General Yan Liang to lead 10000 elite troops to help Zhang Yang capture Huayin county. After Zhang Yang captured Huayin County, Yan Liang continued to send troops to sweep Hongnong County in a short time, and won the whole Hongnong county.


    The layout of Guanzhong by Yuan Shao was a great change for Zhang Xiu.


    In history, Yuan Shao never intervened in Guanzhong, and his main energy was concentrated on Bingzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou. After Cao Cao captured Guanzhong, Yuan Shao had pressure to fight with Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said, "come on, inform Li Ru to come to discuss the matter."


    Now, Li Ru is the only one who is free.


    After all, Li Ru is in charge of the Ministry of punishment.


    The Ministry of war, which Jia Xu was in charge of, had to approve awards and pensions for the soldiers. The whole Ministry of war had many things to do.


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "let''s have a closer look at the situation of Hongnong county and the publicity of Hanoi county. Especially today''s publicity, is it subordinate to Yuan Shao, or just cooperate with Yuan Shao? We need to find out all the information carefully. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answered and left.


    Not long after Wang Yue left, Li Ru entered the hall and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu waved to Li Ru to sit down and said, "Wenyou, I just got the news from Hongnong county. Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang and Yuan Shao''s army sent troops to Hongnong. Now, Hongnong county is under the control of Yuan Shao. Sui Gu, a famous general, lived in Huayin county. Yan Liang, the general of Yuan Shao, controls the whole Hongnong county. "


    Li Ru frowned and said: "the mantis catches the cicada, the Yellow sparrow is behind. I didn''t expect that after the Yellow Finch, there were still hunters in ambush. It is reasonable to say that Yuan Shao''s main forces were all attacking Gongsun Zan. How could he think of attacking Guanzhong? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "under Yuan Shao''s command, there are many counsellors with the overall situation view, and there are many powerful people. Whether it is Tian Feng, or Ju Shu, or Xu you and others, they can see through the situation. "


    "It''s very likely that we went to Guanzhong, killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and captured youfufeng and Jingzhao areas, which caused Yuan Shao''s fear. In addition, some counsellors persuaded him, so Yuan Shao sent Yan Liang into Guanzhong."


    "This makes it more difficult for us to unify Guanzhong."


    Zhang Xiu eyes sharp, said: "next to attack Hongnong County, the difficulty increased."


    "That''s true!"


    Li Ru nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in the current situation, what do you think we should do?"


    Li Ru pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Lord, even if it is difficult to attack Hongnong County, we must send troops. The whole Guanzhong must be under the control of the Lord. However, in the current situation, it is not suitable to send troops for the time being. To attack Hongnong County, we have to wait until after September. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Li Ru said, "there are four reasons to be humble."


    "First, July is the hottest time in summer. At this time, it is extremely hard for the soldiers in the army to work hard on expeditions. The weather in June and July is unbearable to the soldiers. "


    "Second, it is about to enter the autumn harvest season, and the whole Chang''an region needs to harvest grain. Although it may not be a good harvest in Guanzhong this year, it is also excellent to ensure that the grain planted will be harvested. "


    "Third, although they won the war with Han Sui and Ma Chao, the Langya camp lost a lot and needed to recover its combat effectiveness. The soldiers in the army also suffered great losses, and the prisoners needed to be reorganized to form combat effectiveness. "


    "Fourth, according to Xu Shangshu, when the political center moved from Yuyang county to Chang''an, all the affairs were in order for the time being, but not well coordinated. Here, too, you need the Lord''s attention. "


    Li Ru looked wise and said: "the above four points are the consideration of humble position. After another two or three months, it will be cool when the troops are sent out, and when the weather is good, they will take Hongnong County in one go. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s do that."


    Zhang Xiu also agrees with Li Ru''s suggestion. Now, in July, it is getting more and more inflamed.


    It''s hard to March and fight.


    Li Ru continued: "as the saying goes, food and grass go first before troops move. In terms of weapons and food, we can start planning. In addition, the situation in Hongnong county and Hanoi county must also be investigated as soon as possible. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I have arranged for Wang Yue to inquire about the news. At least before sending troops, I will definitely find out all the information."


    Li Ru said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go ahead!"


    "Here it is


    Li Ru answered and got up to leave.


    Zhang Xiu sits alone in the room, dealing with the government affairs presented."Dong! Dong


    All of a sudden, the drums are beating.


    The sound of the drum came from the gate of the general''s house. The sound of the drum was not very powerful, but it was very clear. After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows, and there was a touch of surprise on her angular face.


    This is the call for redress.


    This is the first time that Zhang Xiu met the general outside the general''s house after setting up a drum for grievances.


    Soon, some soldiers came to the hall and reported: "general, there are 63 people outside the house. Everyone is here to ask the general for redress. "


    Brush!


    The color of Zhang embroidery changes slightly.


    Sixty three families came together to redress their grievances.


    It''s not a small thing.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "everyone, please come to the hall. Ben will inquire in person."


    "Here it is


    The soldier went to inform him when he had to.


    After a while, 63 people entered the hall. After these people stood still, the light at the entrance of the hall suddenly darkened, as if there was a feeling of black clouds pressing the city.


    Sixty three people, from fat to thin, from middle-aged to elderly. One by one into the hall, saw the hall above Zhang Xiu, all cramped up.


    Who is Zhang Xiu?


    He was the one who killed Xiongnu, defeated Cao Cao, and killed Li Xi and Guo Si.


    Such people are awe inspiring.


    Although the common people entered the hall to fight for justice, they were still a little nervous when they saw Zhang Xiu. Fortunately, Dong Zhuo once lived in this hall, which is wide enough to easily accommodate more than 60 people.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu ordered the attendants to take 63 seats and put them in the hall one by one, so that all the people would sit down and not all the people in a circle would stand.


    This battle is a little scary.


    Everyone sat down and was more grateful to Zhang Xiu.


    He is worthy of being a captain of Sili school and a general of Zhennan. He is approachable and has no airs of a general.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept the crowd and took the lead in saying, "who among you can speak on behalf of everyone? It''s a waste of time to ask and explain one by one. You recommend a person to explain things. "


    As soon as the words fell, everyone''s eyes fell on the middle-aged man at the front.


    This man was dressed in coarse linen, simple clothes, no luxury, not rich family background. But he stands out in the crowd like a rooster and has his own extraordinary bearing.


    The middle-aged people are full of scholarly temperament, and they are full of poetic and scholarly spirit. After hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, the middle-aged man was not polite. He took a step forward and said, "I''ll meet general Zhang in the lower Duji."


    Zhang Xiu heard the moment, eyebrows up.


    Duki!


    This is a celebrity in history.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart moved. He was not sure whether he was Du Ji in history. He asked, "are you from Jingzhao?"


    "Yes


    Du Ji nodded.


    In Du Ji''s heart, there are some doubts. How does Zhang Xiu know that he is from Jingzhao?


    However, Du Ji didn''t talk much.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is determined to know that Du Ji in front of her is Du Ji in history.


    Du Ji was born in poverty, but his ancestors were also prominent. Du Zhou, the ancestor of Du Ji, was a cruel official in the period of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. He served as the Prime Minister of the imperial censor, and was highly respected by Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty.


    Du Yannian, the son of Du Zhou, was well versed in the law. In the period of emperor Zhao of Han Dynasty, he pacified the rebellion of Shangguan Jie and other officials, and the feudal society pacified the marquis. When Emperor Xuan of Han Dynasty was the ninth minister, he was one of the eleven meritorious officials in Qilin Pavilion of Emperor Xuan of Han Dynasty.


    In the Western Han Dynasty, there were many high-ranking officials in the Du family, and the hall was prominent.


    In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Du family gradually declined. In the Duji generation, the family was quite poor. Especially when Du Ji was young, his father remarried, and his stepmother was vicious. He treated Du Ji badly.


    Du Ji''s father died a few years later. Du Ji moved his stepmother with filial piety and had a harmonious relationship. Less than 20 years later, Du Ji was promoted to be a filial and honest man and served as a meritorious Cao of Jingzhao. During his tenure, he worked hard and made great achievements, and was finally appointed as the governor of Hanzhong Prefecture.


    After Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, Du Ji took refuge in Jingzhou.


    After Cao Cao pacified Guanzhong, Du Ji went to the north and was recommended by Xun Yu. He entered Cao Cao''s field of vision and was highly valued by Cao Cao. He served as the captain of protecting Qiang and the prefect of Xiping. He stabilized the situation in Hedong and made great contributions to Cao Cao''s pacification of Guanzhong.


    After Cao Pi became emperor, he granted Duji the title of fengleting Marquis and ordered Duji to serve as a minister.


    This is an able Minister of local governance.


    It can protect the territory and the people.

 Chapter 320

    Zhang Xiu is familiar with the situation of the Three Kingdoms and knows Du Ji. According to the normal historical track, Du Ji should take refuge in Jingzhou. But now, Du Ji appears in Chang''an.


    Obviously, it was Zhang Xiu who stabilized the situation in Chang''an, and Du Ji returned to Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu was determined, looked at Du Ji''s eyes with a trace of appreciation, and asked: "you are familiar with the situation, then you say, why do these more than 60 households of people come to beat the drum to complain?"


    "Yes, I do!"


    Du Ji arched his hand to answer, but he was a little eccentric.


    It seems that Zhang Xiu knows him.


    Especially other say his name and native place, he found that Zhang Xiu look at his eyes, there seems to be praise.


    This makes Du Ji confused.


    Du Ji couldn''t understand it and didn''t have time to think about it. He took a deep breath and sorted out his mind. Then he said, "report back to General Zhang. There are two reasons why these 62 families beat drums and complain."


    In addition to Du Ji, there were 62 people, one person and one household, totally 62 households.


    "First, homelessness!"


    "Second, there is no money at home!"


    Du Ji said two reasons.


    Zhang Xiuting has a slight frown in her ear. Now under the rule of Chang''an, how can anyone be homeless? How can we have no money at home.


    You should know that after Zhang Xiu led his troops into Chang''an, he recruited a large number of people to dig ditches and build walls. As long as the people worked hard, they could earn money and support their families.


    Although not rich, but at least not hungry.


    Du Ji said slowly: "the reason why they are homeless is that hospitals are being built in Chang''an city. The construction of the hospital covers an area of about 150 mu. "


    "Of these 150 mu, there are 62 families."


    "At first, the government negotiated with the people to give 62 families compensation money and help them build new houses. It''s just the promise of the government, so all 62 households have agreed. "


    "At that time, it was considered that Zhang Zhongjing, a miracle doctor, wanted to build a hospital in Chang''an, which was beneficial to the country and the people. It was a great good thing. Therefore, 62 families of people, even if they did not get money and had no residence for the time being, moved away to facilitate the construction of the hospital."


    "I don''t know. The house has been demolished, but the money hasn''t been set aside. The building of houses has never been carried out. "


    "Today, more than 60 households live in rented houses."


    "It''s very easy for a large family to spend money like water. They are the most common people in Chang''an City, with little money left. To this day, there is no money left at home


    Du Ji sighed and said, "please judge General Zhang and return justice to the people."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu frowned.


    The demolition of the hospital, how can not give money, it is impossible to delay.


    You know, when the hospital was in Yuyang County, it had been built once. Therefore, this kind of thing should be done with ease and without any major problems.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "did you find the government?"


    Du Ji had a clear idea and replied, "report back to General Zhang. On behalf of more than 60 families, I went to Chang''an County Yamen and found Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County. I hope Cui can give me an explanation."


    "Cui county magistrate''s personality is also good. After the next inquiry, Cui county magistrate said that he had not received the money. To this end, Cui county magistrate specifically asked the above, the final result is that there is no funding down, still waiting


    Du Ji said: "at this point, the clue is broken."


    Zhang Xiu thought rotation, asked: "at the beginning, who is responsible for this?"


    "Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County, was responsible for the original occupation of land," Du said


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart and said, "this matter, I will give you a clear answer today."


    "Come and call Liu ba."


    Zhang Xiu ordered him to go down.


    Liu Ba is in charge of the household department and Zhang Xiu''s money bag. It involves the resettlement funds of more than 60 households, which will surely go through Liu BA''s hands. If Liuba does not approve, the money will not go on.


    When the soldier got the order, he went to inform him.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the people present, her tone was firm, and she said with a smile: "please rest assured, villagers, it''s your money, and you''ll get a lot of money. The conditions previously promised will not be void. "


    When the people heard the words, they all praised Zhang Xiu''s benevolence and righteousness.


    One by one, with a smile on his face.


    Chang''an used to be desolate, deserted and sparsely populated, so it didn''t cost much to live in Chang''an. But now Chang''an, as the political center under Zhang Xiu''s rule, has a large number of officials pouring in. Prices have risen a little, and even rental houses are in short supply.


    For the people, renting is certainly not cost-effective.


    They want to have their own house.


    With Zhang Xiu''s treatment, the common people are at ease. In particular, Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything about the official face, didn''t let them go back and wait, but dealt with it immediately, which satisfied the people.After a short time, Liu Ba strode into the hall.


    Seeing dozens of people sitting in the hall, Liu BA was also surprised. What happened? Liu BA''s expression is neither humble nor haughty. He arched his hand and said, "I''m a humble Liu ba. I''d like to meet my Lord."


    Zhang Xiuyan said, "Liu Ba, has the compensation for the land occupied by the hospital ever been allocated?"


    Liu Ba didn''t even think about it. He said directly, "I''ll tell my Lord that this money was allocated 15 days ago. Relevant procedures and humble posts are preserved. Because of the large amount of money, I am deeply impressed by my humble position. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you sure?"


    Liu Ba tossed the ground and said: "the humble position is guaranteed by the head on the item. If the Ministry of household doesn''t allocate funds, the humble position is willing to kill."


    Zhang xiudao said, "take your seat!"


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba sat down immediately.


    At this time, Liu Ba understood that there must be something wrong with the money, so he made trouble in front of Zhang Xiu.


    After Liu Ba sat down, all the people''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. The money was allocated in 15 days. Obviously, it was allocated, but the people below did not receive it.


    What should we do?


    The hearts of the common people became nervous.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and once again said, "come on, call Li Ru to see you."


    The soldier went to inform again.


    Li Rucai had come to the general''s mansion before. Shortly after he left, the soldiers went to inform him. It wasn''t long. Li Ru strode into the hall, bowed to Zhang Xiu, and said, "humble Li Ru, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t waste time either. She said that the hospital occupied an area, but the people didn''t receive the money. She said, "you are in charge of the criminal department. With the help of Liu Ba, I will give you half a day to find out where the money went wrong."


    Li Ru said: "Lord, don''t worry. You can find out the result in one hour at most."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go ahead, I will wait for your news."


    "Here it is


    Li Ru and Liu Baqi should go down together.


    Two people didn''t delay time, turn round to leave.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the people in the hall and said again, "please wait another hour. After an hour, there will be results."


    "The general is wise!"


    All the people are grateful for Zhang Xiu''s vigorous and resolute action.


    Du Ji saw Zhang Xiu''s action in his eyes. He had heard about Zhang Xiu''s countless deeds before, but he had never seen her before. Now he is admiring her for her resolute, resolute, and not shirking responsibility at all.


    Can be based on one side.


    It''s not without a reason.


    Zhang Xiu was interested in Du Ji and asked, "Du Ji, are you one of the more than 60 families?"


    "No!"


    Du Ji shook his head and said slowly, "report back to General Zhang. Although I''m from Jingzhao, when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, he went south to Jingzhou to take refuge and never lived in Chang''an."


    "After general Zhang calmed down Chang''an, he went north to Chang''an and lived there."


    "It happened that I once served as a hero of Jingzhao. Many villagers knew me, so they found me and hoped I could help them. I went to the magistrate of Chang''an County several times, and the other party was very cooperative. I kept asking, but I didn''t get a result. "


    Du Ji said: "helpless, the next just with the people to ring the drum."


    Zhang Xiu nodded. The reason why Du Ji moved northward ahead of time was that youfufeng and Jingzhao areas recovered their stability ahead of time.


    This is the return of Du Ji.

 Chapter 321

    Du Ji''s treatment was completely flawless. He didn''t make a big deal at the beginning. Instead, he asked Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County for several times. After no result, he finally went to Zhang Xiu''s mansion to beat the drum and complain.


    This is extremely normal operation.


    Zhang Xiu and Du Ji have a chat, the atmosphere is harmonious.


    Du Ji''s bearing is neither humble nor overbearing. But when Zhang Xiu asked, he didn''t rush to answer. This kind of dialogue convinced all the people and made them admire Du Ji.


    Mr. Du!


    Zhang Xiu turned around and asked, "Du Ji, after you return to Chang''an, you have been in contact with the ordinary people at the bottom. What do you think Chang''an lacks most? "


    Du Ji said: "what is lacking most is assessment!"


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Du Ji''s eyes became sharp gradually, his eyes were bright, and he said: "I have heard people say that after general Zhang arrived in Chang''an, he once punished dozens of soldiers at one time."


    "The arrogant soldiers and valiant generals in the army have disappeared since then, and there is no longer the habit of invading the people."


    "Generals in the army, they are bound."


    "But what about civil servants?"


    "Many of the civil servants who followed General Zhang, as well as the officials who had just been subordinated to General Zhang and were soon appointed to official posts, gained power with one move, and gradually developed inflationary emotions."


    "To neglect government affairs."


    Du Ji said: "as for the compensation for the land occupation of the hospital this time, if it goes well, the process can be completed in three days at most. But up to now, it has been delayed for more than ten days, and we still don''t know the result. "


    "It''s amazing!"


    "General Zhang''s recruitment of talented people is indeed a great effort, which has steadily enriched the officials in Chang''an. It''s a good thing to be meritorious, but officials need not only talent, but also morality. "


    "A good official is one who has both ability and political integrity."


    "The more capable a person is, the greater the harm he will do if his mind is crooked and his heart is broken."


    "It is a good thing to enrich local officials and recruit talents. However, there is a lack of a mechanism for assessing deterrence and a sharp sword for deterring officials. Many people forget their original intention when they gain power. "


    "This is the most fundamental problem," said Du


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    Du Ji''s words are to the point.


    Zhang Xiu beat the soldiers in the army at the beginning. Since then, the military discipline has changed greatly, and the soldiers in the army have no action to harm the people.


    As for civil servants, there was no time.


    In other words, the Ministry of punishment under Li Ru''s charge has not encountered any problems, so it is impossible to find something to investigate. Moreover, there are county magistrates in all places, and their own affairs are handled by all places.


    Now the situation is not obvious for the time being, and the problem has not yet broken out.


    These are hidden dangers.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "your words are very good. I will adopt them."


    Du Ji said: "General Zhang''s praise."


    When they talked, though the people around them didn''t understand, they listened with interest. Unconsciously, the passage of time, the blink of an eye passed more than half an hour.


    An hour away from Li Ru is coming.


    At this time, there was a discussion.


    Some people began to discuss in a low voice, with a nervous look on their faces. After all, it involves the money they need to settle down and the house they live in. This is a major event to settle down and start a business.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    Li Ru and Liu Ba are here.


    They entered together, followed by two soldiers, escorting an official.


    Li Ru and Liu Ba stood still and saluted.


    Once swept back to Li Xiu''s body, he asked: "can you be caught by Zhang Xun''s eyes?"


    Li Ru replied, "please tell me, everything has been found out. The land occupation fund allocated by the Ministry of household affairs is distributed to Jing Zhaoyin Xiayan, but all the land occupation fund is misappropriated by Xiayan. "


    "Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County, asked Xia Yan several times, but he was prevaricated by Xia Yan for various reasons."


    "There are two aspects to Cheyenne''s misappropriation."


    "First, Cheyenne is addicted to gambling and brings a lot of money into and out of casinos. Every time, he lost everything. "


    "Second, Cheyenne is lustful. She goes in and out of brothels with money and spends money like dirt."


    "In a short period of time, all the compensation for land occupation has been misappropriated. After the compensation for the land occupation was misappropriated, Xia Yan wanted to earn it back through gambling in order to raise enough money and even misappropriate the money of Jing Zhaoyin''s house. "


    "In the end, it''s all lost."


    Li Ru also had a cool look in his eyes, and said: "after Xia Yan lost all his money, he began to panic. He had hoped to use his power to order the casinos to pay back the money. But the casinos are set up by Chang''an''s elite families. Xiayan has no choice but to settle down. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhang Xiu was very angry.This Cheyenne is simply heartless and in vain.


    Li Ru continued: "what''s more shocking is that although Xia Yan lost the compensation for land occupation and Jing Zhaoyin''s money, in fact, he has countless money in his family."


    "It''s all about bribery."


    "During his short time as Jing Zhaoyin in Xia Yan, he seized countless benefits."


    "If he wants to level off the land occupation, he can make up for it as long as he takes out his family wealth. But Cheyenne is not willing, so the matter of land occupation is delayed again and again. "


    Li Ru said: "in addition to Xia Yan, there are also problems with many officials in the jingzhaoyin government. They have taken the humble posts together. Now, the rest of the officials are in jail, waiting to be dealt with. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu ordered: "check the Xia family, in addition, get rid of Xia Yan''s official position, now drag it out, and ask for the execution on the spot."


    "Here it is


    Li Ru bowed his hand to answer the question.


    "No, general Zhang, you can''t kill me. I''ve come to you. Although I made mistakes, I can correct them. You killed me. Who dares to come to you


    Cheyenne spoke out loud.


    "Shut up


    Zhang Xiu gave a big drink.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu, with sharp eyes, said: "even if you are talented, I don''t need you. You are greedy and addicted to gambling. As an official, you should not set an example or seek welfare for the people, but be greedy for money and lust. You should be killed! "


    "If we don''t kill, it''s not enough to calm the people''s anger."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, ordered a way: "come person, drag down to chop for me!"


    The soldier went out with Cheyenne in his hand.


    "No, don''t kill me!"


    Cheyenne spoke loudly, with a look of fear on her face.


    He never thought that he would be executed as soon as he started to be greedy for ink. Xiayan was dragged out of the hall, and soon there was a scream. The people knew that Xiayan had been killed.


    A happy look appeared on each face, and at the same time, they all looked at Zhang Xiu.


    Cheyenne was killed, but things have to be dealt with. If their compensation for land occupation is not solved, things will not be finished.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the common people and said: "the compensation for land occupation of the villagers is allocated by the household department and settled directly to all the common people. In addition, the Ministry of household will take the lead in finding Li Yan from the Ministry of work and allocating craftsmen to build houses for the people as soon as possible. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba immediately responded.


    Liu Ba has no opinion about reallocating money. Because after allocating the money again, after checking the house of Cheyenne, the money lost will make up for it.


    Liu Ba looked solemn and solemnly said, "please don''t worry, my Lord. When you return to the government, you will deal with it immediately. Within today, we will handle the matter properly. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at all the people and said, "are the villagers satisfied with the result?"


    "Satisfied! Very satisfied


    On the faces of the common people, they just smile.


    Their affairs have been solved, one by one relieved, and finally relaxed.


    Zhang Xiu waved Li Ru and Liu Ba to keep busy, and let the people leave, but left Du Ji alone. When Zhang Xiu said that she wanted to leave Du Ji, the common people looked at her and there was a worried look in her eyes.


    It seems that she is worried about Zhang Xiu''s handling of Du Ji.


    Zhang xiuxin, like a mirror, saw the worries of the people, and said with a smile: "don''t worry about your own affairs. Du Ji has talent. He was going to use him as an official, so he won''t be embarrassed."

 Chapter 322

    After Zhang Xiu''s words were spoken, the people left together.


    The people were also happy for Du Ji.


    Originally, Du Ji had been an official in Jingzhao area. Only when Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, which caused war, Du Ji had to leave Guanzhong and seek refuge in Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Du Ji, who had a history as an official, and even once ruled a county. His ability was enough. Moreover, Du Ji was from Guanzhong. He was an official in Jingzhao and was familiar with the situation, which was also conducive to the governance of Jingzhao.


    Especially when Du Ji saw the problem, he would follow this direction.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "Du Ji, I''m short of talents like you. Do you have talent, ability and vision, and are you willing to work for us? "


    Du Ji hears Zhang Xiu''s words, also is bang heart.


    He is willing to become an official.


    Du Ji Baoquan way: "Du Ji, willing to work for general Zhang." At this point, Du Ji lifted his robe, knelt down on one knee, and said solemnly: "Du Ji, meet the Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you Du Ji answers.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "when Xia Yan is killed, the post of Jing Zhao Yin is vacant. You immediately assume the post of Jing Zhao Yin and take charge of the governance of Jing Zhao area. Now the whole house of Jingzhao is rotten, and the officials are in a mess. Ben would have hoped that you could get things right quickly. "


    Du Ji boxing way: "humble position will not lose the trust of the Lord."


    At the moment, Du Ji was also excited. Although he has the intention to work for Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t expect to be jingzhaoyin. After all, jingzhaoyin is equal to the prefect of a county, and the power of jingzhaoyin is far more than the ordinary prefect of a county.


    This is the political center of Zhang Xiu.


    But now, Zhang Xiu has given him enough power.


    This is his chance.


    Believing that Du Ji was competent, Zhang Xiu immediately wrote a letter of appointment, handed it to Du Ji, and said, "take this general''s order and go to Xu Shu. He will handle all the procedures for you. Xu Shu''s office is in the general''s mansion. "


    Today, Zhang Xiu has the right to start her own family.


    In addition, his house used to be Dong Zhuo''s house, covering a large area. There is a special office for the officials of the six ministries, which is where the office of the six ministries is located.


    Du Ji takes Zhang Xiu''s order and leaves the hall to find Xu Shu.


    Zhang Xiu was relieved when she finished dealing with the matter. However, thinking of the root rotten in Jingzhao area, Zhang Xiu is not at ease. This is true in Jingzhao area. What about the right Fufeng?


    Even Nanyang County?


    Zhang Xiu sent someone to call Wang Yue and told him about the corruption of Jing Zhaoyin and Xia Yan. She said, "Wang Yue, Jing Zhaoyin''s house is in a mess, and so are other counties and counties. You mobilize the people of the royal guards to make a careful investigation of the counties. If there are people who are corrupt and do harm to the people, immediately report them to the Ministry of punishment for disposal. "


    "I''ll do it


    When Wang Yue heard this, he looked very happy.


    The former royal guards were only responsible for Zhang Xiu''s intelligence and information. Now we have to supervise all officials, which means we have another right.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go down!"


    "Here it is


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu relaxed. He continued to deal with government affairs, but time went by and it was evening. Zhang Xiu came back from a long journey, but she was a little hungry.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    "General, please go to the backyard for dinner


    "I see."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He felt his stomach, which was a little shriveled, and got up to go back to the hospital. When she comes to Huang Yueying''s yard, Zhang Xiu looks around, but sees a table of dishes in the pavilion of the yard.


    There are Cai''s, Huang Yueying''s and Cao Jie''s. The three women get along well.


    Zhang Xiu is glad to see this scene.


    He didn''t like the fire in the backyard and wanted two women to be nice. After Zhang Xiu saw her mother-in-law Cai, Huang Yueying and Cao Jie also immediately saluted Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s all from my own family. Don''t be polite."


    He directly sat down, when Zhang Xiu sat down, saw the dishes on the table, looked a little surprised. Because he saw the pig''s hoof soup, the color of the soup was milky white, which made people have a good appetite.


    In addition, there are some dishes made from pork.


    This made Zhang Xiu a little surprised.


    Although pork is one of the three animals, in fact, it doesn''t run well in ordinary people''s homes. In this era, pork was raised in captivity.


    The smell of pig is very strong, and the smell is very bad.


    The reason is that Zhang Xiu knows that pigs in this era are not castrated, so the real rich people do not eat pork, but eat mutton and beef.


    Of course, beef is rare.


    After all, farming cattle are related to people''s livelihood. If we really want to slaughter them, we have to wait for them to die of old age or die of illness.More, it''s mutton.


    Zhang Xiu''s surprise also fell into Huang Yueying''s eyes.


    Huang Yueying''s face, with a faint smile, said with a smile: "husband, this is the pork that sister Cao Jie specially asked the cook to cook. People outside say that the pork tastes great, but our pork doesn''t taste at all."


    "Try it. It''s delicious."


    "Especially the soup made from the pig''s hoof is delicious, and it''s an excellent delicacy."


    With a smile on her face, Huang Yueying said, "during this period of time, I often drink crucian carp soup and pig''s hoof soup. I feel that my bones are much better and my baby grows very fast."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    He doesn''t worry about pork and pig''s feet. After all, he knows. After sitting down, Zhang Xiu picked up chopsticks, picked up a pig''s hoof and tasted it carefully.


    When the pig''s feet enter the mouth, the taste of soft glutinous is diffused, especially when the pig''s feet are stewed so that the bones are almost separated from the meat. It''s extremely soft and melts as soon as you sip it. It''s hard to forget the taste.


    In later generations, Zhang Xiu ate a lot.


    After crossing back, it was the first time I had such stewed pig''s hoof soup. I felt comfortable all over. Today''s meat, mostly chicken, duck, fish, beef and mutton.


    No matter what it is, it doesn''t taste like pig''s hoof.


    Huang Yueying looked in her eyes with a look of hope and asked, "husband, how are you?"


    "Good, delicious!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, and her eyes were full of praise.


    Huang Yueying gave Zhang Xiu another piece of streaky pork. The streaky pork used Cornus and other seasonings, and the taste was very rich. She said with a smile: "husband, try it. It''s different from pig''s hoof, and it''s quite good."


    Zhang Xiu eat to the mouth, the entrance is soft, taste mixed with a little spicy, but fragrance overflowing, very comfortable.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words.


    He looked at Cao Jie with a look of approval. The pork was very good.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, eat it all!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s words, everyone began to eat without any delay. A table of dishes, most of them are made of pork, the taste is very comfortable.


    Most of the dishes on the table went into Zhang Xiu''s stomach. Today, although Zhang Xiu is in his early twenties, his strength is still improving slowly. Such a situation, Zhang Xiu is not clear why, can only be attributed to the reason through.


    Anyway, it''s good for Zhang Xiu.


    After the meal, Zhang Xiu made a full break, looked at Cao Jie and asked, "our pork has no smell of mutton. How do we make it?"


    Cao Jie replied: "so that my husband can know that the pork was made by my cook. He was born as a butcher in his early years. He slaughtered pigs and sheep all the year round. He found that castrated pigs were more delicious when they grew up, without smell of mutton and Sao. When I came from Xudu, I took him with me. When I came to Yuyang County, he lived outside the government. He made his own living and prepared meat for me. "


    Zhang xiumou son turns, command a way: "you arrange a person to inform, call him to come to general mansion."


    Cao Jie said: "he is in the general''s house!"


    Because of the preparation of dishes, Cao Jie''s cook is also busy in the general''s house. After all, these dishes are cooked by the cooks brought by Cao Jie.


    Zhang Xiu had an expectant look on her face and said, "then call him."


    "Yes


    Cao Jie immediately called to the servant girl, let the servant girl to convey the order.

 Chapter 323

    Huang Yueying said, "my husband, the cook brought by my sister, cooked a lot of delicious food. If you call him here, you should give him a good reward. Don''t scare people. "


    She has a good impression of Cao Jie and regards Cao Jie as her sister.


    So, open your mouth.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "the reward is to reward, not only to reward, but also to do official work for him."


    "Ah


    Huang Yueying and Cao Jie screamed out.


    Even Cai''s face showed a look of astonishment.


    Isn''t it ridiculous to be an official for a cook?


    Cai always does not interfere in Zhang Xiu''s affairs, but at this time, he can''t help but remind: "is it too much for a good son-in-law to cook for a cook who kills pigs?"


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s not too much. It''s a very normal thing."


    Cai opened his mouth, but when he got to his mouth, he immediately swallowed it back. This is Zhang Xiu''s own decision. Although she is Zhang Xiu''s mother-in-law, she can''t interfere too much.


    Men''s home.


    It''s a man''s decision.


    Huang Yueying saw that her mother said it was useless and didn''t persuade her too much.


    Cao Jie, with a worried look on his face, solemnly said, "my husband, I agree with the old lady. Is it too much to reward him as an official? After all, he''s just a cook. He doesn''t have much merit. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I can''t say too much, that''s not too much. In today''s world, people have no food or meat to eat. Even if the days are better, it''s hard to eat meat. "


    "After all, the smell of pork is very bad."


    "But if such tasteless pork is popular in Guanzhong, then countless people in Guanzhong can eat it. There is a huge physical gap between a person who eats meat and a person who does not. "


    "What''s more, soldiers in the army also need meat. Just relying on the rest of the chicken, duck, fish and other meat can not meet the needs of soldiers. Only pork can satisfy soldiers. "


    Zhang Xiu has a look of expectation in her eyes.


    For ordinary people, meat and oil are very important.


    In mutton and beef, there is no fat of pork, but it is impossible for free raised pork to have much fat. Only after castration, the meat is fat and can provide enough fat and oil.


    This can satisfy the soldiers in the army.


    Huang Yueying was confused. He didn''t know much about it and didn''t want to interfere.


    Cao Jie is knowledgeable. After listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, she said with admiration: "what your husband said is very true, and it''s easy to popularize. The husband only needs a command, the superior and the inferior, can promote in a large area. Especially after castration, the pork is delicious. "


    "That''s true," said Zhang Xiu


    Cao Jie said no more.


    Zhang Xiu can''t interfere in politics. She can''t arrange these things at will.


    After a short time, a middle-aged man with greasy clothes, round figure and medium build came in. He has a big stomach. When he walks, the meat on his stomach and face trembles, just like Maitreya. He is very optimistic.


    His name is Zhou Fu.


    He was a member of Cao Jie''s family. In his early years, he was a butcher. Later, he became a cook. He has always been a member of Cao Jie''s courtyard.


    Cao Jie came to Nanyang County, so did Zhou Fu.


    Zhou Fu heard that Zhang Xiu was summoned by the maid. For a moment, he was a little frightened. He is an ordinary cook. He has never seen anything in the world or any big man. He is worried about his mistakes.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, Zhou Fu pushed the golden mountain down to the jade pillar and knelt down directly on the ground, saying: "villain Zhou Fu, I''ve seen the general."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk."


    Zhou Fu shook his head and said, "the grassroots dare not get up. What instructions does the general have?"


    Zhang Xiu saw Zhou Fujin''s small and cautious appearance, knew that Zhou Fu was afraid, and said in a deep voice: "I will let you up, you will be up. There''s gold under the man''s knees. Kneeling on the ground, kneeling on the sky, kneeling on the ground, and kneeling on the parents, is it very comfortable to kneel on the ground? "


    "Yes, villains listen to the general."


    Zhou Fu stood up and continued to ask, "I don''t know general Zhang summoned villains. What''s the matter?"


    At this time, he was very determined.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to deal with his mind. It seems that he didn''t commit a crime.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhou Fu, if you can feed a castrated pig, it proves that you know how to Castrate a pig. Ben will ask you, how many percent of the piglets you castrate will survive? "


    This era, not later generations.


    After castration, piglets, whether boars or sows, have a great probability of death.


    This is extremely normal.


    When Zhou Fu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he opened his eyes and looked shocked. He said, "General Zhang, do you understand this?"


    Zhou Fu didn''t say anything about the castration of pigs.


    It''s not worth promoting. After all, castration is not a glorious thing.Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu knew.


    At this moment, even Huang Yueying, Cao Jie and Cai Shi were confused.


    They always eat ready-made food and don''t know about pigs. Zhang Xiu has never been involved in, a word, asked the key point, and it seems to be very understanding.


    This surprised the three.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this will know some, but you are the real expert."


    Zhou Fu said: "General Zhang, I''m wrong. In a word, you say that you are an expert. To be honest with general Zhang, the villain has castrated many piglets over the years. There is no 90% survival rate, but there is also more than 80% survival rate. "


    Zhang xiudao: "seriously?"


    Zhou Fu threw a voice: "villains dare not deceive General Zhang."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    It''s a great joy.


    To have a survival rate of about 90% is a very high technology in this era. Nowadays, most of the pork on the market is wild boar. It tastes bad and few people eat it.


    But with Zhou Fu, Zhang Xiu believes that this situation will be improved. Even if this matter is handled well, it will be an economic growth point and a source of income for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was determined and asked, "Zhou Fu, would you like to be an official?"


    "Ah


    When Zhou Fu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his body trembled.


    A moment later, I came back to myself.


    Zhou Fu''s head was shaking like a rattle, and he even said, "general, if you don''t know one of the big characters, you can''t even write your own name, you will kill pigs, and then raise some pigs. Don''t you lose your face by making me an official? No, it doesn''t work. "


    Zhang Xiu laughs, but Zhou Fu is a man of self-knowledge.


    That''s a good guy!


    Zhang Fu said: "it''s not for you to be a scholar, it''s not for you to be a soldier. Your only job is to be in charge of castration and pig raising. Would you like to do that? "


    "Can you be an official?"


    Zhou Fu''s eyes widened, with an incredible look.


    It''s the first time for him to hear that the castration and pig raising can be officials, which is beyond his imagination. Zhou Fu still didn''t believe it. He looked at Cao Jie and asked.


    Cao nodded, indicating that Zhou Fu could agree. After all, it was Zhou Fu''s chance.


    Zhou Fu got Cao Jie''s approval, and his heart settled down.


    Zhang Xiu saw Zhou Fu''s manner, but did not go deep into it. She continued with a smile: "as long as your pigs are well raised, and there is no smell of mutton and fishy smell, you can be an official. Moreover, it is not impossible to be a minor official, to be a major official, and to be a wife and son in the future. "


    "Gudong!"


    When Zhou Fu heard this, he gulped down his saliva.


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes.


    If you can really be an official, you can also be a wife and a son, that''s the best.


    Zhou Fu clenched his teeth and said, "general, villains are willing, and a hundred villains are willing. Please don''t worry, general. The villain is good at raising pigs. Up to half a year, the villain can make the pig grow fat and fat, and can be slaughtered. "

 Chapter 324

    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of praise, and said: "you have the ability. I promise you to be a general. What do you think?"


    "The villain will!"


    Zhou Fu didn''t even think about it. He answered directly.


    As a person who doesn''t know big words, it''s his blessing to be a partial general, but it can be said that his ancestors are smoking. Put it on him, it''s something I dare not even think about.


    Unexpectedly, he became an official.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she asked, "did you come to Chang''an and raise pigs?"


    "Yes


    When Zhou Fu thought of Zhang Xiu''s esteem, he held his head high and said, "when I was in Yuyang County, I raised two pigs, each of which had more than 150 Jin."


    "I thought at that time, it''s a pity to kill him."


    "So when we moved to Chang''an, the two pigs raised by the villain were all loaded in prison cars and transported to Chang''an."


    Zhou Fu said: "I killed a pig a few days ago. Now there is a pig in Lilliputian''s house."


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh and asked, "from Yuyang county to Chang''an, you are still a talented person. For this reason, are you often ridiculed and gossiped? "


    Zhou Fu felt embarrassed when he heard the speech.


    It''s certain to be gossiped, but he''s used to it all these years. He doesn''t care about other people''s gossip.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how much of the pork you killed before is left?"


    "It''s gone!"


    Zhou Fu shook his head and said, "it''s June now. It''s hot and the meat is not stored long. Once it''s put away for a long time, it''s easy to break. So after killing the pig, the villain on the one hand sent some old things and on the other hand sent them to his family. "


    "Today, we consume a lot of pork every day."


    "The villain originally planned to kill the pig when he went back today. After the villain arrived in Chang''an, he bought five piglets, all of which have been castrated. None of them lost. They all survived. "


    Zhou Fu confidently said: "every other half year or so, you can eat fresh pork again."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, you should go back to kill pigs now. It will be of great use to clean up the pork and send it to the general''s house. "


    "Yes


    Zhou Fu responded with a smile.


    He was very happy to think that he was a butcher and cook, and that he was respected.


    Most of all, it has been recognized.


    Zhou Fu''s pigs have been castrated, but even so, no one recognized him. Even he sells pork, but not many people buy it. In these days, it''s the poor who eat pork. After all, pork is not elegant, and it''s too smelly.


    Unexpectedly, he got Zhang Xiu''s approval, the joy in the heart can be imagined.


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "The villain is leaving!"


    Zhou Fu bowed and bowed, then turned back. But when he came to the gate, suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s voice came from behind: "wait a minute!"


    Hearing this, Zhou Fu turned quickly.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu, Zhou Fu''s face was still a little uneasy.


    Are you going to change your mind?


    Zhou Fu now some like in the cloud, always feel insecure. After all, he is a butcher who kills pigs and a cook who can order dishes. It''s not suitable for him to be an official.


    Zhou Fu looked at Zhang Xiu with a worried look.


    Zhang Xiu asked her servant girl to go to Huang Yueying''s study and get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. She immediately wrote an appointment and handed it to Zhou Fu: "go to Xu Shu and let him register and put your official position into practice."


    "Yes, general Xie."


    Zhou Fu''s heart hanging in mid air was completely steadfast.


    At this moment, Zhou Fu was full of joy.


    Zhou Fu, with Zhang Xiu''s letter of appointment, soon came to the office where Xu Shu''s official department was located. Zhou Fu was a cook in his family. He often went to and from the general''s house. Although he was a little timid in the face of Zhang Xiu, he was full of energy when he went outside the official department.


    Now, he is also an official.


    Even if Zhou Fu''s clothes are greasy and even obese, he has no inferiority complex. On the contrary, he is happy. After Zhou Fu knocked on the door, he entered the hall and saw Xu Shu.


    He had no fear in front of Xu Shu. After all, he had sent meals to Xu Shu several times, and he had known Xu Shu for a long time.


    Zhou Fu saluted and said, "Xu Shangshu, I''m here at the command of General Zhang. This is general Zhang''s order. Please register and go through the process. "


    With that, Zhou Fu handed the letter of appointment written by Zhang Xiu.


    Xu Shu took it over and took a look. He was suddenly scorched by thunder, and his face was full of surprise. He looked up at Zhou Fu and asked, "are you related to General Zhang?"


    "No!"


    Zhou Fu replied, shaking his head.


    He is an ordinary cook, no background, not a relative of Zhang Xiu. If he is really a relative of Zhang Xiu, he can''t be a cook.Xu Shu asked again: "do you have the grace of saving lives for general Zhang?"


    "No!"


    Zhou Fu replied again.


    At this moment, Zhou Fu was a little confused. Did Xu Shu not pass?


    Thinking of this, Zhou Fu solemnly said, "Xu Shangshu, we also know each other. Anyway, I''ve been to the Ministry several times. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don''t ask about it. It makes me feel bad. "


    Xu Shu asked two questions in succession, but he was eccentric.


    He didn''t understand why Zhang Xiu did it for Zhou Fuguan? In particular, Zhang Xiu''s appointment was a bit strange. He appointed Zhou Fu as a partial general to be responsible for the castration of piglets and the feeding of fattening pigs, which shocked Xu Shu even more.


    What kind of general is this?


    Is that general pig?


    Xu Shu is a scholar with the character of a scholar. Even though he knew that it was Zhang Xiu''s order, he didn''t plan to arrange it directly, because if he didn''t understand the matter, he would not agree.


    Although, he is Zhang Xiu''s minister.


    But there is something wrong with the Lord. He must put it forward. Zhang Xiu can''t be allowed to act recklessly.


    Xu Shu took a deep breath. He had a plan in his heart, so he said, "Zhou Fu, please wait here for a while. I''ll go to see my Lord and ask about his arrangement. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhou Fu agreed directly.


    In his heart, he began to feel uneasy again. Zhang Xiu appointed him as a partial general, and Zhou Fu was very happy. However, as a butcher and cook, Zhou Fu didn''t know a big word, but in fact, he also knew how to observe words and colors, and knew more about the importance of Xu Shu under Zhang Xiu''s command. Xu Shu was the first person to follow Zhang Xiu.


    This is not to be provoked.


    Xu Shu took Zhang Xiu''s order and got up to walk outside the official department. But when he came out of the yard, he suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the Ministry of war and the Ministry of punishment not far away.


    The Ministry of war is dominated by Jia Xu.


    The Ministry of punishment is dominated by Li Ru.


    Both are talented and persuasive. Xu Shu thought that if he went to lobby Zhang Xiu alone, he might not be able to persuade Zhang Xiu, so he made a special trip to the Ministry of war and soon met Jia Xu.


    Today''s Ministry of war is busy with business.


    After all, there are many things to be done to approve many awards and pensions. After all the awards are approved, they will be handed over to the Ministry of accounts for the allocation of money. This is fine work and should not be sloppy.


    However, Jia Xu''s handling is quite easy. Because his affairs are mainly in the charge of the people below, but Jia Xu doesn''t have much to do.


    When Xu Shu saw Jia Xu, he didn''t procrastinate. He told Zhang Xiu about Zhou Fu''s arrangement directly, and then said, "the arrangement given by the Lord to Zhou Fu is ridiculous. When it comes to official positions, how can they be allowed to others easily? I don''t agree with that. Jia Shangshu, what do you think of this? "


    After hearing this, Jia Xu pondered over it and asked, "Xu Shangshu, you and I both know the master''s character. We have always been cautious and careful. Will this arrangement have deep meaning?"


    "Deep meaning?"


    Xu Shu was a little angry and said, "what''s the meaning? Just a butcher, cook, what qualifications as a partial general? I don''t agree with it. Since I am loyal to my Lord, I should plan for him and correct for him. Now, my Lord, I will correct my mistakes. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and thought carefully.


    Xu Shu said: "Jia Shangshu, what do you think? Don''t dawdle


    "I don''t understand why," Jia said


    Xu Shu said: "do you want to understand, I also don''t want to understand. This matter must be explained to the Lord. If this matter is not handled properly, I am not convinced. "

 Chapter 325

    Jia Xu was dumbfounded.


    He has been following Zhang Xiu for some days. He seldom sees Xu Shu angry, especially so excited.


    This is not in line with Xu Shu''s temperament.


    But if you think about it, you can understand. The reason is very simple, Zhang Xiu rose from Nanyang County, has always been wise, is a pro virtuous minister far treacherous Lord, never willful and reckless.


    This time, it was such a fool.


    That''s why Xu Shu was angry.


    After careful consideration, Jia Xu soon made a decision and said, "OK, I''ll go with you." It was Jia Xu himself who could not understand Zhang Xiu''s intention, so he was willing to go with Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu said, "Li Shangshu is very intelligent. Let''s go to find Li Shangshu again."


    "Good!"


    Jia Yu immediately responded.


    As the saying goes, the law is not responsible for the masses, and there are more people to admonish, which can also have some weight.


    Xu Shu and Jia Xu went out of the War Department yamen together and soon came to Li Ru''s punishment deployment Yamen. When Xu Shu and Jia Xu see Li Ru, Xu Shu immediately shows Li Ru Zhang Xiu''s order, and then tells Li Ru that he is ready to admonish him.


    Finally, Xu Shucai said: "Li Shangshu is under the command of the Lord, and his words are also very important. I hope Li Shangshu will go with me in this admonishment. I don''t know if Li Shangshu is willing? "


    "I''ll go


    Li Ru responded without hesitation.


    The reason why he is loyal to Zhang Xiu is that Zhang Xiu shows the bearing of the hero, and has the ability and courage to compete in the world. He followed Zhang Xiu and hoped that Zhang Xiu would achieve something instead of changing in the middle of the way.


    Li Ru said, "I''ve heard about Zhou Fu. It is said that Mrs. Cao has brought Zhou Fu. Is it because of Mrs. Cao that the Lord has given Zhou Fuguan the job now? "


    Xu Shu said in a voice: "if it is true, we should admonish the Lord. How can the great events under the Lord, especially the appointment of government affairs and officials, be arranged wantonly because of a woman? "


    Li Ru said: "it''s true, but there are specific things. In a word, I''ll talk about it when I see the Lord. "


    Xu Shu said: "it should be so!"


    Jia Xu has been pondering, but he has not figured out a clue.


    Together, they went out of the Department of punishment and soon came to Zhang Xiu''s study. Just at this time, Zhang Xiu accompanied Huang Yueying and Cao Jie in the backyard and said some interesting things.


    The attendant entered the courtyard, came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reported: "general, Jia Shangshu, Li Shangshu and Xu Shangshu, together outside the study to see."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Without delay, Zhang Xiu left the backyard and went straight to the study. At the door of the study, I saw Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru. Zhang Xiu pushed the door and took a seat with them.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you three are asking for a meeting, but what''s the matter?"


    Xu Shu took the initiative to say: "the humble three people asked to see the Lord because of Zhou Fu''s appointment."


    Zhang xiudao said, "what happened to Zhou Fu?"


    Xu Shu replied, "Zhou Fu is just an ordinary butcher and cook. How can he be an official if he doesn''t know one big word, doesn''t know the art of war and tactics, doesn''t know how to March and set up an array? "


    "In terms of statecraft, he can''t govern the local areas and deal with government affairs; in terms of martial arts strategy, he can''t understand the art of war and fight. There is no use for such a man under the Lord''s command. "


    "Therefore, regarding the appointment of Zhou Fu by the Lord, I don''t think it''s proper."


    Xu Shu is very strong at the moment, throwing a voice: "humble asked Jia Shangshu and Li Shangshu''s opinion, two people''s views and humble is the same, think this is not appropriate."


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "if the Lord wants to appoint Zhou Fu as the partial general, there must be a reasonable reason. Zhou Fu was only responsible for castrating piglets and raising pork, so he was appointed as a partial general. He also thought that his humble position was too much. "


    Li Ru said: "I''ll take a humble position!"


    The three most important people, Qi Qi, expressed their opinions and opposed the appointment of Zhou Fu as partial general.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    So that''s it.


    When Xu Shu saw Zhang Xiu''s smile, he was even more eager to say: "the Lord is the wise lord. He rewards the good and punishes the evil. Everything is well and orderly. But this time the arrangement for Zhou Fu is too capricious. Therefore, the humble official thought that the appointment of Zhou Fu was improper and left Zhou Fu in the Ministry of officials for the time being. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "there are a lot of people who can''t govern the place, and there are a lot of people who don''t know the art of war and can''t fight in terms of martial arts. Zhang Zhongjing, for example, has no command of culture and military, can''t govern local areas, can''t March and fight. But this will give zhongjinggong much more treatment than partial general. Why don''t you object? What about opposing Zhou Fu? "


    When Xu Shu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was even more excited and said, "Lord, this is obviously two different things."


    "Although Doctor Zhang does not govern the local area or fight in battle, he has made great contributions to the country by bringing back the dead and healing the wounded and making countless patients escape from the hands of Lord Yan."Xu Shu said: "in this world, there are not many people like Zhong Jinggong."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Zhou Fu has also made great contributions, because he raises pigs. In the future, the soldiers and the people under Zhang Xiu''s rule will be able to eat pork and keep fit."


    Xu Shu''s cheek couldn''t help twitching and said angrily, "Lord, how can this be confused? Pork, in particular, has a strong smell of smell, which means that ordinary people seldom eat it as a sacrifice to heaven and earth. Moreover, pig raising also costs countless human resources, and it is obviously thankless to end up being so unsavory. "


    Li Ru echoed: "my Lord, I''d like to discuss my humble position!"


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord, I also agree with Xu Shangshu''s suggestion. Since ancient times, it has been difficult for pork to be elegant. To let people eat pork is tantamount to humiliating people. "


    Looking at Qi Qi''s opponents, Zhang Xiu was still relaxed and said, "the reason why you three are against eating pork is not that pork is difficult to be elegant, but that pork has a smell of smell and fishy smell, and that pork is difficult to raise."


    "Yes


    Xu Shu three people answer together.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "but what if all this can be changed? Pork is no longer tasteful, and it''s easy to keep, and it doesn''t need any manpower and material resources. "


    "No way!"


    Xu Shu didn''t even think about it, so he immediately denied it.


    Li Ru and Jia Xu do not think Zhou Fu can solve these problems. After all, the situation of pigs is clear at a glance.


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, I will make a bet with you three. How about that?"


    Xu Shu said: "how to bet?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "tomorrow morning, the six ministers and the generals of the army will all come to the general''s residence. All the dishes that Zhou Fu will prepare are made of pork. You will know when you have a try. I''ll know if it''s OK. If you can, you will arrange Zhou Fu''s official position properly, OK


    Xu Shu did not hesitate to answer: "no problem!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She waved her hand and said, "you step back. When Yuan Zhi returns to the Ministry of official affairs, he shouts Zhou Fu back. I''ll entrust him to prepare earlier."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu directly responded.


    Immediately, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru left. After the three men came out of the yard, Jia Xu looked at Xu Shu and suddenly said, "Yuanzhi, I''m afraid we may lose this thing."


    Xu Shu said, "why?"


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord, I''ve never done anything I''m not sure about. In the past, we all thought pork was useless and smelly. But you and I all know the Lord. He is very likely to be able to solve the problem if he makes a bet. "


    Xu Shu laughed and said, "Jia Shangshu, is it important to win or lose?"


    "It doesn''t matter!"


    "If the Lord loses, then the three of us can block the Lord''s appointment to Zhou Fu. In this way, we will not let a dead man enter the officialdom. "


    "If the Lord wins, it will prove that the Lord is right. It''s good for the country and the people. It''s good for the Lord. Although I lost, to put it another way, I won because it was good for the Lord


    Xu Shu said confidently, "it doesn''t matter to me."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw. He couldn''t help laughing and exclaimed: "I really underestimated you, Xu Shangshu. This time, the plan is really watertight."


    Xu Shu said: "Jia Shangshu is wrong."


    Li Ru said, "I''ll wait and see what the Lord and Zhou Fu can do."


    Jia Xu and Xu Shu also nodded.


    In fact, they all have expectations.

 Chapter 326

    Zhou Fu had been waiting in the Ministry of official affairs. The longer he waited, the more restless he was. He was familiar with the general''s house. Because of his familiarity, he knew that Xu Shu was very powerful.


    If Xu Shu rejects Zhang Xiu''s appointment, what should he do?


    For Zhou Fu, if he can''t be a partial general, he will be happy if he rejects it in a word. But now the situation is that he doesn''t know anything and is full of wishful thinking.


    As a person who doesn''t know a big word, being an official is looking up.


    Especially the butchers.


    Is it possible for a butcher to be an official?


    But here in Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu gave him hope, let him see the opportunity to be an official. It turns out that a cook like him, who was born as a butcher, also had a chance.


    In Zhou Fu''s heart, time passed by. Zhou Fu couldn''t bear the suffering. Sometimes he paced back and forth, sometimes he looked at the door, sometimes he sat down and sighed


    He''s never been so anxious in his life.


    Because there are too many expectations.


    "Step on it! Step on


    The sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the yard.


    Zhou Fu''s eyes were full of expectation when he looked at the gate of the courtyard. The next moment, Xu Shu''s figure came into Zhou Fu''s eyes. Zhou Fu stood up and said, "Xu Shangshu, what does general Zhang say? What''s the situation?"


    Xu Shu said with a smile, "my Lord, please go to the study. I have something to tell you."


    "Good!"


    Zhou Fu should go down immediately.


    However, he stopped for a moment before leaving. Originally, he stopped to ask Xu Shu about his official position. However, Xu Shu did not say much. Zhou Fu could only lift his feet and go out.


    At this moment, Zhou Fu''s feet seemed to be filled with lead, as if they were heavy. When Zhou Fu walked out of the yard, his face completely collapsed, as if he had lost his energy and became listless.


    It is too much hope, too much disappointment.


    "Alas..."


    Zhou Fu sighed and rubbed his sour face.


    In Zhou Fu''s opinion, Xu Shu didn''t deal with his official duties immediately, so it was impossible for him to become an official again. Now Zhang Xiu asked him to go, just to appease him.


    Zhou Fu''s wishful thinking soon came to Zhang Xiu''s study yard.


    Standing at the gate of the courtyard, Zhou Fu suddenly laughed at himself and murmured, "Zhou Fu, Zhou Fu, you are a butcher and cook, and you still want to be an official. What a delusion. Do what you need to do. Don''t be paranoid. "


    He took a deep breath and adjusted his mind.


    At least, it can''t be revealed.


    Zhou Fu quickly regained his old optimism, stepped into the yard, came outside the study, knocked on the door and said, "general, I''m Zhou Fu."


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu''s voice came from the room.


    Zhou Fu pushed open the door and stepped into the room. When he entered the room, he bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu and said, "I''ll see General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush, and said to the point: "the appointment of you as a partial general is blocked by Xu Shu. Because of Xu Shu''s refutation, I didn''t register your official position immediately today. "


    Zhou Fu said: "villains understand, villains can understand."


    It was hard for Zhou''s eyes to hide his loss. After all, he lost the chance to soar. For Zhou Fu, if there is no accident in his life, he is a butcher and a cook.


    Live like this for the rest of your life.


    However, Zhang Xiu gave him hope.


    Now he failed, even if he reluctantly picked up his spirits, he was still lost.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhou Fu''s appearance in her eyes and said with a smile: "look at your advice, it''s just that you don''t handle your official post today. Xu Shu thinks it''s unreasonable because you don''t have the merit to serve the country and the people. "


    "The reason is that he doesn''t understand that the pork you raise is tasteless."


    "For this, Ben will bet with Xu Shu."


    "Tomorrow morning, you will prepare a pork banquet in your house. Let my six ministers and generals taste it and see if they have any flavor."


    "As long as you are satisfied with them tomorrow, you can''t pick a thorn. Then you are partial to the position of general. Xu Shu will handle it tomorrow. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m going to call you, but I''m worried that you have some ideas, so you don''t have to think too much. When you go back, get what you should be prepared earlier. Don''t kill the pigs this afternoon. Go to bed early in the evening. Get up early tomorrow. After killing the pigs, wash the pork and bring it to the government for early preparation. Do you understand? "


    "I understand!"


    Zhou Fu answered aloud.


    At this moment, Zhou Fu''s face is full of hope and fighting spirit.


    Previously, he thought it was over.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu made a bet with Xu Shu for him. Zhang xiuneng bet with Xu Shu for his business, which is a great gift to Zhou Fu.He doesn''t know the great truth that a monarch treats me as a statesman and I repay him as a statesman, but he knows the truth that a drop of water should be rewarded by a spring. Zhang Xiu treats him like this, he can''t let him down.


    These are Zhou Fu''s values.


    Zhou Fu''s eyes were bright, and he said happily, "please don''t worry, general Zhang. Tomorrow, villain will come up with the best dishes to ensure everyone''s satisfaction."


    Zhang xiudao: "that''s good. I was afraid of you. Because of Xu Shu''s words, I can''t do the wilting things well."


    "Certainly not," Zhou said


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go!"


    "The villain is leaving!"


    Zhou Fu bowed and bowed, then turned and left happily.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhou Fu''s back and there was a smile on her face. For Zhang Xiu, the appearance of Zhou Fu was a surprise. He went through later generations, often eating pork, and eating braised pork.


    He knew that the pork was castrated, but Zhang Xiu didn''t know how to castrate it, and she had no practical experience. Even if she knew the direction, she couldn''t guide her.


    Thanks to Zhou Fuhui.


    With Zhou Fu, then under the rule of Zhang Xiu, the diet will change dramatically.


    Diet changes, people''s physique will also change.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is looking forward to it.


    Zhou Fu happily left the general''s house. After a short walk, he returned to the house where he lived.


    Zhou Fu''s house is not far from general Zhang Xiu''s house. It is said that it is Zhou Fu''s house. In fact, Cao Jie bought it with her own money and let Zhou Fu''s family live in it.


    When Zhou Fu came home, he saw his old wife washing clothes. When he saw the old wife, he immediately waved to her and called her to his side, saying what Zhang Xiu had promised.


    Zhou Fu is not a person who can hide his mind.


    All at once.


    After hearing this, Zhou was stunned, and then looked happy. He said that it was the protection of his ancestors and that he wanted to burn money for them. Then he asked Zhou Fu to prepare earlier.


    We must do things well.


    For the Zhou family, this is a major event, a lifetime event.


    Zhou fule looked at his old wife and enjoyed her reverence. He was very happy. He was in a hurry at the beginning, but when his wife urged him, he was not in a hurry. He slowly took out his pig knife, took the knife sharpening stone and began to sharpen it a little bit.


    If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools.


    Zhou Fu had to start with sharpening the knife. First, he sharpened the knife so that the pig would be killed and the blood would be put clean so that the pork would not taste delicious.

 Chapter 327

    The next day, in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others all arrived at the general''s residence. Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Dao and others in the general sequence also came early. After Zhang Xiuxian returned to Chang''an with the cavalry of Langya camp, Gan Ning led the army to Chang''an in the evening.


    All the troops, pull back.


    When civil servants and military generals gathered together, even Jing Zhao Yin Du Ji, who was newly subordinated to Zhang Xiu, also attended.


    There are many talented people in the hall.


    Among the people, only Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru knew the situation, and the rest did not. All they knew was that Zhang Xiu had told her to come to the party. But it''s a surprise to go to dinner early in the morning.


    They were chatting and talking about what had happened recently.


    Pang Tong knew Zhang Xiu well, and it was unlikely that he would hold a banquet early in the morning. He looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, my Lord, why did you suddenly invite us to the banquet today? There''s something weird in it. Do you know why? "


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu was the Minister of the Ministry of officials.


    He is the most important official under Zhang Xiu''s command and is likely to know the situation.


    Xu Shu laughed and did not hide. He immediately said that he had prevented Zhou Fu from being appointed as a partial general. Finally, he said, "the Lord wants to prove that Zhou Fu''s pork is delicious and useful, so he made a special trip to hold a banquet."


    Things will eventually be announced, Xu Shu did not think there was anything, so he said it directly.


    Pang Zhugong joked: "the first bet is that you raise your eyebrows. But this time, it''s interesting. I''m looking forward to it. "


    Other people''s hearts were open, talking about the appointment of Zhou Fu as a partial general.


    At the end of the day, Zhang Xiu came.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, dressed in a white robe, is very handsome. He strode into the hall, and the crowd immediately got up to salute.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, sat down on the throne, and said with a smile: "you have arrived. Today I call you here to let you taste pork. It''s interesting about pork. It comes from a cook named Zhou Fu


    It''s not surprising to hear that people know in advance.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "because of Zhou Fu, I would have bet with Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru. If Zhou Fu''s pork doesn''t smell fishy, then I have to pass the appointment of general Zhou Fu pian."


    Xu Shu said with a smile: "there is such a gamble. I hope the Lord can win."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Yuanzhi, you will surely lose."


    "I''ll wait and see!"


    Xu Shu is neither humble nor overbearing. He has nothing to fear. He seems very relaxed.


    It''s nothing to bet with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said with a smile: "if we don''t say much, let''s talk with facts. This morning, Zhou Fu took the killed pig to his house. He would have been busy with him for a long time. In the backyard kitchen, all kinds of dishes were ready. Now, let''s have a feast on the tip of your tongue. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang xiulang said: "come on, let Zhou Fu arrange the dishes."


    After the soldiers were informed to go down, they soon saw one by one soldiers coming in. In the hands of every soldier, there is a delicate pottery pot, which is the same as a soup pot in later generations.


    The pottery pot is smaller, about 10 cm in diameter and 15 cm in height.


    Inside each pottery pot, there is milk white pig''s hoof soup. There are seven or eight pig''s hooves in it. After nearly two hours of stewing, the pig''s hoof is extremely soft, and the Milky soup is full of crystal clear oil beads, which greatly increases people''s appetite.


    This pig''s hoof soup was made from four pig''s hoof stews after Zhou Fu slaughtered pigs in the early morning of the morning. Four pig''s trotters are put in a big pot and simmered slowly. After boiling, keep warm all the time.


    Now it''s divided into each pot and placed one by one in front of everyone.


    Everyone has a pot of pig''s hoof soup.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the pig''s hoof soup in front of her, picked up a spoon, took a spoon, and drank it with a pee. Although it''s a hot day now, I feel comfortable after drinking a mouthful of warm pig''s hoof soup.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "come on, give it a try."


    When people heard the words, they didn''t take the lead. Among the people present, such as Jia Xu and Li Ru, who were once officials, they have eaten delicacies and are well-informed.


    Rao is like this, and has never drunk the soup stewed with pig''s feet. Now, of course, they don''t know which part of the pig is stewed.


    Zhang Xiu saw that all of them didn''t do anything. She knew that this was a preconceived conflict.


    Because of the conflict, so refused.


    It''s normal.


    After Zhang Xiu took the lead in the demonstration, seeing that no one took the initiative, she said with a smile, "Yuanzhi, don''t you want to bet with Ben Jiang? If you don''t try, how can you decide who will win or lose? "


    Xu Shu gritted his teeth and said, "I''ll have a taste of it."


    He looked down at the Milky soup, picked up the spoon and dropped it.


    At this moment, everyone''s eyes fell on Xu Shu.Xu Shu tried the law by example.


    Everyone wants to see, what is the situation in the end, in case there is a smell of mutton and Sao?


    Xu Shu scooped up a spoonful of soup with a spoon, lowered his head slightly and tasted it gently. The pig''s trotters that come into the mouth are very comfortable, which soaked the soup of all the pig''s feet. Once in the stomach, it seems to make the stomach completely warm up.


    There was a smile on Xu Shu''s face. He opened his mouth again, and a spoonful of soup came into his mouth.


    At this moment, Xu Shu decided.


    The soup is really delicious, and it doesn''t have any peculiar smell.


    Zhang xiudao: "Yuanzhi, how about this soup?"


    "It''s delicious!"


    Xu Shuyan''s simple and comprehensive answer, he said: "although the soup is thick and delicious, without the slightest smell, it can be called a peerless delicacy, but the pork has not been tried. What if the pork tastes good? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "try again."


    "Good!"


    Xu Shu nodded.


    At this time, the civil servants and military generals in the hall heard Xu Shu''s words and quickly picked up spoons and tried pig''s hoof soup. The mellow taste of pig''s hoof soup is distributed in the taste buds, making people feel more comfortable.


    It''s delicious.


    One by one, they tasted the delicious soup and saw the white pork stewed in the soup, but no one took the lead in eating meat with chopsticks. They were worried about the significance of pork.


    Xu Shu is still the pioneer.


    In Xu Shu''s heart, there was a trace of expectation at this time. He scooped up a pig''s hoof with a spoon. At this time of pig''s hoof meat, stewed very soft, a little sip, you can make bone and meat out.


    When the spoon comes out, the pig''s hoof is shaking slightly, which makes people have a big appetite.


    In his eyes, Xu Shu still had a preconceived taste in his heart. He put the pork in the bowl, picked up the chopsticks, carefully put a little into his mouth.


    Pork into the mouth, taste soft, delicate incomparable, a sip on rotten, and then slide down the throat into the stomach, only know delicious, but did not feel fine.


    Compared with the firewood of beef and mutton, pork is more delicate.


    In this era, there are generally few meat and oil. Even the pigs raised by ordinary people are not delicious because they are raised in captivity, have little fat, not much fat, and have a great smell of mutton.


    It''s different to raise pigs.

 Chapter 328

    The pigs in Zhoufu''s house are fat and fat, and have no smell of mutton. They are very comfortable to eat.


    This kind of pork is full of oil and meat. Once it enters the mouth, it''s a great enjoyment. For a person who seldom eats fat pork, for a person who seldom eats meat, it''s delicious to eat meat like pork.


    After Xu Shu ate a small piece, he picked up a whole piece of meat and put it into his mouth.


    Bone spit out, the rest of the meat does not need to chew slowly swallow, then completely swallow into the abdomen.


    Xu Shu''s face was full of satisfaction.


    Other people see this scene, but also no longer hesitate, have picked up pig feet, they quickly eat. The pork into the mouth, soft waxy greasy feeling, let people taste buds bloom completely, the whole person''s tongue is almost crisp.


    "Yummy, yummy!"


    Huang Zhong is the first to speak. He is a rude man and has nothing to pay attention to. Now eat inside the mouth, face brimming with joy, constantly eat up.


    Jia Xu is a good scholar and eats slowly.


    Especially when others are old, many foods are not suitable for people like him. But after he ate the pig''s hoof, he was completely addicted to the taste.


    The pig''s hoof is very soft. It doesn''t need Jia Xu to chew it at all. It only needs a little bit of strength to eat the pig''s hoof. This kind of feeling of melting into the mouth is very popular.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and praised: "this pot of soup and meat is really a delicacy. The soup is delicious and the meat is delicious. It can be called a delicacy in the world. "


    The rest of the people praised.


    The expression on one''s face showed satisfaction.


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes and laughed. She said faintly, "what you used to stew in the pottery pot just now is the pig''s four hooves, the soup made from pig''s feet."


    "Ah


    Xu Shu exclaimed.


    He is really not good at stew.


    The gentleman is far away from the kitchen!


    He was not good at these. He thought it was pork, but it was just stewed with pig''s hooves. Xu Shu then put out a spoon to salvage, and saw the tip of the pig''s foot at the end of the pig''s leg.


    He was absolutely shocked.


    Just pig''s hoof, trampling on the ground all day, can be cooked into such a delicious, it is unexpected.


    Xu Shu took a deep breath, adjusted his surprised attitude, calmed himself down, and continued: "Lord, it''s just pig''s hoof. Although the boiled soup and meat are tasteless, they are not the meat of pigs


    "No hurry, no hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "since it''s killing pigs, it''s impossible to have only pig''s hoof soup. It''s just an appetizer."


    Today''s dishes are all cooked by Zhou Fu himself, but in fact many dishes are directed by Zhang Xiu himself. After all, Zhang Xiu has a lot of experience in later generations. If you bring out a little, you can also Hang Zhou Fu''s menu.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "inform Zhou Fu to bring up the next dish."


    As the order went on, four small tripods came up. The top of each small tripod is about a foot long and wide. The top of each tripod is filled with smoke, and it has a strong fragrance.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers to take a wider table and put four small tripods on it. He got up and went to the table and said to all the people, "this is the second course. Come on, have a try."


    In each small tripod, there is the elbow. This is the elbow on the thigh of the pig.


    Four legs, four elbows.


    Each cooked elbow, showing a burnt sugar color, translucent color, is very attractive.


    This pickled pork elbow was made by Zhou Fu under the guidance of Zhang Xiu. It''s totally impossible to make pickled pork elbow only by Zhou Fu''s ability.


    In this era, there was no white sugar, but there was malt sugar early.


    Zhang Xiu cooked with soy sauce, malt sugar, ginger and garlic, and finally cooked the pickled pork elbow. Although the taste is much worse than that of later generations, it is already ahead of time in this era.


    Zhang Xiu has tasted it.


    This is far more than any dish of this era, especially for people as old as Jia Xu, it is a delicious dish that people can''t give up.


    "Lord, the last will come first."


    Huang Zhong is not polite. He picks up his chopsticks and inserts them into a pig''s elbow. The pickled pork elbow in the small tripod is already very soft. Chopsticks can be easily inserted and a large piece of meat is torn off.


    The shaking skin of the meat, with a strong soup, exudes a refreshing fragrance.


    You can''t help talking.


    It''s hard to resist.


    Huang Zhong breathed twice and took a bite. In a flash, the smell of strong fragrance diffused, making Huang Zhong completely intoxicated. He didn''t speak at all. He took another chopstick and began to eat.


    When the others saw this, they knew the situation immediately.One by one to eat, eat, eat is very lively.


    "Well, well, you young people don''t understand me. Come on, be merciful and leave some for me. "


    Jia Xu saw one by one like a wolf, and quickly opened his mouth.


    He got a little bit of it and liked it after the test.


    It''s delicious.


    Is this pork?


    It''s like a delicacy.


    Zhang Xiu underestimated the fighting power of the people. After a short time, she ate thoroughly, even the bottom of the soup.


    "You are so powerful!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles, but her angular face is full of pride.


    At the moment, Xu Shu was convinced, his hands closed and said: "Lord, this pork really doesn''t have any flavor, even far more than beef and mutton. I''m humble and admit defeat. But what part of the meat did you eat just now? "


    "The meat of a pig''s thigh!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile: "Yuanzhi, now don''t you block the appointment of Zhou Fu as partial general?"


    "don''t stop it!"


    Xu Shu laughed and said, "if the pigs raised by Zhou Fu have no smell of mutton, it will be a great blessing for the common people if they are raised by the common people all over the world."


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    As a matter of fact, this kind of debate is very troublesome. The simplest way is to tell the truth. After everyone has tried pork, they will know that the pigs raised by Zhou Fu have no taste.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "come on, let Zhou Fu serve the third course."


    "Yes


    After a short period of time, the attendants entered with plates of shredded meat.


    This is shredded pork with ginger fried.


    Now, in July, there are ginger in many places. It''s the time when Zijiang is popular. Although few people use ginger for cooking, Zhang Xiu comes from later generations. He instructed Zhou Fu and made it.


    Even if there is no Douban sauce, even if there is no pepper, there is a spicy smell of Cornus officinalis. In addition, the ginger itself is a very flavorful side dish, so when the shredded ginger meat is served, everyone will swallow.


    In front of everyone, there is a small plate.


    Besides, there is a bowl of rice.


    If you don''t eat shredded ginger meat, it''s a pity that this plate of shredded ginger meat is delicious.

 Chapter 329

    Without hesitation, Xu Shu took the lead in eating. When he ate ginger and meat, especially the meat cut into thin strips, it was very smooth. When he ate it in his mouth, the spicy smell of Cornus officinalis and the smell of ginger filled his mouth, which made him intoxicated.


    Because there is no sweet potato, so there is no starch made from sweet potato. Zhang Xiu asked Zhou Fu to make shredded meat with egg white. The meat is as tender as it was made from later tender meat powder, but it is quite good.


    One by one, they were very happy.


    "Yummy, yummy!"


    Gan Ning''s mouth was full of oil and his face was full of joy.


    Zhang Xiu saw in the eyes, and ordered the waiter to serve, this is the last dish, is garlic white meat. Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to fry the double cooked pork, but there was no seasoning. There was no Pixian Douban sauce in Sichuan, which lacked the most soul flavor of the double cooked pork.


    So Zhang Xiu asked Zhou Fu to prepare the garlic white meat, a simple but delicious dish.


    The use of garlic, Cornus and other flavor, enough to make white meat taste abundant.


    Zhou Fu''s knife work is excellent. The mashed garlic white meat is specially made from two pieces of meat. It is fat and thin, and each piece is extremely thin. If you use chopsticks to look up, enough light.


    In front of everyone, still put a small plate.


    Zhang Xiu took the lead in demonstrating one side and said, "this dish is called mashed garlic white meat. Let''s have a try."


    When they heard this, they began to eat.


    One by one, thin slices of meat were mixed in Cornus officinalis, soy sauce and minced garlic, and then they were eaten. After a while, everyone ate all the meat in front of him, including shredded ginger and pork, and even the pig''s hoof soup in every pot.


    Jia Xu had a smaller appetite, and the rest was given to Gan Ning, Huang Zhong and others.


    One by one, very comfortable to eat.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the last dish is made from the meat of pigs. Such pork is by no means inferior to cattle and sheep? "


    Jia Xu wiped his beard and mouth, and solemnly said: "Lord, there is no doubt about the humble position of pork. Today''s meat made from pork is a delicacy. There is a problem with humble jobs, that is, whether such pork is easy to get, and whether it is convenient to raise pigs. "


    Yesterday, I didn''t talk about everything in detail. It was very crude.


    Now, Jia Xu asks carefully.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "the pork we eat is the easiest to raise and promote. It''s more convenient and cheaper than mutton and beef. "


    "The first is piglet castration."


    "Both boars and sows must be castrated when they are piglets. According to Zhou Fu''s description, the castrated pigs will not be in estrus any more, and will not run around like the pigs without castration. "


    "After castration, the smell of the pig''s body disappears, there is no smell, and the temperament is gentle. Just shut up in the pigsty and feed some leftover soup or pig grass every day. "


    "Second, after castration, pigs like to be quiet but not to move. As long as they are properly fed, they can be slaughtered in a circle for at most half a year. They can grow to about 150 Jin, and the better ones can grow to more than 200 Jin."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great complacency and continued: "it''s a troubled time. People can''t eat enough and there''s no extra soup to feed pigs, but you can find pig grass on the mountain. As long as the grass is green, pigs will eat it


    "Guanzhong is gradually stabilizing."


    "When people''s life is better, they can feed their families with surplus grain."


    "In this way, people can eat meat."


    "Even if you don''t eat by yourself, you can sell it for money. Compared with the scarcity of cattle and sheep, pigs can grow to two or three hundred jin, and the pork is fat, which can make the people have meat and oil. For soldiers in the army, it is also excellent to make them eat enough meat and oil. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "all this, Zhou Fu will."


    "That''s why I specially appointed Zhou Fu as the partial general to be responsible for the castration and feeding of piglets. "The government will take the lead in selecting people from poor families, and then I will teach them on a large scale


    "After all, pork is known as cheap meat, which is not delicious. If people raise pigs suddenly, it will only be resisted."


    "It''s very easy for Zhou Fu to promote it after he has cultivated countless apprentices. Although this is a long-term plan, there is no need to be so anxious to implement it. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at the crowd and asked, "what do you think?"


    Xu Shu folded his hands and bowed to Zhang Xiu 90 degrees. He solemnly said, "my Lord''s concern is a long-term plan. In the long run, the physique of our soldiers will be stronger than that of other vassal soldiers. On the battlefield, you can be stronger. "


    Jia Xu said: "Zhou Fu has this ability. It''s really powerful. But my Lord, there is still a lack of a cook in my humble family. You asked Zhou Fu to teach us some cooking skills, and let the cooks in my family learn them, so that we can make our own dishes. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "next, if you have any requirements, you can find Zhou Fu.""Come and tell Zhou Fu to come and see you."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    After four courses, today''s trial is over, and things are handled properly, so Zhang Xiu specially called Zhou Fu.


    After a while, Zhou Fu entered.


    He has a big stomach and is greasy, but now in the eyes of everyone, he is a golden mountain and a silver mountain.


    Zhou Fu is extremely important.


    When Zhou Fu stood and looked at Zhang Xiu, he was full of respect for her. He can cook pig''s hoof Soup for today''s dishes, but he can''t cook any other dishes.


    All the dishes are directed by Zhang Xiu.


    He admired Zhang Xiu.


    As a general in the army, he also knows how to cook, which makes him awe and admire Zhang Xiu.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhou Fu, your official position has been settled. From now on, you are my partial general. Next, you start to recruit apprentices, train people who specialize in piglet castration, and then raise pigs in large quantities


    "General Xie!"


    When Zhou Fu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his face was full of smiles.


    Yes!


    He finally became a partial general.


    From a person who didn''t know big words to a partial general under Zhang Xiu, he was extremely satisfied.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhou Fu and said, "if you want to meet your needs, just ask Xu Shu to arrange for you. What you have to do now is to raise pigs well and do things well. "


    "Yes! I understand. "


    Zhou Fu changed his name and his face was full of joy. When he came back home to face his wife and children, he said that he was an official under Zhang Xiu, a partial general, and no longer a butcher and cook.


    It''s like flying up a branch and becoming a Phoenix.


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    Zhou Fu bowed and turned to leave the hall. However, Zhou Fu did not go home immediately. He still had a lot to do, and he had to thank Cao Jie and Huang Yueying.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Shu and Liu Ba and said, "Xu Shu and Liu Ba, pig raising is a strategy that can not be ignored. You are in charge of people and money, and you should pay more attention to them. "


    "I understand


    Xu Shu and Liu Baqi should go down together.


    Both of them have insight. When they know that pork has no smell, they can see the benefits.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "pork needs to be promoted, and such dishes can also be sold. If you want to do these things, your families or yourself, you can do them. This matter is first promoted, so it is not prohibited for the time being. "


    Everyone nodded.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "Liu Ba, how is the compensation for the land occupied by the hospital going?"


    Liu Ba replied, "don''t worry, my Lord. Everything is handled properly."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu put a smile on her face, waved her hand and said, "you all go down to be busy."


    "Here it is


    Everyone responded and left.

 Chapter 330

    After everyone left, Zhang Xiuxian arranged for his family''s attendants to take pig''s hoof soup and pickled pork elbow to Zhang Zhongjing. Although Zhang Zhongjing did not enter the officialdom, he was still the most important person under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Without Zhang Zhongjing, there would be no hospital.


    Only with Zhang Zhongjing can the current hospital structure be supported.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu got up and went to the back yard. Now he likes to stay with Huang Yueying and wants to watch his children grow up. Zhang Xiu had a rest in the backyard. After lunch, she took a nap before leaving the backyard and went to the study to deal with government affairs.


    Soon after, there was a knock on the door outside the study.


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, and immediately the door was pushed open. A valet rushed in and reported: "general, Zhang Zhongjing, Doctor Zhang has come to see you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please come on!"


    Zhang Xiu attaches great importance to Zhang Zhongjing, who is a national treasure.


    Soon, Zhang Zhongjing rushed into the study. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he immediately saluted her, and then expressed his gratitude to her for the delicious food she had given her.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the Duke of Zhongjing is a man who goes to the three treasures hall for everything. It''s just a little delicious food. It''s not worth your coming to the general''s house to thank me personally. Come on, what''s the problem? "


    Zhang Zhongjing immediately laughed and said, "General Zhang is wise. There is one thing."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "this time I found general Zhang, I hope that general Zhang will help to save Hua Tuo''s life."


    Hua Tuo?


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    As the saying goes, Huatuo in the north and Zhangji in the South lead the way. In their respective fields, they are very powerful doctors. Although Hua Tuo did not leave any classic works, his medical skills were extremely powerful.


    When Zhang Xiu recruited Zhang Zhongjing, she thought that if she could recruit Hua Tuo to the hospital, it would be two more lives for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what difficulties did Hua Tuo encounter?"


    Zhang Zhongjing took a deep breath and replied, "Hua Tuo is also in Chang''an these days. The cause of the incident is that he went to dig the body in the cemetery and was caught


    "Although Hua Tuo is a miracle doctor, it always makes people angry about digging people''s graves."


    "It was hunter who caught Hua Tuo. Instead of beating and scolding him, he just took Hua Tuo to Chang''an County Government and handed him over to Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County."


    "The reason why I know this is that a jailer came to see a doctor when I was in the clinic today. Because of his special status, Hua Tuo was not brought up for trial today. Moreover, we have not found the identity of the owner of the cemetery, so we are still searching for information about the owner of the cemetery. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "this time I found the general, I hope the general can come forward and rescue Hua Tuo."


    "As for Hua Tuo, he did something wrong. This is not controversial. But I have to defend him. I know some of Hua Tuo''s medical skills. "


    "Most of the time, Hua Tuo had to use a knife on behalf of others, which involved his understanding of various organs of the human body, so he had to understand the situation. He didn''t do it for selfish reasons. "


    "Who''s going to dig a grave in the middle of the night when he''s free?"


    Zhang Zhongjing explained: "the reason why Hua Tuo took the risk to do it was to cure the disease and save the people. In order to improve his medical skills, he asked General Zhang to learn from it."


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you sure you are still in the county government?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Zhongjing nodded.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu eagerly, hoping that Zhang Xiu could make a move. For Zhang Zhongjing, the more he understands medical skills, the more clearly he knows that it is not easy to learn medicine and the more difficult it is to practice medical skills.


    He admired Hua Tuo.


    In other words, he didn''t have the courage to dig the grave in the middle of the night.


    If he doesn''t know about Hua Tuo, that''s all. But since he knew and knew that Hua Tuo was in trouble, even though he and Hua Tuo didn''t have much contact and friendship, he was duty bound to do a little bit.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "let me handle Hua Tuo''s affairs."


    "General Xie!"


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "it''s easy to leave Hua Tuo''s life with general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and frowned: "it''s not easy to deal with it, because Hua Tuo''s work is immoral after all. It''s one thing for Hua Tuo to cure and save people. It''s another thing to dig people''s graves. If the other party insists on dealing with Hua Tuo, it''s a helpless thing. After all, in jurisprudence, Hua Tuo made mistakes first. Of course, it depends on the circumstances. "


    When Zhang Zhongjing heard this, he immediately became nervous.


    What to do?


    We can''t let Hua Tuo die.


    Zhang Zhongjing said: "General Zhang, you must think of a way. If Hua Tuo died, it would be a great loss. In this way, there are too few people who do not care for themselves for the sake of medical skills, and who give up their lives for the sake of medical skills. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "although it is difficult, you can rest assured that you will handle the matter properly and ensure Hua Tuo''s safety.""Thank you, general!"


    Zhang Zhongjing said thanks again.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, let''s go to Chang''an County Yamen and have a look at this Chinese miracle doctor."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Zhongjing nodded.


    He followed Zhang Xiu out of the general''s residence and went straight to Chang''an County Government. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the county government of Chang''an, he didn''t go directly to the prison. Instead, he went to see the magistrate of Chang''an and said he wanted to see Hua Tuo.


    Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County, was born in a famous family.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu issued a recruitment order, calling on scholars from all over the world to come to Chang''an. Cui Yi was one of them. Cui Yi arrived in Chang''an. After Xu Shu''s support and assessment, he finally arranged to serve as county magistrate in Chang''an.


    Cui Yi did not disappoint Xu Shu.


    In a short period of time, Cui Yi kept Chang''an in good order, and there were fewer prisoners in the prison. He released those who should be released and punished them, and did not make the prison full of prisoners.


    Cui Yi arranged for someone to bring Hua Tuo, and then said, "general, after pondering over Hua Tuo''s humble position, I think it''s not easy to deal with the situation."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Cui Yi continued: "although Hua Tuo is a world-renowned doctor, he has saved countless lives. But this time, he did make a big mistake. Digging people''s graves is almost like killing relatives. "


    "It''s immoral."


    "It''s quite difficult to deal with."


    "The family members of the owner who are still looking for the tomb will have news back in an hour at most. The man who captured Hua Tuo today is a hunter. "


    Cui Yi said: "when the hunter took Hua Tuo, he didn''t have much anger. The problem is that once the victim arrives at the county government, it''s hard to say. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed with Cui Yi''s analysis. After all, it involves one''s own relatives. Everyone is angry.


    Zhang Xiu pondered for a moment, said: "although it is not easy to deal with, but things happen, we must deal with. What do you think we should do about it now? "


    Cui Yi is a shrewd man. Seeing Zhang Xiu coming in person, he knows that Zhang Xiu must help Hua Tuo.


    So Cui Yi thought about it and said, "the humble consideration is to ask Hua Tuo to apologize to the victim after seeing him. In his humble position, he began to persuade him again, moved him with emotion, explained him with reason, and tried to make the victim forgive Hua Tuo. As long as the victims calm down, the matter will be solved. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t answer.


    Cui Yi''s handling method is not very clever. What if the other party doesn''t give up?


    There must be a panacea.

 Chapter 331

    As soon as Cui Yi saw Zhang Xiu''s appearance, he knew that the situation was wrong. Zhang Xiu was certainly dissatisfied with the solution he proposed, so she didn''t say a word. Cui Yi''s mind turns around. After pondering over it, he knows that Zhang Xiu must not only let the victim calm down, but also save Hua Tuo''s life, and let the people have nothing to say.


    It''s not easy.


    At least Cui Yi has not come up with an answer.


    It wasn''t long. Hua Tuo was brought.


    Today, his body is better than that of the middle-aged people, but his face is not as white as that of the middle-aged people.


    It''s just that Hua Tuo is a bit dirty. After all, he was caught digging.


    Cui Yi, with a solemn look on his face, waved his hand and said, "Hua Tuo, this is the commander of Sili and the general of Zhennan. This time, general Zhang came to the county government to inquire about you. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "doctor Hua, sit down."


    "Thank you, general Zhang!"


    After giving thanks, Hua Tuo sat down respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Hua Tuo, do you admit that you sat down?"


    With a helpless look, Hua Tuo sighed: "to General Zhang, it''s true that little Lao ER was wrong first. He did not deny the mistakes he had made and was willing to admit the punishment. I''m willing to take any punishment. "


    Zhang xiudao: "you are free and easy. Since you know it''s wrong, why do you want to do it?"


    When Hua Tuo heard the speech, he had a trace of helplessness in his eyes.


    He didn''t want to dig people''s graves in the middle of the night. But for the sake of his own medical skills and in order to cure more patients, Hua Tuo would go even if there were risks.


    Although thousands of people, but also to carry on!


    This is the voice of Hua Tuo.


    Hua Tuo didn''t explain too much. He said, "General Zhang, this is the end of the matter. It''s no use for me to explain. And at that time, it was really illegal. I''m willing to be punished for what I''ve done. "


    He confessed directly.


    In short, to accept the punishment is, after all, it is his fault that comes first.


    Zhang Xiu thought carefully in her heart.


    In order to save Hua Tuo, we must be creative, but we still don''t know the situation of the victim.


    Instead of talking with Hua Tuo, Zhang Xiu said, "I will help you out of your business. So you don''t have to worry when you''re in jail. "


    Hua Tuo asked, "why did general Zhang save me?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "at Zhang Zhongjing''s request, when he was in the hospital today, he heard the jailer in the cell say that you were arrested. So I specially begged Ben Jiang to come forward to save your life. "


    Zhang Zhongjing went forward to salute and introduced himself.


    Hua Tuo replied, "it''s Doctor Zhang in front of me. Hua Tuo is polite. Hua Tuo remembered the great kindness and virtues of Doctor Zhang


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "doctor Hua is very kind."


    Both of them are called each other''s miracle doctors. After all, whether Hua Tuo or Zhang Zhongjing is a miracle doctor.


    In medicine, they are all great masters.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t let them talk about the past or anything. After no longer asking, she arranged for someone to send Hua Tuo back to the prison of the county government and waited quietly. It wasn''t long before the Yamen officer returned to the County Yamen and gave Cui Yi the information he had inquired about.


    The victim''s name was sun Bufan, and he died. Sun Bufan is in his early 40s. He has two sons and a daughter under his knees. They are honest ordinary people who live by farming.


    Sun Bufan''s two sons.


    One is sun Dazhu, the other is sun Erzhu, and her daughter, sun Shi, doesn''t even have a name.


    The official yamen officer informed the sun family.


    At midnight tomorrow morning, Hua Tuo will be brought up for trial and the sun family will be informed to be present.


    After hearing the news, Zhang Xiu inquired about sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu. Both of them are honest young people. They are honest and honest.


    After learning the news, Zhang Xiu said again, "Cui Yi, have you got the detailed information, and have you any strategies to deal with it?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    Cui Yi shakes his head. He can''t think of a way now.


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, tomorrow morning''s trial will be handed over to ben to deal with in the future. You can arrange it. Tomorrow morning, Ben will come to the county government to deal with the matter himself. This trial, which is open to the public, will not stop the people from watching. "


    "Here it is


    Cui Yi should take the lead.


    For Cui Yi, his previous proposal failed to satisfy Zhang Xiu, and he was still very disappointed. When the opportunity comes, as long as he comes up with a solution, he will enter Zhang Xiu''s field of vision.


    This is a golden opportunity.


    But he missed it.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of Cui Yi''s inner thoughts. He arranged things and left with Zhang Zhongjing.


    Out of the county government, Zhang Zhongjing thanks Zhang Xiu again, and then prepares to go to the hospital. Today, although the hospital is still under construction, a place has been set aside for doctors to treat patients.Most of the time, Zhang Zhongjing is in the hospital.


    It is Zhang Zhongjing''s favorite thing to treat and save people.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Mr. Zhongjing, you are too lazy to go back alone. Let''s go. My carriage is faster. I''ll give you a ride


    "Thank you, general!"


    Zhang Zhongjing did not refuse.


    He directly got into the carriage and drove with Zhang Xiu. Sitting in the carriage, Zhang Zhongjing looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, Cui Yi can''t save Hua Tuo without a clear plan. I don''t know, general Zhang. Is there a way? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Mr. Zhongjing, don''t worry. I already have a way."


    "That''s good, that''s good."


    There was a smile on Zhang Zhongjing''s face. Zhang Xiu''s hand is enough to ensure Hua Tuo''s safety, so Zhang Zhongjing doesn''t have to worry any more, and he can continue to cure and save people wholeheartedly.


    The carriage stops at the door of the hospital. Zhang Xiu and Zhang Zhongjing get out of the carriage at the same time. Zhang Xiu asks again, "the construction of the hospital is the most important thing. If there is any difficulty, Zhong Jing Gong can go to me directly, or he can go to Xu Shu. "


    Zhang Zhongjing said, "thank you, general."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay. She got up and went back to the carriage, then went back to the general''s house. He returned to the Yamen and sat down in his study to think about Hua Tuo. Previously in the carriage, Zhang Zhongjing asked if he had a solution. At that time, Zhang Xiu didn''t think of a perfect solution, just to keep Zhang Zhongjing from worrying, Zhang Xiu said that she had a solution.


    Zhang Xiu sat and pondered carefully.


    A clock scheme constantly emerged in Zhang Xiu''s mind, and one by one was constantly overthrown.


    Finally, Zhang Xiu made a decision.


    To deal with Hua Tuo''s affairs, there is no need to be too complicated. In fact, simple handling is the best.


    In her heart, Zhang Xiu has a detailed plan.


    When Zhang Xiu completely conceived the whole plan, she made some arrangements and went straight back to the hospital. Now it was evening, and it was almost dinner time, and he was a little hungry.


    From Huang Yueying''s yard in the backyard, Zhang Xiu had dinner and dealt with some government affairs in her study, so she had an early rest and had to keep up her spirit to face the matter of Hua Tuo''s trial tomorrow.

 Chapter 332

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu got up early, ate early after dinner, then took Deng Zhan to Chang''an County Government.


    Zhang Xiu is very careful about the trial of Hua Tuo. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the county government, there were many people watching outside the gate of the county government. After all, it was a public trial and did not stop the people from watching.


    Zhang Xiu enters through the back door of the county government. Cui Yi sees that Zhang Xiu is coming and salutes quickly: "humble Cui Yi, meet the general."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    Cui Yi looked worried and said, "general, everything is ready. The sun family also arrived, but this trial, do you really want to bring it up in public? It will be even more difficult for countless people to gather around and see that Hua Tuo is free from his sins. "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "everything will be in, you don''t have to worry."


    "Here it is


    Cui Yi said nothing more.


    Cui Yi thought about the trial of Hua Tuo last night, but he really didn''t come up with a solution. After all, it''s not easy to satisfy the sun family, get rid of Hua Tuo''s guilt and convince the people.


    In particular, public trial.


    It''s not easy to do with the people.


    Zhang Xiu sits down in the side hall of the interrogation hall, reaches out her hand and taps the table in front of her, waiting for the time to arrive.


    The time for the trial is set at 6:00 a.m.


    It''s a good time to be on trial. As soon as the time came, Zhang xiutou, wearing Jinxian crown and robes, stood up and went out, with Cui Yi following.


    After a while, Zhang Xiu went to the hall of the county government. Zhang Xiu sits directly on the main seat, Cui Yi sits below, next to the main record who is responsible for recording the case.


    Zhang Xiu shook her sleeve and said, "open the door and let the people enter the Yamen."


    When the order was given, the officers of the county government moved quickly. In a short time, people gathered at the gate of the County Hall and looked eagerly at the hall.


    In this era, there is no entertainment.


    Watching the crowd is always the most direct way of entertainment, especially Zhang Xiu''s personal trial, the people are more curious. Many people, hearing the news, stood at the door of the hall to see what was going on?


    I only know public interrogation, but I don''t know what it is.


    The murmur of discussion, one after another.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. In fact, for ordinary people, they don''t know Cui Yi, the magistrate of Chang''an County, or Zhang Xiu. Even though Zhang Xiu has appeared in public several times, few people have seen her.


    Most people don''t know what Zhang Xiu looks like.


    So Zhang Xiu sits on it. Many people take Zhang Xiu as the magistrate of Chang''an County.


    In the crowd, someone suddenly said, "well, this is not the magistrate of Chang''an County. It''s Zhang Xiu, the general of Zhennan. I saw Zhang Xiu outside the south gate when Li Xi and Guo Si were brought up for trial


    As soon as this remark came out, many people were shocked.


    What''s going on today?


    It''s a surprise that Zhang Xiu tried the case in person.


    Some people agreed, saying that it was Zhang Xiu. After several people confirmed it, people''s eyes lit up. They felt that there must be something big today, so they could see the big scene.


    After all, there are a lot of people around, all of them are blocked at the gate of the County Hall.


    Zhang Xiu looked around, patted the startling wood, and said, "be quiet!"


    When the people heard about it, they were all quiet.


    All eyes converge on Zhang Xiu again.


    With a serious face, Zhang Xiu said slowly, "this is Zhang Xiu. Today, we are here to hear the case of Hua Tuo."


    WOW!!


    The voices of discussion are ringing again.


    Although the people who just stood at the front knew the identity of Zhang Xiu, they were only limited to a small range of people, and more people didn''t know. Especially the people who just arrived, standing in the distance of the hall door, can not see the situation in the hall, can only rely on some people to convey.


    Zhang Xiu personally heard the news, the people are very surprised.


    There was constant discussion.


    Zhang Xiu once again photographed the startling wood, let the people keep quiet, said in a deep voice: "the case will be heard today, the plaintiff is sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu, the prisoner is Hua Tuo."


    This statement, in general, describes the relationship between the plaintiff and the defendant.


    Cui Yi is a bit eccentric.


    He was brought to trial in prison, never before. Zhang Xiu''s arraignment is quite different. He is also curious to see how Zhang Xiu wants to break the situation?


    Zhang xiulang said: "Sun Dazhu, sun Erzhu!"


    "The grass people are here!"


    Sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu quickly stand out and kneel down to salute Zhang Xiu. Both of them are honest people who live by farming and live in poverty.


    They have not seen the world, standing in this hall, instinctively afraid. Can think of his father sun Bufan''s grave have been pried, nearly was gouged bones, heart and anger.It''s my father, after all.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "get up and talk. You don''t have to kneel down."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu got up immediately.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "Cui Yi, all the people among you should introduce the situation of the sun family clearly."


    "Here it is


    Cui Yi answered immediately.


    Introduction, is Zhang Xiu arrived early in the morning, gave him the copy, Cui Yi just need to follow the copy on the introduction.


    Cui Yi took out the rice paper. He had seen it before, and then said in a loud voice, "the plaintiffs sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu are from baimating, Lantian Township, Chang''an County, Beijing Zhaoyin Prefecture."


    "He has been farming for generations, and there are five people in his family."


    "Three days ago, sun Bufan, the father of sun''s brothers, died of illness and was buried in the mountains near baimating. The night before yesterday, sun Bufan, who had just been buried, was dug


    "It''s Hua Tuo who planed the grave."


    Cui Yi''s voice was cadenced and said, "Hua Tuo was encountered by hunters in the process of digging the grave, and he was immediately caught in the county yamen."


    After that, Cui Yi sat down.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu and asked, "brother sun, is what Cui Yi said true?"


    "True!"


    The sun brothers answered immediately.


    The two brothers also listened to the hunter about digging the grave. After all, the hunter knew them well.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "Cui Yi, explain the situation of Hua Tuo."


    As soon as these words came out, countless people looked at Hua Tuo.


    Today, Hua Tuo has changed his prison clothes and washed at night, so his clothes are neat and his hair has been combed, which shows that he is immortal and has his own style.


    This made the people a little surprised.


    Why do such people go to dig people''s graves.


    At Zhang Xiu''s command, Cui Yi picked up the prepared copy again and read out: "prisoner Hua Tuo, a native of peiguo and Qiao County, is a world-famous doctor who is good at medicine and helps the world. The night before yesterday, he dug his grave in the middle of the night and was caught by hunters on the spot. "


    Boom!!


    Immediately after the words were read out, countless people began to talk about them.


    It was Hua Tuo who was caught.


    In the past, no one cared about the name of Hua Tuo. After all, no one would associate the miracle doctor with Hua Tuo. But now after Cui Yixuan read it, all the people were shocked, and their faces were full of amazement.


    This is doctor Hua tuohua!


    You know, Hua Tuo is a world-famous doctor. He helped the wounded and saved the dying, and countless people received his kindness. Even in Chang''an, Hua Tuo''s footprints are everywhere.


    Now Hua Tuo has been arrested.


    It''s like thunder in the clear sky.

 Chapter 333

    "Silence


    Zhang Xiu saw the people talking at the door and gave a loud order again. With his order, all the people who talked about it soon regained their peace, but they were surprised why Hua Tuo ran to dig people''s graves.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Hua Tuo and said, "Hua Tuo, is what Cui Yi said true?"


    "True!"


    Hua Tuo''s answer is neither humble nor overbearing.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu wanted to save him, but Hua Tuo didn''t know exactly how to save him.


    What Hua Tuo wants to do is to follow Zhang Xiu''s question.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Hua Tuo, you are a world-famous doctor. Everyone is favored by you. Even if you lie at home, you can eat and drink all your life. Why do you dig the grave of the dead at night? "


    This is what the people are most concerned about.


    One by one, they looked at Hua Tuo with deep curiosity.


    Hua Tuo replied, "to General Zhang, the sinner invented mapeisan, which can make people use a knife to cut off the sick place without much pain."


    "But if you want to use a knife on people, if you don''t know anything about the structure of the human body, you can do it at will. It''s not saving people, but harming them."


    "Before, criminals had used animal experiments, but they could not judge accurately."


    "After the sinner thinks about it, if he wants to make medical skills go further and cure more people, he has to really understand the human body. Therefore, after learning that sun Bufan was buried, he quietly touched the grave and wanted to dig it out. "


    Hua Tuo''s tone was a little low, and he said, "I didn''t expect that I was caught by the hunter just after I started. If the sinner is guilty, he is willing to be punished. Please ask general Zhang to deal with him. "


    Hua Tuo was the first time to dig a man''s grave. Unexpectedly, he was arrested.


    After Hua Tuo explained the reason, the people began to discuss again. Some agreed with Hua Tuo and some opposed him.


    Zhang xiulang said: "Hua Tuo, although you are trying to improve your medical skills, you can even say that you are sacrificing yourself for others. You would rather ruin your reputation, but you should also improve your medical skills and cure more people."


    "But you''re not going to do it. It is especially disrespectful to dig people''s graves and humiliate their ancestors. "


    "The dead, after all."


    "The dead are the most important, but you still want to dig people''s graves."


    "It''s no less than murder."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she said in a loud voice: "your sins, even if you are a miracle doctor, even if you save countless people, must be punished. Otherwise, I would not have been able to account to the sun family and countless people. "


    Hua Tuo said respectfully, "sinners are willing to accept any punishment."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will punish you three times."


    "First, go to sun Bufan''s grave in person and offer incense to apologize to the dead."


    "Second, compensate the sun brothers for 100000 yuan to make up for the damage to the sun family."


    "Third, the staff should be responsible for the fifty army staff and make an example."


    Zhang Xiu said, "can you be convinced?"


    "Be convinced!"


    Hua Tuo took a puff from the corner of his mouth, but he also answered directly. Let him go to the grave and apologize. He has no problem. But he was so poor that he didn''t have much money and couldn''t afford 100000. Besides, after all, he is in his early fifties. Even if he is in good health, he may lie in bed for three or five months after being beaten by 50 soldiers. After all, he is old.


    Hua Tuo has the heart to put it forward, but he thinks that he really has a mistake first, and Zhang Xiu also wants to help him, so he doesn''t say anything. In fact, if he really planed the grave of a large family, he would be killed on the spot.


    However, Hua Tuo did not dare to do such a thing.


    Zhang Xiu looked at sun''s brothers and asked, "what do you think of the official''s disposal?"


    "We have no problem!"


    Sun Dazhu took the lead in answering.


    There was a smile on his face.


    100000 yuan!


    Their family is very poor. If they could get 100000 yuan, their family would not be so poor. Even with a hundred thousand dollars, he and his second son can marry a daughter-in-law, and they are no longer single.


    I don''t think both brothers agree.


    At this time, suddenly there were people in the crowd, shouting: "General Zhang, the grass people have something to say."


    Zhang xiudao: "who is talking."


    "Me, it''s me!"


    In the crowd, one person came forward.


    This man is in his early thirties. He is a knight errant. He said in a loud voice: "as far as the matter is concerned, the Chinese miracle doctor planed the sun family''s grave and showed disrespect to his ancestors. This should be punished. There is no problem."


    "But the compensation for compensation and the apology for apology, why punish them?"


    "If the fifty soldiers stick down, the average middle-aged man will have to lose half his life and will not be able to get out of bed for three or five months. After all, the miracle doctor Hua is old. How can he bear the fifty army staff? "


    "If the fifty army sticks down, he will die."


    The Ranger continued: "what''s more, it''s not evil that the Chinese doctor planed people''s graves, it''s to cure the disease and save people, which is justifiable. Even if he made a mistake first, the problem is that he didn''t succeed at all, but he was arrested as soon as he took action. ""It''s a bit too much to punish fifty army sticks."


    "The grassroots think it''s improper to handle it. It''s too harsh."


    Ranger said: "General Zhang, the grassroots ask for leniency."


    Zhang Xiu said with a solemn expression: "although Hua Tuo saved countless people, this incident humiliated sun Bufan and even humiliated his brother. If we do not punish him severely, how can we be convinced."


    "General, the grassroots don''t agree."


    In the crowd, another one stood up and said, "as you said just now, it''s time to apologize. It''s time to lose money. It''s the end of humanity. What''s more, Hua Tuo was also a miracle doctor, saving countless lives. It is not proper to punish such people. "


    The rest of the people agreed.


    One by one, they are all persuading Zhang Xiu, hoping that Zhang Xiu can open up her own way.


    After all, Hua Tuo is a miracle doctor.


    At this time, there was already a lot of discussion.


    Most of the time, the people sympathize with the weak. At the beginning, Hua Tuo planed the sun family''s grave, and the sun brothers became weak, so the people naturally stood by the sun brothers.


    After Zhang Xiu announced the decision, Hua Tuo not only had to compensate and apologize, but also had to be blamed by the staff. Hua Tuo became a weak man, and the object of sympathy of the people shifted.


    Many people even complain that the sun brothers are unreasonable.


    In particular, Hua Tuo is a miracle doctor.


    These days, no family has three diseases and two pains. As long as they are ill, they need to be treated. Everyone wants to make friends with such a miracle doctor as Hua Tuo. At least help him. Maybe he will be useful in the future.


    Therefore, on the basis of sympathizing with Hua Tuo, countless people began to ask for help.


    For a moment, the crowd was furious.


    Cui Yi saw such a change in his eyes, with an incredible look on his face.


    How is that possible?


    Why did the common people suddenly turn around? Instead of supporting the sun brothers, they all supported Hua Tuo.


    Cui Yi is not a stupid person, he thought quickly, and immediately understood. Zhang Xiu first asked him to explain the situation of both sides. He said that Hua Tuo was a miracle doctor. After that, Zhang Huatuo sympathized with the people.


    Although Zhang Xiu was a villain, she helped Hua Tuo and made the people no longer hate him.


    In fact, it''s very simple.


    Cui Yi''s heart was filled with emotion, and his heart was full of praise for Zhang Xiu. This method was simply too clever.


    From the beginning to the end, even if Zhang Xiu heard countless people beg for mercy, he did not let go, but looked at the sun brothers. It is not the common people or Zhang Xiu who should let Hua Tuo go. The key lies in the sun brothers.

 Chapter 334

    At this moment, the sun brothers were a little embarrassed. After all, they were honest people. Now, under the attack of countless people, they were a little flustered at that time.


    Sun Erzhu was a little more clever and took the initiative to say: "General Zhang, the great doctor Hua is willing to compensate and apologize. We are very satisfied. After all, doctor Hua is old, so you don''t have to use the staff to blame the army. "


    He spoke slowly, though not stumbling.


    It took a while to finish.


    As soon as sun Dazhu heard his younger brother''s words, although he was honest, he also understood that he would stop when he saw the good. He immediately said, "general, what Er Zhu said is what I mean. We don''t want to let doctor Hua get hurt. After all, we didn''t really hurt my father. "


    Two people speak together.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said: "you have to think about it clearly. If this will be judged now, there will be no room for turning back. At that time, even if you want to be accountable, it can''t be changed any more. "


    "No change, no change!"


    Sun Dazhu and sun Erzhu shook their heads one after another.


    In fact, they are quite satisfied. They can get 100000 yuan, which is a big bargain.


    Of course, it has to be attributed to tiger hunting.


    After they go back, they still have to thank liehu. After all, it was someone who helped to catch Hua Tuo.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "if so, it''s settled. Hua Tuo humiliated and sun''s brother''s dead father, apologized at the grave and paid another 100000 yuan. Since then, the case has been closed! "


    Zhang Xiu settled the case with one hammer.


    After Zhang Xiu finished the case, some yamen servants came forward and began to disperse the people at the gate.


    At the end of the case, the follow-up is not enough for outsiders.


    Zhang Xiu nodded to Deng Zhan and saw that Deng Zhan had taken 100000 yuan. However, this is not a hundred thousand five baht money, but gold. Although it is not real gold, it is a gold cake circulating in the market.


    In this way, it is convenient for the two brothers to carry.


    After the settlement was made clear, some yamen officers sent the sun brothers away, while Hua Tuo stayed temporarily.


    In the hall, only Zhang Xiu, Hua Tuo and Deng Zhan were left.


    Even Cui Yi, he left.


    Hua Tuo looked at Zhang Xiu, arched his hand and said, "General Zhang''s great kindness and virtue are unforgettable to Hua Tuo. Without general Zhang''s help, Hua Tuo would have suffered a lot, even in prison. Thank you, general Zhang


    But it''s not important for Zhang Qingxiao. If you want to thank Zhang Zhongjing of Chang''an hospital, when he was in town, he heard the jailer say that you were arrested. Zhang Zhongjing went all the way to find Ben Jiang, hoping Ben Jiang would help you. "


    Hua Tuo said: "the kindness of Doctor Zhang is unforgettable."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she didn''t hesitate any more and continued: "now that the miracle doctor Hua has arrived in Chang''an, would you like to stay in Chang''an hospital and save people with Zhong Jinggong?"


    Hua Tuo, however, shook his head and said, "General Zhang, I''m used to idle clouds and wild cranes. I''m not used to being restrained. What''s more, I have to travel around to accumulate experience. "


    But Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "the Chinese miracle doctor is in the hospital. He''s not bound. No one controls you."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "what''s more, the Chinese miracle doctor wants to travel around and accumulate experience. Is it so easy to accumulate experience in Chang''an hospital?"


    "In Chang''an hospital, there are countless patients every day. Small diseases and small pains are diagnosed and treated by ordinary doctors. "


    "Great doctor Hua can meet all kinds of problems."


    "This is conducive to the accumulation of experience and the development of vision of the Chinese miracle doctor."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the most important thing is that I think the reason why the Chinese miracle doctor planed the grave is to understand the structure of the body through anatomy. But I''m afraid the only way to do that is to travel around and look for bodies in the mass graves. "


    "It''s really hard."


    "Some corpses are rotten, some corpses don''t attach."


    "It''s extremely difficult."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "but in the hospital, I can continue to provide the corpse for the Chinese miracle doctor, for you to dissect and understand."


    When Hua Tuo heard this, his heart pounded.


    He is very good at Pediatrics, gynecology and other aspects. He is also good at using the knife. But in fact, his experience is not rich enough. After all, he does not have enough anatomy.


    Hua Tuo wants to understand the structure of human body and form a systematic theory, which is his wild hope.


    He wants to make something of it.


    Hua Tuo took a deep breath and asked, "how can general Zhang provide me with a corpse?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "in today''s world, what is the easiest to get is the body. After years of fighting and fighting, there are countless corpses on the battlefield. There are countless corpses left in all previous battles. As long as the master doctor Hua is willing to stay in the hospital of Chang''an, I can provide you with enough corpses to let you know constantly. "


    After hearing this, Hua Tuo had to admit that what Zhang Xiu said was reasonable.


    Only a vassal like Zhang Xiu could really get the corpse easily. It was quite difficult for Hua Tuo to get the corpse on his own.At the moment, Hua Tuo was a little excited.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in my opinion, the Chinese miracle doctor''s medical skills are superb. At this point, he is still working hard to improve his medical skills in order to cure more injuries."


    "But one man''s strength is short."


    "There are only a limited number of people who can be cured by the doctor alone."


    "When you stay in Chang''an hospital, on the one hand, you can see all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases and improve your medical skills. On the other hand, you can preach and teach, and pass on the exquisite medical skills, so that more apprentices can cure and save people."


    "Only in this way can we really teach people to fish."


    "Only in this way can we help the world."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sincere and said: "in fact, it''s a very simple truth. Zhong Jinggong wanted to travel all over the world just like the great doctor Hua. He wanted to go around to cure and save people, but he stayed in the end."


    "He knows exactly what''s going on."


    "He can stay all the time. I didn''t cheat him, but let him show his strong points."


    "It''s the same with the stay of doctor Hua."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I am sincere and hope that doctor Hua can stay. In the hospital, you can show your strong points, realize your ambition and ideal in the hospital, and benefit countless people. "


    Speaking of the end, Zhang Xiu said: "I''m not threatening to repay my kindness. I don''t have this idea. As far as I''m concerned, it''s icing on the cake for the Chinese miracle doctor to stay. Is there any direct benefit for me? No, it''s just to make the people better, so that more people can get treatment after they get sick. "


    When Hua Tuo heard Zhang Xiu''s last words, he didn''t hesitate any more. He immediately said, "General Zhang, you don''t have to say any more. I''m willing to stay. I hope general Zhang can fulfill your promise. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    With Hua Tuo left behind, he had two great doctors under his command.


    North Huatuo and South Zhangji have been gathered under Zhang Xiu''s command, which means the expansion of Zhang Xiu''s hospital system. For Zhang Xiu, there are more people in the hospital. Next, he can gradually expand the number of military doctors, so that the army can have countless military doctors to accompany, at least to ensure that the casualties of soldiers in the army are reduced again.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s future plan.


    For the time being, it can''t be popularized. After all, Zhang Xiu has only Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo under her command. There are many other doctors, but there are too few apprentices to be independent.


    With Hua Tuo left, Zhang Xiu did not stay. She immediately left the county government with Hua Tuo and Deng Zhan, and took a carriage to the hospital.


    Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Zhongjing and said what Hua Tuo had left behind.


    Zhang Zhongjing was very happy.


    Hua Tuo is a famous doctor in the world. It is very helpful for the whole hospital to stay in the hospital.


    Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo had a simple conversation at first, but when they talked about their illness, they were completely fascinated and left Zhang Xiu to one side. Zhang Xiu doesn''t care, doesn''t disturb, then takes Deng Zhan to leave.


    With Zhang Zhongjing, he is not worried about Hua Tuo''s arrangement.

 Chapter 335

    After returning to the general''s residence, Zhang Xiu had nothing to do with her affairs. Suddenly, she thought about pork. She took a pile of rice paper, cut it, and began to write about how to make dishes.


    Zhang Xiu wrote down the dishes made of pork in her memory one by one, and also roughly wrote down the steps of making them. It took a whole day to write down all kinds of dishes in the evening.


    Not long after Zhang Xiugang finished her writing, a servant came to inform her that Huang Yueying had invited him to dinner in the backyard.


    Zhang Xiu took a pile of rice paper and bound it into a book with needle and thread. Then she went back to the hospital with books.


    Tonight''s dish is still made of pork.


    For Zhang Xiu, such a dish with meat and oil is a delicacy. After a meal, she is very happy.


    Cao Jie wiped the oil stains on the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "my husband, Zhou Fu asked me if he could make the pickled pork elbows and shredded ginger meat made this morning in other places?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "is he still at home?"


    "Yes


    Cao Jie said with a smile: "Zhou Fu is now the head chef of his family. The food of my concubine and sister Huang is handled by Zhou Fu himself. We have to get our three meals a day ready before Zhou Fu can go back to his business. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not easy for him to be a general. As a partial general, I have to take care of you. "


    Cao Jie said with a smile: "you can''t forget your roots in life. Even if he is partial to the general, he is also partial to the general of his husband. You can''t just be a partial general and ignore our family''s affairs. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "call people."


    "Yes


    Cao Jie immediately got the order and asked the servant girl to inform him.


    Soon, Zhou Fu came.


    Today''s Zhou Fu, although still happy, although the body is still greasy, but the strength of his face is completely different. Although he was a partial general, he was still a cook in the general''s mansion.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, Zhou Fu pushed the golden mountain down to the jade pillar and knelt down to salute.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "get up and talk."


    "Yes


    Zhou Fu got up quickly.


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "you are now the appointment of the general, there are official positions in the body, but also in charge of the family diet, is some wronged you."


    "No grievance!"


    Zhou Fu shook his head and said, "report back to the general, I don''t have much time to cook. There are a lot of other things. It is not possible to teach apprentices and re castrate piglets for cultivation overnight. It''s good to have a humble job. "


    For Zhou Fu, he likes the feeling of being a partial general, but he is more willing to be a cook in the general''s mansion. How many people can''t ask to work in the general''s office.


    Zhou Fu knows this.


    This really needs to be put outside. A partial general may have to please him in front of the cook in his general''s mansion.


    So, Zhou Fu is very happy.


    What''s more, it''s also interesting for him to be a cook in the general''s mansion and talk and boast with his family.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you can take care of both."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu asked, "can you read?"


    Zhou Fu shook his head and said, "illiterate!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "since you can''t read, from now on, you should read and read. Being an official, if you can''t read, isn''t it a joke? "


    "Yes, I will try my best to read."


    Zhou Fu was suffering with a helpless look. It''s hard for him to read. He would rather deal with pigs and cook all day than read.


    Seeing Zhou Fu''s expression, Zhang Xiu took out the previously written book from her sleeve, handed it to Zhou Fu, and said, "this book is a recipe, including the dishes you will be instructed to cook this morning. All the recipes are written down by Ben. If you want to learn, you have to read. I''ll give you this recipe. "


    "Ah


    Zhou Fu heard a exclamation, his face was full of ecstasy, and said: "thank you, general, thank you


    He came forward to take the recipe, and his face was very happy.


    After finishing the dishes in the morning, he was very envious of the dishes under the guidance of Zhang Xiu. He wanted to follow the experiment, but it was under the guidance of Zhang Xiu himself. Without Zhang Xiu''s permission, he did not dare to experiment at will, so he entrusted Cao Jie''s relationship, hoping that Cao could intercede for him and let him cook.


    Now Zhang Xiu has given him all the recipes, and he has allowed them.


    Cao Jie suddenly said, "husband, can you give me a look at the menu?"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Immediately, Zhou Fu handed the recipe to Cao Jie.


    When Cao Jie opened it, he saw Zhang Xiu''s words, and his face looked amazing. He said, "my husband''s words are so powerful that they can be called both strength and strength. This is the first time I''ve seen such a font. My husband is really talented. "


    Although Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu, Cao Jie couldn''t get in touch with government affairs and couldn''t see Zhang Xiu''s handwriting, so he didn''t know that Zhang Xiu''s calligraphy was very beautiful.Zhang Xiu smiles, without any pride.


    Cao Jie looked down quickly. Her eyebrows were like willow shoots, constantly shaking, sometimes frowning, sometimes joyful. After reading the recipe written by Zhang Xiu, she took a long breath.


    Cao Jie said: "my husband is really a talent. He is so proficient in cooking. Zhou Fu has been with me for more than ten years, and I don''t see him doing any research. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s all food. In fact, it''s nothing."


    "It''s shocking," Cao said


    At this time, Huang Yueying was also curious and said, "sister, show me."


    Cao Jie immediately handed it over.


    Huang Yueying quickly looks through the dishes on the menu. Her whole understanding of Zhang Xiu is once again impacted. She is Zhang Xiu''s pillow side person, knows that Zhang Xiu can be both civil and military. Now, it''s amazing to find that Zhang Xiu is so proficient in cooking.


    After reading it, Huang Yueying handed the recipe to Cao Jie and said, "what else do you have, my husband? I don''t know."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "no, no!"


    He looked at the surprised look of the two women, but he was a little proud in his heart, but his face was still indifferent.


    Cao Jie looked at Zhou Fu, and finally his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He said, "my husband, I have an idea."


    Zhang xiudao: "what''s your idea?"


    Cao Jie said: "my husband should forgive me. I can''t treat my sin because of my body."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "well, what can you do to cure your crime, but it doesn''t matter. It''s all a family. There''s nothing that''s going to turn over because of one sentence. It''s not so serious. "


    At this time, Cao Jie straightened up his posture and said, "I saw the menu listed by my husband. I thought that I could use the menu to open a restaurant in Chang''an city to make money."


    "My husband is fighting on the battlefield. Sister Huang, my concubine and others have nothing to do at home."


    "In that case, why not open a restaurant?"


    "This restaurant not only makes wine, but also provides various dishes made of pork. At the beginning, we don''t mean pork, we just need to attract customers. "


    "When these dishes are made, they will be a sensation."


    Cao Jie''s eyes sparkled with wisdom, and said: "I don''t know the truth, and I don''t know anything about fighting. But if I have such a thing to do, I can pass the time, and my sisters can earn some personal money."


    "Don''t worry, my husband. I won''t show myself."


    "Zhou Fu is a partial general. He can be a chef. After he teaches his disciples, he will gradually quit."


    "At that time, look for another shopkeeper."


    "In this way, we can use the menu to set up the restaurant."


    Cao Jie looked forward and said: "in addition, people come and go in the restaurant, and you can also get some news, which can be regarded as a relief. I dare to ask my husband to judge. "

 Chapter 336

    Although Cao Jie has been in his own yard and has his own things to do, he doesn''t feel bored.


    But it''s boring after all.


    If there''s something to do, it''s fun.


    Most importantly, Cao Jie also hopes to take this opportunity to build an industrial chain little by little through the establishment of restaurants, from dishes to drinks, and the brewing of drinks. She is ambitious.


    That''s all. Cao Jie didn''t say it.


    Cao Jie hopes that he can do something, at least help Zhang Xiu in the side.


    Married from husband.


    She married Zhang Xiu, who is Zhang Xiu''s person, so she also hopes to help Zhang Xiu. Even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t need her help now, what if she really needs her help one day?


    Boom!!


    All of a sudden, dark clouds gathered in the sky, there was lightning and thunder.


    The whole sky suddenly darkened.


    Cao Jie looked up at the sky, and his brows suddenly wrinkled. Is this a call that never comes down?


    For a moment, Cao Jie''s heart sank.


    She was very nervous.


    Tick tick!!


    A moment later, it began to rain heavily in the sky, pouring down, soon wet the ground. Zhang Xiu, Huang Yueying and others are all in the pavilion, but they have no influence. Especially now the weather is a little hot, a rain down, take away the heat, suddenly cool down, people are also much more comfortable.


    Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand outside the pavilion, but she laughed and said, "if you have this idea, you will be the one. You let go and support your father when you come across something. "


    When Cao Jie heard this, he was very happy.


    A support, let Cao Jie heart moved quickly cry.


    Cao Jie said: "thank you, my husband!"


    Huang Yueying also laughed and said, "after sister Cao has finished the restaurant, we don''t have to be in the general''s house all day. If you have something to do, you can go to the restaurant. "


    Cao Jie said: "what my sister said is reasonable!"


    Zhou Fu stood aside. He didn''t think there was anything more about himself. Instead, he was happy.


    Because it''s reused.


    Cao Jie zhengse way: "husband, since want to make a restaurant, please husband give name."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it carefully, then said: "in the name of ''Jiahe''!"


    After hearing this, Cao Jie thought deeply and said, "thank you for your name!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "we can arrange the business of home and restaurant as soon as possible. I''ll give it to you while we''re still here. "


    "Thank you


    After hearing this, Cao Jie said thanks again.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the scene from pouring rain to drizzle, and said with a smile: "a family, don''t say two words, don''t be so polite."


    Cao Jie nodded yes.


    Zhang Xiu arranged things properly, so that Zhou Fu retired.


    In the evening, Zhang Xiu first chatted with Huang Yueying in Huang Yueying''s yard. When he went to bed at night, he left Huang Yueying''s yard and went to Cao Jie''s yard to have a rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    On this day, it was a little gray, and there was a light rain in the air.


    It doesn''t rain much and it''s cool.


    After getting up in the morning and doing morning exercises, Zhang Xiu breathes the air after the rain and feels comfortable all over. After his morning exercise, he had breakfast and went to the study first. Today, he didn''t present the government affairs.


    Zhang Xiu is OK for the moment.


    Idle Zhang Xiu, yelled on Huang Yuehua and Cao Jie together, ready to go out for a stroll. However, Tsai reminds us that Huang Yueying is only three or less than four months pregnant. It''s time for miscarriage, so it''s not suitable to walk around. Finally, Huang Yueying and Tsai stay in the house with Huang Yueying''s disappointed look, and Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie go out for a stroll.


    In the yard, Huang Yueying was wronged.


    Huang Yueying looked at her mother, Cai Shi, and said, "mother, you don''t mean that it''s been three months. Generally, there''s no problem. My husband wants to take me out. Why do you want to stop me? "


    Cai said: "silly girl, why fight for this moment''s happiness. If you think about it, there are so many people coming and going on the street, what will you do if someone meets you and affects the baby in your stomach? "


    "Today, children are the most important."


    "All you have to do is make sure it''s born safely."


    "That''s your mission."


    Cai said, "don''t think about the rest. Don''t think about what you shouldn''t do. It will be different when the baby is born. "


    "My mother is from the past. She knows that once she miscarries, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    "It won''t be easy for you to conceive again. Do you know that your aunt, after she married Liu Biao, has no future. She can only get close to Liu Cong, Liu Biao''s second son. She had a miscarriage


    "So far, I can''t conceive a child."


    Cai advised: "if we women don''t even have children in our life, it will be a failure. Silly girl, my mother is for you. Now I''m going to bear it. "After hearing this, Huang Yueying felt a little depressed.


    Cai continued: "the son-in-law is actually quite good. It''s also your blessing that you can marry him. Just fight for your first child and be a son. "


    Huang Yueying nodded her head, and she said nothing more.


    Cai accompanied Huang Yueying together. They chatted and talked about some interesting things.


    On the other side, after Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie left the general''s house, they did not take a carriage, but walked on foot and strolled in the street.


    Holding an umbrella together, walking in the rain is also a unique style.


    Cao Jie''s heart is full of joy.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie are ahead, while Deng Zhan is not far behind. Deng Zhan was a coach driver, with a special driver, so that Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie could ride at any time.


    Two people walk along the street, time is not long, it has reached the most prosperous stage.


    Despite the drizzle, the streets are still full of people. Many young people in white robes and silk scarves come and go on the streets, and some people who write letters set up stalls.


    There are also a lot of hawkers on the street.


    Zhang Xiu chooses a jade pendant for Cao Jie and Huang Yueying and gives it to Deng Zhan in the rear, who throws it into the carriage.


    Along the way, stop and go all the way.


    When Zhang Xiu was walking and stopping, he saw a middle-aged man sitting beside the street in front of him.


    The man was dressed in coarse linen and looked indifferent.


    There was a booth in front of him, where he wrote letters and drew portraits for others.


    But no one came in front of him.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly had an idea in her heart. She went forward and said with a smile, "how is your painting skill?"


    "Fair!" he said


    Zhang xiudao said: "my wife and I are standing in the rain with an umbrella. After you have a look, can you draw it?"


    "Yes


    The middle-aged man replied again.


    Zhang Xiu laughed, and Cao Jie in the rain umbrella, stood for a while, said: "see clearly?"


    The middle-aged man looked at Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie carefully for a long time. Finally, he closed his eyes and thought for a moment. He said to Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie, "please sit down. I''ll start now. I can finish it in two quarters of an hour at most."


    "Don''t worry."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and sat down with Cao Jie.


    At the moment, Cao Jie is happy in her heart. For her, such a simple thing, he also feels extremely rich in his heart, and thinks it''s good to be with Zhang Xiu.


    After they sat down, Deng Zhan stopped not far away.


    When the middle-aged man paints, he looks attentive, writes quickly, and doesn''t stop at all. It seems that everything in the whole picture clearly emerges in his mind, without any discomfort.


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes, and her face also had a look of approval.


    Along the way, he also saw several portrait painters, but none of them was like the middle-aged people in front of him. He just looked at them, because the other painters had to sit still for the sake of painting.


    This man is not simple!


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, but a trace of appreciation.

 Chapter 337

    Zhang Xiu had a tentative mind. She wanted to see if the people in front of her could do two things at the same time. When she was painting, she could chat at the same time. She said, "how long have you been in Chang''an, sir? I often hang out in this street. This is the first time I see you."


    Cao Jie was on the side, laughing in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu is always so busy that she has no time to hang out.


    That''s clearly on purpose.


    The middle-aged man laughed and kept writing. He said: "I''m really here for the first time. Because when I first came to Chang''an, I wanted to rent a house, and I didn''t have much money on me, so I came to set up a stall and make some money to subsidize my family. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "where is your husband from?"


    The middle-aged man said with a smile: "I''m from Le''an County of Qingzhou. Before that, because of the chaos in Qingzhou, I went to Liaodong for refuge."


    As soon as he spoke, the middle-aged man opened his voice. He was very familiar with himself and said with a smile, "don''t hide it from me, young master. When I was in Liaodong, the weather in Liaodong was really bitter and cold. Ordinary people can''t bear it."


    "I''ve been in Liaodong for several years, and this person feels old for several years."


    "Young master, you don''t think I''m in a hurry. I look like I''m almost forty years old. In fact, I''m only twenty-nine now, and I''m not thirty."


    The middle-aged people speak with a smile.


    His speech was very funny. When Cao Jie heard it, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the middle-aged man''s words, he also said: "speaking of Liaodong, I know something about it. It is said that there are Guan Ning and Bing yuan in Liaodong. Both of them are great Confucians and have the spirit of learning. "


    When the middle-aged man heard Zhang Xiu mention Guan Ning and Bing yuan, he laughed and said, "young master, how about an exaggerated joke?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Middle aged humanitarian: "when I took refuge in the north, I was with Guan Ning and Bing yuan. When I was in Qingzhou, my teacher was Zheng Xuan, a disciple of Zheng Shi. "


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and joking, and said: "since Mr. Zheng is a disciple of everyone, how dare you ask Mr. Gao''s name? Let''s hear it. Let me go out and show off. There are Zheng''s disciples to paint for me today. "


    Middle aged humanity: "in xiaguoyuan!"


    Zhang Xiu felt that Guoyuan was Zheng Xuan''s disciple, and he was Zheng Xuan''s favorite disciple.


    In history, Guoyuan first took refuge in Liaodong with Guan Ning and Bing yuan, then returned to the Central Plains to work for Cao Cao, and finally became an important member of the imperial court.


    Zheng Xuan, a Confucian master in the late Han Dynasty, was not disrespectful. Even if such Confucian masters as Cai Yong and Wang Yun were in front of Zheng Xuan, they were much worse.


    Zheng Xuan studied from Ma Rong. He mainly studied the ancient classics and adopted the theory of modern classics. He wrote Confucian classics all over the world, which made the study of classics enter the era of little unification in the late Han Dynasty.


    Zheng Xuan was a master of Confucian classics in the late Han Dynasty.


    Any Confucian school, in front of Zheng Xuan, must respect him.


    Guoyuan is indeed a disciple of Zheng Xuan.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised that Guoyuan had come to Chang''an from Liaodong, but her face didn''t show anything. She said with a smile: "since you are the disciple of the Zheng family, as long as you play the name of the Zheng family, why do you need to make a living by painting for others?"


    Guoyuan was not impatient and said, "it''s no shame to draw a portrait for someone. It''s good to make a living before you find something to do. As for me being a disciple of master Zheng, it''s just a fact, but it''s not the reason why I used to show off. I only need to know about it. Of course, by the way, I''ll tell you some jokes in front of you. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "I believe you!"


    Guoyuan said, "Mr. Xie believes it."


    Zhang Xiu said: "when I believe you, it''s worth your thanks?"


    Guoyuan shrugged his shoulders and said: "in this troubled time, the basic faith has long been lost. If you believe me, it''s good advice. As the saying goes, a good word is warm in winter. After listening to the words of the young master, I feel warm in my heart. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles when she hears the words.


    This person is very funny.


    This man is interesting.


    Zhang Xiu is chatting with Guoyuan, but time goes by. Two quarters of an hour later, Guoyuan''s painting has been finished. The portraits of Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie are vividly on the paper, which makes people like them at a glance.


    Under the drizzle, the sky is gray, two people nestle together to support an umbrella, the artistic conception is extremely beautiful.


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, she gave it to Cao Jie and asked, "Mr. Guoyuan, how much is this painting?"


    Guoyuan said with a smile: "only one hundred dollars."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. As soon as she waved, Deng Zhan immediately went forward to pay. After a hundred dollars entered Guoyuan''s hands, Guoyuan took out another twenty dollars to Zhang Xiu, and said with a smile, "I can talk with you. The twenty dollars are discounted. Next time, welcome to come again. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed when she heard the words.Guoyuan is interesting.


    Since it''s a discount, it turns out that it''s cash back after receiving money. Such a discount is really interesting.


    How can Mr. Zhang Yuan send a discount to our country


    Guoyuan said: "I can''t get it!"


    For the young master in front of him, Guoyuan looks very agreeable. He is a very optimistic person. It''s OK for the agreeable person to chat. If he doesn''t like the person, he will say it even if he doesn''t like him.


    This is Guoyuan''s temperament.


    It''s magnificent.


    After Zhang Xiu took over the brush and Xuan paper, Deng Zhan immediately stepped forward, like a dog leg, quickly bent down and straightened his back, so that Zhang Xiu could spread Xuan paper.


    This scene, let Guoyuan brow up.


    This style is different from ordinary people.


    I''m afraid the young man in front of me is not a simple one.


    Guoyuan speculated in his heart.


    After spreading rice paper, Zhang Xiu quickly wrote: "there are great talents in Guoyuan, and Xu Shu will receive them on his behalf - Zhang Xiu!"


    It''s only 13 words, and it''s hard to understand.


    After writing this line, Zhang Xiu folded the rice paper in half, then handed it to Guoyuan and said with a smile, "Sir, this is what I gave you. Goodbye!"


    With that, Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie leave with an umbrella.


    Deng Zhan''s carriage was still far behind Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie.


    Guoyuan looks at Zhang Xiu''s back. He is a little absent-minded. The young man''s speech and behavior are extraordinary. He is relaxed and has an extraordinary bearing.


    After Zhang left, Guoyuan opened the folded rice paper.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu''s words, his eyebrows rose, a look of shock, and a look of admiration rose on his face. Guoyuan is also a person who practices calligraphy since he was a child. His handwriting is quite good. But in front of Zhang Xiu''s handwriting, he was ashamed of himself.


    When Guoyuan finished reading, he saw the last signature of Zhang Xiu and stood up.


    He was already surprised.


    Zhang Xiu!


    The young man just now turned out to be Zhang Xiu.


    Guoyuan doesn''t doubt it, because Zhang Xiu''s style naturally shows extraordinary bearing.


    It is impossible for such a person to cheat.


    The key is Zhang Xiu''s word, which is really powerful.


    "Gudong!"


    Guoyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, with a smile on his face. The next moment, he burst out laughing again with joy. He looked at the direction of Zhang Xiu''s departure, folded his hands and bowed to her back.


    Guoyuan knew he was lucky.


    Today, I set up a stall to earn a little money. Unexpectedly, I met Zhang Xiu.


    It''s lucky.


    Guoyuan was very happy. He got Zhang Xiu''s note and knew that there must be something else for Zhang Xiu, so he did it specially. Guoyuan also knows something about the situation under Zhang Xiu''s command. He knows that Zhang Xiu is the most important person in Zhang Xiu''s command. He is the most powerful person in charge of the promotion and scheduling of officials under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Guoyuan put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, put everything in the back basket, immediately picked up the back basket, and was ready to go to the general''s house. Just as he started to carry it, he suddenly threw away the back basket and strode toward the general''s house with the rice paper presented by Zhang Xiu in his hand.


    He doesn''t need to carry the basket.


    Since then, he has entered Zhang Xiu''s field of vision.

 Chapter 338

    Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie strolled around the city with high leisure. Towards noon, he was far away from the general''s house. Instead of going home for dinner, he found a nearby restaurant to have dinner.


    In the afternoon, it was still drizzling. Misty rain, cool weather, particularly comfortable. Zhang Xiu and Cao Jie strolled for more than an hour and bought countless items before returning.


    Back at home, Zhang Xiu gives Huang Yueying the jade pendant she bought and the rest of her gifts. Huang Yueying, who was originally in a depressed mood, smiles again when she sees the gift selected by Zhang Xiu.


    For a moment, the depression was gone.


    Huang Yueying''s temperament is simple.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take her out, but when she came back with a gift, she became happy.


    Because Zhang Xiu is thinking about her.


    Zhang Xiu accompanied Huang Yueying for a while, then went back to her study and arranged for someone to ask about Guoyuan.


    Guoyuan was still in the Yamen of the Ministry of officials, and was specially received by Xu Shu.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for Xu Shu and Guoyuan to come. When they entered the study, they bowed to each other and sat down. Xu Shu took the lead in saying, "my Lord, I''ve learned a lot from talking with Mr. Guoyuan. Mr. Guoyuan has great insight and talent. "


    He saw Zhang Xiu''s letter, so he personally received Guoyuan. Xu YuanHou also thinks that he has outstanding ability to talk with Shu Yuan. In addition, Guoyuan was Zheng Xuan''s disciple, and his identity narrowed the distance between Xu Shu and Guoyuan.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Yuan Zhi all recognized Guoyuan, so Guoyuan is no problem."


    Xu Shu said: "this is the Lord''s wise eye like a torch."


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, the voice of a servant came from outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    The door creaked, and the attendant entered the study, reporting: "general, Mr. Duji, I''d like to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Even if Xu Shu and guoyuandang ask to avoid suspicion, Zhang Xiu waves her hand to stop them. No matter Xu Shu or Guoyuan, they are all the people Zhang Xiu relies on. There is no need to avoid suspicion.


    Soon, Du Ji entered the study.


    Du Ji is now in office as Beijing Zhaoyin. Although he has just taken office, he shows his familiarity with government affairs as soon as he takes office. In particular, Du Ji himself came up from the bottom and was familiar with all kinds of government affairs in jingzhaoyin mansion.


    You can''t hide things from him.


    Du Ji lived and ate in jingzhaoyin mansion, and did not rest in the evening. He handled official business by holding a candle and learned about Chang''an and even Jingzhao area all night. As soon as he encountered problems, he immediately changed the decree. Within one day, Du Ji issued several orders to adjust the mistakes in Jingzhao area.


    This is Du Ji''s attitude.


    To do it, we must do it well.


    We can''t live up to Zhang Xiu''s trust, let alone let her down.


    After Duji stood still, he arched his hand and said, "I''m a humble Duji. I''d like to meet you. This time I visited my Lord. I found that in the past month, thousands of scholars poured into Chang''an, and countless people entered Chang''an. "


    "In Chang''an City, prices are rising, so are rents."


    "It''s not easy for people to live in it."


    "I think this is not conducive to the long-term development of Chang''an. In particular, after the rise of prices in Chang''an, many poor scholars are hard to get a foothold, which is not conducive to the Lord''s recruitment of talents. "


    "If you are a son of a noble family, you don''t worry about money. But it''s not easy for the poor disciples to study. They don''t have any extra money and they live in poverty. "


    "It''s not easy for them to live in Chang''an."


    "In the cold, there are great talents."


    "If we can leave the poor scholars to serve the Lord, it will be of great help to the governance of the Lord. In order to solve the current situation, it is suggested that the Ministry of household should take the lead and give some money to the poor scholars in Chang''an. In addition, I sincerely ask you to open warehouses and release grain to curb rising grain prices. "


    Dugi made his request.


    Du Ji was constantly adjusting the government affairs and decrees in Beijing and Zhaoqing to bring order out of chaos. At the same time, Du Ji was also observing the situation in Chang''an area. When he found something, he found Zhang Xiu, hoping to solve the problem.


    If we do not seek to solve the problem once and for all, we can at least do a little bit.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Du Ji''s words, she turned her mind and solicited scholars. In fact, it was the process of establishing the image of courteous and virtuous corporal.


    Zhang Xiu is a courteous corporal.


    Only in this way can more talents come to join us.


    More talents will be of great benefit to Zhang Xiu''s competition for the Central Plains and the world.


    In the early period of the Three Kingdoms, whether it was the state of Wei, or the state of Shu and the state of Wu, they were all very powerful. However, in the later period, the gap between the three countries became larger and larger, and eventually both Wu and Shu could not resist the attack of Wei.


    A large part of the reason is actually the decline of talents in the two countries.


    With the death of Zhuge Liang, Ma Liang, Jiang Wan, Li Yan, Lu Su, Lu Meng and Lu Xun, it is normal for the state of Shu and Wu to lose their talents and strength.


    Zhang Xiu knows the importance of talents, to attract talents, retain talents, but also to cultivate talents.Zhang Xiu thought about it and had an idea. However, he did not put forward his own decision. He looked at Guoyuan and asked, "Guoyuan, what do you think of the rise of Changan''s food prices and the increase of the living costs of scholars?"


    Kuoyuan shook his sleeve and replied, "General Zhang, I think it''s not a long-term solution to solve these problems by simply giving money to the scholars


    "First, there are more and more taxis gathering in Chang''an. Do every taxi give money?"


    "People are selfish."


    "People''s psychology is uneven regardless of their number. Once a scholar doesn''t get it, maybe he has a reason not to get it, but once it''s publicized, it''s just that a drop of ink will fall into the VAT and dye a large vat of water black, which is not good for the general. "


    "So the strategy of the relief workers is suitable in the short term."


    Guoyuan''s eyes were calm. He went a lot of places and had insight. He put forward the problem mentioned by Du Ji.


    Du Ji did not speak.


    He asked Zhang Xiu to report the situation of Chang''an Shizi in order to solve the problem. His proposal may not be the best, it may not be the most appropriate, and he hopes to have a better solution.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s not suitable for the relief workers. What do you think is the most suitable way?"


    Guoyuan replied: "I think the best way is to solve the problem of their living."


    "That''s enough!"


    "In Chang''an, the war led to the vacancy of many houses. After general Zhang took charge of Chang''an, he must have a lot of land deeds in his hands. "


    "We can take out quite a lot of houses and rent them to taxis entering Chang''an at a very low price."


    "This alone can greatly reduce the burden of the scholars, and also reflects the general''s attention to the scholars. Of course, when they leave Chang''an, or when they become officials, they return their houses. "


    Guoyuan said: "of course, no one can pretend to be a scholar."


    "Those who can be selected must be talents."


    "In this respect, the Ministry of official affairs should take the lead in assessing every scholar and carefully selecting them, so as not to confuse them."


    "Only in this way can talents be selected."


    "There is no lack of money in the aristocratic family. It is the poor family who needs the support of the general. It''s these people that the general wants to support and attract everyone to Chang''an. "


    Guoyuan said: "as for the rising price, it can only be controlled by the government. We only need to increase the supply of grain to curb the rising grain prices and ensure the stability of grain prices. When the price of grain rises, the supply of grain will be increased. If there is too much grain, you can buy it in large quantities. "


    After hearing this, Du Ji had a look of surprise on his face.


    What Guoyuan said is very operational.


    Du Jide admitted that the rent was a big expense, which solved the problem of scholars'' living and, to a considerable extent, reduced their difficulties.


    Xu Shu praised: "Lord, what Guoyuan said is true. His proposal, I agree with it. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, said: "to buy horse bone, to leave for our taxi, to provide a place to live, is one aspect, but not enough."


    Guoyuan''s eyes were serious and asked, "General Zhang thinks, how can we solve this problem?"

 Chapter 339

    The middle finger of Zhang Xiu''s right hand gently knocked on the table and said with a smile: "to completely solve this matter and achieve the effect of buying horse bone, I think there are three things to do."


    "The first is what Du Ji mentioned."


    "As long as the taxi is approved by the Ministry of official affairs, the government will give the most basic living allowance every month within one year from the date of approval, so as to ensure that it can live on."


    "Second, it is mentioned by Guoyuan."


    "All taxis approved by the Ministry of official affairs shall be arranged by the government to live in from the date of approval. No rental fee will be charged for one year. After one year, the rent will be charged at the market price. "


    "Third, establish a talent market."


    "Led by Jing Zhaoyin, we will set up a" talent market. ". The role of the talent market is to count the organizations that need to employ people in Chang''an and post them at the entrance of the talent market in the form of notices so that everyone can know. "


    Zhang Xiu talked with no impatience and said: "this is the first time that the talent market has been established. In the early stage, we can count the employment situation from the petty officials in the talent market to the restaurants and restaurants in Chang''an, as well as the Yamen. "


    "So, make sure it works."


    "Everything is on the right track, and the talent market has credibility. After people are convinced, restaurants and restaurants that need to employ people will take the initiative to issue notices in the talent market."


    "In this way, the recruiters will have a place to recruit and the job seekers will have a place to work."


    "After the success of Jingzhao area, it will be popularized all over the country."


    Zhang Xiu talked about it and put forward his arrangement.


    For Zhang Xiu, it''s not complicated. The general direction is easy to decide. Although there must be such and such things when it comes to implementation, it will always develop in a good direction when it is formulated as a whole.


    When Du Ji heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was filled with emotion. Similarly, Du Ji''s practice of using money to provide relief to scholars will form a bottomless pit, which is prone to mistakes. Because more and more taxis came, in the end, it was a great burden on Zhang Xiu''s finance.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement is much more reasonable. With the assessment of the Ministry of official affairs and only one year as the time limit, a lot of expenses have been saved, and it will not form the beginning.


    If a scholar can''t find the right thing to settle down in Chang''an within a year, he is not a talent.


    For the most part, at least.


    Du Ji was convinced and said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Guoyuan''s expression is solemn, pondering over the scheme proposed by Zhang Xiu, but also with deep emotion. Although Zhang Xiu is young, her work is not at all childish, but more sophisticated.


    There is no rent for one year, and it will be very attractive to the poor taxi. In addition, the living allowance in the first article is enough to make countless scholars interested.


    What Guoyuan admired most about Zhang Xiu was that Zhang Xiu put forward the third plan.


    In Guoyuan''s view, although it is difficult for the talent market to form a scale in a short period of time, after a long time and on the right track, there is no need for a trustee to find something to do, just go to the talent market.


    It''s more attractive.


    Moreover, it benefits countless people.


    Guoyuan''s servant, Zheng Xuan, is a good person to get along with. But in Guoyuan''s bones, he is also quite proud. In front of Zhang Xiu, he is convinced by Zhang Xiu.


    Guoyuan arched his hand and said, "I admire the wisdom of General Zhang."


    Xu Shu''s comments on Zhang Xiu have long been familiar with. Many of Zhang Xiu''s arrangements are very delicate.


    He''s used to it.


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes fell on Xu Shu and said, "Xu Shu, about the assessment of scholars, we will no longer set up a recruitment hall, but set up a separate assessment department. The official department in charge of you should come up with a plan as soon as possible. Who is in charge, how to operate the specific process, and implement it as soon as possible without delay. "


    "I''ll do it


    Xu Shu should bow his hand.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "how much living allowance should each scholar pay after passing the examination. In this regard, you should discuss with Liu Ba and come up with a specific plan for my approval. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu answered again.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Du Ji and said, "Du Ji, the establishment of the talent market, you choose people from the government of Beijing Zhaoyin. In a short period of time, it is necessary to do it. Although everything is difficult at the beginning, it will be much easier as long as it is on a regular basis. "


    Du Ji said: "please don''t worry, my Lord. I will finish my humble job as soon as possible."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes finally fell on Guoyuan.


    Although Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything to attract Guoyuan, and even Guoyuan didn''t formally worship Zhang Xiu, Guoyuan accepted Zhang Xiu''s letter and came to the general''s house, which proved Guoyuan''s idea.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Guoyuan!"


    "Yes


    Guoyuan stood up and answered.


    Zhang xiudao said: "you are knowledgeable, experienced, calm and experienced. I''ve ordered you to be the commander of the general''s mansion and take full charge of the construction, repair and renovation of the rental house.""In today''s Chang''an City, there are many homestead deeds, all in my hands."


    "You go to Xu Shu, collect all the land deeds, and select a suitable house for renovation and repair as a house to lease to the scholars."


    "If it''s not enough, build it again."


    "For the people who need to build and rest, you can directly find Li Yan of the Ministry of work; for the money you need, you can directly find Liu Ba of the Ministry of household. This matter should be arranged as soon as possible, and the effect should be achieved as soon as possible. "


    "I''ll do it


    Guoyuan arched his hand and said, "please don''t worry, my Lord. I will do my best to live up to my Lord''s high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Shu again and said, "Yuanzhi, you come to deal with Guoyuan''s office and the corresponding residence."


    "I''ll do it


    Xu Shu should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said: "today''s Chang''an is full of waste, and there are many things to do. We should deal with everything as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand again, and everyone got up to say goodbye. Zhang Xiu looks at Guoyuan, Xushu and Duji''s back as they leave. She also looks forward to it. Both Du Ji and Guoyuan are capable and practical people.


    Zhang Xiu is looking forward to these people.


    ¡­¡­


    Chang''an City, south of the city.


    A rather luxurious house for you.


    In the study.


    A middle-aged man in his late 40s, dressed in a blue robe and a long crown, was reading a book. He is tall, with angular cheeks, slightly narrow eyebrows and sharp eyebrows, which gives people a very sharp feeling.


    His name is Xu you.


    He was a confidant of Yuan Shao.


    Xu you, a native of Nanyang, has been living in Luoyang since he was a child. He is a close friend with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Because Xu you and Yuan Shao are good friends, Xu you has a detached status under Yuan Shao''s command, and has two identities of Yuan Shao''s friend and counselor.


    It is Xu you''s suggestion to plan to capture Hongnong county.


    After Zhang Xiu defeated Li Xi and Guo Si and annexed Jingzhao and youfufeng, the news spread to Yuan Shao. At that time, Yuan Shao also had the feeling that Zhang Xiu was a threat.


    Therefore, the counselors were called to discuss.


    According to the information gathered by all parties, Xu you, in particular, knew that Duan was interested in the court and that Duan had an affair with Cao Cao, so he decided that Duan might send troops.


    Xu you suggested that Yuan Shao join forces to win Hongnong county. Yuan Shao adopted Xu you''s suggestion and sent Xu you to Hanoi prefecture to persuade Zhang Yang to send troops. After Duan Lu sent troops, Yan Liang and Sui Gu sent troops to Hongnong and captured the whole Hongnong Prefecture.


    Xu you is not satisfied with a Hongnong county.


    Yan Liang stayed in Hongnong County, while Xu you quietly arrived in Chang''an, ready to find out the situation of Chang''an, thus creating chaos for Zhang Xiu, and even further seizing the whole Chang''an and even the Jingzhao area.


    This is Xu you''s plan.


    Xu you has just arrived in Chang''an. Decent people ask for information, but he still doesn''t know about Chang''an.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the study.


    A samurai in black entered and bowed to Xu you, reporting: "Sir, the general situation of Chang''an has been found out. Please have a look!"


    With that, the warrior handed the letter.


    Xu you took it in his hand and quickly read it. He read the contents of the letter, reading ten lines at a glance and skimming down quickly. When he saw that Zhang Xiu defeated Han Sui and Ma Teng, captured Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, and captured Yan Xing, he frowned.


    Zhang Xiu is really not simple.


    Ma Teng and Han Sui have been in Liangzhou for many years, but they are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals.


    Xu you continued to look down.


    When he saw that the people of Chang''an praised Zhang Xiu and supported her, his face was dignified.


    Zhang Xiu is not a simple person.


    The army has combat power!


    The people support it again!


    Such a person has a firm foundation and is not easy to deal with.

 Chapter 340

    Xu you continued to look down and read all the news quickly. At this time, Xu you''s face became very dignified, and he didn''t feel relaxed any more.


    Chang''an under the rule of Zhang Xiu is as solid as gold. It is not easy for him to win Chang''an and defeat Zhang Xiu.


    How to cut in?


    Xu you''s eyes are shining with wisdom and thinking about the strategy to break the situation.


    Now that he has come to Chang''an, he must break the current situation. Otherwise, it is impossible for him to let Yan Liang enter Chang''an.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the study.


    Not long after, a warrior in black entered and reported: "Sir, Ye Qing asked to see you."


    Ye Qing was born in his early 30s as a taxi from a poor family. His family was in poor condition. He left Chang''an for refuge in the early years, and returned to Chang''an after Zhang Xiu issued a recruitment order.


    He had great ambition and few talents. He didn''t pass the examination of the Ministry of officials and didn''t go to the local office.


    When Xu you arrived in Chang''an, he met Ye Qing and took it for his own use. Ye Qing knows that Xu you is a member of Yuan Shao. He is eager to submit to Yuan Shao and is willing to work for Xu you.


    Xu you said, "please!"


    The samurai in black went to inform Xu you. At this time, Xu you''s mind became active. During this period, Zhang Xiu is most proud of recruiting countless taxis.


    Chang''an, as a whole, seems to be the most yearning place for scholars in the world. After all, taxis from Chang''an will be appointed according to their abilities after being assessed by Zhang Xiu''s officials.


    It was Zhang Xiu who first entered Guanzhong that needed countless taxis to enrich the officialdom and let many poor scholars show their strong points. That''s why countless taxis went to Guanzhong.


    Today''s Chang''an, scholars gathered, the style of writing, is the proud place of Zhang Xiu. However, in Xu you''s view, Zhang Xiu''s foundation is not deep enough, and his foundation is too shallow. To recruit scholars, we have to offer better conditions, otherwise there will be no attraction.


    If the plan of recruiting scholars is destroyed, it will make it difficult for Zhang Xiu to recruit talents on a large scale. Xu you had a general idea in his mind. After he had a general direction, he began to plan in this aspect.


    Planning, rapid prototyping.


    Not long, Ye Qing entered the study.


    Ye Qing is in his early 30s. Although he was born in a poor family, his lips are thin and his eyes are long and narrow, which makes him mean. He saw Xu you with a smile on his face and a flattering look. He bowed his body and said, "little Ye Qing, I''ve met Mr. Xu."


    Xu you asked, "what happened to the poor family you managed recently?"


    The family of the poor is an organization founded by Xu you with Ye Qing''s support. Under the guise of guiding the poor scholars, it has gathered a large number of poor scholars and is very popular.


    Ye Qing is the chief.


    In his humble home, Ye Qing, with the help of Xu you''s advice, kept pouring chicken soup to the scholars, so that the taxis in trouble could regain their spirits. However, many scholars emerged from the humble home and eventually became officials.


    Hanqing''s family is so loved by many scholars.


    In the eyes of many taxis, Ye Qing and Xu you are both guiding lights.


    Ye Qing said slowly: "tell me, there are more than 300 people in the humble family of villains. Every other day, I call a taxi from a poor family to reason with them. In addition, every three days, adults go to the stage in person to explain the way of life and work for scholars. Nowadays, people in poor families are very popular. "


    Xu you nodded.


    Ye Qing''s ability is mediocre, but Xu you has insight and ability. Under the bewitching of Xu you, countless poor scholars were affected, as if under the guidance of Xu you, they got the true meaning of life, no longer thought they were useless, and worked hard.


    Xu you did instruct many people.


    It is precisely in this way that scholars support it. More than 300 scholars gather in poor families, which is a big force.


    Ye Qing continued: "my Lord, there is another thing that happened today, which has a great impact on us."


    Xu you said, "what''s the matter?"


    Ye Qing replied: "the general''s office has put up a notice that there will be a unified assessment for those who have not yet become an official and have not found anything to do as a taxi. As long as they pass the assessment of the government, the government will provide accommodation in a unified way and give them a certain monthly living allowance. "


    "In addition, the jingzhaoyin government also issued a notice."


    "In the near future, the government of Beijing Zhaoyin will set up a separate organization called the talent market to issue employment notices in the talent market, so that countless taxis and the rest of the people can find something to do."


    "Two pieces of news, both spread."


    "Many scholars in our poor family are already excited and ready to have a try."


    In Ye Qing''s eyes, there is a touch of worry.


    Brush!


    When Xu you heard the speech, his face changed greatly.


    In Xu you''s opinion, the two notices that Zhang Xiu just put up are just a drop in the bucket for him. The first notice alone is a good thing to say, but the second notice shows that with the existence of the talent market, the poor family will lose its function.The government has to come forward to guide the scholars. What else can he guide?


    The government has to help Shizi. What else can he help?


    Xu you was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "damn Zhang Xiu, as soon as I made some achievements, as soon as the poor family had an influence, he issued a notice, which is tantamount to destroying all my efforts."


    Ye Qing was optimistic, and said: "my Lord, although it has an impact, it is not too big. Even if there is a talent market, there are countless poor scholars in Chang''an City who need our guidance. Our scale will not decrease


    "Self deception


    Xu you snorted and said in a deep voice: "in the current situation, if we do not take action, then the poor family will gradually decline and eventually become unknown."


    "Do you really think that poor families are powerful enough to win the support of countless people?"


    "It''s stupid!"


    "The reason why poor families are supported now is that there are countless people who don''t know what to do and can''t find anything to do. However, the government has come forward to assess the situation in person, and has also issued employment notices. What influence does the poor family have? "


    Xu you a pair of hate iron not steel appearance, said: "even if we can guide, can compare with the government?"


    "Yes, yes!"


    Ye Qing in front of Xu you, atmosphere son dare not come out, trembling.


    Xu you gave him everything.


    Once Xu you gets angry, everything he gets right now may be lost.


    Xu you''s eyes were rolling and thinking quickly. After a while, he had a plan in his mind. Previously, he came up with an idea, but now, he has changed his mind temporarily.


    Xu you looked at Ye Qing and said, "the government has increased its efforts to attract scholars. While the poor family still has influence, you can go to the general''s house and ask Zhang Xiu to come to the poor family."


    "This is our last chance."


    "As long as Zhang Xiu comes to the poor family, the influence of the poor family will go to a higher level. At the end of Hanqing''s career, you will gain more influence


    Xu you bewitched: "when it''s over, you can come back to Jizhou with me and work under the Lord''s command. You can also have the merit of persuading people, so you won''t gossip."


    "Yes, thank you very much."


    Ye Qing first said thanks, and then said, "it''s just a small person who makes light of his words. I''m afraid it''s not easy to see Zhang Xiu. What''s more, it''s not easy to invite Zhang Xiu to a poor family. "


    Xu you scolded: "if you can''t do this well, what''s the use of asking you? Ye Qing, your future depends on whether you are willing to do something. "


    After hearing this, Ye Qing''s face changed again and again.


    After half a sound, Ye Qing said: "please rest assured, I will finish it."


    Xu you nodded his head and said, "work hard. When Zhang Xiu comes to the poor family, you will be in charge. You will show your face. You go to see Zhang Xiu and set the time for tomorrow morning at midnight, where the poor family usually gather. When you are successful, I will arrange for someone to inform all the scholars of the poor family. "


    "Here it is


    Ye Qing immediately responded.


    Xu you waved his hand and said, "go!"


    "Goodbye, villain."


    With a flattering smile on her face, Ye Qing left quickly.


    Xu you looks at the back of Ye Qing''s leaving, but there is a cold color in his eyes. For him, Ye Qing''s ability is just a chess piece, which has no value.


    In Xu you''s mind, he never thought about taking Ye Qing back to Jizhou.

 Chapter 341

    After leaving Xu you''s house, Ye Qing went straight back to his residence. Nowadays, Ye Qing lives in a luxurious house with countless maidservants and eight concubines.


    Before January, Ye Qing was hungry and worried about three meals a day.


    Now, it''s extravagant.


    Sitting in the study, Ye Qing thinks about how to invite Zhang Xiu.


    If he is defeated, he will not be able to complete Xu you''s task and follow Xu you to Jizhou. In particular, other money is provided by Xu you. Once the source of his money is cut off, he can hardly maintain his present life.


    From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality is difficult. Today''s Ye Qing, already used to luxury life, let him return to once, he simply can''t do.


    He has to finish the task.


    After thinking about it for a long time, Ye Qing got up and went to the backyard. He put on a big shirt with a long crown and dressed himself up bravely.


    Then, ye Qingcai left the house.


    Ye Qing took the carriage and went straight to the general''s house. He handed over the invitation and said, "please inform general Zhang. Ye Qing, the poor family, wants to see you."


    After that, he took out a bag of money from his sleeve and quietly handed it to the porter.


    The porter refused.


    Nowadays, the Porter works in the general''s office, but his salary is not low. It''s not cost-effective if it''s disposed of because it''s collected some money.


    The porter took the letter and turned to deliver it. It wasn''t long before the porter came to the study and handed Zhang Xiu the post presented by Ye Qing. He reported: "general, there''s a man from outside the house who calls himself a poor family. Ye Qing asks to see him."


    Zhang Xiu opened the invitation.


    In the post, Ye Qing took the lead in explaining the situation of the poor family.


    In the end, it''s the matter of meeting.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to see the poor family. The structure of the poor family is actually similar to that of the training institutions of later generations, which are specialized in guiding taxis that have no way out. However, Zhang Xiu was surprised that the poor family could reach hundreds of people.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    A soldier enters, Zhang Xiu orders: "go to inform Wang Yue, let him come."


    "Here it is


    The soldier went to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the porter and said, "please go to the hall and let him wait."


    "Here it is


    The porter has to give orders. Let''s go down.


    Zhang Xiu always knows herself and the other when she does things. Especially when it comes to a poor family with hundreds of people, he didn''t meet immediately. Instead, he got to know what to do and what attitude to take.


    Soon, Wang Yue entered the study and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao: "Wang Yue, do you know the poor family?"


    Wang Yue said: "I don''t know my humble position."


    Today''s Wang Yue, in charge of the royal guards, is Zhang Xiu''s intelligence chief. Wang Yue constantly develops the eye liner of Jinyi Wei. Today, there are wind sways grass in the city. He knows all about it.


    Hundreds of people gathered in the poor family, which attracted Wang Yue''s attention.


    Wang Yue continued: "the founder of the humble family is Ye Qing, who is from Chang''an. When Chang''an was in turmoil, he left Chang''an for refuge and returned to Chang''an not long ago. "


    "What the royal guards have found out is that Ye Qing was born in a poor family, and he was very poor. But after returning to Chang''an this time, he bought a big house and married several concubines one after another, leading a luxurious life. "


    "The most suspicious thing is that Ye Qing goes to a house in the south of the city from time to time."


    "According to the humble speculation, there may be someone behind him," Wang said


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said, "so, Ye Qing''s humble family has an ulterior motive?"


    Wang Yue shook his head and said, "it''s not known for the moment whether Ye Qing is plotting against the law. Since Ye Qing''s appearance, there has been no bad deeds in the poor family. On the contrary, it has inspired countless scholars and guided many scholars into their official career. For the rest, I haven''t inquired about it yet. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how is Ye Qing?"


    Wang Yue replied: "on the surface, he is a man who thinks for the sake of scholars. In fact, he is rather mean, greedy and lustful, and not a good man. It''s not easy to find out the people behind him. I haven''t found out the situation for the time being. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "the royal guards have done a good job. They need to be aware of Chang''an and be alert."


    Wang Yue said, "my Lord is wrong."


    Zhang Xiu got up and went out, saying: "come on, follow me to meet the founder of this poor family. Now, he went to the general''s house and asked to see the general. "


    Wang Yue followed Zhang Xiu and went straight to the hall.


    In the hall, Ye Qing stands with a bow.


    Ye Qing did not stand in the hall, but stood at the door of the hall, ready to meet Zhang Xiu. This is the pose of Ye Qing, let Zhang Xiu see his sincere attitude.


    Ye Qing''s heart is actually a little nervous. What if Zhang Xiu doesn''t agree to go to a poor family?What should he do?


    Thinking of being scolded by Xu you, Ye Qing has more worries in her heart. However, Ye Qing still gives himself encouragement, hoping that he can achieve success and will not be severely criticized by Xu you.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    After hearing this, Ye Qing''s eyes brightened, and he became excited. He quickly straightened his clothes and stood with a slight bow. Not long after, in Ye Qing''s eyes, a young man strode forward.


    Knowing that Zhang Xiu was young, Ye Qing quickly saluted and said, "Cao min Ye Qing, meet general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    "General Xie!"


    Ye Qing thanks again.


    After Zhang Xiu takes a seat, her eyes fall on Ye Qing''s body and look at it carefully. Although Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe in facial features, Ye Qing''s facial features make people feel that this person is mean and hard to make a good impression.


    Some people, a face-to-face let people like a spring breeze.


    Some people, a face-to-face will make people malicious.


    Especially when Zhang Xiu sees Ye Qing''s flighty eyes, she has no good impression on Ye Qing.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "what can I do for you when you come to see me?"


    Ye Qing arched his hand and said, "since general Zhang entered Chang''an, he has recruited many talented people and made countless taxis show their strong points. So that countless poor scholars see the hope. "


    "Countless scholars are grateful for general Zhang''s kindness."


    "General Zhang Weizi, the founder of hancao, has his heart in his family."


    "The poor family is committed to letting the scholars show their strong points, avoid detours and step into the official career earlier."


    "The poor family all hope that general Zhang will come."


    With an expectant look on his face, Ye Qing said: "Ye Qing is dull, and he doesn''t know what to say. He only asks the general to come to the poor family''s house and say to the poor family''s scholars for the sake of their devout expectation."


    When he had finished, he bowed again 90 degrees.


    After hearing Ye Qing''s words, Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, but she was thinking about it in her heart. From his understanding of Ye Qing, and on the surface, Ye Qing is likely to use him to promote his fame and show the influence of the poor family.


    Once Zhang Xiu is gone, Ye Qing can declare that Zhang Xiu recognizes the poor family. After all, Zhang Xiu goes to the poor family and speaks to the scholars in person.


    This is the most superficial judgment.


    But Zhang Xiu considers more, what Zhang Xiu cares about is the person behind Ye Qing. After all, Wang Yue once mentioned that Ye Qing often went to the south of the city, obviously because there was someone behind him.


    However, it is not easy for Zhang Xiu to refuse Ye Qing''s invitation.


    The reason is very simple. Once the news of Zhang Xiu''s refusal comes out, it will affect Zhang Xiu''s reputation as a courteous and virtuous corporal.


    You embroider to be a good corporal, but you don''t see a gentleman.


    What is the reason?


    After Zhang Xiu pondered, she had a plan in her heart. When ye Qinglai invited him, he took advantage of this opportunity to catch the people behind the scenes.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "your request was granted. When is the time and where is the place? "


    With joy in his heart, Ye Qing quickly said, "report back to General Zhang. The time is set at midnight tomorrow morning, and the place is set at the humble home in Qingping street in the south of the city. Tomorrow morning, I''ll arrange for you to wait for the general in my humble home in Qingping street. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a concise answer.


    Ye Qing did not stay, so he left immediately.

 Chapter 342

    Zhang Xiu looks at Ye Qing''s back, sharp eyes, and orders: "Wang Yue, mobilize the people of the royal guards, carefully check Ye Qing''s next move. If he wants to go to the south of the city, the people in the south of the city are probably the ones who remote control Ye Qing. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand to respond.


    After arranging Wang Yue''s affairs, Zhang Xiu gets up and goes back to her study.


    On the other hand, Ye Qing left the general''s house and went straight to Xu you''s house. He was in a good mood and had a happy look on his face. He reported: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu agreed. At midnight tomorrow morning, Zhang Xiu will come to the poor family. "


    "Good!"


    Xu you praised: "you worked hard."


    Ye Qingdao: "not hard."


    With a smile on his face, Xu you waved his hand and said, "go ahead and get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow is the most glorious time for the poor family. We can''t make any mistakes. "


    "I understand!"


    Ye Qing''s heart is full of joy.


    After Xu you praised him, his worried heart completely settled down.


    Xu you immediately called to his side of the black samurai, under a command, planning for tomorrow. These things, do not need Ye Qing to know, also cannot let Ye Qing know.


    This is Xu you''s plan.


    After arranging everything properly, Xu you was completely idle, waiting for the coming of the next day. When Xu you mobilized his strength, the royal guards, who were secretly watching, quickly sent the news back to Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue didn''t dare to delay, so he handed the news to Zhang Xiu directly.


    Zhang Xiu saw the information sent back, more sharp look between the eyebrows.


    The people behind Ye Qing are not weak.


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, the news from the royal guards says that the people behind Ye Qing have mastered a group of black warriors. They may be soldiers in the army. Under such a premise, the people behind Ye Qing may have intended to do harm to the Lord. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "do not rule out this possibility."


    Wang Yue said: "if you want to transfer the royal guards and take the people behind Ye Qing."


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "since she has promised to go to the poor family, she naturally wants to go. Only in this way can we get him out and know who he is? "


    Wang Yue worried: "I''m afraid there will be risks to the safety of my Lord."


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu confidently said, "isn''t there a royal guard among the poor scholars? What''s more, when I go tomorrow, I will also take Deng Zhan and the soldiers under my protection. In addition, you mobilize the people of the royal guards to ambush near the poor family''s home. No one is allowed to leave tomorrow''s action. We need to catch all of them. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue''s fist should be thrown.


    Although Wang Yue felt the pressure, he was also excited.


    This kind of thing, only give him in charge of the royal guards to carry out, is the most appropriate. Give it to other people. Once the army is mobilized, it may scare the snake.


    Wang Yue left the study to arrange the arrangement.


    Time flies by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the next morning.


    This day early in the morning, Zhang Xiu had breakfast, dressed neatly, and was ready to go out. Zhang Xiu was dressed in splendid clothes, sword hanging around her waist, and Jinxian crown on her head. She was very dignified.


    Deng Zhan follows Zhang Xiu, and Wang Yue comes early and follows Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Xiu said:" the more you need to be in charge of my side


    Wang Yue shook his head and said, "Shi a is in charge of the external command. Humble position with the Lord''s side, to ensure the safety of the Lord. There are humble positions and Deng Zhan, plus the master''s high martial arts, even if he is a tiger, he can make a breakthrough. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said nothing more.


    They took a carriage and went straight to Qingping street in the south of the city.


    After Zhang Xiu left the general''s house, when the carriage went to the poor family''s home in Qingping street, the man who watched secretly left first, galloped his horse, and soon returned to Xu you.


    Now, Xu you also went to a poor family.


    He is also involved in today''s affairs.


    Because he''s a schemer.


    The sentinel stood beside Xu you and reported: "Mr. Zhang Xiu has gone out. Zhang Xiu came to the poor family''s home with only two guards and no one else


    When Xu you heard this, he sneered.


    Zhang Xiu is so arrogant.


    When you go out, you don''t even bring your own soldiers, only two guards.


    Xu you''s heart is more determined, this poor family''s gathering, is the end of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu occupied Nanyang, Jingzhao and youfufeng, but in fact, all this was based on the fact that Zhang Xiu was alive.


    Once Zhang Xiu is killed, the situation will change greatly.


    At that time, the good situation under Zhang Xiu''s command will be destroyed immediately.


    This is Xu you''s plan.


    Xu you''s original intention was to make use of the scholar''s son to make trouble and ruin Zhang Xiu''s reputation as a courteous and virtuous corporal. But Zhang Xiu put up a notice to help poor scholars, which made Xu you''s plan fail.To this end, Xu you changed his plan.


    Xu you will take advantage of this situation to get rid of Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao''s great enemy.


    At this time, ye Qingzheng talked with a taxi from a poor family. He wandered among the people, eagerly encouraged them to talk and laugh with them.


    Ye Qing''s admiration and gratitude.


    After a walk, Ye Qing returned to Xu you and said, "my Lord, everything is ready. Just wait for Zhang Xiu to arrive. This time, it will be a great success. "


    Xu you patted Ye Qing on the shoulder and said, "perform well and seize the opportunity."


    "Yes


    Ye Qing''s joyful reply.


    To this day, he does not know that he has been sold by Xu you.


    "Newspaper!"


    Shortly after, a sentinel came to Xu you and said, "Mr. Zhang Xiu is coming."


    Xu you said, "Ye Qing, inform all the scholars to be ready to meet general Zhang."


    "Yes


    Ye Qing was ordered to inform immediately.


    In the humble family, Ye Qing is the founder and Xu you is a gentleman. His speech is concise, and his speech is very bewitching, and he has a wide range of knowledge. He can solve all the difficult problems of scholars and is respected by scholars.


    Ye Qing and Xu you lead people to the gate.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    A carriage, coming.


    The carriage drove quickly and finally stopped on the street outside the humble home.


    At this moment, all eyes focused on the carriage. One by one, the scholars held their breath and looked at Zhang Xiu''s carriage with expectation and joy in their eyes. They admire Ye Qing even more. They didn''t expect that Ye Qing could even invite Zhang Xiu. It''s really powerful.


    The curtain of the carriage door was lifted, and Wang Yue stepped down first.


    Wang Yue''s eyes swept over Xu you, his brows rose, and he looked to another place.


    After that, Zhang Xiu got out of the carriage.


    At the moment when Zhang Xiu came down, Wang Yue stood behind Zhang Xiu and said in a low voice: "Lord, the middle-aged man beside Ye Qing may be the mastermind behind the scenes. Early this morning, the royal guards sent back the news that he came out of the house "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over Xu you, but she was surprised and her brows rose.


    This is Xu you!


    Zhang Xiu knew Xu you. In her first life, Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao before the Guandu war, witnessing Cao Cao''s defeat of Yuan Shao and Xu you''s surrender to Cao Cao. It also witnessed Xu you''s rebellious and wild talk, and finally he was killed by Cao Cao.


    Today, Xu you is Yuan Shao''s counselor.


    Zhang Xiu knows Xu you, but for Xu you, he hasn''t met Zhang Xiu and thinks that Zhang Xiu doesn''t know him. Just like this, Xu you dare to come out blatantly.

 Chapter 343

    Xu you held his head high, calm and confident, and did not feel that he would be exposed.


    He and Ye Qing go forward together and bow to Zhang Xiu. When ye Qing saw Zhang Xiu, he immediately waved his hand to Xu you and said, "General Zhang, this is Xu you. Although the humble family was founded by the grassroots, Mr. Xu you had outstanding wisdom. He gave many useful suggestions to the scholars so that they would eventually become officials. "


    Xu you immediately bows to show his respect for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu also nodded his head, but in her heart, she sneered. Xu you changed his name to Xu you. The change is really simple. The pronunciation of the words is not much different. It''s just a change of one word.


    Xu you can''t escape today.


    Ye Qing turned and pointed to the hundreds of scholars of the poor family and said, "general, these people are all the scholars of the poor family. The number of people who used to live in poor families could not be so large, because many taxi drivers seldom come back. Today, general Zhang came to my humble home, and they all came back. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He glanced at all the scholars present and was suspicious of them. At least now, Zhang Xiu can''t judge how many of these people are attracted by Xu you?


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much, and Ye Qing didn''t give much introduction. She took Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhan and Wang Yue into the mansion. This is a gathering place of poor families. Although the house is simple, it is better than the place is broad.


    In the front yard, there are trees, and the space is wide enough to accommodate five or six hundred people.


    Entering the courtyard, Ye Qing, as the host, took the lead in standing on the stage near the wall. First, he appreciated Zhang Xiu''s presence, and then talked about a big conversation, focusing on the introduction of the poor family and his contribution in it.


    At the end of the day, it''s for credit.


    Ye Qing also listened to Xu you''s words and wanted to make today''s affairs more glorious. He pondered after the event, after doing it well, Zhang Xiu''s visit alone, even if he did not go to Jizhou, he could still have a foothold in Chang''an.


    Therefore, Ye Qing worked very hard.


    After a quarter of an hour, ye began to celebrate.


    Zhang Xiu dozed off.


    On the other hand, the rest of the taxis listened with relish and looked proud.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Xu you. If he didn''t want to see Xu you''s card, he would have taken Xu you. He won''t let Xu you sit here.


    Zhang Xiucai bears the mind, listening to Ye Qing say no nutrition words.


    When ye Qing finished speaking, he burst into warm applause. One by one, the poor people were born in taxis. They clapped and their faces turned red, as if they had much to do with them.


    After Ye Qing finished, Xu you stepped on the stage.


    Xu you raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet. His eyes fell on Zhang Xiu, his eyes gradually became sharp, no longer as before. He said with a faint smile: "thank you for the arrival of General Zhang. Today, I''ll give general Zhang a ride."


    "Do it!"


    Xu you didn''t say much and gave an order.


    "Kill


    In an instant, among the scholars, there was a sudden explosion. These people are holding daggers and directly kill Zhang Xiu. The person holding the dagger, when he meets the taxi in the way, the dagger is waved and inserted directly into the taxi.


    At that time, there was a shrill scream, and the person who made the move continued to rush to Zhang Xiu.


    In the yard, it was a mess.


    Screams, calls, one after another.


    No one thought that on weekdays, Mr. Xu you, who was friendly, suddenly changed and wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Even Ye Qing was stunned.


    How is that possible?


    How can Xu you choose to directly assassinate Zhang Xiu? You know, this is the most glorious day of his humble family. But now, he has something to do with the assassination of Zhang Xiu. After that, he can''t stay in Chang''an, because he is Xu you''s accomplice.


    It''s over.


    Ye Qing''s heart suddenly sank.


    Gudong!


    Ye Qing swallows a mouthful of saliva and comes to Xu you quickly. So far, he had no ability to control the situation, so he had to run to Xu you to protect himself.


    Other scholars were scared to run around.


    Some people run out.


    Some people exclaimed.


    Some people were scared out of their senses and crouched in the same place.


    ¡­¡­


    Between life and death, we can see everyone''s response and ability.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, without any confusion, and she was very calm. All this was in his expectation, not an accident.


    Zhang Xiu gives a cursory glance and suddenly turns into a killer taxi. At least there are more than 20 people.


    One by one, kill Zhang Xiu quickly.


    "Sonorous!"


    The Longquan sword on Zhang Xiu''s waist is out of its sheath. She holds the sword in her hand and is ready to move.


    Deng Zhan and Wang Yue are also pulling out their swords. They have sharp eyes, one left and one right guarding Zhang Xiu''s side. They are fierce in their eyes.A moment later, a killer arrived.


    Deng zhanti''s sword is sharp. A sword light flashed by, and a killer was killed under the sword. On the other side, Wang Yue''s Sabre is epee. He cuts it out with one sword and falls on a killer''s dagger.


    "Dang!"


    Under the impact of the heavy blade, in an instant, the killer''s dagger was knocked away, and the Epee fell down and killed on the killer''s neck.


    I''m sorry!


    The blade of the sword cut its neck.


    "Poof!"


    The warm blood splashed out and fell on the ground.


    In a flash, the killer died under Wang Yue''s sword.


    It was just an instant. Without blinking an eye, Wang Yue went on with his sword. His sword moves are sharp, open and close, and no one can stop him.


    A killer approaching, not close to Zhang Xiu, was immediately killed in the sword.


    Killers, constantly being killed.


    Many people have fled from the taxis in the courtyard and gradually become empty.


    Zhang Xiu hasn''t even made a move yet, and more than 20 killers have all died. None of them has survived. Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Xu you and said in a deep voice: "Xu you, if you only have this means, you can''t kill Ben Jiang. Is that all you can do? "


    Xu you is staring at by Zhang Xiu''s eyes, some surprised in the heart.


    Zhang Xiu seems to know him.


    The moment this feeling rises, it is pressed down. He doesn''t think Zhang Xiu knew him before.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what I said just now is not a double Xu. What I will talk about is Xu you, a counselor of Yuan Shao, a herdsman in Jizhou. It''s so crude and simple for you to be called Xu you. At least, you are Yuan Shao''s counselor. When you go to Chang''an city to brew a plot, you can also make some high-end and powerful schemes. You are too weak


    Brush!


    Xu you''s face changed again and again, and his eyes widened.


    How is that possible?


    His identity has been kept secret. How can it be disclosed?


    Without any hesitation, Xu you immediately looks at Ye Qing. The only person who knows his identity is Ye Qing. Otherwise, his identity would not have been revealed.


    Ye Qing is staring at by Xu you, his head shakes like a rattle, and even says: "my Lord, it''s not me, it''s not what I said. I''m loyal to my Lord. I can''t reveal your identity. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s him!"


    When Xu you heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was angry and stabbed out his sword.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the sword runs through Ye Qing''s heart. The stirring of the blade breaks Ye Qing''s heart. When Xu you draws out his sword, Ye Qing murmurs that he is not the one who informs.


    "Plop!"


    The next moment, Ye Qing eyes dark down, no breath, body plummeted to the ground.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this scene, there was no pity in her eyes. Ye Qing colludes with Xu you, especially asks him to be greedy and lustful. For the sake of suspicions, he colludes with people in Jizhou. It''s not a pity that such people die.


    Zhang Xiu mouth with a smile, light way: "Xu you, in fact, it is not Ye Qing informer.". Ye Qing is such a fool. He is greedy for life and afraid of death. How dare he reveal your identity? I reckon that in his heart, he really wants you to take him north to Jizhou. "


    Xu you''s cheek twitched slightly.


    He was completely fooled by Zhang Xiu, because ye Qing''s appearance was not what he said.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Xu you, you may not believe it. I really know you. It''s a pity that your plan, which you thought was perfect, had already failed the moment I saw you. "


    Xu you clenched his fist.


    I see!


    He finally understood why Zhang Xiu could see through his plan, even so calm. Zhang Xiu even knows him. How can he play. What happened in front of him was totally different from what he had imagined.

 Chapter 344

    Xu you clenched his teeth and said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, do you really think these 20 killers are my mace? You look down on me. "


    "What are you doing behind you? Come out to me!"


    Xu you gave the order again.


    In an instant, from the front yard to the back yard of the aisle, Hula rushed out of a group of people. These people rushed out, one by one dressed in black, holding swords, murderous.


    There is a strong murderous spirit in these people.


    It''s the temperament of the soldiers in the army.


    More than 100 people came out of this wave. One by one, Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhan and Wang Yue were quickly surrounded.


    With a smile in his mouth, Xu you raised his head and said, "Zhang Xiu, do you see that? These people are my Assassin''s mace. With them, even if you have three heads and six arms, you can''t escape. "


    "Don''t worry, I won''t kill you."


    "If I kill you, a group of soldiers under your command will kill me, and I can''t escape from Chang''an."


    "I will capture you alive, take you as a hostage, and then leave Chang''an with you. When I escort you back to Jizhou, I will report to my Lord and ask him to kill you. "


    "As soon as you die, the good situation under your command will collapse."


    "Jingzhao and youfufeng, who were once as solid as gold, will immediately fall into chaos and no longer be able to maintain stability. Everything is tied to your Zhang Xiu, who is the key to this game. "


    On Xu you''s face, he looked proud.


    Although he was recognized, Zhang xiutuoda entered the ambush circle.


    Zhang Xiu has no way to escape.


    His 20 killers failed, but there were still more than 100 soldiers. These soldiers are all elite soldiers in the army. They are all valiant soldiers. It''s easy to surround and kill Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, praise a way: "Xu you, see you proud of.". If I don''t hold you down, I''m afraid you''ll fly to the sky. Alas, it''s a pity that you are still weak in front of this general. "


    "Come out!"


    Zhang Xiu said faintly.


    In a flash, I saw a dense crowd of archers on the wall of the yard. Each archer stood outside the wall, his upper body protruding out of the wall, bowing and taking arrows. The sharp arrows aimed at the soldiers in the yard.


    Boom!!


    At the gate, there was another loud noise.


    A soldier broke through the gate and came straight in.


    One by one, all the soldiers belonging to the royal guards came in and stood behind Zhang Xiu. The soldiers of the royal guards had sharp eyes and were fierce. They surrounded the black warriors in the courtyard.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xu you in the yard and said with a smile, "Xu you, who do you think is ambushing who?"


    Xu you''s face cooled down.


    His pride just now has not passed. Now he looks cold and dignified in the face of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    This war is dangerous.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Xu you, you don''t want to break out. This section of Qingping street has been blocked by my people. It''s impossible for you to escape. You can''t escape today. "


    Creak!


    Xu you clenched his fist and clucked his knuckles.


    His eyes were solemn.


    Xu you knew that he had miscalculated this time, but after careful consideration, something was wrong.


    There is bad news.


    Xu you''s eyes were calm and said in a deep voice: "you Zhang Xiu didn''t see me until you got out of the carriage. You haven''t seen me before. Since you haven''t met me, it''s impossible to know me, and you don''t know that the poor family will be bad for you. "


    "Under such a premise, why did you arrange the ambush ahead of time?"


    "I don''t understand that."


    Xu you said: "poor family, in the end is where the flaw, let you mobilize soldiers in advance around ambush."


    Xu you''s identity was revealed only after Zhang Xiu saw it. But from the ambush around, it is clear that Zhang Xiu has been planning for a long time.


    Zhang Xiu must have suspected in advance.


    This is Xu you''s judgment.


    Zhang Xiu said slowly: "you are worthy of being Yuan Shao''s confidant counselor, and you can see the problem. Yes, I doubted Ye Qing''s intention to invite me in advance. Ye Qing, a poor family, is greedy for money and lust and extravagant. From time to time, he goes to your house to see you. It can be seen that there are people behind him with ulterior motives. "


    Xu you gritted his teeth and said, "with this alone, you mobilized the army?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Xu you said: "you Zhang Xiu is really cautious, a simple invitation, but you mobilized soldiers to ambush nearby."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "is not careful, but go all out.". Knowing that ye Hanqing is not a good man, he is not a good man. Xu you, cut the crap and surrender? ""Never!"


    Xu you answered in a loud voice: "who will win the battle? We only know after the battle."


    "Kill


    Xu you gave the order.


    His soldiers in black, regardless of the archers on the wall, regardless of Zhang Xiu''s ambush, directly kill Zhang Xiu with a knife, intending to kill Zhang Xiu.


    At the moment when the soldiers in black took the hand, the soldiers of the royal guards under Zhang Xiu quickly welcomed them.


    The two sides immediately joined in the battle.


    "Whew! Whew


    The archer on the wall also took the bow and arrow, aiming at the soldiers in black. Archers do not shoot at random, they shoot after aiming.


    An arrow shot out and took the life of a soldier in black.


    It is impossible to shoot indiscriminately when there is fighting below.


    Otherwise, it will hurt others and yourself.


    As soon as the two sides met, Xu you''s soldiers in black fell directly behind.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is well prepared.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Xu you. He takes Longquan sword and kills out in one step. Looking at the soldier in black who was killing him, Zhang Xiu''s Longquan sword was handed out in the air. The front of the sword was moving forward. A sword that was wrong to avoid the soldier in black stabbed the soldier in black''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu''s feet kept moving forward.


    One by one to resist Zhang Xiu''s soldiers in black, but a face to face, died in Zhang Xiu''s arrow.


    No one can stop it!


    Zhang Xiu''s fighting is invincible.


    Xu you see Zhang Xiu kill, eyes gradually become dignified. When he was in Jizhou, he had heard of Zhang Xiu''s reputation and knew that Zhang Xiu''s shooting skills were superb and his martial arts were excellent.


    Now see Zhang Xiu constantly forward, in the chaos of war, such as leisurely general, elegant demeanor.


    Xu you also feels numb.


    Terror!


    It''s terrible.


    "Protect me, protect me!"


    Xu you orders out loud and mobilizes soldiers in black to protect him. Seeing that Zhang Xiu is still killing him, Xu you doesn''t run away either, because in today''s situation, he wants to run away, which is impossible.


    Zhang Xiu has said that there are soldiers blocking the official road on Qingping street, so they can''t escape.


    Xu you has only one battle.


    Unless you take Zhang Xiu and take Zhang Xiu as a hostage, you will have a chance to escape.


    Zhang Xiu is still moving forward. Under his Longquan sword, more than ten people have died, but the edge of the sword is still bright and not stained with any blood. Even Zhang Xiu''s body is not stained with any blood.


    The whole person, incomparably natural and unrestrained.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu is more and more frightening to the soldiers in black. Even if these soldiers in black are veterans of all wars and valiant soldiers on the battlefield, they can also be killed by Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    There are black soldiers shouting, a lunge, rushed to Zhang Xiu behind. He swung the sword in his hand and cut it off.


    Zhang Xiu turns around and cuts out the Longquan sword.


    "Yes


    The sharp edge of the sword passed around the neck of the soldier in black.


    "Poof!"


    Blood splashing, a huge head, directly in the blood under the impact of flying into the sky, and then fell to the ground, bone rolling for a distance to stop.


    "Bang!"


    Headless body, then fell to the ground.


    There was no expression on Zhang Xiu''s face. She was calm and still carried her sword forward.


    This scene is even more shocking.


    Gudong!


    Xu you swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his legs trembled, and even gave birth to a trace of urine. Although Xu you also killed people and went to the battlefield, he had never seen Zhang Xiu kill like a chicken.

 Chapter 345

    Zhang Xiu''s step forward did not stop at all. Even if there were soldiers in black in front, no one could resist under Zhang Xiu''s sword. He killed more and more people, protecting the soldiers in black beside Xu you. In a flash, there were less than six people left.


    Xu you''s soldiers in black were originally more than 100, but in a short time, they lost more than half of them.


    The rest of us are still struggling.


    Xu you''s side has been defeated like a mountain.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of the overall situation of the war. He took Longquan sword and killed Xu you. Zhang Xiu hands out two swords one after another, kills two soldiers in black, and rushes to Xu you with one lunge.


    Arriving at Xu you''s body, Zhang Xiu didn''t put out a sword, but raised her leg and kicked it out.


    "Bang!"


    The sole of the foot is printed on Xu you''s abdomen.


    Under the impact of the great power, in an instant, Xu you flew backwards and fell to the ground.


    Xu you, who had fallen to the ground, covered his belly and his face was full of pain. Zhang Xiu''s foot down, he felt the intestines are almost broken, severe pain, make his body curled up.


    Zhang Xiu stepped forward again, and had already arrived in front of Xu you. Her foot fell on Xu you''s chest. Under the pressure of peiran''s strength, Xu you''s cheek became red, and her eyes were gradually full of blood.


    "I surrender!"


    "I will surrender!"


    Xu you spoke loudly.


    At this time, he chose to save his life first. As long as he survives, there''s still a chance to escape. Once you try to be brave and die under Zhang Xiu''s sword, even if you have any ambition, it can''t be realized.


    Zhang Xiu started to sneer at the corner of her mouth.


    Xu you is arrogant, arrogant and self righteous. He has always been arrogant. There is no use for such people to stay around. What''s more, Zhang Xiu plans to use Xu you to break the situation of Hongnong county.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to surrender Xu you.


    However, now we can make use of Xu you''s experience.


    Zhang Xiu released the foot on Xu you''s chest. As soon as she waved, some soldiers came forward and detained Xu you. After capturing Xu you alive, Zhang Xiu doesn''t recruit the rest of the soldiers in black, leaving the royal guards to kill them.


    Under the attack of bows and arrows and the royal guards, only a few soldiers in black were left. In a short time, they were slaughtered.


    Some taxis huddled in the corner, shivering, with fear in their eyes.


    They didn''t expect that Ye Qing was from Jizhou, and they didn''t expect that the person who taught them their experience on weekdays was actually a counselor under Yuan Shao, a herdsman in Jizhou.


    Everything is beyond the expectation of others.


    Zhang Xiu asked Wang Yue to count the losses and sweep them to the battlefield. Soon, at the gate of the courtyard, he entered a large number of scholars. These are all panic taxis. Originally, they ran out, but they were all captured by the royal guards stationed outside. None of them could escape.


    Wang Yue''s eyes swept over the scholars and said, "my Lord, these scholars are highly suspicious. I beg you to take them all back to the royal guards and interrogate them one by one. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "let them go."


    "Ah


    Wang Yue exclaimed.


    In Wang Yue''s opinion, these scholars are all plotting against Zhang Xiu, and they are all the people to deal with.


    It is necessary to make a thorough investigation to distinguish the good from the bad.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept the shivering taxis, but she shook her head. Although Zhang Xiu also thinks that Xu you may be one of these scholars, generally speaking, it is useless to lose Xu you, even if there are Xu you.


    These scholars, in Zhang Xiu''s opinion, are mostly poor scholars. They have no use value. They can''t know any real secrets. They are not Xu you''s accomplices.


    Even Ye Qing was directly regarded as an abandoned son, let alone these people.


    They have only the value of being used.


    It is not easy for a poor scholar to have his own difficulties and sorrow.


    Zhang Xiu faced the taxi who had been detained, and the taxi who was hiding on the side shivering. Her face softened and she said, "you came from a poor family. It''s not easy to study. Ten years of hard study, just for one can jump the dragon''s gate, change the fate. Today''s matter, this will believe you are innocent


    One scholar smell speech, look to Zhang Xiu''s eyes, more a touch of gratitude and happiness.


    Just now Wang Yue said that when he wanted to take them all away, everyone was nervous. Many of them have wives and children at home, and their parents have to support them. Once they are taken away, I''m afraid something will happen at home.


    In all people''s hearts, they are very happy.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I believe you, I believe you are innocent. I hope you will bear in mind that today is a lesson for poor families. "


    "The general''s office issued a notice yesterday."


    "As long as you have real talent and practical learning, you can go to the general''s office for assessment. There are special officials in charge of the assessment. As long as you can pass the assessment, the government will subsidize the accommodation and money within one year. ""Make sure you find the right thing to do."


    "In addition, the government is actively trying to find a way to set up a talent market. In the future, however, the labor market will post employment notices to let you find suitable jobs. "


    Zhang Xiu raised her voice and said in a loud voice: "this general is not from a big family, but from a military general. I know that it''s not easy for you to be a poor window for ten years. Ben will also hope and work hard to give you something to do. Please be patient. As long as you are talented, the government will let you show your talents. "


    "Thank you, general!"


    Among the scholars, there was a loud voice of thanks.


    With a plop, a poor scholar knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Xiu for not tracking down.


    Then, all the scholars knelt down.


    When everyone looked at Zhang Xiu, they were full of gratitude. They were all born in poverty and could not be arrested for interrogation. Once in prison, on the one hand, they are tainted, on the other hand, their families are worried.


    Zhang Xiu magnanimous disposal, let them breathe a sigh of relief.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s go!"


    All the scholars were ordered to kowtow to Zhang Xiu again and then left one by one. At this moment, the poor family taxi was completely changed by Zhang Xiu, at least everyone''s heart, will only hate Xu you, hate Yuan Shao, and then will appreciate Zhang Xiu.


    Xu you is in one side, saw all these in the eye.


    There is a touch of shock in Xu you''s eyes.


    Is this Zhang Xiu?


    Is this Zhang Xiu from a martial arts background?


    You should know that Zhang Xiu''s words and means just now are exquisite. They not only eliminate the estrangement between scholars and Zhang Xiu, but also make scholars trust Zhang Xiu more and solve the influence brought by Xu you.


    Simple words, received the heart of hundreds of scholars.


    Xu you took a deep breath and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are very similar to a person I know."


    Zhang xiudao: "who?"


    Xu you replied, "Cao Cao!"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing and said, "how can I be like Cao Cao?"


    Xu you said: "you Zhang Xiu was born as a martial artist, and Cao Cao was born as a eunuch. You are not a famous family or a scholarly family. But you are all very cunning, and very good at gathering people''s hearts and inciting people. What you said just now has the grace of Cao Cao. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles gently.


    He knew it was Xu you''s praise.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not appreciate it, saying: "although Cao Cao is powerful, I, Zhang Xiu, will not lose to Cao Cao. Xu you, you should say that Cao Cao is like me, not me. "


    Xu you snorted: "arrogant!"


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and continued: "is it arrogant? You will know later. But now, you are not in a good situation. You are a prisoner of Ben Jiang. What do you think Ben Jiang should do with you? "


    Brush!


    Xu you''s face changed slightly.


    At this moment, Xu you was also nervous. He just said surrender, but Zhang Xiu didn''t pay any attention to him. After he knew that Zhang Xiu was not simple, he knew that it was not easy and simple to deceive Zhang Xiu in front of her.

 Chapter 346

    When Xu you heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was also flustered.


    For a moment, he didn''t know what to do. The current situation, he became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner, is the fish on the chopping board.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to kill him, he will die.


    In a hurry, Xu you changed his style and threatened: "Zhang Xiu, you are only three counties now. My lord Yuan Shao, according to Jizhou, Bingzhou and Youzhou, looks down upon the world."


    "On the world''s princes, our Lord''s strength, who dares to rob their edge?"


    "Cao Cao, dare not provoke my Lord."


    "Gongsun Zan is like a turtle in a jar."


    "Yuan Shu is more afraid of my Lord."


    Xu you said forcefully: "in front of my Lord''s cavalry and army, your strength is the mantis arm."


    "If you detain me, you will be avenged by the Lord. Once the Lord sends a large army to kill you, your troops will be defeated, and your family will be destroyed. "


    "Zhang Xiu, you let me go now. Maybe I can think of a few words for you in front of the Lord."


    "In this way, the Lord will not aim at you."


    "In this way, the Lord will not send troops."


    There is a hope in Xu you''s eyes. He said, "once you detain me and make my lord angry, the Lord will fight against you. If the army comes, you can''t resist."


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "I don''t know how to live or die!"


    Xu you took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, I''m thinking about you. You see, after you entered Nanyang County, it was not easy for you to occupy a county. Now entering Guanzhong and seizing Jingzhao and youfufeng, we have managed to stabilize the situation. If you have offended my Lord, you will not be able to maintain the present situation. "


    Zhang xiutut said: "unfortunately, you are a prisoner. Even if Yuan Shao wants to attack, what''s my fear? In short, you will die in front of me. "


    Brush!


    Xu you''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu is such a rascal. He racked his brains to use words, but it didn''t work at all.


    Xu you wants to threaten Zhang Xiu with the help of the script, and finally achieves the result of letting Zhang Xiu release him. But the problem is that if Zhang Xiu doesn''t answer, or even a word, all his words are blocked.


    This is helpless.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to listen to Xu you''s wordiness and continued: "Xu you, my original consideration was to kill you immediately. Just considering that when you attack Hongnong County, you can still use it to save your life. Now, enjoy your last time. When I take Hongnong County, it will be your death. "


    "Ah


    Xu you''s face changed again and again.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu should be so hard hearted.


    It''s killing him!


    At least, he is a talented person and a famous person in the world. When the princes of the world see Xu you, they will also give him a thin face. But here in Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu looks dismissive, even when he loses the use value, he will be killed.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    Xu you swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "General Zhang, I, Xu you, have followed Yuan Shao for many years and know his situation well. With my help, it is extremely easy for you to destroy Yan Liang. As long as you are willing, with me, you will avoid many detours. "


    At this moment, Xu you wants to save his life.


    Life is still there, there is still a chance.


    Zhang xiudao said: "first threat, then compromise. A person like you, who dares to believe you. Wang Yue, I''ll leave you to take care of Xu you. If it''s a man who runs away, you''ll come and see him. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue''s fist should be thrown.


    Xu you''s eyes fell on Wang Yue. He had seen Wang Yue kill people with his own eyes before. It''s true that there''s no blood to kill. He''s going to kill people with his own eyes. He was staring at by Wang Yue''s eyes, as if by a poisonous snake. He could not help shivering.


    Wang Yue waves his hand, and the people of the royal guards escort Xu you to leave.


    Zhang Xiu tells Wang Yue to clean up the poor family, and then gets up and leaves.


    Back at home, Zhang Xiu is at leisure.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, all things arranged to go on, his hands a lot less. Zhang Xiu is relaxed, but the officials of her departments are extremely busy.


    Whether it''s the army, or the government system, or Cao Jie and Huang Yueying in the backyard, they are too busy to see people.


    Zhang Xiu''s army expanded again.


    Chen Dao''s elite cavalry of Langya camp has been expanded to 5000. Huang Zhong''s flying bear army and Gan Ning''s fierce tiger army were expanded to 15000 each.


    In addition, there are 20000 regular troops stationed in Chang''an.


    The strength of the conventional army is lower, but it can provide enough troops to enrich the Langya camp, the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    Although raising troops consumes countless food and money, for Zhang Xiu, there is no pressure on more than 50000 troops. After all, Zhang Xiu has a steady stream of money.


    In terms of government affairs, the six ministries perform their respective duties.As for Jing Zhaoyin, the talent market has been set up rapidly and started to operate, and the assessment of scholars is also in progress.


    Everything is in order.


    At the end of August, Cao Jie''s home and restaurant, which was under the command of Cao Jie, were officially open to the public. The reason for waiting until the end of August is that Cao Jie expected to be overcrowded when he got home and the restaurant opened. During this period, he specially asked Zhou Fu to prepare countless pigs.


    In this way, we can ensure the supply of pigs for families and restaurants.


    Otherwise, it would have been open for a long time.


    On the first day of the opening of her home and restaurant, Zhang Xiu personally led six officials, as well as the generals of the army, to the show.


    The first day was unprecedented.


    During this period of time, Zhou Fu recruited a large number of students, taught cooking skills according to the menu, and trained many cooks. Delicious dishes were made. After countless people ate them, they would never forget.


    On the first day, the support of countless people opened up the situation.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu personally brings people to support the show. It is clear that it is Zhang Xiu who supports the show. No one dares to smash the show. In the next few days, the business was not bad every day. It can be said that the business was growing rapidly.


    Even if Zhang Xiu saw the accounts of home and restaurant, she was surprised.


    Home and restaurant, make money too much.


    It''s a golden cave.


    With the promotion of family and restaurant dishes, pork is gradually put on the table. Many people began to understand the benefits of castrating piglets. They knew that when the piglets grew up, the pork would no longer smell like mutton.


    Although some people imitated it, it had little effect in the end, because castration is also a skill.


    Fortunately, there is no secret.


    Zhou Fu specially recruited disciples to teach the skills and spread the technique of castrating piglets. Although there is no effect in a short time, it can be seen in half a year at most.


    When the time comes, countless pork will be on the market, which will change the current situation of lack of pork. In today''s situation, there are only pigs prepared by Zhou Fu for Cao Jie, and no other pork.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see the success of her family and restaurant.


    At the end of August, the weather is still hot, but it''s early autumn, and the weather is getting cooler, especially at night.


    Today, food is constantly being collected.


    The grain accumulated in the granary is also constantly filling.


    At the beginning of September, Pang''s family and Huang''s family established a rice paper manufacturing base again in Chang''an. Xuan paper''s manufacturing base in Yuyang county is still in constant operation.


    Rice paper is in short supply.


    More and more businessmen come from all over the world to buy rice paper and sell it to all over the world.


    All the states in the world began to use rice paper, so the establishment of rice paper in Chang''an will not make rice paper hoard, but increase the supply of rice paper, which is still not enough to sell.


    It''s a guaranteed business.


    Technology monopoly, one dominates.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu called all the officials of the six departments under her command and the generals of the army to the general''s mansion.


    In the hall, the guests and guests took their seats.


    They all look solemn.


    Everyone knows the purpose of Zhang Xiu''s calling people. The next step is to send troops to Hongnong county.


    Zhang Xiu swept the crowd and said in a deep voice: "after months of planning, the soldiers should be reorganized. What should be sorted out has been sorted out clearly. Next, we will attack Hongnong county. According to the previous plan, we will take Huayin county first. "


    In these two or three months time, although Zhang Xiu did not send troops, but constantly prepared.


    Everything is in order.


    The plan has already been worked out.

 Chapter 347

    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, is the royal guards lurking in Huayin ready?"


    Wang Yue hugged his fist and said, "report back to my Lord, everything is ready. It only needs the Lord''s command to act. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu has a look of approval on her face. Her eyes turn and fall on Chen Dao. She asks, "Chen Dao, can you be a good rider of Langya camp?"


    Chen Zhi held his head high and threw his voice on the ground: "now, Langya camp has recovered its combat effectiveness. Five thousand excellent soldiers of Langya camp are enough to sweep everything. Even in the face of thousands of troops, our Langya camp is enough to destroy each other. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "in this attack on Huayin County, Chen Dao took the lead and rushed to Huayin county first. Chen Zhi leads 3000 elite cavalry of Langya camp to cooperate with the people of the royal guards who are ambushing in Huayin county. Once you arrive, the royal guards will take you to the city. "


    "Here it is


    Chen to embrace the fist should be under.


    At this moment, Chen Dao''s eyes twinkled with excitement.


    The soldiers of Langya camp suffered great losses when they fought with the cavalry led by Ma Chao. Up to now, the strength of Langya battalion has increased instead of being weak, and now it is even stronger.


    Zhang xiudao said: "the elite cavalry of Langya camp left a thousand guards. The rest of the cavalry of Langya camp, follow me. The fierce tiger army and the flying bear army all went out to fight, and the conventional army stayed in Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning and Huang Zhong answered together.


    After the two men''s reply, Zhang Xiu continued: "when Chang''an area is in operation, there are more and more affairs, and the government affairs that each ministry has to deal with are constantly accumulating. This time, Pang Tong went with him, and the rest stayed in Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    All the departments headed by Xu Shu answered.


    Zhang xiudao said, "let''s go each other!"


    Everyone gets up and leaves, and Zhang Xiu goes back to the courtyard to tell Huang Yueying and Cao Jie the news of the expedition. Nowadays, they are both at home and in restaurants. It''s easy for them to be behind the scenes. After all, they have a special shopkeeper in charge.


    Zhang Xiu''s expedition was expected by the two women.


    Two people just entrust Zhang Xiu, let Zhang Xiu pay attention to safety.


    After saying goodbye to Huang Yueying and Cao Jie, Zhang Xiu left the general''s house and went straight to the barracks. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the barracks, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning had already led the troops.


    As for Chen Dao, he led the cavalry to leave first.


    At Zhang Xiu''s command, the army was drawn up, and more than 30000 elite soldiers left Chang''an and headed east to Hongnong county.


    When the army went out, the news came out immediately.


    Hongnong County, Huayin county.


    The county seat is guarded by the general Sui Gu under Zhang Yang.


    In the early years, Sui Gu became a bandit, and Yu Du and Bai Rao were famous black mountain thieves. Sui Gu also had some strategies to break through the art of war. When Cao Cao was not strong, he once conspired with Yuan Shu to attack Dongjun.


    Finally, he was defeated by Cao Cao.


    After the defeat, Sui Gu weakened his strength and became a great general of Zhang Yang.


    Although Sui Gu was born in Heishan, he was not bad in nature and could restrain soldiers. After the soldiers under his command entered Huayin County, although suigu increased the collection of grain, they did not plunder everywhere.


    At least the people''s life is OK.


    Now Sui Gu''s army is more than 15000.


    When Sui Gu raided Huayin County, there were not so many troops. Sui Gu liked to recruit soldiers. After he was stationed in Huayin County, he captured all the grain in Duan Lu, accepted some soldiers and recruited some soldiers. Today, the number of troops is more than 15000.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Sui Gu is dealing with military affairs.


    Sui Gu was in his early thirties, with a national character and a typical northern Han. He was a big man with a swallow''s chin and a tiger''s beard, and a pair of bright black eyes.


    He sat in the tent, still a body.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of hasty steps came from outside.


    The curtain of the door outside the camp was lifted up, and a soldier quickly entered. He said with his fist in his arms, "tell the general that there is a sentinel from Chang''an. Zhang Xiu has sent out troops. Zhang Xiu leads more than 30000 troops to Hongnong county. "


    "Well, here we are at last."


    On Sui Gu''s face, there was a look of joy.


    After waiting for such a long time, Zhang Xiu finally sent out troops, but she came.


    Sui Gu''s eyes dribbled around, and he thought and muttered to himself: "Zhang Xiu''s troops are more than 30000. This general''s troops are not many. If you leave Huayin county and compete with Zhang Xiu, you have little chance of winning. In this war, we have to stick to Huayin county. "


    The soldiers stood in the camp, listening quietly.


    Sui Gu continued: "to defeat Zhang Xiu, it is certainly not enough to rely on my strength. In this war, we must rely on Yan Liang''s forces. "


    Sui Gu murmured to himself.


    Although Sui Gu was born as a thief and bandit, he had read some books and had some knowledge. He knew that in these troubled times, the aristocratic family was very powerful, so he was quite awed by Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.Just so, Yan Liang''s army captured Hongnong County, Sui Gu did not say anything. In Sui Gu''s opinion, it is quite unwise to make it known that one person is guarding Hanoi Prefecture.


    In troubled times, although there is no danger for the time being with the strength of publicity, once the army is killed, publicity will not be able to hold on.


    Sui Gu believed that Zhang Yang should submit to Yuan Shao earlier.


    At present, Yuan Shao is the strongest.


    In private, Sui Gu mentioned this statement to Zhang Yang, but Zhang Yang didn''t answer it. Instead, he said that he would look at Yuan Shao Yitong and think about it later.


    This makes Sui Gu helpless.


    Sui Gu is Zhang Yang''s Ministry, and he obeys Zhang Yang''s orders.


    Sui Gu thought about it and took a piece of rice paper. He did not write immediately, and murmured: "this piece of embroidery is really powerful, even with Jingzhou''s big family, invented rice paper. This kind of rice paper is really good. "


    The soldiers were still silent.


    He is a veteran under the command of Sui Gu. He knows that Sui Gu is a chatterbox and likes to talk to himself.


    Sui Gu dipped his pen in ink, and then quickly wrote down his next plan to Yan Liang, hoping that Yan Liang would act according to the plan.


    After writing all this, Sui Gu sealed the letter and gave it to the soldiers. He said, "send it to general Yan Liang as soon as possible. We should be quick and not delay time. "


    Now Yan Liang, after taking control of Hongnong County, has led his troops to Huayin county. However, Yan Liang and Sui Gu well water did not violate the river, Yan Liang did not station in the city of Huayin County, but stationed in the rear of Huayin county.


    The soldier took the letter and left quickly.


    Sui Gu''s eyes flashed a fine light and murmured again: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, even if you are strong and powerful, so what? In today''s situation, if you offend Yuan Shao, you will be defeated in the end. "


    Sui Gu is full of confidence in this war.


    He believes in winning.


    Especially Sui Gu met Yan Liang, who was a tiger general. In the battlefield, as long as there is Yan Liang''s place, it is invincible.


    ¡­¡­


    Inside the city, near the east gate.


    In a remote house.


    This house is not big, but there are three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and the guards are very strict.


    In the hall, a middle-aged man was sitting directly above.


    His name is Zhang Fang, a Ranger in Huayin county. After Wang Yue increased his penetration into Huayin County, he sent people to contact Zhang Fang, and finally pulled Zhang Fang into the royal guards.


    Now Zhang Fang is also a member of the royal guards.


    Zhang Fang was born as a Ranger and always believed in righteousness. Since he has been subordinated to the royal guards and worked for Zhang Xiu, he should live and die for her.


    Before that, Zhang got the order.


    Zhang Fang wants to mobilize the Rangers in the city and prepare to cooperate with the troops who come to attack Huayin county.


    To this end, Zhang Fang has been preparing.


    After two or three months of preparation, to this day, everything has been arranged by Zhang Fang.


    Just before, Zhang Fang received an order from Wang Yue, asking him to arrange people outside the city to prepare to meet Chen Dao for action.


    When Zhang Fang got the news, he was agitated in his heart and immediately summoned the main figures in the Ranger. He looked at the people under his command and said in a loud voice: "after we were subordinated to General Zhang, we took the salary given by general Zhang, but we never served him. Now the opportunity has come, and this is also the opportunity for us to make contributions. "


    When they heard this, they were all excited and said, "please give me an order."


    Zhang Fang said: "Lin Yue, you are familiar with the situation outside the city and smart. You go out of the city and take charge of meeting with General Chen to determine the time of our operation. The rest of you, let me prepare. When we make a contribution, the top will not be stingy with awards. "


    "Here it is


    All of them answered.


    One by one, their faces are full of fighting spirit.


    Chivalrous children have always been ignored. They are respected by Zhang Xiu and entrusted with important tasks. They are happy and willing to go through life and death for this.


    What Rangers value is not money, but trust.


    Zhang Xiu believes them and pays attention to them. Each of them is extremely grateful.

 Chapter 348

    Huayin County, 20 miles behind the county.


    This is where Yan Liang''s troops are stationed.


    Yan Liang brought only 10000 elite troops from Jizhou. However, Yan Liang was not a step-by-step man. After he conquered the whole Hongnong County, he recruited 10000 soldiers.


    Now, under Yan Liang''s command, there are 20000 troops.


    Yan Liang''s military supplies, on the one hand, depended on Yuan Shao''s supplies, on the other hand, on the local collection of food.


    Today, there is no shortage of military provisions.


    The soldiers are still drilling and everything is in order.


    Yan Liang is a Veteran General in the army. He is very strict in discipline in the army. He eats and lives with the soldiers, and he doesn''t do anything special. In addition, he is highly skilled in martial arts and is well received by the soldiers.


    On the school field.


    Yan Liangguang''s upper body was covered with bronze muscles and sweating. He was leading the soldiers to practice.


    "Newspaper!"


    A soldier, running fast. The soldier came to Yan Liang''s side and reported: "general, we have the latest information from Chang''an."


    When Yan Liang heard that it was Chang''an, he immediately ordered the deputy general to continue to train his soldiers, and he quickly returned to the Chinese army. After sitting down, Yan Liang allowed the soldiers to wipe, put on his coat and robe, and received the information sent back by the soldiers.


    Intelligence is the news that Zhang Xiu sent troops.


    "OK, OK, Zhang Xiu is finally out. I''m getting impatient waiting for him. "


    In Yan Liang''s eyes, there was a touch of light.


    Yan Liang had already known the news of Xu you''s arrest before. He was quite helpless about the news. He scolded Xu you for not being successful enough to be defeated.


    At the beginning, Xu you insisted on going to Chang''an, creating chaos for Zhang Xiu, and even seeking Chang''an. Yan Liang strongly disagreed, because he didn''t think Xu you could succeed.


    But Xu you was a military adviser, and even Xu you had more power than Yan Liang.


    All Xu you went to Chang''an.


    Finally, Xu you failed and fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Yan Liang get detailed information, know Xu you is defeated in the assassination of Zhang Xiu, but also scold Xu you no brain. Xu you is a schemer and can hide behind the scenes. He is so conceited that he is captured by Zhang Xiu.


    Yan Liang knew that Xu you was a man of strategy and ability. The failure of such a person is not due to lack of ability, but because he is too arrogant to see Zhang Xiu in his eyes.


    This is the reason why Xu you failed.


    Yan Liang pondered quickly. After thinking for a while, he sent an order to let the general of the army mobilize the army and prepare to go to the county of Huayin county to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Just when Yan Liang gave the order, Sui Gu''s messenger came.


    Yan Liang had a good impression of Sui Gu. Because Sui Gu in front of Yan Liang, there is no show, and put the posture is very upright, without a little bit of pride, is a look of respect.


    Yan Liang received the messenger.


    After receiving the letter, Yan Liang quickly read it and fell into meditation.


    Sui Gu''s suggestion is that this time Zhang Xiu came to Hongnong county with a large number of troops, and it was not cost-effective to fight head-on. He suggested that Yan Liang not stop Zhang Xiu, and let Zhang Xiu go to the county seat of Huayin county. Sui Gu led the army and used the county seat of Huayin county to resist.


    On the other side, Yan Liang led his troops to the back of Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu''s army failed to attack Huayin county and lost a lot of troops, Yan Liang led the army to attack Zhang Xiu''s rear.


    At that time, the two armies attacked Zhang Xiu.


    After Yan Liang thought about Sui Gu''s suggestion, he found it workable.


    Although Yan Liang has 20000 elite soldiers, if he confronts Zhang Xiu head-on, we should know that Zhang Xiu has more than 30000 elite soldiers. Even if Yan Liang is elite, he is not an opponent.


    Unless Sui Gu leads his troops to join him.


    Obviously, it''s not worth it.


    Under this premise, the best way is to use the city of Huayin county and consume Zhang Xiu''s troops first.


    The siege has always consumed the most troops. Although Zhang Xiu has more than 30000 troops, if she wants to attack Huayin County, it will take at least half or more of her troops to capture Huayin county.


    This is a great consumption for Zhang Xiu.


    Although Yan Liang is brave, he is not a man of courage and resourcefulness. He knows the basic March and array, and the basic military strategy. When he knows that there is a better way, he will not give up.


    Yan Liang looked at the messenger who had always been preaching, and said, "go back and tell Sui Gu that his suggestion would have been adopted. Next, Ben will do it his way. "


    "Here it is


    The messenger answered and went back.


    Yan Liang decided to make a detour to the rear of Zhang Xiu, and then ordered again to arrange for the soldiers to prepare. However, although Yan Liang gave the order, he didn''t move in during the day. Instead, after dark, he left 2000 soldiers to guard the camp, pretending to be a large army, and then quietly left the camp in the dark.


    When Yan Liang went here, he had nearly 18000 people under his command.


    Among them, there are two thousand cavalry.


    There are also 16000 foot soldiers in the whole army. They have enough dry food to survive in the next 10 days and a half months.If the road is crowded in the daytime, the army will stop. If it''s a remote place, keep going. And at night, it''s always on fire.


    In less than two days, the army led by Yan Liang bypassed the county seat of Huayin county.


    In fact, if you take the official road, it doesn''t take so long. It takes less than half a day to get to the county. But it took more than a day because of a lot of detours.


    After Yan Liang led the army to bypass the county seat, the number of people gradually decreased and the roads gradually widened.


    At this time, Yan Liang was on his way at full speed.


    Yan Liang''s plan is to move on for more than ten miles and stop to stay. Fifteen miles in front of Yan Liang, a cavalry was also on its way to Huayin county.


    This is Chen Dao''s cavalry.


    Chen Dao quietly rushed to the county seat of Huayin county. At first he took the official road, but gradually he took the path to hide his whereabouts.


    As the army was on its way, a sentinel rushed back from the front.


    The sentinel came to Chen Dao with an eager look and reported: "general, we found Yan Liang''s army 13 miles in front of us. Its army consists of two thousand cavalry and fifteen thousand infantry. Like us, they are also taking the path, not the official road. "


    Chen to smell speech, eyebrows up.


    He took the path to Huayin County, but Yan Liang was also taking the path. Now Chen Dao is located in the west of Huayin County, and has not yet arrived at the county.


    However, Yan Liang is still in the army.


    This means that Yan Liang is likely to lead the soldiers, intending to hide behind Zhang Xiu''s army.


    This is to attack the rear of Zhang Xiu.


    Of course, it may be that Yan Liang led his troops to Chang''an to contain the army. This possibility is relatively low.


    Chen Dao is thinking quickly in his heart, because he is now facing two choices.


    First, fight directly with Yan Liang.


    Although Chen Dao had only 3000 elite soldiers in Langya camp. But with Chen Dao''s elite soldiers in Langya camp, even if he met Yan Liang''s army, Chen Dao dared to fight in the first World War. In particular, the soldiers under his command could completely disperse in this wide area, which was enough to hold Yan Liang''s army here.


    Second, avoid Yan Liang''s army.


    If Chen Dao chooses to avoid it, he must change his route to avoid Yan Liang finding his army''s whereabouts. Along the way, Chen Dao arranged for sentries to inquire for information.


    Sentinel did not find the other party''s spies, proving that his whereabouts have not been exposed.


    Chen Dao''s brain is turning quickly, thinking about how to choose. He had never been indecisive. He soon had a plan in his heart and said, "pass the orders, turn around and avoid Yan Liang''s army."


    After the order was given, Chen Dao arranged for the soldiers to go back to the rear to convey the message to Zhang Xiu.


    After all this, Chen Dao digs his way to Huayin county.


    What Chen wants to do now is to capture Huayin county first. As long as the capture of Huayin County, even if Yan Liang hiding in the dark, it is also easy to do. What''s more, Yan Liang thought he was hiding in the dark, but he was exposed to Zhang Xiu''s sight.


    On the contrary, it is easier to calculate Yan Liang.


    Chen to now and Yan Liang fight, easy to scare, so Chen chose to go to Huayin county.


    This is the best choice.

 Chapter 349

    Chen Dao met Yan Liang''s army and finally chose to make a detour. Although there will be more detours on the way to Huayin County, it is worthwhile for the overall situation.


    After all, I know the situation of Yan Liang''s army.


    When Chen Dao made a detour to Huayin County, the sentinel first returned to the location of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    On seeing Zhang Xiu, the sentinel immediately reported Yan Liang''s situation.


    Zhang Xiu heard about Yan Liang''s situation, mind rotation, soon had a general idea. He immediately called Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Pang Tong, told Chen Dao about his discovery of Yan Liang, and finally said: "Yan Liang is hiding in the dark on the surface, but in fact, he has been exposed to our sight. I would like to take this opportunity to adjust the plan. "


    Pang Tong said, "how do you plan to adjust it?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "our previous plan was to capture Huayin county first and attack Yan Liang second. But throughout the overall situation of Hongnong County, Yan Liang''s army was wiped out, and Huayin county was within easy reach. "


    "In this battle, I intend to attack Yan Liang."


    "There are nearly 20000 soldiers under Yan Liang''s command, and we have more than 30000 elite soldiers. It is not difficult to surround him."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "ambushing Yan Liang is the first step of the plan."


    "After the ambush of Yan Liang, the news will surely reach Huayin county. When Sui Gu gets the news, he is likely to bring troops to rescue Yan Liang. At that time, Chen will attack Sui Gu. "


    "When Sui Gu was defeated, he was bound to return to Huayin county."


    "We are in Huayin county. The royal guards have a certain strength. When Sui Gu went out, he could mobilize the power of the royal guards and seize the control of Huayin county. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said: "just imagine, Sui Gu was ambushed by Chen Dao just after he left Huayin county. When Chen retreats to the county seat of Huayin County, the royal guards in the city can hit Sui Gu again. The whole plan is under our control. "


    Zhang Xiu looked around and asked, "what do you think?"


    Pang Tong said: "the Lord''s plan is far-reaching, one link after another, not only to defeat Yan Liang hiding in the dark, but also to defeat Sui Gu and seize Huayin County, which is approved by his humble position."


    Huang Zhong said: "the end will agree!"


    Ganning said: "the end will also agree."


    Wang Yue on one side, also recognized Zhang Xiu''s plan. The earliest plan was to use the royal guards to fight in the city, and then cooperate with Chen to capture Huayin County, leaving Yan Liang aside for the time being, regardless of Yan Liang''s influence.


    Now, Yan Liang is involved in the battlefield.


    It''s a plan that can''t keep up with the change.


    Everyone had no opinion. Zhang Xiu said immediately, "if that''s the case, take action. Wang Yue, you immediately send a letter to Chen Dao and the royal guards in Huayin County, telling them what to do in the future. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue was ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    Zhang Xiu also issued the order to slow down the speed of advance, and for the time being, to inquire about Yan Liang''s situation. To ambush Yan Liang, at least until Yan Liang''s army stops, there is a chance to ambush Yan Liang.


    After the order was passed on, the army slowed down.


    As the speed slows down, the accompanying Xu you finds out.


    Now, Xu you is riding in a prison car. At least he is a famous person in the world, but here in Zhang Xiu, there is no such treatment as a famous person in the world. On the contrary, life is very sad.


    Not only did the soldiers in the army speak ill of him, but they also ate badly.


    In a few months, Xu you was much thinner.


    When the war was coming, Xu you became more and more nervous. Because he worried that he would lose the value of use, Zhang Xiu would kill him. He thinks that Zhang Xiu is a very cold person who can say and do.


    Today''s Xu you does not dare to provoke Zhang Xiu.


    "I want to see Zhang Xiu!"


    Xu you called out loud.


    He kept shaking the prison car, making it clatter, even making it wobble on the way. The soldiers in charge of guarding Xu you immediately reported to Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue learned that, quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reported Xu you''s request.


    Zhang Xiu said, "bring people here!"


    Wang Yue passed on the order. Soon, Xu you was brought by the soldiers.


    Xu you''s hair is in a mess, and his beard has not been sorted out. He is not as famous as before, but rather sloppy. He stood in front of Zhang Xiu and said, "General Zhang, I know an important news about Yan Liang. I''ll make an exchange with you. As long as you promise to let me go, I''ll tell you the news. You''re worth it, I promise


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Xu you suddenly raised his eyebrows and continued: "what I know is about Yan Liang''s military provisions. Don''t you want to know?"


    "I don''t want to know."


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Now he has a way to ambush Yan Liang. Even if he knows the location of Yan Liang''s military provisions, what''s the significance? What''s more, as long as Yan Liang is destroyed, it''s easy to take over the grain that Yan Liang hoards.As for Xu you, Zhang Xiu will not let go.


    Xu you is still valuable.


    It''s like squeezing a sponge. Even if Xu you has a little value, Zhang Xiu will squeeze Xu you dry.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have the idea to surrender to Xu you.


    He doesn''t want to spoil a pot of soup just because of a mouse excrement like Xu you.


    Zhang Xiu sits firmly in the army account, calm and incomparable, but Xu you is anxious, some crazy way: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want? If you want to kill me, do it. Kill me, it''s over. "


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t worry, I won''t kill you for the time being."


    Brush!


    Xu you''s face changed again.


    For the time being!


    Is it just temporary?


    Such a result is hard for Xu you to bear. He is ambitious, determined to help the Dragon ascend the throne, to be a marquis. But now, he is far away from his goal, which can now die in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    Xu you is biting a tooth, looking at Zhang Xiu, ask a way: "how do you want after all?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I am a very pure and simple person. I have gratitude and revenge. If Zhang Xiu is aimed at me, I will get it back bit by bit. I''ve never been a good man, and I''ll double my claim. "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu grinned.


    The exposed white teeth made Xu you feel cold.


    Xu you clenched his fist, very angry, but there was no way to take Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "who let you Xu you come to Chang''an to plan against me? If you don''t come to Chang''an, you and I will not fight on the battlefield. "


    "Xu you, if you have the courage to commit suicide, I will not take advantage of your opportunity. You can choose to commit suicide. I can say it and do it. I won''t stop you. "


    "If you don''t have the courage to commit suicide, don''t show up in front of me."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you are useless now."


    Xu you has lived for decades and has never been so humiliated.


    Xu you''s heart, full of anger, change is before, change is in Jizhou, Zhang Xiu dare to say such a thing in front of his face, do not need Xu you to appear in person, just need Xu you''s eyes, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu is dead.


    Xu you is helpless now.


    After the anger in Xu you''s heart, there was a deep sadness.


    At this moment, Xu you bent his back, almost eager to say: "what do you want to know, as long as I know, I am willing to say. Even the news of Yuan Shao is clear to me. Do you really have such a strong heart that you don''t want to give me a chance? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t need you for the moment. OK, you can go down."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let people take Xu you away.


    In Xu you''s loud cry, he was finally taken away. Pang Tong looked at all this, laughed and said, "Lord, Xu you is also a famous person in the world. You really don''t admit him."


    "No surrender!"


    Zhang Xiu answered without hesitation.


    For Zhang Xiu, since he knows what kind of person Xu you is, it is impossible for him to surrender.


    Now it''s time to clean up Xu you.


    Finally, let Xu you completely conquered, become his weapon against Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 350

    The army was still on its way. After slowing down, it went on for more than half a day. A sentinel sent back news that Chen Dao had received a message that he would temporarily hide when he arrived near Huayin county.


    At the same time, another sentinel reported that Yan Liang''s army had also camped.


    According to the information sent back by the sentinel, Yan Liang is hiding in a low-lying position in the mountain. Knowing that this is the case, Zhang Xiu''s heart is alive.


    In the evening, troops were stationed.


    After the army set up camp, Zhang Xiu called Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to take charge of everything in the camp, while Zhang Xiu quietly left the camp with Huang Zhong, Deng Zhan and Wang Yue, as well as the leading royal guards, and went to the place where Yan Liang''s army was stationed.


    The sentinel report is not comprehensive after all.


    Zhang Xiu wants to prepare to deal with Yan Liang, must inquire about the situation personally.


    Fortunately, Zhang Xiu''s position is not far from Yan Liang''s garrison, which is more than ten miles away. Such a journey, Zhang Xiu and others riding on horseback, time is not long, then also close.


    After several people approached, they put out the torch.


    Although it''s September now, a crescent moon rises into the sky. Under the bright moonlight, you can clearly see the situation on the ground.


    Zhang Xiu with people, quickly climbed to a high ground, looking down at the location of Yan Liang camp.


    I have to say that Yan Liang is also powerful.


    This location is very remote, so it''s really easy to hide. Especially near the camp, there are many woods all over the place, which increases the concealment of this area and makes it difficult to be found.


    Its location is not the lowest part of the low-lying area.


    Even if there is heavy rain, it will not be submerged first. If Chen had not found out early, Zhang Xiu would not have known that Yan Liang had arrived. Zhang Xiu looked at the sentry who was leading the way and asked, "after you inquired about Yan Liang, was there any water source near here?"


    "Yes!"


    The sentry nodded.


    Zhang xiudao: "what is the situation?"


    Thinking that he couldn''t speak clearly, the sentry immediately squatted down, drew a rough landform on the ground with a branch, drew the area where Yan Liang was, and then said, "general, Yan Liang''s location is a depression."


    "The greatest advantage of this place is that there are woods around it, so it''s easy to hide. But in fact, this area is lower than the surrounding ground. We have measured the size of the depression, which is about six li in circumference. "


    "It''s very wide."


    "There are a lot of trees, some small rivers and plenty of water."


    "Above the depression, just two miles away, there is a lake and a river path. This river is a branch of Weihe River. Although it''s autumn and the river is not as turbulent as it is in summer, the current is also quite large. "


    "That''s about it," said the sentinel


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu is still pondering.


    Huang Zhong said, "the Lord means to flood Yan Liang with the help of water?"


    Zhang Xiu nodded: "Yan Liang''s initiative to hide in the depression is like putting his head in front of me. Yan Liang is quite skillful in the art of war, but he did not consider the problem of flooding. Under such circumstances, we naturally can''t miss the opportunity. We can act quietly. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at the sentry again and said, "which direction is the lake and the river in the depression?"


    The sentry replied, "the lake is in the southwest and the south. It''s very large. The direction of the river''s path is to the east of the depression. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face is full of smiles.


    "In this way, we can dig the dam of the lake and dig a ditch to connect the river and the depression," Zhang said


    The sentinel listened without a word.


    Pang Tong added: "Lord, it would be better if there is rain in the near future. When a heavy rain came down, the river rose and the water level in the lake rose. At that time, flooding Yan Liang is the best way. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it depends on whether the Lord appreciates us. No matter what, we must do so."


    Pang Tong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and said, "Han Sheng, how do you do it? Should you know?"


    "I see!"


    Huang Zhong replied solemnly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go back to the barracks. When you go back, you should make arrangements as soon as possible. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu led a group back to the army camp. It was still early in the morning before dawn. Gan Ning has never had a rest. At the moment when Zhang Xiu returns, Gan Ning comes and asks: "Lord, what''s the situation like?"


    After sitting down, Zhang Xiu said, "here comes the fighter."


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu simply said the situation. Gan Ning was excited when she heard it, and said, "Yan Liang is so arrogant that he didn''t consider the danger of the depression."


    "It''s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us.""It''s a matter of killing Yan Liang."


    Gan Ning clenched his fist and said, "but we are only a few miles away from Huayin county. It may not be easy to excavate rivers and roads for water diversion in such a short period of time. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "no harm, as long as more soldiers are sent, the distance of two miles, at most one day, is enough to complete the excavation. And we slowed down the speed of the road, and then it is normal to stop the troops. Tomorrow, when the army marches for an hour in the morning, it will stop to camp and stop on its way. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning nodded.


    Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning discuss tomorrow''s action plan before rest, Huang Zhong can''t rest for the time being. He went back to his camp, quickly transferred the commander of the flying bear army, and asked the people to lead the soldiers of the flying bear army on their way all night to carry out the order.


    Huang Zhong is all busy, and it''s almost dawn. Huang Zhong didn''t sleep at all. He washed his face with cold water to refresh himself and keep busy.


    It''s not long. It''s bright.


    The army set out for Huayin county. After walking for an hour, the army stopped and stationed in the same place, but did not continue to go to Huayin county. Half an hour later, it was discovered by Yan Liang''s sentry.


    The sentinel sent the news back to the hollow.


    When Yan Liang got the news, he frowned and looked a little serious. He murmured, "Zhang Xiu is still more than 20 miles away from Huayin county. Is it difficult for Zhang Xiu not to enter the army, but to settle down? "


    Yan Liang couldn''t see through Zhang Xiu''s actions.


    The more Yan Liang couldn''t see through, the more he didn''t take any action in a hurry. Instead, he used static braking to arrange people to rush to Huayin county and tell Sui Gu the news, so that Sui Gu can stabilize his mind and don''t be impatient.


    Sui Gu got the news from Yan Liang. He was not impatient or sent troops.


    His troops are only over 10000.


    If you go out of the city to fight, it is tantamount to attacking the other''s strong points with your own short points and giving up your biggest advantage.


    This is what Sui Gu doesn''t want.


    Even if Yan Liang does not say, he will not send troops.


    Sui Gu arranged for the soldiers to go out of the city to reply to Yan Liang''s letter. Then he left the barracks and went up to the head of the city to inspect the defense on the head of the city to ensure that the defense on the head of the city was enough to block Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    When Sui Gu constantly strengthened his defense, the city''s royal guards were stationed.


    In Zhang Fang''s house.


    Yesterday, Zhang Fang also received a letter from Wang Yue about the change of the plan.


    Originally, everything was ready for Zhang Fang, and there were 300 Rangers under his command. There are three hundred Rangers, enough to win the west gate of Huayin county and let Chen Dao lead the soldiers to kill them.


    Unfortunately, the plan has changed.


    Wang Yue''s new plan for Zhang Fang is to let Zhang Fang contact the people in the city and persuade the big families in the city to turn to Zhang Xiu. After Sui Gu left Huayin county with his troops, Zhang Fang and the people in the city took over Huayin county and controlled the city.


    This is a new plan.


    The change of the plan has made Zhang Fang more difficult. But in Zhang Fang''s view, it is not too difficult.


    Towards noon, he had a general idea in his mind.

 Chapter 351

    Among the Rangers, someone can''t wait to urge Zhang Fang to ask when he plans to start? Zhang Fang talked about the task change and the next task.


    When the Rangers heard this, they didn''t say anything.


    It''s normal to change plans when fighting on the battlefield.


    However, it has been suggested that persuading the big families in Huayin will not be easy.


    Zhang Fang looked at the subordinates and said slowly, "if there is no difficulty in doing anything, you just need to bend down to complete it. What else do you need us to do?"


    "Only those who can really share the heavy responsibilities for general Zhang, overcome the difficulties and make great contributions, can they be useful people."


    "The Yang family in Huayin County complained about Sui Gu. After all, when Sui Gu entered the city and recruited a large number of grain, the Yang family was the first to bear the brunt and suffered huge losses. "


    "My goal is to lobby the Yang family in Hongnong County," Zhang said. The Yang family in Huayin County of Hongnong county is the vein where Yang Biao lived. "


    "Hongnong Yang family is famous all over the world."


    "If Hongnong and the Yang family make a move, we will take Huayin County as easily as we can."


    Zhang Fang put forward the plan.


    When they heard this, they all looked awe inspiring.


    Yang Biao is a well-known official in the world. He is the leader of the Han Dynasty officials. He has successively served as Sikong, situ and Taiwei with high reputation. When Dong Zhuo intended to move the capital, Yang Biao argued. When the emperor was in trouble in Luoyang, Yang Biao did his best to protect the Lord. In particular, Yang Biao''s great grandfather, Yang Zhen, his grandfather, Yang Bing, and his father, Yang Ci, were all listed as Taiwei.


    Hongnong, Yang family, four generations of Sangong.


    Even if Yang Biao went to Xudu with the emperor, the Yang family had already moved away. The Yang family in Huayin county was just the ancestral home, just a branch of the Yang family, guarding the ancestral temple, but its strength was not weak.


    Zhang Fang has a lot of brains, otherwise, he would not be liked by Wang Yue. He turned his eyes and saw the look of the people. He said with a smile, "if you can persuade yang to help, it''s easy to defeat Sui Gu."


    Zhang Fang put forward the general direction.


    The following Rangers, after listening to them one by one, showed admiration on their faces, but some people were worried. They solemnly said, "chief, can Rangers like us enter the Yang family?"


    In front of Hongnong Yang, they couldn''t even compare with a doorman.


    You know, the Hongnong Yang family is comparable to the yuan family of Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Fang laughed and held up his head and said, "who said I''m going to the Yang family as a Ranger? I''m going to the Yang family as a royal guard."


    Ranger son way: "in case, your identity exposed?"


    Zhang Fang said: "Hongnong Yang, there is no contradiction with us. I don''t think it will go wrong. What''s more, if we seek wealth insurance, if we ask for wealth, there will be risks. "


    "Just imagine, if Chen Dao''s army enters Huayin county to seize the city, we may be able to do both inside and outside. But in fact, the credit is limited. "


    "But now, with the strength of the royal guards of Huayin County, we have won Hongnong county."


    "What a credit


    "Which of us, the Rangers, is not licking blood on the edge of the knife, and which is not carrying a few lives. Do you lose your blood when you become the royal guards? "


    When this remark came out, everyone nodded solemnly. When I look at Zhang Fang, I admire him even more.


    Zhang Fang, with a solemn face, got up and said, "wait here. I''ll go to the Yang''s house to see you."


    "Wait a minute, chief!"


    In the crowd, a Ranger opened his mouth.


    Zhang Fang said, "what''s the matter?"


    The Ranger said, "do you know what the Yang family is like now


    Zhang Fang said with a slight smile, "I don''t know. It doesn''t matter. Of course, I know. Anyway, I''m from Huayin county. I don''t even know what happened to Hongnong''s Yang family. Isn''t that a shame? "


    Ranger nodded and said nothing more.


    Zhang Fang went to change into a splendid dress and dress up more seriously. As the saying goes, people rely on clothes and Buddha relies on gold. After changing his clothes, Zhang Fang left the house and went straight to the location of Hongnong''s Yang family.


    The Hongnong Yang family is a great family.


    This is a real family of Zanying, a real family of officials, and a distinguished family.


    The ancestral residence of the Yang family covers an area of less than ten mu. The residence is not luxurious, but magnificent, simple and profound.


    Zhang Fang arrived on horseback. After dismounting, he looked at the magnificent house with a dignified look on his face.


    Looking at the plaque, it was his home.


    He didn''t dare to set foot at all.


    How dare you come at the gate of the Yang family. But now, it''s different. He is under the command of Zhang Xiu. Although he is the lowest level of the royal guards, his identity is different.


    He is an official!


    Even though his official position is humble, in some cases, he can also represent Zhang Xiu.


    Like now!


    At this time, when Zhang Fang looked at the Yang family again, he did not have the awe of the past in his eyes, but had a touch of expectation. He strode forward to the door and knocked."Bang! Bang


    The knocks continued for a while.


    Zhang Fang stopped and stood at the door waiting quietly. After a while, the door creaked open. The porter of the Yang family opened the door, looked at Zhang Fang and said, "who are you and what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Fang solemnly said, "next, Zhang Fang, I''m from Chang''an. I''d like to see Mr. Yang Yong, the Yang family."


    Yang Yong is Yang Biao''s cousin.


    His age is slightly younger than Yang Biao, and now he is more than 50 years old. He was the one who stayed at the ancestral home of the Yang family. Yang Yong''s pulse was still in Huayin county.


    When Zhang Fang said that he had come from Chang''an, the doorman thought of something. His heart was awe inspiring and he said, "where''s the invitation?"


    Zhang Fang was overjoyed and immediately handed in the invitation.


    The porter took a wary look at Zhang Fang and quickly turned to leave. After a short time, the porter came back to the door again, looked at Zhang Fang, and said, "master, please come to the study and follow me."


    "Thank you very much."


    After thanking Zhang Fang, he followed the porter and went straight to the study.


    At the moment, Zhang Fang was determined.


    Although he was born as a Ranger, he was also proficient in literature and ink, but he was born in a bad way. So even if there are some abilities and talents, there is no room for them to display. Finally, they become a Ranger.


    Soon, Zhang Fang entered the study.


    Yang Yong was in his early fifties. He was thin and his hair was already gray. He looked old. He was dressed in a generous dress and sat on the throne. Looking at Zhang Fang entering, his voice was hoarse and he said, "you have come from Chang''an. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Fang bowed and said, "please forgive me. I''m not from Chang''an, but at the command of the general in the south of Chang''an town. If you deceive Mr. Yang, please forgive him. "


    Yang Yong stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "come on, what''s the matter?"


    Yang Yong was not angry at Zhang Fang''s words. This is because no matter whether they are on Chang''an''s orders or from Chang''an, they all express the same meaning. They are all Zhang Xiu''s people, and there is no difference.


    Zhang Fangzheng color way: "ask to see Yang Gong, it is to borrow troops from Yang family."


    Yang Yong said with a smile: "borrowing troops? There are so many people in the Yang family that you can''t borrow any soldiers. This is a joke. If you want to do something like this, I''m afraid you can only go back the same way. "


    After a pause, Yang Yong continued: "slowly speaking, my Yang family has no troops, even if they have troops. But now there''s Sui Gu''s army in the city. Even if my Yang family sends troops, it''s useless. "


    "This is a fallacy!"


    Zhang Fang said, shaking his head.


    Yang Yong said: "how to say?"


    For Chang''an Zhang Xiu''s situation, Yang Yong has already heard about it, and knows that Zhang Xiu''s strength is very strong. Just like this, Yang Yong spoke with patience. If he had been sent by other princes, Yang Yong would have banished people for a long time.

 Chapter 352

    Zhang Fang looked calm and said, "I understand Yang Gong''s worries. If this matter is put on me, let me attack Sui Gu directly, I also can''t promise. After all, it''s beating the stone with the egg and overstating one''s ability. "


    Yang Yong said, "just understand."


    Zhang Fei continued: "this time, I asked Yang Gong to borrow his troops, not to send them directly. This time, it was a gift to Mr. Yang. For the Lord Yang and even for the Yang family, there will be no harm and no danger. "


    "The precondition for Yang Gong to help me was that Sui Gu led the army to leave Huayin county. In the case of empty forces in the county seat, Yang Gong sent troops to help me, and it was as easy as hand to seize the county seat. "


    "If there are many troops in the city, I will not do it."


    "Once the troops in the city are empty, it is not difficult for Yang Gong to capture the county."


    Zhang Fang continued: "what does Yang Gong think?"


    When Yang Yong heard this, he looked a little better.


    If Zhang Fang wants to set up the White Wolf empty handed and ask him to attack Sui Gu, Yang Yong can''t agree. His Yang family''s son-in-law is also raised by his parents. They are all flesh babies, and they can''t be taken to death at will.


    But if the city is empty, it will be easier to capture Huayin county.


    However, Yang Yong did not immediately agree.


    Yang Yongzheng said: "even if I can help you win Huayin County, what can I do? In the twinkling of an eye, Sui Gu will lead the army back. When the time comes, the strength in my hand will be in front of Sui Gu. It''s a mantis arm. It''s impossible to block Sui Gu. "


    Zhang Fang was delighted.


    Yang Yong said that, which is obviously exciting.


    "He can''t come back," Zhang said


    Yang Yong said, "why?"


    Zhang Fang explained: "Zhennan General Zhang Xiu, led by the army from Chang''an, has entered the territory of Huayin county. Under general Zhang''s army, Sui Gu would surely be defeated. General Zhang killed Xiongnu, defeated Cao Cao, and cut Duan to simmer. He was invincible. He was just suigu, which is not worth mentioning. "


    Yang Yong said: "how can you conclude that Sui Gu Hui will lead the army to attack? According to my guess, even if Zhang Xiu''s army is killed, Sui Gu is most likely to take advantage of the city defense of Huayin County, so he can''t take the initiative to fight. "


    Zhang Fang said with a smile: "I can''t tell you the specific reason. In a word, I only need Yang Gong to help me when the city is empty. Yang Gong, this is a matter of great benefit but no harm. "


    In fact, Zhang Fang did not know whether Sui Gu would send troops.


    Zhang Fang can only sell the story.


    After a pause, Zhang Fang continued: "Mr. Yang, I''m from an ordinary family and I don''t have much knowledge, but I''ve heard people from all over the world say something about the Xun family in Yingchuan. I don''t know. Yang Gong is interested in listening to it. "


    Yang Yong said, "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhang Fang took a deep breath. He went over the language he had already organized and said, "there are Xunzi and Xunyou in Yingchuan. They are in high positions under the command of Cao Cao. They are highly valued by Cao Cao."


    "In addition, Xun Chen and others worked under Yuan Shao''s command, which was also valued by Yuan Shao."


    "This is the idea of Xunzi in Yingchuan."


    "There is no one to bet on."


    Zhang Fang said, "it is undeniable that both Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are extremely powerful princes. Both sides of the Xunzi family bet that if either side overturns in the future, the Xunzi family will not be affected. "


    "Today, the Hongnong Yang family, headed by Yang Biao, the patriarch, holds a post in the imperial court, which is equivalent to holding a post under Cao Cao."


    "I''ve heard that Yang Taiwei''s prestige is too high for Cao Cao to fear. Now Yang Taiwei''s situation is not very good. According to some Rangers, Yang Taiwei was once imprisoned by Cao Cao. Even after he was released from prison, he was idle at home. "


    "The Xun family can bet on both sides. Why can''t the Yang family?"


    Speaking of this, Zhang Fang said: "if I were Yang Gong, I would seize this opportunity. Instead of missing an opportunity, when you want to turn it around, you find it''s too late. "


    After hearing this, Yang Yong looks at Zhang Fang in surprise.


    The man has insight.


    It''s not easy.


    Yang Yong said with a smile, "you have a sharp mouth. It''s really powerful."


    Zhang Fang said: "Mr. Yang, I''m just talking about the matter on the basis of the facts. Even if I have sharp teeth and sharp mouth, if I don''t explain the facts, Yang Gong will not agree with me. "


    "It''s true," Yang said


    Seeing Yang Yong''s gentle attitude, Zhang Fang was relieved. He had a smile on his face and said, "well, did Yang Gong promise to lend me soldiers?"


    "Yes


    Yang Yong nodded.


    After a pause, Yang Yong continued: "but my Yang family''s children must be under the command of my Yang family."


    Zhang Fang said, "who is in charge?"


    Yang Yongzheng said, "Yang Xiu, the son of my elder brother Yang Biao, will direct the children of the Yang family."


    "Hiss!"


    Zhang Fang took a cool breath when he heard the speech.Yang Biao is a famous loyal minister in the world. The whole country respects him. Yang Xiu, Yang Biao''s son, wanted to take part in the command personally, which surprised Zhang Fang. This was excellent.


    Zhang Fang stabilized his mind and asked, "can I meet young master Yang?"


    "No problem!"


    Yang Yong responded directly.


    Yang Biao was an official in Xudu, while Yang Xiu stayed in his ancestral home. This is Yang Biao''s arrangement, because after Yang Biao went to Xudu, he didn''t know his situation, so he left Yang Xiu in Huayin county.


    After all, Yang Biao is Yang Xiu''s only son.


    He didn''t want Yang Xiuheng to suffer disaster.


    Yang Yong arranged for someone to deliver the letter. In a short time, a handsome young man with a body length of more than eight feet, wearing a broad collar shirt and flowing sleeves strode forward.


    Young people are Yang Xiu.


    Today, Yang Xiu is in his early twenties, with a sword eyebrow and a handsome head. Moreover, Yang Xiu has been intelligent since he was a child. He is deeply loved by Yang Biao and praised by the Yang family.


    The whole Yang family believes that the Yang family will surely be able to reach a higher level in Yang Xiu''s generation.


    Yang Xiu''s future is limitless.


    Yang Xiu bowed his hand to Yang Yong and asked, "uncle, what''s the matter?"


    Yang Yong immediately said Zhang Fang''s intention, and also said that he wanted to help Zhang Xiu capture Huayin county. At last, he said: "the Yang family sent troops to help Zhang Xiu. It''s under your full command. You have been with your father since you were a child. You are familiar with government affairs and military strategies. This time, you''re going to give it a try. "


    "Yes, nephew," Yang said


    When Zhang Fang saw Yang Xiu, there was a touch of emotion on his rough cheek.


    He is worthy of being a son of a noble family.


    He can''t learn this bearing.


    Zhang Fang asked: "dare to ask Mr. Yang, how many soldiers did the Yang family help this time?"


    Yang Yong replied, "1500 soldiers."


    "No, two thousand five hundred."


    Yang Xiu heard Yang Yong''s answer, adjusted the number of support, and then motioned Yang Yong with his eyes.


    Seeing this, Yang Yong did not refute.


    When Zhang Fang heard that there were 2500 people, he was overjoyed and said, "I admire young master Yang for his bravery. Now that it''s settled, I''ll go back to the preparation immediately. Once the time is ripe, I will ask young master Yang to send troops to help. "


    "No problem!"


    Yang Xiu answered directly.


    Zhang Fang did not stay and strode away.


    In the study, Yang Yong looked at Yang Xiu and said, "Xiuer, I just said that I would transfer 1500 private soldiers to help Zhang Xiu, but you proposed 2500 people. These 2500 people are the foundation of our Yang family''s foothold in Hongnong and all the strength of the Yang family. If anything goes wrong, the consequences will be great. "


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "uncle, I think Zhang Xiu will win. Zhang Xiu''s people have been lurking in the city, but Sui Gu has never been aware of it, which shows Zhang Xiu''s wisdom. In that case, why not add a little more strength? When Zhang Xiu''s situation is more difficult, the greater the effort, Zhang Xiu can remember our credit. "


    Yang Yong said: "it''s true. It''s easy to add icing on the cake, but it''s hard to send charcoal in the snow. Our experience is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to Zhang Xiu. "


    Yang xiudao: "what my uncle said is very true."


    But in Yang Xiu''s heart, he really thought that even if the Yang family sent troops, they would not be able to send charcoal in the snow. At best, the Yang family helped Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 353

    Although the weather in September is sunny, it is no longer hot in summer.


    Yan Liang led the army, hiding in the depression. To this day, Yan Liang is still a wise pearl. Because in Yan Liang''s view, he will win this battle without doubt and will not lose it.


    Yan Liang arranges sentinel to watch the movements of Zhang Xiu''s army from a distance, so as to respond at any time.


    "Newspaper!"


    The voice of the soldiers came.


    "Rustle!"


    The sentry''s foot was in the woods, making a sound. Sentry all the way in a hurry, soon came to Yan Liang''s side. His breath was a little short, and he reported: "general, the news came back from the front line. When Zhang Xiu''s army was more than ten miles away from Huayin County, it was no longer on its way and stationed there. At the moment, I don''t know what Zhang Xiu''s picture is? "


    Yan Liang was silent when he heard the news.


    Zhang Xiu''s army stopped, the news had been sent back, he knew. But at that time, Yan Liang thought that Zhang Xiu was temporarily stopped, but he did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s army would stop, which was beyond his expectation.


    Yan Liangdao: "have you ever inquired into the secret of Zhang Xiu''s army?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    The sentry shook his head and replied with helpless expression.


    Zhang Xiu has been staring at the camp, has never found anything, they have no way. What''s more, the barracks of tens of thousands of people are stationed, covering a very wide area. The Sentinels can only look at the door and nearby, but they can''t look at the whole camp. After all, there is not enough manpower.


    Yan Liangdao: "explore again!"


    "Here it is


    The sentry got the order and turned back.


    As soon as the sentry left, dark clouds began to gather in the sky. The sun in the sky disappeared and the sky overcast. Without the sun, the air seemed to cool down and the temperature dropped a lot.


    Yan Liang looked up at the sky, now the weather may rain. Yan Liang immediately called for the general and told him to mobilize soldiers to set up tents on flat and open terrain to shelter from the rain.


    In addition, Yan Liang asked the soldiers to dig ditches for drainage.


    After all, I''m in a depression.


    Although it is not the bottom of the depression and the terrain is slightly higher, it is easy to accumulate water in case of rainstorm.


    After arranging everything, Yan Liang continued to think about the reason why Zhang Xiu stopped moving forward. For a moment, he couldn''t think of a reason.


    "Eh, is it that Zhang Xiu wants to outwit Huayin City?"


    "I remember when Xu you was there, he once analyzed Zhang Xiu''s military tactics and said that Zhang Xiu was good at using strange weapons and liked to win by surprise. Zhang Xiu suddenly ordered the army to stop. Is it a surprise attack? "


    Yan Liang muttered to himself: "Zhang Xiu''s army, stationed far away from Huayin County, can be said to deliberately paralyze Sui Gu."


    "But it doesn''t make sense."


    "After all, Sui Gu was in the city with more than 10000 troops. Even if Zhang Xiu wanted to surprise, it was impossible to enter the city. As long as Zhang Xiu can''t enter Huayin County, everything is in vain. "


    Yan Liang said to himself.


    At this time, the memory of Yan Youliang began.


    Although Yan Liang himself knows strategy, he is not a professional after all. It''s his old business to fight the enemy. It''s very easy, but it''s hard for him to give advice when the situation is more complicated.


    That''s what the counselor did.


    Yan Liang frowned and sighed: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, how do you think about it? How will you fight this battle and capture Huayin county? "


    "Tick! Tick and tick


    In the sky, it began to drizzle.


    The light rain rustled in the forest.


    Fortunately, it didn''t rain much. Yan Liang looked at it and didn''t worry. Because he had made arrangements in advance, there was a drainage ditch, so he didn''t pay attention to it. Yan Liang really can not think of the reason, simply to static brake, no longer consider, still stay in the mountains.


    And a few miles away from Yan Liang''s army, above the depression.


    No matter outside the lake or beside the river, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are digging ditches. One by one, soldiers rolled up their sleeves, sweated like rain, and rushed to work.


    "Sons, whether we can defeat Yan Liang in this battle depends on our present efforts."


    "If we finish earlier, we can launch an offensive earlier."


    General in charge, shout back and forth.


    He wants to cheer up the soldiers.


    Countless soldiers went all out to dig the ditch when it began to rain. The rain fell, the heat subsided, and the soldiers were even more energetic.


    After all, it''s drizzling and the air is cool, which is good for catching up.


    Time goes by.


    In the evening, the light rain gradually turned into heavy rain. The rain was majestic, falling and soaking the ground.


    On the ground, there''s water.


    For the soldiers who hurry up, they are even more energetic. Because of the heavy rain, the river rises and the water level rises. This is the best weather for water attack, which can flood Yan Liang to the maximum extent.Moreover, under the rain, the ground is moist and the soil is soft, so it is better to excavate.


    The soldiers rushed all night and finished the excavation in the early hours of the morning. A ditch, ten feet wide and six feet deep, connects the river and the depression. Only a dam is built near the river. As long as the dam is not dug, the river will not pour into the depression.


    By the time the excavation was completed, it was past midnight, and it was in the middle of the morning.


    The road connecting the lake has also been excavated.


    In Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    When Huang Zhong came to the camp in a hurry, it was almost midnight. Although Huang Zhong brought a bamboo hat, the rain was so heavy that there were fine raindrops on his hair.


    Rao is so, but Huang Zhong''s spirit is excellent.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong quickly reported: "Lord, the three ditches have been connected. In particular, it rained heavily this evening. After several hours of rain, it did not decrease. Now that the river is rising, it''s a great opportunity to attack. Water diversion irrigation, Yan Liang will be defeated


    Zhang xiudao said: "the order goes down, three places burst the dike at the same time. In addition, they mobilized the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army to surround the depression of Yan Liang''s garrison. Next, let''s catch turtles in a jar. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "when Yan Liang''s army began to break through, it released a certain vacancy for some soldiers to escape, so that Sui Gu could know. Only in this way can we fight against Huayin County, "


    " I understand


    Huang Zhong replied again.


    Zhang Xiu waves her hand and Huang Zhong leaves quickly.


    When Huang Zhong walked out of the camp, there was a flash of light and thunder over the bright night of the camp. At the next moment, the thunder exploded and thundered all over the world.


    After that, it''s almost dawn.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes raised a touch of expectation. He reached out to wipe the rain on his face and strode away.


    It''s raining harder and harder.


    Rain washed, the whole world is shrouded in a curtain of rain.


    For Yan Liang, who is in a depression, this is not good news. Although Yan Liang arranged for people to dig drainage ditches early, so as to facilitate drainage and prevent the camp from being soaked in water.


    But the rain was too heavy.


    When Yan Liang was half asleep, he suddenly woke up to the thunder. He got up quickly, put on his armor and went outside the camp.


    In Yan Liang''s camp, wood was built on the ground. So even if there is water on the ground, Yan Liang''s camp will not be affected in a short time, but when Yan Liang looks around, there is water in this area.


    Even if it is not the lowest lying position, even if the water is flowing fast along the drainage ditch, the water potential is too big, and the rain on it flows down. It first washes the camp once, and then continues down the camp.


    In this case, the camp was greatly affected, and the military equipment was soaked.


    When Yan Liang saw this scene, he felt a thump in his heart.


    It''s not good!


    If it continues to rain like this, his troops will not be soaked in the rain, but they will be washed away by the rain all the time. The situation is quite unfavorable.

 Chapter 354

    Yan Liang made a quick decision and said, "come on!"


    A soldier came quickly and stood beside Yan Liang.


    Yan Liang, with a solemn look, said, "beat the drum and gather the soldiers. We''ll pull out the camp and get out of this place at once. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to send orders at once.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war ring from the night sky.


    After the war drum sounded, the soldiers in the army quickly ran out of the tent to gather.


    Under the rain at night, the army formed an array.


    The soldiers under Yan Liang''s command were all carrying dry food. They didn''t have much clothes, so it was easy to pack up. One by one, they quickly put on their hats and coir raincoats, and then stood in the pouring rain.


    It''s just that when the ground is muddy by the heavy rain, it''s not good for marching.


    The soldier had a bitter look on his face.


    In the evening, it''s raining heavily, and I have to drive. I''m tired to death.


    The soldier looked helpless, but he had to stick to it.


    When Yan Liang saw that the soldiers had assembled, he ordered, "let''s go!"


    Fortunately, it''s getting brighter. Although it''s a little hazy, I can see the road clearly. But for ordinary soldiers, they just need to walk on the muddy road. But for the war horse, such a muddy road is a deep one and a shallow one.


    All cavalry, get off the horse and go.


    The horses have to be led.


    After walking for about two quarters of an hour, the eastern sky was already bright.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, on the slope in the distance, there seemed to be a great sound.


    When many soldiers heard this, they immediately had a discussion.


    One by one, they were in a panic.


    Yan Liang also heard the rumbling sound coming from the front, which became more and more urgent and closer. After hearing this for a while, Yan Liang suddenly changed his face. He said in a loud voice, "there is a river coming. Get out of the way. Get ready to get out of the way."


    After Yan Liang gave the order, he took the horse and came to a big tree. He stretched out his hand and tugged at a tree trunk.


    Boom!!


    The mighty river, washed down.


    It rained heavily last night, and the water in the river and the lake rose a lot. After Huang Zhong''s soldiers dug up the dam, the surging river directly irrigated it.


    This time, it was not one place, but three places.


    There are channels in the river.


    Near the lake, there are two more ditches.


    Three local water irrigation, coupled with torrential rain, the mighty water scour, the water is extremely ferocious, ferocious force, people can not prevent. Yan Liang''s body was directly overturned by the water, but he was not steady.


    The soldiers close to the trunk of the tree have stabilized, but many of them have not.


    Countless people fell to the ground.


    Yan Liang wiped the rain on his face and roared, "come on, let''s avoid here and keep going up."


    Seeing that the momentum of the first wave of scouring had passed, he immediately ordered him to go up. With such a turbulent River, this depression may eventually become a river. This is a mountain forest depression. There is no one in it. Even if it becomes a river, it will have no effect.


    The problem is that Yan Liang''s army is all here, so we must leave as soon as possible.


    Although the subsequent impact of the river is smaller than before, especially after the woods resist the diversion, many soldiers are drowned.


    A war horse, washed away.


    Many soldiers were also washed away.


    Even if many soldiers who have not been washed away have slack weapons, they are all scattered. The bamboo hat and coir raincoat have already disappeared.


    The whole scene is a mess.


    When Yan Liang saw all this, he was very angry. Only Yan Liang''s heart, but carefully pondering, this place''s topography, he knows. Even if there is heavy rain, even if it is so heavy, the depression will not be affected.


    There can''t be a flood of water.


    However, such a large river erosion is obviously abnormal.


    "It''s a trick!"


    Yan Liang''s heart, suddenly raised such an idea.


    Yan Liang''s heart was in a mess, very impatient. He has paid attention to the surrounding situation, but he has not noticed why some people are lurking nearby and digging ditches.


    Is Zhang Xiu here?


    In Yan Liang''s heart, he began to play drums.


    However, at this time, it is no longer the time to consider why they were ambushed. We must find a way to leave here.


    "Get out, get out."


    Yan Liang cried out and continued to rush up. To solve the ambush, we must escape. When Yan Liang kept going up, the more he went up, the more powerful the river was.Because it''s surrounded by flowing water.


    Yan Liang took the soldiers to avoid, constantly changing direction, and finally avoided the scouring River, found a place where there was no river water, and went up.


    Yan Liang looked back as he went up.


    Under the scouring of the river, many of his soldiers were in rags, like drowned chickens. The war horses in the army were the most affected. Many of them were washed away, leaving only a few.


    Yan Liang took people up the mountain. When he got out of the depression and came to the official road, he was relieved that although the ground was muddy, there was no more water flowing back.


    At least he escaped.


    If he is really inundated by the flood, his army will be completely destroyed.


    "Let''s go to Huayin county."


    Yan Liang gave the order.


    The soldiers under his command have become less effective and are not easy to fight. If we don''t rush to the county seat of Huayin county at this time, it will be quite troublesome.


    If it''s ambushed, it''s more difficult.


    So Yan Liang didn''t count the soldiers, didn''t take care of the others, just wanted to go to the county first.


    But when Yan Liang led his troops on the way, the soldiers of the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army had gathered quickly. When Yan Liang''s position was exposed, the soldiers gathered outside and blocked Yan Liang''s retreat.


    As soon as Yan Liang''s army approached, Huang Zhong ordered his soldiers to shoot with bows and arrows.


    "Whew! Whew


    Under the dense bow and arrow, he shot through the rain and soon arrived in Yan Liang''s army.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A feather arrow, shot into the body of Yan Liang''s soldiers, splashed a pengpeng blood. Many soldiers were shot and killed on the spot. The wounded soldiers fell to the ground and moaned.


    "Break through and get out!"


    Yan Liang gave a loud order. Now it''s bright, and he can see the road clearly. Yan Liang broke through with countless bows and arrows, but he couldn''t go out.


    Yan Liang immediately adjusted his strategy.


    He turned and went to the northeast of the depression, because there were trees in the northeast. He led his soldiers into the woods to hide.


    In the forest, bows and arrows are not easy to use.


    Because in the dense forest, many bows and arrows will hit the trees, so it is difficult to hit the soldiers.


    Yan Liang''s plan is to guard with the help of woods.


    When Yan Liang chooses to defend, he mobilizes the pro guards around him and orders them to make a detour from the rear to go out and ask Sui Gu for help. Now, we can only ask Sui Gu for help.


    As long as we delay the arrival of Sui Gu''s army, we can stabilize the situation and get rid of the present predicament.


    Everything depends on Sui Gu.

 Chapter 355

    At daybreak, more and more soldiers gathered near Yan Liang''s troops.


    All the troops led by Gan Ning and Huang Zhong arrived.


    The flying bear army and the fierce tiger army surrounded Yan Liang.


    Even Zhang Xiu has come.


    Even though it is still raining heavily, Zhang Xiu is full of energy. He came to the front line, looked at Huang Zhong and Gan Ning and asked, "did some of them escape?"


    Huang Zhong replied, "my Lord, the spies report that some of the soldiers withdrew first and went to the county seat of Huayin county. According to what we found out, Yan Liang is still in the woods. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if someone escapes, we don''t have to rush to attack, just trap Yan Liang to death. Yan Liang''s army is surrounded by regiments. It''s hard to fly. "


    Huang Zhong nodded his approval.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the sky, although it was still raining, the dark clouds had dispersed, and the heavy rain should not last long.


    Zhang Xiu eyes turn, suddenly thought of a thing, ordered: "Gan Ning!"


    "Yes


    Gan Ning answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you immediately transfer 4000 fierce tiger troops to Chen Dao''s ambush position to assist Chen Dao."


    "Now it''s raining cats and dogs, and the road is muddy. Chen Dao''s cavalry are not easy to fight, so they have to give up their horses to help Yan Liang''s Sui Gu. With your 4000 strong tiger troops and Chen Dao''s excellent troops of Langya camp, it''s enough to block Sui Gu''s army. "


    "It''s best to win, even if it''s impossible to win, it''s enough to hold down Sui Gu''s army."


    Zhang Xiu made arrangements immediately.


    The road was not muddy, and the cavalry charged back and forth with great lethality.


    Chen Dao and Langya camp constantly cover up and kill each other, which has a great opportunity to solve Sui Gu''s army.


    Now, it''s different.


    At present, the road is muddy, and the cavalry can not play a combat effectiveness. Zhang Xiu must send a fierce tiger army to support her. Otherwise, Chen Dao''s soldiers alone would not be able to destroy Sui Gu''s army.


    Ganning heard Zhang Xiu''s command, but also a reaction, immediately ordered to go on.


    After Zhang Xiu arranges everything, he mobilizes the soldiers again, gradually reduces the encirclement, and blocks Yan Liang in the woods. As soon as Yan Liang''s army came out, it would cover up Yan Liang''s army.


    In fact, Yan Liang did not dare to come out.


    After the flood, Yan Liang''s army suffered heavy losses, and many soldiers lost their weapons. Yan Liang''s more than 18000 soldiers, but now only 14000, many of them have fled.


    In addition, the combat effectiveness is also weakened. At this time, many soldiers fight with their weapons empty handed, which is a way to kill themselves.


    Yan Liang can only shrink to seek perfection.


    Yan Liang''s soldiers, surrounded by a circle of long spearmen, a very small number of soldiers set up shields to resist. Inside, there are many soldiers with swords.


    A long gun, flashing cold light.


    However, all the soldiers in the army were worried.


    Standing in the military array, Yan Liang saw the surrounded army. He knew that his soldiers were weak, and now he was fighting against Zhang Xiu''s army, which was to seek death.


    The only way is to stick to it.


    Especially in the woods, even if Zhang Xiu wants to attack, the bow and arrow and soldiers may not be good at attacking. In addition, the muddy ground irrigated by heavy rain will weaken the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    One encircles but does not attack, one defends but does not go out.


    There was a temporary confrontation between the two sides.


    After a short time, the sky cleared up, the clouds dissipated and the sun came out again. The golden sun came down and shone on the ground. The water reflected and all around was golden.


    Near noon, Zhang Xiu did not let the soldiers eat dry food, but specially transferred to the kitchen to cook.


    One by one, the cooks quickly set up the stove and prepared the lunch. As the broth came out, the smell of the soup began to spread. Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were not hungry after all.


    But Yan Liang''s soldiers were rumbling in their stomachs.


    All the soldiers were hungry.


    Many soldiers rummaged around and the dry food had been washed away. Even if there is dry food, but last night was soaked in rain, and bumpy extrusion, dry food has rotten, only residue.


    There is very little to eat.


    In particular, although the soldiers were wearing hats and coir raincoats last night, in the end, they all fell off and were wet by the rain. They were all wet and their clothes were not dry.


    Some soldiers shivered when a cool wind came.


    It''s cold!


    Cold and hungry, the soldier''s face looked desperate.


    Yan Liang saw all this in his eyes and secretly scolded Zhang Xiu for being cunning. He knew that his soldiers were hungry. But it happened that Zhang Xiu also deliberately buried pot cooking, in order to combat the morale of his soldiers.


    Yan Liang thinks something must be done.


    If not, it will be unbearable.


    After thinking about it, Yan Liang made up his mind. He took a knife, stepped on the muddy road, strode out of the military array, stood outside the long gun array, and said in a loud voice: "Yan Liang is here, where is Zhang Xiu?"Zhang Xiu looked at Yan Liang, also did not hesitate, came forward and said: "Yan Liang, are you ready to surrender?"


    "Surrender is impossible."


    Yan Liang''s eyes were sharp, and there was a voice on the ground: "my Yan Liang''s head can be cut off and blood can flow, and I will never surrender. Zhang Xiu, if you are a real man, bet with Yan Liang. "


    Zhang Xiu asked: "how to bet?"


    Yan Liang replied: "you and I have a fight. If you win, Yan Liang will surrender without saying a word and will no longer resist. If you, Zhang Xiu, lose, order the soldiers to get out of the way and let me go. Do you dare to compete with me? "


    At the moment, Yan Liang''s heart is looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s promise.


    If Zhang Xiu agrees to fight, then he has a chance to fight.


    Yan Liang is very confident in his martial arts.


    He is sure to win.


    Of course, Yan Liang also considered the possibility of failure. What Yan Liang thought in his heart was that even if he was defeated, it would be OK for him to withdraw and return to the army.


    At that time, he will default.


    Zhang Xiu is so angry that she wants to kill her. He leads the army to fight. In today''s situation, even if Zhang Xiu''s army has the advantage, Zhang Xiu''s advantage is limited. After all, under the influence of heavy rain and muddy roads, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers can not fully play their combat effectiveness.


    This is Yan Liang''s confidence.


    It''s also Yan Liang''s plan.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Yan Liang''s words, she thought about it in her heart, and then considered the situation that Yan Liang might go back after he was defeated.


    On the battlefield, everything is necessary.


    Go back. That''s normal.


    But for Zhang Xiu, this is also an opportunity. Once he won Yan Liang and did not let him return to the army, he could solve Yan Liang''s army without a single soldier.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s consideration.


    As for losing to Yan Liang, Zhang Xiu has never thought about it.


    His strength has been growing, especially the enhancement of strength, making his martial arts also improved. Although it is very important to practice martial arts, the innate foundation is also very important.


    No matter how skillful you are and how powerful you are, you will be able to reduce your skills by 10%.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s cognition.


    Gan Ning''s eyes were rolling. After thinking about it, he suggested: "Lord, you must not be fooled. Yan Liang, that person, was a broken pot and broke it. He gave up completely. "


    "When Yan Liang arrived at this stage, he was on the verge of extinction."


    "After our soldiers have enough to eat and drink, their strength is still there, but their soldiers are still hungry."


    "We are strong, but they are weak."


    "If you fight with Yan Liang at this time, you will fall into Yan Liang''s calculation. Once Yan Liang wins, he can ask the Lord to give way. If the Lord does not perform, his prestige will be affected. "


    Gan Ning said: "if the Lord wins, Yan Liang can also play a rogue."


    Huang Zhong said, "I''m seconded to your humble position!"


    But Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "what you are thinking about is the worst. But I don''t know, it may be the best situation. I won Yan Liang and won the first battle. In this war, I will fight. "


    In a word, to be sure.


    Zhang Xiu decided to fight, immediately carrying the overlord gun, slowly out of the army.

 Chapter 356

    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning look at each other with helpless expression.


    They have been following Zhang Xiu for some time, and they all know Zhang Xiu''s temperament. Once Zhang Xiu decides something, it is impossible to change it. Unless Zhang Xiu is wrong, Zhang Xiu will not change it.


    There was a touch of worry in Ganning''s eyes. He solemnly said: "brother Hansheng, Yan Liang is a famous general in Hebei Province and a great general in Yuan Shao''s army. It''s said that Yan Liang and Wen Chou are brave enough to fight each other. If something goes wrong, it''s not good. "


    Huang Zhong shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "xingba, in fact, I don''t worry about my lord when I fight on horseback or on the ground under normal circumstances."


    "When I first followed my Lord, he was inferior to me in strength."


    "Now, better than me."


    "My Lord is in his early twenties, and his power is still growing. He is a monster."


    "My martial arts are not as good as my Lord."


    "It''s just a fight right now, not a normal one," Huang said. The ground is extremely muddy. Even if you have advanced martial arts skills, if you step in the mud and slip, you may have problems. "


    "I''m worried about that."


    "But my lord won''t listen to you and me and will go to war."


    Huang Zhong said: "I hope the Lord can defeat Yan Liang smoothly without any trouble."


    Gan Ning was surprised to hear Huang Zhong''s words.


    He knows the strength of Huang Zhong.


    Gan Ning was completely unstoppable in front of Huang Zhong. He did not expect that Zhang Xiu had been able to defeat Huang Zhong. Ganning was the first to attack Yuyang County, and Zhang Xiu hand in hand.


    Since then, there has been no fight with Zhang Xiu. Even if Gan Ning knew that Zhang Xiu had a strong martial arts, he didn''t expect to be so powerful.


    Gan Ning was glad to think that Zhang Xiu was stronger than Huang Zhong. He had some worries, but now he put down his mind and said with a smile: "although this situation is bad for the Lord, it is also bad for Yan Liang. The Lord will surely win this battle. "


    "I hope so," said Huang


    Zhang Xiu carrying a overlord gun, step by step out of the army. The overlord gun in his hand pointed to the front and said in a loud voice: "Yan Liang, this will come out. Your challenge should have been met. "


    Yan Liang''s heart fluttered twice.


    He was excited.


    Although Yan Liang had expectations in his heart, he was also worried that Zhang Xiu would not shrink. Once Zhang Xiu refused, it was tantamount to breaking Yan Liang''s back road, so that he could only support Sui Gu in the forest.


    Now, Zhang Xiu agrees.


    This is an opportunity.


    Yan Liang, holding a long knife, moved forward slowly. Although stepping on the ground, the road is muddy and even easy to slip, for Yan Liang, all this is not a problem.


    He is sure to win.


    He wants to seize this opportunity.


    Yan Liang''s heart, is not limited to win, want more. If he just wins, Zhang Xiu may escape. Once Zhang Xiu fled back to the army, then Zhang Xiu may also repent.


    The best way is to capture Zhang Xiu alive. With Zhang Xiu as a hostage, Yan Liang can coerce the army under Zhang Xiu''s command and let the other side vacate a road.


    It''s more useful than a bet.


    Yan Liang step by step out, not long, go to ten steps outside Zhang Xiu. Yan Liang a knife up, face cold Su, waving his hand: "Zhang Xiu, to fight!"


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "with you?"


    "I''m thinking about you, Yan Liang. What I''m thinking is, let me sprint with a Bawang gun. In case of rushing in the middle of the road, stepping on the slippery foot, directly falling to the ground, you can pick up the cheap. "


    "Right?"


    "This man, although he is a military general, his mind is not pure."


    Zhang Xiu said: "since Zhang Xiu dares to fight, she has the heart to fight with you. If you think carefully, you''d better put it away. I''ll look down on you as a warrior, regardless of my official position. "


    Brush!


    Yan Liang''s face turned red.


    Just now, he did have such a mind, expecting Zhang Xiu to fall to the ground directly.


    He can win without fighting.


    Zhang Xiu pierced the heart of the idea, Yan Liang face hot. As a famous general in Hebei Province, Yan Liang has his own pride. When Zhang Xiu said that he was angry, he no longer hesitated and rushed out first.


    "Kill


    Yan Liang gave a big drink.


    At this moment, Yan Liang made full use of his strength. His hand is fast. Stepping on the mud on the ground, he quickly comes to Zhang Xiu. He clenches the long knife with both hands and cuts it off.


    "Whew!"


    The blade broke through the air, and there was a sharp whistling sound, which was frightening.


    Yan Liang''s martial arts skills have already entered the arena. With one cut, the essence and spirit are contained in it, and the murderous spirit is threatening. With one cut, Zhang Xiu can''t escape.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is indifferent, without the slightest panic. He and Yan Liang a war, originally did not plan to avoid, in the hand overlord gun lifts, mercilessly swings upward.


    "Dang!"Overlord gun and blade impact, in an instant, harsh sound deafening.


    At the impact, there were more sparks.


    The two weapons all vibrated at this time, and each of them was able to bear the strength of anti shock. Zhang Xiu and Yan Liang are standing in the mud, strength shock, body shape a little meal, then recovered, each hand.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t try her best to test Yan Liang''s strength.


    In the trial, Zhang Xiu found that Yan Liang''s strength was constantly increasing in the first ten moves, but after ten moves, her strength did not improve. In this case, Zhang Xiu has a deep understanding of Yan Liang''s degree.


    Yan Liang''s martial arts are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals. Judging by Zhang Xiu, Yan Liang can''t even compare with Huang Zhong, but it''s impossible for Zhang Xiu to capture Yan Liang alive.


    After all, Yan Liang is not an ordinary person.


    Zhang Xiu in the hand overlord gun stabs unceasingly, the move is still steady.


    Yan Liang''s attack was fierce.


    In everyone''s eyes, Zhang Xiu always belongs to the defensive side, Yan Liang belongs to the offensive side, Yan Liang is dominant, but Zhang Xiu knows his own situation.


    It''s easy for him to get the upper hand, but to capture Yan Liang alive, Zhang Xiu needs careful design.


    Otherwise, opportunities will be wasted.


    So Zhang Xiu has been defending, looking for a shot.


    "Kill


    Yan Liang drinks low again, he has already given up. And Zhang Xiu repeatedly attack, arm concussion, numb unceasingly. Yan Liang himself is also affected. He thinks that Zhang Xiu''s strength is only a little weaker than him.


    The long sword is like pitching. It can be cut down quickly.


    Zhang Xiu holds the gun.


    He held the gun in both hands, and the big gun went up to block the shot.


    It seemed that Zhang Xiu''s strength was reduced and he began to falter.


    "Lord!"


    Before Zhang Xiujun''s battle, Gan Ning looked in his eyes and cried out.


    At this moment, Gan Ning looked anxious.


    Gan Ning was about to rush out with a knife in his hand, but at this time, Huang Zhong held out his hand like lightning, grabbed Gan Ning''s arm, and said in a low voice, "Xing Ba, don''t worry about the safety of the Lord. Everything is under the master''s control. "


    "Ah


    Gan Ning exclaimed.


    When he heard Huang Zhong''s words, he looked at them carefully and found that although Zhang Xiu''s feet faltered and retreated, his steps were not chaotic at all, and his expression was extremely indifferent.


    Zhang Xiu did it on purpose.


    It''s a trick to lure the enemy!

 Chapter 357

    Yan Liang a see Zhang Xiu stagger retreat, look suddenly become excited, originally calm heart, at this moment, is also abrupt acceleration beat up.


    This is the moment!


    He wants to seize this fleeting opportunity to win Zhang Xiu.


    It''s his only chance.


    Miss, no!


    Yan Liang''s strength is strong and his steps are continuous. Every time he stepped on the ground, he had a heavy strength and stood firmly on the muddy ground. In a flash, he rushed to Zhang Xiu''s body, the sword rose, swung it and cut it off.


    A knife, do your best.


    Everything is poured into this knife.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Yan Liang was ready to wield a knife. She didn''t defend even in front of her body. The corners of her mouth rose and she started to smile.


    Here''s the chance!


    He''s waiting for now.


    Zhang Xiu body shape meal, stop in situ do not retreat. Zhang Xiu legs, such as the eight character fork, Overlord gun rotation, strong to meet.


    In a flash, the sword and the overlord gun collided.


    "Dang!"


    There was a piercing crash.


    The blade and the overlord gun collided together. There were sparks splashing all over the place where they collided, and the smell of scorch filled the air.


    "Hum!"


    After the violent impact, the weapon was impacted by the force, and Zhang Xiu and Yan Liang''s weapons kept shaking.


    Yan Liang felt the impact and his face changed greatly.


    The strength of Zhang Xiu''s attack is at least 40% stronger than before. Majestic power, such as the surging river, surging out. Under the impact of this powerful force, Yan Liang held the handle of the knife, tearing the tiger''s mouth and spilling blood.


    Yan Liang''s arms, under the impact of great force, the bones of his arms seemed to split.


    Strong!


    It''s so strong!


    Kick! Kick!


    Under the impact of strength, Yan Liang couldn''t hold his body and kept retreating.


    Zhang Xiu was not affected at all. After gaining power, she carried on with her overlord gun. Once in front of Yan Liang, Zhang Xiu swings the overlord gun in her hand and smashes it down again.


    Yan Liang has not yet stabilized his figure, and he can''t avoid it. He can only lift his knife to block it.


    Dang!!


    The fallen overlord gun hit Yan Liang''s knife again.


    "Poof!"


    Yan Liang took the blow, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    The blood spat out and Yan Liang''s breath withered.


    Zhang Xiu saw that although Yan Liang vomited blood, she still held the sword tightly and swung the overlord gun again.


    One shot won''t do. Two.


    Overlord gun with rapid speed, in the air across an arc, in an instant again hit. When the overlord''s gun collided with his sword, Yan Liang snorted, and the sword was knocked out directly.


    Yan Liang stumbled and fell to the ground.


    Yan Liang stepped forward to embroider. As long as Zhang Xiu is willing, the overlord gun will move forward three inches to kill Yan Liang here.


    "Good!"


    In the army, Gan Ning cried out.


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    "General Zhang Wansheng!"


    There are soldiers in the army shouting, one by one soldiers see Zhang Xiu win, look very happy. They just saw Zhang Xiu fall into the bottom and were beaten by Yan Liang everywhere. They were very nervous.


    I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will fail.


    Once Zhang Xiu is defeated by Yan Liang, they will also fall into a disadvantageous situation.


    In an instant, the situation changed.


    Zhang Xiu''s move is just fierce. Like the wind sweeping the leaves, she defeated Yan Liang in an instant and captured him alive.


    This has inspired countless soldiers.


    Their hearts were filled with joy.


    They are even more proud of Zhang Xiu and of being her soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers yelled, but Yan Liang''s more than 10000 soldiers were silly. Just now, they saw that Yan Liang was pressing Zhang Xiu to fight. They were happy that Yan Liang could win and they had hope of escape.


    They all admire Yan Liang.


    Yan Liang is a great master in the army, invincible.


    Suddenly, Yan Liang was defeated.


    The God of war in the eyes of the soldiers was defeated cleanly and without suspense.


    It''s depressing.


    The morale of Yan Liang''s soldiers collapsed. Originally, these soldiers were washed away by heavy rain last night and fled for another night. They were already drowned and demoralized.


    When Yan Liang lost again, everyone was afraid when they looked at Zhang Xiu.


    The look on Yan Liang''s face, though flushed, was full of disbelief. His arm, trembling slightly, and there was blood flowing from the mouth of the tiger, murmured: "how can it be? It''s not like that. How can your power be so powerful. "


    At this point, he did not understand.


    Why did Zhang Xiu cheat him like this?


    Zhang Xiu explained: "because of my strength, this is what it is. You Yan Liang in front of me, but a local chicken and a local dog. Hebei''s famous general is no better than me. "Yan Liangdao: "since this is the case, why don''t you show all your strength and hide your strength when you and I fight each other?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "if I didn''t take the initiative to show weakness, you will always be on guard, ready to retreat, not desperate to do it."


    "If I start, I will show my strength to crush you. I''m afraid you, Yan Liang, have already withdrawn from the army. "


    "The battle between the two armies on the battlefield is not only a battle of strength, but also a battle of wisdom and strategy. It''s the same with generals. It''s not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of wisdom. "


    "If I want to capture you alive, I must show weakness."


    "Only when you go all out and show your fatal flaw, can I beat you and capture you alive. Otherwise, you will withdraw from the army and fail to fulfill your promise. What can I do with you? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t believe your so-called gambling appointment. I prefer to believe in my own strength. "


    "Treachery!"


    Yan Liang said angrily, "Zhang Xiu, you are too treacherous."


    Zhang Xiu light said: "you take the initiative to put forward gambling, do not have a fluke.". What do you think? Do you want me to tear it down? "


    Yan Liang snorted and stopped talking.


    With a big wave of Zhang Xiu''s hand, the rear soldiers rushed up and quickly detained Yan Liang. Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Yan Liang''s army.


    "I surrender!"


    Among the soldiers, some dropped their weapons. With the first soldier to take the lead, the rest threw away their weapons and surrendered.


    There is no need for Zhang Xiu to surrender, but Yan Liang''s soldiers. Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She immediately ordered Huang Zhong and Gan Ning to arrange the surrender soldiers.


    An hour and a half passed after all this was properly handled.


    It''s almost midnight.


    Huang Zhong came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, the surrender has been completed. All the surrendering troops have been detained for the time being. Are we going to rest the whole army or go to the county seat of Huayin county? "


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "it''s not easy for soldiers in the army to stay up all night and get wet all the time. I''ll go on, rest for an hour, and then go to Huayin county. "


    "Here it is


    When Huang Zhong got the order, he arranged it.


    The army found a space to rest, and Yan Liang and Xu you were arranged together.


    When Xu you saw Yan Liang, he sighed: "general Yan Liang, I didn''t expect that you were defeated. Alas, we are ordered by the Lord to fight Zhang Xiu. We are defeated too fast. "


    Yan Liang snorted and said angrily, "Xu you, if you hadn''t gone your own way and sneaked into Chang''an, you wouldn''t have done so. Knowing that Chang''an is a tiger''s den, you have to sneak in. You are to blame for all this


    When Xu you heard this, he was furious.


    He always felt good about himself. When he heard Yan Liang''s accusation, he became angry and yelled, "Yan Liang, what are you talking about. I sneaked into Chang''an for the sake of the overall situation. You lead a large army, but you lose so simply. You have lost the face of your Lord. "


    Yan Liang said angrily, "Xu you, it''s all your fault."


    Both of them were angry and accused each other. After they scolded each other, they finally regained their peace and were silent. Both Xu you and Yan Liang were prisoners.


    They are in a worrying situation.

 Chapter 358

    Huayin county official road.


    A group of soldiers are on their way.


    The leader''s name was Zuo Bing, a school captain in Yan Liang''s army. At Yan Liang''s command, he took the soldiers to make a detour to break through the encirclement, and then quickly went to Huayin county.


    At the beginning, it was raining and the road was muddy, which made it inconvenient to drive. After daybreak, the clouds dissipate, at least it doesn''t rain any more, it''s better to go on the road.


    Zuo Bing led a group of soldiers, rushing all the way, regardless of his own situation. After all, Yan Liang''s situation is in crisis and he must return as soon as possible. When he got close to the city and could see the city of Huayin county from a distance, Zuo Bing and others all had happy smiles on their faces.


    Here we are!


    It''s finally here!


    Now, Zuo Bing is out of breath.


    Fortunately, he always practices with Yan Liang and has good health. Otherwise, such a long journey, especially in the rain, would have been unbearable to most people.


    Zuobing took people to the lower part of the city tower, looked up to the upper part of the city, and roared, "I''m Zuobing, the captain of general Yan. Open the city gate quickly. I want to see general Sui Gu."


    As it happens, Sui Gu is patrolling the city.


    Sui Gu knew Zuo Bing.


    Seeing the left soldier''s embarrassed appearance, Sui Gu''s heart was filled with a sense of foreboding. He had no doubt in his heart. He immediately ordered to open the gate and let Zuo Bing and his party enter.


    After Zuo Bing entered the city, he quickly ascended the tower. He came to Sui Gu''s front, bent, hands on his knees, gasping.


    Tired!


    I''m so tired!


    The beaded sweat seeped out from the left soldier''s forehead.


    After a long time, Zuo Bing recovered slightly, wiped the sweat on his forehead and reported: "general Sui, the place where my general was stationed was flooded by Zhang Xiu. The general has pulled out and stuck in the woods. Zhang Xiu''s army is about to launch an attack. The general asks general Sui to send troops to help and attack Zhang Xiu with my general. "


    Brush!


    Sui Gu''s face changed greatly.


    Yan Liang was flooded. Isn''t that a heavy loss?


    Sui Gu took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, and said, "how many troops are there around general Yan?"


    Zuo Bing said: "there are about 15000 people left. Our loss is not big. After all, we should evacuate in time. In particular, the place where the general was stationed was not the center of the depression, but was washed by the current and not really flooded. It''s just that Zhang Xiu has a large number of troops, so the general didn''t break through hard and chose to defend. "


    The left soldier kept a little secret about the situation on the battlefield.


    He didn''t say that the losses were huge, or that the cavalry was almost nonexistent.


    It''s just a bit of a dilemma.


    Sui Gu is in deep thought, because of the current situation, he is a little hesitant.


    Stay in Huayin County, he can guard.


    Even if Zhang Xiu comes to attack, Sui Gu is not afraid. He can rely on the city to defend.


    The problem is that Yan Liang belongs to Yuan Shao.


    Without Yan Liang''s help, it would be difficult for Sui Gu to defend Huayin county. Moreover, if he did not rescue Yan Liang, he might be resented by Yuan Shao. This is a situation Sui Gu does not want to see.


    We can only send troops!


    Sui Gu made a decision after weighing in his mind and said, "well, I will immediately mobilize 8000 soldiers to help general Yan Liang."


    "Not enough!"


    Zuo Bing shook his head and answered.


    Sui Gu''s face sank, and he said: "Zuo Bing, I''m going to rescue general Yan. I''ve done my duty. I have 15000 men under my command, and more than half of them are sent out of the city. What else do you want? "


    At this time, Sui Gu was a little annoyed.


    Zuo Bing is ignorant of current affairs.


    Sui Gu has a look of anger in his eyes. He is already angry.


    But Zuo Bing was not afraid. He held his head up and threw his head to the ground. He said in a voice: "general Sui, I am also thinking about you and the overall situation. Zhang Xiu surrounded general Yan, and his troops were at least 25000, or even more. "


    "If general Sui only dispatched 8000 soldiers, even if he could cooperate with my general and attack Zhang Xiu, he could not defeat Zhang Xiu, or even be defeated by Zhang Xiu."


    "Knowing that Zhang Xiu has surrounded our general, knowing that we have a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu, why don''t we mobilize all our forces to fight?"


    Zuo Bing said: "this huge Huayin county has a solid city. It only needs more than a thousand soldiers to guard it. My advice is to ask the general to mobilize all the troops to attack. If you want to fight, you should fight thoroughly and defeat Zhang Xiu in one go. "


    Sui Gu was silent after listening.


    There is a certain truth in Zuo Bing''s words, but Sui Gu''s heart is not willing to do so.


    It''s not appropriate to exhaust all your strength.


    Seeing this, Zuo Bing said again, "my general once said that general Sui is a man who knows how to analyze the situation. General Sui, as long as you go all out and defeat Zhang Xiu with my general, that''s a great achievement. "


    Sui Gu''s eyebrows and eyes are floating. He is weighing the pros and cons in his heart.


    Zuo Bing continued: "once the victory is won, the war report will be sent back to Jizhou and handed over to Yuan Jizhou. Yuan Jizhou will be greatly praised when he sees the contribution of general Sui. Why indecision at the moment? "Sui Gu''s heart became alive.


    He was moved by Zuo Bing''s words just now, because his heart also tended to submit to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao has a good impression in front of him.


    Sui Gu clenched his teeth and said, "OK, it''s up to you."


    Zuo Bing was relieved and said happily, "general Sui is wise!"


    Sui Gu immediately ordered the soldiers to gather at the gate of the city. After the army had assembled, Sui Gu left his commander Fu Shan to lead a thousand soldiers to the town of shouchengchi, and then left Huayin county with the army.


    The army left and the news soon spread.


    Zhang Fang of the royal guards gets the news and orders all the soldiers of the royal guards to gather and prepare for the battle. Then, he went to Yang''s house to visit alone.


    When the porter saw Zhang Fang, he didn''t go to pass the news. He led Zhang Fang to the hall.


    In the hall, Yang xiuduan sat down.


    When Zhang Fang saw Yang Xiu, he bowed his hand and said, "young master Yang, I just got the news that Sui Gu left the county with the army. In Huayin County, only 1000 soldiers were left to guard the west gate. As long as there are 2500 soldiers of the Yang family, it will be as easy as a palm to capture Ximen. "


    Yang Xiu said with a light smile: "I already know the news of Sui Gu''s sending troops."


    Zhang Fang: "when will we send troops?"


    Yang Xiu was not impatient and said, "I''ve arranged for someone to invite Fu Shan, the captain who stayed at Ximen. He is a school captain left behind. As long as he persuades Fu Shan, it''s not enough to worry about the 1000 soldiers left behind. "


    Zhang Fang frowned and said, "I know Fu Shan, too. When Duan Xun was in Hongnong County, he was the captain of Huayin county


    "Duan Xu left, Sui Gu occupied the county, Fu Shan was the first to surrender to Sui Gu."


    "As the first person to surrender to Sui Gu, Fu Shan was highly valued by Sui Gu. In particular, Fu Shan betrayed Duan Xu and gave up his retreat. Now he can only follow Sui Gu closely. "


    "It''s not easy to persuade such a person to surrender."


    Zhang Fang said solemnly: "otherwise, if he surrender again, he will become a traitor. Who dares to use him?"


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "for Fu Shan, life is always the most important thing. It doesn''t matter whether it''s a traitor or not. Zhang Fang, you are a Ranger. You are light on life, heavy on promise, and attach great importance to faithfulness and reputation. From your point of view, Fu Shan may not be easily submissive, but in fact, Fu Shan is not what you think


    Zhang Fang thought for a moment and said, "young master Yang''s plan is to recruit and surrender him."


    "Yes


    Yang Xiu nodded and said, "if Fu Shan is willing to cooperate, it''s OK to leave him alive. If Fu Shan doesn''t want to cooperate, I''ll kill him by thunder and go to Ximen to take over the city defense


    Zhang Fang''s heart was awe inspiring.


    Suddenly, he was afraid of Yang Xiu. Even if Yang Xiu was a scholar, he was still smiling and killing people. His demeanor and calmness made people awe him.


    He is worthy of being a son of a noble family.

 Chapter 359

    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a porter came into the hall and reported: "young master, there is a man from outside the mansion. He said he was looking for Zhang Fang."


    "Please


    Yang xiuphen said.


    Zhang Fang wondered, who would look for him at this time?


    Soon, a Ranger entered.


    The Ranger''s face was a little hasty. He quickly came to Zhang Fang and said in a low voice, "chief, this is the letter sent by Lord Wang."


    Zhang Fang took the letter, did not avoid Yang Xiu, immediately opened to read.


    When Zhang Fang finished reading the news, he gave the letter to the Ranger and said, "go back and tell them to be happy."


    "Here it is


    Ranger son took the letter, swept his eyes, his face showed ecstasy, and then left like flying.


    Yang Xiu did not ask.


    Zhang Fang took the initiative and said, "young master Yang, I just received a letter sent by general Zhang. Yan Liang was captured alive and all the troops surrendered. Today, only Sui Gu''s army is left. In order to defeat Sui Gu, general Zhang arranged an army to ambush in the city of Huayin county. Soon after Sui Gu sent troops, he would be ambushed. "


    Yang Xiumei heads up.


    It''s amazing.


    Zhang Xiu defeated Yan Liang. You know, Yan Liang has nearly 20000 troops.


    According to the information the Yang family got, Yan Liang''s army, clearly still in the rear of Huayin County, did not leave the camp at all. Zhang Xiu''s army, however, defeated Yan Liang''s army before reaching Huayin county.


    All this, how the war happened.


    Yang Xiu was very surprised.


    Yang Xiu''s mind turns and deduces quickly.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to defeat Yan Liang, the only possibility is that Yan Liang deliberately leaves some soldiers in the rear camp to confuse people''s sight. Then he takes the army to the front line, but he confronts Zhang Xiu, and finally loses.


    Yang Wuxiu learned the details.


    He can only make simple inferences.


    After thinking about it, Yang Xiu quickly returned to reality and said with a smile, "since Yan Liang is defeated, Sui Gu''s defeat is just around the corner. Before that, we will take the county seat of Huayin county. "


    Zhang Fang said, "what you said is true."


    It wasn''t long. The porter came to report and the captain Fu Shan came.


    Yang Xiu didn''t let Zhang Fang avoid him. He told the porter to bring Fu Shan to the hall.


    Fu Shannian is nearly 40 years old, short and slightly obese. His small eyes, almost narrowed into a slit, it is difficult to see the look changes in his eyes.


    Fu Shan entered the hall with a slightly respectful look. After all, this is the Yang family. It''s the Yang family of the four generations. Fu Shan is just a Wufu. In front of the Yang family, his identity is too humble.


    Fu Shan arched his hand and said, "young master Yang Xiu summoned me. I don''t know what happened."


    Yang xiudao said, "I''d like to ask Fu Xiaowei to help me."


    Fu Shan said, "young master Yang Xiu, as long as I can do what Fu Shan can do, I will never frown."


    Yang Xiu said: "I hope Fu Xiaowei can abandon the dark and turn to the light. Instead of helping Sui Gu guard Ximen, he will lead his soldiers to surrender to Zhennan General Zhang Xiu and serve for Zhennan general."


    Brush!


    Fu Shan''s face changed slightly.


    He never thought that Yang Xiu was Zhang Xiu''s man.


    At this moment, Fu Shan''s hand fell on the hilt of his sword. When he looked at Yang Xiu, he had an alert look on his face and said in a deep voice, "young master Yang, the Yang family is an official family. In Huayin County, they have never been involved in politics. Is the Yang family not afraid to exterminate the clan? "


    Yang Xiu was not impatient and said: "to destroy the family, is Fu Xiaowei going to destroy my Yang family? In other words, does Fu Xiaowei think he has this ability? "


    Fu Shan said: "young master Yang, I am Fu Shan, a member of general Sui Gu. General Sui treats me well. It''s impossible for me to betray general Sui Gu. "


    Yang Xiu has a touch of sarcasm on the corner of his mouth and says, "but you betrayed Duan Xu."


    Fu Shan is dumb at the moment.


    Betrayal is his stain.


    Yang Xiu continued: "at the beginning, Duan simmer was good for you. No matter how Duan simmered for you, you finally betrayed. This person, with the first time, there will be a second time. There is a second time, there is a third time. "


    "As long as you betray Duan Xun, you can''t be a loyal person."


    "Of course, I can help you."


    "As long as you like, I will make you a loyal person."


    Yang Xiu said, "it''s just the price of loyalty. It''s your life. Will you trade your life for a reputation of loyalty? "


    Fu Shan''s face changed slightly, and said, "young master Yang is so threatening. Don''t you know that when Wu Fu is angry, he will kill people in ten steps?"


    Yang xiudao: "you can have a try."


    Fu Shan looks around, and his eyes finally fall on Zhang Fang. Zhang Fang has been sitting in the hall, motionless, and does not show his momentum. He may be the one who protects Yang Xiu.Or there are people of the Yang family inside and outside the house.


    Fu Shan is thinking about how to deal with the current situation.


    Yang xiudao: "don''t look at it. To tell you the truth, I ambushed swordsmen and archers inside and outside the house. If you do, you''ll be killed immediately. Of course, you can have a try. "


    Fu Shan''s face changes again and again.


    What to do?


    Let him betray Sui Gu, Fu Shan also some hesitation, but in front of his own life, Fu Shan''s bottom line can''t stick.


    He couldn''t have died.


    Yang xiudao: "general Fu Shan, have you made a decision? Sui Gu has no choice but to stay in front of you


    Fu Shan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and finally made a difficult decision, saying: "I am willing to surrender!"


    "Good!"


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "those who know the current affairs are Junjie. Fu Xiaowei, it''s not a long-term plan for you to follow Duan Xun; it''s not a good choice to follow Sui Gu. Zhennan General Zhang Xiu is invincible. It''s a long-term plan for you to follow such people. "


    Fu Shan sighs in his heart.


    He betrayed Duan Xu and Sui Gu. Will Zhang Xiu value him?


    But it doesn''t matter.


    It''s important to protect your life.


    Fu Shan said, "young master Yang, I promise to cooperate. What are you going to do next? "


    Yang Xiu said: "don''t worry, I have already considered the following things. You go to Simon with me. The master''s people will take over the city defense. "


    With that, Yang Xiu stood up and went out.


    Zhang Fang immediately follows, and the guard is beside Yang Xiu. He is worried that Fu Shan will be in trouble suddenly, and Yang Xiu will be in danger.


    Fu Shan also keeps up.


    In fact, in Fu Shan''s heart, he really didn''t want to win Yang Xiu''s idea. He''s just a school captain with ordinary background. Let him take Yang Xiu and annoy the Yang family. He can''t bear the responsibility.


    The three of them walked out of the hall. When they got out of the Yang family, they only heard Yang Xiu''s order. One by one, the private soldiers of the Yang family came out of the house and quickly gathered together, with a total of 2500 people.


    These two thousand and five hundred people, all dressed in armor and armed with swordsmen.


    Fu Shan took a breath when he saw this.


    There are more than 2000 people in the Yang family. He is stationed at the gate of the city, but there are no more than 1000 soldiers. If the private soldiers of the Yang family suddenly attack Ximen, the troops under his command will not be able to stop them.


    At this moment, Fu Shan secretly congratulated himself.


    Yang Xiu and his men went straight to the west gate. As soon as they arrived at the west gate tower, Fu Shan negotiated in person. The soldiers stationed on the tower did not resist. They put down their weapons and surrendered, leaving the Yang family''s private soldiers to stay.


    The ranger under Zhang Fang also came quickly.


    Nearly 3000 people have taken control of Simon.


    Zhang Fang looked at the soldiers under Fu Shan''s command and asked, "young master Yang, what should we do with these surrendering soldiers?"


    "No disposal!"


    Yang Xiu shook his head and said, "we don''t have to deal with these people, and it''s not easy to deal with them. To reorganize, we can''t reorganize. To kill, it''s a big killing. "


    "Temporarily, in full custody."


    "When General Zhang leads the army, let general Zhang arrange it."


    Yang Xiu said: "our task is to guard Ximen. Sui Gu rushed out of the city for help. There was a certain possibility that he would escape after defeat. Once Sui Gu withdraws, we have to take charge of the last war, win Sui Gu and end the war. "


    Zhang Fang said: "Sui Gu capital is out of the city, and it is unlikely to come back. There is an ambush arranged by general Zhang. Sui Gu will be defeated. "


    Yang Xiu looked at the scenery outside the city and said, "no matter what, you must be prepared. What if Sui Gu comes back? "


    Zhang Fang nodded and agreed with Yang Xiu''s suggestion.


    You have to be prepared first.

 Chapter 360

    On the muddy official road, the army led by Sui Gu is on the way quickly.


    This time, there were 14000 soldiers under Sui Gu''s command.


    This is sui Gu''s elite soldier.


    Zuo Bing was worried about the situation Yan Liang was facing. While he was on his way quickly, he urged: "general Sui, you have to order the soldiers to be faster. If Zhang Xiu attacks early, it will be very bad for us. "


    Sui Gu was a little tired of hearing this.


    From leaving the city to now, Zuo Bing said this no less than ten times. He is a general in charge of suigu. Zuobin is just a little shrimp, but he gives orders in front of him.


    This made Sui Gu unhappy.


    Sui Gu said coldly: "Zuobin, if you talk about it any more, you will stop fighting immediately. Well, what about later? Can''t general Yan hold on later. If general Yan''s army is so vulnerable, it is not worth my rescue. In this battle, I would have known the proper measure. I don''t need your command. "


    When Zuo Bing heard the speech, he immediately scolded him, but when it came to his mouth, he swallowed it back.


    He can''t conflict with Sui Gu.


    At present, we have to rely on Sui Gu to solve Yan Liang''s dilemma.


    Sui Gu looks at the left soldier who doesn''t speak. He hums coldly and doesn''t speak any more. He continues on his way. It''s just that it''s a great trouble for the soldiers to go on their way at this time.


    Because of the heavy rain last night, the road was muddy and the soldiers were in deep trouble.


    For soldiers, it takes too much energy.


    When the suigu army was on its way, four miles away from the location of the suigu army, in the woods on both sides of the official road, there was an ambush of Langya battalion cavalry led by Chen Zhi.


    This is a slope.


    The slope is more than 200 Zhang long, about 45 degrees, and the road is about three Zhang wide. It is called Changping slope.


    To go to suigu''s location, you must climb Changping slope. The heavy rain last night made the road muddy, and the mud on the slope was very soft. When I stepped on it, the sole of my foot was full of mud, so it was hard to walk.


    This is Chen Dao''s chosen ambush point.


    He ambushed Sui Gu on Changping slope to prevent him from rescuing Yan Liang.


    Today, Chen Dao can command not only 3000 elite soldiers of Langya camp, but also 4000 elite soldiers of fierce tiger army. Even, Chen Dao has got news from the rear that Zhang Xiu captured Yan Liang alive and captured more than 10000 troops under Yan Liang''s command.


    It''s up to him when the war in the rear is over.


    "Newspaper!"


    A soldier ran quickly and quickly came to Chen Dao''s side, reporting: "general, Sui Gu''s army is coming. It''s less than three miles from us. "


    "I see."


    Chen Dao nodded.


    He was on the top of Changping slope, standing at a high place, looking out, looking at it from a distance, he could see the scenery a few miles away. However, from a long distance, Chen Dao could only see the position of Sui Gu''s army and the moving heads, but he could not see his face clearly.


    Chen Dao waited quietly.


    As time went by, the army led by Sui Gu was getting closer and closer to changpingpo.


    Sui Gu takes the soldiers on his way quickly. Although he scolds sun Bing, he is actually worried about Yan Liang''s safety. In fact, he is speeding up his way.


    Arriving at changpingpo, Sui Gu looked at it. Without delay, he ordered: "the changpingpo road is muddy and easy to slip. Please be careful."


    All the soldiers under his command began to go up.


    Sui Gu and sun Bing were also in the crowd, but the road was too muddy. When they stepped down and raised their feet, they were covered with a lot of soil, making it very inconvenient to walk.


    The width of Changping slope is more than three Zhang, plus the length of the slope, about half the distance, most of the soldiers under Sui Gu''s command are already on the slope.


    It was easy to climb a long flat slope.


    But now, it''s not easy.


    After all, it''s hard to walk.


    "Faster, faster, go up earlier. We climbed the Changping slope and rested for a quarter of an hour. "


    Sui Gu gave the order.


    After the order was given, the soldiers in the army were relieved to hear it. Out of the county seat of Huayin County, we are on our way all the time. Now it''s good to stop and have a rest. After all, it''s such a long journey.


    Everyone, keep going up.


    Thirty steps!


    Fifty steps!


    Eighty steps!


    When Sui Gu and his party got closer and closer to the top of Changping slope, they shortened to less than 50 steps. Chen Zhi led the soldiers out directly.


    One by one, the soldiers lined up.


    Chen Dao said in a high voice: "Sui Gu, I have been waiting for Chen here for a long time."


    "Archer, shoot!"


    Chen Dao didn''t have any unnecessary nonsense, so he ordered the attack directly.


    One by one, the archers came forward with bows and arrows, and fired directly at the army of suigu on the Changping slope. The dense rain of arrows passed through the air and fell on Sui Gu''s army in an instant."Puchi! Wheezing


    A bow and arrow, constantly into the body, with a canopy of blood.


    Blood splashed, many soldiers died on the spot, and countless soldiers were injured.


    Sui Gu saw this scene, the corner of his mouth smoked, and his face showed anger. At this time, he suddenly understood that Zhang Xiuming knew that a soldier might ask for help. How could he not stop the rescue army?


    We''re in ambush!


    Sui Gu''s heart gave birth to this idea.


    In a flash, Sui Gu immediately cheered up. As long as the enemy was on the Changping slope, he could get rid of the current predicament and was not affected by the bow and arrow.


    Under Sui Gu''s command, there were more than 10000 elite soldiers.


    Sui Gu didn''t think the soldiers in ambush could resist his troops.


    "Kill, kill up!"


    Sui Gu gave a loud order, shouting: "as long as we kill changpingpo, we can turn the situation around. Go up and kill the enemy. "


    With Sui Gu shouting, the soldiers kept rushing up.


    Bow and arrow, still shooting.


    The number of casualties is still increasing.


    The distance is also getting closer.


    Forty steps!


    Thirty steps!


    When the distance shortened to 20 steps, Sui Gu''s rough face appeared a smile. It''s only 20 steps away. As long as his soldiers cheer up, they can rush up.


    It''s just around the corner.


    All of a sudden, Sui Gu''s face was dignified, and his pupils shrank, showing a look of shock.


    At the top of Changping slope, the ambush soldier pushed three huge stone balls to the edge. Each stone ball is ten feet high and has been polished around it for easy rolling. It weighs thousands of Jin.


    The appearance of three stone balls is across the official road.


    "Dodge, get ready to dodge!"


    Sui Gu see stone ball, already is incomparable anxious, loud cry. With the shouts of Sui Gu, all the soldiers on Changping slope changed greatly.


    Because on both sides of Changping slope are rocks, it is impossible to climb up after rain.


    They have nowhere to hide.


    Chen Dao looked at Sui Gu''s confused army with a smile on his lips. He was well prepared for this ambush. In his opinion, even without the help of the fierce tiger army, it was easy for him to defeat Sui Gu''s reinforcements.


    It''s not hard to win.


    "Push it down!"


    Chen Dao shouts. In an instant, three stone balls are pushed out.


    Boom!!


    Three stone balls were pushed out from the top of the Changping slope and rolled down rapidly. The road is muddy. After the ground is soaked, the rolling speed of the stone ball is extremely fast and irresistible.


    In the blink of an eye, the stone ball hit countless soldiers. In front of the stone ball more than ten feet high, even though the soldiers were dense on the slope, they could not resist.


    Screams, one after another.


    Countless soldiers were crushed by the stone ball and died miserably under it.


    Countless soldiers ran away in panic. They couldn''t rush up because there were still archers suppressing them. The only way for the soldiers is to retreat.


    "Back, back!"


    Sui Gu saw the falling stone ball and gave a loud order. He turned and ran down quickly. As he ran, he looked at the rolling direction of the falling stone ball. Seeing the stone ball rolling down from his side, he was secretly glad.


    Suddenly, Sui Gu''s pupil shrinks.


    He saw Zuo Bing. Like him, Zuo Bing turned around and ran down the mountain. Unfortunately, Zuo Bing ran down, didn''t notice the movement in the rear, didn''t avoid the stone ball, and was killed by the stone ball.


    Sui Gu felt sorry in his heart and ordered to retreat, but he continued to run down the mountain.

 Chapter 361

    At this time, Sui Gu was scared out of his wits. He had no idea. He didn''t want to rescue Yan Liang any more, and he didn''t want to climb changpingpo. He just wanted to retreat quickly and get rid of this land of right and wrong.


    He''s going to run away.


    Keep your life.


    Sui Gu and his soldiers retreated quickly, but many of them slipped in the process of running down, so that they fell to the ground and fell.


    Before the fallen soldier stood up, the soldiers from the rear rushed in savagely and fiercely, ignoring the fallen soldier completely and stepping on the fallen soldier directly, forming a stampede.


    Many even stepped on the fallen soldiers.


    Because stepping on people doesn''t slip.


    Originally, there were only three stone balls. The stone ball rolled down and hit the place, causing countless deaths and injuries. But now, where the stone ball didn''t run, there was a panic. Countless soldiers kept running down, regardless of everything.


    The continuous trampling makes the stone ball crush not many soldiers, on the contrary, many soldiers are trampled.


    "Boom!"


    On the Changping slope, there are stone balls rolling down again.


    There are three stone balls rolling down, these three stone balls have fallen down, across the official road, ferocious rolling down.


    Where we have passed, we are filled with sorrow.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Shouts, one after another.


    Countless soldiers shout, countless soldiers quickly retreat down Changping slope.


    The people at the back became the first to rush out of Changping slope, and soldiers retreated one after another.


    Sui Gu successfully dodged the stone ball and retreated to the slope. He was relieved and looked at the soldiers who were standing behind him. He took a breath and said: "if you have the ability, you can put the stone ball again. Six stone balls, you have the ability to take six stone balls and throw them down


    Chen Dao stood on Changping slope with a calm look and a smile on his lips.


    He would not stay.


    Sui Gu did not withdraw.


    Chen said in a loud voice, "Sui Gu, I don''t have any stone balls. But I only use the stone ball, and this bow and arrow shooting, it doesn''t cost a soldier. The ambush just now has damaged at least 3000 soldiers under your command. "


    On the Changping slope, corpses were piled up.


    Countless people died on the slope.


    Sui Gu looked back and saw a corpse on the slope with a gloomy face.


    More than 3000 soldiers were killed and wounded under his command.


    In fact, there are not many people killed by stone balls. Although there are many people killed by bows and arrows, they are not the most. Most of the casualties came from trampling on each other during the retreat. Countless soldiers were forced to retreat. They did not care about the lives of the soldiers who slipped and fell, so that there were countless casualties.


    Sui Gu is biting his teeth, thinking about it in his heart.


    Just now, he heard the leader of the mountain say that there is no stone ball.


    Instinctively, he wants to go up.


    But Sui Gu''s heart suspects that Chen Dao is deceiving him.


    Chen Dao said again: "Sui Gu, do you want to fight again and worry that I will cheat you. Alas, Chen Dao always treats people with sincerity and doesn''t like lying. As long as you rush up, I promise you won''t push the stone ball. Six stone balls cost me countless human resources. There are no more stone balls. "


    "I believe you."


    Sui Gu bit his teeth and said, "Chen Dao, don''t try to cheat me. Well, I won''t believe you. "


    Chen Dao said, "if you don''t come up, how can you rescue Yan Liang?"


    Sui Gu looks gloomy.


    If he doesn''t rescue Yan Liang now, Yan Liang will become a lonely army and will be destroyed. This is what Sui Gu is most anxious about.


    When he went downhill earlier, he wanted to fly back to Huayin County immediately.


    At the moment, I''m in a dilemma.


    He had to save Yan Liang.


    Sui Gu took a deep breath, and said again: "sons, Zhang Xiu''s army on the mountain has no stone ball. Run for me, kill me, and take revenge for my dead son. "


    When the order was given, the soldiers winced.


    The soldiers were scared.


    The attack of the stone ball just now is really terrible. If there is no stone ball, there will be another weapon?


    That''s what the soldiers are worried about.


    Seeing this, Chen Dao laughed and said, "Sui Gu, do you see the advice of your soldiers? One by one, soldiers are afraid of death and dare not charge again. In my opinion, don''t support Yan Liang. After all, you can''t stand on your own. Now surrender to my Lord, and I promise you that you will not be degraded. "


    Sui Gu gritted his teeth and said, "Chen Dao, stop talking nonsense. If you have courage, you can kill it


    Chen Dao said: "my task is to stop you from rescuing Yan Liang. It''s you Sui Gu, not me Chen Dao, who want to cross Changping slope. You have the guts, you come up. I''m here, waiting for you to come up and die. "


    Sui Gu is biting his teeth, very angry.


    Damn Chen Dao.


    Blocking changpingpo, guarding his main road to rescue Yanliang.At this time, Chen to the side of a soldier came, reported: "general, the tiger army all in place, to the rear of suigu."


    Chen Dao showed a smile on his face.


    It''s done.


    The reason why he talks with Sui Gu is to delay time, stabilize Sui Gu and prevent him from retreating. When Chen arrived at changpingpo, he not only blocked Sui Gu, but also defeated him.


    On changpingpo, there are 3000 elite of Langya camp under his command.


    This is to stop Sui Gu from rushing up.


    The rest of the four thousand fierce tiger troops were lying in ambush on both sides of the official road behind Sui Gu. In order to avoid being discovered by Sui Gu, they all hid far away. Chen Dao delayed so long that all the fierce tigers were in place and arrived at the rear of Sui Gu.


    "Sui Gu, don''t you want ben to come down? Now, Ben is in the future! "


    "Kill


    Chen Dao gave the order.


    With that, Chen Dao took the lead, carrying a long gun down the Changping slope.


    Although Changping slope is slippery, Chen Dao''s soldiers walk slowly and steadily down.


    This scene falls into Sui Gu''s eyes.


    Sui Gu was overjoyed. It was a chance given by heaven. If the two armies fought, and there were many others, they would surely win. Sui Gu took the sword in his hand again and ordered: "son Lang, Chen, the dog thief has come down. Kill me, kill up, kill Chen Dao. "


    The soldiers had to be ordered to kill.


    The two sides, one on the slope and the other under the slope, soon fought together.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Although the soldiers under Sui Gu''s command were still in shock, after all, there were a lot of people. One by one, the soldiers were killed. They thought that they were able to defeat Chen Dao in this battle, so they had high morale.


    "Woo! Woo


    The rapid sound of the horn resounded through the battlefield.


    The sound of the horn came quite suddenly from the rear of Sui Gu''s army.


    With the rapid sound of the horn, the dark army suddenly appeared from the rear of Sui Gu. Four thousand fierce tiger troops appeared. In a moment, they entered the rear army of suigu.


    One by one, the fierce tiger troops slashed and killed the soldiers.


    The soldiers of Sui Gu are still fighting high. All of a sudden, they found that they were ambushed again. They were caught between the front and the back. The soldiers were in a panic. They were no longer in a state of high morale and panic.


    "Chen to the dog thief, you cheat again."


    Sui Gu heard the bugle from the rear and saw the soldiers in his rear were in a mess. He was very anxious.


    Damn it!


    Damn Chen Dao!


    Cheat him again!


    What is meant by no ambush? What is meant by going down the mountain to fight? This is clearly a deliberate ambush.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Sui Gu gave a loud order.


    He was afraid of being beaten by Chen Dao. He felt that Chen Dao was extremely cunning and his means were out of the ordinary.


    At this moment, Sui Gu put out the idea of rescuing Yan Liang, only to withdraw Huayin county first, and help the city guard of Huayin county. If Huayin county can''t keep it, it''s a big deal to withdraw Hanoi county.


    With the order of Sui Gu, the soldiers gave up their resistance and retreated quickly.


    But the current situation is one of front and back attacks.


    Even if Sui Gu''s soldiers retreated, they were covered up and killed in front and behind, resulting in countless losses.


    Chen to looking at the withdrawal of Sui Gu, there is a touch of regret in his eyes. The road was muddy, and the horses could not run and sprint, so even if Sui Gu retreated, Chen Dao was not easy to cover up.


    If the road is easy, his cavalry will come and go like the wind, enough to cover up Sui Gu, or even leave him.


    Now there''s no way.


    We can only rely on Zhang Fang of Huayin county.


    When he was hiding in changpingpo, he had been informed of Zhang Fang''s plan to seize the city. What we need to do now is to pursue and kill Sui Gu and hit Sui Gu as hard as possible.


    The final ambush was completed by Zhang Fang, who was ambushed in Huayin county.

 Chapter 362

    Chen Dao and his soldiers quickly cover up and kill the Sui Gu soldiers who fall behind.


    Where you pass, you will be overwhelmed.


    Now Sui Gu retreated in the direction of Huayin County, and the soldiers lost their morale. They were as frightened as a lost dog, and they were completely reduced to fish on the chopping board and left to be slaughtered.


    If you are caught up, you will die.


    Many people are on the run.


    In the gradual escape, soldiers began to surrender.


    With the first, there will be a second, and even more and more troops will be sent down. It was like a plague. It spread quickly in Sui Gu''s army. As long as the soldiers were caught up, they surrendered one after another.


    Sui Gu retreated with his soldiers.


    The more you retreat, the fewer soldiers you have.


    Sui Gu led his troops to the rescue of Yan Liang, with a total of 14000 people. In the first battle of changpingpo, a simple climb didn''t touch a single hair of the soldiers of the other side, resulting in the death and injury of 3000 or 4000 people, with only 10000 soldiers left.


    The losses are enormous.


    For Sui Gu, after fighting for so many years, he has never been so subdued or so calculated. His attack to changpingpo will be calculated, and his retreat to changpingpo will be calculated.


    It''s too bad.


    All the way, the soldiers under his command died, escaped and surrendered, and the soldiers under his command were less than 6000. Sui Gu killed half of the enemy''s strength, which made him lose a lot.


    Is this war?


    It''s not a war, it''s a sacrifice.


    Sui Gu wants to vomit blood in his heart. He orders to retreat. Although the number of soldiers is still decreasing, he has seen the tower of Huayin county from a distance.


    Return to Huayin County!


    As long as he enters the county, he can take advantage of the county to rest and defend. Even if he is weak, when Zhang Xiu''s army arrives, he can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, it doesn''t matter. He directly exits Huayin county and Hanoi.


    Anyway, take a break.


    "Come on, speed up the retreat. We''ll be safe when we get back to the city. "


    Sui Gu ordered again.


    All the retreating soldiers saw the city of Huayin county and looked forward to it.


    Return to the county!


    This is their wild hope.


    A hundred feet!


    Eighty feet!


    The distance to the west gate of Huayin county is getting closer and closer, and the distance is soon shortened to 20 Zhang.


    "Open the gate, open the gate for me."


    Sui Gu ran in the front and gave a loud order. With the shouts of Sui Gu, the gate creaks open.


    "Come on, get back to the city."


    Seeing the open gate, Sui Gu looked happy and eager. He wanted to fly directly to the tower to avoid the attack.


    Sui Gu''s soldiers, too.


    One by one, they wanted to fly into the city at once.


    At the same time, on the tower, Yang Xiushen was wearing a white robe. He was elegant and elegant, and he looked at the retreating Sui Gu with a smile. He looked at the side of Zhang Fang, said with a smile: "how, Sui Gu really escaped back."


    Zhang Fang completely convinced Yang Xiu.


    Before that, Yang Xiu decided that Sui Gu might retreat back, so he took control of Ximen and quickly made the arrangement.


    Everything is waiting for Sui Gu to come back.


    Huayin county is the westernmost County of Hongnong county. It is neither an important town nor a strategic location. The city of Huayin county is not big. There is no urn in the city, only a wall.


    After entering the gate, there is an official road leading to the center of the city.


    Sui Gu with soldiers running fast, soon came to the gate. He did not doubt, quickly with the soldiers into the city. The road outside the city was muddy, and it was difficult to walk after the rain. So many soldiers rushed to the city.


    After Sui Gu led his troops into the city, he went around to the gallop leading to the city tower and prepared to climb the city tower. But as soon as he entered the lane, before he reached half the distance, he saw archers springing up and shooting at Sui Gu and others.


    The dense bows and arrows fell, and the soldiers under Sui Gu''s command were killed and injured countless times.


    Sui Gu was confused when he arrived.


    What''s going on?


    The county seat of Huayin County, which is his territory, is controlled by him, how suddenly appeared another army.


    "Fu Shan, you son of a bitch, where have you been?"


    Sui Gu roared, very angry.


    Fu Shan on the tower heard that he didn''t show his face. He just hid himself in the army and silently directed the soldiers to shoot arrows. He has betrayed Sui Gu, so he can''t talk to Sui Gu any more.


    Sui Gu was shot by random arrows and couldn''t rush to the city building for a short time.


    He looked at the troops on the top of the city. He was very anxious. He didn''t expect that Huayin county would change its owner just after he left Huayin county. Sui Gu has no way to speculate how Huayin county changed its owner. Now he can only avoid the ambush in the city."Retreat, to the north gate."


    Sui Gu gave a quick order.


    Now that Simon is lost, he can only retreat to the second place, to the city, and then to the north gate.


    From the north gate.


    The soldiers under Sui Gu''s command turned to the north gate to break through. When Sui Gu was about to break through, Chen Dao''s pursuers had already arrived outside the city.


    Chen looked far away and saw the flag on the top of the city.


    At the moment, after Sui Gu entered the city, the city has rapidly changed its flag. Sui Gu''s big flag has become Zhang Xiu''s big flag. A big flag embroidered with the word "Zhang" swings in the air and makes a sound of hunting.


    Seeing this, Chen Dao knew that Zhang Fang had succeeded.


    Huayin county has changed its ownership.


    Chen to ordered to continue to pursue, led the army along the city gate into, continue to attack suigu soldiers. When Chen Dao attacked, Sui Gu led his soldiers along the official road leading to the center of the city, trying to get rid of the rear army.


    But after less than 100 steps, a long Spearman appeared in front of him.


    A long gun forward, sharp.


    This is Yang''s private soldier.


    Yang Xiu had long predicted that Sui Gu failed to enter Chi Road, and he would break through along the streets of the city and set up an ambush early. Although the street is wide, there are houses on both sides. The doors of all houses are closed, and the people have been hiding for a long time.


    Sui Gu looked around. In front of him, a long Spearman stopped him. Later, Chen came to kill him. He was blocked and couldn''t get away.


    There''s no escape.


    Sui Gu''s heart gave birth to such an idea.


    "Surrender


    Sui Gu''s mind turned and gave an order immediately.


    As a black mountain thief, although Sui Gu had read a book and knew military strategy, in his heart, there was no theory of loyalty, only the idea of respecting the strong.


    When he was defeated and in a desperate situation, Sui Gu didn''t want to fight to death, so he chose to surrender to save his life.


    As long as you''re alive, there''s everything.


    If you die, there''s nothing left.


    After Sui Gu ordered to surrender, his soldiers no longer resisted and threw away their weapons to surrender.


    Chen Dao saw this behind the scenes, a little surprised, but a little disappointed.


    Sui Gu asked to surrender, then he lost the chance to kill Sui Gu. This is a great achievement.


    What a pity!


    Chen Dao shook his head and ordered to take over the weapons and detain Sui Gu''s soldiers.


    After proper arrangement, Chen Dao comes to the tower and meets Zhang Fang. In his letter, Zhang Fang already knew that the general was Chen Dao. When he saw Chen Dao for the first time, he had no hesitation on his face and said, "General Chen, I''m Zhang Fang of the royal guards."


    With that, Zhang Fang introduced Yang Xiu and his identity.


    Chen Dao was shocked when he heard the speech.


    Yang Xiu, the son of Yang Biao.


    Hongnong is a member of the Yang family.


    Although Chen Dao is a military general, he knows the situation of the world. He knows the identity of Yang Biao and the details and weight of Hongnong''s Yang family.


    Chen did not dare to be careless. He arched his hand and said, "this time we can capture Huayin county. Thank you for your help."


    Yang xiudao: "General Chen, you are welcome."


    He has also heard of Chen Dao.


    After all, Chen Dao is a strong general under Zhang Xiu''s command, and he is the commander of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Yang Xiu didn''t say much. He said, "when the war ended, the Yang family''s disciples retired. Next, the city defense of Huayin county and the affairs of Huayin county will be handed over to General Chen. "


    Chen Dao said: "the success of Huayin county this time is due to young master Yang. When the Lord arrives, Chen will report to him at the meeting. "


    "Thank you very much."


    After thanking him, Yang Xiu turned and left.


    Yang''s children, orderly withdrawal, no longer stay.


    After Yang Xiu and his soldiers left, Chen Dao arranged for the soldiers to take over the city defense. Then he looked at Zhang Fang and asked about Yang Xiu and his plan.


    After hearing this, Chen Dao lamented that Yang Xiu was so fierce that he won Fu Shan and seized the control of Huayin county. He laid an ambush in advance, waiting for Sui Gu to return.


    If it wasn''t for Yang Xiu''s plan, it would not be easy to win Sui Gu easily.


    After Chen Dao had arranged everything, he called the soldiers to send a letter to Zhang Xiu, telling her everything about the war in Huayin county. After all this, Chen Dao quietly waited for the soldiers to deal with the war.

 Chapter 363

    Zhang Xiu led the army to escort Yan Liang and his soldiers on their way. When the army arrived at changpingpo, it received the news from Chen Zhi that he had captured Sui Gu and captured Huayin county.


    This is what Zhang Xiu expected.


    However, when Zhang Xiu learned that this time, there was Yang Xiu''s hand, he was stunned.


    Yang Xiu!


    This is a famous existence in history.


    Yang Xiu is a man of great intelligence.


    In his first life, Zhang Xiu was obedient to Cao Cao and met Yang Xiu. He was a very talented man. Only Yang Xiu''s family background limited his future.


    The reason is very simple. Yang Biao is an old minister of the Han Dynasty and loyal to the emperor. Yang Biao''s family background determines that even if Yang Xiu''s talent is outstanding, he is considered to be the first generation of the emperor and is limited.


    Zhang Xiu looks forward to Yang Xiu.


    From the Yang family willing to help him, and help him win Huayin County analysis, Yang Xiu and Yang family at least do not resist him Zhang Xiu. There is also a great chance to attract Yang Xiu.


    After all, Yang Xiu didn''t go to Xudu.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and quickly went to Huayin county.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at changpingpo, she saw the corpse in changpingpo. At a glance, she didn''t see the corpses of her soldiers. Zhang Xiu was determined.


    Obviously, Chen Dao used the terrain of Changping slope to ambush Sui Gu.


    Zhang Xiu left some soldiers to clean up the battlefield and continued on her way. After a short walk, I came across soldiers sweeping the battlefield along the way. At the end of the battle, Chen''s soldiers set out from Huayin county and returned along the official road to clean up the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu continued on her way and arrived in Huayin county. The army entered and stationed in the city.


    Army, count the losses.


    In the evening, when all the statistics were finished, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao came to the Chinese Army''s account.


    Huang Zhong said: "Lord, all the results have been counted."


    Zhang xiudao: "how about the specific loss?"


    Huang Zhong replied: "in this war, we captured Yan Liang and Sui Gu, captured more than 21000 people and killed more than 5000 soldiers. A large number of soldiers belonging to Yan Liang and Sui Gu fled. "


    "In addition, we also seized more than 1300 horses."


    "In this battle, our army won a complete victory."


    "We lost less than a thousand soldiers."


    "For us, this war was a bloodless battle, and we won Huayin county."


    On Huang Zhong''s face, he looked excited.


    There are so many captives from whom the selection of elite can once again enrich the combat effectiveness of the army.


    Zhang xiujunlang also showed a bright smile on his cheek. His eyes swept over Wang Yue, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao, and said, "this victory is not only the great help of the royal guards, but also the efforts of the fierce tiger army, the flying bear army and the Langya camp. We have won the war completely. We will make statistics of the war situation and record the meritorious service so that we can give awards. "


    "I''ll do it


    All of us should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "the army took a rest in Huayin County for two days. Two days later, we sent troops to capture the rest of Hongnong county and take Hongnong County in our hands."


    "Here it is


    The crowd responded again.


    Zhang Xiu asked everyone to perform their duties and deal with the affairs in the army.


    One by one things are handled properly, Zhang Xiu asks Wang Yue to inform Zhang Fang.


    This time, Zhang Fang made a great contribution.


    Although Yang Xiu mobilized the Yang family''s private soldiers to help, it would be difficult for the Yang family to seize Huayin county without Zhang Fang''s persuasion.


    At least, Sui Gu will not be captured so easily.


    Thanks to Zhang Fang.


    Wang Yue arranged for someone to inform him. It wasn''t long before Zhang Fang came to the army. His face is full of excitement at the moment, he is just the bottom of the royal guards, his identity is very low.


    Unexpectedly, he was personally received by Zhang Xiu, and his heart was very surging.


    Zhang Fang stood at the gate of the camp, straightened his clothes and waited for the soldiers to inform him. Soon the soldier came out and waved him in. Zhang Fang took a deep breath and stepped into the camp.


    As soon as he entered, Zhang Fang saw Zhang Xiu and knelt down on the ground like a jade pillar. He said, "humble Zhang Fang, I''d like to meet general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "General Xie."


    Zhang Fang stood up and looked at Zhang Xiu carefully. Yang Duan Xiu is even more awed than Zhang Duan Hai.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s face is handsome, and her angular face is full of wisdom and bravery.


    Zhang Fang was shocked.


    Originally, in his cognition, Zhang Xiu should be a middle-aged man, but he did not expect that Zhang Xiu was so young.


    Young and promising!


    Zhang Fang''s heart sighed, and quickly lowered his head, did not dare to stare at Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu said slowly: "you are the first to win Huayin county this time. It is wise to go to the Yang family and persuade them to send troops; it is courageous to dare to capture Huayin county. You have both wisdom and courage. That''s very good. "


    Zhang Fang''s heart was immediately excited. He didn''t expect that he would get such high praise. He said modestly: "General Zhang''s praise is ridiculous. His humble position only depends on General Zhang''s power to persuade the Yang family. If you don''t have the prestige of General Zhang, I''m afraid you''ll be beaten out as soon as you get to the Yang family. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you have to reward for your meritorious service. I have ordered you to be the general in charge of the royal guards of Hongnong county. I don''t need to talk about the duties of the royal guards. You should not only ensure that there are royal guards in Huayin County, but also ensure that there are royal guards in all counties of Hongnong County, so that you can know exactly the news of all places. If there is any change, report it immediately. "


    Zhang Fang was even more excited. He knelt down again and said, "I will obey you. Please rest assured. I will do my best to live up to your expectations."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Zhang Fang got up and stepped down. When he came out of the camp, he was a little bit adrift at his feet.


    He''s a general.


    He is also responsible for the royal guards of Hongnong county.


    Power has increased.


    At this moment, Zhang Fang''s back was straight and his face was calm and proud. A person''s strength, as well as a person''s spirit, has a lot to do with his environment.


    The so-called poor people have short ambitions.


    Now, Zhang Fang is different from the past. Did he meet Zhang Xiu or was he appointed by Zhang Xiu himself.


    After Zhang Fang left, Zhang Xiu began to think about Yang Xiu. His original intention was to arrange for people to invite Yang Xiu, but the Yang family was different. The Yang family was a famous family, a real family of Zanying.


    This kind of big family can''t be waved around, it has to give some face.


    At least, let the Yang family face off.


    After Zhang Xiu has a decision, when she gets up and walks out of the barracks, she takes Deng Zhan out of the barracks and goes to the Yang family. They rode on horseback for a short time and arrived at the gate of the Yang family.


    Deng Zhanxian got off his horse and came to the door. He said, "please inform me. Zhennan General Zhang Xiu has come to see you."


    On hearing this, the porter turned back to report.


    When Yang Yong knew the news, he first sent someone to inform Yang Xiu to meet him. Then he changed his black robe, wore a long crown, and wore a broad collar shirt. He was very solemn.


    After all, it''s Zhang Xiu.


    Even if Zhang Xiu is young, even if Zhang Xiu is only a captain of Sili school, today''s Zhang Xiu is rising very fast and has great strength. Even if it is Yang Yong, it can''t be ignored.


    Soon, Yang Xiu came.


    When Yang Yong saw Yang Xiu, he ordered, "let''s go. Don''t let people wait."


    Yang Xiu nodded and went to the gate with Yang Yong.

 Chapter 364

    After a short time, Yang Yong and Yang Xiu come to the gate and meet Zhang Xiu who is waiting. Yang Yong shook his sleeve robe, folded his hands, arched his hands and said, "Yang Yong, I''ve seen General Zhang."


    Yang Xiu look calm, neither humble nor overbearing way: "Yang Xiu, met General Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu saluted Yang Yong and Yang Xiu at the same time.


    Yang Yong said, "General Zhang, please!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    He was also impolite. He immediately walked in front of him and went to the hall with Yang Yong and Yang Xiu.


    Three people enter, and the guest and host take their seats.


    With a smile on his face, Yang Yong said, "General Zhang''s visit to the Yang family has made the Yang family shine. This time, general Zhang collected Huayin county. Congratulations. With general Zhang here, countless people will not be attacked by war, and Huayin county will be able to settle down. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Yang Gong has been praised falsely."


    Before coming, Zhang Xiu learned about Yang Yong through Wang Yue, and knew that Yang Yong was Yang Biao''s younger brother.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "it depends on the help of the Yang family to successfully conquer Huayin county this time. Without the help of the Yang family, it is not easy to capture Sui Gu alive and capture Huayin county. "


    Yang Yong, with a soft look, stroked his long beard under his jaw and said, "it''s not worth mentioning to lift a hand."


    Zhang Xiu and Yang Yong both said compliments to each other.


    Huahua sedan chair carries people, and the atmosphere is warm.


    After a long time of talking, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Yang Xiu and said with a smile, "this time Sui Gu can be captured without dezu''s plan. Although dezu is young, he is extremely intelligent and can be called a young talent. "


    Yang Xiu, the word dezu.


    Zhang Xiu directly addressed Yang Xiu as a sign of closeness.


    Yang xiudao said: "General Zhang''s praise is ridiculous. Yang Xiu''s talent is just like a firefly compared with general Zhang. General Zhang entered Nanyang County last year. In one year, he defeated Huang Jin, killed Xiongnu, retired Cao Cao and defeated Li Guosi


    "Up to now, general Zhang, as a commander of Sili school and a general of Zhennan, has never been better or better than general Zhang in the world."


    "In terms of achievements, general Zhang is really powerful, and Yang Xiuyin is a model."


    Yang Xiu really admired Zhang Xiu.


    Yang Xiu is a very proud man with outstanding talent. He once deduced that he was Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Ji was killed, he had to be based in Nanyang County and solve many difficulties. He couldn''t do it and didn''t have this ability.


    Zhang Xiu did it.


    Not only that, Zhang Xiu also laid a huge territory.


    He admired it.


    Zhang Xiu''s age, in particular, seems to be slightly younger than him.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "dezu, you and I don''t have to flatter each other. This time in the future, one is to thank the Yang family for their help, and the other is to hope that dezu will become an official and help me. I don''t know. Is dezu willing to condescend? "


    When Yang Yong heard this, he felt happy for Yang Xiu. It was an opportunity.


    Today, Zhang embroidery is at its peak.


    It''s an excellent opportunity for Yang Xiu to work under Zhang Xiu''s command. Yang Yong''s eyes fell on Yang Xiu and nodded one after another, hoping that Yang Xiu would agree.


    When Yang Xiu heard the speech, he was not impatient.


    He didn''t agree immediately.


    Yang Xiu said: "it''s a great honor for Yang Xiu to get general Zhang''s solicitation. But I have a question. If I surrender to General Zhang. In the future, the two armies of General Zhang and Cao Cao will line up, and Cao Cao will threaten his father''s life and order general Zhang to withdraw. What should general Zhang do? "


    After hearing this, Yang Yong''s face changed greatly.


    The problem is extremely difficult.


    He glared at Yang Xiu and scolded him for being rude. He asked such a question.


    It''s hard to solve.


    First, Yang Biao was an old minister in the imperial court and was known to be loyal to the emperor. With Yang Biao''s temperament, it is definitely impossible for him to leave Xudu ahead of time. Even if Zhang Xiu arranges people to go to Xu Du, she can''t take Yang Biao away.


    Second, if Zhang Xiu said that regardless of Yang Biao''s life or death, what would Yang Xiu think? The answer is obvious. If so, Yang Xiu can''t work for Zhang Xiu.


    Third, if Zhang Xiu withdraws under the threat of Cao Cao, she will not be able to take into account the overall situation and will affect the war with Cao Cao.


    It''s a tricky question.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Yang Xiu''s inquiry, she didn''t look surprised.


    In the world of great struggle, the monarch chooses his ministers, and so do his ministers. In order to attract Yang Xiu, Zhang Xiu needs to consider Yang Xiu''s talent. In the same way, Yang Xiu has to test Zhang Xiu to find out if he wants to be loyal.


    Zhang Xiu''s brain is spinning, thinking about the solution quickly.


    All of a sudden, he had an idea.


    He has a solution to Yang Xiu''s problem.


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "the problem of dezu seems troublesome, but it''s not difficult, and it''s easy to solve. Before we can come up with such a solution, we have to talk about the situation of "Wen Xian Gong"


    Yang Biao is the pioneer of literature.Zhang Xiu was called wenxiangong to show her respect for Yang Biao.


    "What''s my father''s situation?" Yang Xiu asked


    Zhang Xiu explained: "Cao Cao''s coercion of the emperor to move the capital to Xuchang is not to respect the emperor, not to support the emperor wholeheartedly, but to command the princes to control the power."


    "All the old ministers in the court, as well as those who were famous and loyal to the emperor, were suppressed by Cao Cao."


    "Wen Xiangong is the leader of Han Dynasty officials, with great prestige and leading officials. It was Wen Xiangong that Cao Cao first suppressed. When Cao Cao had just moved his capital to Xuchang, he found a reason and put Wen Xiangong in prison. "


    "Thanks to Wen Xiangong''s high prestige and respect at home, Cao Cao didn''t dare to do anything rashly, so he was released."


    "Nowadays, Wen Xiang is idle at home."


    Zhang xiudao said: "with the status and status of Wen Xiangong, Cao Cao can''t reuse it, or even wish Wen Xiangong could leave Xudu, so as not to hinder Cao Cao."


    "Because Wen Xiangong was there and loyal to the emperor, there was a leader."


    "To Cao Cao, it''s like a sword hanging on his head."


    This paper expounds the situation of Zhang Kan Xiu.


    That''s what he knows.


    When Yang Xiu heard this, he raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu knew so much about his father.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if you want to bring back Wen Xiangong, you don''t need to do it later. Now is the most appropriate time. Just send a letter to Xudu to ask the emperor to find the materials of dongguanhanji in Hongnong County, which needs to be sorted out. "


    "During the reign of Emperor Ling Xiping, Wen Xiangong, Ma Rili, Cai Yong, Lu Zhi and others continued to write and compile dongguanhanji. He was one of the authors of dongguanhanji."


    "To invite wenxiangong to Hongnong in dongguanhanji, on the one hand, the court can get by, on the other hand, wenxiangong will not resist."


    "After all, the scattered materials of dongguanhanji can be collected everywhere."


    "As long as Wen Xiangong comes to Hongnong, can''t he be left?"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in today''s situation, Cao Cao is afraid of Wen Xiangong, which makes Wen Xiangong unable to become an official. Under such circumstances, it''s very easy to get a letter. "


    Yang Xiu asked, "is Cao Cao not allowed?"


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "in today''s situation, Cao Cao dare not allow it. Cao Cao coerced the emperor to command the princes and occupy the great justice, but he was in the critical stage of attacking Yuan Shu. "


    "Without destroying Yuan Shu, how do the princes treat the emperor of Xudu?"


    "How to treat Cao Cao?"


    "In order to maintain the dignity of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao must win. This is his overall situation. At this time, as long as I ask Wen Xiangong to come to Hongnong County, Cao Cao will certainly agree. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "otherwise, I will threaten Cao Cao from the west of Yanzhou, making him unable to pacify Yuan Shu, and the consequences will be unimaginable."


    "Dezu, what do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu has a smile on her face and looks forward to Yang Xiu''s reply.


    Yang Xiu said with emotion: "there is no empty scholar under the reputation. General Zhang''s resourcefulness is admired by Yang Xiu."


    Yang Xiu agrees with Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    This is the most appropriate strategy.


    On the one hand, Cao Cao can push the boat with the current and contact Yang Biao''s threat; on the other hand, he can make Yang Biao leave Xudu willingly.


    This is killing two birds with one stone.


    Yang Xiu stood up, hands closed, facing Zhang Xiu, solemnly arched his hands and said: "humble Yang Xiu, meet the Lord."

 Chapter 365

    When Yang Yong saw this scene, he was very calm.


    It''s settled.


    Yang Yong is aware of Yang Biao''s situation in Xudu. Under this premise, Yang Yong hoped that the Yang family could rely on a better vassal and Zhang Xiu was the most suitable candidate for the moment.


    Yang Xiu is the most suitable choice to work for Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu also got up and went to Yang Xiu. Holding up Yang Xiu, she said, "dezu is very intelligent. I have dezu''s help. It''s like a fish in water and a tiger in wings. Today, I am the commander of the general''s office


    Chang Shi is a subordinate officer of the general''s office.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s confidant, can hold the official post.


    Zhang Xiu''s appointment of Yang Xiu as the head of the general''s mansion shows that she attaches great importance to Yang Xiu.


    Yang xiudao: "thank you, Lord."


    Zhang Xiu returned to her seat and continued: "as for wenxiangong, dezu can operate first. If Wen Xiangong is brought back to Hongnong as soon as possible, he will not be hindered. "


    Yang Xiu laughed and said, "my Lord, you don''t have to worry about my father''s safety. After all, my father is an old minister of the Han Dynasty and has a high reputation. It is impossible for Cao Cao to threaten his father''s life. Otherwise, what would people think of him? What I said just now just depends on how the Lord answers. "


    Yang Xiu is not worried about Yang Biao''s safety.


    After all, Yang Biao is an old minister.


    If Cao Cao comes to threaten Zhang Xiu''s withdrawal with Yang Biao''s life, how do people in the world view Cao Cao, and who is willing to be loyal to Cao Cao?


    For the time being, Yang Biao''s safety is safe.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu no longer talks much.


    "Zhang Xiu said:" for the moment


    Yang xiudao: "my Lord is wise!"


    As soon as the words changed, Yang xiudao said, "my lord captured Yan Liang and Xu you alive, and destroyed nearly 20000 troops of Yuan Shao. The spread of this matter is bound to make yuan Shaozhen angry. I''m afraid it will not be easy for the Lord to face the attack of Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "although it''s not easy, it''s not a big problem. Yuan Shao has yet to pacify Youzhou. Even if he sent troops to attack, I would dare to fight. I want soldiers and grain to fight Yuan Shao. "


    When Yang Xiu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he also agreed, not to mention that if Yuan Shao wanted to kill her, Zhang Xiu could not withdraw.


    Only one war.


    Moreover, Zhang Xiu has this strength.


    Zhang Xiu and Yang Xiu talk about the situation of Hongnong county. Time flies by. In the evening, Zhang Xiu stays at Yang''s home for dinner.


    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    The atmosphere is even hotter.


    Zhang Xiu, Yang Xiu and Yang Yong all drank a lot of wine.


    Yang Yong was happy in his heart, with a look of excitement in his eyes. He stroked his beard under his jaw and looked slightly drunk. He said slowly, "it''s easy for general Zhang to capture Huayin county and sweep Hongnong county. I don''t know if general Zhang has any consideration for the position of prefect of Hongnong county? "


    When Yang Xiu heard this, he frowned slightly.


    What''s the matter?


    Yang Yong didn''t discuss it with him in advance.


    Zhang Xiu knew what Yang Yong meant when she heard the string song. It was obvious that the Yang family coveted the position of the prefect of Hongnong County, but he didn''t move his face and said: "the candidate for the position of the prefect of Hongnong county has not been determined yet. Is there a suitable person for Yang Gong to mention this


    The look on Yang Yong''s face immediately excited him.


    He had some ideas about Hongnong.


    People like Yang Biao are admired even if they are idle in Xudu. And he stayed at his ancestral home, and his reputation was not limited. He didn''t want to die in his family like this. He also wanted to be the prefect of a county and the shepherd.


    It is impossible for Yang Yong to enter the court.


    After all, the appointment of officials in the court had to go through the emperor and Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu is different here.


    In Yang Yong''s opinion, although Zhang Xiu is a wild road, there is no appointment from the imperial court, but the imperial court does not dare to comment on Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, so it can only agree with Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    It''s a shortcut.


    Yang Yongshen took a deep breath, adjusted his excited mood, and said slowly: "General Zhang wants to choose the person who will be in charge of Hongnong county. In my opinion, there are roughly three considerations."


    "First, experienced and experienced."


    "Young people who lack experience and experience and do not understand the situation of officialdom are easy to be deceived and deceived. Only with sufficient experience and experience can we not be deceived and handle things well. "


    "Second, be familiar with the situation of Hongnong."


    "If we want to govern Hongnong County, if we are not familiar with Hongnong County, we can not know the situation of Hongnong County, and we can not understand the advantages and disadvantages of each place, so it is difficult to govern the place."


    "Third, have enough prestige."


    "Under the management of Duan Lu, there was not much war in Hongnong county. However, Hongnong county had been affected by the war. Its people were fierce and rebellious. It needed people with high prestige to be competent. "


    Yang Yong talked with confidence and said, "I am old and talented, but I also meet these three conditions. Lao Jiu volunteered to be the prefect of Hongnong county and solve the problem of Hongnong County for general Zhang. "Brush!


    Yang Xiu''s face changed slightly.


    Yang Yong is too direct. It''s not proper to ask Zhang Xiu for an official directly.


    Yang xiudao: "my Lord, my uncle is a little drunk. You don''t have to take his words to heart. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yang Yong angrily opened his eyes, took another sip of wine, and said: "dezu, you are now a long history of the general''s residence, but you have a place. Don''t you think about it for your uncle? Don''t open your mouth without asking you to. How to make a decision depends on General Zhang. "


    At the moment, Yang Yong is three points drunk.


    Zhang Xiu saw in the eyes, but in the heart is a sneer, Yang Yong is not drunk, pretend drunk, is a deliberate trial.


    However, Zhang Xiu would not agree.


    Hongnong county is a crucial place, which can not be handed over to Yang Yong. What''s more, the Yang family is a big family in Hongnong county. The prestige of the Yang family is the highest in Hongnong county. If Yang Yong is appointed as the governor of Hongnong County, Hongnong county will become the kingdom of the state and the world of the Yang family.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want.


    As the Lord, we should not only weigh all sides, but also make it impossible for our subordinates to have the sole power.


    This is extremely inappropriate.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t answer Yang Yong''s words. She turned her eyes and fell on Yang Xiu. She said faintly, "dezu, what do you think about Yang Gonggang''s words and his self recommendation?"


    Yang Xiu said: "not right!"


    Yang Yong said angrily, "dezu, what do you say? What''s wrong with me being the grand governor of Hongnong? "


    Yang Xiu didn''t want Yang Yong to become an official, because he knew him well, had great ambition and few talents, lacked ability, and had no experience in governing the local government. To let Yang Yong become an official can only affect the reputation of the Yang family, which is of little help to the Yang family.


    Yang Yong is suitable to stay in his ancestral home.


    That''s all.


    Yang Xiu doesn''t want the Yang family to have trouble because of Yang Yong. He knows better that the purpose of Zhang Xiu''s letting him talk is to make him a villain, because once Zhang Xiu opens his mouth, he will give Yang Yong a qualitative analysis.


    Moreover, it is also a test for him.


    Yang Xiu looked calm and said, "my nephew doesn''t agree with what my uncle said."


    "First, when it comes to experience, my uncle grew up at home since he was a child. He has been at home for decades and has never been an official. You haven''t even been a county magistrate. How can you understand the way of being an official? "


    "You don''t know anything about being an official. If you directly serve as the prefect of Hongnong County, it''s not good for the people. "


    "So I don''t agree!"


    Yang Xiugang elaborated the first point. Yang Yong got up in a rage and yelled, "Yang Xiu, do you want to rebel?"


    "Rebellion?"


    Yang Xiu said faintly, "I am a disciple of the Yang family. How can I talk about rebellion?"


    "Second, we should be familiar with the situation of Hongnong county. Uncle all day long, stay in the house, the door does not go out two door does not step, know Hongnong county up and down how many people? Do you know the situation of Hongnong county? Do you know the county officials of Hongnong county? "


    "You don''t know all this."


    "What about familiarity?"


    Yang Xiu''s sharp retort made Yang Yong blush.


    Yang Yong said angrily, "rebellious son, you are a villain. You are a disciple of the Yang family. You slander me like this."


    When it comes to power, Yang Yong also lost his cool.


    In Yang Yong''s idea, he proposed to fight for the official position of Hongnong Prefecture''s prefect. Yang Xiu subordinated to Zhang Xiu and should help him say good things. As long as he served as the prefect of Hongnong County, the strength of the Yang family can go to a higher level.


    But Yang Xiu not only did not help, but constantly criticized him.


    Make him worthless!


    It''s disgusting.

 Chapter 366

    Hearing Yang Yong''s words, Yang Xiu continued: "what does uncle do when he is angry? Nephew just tells the truth. This is clearly the current situation. You have no talent, but you are affected not only by you, but also by the Yang family. "


    "Third, prestige."


    "My uncle really has a certain deterrent power when he plays up the reputation of the Yang family. But prestige does not depend on the influence of the family, but on self-management of the place, so that the trust of Baixin, this is prestige. "


    "Uncle, please think twice."


    Yang Xiu refuted three points one after another. Then he looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, as for the candidate of the prefect of Hongnong County, I suggest that you choose another person who is good and capable. Otherwise, if you let your uncle be the prefect, it will only make the people suffer losses. After all, your uncle does not have the ability to be the prefect of a county."


    "Rebellious son, are you from the Yang family?"


    Yang Yong trembled with anger.


    He did not expect that his desire to be an official was shattered by Yang Xiu.


    It was Yang Xiu who stopped it.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Yang Xiu''s words, she nodded slightly, with a smile on her face. He said with a straight face: "you don''t have to take Yang Gong''s words from dezu seriously."


    Yang Yong''s eyebrows rose, and hope suddenly rose in his heart. Although there is Yang Xiu''s obstruction, the specific power of appointment is still in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Does Zhang Xiu want to appoint him?


    Yang Yong said, "what does general Zhang mean?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the argument of dezu is just the opinion of dezu. You don''t have to pay attention to it. As for the selection of the prefect of Hongnong County, the officials under my command have their own set of assessment criteria and a set of special personnel selection procedures. "


    "If Yang Gong wants to, he can go to Chang''an general''s house and offer himself."


    "There are officials responsible for the assessment."


    "As long as Yang Gong passed the examination and served as the prefect of Hongnong County, his name would be right. No one could say anything. Even dezu had no right to comment. As for now, although I''m a captain of Sili, I can''t interfere wantonly. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I believe in Yang Gong''s ability, so I hope Yang Gong will go to Chang''an for assessment."


    Brush!


    Yang Yong''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are tantamount to a disguised refusal. What is meant by Zhang Xiu''s inability to intervene in the appointment of officials? We should know that Zhang Xiu is the Lord, and it is a matter of one sentence to appoint and dismiss officials.


    Just like the appointment of Yang Xiu just now, with only one sentence from Zhang Xiu, Yang Xiu became the long history of the general''s mansion.


    Not when you get to him.


    It''s obviously a buck passing.


    Yang Yong looked a little angry and said, "General Zhang captured Huayin County, and the Yang family made a lot of contributions. Without our Yang family''s troops, general Zhang might not be able to defeat Sui Gu, at least he would not have captured Sui Gu so easily. It''s not too much for me to seek the position of the prefect of Hongnong county. "


    He sacrificed his last mace.


    This is his last card.


    The Yang family helped Zhang Xiu enter Huayin county and made a great contribution, which Zhang Xiu should repay.


    Give it a peach and give it a plum!


    Since ancient times.


    Hearing Yang Yong''s words, Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart. With Yang Yong''s present picture, Zhang Xiu can''t let Yang Yong take the post. Instead of refuting Yang Yong, he looked at Yang Xiu and motioned him to refute.


    Yang Xiu felt bitter in his heart.


    Every time, let him be a villain.


    But he also can''t refuse, and his uncle''s benefit makes him dizzy, in front of benefit, completely dizzy.


    It''s out of place.


    Even the words of asking for officials are directly said without any implication.


    Yang Xiushen took a deep breath and said again: "uncle, Zhang Fang asked the Yang family to send troops to help, but he didn''t offer any conditions. What''s more, our Yang family sent troops to attack Sui Gu, obeying nature and expelling tyrants. As for my uncle''s wish to be the prefect of Hongnong County, the Lord has already said that he only needs to go to Chang''an. You''re making trouble out of nothing. "


    Yang Yong said: "dezu, what you have done, I will tell you a lot of words, please decide."


    "I don''t mind," Yang said


    Zhang Xiu took the talk again and said with a smile: "although the official position of the prefect of a county needs to go through the procedure, it needs the approval of the officials. But the magistrate of a county could have been arranged. In all the counties except Huayin County, the Yang family was allowed to choose one of them, and the people of the Yang family served as the county magistrate. Although I can be appointed, if I fail to do anything, I will eventually be dismissed. "


    This is Zhang Xiu''s reward.


    Give the Yang family a place for county magistrate, not Huayin county magistrate.


    This is the way to check and balance.


    Zhang Xiu can benefit the Yang family, but it can''t make the Yang family alone.


    Yang Yong said with disdain: "my Yang family''s Zanying home is a county magistrate, and even the family can''t enter. Just a county magistrate, my Yang family disdains it, and so does my Yang Yong. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "that''s all. That''s all."


    As for Yang Yong''s ambition and talent, Zhang Xiu understood that he was not entangled in the affairs of Hongnong county. After drinking another cup of wine, he stroked his forehead with his hand and said, "Oh, I''m a little drunk. I will not be able to drink. Goodbye. "Yang Yong snorted and didn''t get up to see him off.


    But Yang Xiu stood up and sent Zhang Xiu to the door of the house. Before Zhang Xiu turned over, he looked at Yang Xiu and said, "dezu, the internal problems of the Yang family may be solved?"


    For Yang Yong, Zhang Xiu is not happy.


    If the Yang family wants to delay, Zhang Xiu doesn''t mind taking action against Yang Yong and changing to a obedient person.


    Yang Xiu looked confident and said, "my Lord, I will deal with everything this evening."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and left.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Yang Xiu turned to return to the hall.


    Yang Yong now sat down again. He sat right above him, still drinking wine, and said: "damn white eyed wolf, Zhang Xiu is a white eyed wolf. Cross the river and tear down the bridge. Dezu, who is also a white eyed wolf, helps outsiders bully me. A bunch of white eyed wolves, damn it


    As soon as Yang Xiu enters the hall, he hears Yang Yong''s words.


    His face darkened. As soon as he waved, a servant came in. Yang xiuphene asked. After retiring, he brought a basin of water, which was full of well water.


    After Yang Xiu took it over, he went to Yang Yong. At this time, Yang Yong had a few more cups of wine, and he was full of complaints. He felt particularly unhappy in his heart.


    "I''ll sober you up!"


    Yang Xiu took up the basin and spilled it without any hesitation.


    "Wow!"


    A basin of cold well water, all splashed on Yang Yong. In a flash, Yang Yong became a drowned chicken and shivered.


    Most of Yang Yong''s drinking was gone.


    People wake up.


    Yang Yong still had anger on his face and said, "dezu, what are you doing?"


    Yang xiudao: "I''ll wake up for my uncle. Don''t do crazy things all day. You''re old enough to dream all day, worrying people about whether your brain will go wrong. "


    His words are extremely sharp.


    Even if Yang Yong was his uncle, Yang Xiu was not polite and didn''t give Yang Yong any face.


    Yang Yong said, "I''m your uncle. You treat me like this."


    "Uncle?"


    Yang Xiu snorted and said in a deep voice: "you are my uncle, but in front of the family, you are a sinner. After three cups of horse urine, you don''t know what your family name is. "


    "As soon as I open my mouth, I want to be the prefect of Hongnong county. How can you be the prefect of Hongnong county. What''s more, you don''t want to think about it. The Yang family is a big family in Hongnong County, and its foundation is in Huayin county. "


    "Lord, how can you be the prefect of Hongnong county?"


    "Don''t say it''s you. It''s on her father. Zhang Xiu can''t let her father be the prefect of Hongnong county."


    Yang Xiu said, "you didn''t hear that just now. My Lord asked our people to act as county magistrate, but also ruled out Huayin county? Uncle, do you think that you can ignore Zhang Xiu if you have made minor contributions. You are afraid to forget, Zhang Xiu is also decisive, killing without blinking an eye


    Brush!


    Yang Yong''s face changed again and again.


    At this time, although he became a drowned man, he had come to his senses and recovered his calm. He had drunk wine before, and with the strength of wine, he told the wild hope in his heart.


    Unexpectedly, it almost led to a big crime.


    Yang Yong said with a smile, "dezu, you''re right. I was a little carried away just now. "


    Yang xiudao: "Uncle sober?"


    "Wake up! Wake up


    Yang Yong''s face was a little embarrassed. He was taught by his nephew. He had no face and nodded back and forth.


    Yang xiudao: "so, I can rest assured."


    Instead of staying in the hall, he turned to the back yard. He is already a long history of Zhang Xiu. Next, he has to follow Zhang Xiu to fight, so he has to pack up and leave.

 Chapter 367

    Zhang Xiu went back to the barracks. It was a little late. After reading the meeting book, he took an early rest.


    One night without words, the next morning.


    There is nothing wrong with Zhang Xiu, but Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao are too busy to touch the ground. After all, the three are busy dealing with military affairs, reorganizing the army and adjusting its structure.


    Zhang Xiu sat in the tent, looking at the map of Hongnong County, thinking about the subsequent dispatch of troops.


    It is not difficult to attack Hongnong county.


    After all, without the power of garrison, we will be invincible wherever we go.


    The most important thing is that Yuan Shao may send troops to kill him in the future. We should consider the war with Yuan Shao. Even Sui Gu fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands, and Zhang Yang might send troops.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the camp, Wang Yue''s voice rang out.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    The curtain of the barracks door was lifted and Wang Yue entered, reporting: "Lord, there is information from Chang''an."


    With that, Wang Yue handed over a letter.


    Zhang Xiu took it over, opened the letter and read it again. Her eyebrows rose and she was surprised.


    Here comes Kong Rong!


    Kong Rong went to Chang''an to see Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhang Xiu is not in Chang''an, Kong Rong leaves Chang''an and goes after Hongnong county. In the letter, there is no mention of the reason for Kong Ronglai, because Xu Shu inquired, but Kong Rong did not say. Kong Rong said that only when he saw Zhang Xiu would he be willing to tell the truth.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "I know. Go ahead."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue retreated, leaving Zhang Xiu alone in the camp.


    The letter was delivered, and Kong Rong had already set out. He estimated that it would not take long for Kong Rong to arrive in Huayin county. In Zhang Xiu''s heart, she ponders the purpose of Kong Rong.


    Earlier, Kong Rong worked in Qingzhou as the Prime Minister of Beihai Prefecture.


    It''s called Kong Beihai.


    Last year, Yuan Tan attacked Qingzhou and had a fierce battle with Kong Rong. After his defeat, Kong Rong fled to Yanzhou and was appointed by the imperial court as a general craftsman. Soon after that, he moved to Shaofu and became a Taizhong doctor.


    The first generation of the emperor attached great importance to Kong Rong.


    After all, Kong Rong is a descendant of Confucius and a famous scholar in the world.


    In fact, the relationship between Kong Rong and Cao Cao is not very harmonious, especially Kong Rong does not like Cao Cao''s dictatorship and criticizes it more. Under such a premise, Cao Cao would suppress Kong Rong even if he did not want to provoke him.


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t figure out the reason, so she didn''t care about it for the time being.


    In the afternoon, it was close to Shenshi.


    Wang Yue came to the camp again and reported: "Lord, Kong Rong has arrived at the west gate of Huayin county. His carriage arrived and did not continue to enter the city. Please welcome him at the gate of the city in person. "


    Zhang Xiu''s sword eyebrows wrinkled. She was surprised by Kong Rong''s practice and asked, "are you sure he wants me to meet him?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "why?"


    Wang Yue replied, "Kong Rong said that he was the envoy of the emperor and came at the emperor''s command. As a minister of the Great Han Dynasty, the Lord should meet him at the gate of the city to show his respect for the emperor. "


    Zhang Xiu laughs. Kong Rong''s self feeling is really good.


    Envoys of the emperor?


    What''s the use of the emperor''s envoys in these days.


    It''s a turbulent time now. The princes are competing for the best in the world. The emperor''s envoys have long lost their influence.


    Three years ago, the imperial court was in turmoil because of the disturbance caused by Li Xi and Guo Si. At that time, the imperial court wanted to win over the forces of all parties to protect the convoy, so it sent envoys to all parts of the country to recruit officials in order to win over foreign aid.


    At that time, the imperial court sent Ma RIYUAN, a great Confucian, as an envoy to Shouchun to recruit Yuan Shu and give him official posts and titles. At the same time, it asked Yuan Shu to send troops to rescue the emperor in trouble.


    However, after Yuan Shu got the benefit, he was not willing to send troops, and forced Ma RIYUAN to recruit his ministry as an official in the name of the emperor, but Ma RIYUAN refused.


    Under the indignant rule of Yuan Shu, he directly snatched the emperor Fu Jie of Ma RI Li and refused to return it.


    Ma RIYUAN was humiliated, asked for Fu Jie, and was ready to leave Shouchun. However, he was imprisoned by Yuan Shu and died of vomiting blood.


    We can see the status of the emperor''s envoys.


    In the same way, Zhang Xiu can ignore Kong Rong.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t like Kong Rong very much, especially when he was on the shelf. He told her, "don''t worry about him. If he wants to come, come. He doesn''t want to come. He can go wherever he wants. It''s none of our business


    Wang Yue worried and said, "Lord, that''s Kong Rong who represents the son of heaven!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "people respect me, I also respect people. Kong Rong wants to put on airs in front of me. That''s impossible. Don''t worry about him. I''ll see what mystery Kong Rong wants to make. "


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"


    To Zhang Xiu''s answer, Wang Yue agrees.


    When Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Wang Yue turned back and told the messenger not to take care of Kong Rong''s affairs.And the west gate of Huayin county.


    A carriage stopped here.


    In the carriage sat a middle-aged man in his early forties. Although he was middle-aged, he didn''t have the slightest weight. His cheeks were thin, his eyes were bright, and he had a scholarly temperament.


    He is Kong Rong.


    As an envoy of the emperor, Kong Rong attaches great importance to his identity and is even more proud of it.


    Kong Rong went to the court last year and learned something about Zhang Xiu and about Zhang Xiu''s defeat of Cao Cao. Later, Zhang Xiu defeated Li He and killed Guo Si. All the news came to the court, and Kong Rong knew it.


    No matter what Zhang Xiu is, in Kong Rong''s view, Zhang Xiu is a martial arts man.


    That''s all!


    Kong Rong, as the 20th grandson of Confucius, is a model of Qingliu and a loyal official in the court. Naturally, he looks down on Wufu.


    This is the nature of a scholar.


    After Kong Rong came to Chang''an at the emperor''s command, he didn''t tell them what he was doing. He was looking for Zhang Xiu, so he went straight to Huayin county.


    Along the way, the road is bumpy, hard to walk, rather hard.


    There was some anger in his heart.


    So when he arrived at the gate of Huayin County, Kong Rong didn''t take the initiative to enter. Instead, he explained his identity to the soldiers stationed at the gate and asked someone to inform Zhang xiulai to see him.


    He had been waiting in the carriage, but he didn''t see Zhang Xiu.


    A quarter of an hour!


    Two quarters of an hour!


    Half an hour later, Zhang Xiu still didn''t appear.


    At this time, Kong Rong frowned, especially angry. He lifted the curtain of the carriage door, looked at the driver, and said, "ask again, when will Zhang Xiu come?"


    "Yes


    The coachman heard the words and looked at the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city.


    The soldiers have no idea of the emperor''s envoys. They only know Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhang Xiu was paid to eat.


    In particular, when the soldiers saw that Kong Rong and the groom were very proud and looked down upon them, they didn''t like Kong Rong. Moreover, before the soldiers went to the barracks to report, Wang Yue said Zhang Xiu''s opinion was to let Kong Rong wait.


    With this premise, the soldiers did not pay attention to Kong Rong.


    When the soldier heard the groom''s question, he said directly, "what''s your hurry? Just wait. General Zhang is busy with business. When it''s over, he will come to meet you. "


    The coachman was Kong Rong''s follower. He was very dissatisfied when he heard the soldier''s reply. He immediately yelled, "do you know who is sitting in the carriage? It''s Lord Kong Rong. He is the envoy of the emperor and comes at the emperor''s command. You, don''t report it to me. "


    The soldier snorted: "no matter what kind of adult you are, no matter what kind of envoy you are. Even if the emperor comes to Huayin county and general Zhang is not finished, he will have to wait. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Kong Rong, sitting in the carriage, was furious when he heard the soldier''s words.


    He came straight out of the carriage, stood on the shaft, glared and yelled, "you are such a jerk. When I see Zhang Xiu, I will let him deal with you. "


    The soldier is a person who is not afraid of anything. He stubbles his neck and says boldly, "wait until you see General Zhang. Now, wait and talk nonsense. You can''t go to the city."


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face changed again.


    He did not expect that a little soldier in front of him was so rude.


    He is an important minister in the court.


    He''s a royal envoy!


    When he arrived in Huayin County, Zhang Xiu should welcome him ten miles away. However, she was despised by Zhang Xiu and humiliated by the soldiers. It was a great shame.


    Kong Rong''s body trembled slightly and said coldly, "you''re fine, you''re fine. When I see Zhang Xiu, I will certainly ask for justice. I''m the envoy of the son of heaven. I can''t be humiliated like this. "


    "Whatever you want!"


    The soldier replied, strangling his neck.

 Chapter 368

    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    Zhang Xiu is still reading and doesn''t care about Kong Rong. As time went by, as it was almost noon, Zhang Xiu was a little hungry and let people eat meat cakes to fill her stomach for the time being.


    Just after Zhang Xiu finished eating, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and Wang Yue entered, reporting: "Lord, Kong Rong has been waiting at the gate of the city, and has never entered the city. You see, it''s never been the case? "


    "No matter!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly: "Kong Rong wants to guard at the gate of the city, so he should. I''ll see how tough he is. Mencius said that heaven''s great responsibility lies with the people. First of all, we must work hard, work hard, and starve the body and skin. Now, let Kong Rong experience it. "


    Wang Yue said: "I''ll let people stare at my humble position. I''ll see what Kong Rong will do and report at any time."


    Zhang Xiu made a sound, and Wang Yue stepped back.


    For Zhang Xiu, Kong Rongyue is the end shelf, and Zhang Xiu is not happy.


    You''re going to have to do it!


    Wrong person, wrong place.


    At noon, Zhang Xiu had a little lunch and took an early lunch break. When he woke up from his afternoon nap and was just about to deal with the government affairs, Chen arrived and reported: "Lord, the cavalry has been reorganized. Today, the number of cavalry in Langya camp has expanded to 6000. Originally, it could be expanded to 7000, but it expanded suddenly. Fearing that it would affect the combat effectiveness, it was temporarily expanded to 6000. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "it''s best to fight steadily and steadily to improve the combat effectiveness."


    Zhang Xiu has always believed in the combat effectiveness of Langya camp.


    This army is very strong.


    Even in the face of multiple enemies, the soldiers of Langya camp dare to fight and fight.


    If we meet in a narrow road, we dare to fight.


    This is the soul of Langya camp.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue entered the camp again and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "it''s Kong Rong''s business again?"


    "No!"


    Wang Yue shook his head and said, "outside the barracks, there are two businessmen. One is Zhang Shiping, and the other is Su Shuang. They claim to be merchants selling war horses. They come here to see their Lord. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang were merchants of Zhongshan state in the north. They specialized in selling war horses. Generally speaking, they had a strong power around them.


    Zhang Xiu said, "invite them in!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue nodded and went to inform him immediately.


    Chen to see Zhang Xiu something, no longer stay, turned away. Soon, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang entered the camp. They are both strong men in their early forties, but they have been running around for many years, and their temples are full of wind and frost.


    Zhang Shiping is a little tall and Su Shuang is a little shorter. They salute each other.


    Zhang Xiu has an impression on them.


    In the romance, the two men appeared to support Liu Bei''s chariots, money and bintie, which gave Liu Bei considerable strength.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu asked, "you two are here. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Shiping stepped forward and said, "I''m from Jizhou. I have a thousand horses in my hand. I don''t know, general Zhang. Would you like to buy it? "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart.


    A thousand horses!


    It''s not a small number.


    If you put them in places like Jingzhou and Yangzhou where there are no war horses, a thousand war horses will be enough to sell at a sky high price.


    However, Zhang Xiu will not buy it.


    When he knew that Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang had come, he had a plan in his heart.


    Su Shuang said with a smile: "don''t worry, general Zhang. The horses we sell are definitely good horses. If general Zhang bought these horses, he would never lose money. In this group of horses, there are still some mares who can give birth. If general Zhang buys it, he will make a steady profit. What do you think? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "I believe in your horses."


    However, Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything about buying. As soon as the words changed, she said with a smile, "these two businessmen are from Jizhou. They''ve been to many places these years, haven''t they?"


    Zhang Shiping didn''t understand the meaning of Zhang Xiu, but he said truthfully: "what general Zhang said is true. In recent years, we have been to Liangzhou farther to the west, Qingzhou and Xuzhou to the East, Jingzhou and other places to the south. To travel south and north is really to cross thousands of mountains and rivers and see a lot of local conditions and customs. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "you two have been peddling horses for many years. You should be quite familiar with war horses."


    "Yes, very familiar!"


    Zhang Shiping nodded and answered.


    But he looked at Su Shuang, and they looked at each other with a look of doubt in their eyes.


    They have traveled south and North for many years, and have met many princes and people. Every time they do business, they go smoothly. Even if the other side doesn''t want to fight, it''s also a kind refusal.


    As it happens, Zhang xiugu talked about him. He didn''t talk about business at all. He kept beating around the bush.


    This made them confused.Zhang Xiu continued: "you''ve been traveling around for many years. You''ve been doing business everywhere, and you''ve bought a lot of property."


    Zhang Shiping shook his head and said, "General Zhang is joking. Nowadays, it''s not easy to live a stable life. Although we drive horses around and sell them, our business is not small. In fact, it costs a lot. In particular, sometimes a group of horses are captured, which is a huge loss. Now we are just barely living. "


    Su Shuang echoed: "General Zhang, there are some unknown hardships in his party. It''s not easy for us to lick blood on the edge of a knife. What''s more, there is a large family to support. "


    Zhang Xiu, with a look of approval, said, "the world is hard, indeed."


    "Today, both of them are experienced and experienced people. Such people, wherever they go, everyone likes them. In particular, it is not easy for the two of you to survive so long in business. "


    "Now, under the general''s command, special cavalry has been set up. There are more and more horses in the army. In fact, the war horses are still far from enough and need to be specially cultivated. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t know. Would you like to work under my command. I don''t dare to say that I can afford a general position. "


    Brush!


    Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang were particularly surprised.


    What they didn''t expect was that Zhang Xiu wanted to attract them. They come to sell horses to earn Zhang Xiu''s money. But they did not expect, Zhang Xiu lion big mouth, want to put them even people with a horse pot.


    They underestimated Zhang Xiu''s appetite.


    Two people look at each other, their eyes, in fact, also emerged a touch of hesitation.


    At least, the two are a little excited.


    After all, businessmen are the lowest. Even if they are big businessmen, even if they have a lot of money, they are naturally weak in front of officials.


    Being an official is what everyone pursues.


    Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang are no exception. They also want to achieve something.


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and continued: "as long as you two are willing, you can set up a separate organization, and you will be responsible for the relevant affairs of Ma Zheng."


    "Under my command, you are not only responsible for raising horses, but also for selling war horses."


    "There''s quite a lot to do."


    "You are not only proficient in war horses, but also familiar with the situation of war horses. All kinds of things are enough for you to make the best use of your talents. I think with your talent and ability, there is no lack of people to attract you. "


    "But if other people want to recruit you, it''s fishing out of a dried up river. They don''t really want to use you, they are greedy for your horses. As soon as you yield, you''ll be thrown aside, left idle, and eventually pushed out. "


    "But Ben will not."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in this general, talent is the most important thing. There are people and everything. As long as you are here, it is enough to train horses for me. It''s just the two of you that Ben will value, not the others. "


    Zhang Shiping''s expression is moving.


    As Zhang Xiu said, over the years, there are a lot of people who solicit them.


    But they are all greedy for war horses, not really soliciting them.


    Su Shuang is the same. After thinking about it, he also has some ideas. For a businessman, he can become an official and show his strong points, that is, fish leaping over the dragon''s gate.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang also know, is a very potential person.


    It''s wonderful to follow Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 369

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang. She looked sincere and said again, "of course, if you don''t want to, you don''t have to worry about what I''m going to do."


    "As the saying goes, business can''t be done. Benevolence and justice lie in it. Two people don''t want to work for me, but when they come, they are friends. Your 1000 war horses will have been bought. You should have made a friend. "


    "What do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time, it''s a good thing to meet two of you. After all, Ben will often be short of war horses, so he can get in touch with them. When he needs war horses in the future, he can also ask them for help. "


    After hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Zhang Shiping took a deep breath and said, "Zhang Shiping is willing to submit to the general and drive him."


    "Humble duty, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Shiping has a solemn expression. He is obviously determined to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping have the same idea. He no longer hesitates and says: "humble Su Shuang, meet the Lord."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words in a row, with a smile on her face. For Zhang Xiu, with Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, we can continuously cultivate the horses.


    Shanglinyuan, near Chang''an, has been desolate all these years, and few people live in it. After it is zoned out, it is enough to cultivate war horses.


    Zhang xiudao: "Zhang Shiping!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhang Shiping stood up and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will worship you as the general of the defeated army, who is specially responsible for raising horses. When the war is over, Ben will return to Chang''an. He will mark out the area where Shanglin garden used to be as a racecourse for you to raise horses. "


    "I''ll do it


    Zhang Shiping should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Su Shuang!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Su Shuang stood up and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will worship you as the general of the broken Qiang people and help Zhang Shiping raise horses. In addition, you are responsible for the sale of war horses. When you raise enough horses to meet our needs, we''ll sell them. "


    Su Shuang said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    After a pause, Su Shuang said, "Lord, I have a doubt about my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what doubts?"


    Su Shuang solemnly said, "war horses are scarce in the world, especially in Jingzhou and Jiangdong. If there are enough horses, their combat effectiveness will be improved. Is it not an enemy to sell war horses to these people? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said with ease: "it''s impossible to invest in the enemy. It can only enhance our strength."


    "The reason is very simple. Whether we sell it or not is in our hands, not whether the other vassals are in urgent need. For example, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao are now at war. We can sell them to both sides to enhance their fighting capacity. "


    "Because even if the fighting power of both sides is enhanced, what will be the advantage of fighting


    Zhang xiudao said: "selling war horses for no reason is to support the enemy, which is not advisable. This will be very clear. "


    When Su Shuang heard this, he suddenly realized, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Shiping then said, "Lord, we are driving horses here. There are a thousand horses outside the city."


    "I''m willing to give all the 1000 horses to the Lord."


    "In addition, we also selected a horse king, with black body, cloud like hooves, and unusual horse. Of the 1000 war horses, only this one can be called the king of horses. "


    Zhang Shiping said: "the black horse king has been led to the gate of the camp."


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When a soldier entered, Zhang Xiu said immediately, "go and take the black horse at the gate of the camp to the gate of the camp."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers must be ordered to lead the horses at once.


    Zhang Xiu takes Zhang Shiping, Su Shuang and Wang Yue out of the barracks. Soon, a strong black horse is led in and stands at the gate of the barracks.


    This black horse has bright eyes and is as shiny as black satin. The feet of the four hooves are pure white, its back long, waist short and straight, strong limbs, very explosive.


    Zhang Shiping said: "Lord, this black horse is as powerful as lightning. Today, no one can surrender. If the Lord wants to control the horse, please arrange people in advance to subdue the horse so as to have an accident. "


    "No harm!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of war.


    It''s just a horse. He can''t believe it. If even a horse can''t be subdued, how can we fight in the world. Zhang Xiu''s face, with a confident look, went directly to the black horse.


    Without hesitation, he raised his hand and fell on the black horse''s back, reaching out to touch the black horse''s skin.


    Start cold, like touching silk.


    Zhang Xiu caresses, the black horse does not have any action, on the contrary is a pair of enjoyment appearance.Seeing this, Zhang Shiping widened his eyes.


    So is Su Shuang.


    Since the black horse back, can only lead, can''t ride, can''t touch. Once someone wants to ride a horse or touch it, it is bound to be resisted by the black horse, and even have to kick people.


    But in front of Zhang Xiu, it''s different. The black horse is obedient and doesn''t move. It looks very enjoyable, which is beyond Zhang Shiping''s and Su Shuang''s expectation.


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink and jumped up. He turned over and sat on the horse.


    "Herod!"


    The black horse kept neighing and his voice was loud. Vigorous four hooves, immediately throw away running. The speed of the black horse is very fast. Riding on the horse, the wind is roaring, as fast as lightning.


    Zhang Xiu firmly holds the reins of the horse and constantly drives the horse to the road. When he drives the black horse, he can feel the black horse''s body shaking from time to time, intending to throw him down.


    This black horse is not used to being ridden and intends to struggle.


    But Zhang Xiu did not move.


    He stood firmly on the horse''s back and kept shaking the reins. The speed of the black horse in the crotch was faster than before. In the end, I only saw a black figure running through the camp, which was extremely fast.


    "Herod!"


    The black horse kept neighing.


    At the beginning, the frequency of black horse shaking body is very frequent, gradually, but calm down, let Zhang Xiu sit on the horse''s back.


    The horse''s back was steady.


    The black horse saw that Zhang Xiu couldn''t get rid of him, so he no longer resisted and let him ride.


    After a ride in her saddle, Zhang Xiu went back to the big tent of the Chinese army. He got off the horse and patted it on the back. At that moment, the black horse gave two loud snorts and looked like he agreed.


    This black horse is very psychic.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "fast as lightning, enough to chase the wind. After that, your name will be Zhuifeng. "


    "Herod


    Chase the wind loud hissing, in response to Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Zhang Shiping hugged his fist and said, "Congratulations, Lord. I''m glad to catch the wind."


    Su Shuang was very surprised, but also quickly congratulated. No matter Zhang Shiping or Su Shuang, it''s a surprise that Zhang Xiu controls the pursuit of the wind so easily.


    Wang Yue also congratulated Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is happy in the heart and tells the soldiers to take Zhuifeng down and feed him well.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier came.


    The soldier came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "general, Kong has integrated into the city. He was impatient waiting at the gate of the city, and finally he came into the city and came in the direction of the camp. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "come on, come on."


    Zhang Shiping and Zhang Shiping have no business. The thousand horses they brought are still outside the city. At present, we have to go outside the city to bring the horses in and give them to Zhang Xiu''s army to take over.

 Chapter 370

    Zhang Xiu went straight back to the camp and didn''t take care of Kong Rong who was about to arrive. After a short time, Kong Rong''s carriage arrived at the gate of the camp. At this time, Kong Rong''s face was blue, his lips were pursed, his face was cold, and his eyes were shining with anger.


    He was already full of anger.


    He is the envoy of the emperor, and Zhang Xiu is the commander of Sili appointed by the emperor. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t respect him, it means he doesn''t respect the emperor.


    It''s the same.


    Especially after noon, Kong Rong ate at will in the morning, but didn''t eat at noon. He was so hungry that his chest was close to his back.


    He hated Zhang Xiu.


    When he arrived at the gate of the camp, Kong Rong came down from the carriage. He went straight to the gate of the camp and looked at the soldiers stationed at the gate. He held his head high and said: "go to inform Zhang Xiu that our officer is coming. Let him come out to meet him."


    The soldiers had been ordered long ago. They didn''t have to take Kong Rong''s words to heart. Seeing Kong Rong, the soldiers were not afraid. They said faintly, "now that you''re here, you can go to the big account of the Chinese army. If not, wait. "


    "I''ll wait here!"


    Kong Rong raised his head and said angrily, "if Zhang Xiu doesn''t come to meet him, I won''t go in."


    The coachman on one side, the corner of his mouth smoked.


    Together with Kong Rong, he has experienced the events at the gate of the city and thinks that Zhang Xiu is a very powerful person. When he arrives at the gate of the camp, Kong Rong continues to speak harshly. He thinks it''s not right. This is his own guilt.


    At that time, it will be myself who will suffer.


    but the husband didn''t speak. He was only a Kong Rong''s retinue. Everything had to listen to Kong Rong''s and Kong Rong has the final say.


    When the soldiers heard Kong Rong''s words, they stood at the door without saying a word.


    Kong Rong said, "don''t you report it yet?"


    "No!"


    The soldier answered directly, glanced at Kong Rong, and didn''t pay attention to him at all.


    "You are presumptuous


    Kong Rong trembled with anger.


    When he was at the gate of the city, a soldier guarding the gate didn''t pay attention to him. Now at the gate of Zhang Xiu''s barracks, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are still rebellious.


    It''s too much deception.


    In Kong Rong''s view, this is the result of the superior and the inferior. Zhang Xiu is like this, but ordinary soldiers are like this. Kong Rong couldn''t help it any more. His hand fell on the sword at his waist, and he only heard a clang sound.


    In a flash, the sword came out of its sheath and pointed to the soldier standing guard at the door.


    Kong Rong looked down and said coldly: "go to inform Zhang Xiu immediately and let him come to the gate of the camp to meet my official. Otherwise, I will kill you. If you are disrespectful to the emperor''s envoy and kill you, you will die in vain. "


    On hearing Kong Rong''s words, the soldier replied again, "no


    Kong Rong stepped forward. His sword was less than one foot away from the soldiers. Just a foot further forward is enough to threaten the lives of soldiers.


    Kong Rong asked, "are you sure you don''t want to go?"


    "No!"


    The soldier gave a crisp answer.


    "To die!"


    Kong Rong was so angry that he stabbed forward with one sword. At the moment of Kong Rong''s sword, the soldier clenched his spear with both hands and blocked the sword easily.


    The soldier''s face flashed a fierce color. At the moment when he swung the edge of Kongfeng''s sword, the spear swung up. The end of the spear aimed at Kongfeng''s shoulder and thrust it forward.


    "Bang!"


    The end of the spear did not open, such as blunt impact on Kong Rong''s shoulder.


    "Ah


    Kong Rong snorted. He stepped back as if struck by lightning. He stepped back three steps in succession, but he still couldn''t hold his body. With a plop, he fell to the ground.


    Seeing this, Kong Rong''s coachman immediately pulled out his sword and cut it off to the neck of the soldier.


    The soldier''s spear is retracted and quickly blocked.


    "Dang!"


    The blade cuts on the spear, and the spear is not affected at all. As soon as the soldier''s spirit changed, he was murderous. He held the spear tightly and stabbed forward.


    Soldiers in the army practice the art of killing people.


    There will be no hands left.


    Spear sharp, continuous attack, move straight to take the key of the groom. In particular, soldiers fight with their lives in every move, even with injuries. This kind of crazy way of playing makes the coachman hard up.


    A moment later, the groom retreated.


    Seeing this, the soldier didn''t pursue him. He went back to the gate of the camp, stood up with a spear again, and said with disdain, "if you want to fight in the army, you have to weigh your skills."


    The groom''s face was hot.


    He is Kong Rong''s coachman, and also Kong Rong''s retinue guard. However, in the face of an ordinary soldier in the army, he was defeated. It''s a shame.


    The coachman did not dare to attack again. He helped Kong Rong with caution in his eyes.


    Kong Rong stood up and his left shoulder was burning with pain, as if his bones were broken. He is a scholar. Although he is proficient in riding and shooting, his skill has been abandoned for so many years.


    He was stabbed in the shoulder by a soldier and showed his teeth in pain.Kong Rong gritted his teeth and said, "if you offend angels, you deserve to die. When I see Zhang Xiu, I''ll ask him for a crime. "


    "Whatever you want!"


    The soldier standing at the door had a look of disdain on his face.


    The soldiers looked down on Kong Rong.


    There is no use in everything. They are scholars who only know how to play a temper. They are not good at home or at home.


    The groom said in a low voice: "my Lord, it seems that Zhang Xiu won''t come out. If we want to pass the edict, we can just go in by ourselves. If you drag on, you will lose face. These are mud legs. We don''t need to see them in the same light. "


    Kong Rong looked at the soldiers with a cold face. Kong Rong has lived for decades and has never seen such an arrogant soldier. He wants to clean up the arrogant soldier immediately.


    However, there is nothing we can do.


    Kong Rong finally gritted his teeth and said, "let''s go, let''s go into the camp."


    Kong Rong picked up the long sword that had just fallen on the ground, returned it to its sheath, and began to enter.


    "Wait!"


    At this time, the spear in the soldier''s hand fell and stopped Kong Rong and the groom.


    Kong Rong said, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier replied, "people can go in, but the weapons they carry are not allowed to be brought into the barracks."


    "You..."


    Kong Rong''s face turned red and his ears swelled.


    At the thought of meeting Zhang Xiu, Kong Rong finally gritted his teeth and endured the humiliation of the soldiers in front of him. He took the sword from his waist and asked the groom to hand over the sword, so he took the groom in.


    The two men entered the army, walked not far, and saw the trained soldiers.


    Military training is extremely strict.


    Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao all attach great importance to the training of their troops.


    One by one, the soldiers were trained.


    Kong Rong came to the big account of the Chinese army and was able to enter the big account of the Chinese army only after he was informed. Kong Rong''s eyes fell on the theme and was sitting cross legged to study Zhang Xiu on the map of Hongnong county.


    When Kong Rong saw Zhang Xiu, he was not angry. He had despised the origin of Zhang Xiu''s Wufu, and now he was angry to see that Zhang Xiu was so young and rude.


    Kong Rong held his head high and his hands on his back. He scolded: "Zhang Xiu, I came at the command of the emperor, holding the emperor''s talisman. When I arrived in Huayin County, why didn''t you meet me in person?"


    Zhang Xiu folded her legs, reached out to beat her twice, and said with a smile: "you see, my legs are weak and I can''t go out to meet you. Please forgive me. What''s more, Master Kong came at the command of the son of heaven. Why did he have to meet him at the gate of the city. You see now, you''ve come by yourself, and you''ve seen me. Now, isn''t that good? "


    When Kong Rong heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was even more angry and said, "Zhang Xiu, is there any emperor in your eyes?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Master Kong has the emperor in his eyes. Why didn''t I notice that. My eyesight is pretty good. I can see clearly what''s in the eyes of Master Kong. Master Kong''s eyes are black and shining, and his two eyes are rolling. I don''t see the emperor. "


    Kong Rong said, "you''re making trouble!"


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, way: "I where is to stir up recklessly, I just tell Kong Adult a truth.". You have to be respected if you respect people. "


    Kong Rong''s face turned black.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "don''t put on airs here. Otherwise, when you see the soldiers at the gate of the barracks, you will know their attitude towards you. That will be Ben''s attitude then. "

 Chapter 371

    Zhang Xiu knows what happened in front of the barracks. He didn''t want to punish the soldiers. On the contrary, he liked the courage and blood of the soldiers. The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are not cowards. They should have their own blood.


    That''s what his soldiers should have.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t mention the soldiers, but Kong Rong is furious when it comes to the soldiers'' obstruction.


    For the time being, Kong Rong didn''t take charge of Zhang Xiu''s attitude and said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, you must deal with the soldiers at the gate of the camp. Otherwise, when I return to the court, I will report to the emperor truthfully. Once the emperor has committed a crime, you can''t afford it. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles. She doesn''t take Kong Rong''s threat to heart. She orders, "come on, call out the soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp. I will have something to ask."


    "Here it is


    Soldiers'' voices came from the gate of the camp.


    Kong Rong saw that Zhang Xiu wanted to call for soldiers. He was surprised.


    Just a moment ago, Zhang Xiu kept saying that she wanted him to correct his attitude. Now she arranged for someone to call soldiers.


    Did Zhang Xiu change her mind.


    In other words, just now his threat has shocked Zhang Xiu.


    Yes!


    It must be.


    Kong Rong''s heart, that is in the name of the son of heaven, shocked to Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu could not be so obedient. For a moment, Kong Rong''s head rose again, and he stood on his side with his hands on his back.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Kong Rong''s expression and sneers at her heart.


    Kong Rong is also a blind man.


    No wonder in history, he died by Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao had a deep hatred, but somehow Zhang Xiu knew Cao Cao and Cao Cao was determined to kill him. However, Zhang Xiu was also polite to the virtuous corporal and attached great importance to talents. In particular, if Kong Rong is on Cao Cao''s side, or even if he is not on Cao Cao''s side, he will not be killed as long as he does not provoke Cao Cao.


    Because Kong Rong repeatedly and repeatedly aimed at Cao Cao, it led to disaster.


    This is Kong Rong''s fault.


    In other words, Kong Rong has the position of Kong Rong and Cao Cao has the position of Cao Cao.


    Both sides insist.


    Soon after, the soldiers who had been fighting against Kong Rong entered. When the soldiers saw Zhang Xiu, they were awed and knelt down on the ground like a jade pillar. They said, "the villain Xia Ping''an, meet the general."


    The soldier''s name is Xia Ping''an.


    He was a soldier in the fierce tiger army. He was very hot, but he also dared to fight and kill.


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "Yes


    Xia Ping''an stands up and glances at Kong Rong. His eyes still show disdain.


    Zhang Xiu tone is very calm, not impatient way: "this will hear, when you are at the gate of the camp, to the emperor''s envoy Kong Rong started, will it overturn on the ground, can this matter?"


    "Yes


    Xia Ping''an said directly: "Kong Rong is fighting against villain with his sword. He takes the lead, so villain counterattacks."


    Kong Rong is waiting for Zhang Xiu. He didn''t say anything about the gate of the camp, but Zhang Xiu said it accurately. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is quite clear about the gate of the camp.


    In Kong Rong''s expectation, Zhang Xiu said, "well played, I didn''t lose my face."


    "Thank you, general."


    Xia Ping''an heard Zhang Xiu''s words and grinned. The rough and honest face was full of pride. He looked at Zhang Xiu with admiration.


    He is worthy of being a general.


    But Zhang Xiu''s words came to Kong Rong''s ears. Kong Rong widened his eyes, raised his eyebrows, and said angrily, "Zhang Xiu, let you bring Xia Ping''an, let you deal with him, not let you praise him for shielding him. You don''t think so. "


    But Zhang Xiu ignored Kong Rong and said, "peace in summer, you are a man of steadiness. Today, I will order you to be the commander of the army. I will give you a reward of 1000 yuan. When you go down, go straight to Ganning and say that it will be arranged. "


    "Here it is


    Xia Ping''an bowed down and left happily.


    He didn''t expect that he just did things according to Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards Kong Rong, and he got a promotion.


    It was a surprise.


    After Xia Ping''an turned and left, Zhang Xiu''s eyes returned to Kong Rong again and said, "Kong Rong, put away your mind that your eyes are higher than the top. Here in Ben will, Ben will be the rule. You want to carry a high shelf, there is no way. I''m going to reward you for taking care of your soldiers. What can you do for me? "


    Kong Rong clenched his knuckles.


    Endless anger breeds.


    Kong Rong''s face was full of rage. Zhang Xiu didn''t even think of him. Originally, he thought that Zhang Xiu wanted to punish the soldiers, but he didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was not a punishment, but a reward for the soldiers.


    It''s like hitting him in the face.


    Kong Rong''s chest was full of ups and downs, and his face was full of anger. He threatened: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, I''m the envoy of the emperor. If you wantonly humiliate me, I''m humiliating the emperor. I will report to the emperor what you have done. ""Whatever you want."


    Zhang Xiu shrugged and said, "you can do whatever you want. I won''t stop you. Anyway, I don''t respect the emperor. In your eyes, I''m just like Cao Cao. I''m a traitor. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a fierce color and said: "anyway, I don''t respect the emperor, so I''ll add another crime."


    Voice down, Zhang Xiu stood up, a scurrying step to the front of Kong Rong body.


    He turned sideways, raised his leg and kicked out.


    "Bang!"


    Zhang Xiu kicks her foot on Kong Rong''s chest. Under the impact of peiran''s strength, in an instant, Kong Rong hums, his body flies upside down and falls to the ground with a bang.


    "Ah


    Kong Rong fell into a mess, and his whole body seemed to fall apart. At this moment, Kong Rong felt pain in his buttocks and bones, especially in his chest, where he just got a foot.


    "You, you..."


    Kong Rong''s eyes widened and he was very angry.


    Zhang Xiu even hit him.


    He is the envoy of the emperor.


    The coachman''s eyes were wide, and his face was frightened. He didn''t notice the moment of Zhang Xiu''s hand just now. It''s really that Zhang Xiu''s speed is too fast. He has no way to stop her.


    The coachman came to Kong Rong and helped him up with care.


    Zhang Xiu clapped her hands, went back to the seat and continued: "Kong Rong, I''ve beaten you now, and I''m disrespectful to the emperor. You also don''t talk, directly leave Huayin County, straight back to Xu du to complain. I''d like to see. What can the emperor do for me? "


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid of Liu Xie.


    It is difficult for a man who has no military power but relies on the righteousness of the emperor and a group of loyal ministers to get rid of Cao Cao. The orders of the imperial court are in the hands of Cao Cao. Cao Cao has the final say in appointing and removing the ministers of the court in the


    .


    Now Cao Cao is busy exterminating Yuan Shu.


    Cao Cao is eager to have a good relationship with Zhang Xiu. How can he provoke Zhang Xiu.


    When Kong Rong heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was shocked. He suddenly remembered that he had come to find Zhang Xiu. Although he was ordered by the emperor, he also wanted Zhang Xiu''s cooperation.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t cooperate, it''s not easy to do.


    Kong Rong originally wanted to subdue Zhang Xiu and make her cooperate obediently. But Zhang Xiu''s attitude is surprisingly tough. If Kong Rong confronts Zhang Xiu, he can''t get things done.


    Kong Rong''s mind turns.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu once more, took a deep breath, and solemnly said: "Zhang Xiu, I''m the emperor''s envoy, and I''ll come to Huayin county with the emperor''s talisman. You should have welcomed it in person. If you don''t welcome me, that''s fine. The previous thing, since it has happened, is nothing. I came here on the order of the emperor. "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed.


    This is Kong Rong!


    Previously, he was so tough, but now for the sake of Liu Xie, he began to use soft means again.


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t worry about my soldiers blocking you?"


    Kong Rong''s face turned black, but he was still patient and replied, "never mind!"


    Zhang Xiu also said: "don''t worry about this will hit you."


    "Never mind!"


    Kong Rong took a puff from the corner of his mouth and answered again.


    Zhang Xiu patted her thigh and said with a smile, "that''s the right attitude. Tell me, why did you come to Huayin county to see me? "


    The so-called "nothing goes without going to the temple of three treasures".


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t think it''s a good thing for Kong Rong to come to him. He is sure to have something to ask for. At least it''s not a good thing for Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 372

    Kong Rong''s heart is collapsing.


    Zhang Xiu is too difficult to deal with, especially tricky, domineering, and doesn''t pay attention to the emperor.


    Under this premise, Kong Rong''s heart has made up his mind. When he returns to Xudu, he must read a book about Zhang Xiu, and let the imperial court know that Zhang Xiu is arrogant and domineering.


    However, now, he knows that Zhang Xiu''s soft attitude is not hard. He can only restrain his mind and prevent him from having another conflict with Zhang Xiu, so as to avoid being detrimental to the completion of the emperor''s heavy trust.


    Kong Rong took a deep breath and said, "I''m here on the order of the emperor to ask general Zhang to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. Xuan paper is good for the whole world, people and scholars. The emperor was glad to hear of it. But because the promotion of rice paper was not enough, I sent my official as an envoy to Huayin county to ask general Zhang to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was silent for a moment and then burst out laughing.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    The imperial court even wanted the manufacturing technology of rice paper, or the emperor Liu Xie wanted the manufacturing technology of rice paper, and then used it for profit. Zhang Xiu does not believe what Liu Xie said, what promotion efforts are not enough, that is bullshit.


    What Liu Xie planned was actually the production technology of rice paper.


    Xuan paper is needed by countless people.


    This is a cornucopia, which can earn countless money for Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu does not worry about money.


    Liu Xie was trapped in the palace. On the one hand, he had no military power; on the other hand, he was short of money. Even if Liu Xie had an idea, he didn''t have enough money to recruit troops.


    If we can''t recruit soldiers, how can we build our own forces?


    Relying on the support of a small number of loyal ministers is a drop in the bucket after all, so Liu Xie''s idea went to Xuan paper.


    Kong Rong heard Zhang Xiu''s laughter, his face unchanged, and solemnly said: "General Zhang, this matter is related to the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty. General Zhang is a minister of the Han Dynasty, so please cooperate with him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what does the rise and fall of the Great Han have to do with me. Besides, how do you want me to cooperate? "


    Kong Rong calm expression, very indifferent way: "hand over the production process of rice paper."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Kong Rong, is it because the emperor is too young to fall asleep, or is it because your brain has been kicked by a donkey. The emperor is short of Xuan paper, so I can give it free of charge. "


    "It''s just that if you want to reach out to Guanzhong and take my interests, don''t blame me for cutting my hands."


    "Of course, Cao Cao must know what the emperor thought. He would like you to bring back the production technology of rice paper. At that time, he can easily control the production of rice paper. "


    "Unfortunately, it''s impossible."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, her eyes were cold, and said, "go back where you come from."


    Kong Rong said eagerly, "Zhang Xiu, are you still not the Minister of the Great Han?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu replied.


    Kong Rong looked excited and said: "since you are a minister of Han Dynasty, you should share your worries for the emperor. Take out the emperor''s action and cooperate with your Xuan paper making process. It''s up to us whether we can revive the Great Han. "


    Zhang Xiu disdains a way: "big Han whether again prosperous, have what relation with me Zhang Xiu?"


    Kong Rong said: "you are Zhang Xiu, and you are rebellious."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m rebellious. Like Yuan Shu, I directly revolt. Do I stand on my own as king?"


    "No!"


    "During Zhang Xiu''s military campaign, he defeated Huang Jin, killed Xiongnu, and killed Li Xi and Guo Si. The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command have ravaged the common people and slaughtered the officials. Do they not respect the great men? "


    "No!"


    "I, Zhang Xiu, do my duty. I don''t steal, I don''t rob, I do things steadfastly."


    "Why am I so rebellious?"


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp words continued: "at the beginning, when my uncle and I entered Nanyang County, we couldn''t get enough to eat, we couldn''t get enough clothes, and we were in trouble. Where was the emperor?"


    "At the beginning, I haven''t been based in Nanyang yet. The yellow scarf thief came to kill me. My strength is weak and I can''t catch it."


    "Where is the emperor?"


    "When Ma Teng and Han Sui invaded Guanzhong, we were short of troops and in great danger."


    "Where is the emperor?"


    "The son of heaven''s love for me, Zhang Xiu, has no love for water or food. I, Zhang Xiu, am loyal to the Great Han Dynasty, and I have done my best to rectify the chaos. I have a long way to go, and it''s not easy for me to have today''s foundation. "


    Zhang Xiu tossed the ground and said: "now that we have some foundation, the emperor can''t sit still and arrange for you to harvest. Does the emperor think that Zhang Xiu is a bully? Kong Rong, you are a descendant of Confucius. You should be conscientious. You are awe inspiring all day, but your heart is very dark. It''s not good. At least I''m not ashamed of people like you. "


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, in his opinion, are simply deviant.


    As a minister, you should serve the emperor.As a minister, you should offer for the emperor.


    Zhang Xiu refused.


    Kong Rong was ready to refute immediately, but before he spoke, Zhang Xiu said again: "I, Zhang Xiu, stand up in the world, worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of ancestors, worthy of the people. If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu, Nanyang County and Guanzhong, I don''t know how many people have become a pile of dead bones. I don''t know how many people have lost their families. "


    Kong Rong''s cheek twitched.


    He thought in his heart, you Zhang Xiu is powerful, but you Zhang Xiu is a traitor like Cao Cao.


    It''s the same as Cao Cao.


    They''re all traitors!


    Kong Rong took a deep breath and said: "General Zhang, what we are talking about now is not a matter worthy of anything, but a matter in which the emperor is in trouble. At this time, I need your help. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I can help, but you can''t. let me help myself. I came to help when I had more than I could do


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Shao is going to attack Guanzhong, and vice governor Zhang Yang of Hanoi is going to attack Guanzhong. I''m in great danger. How about Confucius, on behalf of the emperor, denounce Yuan Shao and Zhang Yang and let them strike immediately?"


    Kong Rong was dumb.


    How can he make Yuan Shao strike? He was expelled by Yuan Tan, Yuan Shao''s son.


    He did not dare to provoke Yuan Shao.


    In Kong Rong''s view, Yuan Shao was a man who had no eyes for the emperor and intended to stand on his own. However, compared with Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao still had to be more restrained. He did not build a country and become emperor like Yuan Shu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you see, aren''t you loyal to the emperor? Then go to Yecheng and persuade Yuan Shao to mediate the current situation for me. As long as Yuan Shao doesn''t attack me, how about the manufacturing process of rice paper I hand over? "


    Kong Rong smiles awkwardly.


    He was so unhappy that he did not dare to agree directly.


    Because at the beginning of the war with Yuan Tan, if he had not escaped quickly, he would have been killed by Yuan Tan.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "in fact, you Kong Rong are not a good thing."


    "Since you are loyal to the emperor, you should mediate Yuan Shao''s attack on Guanzhong and obtain the manufacturing technology of rice paper for the emperor. But you are afraid of death, unwilling to go and unfaithful to the emperor. "


    "You are a descendant of Confucius. Confucius taught us to understand etiquette, righteousness, honesty and shame. In fact, for your own interests, you totally ignore the family precepts of your ancestors and are unfilial to them."


    "You, Kong Rong, are unfaithful and unfilial."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are such an unfaithful and unfilial person. How can you have any face? You are talking in front of me, Zhang Xiu. You have no confidence. Let me sacrifice myself. "


    Kong Rong was furious when he heard this.


    He was scolded by Zhang Xiu and could bear it. He didn''t want to argue with Zhang Xiu, but his reputation was involved. Kong Rong couldn''t bear it.


    Kong Rong believed that he was loyal to the emperor and worthy of his ancestors.


    But Zhang Xiu insulted him.


    This is the last thing Kong Rong wants to see. Originally, when he met Zhang Xiu today, he was very angry, and his breath was gloomy. Now by Zhang Xiu drink scold some time, that melancholy gas is even worse. His chest, constantly ups and downs, suddenly only feel a sweet throat, can no longer suppress the surge of blood.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, from the mouth of the hole melt out.


    Bloodstains were scattered in the tent.

 Chapter 373

    Kick! Kick!


    Kong Rong''s face turned pale as he retreated. He covered his heart and felt the pain in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you humiliate me so much, I will never stop. If you don''t share your worries for the emperor, it''s just more magnificent and bloody. If you do, I will report to the emperor truthfully. "


    In order to ask for the production technology of Xuan paper, Kong Rong has decided to have a good talk with Zhang Xiu. He would rather compromise than bring back the manufacturing technology of rice paper to the emperor.


    But he couldn''t bear it.


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "no matter, how do you report it? It''s your business. I don''t mind what you want to do. Now that you are ready to report to the emperor, go back to Xudu as soon as possible. Don''t stay here. If Yuan Shao''s army kills you, I can''t bear the responsibility. "


    "You, you..."


    Kong Rong was very angry.


    Zhang Xiu is too bullying. He came all the way from mountains and rivers. He didn''t even eat lunch. He was humiliated by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s speech was prickly and said: "why, is it that Master Kong stuttered and didn''t know how to speak. Or, can''t you even talk? "


    He didn''t like Kong Rong.


    A man of clean air is a mere talk.


    No ability.


    Kong Rong took a deep breath, and finally said: "Zhang Xiu, the emperor is in trouble, do you really ignore it?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you Kong Rong in one day, I will never cooperate."


    "Goodbye!"


    Seeing this, Kong Rong didn''t stay any longer. He turned around and went out. Obviously, Zhang Xiu is obviously not willing to cooperate, just say what he is in one day, it will never cooperate.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "walk slowly don''t send!"


    Kong Rong takes the groom to leave, and Zhang Xiu sneers twice. Now it''s not easy for him to have the present situation. The reason why Zhang Xiu can continuously expand her strength is that she has enough money.


    With money, he doesn''t worry about logistics.


    If it wasn''t for the monopoly of Xuan paper and the sufficient financial resources provided by Xuan paper, it would be impossible for Zhang Xiu to expand to the present level in more than a year.


    It''s not polite to say that Xuan paper is the lifeblood of Zhang Xiu.


    It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to give her life to others. Not to mention Kong Ronglai, even if it is the son of heaven, it is impossible. Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to think about what happened when Kong Rong returned to Xudu and saw the emperor.


    Kong Rong is sure to complain.


    Is it Kong Rong who doesn''t complain?


    What''s more, Kong Rong''s mission to Guanzhong failed and he didn''t shirk his responsibility. How can he convince the emperor and satisfy Qingliu? So it can be expected that after Kong Rong returned to Xudu, he was slandered, and Zhang Xiu, like Cao Cao, was a domineering traitor.


    Everyone must shout and fight.


    However, Zhang Xiu will not be beaten passively. Knowing that such a situation has happened, Zhang Xiu must make a response.


    Zhang Xiu thinks a little, has a consideration in her heart, and says: "come


    As the voice dropped, a soldier came in quickly.


    Zhang xiudao: "inform Wang Yinyi."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to give orders and go to inform them quickly. After a short time, Wang Yue entered the camp and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "in Xudu, are there any royal guards infiltrating in?"


    "Yes!"


    Wang Yue nodded his head and said, "it''s just that most of us who are lurking in Xudu are Rangers because of the short time. We haven''t got the rest of them. Their strength is still limited for the time being. "


    "Enough!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed cold light and said: "Kong Rong came to see me and asked me to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. I was severely humiliated."


    "When he comes back to Xudu, he must make a rumor."


    "It''s going to smear me."


    "Now send someone to send a letter to the royal guards of Xudu to let them know the time. When Kong Rong is about to return to Xudu, ask them to release a message, saying that when Kong Rong arrives in Huayin County, he will put on airs and look domineering."


    "In short, we should highlight Kong Rong''s arrogance."


    "You know Kong Rong''s temperament. Just let the people of the royal guards get the news out. "


    "The rest, don''t say much."


    Zhang Xiu gives the arrangement. He knows that Kong Rong will be in trouble, so he prefers to strike first.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu''s counterattack is also very simple. He doesn''t give too much description, just spread Kong Rong''s domineering attitude, that''s enough. When it comes to the interests of the emperor, if the emperor has no interests and fails to earn enough benefits, he will certainly analyze the reasons.


    If Kong Lingzi is accused, Zhang Shengrong will not be accused. The reason is very simple, they also ask Zhang Xiu.


    Kong Rong is the scapegoat.


    This time, we failed to find out the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper. The people of the emperor''s family will not give up and will send someone to come again.This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Wang Yue is also an old man. After hearing Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, he soon understood it. With a smile on his face, he said, "my Lord is wise. Let''s spread some news. Even if Kong Rong criticizes my Lord, it''s just a scratch."


    "That''s what it is


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered, looking forward in her eyes.


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu was no longer in charge of Kong Rong''s affairs. She was busy preparing for the next war, carefully deducing the situation and preparing for the subsequent war.


    Time flies, two days of rest time, Zhang Xiu mobilized the army to attack.


    Today, Huang Zhong''s forces have expanded to 20000. Gan Ning''s troops also expanded to 20000.


    Beside Zhang Xiu, a part of the regular army was left behind, staying in Huayin county.


    Huang Zhong led 20000 Feixiong troops to attack from the east of Huayin County, straight to Hu County, and to Hongnong County, the seat of Hongnong county. Ganning led 20000 fierce tiger troops to Lushi County along the southeast of Huayin County, and took the southeast of Hongnong county.


    The two armies are advancing continuously.


    Hongnong County, the first section of simmer control. But Duan''s troops were mainly concentrated in Huayin county. After Sui Gu and Yan Liang entered Hongnong County, their forces dispersed at first, but in the end, they also gathered in Huayin county.


    Zhang Xiu defeated Sui Gu and Yan Liang, and destroyed Yan Liang''s army. Now the rest of Hongnong county''s troops are not strong. They are garrisoned by some counties.


    The army has passed by, and is invincible.


    There was no army that could resist Huang Zhong and Gan Ning at all, and the garrison of each county town came back.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised to learn the news from the front line. After the destruction of Yan Liang and Sui Gu, the next war was the result of crushing. It was impossible to have an army that could resist.


    Hongnong county is just around the corner.

 Chapter 374

    Time flies. In a flash, October comes.


    In October, the weather is cool, and the leaves begin to wither. Although it''s bleak, it''s cooler in October than in summer or winter.


    Hanoi County, Huai county.


    Hanoi County corresponds to Hedong, which is adjacent to Bingzhou, while Hanoi is close to Jizhou and Yanzhou.


    Huai county is the seat of Hanoi county.


    Hanoi''s grand governor is known to be here. Hanoi County under him was affected by Dong Zhuo''s rampage in the early years, but after Dong Zhuo''s death, the Xiliang army was in turmoil, and his Hanoi county was peaceful.


    As a result, Zhang Yang was able to sit firmly in the post of Hanoi prefect. Although the publicity in Hanoi County, but he and Duan simmer different. Duan''s whole idea is to submit to the imperial court, but to publicize his inner idea is to defend Hanoi County, not to submit to the imperial court, not to follow anyone, and to be the local Emperor himself.


    That''s the pursuit of publicity.


    After Duan Xu sent troops, Zhang Yang was bewitched by Xu you, and finally sent Sui Gu to capture Huayin county.


    Soon after, Sui Gu won.


    When Zhang Yang heard the news, he was elated and felt that it was really worthwhile to send Sui Gu out. He was very happy to be able to occupy a place in Hongnong county and felt that his life was more promising.


    His strength further, and even Yuan Shao united, defeated Zhang Xiu, he is likely to touch the Chang''an area.


    Enter Chang''an, that''s better.


    On this day, in the hall.


    Zhang Yang called the officials under his command, and they were holding a banquet. The officials and the scholars chanted poems and Fu together.


    Each one is very relaxed.


    This was specially held by Zhang Yang, who called his civil servants and even invited some scholars to participate in the banquet.


    After all, Zhang Yang is the local emperor of Hanoi, and many taxis are flocking to him. In the process of pushing cups and cups, some people praise and publicize, while others chant poems and Fu. The atmosphere is very warm.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier''s voice came from outside the hall.


    The soldiers rushed in and the loud voice broke the beautiful environment of chanting poems and Fu in the hall. All the people stopped in the moment, and all their eyes fell on the soldiers.


    Zhang Yang''s face suddenly turned black and scolded: "bastard, I don''t understand any rules. Don''t you see that there are many talented people gathering in the hall? "


    The soldier fell down on his knees with a plop, and even said hastily: "the governor, the urgent report of Huayin county."


    Referring to Huayin County, Zhang Yang added a smile to his eyebrows and said, "what happened? I''m so anxious. Did Sui Gu and Yan Liang join hands to break Zhang Xiu''s army and kill Chang''an? "


    On hearing this, everyone agreed.


    The expression on each face is praise.


    They don''t think Zhang Xiu can stop it. After all, there is Yuan Shao''s army. Yan Liang is a famous general in Hebei Province with strong fighting capacity. With Yan Liang, it''s easy to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    The soldier looked very embarrassed and shook his head: "Sir, it''s not us who won, it''s general Sui who lost. Zhang Xiu led the army to attack Huayin county and captured general Sui Gu and Yan Liang alive. Our army in Huayin county was completely destroyed, and so was Yan Liang''s army. "


    Brush!


    His face suddenly changed.


    Lost!


    In particular, the army led by Sui Gu was totally destroyed. How could this be possible?


    When scholars and officials heard the speech, they were in an uproar. The expressions on their faces were full of shock and surprise. It never occurred to anyone that what should have been a steady victory turned out to be a complete failure.


    Zhang Yang was shocked at first, then reacted and became solemn.


    What to do?


    At this moment, publicity is also confused. The mood that had been publicized just now was excellent. At this time, the mood had completely collapsed, and there was no mind to chant poems or write Fu, nor to have fun.


    Zhang Yang brushed his sleeves and said, "ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of today''s banquet. Next, I will discuss how to deal with it. "


    A group of scholars, leave together.


    After many civil servants left, the main civil servants also quit one after another.


    In the hall, there was only one scribe left.


    His name is Xue Tao. He is a counselor around Zhang Yang.


    Zhang Yang, with a solemn look on his face, once again said, "come, call Yang Chou to see you."


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Yang Chou is the general of Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang relies on him. Yang Chou and Sui Gu, one on the left and one on the right, can be regarded as Zhang Yang''s right-hand and most valued generals.


    After a short time, Yang Chou entered the hall. Yang Chou is more than seven feet tall. He is thin, with sunken cheeks and shining eyes.


    After he stood still, he saluted Zhang Yang with his fist and said, "my Lord, I don''t know what you want to tell me."


    Zhang Yang said in a deep voice: "I got the news that Sui Gu was defeated and captured in Huayin County, and the whole army was destroyed. In addition, Yuan Shao''s army, under the command of Yan Liang, was completely destroyed. Our layout in Hongnong county is completely over. "Brush!


    Yang Chou''s face also changed slightly.


    It''s too bad.


    You know, Sui Gu took more than 10000 elite soldiers, and now the whole army is destroyed, which is a great loss to Zhang Yang.


    Yang Chou''s eyes turned and fell on Xue Tao. He said, "I don''t know how to look at this matter, commander Xue."


    Xue Tao was nearly 40 years old. He stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Zhang Xiu defeated Sui Gu first, and then captured Yan Liang. It''s not that strong. With Zhang Xiu''s current strength, only the power of the Lord can''t stop her. However, Zhang Xiu won Yan Liang, which is equivalent to fighting yuan Shaoxuan. I think we can solve Zhang Xiu with the help of Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Yang said: "how to use it?"


    Xue Tao replied: "it''s still the same as last time. I asked Yuan Shao to send troops, and then Yuan Shao''s army entered Hongnong county. Of course, it depends on whether Yuan Shao wants to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "So the first thing to do now is to send someone to Yuan Shao for help, and clarify that it was after hearing Xu you''s suggestion that the war with Zhang Xiu started."


    "Second, Yuan Shao''s army entered, allowing Yuan Shao''s army to enter Hongnong county from Hanoi county. After all, if Yuan Shao wants to enter Hongnong, he has to go through Hanoi county. "


    Xue Tao said: "in order to let Yuan Shao send troops and ensure the current situation, the Lord can promise to give Yuan Shao some food supplies and weapons. In this way, Yuan Shao is bound to agree to send troops. "


    Zhang Yang nodded.


    In his heart, he quite agreed with Xue Tao''s suggestion. After all, once Yan Liang entered Hongnong County, Zhang Yang was more at ease.


    Zhang Yang looked at Yang Chou and said, "Yang Chou, what do you think?"


    Yang Chou said: "my Lord, I agree with Yuan Shao''s suggestion of asking for help. After all, in the current situation, we can only turn to Yuan Shao for help. Our strength alone can''t stop Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Yang pondered in his heart and said solemnly, "Mr. Xue, I agree to ask Yuan Shao for help. It''s really not cost-effective for us to be responsible for the food and equipment supply of Yuan Shao''s army. Do you think there are other ways? Can we not be responsible for this


    Xue Tao said, "I can''t guarantee my humble position, but I can fight for it."


    Zhang Yang said in a deep voice: "under the command of this officer, it is very convenient for him to be eloquent. If you go to Jizhou to ask Yuan Shao for help, you have to take a walk. Sir, we must strive to be irresponsible for food and equipment. "


    Xue Tao said: "my Lord, you should do your best in your humble position. They will try their best to avoid paying for food and equipment. However, humble position can not be guaranteed. "


    Zhang Yang said, "try your best."


    Yang Chou answered and said, "Lord, in addition to asking Mr. Xue to lobby Yuan Shao to send troops, we have to be prepared. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s army will be killed first. If we can''t resist it, even if Yuan Shao agrees to send troops, it will be a waste of effort. At least, we should guard Hanoi County before Yuan Shao''s troops


    Zhang Yang said: "you are fully responsible for the layout of the defense. All counties must be on alert. "


    Yang Chou said, "I will obey you."


    After thinking about it, Zhang Yang said, "Yang Chou, we should not only make every place more alert. You muster 15000 elite troops and immediately go to Heyang County on the border of Hanoi County for garrison. If you don''t want to defeat Zhang Xiu, at least when Zhang Xiu comes, block his attack and wait for Yuan Shao''s reinforcements to arrive. "


    Yang Chou said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    Zhang Yang looked at Xue Tao and Yang Chou and solemnly said, "I will ask you for the safety of Hanoi county."


    "I will live up to my Lord''s high expectations."


    Xue Tao and Yang Chou answered together.

 Chapter 375

    Xue Tao went back to his house, made a simple arrangement, and left huaixian in a hurry to Jizhou in the northeast. From huaixian to Jizhou, because Xue Tao rode all the way with high speed, he entered Jizhou and went straight to Yecheng in a short time.


    Yecheng is the administrative center of Jizhou.


    Yuan Shao is here.


    Today, Yuan Shao not only controls Jizhou, Youzhou and Bingzhou, but also Qingzhou.


    Although the relationship between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao has maintained superficial harmony, in fact, there have been many frictions between them. After all, after Cao Cao mastered the emperor, there was a natural estrangement between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.


    In order to stabilize Yuan Shao, Cao Cao made Yuan Shao a great general, and granted Yuan Shao emperor Fu Jie and Dao to show his importance to Yuan Shao.


    Now, Yuan Shao is complacent.


    He is a powerful general with strong troops and strong strength.


    Yuan Shao''s current focus is on Youzhou. Although Yuan Shao''s troops invaded Youzhou, they failed to kill Gongsun Zan, resulting in the delay in conquering the whole Youzhou.


    Yuan Shaozhen didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu.


    In the past, when Yuan Shao planned to kill Zhang rang and other eunuchs, Zhang Xiu was still a brat.


    In the past, Yuan Shao confronted Dong Zhuo chaotang, and Zhang Xiu was only a junior general in Dong Zhuo''s army.


    In the past, when Yuan Shao led the Allied forces of the vassals to attack Dong Zhuo, Zhang Xiu did not even have the right to take charge of the army.


    It''s just Zhang Xiu. It''s not worth mentioning.


    Yuan Shao thinks that sending Yan Liang as the main general is enough to win.


    If Yan Liang didn''t hide the news that Xu you was arrested in Chang''an, it would have been sent back to Yecheng and Yuan Shao. However, Yan Liang worried that the news would easily cause yuan Shaozhen''s anger when it was sent back to Yecheng, so he didn''t send back the news of Xu you.


    As a result, Yuan Shao did not know.


    Yan Liang''s earlier plan was to hope that he would get rid of Zhang Xiu, take Xu you back and solve the problem. But Yan Liang did not consider that he himself fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    When the whole army fell, news came out.


    General''s mansion.


    Yuan Shao is in the backyard, watching his youngest son yuan Shangwu.


    Yuan Shao''s three sons are Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang. Although yuan Shang was a young man, his appearance was nearly 80% similar to that of Yuan Shao when he was young. He was very popular with Yuan Shao because of his handsome and strange appearance, strong figure and brave.


    Yuan Shang is dancing his sword at the moment.


    In the school field, Yuan Shang kept waving his sword. The light of the sword was dazzling, but it was more beautiful than flashy.


    Yuan Shao is brilliant in his eyes.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Yuan Shao cheered one after another, and he was very happy.


    He felt that his youngest son was similar to him, especially when he was young. He was also good at martial arts and was handsome. Just like this, yuan Shaocai likes yuan Shang incomparably.


    Yuan Shang is now in his early twenties. After finishing a set of swordsmanship, he respectfully said, "my father, my son has just learned swordsmanship. He is not proficient in swordsmanship, which makes my father laugh."


    Yuan Shao praised: "my son''s swordsmanship is quite good. In a short period of time, it was hard work to make such achievements. "


    Yuan Shang said: "my son is not hard."


    "Step on it! Step on


    A rush of footsteps came from the school yard. A soldier came up quickly and reported: "the general, Jushi, Tianfeng, Shenpei, Guotu and Fengji, together, asked for a meeting. They said they had something important to report."


    Yuan shaomei head up, slightly surprised.


    Jushou, Tianfeng and other five were Yuan Shao''s counselors. All of them are brilliant and wise counselors. Sometimes, five people come together to ask for a meeting.


    It must be something big.


    Yuan Shao asked yuan Shang to go back and wash, then went straight to the hall. Entering the hall, Yuan Shao''s eyes swept over the five counselors under his command, and saw that each of them looked solemn. Suddenly, he had a bad feeling in his heart.


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "all of you come together. What''s the matter. Is it the battle against Gongsun Zan at the front? What''s wrong? "


    Tian Feng shook his head and said, "Lord, it''s not that Youzhou has gone wrong. In Youzhou, the war against Gongsun Zan went smoothly. At present, there is a big problem in Hongnong county. "


    Yuan Shao said, "what happened to Hongnong county?"


    Tian Feng replied: "Yan Liang and Xu you were captured by Zhang Xiu and completely destroyed. In addition, the army Zhang Yang sent to Hongnong county was completely destroyed. The publicity ministry, Sui Gu, was also defeated and captured. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    After he arrived in Jizhou, Yuan Shao first served as the prefect of Bohai Prefecture, and then sought the post of animal husbandry in Jizhou. His strength has been constantly expanding, and now he has occupied the land of four prefectures, ranking the top in the world.


    In recent years, he has never had such a big loss, even the counselor and the general were arrested.


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the matter?"


    So far, Xu Hongfeng was defeated in Changan County. Yan Liang, fighting with Zhang Xiu, was ambushed by Zhang Xiu, and was attacked by the water and completely annihilated. "Said the general situation, Tian Feng elaborated the war report which sent back.


    Finally, Tian Feng said about the collapse of Huayin county and the Yang family''s assistance to Zhang Xiu.


    Tian Feng introduced all the information before he said: "now Yan Liang and Xu you are all in the hands of Zhang Xiu. So far, we have to fight with Zhang Xiu. On the one hand, it is to win back Yan Liang and Xu you; on the other hand, it is to defeat Zhang Xiu and show the Lord''s prestige. "


    Jushou, Fengji and others agreed.


    Among these people, Ju Shu and Xu you didn''t deal with each other, even though the judge and Guo Tu were not happy with Xu you.


    But at the moment, the war affected Yuan Shao''s overall situation, and several people didn''t say anything against it. When it comes to Yan Liang''s defeat and Yuan Shao''s prestige, we must defeat Zhang Xiu and wash away the humiliation after the defeat.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a soldier entered the hall and reported: "I''d like to report to the grand general, Xue Tao, the envoy of Hanoi''s prefect. Xue Tao said that he came here for the sake of the situation in Hongnong county. "


    Yuan Shao said, "please go to the side hall and see him when I finish my work."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Yuan Shao looked solemnly and said, "just now Yuan Hao said about Huayin county. Sui Gu was defeated and captured. Now Zhang Yang is sending envoys here for help. What do you suggest? Besides, what should we do if we want to attack Zhang Xiu? "


    Yuanhao is Tian Feng''s character.


    Tian Feng took the lead in saying: "Lord, there is a way to do humble work. You can kill two birds with one stone."


    When there was no dispute among his advisers, Yuan Shao was also quite wise. As long as his opinions were unified, Yuan Shao would carry them out. However, if they were not unified, Yuan Shao would shelve the dispute and did not know how to make a decision.


    After all, every counselor has his own reason.


    Yuan Shao said: "Yuanhao''s plan will be settled?"


    Tian Feng''s eyebrows turned upside down and his eyes were sharp. He solemnly said, "the purpose of Zhang Yang''s sending Xue Tao here is to ask for help. Obviously, Zhang Yang is afraid of Zhang Xiu, so he will fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Yan Liang and Xu you are captured. We need to send more troops. But in today''s situation, we are not directly adjacent to Zhang Xiu. The army must enter Hanoi county to enter Hongnong county. "


    "When Xue Tao asked for help, the Lord could first take the strategy of attacking Guo by pretending to pass the road. After the army entered Hanoi County, it would swallow Hanoi first and use Hanoi County as the bridgehead for the Lord to attack Hongnong."


    "Take Zhang Yang, and then play Zhang Xiu."


    "After Zhang Xiu was destroyed, the Lord''s army went west and held the whole Guanzhong in his hands."


    Tian Feng looked wise and said: "in Guanzhong, there were warlords such as Li Xi, Guo Si and Duan Lu who fought against each other and were not easy to attack. Because in the event of a crusade, the other side will stick together. But now it''s different. If you kill Zhang Xiu, you can control Guanzhong. In particular, Zhang Xiu has rice paper in his works. He is so rich that he won Zhang Xiu, which is equivalent to mastering rice paper. "


    On hearing this, Yuan Shao had a greedy look in his eyes.


    Tian Feng''s words touched Yuan Shao''s heart.


    Yuan Shao looked at his advisers and said, "what do you think?"


    "I agree with you


    "There''s no point in being humble!"


    ¡­¡­


    They all agreed with Tian Feng. Now that Yan Liang was captured alive, Yuan Shao''s strength was damaged, and one by one he agreed with the annexation of Hanoi Prefecture.

 Chapter 376

    After pondering for a while, Yuan Shao said, "Xue Tao has come to Yecheng. The next time I meet him, I don''t want to make any noise. I agree to his terms and then take the opportunity to attack Guo. Or do you want to woo this person and inform Xue Tao of the plan? "


    The operation of the two schemes is also different.


    Of course, it would be easier for Xue Tao to accept Yuan Shao''s entry into Hanoi. After all, Xue Tao is an outspoken counsellor. He has a outspoken counsellor as his internal agent, and his annexation is just around the corner.


    Guo Tu said: "my Lord, this is not a problem. When my lord meets Xue Tao, he can test him."


    After a pause, Guo Tu said again: "earlier, when Xu you was not arrested, he sent back a letter saying that Xue Tao''s yearning for the public heart of the LORD was an excellent target to win over. With this premise, I think it''s better. "


    "Good!"


    Yuan Shao said immediately, "come on, Xue Tao!"


    The soldiers went to inform him. Soon, Xue Tao came to the hall. He was the counsellor of Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang. In Hanoi County, there were some identities, but in front of Yuan Shao, he was afraid to overstep.


    "When Xue Tao and others came to the hall, they gathered their hands together and looked in circles


    Yuan Shao said, "Mr. Xue doesn''t need to be polite."


    Seeing that Yuan Shao was so courteous and gentle, Xue Tao was very calm and said, "report back to the general. I''m coming to Yecheng for Hongnong county."


    Yuan Shao said, "I have already known about Hongnong county."


    Xue Tao leaned forward slightly and said immediately, "since the general knows about the war in Hongnong County, he should know that Zhang Xiu is rampant, and he doesn''t know how the general will deal with it?"


    "I think that if we don''t curb Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid the next step for Zhang Xiu is to enter Hanoi. With Zhang Xiu''s greedy nature, the next step is likely to invade Jizhou. "


    "Of course, it is impossible to threaten Jizhou, the general, with Zhang Xiu''s tiny strength."


    "After all, there is a huge gap between the two sides."


    Xue Tao said: "but Zhang Xiu may have an impact on the general, and even the good situation of the general. He thought that the general should make arrangements as soon as possible to attack Zhang Xiu and strangle her in advance, so as to avoid her becoming a big man. "


    Guo Tu stood up and bowed his hands.


    With both hands on his back, he said slowly, "Mr. Xue is very polite


    Xue Tao replied with respect.


    Guo Tu said: "what Mr. Xue said is reasonable. As you said just now, Zhang Xiu may only affect Jizhou. As long as the Lord sends troops, Zhang Xiu will be defeated. But it''s different for Hanoi county. Once Zhang Xiu''s army enters Hanoi County, I''m afraid Zhang Yang can''t keep it. Mr. Xue, what do you think of the situation in Hanoi? You have the idea of planning ahead. "


    Xue Tao''s mind kept turning.


    Thinking about the purpose of Guo Tu''s saying so, in order to make a response.


    After thinking about it, Xue Tao raised his eyebrows and suddenly came up with an idea that Yuan Shao also had an idea about Hanoi Prefecture. In fact, when Sui Gu was not captured by Zhang Xiu, he suggested that Zhang Yang should submit to Yuan Shao for protection.


    It''s just that Zhang Yang refused.


    Zhang Yang''s idea is to defend his one mu three Fen land and want to be the local emperor of Hanoi county. But in today''s situation, Zhang Yang wants to occupy Hanoi Prefecture steadily, but Xue Tao thinks it is not feasible.


    Because Zhang Xiu will attack Hanoi Prefecture.


    The only way out for Hanoi Prefecture was to submit to Yuan Shao for his protection.


    Having made a judgment in his mind, Xue Tao said: "the situation in Hanoi county can be said to be a bit like a dead egg. Zhang Xiu''s troops are sharp and unstoppable. I believe that the only way out is to rely on the general. "


    Guo Tu said: "I don''t know Mr. Xue. Would you like to work in Yecheng?"


    Guo Tu asked directly.


    Tian Feng heard Guo Tu''s words and shook his head. In his opinion, there is no need to inform Xue Tao of his plan. Zhang Yang sent Xue Tao to ask for help. All he had to do was agree to Zhang Yang.


    After entering Hanoi county and arriving in huaixian County, the army can take any chance to win publicity.


    In this way, the situation in Hanoi county is settled.


    No need for Xue Tao.


    Only according to the information sent back earlier, Xue Tao may have courted him.


    Therefore, Tian Fengcai did not speak.


    On hearing Guo Tu''s words, Xue Tao immediately knelt down with an excited look and said, "it''s my honor for Xue to be in Yecheng. I am willing to serve for the general. "


    "Good!"


    Yuan Shao''s face is full of smiles.


    After a pause, Yuan Shao continued: "this time you surrender to your official position. You have not made any contribution. It is not convenient for you to be an official. After Zhang Xiu is destroyed, I recommend you to be the magistrate of Yecheng county. "


    "Thank you


    Xue Tao was very happy.


    He said directly: "although Zhang Yang asked the Lord for help, he still wanted to stay in Hanoi. He suggested that the Lord send a large army to huaixian county first, and then invite Xue Tao to discuss affairs in the army, so that he could take the opportunity to win publicity. In this way, it is very easy for the Lord to master Hanoi. "He liked Yuan Shao''s smile.


    Originally, Tian Feng''s plan was like this. With Xue Tao''s cooperation, it was impossible to reveal any flaws.


    After praising Xue Tao, Yuan Shao said, "Xue Tao, I will mobilize the army immediately. This time, you return to Hanoi with the general''s army. "


    "I''ll do it


    Xue Tao answered immediately.


    Yuan Shao looked around and said, "ladies and gentlemen, who should be the general to attack Zhang Xiu?"


    Tian Feng suggested: "Lord, I suggest Zhang jaw be the general in my humble position. Zhang Zhimou is outstanding in martial arts. He''s the best fit to play. But the relationship between Yan Liang and Wen Chou is harmonious. If Yan Liang is captured alive, general Wen will be angry and go to war. Therefore, it is suggested that Zhang''s jaw should be taken as the main body, and Wen Chou as the secondary body. In addition, a military division should be sent to wipe out Zhang Xiu. "


    Yuan Shao said: "ladies and gentlemen, who is willing to fight?"


    Guo Tu, Shen Pei and others didn''t speak. They didn''t want to go out.


    Seeing that there was no one, Tian Feng immediately arched his hand and said, "Lord, I''m willing to go to my humble post!"


    "Well, it''s Yuan Hao."


    Yuan Shao did not say much, but decided to go by Tian Feng.


    As soon as the words changed, Yuan Shao continued: "the last attack on Hongnong county was assisted by Sui Gu, so Yan Liang didn''t bring many troops. In this battle with Zhang Xiu, he would have sent 30000 elite soldiers to Zhang Xia. There are 30000 elite troops, plus the troops publicized by Hanoi Prefecture, the total number is enough to exceed 50000, enough to crush Zhang Xiu. "


    Tian Feng said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Yuan Shao said, "let''s get busy."


    Tian Feng and Xue Tao left first and went to the barracks.


    As Xue Tao walked along, he said: "commander Tian, when we fight Zhang Xiu, Sui Gu, Yan Liang and Xu you are in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Once the two armies meet each other, Zhang Xiu will use them to threaten us. How can we face them?"


    Xue Tao raised his doubts.


    It''s something he can''t solve.


    On the way here, he was already thinking about it, thinking about it, and also found it difficult.


    Tian Feng''s eyes were sharp and he said, "how can you be influenced by Yan Liang and others when it comes to the great cause of the Lord. If Zhang Xiu really threatens these people, she can only ignore their lives. This is a helpless move, but there is no choice, only a strong man


    Xue Tao nodded and said nothing more.

 Chapter 377

    Huayin County, barracks.


    As the leader of the royal guards, Wang Yue had his own camp. In particular, other people receive a lot of news from the royal guards every day. Many of the news should be classified and need a separate office.


    Although Wang Yue is old, he has a good memory. He will keep in mind the documents he has read so that he can use them at any time.


    Although he is busy, the more energetic Wang is.


    Nowadays, the authority of the royal guards has become more and more important.


    To some extent, Wang Yue is Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the camp.


    A soldier of the royal guards entered with a pile of letters in his hand, all of which were sealed and sent back. All of them were placed on the desk in front of Wang Yue. Wang Yue nodded and the soldiers withdrew.


    After dealing with the matter in hand, Wang Yue quickly read the new information.


    Suddenly, Wang Yue''s eyebrows rose.


    He saw a piece of news about Yang Chou, the great general of Zhang Yang. Yang Chou led his army and stationed in Heyang County, the border of Hanoi County, Hongnong county and Yin County in Henan Province. Everyone knows this news.


    The news just sent back is about Yang Chou''s character. Yang Chou is extremely greedy for money and regards money as his life. As long as he has money, Yang Chou can do anything.


    In order to grab money, Yang Chou withheld the soldiers'' salaries, which is a common thing.


    Besides, Yang Chou also tried every means to get money.


    When Wang Yue saw the news, he immediately took the letter out of the barracks and went to the Chinese Army''s barracks. Entering the camp, Wang Yue saw Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, I found a piece of news in my humble position. It may be useful. Please read it."


    With that, he handed in the message.


    Zhang Xiu quickly browsing, after watching the heart is also alive.


    The news about Yang Chou is really useful.


    According to the records in the letter, Yang Chou was born in Hongnong county and grew up in Hanoi county.


    Is Yang Chou related to Hongnong''s Yang family?


    Zhang Xiu speculated in her heart.


    Wang Yue was a little uneasy and asked, "Lord, is the message sent back by the royal guards useful?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s quite useful. With this news, maybe we can attack Hanoi county without a single soldier. This battle may be quite easy. "


    Wang Yue''s heart is also happy, said: "if it can be so, it is the best."


    After a pause, Wang Yue said, "I''ll leave your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, her eyes fell on the letter on the desk, thinking in her heart. After half a sound, Zhang Xiu had a plan in her heart and said, "come, please let Yang Xiu come to see you."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a short time, Yang Xiu stepped into the camp and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu handed the letter to Yang Xiu and said, "dezu, come and have a look."


    Yang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly. After reading it, he said, "is it my Lord''s plan to bribe Yang Chou with money and make him betray and publicize?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    This is his plan. If Yang Chou can be betrayed, there is no doubt that it can reduce Zhang Xiu''s trouble.


    Yang xiudao: "according to the records of Yang Chou in the letter, it is said that Yang Chou''s ancestral home is Hongnong County, and his humble position is not very clear. If Yang Chou is a member of the Yang family of Hongnong, then it''s better to operate. "


    "I''ll go back home immediately, look up the genealogy, ask my uncle, and find out the trace of Yang Chou."


    "Once it is found out, the humble position will be reported to the Lord immediately."


    Yang Xiu is also keen to see the reason of Yang Chou''s ancestral home. If he can really use it, he will fight in Hanoi county without a single soldier, and the next war will be easier.


    Now, Huang Zhong and Ganning are constantly cleaning up the counties of Hongnong county.


    Once you control the whole Hongnong County, even if Yuan Shao and Zhang Yang have not entered the army, Zhang Xiu will not wait to die. She will take the initiative to attack. If there is a breakthrough now, she should grasp it.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will wait for your news!"


    Yang Xiu got up and said goodbye. He left the camp in a hurry and drove his horse straight to the Yang family. When he returned to Yang''s family, he went directly over the genealogy. After searching carefully, he still found nothing.


    There is no record in the genealogy.


    Yang Xiu is not reconciled, and to the study found Yang Yong, asked about Hanoi County Yang Chou.


    Referring to Yang Chou, Yang Yong sighed and said, "Yang Chou is my Hongnong Yang family. According to the generation, you and Yang Chou are the same generation. When Yang Chou''s great grandfather Yang rang made a mistake, he was punished to Hanoi County by your great grandfather Yang Zhen. "


    "Since then, Yang rang''s pulse has taken root in Hanoi county and has been handed down to this day."


    "Yang let a pulse, unknown."


    "This vein of ours is very prominent. Your great grandfather, Yang Bing, was a famous official. Your grandfather, Yang Ci, was also an official to Taiwei. Your father, too, is an official


    "Our pulse is very prominent.""In fact, when Yang rang''s affair happened, I was very young. I just knew a general idea, but I didn''t know the specific reason. In short, the situation at that time was that after they went to Hanoi, they were named from the genealogy, but they were not included in the genealogy. "


    "So you can''t find it."


    Yang Yong said about it and said, "you suddenly asked about Yang rang, but is there anything important?"


    Yang Xiu did not hide, saying: "Yang Chou led the troops to settle in Heyang County to defend against the Lord''s attack. The Lord found out about Yang Chou and asked me to inquire about the situation so as to make a response. "


    Yang Yong said, "Yang Chou is really a member of the Yang family. Do you mean that you want to attract Yang Chou?"


    "Yes


    Yang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Yang Yong said: "there is a great risk in this matter. What if Yang Chou turns over and doesn''t recognize others? In short, you must be careful. "


    Yang xiudao: "nephew understands!"


    Yang Xiu inquired about the situation, didn''t stay any longer, left the Yang family, and soon returned to the military camp, reported to Zhang Xiu about Yang Chou, and said in a correct way: "Lord, Yang Chou is my Hongnong vein, so I should lobby him."


    "In particular, Yang Chou is greedy for money, which is easy to use."


    "I prepared to go to Heyang County to persuade Yang Chou to submit to the Lord."


    Yang xiudao: "just to lobby Yang Chou, with this man''s greed, there is no considerable advantage, he will never agree."


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "you can promise Yang Chou to be the prefect of Hanoi. In addition, you can give him enough money to make him submissive


    "I''m afraid it will make Hanoi uneasy to give him the post of prefect of Hanoi," Yang said


    Zhang xiudao said: "you don''t have to worry about this matter. It''s only a temporary move to let Yang Chou take the post of governor of Hanoi. When the battle in Hanoi county was over, Yang Chou was transferred to Chang''an. "


    Yang xiudao: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s quite a risk to go to Hanoi county. Dezu, do you really want to go in person?"


    "Yes


    Yang Xiu replied solemnly.


    After a pause, Yang xiudao said: "in addition to making heavy profits, the humble position will also use the influence of the clan. Within the clan, I am the direct lineage and he is the branch. Naturally, I am higher than him. If possible, I will take advantage of the clan to make Yang Chou submit to the Lord. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you have plans, go. I will mobilize the royal guards along the way to fully cooperate with you. Is it just that you need someone to accompany you to protect you


    "No need!"


    Yang Xiu shook his head and said: "entering Yang Chou''s barracks, personal strength is not very useful. It''s better not to take people with you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will wait for the news of your triumphant return."


    Yang xiudao: "I will live up to my Lord''s high expectations."


    He bowed to Zhang Xiu and left the camp.


    After going out of the barracks, Yang Xiu went back to Yang Yong''s house first, told him what happened, packed up some luggage, and then went back to the barracks gate again, took Zhang Xiu''s belongings and took a carriage to Heyang County.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    The axle turned and the carriage left quickly.


    In the carriage, Yang Xiu closed his eyes and pondered.


    It was Yang Xiu''s first task to go to the border of Hanoi County after he became obedient to Zhang Xiu. Yang Xiu attaches great importance to this and wants to accomplish it successfully.


    This trip is only for success, not failure.


    When Yang Xiu went to Heyang County, Kong Rong took a carriage to rush all the way to Yanzhou and got close to Xu Du. When Kong Rong''s carriage arrived at Xudu, he was relieved at last.


    Come back!


    He finally came back.


    When he went to Huayin County, he was severely humiliated by Zhang Xiu, and Kong Rong was full of resentment. This revenge is not a gentleman. When he meets the emperor, he must revenge and let Zhang Xiu pay the price.

 Chapter 378

    When Kong Rong arrived in Xudu, he was already in the dust, and his clothes were a little shabby.


    This time, it''s not going well.


    Kong Rong''s heart is even worse. He was not only beaten by soldiers, but also by Zhang Xiu. He was so angry that he vomited blood. It can be said that he lost face and the face of the imperial envoy.


    Kong Rong was determined to sue Zhang Xiu, and let Zhang Xiu''s reputation stink and become the object of abuse.


    Zhang Xiu is a traitor like Cao Cao.


    Kong Rong went straight to the palace.


    But Kong Rong didn''t find out. When he went straight into the palace, many people were talking about Kong Rong''s mission to Huayin county.


    Some people say that Kong Rong went to Huayin County, put on airs and put on airs, and was so arrogant that he angered Zhang Xiu.


    Some people say that Zhang Xiu talks about Kong Rong in one day, and Zhang Xiu will never cooperate.


    Some people say that Kong Rong is self righteous and despises Zhang Xiu everywhere.


    ¡­¡­


    All kinds of words spread in Xu.


    These rumors were discovered by people in the city, but Kong Rong himself was not aware of them.


    Kong Rong took a carriage to the gate of the palace and asked to see the emperor.


    After the servant reported to the palace, he led Kong Rong into the palace.


    In the main hall, Liu Xie sits on the throne.


    Liu Xie is now sixteen or seventeen years old, fair-looking and pretty. It''s just his body, which gives people a sense of thin. In particular, Liu Xie Duan did not have the domineering and powerful power of the emperor. On the contrary, he gave people a cautious and cautious feeling.


    This is the result of Liu Xie''s experience.


    Liu Bian, the elder brother of Liu Xie, was abolished by Dong Zhuo shortly after he became emperor, and finally died. In fact, although Liu Bian died, he didn''t suffer much. Life without Liu Xie was rough.


    Liu Xie was supported by Dong Zhuo as emperor, but he was bullied and became Dong Zhuo''s puppet.


    After Dong Zhuo''s death, Wang Yun ruled and regarded Liu Xie as a child instead of the emperor. After Wang Yun''s death, Li Xi and Guo Si entered Chang''an and took turns to control Liu Xie. Liu Xie''s reign was not guaranteed.


    The days were extremely hard.


    When Liu Xie escaped from Chang''an, his life was even more miserable, and he could not eat enough.


    Finally, with the help of Cao Cao, he got rid of the precarious days. Although Cao Cao respected the emperor, he always trapped Liu Xie in the palace. Liu Xie had no real power and was still a puppet.


    People are not satisfied.


    When Liu Xie was in trouble and didn''t eat, he felt that with food, the rest could be ignored. Now that Liu Xie is not worried about food and clothing, and his life is stable, he wants to control power, restore the glory of the great man, and establish his prestige in the court.


    It''s just quite difficult.


    After discussing with his ministers, Liu Xie thought that to get rid of the current situation, he should first take rice paper. On the one hand, to establish the prestige of the emperor; on the other hand, to grasp the stable source of income, pool financial resources, so as to accumulate strength.


    Liu Xie''s eyes were full of expectations. He couldn''t help standing up and said, "wenjugong, what''s the situation?"


    Kong Rong, the character of Wen Ju.


    Liu Xie is young, but also to establish the image of a courteous and virtuous corporal, calling Kong Rong wenjugong.


    With a look of helplessness, Kong Rong knelt down like a jade pillar and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me."


    In a word, Liu Xie was stunned.


    Liu Xie was confused.


    What happened to Kong Rong?


    Just now, he asked how Kong Rong looked like his parents had died.


    Liu Xie blinked and said, "Wen Jugong, get up and talk. If you have any problems, tell them. "


    Kong Rong still knelt down on the ground and said solemnly: "I have been ordered by your majesty to go to Guanzhong to see Zhang Xiu. At that time, Zhang Xiu went out to fight. Instead of being in Chang''an, she went to Huayin County, Hongnong county. "


    "The old minister traveled thousands of miles and drove to Huayin county to find Zhang Xiu."


    "Who knows that after arriving in Huayin County, Zhang Xiu is arrogant and arrogant, and she is unreasonable, regardless of your Majesty''s edict. Zhang xiukou said that it was impossible to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper to his majesty. "


    "When I was at the gate of Huayin County, I was humiliated by the soldiers guarding the gate. At the gate of the barracks in the city, he was beaten by the soldiers at the gate of the barracks and stabbed in the shoulder. "


    "When I saw Zhang Xiu, I was kicked by Zhang Xiu, and I fell into a mess."


    Kong Rong''s words were more eloquent and tearful, and he cried: "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu is here. He has no father. He is arrogant and rebellious. He is like Cao Cao. Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shu are the same people. "


    "As an envoy of the emperor, I have never been so humiliated in my life."


    "Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."


    Kong Rong kowtowed again, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and fell on the ground with his hands, looking indignant.


    Kong Rong''s resentment towards Zhang Xiu can''t be washed away by the water of the Yellow River. This time back to Xudu, Kong Rong must mobilize the power of Qingliu to make Zhang Xiu a traitor.He will not stop until he reaches his goal.


    When Liu Xie heard Kong Rong''s words, he frowned with a touch of anger on his face.


    Zhang Xiu is a hateful man.


    After pondering it over for a while, Liu Xie didn''t know what to do now, because now Liu Xie is in urgent need of rice paper to make money. If there is a production process of rice paper, Liu Xie''s people can make paper in Xudu.


    With a steady stream of money, Liu Xie can recruit and gather his own strength.


    Although Liu Xie was angry, he still had an idea and didn''t intend to give up.


    Liu Xie said immediately, "come on!"


    A servant came in and bowed himself to salute. Liu Xie said, "pass the edict. After calling Fu, Dong Cheng will come to the palace to meet you."


    Fu Wan is the father of empress Fu Shou.


    Dong Cheng is the father of the concubine Dong.


    Both of them are loyal to Liu Xie.


    After the imperial edict came out, Liu Xie looked back, fell on Kong Rong and said, "Wen Jugong, and get up to speak. If you say that Zhang Xiu is so arrogant, does it mean that it is impossible for us to obtain the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper? "


    "Yes


    Kong Rong got up and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu is a wild and rebellious son, and he has no father. Zhang Xiu is like Dong Zhuo. He was born in the Xiliang army. He is really wild and hard to tame. "


    Liu Xie blinked, thinking about how to deal with it.


    Kong Rong is still talking.


    Crying about Zhang Xiu''s arrogance.


    After a short time, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng entered the hall and saluted Liu Xie at the same time.


    Liu Xie said, "give me a seat!"


    The servant came to the table, and Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and Kong Rong took their seats.


    Liu Xie waved his hand to Kong Rong and said, "Fu Qing and Dong Qing, Wen Jugong returned from Huayin county without success. Zhang Xiu is so crazy that she doesn''t cooperate at all. What can we do if we want to get the manufacturing technology of rice paper? "


    Kong Rong gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, who was born in the Xiliang army, is just like Dong Zhuo. He is arrogant and domineering. It''s hard to convince him. "


    Dong Cheng snorted: "Kong Wenju, my official is also from Xiliang army. Is he also like Dong Zhuo?"


    You know, in the early years, Dong Cheng was Niu Fu''s trilogy.


    Niu Fu is Dong Zhuo''s son-in-law.


    Equivalent to, Dong Cheng is also Xiliang army background, Kong Rong a word, Dong Cheng offended.


    When Kong Rong heard Dong Cheng''s words, he was a little surprised, because Dong Cheng would not be angry as usual. Dong Cheng has always separated himself from Dong Zhuo and Xiliang military region.


    At the moment, Dong Cheng spoke directly to him.


    Let Kong Rong particularly not adapt, we should know that before Kong Rong was sent to Huayin County, Dong Cheng was very respectful to Kong Rong. At the moment, Dong Cheng''s action is tantamount to giving Kong Rong a stick.


    What about good friends?


    What is the agreed front?


    Kong Rong took a deep breath and explained, "general Dong, I don''t mean that."


    Dong Cheng said, "who knows what you mean?"


    Liu Xie was surprised to see Dong Cheng''s sharp words. Although Dong Cheng was also born in the Xiliang army, in Liu Xie''s eyes, Dong Chengzhong is the most trusted person.


    This is his confidant.


    Dong Cheng has always been in the interests of the emperor. He is a very calm man.


    Liu Xiezhuan said, "Dong Qing, Wen Jugong doesn''t mean that. Now, I want you to say less. Wen Jugong failed. Now we have to consider another way to let Zhang Xiu hand over the production technology of rice paper. "


    "No way."


    Dong Cheng shook his head in a determined manner.


    Liu Xie said, "why?"


    Dong Cheng glanced at Kong Rong and replied, "Your Majesty, now the whole Xu capital, countless people, are talking about Kong Rong''s mission to Huayin county."


    "The news is very loud."


    "People say that when Kong Wenju arrived in Huayin County, he put on airs and looked like his eyes were above the top. Kong Wenju went to the gate of the city, but he didn''t enter. He asked Zhang Xiu to meet him by name and surname. "


    "In the end, he went to town in ashes."


    "Kong Rong went to Zhang Xiu''s tent door, and put up a new plan. He also asked Zhang Xiu to meet him by name and surname."


    "In the end, it''s still gray."


    Dong Cheng looked very disdainful, and said: "after Kong Rong saw Zhang Xiu, he made a gesture of asking for punishment and ordered Zhang Xiu to hand over the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper."


    "Who are you, Kong Wenju?"


    "When you go to Huayin county with emperor Fu Jie, to put it better, you go to summon him. To put it more directly, you go to ask Zhang Xiu for help. You ask for Zhang Xiu''s help."


    "You ask Zhang Xiu for help and put on airs. Do you think Zhang Xiu will take care of you?"


    "Kong Wenju, if you screw things up yourself, you will blame Zhang Xiu for all the problems. If you don''t think you''re right, if you don''t put on airs, it won''t be like this. "


    "Zhang Xiu has said that as long as you Kong Wenju is in one day, you will not cooperate.""You say, isn''t it your fault?"


    Filled with indignation, Dong Chengyi had already rolled up his sleeve and wanted to beat Kong Rong violently. He said, "if Kong Rong hadn''t been loyal to the emperor, I would have beaten you severely now. Because of your recklessness and arrogance, you have ruined your Majesty''s affairs. "


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face changed greatly.


    What''s going on?


    Dong Cheng knew about Huayin County, especially after seeing Fu Wan''s look, Fu Wan also knew.


    Xu has spread all over the world.


    It''s impossible.


    Kong Rong''s mind changed, and immediately thought of Zhang Xiu. It must be Zhang Xiu who started the work first and arranged to make a rumor. At this moment, Kong Rong was flustered and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, this is Zhang Xiu''s slander. Zhang Xiu is really hateful. "


    Liu Xie was angry.


    He tends to believe Dong Cheng''s words, especially the failure of Kong Rong, which makes Liu Xie dissatisfied.


    Liu Xie brushed his sleeve and said, "Kong Rong, look at what you''ve done."


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face is like ashes.


    At this moment, even Liu Xie abandoned him. In the face of Liu Xie''s abuse, Kong Rong really doesn''t know what to say. He wanted to slander Zhang Xiu first. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu did it first.


    Kong Rong has a lot to say.


    Do evil!


    Kong Rong''s heart gave birth to such an idea.


    Liu Xie stopped talking to Kong Rong, looked at Dong Cheng and Fu Wan, and asked, "Dong Qing and Fu Qing, what should we do now?"


    Fu Wan sighed: "for the time being, we can only wait. Now angered Zhang Xiu, he certainly will not cooperate. After a period of time, Zhang Xiu''s spirit dissipated, and then arranged for people to lobby Zhang Xiu. "


    Dong Cheng said, "what Lord Fu said is true."


    Liu Xie''s face collapsed and his eyes were a little chilly. He glanced at Kong Rong and was even more discontented, but he only said: "that''s all. I''ll talk about Xuan paper later. Kong Qing, step back! "


    "Here it is


    Kong Rong left in a daze.


    At this moment, Kong Rong felt cold all over. He can expect that he will become a laughing stock and be criticized by countless people.


    Because he messed up the emperor''s affairs.


    Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel!


    Kong Rong''s heart is full of desolation and helplessness. When he was in Huayin County, he was bullied to death by Zhang Xiu. Now back to Xudu, he was calculated by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 379

    In a short time, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning swept the whole Hongnong county. Since then, Hongnong county was under the rule of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu did not trust the original system of Hongnong county.


    They are loyal to Duan simmer.


    Sui Gu came and was loyal to him.


    When Yan Liang arrived, they were loyal to him.


    This is a bunch of weeds.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not immediately replace these people. Instead, she sent a letter to Xu Shu of Chang''an, asking Xu Shu to arrange people to replace the officials of each county of Hongnong county one by one, and to arrange the affairs of the prefect of Hongnong county.


    These things are prepared by Xu Shu.


    The main thing for Zhang Xiu is still to fight. After Huang Zhong and Gan Ning swept Hongnong County, they went out of Hongnong county to the East, killed Yin of Henan Province, entered Henan area, captured Gucheng County, and then won Luoyang in one go.


    Now Luoyang is completely abandoned.


    There is no smoke in ten li, few people come.


    Although Hongnong County borders Hanoi County, there are only a few of them. It is Yin, Henan Province, that really borders Hanoi County on a large scale.


    After Huang Zhong and Gan Ning captured Luoyang, they did not expand eastward. Because further eastward expansion will involve the jurisdiction of Cao Cao, which is prone to conflict.


    Zhang Xiu moved her base camp from Huayin county to Luoyang. When Zhang Xiu went to Luoyang, Yang Xiu went to Heyang County, which borders Hongnong and Luoyang in the southwest of Hanoi county.


    In Heyang County, Yang Chou is the main one.


    Yang Chou was ordered to settle down in Heyang County. He took over the city defense in the city. He listened to Yang Chou''s arrangement in military affairs. In addition, Heyang County Magistrate also has to listen to Yang Chou, but also to Yang Chou filial piety money, otherwise Yang Chou will be dealt with.


    Yang Xiu arrived outside the city of Heyang County. Along the way, there were royal guards to meet him. Everything went well and he was very relaxed.


    Go outside the city and look up the city.


    In the South Gate of Heyang County, there are troops stationed at the head of the city. Although the city gate was opened, there were soldiers stationed inside and outside the city. The soldiers in the city gate are responsible for collecting the expenses for the people to leave the city. The soldiers outside the city gate are responsible for collecting the fees for the people to enter the city.


    Originally Heyang County did not collect taxes.


    When Yang Chou arrived, he arranged for soldiers to collect taxes at the door to grab money.


    It is full of complaints.


    Many people resent Yang Chou.


    Because the arrival of Yang Chou, increased the burden of the people, making people''s life more difficult.


    Yang Xiu arrived at the gate, paid his money and entered the city smoothly. With the help of the royal guards, he knew the situation of Heyang County and Yang Chou without any information.


    Yang Chou is not in the military camp, but in a separate general''s house.


    The general''s house is temporary.


    After Yang Chou arrived, he occupied a house and put up a plaque of his general''s house. Then he took charge of the general''s house.


    Everything should be settled in the government.


    Yang Xiu came to the general''s mansion, climbed the steps, looked at the porter, took out a bag of money from his sleeve, handed it out, and said with a smile, "please inform general Yang, and Yang Xiu will see you. I have a big deal for General Yang. "


    "Wait!"


    The soldier took over the money, weighed it twice, and was very satisfied. He told him to report it to the police immediately. After a while, the soldier came out and said, "go in. The general is waiting for you in the hall."


    "Thank you very much."


    After thanking him, Yang Xiu stepped in.


    Arriving at the entrance of the hall, Yang trims his clothes. Even if he went deep into the enemy camp, Yang Xiu was still in a good mood and his clothes were floating. He entered the hall and stood still, arched his hand and said, "Hongnong, Yang Xiu, meet the general."


    Yang Chou Duan sat down and said, "Hongnong Yang Xiu, I have heard about it. Hongnong County Huayin County Yang family, there is a son named Yang Xiu


    Yang xiudao: "it''s just me."


    Yang Chou said: "according to the information, you work for Zhang Xiu. You are the people around her. Yang Xiu, are you afraid to die when you come here alone? "


    He also praised Yang Xiu''s bearing.


    He is worthy of being Yang''s son.


    This bearing is extraordinary.


    Yang Xiu said with a little smile: "when people die, it''s just early or late, it''s just heavy or light. It''s just life and death. It''s not worth mentioning. What''s more, didn''t the general kill me? "


    "Ha ha..."


    Yang Chou laughed and said, "Yang Xiu, you know the origin of this general, and you know that his ancestors are also Hongnong''s Yang family. I don''t think I''m from Hongnong Yang family and dare to kill you, do I? "


    Speaking of this, Yang Chou looked cold and said: "there is nothing that Ben would not dare to do. Even if you are the son of Hongnong Yang, Ben would kill you."


    Yang xiudao: "since I''m here, I''m not afraid of death. Kill or cut as you please. But before General Yang kills me, can you hear me out? "


    Yang Chou said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Yang Xiu shook his sleeve robe and said, "I heard that General Yang likes property. I''m here to see you. There''s a simple greeting. Please accept it.""Bring it in!"


    Yang xiuphene said.


    In an instant, Yang Xiu''s entourage entered, holding a two foot long and half foot high brocade box in his hand. Yang Xiu took it, put the brocade box in front of Yang Chou, waved his hand and said: "general, have a look."


    Yang Chou opens the box.


    Inside, it is full of gold and jade.


    It''s worth a lot.


    Yang Chou has always been greedy for money, which can be described as taking money as his life. As soon as he saw the gold in the box, his face showed joy. He quickly closed the box and said with a smile, "young master Yang deserves to be a big hand. Your gift will have been accepted. You have something to do, but it doesn''t hurt to say it. Well, sit down first. "


    At this moment, Yang Chou''s attitude changed greatly.


    The difference between before and after is just a box of precious jade.


    Through this observation, Yang Xiu confirmed Yang Chou''s character. After he sat down, he said solemnly, "there are two things to do next time. One is business and the other is private. "


    Yang Chou said with a smile, "let''s talk about private affairs first!"


    "Good!"


    Yang Xiu said slowly, "I feel sorry to know about Yang rang Gong, the ancestor of General Yang. The same lineage of Hongnong''s Yang family should not be so divided, nor should it be so many years ago, and still be worried about the past. "


    After a pause, Yang xiudao said: "after I heard about General Yang, I suggest to the elders of the clan, hoping to let General Yang recognize his ancestors and return to Hongnong. I''ve already convinced my family members. It depends on General Yang''s opinion. "


    "Hiss!"


    When Yang Chou heard the words, he took a cool breath.


    He is willing to.


    His grandfather, especially his father, took it as a pity all his life. If we can recognize our ancestors again, we can''t get it.


    Yang Chou showed a touch of gratitude on his face and said, "thank you for your kindness. I, Yang Chou, would like to return to the Hongnong Yang family and recognize our ancestors. "


    Yang xiudao: "no problem!"


    After a pause, Yang xiudao said: "I Hongnong Yang''s pulse, can have general Yang such outstanding person, that is also brilliant. When it comes to seniority, General Yang is still my elder brother, my elder brother. "


    Yang Chou said, "thanks to my brother."


    He also changed his name on the stick to show his closeness to Yang Xiu.


    Yang Xiu also said: "brother!"


    Yang Chou said: "good brother!"


    Two people look at each other a smile, that smile, seem to hide a lot of emotion. As soon as the words changed, Yang Chou said, "my dear brother just said that there are two things. What''s your business in Heyang County?"


    Yang Xiu said: "my business is to stand in my position of advocating embroidery. Please rest assured, brother. Private affairs are private affairs, and business affairs are business affairs. If we don''t talk about business properly, it won''t affect the relationship between you and me. "


    Yang Chou said: "my younger brother is worthy of being a hero of Hongnong''s Yang family. I admire his heroism."


    At this moment, Yang Chou was relieved.


    It is also very important for Yang Chou to recognize his ancestors.

 Chapter 380

    When Yang Xiu saw that Yang Chou''s wariness was gradually put down, he had a good feeling for him, and his heart was firm. The reason why he first let Yang Chou admit his ancestors is to close the relationship so as to pave the way for attracting Yang Chou.


    This is Yang Xiu''s plan.


    With a smile on his face, Yang Xiu said, "I''m here at the Lord''s command. On business, I''m trying to recruit my elder brother for him. I hope he can turn to the light and work for me."


    Yang Chou smell speech, did not directly refuse, way: "good brother, publicity treat me not thin."


    When Yang Xiu heard this, he didn''t say anything on his face, but he sneered in his heart. The so-called publicity for Yang Chou is not thin, that is, the conditions given by Zhang Xiu are not enough, and Yang Xiu needs to give appropriate conditions.


    Yang Xiu was not impatient and said, "brother, it''s not too late for me to finish."


    Yang Chou said: "you say!"


    Yang Xiu put up his right index finger and middle finger, and said: "my Lord, I heard that my elder brother has great talent and is a man of ability. Therefore, the LORD made two conditions


    "First, money."


    "The money given to my elder brother just now is only 12 out of 10. If you surrender to your Lord, you will get countless treasures. Brother, you should know that Xuan paper was invented by our Lord. There''s rice paper in it. It''s not polite to say that my Lord is fighting for money every day. "


    "It''s a dime a dime."


    "Second, official positions."


    "Now, brother, he''s just a general under Zhang Yang''s command. Let Zhang Yang arrange. If you get angry with Zhang Yang, I''m afraid the elder brother is in danger. "


    "The Lord trusted his elder brother and thought that he had great talent. As long as he was obedient, the Lord appointed him the prefect of Hanoi county."


    "Brother is capable enough to take charge of Hanoi."


    Yang Xiu talked and bewitched him: "the reason why my Lord can take the lead is that he is only talented. My elder brother has great talent. Why should he bow to the command of publicity? You can get better treatment here. "


    Yang Chou''s eyes brightened when he heard it.


    Zhang Xiu invented rice paper. He didn''t know it. He only knew that rice paper came from Guanzhong.


    Rice paper is making progress every day, and Yang Chou agrees. But Yang Chou didn''t expect that Xuan paper was made by Zhang Xiu. In particular, just a box of treasures, has been a lot of money, did not expect Zhang Xiu can take more money to him.


    This makes Yang Chou excited.


    In particular, Yang Chou also wants to be the prefect of Hanoi county. When he holds the post of prefect of Hanoi, he has no idea of governing the local government or promoting himself. What he considers is that he can earn more money in the post of prefect.


    This is his idea.


    Yang Chou is already excited, but Yang Chou says: "you and I are brothers of the same race, coming down in one continuous line. Let me ask you a question, is general Zhang reliable? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Xiu heard the speech, he began to laugh.


    Yang Chou said, "what are you laughing at


    Yang Xiu replied: "I know that my brother''s worry is that he will meet a cunning rabbit and a running dog when he is obedient to his master. I can assure you that as long as my elder brother is devoted to his duty, such a thing cannot happen. "


    "Say Ganning!"


    "This man used to be called Jinfan thief. He came from the family of thief and bandit. Now, under the command of the Lord, he is in charge of more than 20000 elite soldiers of the fierce tiger army, which is highly valued by the Lord. "


    "And Chen


    "He used to be a cloth clothes man without any foundation, and he was not from a famous family. Under the Lord''s command, the cavalry in charge of Langya camp is the most reliable General of the Lord. "


    Yang xiudao: "under the command of the Lord, talent is the only thing to do. Brother, in fact, there is no need to worry. Brother, when you come under the command of your Lord, you will be able to be like a fish in water. "


    Now what Yang Xiu wants to do is to surrender Yang Chou and make him surrender, so that Zhang Xiu can enter Heyang County without blood.


    So Yang Xiu said.


    In Yang Xiu''s words, it is also clear that as long as Yang Chou is loyal to his duty, Zhang Xiu naturally values him.


    This is what Yang Xiu said long ago.


    After listening to Yang Xiu''s words, Yang Chou said with a big smile: "what you have said is true. General Zhang is a hero and a hero. It''s worthy to follow general Zhang. I agree to General Zhang''s invitation and will submit to him. "


    Yang xiuxin breathed a sigh of relief and said, "good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters to do things. If the elder brother submits to the Lord, he will be reused. Speaking of it, I''ve just been obedient to my Lord. I have no foundation. It''s much easier for you and me to join hands with your elder brother. "


    Yang Chou said: "if you are a good brother inside, I am outside. If you and I unite inside and outside, you and I will surely get more benefits."


    Yang Xiu had a puff in his cheek.


    For the good!


    Yang Xiu was born in a famous family and had great ambition. Is this his pursuit? However, Yang Xiu did not retort. He said with a smile, "what you said is very true. Together, we are excellent. My elder brother is willing to submit to my Lord. I went back to Huayin county to report the news to my Lord. "


    Yang Chou said: "you don''t have to go to Huayin county."


    Yang xiudao: "why?"


    Yang Chou replied, "the latest news is that general Zhang''s army has captured the whole Hongnong county. Today, general Zhang''s troops are stationed in Luoyang, south of Heyang County. General Zhang''s camp has moved to Luoyang. ""Thank you, brother!"


    Yang Xiu gave thanks.


    He was surprised that Huang Zhong and Gan Ning were too fast. In a short time, he conquered Hongnong county. It''s really powerful.


    Yang Xiu got up and said, "brother, I''ll leave and go to Luoyang to report the news to my Lord."


    Yang Chou said, "don''t you have to leave after dinner?"


    Yang Xiu replied: "time is pressing. If we delay for one more day, the situation in Hanoi county may change. So I have to come back soon. "


    Yang Chou raised his eyebrows and suddenly thought of something and said, "when it comes to the situation in Hanoi County, there is one thing. When Yuan Shaoyang was stationed in beizhou, he sent me to seek help


    After a pause, Yang Chou said: "it is estimated that Yuan Shao will also send troops into Hanoi county. If general Zhang wants to go north to Hanoi County, he must do so as soon as possible. Once Yuan Shao''s army arrives, it will be difficult to do so. "


    Yang Xiuyan said: "what you said is true. This news is too timely."


    "Goodbye!"


    Yang Xiu arched his hand and left.


    Yang Chou personally sent Yang Xiu away, and then returned to the hall to take a seat. He looked at the treasures in the brocade box with a look of indulgence on his face. He didn''t like other things in his life, but he liked money.


    It''s his hobby.


    Yang Chou also expected that after a period of time, he was not a general, but the prefect of Hanoi county.


    A prefect has greater strength.


    Yang Chou is not worried about Zhang Xiu''s repentance, because he has soldiers in his own hands. What''s more, there is Yuan Shao in Jizhou. With Yuan Shao''s coercion, Zhang Xiu doesn''t dare to do anything about him. Otherwise, Yang Chou is not a vegetarian.


    Under this premise, Yang Chou agreed.


    Yang Xiu left Heyang County and headed south to Luoyang.


    Entering Luoyang, it is desolate everywhere.


    Along the way, there are few people living, almost empty.


    This is Dong Zhuo''s influence.


    At the beginning, Dong Zhuo moved his capital from Luoyang to Chang''an, and almost all the people in Luoyang were taken to Chang''an, so that the whole Luoyang area, even the whole Henan Yin, was deserted.


    Seeing this, Yang Xiu sighed.


    Chang''an used to be better than Luoyang, because Chang''an was once extremely desolate. Even today''s Chang''an, because of the governance of Zhang Xiu, is gradually prosperous, still less than Xiangyang, Xudu, Yecheng and other places.


    After all, time is short.


    Yang Xiu rushed all the way to Luoyang and went directly into the city. He found the position where the army was stationed, arrived at the barracks, entered the Chinese army tent, saluted Zhang Xiu, and quickly said about Yang Chou''s surrender.


    After that, Yang xiudao said: "before leaving, Yang Chou said that Zhang Yang not only arranged for him to be stationed in Heyang County. He also arranged for his counselor Xue Tao to go north to Jizhou for help. It is estimated that Yuan Shao may send troops to Hanoi County in the near future. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she thought about it in her heart.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu said: "last time, Yuan Shao was in Hongnong county. After entering Hanoi, the army directly entered Hongnong County, but did not stay in Hanoi. This time it was different. Yuan Shao sent troops to help and publicize, and the battlefield was also in Hanoi county. Under such a premise, do you think it is possible for Yuan Shao to swallow up and publicize first, and then go to war with us? "


    "Hiss!"


    When Yang Xiu heard the words, he took a cool breath.


    On the way back to Luoyang, he always thought about letting Zhang Xiu enter Hanoi County as soon as possible. He also thought of yuan shaochi helping Zhang Yang, but ignored that Yuan Shao was a hungry wolf.


    Zhang Xiu is plotting Hanoi!


    The same is true of Yuan Shao!


    Zhang Yang asked Yuan Shao to help him. When the battlefield was transferred to Hanoi, he asked Yuan Shao to enter Hanoi. That is to open the door to the thieves and lead the wolves into the house.

 Chapter 381

    Yang Xiu frowned with a worried look on his face and said, "my Lord is very worried. Under the current situation, once Yuan Shao''s army enters Hanoi County, it is very likely to take Hanoi first. We must seize the time and go north to Heyang County first. Otherwise, Yang Chou may not be able to hold on when Yuan Shao''s army comes in. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what do you think about Yang Chou?"


    Now Zhang Xiu''s view of Yang Chou is limited to the news Wang Yue got. Yang Xiu has seen Yang Chou with his own eyes and has a deeper impression on him, so Zhang Xiu wants to hear Yang Xiu''s opinions.


    Yang Xiu thought for a while and solemnly said, "Lord, Yang Chou is not available, let alone reusable."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Yang xiudao: "Yang Chou is greedy, especially for money. For the sake of money, a man with such great shortcomings can submit to his Lord. One day, you can betray your Lord for money. "


    "According to the genealogy of the family, Yang Chou is also a humble elder brother."


    "You shouldn''t speak ill of Yang Chou in your humble position."


    "But when he came to Heyang County, what he said and heard was all about Yang Chou''s wanton exploitation of the common people and his wanton seizure of money. He will do whatever he wants for money, and he can do whatever he wants. "


    Yang Xiu said: "it''s a disaster for the common people that such a person is the governor of Hanoi. Natural disasters can be resisted, but man-made disasters are hard to defend. Although it is said that Yang Chou will be stabilized by Hanoi prefect for the time being, he must be transferred after the situation calms down, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "if I have your words, I will have the score."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu called Huang Zhong and Gan Ning and ordered them to go north to Heyang County.


    The army left Luoyang.


    However, when Zhang Xiu sent out troops, he left 1000 soldiers in Luoyang. After all, Luoyang was once the capital. Even if it was dilapidated, it would be of great benefit to control Luoyang and attack the counties to the east of Luoyang.


    If it wasn''t for Cao Cao, now his troops are all devoted to fighting against Yuan Shu, and Zhang Xiu''s troops are close to Luoyang, Cao Cao will certainly garrison his troops at the border to make a response, and it''s impossible for Zhang Xiu to enter Luoyang easily.


    Because Zhang Xiu into Luoyang, will threaten the safety of Cao Cao Yanzhou West.


    But now, Cao Cao has no skills.


    Zhang Xiu''s army went north from Luoyang and finally arrived in Heyang County in late October. After all, Yang Xiu and Yang Chou have reached a unified condition, so when Zhang Xiu entered Heyang County, she didn''t encounter the power of resistance all the way.


    Hanoi County, slightly more prosperous than Luoyang.


    Along the way, there were a lot of people.


    After all, Hanoi county is still stable under the rule of publicity, and there is no major war.


    It didn''t take long for Zhang Xiu''s army to arrive outside Heyang County.


    The army was arrayed in a fierce manner.


    Today, Zhang Xiu''s two elite troops, both the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army, are good at fighting.


    One by one, the soldiers have high morale.


    In addition, with the help of the excellent cavalry of Langya camp, they lined up outside the city of Heyang County.


    Early, Yang Chou went upstairs to wait. When he was on the tower, he saw the troops outside the city and gulped down a mouthful of saliva. Originally Yang Chou thought, he has more than 10000 elite, stationed in Heyang County, it is able to resist the army of Zhang Xiu. But at the moment, Yang Chou has no confidence.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu''s army. It''s daunting.


    Yang Chou quickly came down from the upper floor of the city. He personally took the army out of the city and came to the front of Zhang Xiu''s army. He knelt down on one knee and said, "finally, General Yang Chou, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "General Yang, please rise. With General Yang''s obedience, I will be like a tiger."


    Yang Chou got up and stood aside.


    "Into the city!"


    With a wave of Zhang Xiu''s hand, Huang Zhong quickly led the troops into the city. The army entered the South Gate of Heyang County and quickly took over the garrison in the city. At this time, Zhang Xiucai and Yang Chou led the army into the city and settled down in the city.


    From the beginning to the end, Yang Chou did not mention the ownership of military power. Yang Chou''s army still has its own system and is not reorganized by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything about it.


    Now is not the time to break up with Yang Chou, because Yang Chou is still useful.


    The army camped.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    After everything is arranged properly, Zhang Xiu returns to the Chinese Army''s big account, while Yang Chou enters immediately. On Yang Chou''s face, he could not wait for a smile and said, "I''m going to send you to Heyang County. I don''t know when I can be the prefect of Hanoi county?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "when I entered Heyang County, General Yang was already the prefect of Hanoi county. In other words, after you reach an agreement with Yang Xiu, you will be the prefect of Hanoi county. But now it is not worthy of the name, because the general has not captured Hanoi county. When Hanoi is conquered, you will be the prefect of Hanoi. "


    "Thank you


    Yang Chou''s eyebrows and eyes were beating, and his face was full of joy.


    Immediately, Yang Chou continued: "there are more than 10000 soldiers under his humble command. When he publicized his command, he publicized the provision of food and military pay. Now we are breaking with Zhang Yang and cutting off food and grass. I''m afraid we need the Lord''s supply. Otherwise, there will be trouble for these ten thousand excellent soldiers. ""No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu heard Yang Chou''s words, but she sneered in her heart.


    Yang Chou wanted officials and money with him, but from beginning to end, he had his own system and never wanted to accept Zhang Xiu''s reorganization.


    This is to be a country of nations.


    However, Zhang Xiu was calm and clapped her hands. Immediately, there was Wang Yue at the gate of the barracks with people coming in, each soldier carrying a big box.


    All the boxes were on the ground and the soldier opened them. Every box is full of treasures, jade wares, and golden cakes, which are countless wealth.


    Gudong!


    When Yang Chou saw it, he swallowed his saliva.


    He was moved.


    His hands trembled unconsciously. He wanted to rush to the box and touch the money and treasure. Just in front of Zhang Xiu''s face, Yang Chou held back.


    Zhang Xiu said: "all the money is for you. When you return to the barracks, Ben will arrange someone to carry it to you. In addition, your army''s food supplies and soldiers'' salaries will be paid in full. "


    "Thank you


    Yang Chou was very happy.


    He now has a vision, and so won the Hanoi County, he served as the governor of Hanoi county. At that time, he not only has money, but also has his own troops, which is equivalent to a country within a country.


    Even if Zhang Xiu wants to dispatch him, it depends on his mood. His strength will be bigger and bigger.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go!"


    "Here it is


    After Yang Chou saluted, he turned around and stepped down. Wang Yue told the soldiers to get up and take people to carry the box out. One by one soldiers, carrying big boxes, followed Yang Chou step by step and went to Yang Chou''s barracks.


    Zhang Xiu called Yang Xiu, his eyes cold, said: "Yang Chou this person, greedy, more unscrupulous. Such people, if kept, are hidden dangers. Now, it''s time to get rid of Yang Chou. "


    Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to stabilize Yang Chou and then transfer him to Chang''an.


    In this way, Yang Chou was treated well.


    But with Yang Chou''s face, Zhang Xiu doesn''t like it and doesn''t allow such scum in the army. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s military discipline will be ruined.


    Yang Xiu knew it would be this result, because Yang Chou didn''t know convergence at all.


    Do not live if you do evil.


    Yang Chou is like this.


    Yang Xiu looked indifferent and asked, "what is the master going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "I have already taken the first step in dealing with Yang Chou. The first step was to ask Wang Yue to take his soldiers to Yang Chou''s camp, carrying a big box full of precious jade and gold cakes. Next, it''s arranged like this


    Detailed plan, Zhang Xiu explained quickly.


    After that, Zhang Xiu said: "the next plan is for you to carry out. You must stir up the conflict, solve Yang Chou, and even more smoothly reorganize the soldiers under Yang Chou''s command. "


    "I''ll do it


    Yang Xiu said, "if you have the master''s plan, you can count Yang Chou dead."


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t be careless."


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu arched his hand again.


    He put forward the plan to Zhang Xiu, quickly deduced the two sides. The current situation, in accordance with Zhang Xiu''s plan to go on, he does not think Yang Chou has room to struggle, died without any waves.


    The soldiers under Yang Chou''s command, instead of avenging Yang Chou, will hate him.


    Because Yang Chou, damn it!


    This is the plan made by Zhang Xiu. It killed Yang Chou and left him no room to escape.

 Chapter 382

    Wang Yue and his soldiers went to the army with Yang Chou. There were nearly ten large boxes. The soldiers carried them very hard. Although it was cool in October, there were still sweat on their forehead when they walked with them.


    Yang Chou Xi Zizi swept ten boxes, his heart almost crisp.


    Comfortable!


    It''s really comfortable!


    Yang Chou looked at Wang Yue and said, "General Wang, is the Lord so generous to his subordinates? In one hand, there are ten big boxes of precious jade and gold cakes. "


    Wang Yue sneered.


    Generous?


    You don''t have much life to enjoy.


    If Yang Chou knows how to restrain himself and surrender to Zhang Xiu, she will take the initiative to hand over the military power. Zhang Xiu will not let Wang Yue personally take people to carry the box to Yang Chou''s camp.


    But Yang Chou killed himself.


    After surrender, he still had to seize the military power, intending to control Hanoi County alone.


    Especially Yang Chou is so greedy.


    Wang Yue''s face did not show the slightest. He said faintly: "in fact, there is not much money. My Lord has a cornucopia of rice paper. He earns money every day. There are countless money in the Treasury. Moreover, when Yang Changshi persuaded General Yang before, he said the Lord''s conditions, and the LORD promised to give money. Now he wants to fulfill his promise. "


    Yang Chou said happily, "my Lord is a man who keeps his word."


    Wang Yue said, "just understand."


    With that, Wang Yue said nothing more, and Yang Chou said nothing more, because he had already arrived at his barracks.


    Yang Chou said, "General Wang, you just need to put these ten boxes at the gate of the camp. Next, I''ll arrange for all the boxes to be moved to the general''s house. I''m not in the barracks, so these treasures can''t stay in the barracks. "


    "No problem!"


    Wang Yue said, "put down the boxes for me and unload them properly."


    The order is given. All soldiers begin to lay down.


    "Bang Dang!"


    Suddenly, a rope carried by a soldier broke and the box fell to the ground. In a flash, the box turned upside down, and the gold cakes and precious jade articles were splashed all over the floor.


    This scene was seen by all the soldiers under Yang Chou''s command.


    One by one, the soldiers widened their eyes.


    There are many soldiers swallowing saliva, and their faces are even more greedy. They are all ordinary soldiers in the army. It''s rare to see so much money.


    Especially it''s not a box.


    Ten big boxes.


    It''s just a lot of money. For the soldiers in Yang Chou''s army, they have always been deprived of military pay and food. They dare not be angry.


    Now see, all very angry.


    Yang Chou has money!


    But Yang Chou had money, but he didn''t give it to them.


    When Yang Chou saw that his money was exposed, he immediately scolded: "waste, bastard, how did you put the box on hold and knock it over. Damn it, damn it! A bunch of bastards


    Wang Yue said faintly: "General Yang, my royal guards are kind enough to help you, not on purpose. What do you mean by that? If you knew, you would have brought all the boxes back by yourself


    When Yang Chou saw this, he began to smile.


    He knows Wang Yue''s identity, is Zhang Xiu''s intelligence chief, is the pivotal person. If you offend anyone, you can''t offend Wang Yue, otherwise it will be very bad for him.


    Yang Chou explained: "General Wang, I didn''t mean that, but I was in a hurry."


    Seeing that the soldiers of the royal guards want to bend down and pick up the golden cake, Yang Chou rushed up to stop them and said, "get out of the way, let''s get out of the way. I''ll do it myself."


    He pushed all the royal guards away for fear that they would be greedy of his money when they helped him to pick them up.


    Wang Yue saw this scene in his eyes and sighed.


    Greed is so despicable.


    Poor man, there must be something hateful.


    Yang Chou quickly picked up the money scattered on the ground, quickly covered the box, and then let people take the seal to paste it. He called his soldiers. Instead of delaying in the barracks, he carried them to the general''s house.


    Yang Chou left in a hurry.


    Wang Yue went back to Zhang Xiu''s barracks, saw Zhang Xiu, reported the situation of sending money out, and said: "Lord, you didn''t see the scene of the box falling down. It''s so funny. When the box fell down and the gold cakes and treasures were spilled, Yang Chou was in a hurry at that time. Our people helped him pick it up, but he didn''t want to. He wanted to pick it up by himself. "


    Wang Yue said: "Yang Chou is such a man. He really takes money as his life."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "not only regard money as life, but also greed. Heaven does evil, but still lives. Do not live if you do evil. When Yang Chou treats me as a fool, he has to do a good job of being fooled by others. "


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go ahead. Next, pay attention to the movement of Yang Chou''s barracks all the time.""Here it is


    Wang Yue turned and stepped down.


    Time flies and it''s evening.


    In the camp, the soldiers of Zhang Xiu''s army were eating meat and soup, and the food was excellent. The soldiers under Yang Chou''s command were simply porridge and flour cakes, and they ate very badly.


    The two armies were separated by a line, so the soldiers under Yang Chou''s command knew what was going on in Zhang Xiu''s camp. At this time, the main generals of Yang Chou''s army also gathered in the camp.


    The leader''s name is Li Yi!


    He is a strong general under Yang Chou''s command. He is more than eight feet long. He has a short beard under his jaw and a rough face. He looks like a rough man, but in fact he is thick outside and thin inside. He is very thoughtful.


    Under Li Yi, there are several generals, all subordinates of Yang Chou.


    Li Yi looked angry and said in a deep voice: "you all know the food in the evening. General Yang, we are still the same as Zhang Guishun. "


    "During the day, all the soldiers in the army saw it. Zhang Xiu presented ten big boxes of precious jade to General Yang. But we don''t get any of that. "


    "I don''t ask the general to give us the doggies, but the food for the soldiers in the army has always been porridge and pastry, and there is no meat at all. It should be improved."


    Li Yi said: "in the evening, Zhang Xiu''s army was eating meat. The soldiers of Zhang Xiu are strong, but we are all yellow and thin. "


    "Well, who made us stepmothers?"


    Among them, another General Hu Youshan spoke. His rough face, full of anger, said: "we are all obedient to Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu also ignore us, it''s too much."


    Li Yi said: "it''s not Zhang Xiu''s fault. After all, we are still under the control of General Yang. Don''t you see that Zhang Xiu didn''t even enter our army? "


    "That''s true!"


    When they heard this, they nodded.


    Hu Youshan clenched his fist and said: "if you accept the reorganization of Zhang Xiu, that''s good. Our soldiers, eating porridge and flour cake one by one, have no strength to fight


    Li Yi scolded: "Hu Youshan, don''t talk nonsense."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Hu Youshan should go down, but he said, "well, I don''t know when such a day will come to an end."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, at the gate of the camp, I thought of the voice of the soldiers.


    Li Yi silenced the crowd and ordered the soldiers to enter. After the soldiers entered, Li Yi asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier said: "in Zhang Xiu''s aspect, he sent people to send food and military pay, saying that they were distributed in a unified way. The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are the same as the soldiers in our army. They should be distributed uniformly. "


    Li Yi''s face was filled with ecstasy.


    Hu Youshan said happily: "Zhang Xiu has a conscience. Even if we didn''t accept his command, we all sent us food and military pay. This time, it''s time to pay in full. "


    All of them agreed.


    All the faces were full of joy.


    "Come on, let''s go and have a look."


    Li yiphen asked, with the people out of the camp, straight to the camp gate.

 Chapter 383

    When Li Yi came to the gate of the camp, he saw the soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army carrying food and salaries.


    The commander was Yang Xiu.


    "Slow down, slow down, don''t panic."


    "Be careful."


    ¡­¡­


    Yang Xiu yelled and directed the soldiers to take action. Bags of grain, all piled up in the camp gate into a mountain. Big bags of grain quickly pile up, making people dazzled. In addition, there is a big box, neatly stacked at the gate of the camp.


    When Li Yi saw this, he was very happy.


    He quickly forward, mobilize soldiers to help, also take the initiative to say hello to Yang Xiu.


    Yang Xiumian with a smile, nodded: "today''s delivery is this month''s wages and food. Because today is the day for our army to pay, so I''ll synchronize with you. In the future, it will be the same time in your army. The pay of your soldiers is the same as ours. It will not be more or less. "


    "Thank you, my Lord."


    A smile appeared on Li Yi''s face.


    He was full of expectations.


    Hu Youshan and others followed him, all of them were very happy.


    It''s a military payment.


    At this time, a fast horse came, but Yang Chou came from the general''s house. When he arrived at the gate of the camp, he turned over and dismounted, and said with a smile, "dear brother, have you moved all the military pay and grain?"


    Yang xiudao: "the handover will be finished immediately. Most of the front parts have been handed over to Li Yi."


    "Good, good!"


    Yang Chou has a bright smile on his face.


    He didn''t say anything for the time being.


    Everything is settled by both parties.


    It wasn''t long before Yang Xiu finished delivering all the military pay and grain and left.


    Li Yi looked at Yang Chou with an expectant look and said, "general, today General Zhang has sent his salary. Do you think we''ll send it today? "


    "What hair?"


    Yang Chou snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "it''s not today that we''re paying military salaries. All the army''s pay and grain of the visitors shall be put into storage and shall not be misappropriated. "


    The soldiers under his command were reluctant to obey the order, but they did not dare to disobey the order, so they had to remove the pay and grain.


    Li Yi and others were shocked.


    No one thought that Yang Chou directly took away all the soldiers'' pay and grain.


    This means that there is no chance to pay again.


    But Li Yi was not reconciled and said again, "general, general Zhang''s troops have already been paid. General Zhang said, "let''s unify with them, and we will send as much as they send in the future.". In our army, won''t they be distributed? "


    Yang Chou''s face cooled down and said, "do you want me to repeat it for the second time?"


    Li Yi is not reconciled.


    However, he had no choice but to agree. He stood aside with Hu Youshan and the rest of the generals and watched Yang Chou let the soldiers take all the food and pay.


    "Come on, let''s go!"


    Li''s face was full of helplessness, and he waved his hand.


    This is Yang Chou!


    For money, nothing.


    Li Yi went back to his army account and thought about what happened today. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he was. The more he thought about it, the more angry he was. Why is it that Zhang Xiu is so divided instead of unified?


    He''s looking forward to unification!


    In this way, they will not be exploited and poor all the time.


    "Step on it! Step on


    A sound of footwork came from outside the account.


    The curtain of the tent was lifted, but Hu Youshan and the rest of the generals entered together. After sitting down one by one, his face was full of anger.


    The money came and they had nothing.


    Neither did the soldiers.


    It''s all in Yang Chou''s pocket. If Yang Chou has no money and can''t pay his soldiers, the soldiers and Yang Chou share weal and woe. But the problem is, it''s not that Yang Chou doesn''t have the money to pay for his troops, but that Yang Chou is stingy and reluctant to take the money.


    As soon as he has money, he will hold it tightly for fear that people will be greedy of his money.


    Li Yi said, "what are you doing here?"


    People''s eyes fell on Hu Youshan.


    Hu Youshan said: "Lao Li, we have discussed, but we are not willing to continue to live like this. Let it go, it''s not! Anyway, I can''t live this life. It''s Yang Chou. "


    Li Yi''s face changed greatly. He scolded: "Hu Youshan, do you know what you are talking about?"


    Hu Youshan said, "I know!"


    He looked at the rest of the generals and said, "it''s not my idea, it''s everyone''s idea. Everyone thinks that it should be against Yang Chou. If it''s not against Yang Chou, we won''t have any chance to be exploited all the time. "


    "You say, don''t you?"


    Hu Youshan looks at the others.


    "Yes, it is.""We can''t do this all the time. It''s not our fault. It''s Yang Chou''s selfishness."


    "It''s all Yang Chou''s fault."


    "General Li, in a word, will you do it? If you don''t want to, let''s do it ourselves. "


    ¡­¡­


    All the people talked.


    Everyone was stimulated. It was Yang Chou who got ten big boxes of money during the day. It was Zhang Xiu who gave it to Yang Chou, and Yang Chou took it away.


    But now, when it comes to the pay of the soldiers in the army, Yang Chou has swallowed it, still hasn''t taken it out, and still has it for himself.


    It''s disappointing.


    Li Yi sighed dejectedly at the excitement of the crowd. He couldn''t stop it because he was angry and unwilling, so he solemnly said, "what are you going to do?"


    Hu Youshan said: "after discussion, the strategy we considered was to send someone to invite Yang Chou to camp. We laid an ambush in the camp in advance. Once Yang Chou entered, we killed him directly. With Yang Chou dead, we can stabilize the situation. Then, go straight to General Zhang''s camp to surrender. I don''t believe that general Zhang will not accept us. "


    "It can only be so," Li said


    Hu Youshan saw Li Yi agree, immediately overjoyed, said: "brother Li is our highest position, you have the most prestige, by you arrange people to inform, invite Yang Chou."


    "Good!"


    Li Yi immediately called for the soldiers and ordered them to invite Yang Chou.


    Now Yang Chou is busy counting money and food, so he is still in the army. After the soldiers left, Li Yi went to the camp gate to wait, while Hu Youshan and others hid in the camp waiting.


    Time goes by.


    Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others are impatient and impatient.


    They were worried that Yang Chou would not come.


    But the soldiers didn''t come back to report that Yang Chou couldn''t come, so they all waited patiently. Nearly two quarters of an hour later, Yang Chou''s figure appeared not far away.


    Here comes Yang Chou!


    On Li Yi''s face, a smile appeared and he said, "general, you can count it. I got a piece of news about Zhang Xiu, which is related to Xuan paper. Once we understand the Xuan paper, we can also earn a lot of money. "


    "Seriously?"


    Yang Chou''s face looked expectant.


    He''s loved money all his life.


    As soon as he heard about Xuan paper, he was even more excited. Everyone knew that Xuan paper was Zhang Xiu''s cornucopia and could earn countless money. As long as he understood Xuan paper, Yang Chou would not worry about it in his life.


    Li Yi waved his hand and said, "general, please come inside!"


    "Let''s go!"


    Yang Chou nodded and took Li Yi to the camp. Yang Chou walked in front of him. He walked quickly, lifted up the tent curtain, and strode in.


    At the moment when Yang Chou enters, Hu Youshan and a group of people stab him with a knife.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A sword fell on Yang Chou.


    The sword in Hu Youshan''s hand pierced Yang Chou''s back directly through his heart, and the tip of the sword protruded from his chest. Drop by drop of red blood, from the tip of the knife down.


    "Poof!"


    Hu Youshan draws out his knife, and blood splashes from Yang Chou''s chest.


    "You, you..."


    Yang Chou''s eyes widened and his face was full of amazement. It never occurred to him that his own officers and men would unite to deal with him, or even ambush him.


    This makes Yang Chou despair.


    Blood was still gushing out of him.


    His body is in great pain.


    The look in Yang Chou''s eyes faded gradually. In the twinkling of an eye, he lost consciousness and fell to the ground with a plop.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Hu Youshan gasped.


    He killed Yang Chou.


    At this moment, Hu Youshan''s heart was also quite nervous. Although he was full of anger and dared to kill Yang Chou when he made the decision, he was nervous at this time.


    Li Yi followed in, with a nervous look on his face, but he was more thankful.


    Dead!


    Yang Chou finally died.


    Hu Youshan looked at Li Yi and solemnly asked, "Lao Li, people are dead. What shall we do now?"

 Chapter 384

    Li Yi said: "what else can we do? Put Yang Chou''s body here first, and no one is allowed to enter. Now, let''s go to see General Zhang at once and ask him to make a decision. "


    "Good!"


    Hu Youshan nodded in response.


    The rest of us are also responding.


    Li Yi led people out of the camp and ordered the soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp not to enter. After finishing all this, Li Yi took them to Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    Soon after, Li Yi and his party came to the gate of the camp and asked the soldiers to report.


    Now the oil lamp is on.


    Under the yellow light, Zhang Xiu, Yang Xiu and Pang Tong are discussing the next military strategy. After all, when it comes to Hanoi county and Yuan Shao, we must be careful.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier came in and saluted Zhang Xiu, saying, "general, Li Yi and Hu Youshan under Yang Chou''s command are asking for a meeting."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu was determined.


    It''s done.


    Soon, Li Yi, Hu Youshan and other military generals entered.


    One by one, Li Yi knelt down, and said: "tell General Zhang that Yang Chou embezzled military pay and embezzled grain. The officers and men in the army can''t bear Yang Chou''s tyranny. Today, we take the voice of all the troops to kill Yang Chou. We are guilty. Please punish the general. "


    Li Yi pleaded guilty directly.


    The rest echoed.


    One by one, they plead guilty, and they plead guilty in a righteous way. They are deeply exploited by Yang Chou for a long time, and they have long hated Yang Chou. Now they kill Yang Chou, but they feel that the big stone is gone and they feel relaxed.


    Even if you''re punished, you''ll be punished.


    Zhang Xiu had expected this result for a long time. He first asked Wang Yue to disclose the fact that Yang Chou got ten boxes of money, so that the soldiers under Yang Chou''s command knew about Yang Chou''s greed.


    When the soldiers in the army heard the news, they were not afraid to resist, but they were certainly angry.


    The second step is to further intensify the contradiction between Yang Chou and the soldiers by using the military pay and food at night. In the absence of contrast, Yang Chou''s soldiers can tolerate it, but with the contrast of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, there is a gap.


    It''s hard to bear the anger of soldiers.


    In the end, it will mutiny.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan. It''s not complicated. The key point is that Yang Chou himself is to seize and exploit the soldiers, which leads to the incomparable anger of the soldiers in the army.


    All this is based on Yang Chou''s evil deeds.


    If Yang Chou doesn''t do evil, if Yang Chou loves soldiers like a son, even if Zhang Xiu sets a plan, it''s hard to play any role.


    However, Zhang Xiu couldn''t just deal with it like this. She said in a deep voice, "is what you said true? If what you say is not true, you will die. "


    Li Yi replied with a loud voice: "the humble position is guaranteed by the head on the neck. If you slander Yang Chou, you are willing to kill him."


    Hu Youshan said, "the same is true of humble posts."


    The rest of the people spoke.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression was calm, and she said: "you are sure, you are not afraid of death, you are not afraid of death. But everything has a procedure and an investigation process. I will send someone to investigate the killing of Yang Chou tonight. Tomorrow morning, I''ll give you a result. Tonight, you''re going to be in the army for the time being. Tomorrow, Ben will give you justice. "


    "General Xie!"


    Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others, thank you.


    One heart is to relax, they kill Yang Chou, it is also forced.


    Yang Chou is a real evil.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    In an instant, a soldier came in and bowed. Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn, and said, "take these people down and temporarily detain them in a camp."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went down immediately with the crowd.


    Yang xiudao: "Congratulations, Lord. Now we have solved Yang Chou, which is a big problem."


    Yang Xiu doesn''t like Yang Chou.


    It''s a shame that Hongnong''s Yang family has such a person. He comes from a big family and is so greedy.


    Zhang Xiu said: "dezu, do the whole play. Tonight, you take the soldiers into Yang Chou''s army, gather the soldiers, announce the killing of Yang Chou, and explain the things of Li Yi and others. If we want to bring down this army, we must convince all the soldiers. Only by making the soldiers appreciate Li Yi''s feats can we achieve something. "


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu answered with a smile.


    This book has been set for a long time. In fact, the operation is very simple.


    However, Pang Tong said: "Lord, I think you should not go to Yang Changshi, but you should go in person. Only if you try the case yourself can you convince all the soldiers. "


    When Yang Xiu heard this, he also responded and said, "Pang Shangshu is right. He should be so."


    Zhang Xiu also understood immediately and said, "make the battle bigger. Let''s go. Let''s go with the general.""Here it is


    Yang Xiu and Pang Tong should go down together.


    At present, Zhang Xiu, with Yang Xiu and Pang Tong, as well as a team of Pro guards, went straight into Yang Chou''s army.


    Now many soldiers in the army have gone to bed. As soon as Zhang Xiu and her bodyguards entered, she immediately ordered to drum up all the soldiers in the army and let them gather in the middle school.


    A torch, crackling and burning.


    The whole camp is as bright as day.


    All the soldiers gathered in the school yard, more than 10000 people. The dark crowd, soldiers sleepy, or listless, lack of combat effectiveness.


    The soldiers under Yang Chou''s command do not eat well, and Yang Chou also neglects training, so the soldiers in the army are weak in combat effectiveness.


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and looked around at all the soldiers. She said in a loud voice, "this general called you together because just now, Li Yi, Hu Youshan and other military generals all came to this general''s camp to plead guilty and said they killed Yang Chou."


    "Why kill Yang Chou?"


    "According to Li Yi, Yang Chou''s exploitation of soldiers'' salaries and embezzlement of grain made them intolerable."


    "In the end, Li Yi and others killed Yang Chou."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I don''t know much about what Li Yi and others have explained. So now, Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others are detained, waiting for the general to find out the facts before making arrangements. You are called to investigate the matter. "


    WOW!!


    The soldiers in the army were in an uproar.


    All the soldiers were shocked when they heard Zhang Xiu''s words. Unexpectedly, Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others killed Yang Chou. But the next moment, all the soldiers were happy and happy for Yang Chou''s death.


    "Well done


    "Yang Chou, damn it


    "General Li Yi is not wrong!"


    ¡­¡­


    The soldiers in the army were shouting one after another, and countless people were shouting. They were all excited.


    They have been miserable for a long time!


    Their salaries have been deducted.


    Their food has been embezzled.


    In Yang Chou''s army, they could only keep food and clothing, and could not have more. If it had not been for the fact that people''s lives were like grass and it was not easy to live in troubled times, they would have left long ago.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the soldiers who are talking and the boiling scene. She feels that Yang Chou is really a failure.


    The chief General of the first army is so unpopular.


    When he died, he was scolded.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hands and motioned to all the soldiers to be quiet. At the beginning, there was a lot of discussion. Gradually, countless soldiers booed and motioned for everyone to be quiet, and the scene was gradually controlled.


    In the school field, it was silent again.


    All the soldiers'' eyes fall on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her decision.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "I have heard what you just said. Now, I''m going to ask you one thing. Should Yang Chou be killed? "


    It''s a very simple way to deal with it. It doesn''t have to be too complicated. As soon as the words came out, countless soldiers cried out.


    "It''s time to kill!"


    "It''s time to kill!"


    ¡­¡­


    Shouts reverberate in the night sky.


    Zhang Xiu heard the cry of the soldiers, and knew that there was no need to investigate now, and there was no need to release Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others tomorrow morning, because the people''s heart was already very clear.

 Chapter 385

    Zhang Xiu raised her hand again and calmed the soldiers down again. In front of all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu announced: "in view of what you just said, Ben will have understood. This will announce that Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others will be released immediately. "


    Zhang xiuchao nodded to Yang Xiu.


    Immediately, Yang xiuchao''s bodyguard gave an order. The bodyguard left quickly and went to the barracks to release Li Yi and others.


    Many soldiers cheered.


    The scene is very lively.


    The soldiers in the army are excited. They are happy for Li Yi and others, and also for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu did not disturb the cheers of the soldiers, allowing the soldiers to vent their inner joy.


    After half a sound, the sound gradually subsided.


    All soldiers, look at Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang xiudao said: "under Yang Chou''s command, you are short of food and clothing, and your salary has been deducted. But this will not happen here. Today, some soldiers'' pay and salary were sent, but all of them were detained by Yang Chou. Tonight, we will pay the army overnight. In the future, your food will be the same as that of our general. All soldiers are treated equally. "


    Long live the general


    Among the soldiers, there were soldiers shouting, looking very excited.


    It''s paid!


    There''s meat to eat!


    For soldiers, what they want is so simple. They don''t need any commitment. They just need to pay in full and have meat to eat. That''s enough.


    Long live the general


    Long live the general


    ¡­¡­


    In the crowd, the soldiers kept shouting.


    All the soldiers were shouting, one by one flushed, extremely fanatical, full of joy.


    That''s great.


    The cheers of the soldiers, one wave higher than the other, went straight into the sky. They were originally soldiers under Yang Chou''s command, but they were exploited by Yang Chou. Each soldier was resentful, but there was no way to fight back.


    But they are angry with Yang Chou. Just like this, after Zhang Xiu said that Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others killed Yang Chou, the soldiers would be willing for Li Yi and others, and they did not want Li Yi and Hu Youshan to be killed.


    After Zhang Xiu had done justice for them and made up for their salaries, the officers and men in the army completely returned to their hearts. All conform to Zhang Xiu, there is no conflict.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, and a smile rose from the corner of her mouth.


    If soldiers are like this, they can use their heart.


    This army has been under his command ever since.


    Zhang Xiu did not interrupt the soldiers'' cry, but let them shout. Not long ago, Li Yi, Hu Youshan and others were brought to the school. When they saw the scene of soldiers shouting, they felt particularly shocked.


    What''s going on?


    There are so many people shouting.


    Everyone yelled long live the general. Obviously, Zhang Xiu made the soldiers return to their hearts. When Li Yi and others came to the stage, many soldiers found that the shouting gradually stopped, and the surroundings gradually calmed down.


    Everything was quiet again.


    A torch, crackling burning, dispelled the darkness in the school yard, making the whole school yard as bright as day.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Li Yi and Hu Youshan and ordered: "Li Yi and Hu Youshan!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Li Yi and Hu Youshan got the order and immediately stood up to answer.


    Zhang xiudao said: "you killed Yang Chou, obeyed nature, and was acquitted. Each of you will lead a hundred soldiers and bring all the accumulated salary to the soldiers in the army, which will be distributed to them overnight. The military pay shall be paid according to the general''s pay. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said how much his soldiers were paid.


    After hearing this, Li Yi and others were all shocked.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are well paid. Even if they are paid in full according to Yang Chou''s salary, it is only half of the salary of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers. Now, with Zhang Xiu''s salary, the soldiers can make great progress.


    All the soldiers in the army cheered.


    Long live the general again.


    Countless soldiers were very happy and excited.


    At this moment, the soldiers have no sleep.


    Li Yi and Hu Youshan took the soldiers to carry boxes with money. After the boxes arrived, Yang Xiu and Pang Tong arranged for them to set up 20 pay points in the school yard.


    All soldiers, line up to collect them.


    One by one, the soldiers in line, with bright smiles on their faces, were already smiling.


    Money!


    At this moment, they have money.


    More hope.


    There is no doubt about the payment of military pay, but it is fast. It took less than an hour to complete the payment.


    After receiving the money, the soldiers will line up again.


    When all the soldiers looked at Zhang Xiu, they had more admiration on their faces.


    They are willing to work for Zhang Xiu.


    The soldiers didn''t understand the general principle, the poetry and the book, and the Taoist priest''s death for a confidant. However, they understood a simple principle that they should repay Zhang Xiu''s kindness.Zhang Xiu looked around and said again, "you used to be soldiers under Yang Chou, but now you are soldiers under our general. Although you have just joined our general, we will treat each other equally. "


    "Because the soldiers under my command are the comrades who fight side by side."


    "A brother who can trust life and death."


    "But what I''m going to warn you is that I don''t want to allow the general to bully the soldiers, commit crimes, violate the law and discipline. If I violate the law, I will be punished severely."


    Zhang Xiu said: "next, you will face reorganization. When you are integrated into the army, you will know that our general''s army has been reorganized several times. Whether ordinary soldiers or generals break the law, they will be punished. "


    "Can you do it?"


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and yelled.


    "I can do it!"


    Among the soldiers, one by one cried out.


    "I can do it!"


    "I can do it!"


    ¡­¡­


    Countless soldiers, shout.


    All the facial expressions are full of fanaticism, and feel that what Zhang Xiu said is nothing. They are used to being cheated in the army. Now they can follow Zhang Xiu and not be cheated. They are very satisfied with all this. They are willing and can accept the current situation.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "tomorrow will carry on the reorganization of the army, now separate disband, return to rest in the army."


    They were ordered to step down.


    The school ground gradually quieted down.


    Yang Xiu and Pang Tong stood beside Zhang Xiu. Yang Xiu said, "Congratulations, my Lord, you have successfully accepted Yang Chou''s army. This time, we won more than 10000 elites before the war in Hanoi. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this battle depends on dezu''s plan."


    Yang xiudao: "Lord, I praise you falsely."


    Zhang Xiu takes Yang Xiu and Pang Tong back to the barracks, and asks them to have a rest. She arranges for people to call Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao and says, "after Yang Chou is killed, his soldiers have taken over. Tomorrow morning, the three of you will reorganize the soldiers under Yang Chou and all of them will rush into the army. I''ll give you one day to reorganize the soldiers, and then we''ll go north to huaixian county. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao should fight each other.


    Huang Zhong suddenly said, "there are some cavalry in Yang Chou''s army. How to arrange these cavalry forces? Is it all for Shuzhi to reorganize, or can we reorganize part of it? "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to smile. When Huang Zhong''s infantry reached a certain number, he began to want to accommodate some cavalry, because the combat effectiveness of a single infantry was weaker.


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "the cavalry of Yang Chou''s army is divided equally by the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army. Ordinary infantry, allot 5000 to Langya battalion. "


    "Thank you


    Gan Ning, Huang Zhong and Chen came together to respond.


    All three of them smile, because in the current situation, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong want to expand some infantry, while Chen wants to accumulate some infantry, not just cavalry, otherwise it is not conducive to combat.


    After everything was arranged, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and asked the three to step down. Zhang Xiu is also busy all night, the spirit is a little tired. He yawned and went to rest.

 Chapter 386

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early, has breakfast after morning exercise, and returns to the camp.


    Early in the morning, Wang Yue sent the situation of Heyang County Magistrate. After reading it, Zhang Xiu directly ordered the dismissal of Heyang County Magistrate. According to the investigation results of the royal guards, during his tenure of office, Heyang County Magistrate was corrupt, perverted the law, accepted bribes and squeezed the people.


    This is what Zhang Xiu can''t accommodate.


    Must be disposed of!


    Zhang Xiu not only abolished the official position of Heyang County Magistrate, but also executed Heyang County Magistrate, along with the county captains and county ministers of Heyang County. All the officials in the whole system were dealt with.


    They''re all involved.


    Zhang Xiu selected one from the army to serve as the magistrate of Heyang County to stabilize the situation of Heyang County.


    It''s already noon to deal with things in Heyang County.


    When Zhang Xiu had lunch and was about to take a nap, Wang Yue rushed in with an eager look on his face and reported: "Lord, I just received a letter from Sima family in Wenxian county."


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    Sima family in Wenxian county is a famous family in Wenxian county. Now Sima Fang, the head of Wen County''s family, is the son of Sima Yu, the late Yingchuan Taishou. He is upright and just, has a strategic mind, and is a man of great insight.


    Now Sima Fang is in Xudu.


    Sima fang had eight sons under his knees. The eldest son was Sima Lang, now 27 years old. Sima Lang became an official four years ago, but he resigned after he fell ill last year and went home to recuperate in Wenxian county and take care of his brothers.


    Although Sima Lang is a elder brother, for Sima Yi, Sima Fu and other brothers, Sima Lang is like a brother and father, because Sima Fang works in other places most of the time.


    At home, it''s Sima Lang who keeps it.


    Zhang Xiu is very clear about Sima''s family. He also knew that the chaos of the Three Kingdoms was ultimately ended by Sima Yi and his descendants. Unfortunately, the descendants of Sima Yi brought disaster to the whole world, which led to the invasion of the Hu people and reduced the Han people to two legged sheep.


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid of Sima Yi. Because he knows very well that one''s final achievement has a lot to do with one''s own experience. Sima Yi''s ability to seize power is not only his own ability, but also a hero created by the times.


    It is futile to have no current situation.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly, revealing an unexpected look.


    The letter was sent by Sima Lang.


    In his letter, Sima Lang asked Zhang Xiu for help, because Da Danyu of Xiongnu led the army to attack Wenxian. Wenxian county is weak in troops, and now it can resist. Sima Lang mobilized his family''s private soldiers and called on the people of Wenxian county to resist.


    According to Sima Lang''s description, Wenxian will be destroyed in two days at most, and it will no longer be able to stop the slaughter of Huns.


    Wen County and Heyang County are adjacent to each other.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s army was in Heyang County, Sima Lang arranged for help.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "do you have information about Wen County?"


    "Yes!"


    As soon as Wang Yue was ready, he took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Xiu, saying, "Lord, this is Wenxian information from the royal guards."


    Zhang Xiu quickly opened to read.


    In the letter, the situation of Wenxian was recorded in detail, and it was also explained that Wenxian was indeed attacked by the Huns.


    Yu Fuluo led 20000 troops to attack Wen County.


    Among them, there are 10000 elite cavalry and 10000 infantry.


    It''s not easy for Sima Lang to be able to hold up for two days at most when he attacked Wenxian county with 20000 elite troops.


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, what shall we do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, thinking quickly. After thinking about it, he became solemn and said, "now that we know that the Huns are in Wenxian, we are going to send troops. But we have to find out how to send troops. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order. When the soldiers entered, Zhang Xiu said, "please Pang Tong and Yang Xiu."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a short time, Pang Tong and Yang Xiu joined hands and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to show them to their seats, quickly told what happened in Wenxian county and what Sima Lang had asked for help, and then said, "when the Huns killed in Wenxian County, we''re going to rush for help. How do you think we can open up the situation?"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Ben Jiang and Yu Fuluo have a deep blood feud. At the beginning, huchuquan entered Guanzhong. After entering Nanyang, he was killed by the general. This huchuquan is Yu Fuluo''s younger brother. "


    Yang Xiu suddenly fell in love.


    He also thought of Zhang Xiu''s battle for fame. It was the killing of huchuquan that made her famous all over the world.


    Yang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said solemnly: "Lord, Sima''s family in Wenxian county is also a famous family. With the power of Sima''s family, it can be delayed for a day or two. But in today''s situation, Yu Fuluo and his Lord have a deep hatred, but they don''t attack Heyang, but attack Wenxian. Is there a conspiracy? "


    Pang Tong said, "is this Yu Fuluo''s plan to help them?""I don''t rule that out."


    Zhang Xiu nodded solemnly, because the current situation, since it is to deduce the war, naturally we should arrange every possibility properly and consider all the possibilities.


    Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong and Yang Xiu, three people, you say a word, I say a word, constantly deduce the situation.


    All kinds of possibilities are constantly deduced.


    It took nearly half an hour for Zhang Xiu to draw up a detailed plan.


    Zhang Xiu carefully deduction again, again way: "again again again, look at the plan, there are still omissions."


    Yang Xiu thought about it and said, "Lord, we have even considered the possibility of Yuan Shao''s sending troops. I don''t think there are any flaws in the whole plan. "


    Pang Tong nodded: "although the soldiers in the army started to rest yesterday, they are still enough to send troops."


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered Huang Zhong and Chen Dao to come and give them orders. Huang Zhong and Yang Xiu led the 20000 flying bear army to take the lead.


    Chen Zhi led 3000 Langya battalions to maneuver, and followed closely.


    Finally, it was the fierce tiger army led by Zhang Xiu and Gan Ning, and the elite cavalry of 3000 Langya camp.


    Although Zhang Xiu left Heyang County, in fact, he also left 1000 soldiers to guard Heyang County and ensure the safety of Heyang County. Of course, under the current situation, Yuan Shao could not go directly to Heyang County, because Yuan Shao''s army had not yet arrived in Huai county.


    Zhang ganxiu and Zhang ganxiu disappear in the early morning.


    ¡­¡­


    Hanoi County, Huai county.


    The prefect''s residence.


    In the publicity mansion, today''s publicity, even in the face of Zhang Xiu''s death, does not feel much pressure. The reason is very simple. He has asked Yuan Shao for help and is not worried.


    In the hall, Zhang Yang is enjoying the dancing of the singer.


    Now in October, the weather is cool. The dancing singer is wearing gauze, and her graceful body is looming in the dancing, revealing endless amorous feelings.


    When you see this, you can see the blood.


    It''s very exciting.


    Zhang Yang, after all, is a prefect and a scholar. He doesn''t have the habit of having fun in the daytime. Even though he is passionate, he can restrain his greed. In his heart, he is full of imagination and thinks about the things at night.


    Is it one?


    Or two more dudes?


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, at the door of the hall, a scribe quickly came in.


    This is the captain of Hanoi county.


    He hurried in with an eager look on his face. Walking to Zhang Yang''s side, Du Wei whispered: "my Lord, just received the news from Heyang County, Yang Chou surrendered to Zhang Xiu. More than 10000 troops were all subordinated to Zhang Xiu. "


    Brush!


    Publicity has changed a lot.


    "Asshole, it''s asshole."


    Zhang Yang was very angry and scolded. He stood up and his desire disappeared completely. He was only full of anger. He said: "I''m going to treat Yang Chou very well. He betrayed me. It''s damned."


    Du Wei said, "my Lord, what shall we do?"


    Zhang Yang sighed and said, "what else can we do now that this situation is over? Are we going to attack Zhang Xiu? Previously, suiguna fool was defeated, which damaged more than 10000 elite. Now Yang Chou has surrendered again, losing more than 10000 talents. I have only one place in Hanoi, where do so many soldiers come from. Even if I want to go to war, I can''t go to war. "


    Du Wei was silent.


    Indeed, today''s Hanoi county can no longer support the war.


    We are short of troops.


    Zhang Yang changed the subject and asked, "what about Xue Tao?"


    Du Wei said: "commander Xue has sent back the news. He has convinced Yuan Shao. Not only that, when Yuan Shao attacked Zhang Xiu, he didn''t need us to be responsible for the equipment, he just needed to be responsible for part of the grain. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Yang showed a little smile on his face and said, "it''s lucky that Xue Tao convinced Yuan Shao. Otherwise, in today''s situation, we can''t stop Zhang Xiu. "


    Duwei said, "what you said is true."


    Zhang Yang once again said, "when will they go south to huaixian county and delay for a long time, I''m afraid Yuan Shao''s army will not be able to defend huaixian County before it arrives."


    The Duwei replied, "the latest news is that Yuan Shao''s army has entered the border of Hanoi county. But it will take ten days and a half months from the border of Hanoi county to Huai county because the army is on the way. "


    Make it public and frown.


    Ten days and a half months, can he hold up?


    You know, Heyang County, where Zhang Xiu is located, is not too far away from huaixian county. Once Zhang Xiu is killed, Zhang Yang will get into trouble.


    Zhang Yang thought for a while, but he had no choice. He had to hold on, so he ordered: "more defense arrangements must be made until Yuan Shao''s army arrives. No matter what, we must keep it


    "I''ll do itThe captain answered with a clasp.


    Zhang Yang waved his hand. After the Duwei bowed down, Zhang Yang no longer wanted to watch the song and dance, and asked everyone to step down. He sat alone in the hall, listless and anxious.

 Chapter 387

    Wenxian, on the tower.


    Sima Lang, dressed in a white robe, was directing the soldiers to resist the attack from the Huns outside the city. The Huns outside the city were mighty and fierce, which put great pressure on Sima Lang.


    Sima Lang''s garrison at the east gate of Wenxian county has been resisted by various means. Lei wood, rolling stone, boiling water, rolling oil, etc Sima Lang sent all the instruments that could be used.


    The archers kept firing arrows outside the city tower to harvest the lives of the people who attacked the Huns.


    But Sima Lang''s available forces are constantly decreasing.


    After all, it''s been a day.


    It was the next day.


    Sima Lang is confident that he can hold on for another day or two. After all, he still has some troops not sent to the battlefield. He was in command. Instead of sending all his troops to fight, he increased them a little bit.


    At any time, maintain the power of the first World War.


    The cry of killing is still ringing.


    Fighting continues.


    Sima Lang dressed in white, spotless, although Sima Lang is a scholar, but sitting at the head of the city, dark calm, not the slightest fear, but calm, steady command of the battle.


    Time goes by little.


    At the end of the day''s fighting, the Huns outside the city retreated.


    Sima Lang was also relieved when he saw the Xiongnu left. He immediately dispatched soldiers who did not participate in the war to help clean up the battlefield and deal with the wounded.


    After all, Sima Lang rearranged his defense.


    It''s almost early in the morning when everything is busy.


    The soldiers in the army took a rest, but Sima Lang went back to the house at the head of the city, sorting out the gains of the first World War in the daytime and thinking about the shortcomings of the first World War in the daytime.


    In the fight yesterday, the magistrate of Wen County died.


    Wenxian county magistrate and Sima Lang are old friends. Sima Lang helped Wenxian county magistrate fight in the first world war yesterday. After the death of the county magistrate, Sima Lang led the army to resist the attack of the Huns.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the room.


    Just listen to a creak, but a young man quickly came in.


    He was only seventeen or eighteen years old. He was born quite handsome. He was Sima Yi, Sima Lang''s second younger brother. Seeing Sima Lang lose a lot of weight in one day, Sima Yi said: "brother, this battle has just begun. Wen county is short of troops. Can it be stopped? "


    Sima Lang said: "even if you can''t stop it, you must fight to the end."


    "If we give up and withdraw the family''s private soldiers, what will the people in the city do? At that time, the Huns will be rampant and Wenxian will turn into a hell on earth. "


    "As long as Sima''s hometown is well preserved, we still have the strength to defend it."


    Sima Langyi said in a righteous voice: "what''s more, I''ve arranged for someone to go to Heyang County to ask Zhang Xiu to send troops to help. Now Zhang Xiu has captured Heyang County. With his strength, as long as he rushes to Wenxian County, he will be able to defeat the Huns. "


    Sima Yi dropped her eyes and thought for a moment, and said, "what if Zhang Xiu doesn''t come?"


    Sima Lang said: "if that''s true, I''ll admit it. Anyway, it''s not time to retreat. Second brother, you are responsible for looking after your brother. I''m not at home. You''re the eldest brother, you know? "


    "I understand," said Sima Yi


    After a pause, Sima Yi said: "brother, I suggest you leave some soldiers around even at the end of the battle to protect your own safety. At least when it''s most dangerous, it can cover your retreat. We all want to win and keep Wenxian, but we have to think about the worst. "


    "I know," said Sima


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, and outside the room.


    Sima Lang said, "come in!"


    "Creak!"


    The door was pushed open and a dusty sentry in black entered.


    The sentry came back from Heyang County overnight. He passed the news to Wang Yue. Finally, he got the news that Zhang Xiu was going to help Wenxian County, so he went back as fast as he could.


    When Sima Lang saw the sentry, he was so excited that he said, "what''s the situation?"


    There was hope in his eyes.


    If Zhang Xiu brings troops to Wenxian County for help, everything will be easy to do.


    There is still hope in Wenxian.


    If Zhang Xiu refuses, it will be meaningless for him to stay in Wenxian. Asking Zhang Xiu for help is also the strength of Sima Lang''s garrison in Wenxian, but he also knows that he is not related to Zhang Xiu, Wenxian is not under Zhang Xiu''s rule, and Zhang Xiu may not be able to rescue him.


    However, Wenxian is still hopeful.


    The sentry said: "report back to Mr. Zhang, general Zhang promised to send troops to rescue Wenxian. Now, he''s on his way. However, when he returned from his humble post, general Zhang once said that this trip to Wenxian might not go smoothly, so that Mr. Sima would be ready for a fight to the death. "


    Sima Lang''s eyebrows rose and he was puzzled for a moment.


    What is not going well?


    What does that mean.


    Sima Lang thought about it and asked, "did general Zhang not explain the reason?""No!"


    The sentinel shook his head and said, "General Zhang only said this, and nothing else."


    Sima Lang said, "I see. Go down."


    "Here it is


    The sentry nodded and turned away.


    The look on Sima Lang''s face was also very dignified at this moment. He looked at Sima Yi and asked, "second younger brother, you are good at strategy and have a good command of the art of war. Why do you say Zhang Xiu is not going well in this trip?"


    Sima Yi pondered for a moment and replied: "literally speaking, it must be Zhang Xiu who sent troops to help and would be stopped. I think there are two ways to stop them. "


    "First, they are Huns."


    "When the Huns attacked Wenxian this time, it seemed fierce. In fact, throughout the battlefield, it was infantry that attacked, and no cavalry ever attacked."


    "According to the information we got, yufuluo has 10000 cavalry and 10000 infantry. Now only infantry attack. The only possibility is that the Huns'' ten thousand cavalry were not in the vicinity of Wen County. They were lying in ambush on the way, preparing to surround the area for help. "


    Sima Yi said, "because Zhang Xiu speculated that there might be ambush on the way, so she said that the rescue was not smooth. Let''s prepare for a fight to the death."


    "Second, Yuan Shao''s troops."


    "At present, according to the news, Zhang Yang not only sent Yang Chou to guard Heyang, but also asked Yuan Shao for help."


    "Yuan shaodajun, will come soon."


    "Yan Liang, the general of Yuan Shao, was captured alive by Zhang Xiu, which is a great shame for people like Yuan Shao. If you don''t defeat Zhang Xiu, how can you wash away Yuan Shao''s humiliation? "


    Sima Yi said: "the second possibility is that Yuan Shao may send troops to intercept Zhang Xiu. But now, as far as we know, yuan Shaocai has just entered dangyin County in the north of Hanoi county. It is impossible to arrive within ten days and a half months from dangyin county to Huai county. "


    At this point, Sima Yi made a pause.


    In his heart, he quickly reasoned again, and finally said: "so I think that Zhang Xiu will be ambushed by the Huns in the middle of the battle."


    Sima Lang also had a big smile on his face and said: "what my second brother said is true. At present, Yu Fuluo has only 10000 infantry to attack the city, even though the garrison is less than 2000. But at least, I can stick to it. "


    Sima Yi said, "where is the city broken?"


    Sima Lang looked calm and said: "the gate is broken, and Sima''s family is still here. Once the east gate can''t be guarded, we will retreat to Sima''s house and guard with the help of Sima''s house. "


    Sima Yi frowned and said, "brother, your plan is not feasible. It''s too dangerous."


    Sima Lang said: "second brother, you are just too cautious and do things too sparingly. It involves countless people in Wenxian county. As long as we are still in the city, it is enough to attract the Huns'' troops. They can''t kill the people. "


    "Hold on to the end, what if Zhang Xiu arrives?"


    "Moreover, the Sima family is the Sima family in Wenxian county. The reputation of my Sima family is not acquired by ordinary people, not by falling from the sky, but by accumulating things one by one. "


    "This time, Wenxian encountered such a big event. The Sima family went all out and vowed to die. After this time, the foundation of Sima''s family will not be shaken. "


    "The common people will support the Sima family."


    Sima Lang looked wise and said: "although there are certain risks, wealth is in danger. Whether it''s for the Sima family or for the people of Wenxian County, I have no reason to retreat. "


    "Alas..."


    Sima Yi sighed: "brother, you said so. What else can I say? You can rest assured that I will pacify my brothers and not drag you back. I will try my best to organize the people in the city and call on them to resist. "


    "Well, it''s my brother."


    Sima Lang''s eyes were full of praise.


    Although his two younger brothers cherish their bodies, on the whole, they are quite good.

 Chapter 388

    Outside Wenxian, the Hun camp.


    Although the Huns set up camp, the layout of the camp was very loose, not like the camp in the Central Plains. There were no three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and the defense was very loose.


    After all, it was the Huns'' camp.


    The good thing is that Fuluo has been in the Central Plains for many years, and only when he knows the truth of camping can he arrange a specious camp.


    Many soldiers have already rested.


    In the big account of the Chinese army, the lights are bright.


    An old man over 50 years old, thin and with a bent back, sat on the couch dejectedly. His eyes were drooping, his expression was dispirited, and his eyes were slightly turbid, giving people the feeling of residual candle in the wind, as if a little bit of movement might lead to death.


    It''s just a trace of Li Mang in his eyes, which makes people shudder.


    This man is the Hun Da Dan Yu Fuluo.


    He is now in his twilight years.


    At his age, Fuluo''s health was deteriorating. He should not have been running around, but he felt that his health was getting worse day by day, and his whole spirit was not good. He didn''t think he could survive the winter.


    Whenever he thought of death, he thought of his dead brother huchuquan.


    That''s his right arm.


    At the beginning, huchuquan was sent to Guanzhong to plunder. The original intention was to plunder some food and women. Unexpectedly, huchuquan was gone forever and died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Hu Chuquan''s death makes Yu Fuluo feel miserable.


    Originally, the strength of Xiongnu was not strong. A huchuquan was very important to Xiongnu and Fuluo.


    But huchuquan died.


    Nowadays, Yu Fuluo often dreams of huchuquan at night. Every time, huchuquan looks like he''s covered in blood. He puts on his hair and tries to yell at Yu Fuluo to avenge him.


    After several dreams, Yu Fuluo was also affected. He wanted to avenge himself before he died.


    Otherwise, I will die.


    It''s just Yu Fuluo''s inner thoughts, so he learned that Zhang Xiu was in Hanoi County, and he judged that Yuan Shaohui would be involved in the war in Hanoi County, so Yu Fuluo resolutely sent out troops to seize this opportunity to kill Zhang Xiu and avenge Hu Chuquan.


    In fact, today''s Yu Fuluo, on the surface, he is obedient to Cao Cao. Yu Fuluo fought against Cao Cao several times, but he was defeated every time. Finally, he surrendered to Cao Cao on the surface of Fuluo and occupied the north of Yanzhou near Hanoi.


    "Hoo!"


    The curtain of the barracks was lifted up, and a young man with a strong figure strode in.


    Young man is Yu Fuluo''s son Liu Bao, in his early twenties. He lifted up the tent curtain and entered. At that moment, a cold wind blew into the tent. Yu Fuluo shivered.


    Today, Yu Fuluo is very afraid of the cold.


    In October, the weather is not too cold. For young people, it''s cool in autumn, but for Fuluo, it''s arsenic. Now, Fuluo is wrapped in fur and cloaks.


    Liu Bao saluted and said, "Da Dan Yu!"


    He looked at Yu Fuluo with a touch of worry on his face, because he clearly felt that his father''s life was not much left. Today, the situation of Xiongnu is not good. Liu Bao is less than 30 years old, so he is worried about taking over Xiongnu.


    Liu Bao was afraid that he could not control the Xiongnu and that he could not shoulder the heavy responsibility.


    After all, he was too young,


    Yu Fuluo waved his hand and said softly, "leopard, come near."


    Yu Fuluo''s eyes are a little cloudy. He can''t really see Liu Bao''s appearance. Yu Fuluo lived in the Central Plains for many years, and some customs were gradually sinicized, which had an invisible impact.


    "Yes


    Liu Bao stepped forward and sat down in front of Fuluo.


    When Liu Bao came near, Yu Fuluo saw Liu Bao''s face clearly and asked, "what''s the morale of the soldiers in the army?"


    Liu Bao said: "we failed to attack Wenxian for two consecutive days. Our soldiers have lost nearly three thousand in the fighting these two days. The morale of the army has been affected


    Yu Fuluo said, "what are you going to do?"


    Liu Bao''s eyes flashed a fierce color, gritted his teeth and said: "when we attack the city tomorrow, I''m ready to order that we just break Wenxian and let the soldiers kill Wenxian for three days."


    "The Han people said that under the heavy reward, there must be brave men. They used slaughtering to stimulate the blood of the soldiers and make them fight regardless of their own lives."


    "In my son''s opinion, it was easy to break Wenxian. But I didn''t expect that there were capable people guarding Wenxian. With very few troops, we blocked our army. "


    Liu Bao said in a deep voice: "but even so, Wenxian''s troops are just fighting hard. All resistance is in vain in the end. Da Dan Yu can rest assured that fighting tomorrow will surely break Wen County''s reputation. "


    "I believe you!"


    Yu Fuluo raised his hand and landed on Liu Bao''s head with a kind look on his face.


    This is his only son.


    He didn''t feel at ease, but as long as he won Wen County and defeated Zhang Xiu, the situation in Guanzhong was chaotic, Liu Bao could fish in troubled waters and seek opportunities to gain a foothold in Guanzhong.This is Liu Bao''s chance.


    Liu Bao said, "Da Danyu, I just got the news from Heyang County. Zhang Xiu sent troops. According to the information, Zhang Xiu sent General Huang Zhong to Wenxian. After that, Zhang Xiu led a large army in the rear, and tens of thousands of troops came to Wenxian. "


    "Well, well, at last."


    Yu Fuluo''s eyes narrowed slightly, suddenly widened, and his eyes showed fierce killing intention.


    He dreams of revenge.


    He is going to kill Zhang Xiu.


    If he doesn''t kill Zhang Xiu, he will die.


    In the winter of last year, he fell on his bed and almost couldn''t get up. A nightmare woke him up, and Yu Fuluo, who came back, stayed up for another year.


    Yu Fuluo knew that he could not survive this year, so he always wanted to revenge.


    This is Yu Fuluo''s obsession.


    Yu Fuluo asked again, "have all the cavalry in the middle of the ambush been in place?"


    Liu Bao looked confident and said with a smile: "Da Dan Yu, don''t worry. Our 10000 excellent riders have already been in place. As soon as Zhang Xiu''s former army arrives, the cavalry will surely defeat Huang Zhong. "


    After a pause, Liu Bao added: "even though there are nearly 20000 infantry under Huang Zhong''s command, the infantry are naturally weak on the battlefield and are not our cavalry opponents. We are bound to win this battle. "


    "I believe in your arrangement."


    When Yu Fuluo finished, he was suddenly out of breath and coughed. He coughed one after another, his wrinkled cheeks turned red, his eyes widened, and his turbid eyes were covered with blood.


    "Poof!"


    Suddenly, Yu Fuluo opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    His spirit suddenly withered.


    There was no change in Yu Fuluo''s face. He just took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sighed: "it seems that this year, I really can''t get through it."


    Liu Bao''s eyes were sour and said, "Da Danyu will be able to survive."


    Yu Fuluo gave a bitter smile and shook his head. He patted Liu Bao on the shoulder and said: "this battle is under your command. As long as you defeat Zhang Xiu and avenge huchuquan, it proves your strength. In this way, I will die. "


    Liu Bao was silent.


    He was saddened by Fuluo''s illness, but also worried about the pressure he was about to bear.


    Liu Bao took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and then said: "Da Dan Yu, don''t worry, we will win this battle. I will certainly fulfill Da Danyu''s hope and get revenge. "


    Yu Fuluo nodded. As soon as his energy and spirit fell very low, he waved his hand and motioned Liu Bao to step down.


    Liu Bao got up and walked out of the big account of the Chinese army, told the soldiers to take care of Yu Fuluo carefully, and then went to deal with military affairs.

 Chapter 389

    On the official road to Wenxian County, the flying bear army led by Huang Zhong is on its way. This time, the flying bear army was fully equipped, not only with shields, but also with spears.


    The speed of soldiers in the army is also extremely fast.


    Huang Zhong was in charge of the Chinese army, commanding the soldiers to go on their way. When the soldiers were marching fast, Huang Zhong also sent sentries to inquire about the situation in front of them to ensure that he knew the situation of the Huns.


    "Newspaper!"


    On the official road, there are soldiers shouting.


    A sentry came with his horse. Where he passed, soldiers gave way one after another and allowed the sentry to ride through.


    Soon, the sentry came to Huang Zhong.


    The sentinel looked solemn and reported: "general, we need to make a general inquiry about the situation ahead. According to our conjecture, the Huns did ambush on the way to Wenxian. They are hiding in Shapingba. However, the hiding place of the Huns has not been found yet. A group of sentinel brothers are actively exploring it. "


    Shapingba, 50 li away from Wenxian County, is surrounded by sand and smooth roads. This area is extremely flat, no hills, no rocks, Artemisia are only half a person tall.


    It''s more than ten miles in a circle.


    Huang Zhong asked, "how far are we from Shapingba now?"


    The sentry replied, "we are more than 20 miles away from the Shapingba."


    Twenty miles!


    Huang Zhong thought carefully.


    A moment later, Huang Zhong looked at Yang Xiu and said in a deep voice, "Yang Changshi, although my Lord and Gan Ning are fighting to send troops, when the army leaves Heyang County, he will lead 3000 Langya battalions to Wenxian County for rescue. Now, has it bypassed us? "


    Because the Huns who ambush him are cavalry, he can defeat the Huns, but it is difficult to destroy them completely. After all, the Huns were cavalry, and it was hard to catch up.


    Huang Zhong needs time for Zhang Xiu.


    At least, Zhang Xiu went around to the front of Shapingba to help Sima''s family solve the threat of Xiongnu.


    In this way, the Hun cavalry and infantry would not converge.


    This is the plan.


    Yang Xiu replied: "according to the established plan, the Lord wants to go around. It should be tonight. Now, we can slow down. And it''s not far from dark. "


    "Yes!"


    Huang Zhong nodded.


    He gave the order, and the soldiers in the army, who were on their way at full speed, soon slowed down. And the front-line sentinels are still searching for information. When it was dark, the army stopped and camped.


    The cook in the army began to cook and prepare the food for the evening.


    The army took a rest and began to set up barracks.


    Huang Zhong''s camp is very strict, with three steps for a post and five steps for a sentry post. There are also ambushes in the army. Once there are cavalry to kill, Huang Zhong can deal with it in time, not in a hurry.


    On October night, the waning moon hangs high.


    Huang Zhong and Yang Xiu patrol the army together to check the patrol of the soldiers and whether the soldiers rest.


    Two people patrol, but did not find any problems.


    When Yang Xiu was walking, he suddenly looked up at the sky, but saw that there were dark clouds gathering in the sky to cover the waning moon. It''s just that the dark clouds are not completely covered, and the moon is too vague to see clearly.


    Huang Zhong took two steps forward, and suddenly found that Yang Xiu didn''t keep up with him. Looking back, he saw Yang Xiu standing in the same place, looking up at the sky in a daze.


    Huang Zhong has some doubts.


    What''s the matter?


    Huang Zhong didn''t disturb Yang Xiu. He stopped and looked up at the sky. He didn''t find anything in the sky. That is to say, the moon is covered with a layer of grey clouds, some of which are covered by clouds.


    Others, nothing.


    Huang Zhong glared for a long time, but he didn''t see that Yang Xiu had another action. He asked, "Yang Changshi, what''s the matter?"


    When Yang Xiu heard Huang Zhong''s words, he recovered. With a look of excitement in his eyes, he said, "General Huang, maybe we have a way to annihilate the Hun cavalry in ambush."


    "What can I do?"


    When Huang Zhong heard this, he was overjoyed.


    Yang Xiu is a new talent recruited by Zhang Xiu. As soon as he comes under Zhang Xiu''s command, he solves Yang Chou, which is admired by everyone. In particular, Yang Xiu was born in Hongnong Yang family. He is a real son of a big family. No one can despise him.


    Huang Zhong was quite polite to Yang Xiu.


    Yang Xiu looked excited and said, "in terms of astronomical phenomena, I have some experience. The original sky, sunny weather, the moon hanging high, do not see any sign of rain. Just now, the river of stars turned sharply, the stars shifted and the dark clouds covered the moon. It was obvious that it was going to rain. "


    Huang Zhong frowned and said, "even if we can see that there will be rain in the near future, we can''t judge whether there will be rain tomorrow according to the current situation. We have reached the sand flat dam. We can''t wait for the rain all the time. "


    After a pause, Huang Zhong said, "if we don''t move forward all the time, it''s useless even if it rains."


    Yang Xiu had a look of madness in his eyes and said, "General Huang, go back and have a rest. Tonight, I want to watch the sky at night. I''ll take a closer look and make sure it rains"Is that ok?"


    Huang Zhong is skeptical.


    For some experienced farmers, Huang Zhong believes it.


    Yang Xiu is young after all.


    So Huang Zhong''s heart is skeptical. He thinks that Yang Xiu should not be able to judge the astronomical phenomena under the current situation.


    "Yes


    Yang Xiu nodded solemnly.


    He firmly believed that it would be worthwhile to solve the war through the celestial phenomena and the power of nature.


    Huang Zhong said with a smile: "in that case, I will be here with you."


    "Whatever you want!"


    Yang Xiu didn''t say much either. He just sat down and looked at the signs in the sky carefully.


    Huang Zhong saw all this in his eyes, but he shook his head in his heart. He didn''t think he could find anything, but since Yang Xiu said that he was a young man, he respected Yang Xiu''s plan. It doesn''t hurt to be unable to judge.


    Huang Zhong sat bored. At the end, he simply closed his eyes beside him.


    Yang Xiu is still observing the sky.


    From time to time, he also measured the wind speed to see if there was any change on the ground. In Yang Xiu''s busy life, time passed by, and it was almost early in the morning.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of hasty steps came.


    A soldier came to Huang Zhong''s side, gently woke him up and reported: "general, we have found the trace of Huns. The hiding place of the Huns is sixteen Li to the northeast of our country. "


    "I see!"


    Huang Zhong nodded and said nothing.


    In today''s situation, even if the Hun camp was found, it would not play any role. In the evening, the cavalry turned over and quickly left.


    Kill them, and they''ll be attacked.


    It''s quite uneconomic.


    Huang Zhong''s plan at the moment is still in accordance with the plan made by Zhang Xiu before, honestly leading the army forward. When the Xiongnu cavalry came, he led the army to resist the Xiongnu cavalry, and finally took the opportunity to retreat to attract the Xiongnu cavalry to pursue.


    After retreating, he and Chen Dao in the rear surrounded and tried to destroy the Hun cavalry.


    This is the earliest plan.


    Even if it is impossible to destroy the Hun cavalry, the escaped Hun cavalry will go back to Wenxian, but Zhang Xiu and Sima''s family will join hands in Wenxian to ensure the victory of Wenxian first, and then it will be easy to destroy the escaped cavalry.


    Huang Zhong saw that Yang Xiu was still observing the sky, and even he was a little crazy. He frowned.


    He didn''t have much patience.


    After all, it''s almost early in the morning. If you drag on, you won''t want to sleep tonight.


    Huang Zhong stood up, patted his ass, and was ready to go back to the camp to have a rest. Just after Huang Zhonggang took two steps, suddenly, a hearty laugh rang out behind him.


    "Ha ha ha There''s a chance. There''s a chance. It''s very easy to break the Huns. "


    Yang Xiu laughs and looks crazy.


    Huang Zhong stops when he hears the big and small voices. He turns around and looks at Yang Xiu, who is as crazy as crazy. He smokes at the corner of his mouth.

 Chapter 390

    Huang Zhong has a feeling of facing a madman. He can''t imagine that Yang Xiu, who has always been gentle, would suddenly be so crazy and desperate.


    It''s amazing.


    Since Yang Xiu''s surrender to Zhang Xiu, he has always been a wise pearl with a calm manner.


    I''ve never been so crazy.


    Huang Zhong stares at Yang Xiu. When Yang Xiu sees Huang Zhong''s stunned look, he stops laughing and looks embarrassed. He says, "General Huang, I''ll make you laugh."


    "No harm," said Huang Zhong


    Yang Xiu regained his composure and said, "General Huang, I see an opportunity to defeat the enemy, even to wipe out the Hun cavalry."


    Huang Zhong asked quietly, "how can I defeat the Huns?"


    Yang Xiu looked up at the sky and said, "the sky is changing and hazy tonight. However, after careful observation, I have come to the conclusion that there will be a storm in an hour. "


    "This heavy rain will turn the whole area of the sand flat dam into a swamp."


    "Especially the sand level dam itself is sand. Once it rains, although there is no depression, the ground is full of mud. It''s impossible for the Hun cavalry to ride on their horses in such mud. "


    "This heavy rain was our weapon, which cut off the means of attack for us. On this premise, we immediately set out and went straight to the hiding place of the Huns. "


    "When I was watching the sky at night just now, I heard a soldier report that the hiding place of the Huns was sixteen miles away. Now, we are on our way all night, but the Huns are not on guard. We will kill them and win this battle. "


    Yang Xiu is very determined.


    He believed in his own judgment.


    Huang Zhong looked solemn and didn''t respond immediately. He said, "you infer that it will rain in an hour, but what if it doesn''t? We are close to the Huns, which is quite dangerous for us


    Yang Xiu said confidently: "in fact, it doesn''t matter. All the soldiers in our army are armed with shields and have long spearmen. Even if it doesn''t rain, we can still defend, not afraid of the Huns attack


    "It''s dangerous, but it''s not."


    "On the other hand, once it rains tonight and the roads are muddy, it''s useless to send troops after it rains. Only now can we send troops, and the Huns'' sentinels can''t find us and have no defense. "


    "Once it rains heavily and it''s daybreak, it''s impossible to encircle and kill the Huns."


    Yang Xiu was incoherent and said excitedly: "it''s not too late to launch an attack after the heavy rain makes the road muddy. In a word, sending troops is beneficial but not harmful. General Huang, what do you think? "


    "So it is


    When Huang Zhong heard this, he also saw the opportunity.


    Seize the opportunity and the battle will be easy.


    Huang Zhong clenched his fist, waved it in the air and said, "I''ll call the soldiers immediately. The camp in the army is still here, while the army quietly leaves the camp and marches


    Yang xiudao: "General Huang Yingming!"


    He firmly believes in his ability to watch the sky at night, but in fact he is young after all. Being young means that he has no hair on his mouth and is not able to do things well. Huang Zhongneng trusts him and makes him grateful.


    Huang Zhong immediately sent orders to send troops.


    This time, the soldiers were summoned. Instead of drumming, they were ordered separately. Because once the war drum was sounded, it was easy to cause a big stir, so Huang Zhong ordered the soldiers to send orders one by one.


    Time is not long, the soldiers in the army move quickly. Less than half a quarter of an hour, 20000 soldiers gathered.


    Huang Zhong left a thousand soldiers in the camp, then left quietly with the rest of the army from the rear camp, and let the sentry lead the way to the direction of the Huns.


    Nearly 20000 people were on their way, and the soldiers with torches were in the minority.


    Just make sure you''re on your way.


    Half an hour later, dark clouds gathered in the sky, dark as ink, and lightning flashed.


    "Boom!"


    A thunder and lightning broke through the sky, lit up the sky and dispelled the darkness in an instant.


    The whole world turned into a white light.


    It''s as bright as day.


    Huang Zhong led the soldiers on their way. When he saw the sudden lightning, his face showed a look of amazement, and he was ecstatic again.


    Yes!


    Yang Xiu was right.


    Huang Zhong looked at Yang Xiu and said, "Yang Changshi, you are a God."


    Yang xiudao: "General Huang, let''s hurry. Look at this, at most another quarter of an hour, the heavy rain is coming. Thunder and lightning are so powerful that it must rain heavily next. After the heavy rain, it is enough to turn the sand flat dam into a muddy swamp and make all the cavalry completely lose the ability to run. "


    "Come on, speed up!"


    Huang Zhong once again ordered the soldiers to speed up their way. Less than a quarter of an hour later, it began to rain in the sky.


    "Tick! TickBean sized raindrops fall down.


    "Wow!"


    The raindrops form a line, and the rain falls like a splash, splashing on the sand. At the beginning, there was soil splashing, but in a moment, it was soaked by rain, and the ground became completely muddy.


    It''s raining more and more.


    There was rain all over the world.


    Countless soldiers, have been wet by the rain, one by one have become a drowned chicken.


    Good rain


    Huang Zhong was drenched by the heavy rain. He was not worried, but very happy. Because of the heavy rain, it was just in time.


    Huang Zhong said excitedly: "sons, the front is the resting place for the Huns. Now the heavy rain is coming, the Huns'' horses have lost the chance to run. It''s our chance to kill each other. Go ahead, full speed


    At this moment, Huang Zhong was very excited.


    As the news spread, with the implementation of the order, all the soldiers were excited to learn that they were on their way all night to cover up the Huns, especially when the heavy rain would make the Huns lose their advantage.


    Kill the Huns and make contributions.


    This is how natural and unrestrained.


    Although there was heavy rain, the soldiers were fighting high spirited and on their way.


    As the heavy rain continued, the ground became more and more muddy, and the soldiers on their way became more and more inconvenient. Especially when many soldiers are on their way, the soles of their shoes fall off and their trouser legs are covered with mud, which is particularly embarrassing.


    The soldiers were energetic, but extremely excited.


    They hold on to their weapons and go at full speed.


    Yang Xiu was a scholar. After the war horse was unable to drive, he got off the horse and walked. Although Yang Xiu''s physique is not as good as that of ordinary soldiers, he still sticks to it.


    He is not afraid of wind and rain!


    He wants to witness the victory of the war!


    Suddenly, Yang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and suggested, "General Huang, when the rain comes, we don''t need to take a shield. In this battle, we are going to attack with all our strength. The shield is heavy, which affects the attack of soldiers. "


    Huang Zhong heard the speech and nodded his approval.


    Immediately, Huang Zhong ordered all soldiers with shields to throw away their shields and drive at full speed.


    Soldiers in the army are still on their way. When they get to the back, the torches they are carrying have been extinguished under the heavy rain, and the light is getting darker and darker.


    It''s getting more and more inconvenient to go on the road.


    "Here it is


    At the front, suddenly a soldier called.


    The soldier at the front stopped and saw a flash of fire not far away. Even if the heavy rain falls, but hundreds of feet ahead, a torch burning, dispelling the darkness.


    On every torch, there is a shelter for the rain. In addition, bonfires were burning basin by basin, dispersing the darkness and making it possible to see the light at night.


    Huang Zhong and Yang Xiu quickly came forward and saw the burning light under the rain curtain in front of them, both eyes shining.


    "Here, at last."


    Huang Zhong showed a bright smile on his face. He swung his long knife and pointed to the front, saying: "sons, the Huns are in front of us. The Huns wreaked havoc on the Han people and slaughtered them. If you don''t kill the Huns, you will be a man. "


    "Kill


    "Kill me!"


    Huang Zhong braved the pouring rain and tried to roar. In a twinkling of an eye, Huang Zhong''s cry was covered by the dense rain, but the soldiers were excited when they heard Huang Zhong''s order.


    Boundless fighting spirit breeds from the army.


    The murderous atmosphere permeated the army.


    Kill!!


    Countless soldiers, as if with red eyes, rushed out with long guns in their hands.

 Chapter 391

    "Kill


    "Kill the Huns!"


    "Xiongnu dog thief, here comes my grandfather."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, Huang Zhong''s army was full of Shouts. Even if it rained heavily, even if the ground was extremely muddy, even if the foot had been contaminated with loess, all the soldiers fought hard to get out.


    Han and Hun are not independent.


    For hundreds of years, both the Huns and the Hans wanted to kill each other whenever they had a chance.


    Even, completely annihilate the other side.


    Huang Zhong''s soldiers saw the opportunity and rushed forward one by one as fast as a hungry wolf.


    At the same time, there were countless Huns gathered here, where the Huns rest and stay. Every Hun had his own war horse, standing in the rain, enduring the heavy rain.


    Because the sand flat dam is surrounded by flat sand, there is no forest to rely on, there is no shelter from the rain, but they have to ambush here, so they can only bear the wind and rain.


    All the Huns lie on horseback in the open air.


    At this moment, the Hun soldiers are resting.


    It''s not that they don''t want to find a place to rest, but the heavy rain is falling, the rain is more and more urgent, and after the ground is muddy, they have no chance to leave at all, so they have to stay where they are.


    Among the Huns, the leader was named Wuwei.


    He is the confidant of Yu Fuluo and the commander of Yu Fuluo''s 10000 elite riders.


    In this war, Wuwei led his troops to live in Shapingba, waiting for Huang Zhong''s army to cross Shapingba, and then attacking Huang Zhong from the rear. But Wuwei didn''t expect that he hadn''t attacked yet. Huang Zhong had already touched the door.


    When Wuwei was awakened by the roar of killing from the sky, he looked up to the surrounding area and found that the Han Army had been killed. His eyes turned quickly, and he immediately ordered: "fight, everyone get off the horse to fight."


    Wuwei was also proficient in the art of war and knew that cavalry could not run. Once the soldiers run on horseback, the horse will not step steadily. If it is light, the horse''s leg will be broken. If it is heavy, the horse will fall to the ground directly.


    Only to dismount and defend the enemy.


    That''s the only way.


    After Wuwei gave the order, a horn sounded in the army, echoing in the ears of all the Huns. After hearing this, all the Huns turned over and dismounted, pulled out their machetes and prepared to resist the soldiers.


    After a short time, Huang Zhong''s soldiers rushed up. One by one, soldiers holding long guns, one by one close to the Huns, a long gun out, moring''s gun point flashing out.


    In a flash, the sharp point of the gun penetrated the Huns'' body.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A long spear pierced into the Hun''s body, bringing out a lot of blood. The red blood flowed out, splashed on the muddy ground and dyed the mud red.


    In a flash, it was washed away by the pouring rain, and there was no blood.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong is also carrying a knife, constantly killing the Huns in front of him.


    "If you are born a man, you should kill the Huns."


    "Boys, kill me!"


    Huang Zhong roared, his eyes full of fighting spirit. The long knife in his hand didn''t leave a hand at all, and the blade kept cutting off. The edge of the blade brings out a lot of blood.


    All the soldiers in the Huns could not resist.


    On the one hand, they are not used to walking.


    On the other hand, they have fewer troops.


    The two reasons combined, the Huns soldiers were killed and injured countless, completely unable to resist.


    When the two sides fought, they were defeated.


    Wuwei''s face was very dignified when he saw the soldier''s retrogression. As the chief General of the Huns, he was unwilling to retreat. He bit his teeth and ordered the soldiers to resist.


    Both sides are fighting in the mud. Although the Xiongnu soldiers did not have the advantage, they were still resisting.


    Time goes by.


    It''s getting brighter.


    The sky is still raining, but at this time, even if there is no torch, you can see clearly the situation on the battlefield. There are still flames burning around, but there are no soldiers to manage the torch thing, one by one are constantly fighting.


    Nowadays, the Huns have been killed and injured countless


    the soldiers under Huang Zhong''s command have also been killed and injured some of them, but in fact there are not many. Because most of the time, Huang Zhong''s soldiers fight with long guns. In the heavy rain, the point of the gun appears and disappears, so it is impossible to judge.


    The death and injury of the Huns are countless.


    Huang Zhong had been fighting, and he was also looking at the position of the Xiongnu general, looking for where the order came from.


    According to the current fighting situation, the Huns should have been defeated long ago.


    But the situation is still stable.


    It''s obvious that someone must be directing secretly, otherwise it won''t be.


    In the rush, Huang Zhong''s eyes brightened, and his eyes fell on Wu Wei not far away. He saw that Wuwei didn''t fight. He just kept directing. He was determined to kill Wuwei with a long knife.


    Huang Zhong is like a tiger.Wherever he went, all the Hun soldiers he resisted were killed. The distance with Wuwei is also getting closer.


    Ten feet!


    Eight feet!


    Six feet!


    When the distance between the two people is reduced to less than two Zhang, both sides can see each other clearly. Huang Zhong didn''t know that Wuwei was the big leader. He only knew that he wanted to kill the Huns to destroy their defense.


    At this time, Wuwei found Huang Zhong who was killed. He was a warrior among the Huns. He was good at riding and had great strength. Seeing Huang Zhong approaching, Wu Wei was delighted to see him. He arranged for people to resist the soldiers around him, so he killed them with a machete.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Wu Wei came to Huang Zhong.


    "Kill


    Wuwei drinks low, the machete in the hand, cuts directly.


    When the machete in Wuwei''s hand collided with Huang Zhong''s sabre, sparks were all over the place. Wuwei''s face changed slightly. He felt the great power from the blade and almost couldn''t hold the handle.


    He clenched his teeth, holding the handle of the knife in both hands and resisting the falling blade.


    "Kill


    Wu Wei drank and lifted Huang Zhong''s blade. Following closely, Wuwei steps forward, deceiving himself, intending to get close to Huang Zhong and kill him.


    It''s just how old Huang Zhong is. At the moment when Wuwei is near, he retreats step by step and swings his sword again.


    It''s a terrible knife.


    "Whew!"


    The sharp light of the knife reached Wuwei''s head in an instant. There was a cold color on Wu Wei''s face. He slightly deflected his body to avoid the knife and prepared to bear Huang Zhong''s knife with his shoulder.


    At the same time, the machete cuts out.


    As long as Wu Wei''s blade falls on Huang Zhong''s abdomen, it will be enough to break his stomach. At that time, even if he was injured in the shoulder, it would be cost-effective to trade the injury for his life.


    So Uwei didn''t retreat.


    "Chop!"


    Huang Zhong did not hide.


    The knife fell and cut it on Wuwei''s shoulder. The blade into the meat, as if cutting tofu in general, directly cut off Wuwei''s shoulder blade, but also continue to cut into Wuwei''s internal organs, and finally cut out from under the ribs.


    Wuwei was going to fight for his life, but when the blade cut his bone, severe pain came. Even if he wanted to bite his teeth, his strength was weak.


    Wuwei''s offensive, stop at once.


    Huang Zhong''s knife was as powerful as a bolt, and he cut it from under Wuwei''s left rib.


    "Poof!"


    The blood spattered, and Uwei''s body broke in two. Two corpses fell directly on the muddy ground, blood gurgling, extremely shocking.


    With a knife, Uwei is killed.


    Huang Zhong didn''t know the identity of Wuwei. After killing Wuwei, he continued to fight.

 Chapter 392

    For Huang Zhong, the killing of Wuwei was a small episode, which was insignificant. Huang Zhong is carrying a knife, and he is still killing. But the soldiers around him are very different now.


    More and more Hun cavalry found that Wuwei was killed. Many people yelled, and more and more people knew about the killing of Wuwei.


    Originally, although the Huns were in a weak position, they resisted very tenaciously, and they were still in the corner.


    After all, Wuwei is here!


    But when Wuwei died, all the Hun soldiers were flustered. They had no courage to resist and no will to fight. Many people kept running away. However, when the road was muddy, the Hun soldiers could not evacuate quickly. As soon as they turned around and retreated, they were killed by spears.


    More and more Huns were killed and injured.


    Huang Zhong found something wrong when he rushed with his soldiers.


    Because of the resistance of the Huns, it was much weaker.


    Huang Zhong didn''t have time to think about it. He had only one idea, that is, to kill the Huns who were still supporting him. More and more Huns were killed and wounded by Huang Zhong and his soldiers.


    "I surrender!"


    Among the Huns, there were soldiers shouting.


    "I surrender!"


    "Don''t kill me, I surrender!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, more and more Huns knelt on the muddy ground to surrender and no longer resisted.


    Huang Zhong turned a deaf ear and continued to kill.


    No mercy!


    Huang Zhong has no pity for the Huns. He won''t keep his hand.


    It''s not my race, it''s different.


    The Huns should be killed!


    Huang Zhong and his soldiers continued to cover up and kill. Even if the Huns knelt in the mud, they could kill them. At the beginning, a large number of Xiongnu soldiers surrendered, but in the twinkling of an eye, countless Xiongnu people found that even if they surrendered, they could not save their lives, so they simply carried on fighting with a long knife to fight to the end.


    But after Wuwei''s death, the Huns were gone.


    They can''t come and go like the wind on the battlefield without their proud horses. On the muddy road, it can only be reduced to fish on the chopping board and allowed to be slaughtered by Huang Zhong''s soldiers.


    There are more and more deaths and injuries.


    The day was bright, and the fighting lasted from morning to noon.


    The torrential rain has stopped.


    The sky is clear and a red sun is high. Although there is a sun high in the sky, the sun in October shines on people without any blazing heat. On the contrary, it is warm.


    Around the ground, a body fell in the mud.


    The blood has already dyed the ground red. Even if there was a torrential rain before, there was too much killing. So that today''s ground, already full of blood, as if by the blood are soaked again.


    Looking at this scene, Huang Zhong smoothed the bun that fell down on his forehead. His face showed a happy look, and he said in a loud voice: "sons, we have won. We killed all the Huns. I''m proud of you. "


    "Wansheng!"


    "Wansheng!"


    Countless soldiers, shouting.


    The fighting spirit of the soldiers in the army is even more high at this moment. Their faces are full of smiles and pride.


    They killed all the Huns.


    They are heroes!


    Huang Zhong waited for the cry to stop before he ordered: "clean up the battlefield!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers all answered, move quickly.


    Huang Zhong arranged to clean up the battlefield, and arranged for soldiers to search for horses. Last night in the last World War, many of the Hun''s horses were scattered and many of them stayed in the same place.


    War horses are resources.


    It is impossible for Huang Zhong to abandon these horses. He must collect them. In addition, Huang Zhong arranged for the soldiers to go to Wenxian first and tell Zhang Xiu the news of the victory.


    When Huang Zhong was cleaning up the battlefield, the cavalry of Langya camp led by Zhang Xiu was close to Wenxian ten li away. The heavy rain last night was also a great test for Zhang Xiu and his cavalry.


    You can''t ride a horse if you have three thousand horses.


    Three thousand soldiers dismounted and led their horses on their way.


    One night later, Zhang Xiu''s army was close to Wen County. At noon, the ground began to dry due to the transpiration of water vapor. The people led by Zhang Xiu arrived near Wenxian and hid for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu and a few soldiers, near the east gate of Wenxian County, looked at a highland in the distance.


    Instead of attacking immediately, he looked at the battlefield in secret.


    From a distance, the Hun infantry are constantly attacking the city.


    Wenxian garrison is actively resisting.


    But Wenxian''s troops were limited, and the Huns could be seen on the tower at any time. Then the soldiers guarding the city quickly killed all the people and kept fighting on the tower.


    The situation is very stalemate.Generally speaking, the Huns had the upper hand. The army guarding the city was in danger and in trouble.


    Zhang Xiu sees all this in her eyes and thinks about coping strategies.


    He can send troops immediately.


    It''s just that although the sky is clear now, in fact, the hardness of the ground is not enough. In the bright sun, if you wait for half a day, the opposite side will be harder, and the horses can run like the wind.


    This is the best form.


    Especially last night, all the soldiers stayed up all night and did not rest from the beginning to the end, which is a great burden for the soldiers in the army,


    the soldiers also need time to adjust their state.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the war situation, seeing that although the city''s defense was chaotic, it was still steadily resisting and not falling. He was also slightly relieved.


    For the time being, Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to send troops.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the development of the war outside the city. With the passage of time, he sees that the defense on the city floor is in danger several times. He can''t help but prepare to fight several times, but he endures it in the end.


    Because Sima Lang held it.


    Towards evening, it was getting late and the sun was setting.


    At this time, the Huns were still attacking and did not intend to stop. Torches burn, dispelling the coming darkness, drums rumble, horns sound.


    Countless Huns yelled and attacked quickly.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu had found the position of the Huns'' central army.


    He''s ready to do it.


    After half a day''s rest, the soldiers of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu recovered their spirits. One by one, especially the surface water trace, has completely dried up, and the soldiers can ride on horseback to sprint on the flat ground.


    Zhang Xiu returned to the army and ordered to send troops.


    "Kill


    One by one soldiers, shouting.


    The cavalry of Langya camp launched a charge. The hoofs of the horses trampled on the ground and quickly killed them.


    When Zhang Xiu killed, the defense on the east gate of Wenxian county was in danger. Today, Sima Lang is under great pressure. Yesterday, he still had enough strength to resist, leaving some soldiers as reserve forces, who could rush to the defense of the city tower at any time.


    After a day of fighting, all the strength is exhausted.


    There''s no more backup.


    The soldiers guarding the city fell into fatigue, and more and more Huns began to kill the city tower.


    Sima Lang looked up at the distance, and his face was very nervous.


    Not yet!


    Reinforcements haven''t come yet!


    He''s done his best!


    He has given all his strength. After the fighting in recent days, all the private soldiers of his family have been put into the battlefield, with countless casualties. Under this premise, Sima Lang''s all strength has been exhausted.


    Sima Lang clenched his fist, his mouth slowly opened, ready to order retreat. He is ready to withdraw to the front line of Sima''s family, and then use the strength of the city to defend.


    But when Sima Lang opened his mouth, suddenly his pupils shrank.


    Boom!!


    In the distance outside the city, the sound of horse''s hooves suddenly came, and the smoke was flying. A big flag flutters in the wind. A cavalry, as if from the sky, suddenly entered the battlefield.


    This army went straight to the Huns'' central army.


    "Kill the Huns!"


    The uniform sound reverberates in the air.


    "Kill the Huns!"


    "Kill the Huns!"


    ¡­¡­


    Wave after wave of shouts rang out, the voice constantly reverberated in the air, the momentum was appalling. Powerful voice, clear into the ears of every Hun soldier. Although the Huns could not understand the voice, they could feel the power contained in it.


    "Reinforcements are here, our reinforcements are here."


    Sima Lang let out a cry.


    There was endless joy and excitement in his voice.


    It''s time!


    Finally, it''s time for reinforcements.


    "Reinforcements are here!"


    "Our reinforcements are here!"


    "Kill the enemy!"


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts came from the mouth of the soldiers in the city. At first, the morale of the soldiers declined and they were in a state of panic. But when they saw the reinforcements coming, they were all like chicken blood.


    Totally excited.

 Chapter 393

    Yu Fuluo has been in the Central Plains for many years, and he has been able to understand Chinese for a long time. Because he was unwell, he was sitting on the chariot. When he was unwell, he could recline.


    After all, he is in his twilight years.


    It rained all night last night, and the temperature dropped a lot. Yu Fuluo felt a chill. This morning, Yu Fuluo had another Cape to protect himself from the cold.


    In order to win Wen County, Yu Fuluo has invested 8000 Huns to attack the city. The 8000 soldiers went in and fought until night, with countless casualties. As more and more people boarded the city tower, Yu Fuluo''s face also looked forward to it.


    When he was about to break the city, suddenly, Yu Fuluo heard the roar of the rear. He suddenly stood up and looked back. There was a cavalry fighting in his rear.


    Liu Bao is also on the side.


    When he heard the cry from behind, he also looked back. When Liu Bao saw the cavalry killed in the rear, Liu Bao shivered and panicked.


    He had no cavalry around him.


    There are only two thousand infantry left that have not yet been sent to the battlefield. Can this be resisted?


    Liu Bao was stunned, but Yu Fuluo didn''t. After all, Yu Fuluo was used to the strong winds and waves. When he saw the killed cavalry, he didn''t hesitate. He ordered: "Liu Bao, mobilize 2000 elite soldiers and set up a square array to block!"


    Liu Bao wanted to refute at the moment. All his soldiers use knives. Is square array useful?


    But when it comes to my mouth, I swallow it immediately.


    Because there''s no choice.


    Liu Bao no longer commands the attacking soldiers. He turns over to mount the horse and gives a quick order. The 2000 infantry under his command soon became a square array and crossed the official road.


    "Hold on, be sure to hold on!"


    Liu Bao tried his best to roar, but when he saw the cavalry coming, he was also afraid to beat the drum. As a nomad on the grassland, Liu Bao knew the strength of cavalry.


    The cavalry rushed into the battle, fierce and overbearing.


    It''s extremely hard to resist.


    Now all his troops are infantry. In a hurry, they can''t resist at all. They can only resist with limited strength.


    Zhang Xiu led the cavalry to charge quickly.


    "Boom!"


    The sound of horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, making the ground tremble. When Zhang Xiu took the lead and took the soldiers to sprint, she got closer and closer to the Huns.


    A hundred steps!


    Eighty steps!


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was sixty steps.


    When the distance was reduced to 60 steps, Zhang Xiu ordered: "short gun, projection!"


    At his command, 3000 soldiers galloping their horses took out a shotgun and threw it directly. Three thousand short guns swept an arc in the air and fell into Liu Bao''s army.


    Liu Bao felt numb and roared: "block, block quickly!"


    Liu Bao''s chopping gun is also in a hurry. But the rest of the soldiers did not have Liu Bao''s martial arts, many soldiers died on the spot under the short gun.


    More soldiers, seriously injured.


    The square array was in a mess.


    But in the blink of an eye, the cavalry led by Zhang Xiu was less than 20 steps away from the Huns. The cavalry of three thousand Langya battalion quickly spread out and rushed forward, encircling all the Huns.


    Zhang Xiu rushed forward with a Bawang gun. When he was less than ten steps away from the Huns, he suddenly saw Liu Bao at the front.


    Liu Bao, hun!


    This is the eldest son of Yu Fuluo and the ancestor of Xiongnu, one of the Wuhu in the Central Plains.


    Zhang Xiu knew Liu Bao.


    In the first world, Zhang Xiu was obedient to Cao Cao, and Liu Bao was also the same. It was because Fuluo lost to Cao Cao after his death, and finally he was obedient to Cao Cao. However, Zhang Xiu only knew Liu Bao, knew this person, and Liu Bao did not have any intersection.


    At that time, Zhang Xiu had no impression of Liu Bao. After all, there was no dispute between the two sides. Through later generations, Zhang Xiu learned about Liu Bao through historical books.


    Liu Bao is the father of Liu Yuan, a Hun. Liu Yuan is the earliest one of the sixteen Wuhu schools.


    Zhang Xiu''s heartfelt hatred for the five disordered Central Plains. When Wuhu ravaged the Central Plains, the Han people were reduced to two legged sheep and had no power to resist in front of the Hu people.


    Han people in the north, in particular, can only be slaughtered and have no living space.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention of killing rose at once.


    Between the electric light and flint, Zhang Xiu has reached the front of Liu Bao with the overlord gun.


    Liu Bao did not escape. He raised his machete and cut it out. In the moment of Liu Bao''s hand, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun stabs out, and the sharp spear falls on the machete.


    "Dang!"


    At the moment when the sound of impact sounded, the machete vibrated, and Liu Bao''s face changed slightly.


    But Zhang Xiu kept pressing her hand step by step, and the overlord''s gun swung up and down again.


    There''s no fancy moves, just hard hitting.


    Move, move, move, move.The overlord''s gun fell through the air with a terrible momentum.


    Liu Bao holds the knife to block it. When the machete collides with the overlord gun again, under the impact of the vast force, Liu Bao holds the hand of the machete, and the tiger''s mouth tears immediately, and the machete falls down.


    The overlord''s gun is so powerful that it continues to fall.


    "Bang!"


    When the overlord gun fell, it hit Liu Bao''s shoulder.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Liu Bao''s mouth. Liu Bao''s right shoulder, bone completely broken, flesh and blood emerge, the powerful impact of the overlord gun, so that the ribs are pierced into the body.


    Liu Bao''s internal organs are completely broken.


    Liu Bao vomited blood and fell to the ground. Zhang Xiu''s eyes are awe inspiring, and a shot makes Liu Bao spit blood, but it doesn''t stop. The moment the overlord''s gun is taken back, it stabs out again.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into Liu Bao''s heart.


    Originally, Liu Bao''s ribs were introduced into the internal organs and the internal organs were broken under Zhang Xiu''s shot. It seemed that she would not have survived. But Zhang Xiu made up another shot. After the tip of the gun penetrated Liu Bao''s heart, Liu Bao died.


    After Zhang Xiu killed Liu Bao, she led the cavalry to continue to fight.


    When Liu Bao was killed, the Xiongnu people lost their heart and soul. They were all in a panic. At this moment, the original formation was completely disordered, and there was no more formation.


    Two thousand Huns were slaughtered by the cavalry of Langya camp.


    The news that Liu Bao was killed also spread quickly. When the news reached Fuluo''s ears, Yu Fuluo''s face turned red with anger and his chest went up and down.


    "Poof!"


    A mouthful of red blood came from Fuluo''s mouth.


    Yu Fuluo''s breath is even more dispirited.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Yufuluo knew that this battle had been defeated, his son had been killed, and his infantry could not stop the cavalry. Especially after several days of siege, too many soldiers were killed and wounded. Even if we kill the castle now, our combat effectiveness has been weakened and we can no longer stand on it.


    In the face of the cavalry who had been killed suddenly, the square array broke up and was completely unstoppable.


    Yu Fuluo ordered to withdraw. One by one, his bodyguards were carrying chariots, and they were ready to withdraw from the battlefield. Just when Fuluo is about to retreat, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on the position of Fuluo.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t know Fuluo.


    At one time, when Liu Bao surrendered to Cao Cao, Yu Fuluo had already died.


    Even if they don''t know each other, it doesn''t prevent Zhang Xiu from recognizing that she came from Fuluo. According to his age and appearance, as well as Yu Fuluo''s clothes and the guards around him, he can judge.


    Without any hesitation, Zhang Xiu shakes the reins of the horse and pursues the wind quickly.

 Chapter 394

    Zhang Xiu''s pursuit of the wind is incomparable.


    Although the snow-white hooves trampled on the ground, stained with mud, but still did not affect the spirit of the wind Jun. He threw off his four hooves and ran wildly. In a short time, he reached the position where Yu Fuluo was.


    "Kill


    Yu Fuluo''s personal guards are coming to kill him. They want to kill and pursue the wind with their swords.


    "Herod


    After the tuyere hissing, suddenly after the hoof raised, directly on the pedal.


    "Pa!"


    The huge horseshoe was kicked on the Hun soldiers. In a flash, Xiongnu Pro guard broke his sternum, flew out and fell to the ground. The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is also stabbed out one after another. With the continuous flashing of the overlord gun in the air and the splashing of blood, all the Xiongnu guards were killed.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu killed Yu Fuluo.


    The overlord''s gun swept across and hit a Hun soldier carrying a chariot. With a bang, the soldier fell to the ground. But the chariot lost his balance, and Yu Fuluo fell to the ground directly. His whole body was in great pain.


    The soldier wanted to help him, but Yu Fuluo seemed to shine back. His face was ruddy and he stood up. He drew his sword from his waist and roared, "kill


    He held the knife not to retreat but to advance, and killed Zhang Xiu.


    He knew he couldn''t escape.


    He knew better that he was the great Danyu of Xiongnu.


    He has his own dignity.


    Yu Fuluo quickly rushed out with his knife, and his bodyguard rushed in front of him.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord''s gun sweeps across. Where the big gun passes, all the Huns'' guards fall to the ground, unable to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. Zhang Xiu defeated the Xiongnu''s guards and drove his horse forward again.


    Although Yu Fuluo came to kill, the machete in his hand was too short after all. He was not close to chasing the wind. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun came out first and penetrated through Fuluo''s body.


    The sharp point of the gun passed through Fuluo''s chest.


    Straight through the chest!


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed from Fuluo''s chest. Yu Fuluo''s weak body struggles twice and stares at his big eyes. The next moment, his head drops and he loses his breath completely.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu drinks low and looks cold. He rushes forward again.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s supremacy, the overlord gun points to the air, while Yu Fuluo''s body is firmly hanging on the overlord gun. Drop by drop of blood flows from the body of Fuluo.


    This scene is shocking.


    Yufro is dead.


    Zhang Xiu announced the death of Yu Fuluo.


    For the Huns, Liu Bao died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, and Yu Fuluo died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. And the king of them was slain, and there was no one to lead them to the slaughter.


    The Xiongnu people kept fleeing, and a large number of Xiongnu people asked to surrender, but Zhang Xiu''s cavalry of Langya camp did not stop at all, and their swords kept cutting off.


    With a splash of blood, countless Huns died in the fall of the cavalry of Langya camp.


    Creak!


    The gate of Wenxian is open.


    Sima Lang took the soldiers from the city and killed them. Not long after, Sima Lang''s soldiers joined Zhang Xiu''s cavalry and began to kill the Huns.


    No matter Zhang Xiu or Sima Lang, they never mentioned the matter of surrender.


    It''s just a killing.


    The fighting on the battlefield lasted for more than an hour, and finally ended. There was no Xiongnu on the battlefield.


    All the Huns were killed.


    Zhang Xiu ordered his cavalry to clean up the battlefield and count their own losses. Sima Lang also asked his subordinates to help him deal with it, and he came to Zhang Xiu.


    Sima Lang didn''t know Zhang Xiu, so he said: "I''m Sima Lang, thank you for your help. Dare to ask general, but general Chen of Langya camp


    Sima Lang knew the structure of Zhang Xiu''s officials.


    Huang Zhong is a middle-aged man in his early 40s. He is powerful and good at using a long knife.


    Although Gan Ning, the fierce tiger army, was a young man, he also used a knife.


    Only Chen Dao of Langya camp, a young man in his early twenties, used a long gun.


    Sima Lang didn''t think about Zhang Xiu, because in Sima Lang''s view, Zhang Xiu is the commander of the first army after all. It''s impossible for him to come out in person. The most likely thing is Chen Lai.


    Therefore, Sima Lang asked directly.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this will be Zhang Xiu!"


    Sima Lang was shocked when he heard Zhang Xiu''s name. He never thought that it was Zhang Xiu.


    You know, Zhang Xiu is the coach!


    Zhang Xiu did it in person.


    Sima Lang was surprised and grateful. After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu was able to personally lead 3000 elite riders to Wenxian County for help. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu attached great importance to the Huns in Wenxian County, as well as to his Sima family.


    Sima Lang folded his hands, bowed his hands again, and said: "Sima Lang''s great kindness is in his heart. Sima Lang, on behalf of thousands of people in Wen County, thanks to General Zhang. "Zhang xiudao said: "for this general, it''s a small lift. In this way, the crisis in Wenxian was solved in time. Otherwise, the Huns will be killed in Wen County, and the people will be miserable. "


    Sima Lang said, "what the general said is true."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "I heard that Mr. Sima had been an official before, but he went home to recuperate because of his discomfort. Now look at my husband''s health, he is very well. I don''t know. Is Mr. Sima willing to serve under the general? "


    Zhang Xiu appreciates Sima Lang.


    Although Sima Lang did not make much achievements in military affairs, he was outstanding in government affairs. What''s more, with Sima Lang''s surrender, the rest, such as Sima Yi and Sima Fu, are likely to be under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Sima''s family will probably work for Zhang Xiu.


    For Sima Yi, Zhang Xiu is not on guard, because the times make heroes. Today''s Sima Yi is just a young man who has not seen any waves or experienced any ups and downs. She can''t be Sima Yi in history.


    Different life, will create different results.


    And Zhang Xiu has enough confidence to control Sima''s family and Sima Yi.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Sima Lang Leng next, did not expect Zhang Xiu so direct.


    To speak is to solicit.


    Of course, this is also Zhang Xiu''s courteous and virtuous corporal, and also Zhang Xiu''s esteem for him.


    In Sima Lang''s heart, however, he had some worries.


    Seeing Sima Lang''s hesitation, Zhang Xiu asked, "what are Mr. Sima''s concerns?"


    Sima Lang replied: "my father is in Xudu. Once I submit to General Zhang, I''m afraid my father''s situation will be bad."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "under the command of Cao Cao, there are such talented people as Xun you and Xun Yu, but there are also Xun Yu and others in the Xun family who work under the command of Yuan Shao. It''s very normal for people in the family to serve the Lord respectively. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Cao Cao is a very wise man. He can''t do anything to your father. Otherwise, it can only make Sima family resent Cao Cao. Mr. Sima, what do you think? "


    Sima Lang said, "what the general said is true."


    Sima Lang didn''t despise Zhang Xiu. He didn''t think that Zhang Xiu was born as a martial artist.


    Zhang Xiu has come to this day step by step.


    No one can pick out a thorn in Zhang Xiu''s resume.


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu killed Hu Chuquan, killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and now killed Fu Luo. It can be said that Zhang Xiu has made great contributions to the country and the whole Han Dynasty.


    Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu has made great achievements.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu has rice paper as a sharp weapon. Today, Zhang Xiu''s heritage is no less than that of any princes. The only difference between Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao is the territory she occupies.


    But it''s not hard.


    Especially after Zhang Xiu occupied Guanzhong, he had a foothold and was already a vassal.


    It''s not bad to submit to Zhang Xiu.


    Moreover, Zhang Xiu has just rescued Wen County and Sima family. When Sima Lang sent a messenger to Heyang County, he didn''t have much hope. But Zhang Xiu agreed to help, and he came to help himself. Sima Lang had a good impression of Zhang Xiu.


    What else can Sima Lang say about Zhang Xiu''s personal solicitation?


    After Sima Lang was determined, he closed his hands and said, "Sima Lang, I''d like to work for general Zhang."


    "See you, Sima Lang!"


    At this point, Sima Lang bowed to the end, saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully, and really worshipped Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 395

    Zhang Xiu reached out to support Sima Lang with a happy look and said, "Boda is obedient. There is another talent under the general. It would be easier to govern a place with burdah. "


    Sima Lang''s heart moved.


    He heard Zhang Xiu''s words, clearly is to let him govern the place.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "now Hongnong County, which will be controlled by the government, is short of the post of prefect. After the end of the war in isothermal County, Boda went to Hongnong county to take charge of Hongnong county. What do you think? "


    Brush!


    Sima Lang looked excited.


    For Sima Lang, he had served as the magistrate of a lower County before. The territory was poor and the people were scarce. He resigned because he was ill, so he came home to cultivate himself.


    According to Sima Lang''s age, it is impossible to be the prefect of a county. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to be a prefect without years of experience.


    But here in Zhang Xiu, he is directly the prefect of Hongnong county.


    Being the prefect of a county is a test and an opportunity for Sima Lang.


    Even if Yuan Shu appointed Sima Lang as the governor of a state, Sima Lang would not be appointed. Because Yuan Shu is unstable and unreliable.


    Zhang Xiu is different here.


    Every step of Zhang Xiu is extremely steady.


    Zhang xiuxi refused Han Sui in the west, defeated Cao Cao in the East, and resisted and publicized in the north. Now she has won the Guanzhong area with a very solid foundation.


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, I don''t worry about the precarious situation. So Sima Lang was very excited that he could be the prefect of a county. In fact, if it was not for the lack of talents under Zhang Xiu''s command, it would be impossible for Sima Lang to be the prefect of a county.


    "Lord Ma took a deep breath of emotion. Three years, within three years, the humble position will make Hongnong County prosperous. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will give you three years!"


    "Thank you


    Sima Lang''s face was full of gratitude.


    A scholar dies for a bosom friend!


    He can work for Zhang Xiu and get the respect of Zhang Xiu. Sima Lang should be loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    Suddenly, Sima Lang said: "Lord, because my father works in Xudu, I am the oldest in my family, and I am in charge of everything in my family. This time I''m going to Hongnong county. I don''t have time to teach my younger brothers and discipline them. "


    "So I beg all of you to go to Chang''an."


    "On the one hand, it is good for them to broaden their horizons and see the world. On the other hand, it is also to let them not have to stay in Wenxian and avoid danger in Wenxian. "


    Sima Lang made a request.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart. Sima Lang intentionally moved the whole family. He specially sent his disciples to Chang''an to make Zhang Xiu feel at ease. Of course, there are also reasons mentioned by Sima Lang just now.


    All of these reasons, together, prompted Sima Lang to move his family''s children to Chang''an.


    Sima Lang is not worried about his brother.


    Because he is devoted to his duty in Hongnong County, Zhang Xiu will certainly do her best to take care of him.


    This is determined by Sima Lang.


    Zhang Xiu moved in her heart and said: "I remember Sima Zhongda, Boda''s second younger brother, who is not small now. When it comes to age, it''s almost seventeen or eighteen, right? "


    "Yes


    Sima Lang nodded.


    At this moment, Sima Lang had some doubts.


    What does Zhang Xiu ask the second younger brother to do?


    Sima Lang knew that his second younger brother was intelligent and had a good command of military strategy. However, Sima Yi was cautious in nature, spared herself in doing things, and thought too much about herself.


    Sima Lang once mentioned this point, but did not say much.


    His brother, he has his own way.


    What Sima Lang can manage is not to let the brothers go astray and do evil.


    Zhang Xiu explained: "Pang Tong in our army is one of the most important counselors I rely on. Although Pang Tong was plain in appearance and rebellious in temperament, he was outstanding in ability and had gone through countless wars


    "In terms of age, it is equivalent to Zhongda."


    "At the age of Zhongda, Pang Tong gained countless experiences."


    "In the same way, I hope Zhongda can get more experience and become a talent who benefits the country and the people. I can take Zhongda with me and ask him to join me as a counselor of military affairs. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "although we can''t give him heavy responsibilities, at least we can let him experience earlier. What do you think of it?"


    Zhang Xiu put forward the idea.


    As the saying goes, Sima Lang is willing to move his family to Chang''an.


    So he took Sima Yi with him.


    Most importantly, it also helped Zhang Xiu cultivate Sima Yi.


    It''s killing two birds with one stone.


    As soon as Sima Lang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was also happy for Sima Yi. He doesn''t doubt Zhang Xiu''s intention, because Sima''s family doesn''t have what Zhang Xiu wants to plan, and it''s not worth Zhang Xiu''s attitude.The only reason is that Zhang Xiu really values Sima family and is willing to cultivate Sima Yi.


    Without any hesitation, Sima Lang immediately said, "the Lord''s heart is accepted for Zhongda. Zhongda''s affairs will be arranged when he comes home from his humble post. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is of great benefit for her future development to recruit Sima Yi in advance.


    Taking Sima''s family in one pot will bring more talents.


    Pang Tong, Sima Yi and others were all heroes of the time. These people together, enough to ensure the prosperity of this system. Because among the older generation are Jia Xu, Li Ru, Liu Ba and Xu Shu.


    The youngest are Pang Tong, Sima Yi and others.


    Such a talent structure, at least to ensure that Zhang Xiu in the next 30 years, there is no lack of top talent.


    It can form a virtuous circle.


    At this time, the private soldiers of the Sima family came and reported: "eldest son, the loss of the warriors in the clan has been counted. In this war, our Sima family took part in 2000 people''s battles, killed 1678 people, seriously injured 115 people and slightly injured 207 people. "


    Sima Lang felt sad when he heard the speech.


    The damage is too great.


    The seriously injured are almost useless.


    Zhang Xiu took the words and said decisively: "the pension and reward of Sima''s private soldiers are in the charge of our army. The Sima family was devoted to the people and the country. They would have arranged for people to inform the thousands of people in Wenxian County, so that the people would know, and the hero would not die in obscurity. "


    Sima Lang''s face showed gratitude and said, "Lord long en, Sima''s family is very grateful."


    Zhang xiudao said: "a hero should be treated as a hero. I was born in martial arts, and I know it''s not easy to be a martial arts man. What I can do is not let the martial arts be covered with dust. "


    Sima Lang solemnly said, "thank you, Lord."


    After a pause, Sima Lang said, "I''ll go home first, deal with my family affairs, and then I''ll meet my Lord."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Sima Lang leaves with the injured private soldiers of Sima family. At this time, Zhang Xiu''s side also has a small school to return.


    Xiao Xiao came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "general, we lost 86 people in this battle. Although some soldiers were slightly injured, there was no overall impact."


    "In this war, we nearly wiped out all the Huns. In addition to the Huns who had been attacked and lost before, we killed more than 4000 Huns. "


    The school is very excited, said: "the real escape of the Huns, no more than 100 people."


    Zhang Xiu said, "good job!"


    Xiaoxiao said again: "in addition, the general killed Da Dan Yu Fuluo of Xiongnu and Liu Bao, Yu Fuluo''s son. Both of them died in the hands of the general. "


    After a pause, the school said, "now there are nearly ten thousand Hun corpses outside Wenxian. Are these bodies cremated or buried? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she said, "don''t cremate or bury, build the Beijing temple."


    Zhujing temple is to pile up the Hun''s corpses on both sides of the road, cover the soil and tamp it to form a pyramid like mound, to punish the enemies who invade and to comfort the dead spirits.


    The school was shocked by the speech.


    There was a look of joy on his face and he arranged it immediately.


    Not long after that, the news that Zhang Xiu wanted to build the Hun''s corpse into the capital was thoroughly spread throughout the army. All the soldiers cheered when they heard the speech, because it was a great encouragement to the soldiers who were defending Wenxian.


    It''s also the biggest mourning for the dead.

 Chapter 396

    It was getting late and night was falling.


    In the sky, the waning moon is hanging high. The cold moonlight came down, making the night hazy.


    Sima family, in the mansion.


    When Sima Lang limped back to the house with his private soldiers, Sima Lang announced the reward for his family''s private soldiers. After that, Sima Lang said: "in addition to the family''s reward and pension, general Zhang also said that he would reward his merits according to the military''s pension and reward, and there will be your reward."


    When they heard the speech, they were all excited.


    There were smiles on their faces.


    Those who survive are happy because they have more benefits.


    After Sima Lang arranged for private soldiers, he went straight back to his study. As soon as he entered, Sima Yi and Sima Fu followed closely. The difference between Sima Yi and Sima Fu was not much, they were less than 20 years old.


    Sima Yi asked in a deep voice: "brother, in order to resist the Huns, our family has lost more than 1000 people, which is a huge loss. I don''t know. Does Zhang Xiu have a pension and reward for those who died in the war in our family? "


    "Yes!"


    Sima Lang nodded and said, "soldiers who died in the war shall be compensated according to the regulations of the army. Those who survive will also be rewarded, and will not be buried by any meritorious person. This matter is already in progress. "


    Sima Yi said, "that''s good!"


    Sima Lang changed his words and said, "now I''ve decided to become an official."


    "Ah


    When Sima Yi heard this, she was shocked. She didn''t expect that Sima Lang was going to be an official all of a sudden. His heart read to turn, immediately understand come over, ask a way: "elder brother, is Zhang Xiu solicit you?"


    "Yes


    With a smile on his face, Sima Lang said, "my Lord has invited me. I agree."


    Sima Yi said, "what''s your position?"


    Sima Lang replied, "the prefect of Hongnong County!"


    "Hiss!"


    Sima Yi took a cold breath when she heard the speech, and she was very surprised. In Sima Yi''s opinion, even if Zhang Xiu takes a fancy to Sima Lang and wants to entrust him with important tasks, she should not be directly appointed as a prefect.


    Most likely, Sima Lang will be promoted step by step from the county magistrate. But Zhang Xiu directly appointed Sima Lang as the prefect of Hongnong County, which was unexpected.


    It is also a great respect for Sima Lang.


    He is also a courteous corporal of Zhang Xiu.


    After thinking about it, Sima Yi said, "I know the talent of my elder brother. It''s more than enough to be a prefect. Does Zhang Xiu know his elder brother? I''m afraid it''s to stabilize my elder brother that I''m directly appointed as the prefect of a county. "


    Sima Lang snorted and said, "second brother, this is your nature. Think about things, get used to thinking about the worst. People are used to thinking about other people''s thoughts. But in fact, what am I worth planning? What''s the point of stabilizing me, my lord? "


    After thinking about it, Sima Yi gave a dumb smile and said, "it''s true."


    The power of Sima''s family is not worth Zhang Xiu''s efforts. After all, the Sima family is not the yuan family of Runan, nor the Xun family of Yingchuan, nor the Yang family of Hongnong, which is far from comparable with these big families.


    Even if Sima family has considerable strength, it is only limited to Wenxian.


    There is no greater influence.


    Even their father Sima Fang, though he is now an official in the court, is also Qingliu and has no real power in his hands. Compared with the rest of the family, their Sima family is insufficient.


    Sima Lang continued: "Hongnong county is a very important place. As the governor of Hongnong County, once I make achievements, it is not impossible for me to become a prime minister in the future. The most important thing is that with his father''s current resume, he is an official, and the top heaven is the prefect of a county. At this age, I can''t achieve my father''s achievements. What else can I hesitate about? "


    Sima Yi said, "what my brother said is true."


    Sima Lang continued: "besides, I have already told the Lord. Next, the Sima family will move to Chang''an. Just leave some people to guard the old house of Sima''s family. "


    "Ah


    Sima Yi exclaimed.


    Rao was a young and mature man, but when he heard Sima Lang''s words, he couldn''t help saying: "brother, if you move Sima''s family to Chang''an, you''re putting everything of Sima''s family on Zhang Xiu. Is he worth it? "


    Sima Lang said, "second brother, you have your own judgment. What do you think?"


    Sima Yi stopped talking.


    From today''s situation, Zhang Xiu wins every battle, constantly wins, constantly expands the territory, Zhang Xiu is really powerful, he also thinks that Zhang Xiu has a bright future.


    He just wanted to move his family to Chang''an, but he still had some conflict in mind.


    Pang Long County, although you continue to know a lot of news


    "I know!"


    Sima Yi said: "according to the information, after Zhang Xiu opened her office, she set up six departments to take charge of various matters. Under the command of Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong served as Minister of rites. Although the responsibilities of the Ministry of officials are lighter, they are also a very important part. "Sima Lang said: "today''s Pang Tong is as old as you."


    Brush!


    Sima Yi''s face turned red.


    He did not expect that Sima Lang would say such a thing.


    Sima Lang continued: "about you, the Lord has made arrangements. The Lord is willing to take you, let you along with him to counselor military affairs, experience some. Zhongda, this is your chance. "


    Sima Yi said bitterly, "brother, you won''t agree."


    "Yes


    "I agree," said Sima


    "Alas..."


    Sima Yi sighed: "brother, you are not tired to worry about this and that. You have just solved the crisis in Wenxian, and you have not finished all the things in your hands. You have made a decision for me. Now, I don''t want to be an official for the time being. "


    Sima Lang scolded: "it''s for your sake to do this for my brother. Now, you are nearly twenty. My Lord is willing to give you a chance. That''s your chance. Do you really think that anyone will be attracted by the Lord? "


    In front of Sima Lang, Sima Yi has no confidence.


    He was a little afraid of Sima Lang.


    On the contrary, Sima Yi was not afraid of his father Sima Fang.


    Since childhood, he and his brothers were brought up by Sima Lang, who took care of him. For Sima Yi, Sima Lang was like a brother and a father, so Sima Yi opened her mouth, but swallowed what she said.


    Sima Lang couldn''t see Sima Yi''s appearance. He raised his eyebrows and yelled, "in a word, go or not?"


    "Go, I''ll go!"


    Sima Yi answered bitterly.


    Sima Lang snorted and said, "since you are going, you should do well. When you go outside, you represent the Sima family. Your every move represents the face of the Sima family. Is that clear? "


    "I understand!"


    Sima Yi answered immediately.


    Sima Lang''s eyes fell on Sima Fu and said in a deep voice, "third brother, although you are still young, you have a steady temperament. Compared with other brothers, you are the boss when Zhongda and I are not at home. Now, you have to take on the responsibility of your brother. "


    Sima Fu, with a solemn expression, replied, "don''t worry, brother. I understand."


    "Just understand."


    Sima Lang was very satisfied with Sima Fu''s attitude, because compared with Sima Yi, Sima Fu was magnanimous, steady and obedient.


    Sima Lang said: "when my family moves to Chang''an, I will write a letter and send it to my father in Xudu to let him know. When my father left Wenxian County, I said that the matter at home has the final say. I expect my father will support my decision. "


    Sima Yi said: "even if we don''t support it, what can we do? It''s all about to move to Chang''an, and it''s no use. Now it''s spilled water, and I can''t take it back. "


    "What did you say?"


    Sima Lang stares at Sima Yi.


    He just can''t get used to Sima Yi''s attitude. He looks like a fool and is not calm. When it''s time to be calm, it''s not very calm. When it''s not supposed to be steady, it''s as steady as a mountain.


    Sima Yi said with a smile, "nothing. I didn''t say anything. Elder brother, since the matter is settled, I will go to prepare for it, and then I can meet Zhang Xiu. "


    "Go down!"


    Sima Lang nodded.


    Sima Yi nodded to Sima Fu, motioned him to ask for more blessings and left first.


    Sima Lang was not so strict with Sima Fu. He told him what to pay attention to, so he let Sima Fu go down and began to deal with his own affairs.


    If he wants to become an official, he has to arrange all kinds of things before he becomes an official.

 Chapter 397

    The next day, early in the morning.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu had finished her breakfast, Wang Yue rushed to the camp and reported, "great joy, great joy


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the happy event?"


    Wang Yue handed over a letter and reported: "just now, I received a letter from General Huang. General Huang completely annihilated the Hun cavalry and won a great victory. He is on his way to Wenxian. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t help cheering.


    He quickly opened the letter and read the war report sent by Huang Zhong.


    In the letter, Huang Zhong elaborated on Yang Xiu''s recognition of celestial phenomena and suggested catching up overnight. Because of Yang Xiu''s suggestion, Huang Zhong chased the Huns all night. It happened that the heavy rain made the horses unable to run, so that they could wipe out the Huns completely.


    "Good, good Yang Xiu!"


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and handed it to Wang Yue for reading.


    Now that Huang Zhong has won, Zhang Xiu can go all out to deal with Yuan Shao''s affairs instead of the Huns.


    Then there was the battle with Yuan Shao.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and reported: "general, Sima Yi asked to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Now Sima Lang has been included in Zhang Xiu''s command, as Hongnong Taishou. For Sima Yi, Zhang Xiu also looks forward to it. He was not afraid of Sima Yi''s ability, but he was afraid of Sima Yi''s clumsiness, because there were enough talents under Zhang Xiu''s command, so it was impossible for Sima Yi to be in power.


    What''s more, this is not Sima Yi in history. Zhang Xiu has enough ability to control it.


    When Wang Yue saw that Sima Yi was coming, he bowed to leave.


    After a short time, Sima Yi entered.


    Today''s Sima Yi is wearing a white robe, a silk scarf and a flowing gown. Although Sima Yi is less than 20 years old, he is a mature, not ignorant young man.


    Zhang Xiu has never met Sima Yi, because in the first life, Cao Cao, after he was appointed as Sikong, although he once recruited Sima Yi, but Sima Yi pretended to be ill and refused. After Zhang Xiu died, Cao Cao forcibly recruited Sima Yi.


    Seeing Sima Yi, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    Sima Yi is a handsome young man with slender figure and bright eyes. After standing in the central army tent, he arched his hand and said, "Sima Yi, meet general Zhang."


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    In the barracks, grass mounds were set up to make it easy to do at will.


    Sima Yi lifted up her robe and sat down, feeling a little shocked. Although he already knew that Zhang Xiu was young, he was shocked to see her.


    Zhang Xiu is too young.


    In the whole world, Zhang Xiu has never been so young as to take the lead, especially in killing Xiongnu, defeating Cao Cao and retreating from Korea.


    People are more angry than others.


    Sima Yi felt that she was outstanding in talent and learning, but compared with Zhang Xiu, she couldn''t help losing her heart.


    The gap is too big.


    Any youth, in front of Zhang Xiu, has no courage to compare.


    It''s sad.


    More helpless!


    Sima Yi took a deep breath, adjusted her inner mood and calmed herself down. She solemnly said, "come to see General Zhang in the next morning. There are some things. I need to consult general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Yesterday, Zhang Xiu and Sima Lang decided Sima Yi''s future and let Sima Yi be Zhang Xiu''s close follower. If this is put in later generations, Sima Yi is Zhang Xiu''s secretary. She can go through all kinds of things with Zhang Xiu, but she has no voice. She can only see but can''t say.


    Zhang Xiu also had high hopes for Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi is a talent!


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is willing to cultivate and give opportunities for reuse.


    Sima Yi looked solemn and said: "the first thing is that although general Zhang defeated the Xiongnu army outside Wenxian County, he also killed Yu Fuluo and Liu Bao, and removed the leader of the Xiongnu people, it''s not enough."


    "In fact, as far as I know, on the way from Heyang County to Wenxian County, there were also a group of Hun cavalry in ambush."


    "These cavalry are the most difficult."


    "The strength of the Huns lies not in the infantry, but in the cavalry. Yu Fuluo attacked Wen county with infantry. That was to attack each other''s strong points with his own short points, and it was self destruction. "


    Sima Yi said: "however, if the cavalry arranged by Yu Fuluo could not be eliminated, it would be like gangrene with bones, which would pose a great threat to General Zhang."


    "In particular, in Nanyang County, general Zhang killed huchuquan, the Xiongnu''s Zuoxian king, and now in Wenxian County, he killed dathanyu Fuluo, the Xiongnu people. For the Xiongnu people, that''s a bitter hatred."


    "If we don''t destroy them, there may be danger one day."


    Sima Yi said, "what does general Zhang think?"


    This is a difficult problem set by Sima Yi. He wants to see how Zhang Xiu will solve it.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "in fact, all the Hun cavalry ambushed between Wen County and Heyang County have been killed. Ten thousand Hun cavalry, the whole army is destroyed. "Sima Yi raised her eyebrows and eyes, and her face was shocked and stunned.


    Ten thousand cavalry were destroyed.


    How is that possible?


    The Huns always come and go like the wind, which is the most difficult to exterminate. But Zhang Xiu killed ten thousand Hun cavalry with her mouth open. Sima Yi couldn''t help but feel confused and unbelievable.


    Sima Yi narrowed her eyes and asked, "I don''t know who planned and directed the general Zhang''s killing of the Xiongnu cavalry?"


    Zhang xiudao: "Yang Xiu plans, Huang Zhong personally takes command."


    Sima Yi said: "how to plan?"


    Although Sima Yi and Zhang Xiu can''t compare, after all, there is a big gap between them, but Sima Yi doesn''t think she is worse than Yang Xiu. In fact, the age of Yang Xiu is not far away from that of others.


    As soon as he heard that it was Yang Xiu''s plan, Sima Yi immediately asked.


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the key to Yang Xiu''s plan is to take advantage of the heavy rain the night before yesterday."


    "The night before yesterday, it didn''t rain at first. When Huang Zhong''s army approached Shapingba, he found that the Hun cavalry was ambushed in Shapingba, and even knew the location of the Hun people''s ambush, but Huang Zhong''s main force was infantry, not cavalry. "


    "The Xiongnu cavalry had a strong fighting capacity and a large number of people, so it was not easy to deal with them."


    "So Huang Zhong pretends not to know."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "at night, Yang Xiu watched the sky at night and found that there was rain at night, so Yang Xiu suggested Huang Zhong to attack. According to Huang Zhong''s report, Yang Xiu suggested that when he sent troops, he had set the time of rain within an hour. "


    "About half an hour after Huang Zhong''s journey, there will be heavy rain."


    "Since then, Shapingba has been muddy. Shapingba is a piece of sand. After the road is muddy, the horses can''t run. Ten thousand elite riders lose their fighting power and become the fish on Huang Zhong''s chopping board. "


    "In particular, the Huns were not aware of Huang Zhong''s overnight raid."


    "Under the rule of the sudden attack, the Huns were annihilated."


    With a faint smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "this is Yang Xiu''s plan. It''s easy to say, but the key is that Yang Xiu accurately judges that there is rain in an hour, so as to attack at night in time. If we don''t judge in time and send troops after the heavy rain, the situation will be different. "


    Sima Yi drew her cheek.


    What a Yang Xiu!


    I can''t believe that the sky is so accurate that I can make sure that it will rain in an hour.


    Sima Yi also knew the celestial phenomena, but he could not make Sima Yi know exactly when it rained.


    Sima Yi was convinced.


    Sima Yi might be able to judge the advantages of attacking Xiongnu people at night after the rain. However, he may not be able to make a decision before it rains.


    "I''m not as much as Yang Xiu!"


    Sima Yi took a deep breath and had to admit this fact.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you are still young!"


    In a word, Sima Yi was even more injured. Because of Sima Yi''s original intention, he never regarded himself as a young man, never thought he was young, but in a word, Zhang Xiu regarded him as a young man.

 Chapter 398

    Sima Yi felt that he had been very successful all his life. Even though his elder brother Sima Lang had outstanding talents, he was the most intelligent person in the family. Everyone praised him and praised him for his talent.


    Now, he feels sick.


    Zhang Xiu is the same age as him, so it''s better than him. Pang Tong is the same age as him. He is already a Shangshu under Zhang Xiu''s command. That''s all. After all, Pang Tong was born early and had a chance. He was short of chance.


    Yang Xiu is also so powerful.


    Sima Yi''s heart even gave birth to the idea that it is not appropriate to go out today without seeing the Yellow calendar.


    But Sima Yi''s psychological quality was excellent. He soon adjusted his mind and said again, "listen to my elder brother, let me follow the general. Just before that, I have three questions. "


    "That''s the second thing."


    Sima Yi looks serious.


    This is the second mace he prepared.


    If Zhang Xiu''s answer satisfies him, he is willing to become an official, to be Zhang Xiu''s follower, and to follow Zhang Xiu.


    If he is not satisfied, he will not be in office.


    This is Sima Yi''s idea.


    In fact, Sima Yi''s mace was to ask about the cavalry of Xiongnu. It was to prepare to use cavalry to make Zhang Xiu difficult. Unexpectedly, Huang Zhong and Yang Xiu under Zhang Xiu''s command had already solved 10000 Hun cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "Zhong Da has three questions, but say no harm, this will be all ears."


    Sima Yi said, "first, what does general Zhang think of the people?"


    Zhang Xiu thought quickly in her heart.


    What about the people?


    In the final analysis, this question is from the perspective of Zhang Xiu, asking Zhang Xiu how to treat the people.


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while, then said: "what the common people in the world want is the simplest. It''s nothing more than food and clothing. As long as this can be achieved, the world can be governed in a great way. "


    "Throughout today''s world, not to mention people''s food, clothing and warmth, they can''t even live a safe life in their hometown. Countless people have left their homes and been displaced everywhere. "


    "People are displaced, some people die on the way, some people choose to become bandits."


    "The world is in chaos."


    "If the people are not stable, it will affect the whole world."


    "The whole big man is in turmoil."


    Zhang Xiu said with great eloquence: "to sum up, the boat is the king, the water is Li Shu, and the water can carry the boat and overturn it! If the people are upset and unable to live, the country will be unstable and the country will be overthrown. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    When Sima Yi heard this, her eyes were bright.


    "The boat is the king, the water is the common people, the water can carry the boat, also can overturn the boat!"


    "It should come to light!"


    Sima Yi mumbled to herself, very excited. However, after Sima Yi was excited, she suddenly realized that she was inquiring about Zhang Xiu at this time. This move just now was a little too excited.


    Sima Yi put away the smile on her face and continued: "General Zhang''s reply really brightened my eyes. But I have a second question


    Zhang Xiu was amused to see Sima Yi''s smile put away.


    Sima Yi is trying to give him the upper hand.


    I didn''t expect to hit the iron plate.


    But when Sima Yi heard Zhang Xiu''s answer, she was very happy. Maybe this is the answer Sima Yi wanted, but he didn''t think of it himself, so he asked Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu said the answer, Sima Yi was suddenly enlightened, so that she suddenly laughed and praised.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the second question?"


    Sima Yi once again said, "my second question is how does general Zhang treat civil servants and military generals?"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly: "in my general''s view, whether it is a civil servant or a military general, it is a human being. The sages once said that pro virtuous officials are far from treacherous and sycophantic. This is a popular saying. "


    "But it''s also true."


    "With bronze as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes; with history as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs; with people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses."


    "Civil servants and military generals are all human beings, but they are even more human mirrors."


    Zhang Xiu looks confident, said: "with civil servants and military generals as a mirror contrast, the monarch can not be mistaken."


    Sima Yi''s eyes were shining.


    His heart soared with joy.


    Zhang Xiu said it very well.


    He just said what he thought, but he had some ideas before, but in fact, he didn''t organize the language well. Zhang Xiu''s words completely explained his intention.


    Sima Yi was very happy and said again, "my third question, how should you be?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to be the Lord, or how to be the Lord, the sages'' elaboration is numerous. But as far as Zhang Xiu is concerned, I don''t think it''s good to be small but not good, and evil to be small but not evil. "


    Sima Yi was intoxicated.


    He praised Zhang Xiu''s third answer, the Lord has many choices, but Zhang Xiu''s words, but from a small point, let Sima Yi feel in Zhang Xiu''s shrewdness, also in Zhang Xiu''s tact.Sima Yi was completely convinced.


    He stood up, folded his hands, bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu 90 degrees, and solemnly said: "Sima Yi, I''d like to see my Lord. I''m willing to urge him. I don''t regret my life and death!"


    Sima Yi is loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    He knew that he had passed the test of Sima Yi. In other words, he convinced Sima Yi with three answers.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "get up. From today on, you will be the chief of the general, and you will follow the general."


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi arched her hand and answered.


    At this time, Sima Yi was no longer proud, but modest. Because Sima Yi found that both Zhang Xiu and her subordinates were full of talents. They were just like hidden dragons and crouching tigers.


    Zhang xiudao said: "go back and clean up. When Huang Zhong arrives, our army will go north."


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi gave a reply.


    After that, Sima Yi turned and left.


    Sima Yi left the camp and soon returned to Sima''s home. At this time, Sima Lang is still arranging family affairs, because Sima''s family will move to Chang''an, involving many things.


    Seeing Sima Yi, Sima Lang asked, "Zhongda, didn''t you go to see the Lord? Why are you back so soon? "


    Sima Yi said, "I''m going to go out with my Lord."


    "Eh!"


    Sima Lang raised his head with a look of astonishment on his face. He immediately got up with joy and said, "I heard that you are going out in the morning and are going to make trouble for your master. Coming back so soon, I am convinced by my Lord. "


    After hearing this, Sima Yi laughed awkwardly and said, "my Lord, I have far-reaching wisdom. I am willing to follow and serve my Lord. "


    Sima Lang was a little curious. What did Zhang Xiu and Sima Yi talk about? They made Sima Yi, who always had eyes above the top, so docile and easy to talk.


    However, Sima Lang did not ask more.


    It is also a good thing for Sima Yi to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Sima Lang didn''t pay attention to Sima Yi any more. He arranged for his servants to pack up and prepare to leave Wenxian. At noon, when everything was finished, Sima Lang arranged for the old housekeeper to stay at his ancestral home.


    Then he asked Sima Fu to take the rest of his brothers and leave Wenxian for Chang''an.


    Sima Lang and Sima Yi put things in order. They went out of the house and went to the barracks. Sima Yi wants to follow Zhang Xiu, while Sima Lang goes to say goodbye to Zhang Xiu.


    He is going to Hongnong county.

 Chapter 399

    Hanoi County, Huai county.


    Zhang Yang is now worried all day that Zhang Xiu will be killed in huaixian County ahead of schedule. In order to publicize the current strength, it is impossible to rely on the thousands of soldiers in huaixian county to block Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Therefore, Zhang Yang is anxious, looking forward to the early arrival of Yuan Shao''s army in huaixian county.


    In the prefecture, Zhang Yang is enjoying himself in the backyard of the prefecture, sleeping with his two concubines.


    He was very upset and couldn''t solve his worries. So he spent the whole day in the backyard, hanging out with his new concubine and venting his depression on his bed.


    When rolling the sheets with a woman, Zhang Yang forgets his worries for a while. However, when the vent is over and the matter is done, lying on the bed, the mind is immediately pulled back to reality and faced with the reality of sorrow.


    Linger in the wine, publicity in a short time, lost a lot.


    He looks bad.


    A pair of eyes, full of red blood; under the eyes, there is a thick pouch. It''s hard to stand on your cheeks and even feel pale when you walk.


    This is the publicity now.


    After Zhang Yang finished his work, he was upset and sent his concubine away. He changed his coat and went back to his study again. Just sitting in the study, he couldn''t read any books and didn''t want to practice calligraphy. He simply ordered someone to bring a jar of wine and drink for a long time.


    "Dong! Dong


    Outside the study, there was a knock on the door.


    Zhang Yang said, "come in!"


    The housekeeper came in and looked at the drunken publicity, with a touch of worry on his face. But when it comes to publicity, the housekeeper doesn''t dare to remind him. He just reports: "my Lord, I just received news from Zhang Xiu."


    On hearing this, Zhang Yang became nervous and said, "what''s the news? Is it that Zhang Xiu is coming?"


    "No!"


    Answered the housekeeper, shaking his head.


    "Hoo


    Zhang Yang took a long breath, relaxed on his face and asked, "what''s the action of Zhang Xiu?"


    The housekeeper said: "just received the news that the Huns attacked Wenxian, and Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to rescue. Today, Zhang Xiu is against the Huns who surrounded Wen County, and it is impossible to attack Huai County for the time being. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Yangmao stood up, his face showing ecstatic expression.


    At this moment, Zhang Yang is completely at ease.


    Zhang Yang looked forward to it and said, "if Zhang Xiu fought against the Huns and died in the hands of the Huns, that would be great. Hanoi county''s crisis, then it will be resolved by itself. "


    The housekeeper worried: "my Lord, the Huns attacked Wenxian. With the strength of Wenxian, they couldn''t stop it. I''m afraid that if the Huns enter Wenxian, Wenxian will turn into a hell on earth, and countless people will suffer. "


    "It doesn''t matter!"


    Zhang Yangda said happily: "the Huns are rampant. It''s only temporary. Although there are countless people suffering in Wenxian County, it is only Wenxian county that suffers. "


    "The Huns will soon withdraw after plundering, and will not shake the foundation of their official position."


    "Zhang Xiu is different!"


    "Every time Zhang Xiu occupies a county, he will show kindness to the people and win the hearts of the people. Once Zhang Xiu has a foothold in Hanoi, she will shake the foundation of her official position. This is a terrible thing. "


    Zhang Yang said: "therefore, I would rather have the common people suffer than Zhang Xiu invade Hanoi county."


    "What will the dead do?"


    "When the people are dead, more people will come."


    "But when Zhang Xiu captured Hanoi County, there was no official business."


    Zhang Yang had a crazy look in his eyes, poured a mouthful of wine, and said: "during this period, we should pay close attention to the situation in Wenxian county. As soon as we have news, we should report it immediately. I want to know that Zhang Xiu was killed by the Huns. "


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper nodded.


    Zhang Yang added: "there is a deep hatred between the Huns and Zhang Xiu. At the beginning, in Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu killed huchuquan, King Zuoxian of Xiongnu. Although she was famous, she was also remembered by Xiongnu people. "


    "This time, when the Huns met Zhang Xiu, they were bound to fight and kill her."


    "Although Yang Chou betrayed our official, now there are Xiongnu people fighting with Zhang Xiu. Our official can stand on the sidelines and kill Zhang Xiu with the help of Xiongnu people''s hands without a single soldier."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Yang repeatedly applauded and said, "I thought that I was in a desperate situation, but I didn''t expect that heaven would help me. The only regret is that I can''t do it myself. Alas, I should not have told Xue Tao to go north to ask Yuan Shao for help if I had known that the Huns would come to Wenxian. Now that Yuan Shao''s army is here, it''s easier to ask God than to send him away. "


    The housekeeper frowned as he listened.


    For the housekeeper, he was compassionate and didn''t want the people in Wen county to be slaughtered by the Huns.


    After all, they are all Chinese.The housekeeper said, "master, but Wen county is all Han people after all."


    Zhang Yang saw the housekeeper open his mouth. In his turbid eyes, a touch of cool color passed by. He waved to the housekeeper and said, "come here!"


    The housekeeper went up immediately.


    Zhang Yang hums and kicks out. He put his foot in the housekeeper''s heart. Just listen to the housekeeper scream, he fell back to the ground and howled.


    Severe pain, all over the body.


    Even for a moment, the housekeeper had difficulty breathing.


    "Son of a bitch, whose are you?"


    "Which side are you on?"


    "Who raised you?"


    "Who gave you good food and drink?"


    Zhang Yang goes to the housekeeper and keeps kicking his feet. He has fierce eyes and eyebrows, and every time his foot falls on the housekeeper, the housekeeper screams.


    After a while, Zhang Yang stopped.


    The housekeeper curled up on the ground with a flash of anger in his eyes. But in an instant, it disappeared and calmed down again, leaving only a look of pain on his face. He knelt down and kept kowtowing for mercy.


    After Zhang Yang continued to drink and scold, he went back to his seat and did not care about the housekeeper.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, outside the door of the room, there was a soldier''s cry: "my Lord, there is an urgent report from Wen County!"


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Yang gave an order.


    The soldiers entered, handed back the war report, and stood respectfully in the hall.


    Zhang Yang has a joyful look on his face. He expects Zhang Xiu to die in the hands of Xiongnu people and his army to be defeated. With a cheerful and entertaining mood, Zhang Yang opened the war report.


    At the sight of the contents of the war report, his cheeks twitched, his face collapsed, and his expression froze.


    When the housekeeper saw this, he thought it was not good.


    It''s definitely not good news.


    Otherwise, it won''t be.


    Zhang Yang Gulong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and murmured: "the Huns were defeated. Yu Fuluo and Yu Fuluo''s son Liu Bao were all killed by Zhang Xiu. In addition, all the 20000 Xiongnu people, including 10000 cavalry, were killed. Zhang Xiu built a Beijing Temple in Wenxian county to deter the world. "


    At this moment, Zhang Yang was in a state of panic.


    Damn Huns.


    What a bunch of crap!


    Xiongnu people always come and go like the wind. They are rebellious and ferocious. How can they get to Zhang Xiu? They are so vulnerable. It makes Zhang Yang angry. Zhang Yang''s heart, which had been stable, suddenly became flustered and nervous.


    Zhang Xiu killed the Huns.


    It is more powerful and invincible.


    He can''t afford to offend such people.


    Zhang Yang thought that the news of the housekeeper was so slow. Looking at the housekeeper, he said coldly: "Zhang Xiu has defeated the Huns, and the news you get is that the Huns have entered Wenxian. This news is too late. "


    , the steward, could not help but shiver. He hurriedly said, "my Lord, I immediately rebuke the eyeliner on the house and instruct them to pay close attention to the situation on the front line."


    Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and said, "if you do it again next time, just drag it down to feed the dog."


    "Yes


    The housekeeper answered quickly.


    Zhang Yang waved the soldiers back and asked, "the latest news, where is Yuan Shao''s army?"


    At the moment of publicity, I wish Yuan Shao''s army would arrive at once.


    Otherwise, he won''t be able to hold on.


    The housekeeper replied, "report back, sir. Yesterday, I received a message from the sentinel that Yuan Shao''s army had entered the territory of Huai county. I guess we should be able to arrive today. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier came to the door to report the news.


    Zhang Yang said, "come in!"


    Another soldier entered and reported: "my Lord, Yuan Shao''s army is less than five miles away from the county seat. Soon, we will arrive in huaixian county. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    On the face of publicity, a smile appeared again.


    Originally just panic of publicity, heart again excited, feel incomparable peace of mind. With Yuan Shao''s army in town, he had the confidence to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao''s army is strong, and Zhang Xiu''s army is not weak.


    The two sides fought with each other.


    In the end, it was he who benefited.


    Zhang Yang has the confidence, big sleeve a whisk, way: "know, back down!"


    After the soldier retired, Zhang Yang immediately arranged for the housekeeper to bring him the official robe, change into formal clothes and the title of meritocracy.


    After dressing up, he combed his hair and ordered to mobilize the main officials of Hanoi prefecture to leave the prefect''s residence and go to the north gate of Huai County, where he was ready to meet yuan Jun.

 Chapter 400

    After entering Hanoi County in Jizhou, Zhang Yan led 30000 elite soldiers and rushed to huaixian county at full speed. Rao is Zhang jaw ordered full speed, Wenchou still can''t wait, constantly urged Zhang jaw to speed up.


    Along the way, I''m afraid Wen Chou''s urging is no less than 100 times.


    Every other time.


    This makes Zhang jaw helpless.


    Zhang Yan can also understand Wen Chou. After all, Yan Liang, Wen Chou''s good friend, is arrested, and Wen Chou''s eagerness is normal. The problem is that the army has been on the way at full speed, and the literary clowns are still urging, which makes Zhang jaw unhappy.


    In terms of seniority, Zhang Yan is no more ugly than Wen.


    However, in front of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao preferred Yan Liang and Wen Chou, so it was useless for Zhang to scold Wen Chou. At first, Zhang Yan tried to dissuade Wen Chou, but it didn''t work. After that, Zhang Yan turned away to Tian Feng and asked Tian Feng to appease Wen Chou.


    Tian Feng was upright, and he was the most valued counselor of Yuan Shao.


    Wen Chou can be aggressive in front of Zhang Jia, but Wen Chou is just like a child in front of Tian Feng. He has no arrogance and allows Tian Feng to teach him.


    The army is getting closer and closer to huaixian county.


    Tian Feng rode along with the army, thinking about annexing huaixian.


    "Newspaper!"


    There are soldiers on the way, quickly came to Tian Feng''s side, handed up the latest war report.


    Tian Feng took the letter and scanned it quickly.


    After reading it, he had a complicated look on his face, because the latest information was not about publicity, but about Zhang Xiu''s killing 20000 Xiongnu.


    Along the way, Tian Feng has already made clear the situation of Hanoi county. He knows that Heyang County, where Zhang Xiu is located, is not far from Huai County, and Heyang County is not far from Wen County.


    When the Huns came to Hanoi, Zhang Xiu could ignore the Huns and take huaixian first.


    But Zhang Xiu still went to Wenxian.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s insistence.


    Tian Feng not only admired Zhang Xiu''s persistence and courage, but also feared Zhang Xiu''s ability and strength. Twenty thousand Huns, especially ten thousand Hun elite soldiers, were all destroyed in front of Zhang Xiu.


    It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is powerful.


    Such a person, even if Tian Feng, also incomparable fear.


    Even if Tian Feng had enough self-confidence to defeat the Huns, Tian Feng asked himself that he could not do it so cleanly.


    Wen Chou has been concerned about the return of intelligence. As soon as he saw the return of intelligence, he quickly came to Tian Feng''s side and asked, "military adviser, what''s the news?"


    Tian Feng didn''t say much. He handed the letter to Wen Chou.


    Wen Chou looks at it and stares at it.


    On his rough cheek, he was shocked and said, "Zhang Xiu has totally annihilated 20000 elite soldiers of Xiongnu people. This guy is really terrible. However, I will certainly defeat Zhang Xiu and take back brother Yan. "


    Tian Feng drove his horse forward and came to Zhang''s side. He told Zhang Xiu the news that he had captured Wenxian and defeated the Huns.


    After that, Tian Feng said once again: "Zhang Xiu is a man who is treacherous in the use of troops and is not easy to deal with. In my opinion, when we arrived in huaixian County, we won publicity with the fastest speed and took control of huaixian county. First we had a foothold and then we thought about fighting with Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "what the military adviser said is very true, this war can not be in a hurry to fight with Zhang Xiu. First feel the details of Zhang Xiu, wait for her to show her flaws, and then beat her. We can''t be careless when we fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "That''s true," Tian Feng said


    After a discussion, they took the army on their way. When the army was less than two miles away from huaixian County, Zhang Ya immediately ordered: "pass the order, and the army will stop advancing."


    All troops, quick stop.


    Seeing that the army had stopped, Xue Tao went forward and asked, "General Zhang, I''m going to invite Zhang Yang to meet you."


    "Good!"


    Open jaw nods to answer.


    Xue Tao galloped his horse and galloped his horse. It didn''t take long for the distance of two miles. It wasn''t long before Xue Tao came to the gate and saw the waiting party.


    In fact, Zhang Yang has been waiting for a long time.


    When Zhang Yang learned that Zhang Yan''s army was approaching, he took a group of officials, including the county magistrate, Duwei and huaixian county magistrate, to the north gate of huaixian county to meet Zhang Yan and wait for his arrival.


    This is a show of sincerity.


    He must let Zhang jaw feel his sincerity, in order to let Zhang jaw and Zhang Xiu work hard.


    Seeing Xue Tao coming back, Zhang Yang frowned and said, "Xue Tao, why are you the only one coming back? Zhang''s 30000 elite soldiers, I remember that the army had already arrived, why didn''t they enter the city? "


    Xue Tao sighed and said, "Lord, as the general of Yuan Shao, Zhang Yan is very proud and despises us. When he got two miles outside the city, he ordered the army to stop. He said that huaixian county is to help the Lord. The Lord should go to meet him personally to show his sincerity. "


    Brush!


    A slight change of face.


    He has some face when he publicizes that he is at least the supreme governor. But Yuan Shao didn''t come in person. He just sent a Zhang Yan to meet him two miles outside the city. It was like beating him in the face.He went to the gate of the city to meet him, and now he has to go out of the city.


    It''s a force.


    Where is his face?


    Zhang Yang was angry at first, but in a flash, he was replaced by helplessness.


    Because of Yuan Shao.


    Without Yuan Shao''s army, Zhang Xiu could not be stopped by Zhang Yang, and he could not have a foothold in Hanoi county. Therefore, even if you put on airs, you have no choice but to swallow your anger.


    Zhang Yang took a deep breath and said, "Xue Tao, you are a man with a bright tongue. How can you not persuade him? You know, it''s about our faces. "


    Xue Tao sneered at him. He was no longer a man of publicity, but he was obedient to Yuan Shao.


    He planned for Yuan Shao.


    He doesn''t care about publicity.


    However, Xue Tao had a helpless look on his face and explained: "my Lord, I''ve tried my best to persuade Zhang Yan. But Zhang Yan said that if you speak again, you will kill your humble job. I have no choice but to be humble. "


    "Just, just!"


    Hearing Xue Tao''s words, Zhang Yang sighed and ordered, "let''s go, let''s meet."


    "Here it is


    Xue Datao is very happy.


    Zhang Yang personally went out of the city to meet him. When he arrived in front of Zhang Yan, he was far away from the county seat of Huai county. At that time, Zhang Yang wants to struggle, which is impossible.


    Today, Xue Tao has always thought about Yuan Shao rather than publicity. Because he, Xue Tao, was a member of Yuan Shao.


    It is the truth of all ages that people go up and water flows down.


    Xue Tao and Zhang Yang, together with a group of Hanoi county officials and a few soldiers, had nearly 100 people on their way. Time is not long, Zhang Yang came to Zhang Yan.


    Zhang Yang saw Zhang''s jaw, who was dressed in armour and galloped his horse. His hands closed and he arched his hands and said, "I''ve met General Zhang. This time, general Zhang has helped Hanoi county with his troops. Zhang Yang is very grateful. "


    After a pause, Zhang Yang said: "I have already set up a banquet in the city to help General Zhang clean up the dust. Please show my appreciation to General Zhang."


    Zhang Yanshou pulled the reins of the horse and said with a smile, "of course, it''s OK to go to a banquet or something. However, what Xue Tao said in front of his Lord was not asking him to send troops to help him. What Xue Tao said is on behalf of Zhang Taishou''s submission to the Lord. "


    Brush!


    Publicity has changed a lot.


    At this moment, Zhang Yang''s anger rose. He looked at Xue Tao and asked, "Xue Tao, how did you tell Yuan Shao?"


    Xue Tao looked innocent and said, "Lord, how can you go back on what you said? When you were sent to Jizhou at your command, you said clearly that you were willing to submit to Yuan Jizhou. That''s why yuan Jizhou sent troops. Don''t you forget that? "


    "You, you..."


    When Zhang Yang saw Xue Tao''s insincere words, he was so angry that he was short of breath, and his eyes were twinkling with a fierce intention to kill.


    He wanted to kill Xue Tao.


    Because of Xue Tao''s words, he was in a desperate situation. He wanted to retort, but Zhang''s army was in front of him, and he was far away from huaixian county. There were more than 100 soldiers around him, only some civil servants and military generals, who could not stop Zhang''s army.


    What can he do?


    "Poof!"


    He was so angry that his chest kept rising and falling. He only felt that once his throat was sweet, his Qi and blood could not be suppressed, and a mouthful of blood would gush out, and his whole breath would be depressed.

 Chapter 401

    No matter how stupid the officials under his command are, they can see the problem.


    Obviously, Zhang Yang did not give in.


    However, Xue Tao said that he was submissive, but under the current situation, no matter the county magistrate of Hanoi, or the Duwei of Hanoi, or even the magistrate of huaixian County, they all kept silent and did not point out the problems.


    No one spoke for Zhang Yang.


    Because the situation is over.


    Zhang Yan didn''t care about Zhang Yang''s hematemesis. His face was very serious and even colder. He said faintly, "Tai Shou Zhang, do you think there''s something wrong with it?"


    "I, I..."


    Open mouth, but the words to the mouth, but can not say.


    Zhang continued: "of course, if you don''t want to surrender to our Lord and repent, I won''t force you. I mainly based on Jizhou tiger world, just a Hanoi County, did not care. As long as you say you don''t want to submit to my Lord, I will immediately transfer my army to Jizhou. "


    Brush!


    Make it public and change your face again.


    At this point, Zhang Xiu, in particular, has captured Wenxian county and destroyed the Huns, making her strength even stronger. Under such circumstances, Zhang Yang did not dare to let Zhang go.


    Once he retreats, he will lose.


    He can''t stop Zhang Xiu.


    In particular, Zhang said that Yuan Shao didn''t care about Hanoi county and would retreat with his army. What if Zhang suddenly killed people?


    This is what Zhang Yang is worried about.


    Zhang Yang''s pale face had turned red. He opened his mouth several times, but when he got to his mouth, he swallowed it again. The desire to survive, and ultimately suppress the true thoughts of the heart.


    He has no other choice.


    I can only surrender!


    Zhang Yang closed his hands, forced a smile on his face, arched his hands and said, "I did send Xue Tao to see yuan Jizhou to submit to Yuan Jizhou. Now that general Zhang is here with his troops, I''m very grateful for his publicity. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang chin said with a smile, "if it''s a misunderstanding, I''ll be ready to withdraw."


    "No need to retreat, no need to retreat!"


    Zhang Yang answered one after another.


    Zhang jaw big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "go, it''s time to enter the city."


    "General Zhang, please!"


    He waved his hand and looked appointed.


    Now, he has no choice.


    Zhang ordered his troops to go on their way, but when they went on their way, they didn''t let Zhang Yang go in the front. Instead, they let a group of soldiers follow Zhang Yang and completely put Zhang Yang in custody.


    As long as there is a little change in Zhang Yang, he will be killed immediately.


    When Zhang Yang went to Huai County, his eyes fell on Xue Tao, full of hatred.


    It''s all Xue Tao!


    He asked Xue Tao to go to Jizhou to ask Yuan Shao for help, but it turned out to be a wolf in the door.


    Xue Tao betrayed him.


    All this was caused by Xue Tao.


    Zhang Yang has endless hatred in his heart, but now he can only restrain it and follow the team into the city. When the team arrived at the gate of the city, Zhang Yan took the lead in arranging the vanguard troops to enter the city and take over the city defense of Huai county.


    After taking control of the four gates, Zhang Ya ordered the army into the city and led Zhang Yang into the city.


    The army was quartered in the city.


    Zhang Yang was still detained, while the rest of the officials returned to their respective posts.


    Zhang Yang is not angry when he is detained.


    He asked the soldiers in custody to inform him and ask to see Zhang Yan. After a while, some soldiers took him to the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Yang saw Zhang Yan and said, "General Zhang, I''m willing to submit to Yuan Jizhou. But why am I still detained in the barracks and not allowed to go back to the prefecture? "


    Zhang jaw laughed, not impatient asked: "do you want to go back to the prefecture?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Yang nods and answers.


    Zhang Yan''s hand clenched the scabbard around his waist and said, "if you want to go back to the prefecture, there is only one possibility, that is, the soul will return to the prefecture. Would you like to go back like this? "


    Zhang Yang''s cheek puffed, and his eyes showed a strong sense of helplessness.


    Jaw opening is a direct threat.


    It is clear that he is going to continue to detain him, which makes Zhang Yang''s heart deeply humiliated.


    Zhang Yang turned his mind and didn''t give up. He said again, "General Zhang, I''m willing to listen to Yuan Jizhou''s arrangement when I surrender to Yuan Jizhou. Besides, I''m willing to cooperate with you. I''ll do whatever you want me to do. "


    "I''m not used to living in the barracks."


    "I went back to the prefect''s house, and everything was arranged."


    "If general Zhang doesn''t trust me, he can arrange for soldiers to stay outside the prefect''s house, and forbid anyone to go in and out of the prefect''s house. So you don''t have to worry about me getting in the way. "


    Zhang Yang said: "General Zhang imprisons me. Once the news comes out, it''s not good for you to take over Hanoi County, is it? I went back to the prefect''s house, closed the door and didn''t see anyone. I''m just a rich man, can I? "After listening, my heart moved.


    According to Zhang Yang, it has no effect on Zhang''s jaw.


    Zhang Yang continued: "although the troops in the city are controlled by general Zhang for the time being, they are all my soldiers after all. Once they know that I''m imprisoned, it''s very likely that some soldiers will come up with ideas. "


    After a pause, Zhang Yang said: "as long as general Zhang is willing to let me go back to the prefecture and let me be a rich man who doesn''t care about the world, I am willing to declare my surrender to Yuan Jizhou in front of all the soldiers, and the army will be in the charge of General Zhang. In this way, general Zhang will have no worries. "


    In order to leave the barracks of publicity, can be said to be racking their brains.


    Zhang Yan thought for a while, and felt that there was no problem inside. Even if there was a problem, Zhang Yan was not afraid of making a fuss. He said, "your request will have been granted."


    "Somebody


    Immediately, soldiers entered.


    Zhang Yan said, "gather all the troops under Zhang Yang''s command."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to deliver the order at once.


    Zhang jaw''s eyes fell on Zhang Yang and said: "as long as you cooperate well with Zhang Yang, after you defeat Zhang Xiu, the Lord will not be stingy to reward you. If you cooperate well, you will record your credit. "


    "I''m sure I''ll cooperate with you."


    Zhang Yang has a smile on his face and a long sigh of relief.


    Zhang jaw stood up, left with Zhang Yang, and came to the military academy. Now there are more than ten thousand infantry under Zhang Yang''s command in huaixian County, all of which are Zhang Yang''s direct line.


    In front of all the soldiers, Zhang Yangyi said that he wanted to surrender to Yuan Shao, and that he wanted to avenge Sui Gu.


    With these words, Zhang Yang finally said, "from today on, all the soldiers will be under the command of General Zhang. Your reorganization will be carried out by general Zhang, and you must not disobey it. "


    All soldiers, come in.


    As a matter of fact, for the soldiers in the army, Zhang Yan''s army entered, and Zhang Yang''s army did not dare to resist. But now that there are more public orders, the soldiers no longer have any hesitation and accept the reorganization.


    After Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, Zhang Ya no longer detains people. A group of soldiers are arranged to send Zhang Yang back to the prefect''s residence, and people are arranged to stay outside the prefect''s residence. No one is allowed to enter or leave.


    Zhang jaw is sitting in the tent, ready to deal with other things, but suddenly takes Zhang Yang''s affairs into consideration in his mind. He immediately arranges for someone to call Tian Feng and Xue Tao and tell him to let Zhang Yang return to the prefecture.


    Tian Feng stroked three long whiskers under his jaw, with a cool look, and said nothing.


    There is no mistake in the arrangement of jaw opening.


    However, Xue Tao looked solemn and said, "General Zhang, you should not release the publicity. Let Zhang Yang go back to the general''s house, it may be that he will go back to the mountain and have endless troubles. "


    Zhang maxillofacial color solemn, asked: "why?"

 Chapter 402

    Xue Tao took a deep breath and replied: "the grand mansion is located in the north of the city, not far from the north city. In his mansion, there is a secret road that can pass through huaixian county. As soon as Zhang Yang returns to the prefecture, he can go out of the city through the secret road. Now, if you let it go back to the prefect''s office, it''s like going back to the mountains. "


    Xue Tao also panicked.


    He betrayed Zhang Yang and must be hated by him.


    Zhang Yang is sure to get back at him.


    Xue Tao clenched his teeth and suggested: "General Zhang, since he has imprisoned Zhang Yang, he has completely offended him. Now let Zhang Yang go back. In fact, Zhang Yang has the same inner resentment. "


    "If you cut grass but don''t remove roots, you''ll have endless troubles. In particular, Zhang Yang ordered the soldiers to accept the reorganization, leaving Zhang Yang even more meaningless. I suggest that soldiers should be sent to rush into the prefect''s residence immediately to kill Zhang Yang. "


    Xue Tao said: "if Zhang Yang wants to escape, he will clean up the gold and silver. He may not have left now. It''s still time to send troops."


    Zhang jaw heard, nervous, immediately said: "come on!"


    The soldiers entered immediately.


    When Zhang Jia wanted to send soldiers, Tian Feng suddenly said, "wait a minute!"


    As soon as he waved his hand, the soldiers who entered immediately retreated.


    Zhang asked, "why did the military division block it?"


    Although Zhang Ya is a military general in the army, he is both civil and military. He knows that Tian Feng has great talent. If you have Tian Feng''s advice, he can compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Tian Feng''s eyes twinkled with wisdom. His eyes fell on Xue Tao and asked, "Xue Tao, let me ask you. How many people know about publicizing your secret ways? "


    Xue Tao replied, "no one else knows, except me and my confidants. Moreover, I found this secret road by accident, and Zhang Yang didn''t know it. In publicity, he must think that only he knows the existence of the secret way. "


    "That''s good!"


    Tian Feng stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "in the case of publicity, no one knows the secret road. Even if Zhang Yang returns to the prefecture, he will not leave in a hurry, let alone huaixian county. "


    "Once he left huaixian, he lost everything."


    "In fact, a careful analysis of the matter reveals that publicity has two choices."


    "First, after Zhang Yang returned to the prefect''s residence, he collected his money and left huaixian county through the secret road. Now Xue Tao''s betrayal and his advocacy of revenge are the only choice for Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Yang will take advantage of Zhang Xiu and take revenge."


    "Second, Zhang Yang stayed in the prefect''s residence and used secret channels to send messages to contact Zhang Xiu. He then used the secret road to introduce Zhang Xiu''s army into the city, so as to cope with internal and external cooperation. "


    Tian Feng said with great eloquence: "both schemes are revenge."


    "I can''t stand Xue Tao''s betrayal if it comes to me. In particular, Zhang Yang arranged for Xue Tao to go to Yecheng to seek help from the Lord, but in the end, he became the flesh of others. "


    "Everything is in control."


    "No one can bear to put it on anyone."


    "Considering the two possibilities, I think the possibility of Zhang Yang leaving huaixian is very small. It is most likely that Zhang Xuexiu will bring revenge to Zhang Xuecheng


    Tian Feng looked wise and said, "if that''s the case, we can do whatever we want."


    Zhang Yan carefully pondered and praised: "what the military adviser said is true. There are royal guards under Zhang Xiu, who are specially responsible for inquiring about information. These royal guards are very powerful. Zhang Xiu is bound to get news from Huai county. Even if Zhang Xiu will doubt Zhang Yang, after confirming the news with the royal guards, she will eliminate her doubts. "


    "So it is


    Tian Feng had a look of approval in his eyes.


    Sitting in the camp, Xue Tao was on pins and needles at this moment. He found that the wisdom he relied on to survive was just like a child in front of Tian Feng. It was too weak.


    He can take one step to see one step, but Tian Feng can draw inferences from one instance, and take one step to see eight or nine or even ten steps.


    The gap between the two sides is too big.


    Tian Feng''s eyes fell on Xue Tao again and said, "Xue Tao, do you know where the secret road leads to?"


    "I know!"


    Xue Tao nodded immediately.


    "Good!"


    Tian Feng looked at Zhang Jia and said, "General Zhang, you should arrange a team of soldiers, led by Xue Tao, to go to the exit of the secret road immediately and hide, and keep an eye on the direction of the exit of the secret road. If Zhang Yang leaves, take Zhang Yang immediately. If you don''t want to leave, you just need to follow in the back and stare at each other''s whereabouts. "


    Zhang immediately called for the soldiers and asked Xue Tao to lead the way.


    Tian Feng said: "General Zhang, if we can open a breakthrough with the help of publicity, it will be a good thing for us."


    "I hope so," he said


    ¡­¡­


    Inside the prefect''s residence.


    In the study, Zhang Yang sat down, his face changed again and again.


    In Zhang Yang''s mind, he was entangled, so he left the prefect''s house and left by the secret road. Or, stay in the prefect''s house, and then deal with Zhang jaw.Zhang Yang will never forget the scene outside the city and the scene of being betrayed by Xue Tao.


    How hateful!


    In the end, Xue Tao betrayed him and chose to surrender to Yuan Shao, which made Zhang Yang have a deep hatred.


    If you don''t kill Xue Tao, you will make it public.


    He is also considering his own way to kill Xue Tao. With his present ability, it is extremely difficult to kill Xue Tao. Because his army has been reorganized.


    Many of his subordinates have long been obedient to Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Yang thinks quickly.


    He knows that in today''s situation, only with the help of Zhang Xiu can he get revenge. Because Zhang Xi is about to fight Zhang Xiu, if it is with the help of other forces, at least in the short term, it is impossible.


    Zhang Yang''s heart gives birth to the plan to leave huaixian alone and go to work for Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just that as soon as the idea rises, it''s strangled by publicity. If the secret road is found after Zhang Yang leaves, it will lose its function. At that time, even if he was under Zhang Xiu''s command, he would have no chance of revenge.


    His card is the secret road.


    This must not be lost.


    After pondering in Zhang Yang''s heart, he finally makes a decision to arrange for someone to go out of the city to see Zhang Xiu and tell her about the secret Road, so as to cooperate with Zhang Xiu.


    "Yes, that''s it."


    Zhang Yang''s heart soon made a decision.


    Only by staying in the prefecture can he exert his greatest strength. Moreover, if he stayed in the prefecture, he would not live in the open, and his life would not be in danger. This is the safest.


    Zhang Yang wrote a letter immediately, recording everything in huaixian.


    Then he talked about Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Yang didn''t avoid being betrayed by Xue Tao. He also explained that he didn''t ask for anything else, nor did he want to be the prefect of Hanoi county again. He just wanted to kill Xue Tao for revenge.


    After writing the letter, Zhang Yang immediately called the housekeeper.


    This is the confidant of publicity.


    He is aware of the existence of the secret passage.


    Zhang Yang looked solemn and said: "Zhang Chong, the success or failure of my family depends on this. You take the letter and leave huaixian by the secret road to find Zhang Xiu. He will tell you what to do. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Chong gave a reply.


    As a publicity housekeeper, he is a member of Zhang family. Now he is in his forties.


    It''s just Zhang Chong. He''s all injured.


    Zhang Chong turned his eyes and thought for a while. Then he said, "my Lord, I''m going to take the secret road to leave now. I''m afraid it will attract people''s attention. After dark, I''ll take the secret road out of the city. In this way, the information will not be leaked. "


    "All right!"


    Zhang Yang nods and answers.


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Yang waved his hand. He was not in a high mood and didn''t have the heart to say anything to Zhang Chong.

 Chapter 403

    Zhang Chong quit his study, arranged for people to wait for Zhang Yang''s arrangement at any time, and then quietly left the prefecture. He left the prefect''s residence, not out of the city, but in the direction of the barracks.


    Zhang Chong is fed up with publicity.


    Although Zhang Chong is a slave, he has a lot of blood.


    At the earliest time, Zhang Yang ignored the life and death of the people in Wenxian county. Zhang Chong felt that it was inappropriate and put forward his opinions.


    Unfortunately, he is just a housekeeper.


    After being beaten by Zhang Yang, Zhang Chong is completely disappointed with Zhang Yang. He thinks that Zhang Yang is crazy, regardless of the lives of the people. Later, Zhang Yang devoted himself to wine and sex all day long, ignoring everything else. Zhang Chong was even more resentful, so he took the letter to Zhang Ya''s barracks.


    Outside the camp, Zhang Chong asked the soldiers to report and ask to see Zhang Ya.


    After a while, the soldiers came out and took Zhang Chong into the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Chong saluted and said, "I''ve met General Zhang."


    Zhang said: "you are Zhang Yang''s housekeeper. What''s the matter when you come to the general''s camp?"


    Zhang Chong didn''t dare to hide. He immediately said that there was a secret way in his family. He also said that Zhang Yang asked him to pass the letter to Zhang Xiu. Finally, he handed over the letter written by Zhang Yang.


    After Zhang Yan took it, he didn''t take it apart for the time being, and said, "you''re Zhang Yang''s housekeeper, you''re from Zhang Jia. Why do you want to betray and publicize? "


    Zhang Chong said: "because publicity is not benevolent!"


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "where not benevolent?"


    Zhang Chong did not immediately explain, immediately took off his outer robe and inner shirt, revealing his upper body.


    His upper body is black and blue.


    It''s bruised everywhere.


    Especially Zhang Chong''s heart, there is a big piece of purple, looks very shocking.


    All over, all over the body.


    Zhang jaw saw Zhang Chong''s injury and was shocked.


    Zhang Chong said: "the injury on the villain was this morning. Because of the backward intelligence of the prefect''s office, Zhang Yang was the first to get the news that Wenxian was attacked by the Huns. Zhang Yang said loudly that the Huns had come well and hoped that the Huns would take Wenxian, and even more hoped that the Huns would kill Zhang Xiu who went to the rescue. "


    "At that time, I said that when the Huns entered Wenxian, they would be slaughtered and countless people would suffer."


    "This sentence angered Zhang Yang."


    "Zhang Yang thinks that I''ve been beaten so much because I''ve been inside and outside."


    "It''s crazy to publicize this person."


    Zhang Chong gritted his teeth and said: "in order to avenge Zhang Xiu, he ignored the lives of the people. Now, in order to regain power, they have to calculate again. So I come with a letter to ask the general to decide. "


    Zhang chin is an expert in martial arts. He has good eyesight. He can tell at a glance that Zhang Chong''s injury is not just a hit. It''s been a while.


    He believed Zhang Chong''s words.


    Zhang Jia, a Han nationality, also applauded Zhang Xiu for the Xiongnu people''s invasion of Wen County. Although Zhang Yan is more afraid of Zhang Xiu from a hostile point of view, it doesn''t prevent him from respecting what Zhang Xiu has done.


    Zhang Ya learned that Zhang Yang''s attitude towards Xiongnu people, and even despised Zhang Yang.


    On the contrary, he looked at Zhang Chong and felt that Zhang Chong was a bloody man. And if Zhang wants to calculate, it is impossible for Zhang Chong to expose the secret.


    Zhang only thought of one word.


    If you do wrong, you will die!


    Publicity is a sin.


    With a smile on his face, Zhang said, "Zhang Chong, you are very good. But I would have known about the secret road. Although it''s secret, Xue Tao knows about it. "


    "The reason why Ben Jiang didn''t win and publicize immediately was that he wanted to make plans."


    "If Zhang Yang turns to Zhang Xiu for help, you can act according to the plan."


    Zhang said the arrangement quickly.


    Now Zhang Chong is on his side. It''s easy to deal with Zhang Yang and calculate Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Chong asked: "General Zhang, don''t you read the letter?"


    "Of course I will."


    Zhang immediately opened the letter and scanned it quickly. The content of the letter is not complicated, that is, Zhang Yang expounded the situation of huaixian County, said Zhang Yan''s troops, and then said that Zhang Xiu''s army was invited to enter the city to take huaixian county.


    After reading, Zhang Yan took the envelope again, sealed the letter again, handed it to Zhang Chong and said, "this letter, you can continue to send it to Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu returns the letter, you can report it to me after you return. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Chong gave a reply.


    "As long as this is done, there will be a reward," Zhang said


    Zhang Chong replied, "I don''t care about rewards. I only want one thing. After the general wins, I will be released from slavery and become an ordinary people. I don''t dare to expect anything superfluous. "


    "It''s good to be contented."


    Zhang jaw laughed and praised Xu Zhang Chong''s reply.


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhang Chong left quickly without any delay.Zhang continued to deal with government affairs, finished his work, and then patrolled the army. He met Tian Feng, who was wandering around, and said something about Zhang Chong. Tian Feng sighed: "Zhang Yang is now imprisoned. He is lucky. People like him should have died long ago. "


    Zhang chin nodded yes.


    If it''s not that publicity is useful, if it''s Zhang''s temperament, he will kill Zhang directly.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The footstep sounds, but the literary clown comes.


    Wen Chou is more than nine feet long, and he is a big man. He stands on the ground like a hill. He had a rough face and a ferocious look.


    In front of Zhang Yan, Wen Chou couldn''t wait to say: "General Zhang, we have arrived in huaixian County, and the information we got is that Zhang Xiu is in Wenxian county. Why don''t we send troops directly to fight with Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang was quite helpless.


    He would rather lead the army by himself than with the literati and the clowns.


    Because the ugliness is out of control.


    Zhang Jia looks at Tian Feng and hopes that Tian Feng will come to the rescue.


    Tian Feng coughed twice, stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "general Wen, we don''t know the situation of Zhang Xiu. In addition, through publicity, we have the opportunity to calculate Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Tian Feng said: "we will stay in huaixian County for the time being, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s arrival. If general Wen can''t wait, I''ll give you a thousand soldiers. How about going to attack Zhang Xiu? "


    "How can a thousand soldiers be enough?"


    Although Wen Chou is a martial artist, he does not know the art of war. When one thousand soldiers attacked Zhang Xiu, it was like hitting a stone with an egg. It was impossible to win.


    Tian Feng continued: "how about giving you 1500 people?"


    "Not enough!"


    Wen Chou replied again, "I''m going to attack Zhang Xiu. I need at least 6000 elite soldiers."


    "No way!"


    Tian Feng''s face was cold and solemn, and said: "the army has its own rules. You are the Deputy General of the army, so you should obey the dispatch. If you want to fight with Zhang Xiu, sooner or later you will have a chance to fight. "


    "If you want to send troops, there are two choices."


    "First, take more than 1000 soldiers to act alone. I will report this to my Lord, who will make a decision. The second is to stay in the army and wait for Zhang Xiu''s army to kill him. "


    Tian Feng was sharp and said, "of course, you can report to the Lord. I''m not afraid."


    Wenchou Na Na, immediately did not say.


    Everyone knows that Tian Fenggang doesn''t even give Yuan Shao face, let alone him.


    Tian Feng continued: "even if the Lord blames me, I''m not afraid. What''s more, if you want to fight Zhang Xiu as soon as possible, don''t we? Now the Lord just and Gongsun Zan fight, defeat Zhang Xiu as soon as possible, we can return as soon as possible, in order to help the northern Youzhou war. But fighting on the battlefield is not a joke. If we send troops at will, what will we do if we are defeated? "


    Tian Feng snorted and said, "Yan Liang has fallen into the trap. Do you want to follow Yan Liang''s footsteps?"


    Wen Chou said, "I''m wrong, commander."


    In the face of Tian Feng, he didn''t have any confidence. He really couldn''t make Tian Feng angry.


    Tian Feng''s big sleeve brushed and said, "since you know your mistake, you should reflect on it. You should be clear that any one of us hopes to save general Yan as soon as possible. "


    "Yes


    Wenchou answers again.


    Tian Feng waved his hand. Wen Chou left unhappily and did not dare to stay.


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "gain and loss this time have military adviser, otherwise, I also want to be tired of explaining."


    Tian Feng said with a smile: "Wenchou is a man who also obeys persuasion."


    Zhang Yanjiao smokes. He doesn''t believe that Wen Chou listens to persuasion. In other words, Wen Chou is as gentle as a wolf dog in front of Tian Feng. He doesn''t dare to bark at all.


    If Wen Chou had been in front of Zhang Yan, he would have been shouting for a long time.

 Chapter 404

    In two days, Zhang Xiu handled all the affairs of Wen County properly.


    Army, advance again.


    This time, we are going to Huai county. Only by winning huaixian county can we really win Hanoi county. On Zhang Xiu''s way into the army, he gets the news from the royal guards that Yuan Shao''s army arrived in huaixian County, and he took control of huaixian county without any blood.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to attack Hanoi, so did Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao was absolutely willing to seize Hanoi without a single soldier.


    According to the news from the royal guards, Zhang Xiu also knows that the army of Yuan Shao, who entered Hanoi County, was led by Zhang Ya, and had Tian Feng and Wen Chou. For such an army, Zhang Xiu has no slightest contempt.


    Xu you is different from Tian Feng.


    Xu you was greedy and selfish, and easy to use. But Tian Feng was different. He was upright and devoted to planning for Yuan Shao. Such people are also very discerning and talented, which is very difficult to deal with.


    Jaw opening is not easy.


    Zhang Yan is also a wise general, not a brave man. Although Yan Liang''s martial arts are better than Zhang''s, he is not qualified to carry shoes in front of Zhang''s.


    In the real battle field, Yan Liang was absolutely abused by Zhang Yan and couldn''t find the north.


    Yuan Shao sent Zhang Ya, Tian Feng and Wen Chou, and the lineup was very strong.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is also careful to deal with.


    The army was on its way to Huai county. Along the way, Zhang Xiu sent sentries to investigate the situation along the way carefully to avoid being ambushed.


    But all the way smooth, did not encounter ambush, and the place was invincible.


    There is no resistance, only surrender.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu was thirty miles away from huaixian County, it stopped for a rest at noon.


    Together with Sima Yi, Yang Xiu and Pang Tong, Zhang Xiu is studying the situation of Huai county.


    Zhang Xiu said slowly: "according to the news sent back by the royal guards, Zhang Ya''s 30000 troops are stationed in Huai County, and have never sent troops. It can be seen from this that Zhang Yan is very likely to adopt the garrison strategy and let us attack Huai county to consume our troops. "


    Yang xiudao: "Lord, Zhang Ya has only 30000 elite soldiers. On our side, there are more than 20000 fierce tigers and more than 20000 flying bears, plus the rest of the conventional forces, the total number has already exceeded 50000."


    "We are far ahead of each other."


    "But even so, if we attack huaixian, it''s not good for us."


    "Although Zhang Ya first occupied Huai County, he didn''t control the whole Hanoi, especially the others who came from a long journey. If we send a surprise force to cut off its retreat, or send an army to harass the rear and destroy its food and grass supplies, we will have an advantage. "


    Yang Xiu gave suggestions.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not express his opinion.


    Yang Xiu''s analysis seems feasible, but it may not be.


    The reason is simple. With Zhang Ya and Tian Feng''s sophistication, they will certainly pay attention to the grain road, so cutting off the grain road is not easy to succeed. The most important thing is that huaixian county is the base of publicity, which was taken down by Zhang Yan suddenly. In half a year to a year, Zhang Yan did not worry about food and grass.


    Under such a premise, it is quite difficult to win by cutting off its grain supply.


    Pang Tong said: "in my opinion, it''s better to make use of publicity."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Pang Tong explained: "according to the information sent back by the royal guards, Zhang Yang sent Xue Tao to Yecheng for help, but as soon as Zhang Ya''s army arrived, Xue Tao said that Zhang Yang had surrendered to Yuan Shao."


    "Zhang jaw came to huaixian county to be incorporated."


    "Under the circumstances at that time, Zhang Yang could not resist at all, and finally had no choice but to surrender."


    "Today''s publicity is imprisoned."


    "Although Zhang Yang was imprisoned in the prefecture, after all, he has served as Hanoi Prefecture for many years and has considerable strength. If we can make use of publicity, incite civil strife, or give us convenience, we can win this war. "


    Pang Tong put forward his views.


    Both Yang Xiu and Pang Tong expressed their opinions.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu still did not express her opinion.


    Pang Tong''s strategy is also difficult to implement, because Zhang Yang is imprisoned by Zhang Yan. It''s not easy to contact Zhang Yang, and it''s not easy to let Zhang Yang do it.


    The feasibility is not high.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, soldiers came. The soldier came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "general, there is a man who calls himself Zhang Chong and comes to see him on the order of Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang."


    "Bring it here!"


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows pick, heart suddenly rose hope.


    Maybe it''s an opportunity.


    There is no breakthrough in the current situation, but what Zhang Xiu needs is an opportunity.


    The soldiers went to send orders. Soon, Zhang Chong came to Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Chong saw Zhang Xiu, there was a sense of consternation on his face, because Zhang Xiu was too young and his beard was not even long.


    However, Zhang Xiu looks handsome, a pair of sharp eyes, deep eyes, as if to see through the heart, let Zhang Chong heart a Lin.Zhang Chong took a deep breath and said, "little Zhang Chong, meet general Zhang."


    Zhang Xiu said slowly: "I heard that Zhang Yang was imprisoned and could not arrange things on his own. You''ve been ordered to come. What''s the matter. What''s more, how did you leave the prefecture and huaixian county? "


    The fierce Zhang Chong secretly embroiders a way.


    Unexpectedly know the situation in huaixian City, and a word said the key.


    Zhang Chong replied, "report back to General Zhang, although the prefect''s residence is surrounded by groups and is not allowed to enter or leave, the prefect''s residence has its own secret way to get out of the city. General Zhang, please read the letter to find out the details. "


    With that, Zhang Chong took out the letter.


    The soldier took it and handed it to Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu opened the letter and read it again, her eyebrows rose and she fell into meditation.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu said: "you wait for a moment. I will think about it and write back."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Chong answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and a soldier took Zhang Chong to one side.


    After Yang Xiu and Sima Yi finished reading the letter, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang Yang is going to ask for help through the letter and is ready to cooperate with us inside and outside. What do you think of it? "


    Pang Tong took the lead in saying: "Lord, if this is true, it will be a chance for us to break the city. But what if you enter the city and you are ambushed? "


    "Of course, everyone knows that Xue Tao is publicly resented."


    "It should be true."


    "The question is, is Zhang Yang the only one who knows the secret of Zhang Yang''s mansion? In case Zhang Yan knows about the secret road through other means. "


    "Once our army enters through the secret Road, it will become a turtle in a jar."


    Pang Tong''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "it''s hard to judge the current situation for a moment. But if you let it go, it''s a waste of opportunity. If troops are sent in, they may be ambushed. "


    The most difficult thing is to make a decision.


    In a moment, it is possible to decide the victory or defeat of this war, and also the life and death of countless soldiers.


    No one can make a decision easily.


    After thinking about it, Yang Xiusi also found it difficult. I didn''t know the situation before, and there was no way to attack huaixian county. But now that I know the situation, I feel embarrassed.


    Yang Xiushen took a breath and said, "I agree with Pang Shangshu''s analysis, but it''s hard to make a decision."


    Zhang Xiu is weighing things in her heart.


    His eyes turned and fell on Sima Yi. Because Sima Yi opened her mouth just now, and she looked like she wanted to stop talking.


    Zhang Xiu knew Sima Yi had something to say and asked, "Zhongda, how do you think about it?"


    Sima Yi looked modest and said, "Pang Shangshu and Yang Changshi are right in their consideration. Both of them are intelligent and reasonable. In fact, I think that the reason why it is difficult to make a decision is to have a preconceived judgment and consider whether to advance or not. But for us, with the secret message, we have another choice. "

 Chapter 405

    Zhang Xiu asked: "what choice?"


    Sima Yi replied: "in fact, just knowing that there is a secret road leading to Huai county is enough for us to operate this matter. We don''t care about Tian Feng''s plan in this war, because we don''t have to go into the city. "


    "What we want to use is the secret Road near the wall."


    "Dig through tunnels."


    "Dig a distance of several feet along the city wall and support it with wooden piles. After digging a distance of several feet, pull all the wooden piles with ropes. If the stake falls, the wall will collapse. "


    Sima Yi had a sharp look on her eyebrows and said, "this battle will be planned separately. We don''t care about Tian Feng''s plan. And we just need to control this secret road. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    This is a typical way of playing. You fight your way and I fight mine. They have their own plans.


    That''s exactly how it works.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Yang Xiu and Pang Tong and said, "what do you think?"


    Pang Tong said: "feasible!"


    Yang xiudao: "it''s really feasible, but there are many details to improve, otherwise it''s easy to be seen through."


    Zhang Xiu also nodded in agreement.


    In order to carry out Sima Yi''s plan, Tian Feng should be concealed first. In the case of not knowing whether the secret road is known by Tian Feng, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to give the plan to Zhang Chong, so corresponding arrangements must be made to ensure that it is safe.


    Four people together, careful discussion, quickly improve the whole plan.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, everything was in order.


    Zhang Xiu immediately wrote a letter, then sealed it, and told the soldiers to bring Zhang Chong, saying: "Zhang Yang''s request, I will agree. Next, Ben will go to huaixian at full speed. Take this letter back to huaixian county and give it to Zhang Yang. It''s all in the letter. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Chong should throw his fist.


    After receiving the letter, Zhang Chong''s heart couldn''t help beating faster.


    After all, it was his first time to be an intern, and he was a little nervous.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Zhang Chong. In his later life, he has studied psychology. After carefully observing Zhang Chong''s expression, she finds that Zhang Chong is indeed suspicious, and her heart is more determined.


    I''m afraid it''s really tricky to let him enter the city by secret road.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t show it. She waved her hand.


    Immediately, Zhang Chong turned and left.


    After Zhang Chong left, the army led by Zhang Xiu continued to drive.


    Zhang Chong rode first and rushed all the way.


    On the way, Zhang Chong didn''t have any delay. Even in the evening, Zhang Chong was on his way. Thanks to his familiarity with the road, he hit a torch at night and went on his way, but he didn''t encounter any obstacles. Finally, he returned to huaixian County smoothly.


    When Zhang Chong returned to huaixian County, he didn''t enter the city by secret route. First, he quietly entered the city by official route and went straight to the outside of the barracks to see him. He entered the Chinese Army''s big account, saw Zhang Yan, and handed over Zhang Xiu''s letter.


    Zhang Yan opened the letter and scanned it quickly.


    After reading the letter, Zhang Yan pondered, sealed it again and gave it to Zhang Chong, saying: "you go out of the city immediately, go back to Zhang Jia by secret way and give it to Zhang Yang. Now you pretend you don''t know anything. Next, everything will be arranged. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Chong was ordered to turn back.


    Zhang Jia immediately invited Tian Feng to come back and said, "military adviser, Zhang Chong has come back and sent a letter from Zhang Xiu. Although this piece of embroidery is young, it is worthy of being a vassal. In his letter, he said two things


    Tian Feng said, "which two things?"


    Zhang jaw look solemn, replied: "first, Zhang Xiu agreed to Zhang Yang''s request, will enter the city through the secret road. Only when we enter the secret Road, the time is not yet determined. Has the final say of Zhang embroidery.


    "Second, Zhang Xiu will arrange soldiers to guard the two ends of the secret road. This means that the control of the secret road is in the hands of Zhang Xiu. For us, it is more difficult to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Jia zhengse said: "Zhang Xiu''s plan is not to guard against publicity, but to guard against us."


    Tian Feng also nodded: "with Zhang Xiu''s intelligence ability, I''m sure I know that Zhang Yang has been elevated, and I also know that Zhang Yang wants revenge. In this premise, Zhang Xiu''s strategy, given too much uncertainty, is to guard against us


    After a pause, Tian Feng continued: "Zhang Xiu didn''t consider whether Zhang Yang was exposed, but whether we knew. Under this premise, it is difficult for us to do everything we can. "


    "What shall we do?" he said


    Tian Feng stroked his beard under his jaw and quickly thought about the countermeasures.


    In order to plan, it must be Zhang Xiu who enters the city.


    A moment later, Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu''s troops are far more than ours. The secret road is narrow, so it is easy to lay an ambush around the prefect''s residence. As long as Zhang Xiu''s army enters the prefecture, we can encircle and annihilate it. "


    "This is our way to break the game."


    "Although Zhang Xiu is on guard, he doesn''t know that Zhang Chong is one of us. So what we have to do is to respond to all changes with constancy and pretend we don''t know for the time being. ""In addition, all the Sentinels ambushed at the entrance of the passage will be withdrawn."


    "What we need to do now is to send soldiers to form an encirclement around the prefect''s residence in addition to the gate of the town. As long as Zhang Xiu''s army enters the city through the secret Road, we will ambush immediately. "


    Tian Feng said: "wait for Zhang Xiu''s army to enter the city."


    "It can only be so," he said


    After they had made up their mind, they said nothing more.


    On the other hand, after Zhang Chong left the city, he entered the city again from the secret road outside the city and returned to the prefecture. As soon as he came out of the secret Road, he quickly went to the library and saw Zhang Yang.


    Today''s publicity is much thinner.


    His eyes were sunken and bloodshot.


    During the period when Zhang Chong left huaixian County, Zhang Yang indulged in wine and sex all day long, and had been hollowed out by wine and sex. As soon as he saw Zhang Chong coming back, he got excited and stood up directly.


    Just just stood up, in front of a dizzy, plop fell to the ground.


    Zhang Chong didn''t help him immediately.


    After a while, seeing that Zhang Yang had not yet got up, he went to help him and pinched him. Zhang Chong knows the situation of publicity, excessive indulgence and no control at all, which leads to such a situation.


    Zhang Yang regained his mind and sat down slowly.


    He looked at Zhang Chong with an expectant look in his eyes and asked, "how''s it going? What''s the situation?"


    Zhang Chong took out the letter, handed it to Zhang Yang and said, "my Lord, Zhang Xiu has agreed."


    Zhang Yang quickly opened the letter. He read it at a glance and frowned after reading it quickly. Because in Zhang Xiu''s letter, there was no time to enter the city, which made Zhang Yang''s heart hang in the air.


    Zhang Yang asked: "Zhang Chong, did Zhang Xiu not say when to enter the city?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Chong replied.


    Zhang Yang once again said: "Zhang Xiu promised to enter the city, did not say anything else?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Chong nodded.


    Zhang Yang slapped his hand on the table and said angrily, "Zhang Xiu doesn''t trust me. He''s afraid that I and Zhang Yan will work together to calculate him. So he has to control the secret road. He doesn''t know when to enter the secret road. He''s too deceiving."


    Zhang Chong said: "my Lord, no matter what, Zhang Xiu will enter the city. We just need to arrange for people to wait at the exit of the secret passage. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Yang nods and answers.


    He waved his hand and asked Zhang Chong to step down before he arranged to wait at the secret crossing.


    He is looking forward to the day when publicity comes.


    He wants revenge!


    He''s going to kill Xue Tao!

 Chapter 406

    In November, the days shorten, the nights increase and the weather gets colder.


    Between heaven and earth, more cold.


    The north wind howls, the cold wind blows into the neck, which makes people shiver.


    All the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command wear thick clothes. The army arrived in huaixian in early November and stopped outside the east gate of huaixian.


    The soldiers are in high spirits.


    Zhang Xiu is not eager to go to the north gate, but is still stationed outside the east gate.


    Dressed in armor and a white cloak, he rode his horse. Zhang Xiu raised her head and her eyes fell on the tower. He knew that Zhang Ya, Tian Feng and Wen Chou must be on the tower.


    "The general Zhang Xiu, where is the literary ugliness?"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu came up, she called out Wen Chou''s name.


    In Zhang Jia, Wen Chou and Tian Fengzhong, Wen Chou is a real general. He has a short temper and is easy to pry. It is almost impossible for such a wise general as Zhang Yan to stir up trouble.


    The reason is very simple, Zhang jaw is both civil and military, is a wise general.


    Wen Chou is full of hatred for Zhang Xiu.


    He had long wanted to kill Zhang Xiu and save Yan Liang. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, Wen Chou was envious of his enemies. He immediately stood at the head of the city and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, you''ve finally come to die. Good. Ben would have wanted to kill you


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun went up, pointed at Wen Chou from a distance, and said, "Wen Chou, how dare you go out of the city?"


    Fighting is the best way.


    If Wenchou goes out of the city, Zhang Xiu can leave Wenchou through martial arts competition. As long as you win the literary ugliness, it is equivalent to cutting off one of Zhang''s arms.


    Wen Chou was a fierce general. He immediately roared: "Zhang Xiu, you wait for me."


    He turned and was about to go out.


    But when Wen Chou was ready to go down to the city tower, he was stopped by Zhang Yan and said, "general Wen, Zhang Xiu has excellent martial arts. He is not easy to be with. I don''t agree with you going out of the city. "


    "Get out of here!"


    Wen Chou angrily opened his eyes and yelled, "if you stop me, don''t blame me for doing it."


    He frowned and looked at Tian Feng.


    At this time, Tian Feng said: "no harm, let general Wen go to war. General Wen is a famous general in Hebei Province, with excellent martial arts. Zhang Xiu dares to challenge him and let him taste the power of general Wen. "


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "military division, you..."


    Wen Chou snorted, glanced at Zhang''s jaw, clapped his open arm with his palm, and went straight down the road to the city tower.


    Tian Feng looked at Wen Chou''s back and said, "General Zhang, it''s better to block than to sparse. It''s not the way to suppress him. Literary ugliness is like a fire. In ordinary times, if people fight, they will fight. What''s more, Yan Liang is in the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    "At this time, can it work to stop the literary ugliness?"


    "So let him out of town."


    Tian Feng said: "even if Zhang Xiu is powerful, the literary ugliness is not ordinary. At least, it''s OK for the literati to protect themselves. "


    Zhang Yan is also good at martial arts. After pondering, he said: "according to the information, Zhang Xiu is good at martial arts. However, Wen Chou is a first-class master. He should be able to protect himself. "


    "That''s enough."


    Tian Feng said: "let him go out of the city and fight with Zhang Xiu to vent his anger. Proper fighting can also ease the mood of literary ugliness. However, general Zhang should pay close attention to the situation outside the city. If something goes wrong, you should use your bow and arrow. "


    Zhang chin nodded and said nothing more.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hoof, the sound of the horse''s hoof.


    Creak!


    The gate was opened, and a man and a horse rushed out.


    Wenchou came out of the city, his eyes wide open, holding a nine foot long sword. The blade was trailing behind, clattering. Under the winter sun, the blade reflects light and casts cold.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Wen Chou yelled, and his horse was as fast as lightning. In an instant, he came to Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    Wen Chou swung the long knife in his hand and chopped it down.


    The blade breaks through the air like thunder.


    Zhang Xiu''s legs clamped the horse''s belly firmly. He kicked the horse''s belly and stepped forward obliquely in pursuit of the wind. Instead of facing Wen Chou, he faced Wen Chou obliquely.


    In this way, the knife of the literary ugliness is bound to turn.


    The knife''s power was affected immediately.


    Rao is so, Wenchou''s knife just slightly deflected, then fell down quickly, vowing to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is decisive.


    Goose egg thick overlord gun, rotating in the air, did not stab out, head-on hit.


    Sword light and gun shadow emerge one after another.


    "Dang!"


    When the two weapons collided, sparks even sparkled at the place where they collided, and even the smell of burning after severe friction diffused.


    Under the powerful counter shock, Wen Chou''s hands were the first to be impacted. At the moment, he felt numb at the mouth of the tiger, his arms trembled slightly, and his rough cheek trembled, as if he had been impacted.Zhang Xiuli stood on the horse''s back, motionless as a mountain. As soon as she shook and unloaded, she unloaded the power of impact without being affected at all.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has no strength.


    Even Huang Zhong, who was at the peak of his career, couldn''t compare with Zhang Xiu in strength, let alone in literary ugliness.


    When Zhang Xiugang came back, he didn''t eat much meat. Up to now, he has eaten a lot of meat in one meal. Only in this way can we have enough strength and physical strength.


    This is the impact of the continued growth of power.


    But it had little influence on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu a move to power, Overlord gun again in the air rotation. The goose''s thick barrel of the gun poured down like the Tianhe River and fell down immediately.


    Wen Chou quickly raised his sword to block it.


    "Dang!"


    The overlord''s gun fell on the handle of the knife. In an instant, Wen Chou''s body trembled, and he almost could not hold the sword in his hand.


    At this moment, Wen Chou was awe inspiring.


    Zhang Xiu is so strong.


    Wenchou heart awe inspiring, hastily urged the horse under the crotch to run, wrong body to avoid Zhang Xiu. He ran ten steps forward before turning the dock to face Zhang Xiu.


    In this way, it soothes the arm and the numb palm.


    Wenchou saw Zhang Xiu''s tyrannical power, and had a care in his heart. He knew that as soon as he came up, he would attack Zhang Xiu with 100% of his strength, but Zhang Xiu was extremely powerful. His confrontation with Zhang Xiu was to attack each other with his own short points.


    This is the most unwise.


    Zhang Xiu also turned her horse''s head and looked at Wen Chou in front of her again. She said with a smile, "Wen Chou, do you know that Yan Liang has been tortured by me. The tendons of his hands and feet were broken. He''s full of front teeth. I knocked him out. This is the result of his loyalty to Yuan Shao. "


    "Zhang Xiu, damn you!"


    Wen Chou was angry again when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    A pair of eyes, become red.


    The reason in his brain, stimulated by Zhang Xiu''s words, immediately disappeared. There is only one idea left in Wenchou''s mind, that is to kill Zhang Xiu and avenge Yan Liang.


    He could imagine the pain of being torn off.


    He could imagine the pain of being beaten back.


    He can imagine Yan Liang''s expression of pain, but still insist.


    He wants to avenge Yan Liang.


    "Take your life!"


    Wen Chou tried his best to roar, and once again urged his horse to charge. In the twinkling of an eye, Wenchou arrives at Zhang Xiu. He swings his sword. He wrists his waist to exert his power. When he approaches Zhang Xiu, he swings his sword to cut her.


    The blade is flat and straight under Zhang Xiu''s rib.


    With the power of literary ugliness, if this knife falls on Zhang Xiu''s ribs, it will be enough to cut Zhang Xiu''s ribs, and then cut Zhang Xiu''s body into two parts.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Zhang Xiu raises the gun lattice block, in the blade bumps on the gun barrel''s instantaneous, Zhang Xiu hand outward a top, easily swings open this knife.


    Overlord gun, quick stab.


    A little cold, flashing in the air.


    Wenchou in the hand of the long knife back to block, but Zhang Xiu but change move, stab a shot up, again hard hit. Wen Chou was caught unprepared and blocked in a hurry.


    A shot fell, a knife and a gun hit, and the literary clown suddenly couldn''t prevent it. He snorted. The mouth of his hand holding the sword was torn, and there was blood spilling over his palm.


    "Die


    At the moment when Wenchou was repressed again, Zhang Xiu raised the gun, drew back the gun, stabbed the gun at Wenchou''s heart, and took Wenchou''s heart.

 Chapter 407

    Zhang Xiu looked at Yan Liang and said in a loud voice: "Yan Liang is a tough man with a strong character. Die loyal to Yuan Shao, rather die than surrender. Alas, I would like to have such a loyal and good general. "


    "Ben would like to worship Yan Liang as a general, but unfortunately, he is not willing to accept it."


    "What a pity!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words were introduced into the city upstairs.


    All the soldiers on the upper floor of the city heard Zhang Xiu''s words. The soldiers admired Yan Liang even more. Because in the face of life and death, many people can not ignore life and death.


    Yan Liang did it.


    Yan Liang would rather die than surrender.


    When Wenchou heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he grasped the hand of the city wall and even more. His face was even more solemn. Just like this, he looked at Zhang Xiu in the eyes, more hatred and resentment.


    Damn Zhang Xiu!


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu immediately.


    But it''s impossible.


    Tian Feng listened to Zhang Xiu and narrowed his eyes. Just now after a dialogue with Zhang Xiu, let him understand Zhang Xiu''s temperament, this is a very powerful person.


    It''s impossible to praise people easily.


    In other words, Zhang Xiu does not do meaningless things.


    On the surface, it is meaningless for Zhang Xiu to praise Yan Liang. So when Tian Feng heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he subconsciously inferred that Zhang Xiu must have a conspiracy.


    Zhang Yan also took a look at Tian Feng.


    In Zhang''s eyes, there are worries.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu said again: "Zhang jaw, dare to reply?"


    "Ben will be here!"


    Zhang answered in a loud voice. He was very alert in his heart and handled it carefully.


    Zhang xiulang said: "it''s a pity to kill a man like Yan Liang. This is true for Yuan Shao and Ben Jiang. As long as you withdraw from Huai County, Yan Liang will be released. It''s a steady business to trade a county for a Yan Liang. Would you like to


    His face changed greatly when he opened his jaw.


    He finally understood that the ultimate killer of Zhang Xiu was here.


    First establish Yan Liang''s loyalty and bravery, and then take Yan Liang as an exchange.


    The question is, can Zhang hand over huaixian?


    Of course not.


    If Zhang was handed over to huaixian County, he would lose the ability of protection. Even if he got Yan Liang temporarily, Zhang had to withdraw. Because Zhang Xia''s troops are weaker than Zhang Xiu''s.


    Once the two armies face-to-face confrontation, constant consumption, Zhang jaw finally the first to support, not to mention Zhang Xiu has long been prepared, once Zhang jaw left huaixian, is likely to be ambushed.


    So it''s impossible for Zhang to hand over huaixian.


    In his opinion, if we use only huaixian County, we can get Yan Liang back. That''s the most cost-effective thing.


    Wen Chou said immediately, "General Zhang, it''s feasible. It''s absolutely feasible."


    Tian Feng sighed.


    If they didn''t tell Zhang Xiu about the secret road earlier, and only they knew the secret Road, they would be able to get out of Huai county and plan carefully.


    Now it''s not worth it.


    Zhang Xiu knew the existence of secret Road, this secret road has no use value.


    For a moment, he didn''t know how to answer Wen Chou, so he looked at Tian Feng and hoped that Tian Feng would solve the problem. But Tian Feng turned his eyes and looked out of the city.


    He didn''t know what to say.


    If you don''t save Yan Liang, you''ll be the enemy of Wen Chou.


    Seeing that Tian Feng was unwilling to speak, Zhang jaw sighed: "general Wen, we can''t lose Huai County in the current situation. Once we withdraw from huaixian County, on the one hand, the grain is difficult to carry, on the other hand, we will be exposed to Zhang Xiu''s army. Such a situation is quite dangerous. "


    Wen Chou said in a deep voice: "Zhang jaw, is a word, whether you want to save your brother."


    He regards Yan Liang as his elder brother.


    When Yan Liang is in danger, Wen Chou hopes to save Yan Liang back.


    Zhang Yan says: "it''s not that we don''t save him, it''s that we can''t exchange now. It''s almost the same if you change the condition


    "You..."


    Wenchou was furious at once.


    His eyes fell on Tian Feng and he gritted his teeth and said, "military strategist, is it worth exchanging huaixian for elder brother? The elder brother threw his head and blood for the Lord and made great achievements. Is it not worth a Huai county? Not to mention Huai County, even if it''s the whole Hanoi County in exchange, it''s worth it. "


    Tian Feng said: "don''t worry, general Wen. You, me or general Zhang want to save Yan Liang. You say, don''t you? "


    "No!"


    Wen Chou gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Yan just doesn''t want to save his elder brother. He did it on purpose."


    Zhang Yan''s heart is about to vomit blood.


    Stupid literary ugliness.


    When he came to Hanoi, Zhang had a premonition that Yan Liang might become a burden. At that time, Zhang jaw had considered what to do in case Yan Liang''s life was involved?Tian Feng said at that time that for the sake of the overall interests of the army, he could only ignore Yan Liang''s life.


    But now, the responsibility is on his back.


    He''ll carry the pot.


    Zhang chin felt helpless and took a deep breath: "general Wen, we have agreed with Zhang Xiu now. But once we leave huaixian, we are rootless. If we retreat now, we will let Zhang Xiu grasp the handle. "


    Wen Chou said angrily, "I will report this to my Lord."


    Zhang jaw is extremely helpless.


    At this time outside the city, Zhang Xiu saw that there was no movement on the upper floor of the city, and said again: "Zhang jaw, are you not willing to save Yan Liang. Alas, I, Zhang Xiu, have always believed that if we save people and lose land, we can save people and land. Save the land and lose the people. Even if you control Huai County, it''s not worth losing Yan Liang. "


    Zhang Jia is even more angry. Zhang Xiu is too cunning. She uses Yan Liang as a breakthrough and presses her step by step.


    Zhang jaw clenched his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu, even if you use Yan Liang to threaten me, I will not be threatened. Ben will lead the army, right here. I''ll see how you can break huaixian. "


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s persecution, Zhang''s jaw shows the iron side.


    He didn''t want to offend people.


    But now, he has to make a choice. Even if he refuses to rescue Yan Liang, he will offend Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but all these things must be done.


    Because he can''t retreat!


    The result that Zhang Xiu most hopes to see is Zhang''s dead shoulder to the end. Only in this way can we further coerce Zhang Yan and further stir up the relationship between Zhang Yan and literary ugliness.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Zhang jaw, Zhang jaw, your heart is as strong as iron. In my opinion, if Yuan Shao is here, if Yan Liang''s life is involved, Yuan Shao will also withdraw. "


    "You don''t care."


    "Your refusal angered Ben. Ben will tell you that the conditions have changed. "


    "If you withdraw from huaixian county now, your life will be safe. If you stay in huaixian, Yan Liang will die. Ben cut Yan Liang in front of everyone. "


    Zhang Xiu''s threat has been strengthened once again.


    The expression on Zhang''s face changed again and again. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s means were so cruel.


    Threaten Yan Liang''s life.


    If he didn''t care about Zhang Xiu before, it would be nothing. But now, if you don''t care about Zhang Xiu, it''s like killing Yan Liang. All the responsibilities are on his back.


    At this moment, Zhang was also in a dilemma.


    If he refuses Zhang Xiu, if Zhang Xiu really kills Yan Liang, not only Wenchou will hate him, but Yuan Shao may also be dissatisfied with what he has done.


    However, if he withdraws from huaixian County, the army will be defeated. Once the whole army is defeated, he will also be criticized.


    This is a dilemma.


    What to do?


    Zhang Yan''s heart, heart incomparable dilemma.


    Zhang chin looked at Tian Feng and said in a deep voice, "military adviser, what do you think we should do now?"

 Chapter 408

    On Tian Feng''s angular cheek, there was a look of embarrassment. When it comes to Yan Liang''s life, Tian Feng hesitates for a moment. When he came, Tian Feng once said that he would not hesitate to sacrifice Yan Liang for the sake of the overall situation.


    When things come to an end, they are in a dilemma.


    After all, it was Yan Liang''s life.


    However, although Tian Feng was in a dilemma, he was not indecisive. He soon made a decision and said in a deep voice: "in today''s situation, we have no choice. If Zhang Xiu wants to kill her, she can only let him kill her. "


    After a pause, Tian Feng said: "Zhang Yan, you are the general of the first army. Won''t you weigh the pros and cons? Under the current situation, where can Yan Liang''s life be taken care of. If because of Yan Liang, huaixian lost. It''s going to be very bad for us. "


    Zhang Xia knew in his heart that throwing the ground had a voice: "Zhang Xiu, even if you threaten Yan Liang''s life, it won''t help. Ben will be in huaixian county. He can''t be threatened by you. If you want to kill Yan Liang, kill him. "


    Wen Chou''s face was blue and he clenched his fist.


    That''s his elder brother Yan Liang.


    Although they are not brothers, their feelings are incomparably deep. Either Tian Feng or Zhang Yan did not care about Yan Liang''s life.


    Wen Chou clenched his teeth and pleaded: "General Zhang, commander Tian, your life is in your hands. Please, help him. We''ll just retreat. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang and Tian answered at the same time.


    Both had a decision.


    I didn''t make up my mind before. I was in a dilemma, but I didn''t hesitate to speak out.


    Zhang Xiu heard Zhang''s words, but she was happy in her heart.


    That''s what he wanted.


    It''s about conflict.


    Only Zhang''s refusal can intensify the conflict among Zhang, Wen Chou and Tian Feng.


    Zhang xiudao: "Zhang jaw, you are so hard hearted."


    Then he turned to Yan Liang and said, "Yan Liang, do you hear Zhang''s answer? His words represent Yuan Shao''s opinions. Now, Yuan Shao abandons you, Zhang Yan does not care about your life or death. Do you still want to be loyal to Yuan Shao? "


    "Better die than surrender!"


    Yan Liang didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    He would not surrender.


    Thanks to Yuan Shao, he would not surrender to the Lord just because he faced life and death.


    Zhang Xiu sighed in her heart.


    Before that, Yan Liang did not surrender. Zhang Xiu wanted to surrender Yan Liang, but Yan Liang refused. Today, Yan Liang is still like this. Zhang Xiu has no choice but to make the most of her martial arts.


    "Come on, break Yan Liang''s legs for me!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    The soldiers came forward, swung the baton and smashed it out.


    "Chaka! Click


    The stick fell on Yan Liang''s leg bone. In an instant, the bone broke. The pain from his leg went to the bone marrow and made Yan Liang miserable. He tried to suppress the pain, but he couldn''t bear it.


    Yan Liang roared: "Zhang Xiu child, you Yan Ye is not down, what can you Nai me?"


    "Ah


    The shrill cry resounded inside and outside the city. All the soldiers heard Yan Liang''s voice.


    "Brother!"


    Wenchou grabs the wall with both hands and roars.


    This moment''s literary ugliness, eyes canthus want to crack, face is full of eager expression. His fingertips clung to the wall, and the back of his hand was full of blue tendons, which was close to the edge of the outbreak.


    Zhang Jia didn''t say a word, his face was solemn, and he secretly scolded Zhang Xiu for her cunning.


    If you want to kill Yan Liang, just kill him.


    It''s just that I''m so procrastinating.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention to stimulate the literary ugliness and make it uncomfortable.


    When Zhang Xi scolded, Zhang Xiu said again: "Zhang Xi, it seems that you really don''t care about Yan Liang''s life. Yan Liang was loyal to Yuan Shao. He was so tough. If he was willing to work for me, let alone a county, he would have recognized it even if it was a county. Unfortunately, he would rather die loyal to Yuan Shao than submit to me. "


    Every sentence, like a knife, poked into Zhang''s heart, which made Zhang extremely uncomfortable.


    It''s hard to play against Zhang Xiu.


    Tian Feng frowned, but Zhang Xiu didn''t follow the common sense.


    Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu saw Yan Liang did not fall, Zhang jaw also regardless, should attack the city directly. In other words, Zhang Xiu knows that there are secret roads in the city, so she should enter the city quietly.


    Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu didn''t do anything. She didn''t attack the city or enter the city by secret ways. Instead, she threatened Yan Liang.


    It''s hard.


    Although Zhang Jia and Tian Feng suffered, they didn''t feel as painful as Wen Chou.


    Zhang Xiu a little bit of stimulation, a little bit of provocation, let Wenchou heart suffering, like a steel needle into. Especially Yan Liang would rather die than surrender, and Wen Chou couldn''t help it.


    Wen Chou ignored Zhang Yan, turned around, looked at the army on the upper floor of the city, and tried to roar: "sons, general Yan is outside the city. Those of you who are willing to fight with us will follow me. We don''t want to save people, we just want a war, we just want revenge. ""Kill


    On the tower, there were many soldiers shouting.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    More and more soldiers agreed.


    "Kill the enemy as you will!"


    Wenchou''s big sleeve flicked, carrying his sword, and once again walked down the chidao road to the city.


    When Wen Chou was about to go down the castle, Tian Feng yelled, "Wen Chou, do you want to disobey the military order without authorization?"


    Wen Chou angrily opened his eyes and said, "Tian Feng, you go your way. I''ll cross my log bridge. Don''t blame me for my ruthlessness when you stop me. This battle is my choice, it has nothing to do with you. "


    At this moment, Wen Chou has lost his mind and only wants to go out of the city.


    Don''t ask for saving people, just for a war.


    Don''t ask for help, just peace of mind.


    Zhang Ya didn''t stop him, because he knew the character of Wen Chou. Now Wen Chou is completely crazy and can''t stop him.


    Tian Feng didn''t want Wen Chou to transfer troops. He was upright. When Wen Chou wanted to go his own way, Tian Feng said in a voice: "the Lord has orders. Zhang jaw is the main general. I''m the military commander. You are only a deputy general and have no right to mobilize the army. "


    Wenchou swung the blade, only to hear a hum, the blade on Tian Feng''s body. Wen Chou''s eyes were sharp and said, "as long as you stop me, I will kill you. It''s a big deal. If I kill you, I''ll plead with my Lord. "


    With that, Wen Chou looked at Zhang''s jaw and said, "if you open your jaw, it''s the same."


    "Follow me out of town!"


    Wen Chou takes back his sword and goes down to the castle immediately.


    Tian Feng drew his cheek and opened his mouth to speak, but he didn''t stop him in the end.


    A group of soldiers, follow Wen Chou.


    As a matter of fact, most of these soldiers were directly related to Wen Chou. They were trained by Wen Chou. They were influenced by Wen Chou, so they all went to war with Wen Chou. The number of soldiers is not large, there are more than 3000 elite soldiers.


    Wen Chou is in a rage. Even if there are tens of thousands of troops outside the city, he wants to fight.


    "Creak!"


    The gate opened, and Wenchou rode out with his soldiers. The long sword in his hand pointed to the outside of the city and said: "sons, follow me to kill and save Yan Liang."


    "Kill


    Three thousand soldiers are like tigers.


    One by one holding the ring head knife, fast forward.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and asked the soldiers to take Yan Liang to the back, then waved.


    Huang Zhong went to war immediately.


    Huang Zhong also mobilized 3000 Feixiong troops to fight in this battle. The mighty soldiers entered the battlefield and soon fought with Wenchou''s army.


    In the battle between the two armies, the soldiers of the flying bear army either formed an array of two or three and rushed back and forth on the battlefield.


    Soon, the ugly soldiers were in trouble.


    Huang Zhong also began to fight with Wen Chou.


    They both use swords, but Wen Chou is in front of Huang Zhong. Even if Wen Chou is good at martial arts, he is not as good as Huang Zhong. What''s more, when Wenchou and Zhang Xiu fought each other before, the tiger''s mouth was torn and his strength was damaged, and he was not Huang Zhong''s opponent.


    Less than half a quarter of an hour after the fight, the literati and clowns were defeated.


    Even if Wenchou''s army could not bear the attack, it quickly retreated to the gate.


    Wenchou can''t stop Huang Zhong''s attack. He is filled with resentment. His blood is cold and helpless. Although he wants to save Yan Liang, the reality is extremely cruel.


    Wenchou made a fierce attack and forced Huang Zhong to retreat. After that, he turned the dock and retreated quickly.


    Wenchou chose to retreat.


    He can''t save Yan Liang.


    When the army retreated, Huang Zhong didn''t go forward to cover up or take advantage of the situation. He just mobilized the soldiers to withdraw and return to the army.

 Chapter 409

    Zhang Xiuyan looked back at Wen Chou, looked up at the city floor, and said with a smile: "Zhang jaw, how can you become a mute in front of this general and dare not speak."


    "To tell you the truth, Wenchou is defeated."


    "But Ben would have admired him!"


    "No matter what, he dares to fight and fight for his brother."


    "Even if you lose, it''s admirable."


    Zhang Xiu constantly hit Zhang jaw and said again: "but throughout your Zhang jaw, you are shrinking in huaixian city from beginning to end. You dare not say a word. I think yuan Benchu is blind when a man like you is in charge of the army. "


    My jaw is numb.


    But Zhang tiexiu couldn''t refute it completely.


    Tian Feng had seen Zhang Xiu''s sharp words before, but he didn''t say a word. It''s not that they are in a disadvantageous position now. If Yan Liang is not in Zhang Xiu''s hands, everything is easy to say.


    The problem is that Yan Liang is in the hands of Zhang Xiu. All of Zhang Xiu''s attacks are based on Zhang''s failure to rescue Yan Liang. In fact, Zhang was unable to rescue Yan Liang.


    This led to the tragedy of Zhang.


    When Zhang Xiu finished her words, she saw that there was no movement on the upper floor of the city. After waiting for a long time, she said again: "Zhang Yan, I will say it for the last time. Withdraw from Huai County immediately, otherwise, Ben will kill Yan Liang. If Yan Liang is killed, it''s all your responsibility. "


    Cold words spread to the tower.


    Zhang Xiu frowns. Zhang Xiu is really annoying.


    Talk on and on.


    At this time, Wenchou ascended the castle again. When he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his heart trembled. His eyes fell on Zhang Xian. He lifted his robe and knelt down on the ground, saying: "General Zhang Xian, I beg you. Please, help my brother


    He kowtowed to the ground with his head, grieving in his heart.


    There is gold under the man''s knees. He kneels to his parents. He is willing to bend his knees for the sake of his elder brother.


    He really can''t help it.


    In the battle with Zhang Xiu, he intends to capture Zhang Xiu alive in exchange for Yan Liang. However, he is not only defeated, but also torn by Zhang Xiu. Even he himself is almost killed.


    He led his troops out of the city to save Yan Liang, but in front of Zhang Xiu''s army, he couldn''t break through the formation of the other side, and even his soldiers suffered heavy losses.


    Literary ugliness has been exhausted.


    Zhang Yan saw the style of the literary clown, and he had only one idea in his heart. Is the literary clown from Zhang Xiu?


    Don''t talk about the overall situation at all.


    There is no overall view at all, and he is embarrassed every time.


    Zhang took a deep breath and said, "general Wen, get up. It''s not that I don''t save Yan Liang, it''s the current situation, and I have no choice. I am ordered by my Lord to be responsible for the war. "


    "It''s my responsibility!"


    Zhang jaw eyes gradually become sharp, biting teeth, the voice answers.


    In his heart, Wen Chou was helpless. He looked at Tian Feng again and said, "military adviser, please help me. As long as you save my brother, I''m grateful to you. Even if I go up the mountain and down the sea of fire, I will do what you tell me. "


    Tian Feng wanted to help Wen Chou, but it didn''t help. In desperation, Tian Feng said nothing more. He stood up and said, "general Wen, I''m sorry!"


    There is nothing he can do.


    Wenchou clenched his fist and beat the ground hard.


    He stood up, widened a pair of tiger eyes canthus, gritted his teeth and roared: "Zhang Xiu, if you kill my brother. This life, even if heaven and earth, even if the ends of the earth, I Wenchou, is bound to kill you. If I don''t kill you, I swear not to be a man. "


    Crystal tears, from the eyes of Wenchou.


    A moment later, tears fell.


    Bean big tears, constantly falling from the cheek, as if broken line of raindrops, wet clothes.


    Don''t play with tears!


    Only, not to the sad place.


    Seeing the failure of rescuing Yan Liang, Wen Chou''s heart was full of helplessness and pain.


    Tian Feng and Zhang Yan were silent.


    Both of them are very sad.


    Zhang Xiu heard the words of Wen Chou, knew Zhang Yan and others'' decision, obviously did not want Yan Liang''s life. Under such circumstances, if Yan conscience died, Zhang Xiu could still recruit Yan Liang.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Yan Liang who was pulled out again and finally asked, "Yan Liang, I will ask you again. Are you willing to submit to the general and serve me


    "No way!"


    Yan Liang said: "I Yan Liang, life is the Lord''s person, death is the Lord''s ghost. Zhang Xiu, even if I die, I will turn into a ghost to find you. I would rather die than surrender


    "What a pity


    With a sigh, Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand like lightning and grasped the overlord gun on the ground.


    One shot in the hand, the point of the gun.


    Cold forest in the air flash away, in a flash, then to Yan Liang''s body.


    Puchi!


    The tip of the gun penetrated Yan Liang''s heart. In a flash, the red blood splashed out like a spring.Yan Liang snorted, but a smile suddenly appeared on his face.


    He laughed and opened his mouth as if to speak. But with Zhang Xiu''s long gun drawn out, everything in front of Yan Liang''s eyes quickly became dark, and his eyes whirled.


    The next moment, Yan Liang lost consciousness.


    Yan Liang''s head dropped, without breath, leaving only the wound on his chest, gurgling with warm blood. After Yan Liang is killed, the overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is inserted on the ground again.


    Wen Chou''s cheek twitched. At first, he choked, but at last, he cried and beat the wall with his hands.


    Dead!


    His brother is dead!


    The scene of Wen Chou crying is silent.


    The soldiers guarding the city on the city tower looked very lonely.


    These soldiers were moved by the literary ugliness.


    Although Zhang Yan was sad, he was also relieved.


    It''s good to die.


    At least, it solved the problem.


    Just in Zhang Yan''s heart, when he just relaxed, he heard Zhang Xiu''s voice again: "Zhang Yan, Tian Feng, although Yan Liang is dead, there is still one person. I will let you see him."


    As Zhang Xiu''s words fall, a prison car is pushed out.


    The man inside is Xu you.


    Yan Liang was a general in the army, while Xu you was Yuan Shao''s counselor. When Xu you was pushed out, Zhang jaw and Tian Feng looked at each other, and they were crying in their hearts.


    Two people did not expect, just after a problem, there is a problem.


    You don''t have to guess. It''s a tough choice.


    When it comes to Xu you''s life, what should they do? However, with Yan Liang''s affairs, they will not feel too embarrassed about Xu you''s life and death.


    One is dead. Do you care about the second one?


    Zhang xiulang said: "Tian Feng, I''m going to pull Xu you out. This is your colleague and one of Yuan Shao''s most important advisers. As long as you withdraw from Huai County, you will be released. "


    "No way!"


    Tian Feng answered without hesitation.


    Tian Feng didn''t like Xu you very much. In Tian Feng''s opinion, Xu you is greedy and selfish. It''s better for such a person to die on the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu turned to look at Xu you and tut tut said: "Xu you, Xu you, you are a failure. You see, I just let Tian Feng withdraw from Huai county and release you. But he didn''t agree. "


    Xu you was very angry.


    Angry at Tian Feng''s ruthlessness, he secretly hates Tian Feng for not saving him.


    Xu you bit his teeth and said in a loud voice: "Tian Yuanhao, you are the master''s counselor, so am I. You are my Lord. I''ll tell you now, withdraw from huaixian County immediately. "


    "No way!"


    Tian Feng refused directly.


    Xu you''s cheek twitched, and his face looked even more resentful.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Xu you, don''t waste your efforts. Tian Feng is upright and can''t retreat for you. It''s useless to ask Tian Feng, but Zhang Yan is the chief General. Let''s see how Zhang Yan answers. I''ll try to open my jaw in the future

 Chapter 410

    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said: "Zhang Yan, Yan Liang died on the battlefield because of your ruthlessness. Now, it''s Xu you''s turn. Xu you is in front of our general. I''ll give you a choice. Withdraw from huaixian County, and we''ll release Xu you. Tian Feng is only a military strategist. You are the chief general, so you have the real decision-making power. Do you want to save Xu you? "


    Zhang Xia hears Zhang Xiu''s words, secretly scolds Zhang Xiu''s shamelessness, and then comes to make trouble for him. But no matter how he answers, it doesn''t matter.


    Anyway, Yan Liang died.


    Xu you is dying, too.


    Even after returning to Jizhou, Yuan Shao would punish him, which is a done thing.


    Zhang Jia zhengse said: "Zhang Xiu, you don''t have to play such a trick. No matter who you are, I can''t give it up. If you want to kill Xu you, just kill him. "


    Zhang Xiu turned to look at Xu you, shrugged and joked: "Xu you, you are really a failure. In other words, when Yan Liang was killed, Wen Chou worked hard for him, and Wen Chou cried for him. Now it''s your turn, but whether it''s Tian Feng or Zhang Yan, they all resolutely refuse. "


    Xu you was so angry that he said angrily, "Zhang jaw, you were blamed by the Lord. It''s my Xu you who speaks in front of my Lord that makes him not punish you. Now that you open your jaw, you are so heartless. "


    "Mr. Xu, this is a battlefield. No wonder I am," he said


    Xu you scolded: "fart battlefield, what''s the difficulty for you to withdraw from huaixian now? As long as you withdraw from huaixian, I will be saved. Open jaw, do you want to see death but not help? "


    Zhang replied, "Mr. Xu, Huai county is an important place in Hanoi county. It''s very important and can''t be lost. This is related to the overall situation of the Lord. I can''t hand over huaixian. "


    For Zhang Yan, he has ignored Yan Liang''s life and death.


    No matter what Xu you said, it is impossible for Xu you to withdraw from huaixian County even if he broke his words. Otherwise, Wen Chou would not be able to give Yuan Shao a hand.


    If you want to die, just two of you.


    He won''t save any of them.


    "You, you..."


    In Xu you''s heart, he hated Zhang Yan to death.


    He also hates Tian Feng.


    Because neither Zhang Yan nor Tian Feng cared about his life or death.


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, said: "Xu you, you say that under such circumstances, how should I deal with you?" While talking, Zhang Xiu grabbed the overlord gun and said: "just now, I killed Yan Liang with the overlord gun in my hand. How can I kill you now? "


    "No, no!"


    Xu you shook his head and said, "don''t be impulsive. Don''t be impulsive. Zhang Xiu, I am willing to submit to you, I am willing to work for you. I know Yuan Shao''s countless secrets. As long as you accept me, I will listen to you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I dare not use you!"


    Brush!


    Xu you''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you Xu you such a person, submissive to me, I''m afraid I don''t sleep soundly. In case, when will you betray? If it''s Yan Liang''s surrender, I believe that, because Yan Liang''s promise is a thousand gold, the decision will not change. But you, Xu you, are not a man of promise. "


    Xu you''s face turned pale again.


    Are you going to die?


    The meaning of Zhang Xiu''s words is to kill him.


    If you don''t kill him, why do you say that.


    Xu you was sitting in the prison car. He stood up and kept walking, and quickly said: "General Zhang, I, Xu you, swear to heaven that as long as I obey you, I will never rebel. If you disobey this oath, there will be five thunders in the sky and ten thousand arrows will pierce your heart. You will not die well. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu is still a firm answer.


    He didn''t want to surrender Xu you. Xu you is just a jerk. Such people attach too much importance to interests. If they recruit Xu you, it is not conducive to the unity of their talents. He would rather not recruit Xu you.


    Xu you''s cheek twitched, his heart trembled, and said: "Zhang Xiu, don''t kill me, don''t kill me."


    "Don''t worry, I won''t kill you."


    Zhang Xiu answers.


    His words, let Xu you immediately at ease. But Xu you''s heart, but is puzzled, Zhang Xiu does not surrender him, does not kill him, that still keeps him to do what?


    The look on Xu you''s face was strange and said, "Zhang Xiu, what are you going to do with me?"


    "Let you go!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    "Ah


    After hearing this, Xu you couldn''t help exclaiming. He never thought that Zhang Xiu would not kill him or even release him. For Xu you, it''s just pie in the sky.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Xu you, remember clearly what Tian Feng did to you and what Zhang Yan did to you. Of course, if you go back to Yuan Shao''s command and are willing to swallow your anger and refuse to take revenge, you should have said nothing. "


    Xu you''s brows rise.


    He heard Zhang Xiu''s words and understood her intention.


    It''s about killing people with a knife.But Xu you''s heart, there are still some lonely. Anyway, he is a famous person in the world, but Zhang Xiu doesn''t attract him. This means that Zhang Xiu doesn''t look up to him.


    This is Xu you''s idea after knowing that Zhang Xiu would not kill him and would release him to take revenge.


    People are like this!


    When Xu you worried about his life and death, he wished Zhang Xiu could open up. Zhang Xiu didn''t kill Xu you. At this time, Xu you thought differently. Apart from his resentment towards Tian Feng and Zhang Yan, he was also dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu''s contempt for him.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, open the prison car!"


    Soldiers step forward and open the van.


    Zhang Xiu asked the soldiers to bring a war horse, waved his hand and said: "Xu you, the war horse is for you. Now, you can ride away. Although I didn''t prepare food, as Xu you, I should not worry about food and housing all the way to the north of huaixian county. "


    "Don''t worry, don''t worry!"


    Xu you answered one after another.


    At this moment, Xu you''s face was full of joy.


    This scene falls on the tower.


    Zhang saw it, though he didn''t hear the dialogue, he didn''t know why. But seeing that Xu you was released, I felt strange in my heart. How Xu you was released, and the horses were brought.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said in a loud voice: "Zhang jaw, do you see that, Ben will release Xu you. Next, he will ride back to Yecheng, Jizhou. "


    Brush!


    The color of open jaw changed greatly.


    Just now, Zhang Xiu asked him to withdraw from huaixian County in exchange for Xu you. After Zhang Yan''s strict refusal, Zhang Xiu releases Xu you again, making it clear that it was intentional and that it was intentional to disgust him.


    In other words, deliberately make enemies for him.


    You should know that Xu you is not Yan Liang. Although Yan Liang is a tiger general, his mouth is not very sharp. But Xu you is different. Xu you is Yuan Shao''s counselor. His words are sharp and can confuse right and wrong.


    Although Xu you was once captured by Zhang Xiu, he will still be reused when he returns to Yuan Shao. And this is a great threat to Zhang jaw.


    Zhang chin looked at Tian Feng and said, "what do you want to do, military adviser?"


    Tian Feng said: "what else can we do? This situation is obviously Zhang Xiu''s calculation. So far as he has calculated, there is nothing we can do. Xu you''s temperament, you and I all know, should come sooner or later, also can''t stop. It''s just soldiers coming to cover up the water and the earth! "


    Zhang Yan sighed in his heart, but the expression on his face was bitter.


    The relationship between Tian Feng and Xu you is nothing to deal with, and Tian Feng is not afraid of Xu you, but his jaw is different, and his jaw can''t compare with Xu you.


    Damn Zhang Xiu!


    It''s treacherous.

 Chapter 411

    For a moment, Zhang Yan''s heart even gave birth to the idea of sending soldiers to rob and kill Xu you halfway.


    Kill Xu you, it''s over.


    If you kill Xu you, you will have no worries.


    However, this idea just rose, Zhang jaw then pressed down the idea. Once Xu you died on the way, I''m afraid there will be news that he sent soldiers to kill Xu you.


    When the news came back to Yuan Shao''s desk, he couldn''t get away with it.


    Zhang jaw see Xu you leave, from beginning to end, did not talk with Zhang Xiu.


    That''s it. It''s just a war.


    Zhang Xiu outside the city saw this and knew that under the circumstances of killing Yan Liang and releasing Xu you, Zhang could not do it again.


    He''s going to attack the city, that''s a strong attack.


    But this is not in line with Zhang Xiu''s plan, he no longer stationed, immediately ordered to withdraw, stationed outside huaixian.


    Zhang Xiu''s action is to let Tian Feng and Zhang jaw relax.


    On the one hand, Zhang Xiu puts too much pressure on them; on the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s withdrawal of troops, rather than an impetuous siege of the city, means that Zhang Xiu will arrange people to enter the city in secret ways, and they will have the opportunity to make plans.


    Zhang Xiu''s army withdrew three miles away and stationed in an open place.


    The army encamped.


    After everything was arranged properly, Zhang Xiu went back to the army''s tent to have a rest.


    The sound of footsteps sounded, but Sima Yi strode in.


    Wearing a white robe and a cloak, Sima Yi bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, just got the news, Xu you galloped all the way away from Huai county. It is estimated that Xu you is also worried about being robbed and killed. In fact, I don''t understand my humble position. I''ve already done what Zhang Ya can''t help. Why don''t I rob and kill Xu you halfway. Thoroughly, sit down and kill people. "


    Zhang Xiu put down her book and asked, "Zhong Da, which do you think is better, a living Xu you or a dead Xu you?"


    Sima Yi said, "I think the dead Xu you is more valuable."


    "Why?" Zhang Xiu asked.


    Sima Yi''s eyes were serious and said slowly: "a dead Sima Yi can''t make Zhang Yan jump into the Yellow River. In particular, Wen Chou witnessed with his own eyes that Zhang Ya and Tian Feng didn''t rescue Yan Liang, and they hated each other. "


    "Wenchou can prove that Zhang Yan didn''t save Xu you. So when Xu you was killed after he left, Zhang had a motive. "


    "Yuan Shao was born in a noble family and was a child of a big family. He was quite conceited. He especially valued Yan Liang and Xu you. When both of them died, Yuan Shao was very likely to deal with Zhang Yan. "


    He said, "why did you kill him?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "but you can''t be 100% sure that Yuan Shao will deal with Zhang Yan."


    Sima Yi said: "the probability is very big."


    After a pause, Sima Yi said, "what''s the reason why my Lord didn''t rob and kill Xu you?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "there are three people in my scheme."


    Sima Yi said, "which three people?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the first two are very simple. They are Zhang Yan and Tian Feng."


    "You want to kill Xu you and plant Zhang Ya and Tian Feng. In fact, even if Yuan Shao suspects, it''s impossible to really kill Zhang Ya and Tian Feng. At most, they are idle."


    "Whether Tian Feng or Zhang Yan, they were all the people Yuan Shao relied on."


    "Living Xu you, back under Yuan Shao''s command, has always been selfish and narrow-minded. He will continue to target Tian Feng and Zhang Yan, which will aggravate Yuan Shao''s internal friction."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "why doesn''t a person who constantly creates internal friction and makes Yuan Shao unstable inside stay? Most importantly, Xu you is not a selfless person. He is greedy and selfish, and has enough shortcomings. "


    "Such a person under Yuan Shao''s command could not help Yuan Shao, on the contrary, it would hinder Yuan Shao."


    "The third person I planned was Yuan Shao."


    "Yuan Shao seems to have a decision, but in fact, he lacks his own ideas, is resourceful and self willed."


    "He has a lot of talent."


    "Whether it''s Tian Feng, or Ju Shou, or Guo Tu, or Shen Pei, or even Feng Ji, or Xu you, they are all talented people of the moment. Among these people, Xu you is the most greedy one. "


    "Xu you is the most greedy, and there is conflict with the public."


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "because he and the public conflict, and even he extremely dislike Tian Feng, once these people put forward the appropriate opinion, Tian Feng will fight back."


    "In addition, Ju Shi, Shen Pei and others expressed their own opinions. Because of their many opinions, Yuan Shao could not make a decision. In fact, the more talented Yuan Shao is, the more difficult he is to make a decision. Xu you was left to better influence Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Xiu talks with great eloquence, elaborating what she thinks in her heart.


    Sima Yi''s eyebrows rose.


    His heart is even more surprised, because his picture is Zhang Yan and Tian Feng, but did not expect that Zhang Xiu has focused on dealing with Yuan Shao.


    I know Yuan Shao and Sima Yi.


    But the understanding is limited.Sima Yi also believes that Zhang Xiu''s words are solid, because Zhang Xiu is not a person who speaks without saying.


    There is no need for Zhang Xiu to cheat him.


    In particular, after Sima Yi''s obedience to Zhang Xiu, she has come into contact with more and more of Zhang Xiu''s subordinates. Sima Yi knew that most of the counselors under Zhang Xiu''s command were discovered by Zhang Xiu.


    Although many people are young, they are very capable.


    It can be seen that Zhang Xiu''s vision.


    Under such circumstances, Sima Yi believed Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Sima Yi said: "if it is as the LORD said, I agree to leave Xu you. It''s wonderful to have Xu you back under Yuan Shao''s command. He can restrain Yuan Shao. "


    "That''s exactly what it is," Zhang said


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter with the secret road of the north gate?"


    Sima Yi said: "report back to my Lord, General Huang arranged for the soldiers to dig the tunnel. It is estimated that in a short time, our people will enter the other end of the secret road and appear in the publicity mansion. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "next, to break huaixian County, it depends on the plan of the secret road here. In the vicinity of the exit of the secret Road, we should send more sentries to clear the possible Eyeliner so as to facilitate the transportation of the excavated soil.


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi nodded.


    After reporting, he stopped staying and left.


    ¡­¡­


    Inside the city, the prefect''s residence.


    In the secret road of Zhangyang mansion, a group of soldiers arrived quickly.


    The name of the leader was Gao Jian.


    This man belongs to the flying bear army and is a marquis in the army. At Huang Zhong''s command, he took 100 soldiers into the secret road and stationed along the way.


    Now Gao Jian is surrounded by 30 soldiers, all of them strong and strong.


    Gao Jian stood in the secret road and pulled the rope in the secret road.


    With the pull of the rope, the bell rings at the entrance of the secret road. The secret Road exit is a study in the backyard of the prefect''s residence. In the library, there are always attendants, listening to the secret road at any time.


    As soon as the bell rings, the servant flies away and comes to Zhang Chong and reports the situation to him. Zhang Chong was happy in his heart and thought that it would be better if Zhang Xiu''s army entered.


    He quickly came to the study and opened the door of the secret passage. Seeing Gao Jian in the secret Road, Zhang chonglian said: "the villain Zhang Chong is the housekeeper of the prefect''s house. I don''t know that the general is leading his troops into the army, but the army is here? "


    Gao Jian said, "the army didn''t come!"


    "Ah


    Zhang Chong was a little surprised, and his face was even more disappointed. After thinking about it, he asked, "I don''t know when General Zhang will send troops in?"


    "Unknown!"


    Gao Jian had been given orders for a long time. He replied, "the time for general Zhang to enter the city is not yet decided."


    Zhang Chong said, "how can I report to the governor?"


    Gao Jian snorted and said impatiently, "report as you should. All right, stop talking nonsense. From now on, I''ll be here, waiting for the army to arrive. You are responsible for all the meals I eat here


    "Yes


    Zhang Chong replied, "now, I will report to the prefect."


    "Go


    Gao Jian waved his hand.


    After Zhang Chong went out of the room, he went back to his room and wrote a letter to be sent out. Then he went back to Zhang Yang''s room and reported the secret road.


    When Zhang Yang heard the news, he was happy but sad.


    He is clearly true to Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu is not willing to enter the city.


    What are you dawdling about?


    Zhang Yangsi came and went, but he couldn''t figure out the reason. Especially other heart, even want to go out of the city, ask Zhang Xiu is what reason, but in the end, or restrain the mind.


    He can''t get out of town.


    If he happens to come out of the city and meet Zhang Yan to find someone, which leads to the exposure of the secret Road, all his previous achievements will be wasted. Zhang Yang has the idea of waiting, so he can only arrange Zhang Chong to watch closely, waiting for the news of Zhang Xiu entering the city.

 Chapter 412

    In fact, Yuan''s soldiers were ambushed at every intersection. Zhang arranged the ambush here, with a total of 6000 people.


    An ambush of 6000 troops is already a very strong force.


    Because it''s in the city after all.


    Even if there are more soldiers, they can''t do it. They can only stand on the street winding.


    The 6000 troops arranged by Zhang jaw are ambushed in every important road, which is enough to guard. Therefore, Zhang jaw is not worried. When Zhang Chong''s message was sent out, as soon as it reached the contact point, the general in charge saw the message and arranged for another person. Pegasus sent the message to the east gate and handed it to Zhang Ya.


    When Zhang jaw saw the news on the letter, he sighed in his heart and told Tian Feng.


    Tian Feng is extremely afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    If you don''t have a hand with Zhang Xiu, Tian Feng is just a pure fear, but he doesn''t really have much fear of Zhang Xiu. But now Tian Feng and Zhang Xiu hand in hand, see the means of Zhang Xiu, Tian Feng not only fear in the heart, the bottom of the heart more a trace of unknown fear.


    It''s because Zhang Xiu''s move is totally out of the ordinary sense.


    Such a person is hard to calculate.


    Let''s talk about Xu you. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu should kill Yan Liang first and then Xu you. But in the end, Zhang Xiu released Xu you, only Yan Liang and Xu you, Zhang Xiu made so many moths.


    Zhang Xiu''s ability to do things is too strong.


    Tian Feng is helpless.


    Tian Feng pondering after his heart, he said, "we have Zhang Chong as an eyeliner. Once Zhang embroidery''s army enters Tai Chai Fu, we can get news immediately."


    "Just now, near the exit of the secret road outside the north gate, there was a message that Zhang Xiu had cleaned up the ambush around him, and the sentry couldn''t get close to him."


    "Zhang Xiu is very cautious in thinking about things."


    "He expelled all the Sentinels at the exit of the secret passage and mastered the inside of the secret passage. It was clear that he wanted to control the inside and outside. Only in this way can we enter without being aware of it. "


    Tian Feng zhengse way: "to my expectation, Zhang Xiu is very likely to suddenly enter the prefecture, set off a war."


    "What the military adviser said is very true," he said


    Two people didn''t think too much, still in the city upstairs inspection city defense.


    A day is fleeting.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    "Boom!"


    The drum is rumbling, but outside the east gate, suddenly there is a drum fight.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is mighty, and she runs to the east gate.


    In front of the army, Zhang Xiu rode her horse.


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face, with a faint smile, said in a loud voice: "where is Zhang Xi?"


    "Ben will be here," Zhang said


    Zhang Xiu said: "in front of the general''s army, you will be defeated if you garrison huaixian. You are now capitulating in Kaicheng. You will be granted high office and high salary. What you have under Yuan Shao''s command will guarantee you a lot. What you don''t have under Yuan Shao''s command will be given to you. "


    "Dream!"


    Zhang Yan refused without hesitation.


    Under Yuan Shao''s command, Zhang Yan was also highly valued and was a general under Yuan Shao''s command.


    He can''t betray Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed: "it''s a pity that you have to follow Yuan Shao. In my opinion, Yuan Shao is just trying to be strong now. He can''t be strong for a long time. "


    Zhang chin disdained to say: "Zhang Xiu, you are just a few counties, trying to comment on the Lord, that is self humiliation. In front of the Lord, you are too far away


    After a pause, Zhang jaw said: "you want to attack the city, even though the attack is, less nonsense."


    Zhang Xiu said no more and ordered to attack the city.


    Under the command, siege vehicles and archers kept coming forward. Under the pressure of the siege vehicles and archers, another thousand soldiers came forward to attack at the gate of the city.


    This kind of attack is not to go all out, but to attract attention.


    Open jaw to see in the eyes, keep relaxed.


    However, Zhang Xia thought that Zhang Xiu might have done it on purpose, feigned to attract his attention, and then sent a large army to attack the city from the secret road.


    Zhang Yan looked at Tian Feng and solemnly said, "military division, commanding soldiers, pay close attention to the situation in the north city. Zhang Xiu feints to attract our attention and is likely to enter the city. "


    Tian Feng said, "I understand!"


    When Wen Chou stood on the tower, he was depressed and full of resentment. Seeing Zhang Xiu''s attack on the city, he thought that Zhang Xiu''s army might enter the city from the prefecture.


    So Wen Chou took the initiative and said, "Zhang jaw, I''ll go outside the prefecture. As soon as there is an army, I will stop it immediately. "


    "No problem!" he said


    Wen Chou left soon with his own soldiers.


    Zhang Jia is still on the upper floor of the town. He commands the soldiers to defend, but the siege is extremely boring. One day later, Zhang Xiu consumes a lot of stones and countless bows and arrows. In fact, there are not many soldiers sent to attack the city, and there are not many casualties.


    This day, Zhang jaw has been waiting for the news of the prefect''s house.


    But never.This made Zhang jaw feel helpless.


    He couldn''t understand the truth of Zhang Xiu.


    In the evening, Zhang Xiu has withdrawn from the army and will not attack any more.


    Wen Chou came back from the prefect''s house, his face was full of anger, and said: "Zhang Yan, Zhang Xiu has controlled the secret way, but he hasn''t come in yet. He never takes action. We are too passive. In my opinion, let''s go out of the city and attack Zhang Xiu. "


    "No!"


    Zhang didn''t even think about it and refused.


    Wen Chou said, "why not?"


    Tian Feng took the words and said: "first, there are Zhang Xiu''s people at the exit and entrance of the secret road. As soon as you appear, you will be discovered immediately. It is impossible to have a surprising effect. "


    "Second, even if you kill all the people stationed in the secret Road, how many troops do you have? Send all our troops up? Our troops are less than those of Zhang Xiu. "


    "When the two armies are at war, we are at a disadvantage."


    Tian Feng zhengse way: "to defeat Zhang Xiu, we must ambush Zhang Xiu, in order to win more with less."


    Wen Chou clenched his fist and said, "this is not good, that is not good. It''s boring for you to fight in town. The army under the Lord''s command has never been so subdued. I will report to you what you have done and what you are afraid of fighting. "


    Tian Feng snorted: "whatever you want!"


    Zhang said: "general Wen, when I command the army, I am worthy of my heart and my Lord. If you want to blame me, I can''t help it. It''s up to you. "


    "It''s already night. General Wen should have a rest early."


    Zhang Yan''s big sleeve flicked and made the gesture of seeing off the guests. Anyway, it has offended the literary ugliness, and Zhang Yan doesn''t care so much.


    Wen Chou snorted and turned to leave.


    That night, Zhang jaw didn''t find anything. He even made plans to let the soldiers outside the prefect''s house guard all night, but he didn''t wait for Zhang Xiu''s army to enter the city through the secret road.


    Time goes by day like this.


    In the twinkling of an eye, four days have passed.


    For four days, Zhang Xiu feinted all the time and never really attacked.


    In four days, Zhang Xiu did not enter the city by secret Road, but always held both ends of the secret road. Zhang Xiu''s patience makes Zhang jaw doubt. He can''t guess when Zhang Xiu will enter the city. He even thinks that Zhang Xiu may enter the city at any time.


    Zhang Jia said several times that Zhang Xiu was an old fox in front of Tian Feng. Because although Zhang Xiu is young, her means are really sophisticated.


    On this day, at noon.


    Zhang Xiu''s military camp is a big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu withdrew his troops at noon and returned to the barracks to have a rest.


    Just after lunch, when Zhang Xiuzheng was about to have a rest, Sima Yi rushed into the camp with a happy smile on her face and said: "Lord, it''s done, it''s done!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "what has become?"


    Sima Yi said: "in four days, our soldiers have been digging all night, and a six Zhang long tunnel has been excavated. This tunnel is under the city wall. Now, if the wooden piles are used to prop up, as long as the wooden piles are destroyed, a section of the wall of the north gate will collapse. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed a happy look.


    It''s done!


    After waiting for four days, it finally became.

 Chapter 413

    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    A soldier enters Zhang Xiu''s barracks and salutes, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Zhang xiudao: "inform Gan Ning to come and see you."


    "Here it is


    After a while, Gan Ning entered quickly and asked, "what''s your order, Lord?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the secret road outside the north gate has been excavated successfully. You immediately send the tiger soldiers to leave the rear camp and go around the north gate. When our east gate rings, you will act. The north gate collapses. You enter from the north gate. This general will also attack the east gate, and the two sides will attack each other in a concerted effort to defeat Zhang Yan. "


    "I''ll do it


    Gan Ning answers with a fist.


    Sima Yi said: "Lord, once general Gan breaks the city, I don''t suggest that general Gan rush to the East Gate immediately."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Sima Yi replied, "if Zhang wants to use the secret Road, there will be ambush on the official road near the prefect''s residence. After entering the city, general Gan can go to the prefect''s residence first to solve the ambush around him. "


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while, then ordered: "Gan Ning, after entering the north city. The army is divided in two. First, send some soldiers to attack the area near the prefect''s residence and defeat the ambush of Yuan Jun. "


    "Second, go to Zhangyan''s barracks in the city and completely destroy Zhangyan''s rear area."


    "Don''t worry about the Dongmen war."


    Zhang Xiu adjusted Sima Yi''s suggestion. Under the current situation, she not only attacked Zhang''s army in the city, but also solved Zhang''s rear area.


    "I''ll do it


    Gan Ning nodded and answered.


    Gan Ning leaves in a hurry. Sima Yi is convinced of Zhang Xiu''s adjustment and says: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "go down and have a rest. Next, it''s a decisive battle. We''ve spent so many days with Zhang Yan. It''s time for a decisive battle. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded and withdrew from the camp.


    Zhang Xiu also closed her eyes and took time to rest.


    Two quarters of an hour is fleeting.


    When Zhang Xiu wakes up, she immediately mobilizes her army, including the flying bear army, the Langya camp, and all the regular soldiers.


    It can be said that the army is pulling out of the camp to fight.


    In addition, Yiying''s equipment, such as siege vehicle, ladder, crash and so on, also appeared.


    This is the final siege.


    Zhang Xiu has mobilized all the troops to do her best.


    It was not long before the army reached the east gate.


    The army arrayed, Zhang Xiu no redundant words, directly issued the siege order. In this siege, we first used siege vehicles and bows and arrows to suppress the forces at the head of the city. Ten thousand regular troops went into the battlefield and launched a fierce attack.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums were ringing and the sound was rumbling.


    The drums that ring from heaven and earth reverberate inside and outside the city. Even in the north of the city, you can hear the war drums.


    This time, the siege was very different.


    Zhang jaw, on the upper floor of the city, obviously felt the different power of attacking the city. He quickly mobilized the army to defend. Wave after wave of archers came forward and quickly dropped their bows, intending to suppress the attack of siege.


    While Zhang Xia was commanding the soldiers to guard, he looked at Tian Feng on the upper floor of the city and said, "commander, Zhang Xiu suddenly began to attack. Such an offensive is quite different. It is very likely that Zhang Xiu''s army will enter the city by secret route. Send an order to Wen Chou to be on guard outside the prefect''s residence. "


    Tian Feng said: "don''t worry, general. After Zhang Xiu launched the offensive, I have already ordered."


    "That''s good!"


    He nodded.


    At this moment, the expression on Zhang''s face was also very serious, saying: "the next battle is very important. This battle is also the key to success. "


    Tian Feng said, "it''s up to you to win or lose."


    The expression on both faces was solemn.


    With the war, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, some soldiers began to climb the tower, began to fight with the garrison upstairs.


    The two armies fought each other in a white-edged battle.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu went up to the city building and were soon beaten down. Immediately after that, another soldier was killed and then suppressed. In such a cycle, the war is a temporary drag.


    In the distance, Zhang Xiu sees the fighting on the head of the city and looks calm. She doesn''t feel shocked by the siege saw, because Zhang Yan is not an ordinary general and it''s not easy to defeat him.


    Zhang is especially good at defense.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind, but fly to the North City, looking forward to Ganning win.


    It''s in the north city.


    When Zhang Xiu attacked the city, the fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning had already appeared outside the north city. The army was hiding in the forest a hundred feet away, and did not rush out for the time being.


    The drums came. At the exit of the secret Road, the soldiers had moved.


    This time, the wooden piles supporting the ground were destroyed. They were three wooden piles tied with hemp ropes at the dense crossing.


    These hemp ropes are arm thick.In order to prevent the hemp rope from being pulled off, the hemp rope is very thick. Once the three most central wooden piles are pulled down, the city wall will collapse. Under the impact of the collapse, the other wooden piles within six feet will also collapse.


    In this way, the whole wall will collapse.


    "Hey


    At the exit of the secret Road, dozens of soldiers pulled the hemp rope with thick arms and pulled it out.


    As the soldiers started to work, soon after the hemp rope was loosened, the soldiers were caught off guard and all fell back to the ground. The soldiers all know that the stake supporting the ground has fallen down. Next, we will see the reaction of the city wall.


    One by one, looking at the direction of the tower, waiting for the results.


    So is Ganning.


    He was also outside the north gate, waiting for the results.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, the left section of the North Gate Tower suddenly vibrated. The wall, which was originally rammed with soil, suddenly cracked, the soil broke and collapsed, and continued to sink.


    "It''s done!"


    Seeing this scene, Gan Ning''s face is full of smiles.


    "Boys, kill me!"


    Gan Ning roared and rushed out with the long knife in his hand.


    More than 20000 fierce tiger troops, kill quickly.


    The mighty soldiers charged, and in the blink of an eye, they came to the collapse. The city wall of huaixian county is more than three feet high, because it is compacted with soil, but after the collapse and fracture of the city wall, the shortest place is less than one foot.


    Ganning got to this place, quickly climbed up, and took the soldiers into the city.


    The fierce tiger army continued to enter the city, and there were not many troops on the upper floor of the north city. Now the city building collapsed, which could not resist the attack of the fierce tiger army. In a short time, the fierce tiger army defeated the garrison in the North City and took control of the North Gate Tower.


    "Kill, follow me into the city!"


    Ganning gave a loud order.


    On the way to the city, the royal guards came to cooperate.


    The royal guards in the city don''t have much fighting power, but they are better than being familiar with the situation in the city. They even know where the soldiers under Wen Chou are hiding and where the ambush outside the prefect''s residence is.


    So after meeting with the royal guards, Gan Ning quickly divided his troops and arranged for 8000 soldiers to go to Zhang Ya''s barracks, while he personally led 12000 people to kill in the direction of the prefect''s residence.


    The reason for this is that Gan Ning concluded that there were not many people in the barracks. After all, most of Zhang Ya''s troops were on the East Gate Tower, ready to resist the attack.


    The other part is outside the prefecture.


    On the contrary, outside the barracks, the troops are the least.


    It''s not far from the north gate to the prefect''s residence. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the army led by Ganning arrived. Led by the royal guards, Gan Ning''s army easily found the ambush and quickly launched the attack.


    This situation made yuan Jun soldiers in ambush confused.


    What''s going on?


    Isn''t it true that Zhang Xiu''s army will come out of the prefecture?


    Why, from other places.


    Even the literati who are here are caught off guard. Wenchou quickly mobilized the army, and mobilized all the ambushes on the surrounding streets to meet the enemy.


    Shouting and killing all around, both sides killed quickly.

 Chapter 414

    The sound of killing resounded from inside and outside the prefect''s house and spread to the prefect''s house. When Zhang Chong found out the situation, he was stunned.


    What''s going on?


    Isn''t it from the secret way?


    Isn''t it a combination of internal and external?


    Zhang Xiu''s plan, how suddenly changed. But Zhang Chong doesn''t understand all this. He can only report to Zhang Yang quickly.


    It was also an accident that Zhang Yang got the news.


    The secret road didn''t work. Instead, Zhang Xiu''s army appeared in the city. Zhang Yang has no power in his family, so he dare not go out. Zhang Yang worried that the army would enter the house, so he immediately ordered the door to be locked and not allowed to go out.


    Publicity is closed, and so are the people in the streets around it.


    Along the street, the gate is closed.


    Fighting continues.


    Gan Ning led the soldiers to besiege. He had a large number of troops, and the soldiers were all elite. After fighting for a period of time, he suppressed the Wenchou''s army and began to cover up the Wenchou''s soldiers.


    Wenchou was full of intention to kill Zhang Xiu, and he wanted to kill Zhang Xiu''s army quickly.


    Now, it''s really invincible.


    Around him, there are only 6000 elite soldiers. It would be nice if such a number of soldiers were ambushed unexpectedly, but now they are found out. The two armies are fighting each other, and his soldiers are totally defeated.


    More and more people are killed and injured.


    Seeing this, Wen Chou was no longer in love with war. He ordered: "retreat, retreat to the east gate!"


    He led the way to the east gate.


    Seeing this, the soldiers under his command no longer love to fight and retreat quickly with Wen Chou. But this retreat, fell behind the soldiers, all became the target of being killed.


    For a time, there were countless casualties.


    When Wenchou retreated to the east gate, another tiger army had already killed at the gate of the camp.


    There are not many soldiers in Zhang''s camp.


    The defensive equipment was moved to the East Gate Tower, so that as soon as the liehu army entered, it was defeated immediately and could not resist the attack of the liehu army.


    Two strongholds in zhangya city were pulled out one after another.


    On the east gate, fighting is in full swing.


    Zhang Xiu''s offensive is like a tide. Under the powerful and ferocious offensive, even if she opens her jaw, she also feels heavy pressure. As time goes by, on the one hand, Zhang Yan resists Zhang Xiu''s attack, on the other hand, he is waiting for the news of Wen Chou. He expects Wen Chou to win.


    Only in this way can the game be broken.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, there was a cry.


    One of the soldiers came running fast with a quick look. This soldier came all the way from the North Gate Tower. He came to Zhang''s side and reported: "general, it''s not good. The north gate fell and Zhang Xiu''s army entered the city. "


    The face color of Zhang''s jaw changed greatly.


    Why?


    He couldn''t imagine that the north gate was so good that it would sink directly.


    Zhang jaw pressure heart impetuous mood, even busy way: "what''s the matter, why the north gate will fall?"


    The soldier said: "the wall of the north gate suddenly subsided, the wall collapsed, and there was a big army attacking outside the city. Our city defense completely lost its defensive power. Therefore, the north gate fell


    Hiss!


    Zhang jaw cold can''t help but take a cold breath.


    The north gate wall collapsed.


    Zhang Ya also knows the art of war. As soon as he heard the news of the collapse of the north gate wall, he immediately understood the reason.


    It must be digging tunnels.


    Only in this way can the city wall collapse.


    Zhang Jia''s heart, immediately flustered up, he looked at Tian Feng, nervous way: "military adviser, Zhang Xiu these days, are so cloth doubt.". He deliberately made us think that he would enter the city by secret route. "


    "In fact, from beginning to end, Zhang Xiu was not willing to enter the city by secret road. Instead, she wanted to use secret road as a cover, and at the same time, she used the secret road of reason to dig tunnels to collapse the city wall."


    "It''s a trick!"


    "We''re all in the game."


    Zhang''s fists beat the tower hard and said: "we know the secret way. We should plan Zhang Xiu. But in the end, it''s Zhang Xiu who calculated for us. "


    Tian Feng''s cheek twitched slightly and sighed.


    He has always been known for his resourcefulness, but this time in the battle of Huai County, he fell into Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    A few days ago, Zhang Xiu killed Yan Liang and released Xu you, which made Tian Feng dumb.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is scheming again.


    Fall into Zhang Xiu''s calculation again.


    Tian Feng turned his eyes and said quickly: "General Zhang, there is a big army in the north city. And Zhang Xiu''s army is so large that we can''t keep it. Now go to the north gate immediately, and go through the north gate. "


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "north gate is captured, go north gate appropriate?"


    Tian Feng replied, "it was because the north gate fell that I went to the north gate. The army of Zhang Xiu, who entered the city from the north gate, has entered the city. It is impossible to defend the north gate even if there are many troops. With our strength, we can destroy the garrison at the north gate and kill them. If you go through the rest of the city gates, you will probably be ambushed. ""Good!"


    He nodded in agreement.


    Immediately, Zhang jaw gave the order to retreat.


    The party followed the tower and went straight to the north gate. After Zhang Xi''s army retreated, Zhang Xiu''s army quickly established itself in the east gate, and then quickly killed the fleeing yuan soldiers along the city floor.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    The casualties of Yuan''s soldiers were increasing, but Zhang Ya, Tian Feng and others withdrew first.


    Zhang Xiu''s army conquered the east gate.


    As the army occupied the east gate, the gate opened and Zhang Xiu led the army into it.


    Knowing the direction of Zhang Ya''s retreat, Zhang Xiu looks at Chen Dao beside him and orders: "Chen Dao, mobilize the cavalry of Langya camp to pursue Zhang Ya, and be sure to take Zhang Ya."


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao immediately responded.


    In this battle, Chen Dao''s cavalry of Langya camp did not fight from beginning to end.


    It''s not that we don''t fight, it''s that we don''t have a chance.


    Only when the cavalry of Langya camp is used to cover up the enemy and chase the fleeing yuan Jun, can they play the greatest role. Especially after Zhang Ya and others withdrew from Huai County, without the barrier of Huai County, they would become the targets of Langya camp''s slaughter in the vast official road.


    Shortly after Zhang Xiu entered the city, a soldier came quickly and reported: "general, on the official road ahead, I found that Yuan Jun was coming to the East Gate quickly. The leader of the troops was general Wen Chou of Yuan''s army. "


    "Ha, Wen Chou, as an abandoned son, has fallen into the trap."


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    Zhang Ya and Tian Feng did not inform Wen Chou when they retreated. As a result, Wenchou came to the east gate, but he was caught by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu, armed with a overlord gun, quickly leads the army out.


    Thousands of flying bear troops are coming out.


    "Da! "Da!"


    The sound of the horse''s hooves sounded, and the wind in Zhang Xiu''s crotch shook off her four hooves, as fast as lightning, and ran all the way. After running for a while, I was surprised to see that an army was coming on the official road a hundred paces away.


    This army is yuan Jun.


    The leader is the literary clown.


    Although the surrounding terrain is wide, the literati and the Chou look around. Even if they break through the encirclement on both sides, they can''t escape.


    The scope of breakthrough is not enough!


    Wenchou also saw Zhang Xiu. He was very jealous when he met her. Especially in the past few days, he recovered. When he saw Zhang Xiu, his face was full of anger and roared: "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    All reason is gone.


    Only the idea of killing Zhang Xiu remains.


    His horse galloped under his crotch. In a flash, he met Zhang Xiu. The long knife in the hand of Wen Chou revolves in the air, with an arc passing through, and the blade cuts horizontally in the air.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord spear comes out with a sharp stab.


    "Ding! Ding


    The tip of the overlord gun kept hitting the blade, so that the blade from the transverse cutting was deflected.


    Zhang Xiu blocked the attack of Wen Chou with one shot, and the overlord''s gun swept away like the wind sweeping the fallen leaves. His moves are open and close. His moves point to the key point, either stab, or smash, or sweep. The attack is unparalleled.


    Wenchou can attack and defend at the beginning, but gradually, he is suppressed by Zhang Xiu and can only defend. He doesn''t even have the strength to fight back, so he is in a precarious situation.

 Chapter 415

    When Zhang Xiu suppressed Wen Chou, his soldiers also suppressed yuan Jun''s soldiers and slaughtered them quickly. Under the crushing force of the powerful, the soldiers led by Wen Chou either fled or surrendered, and the whole line collapsed.


    Zhang xiuzhan is a man of letters and ugliness, surrounded by a circle of soldiers.


    Wen Chou wants to escape, but he can''t kill him.


    While fighting with Wenchou, Zhang Xiu said: "Wenchou, you are not our opponent. If you surrender, Ben will still be willing to use you as general. It''s a pity that you died in battle with all your martial arts. "


    Zhang Xiu appreciates such a man as Wen Chou.


    Every dog slaughters!


    It is such a warrior that he is most loyal. Once Wu Fu decides something, he will not repent.


    When Wen Chou heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he opened his eyes and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, I want to eat your meat and drink your blood. If you want to surrender me, it''s impossible. I''m a literary clown, and I''ll die! "


    "Kill


    Wenchou''s sword, again split.


    Today''s literary ugliness, tiger mouth tear again, the red blood, has soaked the palm. Even on the handle of the knife, there is blood.


    But literary ugliness is still not falling!


    He would rather die than surrender.


    It''s a big deal to be killed!


    Zhang Xiu overlord gun attack, a gun hit on the blade, under the impact of fierce force, Wenchou''s sword can''t hold. With a bang, the sword flew out and fell to the ground.


    The overlord continued to fall.


    "Bang!"


    The remaining strength of the overlord gun fell on the shoulder of Wen Chou, making a dull sound.


    The power of this blow has been weakened a lot.


    Rao is so, Wen Chou is also a stuffy hum, the shoulder bones are as if to break like. Wen Chou didn''t admit defeat. At the moment when he was hit by the sword, his hand fell on his sword like lightning.


    "Sonorous!"


    When a long sword comes out of its sheath, Wenchou stabs it out.


    The sharp point of the sword is the heart of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, no panic, immediately withdraw the gun. The overlord gun swung out and hit the blade. With the sound of Dang, it knocked the blade open.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu drinks low, the long gun stabs again.


    The point of the spear was at the heart of Wen Chou, but Wen Chou didn''t avoid it. He swung his sword and cut it off again.


    This is life for injury!


    The literary ugliness is totally irresistible.


    He wants to exchange his life for Zhang Xiu''s injury. Wenchou knew that he could not escape, and he knew that his martial arts were not as good as Zhang Xiu.


    In the end, he must be defeated.


    But even if it is defeated, even if it is killed, literary ugliness can not make Zhang Xiu better, at least hurt her.


    This is the idea of Wenchou.


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face is still cold and quiet. She is not nervous because of the literary clown''s sword stabbing. Stabbed out of the overlord gun, a meal in the air, is suddenly up.


    "Bang!"


    Violent impact, immediately sounded.


    Wenchou''s sword was hit. Under the impact of power, the sword was knocked away. And Zhang Xiu''s long gun retreated a little, and then stabbed out as fast as lightning.


    "Whew!"


    A long gun is as fast as lightning, a shot is as fast as a poisonous snake.


    "Puchi!"


    The tip of the gun penetrates into the heart of the literary clown. Once stirred, it breaks the heart of the literary clown. When the overlord''s gun was drawn out, the red blood splashed out from the heart of Wenchou.


    Wen Chou didn''t even make a sound. He looked up and fell down.


    His eyes faded.


    Just the corner of his mouth, but suddenly a smile. He saw Yan Liang, and saw Yan Liang waving to him in the air.


    It seems to be greeting him.


    "Here I am, brother."


    Wenchou''s heart, raised the idea. Just words did not speak out, Wenchou burly body, bang fell to the ground, people suddenly no breath.


    When Zhang Wenchou sighs, he is killed.


    He didn''t want to kill Wenchou.


    However, the ugliness does not come down, especially the relationship of Yan Liang. It is even more difficult for Zhang Xiu to admit the ugliness. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu can only kill Wen Chou.


    "Come on, be careful with the ugly corpse. It''s a heavy burial!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    The soldier got Zhang Xiu''s order, quickly came forward, carefully restrained the body of Wen Chou.


    Zhang Xiu looked at some yuan soldiers who were still resisting around her and said in a high voice: "the clown is dead. Those who fall will not be killed!"


    "Wenchou is dead, those who come down will not be killed!"


    "Wenchou is dead, those who come down will not be killed!"


    The soldiers in the army, shouting after them.


    One after another, many yuan soldiers who were still resisting gave up their resistance, threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender. Only yuan''s soldiers who resisted were quickly slaughtered.At the end of the war, Gan Ning came with his soldiers and joined Zhang Xiu.


    Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu''s body and reported: "Lord, the mansion of publicity has been surrounded by humble positions. Zhang Ya''s camp has been taken. Now huaixian is under our control! "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "clean up the battlefield and count the losses."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to Zhang Ya''s camp.


    Entering the barracks, the fierce tiger army began to recuperate.


    Zhang Xiu is to the Chinese Army account, check some Zhang jaw did not have time to take away the letter. However, most of the letters placed on the desk reported to Yuan Shao about the situation of the battlefield. They did not involve yuan shaolai''s arrangement and were of little value.


    Zhang Xiu is quietly waiting for the news.


    An hour later, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning came at the same time.


    The two have finished reorganizing the army and counting the losses.


    With a smile on his face, Huang Zhong replied, "Lord, we captured 8000 yuan troops and killed more than 4300 people. The rest of the yuan troops either fled, or fled with Tian Feng and Zhang Yan. Two thousand soldiers in our army died in the war, mainly due to the loss of the conventional army. The loss of the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army does not exceed 300. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "immediately reorganize the prisoners, and then issue a notice to appease the people."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The rapid footsteps came from outside the camp again.


    But Chen Dao strides in.


    Chen Zhi saluted and said, "Lord, I led the cavalry of Langya camp to cover up the fleeing reinforcements, beheaded more than 2000 people and captured nearly 4000 people. In addition, Zhang was captured alive, but no trace of Tian Feng was found


    Zhang Xiu had a surprised look on her face and said, "did you capture Zhang jaw alive?"


    "Yes


    Chen Dao nodded.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed a look of approval.


    Zhang Jia is a wise general. If she can recruit Zhang Jia, it will be very beneficial for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu thought a turn, immediately ordered: "come, please Wang Yue."


    The soldier went to inform him. After a while, Wang Yue hurried in, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "my Lord, I don''t know what I''m going to tell you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "can there be spies from the royal guards in Yecheng, Jizhou?"


    "Yes!"


    Wang Yue nodded and said, "there are many royal guards in Yecheng, but most of them are Rangers. They are all martial arts men."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately order the royal guards of Yecheng to take Zhang''s family back to Hanoi county. It has to be done quickly. It has to be done before Yuan Shao gets the war report of Huai county. "


    Wang Yue said: "please don''t worry, my Lord. I will send the news to the royal guards with the fastest speed."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and Wang Yue stepped down.


    As soon as Chen Dao heard Zhang Xiu''s command, he knew that Zhang Xiu was sure to surrender Zhang jaw. He said, "about Zhang jaw, after taking him down, he asked. But he refused to surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "bring people in. We will deal with it in the future."


    "Here it is


    Chen Dao immediately gave orders to go down.


    After a while, he looked embarrassed, his clothes were not neat, and his mouth was covered with blood. He was escorted into the Chinese army tent by the soldiers.

 Chapter 416

    Zhang Ya and Tian Feng broke through from the north gate before. After arriving at the north gate, as Tian Feng said, they broke through smoothly. But not long after leaving the city, Chen arrived with the cavalry of Langya camp.


    The soldiers under Zhang Ya''s command, though cavalry, were mostly infantry.


    Hasty retreat, not many cavalry.


    At the beginning, Zhang was able to retreat quickly and get rid of the pursuit of the cavalry of Langya camp. But in the back, the cavalry of Langya camp chase more and more tightly. Seeing that they are about to be caught up, Zhang jaw takes the initiative to cover Tian Feng''s evacuation and takes the soldiers to stop Chen Dao.


    Finally, Zhang was captured alive by Chen Dao.


    Zhang Jia and Chen Dao were injured in the fight, and their internal organs were damaged, so that the corners of their mouths were still covered with blood.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Zhang jaw looks complicated.


    When he got Yuan Shao''s order to come to huaixian, Zhang jaw was full of fighting spirit and didn''t feel any difficulty. At that time, Zhang Xi just felt that Zhang Xiu was not simple and should be careful.


    After the real confrontation with Zhang Xiu, we found that the situation was not simple.


    Zhang Xiu''s means can not be prevented.


    Zhang jaw was defeated, and he was convinced.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the bound Zhang jaw, stood up, went to Zhang jaw, personally untied Zhang jaw, and said with a smile: "the people below are not sensible, they are so contemptuous. I''m really sorry."


    After untiing the rope on Zhang''s body, Zhang Xiu continued: "I know the talent of Yi Yi. Before that, you and I had different positions and were enemies to each other. Please forgive me for the improper words. "


    "Although Yuan Shao''s strength is strong, he doesn''t need to be able to use his talents."


    "His occupation of Hebei is temporary."


    "I''m under Yuan Shao''s command. That''s a bright pearl."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the bush. She said to the mountain, "You Yi, are you willing to submit to the general?"


    Zhang Yan said, "I''d like to submit to General Zhang."


    Today''s Zhang jaw, has been defeated, there is no hesitation.


    Most of all, it doesn''t make sense for him to insist. What''s more, Zhang Xiu occupies Nanyang County, Jingzhao, youfufeng, Hanoi, Hongnong and other places, and is more powerful.


    It''s not bad to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was delighted and praised again and again. Finally, she said, "You Yi didn''t belong to the general before, but you should know the military structure of the general?"


    Zhang chin nodded and replied, "I know a little bit. The general''s army has three major armies. The flying bear army and the fierce tiger army are infantry, and the Langya battalion is cavalry."


    "That''s true, but I still have tens of thousands of regular troops under my command. The so-called conventional army is the ordinary soldiers in the army. These people have always been in charge of and trained by the general himself. Today, I worship him as a guerrilla general, commanding the conventional soldiers. "


    "Ah


    Zhang jaw heard, surprised voice.


    He didn''t respond immediately, but was shocked by Zhang Xiu''s decisiveness, and even more shocked by Zhang Xiu''s respect for him. Today, he and Zhang Xiu are still the enemies of the two armies.


    But now, Zhang Xiu worships him as a guerrilla general, makes him in charge of tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and entrusts him with heavy responsibilities.


    Is Zhang Xiu stupid?


    Is Zhang Xiu short of mind?


    Open jaw heart, a time thoughts fly. A moment later, Zhang Yan''s mind returned. He didn''t answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "I have a question. Please explain it."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhang chin straightened his face and said, "when I first became obedient, my lord entrusted me with an important task. Isn''t my lord worried that when I took charge of the tens of thousands of regular troops, I would leave huaixian and betray him? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "can you


    Zhang said: "I work for my Lord, and I will not betray him. But isn''t the Lord worried? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "there are two reasons why I am bold in delegating power."


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "wish to hear its detailed!"


    "First, I can see people," Zhang Xiu said


    "Although you''ve just come back, you''re loyal and courageous, and you can judge the situation. You are not stupid and loyal. You know that good birds choose trees to live in. When you are under Yuan Shao''s command, you should be loyal to Yuan Shao. "


    "Defeated and captured, no wonder you."


    "That''s what the battlefield is like."


    "As a matter of fact, Xu you had hoped to submit to me, but from the beginning to the end, I did not admit Xu you. Because Xu you is greedy and selfish. Such people are useless to me even if they are talented. "


    Zhang Xiu talked about the first reason.


    Zhang chin shook his head and said, "but such a reason is just the judgment of the princess. It''s too emotional, not rational, and not enough to make the Lord make a decision."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "indeed, so there is a second reason."


    "After learning that you have been captured, Wang Yue, the leader of the royal guards under his command, was ordered to inform the royal guards of Yecheng as soon as possible, so that the royal guards can bring your family members to Hanoi before the Huai County War report is sent back to Yecheng."


    "It''s Ben''s reason."


    "To put it another way, it''s also to solve your worries, so that your family won''t be coerced.""In other words, with family as a fetter, you can''t betray. As long as you are loyal to Ben Jiang, your family will not only be safe, but also enjoy prosperity. If you want to betray, your family will be slaughtered because of you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I believe you by my feeling. It''s my trust in you. It''s my way to bring your family. Do you understand now? "


    After hearing this, I was convinced.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu.


    Unexpectedly early, already arranged a person to go to Ye City.


    Zhang chin clasped his hands and solemnly said: "my Lord is very thoughtful and I admire him for his humble duty. My Lord, please rest assured that you should strengthen the training of the conventional army when you are humble. Even if you are a conventional army, you will not be a laggard soldier. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I believe you!"


    Now Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Gan Ning all know that Zhang Xiu has another general under her command.


    Before that, although there were many generals under Zhang Xiu''s command, they did not have the ability to take charge of their own affairs. They were only Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi and Gan Ning.


    Now, there''s more jaw opening.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "take a rest for a day. From tomorrow, we will send troops to sweep the counties of Hanoi."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong and others answered, and everyone responded.


    When several people were busy, the reorganization of the army began. With Zhang jazai, the reorganization of the prisoners became more rapid. After all the prisoners were re screened, they were reorganized again.


    Because Huai county was won and Hanoi was just around the corner, Zhang Xiu stopped detaining Sui Gu and asked Zhang Ya to take him in. He incorporated Sui Gu into the regular army and took charge of the commander.


    The strength of Zhang Xiu''s army was once again strengthened.


    A day is fleeting.


    It''s early in the morning.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led their respective troops to leave huaixian county. Huang Zhong left from the north gate of huaixian county and went north along the official road outside the gate to sweep the counties in the north of Hanoi county. Ganning left from the south gate and went east to sweep the counties to the east of Hanoi county.


    Zhang Xiu continued to be stationed in Huai county.


    It''s easy to attack cities and plunder land, but it''s hard to govern local areas. Because it''s not easy to select people to govern all over the country.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the big account of the Chinese army, soldiers reported it.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    After the soldiers entered, they reported: "general, the commander-in-chief of Hanoi, Zhang Yang, is outside the military camp. He wants to see you face to face."


    "Bring him in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to inform Zhang Yang, and soon Zhang Yang came to the camp. His feet are empty and his face is uneasy. I don''t know what Zhang Xiu will do with him.


    Zhang jaw into Huai County, imprisoned him.


    When Zhang Xiu defeated Zhang Ya, all the yuan soldiers outside the prefect''s mansion disappeared.


    At that time, Zhang Yang wanted to wait for Zhang Xiu''s summon, but after waiting all day, he didn''t see Zhang Xiu''s summon. Zhang Yang was flustered. He wanted to ask for Zhang Yang last night, but he was worried about disturbing Zhang Xiu''s rest and angering Zhang Xiu, so he waited for Zhang Xiu to come to see him this morning.


    He stayed up all night last night.


    It''s not that I don''t want to sleep, but that I can''t sleep.


    Zhang yangman''s mind is full of things about his position as governor of Hanoi, worried about losing his official position. Now see Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yang is more uneasy, bow hand salute way: "next officer Zhang Yang, see General Zhang."

 Chapter 417

    Zhang Xiu heard Zhang Yang''s words, but she sneered in her heart. As soon as Zhang Yang opened his mouth, he called himself a subordinate. This was a preconceived idea, and he decided that he was still the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture.


    As long as Zhang Xiu accepts it, Zhang Yang feels at ease and thinks that Zhang Xiu has no intention of moving him.


    It''s a publicity trick.


    Zhang Xiu directly pierced it and said, "Zhang Yang, you are no longer the prefect of Hanoi."


    "Ah


    Zhang Yang screamed, and his heart suddenly became flustered.


    But with his face, he tried to keep calm and said: "General Zhang, the post of Hanoi prefect is appointed by the emperor. Today, the emperor has never issued an imperial edict to remove me from office. In that case, why am I not the governor of Hanoi? "


    He''s just being careless.


    He intended to suppress Zhang Xiu with the help of the emperor.


    As long as Zhang Xiu has a little fear of the emperor, he is still the prefect of Hanoi.


    There was a trace of coldness in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and she said: "in front of Yuan Shao''s army, you want to be powerful and perfect, and let it be squeezed. In front of this general, I dare to shout one or two. Do you think Ben will be young and easy to bully? "


    "Of course not!"


    Zhang Yang, with a thick pouch under his eyes, explained: "General Zhang is a general appointed by the imperial court, and I am also a Hanoi prefect appointed by the imperial court. I''m still willing to serve for general Zhang as Hanoi''s prefect. "


    He only wanted to keep his position and power.


    He was used to the luxury of life, and he was used to the extravagance of life.


    If he loses his position as governor, he will lose everything.


    This is unbearable.


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "unfortunately, I don''t need your loyalty. You are always indifferent to everything for the sake of power. In particular, when the Huns came to Wenxian, you always ignored them and hoped that they would die in their hands. A man like you is not worthy to be the prefect of Hanoi or the official of the people. "


    After Zhang jaw surrendered, he said about Zhang Chong.


    Zhang Yang was very surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhang Chong, as Zhang Yang''s housekeeper, was beaten for Wenxian people. Just like this, Zhang Xiu doesn''t like Zhang Yang at all.


    Zhang Xiu despises a man who is willing to sacrifice the people and collude with the Huns for his power.


    There is indeed a contradiction between Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yang.


    But if, when Zhang Xiu attacked the Huns in Wenxian County, Zhang Yang sent troops to rescue the people in Wenxian County, no matter how incompetent Zhang Yang was, Zhang Xiu would treat Zhang Yang well, because Zhang Yang still had a bottom line.


    Publicity is worth treating.


    But Zhang Yang not only ignores the life and death of the common people, but even plays Zhang Chong, which shows his temperament.


    Such a person, Zhang Xiu will not want.


    When Zhang Yang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was like a cat trampled on its tail. He panicked and said, "Zhang Xiu, my official is the Hanoi prefect appointed by the imperial court. You have no right to deprive me of my official position."


    Zhang xiudao said: "you are the governor of Hanoi appointed by the imperial court, and I am the commander of Sili appointed by the imperial court. This officer is in charge of the area of Sili and supervises the counties of Sili. You''re in Hanoi county. You''re under my government. It''s my duty to deprive you of the official position of Hanoi prefect. "


    "You, you..."


    "You can''t do that," he said


    "Why not?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "nothing is impossible here."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, Wang Yue''s voice sounded outside the camp. Wang Yue followed closely and came to Zhang Xiu. He reported: "Lord, I just received the news from the royal guards. There are some things that involve publicity. Please make up your mind."


    With that, Wang Yue handed over a letter.


    Now every time Wang Yue goes to a place, he takes the initiative to search for information for Zhang Xiu.


    The importance of the royal guards is becoming more and more prominent. Because today''s royal guards are just like Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Open the letter and read it coldly in front of you


    "I''m afraid you''ll read all the books of your life in the dog''s stomach."


    "Full of thieves and prostitutes."


    "The grand governor of Hanoi is so popular that he likes women who are new wives. In particular, I like to work with my subordinates. According to the information, in the past five years, you have killed six Hanoi county officials, from huaixian county magistrate and county magistrate to Hanoi county magistrate, and even meritorious officials and assistant officials. "


    "All those who are executed by you will be destroyed."


    "All the young women in his family are brought home by you, and you can abuse them."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of killing intention.


    He did not expect that Zhang Yang should have such a hobby.


    Zhang Yang likes young women. It''s Zhang Yang''s personal preference. No one can control it. But for her own sake, she would kill innocent people indiscriminately or even frame up Zhongliang, which Zhang Xiu could not tolerate.


    Zhang Xiu''s cheek was cold and said: "Zhang Yang, Zhang Yang, at least you are the prefect of a county. Originally, I just wanted to dismiss you and expel you. Now this situation, you should dieWhen Zhang Yang heard the speech, he could not help shivering.


    What''s going on?


    Everything here, he has done extremely hidden, no one found.


    It''s all found out.


    Zhang Yang was afraid at this moment. He knelt down on the ground and kowtowed: "General Zhang, I''m not an official anymore. I admit my mistake. I''m willing to cooperate with you. General Zhang, please spare my life


    "Spare you?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "forgive you, how can those dead souls rest? Forgive you, how can those who are persecuted by you close their eyes. If I didn''t kill you, how could I stand up to my conscience? "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu ordered directly.


    With an order, a soldier quickly entered and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "drag Zhang Yang out, and make it right."


    "Here it is


    The soldier stretched out his hand and dragged him out.


    Now, Zhang Yang has already been hollowed out by wine and sex. His body is empty, and he has no strength to resist. Being dragged by the soldiers, he has no spare force to resist. He can only be dragged by the soldiers. Even if he tries his best to resist, it will not help.


    "Let me go, let me go!"


    Make it loud.


    "Zhang Xiu, I don''t want to die."


    "Give me a break!"


    "Zhang xiuxiao, you can''t die well, you can''t die well!"


    ¡­¡­


    The sound of publicity is constantly ringing.


    But in the end, Zhang Yang was dragged out. A moment later, a scream came out, and Zhang Yang was killed on the spot.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue, your news is very timely, good!"


    In fact, if Wang Yue didn''t send back the news in time, Zhang Xiu would surely release Zhang Yang even though she was dissatisfied with Zhang Yang''s actions. After all, Zhang Yang didn''t do anything harmful to nature.


    Wang Yue said, "my Lord, I''m wrong!"


    Once again, Zhang Xiu said, "if you want to seal up the prefecture, what should be done is what should be done. In addition, we will issue notices to publicize the crime of publicity and the disposition of publicity. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue arched his hand and turned to withdraw.


    Soon after Wang Yue left, Sima Yi came in again and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Zhongda comes early in the morning. What''s the matter?"


    Sima Yi replied, "I heard that the Lord killed Zhang Yang. Originally, Zhang Yang served as the governor of Hanoi, but there was no shortage of candidates. But now that Zhang Yang has been killed, the position of prefect is vacant. I don''t know if the Lord has any arrangement? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "not yet!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu asked, "what do you think of when you mentioned the position of the prefect of Hanoi?"


    Sima Yi mentioned that she wanted to offer herself to be the prefect of Hanoi or herself. Or, Sima Yi would recommend someone to be the prefect of Hanoi.


    Of course, the latter is more likely.

 Chapter 418

    Sima Yi replied, "my Lord, I know one person in a humble position, and I have outstanding talent and learning, which is enough to be the prefect of Hanoi."


    Sure enough, Sima Yi is a recommended talent.


    Zhang Xiu praised this and asked, "who do you recommend to be the prefect of Hanoi?"


    Sima Yi said: "Yingchuan Huzhao!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose and her heart was clear. On her handsome cheek, she joked and said, "as far as I know, Hu Zhao is your teacher. Is it selfish of you to recommend Hu Zhao? "


    Sima Yi is used to observing words and colors, and has excellent eyesight. As soon as she sees Zhang Xiu''s expression, she knows that Zhang Xiu is not only a joke, but also a test.


    To recommend people, we must convince them.


    There has to be a good reason.


    Sima Yi laughed and said, "I''ll tell you back. Although Hu Zhao is a humble teacher, he doesn''t avoid his relatives. There are two reasons for recommending a teacher in a humble position. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Sima Yi replied: "the first reason is that when the teacher was young, he once served as the magistrate of a county. He managed the local government for a year, and he managed the local government in a big way


    "It''s the teacher''s ability."


    "With the ability of a teacher, it''s no problem to be the prefect of a county."


    "The second reason is that teachers make a lot of friends. He and Wang Yi, the present governor of Hedong, are close friends. When the teacher became the prefect of Hanoi, he could make an envoy to Hedong for the Lord to persuade Wang Yi to surrender. "


    Sima Yi said with great eloquence: "the Lord, as the commander of Sili, now controls the four counties of youfufeng, Jingzhao, Hongnong and Hanoi, but there are Hedong and zuofengyi."


    "Hedong county is a very important place connecting Bingzhou to the north."


    "If you take Hedong, you will only have Zuo Fengyi, who is the last one. That''s nothing to worry about."


    "Wang Yi''s ability is also quite outstanding. To recruit this man, there is another talent for the Lord. "


    Sima Yi said, "this is what I have to worry about in my humble position. Please make a decision."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s reasonable and well founded. But as far as I know, Hu Zhao has always been idle, not like officialdom, living in seclusion in the countryside all the year round, not admiring fame and wealth. It''s not easy to ask him to be an official. "


    Sima Yi was shocked.


    He was surprised at Zhang Xiu''s intelligence, and even Hu Zhao''s detailed information was clear.


    You know, Hu Zhao is a hermit.


    In general, few people know Hu Zhao''s situation unless someone recommends him. Zhang Xiu is young and has never met Hu Zhao, but she is surprised not only to know Hu Zhao, but also to know Hu Zhao''s character and situation.


    Sima Yi took a deep breath, suppressed her surprise, and said: "although the master doesn''t admire fame and wealth, as long as the master personally invites him, with the master''s eloquence, he can make the teacher come out of the mountain."


    After a pause, Sima Yi said, "my Lord is polite to the virtuous and the corporal. There are virtuous talents left in the countryside. Do you have the heart to leave them?"


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she began to laugh. Sima Yi really broke her heart for Hu Zhao.


    However, Zhang Xiu did know Hu Zhao.


    Hu Zhao, whose name is Kong Ming.


    This man is the same as Zhuge Liang. Although he is a hermit, he has outstanding talent.


    Hu Zhao is good at calligraphy.


    Hu Zhao''s official script is elegant, bold and majestic. At that time, Zhong Yao was good at small regular script and was a great calligrapher. Each of them has his own strong points, so there is a saying that Zhong is small and Hu is bold and unconstrained.


    As for Hu Zhao''s ability to govern, there are few historical records.


    But Hu Zhao, no matter Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, had been conquered, hoping to get hu Zhao''s effect.


    Hu Zhao refused.


    Hu Zhao, in particular, was not like an ordinary hermit. He had a stiff temper, and he was tactful. When Cao Cao conquered Hu Zhao, Hu Zhao didn''t directly refuse. Instead, he went to Xu Du in person and told Cao Cao why he didn''t want to be an official.


    Cao Cao was a man of firm mind, but he was convinced by Hu Zhao, and he respected Hu Zhao and let Hu Zhao go.


    We can see Hu Zhao''s ability.


    Not an ordinary person.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "where does Hu Zhao live today?"


    Sima Yi was so happy that she immediately replied, "my Lord, the teacher is just outside huaixian. In the early years, I went to school with my teacher. Later, I left my teacher and came home. "


    "Because the teacher''s whereabouts are uncertain, and I don''t know where the teacher lives. But when I was in the city, I found my former brothers, so I knew where the teacher lived. "


    Sima Yi said: "the place where the teacher lives in seclusion is Yubo pool ten miles northwest of the city."


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you know it, you should go. You go to clean up immediately, and follow me to visit


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded with joy.


    Zhang Xiu is called to Zhang jaw, said to work out of the city, and then put on a white shirt. He wore a long crown, a white shirt with broad collar and a fur cloak, which made him handsome.


    After Zhang Xiu dressed up, she hesitated when she prepared the gift.A visit is a gift.


    Gifts are crucial.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu made a decision in her heart, and let people prepare a pile of rice paper and a box of anthracite.


    The coal was prepared by the army.


    They were all dug out in Luyang county last year and stored after all renovation.


    All the charcoal blocks are clean and smokeless.


    This is the best charcoal.


    Zhang Xiu takes the prepared gift and goes out of the city with Sima Yi. A group of more than ten people went straight to Yubo pool in the northwest.


    Yubo pool is a lake.


    The area of the lake is not large. It is only about three li in radius, with rippling blue waves. There are green mountains and green waters, and some green bamboos. The scenery is very good.


    It doesn''t take long to ride for more than ten miles.


    Zhang Xiu and his party arrived and saw the beautiful landscape. Beside the mountains and rivers, a house stands here. There is only one house nearby, with a quiet environment.


    Hu Zhao lived here.


    In addition to a few of Hu Zhaohe''s followers.


    When the party arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Sima Yi couldn''t wait to turn over and dismount. She came to the gate and knocked on the door ring.


    Soon the door opened.


    A 14-year-old boy opened the door. He was pretty and dressed in coarse linen. He was Hu Zhao''s schoolboy. When he saw Sima Yi, he arched his hand and said, "who are you looking for?"


    When Sima Yi was studying under Hu Zhao''s family, the schoolboy was not there.


    So I didn''t know Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi said, "go and tell me that Zhang Xiu, the commander of Sili school, has come to visit. Sima Yi, an unworthy disciple, asked to see his mentor. "


    "Ah


    The book boy exclaimed and turned to inform.


    Zhang Xiu is so hot.


    In the whole Sili area, there is no one who does not know Zhang Xiu. As soon as the book boy heard Zhang Xiu''s name, he was startled and quickly passed it on. A moment later, a middle-aged scholar strode out.


    He was tall and thin, with bright eyes and elegant demeanor.


    This person is Hu Zhao.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he glanced at Sima Yi. His eyes fell on Zhang Xiu again. He folded his hands and said, "Hu Zhao, a villager in the mountains, meet general Zhang."


    Hu Zhao lived in seclusion in Huai county and knew Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arched her hand back and said with a smile, "Mr. Kong Ming is very polite."


    Hu Zhao waved his hand and said, "General Zhang, please!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    As Hu Zhao walked along, he said, "the humble house is very simple. It makes general Zhang laugh."


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said: "the mountain is not high. If there is an immortal, it will be named. The water is not deep, the dragon is the soul. This is a humble house, but I am Dexin. Mr. Kongming''s residence is neither luxurious nor magnificent, but all the people who come and go here are great Confucianists. Why is it so humble? "


    When Hu Zhao heard this, he was shocked.


    Zhang Xiu is a brave man. When she opens her mouth, she shows her bearing and talent, which makes Hu Zhao respect her heart.


    It''s not easy!


    Zhang Xiu is not simple!


    This is Hu Zhao''s first impression.


    Hu Zhao''s face changed slightly. He said modestly, "General Zhang, I''m just a humble abode. Where can I deserve such praise?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Kong Ming is very kind."

 Chapter 419

    Soon, Hu Zhao and Zhang Xiu entered the hall. When the guests and guests are seated, as soon as Zhang Xiu waves, a servant enters with ready rice paper and superior anthracite.


    Two boxes on the ground, one big and one small, the big one is anthracite, the small one is rice paper.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Kong Ming''s first visit is just a vulgar thing, not a respect. Please accept it with a smile. "


    Hu Zhao didn''t know what was in the box. He had a preconceived idea that what was in the box must be precious gold cakes, so Hu Zhao said directly: "General Zhang''s kindness is Hu Zhao''s heart."


    "Anyway, I''m from the mountains and I don''t need any money."


    "To live in this Yubo pool, you have to rely on mountains and water. There''s a smell in the mountains, fish in the water, and chickens, ducks and other poultry in the back of the mountains. There''s no shortage of food and clothing. "


    Hu Zhao said: "therefore, general Zhang''s kindness is well received. These are useless. General Zhang, please take them back. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Kong Ming is a Miao Yi!"


    Hu Zhao said: "how to say?"


    Zhang xiuchao nodded to Sima Yi, and saw Sima Yi go out and open two boxes, revealing the rice paper inside and the available anthracite.


    Hu Zhao was also surprised.


    It''s rice paper!


    Although Hu Zhao lived in seclusion in yubochi, he used a lot of rice paper to study classics, and he was not unfamiliar with rice paper.


    Anthracite. He didn''t use it.


    Hu Zhao knew that he had misunderstood Zhang Xiu. He thought it was precious jade, but he didn''t expect it was not vulgar.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "when I first came to the door, I had nothing to prepare for, so I brought some rice paper and anthracite. You don''t need to introduce Xuan paper. Mr. Kong Ming certainly knows. "


    "This anthracite is only produced in Luyang County under my rule. It is smokeless and tasteless when burned, and has no toxicity at all. Now it prevails in the whole Nanyang County and the areas under my command. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "even under the rule of Cao Cao, many people use it."


    "Seriously?"


    Hu Zhao''s elegant face showed a look of astonishment.


    He knew that coal was poisonous.


    But the coal and stone mined by Zhang Xiu is smokeless and tasteless, which is really surprising.


    Zhang xiudao said, "you will know when you try!"


    Hu Zhao readily agreed and said with a smile, "let''s have a try!"


    Immediately, Hu Zhao called the bookboy beside him and asked him to take a few pieces of anthracite to ignite. After a while, the bookboy returned with a fire basin filled with anthracite.


    Under the anthracite, there is some burning charcoal. Because of the cold weather, there is charcoal in your house. Put anthracite on it and it will burn soon.


    Hu Zhao looked carefully, did not smell the smell, did not see the smoke, tut tut praised: "wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    The gift he gave was not gold, silver and jewelry, but it made Hu happy.


    Zhang xiudao said, "it''s just a vulgar ceremony. I hope Mr. Kong Ming doesn''t mind."


    Hu Zhao stroked his beard and said, "this is the most wonderful gift!"


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said directly, "I''m coming to visit you. First, I heard that Mr. Kong Ming is in Yubo pool and is coming to visit you. Second, Mr. Kong Ming has great talent. Zhang Xiu sincerely invites Mr. Kong Ming to become an official and seek happiness for the people. "


    Hu Zhao''s face remained unchanged when he heard the speech.


    He is used to soliciting.


    In the past, Yuan Shao once solicited him, but he did not become an official.


    General Hu Zhaoran said, "I''m flattered. It''s just that I''m a country man, and I''m not fit to be an official. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Hu Zhao''s bearing is just like, reply: "I have three reasons!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''d like to hear it in detail!"


    Hu Zhao said: "first, I don''t know how to run a country. If we want to run the country, we must have corresponding ability. If you don''t have any ability, but you are in a high position, it will be a simple meal, and even bring harm to the people. "


    "A person who knows how to run a country can make the people in his jurisdiction live and work in peace and contentment."


    "A person who doesn''t know how to run a country, but can run a country by doing nothing, at least the people will not be affected and can live a stable life."


    "A person who doesn''t know how to run a country, but also wants to benefit the people and issue government orders at random will only screw things up. It not only makes people lose their original days, but also increases their burden. "


    Hu Zhao said: "I don''t know anything and I''m not suitable to be an official. This is the first reason."


    Zhang Xiu is funny.


    Hu Zhao didn''t understand, but it was just this great truth that demonstrated Hu Zhao''s rigorous logic.


    Hu Zhao is a man of ability.


    Zhang Xiu did not immediately refute, said with a smile: "Mr. Kong Ming''s second reason?"


    Hu Zhao replied, "second, I don''t know how to use troops. Soldiers in the army, or fierce generals fighting in battle, such as fan Kuai of the Han Dynasty, can fight in battle even though they don''t know how to use troops. ""Or, like Han Xin of the Han Dynasty, he knows how to March and set up an array, control thousands of soldiers and attack cities and lands."


    "I''m neither a strong general nor a wise general. I can''t stand in the army."


    "This is my second reason," Hu said


    Zhang Xiu said, "what about the third?"


    Hu Zhao saw that Zhang Xiu was still very interested, with a dignified expression, and a little more solemnity between his eyebrows.


    It seems that Zhang Xiu was not convinced.


    Hu Zhao cheered up and continued: "third, I''m used to the days of idle clouds and wild cranes. I don''t like to be restrained, nor do I like the intrigue of officialdom, nor do I have the habit of flattering and echoing. I''m afraid it''s difficult for me to integrate into general Zhang''s command."


    "Like me, if you don''t succeed in writing, it''s just a bit of a false name."


    "It''s hard to live up to the reputation."


    "General Zhang came to invite me because of Zhongda''s influence. In fact, I can talk on paper. The rest, I''m too poor. It''s just empty talk, but in fact it''s high minded and low handed, and it doesn''t have much ability. "


    Hu Zhao made a summary for himself.


    At the end of his speech, Sima Yi opened her mouth.


    He didn''t agree with Hu Zhao.


    As a disciple of Hu Zhao, Sima Yi knows Hu Zhao''s ability well. Let alone the prefect of a county, Sima Yi thinks Hu Zhao is competent even if he is the governor of a state.


    As soon as she sees that he''s ready to speak, she just stares.


    At that time, Sima Yi did not speak.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is still indifferent, without the slightest anxiety. Hu Zhao''s refusal not only didn''t dispel Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, but also made Zhang Xiu appreciate it more.


    Hu Zhao hides his clumsiness everywhere, but in Zhang Xiu''s opinion, Hu Zhao is absolutely talented.


    Zhang Xiu wants to attract Hu Zhao, but she is also prepared. She can''t be beaten by Hu Zhao in a few words. She doesn''t need Sima Yi''s help.


    This is how he recruited Hu Zhao.


    He wants to come out on his own.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath. Without following Hu Zhao''s words, she said with a slight smile, "Mr. Kong Ming said just now that you are just empty talk. I think of one thing. I want to consult Mr. Kong Ming."


    Hu Zhao was a little surprised.


    He said a good thing, it seems that Zhang Xiu did not listen to the same.


    This is a digression.


    Hu Zhao did not refuse, saying: "I don''t know what general Zhang wants to ask?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "today''s world is in chaos. The so-called "making heroes in troubled times" is true for both the ambitious monarchs and the aspiring scholars. Everyone has countless opportunities. But why are there so few real scholars and scholars who have become officials in the chaos


    The so-called empty talk is verbal skill.


    Since Hu Zhao said nothing, Zhang Xiu took it as a breakthrough.


    Open Hu Zhao''s voice first.


    When Hu Zhao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he didn''t say he didn''t know. He explained: "there are not many taxis in the world, of course, there are not many. However, most of the scholars were from prestigious families. Even if it''s not a respectable family, it''s also a child of a big family who has a good family and doesn''t worry about food and clothing. "


    "There are not many of them, but there are also many."


    "Besides, there are many poor scholars."


    "There are not many and many children of noble families, but compared with the whole world''s demand for scholars, these people are just a drop in the ocean, and they are far from enough."


    "This is because there are few scholars."


    "In fact, although there are many poor scholars, because it is difficult to study and because there is no one to recommend them, even though many poor scholars are talented, they lack opportunities and can''t stand out."


    "That''s why there are so few scholars."


    "In fact, with a general''s rice paper, it''s easier for many poor scholars to read."


    Hu Zhao said here with a look of Qi ran on his face.


    In the early years, he was.


    Hu Zhao was once a poor family. When he was young, it was a tough road for him to become an official. After a little bit of accumulation of fame, it was only in this situation that there were many people to solicit.


    However, he has lost interest in becoming an official and is not willing to get involved in the disputes in the world of mortals.

 Chapter 420

    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn and said: "on the one hand, Mr. Zhang''s talent is outstanding. On the other hand, it is precisely because there is no way for a poor scholar to become an official that he invited him to preside over important affairs. "


    "Alas..."


    Hu Zhao sighed.


    With a helpless smile on his face, he said, "General Zhang, I''d like to make all the poor scholars in the world have books to read, talents to display and become officials."


    Speaking of this, Hu Zhao pauses for a moment and says with emotion: "but I can''t do anything. There''s no way for poor scholars to become officials, and I''m also a cloth garment. How can I help them?"


    "Yes, sir," said Zhang Xiu


    "I can''t!"


    Hu Zhao said: "I can''t really help with my little ability."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Mr. Zhang is not alone in the struggle. It''s just the so-called saying that I am not alone. If you work hard, I will help you. Most of all, I have a solution. It''s just that I need your help. "


    Hu Zhaodao: "what method?"


    At this moment, Hu Zhao''s curiosity rose in his heart.


    As a person from a poor family, he knows the sufferings of poor scholars. Although Hu Zhao refused Zhang Xiu''s invitation, at this time, he could not hide his curiosity and asked.


    Zhang Xiu replied, "I''d like to start a career and win a scholar!"


    Hu Zhao said: "how to win a scholar?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "the classic books that I set up for the assessment, as well as the methods of using troops and governing the country, whether the poor or the children of the aristocratic family, all come to my command to participate in the assessment."


    "If you want to become an official, you have to assess."


    "As long as they pass the examination, I will give them official posts according to their achievements, so that they will have the ambition to extend their career, instead of serving the country."


    "In fact, the Chang''an area under my command is already in the process of pushing forward. It''s just that Chang''an''s assessment is conducted in the way of recruiting talents instead of forming rules. "


    "Anyone who is willing to work for me can go to the Ministry of officials to accept the examination, and if he passes, he will be appointed as an official."


    "It''s not a charter!"


    Zhang Xiu talked with a little emotion and said: "I want to pilot in Hanoi county. Taking Hanoi County as a precedent, the government of Hanoi county will issue a notice specially to pass the official assessment of scholars and start from the county level."


    "If you pass the examination at the county level, you will enter the county level."


    "And then, I passed the county level examination and entered into the examination under my command. As long as you can pass the examination, you can get an official position and become an official. "


    "That''s the Charter."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the people who pass the examination will have the children of aristocratic families, the children of poor families and the ability to accept all rivers. Not only that, but also at the same time every year. "


    "In this cycle, more and more poor scholars will pass the examination and gradually form a scale. Moreover, the poor scholars will always help each other, and more and more poor scholars will become officials. "


    "Eventually, a virtuous circle will be formed."


    Zhang Xiu talks and looks wise.


    After hearing this, Hu Zhao widened his eyes and showed surprise and even admiration.


    Is this Zhang Xiu?


    Is this an idea that Wufu can come up with?


    Sima Yi stood on one side, his heart was also extremely shocked. It seems that here in Zhang Xiu, there are always many secrets that can''t be explored, which can be thrown out for use at the most critical time.


    Sima Yi came from a distinguished family.


    Although Sima family is not a big family, it is also a famous family in Wenxian county. There are few scholars in poor families, and there are not many ways out, so the general trend of the world, to a certain extent, is that the aristocratic family is in charge.


    Through the reform of Zhang Xiu, there will be more and more poor scholars who become officials.


    It''s the end of the family.


    Sima Yi thought of the deep, cold can not help but take a cold breath. But for the Sima family, it didn''t have much influence. Because the Sima family is not really a big family, especially now the Sima family is valued by Zhang Xiu and has no influence.


    The rest of the aristocratic families are sad.


    It''s really talent oriented.


    Hu Zhao thought of the consequences of starting a successful career, and said: "General Zhang, if you only try to make a pilot, it will not have any impact, but the formation of rules and regulations assessment, open starting a successful career, I''m afraid it will cause an uproar."


    Zhang Xiu said, "and then?"


    Hu Zhao replied, "what you have done will be resisted by many aristocratic families."


    Zhang xiudao said, "and then?"


    Zhao said: "they are very likely to boycott you."


    Zhang Xiu shrugged, a pair of indifferent look, zhengse way: "so what, since it is the right thing, why not do it? Because someone resists, I have to give up? Because there are objections, I''m going to give in? "


    "This is not my style of Zhang Xiu."


    "Although the road is difficult, but although thousands of people, I also go!"


    Zhang Xiu''s expression became solemn, and her words were shocking.When Hu Zhao heard this, he was awed.


    He originally heard Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, is to refuse Zhang Xiu. Now hear Zhang Xiu''s words, but feel blood boiling.


    His heart, eager to try.


    Although Hu Zhao is idle, there is a warm blood in his heart.


    Hu Zhao took a deep breath, thought about it, and said again, "General Zhang, are you really not afraid of the family''s counterattack?"


    "No fear


    Zhang Xiu confident smile, said: "I Zhang Xiu based in Nanyang, sweeping Guanzhong, not rely on the power of the aristocratic family. I rely on, first, my own wisdom, second, the powerful generals under my command, and third, the bravery of the soldiers. "


    "The family''s praise and support are just icing on the cake."


    "What''s more, if you can attract the poor scholars in the world, why are you afraid of the aristocratic family? In particular, aristocratic families are not monolithic, and they are just incompetent families. "


    "The children of a noble family with insight and ability, no matter what their origins, are able to move in all directions and display their ambitions. As long as I can give them a platform to show their talents, someone will come back. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "as the saying goes, those who gain more help, those who lose less help, that''s true!"


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Sima Yi heard Zhang Xiu''s words and couldn''t help saying a word.


    At this moment, Sima Yi was impressed by Zhang Xiu.


    In the past, Sima Yi asked Zhang Xiu three questions. Compared with today, he felt that the three questions in the past were too small. What he heard today is really enlightening.


    Sima Yi completely recognized Zhang Xiu.


    Hu Zhao stood up without any hesitation, folded his hands, solemnly saluted Zhang Xiu and said, "Hu Zhao, I''m willing to serve the general."


    "Hu Zhao, Yingchuan, meet the Lord."


    With that, Hu Zhao bowed to the end with a respectful look.


    He decided to become an official, to practice what Zhang Xiu said. Because Zhang Xiu''s words aroused his ambition.


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    The imperial examination is his trump card.


    Previously Hu Zhao refused simply, Zhang Xiu deliberately did not answer, deliberately avoid the topic. Through Zhang Xiu''s reinterpretation, Hu Zhao''s desire to become an official was aroused, so that Hu Zhao could be recruited.


    Zhang Xiu got up and walked up to Hu Zhao and said with a smile, "today, I worship Mr. Kongming as the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture."


    "Thank you


    Hu Zhao thanks again.


    After Hu Zhao stood up, he regained his relaxed look and said: "before his humble duty, he was so full of words that he didn''t expect to be vulnerable in front of the Lord. The eloquence of the Lord is no less than that of the strategists. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "mistakenly praised Mr


    Hu Zhao had a thoughtful look in his eyes and said: "the reform of Hanoi county can not be completed overnight. In particular, Hanoi is adjacent to Jizhou, and there is a fear of war. "


    Zhang Xiu straightened out: "it is precisely because of war that it is easiest to push forward. The war spread, and there were few aristocratic families. Chang''an, for example, used to be empty. It''s easier for families to move away or be destroyed. "


    Hu Zhao''s eyes lit up and said, "my Lord is right, but it''s a great cause for thousands of years to start a career. You can''t be impatient and you have to work slowly. Huaixian county was taken as a pilot and then gradually promoted. When you have enough prestige, you can promote it all over the county. "


    "That''s exactly what it is," said Zhang Xiu


    Zhang Xiu appreciates Hu Zhao''s reason.


    If we want to accomplish something, we can''t accomplish it overnight. We must push it forward a little bit.

 Chapter 421

    Zhang Xiu and Hu Zhao said something more about starting a scholar, but they didn''t realize the passage of time. It was noon in the twinkling of an eye. Zhang Xiu was at Hu Zhao''s house and left after lunch.


    Because Hu Zhao had to deal with some housework and prepare for his appointment, he had to wait two days.


    Zhang Xiu and Sima Yi return first.


    Sima Yi had a happy look on her face and said, "my Lord, the teacher''s ability is not bad."


    Zhang Xiu looks at Sima Yi and smiles.


    The expression on Sima Yi''s face seemed to be "praise me quickly.".


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s all your recommendation."


    Sima Yi said, "my Lord, I praise you falsely."


    When they return to huaixian City, Sima Yi is busy with her own affairs, while Zhang Xiu walks around the army to investigate the situation of the army''s reorganization.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning left with their troops, while Zhang Ya stayed in Huai County, constantly reorganizing the regular army and strengthening the running in of the army. After all, a considerable number of these soldiers were soldiers who once belonged to Yuan Shao.


    This is to run in.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and didn''t worry.


    He can handle affairs with ease.


    Shortly after Zhang Xiu returned to the Chinese Army''s tent and sat down, some soldiers reported to him and said, "general, there are three old men with white heads outside the camp. They are about 50 or 60 years old. They came together and asked to see the general. "


    "Come in, please!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Soldiers to inform, Zhang Xiu is thinking about the purpose of these people.


    It wasn''t long. Three people entered.


    Three people''s stature, tall, short, fat and thin are not much different, is medium build. After the three stood, they saluted Zhang Xiu and explained their names.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, asked: "three to see this official, do not know what is the matter?"


    "The general killed and publicized, and removed a harm for Hanoi county. All the Hanoi county were grateful to General Zhang for his kindness. With general Zhang in Hanoi County, there will be no war now. "


    The person who speaks is the oldest.


    He was leaning on crutches, with his back slightly bent.


    His name is Shi Zhang, from huaixian county. The historian where Shi Zhang lived was also a big family in Huai county. He is in his early sixties. In this era, people who live to be in their early sixties can be regarded as long-lived.


    After Shi Zhang opened his mouth, another slightly thin old man came forward and said, "we are here today to congratulate the general and welcome him to huaixian."


    His name is Dou Yu.


    Dou Yu is a native of Heyang County, but his family moved to Huai County long ago and is the head of the Dou family.


    The last one was named Niu Li.


    He was the youngest, just over fifty, with a smile on his face, and said, "General Zhang captured huaixian. We should come to celebrate. The three of us brought gifts, which were all placed outside the camp. "


    Zhang Xiu listens to He Xi''s words, in the heart gujingbubo.


    Daoxi?


    He doesn''t believe it.


    These aristocratic families have never been able to get up early without profit. How can they come to Zhang Xiu without interest? It''s bound to be for him that we came together.


    Moreover, these big families are not very strong, but they have some abilities.


    Zhang Xiu read the information sent by Wang Yue and knew something about the big families in Huai county. He knows the historians, the Dou family and the Niu family. According to the records in the newspaper, the three families are still law-abiding and have not found anything illegal for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu restrained her mind and said, "what gifts have you brought?"


    Niu Li said, "come on, bring the gift in."


    The attendant waiting at the gate of the camp immediately went to inform him. In a short time, there were three families of attendants, carrying a box into the tent, all placed neatly.


    Niu Li waved his hand. After the valet stepped down, he personally went forward and opened a box.


    Ten big boxes.


    In the big box, all are glittering, all are precious jade.


    When the last big box was opened, there was a young woman in it. The woman was about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was born with charming eyebrows, pretty cheeks and outstanding beauty.


    After she stood up, she couldn''t help but wink at Zhang Xiu and show her graceful posture.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, it was even more funny.


    Give money, also give a woman, this is a gift to people must ask.


    Otherwise, who would be so boring, giving money to women.


    Zhang Xiu looks motionless. For him, although this graceful woman is charming, it is not enough to shake his mind. He drew back his eyes and said faintly, "it''s too solemn of you to be so gracious."


    Niu Li said, "this is what adults deserve."


    Shi Zhang said, "my Lord, this is a little bit of our three families'' wishes."


    Dou Yu said, "please accept it."


    Zhang Xiu put her hand on the desk and gently knocked on the desk. She said faintly, "what''s the meaning of this?"Niu Li looked happy and said, "this is just a little bit of our mind after general Zhang calmed Hanoi and got rid of Zhang Yang. This is also our gratitude to General Zhang? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "is that true?"


    "Yes


    Niu Li, Shi Zhang and Dou Yu answered.


    Zhang Xiu thought a turn, in the heart make a plan, then say: "since you said so, this will smile accept."


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In an instant, a soldier entered. Zhang Xiu said, "take nine boxes full of money and this woman down for the time being and put them in the camp alone."


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers got down, they immediately took action.


    Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li all smile. If Zhang Xiu receives money and women, it will be easy.


    When all the boxes were removed, the woman also took them away. Shi Zhang took the initiative to say, "now that Zhang Yang has been killed, there are no leaders in Hanoi county. If there is no one in charge, I''m afraid there will be trouble. I think that general Zhang must arrange a person to be the prefect of Hanoi as soon as possible, and the stability of the situation is the key. "


    Zhang Xiu''s heart moved.


    Here we go!


    This is the purpose of Shi Zhang and others, for the sake of Hanoi Prefecture.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "it''s the so-called gathering talents without avoiding relatives. As long as they are talented people, I can''t wait for them. Shi Gong mentioned that Hanoi County lacks a prefect. I don''t know if Shi Gong has a suitable candidate? "


    "There is one!"


    Shi Zhang replied with a smile.


    He thinks that Zhang Xiu is really on the road, he did not take the initiative to mention, Zhang Xiu asked.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Dou Yu and Niu Li and said, "where are you two


    Dou Yu said: "Mr. Zhang, we have the same attitude as Shi Gong."


    Niuli immediately agreed.


    Shi Zhang said: "the candidate recommended by Lao Jiu is Shi Na. Although he is a disciple of the historian, he is honest, fair and just, and has a good way of governing the place. "


    "Shi Na once served as the magistrate of Heyang County. During the period of governance, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Later, when Shi Na was sick and resigned, he came back home to cultivate himself. To this day, he has never been an official


    "Shi Na is nearly forty years old, and it''s time to be young and powerful."


    Shi Zhang looked confident and said, "if you have Shi Na as the prefect of Hanoi County, you will surely be able to make Hanoi rule."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Oh, where are people?"


    For Shi Na recommended by historians, Zhang Xiu can not let him be the prefect of Hanoi county. Because he has appointed Hu Zhao, next, it can only be Hu Zhao as the prefect.


    What''s more, Shi Na is a member of the historian family. As the governor of Hanoi and the historian family, it''s too easy to make a profit.


    Shi Na is talented. Zhang Xiu doesn''t mind staying.


    If Shi Na is incompetent, Zhang Xiu can''t let Shi na be an official. Even if Shi Na came from a big family, even if Shi Na was recommended by Shi Zhang and others, it would not help.

 Chapter 422

    When Shi Zhang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he immediately said, "report back to the general, Shi Na is waiting outside the barracks."


    Zhang Xiu said, "let him in!"


    Shi Zhang was so happy that he immediately ordered him to go down. Not long ago, a middle-aged man in his late 40s, with a thick face and a slightly dull expression, entered the market. After he stood still, he saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully and said, "I''ll meet general Zhang in next Shi Na."


    Zhang Xiu looks at Shi Na, a trace of unhappiness in her eyes.


    It''s too late.


    Just the face of Shi Na, it gives people a sense of dullness, without a trace of flexibility.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not a judge by his appearance. He said in a deep voice: "just now, Shi Gong, Niu Gong and Dou Gong jointly recommended that you can be the prefect of Hanoi county and that you have great talent."


    Shi Na said, "my Lord, you are wrong."


    Zhang Xiu a listen, the corner of the mouth smoked.


    Did he have a compliment?


    He only elaborated the recommendation of Shi Zhang, Niu Li, Dou Yu and others, but Shi Na thought Zhang Xiu praised her.


    Zhang Xiu suppressed her displeasure and continued: "if you are the governor of Hanoi, how will you govern Hanoi county?"


    Shi Na replied, "if I am the prefect of Hanoi, I will be able to appoint people with rich experience, such as Shi Gong, Niu Gong and Dou Gong, who are close to the virtuous, far away from the treacherous and sycophantic, and take them as models."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shakes her head.


    If Shi Na was the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture, he would be afraid that Hanoi Prefecture, on the surface, would submit to Zhang Xiu, but in fact, it was a state of the state.


    Completely controlled by the big family.


    This is something that Zhang Xiu does not allow to happen. When it comes to harnessing Hanoi, Shi Na''s answer on the surface is, in fact, very vague. What is pro virtuous and what is appointing virtuous and capable people is a vague and broad concept.


    It''s no use.


    Zhang Xiu thought that the Dou family, the Niu family and the historians were the three obstacles to Hu Zhao''s local governance.


    However, the three families have nothing against the law and discipline.


    Zhang Xiu had no reason to deal with it. He thought about it for a while, and soon made a decision. He said, "as for the selection of the prefect of Hongnong County, I also have a candidate."


    Brush!


    Shi Zhang and others had a slight change of complexion.


    The three looked at each other, worried.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Shi Na you recommended is a talented person. I choose talents. But who can be competent for the post of Hanoi prefect depends on their respective abilities. Two days later, at the gate of the palace. At that time, Shi Na competed with another person in public to discuss talent and ability, and the outstanding one served as the prefect of Hongnong county. "


    Zhang Xiu put forward a proposal. The reason why he did so was to let Hu Zhao defeat Shi Na in public to establish his prestige.


    It''s also building prestige.


    Shi Na''s face changed slightly, her heart was worried, and her eyes immediately looked at Shi Zhang.


    Shi Zhang frowned, his white eyebrows were shaking, and the three strands of white beard under his jaw were shaking slightly. After some consideration, he asked: "dare to ask general Zhang, who is the other side?"


    Zhang xiudao: "Yingchuan Huzhao!"


    Shi Zhang''s heart suddenly tightened.


    As the master of the historian, he did not know the news outside, and knew that Hu Zhao lived in Yubo pool.


    Hu Zhao was a great hermit. Even Yuan Shao, a herdsman in Jizhou, sent people to recruit him. If Shi Na and Hu Zhao face each other, Shi Na has no chance of winning in front of Hu Zhao.


    At this moment, SNA was afraid.


    He looked at Shi Zhang again, worried.


    Zhang Xiu sees Shi Na''s air and action in her eyes, but she is not happy in her heart. A man who has no opinion of his own and is just a puppet of his family, he doesn''t like him.


    The reason for the two sides to face each other is to see what the historians and other three families have in mind, and also to give Hu Zhao an opportunity.


    Shi Zhang took a deep breath and said, "I agree with what general Zhang said. If it''s on stage, then it''s on stage. "


    Shi Na opens his mouth to speak, but Shi Zhang stares at him. When he reaches his mouth, he swallows it back.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go back!"


    "Here it is


    Shi Zhang''s four people should go down together.


    After Ma Jiuzhang and others handed out the money to Shi junzhang, Zhang shouts


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "the woman sent by the historian will be rewarded to you."


    "Ah


    Sima Yi shook her head in a panic and said, "Lord, don''t do anything. This woman is given to you by historians. I can''t afford to give her a humble position. "


    Zhang xiudao: "you take it."


    Sima Yi looked up at Zhang Xiu and saw that Zhang Xiu was firm. He knew that he could not refuse. He could only face bitterly and said, "thank you, Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao: "this woman, do you know what to do with it?"


    Sima Yi said, "kill me?"


    Zhang Xiu looks at Sima Yi like a smile. Sima Yi said with a smile, "don''t worry, my Lord. After accepting her, she is a cage bird. What she should know will let her know. What she shouldn''t know won''t be revealed at all."Zhang Xiu said, "you just understand!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to receive the gift from the aristocratic family, and he didn''t like it. Just throw it to Sima Yi, whatever Sima Yi does.


    Sima Yi changed the subject and said: "Lord, historians, Niu family and Dou family, they even want to plan for the governor of Hanoi. Now the Lord mentioned the contest in two days. I''m afraid the teacher is in danger these days. "


    Zhang xiudao: "let you come, also have the arrangement about this matter."


    Sima Yi said, "please make it public!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you go to Wang Yue and ask him to allocate a group of royal guards to Yubo pool to protect Hu Zhao. Once someone wants to be assassinated, they will be killed except for the people who are interrogated. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi bowed her hand.


    At this moment, Sima Yi was excited. When it comes to his mentor, these aristocratic families, he will never be soft handed if he wants to play any tricks.


    Sima Yi suddenly said, "Lord, do you want to thoroughly investigate historians and other big families?"


    Zhang xiudao: "it has been checked, there is no big problem."


    Sima Yi nodded and said nothing more. After he left Zhang Xiu''s camp, he soon came to the camp where Wang Yue lived. When Sima Yi entered, Wang Yue was very busy.


    He has too many things to deal with, because there is too much intelligence gathered.


    After Sima Yi entered, she bowed her hand to Wang Yue and said, "prince, you are still so busy!"


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord has entrusted me so much that I dare not fail."


    Sima Yi said with a smile: "in fact, in my opinion, you don''t have to work so hard. All the information collected from different places is with you. It''s up to you to write it down. It''s too much and too complicated. Where can you remember it? Besides, you don''t have to be so classified. You can do it another way


    Wang Yue said, "what can I do?"


    Wang Yue doesn''t despise Sima Yi at all. Zhang Xiu asks for Sima Yi by name. The people who can follow Zhang Xiu are by no means simple people.


    Sima Yi smile, said: "each place''s information, you have a separate storage, and then a separate person responsible."


    "Besides, the person in charge of the information of a place not only has to look through the information for you, but also has to sort out the outline. At least, when presenting the events, I will give you an outline at the front


    "So you can see it at a glance."


    "What you want to look up can be selected according to the outline. In doing so, on the one hand, it is convenient for you to browse quickly, on the other hand, it is convenient for you to access. "


    Sima Yi said: "for example, if the Lord needs it, you can find it immediately according to the outline."


    "In a word, it''s not a bad thing to decentralize power properly and let the people below share it for you. You are the manager of the royal guards. You only need to control the whole, that''s the most suitable one. "


    "Shangwei is not one of the six books. We have to learn from the ministers, decentralize the power and decompose our own affairs. "


    "Otherwise, you are too tired."


    "Once you are too busy, in the end, you may not be able to fulfill the Lord''s heavy trust," Sima Yi said


    Wang Yue''s face was full of joy and he said, "thanks for what Zhongda said


    Sima Yi said, "you are welcome."


    After a pause, Sima Yi continued: "I came to see the prince to convey the Lord''s order."


    Wang Yue said, "Zhongda, please say it."


    Sima Yi immediately said Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, let Wang Yue transfer the royal guards to protect Hu Zhao''s safety. After finishing the story, Sima Yi said again: "I heard from the Lord that the prince found that there was no big problem with the historians, the Dou family and the Niu family, but when it came to the teachers, I hope Wang gong''an would arrange a line and carefully investigate the affairs of the three families."


    After a pause, Sima Yi said, "of course, this is my personal request."


    Wang Yue said with a smile: "where is Zhong Da? Although it''s your personal request, it''s not careless when it comes to Hu Taishou. I''ll arrange for it. "


    "Thank you very much."


    Sima Yi gave thanks.


    Wang Yue replied modestly. To him, he is just a martial arts man. He is not necessarily better than Sima Yi in dealing with many things. It is also helpful for him to make friends with Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi left with a smile in her mouth.


    He would like to see what the historians, the Niu family and the Dou family are going to do.

 Chapter 423

    Huaixian, south of the city.


    Although the south of the city is not the gathering place of Hanoi county government, it is the most prosperous place. The commercial center of huaixian county is gathered here.


    A house stands on ningchen street in the south of the city.


    On the top of the house, there is a plaque with three characters of "Shizhai".


    This is a historian.


    The whole ningchen street is the site of historians. It runs across the whole street and covers an extremely large area.


    Shi Zhang, Niu Li, Dou Yu, and Shi Na returned from the barracks and took their seats in the hall.


    Shi Zhang sits on the throne.


    He looked around and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu''s intention is to let Hu Zhaohe and Shi Na fight. However, Hu Zhao is a first-class person in both talent and ability. In front of such a famous person, Shi Na has no advantage. What do you think? "


    SNA sat down and said nothing.


    He has no say.


    Among historians, Shi Na was not born directly, but a collateral child. It''s just that he is close to Shi Zhang, and his son is a dandy. He is not successful. That''s why Shi Zhang supports Shi Na.


    Dou Yu said in a deep voice: "in my opinion, Zhang Xiu just doesn''t want Shi Na to be the prefect."


    Shi Zhang gave Dou Yu a white look.


    This is bullshit.


    If Zhang Xiu let Shi Na take the post, Hu Zhao would not be pushed out.


    Niu Li continued: "it''s fair competition, but it''s about talent and talent. Let alone Shi Na, it''s about looking at the whole huaixian county and even the whole Hanoi county. Can we find out who can compete with Hu Zhao? This is extremely difficult. "


    After a pause, Niu Li continued: "Zhang Xiu said that he would fight fairly in two days. In my opinion, he was worried about the strength of the three families. In addition, because we gave women and money, he was too soft with money to refuse. That''s why the contest was specially arranged. If we go to visit empty handed, we will reject brother Shi''s suggestion directly. "


    "That''s true!"


    Shi Zhang agreed with Niu Li''s analysis.


    He stroked his beard under his jaw and thought for a while, saying: "if our three families want to jointly control Hanoi county and seek greater benefits, there must be someone on the table. If you can''t get the post of Hanoi prefect, you can''t achieve your goal. "


    Dou Yu said: "brother Shi, you are resourceful. If you think about it carefully, what are your strategies?"


    "Hard!"


    Niu Li sighs.


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice, "maybe we can have two plans."


    "Which two options?"


    As soon as Niu Li heard Shi Zhang''s words, he was immediately excited.


    In Shi Zhang''s turbid eyes, he passed a fine light and said in a deep voice: "first, we''ll go to Yubo pool immediately to see Hu Zhao and let him quit automatically. As long as Hu Zhao withdraws, Zhang Xiu will have nothing to say. No wonder we. "


    "In the second plan, if Hu Zhao is not willing to quit, we will support Hu Zhao and let him cooperate with us. In this way, the three families can also make huge profits. "


    Shi Zhang asked, "what do you think?"


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Dou Yu''s face was full of joy and praised: "brother Shi, you are really resourceful."


    Niu Li also said, "it''s a good way. Let''s do it."


    Shi Na, who didn''t speak all the time, suddenly said, "master, in case, I say in case, Hu Zhao doesn''t cooperate? He doesn''t want to quit and he doesn''t want to cooperate with us. "


    "No way!"


    Shi Zhang raised his head and gave a resounding answer.


    Niu Li stroked his beard and laughed. Looking at Shi Na, he said, "Xiao Shi, the power of the three families is the best in Hanoi. Without our cooperation, Hu Zhao would not have been able to sit firmly in Hanoi. If he doesn''t cooperate, there''s nothing he can do. What''s more, we look up to him when we let him cooperate. "


    Dou Yu also felt good about himself and said, "yes, my three families are also prominent families in Hanoi county. We support Hu Zhao so that he can carry out his orders. Otherwise, his orders will only be limited to the prefect''s office. "


    The strongest force of the aristocratic family is the intertwined forces.


    Everywhere, there are family members.


    Once the people below disobey, many orders will not be carried out, which is also the strength of Dou Yu, Niu Li and Shi Zhang. After all, he was only a junior of historians.


    He only obeyed the family''s instructions and had no superfluous ideas.


    Shi Zhang immediately stood up and said, "it''s not too late. We''ll go to Yubo pool immediately. Now take a carriage and go faster. We can go back before dark. "


    Niu Li and Dou Yu are both responding.


    Shi Na stayed in the historian.


    After a short time, a carriage drove out of the historian and quickly went north. When it got out of the north of the city, it went to the direction of Yubo pool.


    "Wheel! The wheels


    The wheels turned, and the faces of the three men in the carriage were full of joy. In their opinion, it is a trivial matter to go to see Hu Zhao this time, and it is bound to be successful.The three talked in a pleasant atmosphere.


    When the carriage came to Yubo pool and stopped, Shi Zhang got out of the carriage and stopped to look at the place.


    Shi Zhang looked around and said with admiration, "Yubo pool is really beautiful here. I''ve heard of Yubo pool before, but never in the future. This Yubo pool is really good. "


    Dou Yu laughed and said, "brother Shi, if you like, you can move here."


    "No need!"


    Shi Zhang stroked his beard and said, "when people are old, they still like lively places. Yubo pool is a beautiful place, but it''s too cold. It''s not human, it''s not popular. "


    Niu Li said, "it is true."


    "Let''s go!"


    Shi Zhang shakes his sleeve and goes to Hu Zhao''s house.


    The three came to the outside of the house, and the servant knocked on the door. After a while, the bookboy opened the door and asked, "what are you doing here, three old gentlemen?"


    Shi Zhang said, "please inform Mr. Hu Zhao that Shi Zhang of Huai county will come to visit."


    "Just a moment, please."


    The bookboy answered and quickly went to the yard. When he came to his study, he saw Hu Zhao and reported: "Sir, there are three old people outside the yard. The first one is Shi Zhang."


    "Here it is


    When Hu Zhao heard this, he began to smile disdainfully.


    Before that, he received a letter from Sima Yi about historians, Niu family and Dou family. There are already royal guards lurking in other courtyards to protect him.


    Hu Zhao didn''t pay attention to the historian''s affairs. After all, it''s not a big deal.


    Even if it''s a family, so what?


    When Dou Yuzhang and Dou Yuzhang arrived in person, they didn''t expect to leave.


    Hu Zhao said: "please wait in the hall!"


    "Here it is


    The book boy hears speech, leave the study to inform.


    Hu Zhao sat in his study and continued to read the envelope in his hand. In fact, these letters were sent by Sima Yi. They were borrowed by Sima Yi from Wang Yue. The information about Hanoi county was specially sent to Hu Zhao so that Hu Zhao could get familiar with the situation.


    Hu Zhao never refuses Sima Yi''s kindness.


    If he wants to govern Hanoi, he has a long way to go. He must do his best and not slack off.

 Chapter 424

    In the hall, Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li were seated. When they first entered the hall, they were very high spirited and complacent. After a while, anger gradually appeared on the faces of some of the three people, and even disappeared.


    A quarter of an hour!


    They waited more than a quarter of an hour.


    Originally, they thought that as soon as they entered the hall, they could see Hu Zhao, and then let him give up. But no one thought that Hu Zhao has not appeared up to now.


    They''re completely hanging out here.


    No matter Shi Zhang, Dou Yu, or Niu Li, they are all people in their 50s and 60s. They are from a big family and have noble status. They are praised everywhere they go.


    This time, it was hanging.


    Every heart is very uncomfortable.


    "Somebody


    Shi Zhang couldn''t wait and gave a big drink.


    After Shi Zhang''s words fell, the former bookboy came in and bowed himself and said, "what''s your order, father-in-law?"


    Shi Zhang scolded: "where''s Hu Zhao? Where are the people! I''ve been waiting in the hall for a long time, but I haven''t seen anyone. It''s ridiculous. He is so rude that he is not a famous man


    Although he was low in status, he had a lot of insight. He said humbly, "so that my father-in-law can know. Sir, with the respect of General Zhang, he will be appointed as the prefect of Hanoi county. Now, my husband is busy preparing things. If I can''t wait, I''ll leave the book here. I''ll let you know as soon as I have something


    In a word, Shi Zhang was forced to go back.


    Shi Zhang''s face changed slightly. Unexpectedly, a little schoolboy was so bold.


    In the historian''s family, if the bookboy dared to talk like this, Shi Zhang would let people drag him down and beat him to death. But now I want to see Hu Zhao, but I still ask Hu Zhao. Even if I am angry, I can restrain my anger.


    Shi Zhang snorted and scolded: "go to inform Hu Zhao again. If he doesn''t come, he will bear the consequences."


    "Oh, what a great style!"


    A clear voice came from outside the hall.


    Before a man comes, a voice comes first.


    A tall figure strides forward.


    Dressed in a blue robe, Hu Zhao strode in with a soft look. Although he didn''t wear Royal dress and jade, he was dignified and elegant.


    After Hu Zhao entered, he waved to the bookboy, who then bowed down. The reason why Hu Zhao came late was to hang Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li, and cut their prestige.


    Hu Zhao''s eyes were fixed. He strode to the throne and sat down. As soon as he shook his robe, he glanced at Shi Zhang and said with a smile, "three elders are polite. I''m busy with business, so I''m sorry for the delay."


    He spoke softly.


    When speaking, it gives people a very sincere feeling, and the firm and serious attitude makes Shi Zhang, Niu Li and Dou Yu unable to pick a thorn.


    Hu Zhao has such a good attitude.


    Shi Zhang snorted and said, "we are here for something important."


    Hu Zhao said: "but it doesn''t hurt to say that!"


    Shi Zhang said: "as for the selection of the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture, I went to see General Zhang Xiu personally with Dou Yu and Niu Li, and got general Zhang Xiu''s consent. You are not fit to be the prefect of Hanoi. Please resign yourself


    He didn''t say Zhang Xiu''s verdict.


    This is to beat Hu Zhao unprepared, causing Zhang Xiu to abandon Hu Zhao. If Hu Zhao asked Zhang Xiu to resign himself and no longer hold the post of Hanoi prefect, this would be an excellent opportunity for Shi Zhang.


    Zhang Xiu can''t say anything more.


    Hu Zhao was not impatient and said, "how can the news I got be different from that of Shi Lao?"


    Shi Zhang''s heart clapped and said, "what''s the difference?"


    Hu Zhao said: "the news I got was that two days later, I had a fair fight with Shi Na outside the prefecture. How can I get here? General Zhang thinks that I''m not fit to be the prefect of Hanoi county. That''s not right! "


    There is a smile on Hu Zhao''s mouth.


    That smile is not a smile, as if mocking Hu Zhao''s despicable.


    Shi Zhang''s face changed when he heard the speech. His mockery seemed to be mocking him. How did Shi Zhang not expect that Hu Zhao had already got the news? Was it Zhang Xiu who told Hu Zhao?


    Yes, it could be!


    Hu Zhao continued: "there is a certain way for the historian to be with general Zhang. Although Hu Zhao is idle, he is not illiterate and does not know people. What I should know, I will know for sure. In this way, we will not be deceived. "


    Shi Zhang''s face turned black.


    Hu Zhao didn''t say a word of dirty words, but the whole sentence came down, it was slapping Shi Zhang''s face, so that Shi Zhang couldn''t hang on.


    Shi Zhang took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said, "Hu Zhao, don''t be shameless. I''ll tell you, now you push off Zhang Xiu''s solicitation by yourself, and everyone will be at peace. "


    "No way!"


    Hu Zhao raised his head and threw it to the ground, saying: "I Hu Zhao, a seven foot man, with my head above my head and feet standing on the ground, how can I be threatened by you Shi Zhang. It''s impossible, "he saidBefore Hu Zhao, it felt like a spring breeze.


    at this moment, the edge will show.


    This is Hu Zhao''s own momentum. When he is a little angry, he has the momentum of not being angry and being powerful. Even Shi Zhang, Niu Li and Dou Yu were stunned.


    No one expected that Hu Zhao would be so strong.


    Shi Zhang said, "do you really want to be the enemy of the three major families, i.e. the historian family, the Niu family and the Dou family?"


    Hu Zhao''s big sleeve flicked and said faintly: "I Hu Zhao, I don''t want to be an enemy or a threat from anyone. The kindness of Mr. Shi is in Hu Zhao''s heart. If there''s nothing wrong, please go back. "


    Seeing that Hu Zhao was so tough, Shi Zhang knew that he could not threaten him.


    Hu Zhao is a tough man.


    Shi Zhang changed his strategy and said again, "Hu Zhao, you have a certain talent and a certain ability. Of course, we do not necessarily have to be hostile. If you and I fight, we will lose both sides. "


    "Between us, we can cooperate."


    "As long as you are willing, I, the historian, the Niu family and the Dou family, can fully support you and let the historians no longer compete with you for the position of prefect."


    Shi Zhang said, "as long as you agree, we can handle the rest."


    "It''s good intentions!"


    Hu Zhao looked disdainful and said, "I, Hu Zhao, use the salary of my Lord. With his support, how can I cooperate with you. I''ll respect you three for being law-abiding. After all, you are elders. If you disobey the law and discipline, I will never leave you a trace. "


    "Good, good, good, good hu Zhao, thought that if he had some talent, his tail would go to heaven."


    Shi Zhang laughed angrily and said, "Hu Zhao, you think you can be overbearing with Zhang Xiu''s support. So, you''re wrong. There are so many things you haven''t seen. When you hit the wall, you''ll be soft on us. "


    Niu Li said, "you will regret it."


    Dou Yu threatened: "Hu Zhao, in Huai County, even in Hanoi county. It''s not Zhang Xiu. Because Zhang Xiu is in Hanoi County, there is a time limit. In the end, he is leaving Hanoi. As the so-called officials of running water, the history, Dou and Niu families of Tieda, if you want to have a foothold in huaixian County, you have to rely on us. Without us, you can''t even carry out a decree. "


    When Hu Zhao heard this, he suddenly laughed.


    Interesting!


    If he wants to carry out the policy of starting a scholar in Hanoi County, he is bound to compete with the aristocratic families. Unexpectedly, before taking office, the people of the aristocratic family have come.


    Interesting!


    It''s really interesting!


    Although Hu Zhao was a hermit and didn''t spend much time in officialdom, he was not bullied.


    He is not afraid to fight with others.


    Hu Zhao stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Hu Zhaoming will remember the words of the three patriarchs. Then we''ll take huaixian County as a chessboard, and see who is superior. I hope you three, take care of yourself and don''t lose without success. "


    "You''ll regret it."


    Shi Zhang is biting his teeth. He is very angry.


    Hu Zhao said: "I like to eat everything, but I don''t like to take regret medicine, I don''t like regret."


    "Let''s go!"


    Shi Zhang stood up and left.


    By this time, Shi Zhang had understood. Previously, Hu Zhao hung them on purpose, obviously aimed at them, but he didn''t know it before.


    The three left one after another. Hu Zhao looked at the back of the three, and his mouth was cold.


    He is not afraid of three people.


    He is not afraid of Shi, Niu and dou.

 Chapter 425

    Shi Zhang, Niu Li and Dou Yu left Yubo pool and returned to the carriage. They were all panting and groaning. Their faces were full of anger.


    They all think Hu Zhao''s action is Hu Zhao''s provocation.


    Hu Zhao is bold and reckless.


    This is absolutely intolerable.


    Shi Zhang looked at Niu Li and Dou Yu and said in a deep voice, "Hu Zhao wants to break his wrist with the three of us. What do you say to do?"


    Niu Li''s eyes were cold, and he said: "in that case, let''s compete with Hu Zhao. I''d like to see how capable Hu Zhao is to make Hanoi county officials listen to him. "


    Dou Yu gritted his teeth and said, "in my opinion, it''s too easy. With our strength, why do we have to deal with Hu Zhao? As soon as Hu Zhao introduced a scholar, he killed him, and it was all over. "


    "Killed Hu Zhao?"


    Shi Zhang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Hu Zhao was recruited by Zhang Xiu."


    "I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will be angry if such a person dies unexpectedly. Although our three big families are not weak, they are invincible when they really fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "Our advantage lies in the intricate power and the mastery of the details."


    "And Zhang Xiu, as you know, is extremely murderous. Of course, all the people he killed were guilty. For us, as long as we don''t violate the law and discipline, Zhang Xiu has nothing to do with us. "


    "If Zhang Xiu knows about the murder, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    After all, Shi Zhang was afraid of Zhang Xiu and said, "the reason why we can break hands with Zhang Xiu now is based on Zhang Xiu''s abiding by the rules. Once we don''t have this principle, Zhang Xiu doesn''t obey the rules, and we are finished. "


    Dou Yu gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu is the master of one side. If he tramples the law wantonly, who will trust him? So I think that Zhang Xiu must abide by the rules. "


    "We don''t need to do it ourselves to deal with Hu Zhao. There are many Rangers in huaixian county. You can find rangers to kill people with a knife. Hu Zhao didn''t die in our hands. Even if Zhang Xiu has doubts and no evidence, what can she do? "


    "In her anger, Zhang Xiu did not appoint Shi Na as the governor of Hanoi. But without Hu Zhao, it''s easier for us to deal with him by changing him. "


    Dou Yu said, "brother Niu, what do you think?"


    When Niu Li heard this, he thought to himself.


    Niu Li keeps Hu Zhao''s attitude in mind and is dissatisfied with what Hu Zhao has done.


    After thinking, Niu Li looked at Shi Zhang and said, "brother Shi, I agree with Lao Dou. We three big families in Huai County, how ever been so humiliated. Hu Zhao is too rampant. Such people must be killed. "


    "If you don''t kill me, how can you build a power?"


    "Don''t kill, how to frighten the curfew."


    "Besides, I don''t recommend Rangers in order to avoid showing off their feet."


    "Everyone knows that Zhang Xiu has royal guards, which are all over the country. Looking for Ranger, in case Zhang Xiu''s people find out, it''s not good for us. My suggestion is to mobilize the three families of the dead and send out some of them to assassinate them. "


    Niu Li said: "in this way, seamless, can not be found out the problem."


    Shi Zhang frowned. Niu Li said that he wanted to break his wrist with Zhang Xiu.


    This is a confrontation with Zhang Xiu.


    Dou Yu said again: "brother Shi, you are the leader among us. What are you going to do? "


    Shi Zhang rubbed the jade finger of his right thumb and murmured, "you two suggest to assassinate Hu Zhao. But have you really thought about the consequences? "


    "Think about it!"


    Dou Yu and Niu Liqi answer.


    Two people''s hearts are full of the intention of being killed. If you don''t kill Hu Zhao, your inner thoughts will be blocked.


    Shi Zhang said, "if that''s the case, do it."


    He didn''t persuade any more.


    On the one hand, it is to send the dead to find out the whereabouts, even if Zhang Xiu doubts it. On the other hand, when Shi Zhang was ignored by Hu Zhao, he was also angry.


    Dou Yu and Niu Li are relieved.


    The three returned to the city before evening. Dou Yu and Niu Li go home respectively. After dinner, they go to the historian''s house again and meet Shi Zhang in the hall.


    Dou Yu said: "brother Shi, the dead of the Dou family have been sent out. There are two people waiting on the official road outside the city."


    Niu Li said, "the two dead men of the Niu family are also waiting outside the city."


    Shi Zhang nodded and said, "if you all arrange it properly, I''ll give you an order immediately. The two dead men of our historian are the most elite assassins. In order to deal with one Hu Zhao, the three families of you and me have mobilized two dead men. They look up to Hu Zhao very much. "


    "So it is


    Dou Yu and Niu Li''s old faces are full of smiles.


    Dou Yu said: "now, that''s the news. Brother Shi, prepare a pot of good wine, and let the singer of your family cheer up. "


    "Good!"


    Shi Zhang arranged it immediately.


    Not long after, the wine was delivered and the singer began to dance.In the hall, the sound of silk and bamboo is pleasant.


    At this time, in the barracks, Wang Yue got the news that Shi Zhang and others went to see Hu Zhao. He came to Zhang Xiu''s camp and reported: "Lord, just received the news from the royal guards, Shi Zhang, Niu Li and Dou Yu went to Yubo pool."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what are you going to do?"


    Wang Yue said: "they wanted Hu Zhao to give up his position as a prefect, but Hu Zhao refused. Shi Zhang left angrily and went back to the city. Just got the latest news, Dou Yu and Niu Li both went to Hu Zhao''s house. "


    Zhang Xiu raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth and said, "it''s interesting when things get this far. Has the guard of the royal guards arranged for Hu Zhao? "


    Wang Yue said, "don''t worry, my Lord. Everything is all right."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "next, it''s going to the theatre. Yubo pool tonight will be very lively. Of course, I hope that the Dou family, the Niu family and the Shi family will not do anything. At least the three families have no bad deeds and can see them. If they really want to do something, it''s time to clean up the aristocratic families in huaixian county. "


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord, although I''m humble, I didn''t find that the three families violated the law and discipline. But the strength of the three families is intertwined. In terms of government, businessmen and land, they are the most powerful in Huaihuai County, even in Hanoi county. They are, to put it bluntly, capable of controlling the development of Hanoi county


    Zhang xiudao said: "this is what Hu Zhao wants to deal with. As long as the three families do not really violate the law and discipline, there is no need to deal with them for the time being. Once they hit the bottom line, kill


    Wang Yue said: "I will make a careful inquiry."


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let Wang Yue back.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, although temporarily staying in Hanoi, but in fact, he has begun to think about the next step and Yuan Shao fighting layout. Because the battle report of Hanoi county was sent back to Yecheng, Yuan Shao was bound to be angry when he got the news.


    Under such circumstances, we must make early preparations.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s farsighted plan.

 Chapter 426

    The night was deep and the wind was howling.


    On November night, the stars are hidden, everything is bleak, and heaven and earth are silent.


    Yubo pool is also cold and bleak.


    It was late at night, and Hu Zhao''s study was still on. The oil lamp is swaying, the shadow light in the room is swaying, shaking a little bit. Today, Hu Zhao is still writing hard.


    He will make a series of plans according to Zhang Xiu''s ideas. Besides, the plan of harnessing Hanoi county must be well known.


    Therefore, Hu Zhao is very busy.


    He said that he wanted to arrange things for his family. In fact, there were only a few disciples under his knees, but there was nothing to arrange.


    What we really need to do is to make use of these two days to think about the next step.


    Now, outside the house.


    On the official road, the sound of the horse''s hooves was rapid.


    Six horses approached from far and near, and on their backs were warriors in black. These six people were sent by historians, Dou family and Niu family. They were all dressed in black, with a long sword hanging from their waist, and they looked cold.


    Close to Hu Zhao''s house, six people dismounted, walked and quickly touched it.


    The name of the leader was Shi Qi.


    He is the leader.


    Shi Qi took people close to him, came to the outside of the yard, jumped, and easily turned into the wall. Because the house was not big, and the place where the oil lamp was on at night, it was very likely that Hu Zhao lived. So Shi Qi and others came to the yard easily.


    Six people''s eyes, Qi Qi fell in the study.


    Shi Qi stares at the front study, the corner of his mouth raises a look of disdain.


    For him, killing Hu Zhao is really easy. It doesn''t need such a big battle to kill Hu Zhao. Even in his opinion, even the killers of the Niu family and the Dou family don''t need them.


    He alone can kill Hu Zhao.


    "Up


    Shi Qi waved and gave the order.


    Six people quickly to the study around the past, in their distance from the door of the study, less than a Zhang, suddenly, the silence of the air, a piercing sound.


    "Whew! Whew


    Six crossbows, all of a sudden.


    The speed of the six crossbows was as fast as lightning. In a flash, they reached Shi Qi and others.


    Shi Qi''s face was quiet. He drew his sword and waved it. With a sound of Ding, he cut the blade on the shaft of the arrow and broke away the crossbow. Shi Qi''s sword skill is exquisite, and his body method is fast. He avoids it, but the other five are all hit by arrows.


    Some people were shot in the chest, some in the thigh, with different injuries.


    Red blood, flowing out.


    "Who?"


    Shi Qi drinks low and looks around.


    As his voice fell, six men in black appeared in the courtyard in the dim yellow light. But these six people are obviously thin, their eyes are bright, their breath is astringent, and they blend into the darkness perfectly.


    Shi Qi snorted. Unexpectedly, Hu Zhao was protected by a guard. He looked at the others and asked, "how are you?"


    "No problem!"


    Others, pull out the crossbow quickly.


    For a dead man like them, the injury on his body is nothing to mention as long as it is not fatal and he is still alive.


    "Kill


    Shi Qi gave a low drink.


    He swung the sword in his hand, touched the ground under his feet, and people rushed out quickly to take the royal guards. Just at this time, a sharp sword light appeared. Under the yellow light, the sword light burst out bright light and hit Shi Qi''s sword edge in an instant.


    The man who made the move was Shi a.


    In order to protect Hu Zhao''s safety, Wang Yue specially sent Shi a to lead the team.


    Shia''s swordsmanship is superb. His sword is as fast as lightning. The light of the sword turns, and it seems that there is light on the blade. When Shi Qi''s sword edge was opened, Shi A''s figure moved forward quickly.


    The front of the sword kept on stabbing Shi Qi.


    At this moment, the enemy is like a great enemy.


    Facing Shi A''s attack, Shi Qi was hard to resist. At the beginning, the sword in his hand kept calm without any confusion. But after several successive fights, Shi Qi''s sword moves became chaotic.


    "Ding!"


    The sharp point of the sword stabbed Shi Qi''s blade.


    The swords were staggered. At the next moment, Shi a was wearing flowers around the tree, and his body was behind Shi Qi. He stabbed it straight into Shi Qi''s back. Shi Qi was startled and quickly turned to block.


    Just as he turned around, he saw that Shi a took his sword and hit it with his left hand.


    One punch, as fast as lightning.


    Bang!!


    His fist hit Shi Qi''s temple, which made him dizzy and lost his mind for a moment. In this moment of absence, Shi a moves again, and a palm knife falls on Shi Qi''s neck.


    "Pa!"


    When the dull sound came out, Shi Qi fell to the ground.


    It''s already passed out.Shi a knocked out Shi Qi and didn''t take care of the fighting around him. When he was fighting history seven, the royal guards under his command also made quick moves. They were all fighting with five dead men.


    Shi a squats down, the hand clamps Shi Qi''s chin, unloaded the chin, expertly takes out the poison hidden in the tooth.


    It''s a technique that Shia is familiar with.


    "You would have died if you hadn''t been captured alive."


    With a cold smile in his mouth, Shia looked at the rest of the people around him. Not long after, the rest of them solved five of the dead. However, one of these five people took a quick step and committed suicide by taking poison.


    The other four were all knocked out.


    Looking at the dead man, Shi ah snorted and scolded: "bastard, don''t you want to be captured alive? It killed one. "


    The royal guards immediately pleaded guilty.


    Shia didn''t really blame it. After all, there are still five survivors. After drinking and scolding, he quickly cleaned up the scene and disappeared in the yard. Shi a arranges two royal guards to carry five stunned people back to the city, while Shi a continues to hide beside Hu Zhao to protect Hu Zhao''s safety.


    Although the first wave of assassination has passed, what if there is a second wave?


    In his study, Hu Zhao is still writing hard.


    When he heard that there was no fighting outside, with a faint smile on his lips, he looked up at the study and wrote hard.


    Things outside the window have nothing to do with him. He just needs to focus on his own things.


    In the early morning, Shi Qi and other five people were sent back to the barracks and handed over to Wang Yue. Wang Yue didn''t dare to delay and was put on trial overnight, but he used all kinds of criminal laws, but Shi Qi and others didn''t confess.


    Scorch, flogging, etc. fell on them, as if none of them were affected.


    The anger between Wang Yue''s eyebrows gradually increased.


    I didn''t expect to meet the hard bone.


    Wang Yue didn''t have to guess that these people were the dead of historians, Dou family and Niu family. However, he has to get a confession and let several people admit it, otherwise he can''t guess out of thin air and use it as evidence.


    Wang Yue interrogated again, but he still couldn''t find any useful information. What''s more, he was agitated.


    The criminal law has been used for many times. Shi Qi and others are black and blue, but they all look like they are going to die. In Wang Yue''s eyes, such a situation is a provocation to him.


    He did not expect that this would happen.


    Seeing this, the royal guards worried: "my Lord, now we can''t find the result of our interrogation. What can we do?"


    Wang Yue was very unwilling, but when it came to the affairs of the historians and other three families, he couldn''t delay his time. If you give Wang more time, you will be sure to interrogate him.


    But now, there''s no way.


    Wang Yue took a deep breath and said, "take people with you and follow me to the Lord."


    The royal guards were very surprised and worried: "my Lord, the royal guards can''t deal with it. When it''s handed over to the general, doesn''t it seem that our royal guards are incompetent?"


    Wang Yue said: "it''s the incompetence of the royal guards. However, it''s better to admit your incompetence than to waste your time. It''s not a problem to admit incompetence. It''s a big problem if we delay our time and our Lord''s important affairs. We are the royal guards. Everything is based on the Lord''s interests. Do you understand? "


    The Royal Guard said: "remember the instruction in your humble position."


    Wang Yue nodded and asked people to detain Shi Qi and others. He left the camp and went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu had a rest.


    After all, it''s after midnight.


    After the soldiers reported that Wang Yue entered alone and saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Lord, the assassin who assassinated Hu Zhao has been taken. Six people went to assassinate, five captured and one killed. The five prisoners were very hard mouthed, incompetent and unable to pry out the result. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "who is the leader among these six people?"


    Wang Yue said: "in the letter sent back by Shi a, I found the leader. This man was captured by Shi asheng and temporarily detained in the camp. "


    "Bring the men!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    For Zhang Xiu, there are many ways to bring a person to trial. In today''s era, the interrogator is not a special knowledge, but in later generations, there have been countless means of interrogator.

 Chapter 427

    Wang Yue personally left the camp and went outside to bring Shi Qi in.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on history seven.


    Now, the poison in Shi Qi''s teeth, which had been tied to his hands, had already been taken out. For the time being, Shi Qi couldn''t even commit suicide and became a useless person.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the stubborn Shi Qi in her eyes and said, "you''ve suffered countless criminal laws, and you''re covered with bruises. It''s not easy to stick to it. It''s a tough guy. "


    Shi Qi snorted: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill, kill and cut. If I frown, I''m not a hero. I would rather die than say anything


    "Oh, what a bloody man."


    Zhang Xiu nodded with a smile and said, "my idea is different from that of ordinary people. So the criminal law I use will not be as painful as the iron. But I promise you''ll never forget it. "


    Shi Qi said: "if you have any means, just use it."


    "Interesting


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and said, "come on, I''ll give you a general idea. Next, I will prepare an iron brush. Do you know what an iron brush is? "


    "I don''t know, I don''t want to know!"


    Shi Qi snorted and gave a very tough reply.


    Zhang xiudao said: "the so-called iron brush is to take out a rectangular board the size of palm and nail it with dense steel needles. Fix the needle on the board and brush it over you. Brush over and over again, blood dripping, is not a fatal injury, will only brush off a layer of skin on your body, will be painful, will not immediately die


    When Wang Yue heard this, he raised his eyebrows and raised his spirits to write down Zhang Xiu''s methods.


    This is a new way.


    "Hiss!"


    Shi Qi was shocked when he heard that.


    Is there such an operation?


    Burning red iron on the body, even if the pain, that is a moment of time. The dead are familiar with all kinds of criminal law and know the result of cauterization.


    But this iron brush on people?


    Brush it again and again!


    Can it bear it?


    Shi Qi took a deep breath and gritted his teeth: "even if you threaten me, I''m not afraid. You don''t want me to talk. I can''t tell you. I will not tell you when I die. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "don''t worry. It''s just the first step to brush off your skin with an iron brush."


    Shi Qi''s face drew, and he was afraid.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "next, I will sprinkle salt water on your wound. You should know the pain of the wound soaked in saline. In particular, a large piece of skin on your body all falls off and is soaked in salt water. You know more about the pain. "


    Shi Qi''s face changed again and again.


    Salt water sprinkled on the wound will make the pain of the wound increased countless times, it will be unbearable.


    Shi Qi snorted, summoned up his spirits and said again, "even if it''s your threat, I won''t tell you."


    "Don''t worry!"


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "soaking in salt water is just the second step."


    Gudong!


    Shi Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    He was terrified, but he could only cheer up.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the next step is to smear honey on your wound and throw you out. Honey is sweet and greasy. After the taste is sent out, it won''t be long before countless ants and insects will crawl to eat the honey on your wound. "


    "Oh, I feel pain when I think about it."


    "This is a wound that has been hurt, and it has to be gnawed by ants. I''m looking forward to the pain that spreads little by little, and the taste of it."


    Zhang Xiu said, "do you want to have a try?"


    "Ah


    When Shi Qiyi heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    He was scared to death.


    Even his legs, which are slightly trembling, double combat, there are beans on the face of sweat penetration out. A pair of eyes, showing a look of panic.


    But Zhang Xiu said, "actually, there is a fourth step. Wait until the ants eat the honey from your wound, and then... "


    "I say, I will!"


    Shi Qi completely collapsed and did not dare to insist. He was afraid to hear what happened later.


    Zhang xiudao said, "if that''s the case, tell the truth and make it clear carefully."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Shi Qi answered one after another and said, "I''m a member of the historian family. My name is Shi Qi. I''m a member of the family. I went to yubochi to assassinate Hu Zhao on the order of the family leader. With them were the dead men of Niu''s family and Dou''s family. Two assassins from each of the three families will act together. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you the leader?"


    "Yes


    Shi Qi answered.


    When Zhang Xiu knew the situation, she looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, Shi Qi and others are all detained in the camp. They are not allowed to see anyone."


    "I''ll do itWang Yue shouts to the royal guards and leaves with Shi Qi.


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, now there are three big families. Do you want to take them?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "don''t worry. This is the only thing at the moment, which is not convincing enough. Shi Qi and others failed. At the moment left, they will definitely take action again. If Hu Zhao wants to take over, they will do more. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "with our strength, it''s not difficult to slaughter the historians and other three. However, if we want to convince the people, we must make some efforts. In this way, Hu Zhao can be in power smoothly. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bows his hand and responds.


    Zhang Xiu told Wang Yue to take care of Hu Zhao''s safety and let Wang Yue step down.


    The night was deep, and Zhang Xiu had a rest.


    In the camp, everything is quiet again, but the historian''s house in the south of the city is different.


    In the hall, the lights are bright!


    Singing and dancing, singing and dancing, the music is very lively. Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li all have a blush on their faces and a slightly drunk look.


    I''ve been drunk for such a long time.


    "Cluck, cluck, cluck!"


    All of a sudden, when they were drinking, there was a rooster''s cry. After the sound came, the look on Shi Zhang''s face was suddenly a little strange and more worried.


    He coughed twice and inhaled deeply: "Dou Yu, Niu Li, there''s something wrong with the situation. At this point, Shi Qi and other people''s actions are enough to go back and forth. No matter which family died, they didn''t report back. Is there an accident? "


    "There can be no accident!"


    Niu Li was slightly drunk, but he was still sober. When he heard Shi Zhang''s words, he brushed his sleeve and said, "my Niu family''s dead man is a real master. It''s easy to deal with a Hu Zhao. "


    Niu Li was trembling and continued: "brother Shi, your singer is not bad. Such a woman is rare in my family. "


    There was greed in his eyes.


    Wine and color go hand in hand.


    Niu Li has been drinking wine, and he has come up with more ideas. He wants to find a singer to vent his fire.


    Shi Zhang snorted: "my singer is extraordinary. Don''t talk nonsense. There''s something wrong with the situation now. It''s very likely that the assassin sent is out of order. "


    Niu lijiu came up and said, "in today''s situation, there is no problem. Brother Shi, you are worried too much. "


    Shi Zhang was very angry.


    What is more worry?


    This situation is already burning. If the assassination fails, they are likely to suffer. Shi Zhang didn''t agree with the original dispatch of assassins.


    Only Niu Li and Dou Yu agreed, he agreed.


    Dou Yu pondered and said slowly, "brother Shi, you''re really worried. You''d better send someone out of the city immediately and go to Yubo pool. Now it''s dawn. I''ll be on my way at this time. Once I come back, I''ll find out soon. "


    Niu Li said, "yes, yes, just arrange it."


    Shi Zhang thought about it carefully, and he could only do so. Immediately, Shi Zhang called his housekeeper and ordered him to send someone out to inquire about the news. Although it''s still dark, it''s no problem for historians to leave the city even in the middle of the night.


    After everything was arranged properly, Shi Zhang settled down again, drinking and chatting with Dou Yu and Niu Li. It''s just that there''s something in mind. Drinking is tasteless.


    Even if Niu Li had been signaling that he wanted to be accompanied by a singer, Shi Zhang ignored him.


    Shi Zhang is waiting for information.

 Chapter 428

    Time goes by little.


    The sky is bright, but today there is no sun, and it is even colder.


    Last night''s anthracite has been burnt out.


    Although there was still a trace of warmth in the hall, Shi Zhang frowned. A night did not sleep of him, eyes with blood, eyes are turbid, the whole person is very tired.


    His eyes fell on Dou Yu and Niu Li. After drinking a lot last night, they fell asleep directly in the lobby. Now they are snoring like thunder. The cadence of snoring makes Shi Zhang feel irritable.


    Two idiots!


    In his heart, Shi Zhang swore.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of hasty steps suddenly came from outside the hall.


    After hearing this, Shi Zhang stood up and looked forward to it.


    The news must have come back.


    He hopes for a good result.


    Soon, a samurai entered quickly.


    The samurai was so dusty that his rough cheek was red with cold that he bowed to Shi Zhang and reported: "master, I''m going to Yubo pool to inquire. But when I got to the Yubo pool, I sneaked into Hu Zhao''s house and found nothing. "


    "Inside, there was no sign of fighting."


    "Our people, there is no trace left. Shi Qi and other six people seemed to disappear out of thin air. "


    The samurai said, "the villain was close to Hu Zhao''s yard. He wanted to kill Hu Zhao. But in view of the fact that the situation is not right, we have to report back first. "


    Shi Zhang asked: "people have disappeared?"


    "Yes


    The warrior replied solemnly.


    Shi Zhang thought quickly in his heart. After thinking for a moment, his eyes fell on Niu Li and Dou Yu.


    These two people are still sleeping soundly.


    In his heart, Shi Zhang was angry and told the warrior to take the gong. He took the gong to Dou Yu and Niu Li, and then knocked it hard.


    "Dang! Dang


    The percussion sound of the Gong is constantly ringing.


    The clear and loud voice reverberated in the hall, even more like thunder into the ears of Dou Yu and Niu Li. In a flash, the sound was deafening, and there was a buzz in the brain.


    "Is it thundering?"


    The cold cow can''t help shivering, and then it comes back to me.


    Dou Yu was also startled. He opened his eyes and looked at Shi Zhang, who was beating the gong. He frowned and said, "brother Shi, we stayed up late last night to have a rest. It''s really unfriendly of you to do so. "


    "Friendly?"


    Shi Zhang looked around at Dou Yu and Niu Li and said, "just got the news, all the six people who went to Yubo pool last night disappeared out of thin air, as if they had never appeared."


    "No way!"


    Dou Yu suddenly raised her eyebrows and said, "well, these are six living people, and they are all very powerful."


    Niu Li also said: "these people should not disappear."


    "Nonsense!"


    Shi Zhang snorted and said, "people have disappeared. What else can we say is impossible? Now we have to think about how to solve the problem, not why it disappeared. "


    "Six dead men of our three families disappeared, especially Shi Qi, who is a master of kendo. He disappeared, which shows that the situation is unusual


    "Now, you are still in a dream."


    "How annoying


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice: "in today''s situation, if we don''t consider the solution, I''m afraid that the next moment we will disappear is not the dead, but our three families."


    Dou Yu chuckled and said, "brother Shi, you are serious. Before Dong Zhuo''s rebellion, my Dou family was there; after Dong Zhuo''s rebellion, my Dou family was still there. All over the world, officials are constantly circulating, people are constantly living and dying, but my Dou family is still standing


    Speaking of this, Dou Yu said with pride: "Hu Zhao, you are too alarmist to let my Dou family disappear."


    Niu Li echoed: "brother Shi, I also agree with Lao Dou. Well, if you don''t say much, just say, what are you going to do? It''s no use saying more alarmist things. "


    Dou Yu said, "yes, you can tell us what we''re going to do next."


    Shi Zhang threw the Gong aside and said, "there are two possibilities for what happened last night. The first possibility is that Shi Qi and others went to assassinate Hu Zhao, and the whole army was destroyed; the second possibility is that they encountered something that delayed them. "


    "I prefer the first one."


    "I plan to send another group of people to assassinate. If this wave of people who went to assassinate Hu Zhao still disappeared, or failed, it is bound to be a failure. "


    Shi Zhang said, "of course, it''s the best. No matter you or me, I hope it can be done. "


    "Good!"


    Niu Li said, "I agree!"


    Dou Yu said: "this time, two people are still sent. You and I will arrange it immediately and let them act immediately."


    "Yes!"


    Shi Zhang gave the order immediately.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu also called their respective attendants to convey their orders.The historian, who was sent by Shi Ba, was good at using knives. He was extremely murderous and killed people like hemp. Shi BA was born as a knight errant. After he was desperate, he went to the historian and became a martyr of the historian.


    Shiba was in the historian''s family. He was very popular and had a good time.


    Shi Ba, as a leader, took people out of the city and waited outside the city for the dead of the Niu family and the Dou family. All the people gathered, Shi Ba took the people on the way quickly and went straight to Yubo pool.


    When they arrived at Yubo pool, Hu Zhao was still at home. Hu Zhao has two days to buffer. He should make full use of these two days to sort out his ruling ideas and make himself clear about the way to go.


    When Shi Ba arrived, without hesitation, he sneaked into the yard and went straight to the study.


    But they just entered the yard where the study was, and when they were about to move, Shi a took people out directly. Under Shi A''s sword, Shi BA was captured alive without going through three moves.


    The other five were all captured.


    Shi ah captured everyone alive. However, Shi a didn''t send the people back to the city. They were all tied up. He blocked his mouth and threw them into the house for shelving.


    Then Shi a sent a letter back to the city to report the news that Hu Zhao was assassinated again.


    When Wang Yue received the news, he went to Zhang Xiu''s camp again and reported: "Lord, Hu Zhao was assassinated again this morning. Looking at the current situation, I''m afraid that the three families are getting worse. "


    "No harm!"


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said, "if you want to make her die, you must make her crazy first. In today''s situation, the more anxious the three families are, the better for us. Now, we just have to wait and see. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand to respond.


    Compared with Zhang Xiu''s composure, when the news came back to Shi Zhang''s hands, Shi Zhang was a little panicked when he learned that the whole army had been destroyed.


    Twice in a row, there was no news.


    It''s a total annihilation.


    Under such circumstances, Shi Zhang didn''t have to guess. He knew there was a force around Hu Zhao.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu are silent.


    But after the silence, there was an outburst of emotion. Niu Li clenched his fist and said angrily, "Hu Zhao is really bold and reckless, and he is really against us. If so, compete with him. I''ll see what he can do


    Dou Yu said: "that is, we must kill his spirit."


    Shi Zhang changed his mind and said: "Hu Zhao is not dead, and he is not willing to cooperate, which is a great obstacle to our soldiers. Two days later, does the contest between Shi Na and Hu Zhao still need to be carried out? "


    "It has to be done!"


    Dou Yu said in a voice: "we must let Zhang Xiu see the strength of the three families, otherwise, Zhang Xiu really thinks that we are easy to bully. Let Shi na be well prepared to suppress Hu Zhao. "


    Niu Li nodded: "I agree with Lao Dou."


    Shi Zhang thought that he knew that Shi Na''s wisdom was not as good as Hu Zhao''s. However, with the help of the family, it is not impossible for Shi Na to suppress Hu Zhao.


    He thought quickly and made up his mind quickly.


    After discussing with Niu Li and Dou Yu, Shi Zhang shouts Shi Na, and reminds her to know what to do when she confronts Hu Zhao.

 Chapter 429

    Time goes by, two days are fleeting.


    On this day, Hu Zhao left Yubo pool, said goodbye to the past life of idle clouds and wild cranes, dressed in green clothes and went to Huai county. Although Hu Zhao was on his way in a carriage, Shi a personally protected Hu Zhao to ensure his safety.


    Arriving in huaixian County, Hu Zhao went straight into the barracks.


    After Hu Zhaoyi arrived, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for someone to inform Shi Zhang.


    After a short time, Shi Zhang, Niu Li and Dou Yu took Shi Na to the barracks.


    Shi Zhang''s face was dignified. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed his hand with a smile and said, "General Zhang, Shi Na has arrived. Next, we can have a contest between the two sides. "


    "No hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    Shi Zhang raised his brow and asked, "what''s the reason?"


    He thought in his heart that it was Zhang Xiu who was afraid. If Zhang Xiu is soft and lets Shi na be the prefect of Hanoi County, he can forget what happened in the past.


    After all, harmony makes money.


    Is not forced to have no way back, he is not willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "this battle between Hu Zhao and Shi Na is not in the military camp, but outside the prefect''s residence in the city. This prefect''s mansion is open and can accommodate thousands of people. Let them compete in front of countless people, and let the people have a grand occasion. "


    Brush!


    Shi Zhang''s face changed slightly.


    He recognized the implication of Zhang Xiu.


    It is said that thousands of people can be accommodated outside the prefect''s residence, which means that Zhang Xiu is very likely to inform the people to go. In front of countless people, it is quite difficult for Shi Na.


    When Shi Zhang thought about it, Niu Li took the lead in saying: "no problem, outside the prefect''s house, outside the prefect''s house. We have confidence in Mr. Shi, who is the person we recommend. "


    Dou Yu also said: "that''s the reason. I also agree to compete outside the prefecture."


    Shi Zhang''s cheek puffed.


    He thought in his heart, are these two people sent by Zhang Xiu? Or, in the morning, they were kicked in the head by donkeys and agreed to Zhang Xiu so easily.


    You know, this is proposed by Zhang Xiu, which means that Zhang Xiu is well prepared. And they are in a hurry to fight, which is extremely uneconomic. Even if they had made corresponding arrangements before, Zhang Xiu''s changes would make the plan deviate.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Shi Zhang.


    He knew that Shi Zhang was the leader.


    Zhang Xiu said: "why, is it that Shi Gong has no confidence in Shi na. Shi Na comes from a historian. According to the truth, Shi Gong knows Shi Na best. Even Duke Dou and Duke Niu agreed. Didn''t Duke Shi dare to fight? Well, if so, why recommend Shi na? "


    Shi Zhang was run by Zhang Xiu, so he had nothing to say. He bit his teeth and said, "General Zhang has said that, so let''s do it. The three of us have no opinions. "


    "OK, let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s go to the prefect''s house now."


    After Zhang Xiu gave the order, Shi a nodded around Wang Yue Chao and saw Shi a leave quickly.


    Zhang Xiu, Shi Zhang, Hu Zhao and Shi Na left the camp, while Shi a went to convey the order. When Zhang Xiu and Shi Zhang went to the prefect''s residence, many royal guards appeared in huaixian County, playing gongs and drums, talking about the contest between Shi Na and Hu Zhao, as well as their fight for the post of prefect in Hanoi county.


    The people don''t care who the governor of Hanoi is because it''s too far away from them. But the people also care about the governor of Hanoi, because a good governor will make their exorbitant taxes easier.


    In particular, people like to watch.


    With the propaganda of Yamen officers, countless people began to go to the prefecture.


    On the way of Zhang Xiu and Shi Zhang to the prefect''s residence, at first, there were only these people around them. Gradually, more and more people followed on both sides of the street, and there was curiosity on the faces of people.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised by this.


    This is what he arranged.


    This is to build momentum for Hu Zhao. He believes in Hu Zhao and is more sure that Hu Zhao can win Shi Na. If Hu Zhao can''t suppress him, he will be in vain.


    Shi Zhang''s face changed slightly.


    It''s a trick!


    This is Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    But now, Shi Zhang is driven to the corner and has no way back. Especially when countless people knew the situation, Shi Zhang and Shi Na had no room to retreat.


    What do the people think of the retreat at this time?


    At this time, where is the reputation of historians?


    Shi Zhang took a look at Zhang Xiu and Hu Zhao, and saw that the two people were walking shoulder to shoulder, talking and laughing, with a relaxed look. After looking at Shi Na again, Shi Na behind him followed suit with a dull look.


    In contrast, Shi Zhang was out of breath.


    I''m afraid of comparing goods.


    What comforts Shi Zhang a little is that he has already made arrangements, so he can still feel at ease.The party went to the prefect''s residence. When they arrived at the prefect''s residence, there was a lot of traffic outside the prefect''s residence, and countless people gathered.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    Many people are talking about it.


    When Zhang Xiu and Shi Zhang arrived outside the prefect''s mansion, they saw countless people standing in the open space outside the prefect''s mansion.


    If you look at it, there are at least thousands of people.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Shi Zhang and joked: "Shi Gong, has Shi Na seen so many people? Don''t be too scared to speak in front of so many people


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Alas, I''m surprised that so many people pay attention to such a trivial matter. But it''s also a good thing that people pay attention to it. After all, the eyes of the masses are bright, aren''t they? "


    Shi Zhang snorted and said in a deep voice, "it''s not known who will win or lose."


    "I''m looking forward to it," Zhang said


    Shi Zhang said, "I''m looking forward to it, too!"


    When Zhang Xiu walked to the gate of the prefect''s house, the people spontaneously gave way and let Zhang Xiu and Shi Zhang go forward. Shortly after, Zhang Xiu came to the outside of the prefect''s mansion, climbed the steps of the prefect''s mansion and stood at the gate.


    There are steps at the gate of the prefect''s residence. Just the height of the steps, so that Zhang Xiu and his party can overlook all the people. Since then, when Hu Zhao and Shi Na competed, they stood at the gate of the prefect''s mansion, and countless people outside could see them.


    Zhang Xiu looked at all the people, listening to the voice of one discussion after another, raised his hand to signal the people to be quiet.


    Soon, many people booed.


    The noise faded away.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said, "when the villagers come to the prefecture, they all know that today, Shi Na and Hu Zhao are going to compete for the position of the prefecture magistrate in Hanoi."


    "Shi Na is a historian."


    "Hu Zhao is a hermit."


    "I know that Hu Zhao has great talent, and I''m going to appoint Hu Zhao as the prefect of Hanoi county. It happened that the historians, the Dou family and the Niu family jointly recommended that Shi na be appointed as the prefect of Hanoi county. "


    Zhang Xiu roughly said a reason, and continued: "I''m an official. I don''t appoint people by affinity, but by talent. Now that there is a dispute, I can''t bury the talents. So with the contest between Hu Zhao and Shi Na, they are mules and horses. If you take them out for a walk, you will know. "


    When the people heard this, they thought about it.


    As long as people live in huaixian County, there are no people who do not know the historians, the Dou family and the Niu family. On hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, people naturally have a conflict with Shi Na.


    For all the great families are very harsh, and they are to be harsh on them.


    To Hu Zhao, a little more intimate.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I don''t want to say much. I''ll give it to Hu Zhaohe and Shi Na in the next time. In a contest between the two, a gentleman will talk and not do anything to see who is better. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu retreated to one side.


    The soldiers brought straw stumps. Zhang Xiu lifted her robes and sat down to watch.

 Chapter 430

    Shi Na slowly stepped on the stage, stood in front of Hu Zhao, arched his hand and said, "I''ve heard Mr. Hu''s name for a long time."


    "Long heard?"


    Hu Zhao laughed and said in a deep voice: "I have been idle all the time. I have never heard of the princes or been famous to the common people. I don''t know. How do you know Hu''s name


    "It''s too polite to hear about it for a long time."


    "You and I are competing for the office of the prefect of Hanoi. Of course, it''s competition, but it''s not competition. It depends on who''s ruling strategy is more beneficial to the people and can make them live a good life. "


    "That''s what we''re fighting for."


    Hu Zhao raised his head and asked, "Shi Na, do you think so?"


    At this moment, Hu Zhao is no longer gentle, but sharp and wise.


    "Well said!"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting at once.


    "Well said!"


    One after another, the shouts echoed outside the prefect''s residence.


    Originally, Shi Na wanted to speak, but in the people''s mountain cry, all the voices were suppressed, so Shi Na could not speak, so that Shi Na was silent.


    Shi Zhang looked serious in his eyes.


    What does that mean?


    Somebody''s making trouble.


    Shi Zhang intended to intervene, but the current situation is of no help. Because he can''t affect the situation, he can only be anxious.


    Zhang Xiu has a smile in her mouth.


    He cheered for Hu Zhao.


    As soon as they came up, they won the full house.


    In fact, Hu Zhao''s words are highly targeted. On the one hand, it is aimed at Shi Na to suppress Shi Na''s momentum; on the other hand, it is to win over the people.


    What people care most about is food and clothing. As long as the people can eat enough and wear warm clothes, there will be no trouble. It will be peaceful and even prosperous.


    Hu Zhao hit the nail on the head and won the first full house.


    It took a long time for the people around to be quiet. All the people no longer speak, a pair of eyes, all fell on Shi Na, waiting for Shi Na''s reply.


    At this time, Shi Na was not impatient and said: "if Mr. Hu''s words, there is no problem. To be the governor of Hanoi County, we must compare the ruling strategy. Once Shi Na becomes the prefect of Hanoi County, it will reduce the grain price of Huai County by 10%. That''s my strategy. "


    "Boom!"


    When the people heard this, they began to talk about it.


    A 10% reduction in food prices is a pie in the sky for the people. People''s life is hard, a penny can be broken into two pennies, which is extremely economical.


    Shi Na''s words won the support of the people.


    When Shi Zhang saw the people''s actions, he put a smile on his lips, and things were on the right track.


    This is what he discussed with Dou Yu, Niu Li and others. The first promise is to benefit the people and make them support Shi Na. As for the real price of grain, it can be adjusted again after Shi Na has settled down as the prefect of Hanoi.


    Zhang Xiu''s complexion remains unchanged. In his opinion, Shi Na''s proposal seems to be useful on the surface, but in fact it is full of loopholes. It is a bad move. However, Zhang Xiu did not interfere. This is Hu Zhao''s home court. Let''s see what Hu Zhao says.


    Hu Zhao''s face remained unchanged, still with a faint smile.


    This is Hu Zhao''s confidence.


    He heard the people''s comments one after another and kept silent. At first, the people talked a lot, but gradually, the people looked at Hu Zhao, waiting for Hu Zhao''s answer. But Hu Zhao didn''t speak all the time, and gradually became quiet.


    After a while, the scene was quiet again.


    Hu Zhao bowed his hand to all the people and said in a loud voice: "folks, Shi Na''s political strategy has attracted many people''s attention. After all, food is the most important thing for the people."


    "You should pay attention."


    "Next, I will focus on the ruling strategy of Shi Na."


    Hu Zhao continued: "when it comes to the debate between Xia and Shi Na, we can''t be disturbed. Would you please be quiet for a while


    "Good!"


    In the crowd, there were many people shouting.


    Hu Zhao nodded slightly, his eyes turned and fell on Shi Na again. The deep and wise eyes fell on Shi Na. Inexplicably, Shi Na shivered.


    He was a little weak in the bottom of his heart.


    I don''t know how, but I feel like I''ve lost a little confidence.


    Hu Zhao stood tall and said, "first, you said that once you take office, you will reduce the price of grain by 10%. Then, how can you make the price of grain fall? "


    "The price of grain is mostly in the hands of grain merchants."


    "Food prices, in particular, are also affected by food supply. If there is more grain in the market, the price of grain will be lower. If there is less grain in the market, the price of grain may rise. "


    "To mediate the price of grain, there is not much grain in huaixian''s storehouse. How do you adjust it?"Hu Zhao raised the question.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said in secret.


    It''s Hu Zhao. In a word, it''s to the point.


    The common people are all attentive and holding their breath, one by one, with big eyes and ears, listening carefully. Because the price of food is related to their survival, and they all want to hear it clearly.


    Previously, they applauded for Shi Na''s reduction of food prices, and they were excited. But now, as soon as they hear Hu Zhao''s words, they look at Shi Na again, because they also know that reducing food prices is not a matter of one or two words.


    It''s not a talk. It''s going to be very difficult.


    Shi Na was not impatient. He slowly took out a contract from his sleeve and said in a loud voice, "this is a contract. I''ve been around huaixian grain merchants these two days. I visited them and made a contract. As long as I take charge of Hanoi County, the grain merchants will reduce the grain price by 10%. The contract is the proof, in black and white, which can not be changed. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Hu Zhao heard this, he burst out laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Shi Na raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "what is Mr. Hu laughing at?"


    Hu Zhao said: "there are too many things I laugh at to explain one by one. Now, however, I would like to ask whether these grain merchants'' Unconditional price reduction of 10% is influenced by your sincerity, or what? "


    "If you are really infected by sincerity, why don''t you, me and countless people here, visit the grain merchants in the city and ask them to reduce the price immediately?"


    "If you are polite to others, you must ask for something."


    "Businessmen are willing to reduce the price of grain. Since they have paid money, they must get something and earn back the capital before they agree. Otherwise, why should we do business at a loss? "


    Hu Zhao said: "in this world, as long as it is not a big fool, they are not willing to make a loss. Why don''t you ask the people around you to see who is willing to do business at a loss. "


    WOW!!


    Many people laughed.


    They used to like Shi Na''s words, but now when they listen to Hu Zhao''s words, they know that there will be no pie in the sky.


    Why should grain merchants reduce prices?


    There will always be benefits.


    Fortunately, the laughter didn''t last for a while, but it stopped completely. Shi Na''s cheek twitched, but there was no panic. He said in a loud voice: "in order to let the grain merchants reduce the price by 10%, on the one hand, it was my sincerity; on the other hand, it was my patriarch, Mr. Shi Zhang, who came forward in person. For the sake of the interests of the common people, the old man has been brave enough to achieve such a result. "


    Hu Zhao tut tut two, said: "it''s really touching, you have such an excuse, I can''t bear to hit you again."


    "Can interest be equal to sincerity?"


    "No way!"


    "But you are sincere, and I will not say much. This question has been put on hold for the time being. "


    Hu Zhao continued: "next question, you mentioned a 10% reduction. But the words are missing. Is it a day, a month or a year to reduce the price by 10%? It''s a big difference between reducing prices one day and one year. "


    Brush!


    Snyder''s face changed a lot.


    When it comes to the issue of price reduction, in fact, Shi Zhang has long said that it''s just a day of price reduction. Unexpectedly, Hu Zhao caught the loophole in one sentence.


    At this moment, SNA was flustered.


    How to answer?


    When he was a historian, Shi Zhang didn''t mention it. Shi Na didn''t know what to say for a moment.

 Chapter 431

    Although Shi Na''s face is dull, he also knows that at this time, he must make a response. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he said, "as long as I am the prefect of Hanoi, the price of food will drop for one year. In this year, I will guarantee the stability of food prices. "


    He made a decision.


    In order to get the post of Hanoi prefect, he has given up. Take the position of the prefect first, and then consider the others.


    When Shi Zhang heard Shi Na''s words, his cheek puffed, but he didn''t express any opinions. In fact, he agreed with the price reduction for a month, but Shi Na said something, but Shi Zhang could only admit it.


    When Shi Na becomes the governor, he will consider the countermeasures.


    When people around heard it, they continued to talk about it one by one. No matter what merchants and Shi Na say, it''s good for them that the price of grain will fall for a year.


    Hu Zhao look indifferent, said: "since you said to reduce the price for a year, let''s say it is a year."


    "In order to let all the grain merchants in huaixian County maintain the decline of grain prices within one year, I''m afraid you, Hanoi Prefecture governor, don''t know how much to pay."


    "For the time being, whether it can be carried out or not."


    "None of that."


    "Everything is considered feasible."


    "Then, on this premise, I have another question. When the price of grain falls by 10% across the board, what should people do when they sell the grain they harvest in the market? Is it estimated according to the declining grain price, or how to calculate it? "


    Hu Zhao said: "in recent years, although Hanoi county is often affected by wars, it is still in good weather. Now general Zhang is in charge of Hanoi county. Without the invasion of war, the people will have more surplus food. "


    "Most of the people, all year round, depend on farming for a living, and sell their money by the grain dug out of the land. If you reduce the price of grain across the board, it means that the people earn less money. How can we solve this problem? "


    Hu Zhao made another killing move.


    Still sharp.


    Is still to the point, hard poke in the heart of the history of sodium.


    As Hu Zhao''s words came out, the common people all frowned, and there was no previous joy. In the past, they were happy with the reduction of food prices, but they did not consider selling food.


    What will they do if the price of grain falls?


    It''s not easy to earn money by selling grain. Because the fall of grain prices leads to a sharp drop in income by 10%, they are not willing to. Because the vast majority of the people rely on the hard work of digging in the ground.


    People are talking about it.


    Many people no longer support Shi Na, but support Hu Zhao.


    Snyder''s face changed again and again.


    At this moment, SNA''s scalp was numb. No matter what policies he put forward, he will be punctured by Hu Zhao. Even in front of Hu Zhao, there are loopholes everywhere in his questions.


    Shi Na guldong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "the price of grain has fallen. That''s the price of grain merchants. People sell grain, but the price is set by the people, which has no impact on the people. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Hu Zhao couldn''t help laughing.


    Stupid!


    How stupid!


    Shi Na estimated that he was a bookworm who did not understand the situation of the common people.


    That''s why I said that.


    When Shi Zhang heard Hu Zhao''s words, his cheeks twitched. He bowed his head and didn''t go to see Snyder. How could he be such a fool in the historian''s family? He wanted to put SNA back in his womb.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu couldn''t hang on their faces either. They turned their heads and didn''t interfere.


    Hu Zhao shook his sleeve robe and said in a loud voice: "Shi Na, I don''t know how to comment on your words. In the grain market, suppose you sell your grain for ten Wen a Jin and mine for five Wen a Jin. "


    "Are you willing to pay a high price?"


    "People with a little brain all know that if the price of food is high, they can''t sell it. People will buy the price of food is low. The people''s grain is high and they can''t sell it. If they don''t earn money, life will be hard. "


    Hu Zhao said: "people''s life is hard, huaixian county is unstable. Even Hanoi is unstable. In the face of turbulence, how can you stabilize the situation? "


    "You..."


    When Shi Na heard Hu Zhao''s words, he was asked in silence.


    "Kick! Kick


    Snyder stepped back two steps in a row, looking startled. He stepped back two steps, then stabilized himself and said, "you just said that although the people can''t sell food, they don''t worry about food and clothing at least. They can at least have enough food and clothing. How can there be turbulence? "


    Hu Zhao laughed and said: "you are really smart, but the words come back, which means that you accept my words and believe that a 10% drop in food prices will lead to instability and increase the burden on the people."


    "But no?"


    Hu Zhao raised the question.


    "Yes


    At this time, she had to admit it. However, he was not reconciled, gritting his teeth: "but my starting point is good, I do so to benefit the people."Hu Zhao said: "compassion is common to all people. Being an official is bound to benefit the common people. We all hope that the common people will have a good life. On the one hand, we have a good conscience; on the other hand, we have a face when we have political achievements. "


    "But is it enough just to benefit the people?"


    "Not enough!"


    "A man who has no ability is suddenly in a high position. Even if he wants to benefit the people, every decree will hinder the people and increase their burden. On the contrary, it will do harm to the people."


    "It''s not a match."


    "Of course, it''s wonderful to have a good heart," Hu said. Virtue is also of vital importance. However, the appointment of officials by the government requires not only virtue but also talent. "


    After a pause, Hu Zhao said, "we must have both political integrity and ability to govern the local areas."


    "Well said!"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    The people below have been impressed by Hu Zhao''s ability.


    Hu Zhao was recognized by the people.


    There was no hesitation between Hu Zhao and Shi Na.


    Hu Zhao continued with a high spirit: "now you know that your policy has failed, and you can''t benefit the people. Next, how do you plan to govern? Since you know that you may be the prefect of a county, the guiding principle of your administration must be more than reducing the price of grain. Otherwise, how can you govern the local government? "


    Snyder didn''t say a word.


    For a moment, he was baffled by Hu zhaodiao.


    Shi Na quickly turned his head and said, "in addition, I''m going to dig ditches to give people the chance to earn money."


    "Dig a ditch?"


    Hu Zhao laughed and asked, "well, I''ll ask. Which ditch to open and which to dig, how do you plan to construct? Digging ditches and providing relief for workers are not just words. There are a lot of things to do. In front of all the people, please explain it again. "


    Snyder is shriveled again.


    It was a temporary idea for him to dig ditches.


    Shi Na is not familiar with the topography of Hanoi county. He has no idea of digging ditches.


    He knows nothing about these aspects.


    Seeing this, Hu Zhao sighed again: "when it comes to digging ditches, you don''t understand. Let me talk about it. In fact, this is what I want to elaborate. Since it is mentioned, and you just don''t know how to explain it, let me explain it. "


    "In Hanoi County, there are three rivers. The longest river, Changyu River, is extremely silted. Every time the river rises, a lot of water flows into the Changyu River, and countless people in the lower reaches suffer. "


    "In addition, in Hanoi County, including Huai County, there are 18 ditches that need to be repaired. Of the 18 ditches, the longest is 38 Li, and the shortest is 18 Li, which runs across innumerable places in Hanoi county. "


    "It''s all about water."


    "Dredge all, can let Hanoi county territory, people have water to irrigate crops."


    "This is one of the governing policies I have formulated. If we want to do it, we must be familiar with all the situations, so that we will not be useless," Hu said


    After a pause, Hu Zhao said: "in addition, when I dig ditches, I''m not collecting corvee, I''m recruiting people to work. Every common people has money to earn when they work. If the people earn money and dredge the river, it will benefit the country and the people, so as not to increase the burden of the people. "


    "Pa! Bang


    Suddenly, there was applause in the crowd.


    "Pa! Pop! "Pop!"


    One after another applause echoed outside the prefect''s residence. Countless people applauded, and the applause echoed like thunder. All the people were completely convinced of Hu Zhao.


    Hu Zhao!


    It is worthy of being selected by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 432

    After hearing Hu Zhao''s words, Zhang Xiu can''t help clapping for Hu Zhao. Hu Zhao''s every word is justified and operable, which is Hu Zhao''s ability.


    Governing a big country is like cooking small delicacies.


    It''s easy to run a county.


    Shi Na listened to the applause of the people, looked at the approval of the people''s face, slightly honest face, suddenly raised a ferocious and unwilling look.


    He is not reconciled!


    More unwilling to give up the power that is coming.


    In the family, Shi Na is very humble, but now, it''s not easy to have a chance.


    He didn''t want to miss it.


    As long as Hu Zhao is defeated, he is the prefect of Hanoi County, and he is not willing to give up from the bottom of his heart.


    Shi Na didn''t speak in a hurry and waited quietly. After a long time, when the people''s applause subsided and everyone stopped clapping, Shi Na said, "although my ruling strategy is wrong, how do you plan to govern Hanoi County, Hu Zhao? Your so-called "digging ditches" is only one of them, although it benefits the country and the people. "


    Hu Zhao bent his thumb and stretched out four fingers of his right hand, saying: "the policy of harnessing Hanoi Prefecture is hasty, so I have planned four points."


    "One of the points mentioned just now is digging ditches. I''ve already explained it, so I won''t repeat it. "


    "First, I want to re plan the market."


    "There is a phenomenon in Huai county and even in Hanoi County, that is, the markets are scattered. In such a big city, there are vendors on every street, and there are merchants doing business. "


    "Huaixian City, north of Baihua Lane this area, is government land, covers an area of wide."


    "Originally, it was vacant."


    "If I were in power, I would build a market here and let the merchants do business here. No matter they sell grain, rice and noodles, or vegetables and meat, they have all moved here to form the largest scale. "


    "The vegetables and grain grown by the common people can be sold here. Because there is enough scale, it must be of high quality and low price. The people who buy will come here to make it convenient for the people and give them places to sell and buy. "


    Hu Zhao said, "the most important thing is that the process of building the market needs countless people. When people are recruited to do things, the government will pay them in a unified way. "


    "When the people earn money, their families have spare money, and life is easy."


    "If the model in huaixian is successful, I will extend it to other counties," Hu said


    When the people heard the words, they all nodded their approval.


    For many people, it''s hard for them to go into the city to sell grain, vegetables, or firewood cut from the mountains. It''s not easy for them to walk through the streets.


    It''s good to have a special place.


    The most important thing is that the market is built by the government, and it will give people the opportunity to earn money.


    SNA clenched his fist and said, "even so, is there enough money in Hanoi county? If you keep using money, where can you get it? "


    Hu Zhao smiles and confidently says: "Hanoi county is under the rule of General Zhang. It''s not a separate Hanoi county. It''s not my own Hanoi county. If Hanoi county wants to develop, general Zhang has to give his strong support. He has to seek funding from general Zhang. "


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang xiudao said: "what Hu Zhao does is good for the country and the people. I, Zhang Xiu, am duty bound. It''s money. I''ll pay. I strongly support what should be supported. "


    Zhang Xiu was also surprised by Hu Zhao''s plan.


    It is not easy for Hu Zhao to have such a vision in this era.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, the hearts of the people have the bottom.


    Shi Na at the moment, but would like to give himself a scratch. He forgot that behind him was the support of the three families. Behind Hu Zhao is Zhang Xiu''s support.


    Hu Zhao continued: "if I take charge of Hanoi County, the second thing I need to do is to check the land and then open up wasteland. There have always been many fields that need to be checked if they are not clearly demarcated. "


    "Government land should also be straightened out."


    "In addition, opening mountains and cutting forests can also increase the supply of farmland."


    "Because many people don''t have their own land, they rent it. On the one hand, we have to pay rent, on the other hand, we have to pay taxes. Life is not easy. "


    "If people have land, life will be better."


    "Further reclamation of farmland, further increase the allocation of farmland, so that people have their own land."


    "This is my second step!"


    Hu Zhao''s speed of speaking is not urgent or slow, once again elaborated the strategy of local governance. His words won the house. Countless people chanted Hu Zhao''s name.


    For the people, neither the so-called fairs nor the so-called work for relief can come directly from land.


    Farmland is the lifeblood of the people.


    Where there is land, there is life.


    This is a family inheritance, so Hu Zhao''s words, the scene immediately boiling up. Countless people cheered, extremely excited.When she saw this, she was jealous.


    Why?


    Why Hu Zhao thought so much, but he didn''t prepare for anything.


    Damn Hu Zhao!


    In addition to jealousy, Shi Na has nothing to do with Hu Zhao. In the hearts of the people, after Hu Zhao''s words, there is no need to hesitate, no need to choose.


    The choice between the two sides is already obvious.


    All the people are on Hu Zhao''s side.


    Hu Zhao raised his hand and pressed down to signal the people to be quiet. When the surrounding area was quiet, he finally said, "the third point is to build bridges and pave roads. I''m a hermit, living in seclusion all the year round. "


    "I found a problem that the more remote the place is, the more self-sufficient the people are. Even if there is surplus grain, even if the people have rich goods, it is impossible to sell them. "


    "Not that I don''t want to, but that I can''t!"


    "Because there is no road."


    "If you want to go to the county, or to the nearby market, you have to go over the mountains and go a long way."


    Hu Zhao''s eyes were sharp, and he said, "so we have to survey all places, build bridges and pave roads. It''s not easy, but the road is long. I''ll go up and down. If I want to be an official, I must do something beneficial to the people. As long as the road is open, it will be convenient for the people to do things or sell things. This is a matter in which the merit lies in the present age and the benefit lies in the future. "


    "I support Hu Zhao!"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    "Support Hu Zhao!"


    "Support Hu Zhao!"


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded. All the people were on Hu Zhao''s side.


    Hu Zhao closed his hands and bowed his hand to thank the people.


    On the contrary, Shi Na stood aside with an embarrassed look and a strong jealousy in his eyes. However, in front of Hu Zhao, he was already eclipsed and had no ability to turn around.


    Shi Na''s heart, as if there are countless ants, a little bit gnawing at the heart, so that he is extremely suffering. He flashed a fierce look in his eyes. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he put his hand on the sword around his waist and roared, "Hu Zhao, the dog thief, I am a liar. I should be killed!"


    Sonorous!


    Clear and crisp sound spreads out, the history Na hand sends a force, already is to draw a sword to come out of sheath.


    There are innumerable resentments in Snyder''s heart, even though he is usually honest; even though he is always kind to others; even though he always keeps aloof from the world.


    But when it comes to his future, SNA can''t help but choose to do it.


    "Whew!"


    The sword breaks through the heart.


    Hu Zhao did not expect that Shi Na would suddenly make a move. In particular, the distance between the two people is so close that they can''t resist in a hurry.

 Chapter 433

    Although Hu Zhao could not resist, or even avoid, he still retreated hastily.


    But they were too close.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the sharp point of the sword has reached Hu Zhao''s chest and is about to pierce Hu Zhao''s heart.


    "Pa!"


    A dull sound came out.


    The big hand of the sampan suddenly flashed out and inserted across the air, seizing the tip of the blade. Under the strong force, the palm grabs the blade, making the blade stop and unable to move forward.


    In a flash, red blood overflowed.


    A drop of blood, from the palm of the hand flowing out, spilled on the ground.


    This hand is Zhang Xiu''s.


    Zhang xiujunyi''s face was cold, without any sign of pain. As if his big hands, not flesh and blood, could not feel pain.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu did not expect that Shi Na was so bold that she dared to assassinate Hu Zhao. In a hurry, Zhang Xiu didn''t even have a chance to make a sword. She could only resist with her palm.


    "Lord!"


    Hu Zhao saw that Zhang Xiu was holding the sword blade in his hand, and he was in a hurry.


    In his heart, he is grateful.


    In order to save him, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to risk her life.


    When Hu Zhaogang exported, Wang Yue had already kept up. His face was full of murderous intention, and he made a sword directly. Wang Yue didn''t carry an Epee with him, but his own sword was light and fast as lightning. When one sword came out, it was straight to Shi Na''s throat.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cut Shi Na''s throat.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, such as spring splashing.


    After she had cut her throat, she released her grip on the hilt and immediately fell back to the ground. But Zhang Xiu also let go, loosened the sword blade.


    It''s just that in his palm, there''s blood dripping.


    With a plop, Wang Yue knelt down in front of Zhang Xiu and said, "if you don''t do a good job in rescuing, you will be punished."


    Hu Zhao also knelt down and said, "I''m in a humble position. How can my lord commit a crime with his body?"


    This is true of the rest of the soldiers.


    No one thought that Snyder would attack suddenly, which was beyond everyone''s expectation.


    Every soldier was worried.


    The common people saw all this in their eyes, but they began to be agitated and excited. Even many people began to scold Shi Na, especially the historians and other big families.


    I can''t afford to lose!


    You lose, you kill.


    Such a person does not deserve to be an official.


    When Shi Zhang saw the scene, his cheek twitched. He is an old man, and he is very accurate in judging people. He thinks that Shi Na is an honest and honest man, and he can''t make radical actions. But now Shi Na pulls out his sword and kills Zhang Xiu.


    When SNA''s dead, he''s dead.


    What a pity!


    But Shi Na made a hole in the historian, because Shi Na was a historian.


    "Idiot, asshole, trash!"


    Shi Zhang''s heart, constantly scolding. However, Shi Zhang had to face the reality. He got up and went to Zhang Xiu, bowed his hand to Zhang Xiu, and said, "Shi Na, you should kill her! It is the responsibility of Shi Na and historians that he injured General Zhang. The historian is willing to take charge of it. "


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t pay any attention to Shi Zhang. She asked the people to get up, and her eyes fell on Hu Zhao, who was still kneeling. She said with a smile, "Kong Ming, why is that so. It''s just a minor injury. It''ll be fine in a few days. "


    Hu Zhao said: "I''m tired of my humble position, and my Lord is injured. If my Lord has any accident, I''ll be responsible for my humble position."


    At this moment, Hu Zhao''s heart was agitated.


    He is both remorseful and grateful for Zhang Xiu''s timely rescue.


    If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu holding the sword blade and resisting with his flesh and blood, he couldn''t have lived. The previous sword was aimed at his heart. As long as Zhang Xiu slows down, he will surely die.


    Life and death, just can see a person''s temperament. At the critical moment of life and death, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to save him, which made Hu Zhao feel grateful and deeply moved.


    A scholar dies for a bosom friend!


    For him, Zhang Xiu is not afraid of life and death. He should repay it with a scholar.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and continued: "get up, my hand is hurt, and I can''t lift you."


    "Yes


    Hu Zhao is not a hypocritical person. He stands up and makes a secret decision in his heart. He must serve Zhang Xiu.


    Wang Yue and others got up and quickly bandaged the wound for Zhang Xiu.


    After a while, it was wrapped up.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu doesn''t feel much pain. As a soldier, it''s common to go through life and death and get injured.


    This injury is not a problem.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s indifference, Shi Zhang once again said, "Shi Na, who died, deserves to die. In view of what Shi Na has done, historians are willing to make compensation. When Shi Na commits a crime, historians will remove him from his ancestral home and expel him from the family tree. In addition, the historian is willing to hand over 100000 Jin of grain and 1000 liang of gold as compensation to General Zhang. ""Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    When Shi Na died, it was very difficult to investigate the responsibility of the historian.


    After all, Snyder only represents the individual.


    It''s impossible to use Shi Na to deal with historians, so Zhang Xiu didn''t chase after them. And in Zhang Xiu''s opinion, Shi Zhang will certainly take action after such a big loss.


    If we don''t kill Shi Zhang this time, the next time he does it, it''s time for liquidation.


    Shi Zhang was relieved and said, "general Xie!"


    After a pause, Shi Zhang continued: "now that Shi Na is killed, Shi Na is defeated by Hu Zhao. As the prefect of Hanoi County, I will not recommend him. Hu Zhao, the prefect of Hanoi County, is competent. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Shi Zhang finished and left.


    Dou Yu and Niu centrifuged and hummed, and left quickly.


    But when they left, many people gathered together began to talk about it. The eyes of the people are bright. The common people see that historians are so overbearing.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the people who are talking about it, with a smile on her face.


    He wants to establish the image of hegemonic historian.


    In fact, Shi Na''s assassination of Hu Zhao was beyond Zhang Xiu''s expectation, but it was beneficial to Zhang Xiu. After this, it is only natural for him to deal with historians, and the people will not say anything.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down to signal the people to be quiet.


    After half a sound, there was silence.


    All the people looked at Zhang Xiu, and a pair of eyes fell on her, waiting for her to speak.


    Zhang Xiu raised her injured right hand and said in a loud voice: "Hu Zhao is a talented person with the ability and ambition to govern Hanoi county. When he is here, I can rest assured, and so can the people of Hanoi. Although my hand is injured, it''s worth it! I don''t regret that I have used one hand to govern Hanoi county. "


    After hearing this, the people were grateful for Zhang Xiu''s bravery.


    Zhang Xiu tossed a voice: "today, I worship Hu Zhao as the prefect of Hanoi County, governing Hanoi county."


    "General Zhang is wise!"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    Long live General Zhang


    Long live General Zhang


    ¡­¡­


    Countless people shout, the voice of the tsunami. In particular, people are standing in all directions, tens of thousands of people gathered here, personally saw the scene at the gate of the prefect''s house, all shocked by Zhang Xiu.


    Shi Zhang is going out, hearing the cry, his heart is dripping blood, more depressed.


    Damn sodium.


    It has to be the case with historians.


    "Oh dear!"


    All of a sudden, Shi Zhang was walking forward when he was stumbling over by someone. He stumbled forward and fell down, directly planting a piece of shit. He fell to the ground and looked around. The people around him were still shouting, and no one paid attention to him.


    When Shi Zhang saw this, he was helpless.


    Because I can''t find anyone.


    "Hum, let''s go!"


    Shi Zhang stood up, rubbed his sour face and left angrily.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu followed closely, and the expression on their faces was also full of anger. In the past, when these craftsmen saw them, they all looked respectful. Now they dare to walk under their legs. They are impatient.


    A group of people left in a hurry, while the people on the scene still cheered.


    The scene is very lively.

 Chapter 434

    When everything was settled, Zhang Xiu and Hu Zhao bid farewell to the common people and went straight into the prefecture. And the countless people outside the prefect''s house also slowly dispersed, and no one left.


    A debate ended with Hu Zhao''s great victory.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Hu Zhao is still worried about Zhang Xiu''s safety, and asks, "how is the Lord injured?"


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand with a smile and said: "the injury on my hand is not serious. It only takes a few days to recover completely. You''ve done a good job today. With the support of the people, it will be easier for you to govern Hanoi county. "


    Hu Zhao looked modest and said, "it all depends on the reputation of the Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "no more nonsense. If there is anything in the prefecture, you can arrange someone to come to the barracks to find me. When you first took office, there were a lot of things to do, and it was busy with you. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Zhaoying went down.


    Zhang Xiu entrusted again, then took a person to leave.


    Although Zhang Xiu left, he left Shi a by Hu Zhao''s side to ensure Hu Zhao''s safety.


    On the other hand, Shi Zhang and others returned to historians.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    The faces of all the people were not pretty, especially Shi Zhang. In this debate with Hu Zhao, the historian not only died, but also compensated for food and money. At that time, Zhang Xiu was injured. If she didn''t give her money and food, she would not give up.


    Therefore, Shi Zhang would cut his flesh for survival.


    When Shi Zhang sat down, his eyes fell on Niu Li''s and Dou Yu''s faces and said, "Hu Zhao has officially taken office as the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture. According to the Convention, Hu Zhao must be a new official, and he will start his administration. What''s your opinion? "


    Niu Li said angrily, "this time, we must teach Hu Zhao a lesson."


    Dou Yu said, "we must teach Hu Zhao a lesson."


    Shi Zhang nodded slightly. Seeing that both of them agreed with each other, he also showed a look of approval and said, "under the current situation, we must do something. I suggest that we mobilize the strength of the three families and the strength of the big families in huaixian county to completely overhead Hu Zhao."


    After a pause, Shi Zhang once again said, "except for that, he ordered his merchants not to sell any more grain. I''d like to see what Hu Zhao can do to solve the current problems. He can''t even carry out his orders. What can he do? "


    Originally, Shi Zhang was not so angry.


    Now I''m completely angry.


    The death of Shi Na and the loss of the historian''s face made Shi Zhang angry.


    Dou Yu''s expression was cold, and he nodded: "it''s normal that grain merchants don''t sell grain. However, we should give appropriate reasons to avoid Zhang Xiu''s trouble. "


    Shi Zhang said, "Dou Xiandi is right!"


    The three quickly discussed, formed a decision and reached a unified opinion.


    At this time, Dou Yu with a smile on his face, said: "say, now there is one thing, I don''t know what you think?"


    "What''s the matter?" Shi Zhang said.


    Dou Yu said: "in the cold winter of previous years, we big door families used charcoal to drive away the cold. Ordinary people''s families are working hard and can''t use charcoal. "


    "But now, it''s different."


    "Throughout Hanoi County, especially in Huai County, there are a large number of coal stones, which are non-toxic and smokeless. This kind of coal has a long burning time, but it''s easy to get warm. "


    Dou Yu said: "the most important thing is that the price is cheap. Do you know about this? "


    "I know!"


    Shi Zhang nodded and said, "I know about this. But everyone knows that coal and stone are sold by people under Zhang Xiu''s command. Even if we know, we can''t help it. "


    Niu Li said, "brother Shi is right."


    Dou Yu said with a smile, "I got a piece of news. Huaixian territory, there are coal and stone. It''s just that the coal and stone in huaixian county are not pure, burning some smoke, but also slightly toxic. But it''s not used much, and it can be used. "


    Shi Zhang raised his eyebrows and said, "what do you mean?"


    Dou Yu said: "our three families, together, chew this piece down. Let''s arrange for people to mine the coal and then sell it. In winter, there are countless people who want to use it. We work under the banner of Zhang Xiu. "


    Niu Li patted his thigh, and his white beard kept shaking. He said excitedly: "wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! It''s an opportunity. Once we''re done, we''ll make a lot of money. "


    Shi Zhang had a thoughtful look in his eyes.


    Shi Zhang has doubts about Dou Yu''s suggestion. He and Hu Zhao confrontation once, a glimpse of the leopard, shows that Zhang Xiu is not simple, must be cautious. However, with money in front of him, Shi Zhang was not willing to give up.


    Dou Yu saw that Shi Zhang didn''t make a statement and said, "brother Shi, how do you think about it?"


    Shi Zhang must be involved in this matter.


    Only when historians are present can things be done.


    Niu Li urged: "brother Shi, this is a golden opportunity. This time, I can only earn one winter. When the cold winter is over, you can''t make it. Just imagine, if the people of Hanoi County buy a kilo of coal and stone, we can make countless profits. What''s more, coal and stone are used every day, consuming countless resources. "Shi Zhang said in a deep voice, "it''s easy to kill people!"


    Dou Yu said: "no matter what you do, as long as you can make money, there is nothing you can''t do. What''s more, when we sell it, we can remind you that we can''t close the windows to avoid poisoning. In this way, we have no responsibility. "


    Niu Li said, "I agree with brother Dou."


    Shi Zhang''s eyes were rolling. Suddenly, he had a plan and said, "I have a way."


    Dou Yu way: "what method?"


    Shi Zhang looked confident and replied: "in fact, it''s very simple. When we mine coal and stone, we also arrange people to buy a large number of coal and stone in Zhang Xiu''s shop to mix the two."


    "That''s a lot safer."


    "According to Dou Xiandi, the smoke of the coal and stone we are mining is not big, and the toxicity is not very strong, so it is not easy to distinguish. In such a case, the two are mixed together and cannot be distinguished. "


    "We have to earn money, but we have to be ready to take all of us out."


    Shi Zhang looked around the three and continued: "even if we do this, we can''t go in person. The three of us still have their own businessmen who specialize in business. In this way, even if something happens, it will not affect us. "


    "That''s right!"


    Dou Yu nodded: "brother Shi deserves to be an old fox. The way to think about it is comprehensive."


    Niu Li said, "it is true."


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice: "since everyone has no objection, it''s settled. It''s only about the division of interests. I think so. Each of the three companies accounts for 30% of the shares, and the remaining 10% is given to the selected shopkeeper as his advantage. After all, you have to take risks, don''t you


    Dou Yu asked: "well, which company is responsible for dispatching the person?"


    Shi Zhang said with a smile: "the historians will not be involved in the remaining 10% interests, nor will they send someone to be the manager. Of the two of you, it depends on which one of you arranges the overall situation. Specific sales, as well as other, historians can arrange people


    Dou Yu took the initiative to say: "Lao Niu, I took the lead in this matter. So what do you think of the manager who is in charge of the whole situation and gives it to my Dou family? "


    "No problem!"


    The cow should go down as soon as it leaves.


    But it''s only 10% interest. If the Niu family doesn''t arrange people to take charge of the whole situation, it won''t involve problems. Even if there is a problem, there is no problem with his family.


    Dou Yu said: "thank you very much


    Shi Zhang stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "now that the matter has been agreed, let''s fix all the details first. All matters should be discussed, so as to avoid subsequent disputes. It''s more appropriate to make a decision first and then not make a mess. "


    Dou Yu said: "elder martial brother is wise!"


    Three people sat together, discussing the mining of coal and stone, one by one with a smile on his face.


    There''s money again.

 Chapter 435

    In December, the weather dropped sharply in the north.


    It''s already snowy.


    The cold wind hunts on the road, and snow falls in the sky. Today''s weather is getting colder and colder. There are few pedestrians on the road, because most of the people are hiding at home to resist the cold.


    Yecheng, Jizhou, outside the city.


    On the official road.


    A thin horse came slowly to the west gate of Yecheng.


    On horseback, there is a man full of wind and frost. He had a hat on his head and a coir raincoat on his body. His body was shivering in the cold wind. Besides, there was snow residue hanging between his eyebrows and eyes.


    This man is Xu you.


    He went from huaixian to Yecheng. In the beginning, everything went well. But the further north, the more difficult the road is. On the one hand, it was getting colder and colder, on the other hand, he was robbed once.


    Thanks to his cleverness, he was able to get out of danger.


    Otherwise, he will die.


    All the way back, he lost no less than 15 Jin. Now the stubble on his lips and under his jaw is in a mess, his whole body is much black, and his cheeks are slightly sunken, which makes him look very hard.


    He suffered too much along the way.


    When he came to the gate of Yecheng, Xu you looked excited.


    Come back!


    He''s back at last!


    This trip can be said to have gone through a lot of hardships. Xu you takes a deep breath, suppresses the inner excited mood, drives the horse to continue on the way, came to the gate of Ye City.


    "Stop!"


    At this time, the soldiers at the gate reached out to stop them and said, "if you want to enter the city, you should pay first."


    It''s not expensive to enter the city, only a penny.


    But today''s Xu you, all his pockets are as heavy, and he doesn''t even have half a cent in his sleeves. Even, he is hungry all day, where to get money.


    But he is Xu you.


    He is in Yecheng, walking horizontally.


    As soon as he saw that the soldiers wanted to ask for money, Xu you summoned up all his strength, swung the whip in his hand, pulled it down hard, and said, "bastard, you dare to ask for money in front of me."


    "Pa!"


    The whip fell and whipped the soldier in the face. On this cold day, a whip fell and the soldiers died. The soldiers immediately called out a group of soldiers and surrounded Xu you.


    With his face unchanged, Xu you held up his head and threatened, "I''m Xu you. I''m an official under the account of general Yuan Shao. Are you going to rebel when you surround me? "


    Brush!


    When a group of soldiers heard this, they all changed color.


    No one thought that it was Xu you who came.


    They have been in Yecheng all the year round. They know that Xu you is Yuan Shao''s most valued counselor and an old friend. But Xu you went to Chang''an and was not captured by Zhang Xiu?


    Why are you back.


    At this time, the captain who was stationed at the gate of the city came and looked at it carefully. Although Xu you has lost a lot of weight, his style and commanding attitude have not changed at all.


    When Xiao Wei saw Xu you, he felt a thump in his heart. Xu you is the local overlord of Ye City. He can''t be provoked. After a good apology, the captain sent Xu you away and ordered the soldiers to continue to stand guard.


    After entering the city, Xu you went straight to the prefecture. He wanted to see Yuan Shao first.


    He wants to complain!


    He even wanted to sue Zhang jaw, let Zhang jaw can''t afford to go.


    Xu you rushed to Yuan Shao''s general''s mansion. Xu you''s stomach is cooing. After all, he hasn''t eaten all day. He is very hungry.


    However, Xu you still forbeared to come to the gate of the general''s mansion and let the soldiers pass on the news.


    Today''s Yuan Shao has a natural and unrestrained life.


    In Yuan Shao''s eyes, Zhang jaw is the main general, Tian Feng is the military commander, and leads the troops to huaixian County, which is sure to win. There is no possibility of trouble, so Yuan Shao is waiting for the news of the front line.


    When Yuan Shao learned that Xu you asked to see him, he was very surprised, because in the news he got, Xu you was Zhang Xiu''s prisoner.


    However, Yuan Shao also met immediately.


    In the hall, Yuan Shao waves away the dancing singer and quietly waits for Xu you. After a while, Xu you strode in. When Xu you took off his hat and coir raincoat, he showed his figure.


    He''s all skin and bones.


    Seeing this, Yuan Shao was stunned.


    Is this Xu you?


    How to become such a picture? How much suffering will it take to become such a picture.


    Yuan Shao and Xu you are good friends. As soon as they see Xu you''s appearance, they are dissatisfied with Xu you. They immediately fly out of the sky and don''t want to pursue Xu you''s capture.


    Yuan Shao looked worried and asked, "Ziyuan, what''s the matter with you?"


    "Plop!"


    Xu you directly knelt on the ground, choked: "Lord!"


    The cry of helplessness and hardship was introduced into Yuan Shao''s ears, which made Yuan Shao more emotional. He stood up and went to Xu you. He held Xu you up in both hands. He looked compassionate and solemnly said, "Ziyuan, what have you experienced all the way. Originally, you are so rich and handsome, but now you are so weak. ""Goo! Coo


    Xu you stood up and growled.


    He looked at Yuan Shao and said bitterly, "Lord, I''m very hungry. Can I have dinner first? Now, it has been two days since I was born. I can only drink water when I am hungry. "


    He exaggerates his starvation. Anyway, he tells lies without money.


    Yuan Shao sighed and immediately ordered the cook to bring the food. Fish in front of Xu you, Xu you end up with a bowl, pick up chopsticks, then a little bit of food.


    He didn''t wolf down at once, but he didn''t eat impatiently because his stomach couldn''t bear it. But even if Xu you is not impatient to eat, the speed is not slow, a bowl of rice, a short time, a full six bowls of rice.


    All the fish dishes in front of Xu you have been eaten.


    At this time, Xu you belched, touched his slightly swollen stomach, and said, "my Lord, I''m full at last. During this period of time, I''ve never been so comfortable, which makes my lord laugh. "


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shao said: "hard work is far away."


    Seeing Xu you like this, Yuan Shao felt deeply. He knew that Xu you had suffered a lot, otherwise he would not have been so thin and ate so much.


    Yuan Shao said, "Ziyuan, wash up first."


    Immediately, Yuan Shao called his servant and took Xu you down to wash.


    After a long time, Xu you washed clean and put on a blue robe. His hair was tied up in a bun and his beard was put in order. He was clean again.


    Xu you is extremely thin, give people a gust of wind, you can blow away the feeling of Xu you.


    When Xu you came back to the hall and saw Yuan Shao, he knelt down again and said, "I''ve been ordered by my Lord to enter Hongnong county and prepare to deal with Zhang Xiu. I didn''t expect that, on the contrary, I put myself in the middle of it and humiliated my Lord. Please punish him. "


    "Get up!"


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "you have suffered a lot, too. Let him go of the past and don''t mention it any more. Oh, you are suffering


    Xu you just stood up.


    At this time, Xu you knew that his mistake was all right, but Xu you didn''t plan to let go of Zhang Yan and said again: "Lord, although he came back from his humble position, Yan Liang couldn''t come back."


    Yuan Shao''s heart suddenly became tense.


    Yan Liang is a general under Yuan Shao, and he is the most valued General of Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said in a deep voice, "what happened to Yan Liang?"


    Xu you replied, "Yan Liang is dead!"


    "Ah


    Yuan Shao exclaimed, "how can it be? How did Yan Liang die?"


    Xu you suddenly choked up and said, "tell my Lord, Yan Liang died miserably. He was first captured by Zhang Xiu, and then Yan Liang led the army to fight with Zhang Xiu, which was also captured by Zhang Xiu. "


    "If we were taken by Zhang Xiu, we would rather die than surrender."


    "From beginning to end, even if we would rather die than surrender, Zhang Xiu did not kill us. After Zhang Jia and Tian Feng led their troops into huaixian County, Hanoi County, and occupied huaixian County, Zhang Xiu led the army outside huaixian county. "


    "Two armies against each other!"


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu pushed Yan Liang out, ordered Zhang to withdraw from Huai County, and released Yan Liang."


    "But Zhang refused."


    "Then Zhang Xiu threatened Zhang jaw, saying that if Zhang jaw did not quit huaixian, he would kill Yan Liang."


    "Zhang still refused."


    When Xu you talked about Yan Liang, his eyes filled with tears. Bean big tears, constantly rolling down, constantly sliding from the cheek, see Yuan Shao is worried.


    It is sad to see and tears to hear.


    Xu you''s tears are acting.


    When Zhang Xiu killed Yan Liang, he watched in the army. Although he was imprisoned, he clearly heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    He wants to take this opportunity to stimulate Yuan Shao''s anger and make Zhang Xiu angry with Zhang Ya and Tian Feng.


    Xu you choked: "Zhang Xiu threatened Zhang jaw twice, but it didn''t work. He told Yan Liang that Zhang Yan didn''t care about Yan Liang''s life or death, and the Lord didn''t care about Yan Liang''s life or death. As long as Yan Liang was obedient, he could not die and could continue to lead the army. But Yan Liang resolutely refused, so that he was killed by Zhang Xiu. "


    Xu you said in a loud voice: "Lord, Yan Liang died miserably! He was loyal to his Lord to the end of his life without any change


    Hiss!


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao took a breath.


    A pair of eyes, all over the fog, heart incomparable pain.

 Chapter 436

    "Yan Liang, my Yan Liang!"


    Yuan Shao''s slender hand clenched into a fist and beat his chest with a sad look. If he were the only one, he might not be so sad. But with Xu you''s instigation and Xu you''s grief, Yuan Shao became like this.


    Xu you blinked, and in turn advised: "please be my Lord!"


    It took yuan SHAOHAO a long time to get back to normal. At this time, Yuan Shao regained his sense, looked at Xu you and asked, "Ziyuan, how did you come back?"


    Here we go!


    On hearing this, Xu you cheered up.


    This is the key.


    Xu you said immediately: "report back to my Lord, after Yan Liang was killed, his humble position was pulled out by Zhang Xiu, and he was threatened just like Yan Liang. Before the battle between the two armies, Zhang Xiu also threatened Zhang jaw, saying that as long as Zhang jaw retreated, he would be released from his humble post. "


    "Unfortunately, Zhang refused."


    "After that, Zhang Xiu threatened Zhang Yan again. If she didn''t withdraw, she would kill her humble position."


    "Zhang still refuses."


    "In his despicable anger, he scolded Zhang Yan. In order to build a huaixian County, Zhang Yan did not care about Yan Liang''s life or death, nor did he care about his humble position. That''s putting the cart before the horse. "


    "It''s stupid."


    "It''s obviously not worth giving up the two confidants of the Lord for the sake of a Huai county. However, Zhang still goes his own way, even Tian Feng. "


    Xu you gritted his teeth and said, "in the end, Zhang Xiu was demoted, but he was refused. When Zhang Xiu thought he was going to die, she let him go


    This is where Xu you lies.


    From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu did not surrender Xu you, and even Xu you, in order to survive, once offered to surrender to Zhang Xiu. Of course, such words are only known to him and Zhang Xiu.


    After all, at that time, it was far away from the city tower. What Xu you said to Zhang Xiu was not heard by Tian Feng, Zhang Ya and others, so even if Xu you lied, he was not afraid of being exposed.


    Yuan Shao surprised: "Zhang Xiu let you go?"


    "Yes


    Xu you replied, "this situation was released in front of Zhang Ya and Tian Feng in front of the two armies."


    Yuan Shao nodded.


    After all, there are countless witnesses, Xu you certainly dare not lie.


    Xu you continued: "Zhang Xiu''s intention was not understood at that time, but on the way back, Zhang Xiu understood. Zhang Xiu let humble back, is to let humble things to tell the Lord, let the Lord decision. Even, we have to take advantage of our humble position to deal with Tian Feng and Zhang Yan. "


    This reason, Xu you said directly.


    There''s nothing to hide.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao said, "Yan Liang was killed and Wen Chou was in the army. Didn''t he say that?"


    When Xu you was in front of the two armies, he saw Wen Chou''s move to kill Cheng. He sighed and said, "report back to my Lord, general Wen is furious."


    "At that time, Yan Liang was pushed out. When his life was in danger, Wen Chou went out of the city to fight with Zhang Xiu. Unfortunately, Wenchou was defeated by Zhang Xiu and had to go back to the city. "


    "In addition, before Zhang Xiu killed Yan Liang, Wen Chou led a few soldiers out of the city to fight."


    "Unfortunately, he was still defeated by Zhang Xiu."


    Xu you, with a mournful look, said: "in the end, Zhang Yan refused Zhang Xiu''s condition, and Yan Liang was killed. Because of the relationship between general Wen Chou and Yan Liang, when Yan Liang was killed, general Wen Chou''s heart must be extremely painful. "


    "Alas..."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao could not help sighing.


    He sighed for Yan Liang!


    He sighed for Xu you!


    Xu you said that the reason for Zhang Xiu''s release was to use Xu you to deal with Zhang Ya and Tian Feng, which Yuan Shao believed. Because Yuan Shao was clear about Xu you''s nature, such a deep hatred, Xu you would not give up.


    This is Yang Mou!


    Yuan Shao knows that Zhang Yan is being calculated, but Yuan Shao''s heart is still angry.


    Too much jaw opening.


    So is Tian Feng.


    When it comes to Yan Liang''s life, what about quitting huaixian?


    Yuan Shao was angry and finally said, "Ziyuan, after you left huaixian, did you go straight north?"


    "Yes


    Xu you nodded his head and said, "after leaving huaixian, he went all the way north. Because he was penniless, he lived all the way and was robbed by thieves. At that time, they had no money and were thrown to the foot of the mountain by thieves and bandits. They almost died. "


    "I''ll be rescued, or I won''t see the Lord."


    "Please be the master of your humble position!"


    "I was caught by Zhang Xiu and lost my Lord''s face. I''m willing to be punished. But Zhang Ya and Tian Feng are totally regardless of the overall situation and the friendship of their colleagues. They deserve to die. "


    Xu you choked up and was extremely angry.


    Yuan Shao nodded, then continued: "Zi Yuan, don''t worry, I will do justice for you."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a soldier quickly entered.The soldier knelt down on one knee and reported: "to the general, Tian Feng led more than 1000 soldiers back to Yecheng. Today, Tian Feng has placed soldiers and is waiting outside the house. "


    "Let him in!"


    When Yuan Shaoyi heard Tian Feng coming back, he was not angry.


    Tian Feng dare to come back.


    No!


    No!


    How can Tian Feng only have more than a thousand soldiers back.


    After Yuan Shao regained his mind, his heart suddenly panicked. He had a dignified look on his angular face. He looked at Xu you and said, "Ziyuan, who was the dominant in the situation of huaixian at that time, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan?"


    Xu you said: "Zhang Xiu has an advantage. After all, there are 50000 or 60000 people in Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Jia is not strong enough."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao frowned.


    It''s over!


    I guess I lost again!


    Not long, Tian Feng entered in a hurry. Today''s Tian Feng is dusty and thin. After he retreated in huaixian County, he lingered for a period of time and quickly went north.


    When Tian Feng saw Xu you, his heart thumped, but he still arched his hand and said, "humble Tian Feng, meet the Lord!"


    Yuan Shao said, "is Zhang jaw defeated?"


    "Yes


    Without hesitation, Tian Feng reported: "in the first battle of huaixian, our army was defeated. During the retreat, general Zhang Yan was captured alive by Zhang Xiu in order to break the queen. The city was in turmoil, and the general Wenchou was killed. "


    About Zhang Jia, Tian Feng not only knew that Zhang Jia was defeated and captured, but also knew that Zhang Jia had surrendered to Zhang Xiu. But after Zhang jaw cut off for him, he gave Tian Feng the chance to withdraw. Tian Fengcai didn''t say Zhang jaw surrendered.


    As for Wen Chou''s death in battle, it was only when he retreated that he heard the news.


    Boom!!


    Yuan Shaoyi heard the news like five thunders.


    Yan Liang is dead!


    Wen Chou is dead!


    I don''t know whether to live or not!


    Yuan Shao''s two tiger generals and one wise general were buried in the battlefield.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao''s body could not help trembling, and his anger rose, saying: "what should have come back, did not come back. I should not have come back, but I have come back. Heaven is unfair


    Brush!


    Tian Feng''s face changed greatly.


    Yuan Shao pointed this at him and said that he should not come back.


    Tian Feng is very clear that Xu you must have confused right and wrong before the current situation. It''s no good to admit Juntian.


    Yuan Shao continued: "you Tian Feng and Zhang Yan would rather stay in Huai County, regardless of the lives of Yan Liang and Xu you. At the end of the day, huaixian lost it. How did huaixian lose it


    Tian Feng didn''t dare to hide it. He immediately talked about the secret road in huaixian County, and also about Zhang Xiu''s use of the secret road to destroy the city wall. He explained the situation of the whole battlefield in detail.


    With all the information finished, Tian Feng pleaded guilty and said: "when I was a military adviser, I didn''t have insight into the opportunities, which led to the army''s defeat. If you are guilty of humble duty, please punish me. "


    "You''re guilty. You''re guilty!"


    Yuan Shao was so angry that he was even more murderous in his eyes.


    As usual, Tian Fenggang committed a crime. Because Tian Feng was talented and intelligent, Yuan Shao put up with it. But now, with Tian Feng''s mistakes, Yuan Shao''s old debts pour into his mind, which makes him even more angry.


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "harm my three generals, Tian Feng, Tian Feng, you should die!"


    Tian Feng said, "I will be punished by my Lord."


    For the first World War in huaixian County, Tian Feng had nothing to quibble about. He knew that when Xu you returned to Yuan Shao first, he must have said something more, but Tian Feng didn''t explain it.


    He is a military strategist and the only remaining general in the army. Who is in charge if he is not in charge?

 Chapter 437

    "Are you in charge?"


    "Well, you are just Tian Feng. Can you bear the responsibility? That''s 30000 soldiers, 30000 lives. It involves the lives of Yan Liang, Wen Chou and Zhang Yan. "


    "These are all my officers!"


    Yuan Shao was extremely angry.


    In his life, when he attacked Dong Zhuo, he was shocked by Dong Zhuo''s army and Lv Bu''s bravery. Rao was so. The Allied forces of the princes under his command forced Dong Zhuo to move his capital and achieved remarkable results.


    Yuan Shao had a good trip to Jizhou as the governor of the Bohai Sea. Now he occupies the four prefectures of Qingyou, Hebei and Hebei, and has the greatest strength in the north. But unexpectedly, he suffered a big loss here in Zhang Xiu.


    Tian Feng was dumb.


    He''s a failure and doesn''t know what to say. Now all he can do is take responsibility.


    Yuan Shao snorted: "come on!"


    When a soldier entered the hall, Yuan Shao said, "inform Jushi, Shenpei, Guotu and Fengji to come and see you."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on Tian Feng again and said, "Tian Feng, you really let me down."


    Tian Feng said: "I am incompetent in my humble position!"


    Yuan Shao scolded: "you are not only incompetent, but also cause the general to lose his troops."


    Xu you echoed: "Lord, the situation at that time, such as withdrawing from Huai County, nothing will happen. If you lose a Huai County, you can get Yan Liang back. In this way, the strength of the army will be enhanced. Why not


    After a pause, Xu you said, "but whether it''s Zhang Yan or Tian Feng, they refuse. Zhang Xi is always changeable. Maybe he is taken by Zhang Xiu and betrays his master and surrenders to Zhang Xiu in the twinkling of an eye. "


    Yuan Shao smoked from the corner of his mouth, but said: "Zhang Yan is still loyal. What''s more, Zhang''s family members all moved to live in Yecheng. "


    At this point, Yuan Shao suddenly called to the person in charge of information, let people to inquire about Zhang jaw''s home.


    Seeing this, Tian Feng still didn''t say much.


    Zhang Yan is kind to him.


    He can''t go down the well at this time. Although he himself is in prison, he can''t tell even if he knows the news of Zhang''s surrender.


    Yuan Shao found that it was Yuan Shao''s business.


    He can''t talk nonsense.


    This is Tian Feng''s bottom line.


    After a short time, Jushi, Fengji, Shenpei and Guotu all came to the hall. Seeing you Feng and Xu Tian, they were surprised and didn''t come back at the same time.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    There was also the sound of hasty footsteps. It came from outside the hall, but it was the soldiers who had gone to inquire about Zhang''s family. He came to Yuan Shao''s side and said in a low voice: "general, Zhang''s family is empty, only a few servants. The rest of them disappeared. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao was furious.


    What does it mean that Zhang''s family members are taken away? It means that Zhang has surrendered to Zhang Xiu.


    To Yuan Shao, this is a great shame.


    Yuan Shao was so angry that he was shocked by the expressions on his faces. No one knows what happened.


    Yuan Shao went back to his seat and immediately talked about huaixian''s defeat and Zhang''s betrayal. When Yuan Shao finished the news that Yan Liang and Wen Chou had been killed and Zhang Ya had surrendered, everyone took a cool breath.


    It''s a big deal.


    When Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed, Yuan Shao was short of two generals.


    Zhang Jia betrayed, and Yuan Shao lost another man.


    This is a great loss.


    The loss of 30000 soldiers was nothing to Yuan Shao. However, for Yuan Shao, the loss of the three generals was already a bone breaking injury.


    This is a great loss.


    Yuan Shaochen said: "let''s not talk about how to fight Zhang Xiu. Next, we should deal with Tian Feng first. Tian Feng was responsible for the defeat. He caused Yan Liang to be killed and Wen Chou to die. Tian Feng''s crime is unforgivable. Ben will decide to put Tian Feng to death. "


    "Not my Lord!"


    I''ll stand up right away.


    Under Yuan Shao''s command, Ju Shi had a strong voice. Yuan Shao''s army was able to be mobilized by himself, and so was his authorization.


    He and Tian Feng are good friends.


    Compared with Tian Feng, he is more tactful and can understand Yuan Shao''s preferences, so he can suit the remedy to the case. This is exactly the case. Yuan Shao often adopts the advice of Ju.


    Yuan shaoshen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "what do you have to say, military strategist?"


    Under Yuan Shao''s command, he regarded Ju as a military adviser.


    Ju Shu, with an unassuming look, replied, "my Lord, Tian Feng is guilty and unforgivable. When I heard such a tragic result, I wanted to kill Tian Feng. "


    Yuan Shao nodded his approval.This is what he likes to do. It has always been extremely fair for him to talk about things on their own.


    Ju continued: "it''s just that the Lord damaged Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and was betrayed by Zhang. It''s a bone breaking thing. At this time, we should kill Tian Feng again. Although Tian Feng should be killed, Tian Feng still has some ability. "


    "The only way to kill Tian Feng is for the relatives to hurt and the enemies to be quick."


    "It''s easy to die."


    "It''s hard to live."


    "Instead of killing Tian Feng, give him a good time. Instead, let Tian Feng bear the tragic lessons of 30000 people, let him perform meritorious deeds, let him suffer from the pain of failure. "


    He said in a deep voice: "so he thought that leaving Tian Feng would enable him to continue to develop his intelligence. He suggested that he should not kill Tian Feng and let him commit crimes. "


    Yuan Shao nodded.


    He has a lot of trust in him.


    Just when Yuan Shao wanted to leave Tian Feng''s life and let Tian Feng continue to stay, Feng Ji stood up.


    Fengji is not used to Tian Feng''s hegemony.


    When Tian Feng was in trouble, he did not give up and said, "Tian Feng lost 30000 troops, which was a great loss. If this is the case, how can the soldiers be convinced that they have not dealt with Tian Feng? "


    "I''m afraid all the officers and men under the Lord''s command will be dissatisfied."


    "It will affect the Lord''s prestige."


    Fengji zhengse said: "the Lord rewards the good and punishes the evil, promotes the meritorious and punishes the guilty. This is the Lord''s prestige. But now, the Lord doesn''t deal with Tian Feng. I''m afraid it will cause the soldiers to refuse. "


    Guo Tu also stood up and said, "my Lord, the analysis of Ju military division is reasonable. You can''t be proud just because you have talent. Tian Feng, who has always been valued by his master, is self righteous. Now, he has caused so much damage to the Lord. If we don''t deal with Tian Feng, how can we convince everyone? "


    The judge frowned.


    He didn''t like the scene and began to attack each other again.


    The judge didn''t speak and watched quietly.


    Jushi said again: "my Lord is wise and powerful. He has his own decision. I''m just making suggestions. I''ll make my own decisions. "


    Xu you''s eyes narrowed and said: "my Lord, Yan Liang and Wen Chou have died miserably on the battlefield. Alas, it''s a pity that they don''t know what their bones are like. "


    Originally, Yuan Shao''s heart was tangled. As soon as he heard Xu you''s words, he immediately became angry and said: "Tian Feng led to the defeat of the army, deprived him of his official position and put him in prison."


    In a word, qualitative.


    When I heard that, I felt sorry, but I was also lucky. Anyway, Tian Feng was just put into prison, not executed, which is good. At least he saved his life.


    Yuan Shao asked people to put Tian Feng in prison, looked at the crowd again, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu killed my general. If you don''t get revenge, you will never give up. I''m going to take Zhang Xiu personally. What do you think? "

 Chapter 438

    "Hoo


    A cold wind blowing into the hall, even if the hall burning charcoal basin, can disperse the cold, but the cold wind blowing to the neck, or people can''t help shivering.


    Ju Shou tightened his tight clothes. When he heard Yuan Shao''s words, he thought about it a little, and then said: "Zhang Xiu is arrogant, arrogant and self righteous. He agrees to attack Zhang Xiu."


    Yuan Shao stroked his beard and was very satisfied.


    It''s in his mind.


    Ju continued: "but I suggest that we should send troops after the spring of next year. Now it''s nearly December. It''s winter and it''s snowing. It''s the coldest time. "


    "The cold weather is not good for marching and fighting. It''s hard for us to travel a long way. Therefore, it is suggested that we prepare for the war from now on and recruit soldiers to prepare for the war after the spring of next year. "


    "In addition, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou lost his will to fight and was defeated by his master."


    Ju said, "my Lord, take this opportunity to send someone to surrender Gongsun Zan. If Gongsun Zan surrendered, the LORD would have completely mastered Youzhou. If Gongsun Zan does not surrender, he will fight Gongsun Zan again and strive to destroy him in one go. "


    As the chief counselor of Yuan Shao, Ju Shi put forward some suggestions.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded his approval. In particular, Ju''s words took into account Yuan Shao''s emotions, which made Yuan Shao feel quite comfortable.


    Yuan Shao did not make a decision immediately.


    He looked at the others and asked, "what do you think?"


    "Zhang Xiu killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou. When the news came out, Jizhou would be shocked. If we don''t fight against Zhang Xiu, the world will despise the Lord, and we must fight against him. He suggested that Zhang Xiu should be attacked after the spring of next year. The time is right, and he can also take into account the war in Youzhou. His humble position agrees. "


    Some suggestions were put forward.


    Xu you is familiar with Zhang Xiu. He knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful. If you give her a few more months, Zhang Xiu will be stronger. Throughout Zhang Xiu''s entry into Guanzhong, it took less than a year, but it swept all the counties, and her strength increased several times.


    Give Zhang Xiu more time, Zhang Xiu will be stronger.


    Therefore, Xu you suggested: "my Lord, I don''t agree with Ju''s proposal."


    Yuan shaodao: "why?"


    There was a sharp look in Xu you''s eyes, and he continued: "I have dealt with Zhang Xiu in my humble position, and I know that Zhang Xiu is difficult to deal with. Zhang Xiu has always been extremely cunning, and the expansion speed of his strength is extremely rapid. "


    "When you think about Zhang Xiu, he has been in Nanyang County for less than two years. Such people are not easy to deal with. "


    "I think that we can''t give Zhang Xiu any more opportunities to develop, we must do it as soon as possible. Give Zhang Xiu another period of time, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will completely control Hongnong and Hanoi. "


    "It will be difficult to attack Zhang Xiu again."


    Xu you said: "although it is difficult to send troops in the cold winter, there are considerable difficulties. But we are fighting in the cold winter, so is Zhang Xiu. To destroy Zhang Xiu as soon as possible, for the Lord, he can control Guanzhong as soon as possible. "


    Yuan Shao nodded his head and thought it was reasonable.


    Throughout the rise of Zhang Xiu trajectory, his growth speed is really very fast. In a short time, it has expanded its sphere of influence to Hanoi County, which should not be underestimated.


    For a time, it was difficult for Yuan Shao to make a decision.


    Guo Tu stood up and said in a deep voice, "Lord, I''m against Xu you''s proposal."


    Yuan Shao stroked his beard and asked, "why?"


    The relationship between Guo Tu and Xu you is not harmonious. He has always hated Xu you. He raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "Xu you keeps saying that Zhang Xiu is so powerful, just like Zhang Xiu. Can he compete with the Lord?"


    Yuan Shao frowned slightly, and he didn''t think Zhang Xiu was stronger.


    Xu you was furious.


    Guo Tu is not the son of a man because he wants to spoil his good deeds.


    Guo Tu continued: "Zhang Xiu''s troops are only fifty or sixty thousand. The lord controls the four states and can easily mobilize tens of thousands of troops. If the Lord really wants to wipe out Zhang Xiu, it will be as easy as a palm. "


    Xu you said, "it''s not so easy."


    Guo Tu snorted and said again, "you Xu you are captured by Zhang Xiu. How can you say that Zhang Xiu is so powerful? In fact, that''s all


    "Zhang Xiu''s strength is not strong. This time, if it wasn''t for Zhang Jia and Tian Fengwei, they would fight against Zhang Xiu. Does Zhang Xiu really dare to fight with our two armies? "


    "He didn''t dare!"


    "The army under Zhang Xiu''s command is only 50000 or 60000. That''s all he has. Our soldiers in the army are all first-class and elite. Even if Zhang Xiu''s army is powerful, we have to fight with him. It''s a one-on-one loss for both sides. "


    Guo Tu said: "we have lost more than 30000 elite soldiers, and Zhang Xiu has lost more than 30000."


    "Can Zhang Xiu afford the loss?"


    "In the end, Zhang Xiu took the overall situation into consideration and did not dare to fight. Because once Zhang Xiu''s strength is weakened, Han in the West will take the opportunity to invade. Even Cao Cao may take the opportunity to attack Zhang Xiu. "Guo Tu said in a deep voice: "so I think that Zhang Xiu is not very powerful. My Lord, I agree with the advice of military adviser Ju. I will not send troops for the time being. I will attack Zhang Xiu after the spring of next year. "


    Xu you clenched his fist and hummed: "Guo Tu, you are making a mess. I, Xu you, have ever raised Zhang Xiu? Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with. She is extremely cunning and difficult to deal with. "


    Guo Tu said: "you Xu you are arrogant and self righteous. Will you put Zhang Xiu in your eyes? You are defeated in Zhang Xiu''s hand, only then flatters Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, how to save your incompetent image? If I were you Xu you, I would never risk myself, and I would not go to Chang''an, the hometown of Zhang Xiu. You, Xu you, are self righteous. "


    The expression on Xu you''s face was full of anger.


    He was full of reluctance.


    But he was captured by Zhang Xiu. It was his painful foot and his stain.


    It can''t be washed.


    When Xu you looked at Guo Tu, he felt cold. Instead of talking nonsense with Guo Tu, he looked at Yuan Shao and solemnly said, "my Lord, I have no selfish heart."


    Guo Tu look solemn, way: "Lord, Xu you is selfish."


    The two began to attack.


    This is exactly where Yuan Shao''s biggest headache is, although Yuan Shao likes the following counselors to check and balance each other. Because mutual checks and balances, will not form a party and engage in private interests, he can mediate in harmony.


    But he was in a dilemma and had a headache.


    Yuan Shao scolded: "enough!"


    Guo Tu and Xu you stopped talking. Their eyes fell on Yuan Shao.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    But here comes your servant.


    With an eager look, the attendant came to Yuan Shao''s side, lowered his voice, and reported: "general, young master Shang is suffering from the cold and is not well."


    When Yuan Shao heard this, his heart suddenly became nervous. He waved his hand and asked the attendant to step down. He said with a straight face: "the attack on Zhang Xiu is not necessary. It''s not too late to attack Zhang Xiu after the spring of next year. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    When Yuan Shao made a decision, there was no need to discuss it again.


    Yuan Shao stood up and went to the backyard without saying hello.


    Jushi and others went out of the hall and called for the attendant to ask. They learned that it was yuan Shang who was infected with the cold. After all, it is well known that yuan shaochong drowned yuan Shang.


    He left the hall, but went to Tian Feng''s cell.


    When he came to the cell, he saw Tian Feng, who was imprisoned, and saw that there was little hay inside, especially Tian Feng''s clothes were thin. He immediately called for the gaoler, who told him to add clothes to Tian Feng, and asked the gaoler to take care of Tian Feng before he let the gaoler leave.


    Jushi sat down cross legged and said in a deep voice, "brother Yuanhao, you are familiar with the art of war. How can you lose so miserably in this battle?"


    "Well, it''s hard to say enough!"


    Tian Feng shook his head with a helpless look.


    Ju said: "Xu you has always been arrogant. In front of his master, he said that Zhang Xiu is extremely difficult. What do you think of Zhang Xiu? "


    "Treacherous, cunning!"


    Tian Feng''s eyes were sharp, and said: "fair and just, Zhang Xiu is treacherous and cunning. But for the people under Zhang Xiu''s command, Zhang Xiu is wise and powerful. Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are even more brave. Even Wen Chou was crushed in front of Zhang Xiu. I''m afraid Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are no less than that of Lu Bu. "


    "Hiss!"


    I couldn''t help taking a breath.


    He believes in Tian Feng''s reputation.


    Tian Feng said that things are likely to be true, Zhang Xiu is really difficult.


    Seeing this, Tian Feng talked about the specific war situation in huaixian county and how Zhang Xiu made use of Yan Liang''s and Xu you''s experience. After finishing the whole war, Tian Feng said with emotion: "this battle was lost to Zhang Xiu, which was inexplicable, but after careful consideration, it was not unjust."


    Ju said with emotion: "Zhang Xiu is so difficult to deal with. But I suggest that the Lord attack Zhang Xiu again after the spring of next year. It seems that he underestimated the threat of Zhang Xiu. "


    Tian Feng said: "we should attack Zhang Xiu immediately."


    With an expression of helplessness, he said: "Mr. Shang just fell ill. Under this premise, even if I go to persuade him, I can''t succeed. Now, it can only be like this. "


    Tian Feng said: "war will start next year. I don''t know if I''m out of prison. But you must be careful about Zhang Xiu. "


    "I will persuade you to release you as soon as possible," he said


    Tian Feng said, "thank you very much


    Ju said: "between you and me, don''t say thank you, take good care of your body, keep useful body."


    Tian Feng nodded solemnly.


    After another word, he turned and left the prison.

 Chapter 439

    As the economic and political center under the rule of Yuan Shaozhi, Yecheng is the most prosperous, full of people and traffic. However, no matter how prosperous the place is, there are always dark and poor places.


    In the west of the city, this is the case.


    Many poor people live in the west of the city. In the west of the city, a remote house, or this can not be called a house, because it is surrounded by a circle of earth walls, and inside it are three ordinary earth houses, which are very simple. Once it rains heavily, it rains heavily outside the house and light rain inside the house.


    In the room, more than ten people gathered here.


    These people, one by one dressed in black Samurai clothes, with rough faces, were all sharp looking people.


    Their palms were covered with cocoons.


    They are all martial arts practitioners.


    These are all Rangers, and they are all royal guards developed by Wang Yue.


    The leader''s name was Miao Yong.


    This man is a local ranger in Yecheng. He has a lot of brains and is very righteous. He is very popular with Rangers. He is quite famous in Yecheng. Today, Miao Yong was recruited by Wang Yue and became the leader of the royal guards in Yecheng. He is responsible for the big and small affairs of the royal guards in Yecheng, and this place is where people gather.


    Because it''s remote, it''s not easy to find.


    Miao Yong looked around the crowd and said, "Zhang''s family sent out Yecheng, and they were rewarded."


    Hoo!!


    One by one, everyone was excited.


    They work for Zhang Xiu. They are no longer Rangers. They can get a certain salary. In addition, there will be rewards for every thing completed, so everyone is quite excited to hear it.


    Miao with a big sleeve, said: "come on, carry the box in!"


    The order was given, and in an instant, someone came in carrying a big box. Miao Yong waved his hand. After the attendant stepped down, Miao Yong opened the box. In an instant, the golden light bloomed from the box.


    In this box, in addition to gold cakes, there are also strings of five baht money.


    Piles of money blinded all the royal guards.


    Miao Yong said: "all the money here will be distributed to you, and then it will be distributed. You all know how many awards each person gives. I won''t say more. But remember, if anyone dares to buckle, after I know, it''s not as simple as pickpocketing and cramping. Do you understand? "


    "I understand!"


    All of them answered.


    Every face is full of smiles, and the reward system has existed for a long time. As leaders, they can take a big head.


    That''s enough!


    Miao did not delay using it, and immediately arranged for people to distribute money.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    When Miao Yong was distributing money, some attendants came to Miao Yong, whispered for a while, and then bowed out.


    Miao squinted with his eyes, which showed a thoughtful look.


    After half a sound, all the money is distributed.


    Miao Yong looked at the satisfied people and said in a deep voice: "just now, I got a piece of news. Tian Feng returned to Yecheng and was jailed by Yuan Shao. "


    They all looked at Miao Yong and didn''t understand his meaning for a moment.


    Miao Yong continued: "when I became the royal guards, I was ordered by General Wang Yue. He said that general Zhang liked talents most, and they were the people of courteous and virtuous corporal. In addition, General Wang also asked me to inquire about talents in many ways so that general Zhang could recruit talents. "


    "Tian Feng is a famous scholar."


    "He is the most important person under Yuan Shao. In ordinary times, Yuan Shao''s counselors were protected by people around him. But now that Tian Feng has been convicted, there is no one to protect him. "


    "This is an opportunity to start with Tian Feng."


    With sharp eyes, Miao continued: "if we want to get more achievements and more awards, we must make more contributions. But we can''t just wait for the orders. "


    "If that''s the case, I won''t make much money in my life."


    "So, I''m going to fight Tian Feng."


    Miao Yong''s eyes flashed a light, and his face looked hopeful. He is the Royal Guard in charge of Ye City intelligence under Wang Yue''s command, but Miao Yong is not satisfied with this.


    He wants to move up!


    He wants to make a contribution!


    So when Miao Yong got the news that Tian Feng was put into prison, his mind became active. As soon as the following people heard this, they said, "the sign means to kill Tian Feng and get rid of an enemy for general Zhang?"


    As soon as the words came out, everyone echoed them.


    "Bullshit!"


    When Miao Yong heard this, he immediately gave a low drink.


    Everyone was puzzled.


    Looking at Miao Yong one by one, they were confused. Because I don''t know what Miao Yong plans to do when he mentions Tian Feng.


    Miao Yong saw that all of them were pig brains. He shook his head and sighed and said, "Lao Tzu has said that general Zhang is a good corporal and needs talents. What''s the reward for killing Tian Feng? To make a contribution, it is natural to save Tian Feng and send him to General Zhang. This is the greatest merit. It''s more beneficial than taking Zhang''s family. ""Hiss!"


    Down in the middle, someone took a breath.


    Su Hong, a subordinate of Miao Yong, said, "Miao tou, Tian Feng is in the cell. We have to take people out of the cell and send them out of the city."


    "It''s not easy!"


    "Besides, we have to take Tian Feng''s family away, otherwise it''s useless. It''s not easy to take Tian Feng''s family away. "


    "It''s hard!"


    Su Hong said: "this is like pulling teeth out of a tiger''s mouth."


    Miao snorted: "if it''s not difficult, what''s the advantage? If you only need to bend down to accomplish everything, do you think you can make a contribution? "


    Su Hong said with a grin: "it''s reasonable. It''s my fault. Those of us who come from rangers are not licking blood on the edge of the knife. Only when General Zhang looks up to it can he give us a way out. I did it


    "Do it, do it!"


    "It''s just rescuing Tian Feng. It''s not a big deal."


    "Done!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the Rangers were excited.


    They have no fear.


    Miao Yong finished listening to everyone''s words, raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet. After a moment, Miao Yong continued: "since they all decided to do it, there is nothing to say. Next, the plan of action. "


    After a pause, Miao said: "we are divided into two groups. One group goes to the Tian family to save people and take Tian Feng''s wife, children and parents away. Another group went to prison to save people. In the prison, I am familiar with the situation. I personally lead the team to the prison. Su Hong, you take people to the Tian family. "


    "No problem!"


    Su Hong didn''t even think about it, so he nodded and agreed.


    Miao Yong also elaborated a series of action plans, such as where to meet, which route to take, and how to send out of the city. It took an hour to discuss various matters.


    After the detailed plan was confirmed, Miao Yong said, "it''s easy to move at night. During the day, we will inquire about the situation of the prison and the Tian family. At night, we will move."


    "Here it is


    All the people responded again.


    Miao Yong waved his hand, and everyone stepped down to get busy. Miao Yong didn''t stay in the house. After he left, he mobilized his contacts and inquired about the prison situation.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it will be dark.


    Ye City under the curtain of night, the square gate has been closed, the streets have been empty, no one to wander.


    Miao Yong, Su Hong and others, take action separately.

 Chapter 440

    The light is dim in the cell at night.


    Tian Feng was lying on the dry and thick wormwood and couldn''t sleep much. He didn''t feel that he was not reconciled when he was sent to prison this time. He and Zhang Ya went to fight in Hanoi county at the expense of his troops. He was the only one who came back. He deserved to be punished.


    After all, I failed.


    Tian Feng was worried about Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shaoduan likes face, and he is limited by rules and has too many restrictions. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu acted without any scruples. She acted like an antelope. She was really powerful.


    Such Yuan Shao, even now powerful, but in front of Zhang Xiu, Tian Feng is still worried.


    It may not be impossible for a snake to swallow an elephant.


    "Yi, how are you now?"


    Tian Feng put his hands on his chest and murmured to himself. He knew that Zhang''s family had disappeared, and he knew more about Zhang''s obedience. It''s just that he doesn''t know how Zhang jaw is.


    Zhang Xi fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands in order to protect him.


    Tian Feng worried about Yuan Shao and Zhang Yan, but he never worried about himself from the beginning to the end.


    He was sent to prison, but nothing happened.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, the sound of hasty footsteps came from the corridor of the county government prison. Ten men in black rushed to Tian Feng''s cell.


    The first is Miao Yong.


    Miao Yong, dressed in black and covered with black cloth, goes straight to Tian Feng''s cell. In the afternoon, he took an excuse to enter the cell and inquired about the location of Tian Feng''s custody, so he could go directly outside Tian Feng''s cell in the evening.


    Miao Yong goes to the door of the cell, and without any hesitation, he swipes a knife and cuts it off.


    "Dang!"


    The blade falls and cuts the iron lock.


    After Miao Yong enters, he comes to Tian Feng and doesn''t talk to Tian Feng either. A palm knife falls down. Before Tian Feng could speak, he was knocked unconscious just by the sound of PA.


    Miao Yong picked up Tian Feng and went out.


    By the time they entered, they had knocked out the jailer who was guarding the cell. Now, carrying Tian Feng away, all the way smoothly.


    Miao Yong inquired carefully about Tian Feng''s situation. Tian Feng is a tough man. He may not be able to take Tian Feng away by gentle means. If Tian Feng doesn''t cooperate, it''s not easy to do, so he carries it away after he faints.


    They left the cell and went straight to the west of the city.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of rapid footsteps, rapid sound.


    The party was on their way.


    When Miao Yong and his party came to the northwest corner of Yecheng, they came to a remote corner. There is no patrol on the city floor here, and there are wooden piles nailed into the city wall, which can be used to climb up.


    On the tower, someone had already answered.


    A hanging basket is put down, and Miao carries Tian Feng in. With a wave of his hand, the people on the tower quickly pull the rope. When Miao Yong ascended the tower, he quickly put the field outside the city.


    Miao Yong didn''t leave the city because there were people outside the city who would take care of Tian Feng.


    Miao Yong is waiting on the upper floor of the city. It''s not long. Su Hong comes with Tian Feng''s family. Tian Feng''s family is treated the same way. They are all beaten unconscious. There are Tian Feng''s father, his wife and two sons who are nearly 20 years old.


    This is Tian Feng''s family.


    Four people were put into the basket, then quickly sent out of the city.


    The royal guards outside the city put Tian Feng and his party into the carriage and drove on quickly. Even on the way, Tian Feng''s eyes were still covered, his backhand was tied, and he couldn''t move.


    In the middle of the night, the jailer in the cell finally woke up. When the jailer found that Tian Feng in the cell had disappeared, he was very anxious and didn''t dare to delay. He quickly reported to the superior.


    The news is reported up one level at a time, and finally reaches the hands of the master.


    Ju Shu was awakened by the news of Tian Feng''s disappearance. On the one hand, he arranged for people to go to Tian Feng''s house to inquire about the situation. On the other hand, he rushed to the general''s residence overnight to see Yuan Shao.


    It''s a matter of great importance to report.


    Jushi asked for a meeting all night. When Yuan Shao got up sleepy, he frowned and said, "military strategist, at night, you still don''t sleep. What happened?"


    Jushou looked solemn and replied, "my Lord, Tian Feng has been robbed."


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    Today, Yuan Shao is very angry at Tian Feng. He is angry at Tian Feng''s incompetence and ruthlessness.


    Unexpectedly, Tian Feng was robbed.


    Yuan shaoman''s sleepiness disappeared in an instant and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Ju Shi shook his head and said: "I don''t know the specific situation. I just received the news from the prison guard. Tonight, the cell was attacked, and all the prison guards were knocked unconscious, and Tian Feng disappeared. "


    After a pause, he said again, "when I came here, I arranged for someone to go to Tian Feng''s house to check the situation."


    "Tian Feng must have escaped."Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "this is what Zhang Xiu sent people to do. Tian Feng surrendered to Zhang Xiu."


    Hearing the twitch of his cheek, Ju Shu disagreed with Yuan Shao. The reason is very simple. If Tian Feng surrendered, he would not return to Yecheng. If Tian Feng surrenders but insists on returning to Yecheng, he will not escape as a traitor.


    After thinking about it, he said: "in terms of humble position, although Zhang Xiu sent someone to take Tian Feng away. However, Tian Feng''s departure may not be voluntary. Zhang Xiu''s people deliberately created the possibility of Tian Feng''s surrender. "


    "No way!"


    Yuan Shao snorted and said, "military adviser, you don''t have to defend Tian Feng. Don''t I know about Tian Feng? Huaixian war, the loss is so huge, how can he face me. This time, Tian Feng must have surrendered to Zhang Xiu. "


    He has the heart to persuade.


    It was only in front of Yuan Shao that he knew that Yuan Shao had formed his own opinion, which was extremely difficult to change. After a short time, some attendants reported to Tian Feng that his wife, children and parents had disappeared.


    Yuan Shao was furious when he heard that. He gritted his teeth and said, "look, look, this is Tian Feng. If he is forced helpless, will his wife, children and parents leave together? This time, Tian Feng must have betrayed me. "


    I sigh in my heart.


    He still believed that Tian Feng would not betray Yuan Shao, even if his family members left.


    However, he couldn''t persuade Yuan Shao.


    Professor Ju sighed: "Lord, if Tian Feng leaves, what he can do now is to send orders to all the checkpoints, block the main roads, and try to intercept people at the border."


    Yuan Shao brightened his eyes and said, "yes, yes, Tian Feng is probably still in the city. Military strategist, you should send orders to the four sides of the city gate to strictly check the people in and out. In addition, you should also send letters to the main roads of Ye County for strict monitoring. In particular, the border areas with Hanoi and Henan must be strictly monitored. "


    "Here it is


    If you give me a hand, I will give you a hand.


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "damn Tian Feng, damn Zhang Xiu. In the coming year, when we attack Zhang Xiu, I must make her regret. After defeating Zhang Xiu, I have to question him why he betrayed in front of Tian Feng. After Tian Feng was subordinated to me, I entrusted him with an important task and attached great importance to him. That''s how he rewarded me. "


    With an embarrassed smile, Yuan Shao really didn''t know how to answer.


    Yuan Shao said: "step back!"


    "Here it is


    He arched his hand and left.


    After leaving the general''s residence, he went to Tian Feng''s residence. Now Tian Feng''s house is empty. Because after Tian Feng''s family members were taken away, many of the attendants scattered.


    There are only a few people left in the mansion.


    After inquiring for a while, Ju Shu learns that someone broke in and forcibly took Tian Feng''s family away. In his heart, he concludes that Tian Feng was abducted.


    But these are meaningless.


    In the case of Yuan Shao''s hatred of Tian Feng, it''s useless to explain, not to mention Xu you''s hatred of Tian Feng.


    "Alas..."


    Jushi sighed: "brother Yuanhao, I hope you will not suffer any more when you come under Zhang Xiu''s command."


    With that, he turned and left.

 Chapter 441

    Huai County, military camp.


    In Zhang Xiu''s camp, the charcoal fire was burning and the heat was diffused. The heat of death rises, dispelling the chill in the camp, making the camp warm as spring. Although it is already December weather, but with anthracite heating, it is much more comfortable.


    Although it was cold, it did not affect Zhang Xiu''s handling of government affairs.


    During this period, Hu Zhao has taken office.


    After Hu Zhao became the prefect of Hanoi, he did not interfere in the affairs of other counties in Hanoi County, but focused on Huai county. Because Hu Zhao is very clear that there are three major families in the country. What kind of decrees he will issue will definitely be violated, and even the decrees can not be conveyed.


    Hu Zhao should control Huai county first.


    Originally, the magistrate of Huai county was a member of the Niu family of the three families.


    The county magistrate, Niu Gang, is in his early 40s.


    When Niu gang was the magistrate of Huai County, he didn''t make a big mistake, but he was lazy and tired, and even stopped dealing with government affairs. When Hu Zhao visited the county government, he found Niugang was not there for the first time, and immediately denounced Niugang.


    For Hu Zhao, Niu gang was ordered by his family.


    We should boycott Hu Zhao.


    He even ignored Hu Zhao''s orders, so Niu Gang immediately defended Hu Zhao''s rebuke, saying that he was not going down to inspect the place. As soon as Niu Gang''s words came out, Hu Zhao severely refuted them.


    Because Hu Zhao mastered Niu Gang''s whereabouts, Niu Gang clearly went to GouLan to drink flower wine, but said he was inspecting the place.


    Hu Zhaoyi calls down, Niu Gang is muddled.


    He was targeted by Hu Zhao.


    Under such circumstances, Hu Zhao directly removed Niu gang from office by thunder. After Niu gang was dismissed, Hu Zhao did not appoint a new magistrate. Instead, he issued an order ordering officials in the county government to expose the guilty people.


    Whoever can make a contribution will be the magistrate of Huai county.


    It''s a very simple plot.


    It is to lure the officials in the county government to take the position of magistrate of huaixian county.


    Although most of the county yamen were from the three major families, there were always people who were not affiliated to the three major families, and there were always people who wanted to climb up. Therefore, after Hu Zhao''s order was issued, he pried open the monolithic huaixian officialdom.


    Cao Leiyan, a Hucao in huaixian County, exposed a number of officials in the county yamen. All the people who were exposed by Lei Yan had solid evidence. After Hu Zhao got the news, he took all the people by thunder.


    The whole huaixian officialdom was cleaned by Hu Zhao.


    Hu Zhao took Lei Yan as the magistrate of Huai County, promoted the county magistrate and county captain again, and quickly controlled Huai county.


    Even if Shi Zhang and others were angry, there was no way.


    Hu Zhao used normal means of struggle. He did not mobilize his forces to directly suppress or eliminate the three families. He dealt with the three families by finding out their crimes.


    Shi Zhang and others are helpless.


    On the one hand, they sent people to assassinate Hu Zhao twice, both of which ended in failure.


    Obviously, assassination doesn''t work.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu led the army to huaixian County, and Shi Zhang and other three people could not mobilize private soldiers to rebel. Because in front of Zhang Xiu''s army, Shi Zhang''s family private soldiers are like ants.


    So in a short time, Hu Zhao took control of Huai county.


    The three families are totally invincible.


    After Hu Zhao took control of huaixian County, the order could be carried out, and then he began the drastic reform. Hu Zhao pushed forward one by one according to the plan he had made early in the morning. After Hu Zhao settled in Huai county and took the initiative, he began to attack other counties.


    He needs to find out first.


    Only when we have a clear understanding of the situation of each county and the details of each county magistrate can we make a move.


    It''s safe.


    Zhang Xiu is very relieved that Hu Zhao governs the place.


    With Hu Zhao in Hanoi, there must be a great rule.


    On this day, when Zhang Xiu was dealing with government affairs, Wang Yue entered in a hurry. Wang Yue''s face, with a dignified and serious look, reported: "Lord, just received the news from the royal guards, there is a poisoning phenomenon in huaixian county."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang Yue said: "it''s coal and stone poisoning!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "how about the casualties?"


    Wang Yue said: "up to now, 32 people have died. In addition, other counties in Hanoi county also suffered from poisoning and death. According to the summary of the news, nearly 100 people have died. More information is still under investigation. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes became sharper than ever before, and said: "the anthracite we use is non-toxic and smokeless, so it is impossible to have problems. During this period of time, I have been using it, and soldiers in the army have also used it, without any signs of poisoning. "


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and said, "I''m also confused. We use anthracite, and there is no sign of poisoning. On the contrary, it is the common people outside that have a situation. "


    After thinking for a moment, Zhang Xiu said, "we have no problem with coal and stone, but there is something wrong. The most likely thing is that there are other coal and stone flowing into huaixian county.""Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside.


    A royal guard quickly entered and handed in the latest information. Wang Yue did not take it apart after he took it, but gave it to Zhang Xiu directly.


    Zhang Xiu tore open the envelope, opened the letter and read it quickly. After reading it, he said in a deep voice: "it''s three big families again!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of cool colors.


    Wang Yue asked: "Lord, does this have anything to do with historians and other big families?"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and replied, "now there are other merchants selling coal and stone in Huai County, even in Hanoi county. Some of the coal and stone sold by these people are purchased from us, and then some toxic coal and stone are mined and mixed, and then sold as inferior. These businessmen are from three families. "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu''s face was full of murders, and said: "I always said that as long as the three families did not violate the law and discipline, I would not kill anyone. This time, they should die! "


    Wang Yue said: "I''m in a humble position to mobilize the people of the royal guards and arrest Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li."


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Wang Yue said, "what is the master going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "you immediately arrange the royal guards to take down all the merchants involved. Hu Zhao''s intelligence can''t be as fast as ours. At this time, the delay may have a certain impact on Hu Zhao. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned and left.


    After Wang Yue left the camp, Zhang Xiu sat alone in the camp and thought about the next step.


    "Somebody


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    A soldier immediately entered and saluted, Zhang Xiu said: "inform Zhang jaw to see me"


    "here!"


    The soldiers have orders. Send them at once.


    Not long after, Zhang jaw into the camp, Baoquan way: "Lord summoned, do not know what is important?"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "dispatch troops to gather and wait for my orders."


    "Here it is


    Open your jaw immediately.


    Little by little, about half an hour later, Wang Yue hurried back and reported: "Lord, all the merchants involved in the case in huaixian county have won."


    "I''ve been promoted to trial. They really bought our coal and stone on the orders of Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li, and then mixed them with inferior coal and stone for sale."


    "So as to make huge profits."


    Wang Yue inquired: "the merchants have taken all of them. What shall we do next?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the next step is to start with the historians, the Dou family and the Niu family. I''ve asked Zhang Yan to mobilize the army. Now, I''ll send an order to Zhang Yan to divide his troops into three groups, surround the three families and win them all. This time, Ben went to the historian himself. "


    "Here it is


    Wang dangyue immediately informed.


    After a short time, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ya led the army out of the camp and went straight to the three families.

 Chapter 442

    Historian, in the hall.


    When the singer dances, her graceful posture looms in the gauze, which makes people warm-blooded.


    Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li all gathered here.


    During this period of time, the three families had a hard time in huaixian, because the three families spent many years in business and managed to spread their influence all over huaixian, making the army and officialdom of huaixian full of people of the three families. However, Hu Zhao wiped out the people of the three families in a short time after he took office.


    No matter in the officialdom or in the army of huaixian County, people from the three major families were pulled out.


    If Zhang Xiu is not in Huai County, Shi Zhang and others can mobilize private soldiers of the family, even soldiers in the army, to threaten Hu Zhao, or even aerial Hu Zhao. But when Zhang Xiu was in huaixian County, they didn''t dare to move at all. They could only watch their own strength eroded.


    This is the most helpless thing.


    Fortunately, their strength is not bad in other counties.


    Otherwise, the situation will be worse.


    Although heavy losses occurred during this period of time, just yesterday, the first batch of coal and stone sold had been paid. All the money came together. Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li shared the profits.


    Three big families, each for profit.


    This is also the reason why the hall is singing and dancing and the atmosphere is cheerful.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The footstep sounded and the housekeeper came in a hurry.


    The housekeeper''s face was slightly alarmed.


    He walked up to Shi Zhang, bowed down, said something quickly, and then stepped back.


    Shi Zhang frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "you just got the news that in huaixian County, more than 30 people died from coal poisoning. In addition, there are also deaths in the counties. "


    Dou Yu stroked his beard with a smile. He didn''t care about it. He said with a smile: "brother Shi, it''s just dozens of people who have died. It''s not worth mentioning. Only 30 people died in Huai county. It''s a piece of cake


    Niu Li said: "even if we die, we are not afraid. The coal and stone we sell to foreign countries are all claimed to be purchased from the shops under Zhang Xiu''s command. People who are poisoned will not think it''s us. They will only think that Zhang Xiu has killed them. "


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice, "it''s easy for you two to think about it, but it can''t be underestimated."


    Dou Yu said: "brother Shi is always worried about the sky. Since brother Shi is worried, what are you going to do?"


    "Plant it for Zhang Xiu!"


    Shi Zhang''s eyes narrowed with a cold look.


    Dou Yu asked: "how to plant?"


    Niu Li said: "Zhang Xiu arranged for Hu Zhao to go to Huai county. Our days are getting worse and worse. This time, there is an opportunity to deal with him, and we can''t miss it. How do you deal with Zhang Xiu? "


    Shi Zhang zhengse said: "the people who arranged for us spread the news outside that there were more than 100 people in Zhang Xiu''s army who died of coal and stone. In addition, there are rumors that the huaixian government has also killed more than ten people because of the coal and stone. "


    "Ah


    Dou Yu stares big eyes, is very surprised, in a twinkling of an eye, is an expression of admiration.


    He understood Shi Zhang''s intention.


    Dou Yu sighed: "it''s worthy of brother Shi. Your method is really exquisite. More than 30 people were killed and injured, but more than 100 people were killed and injured in Zhang Xiu''s army


    After a pause, Dou Yu said with emotion: "as long as the people in Huai County get the news, they will think that this is caused by Zhang Xiu, and it is caused by Zhang Xiu''s coal and stone. In this way, our suspicion is completely cleared. Wonderful! How wonderful! Brother Shi deserves to be an old man. "


    Niu Li echoed: "brother Dou has a point. Brother Shi is worthy of being our leader and resourceful. This time, it is necessary to completely cut off Zhang Xiu''s accumulated prestige. "


    Shi Zhang said, "do you all agree?"


    "Agreed!"


    Dou Yu and Niu Li didn''t even think about it, so they answered directly.


    For them, it''s an opportunity.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, there was a cry from outside the hall.


    But the housekeeper came.


    "Master, it''s not good. It''s not good."


    The housekeeper came in in a hurry, panicked and said: "master, we historians are surrounded by officers and soldiers. Zhang Xiu''s army surrounded the circle outside the mansion. The exit of the whole mansion is blocked. "


    Brush!


    Shi Zhang''s face suddenly became dignified.


    The mansion is surrounded.


    What''s going on?


    Is it the leakage of coal and stone?


    Dou Yu was worried and asked: "in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu''s army suddenly surrounded us. Is it the coal and stone that has leaked out? "


    "No way!"


    Niu Li shook his head and said, "we all get the news, and Zhang Xiu doesn''t know the situation. Under such circumstances, how can he conclude that we made the coal and stone? "


    Shi Zhang''s big sleeve flicked and said in a deep voice, "I can''t manage so much now. I have to resist first." He looked at the housekeeper and said, "gather your private soldiers at once and be ready to resist. Let''s test Zhang Xiu first, and then consider the countermeasures. "Dou Yu said: "brother Shi is right!"


    After a pause, Dou Yu said, "brother Shi, do you think I can go ahead?"


    Niu Li also reflected that now the historian has become a land of right and wrong. If he stays in the historian, is it likely to fall into Zhang Xiu''s hands?


    Both wanted to leave.


    When Shi Zhang heard the speech, he sneered.


    This is to get rid of the relationship.


    Shi Zhang sighed and said, "the housekeeper has said that the house is surrounded by Zhang Xiu''s officers and soldiers. Under such a premise, even if you go through the back door, you can''t leave. Of course, if you want to leave, I won''t stop you. "


    Dou Yu and Niu Lishan smile.


    Neither said much.


    Shi Zhang waves his hands to let all the singers leave and leads Dou Yu and Niu Li out.


    When he arrived at the gate, Shi Zhang didn''t open the gate. Instead, he climbed up the ladder on the wall of the courtyard. Looking out, he saw the soldiers surrounded by the historians and Zhang Xiu in armor.


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice, "General Zhang is leading the army to surround our historian. What is the purpose of this?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "historians exploit coal and stone without authorization, and mix toxic coal and stone with smokeless and non-toxic coal and stone, causing people''s death. Today, Ben will bring you to justice. Shi Zhang, open the door and cooperate with the general. Otherwise, there will be no amnesty


    Shi Zhang said: "General Zhang has wronged the historians. All the historians of our country have always abided by the law and discipline, and have never done anything against the law. You say I''m a historian mining coal and stone. That''s slander. "


    "whether or not to slander, you has the final say."


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "all the businessmen who belong to you in Huaicheng County, whether they are historians, or the Dou family or the Niu family, have been taken down. They have confessed everything and admitted that it was your historian who mined the coal. You open the door immediately to cooperate, otherwise there will be no amnesty! "


    Zhang Xiu gave an ultimatum.


    For historians, Dou and Niu, Zhang Xiu is not prepared to stay.


    Previously, although the three families had sent people to assassinate Hu Zhao, they were all under the control of Zhang Xiu. Moreover, the three big families have a big business. It is not easy to win them.


    Now it''s different.


    On the one hand, Hu Zhao took control of Huai county and eliminated the power of the three families. On the other hand, the matter of coal and stone is too serious to kill people.


    Shi Zhang looked at Dou Yu and Niu Li and said, "what are we going to do now? Is to lay down their arms and surrender, let Zhang Xiu disposal. Or, fight to the death? "

 Chapter 443

    "Fight!"


    Dou Yu''s face was cold and said in a deep voice: "first there was the assassination of Hu Zhao, and then there was the confrontation with Hu Zhao. Now there is no room for reconciliation between us and Zhang Xiu."


    "To give up resistance is to give her life to Zhang Xiu."


    "Anyway, it''s surrounded. We fought to the death, and then broke out to try to leave huaixian. As long as we leave huaixian, there will still be life. "


    Dou Yu gritted his teeth and said, "brother Shi, I suggest you spell it!"


    Niu Li nodded and agreed, gritting his teeth and said, "yes, I also suggest spelling. As soon as we got out of huaixian County, we said that Zhang Xiu was wantonly killing, and that Zhang Xiu intended to deal with us, deliberately planting coal and stone. "


    After hearing this, Shi Zhang nodded.


    Dou Yu and Niu Li agree, so it''s easy. He clenched his fist and said: "before, there was no big problem in Zhang Xiu''s hands, so Zhang Xiu turned a blind eye. But now, we have to fight. It''s the time of life and death. We have no choice but to fight. "


    This is like cheering himself up.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu, Shi Zhang really didn''t have much confidence.


    You know, Zhang Xiu is a general who has been through all kinds of battles. No one can defeat her.


    Shi Zhang took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you treat the people in your territory so cruelly that you are in vain to be the head of a state. You intend to destroy my historian, and I will never give in. "


    "If you want to fight, I will fight."


    "I''m a historian, fighting to the end."


    Shi Zhang said in a deep voice: "my historian would rather be a broken jade than a broken one. Zhang Xiu, if you go against the law, I will never give in to you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "OK, what a perverse act. What you said is really interesting. It opened Ben''s eyes. Kill me, resister, there''s no mercy


    "Kill


    Zhang Yan gave the order immediately.


    With the order, the soldiers attacked quickly. A cloud ladder was set up on the wall of the historian''s courtyard. Some soldiers climbed up the ladder, while others carried the timber to the door of the historian.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    The sound of crashing is ringing.


    One voice after another resounds inside and outside historians.


    When Shi Zhang saw Zhang Xiu attack, he also mobilized his private soldiers to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers. The number of private soldiers hidden in the residence of historians alone is more than 3000.


    Three thousand private soldiers are not a weak force.


    The two sides took the gate as their stronghold and started fighting.


    At this time, Dou Yu didn''t take charge of both sides of the fight. He still had worries in his eyes and said, "brother Shi, the private soldiers in your family are actively resisting. But the gate is closed. How can we break through? "


    Now, we need to break through.


    If you stay in your house all the time, you will be surrounded and annihilated.


    Shi Zhang''s old cheek also showed a worried look, saying: "in today''s situation, whether it is the front door or the back door, there are soldiers attacking. It''s not easy for us to break through. In my opinion, we can only fight for a period of time before we think about breaking through. "


    Dou Yu and Niu Li nodded, but they were more and more anxious.


    They are trapped in the historian, and they don''t know what kind of situation is in their own home.


    Shi Zhang comforted: "in today''s situation, you don''t have to think about going home. Even the historians were attacked, and the Dou and Niu families were bound to be besieged. Our three families were attacked together. "


    Dou Yu and Niu Li''s heart sank.


    "Alas..."


    They sighed together.


    At this moment, Dou Yu and Niu Li''s heart, faintly raised regret.


    Zhang Xiu is not serious, but they think that they have a certain ability to wrestle with Zhang Xiu. In other words, they think that in the case of Zhang Xiu abiding by the rules, they have the strength to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Now, it''s very difficult. If they hadn''t been enemies of Zhang Xiu


    Unfortunately, there is no if!


    "The officers and soldiers are coming in. Stop them, stop them!"


    In the yard, private soldiers yelled.


    With Zhang Xiu''s officers and soldiers killed in the wall, they continue to kill. More and more people entered. In an instant, the defense in the whole courtyard wall was in a mess, and the strength of resistance was weaker.


    In this way, more officers and soldiers will enter.


    Boom!!


    The door of the historian was knocked open.


    Countless soldiers entered and killed the private soldiers who resisted one by one.


    The ghost of the dead soldiers was completely exposed in front of the soldiers, and they became the soldiers of the courtyard.


    One by one, private soldiers were killed.


    It''s an asymmetric fight.


    The private soldiers of historians, after all, are only private soldiers. They have never been to the battlefield, lack strength and combat experience. But the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are different. They have participated in countless battles, experienced in battle, and have strong fighting will.One by one, the soldiers went into the scholar''s house like a tiger into a sheep. They constantly slaughtered the private soldiers of the historian, which completely became one-sided killing.


    Shi Zhang and others were directly confused.


    How is that possible?


    How could Zhang Xiu''s army be so powerful. In front of Zhang Xiu''s army, the private soldiers who historians are proud of have no strength to resist.


    Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li want to escape. Under the protection of private soldiers, they intend to break out. But the private soldiers around him had been killed, and they were in a state of panic and worry.


    It''s not going to be a war.


    "I surrender, don''t kill me!"


    "I''m down!"


    "Don''t kill me, don''t kill me!"


    ¡­¡­


    Among the private soldiers, some surrendered. With the appearance of such people, the number of capitulations increased rapidly. Whenever officers and soldiers passed by, private soldiers surrendered, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and no longer resisted.


    Shi Zhang''s three men were soon exposed to the eyes of the officers and soldiers. Seeing the officers and soldiers coming to kill him, Shi Zhang was so scared that his legs softened that he knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy


    "I surrender!"


    After Dou Yu saw it, he knelt down without hesitation.


    If you can''t run away, you have to surrender.


    It''s the same with niuli.


    After Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li knelt down and surrendered, there were no more resisters in the whole family.


    From the fight to the end, not more than two quarters of an hour.


    The war is over.


    Zhang jaw detains all the private soldiers, sees Shi Zhang and escorts them to Zhang Xiu. At this moment, Shi Zhang''s three men no longer had any arrogance. They were worried that Zhang Xiu would kill them.


    They don''t want to die!


    Shi Zhang took a deep breath and begged for mercy: "General Zhang, my historian is wrong. Historians really participated in the sale of coal and stone, and also mined some inferior coal and stone to mix with them. Shi Zhang is willing to take responsibility for the fact that the historian is guilty and the historian is wrong. General Zhang, please give historians a chance. They are willing to repent. "


    Niu Li also begged for mercy and said, "please raise your hand, general Zhang."


    General Zhang said, "I''m the first one. General Zhang told my Dou family to go east, but my Dou family didn''t dare to go west. My Dou family is willing to submit to General Zhang. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "no need!"


    Brush!


    Shi Zhang''s face changed greatly. I didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to be so determined.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentinel quickly came to Zhang''s side and reported: "general, Dou''s family and Niu''s family have completely won. All the personnel of the two families are in custody, all the mansions are sealed up, and there are soldiers specially in custody. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang jaw waved his hand.


    Zhang was not surprised to win the Dou and Niu families. The soldiers he sent were all elite. If we can''t do this well, the generals in charge don''t have to muddle along.


    Dou Yu and Niu Li were both in tears when they heard the speech. Sure enough, their families were also in trouble.


    It''s over!


    This time it''s over.


    Not long ago, they were drinking and dancing in the hall of historians. But now, everything has become a passing cloud and a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, whose life and death depend on her hand.

 Chapter 444

    Shi Zhang was still unwilling. As the leader of historians, he did not live enough and did not want to die. He said in a loud voice: "General Zhang, historians are the famous family of Huai county."


    "The Dou family and the Niu family are the same."


    "The news of the massacre in tuhuai county is bound to cause unrest."


    "Even the whole Hanoi county will be in turmoil."


    "But if my three families cooperate with each other, they will help you. Then, Hanoi County under general Zhang will be as solid as gold. General Zhang left us, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. "


    Shi Zhang talked bluntly and bewitched: "it''s said that the two evils should be taken lightly, and the two benefits should be taken seriously. It''s more useful to leave us to weigh the pros and cons. General Zhang, why don''t you give us a chance as well as you? "


    Zhang Xiu said again: "no need!"


    Brush!


    Shi Zhang''s face changed again.


    Zhang Xiu cold eyes, said: "you know, this general''s army, also Jizhao Shi seven and others?"


    Shi Zhang''s face changed again and again.


    Shi Qi, a dead historian, once led people to yubochi to assassinate Hu Zhao.


    In the end, Shi Qi disappeared.


    Shi Zhang did not expect that after a period of time, Shi Qi was still alive and was still in Zhang Xiu''s custody. Even Shi Zhang could not help but be surprised at this situation.


    Gudong!


    Shi Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    The corner of his mouth twitched twice, and his voice was no longer loud. He said timidly, "since general Zhang knew about Shi Qi''s assassination of Hu Zhao, why didn''t he do it at the beginning?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were clear and said: "first, at that time, the three families joined hands. Although they sent people to assassinate Hu Zhao, it was only this matter. Based on Shi Qi''s affairs alone, it was impossible to convict you and destroy the three families."


    "Ding duo, let you break your muscles and bones."


    "After all, you can find a scapegoat and let someone else take the blame."


    "So, I leave Shi Qi and others."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition, if you don''t do anything after you assassinate Hu Zhao, and since then Ansheng has done something, then things will only stop here and will not expand again."


    "But if you take action again, you will be guilty of several crimes."


    "Like today!"


    "You have ignored the lives of the people and sold inferior coal and stone, resulting in the death of the people."


    "Damn you


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes gradually sharp, said: "now three families commit crimes, killing you is natural, in line with public opinion. Under such circumstances, who dares to shout for you and who will cry out for you? In the hearts of the people, they all want you to die! "


    Shi Zhang was dead hearted.


    At this moment, Shi Zhang felt the sophistication of Zhang''s Embroidery methods.


    How cruel!


    Zhang Xiu is waiting for them to make mistakes.


    Shi Zhang clenched his teeth and said, "you''re just waiting for us to make mistakes, waiting for us to take the bait, right?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "I''m waiting for you to take the bait. As long as you deal with Hu Zhao again, you will do worse things. But in my heart, I don''t want you to commit crimes. I want you to be honest and abide by the law. Unfortunately, you don''t want to


    Shi Zhang didn''t say any more. It''s so far. There''s nothing to say.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu are the same.


    Even though they beg for mercy from Zhang Xiu, it''s too late now, and they have no chance to repent.


    "Da! "Da!"


    The rapid sound of horse''s hooves came from not far away.


    But Wang Yue came in a hurry on horseback. He rode very fast. In a twinkling of an eye, he stopped at Zhang Xiu''s side. Although Wang Yue was old, he was vigorous and never old at all.


    He got off the horse and quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side to stand.


    At this moment, on Wang Yue''s rough face, with a quick look, he reported: "my Lord, there''s something wrong. Countless people, because of the coal and stone affairs, gathered in the prefect''s residence to ask Hu Zhao to give them justice. "


    "The people are fierce and unstoppable."


    "These people are all because of inferior coal and stone. Countless people gathered to let Hu Zhao preside over justice. After all, people are dead, and many people dare not use coal and stone any more. They have to ask for justice. "


    Wang Yue''s face was full of worry.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Shi Zhang heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Shi Zhang said coldly, "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you''ve been fighting against us. Now, we don''t give our three families any chance to survive, but now, there''s something wrong in huaixian county. "


    "In the same way, the other counties in Hanoi are also in trouble."


    "Hu Zhao can''t deal with the coal and stone issue after it gets big. You can''t stabilize or solve the situation without our three families working together to suppress it. "


    Shi Zhang said, "you have to ask us."Zhang Xiu said: "you are so confident!"


    Shi Zhang said: "as long as you don''t kill me, Dou Yu and Niu Li, keep our three families. Then, the three of us will fully cooperate and try our best to suppress the turbulent situation. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, categorically answer.


    For Zhang Xiu, it''s a very simple thing, and it doesn''t take much thought.


    Niu left and said, "General Zhang, why do you want to do this? As long as you don''t kill us. Then, if you don''t need to come forward, the three families will suppress the situation and eliminate things for you. This is a matter caused by our three families, which can easily resolve it. "


    Dou Yu also seemed to see the hope and quickly said: "yes, yes, Zhang Xiu, as long as you open up one side. Our three families are fully cooperating in handling matters. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu once again strong answer, said: "in fact, to eliminate this coal and stone turmoil, this is not difficult. Do you really think that the world will not turn without you? You are self righteous. "


    Shi Zhang said, "how do you solve the problem of coal and stone?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "first, severely punish the murderer!"


    "You three are the heads of the three families. You disobeyed the law and discipline and caused the death of the people. If we punish you severely, the people will be able to calm down their anger. "


    "Second, compensation for losses!"


    "Compensation and pension shall be given to the dead people. The common people bought inferior coal and stone, and my official took back all the original price. "


    There was a sharp look in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and she said, "do you think people will make trouble after this? As long as you are pushed out, all your anger will pour out on you. What does it have to do with Hu Zhao? "


    "Since then, the anger of the people has subsided!"


    "Since then, Huai county has been stable."


    Zhang Xiu said: "although killing the people of your three families will cause certain turbulence. But when you violate the law and discipline, and all the people scold you, if you kill you, not only will no one plead for you, but the people will only say that you killed well. "


    Shi Zhang''s face changed greatly.


    It''s over!


    Now, they''re completely over.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, in particular, are tantamount to cutting off their retreat. Even he can foretell the scene that he has become the target of thousands of people. He can even foretell what kind of tragedy it is to be scolded by thousands of people.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel!"


    Shi Zhang''s face was full of tears and despair. In front of Zhang Xiu''s calculation, he didn''t even have a chance.


    At this moment, Shi Zhang deeply regretted.


    If he was not bewitched by Dou Yu and Niu Li, and did not fight against Zhang Xiu, there would not be today''s scene. If he is not greedy for the interests of coal and stone, it will not be so.


    Unfortunately, it''s all too late.


    Niu Li and Dou Yu are also sad. They drop their heads and have no spirit.


    Zhang Xiu asks Zhang Xia to arrange the army to return to the barracks, take a team of soldiers, escort Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li, and go straight to the prefect''s residence.

 Chapter 445

    Outside the majestic prefect''s residence, it was already overcrowded at the moment.


    Countless people gathered here.


    More than 30 corpses were lying in the open space outside the prefect''s residence. Under the icy wind, small snowflakes fell from the air, making more than 30 bodies lying on the ground stiff.


    Next to these bodies, there were people crying and choking, and many people around.


    The whole scene was very chaotic.


    The people gathered here came to Hu Zhao for justice. In the eyes of the people, only Zhang Xiu mines the coal sold in the market.


    Zhang Xiu is the representative of the government. People gather here to ask for a statement.


    "Creak!"


    Suddenly, the door of the prefect''s house opened.


    Hu Zhao, dressed in an official robe and a Jinxian crown, strode out. Before he came out, he had already let people know the general situation, so he came out because he had a bottom in his heart.


    More than 30 people died in a row, Hu Zhao''s face was extremely grim.


    Hu Zhao does not believe that coal and stone are poisonous. Because it snowed and the weather turned cold during this period, he used coal and stone every day and never showed signs of poisoning.


    All of a sudden, countless people were poisoned, and things were strange.


    Hu Zhao didn''t believe it.


    Hu Zhao came out and looked at countless people outside. In a flash, there were countless people gathered, shouting.


    "Mr. Hu, you are the master of Qingtian. You are our master! Five members of our family died overnight. How can we live without our children and grandchildren? "


    "Hu Taishou, this is Zhang Xiu''s coal stone, let Zhang Xiu give a statement."


    "Please make Hu Tai shou the master!"


    ¡­¡­


    In the crowd, shouts came one after another.


    Countless people are shouting.


    The expression on the faces of countless people was extremely angry. Because they think that Zhang Xiu cheated them. The reason is very simple. All the coal and stone are mined by Zhang Xiu.


    Now there is a problem with the coal and stone, which is Zhang Xiu''s problem.


    Zhang Xiu must be responsible!


    This is the voice of everyone.


    Hu Zhao did not speak, but stood quietly at the gate of the prefect''s house. His sharp eyes swept all the people present one by one. He is still quietly watching, has not spoken.


    Under the cold Su of Hu Zhao, the noisy scene gradually quieted down from the beginning.


    Choking sound, also completely disappeared.


    All eyes fell on Hu Zhao.


    The reason why they yelled and made a scene was to ask Hu Zhao to do justice. For the common people, they think that the coal and stone are sold by the merchants under Zhang Xiu''s command. They can''t get back compensation from Zhang Xiu.


    This is what the people think.


    Seeing that the people were quiet, Hu Zhao said in a brilliant voice, "now I don''t speak. OK, just listen to me. Remember, listen to me. If you have any idea or dissatisfaction, you''ll have to wait until I finish


    All the people nodded together.


    Hu Zhao continued: "I already know that some people died of coal and stone poisoning. When you came to the prefect''s mansion, did you take the coal and stone you bought and ask the merchant? "


    "Although everyone knows that general Zhang arranged for people to sell coal and stone, he was in huaixian city. Only the anthracite shop in Anren street is the only legal selling point under general Zhang. "


    "The coal and stone of other shops were not arranged by general Zhang."


    "You bought coal and stone from merchants of other shops. When something goes wrong, you think it''s general Zhang''s problem. Have you ever thought that in case something goes wrong? "


    Hu Zhao continued: "the most important thing is that the price of coal and stone sold in the coal and stone shop under general Zhang in Anren street is one cent higher than that in other places."


    "If all the merchants'' coal and stone were purchased from general Zhang. They buy at a high price and sell at a low price. Are there any businessmen who do business at a loss? "


    Hu Zhao raised questions.


    WOW!!


    Countless people are talking in an uproar.


    Everyone was awakened by Hu Zhao''s words, because the truth is so simple that no one is willing to do business at a loss.


    Especially businessmen.


    If a businessman buys at a high price but sells at a low price, it''s a brain problem.


    The only problem is coal and stone.


    Only in this way can the price be low.


    Countless people were in a panic.


    They originally thought that the coal and stone were produced by Zhang Xiu. As long as they find out Zhang Xiu correctly, they will be able to run away from the monk but not the temple. But after Hu Zhao''s words, once it wasn''t Zhang Xiu''s coal and stone, who would they ask for compensation?


    The people are very worried.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    Sobs, again.


    Hu Zhao raised his hand and pressed down to signal the people to be quiet. With Hu Zhao''s action, the people gradually stopped talking, and they were all quiet. They looked at Hu Zhao again, waiting for Hu Zhao''s reply.Hu zhaolang said in a voice: "we will investigate the coal and stone poisoning."


    "If there are illegal businessmen selling inferior coal and stone, our official will punish them severely. In addition, if there are deaths or people who have bought the coal and stone, I promise that those who should be compensated will be compensated and will not delay. "


    "Three days. Please give me three days."


    Hu Zhao gave a definite time and said again, "in three days, I will investigate everything, come up with a compensation plan, and compensate all the people."


    "No way!"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    "In case all the businessmen run away in three days, who shall we go to?"


    "We don''t agree!"


    "Please give us an account now."


    The people in the crowd yelled. After some people started to make noise, in an instant, the people who were still calm started to make noise. Countless people keep talking and disagree with Hu Zhao''s arrangement.


    Ordinary people are short of ideas.


    They gather here with a blind attitude. If someone in the crowd agrees to the three-day terms, all the people will follow and will not insist.


    There are people to guide, countless people refuse.


    Hu Zhao listened to the people''s words, frowning, because now the settlement compensation, it must be impossible.


    He didn''t know the details.


    If we want to compensate the people, we must wait for him to find out the situation and the source of the problem. Otherwise, the foot doctor can only solve the problem of headache.


    When Hu Zhao was in a dilemma, all of a sudden, the people outside the prefect''s residence began to make a noise.


    "Get out of the way, all of you!"


    A stern voice came from the crowd.


    There are soldiers in front of the road, and Zhang Xiu strides in behind. Behind Zhang Xiu, Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li, who were detained by Wang Yue, were closely followed by a group of businessmen and Shi Qi.


    All the merchants, as well as Shi Qi and other assassins, were brought by royal guards arranged by Wang Yue. Only with these people can we solve the problem of coal and stone. Without these people, there will be less persuasion.


    When people saw that Zhang Xiu was coming, they made way one by one.


    soon, Zhang Xiu arrived at the prefect''s residence.


    Hu Zhao immediately saluted. He thought that Zhang Xiu knew about the trouble caused by the common people, and said: "Lord, you are incompetent and can''t stabilize the situation."


    "I don''t blame you!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    When Hu Zhao saw Shi Zhang and others, he was surprised and asked, "Lord, what''s the matter with them being detained?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this time, Shi Zhang and others are responsible for coal and stone poisoning. Now, it has been verified. Next, leave it to me. "


    Hu Zhaomei''s head goes up. Unexpectedly, it''s like this. When he is at a loss, Zhang Xiu solves the problem.


    "I''ll do it


    Hu Zhao was relieved. Although it was Zhang Xiu who dealt with it, it was good for Hu Zhao to solve the people''s problems.


    The rest, he didn''t care.

 Chapter 446

    Although Zhang Xiu is young, she has an extraordinary bearing. When he stood at the gate of the prefect''s mansion, he had his own aura and put a lot of pressure on people. The people around him held their breath and did not dare to talk nonsense any more.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "about this coal and stone poisoning, I have investigated everything clearly. This time, the three families headed by Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li jointly mined coal and stone in Hanoi. "


    "What they mine is inferior coal."


    "They first buy the coal and stone under their command, and then mix them with inferior coal and stone for sale."


    "So, in order to make huge profits."


    Zhang Xiu looked sharp and said, "all the coal and stone merchants under the three families have been captured. The shops where you bought coal and stone have also been closed down. "


    "Bring the men up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In an instant, the soldier came forward with a man.


    Some of the shopkeepers in the major families are thin and some are fat, with a total of 12 people.


    They are all businessmen of three families.


    Now, all of them have been captured and none of them has run away.


    Zhang Xiubai pointed to twelve merchants and said, "this is the man who sells inferior coal and stone."


    In a word, it resonates with the people.


    Indeed, they bought coal and stone from the twelve merchants. Because in huaixian City, these 12 people occupy more than half of the coal and stone market. After all, the coal and stone shops under Zhang Xiu''s command are more expensive and few people buy them.


    One by one, the people were angry and yelled.


    Everyone''s spearhead is no longer aimed at Zhang Xiu or Hu Zhao, but at 12 businessmen.


    Zhang Xiu let the people vent.


    Good half ring, wait for people to vent, everything is quiet down, Zhang Xiu just light cough two.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although the coal and stone were sold by 12 merchants, they were only accomplices. The real culprits were historians, Dou family and Niu family, and they were the heads of the three families."


    "Shi Zhang, the patriarch of the historian family, Dou Yu, the patriarch of the Dou family, and Niu Li, the patriarch of the Niu family, were all taken by this official."


    "This time, we will ask them about their sins."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, the three families committed crimes not once or twice. Before that, Hu Zhao was the prefect of Hanoi County, and the three families had sent the dead to assassinate him. However, they were captured alive and kept in custody. "


    "Come on, bring people up."


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, soldiers detain Shi Qi and others again.


    Zhang Xiu introduced the identities of Shi Qi and others, and said: "the three families headed by Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li not only assassinated the officials of the government, but also oppressed the people and wasted their lives."


    "Three big families, it''s time to kill!"


    "The three families of Shi, Dou and Niu are the culprits."


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said again, "today, I will capture the patriarchs of the three families and seal them up. In front of all the people, I will take Dou Yu, Shi Zhang and Niu Li to the right place. "


    "In addition, all the merchants and the dead were executed for their heinous crimes."


    "Come on, execute!"


    Zhang Xiu''s crisp order.


    After Zhang Xiu''s order was given, the soldiers started immediately.


    One after another, Shi Zhang, Dou Yu, Niu Li and others were all killed. All of them died at the gate of the prefect''s residence, and none of them escaped.


    The scene of Zhang Xiu''s crisp killing has made countless people keep quiet, and no one dares to speak again. Even Zhang Xiu''s action made the people afraid.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the common people and continued: "there are countless villagers here, some suffering people and some suffering people. There are businessmen, there are hawkers, and there are countless ordinary people. "


    "In front of all of you, I want to tell you that I killed people. Under my command, no matter who you are, no matter who you come from, or who you are, you can kill anyone who breaks the law! "


    Zhang Xiu said: "today''s matter is my official''s reply to you."


    "Well done


    In the crowd, there were people shouting.


    After the cry came out, the breath in the hearts of the people also eased out.


    "Well done


    "Shi Zhang should be killed!"


    "Dou yu should be killed!"


    "Kill


    Countless people were shouting and shouting, one after another.


    In his voice, he expressed his anger.


    In his voice, he expressed his depression.


    Under the pressure of Zhang Xiu, the people raised their hands.


    No one spoke any more. Zhang Xiu said, "although the murder of Shi Zhang, Dou Yu and Niu Li has solved the culprit, I lament for the dead people, whether in Huai county or in other parts of Hanoi county.""The dead are gone, and the living need to survive."


    "I have no choice but to save the dead. I am willing to compensate the living. "


    "All the dead people will be compensated."


    "Anyone who has bought inferior coal and stone can take the inferior coal and stone in his hand and exchange it for new coal and stone at the coal and stone shop in Anren street. Although you buy it at a low price, I will exchange it for you unconditionally according to the weight of coal and stone. "


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and announced the compensation scheme for the dead.


    This scheme is extremely excellent.


    After all, Zhang Xiu had enough money to check the Niu family, the historian family and the Dou family. The three families are all rich families with countless wealth. Even if Zhang Xiu gives youwo compensation, she can still get countless benefits by checking the three families.


    After all the arrangements, Zhang Xiu once again said in a loud voice: "now, what should be exchanged will be exchanged for coal and stone. Those who should receive compensation shall go directly to the prefecture to receive compensation. "


    Long live the general


    In the crowd, there are people shouting.


    What is really popular with the people is their real interests. When the people get enough compensation, they are completely down-to-earth and have no more worries.


    Long live the general


    Long live the general


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded.


    The sound converged and soared to the sky.


    After a long time, the cry of the people subsided. The people who gathered at the gate of the prefect''s mansion scattered one after another, while those who should be left remained.


    Hu Zhao looked worried and said: "Lord, according to this compensation scheme, now Hanoi Prefecture is not rich. After paying compensation to the people, they lost money and grain, and asked the Lord to allocate money for relief. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "now huaixian County, there are three golden mountains, aren''t there? I''m not responsible for checking the historians, the Dou''s and the Niu''s. It''s up to you to check these three. "


    "You will take over all the land titles, money and grain you have checked. Although the matter in huaixian county has been solved, there will be compensation for the dead people in each county. "


    "When all the people are compensated, there will be a lot of money and food left. After all, the three families have been in huaixian for a long time, and they certainly have rich savings. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "with a rich family background, you can manage Hanoi County in a bold way."


    "Thank you


    Hu Zhao was very happy when he heard the speech.


    With money, you have confidence. If there is no money in hand, there will be no confidence in reform. Even if he wants to carry out drastic reform, it will be quite difficult.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from a distance.


    However, a royal guard quickly came to Wang Yue''s side and said something in a low voice.


    Then, a letter was handed in.


    After Wang Yue took it, he went to one side and quickly read it. With a joyful look on his face, he quickly walked up to Zhang Xiu and said: "Lord, just received the news, the royal guards of Yecheng sent Tian Feng to huaixian. At present, it has been sent to the barracks. "


    Then he handed the letter.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly. After reading it, her face showed a look of approval and said, "what a Miao, it''s a talent that can be made. Miao sent it back to Tian Feng and made a great contribution. Wang Yue, those who should be rewarded should be rewarded. Don''t be stingy. This Miao Yong gave me a big surprise. "


    "I''ll do it


    He felt that Wang Gongzi should be more happy.

 Chapter 447

    Zhang Xiu is excited in the heart, no longer delay, command a way: "go, we return to barracks immediately!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded.


    Zhang Xiu takes Wang Yue and his party to leave the prefecture and go to the barracks. Back to the Chinese army tent, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged to bring Tian Feng to the tent.


    At this time, Tian Feng didn''t bind his hands and feet or cover his eyes. He knew that he had been taken to huaixian County, not only for him, but also for his wife and children.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Tian Feng and said with a smile, "Mr. Tian, we meet again."


    Tian Feng''s face was full of anger. He said in a deep voice, "I don''t want to see you. Zhang Xiu, you''ve taken me from Yecheng to huaixian by despicable means. You''re a villain. You don''t have to do anything about it. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "you''re right. In order to bring you to Yecheng, I really need everything. Why not have a chance to cut off Yuan Shao? What''s more, Yuan Shao has already put you in prison and no longer uses you. "


    Tian Feng said, "I''d like to go to prison, too!"


    Zhang xiudao: "I''m afraid it''s not. In my opinion, if you''ve got Tian Feng in prison, you can''t get out of prison again."


    Tian Feng replied, "when my Lord''s spirit is gone, I will be released."


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu answered flatly.


    Tian Feng said, "why?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "Yuan Shao is extremely good at face. Just imagine what he would do to you if he defeated benjiang and returned to Yecheng with his winning division? "


    "Yuan Shao, I''m sure I''ll show off in front of you. Maybe Yuan Shao will let you go. Because of Tian Feng''s incompetence, he can set off Yuan Shao''s great image. "


    "But Yuan Shao will be defeated!"


    "As long as Yuan Shao loses to me again, if he doesn''t have Tian Feng, Yuan Shao will lose to me once in a while. It''s common for soldiers to win or lose."


    "But with your Tian Feng''s existence, Yuan Shao lost his battle in succession."


    "Yuan Jun is vulnerable in front of me."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and she said in a deep voice: "if Yuan Shao releases you, as soon as you see Tian Feng, it''s like looking in the mirror and seeing the failed Yuan Shao himself. How could Yuan Shao, who was born in a noble family, bear such humiliation. Yuan Shao''s greatest possibility is to put you in a cell all the time and never see each other. "


    Tian Feng''s expression was a little dispirited.


    As a wise man, he knew that there was no problem in Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Yuan Shao is such a person.


    Proud!


    Self willed!


    I can''t tolerate any flaw in myself.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and continued: "Mr. Tian is a smart man who can understand the truth of my words. Mr. Tian thinks that as long as Yuan Shao loses again, can he still reuse you? "


    Tian Feng took a deep breath and said, "but the Lord will not be defeated if he fights with you."


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "as long as Yuan Shao enters the army, he will surely lose."


    "Ha, you are so confident."


    Tian Feng hummed coldly, but he sighed at the thought of Zhang Xiu''s cunning and Yuan Shao''s self righteousness. Although Yuan Shao was born in a noble family, yuan Shaozhen couldn''t compare with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I am confident that I have enough ability to beat Yuan Shao."


    "Yuan Shao is nothing."


    "He occupies four states. He looks powerful. In fact, he is a paper tiger."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I saved Mr. Tian from Yecheng. Mr. Tian is honest and upright. Once you are in prison, who will support your family? Who will take care of his wife and children? "


    "These are inseparable from Mr. Tian."


    "Does Mr. Tian want your wife, children and parents to live in poverty? Clearly you can let them have no worries about food and clothing, but because of your stubbornness, let them live precariously, let them live in straitened circumstances. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "especially when you are in prison, there are few people who send charcoal in the snow and many people who fall into the well. Everyone criticizes the Tian family. How can your wife, children and parents live in the world? "


    Tian Feng was silent when he heard the speech.


    Yes!


    He is the only child in his family. At that time, his wife, children and parents all need his care and support. He is the pillar of his family. Once he goes wrong, who will support him.


    This is not considered by Tian Feng.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Mr. Tian has great talents. I need such talents as Mr. Tian."


    Tian Feng said to himself, "what talent am I? I''m under the Lord''s command. I''m famous for my hard work. Even though he is my advocate, he often contradicts me. General Zhang wants to recruit me. Are you not afraid of being contradicted by me? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m afraid, I''m not afraid!"


    Tian Feng said: "how to say?"


    Zhang Xiu smiles, and she is sure, because he hears Tian Feng''s idea.


    Zhang Xiu explained: "I''m afraid. I''m in public. I''m contradicted by Mr. Tian. I''m really embarrassed and can''t get off the stage. It''s the same with everyone else. ""I''m not afraid because I don''t have people like Mr. Tian who dare to speak up and accept remonstrations. As the saying goes, "if you use copper as a mirror, you can straighten your clothes; if you use history as a mirror, you can know the ups and downs; if you use people as a mirror, you can see the gains and losses."


    "Only when Mr. Tian is a mirror can I know the gains and losses of my own mistakes."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so I''m not afraid. I need Mr. Tian to correct my mistakes."


    Tian Feng was shocked.


    Zhang Xiu is so bold.


    Compared with Yuan Shao, Zhang Xiu is not from an aristocratic family. Although she is only a martial arts man, her ability and skill, as well as her mind, talent and learning are all better than Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Xiuding looked at Tian Feng with sincere eyes and said: "I''m serious about inviting Mr. Tian. I sincerely hope that Mr. Tian will take up the post under my command. "


    Tian Feng took a deep breath.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, when it comes to this point, his heart is also moved.


    Tian Feng is highly intelligent and not indecisive. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision in his heart. He folded his hands and said, "I''ll meet you in xiatianfeng!"


    Zhang xiudao: "Yuan Hao, and sit down to talk."


    Tian Feng said, "thank you, Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Yuanhao, surrender to me. I order you to take charge of the Academy of inspectors, take the post of governor of the Academy of inspectors, and be responsible for inspecting and impeaching officials. If officials are treacherous, despicable and corrupt, they will be impeached. In addition, in the joint trial of major cases, you and the Ministry of punishment will try them together and make a fair judgment. In addition, the Inspectorate will arrange officials to inspect all counties and counties to detect evils. "


    Tian Feng was surprised to hear that.


    In Tian Feng''s opinion, the so-called Inspectorate has similar responsibilities to the imperial censor station. He, the governor of the Inspectorate, is in fact equivalent to the censor appointed by the emperor.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind is so big!


    One of the officers appointed by Chieh Si Li was an official equivalent to that of Yushitai. At this moment, Tian Feng seems to have a glimpse of Zhang Xiu''s ambition.


    However, this is hidden.


    As a general, Yuan Shao was in charge of Bingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou, and his strength was the highest in the world. Everyone knows that Yuan Shao had a bad heart and intended to dominate the world.


    However, Yuan Shao has never acted.


    Through the conversation just now, Tian Feng found that Zhang Xiu was the same.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t show it.


    Although Zhang Xiu has set up an inspector''s court and a governor of the inspector''s court, no one can blame Zhang Xiu, even though the duties of the inspector''s court are similar to those of the imperial court.


    Because Zhang Xiu did not violate the law and discipline, nor did she disobey the orders of the imperial court.


    No one can pick out a thorn in the new organization.


    Tian Feng took a deep breath, suppressed all kinds of thoughts in his heart, and then said: "Lord, the duties of the inspector''s court are similar to those of the censor''s station, but when I first heard about the inspector''s court, I dare to ask what kind of organization it is? Besides, what is the Ministry of punishment? "


    In this era, there was no Inspectorate or six ministries.


    This is all arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    Although Tian Feng had a guess, he still asked.


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu replied, "the duties of the Inspectorate are indeed similar to those of the censor station. This body was set up by this official. The Ministry of punishment, one of the six departments under my command, was also set up by me. Under my command, there are also the Ministry of officials, the Ministry of rites, the Ministry of work, the Ministry of household and the Ministry of war. The six departments are mainly.... "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the situation of the six.


    After Zhang Xiu''s elaboration, Tian Feng''s eyes stare at the eldest and takes a breath again.


    He was surprised at Zhang Xiu''s courage.


    The division of the six divisions can correspond to the emperor''s senior officials one by one, but the division of the six divisions is more clear.


    All responsibilities are clear at a glance.


    Tian Feng was not only shocked, but also surprised by Zhang Xiu''s intelligence.


    Zhang Xiu has never read a book systematically. She is just a martial arts man, but she has such intelligence, which is really extraordinary. This time, Tian Feng was also admired by Zhang Xiu. He solemnly said, "my Lord, I admire you for your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuanhao praised you. You are upright and easy to break the rules. I order you to be the governor of the inspector''s court. In this way, it fits your temperament


    "Thank you


    Tian Feng bowed his hand to thank him, and his heart was also agitated.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "Yuanhao and Jueyi are bosom friends. Jueyi is in charge of the army. Go and meet him."


    "Here it is


    Tian Feng should bow his hand and withdraw from the camp.


    After leaving the camp, Tian Feng went back to the camp where he lived, comforted the family members, and also said that he would submit to Zhang Xiu. For Tian Feng''s family, Tian Feng''s peace is the best result.


    Who Tian Feng is loyal to is Tian Feng''s business. They don''t interfere. So when Tian Feng finished, he arranged for his family to live in Chang''an instead of staying in Huai county.


    Chang''an is the base of Zhang Xiu.


    That''s the safest place.


    Tian Feng''s family left, just ready to see Zhang jaw, did not expect, Zhang jaw is already taking the initiative to visit. When Tian Feng saw Zhang''s jaw, he looked at it carefully, especially Zhang''s bearing was just like that. He was full of energy and spirit. After he was obviously obedient to Zhang Xiu, he had a very comfortable life.Zhang said: "Sir, I haven''t seen you for a long time. You''ve reduced a lot."


    Tian Feng laughed and said, "it''s a little thinner, but it''s not in the way."


    "I''ve just got the news that Mr. Wang has become the governor of the Inspectorate. If you submit to your Lord, you will be respected. Congratulations, sir


    On Tian Feng''s appointment, Zhang Xiu spread the news through Wang Yue''s royal guards.


    Make sure everyone under Zhang Xiu knows.


    Tian Feng said: "I''ve praised you, which is also valued by my Lord. I heard from my Lord that you are now in charge of the army. But I don''t know the details. "


    Zhang replied, "Sir, you know the structure of the Lord''s army. In addition to the Langya camp, the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army, I am now in charge of the rest of the regular ordinary soldiers. "


    "Good!"


    Tian Feng made friends with Zhang Yan.


    After a pause, Tian Feng said with emotion, "my Lord is really bold, whether it''s my appointment or your appointment."


    Zhang chin said with a smile: "that''s true!"


    After a pause, Zhang jaw said: "under the Lord''s command, it''s really better than under Yuan Shao''s command. Under Yuan Shao''s command, there are restrictions everywhere, and even things may be suspected. But here, my Lord, there is no such thing


    "Under the command of the Lord, we only look at the ability to do things. As long as you are diligent and do your part well, there will be no problem. However, under Yuan Shao''s command, the relationship is intertwined. We should not only do things, but also be careful to avoid offending others. "


    "Otherwise, things can''t be done well."


    "Who has the heart to do things with such frequent heart fights?"


    Zhang jaw said with a smile: "I''m not sorry to be obedient to my Lord. Now, we know how it feels to be trusted. "


    Tian Feng nodded and laughed. After a long time, he changed his words and asked, "your family members have been taken away. Have they all been sent to live in Chang''an now?"


    "Yes


    Zhang said: "I went to Chang''an a few days ago. They are in Chang''an, and their safety is guaranteed, and I can rest assured. "


    "That''s true!"


    Tian Fengdian answered.


    Two colleagues who had known each other before, now they are colleagues, and they are even closer, talking about some recent events.


    Everything in the past is in a joke.

 Chapter 448

    In late December, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning joined forces and won the whole Hanoi county. On the surface, at least, the harvest has fallen in Hanoi county. After Zhang Xiu got the news, he ordered Huang Zhong to stay at the border between Hanoi Prefecture and Jizhou in case of Yuan Shao''s attack.


    It''s freezing now, and it''s not good for fighting.


    Now, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to fight with Yuan Shao.


    He can''t go to Jizhou.


    Because the foundation is not stable.


    Huang Zhong''s Feixiong army was left in town just in case, while Gan Ning''s liehu army began to withdraw to Huai county.


    Now huaixian has changed a lot.


    The whole huaixian County, although it is cold winter, but also busy. Hu Zhao completely controlled huaixian County, taking huaixian County as a breakthrough point, exerting his influence little by little, and changing the situation of huaixian county.


    Although Hu Zhao was the prefect of Hanoi County, he was not impatient to control all the counties. Because although each county has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, they have different situations and may not be able to carry out the order.


    So what Hu Zhao wants to do is to go on step by step.


    In huaixian busy, Zhang Xiu also from time to time, go to the city.


    On this day, while Zhang Xiu was wandering around, Wang Yue came in a hurry and reported: "Lord, there is news from Chang''an. This news was sent by Xu Shangshu. "


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    After Zhang Xiu took it, she opened the letter directly and showed a smile on her face.


    The more Wang saw this, the better news he knew.


    "Good, good, good!"


    After Zhang Xiu handed the letter to Wang Yue, she said, "go, let''s go back to Huai county. Now that the war is over, it''s time to return to Chang''an. The war with Yuan Shao has come to an end for the time being. "


    Wang Yue looked at it quickly.


    The content of the letter is that Zuo Fengyi and the prefect of Hedong county all arrived in Chang''an, handed over the seal and were willing to submit to Zhang Xiu. Both of them arrived in Chang''an, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s interview.


    This is not a nominal surrender.


    It''s true submission.


    If they were not true obedience, Zuo Fengyi and the prefect of Hedong county would not come to Chang''an in person.


    Sima Yi once said that Hu Zhao knew Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong, but now that Zuo Fengyi and Hanoi county are both obedient, Zhang Xiu doesn''t need to worry about them any more and can take control of them.


    Although there is still a part of Henan that has not been won, all in all, for Zhang Xiu, it almost won the whole Sili area.


    Zhang Xiu is a real feudal official.


    Zhang Xiu returned to the barracks and arranged for people to pack up. At the same time, Zhang Xiu inquired about Gan Ning''s itinerary. Now Ganning is one day away from huaixian county.


    When Zhang Xiu learns that Gan Ning is about to return, she doesn''t wait any longer. She arranges the royal guards to send a message to Gan Ning, asking him to send troops to Chang''an.


    Then, Zhang Xiu meets Hu Zhao again and talks about leaving.


    Hu Zhao looked solemn and said, "please rest assured, Hanoi Prefecture will be greatly governed under his humble position. In addition, humble position will deal with the matter of starting a scholar. Next year, it will start. "


    "I believe you!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in praise. He believed that with Hu Zhao''s skill, it would be successful.


    Arrange all things well, and Zhang Xiu mobilizes the army to evacuate.


    The army is leaving. It''s huge.


    Zhang Xiu left huaixian and went straight to Chang''an.


    Although the road braved the wind and snow, it was smooth. There was no heavy snow blocking the road. Just after December and in January, Zhang Xiu''s army returned to Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu''s expedition lasted for several months.


    However, it is of great significance to the whole group of Zhang Xiu.


    On the one hand, it is the expansion of Zhang Xiu''s strength, which has won Hongnong County, Hanoi county and Henan Yin County, and the strength has at least doubled. On the other hand, it attracts more talents and has stronger cohesion.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the city, Xu Shu took people out of the city.


    Countless people cheered.


    The faces of countless officials were full of pride.


    After meeting with Xu Shu, Zhang Xiu introduced new faces such as Yang Xiu, Tian Feng and Zhang Yan to the public, and then led them into the city. Back at the general''s residence, Zhang Xiu didn''t have time to meet Huang Yueying and Cao Jie, so she went straight to the hall and arranged for someone to summon Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong, and Zuo Fengyi, Fangjun.


    Zuo Fengyi is not only a regional name, but also an official name. He is one of the three assistants in the capital.


    Fang Jun and Wang Yi are good friends.


    The two come together to surrender.


    Fang Jun was in his early 40s, and his temples were already in the color of wind and frost. Wang Yi is about the same age as Fang Jun, in his early 40s, but he is elegant and elegant, and has the style of a gentleman.


    Zhang Xiu is dusty and a little tired. When he saw them, he said, "come on, give me a seat."


    The attendant brought the table.


    At this time, Wang Yi and Fang Jun are looking at Zhang Xiu. When they saw Zhang Xiu for the first time, they were still surprised to see her so young even though they knew she was young.Such a hero, so young.


    Wang Yi was quite moved to see that Zhang Xiu''s clothes were not neat and even dusty. He didn''t think that Zhang Xiu was neglecting, on the contrary, he was more happy, because as soon as Zhang Xiu came back to the house, he immediately received them, which showed that he valued them.


    Fang Jun saw this and nodded slightly.


    Without any hesitation, Wang Yi took out the seal ribbon, held it in his hands, and said, "General Zhang, this is the seal ribbon of the governor of Hedong. Wang Yi is willing to submit to General Zhang and ask him to accept the seal and choose another sage! "


    Fang Jun, too, took out the seal ribbon and held it in his hand, saying the same thing.


    Both of them are willing to submit to Zhang Xiu.


    As for the arrangement of Zhang Xiu, it''s Zhang Xiu''s business.


    Two people take out the seal ribbon at the same time, both want to see Zhang Xiu how to deal with things.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she was amused.


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun were obedient, but they didn''t have to hand in yinshou and could continue to hold their own official posts. In other words, they just need to stay in place and wait for Zhang Xiu to adjust.


    However, they handed in yinshou directly.


    This tests Zhang Xiu''s ability.


    If Zhang Xiu accepts yinshou and fails to arrange the new appointment of the two, it may result in a tie between the two people. After all, both of them are now Taishou of one side, and their official positions are not low. They can be regarded as the feudal officials in Sili area.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept yinshou, then now Zhang Xiu doesn''t adjust his official position. When he turns around, Zhang Xiu immediately adjusts the positions of the two people, which will be too humble.


    Zhang Xiu looks calm.


    This is not difficult for him.


    Zhang Xiu got up with a smile, went to Wang Yi and grabbed the seal ribbon of the governor of Hedong. Then, Zhang Xiu went to Fangjun. When he comes to Fang Jun, he grabs Zuo Fengyi''s seal and goes back to his seat.


    When the two seals were placed in front of her, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "I know your conduct. Whether it''s Zuo Fengyi or Hedong, compared with Chang''an, it''s a paradise. Even though the two places have suffered repeated wars, there are two people on one side, and the people of the two places can still get by. "


    "The Lord is wrong."


    Wang Yi''s face was calm and answered with a smile.


    Fang Jun followed suit.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "they are capable officials in governing local areas. As far as I know, Wang Yi is good at ruling by law and prefers to restrict the people with the law so that the people have the law to follow. Fang Jun also acted according to the law, but he was better at ruling by virtue and advocated lenient punishment to influence the people. "


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun were shocked by this.


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun are good at each other.


    It is true that Wang Yi bound the people with the law, and preferred the rule of law. But Fang Jun is different. He prefers to influence the people. He thinks that this is the root of local governance.


    Zhang Xiuyi opened her mouth and told them their own advantages and disadvantages, which surprised them.


    We can see Zhang Xiu''s understanding of them.

 Chapter 449

    Although Wang Yi and Fang Jungang came to Chang''an to submit to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu already knew them like this.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu has long been concerned about Zuo Fengyi and Hedong county.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu asked Wang Yue to send the royal guards to inquire about the news on her way back. Since we want to meet Fang Jun and Wang Yi, Zhang Xiu wants to know everything.


    Who are Fang Jun and Wang Yi?


    The power of Fangjun and Wangyi?


    It''s all the information that the royal guards want to inquire about.


    In this way, Zhang Xiu met two people, in order to do as if a few treasures in general, two people''s situation clearly.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she continued: "focusing on the rule of law, or focusing on the rule of virtue, there is no real difference between high and low. The best way to use it is with one heart. "


    "Just how to use it."


    "But on you, each has his own strong points."


    "You are all good at governing local areas. It''s a pity if you don''t work in local areas. However, you have both advantages and disadvantages in governing the local areas. So I hope you can learn from each other''s strong points and make up for your shortcomings. "


    Zhang Xiu put forward the final request.


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun were confused.


    What happened?


    Is it to let them learn from each other?


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun don''t understand. Look at me and I''ll look at you. For a moment, I didn''t know how to answer. They also know that Zhang Xiu''s ability is not incompetent.


    Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu can''t talk about it at will.


    Every sentence must have deep meaning.


    Wang Yi did not understand, or replied: "humble duty should listen to the general''s instruction."


    Fang Jun also said: "the general''s instruction is in Fang Jun''s mind. If you govern a place, you will ask brother Wang for advice. "


    Both agreed.


    Only two people to Zhang Xiu''s address, still with general address, this is not to the degree of recognition. Because in the current situation, Zhang Xiu has not solved the problem they have given.


    Zhang Xiu only accepted their respective imperial seals, and did not say what was arranged for them.


    The problem is still there!


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yi listens to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Wang Yi stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said in a voice: "I have ordered you to take the post of Zuo Fengyi. Although the people in Zuo Fengyi''s territory are influenced by Fang Jun, there are still some people who do not obey the law and need to be restrained by the tough means of the law. Therefore, I order you to take charge of Zuo Fengyi. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yi solemnly said: "the Lord arranges, the humble duty should go all out, certainly does not live up to the Lord''s high expectations."


    At this moment, Wang Yi''s name for Zhang Xiu changed.


    He was impressed by Zhang Xiu.


    Previously, Wang Yi and Fang Jun handed over their seals to see what Zhang Xiu would do with them. Now the disposal of Zhang Xiu makes Wang Yi speechless and convinced.


    Zhang Xiuxian accepted the seal of Wang Yi. Now, the appointment of Wang Yi does not reduce the official position of Wang Yi. It also makes Wang Yi govern the place, and does not allow Wang Yi to hold office in the same place.


    At the same time, it can solve Zuo Fengyi''s dilemma.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s ingenious means.


    At the moment, Fang Jun also knew that the place he would go next must be Hedong county. In his heart, he was also filled with emotion. There was no empty scholar under his fame. Zhang Xiu was worthy of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu heard Wang Yi''s words, her face showed a smile.


    Yes!


    The king''s kingdom was converted.


    Zhang Xiu grabs Zuo Fengyi''s seal and hands it out. After Wang Yi takes it, she returns to her seat. Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Fang Jun. she said in a loud voice, "Fang Jun, listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Fang Jun stood up and arched his hand to answer.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I worship you as the prefect of Hedong county. I hope that after you take up the post of Hedong County, you will combine hardness with softness, take the law as the hardness, and take the virtue as the softness, so as to make the people live and work in peace and contentment."


    Fang Jun said, "I will live up to my Lord''s high expectations."


    He also changed the name of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "as for the situation of your respective counties, you should understand each other. It''s rare for you to come to Chang''an. Today I''m going to hold a banquet for you. "


    "Thank you


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun answered.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for his family''s cooks to make Zhou Fu prepare a pork dish, and then gathered together six Shangshu, Wang Yue, Yang Xiu, Guo Yuan, Tian Feng and Zhang Yan.


    This banquet is full of talents.


    Whether it''s Li Ru, Jia Xu or Tian Feng, Zhang Yan or Wang Yi, Fang Jun or others, they are all talents. However, Tian Feng, Zhang Ya, Wang Yi and others did not eat pork.


    Today, pork is limited to Chang''an and nearby areas. Even though pork has not really become popular, there are countless people who know the delicacy of pork.


    When Tian Feng and others ate it, they were full of praise.Two words, delicious!


    All kinds of pork dishes conquer everyone''s taste buds.


    A banquet is a feast for both the guests and the host.


    Wang Yi and Fang Jun were so drunk that they fell down on the spot. Even the rest of them were drunk and drank a lot.


    This is a celebration of this great victory.


    Zhang Xiu is not drunk after drinking a thousand cups, her face is not red and her breath is not panting. Cup after cup of wine, a bubble after urine will return to normal. Zhang Xiu arranges people to help those who are slightly drunk to sober up and take them to rest.


    Fortunately, Xu Shu and Jia Xu are not drunk.


    Xu Shu and others are here. Zhang Xiu arranges the rest and goes back to the backyard to have a rest.


    After washing, Zhang Xiu sees Huang Yueying and Cao Jie, and her heart is warm. It is the so-called wife and child hot Kang, stay at home, heart will be completely clear down, do not need to manage the outside dispute.


    Zhang Xiu took a long rest. The next day, she began to deal with the government affairs.


    With Jia Xu and others, everything is very simple.


    Zhang Xiu is just browsing.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the room.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    With a creak, the door was pushed open, but Wang Yue pushed the door in and reported: "Lord, someone from the imperial court has come. The summoner has arrived at your house and is waiting in the hall. "


    "Let''s go and see you."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t have a good impression when she heard about the people in the imperial court.


    In the past, the emperor sent Kong Rong to Sili, intending to seize his papermaking skills. Zhang Xiu still clearly remembers this. For the emperor Liu Xie, Zhang Xiu is useful and he wants to use it. If Zhang Xiu is useless, Liu Xie will give up.


    Liu Xie is such a person.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe in Liu Xie, and she doesn''t want to work hard for Liu Xie.


    It''s a fool to follow Liu Xie.


    In this era, Zhang Xiu can''t follow Liu Xie and place everything on him.


    For some loyal to the emperor, Zhang Xiu has nothing to say. After all, everyone has his own aspirations. However, Zhang Xiu will not accept the forced loyalty, he is not willing to pay everything for Liu Xie.


    Liu Xie is human!


    Zhang Xiu is also a human being!


    Why should we give all the good things in our hands to Liu Xie.


    Zhang Xiu stood up, came to the study, saw the messenger. This time, it was not a senior member of the imperial court, but a eunuch of the imperial court.


    The eunuch knew about Kong Rong and knew more about Zhang Xiu''s strength. He didn''t dare to be presumptuous and didn''t ask Zhang Xiu to accept the edict. He just said the emperor''s edict politely and gave it to Zhang Xiu, so he left.


    Zhang Xiu took the imperial edict, but she had a thoughtful look in her eyes.


    In the imperial edict, Zhang Xiu was called to Xu du to report on his work. There was no superfluous words.


    Wang Yue took the order with Zhang Xiu. He solemnly said: "Lord, Xu is Cao Cao''s territory. Once in Xudu, life and death depend on Cao Cao. I suggest that you don''t have to pay attention to the emperor''s edict. "


    Zhang Xiu is thinking.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yue, summoned six ministers, Tian Feng, the inspector''s court, and the assistant officials of the general''s house to discuss affairs."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded and immediately informed him.

 Chapter 450

    The office of the six ministers was originally in the general''s mansion. The rest of the main books and long histories are also in the general''s office. Today, Tian Feng''s supervision house is also established in the general''s office.


    After all, Zhang Xiu''s general''s house was rebuilt from Dong Zhuo''s house. It covers a large area and has enough space for people to work.


    All of you come together.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at everyone with a look of pride on her face.


    There is no such talent line-up as Li yaxu and Xu yaxu.


    In terms of top talents, Zhang Xiu is strong enough.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "just now, I received an imperial edict from the imperial court. The emperor ordered me to report my work in Xudu. What do you suggest about it? "


    As soon as they heard this, they thought about the pros and cons. None of the people present was short-sighted. They were all very insightful.


    When they think about things, they all have their own positions and starting points.


    After half a sound, Pang Tong took the lead in saying: "Lord, I don''t recommend going to the humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Pang Tong had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "although the Lord and Cao Cao are now Weng''s son-in-law, there is no father and son on the battlefield, and they were hostile. Once the LORD came under the command of Cao Cao and was harmed, Cao Cao could send troops to annex the Sili area


    Li Ru echoed: "as the saying goes, the heart of harming people can''t be without, the heart of defending people can''t be without. I agree with Pang Shangshu''s suggestion. The emperor''s edict can be ignored. If the Lord doesn''t go to Xudu, just find a reason to shirk, and the emperor can''t say anything. The Lord is the body of all gold, and no harm is allowed. "


    Xu Shu also said: "Lord, I agree with Pang Shangshu and Li Shangshu''s suggestions."


    In the six books of history, Pang Tong, Li Ru and Xu Shu have spoken.


    When the rest heard it, they didn''t rush to make suggestions.


    At this time, Jia Xu stood up from his seat. Although he was old, he had excellent energy and spirit. He stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a straight face, "my Lord, I hold the opposite opinion in my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed and asked, "what suggestions does Wen he have?"


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to abide by the law.


    As Zhang Xiu''s heart, he is not indecisive, but decisive.


    He wants to go to Xudu.


    However, although Zhang Xiu has her own consideration, she will not be arbitrary. As the saying goes, if you listen to both sides, you will be wise; if you listen to more of the audience''s opinions, it will not make any difference.


    On the contrary, if you listen to what people say, there are always some things that he did not consider carefully.


    So Zhang Xiu asked for advice.


    Jia Xu bowed his hand and said, "I suggest going to Xudu for three reasons."


    When they heard this, they all cheered up.


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu has a strong voice. No one can ignore his opinions.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what are the three points?"


    Jia Xu was not impatient and said: "first, the LORD went to Xudu to ask for an official. My Lord has come step by step from the Nanyang prefect to today''s Sili Xiaowei. Although he has become a general, his power is still insufficient. "


    "So, more benefits."


    "I think the Lord is now, at least, a Taiwei. Cao Cao is Sikong, one of the three princes. The Lord served as the Taiwei, one of the three princes, in parallel with Cao Cao. "


    "In addition, the Lord also needs to fake the stanza, master the stanza of the son of heaven, and act according to the stanza of the son of heaven. In this way, only when the Lord crusades against all sides, can he go without disadvantage and be no longer controlled by others. "


    Jia Xu said: "although my Lord is strong now, he is still a lot worse."


    After hearing this, they all nodded in secret.


    Jia Xu mentioned the right, everyone hopes Zhang Xiu can have. Once Zhang Xiu really became a great Han''s Taiwei, and returned to the imperial court, Zhang Xiu''s power was not ordinary.


    Far more than Liu Biao, sun CE and Liu Zhang.


    Zhang Xiu heard that her eyes were bright and her mouth was filled with a faint smile. She said, "what about the second?"


    With a smile in his eyes, Jia Xu continued: "the second thing is to take this opportunity to ease the relationship with the emperor. Before that, the emperor arranged Kong Rong to go to Chang''an, and later to meet the Lord in Hongnong County, in order to ask for the production technology of Xuan paper. "


    "After the arrangement of the Lord, Kong Rong finally became the scapegoat. Although the emperor thought that Kong Rong was arrogant because of his favor, he failed to get Xuan paper. But the emperor''s impression of the Lord is certainly not good. "


    "When the LORD went to Xudu and saw the emperor, he could resolve this matter."


    "With my master''s eloquence, I don''t think it''s difficult to resolve this matter. Although the emperor is like a puppet, today''s Hanshi is still a big flag. "


    "My Lord, with the help of the banner of the Han Dynasty, when he conquers all the places, he will not go to any disadvantage. So even if the power of the emperor is weak, what should be taken advantage of must be taken advantage of and cannot be ignored. "


    "This is the second suggestion of humble position," Jia saidFor Zhang Xiu''s calculation of Kong Rong, Jia Xu got the news afterwards.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is not in Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu praised and said, "what is Wenhe''s saying? What''s the third point?"


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "third, the so-called emperor issued an imperial edict to go to Xudu to report on his duty. It''s the emperor''s order, but it''s not Cao Cao''s order."


    "The imperial edict issued by the imperial court can not be issued without the permission of Cao Cao. Today, although Cao Cao has defeated Yuan Shu, he has not exterminated Yuan Shu. "


    "Therefore, the most possible way for Cao Cao to go is for him to keep his head. In particular, Cao Cao''s strength gradually strengthened, and there was also a subtle friction between him and Yuan Shao. "


    "So I think that Cao Cao is more likely to have a good relationship with his Lord, and he can''t really fight with him," Jia said


    Li Ru said in a deep voice: "Jia Shangshu, what if Cao Cao wants to kill the Lord?"


    Jia Xu said again: "in fact, despite these three reasons, the emperor issued an imperial edict to call the LORD into the court. As a Sikong, Cao Cao should also protect the safety of his Lord. "


    "Because if the Lord makes any mistakes, he is likely to ask Cao Cao to carry the pot. Once the Lord has made a mistake, who would dare to accept the imperial edict to enter the court in the future. "


    "This man is afraid of death!"


    "What if they were killed?"


    Jia Xu said: "when it comes to Cao Cao''s credibility, he can''t kill the Lord. Moreover, the Lord is also Cao Cao''s son-in-law, who married Cao Jie. Under such a premise, there are so many reasons, the safety of the Lord is safe. "


    Tian Feng suddenly said, "Jia Shangshu, what if Cao Cao was imprisoned and didn''t kill him? King Huai of Chu and King Zhaoxiang of Qin met in Wuguan and were finally detained by King Qin. When the LORD goes to Xudu, if he is imprisoned by Cao Cao and does not kill him, what shall we do? "


    Once the words were uttered, they became sharp.


    If Cao Cao wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, it would be easy to solve the problem, and he could set up an army for revenge.


    Where does Cao Cao imprison Zhang Xiu?


    The atmosphere in the hall was stagnant, and everyone''s eyes fell on Jia Xu.


    Zhang Xiu also looks at Jia Xu and thinks in her heart. What he thought just now was not much different from that of Jia Xu. What he considered was that Cao Cao was unlikely to attack him.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not consider the situation that Cao Cao was imprisoned but not killed.

 Chapter 451

    Jia Xu had no stage fright in the face of people''s eyes, and he was calm. He dusted the folds of his front robe and said, "your worries are groundless."


    "The Lord is not imprisoned, even if he is imprisoned, there are three reasons to get out of trouble."


    "First, the Lord himself is a great master."


    "When Cao Cao didn''t dare to kill the Lord, he insisted on leaving. Who dares to stop him? Who can stop it. Unless it is besieged by a large army and attacked by a sea of people. "


    "But under such circumstances, the result must be the death of the Lord. Once the Lord died, the army under his command entered Yanzhou, and Cao Cao''s foundation was immediately threatened. "


    "Second, Xu Du has the power of the royal guards."


    "The power of the royal guards is everywhere, and the intelligence of the royal guards is extremely powerful. Under such circumstances, even if the Lord is in danger and is about to be imprisoned, relying on the royal guards is enough to save him. "


    "Third, before his departure, the Lord dispatched the fierce tiger army of Ganning to the border. And when the LORD goes to Xudu, he will be given two months at most. If the Lord has not returned for two months, the fierce tiger army will enter the first battle of Yanzhou. "


    "Lord Cao did not dare to know the news. Because today''s Cao Cao is not enough to fight with the Lord, because he did not even completely pacify Yuan Shao. Even in Xuzhou, Cao Cao has no control. "


    Jia Xu said: "everyone, although there are risks in this trip, in fact, the risks are limited. If there is no risk at all, how can the Lord get such great benefits? Risk and opportunity coexist. "


    After hearing this, Tian Feng nodded and said nothing more.


    He believes in the strength of the royal guards.


    You know, Tian Feng was originally in a cell, but he was finally rescued by the royal guards and sent out of the city under Yuan Shao''s eyes. Even if Yuan Shao set up checkpoints along the way, he did not stop Tian Feng, which shows the strength of the royal guards.


    Yang Xiuse said: "Lord, I agree with Jia Shangshu''s proposal."


    Some of them are against it, but others are for it.


    In the case of public debate, one by one''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    Specific, see Zhang Xiu decision.


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and threw her voice on the ground: "this time, the emperor has issued an imperial edict to call me to Beijing. I have decided to go. If you lose the chance now, it will be difficult to go to Xudu in the future. "


    "It is precisely when Cao Cao is not strong or weak that he has a chance to go."


    "If Cao Cao has the strength of Yuan Shao, he is not afraid of us. Once I go to Xudu, I will be detained. But now, Cao Cao can''t carry our attack, so for Cao Cao, he doesn''t want to fight with us. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said: "so, I want to go to Xudu."


    "Alas..."


    But Li Ru sighed.


    He didn''t want Zhang Xiu to be in danger. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was determined to go.


    Those who do not agree with Zhang Xiu are worried, but helpless. Because Zhang Xiu decided, they had no choice but to obey the order.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is the master.


    When the general direction is set, Zhang Xiu and others begin to discuss countermeasures to determine the situation of going to Xudu.


    All things are arranged properly, and Zhang Xiu waves everyone to step down.


    Everyone, get busy.


    Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard.


    Now Huang Yueying is getting pregnant and is approaching the time of giving birth. According to Zhang Xiu''s understanding, at most another month is the due date.


    It''s nearly ten months since October.


    According to Zhang Xiu''s idea, he wants to stay with Huang Yueying and wait for her to have a baby. It''s just that Zhang Xiu is really busy and has no time at all.


    All the princes in the world are striving for development.


    It''s all against the clock.


    Zhang Xiu can''t miss the present opportunity, once missed, there will be no opportunity. Because after the spring of next year, there will be more wars and more things to do.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Yueying and Cao Jie, said with a smile about the children for a while, and finally said: "next, I will go to Xudu."


    "Ah


    Huang Yueying heard the speech, and immediately exclaimed.


    She was a little worried about Zhang Xiu''s safety and asked, "what does my husband do when he goes to Xudu?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the emperor ordered me to report to Xu Du."


    As soon as Huang Yueying heard the emperor''s order, she suddenly withered. For Huang Yueying, the emperor is the biggest. After thinking about it, she said, "my husband, go to Xudu and take sister Cao with him. She is familiar with Xu Du''s situation. If she is there, she can also ask Cao Sikong for help by virtue of her sister''s relationship. "


    "No, I won''t go!"


    Cao Jie shook his head, said: "this time my husband to Xudu, I can stay in Chang''an."


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, is very unexpected.


    Cao Jie chose not to go back.


    You know, when Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu, he never went back to Xu Du.Zhang Xiu did not ask the reason, Huang Yueying said: "sister rarely return to Xudu, it is not easy to see the family, why not go back?"


    Cao Jie''s eyes sparkled with wisdom and said: "although I am the daughter of the Cao family, when I marry my husband, I am a member of the Zhang family."


    "I think of myself as my husband."


    "Although I miss my family as far away as Xudu, my father is likely to use me to house arrest my husband when I return to Xudu. At that time, my father can say that he wants to keep me and let me stay longer. "


    "So as to restrain my husband."


    "I am a burden to my husband."


    "My husband is more relaxed when I''m away."


    Cao Jie took a deep breath and said, "so this time, I won''t go back to Xudu."


    After a pause, Cao Jie began to smile again and said with a smile: "what''s more, today''s homes and restaurants have opened four branches, and customers are in an endless stream, and there are countless things to deal with every day. Even if there is a shopkeeper in charge of the arrangement, I am still needed. I can''t do without it. I have to stay. "


    After listening, Huang Yueying said nothing more.


    She didn''t have the wit of Cao Jie. At first, she didn''t think of Cao Jie''s consideration, but she put Zhang Xiu''s safety first. After listening to Cao Jie, she did not insist that Cao Jie accompany Zhang Xiu back.


    Zhang Xiu was also surprised at Cao Jie''s explanation, but he had to admit that Cao Jie''s consideration was comprehensive.


    In history, Liu Bei went to Jiangdong to marry sun Shangxiang. At the beginning, Sun Quan also borrowed sun Shangxiang to put Liu Bei under house arrest. But in the end, Liu Bei left Jiangdong, and since then the dragon has entered the sea.


    Without Cao Jie, Zhang Xiu would be better able to use her strategy.


    Instead of saying anything more, Zhang Xiu digs off the topic and talks about some interesting things, as well as some gifts for the emperor when she goes to Xudu.


    These gifts are extremely important.


    After all, it''s a visit to the emperor.


    Of course, there are some gifts for Cao Cao, because in addition to Zhang Xiu''s official position. Today''s Zhang Xiu is also Cao Cao''s son-in-law, and Cao Cao is equal to a family.


    The gift that should be prepared must be prepared.


    In the afternoon, Zhang Xiu accompanied Huang Yueying and Cao Jie in preparing gifts.

 Chapter 452

    Xu Du, Sikong mansion.


    Today, Cao Cao has returned from his class in Yangzhou. All his energy in this year was focused on the crusade against Yuan Shu. Fortunately, this year''s battle with Yuan Shu went smoothly and successfully defeated the main force of Yuan Shu.


    Even if Yuan Shu ran away, it would not be possible now. Cao Cao left his army in Yangzhou and continued to attack Yuan Shu in order to wipe out Yuan Shu''s remaining strength.


    Cao Cao himself withdrew Xu Du.


    In fact, when Cao Cao withdrew Xudu, it was nearly December. He knew that Zhang Xiu had a conflict with Yuan Shao in Hanoi, and he was very happy.


    If Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao go to war, if they are both defeated, they will benefit from each other.


    But Cao Cao had been looking forward to it, but he never started a war.


    Yuan Shao did not move, and Zhang Xiu did not continue to advance. In this case, the court, the emperor issued an imperial edict, called Zhang Xiu into the court.


    When Cao Cao got the news, he didn''t stop him, so the imperial edict was issued to Chang''an. Into January, the weather is still very cold, perhaps under heavy snow.


    In Cao Cao''s study.


    With anthracite burning for heating, dispelling the cold, making the room warm as spring.


    Wearing a single dress, Cao Cao is carefully reading the latest news of Zhang Xiu. According to the latest news, Zhang Xiu not only won Hanoi and Hongnong, but also Zuo Fengyi and Hedong.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength has been strengthened again.


    In particular, the growth rate is extremely fast.


    Even Cao Cao was surprised at the speed.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Footsteps came from outside, followed by a knock on the door. The door was pushed open, but Guo Jia strode in. He bowed his hand to Cao Cao and sat down.


    Cao Cao put aside the information he had sent back, and said, "fengxiao, this embroidery has absorbed Hongnong, Hanoi, Hedong and Zuo Fengyi in a short time. It''s not simple. His strength is several times stronger than when he fought with us at the beginning. "


    "That''s true," Guo said


    For Zhang Xiu, Guo Jiayue is pondering, the more deeply afraid.


    Guo Jiashen said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao killed Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Tian Feng and Zhang Yan in the first battle. It''s really not simple. Fortunately, Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao have a deep hatred. According to his humble position, although Yuan Shao has not sent troops now, there will be a war between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu in the spring of next year. At that time, they will lose both sides, that''s the best


    "I hope so!"


    Cao Cao nodded.


    "What''s the matter with fengxiao?" Cao Cao asked


    Guo Jia said: "it''s Zhang Xiu''s business."


    Cao Cao said, "what does it have to do with Zhang Xiu?"


    Guo Jia replied: "as for Zhang Xiu, he has already said that he would come to the central government to report on his work. Now, Zhang Xiu is on her way to Xudu. According to the latest information, Zhang xiudu entered Yanzhou and went to Xudu. "


    "Zhang Xiu killed huchuquan, cut off Fuluo, and killed the Huns."


    "Great contribution to the state."


    "Zhang Xiu killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and destroyed the Xiliang army that humiliated the emperor."


    "Great kindness to the emperor."


    "Zhang Xiu improved papermaking technology and produced white and smooth Xuan paper, which was widely used in the world. This is a cornucopia. No matter who it is, it''s coveted. "


    "The son of heaven is the golden mountain!"


    With a smile in his mouth, Guo Jia said, "our son of heaven, though intelligent, is snobbish and thoughtful. As soon as he gets the news that Zhang Xiu is going to arrive, he is ready to meet him in person. "


    "The emperor wants to welcome him in person!"


    "Only, it was rejected by the ministers in the court."


    "You know, at the beginning, the LORD saved the emperor from falling into the hands of Li Xi and Guo Si, but the emperor did not greet him personally. Now, the son of heaven wants to meet him in person. Where is he going


    Guo Jia said with a smile, "the emperor is dissuaded from going in person. So the emperor ordered that the Lord should go to the gate of Yecheng in person to welcome Zhang Xiu''s arrival. "


    When Cao Cao heard this, he also laughed.


    The emperor can make face.


    If the emperor wants to show his affection to Zhang Xiu, he will go out of the city to meet him.


    Cao Cao thought about it in his heart and said, "fengxiao, do you think my official will go out to meet Zhang Xiu?"


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu has made great contributions to the imperial court. As a Sikong, it''s not too much for him to go out of the city to meet her. The most important thing is that the emperor called Zhang Xiu to Xudu to report his work. In fact, he wanted Zhang Xiu to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. "


    "For the Lord, it''s a very good thing."


    "As long as Zhang Xiu gives up the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper, it''s too simple for us to get the paper-making technology from the emperor. At that time, we can also make rice paper. "


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu sells countless rice paper every year and makes countless profits. If we can make rice paper, the financial difficulties of the Lord will be alleviated. "Cao Cao said, "what filial piety says is true."


    Cao Cao is also greedy for Xuan paper.


    He fought for years, not only responsible for the army''s food and drink, but also responsible for the royal family and countless officials, the pressure is also great.


    Cao Cao said with a smile: "in this way, we have to help the emperor."


    "That''s what it is," Guo said


    Cao Cao''s eyes turned, and suddenly said: "to be filial, Zhang Xiu has a lot of courage. He knows that Xu Du is a tiger''s den, and he dares to report his work. If you were my official, you would not come to Xudu. After all, Xudu has risks. "


    Cao Cao said: "when Zhang Xiu arrives at Xudu, can you take the opportunity to imprison him so that he can''t return to Chang''an. Or, take the opportunity to hold Zhang Xiu, so that he can''t return to Chang''an. "


    "No!"


    Guo Jia immediately dissuaded him.


    The look on his face even changed greatly, and he said: "Lord, when Zhang Xiu entered Yanzhou, Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed at the border of Yanzhou. If we imprison Zhang Xiu, it is likely to cause disputes. "


    "It''s very bad for the Lord."


    "At this time, if Zhang Xiu is imprisoned or killed, the Lord will bear the blame and blame in vain, but let Yuan Shao pick up the cheap. Therefore, the Lord should not be unfavorable to Zhang Xiu. Instead, he should protect Zhang Xiu and ensure the normal confrontation between Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao. "


    "In addition, we annihilated the main force of Yuan Shu and stabilized the situation in Yangzhou and Yuzhou throughout last year, but in fact, we have not completely controlled these places."


    "Next, take control of these places."


    "In addition, the next overall situation of the Lord is Lu Bu, who is mainly engaged in Xuzhou."


    Guo Jia said in a hurry, "it''s not good for us that Lv Bu is in Xuzhou."


    "Before Liu Bei''s defeat in Xuzhou, although the Lord supported his troops, money and food, and let him return to Xiaopei, he may not be able to stop Lv Bu. The key is to rely on the Lord''s army to attack Lu Bu. "


    "Our focus next year is still not on Zhang Xiu. We must solve Lv Bu first."


    "Then we can plan Zhang Xiu or Yuan Shao."


    Guo Jia was worried about Cao Cao.


    Now, we can''t be impatient.


    Once eager for success, it may lead to the loss of the good situation just obtained.


    This can never be tolerated.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao sighed and said, "I will bear in mind the words of filial piety. Alas, this is a time of trouble. After Yuan Shu''s rebellion was put down, we had to attack Lu Bu. I wish I could annihilate all these people, wipe out the whole world, and return the people of the world a bright future, so that they will not suffer so many disasters. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Cao Cao said: "fengxiao, you send someone to return to the emperor, saying that our official promised to meet Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu arrives, our officials will personally lead hundreds of officials to greet her, so as to show the importance of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia answered, turned and left.

 Chapter 453

    Xu Du, in the city.


    In the barracks.


    Although Cao ang is Cao Cao''s son, he has never been given any preferential treatment. What he has achieved now is all his efforts.


    At the beginning, Cao ang was defeated by Zhang Xiu in Nanyang, and Cao Anmin fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands. Cao ang was ashamed.


    He wants revenge.


    So back in Xudu, Cao ang spent most of his time in the military camp. On the one hand, it is to temper their own martial arts, to make their own martial arts become stronger. On the other hand, it is to train soldiers and enhance their combat effectiveness.


    Cao ang was the only one in the army.


    He has his own soldiers.


    Cao ang was young, but he could eat and live with the soldiers. They all ate the food of the army and lived in the big tents of the army, so the soldiers were also convinced of Cao ang.


    Now, it''s freezing.


    Snow even floated in the sky, Cao ang was still training soldiers, never stopped.


    You can''t stop drinking and shouting.


    One by one, the soldiers practice vigorously.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from Cao ang.


    However, Cao Anmin came. He had already recovered and was a general in the army. He served as Deputy General of Cao ang and led the army with Cao ang. Cao Anmin was deeply impressed by the humiliation of being captured by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Anmin always wanted to avenge himself in his heart, so it was quite attentive to train soldiers with Cao ang.


    Cao Anmin''s martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds in this year.


    Most of the time, he would practice martial arts with Dianwei. Because under Cao Cao''s command, Dianwei is the first, which is the real top master. Cao Anmin''s strength is stronger and stronger under the honing of Dianwei.


    Cao ang saw that Cao Anmin was coming. He looked very dusty. He told the general of the army to lead the team to practice. Then he said, "Anmin, you are in a hurry. What can I do for you?"


    Cao Anmin said: "it''s about Zhang Xiu."


    Cao ang said, "what''s the news?"


    Cao Anmin replied, "there are two pieces of news. The first is that the emperor issued an imperial edict calling Zhang Xiu to work in Xudu. Now, Zhang Xiu has entered the territory of Yanzhou and is coming to Xudu. The second news is that Sikong has agreed to the emperor''s arrangement and will personally take all the officials to the gate of the city to meet Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao ang sighed: "Zhang Xiu is as old as us. But compared with Zhang Xiu, we are too weak. Zhang Xiu now controls the Sili area and Nanyang County, with countless troops. "


    "But you and I are still like this."


    "The two of us didn''t even make great contributions."


    "Even if he defeated Yuan Shu, he made some contributions. But compared with Zhang Xiu, they are far from each other. "


    Cao ang said: "Zhang Xiu''s killing Li Xi and Guo Si, Hu Chuquan and Yu Fuluo, one by one, are earth shaking events. We can''t compare with Zhang Xiu! "


    Cao Anmin smokes from the corner of his mouth,


    he comes to Cao ang, not to praise Zhang Xiu.


    He wants to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    At the beginning, he became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. He was picked up wantonly by Zhang Xiu, so that he was seriously injured. Now that Zhang Xiu has come to Xudu alone, Cao Anmin is ready to take revenge.


    Cao Anmin took Cao ang directly, went back to the camp and said, "young master, have you forgotten the humiliation of being defeated by Zhang Xiu and the words of being humiliated by Zhang Xiu?"


    It''s very direct.


    Cao Ang''s face suddenly cooled down. At the beginning of the battle with Zhang Xiu in Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu humiliated him in every way and humiliated him wantonly. Cao ang kept these things in mind.


    From beginning to end, never forget.


    He also wants revenge, but Zhang Xiu is more and more powerful, and he is still so.


    Revenge is getting harder and harder.


    In the end, Cao ang suppressed his inner thoughts and didn''t think about revenge. After all, he is the son of Cao Cao. He has to consider the overall situation of Cao Cao and can''t act recklessly.


    Cao ang took a deep breath and said, "an min, what do you mean?"


    Cao Anmin said: "young master, Zhang Xiu has come to Xudu now. This is our chance for revenge. Zhang Xiu is in danger alone. As long as we mobilize a few troops, we can kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "When Zhang Xiu dies, the Sili area under Zhang Xiu''s rule will be in chaos."


    "In this way, we can not only avenge ourselves, but also enter Sili area. As long as Sikong controls the Sili area, his strength will be greatly improved, at least to compete with Yuan Shao. "


    Cao Anmin said excitedly, "this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."


    After hearing this, Cao ang frowned deeply and said, "an min, you''d better stop thinking like this immediately. When Zhang Xiu comes to Xudu, no accident is allowed. "


    Cao Anmin gritted his teeth and said, "why, this is our best chance. If you miss this opportunity, it will be very difficult to get rid of Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao ang said in a deep voice: "first, the emperor ordered Zhang Xiu to come to Xudu to report his work.""If Zhang Xiu makes any mistakes in Xudu, his father, as a Sikong, will not be able to wash away his responsibility. For my father, he''s going to be under a lot of pressure. "


    "It''s not good for the big picture."


    "Second, if Zhang Xiu is not assassinated, it means falling out with him again. The war between the two sides will affect the father''s next arrangement. Although my father wants to wipe out Zhang Xiu in the end, it''s not now. "


    After all, Cao ang is more rational, he said in a deep voice: "in addition, Zhang Xiu is also my younger sister''s husband. All in all, Zhang Xiu and we are a family. Even if my father defeated Zhang Xiu in the future, I would suggest that my father keep Zhang Xiu alive. But as soon as you come up, you''re going to kill Zhang Xiu. Isn''t it right to let your little sister be a widow? "


    Cao Anmin was in a hurry.


    Cao ang has too many worries.


    If everything is according to Cao Ang''s consideration, there will be no revenge.


    Cao Anmin said, "you have too many worries. Sikong is a man who does great things. He won''t be imprisoned by his children''s private affairs. Moreover, Zhang Xiu is the enemy of Sikong. It''s the most cost-effective way to get rid of him. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Seeing that Cao Anmin didn''t listen to the advice, Cao ang got angry and yelled, "Anmin, I warn you, don''t do anything to Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, don''t blame me for being ruthless and not caring."


    Brush!


    Cao Anmin''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t expect that Cao ang would say such harsh words to him because of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Anmin said in a deep voice: "young master, all I said is for your sake. Don''t you want to take revenge, don''t you want to prove yourself again? "


    Cao Ang''s chin went up, his eyes were firm, and he said in a voice: "I think about revenge all the time. Every day I sleep, I can''t forget the scene of fighting with Zhang Xiu in Nanyang County. "


    "The first World War near Lushan is very impressive."


    "But I, Cao ang, want revenge, and I don''t want to use intrigue to defeat Zhang Xiu in the battlefield. How can a man do such dark things openly and aboveboard? "


    Cao Ang''s words, but let Cao Anmin''s heart, is not happy.


    "Dark?"


    Cao Anmin sneered: "Cao ang, you will regret it. You are too pedantic. "


    Cao ang said: "to pacify the people, there is no need to mention the assassination. I won''t agree to that. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Cao Anmin left in anger.


    Cao ang looked at Cao Anmin''s back, but he shook his head and sighed. He knew that Cao Anmin was kind-hearted and that Cao Anmin wanted to avenge himself, but when it came to the overall situation, Cao ang would not mess around.


    Cao Anmin, who left the camp, went back to his camp and his eyes changed again and again.


    He can''t let go of hatred.


    After the first battle of Nanyang County, he was captured by Zhang Xiu. It was like countless ants gnawing at Cao Anmin''s heart. If he doesn''t take revenge, he can''t make himself go through this hurdle.


    Revenge must be taken!


    This is Cao Anmin''s idea.


    Cao Anmin''s mind is turning, thinking about the strategy. When he pondered, he suddenly thought of a person. He is not alone with Zhang Xiu. He is not alone. He can find someone to deal with Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 454

    Xu Du, in the imperial city.


    One year later, the emperor Liu Xie was one year older. Unfortunately, year by year rotation, he grew up year by year, is still a puppet without real power, still living a precarious life.


    His life and death are still beyond his control.


    This is the last thing Liu Xie likes.


    Before that, Liu Xie had been reported by Dong Cheng and Fu Wan that Zhang Xiu was willing to join the court to report on her work, which made Liu Xie extremely happy. As long as Zhang Xiu is willing to enter the court to report his work, he will have a chance to ask Zhang Xiu for the manufacturing technology of papermaking.


    There is still a chance.


    Today''s Liu Xie does not worry about food and clothing, and even has some money in the palace, but these money are pitiful. He can only meet the expenses of the palace, and can''t have the rest. Liu Xie wanted to form an army and recruit soldiers. He had no extra money. Although Liu Xie doesn''t need any money, he is almost out of money.


    Zhang Xiu is a very important thing for Liu Xie.


    In the palace, in the side hall.


    Dong Cheng and Fu WAN are both here. They are discussing with Liu Xie how to receive Zhang Xiu and how to reward her. If we want Zhang Xiu to honestly hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper, we must give enough benefits.


    After discussing various matters, Dong Cheng said: "the current situation has been taken into consideration. But in fact, there''s one thing that hasn''t been dealt with properly. "


    Liu Xie said, "what''s the matter?"


    Dong Cheng replied, "it''s about Kong Rong."


    Liu Xie asked, "Dong Qing, what''s the matter with Kong Rong?"


    Dong Cheng replied: "did your majesty forget that Kong Rong went to see Zhang Xiu at the order of your majesty, hoping that Zhang Xiu would give away the manufacturing technology of rice paper, but he was strict and self righteous."


    "So I offended Zhang Xiu and came back in a mess."


    "Although Zhang Xiu has come to report her work, once it comes to Xuan paper, she can''t get past Kong Rong. So I''m afraid we have to deal with this. If we don''t handle this matter well, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will have a knot in her heart. "


    Dong Cheng put forward the problem.


    Liu Xie raised his eyebrows and said, "should we reprimand Kong Rong?"


    "Not enough!"


    Dong Cheng shook his head and said, "if it''s just a reprimand, Zhang Xiu may think you''re shielding Kong Rong. Further, it may lead Zhang Xiu to think that his majesty wants to take it by surprise. Now that his majesty is weak, we can only lower our posture and let Zhang Xiu sympathize with his Majesty''s situation, and then offer the manufacturing technology of rice paper to support his majesty. "


    Fu Wan praised: "general Dong has a point. If your majesty wants to get the manufacturing technology of rice paper, he must pay something."


    Liu Xie said, "well, what should we do?"


    Dong Cheng said: "when Zhang Xiu arrives, let Kong Rong go to apologize in person."


    After hearing this, Liu Xie frowned slightly.


    Although Liu Xie is young, he is not a fool, and he is also good at politics.


    Liu Xie knows that Kong Rong is a well-known man, and what he cares about most is his reputation. If Kong Rong is ordered to apologize, it is tantamount to putting Kong Rong''s arrogance into practice, and it is tantamount to insulting him again.


    It''s embarrassing.


    Liu Xie said: "let Kong Rong apologize, I''m afraid it''s equivalent to punching Kong Rong''s face!"


    Dong Cheng raised his head and said, "it''s worth giving up Kong Rong''s face for the sake of the rejuvenation of the Great Han Dynasty."


    After hearing Dong Cheng''s words, Liu Xie thought about it for a while, and finally made a decision. He said, "well, that''s it. It''s up to Dong Qing to tell us about this. "


    "Here it is


    Dong Cheng responded directly.


    Liu Xie no longer said much. After all, there was nothing left. He waved his hand to let Fu Wan and Dong Cheng retire.


    After Fu Wan and Dong Cheng stepped down, they walked out of the hall together. Fu Wan said, "general Dong, Kong Rong cares about face most. Do you think he will apologize to Zhang Xiu after receiving His Majesty''s order? "


    "It should be!"


    Dong Cheng said: "after all, it''s your Majesty''s edict. Does Kong Rong dare to disobey it?"


    Fu Wan said: "that''s true!"


    After a pause, Fu Wan said, "Your Majesty asked you to do this. When you see Kong Rong, you should be as gentle as possible. Don''t irritate Kong Rong. After all, he is a famous man. It is useful for him to wave the flag and shout for his majesty. "


    "I see!"


    Dong Cheng nodded and turned to leave.


    Out of the Imperial City, Dong Cheng boarded the carriage and went straight to Kong Rong''s residence. Entering Kong Rong''s house, Dong Cheng meets Kong Rong in the hall and tells about Zhang Xiu''s coming to Xu du to report his work.


    Kong Rong hated Zhang Xiu to the bone.


    He was schemed by Zhang Xiu, lost his reputation, and was abandoned by the emperor. During this period, Kong Rong''s life was quite difficult. This is not a financial problem. He has a salary every month and doesn''t worry about food and clothing. However, everyone says that Kong Rong went to Guanzhong to meet Zhang Xiu and put on airs, which made Zhang Xiu angry.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu was arrogant and didn''t cooperate at all. However, under the influence of the public, Kong Rong could not explain.


    This led to a sharp decline in Kong Rong''s reputation.


    Even this led to Kong Rong''s anger.Now it''s mentioned that Zhang Xiu has come to report his work. As soon as Kong Rong hears about it, he is not angry. He looked serious and said in a deep voice: "general Dong, you know I have a grudge against Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu comes to report on her work, don''t look for me. "


    Dong Cheng said: "you are indispensable!"


    Kong Rong said: "why?"


    Dong Cheng replied: "the last time you asked Zhang Xiu to give away rice paper, it was you who caused the failure. Zhang Xiu must have complained to her majesty and you. To solve the problem, you need the person who tied the bell. When Zhang Xiu comes to report on her work, you must apologize to Zhang Xiu in person to resolve Zhang Xiu''s inner pimples. This is your Majesty''s order, not to discuss with you, but to carry it out. "


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face changed greatly.


    To make him apologize to Zhang Xiu is to step on his back and hit him in the face.


    Kong Rong said, "general Dong, I will not apologize."


    Dong Chengchen said: "Kong Rong, are you not loyal to your majesty? Since you are your Majesty''s loyal minister, now your majesty is in trouble, you just apologize. What''s the difficulty


    Kong Rong''s face twitched and his expression changed again and again.


    Loyal minister!


    Should loyal officials be humiliated?


    Kong Rong''s heart, incomparable suffering.


    He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "go back and tell your majesty that I Kong Rong will apologize to Zhang Xiu."


    "Good!"


    With a smile on his face, Dong Cheng said, "that''s right, brother Kong. After you apologized to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was very happy and would present the manufacturing technology of rice paper to the Lord. We have earned money and recruited soldiers. Your majesty has swept away the undeserving officials and revived the Han Dynasty. At that time, you will be the meritorious Minister of reviving the Han Dynasty. "


    Kong Rong laughs.


    I don''t know how many roads to take to revive the Han Dynasty.


    Kong Rong has no heart to talk with Dong Cheng. After two words, he waves his hand to send Dong Cheng away.


    Looking at Dong Cheng''s back, he murmured to himself, "if you look at him like a hand or a foot, then he looks at him like a heart; if you look at him like a dog or a horse, then he looks at him like a Chinese; if you look at him like grass or mustard, then he looks at him like a foe."


    "Your Majesty, your majesty, you don''t treat Kong Rong as a person and insult him wantonly. But I, Kong Rong, am still willing to be loyal to you. I will apologize to Zhang Xiu."


    "After that, Kong Rong is no longer what he used to be."


    "The son of heaven is not benevolent, loyal officials do not exist!"


    In the words, there is endless sadness.


    Kong Rong was born in Qingliu and was a famous scholar in the world. Although he is proud, he always claims to be loyal to the emperor. But here in the emperor, he did not get the slightest respect, on the contrary, he suffered countless harsh criticism, and even in order to please Zhang Xiu, the emperor wanted to humiliate him.


    This kind of emperor let Kong Rong down.

 Chapter 455

    In Xudu in January, it snowed heavily. Inside and outside the capital, Xu was shrouded in a vast expanse of white. Inside and outside the city, the silver is wrapped in plain clothes. It looks unique and spectacular.


    In late January, Zhang Xiu arrived.


    Starting from Chang''an, although it is snowing heavily, Zhang Xiu is on her way as fast as possible. Because after he was sent to Xudu, he had to return to Chang''an early to deal with the possible war.


    When Zhang Xiu came to Xudu this time, he was surrounded by Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan, as well as a group of retinues. There were no more soldiers to accompany him.


    This lineup, already not weak.


    Zhang Xiu''s own strength alone is already the top military general. Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan are all first-class experts, who are enough to coordinate Zhang Xiu''s action.


    When Zhang Xiu entered Xudu, her mood was a little complicated.


    He came to Xudu again.


    He used to come as a loser. Once he was obedient to Cao Cao, and his military power was handed over. His counselors turned to Cao Cao. He was depressed and became a caged bird.


    Now, he''s here again.


    This time, he came with dignity.


    He was ordered by the emperor to report on his work. He is the famous Zhang Xiu, the one who killed Li Guo and Si, and the one who killed Hu Chuquan and Yu Fuluo. His reputation has spread all over the world.


    This time, he came as a winner.


    When Zhang Xiu was close to Xudu City, she looked at the towering tower with a smile on her face.


    Here we are!


    Here we are again!


    Although it was snowing heavily in the air, it didn''t affect Zhang Xiu''s sight. His eyes fell on the gate of Xudu, and he saw Cao Cao standing at the gate for a long time, as well as a number of officials in the court.


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rises, evoking a brilliant radian.


    Welcome Cao Cao!


    This is what Zhang Xiu should have now.


    Zhang Xiu slowed down, patted her crotch gently to chase the wind, and drove her horse forward. When it was less than 15 Zhang away from the gate of the city, Zhang Xiu saw that Cao Cao had come out in person and had already walked in his direction.


    According to Zhang Xiu''s temperament, he can even ride on a horse and wait for Cao Cao to come.


    However, there are civil and military officials here.


    Although Zhang Xiu looked down on Liu Xie in her heart, she even wanted to compete with the rest of the world. But at the moment, Zhang Xiu is still the Minister of the Great Han Dynasty. He also turns over and gets off the horse and leads Zhuifeng forward.


    Soon, the two sides met.


    Zhang Xiu face with a faint smile, after seeing Cao Cao, arched his hand and said: "next officer Zhang Xiu, see Sikong."


    Cao Cao said hastily: "General Zhang has worked hard all the way through mountains and rivers."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "I have been summoned by your majesty to report my work. I feel very excited. As a military officer, I am very lucky to be favored by your majesty. This way, although the weather is cold, but I am also quick to come. But it''s very cold. Is your majesty all right? "


    "Good, good!"


    Cao Cao''s cheek took a puff and replied with a smile rather than a smile.


    He had a hand in hand with Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao asked himself countless readers. He didn''t believe that Zhang Xiu would care about Liu Xie''s health. The reason why Zhang Xiu said this is nothing more than hypocrisy. She deliberately showed her respect for Liu Xie in front of all the civil and military officials.


    Cao Cao leaned over and looked at Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and other loyal officials of the Han Dynasty.


    These people are very satisfied with Zhang Xiu.


    "This little fox, he does everything without leaking."


    Cao Cao''s heart, secretly abdominal Fei.


    As a person who has dealt with Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao knows Zhang Xiu''s cunning, so he judges the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    However, Cao Cao could not find out.


    Cao Cao continued: "Your Majesty is also very concerned about General Zhang. Now that you have arrived in Xudu, you should serve your majesty well."


    "So be it!"


    Zhang Xiu answered with a determined look.


    That serious and sincere look, very deceptive. It gives people the feeling that Zhang Xiu is a loyal and honest person, which gives people a sense of trust.


    Cao Cao secretly told Zhang Xiu that he didn''t want to leave his hand. He didn''t say much. He waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty has been waiting in the palace. General Zhang, follow me to court!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Sikong, please!"


    "Please


    Cao Cao waved his hand and walked ahead.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Fu Wan''s body and waved: "Lord Fu, please!"


    It''s a shock.


    Zhang Xiu recognized him at a glance. Although Fu Wan had never seen Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu could recognize him. For Fu Wan, it was also very shameful.


    Especially Zhang Xiu asked him to invite him first, which made Fu Wan feel better.


    Kong Rong said that Zhang Xiu was rebellious.


    Do you have any?


    He didn''t feel it.


    "Please


    Fu Wan answered with a smile, and then walked ahead first.Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Dong Cheng again. She said with a smile, "general Dong Cheng, please!"


    "General Zhang, please!"


    Dong Chengben was born in the Xiliang army. He knew Zhang Xiu and had seen the domineering Zhang Xiu. Today''s Zhang Xiu looks like a modest gentleman, polite and chaste. Even Dong Cheng is surprised.


    But Dong Cheng didn''t show it.


    In her first life, Zhang Xiu was obedient to Cao Cao, so she knew the people in the court. One by one, he let the important ministers of the court go first, and finally fell on Yang Biao. He said with a smile, "Yang Gong, it''s freezing. You should take care of yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu really respects Yang Biao.


    To Fu Wan and Dong Cheng is just perfunctory.


    Yang Biao was Yang Xiu''s father and indeed a loyal leader of the court. It''s just that Yang Biao today, most of the time, ignores political affairs. He had been put into prison by Cao Cao before, but now he has a casual job because of his official worship.


    Yang Biao has known all kinds of things about Zhang Xiu through Yang Xiu. He agrees with his son''s becoming an official, and he also admires Zhang Xiu''s actions. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s killing of Xiongnu shows the power of the Han people.


    Yang Biao replied, "thank you, general Zhang. I will pay attention to it."


    Yang Biao didn''t say anything superfluous.


    It''s not suitable to talk about Yang Xiu on this occasion.


    Zhang Xiu beckoned Yang Biao to go ahead, and her eyes fell on Sima Fang not far away. Today''s Sima Fang, although he was an official in the court, did not show his official position, so Zhang Xiu just nodded, did not come forward to say hello.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu just stepped into the city.


    Only when Zhang Xiu entered the city, her eyes fell on Kong Rong. He saw Kong Rong with a smile in his mouth, but he did not look at Zhang Xiu.


    As Zhang Xiu walked, she looked at him.


    At present, not everyone under Cao Cao is friendly to him. Especially when Cao Anmin and Yu Jin look at Zhang Xiu, the coldness in their eyes is that they want to eat Zhang Xiu.


    To this, Zhang Xiu does not care.


    Cao Anmin is not worth mentioning.


    Yu Jin is also a defeated general.


    After entering the city with Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu went straight to the palace and finally entered the imperial city. Enter the hall, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on the top of the main position, see Liu Xie.


    He is no stranger to Liu Xie.


    In his last life, he met Liu Xie.


    In Zhang Xiu''s heart, he actually despises Liu Xie. Because Liu Xie is selfish and cowardly. But at the moment, Zhang Xiu''s heart did not reveal the slightest.


    After Zhang Xiu stood still, she bowed her hand and said, "I''d like to meet your majesty, Zhang Xiu. Your majesty, long live, long live


    In a word, it made people look sideways.


    Long live, long live!


    Where does this begin?


    It is said that the ministers in the court have not met the emperor like this.


    Zhang Xiu heard the uproar in the hall, also heard the voice of discussion, but the corner of her mouth raised a smile. He didn''t care about the attitude of the people. He came to Xudu to make the little emperor happy and to create an image of him loyal to the emperor.


    This is good for Zhang Xiu to act in the future!


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    Mouth said a few words of things, Zhang Xiu did not care about, directly on the mouth.

 Chapter 456

    When Cao Cao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he couldn''t help laughing. But more, it is the cunning of Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiuyi arrived at the gate of Xudu City, he showed all kinds of respect and praise to the people loyal to the emperor''s family, which made the courtiers have a very good impression of Zhang Xiu.


    Especially those who were loyal to the emperor were mostly gentry and scholars. These people mastered the public opinion. They had a good impression of Zhang Xiu and established the image of Zhang Xiu as a loyal king.


    Zhang Xiu is a loyal minister.


    On the other hand, Cao Cao''s people have mastered all kinds of important official positions, which is enough to hold the emperor aloft. However, under Cao Cao''s command, there were few real Qingliu scholars, few of them waving flags and shouting for Cao Cao.


    Just so, later Cao Cao became a thief.


    Because scholars are against Cao Cao.


    Now, Zhang Xiu opens her mouth again, shouting long live. Although Zhang Xiu''s action is suspected of flattering, the effect is immediate, which makes many celebrities satisfied with Zhang Xiu''s posture.


    As a Sikong, Cao Cao did not regard the emperor in his eyes.


    But Zhang Xiu is respectful to the emperor.


    This makes a contrast.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s intention, Cao Cao knows that Zhang Xiu is deliberately being obedient, and that he is deliberately astringent. But Liu Xie can''t see it. He is even more satisfied with Zhang Xiu''s success.


    Liu Xie leaned forward slightly and praised: "Zhang Qing is a dignified and talented man. He is a loyal minister of the country and has made great contributions to the country by destroying Li Xi and Guo Si and killing Xiongnu. If there is Zhang Qing in the court, I will not worry! "


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face changed slightly.


    The little emperor''s words were tantamount to hitting him in the face. In the words, Zhang Xiu is elevated, but it alludes to Cao Cao.


    In fact, this is a provocative plan.


    Cao Cao saw the intention of the little emperor, but he said with a smile: "Your Majesty is right. General Zhang is a rare talent with both civil and military skills. If your majesty wants to keep general Zhang in the court, it''s better to issue an imperial edict to let general Zhang stay. I have no opinion with Cao Cao. "


    Liu Xie smiles.


    It must be impossible for Zhang Xiu to stay.


    Even if Liu Xie issued an imperial edict, Zhang Xiu would not stay in Xudu. After all, Zhang Xiu was in charge of Sili area.


    Liu Xie is clear about this.


    His original intention is to stir up the relationship between Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu. I didn''t expect that Cao Cao would come back with a word.


    Zhang Xiu took over the words and said, "Your Majesty values it. Zhang Xiu can''t help but be happy. But I''m not good at governing the country. However, your majesty has issued an edict. Even if Zhang Xiu is at the end of the world, he will call her back. "


    "Good!"


    Liu Xie gave a good cry.


    In his eyes, Cao Cao sneered. Zhang Xiu is totally fooling the little emperor.


    The call of bullshit will come back.


    Zhang Xiu has always been the first interest, there is not enough interest, you see Zhang Xiu back.


    However, Cao Cao did not break Zhang Xiu''s words. As long as Zhang Xiu is not involved in him, Cao Cao will turn a blind eye, because under the current situation, he wants to watch Liu Xie Mou seize the manufacturing technology of Zhang Xiu Xuan paper.


    Today, Cao Cao only needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.


    Others, don''t care.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the little emperor''s happy appearance, but she shakes her head in her heart.


    It''s the little emperor after all.


    It''s children after all!


    In other words, Liu Xie has always been a puppet. What he lacks most is the army. Hearing that Zhang Xiu said that she would return when she was called, she was very excited and felt that Zhang Xiu was a loyal minister.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Your Majesty, although I''m in a hurry, I''ve been given a small gift. Please accept it."


    Liu Xie had an excellent impression of Zhang Xiu.


    On hearing that Zhang Xiu still had a gift to send, her face was even more excited. She said with a straight face, "Ai Qing has a heart. I don''t know what gift Ai Qing has brought to me when she comes to Xudu this time."


    Liu Xie''s heart even has expectations.


    What if it''s Xuan paper?


    In Liu Xie''s heart, he has been looking forward to it. It would be perfect if Zhang Xiu could provide the paper making technology of Xuan paper.


    Zhang xiujunyi''s face, solemn, not impatient, said: "the humble gift, has been delivered to the outside of the imperial city. I beg your Majesty''s permission to let the soldiers carry the gifts into the hall. "


    "Sure!"


    Liu Xie big sleeve a brush, directly agree.


    At this moment, everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    They are looking forward to the gift.


    In other words, is looking forward to what gift Zhang Xiu will send.


    With Liu Xie''s orders, it was not long before soldiers entered with five large boxes. Every big box, half a person''s height, is extremely heavy.


    These boxes, which were carried by carriages, were gifts prepared by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu has money, but not money.


    He''s not a money spinner.


    Even if he meets the emperor, he won''t give his money to charity.


    Zhang Xiu went to the first big box and opened it. There were volumes of books in it. They were all bound and neatly placed in the box. Immediately after that, Zhang Xiu opened the second box, which was still a volume of books.When the two boxes were opened, Zhang Xiu arched her hand and said, "Your Majesty, among these two boxes are Xuan paper made by ministers and above, and all kinds of books and historical materials are handed down classics."


    "Once upon a time, Luoyang became a fire. The numerous ancient books in Dongguan were scattered, and Wei ordered people to collect them everywhere, and then copy them all to the books. "


    "The books in the two big boxes are worth a million words and countless bamboo slips."


    Zhang Xiu said: "and the books here can be preserved for a long time. These classics are priceless. After the officials copied it, they sent it to the imperial court


    After hearing this, Liu Xie frowned and didn''t like the so-called classic books at all.


    It''s not worth it.


    He didn''t like such a gift.


    But Liu Xie doesn''t like it, which doesn''t mean that the senior officials in the court don''t like it. In particular, Yang Biao, Fu Wan, Sima Fang and others are all great Confucians and scholars. When Zhang Xiu collected many copies of Dongguan''s Classics, they were all excited.


    This is a priceless treasure for those in the clean stream.


    So when they looked at Zhang Xiu one by one, there was a look of gratitude in their eyes.


    Zhang Xiu noticed the little emperor''s manner, knew that the little emperor did not like, but Zhang Xiu did not pay attention. The two boxes of books he was given were not to please the little emperor, but to attract the Qingliu scholars in the court.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    His intention has never been the little emperor.


    Zhang Xiu went to the third and fourth big box and opened it again, revealing the dark coal stone inside, which were all the superior anthracite selected by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, this is the coal stone mined from Lushan Mountain under the rule of minister. It''s smokeless, tasteless and nontoxic, and it''s very effective in expelling cold. It''s cold in winter. I''d like to take this coal and stone to express my heart. Please accept it. "


    "Zhang Qing has a heart."


    Liu Xie answered with a smile.


    The look on his face was wilting. He couldn''t get up with the excitement he had just had.


    Because Zhang Xiu didn''t come up with what he wanted.


    Cao Cao saw Liu Xie''s expression in his eyes, and his heart was full of joy. The little emperor often suppressed him with great righteousness. Although the little emperor did not dare to fight with Cao Cao openly, he often wanted to express his ideas.


    This is what Cao Cao does not like.


    Today, the little emperor often eat shriveled, Cao Cao see happy.


    Cao Cao knows that Zhang Xiu is an Iron Rooster. Such people, how can they give good things to Liu Xie.


    It''s just perfunctory.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care about Liu Xie''s mind, once again opened the fifth box.


    This is the last bite.

 Chapter 457

    When Zhang Xiu opened the box, Liu Xie''s neck was almost expended, almost like a giraffe. If this box is not made of rice paper, it will not work.


    After Zhang Xiu opened the box, she carefully took out two pots.


    The two pots are quite large, similar to casseroles, and they are sealed. Both pots can cook food directly, and the contents are all food. One pot is filled with pig''s hoof soup, and the other pot is filled with stewed pig''s elbow.


    Under the two pots, there is also some pork.


    Today''s frozen pig''s hoof soup, whether it''s frozen in heaven or earth, is big.


    Even pork, it''s freezing stiff.


    After all, it''s cold, not hot.


    Zhang Xiu took out two pots and said, "when I was in Chang''an, I was worried about your Majesty''s food. Of these two pots, the most delicious food of the chef under Chen''s command can be called a delicacy. "


    Brush!


    Liu Xie''s expression changed again and again.


    He looked like a mosquito, constipated.


    But, he really can''t refuse Zhang Xiu, the reason is very simple, he didn''t get Zhang Xiu Xuan paper papermaking technology before, have to treat Zhang Xiu. Moreover, Zhang Xiu has an army in hand, he can''t refuse Zhang Xiu.


    Even if Liu Xie was not happy, he still said, "Zhang Qing has a heart!"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    At this time, some of the officials came forward with a look of laughter.


    It is Yu Jin who stands out.


    As a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, Yu Jin is full of hatred for her. Want to kill Zhang Xiu, as long as Zhang Xiu died, he suffered humiliation, can completely disappear.


    Cao Cao frowned slightly when he came out.


    He didn''t expect that Yu Jin would come out.


    However, Yu Jin had already stood up and Cao Cao could not stop it. He could only wait and see the change.


    After Yu ban laughed, he said: "General Zhang, I''m a glutton. I like delicious food. Although you say it''s for your Majesty''s good, in fact, there are countless cooks in this imperial city, and their standards are the best. "


    "In particular, in order to let his majesty eat well, Sikong searched for the chef."


    "The cook in your Majesty''s imperial dining room is absolutely the best. The food you bring out can only make people laugh. In front of all the civil and military officials, it''s hard for you to be an elegant gift. "


    Yu ban attacked directly.


    There''s no reason to keep attacking.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose.


    Yu Jin''s appearance is that after being captured, he has not been severely cleaned up, so he still dares to come out and pick things up.


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid of trouble.


    In front of the civil and military officials, Yu Jin wants to wipe his face and humiliate him. Zhang Xiu never agrees. Zhang Xiu has absolute confidence in the pig''s hoof soup and elbow she sent.


    This is a popular food in Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and said, "General Yu doesn''t believe it. Then, how about we make a bet?"


    Yu Jin said: "how to bet?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "just bet that the food in my two pots is the most delicious food. If my food doesn''t taste good, I''ll go back three feet when I see you. But if it''s a delicacy in a pottery pot, how about you apologize to me and step back three feet when you see me in front of all the civil and military officials


    After hearing this, Yu Jin raised his eyebrows.


    The bet is a little big.


    In particular, this is in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.


    Zhang Xiu is not weak. Someone has already called on her and continued: "how can general Yu dare to stand up to ridicule and question? He doesn''t even have the courage to bet? If you firmly believe that you are right, why are you afraid of gambling? If you can''t believe your own judgment, you shouldn''t stand up in front of civil and military officials. "


    "You..."


    Yu Jin was rejected by Zhang Xiu.


    On the lips, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Even if more than a few Yu Jin, Zhang Xiu is also against.


    "Well, I bet!"


    Yu Jin clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, "it''s just the taste of the soup. How can we judge it?"


    "Isn''t that easy?"


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a loud voice: "to judge whether Ben Jiang''s food is good or not, you and I don''t need to judge, because justice is in the heart of the people. It''s big enough, there''s enough food in it, and a small bowl for one person is enough. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "give the food to the princes in the court. In terms of the number of people, as long as there are many delicious people, you will lose. If we say that there are few delicious people, we will lose. General Yu, what do you think? "


    "OK, no problem!"


    Yu Jin clenched his teeth and answered directly.


    He doesn''t believe how delicious the food brought by Zhang Xiu can be.


    Yu Jin also often goes to Sikong''s house for dinner. The cook in Cao Cao''s house is good and the food is delicious. He didn''t believe how delicious the food Zhang Xiu brought.Zhang Xiu said, "please arrange for your majesty to bring us a brazier. The food in the pot can be eaten after boiling."


    "Good!"


    Liu Xie nodded.


    Immediately, Liu Xie arranged to go on.


    Liu Xie is happy to see the success of the fight between Zhang Xiu and Yu Jin. Liu Xie is hostile to Cao Cao''s civil servants and military generals, because these people are on Cao Cao''s side, not Liu Xie''s people. Liu Xie''s heart is happy to let these people suffer.


    After a while, the soldiers carried the fire basin in.


    Zhang Xiu carefully put two pots on the brazier. As the coal and stone were thrown in, the fire soon began to burn, and the turbulent heat burned the bottom of the pot.


    As the heat increased, the frozen soup began to melt.


    It is full of meat aroma.


    The fragrance lingers in the main hall, keeps climbing, and spreads to everyone''s taste buds. In particular, the flavor of the stewed elbow has been completely integrated into the flavor.


    Cao Cao is a glutton. After smelling the taste, he shook his head twice, stood up and walked to the pot, sighing: "although he hasn''t tasted it yet, it''s really unusual. Wonderful! It''s wonderful! Now, I want to taste it. "


    He didn''t take care of it.


    Because he won''t give Yu Jin a platform just because Yu Jin stands up.


    It is not Cao Cao''s intention to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    So Cao Cao came forward.


    At this moment, Yu Jin''s face changed slightly.


    Regardless of Cao Cao''s attitude, Yu Jin only smelled the smell, but also felt that his tongue was moving. At this moment, Yu Jin was in a panic.


    What to do?


    What will he do if he loses?


    Yu Jin thought of apologizing to Zhang Xiu in front of civil and military officials. What''s his face? Especially when I saw Zhang Xiu later, I had to step back three feet, which was even more flustered in my heart.


    It''s not too forbidden, it''s not shown, at least not to the end.


    Yu Jin can only expect that he will win in the end.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Sikong, after boiling, you can eat it."


    With the burning of the fire, the strong fragrance becomes more and more strong. Even Liu Xie, who was sitting at the top of the main hall, had a big mouth movement. At this time, he seemed to feel hungry and wanted to eat.


    Gollum! Gollum!


    The two pots began to boil.


    It''s full of fragrance.


    The color of the elbow is golden, while the color of the pig''s hoof soup is white as snow. Two different colors complement each other.


    It''s been a lot of talk.


    Zhang Xiu noticed the people''s postures, and a smile rose from the corner of her mouth. He asked the waiter to bring each bowl and dish, then took out a quick elbow, put it in each bowl and dish, and took a spoon to scoop the soup on it.


    In a flash, the fragrance overflowed.


    Golden meat, fat but not greasy, trembling, but also let the tongue move.


    After dividing the elbows in the pottery pot, Zhang Xiu waved, and soldiers came in and handed all the elbows to every official in the court.

 Chapter 458

    Every dish has soup and meat. The meat is delicate, smooth and tender, fat but not greasy, and has no smell of mutton. When Cao Cao got the chopsticks in his hand and took a bite, he felt the enjoyment of taste buds with his eyebrows shaking.


    After three or two mouthfuls, Cao Cao said with a smile: "General Zhang, I''ve finished this mouthful, and I haven''t felt the taste yet. Come on, come on, give me a little more. "


    There was a look of impatience on his face.


    Delicious!


    It''s delicious!


    Cao Cao did not expect that the meat was so delicious.


    It should only be in the sky!


    This is the adjective that Cao Cao thought of.


    Cao Cao longed for Zhang Xiu, but there was no meat in the pot, only some soup left. Zhang Xiu shrugged, said: "Sikong, the meat is gone, only a little soup."


    "Ah


    With a look of regret, Cao Cao said, "it''s a pity. Come on, give me the soup. Give me the rest of the soup. "


    Zhang Xiu took the bowl and gave the soup to Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao looked at the thick soup in the bowl and took a sip. After the fragrant taste bloomed in the taste buds, the whole person was comfortable. Especially on this cold day, after a mouthful of hot soup, I feel comfortable all over.


    "Yummy, yummy!"


    Sitting right above the main hall, Liu Xie''s eyes also shine.


    As the son of heaven, he always eats delicacies, but when he eats the elbow brought by Zhang Xiu, he is already immersed in it, and his face is full of joy. But after he took three or two stutters, he looked around and saw that all the officials around him, with big eyes and small eyes, looked unsatisfied and ate up.


    One by one, they were hanging in the air.


    I haven''t had enough!


    In fact, under Cao Cao''s command, the high-ranking officials seldom eat pork, and basically no one eats it. For most people, the meat is mutton, and a small number of beef, as well as the rest of the chicken, duck and fish.


    Although these meats are good, they are not as good as pork. They are not greasy, tender or soft. For those who really lack meat and oil, the lard can be eaten.


    None of the Manchurian princes here has ever eaten such pork. A full of greasy pork to eat, and fat but not greasy, a heart, are extremely happy.


    Liu Xie said, "Zhang Qing, no more?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "in addition to the dish just now, there''s another dish to be served." Immediately, Zhang Xiu began to ask the soldiers to take the bowl again and ladle soup for a person.


    In each bowl of soup, there are two pig''s feet. The soup is milky white. At a glance, there are light oil beads on the soup noodles, which are very eye-friendly and comfortable.


    When the soup comes out, a pot of pig''s hoof soup will come to the bottom, and there is no more left.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and the servant Yu Guan handed all the soup to the officials.


    Everyone looked at the Milky soup and tasted it first. When the full-bodied and fragrant soup enters the mouth, the fragrance is diffused, especially after the hot soup, the whole person is very comfortable, as if he is on the air.


    The pig''s hoof meat in the bowl has already been stewed so soft that it will melt at a sip.


    Many of the officials in the court are old and have bad teeth. But whether it''s the elbow or the pig''s hoof stewed now, it''s not affected at all. If you sip it in your mouth, it''s easy to eat it.


    The taste is even more comfortable


    all people admire it. After a while, everyone eats it.


    "Alas, it''s a pity that there is no more!"


    Liu Xie once again felt that the food he ate in his life was not as good as the two dishes he ate today.


    Cao Cao was curious and asked, "General Zhang, what kind of meat is this made of? The meat is tender and has no taste. It''s really delicious. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "this is pork!"


    Pork?


    Cao Cao''s eyes widened, his eyes were very surprised, and he said in a deep voice: "I''ve eaten pork, too. The meat has a great taste, not a good dish. Why, the pork in your hand tastes so delicious. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the pork I used was castrated since childhood. Castrated pork, less smell, but also conducive to feeding


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hide about the pork.


    Because even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t say it, Cao Cao''s spies in Chang''an will easily find out.


    It''s not a secret, after all.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao looked thoughtful. For people like Cao Cao, he is very knowledgeable. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he thought of more operations.


    What if we promote pork?


    Cao Cao thought about it in his heart, but Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the people and said, "gentlemen, the two dishes have been finished. I don''t think I need to repeat the taste. What do you think of your majesty and Cao Sikong''s praise? "


    "What a delicacy


    "It''s absolutely amazing!"


    "It''s very nice!"¡­¡­


    All the officials praised each other, and all of them praised each other.


    Cao Cao and Liu Xie both expressed their opinions, and there was no need for them to hide. What''s more, the taste of the two dishes is really unique.


    It''s delicious!


    Zhang Xiu heard the words of the people, and her eyes finally fell on Jin. She said with a smile: "General Yu, I think this time you and I will have a clear victory. What do you think?"


    "Yes


    Yu Jin''s cheek twitched and sighed in his heart.


    Lost!


    Lost to Zhang Xiu again.


    Kong Rong sat in the crowd. He also ate meat and drank soup. See this scene, the heart secretly happy, gain and loss did not gamble with Zhang Xiu, gain and loss did not fight against Zhang Xiu.


    He can see that Zhang Xiu is a difficult character.


    You can''t be the enemy of Zhang Xiu.


    At this time, Yu Jin''s cheeks were slightly red. After all, he is a great general in the court, and he is also a big man. At this time, he took a deep breath and solemnly said: "Zhang Xiu, I lost. I''m sorry for my nonsense. "


    Yu Jin looked at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, I don''t feel well. I''ll leave!"


    With that, he turned and left.


    Yu Jin''s departure made the atmosphere in the hall stagnant. But in a twinkling, it was hot again. Everyone was talking about pork and was ready to have a try.


    Zhang Xiu presented the rest of the pork to Liu Xie, and also talked about the method of making pig''s hoof soup and elbow. After hearing this, Liu Xie gave a fair compliment and waved his hand to the attendant to take away the books, coal, stone and pork.


    Liu Xie ate pork, although the taste buds were comfortable, but he didn''t feel comfortable in his heart. Because he didn''t get the manufacturing technology of rice paper, his heart was still quite lost.


    However, Liu Xie did not immediately mention it and immediately announced the opening of the banquet.


    The order was given, and the attendants came in.


    One by one, the servants in the palace brought good wine and food and placed them in front of the civil servants and military generals.


    Liu Xie personally took the lead and said with a smile, "I''m very glad that Zhang Qing has made many achievements in Guanzhong. I am very happy to see Zhang Xiu today. Come and have a drink with me to Zhang Qing. "


    "To General Zhang!"


    They took the bottles and opened their mouths together.


    Zhang Xiu took the wine bottle and said respectfully, "thank you


    With that, he looked up and drank.


    Liu Xie, Cao Cao and others all drank up. Then, Liu Xie said something more painless, all praise the meaning of Zhang Xiu, said Zhang Xiu young and promising, and so on.


    All the senior officials under Liu Xie kept toasting.


    Even Cao Cao frequently toasted Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu has only one person. In the face of people who come to propose a toast, he always does not refuse those who come. At this time of wine, even the aging wine, the degree is limited.


    Zhang Xiu''s drinking capacity is good, it can be said that a thousand cups are not drunk, it is not affected at all.


    After a cup, Zhang Xiu and others push the cup to hand over the cup.


    The atmosphere is incomparably warm.

 Chapter 459

    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    Round by round, Zhang Xiu didn''t know how many cups she had drunk. He only clearly remembered that he went to the cottage, and after taking a bath, he felt comfortable all over. All his drinking disappeared and he was alive again.


    Zhang Xiu is still welcome.


    All the officials came to toast, but he was still not drunk.


    Cao Cao saw all this in his eyes and was shocked in his heart. Zhang Xiu is a good drinker. Drinking to now, did not show a bit of drunkenness, but Cao Cao himself, with a slightly drunk feeling.


    Next to Cao Cao, Xia Houdun asked, "Lord, can you still insist?"


    "No problem!"


    Cao Cao nodded and answered.


    He lowered his voice and said: "Zhang Xiu, a boy, has a lot of wine. It''s like a bottomless hole. But I don''t believe it. He never gets drunk. Yuan rang, you go to toast and get me drunk with Zhang Xiu. I don''t believe it. He can block everyone''s toast. "


    "Here it is


    Xia Houdun stood up and went to Zhang Xiu wobbly.


    XiahouDun himself drank a lot of wine. After all, besides toasting others, he also accepted others'' toasting. Although XiahouDun was slightly drunk, he had a good capacity for drinking, so he came to Zhang Xiu and put the wine jar directly on her desk.


    Xia Houdun patted his chest and said, "Zhang Xiu, you and I are both good drinkers. Here''s to you


    "How can one be enough?"


    Zhang Xiu''s face is still not red and breathless. Her breath is normal and unaffected.


    In his previous life, he never got drunk.


    Back in this era, his body has a strong adaptability in drinking, and he has never been drunk. Just like now, he obviously drank a lot of wine, but after a trip to the cottage, he was no longer half drunk.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t know how much he could drink. Now, in the hall, when he saw that XiahouDun was already drunk, he had to come to propose a toast to get him drunk.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and continued: "one glass of wine is not enough. How about you and I drink three cups in a row? A man should not be careless in drinking. A man''s capacity for drinking is a man''s capacity. General Xia Hou, do you agree? "


    XiahouDun was slightly drunk.


    Wine strength up, a listen to Zhang Xiu''s words, then said: "reasonable, three cups on three cups, drink!"


    Xia Houdun''s forthrightness made Zhang Xiu laugh.


    That''s what he likes.


    Zhang Xiu asked people to bring more wine bottles and put them on the desk one by one. There were six wine bottles in two rows. Zhang Xiu filled the bottles one by one and said, "general Xia Hou, I''ll do it first."


    With that, Zhang Xiu picked up the first bottle and drank it down.


    After three glasses of wine, Zhang Xiu was not affected at all. She looked at Xiahou Dun in front of her with a smile and waved her hand: "general Xiahou, it''s your turn to drink."


    "Good!"


    XiahouDun is also forthright.


    He took the bottle in front of him and drank it directly.


    At the end of the first glass of wine, he was a little shaken and couldn''t stand still. By the end of the second glass of wine, he had shaken his dizzy head, and his eyes were almost narrowed.


    After the third glass of wine, harhoughton burped heavily. The body shakes two times, plops one, raises the head to fall on the ground, already is snores loudly, thoroughly drunk.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Cao Cao, tut tut two times, a pair of endless appearance.


    When Cao Cao saw this, he hated it in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu, a boy, is just fierce in war, even in drinking.


    I''m not a son.


    Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and asked, "fengxiao, you are a good drinker. Come on, you go up and drink to Zhang Xiu. "


    Guo Jia''s cheek twitched two times and said, "my Lord, I''m almost drunk. All of us have gone to worship Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu is still, on the contrary, our own people, one by one drunk and confused. You can''t all get drunk, otherwise, it''s easy to have an accident. "


    Cheng Yu sat on one side with a normal look on her face.


    As an old official under the command of Cao Cao, he was always cautious in his words and deeds, and was highly valued by Cao Cao. He said in a deep voice, "fengxiao, just go and toast. Today, I only drank a glass of wine, but I didn''t drink much."


    After a pause, Cheng Yu said again: "in addition, Dian Wei protects the Lord''s safety and never drinks. Outside the temple, there are our troops. Nothing will happen. Although you go to toast, we can''t get drunk one by one. Zhang Xiu is not affected at all. "


    Listen to Guo Jia''s toothache.


    He really didn''t want to go up for a toast. As a good drinker, Guo Jia didn''t like drinking. But Guo Jia''s drinking capacity is really a little scared in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s drinking capacity is too frightening.


    But at the thought of the rare old wine in the palace, Guo Jia did not hesitate any more. He got up and picked up the wine jar, went to Zhang Xiu, put the wine jar in front of Zhang Xiu, and said, "General Zhang, I respect you!"Zhang Xiu stood up and said with a faint smile: "Mr. Guo would like to propose a toast. Zhang Xiu is very honored. I don''t know if Mr. Guo''s toast is one, two or three? "


    Three


    Guo Jia put up three fingers, his eyes still kept a little clear.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "no, three cups are too few. Four, four drinks together. Since you come to propose a toast, the guests will be at home. Mr. Guo has to be my host. Don''t you think so? "


    Zhang Xiu has her own judgment on Guo Jia''s drinking capacity.


    It was obvious that Guo Jia was a little less drunk than Xia Houdun. If it''s a slow drink, it''s not a problem for Guo Jia to have another six or seven drinks. But one time drinking, four glasses of wine after another, Guo Jiabi drunk.


    Knowing that Guo Jialai''s purpose is to intoxicate him, Zhang Xiu won''t keep her hand.


    Guo Jia frowned slightly.


    Zhang Xiu''s son is also the master.


    At this time, he still kept a certain soberness, had a considerable sense, and knew that the amount of wine was only three or four cups. But Zhang Xiu''s words come out, he can''t refuse.


    What''s more, he didn''t believe that Zhang Xiu could survive. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he said: "four cups of wine is four cups of wine, dry!"


    "Forthright!"


    Zhang Xiu asked the attendants to add wine bottles and put them in two rows again.


    He picked up the jug, just got two glasses of wine, and there was no wine in the jug. Zhang Xiu asked someone to bring several jars of aged wine and put them on the table. Then she filled them with wine and said with a smile, "Mr. Guo, let''s drink for a while. How about four glasses of wine


    Guo Jia said: "no problem!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, picked up the wine bottle, and chucked four glasses of wine. Four cups of wine into the stomach, Zhang Xiu is also a burp, but still face is not red, breathless, not affected.


    Guo Jia smoked from the corner of his mouth, a little timid, but he still took the bottle to drink.


    After the first glass of wine, Guo Jia had no effect, but after the second and third, Guo Jia''s body was already on the verge of collapse. After the last four glasses of wine, Guo Jia was drunk and sat down on the ground.


    Guo Jia looks like a giggle, which is totally different from that of Guo Jia in peacetime.


    It''s a drunk look!


    Zhang Xiu shakes her sleeves, looks at Cao Cao again, holds up the wine bottle and makes a toast gesture.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s provocation.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe it, Cao Cao can stick to it.


    Cao Cao''s cheek twitched at the moment, and he ordered people to take Guo Jia and Xia Houdun down. As soon as his eyes turned, Cao Cao swept around and looked at the people under his command. At this time, everyone is a little drunk, so it''s not easy to propose a toast.


    Who are you looking for?

 Chapter 460

    Cao Cao was thinking about it when he saw Kong Rong standing up. Seeing Kong Rong carrying a wine bottle to the position of Zhang Xiu, he started to smile at the corner of his mouth.


    There is a contradiction between Kong Rong and Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao knows about Zhang Xiu''s scheming against Kong Rong, which led to his being denounced by the emperor, and even criticized by Dong Cheng and Fu Wan. Now Kong Rong stands up and strides towards Zhang Xiu, which is bound to take the opportunity to intoxicate Zhang Xiu.


    Don''t worry about it.


    Cao Cao''s heart, raised a happy mood, quietly watching all this happen.


    Soon, Kong Rong came to Zhang Xiu. In the face of Zhang Xiu, who is countless younger than him, Kong Rong has no pride, let alone the previous pride. Because Zhang Xiu''s ability is much stronger than him.


    Zhang Xiu can''t afford to offend.


    With a smile on his face, Kong Rong said: "General Zhang, in the past, when he was in Guanzhong, his subordinates made rude remarks, which offended him a lot. I''ll see you again today, general Zhang. I''d like to have a toast to General Zhang. I hope that general Zhang will understand Kong Rong''s improper actions. "


    "This glass of wine, Kong Rong himself drink, to make amends to General Zhang."


    "General Zhang, drink at will!"


    After Kong Rong finished, he took the bottle and drank it.


    Zhang Xiu heard Kong Rong''s words, some stunned, did not expect that Kong Rong actually took the initiative to apologize. His eyes, turn to Liu Xie, see Liu Xie is smiling at him, a happy look, Zhang Xiu immediately understand.


    This must be what Liu Xie asked for.


    In order to ease the relationship, Liu Xie abandoned Kong Rong and asked him to apologize to Zhang Xiu.


    Hearing Kong Rong''s words, Zhang Xiu stood up, took up the wine bottle and said, "Mr. Kong, I think Zhang Xiu''s temperament is very simple. People respect me and I respect people. If a man deceives me, I will surely return the tooth for the tooth and the blood for the blood. Master Kong chose a glass of wine to release his enmity and enmity. The enmity and enmity between you and me will dissipate in this glass of wine. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu took the bottle and drank it.


    When Kong Rong heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he felt a little excited.


    It''s finally done.


    Just Kong Rong''s heart, but also gave birth to a faint loss.


    If he had gone to Guanzhong to see Zhang Xiu before, he would have a good attitude. Even if you can''t get the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper in Zhang Xiu''s hands, you won''t be so miserable by Zhang Xiu.


    This is Kong Rong''s regret.


    Kong Rong retired after success, but when he retreated, he suddenly thought that loyalty to Zhang Xiu might be a good choice. However, as soon as this idea rose, it was strangled by Kong Rong.


    Kong Rong retreated after toasting, and the curtain fell on Cao Cao''s face. Cao Cao''s face froze.


    How is that possible?


    Kong Rong apologized to Zhang Xiu, and the two sides turned the quarrel into friendship.


    Cao Cao turned his eyes and looked at Liu Xie. Seeing Liu Xie''s satisfied expression at the moment, he sneered in his heart. In order to ease the relationship with Zhang Xiu, he abandoned Kong Rong, which only Liu Xie could do.


    If it were him, it would not be possible!


    At this time, Cao Cao noticed Zhang Xiu''s eyes. Zhang Xiu toasted him again. The provocative meaning was really strong, which made Cao Cao hate.


    Zhang Xiu!


    It''s disgusting!


    Cao Cao''s eyes turned and fell on Dian Wei. His heart is even produced, let Dianwei up and Zhang Xiu a higher, let Dianwei irrigation over Zhang Xiu plan.


    However, as soon as this idea rose, it was snuffed out by Cao Cao.


    It''s a joke to turn over Zhang Xiu.


    It doesn''t hurt.


    Once even Dian Wei was sent up, it would be to abolish the public for private reasons, which would affect Cao Cao''s layout and even his safety.


    This is not desirable.


    Cao Cao looked at Cao ang not far away and said, "ang''er, Zhang Xiu is your brother-in-law. You, go and toast him. "


    When Cao ang heard this, he looked bitter.


    He knew his father''s purpose was to give Zhang Xiu wine. You know, his own amount of alcohol is average. After all, Cao ang doesn''t like excessive drinking.


    Cao ang, as Cao Cao''s eldest son, was highly valued by Cao Cao. He won the recognition of civil servants and military generals under Cao Cao''s command through continuous battles, which was recognized as his successor.


    On the main hall, there are many officials and generals to toast.


    Cao ang can''t refuse, and can''t refuse. He can only drink whatever comes. As a result, although Cao ang is still sober, his drinking capacity has reached the bottom.


    After a few more drinks, I''m afraid I''ll get drunk on the spot.


    But the problem is, in the presence of civil servants and military generals, Cao Cao gave orders, but Cao ang could not refuse. He can only carry the wine bottle, came to Zhang Xiu, with a smile, said: "General Zhang, I come to toast for nothing else, just for my younger sister."


    Zhang xiujunyi''s face, full of smile, said: "since it is for the festival, you and I are a family. Why don''t you and I have three drinks each instead of two? "


    "Good!"


    Cao ang nodded and answered, took the initiative to pick up the wine jar, filled the wine one by one, and then said, "I''ll do it first for respect!""Gudong! Gudong


    Cao ang picked up the wine bottle and drank it one by one.


    After three glasses of wine, he felt dizzy, his tongue was numb, and he didn''t speak very clearly. He bolted: "it''s time, it''s time, it''s your turn, drink it!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "when it comes to drinking, I''ve never counseled Zhang Xiu. Drink!"


    Zhang Xiu copied the wine bottle, which was the end of three glasses of wine.


    After three cups of wine, Zhang Xiu is still not red and breathless, but Cao Ang''s brain is full of dizziness. He can''t even talk to Zhang Xiu. He staggers back to his seat, sits down and squints to rest.


    Cao ang also lost!


    Zhang Xiu had another drink.


    Zhang Xiu rubbed the wine bottle, looked at Cao Cao again, and said with a smile, "brother Meng De, is there anyone else coming to propose a toast?"


    This remark made me feel arrogant.


    Zhang Xiu was in awe of the people under Cao Cao. Now, on this wine table, I am awed by everyone. After he looked around, one of Cao Cao''s men was angry.


    For example, Xun you, Xun Yu, Li Dian, Le Jin, Cao Hong and others were even more angry.


    It''s just that these people don''t drink enough.


    But Cao Hong couldn''t bear it. He went to drink again. However, after Zhang Xiu''s four glasses of wine, Cao Hong fell down on the main hall and got drunk.


    Li Dian is still defeated.


    Zhang Xiu a cup a cup of wine, from beginning to end, is still light clouds, a thousand cups not drunk appearance.


    It''s shocking.


    The people under Cao Cao''s command looked solemn, and no one dared to challenge.


    Zhang Xiu drinks a glass of wine alone. At this time, he shakes his head and seems to have a confused look in his eyes. Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I am too drunk to drink. With your Majesty''s permission, let me have a rest. "


    "Sure!"


    Liu Xie did not stop him and agreed directly.


    For Cao Weicao, today''s joy is a setback for him.


    Zhang Xiu is really powerful.


    This is Liu Xie''s impression.


    Zhang Xiu bowed her hand to Liu Xie and bowed to Cao Cao again. With a smile, she turned and walked out. However, when Zhang Xiu went out, Cao Cao did not stay any longer and took all the people to resign.


    A group of people, go out together.


    Out of the city from the main hall, Zhang Xiu said nothing and her face was as deep as water. It was evening when I came out of the imperial city. At this time, Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the Imperial Palace, and Wang Yue and others immediately welcomed her.


    Zhang Xiu saw Wang Yue appear, smile on his face, a soft foot, a falter will fall forward.


    Wang Yue ran forward and helped Zhang Xiu up. He quickly helped Zhang Xiu into the carriage.


    Seeing this, Cao Cao felt sorry.


    Oh, no!


    It''s a trick!


    Zhang Xiu''s drinking capacity is not enough. Zhang Xiu had intimidated people before, leading to Cao Cao and the people under his command were all bluffed, and no one dared to go forward again.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu is really drunk.


    What a pity, what a pity!


    If you send another person to drink, maybe you will really get Zhang Xiu drunk.


    Cao Cao sighed in his heart, but he also restrained his mood and arranged for people to come forward to take Wang Yue to the post house to have a rest. But Wang Yue refused, because the earlier he arranged his residence, he didn''t need to live in Cao Cao''s post house.


    Cao Cao didn''t force him to leave with all the people under his command.

 Chapter 461

    When Zhang Xiu got on the carriage, she looked drunk. After boarding the carriage, with the wheels of the carriage moving forward, Zhang Xiu opened her eyes and woke up.


    That calm and relaxed look, not a bit drunk.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression restored calm and indifference.


    Seeing this, Wang Yue was stunned and said, "Lord, I think you are drunk. I didn''t expect to be drunk. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "only when I pretend to be drunk can I lead the snake out of the cave. I''m new to Xudu. I''m very drunk tonight. The news spreads to people who want to do something wrong. Maybe someone will do something bad to me this evening?"


    Wang Yue said, "who is the master talking about?"


    "Anyone is possible!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and analyzed: "in Xudu City, there is no one worthy of our trust. Liu Xie and I had no grudge, and even Liu Xie had to woo me, intending to use my power. However, Liu Xie may also kill me and plant it on Cao Cao. "


    "Similarly, Cao Cao and I have no dispute for the time being. On the surface, Cao Cao has to ensure my safety. But in case, what''s wrong with Cao Cao and he''s going to do it to me? "


    "Besides, there is Cao Anmin, who hates me to the bone."


    "Today, in the main hall, Yu Jin was humiliated by me again. He has the strength and ability to do harm to me."


    "These people are suspicious."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so as soon as I came out of the Imperial City, I pretended to be drunk to see what would happen this evening. If someone comes to assassinate us, we ambush each other. If the other party doesn''t come, it doesn''t matter. It''s just a waste of time and thought. This Xu capital is not our territory. Be careful in everything, there will be no big mistakes. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Wang Yue nodded with admiration.


    Compared with Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue, the leader of the royal guards, is not competent in many aspects.


    The vigilance is not high enough.


    Suddenly, Deng Zhan, a driver, lowered his voice and said, "Lord, someone is following us."


    "Don''t care about him!"


    Zhang Xiu answered.


    It''s more interesting to have people following.


    No sleep tonight!


    The group drove quickly to the place where they lived in the city.


    At this time, in Cao Anmin''s house near Sikong mansion outside the city, Cao Anmin sat in the hall and waited quietly. Cao Anmin''s official position is low. Although he can meet Zhang Xiu with Cao Cao, he is not qualified to enter the imperial city.


    Liu Xie held a banquet in the palace, but Cao Anmin did not go there.


    However, Cao Anmin has been following the news of Zhang Xiu. When Guo Jia and Xia Houdun were sent out drunk, Cao Anmin asked about the situation. Knowing that all the people under Cao Cao are persuading Zhang Xiu to drink, they intend to intoxicate Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Anmin believes that his opportunity has come. As long as Zhang Xiu is drunk and his vigilance is lowered, he has a chance to take advantage of it.


    He wants revenge tonight!


    Dark night, the hall, has lit the oil lamp.


    The lights are flickering, and Cao Anmin is still waiting.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    A warrior in black quickly entered the hall and said, "general, Zhang Xiu has left the imperial city. He went out of the city with Sikong. When she left the city, Zhang Xiu was drunk. Besides, Zhang Xiu didn''t live in our post house. She lived in Laifu Inn on Xuanwu Street. "


    "Laifu inn!"


    After hearing this, Cao Anmin asked, "what''s the background of Laifu Inn in Xuanwu Street?"


    "No!"


    Samurai in black reported: "it''s an ordinary two-story Inn, but according to our information, Zhang Xiu lives alone in the backyard of Laifu inn. The environment there is good, there is a separate yard, Zhang Xiu should be arranged in advance to prepare


    Cao Anmin waved his hand and said, "I know. Go down!"


    "Here it is


    The warrior in black stepped down respectfully.


    On Cao Anmin''s cold cheek, a cold color passed. He put on a cloak, wrapped himself in a black cloak to avoid the wind and snow, and then left the mansion in a carriage.


    After leaving the mansion, Cao Anmin went straight to Yu Jin''s residence.


    Previously, Cao Anmin got the news. He knew that Yu Jin was gambling with Zhang Xiu in the palace, but he was defeated by Zhang Xiu. As a result, when Yu Jin saw Zhang Xiu, he had to retreat three feet.


    It''s a great shame!


    Cao Anmin can bear it if he doesn''t believe in Yu Jin.


    Cao Anmin had persuaded Cao ang to deal with Zhang Xiu before, but Cao ang refused. Today, Cao Anmin believes that Yu will cooperate. Shortly after, Cao Anmin arrived at Yujin''s residence, knocked on the door and entered, waiting in the hall.


    Soon after, Yu Jin came.


    When Yu Jin saw Cao Anmin, he sat down and said, "Anmin, what can I do for you when you come to this general''s residence?"


    In the army, Cao Anmin is a junior.


    He was a member of Cao Ang''s generation, so Yu Jin called him Anmin directly.


    Cao Anmin said, "General Yu, I came here for Zhang Xiu''s sake. It''s said that general Yu bet with Zhang Xiu in the palace and lost to Zhang Xiu. "Yu Jin had a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.


    Good things don''t go out, bad things spread a thousand miles, he just bet, things spread.


    What''s his face?


    Yu Jin took a deep breath, suppressed his impetuous mood, and said faintly: "this general really lost to Zhang Xiu, but in the evening, with the wind and snow, Anmin came to my house. What''s the matter?"


    Cao Anmin still didn''t know what he wanted to do. He said again: "I''ve heard that in the palace hall today, countless people under the command of Sikong toasted Zhang Xiu. Even military adviser Guo, Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others were drunk and unconscious. When Zhang Xiu came out of the palace, he was completely drunk. Now he''s drunk and resting at the Laifu Inn on Xuanwu Street. "


    After hearing this, Yu Jin understood the implication of Cao Anmin.


    This is to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, Cao Anmin could not have inquired so clearly about Zhang Xiu''s residence.


    Yu Jin was an old man in the world. He didn''t answer the question. He said faintly, "an Min has inquired so clearly about Zhang Xiu''s residence and her situation. What''s the picture for?"


    Cao Anmin''s eyes narrowed and he no longer hid them. He opened the door to the mountain and said, "I want to kill Zhang Xiu!"


    Brush!


    Yu Ban''s face changed slightly. I didn''t expect that Cao Anmin would be so brave. Although he expected that Cao Anmin would deal with Zhang Xiu, he did not expect that Cao Anmin was so bold.


    It''s going to break my God!


    Yu Jin said in a deep voice, "an min, do you know what you are going to do?"


    "I know!"


    Cao Anmin looked coldly and said, "if you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, General Yu and I, Cao Anmin, will always be the foil of Zhang Xiu, and will never be able to wash away our shame. General Yu, you were captured alive by Zhang Xiu, and now you are humiliated by Zhang Xiu. When you see Zhang Xiu in the future, you have to step back three feet. Are you willing? "


    A willing word?


    He clenched his fist when he was forbidden. He was unwilling to do such a thing.


    He was also full of resentment.


    Yu Jin said coldly: "Anmin, you should know that the Lord doesn''t want us to deal with Zhang Xiu. Once we join hands to deal with Zhang Xiu, the news is exposed, and we are bound to be severely punished by the Lord. "


    Cao Anmin said: "I don''t care. What''s more, we know where Zhang Xiu lives. We don''t need to do it ourselves. As long as you and I send the dead to Laifu inn to attack Zhang Xiu. You and I, 15 each. Thirty dead men surrounded Laifu inn. It should be easier to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "Thirty


    Yu Jin narrowed his eyes and shook his head


    Cao Anmin said, "how many people do you want?"


    After thinking about it, Yu Jin said in a deep voice: "although Zhang Xiu is very drunk, all the people around her are very powerful swordsmen. According to the Lord''s information, Wang Yue, who is beside Zhang Xiu, is a master of swordsmanship. "


    "To deal with Zhang Xiu, it is difficult to succeed without 50 dead men."


    "So you and I each sent out 25 dead men and asked them to go to Laifu inn to kill Zhang Xiu. If it does, it''s the best. If it fails, it will have no impact. Anyway, it will not expose the news. "


    Yu Jin asked, "what do you think?"


    "Good!"


    Cao Anmin didn''t even think about it and agreed directly.


    After discussing the details, they quickly arranged for the assassination at night.

 Chapter 462

    The night was deep and the wind was cold.


    The streets are covered with white snow. For a long time, the snow is falling. In a short time, the ice and snow can not melt away, making a layer of ice on the ground. It''s very easy to slip on the road.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps, suddenly sounded.


    A group of people dressed in black, masked and holding swords appeared on Xuanwu Street.


    There are fifty people in this group.


    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin arranged for 25 dead men each, making up 50 dead men. The leader was Xie Jue, a dead man in the imperial palace.


    He is the best swordsman of all.


    Xie Jue and others rushed all the way to Laifu inn. When he looked at the Laifu Inn with its closed door, there was a flash of light in his eyes, which was even more fierce.


    In this case, only victory is allowed.


    He has to win.


    Xie Jue came to the gate and let the warriors under him hide. Then he knocked on the door.


    "Bang! Bang


    The door knocks against the door, and soon a "wait a minute" sound comes from inside. A moment later, the door of Laifu Inn was opened, and the shopkeeper stood out with a smile on his face and asked, "young master, do you want to stay in the hotel?"


    "Don''t stay in the shop, find someone!"


    Xie Jue replied coldly, especially at the moment when the shopkeeper appeared, his scabbard went up, put it on the shopkeeper''s neck, and said in a deep voice: "where does Zhang Xiu live in Laifu Inn?"


    "In the backyard, in the backyard!"


    The shopkeeper answered in a hurry. He turned around, pointed to the road into the lobby of the inn, and then said: "go straight along this road, all the way to the end, is the courtyard where Zhang Xiu lives. Hero, hero, villain is a small business. If you spare the villain''s life, you won''t know anything. "


    "Get out of the way!"


    Xie Jue didn''t kill the shopkeeper. With a command, the shopkeeper ran away and went back to his room to hide.


    Xie Jue sneers twice and leads people in.


    Fifty people, mighty, went straight to the courtyard where Zhang Xiu was.


    In the inn, every other distance, there are torches burning. Although the cold wind blows, the torch just shakes twice and never goes out.


    After a while, Xie Jue and his party came to the courtyard where Zhang Xiu lived.


    From the outside, it''s quiet inside. It''s dark. You can''t see anything. Xie Jue is on the alert. After all, Zhang Xiu is the leader of the party. When she comes to the strange capital of Xu, there must be corresponding protection around her.


    In the yard, there must be Zhang Xiu.


    However, Xie Jue looked around and didn''t see what happened. He had to give an order and said, "go ahead, take down Zhang Xiu and kill him!"


    In an instant, the dead entered quickly.


    Xie Jue followed him and went into the courtyard to touch Zhang Xiu''s room. Just when they were on guard and touched Zhang Xiu''s room, all of a sudden, the surrounding area suddenly lit up.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    A torch, suddenly burning up.


    The whole yard was as bright as day under the red fire. Around the walls of the yard, torches were on. Originally this kind of firelight has no effect on people''s visual eyeballs. However, Xie Jue and others, who are used to the dark light, suddenly encounter the dazzling fire light and become blind for a moment.


    "Whew! Whew


    There was a piercing sound.


    Although Xie Jue''s sight was blind for a moment, he immediately yelled, "be careful. There are crossbows and arrows around. Be careful."


    But even if Xie Jue found out, it was too late.


    A crossbow shot from the edge of the yard. In a flash, he came to Xie Jue and other assassins and stabbed them into their bodies.


    Puchi Puchi into the meat sound, one after another sounded.


    A series of screams, resounding in the night sky, broke the silence in the yard.


    Xie Jue originally brought 50 people to assassinate Zhang Xiu, but after the shooting of the crossbow just now, the people around Xie Jue were nearly half dead and half wounded.


    Only about 20 people were left intact.


    "I didn''t expect someone to kill me!"


    A loud voice came from the gate of the yard. But Zhang Xiu is carrying the overlord gun, appears in the courtyard gate. His vision is sharp, after a circle, way: "this officer is Zhang Xiu, you want to kill me?"


    "Are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Xie Jue''s eyes flashed the intention of killing.


    However, Xie Jue is surprised. Isn''t Zhang Xiu drunk? But in front of Zhang Xiu, it seems that she didn''t drink.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if there is only one Zhang Xiu in this world, it will be me."


    Xie Jue no longer hesitated and said, "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    With Xie Jue''s hand, a group of soldiers who could fight around him also took the sword and went straight to Zhang Xiu.


    One by one, intending to kill Zhang Xiu.Unfortunately, at the moment of their hand, the royal guards have already done it. Shi a and Deng Zhan joined hands to kill from both sides. Zhang Xiu also carries the overlord gun and rushes out to take Xie Jue.


    Because he found that Xie Jue ordered everyone to act, which means that Xie Jue is the leader.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu came to Xie Jue. He swung the overlord''s gun in his hand. As soon as the long gun was shaken, the sharp tip of the gun was shaken. The cold star flashed in the light of the fire, and the sharp cold light took Xie Jue''s heart.


    Xie Jue stops at the speed of rushing forward and blocks with his sword.


    "Dang!"


    The blade of the sword hit the barrel of the Bawang gun. In a flash, the barrel of the gun shook and swung away the blade. It was not affected at all. The sharp tip of the gun continued to move forward again.


    Thank you for your face change.


    No!


    Zhang Xiu is a master.


    Xie Jue''s swordsmanship is superb, and his power is very strong. According to his estimation, he cut out his sword, cut the blade on the barrel of the gun, and under the impact of violent force, it was enough to deflect the tip of the gun.


    But the tip of the gun did not move at all, as if his sword was a surging wave, while Zhang Xiu''s gun was a towering green hill. Even if the tide is rough, the Castle Peak is still unaffected.


    This shocked Xie Jue.


    It''s too late for Xie Jue to retreat. He can only turn his body and try to avoid his own key.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun easily penetrated Xie Jue''s shoulder.


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink, holding the bawangqiang''s hands and exerting great power, pouring into the bawangqiang like a mountain roaring tsunami. The thick bawangqiang rose and forced Xie Jue up in the air.


    At this moment, Xie Jue was in great pain.


    The pain of shoulder penetration, and even the pain of being stabbed in the air by a long gun, is attacking Xie Jue''s body wave by wave. Rao Shi is a dead man. He is strong and used to suffering. He still can''t help crying out in pain.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu and was even more shocked.


    One shot pierced his shoulder, and then with the help of his assistant, he was lifted in the air, which is not what ordinary people can do.


    What a terrible Zhang Xiu!


    In Xie Jue''s heart, he was afraid. At the next moment, Xie Jue only felt the pain of the wound. He felt a force coming, and his body was thrown out.


    Xie Jue Ren crossed an arc in mid air. Just as he was about to fall, suddenly, Xie Jue''s eyes widened.


    He saw Zhang Xiu rush over.


    Zhang Xiu steps repeatedly, and by the time Xie Jue is ten feet in front of him, he has already jumped up, and the overlord''s gun will be thrown down.


    "Bang!"


    The tyrannical gun hit Xie Jue''s legs.


    "Click!"


    The sound of a broken bone came out.


    Xie Jue only felt that there were endless ants biting his legs and endless pain coming from him. At the moment when the pain attacked, the body fell to the ground. It was heartbreaking and extremely painful.


    It''s hard. It''s so hard!


    Xie Jue was even in great pain. The sword in his hand had already flown out. He seemed to be falling apart and could not even lift up his strength. At this moment, the royal guards rush up, expertly unload Xie Jue''s chin, and drag Xie Jue to one side.

 Chapter 463

    Throughout the whole process, Xie Jue didn''t even have the strength to resist.


    Zhang Xiu no longer pays attention to Xie Jue, but joins hands with Shi a and Deng Zhan to kill the dead one by one.


    With the help of the three men, the dead man could not resist.


    In a short time, there were countless deaths and injuries.


    Some of the dead wanted to escape from the courtyard when they saw the enemy. But as soon as they ran to the gate of the courtyard, they were stopped by Wang Yue, who had already been at the gate of the courtyard, and then killed them with his sword.


    It''s a one-sided slaughter.


    In a flash, only ten of the fifty dead were killed. Moreover, these ten people were deliberately left alive by Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhan and Shi A. otherwise, all 50 assassins would be killed.


    Zhang Xiu arranges the royal guards to clean the battlefield and drag away the corpses lying on the ground.


    After that, they brought people into the room.


    Before Zhang Xiu was interrogated, Xie Jue gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you can''t get any information from our mouth. Although the poison in our mouth is taken out, we are all trained and can''t tell you any news. "


    "No hurry, no hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "for the time being, I don''t want to interrogate you. Next, I''ll give you a surprise. No matter who is behind you, you can''t escape from the palm of my hand. "


    Xie Jue said, "you dream!"


    Zhang Xiu stares at Xie Jue and says tentatively, "are you sent by Yu Jin?"


    This words, Zhang Xiu obviously aware that the presence of a group of assassins, some people look fluctuations. Although the expression of these assassins recovered immediately, Zhang Xiu could already judge by this change.


    It must have something to do with Yu ban!


    As for whether it has anything to do with the rest of the people, it needs to be interrogated.


    Zhang Xiu waves her hand and asks Shi a to take people down and detain them in Laifu inn. In fact, this Laifu inn is one of the strongholds of the royal guards.


    When Zhang Xiu leaves, this stronghold of Laifu Inn will be abandoned.


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, we have been assassinated. Next, what shall we do? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "tomorrow, I will deal with it. Whether it is Cao Cao''s people who assassinate me, or the emperor''s people who assassinate me. In short, this time, whoever arranges people will be hard to get rid of the blame. "


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "prince, you should have a rest."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue stopped staying and turned back.


    The whole Laifu Inn was quiet again, but compared with the quietness of Laifu Inn, Yu Jin''s residence was completely transparent. In the hall, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin were still waiting for news.


    Both want to succeed.


    Killing Zhang Xiu solves the past. After killing Zhang Xiu, all the humiliation will disappear. But the passage of time a little bit, in the twinkling of an eye, has passed the dawn.


    At this time, it was even colder.


    Coal and stone have been added to the brazier in the hall, but the news from Xie Jue hasn''t been sent back yet.


    Both Cao Anmin and Yu Jin were a little nervous.


    No news yet!


    What about this?


    Cao Anmin was a little flustered. He looked at Yu Jin and said, "General Yu, up to now, there is no news. Is something wrong? "


    When he acted, Cao Anmin was full of expectation and did not consider the possible failure.


    Now there is no result, but Cao Anmin is flustered.


    He was worried about the failure of the plan.


    Although Yu Jin was uneasy, he was a general in the army after all. He had better psychological quality, so he was able to stabilize his mind and keep calm. He said, "it''s still early to pacify the people. It''s normal that we haven''t got any news now. After all, Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. Even if Xie Jue and others want to do it, it will take a little time. Be patient and we''ll wait a little longer. "


    "Good!"


    Cao Anmin nodded.


    But sitting in the hall, Cao Anmin was on pins and needles, unable to calm down. In desperation, Cao Anmin said: "General Yu, this time is too boring. Bring up two jugs of wine, and you and I will drink


    It''s a good suggestion to listen to Yu ban.


    He ordered his servants to prepare drinks and chat with Cao Anmin.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it''s time.


    At this time, I haven''t got any news. Either Yu ban or Cao Anmin can''t rely on drinking to pass the time any more. I''m a little panicked.


    Don''t be afraid of ghosts if you don''t do bad things.


    If they didn''t do it to Zhang Xiu, they wouldn''t have any worries. But at this time, they were in a panic.


    Cao Anmin rubbed his hands and said, "General Yu, what shall we do?"


    Yu also had some regrets.


    He regretted believing Cao Anmin''s words so easily that he took part in the assassination of Zhang Xiu. Now that the sword is out of its sheath, there is no chance to turn back, which makes him helpless.After thinking about it for a moment, Yu Jin said in a deep voice, "is the assassination of Laifu Inn a failure or something else. You and I don''t know for the moment. "


    "I don''t think it''s appropriate to take further action now."


    "Once action is taken again, it''s easy to scare the snake, or even expose more information. So I suggest that you go back to the government and have a rest. And I, too, did not move. "


    Yu Jin said, "you and I, each pretending not to know, will see the situation tomorrow."


    Cao Anmin thought about it and could only do so.


    There is no other way.


    "Well, that''s it."


    Cao Anmin''s heart is also quite helpless. At this point, we can only take the present approach. He stopped staying and immediately got up to leave.


    Out of the forbidden residence, Cao Anmin quietly returned by carriage.


    But on the way back, Cao Anmin''s heart was vaguely looking forward to seeing the dead when he returned to his residence. He didn''t want all of them to come back, but at least some of them to report back.


    Cao Anmin was disappointed.


    When he returned, no one came back.


    In Cao Anmin''s uneasiness, he washed and went back to his room to have a rest.


    The night is hazy, especially in winter. The next day, Cao Funing would not do anything.


    Compared with Cao Anmin''s worry, Zhang Xiu wakes up all night, but she is full of energy. He solved Xie Jue and others last night, and he had no trial, so he had an early rest and had a good sleep.


    Wake up and the morning exercise is over.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu had breakfast, Wang Yue came and said, "Lord, last night, I promoted an ordinary assassin. The assassin confessed something. "


    Today''s Wang Yue, in the trial, has made rapid progress.


    It is mainly about Zhang Xiu.


    Wang Yue didn''t bring Xie Jue up for trial. Through ordinary dead men, he inquired about Cao Anmin and Yu Jin.


    Zhang xiudao: "what is the situation?"


    Wang Yue replied: "although the assassins last night acted together, there were actually two sides. The first party is the dead arranged by Yu ban, and the second party is the dead arranged by Cao Anmin. Two people unite together, the intention assassinates the Lord


    "These two people really can''t help it. This time, there''s a good play to watch."


    Zhang Xiu sneer, did not expect Cao Anmin and Yu Jin, will be so impatient.


    He pretended to be drunk yesterday, just to draw the snake out of the hole and see if he had to deal with him. Did not expect, if it is someone, but also Zhang Xiu''s old rival Cao Anmin and Yu ban.


    Wang Yue said: "it has been brought to trial. I know it''s them. What does the Lord plan to do?"


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said: "this matter must be dealt with by Cao Cao. He is the most suitable one. However, I will not directly say that it is Cao Anmin and Yu Jin. If you make an arrangement, we''ll go to see Cao Cao at Sikong mansion immediately. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answered immediately.

 Chapter 464

    "Wheel! Wheel


    The carriage came out of Fu Inn slowly. Zhang Xiu took the carriage and went straight to Sikong mansion. It''s not far from Laifu inn to Sikong mansion. When the carriage slowed down, it took only two quarters of an hour to get outside Sikong mansion.


    Today''s Sikong Prefecture is the administrative center of the whole Han Dynasty.


    All government orders have to go to Sikong mansion.


    Under such circumstances, a porter at the gate of Sikong mansion is also a rising tide. In front of the porter, the general officials are all humble and have to respect the porter.


    Zhang Xiu arrived, but did not worry about the porter, directly reported the name, let the porter to inform.


    When it comes to Zhang Xiu, the porter dare not delay. Not long after the porter passed the letter, Cao Cao, dressed in a broad collar shirt and a Jinxian crown, approved a fox skin cloak and went to the gate in person, saying, "General Zhang''s visit has made my Sikong mansion shine."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "my father-in-law''s praise is nothing but Zhang Xiu. I''m here today, on the one hand, to visit you on personal matters, and on the other hand, to visit you on business matters. "


    "Please


    Cao Cao waved his hand and led Zhang Xiu into the room.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Cao Cao gave a smile and said, "my son-in-law says it''s for private affairs, so what''s private affairs?"


    Regardless of the official positions of Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao, it is an indisputable fact that Zhang Xiu married Cao Jie and was Cao Cao''s son-in-law. Therefore, when Zhang Xiu comes to Xudu, this aspect of etiquette must be fulfilled.


    Zhang Xiu said: "my private business this time is to greet my father-in-law''s health instead of jie''er. In addition, there are also some gifts prepared for the festival to be given to my father-in-law. "


    "Come on, bring in the presents."


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    As the voice fell, the attendant outside the hall came in carrying a box. Zhang Xiu put some items in the suitcase and opened the suitcase to reveal the shoes.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "there are some clothes and shoes inside, which jie''er has prepared for her father-in-law. Two robes in spring, summer, autumn and winter were sewn by jie''er himself. "


    This is a gift for Cao Jie.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at Xudu, he wanted to hand it over to Cao Cao.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao was quite moved. He went to the box, picked up his robe and looked at it carefully, but there was a touch of joy and pity on his face.


    It''s a pity that Cao Jie has been married so far that he can''t see him all year round.


    Cao Cao quickly put away his sadness and returned to his seat. He said with a straight face, "why didn''t he expect to bring jie''er back when his son-in-law returned to Xudu? After she married her son-in-law, she never came back. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "now Chang''an needs a festival, so she can''t get away from it for the time being."


    Cao Cao thinks that Zhang Xiu is a polite remark.


    Cao Cao doesn''t think that there is nothing that can''t be separated from Cao Jie. He stays in his house all day, and there is nothing that can''t be separated from Cao Jie. It must be Zhang Xiu who worried about Cao Cao''s arrest that she didn''t take Cao Jie with her.


    Cao Cao had a guess in his heart, but he didn''t say it. He continued: "my son-in-law said that it''s a private matter on the one hand and a business matter on the other. So what is this business? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the business involved needs Cao Sikong to go to Laifu Inn in person. Because this matter must be dealt with at the Laifu inn. "


    "No problem!"


    Cao Cao should go down directly.


    He wants to see what tricks Zhang Xiu wants to play again.


    Zhang Xiu immediately stood up and said, "time is pressing. Cao Sikong, please follow me."


    "Let''s go!"


    Cao Cao stood up and left with Zhang Xiu.


    But as soon as Cao Cao left, he was surrounded by others. As for the guards such as Dian Wei and Xu Chu, they all worked hard to protect Cao Cao''s safety.


    Time is not long, Zhang Xiu with people back, once again into the yard.


    Cao Cao''s eyes were calm, and he said in a deep voice: "my son-in-law, I have already arrived in the yard. What are you going to do next? What do you mean by business? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Sikong, I invite you to see a play."


    "Bring the men up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a command. In an instant, Wang Yue arranged for people to take Xie Jue and other prisoners out. But last night, the person who was put on trial by Wang Yue didn''t come out.


    Cao Cao looked at the bound and wounded dead, and did not understand anything.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Sikong, last night, shortly after I returned to Laifu Inn, someone came to assassinate me. I captured all these people alive last night. This is a man with broken legs. It''s the leader of the dead. Come on, come on. In front of Cao Sikong, I''ll see who sent this man. "


    Cao Cao frowned.


    It''s audacious to have an assassin to assassinate Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Xie Jue and said in a deep voice: "now, you can confess.""I don''t know anything!"


    The expression on Xie Jue''s face was awe inspiring.


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you serious?"


    "No!"


    Thank you and answer directly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, bring me the iron brush."


    Wang Yue immediately confessed to go on, not long, the royal guards sent iron brush. Such an iron brush was specially made by Zhang Xiu for the craftsman''s workshop, so that the prisoner could be put on trial.


    In fact, there are iron brushes. After some threats, many people have said that. There are few real latte brushes on people.


    Zhang Xiu took the iron brush and said, "Xie Jue, do you see the iron brush in my hand? You insist that if this brush falls on you, it will brush off the skin on your back and expose your bleeding body. "


    After hearing this, Xie Jue looked at the iron brush carefully. His face was full of ferocity. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, even if you want to coerce me, I won''t say that."


    "What a pity!"


    Zhang Xiu said, the iron brush fell, sharp needle, a little bit into the skin, hard to pull down.


    "Yes


    As the iron brush passed, Xie Jue couldn''t help crying out in pain.


    The criminal law was too harsh. Cao Cao frowned in his eyes, but he was also puzzled.


    Who?


    Who arranged to assassinate Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu brushed back and forth twice before stopping. At the moment, Xie Jue''s back was bloody. His eyes were cold and he said, "next, soak the wound in salt water. Your wound, after being soaked in salt water, will never be forgotten. "


    Xie Jue''s mouth began to twitch.


    He was frightened by Zhang Xiu, it is Zhang Xiu''s means are too different from ordinary people.


    Seeing Xie Jue''s fear, Zhang Xiu knew that she was still short of a fire and continued: "pouring salt water on it is the second step. Next, I will smear honey on your wound and throw you out. At that time, ants, insects and other sweet animals will climb to your wound and bite. It''s delicious. "


    "You, you..."


    Xie Jue''s face changed greatly.


    He also saw a lot of criminal law. In front of Zhang Xiu. He met the criminal law, it is simply a small see big witch, Zhang Xiu means too terrible.


    Zhang Xiu said, "now, do you plead guilty?"


    "I, I, I plead guilty."


    Xie Jue couldn''t hold on any longer. He said directly, "I''m following Cao Anmin''s and Yu Jin''s orders to assassinate you."


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face is full of endless anger. He turned to look at Cao Cao and said, "Sikong, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin assassinated me like this. How do you deal with it?"


    Cao Cao''s heart sank when he heard the speech.


    Cao Anmin is his confidant and Yu Jin is his general. Unexpectedly, both of them are involved in the case.


    This makes Cao Cao very difficult.

 Chapter 465

    On Zhang Xiu''s angular face, her eyes twinkled with wisdom and coldness, and she continued: "of course, Cao Sikong will also think, what if this is my planting?"


    "Will it?"


    Zhang Xiu asked.


    "No!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and answered.


    When it comes to such things, he believes that Zhang Xiu will cheat. Because Zhang Xiu falsely accuses Cao Anmin of making peace with Yu Jin, it doesn''t do any good. She can only make trouble for herself.


    It must be true.


    Cao Cao thought quickly in his heart and figured out the solution.


    It has to be dealt with.


    Otherwise, it is not Cao Anmin and Yu Jin who want to assassinate Zhang Xiu, but Cao Cao who wants to kill Zhang Xiu. Because Cao Anmin and Yu Jin are Cao Cao''s people, their actions represent Cao Cao''s intention to some extent.


    In particular, once this matter is known by the emperor, the consequences are even more unimaginable.


    This is not conducive to Cao Cao''s ruling.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, sorted out his words and said, "General Zhang, believe it or not. I, Cao Cao, dare swear that no one will assassinate you. I don''t know what happened this time. The assassination last night was arranged by Cao Anmin and Yu Jin. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I believe you!"


    Zhang Xiu believes that Cao Cao did not arrange the assassination last night. Although Cao Cao may be unfavorable to Zhang Xiu, it''s not the right time for him to take action. It''s after the emperor summoned Zhang Xiu to report on his work, and everything is well arranged.


    Wrong time!


    Now Zhang Xiu is assassinated, which is the most unfavorable to Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao said, "I''ll give you a satisfactory reply on this matter."


    "I''m looking forward to it," Zhang said


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "in addition to this man, there are more than ten assassins, all of whom are detained in Laifu inn. Last night, I killed more than 40 assassins. Yu Jin and Cao Anmin sent a total of 50 assassins. "


    Hiss!


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he took a cool breath.


    Damn it!


    Damn Cao Anmin!


    Two people are simply bastards, even sent 50 people to attack Zhang Xiu, simply live impatiently.


    "Dianwei!"


    Cao Cao immediately gave an order.


    "The end will be here!"


    Dianwei stepped forward and saluted.


    Cao Cao said, "take the soldiers with you and bring Cao Anmin and Yu Jin."


    "Here it is


    Dianwei answered and left with the soldiers.


    After Dian Wei left, Cao Cao looked at Zhang Xiu again and said, "son-in-law, you and I are all family. The whole family doesn''t talk to each other. Although Cao Anmin and Yu ban have a hand, I will never arrange this. "


    He explained again.


    Today''s situation, Cao Cao is really worried about Zhang Xiu broken pot broken fall, make things big.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I just said that I believe in my father-in-law. However, this matter must be explained to me. Otherwise, I will have to report the matter to the emperor for decision. "


    In fact, reporting to the emperor had no effect on Cao Cao. Because everything in the court is Cao Cao has the final say, can rise to the level of the emperor, it involves the great justice of the court.


    This is easy to affect Cao Cao''s prestige.


    Cao Cao no longer said much, but he was still thinking about how to deal with Yu ban and Cao Anmin, in order to appease Zhang Xiu.


    This time, he fell into passivity again.


    In the last battle with Zhang Xiu, Cao Anmin was captured first, which made Cao Cao fall into a passive situation. As a result, the war between Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu was hindered everywhere. At last, Cao Anmin and Zhang Xiu paid a high price, even arranged a marriage between Cao Jie and Zhang Xiu, in exchange for Cao Anmin and others.


    This time, it was Cao Anmin and Yu Jin who took action without authorization and made a dent in Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao was very angry.


    But Cao Cao knew that even if he was angry, it would not help. When Cao Cao was thinking, he didn''t realize that time was fleeting. Dian Wei escorted Cao Anmin and Yu Jin.


    Both of them are as pale as death.


    Neither Cao Anmin nor Yu Jin expected that he would be exposed so quickly. They sent the dead. Even if they failed, the dead should commit suicide.


    But they were exposed and captured by Dianwei. They all knew that the situation was not good. Yu Jin entered Laifu inn. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Cao Cao with an angry look on his face. He was so scared that his legs softened and his heart was crying.


    This time it''s over.


    So is Cao Anmin.


    Cao Cao''s eyes showed a strong sense of killing, scolded: "kneel down!"


    "Plop! Plop


    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin knelt down on the ground at the same time, crying and despairing.


    Cao Cao, with a cold face, asked: "last night, fifty assassins sneaked into Laifu Inn and assassinated General Zhang. But you ordered it? "


    "Yes


    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin answered directly.When they came, they listened to Dianwei and knew that it had been exposed, so they didn''t make any sophistry.


    Cao Cao said, "it''s most unforgiving for you two to send a dead man to assassinate Zhang Xiu. I can''t tell General Zhang what happened today without killing you. Killers, people always kill! Today, I put you to death as an example. "


    "Somebody


    Cao Cao gave a direct order.


    "Yes


    The soldiers answered.


    Cao Cao ordered: "drag out Cao Anmin and Yu ban and bring the law to justice."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was stunned, but he didn''t dare to disobey the order and acted directly.


    When Cao Anmin and Yu Jin heard this, their bodies trembled. They didn''t think of it. Now they are in trouble. For them, if they can''t be assassinated, they will be executed instead. They can''t eat rice without stealing chicken. They are just throwing stones at their own feet.


    "Take it down!"


    Cao Cao gave another order.


    "Here it is


    No longer hesitated, the soldiers dragged people out.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene, eyes narrowed up, the corners of her mouth filled with a faint sneer.


    Cao Cao is really cunning!


    This is intentional to show the importance of the event.


    Cao Cao directly wants to kill Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu sees this scene. If she ignores it, doesn''t she want to completely break up her relationship with Cao Cao? At least in the present situation, it is not suitable for both sides to make such a move.


    Cao Cao is the right material, Zhang Xiu will stop, and so on Zhang Xiu mouth stop, and then give compensation to eliminate things.


    This is Cao Cao''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu see through, but did not immediately stop, let the soldiers dragged out.


    Zhang Xiu''s action made Cao Cao a little nervous.


    Cao Cao is right, Zhang Xiu will choose to step back to resolve the fight. But Zhang Xiu did not speak all the time. Cao Cao Rao''s psychological quality was excellent, and he could not help getting nervous. His heart was beating.


    He was angry at Cao Anmin and Yu Jin''s self assertion, but these two people, one is his nephew generation, the other is the general he relied on, he could not ignore them.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Cao Cao''s face and saw that Cao Cao was nervous and funny. However, Zhang Xiu did not do anything absolutely. When the man was brought to the gate of the yard, he said, "wait a minute!"


    "Hoo


    Cao Cao breathed a long sigh of relief.


    Yu Jin and Cao Anmin were relieved at last. On a cold day, their foreheads were covered with fine beads of sweat. Just now, they were really scared.


    Cao Cao asked, "son-in-law, what''s the matter with you when you stop the soldiers?"


    Zhang Xiu smiles and asks people to take Yu Jin and Cao Anmin into the yard. Then she looks at Cao Cao and says, "Mr. Cao, it''s the people under your command who did the wrong thing this time, isn''t it?"


    "Yes


    Cao Cao nodded and answered.


    He knew he couldn''t avoid it.


    Cao Cao is willing to pay the price as long as he can save Cao Anmin and solve the problem. Cao Cao is more aware of Zhang Xiu''s temperament. If he doesn''t pay a little price, it''s definitely impossible to quell the matter.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cao Anmin and Yu Jin assassinated me. According to the truth, they should be severely punished. However, I did not allow Cao Gong to kill them. To resolve this matter, I have three conditions. "

 Chapter 466

    Cao Cao said, "what are the three conditions?"


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "first, I heard that Cao Gong had two swords that cut iron like mud. One is Yitian sword and the other is Qingchen sword. My first condition is not harsh. How about giving me the sword from heaven


    "Yes," said Cao Cao


    For Cao Cao, although he likes his sword, he is not a miser.


    The sword is sharp, but it is something outside.


    This is Cao Cao''s understanding.


    Cao Cao is willing to exchange Heaven Sword for Yu Jin and Cao Anmin to resolve this resentment. Even though Cao Cao''s heart seemed to be dripping blood, Cao Cao was not unwilling.


    Zhang Xiu gave a thumbs up and praised: "Duke Cao really has nothing to say when he treats the people under his command. For the sake of the people below, I didn''t hesitate to take out the Yitian sword. I wouldn''t be able to do that. "


    Cao Cao''s mouth twitched.


    This words, how to listen in the ear, like saying sarcastic words.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have a backache when she talks standing.


    Cao Cao said: "the first condition, I agreed. What about the second condition? "


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said, "I envy Cao Gong. As one of the three princes of the current Dynasty, he is a hypocrite and a founder. He is powerful and acts on behalf of the emperor. Most of the officials in the world are under the control of Cao Gong. "


    Cao Cao''s mind became active.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are like this. The voice outside the words is to seek an official.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Cao Cao immediately said, "is general Zhang ready to ask for an official position? What position do you want to hold


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will not ask for an official or something. My official position is appointed by the imperial court and approved by the emperor. If the court thinks that I am suitable for any official position, I will take it. However, I am in charge of Nanyang County and Sili area. It''s true that a single Sili Xiaowei can''t satisfy the current situation, and it doesn''t fit in any more. "


    Cao Cao secretly scolds Zhang Xiu for her cunning.


    I beg for an official position, but I don''t want to talk about it myself. I''m just beating the drum.


    But it''s also Zhang Xiu''s cunning.


    Now, Cao Cao is ashamed of Zhang Xiu and asks for Zhang Xiu. He can only take the initiative to say, "it''s a grievance to be a good son-in-law''s official post, and to be a captain of Sili school. In my opinion, it''s more appropriate to be situ, don''t you think? "


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "as situ, I am not suitable."


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed. After thinking about it, he said, "since situ is not suitable, I''d better appoint my son-in-law to be the Taiwei and fajie by the order of the imperial court. Taiwei is in charge of the military affairs in the world. He acts on behalf of the emperor during the holidays. He is no less powerful than his own official. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "although it is not appropriate for me to be a Taiwei. However, such an official position is really needed. Otherwise, it is not worthy of the name to be in charge of Guanzhong and Nanyang County. "


    Cao Cao said with a smile: "it is worthy of the name that a virtuous son-in-law serves as a Taiwei. When I return to Sikong''s house, I will arrange it immediately. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Cao Cao said, "why?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "this matter is not urgent. After I leave Xudu, Sikong will issue an imperial edict under the emperor''s command."


    "Good!"


    Cao Cao responded directly.


    Can satisfy Zhang Xiu''s request, Cao Cao also felt relieved.


    Cao Cao continued to ask, "what''s the third condition?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "if Yang Biao and other senior officials in the court are willing to resign and leave Xudu, Sikong will not stop him."


    "No problem!"


    Cao Cao answered directly.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu''s intention was to poach some old ministers from the court. But for Cao Cao, Yang Biao was a burden, even a hindrance.


    Cao Cao was eager for these people to leave.


    Especially Liu Xie here, without Yang Biao and other senior officials, there is no strength.


    Cao Cao''s hand fell on the sword around his waist. The sword he carried with him was Yitian sword. Cao Cao took out the heaven reliant sword, handed it to Zhang Xiu and said, "this heaven reliant sword is for my son-in-law."


    "Thank you, Sikong!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile, looking happy.


    He got Cao Cao''s Yitian sword and the post of Taiwei. Even Yang Biao''s affairs were arranged in advance. For Zhang Xiu, she has completed a major task of this trip.


    Cao Cao stopped staying and said, "I still have some important things to deal with. I''ll leave first."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Sikong, please!"


    Cao Cao bowed his hand and left in a hurry with Yu Jin, Cao Anmin and others.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the back of Cao Cao''s leaving, and suddenly said, "Sikong, remind your subordinates. Don''t let anyone come again. If there are still people, I''m afraid you can''t keep the green sword in your hand. "


    After hearing this, Cao Cao stumbled and nearly fell to the ground. He really didn''t expect that when Zhang Xiu was on her way, she gave him a knife to mend his heart.


    So that Cao Cao''s anger rose at once. Out of the yard, Cao Cao said: "back to Sikong house.""Here it is


    Dianwei and others should give a reply.


    They left Laifu Inn and went straight to Sikong mansion. Cao Anmin and Yu Jin followed, both of whom were nervous. On the way back, Cao Cao asked Dianwei to send a messenger to inform his subordinates to discuss business in Sikong mansion.


    The alarm must be sounded.


    If there are people who commit crimes again, it is not the current way to deal with them.


    When Cao Cao returned to Sikong mansion, Xunyou, Xunyu, Guojia, Chengyu and other civil servants had arrived. In addition, Cao Hong, Xia Houyuan, Xia Houdun, Li Dian and other generals have all arrived.


    There are a lot of literati, ministers and generals.


    Cao Cao''s eyes swept over the crowd and fell on Yu Jin and Cao Anmin. He scolded: "bastard, don''t kneel down!"


    "Plop!"


    Yu Jin and Cao Anmin knelt down together.


    This scene surprised all the people present and did not understand what had happened.


    After Guo Jia''s hangover, he recovered today, but he was still a little depressed. After all, last night in the main hall, I drank a little too much, so far my temples are aching.


    Guo Jia was puzzled and asked, "my Lord, why is this?"


    A pair of eyes, all fall on Cao Cao''s body, unknown reason.


    Cao Cao said coldly, "Cao Anmin and Yu Jin are brave. Last night, after Zhang Xiu returned to her residence, they jointly arranged for 50 dead men to assassinate her. Not only failed, even the assassins were wiped out by Zhang Xiu. Early this morning, Zhang Xiu came to find me and asked me to go to Laifu inn to see the play and see him bring the dead to trial. "


    WOW!!


    When people heard this, they began to talk about it.


    Everyone was surprised.


    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin are brave enough to send someone to assassinate Zhang Xiu. In fact, it is necessary to assassinate Zhang Xiu, but the problem is that it is wrong to expose her whereabouts and followers.


    Cao Ang''s eyes were wide open. Cao Anmin had bewitched him before, but at that time, Cao ang refused directly. Unexpectedly, Cao Anmin didn''t want to repent.


    Cao Cao continued: "in order to exchange for these two idiots, Zhang Xiu took my sword from heaven. In addition, I have to appease Zhang Xiu and appoint her as the imperial court''s Taiwei. "


    "With the ban and Cao Anmin, it is not enough to succeed, but more to fail."


    "What a jerk


    When Cao Cao talked about his anger, he could no longer restrain his anger. He went directly to Yu Jin and Cao Anmin and kicked them out. With two bangs, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin were kicked to the ground at the same time.


    Cao Cao pointed to the two men and said, "two idiots, you are self righteous. As far as your ability is concerned, you still want to deal with Zhang Xiu and play with mud for a few more years. "


    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin fell to the ground. They did not dare to struggle. They could only let Cao Cao drink and scold.


    They are all familiar with Cao Cao.


    It is more clear that Cao Cao is very fond of relying on heaven and Qingchen sword, which is regarded as a treasure by Cao Cao, but now it is begged by Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Cao Anmin and Yu Jin both regretted it.


    Cao Anmin fell down on the ground and said, "Lord, I''m guilty of being humble. I''m willing to be punished."


    Yu Jin pleaded guilty and said, "I''m wrong in my humble duty. Please punish me."


    "Well, well, well, you should punish me, and I will help you."


    Cao Cao was so angry that he immediately ordered: "come on, drag these two men out to our own officials, and each of them will be responsible for 50 military staffs. He was demoted to an ordinary soldier and no longer held military posts. Two idiots, I''m angry when I look at them. "


    The soldiers entered and dragged Cao Anmin and Yu Jin out.


    There is no one to dissuade!


    Because Yu Jin and Cao Anmin deserve what they deserve, knowing that they are not suitable to assassinate Zhang Xiu, they even think they are right to assassinate Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 467

    Cao Anmin and Yu Jin were dragged out. Not long after, there was a dull crash outside the hall. A stick of fall, that hit on the buttock meat of the impact sound, clear into the hall.


    Cao Cao''s eyes swept over the crowd and said in a deep voice: "although there was a war between our official and Zhang Xiu before, our first priority now is not to deal with Zhang Xiu, but to solve the problem of Xuzhou in the coming year."


    After a pause, Cao Cao said again: "now that Zhang Xiu has arrived in Xudu, who dares to do it again? Don''t blame me for not being polite. If you don''t kill people, isn''t your sword sharp? "


    Everyone answered.


    The expression on each face was extremely solemn.


    They are all followers of Cao Cao and know his character. This time, Cao Anmin and Yu ban really angered Cao Cao. For quite a long time, they were not reused.


    Cao Cao beat the generals to leave, leaving behind Xun you, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu.


    Cao Cao said: "when Zhang Xiu came to Xudu, the emperor ordered him to report on his work. The emperor''s intention was to seize the manufacturing technology of rice paper in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Next, how can we guide the development of things


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu is not simple. It''s not recommended to do it in a humble position. We don''t need to take any action before the emperor conflicts with Zhang Xiu. "


    Cheng Yu said: "I don''t suggest that we do it. After all, we don''t have any conflicts with Zhang Xiu."


    Everyone nodded, because Cao Cao couldn''t attract Zhang Xiu. The best way to deal with the current situation is to wait and see the change and not take any action.


    Seeing that all the people agreed, Cao Cao said nothing more.


    On the other side, in the raffle inn.


    Zhang Xiu sat in the yard, thinking about the next arrangement.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the yard.


    But Wang Yue entered. He strode up to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, I''ll meet Kong Ronglai."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    You know, the relationship between him and Kong Rong is not very harmonious. Even last night, Kong Rong came to apologize in person, but for Zhang Xiu, the contradiction between him and Kong Rong is not so easy to resolve.


    After all, Kong Rong is Kong Rong. He doesn''t know what he thinks.


    Wang Yue went to inform him that in a short time, Kong Rong entered the yard.


    Zhang Xiu had enough face on the surface, got up to greet each other, and said with a smile, "Wen Ju Gong!"


    Kong Rong saluted and said, "General Zhang!"


    Zhang Xiu beckoned Kong Rong to sit down and asked, "I don''t know what happened when Wen Ju Gong came to visit us."


    Kong Rong said with a smile, "I''m here to go to General Zhang."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t dare to be careless about Kong Rong''s defection. After all, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know what Kong Rong''s heart is thinking.


    Kong Rong sat upright and said, "there used to be some grudges between general Zhang and me. But that''s all in the past. General Zhang must be curious. Why should I submit to you? "


    "In fact, the reason is very simple. The emperor regarded me as abandoning my son. He abandoned me and humiliated me for the sake of only interests."


    "You choose your ministers, and so do your ministers."


    "Kong Rong is willing to be a pawn of General Zhang."


    Kong Rong continued: "let general Zhang know that this time the emperor called you to Xu du to report your work, in fact, in order to seize the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper in general Zhang''s hands."


    Zhang xiudao: "this matter is not difficult to guess."


    Kong Rong didn''t ask Zhang Xiu how to deal with it. He continued: "this time, I will resign to your majesty. Then, I will follow general Zhang to Chang''an and ask him to take him in."


    Today''s situation, Kong Rong is seen, Zhang Xiu is very strong.


    Even if it is Cao Cao, it is necessary to stabilize Zhang Xiu.


    Kong Rong could submit to Cao Cao, but for him, he didn''t like the eunuch like Cao Cao. In Kong Rong''s opinion, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts background is stronger than Cao Cao''s.


    Therefore, he chose Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart at the moment, however, was weighing up and said in a deep voice: "wenjugong, how do you let me believe you?"


    Kong Rong said: "no matter what, I am sincere."


    Zhang Xiu said, "well, then do one thing."


    Kong Rong said, "what''s the matter?"


    With a confident look on her face, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "next, the emperor will surely summon me to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. It is impossible to persuade success with the ability of the emperor alone. Next, the emperor is likely to call you, Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and others together to persuade me. Then, you stand up against it. I don''t care what you say, I have to oppose it. "


    Brush!


    Kong Rong''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu put forward a slightly harsh condition, which completely eliminated the possibility that he would please the little emperor again.


    Kong Rong is familiar with Liu Xie''s character.


    Liu Xie attaches great importance to his own interests. In particular, Liu Xie''s Xuan paper manufacturing technology of Zhang Xiu is a must. Once Kong Rong stands up against it, it is likely to become a thorn in Liu Xie''s eye.It''s a certain thing.


    The expression on Kong Rong''s face was also a touch of hesitation.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "wenjugong, how to do it is your business. As long as you agree, I will unconditionally trust you, believe you, willing to accept you. If you don''t want to, I don''t want to. It''s up to you to decide exactly what to do. "


    Kong Rong''s constant choice.


    It''s hard to decide.


    But Kong Rong knew that if he missed the present and wanted to submit to Zhang Xiu in the future, it would be impossible.


    Kong Rong gritted his teeth and said, "I''ll do it."


    Zhang xiudao said: "wenjugong is forthright. I believe wenjugong will be like a fish in water under my command. When I return to Chang''an, I will make arrangements. "


    Kong Rong said: "my Lord, I have a suggestion for my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s the suggestion?"


    Kong Rong said: "now Cao Cao is the chief official of the imperial court. Yuan Shao monopolized the north and served as a general. Under such circumstances, the LORD was only the captain of Sili school, and his official position was somewhat lower. Why don''t you take this opportunity to please the emperor for more benefits, or at least for greater official positions? "


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "this matter has been done."


    "Ah


    Kong Rong looked surprised.


    Zhang Xiu also did not hide, said: "I got Cao Sikong''s promise. At the end of this report, Cao Sikong will issue an imperial edict in the name of the emperor and worship me as the Taiwei. Soon, I will be one of the three gongs! "


    "Hiss!"


    Kong Rong takes a deep breath.


    Worthy of Zhang Xiu, these things have been considered clearly.


    Kong Rong closed his hands and said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "wenjugong was born in Qingliu and had a wide range of contacts. I have great respect for people like Wen Jugong. It would be better if Wen Ju Gong could invite more people to Chang''an. "


    For Qingliu scholars, Zhang Xiu also likes it.


    It''s all about connections.


    It''s also public opinion.


    Of course, if Zhang Xiu does not have such conditions, Zhang Xiu does not care. However, if he had such an opportunity to recruit more scholars, he would like to.


    Self strength, the stronger the better.


    Kong Rong said: "the Lord''s arrangement, humble duty should go all out."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and chatted with Kong Rong. Kong Rong in front of Zhang Xiu, no shelf, a respectful attitude, the atmosphere is quite harmonious.


    Today''s Kong Rong is as proud as ever.


    He was completely subdued by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 468

    When Zhang Xiu and Kong Rong chat, Wang Yue strides in and stands respectfully beside Zhang Xiu. Seeing this, Kong Rong must have something else to do, so he stood up and left without delay.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang yuechen reported: "my Lord, I have just received an invitation letter to invite you to the Liushui Pavilion in the south of Xudu city tomorrow morning. The people who attended the meeting were some of Xu Du''s celebrities. "


    Zhang xiudao: "who presided over it?"


    Wang Yue replied: "the Wenhui of Liushui Pavilion is Fude, the eldest son of Fuwan, the father of the state. He is the person in charge behind the water Pavilion, and he is also the calling person of the water Pavilion. "


    Vold!


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    It seems that the existence of Fu Wan is not strong, but Fu Wan''s son is active.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "you can get back to the news. Tomorrow morning, I will go to Liushui pavilion to attend the conference. I hope this essay will not disappoint me. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    When Wang Yue comes back, Zhang Xiu asks Wang Yue to arrange the royal guards to investigate the news of Fude and Liushui Pavilion. Then, Zhang Xiu takes people to leave Laifu Inn and go to Yang Biao''s residence.


    Yang Biao now, though too often, is actually a casual official.


    Cao Cao was extremely afraid of Yang Biao.


    It''s not only Yang Biao''s own background and appeal, but also his own ability. It is an invisible threat for such people to stay in the court, so Cao Cao has been suppressing yang Biao.


    Looking at the people in Cao Cao''s family, whether they are Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and so on, no one can compare with Yang Biao in terms of fame. Even if Kong Rong is in front of Yang Biao, he is also a younger generation.


    It''s not a joke that the Yang family has been courting many times.


    When Zhang Xiu came to Yang Biao ''


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu said thanks and went in with the porter. Around the front hall, through the corridor, and finally came to Yang Biao''s study.


    In the study, there is anthracite burning.


    The hot air diffused from the charcoal basin, dispersing the chill in the room.


    After Zhang Xiu entered, he arched his hand and said, "I''ve met Mr. Yang."


    Yang Biao replied, "General Zhang, you are welcome. Please sit down."


    After thanking Zhang Xiu, she lifted her robe and sat down in the room.


    Yang Biao said: "the rice paper invented by general Zhang is really a sharp weapon of the country, which is beneficial to the country and the people. With rice paper, it is much easier for scholars to read. Back then, when we were reading, we had to copy the classics to bamboo slips because we couldn''t recite them. But bamboo slips are not easy to make, it is a lot of trouble. Now there is rice paper. It''s so good. "


    After a pause, Yang Biao said: "this anthracite is also a good thing. In previous years, although charcoal was used to drive away the cold, the consumption of charcoal was fast and the heat was insufficient, so it was worse after all. This anthracite is really good. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Yang Gong has been praised falsely."


    Yang Biao stroked his beard and said again, "I already know about Hongnong county. At that time, general Zhang refused Yang Yong''s request, which was a good decision. Yang Yong, who stayed at the ancestral home of the Yang family, had great ambitions and few talents, and was not enough to be the prefect of a county. If he was the prefect of Hongnong County, he would be wrong for the country and the people. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I didn''t expect that Yang Gong knew about it. In a word, the Yang family has made a great contribution to me. It was a helpless move to refuse Yang Yong''s request at that time. Yang Gongneng understood that Zhang Xiu admired her for her high integrity. "


    Yang Biao sighed: "I''m old and decadent. I don''t know what''s noble. In my family, I''m not helpful; in my country, I can''t do my duty. I''m sorry for my ancestors


    Zhang Xiu said: "the current situation is so, there is no way."


    Yang Biao said: "Xiuer has been intelligent since childhood, has a rather rebellious temperament, and has high eyes and low hands. When this boy deals with things, he''s often impatient and thoughtless. I''d like to ask general Zhang to be considerate. "


    Yang Biao has no objection to his son''s loyalty to Zhang Xiu.


    He has no future with his son.


    Zhang Xiu smiles and praises: "speaking of it, dezu has no rebellious performance under my command, nor has he high minded and low handed. He''s a long history with me. He''s like a fish in water. It''s very good. "


    When Yang Biao heard the speech, he was very happy.


    Yang Xiu was the only son under his knees, and he had high hopes for him.


    It''s just that he knows Yang Xiu''s temperament. He didn''t expect that Yang Xiu''s temperament, under Zhang Xiu''s command, could be like a fish in water.


    In Yang Biao''s heart, he was greatly relieved.


    After Zhang Xiu and Yang Biao said something, they said, "I come to visit Yang Gong in the hope that Yang Gong can leave Xudu and live in Chang''an."


    Yang Biao did not immediately refuse, said: "I go to Chang''an, what to do?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "now there are many wars in the world, and Taixue has long been abandoned. Although there are countless scholars in the world, it is difficult for many scholars to study and find famous teachers. I would like to invite Mr. Yang to Chang''an to set up academies and impart knowledge to scholars, so that scholars in the world can have a place to study and not have no way to study. "When Yang Biao heard this, his pale brows rose and he looked surprised.


    Zhang Xiu''s solicitation is new.


    Yang Biao, who has experienced ups and downs of official life, has long been used to big waves. He even guessed that Zhang Xiu would attract him. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu asked him to set up an academy.


    This is not a real solicitation.


    Because Zhang Xiu did not give Yang Biao an official position. Yang Biao came to Chang''an and established academies in Chang''an. He also worked for Zhang Xiu and trained talents for her.


    This is the best place for Zhang Xiu.


    Last night, Yang Biao saw Zhang Xiu''s drinking capacity, and even more saw the scene that Zhang Xiu let Cao Cao eat shriveled and let Cao Cao''s subordinates eat shriveled. He knew that Zhang Xiu was not simple.


    This time, I really realized it.


    Today, Yang Biao has nothing to do every day. Although he has been in charge too often, he has no power in his hands and can''t preside over government affairs.


    Yang Biao is not happy in Xudu.


    He is a scholar and has the mind of managing the world and helping the country. But now unable to save the country, unable to rectify the situation in court, he wanted to do something down-to-earth.


    This is Yang Biao''s idea.


    Zhang Xiu''s words make Yang Biao''s heart beat, but Yang Biao''s heart also has some worries.


    Yang Biao said in a deep voice, "General Zhang, I have a problem."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the problem?"


    Yang Biao said: "in troubled times, if general Zhang has a chance to help a big man, will he do his best?"


    Zhang Xiu is not false thinking cableway: "Yang Gong is a wise man, in front of you, lying is meaningless, and I don''t want to cheat Yang Gong. If you can help me, I will help myself. If I can''t help it, I can only go back and ask for self-protection. If you are poor, you will be able to help yourself. If you are successful, you will be able to help the whole world


    When talking, Zhang Xiu hides her real thoughts, but doesn''t say that she wants to compete with the rest of the world and end the family name of Liu.


    After all, Yang Biao was an old minister of the Han Dynasty.


    After hearing this, Yang Biao nodded with satisfaction and said, "this is the truth. If you can help, you can help. Alas, after all, this is a big Han. Up to now, it is full of holes. But even if I wanted to, would Cao Cao let people go? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "please rest assured, I have already talked about it with Cao Cao. As long as Yang Gong is willing to leave, Cao Cao will let people go and will not stop them. In addition, Yang Gong''s friends are willing to go to Chang''an, and Cao Cao is willing to release people. "


    "That''s good!"


    Yang Biao answered frankly.


    He was even more moved by Zhang Xiu''s plan. To persuade him, he had arranged his way back.

 Chapter 469

    North of Xudu City, in Fu''s house.


    Backyard, in Ford''s yard.


    Fu De was nearly thirty years old, and was born with elegant and elegant appearance. But in his eyes and brows, there was a sharp look, which made people feel sharp.


    At the moment, Fude is looking at the news of reply letters one by one. When Fude sees that Zhang Xiu is willing to participate in the literature meeting of Liushui Pavilion, he smiles on Junyi''s face.


    With the participation of Zhang Xiu, the Liushui Pavilion literary meeting became a success.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from the gate of the yard.


    The housekeeper of your family came in and bowed himself and said, "young master, please go."


    "I see!"


    Vold nodded and answered.


    He stood up, shook his coat, went out of the yard and went straight to the study. As soon as he entered Fu Wan''s study, Fu De closed his hands, saluted Fu Wan and said, "son, see your father!"


    Fu Wan waved his hand and said, "sit down!"


    "Thank you, father!"


    After Ford thanks, sit down respectfully.


    Fu Wan stares at Fu De, there is a touch of pride and worry in his deep eyes. The reason why he is proud is that his son Fude has the courage and responsibility, which is the pride of the Fu family. The reason why Fu Wan was worried was that Fu De planned everywhere to fight for the emperor''s power and help him control the imperial platform.


    In Fu Wan''s opinion, this is quite dangerous.


    Fu Wan zhengse said: "I heard that you are going to hold the Liushui Pavilion literature meeting tomorrow. What''s more, Zhang Xiu was invited to participate? "


    "Yes


    Vold nodded.


    Fu Wan said: "Zhang Xiu is not an easy person. You want to plan Zhang Xiu, in the end, you may let yourself fall into it. Last night, his majesty hosted a banquet for Zhang Xiu. Cao Cao''s people were humiliated by Zhang Xiu one after another. I don''t want you to plan for Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu is very dangerous. "


    Fu De said with a smile: "father, I don''t plan for Zhang Xiu, and I won''t deal with her."


    Fu Wan''s face was full of wisdom and understanding, and he said in a deep voice: "you think I don''t know. You will invite Wang Fu, Wu Shuo, Zhong Ji and others to attend the meeting tomorrow. What these people want is to join hands with Cao Cao. But your strength alone is not enough. "


    "Father, how do you know if you don''t try? My younger sister is the mother of a country, and my son is greatly favored by the emperor. If he does not serve the emperor and earn a peaceful and prosperous life for my younger sister, he will be a seven foot man in vain. "


    "You Son of a bitch


    Fu Wan''s eyes were cold, and he said, "what do you know? It''s not a joke. Once something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable. You think about your little sister, but have you ever thought about your family? "


    "Thought about it!"


    The expression on Fu De''s face was extremely serious, and he said: "although we plan to deal with Cao Cao, the family has considerable risks. However, when it comes to the imperial court, the country and the younger sister, how can we cherish ourselves. What''s more, I didn''t confront Cao Cao head-on. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After hearing this, Fu was very angry.


    As an old Youzi who has experienced the ups and downs of official life, Fu Wan is used to protecting himself with wisdom and does not like to put himself in danger. When he heard his son''s words, he yelled, "are you crazy, even ignoring this family?"


    Fu De held his head up, straightened his chest, and said in a voice: "it''s because I want this family, I have to take into account the family style of the Fu family, that I will actively run."


    "The Fu family has suffered from the emperor''s kindness. If they can''t share their worries for the country, where is the family tradition of the Fu family?"


    "I''m the son of my father. As a son, I can''t blame my father for his actions or comment on his conduct. But please don''t interfere in your son''s affairs


    Fude said, "my son is worthy of heaven and earth when he works."


    Brush!


    Fu Wan was even more furious.


    The so-called vold can''t blame him for what he has done, that is, vold doesn''t look up to what he has done.


    Fu Wan said, "how can you understand that the world is dangerous?"


    Fude said, "my son is now nearly thirty years old, and he is no longer a child of yellow mouth. Especially when his son has already married and has more children under his knees, how can he be a yellow mouthed child? "


    Fu Wan said: "tomorrow, don''t go out."


    "How can we make a change in what we have set down?" Ford said. Tomorrow, I have to go to the water Pavilion. The Liushui Pavilion is the most important link. We should not lose anything. "


    Fu Wan clenched his fist and wanted to repay Fu De.


    This son of a bitch!


    It''s so disobedient.


    After Fu finished, he still had to open his mouth to persuade him, but without waiting for Fu to speak, Fu De took the lead in saying, "since the father has nothing else to do, then the son will leave."


    "Go away, you go away for me!"


    Fu finished angry face red ears up, yelled.


    "My son is leaving!"


    After a respectful salute, Ford turned and stepped down.


    Fu finished a person sitting in the study, face a change again and again. He never thought that his son would be so stubborn, and he had to deal with Cao Cao.Although he was angry, he was proud of his son.


    Because Ford is a man of persistence and courage.


    "Somebody


    I''ll give you an order.


    The voice falls, housekeeper enters, bow body way: "master, what do you have to order?"


    Fu Wan said: "tomorrow''s Liushui Pavilion literature meeting, you must arrange people, carefully watch, can''t make mistakes. Once de''er makes a move to overstep it, he can''t let anyone come back to report it. "


    "I understand!"


    The housekeeper nodded and answered.


    After vold made the arrangements, vold went back to his residence.


    He sat in the study, his eyes shining, murmuring: "little sister, big brother will make you a real mother of a country. Big brother will also be a big family admired by countless people. I''ll never let it go. "


    In his heart, there is a big wild hope.


    He wants to get rid of Cao Cao and let the Fu family take power. He wants to be a man who can turn the tide.


    This is Ford''s wild hope.


    Fude stayed in the house, thinking about the affairs of Liushui Pavilion. In the twinkling of an eye, in the early morning of the next day, vold was dressed neatly, with a jacket inside, a broad collar shirt outside, and a long crown on his head.


    After he was dressed up, he left Fu''s house and went to liushuige.


    He is the host. He can''t be late. He has to arrive earlier. After vode arrived, he quickly arranged it. The attendants in the water Pavilion began to be busy and arranged the banquet place again.


    The cultural meeting of the water Pavilion is held on the second floor of the water Pavilion.


    This is a special elegant room.


    The room is large enough to accommodate dozens of people. The burning of bituminous coal in the room dispels the cold and makes the room warm as spring. Vold was in the middle of the room for a while and felt a little hot.


    He checked it and came to the door to wait.


    Soon after, the invited people arrived one after another, and one by one the officials of the court arrived. All of them were welcomed by Fude himself and sent to the elegant room on the second floor.


    When most of the people arrived, Zhang Xiu had not come yet.


    Fu De''s heart is a little nervous, because Zhang Xiu is the most important person.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    The axle turns and the carriage comes.


    Zhang Xiu''s carriage stops outside the water Pavilion. Deng Zhan quickly got out of the carriage, lifted the curtain of the door, and followed Zhang Xiu.


    Fude met Zhang Xiu with Fude yesterday. When he saw Zhang Xiu coming, he immediately stepped forward with a bright smile and said, "I''ve met General Zhang in xiafude."

 Chapter 470

    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn, and nodded: "Mr. Fu, you are so polite!"


    Fu De said, "General Zhang, please!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    They went to the elegant room on the second floor. At this moment, Wang Fu, Wu Shuo and Zhong Ji gathered in the elegant room, and the rest of the literati also arrived, talking in a low voice.


    When Zhang Xiu appeared, everyone''s eyes fell on her.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was so young and even more handsome, all the officials in the court were filled with emotion that there were no empty scholars under the great fame.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu.


    Fu De and Zhang Xiu sit on the theme.


    Vode clapped his hands. In an instant, a servant came in and put on the meat and wine.


    Fu De put a smile on his face and said: "General Zhang killed Xiongnu and killed Li Xi and Guo Si. That''s really powerful. It makes us aspire to it. Many of us, in this lifetime, can''t match the merits of General Zhang. Today, I''m very lucky to invite General Zhang to the water Pavilion. Everybody, let''s drink to General Zhang. "


    "To General Zhang!"


    When they all opened their mouths and looked at Zhang Xiu, they all had admiration in their eyes.


    They really can''t compare with Zhang Xiu.


    "Thank you very much, Zhang Xiu. I''ll do it first."


    Zhang Xiu took the glass and drank it. After a glass of wine, Zhang Xiu looks calm, without the slightest restraint. Facing countless taxis and officials, Zhang Xiu has no fear.


    He came to the party only to see what vold intended.


    Come on, vold.


    That''s all!


    After drinking, Zhongji stood up and said with a smile, "I met General Zhang in xiachangshui Xiaowei Zhongji. Last night, there was a banquet in the palace, which was listed in the next section. However, in the next section, the Wei Wei was at the bottom of the line, so general Zhang didn''t notice me


    "Last night, general Zhang fought against all the people under Cao Cao''s command and defeated Cao Cao''s prestige."


    "Admirable!"


    "More amazing!"


    Zhong Ji said with emotion: "since Cao Cao moved his capital here, the political affairs of the imperial court all depend on Cao Cao. Cao Cao has the final say in everything. "The emperor can not speak at all."


    "Cao Cao, who despises the emperor and has no respect for the law, is guilty to the utmost."


    "General Zhang''s action is very exciting."


    "This is the only thing that should come to light."


    Zhong Ji picked up the wine bottle and solemnly said, "I''ll give general Zhang a glass of wine. General Zhang, I''ll do it first."


    With that, Zhongji drinks up.


    Zhang Xiu light said: "kind of school Wei polite, kind of school Wei country of dry minister, I admire."


    Finish saying, Zhang Xiu also drinks.


    He knew that he was one of the parties to the imperial edict. Zhong Ji, Wang Fu, Wu Shuo, Dong Cheng and others conspired to kill Cao Cao. Finally, the matter leaked out and was killed by Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu admired the courage of Zhongji.


    Knowing that Cao Cao is powerful, he will not turn back.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not approve of the method of compiling. Because the little emperor Liu Xie was not a wise master. Such a person, even if he plays for him, is nothing.


    It''s just loyalty!


    But everyone has their own choice. It''s a choice.


    Zhang Xiu did not interfere.


    After Zhongji opened his mouth, Wang Fu, Wu Shuo and others toasted Zhang Xiu and told him about Cao Cao''s evilness. They all wanted to kill Cao Cao. And with such words continue to say, people''s emotions gradually angry, began to scold Cao Cao.


    All the people scolded Cao Cao for being a traitor and a class of Dong Zhuo.


    To these words, Zhang Xiu listens in the ear, but did not express an opinion. Zhang Xiu agrees with Cao Cao''s saying that without him, the world would not know how many people would be emperors and how many would be kings.


    Without Cao Cao, the Great Han would have died long ago.


    It was Cao Cao who propped up the last great Han Dynasty with his own strength.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s view.


    Fu De saw that they all denounced him, but Zhang Xiu didn''t speak. After he coughed twice, they all kept silent and stopped talking.


    Fu De said with a smile: "General Zhang, Cao Cao is holding the son of heaven. He has no king''s law, and his party shares the same views. People like Cao Cao are restless if they don''t kill. Such people must be eliminated. I don''t know. What does general Zhang think? "


    Zhang Xiu did not answer, asked: "you want to kill Cao Cao?"


    "Yes


    Fu De, Zhong Ji and others answered together.


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "if you want to kill Cao Cao, how do you plan to do it? To kill Cao Cao, there must be a detailed constitution. Otherwise, it will be in vain. "


    "What we need now is general Zhang," vold said. With the strength of General Zhang, he could fight into Yanzhou and defeat Cao Cao. My suggestion is that after general Zhang returned to Chang''an, he would set up troops to attack Cao Cao. At that time, we, as insiders, will coordinate with general Zhang in Xudu. "Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "if I send troops, what benefits can I get?"


    "Good?"


    Fu De''s eyes narrowed, and a smile suddenly appeared in the corner of his mouth. When Zhang Xiu said the benefits, Fu De was steadfast in his heart. If Zhang Xiu is determined to send out troops, it''s doubtful.


    It''s just so. It''s more convincing.


    The world is prosperous.


    That''s what interests are.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t ask for any benefits, Fu De can''t believe Zhang Xiu.


    Fu De said: "as long as general Zhang is willing to fight, after the event, general Zhang will take the post of Taiwei. General Zhang always takes charge of the troops in the world. General Zhang, what do you think? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "I just entered Xudu, and I have got Cao Cao''s promise. Next, Cao Cao will appoint me as Taiwei. Of course, the appointment of Cao Cao is the appointment of the emperor. Do you think I need the post of Taiwei? "


    Brush!


    Vold''s face suddenly changed.


    He thought that his proposal of Taiwei''s position would attract Zhang Xiu and make her agree. Unexpectedly, it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to be a foreign aid.


    Fu De thought carefully and said, "what do you think of General Zhang as a general?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not enough. I''m not only going to be a general, but also to command all the troops in the world. I also want to take part in the affairs of the central government, not just military affairs, but the integration of military affairs and government affairs. "


    Vold''s face changed again and again.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu has such a big appetite.


    Zhang Xiu noticed Fu De''s expression, but she laughed in her heart. Where he would fight to kill Cao Cao is nothing but perfunctory Fu De.


    I didn''t expect that. Ford took it seriously.


    With Zhang Xiu''s strength, there is no need to respond to Fu De, because attacking Cao Cao is a stupid move.


    At this time, Zhongji stood up.


    With a look of righteous indignation, Zhong Ji said in a deep voice: "General Zhang, it''s related to national affairs. This is to serve for the emperor. Why do you have to talk about the terms? Are you not the official appointed by the emperor. Don''t you feel the majesty of the Royal grace? "


    "You are a minister of the Han Dynasty, so you should send troops and attack Cao Cao," he said


    Zhang Xiu sneers.


    It''s a moral kidnapping.


    The last thing he likes is such moral kidnapping.


    Zhang Xiu sneered twice and said: "in the past, you were normal. But now, I think you''re stupid. You''re a fool. "


    When I heard the words, I was very angry.


    Zhang Xiu deceives others too much.

 Chapter 471

    Zhongji said coldly, "Zhang Xiu, what do you mean?"


    He was always loyal and devoted to the emperor, and wanted to restore the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty and the glory of the imperial court. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu drinks and scolds him so much that he has no face.


    It''s intolerable.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are stupid. You are stupid. Didn''t I make clear what I said just now. Or, you have an ear problem and can''t understand people. "


    At this moment, the edge of Zhang Xiu will be exposed.


    When entering the elegant room, Zhang Xiu was gentle and elegant, a school of elegant literati demeanor.


    Now, it''s full of swearing.


    Even Ford frowned. This kind of Zhang Xiu is beyond his expectation and makes him very uncomfortable. However, Ford did not intervene. For the time being, he just watched the change and all this happened.


    Zhongji was born as a general with a hot temper. He was humiliated by Zhang Xiu and stood up.


    He went to Zhang Xiu, rolled up his sleeves and said: "Zhang Xiu, people are mutual. You respect me, and I respect you. However, you are so conceited that there is no one in your eyes. Today, Ben will teach you a lesson and let you know that heaven is high and earth is rich. I don''t care what kind of commander you are, whether you are useful or not. If you offend me, you deserve your bad luck. "


    With that, Zhong Ji swung his fist and hit it.


    Zhang Xiu stood up, slightly sideways, to avoid the kind of series hit a punch.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu lightly said a, the foot ascends to lift, quickly kick out.


    "Pa!"


    The powerful force hits Zhongji''s belly,


    the power explodes on the sole of his foot. If Zhongji''s body is struck by lightning, he can''t hold his body, so he flies backward and falls to the ground.


    After the landing of Zhongji, he snorted, and his whole body was like falling apart.


    There was a look of horror in his eyes.


    How is that possible?


    How can Zhang Xiu be so powerful.


    You know, he is very good at cultivating and editing martial arts, which is far more powerful than Wang Fu, Wu Shuo, Dong Cheng and others. But in front of Zhang Xiu, he was kicked to the ground without a move.


    Zhang Xiu stepped forward to Zhongji and looked at Zhongji who fell to the ground. She stepped on Zhongji''s chest and said coldly, "if you are a person like Zhongji, you should be resourceful. If you don''t have resourcefulness, you should have martial arts. If you don''t have martial arts, you can''t succeed in writing. If you want to save the emperor, just dream."


    "What Ben will do is Ben''s business. Can you blame him?"


    "When I was going to kill Xiongnu, where were you


    "Where were you when I was going to kill Li Xi and Guo Si?"


    "Where were you when we were going to pacify Guanzhong?"


    "Ben Jiang has his own scale in his mind. He knows what to do, not what you want to measure. It is not good enough to fight against Cao Cao. Which soldier under his command will fight. "


    "Is it by roaring alone?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s useful to roar alone. Go to Xu Du and roar everywhere. Just a great general, how ever was he in the eyes of this general. If it wasn''t for Mr. Fu''s kindness, I would never have agreed. Let this general send troops, is just the condition


    "You, you..."


    Zhong Ji said: "Zhang Xiu, you deceive people too much."


    "Get out of the way!"


    After Zhang Xiusong opened his foot, he kicked it out again. He kicked Zhongji on his shoulder. In a flash, Zhongji was like a ball, and he was kicked to one side. He curled up on the ground and felt extremely painful.


    Fu De saw this, but he couldn''t ignore it. He said, "General Zhang, I''m so rude. Please don''t worry about it. Your terms, I promise. As long as you are willing to fight and win Cao Cao, you will serve as a general and participate in the political affairs of the central government. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth raised a smile.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhong Ji again and said, "Mr. Fu, it''s better to use less people like Zhong Ji. Such a warrior as him is useless to the state and the court, but he is impulsive and evil. Maybe one day he will be struck by thunder and it will affect you. "


    Fu De said: "General Zhang''s teachings, Fu De bear in mind."


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu knows Fu De''s intention and turns to leave.


    No stay at all.


    The reason why he agreed to Fude was to be perfunctory, to stabilize Fude, and to avoid Fude''s obstruction, which would affect his trip in Xudu. After Zhang Xiu leaves, Zhong Ji drags his tired and painful body to his own seat.


    Zhong Ji looked at Fu De and said, "Mr. Fu, a man like Zhang Xiu is wild and rebellious. If he holds the court, he will be the next Dong Zhuo. To cooperate with Zhang Xiu is to seek skin from a tiger. Is that appropriate? "


    Wang Fu echoed: "it''s true. Just now, Zhang Xiu''s side was extremely violent. I''m afraid it''s not a good thing for such a person to enter the DPRK. "


    The rest echoed.


    Everyone''s impression of Zhang Xiu is not very good.Fu De stroked the short beard under his jaw, looked calm, and continued: "ladies and gentlemen, even if Zhang Xiu is violent, can it be worse than the present situation? After being eunuch, Cao Cao controlled the government and ignored the emperor. "


    "Zhang Xiu is really crazy, but as long as Zhang Xiu attacks Cao Cao, even if Zhang Xiu can win, her strength is limited. At that time, Zhang Xiu needs us to maintain the situation. "


    "In this way, we will take advantage of the situation and control more power."


    "This is the chance to revitalize Hanshi."


    Fu De said: "if we have enough strength, we can eradicate Zhang Xiu and take over her strength. This is my plan. I don''t mind if Zhang Xiu is crazy. What I plan is the future. "


    After hearing this, Zhong Ji was shocked and said, "Mr. Fu is far sighted and will admire you."


    Wang Fu also said, "what you said is true."


    Under the words of fodder, everyone was no longer angry, but happy. At first, people were a little angry, but at this time, they returned to normal.


    Fude and the others pushed the cup and exchanged the cups. The atmosphere was very warm.


    After Zhang Xiu returned to Laifu Inn, Guo Jia came to Cao Cao''s study in Cao Cao''s Sikong mansion.


    Cao Cao said, "why is fengxiao here?"


    Guo Jia lifted up his robe and sat down. He said with a straight face: "I''ve just received the news from the spies. Fude invited Zhang Xiu to the water Pavilion for dinner. During this period, Fude asked Zhang Xiu to set up troops from Chang''an to attack the Lord. "


    Cao Cao said, "what does Zhang Xiu say?"


    Guo Jia said: "at that time, Zhang Xiu threatened her interests. She wanted to hold the post of general and control political affairs. This move angered the editor. At that time, Zhong Ji started with Zhang Xiu, but he was cleaned up by Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Xiu finally agreed to Fu De''s request, turned around and left, leaving Fu De and his party to stay in the water Pavilion. Fu De''s plan is to take advantage of the situation to control the government and even kill Zhang Xiu when Zhang Xiu and the Lord are both defeated. "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Fude is young, but his mind is not simple."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Cao Cao chuckled when he heard the speech and said, "Fude is a little kid, and he wants to plan his own official. There are quite a few people who want to stir up war. "


    Guo Jia said: "in a word, Fude is easy to cheat. Zhang Xiu made a promise, and he really thought that Zhang Xiu would send troops. According to his humble position, Fude was sold by Zhang Xiu. Maybe he had to help Zhang Xiu count the money. "


    "That''s the meaning," Cao Cao said


    After a pause, Cao Cao said: "according to my understanding of Zhang Xiu, his focus is in Guanzhong, so it is impossible to fight with us. Just pay attention to it, and don''t worry too much about it. "


    Guo Jia said: "I understand my humble position, but for Fu De, my Lord still has to let it go?"


    "Don''t worry about it!"


    On the one hand, he is the eldest son of Fu Wan and the eldest brother of the queen. On the other hand, if we can keep fodder jumping up and down, we can get information about them. Why not? If Fude is eradicated today, there will be Liu De tomorrow and Zhou de the day after tomorrow. Such people, keep the best


    Guo Jiayan said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Cao Cao said, "hasn''t the emperor summoned Zhang Xiu yet?"


    Guo Jia shook his head and said, "I haven''t got any news yet. This time, the little emperor can hold back. But it''s just these days. "


    Cao Cao nodded: "pay close attention to the movement of the little emperor, we must know the news in the palace. I hope the little emperor won''t let me down and get the manufacturing technology of rice paper. "


    Guo Jia also nodded his approval.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Cao Cao said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open, but XiahouDun strode in.


    Xia Houdun''s left eye was blindfolded, and he said: "Lord, today''s martial arts in the army, Dianwei, xuchu, caohong and other military generals, all participate in the war, please come to watch."


    "OK, let''s have a look."


    There was a touch of excitement between Cao Cao''s eyebrows.


    Fighting in the army is a rule set by Cao Cao. A contest should be held once a month. No matter who is in the army or who is in charge, they can take part in it. But most of the time, it''s the battle between the main generals in the army.


    Because ordinary soldiers are not strong enough.


    This is also a way to let the soldiers vent and play for a long time, and at the same time to encourage the soldiers'' fighting spirit.


    Cao Cao changed his mind and said, "fengxiao, send a letter to Zhang Xiu and invite him to the barracks. I, Cao Cao''s sons, are all howling athletes. Let Zhang Xiu see the elegant demeanor of the soldiers in the army, so as to frighten Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia immediately responded.


    As soon as Xia Houdun heard of Zhang xiulai, he rubbed his fists and said, "I''ve been practicing martial arts in my humble position during this period of time. Zhang Xiu is very good at martial arts. When he arrives, I''ll ask him for advice. "


    "Good!"


    Cao Cao''s eyes were full of praise and said: "Yuan rang, I look forward to your performance. Let''s goAs soon as he brushed his big sleeve, he walked ahead.


    Guojia and XiahouDun followed, and went straight to the barracks.

 Chapter 472

    In the Laifu inn.


    After Zhang Xiu came back, she had nothing to do and spent her time reading in the inn. After all, this is Xu Du. Zhang Xiu didn''t go around and stay in the mansion waiting for news.


    Wang Yue is also in the yard. He protects Zhang Xiu''s safety. Seeing Zhang Xiu sitting in the pavilion, it''s snowy all around. The scene of quiet reading makes Wang Yue admire.


    Unfortunately, he won''t.


    He won''t do such a thing.


    When Zhang Xiu put down his books, Wang Yue said: "Lord, the little emperor has not summoned him. In this way, when can we return to Chang''an? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what''s the hurry? When it''s time to come, it will come naturally. While we are in Xudu, you should try your best to develop the royal guards and straighten out the royal guards in Xudu. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue nodded.


    In fact, as soon as Wang Yue arrived at Xudu, he was dealing with the royal guards. During this period, they are busy developing the royal guards. On the one hand, it is to reward the contributions made by the royal guards; on the other hand, it is to continue to develop the royal guards.


    Xu Du was the political center under Cao Cao.


    This is the most critical area.


    Naturally, the wider the royal guards'' network, the better.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    With the sound of hasty footsteps, Deng Zhan hurried in and came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reporting: "Lord, Cao Cao sent someone to send a letter saying that today he is performing martial arts in the army. Please go and watch it."


    Do you practice martial arts in the army?


    Zhang Xiu mouth up, said: "Cao Cao invited me to, I''m afraid to give me a down horse."


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, let''s not go."


    "Go, why not!"


    But there was a sense of war in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and she said: "can Cao Cao''s army scare me? Before that, I had a confrontation with Cao Cao in Nanyang County. When the two armies were at war, I had a confrontation with Dian Wei, and I was not against Dian Wei at that time. "


    "Although Dianwei was suppressed by archery at that time, it was a contest of archery."


    "Now, my martial arts are greatly improved. I want to compete with Dian Wei again. In addition, there is a man named Xu Chu under Cao Cao''s command, who is also an expert. "


    "If we want to subdue Cao Cao''s soldiers in the army, we must try our best to subdue Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and make Cao Cao''s army completely speechless."


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the essence is shining.


    Wang Yue said: "the more powerful you are, the more easily you will be scared by Cao Cao."


    Zhang Xiu dusted off the snowflakes on her robes and said, "the two prime ministers have the most important power, and the two prime ministers have the least power. Now it''s worth a try. What''s more, what about Cao Cao''s fear? He''s not afraid of me for a day or two, and he doesn''t dare to do anything about me. "


    "Get the carriage ready, let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu directly ordered to go down.


    "Here it is


    Deng Zhan should arrange it next time.


    After a while, they got out of Laifu Inn, boarded the carriage and went to the direction of Cao Cao''s barracks.


    It''s snowy and cold.


    If you ride on horseback, it will be very uncomfortable in the wind and snow, and riding a carriage can resist the wind and snow. The carriage galloped all the way to the outside of the barracks.


    After getting out of the carriage, Zhang Xiu takes Wang Yue and Deng Zhan to the door.


    "General Zhang, please!"


    The soldiers stationed at the gate had long been ordered by Cao Cao. As soon as Zhang Xiu arrived, they led Zhang Xiu to the school yard in the barracks. It wasn''t long before they came near the school yard.


    Although not close, but far away, already can hear the cry of countless soldiers.


    "General Xiahou, come on!"


    "General Xiahou!"


    "General Xiahou!"


    One after another of the cry, constantly echoing in the snowy days.


    "General Li, come on!"


    "General Li!"


    "General Li!"


    Another soldier''s cry echoed in the air.


    Soldiers in the army, constantly shouting.


    The shouts of the soldiers on both sides soared into the sky, and the majestic momentum almost scattered the snow. The high pitched atmosphere, passionate momentum and fighting spirit make people excited and make countless people excited.


    The whole scene was very lively.


    When Zhang Xiu first came to the gate of the barracks, Cao Cao had already arrived at the gate to greet her. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he said with a smile: "you are my son-in-law. Today, the military is the most intense time. Come, come, follow me. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "thank you, father-in-law!"


    Cao Cao is called a virtuous son-in-law, which brings the relationship between the two sides closer.


    He and Cao Cao were lying to each other.


    In fact, both Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu want to destroy each other. But on the surface, they kept warm. Because today''s Zhang Xiu is not the time to deal with Cao Cao. And now Cao Cao, and lack of skills, can not attack Zhang Xiu.


    The two sides maintain apparent harmony.


    The party entered the school yard and came to the high platform near the contest.Here is the seat of Cao Cao.


    There are no soldiers around, and the line of sight is good, so you can clearly see the contest on the stage.


    Nearby, countless soldiers stood. The soldiers looked at the contest on the stage with excited faces. This is a way for soldiers in the army to vent their anger and give them a place to watch.


    Soldiers in the army, the day is very monotonous.


    In particular, Cao Cao was very strict with his soldiers. He did not allow them to gamble or drink in the army. Most of the time, soldiers have nothing to do but drill.


    This kind of situation is prone to accidents.


    So Cao Cao specially arranged this kind of fighting once a month.


    After taking his seat, Cao Cao pointed to the stage and said with a smile, "the people on the stage are Xia Houdun and Li Dian. Although there is a certain gap in their martial arts. But today, Li Dian played extremely well and did not fall behind. It can be seen that Li Dian worked hard during this period of time. "


    After hearing the introduction, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Xia Houdun.


    XiahouDun was very discriminative. He had an eye patch on his left eye, a beard on his chin, a swallow chin and a tiger beard, and a large figure. He stood on the stage, with a long wooden knife in his hand. The knife technique was steady and did not fall behind.


    On the other side, Li Dian uses a long wooden gun.


    The two fought like tigers.


    This kind of competition, not with real weapons, but with wooden weapons, even if the blade cut on people, it is just a pain after a while. Because the point of the wooden gun is obliterated. It''s blunt. Even if you poke it on people, it doesn''t make any difference.


    Such a contest is very safe.


    Zhang Xiu saw the battle between the generals, and then saw the excited reaction of the soldiers around. It seemed that she was fighting on the stage, and she felt awe inspiring.


    This is Cao Cao''s army.


    In this way, Cao Cao constantly cultivated the combative mind of the soldiers.


    It is to strengthen the fighting spirit of the soldiers.


    Let the soldiers fight for bravery, let the soldiers become howling tigers, rather than a group of bleating sheep.


    This is Cao Cao''s intention.


    When Zhang Xiu was thinking, Cao Cao''s words came to her ears. With a smile on his face, Cao Cao said again, "son-in-law, who can win the contest between Xia Houdun and Li Dian?"


    Zhang Xiu once again glanced at the two men fighting and said: "Li Dian is not an opponent at all. Don''t look at the match now. As a matter of fact, it was that XiahouDun was hiding himself and did not go all out. If XiahouDun did his best and did not make 30 moves, Lidian would be defeated. "


    Cao Cao said: "seriously?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "if the father-in-law doesn''t believe it, he just needs to give an order to make XiahouDun no longer hide himself. Well, we''ll see that in a moment. "


    When Cao Cao heard the words, he gave orders to the soldiers beside him.


    There are soldiers close to the arena, loudly conveyed the order of Cao Cao. When Xia Houdun heard Cao Cao''s order, his eyes swept and he fell to the position where Cao Cao was and saw Zhang Xiu on one side.

 Chapter 473

    At that moment, the light in his eyes was shining. Xia Houdun shook his wooden sword. Although it was made of wood, it was not ordinary wood. It was heavy and powerful.


    Xia Houdun said in a low voice, "Li Dian, I''m going to attack with all my strength. Take it!"


    The blade turned around and attacked Li Dian. At this time, XiahouDun no longer kept his hand. A knife was faster than a knife, and his strength became stronger and stronger, which made Lidian tired of dealing with it.


    Li Dian blushed and tried to resist.


    Ten moves, in the twinkling of an eye.


    After 20 moves, Li Dian was on the verge of failure.


    "Fall down!"


    XiahouDun murmured, and the blade cut off again. The long wooden knife was cut on the barrel of Li Dian''s gun. In a flash, the wooden knife cut down hit the barrel of the gun.


    "Chaka!"


    There was a dull sound, and the barrel of the gun broke.


    XiahouDun''s blade continued to fall and cut on Lidian''s shoulder. With a bang, Li Dian fell to the ground with a look of pain on his face. If it was a steel knife, it would fall down together, which would be enough to kill Li Dian.


    It''s a wooden knife.


    XiahouDun arched his hand and said, "General Li, I''ve accepted."


    Li Dian''s face was calm, and he didn''t feel lost because he was defeated. Because of his own martial arts, he was no match for Xia Houdun.


    "General Xiahou is powerful!"


    "Mighty


    "Mighty


    Countless soldiers, shouting.


    The voice of the big men in the army is more powerful than before.


    Many soldiers, for the summer Houdun drum strength. Soldiers in the army always advocate the strong. In awe of the strong and admiration of the brave, countless soldiers were very excited after the victory of XiahouDun.


    After enjoying the cheers of the soldiers, Xia Houdun raised his hand and motioned to all the soldiers to be quiet. Then his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu and said in a high voice, "Zhang Xiu, dare you fight?"


    Powerful voice, spread all over the battlefield.


    Countless soldiers in the army heard what XiahouDun said.


    For some soldiers in the army, they have only heard of Zhang Xiu''s reputation, but they have never seen or met her. But for some soldiers who took part in the battle of Nanyang, Zhang Xiu was just like the existence of the great demon king, very powerful.


    In the battle of Nanyang, Zhang Xiu defeated Dian Wei and captured Cao Chun, Yu Jin and Cao Anmin alive, which made Cao Cao speechless.


    Scenes of the past still reverberate in the minds of soldiers.


    Everyone was surprised.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu again.


    However, these soldiers were surprised, but at the same time, they were excited and looking forward to it. They did so because they were looking forward to the victory of Charlotte Houghton. As long as XiahouDun defeats Zhang Xiu, he will be shamed.


    A pair of eyes, fall on Zhang Xiu''s body.


    With a faint smile on his face, Cao Cao said, "my son-in-law, now I have nothing to do in Xudu. Fighting in the army is also a very lively thing. Why don''t you go and have a good time? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "does my father-in-law want me to win or lose?"


    Cao Cao looked calm and said, "win or lose. Today''s contest is just a pleasure. "


    He digged off the subject and didn''t answer.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "father-in-law, don''t regret letting me participate."


    "No regrets!"


    Cao Cao''s heart is full of confidence. The reason is very simple. In the last battle of Nanyang, Dianwei once had a hand with Zhang Xiu. At that time, Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu were in close combat, and Zhang Xiu was defeated.


    So Cao Cao was not worried. Even if XiahouDun was defeated, there were other people in the army who could suppress Zhang Xiu.


    This is enough to turn the tide and stabilize the situation.


    This is Cao Cao''s strength.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is like a mirror. She can guess what Cao Cao thinks.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not afraid of Dianwei.


    In the war of Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts at that time were really inferior to Dian Wei''s. But now Zhang Xiu''s strength has risen, and even Huang Zhong has been able to suppress her.


    His strength has increased a lot, and it''s not difficult to defeat Dianwei.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Xiu, dare to fight!"


    Xia Houdun stood on the stage with his head raised, his left hand holding a long wooden knife, and pointed to Zhang Xiu again, his eyes glaring and murderous.


    This scene is like the God of war.


    Such a scene made countless soldiers in the army excited.


    "Zhang Xiu, dare to fight?"


    In the crowd, there were soldiers shouting.


    "Zhang Xiu, dare to fight?"


    "Zhang Xiu, dare to fight?"


    More and more soldiers were shouting, and their voices echoed in the school yard. The roar seemed to form a surge of pressure. The psychological quality will be slightly affected.


    It''s called home court advantage!


    It''s good for you to be in your own place and surrounded by your own people.On the road, it''s easy to be suppressed.


    Zhang Xiu heard the shouts of the soldiers around her, and her face was still calm. But the fighting spirit in his eyes is incomparable, and the fighting will has been mobilized.


    If XiahouDun wants to fight, he will fight!


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid even if he is the enemy of his country.


    Zhang Xiu stood up. In an instant, Wang Yue stepped forward and took off the cloak for Zhang Xiu. He said in a low voice, "Lord, you must be careful."


    Zhang xiudao said: "just XiahouDun, nobody, what do you care?"


    Cao Cao''s face twitched when he heard it.


    XiahouDun or nobody?


    XiahouDun, that is his strong general.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu really did not put XiahouDun in his eyes, even if XiahouDun was a master. Zhang Xiu slowly forward, step by step to the stage. The momentum of his body is gradually increasing.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu entered the camp, dressed in a white robe, a cloak, bearing elegant. Even if he was born as a martial arts man, his own temperament was not inferior to that of any scholar.


    But now, Zhang Xiu has sharp eyes and eyebrows, and her whole body is full of fighting spirit.


    When Zhang Xiu came to the stage and stood still, he picked up the wooden gun that Li Dian had dropped on the ground. This wooden gun is made of solid wood and has a heavy weight.


    The length of the wooden gun is about 10 meters.


    Zhang Xiu holds a wooden gun and leans on the ground with the tip of the gun. In a flash, under the impact of fierce force, the originally blunt tip was even more fragmented. The tip is smoothed out, without any sharpness.


    What do you do, Houghton


    Zhang Xiu smile, light way: "afraid of wood gun tip too sharp, stab you."


    "Brush!"


    XiahouDun''s face was suddenly changed.


    He felt the irony and disdain of Zhang Xiu. The tip of the wooden gun was erased, which was a blunt tool. But he didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu should say that she was afraid of hurting him, which was contemptuous of him.


    Xia Houdun said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, you will regret what you said now. What you said just now, I will let you swallow it bit by bit. Because you, Zhang Xiu, will surely be defeated. "


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said again, "I''ve heard such a big story countless times. But in the end, those who talk big are all self defeating and seeking their own death. "


    Xia Houdun clenched the wooden knife and said, "it''s useless to say more. I''ll see the truth."


    "Good!"


    Holding a long gun, Zhang Xiu clenched the middle and front end of the wooden gun. It was not the traditional posture of holding the gun, but the posture of fighting bayonets on the battlefield of later generations. Such a move made XiahouDun laugh before he made a move.


    Xia Houdun took the wooden knife and said, "Zhang Xiu, are you here to be funny?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are dignified, but she doesn''t reply.


    "Kill


    When XiahouDun saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t speak, he swung his knife close to her. Just at the moment when XiahouDun just swung his knife, Zhang Xiu stepped forward and poked out his long gun like lightning.


    "Pa!"


    A dull noise came out.


    XiahouDun was stabbed under the rib, blunt impact, though not fatal, not even painful. But under the impact of the force, XiahouDun stepped back, three steps in succession, and then stabilized his figure.


    At this moment, he was very surprised.


    Zhang Xiu is very quick.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth. This way of fighting bayonets in the army is simple stabbing, and there is no superfluous means.


    Seize the opportunity and shoot like lightning.


    One move to win!


    It seems simple, but it is the magic weapon to win. It is a very sharp attack.

 Chapter 474

    "Wow!"


    Many soldiers in the army were in an uproar. When they looked at Zhang Xiu, they were all shocked. One how all didn''t expect, Zhang Xiu unexpectedly a move to control the summer Hou dun.


    If it were to be a real sword and a real gun, the move just now would be enough to penetrate the heart of Charlotte Houghton.


    That''s what many people think.


    This scene also fell in Cao Cao''s eyes. Cao Cao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Dian Wei, what do you think of the contest between Xia Houdun and Zhang Xiu?"


    Dian Wei''s martial arts are the best in the army, so Cao Cao inquires about it.


    Dian Wei said: "I can''t see anything from the contest just now. Because of the confrontation between the two, Zhang Xiu won with speed. He stabbed it as fast as lightning. But when he didn''t, he was still as a virgin. Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit, such a person is not simple


    Cao Cao nodded.


    It seems that we can''t distinguish the current situation.


    It''s still up for a fight.


    By this time, XiahouDun had been very impatient to swing the knife again. He quickly approached Zhang Xiu and swung his sword. The wooden sword was cut down, and it was in front of Zhang Xiu in an instant.


    This time, Houghton defended his chest against attack.


    "Bang!"


    The wooden knife and the wooden gun collided and made a sound.


    Zhang Xiu in the hand of a long gun block, stop cut off the wood knife, hand power, peiran power swing open wood knife. The wooden spear in his hand thrust forward again, with a crack. In an instant, the tip of the wooden spear thrust on the body of Charlotte Houghton again.


    XiahouDun stepped back with a look of horror on his face.


    It''s hit again!


    He clearly has done protection, or lost in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiuli was in the same place and did not pursue. After waiting for XiahouDun to stand, Zhang Xiu hooked XiahouDun''s hand and said with a smile, "come on, come on, I''ll give you three moves this time."


    Brush!


    XiahouDun''s face was even more red.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would humiliate him so much. XiahouDun clenched the wooden knife in his hand and rushed forward. In a flash, in front of Zhang Xiu, he slashed the sword.


    The wood knife cuts down, Zhang Xiu side body dodges.


    Under the attack of Xia Houdun, Zhang Xiu resisted one after another. In a short time, three moves have passed, and Zhang Xiu rushes forward with one step. The wooden gun in his hand poked out again.


    The gun was aimed at Charlotte Houghton''s shoulder.


    Xia Houdun blocks ahead of time, but when the long gun approaches, Zhang Xiu smiles. The long gun in his hand changed into a move, and the move changed. When the long gun was pressed down, it stabbed out fiercely.


    "Pa!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The wooden gun stabbed harshly at XiahouDun''s belly. In an instant, XiahouDun''s body was struck by lightning, and he fell back to the ground.


    At this moment, XiahouDun was pale.


    Under the impact of fierce force, XiahouDun only felt some pain in his intestines. The hand holding the wooden knife is weak, and it can''t lift any strength at all.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t pursue him. She said faintly, "do you want to fight again, XiahouDun?"


    At the moment, there was no sound around.


    All the soldiers around the school yard were solemn and frowned.


    Lost!


    XiahouDun is defeated!


    You should know that XiahouDun was a very strong master in the army, sweeping many generals in the army. Can be in front of Zhang Xiu, from beginning to end, are pressed to hit, even there is no room to fight back.


    It''s still fighting with wooden weapons.


    For a real weapon, harhoughton would have been killed.


    This is the most shocking.


    Cao Cao saw all this and said in a deep voice: "Dian Wei, Xia Houdun''s martial arts can compete with you. But he was so vulnerable in front of Zhang Xiu. Everyone in the army, besides you, is there anyone who can compete with Zhang Xiu? "


    "Xu Chu was able to fight, the rest were vulnerable!"


    Dian Wei''s eyes are full of war.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he had already seen that her martial arts were advanced. This kind of Zhang embroidery makes Dian Wei happy.


    Cao Cao''s heart sank.


    Cao Cao''s face was full of regret. The reason why he called Zhang Xiu is to show the prosperity of military capacity and to frighten Zhang Xiu. But I didn''t expect that as soon as Zhang Xiu came up, Xia Houdun was caught off guard, and Xia Houdun couldn''t resist.


    Xia Houdun clenched his teeth, got up again with his sword, and said, "fight again!"


    "Kill


    Xia Houdun rushed to Zhang Xiu again.


    Just as he approached Zhang Xiu, the long gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand quickly poked out, and one shot poked on Xia Houdun''s chest.


    XiahouDun groaned and staggered back.


    When XiahouDun retreated, Zhang Xiu had approached again before he had stabilized himself. Zhang Xiu''s hand reached out and immediately put it on Xia Houdun''s arm.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu, abandoning the long gun in her hand and grabbing XiahouDun''s arm, turned around, turned her back to XiahouDun, and tugged forward. Xia Houdun, caught off guard, leaned his chest against Zhang Xiu''s back.Closely followed, Zhang Xiu back force.


    A simple and rough fall on his back made him fly out and be thrown out directly.


    "Pa!"


    XiahouDun''s body fell to the ground, and this time he fell to the ground, his whole body was more like falling apart, and his whole body was in pain.


    Even harhoughton could not raise the slightest strength.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t look at XiahouDun on the ground, and her eyes swept the countless Cao soldiers around. At the moment, the cold wind blows, the snow falls, but Zhang Xiu is high spirited, Lang Sheng said: "Zhang Xiu here, who dares to fight?"


    "Zhang Xiu is here, who dares to fight!"


    The powerful cry echoed in the school yard, and countless people heard it.


    All the soldiers, you heard me.


    But the look on the soldiers'' faces sank down, and everyone was shocked by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    All the generals in Cao''s army were very pale.


    Zhang Xiu is too arrogant.


    "Zhang Xiu, I''ll meet you."


    In the army, a tiger general strode out. He was a big man with a solemn face and a national character face.


    His name is Xu Huang.


    He is a general under Cao Cao.


    In his early years, Xu Huang followed Yang Feng, and later convinced him to escort Emperor Han Xian to Luoyang. Finally, he turned to Cao Cao and became a general under Cao Cao.


    Xu Xuanhua is very good at using axe.


    Although Xu Huang knew that his martial arts could not compare with Zhang Xiu, after all, he could not compete with Xia Houdun. But Zhang Xiu is so arrogant that Xu Huang, as a fierce general under Cao Cao''s account, can''t just sit back and ignore him.


    It''s not a lack of strength.


    It''s about courage.


    Xu Huang strode out and came to the stage. He took out a wooden Xuanhua axe from the weapon rack. His eyes were sharp and he said: "Zhang Xiu, Xu Huang is here. I''m asking for advice!"


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Xu Huang, you are a famous general. You are suitable for fighting on the battlefield. However, if you compete with me alone, you will attack each other with your own short points, and you will find your own way out. You, step back


    Zhang Xiuzhen didn''t pay attention to Xu Huang,


    Xu Huang laughed and said: "with the praise of General Zhang, Xu Huang is proud. But it''s not about the level of martial arts. This is just a battle for general Zhang. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "since you have decided, please."


    "Please


    Xu Huang''s face was very solemn, and he grasped the wooden axe in his hand.

 Chapter 475

    Zhang Xiu''s long gun shakes, and the posture of holding the gun changes. It is no longer the previous posture of holding the bayonet, but the authentic posture of shooting. A shot in hand, Zhang Xiu a step out, gun shaking, straight forward Xu Huang.


    Xu Huang lifted the axe and cut it out quickly.


    "Pa!"


    The two weapons collide, but the axe blade hooks the gun barrel and presses down, intending not to let Zhang Xiu withdraw.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand was full of force. As soon as the barrel of the gun was pulled and pushed, the tip of the gun first shrank back and then popped out in a twinkling of an eye. Caught off guard, Xu Huang was stabbed in the chest by the barrel of the gun.


    Fortunately, the strength is not very strong. Xu Huang just stepped back and stabilized himself.


    "You are too weak!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head. In front of her, Xu Huang is really weak. Although Xu Huang has a set of means in using his troops. But now, it''s not a contest of art of war, it''s just a contest of martial arts.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t keep her hand. She revolved around with a big gun and attacked quickly.


    His moves are open and close, and his attack is fierce. Just listen to the sound of slapping. After more than ten moves, Xu Huang waves an axe and shows his chest. Zhang Xiu sticks out a gun, the point of the gun goes forward, and pokes it on Xu Huang''s chest.


    The powerful power erupted in an instant.


    Xu Huang snorted and couldn''t help retreating, but he immediately took a step back and tried to resist the shot. Unfortunately, under the impact of fierce force, Xu Huang could not stabilize his body and stepped back.


    Zhang Xiu steps to keep up, he close to Xu Huang body step forward, both hands on the ground with a gun, the whole person jumped up, with the help of the power of the wooden gun in the air, kicking out.


    "Bang! Bang


    The sound of crashing is heard all the time.


    Zhang Xiu''s soles are constantly pushing on Xu Huang''s chest.


    Under the impact of the great power, Xu Huang screamed out. In the end, his body was unstable, and he flew upside down. His body swept across the high platform, and fell to the ground with a bang.


    Xu Huang fell to the ground, not only chest rib pain, viscera are as if by shock in general.


    Pain!


    I feel as if I''m falling apart.


    Xu Huang looked up at the stage, his eyes were extremely shocked.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    He and Zhang Xiu fight, but is a moment effort, defeated in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu''s body falls to the ground, takes the long stick in her hand and looks around at all the Cao soldiers.


    At this moment, countless Cao soldiers were silent, and everyone was silent.


    They were all awed by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "it''s too weak. In such a big Cao camp, none of them can fight?"


    "Who else?"


    "Who dares to fight?"


    Zhang Xiu almost tried to roar, clearly spread throughout the school.


    His words are even more provocative.


    Cao Cao''s eyes were sharp and his face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu is too rampant.


    So arrogant.


    "Zhang Xiu, Xiao''er, Xu Chu will fight with you."


    Chu Hu came out of the crowd. He is a captain in the army, and his main duty is to protect Cao Cao''s safety. However, in this life, because of Zhang Xiu, Dian Wei did not die, so Xu Chu always served as a school captain. He did not protect Cao Cao''s safety like Dian Wei.


    Xu Chu walked out with a long knife in his hand.


    The knife in his hand is unparalleled.


    As Xu Chu spoke, he came to the stage and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, child, it''s too boring to compete with wooden weapons. Do you dare to compete with me? "


    "Why not?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were calm. She turned and fell on Cao Cao, saying: "Cao Sikong, Xu Chu asked to fight with real swords and guns. I''d like to say first that there is no eye for swords and guns. In case of hurting Xu Chu, don''t blame my men for being merciless. It''s blind and hard to control. It''s normal to get hurt. "


    Cao Cao said: "let go of the war!"


    At this point, Cao Cao did not stop him. He only hoped that Xu Chu would defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao knows Xu Chu''s martial arts. Even Xia Houdun, Xu Huang and others could not compare with Xu Chu. In the army, Xu Chu was a tiger general next only to Dian Wei, and also the most valued General of Cao Cao.


    Hearing Cao Cao''s words, Xu Chu grinned, showed his white teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu, the Lord has agreed. Now, choose your weapons. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this general has his own weapons!"


    He looked at Wang Yue who followed him and said, "Wang Yue, take my overlord gun."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to fly away.


    Xu Chu snorted and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, send someone back to get the weapon. Once you come back, I''m afraid it will take less than half an hour. In my opinion, you can choose any weapon you like. There are enough weapons for you to choose from


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "my weapon is just outside the camp. Just wait a moment."


    His overlord gun was under the carriage.Xu Chu said no more.


    Zhang Xiu waits quietly. After a while, Wang Yue returns with his Bawang gun. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is as thick as a goose''s egg. It''s more than a foot long and has no equal edge.


    When Zhang Xiu takes the overlord gun from Wang Yue''s hand, the big gun with thick goose eggs turns in the air, and the barrel of the gun slams, leaning on the challenge arena. With a click, the wooden platform is poked a hole.


    Xu Chu''s eyes contracted.


    He often competes with Dianwei on the stage. He knows that the wood on the stage is hard and hard, but he is stabbed by Zhang Xiu. It shows that Zhang Xiu is powerful.


    "Come on, let me see what you can do."


    Zhang Xiu holds the overlord gun and has sharp eyes. He knew that Xu Chu was a great master. In the face of such a person, Zhang Xiu will not have the slightest carelessness and belittle the enemy, the lion fight the rabbit, still need to go all out. When we fight with Xu Chu, we should not be careless.


    "Please


    Xu Chu''s foot kicked the knife pole. In a flash, he held the knife in both hands, and the blade was across his chest.


    Although the wind is cold, but the bright blade, but through the heart of the cold. The next moment, Xu Chu had swung his sword and rushed forward. When Zhang Xiu was less than two feet away, Xu Chu''s long knife turned in front of him.


    This round of rotation is to build up momentum. When the blade finally stands in the air, it has gathered enough strength.


    "Kill


    Xu Chu swung a knife and cut it off.


    A knife fell, the momentum was terrible.


    Xu Chu gathered his strength in this way. His blade was sharp and powerful. Originally, the power of Xu Chu was extremely powerful. In this way, it was even more like the pouring of the Tianhe river.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t hide. The overlord''s gun revolves in his hand. As he wrists his waist, endless power rushes into the overlord''s gun. The overlord''s gun directly welcomes him with great power.


    Xu Chu was a strong general with natural power.


    Xu Chu is good at fighting hard!


    Zhang Xiu would not hide, but should defeat Xu Chu in what he was good at.


    Knife light, gun shadow, emerge one after another.


    "Dang!"


    The next moment, two weapons collide.


    The sound of violent impact came from the place of impact. The force of the impact was so strong that the sound of the impact was so harsh. The soldiers nearest to the challenge arena could not help covering their ears and frowning.


    This scene is very shocking.


    The two people in the contest are really too fierce.


    Xu Chu''s hands holding the knife were impacted by endless force. His hands were numb, his arms were shaking, and the flesh on his cheek was shaking.


    Strong!


    It''s so strong!


    Xu Chu''s body stands on the ground, like a hill. He is powerful and natural.


    Zhang Xiu is different.


    Zhang Xiu is neither fat nor thin. She has a symmetrical figure. She can''t see how powerful she is. She is stronger than him. Xu Chu held the knife to stabilize his figure, but under the impact of strength, he finally stepped back.


    On the contrary, Zhang Xiu never retreats.


    Although Zhang Xiu''s palm was slightly numb, he pressed it down as soon as his hand was tight. The overlord''s gun swung again and chopped down when Xu Chu retreated.

 Chapter 476

    Zhang Xiu''s shooting skill, learned from Tong Yuan, is flexible and changeable. She can be called the first shot in the world. But now, Zhang Xiu rarely uses a hundred birds to shoot the Phoenix, because his strength has reached the point of one force down to ten meetings, and he doesn''t need fancy shooting.


    All you need to do is win with strength.


    The rest, don''t care.


    So when Zhang Xiu and Xu Chu fought each other, they gave up their own exquisite moves, and the moves opened and closed.


    With a single shot, Xu Chu could not avoid it.


    Xu Chu just took a step back, and before he had completely stabilized his figure, Zhang Xiu''s shot had already fallen. He stood still at his feet, lifted the long sword in the air, held the handle in both hands, and welcomed it.


    Xu Chu did not retreat!


    He chose hard to hard.


    He Xu Chu was in all directions, and he was not afraid of anyone.


    If his strength is weaker than his, Xu Chu can kill him with a knife. The strength is stronger than him, but Xu Chu dares to fight hard, so even if the strength is stronger than him, Xu Chu is not afraid.


    He dares to work hard!


    He is not afraid of death!


    The battle on the battlefield is not only a contest of martial arts, but also a contest of courage.


    If we meet in a narrow road, the brave will win!


    Only dare to fight, not afraid of death, is the real master.


    Xu Chu''s blade rose, and in a twinkling of an eye, he collided with the overlord gun again. At the moment of the weapon impact, peiran''s strength came back. For a moment, Xu Chu could hardly hold the knife.


    Even his tiger''s mouth was torn. Moist feeling, appear in the palm. Xu Chu knew that his tiger''s mouth was torn and his palm was stained with blood. Even under the attack of this shot, Xu Chu stepped back again, unable to stabilize his figure.


    At this moment, Xu Chu looked shocked.


    Zhang Xiu is so strong!


    Zhang Xiu''s fighting consciousness, which is also very sophisticated, does not give him a chance to ease.


    After Zhang Xiu suppressed Xu Chu with the second shot, she didn''t keep any hands and swung the gun down again. He was always good at chasing and fighting. He never threw away his advantage after taking the initiative. When Xu Chu retreated, he shot again.


    One shot after another, each shot fell, Xu Chu''s arm would tremble. With each shot, Xu Chu would step back two steps. The pain in Xu Chu''s hand was increasing with each shot.


    A drop of blood, let Chu palm overflow.


    His mouth, completely torn.


    However, Xu Chu''s toughness is very strong, from the beginning to the end, did not utter a scream. From the beginning to the end, there was no fear of war. He is like the ice that never melts for ten thousand years, and endures Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    "Kick! Kick off


    Xu Chu kept retreating, his face numb.


    Zhang Xiu''s offensive is still constant.


    He still pressed Xu Chu to fight.


    This scene fell into the eyes of countless Cao soldiers. One by one, the soldiers of the Cao army were shocked. Fighting in the army is often carried out, and everyone knows that Xu Chu is good at martial arts.


    At present, Xu Chu doesn''t even have the ability to fight back. He is retreating every step.


    Zhang Xiu''s attack shows unparalleled violence.


    This is the aesthetics of violence.


    Under the violent attack, people are dazzled and yearning. However, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Cao Cao and his subordinates were all worried about Xu Chu.


    Cao Cao''s hand on his knee has been clenched into a fist. His face was even more dignified, and his breath became short. He was worried about Xu Chu and cheered him even more.


    Good for Xu Chu.


    Xu Chu''s tenacity is admirable.


    "Xu Chu!"


    The soldiers around the challenge arena suddenly heard Xu Chu''s name.


    "Xu Chu!"


    Then there were more people shouting.


    "Xu Chu!"


    "Xu Chu!"


    "Xu Chu!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cry gradually gathered in the whole school field. Countless soldiers, shouting. Although they were worried about Xu Chu, they were all moved by his tenacity and fighting spirit.


    They are Cao Cao''s soldiers, cheer for Xu Chu, hope Xu Chu can win.


    Wave after wave of shouting, as if the wave sounded, a wave higher than a wave. This kind of momentum reverberates in the whole school field, and the voice is uniform. For Xu Chu, it was like a heart tonic.


    He was still retreating, but the expression on Xu Chu''s face was more ferocious.


    "I can''t lose!"


    "Can''t lose!"


    "Roar!"


    Xu Chu roared. Regardless of the injury on his hand, he grasped the sword in his hand. When Zhang Xiu''s long gun fell, he swung his sword to meet it. When the two weapons collided, Xu Chu made another effort. Under the impact of the powerful force, although he still retreated two steps, Zhang Xiu also retreated two steps this time.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the shouts all around her, and her smile became more and more intense. She said, "Xu Chu, now countless soldiers are shouting for you, and tens of thousands of people are cheering for you. You are carrying tens of thousands of expectations of Cao Jun! ""So, I can''t lose!"


    Xu Chu swung the edge of his sword and rowed his robe in front of him. Just listen to Yila, cut a piece of cloth down. Xu Chu directly tore the cloth into two pieces, quickly wound his palm, and wound the wound of tiger''s mouth.


    Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry to pursue him, but let Xu Chu wind his palm.


    Holding the overlord''s gun, Zhang Xiu said: "you have the expectations of countless soldiers, very good, very good. I like people like you who have expectations and missions. "


    "All the soldiers of Cao''s army place their hope of victory on you."


    "Imagine how happy I was when I beat you. Let all Cao soldiers disappointed, let all Cao soldiers despair, how happy


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu talked about the excitement, she burst out laughing.


    In the face of such a scene, Zhang Xiu has no fear or timidity. On the contrary, he has a lot of fighting spirit in his heart, and even more passionate fighting spirit.


    He wants to defeat Xu Chu.


    He wanted to make Cao Jun despair.


    In his first life, he had no ability to resist Cao''s soldiers. Facing Cao Cao''s army, he was desperate and finally chose to surrender. Today, he is not afraid of Cao Cao and his army.


    He wanted to make Cao''s soldiers despair.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to completely defeat the spirit of Cao''s soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu shakes the long gun in her hand, points to Xu Chu who has already grasped the long knife, and roars: "Xu Chu, come to fight!"


    "Kill


    Xu Chu didn''t say a word.


    Zhang Xiu took the gun and rushed out. When the overlord gun in his hand came out, the barrel of the gun trembled and the tip of the gun stabbed out quickly. The sharp tip of the gun, just like the flashing cold star, makes people shudder.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    The sound of crashing is constantly ringing.


    The overlord''s gun hit the blade. It was extremely sharp and powerful. Even though Xu Chu''s knife was extremely sharp, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun made the blade unable to move forward.


    Under a series of fierce attacks, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung up again, and the gun barrel fell down, just like a hanging Tianhe.


    Hoo!!


    When the overlord gun fell, there was a sound of breaking air.


    The momentum was terrible, and it reached the top of Xu Chu''s head in a twinkling of an eye. Xu Chu didn''t choose to retreat. He clenched his steel teeth and held up his knife. At this time, the expression on Xu Chu''s face was red because of the operation of power, and even more excited because countless people cheered for him.


    He wants to beat Zhang Xiu.


    He wants to win!


    "Dang!"


    When the weapons collided, the two sides were even.


    This is Xu Chu''s all-out battle. He has already given up his life. In Xu Chu''s heart, he regarded the victory and defeat of this contest as more important than his life.

 Chapter 477

    Xu Chu has done his best to fight.


    Zhang Xiu and Xu Chu fight, but it is high morale, extremely excited.


    All he felt was blood.


    He just felt that there had never been a moment of such excitement.


    "If you are a man, be violent!"


    Zhang Xiu waved the overlord''s gun in her hand and drank in her mouth. As he sipped, his strength increased again. After returning to this era, Zhang Xiu''s strength has been constantly enhanced.


    The overlord''s gun swung up and smashed down again.


    "A man''s business is in the fighting field. He is as bold as a bear, and his eyes are like a wolf."


    Zhang Xiu sings high in her mouth, but her hand moves ceaselessly. Even with his singing, the speed of shooting is faster and faster, and the offensive is more and more fierce.


    "Men never sympathize with each other, even if they die, they will smile at each other."


    "There are 100 enemy battlefields, and they are willing to be green with weeds everywhere."


    "Don''t shudder, there are songs for you to listen to."


    Zhang Xiu overlord gun continuous attack, strength also increased. Originally, Xu Chu could compete with Zhang Xiu, but in the attack of Zhang Xiu, Xu Chu was suppressed again.


    Zhang Xiu constantly attack, Xu Chu can only constantly resist. Even hearing Zhang Xiu''s singing formula, Xu Chu''s heart was also affected.


    "Killing one is a crime, killing ten thousand is a hero."


    "If you kill nine million, you will be the hero in the hero."


    Zhang Xiu''s singing formula is more and more powerful, and his fighting spirit and strength reach the peak in this instant. All the strength and spirit are infused in one shot.


    "Hoo!"


    The overlord''s gun fell as fast as lightning.


    "Dang!"


    The harsh sound of impact, immediately sounded. As the sound came out, Xu Chu snorted, and the long knife flew out of his hand. Xu Chu himself collapsed to the ground.


    The blow just now was powerful and powerful. It was like a sea of power. Xu Chu could not resist it.


    The tip of Zhang Xiu''s gun fell in front of Xu Chu the next moment.


    As long as Zhang Xiu moves forward, it is enough to penetrate Xu Chu''s body.


    "Tick! Tick and tick


    A drop of blood, from the palm of Chu''s hand, spilled on the stage.


    Xu Chu''s mouth is full of blood.


    His arm now, has not been able to lift any strength, and even the bones of his arms have been injured. Wave after wave of pain, so that Xu Chu''s cheek taut.


    But, this is not to make Xu Chu sad.


    The biggest injury is not trauma.


    The biggest injury is heartbreak.


    He lost!


    Lost to Zhang Xiu, failed to live up to the expectations of countless soldiers.


    At this moment, the whole school was silent, and there was no more soldiers shouting. All the soldiers have been awed by Zhang Xiu''s figure.


    Zhang Xiu, one person, can beat ten thousand people.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Gudong!


    Cao Cao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and was shocked. He looked at Dian Wei and said in a deep voice, "Dian Wei, in the past, when Xu Chu competed with you, he couldn''t tell the outcome without hundreds of moves. Xu Chu was completely defeated in front of Zhang Xiu. Now, are you sure to defeat Zhang Xiu? "


    "I''m not sure!"


    Dian Wei''s eyes were full of war, and said: "today''s Zhang Xiu is much stronger than that of Nanyang. Once Zhang Xiu, humble duty can press him to hit, let Zhang Xiu can''t show the skill of shooting. But now, Zhang Xiu''s strength is stronger than Xu Chu''s, at least not to the end. At the end of the war, Zhang Xiu and general, the outcome is difficult to determine


    Hiss!


    When Cao Cao heard this, he took a cool breath.


    Dian Wei''s rough cheek, full of high morale, said: "Lord, please fight. Zhang Xiu is strong and will ask to step on the stage to compete with Zhang Xiu. "


    "No need!"


    Cao Cao shook his head.


    Dianwei said, "why?"


    Cao Cao said: "today''s Zhang Xiu has defeated Xu Chu and pressed the army. Whether it is fighting spirit or martial arts, she is at the strongest time. Even if you go, you may not be able to suppress Zhang Xiu. If you win, you can say it. But if you lose, the morale of our army will be completely suppressed by Zhang Xiu. Keep you, at least the soldiers have a breath of heart


    Dian Wei''s heart is not willing.


    He wants to fight.


    Zhang Xiu was on the stage. He defeated Xu Chu and stood up with his gun. His eyes turned and fell on Dian Wei beside Cao Cao.


    In the first generation, Zhang Xiu once had a hand with Dian Wei, but not against him. In the end, Zhang Xiu sent someone to steal Dian Wei''s weapon and killed him with the sea of people tactics.


    During the war of Nanyang, Zhang Xiu had a close battle with Dian Wei. Zhang Xiu was slightly inferior to Dian Wei and could only suppress Dian Wei with the method of arrow.


    Today, Zhang Xiu is not afraid of Dianwei.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun pointed at Dian Wei and said in a loud voice: "Dian Wei, Zhang Xiu is here. How dare you fight?"


    Deep voice, resounding through the barracks.Countless soldiers'' eyes fell on Dianwei, waiting for Dianwei''s reply.


    When Cao Cao heard this, he sighed in his heart. He didn''t want to let Dian Wei fight, but Zhang Xiu''s challenge of naming and surname, at this time, has been unable to retreat.


    It''s only one fight!


    Cao Cao said: "Dian Wei, go!"


    Dianwei answered and strode out. His burly body, moving in the cold wind, like a tower moving forward. He didn''t say a word and soon came to the stage.


    After Xu Chu stepped down, Dian Wei took out the two iron halberds on his back and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are wasting a lot of energy fighting with Xia Houdun and Xu Chu. I won''t take advantage of you. I''ll give you a quarter of an hour to rest. In a quarter of an hour, you and I will compete. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang xiulang replied.


    Facing Dianwei, Zhang Xiu''s heart is more and more excited.


    He was at the peak of his energy and spirit, and said in a voice: "Dianwei, in the battle of Nanyang County in the past, you defeated me in the archery contest. Today, you will also lose to me in the contest of martial arts. You are the most powerful man under Cao Sikong''s command. If you think about it, it will make people excited. "


    Dianwei said: "it''s not known who will win."


    "Cut the crap and fight!"


    Dian Wei clenched the iron halberd in his left and right hands, which was full of war. Despite his status as Cao Cao''s bodyguard, as a simple warrior, Dian Wei was happy to see him and wanted to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Fight!


    Fight!


    Fight!


    Pawey''s legs were wide apart, his eyes were sharp, and he had already put on a posture.


    He wants to fight Zhang Xiu.


    "Your request, please."


    Xu Dianwei and Zhang Dianwei know that they are stronger. In particular, Dian Wei''s two iron halberds are the best choice for both attack power and flexibility.


    As soon as the overlord gun shakes in the air, the gun tip with cold light is like a rainbow flying away. In a twinkling of an eye, it comes to Dianwei.


    Dian Wei iron halberd cross, forward frame out.


    "Ding!"


    The point of the gun hit the iron halberd, and the two fought in the first round.


    Dian Wei blocked Zhang Xiu''s first wave of attack, stomped at his feet and became furious in an instant. The iron halberd in his hand cut off, and the sharp halberd blade cut the air, and even made the air burst.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t hide, he doesn''t want to fight in a flexible way, he chooses the most direct and violent means to fight back.


    The overlord swung his gun and met him.


    "Dang!"


    The two men''s weapons collided.


    In a flash, the sparks were all over the place.


    Neither Dian Wei nor Zhang Xiu had any influence, let alone retreated. Zhang Xiu doesn''t look at the situation of overlord''s gun. She raises the gun again.


    In Nanyang County, when Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei fought each other, the former weapon, the golden spear with tiger head, could not bear the iron halberd, leaving a mark on the golden spear with tiger head.


    Today''s overlord gun is a real weapon. In the battle of weapons, the overlord gun is not affected at all.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun to attack, the attack is like a storm, the momentum is crazy.


    Dian Wei is no less than giving way.


    The two iron halberds were flying up and down, without any retrogression, only a forward attack.


    Both of them are violent attacks.

 Chapter 478

    "Dang! Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of impact, one after another.


    The fight between the two men was just like beating iron. The attack was like beating banana with rain. It was very urgent. They did not give in and did not retreat. They fought each other.


    Both Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei were the most direct and violent attacks.


    When Zhang Xiu and Xu Chu fought, Zhang Xiu''s strength pressed Xu Chu to fight. Although Xu Chu has both defense and attack, Xu Chu is not strong enough in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Today, the strength of the two is not much different. So the two men''s contest, a short time did not separate the victory and defeat, kill hard to separate.


    Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu after the fight gradually found that strength, he was slightly inferior to Zhang Xiu. You should know that a person''s peak of strength is almost natural. It''s almost difficult for him to exercise his strength and make his own strength leap.


    In a short period of time, Zhang Xiu''s strength has increased greatly.


    It''s incredible.


    However, Dian Wei was not afraid. He waved his iron halberd with both hands and attacked fiercely. Under the continuous impact, both of them were sweating, big beads of sweat oozing from their foreheads.


    The fighting became more and more fierce.


    At this time, the battle is not only about martial arts, but also about courage. Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei fight, although Zhang Xiu''s strength takes the lead, but it only has some advantages, not enough to form a thorough crush.


    Suddenly, when Zhang Xiu shot out, a flaw appeared on her left shoulder.


    Dian Wei''s eyes brightened. Without any hesitation, the iron halberd rotated and chopped down.


    The iron halberd took Zhang Xiu''s shoulder.


    When Dian Wei takes Zhang Xiu''s shoulder, Zhang Xiu smiles at the corner of her mouth. The overlord''s gun lifts and stabs the crescent of the iron halberd. The power of the front stab makes Dian Wei unable to hold the iron halberd.


    Dian Wei loosened his hand and released the iron halberd of his right hand. Without a handle of iron halberd, Dian Wei did not stop. His left iron halberd passed in the air, straight to Zhang Xiu''s right shoulder.


    He moves as fast as lightning.


    Zhang Xiu is calm to block the gun. When Zhang Xiu waves the gun to block the falling iron halberd, Dian Wei looks excited and says: "Zhang Xiu, you''ve been hit!"


    With that, Dian Wei bullied himself and entered. He swung his right fist and hit it like lightning.


    "Pa!"


    The fist beat on Zhang Xiu''s right arm, violent force impact, Zhang Xiu''s right hand temporarily lost power, unable to hold the overlord gun, making the overlord gun fell to the ground.


    This instant, Zhang Xiu''s left hand, also lightning out, happened to hit Dian Wei''s left wrist. For a moment, the iron halberd of Dianwei''s left hand fell down.


    Both men, both of them lost their weapons.


    Two people face to face, the difference is no more than a foot.


    At such a close distance, no one dare bow to pick up weapons on the ground. Because once you bend down, you will be exposed and attacked fiercely by the other side.


    Master fight, in an instant.


    At this time, both of them did not dare to relax, they were staring at each other.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were on guard, with a smile in her mouth, and said, "Dianwei, you think you''ve killed my overlord gun. You''re very proud. But I don''t know that it was in my expectation that I deliberately guided you to kill your iron halberd and then my overlord gun. You and I don''t have weapons, and we don''t have time to grab weapons. At this time, you will surely lose. "


    Dian Wei bowed slightly, his eyes had a strong light, he was alert in his heart and said: "Zhang Xiu, everyone can talk big. If you want to talk big, you''ll talk after the war. "


    "Kill


    Dian Wei swung his left hand and hit it directly.


    When Dian Wei''s left fist was wielded, Zhang Xiu turned sideways and hit his right hand like lightning.


    "Bang!"


    The clenched fist hit the wrist of pawe''s left hand.


    Under the impact of the dull force, Dianwei''s wrist hurt, and he immediately drew back. Dianwei shook his left hand and hit his right hand again. But when he hit Zhang Xiu''s head with his fist, Zhang Xiu''s head deviated and he dodged Dian Wei''s fist.


    Zhang Xiu steps a mat, flank is a right hook swing.


    Whoo!


    Fist out, like lightning.


    The fist from the bottom to the top, haunting, immediately hit on Dianwei''s jaw. Under the fierce force impact, Zhang Xiu''s chin and upper jaw impact together, the teeth dull impact.


    Up and down the teeth impact, the entire gums, are extremely crisp.


    A trace of blood oozes from the gums.


    Dian Wei''s mouth was numb, but he didn''t stop. He swung his fist again and took Zhang Xiu''s neck. Zhang Xiu does not use weapons, but is more flexible. She has already withdrawn.


    In the Dian Wei fist with old, Zhang Xiu''s fist again, hard hit on Dian Wei''s temple.


    "Pa!"


    When his fist hit, pawey''s head became dizzy.


    At this moment, Dianwei was confused.


    What''s going on?


    Zhang Xiu''s boxing is so powerful.In other words, in Dianwei''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is as moving as a rabbit and as fast as lightning. He can''t catch Zhang Xiu at all. But his strength is strong, but his flexibility is not enough.


    At the moment, there was a complete silence around him. In the eyes of all the soldiers, Dian Wei, who had lost his weapon, suddenly became clumsy and was suppressed by Zhang Xiu everywhere.


    Zhang Xiu hits Dianwei''s temple with a fist. Before Dianwei reacts, she swings her fist again.


    Fist quickly, straight to the temple on the other side of Dianwei.


    Although Dian Wei was confused, he quickly responded, raised his hand to protect his head and resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. But Zhang Xiu''s fist swayed in the air, and the next moment, it fell on Dianwei''s chest.


    "Pa!"


    The impact of the dull force almost made him breathless. Dianwei''s breath was short, his heart was sick, and his strength was weak.


    Zhang Xiu attacks ceaselessly, fist comes out again.


    "Bang! Bang


    One after another, the pounding sound rang out, and the fists came to the flesh.


    Dian Wei is already in the downwind, constantly being trampled by Zhang Xiu, completely unable to fight back. Even if Dian Wei''s skin is rough and thick, but under Zhang Xiu''s attack, he can''t resist and is dazzled.


    No way!


    No way!


    In dianway''s head, he was very sober.


    If he continued to do so, he would be defeated. So he turned his mind and suddenly thought of a way. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, he no longer resisted. His hands were lined up and he went directly to Zhang Xiu''s waist.


    His intention is to hold up Zhang Xiu, and then slam so as to turn the situation around.


    "Pa! Bang


    Zhang Xiu''s fist fell on Dian Wei''s eyes again. Under the dull power, even if Dian Wei evaded, his eyes were black and blue, and Zhang Xiu turned them into panda eyes.


    His fist fell on the temple, and Dianwei''s head was a little dizzy.


    However, Dian Wei embraces Zhang Xiu.


    Here''s the chance!


    Dian Wei''s heart a joy, ready to force.


    But at the moment when Dian Wei was ready to work, Zhang Xiu''s right hand became an elbow, swung it up and hit Dian Wei''s shoulder. Under the impact of powerful force, pawey bent slightly, and his face was full of endless pain.


    Elbow impact is different from fist impact.


    The elbow is a bone, and the impact force is almost as powerful as a blunt impact.


    When Dian Wei just bent over, Zhang Xiu raised her knee abruptly.


    Hit it up.


    "Bang!".


    Hard knee, hard hit on dianway''s chest. The next moment, Dian Wei couldn''t help but scream. He just tied Zhang Xiu''s hand around his waist and released it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu hit well and raised her knee again.


    "Bang!"


    Zhang Xiu''s knee hit Dianwei''s chest again.


    "Poof!"


    Dianwei couldn''t bear it any longer. His body staggered back and his mouth was already bleeding. A cheek of incomparable pain, the face is full of ferocious look.


    Zhang Xiu in Dianwei retreat, a sprint out. The body jumps, the person is in the air, the foot already ruthlessly kicks out.


    "Pa!"


    Put one foot on pawe''s chest.


    Under the impact of ferocious force, Dianwei could not keep his body steady. He staggered back two steps, and then he flew back and fell to the ground.


    Dian Wei, who fell to the ground, still wanted to struggle to get up. But he fell on the ground, not only his temple pain, jaw, cheek, chest pain everywhere, are Zhang Xiu previously played.


    He wanted to get up, but he couldn''t.


    Lost!


    Dian Wei''s heart, a sigh.

 Chapter 479

    At this moment, there was silence.


    All the soldiers were silent. Dian Wei''s martial arts is the best among Cao Cao''s men. But now, Dian Wei is defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    This situation is depressing.


    The hearts of countless Cao soldiers seemed to hold their breath. All of them looked at Zhang Xiu with a look of awe in their eyes.


    Zhang Xiu is invincible.


    This is invincible.


    Even if it was Cao Cao himself, when he looked at Zhang Xiu, there was a sense of killing in his eyes. In a flash, it was replaced by peace. A cunning Zhang Xiu, that''s all. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts have reached the level of ten thousand enemies.


    Yunwen Yunwu!


    This kind of Zhang embroidery made Cao Cao both admire and fear.


    "To have a child is like Zhang Jiangping!"


    Jiang Ping is the character of Zhang Xiu.


    Although Zhang Xiu is his son-in-law, it is a pity that he is not his son.


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    There was a cry in the army.


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    More and more soldiers began to shout.


    These soldiers in Cao''s army, from awe to madness, began to want to destroy Zhang Xiu. Even if Zhang Xiu is powerful, if he kills Zhang Xiu, then Zhang Xiu will no longer be able to cross the battlefield and have no enemies.


    With a shout, the hearts of countless people were touched, making the hearts of countless Cao soldiers have evil thoughts.


    Zhang Xiu heard the cry, but her expression was indifferent.


    Even if countless soldiers shout, Zhang Xiu is not afraid. Because Zhang Xiu knew very well that under such circumstances, Cao Cao could not kill him. He came at the invitation of Cao Cao, defeated Cao Cao''s generals, and was besieged to death in a twinkling of an eye. What do people think of Cao Cao?


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu is Cao Cao''s son-in-law.


    Under the superposition of several reasons, Cao Cao could not have ordered. Otherwise, Cao Cao could not stand in the world. Zhang Xiu picked up the overlord gun on the ground, did not look at Dianwei who fell on the ground, stood up with a gun, proud of all directions.


    Zhang Xiu rushes forward to protect Wang Yue.


    They both drew their swords out of their scabbard and were on guard.


    When Cao Cao saw the appearance of Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t help feeling.


    But without delay, he stood up and went straight to the stage. As Cao Cao walked on, all the soldiers were quiet, and no one spoke.


    Not long later, Cao Cao came to the stage, where his eyes passed, all silence.


    The noisy scene, silence down.


    Cao Cao said, "I am very disappointed today."


    The words are full of disappointment. The tone of the speech made all the Cao soldiers present completely confused.


    How can Sikong say this?


    For the soldiers in the army, Dianwei was the strongest and respected man. But for the soldiers in the army, Cao Cao is their soul and the real Optimus Prime.


    Cao Cao continued: "the soldiers under the command of this officer are men of clank, with clank and pride. If you can afford to take it and put it down, you are the one who can afford to lose. If you lose, you will not be red eyed to kill. You are so disappointing to me. "


    In a word, countless people were stunned.


    The look on Cao Jun''s soldiers'' faces changed from anger at the beginning to shame now.


    All the people were shamed by Cao Cao.


    In his early 40s, Cao Cao''s voice was loud. Now under the wind and snow, his voice is clear to every soldier''s ears. Cao Cao''s face was as deep as water, and he continued: "I have been fighting in the battlefield for nearly 20 years, and have gone through countless wars."


    "Won and lost."


    "Far away, let''s just say that the Chen palace rebellion in Yanzhou is closer. When Chen palace turned over, he welcomed Lu Bu into Yanzhou, which led to Lu Bu seizing most of Yanzhou. "


    "I didn''t become so angry when I was in a desperate situation. I can''t solve the problem because I''m angry. "


    "If you lose, admit it."


    "If you lose or lose, it''s a cowardly act to hide your ears and steal your bell. Instead of facing it squarely, you want to avoid it."


    Cao Cao spoke with great eloquence and said, "if you lose, it''s not terrible. As long as there is a breath left, you can cheer up and take up arms again. It''s a villain''s way to kill someone who loses but becomes angry. "


    "You can''t afford to lose. I can afford to lose."


    "I''m here for you."


    "If you come well, you have to leave intact."


    "This is the style of Cao Cao."


    Cao Cao''s tone was impassioned, and he said: "I''m not afraid of your failure. As long as you can fight again and again after your failure, you are heroes and the people I admire most."


    At this moment, countless soldiers were ashamed.


    "Plop!"


    Some soldiers in the army knelt down and pleaded with Cao Cao.


    "Plop! PlopCountless soldiers, constantly kneeling.


    In the whole school field, Cao Jun''s soldiers knelt down and pleaded guilty. Such a scene, in the eyes of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is also shocked, worthy of Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu asked herself that Cao Cao was not bad at all.


    Zhang Xiu defeated Xia Houdun, Xu Chu and Dian Wei, which destroyed the fighting spirit of Cao''s soldiers and made them lose all confidence. But now, although the soldiers kneel down, the war spirit in their eyes is amazing.


    Cao Cao''s words aroused the fighting spirit of the soldiers.


    Seeing the soldier''s action, Cao Cao nodded: "you know how to kneel down and plead guilty. Knowing that you have made a mistake proves that you still have a sense of shame. Today, although you are defeated by Zhang Xiu, in the future, when you meet Zhang Xiu on the battlefield, you still have the heart to fight again, dare to fight, and want to be ashamed before the snow. That is bloody son. "


    "Fight


    In the crowd, another soldier called out.


    "Fight


    "Fight


    One after another, the cry filled the sky.


    Countless soldiers shout, fighting will soar to the sky. The fighting spirit of Cao Cao''s soldiers was united again. Even because of the existence of Zhang Xiu, all soldiers seem to have a unified goal.


    That is to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Shame before snow!


    Cao Cao raised his hand and pressed down again, signaling to all the soldiers to be quiet. After everyone calmed down, Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "today''s martial arts practice is over. Disband!"


    The soldiers must be ordered to disband.


    After all the soldiers left, Cao Cao''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu and said with emotion, "my son-in-law, your martial arts are superb. In this world, only Lu Bu can compete with you. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m looking forward to the war with Lu Bu."


    For Lu Bu, Zhang Xiu knew that it was the God of war of the Xiliang army, and that it was an invincible existence. Even though Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are more and more powerful nowadays, she is not confident that she can defeat Lv Bu with her martial arts.


    Lu Bu is too strong.


    He is the one who can fight Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Liu Bei alone.


    Cao Cao laughed and said, "my son-in-law, would you like to have a drink with me in the army?"


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu answers with a smile.


    For Cao Cao''s previous words, Zhang Xiu is extremely admired. If he is Cao Cao, he may not be able to do better than Cao Cao even if he can restore his morale and stabilize the situation.


    Cao Cao''s words not only stabilized the situation, but also reversed the decline of the soldiers.


    Cao Cao went to Dian Wei and Xu Chu and said, "are you all right?"


    Dian Wei said: "I''ll tell you, my Lord, my humble position is all skin injuries. It doesn''t matter. I''m sorry to disappoint my Lord. "


    Xu Chu said: "incompetent in humble position!"


    Cao Cao laughed, patted them on the shoulder and said, "be brave after you know your shame, and practice your martial arts well. You are defeated now, but there may not be no room for improvement. Work hard and I expect you to win in the future


    "Here it is


    Dian Wei and Xu Chu answered.


    Cao Cao waved the two men back and led Zhang Xiu to the army tent.

 Chapter 480

    There is anthracite burning in the camp.


    The heat dissipated, dispelling the chill of the Chinese Army''s tent.


    Although most of the time, Cao Cao was in Sikong mansion, there were also Cao Cao''s barracks in the barracks to facilitate Cao Cao''s handling of military affairs.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao sat down in the tent. They sat opposite each other. In front of them was a table with a pot of warm wine and a dish of vegetables.


    Cao Cao poured wine for Zhang Xiu and said with a smile, "this is the first time for you and my son-in-law to sit in a bar like this."


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered with a smile.


    In the face of Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu can feel the charm of Cao Cao, that kind of free and easy, that kind of indifferent charm. However, Zhang Xiu did not fear Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao picked up the bottle and said with a smile, "my son-in-law, please!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu took the bottle and drank it down.


    Cao Cao said: "I''m close to the challenge arena. Before, my son-in-law and Xu Chu fought each other, singing loudly and bloodily. It''s just the last paragraph. You speak fast. I can''t hear you very well. Can you say it again? "


    Previously, Cao Cao noticed.


    Cao Cao''s song is hot.


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "the last paragraph, is my favorite."


    "Killing one is a crime, killing ten thousand is a hero. If you kill nine million, you will be the hero in the hero. "


    "As far as I''m concerned, I like it very much."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is the case in the troubled times."


    Cao Cao chewed it in his mouth, but he was also in high spirits and marveled. He said, "yes, yes, it''s really exquisite. I didn''t expect that my son-in-law was so outstanding in literary talent. "


    For the last paragraph, Cao Cao thought it was incisive.


    Although it''s killing, it''s a troubled time.


    In troubled times, heavy allusions should be used.


    Zhang Xiu was modest and poured wine for Cao Cao. She said, "I have a piece of news about my father-in-law."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the news?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Fude, the eldest son of Fuwan, has united with the officials in the court to overthrow you. They even put their ideas on me, trying to defeat my father-in-law with the help of my strength. "


    Cao Cao laughed and said, "son-in-law, you are not a fuel-efficient lamp."


    "What do you say?" Zhang Xiu talks with a smile.


    Cao Cao said: "you have clearly promised Fude and others that you will fight in Chang''an. But now, in the twinkling of an eye, you tell me the news. "


    "In my opinion, you are deliberately perfunctory, so that they continue to prepare against me."


    "Now, tell me the news again."


    "I hope I can deal with Ford and his party and have an infighting with them."


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "even if I can crush Fude and others, if I really kill these people, I''m afraid that countless people in the world will point at my nose and scold me as a thief, saying that I''m no different from Dong Zhuo. Is that right? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "my father-in-law misunderstood me. I''m just worried about his safety. How can I count on you?"


    Cao Cao said, "I don''t believe you."


    In fact, Zhang Xiu really has the mind of calculating Cao Cao, intending to pit Cao Cao.


    If Cao Cao really takes action and takes down Fude, Wangfu, Zhongji and others in one go to kill the officials in the court, it is bound to cause a great shock. Officials loyal to the emperor will surely compete to accuse Cao Cao of being a Han thief or a Cao thief.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Unexpectedly, he was immediately exposed by Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Alas, my father-in-law doesn''t believe me. I always treat people with sincerity and don''t like to cheat. My father-in-law, to be honest, I''m not worth it for you. "


    Cao Cao said: "how to say?"


    Zhang Xiu took the wine bottle to Cao Cao and drank a glass of wine. Warm wine, warm all over. He put down his wine glass and said, "my father-in-law is dedicated to maintaining the Han Dynasty''s rivers and mountains. He crusades against my ministers and breaks his heart for the Han Dynasty''s rivers and mountains."


    "My father-in-law is loyal to the emperor and devoted to serving the country."


    "Unfortunately, the father-in-law is not trusted by the emperor. The emperor is afraid of you, and the courtiers are jealous of you. All the people in the emperor''s family want you to die. I wish you would hand over your military power and political power and let them be in power. "


    "These people, however, have high eyes and low hands."


    "Let them govern the present court and manage the present world. I''m afraid it won''t be long before Yanzhou will fall apart. The imperial court just after the Qingming Festival is going to be in a mess again. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if there were no father-in-law in the Great Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty would have collapsed. Unfortunately, the father-in-law wanted to do something. The Emperor didn''t trust him, and the courtiers wanted to seize power. It''s hard. I''m not worth it for my father-in-law! "


    Cao Cao was silent when he heard the speech.


    He took the bottle in his hand, looked up and drank it.


    Zhang Xiu''s words poke at Cao Cao''s weakness. Although Cao Cao''s family was the only one, which suppressed Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and other people, Cao Cao also had a hard time in the court.Inward, rough.


    Outside the court, there was constant fighting.


    This situation is not easy.


    Unfortunately, the Emperor didn''t think so. The emperor thought that Cao Cao was in charge of everything. So far, Cao Cao can clap his chest and feel his conscience, saying that he is wholeheartedly toward the Han Dynasty, hoping to sweep away his followers and stabilize the situation in the world.


    Unfortunately, it''s not understood.


    However, Cao Cao''s mood, the blink of an eye to put away, did not reveal the slightest.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao said with a smile: "but it''s not so easy to do everything. Some difficulties are normal. Besides, it''s my own choice. It''s meaningless to talk about whether it''s worth it or not. "


    "No matter how hard it is, you have to swallow it. No matter how hard it is, you have to go up."


    "What''s more, I''ve been cleaning up the mess a little bit. I''m full of pride and achievement. I don''t think it''s worth it. Everything is worth it. "


    Cao Cao''s face is full of confidence.


    Thinking about the world gradually clear, Cao Cao''s heart, it is also full of endless pride.


    Zhang Xiu continued to bewitch: "if it were me, I would definitely not like it. To my people, I''m Zhang Xiu. If you don''t respect me, I will never be soft handed. "


    "Dong Cheng, Fu Wan, Fu De, Wang Fu and other people, if I were to uphold the government, even if I didn''t kill them, they would have been exiled long ago and thrown to a place where birds don''t poop, where they would not be allowed to jump all day long."


    "Father in law, you are so kind."


    "You''re just going to be determined and confused. The more you tolerate them, in fact, the more they jump up and down. In fact, you don''t want to be authoritarian, but you have to be authoritarian. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you don''t have exclusive power, you can''t handle the affairs of the central government."


    Cao Cao frowned.


    In his opinion, Zhang Xiu has not let go, still want to bewitch him to deal with the emperor.


    This kid is so cunning.


    It''s not a thing!


    Cao Cao doesn''t think he''s kind. He''s always been tough.


    In fact, Cao Cao''s heart just now, also moved by Zhang Xiu''s words, that Zhang Xiu understand him, is his confidant. But now, Cao Cao thinks that Zhang Xiu is slippery and will be hit if he doesn''t pay attention.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in fact, as long as your father-in-law is not dictatorial, you will fight in the front, and you will fight in the back. But as long as you have the power, and want to get a good reputation, and want to please the emperor, it is impossible


    "If you are dictatorial, you are the thief of Cao, the one who disrespects the emperor."


    "Those loyal to the emperor in the court will regard you as a thorn in the flesh. So in my opinion, the best way is to learn Dong Zhuo''s way. If you don''t agree with him, kill him. "


    "What''s more, it''s not Dong Zhuo''s time."


    Zhang Xiu said: "when Dong Zhuo was in charge of the imperial government, there were countless important officials in the world, including Lu Zhi, Xun Shuang, Yang Biao, Zhang Wen, Wang Yun, Huang Wan, Yuan Kai, Huangfu song and so on. There were countless people loyal to the emperor''s family in the imperial court."


    "But now?"


    "These people are almost dead."


    "Less, too little."


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as the father-in-law let go, he can completely control the government, leaving no one against you. Anyway, you''ve been scolded as a thief of Cao. Why hide and tuck in? "


    Cao Cao stroked his beard under his jaw and tut tut said, "my son-in-law, in my opinion, you are not the best at martial arts. Your martial arts are not the best in the world, because there are people like Lu Bu. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the most powerful?"


    Cao Cao said: "your mouth is extremely sharp. If you look around the world, you can''t find anyone to compete with you. You are bewitching me with your words. If you want to arouse my inner resentment, let me slaughter the Han ministers in the court and promote internal friction, you can''t think about it. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed: "it''s a pity that my father-in-law treated my kindness as a donkey''s liver and lung. Father in law, I just want to say one word. It''s painful to kill these people. But as long as you get through it, not only do you have no internal friction under your command, you are absolutely monolithic. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "especially some people headed by Xun Yu, although they are loyal to you, they also respect the emperor. They are always merciful when the emperor is here. The emperor is completely suppressed, and there will be no more action. Only in this way can you be completely stable under your command. "


    "You see, bluffing me again."


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "you, you, you really can bewitch people."

 Chapter 481

    But Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "my father-in-law is joking. I said that I always treat people with sincerity. I''m a sincere person. How can I bewitch people. That''s what I''ve done along the way. "


    "You see, under my rule, there is no internal friction."


    "When I was in charge of Nanyang County, the whole Nanyang County was not under my rule. My jurisdiction, only Yuyang county to the north of the region. At that time, the Deng family in Xinye was a strong family in Nanyang County. If the whole Deng family made efforts, the place under my rule would be in turmoil. "


    "But the Deng family in Xinye acted recklessly. I not only destroyed the people of the Deng family in Yuyang County, but also led the soldiers to Xinye, went to the door to ask a question, and destroyed the whole Deng family."


    Zhang Xiu said: "after I was in charge of Nanyang County, I killed countless people step by step, but no common people said how Zhang Xiu was. They all praised me. The reason is simple, I let them eat and warm up. "


    "But under my father-in-law?"


    "You are constantly fighting against all sides. You have also saved the people from war. You have not suffered any more. You have also fed and clothed the people. But what have you got?"


    "The people have never appreciated you."


    "People call you cao thief."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what you get is the reputation of Cao thief, the reputation of traitor."


    Cao Cao''s face is constantly changing.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, like a steel needle, poked directly into Cao Cao''s heart.


    Cao Cao knew it was true.


    However, Cao Cao had his own decision and said with a smile, "in this world, if you get something, you will pay something. What''s more, it''s my choice. There''s nothing to complain about. "


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is also filled with emotion. Cao Cao''s heart is as iron as stone.


    It''s hard to bewitch!


    Liu Biao and others have long been moved, but Cao Cao can''t bewitch him.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I didn''t say how my father-in-law complained. What I said was that my father-in-law killed Qingliu in the court and killed the officials who opposed you in the court. Then, you will have the sole power and no voice against you any more."


    Cao Cao laughed and did not speak.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "you are good to the people, let the people live a good life, and no one outside splashes your dirty water, then the reputation of your father-in-law will gradually improve. Alas, I have broken my heart for my father-in-law. I hope he can have a good reputation and live in peace. "


    "Come on!"


    Cao Cao said with a curl of his mouth: "you boy, you are all for my good. In my heart, I''m afraid I wish I had an accident. I wish I had made the imperial court a mess. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s hard to be a good man."


    "Come, come, drink!"


    Zhang Xiu took the wine bottle, respected Cao Cao again, and then drank it all in one gulp. Zhang Xiu drank today''s wine, not a bit drunk, because this wine is lower than later generations of beer, not much taste.


    Zhang Xiu knows the craft of wine making, but now the most scarce thing in the world is food. To make a really good wine, a lot of food has to be consumed, so Zhang Xiu has no idea of making wine for the time being.


    Food is not enough, how can we make wine wantonly.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s idea.


    But this kind of wine, for Zhang Xiu, is not drunk, you can drink at will.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao, you drink and I drink. Zhang Xiu is not drunk, but Cao Cao is different. In particular, Cao Cao is already in his early 40s. He is old and has a lot less alcohol.


    Before long, Cao Cao was a little drunk.


    Cao Cao''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He leaned his elbow against the table in front of him, and rubbed his chin beard with his hand. He said with emotion, "son-in-law, you have such a vast experience and more courage."


    "Would you like to be an official in the court?"


    "I promise that as long as you are willing to become an official in the court, I will order you to take the post of Taiwei according to the previous agreement. You and my son-in-law work together to clean up the turbid, clean up the universe, and help the world. It''s the easiest thing to do. "


    In the words, five more points of intoxication.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneers in her heart. Cao Cao pretends to be drunk. He was said to be an official in the imperial court, and he was said to be a Taiwei. But once Zhang Xiu entered the imperial court, he would hate for Cao Cao, and he would have a pot on his back.


    Zhang Xiu is not stupid.


    What''s more, in today''s world of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Xiu knows that she is safe outside. The most stable thing is to be a local emperor and to rise steadily.


    Entering the imperial court is a suicide.


    In fact, although Cao Cao threatened the emperor to order the princes, even if he was loyal to Cao Cao''s family, there were many people who were loyal to the Han Dynasty. In a short period of time, Cao Cao''s internal stability, in fact, also has considerable risks.


    However, Cao Cao has been ignoring this matter.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "my father-in-law asked me to be an official in the court, but one mountain can''t tolerate two tigers. How can my father-in-law deal with himself when I become an official? The officials under his father-in-law could not be convinced. Just, just, I''d better be in Chang''an. "


    "Pity, pity!"


    There was a light in Cao Cao''s eyes.


    He did pretend to be drunk.This is to test Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to be an official at all.


    Cao Cao said, "my son-in-law, do you think this great man can be saved in the world?"


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you have your father-in-law, you will be saved. This is not the case. Last year, Yue Zhang just defeated Yuan Shu and wiped out Chen Guo. There is no one in the world who dares to be an emperor. "


    Cao Cao said: "but there are other people, virtuous son-in-law. Don''t you want to be king and Emperor?"


    At this time, Cao Cao was still drunk.


    He was still testing.


    Take the opportunity to drink, take the opportunity to dress drunk, try Zhang Xiu''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the world of the Great Han is the land of the Liu family. Once you become an emperor or a king, the world will fight for it. I have nothing else to ask for. I just want to have a place to live in troubled times, to protect the people and to make them live and work in peace and contentment. My father-in-law and I are a family. My father-in-law supports the Hanshi, and I should be with him. "


    "Good, good, good boy."


    Cao Cao praises Zhang Xiu in his mouth and scolds Zhang Xiu in his heart. He is full of lies and can''t find a word of truth.


    Zhang xiudao said, "my father-in-law is in praise of me."


    Cao Cao tried again and again, but he still couldn''t find out the depth of Zhang Xiu, so he stopped talking. After drinking two more glasses of wine, he fell on the table.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu walked out of the camp and left with Wang Yue and others.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Cao Cao woke up and ordered people to take the drinks, while Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others entered the camp immediately after.


    Xia Houdun looked solemn and said: "Sikong, Zhang Xiu is too dangerous. Do you really want to connive him to sit up and let him return to Chang''an? "


    Cao Cao asked, "are you going to kill him?"


    "If you don''t kill him, that''s a big threat," said XiahouDun


    Cao Cao snorted: "kill him, where is my official''s reputation? If you kill him, there will be enough reason for the emperor to criticize me. If you kill him, Chen Bing''s tens of thousands of Zhang Xiu troops at the border will enter Yanzhou. Can you afford the consequences? "


    Xia Houdun didn''t say anything, just thought of being defeated by Zhang Xiu, thought of the whole army being beaten by Zhang Xiu, Xia Houdun''s heart was helpless.


    Cao Cao continued: "instead of thinking about how to kill Zhang Xiu, it''s better to think about how to train soldiers and improve their combat effectiveness. This is the most important thing. My official and Zhang Xiu are not only the masters of each side, but also the son-in-law of Weng. "


    XiahouDun''s face changed slightly.


    He almost forgot that Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is Cao Cao''s son-in-law.


    XiahouDun said no more, turned and stepped down. Cao Hong was silent from beginning to end and left with him.


    Cao Cao was sitting alone in the camp, but his eyes were thoughtful, and he murmured: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you really make me difficult. If I don''t kill you, I''ll let the tiger go. To kill you is to burn yourself. "


    In fact, Cao Cao is also entangled.


    But Cao Cao''s heart, after all, is not to kill Zhang Xiu''s mind, occupy the upper hand, just did not fight against Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 482

    After leaving the barracks, Zhang Xiu returns to Laifu inn. At this time, Wang Yue was relieved and said with emotion: "Lord, I was in Cao Jun''s camp before. The pressure was too great. If I don''t pay attention, I''ll take five steps. That''s really worrying. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "isn''t that ok?"


    Wang Yue also saw big scenes, but the previous scene was still haunted. He didn''t talk to Zhang Xiu much. When he left the hall, he arranged for the royal guards in Laifu inn.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the Inn and didn''t go out.


    A day is fleeting.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu still gets up early and exercises in the yard. Although it''s snowing heavily, it''s very normal for Zhang Xiu to practice in summer and winter.


    He who practices martial arts diligently will never stop.


    If you don''t practice for three days, once you don''t practice for a long time, your martial arts will be affected.


    After the morning exercise, Zhang Xiu read a book in her study.


    At this time, Wang Yue came in in a hurry with a happy look on his face and reported: "Lord, the son of heaven has called you to report your work in the palace. Let''s meet the emperor earlier, and then we can return to Chang''an. "


    He is responsible for protecting Zhang Xiu''s safety. When he is in Xudu, he always feels insecure and dangerous.


    Wang Yue added: "not only that, the emperor specially sent a car to the gate of the inn to greet the LORD with the emperor''s car. There are only a few people in the world who can get such treatment. "


    Between words, Wang Yue was very proud.


    This is proud of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "let''s go!"


    For Zhang Xiu, what the emperor drives, what the emperor rewards, is a false name.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about these.


    People in this era have the idea of being loyal to the emperor. When they hear that the emperor has given them cars and food, they are moved to tears and tears.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t care much about such things.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the son of heaven is just the son of heaven. Of course, in the first life of Zhang Xiu, she would be in awe of the emperor, but with the knowledge and experience of later generations and the colorful world, her heart has already changed and is no longer Zhang Xiu in the past.


    Zhang Xiu left Laifu Inn with Wang Yue and Deng Zhan, boarded the carriage and went to the imperial city.


    Zhang Xiu is in the carriage, but Wang Yue and Deng Zhan are on horseback.


    They didn''t even have the courage to sit on the shaft.


    That''s the emperor''s car.


    When they arrived at the gate of the Imperial City, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan were waiting outside the palace. Zhang Xiu''s carriage galloped all the way to the palace without any pause.


    When Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the hall, his own attendants took off his cloak for him.


    Zhang Xiu shakes her robes and strides in.


    He knows what happened today.


    Today, everything revolves around the manufacturing process of rice paper.


    After Zhang Xiu entered, her eyes swept. In addition to Yang Biao, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng, there are also Kong Rong, Wang Fu and Wu Shuo in the hall. They say that all the people loyal to the emperor''s family are here.


    What a big battle!


    Zhang Xiu sighed that the emperor summoned so many officials in order to seize the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper. Instead of calling so many people together, Zhang Xiu would certainly summon them alone, move them with emotion, explain them with reason, and influence Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, Liu Xie did not do so.


    After Zhang Xiu stood still, she bowed her hand and said, "I''d like to meet your majesty, Zhang Xiu. May your majesty, long live, long live. "


    For Liu Xie, Zhang Xiu maintained the respect on the surface, without any overstepping.


    With a smile on his face, Liu Xie said, "Zhang Qing, sit down!"


    Immediately, there was a servant who handed the seat.


    Zhang Xiu sat down immediately.


    Today''s position of Zhang Xiu is in the first place on the right, and it is in the front. According to Zhang Xiu''s official position, it may not be able to rank at the top, but today all this has changed.


    As the saying goes, courtesy to people must ask for something.


    After Zhang Xiu took her seat, Liu Xie took the initiative to say, "I already know what Zhang Qing did in Guanzhong. Zhang Qing is stable in Guanzhong. When Zhang Qing is here, thieves dare not be arrogant. Zhang Qing is no different from the pillar of the state to our great Han Dynasty. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "Your Majesty''s praise, I am not worthy."


    "Alas..."


    At this time, Liu Xie sighed again.


    Zhang Xiu knows that this is Liu Xie''s words, he asked: "why does your majesty sigh?"


    Liu Xie heard, a pair of eyes, including crystal clear tears, a helpless appearance. "Zhang Qing, it''s hard for me," he said, choking with pain on his face


    Zhang xiudao said, "what''s the problem with your majesty?"


    Liu Xie said: "I am now trapped in the deep palace. I have no soldiers and no power in my hands. What''s more, I have been bullied by the thieves of Cao. The situation is difficult. If I want to crack down on Cao thieves, I must have a good army. Therefore, I want to train a good army to crack down on Cao thieves. It''s a pity that I have no money to train. It''s said that a penny is hard to defeat a hero, but I''m hard! "Zhang xiudao said, "Your Majesty''s hardship is well known to me."


    Liu Xie nodded and continued: "in today''s situation, unless you have money, you can have a chance to set things right. I heard that Zhang Qing had mastered the manufacturing technology of rice paper. With this technology, he could make rice paper continuously and make money every day. "


    After a pause, Liu Xie stood up, bowed his hand to Zhang Xiu, and said: "I sincerely ask Zhang Qing to present the manufacturing technology of rice paper, so that I can make rice paper, earn money, recruit soldiers and fight against Cao thieves."


    At this moment, Liu Xie finally showed his tusks.


    But Liu Xie''s method is mild, and he intends to let Zhang Xiu hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper.


    Zhang Xiu gets up to avoid Liu Xie''s salute, but she doesn''t answer immediately. She seems to be pondering.


    "Your Majesty, I object!"


    At this time, the deep and loud voice came out, but Kong Rong stood up.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Kong Rong''s words, she began to smile.


    This is his response.


    Liu Xie asked him to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper, but Zhang Xiu didn''t give a direct answer.


    Well, let Kong Rong talk about it.


    Of course, it is not difficult for Zhang Xiu to persuade Liu Xie. If it is handed over to Kong Ronglai, he will attract all the firepower.


    This is Kong Rong''s gain and loss.


    If he wants to work for Zhang Xiu, he must prove himself.


    In a way, it''s a roll call.


    Kong Rong went to Zhang Xiu and didn''t go to see her. With a solemn look, he arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, I''m against letting General Zhang hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. Your Majesty''s practice is extremely inappropriate. "


    Liu Xie''s face changed greatly.


    Asshole!


    Damn Kong Rong, he dares to spoil his good deeds.


    Now Liu Xie is sure to win Xuan paper. If Liu Xie could not get the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper, he would not be able to accumulate countless money. Without money, Liu Xie has no army. With money, Liu Xie has capital.


    Liu Xie said angrily, "Kong Rong, get out of here."


    Kong Rong raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I''m thinking for your Majesty''s sake. This is my painstaking effort."


    "Somebody


    "Come on, beat Kong Rong out for me!"


    Liu Xie cried out, his face was cold and ferocious. At this moment, Liu Xie and Kong Rong have the heart to kill. Liu Xie will kill anyone who stops him.


    Liu Xie does not allow anyone to obstruct his great cause.


    If the soldiers enter quickly, they will attack Kong Rong.


    "Stop it!"


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu drank.


    Liu Xie frowned and asked, "what do you mean, Zhang Qing?"


    At this time, Liu Xie lost his mind and his eyes were sharp. That almost crazy look, that almost crazy look, let Zhang Xiu see, but his heart shook his head and sneered.


    Liu Xie is too weak!


    This kind of Liu Xie makes people feel disrespectful.

 Chapter 483

    Facing Liu Xie''s question, Zhang Xiu was calm, not impatient, and said, "Your Majesty, if you listen to both sides, you will be wise, and if you believe something, you will be dark. For one thing, there are supporters and opponents. There must be some reasons for Kong Rong''s opposition. Why don''t you listen to what Kong Rong says and deal with it later? What does your majesty think? "


    "Good!"


    Liu Xie is reluctant to reply.


    Now he asks Zhang Xiu to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper, but he doesn''t want to tear his face with Zhang Xiu. In other words, because of Liu Xie''s nature, Zhang Xiu disobeyed the order and executed Zhang Xiu directly.


    Liu Xie''s eyes are cold, and he stares at Kong Rong, as if to expose him. His tone is cold, light way: "Kong Rong, you pour is to say, what is the reason that opposes?"


    Kong Rong raised his head, without any fear and hesitation, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the reason why I object is that even if you can master the manufacturing technology of rice paper presented by Zhang Jiangjun?"


    "The thief Cao is treacherous and ruthless. As long as your majesty lets people make rice paper in Xudu or even Yanzhou, the news will surely come to the thief Cao''s ears and be noticed by him."


    "With the strength of Cao thief, it''s easy to seize the manufacturing technology of rice paper."


    "Your Majesty wanted the manufacturing technology of rice paper. He wanted to earn money to recruit people. But before the recruitment, the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper fell into the hands of Cao thief. "


    "In the end, it helped to increase the prestige of the Cao thief."


    Kong Rong said, "the strength of Cao thief is strong. In fact, he has been short of money and food. Once the Xuan paper falls into the hands of Cao thief, he will have a cornucopia and will earn money every day without any lack of money. "


    "Then, the strength of Cao thief will be stronger."


    "At that time, if you want to kill the thief Cao again, it will be very difficult."


    Kong Rong continued: "therefore, I think that the manufacturing technology of rice paper presented by general Zhang is extremely inappropriate. In the end, it will increase the strength of the Cao thief. "


    "Kong Rong, you are presumptuous!"


    At this time, Fu Wan stood up.


    Fu Wan did not agree with Fu De''s plan to deal with Cao Cao, but he agreed to seize the manufacturing technology of rice paper. In Fu Wan''s opinion, even if the manufacturing process of Xuan paper leaks, what''s the impact?


    The Fu family is sure to make money.


    That''s enough!


    Fu Wan faced Kong Rong and scolded: "Kong Rong, you are the descendant of Kong Sheng, an important official of the imperial court, and a famous Confucian in the world. What you have done is disappointing. "


    Zhang Xiu stood aside, did not intervene, because today is Kong Rong''s home.


    "Disappointed?"


    Kong Rong smiles with confidence and asks, "how can I disappoint you, Kong Rong? In other words, how can Kong Rong let Fu Guozhang down? "


    In the face of Fu Wan, Kong Rong is not afraid at all.


    When he faced Zhang Xiu, he was rejected by Zhang Xiu. But when he faced the end of the fall, he was not afraid.


    He has enough confidence.


    In this world, there is only one Zhang Xiu. In this world, not everyone is Zhang Xiu.


    Fu Wan stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "the manufacturing technology of rice paper is the most important link for your majesty. If you don''t have the manufacturing technology of rice paper, your majesty will not be able to recruit people without a source of income. "


    Kong Rong said: "recruit troops and buy horses?"


    "Hum, can you resist Cao''s army with just a few troops?"


    "Even if there are troops, what can we do? It''s nothing more than a dying struggle. For your majesty, even if you benefit from the manufacturing process of rice paper, the one who benefits the most is still Cao thief. "


    Kong Rong said: "this result will lead to the complete enhancement of the strength of Cao thief."


    "You are presumptuous After scolding, he said.


    Kong Rong raised his head and said in a voice: "what am I presumptuous about? I just told the truth. You have always cherished your body when dealing with Cao Cao. "


    "Even if your son Fude is actively planning and dealing with Cao Cao."


    "You, from beginning to end, don''t participate."


    "Now, you are actively asking general Zhang to give up the papermaking technology of rice paper. What is your plot? Don''t I know? What you are plotting is to get the manufacturing technology of rice paper. "


    Kong Rong said, "in this way, you Fu family can profit from it, can''t you?"


    "Do great things, you cherish your body!"


    "There''s interest, you jump up and down. People like you are in vain. You can''t even compare with your own son, Fude. I look down on you. "


    Kong Rong big sleeve a whisk, way: "retreat for me, talk with you, let me all over uncomfortable."


    Kick! Kick!


    Fu Wan''s face changed again and again, but he was forced to retreat one after another.


    At this moment, even if it''s over, there''s no face left. He couldn''t refute winning Kong Rong, so he had to say: "Kong Rong, you are really crazy, you are completely crazy."


    With that, I went back to my seat.


    Stop talking.Zhongji stood up and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Kong, I don''t agree with what you said."


    Kong Rong said, "why?"


    Zhongji held his head high and tossed the ground with a voice: "Your Majesty needs the papermaking technology of Xuan paper. As a minister, Zhang Xiu should hand it over unconditionally for your majesty to have. Now, what do you mean, waving the flag and shouting for Zhang Xiu? Don''t you want to rebel? "


    Zhang Xiu was not very fond of Zhongji.


    At the meeting of Liushui Pavilion, Zhongji conflicted with Zhang Xiu.


    Now, Zhongji starts again.


    Kong Rong stares at Zhong Ji with sharp eyes and says, "what kind of thing is Zhong Ji? It''s just a martial arts man. In front of Kong Rong, I have no qualification to speak. "


    "The headless and brainless people, barking above the hall, are disgraceful."


    "The strength of the Cao thief is already strong, and they have been elevated. At this time, his majesty took great pains to bring up the manufacturing technology of rice paper, and then he was seized by the thief Cao. "


    "Do you want to help the thief Cao?"


    "In other words, you are the spy of Cao thief."


    Kong Rong''s words are sharp, and his combat effectiveness is explosive. He was very high spirited and said in a loud voice: "Zhongji, you are not qualified to bark in front of me. You still have to leave."


    "You, you..."


    Zhong Ji was scolded by Kong Rong, and his breath was not even.


    However, he was speechless.


    Zhongji was originally a Wufu, and kongfong was a descendant of Confucius. In front of such a great Confucian as Kong Rong, Zhong Ji had no room for resistance.


    This is due to the identities of both sides.


    There''s too much difference in status.


    Kong Rong raised his head, looked at Liu Xie again, and solemnly said: "Your Majesty, I would like to ask you a lesson from your heart. I know that I will offend your majesty, but I still speak for your Majesty''s sake. Please think twice. "


    Liu Xie''s eyes were full of killing intention.


    Damn it!


    Kong Rong, damn it!


    Liu Xie wanted to kill Kong Rong in his heart. However, Liu Xie knew that Kong Rong was a great scholar in the world and could not be killed casually. So Liu Xie said, "Kong Rong, you keep thinking about me, but who knows what you think? You, Kong Rong, are not worthy to be a minister of Han Dynasty. From today on, there is no need to go to court again. Somebody, call me out. "


    Another soldier, step forward again.


    Kong Rong looked at the soldiers coming and said, "wait a minute!"


    The soldier stopped immediately.


    A pair of eyes, Qi brush fell on Kong Rong''s body.


    Kong Rong raised his head and said: "today, your majesty is so credulous in slander that he is not willing to listen to advice. You don''t have to be so troublesome to expel your majesty. Minister Kong Rong, please leave


    With that, Kong Rong takes off the Jinxian crown on his head, turns around and strides away.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Liu Xie scolded repeatedly. He didn''t expect that Kong Rong would come here. In the case of Kong Rong''s resignation, it is equivalent to the fact that Liu Xie does not listen to the admonition.


    Kong Rongzheng is proud, and he will get a good reputation.


    Liu Xie was harrowed.


    Just like this, Liu Xiecai kept drinking and scolding, and his face was full of rage.


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes and praised her in her heart. It is worthy of Kong Rong. In the presence of Liu Xie, the combat effectiveness burst out, which is really a burst of praise for Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 484

    In the eyes of the public, Kong Rong strode away. At this time, Kong Rong felt very comfortable and relaxed. Compared with the wariness and carefulness under the command of the emperor.


    Now that she has turned to Zhang Xiu, she feels very comfortable.


    Comfortable!


    Have fun!


    With a smile in his mouth, Kong Rong strode away.


    After Kong Rong left, Zhang Xiu''s face was still calm. He looked at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, what Kong Rong said just now is reasonable. When Cao XuanCao handed over the paper, he was not willing to make the paper


    Zhongji had been rejected before, and there was endless anger in his heart.


    At this time, when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he immediately became angry and stood up again and said, "Zhang Xiu, in front of your majesty, what do you say to think about your majesty? Hum, if you are loyal to your majesty, you will immediately hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper. What you say is that you don''t want to do it. "


    A fierce color flashed in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    It''s really annoying.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu stepped forward, she immediately came to Zhongji. His left hand flashed out, grabbed the clothes in front of Zhong Ji''s body, and yanked forward.


    In an instant, Zhongji has a feeling of being watched by a fierce tiger. It''s useless for him to struggle. He is directly dragged to Zhang Xiu''s body.


    "What a noise


    Zhang Xiu swung her right hand directly and slapped her.


    "Pa!"


    The loud slap reverberated in the hall.


    "People like you have no brains. If you are loyal to your majesty, you are harming your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu said, once again.


    "Pa!"


    Another loud slap came out.


    "In the past, there was no one in the court. You thought you were great and dared to speak freely. If you have the ability, you will kill Cao Cao in front of him. "


    "If you have the ability, you should kill Cao Cao now."


    "In front of Ben, there is no room for you to bark. If I don''t clean you up, do you really think that I dare not attack you? "


    "Pa! Pop! "Pop!"


    Zhang Xiu spoke in her mouth, but her right hand kept slapping her face.


    A loud slap came out.


    That scene shocked everyone in the hall. No one thought that the gentle Zhang Xiu suddenly burst out with such a strong fighting force and would be so fierce.


    At this moment, I was confused.


    He felt hot on his face, and even felt that his face was not his own.


    "Get out of here!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink. In a flash, he put his strength on his hand and threw it hard. Then he saw that Zhong Ji''s strong body rose from the ground, crossed an arc in the air and fell to the door of the main hall.


    Brush!


    The faces of the officials were even more shocked.


    How terrible!


    Zhang Xiu is so terrible. You know, Zhongji is also a strong man. But in front of Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t resist it and was thrown to the door.


    This situation is shocking.


    At the moment, some soldiers heard the movement in the hall and quickly came to the door of the hall, looking like they were going to fight.


    Seeing this, Liu Xie yelled, "step back!"


    The soldiers had to step down.


    After the soldiers retreated, everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu again.


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face was indifferent, and she said slowly: "Your Majesty, I''m so impulsive that I can''t suppress my anger. I beg your pardon for the offence. "


    Liu Xie smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    At this moment, when he looked at Zhang Xiu, he had some fear.


    How terrible!


    Zhang Xiu looks gentle and elegant. This move is absolutely furious.


    Gudong!


    Liu Xie swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    He sat upright, moved back a little, and retreated about three inches. Then, Liu Xie Cai said: "Zhang Qing, although Zhongji is rude, what you just did is a little too much."


    At this point, Liu Xie immediately added: "however, it''s not a big deal. Zhang Qing doesn''t have to worry about Zhongji''s rude remarks. Zhang Qing doesn''t have to worry about the papermaking technology of Xuan paper. She won''t reveal it easily. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "where does your majesty get confidence?"


    Liu Xie frowned at the speech.


    Zhang Xiu''s question just now, however, was a little too much for a minister to say.


    Liu Xie said, "Zhang Qingxin can''t believe me?"


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is still indifferent, said: "I can trust your majesty, but I can''t trust you. Even Fu De and Chen believed more. Yesterday, I took part in the culture meeting of Liushui Pavilion. At that time, Prince Fu invited Weichen to set up an army in Chang''an to fight against Cao thieves. I agreed. "


    "I am loyal to your majesty. I can show the sun and the moon. I have no two hearts.""Why refuse your majesty since I have agreed with you? This is not thankless. The reason why I agree with Master Kong is that he is right. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "if you give the rice paper to your majesty, the manufacturing technology of rice paper will eventually leak, resulting in Cao Cao''s strength soaring. At that time, how can I fight against Zhang Xiu? Isn''t that asking for trouble? "


    After hearing this, Liu Xie looked dignified.


    It seems so.


    Liu Xie''s heart has always been to weigh interests. If he got the manufacturing technology of rice paper, he could make money by making paper. But this kind of method is helpless, and the speed of effect is slow.


    For a while, there will be no effect. But if Zhang Xiu is willing to fight against Cao Cao, this is the most direct. In particular, Zhang Xiu once defeated Cao Cao, and her strength was amazing. It''s just around the corner to defeat Cao Cao.


    Liu Xie is excited.


    Fu end see, even busy way: "Your Majesty, don''t listen to Zhang Xiu''s words."


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "Your Majesty, do you see it? This is Fu Wan. Everything is based on his own interests. In a word, I don''t like a fool like Zhongji. But in fact, the collection is in good condition. "


    The collection is at the gate of the palace. After hearing it, I don''t know whether I should be happy or angry.


    After the fall, he was very angry.


    Regardless of Fu Wan''s thoughts, Zhang Xiu continued: "although he is the father-in-law of the state here, what he stresses is the family and the country. First there is a family and then there is a country. He is not a true loyal minister."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said again, "Your Majesty, you don''t want the papermaking technology. You''ll be in a hurry when you''re finished. It is clear that there is the best way to attack the Cao thief, but Fu Wan refuses to let me attack the Cao thief. Your majesty, such people stay with you and worry about your future. "


    Brush!


    The expression changes again and again.


    He did not expect, Zhang Xiu so arrogant, a mouth is too sharp.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, since you want to stand on the side of Fu Wan, I have nothing to say. If you don''t send any more troops, you''d better stay in Chang''an. It''s also risky to fight Cao Cao. "


    On hearing this, Liu Xie was in a hurry.


    With Zhang Xiu, Liu Xie Cai saw the opportunity.


    Although Liu Xie put interests first, he was timid and selfish. But in fact, Liu Xie is not stupid. He has his own wisdom and consideration.


    Considering Zhang Xiu''s words, he has plans in mind. If Zhang Xiu defeats Cao Cao, what if it''s the next Dong Zhuo? But what Liu Xie thinks more is that as long as Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao fight, he will have a chance.


    What if both sides lose?


    Liu Xie was determined and said, "Zhang Qing, don''t worry. Don''t be angry about what you said. Fu Qing, what to say and what not to say, don''t you have a score? Apologize to Zhang Qing. "


    After hearing the words, his face changed greatly.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneers. This is Liu Xie. For the sake of interests, he can give up anyone under his command. In order to protect themselves, you can also abandon anyone as a turtle.


    This is Liu Xie.

 Chapter 485

    Fu finished an old face, but also in this moment.


    Apologizing?


    He apologized to Zhang Xiu.


    You know, he was the uncle of the dynasty. Moreover, he married Princess Yang''an, the eldest daughter of emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty. According to his status, he was a royal and the elder of Liu Xie, but now he has to apologize.


    Fu Wan was stunned and did not speak. He pretended to be stupid and ignored Liu Xie''s words. However, Liu Xie once again said, "Fu Qing, I want you to apologize. Why, don''t you want to apologize? "


    Now, there''s no way to go back.


    In the face of the little emperor''s orders, even if he was the father-in-law, he could only recognize them. Facing Zhang Xiu, he arched his hand and said, "General Zhang, I''m not considerate. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s nothing. I''m too lazy to talk to you. I''ll learn more from your son. As the saying goes, "if you are not young, I admire you for your way of dealing with people."


    Liu Xie placed all his hopes on Zhang Xiu and said, "Zhang Qing, when you return to Chang''an, you will send troops to attack Cao Cao as soon as possible. I''m waiting for your good news. "


    "Yes, sir


    Zhang Xiu said: "please rest assured that your majesty will send troops to defeat Cao Cao and win the war."


    "I''ll see!"


    Liu Xie had a happy look on his face.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Your Majesty, if you have a word, you can only state it in front of your majesty. Please hold back."


    Liu Xie said, "let''s all step back!"


    "Here it is


    Everyone stepped down.


    Fu Wan strode out, looking at Zhang Xiu, eyes full of anger. But he also has no way, because even the emperor is on Zhang Xiu''s side, he can''t revenge Zhang Xiu.


    In the main hall, only Liu Xie and Zhang Xiu were left.


    No one else.


    Liu Xie had a soft smile on his slightly tender face and said with a smile, "Zhang Qing, what''s the matter with you asking me to hold back?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "I ask your majesty to give me an imperial edict against Cao Cao. In this way, when I return to Chang''an, I can mobilize my troops to attack Cao Cao."


    "The reason for his majesty to hold back is that there are too many people in charge of the position, which leads to the leakage of information and makes Cao Cao know that his ministers have an imperial edict to attack. At that time, Cao Cao will not let his ministers leave."


    "Now everyone is retreating. Even though Cao Cao has many eyes and ears and knows that we are plotting against him, he doesn''t know our imperial edict and can''t say anything. After all, Cao Cao knows to deal with him."


    Zhang Xiu made a request.


    For Zhang Xiu, if there is an imperial edict for a crusade, it is even more unfavourable.


    "No problem!"


    When Liu Xie heard this, he became excited.


    That''s a good thing.


    This proves that Zhang Xiu really wants to attack Cao Cao, so Liu Xie''s heart is extremely down-to-earth.


    Immediately, Liu Xie got an imperial edict.


    Liu Xie raised his pen and wrote the imperial edict quickly. He wrote the imperial edict against Cao Cao and took out his emperor''s seal. After the ink dried up, Liu Xie handed the imperial edict to Zhang Xiu and said, "Zhang Qing, everything depends on you."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Your Majesty can rest assured that I will do my best to live up to your high expectations."


    To the little emperor, he can cheat.


    In short, let the little emperor believe that is.


    Zhang Xiu put away the emperor''s imperial edict and said again, "Your Majesty, I have one more thing to report."


    Liu Xie was in a good mood and said, "Zhang Qing, it''s OK to say so."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Your Majesty, do you know the contradiction between the minister and Yuan Shao?"


    "What contradiction?" Liu Xie asked


    Zhang Xiu replied: "Yuan Shao sent troops to Hongnong county and occupied Hanoi county. He led the fight, defeated Yuan Shao''s army, killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and destroyed nearly 50000 Yuan Shao''s troops. "


    "Now, Yuan Shao has a grudge against his ministers, and he wants to kill them quickly."


    "It is estimated that after the Spring Festival, Yuan Shaohui will attack Hanoi with his army."


    "So this year, I have to resist Yuan Shao''s attack first. When Yuan Shao''s affairs are solved, the officials will fight against Cao thief. Your majesty is in Xudu and will wait patiently. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "please rest assured your majesty, I will come to rescue your majesty."


    On hearing this, Liu Xie frowned.


    As a puppet, Liu Xie''s heart has long been full of reluctance to be a puppet. Many times, he wanted to turn the situation around and take charge of the government. I''m eager to see the opportunity, but I have to wait a little longer. I''m still unwilling.


    Liu Xie raised his eyebrows and said, "can''t you ignore Yuan Shao?"


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she sneered.


    Stupid Liu Xie!


    As for Liu Xie''s words, Zhang Xiu is extremely dissatisfied with Liu Xie.


    What do you mean no matter Yuan Shao?


    It is such a fool as Liu Xie who can say such a thing.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, if you don''t care about Yuan Shao and let Yuan Shao drive straight in, Chang''an will be unstable. At that time, how can the soldiers attack Cao Cao with all their strength? Your majesty is a talented man who knows the art of war and strategy. Under such circumstances, Yuan Shao did not block him and Cao Cao did not defeat him. That is to say, neither side will get any benefit. "In Liu Xie''s heart, he was full of unwillingness.


    Zhang Xiu said again, "Your Majesty, after you leave, you immediately order to reprimand Yuan Shao and forbid him to send troops. As long as Yuan Shao doesn''t resist the order and doesn''t send troops to Hanoi, he can send troops in his humble position. "


    "No problem!"


    Liu Xie''s heart, suddenly happy.


    Zhang Xiu saw Liu Xiexi''s Zizi side, but she sneered at her heart.


    Liu Xie wanted to reprimand Yuan Shao, let alone reprimand Yuan Shao. Even Cao Cao would not agree. In particular, this is the next Ming edict reprimand, must go through a pass of Cao Cao.


    Without Cao Cao''s consent, it would be impossible to issue an imperial edict.


    Now Cao Cao dare not provoke Yuan Shao.


    Under such a premise, Cao Cao would not agree at all. Therefore, the so-called issue of reprimand is just Zhang Xiu''s words to stabilize Liu Xie.


    Nowadays, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to attack Cao Cao.


    With a happy look on his face, Liu Xie said again, "Zhang Qing, the court is in a difficult situation now. You should start early rather than late. I don''t know. When does Zhang Qing plan to leave? "


    Zhang Xiu wants to laugh.


    He is still in Xudu. Liu Xie has urged him to leave.


    Zhang Xiu replied, "Your Majesty, after I have arranged things properly, I will leave for Chang''an."


    "Good, good!"


    Liu Xie nodded his approval and was very pleased.


    Zhang Xiu had nothing to say. She stopped staying and said, "Your Majesty, I''m leaving!"


    "Go, go!"


    Liu Xie waved his hand and couldn''t wait.


    Zhang Xiu turned to exit the hall and walked out of the hall. When he came to the gate of the Imperial City, he saw soldiers searching Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and others who had entered the palace before.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu is not flustered.


    Now that he has entered the palace, there are no soldiers to search him. After all, his identity is different.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care. She strides to the gate of the palace. When the soldiers at the gate want to search Zhang Xiu''s body, they are dragged by the captain.


    In an instant, the soldiers who are ready to go forward stop and let Zhang Xiu go away.


    Zhang Xiu boarded the carriage and went back and forth to Fu inn.


    At the gate of the palace, the captain, who was in charge of guarding the gate of the city, looked at the soldiers who were going to search Zhang Xiu, and yelled: "bastard, don''t you have any eyesight? That''s Zhang Xiu, Sikong Dujing. Such a person, you dare to go forward. "


    When the soldiers heard the words, they even said thank you.


    The words spread to Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and others who were still being searched, and they were very unhappy.


    Don''t frisk Zhang Xiu!


    But they can''t.


    Zhang embroidery out of the palace, straight back to Fu inn. After arriving at Laifu Inn, Zhang Xiu relaxed. Up to now, he has completed the task of sending an envoy.


    Whether it''s seeking for an official position or stabilizing the little emperor, it''s all finished.


    Zhang Xiu has a rest in the inn. He is going to wait for lunch. After a short rest in the afternoon, he goes to Sikong mansion to say goodbye.


    Mission complete, time to go.

 Chapter 486

    Fu family, gate.


    After lying down, his face was as heavy as water, and he had a cold look on his face. Come out from the palace, Fu Wan''s face has always been very bad, a look of anger.


    He has been a respectable man for many years, and the emperor is his son-in-law. Over the years, he has been treated with great respect by both courtiers and the emperor, but he never thought that the little emperor ordered him to apologize to Zhang Xiu in order to please her.


    Who is Zhang Xiu?


    A man!


    You know, his Fu family has been noble for generations, and he is a Zanying family.


    What about Zhang Xiu?


    It''s just a mud leg.


    For Fu Wan, his apology to Zhang Xiu is tantamount to hitting him in the face and aiming at him. Under such circumstances, Fuwan''s heart is full of resentment and unwillingness.


    He wants revenge!


    In the study, Fu Wan took up a pen to write with the intention of calming himself down. But a scene in the hall reverberated in my mind, which made me unable to calm down my anger for a long time.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    "Zhang Xiu, child, deceives people too much!"


    "Little emperor, do you really think that you are the son of heaven and can humiliate people at will? Now you are just a puppet. "


    He murmured to himself.


    He held the brush in his hand and threw it directly to the ground. The ink splashed on the ground, making the ground black.


    After lying down, he was short of breath and stood up. His anger was still hard to vent. He went to the seat and saw the vase on one side. With a wave of his hand, he knocked the vase to the ground.


    "Bang Dang!"


    The vase fell to the ground and broke.


    "Creak!"


    At this time, the door was pushed open, and a dignified and elegant young man strode in.


    Come on, it''s Ford.


    When he saw the vase on the ground and the ink on the ground, his brow wrinkled slightly. Immediately, he called for the attendant to clean up the broken vase and the ink on the ground.


    When the valet quit, he closed the door with a creak.


    Fu De stares at fury Fu Wan, light way: "father, still living sullen?"


    Fu Wan said, "what do you say?"


    Fude said in a deep voice: "my son has heard about what my father did in the hall. To put it bluntly, the son didn''t agree with his father. On the contrary, his son agrees with Kong Rong''s words and Zhang Xiu''s actions. "


    "Rebellious son!"


    Fu Wan gritted his teeth and said, "you know, I''m your father. What does Zhang Xiu have to do with you? What does he have to do with you? I and you are the family. They have nothing to do with you. "


    Fu De said solemnly with a solemn look: "father, can my son help me or not. As for the situation in the main hall, my son agrees with Kong Rong''s analysis. Cao Tsai is so cunning. In the vast capital of Xu Du, countless people are the eyelid of Cao thief.


    "even in the palace, there are Cao''s eyeliner, and many things can''t hide the thief."


    "In fact, from the son''s point of view, the emperor summoned Zhang Xiu, and so many people participated. The thief Cao must know that you are trying to seize the manufacturing technology of rice paper. "


    "Why the thief Cao didn''t interfere is that he had to let it go."


    Fu De said in a deep voice: "father, once the manufacturing technology of rice paper falls into the hands of Cao thief. His daily income, without lack of money, is extremely terrible. Cao thief can constantly recruit troops, and his strength grows very fast. Therefore, I do not agree with Zhang Xiu''s papermaking. In today''s situation, if we want to deal with Cao thieves, we can only let Zhang Xiu fight outside. "


    He has his own views on the affairs of the imperial court.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    I feel a little shortness of breath when I''m finished.


    Son of a bitch!


    The devil!


    How did he give birth to such a rebellious son after Fu Wan? He was aiming at him everywhere.


    Fu Wan said: "Fu De, you are not a dutiful son. If it goes on like this, my family will be destroyed in your hands. "


    Fu De said: "if the Fu family survives, I would rather the Fu family be destroyed earlier. My family is respected by the emperor. However, the father did not want to serve the emperor, did not want to set things right, just blindly aggrieved. My son can''t live such a life. "


    When I heard this, I was out of breath.


    In the hall, he was humiliated and bullied by Zhang Xiu, and was ordered by the little emperor to apologize to Zhang Xiu.


    He was full of resentment.


    When I got home, I was looked down upon by my son and taught by him.


    He''s full of anger.


    Fu Wan said coldly, "if I don''t teach you a lesson, I really don''t dare to deal with you. From now on, you are not allowed to leave the residence, or I will break your legs. "


    "If you don''t leave, you won''t leave. Anyway, there''s nothing wrong with your son recently," Ford said


    Fu Wan said: "I will not let Zhang Xiu go. If I don''t kill Zhang Xiu, I will never give up. He Zhang Xiu is self righteous and dares to come to Xudu alone. He is really impatient. I''ll send someone to kill him and plant it on Cao Cao to see how the thief will deal with it. "Fu De said: "Zhang Xiu has excellent martial arts and is not easy to deal with."


    Fu Wan snorted and said, "it''s not easy to assassinate in Laifu inn. But outside Xudu, there is a wide open space. I''d like to see how Zhang Xiu can avoid it? "


    After hearing this, Fu De frowned and said, "father, if you kill Zhang Xiu, you are the guilty Minister of the country. Now, we need Zhang Xiu to attack Cao Cao. "


    Fu Wan sneered: "even if Zhang Xiu promised to attack Cao Cao, so what? Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo are the same, but if Zhang Xiu controls the government, can you guarantee that there is a difference between Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao? Can you guarantee that Zhang Xiu can be clamped down? "


    Vold said, "how do you know if you don''t try? Even if it is to seek the skin of a tiger, even if it is to get a chestnut from the fire, it is better than the present day. My son is fed up with these days. The emperor is not the emperor, the minister is not the minister, the code of ethics is in chaos, and the government is out of order. It should be changed. "


    Fu Wan said: "unfortunately, you can''t see it."


    "Somebody


    He gave a loud order.


    In an instant, the attendant came in and directly dragged Ford out.


    "Stop it


    "Dad, you''re so disappointing," said Ford. For his own sake, in the main hall, he insisted on seizing Zhang Xiu''s rice paper manufacturing technology. For your anger, I want to kill Zhang Xiu. Father, you are so disappointing. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    "Son of a bitch!"


    "Who gave you the courage to talk to me like this?"


    "Drag it down, drag it down for me!"


    Fu Wan yelled abuse, and his face was very angry.


    With a flick of his sleeve, he turned and left. The squire didn''t dare to take Fude, so he had to follow suit. They''re going to carry out voodoo''s orders and keep voodoo in the yard.


    There was only one person left in the study.


    His chest, ups and downs.


    His breath was very short.


    At this moment, Fu Wan''s idea of killing Zhang Xiu was extremely firm.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, he was denounced by the little emperor; because of Zhang Xiu, their father and son turned against each other. All this is because of Zhang Xiu. If it were not for Zhang Xiu, there would not be all this.


    If he doesn''t kill Zhang Xiu, it''s hard to get rid of the hatred in his heart.


    "I will kill you!"


    Fu eyes cold Su, the heart has been rapid calculation, soon have a decision.


    Zhang Xiu wants to kill him.

 Chapter 487

    Sikong mansion, in the study.


    When Cao Cao was dealing with the government affairs, Guo Jia rushed in.


    With a relaxed face, Guo Jia reported: "Lord, it is reported from the palace that the emperor''s attempt to seize the manufacturing process of rice paper failed. On the contrary, the emperor and Zhang Xiu reached another agreement, Zhang Xiu back to Chang''an, to attack you. This is the previous agreement between Zhang Xiu and Fude. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Cao Cao couldn''t help laughing when he heard the speech.


    Zhang Xiu wants to attack Xu Du.


    What a joke.


    After laughing, Cao Cao asked, "do you believe in fengxiao


    "I believe it."


    Guo Jia also raised a look of sarcasm, said: "the little emperor is too simple, not only believe, but also ordered to offend Zhang Xiu Fu Wan, apologized to Zhang Xiu."


    "The most shocking thing that Kong Mou opposed was the technology of Xuanrong paper."


    "Today''s fight in the palace is really wonderful."


    "Zhang Xiu, in particular, is really overbearing. In the main hall, Zhong Ji spoke rudely to Zhang Xiu. Then, in front of everyone, Zhang Xiu pulls up the seed collection and slaps in the face, regardless of the little emperor''s opinion. "


    Guo Jia said with emotion: "this time, I lost face."


    Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu is a brave boy. He is overbearing and decisive. If you were my official, you could not do what he did. Only then can he be so indifferent. "


    Guo Jia said: "the Lord has the Lord''s good, Zhang Xiu has Zhang Xiu''s strong points, each has his own strong points."


    Cao Cao said, "fengxiao can speak."


    Guo Jia said: "my lord knows it. I don''t like to tell lies


    Cao Cao nodded in agreement.


    Guo Jia has a broad disposition and does not stick to one pattern. Although in the eyes of many people under Cao Cao, Guo Jia did his own way and did not pay attention to etiquette, for Cao Cao, he liked Guo Jia like this.


    Guo Jia said: "there''s another thing. After apologizing to Zhang Xiu, he went back to his house and was so angry that he fell several bottles one after another. In addition, Voldemort and Voldemort clashed and imprisoned Voldemort. "


    Cao Cao said: "Fu Wan has a good family background and married a Royal Princess. As a matter of fact, he is timid and timid, bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and cherishing himself in doing things. Such a person, regardless of his family and identity, is a complete villain. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Cao Cao said: "according to Fu Wan''s nature, if you are humiliated like this, you are likely to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Guo Jia nodded in agreement and said, "my Lord is right. I think I need to be careful about this. Once Zhang Xiu has an accident in Yanzhou, it is the Lord''s responsibility. "


    "Today''s Little Emperors trust and value Zhang Xiu, but this is just a little emperor."


    "What if someone wants to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    "I even speculated that Fu Wan might send someone to assassinate Zhang Xiu. The reason is very simple. After Zhang Xiu was assassinated, first of all, we failed to protect her. Because Zhang Xiu had an accident in Xudu, he had to be responsible for it. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord, this is a humble consideration."


    Cao Cao said, "what fengxiao said is true."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, an attendant entered and reported: "Sikong, Zhang Xiu asked to see you."


    "Please go to the hall!"


    Cao Cao gave an order.


    "Here it is


    After the soldiers retired, Cao Cao did not delay, simply changed his clothes and took Guo Jia to the hall. When Cao Cao just entered the hall, Zhang Xiu also took Wang Yue to enter.


    There was a faint smile on Zhang Xiu''s face. She bowed to Cao Cao and said, "Sikong, I''m here to say goodbye to him. I''ve told the emperor about my duty. It''s time to leave. "


    Cao Cao said with a smile, "won''t my son-in-law stay for two more days? When you come to Xudu, I''m very busy, and I haven''t found the time to take care of you. I''m really ashamed of not being able to treat you well. "


    "It''s already very good," Zhang said


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "when she came, jie''er once said that she had been in Chang''an all the time and could not be filial at Sikong''s knees. I hope he will have a chance to be filial at Sikong''s knees in his new year. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed and said, "it''s actually easy. That''s what I and my son-in-law mentioned. The son-in-law did not have to return to Chang''an to serve in the DPRK. In this way, your family will be in Xudu, and jie''er will be filial to me. Isn''t it beautiful to have a family and a beautiful family. I''ll be the commander in chief, and you''ll be the Taiwei. It''s as easy as sweeping the whole world with one man and one martial arts. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Sikong''s kindness lies in my heart. In my opinion, I''ll send someone to take Sikong to Chang''an to let jie''er be filial at your knees. After all, Xudu is a little small. Chang''an used to be an ancient capital. It''s good to stay in Chang''an. "


    In the words, we have already brought the machine forward.


    Cao Cao asked Zhang Xiu to stay in Xudu, while Zhang Xiu responded by asking Cao Cao to go to Chang''an.


    Cao Cao laughed and said, "my son-in-law is really a strong man. Just don''t talk about it. Now there''s one thing I want my son-in-law to know. "Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Cao Cao replied, "when you''ve finished lying in the main hall and you scold me, my heart is full of anger. After he left the palace, he said that he would make you regret it. If you leave Xudu, you may be targeted by Fuwan. "


    "I understand," said Zhang Xiu


    To Fu Wan such person, Zhang Xiu is despise.


    Liu Xie is an out and out coward who puts interests first. It''s not much different after Fu. It''s a villain.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t like such a person.


    Cao Cao once again said, "son-in-law, do you need me to send someone to protect you from leaving?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Sikong is willing to send someone to protect him. He is the best. But if Fu Wan really wants to deal with me, then this is the chance for Sikong to clean up Fu Wan. It''s very difficult to deal with the problem of slipping without slipping. Now, it is Sikong''s opportunity. It''s not so much to send someone to protect me as to clean up. "


    When Guo Jia heard this, his eyes lit up.


    Similarly, Cao Cao also understood Zhang Xiu''s intention and solemnly said: "the words of the virtuous son-in-law remind me. This time, I''ll take advantage of the situation and finish my calculation. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "that''s true, but do you need me to come up with a plan?"


    The strategy to deal with Fuwan is actually very simple.


    Zhang Xiu had a plan in her mind.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "no, it''s not difficult to deal with the end of Fu. Good son-in-law and rest assured to leave, the next thing, to deal with me. But when are you going to leave? "


    "Early tomorrow morning!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to waste time in Xudu. After all, Yuan Shao is in the north. Zhang Xiu at least to resist the attack of Yuan Shao, can be regarded as a real foothold.


    If you can''t stop Yuan Shao''s attack, the foundation of Zhang Xiu may be destroyed.


    Go back early.


    Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao said some words, are not nutritious compliments, and then got up to leave.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed, looked at Guo Jia and said: "fengxiao, Zhang Xiu will leave early tomorrow morning. According to my judgment, if she leaves, it will be after Zhang Xiu leaves Xudu city."


    "Tomorrow morning, you will mobilize people and secretly follow Zhang Xiu."


    "As long as those who have fallen are killed, they will be captured. There must be a living man. He never leaves a handle when he finishes his work. With a living mouth, we can finish it. "


    In Cao Cao''s eyes, a fierce color flashed.


    "I understand


    Guo Jia nodded with a smile, very calm.


    It doesn''t take a lot of brain to deal with a mere ambush.

 Chapter 488

    Back at the inn, Zhang Xiu began to arrange to leave. When she left Xudu, it was not only Zhang Xiu who wanted to leave, but also famous scholars like Yang Biao and Kong Rong.


    According to Cao Cao''s warning, Fu Wan is likely to deal with him.


    In such a premise, Zhang Xiu left Xudu, is likely to be ambushed. Once Yang Biao, Kong Rong and others are here, they will become Zhang Xiu''s burden and burden, adding variables to the fighting.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu calls Shi a to contact Yang Biao and Kong Rong and take them on their way alone.


    This will ensure their safety.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu also began to arrange things out of the city.


    People respect me and I respect people.


    If people kill me, I kill too.


    Zhang Xiu is not at all lax about the possibility of being ambushed and assassinated. If Fu Wan wants to kill him, then he will also fight back. Zhang Xiu won''t stop anyone who wants to kill him.


    Order after order, arrange quickly.


    Zhang Xiu arranged everything in order to have a little leisure.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door, from outside the room.


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The door creaked, but Deng Zhan entered quickly and reported: "Lord, Sima Fang has come to the inn to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, very unexpected.


    This time to Xudu, Zhang Xiu went to visit Yang Biao alone, but did not visit Sima Fang. Although Sima Fang was a famous scholar in the imperial court, in fact, his official position was not so prominent as that of Yang Biao.


    His official position is much smaller than that of Zhang Xiu, so when Zhang Xiu first arrived in Xudu, he had a simple chat with Sima Fang. During the banquet held by the emperor, Zhang Xiu had a few words with Sima Fang.


    There is nothing else.


    Unexpectedly, Sima Fang took the initiative to come to Laifu inn.


    Deng Zhan went to inform him that soon Sima was wearing a black robe and a cloak. He entered the room, took off his cloak with snowflakes, handed it to Deng Zhan, and strode in.


    In the room, warm as spring.


    Anthracite gives off a trace of heat, dispelling the chill.


    Sima Fang saluted and said, "I''m going to see General Zhang."


    Zhang xiudao said, "sit down, Sima Gong."


    After taking his seat, Sima Fang said, "I got a letter from Sima Lang, the son of dog. I learned that general Zhang valued Sima Lang and entrusted him with an important task. Besides, the dog Sima Yi followed General Zhang. The rest of the children all went to live in Chang''an. General Zhang''s respect for Sima''s family is greatly appreciated by Sima Fang. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Sima Gong is polite. Boda is outstanding. He is more than enough to govern a county. He served as the prefect of Hongnong county. I can rest assured. Zhong Da was a quick thinker. Although he was young, he was also a hero. The Sima family is full of talents. "


    Sima Fang said, "General Zhang has been praised falsely."


    After a pause, Sima Fang said: "I have resigned from the imperial court. I have obtained permission. I don''t know. Is general Zhang willing to accept it? "


    "Seriously?"


    Zhang Xiu asked in surprise.


    Sima Fang said: "nature is true. Now I''m a mediator."


    For Sima Fang, his eldest son and second son are under the command of Zhang Xiu, and they have been put in high position. Sima Fang is very happy. As long as Sima Fu and others are equally talented, they can be reused in the future.


    Sima Fang himself did not attach much importance to fame and wealth, and he had no greed for officialdom. He has no power in the court, so he doesn''t want to be a burden to his son after considering his son''s situation.


    So he resigned.


    Of course, Sima Fang''s decision to resign was made only after he met Zhang Xiu.


    In recent days, every move of Zhang Xiu in Chang''an and her performance have surprised Sima Fang. Sima Fang thinks that Zhang Xiu can become a great tool and is a real hero.


    He is willing to make way for his son.


    In addition, the little emperor first abandoned Kong Rong, then abandoned Fu Wan, and constantly abandoned officials for the sake of interests. Sima Fang didn''t like his selfishness.


    Therefore, he chose to resign.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart. After considering the arrangement for Sima Fang, she said, "Sima Gong is willing to come under my command. I welcome him to the top. I''m afraid the official position of Sima Gong can''t compare with that of Ling Gongzi. "


    After all, Sima Lang is a prefect.


    The six officials under Zhang Xiu''s command, as well as the newly established Inspectorate, have already made arrangements. The power of these people is stronger than that of the local powerful Taishou.


    But the rest are much worse.


    Under such circumstances, even if Sima Fang surrendered, he could not get the core official position.


    Sima Fang said, "I''m going to submit to General Zhang, not to be an official. My eldest son and second son are both officials under general Zhang, so I will not become an official. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, some accident.


    Sima Fang continued: "I once ran into Yang Biao and Yang Gong. He said that general Zhang asked him to go to Chang''an to set up an academy and preach. I know a little bit about it. I''m willing to teach and educate in academies. "Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Sima Gong is willing to enter the Academy. It can''t be better. Today''s academies are short of such famous scholars as Sima Gong. If Sima Gong could invite more famous scholars, it would be great. "


    Sima Fang said, "I''ll do my best."


    This morning, Sima Fang went to visit Yang Biao and heard what Yang Biao mentioned.


    Therefore, Sima fang had an idea.


    Sima Fang was willing to work in the academy and study knowledge.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said: "after the establishment of the Academy, Yang Gong was the president of the Academy, responsible for all matters of the Academy. At that time, Sima Gong will act as the vice president to assist Yang Gong in dealing with various issues of the Academy. "


    "There are no academies in Chang''an, so we should start all over again."


    "There are a lot of things going on here."


    "So since Sima Gong is the vice president, he can start to think about things. When you and Yang Gong arrive in Chang''an, we can start the arrangement of the Academy earlier. "


    "Don''t worry about money and manpower."


    "What you have to consider is the planning of the academy and how to teach and educate people," Zhang said


    "I see!"


    Sima Fang was so happy that he didn''t expect to be the vice president. As Yang Biao''s deputy, he was not at all unconvinced. Yang Biao is a famous scholar, a great master of learning, and a leader among the old ministers.


    There is nothing unconvinced about such a person as the dean of an academy.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu continued: "Sima Gong, the imperial court once had Taixue, but with the outbreak of war, the imperial court''s Taixue has been abandoned. After all, the teaching in Taixue is not clear enough. To establish the Academy, I want to make a change to the Academy. "


    Sima Fang said, "what change?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "after the establishment of academies, we should establish a hierarchy from low to high."


    "For example, the beginning of the enlightenment."


    "The period of enlightenment can be two to three years."


    "After the enlightenment, he entered the outer courtyard of the Academy. This stage is from the age of 67 to the age of 123. If they are academically outstanding, they will study in the inner courtyard. "


    "The age of the inner courtyard is between the ages of twelve and thirteen and seventeen and eighteen."


    Zhang Xiu said with great eloquence: "when a scholar finishes his studies in the inner courtyard, he can take part in the examination and have the opportunity to become an official."


    Zhang Xiu made a plan for the Academy. He didn''t copy the structure of primary school, junior high school, senior high school and even university, because this era can''t reach the detailed division of later generations.


    Make a general arrangement. After everything is on the right track, adjust and improve it a little bit. After Zhang Xiu said that, she also talked about the structure and arrangement of some academies.


    Sima Fang, listen and remember carefully.


    At the moment, his heart is even more shocked. He had got his son''s letter for a long time, and knew that Zhang Xiu had both literary and military skills, and was extremely wise. But now, seeing Zhang Xiu''s exposition of the Academy, I was even more surprised.


    There is no empty man under the fame!


    Zhang Xiu is really good.


    Sima Fang listened carefully and asked questions from time to time to discuss with Zhang Xiu. As time went by, an hour and a half passed. After the discussion, Sima Fang got up and left.


    He wanted to go back to his residence and sort out Zhang Xiu''s words for easy digestion and absorption.

 Chapter 489

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early, and after breakfast, Shi a, Deng Zhan and Wang Yue are ready. This time, Zhang Xiu left Xudu, did not take a carriage, chose to ride on horseback.


    It''s good for fighting.


    Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan leave with the royal guards, while Shi a goes to the other side. Shi A''s task is to take Yang Biao, Kong Rong, Sima Fang and others to leave to avoid danger.


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves clattered on the street.


    There are more than ten people in Zhang Xiu''s party.


    Everyone is wearing a cloak, which can cover the top of his head and withstand the wind and snow. They set out from Laifu Inn and soon went out of Xudu west gate to the west of Xuxian county.


    January weather, still heavy snow.


    The official road outside the city is covered with snow.


    After Zhang Xiu and his party went out of the city, although the speed was fast, in fact, it was also the speed after slowing down.


    From the beginning of the city, along the way there are six miles of road, all the way flat.


    Further out, there''s an area full of trees. However, in today''s woods, there are countless ice debris. It''s cold and not suitable for ambush, so Zhang Xiu doesn''t worry about being ambushed in the woods.


    If you want to kill him after Fu Wan, you may arrange someone to block him in the face.


    After walking nearly ten miles, they passed the forest area. All of a sudden, there is a royal guard sentinel back in front.


    This is Wang Yue''s sentry.


    The sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "general, it''s three miles in front of us. There were a hundred men standing in the way, twenty cavalry and eighty infantry. Everyone, in armor. "


    Zhang xiudao: "does the other side have crossbows?"


    The sentry shook his head and replied, "there is no bow and crossbow, but the soldiers of the other side are equipped with bows and arrows, carrying an arrow bag."


    Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    Bow and arrow are different from crossbow. Bow and arrow have a long range, but their lethality is not enough and they are easy to resist.


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "who is the leader?"


    "It''s the end of the fall," the sentinel said


    "It''s over!"


    Zhang Xiu raised a cold look at the corner of her mouth and said, "I''ve been humiliated after I''ve fallen. I''m resentful. I really want to kill you. As the father-in-law of the dynasty, he personally led his troops to kill me. "


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, the other side has bows and arrows, but we only have more than ten cavalry. As soon as we get close to the troops that have been laid down, I''m afraid we''ll be shot. "


    "It''s not difficult," Zhang said


    Wang Yue said: "how to do it?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "it''s snowy all over the sky, the sight is not very good, and when the wind blows, the sight and strength of the bow and arrow will be weakened a lot. As soon as we reached a hundred feet away, we scattered and killed. Just over a hundred people dare to ambush me. It''s too self righteous to have suffered this time. "


    Today, with Zhang Xiu''s martial arts skills, he only brought more than 100 people after Fu Wan. Even if there were two or three hundred more, he would not be afraid.


    Of course, it takes time for Zhang Xiu to kill one by one. However, what Fu Wan brings can never be the regular army in the army, they are all private soldiers of the Fu family, or they are all dead soldiers of the Fu family,


    they are all miscellaneous soldiers,


    once they kill each other, they are enough to defeat each other.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    However, Wang Yue still frowned and said, "my Lord, I''m afraid it''s dangerous to fight in person. I suggest that we rush into the crowd first. Then, the Lord mentioned shooting again. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s a small matter. Why do you rush first? Wang Yue, do you have no confidence in me? "


    Wang Yue said, "I admire your master''s martial arts. However, my Lord is a man of thousands of gold, and his status is noble. In case of any injury, how can I tell the officials of Chang''an? "


    Wang Yue admired Zhang Xiu''s martial arts.


    If he and Zhang Xiu compare swords and fight under the horse, Wang Yue asks himself that he is sure to win.


    But if you fight on horseback, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Even if he and Zhang Xiu fight unarmed, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Because Wang Yue''s martial arts are mainly based on the sword. Without the sword, his martial arts will lose 30% or 40%.


    Zhang Xiu was determined in her heart. She patted on the horse''s back and said, "go on, keep going!"


    The party went on.


    The distance between Fuwan and Fuwan is getting closer and closer.


    At this moment, somewhere in front of the official road.


    Fu Wan, wearing armor and an iron helmet, rode on a horse, looked up at the front and waited quietly. He gets sentinel report, Zhang Xiu to his direction.


    Fu Wan''s eyes are full of killing intention.


    He is going to kill Zhang Xiu.


    He wants to make Zhang Xiu regret.


    If it were not for Zhang Xiu, he would not be reprimanded by the little emperor, and would not be ridiculed by the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty; if it was not for Zhang Xiu, he would not turn against Fude and his son, and would not be ridiculed by his son.Fu Wan thinks that Zhang Xiu is responsible for all this.


    "Da! Dada


    Suddenly, Fuwan heard the sound of horse''s hooves in the distance. He was excited and looked forward. Where he could see, he saw a figure moving rapidly in the distance.


    Here we go!


    Here comes Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Fu Wan''s eyes were full of hope, and he gave a loud order: "Archer, prepare!"


    As the order was given, the family soldiers around him took out their longbows. All the private soldiers held bows in their left hand, twisted bows and arrows in their right hand, put them on the bowstring and aimed at the front.


    Now it''s freezing. I put my hand in the air. The cold air strikes me, which makes my fingers freezing quickly. My hand holding the bow and arrow shivering.


    Cold!


    It''s too cold.


    The distance is getting closer.


    When Fu Wan clearly saw Zhang Xiu and his party and saw the front of Zhang Xiu, he was extremely excited. The distance between the two sides was shortened rapidly, and within a short time, it was shortened to a hundred steps.


    Fu Wangang was about to give an order for his soldiers to shoot arrows, but his eyes shrank.


    Zhang Xiu''s people scattered.


    The small number of more than ten people scattered around, and no longer gathered on the vast land.


    Then, start getting closer to the end of the fall.


    "Well, you think you''re right!"


    Fu Wan''s eyes are full of Mori Leng''s killing intention. He didn''t think that Zhang Xiu''s people were all scattered, which would have any effect. Because these people may escape the bow and arrow after they disperse.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than 50 steps, Fu Wan ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    When the private soldiers got the order to subdue, they were ready to fight. However, they had been holding the arrow shaft, hands in the air, cold numb. At this time, the frozen hands are inflexible and inconvenient.


    Hand reluctantly released the shaft, although the bow and arrow out of the string, the speed is also fast, but the direction is crooked.


    When the archer was ready to twist his bow again, his hands were numb. Although I picked up the bow and put it on the bowstring, when I tried to pull the bow, I couldn''t keep up with my previous strength.


    "Whew! Whew


    A bow and arrow shot, in the air across, but less through the force.


    Zhang Xiu galloped forward quickly. When he saw the bow and arrow, the overlord''s gun was lifted and flashed. The shadow of a gun was cut down in the air. With a bang, the overlord''s gun smashed the bow and arrow.


    Zhang Xiu carrying the overlord gun, fast forward, the speed is faster and faster.


    The distance is getting closer.


    Although there are many bows and arrows coming, the overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is constantly waving. It''s very close to the body.


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to ten steps, Zhang Xiu was still intact and unaffected.


    "Kill


    Fu Wan sees Zhang Xiu approaching and gives an order.


    In an instant, all the cavalry under his command killed Zhang Xiu in the same direction.

 Chapter 490

    More than 20 private cavalry of Fu family, under the heavy snow, carrying swords, launched a sprint. After the cavalry rushed out, he ordered his archers to stop shooting and let all archers rush forward with their swords.


    One is to besiege Zhang Xiu, the other is to solve the problem of Zhang Xiu''s escort.


    Fu finished the arrangement, a look at the play, mouth with a faint smile.


    He will win this battle!


    Fu Wan was surrounded by more than 100 people, but Zhang Xiu was only surrounded by more than 10 people. Such a gap, let Fu Wan have enough confidence. Zhang Xiu''s horse is very fast. In a twinkling of an eye, it is less than two feet away from the cavalry.


    The overlord gun revolves in the air. It has enough power. In an instant, it sweeps out directly.


    "Hoo


    The overlord gun passed through the air and hit three cavalry in front of him.


    "Bang! Bang


    The barrel of the gun hit the chests of the three cavalry men. In a flash, they were struck by lightning. They screamed in their mouths, and their strong bodies flew out of the room.


    The three cavalry were hit on the chest, their ribs were broken, they vomited blood in their mouths, and their faces were full of pain.


    Zhang Xiu does not go to see the knocked down soldiers, Overlord gun again.


    The gun is as fast as a shooting star.


    Just listen to the bang bang sound, one by one oncoming cavalry, all were hit to fly. In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu beat more than 20 cavalry, leaving only five or six cavalry.


    The rest of the cavalry had a look of fear on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu is so strong!


    When they fight with Zhang Xiu, they can''t even touch a hair of Zhang Xiu''s sweat. If they kill Zhang Xiu, they''re looking for death.


    No one dares to go up again.


    But Zhang Xiu kept shaking her horse''s reins. She rushed out from her crotch and killed the rest of the cavalry again. But as soon as Zhang Xiu was killed, these cavalry did not dare to fight head-on, and they flew away.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Fu wan not far away.


    He drove his horse towards Fuwan.


    At this moment, Fu Wan''s face changed greatly, and his elegant face showed a look of astonishment. It never occurred to him that the cavalry he relied on was defeated, which was beyond his expectation.


    "Come on, go up and kill Zhang Xiu."


    "Kill Zhang Xiu."


    Fu Wan orders out loud, and sends his infantry forward to besiege Zhang Xiu. The private soldiers of each family were slaves of the Fu family. They did not dare to disobey Fu Wan''s orders and rushed to Zhang Xiu.


    In the face of the besieged cavalry, Zhang Xiu kept chasing the wind and sprinting back and forth. His hand is as fast as lightning, where the overlord''s gun passes, it brings out a lot of blood.


    One by one, private soldiers were killed.


    Even if there is a soldier''s intention to stop, it can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    On the other hand, Wang Yue and others are the same. Wang Yue and Deng Zhan lead the royal guards to sprint into the crowd and keep sprinting. One by one, they cut off the ambush of the Fu family.


    It''s a one-sided killing.


    Even if there were many families, they could not stop the killing of more than ten people.


    This scene, fall in the eyes of Fu Wan, Fu Wan a heart suddenly sink down.


    How is that possible?


    He took more than a hundred people with him. It should be easy for him to kill Zhang Xiu. But unexpectedly, with more than ten people, Zhang Xiu killed others, and the soldiers under her command were totally unstoppable.


    Damn it!


    After lying down in the heart, endless anger comes out. He stands on horseback, roars loudly, let his private soldiers come forward to kill Zhang Xiu. As long as you kill Zhang Xiu, everything is not a problem.


    It''s a pity that I''ll be disappointed in a moment. The private soldiers he sent were killed one after another, and more and more people were killed and injured.


    Fu Wan looks in the eye, in the heart drops blood.


    A heart is sinking down.


    No!


    Suddenly, there was a sense of horror in Fu Wan''s heart. He looked at it carefully. There were less than 30 people under his command. In this short time, more than half of the casualties have been killed. In a little while, I''m afraid it will be completely wiped out.


    Zhang Xiu is so ferocious that if she stays here, it''s not like sheep entering tiger''s mouth. Fu Wan felt nervous, shook the reins, rode away quickly, and rushed to Xu Du''s direction.


    At the end of the evacuation, Zhang Xiu immediately found out. He waved his overlord''s gun and killed the private soldier in front of him. He kicked the horse in the stomach and chased the wind in his crotch. Then he went to the direction of Fu Wan.


    The difference between the two is no more than 30 steps.


    When Zhang Xiu pursues, she puts away the overlord gun, takes out the big bow at her waist, takes out the bow and arrow, and quickly puts it on the bow string.


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu drank low and quickly released her hand. She only heard the hum and the vibration of the bow and arrow.


    The bow and arrow came out immediately.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow pierced the air, with a sharp howling sound, and in a twinkling of an eye, it reached Fu Wan''s back.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp arrow pierces into the horse''s buttocks. It was Herod''s neighing, his neighing, his shivering.Originally, the road was slippery. After the war horse was out of control, he kept struggling and his riding skills were flat. Under the shaking of the war horse, he could not stand on the horse''s back and was thrown out directly.


    "Ah


    The scream came from the wind and snow.


    Fu Wan thin body, in the air across, only listen to a bang, Fu Wan body fell to the ground. Although he doesn''t know martial arts, after landing, he instinctively wants to get up, but he finds that his bones seem to fall apart.


    The whole person, extremely uncomfortable.


    "Herod


    All of a sudden, a war horse stopped before he finished lying down. As Zhang Xiu pursues the wind, Herod snorts. Zhang Xiuli was on the horse''s back. She pointed the overlord gun in her hand, and her eyes were sharp and murderous.


    Gudong!


    Fu Wan was pointed at by the overlord gun and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    There was a touch of fear in his eyes.


    However, Fu Wan choked his neck and said in a loud voice: "it''s a pity that Zhang Xiu didn''t kill you. I am the father-in-law of the Han Dynasty and the father of the empress. If you dare to kill me, the whole world will kill you


    "Joke!"


    With a cold smile, Zhang Xiu said, "after a little bit of Fu, do you have any contribution to the country?"


    "No!"


    "Do you have any contribution to the people of the world?"


    "No!"


    "It''s fantastic for a man like you to kill you and be killed by the whole world."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s more, the little emperor is in urgent need of my help. He asked for my help. Originally, the little emperor was snobbish. In order to let me send troops from Chang''an, he directly ordered you to apologize to me. Now, you come to kill me, but I kill you. Do you think the little emperor will avenge you? "


    Fu Wan''s face, cold down.


    There was a look of panic in his eyes.


    After that, Zhang Xiu said, "if you bite me, I will be killed. Cao Cao, I will take the opportunity to deal with you. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "speaking of Cao Cao, he controls the imperial court and is constrained by you, Dong Cheng, Yang Biao and others. He wants me to kill you. You''re dead. There''s one less emperor in the court. The flag under the emperor''s command has reached another pole. "


    Fu end Eye Bead son turns, again way: "but, Cao Cao can plant to you."


    "Planting?"


    Zhang xiuxiao said, "what are you planting? I killed you. You should be killed by me after you fall down. No matter you are the father-in-law or the king of heaven, I dare to kill you as long as it''s against me. "


    "What can I do to kill you?"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are overbearing and cruel. He slowly raised the overlord gun in his hand and said: "after Fu Wan, remember next life, don''t make the same mistake again. Some people, you can''t stir up! "


    "No, don''t kill me!"


    "I''m wrong!"


    Fu finished a see Zhang Xiu want to move the real case, is flustered, mouth loud beg for mercy. He backed back with his hands on his back and said, "General Zhang, spare my life. I have eyes and don''t know Taishan. I''m willing to pay for it. Just let me go. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are cold, and the overlord''s gun is thrust forward.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun easily penetrates the heart of Fuwan. When the point of the gun is stirred, it breaks the heart of Fuwan.


    Severe pain comes from the heart.


    When he looks at Zhang Xiu, he has hatred, regret and fear in his eyes. At this moment, I regret it, but it''s too late.


    Endless darkness enveloped his consciousness, like a surging wave, to devour him completely.


    Endless cold, spread all over the body.


    After lying down, his head deviated, he lost consciousness and his body fell into a pool of blood.


    Zhang Xiu killed Fu Wan and turned her eyes around. Under the slaughter of the royal guards, the private soldiers of the Fu family are less than ten. These people start to run around, but they die.


    In a short time, everyone was killed.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, all the assassins have been killed and no one has escaped."


    "Let''s go, hurry up


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of the body on the ground, and immediately ordered to leave. Cao Cao once reminded Zhang Xiu that he expected to ambush Zhang Xiu after the ambush, so Cao Cao must arrange people to hang behind.


    Sure enough, not long after Zhang Xiu and his party left, a group of cavalry galloped along the official road.


    The leader is Li Dian.


    At the command of Cao Cao, he led his troops to Zhang Xiu. What he wants to do is wait for Zhang Xiu and Fu to finish the confrontation, and once Zhang Xiu is in trouble, he can do it again. But when Li Dian arrived, he only saw a corpse on the ground.


    Some bodies were killed with one sword.


    Some bodies were stabbed to death.


    One by one, the death was miserable.


    When Li Dian saw Fu Wan''s body, he made a quick investigation and saw the hole in Fu Wan''s chest. Li Dian frowned.


    Fu Wan died, which was beyond his expectation.


    Li Dian didn''t say anything more. He told the soldiers to restrain the body and take a group of people to Xu du to withdraw.

 Chapter 491

    After pondering in her heart, Zhang Xiu replied, "teacher, you write back to Kuai Liang. It is expected that in the second half of this year, I will move my troops south to capture Jingzhou. For the time being, let them not worry. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "can''t it be after spring?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "last year''s continuous fighting, especially at the end of the year, I fought with Yuan Shao''s army in Hanoi County, defeated more than 40000 Yuan Shao''s troops, killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and recruited Tian Feng and Zhang Ya."


    "There is a deep hatred between Yuan Shao and me that cannot be resolved."


    "At the end of last year, Yuan Shao did not send troops because it was too cold to send troops. With Yuan Shao''s character, after the spring of this year, he will surely send troops to revenge. "


    "I still have a fight with Yuan Shao."


    Zhang Xiu said: "after defeating Yuan Shao, Guanzhong will be completely stabilized, and it will not be too late to go south to Jingzhou. Yuan Shao was the most powerful vassal in the north. After defeating Yuan Shao, it would be much easier to go south to capture Jingzhou. "


    "At that time, one south and one north will run through the whole world. Even if the front is extended, no one will dare to invade with my prestige. So it''s most appropriate to go south in the second half of the year. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "with the general trend of defeating Yuan Shao, we can make a difference."


    Pang Degong nodded and said: "Jiang Ping, your imperial court appointed Taiwei is not weak in controlling Guanzhong. But after all, Yuan Shao was the most powerful vassal, and he was extremely powerful. Could he resist the attack of his army? "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "teacher, don''t worry, Yuan Shao is nothing. Although Yuan Shao was strong, he was just trying to be strong for a while. The strength under my command is enough to resist Yuan Shao. What''s more, with rice paper as the backing, if there is no lack of money and food, there will be no worries. "


    Pound said: "I''m not good at fighting. You can arrange it."


    With Zhang Xiu, pound can be at ease.


    He and Huang Chengyan went north, on the one hand, for the children, on the other hand, for the grand plan of Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "teacher, how many disciples are there on Mount lumen?"


    "Less!"


    "After Shi Yuan and Kong Ming left, Cui Jun, Shi Tao and Meng Jian left one after another. Nowadays, there are not many people studying in the mountains. After all, I don''t have much busy time to go to preach


    Zhang xiudao said: "this time I went to Xudu and invited Yang Biao to Chang''an to set up academies in Chang''an and recruit scholars to impart knowledge. Are teachers and their father-in-law willing to teach in academies instead of officialdom and fame? "


    Pound Fair: "no problem, but have to wait until Jingzhou."


    Huang Chengyan said: "after Jingzhou was settled, we went north to Chang''an, so we didn''t have to worry about it."


    With a bright smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, after Jingzhou is stable, her father-in-law and teachers will come to the academy to teach together."


    "Yes!"


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan should go down at the same time.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open, but Wang Yue hurried in and stood with a bow.


    Seeing this, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan know that Zhang Xiu has official business to deal with. They don''t stay much, so they get up and leave. After they left, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "what happened?"


    Wang yuechen reported: "to my Lord, there are countless retired wounded soldiers outside the military camp. They are at the gate of the barracks for the reward when they leave the barracks. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes, suddenly sharp up, asked: "their pension and reward, has been deducted?"


    Wang Yue said: "according to the soldiers, the pensions for their injuries and retirements are paid in full. However, when they finally went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, they also made great contributions, which should be rewarded. This reward is nothing. So, there will be countless soldiers going to the barracks gate. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face cooled down.


    There has always been nothing trivial about military affairs.


    If the army is unstable, its combat effectiveness will be reduced. Without the army, Zhang Xiu could not stand in troubled times.


    It can be said that the army is the premise of everything.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "when it comes to making trouble, which army is it?"


    Wang Yue replied: "according to the investigation, whether it''s the conventional army, or the Langya camp or the flying bear army, it''s all involved. Huang Zhong is far away in Hanoi, and Gan Ning is still on the way to withdraw. "


    "In the barracks, there are only two generals, Zhang Yan and Chen Zhi. After getting the news, they have sent people to the Ministry of war to inquire about it. At the same time, they are also maintaining the situation and stabilizing the mood of the soldiers. "


    "For the time being, the Ministry of war has not yet received a clear reply."


    Wang Yue said, "is there something wrong with the army or the Ministry of war? The royal guards are still under investigation?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "how long does it take to investigate."


    Wang Yue said: "report back, the royal guards are investigating. One hour at most. After one hour, the royal guards will get the news. "Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll wait for an hour."


    It''s useless for Zhang Xiu to know what''s going on. Now go to stabilize the soldiers, but it''s not clear what the situation is. On the contrary, it''s not easy to deal with it. Only when we have a clear understanding of the situation can it be conducive to disposal.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Wang Yue stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu was sitting alone in her study, her face as deep as water. Originally, when I came back to Chang''an today, I was in a good mood to see my son. I didn''t expect that something would happen to the army.


    Especially when it comes to the reward for the retired wounded.


    Awards and pensions are different.


    Commendation is the reward for soldiers who fight and kill the enemy in the battlefield, and pension is the compensation for retired soldiers who are injured.


    He waited quietly.


    Little by little, less than half an hour later, Wang Yue returned in a hurry and reported: "my Lord, I have found out. The person involved in the case is Cui Jin, a meritorious official of the Ministry of war. "


    "Cui Jin is from Qingliu."


    "According to the investigation, Cui Jin always looks down on the soldiers in the army. When he saw that he had been given a pension, he withheld a reward for the wounded. He thought that the reward and the pension should have come together. A pension is a reward, so it is withheld. "


    Wang Yue said the results of the investigation.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were cold, and she said: "the laws and regulations of the army, where do you need him to comment. He has no right to change the arrangements in the army. Where does round get him to change. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "call Jia Xu, and then send someone to take Cui Jin and investigate Cui Jin''s affairs carefully for me. In my opinion, Cui Jin is likely to have a problem. He can''t despise soldiers and dare to deduct bonus from them. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded and went to arrange it immediately.


    After a while, Jia Xu came in in a hurry. He was the Minister of the Ministry of war and was in charge of all the affairs of the Ministry of war. Under Jia Xu''s administration, everything in the Ministry of war was in order and nothing went wrong.


    When Zhang Xiu sees Jia Xu, she immediately covers her face with a drink of abuse, which makes Jia Xu dizzy. Jia Xu really didn''t know what big mistake he had made, so that he was scolded by Zhang Xiu.


    After a lot of scolding, Zhang Xiu said something about Cui Jin, and scolded: "this is the headquarters you are in charge of. You have been in the army, and you know that the life of soldiers is not easy. Now, however, they are being punished. What''s your conscience? "


    Jia Xu seldom saw Zhang Xiu''s fierce anger.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu was angry.


    Jia Xu was aware of Cui Jin''s affairs and quickly explained: "report back to my Lord about Cui Jinke''s award deduction. At the beginning, he asked for instructions from his humble position. He thought that it was not appropriate to pay the bonus after the pension was issued. He thought that pension was a reward. "


    "For this reason, I reprimanded Cui Jin."


    "He was also ordered to follow the rules and give out all the bonuses that should be paid."


    "He said yes."


    Jia Xu hated Cui Jin in his heart and continued: "but I didn''t expect that Cui Jin would cheat the superior and cheat the inferior by withholding the rewards of all the soldiers. If you are not strict in your humble position, which leads to trouble, please punish me. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t scold Jia Xu any more. She waved her hand and said, "I know. You can step back."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu stepped back.


    He knew that his words just now were not enough to make Zhang Xiu believe. This kind of thing, not rely on human feelings, rely on the investigation, Zhang Xiu must investigate.


    However, Jia Xu has a clear conscience.


    Cui Jin actually issued a reprimand against Cui Yang Jin.


    This is what surprised Jia Xu.

 Chapter 492

    Shortly after Jia Xu left, Cui Jin was brought by the royal guards.


    Cui Jin stood in front of Zhang Xiu, holding his head high, with a stubborn look, without the slightest confession. Before he was arrested, he was asked about the reward for the wounded soldiers, and Cui Jin answered directly that he was.


    He did.


    Cui Jin doesn''t think that after the soldier''s mud leg is injured, he has to give any reward when he leaves the barracks.


    The pension is enough.


    In Cui Jin''s opinion, the pension of soldiers in the army is too high. Such a pension is enough to cover his salary for several years, which Cui Jin dislikes the most.


    There is a big difference between a scholar and a clay leg.


    This is Cui Jin''s view.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was as deep as water, and said: "Cui Jin, Jia Xu once reprimanded you and asked you to pay the reward in full. Why did you promise Jia Xu, but you didn''t give him a bonus? "


    Cui chin raised his head and replied, "I''ll tell Taiwei that Jia Shangshu is also dizzy. He thinks so much of these clay legs. It''s just a group of injured mud legs. They shouldn''t be rewarded so much. But Jia Shangshu ordered that I could not disobey it. I had to promise it in name, and then secretly withheld all the awards. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and she asked, "do you think they shouldn''t?"


    "Yes


    Cui Jin answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you are so capable, why don''t you write directly and just do such small movements. According to Ben, I''m afraid you''ve done something illegal? "


    "No!"


    Cui Jin replied again.


    When Zhang Xiu and Cui Jin speak, the royal guards enter and present the latest information to Wang Yue. After a quick look, Wang Yue submitted it to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, this is the latest information."


    Zhang Xiu took a look, and her face suddenly cooled down.


    Just now, Cui Jinxin swore that he looked down on the soldiers. But in the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu got the news that Cui Jin, with the reward money transferred from the Ministry of accounts to the Ministry of arms, embezzled it.


    All the money is spent on gambling.


    Countless money, all misappropriated, nothing left. It is precisely in this way that Cui Jin finds a reason not to give awards.


    With a wave of her hand, Zhang Xiu threw the letter she had just presented to Cui Jin and said, "the things with the heart of a wolf and the heart of a beast and the heart of a human face are misappropriating military expenses. Damn you


    Cui Jin picked up the letter on the ground and saw the news above, recording his gambling losses.


    At that time, Cui Jin turned pale.


    He lost money gambling, even if it is misappropriated, but also very careful.


    How could it leak?


    Cui Jin was flustered and immediately said, "Taiwei, I''m wrong in my humble position. Please forgive me!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    At the command, the soldiers entered quickly.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "take this Liao with me and follow me to the barracks."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers responded directly.


    The soldier escorts Cui Jin to go out. At this moment, Cui Jin''s legs are weak and weak. He has no strength. He is almost dragged away.


    Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue left the general''s house and went straight to the barracks.


    The weather in February, although still a little cold, but less snow. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the barracks, it was roughly estimated that there were at least 4000 wounded soldiers.


    Most people are lame without arms, and their bodies are seriously injured.


    These soldiers can not stay in the army, they can only leave the barracks.


    When they leave, they will be rewarded and given a pension.


    At the moment, the crowd was excited, and many soldiers were shouting. But even so, no one dares to suppress them, and no one dares to deal with these soldiers, who used to be soldiers in the army.


    Some of these people left injured. Under such a relationship, no one dares to act rashly. Chen and Zhang are trying to persuade and maintain order.


    They are also helpless.


    It involves a wide range of people. They tried their best to appease them, but it didn''t work.


    When Zhang Xiu appeared outside the barracks, some soldiers saw her, and the crowd cried out that general Zhang was coming. They didn''t know that Zhang Xiu was promoted to Taiwei, so they called him general Zhang.


    Everyone''s eyes, Qi brush brush to see Zhang Xiu.


    "Ask general Zhang to decide for us!"


    In the crowd, a leading general knelt down.


    "The general is in charge!"


    "The general is in charge!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cry went up into the sky, and countless soldiers cried out. One by one, instead of going forward to surround Zhang Xiu, they knelt down together.


    Thousands of people kneel down, and it''s a terrible scene.


    Zhang Xiu sees in the eye, killed Cui Jin''s mind to be heavier.


    Cui jinliao is a disaster.


    Zhang Xiu came to all the soldiers kneeling in front of the eyes swept, shouting gradually subsided.Zhang and Chen came out with a look of shame. No matter Zhang Yan or Chen Dao, it didn''t make the soldiers calm down. On the contrary, they were excited.


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "Lord, the end will be incompetent, failed to stabilize the situation."


    Chen Dao said: "the end will be the same."


    They kept shouting to stabilize the situation, but neither Chen Dao nor Zhang Yan succeeded.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and her eyes fell on all the soldiers. She said in a loud voice, "you used to be heroes on the battlefield and soldiers I''m proud of."


    "Ben will have found out what happened today. It''s not that the Ministry of accounts doesn''t allocate funds, it''s not that the military withholds them, and it''s not that they don''t give them to you. It''s Cui Jin, the meritorious Cao of the Ministry of war, who embezzles military funds to gamble in casinos and loses all his money. "


    Zhang Xiu said the situation directly.


    Brush!


    The faces of countless soldiers have changed greatly, and they are all worried. What should we do if we don''t have enough money to pay rewards?


    One by one, the eyes choose to bite.


    I wish I could swallow Cui Jin alive.


    At this moment, in the face of countless pairs of murderous eyes, Cui Jin''s legs are soft and can''t lift half of his strength. Facing the soldiers, he was completely afraid.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the soldiers'' comments and motioned them to be quiet again.


    After a while, the discussion disappeared. A pair of eyes fall on Zhang Xiu again. The eyes of the soldiers showed helplessness and longing.


    They are all disabled.


    Lack of arms and legs, at this time a sum of money for them, that is life-saving.


    The money came in exchange for life.


    Zhang xiulang said in a loud voice: "I will order the Ministry of the people''s Republic of China to allocate money for all of your rewards and redistribute them. You are heroes in the army. You''ve been on the battlefield and killed the enemy. You won''t be mistreated. "


    Boom!!


    Countless soldiers were excited when they heard it.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cui Jin embezzled money and refused to admit it. This man has committed a heinous crime, and the law is on the spot! "


    Brush!


    Cui Jin flustered God, loud voice way: "Zhang Taiwei, forgive me this time, I know wrong."


    He kept begging for mercy.


    Zhang Xiu is not moved. With a wave of her hand, a soldier drags Cui Jin to one side. In front of all the soldiers, he cut off Cui Jin''s head to make an example.


    The wounded soldiers who made trouble were pacified, and their hearts were calmed down.


    Everyone looked at Zhang Xiu and was grateful.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go back, tomorrow morning, come to the barracks to get money."


    The soldier responded and left happily.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldiers who had left, but she felt thoughtful in her eyes. He arranged for Wang Yue''s mediator to seal up Cui Jin''s home, and then gave an order to Xu Shu to allocate money.


    Everything was arranged properly, and Zhang Xiu went back to the general''s house.


    However, when he returned, the plaque on the general''s house had changed into Taiwei''s house.


    The news that Zhang Xiu has become a Taiwei has spread. No matter the six ministers under his command, or the rest of the civil servants and military generals, they all know that Zhang Xiu has become a Taiwei.


    They and Zhang Xiu are both prosperous and at a loss. The stronger Zhang Xiu is, the more promising they are.


    All of them are happy for Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 493

    When Zhang Xiu returned to the hall, she sent someone to call Jia Xu and reprimand him again, asking him to re select the officers of the Ministry of war. After Jia Xu left, Zhang Xiu called Xu Shu back.


    Xu Shu, as a minister of the Ministry of officials, though young, was at the top of the crowd. After all, Xu Shu was in charge of the Ministry of officials, which was responsible for the promotion of civil and military generals.


    Xu Shu was neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "my Lord, I don''t know what to order."


    Zhang xiudao said: "as for the retired soldiers after being injured, some of them have broken their arms, some of them have broken their legs, and some of them have been injured in other parts of their bodies, all of which are quite serious."


    "These people are just pensions and awards. Although they are a huge sum of money, they can be regarded as having no worries about food and clothing for a long time, but they are still not enough."


    "These people should be properly resettled."


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "I think about some, can find some things for them to do, let them not idle."


    Xu Shu frowned and said, "the retired soldiers are all the wounded. They are very seriously injured. I''m afraid it''s quite difficult to give them something to do. Lord, this is not easy to solve. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if we don''t help them, who will help them? It''s worth doing to let the soldiers in the army have energy and spirit, to let the soldiers in the army dare to fight and solve their worries. "


    "Soldiers should be treated as soldiers."


    "Soldiers should be respected."


    "Today, Cui Jin, the army''s meritorious officer, has no respect for the soldiers."


    "This trend should not grow."


    Zhang Xiu said: "we have been fighting on the battlefield for years. After that, there will be more and more retired soldiers because of injuries. If these people are not properly placed, that is the hidden danger. That''s why I''m going to put them in. "


    Xu Shu said, "what will the Lord do?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "for this matter, generally I have several ideas like this."


    "First, they are in good health. Let them work at home and restaurants and be responsible for maintaining the order of home and restaurants. Such a simple thing is not a problem for soldiers. "


    "In particular, the business of restaurants and restaurants is good. With the continuous expansion, more and more people will need them. Let retired soldiers go and find jobs for them, so that their families will not lose their labor force. "


    Zhang Xiu put forward the first point.


    Xu Shu said: "the Lord''s suggestion is good. In particular, home and restaurant are the industries of the Lord. It''s not difficult to get some wounded soldiers in. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "second, set up a transport team. Disabled soldiers are specially responsible for the transportation of military equipment and weapons. Although they are injured, they have something to do and money to earn. I believe they can overcome the difficulties. "


    "Third, the formation of urban management team. In such a big Chang''an, even if there are officials controlling the situation and yamen officers patrolling all directions, many places are still in a mess. We will allocate a number of retired wounded soldiers to patrol and protect the city, and report any incident immediately. "


    "Fourth, the transportation of anthracite is carriage loading and hauling, which also needs to be supervised. Our wounded soldiers can also take care of the transportation of anthracite and arrange some people. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as you are willing to think about it, you will be able to find more and more suitable positions for wounded soldiers. To do so, on the one hand, is to let the retired wounded appreciate and solve their livelihood. On the other hand, it is also to stabilize the morale of the army and let the soldiers dare to fight and kill. "


    After hearing this, Xu Shu solemnly said, "don''t worry, my Lord. The humble Council will push forward step by step according to what my Lord has said."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face is full of smiles.


    If the worries of the soldiers in the army are solved, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under his command can reach a higher level.


    This is what Zhang Xiu values.


    To sweep the world, we need not only enough food and money, but also soldiers in the army to win.


    Otherwise, it would be to abandon the essence and pursue the end.


    After Xu Shu left, Zhang Xiu dealt with the government affairs that needed his approval recently, and went back to visit her son in the backyard. Now he looks at his son, and his heart is full of joy.


    It''s good to have a son!


    Zhang Xiu stayed in Chang''an, but she was at leisure for a while. During Zhang Xiu''s stay in Chang''an, the address of the Academy was selected. According to Zhang Xiu''s plan, she is going to choose a site in Chang''an city.


    However, Yang Biao thought that the construction of academies in the city was prosperous and noisy, which would easily affect the scholars'' study, so he chose the abandoned Shanglin garden.


    After all, the place is wide.


    Even if there is a racecourse in charge of Su Shuang near Shanglin garden, there is still enough space.


    To this, Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    After the site selection was finalized, the Academy recruited craftsmen and started construction on a large scale.


    The construction of the Academy caused a great shock after the news came out. Yang Biao was an old minister of the dynasty. Perhaps his academic attainments were not as good as Zheng Xuan. However, in terms of domestic fame, Yang Biao was able to hang Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning, Bing yuan and other celebrities.


    Yang Biao has enough qualifications.Yang Biao was the dean of the Academy, which surprised countless people.


    With the Academy in full swing, Yang Biao and Sima Fang are constantly busy. When the Academy started construction, Sima Fang came to Yang Biao''s residence.


    Today, both Yang Biao and Sima Fang live here in Shanglin garden.


    It''s near the Academy.


    Every day, they went to the academy to check the construction.


    When Sima Fang saw Yang Biao, he arched his hand and said, "Mr. Yang, everything in the academy has gone to normal. It''s just our academy. How should we name it? It''s impossible. It''s just the word Academy. It has to have a specific name. The stone archway at the gate of the academy has been built and is ready to be put up. "


    Yang Biao stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "how do you think about Jiangong?"


    Jian Gong is Sima Fang''s word.


    In front of Yang Biao, Sima Fang was a junior. In fact, Sima Fang''s position in front of Yang Biao is quite different.


    Sima Fang said: "in my opinion, I have to ask the Taiwei to decide. Taiwei was responsible for the arrangement of the Academy. It''s most appropriate to be named after Taiwei. "


    "Yes!"


    Yang Biao praised: "this matter, I personally went to Taiwei''s house."


    Sima Fang said, "I''ll go with Yang Gong!"


    "Yes!"


    Yang Biao nodded.


    Although Yang Biao was old, he was very busy. He and Sima Fang left Shanglin garden and went to Taiwei''s residence in the city. Now the weather is getting warmer, ice and snow are melting, and everything is reviving. Yang Biao''s body and bones are much softer.


    Although it''s chilly in spring, no matter how cold it is, it''s not as cold as before.


    Yang Biao arrived at Taiwei''s house by carriage and entered directly. After a while in the hall, Zhang Xiu strode out.


    Yang Biao said, "I''ve met Taiwei!"


    Sima Fang also got up to salute.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you don''t have to be polite."


    With that, he ordered people to take seats for Yang Biao and Sima Fang. When Yang Biao and Sima Fang sat down, Zhang Xiu said, "Lord Yang has been busy with the Academy. What''s the important thing today?"


    With a smile on his face, Yang Biao said, "it''s good for Taiwei to know that the academy is in full swing. In addition, the stone archway at the gate of the academy has been completed and ready to be listed. However, the name of the academy has not been set. After discussing with Sima Fang, I agreed that only the name of Taiwei was the most appropriate. "


    "Name?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought quickly and pondered over the name of the Academy.

 Chapter 494

    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "the name of the Academy doesn''t need to be too fancy. It''s just simple and grand. Chang''an is the ancient capital, and the academy is in Chang''an, so it is named after Chang''an Academy. "


    "Yes!"


    Yang Biao didn''t say anything.


    The name of the Academy was decided by Zhang Xiu.


    Yang Biao said again: "in addition, please give me the ink treasure. The establishment of Chang''an academy is inseparable from the support of Taiwei. Therefore, we think that it is most appropriate for Taiwei to give his own name. "


    Zhang Xiu did not refuse to come, so he directly ordered his attendants to take ink, paper and inkstone, and spread Xuan paper on the desk. He took out a brush for writing big characters, dipped it in ink and wrote down four big characters of Chang''an Academy.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are as strong as paper.


    The font is powerful and powerful. Even if Yang Biao saw it, he could not help but brighten his eyes.


    Good word!


    What a good word!


    Yang Biao raised his head and looked at Zhang Xiu in surprise. Through his understanding of Zhang Xiu, he did not think that Zhang Xiu was an ordinary martial artist, a man of both wisdom and courage.


    But after all, Zhang Xiu is a martial artist. Even if she is smart, her character may not be very good.


    This is a very different hand.


    Yang Biao did not know that Zhang Xiu had been practicing calligraphy since she was a child, and the calligraphy was excellent. Although it can''t reach the master''s level, Zhang Xiu''s characters are also unique.


    After appreciating it, Yang Biao carefully put it away and said again, "it''s better to write a few words of encouragement to the Academy scholars. The old man had to be copied and hung inside the academy to encourage the scholars. "


    This words, Sima Fang is Leng, he thinks Yang Biao is flattering.


    Deliberately give Zhang Xiu face.


    However, Sima Fang did not say much. He was only the vice president of the Academy, helping Yang Biao deal with things. In the final analysis, Yang Biao is the dean of the academy and the decisive person.


    Yang Biao noticed Sima Fang''s eyes, but he didn''t take Sima FA''s mind to heart.


    He didn''t mean to flatter, he just wanted to get a few more words.


    Yang Biao is a master of Confucianism with profound knowledge. When he saw Zhang Xiu''s words, he was very glad to see them. He wanted Zhang Xiu to write a few words to study them, so he asked Zhang Xiu to think about them, take out rice paper again and write quickly.


    "The sound of the wind, the sound of the rain, the sound of reading, the sound of hearing!"


    "Family affairs, state affairs, world affairs, care about everything!"


    The neat couplet was written by Zhang Xiu. When the ink dried up, Zhang Xiu handed it to Yang Biao. Yang Biao looked at it carefully. The more he looked, the more he liked it. He liked the charm of the two sentences and the more he liked the word.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu wrote: "my generation of scholars should set up their minds for the heaven and earth, set up their lives for the people, carry on their unique learning to the saints, and open peace for all generations."


    A word is completed, Zhang Xiu gives Yang Biao again, way: "Yang Gong, these."


    "Set your heart for heaven and earth!"


    "Life for the people!"


    "To carry on the unique learning to the Holy Land!"


    "Peace for the world!"


    "Great courage!"


    Yang Biao''s murmur sentence by sentence, when he looks at Zhang Xiu, his eyes give birth to the feeling of looking up to the top of the mountain. In front of him, he lost most of his knowledge.


    Yang Biao is also full of poetry and books, reading classics. However, he had never heard of such words and knew that this was what Zhang Xiu said.


    It''s made by Zhang Xiu.


    Yang Biao put down the ink treasure in his hand, folded his hands, and solemnly bowed to Zhang Xiu, saying: "Taiwei has great intelligence, great courage, great perseverance and great ambition, which Yang Biao admired."


    Sima Fang was also extremely shocked. Previously, he thought that Yang Biao was a flatterer.


    I didn''t expect to shoot a thunderbolt.


    It''s amazing.


    Sima Fang got up and bowed to Zhang Xiu. He sighed with emotion at the meaning contained in this sentence. He felt that Zhang Xiu was like a bottomless cave and could hardly see through the depth.


    He didn''t know what Zhang Xiu didn''t reveal.


    It''s amazing!


    Zhang Xiu saw their actions in her eyes and waved her hand to let them sit down. She didn''t say much. It was Yang Biao who asked him to write some to Shizi, and what he wrote was the famous aphorism of later scholars.


    I didn''t expect to have such an effect.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of hasty steps came from outside the hall.


    The more quickly Wang entered, there was a dignified look on his face. He came to the hall, saluted Zhang Xiu, and stood by.


    Zhang Xiu knew something and asked, "Mr. Yang, is there anything else?"


    "No more."


    Yang Biao shook his head and answered.


    At this time, he would like to take Zhang Xiu''s ink immediately and study it carefully. He is an old man in the world. When he saw this situation, he got up to say goodbye with Sima Fang.


    After Yang Biao and Sima Fang left, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "what''s the matter?"Wang Yue replied: "at present, there are two things. The first thing is that Hu Zhao, the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture, governs the local area and has achieved remarkable results. In just a few months, Hanoi prefecture has been greatly governed. Countless people came to praise Hu Zhao''s achievements. "


    "But Hu Zhao managed the place and angered Zhang Yan, a black mountain army hiding on the northeast border of Hanoi county and in dangyin county."


    "Because of Hu Zhao''s rule, many people came out of the mountains, which weakened Zhang Yan''s strength."


    "For this reason, Zhang Yan led his troops down the mountain to plunder and captured nearly 2000 people at one time. Huang Zhong sits on the border and leads his troops to attack Zhang Yan in Heishan. But Zhang Yan retreats into Heishan. Huang Zhong has nothing to do


    Wang Yue said, "this is the first thing. It''s related to the black mountain thief Zhang Yan."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the second thing?"


    Wang Yue once again said: "the news from the royal guards lurking in Yecheng is that after the spring of February, Yuan Shao has begun to mobilize soldiers, mobilize troops, prepare food and grass, and prepare to go south to attack Hanoi county. It is expected that Yuan Shao will send troops in the near future. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was not surprised.


    Now it''s spring in February and it''s getting warmer. With the cold winter fading and the early spring coming, it''s time to fight.


    Yuan Shao was not surprised.


    Zhang Xiu''s surprise is that she didn''t expect to have a relationship with Zhang Yan.


    Zhang Yan, formerly known as Chu Yan, was a bandit in his early years. Later, Chu Yan followed Zhang Niujiao, a bandit of the Heishan army. He was highly valued by Zhang Niujiao and was even accepted as his adopted son.


    After Zhang Niujiao died, Chu Yan was elected the leader and renamed Zhang Yan.


    In history, Zhang Yan, who was based in Heishan, had fought with Yuan Shao several times. After Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao and pacified Hebei, Zhang Yan surrendered to Cao Cao.


    Zhang Yan''s position in Heishan is difficult because of his dangerous position.


    In particular, there are countless people living in the mountains, and the people and soldiers under Zhang Yan''s jurisdiction are no less than 100000. The most important thing is that Heishan is a branch of the Taihang Mountains. The mountains are vast and can accommodate more than 100000 people, even hundreds of thousands of people.


    Such Zhang Yan is extremely difficult to deal with.


    Because the mountain is too big, it is not a small place and easy to deal with. Zhang Yan retreated to Heishan and hid in the Taihang Mountains. To deal with Zhang Yan is like looking for a needle in a haystack.


    This is extremely difficult.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yue, inform the six ministers, the inspector''s court, and the assistant officials of Taiwei''s house to discuss the matter."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to inform immediately.


    Within a short time, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Pang Tong and others, as well as Yang Xiu, Sima Yi, Guoyuan and others, all gathered in the hall of the prefecture.


    After entering, they saluted Zhang Xiu and took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the crowd, the voice disappeared, and the crowd was silent. Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said immediately about Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao. Finally, she said, "Zhang Yan is suffering from a serious problem, while Yuan Shao is the enemy. It''s a matter of arranging the dispatch of troops to gather people. "


    It is clear to everyone that he went north to fight against Yuan Shao.


    This is a big crisis.


    It''s also a big opportunity.


    Once Zhang Xiu defeats Yuan Shao and resists the attack of Yuan Shao''s army, it means that Zhang Xiu has the capital to look down on the princes in the world. Zhang Xiu could defeat such a great Marquis as Yuan Shao. Why should he be afraid of all the marquis in the world.


    This is the capital of a person.

 Chapter 495

    "Lord, please fight


    Chen Dao took the lead to speak. As the commander of Langya camp, Chen Dao has more than 10000 soldiers in Langya camp. The number of cavalry under his command increased to 10000. In addition, there are more than 10000 infantry, and the strength of the whole Langya battalion has been expanded to more than 20000.


    This is a very strong fighting capacity.


    Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping contributed a lot to the rapid development of cavalry. When they arrived in Chang''an, they worked hard to raise horses in Shanglin garden, continuously cultivated war horses, and continuously provided war horses for Zhang Xiu.


    This is the basis of the rapid expansion of cavalry.


    Otherwise, it is impossible for Langya camp to have more than 10000 elite riders in a short time.


    "Lord, please fight


    Gan Ning also followed suit. The number of fierce tiger soldiers under his command has expanded to 30000.


    Among them, there are some cavalry.


    Although Ganning does not have many cavalry, it is better to have cavalry than no cavalry.


    After Chen Dao and Gan Ning invited him to fight, Zhang Yan was also unwilling to fight, so he got up to fight. This trip to the north is likely to be against Yuan Shao''s army, but now that Zhang Ya has been subordinated, he will not consider anything else, but only consider fighting.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "when we go north, Langya camp and the fierce tiger army will fight with Huang Zhong''s flying bear army."


    "I''ll do it


    Chen Dao and Gan Ning answer.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhang Yan and said, "I''ll stay in Chang''an and coordinate with all parties to avoid turmoil in the rear. Moreover, after all, you used to be a subordinate of Yuan Shao. Once you went north to fight with Yuan Shao and met old friends, it was not easy to deal with them. This time, your regular army stayed behind. "


    "Here it is


    It''s time to open your jaw.


    There''s nothing to complain about. It must be inconvenient to fight Yuan Shao. Just from his point of view, he is the head of Zhang Xiu''s department. It''s necessary to attack Yuan Shao for Zhang Xiu. We can''t think about old friends.


    Zhang Xiu can consider for him, that is the best.


    It''s best to have both loyalty and righteousness.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the crowd and said in a deep voice: "six books of history, stay in Chang''an. This time, Yang Xiu and Sima Yi went north with them. "


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu and Sima Yi should go down together.


    Both of them look happy. It''s wonderful to go north to fight.


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others have many things in their hands. When it comes to the deployment of troops, we are busy and unable to get away from it. It''s OK not to fight at this time.


    Pang Tong took the initiative to say: "Lord, please fight in your humble position. Now many things have been arranged properly. In the Ministry of rites, the meritorious officials deal with daily affairs, but there are not many things in their humble positions. I''m willing to go north with my Lord. "


    Unlike Jia Xu and others, he is still young and unwilling to stay in Chang''an.


    Although Xu Shu, Liu Ba, Li Yan and others are young, they are very busy. Only he here, not many things, even if there are things are not complicated, he is not willing to stay.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "if that''s the case, let''s go north together."


    "Thank you


    Pang Tong''s face was full of smiles.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s all go down!"


    "Here it is


    Everyone should go to work together.


    After everyone left, Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard and told Huang Yueying about the upcoming battle. Huang Yueying was not surprised by Zhang Xiu''s expedition.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has been out for many years, and there are many wars.


    What Huang Yueying can do is to take good care of the children and stabilize Zhang Xiu''s backyard.


    That''s what she should do.


    After a lot of love, Zhang Xiu left Taiwei''s house and took Wang Yue to the barracks. The royal guards and Zhang Xiu protect each other at any time and follow Zhang Xiu into the barracks.


    When Zhang Xiu comes to the barracks, Gan Ning and Chen Dao have mobilized their troops. In addition, Pang Tong, Yang Xiu and Sima Yi also arrived.


    "Let''s go!"


    When Zhang Xiu saw that all the people had arrived, she no longer hesitated and gave the order to send troops.


    The army left Chang''an for Hanoi county to the north. When the army entered Hanoi County, it was already March, when the weather was warm, sunny and comfortable.


    When Zhang Xiu went to the north, he got the news from the royal guards and Yecheng.


    In Xudu, Cao Cao sent troops.


    This time, Cao Cao sent troops to attack Lu Bu of Xuzhou to completely pacify Xuzhou. As long as Cao Cao pacifies Xuzhou, it means that Cao Cao''s strength will occupy the whole Central Plains.


    But it''s not easy.


    Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, while Yuan Shao stepped up his attack on Gongsun Zan. In addition, Yuan Shao sent troops from Yecheng and mobilized 100000 elite soldiers to leave Yecheng and fight in the direction of Hanoi county.


    One hundred thousand troops are absolutely elite.


    This time, Yuan Shao wanted to crush Zhang Xiu to get revenge.For Yuan Shao, Zhang Xiu''s beheading of Yan Liang, killing Wen Chou, and even bringing down Zhang Yan and Tian Feng were a great shame to Yuan Shao. That''s why Yuan Shao sent so many troops.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised by Yuan Shao''s dispatch.


    Yuan Shao has 100000 people, and Zhang Xiu has a lot of troops. In his hands, there are 30, 000 fierce tigers from Gan Ning, 20, 000 Langya battalion from Chen Dao, and 30, 000 flying bears from Huang Zhong, totaling 80, 000 elite soldiers.


    This is not a weak force.


    The 80000 elite soldiers are all veterans of the battlefield. They have been fighting in the battlefield.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, there are more than 100000 troops in the conventional army led by Shang Zhang.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s family background.


    However, with Zhang Xiu''s financial resources, she did not worry about logistics, food and money. Whether it''s coal, stone or Xuan paper, they are all cornucopia, constantly earning countless money for Zhang Xiu to ensure financial abundance.


    When the army arrived in huaixian County, Zhang Xiu took a rest outside the city.


    At the same time, Zhang Xiu listened to Hu Zhao''s work.


    Today, Hu Zhao completely controls the whole Hanoi county. All the counties are under Hu Zhao''s control, because the county magistrate of Hanoi county is reappointed by Hu Zhao, and they are all talented people.


    Hu Zhao has already issued a notice to promote one by one that he will start his career in early April.


    This is known to countless people in Hanoi county.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see the success of Hu Zhao''s reform and hopes that Hu Zhao can succeed. With Hu Zhao''s experience, we can promote the matter of starting a scholar''s career, form a characteristic under his rule of Zhang Xiu, and build a rising channel for scholars.


    After hearing Hu Zhao''s work report, Zhang Xiu asked, "what do you think of Kong Ming, Zhang Yan?"


    Hu Zhao looked solemn, reported: "Lord, Zhang Yan''s situation, roughly two."


    "First, Zhang Yan and Yuan Shao have a grudge."


    "Second, I have widely inquired about Zhang Yan. This man is willful and chivalrous, not killing innocent people indiscriminately. Otherwise, there would not be a hundred thousand people in Heishan, and there would not be so many people following him. This person may be able to surrender. "


    Hu Zhao made suggestions.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s heart became lively.


    What Hu Zhao said is true.


    Maybe he can try to attract Zhang Yan. If Zhang Yan is attached to Yuan Shao in this battle, Zhang Yan is a surprise soldier in the battle between Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao, which can achieve a surprising result.

 Chapter 496

    After a dialogue with Hu Zhao, Zhang Xiu is more at ease with Hu Zhao. With Hu Zhao in Hanoi County, the next development of Hanoi county will have a high-speed development stage, and people''s life will be better and better.


    After a brief rest, Zhang Xiu led her troops north to dangyin County, north of Hanoi county.


    Now the army led by Huang Zhong is stationed in dangyin county.


    Heishan is in dangyin county.


    Montenegrin.


    Shanzhai, in the hall.


    A thin, sharp eyed middle-aged man, sitting on the throne.


    This person is Zhang Yan.


    When Zhang Yan was young, he led the army and killed the officials to revolt. Later, he surrendered to Zhang Niujiao. He was not only respected by Zhang Niujiao, but also accepted by Zhang Niujiao as his adopted son.


    He''s a small man, but he''s born with power. In particular, Zhang Yan in the battlefield, dare to fight dare to kill, extremely brave. Besides, Zhang Yan has read some books and knows some simple art of war.


    He has great prestige in Black Hills.


    Zhang Yan, in particular, did not kill innocent people indiscriminately. He commanded the Heishan army, restrained the soldiers and prohibited them from invading the people. Only in this way could he coerce countless people into the mountains and live in the mountains.


    Now, some people on the mountain have left.


    Because under Hu Zhao''s rule, people''s life in Hanoi county was getting better and better. When the news came to the mountains, some people envied the life outside the mountains, and those who did not want to stay quietly left Heishan to live in the secular world.


    Usually, when Zhang Yan went down the mountain to plunder, he didn''t need to plunder the people. All he needed to do was play the name of the black mountain army, and there were countless people crying to follow him into black mountain and avoid the war.


    Now, it''s hard.


    Zhang Yan''s eyes fell on a scholar below and said in a deep voice: "Sir, the latest news is that Zhang Xiu has entered dangyin county with more than 50000 troops. Zhang Xiu is about to join Huang Zhong. What do you think of this? "


    Ren Qiong, a scholar of letters, was nearly 40 years old. He was thin and had three short whiskers under his jaw, which made him feel weak.


    He is a poor scholar.


    At one time, Ren Qiong made a living by selling calligraphy and paintings at the foot of the mountain. Later, he was captured by the Heishan army and discovered by Zhang Yan. He became Zhang Yan''s counselor.


    Ren Qiong stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Lord, in my opinion, although Zhang Xiu sent 50000 soldiers to dangyin County, it''s not for us. When the LORD went down the mountain, he just took away more than a thousand people, which is not a big deal. It''s impossible for such a thing to disturb Zhang Xiu and let him personally send troops to encircle and suppress. "


    Zhang Yan said, "what does Mr. Ren mean?"


    Ren Qiong explained: "report back to my Lord, I think that Zhang Xiu''s troops must be to resist Yuan Shao."


    "At the end of last year, in the battle of Hanoi Prefecture, Zhang Xiu defeated Yuan Shao''s army, killed Yan Liang and killed Wen Chou. For people like Yuan Shao, this is a great shame."


    "Yuan Shao will not give up."


    Ren Qiong said: "you know, Huang Zhong stationed in dangyin county still has more than 30000 elite soldiers. Just a dangyin County, Zhang Xiu stationed more than 80000 elite soldiers. It would be a fuss to say that Zhang Xiu used 80000 excellent soldiers to fight against the Lord. "


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside the hall.


    A sentry entered quickly and handed a letter to Ren Qiong.


    Ren Qiong took a quick look in front of Zhang Yan, and then he showed a bright smile on his face and said, "Lord, Yuan Shao has sent troops. Yuan Shao''s army of one hundred thousand soldiers came from Yecheng, and he had already attacked the county seat of dangyin county. Now, there must be a fierce battle between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu. This battle must be extremely fierce. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Yan frowned and said, "how can we deal with the fighting between the two sides in dangyin county?"


    This is Zhang Yan''s concern.


    In terms of real strength, Zhang Yan is neither Yuan Shao''s opponent nor Zhang Xiu''s opponent. If Zhang Yan wants to wrestle with these people, he must unite with the black mountain bandits of Zhongshan, Changshan, Zhaojun, Shangdang and other counties to gather all the generals of the black mountain family together.


    In that case, we can fight against Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu.


    But the price is too high.


    Without sufficient interests, it is impossible for the rest of the Montenegrin army to send troops.


    Zhang Yan is located in Hanoi County of Heishan. Although she has gathered more than 100000 people, her real troops are only 20000 or 30000.


    After all, most of them are people.


    Ren Qiong stroked his beard under his jaw. After thinking about it, he said, "it depends on how the Lord makes his decision. There are three strategies for the Lord to make his decision."


    Zhang Yan said: "Sir, please say it!"


    Ren Qiong replied: "the best way to be humble is for the Lord to stay in Heishan, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and let Zhang Xiu fight with Yuan Shao. The strength of the two sides is equal, and there is not much difference between them. Once both sides are defeated, the Lord will fight out and sweep them


    "Of course, it''s not easy."


    "After all, it is not easy to achieve the result of losing both sides. To achieve the best strategy, we need a certain amount of luck, otherwise it is impossible to adopt this strategy. "


    Ren Qiong put forward the best policy.After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yan nodded: "the best policy is good, but it is difficult to operate. Such conditions need to be favorable at the right time, the right place and the right people. It''s not easy. "


    Ren Qiong chin said: "what the LORD said is very true. The best way to be humble is to send someone to unite with him. They may unite with Yuan Shao or Zhang Xiu, and then attack one side to profit from it. "


    "Whether it''s Zhang Xiu or Yuan Shao, the power of the Lord is very important."


    "If the Lord releases his goodwill, the other party will most likely accept it. Of course, Yuan Shao is less likely to accept it. After all, Yuan Shao was born in a family, but he didn''t look up to his father''s family. "


    "Especially between the Lord and Yuan Shao, there was a rift."


    Ren Qiong said: "as for Zhang Xiu, although the Lord captured and approached 2000 people, he never killed them. If the Lord wanted to, maybe Zhang Xiu would agree to form an alliance."


    Zhang Yan''s eyes dripped and turned, but she didn''t make a decision immediately. She said, "this is a good strategy, but what about the third strategy?"


    Ren Qiong said: "the third way to be humble is to submit to one side. Although the LORD lives in Heishan, he is not easy to be attacked or attacked. He is like a paradise in the world, but as the saying goes, sleeping on the side of his bed does not allow others to snore. "


    "No one will. Let the Lord stay in Heishan all the time."


    "In the past, the government had no way, and the people were in dire straits. It is very easy for the Lord to coerce the people to go up the mountain. But now it is more and more difficult for Heishan to coerce the people under the administration of Zhang Zhao in Hanoi Prefecture. "


    "In particular, Zhang Xiu, Yuan Shao of Jizhou and Cao Cao of Sikong of the imperial court are all very wise people, and they are good for the people under their rule."


    "As a result, the strength of the government is gradually increasing."


    Ren Qiong said: "we are likely to be in trouble. In the long run, the Lord can choose to submit to one side. Of course, depending on others, there is no freedom. So it''s a bad idea to say that you''re a lowlife. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Yan nodded with a look of approval.


    Ren Qiong''s analysis is very thorough.


    This is also the reason why he was responsible for Qiong. Although Zhang Yan knew some military tactics, he had great shortcomings in wisdom and local governance.


    With Ren Qiong, many difficulties Zhang Yan encountered can be solved.


    Zhang Yan kept thinking. After a moment, she said, "Sir, what do you think of our threatening 2000 people to let Zhang Xiu come up to the mountain for negotiation and alliance?"


    "Ah


    When Ren Qiong heard the speech, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    Zhang Yan is so naive.


    Ren Qiong said: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu is a powerful and powerful Imperial officer. To let him come to the mountain is to risk his life. I''m afraid Zhang Xiu won''t like such a thing. "


    Zhang Yan said in a deep voice: "if you don''t have a try, how can you know?"


    Ren Qiong said: "this arrangement is easy for Zhang Xiu to think that it is the Lord''s provocation. If we talk about the alliance, we can only refuse to take the chance of Zhang Jing. "


    Zhang Yan said: "even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t come, it doesn''t have much influence on us."


    "What I''m thinking about is that Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu, killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and ended the turmoil in Guanzhong. In addition, Zhang Xiu is also from a martial arts background and will not despise our background. "


    "Zhang Xiu is pretty good."


    "I sent someone to invite him, just to test his courage and see if he dares to come. If he comes, observe what he says and how he behaves. If we can, we will submit to Zhang Xiu. "


    "These days, more and more people want to go down the mountain. We can''t detain people all the time. That''s not my intention. Our foundation is the people. Now that the foundation has been lost and we are hiding in the Black Hills, our strength will be constantly weakened. "


    Zhang Yan said: "so, I want to try Zhang Xiu, to see Zhang Xiu''s response."


    After hearing this, Ren Qiong said, "since the Lord has made a decision, let''s have a try. He arranged for a general to go down the mountain to the barracks of Zhang Xiu in dangyin county. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Yan nodded and answered.


    Ren Qiong stood up and left in a hurry to arrange the next thing.


    Zhang Yan sat alone in the hall with a pondering look on her face. Zhang Yan is not a greedy man for power or pleasure. He has no idea of dominating. He is close to the people.


    That''s why he is willing to make a choice, otherwise he can''t let the people go down the mountain.

 Chapter 497

    North of Hanoi County, dangyin county.


    Huang Zhong''s army was not stationed in the city, but outside the north of the city. The site where the army camped was wide and close to the water source, so it was convenient to get water.


    At this point, the barracks gate.


    Dressed in armor, Huang Zhong is waiting for him.


    He personally went to the gate of the camp to meet Zhang Xiu because the army of Zhang Xiu was about to arrive. Now it is early spring, a warm sun across the sky, emitting heat, dispelling the chill of early spring.


    Just as Huang Zhong was waiting, a black line appeared on the official road ahead. This black line is constantly wriggling, and the sound of horse''s hooves comes from far and near.


    Huang Zhong was shocked when he saw it.


    Here we are!


    Here comes Zhang Xiu!


    After Huang Zhong saw it, he waited for a moment. When he could see the figures of the soldiers in the army, the distance between the two sides was less than 100 steps. Huang Zhong shakes his clothes and walks out.


    After more than 30 steps, he saw Zhang Xiu and said: "General Huang Zhong, meet the Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Han Sheng doesn''t have to be polite!"


    Huang Zhong waved his hand and said, "Lord, please!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and led the army into the barracks. After entering the camp, Gan Ning and Chen went to resettle their troops.


    Huang Zhong leads Zhang Xiu into the army tent. This is the tent that Huang Zhong arranges people to set up early when he learns that Zhang Xiu is coming. It is the handsome tent of Zhang Xiu..


    Take your seat.


    Huang Zhong said: "Lord, according to the information he has received, Yuan Shao has sent 100000 soldiers to the South and is almost at the border of dangyin county. Because of the lack of humble troops, they did not go north to fight. They planned to stay near the county seat of dangyin county and take advantage of the county town to defend the enemy. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "after the expansion of your forces, there are only more than 30000 elite troops. If you have to face Yuan Shao''s 100000 troops, you can''t stop it. But now, it''s different. With more than 50000 elite soldiers I brought, we have a total of 80000 elite soldiers, which is enough to resist Yuan Shao. "


    "But now, we can''t fight Yuan Shao directly."


    "After all, Zhang Yan''s troops are still in dangyin County, which is an unstable factor."


    "If it''s only Yuan Shao, we''ll fight with all our strength and defeat Yuan Shao, then we can recover quickly."


    "But if Zhang Yan is here, if we fight with Yuan Shao, and the strength of both sides is weakened, Zhang Yan will kill us in the air and give us a fatal blow, then it''s not good."


    "Now, we need to solve Zhang Yan first."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how much do you know about Zhang Yan hiding in Heishan?"


    Huang Zhong replied, "I will report back to my Lord. There are three main things I know about my humble position."


    Zhang xiudao: "tell me in detail."


    At the moment, Pang Tong, Yang Xiu and Sima Yi sat down and listened carefully.


    Three people are Zhang Xiu''s accompanying counselors, is to give advice for Zhang Xiu, must understand the situation.


    Huang Zhong said: "first of all, Zhang Yan, although he is a dictator, has never killed innocent people indiscriminately. Zhang Yan had led the troops down the mountain before. Although she had captured nearly 2000 people, she did not cause any casualties. She just carried them away. "


    "Moreover, although Zhang Yan plundered the mountain, it did not affect the ordinary people. It was aimed at the rich and powerful families."


    "Ordinary people have never been hurt."


    "Zhang Yan has a certain conscience and bottom line," Huang said


    Zhang Xiu said, "what about the second one?"


    Huang Zhong continued: "second, Zhang Yan did not restrain the people in Heishan and did not stop them from going down the mountain. During this period of time, because under the governance of Hu Taishou, Hanoi Prefecture was under great rule, and after the county magistrate of dangyin county was replaced, production was constantly restored, so that the people could settle down. "


    "The news spread that many people who once hid in Heishan went down the mountain one after another."


    "Zhang Yan did not stop the people from going down the mountain."


    "According to the people from Heishan, Zhang Yan from Heishan also restrained the soldiers from committing crimes. Generally speaking, although he is in Heishan, he is similar to the princes who occupy one side


    "Third, Zhang Yan is quite chivalrous."


    "According to the information inquired, although Zhang Yan occupies one side and has certain power, he is not the kind of person who is greedy for pleasure or power."


    "On the contrary, it''s chivalrous."


    Huang Zhong said: "Mo Jiang tried to fight Zhang Yan several times, but they all failed. After all, he avoided fighting in the mountains. The deeper we know about him, the more likely it is to surrender Zhang Yan. He is not like publicity, but also not like Li Xi and Guo Si. This person has conscience and bottom line. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked thoughtful.


    The expression on Sima Yi''s face was slightly dignified, and he said in a deep voice: "most of the people in this world are people with human face and animal heart, and most of them are people with cruel mind but not superficial. General Huang got the news that Zhang Yan was a hero, but what if Zhang Yan was a deep man in the city? You know, people who can control countless people and soldiers can''t be simple goods. "


    Huang Zhong said, "what Zhongda said is true, but what I have explained is only the information I know."Sima Yi said no more.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a soldier came in and reported: "I''m calling on Taiwei. Envoy Zhang Yan came outside the camp and asked to see Taiwei."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    At this moment, there was an unexpected look on Zhang Xiu''s face.


    He never thought that Zhang Yan arranged envoys to come as soon as he arrived in dangyin County, which was really unexpected.


    Huang Zhong, Sima Yi and Yang Xiu were also surprised.


    Not long after, a young man with a strong figure and an ordinary face came to the camp. When the young man saw Zhang Xiu, he hugged his fist and said, "I''ve seen Tai Wei Zhang. I''m under the order of my Lord. I''ve come to invite Tai Wei Zhang to have a talk in Heishan."


    Zhang Xiu was surprised, and Zhang Yan took the initiative to invite him to Heishan.


    It was an accident.


    But on Zhang Xiu''s face, Gujing didn''t wave. She asked faintly, "what did Zhang Yan invite me to the meeting to talk about?"


    The young man once again said: "first, talk about the disposal of the two thousand people who were abducted; second, talk about the alliance against Yuan Shao. Now the army dispatched by Yuan Shao is going south and is about to enter Hanoi Prefecture. Is general Zhang not afraid? "


    After a pause, the young man said again, "my Lord, I heard that general Zhang killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and killed the head of the Xiongnu thief. His courage is amazing. Just don''t know, Zhang Taiwei dare to go to Heishan? My Lord is in the Black Hills, waiting


    Zhang Xiu looked at the young man in front of her, a little surprised. The young man''s appearance was ordinary, seemingly plain, but his speech and manner were quite appropriate.


    In the speech, it is free and easy.


    This man is not simple.


    It is more obvious that Zhang Yan is not simple.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought quickly in her heart. Soon, Zhang Xiu had the answer and said, "when will Zhang Yan invite me to meet in Heishan?"


    The young man looked indifferent and replied, "whenever Zhang Taiwei goes to Heishan and gives his name, someone will come to meet him."


    Zhang Xiu said, "go back and tell Zhang Yan that I will be there in a few days."


    "Here it is


    The young man bowed and turned away.


    But after the youth left, Huang Zhong, Sima Yi, Yang Xiu and others fried the pot.


    One by one, they looked worried.


    Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "Lord, although it is said that Zhang Yan may be recruited to surrender in a humble position, in fact, as Zhong Da said, what kind of person Zhang Yan is is still unknown. I object to your going to see Zhang Yan in Heishan. If you want to negotiate with Zhang Yan, that''s Zhang Yan coming down the mountain to negotiate. How can you commit a personal risk? "


    Pang Tong said: "if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, he will fall short in case of a mistake. I''m in a humble position. I''m against the Lord''s going. "


    Yang Xiu also said: "my Lord, I''m against humble position. You don''t have to go in person. It''s OK for you to go to your humble post as an envoy. I''d like to go to Heishan for a while, Zhang Yan. "


    Sima Yi said: "Lord, please think twice!"


    All of them are opposed by Qi Shushu and do not want Zhang Xiu to go. Because Heishan is Zhang Yan''s territory, in case Zhang Yan wants to kill Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will be in a very dangerous situation.


    It''s quite dangerous.

 Chapter 498

    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face was serious, but she said in a deep voice: "I understand your concerns. But if we can persuade Zhang Yan to surrender and fight Yuan Shao this time, we will have an opportunity to defeat Yuan Shao. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "if we defeat Yuan Shao in the first World War, then we can lay the foundation of dominating Guanzhong. Although there is a certain danger, the harvest is very considerable. "


    In the words, there is a firm tone.


    Sima Yi frowned. During this period of time, he followed Zhang Xiu and knew Zhang Xiu''s temperament. Once Zhang Xiu makes a decision, it is basically not easy to change.


    Sima Yi thought about it and sighed: "Lord, your habit of taking risks is really in your bone marrow. It''s the same with Xu Du''s previous trip, and it''s the same with today''s trip to Heishan. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''m good at taking risks, but I''m quite sure."


    In later generations, as a soldier, Zhang Xiu carried out numerous dangerous tasks and was not afraid of risks. He knows better that opportunities and risks coexist. Once the risks are overcome, the benefits are correspondingly.


    Zhang Xiu is clear that there is a problem in his temperament that he likes to take risks.


    But for Zhang Xiu, he dares to take risks, and his heart has been weighed.


    With a certain degree of assurance, Zhang Xiu dares to take risks.


    Yang Xiu frowned and said in a deep voice: "Lord, you think about it. Young Master Cheng was just born. It''s time to cry. As soon as Guanzhong has stabilized, it is time to play steadily. It''s too risky for you to take risks now. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "there are risks, but in fact, Guanzhong is just stable, but it''s duckweed in the water. Once Yuan Shao''s attack could not be stopped, everything in Guanzhong might come to nothing. For Chenger''s sake, for Guanzhong''s sake, I want to go to Heishan. "


    Yang Xiu''s cheek twitched.


    Facing Zhang Xiu''s mouth, he couldn''t persuade Zhang Xiu at all, so he had to look at Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong hit it, hit it, but when it came to his mouth, he swallowed it. He was the first person to follow Zhang Xiu. He knew Zhang Xiu''s temperament better than Yang Xiu and Sima Yi.


    Pang Tong thought about it and said, "the Lord wants to go. I can''t stop him. However, before my Lord went, I suggested that he arrange the royal guards to inquire about Zhang Yan in Heishan. Find out Zhang Yan''s situation, plan and move, and then go to Heishan. After all, Zhang Yan''s envoys just came here and didn''t say a specific time. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Shiyuan knows me!"


    Yang Xiu and Sima Yi were surprised. They did not expect that Pang Tonghui would support Zhang Xiu in the end. But when they thought about it, they both understood that Pang Tong''s words were the last resort, and they could only plan and then move.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "mobilize the royal guards and inquire about Zhang Yan''s information in Heishan carefully."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answered and said, "please give me two days. After two days, I will collect detailed information."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Pang Tong, Yang Xiu and others had no hope of persuading them, so they had to stay in the army to arrange dispatch and deal with what might happen next.


    When the royal guards moved quickly, Zhang Yan''s envoy returned and told Ren Qiong the news. When Ren Qiong told Zhang Yan the news, Zhang Yan also laughed.


    Zhang Yan said: "Sir, this embroidery is really bold. I sent someone to invite him, and he really dares to come to Heishan. I can''t wait to see Zhang Xiu. "


    Ren Qiong said: "Zhang Xiu knows that there is a certain risk in Heishan, but she still dares to come. This man is really bold and extraordinary. "


    Zhang Yan said: "it''s not a matter of two days for the Huns to wreak havoc on the Central Plains. But in Zhang Xiu''s hands, the Huns died clean, and there was no one left. "


    "Cao Cao has always been very powerful in sweeping all sides of the country. However, Cao Cao was also defeated by Zhang Xiu, and he has been promoted to the rank of nobility for many times. Now, he even takes the imperial court''s imperial edict to worship Zhang Xiu as Taiwei. "


    "Yuan Shaoxiong lives in the north. We fought with Yuan Shao several times, and each time we were defeated. But Yuan Shao''s army, in Zhang Xiu''s hands, suffered a heavy loss and lost his general at the expense of his troops. "


    "In the early years, the yellow scarf bandits made trouble, and we took advantage of the situation. At that time, we gathered in Heishan. The forces of the Heishan army were as many as five or six hundred thousand."


    "Now, it''s more and more decadent."


    "It''s getting weaker and weaker."


    Zhang Yan said: "let''s look at the track of Zhang Xiu''s rise. He was once a member of the Xiliang army. When his uncle was there, Zhang Xiu was unknown. His uncle died of illness, and Zhang Xiu entered Nanyang, just two years or so, the strength of the crown Jue Guanzhong, famous. We can''t compete with such people. "


    "In terms of courage, I''m far behind this man."


    "On the merits of the war, it is not enough."


    "Sometimes when you think about it, my adoptive father handed over the black mountain army to me, as many as hundreds of thousands of people. At that time, it was not difficult to sweep Jizhou, but I missed it. "


    Zhang Yan said: "my means are still a lot worse. I don''t have the means, and I don''t act ruthlessly enough. But it''s already like this. It can only be like this. I can''t force it. "After hearing this, Ren Qiong said with a smile, "it''s because of such a lord that I''m willing to be loyal."


    "Ha


    When Zhang Yan heard the speech, she laughed at herself.


    Ren Qiong''s elegant face, with a look of remembrance, said: "when my lord promoted me, I was a poor scholar, worried about my livelihood all day."


    "I would have been killed long ago if I had been a lord and a man of character, regardless of the life and death of the people. I''m afraid there won''t be tens of thousands of people in this black mountain. "


    "Thanks to the Lord."


    "Yuan Shao always wanted to annex us and the people of Heishan, but only when the LORD raised his hand and the people responded, could he resist the threat of Yuan Shao."


    Ren Qiong said: "Yuan Shao has always attached great importance to people of noble families, but he doesn''t look up to us. Since the LORD fought against Yuan Shao, he has not been threatened by Yuan Shao, and we are still standing firmly in Heishan. This is the credit of the Lord. "


    Zhang Yan stroked the stubble under her jaw and said, "Sir, your words will make me proud."


    Ren Qiong said, "I''m just telling the truth."


    Zhang Yan zhengse way: "Zhang Xiu has great courage, also see how he talks with us after going up the mountain? I hope that Zhang Xiu can be entrusted by us. "


    Ren Qiong said: "wait and see."


    Zhang Yan said: "Sir, arrange people to closely monitor the movement at the foot of the mountain. Once Zhang Xiu climbs the mountain, he will report at any time."


    "I understand


    Ren Qiong bowed his hand, turned and stepped down.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from the hall.


    But it was a child, bouncing through the door.


    Children are seven or eight years old, born with a tiger head and a tiger brain. A pair of big black eyes, very beautiful. After he entered, he saw Zhang Yan, opened his hand and said, "Dad, hold, hold!"


    The child''s name is Zhang Fang, Zhang Yan''s only son.


    Zhang Yan saw tiger head and tiger brain''s son, with a bright smile on her rough face. He opened his arms, and when his son came near, he picked him up. There was a big smile on the rough cheek.


    Her son''s mother passed away shortly after Zhang Fanggang was born.


    Zhang Yan is both a father and a mother. A handful of excrement and urine bring up the child. As the child grew up, Zhang Yan began to think about his son. Although he was the leader of the black mountain army, he was not an official appointed by the government and had a bad family background.


    Zhang Yan''s family background is not good, but he hopes that his son can have a good family background.


    This is one of the reasons why Zhang Yan is so competitive.


    He didn''t want to go around fighting.


    He hopes to give his son a good background, and Zhang Xiu''s subordinates are a good choice. By then, his son will have a good family.


    Zhang Yan holds the child, teases the son to play, on the face is brimming with the father''s smile, is joyful.

 Chapter 499

    A day is fleeting.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu''s army account in a hurry. After seeing Zhang Xiu, he handed in the latest information.


    This is the most complete information collected by the royal guards.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and scanned it quickly. In the letter, there were Zhang Yan''s behavior, and Zhang Yan''s family situation, which recorded the affairs of Zhang Yan and her son Zhang Fang.


    Zhang Xiu sees Zhang Yan''s son, especially the letter mentions that Zhang Yan dotes on her son. She wants to give all the best to her son so that he can have a good environment.


    Seeing the news, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    This is a breakthrough.


    Zhang Xiu wrote down the story of Zhang Yan''s son and continued to read it.


    According to the information in the letter, Zhang Yan''s ability to become the leader of the black mountain army depends more on her personal charm and the ability to govern the local area. When it comes to the ability to March and fight, it is actually a little poor.


    The main plan is Ren Qiong, the counselor beside Zhang Yan.


    The information inquired by the royal guards is very detailed.


    After reading all the news, Zhang Xiu had a clear idea.


    After reading all the news, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, according to the information sent back. Yuan Shao''s army is a few days away from the county seat of dangyin county


    Wang Yue said, "five days at most!"


    "Five days!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "time is very urgent. We can''t delay any longer."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "send the order to Deng Zhan and Shi a, let them go to Heishan with you. This time, only the four of us will go, and we don''t need the rest to accompany us. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately sent a messenger.


    When Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue leave the barracks, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Zhi are all worried.


    But they can''t.


    Less than three hours later, Zhang Xiu and his party arrived at the foot of Heishan near dangyin county. When Zhang Xiuyi arrived at the foot of the mountain, he reported his name directly.


    Not long after, the black mountain soldiers came out and took Zhang Xiu to the mountain.


    It''s a long way to climb all the way.


    Zhang Xiu did not know how many detours she had made and how many rivers and valleys she had passed. According to Zhang Xiu''s estimation, it took at least two hours to arrive at the location where the black mountain army was stationed.


    It''s a valley with lots of people.


    The people are farming and self-sufficient.


    In her eyes, Zhang Xiu felt like a paradise. After all, it is too far away from the secular world to walk the mountain road for nearly two hours. Even though Zhang Xiu has been trained, he has made some marks along the way so as to find his way, but under such circumstances, it may be quite difficult for him to get out of the mountain again.


    After all, the terrain on the mountain is too complicated.


    By this time, it was getting late, approaching the evening.


    Heishan army, camp.


    The torch has been lit.


    A torch, crackling burning, disperse the night, drive away the darkness, the whole camp as bright as day.


    Led by the soldiers, Zhang Xiu came to the hall.


    When Zhang Xiu entered the mountain, someone had already reported back, so Zhang Yan had already got the news. He was waiting in the hall. When he saw Zhang Xiu entering, his face was stunned.


    Zhang Xiu is too young!


    He knew that Zhang Xiu was young.


    However, at the moment, Zhang Xiu is in her early twenties. Such people even defeated Cao Cao and Yuan Shao and killed the Huns.


    In particular, it is said that Zhang Xiu is a master of martial arts.


    But Zhang Xiu was thin, without a strong physique, and was not a man with a round waist and broad arms. Under such circumstances, he had some doubts about whether the news he got was true or false.


    Zhang Yan got up to meet her. As soon as she took two steps, she suddenly speeded up and said, "Zhang Xiu, take my fist."


    He clenched his hands and punched directly.


    In the moment of Zhang Yan''s hand, Wang Yue and others want to hand, but Zhang Xiu stops them. Zhang Xiu stands with a negative hand and quietly waits for Zhang Yan to approach. When Zhang Yan''s fist is less than a foot away from Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu makes an instant move.


    He palmed his right hand, raised it and hit it up.


    "Pa!"


    The palm of the hand hit the lower edge of Zhang Yan''s arm. Under the impact of force, Zhang Yan''s fist lost its sight.


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu hands into a fist, in Zhang Yan body a stagnant moment, hard hit.


    "Pa!"


    Although the strength of the fists converged a lot when they hit Zhang Yan''s ribs, the impact of the fists also made Zhang Yan''s ribs numb and could not help kicking back.


    Originally, Zhang Yan did not belong to the burly shape, is a lean person.


    Zhang Yan has always believed that she is powerful.


    But at the moment, he found that the strength he relied on was not enough in front of Zhang Xiu. When he pedals backward, Zhang Xiu strides forward and makes an arrow step in front of Zhang Yan. With a wrong foot, she pedals on Zhang Yan''s backward heel.In a flash, Zhang Yan was unstable and fell to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu dropped her fist and stopped three inches above Zhang Yan''s cheek. With the strength of Zhang Xiu, it''s easy to kill Zhang Yan.


    Zhang Xiu clapped her hands and stood still and said, "Zhang Tongling''s reception is unique. Zhang Xiu has learned it."


    After Zhang Xiu stood up, Zhang Yan stood up with a bitter face. He looked at Zhang Xiu standing still and asked: "dare to ask Tai Wei Zhang, you just gave me a hand and used several percent of your strength?"


    "Less than sixty percent!"


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "if I fight with all my strength, the first blow will be under your rib. The injury under your rib is not numbness, but direct rib fracture and internal organs rupture."


    Brush!


    Zhang Yan looks shocked.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s strength was so powerful.


    Zhang Yan said in a deep voice: "I have heard that Dian Wei, a fierce general under Cao Cao, can capture tigers and leopards alive, and even kill wild boars and other beasts. I don''t know if Taiwei Zhang ever had a fight with Dianwei. Who is higher and who is lower among you? "


    Although Zhang Yan is in Heishan, she is very clear about the news from the outside world.


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said: "speaking up, I have had two fights with Dian Wei. For the first time, Cao Cao sent troops to Nanyang County. Dian Wei and I once fought archery. "


    "At that time, he and I competed in archery before the two armies, and I defeated Dianwei with archery."


    "The last time, more than a month ago, I went to Xudu to meet the emperor. I went to Cao Cao''s army and fought with Xia Houdun, Xu Chu and Dian Wei, the powerful generals under Cao Cao."


    "Whether it is XiahouDun, or xuchu, or Dianwei you mentioned, they are all defeated by me."


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "this is also in front of countless Cao soldiers. At that time, countless people cheered for Xu Chu and others. In the end, they were defeated. "


    "Hiss!"


    Zhang Yan couldn''t help taking a breath, and her complexion changed again and again.


    His eyes were even more astonished.


    It''s terrible that Zhang Xiu, with such a figure, can defeat Dian Wei.


    Gudong!


    After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Zhang Yan converged all the temptations to Zhang Xiu. He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and let Zhang Xiu enter.


    After the host and guest took their seats, Zhang Yan changed his mind and stopped talking about martial arts. He said: "Yuan Shao''s army went south to Hanoi County, and Yuan Shao''s army was strong with 100000 soldiers. Such an army would be difficult for general Zhang to resist. Zhang Yan is not talented and is willing to make an alliance with Zhang Taiwei. I don''t know. Does Taiwei Zhang have this idea? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "commander Zhang wants to make an alliance with this general. I don''t know. What are your conditions?"


    Zhang Yan said: "the conditions are very simple. I, Zhang Yan, left Heishan to be the prefect of Hanoi. In addition, I, Zhang Yan, have appointed all the officials in Hanoi county. At that time, I will move all the 100000 people in Heishan to Hanoi county. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed.


    Loud laughter reverberated in the hall. As a result, Zhang Yan''s face was slightly unhappy. He thought that Zhang Xiu did it on purpose, so he said in a deep voice: "why does Zhang Taiwei laugh?"

 Chapter 500

    After laughing, Zhang Xiu said: "the reason why I laugh is that Zhang Tongling''s idea is too naive. You live in Heishan. It''s in the middle of nowhere. It''s not easy to levy, so you can have a foothold. "


    "When you come out of Heishan, you want to occupy Hanoi county and become a kingdom. I can''t control you, but when you get to Hanoi County, it will hold me back. "


    "According to the situation mentioned by commander Zhang, it must be worse than it is now."


    "If so, why agree?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "it''s hard. I''ve lost my mind. I don''t insist on the good situation. Instead, I look for the worse situation. I don''t understand the logic."


    Zhang Yan''s eyes narrowed.


    He admitted that Zhang Xiu''s statement was reasonable.


    But what he said just now is also a test for Zhang Xiu to see how she answers.


    Zhang Yan continued: "according to Zhang Taiwei, although Hanoi county is a state, it is better than losing to Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao sent 100000 soldiers to the South and was about to enter Hanoi Prefecture. With Yuan Shao''s troops, Zhang Taiwei would be hard to resist. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered, "Yuan Shao has an army of 100000. What''s my fear? Now I have more than 80000 troops living in dangyin county. "


    "There is not much difference in the strength of the two sides."


    "I''m not afraid of Yuan Shao!"


    "What''s more, Zhang Xiu has never lost in fighting with heaven, earth and people. As the saying goes, "it''s a lot of fun to fight with others. Yuan Shao''s killing with his troops is my chance to fight Yuan Shao."


    "Such an opportunity should not be missed."


    Zhang Xiu said: "when Zhang Tongling was in Heishan, he only saw the risk of Yuan Shao going south, but he forgot that once I beat Yuan Shao, the benefits would be unparalleled."


    "Even if my army did not invade Jizhou, even if I did not get half an inch of land in this battle. However, I can defeat Yuan Shao. Who dares to despise me, Zhang Xiu


    Zhang Xiu said: "the prestige gained through this war can''t be underestimated."


    Zhang Yan was surprised.


    Fight with heaven, fight with earth, fight with people, it''s endless fun.


    What a Zhang Xiu!


    Zhang Yan doesn''t have such a disposition. In her heart, Zhang Yan hopes to live a stable life. Even though Zhang Yan does not want to live in Heishan, he does not want to live in Heishan.


    Heishan, after all, is too remote.


    Zhang Yan said in a deep voice: "if you and I do not form an alliance, I will fall to Yuan Shao''s side. General Zhang, with his own strength, will be extremely difficult to fight against Yuan Shao and my black mountain army."


    "Wrong!"


    Zhang Xiu answers again.


    Zhang Yan said, "why?"


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said: "Hanoi county is governed by Hu Zhao. Countless people in Heishan go down the mountain and many people leave one after another. It shows that the people in Heishan recognize Hu Zhao."


    "Whether it''s the people in Heishan or the soldiers under Zhang Yan, they have formed a point of view that our army under Zhang Xiu is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness."


    "Because Hu Zhao is my man."


    "But what about Yuan Shao?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "looking back at Yuan Shao, I wish I could get rid of the black mountain army. The Montenegrin army fought with Yuan Shao many times, and countless Montenegrin soldiers died in Yuan Shao''s hands. "


    "The Heishan army was hostile to Yuan Shao."


    "With this premise, if commander Zhang wants to unite with Yuan Shao, I''m afraid there will be opposition within the Montenegrin army."


    "Even the main generals are willing to listen to you. But the soldiers of the black mountain army at the bottom, who are influenced by the people of black mountain, certainly think that commander Zhang is not benevolent. "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "commander Zhang can occupy Heishan and win the support of the people. What he relies on is your benevolence and righteousness, and your way of dealing with people. Will the people and soldiers still support you once the foundation of your life is lost? "


    Brush!


    Zhang Yan''s face changed suddenly.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu would say such a thing.


    It was unexpected.


    As a matter of fact, Zhang Yan also knows the foundation of her life. He restrained the generals under his command with virtue and morality, awed them with strength, and influenced the officers and soldiers of Montenegrin. Therefore, countless people supported him and were willing to stand on his side.


    They have a grudge against Yuan Shao.


    If Zhang Yan turns to Yuan Shao, many of his generals will not agree.


    Seeing the change of Zhang Yan''s manner, Zhang Xiu knew that she had moved Zhang Yan and continued: "besides, commander Zhang said that he wanted to control Hanoi County just now. I didn''t mean to belittle him."


    "When it comes to local governance, can you compare with Hu Zhao?"


    "Hu Zhao took office for a few months, which made Hanoi Prefecture Dazhi, and the people of all counties dare not make trouble. I''m afraid that if Zhang Tongling was the prefect of Hanoi County, countless people would rise up and even flee to Heishan again. "


    "Would you like that?"


    "What Zhang Tongling is good at is fighting on the battlefield. To let you govern the place is to abandon the essence and pursue the end. "Zhang xiudao said: "what''s more, as far as I know, most of the time, Ren Qiong, your counselor, handles the affairs of commander Zhang in the mountains. He handles government affairs for you. You really don''t know much about government affairs. "


    Zhang Yan''s face changed again and again.


    As Zhang Xiu said, his ability to govern the place is very ordinary.


    Let him govern Hanoi county. Maybe a few months later, Hanoi County, which had just returned to stability, will be in turmoil again.


    Zhang Xiu sat upright, looking solemn, and continued: "of course, if you don''t toss about in your life, it''s really boring. The meaning of life lies in tossing. Whether it''s good or bad, it''s going to be a toss. "


    "Zhang Tongling can choose to toss about."


    "After you die, even if it''s a flood, you can''t see it."


    "But Zhang Tongling is not alone."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "commander Zhang''s youngest son is under ten years old. It''s time to be cared for and taught. With Zhang Tongling''s little knowledge, I''m afraid that to teach his son is to teach him a little bad martial arts, and there is nothing else. "


    When it comes to her son, Zhang Yan looks solemn.


    His son is his father.


    That''s what he attaches most importance to. He is both a father and a mother. It''s not easy for him to bring up his son.


    Zhang Yan wants her son to be promising.


    Seeing the change of Zhang Yan''s look, Zhang Xiu knew it was a breakthrough and continued: "in Heishan, your son is a bandit. You, Zhang Yan, have been appointed as the emperor, and have been granted the imperial edict to be an official. "


    "But are you an official?"


    "How many people in the world regard you as an official of the imperial court?"


    "Hardly!"


    "Everyone looks at you, Zhang Yan. You are black mountain army in name, but you are black mountain bandits in fact. You are regarded as black mountain bandits. Whether it''s Yuan Shao, or Cao Cao, or the princes in the court. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you can deceive yourself and say that you are an official appointed by the imperial court. But what about your son? Do you want your son to be despised by the world when he grows up and live all day in Heishan without seeing the outside world


    "Zhang Tongling fought everywhere and saw the outside world."


    "But not your son."


    "His life has just begun. Do you want him to hide in the black hills all his life? "


    Zhang Xiu''s words became more and more sharp, saying: "parents hope their children can go further and live better. It''s the same with me. I''m just a new father. I understand Zhang Tongling''s thoughts and feelings. "


    "Enough!"


    Zhang Yan gave a big drink.


    He clenched his fist with anger in his eyes. It''s not Zhang Xiu''s words, it''s his incompetence. He''s more resentful about his family background. He wants to give his son a better environment.


    He wants his son to be promising.


    This is Zhang Yan''s obsession.

 Chapter 501

    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    The laughter was not big, but it was ironic and clearly spread out to Zhang Yan''s ears.


    Zhang Yan bit her teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "I smile that you Zhang Yanming are a kind father. You Zhang Yanming want to give your son a better environment. However, for the sake of his power, he was unwilling to give his son a good birth. You seem to like your son. You seem to think about it for your son. After all, you are selfish. You are a father in vain


    "No!"


    Zhang Yan raised his head and tossed the ground in a voice: "I, Zhang Yan, am willing to give Fang er everything."


    Ren Qiong frowned in his eyes.


    He is aware of the strength of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu clearly judges Zhang Yan''s weakness, and then makes a breakthrough. However, Ren Qiong did not speak. He sat down quietly and watched the development of the situation.


    After all, Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiong have no idea of embroidery. Just try Zhang Xiu and see what she says?


    Zhang Xiu glances at Ren Qiong. He knows that Ren Qiong should have seen through his words, but he doesn''t. And Zhang Yan is a person in the Bureau, so she is influenced by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "since Zhang Tongling is willing to give his son a better way out, why should he stay in Heishan? Do you want your son to bear the name of a thief? "


    Zhang Yan said, "I have no way out. I can''t find a way out."


    "I have!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "as long as Zhang Tongling is willing to submit to me, Zhang Xiu, whether it''s your soldiers or your son, I can settle down."


    On hearing this, Zhang Yan suddenly woke up.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu, he was surprised.


    Now it''s time to surrender him?


    Zhang Yan''s heart is very clear, Zhang Xiu came to Heishan, not to plot an alliance, but to recruit him.


    Either Yuan Shao or Cao Cao once sent envoys to solicit Zhang Yan and let him go out of Heishan. But without exception, they were all rejected by Zhang Yan.


    Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiu talk, the feeling has not said anything, suddenly, Zhang Xiu turned to surrender his things, and this conversion has no sense of disobedience, or with his son.


    Zhang Yan took a deep breath, calmed herself down and said, "Zhang Taiwei, how can you give Fang er a better way out?"


    Zhang xiudao: "two aspects."


    Zhang Yan said: "which two aspects?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the first is to give children the best reading environment."


    "In the world, in troubled times, generals fight for supremacy, which can make them famous. But there are very few real generals, after all. Most of them can''t be great


    "The best way for your son to have a good way out is to study."


    "Seven or eight year olds, it''s time to read."


    "Chang''an, under the jurisdiction of my official, invited Yang Biao, a famous official of the current Dynasty. He has arrived in Chang''an and is building Chang''an Academy. Before long, they will recruit students to teach them. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "as long as Zhang Tongling is obedient to me, then your son can enter Chang''an Academy."


    "I think Zhang Tongling should know Yang Biao. In addition, there are famous people like Sima Fang. Even my teacher Pang Degong of Jingzhou and my father-in-law Huang Chengyan will enter the Academy. "


    "It can be said that there are all celebrities in the Academy."


    "They are all learned people."


    "As long as your son enters the Academy, and under the guidance of many famous scholars, he will graduate from the Academy in the future. Even if he is dull, he will be able to achieve something."


    "This is the first aspect I mentioned," Zhang said


    Hoo!!


    Zhang Yan''s breath was suddenly rapid.


    Zhang Fang is his lifeblood.


    Zhang Yan would like to give Zhang Fang all his best, so that Zhang Fang can grow up well.


    As an ordinary person, although Zhang Yan is literate, he is not from a good family and has never met a famous teacher. He knew that Yang Biao, Sima Fang and others were all famous people in the world.


    To follow these people to learn is what countless people want.


    Zhang Yan is also willing.


    Zhang Yan''s heart has been moved, he continued: "the second?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "second, it''s Zhang Tong who leads you here. Children''s learning is their own business. However, if parents can provide a better environment and background, they will be better. "


    "Zhang Tongling is good at martial arts. He can also lead soldiers to fight."


    "You surrender to me, fight to kill the enemy, make contributions, and strive to create a better environment for your children."


    "For example, with the same talent, your son and other people''s sons are under the same conditions. You have a high official rank and a good family. You can help your son a lot. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "but now that you are in Heishan, it''s really hard to help your son. Only when we go out of Heishan and act as an official of the imperial court in an open and aboveboard manner is the most suitable one. ""It''s the same with officials."


    "All over the world, countless princes take their own positions and occupy one side. They appoint themselves and think they are great."


    "It''s all self deception."


    "Without the appointment of the imperial court, it is against the law and not recognized by the people of the world. Why I went to Xudu in person is to get the approval and appointment of the imperial court. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "now, I am a great Han Taiwei, appointed by the imperial court. Who dares to say what?"


    After listening, Zhang Yan''s heart became alive.


    Before that, although he wanted to give his son the best conditions, in fact, there was no good way, no opportunity, and no clear idea.


    Zhang Xiu is different.


    Without Zhang Yan''s thinking, Zhang Xiu gives Zhang Yan the way to go.


    Everything was arranged for him.


    Zhang Yan''s eyes narrowed and said, "you speak so well. What if you go back?"


    Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart.


    It''s done.


    When Zhang Yan said this, she agreed to surrender, but she still lacked the last fire.


    Zhang Xiu zhengse way: "say a sentence not to listen to, in order to deal with you Zhang Yan, lose my Zhang Xiu reputation, it is not worth it. I, Zhang Xiu, do what I say and never do anything against my promise. "


    "Gan Ning, the general under my command, is a bandit. He is called Jinfan bandit. Today, Gan Ning is in charge of the fierce tiger army and is one of the most important generals in the army. "


    "Gan Ning, I can hold you, how can I not hold you?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s more, it involves tens of thousands of black mountain people. If I turn my back, how can I win the trust of the people so that they can live and work in peace and contentment under my rule? "


    "Of course, if you obey the law."


    "If you are self righteous and regard the law as a joke, you will challenge the bottom line of the official wantonly. Then, I will punish you. I can''t turn a blind eye to it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is my official attitude."


    Zhang Yan takes a deep breath. She has a balance and an idea in her heart.


    However, Zhang Yan said, "if I submit to you, how can you resettle me, how can you resettle the army of Heishan, and how can you resettle tens of thousands of people in Heishan?"


    This is Zhang Yan''s worry.


    He is not alone.


    He represents tens of thousands of people in Heishan. Although the rest of Changshan, Zhongshan, Shangdang and other places in the Taihang Mountains, as well as the rest of the Heishan army are occupied, they are not under Zhang Yan''s jurisdiction. Although they belong to the same vein, Zhang Yan can''t manage them.


    Zhang Yan was only under the jurisdiction of the Heishan army in dangyin county.


    He''s responsible for these people.

 Chapter 502

    Zhang Xiu looked confident and indifferent on her face, and said: "the problem that Zhang Tongling is considering is not difficult."


    "First, if commander Zhang is subordinated to his official, I can form a black mountain army, with commander Zhang as the main general to command the black mountain army. In this way, the soldiers of the Montenegrin army will not object. "


    "Second, tens of thousands of people in the mountains, who are willing to stay in the mountains, will continue to stay in the mountains. If he is willing to leave Heishan and go to Hanoi County, my official will arrange Hu Zhao to resettle the people in the mountains, so that the people can have their own land instead of farming without land. "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "in this way, commander Zhang can rest assured?"


    Zhang Yan said: "Zhang Taiwei is considerate. Zhang Yan admires him. Zhang Yan is willing to work for Zhang Taiwei. "


    With that, he stood up to salute Zhang Xiu and said, "humble Zhang Yan, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Xiu happily said: "with the participation of the black mountain army, it is even easier to defeat Yuan Shao."


    The Montenegrin army is a wonder force.


    Yuan Shao knew that there was a black mountain army in dangyin County, but Yuan Shao had a grudge against the black mountain army, and he was on one side and didn''t submit to anyone. Yuan Shao might not be able to guard against the black mountain army. Because over the years, Zhang Yan''s Heishan army is unique and has never been subordinated to anyone.


    Zhang Yan said: "Lord, I''ll call all the generals in the army and tell them about surrender."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhang Yan, are you sure that all the generals under your command are willing to surrender with you?"


    Zhang Yan heard the speech, there is a trace of hesitation.


    Zhang Yan is willing to surrender, but among his generals, there may not be anyone willing to go down the mountain to be restrained. After all, no one is in charge of the black mountain, and life is more carefree.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Yan''s expression, she had a judgment in her heart.


    Obviously, there are some people under Zhang Yan''s command who don''t want to.


    In other words, Zhang Yan is not sure she can convince everyone.


    Zhang Yan thought about it and said, "don''t worry, my Lord. I will persuade everyone to submit to my Lord."


    "Hard!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head.


    Zhang Yan heard Zhang Xiu''s words and asked, "what is the master going to do?"


    Since Zhang Xiu was subordinated, Zhang Yan was no longer the leader of the Heishan army. Even if he was the commander of the black mountain army, he still had to obey Zhang Xiu''s arrangement in front of Zhang Xiu.


    This is Zhang Yan''s consciousness.


    He would not think that he had been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, or that he was once the commander of the black mountain army.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and she thought about it in her heart. A moment later, she said, "once you have announced your surrender, I think there are roughly three possibilities."


    "The first is that all people are submissive and willing to accept reorganization."


    "Second, on the spot, some people stood up against it. They did not want to leave the country and wanted to stay in it."


    "Third, there was no objection on the spot, but secretly wanted to do it."


    Zhang Xiu''s heart was clear, and she said that she might encounter three situations. She said, "these three situations must be dealt with. My plan is like this..."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said the countermeasures.


    After explaining all the things, Zhang Xiu asked, "Zhang Yan, what do you think?"


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Zhang Yan said with emotion: "my Lord is considerate and far-reaching. Zhang Yan admires him. With the master''s plan, all problems will be solved. "


    Ren Qiong sits at the bottom. He looks at Zhang Xiu with emotion.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu.


    There is no empty man under the fame!


    In other words, Ren Qiong, after thinking for a long time, may be able to give the corresponding countermeasures. However, in such a short period of time, it is still quite difficult for Ren Qiong to solve this problem.


    Zhang Xiu said: "then call all the generals to the hall to discuss business."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan summoned all the generals to convey the order. At this time, it is still Zhang Yan sitting on the theme, but Zhang Xiu''s position, moved to the left side of Zhang Yan, not on the left and right sides.


    It wasn''t long before the generals of the black mountain army entered.


    Some of these people are dark and burly, some of them are of medium build, some of them are thin But without exception, they are all from the bottom, and they are all transformed from ordinary people.


    All of you are seated.


    Everyone''s eyes, swept Zhang Yan, finally fell on Zhang Xiu, some accident.


    They don''t know Zhang Xiu.


    In fact, the news that Zhang Yan sent someone to invite Zhang xiulai didn''t come out. Only Zhang Yan, Ren Qiong and the envoys who went to send the message knew it. The rest of the people didn''t know it.


    Zhang Yan stood up, pointed to Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on one side, and said, "this man is Zhang Xiu, the Taiwei. He climbs the mountain to surrender himself. Zhang Taiwei was full of sincerity. The commander decided to lead the army out of Heishan and submit to Zhang Taiwei. "


    Boom!!


    This remark shocked countless people.


    Zhang Xiu is here.


    Zhang Xiu is so bold!


    The generals in the army, in particular, were also unexpected. Because Zhang Yan does not belong to anyone all the time, he is alone and dominates in Heishan. But now, Zhang Yan has to submit to Zhang Xiu, which is surprising.One after another, they talked about things.


    Some people, however, have fierce faces.


    Suddenly one of the generals stood up. With a cold face, he objected loudly: "commander, general pan Youfu objected."


    Pan Youfu is a burly man with a slightly obscene face. He has a pair of triangular eyes, showing cunning and ruthlessness.


    He is one of the chief generals in the army.


    Zhang Yan asked, "what are you against?"


    Pan Youfu said in a voice: "we are not short of food, clothing and weapons. We have a good life. Why should we submit to Zhang Xiu? "


    "Zhang Tongling, in my opinion, Zhang Xiu dares to climb the mountain. That''s his own death."


    "Despicable proposal, killed Zhang Xiu."


    "As long as we kill Zhang Xiu, we can make Guanzhong chaos immediately. Then, the commander took us out of Heishan and captured Guanzhong. In this way, the commander can become the leader of Guanzhong. "


    Pan Youfu''s eyes are full of greed.


    When Zhang Yan heard this, she sneered.


    The leader of Guanzhong?


    Any dog or cat can be the leader of Guanzhong. It''s too worthless. What''s more, even if Zhang Yan''s strength is not weak, she does not have enough courage to compete with Zhang Xiu''s army.


    He is not bewitched by Pan Youfu.


    Zhang Yan didn''t open her mouth, but Zhang Xiu stood up in no hurry. He went to the hall, not far from Pan Youfu, looked around the people, and said in a loud voice: "I Zhang Xiu dare to go up the mountain, I''m not afraid to be killed."


    "You Pan Youfu, if you want to replace me. Now, I''ll give you a chance. "


    "Kill me, you have a chance."


    "I''m standing in front of you, dare you?"


    Zhang Xiu''s words, with provocation, are more thorough, arrogant and overbearing: "whether in my army, or in this black mountain army, the strong are respected. Just don''t know, you pan Youfu, dare to attack me? "


    "Why not?"


    Pan Youfu bit his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you asked for it. If you don''t go to heaven, there is no way to hell. Now, you''re going to die on your own, and I''ll help you. "


    "Sonorous!"


    Pan Youfu''s hand is on the hilt of his sword. When the long sword comes out of its sheath, he immediately takes it out.


    "Kill


    Pan Youfu made a direct move.


    In Pan Youfu''s hand, Zhang Xiu''s hand is also on the Longquan sword. With a clang sound, the sword came out of its sheath, and a cold light flashed away in the hall.


    Zhang Xiu figure before channeling, twinkling of an eye has reached pan Youfu''s body.


    The edge of the sword, never move forward.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the sword penetrates into pan Youfu''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand was strong, and she drew her sword out of the sheath. He raised his foot and kicked pan Youfu on his chest. In an instant, pan Youfu''s body flew back directly, and his chest spattered with blood.


    "Bang!"


    After falling to the ground, pan Youfu''s body struggled twice and lost his breath.


    It''s already a dead body.


    He gave his hand to Zhang Xiu. Without touching Zhang Xiu''s clothes, he was killed and fell into a pool of blood.


    WOW!!


    At the moment, there was an uproar in the hall.


    Pan Youfu is dead!


    Pan Youfu died like this.


    One by one, when they looked at Zhang Xiu, there was fear in their eyes. But in some people''s eyes, there is a grim look. At this time, someone stood up again and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel that you killed pan Youfu directly."


    Zhang Xiu said, "who are you?"


    "My name is Chen Qi, Zhang Xiu. You killed our people. You can''t leave Heishan," he said


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, can''t help laughing.


    There was no fear in the laughter.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Chen Qi snorted, gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, what are you laughing at?"

 Chapter 503

    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold and solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "what I''m laughing at is that you are also the people who follow Zhang Yan. Why don''t you have half faith to speak of. People speak of the black mountain army, and they will practice what they say. They will not bully the people or kill the innocent indiscriminately. They are well-known heroes. Now it seems that they are a group of soft eggs without eggs. "


    Chen Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you''ve been deceiving people too much. If you don''t make clear what you said just now, none of the people in this hall today will spare you. "


    "I''m Zhang Xiu. Why are you afraid of it?"


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and said, "what did pan Youfu say just now? He said he would kill Ben Jiang. I give him a chance, but it''s perfectly normal for him to be killed. "


    "Those who kill people will always be killed."


    "Pan Youfu wants to kill me. He''s not as good as others."


    "You''re angry."


    "Is Pan Youfu allowed to kill me and Zhang Xiu not allowed to? If so, what else to contend with. I''ll just stand here and let him chop. "


    "Why so complicated."


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and threw her voice to the ground: "I, Zhang Xiu, am here. If Zhang Yan is willing to submit to me, she trusts me; if she is willing to follow me, she believes me. Those of you who do not want to follow may leave. Of course, you can come and kill me. Because if you kill me, you will have a chance to enter Guanzhong. But since he has no ability to be killed, it is also a very normal thing. "


    When Chen Qi heard this, he was silent.


    He agreed with Zhang Xiu and thought that Zhang Xiu''s words were correct.


    Earlier, his anger rose.


    At the moment, Chen Qi clenched his teeth and said: "OK, OK, OK, you Zhang Xiu dare to accept the challenge. Now, I challenge you. Zhang Xiu, there is no life or death under the sword. I will avenge pan Youfu. "


    Zhang Xiu, holding the Longquan sword, said in a deep voice: "Chen Qi, you are still a man of integrity when you say these words. I''m not going to kill you just now. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t mean to kill this kind of person who had one muscle and was easy to persuade.


    Because this kind of person is easy to accept.


    "I don''t know until I kill you!"


    "Kill


    Chen Qi pulls out his sword and rushes to Zhang Xiu. But Chen Qi''s action, in Zhang Xiu''s view, is completely looking for abuse, the strength is too weak.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t evade at all. When Chen Qi rushes in front of him, she puts up her sword and blocks the knife.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu raised her legs.


    "Pa!"


    A foot, then fiercely pedal on Chen Qi''s chest. Under the impact of the powerful force, Chen Qi''s body just like a shell, rose from the ground and flew out directly.


    Bang!!


    Next, Chen Qi''s body plummets down at the door of the hall.


    Chen Qi fell to the ground, the sword fell, chest bursts of pain. All over the body, very uncomfortable. He struggled to stand up, looked at Zhang Xiu, said: "I lost!"


    Chen Qi went straight back to the table.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu with complicated eyes. He could feel that Zhang Xiu had just killed him with a sword. However, from the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu didn''t mean to kill him. She just kicked him and gave him a chance to survive.


    Chen Qi is not a person who does not know where to go.


    At this time, he stopped talking.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a loud voice: "everyone, I''m Zhang Xiu here. Those of you who are dissatisfied with me can challenge me. I''m Zhang Xiu. Anyone who comes is welcome! "


    With Zhang Xiu''s words, there was a look of awe on each face.


    They can see that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are so strong that it is impossible for anyone to be Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    Go up to challenge, it''s just looking for abuse.


    After looking around, Zhang Xiu saw that no one was against it any more. He knew that the first step had been taken.


    They''ve been intimidated.


    Of course, there must be some of these people who are unconvinced. For these people, Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry. He has many ways.


    Back at the table, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Yan and said with a smile, "since there is no one to oppose and no one to leave, it means that everyone supports submission. Zhang Yan, get ready to drink. Today I''m drunk


    Zhang Yan nodded and immediately ordered her to go down.


    After a while, some attendants rushed in, quickly brought the meat and wine, and placed them in front of the generals.


    Zhang Xiu raised her glass and offered a toast to everyone.


    Zhang Yan got up and agreed.


    After the banquet, Zhang Yan introduced Zhang Xiu one by one. In front of everyone, Zhang Xiu went to propose a toast. A circle down, Zhang Xiu has been dozens of cups.


    After walking around, Zhang Xiu also has an impression of Zhang Yan''s department. With Zhang Yan''s reminder, when Zhang Xiu''s eyes sweep over the bottom, she knows the general situation.


    His eyes passed over a man named Yan Zheng.


    According to Zhang Yan, this man was once a poor scholar and had some skills.


    He has always been unconvinced with Zhang Yan.


    From the beginning to the end, Yan Zheng did not make a statement, which made Zhang Yan worried. So after Zhang Yan reminds, Zhang Xiu notices. When Zhang Xiu looks at Yan Zheng, he sees Yan Zheng stand up and go to Zhang Xiu.Yan Zheng is in his early 40s. He is thin, with narrow eyes and thin lips. He went to the hall, arched his hand and said, "it''s a great honor for Yan Zheng to submit to Zhang Taiwei today. I respect Zhang Taiwei."


    "I''ll do it first."


    Yan Zheng took the bottle and drank it.


    Zhang xiudao said: "although general Yan is a scholar, he is forthright and good at drinking. I like him."


    With that, he took the bottle and drank it.


    Yan Zheng returned to his seat and motioned with his eyes. Suddenly, the generals headed by him took up the wine bottles one after another and got up to propose a toast to Zhang Xiu. One by one, all the toasts were for Zhang Xiu. At the back, even Zhang Yan was pulled in, and at the same time, they drank for Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiu.


    Continuous toast, Zhang Xiu eyes blurred, make drunk appearance.


    So is Zhang Yan.


    Seeing that many people were a little drunk, Zhang Yan said, "ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of today''s banquet. Zhang Taiwei is getting drunk too. I have almost the same amount of alcohol. I''m gone. Let''s go back to each other! "


    When they heard this, there was no objection.


    He who should have left did not stay.


    Yan is leaving, once again to Zhang Xiu toast a glass of wine to leave. It''s just that when he left, he forgot the drunken Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan, and a thought-provoking smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan are drunk at the same time.


    This is his chance.


    Soon, everyone left.


    The hall is empty, leaving only Ren Qiong, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and Shi a.


    Ren Qiong immediately arranged for soldiers to take Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiu to the back yard. In the backyard, Zhang Yan''s people were guarding, and some of the other lines couldn''t detect the news in the backyard.


    In the courtyard, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan have regained consciousness.


    Zhang Yan took a deep breath, rubbed her face, looked at Zhang Xiu with an unexpected look, and said: "my Lord, there are so many people who respect you, especially Yan Zheng, who is calling for a toast, intending to pour you over. But it''s like he didn''t drink. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this wine is not enough to intoxicate me. When I went to Xudu, the emperor held a banquet for me. At the banquet, Guo Jia, Xu Chu, Xia Houdun and others under Cao Cao came to toast one after another, intending to intoxicate me. But they''re all drunk, and I''m still not. The wine I drink today is insignificant. "


    Zhang Yan said: "Lord, there are a lot of people!"


    After a pause, Zhang Yan said: "at the banquet, Yan Zheng showed a little trace. I just don''t know if he will take risks and bring people to the Dazhai village to kill. "


    "We''ll wait and see. We''ve given him a chance. I''m sure he''ll come," Zhang said

 Chapter 504

    The night is deep and the village is quiet.


    Yan Zheng lives in the courtyard, in the hall.


    Yan is sitting in the main seat, below the left and right sides, each sitting three generals.


    Including Yan Zheng, a total of seven people.


    Yan Zheng''s face was sharp and overbearing. He looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice, "you''ve heard what Zhang Yan said before. Zhang Yan completely ignores our idea, wants to submit to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Yan is still the chief General of the army and can still call the wind and the rain."


    "But what about us?"


    "We have no power in the mountains, no freedom now."


    "Would you like that?"


    Yan Zheng''s eyes were sharp and he said, "no matter what you think, I don''t want to. I don''t want to give up everything on the mountain and go with Zhang Xiu. "


    The people sitting below are all in collusion with Yan Zheng, indulging in the power of the mountain. After they heard Yan Zheng''s words, they all expressed their position and were unwilling to submit to Zhang Xiu.


    Yan Zheng continued: "since you don''t want to, that''s good. Zhang Yan wants to surrender. It''s his own business. Let''s not submit to Zhang Xiu. And now, we have a chance to kill Zhang Xiu? "


    The bottom one: "brother Yan, you have seen the strength of Zhang Xiu with your own eyes. Even pan Youfu is dead. Let''s kill Zhang Xiu. Can we kill him? "


    His name is Zhang Damu, and he is also a general in charge.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Yan Zheng is stroking the beard under jaw to smile, say: "you this is wrong."


    Zhang said, "why?"


    Yan Zheng replied, "don''t you see the banquet tonight? Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan are both drunk. Under such circumstances, Zhang Yan''s defense is bound to weaken. Even where Zhang Yan lives, there are soldiers to defend him. But when they are drunk, it is entirely possible for us to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "Of course, Zhang Yan is our commander after all. He made a mistake, we don''t kill him, we just control Zhang Yan. "


    "What we want to kill is Zhang Xiu."


    Yan Zheng''s eyes narrowed. In his narrow eyes, he was cold and fierce. He said that he would not kill Zhang Yan, but in his heart he meant to kill Zhang Yan. Now, he just talks.


    Once it''s time to fight, kill Zhang Yan first and get rid of Zhang Yan.


    He said this because he was afraid of causing a backlash from Zhang Damu and others. After all, Zhang Yan is the leader of the black mountain army and has a high prestige.


    On hearing this, Zhang Damu and others quickly agreed: "although commander Zhang Yan made a mistake and believed Zhang Xiu by mistake, he really can''t kill him. In this war, I listen to brother Yan. "


    "I also listen to brother Yan!"


    "Kill, we must kill Zhang Xiu, and then we have a chance to win Guanzhong."


    The rest of them agreed.


    The look on all the faces was full of murderous intent. They all know that Zhang Xiu is the soul of the whole Guanzhong army. Once Zhang Xiu is killed, it will shake the foundation of Zhang Xiu.


    Yan Zheng saw that everyone agreed, calm down and said: "since there are no opinions, don''t delay any more. You go to mobilize your respective forces. We will go up tonight to encircle Zhang Yan''s stronghold, control Zhang Yan and kill Zhang Xiu. Our army is just like the king''s army. It''s not to revolt, but to get rid of the treacherous and sycophants. "


    "Set up troops to serve the king, get rid of the treacherous and sycophant!"


    When Zhang Damu heard this, he immediately took the lead.


    "Set up troops to serve the king and root out the treacherous and sycophants!"


    "Set up troops to serve the king and root out the treacherous and sycophants!"


    ¡­¡­


    The sound of shouting, one after another.


    Several facial expressions, there are fanatical and excited. In their hearts, they were all vaguely excited. Because this time, once they become, their power is bound to increase.


    The strength of the Montenegrin army is bound to expand.


    "Let''s go. In the evening after dark, we''ll meet at the gate of Dazhai."


    Yan Zhengda waved his sleeve and gave the order.


    After Zhang Damu and others left, they went to mobilize the army. Yan Zheng is the same, he went directly to the barracks, to mobilize soldiers under his command.


    In fact, the military structure of the Montenegrin army is not a real one.


    Each leader has his own army.


    In other words, Zhang Yan is more like the leader of the alliance and is the most powerful army. Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and others all controlled the army, but they also listened to Zhang Yan''s arrangement.


    This is the structure of the Montenegrin army.


    This structure is similar to the yellow scarf army in the past. The commander of the yellow scarf army is Zhang Jiao in name, but Zhang Jiao only controls the strongest lineage under his command.


    In addition, most of the time, the Yellow scarves in other states were in their own ways and led the battles. Zhang Jiao remote control all the yellow scarf army, can rely on his prestige, but after Zhang Jiao''s death, each yellow scarf on their own.


    So that it fell apart.


    This is the case with the Montenegrin army.Yan Zheng had fifteen elite soldiers, while the rest of Zhang Damu and other six had four thousand.


    Seven, five thousand five hundred.


    After dark, Yan Zheng and Zhang Damu''s troops gathered quietly at the gate of Dazhai. Yan Zheng flashed a fierce look in his eyes and said, "son Lang, let''s not submit to Zhang Xiu. It''s tonight to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "Kill


    Yan Zheng gave the order directly.


    Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and other soldiers quickly went to Dazhai and killed them.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhan, Shi a, Wang Yue and Zhang Yan had already appeared at the gate of Dazhai.


    Zhang Xiu is holding a long gun in her hand.


    He didn''t take his overlord gun to the mountain, so he found a big gun forged with fine iron in the weapon warehouse of the mountain stronghold. Although the weight of this iron gun can''t compare with that of overlord gun, and its tenacity can''t compare with that of overlord gun, it can barely make do with it!


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldiers and said with a smile, "Zhang Yan, do you see it? It''s really coming."


    Zhang Yan said, "it''s coming!"


    He raised his hand and ordered, "Archer, shoot!"


    All of a sudden, 300 archers appeared in the stronghold, all holding bows and arrows and shooting directly.


    "Whew! Whew


    The bow and arrow broke through the air and crossed an arc in the air. In the twinkling of an eye, they were in front of the black mountain soldiers.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A bow and arrow, across the air, into the body of the black mountain Army soldiers. At that time, more than a hundred people fell to the ground with arrows and screamed loudly.


    The forward attack was suddenly blocked.


    Yan is behind to see, his face shows surprised look.


    He saw Zhang Xiu!


    See Zhang Yan more!


    They stood at the gate of the village, not drunk at all.


    It''s a trick!


    Yan Zheng''s heart gave birth to such an idea.


    However, Yan Zheng has no idea of withdrawing. At this point, we can''t go back to him. If we don''t kill Zhang Xiu today, Zhang Xiu will kill us. Kill


    Yan Zheng mobilized another 1000 soldiers to kill.


    Even if Zhang Yan is ready, he is not afraid to defeat Zhang Yan''s army. Once again, a thousand soldiers were killed, and the black army rushed forward, killing people.


    But the soldiers who rushed forward were still being shot and killed by the archers. Rao is so. With the passage of time, some soldiers are approaching, less than 20 steps away from the gate of Dazhai.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Yan and said with a smile, "Zhang Yan, it''s our turn. This time, kill them all. "


    "Kill


    Zhang Yan has sharp eyes.


    "I''ll go first."


    Zhang Xiu is carrying a long gun, at the foot does not stop, is already fast forward.


    Zhang Yan, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan followed closely.


    When the party came out, the archers behind them did not shoot any more. They all drew their swords out of their scabbard and carried their swords out. At the same time, in Dazhai, there are nearly 3000 soldiers pouring out, with Zhang Xiu launched an attack.

 Chapter 505

    Zhang Xiu rushed forward with her gun, very fast. In the twinkling of an eye, he has been killed in Yan Zheng''s soldiers. Zhang Xiu saw that four soldiers were killed, and her gun swept through the air, blocking her waist and bumping into the four soldiers.


    "Bang!"


    The gun was heavy and thumping.


    The shrill cry came from the soldier''s mouth. Four people fell to the ground on the spot and cried loudly.


    Zhang Xiu injured four people with one shot, took back the gun like lightning, and stabbed it out again.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into the body of a soldier in front of Zhang Xiu. As the barrel of the gun drew out, it brought out a cloud of red blood.


    From the beginning to the end, the soldier was killed without even making a sound.


    Zhang Xiu with a gun, into the crowd.


    The soldiers kept falling to the ground when they were shot.


    Like a sharp knife, Zhang Xiu pierced into Yan Zheng''s soldiers. No one can stop him where he has been. On the other hand, Zhang Yan, Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan are the same.


    Four people killed Yan Zheng''s soldiers and killed countless people.


    Under the leadership of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yan and Wang Yue, the 3000 soldiers in the rear were greatly encouraged.


    Everyone, charge fast.


    Under such an offensive, Zhang Xiu and his party destroyed Yan Zheng''s soldiers like a tiger into a sheep.


    Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and others were surprised.


    Zhang Damu had a worried look in his eyes and said: "brother Yan, Zhang Xiu is fierce, and the people he brings are not weak. Zhang Yan is on Zhang Xiu''s side again. What shall we do now? "


    Yan is biting a tooth, sink a way: "we are now, already have no choice."


    "Only to kill."


    "If you do, don''t flinch."


    "It''s worse to shrink back now."


    "Kill it!"


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    Yan Zheng''s eyes were cold, and he gave the order to attack. After his orders were given, Zhang Damu and others also gave orders.


    All the soldiers, kill them.


    Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and others also entered the battlefield with weapons and rushed forward with soldiers.


    Let''s go.


    Everyone''s fighting for their lives.


    At this time, Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and others had no way out, they had to bite their teeth and rush forward. Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yan and others took the lead in the confrontation between the two sides. The black mountain soldiers under Zhang Yan were extremely brave.


    Even if the number of players is small, they still have an advantage, pressing Yan Zheng to fight.


    Zhang Xiu is carrying a gun to kill in the crowd, but his eyes are fast, looking at the figure of Yan Zheng and others. As he killed, he rushed forward.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    He saw Zhang Damu.


    Zhang Yan held a banquet, and the main generals of the Heishan army all toasted Zhang Xiu. So Zhang Xiu knows Zhang Damu. Once she finds Zhang Damu, Zhang Xiu no longer hesitates and rushes forward with a gun.


    Ten steps!


    Eight steps!


    In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu is only four steps away from Zhang Damu. At this time, Zhang Xiu suddenly burst up, long gun in the air a shake, fast stab to chapter big eyes.


    "Be careful, general!"


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s gun is about to hit Zhang Damu, the soldiers on one side slash it with a knife.


    "Dang!"


    The blade impacts on the barrel of the gun, which deflects the direction of Zhang Xiu''s shot. Zhang Xiu side body, long gun a lift, gun tip in the air to turn, instant stab to just swung a knife to cut the soldiers.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into the soldier''s body.


    One shot pierced the soldier''s heart.


    When Zhang Xiu withdraws her gun, Zhang''s eyes are already slashed. The big gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand goes up to the top, and the blade splits on the barrel. Zhang Xiu''s power suddenly bursts out, and the strong force rebounds, and swings the blade of Zhang''s big purpose.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    The long gun revolves in the air. If the long gun is like a stick, it will be severely hit.


    When the spear fell, it was already roaring, with a terrible momentum. In particular, this shot fell very fast, straight to Zhang''s eyes. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s shot, Zhang Damu couldn''t avoid it, so he had to carry it with his knife.


    "Dang!"


    The iron gun hit on the blade, in an instant, the endless power burst out. The fierce force, like the tide, rushes into Zhang Dazhu''s knife and impacts Zhang Dazhu''s palm.


    At that time, Zhang''s eyes were torn.


    Under the pain of his hands, he couldn''t hold the handle of the knife, and the sword flew out directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s iron gun continues to fall.


    "Bang!"


    The sound of a dull crash rang out at once.


    The barrel of the gun hit Zhang Damu''s left shoulder. With Zhang Xiu''s all-out strength, his shoulder blade broke and half of his shoulder collapsed.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Zhang''s mouth.Zhang''s face was full of pain, and his body could not help shivering. Wave after wave of pain, making his consciousness, there is a short absence.


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu gun back, again stab out.


    The gun is like a dragon!


    A shot is as fast as lightning.


    At that time, the big gun came to Zhang''s chest. Zhang Damu turned back and tried to escape, but it was a step too late.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates Zhang''s body.


    One shot through the heart.


    The red blood splashed out like spring water and dyed Zhang Xiu''s clothes red.


    Zhang Xiu''s iron gun in her hand thrust her into the air, holding Zhang Dazhu''s body in the air and roaring: "Zhang Dazhu is dead, and those who fall will not be killed! There is no amnesty for the resistance


    Zhang Xiu suddenly throws Zhang Dazhu''s body out.


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu continued to kill.


    When Zhang Xiu killed Zhang Damu, Zhang Yan and others also successively killed the other leaders, leaving Yan Zheng alone.


    At this moment, Yan Zheng panicked.


    In order to kill Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan, Yan Zheng transferred more than 5000 people. In Yan Zheng''s view, such a force, to kill Zhang Xiu, is easy.


    Unexpectedly, it failed.


    Yan Zheng looked around, he could see the surrender of the soldiers, but also saw countless soldiers retreat.


    "Withdraw!"


    "Retreat!"


    Yan Zheng heart a horizontal, made a decision.


    In today''s situation, he can no longer turn the tide, let alone defeat Zhang Yan''s army. In particular, Zhang Damu and others have been killed. He has no solution but to evacuate.


    Withdraw from Heishan and go to Yuan Shao.


    Under the condition of Zhang Yan''s obedience to Zhang Xiu, he went to Yuan Shao and was sure to get Yuan Shao''s solicitation.


    At least I can be a part-time official.


    This is Yan Zheng''s idea.


    Only when Yan Zheng withdrew, Zhang Xiu saw Yan Zheng''s figure. He saw that Yan was retreating, with a sneer on his lips. Up to now, Yan Zheng still wants to escape, which is wishful thinking.


    Zhang xiubu under the plot, a ring buckle a ring, has long been expected Yan Zheng may withdraw the possibility of escape.


    When Yan Zheng began to retreat and his soldiers fled in a large area, a hundred paces away from the Dazhai village, there was a forest. Now it was dark in the forest and nothing could be seen.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    All of a sudden, the dazzling light lit up from the forest.


    A torch burns, more and more torches light, dispelling the darkness. The sudden glare made Yan Zheng and his soldiers extremely uncomfortable.


    After all the torches were lit, the black soldiers rushed out.


    This group of soldiers, more than 3000 in number, is the only remaining soldiers of Zhang Yan. Zhang Yan, as the commander of the Heishan army, has more than 6000 elite troops under his command, which is a powerful force.


    These three thousand soldiers killed, cut off Yan Zheng''s retreat, making Yan Zheng unable to retreat.


    Zhang Xiu takes the gun and Spurs straight to Yan Zheng.


    He doesn''t intend to leave Yan Zheng''s life. Today''s Zhang Xiu is stained with the blood of Yan Zheng''s soldiers. He''s like a devil now.


    When he rushed forward, all the black mountain soldiers under Yan Zheng threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender. No one dared to fight with Zhang Xiu, and no one dared to resist.


    They were all scared by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is closer and closer to Yan Zheng.


    Less than 20 steps for both sides!


    Yan Zheng saw the soldiers blocking his road in front of him, and saw Zhang Xiu killed in the rear. He wanted to retreat, but it was obviously impossible. And the rear Zhang Xiu quickly killed, he could not avoid.


    "Plop!"


    Yan Zheng knelt down and begged for mercy: "I surrender, Zhang Taiwei. I''m willing to surrender."


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Zhang Xiu''s footstep is continuously stepping, and soon arrives at Yan Zheng''s front. Even if he heard Yan Zheng''s words, he didn''t stop. When Zhang Xiu was three steps away from Yan Zheng, the spear swung up and stabbed Yan Zheng kneeling on the ground.


    Seeing the big gun coming here, Yan Zheng is scared to beat a spirit, without hesitation of a roll, avoid Zhang Xiu''s big gun. After he dodged Zhang Xiu''s gun, his eyes panicked.


    Zhang Xiu won''t surrender him!


    Zhang Xiu is going to kill him!


    At this moment, Yan Zheng''s heart is extremely panic. After he stood up, he ran away quickly, shouting: "Zhang Taiwei, I''m willing to surrender. Why do you want to kill me?"


    Zhang Xiu steps at the foot of the gun to catch up quickly. When the distance between the two sides was six or seven steps, Zhang Xiu grasped the long gun in her hand and threw it forward.


    "Whew!"


    The big gun was thrown and pierced the air.


    In a flash, the long gun came to Yan Zheng''s back. With a puff, the tip of the gun penetrated Yan Zheng''s back. Under the strong force, Yan Zheng staggered forward two steps, and then Yan Zheng fell to the ground.After Yan Zheng fell to the ground, his chest gurgled with blood and his eyes were frightened. He saw Zhang Xiu come, opened his mouth, a look of shock, he wanted to speak, but his eyes became blurred.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Yan Zheng lost his focus in his eyes, and then he lost his breath.


    Yan Zheng is dead!


    He died under Zhang Xiu''s gun.


    After Zhang Xiu killed Yan Zheng, he quickly joined Zhang Yan and others to kill the black mountain soldiers who were still fighting.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the war was over.


    Zhang Yan directly burned the bodies of Yan Zheng, Zhang Damu and all the dead soldiers, and collected more than 2000 captured soldiers. Then he and Zhang Xiu returned to the village.


    It''s dark. It''s in the middle of the night.


    Zhang Yan said: "relying on the master''s ingenious calculation, this time, Yan Zheng and others were eliminated, and there was no worry in Heishan."


    Zhang Xiu nodded: "Yan Zheng and others were killed, Chen Qi and others were subdued, the army really had no worries. But your control of the army needs to be strengthened. In particular, you have to obey me, and you can''t let it out for the time being. Otherwise, after Yuan Shao knows, it will be very difficult for the black mountain army to attack Yuan Shao as a surprise force. "


    "I understand


    Zhang Yan said, "don''t worry, my Lord. I''ll order people to keep their mouths shut."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as the news is not spread on a large scale, and the focus of Yuan Shao''s experience is no longer on you, you can''t hear the news."


    Zhang Yan said in a deep voice: "it''s the second half of the night. Let''s have a rest in the backyard."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu responded directly.


    Up to now, he is really tired. After all, it was the second half of the night. In another two or three hours, it will be bright again, so we need to take a break.

 Chapter 506

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiugang morning exercise, Zhang Yan personally brought breakfast. After waiting for Zhang Xiu to eat, Zhang Yan said: "Lord, I''ve arranged for Yan Zheng and other people''s affairs. I don''t allow the generals in the army to speak more. The humble position has controlled the information so as not to leak it. Now, Yuan Shao is about to arrive in dangyin county. What is the Lord going to do? When will we send out our troops? "


    Zhang Yan was in Heishan and didn''t know what to do next, so she took the initiative to ask for help.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and replied, "there are three things you need to do."


    "First, take control of the Montenegrin army. There can be no more chaos last night."


    "Second, send someone to watch the battle between Yuan Shao and me. If you have a chance, you can decide to send troops. Now the war with Yuan Shao has not started. In a short time, I don''t know what will happen, so I can''t judge what to do. "


    "Third, keep close contact. When I was fighting with Yuan Shao at the foot of the mountain. If there is a suitable opportunity to attack, we will send someone to inform you and let you send troops. "


    Zhang Xiu put forward three requirements.


    The current situation of the war with Yuan Shao is not clear and is not suitable for war.


    Zhang Yan said: "I understand your humble position."


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "time is pressing, I do not stay in the mountains, this is down the mountain."


    "I send it to my Lord!"


    Zhang Yan immediately sent Zhang Xiu down the mountain.


    It''s a long way from the mountains. Just before noon, Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue left Heishan and rode quickly to the military camp in dangyin county.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Sima Yi and others welcomed her.


    Everyone was relieved to see that Zhang Xiu was intact.


    When Zhang Xiu went to Heishan, they were all worried. In case of Zhang Xiu''s weakness in Heishan, none of them can shoulder the responsibility.


    Now, it''s back.


    The Chinese Army''s big account, the guests and the hosts are seated.


    Sima Yi couldn''t wait to ask: "Lord, what''s the result of this trip to Heishan?" Although Sima Yi''s heart thought that it must be success, that''s why Zhang Xiu returned so quickly. However, he always has to ask before he can be sure.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Zhang Yan has been submissive, willing to use for me. Next, we can go all out to fight against Yuan Shao. "


    Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Gan Ning and others all smile.


    If Zhang Yan is subdued, he will not be attacked.


    In addition to that, there are also surprise soldiers.


    It can be said that with the help of Zhang Yan, it is much easier to defeat Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and continued: "Yuan Shao''s army is about to arrive in dangyin county. This time, it''s a war between us and Yuan Shao. What do you suggest for this war? "


    Yang said: "Lord, there is a way to be humble."


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shao had a strong army and sufficient food. It is not easy to defeat Yuan Shao. Even with Zhang Yan''s help, it''s not easy. "


    "I suggest that you send someone to Youzhou to lobby Gongsun Zan of Youzhou to fight back against Yuan Shao."


    "According to the news, Gongsun Zan built a city in Yijing, built a barracks, and stuck to it. As long as Gongsun Zan could be persuaded to send troops, Yuan Shao''s rear area would be in turmoil. "


    Yang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao sent 100000 troops to Hanoi County, and the main forces were gathered in the front line of dangyin county. As long as Gongsun Zan works in the rear, Yuan Shao will suffer from the enemy "


    Zhang Xiu pondered and said," Gongsun Zan is now defeated by Yuan Shao. It''s not easy to persuade him. "


    Yang Xiu took the initiative to say, "I''m willing to go north to Youzhou to persuade Gongsun Zan."


    He volunteered.


    As the son of Yang Biao and the successor of the Yang family, Yang Xiu is not satisfied with the status quo. Especially this time, Zhang Xiu only brought him, Sima Yi and Pang Tong, and made it clear that it was an opportunity for them to make contributions.


    So Yang Xiu took the initiative to fight.


    Once Gong sun Zan can be convinced, he will have another sharp weapon to deal with Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "dezu, it''s quite a risk to go north to Youzhou. Do you want to think about it clearly?"


    Yang Xiu raised his head and threw the ground in a voice: "no matter how hard it is, I''m willing to go. This is an opportunity to stop Yuan Shao. Today, Gongsun Zan, in particular, blindly evades and doesn''t persuade Gongsun Zan. When Yuan Shao takes the whole Youzhou, his strength will be stronger. Therefore, persuading Gongsun Zan is not only beneficial to the war, but also extremely beneficial to Yuan Shao. "


    "Well, I''ll give you permission!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you go to Youzhou, it will be convenient for you."


    "Thank you


    Yang Xiu gave thanks.


    His heart is agitated unceasingly, way: "humble duty, this goes to prepare, then sets out north."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shi ah!"


    "Yes


    Shia enters at the gate and salutes with her fist.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Yang Xiu will go north to Youzhou. You are responsible for ensuring Yang Xiu''s safety. Man, I''ll give it to you intact. When you come back, you''ll bring it back to me intact. ""Here it is


    Shia''s fists should go down.


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    Yang Xiu bowed and turned to leave. Shi a also followed Yang Xiu to leave.


    Pang Tong looked at Yang Xiu''s back, and his eyes were shining with admiration. This time he went north with Zhang Xiu, he was looking for opportunities to do meritorious service, to temper himself in the battlefield, but also to make contributions.


    But in his heart he was sorry.


    I''m a step slow.


    As a matter of fact, Pang Tong knew about Gongsun Zan. After all, Zhang Xiu did not hide the news from the public. Even Pang Tong thought about persuading Gongsun Zan, but he didn''t make a decision immediately, so that Yang Xiu took the lead.


    Pang Tong turned his eyes and suddenly said, "Lord, I beg you to help Zhang Yan in Heishan."


    "Oh, why?"


    Zhang Xiu started to smile. After Yang Xiu, even Pang Tong took the initiative to fight.


    That''s a good thing.


    It''s a good thing that people below are willing to think and think about things.


    Pang Tong said: "the LORD went to Heishan and recruited Zhang Yan. If Zhang Yan was only a surprise force, it would be a waste of the advantage of the Heishan army."


    "I''m humble to Heishan and help Zhang Yan."


    "On the one hand, it is to assist Zhang Yan to find opportunities at any time to surprise the rear army of Yuan Shao."


    "On the other hand, the humble officials thought that when the war started, they could dispatch part of the Heishan army to attack Yecheng. The distance between Yecheng and dangyin county is not too far, especially when Yuan Shao''s army is out, Yecheng must be empty. "


    "Under the premise of surprise attack on Yecheng."


    "At least, it can restrain Yuan Shao."


    Pang Tong said: "therefore, please enter Heishan and mobilize Zhang Yan''s Heishan army."


    Zhang Xiu thought quickly in her heart.


    Pang Tong''s suggestion is really good, especially Zhang Yan. Although she is brave, she may not be able to grasp the timing accurately.


    Pang tong can seize the opportunity when he goes there.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "you go to Heishan to cooperate with Zhang Yan. Remember, we should unite our strength in Montenegrin, and we should not have any quarrels with Zhang Yansheng. Although Zhang Yan is submissive, it is likely to lead to a big mistake if Zhang Yan is angry. "


    Under the command of Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong was quite low-key, and he would show up if he had no edge.


    To outsiders, Pang Tong is not like this.


    Most of the time, Pang Tong''s edge will be exposed and he is proud of his talent.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiucai reminds us.


    Pang Tong, with a smile on his face, confidently said, "please rest assured, my Lord. I will deal with the interpersonal relationship well, and I won''t let Zhang Yan feel dissatisfied."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m waiting for your good news."


    Pang Tong didn''t stay, so he turned around and left, preparing to go to Heishan.


    Sima Yi sat at the bottom of Zhang Xiu, looking at her eyes, nose and heart. She was not excited or impetuous. Yang Xiu and Pang Tong have all left. He is the only one left by Zhang Xiu. This is not a bad thing.


    Sima Yi was not impatient and said: "Lord, Yuan Shao mobilized his troops to the South and was about to arrive at dangyin county. Around our camp, there was an open space. Although there is a source of water, we should not take precautions. Once Yuan Shao''s cavalry attack, it will be extremely unfavorable to us. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you suggest?"


    Sima Yi said: "I''m sure that Yuan Shao, full of indignation, will attack us as soon as he arrives outside the city of dangyin county. It is suggested that we should make protection immediately and arrange the response measures early. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "how are you going to arrange it?"


    Sima Yi had a confident look on her face and said his plans and ideas immediately.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded in approval, looked at Huang Zhong and said, "Hansheng, you can arrange it immediately."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong''s fist should be thrown.


    After Zhang Xiu''s command, he asked Chen Dao and Gan Ning to assist Huang Zhong in the arrangement.


    After the arrangement, they were asked to step down.

 Chapter 507

    As time went by, Yuan Shao''s army approached the county seat of dangyin county.


    Yuan Shao mobilized 100000 troops this time.


    The closer he got to dangyin County, the more agitated he was. He was already looking forward to it.


    Yuan Shao had not met Zhang Xiu.


    In his heart, he wanted to see the man who killed his two generals and defeated his army.


    In the Chinese army, Yuan Shao rode slowly.


    Today, Yuan Shao, wearing armor and a golden helmet, can be said to be golden armor and helmet, shining all over. Beside him, there was a big flag belonging to Yuan Shao, which was hunting in the air.


    Tens of thousands of people and horses are marching forward, winding long, with no end in sight.


    The army is mighty and powerful.


    Yuan Shao''s army entered from the border of dangyin county. Where it passed, the cities along the way did not resist at all. After all, many of the cities in dangyin county are small towns. The walls are only about two feet long at most. The walls are not strong enough to resist.


    "Newspaper!"


    Not far away, the sentry call came out.


    With the sound of the horse''s hooves, a sentinel flying horse ran back to Yuan Shao''s side and reported: "general, outside the north city of dangyin County, Zhang Xiu''s army is stationed in an array, intending to resist US outside the city."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Yuan Shao laughed when he heard the speech.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Zhang Xiu also dares to set up camp outside the city to resist, which is beyond her capacity.


    Even if Zhang Xiu retreats into dangyin County, with the help of the city to resist, Yuan Shao is not afraid and thinks he can easily win. Now, Zhang Xiu is encamped outside the city, and Yuan Shao feels that Zhang Xiu can''t bear the first World War.


    Beside Yuan Shao, there were Fengji, Xu you, Guo Tu, Ju Shi and others.


    But Xu you shook his head and looked worried. He suggested: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is cunning and treacherous. He takes the initiative to camp outside the city. Maybe it''s a mystery, or maybe Zhang xiubu has laid an ambush and is ready to ambush us. "


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "Ziyuan, you are afraid of being beaten by Zhang Xiu. So as soon as Zhang Xiu has an action, you will panic in your heart. In my opinion, Zhang Xiu is not afraid. "


    Xu you looks embarrassed.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Yuan Shao said that he was afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    He is not afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    It''s a pity that Xu you''s words didn''t work. Instead, he was teased by Yuan Shao.


    "Lord, please fight


    At this time, a strong general strode out. His eyebrows are crooked, his eyes are eagle eyes, his nose is straight and straight, his lips are slightly thin. Although he is big and strong, he gives people the feeling that he will show his edge.


    He is a good friend.


    He is a general under Yuan Shao.


    The battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, the battle of Jieqiao, was based on quyi''s leading troops to defeat Gongsun Zan''s Baima Yicong, so as to establish the victory and gain the advantage of fighting with Gongsun Zan.


    Under Yuan Shao''s command, Qu Yi was a capable general. He dares to fight and kill on the battlefield. In particular, the soldiers in command of Quyi were brave and fearless of death.


    Its combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on Qu Yi, and there was a trace of unhappiness in his eyes. But for a moment, there was a look of approval on his face. Qu Yi was a great general of Yuan Shao, but he was proud of his achievements.


    Sometimes, even Yuan Shao is ignored.


    Yuan Shao didn''t like such a person.


    In history, Qu Yi was killed by Yuan Shao because he was self righteous and didn''t pay attention to Yuan Shao.


    All his soldiers were annexed by Yuan Shao.


    Today, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed, and Zhang Ya surrendered. Many of Yuan Shao''s generals were missing, so Yuan Shao took Qu Yi with him even if he didn''t like Qu Yi.


    Yuan Shao said, "Qu Yi, you take the initiative to fight. I will grant your request. I will give you 800 cavalry and 10000 infantry. You will be the vanguard to attack Zhang Xiu''s camp first. I hope that when the army arrives, you have already entered Zhang Xiu''s camp. "


    "I''ll do it


    Qu Yi''s face was full of excitement.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "go!"


    "Here it is


    He threw his fist and turned to leave.


    Yuan Shao looked at Qu Yi''s back and looked forward to his departure.


    Seeing this, Xu you frowned.


    When Yuan Shao saw Xu you''s appearance, he joked in his heart and said, "Ziyuan, you look worried. You must be worried about quyi''s failure. However, I have full confidence in quyi. Why don''t you make a bet with me? "


    "What''s the bet?" Xu you said.


    Yuan Shao replied, "as far as I know, you just got a pair of wine bottles made of Lantian jade. They are of high quality. If quyi takes the vanguard troops to Zhang Xiu''s camp, how about giving this pair of Lantian jade wine bottles to my official? "


    "Ah


    Xu you hears speech, exclaim.The fact that he got Lantian jade wine bottle is quite secret. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao knew. Xu you''s heart, thinking that this is Yuan Shao''s beating? Or, just as Yuan Shao said casually, he didn''t want to knock.


    Yuan Shao said with a smile: "Ziyuan, I don''t take advantage of you. If Qu Yi arrives at the gate of Zhang Xiu''s camp and still doesn''t make any progress, and doesn''t get any results, how about giving you a blue jade pillow that I collected? "


    "OK, I''ll bet."


    After hearing this, Xu you answered directly.


    He knew that Yuan Shao''s Lantian jade pillow was a treasure offered by local officials.


    Xu you''s heart, also very greedy.


    If you can get Yuan Shao''s Lantian jade pillow, you can open it and make all kinds of exquisite objects.


    This is Xu you''s greed.


    Yuan Shao said with a smile: "Ziyuan, this time, you will definitely lose."


    But with a smile on his face, Xu you said, "Lord, it''s not known who will win or lose. The specific situation can only be known when we arrive at Zhang Xiu''s camp. "


    Yuan Shao said: "let''s wait and see!"


    As Yuan Shao''s army continued on its way, Qu Yi, with 800 cavalry and infantry, made a quick way to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Less than half an hour later, quyi arrived outside the Zhangxiu camp.


    Qu Yi rode his horse and looked around carefully. See Zhang Xiu camp around, is an open area, Qu Yi face showed a bright smile.


    Zhang Xiu is defeated!


    Such an open place is suitable for horse racing.


    Such an open place is just suitable for the army to attack.


    "Kill


    Qu Yi raised his sword and gave the order to attack. With Qu Yi''s order, all the soldiers, no longer hesitated, shook the reins of the horse and drove the horse to charge at full speed.


    Cavalry in the front, infantry in the back.


    Qu Yi led 800 cavalry to the gate of the camp, intending to break the defense at the gate.


    This scene, fell in the camp, Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    When the quyi army approaches, Zhang Xiu has got the news and comes out with Huang Zhong and others, waiting at the gate of the camp.


    When Qu Yi led the cavalry to attack, Zhang Xiu showed a bright smile on her face and said: "I like this kind of attack. If the cavalry spread, it''s not easy to deal with. But now, it''s much easier. "


    Huang Zhong stood aside with a look of expectation in his eyes.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    A hundred feet!


    Eighty feet!


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than 120 steps, Qu Yi stood up on his horse and cried out, "shotgun, shoot!"


    At a command, 800 Jing rode from the pocket in the horse''s belly and took out the shotgun. With the shotgun in hand, the soldier leaned back and threw the shotgun directly.


    "Whew! Whew


    There was a piercing sound in the air. Eight hundred short guns passed through the air. They rushed forward quickly to the soldiers at the gate of the camp.


    Huang Zhong said: "shield soldiers, up!"


    With a command, one by one soldiers with shields, fast forward. One shield stood in the air, followed by the other, and the shotguns fell like rain.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    The sound of impact, one after another.


    More and more rifles fell, hitting the shield, and the soldiers tried to resist.


    Zhang Xiu looked at him with a smile on her lips and said: "the commander of Yuan''s army is quite cunning. He knows to suppress our army with a short gun so that the cavalry can move forward quickly. Unfortunately, all this is in vain


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall outside the camp.


    Cavalry approaching again, less than 80 steps away from the camp!


    Here we are!


    Right now!


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth suddenly rises, arousing a brilliant smile.

 Chapter 508

    Eight hundred yuan cavalry, fast forward. When they were 80 paces closer to the camp, the cavalry in the army got excited. As long as the cavalry enter the barracks, they can cover up everywhere.


    After that, another infantry will follow, and the defense of Zhang Xiu''s camp will be broken.


    Even though there are 80000 elite soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s camp, even if quyi''s troops are insufficient, it will be difficult to wipe out the army led by quyi for a while.


    Once Yuan Shao''s army arrived and joined the battlefield, Zhang Xiu''s troops were insufficient and would be defeated.


    On his face, a smile has emerged.


    He will win this battle!


    "Herod!"


    The horses hissed, their hooves trampled on the ground, and kept rushing forward. At this moment, the cavalry who rushed forward suddenly changed his face, because the horse under his seat fell forward.


    Boom!!


    The horse fell to the ground, especially at high speed. The horse suddenly fell to the ground. The strong force of the horse hit the ground and made the horse roll forward.


    The cavalry on horseback didn''t know where they were thrown.


    Boom! Boom!!


    One after another, the horses fell to the ground, and countless cavalry rushed forward, all fell to the ground.


    The cavalry attacked and was immediately blocked.


    "What''s going on, what''s going on?"


    Qu Yi shouts out loud. He is also driving his horse on the way. When he sees the soldiers in front of him fall down, he does not dare to rush forward. He can only turn the direction, rush to the side, and then turn the direction gradually.


    But many cavalry, not knowing the situation ahead, kept on rushing forward.


    So much so that the loss is huge.


    "It''s Tribulus terrestris. There''s Tribulus Terrestris on the ground. Besides, there are deep ditches. All the deep ditches are covered with weeds. "


    Among the fallen cavalry, those in good health yelled.


    Many people yelled and the news came out.


    When he heard the soldiers shouting, he looked shocked. Zhang Xiu had arranged for soldiers to dig deep ditches and arrange Tribulus terrestris at an early stage, which was obviously well prepared.


    Even, I expected to attack.


    Qu Yi''s face was cold, and he ordered, "stop, stop!"


    He gave orders in a loud voice.


    However, the cavalry is still in the high speed of 800. Under such a premise, it is not easy to stop suddenly.


    So a lot of cavalry, under inertia, are still charging forward.


    So much so that death and injury still happen.


    "Herod!"


    The reins of the horses were tightened, and the horses stopped and did not dare to move forward.


    I''m waiting for the infantry.


    He also had infantry under his command. As long as the infantry moved forward, they could avoid Tribulus terrestris and deep ditches.


    Now, in the camp.


    Zhang Xiu saw the scene outside the camp, and a smile rose from the corner of her mouth. The other side''s cavalry was within 80 steps, and the infantry were close to 80. He nodded to Huang Zhong, and he saw that Huang Zhong ordered, "Archer, let go!"


    With a command, soldiers appeared on the fence walls of the camp. They took bows and arrows and aimed at the outside of the camp.


    These infantry use strong bows.


    There''s no sight, but it''s powerful.


    Three thousand archers stood on the fence in the barracks and pulled them into a long line. When all the soldiers bent their bows and took their arrows, they immediately released the bowstring.


    "Whew!"


    The dense bows and arrows came out of the string


    three thousand bows and arrows swept through the air, black and dense. Outside the camp, the sky became dark because of the dense passing of bows and arrows.


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers, who were attacking, looked up and saw the bows and arrows falling from the sky. They were very shocked.


    Too much!


    Too many bows and arrows fall.


    Qu Yi also found that he raised the sword in his hand and roared, "go ahead, go ahead!"


    He gave the order and went on.


    To attack a city or a camp is to hang your head around your waist. You may be in danger of your life at any time. Under this premise, even if there are countless bows and arrows in the camp, we have to continue to rush.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the bow and arrow fell.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sharp arrow fell into the crowd of Yuan Jun''s soldiers.


    In a flash, countless casualties.


    Countless people died under the arrow, and countless soldiers were injured. For a moment, the screams continued, but even so, the soldiers under quyi were still rushing forward.


    Under a wave of arrow rain, infantry suffered more casualties, but the proportion of injuries was far smaller than that of cavalry.


    Many of the cavalry stood still, and the horses were big and strong. Standing within 80 paces, they became targets. Most of the 800 cavalry under quyi''s command were killed and injured in a short time, and they could not play a role at all.


    This curtain fell in Qu Yi''s eyes, making his face full of pain.His heart is bleeding.


    What a tragedy!


    His 800 cavalry are veterans of the battlefield, who have gone through countless battles.


    Now, it''s a disaster.


    "Kill me, kill me!"


    "Go in!"


    Qu Yi roared with his sword, waving the sword in his hand and swinging away the bow and arrow. He led the soldiers under his command to rush forward quickly, and the blade of the sword was moving forward.


    Under the command of the infantry, braved the rain of arrows forward. Although there were heavy casualties, it was not long before it crossed the area where cavalry fell to the ground one after another, risking being stabbed by Tribulus terrestris.


    He has a sharp eye.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu in the camp immediately.


    Qu Yi had some regrets in his heart. This time, the soldiers he brought with him only had swords, but they didn''t have shields, so that they couldn''t effectively resist bows and arrows.


    Rao is like this. The soldiers keep rushing forward.


    The bow and arrow are still coming, but the distance is also getting closer.


    Sixty steps!


    Fifty steps!


    When the distance narrowed to 40 steps, Zhang Xiu nodded to Huang Zhong again, and Huang Zhong ordered: "crossbow machine, prepare!"


    In an instant, a crossbow machine quickly took place.


    This crossbow machine was improved by Zhang Xiu''s workshop. Before that, although Huang Yueying was pregnant, she still had contact with the workshop and improved the crossbow machine. This kind of crossbow machine can''t achieve the power of the bed crossbow of later generations, but the crossbow machine is set up on the ground, within a hundred steps, enough to penetrate the wall.


    A crossbow machine was placed on the wall inside the camp fence, soldiers came forward to control, and a crossbow was loaded in.


    A hundred crossbow planes lined up and aimed at the attacking enemy.


    "Shoot the arrow!"


    The centurion in charge of the catapult gave a loud order.


    "Whew!"


    The machine of the catapult buckled, and a hundred catapults and arrows shot out. With a sharp whistling, they went straight to the soldiers of Yuan army who had been killed in the camp.


    The speed of the crossbow is as fast as lightning. Almost in the blink of an eye, the crossbow came to the soldiers of Yuan Jun immediately. With a puff, the crossbow penetrated into the body with blood.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the crossbow shot out of the soldier''s body and went on.


    A series of shots through the body of several soldiers, the crossbow stopped.


    One crossbow is enough to kill five or six soldiers. One hundred crossbows and arrows were fired. Wherever the crossbows and arrows passed, Yuan Jun soldiers who rushed forward would either die or be injured if they were hit by the crossbows and arrows.


    A body, constantly falling to the ground, shocking.


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers who didn''t hit the arrow were all terrified.


    The faces were full of horror.


    They were scared.


    "Go! Give me a rush


    Qu Yi in the rear, also saw the arrow, his eyes deep, showing a dignified.


    But he has no choice.


    Even if the front is a sea of fire, even if the front is an abyss, he must go forward. To defeat Zhang Xiu and destroy her camp, we must go to her camp.


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers were scared, but after all, under Qu Yi''s command, the infantry were still rushing forward quickly. At this time, the cavalry under quyi''s command could not be expected.


    Under the dense bow and arrow, the cavalry was almost completely destroyed.


    It''s too concentrated, after all.


    After the injury did not escape quickly, resulting in heavy losses.


    The infantry braved the rain of arrows, braved the shooting of crossbows, and rushed forward step by step with flesh and blood.


    At every step, countless people die.


    At every step, countless people fell.


    And the distance is gradually shortening.


    Twenty steps!


    Ten steps!


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers, who rushed to the gate of the camp, had a happy look on their faces because they were almost there.


    "Kill


    He ordered it right behind the soldiers.


    "Kill


    One by one soldiers, constantly shouting.


    At this time, both the crossbow and the bow lost their function one after another.


    At close range, bow and arrow fire is invalid.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene, with a faint smile on her lips. If yuan Jun thinks that he can brag at the gate of the camp, that''s a big mistake.


    Huang Zhong as the commander of the general, he resolutely mobilized the long spearmen to come forward. One by one, armed with long guns, soldiers with armor all over rushed out. Long guns of more than ten meters long were stabbed out.


    Yuan''s soldiers, who rushed to the gate of the camp, were killed immediately. A long gun poked at the body of Yuan Jun''s soldiers. In an instant, blood splashed everywhere, and Yuan Jun''s soldiers fell down and died miserably under the long gun.


    Qu Yi also went to the outside of the camp and roared, "spread out and kill me in the camp."


    The soldiers began to disperse.One by one yuan soldiers rushed to the surrounding barracks fence, intending to climb from the fence into the camp. But when they went around the gate of the camp and were ready to climb up the fence, they just rushed over and stepped on it. Alas, they fell down.


    "Puchi!"


    After the foot falls, stepping on the ground, the sole of the foot is punctured immediately.


    Screams came from the soldiers.


    Going to the camp gate, the soldiers who wanted to climb all fell into the pit and were ambushed. In fact, deep ditches were dug outside the camp fence.


    These deep ditches are nearly three feet wide and five feet deep. Inside, there are sharpened wooden piles.


    The top of the ditch was covered with weeds.


    The soldier didn''t notice the trap, stepped on it and fell down.


    The foot was punctured directly.


    This was arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    It was to prevent yuan''s soldiers from attacking around the village. Although such a deep ditch is only three feet wide and five feet deep, it is also like a moat, protecting the safety of the camp.


    Especially in the circle of the camp, which is built with a wooden platform. Soldiers can stand inside and shoot arrows to kill soldiers near the camp.


    So that the attack of Quyi completely lost its effect.


    There''s no way to break into the camp.

 Chapter 509

    In his eyes, his face was dignified. Because he found that no matter how his soldiers attack, it is impossible to defeat Zhang Xiu''s defense.


    It''s so hard!


    Qu Yi frowned and looked worried.


    He always thinks highly of himself. He thinks his martial arts are excellent and can be invincible. He even thought that his ability of unifying the army was invincible and he could conquer everything.


    This time, however, he encountered difficulties.


    "Kill, kill in!"


    Qu Yi roars again, he is not reconciled, if defeated in the hand of Zhang Xiu, he is not willing anyway. What''s more, he hopes to win and meet Yuan Shao, who is about to arrive.


    Quyi ordered to attack continuously in the rain of arrows.


    Zhang Xiu in the camp, seeing the constant attack of Yuan Jun, looks indifferent.


    He had no fear.


    In the camp, soldiers lined up and defended strictly. Even if Yuan Shao''s army came, he was not afraid.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a sentry came from the field.


    "There is still a way for us to enter the camp, led by Zhang Shaochen


    "Explore again!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered him to go down.


    There was a look of thinking in his eyes. In an hour, Zhang Xiu might be able to defeat yuan Jun in front of him.


    Zhang Xiu was also a Veteran General in the army and knew Yuan Shao''s intention of sending vanguards. Yuan Shao''s plan is to let this vanguard force, like a nail, thoroughly nail into Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    In order to facilitate the arrival of Yuan Shao''s army, Zhang Xiu''s army can be successfully captured.


    The problem is that from the beginning, Zhang Xiu had the advantage to wipe out the yuan Army soldiers on a large scale.


    Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to use the defense outside the camp to constantly weaken yuan''s soldiers. But now, Zhang Xiu''s heart, but intend to make changes.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and said in a deep voice: "Hansheng, let the soldiers at the gate of the camp gradually retreat, let the exit son, let yuan Jun enter our front camp."


    "Ah


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong could not help but be surprised and said, "Lord, once the attacking yuan Jun enters the camp, it will be a great threat to us."


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "just got the news, Yuan Shao''s army will arrive in another hour. At this time, we will open our mouth and annihilate yuan Jun, who is a criminal, and give Yuan Shao a slap in the face. "


    An hour!


    Huang Zhong''s eyes narrowed, thinking quickly in his heart.


    As a veteran of the battlefield, Huang Zhong was not just a conservative. He immediately said, "Lord, I agree to introduce yuan Jun into the army. However, I intend to arrange it like this... "


    Immediately, Huang Zhong talked about his arrangement and layout.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu also laughed and said, "what Han Sheng said is very deep in my heart. Let yuan Jun enter the camp this time, that is to encircle and annihilate, send orders. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong ordered immediately.


    With Huang Zhong''s order, the long Gunners at the gate of the camp began to retreat slowly. At the same time, the archers and crossbowmen around the camp retreated quickly.


    With this retreat, Yuan''s soldiers had a chance to breathe, and even more easily entered the camp.


    The army under the command of Quyi had been suppressed.


    In his heart, he was extremely resentful.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s garrison retreats, his soldiers into the camp, quyi heart suddenly ecstatic up. He thinks that this is Zhang Xiu''s invincibility, and is to prepare for evacuation. Qu Yi roared and let the soldiers rush in. His soldiers, along the gate of the camp, continue to pour into the camp.


    Originally, there were more than 10000 people under the command of Quyi.


    In the previous fighting, the soldiers of Quyi lost less than half, leaving more than 7000 soldiers.


    Nowadays, a lot of soldiers are swarming into the camp, constantly killing people in the camp. The soldiers of Yuan army, who had been beaten by pressure before, were depressed in their hearts. Now when they are killed in the camp, they are all crying and killing like hungry wolves.


    "Kill


    Countless yuan soldiers roared.


    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong stayed in town and quickly withdrew from the front camp with the army.


    When approaching Zhongying, the sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Taiwei, all the pioneers of Yuan Jun have entered the camp and are chasing us."


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "beat the drum, let Gan Ning cut off yuan Jun''s back road and encircle yuan Jun!"


    "Here it is


    The sentry has orders. Send them down immediately.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The battle drums resound through the camp.


    The battle drums resound through the world, constantly reverberate, and constantly ring in the barracks. With the sound of war drums, the fierce tiger soldiers led by Gan Ning came out from the rear and quickly cut off the retreat of Qu Yi and others.


    At the same time, Huang Zhong has led the bear Army soldiers to kill.The army led by Qu Yi suddenly fell into a tight encirclement.


    This is Huang Zhong''s arrangement.


    Simple but direct.


    Huang Zhongxian retreated with his army and allowed yuan''s soldiers to enter. Especially after he was frustrated continuously, he was depressed all the time. All of a sudden, the army into Zhang Xiu''s camp, Qu Yi is a force to enter, intent on revenge.


    However, it was besieged.


    Huang Zhong drives his horse to carry the sword. His eyes are full of anger and he is fierce.


    In the past, Huang Zhong commanded the soldiers to defend, but he never took the initiative to attack from the beginning to the end. Although Huang Zhong is willing to defend passively, he doesn''t mean it from the bottom of his heart


    Huang Zhong rushed forward with his knife.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Huang Zhong''s horse spurted. Seeing that Yuan Jun soldiers were standing in the way, he swung his sword and cut it off.


    A cold knife light, in the air flash away.


    "Poof!"


    A round head suddenly soared into the air, and warm blood splashed out.


    Blood spills, heads fall.


    Huang Zhong rushed forward with his knife, but his eyes fell on Qu Yi. Huang Zhong noticed Qu Yi when he was at the gate of the camp and organizing soldiers to resist.


    He knew that quyi was the person in charge of the yuan Army soldier.


    Kill quyi to end the war.


    He doesn''t have much time, only one hour. Once the time dragged on, or Yuan Shao''s army, they suddenly went to the camp first. Then, Huang Zhong''s plan to encircle and annihilate quyi may be broken.


    "Da! Dada


    Huang Zhong rushed forward with his knife. In a twinkling of an eye, he was in front of Qu Yi.


    Quyi also met Huang Zhong.


    As a general under Yuan Shao''s command, Qu Yi''s martial arts are only lower than Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and stronger than Zhang Yan''s. As soon as he saw Huang Zhong slaughtering his soldiers, Qu Yi rushed up with a knife.


    "Kill


    Qu Yi drinks low, the long knife turns in the air, swings and cuts toward Huang Zhong.


    The blade is bright and sharp.


    If this knife was cut at Huang Zhong''s waist, it would be enough to cut Huang Zhong in half. It''s just that Qu Yi''s blade just got up before Huang Zhong''s body. Huang Zhong''s sword has been cut off.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    The blade of Quyi was knocked open.


    Huang Zhong''s legs clamped the horse''s belly and stood firmly on the horse''s back. He shook his strength, held the long sword tightly in both hands, and then cut it off. As a strong general on horseback, Huang Zhong not only has rich experience in combat, but also dares to fight and kill.


    His knife fell, blocking the retreat of Qu Yi, making Qu Yi unavoidable, only to block with a knife.


    When the blade falls, Huang Zhong''s strength increases.


    The power increases layer by layer. When the blade falls on quyi''s blade, the power bursts out completely. In a flash, the impact of the force, such as the mountain call tsunami, more like a flood, surging, irresistible.


    "Dang!"


    A harsh voice came out.


    The expression on Qu Yi''s face changed greatly.


    The first time he met Huang Zhong, he didn''t think the strength of the other side was strong. But now a fight, the force of the tsunami from the mountain, he is difficult to resist.


    The tiger''s mouth tears at once.


    Under the severe pain, he could not hold the handle of the knife in his hand, and the long knife was knocked out.


    The blade is still falling.


    "My life is over!"


    The look on Qu Yi''s face raised a look of despair. He always thinks highly of himself. Unexpectedly, when he meets Huang Zhong, he will lose.


    Huang Zhong''s blade is indomitable.


    "Yes


    The blade fell and cut Qu Yi''s neck.


    As the blade passed, a blood line appeared on Qu Yi''s neck. With the blood line cracking, blood splashing out, Qu Yi''s head flew up. The headless head passed in the air and fell to the ground.


    Quyi''s body also fell to the ground immediately.


    Huang Zhong knew that this was the chief General of Yuan Jun. after he killed Qu Yi, he drove his horse to bend down and fished out his hand. Then he fished out Qu Yi''s head and tied it to his waist.

 Chapter 510

    "Kill


    Huang Zhong cut off Qu Yi with one knife, and then raised his troops to fight again, killing all the soldiers under Qu Yi''s command. Originally, Yuan''s soldiers were surrounded, but they could fight again and fight bravely.


    However, after Qu Yi was killed, the news of Qu Yi''s death came out on a small scale. But gradually, many soldiers yelled that quyi had been killed, so that Yuan''s soldiers were terrified.


    The resistance was greatly reduced.


    Under such circumstances, more yuan Jun soldiers were killed or injured.


    "I surrender!"


    In the crowd, there was the first yuan soldier to surrender.


    "I surrender, I will surrender!"


    "Don''t kill me!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more yuan Army soldiers choose to kneel down and surrender, and dare not resist. Even those who are so powerful have been killed, and they are not willing to resist.


    Huang Zhong led the soldiers to kill the recalcitrant soldiers, and some soldiers took over the weapons of the surrender soldiers.


    The whole process took less than half an hour.


    The war is over.


    Huang Zhongxian quickly arranged the defense of the camp, cleaned the corpses at the gate of the camp, and arranged again. Then he got the news from the soldiers and knew the result of the battle.


    Through the war report that came up below, he knew that Qu Yi was the one who killed Yuan Shao''s general.


    Huang Zhong came to Zhang Xiu''s camp and reported: "Lord, in this battle, we killed nearly 7000 yuan soldiers and captured nearly 3000 people. In this war, Qu Yi, a senior general of Yuan''s army, was killed in his humble position. His head has been sealed with lime. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed a happy smile.


    It was a good fight.


    Yuan Shao''s vanguard army of more than 10000 people, all destroyed, for Yuan Shao, it was a slap in the face.


    Of course, the reason why we can completely annihilate the other side is that we are arrogant.


    Quyi led his troops to attack Zhang Xiu''s camp. For unknown reasons, he directly attacked with cavalry, so that the most elite cavalry was defeated at the beginning. Quyi once again let the infantry attack, but also repeatedly ambushed, constant damage.


    Continuous attack, huge loss.


    When Zhang Xiu took the initiative to retreat and deliberately let yuan Jun enter the camp, Qu Yi did not think at all and went deep into it alone.


    As a matter of fact, if Qu Yi had one more thought, after the army entered the camp, it would just stay at the gate of the camp and no longer go deep, then Zhang Xiu''s plan of luring the enemy to go deep would not work.


    Zhang Xiu can only come back again and kill quyi out of the camp.


    But he didn''t want to.


    At the beginning, Qu Yi damaged the cavalry. After the huge loss, he intended to pull back a city and wanted to enter the camp.


    On the contrary, they are also involved in it.


    Zhang Xiu knows about Qu Yi. She is a brave general.


    Because of his loyalty, Yuan Shao was able to turn the tide in the battle of Jieqiao, thus reversing the situation with Gongsun Zan. Otherwise, Yuan Shao would have to be beaten by Gongsun Zan all the time.


    You should know that Gongsun Zan was not a vassal of the Central Plains, but a vassal of the northern region. He fought with Wuhuan and Xianbei all the year round and had rich experience in fighting. He was a very difficult man.


    Yuan Shao was also afraid of Gongsun Zan.


    Yuan Shao not only wanted to annex Gongsun Zan''s Youzhou, but also feared Gongsun Zan.


    Now, another strong general of Yuan Shao has been killed again.


    However, in history, Qu Yi was killed by Yuan Shao because of his pride.


    Yuan Shao is a very headstrong man, always proud. People like Yuan Shao can''t stand this. When Qu Yi is useful, or when it is still used, Qu Yi will not be killed.


    As long as quyi loses its use value, it is time to die.


    Zhang Xiu said, "get ready. Yuan Shao is coming."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    After Huang Zhong retired, Zhang Xiu thought about dealing with Yuan Shao. Next, Yuan Shao arrived. When he saw that Qu Yi had been killed, he would be angry, which can be used.


    Time goes by little.


    All of a sudden, outside the barracks, came the mighty sound of war drums.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    Drums rumble, ringing inside and outside the camp.


    The rhythm of the drums in this war is very different, with a unique rhythm.


    Hearing the sound of war drums coming from outside, Zhang Xiu immediately stood up from the seat, took his armor, put it on, strode out of the Chinese army tent and went to the gate of the camp.


    When Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the camp, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others all gathered together.


    Everyone, look outside the camp.


    Outside the camp, there was not only the sound of drums, but also the sound of horns. Two kinds of sounds are interwoven in the air, forming a unique rhythm.


    Black army, line up outside the camp.


    All Yuan Shao''s troops arrived.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept, directly locked Yuan Shao''s body. Zhang Xiu never met Yuan Shao, because in the first world, Yuan Shao led the princes to attack Dong Zhuo in the battle of hulaoguan, but Zhang Xiu did not take part in it.After Zhang Xiu established herself in Wan County, she was attacked by Cao Cao. After she became obedient to Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu never went to the front line or saw Yuan Shao. She just knew Yuan Shao.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu directly recognized Yuan Shao.


    The reason is very simple. Yuan Shao wears gold armor and helmet, and looks like a wretch, for fear that people will not recognize him.


    "Da! Dada


    At this time, yuan shaoce immediately went to the front.


    At Yuan Shao''s side, he had his own guards to protect him. But the look on Yuan Shao''s face was dignified, because the camp in front of him was clean, as if there was no war.


    Mingyi is here. What about Keren?


    In the previous fight outside the camp, there was a lot of blood and soaked the ground. But Huang Zhong arranged for soldiers to clean up the corpses and people to transport them to the sand and spread them directly on the ground. After walking back and forth for several times, the ground was clean and there was no trace of the fight.


    Even Yuan Shao did not know whether the soldiers led by Qu Yi had ever been here.


    But yuan Shaoming arranged for Qu Yi to come.


    This is a question in Yuan Shao''s mind.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Yuan Shao, who drove his horse out, also went to the gate of the camp, she said in a loud voice, "Yuan Shao, as a general appointed by the imperial court, what''s your intention to lead the troops to invade Hanoi County today?"


    Yuan Shao raised his head and threw a voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, you killed countless people during your stay in Guanzhong. Not only that, you slaughtered my subordinates, Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Today, I''m here to attack you. Zhang Xiu, if you lead the soldiers to surrender now, and no longer resist, I can open up one side and not kill you. "


    At this time, Yuan Shao''s usual practice was to surrender first.


    If Zhang Xiu is frightened and makes him fall without fighting, he can directly enter Guanzhong and control Guanzhong.


    Of course, Yuan Shao is just thinking about it.


    Yuan Shao also knows that this is not an easy thing.


    Zhang Xiu heard Yuan Shao''s words, but she laughed.


    Yuan Benchu is really naive.


    I want to surrender him!


    But Zhang Xiu''s heart is full of banter, ready to play with Yuan Shao. In front of countless soldiers of the two armies, he would like to see how Yuan Shao would respond?

 Chapter 511

    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "yuan Benchu, if I submit to you, what official position can you give me? You know, I''m now one of the three princes appointed by the emperor. The imperial edict is just as the name says. "


    When Yuan Shao heard this, he was very happy.


    Zhang Xiu is an interesting boy.


    Perhaps, it is possible to surrender Zhang Xiu.


    Xu you is not far behind Yuan Shao. As soon as he hears Zhang Xiu''s words, he quickly drives his horse forward to Yuan Shao and reminds him, "Lord, don''t be bewitched by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is very cunning. He can''t believe his words. "


    "Back off!"


    Yuan Shao big sleeve a whisk, scold a way.


    For Xu you, Yuan Shao is not happy now.


    Because today''s Xu you, when it comes to Zhang Xiu, becomes timid and timid. Such Xu you, Yuan Shao does not like, more feel that Xu you in front of Zhang Xiu was scared out of courage, unable to face Zhang Xiu.


    Xu you opened his mouth to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, Yuan Shao glared at him. He could only swallow them back and did not dare to speak at will.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are ready to submit to me. That''s the current affairs. As long as you are obedient, you will still be an officer. In addition, you will continue to be in charge of Guanzhong. "


    "Is that all?"


    Zhang Xiu spoke.


    He was even more disdainful, and Yuan Shao was nothing more.


    A solicitation, such a joke.


    Yuan Shao raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, I''ve put up with you to stay in Guanzhong and let you continue to be the Taiwei. I''ve already looked up to you. You can also enjoy the glory and wealth and keep your present foundation. If you refuse, your end will be nothing but ashes. "


    Yuan Shao is very proud.


    From the bottom of his heart, he looks down on Zhang Xiu.


    Even the so-called surrender is Yuan Shao''s superficial skill. As long as Zhang Xiu is obedient, Yuan Shao will first stabilize Zhang Xiu, then gradually seize power, completely impractical Zhang Xiu, and finally annex her power.


    this is Yuan Shao''s plan.


    After hearing Yuan Shao''s words, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang Xiu is very grateful for general yuan''s kindness. In order to thank general yuan for his kindness, I specially prepared a beautiful gift for general yuan. "


    "Come on, bring it up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Next, a soldier came forward with a brocade box in his hand.


    Zhang Xiubai pointed to Yuan Shao and said, "send it to general yuan and put it under general yuan''s horse."


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers were ordered, they came forward immediately.


    At this moment, the soldier holding the brocade box in his hand was worried, for fear of being killed. The soldier came to Yuan Shao, put down the brocade box and ran back.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "general, please have a look."


    Yuan Shao looks at the brocade box on the ground with doubts in his eyes. At this time, the accompanying soldiers had already picked it up and were ready to hand it to Yuan Shao, but Yuan Shao didn''t take it over. Instead, he told the soldiers to open it.


    When the soldier opened it, there was a pale, eyeball protruding head inside.


    "Ah


    The soldier gave a scream of fright.


    At this time, the soldier shook his hand and threw the brocade box on the ground. The head of Qu Yi in the brocade box rolled out directly, rolled on the ground for a while, and then stopped.


    "Gudong!"


    Yuan Shao couldn''t help swallowing his saliva when he saw his head on the ground.


    He looked carefully and his eyes widened.


    It''s a good idea!


    This is the body of the emperor.


    All the people in the rear also saw the corpses on the ground. Many people know Qu Yi. Seeing that Qu Yi is dead and his head is sealed with lime, they immediately talk about it.


    For a moment, there was an uproar!


    Yuan Shao looked back and saw the comments of his soldiers. Then he looked up and saw Zhang Xiu''s banter. Suddenly he understood.


    Zhang Xiu did it on purpose.


    This is playing with him!


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Zhang Xiu, you are deceiving people too much."


    At this moment, Yuan Shao''s anger rose and his chest was full of anger.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "yuan Benchu, is it my official who deceives others too much, or do you think you are right, or you don''t know how important it is. I''m in Guanzhong, and I never take the initiative to provoke anyone. "


    "It''s you, Yuan Shao, who sent Yan Liang and led his troops to attack Guanzhong and enter the jurisdiction of our official."


    "I''m the captain of Sili school, in charge of Guanzhong. You have to send Yan Liang to Guanzhong. "


    "Because of Yuan Shao''s self righteousness, Yan Liang died."


    "After Yan Liang''s defeat, my official took back Hanoi, but you didn''t give up. You sent Zhang Yan and Wen Chou. Then Wen Chou died on the battlefield. "


    Zhang Xiu''s voice became more and more intense and continued: "because of your greed, Wenchou died. From the beginning to the end, I have never violated your jurisdiction. ""All this is because you, Yuan Shao, are self righteous, leading to the loss of troops."


    "Now, you say I''m lying too much."


    "I''m afraid there''s something wrong with my brain."


    "If you are ill, go back to Jizhou early and find a doctor to treat you. If it can''t be cured, either Hua Tuo or Zhang Zhongjing, I can invite them to treat you. "


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, Yuan Shao was already angry.


    Zhang Xiu is a hateful boy!


    It''s time to kill!


    If he doesn''t kill Zhang Xiu, he will never stop.


    Just as Yuan Shao was ready to speak, Zhang Xiu said again, "if you want to fight Yuan Shao, I will accompany you to the end. How many people you come, how many people I kill. It''s a lesson from the past. "


    In the words, there is strength.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong stood behind Zhang Xiu, shouting.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    The generals and even the soldiers in the army began to shout together. Uniform soldiers shout, resounding in the barracks, echoing endlessly.


    The morale of the soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army has been stimulated.


    But Yuan Shao''s face was as deep as water.


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp mouth is really difficult. In particular, Yuan Shao''s face was cold and fierce. He looked around for a while. There was no sign of fighting around him. How did quyi die.


    You know, there are many soldiers under quyi''s command, and how did they die.


    More than 10000 people.


    Ten thousand elite soldiers are not a single person. More than ten thousand suddenly disappeared, especially involving cavalry.


    However, they were all destroyed.


    Listening to the shouts of the soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army, Xu you came to Yuan Shao again and said in a low voice: "Lord, Zhang Xiu''s sharp mouth is enough to withstand tens of thousands of troops. Your verbal confrontation with him helps to boost his morale. I suggest that you don''t have to talk nonsense with Zhang Xiu, just go to war. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao finally nodded.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao believed Xu you''s words. Yuan Shao didn''t speak to Zhang Xiu any more. He transferred his horses and returned to the front of the army. He gave the order to attack.


    In this attack, Yuan Shao directly sent 10000 people forward.


    The black soldiers attacked in a fierce manner.


    This offensive is different from the previous one. When ten thousand people come forward, they are well prepared. They not only have shields, but also have armor on the soldiers, which can protect themselves to the greatest extent.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the yuan soldiers attacking, she didn''t feel nervous. She just asked Huang Zhong to send his troops to resist.


    This time, the fighting is more fierce.


    Because Yuan''s soldiers were more effective and less careless than before. The soldiers who rush forward have no Tribulus Terrestris on the ground, but even if they have holes, they can attack infantry, which can not be affected.


    The two sides started fighting at the gate of the barracks.


    Fighting goes on and on.


    For a time, the war was very fierce.


    Yuan Shao''s soldiers kept falling on the road of attack, but gradually some yuan soldiers came to the gate of the camp, but Huang Zhong was calm and commanding, but he was able to resist the attack of Yuan Shao''s army.


    The battle lasted from morning to afternoon.


    There was no rest at noon.


    However, the war is still stalemate, Yuan Shao''s soldiers, paid a heavy price, but also still failed to conquer Zhang Xiu''s barracks. In the evening, yuan Shaojian was unable to enter the camp and ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.


    Zhang Xiu saw the retreating Yuan Shao army, squinting into a line in her eyes.


    This war has just begun.

 Chapter 512

    Deep night, Yuan Jun camp.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    The look on Yuan Shao''s face was very cold, and there was more anger in his eyes.


    I''m dead!


    To sum up, it is equivalent to his two attacks on Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    Yuan Shao did not pay attention to Zhang Xiu from the beginning. Yuan Shao believed that Zhang Xiu''s attack should be extremely easy, even easy to capture.


    At the end of the day, he lost all his troops at the expense of the army and did not get any good.


    This is Yuan Shao''s most angry.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes were gloomy. He swept all the counsellors under his command and said in a deep voice, "what do you think of today''s events? Zhang Xiu is so difficult. How can we beat her? "


    Xu you initiative way: "Lord, Zhang Xiu this son, not easy to deal with."


    "The LORD sent 100000 soldiers to dangyin county. As soon as the war started, quyi died in the battlefield, and the soldiers also suffered heavy losses. Today''s losses alone have exceeded 10000 people. "


    "Our original troops were more than 20000 people than Zhang Xiu. Now we have lost more than 10000 yuan, and the strength of both sides is almost even. Our strength is not much better than that of Zhang Xiu. "


    "I think it''s not a wise choice to fight with Zhang Xiu."


    Xu you said, "I think it''s better to go north to Youzhou to attack Gongsun Zan than to fight against Zhang Xiu in dangyin county. Let''s get rid of Gongsun Zan''s worries. My humble duty is loyal and harsh. Please think twice. "


    "Shut up


    Hearing Xu you''s words, Yuan Shao yelled: "Xu Ziyuan, if you don''t want to fight, go back to Yecheng immediately. He fought with Yuan Shao in this battle, but he did not defeat Zhang Xiu and vowed not to give up. "


    "Alas..."


    But Xu you sighed.


    He doesn''t think Yuan Shao can defeat Zhang Xiu, because he is already desperate in the face of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    Guo Tu said: "Lord, there is a way to defeat Zhang Xiu."


    Yuan Shao leaned forward slightly. He was immediately excited and asked, "what''s your plan?"


    Guo Tu replied: "the humble position suggests that when the Lord and Zhang Xiu''s army confront each other, he should send a surprise force to bypass Zhang Xiu''s camp and go straight to the county seat of dangyin county."


    "All Zhang Xiu''s troops are in the barracks outside dangyin county."


    "Obviously, the defense of the county must be insufficient."


    "Under this premise, as long as we take dangyin County, it will be a fatal blow to Zhang Xiu. And we have a foothold. On the contrary, it is Zhang Xiu, who has no base. "


    After a pause, Guo Tu continued: "even when we attack dangyin County, Zhang Xiu sends troops to leave the barracks and go to dangyin County for rescue. Then, it means that we have mobilized the army of Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu can no longer shrink into the camp. "


    "Take this opportunity, we can fight Zhang Xiu in the open field."


    "Of course, Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning. He may also consider the shortage of troops in dangyin county and arrange people to rush to dangyin County overnight to strengthen the defensive forces of dangyin county."


    Guo Tu zhengse way: "so humble advice, overnight sent soldiers, ambush on the way.". If Zhang Xiu sent troops, he would defeat them. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t send soldiers, that''s all. It doesn''t affect us


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Yuan Shao''s eyes were even more shining.


    It''s a great opportunity!


    Yuan Shao now stormed Zhang Xiu''s camp, and his soldiers suffered heavy losses. Rao is so, can''t break Zhang Xiu turtle shell. Adopting Guo Tu''s strategy can break Zhang Xiu''s defense and let Zhang Xiu take the initiative to attack, which is extremely beneficial to Yuan Shao.


    After thinking about it, Professor Ju replied, "my Lord, Guo Tu''s strategy is good. But I think we can''t underestimate Zhang Xiu''s ability. Both the humble and the Lord hoped that Guo Tu''s strategy would succeed. But what if it fails? If we fail, it will be difficult for us to defeat Zhang Xiu. I think we should make another plan to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    "What strategy?" Yuan Shao asked.


    Yuan Shao had a lot of trust in Jushi, who was his most trusted counselor.


    Ju replied: "the war between the Lord and Zhang Xiu does not have to be limited to the battle in dangyin county. The Lord''s strength far exceeds that of Zhang Xiu. In particular, Bingzhou under the jurisdiction of the Lord also borders Guanzhong. "


    "Please send an order to Bingzhou high-ranking officials to mobilize a large army to attack Hedong county and fight from Hedong to Chang''an."


    "Zhang Xiu sent troops, the rear must be empty."


    "Gao Gan sent troops from Bingzhou, which not only attacked the rear of Zhang Xiu, but also made it difficult for her to take care of her head and tail."


    "Please think twice," he said


    Gao Gan is Yuan Shao''s nephew.


    After Yuan Shao took control of Jizhou, Gao Gan was appointed as the animal husbandry officer of Bingzhou.


    Today''s Bingzhou is run by senior cadres.


    "Wonderful! Wonderful


    Yuan Shao''s eyes flashed brilliance, but his face was very happy. He thought that the proposal put forward by him was extremely ingenious. He and Zhang Xiu are fighting like a raging fire in dangyin county. Suddenly, the rear of Zhang Xiu collapses, food supplies are gone, and money is gone. Zhang Xiu''s army must be in turmoil, and it is impossible to fight again.Yuan Shao immediately picked up the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote an order, and gave it to Jushou. He asked Jushou to send someone to quickly pass it on to the senior cadres in Bingzhou, and let them take action.


    Yuan Shao is happy at the moment.


    Previously in front of Zhang Xiu, bear the depression, also completely dissipated, because he found a chance to revenge.


    It is not difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao once again said, "do you still have a plan to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    When talking, Yuan Shao glanced at Xu you intentionally or unintentionally, and his face was full of disdain. Originally, Yuan Shao valued Xu you very much. After all, Xu you was talented and an old friend of his. But now, Yuan Shao finds it difficult to use Xu you.


    Because Xu you is afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao doesn''t like to reuse people who are scared to death.


    Feng Ji said, "Lord, there is a way to do humble work."


    "What strategy?" Yuan Shao asked.


    Feng Ji took the initiative to say: "Zhang Xiu''s 80000 troops live outside the city of dangyin County, consuming countless grains every day. Such an army needs a lot of food supplies. The grain road is the key. If we can intercept Zhang Xiu''s grain road, or even destroy his grain transportation team, Zhang Xiu will surely be defeated. "


    "It''s too hard!"


    Although Yuan Shao is very resourceful, he is not a fool. He said in a deep voice: "with Zhang Xiu''s cunning, he is bound to be on guard. The most important thing is that this is Hanoi county. It''s in Zhang Xiu''s territory. It''s almost impossible to cut off Zhang Xiu''s grain supply. "


    Feng Ji said: "my Lord is wise, but he is not considerate in his humble position."


    Yuan Shao said with a smile: "this is just a strategy to deal with Zhang Xiu. As long as you have an idea, you can say it. It''s better to have ideas than to be timid. "


    When he spoke, Yuan Shao took another look at Xu you.


    Xu you''s cheek twitched and his face looked embarrassed because Yuan Shao aimed at him again.


    Feng Ji noticed Xu you''s manner, and a touch of sarcasm flashed across his mouth, but he soon recovered his calm.


    Judge match suddenly way: "Lord, humble position also has a strategy."


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the plan for Zhengnan?"


    Zhengnan, it''s a matching character.


    "Lord, we are at war with Yuan Shao. In fact, we forget that there is still an army in dangyin county that can be used," he said


    "What army?" Yuan Shao asked


    The judge replied, "Black Mountain army!"


    Yuan Shao frowned and said with disdain, "Zhengnan, do you mean to take advantage of Zhang Yan?"


    "Yes


    The judge replied: "Zhang Yan, the black mountain army, lurks in the black mountain in dangyin county. Zhang Yan has a large number of troops, tens of thousands of elite. As long as Zhang Yan is convinced to make an alliance with us, and both sides attack Zhang Xiu, it is as easy as a palm to win. "


    "No need!"


    Yuan Shao said with a brush: "it''s impossible for me to make an alliance with Zhang Yan. This damned Zhang Yan has attacked Jizhou several times, and even secretly colluded with Gongsun Zan. My official wants to kill Zhang Yan and then quickly. Due south, don''t talk about your suggestion. In any case, I can''t unite with Zhang Yan. "


    Hearing this, the judge sighed.


    What a pity!


    If Zhang Yan''s forces are used, it will be a great threat to Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, Yuan Shao didn''t want to.


    Yuan Shao avoided talking about Zhang Yan''s business. After a change of words, he asked, "how about another night attack on Zhang Xiu''s camp?"


    "No way!"


    I''ll give you a direct answer.


    Yuan shaodao: "why?"


    Ju replied: "we attacked Zhang Xiu in the daytime, and we didn''t gain any advantage. We also saw that there were traps near Zhang Xiu''s camp. It doesn''t help much to attack at night. "


    Yuan Shao said: "it''s nothing, it''s nothing. Even the military strategists say that. It''s certainly useless. Now the plan is drawn up, and tomorrow morning, we will act according to the plan. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Then, all the people got up and left to do what they were doing.

 Chapter 513

    In Zhang Xiu''s camp, as before.


    Because of the arrival of Yuan Shao''s army, there was no chaos in the army, let alone any uproar.


    On the contrary, the soldiers are full of fighting spirit.


    On the one hand, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command followed Zhang Xiu through countless wars, won many battles and never failed. These soldiers have built up a fighting spirit from the bottom of their hearts.


    They won''t be afraid just because it''s Yuan Shao. No matter Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, or others, the soldiers in the army dare to fight.


    On the other hand, the soldiers believed in Zhang Xiu.


    Under the leadership of Zhang Xiu, they will win in battle and conquer in attack. The soldiers have regarded Zhang Xiu as a god of war and believe that Zhang Xiu can win. This is the soldiers'' trust in Zhang Xiu.


    That''s what makes the soldiers fearless.


    Especially in the daytime World War I, Yuan Shao''s general Qu Yi was killed, Yuan Shao''s army suffered a huge loss, while Zhang Xiu''s soldiers suffered little loss, which laid the foundation for the victory. The initial fighting also laid the foundation for the high morale of the soldiers.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Sima Yi, Wang Yue and others took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at several people and said in a deep voice: "today''s World War I, we suppressed Yuan Shao''s arrogance and inspired the soldiers. Although today''s war has only made a good start, it is very good. What do you think of the next fight? "


    Dressed in armor, Huang Zhong said, "Lord, I''ve been thinking about today''s situation."


    "If we attack yuan Shaoyin, we may attack the county. Once Yuan Shao has won the county seat of dangyin County, he will have a foothold in dangyin county. "


    "Instead, we were driven out of the county and lost our foothold."


    "After all, there is plenty of water in the city, and Yuan Shao has plenty of food. With the help of the city wall, he is as stable as Mount Tai."


    "It''s really bad for us to get there," Huang said


    Gan Ning clenched his fist and said, "I agree with Lao Huang''s analysis. Knowing that Yuan Shao''s army might attack the county. Well, we''ll send some troops into the city overnight to guard the city. As long as Yuan Shao''s troops go to attack, they will give him a blow. "


    Chen zhengse said: "since Yuan Shao attacked the county, we will fight against him and attack Yuan Shao''s camp. Harassing Yuan Shao''s army. In this way, it is impossible for Yuan Shao to seize the county seat. "


    Zhang Xiu listens to the public''s analysis and nods to show approval.


    Everyone''s analysis is reasonable.


    It''s just, it''s not systematic.


    And it''s not comprehensive.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes, however, fell on Sima Yi''s face and asked, "Zhongda, how do you think about it?"


    Sima Yi replied, "my Lord, I agree with the analysis of General Huang, general Gan and General Chen, but I don''t agree with the plan to deal with Yuan Shao."


    "Before returning to Chang''an, I met Jia Shangshu of the Ministry of war in a humble position, and asked him for knowledge and military tactics."


    "Jia Shangshu said that the best way to use military force is to follow the trend and make a plan, and to make a plan out of the blue."


    Sima Yi said: "only in this way can we make the best use of a strategy."


    Zhang Xiu said, "tell me what you think."


    Zhang Xiu had high hopes for Sima Yi. Although Sima Yi was young, it did not affect his strategy.


    Sima Yi replied, "according to general Gan, soldiers were arranged to go to the county town overnight. What if Yuan Shao has arranged for the army to ambush outside this evening, waiting for us to go


    "Once we rush to aid dangyin County, we are vulnerable to ambush."


    "As for the camp that attacked Yuan Shao, the layout of Yuan Shao''s camp was also very strict. It takes more power to attack the camp city. "


    "We are now fit to preserve power."


    "After all, with Pang Tong in command, the Montenegrin army will become a wonder force."


    "Besides, Yang Xiu went north to Youzhou. Once Yang Xiu convinced Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan set up troops in Yuan Shao''s rear. Then it''s good for the Lord. "


    Sima Yi said: "I think the best way is to preserve strength."


    Huang Zhong said, "don''t you send troops?"


    "No, fight!"


    Sima Yi shook her head and said: "as I said just now, we should take advantage of the situation, and the means of sending troops should be surprise. Since Yuan Shao may attack dangyin County, he is allowed to seize dangyin county. "


    "What we have to do is to pass orders to the magistrate of dangyin County, so that he can resist the attack first."


    "If you can''t stop it, retreat."


    "In addition, the royal guards in dangyin county were mobilized to pour laxatives into all wells near the barracks in the city. If the poison is spilled, it''s easy to be found. After all, Yuan Shao''s people get water, and they will identify the water source. "


    "Laxatives are different. They just cause diarrhea. Unless you drink them, you can''t find them out.""When Yuan Shao''s troops entered the city, they could only be stationed in barracks. After all, the location of the barracks in the city is so wide. And after they are stationed, they will fall into the trap as long as they divert water. "


    Sima Yi said, "although such a plot is not fatal, it can greatly weaken Yuan Shao''s forces."


    "If we attack the city, we can weaken Yuan Shao''s forces again."


    "Of course, such a strategy can not achieve the effect of beating Yuan Shao in one go. Even Yuan Shao''s army was protected by the wall of dangyin County, so it was very difficult to defeat Yuan Shao''s army. "


    "But we can still weaken Yuan Shao."


    Sima Yi said: "as long as Yuan Shao''s strength is weakened, this is equal to our strength. With the actions of Yang Xiu and Pang Tong, we will have an absolute advantage in this war. There is no need to be in a hurry for success in a war, just to fight steadily step by step. "


    Although Sima Yi was young, she was talented. Especially in the short time of Chang''an, Sima Yi asked Li Ru for advice and Jia Xu for advice. He was like a sponge, constantly learning from experience.


    Therefore, there is a period of rapid growth.


    Sima Yi said, "the humble proposal may not be well considered. Please make a decision."


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile of approval on her face and said: "Zhongda said very well about the arrangement in dangyin county. Starting from the source of water of Yuan Shao''s army is a new way. You can try it. "


    "If you can, you are the best."


    "No, it doesn''t matter."


    "But when we send soldiers to dangyin County tonight, we know that Yuan Shao''s army may ambush. Why don''t we do it? If Yuan Shao didn''t send troops to ambush, let it go. "


    "But if Yuan Shao sends troops to ambush, we can take advantage of the situation to swallow Yuan Shao''s troops. As Zhong Da said just now, what we need to do is to nibble at Yuan Shao''s power and make the situation change from one side to the other. "


    "In the end, Yuan Shao was completely weakened, making us absolutely superior."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so, we have to send troops at night to lead the snake out of the cave."


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Gan Ning and said, "Xing Ba, the ambush tonight is up to you to mobilize the fierce tiger army. As long as there is Yuan Shao''s ambush, we must eat them all. "


    "I understand


    Gan Ning grinned and said, "as long as Yuan Shao dares to send troops, his humble position will completely annihilate the other side."


    Chen Zhi said with a smile: "general Gan, don''t you need the assistance of Langya camp?"


    Gan Ning thought about it carefully. Originally, he didn''t want Chen Dao to help, because his own fierce tiger army also had cavalry. But after thinking about it, he said, "Uncle Zhi, I really need you. You arrange some cavalry of Langya camp to lurk near Yuan Shao''s camp. In case, when Yuan Shao and I ambush each other, Yuan Shao will send troops to help, and you are responsible for blocking it. "


    "No problem!"


    Chen Dao answered directly.


    Now that there is no war, he is willing to lead the troops to fight.

 Chapter 514

    On the official road leading to the north of dangyin County, a team of soldiers ambushed in the bush.


    The army in ambush is Yuan Shao''s army. Yuan Shao adopted the strategy of half ambush and arranged his generals to lead 6000 elite soldiers to ambush in the bushes, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s army to rush to the county seat of dangyin county.


    The leader was named yuan Chou.


    This man is a son of the yuan family. As far as relations are concerned, he is a cousin of Yuan Shao. He is a little younger than Yuan Shao. He has just turned 40 and is rich in experience.


    He did not have to succeed in bringing troops to ambush this time. If there is an army way, he will attack. If Zhang Xiu''s army had no way here, he would not care.


    It''s march now. Although it''s chilly at night, it''s not as cold as the previous winter. So Yuan Shao''s soldiers can barely bear it.


    After the early spring, the plants sprout, and the bushes are lush.


    It''s hard to see people because of the luxuriant foliage.


    Yuan Chou was hiding with his soldiers, especially in the dark. Little by little, an hour and a half slipped away, and it was almost early in the morning.


    At this time, even the waning moon of early spring is hidden in the clouds.


    The soldiers under yuan Chou''s command were impatient.


    It''s been over an hour.


    But no one has come yet.


    One of Yuan Chou''s generals said, "general, we''ve been waiting for more than an hour. After a while, it''s only two hours, but we haven''t seen anyone. In my opinion, there won''t be Zhang Xiu''s army here tonight. Why don''t you let the brothers take a rest! "


    His name was Gao Biao. In his early thirties, he was an old general in the army and a marquis under yuan Chou.


    His fighting experience is quite rich.


    Yuan Chou snorted and scolded: "Biao Zi, you are also a veteran of the battlefield. You are well-informed. Ambush at night, how can children play. Even if you bite your teeth tonight, you''ll have to make it. What if Zhang Xiu''s army comes when we have a rest? "


    Gao Biao said: "the general taught me a lesson!"


    Yuan Chou thought about it and said, "divide the soldiers in the army into two teams. One team is in charge of the guard and the other team is in charge of the rest. It''s a rotation every hour, one by one. "


    Gao Biao said happily, "the general is wise. It''s very kind of you."


    "Well, come on." Yuan Chou waved his hand and said, "go and arrange it."


    "Here it is


    Gao Biao stood up and was ready to make arrangements.


    But just as Gao Biao stood up, all of a sudden, he heard yuan Chou say in a deep voice: "wait a minute!"


    "What''s the matter?"


    Gao Biao stopped, looked at Yuan Chou and said, "what''s your order, general?"


    Yuan Chou raised his finger to the distance and said, "look at the distance. It''s about 300 feet away. Is there a flash of fire. Our position is not high. There is no high ground. We can''t see clearly. Look carefully. Is there a fire coming towards us


    Gao Biao looked up and widened his eyes. There was a look of excitement on his rough cheek, and he said happily: "there is a light of fire, general, if there is a light of fire. It must be Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "Good!"


    Yuan Chou was overjoyed.


    He had been waiting for more than an hour, and his whole body was cold. Although it was cold, it was not in vain for Zhang Xiu''s army to rush to dangyin county.


    Yuan Chou ordered: "Biaozi, pass on the order. Everyone cheer up for Lao Tzu, pull out the knife and polish it. Next, it''s time to fight. Who advised me? After the war, I''ll clean it up one by one. "


    "Here it is


    Gao Biao was ordered to go down immediately.


    On both sides of the official road, Yuan Jun''s soldiers have been ready to wait.


    Everyone, get ready to fight.


    The distance is getting closer, from 300 Zhang to 200 Zhang, and finally to 100 Zhang. At such a distance, we can see clearly the light of the fire, and even the shadow of people.


    It''s just that you can''t see the real face.


    Yuan Chou lowered his voice and said, "Biao Zi, let the brothers not rush to start, waiting for my order."


    "I understand!"


    Gao Biao made a gesture, and a soldier gave an order.


    All yuan Jun, ambush quietly.


    The distance is still getting closer.


    The leader of the fierce tiger army, named Li Fan, was a legitimate general under Ganning, and was the first Jinfan thief to follow Ganning. Li Fan was only 26 years old, but he was already a valiant general in the army and was highly valued by Gan Ning.


    This time, it was Li Fan who led the army.


    When Li Fan came, he got Gan Ning''s command and knew that he would be ambushed on the way to dangyin County by pretending to lead his troops.


    At the end of the day, he''s a decoy.


    Li Fan is willing.


    As a general in the fierce tiger army, there are no people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. On the contrary, they are people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, which is the most despised. Once the top of the reputation of fear of death, this life in the fierce tiger army is over.Gan Ning often educated the soldiers of the fierce tiger army to fight and kill. Ganning''s example is the cavalry of Langya camp. At the beginning, a thousand excellent cavalry of Langya camp, faced with the attack of thousands of excellent cavalry of Ma Chao, vowed not to retreat.


    At the end of the battle, there was no retreat.


    There is a competitive relationship between the Langya camp and the fierce tiger army. Ganning takes the soldiers of the Langya camp as an example to educate the soldiers of the fierce tiger army. For the soldiers of the fierce tiger army, it is not only a spur, but also arouses their competitive spirit.


    One by one, the fierce tiger soldiers were unwilling to lose to Langya camp.


    Li Fan leads the soldiers on the way, but his hand is always on the hilt, ready to move at any time.


    Li Fan moved quickly, and was closer to the ambush of Yuan Chou. When Li Fan arrived at Yuan Chou''s ambush area, Yuan Chou did not immediately order the attack, but waited again.


    Through the length of the fire, Yuan Chou judged that the soldiers under Li Fan''s command were about 4000. So yuan Chou didn''t attack the leader Li Fan, but when Li Fan''s army was about half gone, Yuan Chou suddenly ordered: "kill!"


    This is to cut off Li Fan.


    Attack from the middle to weaken Li Fan''s army to the greatest extent.


    "Kill


    In a flash, countless shouts came out.


    Under the leadership of Yuan Chou, one by one yuan''s soldiers came out of the Bush and cut into the official road.


    A moment later, he entered the battlefield.


    Yuan Chou''s all this into, just attack Li Fan team waist, will Li Fan''s army cut off.


    "My sons, it''s tonight to make contributions. Kill me!"


    Yuan Chou roared.


    The soldiers under his command began to attack quickly.


    The number of Yuan Chou''s troops was 6000. In the number of soldiers, far more than the number of soldiers under Li Fan. But Li Fan''s liehu soldiers, before they set out, had been informed that this trip might be attacked.


    Under this premise, they had psychological preparation. Even if they were attacked by Yuan Jun''s soldiers, they didn''t panic. They quickly organized the formation and resisted.


    "Fight back, fight back!"


    Li Fan pulled out his sword and didn''t go any further. He turned the direction, took the soldiers back, and went directly to kill yuan Jun in the middle.


    And so is the fierce tiger army at the back. One by one, the army tacitly began to encircle in the middle, intending to attack yuan Chou''s soldiers.


    Even so, the number of Yuan Jun was large.


    The fierce tiger army is not afraid.


    "Kill yuan Jun, kill him!"


    Li Fan shouts out loud, and the fierce tiger soldiers under his command scream one by one, fearing no death. Under such an offensive, even though yuan Chou had more troops than the liehu army, Yuan Jun, who was in the middle, did not have an advantage.


    Yuan''s intention to wipe out the tigers was to split the army into two groups.


    Both sides in the open area, constantly fighting.


    A torch, let it burn.


    Under the red fire, there was a scream. One by one, Yuan soldiers were killed. But at the same time, there are also a fierce tiger soldiers, died in the fall of Yuan Jun soldiers.


    The two sides fought hand to hand.


    This is a narrow meeting!


    Only the brave win!


    Only dare to fight, dare to kill, dare not to die, can we win the final victory.

 Chapter 515

    The battle between the two armies is ongoing. In a short period of time, there was no difference between the two sides.


    When Yuan Chou saw this, he was also impressed.


    He is worthy of being Zhang Xiu''s soldier.


    Yuan''s six thousand soldiers are really strong in fighting. Such an army is invincible. But Zhang Xiu had only four thousand people in front of him. He didn''t have an advantage, even a little weaker.


    If you don''t pay attention, you may be annihilated by the other side.


    Such a situation, so that Yuan Chou can not have the slightest carelessness, so cautious with the soldiers to attack.


    On the other hand, when Li Fan killed with his soldiers, the more he fought, the braver he was.


    Li Fan has no burden at all.


    Because Li Fan knew that after his fight, the army led by Gan Ning was rapidly closing in.


    Li Fan just needs to fight.


    A sword in his hand, constantly waving, blade by, block the invincible. Yuan Jun''s soldiers, unable to resist Li Fan''s attack, were killed one after another. When Li Fan killed quickly, he ran into yuan Chou.


    When Li Fan saw yuan Chou commanding the army, he rushed up.


    "Die


    Li Fan drinks low, the blade cuts down.


    "Self righteous!"


    When Yuan Chou raised his sword, he blocked it. Two swords collided. The impact of the blade and the blade, sparks splashed, and the impact of the two people, was actually a step back.


    For a time, it was half the weight, each did not have the upper hand.


    "Well done, a decent one at last."


    Li Fan grinned and rushed up again with his knife. His sword kept chopping, while yuan Chou kept resisting and fighting back.


    They have been fighting for more than 30 moves in the blink of an eye.


    Two people, fight a match.


    When Yuan Chou attacked, he roared: "Lao Tzu, Yuan Chou, don''t kill nobody. Boy, give me your name. "


    Li Fan said: "your grandfather Li Fan is also."


    Li Fan kept on attacking quickly and said: "Yuan Chou, you have a large number of people under your command, but your soldiers can''t carry it. Your troops are bound to be wiped out. "


    Yuan Chou said: "Li Fan, you are the one who wants to lose. Your people will not be able to survive. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Li Fan attacks, he laughs.


    Yuan Chou said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Li Fan replied: "what I laugh at is that you are so naive. Old dog yuan Chou, do you really think that this time I went to dangyin County, I just went to dangyin county? "


    When Yuan Chou resisted the attack, he didn''t answer: "kid, make a mystery!"


    Li Fan said: "there is no doubt that you will die."


    Yuan Chou said, "it''s not known who killed whom."


    Up to now, Yuan Chou has not lost the edge at all. He is full of war while speaking and attacking. When he was in the army, Yuan Chou seldom played so well, because he was weaker than him, so he couldn''t play hard. He is stronger than him, but considering that he is Yuan Shao''s brother of the same race, he will be merciful and not strong in fighting.


    It''s fun to fight with Li Fan!


    Li Fan said: "you look around. Now you are a turtle in a jar."


    When Yuan Chou resisted, he suddenly looked around. When he noticed his surroundings, his heart sank. In the distance around the battlefield, there was a dense fire.


    All the flames were burning, forming a big circle around the battlefield.


    Now, the circle is shrinking.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu''s army is coming again.


    It''s a trick!


    Yuan Chou''s heart suddenly became nervous. He didn''t expect that he had been ambushed, but now he was ambushed by Zhang Xiu''s men. Instead, he was in danger.


    Yuan Chou thought about the way to solve it quickly.


    This short distraction led him to make mistakes in resisting Li Fan''s attack. When Li Fan cut down, Yuan Chou couldn''t stop him. The blade fell and crossed yuan Chou''s shoulder.


    "Yes


    Although the falling blade has weakened a lot. But with this knife, the flesh and blood opened and a foot long wound was exposed. Red blood, from the wound constantly overflow out.


    Yuan Chou felt the pain on his shoulder, gritted his teeth and prepared to retreat.


    Li Fan did not intend to let yuan Chou go.


    When Yuan Chou was ready to leave, he stepped in front of Yuan Chou and swung his sword in his hand.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    Two weapons, constant impact.


    Yuan Chou kept waving his sword, but the expression on his face was constantly changing, which was hard to resist.


    After all, he had a shoulder injury.


    Forced transport, resulting in shoulder wounds, is completely cracked.For a moment, the wound was bleeding.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of the violent impact sounded again.


    Yuan Chou''s hand was too weak to hold the handle tightly, so that his sword was knocked out. At the moment when Li Fan''s blade fell, Yuan Chou put out his hand like lightning and caught a soldier to resist.


    "Yes


    Li Fan''s blade was cut from the soldier''s face.


    He killed yuan Jun''s soldiers with one knife.


    Yuan Chou took this opportunity to get rid of Li Fan quickly. Such action, even if Li Fan also Leng next. He never thought that he could have killed yuan Chou, but the other side would have brought soldiers on his back.


    When Yuan Chou led the soldiers to retreat, suddenly, the sound of horse''s hooves came from the front.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves became more and more urgent..


    In the twinkling of an eye, a war horse appeared in front of Yuan Chou.


    But Gan Ning led the troops.


    Previously, when Gan Ning approached, he had found Li Fan fighting with Yuan Chou. However, Gan Ning did not come forward with the surrounded soldiers and quickly killed the surrounded yuan soldiers.


    Seeing yuan Chou run away, Gan Ning swung a knife and killed him.


    Long knife in hand, swing it directly.


    The horse rushed to Yuan Chou''s body, and Gan Ning slashed it.


    "Whew!"


    The sharp blade fell down, cut through the air, hung with a sharp howling sound, and in a flash, it was cut on Yuan Chou''s neck. When the blade passed, the blood spattered like a spring.


    Yuan Chou Shuo''s big head, after drawing an arc in the air, fell to the ground.


    "Kill


    Ganning gave a loud order.


    At this moment, Gan Ning didn''t order to surrender.


    Tonight, destined to kill.


    In addition to Li Fan''s 4000 soldiers, in order to encircle and kill this group of Yuan soldiers, Gan Ning transferred all the fierce tiger troops, with a total of more than 20000 people encircling and killing 6000 yuan soldiers.


    It''s a total one-sided slaughter.


    Many yuan soldiers cried out to surrender, but Gan Ning did not surrender from the beginning to the end.


    He didn''t want to surrender.


    He wanted to use these soldiers to stimulate Yuan Shao, make Yuan Shao crazy, and even make Yuan Shao completely angry.


    The killing continued for about half an hour.


    By this time, it was already early in the morning.


    None of the 6000 yuan soldiers, including yuan Chou, escaped. Under the attack of the fierce tiger army, all of them were annihilated and killed. Ganning counted his own losses and 1500 people were killed.


    Most of the 1500 people died at the beginning when Li Fan led the army to fight with Yuan Chou.


    Gan Ning is not worried about being attacked, because outside Yuan Shao''s barracks, Chen Dao''s cavalry of Langya camp are watching, so he is not worried at all.


    Gan Ning didn''t withdraw immediately. He first arranged for his soldiers to deal with the soldiers who died in the war. Then Gan Ning asked people to play with all the yuan soldiers again before he took them away quickly.


    When Gan Ning retreated, he sent someone to inform the cavalry of Langya camp, which was lying in ambush outside Yuan Shao''s camp, to withdraw. In fact, because the location of the fighting was a little far away from Yuan Shao''s camp, even if there was fighting, Yuan Shao''s camp was not aware of it.


    From the beginning to the end, Yuan Shao did not send troops to rescue, and Yuan Shao did not know that Yuan Chou was surrounded. When Chen Dao got the news of Ganning and knew that Ganning was successful, he was sorry.


    It''s a pity that Yuan Shao didn''t send troops.


    If Yuan Shao arranges soldiers to help, his soldiers of Langya camp will be able to show their skills.


    Unfortunately, there is no chance.

 Chapter 516

    In Yuan''s camp, the Chinese army has a big account.


    After midnight, Yuan Shao did not wait for the news of Yuan Chou, but lay down to have a rest. After all, Yuan Chou, who led the troops to ambush Zhang Xiu''s army, acted in the evening. He may or may not wait for the soldiers sent by Zhang Xiu.


    If he meets Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, Yuan Shao is confident that Yuan Chou''s 6000 soldiers will win. After all, half way ambush, six thousand troops enough to win. If not, it''s just a night.


    The war at night was uncertain, so Yuan Shao went to bed early. But Yuan Shao is in his sleep, but his dream is changing from one dream to another. Finally, it turns into the most terrible scene.


    He was in a sea of corpses, with corpses and blood everywhere.


    Instead of losing blood for a long time, it condensed into a lake.


    The scene was appalling.


    There are all kinds of ways to die.


    The scene was a shock.


    In this dream, Yuan Shao was completely frightened and woke up with a scream. After Yuan Shao screamed out, the soldiers guarding for Yuan Shao rushed directly into the camp and said in a loud voice, "general, what happened?"


    "Well, I had a nightmare."


    Yuan Shao wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and waved his hand.


    The soldier turned to retreat, but Yuan Shao asked, "when is it?"


    The soldier replied, "three minutes in time!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao asked, "did yuan Chou ever come back?"


    Yin time three quarter, according to such a time, after a few hours, the day will soon be bright.


    The soldier said, "never come back!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao''s heart sank down, thinking of his previous dream, which made him even more nervous. With this in mind, he ordered the sentinel to go to the place where yuan Chou was lying in ambush to inquire about the news. Then he sat on the couch alone, a little uncertain.


    Yuan Shao''s heart is in a mess.


    In his mind, there was a bleeding scene, which he thought was an unknown call.


    Time goes by.


    As it approached, the sentry came back in a hurry.


    The sentry''s face was full of horror.


    When Yuan Shao saw the sentry''s embarrassed face, his heart sank and he asked, "what''s the matter?"


    "Dead, all dead!"


    The Sentinel''s face was full of fear and said, "all the soldiers led by general yuan Chou have been killed. All of them were placed on the ground in disorder, like some kind of figure. But it was dark and dark, so the villain came back immediately to report it. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    All dead!


    It''s all dead.


    It''s impossible.


    You know, this is six thousand elite soldiers.


    Yuan Chou was a strong general who was good at marching and fighting under his command. Moreover, Yuan Chou acted steadily, not impulsively.


    Yuan Shao asked, "when you went, didn''t you meet anyone?"


    "No!"


    The sentry shook his head and answered.


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again. From the bottom of his heart, he still hoped that there would be yuan soldiers who fled near the battlefield, so that he could understand the situation. Now it seems that there is no one who has escaped.


    I''ve been killed.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao thought of a scene in his dream, which was quite corresponding


    Yuan Shao said, "come and see me."


    "Here it is


    Yuan Shao waved his hand for the sentry to step down. Yuan Shao is waiting in the tent. Now, he can only wait until he is satisfied and then consider the situation.


    Not long after, Jushou came to Yuan Shaoyi with sleepy eyes and saluted him respectfully.


    Yuan Shao said quickly about the killing of the army led by Yuan Shao, and said in a deep voice: "the sentinel sent back the news that Yuan Chou''s 6000 elite soldiers. It should not be underestimated that all of them have been destroyed. Commander, you follow me to the battlefield. It''s daybreak now. Let''s go to the scene and have a look. "


    "Here it is


    I''ll do it right away.


    Wearing his coat and armor, Yuan Shao quickly went to the battlefield with his relatives and guards. When Yuan Shao and his party arrived at the battlefield, it was already bright.


    At this time, we can clearly see the situation on the battlefield.


    On the battlefield, there are rivers of blood.


    A corpse is lying on the ground, already cold, but this corpse is placed together.


    He stood in the middle and didn''t see it at first. However, when you exit a certain distance and look far ahead, you can see that a cheek becomes a little embarrassed.


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the intention of the soldiers'' corpses, military division


    He didn''t say it directly. He said with a straight face: "when you come to the humble position, you will know it at a glance."


    Yuan Shao retreated to Jushi and looked carefully.


    In a flash, Yuan Shao''s face became livid, and the dead soldiers'' bodies were put in four big characters."Yuan Shao will die!"


    The four characters are very big, and they are made of corpses.


    Such a corpse on the ground, for Yuan Shao, like a curse in general.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    "Damn Zhang Xiu!"


    "Zhang Xiuer, if I don''t kill you, Yuan Shao vows not to be a human being."


    Yuan Shao was angry and scolded.


    For Yuan Shao, he did not expect that his soldiers were killed and humiliated.


    I saw all this in my eyes and frowned. He carefully examined the situation at the scene, and finally came to Yuan Shao''s side and said, "Lord, because there are no surviving soldiers, we can only guess out of thin air."


    "What''s your guess?" Yuan said


    Ju Shu replied: "in terms of his humble position, it is very likely that Yuan Chou led an ambush and met Zhang Xiu''s army, and both sides fought and killed. However, Zhang Xiu''s army appeared, and the two armies encircled and annihilated yuan Chou, which led to the annihilation of Yuan Chou. "


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shao sighed.


    It''s really annoying.


    "Let''s go back to the camp first. We were going to gather all the troops to attack Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu, child, deceives people too much."


    At the moment, Yuan Shao was full of anger and was ready to attack immediately.


    Hearing Yuan Shao''s words, Ju Shu said: "my Lord, we must not change our plan because of the death of Yuan Chou and the thousands of soldiers. Why Zhang Xiu let people put out four words is to motivate the Lord and make him lose his mind. Once the Lord really goes to fight against Zhang Xiu, he is likely to be ambushed again. "


    Yuan Shao said: "military adviser, what do you say to do?"


    In his mind, he thought of Xu you''s words and Yuan Shao''s advice to withdraw from the army.


    At this moment, I don''t think it''s easy to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is too cunning.


    It''s just very clear that at this time, we can never retreat, we can only move on.


    After thinking for a while, he said, "my Lord, this is the end of the matter, and we have no way to change it. What we can do is to win dangyin county according to the original plan. When we win dangyin County, we''ll consider settling accounts with Zhang Xiu. "


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "but we were not reconciled. After an ambush, we lost more than 6000 soldiers. Including the soldiers who died in the war, 20000 people have been damaged. It''s a huge loss. "


    "It''s impossible," he said


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "let''s go back and discuss the issue of sending troops. This time, we have to send troops. If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, you will never stop! "


    Yuan Shao''s heart was full of anger.


    Especially looking at a corpse, the words placed across it were a provocation to Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao took Ju Shi back to the barracks. At this time, it was already bright. The army immediately sent soldiers to deal with the dead bodies in the wilderness. Yuan Shao sent people to call Xu you, Guo Tu, Shen Pei and other military generals to the barracks for discussion.

 Chapter 517

    Yuan Shao''s face was cold and stern.


    In front of the public, he quickly said that Yuan Chou had been killed, and that 6000 soldiers had been destroyed. Then he said again, "Zhang Xiu killed my soldiers, which humiliated me even more. If you don''t take revenge, you will swear not to be a man. I want to mobilize a large army to attack Zhangxiu camp instead of dangyin county. What do you think? "


    Yuan Shao was not reconciled even though he had been persuaded by Ju before.


    He still wants to fight.


    Kill Zhang Xiu, revenge.


    Ju''s face was as deep as water, and he advised again: "Lord, I don''t agree with sending troops. Perhaps at this time, Zhang Xiu has set up a trap, waiting for the Lord to attack. Why did Zhang Xiu use the corpses of our soldiers to lay out four big characters, just to irritate the Lord and make him lose his mind. The Lord led his troops to Zhang Xiu''s camp, but he was again in Zhang Xiu''s calculation. "


    Guo TU was embarrassed at the moment.


    He suggested that soldiers should be laid in ambush last night. But now, it''s a huge loss.


    Another six thousand soldiers were lost.


    Even Yuan Shao could not bear such a huge loss. Guo Tu''s original intention is to defeat Zhang Xiu. But now the result is to let Yuan Shao lose his troops again.


    Guo Tu opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.


    He didn''t want to say it.


    Yuan Shao looked at Fengji and said, "what do you think of Fengji?"


    Fengji replied, "I''ll report back to my Lord. My humble suggestion is to capture dangyin county first. Even if Zhang Xiu arranged for the troops to be stationed in dangyin County, the tiny troops he sent could not stop our army. "


    After a pause, Feng Ji said again: "in a word, attacking Zhang Xiu''s camp is the most uneconomic. The best plan is still to attack dangyin county. "


    The rest of the civil and military generals echoed.


    No one was on Yuan Shao''s side when everyone reached an agreement.


    After seeing this, Yuan Shao felt sorry.


    "Just, just!"


    Seeing this, Yuan Shao stopped insisting and ordered, "Gaolan!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Gao Lan got the order, stood up and saluted.


    Nowadays, under Yuan Shao''s command, Gao Lan is a famous general, and he is the most important general of Yuan Shao. After all, after Zhang''s surrender, Yan Liang and Wen Chou were killed. Gao Lan was the best person to lead the army.


    Yuan Shao said, "I will give you 50000 elite soldiers to attack dangyin county."


    "Here it is


    If you want to go to the top of the table, you should hold your fist.


    "All back!"


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and gave the order directly.


    No longer staying, they all got up and left, while Gao Lan went to mobilize the army.


    Gao Lan wanted to mobilize 50000 elite troops to fight this time. In terms of the allocation of troops, Yuan Shao mobilized so many troops to make it clear that he wanted to really conquer dangyin county.


    Otherwise, it is impossible to deploy so many troops.


    When Gao Lan mobilized his troops and left the camp for dangyin County, the news soon spread to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Zhang Xiu was an accident.


    Because Yuan Shao didn''t come to attack his camp. According to Zhang Xiu''s understanding of Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao is headstrong and can''t stand provocation. With Yuan Shao''s arrogance, he was provoked. In particular, Gan Ning took a corpse and put out four big words, which humiliated Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was likely to kill him.


    In the end, Yuan Shao never killed him.


    It''s amazing.


    Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and looked at Sima Yi, who was sitting opposite him and playing chess with him. She said with a smile, "Zhongda, Yuan Shao sent a large army to attack dangyin county. According to the news from the soldiers, there were nearly 50000 people. It''s not easy to mobilize troops like this! "


    Sima Yi twisted a white letter and hung it in his hand, but he was thinking.


    "Pa!"


    After Sima Yi was born, he said: "in fact, Yuan Shao is so desperate, obviously, in order to conquer dangyin county at one stroke. It was Yuan Shao that made his humble plan a success. Now, Huang Zhong''s Feixiong army can be mobilized to attack Yuan Shao''s camp and try to restrain Yuan Shao to relieve the pressure of dangyin county. "


    "So it should be!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed with a smile.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    After the soldiers entered, Zhang Xiu said, "go and invite Huang Zhong."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to inform me.


    After a short time, Huang Zhong came to the camp and said, "Lord, what can I do for you?"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "mobilize all the flying bear troops to go to Yuan Shao''s camp and pretend to attack. In addition, the soldiers of Langya camp, who were transferred to Chen, ambushed in the middle of dangyin county and Yuan Shao camp. Although Yuan Shao arranged for people to go to dangyin County, what if it was a shot in vain and the soldiers who went to dangyin county would come back again? "


    "I understand


    Huang Zhong answered with a fist.


    In Huang Zhong out of the camp, at the same time arrange people to inform Chen to action.The flying bear army and the wolf tooth camp are working together.


    After the two men sent out, they acted separately.


    The flying bear army led by Huang Zhong went straight to Yuan Shao''s camp. When the army arrived outside Yuan Shao''s camp, Huang Zhongxian mobilized 1000 soldiers and pretended to attack Yuan Shao''s camp.


    Such a feint will not succeed. After Huang Zhong''s attack, he withdrew the soldiers and put on a posture of encircling yuan''s camp. Then he let the soldiers shoot arrows and harass him constantly.


    In Yuan Jun''s camp.


    Seeing the scene of Huang Zhong''s attack, Yuan Shao looked at the Jushou beside him and asked, "what do you mean, Zhang Xiu''s army encircles but does not attack?"


    Ju Shi replied: "I believe that Zhang Xiu''s intention is the same as that of annihilating yuan Chou last night. On the one hand, he sent soldiers to attack and waited for Gao Lan to lead the soldiers back to rescue, so as to ambush Gao Lan halfway. "


    "I see!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao said, "in that case, I''ll give an order to Gao Lan. He just needs to attack the county with all his strength, regardless of the safety of the camp."


    "My Lord is wise!"


    He answered with an arched hand.


    Yuan Shao immediately called for the soldiers, arranged for them to leave the camp after they left, and sent an order to Gaolan to attack the county, regardless of the safety of the rear.


    Gao Lan got the news, but he was also worried about Yuan Shao''s safety.


    However, Gao Lan did not take charge of Yuan Shao.


    On the one hand, there are more than 30000 elite soldiers in Yuan Shao''s camp. Even if Yuan Shao is in danger, it is easy for him to escape. On the other hand, he had to attack dangyin county and could not retreat.


    Gaolan Chen Bing is outside the city of dangyin county. Looking at the towering city wall of dangyin County, he also sees the garrison troops on the upper floor of the city.


    In this battle, Gaolan must win dangyin county.


    Only by winning dangyin County, Yuan Shao could have a foothold in Hanoi county. At that time, Yuan Shao''s army could enter the county seat of dangyin county.


    Gao Lan didn''t go to fight. He didn''t have any unnecessary nonsense. He directly ordered the archers to shoot outside the city to suppress the power of the city. Then he arranged for the soldiers to rush to dangyin county.


    This attack is extremely fierce.


    Gaolan''s 50000 elite troops were stationed outside the city. In order to win the county, Gaolan first sent 10000 elite troops to attack. After attacking for a while, he found that dangyin county''s defensive strength was weak, and Gaolan directly put in another 20000 elite troops to attack.


    A full 30000 people attacked a county town, which was a disaster.


    The strength of dangyin county is very weak.


    Relying on the strength of dangyin County alone, dangyin County could not resist without Zhang Xiu''s help. Fortunately, before that, Zhang Xiu had told the magistrate of dangyin county that he would retreat if he could not stop him.


    Fighting less than a quarter of an hour, dangyin magistrate said: "withdraw, withdraw dangyin County!"


    The county magistrate retreated, and the soldiers stationed retreated like a tide.


    Everyone back into the city.


    Gaolan''s army occupied the tower and quickly opened the gate to welcome Gaolan''s army into the city.


    Gao Lan is very alert.


    After entering the city, he first took over the defense of the city tower, and then quickly took over the four square city tower to control the whole dangyin county. However, after Gaolan took over dangyin County, the county magistrate had already gone to the west gate on the other side to break through.


    After the magistrate left, he went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Gaolan sent people back to the camp to convey the news and told Yuan Shao about the capture of the county, so that Yuan Shao could make a decision.


    It''s too easy to capture the county.


    Even Gao Lan had many worries in his heart.

 Chapter 518

    Yuanzhongjun camp.


    Yuan Shao was worried about the war in dangyin county. He led his troops into Hanoi county and first sent Qu Yi as a pioneer, intending to attack Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    But he was killed in a flash.


    More than 10000 vanguard troops were destroyed.


    Later, he adopted Guo Tu''s suggestion and arranged yuan Chou to ambush Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Finally, Yuan Chou died again.


    Six thousand soldiers, all killed.


    Yuan Shao suffered Zhang Xiu''s loss and was uneasy about the war. So even if Gao Lan led 50000 elite soldiers to attack the county town of dangyin County, Yuan Shao was still extremely worried.


    At the gate of the camp, Huang Zhong''s troops are still harassing.


    Yuan Shao didn''t worry about the harassment.


    He has been waiting for the news of Gaolan.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of rapid footsteps came from outside. At the next moment, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and Ju Shou''s face was full of joy. He rushed into the barracks and reported: "my Lord, great joy, great joy


    Yuan shaomao stood up and said, "is it done?"


    He replied, "it''s done. It''s done. Gao Lan sent someone to send back the news, and he has taken control of the county seat of dangyin county. Now the whole city is under the control of Gaolan. "


    Yuan Shao clapped his hands on his thigh and praised: "good, good a high view."


    But Professor Ju frowned and said, "Gao Lan sent someone to send back the Jiebao. Besides, he also asked the Lord if he would move the camp to dangyin county and stay in the city?"


    "Go


    Yuan Shao was happy and said, "dangyin county has a city wall. The city is solid and conducive to defense. We must go there."


    Ju said, "my Lord, I am worried about my humble position."


    "What worries?" Yuan Shao said


    Jushi replied: "I''m afraid that Gao Lan''s capture of dangyin county is too smooth. Zhang Xiu, you have dealt with him. You are very cunning. Zhang Xiuming is in dangyin county. He is not far from the county. It should be impossible for us to seize dangyin county. If Zhang Xiu had a heart, he would arrange for the army to rush to dangyin County for help. Even if Gaolan attacked, he might not be able to capture dangyin county. "


    When Yuan Shao heard this, his heart sank.


    That''s right!


    Gaolan captured dangyin county. It went so well.


    The expression on Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again, and he said, "military adviser, do you mean there may be ambush in dangyin county?"


    Professor Ju shook his head and said, "I''m not sure about my humble position, but I suggest that I call Xu you, Guo Tu, Feng Ji and Shen Pei to discuss whether to move to the city. It''s a big deal. You have to think it over before you plan


    "That''s the truth!"


    Yuan Shao heard Ju''s words, quickly nodded, and immediately ordered the soldiers to call all the people to discuss the matter.


    Soon, Xu you, Shen Pei and others gathered.


    Yuan Shao directly talked about the situation of dangyin County, and finally said: "the military division thinks that it is too easy for Gao Lan to win dangyin county. There may be a conspiracy of Zhang Xiu. What do you think should be done? "


    Xu you thought about it and replied, "I agree with the analysis of the military strategist. Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning and may have a conspiracy. Every move of Zhang Xiu has deep meaning. He surrounded us but did not attack us, and connived at Gaolan''s capture of the county town. He deliberately let us go to the county town. "


    "Shut up


    When Yuan Shao heard Xu you''s words, he gave a big drink.


    Nowadays, Yuan Shao doesn''t like Xu you in any way. He even thinks Xu you is an eyesore.


    Xu you was scolded by Yuan Shao, and his face was dull.


    In the presence of Guo Tu, Shen Pei and others, he was directly denounced by Yuan Shao. There was no face left. Xu you is a person who doesn''t want to be angry, even if the person in front of him is Yuan Shao.


    Xu you stood up, arched his hand and said, "I feel unwell at my humble post. I will leave first."


    With that, he turned and left.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you''s back and hummed coldly, but he didn''t care about Xu you. He said again, "let''s talk about our own ideas, express our own opinions, and determine our next step."


    The judge said: "Lord, I think Zhang Xiu''s intention is to let us into the county. Then, we were trapped in dangyin county. After all, after we enter dangyin County, the follow-up grain supply is likely to be cut off by Zhang Xiu. "


    Feng Ji said: "there is another possibility, that is, Zhang Xiu is waiting for us to transfer the camp to the county. On the way, he may lay an ambush to attack our troops. "


    One by one, they keep talking.


    Everyone spoke separately and analyzed the possible situation.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao laughed and said, "if Zhang Xiu comes to attack, why are we afraid? It''s a war with Zhang Xiu. We wanted to attack Zhang Xiu before, but Zhang Xiu couldn''t come out. If Zhang Xiu is willing to fight, that''s good. As for grain and grass, we are not worried at all for the time being. "


    After a pause, Yuan Shao said, "I''ve decided to go to the county seat."


    When they heard the words, they did not persuade them.But he frowned. He always felt that things were not so simple. But for a while, I can''t figure out the reason, and I can''t figure out the place where Zhang Xiu might move.


    There''s too much time and place to go.


    In the end, he didn''t object, so Yuan Shao ordered him to mobilize the army to set out.


    When Yuan Shao mobilized his army and left the camp, he made a decision to attack Huang Zhong''s army outside the camp. He didn''t like fighting at all. He immediately withdrew with his soldiers and let Yuan Shao''s army go to dangyin county.


    It was a safe journey.


    Even Chen Dao, who was lying in ambush on the way, did not attack Yuan Shao.


    As a result, Yuan Shao arrived at the county easily.


    All Yuan Shao''s soldiers were transferred and stationed in the city. Yuan Shao also came to the city tower of dangyin County, overlooking the direction of Zhang Xiu camp.


    He would like to see what other means Zhang Xiu has.


    Yuan Shao clearly remembers that Xu you said that Zhang Xiu conquered huaixian county because there was a secret road connecting the city and the outside, which led Zhang Xiu to use the secret road to break the city.


    In order to prevent Zhang Xiu from digging a tunnel into the city, Yuan Shao had made preparations.


    He gave orders to keep quiet. The soldiers specially monitored the movement of the ground around the city wall to prevent the underground of the city wall from being hollowed out again.


    On the other side, Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi and others have led the troops back to the camp.


    Everyone came to Zhang Xiu''s side to report their work, and explained what they had seen and heard.


    After they finished, Huang Zhong said, "Lord, Yuan Shao''s army has entered the county seat of dangyin. Next, it''s time for us to attack. According to my humble prediction, if Zhongda''s plan is to take effect, it should be around the afternoon.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "it''s morning now. After Yuan Shao''s army entered the city, they would certainly use the water from the well to cook near the barracks. What''s more, there are royal guards watching in the city, and news will come back soon. At that time, I will know whether Yuan Shao''s army used the well water. Now, just wait for the news. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi and others spoke together.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s all go down and let the soldiers be ready."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    After everyone retreated, Zhang Xiu was still waiting quietly.


    Time goes by little. After noon, time goes into the afternoon. It''s almost Shenshi, and news comes from the royal guards. When Wang Yue got the news, he came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Lord, it''s done. According to the information inquired by the royal guards, Yuan Shao''s soldiers have already used the well water that we have drugged. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words in a row and ordered: "order Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao to lead the army to attack."


    "No!"


    Wang Yue was ordered to turn around and arrange.

 Chapter 519

    "Dong! Dong! "


    In the barracks, there was a battle drum.


    With the sound of the drum, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers quickly gathered from the barracks.


    Everyone, get together quickly.


    Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao gathered at the gate of the camp. Zhang haoying rushed to the county with the great army.


    It''s not far from the camp to dangyin county.


    A little more than a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Xiu''s army came to the northern city of dangyin county.


    Zhang Xiu rode up and said, "where is Yuan Shao?"


    Yuan Shao had to send a message back to the sentry. Zhang Xiu mobilized a large army to attack the county. Therefore, Yuan Shao came to the city tower early to wait. When he heard Zhang Xiu''s cry, Yuan Shaoli stood on the city tower and said, "Zhang Xiu, child, would have been here. When the general''s army attacked the county, you couldn''t get out. Now, I''m sticking my head out. "


    Zhang Xiu replied, "it seems that Yuan Shao has captured the county seat of dangyin county. He is very proud of himself. Don''t you wonder why I didn''t send troops, but let you capture dangyin county? "


    "Why?"


    Yuan Shao''s face, raised a look of doubt.


    Zhang Xiu said: "because you are stupid!"


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao looks angry. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu plays tricks on him again.


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and said coldly, "Zhang Xiu, my officer is on the tower. What can you do for me? If you have the ability, you can attack the city. I''ll wait for you here. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, come on!"


    Zhang xiuchao nodded to Huang Zhong, and Huang Zhong immediately ordered that the flag in the army should shake and give the order to attack.


    In this attack, the fierce tiger army dispatched 10000 elite soldiers, and the flying bear army also dispatched 10000 elite soldiers. Twenty thousand elite soldiers quickly came out and went straight to the county.


    When these soldiers were killed, the catapults and archers quickly took their positions and directly launched an attack. The dense bows and stones began to suppress yuan Jun''s soldiers on the city floor to buy time for the attacking soldiers.


    From outside the city to downstairs, it''s very easy to be attacked.


    Yuan''s soldiers on the head of the city must be suppressed before they can get close. In Rao''s case, some yuan soldiers on the tower shot bows and arrows to the outside of the city, and some soldiers began to prepare for the attack.


    After a short time, Zhang Xiu''s army approached and attacked the city on a large scale.


    "Kill


    The cry of death is constantly ringing.


    Dense soldiers, fast attack. A cloud ladder, set up on the tower, a soldier like an ape, quickly climb to the tower.


    The siege car kept hitting the gate.


    The attack of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers was extremely fierce. Even Yuan Shao''s soldiers struggled to resist, but it wasn''t long. Some of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers climbed up the city tower, intending to seize it.


    The two sides used the city as a stronghold to fight.


    Yuan Shao sat in the town and watched the fighting on the city floor. He didn''t have any worry on his face. Instead, he looked calm.


    All his troops are in the city.


    He can continue to send troops to garrison, even if the current group of soldiers can not stop, there are still more soldiers.


    This is Yuan Shao''s confidence.


    It is extremely easy for 80000 troops to be stationed in the county towns.


    On the tower, Yuan''s soldiers fought quickly. Just as the soldiers were fighting, suddenly, a sound came out one after another, and a stench spread from the city floor.


    A lot of soldiers can''t keep diarrhea.


    "My stomach hurts."


    "Get out of the way, I''m going down the castle."


    "I''m going to the cottage!"


    ¡­¡­


    This is true of many yuan soldiers.


    One by one, Yuan Shao''s soldiers were weak and panicked, but they could not resist. At the critical moment of life and death, all of a sudden, my stomach aches and I want to go to the thatched cottage. It''s really killing me.


    There are also many soldiers who are so unstable that they are directly pulled in the crotch.


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers are in a mess.


    This curtain fell in Yuan Shao''s eyes, he widened his eyes, a pair of incredible appearance.


    How is that possible?


    What''s going on!


    The soldiers in the army are very good. How can they suddenly have diarrhea on a large scale.


    Even Yuan Shao did not understand.


    Gao Lan, as a commanding general, saw this behind the scenes, and his face puffed. He never thought that the good World War I had suddenly become like this.


    In the process of soldiers fleeing, the resistance of the offensive decreased sharply, so that the soldiers under his command were killed and injured countless times.


    Many did not escape at all.


    Then, die by the knife!


    Gao Lan didn''t dare to delay. He immediately transferred 10000 soldiers from the city to join the defense of the city tower. Originally, the garrison building of Gaolan town had only 10000 soldiers.


    It is enough to arrange 10000 soldiers to guard a small county.


    Today, Gao Lan has to send more soldiers.When the defense on the upper floor of the city was in danger, the 10000 soldiers who were newly put into the battlefield played a role, quickly stabilized the situation, and began to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    But among the new soldiers, there are also many with diarrhea, so that they are not strong enough to resist.


    Yuan Shao looked at Gao Lan and asked aloud, "Gao Lan, what''s the matter? Why do the soldiers in the army have diarrhea one after another? "


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Standing by Yuan Shao''s side, Ju Shu suddenly answered loudly.


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the matter?"


    "There must be something wrong with the water, the water source near the barracks in the city." Ju Shi''s eyes were shining with a wise look and said: "Zhang Xiu asked us to seize the county town in order to use the water resources in the city to deal with us. Oh, I have a stomachache, too


    With that, he covered his stomach and left in a hurry.


    I didn''t feel much before. Can see a stomachache everywhere soldiers, he also can''t bear, quickly to busy cottage.


    Yuan Shao was nothing.


    When he saw these scenes, he seemed to feel a little pain in his stomach.


    It''s hard!


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "Gaolan, no matter what, you must keep it. The soldiers just have diarrhea. We''ll be fine after we get through it. "


    "Yes


    Gao Lan answered with a fist.


    He looked at Yuan Shao and Ju Shi, who left in a hurry, and felt his stomach, as if there might be a little pain. However, Gao Lan, as a garrison general, had no way to leave because the battlefield needed him.


    He can''t get away.


    Gao Lanyan looked at the ten thousand people who were sent up again. The attack was fierce from the beginning, and gradually withered. Even many soldiers left in a hurry. His face was very helpless.


    Alas!


    This is really!


    He was the first to encounter such a fight.


    Gao Lan could only order again to mobilize another 10000 troops. It''s a pity that this time we ordered to enlist 10000 soldiers, but there were only 6000 soldiers who came to the city.


    Many soldiers, pull belly.


    The whole barracks in the city are in a mess, which makes people extremely surprised.


    Gaolan mobilized 6000 soldiers to the battlefield. After they were put into the battlefield, it was still far from enough, because such strength alone could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army''s fierce attack.


    The battlefield was still fighting, and Yuan Shao''s soldiers suffered heavy losses.


    Gao Lan had no choice but to send more soldiers to defend the city. Because under the current situation, they can''t retreat at all. Under the current situation, once they lose the protection of the city, they will be covered and killed by Zhang Xiu.


    Fortunately, there are a large number of Yuan Jun soldiers in the city. Even if many soldiers have a bad stomach, there are still a large number of soldiers with good physique. If they don''t have a bad stomach, they can at least resist it.


    The battle began in the afternoon and lasted until evening.


    It''s getting dark.


    Yuan Shao''s soldiers on the tower were killed and wounded countless times. A corpse, blood has already soaked the floor of the tower, the dry blood, showing a dark red, the air is filled with the smell of blood.


    It''s just that there is a more indescribable stench in the taste.


    It''s disgusting.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of the Gong suddenly sounded outside the city.


    Zhang Xiu stopped attacking and gave the order to withdraw. With the order, Zhang Xiu''s army on the tower retreated like a tide. Gao Lan on the tower was relieved at last.


    Back!


    Zhang Xiu''s army finally retreated.

 Chapter 520

    Gao Lan looked at the scene on the upper floor of the city, looked at the dead bodies, and his face was dignified.


    Although the war is over.


    But the loss is huge.


    All of a sudden, Gao Lan''s nose moved and smelled an indescribable nausea. He turned his eyes and looked to the place where the taste came, but Yuan Shao came.


    Yuan Shao''s body is haunted by a strong odor, which is very uncomfortable.


    Gao Lan forbeared and replied: "Lord, Zhang Xiu has retreated with his troops. For the time being, we are safe. "


    "Damn Zhang Xiu!"


    Yuan shaoshen has no eyes.


    He ran six times this afternoon, not to mention his soldiers.


    There are too many soldiers in the army. Today, countless soldiers go to the thatched cottage, which leads to overcrowding.


    I''m coming with you.


    He has always been rich and handsome, but now he is wilting and weak.


    Yuan Shao reluctantly summoned up his spirits and ordered: "Gao Lan, count the losses and deal with the battlefield. Although the soldiers are suffering, there are still many soldiers in the army who can guard them. We''ll arrange doctors to give drugs to soldiers in the army. "


    "Here it is


    If you want to go to the top of the table, you should hold your fist.


    Yuan Shao and Ju Shou left in a hurry, and they had to wash up.


    It''s too bad.


    Dangyin County upstairs busy time, Zhang Xiu''s army back to the barracks.


    Zhang Xiu sits in the tent and laughs.


    Sima Yi sat down with a faint smile on her lips. He led the plan for the war. Originally, Sima Yi wanted to weaken the fighting capacity of Yuan Shao''s army, but this time today, it has had a great impact on Yuan Shao.


    It was a big win.


    But Sima Yi was also sorry and said, "my Lord, it''s a pity that Yuan Shao''s army is more than 80000. He has too many troops. Even if there are 50000 or 60000 people with diarrhea, and there are 12000 or 20000 soldiers, the strong soldiers can defend with the help of the city. If Yuan Shao''s troops were less, the laxative would be enough to destroy Yuan Shao''s troops this time. "


    "Enough!"


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "it''s quite good to have the present results. Today''s siege should be the most relaxed one I''ve been fighting for many years. Our soldiers have been killed thoroughly. "


    "That''s true!"


    Sima Yi nodded.


    Sima Yi also thinks that today''s result is good, and she is quite proud of it.


    Zhang Xiu and Sima Yi are chatting. Soon, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao enter.


    After the three men were seated, Huang Zhongchen reported: "Lord, in this battle, the flying bear army lost 2000 soldiers, and the fierce tiger army lost more than 2300 soldiers. But according to preliminary statistics, our results in this war will not be less than 20000. We are on the offensive side, and we have killed no less than 20000 enemies, and we have won a great victory. "


    Hiss!


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu took a breath.


    Beheaded 20000.


    It was a great victory.


    Even Zhang Xiu did not expect such a result. After all, a siege in the afternoon alone, under normal circumstances, it is quite good to kill 6000 or 7000 enemies.


    But they can behead more than 20000 people.


    With more than 4000 losses in exchange for more than 20000 losses, this war is a complete victory.


    Since then, Yuan Shao''s troops have been nearly destroyed by 40000, leaving only 50000 or 60000 people in the city of dangyin county.


    Yuan Shao''s strength was nearly half weakened.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s troops, from the beginning to the end, to the present damaged troops, did not even have 10000 people.


    At the beginning, Yuan Shao''s military strength was dominant, as many as 100000. But up to now, Zhang Xiu''s troops are still more than 70000, but Yuan Shao''s troops are less than 60000, and the gap between the two sides has widened.


    Of course, Yuan Shao''s remaining troops are stationed in dangyin County, which is not difficult to garrison. It is not easy to defeat Yuan Shao. Especially when Yuan Shao''s soldiers came over, it would be more difficult to defeat the troops stationed in dangyin county.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "those who should be rewarded and given a pension should be registered and should not be omitted."


    "I understand


    Huang Zhong nodded.


    After a pause, Huang Zhong said, "Lord, do we still want to attack dangyin county?"


    "No more fighting!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "continuous calculation weakens yuan Shaohou. Today''s Yuan Shao, will not shrink out. It will be very difficult to calculate him. Next, keep the status quo and wait for the rest of the news. Of course, we must pay attention to Yuan Shao''s grain way. If we can cut off Yuan Shao''s grain supply, it will be the best. "


    "I''ll pay attention!"


    Huang Zhong answered with his fists clasped. He had expectations for Yang Xiu, who went north, and Pang Tong, who went to Heishan.


    When Zhang Xiu held his ground temporarily, Yuan Shao''s military camp in dangyin County gradually disappeared. After taking the medicine, the soldiers stabilized their stomachs for the time being, not as unbearable as in the afternoon.The big account of the Chinese army.


    Yuan Shao washed, put on his clothes and regained his handsome appearance. But in his eyes, there is a strong fatigue, diarrhea in the afternoon, consumed too much spirit.


    At this time, Gao Lan, Ju Shi, Shen Pei, Xu you and others entered.


    Except Gao Lan, all the other counsellors looked powerless. Without exception, they all had diarrhea and were very sick.


    Gao Lan was in good health. He survived without any problems.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on Gao Lan and asked, "Gao Lan, what are the casualties of our army?"


    Gao Lan said: "in this battle, as many as 21328 soldiers died in our army. There are 3000 seriously injured soldiers, and countless lightly injured. In today''s war, our army has suffered great losses. My Lord, there are only more than 50000 in our army, less than 60000. "


    When people heard the words, they all took a cool breath.


    The expressions on each face were full of shock.


    One afternoon''s fighting cost more than 20000 people, which is too much.


    For Yuan Shao, it was like breaking his muscles and bones.


    Gudong!


    Yuan Shao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at Xu you and asked, "Ziyuan, what do you think of the next war?"


    Before that, he constantly scolded Xu you and even looked down upon him, which led him to leave. Now think about it carefully, Xu you''s words are not unreasonable.


    Xu you did not exaggerate the facts.


    Zhang Xiu is really good.


    You know, Yuan Shao and his army arrived in dangyin County, but in just two or three days, Yuan Shao''s 100000 elite troops were only left with more than 50000 people, which reduced nearly half of his troops.


    Who believes that?


    Even Yuan Shao felt that his heart was bleeding and his breathing was not smooth.


    Hearing Yuan Shao''s words, Xu you raised his head, raised his chin slightly, and looked around.


    At this moment, he had the strength.


    These people don''t believe him.


    At the end of the day, he suffered.


    You know, he was the one who suffered a great loss from Zhang Xiu.


    Xu you stood up and said slowly: "Lord, we have been beating around the bush with Zhang Xiu, but without exception, the initiative is controlled by Zhang Xiu."


    "On the one hand, we need to re open up water sources and get water from other places."


    "On the other hand, we should stay in dangyin county and wait for news from senior cadres. As long as senior cadres break through and enter Hedong, the security of Chang''an will be threatened. Then, we have a chance to beat Zhang Xiu. "


    Xu you talked about it.


    Yuan Shao said, "is that the only way?"


    Xu you replied: "it can only be like this. Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. He is much more powerful than Gongsun Zan. To deal with Zhang Xiu, we must be careful. "


    Guo Tu wanted to talk about counterattack, but when it comes to Zhang Xiu, he didn''t talk in the end.


    He was afraid of being beaten in the face.


    What if he comes up with a plan and is schemed by Zhang Xiu?


    The same is true of Jushi, Shenpei and others. They all agree with Xu you''s proposal.


    For the time being, it''s mainly defensive.

 Chapter 521

    The weather is still cold in Youzhou in March. Even if the spring breeze blows on the earth, green grassland has appeared in Youzhou, but the cold wind is still unbearable.


    When Yang Xiu was in Hanoi County, his clothes were not thick, but when he came to Youzhou, they were much thicker.


    He went north in a carriage.


    It is closer and closer to the Yi capital where Gongsun Zan was stationed.


    The so-called Yi Jing is Yi county.


    But after Gongsun Zan was defeated in Jizhou and Yuan Shao, he returned to Yi county and did not attack any more. Instead, he continued to build camps, dig trenches and so on, and then stationed there.


    Yang Xiu''s carriage stops at the gate of the camp. He stepped out of the carriage and came outside the barracks. He looked at the soldiers outside the barracks and reported: "please inform general Gongsun, Great Han Taiwei, Zhang Xiu, envoy Yang Xiu, to come here to see you."


    The soldiers in the garrison also know Zhang Xiu. When he heard this, he was shocked and said, "you are the man sent by Zhang Taiwei."


    Yang xiudao: "such as fake package change!"


    But the soldier sighed and said, "you ask to see the general, but you may not be able to see him."


    "Why?" Yang Xiu asked


    Yang Xiu knows something about Gongsun Zan. After all, along the way, there are royal guards delivering news. Yang Xiu knew that Gongsun Zan was hiding in the barracks, and he was very decadent.


    However, he is Zhang Xiu''s envoy.


    The soldier replied, "in the barracks, the general only sends messages to women. We don''t see the general. I can only give orders for you. Whether I see you or not depends on the general''s meaning. "


    Yang Xiu took out a bag of copper money from his sleeve, handed it to the soldier and said, "thank you for reminding me, but if you don''t see it, it depends on general Gongsun''s decision. Just let me know. I''ll wait here. "


    "Good!"


    The soldier had to order him to turn around and inform him.


    Yang Xiu is waiting outside the camp, quietly waiting for the news.


    And deep in the barracks, the Chinese army has a big account.


    The middle-aged man was tall and pale.


    This man is Gongsun Zan.


    He has a sharp eyebrow and a rough face, which gives people the feeling of vigorous and resolute. But now his eyes, but not a bit sharp look, but turbid, very decadent.


    This is Gongsun Zan.


    Gongsun Zan was the most powerful in Youzhou. Even when he was the strongest, he took Yan Gang as the herdsman in Jizhou, Tian Kai as the herdsman in Qingzhou, and Dan Jing as the herdsman in Yanzhou. His troops once occupied parts of Jizhou, Qingzhou, and Yanzhou, and his strength was extremely strong.


    It can be said that Gongsun Zan was powerful and had a chance to occupy the northern part of the country earlier.


    In the end, Gongsun Zan was defeated.


    Gongsun Zan''s troops were all slaughtered. Even Gongsun Zan himself was defeated by Yuan Shao, and the good situation was destroyed. Today, Gongsun Zan no longer wants to compete with Yuan Shao. He just wants to muddle along.


    At the moment, Gongsun Zan was drinking and having fun.


    In the tent, there are several beautiful purple, charming and graceful women who were born dancing.


    Every woman is beautiful.


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes were blurred and intoxicated.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, outside the tent, a woman''s report sounded.


    Then a woman of great build strode in. Now Gongsun Zan''s tent is surrounded by women, not a man. Even teenagers are not allowed to show up.


    This is Gongsun Zan in case of being assassinated.


    After entering, the woman came to Gongsun Zan and said, "general, there is a young man named Yang Xiu outside the camp. He claimed to be the envoy of Taiwei Zhang Xiu and came to see him


    Yang Xiu?


    Zhang Xiu?


    Gongsun Zan''s confused eyes flitted past and was surprised.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu sent Yang Xiu. However, today''s Gongsun Zan has no mind to deal with Yang Xiu or Zhang Xiu, and he doesn''t want to help Yuan Shao.


    Gongsun Zan brushed his sleeves and said, "tell him it''s gone!"


    "Here it is


    The woman was ordered to inform immediately.


    The woman''s way of notification was not to go to the outside camp, but to shout the news out near Gongsun Zan''s camp in the inner camp. Because in Gongsun Zan''s camp near, set up a fence archery, no one is allowed to close.


    In this way, no one should be near Gongsun Zan.


    The soldiers waiting for the news outside, when they heard the news, were dismayed.


    Zhang Xiu sent envoys.


    He must unite with Gongsun Zan to prepare to attack Yuan Shao.


    Everyone knows that Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu have a grudge, but now Gongsun Zan refuses to meet them. The soldiers had no choice but to return to the gate of the camp. He looked at Yang Xiu and sighed, "Mr. Yang, please forgive me. General, I''m not seeing you! "


    "Don''t you see me?"


    Yang Xiu''s eyebrows showed a touch of surprise. Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zan would refuse to meet him. In Yang Xiu''s opinion, although Gongsun Zan didn''t see outsiders, he must have known the outside news.Under such a premise, Gongsun Zan knew the battle between Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao, and was bound to meet him.


    It is not difficult to persuade Gongsun Zan.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the gate of the camp, he was slapped in the face and was mercilessly rejected by Gongsun Zan.


    However, Yang Xiu was not discouraged.


    Yang Xiu''s mind turns, wandering outside the camp, thinking about the solution. Just when Yang Xiu was wandering, a man and a rider came not far away.


    Wearing a white robe, a white horse in his crotch and a long gun in his hand, this man is dignified and majestic.


    The man had a handsome face and sharp eyes.


    What a tiger general!


    Yang Xiu''s heart, can not help but praise.


    He didn''t immediately come forward to chat up, because the visitors came straight to the gate of the camp. After a while, the visitor went to the gate of the camp, turned over and dismounted, and said, "please inform general Gongsun, Zhao Yun."


    It''s Zhao Yun.


    Zhao Yun used to be a valiant general under Gongsun Zan. Although he was young, he was in charge of Baima Yicong under Gongsun Zan.


    Later, Zhao Yun''s elder brother died of illness, and Zhao Yun went home to take care of his elder brother''s funeral.


    This is three years.


    For Zhao Yun, his elder brother brought him up when his parents died when he was young, and he was like a father. Even if Zhao Yun doesn''t need to be filial, he is still at home and has been filial for his elder brother for three years.


    When Zhao Yun returned, he asked to see Gongsun Zan.


    Because he is Gongsun Zan''s man.


    The soldier at the door sighed: "General Zhao, you are so loyal. When the general is in trouble, he is still willing to come back to work for him. But the general doesn''t want to see you. You know that. Up to now, this is the third time you have come to see me. The last time you left, the general ordered that you would never come again. He told you to go away. The general didn''t need you. "


    When Zhao Yun heard the speech, he sighed.


    At this moment, Zhao Yun was also confused.


    The earliest time for Huan to fight for sun was when he went to fight for sun. Today''s Gongsun Zan has lost his spirit and completely changed into a man.


    Zhao Yun looked at the solid barracks, folded his hands toward the direction of the camp, and bowed a long bow.


    Then, turn over and leave.


    Seeing this, Yang Xiu turned his mind and immediately went forward to ask the soldiers about Zhao Yun. Find out Zhao Yun''s situation, Yang Xiu quickly back to the carriage, let the coachman catch up.


    Although Yang Xiu is young and even younger than Zhao Yun, his eyes are also old and spicy, which shows Zhao Yun''s extraordinary. In particular, the soldiers at the gate of Gongsun Zan''s camp said that Zhao Yunji was good at horse fighting and had both civil and military skills.


    This is talent.


    It can''t be lost.


    Yang Xiu''s plan is to recruit Zhao Yun for Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 522

    Zhao Yun white horse, white robe, riding the horse in front of him. But his elegant and elegant appearance can hardly hide his loss. Gongsun Zan, to Zhao Yun, is not only a kind-hearted man, but also the first person to serve in his life.


    Gongsun Zan, who had no effect on Zhao Yun''s resignation, was full of spirit and swept the Hu people.


    Zhao Yun admired it very much.


    At that time, Zhao Yun''s elder brother died of illness. When he resigned, Gongsun Zan did not retain him. However, he told Zhao Yun that his door to Gongsun Zan was always open to Zhao Yun, expecting his return.


    Now Zhao Yun is back.


    However, Gongsun Zan is not the former Gongsun Zan.


    This is Zhao Yun''s biggest loss.


    Zhao Yun didn''t want to see Gongsun Zan decadent all the time, so he came to see him continuously. He was not only for his official career, but also for Gongsun Zan to cheer up and regain his former glory.


    But he failed.


    Zhao Yun''s heart, has a strong sense of loss.


    He was not very fast or slow. He was immersed in his own world and depressed. But all of a sudden, he found the carriage following him. From the time he left Gongsun Zan''s barracks in Yijing City, the other party had been following him.


    It''s been like this all the time.


    This situation made Zhao Yun a little surprised.


    Zhao Yun''s hand immediately grasped his long gun and stopped. Then he looked at the carriage behind him and said, "since I left the barracks, you have been following me. I don''t know. What are you doing with me? "


    The carriage stopped.


    Yang Xiu lifted his robe and came out.


    He got out of the carriage, folded his hands, arched his hands and said, "I''ve met General Zhao in Xiayang Xiu."


    Zhao Yun light way: "I don''t know you."


    Yang Xiu look indifferent, not anxious not impatient way: "in the next Yang Xiu, Han Taiwei Zhang Xiu family long history."


    Zhao Yun''s brows rose.


    It was Zhang Xiu who came.


    Zhao Yun was born in Changshan Zhending. During his filial piety for his brother, although he didn''t become an official or take part in the war, he also knew the news from the outside world. He knew that Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu, Li Xi and Guo Si, Yan Liang and Wen Chou.


    This is a very powerful person.


    Zhao Yun also admired Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu killed the Huns.


    Unexpectedly, he met Zhang Xiu''s long history in Yijing. Zhao Yun took a deep breath, calmed his heart and said, "Yang Changshi is following me. I don''t know what''s important?"


    With a smile on his face, Yang Xiu said: "meeting is predestination, and more importantly, friendship. Why don''t we find a place to have a drink, talk and drink? Although spring has begun in Youzhou, the weather is still cold. Drink some hot wine and warm up. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhao Yun did not refuse.


    After all, the other side is Zhang Xiu''s long history.


    When it comes to identity, Zhao Yun is just a white man. And the other side is Zhang Xiu''s long history and noble status. Compared with him, it is a gap between heaven and earth.


    On the contrary, his future is uncertain.


    "Please


    Yang Xiu waved his hand and went back to the carriage.


    They arrive at a nearby wine shop and find the shopkeeper to bring a pot of warm wine and a plate of mutton.


    With a faint smile on his face, Yang Xiu took up a glass of wine and said with a smile, "General Zhao, you and I are destined to meet. Here''s to you. "


    Zhao Yun picked up the wine bowl and replied, "I''m not a general. I''m just a man in white. In the next table, Zi long, Yang Changshi can call me the table


    "You''re welcome!"


    Yang Xiu waved his hand and said, "brother Zilong, please!"


    With that, Yang Xiu took the wine bowl and drank it. He knew what to say. Especially outside the barracks, I asked the soldiers about Zhao Yun and knew that Zhao Yun had just returned from filial piety.


    Now Zhao Yun said that he was a white man, and his heart was even more happy.


    Zhao Yun is white.


    Only in this way can Zhao Yun be recruited.


    Otherwise, it will not be easy to attract Zhao Yun. After a glass of wine, Yang Xiu picked up the wine bowl again, filled it with wine for Zhao Yun, and filled his own wine bowl with wine, saying: "listen to Gongsun Zan''s soldiers say that when brother Zilong followed Gongsun Zan, he was in charge of Baima Yicong, killed Wuhuan, chased Xiongnu, worshiped Xianbei, and made great contributions. It''s really exciting."


    "It''s not worth mentioning," Zhao said


    Yang Xiu continued: "if I can gallop outside the great wall and kill these alien people in my lifetime, I will live a good life. Come here, jingzilong''s galloping on the battlefield. "


    "Please


    Zhao Yun took up the wine bowl and drank it in one gulp.


    Yang Xiu said that when it comes to this, Zhao Yun is not good enough to refuse again, and he just drinks up.


    Yang Xiu drank the wine with a strong smile.


    Especially that pair of wise eyes, is shining.


    Zhao Yun said: "Yang Changshi praises Miao. He is ashamed. Generally speaking, although I once led the army to fight against luwuhuan, I was also general Gongsun. What''s more, Zhang Taiwei''s killing huchuquan, beheading Fuluo and exterminating Xiongnu is a real and admirable achievement. Isn''t it quick for Yang Changshi to follow Zhang Taiwei and kill XiongnuYang Xiu sighed and said, "it''s a pity that I didn''t follow my Lord at that time. I didn''t see it with my own eyes when the LORD put out huchuquan and cut off Fuluo. I only know that when the Lord killed huchuquan, he killed all the Huns in huchuquan with a big fire. Later, he met Yu Fuluo and destroyed his army. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Tai Wei Zhang is really powerful."


    For people like Zhao Yun, he used to deal with foreigners all the year round and gallop across the border. Under such circumstances, he knew the ferocity of the foreign people in the border area, and he wanted to kill all the foreign people outside the border area.


    Just like this, I admire Zhang Xiu incomparably.


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "after all, Xiongnu people are broken and settled down. Today, the strongest people are Wuhuan people who live outside the pass. It is not worth mentioning that the Lord killed the Xiongnu


    Zhao Yun said: "Yang Changshi is modest."


    As they talked, they drank wine. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, their relationship became warm.


    At this time, Yang Xiu called Zhao Yun brother Zilong, and Zhao Yun also called Yang Xiu brother dezu.


    Originally, Zhao Yun was in a low mood. When he was in a low mood, Yang Xiu took advantage of the opportunity to drink and talk with Zhao Yun, making them close to each other.


    Yang Xiu changed his words and said, "are you ready to work for Gongsun Zan when you come back from filial piety?"


    "Yes


    Zhao Yun nodded and answered.


    Yang Xiu continued: "unfortunately, Gongsun Zan doesn''t accept you. To be honest, Gongsun Zan, who was once a high spirited man, was a wise master. Gongsun Zan killed Wuhuan and defeated Xianbei, which was awed by foreign people. But today''s Gongsun Zan is disappointing. "


    "Yes, it''s disappointing."


    Zhao Yun clenched the wine bowl, a bowl of wine directly down, sighed: "general Gongsun is so worthy of the three thousand white horses in the past? Are you worthy of your dead brother Alas, how can a man be like this


    Yang said: "no wonder Gongsun Zan."


    Zhao Yun said, "why?"


    Yang Xiu explained: "a man like Gongsun Zan is suitable to be a strong general for opening up territory. Let him gallop the battlefield, let him chase the bandits, that''s no problem at all. But he can''t be a shepherd. To put it bluntly, one of the assistant officials under Taiwei''s command, or even the prefect of a county, is far more capable of governing than Gongsun Zan. "


    Zhao Yun said quietly: "what my brother said is true. General Gongsun''s ability to govern the local area is really insufficient. Well, it''s a pity, a pity. "


    Yang Xiu said: "in fact, there is no pity."


    Zhao Yun said, "what''s the meaning of this?"

 Chapter 523

    With a bright and soft smile on his face, Yang Xiu said: "looking at the world today, the strong are competing for the strong, the weak are competing for the strong, and the weak are eating the strong. It''s extremely cruel."


    "Under such a premise, even if Gongsun Zan temporarily grazed one side, he could not last long."


    "Gongsun Zan is not fit to be a master."


    "For my elder brother, if you stay under Gongsun Zan, you will be defeated sooner or later, and you will be a stranger. It''s more appropriate for you to leave Gongsun Zan earlier. "


    "Moreover, Gongsun Zan gave up his elder brother on his own initiative, not his elder brother''s betrayal of Gongsun Zan."


    "Brother Yu''s reputation has no influence."


    Yang Xiucheng said sincerely: "when you choose your ministers, they also choose you. A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses his master. It''s a pity that the elder brother''s martial arts are buried under Gongsun Zan''s command. "


    Zhao Yun laughed, but said nothing more.


    Yang Xiu continued: "now, brother, you can''t go back to Gongsun Zan. What''s your plan?"


    Zhao Yun said: "no idea for the moment."


    Liu Bei''s face suddenly appeared in his heart. But now, Zhao Yun doesn''t know where Liu Bei is. There is no news of Liu Bei. He wants to find Liu Bei.


    After all, when Zhao Yun was under Gongsun Zan''s command, Liu Bei also lived under Gongsun Zan''s command, and then courted Zhao Yun more. The relationship between the two sides was very good.


    Zhao Yun admired Liu Bei.


    Both Liu Bei''s character and his ability to deal with affairs convinced Zhao Yun.


    Therefore, Zhao Yun''s first thought was to find Liu Bei. But the crowd is vast, he has no news of Liu Bei, no chance to work, so Zhao Yun has no way.


    Just so, he said, there is no arrangement for the moment.


    Yang Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "brother, it''s a pity if you are buried in the countryside with your martial arts and ambition. My brother and I are old friends at first sight. Would you like to come under my command


    When Zhao Yun heard the speech, he had some ideas.


    His first thought in his mind was to find Liu Bei, because Zhao Yun had no followers and knew Liu Bei best, so he wanted to work for Liu Bei.


    But he didn''t hear from Liu Bei.


    Moreover, Zhao Yun and Liu Bei have no agreement, even if he is obedient to Zhang Xiu, it is normal.


    But Zhao Yun is worried.


    Zhao Yun said, "I don''t know Zhang Taiwei. What''s more, you think I''m outstanding in martial arts, but what if I don''t agree with Zhang Taiwei? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Xiu heard the speech, he began to laugh.


    Zhao Yun said: "brother, what are you laughing at?"


    Yang Xiu replied: "what I smile at is that my elder brother is really worried. The elder brother has never been in touch with the Lord, so he doesn''t know the nature of the Lord, let alone how he deals with people. "


    Zhao Yun said: "how to say?"


    Yang Xiu said: "it''s useless to say more, because no matter how much I say about the image of my Lord, I don''t have a general impression of him."


    "I can only say that the Lord has a separate army under his command, such as the flying bear army, the fierce tiger army, and the Langya camp. The generals of these armies are the generals under the Lord. "


    "If you are willing to serve for your Lord, I can decide on your behalf to let you lead an army alone, or even form a cavalry, just like a white horse."


    Yang xiudao: "brother, what do you think?"


    The pupil in Zhao Yun''s eyes shrank.


    There was a look of surprise in his eyes. How dare Yang Xiu say that.


    Zhao Yun rubbed the wine bowl in his hand and said, "you can''t talk nonsense, my dear brother."


    Yang Xiu said confidently: "brother, I''m the long history of Taiwei''s mansion. How can I be a liar. I solicit you for my Lord. If I come to my Lord''s command, I can''t achieve my goal. Finally, I will not only lose my Lord''s face, but also my face. If I can''t do such a thing, I won''t promise. So please believe me


    Zhao Yun frowned slightly, thinking in his heart.


    Yang Xiu''s words are the best.


    Especially if Zhao Yun can form Baima Yicong alone, it is the best.


    Yang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun and saw the worries and concerns on his face. His heart was like a mirror. He knew what Zhao Yun was worried about, but Yang Xiu once again said, "brother, the 3000 white horses in the past were invincible


    "When the white horse comes out, who will fight against it?"


    "Even if Yuan Shao is such a powerful prince, it is difficult to fight head-on in front of Baima Yicong."


    "But now?"


    "Where is the white horse from now on?"


    Yang Xiu''s tone was sharp, and he said: "how many people still remember the white horse in the past. Innumerable white horse righteousness from, leave of leave, die of die. Even Gongsun Zan gave up Baima Yicong, which made the former Baima Yicong lose its former edge. "


    For Baima Yicong, Yang Xiu inquired very clearly.Yang Xiu went to Yijing from Hanoi county. He was very clear about the news of Gongsun Zan. Whether it was the people around Gongsun Zan or the army under Gongsun Zan''s command, it was clear.


    This is the strength of the royal guards.


    With the information of the royal guards, Yang Xiu was much easier to deal with things.


    When Zhao Yun heard Yang Xiu''s words, he was silent in his heart, and his face was very solemn.


    Baima Yicong is the place where Zhao Yun first worked.


    This is what he is most concerned about.


    He was concerned about his old brother.


    He is concerned about everything that Baima Yicong has done.


    But now Baima Yicong has become the past. Who can remember the glory of Baima Yicong in the past?


    Yang Xiu struck while the iron was hot and said, "brother, under Gongsun Zan''s command, it''s impossible for you to form Baima Yicong and restore its glory. But you can be under the Lord''s command. I can make decisions for my Lord. As long as you submit to my Lord, you can form a white horse righteous subordinate


    At this time, he promised again.


    In order to attract Zhao Yun, Yang Xiu is also open-minded, he is confident to return to Zhang Xiu, is able to persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhao Yun is a talented person.


    Zhao Yun said: "under the command of Zhang Taiwei, are there so many war horses?"


    Yang Xiu replied, "brother, you look down on your master. There is no shortage of horses under the Lord. Elder brother is in the North all the year round. Do you know Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping? "


    Zhao Yun nodded and said, "these two are big merchants selling war horses. In the north, they are very famous. "


    Not only has Mr. Yang and Mr. Su brought up two people in the District, but they have already brought them up. Thanks to the efforts of Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, Shanglinyuan has begun to raise war horses on a large scale, and energy sources are constantly providing war horses. "


    In Zhao Yun''s eyes, there was a flash of light.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu set up a racecourse in Chang''an. It''s really amazing.


    Zhao Yun once again said: "brother, are you sure you can really make the decision for Zhang Taiwei?"


    Yang Xiu''s face was solemn, and he said: "I go to Youzhou in the north, and I have the full power to act for my Lord. Brother, if you don''t trust me, why don''t you take an oath to heaven? "


    "No need!"


    But Zhao Yun shook his head and said.


    He believed in Yang Xiu.


    More believe in his own vision, he believes that people will not be wrong.


    Yang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun with a look of expectation in his eyes. Having said so much, it''s time for Zhao Yun to make a decision.


    Zhao Yun took a deep breath, with a solemn look on his face, and said, "OK, I''m willing to submit to Zhang Taiwei."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Yang Xiu said three good words on his face and said with a smile: "my Lord, if you are thirsty for talent, you will be very happy to learn that my brother is obedient. Under the Lord''s command, there is a lack of such talents as elder brother. "


    Zhao Yun said modestly, "my younger brother is praising me."


    Yang xiudao: "brother, since you want to set up a white horse Yicong, you can find some veterans who left the camp but are still white horse Yicong, and let them go south with us."


    "Yes!"


    Zhao Yun nodded and answered.


    He is willing to do such a thing.


    After a pause, Zhao Yun said again, "what''s the matter with you when you go to Yijing this time?"

 Chapter 524

    Yang Xiu said, "I went to Yijing to persuade Gongsun Zan to send troops to attack Yuan Shao''s rear."


    Zhao Yun said, "what''s the matter?"


    Because the war between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu happened recently, the news didn''t spread to Youzhou.


    So Zhao Yun is not sure.


    Yang Xiu replied: "Yuan Shao raised 100000 troops and sent troops to attack Hanoi county. My Lord raised 80000 troops to meet in Hanoi county. The two sides are in Hanoi county and are about to fight. "


    Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Yuan Shao is very powerful. I''m afraid Taiwei can''t resist it."


    Today, Zhao Yun is called Taiwei.


    He didn''t call the Lord because although Zhao Yun promised Yang Xiu that he would submit to Zhang Xiu, he didn''t see Zhang Xiu and didn''t know what kind of person Zhang Xiu was.


    Yang Xiu said with a light smile: "brother, this is a bad word. This time, Yuan Shao can''t resist it."


    "Why?" Zhao yunxun asked.


    Although Zhao Yun did not take part in the war for several years, he was quite clear about Yuan Shao''s strength. You know, Yuan Shao has been in Jizhou for many years, and his strength is stable. Zhang Xiu, on the other hand, is a new comer with insufficient strength.


    Even though Zhang Xiu has 80000 excellent soldiers, Zhao Yun thinks that Yuan Shao has more advantages in front of him.


    Without waiting for Yang Xiu to answer, Zhao Yun said again, "is it difficult? Zhang Taiwei places his hope on general Gongsun, hoping that general Gongsun will send troops."


    Yang Xiu said: "even if there is no general Gongsun, the Lord will win this battle. General Gongsun''s sending troops is just icing on the cake. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Zhang Taiwei, is there any other Assassin''s mace?"


    At this moment, Zhao Yun asked again.


    He was curious.


    In terms of military strength, Zhang Xiu''s strength is not equal to Yuan Shao''s, and her inside information is also insufficient.


    You can''t just say it.


    Yang Xiu light way: "elder brother, know Zhang Yan?"


    "I know!"


    Zhao Yun nodded and replied: "the relationship between general Gongsun and Zhang Yan is pretty good. As far as I know, Zhang Yan helped general Gongsun several times and joined hands with general Gongsun to deal with Yuan Shao. "


    Yang said: "now, Zhang Yan has been subordinated to the Lord. Although the black mountain army is still in black mountain, it''s a special force against Yuan Shao, but the Lord didn''t publicize it to the outside world. "


    "Hiss!"


    Zhao Yun took a cool breath.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Yan turns out to be Zhang Xiu''s person, and has already been subordinated to Zhang Yan.


    When Zhao Yun left Gongsun Zan''s army three years ago, he knew Zhang Yan at that time. As the leader of the black mountain army, Zhang Yan is a powerful force with hundreds of thousands of people.


    However, Zhang Yan turned to Zhang Xiu.


    What a surprise.


    Zhao Yun once again said: "brother, is this really true?"


    Yang Xiu said: "brother, do you think I would lie about such things? In fact, even without Zhang Yan''s main force, it is not difficult for him to defeat Yuan Shao''s 100000 troops from my understanding of him. "


    "When the Lord''s strength is a little weak, what he is best at is to defeat the strong with the weak. The Lord once defeated the 40000 elite soldiers sent by Yuan Shao to Hanoi with 10000 or 20000 troops. He killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou. He first took in Zhang Yan, the general who was demoted to Yuan Shao, and then recruited Tian Feng, the counselor who was demoted to Yuan Shao. "


    "Now the Lord has raised 80000 troops and fought at home. He has the advantages of geographical advantage and human harmony, plus the Lord''s plan. It is not difficult to defeat Yuan Shao. "


    Yang Xiu''s face is full of confidence.


    The more he came into contact with Zhang Xiu, the more confident Yang Xiu was.


    Especially when Yang Xiu learned what Zhang Xiu had done in Xu Du and that Zhang Xiu had defeated Xu Chu and Dian Wei in front of Cao Jun''s soldiers, Yang Xiu''s blood was boiling when he thought about these situations.


    He hated that he had not been able to go to Xudu and had not been able to witness the scene of Zhang Xiu subduing Cao Jun.


    Zhao Yun thought about it and said, "in this way, it''s easy for Taiwei to win."


    "That''s what it is


    Yang Xiu looked confident and calm.


    For him, it is easy for Zhang Xiu to win.


    With a smile in his mouth, Yang Xiu said, "brother, I have a way to persuade Gongsun Zan. Previously, I went to see Gongsun Zan, but Gongsun Zan refused. Now I have a way. "


    Zhao Yun asks: "what method?"


    Yang Xiu said calmly: "since Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan have a good relationship, I will go on behalf of Zhang Yan. With the relationship between Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan, we can succeed. "


    Zhao Yun said, "what my brother said is true."


    Yang Xiu said, "brother, would you like to see Gongsun Zan with me again?"


    "No!"


    Zhao Yun shook his head.


    He was quite disappointed with Gongsun Zan, and really didn''t want to see him again. When he decided not to work for Gongsun Zan any more and to submit to Zhang Xiu, he cut off all ties with Gongsun Zan.


    Yang Xiu didn''t ask for it either. He said, "in that case, my elder brother will try his best to find Baima Yicong in Yijing. With Baima Yicong, when we go south and return, my elder brother can form Baima Yicong as soon as possible.""No problem!"


    Zhao Yun answered directly.


    Two people push the cup to hand over the cup, after finishing all the things, they find an inn nearby to stay.


    Zhao Yun is busy with his business.


    Yang Xiu left the Inn and went to Gongsun Zan''s barracks again.


    When Yang Xiu came to Gongsun Zan''s camp, the soldiers standing guard at the gate sighed: "Yang Changshi, don''t bother. It''s impossible to change what general Gongsun decided. You want to see the general. It''s impossible. Nowadays, few people can see the general. Not to mention you, even the closest counselor of the general can''t see him. "


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s OK, I don''t mind. But please let me know again. "


    "Wait!"


    The soldier had received Yang Xiu''s benefit before, but he didn''t delay. He turned around and wanted to go inside.


    Yang xiudao: "wait a minute!"


    The soldier said, "what''s the matter?"


    Yang Xiu replied: "this time, I will no longer ask to see you as the head of Taiwei''s mansion. Please inform general Gongsun, envoy Yang Xiu of Zhang Yan of Heishan army, that he has come here specially to see you. "


    Black Mountain army?


    The soldier looked surprised.


    Soldiers in the army, who also know Zhang Yan of Heishan, did not expect Yang Xiu to come in such an identity.


    Yang Xiu didn''t explain much. He said, "just go and inform me."


    The soldier did not go into the cause and turned to the barracks. When the soldiers came to the periphery of the Chinese Army''s tent, they told the women guarding the camp the news and waited for the news quietly.


    Gongsun Zan is still drinking.


    He was drunk and dazed, and there was a little blush on his face. He was drunk by three points.


    This is the daily portrayal of Gongsun Zan.


    When the strong woman came to Gongsun Zan and told him about Yang Xiu''s visit, Gongsun Zan''s eyes widened and his eyes showed a look of surprise. But he also thought of the previous, Yang Xiu as the head of Taiwei mansion.


    What is Yang Xiu''s identity?


    Gongsun Zan thought that Yang Xiu had deliberately deceived him.


    But Gongsun Zan can''t ignore Zhang Yan, because Gongsun Zan and Zhang Yan are very close, and he even wants to send someone to Zhang Yan for help.


    Gongsun Zan thought about it and said, "bring people in!"


    "Here it is


    The woman was ordered to inform immediately.


    Yang Xiu, who was at the gate, got the order, and with a smile on his face, arched his hand to thank the soldiers and entered the camp. After entering the barracks, he walked past the front camp and came to the rear camp near the army tent.


    He sneered at the barracks of the rear camp and the ditches and turrets.


    Gongsun Zan is a fool!


    He even set up a camp in the camp to completely isolate himself from the soldiers in the army.


    But how about Gongsun Zan? Yang Xiu doesn''t go to talk about it. This time he came to Yijing, not to rescue Gongsun Zan, just to persuade Gongsun Zan to send troops.


    This is his purpose.

 Chapter 525

    Yang Xiu shook his sleeve robe and strode to the camp. But just as he entered the area where the arrow tower was located, he was stopped by a middle-aged woman with a body of at least 130 Jin.


    The middle-aged woman, with an angry look, tugs at Yang Xiu. After searching her body, she lets Yang Xiu in.


    Being treated like this, Yang Xiu was disgusted. Gongsun Zan was a famous vassal in the world. He crossed Youzhou, which made Wuhuan outside Youzhou scared.


    Today, however, Gongsun Zan relies on women to protect himself.


    It''s ironic.


    Yang Xiu didn''t understand what Gongsun Zan had gone through. He didn''t believe his soldiers. Instead, he found a group of women to protect himself.


    But Yang Xiu didn''t think about it. He strode forward and soon entered the Chinese army.


    For the first time, Yang Xiu met Gongsun Zan. In front of him, Gongsun Zan''s temples were already in the color of wind and frost, his beard was in a mess, and his eyes were covered with blood, which gave people the feeling of vicissitudes.


    Incomparable decadence!


    Is this Gongsun Zan famous all over the world?


    Yang Xiu shook his head in his heart and looked down upon Gongsun Zan even more. But on his handsome face, he didn''t show any thoughts. He said with a straight face: "Shi Yangxiu, the head of Taiwei''s mansion, meet general Gongsun."


    Gongsun Zan frowned and said coldly, "you just said that you are Zhang Yan''s envoy."


    Yang xiudao: "I''m the long history of Taiwei mansion, and I''m also Zhang Yan''s envoy."


    Gongsun Zan was short of breath, especially he drank a lot, which led to his disordered breathing. He leaned forward, his eyes fixed on Yang Xiu, his hand pressed on the desk, and said in a deep voice: "you are Zhang Xiu''s person and Zhang Yan''s person. Can''t it be that Zhang Yan and Zhang Xiu are the same person. You can''t tell me how ugly Yin Mao is. Don''t blame Gongsun Zan for killing people. "


    In the words, it is cold and sharp.


    He had already killed Yang Xiu and thought that he had cheated him.


    Yang Xiu saw Gongsun Zan''s ugly behavior in his eyes, but he didn''t pay attention to it. He didn''t have any fear and fear. In his eyes, Gongsun Zan is a paper tiger without any deterrent power.


    Yang Xiu light way: "in fact, the reason is very simple."


    Gongsun Zan said, "what''s the reason?"


    Yang Xiu replied: "Zhang Yan of Heishan has been subordinated to our Lord and become a general under our Lord. General Gongsun, do you think I can represent Zhang Yan under such circumstances? "


    Brush!


    Gongsun Zan''s face looked surprised.


    Zhang Yan surrendered to Zhang Xiu.


    How is that possible?


    In particular, Zhang Xiu only controls Guanzhong. Even if Zhang Xiu is a Taiwei, her strength is not too strong. Compared with Yuan Shao, Zhang Xiu is still very weak. On the contrary, it was Zhang Yan, who was entrenched in the black mountain, with hundreds of thousands of people and tens of thousands of troops, who could not easily submit to Zhang Xiu.


    Under this premise, Gongsun Zan did not believe Yang Xiu''s words.


    "Somebody


    Gongsun Zan gave an order.


    As the voice fell, two strong women entered and saluted Gongsun Zan with their fists clasped.


    Gongsun Zan''s face was cold and fierce. He said directly, "drag this man out for me and kill him immediately."


    Yang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    He didn''t understand the reason why Gongsun Zan suddenly turned over. Just now, he just explained Zhang Yan''s surrender. However, Gongsun Zan wanted to kill him without saying a word, which was beyond his expectation.


    All of a sudden, a flash of light flashed through Yang Xiu''s mind.


    He figured it out.


    Gongsun Zan did this on purpose to give him a bad impression and specially called two women to scare her.


    Yang Xiu waved his hand and said, "wait a minute!"


    Gongsun Zan raised a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, waved his hand and said, "what do you have to say?"


    Yang Xiu replied, "before I came here, I was ready to be killed. Since I want to die, there''s nothing to say. But how can I be humiliated by a woman. I''ll go by myself


    With that, Yang Xiu walked out with his big sleeve. Even Gongsun Zan was shocked. He was going to frighten Yang Xiu and give him a threat to avoid lying.


    Unexpectedly, Yang Xiu went out directly.


    The play is wrong.


    Gongsun Zan watched Yang Xiu go out. Seeing that Yang Xiu kept moving, his shock and awe had no effect. He ordered: "Yang Changshi, wait a minute, you all step back!"


    The two women stepped down.


    Yang Xiu turned around and faced Gongsun Zan again. He said calmly, "what does general Gongsun mean by leaving me?"


    Gongsun Zan said, "Zhang Yan has surrendered to Zhang Xiu. Is this really true?"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Xiu heard the speech, he burst out laughing.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Yang Xiushi looked down upon Gongsun Zan. He stamped his feet on Gongsun Zan in Youzhou. The foreigners in the north were scared to death. But now, it is so not confident, let people down.It''s unbearable!


    You are the master of Youzhou!


    Gongsun Zan frowned and said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Yang Xiuse said: "I laugh because of general Gongsun''s inquiry. In front of general Gongsun, what do I cheat you to do? In other words, if I cheat general Gongsun, what good can I get? "


    "The story of Zhang Yan''s surrender has not been spread for the time being. But as long as the Lord and Yuan Shao fight on a large scale, the news will spread and general Gongsun will naturally know. "


    "This news can''t be falsified."


    Yang Xiu tossed the ground and said, "what''s more, if you cheat now, who will believe my Lord in the future?"


    "That''s true!"


    Gongsun Zan stroked the stubble under his jaw with a look of approval on his face.


    He thinks Yang Xiu''s statement is reasonable.


    Yang Xiu continued: "general Gongsun, you don''t need to worry about me cheating you. Even, you can arrange a sentry to go to Heishan and ask Zhang Yan. After all, there is a connection between general Gongsun and Zhang Yan, right? "


    "Yes, yes, yes!"


    Gongsun Zan nodded one after another, and his heart was completely stable. But he was very sorry that Zhang Yan, as a great hero in the world, had turned over to Zhang Xiu, which was beyond his expectation.


    Gongsun Zan changed his words and said, "Yang Xiu, what''s the matter with you coming to see me?"


    Yang Xiu said: "now, Yuan Shao sent 100000 soldiers to Hanoi county to fight with his Lord. My Lord has 80000 troops stationed in dangyin County, Hanoi, and is about to fight Yuan Shao. "


    "In addition, there are tens of thousands of Zhang Yan''s troops ambushing in Heishan."


    "On this premise, the Lord arranged for me to come to Youzhou, and asked general Gongsun to send troops to defeat Yuan Shao''s army in Youzhou, and the three armies joined forces to attack Jizhou."


    Yang Xiu asked.


    Gongsun Zan frowned.


    He didn''t want to go to war, lost to Yuan Shao and lost his confidence.


    Yang Xiu noticed Gongsun Zan''s appearance and looked down upon him in his heart, but he continued: "general Gongsun, Yuan Shao sent 100000 troops to the south. In today''s situation, even though there are still troops on the border between Jizhou and Youzhou, in fact, there are not many. "


    "Now, it''s your only chance."


    "If you don''t do it now, you can only be trapped in Yijing and lose to Yuan Shao."


    "If you don''t fight now, if you don''t fight for Jizhou, if you don''t fight for Yuan Shao, at least you can break the current situation. Because of Yuan Shao, there are no more troops to attack you. "


    Yang Xiu said: "the LORD sent me here not to make an alliance with general Gongsun. Neither side has any promises to fulfill. They are all for their own interests. General Yuan Shao''s attack on you has not weakened in recent days? "


    "That''s true!"


    Gongsun Zan narrowed his eyes and thought about it carefully.


    In the first half of last year, Yuan Shao attacked like a tide. Even in the second half of last year, Yuan Shao was extremely fierce at the same time, intending to completely defeat him. But this year, Yuan Shao''s offensive is less.


    This is an opportunity!


    Gongsun Zan''s heart, also raised the idea.


    He had been trapped in Yijing before, not because he didn''t want to fight Yuan Shao, but because Gongsun Zan didn''t have any advantage over Yuan Shao. He couldn''t match Yuan Shao in terms of the number of soldiers or their fighting capacity.


    Therefore, Gongsun Zan was trapped in Yijing.


    The intention is to guard with the help of Yi Jing.


    But now, Yuan Shao is fettered by Zhang Xiu, and he has the opportunity to send troops. Moreover, Yang Xiu also said that it is not an alliance, but for their own interests. Where he fights, he can withdraw at any time.


    Yang Xiu said again: "general Gongsun, whether to send troops or not is in your mind. Whether you want to change the present situation is also in your mind


    "But it''s time not to come again. Once you miss the opportunity now, it''s impossible for you to look for the opportunity to break the ice next time. "


    "My Lord''s strength, in fact, is enough to defeat Yuan Shao. In order to defeat Yuan Shao more easily and achieve greater results, I was arranged to go north. "


    When Yang Xiu saw Gongsun Zan''s intention, he began to retreat and said that even without Gongsun Zan, it didn''t matter.


    "Well, Ben will send troops."


    Gongsun Zan was bewitched and wanted to send troops in his heart. A bite of teeth, then agreed to come down.


    He decided to fight the first World War.


    If we don''t fight any more, we will have to sit in Yijing and wait for death.


    Yang Xiu arched his hand and said, "general Gongsun is a man of understanding. In that case, I will not delay. Next, I''m going to go south and return to Hanoi to tell my lord the news. "


    "Yes!"


    Gongsun Zan nodded and answered.


    Yang Xiu leaves, while Gong sun Zan gets up, brushes his sleeves, removes the women from the barracks, and orders the civil servants and military generals under his command to gather and prepare to send troops.

 Chapter 526

    When Yang Xiu returned to the inn, he took a rest in it. He had to wait for Zhao Yun. Only after Zhao Yun had summoned Baima Yicong could he leave.


    Two days, fleeting.


    These two days, Yang Xiu arranged the royal guards to constantly inquire about the news of Youzhou.


    It''s rare to enter Youzhou. Yang Xiu tries his best to find out the situation of Youzhou.


    This is to lay a foundation for the future.


    Today''s Yang Xiu, constantly deal with things, constantly independent, mind more meticulous. With the growth of experience, Yang Xiu considered many things and became more mature.


    On this day, in the morning.


    When Yang Xiu was reading in his room, Zhao Yun strode in.


    Zhao Yun had a sad look on his face.


    These two days, through some of his own relations, he found many Baima Yi veterans from the past. When he saw the situation of the old brothers, he felt very sad.


    Baima Yicong made great contributions to Gongsun Zan. It can be said that without Gongsun Zan, there would be no white horse. Similarly, without Baima Yicong, there would be no Gongsun Zan today.


    But Baima Yicong''s situation is too miserable.


    Countless veterans who left the barracks had a miserable life.


    Many people are even hungry.


    After seeing Yang Xiu, Zhao Yun said in a low voice, "how much money have you brought to the north, my dear brother?"


    "It''s not much money, but if I need it, I can transfer it right away," Yang said. Brother, what happened to you? " Seeing Zhao Yun''s dignified and Chen''s heavy look, Yang xiudao said, "even if something happens, you don''t have to worry. First of all, let''s discuss and think about the countermeasures. We are too eager to solve the problem. "


    Zhao Yun sighed: "here''s the thing. Some of the well-being Baima Yi veterans are willing to go south with me. It''s just that there are some physically injured people who can''t go to war again. These people, I want to give them some money. Once upon a time, I was the general of Baima Yicong. I couldn''t bear to see him


    Yang Xiu turned his mind and said with a smile, "brother, why don''t I go with you to have a look."


    "No problem!"


    Zhao Yun answered directly.


    Yang Xiu calls to the royal guards and transfers some money. Then, together with Zhao Yun, he leaves the Inn and goes to the south of Yijing city.


    This is a mountain village outside the city.


    The mountains are vast and the terrain is flat.


    Zhao Yun came to the home of a veteran of Baima Yicong. After Zhao Yun and the veteran exchanged greetings, Yang Xiu saw it in his eyes, but his heart was open.


    The old soldier in front of me is Tian Sheng.


    His age is in his early thirties, because the wrist of his left hand was cut by the blade on the battlefield, resulting in damage to the strength of his left hand. Although it''s not very important to hold the reins in the left hand and lift the knife in the sprint, it''s affected by some factors after all.


    But Yang Xiu said, "brother Tian, would you like to go south with me?"


    "Ah


    When Tian Sheng heard this, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    He was a man who didn''t know big words. He was not worthy of the title of brother Tian. He quickly said to himself, "Yang Changshi, my left hand has been injured. Although my right hand is intact, it will be affected when I fight. Can I still fight? "


    "Yes


    Yang Xiu said confidently: "however, you are not fighting on the battlefield, but training soldiers. A veteran like you, who has been on the battlefield and has enough experience, would be a pity if he is old in the countryside. You have a lot of experience and can be responsible for the training of soldiers. You are willing to go south. Because this time he went south, he would reconstitute Baima Yicong. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Tian Sheng''s face was full of bright smile. He was eager to have something to do.


    He has nothing to do at home.


    Farming day by day is not something he likes. He has a lonely family. He doesn''t want to die at home.


    "Well, that''s fine."


    Yang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun and said with a smile, "brother, this is the decision about Tian Sheng."


    "Thank you very much," Zhao said


    As for Yang Xiu''s arrangement, Zhao Yun is fully in favor of it. He can''t wait for Tian Sheng to have something to do and Baima Yi to regain his former glory.


    Yang Xiu also said other arrangements, and finally told Tian Sheng to leave for the south early tomorrow morning, let Tian Sheng wait at the gate of the inn, so as to leave together.


    After dealing with Tian Sheng, Yang Xiu and Zhao Yun go to the next family. This time, most of the people were only injured. But as long as it wasn''t someone with a broken arm and a missing leg, Yang Xiu recruited all of them.


    Before that, when Zhao Yun visited, he did not solicit the injured because he did not know how to settle them. But Yang Xiu is the direct master, take these people away.


    Yang Xiu is not the chief General in the army, but he knows the role of veterans. A real veteran can play a mainstay role in the army.


    This is extremely useful.


    Even some injured Baima Yicong, Yang Xiu all stayed. As for the rest, Yang Xiucai gave some money to those who had broken their arms and legs, so that they could live in peace.One day, Yang Xiu was very tired.


    Back at the inn, it was late.


    Zhao Yun, with a grateful look on his face, clasped his hands and solemnly said, "thank you, my dear brother."


    Yang xiuxiao said: "brother, you are welcome. As far as I am concerned, although I have left them, in fact, I do not use them for public or private purposes. Because these white horses are really useful. If they don''t work, I can''t help them. This is what I should do, so I don''t have to thank you, brother. "


    "No, I don''t know what I can do without you, these old brothers?"


    Zhao Yun''s eyes were full of gratitude.


    Yang Xiu said with a smile: "when it comes to the placement of veterans, it also shows the difference between the Lord and Gongsun Zan. In addition to the generous pension for the soldiers who left the army because of injuries under the Lord, the Lord also specially arranged things for them to do so that they can support their families. "


    After a pause, Yang xiudao said: "Gongsun Zan is here. After the soldiers are injured, no one will take care of them any more. With a small sum of money, you can live and die at home. "


    Zhao Yun said, "how did Zhang Taiwei do it?"


    Yang Xiu replied: "the Lord specially arranged for the soldiers who left the battlefield to patrol the city and maintain the safety of the cities. Besides, transport some equipment and do what you can. In a word, the government will find something for them to do. After they leave the army, they will not have nothing to do. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Zhang Taiwei is benevolent and righteous."


    Yang said: "it''s true that the soldiers are righteous. Looking around the world, no one has given such kind treatment to the soldiers in the army, so that they have no worries. "


    "The Lord is really unusual in this respect."


    "In addition, this is also the reason why the soldiers in the army dare to fight to the death."


    "Only by using one''s life can one be invincible on the battlefield, can one keep fighting on the battlefield, and can one be brave and not afraid of death. Because even if they are injured or disabled, there are people who can solve their worries. "


    Yang Xiu looks confident. When it comes to the placement of Zhang Xiu, he is very proud.


    Zhao Yun said: "my brother is right!"


    At this time, Zhao Yun had more expectations for Zhang Xiu.


    He wants to see Zhang Xiu.


    Especially between other and Zhang Xiu, that also has some relations, just, don''t know whether Zhang Xiu knows? They were chatting, but they didn''t realize the passage of time. In the twinkling of an eye, Zhao Yun and Yang Xiu went to have a rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhao Yun and Yang Xiu got up early. When they had breakfast and just walked out of the inn, they were surprised to see that there were more than 60 people outside the inn, all of whom were veterans of Baima Yicong.


    One by one, his face was full of expectation and joy.


    They have something to do.


    "Let''s go!"


    Yang Xiu brushed his sleeves and gave an order.


    They set out and headed south to Hanoi County via Jizhou. In the name of a businessman, Yang Xiu made his way smoothly without any obstacles.

 Chapter 527

    In early April, Yang Xiu left Jizhou and returned to dangyin county. However, when he returned to dangyin County, he didn''t take the official road. Instead, he took the path to the county of dangyin county.


    This is for fear that Yuan Shao''s army will be attacked on the way.


    But after a long walk, Yang Xiu was relieved. Because Yang Xiu got the news, he heard that Yuan Shao had been defeated by Zhang Xiu and had been trapped in the county seat of dangyin county at the expense of his troops.


    On the contrary, it was Zhang Xiu who had a strong army and occupied an advantage.


    Under such circumstances, Yang Xiu was even more happy. He looked at Zhao Yun and said, "brother, do you see that? The battle between the Lord and Yuan Shao did not involve Zhang Yan in Heishan, nor did the news of Gongsun Zan''s sending troops spread that the LORD had gained an advantage. Although Yuan Shao is strong, he is still vulnerable in front of the Lord. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhao Yun nodded and answered.


    As the chief General of Baima Yicong, Zhao Yun once fought with Yuan Shao''s army under the order of Gongsun Zan. Knowing the strength of Yuan Shao''s army, Yuan Shao was defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    It''s really surprising.


    Everyone knows that Yuan Shao''s strength is stronger, but Yuan Shao is still defeated.


    They are on their way quickly. At this time, Yang Xiu has arranged for someone to send back the news first, and report what he has done in Youzhou to Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu can know.


    If Zhao Yun is not involved, Yang Xiu will not be the first to send back the news. He will wait until he returns to the camp and tell Zhang Xiu Gongsun Zan about his willingness to send troops.


    But this time, Zhao Yun was also involved.


    He sent someone to send the letter back in advance, just to prepare Zhang Xiu.


    Avoid ignoring Zhao Yun.


    When Yang Xiu and Zhao Yun came to the gate of the camp north of dangyin County, they were surprised to see Zhang Xiu waiting at the gate of the camp.


    Yang Xiu got out of the carriage.


    Now it''s less than 20 steps from the gate of the camp.


    Yang Xiu personally got out of the carriage and walked over. That was his respect for Zhang Xiu. Zhao Yun and Baima Yicong, who accompanied him, also turned over and got off the horse and led the horse forward.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Yang Xiu and his party, and looks happy.


    It''s Yang Xiu.


    Good job.


    After a trip to Youzhou, he not only completed the task of persuading Gongsun Zan, but also recruited Zhao Yun.


    It''s just amazing.


    Zhang Xiu waits quietly. Soon, Yang Xiu comes to Zhang Xiu with the crowd. Yang Xiu folded his hands, bowed his hands to salute, and solemnly said, "humble Yang Xiu, meet your Lord."


    "Zhao Yun, meet Taiwei."


    Zhao Yun is also boxing.


    "See you, Taiwei!"


    The rest of the fifty white horses were very excited.


    They met Zhang Xiu.


    But Zhang Xiu is really young. However, Zhang Xiu is in a high position and has an extraordinary bearing. Rao is so. In the eyes of white horses, it''s all an accident, because Zhang Xiu is too young.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is only in her early twenties.


    Zhang Xiu walked up to Yang Xiu, reached for Yang Xiu and said, "dezu, you are my hero of Zhang Xiu. This trip to Youzhou is very good, very good! "


    He said two good things in succession.


    When Yang Xiu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he felt relieved.


    Zhang Xiu released Yang Xiu and walked up to Zhao Yun again. She said with a smile, "younger martial brother, why do you have to be so outsider when you and I meet for the first time?"


    Yang Xiu''s eyes were wide open. It was an accident.


    Is Zhao Yun Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother?


    It''s impossible.


    Zhao Yun looks a few years older than Zhang Xiu. From Youzhou to the south, Zhao Yun and Yang Xiu became brothers all the way. From the beginning to the end, Zhao Yun never revealed anything.


    Even if the rest of the fifty white horses were righteous, their faces were stunned.


    Zhao Yun, their commander, is actually Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother.


    At first, the white horses were stunned, then they were happy. Since Zhao Yun is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother, can they still suffer losses when they come under Zhang Xiu''s command?


    Zhang Xiu''s a younger martial brother, let all white horse righteousness from ease.


    It was Zhao Yun with a bitter smile.


    He didn''t want to announce the relationship with Zhang Xiu in public. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu directly broke this layer of relationship in front of everyone.


    Zhang Xiu learned from Tong Yuan two or three years earlier than Zhao Yun. At that time, Zhang Xiu was young when she was a teacher, and she didn''t follow Tong Yuan for a long time.


    Zhang Xiu left Tong Yuan at the age of weak crown.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Zhao Yuncai learned how to shoot under Tong Yuan''s door. Zhao Yun, as Tong Yuan''s close disciple, knows the existence of Zhang Xiu and that although Zhang Xiu is a senior brother, he is younger than him.


    However, in Zhao Yun''s cognition, Zhang Xiu left Tong Yuan early years and never went back to visit him afterwards. She should not know about his apprenticeship to Tong Yuan.


    As long as Zhao Yun doesn''t say it, no one will know about it.But I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu even knew his existence and directly pointed it out. In this way, he did not know what to do. He is not a man who is willing to rely on human power. He is more willing to rely on his own martial arts to make contributions on the battlefield.


    Now, Zhao Yun can''t avoid it and says: "elder martial brother!"


    Zhang Xiu patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I received a letter from dezu. I learned that you went south together and waited for a long time. Not only because you are my younger martial brother, but also because you are from Baima Yicong. "


    Zhao Yun was shocked.


    He heard Zhang Xiu say that because he came from Baima Yicong, he had a feeling of being recognized.


    He doesn''t want to be related.


    He wants to be recognized because of his ability.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if you are only my younger martial brother, but have no ability, I will not reuse you. Once a person is in a high position, he will harm others and himself. "


    "I rely on talents to govern the army and local areas."


    "Only real talents can stand under my command. Baima Yicong is famous all over the world. You are the chief General of Baima Yicong. I believe in you, and I believe in Baima Yicong even more. "


    "White horse justice from a, vertical and horizontal invincible."


    "I hope that under my command, you can reappear the prestige of Baima Yicong and the invincible style of Baima Yicong."


    Zhang Xiu encouraged.


    Zhao Yun listens to Zhang Xiu''s words, and his blood boils. He is willing to reproduce the elegant demeanor of Baima Yicong, and is more willing to revive Baima Yicong under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhao Yun Baoquan way: "Zhao Yun, willing to drive for the Lord."


    Then he knelt down.


    "I''d like to urge you!"


    The other 50 white horses knelt down.


    All of them knelt down on the ground with Zhao Yun, and the look on their faces was extremely solemn. Because they are from Baima Yicong, they also want to revive the prestige of Baima Yicong.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the scene, holding Zhao Yun in her hands, let all the white horses rise up, and said, "today, I''ll take charge of the white horses by worshiping Zhao Yun. I declare that the white horse will be rebuilt. "


    "I''ll do it


    Zhao Yun holds his fist.


    At this moment, Zhao Yun''s face was in high spirits, and his whole body had power again.


    In Zhao Yun''s mind, the image of Liu Bei, who once had an intimate relationship with him, gradually dissipated. Once upon a time, Zhao Yun believed that Liu Bei was a wise master and worthy of service.


    Here in Zhang Xiu, the other party is not only his elder martial brother, but also willing to help him rebuild the heart of Bai Ma Yicong and Zhao Yun, and has a stronger sense of belonging here in Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu, with a happy look on her face, brings Zhao Yun and Yang Xiu into the house, and asks people to arrange the residence of Baima Yicong.


    Go back to the big account of the Chinese army and take your seats.


    Zhang Xiuxian asked Yang Xiu about what he had seen and heard about going north. Hearing Yang Xiu''s comment on Gongsun Zan, Zhang Xiu is noncommittal, because how Gongsun Zan degenerates has nothing to do with Zhang Xiu.


    It only needs Gongsun Zan to send troops.


    According to the calculation of time, Yang xiudu arrived in dangyin county. Gongsun Zan must have sent troops from Yijing to attack the rear of Yuan Shao.


    He may even fight yuan Jun.

 Chapter 528

    Zhao Yun took the initiative to say: "Lord..."


    As soon as she spoke, she was interrupted by Zhang Xiu and said, "you and I are brothers. Why? Between you and me, you can no longer call the Lord, just call my elder martial brother. You and I are the same, parents died, no family. Although they are brothers, they are better than brothers. "


    Zhao Yun was embarrassed.


    He didn''t want to call Zhang Xiu elder martial brother.


    It''s not that Zhang Xiu is not recognized, it''s because Zhang Xiu is called elder martial brother, which is suspected of being attached.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m going to be angry if I call my lord again."


    Zhao Yun said with a bitter smile: "elder martial brother!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said, "I know what you think, younger martial brother. You''re worried that if you call me elder martial brother, you''ll be criticized, and you''ll be regarded as attached, right?"


    Zhao Yun nodded and said slowly, "when I first came here, I didn''t make any contributions, and I didn''t fight in battle, so I was suddenly worshipped as a general. I''m afraid some soldiers in the army are not convinced."


    After a pause, Zhao Yun said: "elder martial brother, I''d rather start from the bottom. White horse righteousness from the beginning, also don''t need to have many people, just need to have 300. I started with 300 soldiers, step by step to strengthen my strength. "


    "It doesn''t have to be so much trouble."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "you are my younger martial brother, who dares to say what?"? Most importantly, you have enough strength. That''s why I will worship you as a general and let you take charge of Baima Yicong. "


    Zhao Yun frowned slightly.


    Zhang Xiu said so, but in his heart, he didn''t want to.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "next, I''ll set up the white horse Yicong. I''ll give you 3000 cavalry places. If you want money, I''ll give you money. If you want food, I''ll give you food. If you want weapons, I''ll give you weapons. What you have to do is to set up the most elite white horse Yicong. "


    "Of course, I have taken into account your concerns just now."


    "Next, I will send troops to the county seat of dangyin county. When you get outside the county, you fight. It''s a mule, it''s a horse. If you take it out for a walk, you''ll know. "


    "Soldiers in the army are simple and honest, and advocate the strong."


    "Go to war, show your ability, and let the officers and men in the army know. In this way, no one dares to say anything. A person with strength, no matter whether he has made war achievements or not, has been appointed as a general of the captured army, and no one dares to say anything. "


    Zhang Xiu gave a reply.


    After hearing this, Zhao Yun was also relieved and said, "what elder martial brother said is true!"


    Zhao Yun has no opinion on Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. Because this arrangement is the most appropriate. Only in this way can the soldiers in the army be convinced. Only in this way can the soldiers be made effective.


    No one would object to his formation of white horse Yicong.


    Zhao Yun has a proud man in his heart. He hopes to conquer the soldiers in the army with his own strength.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Yang Xiu and dealt with everything. Then, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun again and asked, "younger martial brother, you have a long journey. Do you need a rest? Will you come back tomorrow?"


    "No need!"


    Zhao Yun answered directly.


    In his heart, his blood was boiling.


    His heart, looking forward to the war.


    In recent years, he kept filial piety for his elder brother. Although he didn''t take part in the war, he dreamt back in the middle of the night. I don''t know how many times he dreamt that he led Baima Yicong to fight on the battlefield.


    Now, there is another opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "come on!"


    When a soldier entered, Zhang Xiu ordered: "beat the drum, raise the soldiers, and call all the soldiers together."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers backed down.


    Not long after that, the camp sounded the rumble of war drums.


    The sound of war drums resounded inside and outside the camp. It was the sound of beating drums and raising troops. Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Dao and others quickly gathered the troops after they got the news.


    Zhang Xiu took Yang Xiu, Zhao Yun, Wang Yue and others to the barracks and gave the order to set out.


    This departure surprised Huang Zhong.


    Zhang Xiu did not summon, did not discuss the issue of sending troops, directly ordered, really surprised him. Huang Zhong came to Zhang Xiu and asked, "Lord, are we going to attack dangyin County today?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head directly.


    Huang Zhong said: "since we don''t attack, we go to dangyin county. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said: "two things."


    "First of all, Yang Xiu returned from Youzhou and finished his task. Gongsun Zan promised to send troops from Youzhou to attack Yuan Shao. Now, Gongsun Zan has fought with Yuan Jun


    "I want to tell Yuan Shao the news."


    "To weaken yuan''s morale."


    "The second thing is to arrange Zhao Yun to fight. Zhao Yun is my younger martial brother. He is good at shooting. His attainments in marksmanship are more profound than mine. Let him go to battle. "


    Zhang Xiu expounds two reasons.


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong couldn''t help looking at Zhao Yun, a white horse and white robe not far away.Huang Zhong knows Zhang Xiu''s marksmanship. Although Zhang Xiu''s strength has long been independent of his marksmanship moves, he can achieve the effect of one force down to ten meetings.


    Zhao Yun is more accomplished than Zhang Yun in gun embroidery.


    Of course, Zhang Xiu''s overall strength is definitely better than Zhao Yun today. Because Zhang Xiu is not only good at shooting, but also powerful enough to crush countless exquisite martial arts.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Huang Zhong didn''t say much, so he stepped aside.


    Zhao Yun didn''t speak from beginning to end, while Zhang Xiu introduced Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Zhi and others to Zhao Yun. In the chat, the army had already arrived outside the city of dangyin county.


    "Beat the drum!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, under the order.


    "Dong! Dong! Dong! "


    The battle drums resound outside the city of dangyin county.


    The mighty sound of war drums, fierce, straight into the sky, shocking. With the sound of the drum, Yuan Jun''s soldiers on the city tower, one by one, gathered up their spirits and suddenly became on guard.


    During this period, Zhang Xiu did not make any moves, did not challenge, and did not attack dangyin county. Both sides were at peace.


    In fact, they have their own plans.


    Zhang Xiu and other Gongsun Zan sent troops, also waiting for Zhang Yan''s action. On the other hand, Yuan Shao is also waiting for senior cadres to send troops.


    So that neither side took any action. All of a sudden, Zhang Xiu broke the balance and brought the soldiers to fight, which made yuan Jun''s soldiers nervous.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Yuan Jun''s soldiers had fear and fear.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    On the tower, Yuan Shao came in a hurry. He was dressed in a golden helmet and armor, shining all over, like a light bulb shining in the dark, attracting the eyes of countless people.


    He held his hands on the wall and looked at the army of Zhang Xiu outside the city with sharp eyes.


    During this period, Yuan Shao''s army was constantly strengthening the city walls and strengthening the defense measures of the county. Therefore, Yuan Shao is not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s attack. Even though his troops were slightly weaker than Zhang Xiu''s, Yuan Shao was still fearless.


    After a while, the drums died down completely.


    Inside and outside the county seat of dangyin County, it suddenly calmed down, and there was no more sound.


    Between heaven and earth, there is an incomparable silence,


    "Da! "Da!"


    The sound of the horse''s hooves broke the silence.


    Zhao Yun rode out on his own.


    Dressed in a white horse and white robe, he drove his horse to the battlefield, only 60 steps away from the county seat of dangyin county. Holding a silver spear, he pointed to the tower and said, "Zhao Yun is here. Who dares to fight?"


    The deep and loud voice resounded through the battlefield.


    One man and one horse, single pick yuan Jun general.


    This battle clearly spread to Yuan Shao on the upper floor of the city.


    Yuan Shao blinked. Subconsciously, he thought it might be Zhang Xiu''s calculation again. But on second thought, how could such a war be a calculation.


    Absolutely impossible!


    Yuan Shao was also cautious. He looked at the people under his command and asked, "do you know this man?"

 Chapter 529

    "I don''t know!"


    Xu you took the lead in opening his mouth and shook his head: "according to our investigation of Zhang Xiu''s intelligence, there has never been a person named Zhao Yun under Zhang Xiu''s command. Estimate, this is a small role, is Zhang Xiu intentionally sent to fight


    Jushou echoed: "the generals under Zhang Xiu''s command are Huang Zhong, the flying bear army, Gan Ning, the fierce tiger army, and Chen Dao, the wolf tooth camp. These are the most important generals under Zhang Xiu''s command, all of whom are highly skilled in martial arts. These people have never been in battle. For the time being, Zhao Yun is a nobody. "


    Fengji also said: "Lord, this man really has no reputation."


    The rest echoed.


    When Yuan Shao heard the reply, his face was full of joy.


    Just be a nobody.


    To defeat such a person can weaken Zhang Xiu''s face.


    Ju Shu''s eyes turned and said again, "the meaning of the Lord is to send a general out of the city to defeat Zhao Yun?"


    "Yes


    Yuan Shao nodded.


    Ju continued: "but the problem is that once Zhao Yun is defeated, Zhang Xiu will send Huang Zhong and others to challenge him. At that time, our people will be invincible. Without such great masters as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, we can''t fight against Zhang Xiu alone. "


    "No harm!"


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said: "even if Zhang Xiu sent Huang Zhong to come, at that time, we would not fight. In a word, beat this nobody first and sweep away the shame. "


    When he hears the words, he will not speak more.


    "Lord, please fight


    At this time, a tiger general came out to fight.


    His name is Chun Yu Qiong.


    He is a tiger general under Yuan Shao''s command. Although Chunyu Qiong''s martial arts are not as good as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, he is also a tiger general. He dares to fight and kill. He is highly valued by Yuan Shao and is one of Yuan Shao''s most trusted generals.


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "Chunyu Qiong, the man from outside is a nobody, not an important person. Such a person is not worth your end. "


    Chunyu Qiong felt sorry when she heard the speech.


    This is his chance.


    "Father, son, fight!"


    At this time, however, a man came forward to fight. The people who stood out were in their early twenties, nearly thirty years old, and were rather burly.


    His name is Yuan Tan!


    He is the eldest son of Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Tan looks at Zhao Yun outside the city with a look of potential in his eyes. Through the words of Ju and others just now, he knows that Zhao Yun''s strength is not strong and can be easily defeated.


    At this time, he went out of the city to defeat Zhao Yun, which established a meritorious service and gained prestige.


    This is a great opportunity.


    Yuan Tan doesn''t want to miss it.


    Especially in front of all the soldiers, it is easy to defeat Zhao Yun, which will build up prestige in the army and help him to take charge of the army.


    "Father, son, fight."


    At this time, another man came forward to fight.


    The person who stood out was very similar to Yuan Shao in appearance and was of a strong figure.


    This is yuan Shang.


    Yuan Shang raised his head. He took a look at Yuan Tan and said, "it''s just Zhao Yun. It''s just a small role. My elder brother is very good at martial arts. When I fight Zhao Yun, it''s an ox knife to kill chickens. I don''t need my elder brother''s hand. Just give it to me. "


    After a pause, Yuan Shang looked at Yuan Shao and said, "my father often teaches my son how to support his troops for a thousand days. My son has been practicing martial arts with his father for many years. He asked himself what he had learned. Now, my son asks for a fight. "


    Yuan Shao''s eyes first fell on Yuan Tan and said, "Xiansi, what your third brother said is true. You follow your father and have rich experience. You don''t need to fight Zhao Yun any more. Today''s battle is up to shang''er. "


    Yuan Tan''s cheek twitched.


    Deep in his eyes, there was a touch of resentment and jealousy.


    He hated Yuan Shao''s injustice.


    No matter what it was, Yuan Shao turned to Yuan Shang. There are delicious food for yuan Shang; there are royal clothes for yuan Shang; Yuan Shang''s life is to get wind and rain, but he can get nothing.


    Therefore, he was jealous of Yuan Shang.


    But in the face of Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan couldn''t refute him. He could only honestly say, "what my father said is true. If the third younger brother wants to play, let him go. But Zhang Xiu is cunning. Third brother should be careful of Zhao Yun. Even if his reputation is unlimited, what if Zhao Yun is extremely powerful? "


    Yuan Shang listened to Yuan Tan''s words, but he sneered in his heart.


    He thought that Yuan Tan was too worried.


    Obviously, this is an opportunity for him. How can he miss it?


    Yuan Shang, with a bright smile on his face, replied: "brother reminds me of this. Don''t worry, brother. I will defeat Zhao Yun. "


    Yuan Tan hummed in his heart and said nothing more.


    Yuan Shao had high hopes for yuan Shang. He patted yuan Shang on the shoulder with a look of expectation on his face and said with a smile: "Shang Er, this is your chance. Since we are at war with Zhao Yun, we need to win gracefully. We need to be clean and go all out. Don''t delay. "


    "Son, I understand!"


    Yuan Shang gave a reply.He has great confidence in this battle and thinks that he will surely win it.


    "Father, my son is leaving!"


    Yuan Shang was wearing a helmet, a sword hanging from his waist, and carrying a big gun, he went downstairs.


    "Yuan Shao, how dare you fight?"


    Zhao Yun, under the tower of the city, began to shout again. For his first battle, Zhao Yun is full of strength, holding great hope. He didn''t worry about losing the enemy. What he worried about was that Yuan Shao didn''t dare to send people to fight for the first time and let him return in vain.


    Hearing Zhao Yun''s words, Yuan Shao said coldly, "nameless rat, you wait. Someone will come to clean you up soon."


    When Zhao Yun heard the speech, he began to smile.


    He''s looking forward to it.


    After hearing Yuan Shao''s words, Zhang Xiu also looks forward to who Yuan Shao will send to fight.


    Zhang Xiu knows Zhao Yun''s martial arts, but Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Chen Dao, and even the thousands of soldiers in the army have not seen Zhao Yun do it. It''s not clear how good Zhao Yun''s martial arts are.


    After all, Zhao Yun came to the barracks and no one knew him, so some people in the army talked about it.


    Discuss who Zhao Yun is.


    Discuss the outcome of Zhao Yun.


    The gate creaked open amid the public''s comments.


    Yuan Shang was wearing silver armor and helmet. He had a silver gun in his hand, and his whole body was incomparable. But on Yuan Shang''s face, he had a strong self-confidence. He often fought with his family''s warriors and thought that his martial arts had been quite powerful.


    When Yuan Shang went out of the city, he deliberately did not lift the reins, but only clamped the horse''s belly with his legs to show his equestrian skills.


    When he came to the outside of the city, his eyes fell on Zhao Yun, his jaw rose, and he said haughtily, "Zhao Yun, young child, you are an unknown person. You are just going to die. You''re dead, nothing. Today, as long as you submit to me, I will not only give you an official title, but also entrust you with an important task. "


    Yuan Shang did it on purpose.


    If Zhao Yun can surrender, it will sweep Zhang Xiu''s face.


    Zhao Yun sneered: "why do you surrender me?"


    Yuan Shang replied, "I am yuan Shang, the third son of general Yuan Shao. As long as you follow me, you will have a bright future. You are willing to turn from the dark to the light


    "You are here to die!"


    Zhao Yun sneered, he did not put yuan Shang in the eye. At this time, Zhao Yun''s heart, already saved won yuan Shang''s mind, in order to attack Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shang still did not give up and said again, "Zhao Yun, do you really want to go to the end?"


    "Yes


    Zhao Yun in the hands of the gentian bright silver gun up, said: "can dare a war?"


    "To die!"


    When Yuan Shang heard Zhao Yun''s words, Junlang''s cheek was cold. Zhao Yun took the initiative to give him a toast


    The long gun in his hand was shaking in the air, and the shining tip of the gun was flashing cold light in the air, straight to Zhao Yun''s throat.


    Zhao Yun holds a gun and blocks it.


    As soon as the Longdan silver gun came out, the big gun swept across. With a bang, it hit Yuan Shao''s silver gun and swung away yuan Shang''s long gun.


    Zhao Yun raised his eyebrows and looked surprised.


    As a person who is used to using guns, Zhao Yun can roughly feel the strength of the other side when he fights with the other side. In the fight just now, the strength of the other side''s gun was weak. He just flicked the other side''s long gun.


    Its power is too weak.


    Similarly, Yuan Shang was extremely surprised.


    Yuan Shang asked himself that his strength was outstanding, but in the fight just now, he and Zhao Yun''s long gun collided. He only felt that the strength of the other side was overwhelming, which made him unable to resist.


    Strong!


    It''s so strong!


    If it had not been for his alertness, holding the barrel of the gun, the silver guns in his hands would have been knocked out.

 Chapter 530

    Yuan Shangxin thought quickly and thought about the solution. He has been practicing martial arts for many years, and he knows something about his own martial arts. In particular, when I met Zhao Yun just now, I knew that I couldn''t stop the other side. I was not the enemy of the other side.


    If we fight again, we may lose.


    He is Yuan Shao''s son. If he falls into Zhao Yun''s hands, the consequences will be unimaginable. So yuan Shang quickly turned his brain to find a way to solve the problem, so as to withdraw to the city.


    "Zhao Yun, take your life!"


    All of a sudden, Yuan Shang roared and his spear came out again.


    Zhao Yun looks in the eye, the corners of his mouth evoke a smile. Because in today''s situation, he has an absolute advantage. The next move, he will fly yuan Shang''s long gun, and then take yuan Shang.


    But when Zhao Yun was ready to block the counterattack, suddenly, his eyes shrank.


    The gun in Yuan Shang''s hand, directly out of the hand.


    And then, flying towards him.


    Yuan Shang no longer fought and gave up his silver gun. When the long gun was thrown at Zhao Yun, Yuan Shang quickly turned his horse''s head and ran to the city.


    "Dang!"


    Zhao Yun Longdan Liang silver gun, a gun easily hit, swing away the long gun.


    This is also far away from Yuan Shang.


    Both sides are under the tower, suddenly a certain distance apart, Zhao Yun can not chase further. Because Yuan Shao''s soldiers control the area downstairs in qianfangcheng. Once Zhao Yun gets close, the archers of the other side can shoot him into a meat sieve.


    Zhao Yun was surprised.


    Unexpectedly, after Yuan Shang made a move, he retreated directly.


    As a result, Zhao Yunsheng lost the chance to capture yuan Shang, and he was also quite regretful.


    Such a scene, not only Zhao Yun stunned, including Zhang Xiu and others, one by one look on the face, there are also surprised look. No one thought that yuan Shanggang came out to slip around and ran away.


    When Zhang Xiu heard the name of Yuan Shang, he hoped that Zhao Yun would win yuan Shang. However, the action of Yuan Shang''s police surprised Zhang Xiu. However, she didn''t win yuan Shang, but Zhao Yun won, which was not bad.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu pretended to be sarcastic and laughed.


    One by one, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command began to jeer, all of them laughing loudly.


    One after another, the sound of ridicule sounded outside the city.


    Zhao Yun, with the jeers of the soldiers in the rear, roared: "Yuan Shao, is this your precious son? Are you sure yuan is not out to be funny. It''s really disappointing for you, yuan shaoting. If Zhao Yun is here, how dare Yuan Shao fight? "


    Yuan Shao''s cheek twitched constantly, and his face was cold and solemn. He had the idea of hating iron but not steel.


    Damn yuan Shang!


    Even though Yuan Shao doted on Yuan Shang, before the battle, Yuan Shang threw away his weapons and fled, which was a disgrace.


    His soldiers, all of them.


    There was no light on their faces.


    Looking at Yuan Shang''s look, there was mockery and disdain. A man like yuan Shang is just a silver spear and a wax head. He is not good at using.


    Yuan Tan''s face was full of smiles.


    Earlier, he took the initiative to fight and was rejected by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao asked yuan Shang to go, but now under the castle, Yuan Shang fled without fighting, losing his face. Under such circumstances, Yuan Tan was very happy.


    Yuan Shang was disgraced, and he was happy to see his success.


    After a while, Yuan Shang ascended the city building, and Yuan Tan couldn''t help saying, "third brother, what a wonderful fight you just had. You represent your father. You represent countless yuan Jun soldiers. They threw away their weapons and retreated. I, Yuan Jun, have never seen anyone like you. I''ve really lost my father''s face. "


    Yuan Shang was angry when he heard that, but Yuan Tan was jealous of him.


    Although yuan Shang is a little younger, he is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He snorted: "brother, you didn''t go up to fight. You are not qualified to blame me. The strength of Zhao Yun is extremely strong. "


    "There''s no point in your covering up like this."


    Yuan Tan raised his head and was not satisfied with Yuan Shang''s prevarication.


    If you lose, say the other side is better.


    It''s a buck passing.


    In Yuan Shang''s eyes, a light flashed and he said: "brother, you don''t have a pain in the back when you stand. If you have the ability, you can go and fight with Zhao Yun. But I''d like to remind you that you''d better be careful. Otherwise, you are the son of your father. Once you become the prisoner of the other party, you will really lose your father''s face. "


    After a pause, Yuan Shang said: "in the battlefield, losing face is a small matter. If he becomes the hostage of the other party, his father will be in a dilemma."


    "No way!"


    Yuan Tan big sleeve a brush, throw the ground to have a voice: "I Yuan Tan battle, how can defeat."


    With that, Yuan Tan said: "father, son, please fight."


    "Go


    Yuan Shao waved his hand.


    He glanced at Yuan Shang and solemnly said, "Shang Er, Zhao Yun is really powerful. Can you resist it?"


    Yuan Shang replied, "my father knows the nature of my son. Just as the son said just now, although the son took the initiative to evacuate, his father lost face. But the son, judging the situation, would rather lose face than be taken hostage by the other party. Because the son continues to fight with the other side, he may be captured by the other side alive. "Yuan Shao nodded without saying much.


    Yuan Shao looked at the generals under his command, and these generals still had some comments. Obviously because of what happened just now, he was very dissatisfied with Yuan Shang''s performance. After all, Yuan Shang withdrew directly.


    "Hope, Xiansi can win!"


    In Yuan Shao''s heart, although he believed yuan Shang''s words, he also hoped that Yuan Tan could defeat Zhao Yun.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of the horse''s hooves rings from the gate of the city.


    Yuan Tan came out of the gate with a long knife. With the blade in his hand and a cold look on his face, he said, "Zhao Yun, you just defeated my third brother, but that''s all. Today next year is your memorial day. "


    When Zhao Yun heard the name of his third brother, he asked, "who are you?"


    Yuan Tan said, "I am Yuan Tan!"


    Zhao Yun put a smile on his mouth and said, "your brother is stupid, so are you. However, your brother is smart enough to retreat as soon as he sees defeat. He has self-knowledge. Yuan Tan, you want to kill me, but I want to capture you alive. "


    "No way!"


    Yuan Tan''s face was full of disdain.


    "Take my knife!"


    Yuan Tan kicked the horse''s belly and drove the horse to charge quickly. With the help of the power of the horse sprint, he was fast and powerful. In a twinkling of an eye, he had reached Zhao Yun''s body and cut it off with a knife.


    Zhao Yun didn''t move forward. He did it on purpose.


    Zhao Yun is about 80 steps away from the tower of dangyin county. At this distance, after winning Yuan Tan, even if the other side arched, even if the other side sent people out of the city, it was difficult to take over.


    If Zhao Yun drives his horse forward, within a short distance, the opponent can shoot arrows to suppress him, or even send someone to meet him.


    The distance between ten and twenty steps is also crucial.


    Seeing that Yuan Tan swung his sword to chop, Zhao Yun''s Dragon Dan bright silver gun was raised and swung it to sweep. He didn''t win with the agility of his shooting, because even if he hurt his opponent badly, he might run away.


    We must win by strength!


    In one move, defeat the opponent.


    In the twinkling of an eye, he reached the front of Yuan Tan''s sword.


    "Dang!"


    Two weapons, they hit each other.


    The sound of percussion, stinging eardrum.


    At the next moment, the mighty power poured out from the bright silver gun of the Dragon gall and rushed into the sword. Yuan Tan''s power, like a candle in the wind, was extinguished immediately in front of Zhao Yun''s power.


    Yuan Tan''s palm is torn.


    Under the severe pain, Yuan Tan could not hold the handle of the knife, and the long knife was knocked out directly.


    At this moment, Yuan Tan''s face changed greatly.


    Yuan Tan wants to retreat, but just at this time, Zhao Yun''s silver gun is smashed down again. The long gun left a shadow in the air. In the twinkling of an eye, it had reached Yuan Tan''s side.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    If Yuan Tan''s body was struck by lightning, he felt that his body had borne the incomparable strength. His body flew directly from the horse and fell to the ground.


    Zhao Yun rode forward with a gun in his left hand. One of them bent sideways and bent down. As soon as he fished with his right hand, he grabbed Yuan Tan''s clothes on the ground and pulled Yuan Tan with one hand to run back quickly.


    After running ten steps, Zhao Yun gave a low drink and threw Yuan Tan out with his right hand. Under the powerful power of Zhao Yun, Yuan Tan''s body was out of control, and he crossed an arc in the air and fell to the ground.


    "Ah


    The scream came from Yuan Tan''s mouth.


    Yuan Tan felt pain all over his body, and his bones seemed to fall apart. Especially the other viscera, all pain. Yuan Tan, who fell to the ground, had deep despair in his eyes.


    It''s over!


    He''s a prisoner!

 Chapter 531

    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes and cried out.


    "Mighty


    When Huang Zhong saw this, he cried out.


    This is to cheer for Zhao Yun.


    This is to deliberately guide the rhythm and enhance the morale and fighting spirit of the soldiers in the army.


    "Mighty


    "Mighty


    The soldiers in the army began to shout.


    One after another, the cries echoed inside and outside the city. When the soldiers looked at Zhao Yun, their eyes began to change. Soldiers in the army have always respected the strong.


    Zhao Yun defeated yuan Shang first, and then captured Yuan Tan, which convinced the soldiers in the army.


    Countless soldiers, all shouting.


    Fierce momentum, straight into the sky.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is full of morale and momentum. But on the other hand, Yuan Shao''s facial expressions collapsed, and they were all sad and solemn.


    Yuan Shao''s face was completely black.


    Damn Yuan Tan!


    He''s a real prisoner.


    At this time, Yuan Shao suddenly found that he thought yuan was good and had self-knowledge. When Yuan Shao didn''t meet his son as a prisoner, he didn''t think about it and didn''t think about it.


    But when Yuan Shang''s words became a prophecy and Yuan Tan Zhen became a prisoner, Yuan Shao''s heart was completely flustered.


    The situation has become complicated and difficult.


    What to do?


    What should he do?


    "Yuan Shao, how dare you fight?"


    At this time, Zhao Yun''s voice sounded again from outside the city.


    Yuan Shao saw Zhao Yun with a fierce light in his eyes. He thought that Zhao Yun was a nobody, but he didn''t expect that Zhao Yun captured his son alive, which led to the damage of his morale.


    Jushi sighed with a sigh and said: "Lord, today''s situation is that Zhao Yun is a nobody. However, Zhao Yun''s martial arts is absolutely extraordinary. According to his humble position, he can only arrange another person to fight for the capture of Zhao Yun. Then, the hostages were exchanged and the young master Yuan Tan was returned. Otherwise, we will be quite passive. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yuan Shao couldn''t help beating on the wall.


    The sound of a dull crash rang out, and Yuan Shao suddenly shrunk his hand. Just now, his fist beat on the wall, and his finger bone was very painful.


    Xu you opened his mouth and said, "Lord, I''m against your humble position."


    Yuan shaodao: "why?"


    Xu you replied: "I have said before that Zhang Xiu is not simple and very cunning. On the surface, Zhang Xiu sent a nobody to fight. But Zhao Yun is obviously not simple. Now send someone to come forward. What if he fails again? "


    "There''s no way. We have to keep fighting."


    Yuan Shao bit his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, do you want me to give up my son?"


    At this moment, Yuan Shao was upset.


    Yuan Shaodong had been fighting in the West for many years, but in front of Zhang Xiu, he not only suffered a lot, but also failed repeatedly.


    Zhang Xiu, just like his nemesis.


    Guo Tu said: "my Lord, the capture of Mr. Tan is related to his safety. He suggested that the generals should immediately challenge Zhao Yun. "


    Under Yuan Shao, Guo TU was on Yuan Tan''s side.


    He supported the establishment of the chief.


    This is Guo Tu''s point of view, so after Yuan Tan was taken, Guo Tu immediately persuaded him.


    "Lord, Chunyu Qiong, please fight."


    Chunyu Qiong asked for a fight again. In the eyes of generals like Chun Yuqiong, Yuan Tan is a noble young man. His martial arts are flowery, showy and not worth mentioning.


    Even in front of him, Yuan Tan was crushed.


    When Yuan Shao heard Chunyu Qiong''s invitation to fight, he looked happy and solemnly said, "Chunyu Qiong, Tan er''s life depends on your hand. As long as you capture Zhao Yun, we can exchange for Tan er. This time, please. "


    Chunyu Qiong said: "don''t worry, Lord. You will win in your humble position."


    As a strong general under Yuan Shao, Chunyu Qiong is also confident. With Yuan Shao''s permission, he immediately went down to the city tower. Soon, he rode out.


    Chunyu Qiong''s weapon is a horse.


    In fact, Ma Shu is similar to gun, but in fact, there are subtle differences. On the one hand, Ma Shu is longer; on the other hand, Ma Shu has a long production cycle and is a very expensive weapon.


    Ordinary people can''t afford such weapons.


    Chunyu Qiong rushes out with Ma Shuo. After he rushes out, without saying a word, he reaches out with Ma Shuo. Chunyu Qiong''s Ma Shu is specially made. It is ten feet long and six feet long.


    When he was two Zhang away from Zhao Yun, Ma Shu had already picked it up and stabbed it out.


    "Whew!"


    Ma Shu''s tip breaks through the air and approaches Zhao Yun.


    Facing the stabbing horse, the white horse under Zhao Yun''s crotch darts forward, avoiding the tip of the horse. At the same time, Zhao Yun''s long gun went up to block Chunyu Qiong''s horse.


    "Boy, die!"Chunyu Qiong''s Ma Shuo turns in the air again and swings up and down.


    However, before Ma Shuo fell, Zhao Yun''s war horse ran forward and once again avoided Chunyu Qiong''s attack. Chunyu Qiong, like a lion tiger, attacks fiercely, intending to kill Zhao Yun.


    But in the twinkling of an eye, after fighting more than ten moves, Zhao Yun instigates his horses to get close to Chunyu qiongla. When the distance between the two sides was less than one Zhang, Chunyu Qiong''s Ma Shu lost its function.


    Zhao Yun in the hands of the gentian bright silver gun, shaking in the air, illusions of a little cold, completely to chunyuqiong''s body to cover.


    As the saying goes, one inch long and one inch strong, Ma Shu long and strong, sharp. However, it is only limited to the farther distance. Once it is approached, it will be in trouble.


    One inch short, one inch dangerous, short and weird, hidden murder, is also very strong.


    Zhao Yun''s long Dan bright silver gun is shorter. After approaching Chunyu Qiong, the twinkling cold light of the long gun has covered Chunyu Qiong. Under such circumstances, Chunyu Qiong frowned.


    He didn''t expect that Zhao Yun could get close so easily. However, Chunyu Qiong did not panic at all. The horse in his left hand is in his hand, and his right hand draws out his sword like lightning.


    The edge of the sword is cut directly.


    "Ding! Ding


    The sharp blade of the sword collided with the silver gun of the Dragon gall, but Chunyu Qiong''s face changed gradually. Because Zhao Yun''s shooting technique is extremely light and changeable. With a shot coming out, the head of the gun appears and disappears. He can''t cut off Zhao Yun''s attack at all.


    This situation makes Chunyu Qiong more and more frightened.


    "No!"


    All of a sudden, seeing the point of the gun coming straight to his left shoulder, Chunyu Qiong quickly raised her sword. When he lifted the block on the edge of his sword, he stabbed the tip of the gun on his shoulder, suddenly turned and stabbed directly to his right shoulder.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun poured into chunyuqiong''s shoulder.


    Poof!


    A touch of blood splashed out.


    Chunyu Qiong snorted, but said nothing. He swung his sword and cut it off.


    Zhao Yun draws back his long gun and raises it to block Chunyu Qiong''s sword. In his hand, the silver gun of gentian comes out again. One shot comes out and haunts him. Only the sound of Puchi comes out. The silver gun of gentian keeps hanging on Chunyu Qiong.


    In a short period of time, Chunyu Qiong has been injured one after another.


    At this moment, Chunyu Qiong''s face was cold, and her heart was also flustered.


    Chunyu Qiong is worried. She doesn''t love fighting any more. She cuts her sword and prepares to retreat. Only when he left, Zhao Yun''s Dragon gall bright silver gun had been stabbed again.


    This shot is as fast as lightning.


    This shot is as powerful as a bolt.


    When a gun hit the sword, the point of the gun was so fierce that it opened the blade directly.


    The tip of the gun, no move.


    It''s as fast as lightning, leaving only a little cold in the air. Chunyuqiong is aware of the danger in her heart. Knowing that the danger has reached the extreme, she immediately wants to avoid it, but she is still a step slow.


    "Poof!"


    The tip of the gun penetrated Chunyu Qiong''s heart.


    With one shot, he stabbed Chunyu Qiong. As the gentian silver gun was drawn out, blood splashed out like a spring.


    "I..."


    Chunyu Qiong''s mouth, just spit out a word, the body will crash to the ground.


    Chunyuqiong, die!

 Chapter 532

    "Yuan Shao, how dare you fight?"


    Zhao Yun in the hands of the gentian bright silver gun, pointing to the city upstairs, shouting again. The thick and resonant voice clearly came into everyone''s ears on the city floor.


    Yuan Shao''s face is even more iron green.


    Chunyuqiong is a strong general under his command. He has great strength and excellent martial arts. But now chunyuqiong is dead. In the case of Yuan Tan being captured, chunyuqiong''s death has cast a shadow on Yuan''s soldiers once again.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao''s heart was even more panicked.


    First, Yuan Tan was captured alive.


    Later, chunyuqiong was killed.


    This has a great impact on the morale of the army.


    Yuan Shao looks at Xu you beside him. Suddenly, he feels that Xu you is right. Zhang Xiu''s cunning can''t be ignored. At the beginning, Yuan Shao, Ju Shu and even others thought that Zhang Xiu had only sent a nobody, but now they find that this is not the case.


    It''s a tiger coming down the mountain.


    At this time, the soldiers looked at Yuan Shangshi and their looks changed.


    There is no more previous disdain.


    Yuan Shang was complacent and complacent, and said, "I said, Zhao Yun is not an ordinary person. As soon as I met him, I realized something was wrong, so I pulled back. My father, my brother didn''t listen to me, so much so. Under the present circumstances, we should not send any more people to fight. "


    He intended to persuade Yuan Shao to give up.


    It is also abandoning Yuan Tan.


    Yuan Tan was his eldest son. Because of his birth, many people under Yuan Shao supported him. But once Yuan Tan is abandoned, those who support him will turn to support him.


    As for the second elder brother Yuan Xi, it''s not worth mentioning.


    It''s a waste.


    Yuan shaoleng, for a moment, did not know what decision to make. But his heart, but not reconciled, asked: "Zhao Yun so rampant, er, who dares to fight?"


    Silence on the tower!


    No one dares to speak.


    No one dares to do it.


    Even people like Chunyu Qiong are defeated by Zhao Yun. Now, they go to fight. That''s death. Knowing that you want to die, but you have to rush forward, that''s a fool, so no one dares to go up.


    "Yuan Shao, how dare you fight?"


    Zhao Yun''s voice sounded again.


    When Zhao Yun exclaimed, in Zhang Xiu''s army, Zhang Xiu exclaimed that Zhao Wudi was invincible.


    The next moment, countless soldiers shout.


    "Zhao Wudi!"


    "Zhao Wudi!"


    Countless soldiers shout, one by one under the command of Zhang Xiu, all excited, extremely excited. In fact, during this period of time, Zhang Xiu could not get out and did not attack Yuan Shao. The soldiers in the army were very idle and had little to do except daily training.


    Now, let it go.


    One by one, soldiers seem to have endless energy, pouring out through shouting.


    Shouts reverberate inside and outside the city.


    Yuan Shao only felt that he was in a state of anxiety and that the battle had been fought too hard.


    Seeing that no one dared to come out, Yuan Shao asked, "what do you think to do, military adviser?"


    "Alas..."


    Professor Ju sighed: "my Lord, I suggest shooting with random arrows to let Zhao Yun retreat. In today''s situation, I''m afraid there is no one in our army who can compete with Zhao Yun. Since Zhao Yun is defeated, we can only choose to defend temporarily. We should give priority to defense and wait until the army with high cadres wins before making plans. "


    "Well, that''s all."


    Yuan Shao''s heart was in a dilemma.


    After he gave the order, the archers came forward one by one, bowing their arrows. Dense bows and arrows poured out from the tower and went straight to Zhao Yun outside the city.


    Zhao Yun didn''t take charge of Chunyu Qiong''s body on the ground. He quickly rode back. He came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "Lord, you can live up to your mission."


    In front of countless soldiers, he was called Lord.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "good job, younger martial brother. This battle has brought out our prestige. In particular, it''s a surprise that you should capture Yuan Shao''s son alive. I didn''t expect that Yuan Shao would dare to send his son to fight. Ha ha ha... "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    It''s really fun.


    This time, he had people who could restrain Yuan Shao.


    When Zhao Yun heard Zhang Xiu''s address, he was helpless. He hoped that Zhang Xiu would call him by his first name, address him by his first name or express his words. But Zhang Xiu''s address made Zhao Yun a little uncomfortable. After all, in front of countless soldiers.


    However, at this time, Zhao Yun convinced countless soldiers through his own strength.


    Zhang Xiu let Zhao Yun into the battle and drove his horse forward slowly.


    At this time, Gan Ning looked at Huang Zhong, lowered his voice and asked, "Lao Huang, master''s younger martial brother, how about his martial arts from your observation?"


    Huang Zhong thought for a moment and replied, "the previous contest didn''t show much. After all, Zhao Yun didn''t go all out and the fighting time was too short. The only thing for sure is that Zhao Yun is better than you and Chen Dao. Maybe, it''s not much different from me. It must be more different. "Now Huang Zhong is very powerful.


    He is at the peak of his martial arts.


    Huang Zhong in history has come to the fore in his old age, but now he is officially the strongest.


    Ganning looked shocked.


    Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun was so strong.


    Gan Ning took a deep breath and sighed: "you are my master''s younger martial brother. My master''s talent in martial arts is a monster. Zhao Yun is young. He has the strength of Lao Huang. He is also a monster. He is worthy of being a brother of the same school. "


    Huang Zhong smiles and doesn''t say much.


    He is Zhang Xiu under the command of the Ministry, Zhang Xiu''s strength is stronger, he is more happy.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu came outside the city, less than 60 steps away from the tower of dangyin county. Zhang Xiu looked up to the city floor and said in a loud voice, "my official, Zhang Xiu, where is Yuan Shao?"


    Yuan Shao bit his teeth and asked, "Zhang Xiu, what do you want to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Shao, your eldest son, Yuan Tan, is in my hands. Don''t you want to save him? In other words, you like the third son yuan Shang and deliberately arranged for Yuan Tan to come out to die. I hope that if I kill him, you can make yuan Shang your successor. Yuan Shao, do you think so? "


    Yuan Shao said, "it''s a mess!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you don''t have such an idea, that''s good. Now, Yuan Tan is in my hands. Yuan Shao, don''t you want to save Yuan Tan? "


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, how do you want to release Tan er?"


    When he inquired about Zhang Xiu, he looked at him and said in a low voice: "military strategist, you look for the marksman, aim at Zhang Xiu carefully and shoot Zhang Xiu for me. As long as Zhang Xiu is dead, then the army under Zhang Xiu''s command is not afraid. This battle, we have enough assurance to win


    Jushi glared and said, "Lord, do you want to plot against Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth to answer.


    Up to now, he has no other way.


    Yuan Shao had a general understanding of Zhang Xiu''s temperament. Zhang Xiu is always very cunning. When he inquires at this time, he must have a different idea.


    Therefore, Yuan Shao wants to kill Zhang Xiu with a cold arrow.

 Chapter 533

    Zhang Xiu outside the city tower, hearing Yuan Shao''s words, her mouth rises. This kind of watching Yuan Shao eat shriveled, the other side takes him helpless thing, is really comfortable in body and mind.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao, if you want to save your eldest son, the conditions are very simple. Now, take all the troops out of the city, hand over the control of the army, and then lead 100 soldiers to withdraw from dangyin county. Don''t worry, I will do what Zhang Xiu says. If they say they will not pursue you, they will not pursue you and let you return to Jizhou. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu, that''s the lion''s big mouth.


    You know, there are more than 50000 elite soldiers in his army. Such an army was the elite of Yuan Shao''s lineage. If it''s all given to Zhang Xiu, it''s equivalent to losing 100000 people in this war.


    This is beyond Yuan Shao''s endurance.


    Yuan Shao is located in Bingzhou, Jizhou and other places, covering a large area with profound strength, but the black sheep of his family did not do so.


    Yuan Shao said: "Zhang Xiu, you deceive people too much."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    But yuan Shaozi said with a smile, "it''s your successor. Is such a person not worth 50000? In other words, Zhang Xiu''s son was arrested, let alone 50000 elite soldiers. Even if there were 100000 people, I would be willing to give up. "


    Yuan Shao was distressed to hear that.


    Zhang Xiu is a typical stand to speak without backache, what is 100000 people are willing to, how can you Zhang Xiu willing to 100000 people. What''s more, Zhang Xiu couldn''t bring out 100000 people.


    Yuan Shao didn''t answer immediately. He looked to the teacher. At this time, he is still looking for someone, but for a while, he has not found a marksman who can make great progress.


    Yuan Shao had to answer: "Zhang Xiu, don''t deceive people too much. I, Yuan Shao, ran across the battlefield. I couldn''t give up countless soldiers for my son''s sake. My son is human. Aren''t all the soldiers in the army human? Yuan Shao treats soldiers equally. "


    That''s very encouraging.


    When the officers and men in the army heard this, they were also warm in their hearts.


    But Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, you are confusing the concept. What is equal treatment. It''s a joke that you treat Yuan Tan the same as soldiers. "


    "You speak as if I were going to kill your soldiers. If you, Yuan Shao, don''t come according to my conditions, then Yuan Tan''s life can''t be saved. "


    "But if you hand over your soldiers, they won''t be in any danger. On the contrary, I want to be nice to them and let them work for me. "


    Zhang Xiu hit back and said, "so your words are just confusing concepts. Yuan Shao, in a word, can you save Yuan Tan? "


    "Father, help me!"


    At this time, Yuan Tan summoned up all his strength to shout.


    Yuan Tan was a hundred steps away from the city. He was detained by soldiers, and his face was full of pain. He and Zhao Yun a fight, not only the weapon was knocked out, Zhao Yun''s gun sweeping, but also broke his ribs.


    So far, his body is still a burst of pain, making him desperate.


    Yuan Tan doesn''t want to die!


    Yuan Tan''s heart, still want to survive.


    So Yuan Tan asked for help.


    Yuan Shao heard his son''s voice, but his face was cold.


    Damn Yuan Tan!


    Why don''t you die.


    If Yuan Tan died, he would not be constrained like this. Now, with Yuan Tan captured, Yuan Shao is unable to save him for a while. With Yuan Tan as a constraint, Yuan Shao may be constrained in any subsequent confrontation.


    "Lord, the archers are in position."


    The voice of the teacher came from the side.


    Yuan Shao nodded, and then he nodded to the archer. These two archers, who are extremely skilled in archery, lie in ambush on the tower. They took bow and arrow and aimed at Zhang Xiu outside the city.


    Now Zhang Xiu is only about 60 steps away from the city tower.


    This distance is within the range of the archer.


    "Whew!"


    Suddenly, the sound of breaking the air suddenly rang out.


    Two archers released the bow and arrow at the same time, two bows, one left and one right, shot at Zhang Xiu at the same time. Just as the bow and arrow shot out, Zhang Xiu heard the sound of breaking the air from the city tower.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand was on the Longquan sword. With a clang sound, the sword came out of its sheath.


    It''s late, it''s fast.


    The bow and arrow came to Zhang Xiu in the twinkling of an eye.


    Zhang Xiu flapped her sword leisurely. She saw the Longquan sword flapping from left to right. The light of the two swords flickered. She only heard two sounds, and the two bows and arrows were shot out.


    Zhang Xiu looked indifferent and said in a loud voice: "Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, they all say that tiger poison doesn''t eat son. Now, you not only don''t save your son, but also secretly shoot me with a cold arrow. It''s really contemptible."


    "Somebody, break Yuan Tan''s leg for me."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.With the order issued, in an instant, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers swung a blunt weapon and beat it down. When the iron bar hit Yuan Tan''s left leg, suddenly, the bone broke.


    Yuan Tan opened his mouth. First, his body twitched in silence. A moment later, he began to howl.


    Endless pain comes from Yuan Tan''s body. Wave after wave of pain, Yuan Tan''s body, are unable to help shaking up, is already in agony.


    At the moment, when Yuan Shao sees his son''s tragedy and Zhang Xiu''s intact, even easily, he pulls out the two bows and arrows. Yuan Shao is also helpless.


    "What''s the matter? I didn''t even shoot!"


    Yuan Shao looked at the two archers, his face full of discontent.


    A shooting failure, next, also want to shoot Zhang Xiu, that is difficult. In the case of Zhang Xiu''s lack of defense, he failed to shoot Zhang Xiu. Now it''s almost impossible to shoot Zhang Xiu.


    The archer looked helpless and replied: "general, it''s not that we didn''t aim, it''s that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are too strong. Our arrows are fast and powerful. But the bow and arrow in front of Zhang Xiu, but did not play a role. Under such circumstances, we have no way. It''s impossible to shoot Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shao''s face showed helplessness.


    Yuan Shao doesn''t want to talk to Zhang Xiu or even see Yuan Tan. He looked at Ju Shi, Xu you and others and said in a deep voice, "what do you say to do under the present situation?"


    Guo Tu said: "Lord, you should not be careless when it comes to the safety of Mr. tan. Mr. Tan is your eldest son. You can''t just give up. "


    "Shut up


    Yuan Shao was angry when he heard Guo Tu''s words.


    You son of a bitch!


    I don''t have any vision.


    Originally, Yuan Shao didn''t like Yuan Tan very much. Yuan Shao''s favorite is his third son, Yuan Shang. Yuan Shao even had the idea of supporting his third son, Yuan Shang, to inherit his foundation. Now Yuan Tan has done this again.


    When Guo Tu heard Yuan Shao''s words, he sighed in his heart and showed a helpless look on his face. He has tried his best, but looking at the present situation, it is difficult to save Yuan Tan.


    Xu you zhengse way: "Lord, humble position is a strategy."


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the plan?"


    Xu you''s eyes twinkled with coldness and said, "under the current situation, it''s impossible to save Mr. tan. If you leave Mr. Tan, the Lord will fall into a difficult choice and even be constrained everywhere. "


    "Now the only way is to shoot and kill Mr. Tan to relieve the future trouble."


    "Now Mr. Tan is only a hundred steps away from us. At this time, let the archer shoot again, one aiming at Zhang Xiu, the other aiming at Mr. tan. "


    "In this way, if Zhang Xiu doesn''t stop her, she can shoot Mr. tan."


    "Although this is a decision that makes the Lord extremely helpless. But for the sake of the overall situation of the whole war, we can only do so. It is said that the two evils are the least. Now the Lord has no choice but to do so. "


    Xu you continued: "of course, there is another choice, that is, the Lord will withdraw and leave dangyin county now, regardless of the war and the life of Mr. tan. Leave the battlefield and avoid the war. "


    When they heard the words, they all changed color.


    There was no persuasion.


    In today''s situation, it''s a dilemma. On the one hand, it is the battle of this war; on the other hand, it is the life of Yuan Tan, which is the most difficult choice.


    It''s up to Yuan Shao to decide for himself.

 Chapter 534

    Yuan Shao Junyi''s face changed again and again.


    Kill Yuan Tan!


    This is the solution.


    But Yuan Tan is his son. Tiger poison doesn''t eat son, let alone human?


    Although Yuan Shao didn''t like his eldest son, Yuan Tan was his son after all. He can ignore Yuan Tan and leave him alone, but now he has to personally order to kill his son, which is even more painful in his heart.


    Yuan Shang''s heart was eager for Yuan Tan to die.


    Yuan Tan died, and his family was the only one.


    If he wants to inherit his family property, it is a matter of stability. Yuan tanzai, Guo Tu and other people who thought that Li Changli was a legitimate leader supported Yuan Tan. Under such a premise, Yuan Shang could not be the only one.


    As soon as Yuan Tan died, Guo Tu and others had to support him.


    Yuan Shang stood up and solemnly said, "father, although Mr. Xu said, he was cold-blooded and even ruthless. But in reality, it''s a matter of no choice. If the father this time to escape, the next time facing Zhang Xiu, how to escape? In other words, the next time my father faces Zhang Xiu, he will face the danger of his brother''s life again. Can there be a solution? There''s no way


    Yuan Shao beat his fists on the tower and scolded Yuan Tan for being a fool.


    But I don''t want to be brave.


    That in today''s situation, he is in a very difficult situation.


    When Zhang Xiu was outside the city, he saw that there was no response from the city floor. Although he could not hear the words from the city floor, he could understand Yuan Shao''s hesitation and said again, "Yuan Shao, my conditions are not difficult. As long as you promise to hand over military power, Yuan Tan does not have to suffer. The contradiction between you and me will be resolved. Why do you insist? "


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers are talking about it.


    Every soldier under Yuan Shao''s command had a frown on his face.


    They all felt sorry for Yuan Shao.


    Everyone can understand Yuan Shao''s dilemma.


    On the one hand, it is Yuan Tan, on the other hand, it is tens of thousands of troops, the palm and the back of the hand are all meat, it is not easy to choose.


    Yuan Shao was hard to choose, but this time, he had no chance to escape. In the past, he could avoid the hard choices, but now, he can''t avoid them.


    Yuan Shaoyi gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I will not accept your threat."


    With that, Yuan Shao looked at the shooter and ordered, "one of you is aiming at Zhang Xiu, the other is aiming at Yuan Tan. Shoot me an arrow and kill Yuan Tan. "


    "Yes


    When the archer gets the order, he should do it immediately.


    After arranging the archers, Yuan Shao pressed his hand on the wall and said again, "Zhang Xiu, I, Yuan Shao, will not change any decision because of you."


    Zhang Xiu said: "cold blooded Yuan Shao


    "Whew!"


    All of a sudden, the sound of breaking the air came again.


    Zhang Xiu looked up, and the Longquan sword in his hand swung up again. With his sword, the blade of the sword hit the shaft of the arrow. In an instant, the bow and arrow flew out.


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu frowned.


    Because he found that there was still a crack, and it was not aimed at him.


    "No, it''s against Yuan Tan."


    Zhang Xiu looked back. When he looked back, he only heard a puff. The sharp arrow had penetrated into Yuan Tan''s heart.


    "Ho ho..."


    Yuan Tan''s mouth is overflowing with blood.


    He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but the rising blood blocked his throat, making him unable to speak. He could only make a sound. Severe pain, from the position of the heart, made him shudder all over.


    Immediately after that, his vision in front of him gradually became blurred.


    Are you going to die?


    Yuan Tan''s heart is full of sorrow.


    In his mind, the scenes of childhood emerge.


    At that time, he was deeply loved by Yuan Shao and was the most eye-catching person in the yuan family. Everyone liked him. Yuan Shao gave him all the delicious and funny things, which can be described as a collection of thousands of favours.


    It was his happiest time.


    Unfortunately, after his mother''s death, Yuan Shao continued his life, and later he had his third younger brother, Yuan Shang.


    After Yuan Shang was born, Yuan Tan''s good days are gone forever. Yuan Shao compares him with Yuan Shang in everything. In Yuan Shao''s eyes, he can''t compare yuan Shang everywhere, and he can''t compete with Yuan Shang in everything.


    Maybe it''s better to die!


    Unfortunately, he died in his own father''s hands.


    Irony!


    Yuan Tan''s heart is full of sorrow.


    As time went by, Yuan Tan''s body twitched and his head dropped as the darkness shrouded him.


    No more breath.


    "Tan ER!"


    On the tower, Yuan Shao saw the scene of Yuan Tan''s head drooping down and roared.


    It''s his son, after all.


    He ordered himself to shoot his son.


    After seeing Yuan Tan killed, Zhang Xiu understood it in her heart. He knew that Yuan Shao killed Yuan Tan in order to cut off his threat. Zhang Xiu also had to admire Yuan Shao. If it was Zhang Xiu, he would never be able to do such a thing. All of a sudden, Zhang Xiu starts to smile at the corner of her mouth and ponders carefully. It''s not a bad thing that Yuan Shao killed Yuan Tan.It can be used.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu burst into laughter.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    His laughter suppressed Yuan Tan''s shrill roar. Zhang xiulang said: "Yuan Shao, you ordered yourself to shoot your son. Now you come to wail at Yuan Tan. What''s this?"


    "Does the cat cry for the mouse?"


    "Who killed Yuan Tan?"


    "It''s you, Yuan Shao!"


    "You have a chance to save Yuan Tan, but you don''t have such a choice. Even if you don''t save Yuan Tan, you can still ignore Yuan Tan. Is it hard for me? Will Zhang Xiu kill Yuan Tan? "


    "Impossible!"


    Zhang xiulang said: "if I kill Yuan Tan, there will be no one to hold you back. So, how can I possibly kill Yuan Tan when I abuse him and break his leg or two? "


    "But you killed Yuan Tan!"


    "Why did you kill Yuan Tan?"


    "The reason is very simple. I don''t want to be constrained by Zhang Xiu. Even if you don''t want to hand over military power or leave, you can withdraw from dangyin county. "


    "As long as you withdraw from dangyin County, Yuan Tan will not die."


    "But you killed Yuan Tan."


    With a look of disdain and disdain, Zhang Xiu said: "for your interests, for that little bit of right, you choose to kill your own son. Tiger poison does not eat son. You are so cold-blooded. "


    "It''s a pity, it''s a pity, Yuan Tan!"


    "Do you know what Yuan Tan said at last when he died?"


    "He said that I hate him. I hate that I''m not yuan Shang."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "well, what Yuan Tan said is quite correct. If yuan Shang becomes a prisoner, let alone ask you to surrender your military power and withdraw from dangyin County, I''m afraid you will agree to cede your land. "


    Yuan Shao was speechless.


    At any rate, let Zhang Xiu a person said, how he is wrong.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Yuan Shao, in order to pave the way for your third son, you are so cruel to kill Yuan Tan. I admire you. You are worthy of the rank of general Yuan Shao. "


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would come here.


    He killed Yuan Tan, Zhang Xiu export slander, making him unable to defend himself. Previously, Zhang Xiu coerced him to hand over more than 50000 troops, but now, Zhang Xiu says that he can retreat and that he will not kill Yuan Tan.


    Zhang Xiu is too cunning.


    Originally, Yuan Shao killed his son, so he was depressed in his heart. Now, he was criticized by Zhang Xiu again. His chest was undulating, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable.


    He has a surge of Qi and blood and a sweet throat.


    "Poof!"


    A mouthful of blood sprayed from Yuan Shao''s mouth. He leaned his hands on the wall, his face turned pale, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao was very lonely.

 Chapter 535

    "Look at your heart


    Seeing that Yuan Shao vomited blood, Zhang Xiu continued with a smile on her lips: "the ultimate retribution for killing her son also falls on you, Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, you are so cold-blooded. I admire you. Only a cold-blooded person like you can stand in troubled times and not be bullied. "


    Yuan Shao hoarse voice, said: "Zhang Xiu, I must kill you. If you don''t get cramped, Yuan Shao will never stop. I, Yuan Shao, swear to heaven that I will not be a human being if I do not kill you, Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Xiu tut said: "it''s so scary. It''s really scary!"


    However, Yuan Shang stepped forward and stroked Yuan Shao''s back with his light hand. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said sharply, "Zhang Xiu, I tell you, you must be defeated in the end. I, Yuan Shang, will certainly avenge my elder brother. "


    "Big brother?"


    Zhang Xiu said sarcastically: "I''m afraid it''s you, Yuan Shang, who are most happy at the moment. If you kill Yuan Tan, you will have no more opponents and no one to fight with. This is your chance. "


    "You don''t hurt your waist when you stand and speak sarcastically. It''s easy for anyone to say that. "


    "Oh, what a pity!"


    "It''s a pity that Yuan Tan, as the eldest son of the general''s military mansion, made a wedding dress for people with everything he had."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but when it comes to revenge, neither Yuan Shao nor you, Yuan Shang, have a chance of revenge. Because this time, you will lose in dangyin county. "


    "I have a piece of news here."


    "Interesting news."


    "Yuan Shang, do you want to know?"


    Zhang Xiu put forward the words, with a faint smile on her face, looking forward to it.


    Yuan Shang said, "what''s the news?"


    As soon as Xu you heard this, he immediately said, "you shouldn''t say that, Mr. three. The reason why Zhang Xiu asks is that she is waiting for you to ask. If you ask now, Zhang Xiu will certainly attack you. "


    On hearing this, Yuan Shang''s cheek twitched.


    He sensed it.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth is so sharp that her father spits blood.


    But now that it''s over, he has no choice.


    It''s all said.


    Zhang xiulang said: "Gongsun Zan of the north is no longer imprisoned in Yijing. Today, Gongsun Zan is fighting against Jizhou. How about, surprise or not? "


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t intend to hide the news of Gongsun Zan.


    Because once Gongsun Zan sent troops to attack Jizhou, the news would soon spread to Yuan Shao.


    It can''t be concealed.


    So Zhang Xiu said it on this occasion to further attack the morale of Yuan Jun''s soldiers.


    Morale is crucial in the military.


    The morale of the soldiers in the army is good and the morale of the soldiers in the army is strong. Even if the troops are small and the equipment is poor, there is a chance to turn the situation around and turn defeat into victory. On the other hand, the morale of the soldiers in the army is low and they don''t have the heart to fight. Even if there are hundreds of thousands of troops, they can''t hold on because they have no fighting capacity.


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again, and he turned black.


    Gongsun Zan sent troops.


    That''s not good news.


    Although Yuan Shao was at war with Gongsun Zan, he had an overall advantage. But in fact, Yuan Shao was also quite afraid of Gongsun Zan, because Gongsun Zan''s soldiers were really elite.


    It''s not easy to deal with.


    Unexpectedly, Gongsun Zan sent troops.


    Yuan Shao didn''t have to think about it. He knew that Zhang Xiu was the reason why Gongsun Zan sent troops. Now Yuan Shao''s main troops are gathered in dangyin county. He can only hope that the troops attacking Gongsun Zan can win.


    Otherwise, the situation will be very unfavorable.


    Yuan Shang''s face also changed greatly.


    I didn''t expect to ask myself such a big question.


    The soldiers on the tower all changed color one after another.


    All the soldiers, nervous.


    Yuan Shang wanted to speak, but he was stopped by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao thought about it in his heart and thought about it for a while. He immediately said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, do you really think that only you can have a back hand, and I don''t have a back hand?"


    "What backhand?"


    Zhang Xiu asked directly.


    He didn''t worry about Yuan Shao''s means. Because Zhang Xiu''s strength is strong, it has occupied an absolute advantage. What''s more, Zhang Xiu was not used by the Heishan army.


    The Heishan army led by Zhang Yan is also Zhang Xiu''s trump card.


    Yuan Shao said: "in Bingzhou, I ordered the governor Gao Gan of Bingzhou to enter Hedong county from Bingzhou. Zhang Xiu, an army of high cadres, will kill Ben Chang''an when he enters Hedong. You can''t hold your back


    On the tower, Yuan Jun''s soldiers were excited.


    They still have a back hand.


    One by one, at this time, there was a glimmer of hope in my heart.


    I think there is hope for this war.


    Yuan Shao''s face regained pride again. He believed that the news was enough to suppress Zhang Xiu.Professor Ju said: "Lord, it''s a very secret thing for senior cadres to send troops. This is our surprise. If you tell the news now, it means that there is no wonder, and Zhang Xiu may also make a response. "


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "I have considered the problems you mentioned, but now we have no choice. Zhang Xiu keeps beating our morale. If we don''t use our mace, we can''t recover the situation. "


    Xu you echoed: "my Lord is wise!"


    Yuan Shao continued: "if Gao Gan alone wins, we are defeated like a mountain, and Gao Gan can''t win decisively. So I tell you the news. There''s no way. We can only do this. "


    "Alas..."


    When he heard the words, he sighed.


    He acknowledged that Yuan Shao''s words were reasonable.


    After hearing Yuan Shao''s words, Zhang Xiu looked as usual and said, "Yuan Shao, do you think it will work to dispatch senior cadres to attack Hanoi Prefecture from Bingzhou? Wrong, you are so wrong


    Yuan Shao said: "high cadres will win. You can only pretend to be calm."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Yuan Shao, don''t you find that among the generals around me, there are fewer people you are most familiar with?"


    Yuan shaodao: "who?"


    "Open jaw!"


    Zhang Xiu held her head high and threw her voice on the ground: "it''s well known that Zhang jaw is obedient to the official. Zhang''s strength is obvious to all. He is especially good at defense


    "When I sent out troops, I specially arranged for Zhang Yan to take charge of Chang''an and coordinate with all parties."


    "When Hedong county is attacked by senior cadres, Zhang Ya will send troops to help. It''s as easy as a palm to block high-ranking cadres with the strength of jaw opening. "


    "The most important thing is that in addition to Zhang''s jaw, Tian Feng is also in the rear."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Tian Feng is also in Chang''an after he surrendered to his official position. There are Tian Feng and Zhang jazai. They understand the character and strength of high-ranking cadres. It is not important to deal with them. Your strength in Bingzhou is not enough for fear. "


    Yuan Shao smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    His original intention is to suppress Zhang Xiu''s arrogance and boost the morale of his soldiers.


    Now, he was beaten by Zhang Xiu.


    The most important thing is that his soldiers are talking again. The mood of these soldiers, like riding a roller coaster, ups and downs, one by one experiencing high and low emotions, is really uncomfortable.


    They are worried about Yuan Shao''s situation.


    They are worried about their own life and death.


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth at the moment and said: "Zhang Yan, Tian Feng, defeated generals, how can they be brave? When they face high-ranking cadres, they have no face to face them. There is no doubt that they will be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s true that good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters. You, Yuan Shao, have no way. It''s very normal for them to abandon the dark and turn to the light. The so-called defeated general is a fallacy. Yuan Shao, you are making a fuss. You said they were incompetent, but once you relied on Tian Feng and Zhang Yan most. Now it''s not self contradictory to deny them


    Yuan Shao was dumb again.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Yuan Shao''s mouth is not enough.


    He can''t win Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 536

    There was a dignified look on his elegant cheek. He himself is also eloquent, but at the moment he saw Zhang Xiu''s mouth, which is also a little silent.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu''s sophistication, which makes people''s air defense careless. You say Zhang Xiu is nonsense, but there is some truth in her words. You say he talks according to the facts, but there are sophistry and words in Zhang Xiu''s words, which is a headache.


    This is a very powerful person.


    Professor Ju sighed: "my Lord, I can''t talk to Zhang Xiu any more. You continue to talk with Zhang Xiu. In the end, I''m afraid the soldiers in the army will be in chaos. Zhang Xiu''s words need not be taken seriously. Now, we are going to stay in dangyin county with all our strength and wait for the news of senior cadres. "


    "Lord, I agree with you


    Gao Lan goes up and opens his mouth.


    He always stood by, not saying a word, this time can not help but remind. In fact, the dialogue between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu is always losing. If we continue to fight, the morale of the army will be more turbulent.


    Others, one after another, persuade.


    They all think that Yuan Shao is not as good as Zhang Xiu.


    The expression on Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again, and his face became extremely angry.


    Because no one believed him.


    But in fact, he did not rival Zhang Xiu, can only be shouting: "Zhang Xiu children, less nonsense, have the courage, you just attack."


    Zhang Xiu knows yuan shaoxun.


    Today''s war cannot be fought. However, today''s achievements are also very rich. Originally, Zhang Xiu''s intention was just to let Zhao Yun fight to establish Zhao Yun''s reputation. Unexpectedly, she captured Yuan Tan and hurt Yuan Shao again.


    For Zhang Xiu, this has been a surprise.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "withdraw the troops!"


    After Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun returned to the army, the army retreated and did not attack the county seat of dangyin county. When the army returned to the camp, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and said, "send someone to inform Zhang Ya immediately and let him send troops to the north to protect the safety of Hedong county."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue turned and stepped down.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, she was thinking. Zhang Xiu is not worried about the safety of Chang''an.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged for Zhang''s affairs, she sent people to call Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao, publicly announced Zhao Yun''s appointment, and ordered Zhao Yun to reorganize Baima Yicong.


    Huang Zhong and others have no opinions on this.


    Because Zhao Yun''s martial arts are strong enough!


    This is the premise.


    Moreover, as soon as Zhao Yun surrendered to Zhang Xiu, he captured Yuan Tan alive and made great achievements. No one could pick out the thorn.


    What''s more, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu are still brothers.


    After the arrangement of Zhao Yun''s Bai Ma Yi, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Sima Yi and said, "Zhong Da, you should send a letter to Pang Tong and ask him to mobilize the black mountain army to attack Ye City, Yuan Shao''s headquarters, as soon as possible. Gongsun Zan went south, we restrained Yuan Shao, plus the black mountain army, Yuan Shao will be defeated this time, "


    " here


    Sima Yi immediately went to arrange it.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged all the things properly, she let everyone busy.


    Dangyin County, in the city.


    Yuan Shao sent people to bring back the body of his son Yuan Tan. Instead of sending him back to Yecheng for burial, he chose a site to bury him in the city. For the death of Yuan Tan, Yuan Shao was deeply distressed, but yuan Shang was very happy.


    However, yuan has not yet revealed.


    Yuan Shang is not a fool. He knows what to do and what not to do. Yuan Shao was in front of Yuan Shao, accompanying him and comforting him, so as to make him comfortable.


    Such yuan Shang was praised by Yuan Shao.


    After Yuan Tan died, there was yuan Shang.


    He has a son.


    After yuan Shao''an buried Yuan Tan, he called together Ju Shou, Gao Lan and Xu you again. He looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice: "about Zhang Xiu, today, he mentioned Gongsun Zan''s sending troops. Do you think it''s true or false?"


    "It''s true."


    He answered directly and said, "this kind of thing can''t be fake. Because as long as you make a little inquiry, you can get information. I think that Zhang Xiu can''t cheat. "


    Xu you said, "I agree with you in your humble position."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, soldiers entered outside the camp.


    After standing still, the soldiers saluted with folded fists and reported: "general Lu Yang sent back the news, Gongsun Zan launched a large-scale counterattack. He''s fighting against it. Please rest assured that he will block Gongsun Zan. "


    LV Yang is a valiant general under Yuan Shao.


    Originally, it was extremely easy to attack Gongsun Zan, so Yuan Shao transferred Gao Lan and other heavy generals back and sent LV yang to the north to urge the soldiers to attack Gongsun Zan.


    Yuan Shao waved the soldiers back, looked at the crowd and said, "it seems that Gongsun Zan really picked up his spirits and began to go south. But can Lu Yang alone resist Gongsun Zan''s army? If LV Yang is defeated, it may affect the security of Jizhou. Although Gongsun Zan has been abandoned these years, his combat effectiveness can not be too strong, but he is not too weak. "Guo Tu suggested: "Lord, I suggest that Sui Yuanjin and Zhao Rui should be transferred."


    Sui Yuanjin and Zhao Rui were powerful generals under Yuan Shao.


    These people are staying in Yecheng.


    Although Yuan Shao sent troops from Yecheng and sent 100000 troops to the south, in fact, Yuan Shao still had troops stationed in the rear.


    This is to coordinate the four sides.


    When there is no trouble, there is no military support.


    Yuan Shao nodded and said: "under the current situation, we really need to send people to help. Sui Yuanjin and Zhao Rui are all powerful generals on the battlefield. He immediately sent an order to two people, asking Sui Yuanjin and Zhao Rui to lead 10000 soldiers to the north to help LV Yang garrison the north of Jizhou and resist Gongsun Zan who went south. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Tu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Yuan Shao arranged things in the north and talked about Gao Gan''s affairs. He said in a deep voice: "up to now, there is no news about Gao Gan. Then send an order to Gao Gan to speed up his troops and seize Hedong as soon as possible. Hedong and Chang''an are very close. As long as we win Hedong, it''s easy to seize Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    I''ll give it to you.


    Yuan Shao arranged all the things properly before he asked the people to step down.


    Yuan Shao was sitting alone in the tent with a slightly dignified look on his face. Deep in the eyes, there is a hint of regret.


    He regretted attacking Zhang Xiu.


    This attack on Zhang Xiu damaged tens of thousands of troops, and killed such powerful generals as Qu Yi and Chun Yu Qiong. In addition, even his son Yuan Tan died in the war.


    The loss is too great.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s loss is minimal.


    In order to attack Zhang Xiu, he paid too much. If we don''t attack Zhang Xiu, he will lose nothing.


    So, he regretted it.


    But now the sword has come out of its sheath and there is no room to retreat. If Yuan Shao leads his troops to retreat at this time, then he wants to fight Zhang Xiu again. Who dares to fight Zhang Xiu?


    This is the most difficult.


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shao sighed. On his well maintained face, there were a few more wrinkles. Once he, nothing to worry about. But now he is exhausted.


    All this is caused by Zhang Xiu.


    And Zhang Xiu''s fight, yuan shaotai too painstaking.


    Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan''s fighting, although Yuan Shao had suffered defeat, but also had been in trouble. But generally speaking, Yuan Shao still had the upper hand, especially in the end, Yuan Shao was more and more obedient, on the contrary, Gongsun Zan was more and more serious.


    He felt that he was Gongsun Zan in the past.


    In this war, the roles were exchanged.


    Zhang Xiu became what he used to be, and he became Gongsun Zan.


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shao sighed again, his legs gradually folded up, his hands around his legs and curled up. On the face of that handsome Yi, reveal the frailty that cannot hide and helpless.


    Only when Yuan Shao is alone can he show such emotion. Because in front of all the people under his command, he can be angry, he can be irritable, and he must not show such emotion.

 Chapter 537

    Heishan, Shanzhai hall.


    Today''s Black Mountain army has been completely controlled by Zhang Yan. Those who disobey Zhang Yan''s orders are all executed. Especially after a rebellion, Zhang Yan no longer used the mode of leading each other''s troops and took over all the people''s troops.


    He is in charge of the whole situation.


    In particular, after Pang Tong entered Heishan, although Pang Tong was young, he helped Zhang Yan to carry out drastic reform of the army, eliminated many old and weak, and recruited soldiers again.


    In addition, Pang Tong also straightened out the rules and customs of the army, which made the Montenegrin army quickly break away from the previous situation and become more strict.


    Under Pang Tong''s treatment, no one was unconvinced, because Pang Tong''s treatment was justified.


    Zhang Yan also admired Pang Tong.


    Even Ren Qiong, in front of Pang Tong, was willing to bow down.


    In the hall.


    Zhang Yan, Pang Tong and Ren Qiong took their seats respectively.


    Zhang Yan looked at Pang Tong and asked, "Pang Shangshu, now that we have finished reorganizing the army, when will we attack?"


    When Pang Tong climbed the mountain, he straightened up the army.


    In order to form combat effectiveness.


    Now, the army has already been reorganized, and Zhang Yan''s heart can''t help but go to war.


    He wants to make contributions!


    He wants to build merit.


    With a faint smile on his face, Pang Tong said: "according to the news from the foot of the mountain, the Lord killed tens of thousands of Yuan Shao''s troops, which made Yuan Shao trapped in the county seat of dangyin county. Yuan Shao''s entry into the city was tantamount to self imprisonment. When he lost his dexterity, there was a trail to follow in the transportation of grain. We can look for their food and destroy each other''s grain transport team. "


    Zhang Yan said: "however, the Lord and Yuan Shao have been deadlocked for such a long time, but there is no food delivery team. We have to wait, we have to wait until the year of the monkey? "


    As a general, Zhang Yan wants to send troops.


    He didn''t want to be trapped in the black mountain all the time, because the black mountain army he led was also an army of Zhang Xiu.


    Pang Tong said: "General Zhang, patience is also a crucial thing. The more anxious you are, the more you have to wait, because the opportunity may come. "


    "We just have to wait until Yuan Shao''s food convoy attacked each other. On the one hand, we sent a letter to the Lord to let him know. On the other hand, we can send troops to the north to attack Yecheng directly. "


    At this point, Pang Tong flashed a light in his eyes and said: "at that time, not only attack Yuan Shao''s rear, but also make Yuan Shao in trouble. This is the best way. So I wait patiently. "


    But Zhang Yan sighed.


    He was tired of waiting.


    Ren Qiong advised: "Lord, in my opinion, Pang Shangshu''s suggestion is excellent. On the battlefield, the competition is not only about martial arts, but also about courage and patience. "


    For Pang Tong, Ren Qiong admired him very much.


    It is reasonable to say that Pang Tong is less than 20 years old, so young people should be quite impulsive. In Pang Tong''s case, however, the impulse did not exist. He was not proud of his merits, nor was he proud of his talents, which made Ren Qiong admire him very much.


    In fact, this is Pang Tong today.


    Pang Tong, who was once a powerful man, was extremely aggressive. But after Pang Tong followed Zhang Xiu, he met Jia Xu, Li Ru, Tian Feng, Xu Shu and others, and gradually changed under the influence of the public.


    That''s why we have today.


    Zhang Yan said, "just wait."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a sentinel quickly entered and said: "general, Taiwei has orders to deliver."


    Zhang Yan took it and quickly looked at it.


    After reading it, he showed a happy look on his face and handed it to Pang Tong directly, saying: "Pang Shangshu, the Lord ordered us to attack Ye City. Now, my Lord, he killed Yuan Tan, the eldest son of Yuan Shao. How powerful! In particular, Gongsun Zan had already sent troops to the south to attack Jizhou of Yuan Shao. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Pang Tong said three good words one after another, but in his eyes, there was a touch of sadness.


    The reason is very simple. Yang Xiu went north to persuade Gongsun Zan to succeed. Now Gongsun Zan sent troops to attack Yuan Shao, proving that Yang Xiu had succeeded. On the contrary, he arrived in Montenegrin, actively planning, but now he has not done anything.


    It''s just the consolidation of the army.


    The rest, nothing else.


    Especially now, Zhang Xiu has personally ordered them to attack Yecheng. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu can''t wait.


    This is the reason why Pang Tong is gloomy.


    Pang Tong took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and said: "in that case, let''s send troops. This time, we went straight to Yecheng and made a big move to make it easier for the Lord to take Yuan Shao and even more to make Yuan Shao''s army panic. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Yan happily replied,


    he couldn''t help it for a long time, and already wanted to send troops.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, another sentry rushed in.


    After the sentry station was established, he knelt down on one knee and reported: "general, we have found the news of Yuan Shao''s grain team."With that, the sentry handed the letter.


    After Zhang Yan took it over, she quickly browsed it and had a smile on her face. He handed the news to Pang Tong again and said, "Pang Shangshu, Yuan Shao''s grain transportation team has really come."


    "Yuan Shao is 25 miles away from Heishan. According to the information we found, the grain transported this time is as much as 200000 stones. There are 6000 elite soldiers escorted by the army alone. "


    "Obviously, the other side is well prepared."


    "But for us, it''s an opportunity," Zhang said


    Pang Tong looked at the letter with a gloomy look on his face and a happy look on his face.


    Here''s the chance!


    He has been planning to ambush each other''s grain brigade.


    Just for today.


    The troops escorting the grain just need to defeat each other, and then escort the grain to Zhang Xiu''s camp, so in this battle, he can concentrate on attacking Yecheng.


    Opportunity!


    This is an opportunity!


    Pang Tong was very happy.


    Pang Tong stood up and said, "General Zhang, the time is ripe. Immediately mobilize the army, and we''ll attack this food convoy first. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Yan answered directly.


    Zhang Yan went to mobilize the army, Pang Tong accompanied him, while Ren Qiong stayed in the mountains, responsible for maintaining the order in the mountains and ensuring that there was no turbulence in the mountains.


    Two quarters of an hour later, Zhang Yan mobilized the army, and then came out of the mountain.


    Zhang Yan mobilized 30000 elite soldiers.


    This is almost all Zhang Yan''s troops.


    In fact, earlier on, the number of Zhang Yan''s troops, if some ordinary soldiers were included, was more. However, the combat effectiveness of the army is not very strong. Under Pang Tong''s drastic reform, all the old and weak in the army were eliminated, and the soldiers were recruited again, so there are now 30000 elite soldiers.


    This is Zhang Yan''s strongest fighting capacity.


    The army is on its way. When the army comes to the two sides of the official road, they lie in ambush and wait quietly.


    Now, we just need to wait for Yuan Shao''s grain team to arrive.


    Time goes by little.


    Towards Shenshi in the afternoon, at this time, although the sun is across the sky, it shines on people, but it is warm, not the slightest hot.


    "Rustle!"


    The sound of footsteps, suddenly sounded.


    A sentinel quickly came to Zhang Yan''s side and reported: "general, Yuan Shao''s grain team is here. It''s less than five miles from us. "


    Zhang Yan said, "go down and wait for my order. It is absolutely not allowed to make moves without authorization. In this war, we must win a beautiful one. We must be beautiful and promise this war. "


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to turn back.


    Pang Tong''s face was also slightly nervous. Although Pang Tong''s heart is full of confidence that he can win, in fact, this war is related to all his plans, so Pang Tong is very nervous.


    He has to win!


    To prove yourself.

 Chapter 538

    As time goes by, the food delivery team is getting closer and closer. When the distance between the two sides is less than 100 steps, you can clearly see the people coming from a distance.


    At the front, the soldiers escorting the grain brigade.


    These soldiers, one by one dressed in armour and equipped with complete weapons, were the elite under Yuan Shao''s command.


    Slowly, this batch of soldiers in the front of the carriage is loaded with food. On both sides of the grain truck were soldiers escorted.


    The team is long and winding. If you look down from a high altitude, it looks like a long snake.


    Time is not long, the front of the soldiers, has passed Zhang Yan ambush position. However, Zhang Yan still has not ordered to send troops, because it is not time to send troops.


    This ambush, Zhang Yan''s army, divided into ten teams.


    There are 3000 people in each team.


    The whole team is on the official road.


    As long as Zhang Yan orders the attack and the ten soldiers are killed, it will be enough to completely cut off the winding grain team, and then attack in batches to defeat the grain delivery team.


    This is Zhang Yan''s consideration.


    As time went by, nearly a quarter of an hour later, when Zhang Yan saw that the grain team had gone, he ordered: "blow the trumpet, attack!"


    "Woo! Woo


    All of a sudden, the sound of the horn resounds on the official road.


    This vast ground, suddenly sounded the horn, broke the silence.


    "Kill


    Zhang Yan has been the first to kill.


    He also had three thousand elite soldiers around him. With three thousand soldiers, he quickly entered the official road and killed yuan Jun soldiers who escorted food.


    "Kill! Kill


    Shouts came one after another.


    From the front of the grain to the end of the grain troop, Zhang Yan''s Black Mountain Army soldiers were killed. Although the 6000 yuan Army soldiers escorting the grain were elite soldiers, their strength weakened after they were scattered along the way. Zhang Yan''s army killed them and easily defeated the troops escorting the grain.


    The war between the two sides was a one-sided slaughter.


    Yuan Jun''s soldiers were totally unable to stop the attack of the black mountain army.


    It was only a quarter of an hour before the war ended. Besides the yuan soldiers who went out and died on the battlefield, there were as many as 2000 yuan soldiers captured.


    All grain, not a few grains, will be collected.


    After the war, Zhang Yan looked at Pang Tong with admiration and said: "Pang Shangshu''s clever plan is admired by Zhang Yan. In this case, we defeated 6000 yuan troops, captured 2000 yuan soldiers, and captured 200000 stone grains, which is a great harvest. If the news reaches Yuan Shao''s ears, I''m afraid Yuan Shao will be very angry. "


    Pang Tong said: "General Zhang was so praiseworthy. Next, general Zhang sent a general to lead 3000 black mountain troops to escort prisoners and grain to Yinxian county."


    "This news has not yet spread to dangyin County, and Yuan Shao is not on guard. We have been on our way all night to send the prisoners and grain back. Now, we are going to attack Yuan Shao''s rear area


    "But when we attack Yuan Shao''s rear, we have to make corresponding arrangements."


    Pang Tong said: "on the one hand, it''s attacking Yecheng. On the other hand, Yuan Shao and his Lord were defeated and retreated. Once he returned to Yecheng, it was also an opportunity for us to deal with Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Yan said: "what Pang Shangshu said is true, we will follow Pang Shangshu''s arrangement."


    Pang Tong nodded.


    His eyes were full of expectations.


    Zhang Yan quickly arranged to go on. This time, he did not arrange for the general to unify the troops, but specially asked Ren Qiong to escort the grain back. In this way, Zhang Yan can rest assured.


    Otherwise, Zhang Yan is not at ease.


    After all, it''s 200000 stone grain.


    After everything was arranged, Zhang Yan led the army and went on the road quickly.


    While Zhang Yan was on his way, Ren Qiong had been on his way all night. At midnight the next morning, he had arrived in dangyin county and outside Zhang Xiu''s barracks.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that there were trucks of grain delivered, she also went out of the camp.


    He had some doubts.


    I don''t know how the food came from.


    After all, Pang Tong didn''t elaborate on his plan when he went to Heishan.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that Pang Tong and Zhang Yan had defeated Yuan Shao''s grain transportation team, captured two thousand and two hundred thousand stone grains, she was very surprised.


    Well done!


    200000 stone grain!


    That''s not a small number.


    When Ren Qiongdao understood the captives and the grain he had captured, he said again, "Zhang Taiwei, when Pang Shangshu left, he left a letter for Zhang Taiwei to read."


    With that, Ren Qiong handed the letter.


    Zhang Xiu took it over and quickly browsed it over. A smile rose from the corner of her mouth.


    Pang Tong has a plan for the next arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu should cooperate with Pang Tong.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind, however, became active, and he soon began to worry about it. He did not delay. He asked the soldiers to transport the grain to the camp, and then ordered Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and Chen Dao to lead the soldiers to the battle.Zhang Xiu with the army, as well as two thousand prisoners, mighty, straight to the county.


    He will work hard to defeat Yuan Shao.


    The time is ripe.


    Gongsun Zan first attacked the rear of Yuan Shao, and then Yuan Tan was killed. Now Yuan Shao''s grain road has collapsed, and Yecheng is in danger again. One by one, these things are enough to destroy the morale of Yuan''s army.


    Enough to make yuan Jun turbulent.


    This is the best opportunity to attack Yuan Shao.


    Break the city defense of dangyin County, and then fight into the city to defeat Yuan Shao.


    On the way, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others knew that Pang Tong had won and that Pang Tong and Zhang Yan had gone to Yecheng.


    All agreed to attack Yuan Shao.


    Today, Yuan Shao seems to be strong and able to defend dangyin county. In fact, his strength is limited.


    On the contrary, Zhang Xiu''s strength is stronger and stronger.


    When the army came outside the city, they were arrayed in a fierce manner.


    Zhang Xiu galloped forward and said again, "where is Yuan Shao, my official Zhang Xiu?"


    Yuan Shao said: "Zhang Xiuer, my official is at the head of dangyin county. If you have the ability, you will wave the army to kill. I''m on this tower, waiting for your attack. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, don''t worry, I don''t need you to talk this time, I will attack. Yuan Shao, don''t you find that there is something missing in your army? "


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s missing?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t you know what you lack is military provisions. From time to time, you have been waiting for the grain from the south of Yecheng, but you stare for a long time, and you don''t see any trace. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face has changed greatly. What''s the matter? Is it Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "but before the siege, I have a batch of gifts here to let you know."


    "Come on, bring people up."


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the soldiers escorted two thousand prisoners forward.


    It''s a food convoy.


    Zhang xiupai pointed to these people and said, "how, does general yuan know them?"


    Yuan Shao looked at it, but he had no impression, because he didn''t know any of the soldiers in front of him.


    Is this his soldier?


    However, his soldiers became prisoners.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Oh, it seems that there are many noble people in general yuan''s army. You can''t remember them. Well, I''ll tell you, these two thousand people are the captives of escorting food. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    Lost the grain!


    At this moment, Yuan Shao''s heart sank to the bottom.

 Chapter 539

    Yuan Shao clearly remembers that according to the calculation of time, his first batch of grain should be sent to dangyin county at about this time. You know, the soldiers under his command escorted food were as many as 6000.


    With these 6000 people, it is not easy for Zhang Xiu to defeat the grain transportation team.


    Especially during this period of time, Yuan Shao had been arranging people to stare at Zhang Xiu''s camp. He didn''t find out that Zhang Xiu had transferred troops to leave. On the premise that Zhang Xiu didn''t transfer troops to leave, how did he defeat the soldiers escorting food? How did you get the grain back?


    All kinds of circumstances made Yuan Shao confused.


    Yuan Shao''s face was dignified and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, how can you capture my soldiers without sending them out of the camp?"


    "Why not?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "my army, Zhang Xiu, is haunted. It''s easy to defeat your little grain transportation team. Of course, with your brain, I can''t imagine how I won


    Yuan Shao racked his brains and really didn''t understand.


    He couldn''t figure it out.


    Jushou stood aside, looking at the captured people outside the city, and suddenly said: "the black mountain army!"


    "Black Mountain army!"


    At the same time, Xu you and other counselors also spoke at the same time.


    Everyone thought of the Montenegrin army.


    When Yuan Shao heard what people around him said, he said, "Zhang Yan, the army of Heishan, has been stationed in Heishan and does not yield to anyone. How can this army serve Zhang Xiu? "


    "Master," he said, "count it out. What we didn''t count is the black mountain army. Although this is our guess, my Lord, if you try Zhang Xiu, you will know. "


    Yuan Shao nodded, then looked out of the city and said, "Zhang Xiu, I didn''t expect that you could unite with the black mountain army. I don''t know how much you paid to let Zhang Yan of the black mountain Army take the grain transport team of my official for you. "


    After a pause, Yuan Shao said: "I tell you, even if I lost this batch of grain, Yuan Shao''s grain in dangyin county will be enough for at least three months. It''s no use if you take this grain. "


    "Bluff!"


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "if you have enough food in the city, you can eat it for three months. I''m Zhang Xiu. I eat earth for a month. "


    Yuan Shao said, "you''re sure to eat the earth."


    As a matter of fact, there are still three months left for the grain in Yuan Shao City, even less than one month. That''s why grain and grass have been sent.


    Unexpectedly, she was robbed by Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao''s heart is very flustered, but his face does not show the slightest.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m sure that you don''t have enough grain for three months, even one month is not enough. But none of this matters. Because next, you can''t keep the county seat of dangyin county. "


    "Besides, you''ve got one more piece of information wrong."


    "I''m not associated with Zhang Yan."


    "Zhang Yan has been used by me. She has become a subordinate of Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Yan is my Zhang Xiu man."


    Zhang Xiu speaks out Zhang Yan''s words of obedience. As soon as these words come out, Yuan Shao''s face changes again and again, and her heart is even more shocked.


    Did Zhang Yan submit to Zhang Xiu?


    You know, Zhang Yan is the leader of the black mountain army. He is a man who lives in black mountain and is extremely difficult to deal with. Even Yuan Shao himself had attacked Zhang Yan several times. But every time, Yuan Shao failed. Because even if Yuan Shao won occasionally, Zhang Yan quickly retreated into Heishan in the twinkling of an eye.


    It''s not only Yuan Shao who was shocked, but also Ju Shu and others.


    Everyone was surprised.


    The soldiers under Yuan Shao''s command were in a state of complete confusion.


    Originally, Yuan Shao''s soldiers were able to guard dangyin county because they could still defend dangyin county with the help of dangyin county. But now even Zhang Yan of the Heishan army has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu. Can they keep it?


    The morale of the army is falling.


    "In the beginning, general kouyi died. Later, Mr. Yuan Tan died. Now, Zhang Yan has come back to Zhang Xiu. Can we keep it? I''m afraid we can''t


    "Without food, it''s more difficult to keep dangyin county."


    "It''s over. It must be over."


    "Retreat, now we can only retreat."


    One by one, soldiers in the army kept whispering, Rao was so, and the voice was one after another. All the people talked about it, and there was a lot of haze and worry on their faces.


    The soldiers in trouble don''t think Yuan Shao can hold on. For these ordinary soldiers, Zhang Yan''s surrender of the black mountain army was like the last straw being crushed, which made their mind completely collapse.


    Yuan Shao heard the comments on the upper floor of the city and saw the terrified faces of the soldiers. His heart was even more flustered.


    The soldiers are in a mess!


    The morale of the army has collapsed!


    Under such circumstances, it is difficult for his soldiers to fight.


    "No, I''m in again!"


    Suddenly, he spoke again.


    Professor Ju gritted his teeth and said, "my Lord, Zhang Xiu deliberately said these news in order to weaken the fighting spirit of the soldiers in the army. Zhang Yan was our old enemy. Even Zhang Yan was obedient to Zhang Xiu. The soldiers were afraid, so they were embarrassed to fight. With the loss of grain and grass and the surrender of Zhang Yan to Zhang Xiu, the morale of the army will collapse. I''m afraid it''s extremely difficult for us to resist. "Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    Because he found a character of Zhang Xiu, that is to seize the advantage of a little bit, he chased him fiercely.


    This made Yuan Shao despair.


    Xu you sighed and said: "earlier, I said that Zhang Xiu is difficult to deal with, and it is not suitable to fight with her. Now, there''s no way. "


    The rest of the people were silent.


    Zhang Xiu said again, "Yuan Shao, there is another piece of news to tell you. Today''s Zhang Yan, led by 30000 troops, went straight to Yecheng. To the north of Jizhou, because of Gongsun Zan''s strong attack, you sent the soldiers who stayed in Yecheng to resist. But now, in the face of Zhang Yan''s 30000 elite soldiers, does Yecheng still have the strength to resist? "


    Boom!!


    When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was even more dizzy.


    His chest heaved again.


    "Poof!"


    Yuan Shao couldn''t bear it. He spat out another mouthful of blood.


    There was a moment of darkness before him.


    The dizziness in his brain made Yuan Shao almost unstable. Fortunately, yuan Shaoguo reached for the wall and held on to it. Otherwise, Yuan Shao will fall to the ground.


    "Alas, alas..."


    A sigh, clearly into Yuan Shao''s ears.


    Listening to the sighs of all the people, Yuan Shao came back to himself with a flustered look on his face. Yuan Shao led the army for more than ten years, but he had never encountered such a difficult problem.


    It''s too hard.


    He didn''t know how to make a decision.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you. Instead of asking him for his opinions, he asked Xu you, "Ziyuan, under the present situation, what do you think we should do?"


    Xu you was also very nervous and worried about his own safety.


    Because dangyin county can''t keep it.


    Xu you looked at the troops outside the city, thought about it, and said: "Lord, what we should do now is to guard dangyin county first. Only by guarding dangyin county can we find a chance to retreat. If we retreat now, once Zhang Xiu''s cavalry cover up, we will be very difficult. First guard dangyin County, and then look for the opportunity to retreat. "


    "It can only be like this."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded and agreed with Xu you''s analysis.


    In today''s situation, we can only defend.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The battle drums are ringing from outside the city.


    The mighty battle drums resounded on the battlefield. The fierce battle drum makes all Zhang Xiu''s soldiers blood boiling, but when it comes to the ears of Yuan Shao''s soldiers, it''s like a life threatening sign, which is frightening and terrifying.


    Xu you said: "Lord, here comes Zhang Xiu''s attack."


    Yuan Shao looked at Gao Lan and asked him to lead the army to guard. Gao Lan didn''t dare to delay his time. He quickly deployed his troops and deployed the castle defense. Everything is ready. Yuan Jun defends with all his strength.


    "Kill


    There was a cry of killing outside the city.


    Countless soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are roaring forward.


    Zhang Xiu''s army has launched a final sprint.

 Chapter 540

    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers rushed forward in black. These soldiers, all dressed in armour and armed with a knife and a shield, rushed forward with a howl.


    While these soldiers were sprinting, some catapults and archers came forward, some catapults constantly threw big stones, and some archers also arched to suppress the soldiers'' defense at the head of dangyin county.


    The siege forces, far away and constantly forward.


    It wasn''t long before we arrived at the city floor. A ladder set up on the wall, countless soldiers, continue to climb up.


    The attack was different from usual.


    Before that, Huang Zhong led his soldiers to attack the city of dangyin County, but it was a process of walking, so he didn''t attack much. But in this attack, there were not only 10000 people from the flying bear army, but also 10000 people from the fierce tiger army.


    Twenty thousand elite soldiers attacked. They were so black that they made people feel numb.


    The fierce situation is shocking.


    "Kill!"


    Shouts to kill the sound to ring out, innumerable soldiers, unceasing charge.


    In less than two quarters of an hour, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had already boarded the tower and began to kill the soldiers stationed on the tower. Even if Gaolan constantly mobilized soldiers to resist, and even if Gaolan prepared enough defensive measures, it did not stop the soldiers from attacking.


    Zhang Xiu looks confident in her eyes.


    It''s a battle to win!


    He believed that there would be no accident in this war, and Yuan Shao could not defend dangyin county.


    "Lord, please fight


    Zhao Yun stepped forward and asked for a fight.


    He was dressed in a white robe and armor, well-dressed and high spirited. At this moment, the Dragon gall and silver gun in Zhao Yun''s hand seemed to be alive and wanted to fight with Zhao Yun.


    Once upon a time, Zhao Yun followed Gongsun Zan, slaughtered countless foreigners, and saw Gongsun Zan''s charisma. But after seeing Zhang Xiu''s strength, he found that Gongsun Zan was too weak in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu used her own advantages to weaken and suppress Yuan Shao step by step, and constantly reduced the morale of Yuan Jun. That sharp words, as well as the means of killing without blood, let Zhao Yun heart.


    Zhao Yun has great admiration for Zhang Xiu.


    I admire Zhang Xiu''s means.


    Zhao Yun was also a general who had been on the battlefield, but if he put the same situation in Zhao Yun''s hands and let him command, he asked himself that he could not achieve the effect of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t refuse Zhao Yun''s invitation to fight and said, "go!"


    On the battlefield, you need a strong general!


    The army needs more powerful generals!


    Zhao Yun is a newcomer and is willing to take the lead. Zhang Xiu is happy to see his success. Zhang Xiu knows more about Zhao Yun''s ability. He hopes that Zhao Yun will shine brilliantly under his command.


    Zhao Yun rushed forward with the silver spear of the Dragon gall, and soon killed him at the bottom of the city. Compared with other soldiers, Zhao Yun is vigorous and fast.


    When climbing the city tower, Zhao Yun is as vigorous as an ape, moving around and up. Although there were fallen wood and stones on his head, Zhao Yun avoided them one by one.


    Soon, Zhao Yun reached the top.


    "Die


    On the tower, there was a shout from Yuan Jun''s soldiers. A soldier of Yuan Jun, holding a big gun in both hands, stabbed Zhao Yun''s head.


    "Whew!"


    The point of the gun is empty. It''s very fast.


    However, Zhao Yun ran away and avoided the spear. In his hand, he swung the bright silver gun of dragon gall, and the big gun shook in the air. In a twinkling of an eye, he stabbed the garrison soldiers.


    "Poof!"


    The silver gun was drawn out and blood spattered. Yuan Jun''s soldiers fell to the ground and were killed.


    Zhao Yun took advantage of this opportunity to grasp the city wall with his left hand and exert his strength with his hand. He jumped up in the air and entered the city wall. After he fell to the ground, the gentian bright silver gun shook and kept on attacking.


    The Dragon gall and silver spear are invincible.


    When Zhao Yun kept killing, he cooperated with the rest of the soldiers to attack and kill fiercely. The soldiers of Yuan''s army guarding the city are in danger. Even if yuan''s soldiers could hold on, they were in danger.


    Yuan Shao saw Zhang Xiu''s soldiers fighting on the tower, and his face became colder and colder.


    The situation is not good!


    I''m afraid we may not be able to hold on to the current situation in three hours at most.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, the situation is dangerous now. In this case, what shall we do? "


    Xu you suggested: "Lord, we have to evacuate first. But we can''t evacuate directly. Someone must guard dangyin county. In this way, we can evacuate safely. Otherwise, once a large-scale withdrawal, the army''s defensive will be completely defeated. "


    Yuan shaodao: "you say, how to do specifically?"


    Xu you''s mind changed, but he didn''t answer. Instead, he said, "this plan must be known by the military adviser Ju. The Lord asked him."


    Yuan Shao looked at Ju Shi and asked, "military adviser, what do you say to do?"


    When he heard Xu you''s words, he sneered. He knows that Xu you''s intention is to let him be the villain, but he won''t let Xu you Ruyi and can''t bear the consequences.Ju Shou shook his head and said, "Lord, I don''t understand what Xu Ziyuan means."


    "In his humble position, he thought that general Gaolan had outstanding ability and good command and dispatch, although many of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were killed on the city floor. But in fact, Gao Lan only dispatched more than 10000 soldiers to guard, and he has not yet sent all the soldiers


    "We can still hold on."


    "Our defenders have not reached the limit yet."


    Ju said: "so I think I can hold it today. I suggest that we retreat after dark


    Yuan Shao was upset when he heard this.


    What he said is the opposite of what he thought.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you again and said in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, if you have any suggestions, it''s OK to say so. Don''t prevaricate, don''t hide it. "


    Xu you looks embarrassed and smiles.


    Previously, he proposed to kill Yuan Tan.


    Now, he''s going to be a villain again.


    Xu you took a deep breath, because now there is no way, he can only say: "Lord, the only way now is to let Gao Lan lead the soldiers to guard the county seat of dangyin county."


    "Then the Lord led us, escorted by a group of soldiers, and left through the rest of the gates."


    "Let''s break through the siege and let Gao Lan take charge of the city defense."


    "Only in this way can we have a chance."


    Zhang you and Xu you were defeated this time. Our army can''t withstand Zhang Xiu''s attack. Military adviser Ju said that he could keep it during the day, but I don''t think so. It''s going to get worse. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao''s cheek twitched.


    He understood Xu you''s suggestion, but if he did, he would be abandoning Gao Lan and treating him as an abandoned son.


    This is Yuan Shao''s dilemma.


    Anyway, Gao Lan was a general under his command. During his time in dangyin County, Gao Lan worked hard and never abandoned his government affairs. Up to now, the situation is difficult and dangerous, and Gaolan has never given up.


    At this time, it was difficult for Yuan Shao to give up Gaolan.


    Xu you said that he had made a plan and had already made a villain, so he would not consider anything else. He watched the fighting on the upper floor of the city, and saw that more and more soldiers under Zhang Xiu were killed. He was even more worried. Although Gao Lan constantly dispatched his soldiers to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, Yuan''s army showed a declining trend and could not be stopped.


    Xu you''s heart, with a judgment.


    Xu you solemnly said, "my Lord, this is the end of the matter. We must make a decision as soon as possible. If you delay for another time, even if you want to retreat, it is impossible. My Lord, we should be determined, but we should be disturbed. At this time, entanglement can only put us in danger. "


    "Alas..."


    When Yuan Shao heard the speech, he couldn''t help sighing.


    That''s all!


    Can only be wronged Gao Lan.


    Yuan Shao immediately arranged for soldiers to call Gao Lan. Not long after, Gao Lan came to Yuan Shao''s side, wiped the blood on his face, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "what''s your order, Lord?"

 Chapter 541

    Yuan Shao''s face was cold and solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Gao Lan, the current situation is very bad. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s offensive is fierce. Under this premise, I''m afraid dangyin county will not be able to defend it. "


    Gao Lan said: "master Ming Jian!"


    It''s just Gaolan''s heart, but it gives birth to a little bit of bad.


    Things don''t look good.


    However, Gao Lan did not answer the call, but waited for Yuan Shao''s following.


    Yuan Shao''s face was extremely solemn and said solemnly: "in the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, there is no other way but to retreat. But if a swarm of people retreats, it is bound to lead to the rout of the whole army. "


    "To retreat, it must be an orderly retreat so that there will be no trouble."


    "Otherwise, it will collapse."


    "In the whole army, you are the only one who has both wisdom and courage and is deeply trusted by the soldiers. You are the most suitable person to guard. Only if you stay and guard the county seat of dangyin County, can the situation be stabilized. "


    "Apart from you, I can''t find a suitable person for the whole army."


    Yuan Shao continued: "after my official withdraws from dangyin County, you only need to guard for another one and a half hours to withdraw. Today, there are more than 20000 troops in the city floor that are not used. I''ll give you all the 20000 troops under your command. This time, I''ll retreat with only one thousand guards, and the rest of the soldiers will be arranged by you. "


    Brush!


    Gao Lan''s face has changed.


    He didn''t expect that he had become an abandoned son. In the moment of life and death, Yuan Shao chose to give him up and let him stay to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. You know, Zhang Xiu''s army is on the offensive. To resist Zhang Xiu''s army is to fight with your life.


    To stay is to die.


    Gao Lan has no way to refuse. He is a subordinate of Yuan Shao and works for Yuan Shao.


    He can only comply with the arrangement.


    Gao Lan took a deep breath, and his face became dignified, but he also clasped his hands and saluted: "my Lord, you should obey me. Since the LORD said one and a half hours, one and a half hours. I''d rather die in a humble position than block Zhang Xiu''s army for an hour and a half, and I''ll never retreat! "


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao reached for Gao Lan''s hand and solemnly said, "Gao Lan, you must keep it and come back safely."


    "Here it is


    Gao Lan nodded.


    It''s just his heart, but it''s a sneer.


    This has already given up on him. What else do you want to say? And before you come back, it''s necessary to hold on. In the final analysis, you should hold on to dangyin county and fight for time for Yuan Shao to retreat.


    It''s ironic.


    Yuan Shao said no more and turned to leave.


    Ju Shi, Guo Tu, Shen Pei, Xu you and others, one by one, followed Yuan Shao and left the north gate in a hurry to go to the east gate of dangyin County, ready to break through the east gate.


    Gao Lan looks at Yuan Shao leaving. He closes his hands and bows 90 degrees in the direction of Yuan Shao''s departure.


    This bow broke the friendship with Yuan Shao.


    He will stick to the last battle.


    He will hold on for an hour and a half.


    "General, Yuan Shao has gone too far. He took all the generals, all the civil servants. Although Yuan Shao left us, he asked you to stay and die. "


    Gao Lan''s bodyguard looked resentful.


    "Shut up


    Gao Lan gave a low drink and said, "I am a subordinate of the general. I eat your salary and be loyal to you. Now, in a time of crisis, I should finish the task myself. In an hour and a half, I will fight to the death. "


    The guards shook their heads and sighed.


    Gao Lan didn''t take charge of the retreating Yuan Shao and his party. When they returned to the command place, they dispatched soldiers to resist.


    After Gao Lan arranged for the soldiers to resist, he came to the front of nearly 20000 soldiers who had not yet been on the battlefield. He looked at the remaining soldiers, his eyes full of determination.


    Gao Lan took a breath and said in a loud voice: "you have seen that the general led the civil and military officers to leave. When the general leaves, let me stay and command you to resist Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "It''s the empress of the temple, but it''s no different from death. I''m sorry to ask you to die with me. I''ve never led a soldier to die like this before. "


    "But Gao Lan is here. Please forgive me for being selfish."


    "To eat your salary is to be loyal to you."


    Gao Lan said, "I will lead you to fight for another hour and a half. The reason is very simple. It was arranged by the general. He asked me to guard for an hour and a half before I could leave. "


    "For the last half hour, I will fight to the end."


    "Fight to the death to serve the general."


    "It''s my selfishness."


    "You are all soldiers under my command, willing to listen to my command. But I can''t let you die unwillingly. Those who are willing to stay and fight with me, stay and fight with me. "


    "If you don''t want to, retreat into the city."


    "I don''t want to force you. I want you to make your own choice."In the face of more than 10000 and nearly 20000 soldiers under his command, Gao Lan made it clear that he was going to fight for an hour and a half. He has the intention of surrendering, but the premise is that he will do the final task well.


    His ultimate loyalty is the bottom line of his loyalty.


    "We will follow the general."


    "Follow the general to the death!"


    "Follow the general!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one soldiers, shout.


    These soldiers are the lineage of Gao Lan. They are trained by Gao Lan and have deep feelings with Gao Lan. In the case of Gao Lan being abandoned, they are willing to stand with him.


    They are willing to support Gaolan.


    Nearly 20000 soldiers, shout together.


    When Gao Lan heard the shouts of his soldiers, he was moved by the mist in his eyes. Unexpectedly, all the soldiers would be willing to follow him and die with him.


    But in this war, I don''t know how many people will die. Knowing this, Gao Lan had to do it for him. Gao Lan took a deep breath, folded his hands and bowed 90 degrees again to thank nearly 20000 soldiers.


    He bowed his thanks and got up after a long time.


    Gao Lan didn''t say any more, because this soldier was his last fighting strength and his last pride. Gao Lan returned to the battlefield again, deployed his troops again, and arranged for his soldiers to resist the attack.


    On the tower, Zhao Yun showed off his power, and the rest of the soldiers under Zhang Xiu also kept rushing up.


    Fighting, continuous.


    The killing continues.


    When Gao Lan saw that some soldiers couldn''t resist, he sent them forward, so that even though there were a steady stream of soldiers rushing to the city building, Zhang Xiu''s army didn''t make a breakthrough.


    The killing has been going on.


    Zhang Xiu at the gate of the city, see a scene upstairs, is also frowning.


    The resistance of Yuan Shao''s army was too strong. He had continuously weakened the morale of Yuan Shao''s army and defeated the soldiers who attacked Yuan Shao, which made the morale of the other side completely destroyed. But he didn''t expect that Yuan Shao''s soldiers could be so effective.


    This is unexpected.


    Standing beside Zhang Xiu, Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Lord, the army under the command of the city tower is Gao Lan."


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Yang Xiu sighed: "Gaolan is a famous general in Hebei. It''s amazing how calm you can command even when the morale has dropped so far and the army is in low spirits. "


    Zhang Xiu also said with emotion: "Gao Lan is really worthy of his reputation."


    At the moment, the siege is still going on.


    Time goes by little.


    Half an hour!


    An hour!


    In the twinkling of an eye, it has been an hour, the defense on the tower is still not weakened, but is extremely strong. Even though Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning all went up to the castle and killed on a large scale, Yuan Jun''s soldiers who resisted kept on fighting like they didn''t want to die.


    Even if Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong were fierce, their personal strength was still too weak to play a decisive role in the face of the vast army.


    Unless you take Gao Lan.


    The problem is that Gao Lan did not fight in person. He was just in the rear, constantly directing the soldiers to resist. Therefore, even if Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning are highly skilled in martial arts, they will not be able to win.


    The fighting between the two sides continues.


    Kill!


    There was a lot of shouting.


    Countless soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are attacking yuan Jun''s soldiers. All the yuan soldiers left behind were fighting with all their might. But there are fewer and fewer people left.


    Up to now, there are less than 10000 troops left.


    Because too many yuan soldiers fled and too many reinforcements died.


    The rest are loyal to Gao Lan.


    Little by little, an hour and a half has arrived.


    At this time, Gao Lan was suddenly relieved. All his energy and energy seemed to have been taken away. He clenched his fist and gave a decisive order: "go on, all the army will surrender!"

 Chapter 542

    In an instant, the order of surrender spread all over the city. One by one, Yuan''s soldiers who fought each other withdrew from the battlefield. They all knelt on the ground and surrendered, throwing away their weapons.


    At the same time, Gao Lan had already taken off his armor, put down his weapons and knelt down.


    Such a scene is beyond the expectation of Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and others. It never occurred to anyone that Yuan''s soldiers, who were still fierce and were still fighting to the death, were suddenly all demoted.


    Just now, Yuan Jun vowed to fight to the death. One by one, they were crying out to fight. They were eager to kill and had a strong will to fight.


    It''s daunting.


    Zhao Yun and others all admire him, because he is a powerful army who is good at fighting. Such opponents, even enemies, such as Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, are given enough respect.


    It''s just, all of a sudden, it''s all down.


    Huang Zhong didn''t say much. With a wave of his hand, he ordered his men to detain yuan''s soldiers who surrendered. At this time, he came to Gaolan and took Gaolan.


    Huang Zhong doesn''t understand Gao Lan''s intention and doesn''t speak to him. He orders people to take control of the city and prepare to search for Yuan Shao and others.


    Gao Lan said, "General Huang, Yuan Shao has been away for an hour and a half."


    An hour and a half?


    Huang Zhong frowned, surprised, and said, "you mean that after Yuan Shao left, you stayed behind and took command, and resisted us for an hour and a half."


    "Yes


    Gao Lan nodded.


    Huang Zhong said: "then you have resisted for an hour and a half, but you have never been defeated. Why did you suddenly fail to resist?"


    Gao Lan said nothing more.


    Seeing that Huang Zhong couldn''t find out the reason, he arranged for the soldiers to go to the four City towers. Then, Huang Zhong asked people to open the gate and let Zhang Xiu and the subsequent army come in.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu entered, Huang Zhong reported Gao Lan''s situation.


    Zhang Xiu also had some accidents.


    He went straight up to the tower, came to Gao Lan, and asked, "just now Huang Zhong said that General Gao fought against our army for an hour and a half, and Yuan Shao walked for an hour and a half."


    "Your resistance for one and a half hours is wonderful."


    "Although you have caused me great losses, I admire your ability. But you resisted for an hour and a half, and then suddenly you couldn''t. It should be Yuan Shao who arranged for you to resist for an hour and a half, and then let you leave. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Shao treats you as an abandoned son, so after you finish Yuan Shao''s entrustment, you order no more resistance, right?"


    Gao Lan''s eyebrows rose, showing an unexpected look. He didn''t say why. Zhang Xiu guessed what he thought in his heart. He didn''t even have any mistakes. It''s really powerful.


    Gao Lan said: "Taiwei is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles gently. The reason why he can guess it is because he knows that Yuan Shao regards Gao Lan as an abandoned son. Zhang Xiu clearly remembers that in the battle of Guandu in history, after Yuan Shao''s defeat in the north, Zhang Ya and Gao Lan were also allowed to resist Cao Jun and regarded Zhang Ya and Gao Lan as abandoned sons.


    In the end, Gao Lan and Zhang Yan were both subordinated to Cao Cao.


    Things are different, but a person''s temperament will not change.


    Zhang Xiu believes that Gao Lan is.


    So Zhang Xiu guessed that one and a half hours was the agreement Yuan Shao gave Gao Lan. Gao Lan fulfilled Yuan Shao''s orders and devoted himself to Yuan Shao. In the end, Gao Lan, with a cold heart, chose to surrender.


    This is Gaolan.


    This is a living high view.


    Flesh and blood!


    It''s not masculine, it''s not flexible, it''s not stubborn when there''s a bottom line.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu once again said, "General Gao is willing to surrender. Then, are you willing to work for me?"


    This inquiry is a solicitation.


    Before Gao Lan surrendered, he did not resist.


    It''s not working.


    When Gao Lan heard Zhang Xiu''s question, he didn''t answer it immediately. Instead, he asked, "Zhang Taiwei knows that I betrayed Yuan Shao. Do you dare to use me now? You know, I''m a second minister. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "if you are a second minister, I like you. You are loyal to Yuan Shao. In the end, you gave up resistance, reduced casualties, and could not bear the death of soldiers, because of kindness; you know the reason why good birds choose trees, because of tact. I don''t dare to use a person like you. "


    After hearing this, Gao Lan said: "Gao Lan, I''d like to meet you!"


    "Good!" said Zhang Xiu


    Zhang Xiu is also happy to attract Gao Lan. However, for the time being, Zhang Xiu did not arrange Gao Lan''s official position, because the war was not over. Now it is too early to arrange Gao Lan, so she can only leave Gao Lan in the army for the time being.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came.


    But Chen is here.


    Chen Dao''s face was very hasty. He walked up to Zhang Xiu and said solemnly, "Lord, Yuan Shao has already escaped. According to the news, Yuan Shao walked for an hour and a half. Although Yuan Shao runs fast, the cavalry of Langya camp, who is under his humble command, may not be able to catch up. I''ll go after Yuan Shao at once. ""Go for it!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.


    Suddenly, Sima Yi said, "General Chen, wait a minute!"


    Chen Dao said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu also looks at Sima Yi. He is curious. What does Sima Yi have to say.


    In Sima Yi''s eyes, there was a light in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "if you capture and kill Yuan Shao now, or even seize Yuan Shao, Jizhou will be in chaos, and even most of Jizhou will be divided up by Gongsun Zan or Cao Cao."


    "With the current strength of the Lord, even if he can attack Jizhou, he will not be able to capture it."


    "We don''t have that foundation."


    "It''s too long to fight in Jizhou now. Moreover, in Jizhou, there are many aristocratic families. We suddenly went to Jizhou. Under the condition of unstable foundation, we could not control the situation. "


    Sima Yi had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "this time Yuan Shao was defeated, the humble suggestion is enough. What''s more, Zhang Yan is attacking Yecheng. They will also deal with Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Xiu heard Sima Yi''s words and understood Sima Yi''s worries.


    This battle is almost certain.


    If there is no Cao Cao on the side of the covetous, Zhang Xiu can drive straight in, directly defeated Yuan Shao''s headquarters Ye City. The problem is that there are Gongsun Zan in the north and Cao Cao in Yanzhou. Even though Gongsun Zan is weak today, his real strength is not so weak.


    Cao Cao is not simple.


    Therefore, Sima Yi hoped that Zhang Xiu would stop when she saw the good and consolidate her foundation first.


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while, laughed and said: "Zhongda, your consideration is reasonable, but you forget a fact. First, we haven''t caught Yuan Shao. Second, we have not entered Jizhou. Even if we catch Yuan Shao, we can release people. It''s a pity that we have won, but we have given up the chance to pursue hard. If we don''t fight Yuan Shao, we''ll waste our present opportunity. "


    "Ah


    Sima Yi heard the speech and exclaimed.


    Just now, he was immersed in the consequences of taking Yuan Shao. But ignore that even if you catch people, you can let them go.


    This is one of the keys.


    With a look of shame, Sima Yi said, "my Lord, I don''t think much about my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "your consideration is very good. Today''s Jizhou really can''t do without Yuan Shao. Without Yuan Shao, the balance of the situation in the North would be broken. But now, we have to pursue Yuan Shao first. "


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Chen to one side and ordered: "Uncle Zhi, chase it!"


    "Here it is


    Chen arrived at the command, took a team of soldiers and left first.


    Zhang Xiuze led the army and began to clean up the battlefield of Yin county and deal with the follow-up. When everything in dangyin county was finished, Zhang Xiu slowly took the army north to Jizhou.


    This time, we have to chase hard.


    We should beat Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 543

    The rapid sound of horse''s hooves resounded through the official road.


    Yuan Shao and his party of more than 1000 people are on their way. No matter Yuan Shao or others, their faces are dignified and full of worry.


    This battle, defeated!


    All the 100000 troops under Yuan Shao''s command remained in dangyin county.


    When he came, Yuan Shao had a hundred thousand people under his command. He was as energetic as a tiger, and he was even more instructive. Yuan Shao believed that if he went out to fight, he would certainly be able to capture Guanzhong and gain a foothold in Guanzhong.


    But now, Yuan Shao ran away, leaving only a thousand soldiers under his command.


    The gap is too big.


    Yuan Shao has lived for decades and has never met such a tragic situation.


    It''s too bad.


    Not only was he defeated, but his generals Qu Yi, Chun Yu Qiong and his son Yuan Tan all died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Yuan Shao thought about the battle with Zhang Xiu, and his heart was a burst of despair.


    Even though he had a strong army, he seemed to be hanged from beginning to end.


    The two sides are at war.


    He is like a three-year-old child, while Zhang Xiu is an adult. The confrontation between the two sides is no longer at the same level.


    At this time, the group retreated all the way. They were very tired, and there were no pursuers in the rear, so they stopped for a while to rest. Yuan Shao found a big tree to lean against at will and took time to rest.


    Ju Shi, Xu you, Yuan Shang and others all sat down around Yuan Shao. On all faces, there was a look of lingering fear.


    The fighting in dangyin county was too fierce and the damage was too great.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said in a deep voice, "Ziyuan, you said that Gaolan had been sitting in the rear Hall of the town for an hour and a half. Can he withdraw from dangyin county?"


    Xu you said in a deep voice: "with the strength of Gaolan, there is no problem. Lord, you don''t have to worry about Gao Lan''s safety. As long as we retreat with all our strength and don''t increase the burden on Gao Lan, Gao Lan will be able to evacuate. "


    "I hope so!"


    In Yuan Shao''s heart, however, there was no hope.


    In the current situation, even Yuan Shao himself does not think that Gaolan will be in a tight encirclement if he can really stick to it for one and a half hours.


    Xu you changed his words and said again, "my Lord, it''s meaningless to worry about Gao Lan now. He''s the best when he comes back. If we don''t pull it back, there''s no way. "


    "What we have to consider now is the withdrawal of Yecheng."


    "Previously, Zhang Xiu said one thing."


    "Zhang Yan, the black mountain army, has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu and is leading his troops to attack Yecheng. Under such a premise, it is quite likely that we will be ambushed halfway when we withdraw and return. "


    Xu you said in a deep voice: "the humble proposal must be withdrawn as soon as possible. Only when ye city is withdrawn can the Lord mobilize his troops to defend against Zhang Xiu''s attack. "


    Ju said: "Ziyuan means that we will be ambushed by the black mountain army on our way back. But similarly, there may be pursuers coming from our rear, and Zhang Xiu is likely to send cavalry to cover us up. "


    The rest echoed.


    People''s words made Yuan Shao''s face sink.


    It''s pretty bad.


    Yuan Shao looked at Xu you and said, "Ziyuan, under the present situation, what do you say to do?"


    Xu you replied, "there are only two ways."


    Yuan Shao is also a man who can lead the army to fight. As soon as he listens to Xu you''s words, he suddenly understands. At this time, the army was divided into two routes, one under the banner of Yuan Shao, and the other under the real name of Yuan Shao.


    Only in this way can we leave quietly.


    Only in this way can we return safely.


    Yuan Shao thought about it and said, "Ziyuan, you are very intelligent and familiar with Zhang Xiu''s methods. This time, you led 800 elite soldiers back to Yecheng. The rest of the people, with the official copy path back


    "Ah


    Xu you exclaimed.


    At this moment, Xu you''s face became extremely pale, and his eyes showed a look of horror.


    He didn''t want to lead.


    On the one hand, they may be ambushed by Zhang Yan of the Heishan army, on the other hand, they may also be pursued by Zhang Xiu''s army, which is extremely dangerous.


    Xu Gu Dong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked unwilling, and said: "Lord, in my opinion, it is most appropriate for the rest of the people to lead the 800 elite soldiers. After all, the humble martial arts are too weak to be in charge of the army. "


    "No, you are the most suitable."


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "Ziyuan, you are flexible and good at solving complicated things. This time, I believe you can do it well. Ziyuan, the safety of my official is entrusted to you. I''ll celebrate for you when I get back to Yecheng. "


    Change your face again.


    Earlier, he suggested that Yuan Shao treat Gao Lan as an abandoned son.


    In the twinkling of an eye, he became an abandoned son.


    At this moment, Xu you deeply realized the feeling of becoming an abandoned son. That kind of helplessness, that kind of despair, it''s almost crazy. However, Xu you couldn''t find any reason to refuse because he was from Yuan Shao."Mr. Xu, it''s your chance to let you lead the army. This time, do well. "


    "Mr. Xu."


    "Mr. Xu will lead the army in this battle. With his intelligence, he will definitely avoid Zhang Yan''s ambush safely. What''s more, there may not be ambush on the way back. It''s very likely that Zhang Yan will attack Yecheng directly and will not arrange ambush. "


    ¡­¡­


    One person, one after another.


    No one stood up to speak for Xu you. They all fell into the well and let Xu you lead the army.


    At this moment, Xu you''s heart is so cool.


    Xu you''s cheek puffed and suddenly sneered twice. At this moment, he can be regarded as seeing people''s attitude towards him. Xu you took a deep breath and said, "the Lord will arrange it, and Xu you will execute it. Please rest assured that Xu you will do his best. "


    Yuan Shao said: "hard work is far away."


    "It''s not hard to be humble!"


    The look on Xu you''s face was that Gujing didn''t see any waves any more.


    There is no more sorrow than death.


    So far, Xu you''s heart, no more hope. Because in today''s situation, no matter what he said, Yuan Shao would not arrange another person to lead the soldiers. He could only lead the soldiers by biting his teeth.


    After all the arrangements were made, Yuan Shao immediately led his troops to leave, took 200 soldiers with him, and took the path back to Yecheng.


    Xu you and his soldiers stay where they are.


    Xu you''s heart, but thinking about their own retreat. Yuan Shao is more willing to be ambushed, and he is not willing to play for Yuan Shao. So Yuan Shao asked him to lead the army in the official way. He didn''t have the heart at all.


    However, Xu you also knows that Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept him at all. If Zhang Xiu is willing to accept, when she was captured by Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu has accepted him.


    "To Yanzhou!"


    Xu you''s eyes, suddenly across a light.


    Yuan shaoshe abandoned him, Zhang Xiu did not use him, so he went to Yanzhou to join Cao Cao. After all, he and Cao Cao have a good relationship.


    Xu you arranged for the general to lead the troops and withdraw to Yecheng along the official road. Xu you, with a few soldiers, turned directly to Yanzhou instead of Jizhou.

 Chapter 544

    Zhang Yanbing divided into two ways, one to attack Yecheng, the other to ambush. The way to attack Yecheng was smooth at the beginning, but when it was getting closer to Yecheng, it was blocked.


    It''s not going well.


    After all, Yecheng was the base camp of Yuan Shao, with a large number of troops.


    It''s not easy to defeat these armies. In addition, Zhang Yan arranged for soldiers to ambush Yuan Shao on his way back. He did ambush Yuan Shao''s army, but only captured hundreds of soldiers, and did not catch any other big fish.


    Zhang Yan and Pang Tong were very dissatisfied with the result.


    It''s a waste of work.


    When Zhang Yan''s troops slowly advanced to Yecheng, Zhang Xiu arrived with the army. Zhang Yan went out to welcome Zhang Xiu in person. After seeing Zhang Xiu, she said with her fist in her arms, "I''ve met my Lord, general Zhang Yan. I''m incompetent in my humble position. Today, I can''t enter Yecheng. "


    After a pause, Zhang Yan said, "the lowly soldiers were ambushed on the way, but only nearly 800 yuan soldiers were captured. The rest were not captured."


    Zhang Xiu was surprised and asked, "didn''t you meet Yuan Shao?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Yan replied: "according to the soldier''s report, on the way, Yuan Shao left by another way. At that time, Yuan Shao left Xu you to lead the team, but after Yuan Shao left, Xu you left immediately and disappeared. "


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered.


    Yuan Shao regarded Xu you as an abandoned son, and Xu you left directly.


    This time, Yuan Shao lost a lot.


    Pang Tong faced Zhang Xiu, some lost, said: "Lord, humble and general Zhang attacked Yecheng, but failed, please punish."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "you two, what''s the matter? One said he was incompetent, the other pleaded guilty. Why are you guilty? You have destroyed Yuan Shao''s last insistence by exterminating Yuan Shao''s grain transport team and raiding Yecheng. "


    "You''ve done a lot!"


    "In this battle with Yuan Shao, it will be very difficult to destroy yuan Jun in dangyin county and make Yuan Shao collapse completely without your help."


    "The two of you are not only innocent, but also meritorious."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "go, now the Army meet, kill to rush to Ye City!"


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan and Pang Tong bowed their hands.


    Although Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything and praised them, they didn''t achieve their goal, but they were lost.


    After all, it''s a little bit off.


    The army continued on their way to Yecheng. Today, Zhang Xiu''s army has nearly 100000 people. In addition, the strength of Zhang Guishun''s embroidery is greatly increased.


    All the way to Yecheng, almost no one can stop him. When Zhang Xiu''s army was getting closer to Yecheng, Yuan Shao had already taken the path to return to Yecheng.


    Yuan Shao mobilized all his forces to defend Yecheng, but he was still worried.


    Now in this situation, Gongsun Zan came to kill in the north, while Zhang Xiu came to kill in the army, and Yuan Shao was already stretched out. The most important thing is that there has been no news about Gao Gan''s action in Bingzhou.


    Yuan Shao was worried.


    Ye City, the general''s house.


    Yuan Shao''s face was as deep as water, and there were civil servants and military generals sitting below. All his faces had a burning look.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes swept the crowd and said in a deep voice: "today, Zhang Xiu''s army is about to arrive in Yecheng. Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan meet, and Xu you with the team, has no news. I''m afraid Xu you was killed. Now, how can we resist Zhang Xiu? "


    When people heard the words, they were silent.


    Zhang Xiu''s military front is too strong to resist.


    Deep in everyone''s heart, there is that kind of fear and worry.


    Yuan Shao looked at Ju Shi and asked, "military adviser, what do you think should be done when Zhang Xiu is killed this time?"


    He said: "my Lord, I think I can only fight to the end. In today''s situation, we have no other choice. We are backed by Jizhou and have a deep foundation. We summon all forces to fight with Zhang Xiu to the end. I don''t believe it. Zhang Xiu dares to fight with us. "


    But Yuan Shao frowned and shook his head.


    He doesn''t like his plan. It''s too risky. What if he is defeated by Zhang Xiu?


    He has no way back.


    Guo Tu zhengse said: "my Lord, I think that at this time, I can only endure temporarily to avoid the edge of Zhang Xiu. When we have solved Gongsun Zan''s threat, we will consider revenge. Therefore, he suggested to send someone to Zhang Xiu for peace. "


    Yuan Shao''s eyes brightened.


    Guo Tu''s words hit his heart.


    Now that the war is going on, Yuan Shao doesn''t want to fight any more and plans to make peace with Zhang Xiu.


    But Yuan Shao said: "in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu has an absolute advantage. I''m afraid it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to accept peace. "


    Guo Tu shook his head and said, "I heard that Zhang Xiu captured Cao Cao''s eldest son Cao ang and general Yu ban when he was fighting with Cao Cao. But Zhang Xiu accepted Cao Cao''s request for peace."Yuan Shao said, "I know about this."


    Guo Tu continued: "but at that time, Cao Cao married a daughter to Zhang Xiu. At that time, Zhang Xiu agreed to Cao Cao''s terms. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is quite lecherous. The Lord can follow Cao Cao''s example and marry his daughter to Zhang Xiu, and then give her some compensation, which is bound to make her retreat. "


    Yuan shaodeng was silly and said, "but there is no daughter of the right age under the general''s knee. Even if there are, the rest of the daughters are married. "


    The rest of them all looked surprised.


    No one thought that Guo Tu would come here. If you ask Zhang Xiu for peace, that''s all. It happened that Yuan Shao should learn from Cao Cao and marry his daughter to Zhang Xiu.


    It''s so funny.


    Guo Tu, however, looked solemn. He said solemnly: "at the Lord''s knee, although he has no daughter of the right age, I heard that Zhen MI, a daughter of the Zhen family in Zhongshan state, was born in 1928. She was beautiful and beautiful. The Lord might as well take Zhen Mi as his adopted daughter and marry her to Zhang Xiu to promote peace. Zhang Xiumu is very fond of women, and he is likely to agree. "


    WOW!!


    When they heard the speech, they looked at Guo TU with a look of consternation in their eyes.


    It seems that he first met Guo tu. in order to make peace with Zhang Xiu, Guo Tu did not hesitate to suggest Yuan Shao, let Yuan Shao accept the daughter of the Zhen family as his adopted daughter, and then make peace with Zhang Xiu.


    It''s a shocking operation.


    But when Yuan Shao heard this, he looked happy and praised: "yes, yes, the Lord is right. It can be done like this."


    Gongze is the character of Guotu.


    Guo Tu said in a deep voice: "it''s easy for the Lord to accept Zhen MI. As for seeking peace with Zhang Xiu, we must pay a certain price again. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, soldiers entered.


    "What''s the matter?" Yuan Shao asked


    Soldier report: "report back to the general, is Bingzhou governor Gao Gan, there are war reports back."


    Yuan Shao said: "hand it up!"


    The soldier took out the letter and presented it to the desk in front of Yuan Shao.


    After Yuan Shao waved the soldiers back, he opened the letter to read. After reading it, his face was also gloomy. He patted the letter on the desk and said in a deep voice: "Gao Gan sent back the letter. He sent troops into Hedong county and was strongly resisted. In particular, Zhang jaw reaction speed, has moved troops into Hedong, Gao Gan is difficult to approach Chang''an


    "Alas..."


    When they heard the words, they all sighed.


    It''s over!


    The last hope, shattered!

 Chapter 545

    If Gao GaN has led a large army to Chang''an and the army is on the way, maybe he can threaten Zhang Xiu. But now, Gao Gan''s army, blocked in Hedong, is not even close to Chang''an, so it can''t threaten Zhang Xiu.


    As a result, Yuan Shao did not have any courage to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Only the sum.


    Yuan shaoshen took a deep breath, and his eyes fell on Guo Tu again. He asked, "gongze, you already know the news about Gao Gan. Now, apart from accepting Zhen Mi as her adopted daughter, what else do you suggest? "


    Gongze is the character of Guotu.


    Guo Tu replied: "first, he ordered Gao Gan to withdraw from the army without attacking Chang''an. Because in today''s situation, it is obvious that senior cadres can not succeed. It''s better to retreat earlier than to fall into war. "


    "Second, in order to appease Zhang Xiu, he suggested that he should cut the upper County of Bingzhou and give it to Zhang Xiu. Shangjun is located in the west of Bingzhou, and the territory is sandy, not a prosperous place. In addition, there are also many foreign nationalities in the interior, which Gao Gan never accepted. Ceding Shangjun to Zhang Xiu is enough to make Zhang Xiu withdraw. "


    Guo Tu put forward two suggestions.


    On hearing this, Professor Ju said in a loud voice, "Lord, ceding territory is a great shame."


    Yuan Shao said: "strategist, do you have a way?"


    In a word, I am dumb.


    Up to now, Yuan Shao has been at an absolute disadvantage. In particular, Yuan Shao was worried about the threat of Gongsun Zan in the north. Once he fought with Zhang Xiu in Yecheng for a long time, if Gongsun Zan attacked the city and plundered the land, the situation would be even worse.


    This is what Yuan Shao does not want to see.


    In particular, Shangjun was no longer under Yuan Shao''s rule, and nominally ceding a county had no influence on Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "do you still have any opinions?"


    The crowd shook their heads.


    Yuan Shao ordered: "gongze, I have ordered you to be my envoy to Zhang Xiu camp on behalf of me and take full charge of the negotiation. You must make Zhang Xiu withdraw from the army during your visit. "


    "I''ll do it


    Guo Tu bowed his hand to answer the question. He was not deeply ashamed because he had offered a scheme to harm Yuan Shao. On the contrary, he was proud of this because he solved Yuan Shao''s crisis.


    Guo Tu didn''t delay, so he turned around and stepped down. He went back to his house first, cleaned up a little, changed his clothes and went out of the city in a carriage.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is not far from Yecheng.


    Guo Tu came to the front of Zhang Xiu''s army. After being informed by the soldiers, he came to Zhang Xiu. Today''s Guo Tu, dressed in a broad collar shirt and a Jin Xian crown, is a famous scholar.


    Guo Tu looked calm and said, "I''ve met Zhang Taiwei in the next Guo tu."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Mr. Guo, are you not afraid to die miserably in our army now?"


    Guo TU was surprised to hear that Zhang Xiu called him Mr. Guo. This is Zhang Xiu''s courteous and virtuous corporal. Just like this, Guo Tu''s impression of Zhang Xiu is also quite good.


    Guo Tu shook his sleeve robe, raised his head and said, "I''m here to see Taiwei Zhang. I''m here at the Lord''s command, and I''m here to resolve the conflict between the two sides."


    When Zhang Xiu heard it, she was happy.


    The so-called solution to the contradictions between the two sides is tantamount to Yuan Shao''s early admission.


    That''s a good thing.


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "Yuan Shao, how to resolve the contradiction between the two sides?"


    Guo Tu said: "the Lord has given enough sincerity to resolve the contradiction. First of all, there is an adopted daughter named Zhen MI, who was born in Zhongshan, Jizhou. In his 28th year, she was as beautiful as a flower and had a beautiful face. The Lord is willing to marry his adopted daughter to Zhang Taiwei, so as to facilitate the relaxation of bilateral relations. "


    "Second, the Lord is willing to cede Bingzhou to Zhang Taiwei to ease the relationship between the two sides. Shangjun is adjacent to Guanzhong. The land is rich and it is a natural grazing horse farm. This is the sincerity of the Lord. "


    "Third, the Lord ordered Bingzhou senior cadres to withdraw from the army and no longer attack Hedong county."


    Guo Tu said, "Tai Wei Zhang, this is the sincerity of our Lord."


    There was a trace of surprise in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Yuan Shao is really a counsellor.


    And this time, Yuan Shao even ceded Shangjun. But after thinking about it in her heart, Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "Mr. Guo, I''m afraid that Yuan Shao''s reason for admitting counsels is that Gao Gan is in Hedong County, and he can''t get any benefits, so he can''t go south."


    Guo Tu smiles.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu can see through it at a glance.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "first, Zhen Mi of Zhongshan state in Jizhou is a woman of the Zhen family. It''s not surprising that Yuan Shao only plays with other people''s daughters. "


    "Second, the upper County of Bingzhou is rich in land and abundant in water and grass. However, the upper county is located in the west of Bingzhou, bordering Guanzhong in the south, but adjacent to Liangzhou in the north and West. It is also a place where the Hu and Qiang people gather. Gao Gan may not be able to control it. On the surface, yuan Shaocheng is full of ideas, but in fact, he is perfunctory. "


    Zhang xiudao: "you bully my official, do not understand the actual situation?"


    Guo Tu''s face changed slightly.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu criticized Yuan Shao''s conditions for nothing. It is not easy to know that Guo Tu has put forward three points. If we let Yuan Shao bleed heavily again and really touch Yuan Shao''s bottom line, we may not be able to promote peace between the two sides.Kuo Tu took a deep breath and said, "Taiwei Zhang, the terms offered by the LORD have been done. It''s not perfunctory. All three conditions are sincere. "


    "Not enough!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Guo Tu clenched his teeth and said, "what conditions does Zhang Taiwei need?"


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "with another additional condition, 3000 horses, I will withdraw."


    "Good!"


    Guo Tu answered directly.


    Three thousand horses, though not a small number, were not difficult for Yuan Shao. He thinks it''s worth it to be able to solve the current situation.


    Zhang Xiu said, "well, go and inform Yuan Shao. Let Yuan Shao publish a notice saying that he took the initiative to make peace with his own official. Then, our officers will fight outside Ye City. When will Yuan Shao fulfill his agreement and when will he withdraw his troops? "


    "Yes!"


    Guo Tu bowed his hand and walked away.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the back of the past, the corners of her mouth stirred up a smile.


    Yuan Shao asked for peace and Zhang Xiu made a lot of money.


    Zhen family is a big family in Jizhou, with strong strength and excellent economy. If Zhen Mi marries him, can the Zhen family still have a foothold in Jizhou? We can only withdraw from Jizhou and enter the jurisdiction of Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, if the Zhen family doesn''t pay attention, they may be targeted by Yuan Shao.


    It''s wonderful to earn a Zhen family. What Yuan Shao thought of was that she was attracted by her love and confused by her beauty. But in fact, what Zhang Xiu saw was the interests of the Zhen family.


    Besides, Shangjun and 3000 horses are also good.


    Of course, this is not based on Zhang shaoxiu. At this time, if Zhang Xiu pursues fiercely, it is possible to break Yecheng with Zhang Xiu''s current strength and Yuan Shao''s situation.


    But after breaking Jizhou, Yuan Shao fled, as Sima Yi said, it didn''t do much good to Zhang Xiu. Because at present, although Zhang Xiu''s combat effectiveness is strong, her roots are not deep.


    Not enough to expand.


    I can''t control Jizhou.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu adopted Sima Yi''s strategy and stopped attacking Yuan Shao.


    For Zhang Xiu, as long as he has a solid foundation and a stable rear, he can solve the problems of Liangzhou, hansui and others, and win Yizhou, Jingzhou and other places, then it is the time for Zhang Xiu to come out of the world.


    For now, we have to stabilize the situation.


    Zhang Xiu''s every step is very steady. When Cao ang, Yu Jin and others were captured, Zhang Xiu could at least enter Yanzhou with a small and weak force. But Zhang Xiu refused, only to reap the benefits, and temporarily turned a fight with Cao Cao into friendship because of lack of foundation.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has defeated Yuan Shao, but many of Jizhou''s aristocratic families are not strong enough for Zhang Xiu to be involved in Jizhou. He is not suitable to attack Jizhou until he has established a solid foundation.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Not for the fastest, but for every step, step by step forward.


    He is confident that he will eventually reach the top.

 Chapter 546

    Zhongshan state, Wuji county.


    The Zhen family in Jizhou is located in the west of the city. Its residence is broad, simple and heavy, which is extraordinary.


    Backyard, a secluded yard.


    A woman of 28 years old is reading in the yard. This woman has red lips and green eyebrows. Her eyes are full of eyes. Her skin is as elegant as white jade.


    When she sits here, she gives people a sense of quiet and elegant.


    This woman is Zhen MI.


    She is the youngest in her family, with four married sisters and a living brother. As the apple of the Zhen family''s eye, Zhen Mi wants wind and rain at home.


    In fact, Zhen MI has a strong voice at home. Not only because she is sensible, knowledgeable and reasonable, but also because she is intelligent and intelligent, and has helped the Zhen family through many difficulties. Under the operation of Zhen MI, the business of the Zhen family did not decline because of the war, but prospered.


    Although Zhen MI is young, he has dealt with his family''s affairs early.


    Even his elder brother, Zhen Yao, was obedient in front of Zhen MI.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, a sudden sound of footsteps came from outside the yard.


    It''s Zhen Mi''s maid.


    The servant girl came to Zhen MI with a curious look in her eyes and said, "girl, I heard that the general sent counsellor Guo Tu to our house and was talking with the third master."


    The third master is Zhen Yao.


    It was Zhen Yao who was in charge of the Zhen family. Above Zhen Yao, there are actually two elder brothers, but they have passed away. Zhen Yao is the only adult male in the Zhen family.


    When Zhen Mi heard the servant girl''s words, she laughed and said, "general yuan sent someone here to recruit my elder brother?"


    "I don''t know!"


    The servant girl shook her head and said, "I''ve arranged for someone to inquire. As soon as I have news, I''ll report it immediately."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhen Mi nodded and said nothing more.


    She is not a talkative person. She rubs the white paper in her hand and continues to read.


    Zhen Mi read a lot.


    Not only some miscellaneous notes, but also other business books, biographies and so on, she has dabbled in and learned a lot.


    The maid stepped back and left the yard.


    Time went by a little bit. About a quarter of an hour later, the servant girl flew in. Her face was not as calm as before. On the contrary, she was quite frightened and said, "girl, it''s not good. Something''s wrong."


    Zhen Mi put down the book and asked, "what happened?"


    The servant girl said: "listen to the people waiting outside the hall, Guo Tu came to our house not to recruit the third master to become an official, but to take you as his adopted daughter on behalf of general yuan. General yuan is going to marry you to Taiwei Zhang Xiu. Isn''t Yuan Shao buying and selling by force? "


    Zhen Mi''s eyebrows frowned slightly, but in a twinkling of an eye, the wrinkled brow stretched out again.


    Seeing that Zhen MI was not worried at all, the servant girl said, "girl, you are going to be sold by Yuan Shao now. Aren''t you worried?"


    "What''s the use of urgency?"


    There was no panic in Zhen Mi''s dark and bright eyes. He looked calm and said, "wait a minute, brother will come to see me soon. When it comes to my marriage, my brother won''t make a decision without authorization. "


    The servant girl said, "but it''s Yuan Shao. What shall we do?"


    Zhen Mi takes a look at the servant girl. She smiles, gets up and walks away from the yard.


    She shouldn''t have asked about it.


    After a while, footsteps came from outside the yard. A nearly 30-year-old, handsome, soft, even slightly weak man strode into.


    This person is Zhen Yao.


    He is Zhen Mi''s third brother.


    Compared with his dead second brother, Zhen Yan, Zhen Yao is much worse in means, character and even courage. He is only a Chinese talent.


    In fact, it is difficult for such a person to control the Zhen family. It is Zhen Mi who gives advice behind the scenes that makes the Zhen family what it is today. When Zhen Yao entered, his face was slightly weak. He sat down in front of Zhen MI with a soft look and said slowly, "little sister!"


    "What''s the matter, brother?" said Zhen MI


    Zhen Yao scratched his head, a pair of words and stop appearance, words to the mouth, but swallow back.


    "What''s the matter, brother?" said Zhen MI


    Zhen Yao took a deep breath and said, "Yuan Shao, a media protector, hopes to promote the marriage between our Zhen family and Zhang Xiu in Guanzhong. For this reason, Yuan Shao is willing to accept his younger sister as her adopted daughter. "


    Zhen Mi snorted and said, "I''m afraid Yuan Shao wants to use my Zhen family to make me a pawn. What else can he say about media protection. Does the Zhen family have room to refuse such an insurance agent as him? "


    "I''m afraid not!"


    Zhen Yao scratched his head and said, "in today''s situation, the Zhen family has no room for resistance. You know, Yuan Shao is a great general, and he said a lot in Jizhou. Our Zhen family and Yuan Shao fought against each other. In the end, it was us who suffered. Even if the Zhen family is a famous family, they are businessmen after all. Yuan Shao can destroy our Zhen family with just one order. "Zhen Mi said, "brother, do you mean to agree to this marriage?"


    "I, I..."


    When the words came to his mouth, Zhen Yao said, "little sister, I''ll listen to you. As long as you don''t want to, I will reject Guo Tu immediately. Now, Guo Tu is still at home, so I refuse him directly. I don''t believe it. What can Yuan Shao do with our Zhen family? "


    Zhen Mi said, "I appreciate your kindness. If you can''t resist it, let it be. What''s more, Zhang Xiu is a Taiwei. It''s not a shame to marry her as a concubine. Better be a heroic concubine than a mediocre wife. I agree to the marriage. "


    "Good, good!"


    On hearing this, Zhen Yao let out a sigh of relief.


    He''s in the middle. He''s in a real dilemma. His original intention is to follow Zhen Mi''s advice. However, Yuan Shao is a general who controls the power of Jizhou. If he resists, it will be the Zhen family who will suffer.


    So in his heart, Zhen Yao hoped that Zhen Mi would agree. Zhen Yao stood up and said, "I''m going to reply Guo Tu and ask him to send a letter back."


    Zhen Mi nods, picks up the book on the front desk and continues to read. Zhen Mi doesn''t seem to have any feelings about getting married. Because she knows a truth, since can''t avoid, can only face.


    It doesn''t help to abandon oneself.


    Zhen Mi also knows about Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu married Huang Yueying and later Cao Cao''s daughter. Zhang Xiu killed Xiongnu, defeated Cao Cao, beheaded Li Xi and killed Guo Si, all of which Zhen Mi knew.


    After all, in the hands of Zhen MI, he controls the information system of the Zhen family and is well-informed.


    I just didn''t expect to marry Zhang Xiu.


    In this regard, Zhen Mi does not contradict.


    With her family background, she may not be able to choose her own marriage. Finally, it is in the interests of the family to get married. So it''s not a shame to marry such a hero as Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 547

    Outside Ye City, Zhang Xiu''s army gathered.


    The army besieged the city, even Yuan Shao in the city, also felt great pressure. In order to show his sincerity, Yuan Shao took out the order of ceding Shangjun, and announced to make peace with Zhang Xiu.


    In addition, even 3000 war horses were given to Zhang Xiu.


    It can be said that everything is in order.


    Yuan Shao''s last promise is about marriage.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting outside the city.


    During this period, the Chang''an side has sent back news that the high-ranking cadres who attacked Hedong have led the troops to withdraw.


    The rear is secure.


    While Zhang Xiu was waiting, Yuan Shao was anxious. During this period, Zhang Xiu besieged the city, and Yuan Shao was unable to divide his troops to the north, which led Gongsun Zan to capture some places, and the troops sent to the north to resist were defeated one after another.


    Gongsun Zan continued to be a murderer.


    However, even if Yuan Shao was anxious, he could not send his troops north.


    Yecheng, in the city.


    General''s mansion.


    Now Yuan Shao''s patience has been quickly worn away, because he can''t wait for the Zhen family, his situation will be worse and worse.


    Yuan Shao called Guo Tu and asked, "gongze, what''s the matter? It''s been almost eight days. For eight days, Gongsun Zan kept on attacking the front line, and news came back every day. Our territory has been falling. Why didn''t we bring Zhen Mi back? "


    Guo Tu replied: "Lord, at that time, the Zhen family was quite cooperative. They only said that they had to prepare for a few days. Therefore, I didn''t think much about my humble position. I expect that the Zhen family will come soon. "


    "Coming soon?"


    Yuan Shao said with a sneer, "what do you mean, coming soon?"


    Guo Tu smiles.


    Yuan Shao is like this. When his interests are not involved, Yuan Shao is a good talker. Once Yuan Shao''s interests are involved, the situation will not be easy to handle and will be criticized by Yuan Shao.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this moment, a servant entered.


    "We have arrived to send our relatives to the Zhen family of Zhongshan," the valet reported


    Yuan shaomao stood up and asked, "is the team outside the city?"


    "Yes


    The attendant answered with a nod.


    Yuan Shao immediately stood up and said, "let''s go. Let''s get out of the city at once."


    Guo Tu said: "Lord, are we going out of the city? According to your humble duty, you don''t have to go out of town. In case Zhang Xiu sees you, will she attack directly? "


    Yuan Shao big sleeve a brush, way: "this official is not stupid, will let him attack."


    Immediately, Yuan Shao mobilized the garrison of Yecheng and quickly came to the west gate of Yecheng with Guo Tu, Ju Shi and others. Yuan Shao let people open the gate and saw the procession of seeing off relatives.


    There are thousands of people in the Zhen family.


    There are countless dowry gifts.


    A car of dowry goods, across the official road, winding long, like a snake.


    Yuan Shao met Zhen Yao, the leader.


    Immediately, Zhen Yao dismounted to salute and said respectfully, "Zhen Yao, I''ve seen a great general."


    Yuan Shao said with a light smile, "don''t be polite. Zhen MI is my official''s adopted daughter. You and I are relatives. How can we divide each other? Now that we have arrived, we are ready to go to Zhang Xiu''s camp. "


    "Here it is


    Zhen Yao responded directly.


    He was born as a businessman, a cloth clothes, dare not say anything to Yuan Shao.


    Instead of seeing Zhen MI, Yuan Shao led the army and took the team of seeing off relatives to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    the army formed an array, and Yuan Shao asked the soldiers at the gate of the camp to inform him.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu came outside the camp.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. Deep in his eyes, there was a strong sense of killing. He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, because the people in front of him not only killed his general, but also his son.


    Yuan Shao was annoyed.


    However, the current situation is not good, yuan shaogen had no choice.


    He had to bear it first.


    Yuan shaoshen took a deep breath, suppressed his impetuous mood, and said: "Zhang Taiwei, my official''s adopted daughter, has come. The procession of seeing off relatives also arrived. I''ve delivered the man. It''s your turn to keep your promise. "


    Yuan Shao''s heart, eager to leave Zhang Xiu. As long as Zhang Xiu stayed in Yecheng, Yuan Shao was now constrained. Only when Zhang Xiu withdrew, could he spare his hand to deal with Gongsun Zan.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "general, are you sure it''s Zhen MI from Zhongshan?"


    "Sure!"


    Although Yuan Shao didn''t see anyone, he was very determined.


    This kind of thing, he expected that the Zhen family would not dare to act recklessly, otherwise his army would directly sweep the Zhen family.


    With a wave of Zhang Xiu''s hand, Huang Zhong steps forward to welcome Zhen MI and others.


    At the moment, Zhen MI is sitting in the carriage. She doesn''t see Zhang Xiu, but through Zhang Xiu''s voice, she has begun to judge her condition. Curious, Zhen Mi quietly lifts the door curtain of the carriage, revealing a gap, and then looks out.At first, I didn''t see anyone.


    After a careful look, Zhen Mi sees Zhang Xiu. At this glance, there was a touch of red glow on Zhen Mi''s pretty and charming cheek, and her heart kept beating.


    Is this Zhang Xiu?


    It is said that Zhang Xiu is resourceful and resourceful. Although she killed Li He and killed Guo Si, she is a warrior in Xiliang. Shouldn''t she be a big and strong man?


    Zhen Mi had a preliminary understanding that Zhang Xiu must be a big man. Maybe it''s round waist and broad arms, maybe it''s tiger head and tiger brain, maybe it''s five big and three thick


    But the man in front of him is rich and handsome, with sharp edges and corners. Dressed in a white robe, he rode his horse and was very handsome.


    Zhen Mi''s heart beat faster.


    She put down the curtain of the carriage with a smile on her lips. After Zhen Mi sits back, the servant girl beside her also quietly lifts the curtain of the door to look at her.


    When the maid saw Zhang Xiu''s appearance, she was even more excited and said happily: "girl, general Zhang is so handsome. It''s rare for such a handsome person to be so powerful. "


    In his heart, Zhen MI was very happy.


    Zhen MI is very clear about her marriage.


    She can''t make her own decisions. Even if she doesn''t marry Zhang Xiu, the people who will marry in the future must be rich or expensive, at least for the benefit of the family. Now married Zhang Xiu, even as Zhang Xiu''s concubine, it is nothing.


    You know, even Cao Cao''s daughter Cao Jie is only Zhang Xiu''s concubine.


    What''s more, she came from a businessman?


    Wheel! Wheel!


    Carriage slowly forward, accepted by Zhang Xiu''s army, and then fish into the army.


    Zhang Xiu saw the winding procession of seeing off relatives, saw the boxes on the carriages, and knew that it was the dowry gift of the Zhen family, which was unprecedented.


    Zhang Xiu looked, escort dowry gift people, no Yuan Shao arranged soldiers. Obviously, Yuan Shao nominally accepted Zhen Mi as his adopted daughter, but he didn''t give a cent.


    All the dowry gifts were sent by the Zhen family.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care about it.


    What Zhang Xiu cares about is the Zhen family. After getting Zhen MI, it is equivalent to getting the loyalty of the Zhen family. Zhang Xiu is equivalent to setting up a nail in Jizhou, which is the key.


    Zhang Xiu accepted people, turned to Yuan Shao and said, "general yuan, this battle between you and me is over today. Tomorrow morning, I will withdraw. I hope that the next time you and I fight, there will be the present scene


    Yuan Shao''s mouth twitched.


    And this scene.


    He is not stupid. He can never let the scene happen again.


    Yuan Shao didn''t get angry on his face, and he didn''t want to talk with Zhang xiuduo. He looked like sending off the God of plague and said, "Zhang Taiwei is about to leave Yecheng, so I won''t send him away."


    "Goodbye!"


    Yuan Shao bows to Zhang Xiu, then turns and leaves.

 Chapter 548

    The big account of the Chinese army.


    After Zhang Xiu returns with the men, she arranges for the soldiers to invite Zhen MI.


    Zhang Xiu is also curious about Zhen MI. There are so many comments on Zhen MI in later generations that they are almost mythical. Cao Zhi fell in love with Zhen MI. He once wrote Luo Shen Fu to praise Zhen Mi''s beauty. He thought that Zhen Mi''s beauty could not be achieved.


    Zhang Xiu has never met Zhen MI, but she is curious about what Zhen Mi looks like.


    After a while, the tent curtain was lifted.


    Zhen Mi strides in.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhen MI, but she was also stunned. Although she is only 28 years old, Zhen MI is tall and slender. She is at least 162 cm tall. She has a very well-developed figure, protruding forward and backward, graceful and graceful.


    Fair skin, a melon seed face is suitable for happiness and anger.


    Such a pretty woman, one more point is too fat, one less point is too thin.


    It''s amazing.


    But in a flash, Zhang Xiu returned to normal. "Sit down!" he said, waving his hand


    "Thank you


    Zhen Mi spoke directly.


    After Yuan Shao''s media protection, in fact, Zhen MI is Zhang Xiu''s woman. So her address to Zhang Xiu has changed. She knows her situation.


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you marry me this time, you know, I''ve got a real wife. As the apple of the Zhen family''s eye, are you willing to be a concubine? "


    This is Zhang Xiu''s trial.


    Zhen MI has a good skin. Zhang Xiu still needs to know her mind.


    Up to now, what kind of woman does Zhang Xiu want? He can''t just throw a woman into the backyard. It''s easy to cause a fire in the backyard.


    Zhen Mi said: "my husband is a great Han Taiwei, and I''m a merchant in the Zhen family. It''s my honor to be my husband''s concubine. What''s more, even Cao Sikong''s daughter is his husband''s concubine, let alone his concubine? "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed and said, "you will comfort yourself."


    "This is because I can see the situation clearly. What''s more, in the face of this marriage, and I don''t want to talk about whether I''m willing or not, the Zhen family can''t refuse at all," said Zhen MI


    After a pause, Zhen Mi said, "in my opinion, it''s better to be obedient than disobedient. It is said that my husband is a strong man with a big mouth, like a devil. Today, when I see my husband, I''m quite out of my expectation. I can be described as a man of high spirits and good looks. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Zhen MI is worthy of being the mother of a country in history.


    The mind is not simple.


    Emotional intelligence is also very high.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and continued: "if you marry me, how can the Zhen family get along with themselves? You know, there''s a son killing feud between my official and Yuan Shao. "


    "Yuan Tan, the son of Yuan Shao, died in the hands of my general."


    "The general of Yuan Shao was also killed."


    "Today''s Yuan Shao seems to take the initiative to seek peace and compromise. Once Yuan Shao calms down, he will fight me again. Now, under my influence, Yuan Shao is afraid of what to do with the Zhen family. He may even help the Zhen family. When Yuan Shao wants to fight me, he may take the Zhen family first. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "you can consider this relationship well?"


    With a smile in his mouth, Zhen Mi said in a soft voice, "so that my husband can know that this time I married, the Zhen family moved from Zhongshan state to Chang''an, leaving only a few people to guard the ancestral home."


    "Although the Zhen family''s many shops are still in operation, the Zhen family has moved away."


    "As a dowry this time, many of the financial affairs of the Zhen family were also sent to Chang''an. This is the sincerity of the Zhen family. I believe my husband will not treat me badly. "


    When Zhen Mi got married, she had already considered her future.


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu sighed.


    It''s an excellent thing for Zhang Xiu that the Zhen family is obedient. It is undeniable that Zhen MI is a part of the reason why Zhang Xiu agreed to marry the Zhen family, but this is only a small factor. What really impels Zhang Xiu to agree is the strength of the Zhen family.


    The Zhen family in Jizhou is a famous merchant family.


    It''s very powerful.


    With the obedience of the Zhen family, it is easier for Zhang Xiu to inquire about Jizhou news.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I need the relationship network of the Zhen family''s shops. Next, you can tell Wang Yue, the leader of the royal guards under my command, all the merchants of the Zhen family, and let him contact and arrange them."


    "Here it is


    Zhen Mi responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "give it a peach and give it a plum. I''m glad that the Zhen family is willing to move to Chang''an. I''m also willing to give the Zhen family the foundation of their family. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu takes out a book and hands it to Zhen MI.


    When Zhen Mi took it over, he saw the three big words in the booklet, and his face looked surprised. He asked, "husband, what''s the printing art


    In the book, it is recorded that engraving printing.


    This is written down by Zhang Xiu.


    In order to make the Zhen family have a foothold in Chang''an, the interests of the Zhen family should be tied to Zhang Xiu, so Zhang Xiu took out printing.Zhang Xiu looked soft and said slowly, "it''s rice paper made by papermaking. Today''s Xuan paper has become popular all over the world, and has become a must for all scholars. "


    "In the world, there are too many books to read, but there are too many. This paper technology can print books in batches. "


    "As a businessman, you should understand that if you print books in bulk and then sell them, it will be a big source of wealth. Books printed by printing are sold, and my official accounts for 40% of the net profit. "


    Zhang Xiu gave the conditions.


    He gives printing, but he has to make money.


    Otherwise, Zhang Xiu would have done nothing.


    "I''ll take the place of the Zhen family and thank my husband."


    Zhen Mi pinches the manufacturing process of printing in her hand, Liu Cheng. A touch of shock and gratitude appears on her charming face. As a businessman, especially Zhen MI, who controls the business empire of the Zhen family, she knows the profits of Xuan paper.


    All over the world, countless people use rice paper, which is the windfall of windfall profits.


    Only under Zhang Xiu can rice paper be produced.


    Now, with printing, she can print books widely and sell them. In this case, on the one hand, it is conducive to the study of scholars, on the other hand, it can also earn countless money.


    Zhen Mi''s mind turns and he knows what Zhang Xiu means. It is necessary to make money, but also to promote books widely.


    It should be beneficial to the readers.


    A gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s go down. Let''s arrange the things that should be arranged."


    "Here it is


    Zhen Mi gets up and steps down.


    It''s just that when Zhen Mi stepped down, there was a sense of sadness and loss in her heart. Her beauty, can be described as beautiful, is the real beauty. Ordinary people can''t help but want to kiss Fangze, but Zhang Xiu can''t help it.


    It''s amazing.


    This is the mind of Zhen MI.


    However, such an idea is directly suppressed by Zhen MI. She went back to her camp and looked at the printing carefully. After that, they arranged for Zhen Yao to come.


    In the name of the Zhen family, it was also Zhen Yao who made the decision.


    After all, Zhen Yao is the owner of the family.


    All things are handled by Zhen Yao, and Zhen MI is behind the scenes.


    After entering, Zhen Yao put a smile on his face and asked, "my little sister has already met Zhang Taiwei. I don''t know what kind of attitude he is?"


    Zhen Mi replied, "my husband has given the Zhen family a foothold. This is printing. My elder brother has studied it carefully. After we arrived in Chang''an, my brother searched for classic books, printed them into volumes and sold them in accordance with papermaking. After mass production, we will try to spread it to the whole Han dynasty like Xuan paper. "


    "What kind of printing?"


    Zhen Yao took over the manufacturing process of printing and read it carefully.


    The manufacturing process is detailed.


    When Zhen Yao finished reading it, he suddenly realized. As a matter of fact, printing is not very complicated. The emphasis is on the materials and how to print and typeset. Once all of them are written, they can be seen at a glance.


    But if you don''t know, you don''t know.


    It''s a little transparent.

 Chapter 549

    The night was dark and the surroundings were black as ink.


    In the barracks, it''s as bright as day.


    A torch burning, dispelling the darkness, the whole camp is very bright.


    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu is dealing with the military affairs in her hands. When all things are finished, Zhang Xiu is ready to have a rest. Just before the break, Zhang Xiu arranges for someone to take Zhen Mi to the camp.


    Zhen MI is graceful.


    Although it''s 28 years old, it''s a wonderful thing. Facing Zhang Xiu, Zhen Mi knows what will happen next, so she is a little shy. She sat beside the bed, looking at the side of Zhang Xiu, slightly at a loss.


    Rao is smart, but in such a thing. A big girl with yellow flowers is inevitably shy.


    Zhang Xiu is an old hand in this field.


    Zhang Xiu talks to adjust the atmosphere. They talk and laugh from the embarrassment they just met. The atmosphere is harmonious. After the two sides are in harmony, Zhang Xiu takes Zhen Mi''s waist and kisses her directly.


    Zhen Mi''s action is raw, but she also responds.


    As the saying goes, dry wood meets fire.


    Two people pester, gradually, then gradually into a better situation, only to hear the tent in the light of breathing.


    I don''t know when it will disappear.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    When Zhang Xiu wakes up, she sees that Zhen Mi hasn''t woken up yet. She doesn''t wake up Zhen MI. She gets up and puts on a thin dress. Then she goes out of the camp and does morning exercises in the camp.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s habit.


    The cold winter and the heat never stopped.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength today, he can still feel that his own strength is growing a little bit. Although the growth rate has slowed down substantially, the strength is growing after all.


    This is also a good thing for Zhang Xiu.


    After a set of boxing, Zhang Xiu wipes the sweat on her body. When she turns back to the camp, she is surprised to see Zhen Mi standing at the gate of the camp, watching him do morning exercises.


    Seeing Zhen MI, Zhang Xiu has a smile in her mouth. Since then, there has been another woman around him.


    That is Zhen MI.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, Zhen Mi said, "my husband, let''s have dinner. I have some simple meat cakes prepared."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu sat down and looked at Zhen MI, who was waiting on one side, and said, "you also sit down and eat together."


    "No!"


    Zhen Mi said, "the rules must not be abolished. I will serve my husband. After eating, I will eat it no later."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t have such rules here. Come on, sit down and eat together. "


    When Zhen Mi sees Zhang Xiu''s look, she is used to observing her words and looks. Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s manner was determined and serious, he really asked her to sit down, so he did not hesitate to sit down and eat with Zhang Xiu.


    After breakfast, Zhen MI and Zhang Xiu leave with their attendants. At this moment, there was a strange feeling in Zhen Mi''s heart. She and Zhang Xiu, not many feelings, after all, just meet.


    To Zhang Xiu''s liking, it is only Zhang Xiu''s handsome appearance, rich spirit and excellent intelligence. More, but not, after all, not together.


    But now, having dinner with her husband surprised Zhen MI.


    When she was in the Zhen family, what Zhen Mi saw as a child was that her mother always served her father to eat. After my father finished eating, my mother was alone in the back kitchen, and the simple meal was over.


    After his father died, the second brother Zhen Yan took charge of the family. At that time, the second brother''s wife was responsible for preparing meals. After the second brother, mother and others ate, they began to eat.


    She was also affected.


    She thinks that she should serve Zhang Xiu. But I feel different when I eat with Zhang Xiu.


    There''s a sense of being respected.


    Although this is only a small detail, Zhen Mi''s heart is full of joy.


    It''s a good start.


    Zhen Mi goes back to her camp and starts packing up to leave.


    The army set out and left in great numbers.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army left, Yuan Shao finally felt relieved that the sword hanging on his head had moved away. At this time, Yuan Shao was able to mobilize his forces to deal with Gongsun Zan in the north.


    The army is on its way to dangyin county.


    Yang Xiu followed Zhang Xiu and said: "Lord, we are going to leave this time. Gongsun Zan is about to face all the troops of Yuan Shao. I''m afraid Gongsun Zan will never get any more benefits. "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "if Gongsun Zan stops fighting with Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan himself will be able to stand firmly in Youzhou."


    "After all, in the first battle of dangyin County, we defeated too many yuan troops, which greatly weakened Yuan Shao''s troops. At least in a short period of time, Yuan Shao did not have the strength to annex Gongsun Zan. "


    "Of course, if Gongsun Zan has a hard head and wants to fight with Yuan Shao, it''s Gongsun Zan''s own business. It has nothing to do with us. We united with Gongsun Zan to send troops, and there was no agreement that we must destroy Yuan Shao, or that we must achieve any goal. "Zhang xiudao: "how Gongsun Zan does it has little to do with us."


    Yang xiudao: "my Lord is wise!"


    In fact, Zhang Xiu is not optimistic about Gongsun Zan.


    Gongsun Zan lacks toughness.


    If the foundation of Gongsun Zan were handed over to Liu Bei, it would be another scene. Gongsun Zan had a counselor and an army. He was strong and had a good hand, but he played stinking.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t like such a person.


    However, it is also good to let Gongsun Zan restrain Yuan Shao. In a short period of time, Gongsun Zan was in Youzhou and Yuan Shao was in Jizhou to check and balance each other, so that Yuan Shao''s strength could not be over expanded.


    This is good for Zhang Xiu.


    After all, it has been less than three years since the development of Zhang embroidery. Zhang Xiu needs time to develop. When Zhang Xiu wins Liangzhou, he can attack and defend. With a stable rear, the situation will be different.


    Da! Da!


    At this time, a rush of footsteps came from the front.


    But Wang is more and more.


    The expression on Wang Yue''s face was very serious. He reported: "my Lord, Chen Cang is urgent."


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, she quickly scanned it. Her face was cold and solemn, and she said in a deep voice: "it''s really surprising that Zhang Lu of Hanzhong, who has never been involved in the external war, should join forces with Han Sui and Ma Chao to attack Guanzhong and face Chencang. This time, it''s really exciting. "


    Wang Yue said: "Hanzhong is located in a remote area. Although the humble position arranged for the royal guards to lurk, it is far away and Hanzhong has no foundation, which leads to the lag of information. If the royal guards are not responsible, please punish them. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "there''s nothing to punish. No wonder the royal guards. When the order goes on, the army will retreat at full speed and return to Chang''an to solve the Chencang crisis. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue went to inform immediately.


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, I think that as long as we withdraw, or the news of our defeat to Yuan Shao comes back, the crisis in Chencang and even the attack of Zhanglu in Hanzhong will be resolved."


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Pang Tong replied: "the reason is very simple. No matter Zhang Lu, Han Sui or Ma Chao, they are not very strong. The reason why they dare to attack Guanzhong is that the Lord and Yuan Shao fought each other, and even senior cadres attacked Hedong. That''s why they dare to invade. If the news that the Lord defeated Yuan Shao comes back, and the Lord returns triumphantly, they will retreat. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "what Shiyuan said is true."


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Pang Tong''s analysis, but the army still retreats at full speed.


    After the army entered Hanoi County, there was no delay along the way. Zhang Xiu didn''t even stay in Hanoi County, but had a talk with Hu Zhao when she passed huaixian county.


    Now it''s May.


    In Hanoi County, Hu Zhao had his first successful career.


    Hu Zhao recruited a large number of talented people and then arranged to work in various counties.


    Although this matter raised waves, it was calmed down by Hu Zhao.


    After all, there were countless people who benefited. Moreover, there were few real families in Hanoi County, and few people who could resist Hu Zhao. Therefore, the first time to learn from others was successfully carried out.


    Zhang Xiu praised Hu Zhao for this and encouraged him to continue to pursue his career and form a large-scale and orderly constitution as soon as possible. After having a talk with Hu Zhao, Zhang Xiu did not stay and continued on her way with the army.

 Chapter 550

    In late May, the army led by Zhang Xiu returned to Chang''an. The army stationed in the city barracks down, Zhang Xiu straight back to Taiwei house. He first placed Zhen MI and introduced him to Huang Yueying and Cao Jie.


    After that, Zhang Xiu ordered to summon the assistant officials of Taiwei''s residence, such as the six ministers, and the generals of Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, to discuss the war in Chencang county.


    As Pang Tong infers.


    When the news of Zhang Xiu''s victory came back, Zhang Lu, who was attacking Chencang, directly withdrew and returned to Hanzhong.


    Even Han Sui and Ma Chao would retreat directly. Not to mention, even if Han Sui once cheated Ma Chao, Ma Chao''s strength was limited, so Ma Chao had to unite with Han Sui to attack Zhang Xiu.


    But they all know that Zhang Xiu is stronger now.


    Much stronger than before.


    Under this premise, as long as Zhang Xiu withdraws, they are not Zhang Xiu''s opponents, so they withdraw decisively. After hearing the war situation in Guanyu Chencang County, Zhang Xiu learned that she was attacked this time, but there was no chaos.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in today''s situation, first, we can easily go south and annex Jingzhou; second, the current rampage of Han Sui and Ma Chao in Liangzhou has become a hidden danger. Do you want to attack immediately. What''s your opinion on these two matters? "


    Li Ru said: "Lord, I think that under the current situation, we should solve Han Sui and Ma Chao first. Take these two people, the rear can be stable. "


    Liu Ba shook his head and said, "Lord, I''m against it."


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Liu Ba, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, said: "my Lord has been fighting for years. He has consumed a lot of food and money."


    "Money is not bad."


    "After all, there is Xuan paper, and the Pang family and Huang family also give their full support. Even the Pang family and Huang family have tried their best to distribute the profits to the Lord to meet the needs of the army."


    "But food is hard."


    "Even if the Lord seized 200000 stone grains when he fought with Yuan Shao a few days ago. But it''s not much food for the Lord''s army today. "


    "Under the command of the whole Lord, we can''t be self-sufficient in our own food."


    Liu BA''s eyes twinkled and said, "because most of the grain has to be bought from Jingzhou. Even if today''s food can support a year and a half, the Lord needs more and more food and money. "


    "We must prepare for a rainy day!"


    "Otherwise, the situation of food shortage will lead to unimaginable consequences."


    "After all, there is very little food and money that the counties can turn in for the time being. Under such a premise, if Jingzhou is won, the Lord will have a granary, and he will not be short of food, and he will not have to worry about insufficient food and grass. "


    Liu Ba solemnly said: "the Lord''s people are waiting for a lot of waste, but money can flow. The problem is that in troubled times, money may not be able to buy food. This is the most difficult problem. So I think that we should take Jingzhou first and solve the food crisis. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she frowned.


    Food is a big problem. If the food crisis cannot be solved, Zhang Xiu''s expansion will be stopped.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu didn''t care about food, because from the beginning, with the support of Pang family, Cai family, Kuai family and other big families, Zhang Xiu continued to expand and became stronger and stronger.


    Today, Liu Bayi mentioned that Zhang Xiucai had come back to her senses.


    It turned out that there was a shortage of food.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I knew that earlier. When I went on strike with Yuan Shao, I should let yuan shaoduo pay for food. Yuan Shao is sitting in Jizhou, where he has plenty of food and grass. If he is asked to compensate for 300000 or 400000 stones, he will be able to take it out. "


    Xu Shu said: "this is the end of the matter. Regret is of no help. My Lord, I also suggest that we solve the problem of food and grass first and take Jingzhou. The Lord has always been steady, solid foundation, in order to steadily expand. If we take Jingzhou, we will have enough food to prevent instability in the rear. "


    The rest of the people spoke.


    Some support the capture of Jingzhou first, while others support the capture of Liangzhou first.


    There was a lot of discussion.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Jia Xu and said in a deep voice, "Wenhe, what do you think?"


    Jia has yet to comment.


    He plays an important role under Zhang Xiu.


    Jia Xu considered things, and he was the best at seeking good fortune and avoiding bad fortune, and he was the best at weighing the pros and cons. Hearing Zhang Xiu''s inquiry, he stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "my Lord, whether we attack Liangzhou first or Jingzhou first, we have no fault in principle."


    "It''s just two options, one priority."


    "There are two problems in this matter."


    "First, the grain we have now, including the 200000 shekels of military grain we just seized from Yuan Shao, is sufficient at least this year. In particular, Liu Ba has said that it is enough for a year and a half. All in all, there will be no shortage of food in the next year. "


    "Second, Liangzhou is not easy to capture. When you take Liangzhou, it will be easy to attack Jingzhou. After all, the Lord is widely distributed in Jingzhou and supported by all the major families, so he can easily win. ""Third, Liu Biao was promised to go south in the second half of the year. It''s only may now, and with the Lord''s strength and speed, it will take three or four months at most to win Liangzhou. "


    Jia Xu said, "so the humble view is to attack Liangzhou first."


    "Of course, the reason why I agree to attack Liangzhou first is not the three reasons just now. The reason is that winning Jingzhou has exposed the power of the Lord. At that time, all the princes in the world will know that the Lord is powerful. If the Lord wants to encircle Ma Chao and others, he will be constrained. "


    "Neither Yuan Shao nor Cao Cao will allow the Lord to destroy Ma Chao and others."


    "In today''s situation, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have their own constraints. They are busy with their own affairs. After that, because of the previous layout, no matter how Yuan Shao and Cao Cao stopped them, they could not stop them. "


    Jia Xu said: "therefore, I suggest you go to Liangzhou first."


    When the words came out, there was silence.


    Everyone stopped talking. It was quiet.


    Jia Xu''s reason is quite sufficient, and has made people take it orally. Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, Zhang Yan and others, who are new to Zhang Xiu, look at Jia Xu with great respect.


    It''s Jia Xu!


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was very calm and said, "Jia Shangshu has a point. In that case, we sent troops to the west to attack Liangzhou and wipe out Han Sui and Ma Chao."


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Wang Yue stood up and gave an answer.


    Zhang Xiu said: "immediately mobilize the royal guards to inquire about Liangzhou news. When our army enters Liangzhou, we must get detailed information. "


    "Here!"


    Wang Yue answers with a fist.


    The more confident the royal guards are. Because today''s royal guards are not what they used to be.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Zhao Yun. She said in a deep voice, "Zhao Yun!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhao Yun stood up and gave an answer.

 Chapter 551

    The relationship between Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu has long been spread in the army. Everyone knows that Zhao Yun is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother. This fellow brother is no less than the sworn brother, let alone the brother.


    Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu of this layer of relationship, is equivalent to let Zhao Yun open plug-in, can go smoothly. Of course, the generals and soldiers in the army also witnessed Zhao Yun''s power.


    Zhao Yun, with one shot per person, pressed Yuan Shao''s army and was invincible.


    Zhang xiuqiang!


    Zhao Yun is also strong!


    Strength, as well as the relationship between Zhang Xiu, everyone knows that Zhao Yun''s future is limitless. The most important thing is that anyone who comes into contact with Zhao Yun finds that Zhao Yun is extremely powerful, but he is not proud of his talent or self-identity. On the contrary, he is modest and polite.


    It''s hard to pick a thorn.


    Zhao Yun knows his identity and is easy to be criticized. But Zhao Yun is not affected, he believes that his strength, will eventually conquer everyone, let everyone recognize him.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if you attack Yuan Shao in this battle, you can capture Yuan Tan alive and kill Chunyu Qiong with great merit. You are the leader of Baima Yicong. Now Gongsun Zan''s Baima Yicong has already dissipated. I will worship you as the general of the defeated army and set up the white horse Yicong. You should go to Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping for help. Baima Yicong is positioned as a light cavalry, flexible combat. "


    "I''ll take orders from you


    Zhao Yun answers with a fist.


    He went back to the table, and it was only from today on that he came into everyone''s sight.


    Chen Dao hears Zhang Xiu''s arrangement for Zhao Yun, but he has some thoughts in his heart. Zhao Yun''s army is light cavalry, and his Langya battalion also has light cavalry. However, up to now, Chen is not only limited to cavalry, but also infantry. It is a diversified service.


    He walked in front of Zhao Yun.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned again and fell on Gao Lan, saying: "Gao Lan, listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Gao Lan also stood up.


    When he was in dangyin County, he had been subordinate to Zhang Xiu and had been in her army. It''s just that there is no clear arrangement for his official position, which was shelved before.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Gao Lan is more loyal and has excellent ability to lead troops. From today on, my official worships Gao Lan as the general of Dangkou and the Deputy General of Zhang Yan to assist Zhang Yan in commanding the conventional army."


    "I''ll do it


    Gao Lan responds directly.


    It''s more comfortable for him to serve under Zhang Yan''s command. The reason is very simple. He and Zhang knew each other. When they worked together, Gaolan would not be constrained or unaccustomed.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes finally fell on Zhang Yan and said, "Zhang Yan!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhang Yan stood up, looking excited.


    He is also obedient to Zhang Xiu. Since entering Chang''an, Zhang Yan''s heart is both excited and uneasy. In Chang''an, it depends on how Zhang Xiu arranges him.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I will worship you as general Jianwei, and set up a black mountain army, which is 30000, to command an army alone."


    "I''ll take orders from you


    Zhang Yan answers with a fist.


    As a man who has been subordinate to Zhang Xiu for some time, Zhang Yan knows that there are many services under Zhang Xiu''s command, such as the flying bear army and the Langya camp. Now he is the general of Jianwei, and he even sets up the black mountain army, which is juxtaposed with others.


    However, Zhang Yan is clear.


    He is the weakest of many arms.


    When it comes to real strength, the strength of the black mountain army under Zhang Yan''s command is far less than that of the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army. In addition, Zhang Yan''s own military record is not as good as Gan Ning, Huang Zhong and others.


    Even if the new Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan can not compare, after all, the other side is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother.


    It was a very close relationship.


    After getting Zhang Xiu''s order, Zhang Yan said again, "Lord, I have a request for your permission."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhang Yan said: "although I am in charge of the Heishan army, I am not very proficient in marching and fighting. I can only be regarded as proficient. Therefore, I sincerely ask my Lord to arrange another military adviser to help me deal with military affairs. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles from the corner of her mouth.


    Zhang Yan is not stupid!


    This man knows how to deal with himself.


    Zhang Yan said that she didn''t understand, so she asked Zhang Xiu to arrange a person. In this way, she asked Zhang Xiu to arrange a person to go to the army, so that Zhang Xiu could control the black mountain army.


    This is where Zhang Yan takes the initiative to turn in power, and is also where Zhang Yan is smart.


    Zhang xiuhan said, "your request is approved by me."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, is there a suitable candidate now?"


    "Yes!"


    Xu Shu arched his hand and said, "just a few days ago, Kuai Qi came to Chang''an to report on his work. He managed Nanyang County with outstanding achievements. He believed that Kuai Qi could serve as the commander of the Heishan army. "


    Kuai Qi was first assigned to Zhang Xiu by the Kuai family. With the continuous improvement of Zhang Xiu''s official position, Kuai Qi was finally appointed as the prefect of Nanyang County.


    Now Kuai Qi is working in Chang''an, and his ability is quite good."Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    After arranging Zhang Yan''s affairs, Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and said once again: "this time, she launched a campaign against Han Sui and Ma Chao, and sent Zhang Yan''s regular army, Huang Zhong''s flying bear army and Chen Dao''s Langya camp to fight. The liehu army, commander in chief of Ganning, is in charge of Chang''an and coordinates with all sides. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong, Chen Zhi and others should go down together.


    Gan Ning''s face showed an expression of reluctance, but he also understood that he could not fight every time. He always took part in the war. Someone had to stay in Chang''an to coordinate the four sides.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "this time I went west, I was still accompanied by Pang Tong, Yang Xiu and Sima Yi. The rest of them stayed in Chang''an to maintain the daily operation of government affairs. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Everyone knows the contributions made by Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Yang Xiu.


    It''s just that no one is jealous.


    Zhang Xiu also arranged the reward for the previous war. After all the things were arranged properly, she let the people prepare. After three days of rest, the army sent troops to the west to attack Han Sui.


    Zhang Xiu goes back to the backyard to see her son.


    At this time, the little Zhang Cheng, with a tiger head and a tiger brain, had completely opened up. Although the child is only four or five months old, he grows very fast and can crawl around with his mouth babbling.


    Now the whole family is around Zhang Chengzhuan.


    The original Huang Yueying was still thinking about something about the equipment. Now that Xiao Zhang Cheng is here, Huang Yueying can''t get away from her completely and is completely fettered by Xiao Zhang Cheng.


    When Zhang Xiu came back, the three girls got along well.


    In this regard, Zhang Xiu is happy to see its success.


    He didn''t want any dirty things to happen in the backyard, and he tried his best to get wet.


    After three days'' rest at home, Zhang Xiu completely relaxed.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, in the morning.


    After eating breakfast, Zhang Xiu puts on her helmet, takes Wang Yue and others to leave Taiwei''s house and goes straight to the barracks. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the barracks, everything was ready.


    Huang Zhong, Zhang jaw and Chen Dao, all in place. With Zhang Xiu''s command, the army attacked.


    This time, the army of Huang Zhong, Chen Dao and Zhang Ya had a total of 70000 elite soldiers. This kind of army left Chang''an, mighty, quickly on its way, all the way west to Liangzhou.


    When Zhang Xiu sent out troops, the news began to spread and soon spread to Liangzhou.

 Chapter 552

    Liangzhou, Hanyang county.


    Guzang county.


    This is the place where Han Sui occupied. He was united with Ma Chao and attacked Chencang county. However, Han Sui was helpless. As soon as he attacked Chencang County, he heard that Zhang Xiu had defeated Yuan Shao''s 100000 troops and returned triumphantly.


    The news shocked all the soldiers.


    There was an uproar in the army.


    One by one, the attacking soldiers were scared out of their wits and didn''t want to fight.


    You know, the last time Zhang Xiu and Han Sui fought, Han Sui was unable to resist. In particular, Zhang Xiu became more and more brave in the subsequent war. It can be said that she was invincible. In a short time, she calmed Guanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength made Han Sui''s Xiliang army cold.


    This time, Han Sui sent out troops to publicize that Zhang Xiu was attacked by Yuan Shao, and Zhang Xiu could not resist. In addition, Hanoi County, there are also high-ranking offensive news.


    Under such a premise, Han Sui''s soldiers are fighting with high morale.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiulian and Yuan Shao can beat each other.


    You know, Yuan Shao is one hundred thousand people.


    But still failed.


    This scares Han Sui''s soldiers. Even Han Sui himself laments in his heart. Is it not Zhang Xiu who is in heaven?


    Han Sui had no choice but to withdraw with Ma Chao.


    Longxian, the city has a general''s house.


    This is hansui''s residence. Now hansui is back. He has no intention to enter the army, so he plays all day, drinks wine and watches the singer dance. It''s a happy life.


    In the hall, the sound of silk and bamboo comes one after another.


    The singers are graceful and dazzled.


    Han Sui sat on the throne with a cheerful face, shaking his head and immersing himself in it.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the hall, there was a cry of soldiers.


    A soldier rushed in with a look of panic.


    With a plop, the soldier knelt down on the ground and reported: "general, it''s not good. Zhang Xiu is going to Liangzhou to kill 70 thousand soldiers. Now, the news has spread in the streets. "


    Brush!


    Han Sui''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu killed her.


    You know, now Han Sui is in Liangzhou, and there are no 70000 elite soldiers under his command. Zhang Xiu mobilized 70000 elite soldiers in a concerted effort to completely pacify Liangzhou.


    Han Sui''s face became gloomy gradually. He waved his hand to let the singer and musician back down and said in a deep voice, "go and invite Ma Chao to come at once!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Today''s Ma Chao, Chen Bing is also in Longxian city. Because there was no peace between the two sides.


    Today''s Ma Chao, strength is not weak. After all, after Ma Chao returned to Liangzhou, he quickly convened Ma Teng''s old headquarters and integrated many forces. In the army of Xiliang, especially in Liangzhou, the strong were worshipped, so no one dared to oppose Ma Chao''s unification of the army.


    Under Ma Chao''s command, there are nearly 30000 elite troops. But a large number of soldiers consume a lot of food every day. On the one hand, it was Ma Chao who raised the food himself. After all, Ma Chao occupied quite a lot of places. On the other hand, Han Sui supported some of them.


    Han Sui now has no less than 40000 troops. Its actual strength is slightly stronger than that of Ma Chao. Before Ma Chao came, Han Sui had called Zhuang Ze, the counselor around him.


    This is Han Sui''s new recruit.


    Zhuang Ze enters the hall, bows to Han Sui and asks: "the Lord summoned him, but for Zhang Xiu''s sake?"


    Han Sui said, "apart from this, what else can we do?"


    Zhuang Ze''s face was very serious and said slowly: "there are three strategies for Zhang Xiu''s killing."


    "Speak quickly."


    Han Sui''s face showed a happy smile. Now, he is worried that there is no way to resist Zhang Xiu. He is very happy that Zhuang Ze can provide good strategies.


    Zhuang Ze replied: "first, immediately arrange for Ma Chao to send troops to Longguan. Longguan is the gateway of Liangzhou. If Zhang Xiu can''t break through Longguan, she can''t enter Liangzhou. "


    "In particular, Longguan is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Ma Chao has a total of 30000 elite soldiers. With these 30000 elite soldiers, he will be able to resist Zhang Xiu. Even if Ma Chao can''t keep watch, it can greatly weaken Zhang Xiu. "


    "At that time, even if Zhang Xiu still has troops to kill, we are not afraid of Zhang Xiu."


    Zhuang Ze talks with a bright face.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Han Sui had a bright smile on his face. He praised Zhuang Ze''s suggestion.


    Let Ma Chao to block the knife, Han Sui is willing to. However, Han Sui has to consider how to make Ma Chao willing to guard Longguan, which is what he wants to ponder.


    Zhuangze continued: "second, widely publicize the killing of Qiang people by Zhang Xiu, and describe Zhang Xiu as a person who discriminates against Qiang people and wants to exterminate them. Only on this premise can we arouse the indignation of the Qiang people. "After a pause, Zhuang Ze said: "although there are countless Han people in Liangzhou, there are also Qiang tribes of different sizes. These Qiang people are brave and have strong fighting capacity. With the help of Zhang Xiu''s pressure and the cohesion of the Qiang people, the Lord can fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "Not bad!"


    Han then nodded again.


    Although Qiang people respect Han Sui, many tribes obey him. But in fact, most of the tribes did their own things, and did not really follow Han Sui''s instructions.


    When Zhang Xiu wanted to kill Qiang people, countless Qiang people would hate Zhang Xiu.


    This is helpful for Han Sui to gather strength.


    Zhuang Ze once again said: "third, recruit again, recruit soldiers from Qiang and Han people. With the second foundation, it is easy for the Lord to recruit soldiers. As long as the Lord''s army is strong and strong, it is not difficult to resist Zhang Xiu. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"


    Han Sui caressed his hand and said, "what Mr. Zhuang said is very true."


    Zhuang Ze smiles and looks indifferent.


    It''s not hard.


    Time is not long, a burst of rapid footsteps, from outside the hall. A tall, handsome young man strode in.


    It''s Ma Chao.


    Today''s Ma Chao is more dignified, and his eyes are more sharp. In the year when he returned to Liangzhou, he recruited a large number of soldiers and trained them, which made the soldiers under his command more cohesive and effective.


    Ma Chao''s heart, Jiji camp want revenge.


    Before that, the news that he did not want to fight back was that he did not want to fight back.


    In the end, Ma Chao retreated.


    Ma Chao now, also get news, know Zhang Xiu to Liangzhou to kill.


    Ma Chao''s heart was full of excitement and excitement. As soon as he entered Longxian County, he said: "father-in-law, Zhang Xiu is coming. It''s time for us to send troops. When Zhang Xiu was killed by 70000 soldiers, it was obvious that she wanted to destroy us completely. "


    Today, Ma Chao calls Han Sui his father-in-law because he married Han Sui''s daughter.


    This is to strengthen bilateral relations.


    Rao is so, in fact, Ma Chao''s heart is also extremely afraid and vigilant of Han Sui.


    He didn''t trust Han Sui.


    Han then nodded and said: "Meng Qi, look at the momentum of Zhang Xiu. He did have the heart to kill me. But for the battle with Zhang Xiu, after careful consideration, I think we should focus on defense first. "


    "Longguan is the gateway of Liangzhou."


    "Longguan is easy to defend, but difficult to attack. We only need to guard Longguan, and we can resist the enemy outside Longguan."


    Han Sui said: "so my idea is that you personally lead 30000 elite soldiers to Longguan to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. As long as Zhang Xiu can''t take Longguan, we are not in danger. "


    Ma Chao frowned and asked, "don''t we attack?"


    "No!"


    Han Sui shook his head and said, "we will not take the offensive strategy for the time being."


    When Ma Chao heard this, he frowned. He didn''t agree with Han Sui''s suggestion, because under the current situation, he thought that Han Sui and his troops could unite to fight against Zhang Xiu.


    But Ma Chao thought about it and had an idea in his heart. He said, "Ma Chao understands the arrangement of my father-in-law. Next, I will send troops to Longguan. But we don''t have much food in our army. I''m afraid my father-in-law needs to supplement it. "


    "No problem!"


    Han Sui said directly: "I immediately ordered to transfer 30000 stone grain and Yiying''s weapons to you."


    "Thank you, father-in-law!"


    Ma Chao raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and left.


    Han Sui looks at Ma Chao''s back as he leaves. He is quite proud in his heart. He thinks that Ma Chao went to Longguan because he was young and vigorous, and also because he was eager to revenge.


    He''s not in such a hurry.


    First use Ma Chao, weaken the strength of Zhang Xiu, and then fight with Zhang Xiu not too late.

 Chapter 553

    After leaving Han Sui''s camp, Ma Chao left the military camp and went straight back to his camp.


    He had a look of awe on his face.


    Back to the Chinese army, Ma Chao arranged for the soldiers to invite pound.


    When pound was seated, Ma Chao said, "Ling Ming, I just got the news that Zhang Xiu has raised 70000 soldiers to kill us. When Han Sui got the news, he let us enter Longguan to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Pound said in a deep voice: "Lord, Han Sui''s action is to let us resist Zhang Xiu. Only with our 30000 elite soldiers sticking to Longguan and fighting with Zhang Xiu, our strength will definitely be weakened in the end. At the same time, Han Sui can also use our strength to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. He''s hiding in the rear and taking advantage of it. "


    "That''s the truth."


    Ma Chao nodded and said, "to call you here is to ask your opinion."


    "There''s no way to be humble," pound said


    Ma Chao''s eyes narrowed and said, "I have a way."


    "What can I do?" pound asked


    With a smile on his face, Ma Chao replied: "my father was captured by Zhang Xiu and has been in custody. We arrive at Longguan and fight with Zhang Xiu. I''m afraid my father will be taken out to threaten me and let me withdraw from Longguan. You know, last time, my father held me back. Today, it''s probably the same


    "What does Lord mean?" said pound


    Ma Chao replied: "after we arrived at Longguan, if Zhang Xiu took out her father''s threat and ordered us to leave Longguan, she would release her father. Then, we will withdraw from Longguan and let Zhang Xiu conquer Longguan and change our father back. "


    "Ah


    When pound heard this, he looked surprised and incredible.


    This was beyond Pound''s expectation.


    Pound said, "Lord, if you lose Longguan, I''m afraid Han Sui will be severely criticized here."


    Ma Chao''s face was solemn and said: "although Han Sui is my father-in-law, Han Sui has always wanted to use me. This time, he asked me to go to Longguan."


    "I know Han Sui''s intention."


    "He wanted to hide in the rear, but I didn''t let him. I let Zhang Xiu''s army invade Longguan. Han Sui is in a hurry. He will unite with us instead of pushing us to resist. "


    "It''s good for us."


    Ma Chao continued: "only when Han Sui and Han Sui join forces, can we have a chance to fight against Zhang Xiu or even wipe out Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, our troops will be exhausted in Longguan, and Han Sui may not send troops either. So my idea is to withdraw from Longguan and let Zhang Xiu conquer it. "


    Pound worried: "the Lord''s consideration does have certain benefits. But after Longguan was lost, for the overall situation, we lost the door to resist Zhang Xiu. There is no Longguan against Zhang Xiu, which is extremely unfavorable to Liangzhou. "


    Ma Chao''s big sleeve flicked and said: "Ling Ming, I don''t care about resistance and so on. I don''t care about the overall situation. What I want is revenge."


    "Han Sui wants to dominate Xiliang. He always wants to be king in Xiliang, but I don''t think so."


    "I just want revenge."


    "As long as I can get revenge, I will do anything."


    Ma Chao bit his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu is arrogant and arrogant. In the past, I was defeated by Zhang Xiu. Today, I need to be ashamed. In order to defeat Zhang Xiu, we have to let Zhang Xiu enter Longguan first so that Han Sui can join us. Otherwise, there will be no chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    Pound was silent when he heard it.


    Ma Chao''s words have already reached this point, and pound didn''t persuade him any more. As soon as his words changed, he suddenly said, "master, once you change back to the old master, what are you going to do then?"


    Ma Teng is Ma Chao''s father after all.


    Once Ma Teng is replaced, a sharp sword is inserted on Ma Chao''s head.


    This will hold Ma Chao back.


    Ma Chao laughed at pound''s question and said, "Ling Ming, in fact, your concern is totally unnecessary. In today''s army, it''s all my direct line, not my father''s direct line. When father returned to the army, he should eat and drink. As for the others, father doesn''t have to be involved. This is not only for his good, but also for my good. Everyone is safe. "


    "My Lord is wise," said pound


    Ma Chao waved his hand and said, "go and mobilize troops. Get ready to fight. "


    "Here it is


    Pound turned and left.


    Ma Chao left the barracks and went to a house in the city.


    In the city, and his house.


    In the house, there is also Han Sui''s daughter, Ma Chao''s wife. Although Han Sui''s appearance is not outstanding, Han Sui''s daughter is tall, with slender legs, charming appearance and gentle temperament. She can be called Ma Chao''s good wife.


    The most important thing is that after Han married Ma Chao, he thought about Ma Chao everywhere.


    It''s a well-known truth to marry a chicken with a chicken and a dog with a dog.When Ma Chao saw Han, his face was full of tenderness and favor, and he said with a smile: "madam, Zhang Xiu has invaded Liangzhou. I''m going to Longguan garrison, you a person at home, to mind safety, don''t go out at will. Today''s Longxian, will soon fall into the flames of war. The situation is not optimistic


    Han''s charming face, a worried look, said: "husband, so dangerous, you don''t go to Longguan in person. Did your father order you to go


    Ma Chao laughed and didn''t say much.


    "I''m going to see my father and ask him to cancel the order," Han said. There are many powerful generals under my father''s command. Just let them go. Why do I have to ask my husband to go? Husband, don''t go. "


    At this time, Han is very eager.


    Ma Chao held out his hand and said, "madam, you don''t have to persuade me. Although my father-in-law ordered me, I did it voluntarily. Don''t worry, I will pay attention to safety. Are you worried about my martial arts? Don''t worry, I will come back safely. "


    Han nodded solemnly and said, "my husband must come back safely."


    "Don''t worry!"


    Ma Chao looks at the nervous Han family and feels warm inside.


    He is not valued by his father, not loved by his father, his everything, is his own hands, in the battlefield to fight. Here in Han''s family, although Han Sui arranged the marriage, but Han''s everywhere toward him, everywhere for his sake, let Ma Chao is very moved.


    Ma Chao likes Han like this.


    This is his Han family.


    Ma Chao hugged Han, released his hand after a while, turned and strode away. At this moment, Ma Chao has a fetter in his heart. He is no longer Ma Chao who used to cross the battlefield.


    He has people to care about.

 Chapter 554

    Zhang Xiu took the army on her way. When the army arrived in Chencang County, Wang Yue had already sent back the news.


    Longguan, Ma Chao stationed.


    Under Ma Chao''s command, there are 30000 elite soldiers.


    Thirty thousand elite troops are stationed in Longguan, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack, so it is not easy to attack by force. However, even if it is difficult to attack, Zhang Xiu will not stop here, still want to go.


    In this war, Liangzhou must be won.


    Not only that, but also Zhang Xiu must be quick, to solve the problem of Liangzhou in the shortest time. The news sent back by the royal guards also included Ma Chao''s marriage to Han Sui''s daughter. Moreover, Han Sui''s presence in Longxian county was full of 40000 talents.


    Zhang Xiu read all the things, thinking about coping strategies in her heart.


    At noon, the army stopped cooking.


    Zhang Xiu took the time to send someone to call Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Yang Xiu. In addition, Zhang Xiu also sent for Yan Xing. Because after Yan Xing surrendered to Zhang Xiu, he also worked in Chang''an.


    When Han Sui was attacked, Zhang Xiu took Yan Xing with him. After all, Yan Xing knew about Liangzhou.


    In front of several people, Zhang Xiu talked about the situation of Han Sui and Ma Chao, and said in a deep voice: "our army has arrived in Chencang. Not far west, it will enter Hanyang County of Liangzhou. At that time, we will arrive at Longguan soon. Before the war with Ma Chao, the general policy of the war should be determined. What do you think of the war? "


    Along the way, Yang Xiu, Sima Yi and Pang Tong were all thinking about it.


    Among the three, Yang Xiu is older, but the difference is not too much. Three people follow Zhang Xiu, that heart has already faintly had competition, all hope to come to the fore.


    Yang Xiuse said: "I understand that Ma Teng is under the Lord''s command. Now Ma Chao is in Longguan, so he can use Ma Teng to coerce Ma Chao, and take it as a breakthrough to see if Ma Chao can be ordered to surrender through Ma Teng. "


    "No way."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and replied: "in the battle of Chen Cang, I threatened Ma Chao with Ma Teng to surrender, but Ma Chao refused. Ma Teng wants to use it, but it is not feasible to order Ma Chao to surrender. "


    Yang Xiu stopped talking immediately.


    Pang Tong''s eyes fell on Yan Xing and asked, "general Yan Xing, you are from Liangzhou. You are familiar with Liangzhou. Are you familiar with the Qiang people in Liangzhou? "


    "Familiar!"


    Yan Xing answered without hesitation.


    Pang Tong replied: "in Liangzhou, the most common people are Qiang people. Whether they are Baima Qiang, shaodang Qiang, or many other Qiang people, they are all independent. Can any of these people gather all the Qiang people? "


    Yan Xing shook his head and said, "no!"


    After a pause, Yan Xing explained: "many Qiang tribes have their own beliefs. Each tribe has its own intentions and plans. However, among these Qiang people, the largest tribe is shaodangqiang. The old king of shaodang Qiang is quite shrewd. "


    Pang Tong asked again, "what''s the relationship between Han Sui and the old king of shaodang Qiang?"


    Yan Xing said: "the relationship is not very good. In those days, when I worked for Han Sui, although shaodang Lao Wang also respected Han Sui, in fact, he didn''t listen to the tune and didn''t listen to the propaganda. He didn''t have enough interests. Shaodang Lao Wang didn''t pay attention to Han Sui. The king of Qiang whom Han Sui had made friends with was the king of Qiang in Baima. "


    Pang Tong''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "well, does it mean that we can persuade Shao to be Lao Wang and give Han Sui a blow on the back of his stomach?"


    Yan Xing said: "the truth is like this, but in fact, it''s very difficult to operate. Because no matter shaodang Qiang or other Baima Qiang, they naturally reject Han people. It is almost difficult to persuade shaodangqiang. Even if they agree on the surface, they may go back in the twinkling of an eye. "


    Pang Tong nodded, turned to look at Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, I think I can persuade shaodang Qiang. From general Yan''s explanation, we can roughly infer that shaodang, the king of Qiang, is actually a mercenary generation. "


    "Such people, when the LORD did not enter Liangzhou, could be lured by interests. When the Lord calmed Han Sui and Ma Chao, he forced them to subdue them. "


    "So I invite myself to shaodang Qiang and persuade shaodang Lao Wang."


    Pang Tong said: "however, I need to ask general Chen to accompany me when I go here."


    "Why?" Zhang Xiu asked.


    Pang Tong had a confident look on his face and said: "this time he went to shaodangqiang, he was not only lobbying, but also subduing. In their humble positions, they have also seen the habits of Qiang people. No matter they are Qiang people, Xiongnu people, Xianbei people and Wuhuan people, they all advocate the strong in their bones. General Chen Dao''s martial arts are outstanding. He''s with him. It''s easy to arrange a lot of things. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Chen Dao not far away and asked, "Uncle Zhi, what do you think?"


    Chen Dao said, "no problem!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, you will be burned as Qiang. But remember to be careful. Because this time I went to burn dangqiang, I didn''t go to meet Zhang Yan in the Heishan army. At that time, Zhang Yan had been subordinated to his official position. But now it''s very likely that shaodangqiang will win you and ask Han Sui for credit. ""I understand


    Pang Tong nodded and answered.


    Chen Dao is indifferent. For him, such a thing is not difficult. However, they did not act immediately. They had to find out the situation before they could act.


    Sima Yi said: "Lord, Han Sui and Ma Chao were married, but from the perspective of humble position, the relationship between the two sides is not impenetrable. Can we alienate the relationship between the two sides? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "there is no need to alienate. Both sides are on their own guard."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "for the time being, let''s talk about the strategy of burning the Qiang people in the lower reaches. As for more, we''ll talk about it when we meet Ma Chao after we arrive at Longguan. I haven''t seen Ma Chao for more than a year. I don''t know what Ma Chao has become. After Ma Chao, we''ll think about what we''re going to do next. What we need to do now is to go further and find out all the information. "


    When people hear what they say, they don''t say much.


    Everyone agrees with Zhang Xiu''s words and agrees to stay put for the time being.


    After lunch, the army continued to set out.


    All the way to the West was smooth.


    After leaving the territory of youfufeng and entering the territory of Longxian County, Liangzhou, Zhang Xiu and his party were not stopped.


    All the way to Longguan.


    Longguan, established at the foot of the Longshan mountains, with the help of the ups and downs of the mountains to set up checkpoints. The pass is majestic and majestic. Although the years are mottled, Longguan remains the same. The majestic pass stands at the foot of the mountain, blocking the way to Liangzhou.


    At the gate, Ma Chao stood up in his armor.


    He held his hands on the wall of the checkpoint and looked out. With the soldiers on the tower shouting that there were troops coming outside the city, Ma Chao also saw the fast wriggling black line in the distance.


    Gradually, his vision became clearer and clearer. Soon, Ma Chao could see the troops clearly.


    The dark army, one by one soldiers in armour, top helmets. The appearance of the black army is like the black cloud pressing the city, which is shocking.


    Ma Chao saw Zhang Xiu''s army, but his eyes were full of envy.


    Zhang Xiu was young, but he was already in Guanzhong. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were defeated by Zhang Xiu. But he, is actually becomes Zhang Xiu''s subordinate defeat.


    Today, although there are 30000 soldiers, they also have to rely on the strength of Han Sui.


    Otherwise, Ma Chao will not be able to gain a foothold.


    "Hoo


    Ma Chao took a deep breath and adjusted his mood.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu''s army set up camp.


    Zhang Xiu took the lead in driving his horse out of the city and stopped 80 steps outside Longguan.

 Chapter 555

    When Ma Chaoyi saw Zhang Xiu outside the pass, it was the enemy meeting, and he was very jealous. In a flash, Ma Chao''s eyes were filled with a sense of killing. He pressed the wall of Longguan with his hands, hoping to go out and kill Zhang Xiu immediately.


    Before meeting Zhang Xiu, although Ma Chao was not respected by Ma Teng in his family, Ma Chao had his own cavalry. Under Ma Teng''s command, he called himself an army and ran across Liangzhou.


    He was not defeated in Liangzhou.


    After meeting Zhang Xiu, he was defeated at the expense of his troops. Even his father Ma Teng was in trouble and became the prisoner of Zhang Xiu.


    Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you dare to come to Longguan."


    With a faint smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said: "you Ma Chao, the defeated general, dare to lead your troops to Chencang. Why didn''t I dare to come to Longguan? As the saying goes, Kou can go and I can go. I come to Longguan, it''s my intention. "


    Brush!


    Ma Chao''s face changed slightly.


    In Zhang Xiu''s words, he is regarded as a thief.


    Ma Chao knew that he couldn''t win Zhang Xiu, so he said: "Zhang Xiu, Longguan is the first pass of Liangzhou, the gateway of Liangzhou, which is indestructible. Our army is here. It''s impossible for you to break Longguan. Don''t talk nonsense. If you want to fight, attack is it. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what''s the urgency? I haven''t seen you for years. It''s also right to talk about the past. What''s more, you haven''t seen Ma Teng for such a long time. Don''t you want to see him? "


    "Come on, take Mateng out."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    This time, Zhang Xiu took Ma Teng with her. When he captured Ma Teng, Zhang Xiu brought Yan Xing down. He never recruited Ma Teng, because it was almost impossible for an old fox like Ma Teng to recruit him.


    There are no loyal men in Zhongyuan. As long as there is sufficient interest temptation, Ma Teng will rebel and even stab Zhang Xiu in the back of his stomach.


    Let marten be a hostage, good!


    Today''s Ma Teng is fat and white. The whole person has put on a lot of weight, and his stomach has straightened up. During his stay in Chang''an, although Ma Teng was imprisoned, he also lived alone in the mansion, but he could not see any outsiders or leave the residence.


    Even so, Ma Teng''s food and clothing, has not been affected. Even after the supply of pork in Chang''an, Ma Teng has become fond of pork, especially braised pork.


    With good wine and good meat, Ma Teng didn''t worry about other things, let alone exercise, and had already gained weight.


    Sometimes, marten thinks it''s a good day.


    Because it''s very comfortable.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s strength is becoming stronger and stronger. When Ma Teng hears from his family that Zhang Xiu has been winning constantly, he has become the supreme captain of the court. Ma Teng''s mind of revenge gradually sinks to the bottom.


    Even Yuan Shao is not as good as Zhang Xiu, let alone Ma Teng. Ma Teng was brought out by the soldiers and his eyes fell on the upper floor of Longguan city. He said in a loud voice, "where is Meng Qi?"


    Ma Chao had sharp eyes and gritted his teeth: "Ma Teng, why did you come here?"


    In a word, let Ma Teng angry.


    You know, Ma Teng is Ma Chao''s father. However, when Ma Chao opened his mouth, he called his name directly. In Ma Teng''s opinion, it was disrespectful and rebellious. He had no attitude that a son should have.


    Ma Teng gritted his teeth and said, "what did you shout just now, villain?"


    Ma Chao said: "when I was in Chencang County, you had already cut off the relationship with me. Now what are you doing here. It''s hard. Zhang Xiu wants to do the same thing again. She threatens me to withdraw from Longguan with your life. "


    Ma Chao did it on purpose.


    He is to put things, to Longguan defense mentioned, deliberately let Zhang Xiu threat.


    Ma Teng gritted his teeth and said, "you''re just a force. You''re trying to compete with Zhang Taiwei. You''re just beyond your capacity. Now, open the gate of Longguan and surrender to Zhang Taiwei, or you will die. "


    "No way!"


    Ma Chao bit his teeth and refused.


    It is impossible for him to submit to Zhang Xiu. At the beginning, when he was fighting with Chen Dao, a general under Zhang Xiu''s command, he spent a lot of energy. When he was about to kill Chen Dao, he was rushed by Zhang Xiu, so that he couldn''t kill Chen Dao.


    At that time, Ma Chao was so consumed and weakened that he lost to Zhang Xiu because of the confrontation with Chen Dao, which also made Ma Chao ashamed.


    He will never surrender.


    He wants to fight Zhang Xiu again, a snow before shame.


    Ma Teng, with a helpless look, turned to look at Zhang Xiu and said helplessly: "Zhang Taiwei, this evil has gone crazy. He doesn''t even want his father. I can''t persuade him. What do you think? "


    "That''s all. Step back!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and asked the soldiers to step back with their horses.


    In the last battle in Chencang County, Zhang Xiu captured Ma Teng and Ma Xiu alive to threaten Ma Chao. However, Ma Chao refused directly and was not willing to save Ma Teng. At that time, Ma Chao simply refused, so this time, Zhang Xiu did not report too much expectation, just let Ma Teng have a try.


    Ma Chao saw that Zhang Xiu had Ma Teng taken away. Seeing that Ma Teng was going to leave, he immediately widened his eyes.What''s going on?


    Zhang Xiu had Ma Teng taken away.


    Don''t use marten to threaten him?


    Ma Chao''s heart is ready. Once Zhang Xiu threatened Ma Teng and let Ma Chao withdraw from Longguan, Ma Chao would follow the trend and return to Ma Teng, then retreat and let Zhang Xiu occupy Longguan.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t follow the common sense, which made Ma Chao''s plan come to nothing.


    Ma Chao clenched his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t you threaten my withdrawal with Ma Teng''s life in Chencang last time? You can learn it. Maybe I will withdraw directly? "


    When he said this, Ma Chao was sincere and ready to withdraw.


    As long as Zhang Xiu threatens, Ma Chao will withdraw.


    The problem is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe Ma Chao at all. Especially with the threat from Chencang county and the fact that Ma Chao didn''t recognize Ma Teng just now, Zhang Xiu is even more reluctant to threaten.


    On the contrary, this led to Ma Chao''s self defeating and failing to achieve the expected goal.


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "ma''er, you are not willing to withdraw. Why should I do more?"


    Ma Chao said: "this time, I will withdraw."


    "Ha..."


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "ma''er, ma''er, I didn''t expect that you, who are so dull and talkative, should also become so weird. I won''t be fooled. "


    When Ma Chao heard this, he was so angry that his lungs would explode. He was really sincere.


    It''s a real withdrawal.


    But the more sincere he was, the more distrustful Zhang Xiu was.


    This makes Ma Chao very helpless.


    I can''t. He just ran away without fighting.


    At this point, Ma Chao felt helpless. As soon as he gritted his teeth, he stopped talking about the retreat. Since he could not achieve the expected goal, he did not adopt the previous plan.


    Ma Chao turned and said, "Zhang Xiu was in Chencang county last time. Although you defeated me, at that time, I was defeated because I consumed too much strength. How dare you fight today? "


    Ma Chao was very upset about his defeat.


    In Xiliang, Ma Chao is invincible. He is invincible in martial arts and has never met an opponent. But Ma Chao was ashamed of losing to Zhang Xiu last time. For more than a year, Ma Chao has been honing his martial arts and has been honing himself.


    His martial arts have been improved.


    Their own strength has also been improved.


    Ma Chao now wants to defeat Zhang Xiu in the battlefield to prove his strength.


    Zhang Xiu heard Ma Chao''s words and said in a deep voice: "my official is outside Longguan. Ma''er, if you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. But you challenge, and there''s only one ending, and that''s your defeat. "


    "Rampant!"


    Ma Chao answered and went downstairs to Longguan city with a golden gun.


    He wants to fight Zhang Xiu.


    He wants to prove himself!


    He wants a shame before snow!

 Chapter 556

    Creak!!


    The gate of Longguan is open.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves sounded, Ma Chao rode a horse quickly. Today''s Ma Chao is at the peak of his spirit and will to fight. He put on his helmet and flapped his armour. He pointed his golden spear at Zhang Xiu in the distance.


    Zhang Xiu galloped the horse to stand, and the soldiers had already handed over the overlord''s gun. In the face of Ma Chao, he is not afraid, and even has a curiosity mentality, but to see how strong Ma Chao can be.


    After more than a year, even if Ma Chao''s strength is enhanced, compared with Zhang Xiu, it is still not enough. Because more than a year, Zhang Xiu''s strength has been improved again.


    Zhang Xiu patted the horse''s back, and the wind in her crotch was channeling, whistling and rushing forward.


    It''s late, it''s fast.


    Two people meet in a twinkling of an eye, two big guns each stick out, then bump together.


    Generals who also use guns, whether Zhang Xiu or Ma Chao, are inclined to power. The only difference is that even though Zhang Xiu focuses on strength, she combines hardness and softness to overcome hardness and softness. Nowadays, most of the time, Zhang Xiu uses the way of rolling, because Zhang Xiu is able to reduce ten skills.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength has reached the point where she can crush each other.


    Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu fought several moves in succession, excited and said: "Zhang Xiu, it''s been more than a year. You haven''t improved at all. Today you will be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "just now, it was just a warm-up. Ma''er, if you really think of me as Zhang Xiu, you have a false reputation. "


    Just now, Zhang Xiu is testing Ma Chao''s ability. Compared with Chen Cangzhi''s war, Ma Chao did make some progress.


    Unfortunately, it''s too trivial.


    When Ma Chao heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was so angry that he said, "rampant!"


    The golden spear of tiger head in his hand constantly urged his strength, and the speed of piercing was faster and faster. The smashed force was more indestructible, rigid and powerful.


    Zhang Xiu tried, but she didn''t stay.


    The overlord''s gun urged, under the power perfusion, the long gun swept across the air, hanging the whistling sound.


    It''s terrible!


    "Dang!"


    Two weapons collided with each other in a shocking manner.


    When the power of the collision broke out, Zhang Xiu sat on the horse and did not retreat. Not only Zhang Xiu''s own strength is extremely powerful, but also the pursuit of the wind in his crotch is the king of the horse, which is the real god horse.


    Enough to withstand the impact of force.


    Ma Chao''s face changed again and again.


    The power of the surging impact made him hold the palm of tiger head Zhan''s golden gun, numb. A pair of arms, bear a huge impact.


    "Herod!"


    The horse in the crotch, hissing back.


    How strong!


    Ma Chao''s heart, shocked, this is all the strength of Zhang Xiu?


    In Ma Chao''s crotch, the horse retreated two steps. When she just stabilized her figure, Zhang Xiu moved forward again. The overlord''s gun was swung up and swept down in the air, just like the giant pillar of Optimus collapsed.


    Ma Chao couldn''t avoid it. He held the golden gun of tiger head Zhan in both hands and tried his best to resist it.


    "Drink!"


    The horse drinks very low, and his whole body is full of strength.


    "Dang!"


    When the overlord''s gun fell and fell on Ma Chao''s golden gun, the fierce force made the golden gun bend slightly, because Zhang Xiu''s strength was too strong.


    Ma Chao snorted. In addition to the numbness of his palms and the severe pain of his mouth, he felt that the breath in his chest was almost broken up, and the viscera were also in pain.


    "Herod!"


    The horse in the crotch is constantly whistling.


    The horse''s hooves trembled and nearly stood unsteadily.


    Ma Chao clenched his teeth and raised his whole body to the top. He swung open Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun and quickly retreated.


    He dare not fight again!


    When fighting with Zhang Xiu, he is completely crushed, which is a rolling gesture.


    The strength of the other side is too strong.


    Every blow is like a heavy hammer. His heart began to vibrate, completely unstoppable.


    Zhang Xiu saw Ma Chao withdraw and didn''t pursue him. She said, "Ma Er, is this you? You''re ambitious. Beat me. But this is just a fight, you just withdraw. Well, you are a disappointment


    Ma Chao drove his horse back, and his face changed again and again.


    He is a man of great pride.


    But now she is satirized by Zhang Xiu, and her heart is even more oppressed. As soon as he entered the gate of Longguan, his Qi and blood surged up. He felt that as soon as his throat was sweet, there was blood gushing out.


    "Poof!"


    Ma Chao opened his mouth and spilled blood.


    After spitting out the blood, Ma Chao took a long breath and relaxed. In the previous fight with Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao was oppressed and felt extremely uncomfortable.


    Now, it''s much easier.


    When Ma Chao returned to the tower, pound saw this and said with concern, "are you OK, Lord?"Pound said: "Lord, just now, is it a fraud?"


    Pound knows Ma Chao''s martial arts. In the war of Chen Cangzhi, pound also had a short fight with Zhang Xiu. With the improvement of Ma Chao''s strength, pound thought that Ma Chao would not be beaten without fighting back.


    Therefore, pound infers that Ma Chao is deliberately preparing for it and for the loss of Longguan.


    Ma Chao gave a miserable smile and said, "Ling Ming, how can I cheat? In my heart, I wish I could defeat Zhang Xiu at once, and I wish I could be ashamed before snow. I just did my best. "


    Pound was shocked and said: "but Zhang Xiu''s strength is not so powerful. In particular, the power of the Lord has risen so much. "


    Ma Chao replied: "my strength has been improved. But the strength of Zhang Xiu is also rising. Even more, Zhang Xiu''s strength has improved. I have no power to fight back in front of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Hiss!"


    Pound couldn''t help but take a breath.


    Zhang Xiu, this is too strong.


    We should know that Ma Chao''s strength is extremely strong and can be said to be the general of all forces. But Ma Chao was completely beaten in front of Zhang Xiu. Pound''s heart, can not imagine, Zhang Xiu''s strength to what extent.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu said: "ma''er, if you are willing to surrender, you are willing to worship me as your teacher. Maybe you can improve your martial arts by teaching me some more martial arts. "


    "In particular, your shooting is more than just fierce, but not dexterous."


    "If you are weaker than yourself, you can break ten thousand methods and crush each other. But when you encounter something stronger than you, your weakness is exposed, and you can''t meet it with the help of dexterous shooting. "


    Zhang Xiu joked: "ma''er, my shooting technique can be hard or soft. It''s already hard and soft."


    Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang XiuXiu wants to talk nonsense. If you want to attack Longguan, you can attack directly. Ma Chao is on the upper floor of Longguan. I''m waiting for you


    He doesn''t talk much about Zhang Xiu.


    He clearly remembers that in Chencang in the past, Zhang Xiu threatened him with Ma Teng and Ma Xiu. After he refused to rescue Ma Teng and Ma Xiu, Zhang Xiu did not kill Ma Teng, making Ma Chao a villain.


    If you talk too much with Zhang Xiu, you can only lose by yourself.


    Just talk less.


    Ma Chao looked at pound and said, "Ling Ming, you muster the troops in Longguan. Zhang Xiu can''t fight. She is bound to attack. Once Zhang Xiu attacked, we pretended to resist and quickly retreated. "


    "Here it is


    Pound''s fist is in.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Ma Chao didn''t talk nonsense any more. She withdrew her army and ordered: "Huang Zhong, attack."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong immediately gave the order to attack.


    Under the command of the flying bear army, as well as Zhang jaw''s conventional army, each out of 5000 elite soldiers, began to rush to Longguan. The soldiers charged quickly with a shield and a knife.


    When ten thousand elite soldiers launched a sprint, some archers took bows and arrows to shoot at the top of the city, suppressing Ma Chao''s forces on the top of the city.


    War between the two sides is imminent.


    Zhang Xiu stares at everything on the battlefield and finds that when her soldiers keep on attacking, Longguan doesn''t shoot a bow and arrow from beginning to end. Even when the soldiers arrive at the foot of Longguan''s tower, they are not even ready for Jimu and boiling water.


    There''s no garrison preparation.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command set up ladder by ladder. One by one, they climbed the ladder and rushed up quickly. No matter how defensive they are, their task is to conquer Longguan.

 Chapter 557

    One by one soldiers, fast sprint.


    Soon, a large number of soldiers rushed to the city.


    All the soldiers are fighting. These fighting soldiers, howling, are more brave in the war. On the contrary, the soldiers stationed in the garrison began to rout after fighting for a while.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ma Chao held on for less than half an hour and ordered to withdraw.


    All garrison troops, evacuate.


    Ma Chao evacuated orderly, but Zhang Xiu''s soldiers conquered Longguan without any effort. In a short time, it was already open the gate and entered from outside Longguan.


    When Zhang Xiu entered Longguan with a large army, Ma Chao''s army had retreated completely.


    After counting the losses, Huang Zhong came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, we have lost less than 600 soldiers in this war. More than 200 soldiers of the flying bear army were killed, and nearly 400 conventional soldiers were killed. The soldiers under Ma Chao''s command will not be damaged by more than 1000 people. He has evacuated. "


    After entering Longguan, Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "it''s strange. Ma Chao has 30000 excellent soldiers. With the strength of Ma Chao and the geographical advantage of Longguan, if we want to resist US, unless we make a surprise attack and win by surprise, it will be no problem even if Ma Chao stays in garrison for ten days and a half months. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Ma Chao didn''t even have a little defensive equipment. It''s obvious that Ma Chao didn''t plan to guard Longguan early in the morning. He had a mind to retreat. "


    Huang Zhongdao said: "my Lord, you can observe carefully. It''s true. Is Ma Chao prepared to ambush us in Longshan when he gives up guarding Longguan


    "Hard!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "there are no deep ditches and no easy ambush sites in the topography of Longshan. Such a place is not conducive to laying an ambush. In particular, the terrain of Longshan is not steep, and there are no deep mountains and big trees in the cold northwest, so it is impossible to hide soldiers. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for Ma Chao to ambush. "


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Wang Yue stood up and gave an answer.


    Zhang Xiu said: "immediately dispatch the royal guards to investigate the situation of Longxian. In addition, spread the news of the capture of Longguan and see Han Sui''s action. We don''t understand Ma Chao''s intention, but we can understand it through Han Sui. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue gave his fist.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong again and said, "Han Sheng, send sentries along the direction of Ma Chao''s retreat to find out Ma Chao''s army movements carefully."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should bow his hand.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the army has conquered Longguan and is stationed in Longguan for the time being. When we get the news, we''ll move in. In today''s situation, we can''t move in easily. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    The current situation, Zhang Xiu see not true, chose to garrison Longguan.


    Anyway, after seizing Longguan, Zhang Xiu tore up Longguan''s defense and had the chance to enter Liangzhou. Now don''t understand Ma Chao''s intention, don''t understand each other to do what, Zhang Xiu is first steady.


    Find out the situation.


    After the troops were stationed, they camped in place.


    In the evening, Wang Yue came to the camp in a hurry and saw Zhang Xiu. He reported: "my Lord, just got the news, there was a large-scale spread of news in Longxian county and even in the rest of Liangzhou, saying that my Lord came to Liangzhou to kill Qiang people."


    "Even, it is said that the Lord is a murderer, and he only knows Han people, not Qiang people, not foreigners. In order to provide evidence, Han Sui specifically quoted the story of Hu Chuquan and Yu Fuluo, saying that the Lord killed the Huns and built the capital temple. "


    "Nowadays, many Qiang people in Liangzhou are agitated and impetuous."


    Wang Yue worried: "this matter has been widely spread."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes and said, "Han Sui''s move is to win over the people of Liangzhou and the Qiang people of Liangzhou. His mind is rather careful. "


    Wang Yue said: "Han Sui is extremely treacherous."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "is there a large number of royal guards in Liangzhou?"


    "So much!"


    Wang Yue nodded and replied, "Liangzhou is located at the border. There are countless Rangers living here. In particular, the chivalrous people in the bitter and cold places are willful and chivalrous, and they will kill if they don''t agree with each other. For this reason, I recruited many rangers to work for the royal guards. "


    Zhang liangxiu told people to live a better life in Liangzhou


    "Tell them that when I arrived in Liangzhou, I was exempted from local corvee and taxes on farming. In addition, it will also set up a special market to reduce the price of salt and iron in Liangzhou, so that they can have a good life. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "anyone who is obedient to Zhang Xiu, whether Qiang people in Liangzhou or Han people, will surely have a good life."After hearing this, Wang Yue was very surprised and said, "Lord, do you really want to exempt the taxes on corvee and farming?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu said: "although there are many people farming in Liangzhou, in fact, most of them are Han people farming. The exemption from farming taxes is also for the Han people. "


    "As for the rest of the Qiang people, most of them gathered in various tribes, few cultivated, and most of them raised sheep. In this case, the exemption of corvee and farming taxes is of little use to them. "


    "That''s just a good condition."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not easy to really govern Liangzhou. But the first thing is to stabilize the situation in Liangzhou. "


    Wang Yue said: "I understand your humble position!"


    He immediately turned and left to arrange the action of the royal guards.


    After Wang Yue left, Huang Zhong came in a hurry.


    When Huang Zhong saw Zhang Xiu, he clasped his fist and said, "Lord, the sentinel sent back the latest news. Ma Chao did not stay in Longshan after he withdrew from Longguan, and his army retreated without hiding his whereabouts and went to Longxian county. "


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to hear that.


    He thought about it in his heart. After a while, he suddenly laughed and said, "I understand, I understand!"


    Huang Zhong said, "what did you understand?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "all kinds of signs show that Ma Chao is not willing to guard Longguan at all. At the beginning, Ma Chao spoke several times and asked me to threaten him with Ma Teng. He might withdraw. Now it seems that Ma Chao is sincere, he did not want to resist. If I threaten, he may actually withdraw. "


    "Why?" Huang Zhong asked


    Zhang Xiu replied: "if you think about it carefully, the reason is actually very simple, because Ma Chao is not willing to consume his troops in Longguan. Ma Chao really wants to beat me, but he will never accept that Han Sui is allowed to stand on the sidelines in the rear. "


    "Therefore, Ma Chao in Longguan even a little defensive equipment, are not prepared."


    "That''s exactly what happened. Ma Chao resisted a little and withdrew directly."


    "After Ma Chao withdrew, he went directly to Longxian. It can be seen that Ma Chao and Han Sui are still at odds. "


    "This is absolutely the case," Zhang said


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong understood and said, "now Ma Chao is retreating to Longxian county. Let''s rest here for one night. Early tomorrow morning, they will immediately go to Longxian. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    After Huang Zhong got Zhang Xiu''s command, he immediately stepped down and arranged to enter the army.

 Chapter 558

    Longxian, in the city.


    Han Sui''s general''s house is still full of singing and dancing and enjoying himself. The Anti Japanese army is in Longguan, the front line of which is guarded by 30000 troops led by Ma Chao. With Ma Chao in Longguan, Han Sui thinks that even if Zhang Xiu raises 70000 troops, it is not easy to break the defense of Longguan.


    What''s more, Han Sui knows Ma Chao''s hatred of Zhang Xiu.


    There is a deep hatred between the two sides.


    Under this premise, Ma Chao is unlikely to let Zhang Xiu enter.


    This is the strength of Han Sui.


    Han Sui looks at the dancing singer in the hall, and his heart is full of fierce anger. With a greedy look in his eyes, he immediately stood up and went to the singer. He reached for a singer and swam on her.


    For a moment, the singer''s body was soft, and her hand was around Han Sui''s neck, as if hanging on Han Sui''s body.


    The singer is happy.


    To be Han Sui''s woman is to ascend to the sky.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, a rush of footsteps came.


    But Zhuang Ze entered.


    Zhuang Ze entered the hall with a serious look on his face and a wrinkled brow. As soon as he saw it, something big happened. When Han Sui was excited, he suddenly saw Zhuang Ze come in. When he saw Zhuang Ze again, he felt as if his pocket had been splashed with a basin of cold water.


    He let go of the singer, waved his hand, and all the singers rushed away. Han then straightened his clothes, returned to the table and asked, "Sir, you look dignified. What happened?"


    Zhuang Ze said: "I just got the news from the front line, but Longguan was lost."


    "Ah


    Han Sui hears speech exclaim.


    Under his buttocks, as if he had been stabbed by a needle, he rubbed and stood up. With both hands on his back, he paced back and forth quickly. He said anxiously, "what''s the matter? Longguan is easy to defend but hard to attack. What''s the matter? How can it be broken suddenly?"


    At this moment, Han Sui had no previous calmness.


    Because it''s a tough situation.


    Longguan is the gateway of Liangzhou. If Longguan is in Liangzhou, Liangzhou is safe. Zhang Xiu can''t easily enter Longguan. But now, Longguan lost, Zhang Xiu''s army can drive straight in, directly to Longxian.


    Zhuang Ze sighed and replied, "report back to my Lord. According to the information sent back by the sentinel, Zhang Xiu''s army arrived outside Longguan. Ma Chao went out of the gate to fight with Zhang Xiu. He was beaten by Zhang Xiu. Even Ma Chao vomited blood as soon as he returned to the city."


    "After Ma Chao''s defeat, he took charge of Longguan."


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu launched an attack. Less than an hour after the fighting, Ma Chao yelled and couldn''t resist, so he took the army out. Now Ma Chao''s army is rapidly withdrawing to Longxian county. "


    Zhuang Ze said: "according to the Sentinel''s estimation, in another three hours, Ma Chao''s army will return to Longxian."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Han Sui heard this, he could not help clenching his fist and waving it in the air. He just felt that there was endless anger in his heart, which he could not suppress.


    "Damn Ma Chao!"


    "He only resisted one hour."


    "Even if there are only 5000 elite soldiers, with the help of the geographical advantages of Longguan, Zhang Xiu can''t break Longguan in one hour. Ma Chao, this is dereliction of duty, and he deliberately retreated. "


    "Damn it, Ma Chao, damn it!"


    Han then kept swearing, with a look of impatience.


    He did so not only because his plan to weaken Ma Chao was broken, but also because he wanted to use Ma Chao''s plan to weaken Zhang Xiu completely.


    Zhang Xiu''s 70000 troops passed through Longguan intact, which was extremely unfavorable to Han Sui.


    Zhuang Ze continued: "judging from Ma Chao''s action of directly retreating after an hour of fighting, Ma Chao must have seen through our intention of relying on strength. Of course, we can''t blame Ma Chao, because Ma Chao went to Longguan and resisted Zhang Xiu. "


    "If the Lord wants to question Ma Chao, he can say that he retreated because he couldn''t stop it."


    "Ma Chao will withdraw with the help of our strength and attack Zhang Xiu together. With the help of Ma Chao alone, Zhang Xiu''s plan will definitely not work. "


    Zhuang Ze said with emotion: "Ma Chao is very cunning."


    Han Sui said: "but the strength of Zhang Xiu has not been weakened at all. Once Zhang Xiu''s 70000 elite soldiers arrive in Longxian, it''s not likely to win with the help of Longxian alone. "


    Zhuang Ze replied: "during this period, there have been nearly two Qiang people who have come to serve the Lord. In addition to the Baima Qiang and shaodang Qiang, some other Qiang people from small tribes are scrambling to join in


    "These people are afraid of being slaughtered by Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu was cruel to the Huns. He killed countless Xiongnu people constantly, which was very lethal. Under such circumstances, countless Qiang people believed that Zhang Xiu wanted to kill the Qiang people. "


    Zhuang Ze said: "with the Qiang soldiers in, it''s OK for us to guard Longxian county. If we want to win, we also have a certain chance."


    "Good, good, good!"There was a smile on Han Sui''s face, and finally there was some good news.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a soldier came running in from outside the hall.


    Han Sui said, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier replied, "report back to the general, many Qiang soldiers in the army have left one after another."


    Brush!


    Han Sui''s face changed greatly.


    Just now, Han Sui was complacent about the gathering of Qiang people. In his heart, he thought that there were countless Qiang people under his command, and he had another fighting force. When the time came, he could use the Qiang people to weaken Zhang Xiu, and he would be able to benefit from it.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the Qiang people left.


    Han Sui clenched his teeth and asked urgently, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier replied, "I don''t know. When I came to report, I heard many Qiang people saying that Zhang Xiu didn''t want to kill Qiang people. When Zhang Xiu arrived in Liangzhou, he wanted to be exempt from corvee and taxes, so that the Qiang people could have food and clothing. "


    Han Sui''s cheek puffed, and his face showed a dignified look.


    Han Sui waved the soldiers back, looked at Zhuang Ze and said, "Sir, it''s obvious that this is Zhang Xiu''s trick. Zhang Xiu showed kindness to countless Qiang people, intending to win them over for their own use. At the worst, it can also destroy the fighting capacity of the Qiang people. Zhang Xiu is very cunning. How do you deal with it? "


    Originally, Han Sui was ready to use Qiang people to deal with Zhang Xiu, but now it''s different.


    Zhuang Ze said: "since Zhang Xiu wants to compete with us, then we will fight each other. Zhang Xiu tempts Qiang people with interests, and we also incite them with interests. As long as the Qiang people help the Lord, they will be given the corresponding money. As long as there are enough interests, countless Qiang people will certainly come to help the Lord. "


    "No!"


    Han Sui shook his head and said categorically: "this case can''t be opened!"


    Zhuang Ze said, "why?"


    Han Sui said: "if these Qiang people, like pigs and dogs, give them money now. With their greedy nature, they will certainly ask for more money and food. In such a situation, where can bear. For the time being, no matter who left. Use as many Qiang people as you have left behind. The rest, whatever. "


    When Zhuang Ze heard the speech, he sighed in his heart. Han Sui said so, and he said no more.


    Han Sui ordered: "you go and stare. As soon as Ma Chao comes back, he will report it immediately."


    "Here it is


    Zhuang Ze was ordered to step down.

 Chapter 559

    In the evening, Ma Chao returned from the front line and entered Longxian city. As soon as Ma Chao returned, the news reached Zhuang Ze''s ear. Zhuang Ze reported to Han Sui''s ear. Han Suifeng sent someone to call Ma Chao to the general''s house.


    Ma Chao had expected this for a long time.


    He withdrew from Longguan, the news spread to Han Sui''s ears, Han Sui is bound to be angry.


    This is normal.


    Han Sui''s anger has already gone straight to his head. When Ma Chao entered the house, he couldn''t help saying that when he saw Ma Chao, he immediately scolded and said, "Ma Chao, Ma Chao, I owe you money, food and weapons to send troops to resist Zhang Xiu."


    "Is that how you repay me?"


    "You have 30000 elite soldiers under your command, and among them, there are more than 10000 elite cavalry. If you don''t have me as your backup, you can ask yourself, "can you support me?"


    "You can''t hold it!"


    Han Sui chopped off the railway: "without me, you are nothing. I''ve given you money and food, weapons and armor, but I just want you to guard Longguan. "


    "I didn''t ask you to die!"


    "It didn''t hurt you either."


    "But when you arrive at Longguan, you fight with Zhang Xiu and withdraw. As you know, Longguan is the gateway of Liangzhou. If you guard Longguan, you will guard Liangzhou. "


    Han Sui said angrily, "you''re good. Pat your ass and you''ll come back. You are so disappointing. "


    In the face of Han Sui''s groundless accusations, Ma Chao smiles calmly.


    He is not afraid of Han Sui.


    Ma Chao raised his robe and sat down. He said with a straight face, "I don''t understand what my father-in-law said. You don''t have a pain in the back when you stand and speak. My father-in-law thinks that Zhang Xiu is good at resisting. Well, now you send the army to resist Zhang Xiu. "


    "If you can block Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao is incompetent. Ma Chao is willing to admit it."


    "Zhang Xiu was defeated by Cao Cao and retired from Yuan Shao. Is such a person easy to deal with? If I only rely on my strength, I can defeat Zhang Xiu. If I look around the world, who can enter Ma Chao''s eyes


    Ma Chao''s sharp words, said: "father-in-law, you are not me, how do you know I did not go all out to resist. Although I haven''t been able to resist for a long time, it''s not unstoppable, it''s unstoppable. It''s really disappointing that you don''t know what''s right and why you blame me. "


    "You..."


    Han Sui was even more furious when he heard that.


    Ma Chao''s wings are so hard that he talks to him like this.


    Han Sui wants to deal with Ma Chao, but now there is Zhang Xiu. At this time, internal strife must not occur, and the situation must be stabilized. Han Sui took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He couldn''t be dazed by anger.


    Han Sui said in a deep voice, "son-in-law, Zhang Xiu is here. Don''t you want revenge?"


    Ma Chao shook his head and said, "I always want revenge."


    Han Sui said, "but don''t you try your best to resist Zhang Xiu?"


    Ma Chao sneered and said, "my father-in-law, standing and talking, doesn''t have a backache. You have the ability. Why didn''t you let your elite guard Longguan at the beginning? You don''t trust me. Why let me go? My father-in-law, it''s no use criticizing. Rather than this, we should both calm down and talk about cooperation. Only through sincere cooperation can we have a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    Han Sui''s eyes narrowed.


    It''s a trick!


    Han Sui''s heart suddenly gave birth to this idea.


    Before that, he calculated Ma Chao, intending to let Ma Chao go to Longguan to resist Zhang Xiu. He hoped that Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu would fight together and use Ma Chao''s forces to weaken Zhang Xiu.


    But in the end, Ma Chao had no loss at all. On the contrary, he paid a lot of food and weapons.


    On the contrary, Ma Chao was satiated.


    The most important thing is that after Ma Chao lost Longguan, Han Sui lost control of the overall situation of Liangzhou, because he lacked the door to resist Zhang Xiu. In such a premise, Han Sui must fully resist Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, we can only retreat again and again.


    It is impossible for Han Sui to hide behind the scenes.


    Han Sui''s eyes examined Ma Chao in front of him. Although Ma Chao is still immature compared with him, he is also the leader of the army. The beard under the jaw shows Ma Chao''s growing maturity.


    Han Sui said with a faint smile: "I''ve seldom missed my calculations. I didn''t expect that this time, I was beaten by you. They beat wild geese all day, but they pecked their eyes. "


    Ma Chao said: "my father-in-law has missed so many things. He said that in dealing with Zhang Xiu, it''s not once or twice. From the beginning to the end, you have never won Zhang Xiu. "


    Han suddenly convulsed.


    Why didn''t he find out that Ma Chao has sharp teeth and sharp mouth?


    Han Sui didn''t want to argue with Ma Chao. He said in a deep voice, "Meng Qi, do you still want to deal with Zhang Xiu?"


    Ma Chao said: "yes, why not."


    Han Sui said: "in that case, you should correct your attitude and speak well. Next, let''s discuss how to deal with Zhang Xiu and deal with the matter well. "


    Ma Chao said in a deep voice: "father-in-law, it''s not that I should correct my attitude, but that you should correct your ideas. If you''ve been trying to figure me out and borrow from me, I''m afraid it''s not easy to do"At the beginning of the battle in Chencang County, you escaped directly. Thanks to my alertness, you escaped. This time, you''re going to use me again. I''m not fooled. "


    "Next, who knows what else you''re going to do? Anyway, I''m just a little armed, and I don''t have a big ambition. I''m great. I''ll take my army to escape and go to Zhangye and other places. "


    "I went away to see how Zhang Xiu wanted to fight."


    Ma Chao said: "but my father-in-law is different. If he wants to control Liangzhou, he has no way to evacuate. Otherwise, you can''t stop Zhang Xiu now, let alone after entering Liangzhou, you can''t stop Zhang Xiu at that time. "


    Han Sui''s expression changed again and again.


    He has lived for decades, but now he has been taught by Ma Chao. It''s a shame.


    Han Sui found that Ma Chao was not easy to cheat.


    Today''s Ma Chao is more sophisticated than Ma Teng. In more than a year, Ma Chao has changed too much.


    After thinking for a moment, Han Sui laughed and said, "my son-in-law, I really mean to attack Zhang Xiu. Now that Zhang Xiu has been killed, how are you going to attack Zhang Xiu? "


    Ma Chao shrugged his shoulders and said, "my father-in-law knows that. I always don''t understand these. I''m not good at planning."


    Han Sui zhengse said: "in that case, the plan to attack Zhang Xiu is made by me. After you approve, we will implement it. If you don''t approve of it, how about saying it directly? "


    "Yes!"


    Ma Chao answered directly.


    Han Sui said in a deep voice: "now I''ve spread the news that Zhang Xiu is going to kill Qiang people. Many Qiang people have come to work. There are nearly twenty or thirty thousand Qiang people under my command. This is not a weak force."


    "Even though there were rumors about Zhang Xiu''s walking, he said that the light corvee was tax-free after Liangzhou, so that he left some Qiang people. But after all, the Qiang people believe in me, so there are still countless Qiang people left behind. "


    "I mean, you take the army, you go out of the city, you stay out of the city. After Zhang Xiu arrived, I first attacked Zhang Xiu''s former army with Qiang people. When the Qiang people upset the rhythm of Zhang Xiu''s army, our officer sent troops to attack Zhang Xiu head-on. The infantry and cavalry under your command only need to attack from the rear. "


    Han Sui zhengse way: "we this time, encircle Zhang Xiu, what do you think?"


    Ma Chao thinks quickly.


    What he thought was not how to besiege Zhang Xiu, but whether Han Sui had set up a trap and wanted to count him.


    After thinking about it, Ma Chao couldn''t think of a trap, so he said, "no problem."


    "Good!"


    With a smile on his face, Han Sui said, "that''s it. It''s settled."


    As a matter of fact, Han Sui''s plan really did not calculate Ma Chao. He wants to calculate Ma Chao, but at this time, if he doesn''t besiege Zhang Xiu or show some real skills, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will seize Longxian.


    This is what Han Sui does not want to see.


    Ma Chao did not say much, got up and left the hall, strode away.


    Han Sui looks at Ma Chao''s back, and his eyes are slightly cold. Now he can''t deal with Ma Chao, but when the war with Zhang Xiu is over, he will consider weakening and dealing with Ma Chao.

 Chapter 560

    The army led by Zhang Xiu is on its way.


    Because along the way, did not encounter any obstacles, very smoothly arrived in Longxian. As soon as the army arrived in Longxian County, Zhang Xiu received the news from Wang Yue. He found that Ma Chao came back to the city with the army, and then disappeared. There was no trace of Ma Chao.


    The royal guards searched everywhere and found no trace of Ma Chao.


    After Zhang Xiu pondered, she knew that Ma Chao was not in Longxian City, but outside the city, and was likely to launch a surprise attack. Or to deal with his grain supply, or to surprise attack the rear.


    After all, when Zhang Xiu arrived in Longxian, he went deep into the enemy''s belly and stretched the front.


    Zhang Xiu is not worried about this.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s army had enough food for a month or two. In a short time, there will be no food and grass. Moreover, with his army together, even if Ma Chao raids, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    It is urgent to destroy Han Sui.


    Outside Longxian.


    Zhang Xiu rode up and looked at the city of Longxian. The city in front of us is about three feet high. The city walls are mottled, and they are not impregnable. If Zhang Xiu attack, enough to break Longxian. But Han then had 40000 elite soldiers. If he wanted to break Longxian County, at least Zhang Xiu''s soldiers would have huge losses.


    It''s not cost-effective.


    When Zhang Xiu didn''t order to attack, suddenly, the gate creaked open.


    But Han then led the army out.


    The troops in the front are Qiang soldiers. These Qiang soldiers are in shabby clothes and have no armour. The only thing they have is a steel knife.


    Han Sui recruited more than 23000 Qiang soldiers.


    In the northwest, people are fierce.


    These Qiang people are very brave, especially poor. Under the weak inducement of Han Sui''s salary and food, countless Qiang people were willing to work for Han Sui.


    Just for a little bit of money.


    Zhang Xiu saw the Qiang soldiers at the front and Han Sui army at the back. Her eyes narrowed and she thought.


    Obviously, Han Sui wanted to attack by force.


    Zhang Xiu thought of Ma Chao leaving Longxian county and said, "Huang Zhong!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Huang Zhong answered with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you send orders to Langya camp to make them prepare for war at any time in the rear. Our rear is likely to be attacked by Ma Chao. Once Ma Chao leads the army to kill, the Langya camp will attack and resist. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    Now, Chen Dao left the camp with Pang Tong, and Huang Zhong was in charge of the Langya camp for the time being.


    After Han Sui''s army left the city, the gate closed with a creak.


    Han Sui rode in front of the battle and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you can''t go to heaven, you can''t go to hell. You come to Longxian. Today next year is your memorial day. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Han Sui, I know how many kilos you have. The battle of Chen Cang, you run away in a hurry. Today, I''ll see how you can turn the tide


    "You''ll see it."


    Han then clenched his teeth and said in a loud voice, "it''s time to make contributions. Kill


    "Woo! Woo


    Clarion call, suddenly resounded in the battlefield. The bugle of the attack sounded, and the dense Qiang soldiers went forward to kill. There are more than 20000 Qiang soldiers, whining and rushing forward with weapons.


    There was a fierce look in their eyes.


    Out of the city, Han then promised heavy profits, gave the final encouragement. Han Sui, in front of all the soldiers'' promises, killed one person to get 100 yuan and one sheep, killed two people to get 200 yuan and two sheep, killed three people to get 400 yuan and three sheep, and so on Money is constantly doubled, food is a head for a sheep, constantly accumulated.


    For Qiang people, money and sheep are the basis of living.


    With money, you can buy salt and other food; with sheep, you can sell and eat.


    It''s a safe bet.


    This is a real benefit, so all Qiang people are brave and fearless to die.


    It''s all about survival.


    More than 20000 Qiang people rushed forward like crazy and rushed to Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Han Sui is still in the rear.


    Han Sui''s 40000 elite troops were not used.


    This is to use the Qiang people to break up Zhang Xiu''s army, and then Han Sui can attack.


    Seeing the attacking Qiang soldiers, Zhang Xiu retreated. As the chief general, Huang Zhong quickly mobilized the army, and his soldiers quickly changed the formation. After a while, he completed the transformation.


    A long Spearman came forward, and behind the long spear array were rows of archers.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    When the distance was shortened to about 100 steps, Huang Zhong yelled, "Archer, let go!"


    There were 3000 archers in the rear, all with bows and arrows. The bows and arrows used by soldiers are strong bows, not ordinary bows. After the bowstring is pulled, the bow and arrow aim at the front 45 degrees."Whew!"


    A bow and arrow broke through the air.


    Three thousand bows and arrows suddenly passed through the air and crossed arcs in the air. In the blink of an eye, the bow and arrow flew over the formation of long spearmen and fell to the position of Qiang people.


    Three thousand bows and arrows fell down in a dense way, which covered the sky. Although there is a sun in the sky, when the bows and arrows fall, the dense bows and arrows block the light.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it fell towards the Qiang people.


    "Go ahead, go ahead!"


    "Avoid, avoid the bow and arrow."


    "Get out of the way, all of you!"


    Among the Qiang people, one by one, the soldiers of the Qiang people rushed forward, shouting loudly. There is not much fear in all the facial expressions, because Qiang people are brave and fierce, and they ignore life and death.


    Even if the bow and arrow fell, they continued to rush forward.


    "Kill


    The cry came from the Qiang people.


    The next moment, the dense bow and arrow, has been falling.


    Puchi! Puchi!


    Countless bows and arrows were shot into the Qiang people. For a time, scream everywhere, countless bodies fell to the ground.


    Bows and arrows are still falling in the sky.


    Countless Qiang people were injured and even killed by bows and arrows.


    But the Qiang people are still rushing forward, only a hundred steps away from each other. Even though there are many bows and arrows, the Qiang people''s eyes are full of tenacity and madness. For in their eyes, a life is no more than a sheep.


    A sheep can live!


    Life is like grass!


    That''s it!


    "Kill


    "Kill


    The Qiang people keep shouting and rushing forward with their flesh and blood. With their flesh and blood, they fought their way to the front of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    When the distance between the two sides is less than ten steps, the bow and arrow will lose their function and can not shoot the Qiang people at this distance.


    Black Qiang people, fast forward.


    "Thorn!"


    The commander of the long spear formation, gave the order.


    At the front of the line of spearmen, with thick goose eggs in their hands and guns nearly ten feet and six feet long, stabbed them hard forward. The point of a long gun is extremely sharp.


    When the Qiang people come near, the long gun is thrust forward and easily penetrates into the body of the Qiang people.


    One stab and one puff bring out a lot of blood.


    The Qiang people who rushed to the front were all killed without exception and all fell to the ground. A body fell, countless blood spilled out, dyed the ground red.


    The death of the Qiang people did not make the subsequent Qiang people afraid, but stimulated all the Qiang people.


    All of you, brave and fearless charge.

 Chapter 561

    Zhang Xiu saw the Qiang people who were constantly fighting. She saw that these Qiang people were killed and injured countless times in the rain of arrows, but they were still rushing forward. There was a touch of appreciation in her eyes.


    These Qiang people are not bad.


    Not a counsellor.


    In fact, if you want to recruit, you have to recruit from poor places. Because the more barren place out, the more can understand the bottom layer is not easy, also more dare to fight dare to kill.


    It is the so-called "villains come from the poor".


    In order to survive, the local poor people have to do everything they can to survive.


    It''s not easy for Qiang people to survive. As long as they have a piece of meat, they can do everything and save their lives. Such a person is the material to become a good soldier. Such a person is needed on the battlefield.


    However, appreciation belongs to appreciation. Zhang Xiu will not keep her hand just because she appreciates the Qiang people.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Yan Xing!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Yan Xing answers with a fist.


    Yan Xing, who had been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, had been working in Chang''an and was a civilian. But his own martial arts are very strong enough to cross the battlefield. As soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s order, a look of excitement appeared on his face.


    He''s ready to go.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "I''ll give you three thousand flying bear troops to attack the right wing of Qiang people from the rear left wing."


    Zhang Xiu''s left wing is facing the right wing of Qiang people.


    After hearing this, Yan Xing didn''t hesitate at all. He hugged his fist and said, "I''m in a humble position


    Yan Xing immediately mobilized the army.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Shi ah, listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Shia stepped forward and saluted.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will give you three thousand flying bear troops. You will lead the soldiers to attack the left wing of the Qiang people from the rear right wing."


    "Here it is


    Shi a should go directly.


    It''s rare for Shi a to fight in this way, but Shi a is willing to. Because when Wang Yue was young, he joined the army and killed the bandits among the armies.


    Shia now, too.


    Shia turned back and quickly mobilized the troops.


    "Beat the drum!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums are rumbling and the battle drums are constantly ringing through the battlefield.


    The war drums reverberate endlessly, which is even more exciting. A moment later, three thousand soldiers were killed on the left and right wings of the army. Shi a and Yan Xing lead the army out and rush to attack quickly. The archers in the rear had stopped shooting when the six thousand soldiers poured into the battlefield.


    The long spearmen in front are still killing.


    One by one, Qiang people were killed.


    Yan Xing went to the battlefield to fight. He was armed with a sword and killed the Qiang people. The sword in his hand kept rising and falling. The blade kept falling, killing the Qiang soldiers.


    Even though the Qiang people were fierce, they could not exert their fighting power in front of the 3000 flying bear troops led by Yan Xing.


    The Qiang people are extremely fierce, but fighting with the flying bear army is like hitting an iron wall and can''t push forward. On the contrary, they were killed by the flying bear army led by Yan Xing, which made the formation of Qiang people in chaos.


    On the other side, after the 3000 flying bear troops led by Shi a entered, Shi a was in the front. The sword in his hand was quickly released, or cut horizontally, or stabbed straight. When the edge of the sword passed, a man fell under the sword.


    No one is the enemy of Shia.


    The Qiang people are fierce, but with the killing of 6000 flying bear troops and the resistance of long spearmen, the fierce and fierce momentum of the more than 20000 Qiang people are forced back.


    When we meet in a narrow road on the battlefield, we have to kill each other.


    Killing is the only way to suppress everything.


    From the beginning, the killing of the flying bear army broke up the Qiang people''s formation. Gradually, the fierce killing has made countless Qiang people afraid of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    I''m afraid of being killed.


    One by one, the Qiang soldiers were lured by money and kept rushing forward, but now they were killed by the town. They were all in a panic.


    The massive recession began.


    This scene fell into Han Sui''s eyes. Han Sui''s face was dignified and his eyebrows were wrinkled. He did not expect that more than 20000 Qiang people were killed and injured by the combined attack of bow, arrow and spear.


    In particular, when Zhang Xiu dispatched thousands of troops to attack the left and right wings, the Qiang people began to rout.


    You know, it''s more than 20000 people.


    But still defeated.


    Han Sui''s eyes swept across the front battlefield and saw Yan Xing, the leader of the battle. When he saw Yan behaving Zhang Xiu and killing Qiang people with his soldiers, Han then clenched his fist with an angry look on his face.


    Damn it!


    Yan Xing, damn it!


    He betrayed him and slaughtered the Qiang soldiers under his command.


    Han Sui took a deep breath and suppressed the panic in his heart. He didn''t have much to fear, because none of his elite soldiers had come into use.


    "Qu Yan!"Han then gave a loud order.


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Qu Yan answers with a hug.


    Qu Yan is an important general under Han Sui''s command. After Yan Xing left, Qu Yan is now the soldier in command of the army, as Han Sui''s right arm. In particular, Qu Yan was originally from Liangzhou, and Han Sui was a native.


    Under such circumstances, Han Sui trusted Qu Yan very much.


    Han then ordered: "you lead 5000 elite soldiers to attack Zhang Xiu''s right-wing soldiers, defeat them, and attack Zhang Xiu''s former army with Qiang people."


    "Here it is


    After the performance was ordered, the soldiers were mobilized to rush out.


    Han Sui said once again, "Jiang Shi!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Jiang Shi also gave an answer.


    He is a new recruit of Han Sui, good at two hammers, invincible in the battlefield.


    Han Sui said: "you lead 5000 soldiers to attack the left-wing soldiers sent by Zhang Xiu. You are the same as Qu Yan, you are also to defeat them. Then, he went straight to Zhang Xiu''s former army. "


    "I''ll do it


    Jiang Shi was ordered to dispatch troops quickly.


    After Han Sui and Jiang Shi sent out their own troops, ten thousand elite soldiers suddenly swarmed into the battlefield. The ten thousand elite soldiers entered the battlefield. Seeing this, the retreating Qiang people began to raise their momentum again. Instead of retreating, they fought quickly.


    Soon, the two sides fought on the battlefield.


    It is said that it is divided into left and right wings, but gradually after the fight, it has been confused. No matter Qu Yan or Jiang Shi, they all joined the army and began to attack the flying bear army sent by Zhang Xiu.


    Six thousand flying bears, still fighting to the death.


    In addition, the long Gunners no longer stagnated and began to march forward.


    The two sides fought and fought.


    When Shi a took his soldiers to kill, he saw the war between the two sides burning. He kept killing Xiliang soldiers, but his eyes were wandering, and he saw Jiang Shi not far away.


    Chiang Kai Shek rushed to the front on horseback. With two hammers in his hand, he kept killing the soldiers of the bear army. Shi a was close to Jiang Shi''s horse, and his sword was quickly handed out.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp blade penetrated directly into the belly of Chiang''s horse. After a stab, Shi''a quickly retreated and continued to kill. The horse at Chiang''s crotch went mad and kept struggling, throwing him off his horse.


    Shi A''s best skill is footwork. At the moment of Chiang''s landing, Ge killed the soldiers in front of him and quickly approached with his sword.


    "Whew!"


    The Sword Pierced out and went straight to Jiang Shi''s chest.


    In his hand, Chiang Kai Shek swung the hammer and shot it. Once the hammer hits the sword, it will be enough to fly it. However, Shi A''s mouth is a smile, more disdainful look.


    At the moment when Chiang Kai Shek''s right hammer was wielded, Shi A''s sword waved falsely. At that time, he changed his moves, turned sideways to Chiang Kai Shek''s right, and cut off the sword directly.


    "Yes


    The sword fell on Jiang Shi''s right hand.


    Chiang''s whole hand was cut off from his forearm, and his palm and hammer fell down.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Jiang Shi''s mouth. The red blood splashed out from his arms. Under the severe pain, Chiang''s body trembled. It was just a short shiver. Shi A''s long sword came out again and penetrated directly into Jiang Shi''s heart.


    When the sword was drawn out, Jiang Shi fell to the ground.


    Shi a didn''t look at the dead Jiang Shi and killed again with his sword.

 Chapter 562

    Chiang''s death did not cause much trouble in the army, but the 6000 soldiers under Chiang''s command were much weaker. After Jiang Shi was killed, Qu Yan saw that the situation was not good. He stopped attacking and tried to stabilize the situation.


    This situation falls in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Zhang Xiu has a faint smile on her lips. She believes in the fighting power of the flying bear army and the strength of the long spear formation.


    It''s enough to defeat.


    And the fighting on the battlefield fell into Han Sui''s eyes. Han Sui saw that the Qiang people''s offensive had subsided and that the soldiers had lost their offensive. In particular, he found that his army had begun to be beaten again, and his heart began to get angry.


    He has invested more than 20000 Qiang people and 10000 elite soldiers, but Zhang Xiu''s army is like a towering green mountain, which is not affected at all.


    What about Ma Chao?


    Ma Chao, why don''t you fight.


    Han Sui has already invested 10000 elite troops. If he retreats at this time and retreats into the city of Longxian, it is definitely not cost-effective. Especially in the case of fighting, he retreated into the city at this time, and Zhang Xiu might also follow him into the city.


    Han then fought outside the city.


    This time, Zhang Xiu was ready for a thorough defeat.


    I didn''t expect that all the Qiang soldiers were sent up, but they haven''t won yet. But the sword was out of its sheath. At this time, Han Sui could not withdraw. If he withdrew now, the dead soldiers would be dead in vain, and Han Sui would not be reconciled.


    In order to save the situation, Han sent 10000 elite soldiers into the battlefield again. With the ten thousand soldiers sent up, Huang Zhong also quickly dispatched the flying bear army to fight. Apart from the flying bear army, the rest of the soldiers have been killed.


    Thirty thousand flying bears have been put into the battlefield.


    Both sides are outside the city, fighting.


    When the two sides exchanged troops, two miles behind Zhang Xiu''s army was a remote place.


    It''s a long way from the official way.


    This is the place where Ma Chao''s army is stationed. All of Ma Chao''s 30000 elite troops are stationed here.


    "Newspaper!"


    A cavalry horse came running.


    The cavalry came to Ma Chao and reported: "general, the fighting outside the city has continued. Zhang Xiu''s army, with a sharp step, defeated Han Sui''s Qiang soldiers. Han then invested nearly 20000 elite troops into the battlefield, and Zhang Xiu''s army was also elite. However, under Zhang Xiu''s command, there are still more than half of the troops left unused. "


    Ma Chao''s eyes showed a thoughtful look.


    He thought about when to send troops.


    In Ma Chao''s view, he does not want to send troops for the time being, but also wants to weaken Han Sui''s forces. Han Sui wanted to weaken his power. Why didn''t he want to weaken Han Sui?


    Both sides have their own plans.


    Ma Chao waved his hand and asked the sentinel to step down, but he had not given the order to send troops.


    Pound said, "Lord, I think I can send troops."


    Ma Chao said: "why?"


    Pound said: "in today''s situation, Han Sui has sent 20000 elite soldiers to fight, and even sent Qiang soldiers. At this time, it''s really a great opportunity to weaken Han Sui. "


    "But once han Sui couldn''t resist it, after Han Sui withdrew, we could not stand alone and attack Zhang Xiu. Because after Han Sui''s defeat, we couldn''t stop Zhang Xiu. "


    "Now, Han Sui''s strength has been weakened and Zhang Xiu has been resisted by Han Sui. On this premise, we can send troops. If we don''t, it will be too late. "


    Pound said: "this is not the time for internal strife. To defeat Zhang Xiu, we must cooperate sincerely and unite."


    "Hoo!"


    Ma Chao let out a long breath.


    He nodded and said, "what Ling Ming said is very true. I almost forgot the important thing. Our primary task now is to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army first. After defeating Zhang Xiu, we''ll think about destroying Han Sui. "


    "My Lord is wise," said pound


    Ma Chao continued: "Ling Ming, you are in command of 20000 infantry, and I will lead 10000 elite cavalry to attack Zhang Xiu''s rear immediately. As long as the rear area of Zhang Xiu is in chaos, we will have a chance to win this battle. "


    "I''ll do it


    Pound gave his fist.


    "Let''s go!"


    Ma Chao turned over and got on the horse. He took the golden gun of tiger head Zhan and quickly led the troops to fight.


    "Da! "Da!"


    The rapid sound of horse''s hooves resounded across the ground.


    Ma Chao led ten thousand elite riders to go straight to the county seat of Longxian county. After the cavalry came out, pound followed with his infantry.


    The two armies are fighting out.


    After Ma Chao was killed, the fighting outside Longxian city has become increasingly fierce. Under the fierce attack of 30000 Feixiong troops, Han Sui''s soldiers and Qiang soldiers were in danger. But Han Sui did not get the news that Ma Chao sent troops, so that Han Sui became more and more anxious.


    Even Han Sui came up with the idea of withdrawing troops.


    It''s almost unstoppable.


    There were only 20000 elite soldiers left beside him, which was Han Sui''s capital. If Ma Chao doesn''t come out, Han Sui will throw all the remaining soldiers into the battlefield. In the end, his army is gone, but Ma Chao has preserved his strength, which is the most uneconomic."I can''t hold it. I can''t hold it."


    Han Sui murmured to himself.


    Zhuang Zechen said in a voice: "Lord, if you insist for a while, you can still insist now. What if Ma Chao comes after we retreat? If that''s the case, it''s too bad. "


    Han Sui gritted his teeth and said, "insist, insist Damn, how can you insist on fighting to this point? Ma Chao is a son of a bitch. "


    Zhuang Ze sighed in his heart.


    Now, he doesn''t know what to do.


    Han Sui took a deep breath and said, "if we can''t wait for Ma Chao after another quarter of an hour, then we will withdraw."


    "My Lord is wise!"


    When Zhuang Ze heard Han Sui''s words, he began to flatter him.


    Now, indeed, it is difficult. If we can''t wait for Ma Chao''s reinforcements, we will not be able to hold on. It is impossible for Han Sui to devote all his troops to the battlefield.


    This is not Han Sui''s style.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a sentry Trooper came running.


    With an eager look on his face, the sentry came to Han Sui and reported: "general, Ma Chao has sent troops. Ma Chao himself led 10000 cavalry in the front and 20000 infantry in the back. He was killing us in our direction. "


    "Well, here we are at last."


    Han Sui''s spirit was uplifted and his heart was full of hope. At this moment, Han Sui no longer worry, he loudly ordered the soldiers to attack, let the soldiers continue to attack.


    In order to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, Han Sui even sent 10000 elite soldiers to the battlefield again.


    So far, he has only 10000 elite soldiers left.


    For this war, Han Sui has dispatched most of his troops.


    Han Sui has given up everything.


    Han Sui''s actions fall into Huang Zhong''s eyes. When Huang Zhong noticed Han Sui''s action, he dispatched 10000 regular troops under Zhang Yan to fight, and put in 10000 troops again.


    At the same time, the Sentinels arranged around also withdrew. Sentry came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Qi, Taiwei, Ma Chao''s cavalry appeared in our rear two miles away. Ma Chao is a orthodox commander, 10000 fine cavalry and 20000 infantry. He will kill us directly. "


    "Well, here we are at last."


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of surprise.


    This battle has finally come.


    The decisive battle is coming.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and said in a deep voice, "Hansheng, you will command the war. I will lead the Langya camp of Chen Dao. In this battle, I led 10000 Langya Battalion soldiers to meet Ma Chao''s 10000 cavalry. "


    "I''ll do it


    Huang Zhong responded directly.


    He knows Zhang Xiu''s temperament, since the decision, there is no need to persuade, just listen to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. What''s more, Zhang Xiu is powerful, and he doesn''t have to worry about her safety.

 Chapter 563

    Zhang Xiu and Deng Zhan ride after the wind and come to the place where ten thousand soldiers of Langya camp line up. At this time, the front bear army is fighting with Han Sui''s army, shouting and killing. However, the elite of the rear Langya camp stood in awe. The neat Langya camp is very sharp, showing the spirit of killing.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at all the soldiers in the Langya camp and said in a loud voice: "many of you veterans have experienced the battle of Chencang county. At that time, one thousand cavalry of Langya battalion fought against four thousand excellent cavalry of Ma Chao. At the end of the battle, none of them surrendered or retreated. "


    "In that battle, I was killed and wounded by many people. There are countless sons who are brave and fearless of death and try their best to fight to the death. They died in the hands of Ma Chao''s cavalry. "


    "I will never forget the hatred of the past."


    "Today, Ma Chao led another 10000 elite riders to kill us in the rear."


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu almost tried her best to roar, roaring: "Ma Chao has come again, today is our chance to revenge. If you don''t take revenge, you will be the son of Langya camp in vain. Today, follow me to kill the enemy and take revenge. "


    "Revenge


    In the crowd, soldiers were shouting.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu said that Ma Chao had killed him again, the few elite soldiers of Langya camp who had survived and the elite cavalry who had participated in the first World War at that time were all red eyed and shouting.


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts echoed in the army of Langya camp.


    Langya camp is one.


    Every glory is a glory, and every loss is a loss. All the soldiers in Langya camp mourn for the dead soldiers and have to avenge themselves.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu roars and drives the horse out.


    Ten thousand soldiers of Langya camp followed Zhang Xiu and launched a sprint.


    "Da! "Da!"


    The sound of horse''s hooves sounded, one by one, trampling on the ground, splashing dust.


    Ten thousand have been killed.


    Zhang Xiu with cavalry out, and Ma Chao''s fine riding is opposite. The distance between the two sides is not far, the time is not long, the distance between the two sides is not far.


    On the official road, smoke and dust are everywhere.


    Looking far away, Zhang Xiuyuan saw the cavalry killed and Ma Chao''s cavalry in the distance.


    "Shotgun, projection!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered.


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, all the cavalry of the ten thousand Langya camp spread out. The cavalry of Langya camp quickly took out their short guns from their pockets, held them in their hands and projected them forward.


    "Whew!"


    Thousands of short guns, whistling in the air, went straight to the cavalry where Ma Chao was.


    The distance between the two sides was very close, and the short gun that was projected fell into Ma Chao''s army in a twinkling of an eye. The cavalry under Ma Chao''s command all waved their swords and fired short guns.


    Ding! Ding!!!


    The sound of impact, one after another.


    Rao was so. Many cavalry were shot by short guns and fell to the ground. However, the shot of the shotgun was only a wave, and the distance between the two sides began to narrow.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was raised and he roared: "change


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the 10000 cavalry under Zhang Xiu''s command quickly turned into a conical formation. Zhang Xiu is the tip of this sharp cone. She is rushing forward quickly. The rest of the cavalry, in turn, formed a cone formation.


    In a flash, Zhang Xiu was already in contact with Ma Chao''s cavalry. He rushed in the front, in the hand overlord gun, mentions then mercilessly hits.


    "Pa!"


    There was a dull crash, and then it started.


    The overlord''s gun swept on the body of a cavalry of Xiliang army, which immediately made the other side fly upside down.


    Zhang Xiu joined Ma Chao''s Xiliang army.


    "Revenge


    Zhang Xiu shouts loudly.


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    One by one, the cavalry kept shouting.


    All the cavalry of Langya camp have penetrated into Ma Chao''s cavalry.


    No one can stop them.


    In such a conical formation, the rest of the scattered cavalry could not be rescued in time, so that the cavalry in the center were killed one after another.


    Ma Chao saw this scene, clenched his teeth and ordered: "encircle, kill it for me."


    "Kill


    Ma Chao gave a loud order.


    At Ma Chao''s command, the scattered cavalry began to encircle the center.


    The two sides fought on a vast battlefield.


    Fighting continues.


    However, the cavalry of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu''s command, one by one inspired by Zhang Xiu, are all like beating chicken blood to avenge the dead soldiers in the past.


    Since the establishment of Langya camp, it has been invincible. The only time was when he was besieged by Ma Chao and fought with Ma Chao''s 4000 elite riders with 1000 pairs.At that time, Langya camp did not retreat.


    Such a thing is well known to the soldiers of Langya camp. Now, when we meet Ma Chao''s cavalry, all the soldiers of Langya camp have been fighting forward with all their strength.


    The two sides fought on the battlefield. As the fighting continued, the Langya camp quickly gained the advantage. Ma Chao''s cavalry was able to maintain their formation at the beginning, but soon they had been in rout.


    "Stand in the way, attack me!"


    Ma Chao orders loudly, but Ma Chao is powerless to fight back.


    After the fighting between the two sides, Ma Chao was defeated, so he had to retreat, intending to resist with the help of Pound''s forces. However, in the case of cavalry fleeing, even pound''s forces could not stop the situation.


    Especially in the follow-up, 10000 infantry from Langya battalion were killed. The two sides are fighting on the battlefield, and Ma Chao''s 30000 elite troops are totally unstoppable.


    This is no longer a level.


    Pound came to Ma Chao''s side with a slightly nervous look on his face and said: "Lord, the cavalry under Zhang Xiu is fierce. Especially the rest of the infantry, they''re attacking fast. We can''t stop it. We have to retreat. "


    Ma Chao''s face was dispirited.


    Lost!


    His army is defeated again!


    It''s ten thousand to ten thousand. His cavalry is totally invincible.


    The cavalry under Zhang Xiu''s command, one by one, whimpered and rushed, just like a fierce wolf. His cavalry were all veterans on the battlefield, but they were thoroughly counselled in front of Zhang Xiu''s Langya camp.


    Completely defeated!


    Ma Chao looked at pound and said in a loud voice, "Ling Ming, we are defeated in this battle again. Next, where to retreat? "


    "Go and meet Han Sui first."


    Pound''s face was full of wisdom and said in a deep voice, "this is the only way to go. Let''s meet with Han Sui first and then see how Han Sui responds. "


    "Good!"


    Ma Chao nodded.


    In today''s situation, Ma Chao is also invincible. When you meet the cavalry of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu''s command, each cavalry has red eyes, as if he killed the other party''s parents. It''s absolutely terrifying.


    It''s murderous. It''s creepy.


    Even Ma Chao was shocked to see the state of the cavalry of Langya camp.


    "Withdraw, leave and rush to Longxian."


    Ma Chao gave the order.


    With the order issued, Ma Chao has turned the direction. Instead of fighting with the soldiers of Langya camp under Zhang Xiu''s command, he turned his direction and made a detour to the place where Han Sui was.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Ma Chao retreated quickly while he was on his way.


    His cavalry and infantry also withdrew quickly from the battlefield and did not dare to fight again. However, such a retreat is tantamount to a rout. The army is defeated like a mountain. The soldiers who fall behind are directly covered up and killed.

 Chapter 564

    "Kill


    "It''s today to kill Ma Chao!"


    "Revenge, revenge!"


    One by one, the elite cavalry of Langya camp and the infantry of Langya camp began to shout loudly to cover up the fleeing Ma soldiers. It was the morale of the soldiers in Langya camp that was high, and the Ma''s army kept on fleeing, which made the Ma''s army lose a lot.


    The cavalry under Ma Chao''s command suffered countless casualties.


    So did Pound''s infantry.


    However, Ma Chao and pound can''t change much in the face of this situation. Two people can only take soldiers quickly retreat, to the direction of Longxian. But in fact, the war outside Longxian was not good for Han Sui.


    Huang Zhong''s Feixiong soldiers, as well as his 10000 regular soldiers, have been fighting against Han Sui''s forces. Up to now, Han Sui''s 30000 elite soldiers are useless, even the last 10000 elite soldiers are sent up.


    Han Sui is now like a gambler.


    He gave everything.


    Send all the troops to the battlefield, hoping to defeat Zhang Xiu and win the war.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    Han Sui gave a loud order.


    "Five hundred dollars for killing one."


    "Kill ten people, and you will be promoted to three levels!"


    Han Sui constantly increased his weight, intending to enhance the combat effectiveness of his soldiers by increasing the reward. But Rao is so. His soldiers and Qiang soldiers are already at a disadvantage, and the situation is not easy to be optimistic.


    Han Sui looked at Zhuang Ze and asked, "Sir, where''s Ma Chao? Where did Ma Chao go. It is clear that Ma Chao has entered the battlefield, but he has not defeated Zhang Xiu''s cavalry. Up to now, I haven''t come to join us. "


    Zhuang Ze said: "Lord, there is no news yet."


    Han Sui gritted his teeth and said, "Ma Chao is such a bastard. If we don''t defeat Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, we can''t hold on."


    At this moment, Han Sui was very nervous.


    He was worried about the situation.


    If he is defeated in this war, all that Han Sui has will be completely wiped out, which Han Sui does not want to see.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, the sentry Pegasus came running.


    The look on the sentry''s face was full of worry and panic. He reported: "general, it''s not good. Ma Chao''s 10000 elite riders were defeated completely. Ma Chao''s infantry were also killed. Now Ma Chao is leading his cavalry and infantry in our direction. "


    Hum!!


    In Han Sui''s mind, all of a sudden, there was a roar and a buzz. In front of him, he felt dizzy. If it wasn''t for Zhuang Ze, he quickly stretched out his hand to hold Han Sui. I''m afraid Han Sui would faint on the ground.


    Lost!


    Ma Chao was defeated!


    Ma Chao was defeated and he was at a disadvantage.


    This means that, in the battle of Longxian county and the battle with Zhang Xiu, he and Han then gave up everything, but now it''s nothing. Not only did he get nothing, he lost everything.


    He''s completely defeated!


    Han Sui''s heart was also flustered for a moment.


    "Ma Chao, you are bad for me."


    Han Sui looked to the battlefield, his soldiers, has shown the appearance of rout. Under this premise, he and the soldiers under his command will stick to it for more than an hour at most. At that time, his soldiers will be defeated, unable to stop the decline.


    Han Sui''s heart is bleeding.


    What to do?


    Today''s him, how to deal with himself.


    Han Sui Gudong swallows a mouthful of saliva, and his heart suddenly feels incomparable regret.


    All this was provoked by him. When he saw that Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao were at war, he was worried. When he saw that Hedong was attacked by high cadres, he had ambition. So Han Sui and Ma Chao united and took the initiative to attack Chencang, intending to carve up Guanzhong.


    But Han Sui did not expect that Yuan Shao would lose so simply.


    You know, Yuan Shao has a hundred thousand troops.


    But yuan Shaozhen was defeated.


    Han Sui thought in his heart that if he didn''t provoke Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu would be in Guanzhong, and he would not kill Liangzhou. Now it was too late for him to regret.


    Han Sui looked at Zhuang Ze and said in a deep voice, "military adviser, what should we do now?"


    Zhuang Ze said: "Lord, withdraw!"


    "Ah


    Han Sui heard Zhuang Ze''s words and exclaimed.


    Retreat!


    Once he leaves Longxian, he has nothing. Because Han Sui''s food, equipment, money, etc. were all stored in Longxian city. Han Sui himself to Longxian, also think can hold, so all the material, all hoard Longxian city.


    To retreat now is to throw everything away.


    Zhuang Ze understood Han Sui''s idea and said, "Lord, we don''t have time to go back to the city. If we retreat into the city now and Zhang Xiu attacks repeatedly, we will not be able to break through from the city. "


    "It''s not cost-effective to put yourself in it for the sake of food.""Please think twice!"


    Zhuangze continued: "the Lord is in Xiliang and has a high prestige. He has a close relationship with the Qiang king of Baima Qiang. We are in a bad situation. We can only withdraw from Longxian county and go to Wudu County to join baimaqiang. With the help of the power of baimaqiang, we can deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu!"


    "Damn Ma Chao!"


    After two successive curses, Han then looked at the rotten battlefield and was extremely disappointed. He ordered: "retreat, retreat!"


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds on the battlefield.


    Han then turned his horse, took Zhuang Ze and others, and quickly retreated.


    As soon as Han Sui retreated, his soldiers, as well as the rest of the Qiang soldiers, also retreated and did not dare to stay. All Han Sui''s soldiers ran away in a hurry, and their faces were in panic.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong saw Han then retreat, under the order to attack.


    "Kill Han Sui, today, kill him!"


    Huang Zhong orders loudly.


    At this time, all the conventional troops went into the battlefield, and Zhang Ya and Gao Lan led the troops to attack.


    In addition, cavalry began to cover up.


    "Kill


    After all, there are some cavalry in the bear army and the regular army. This was approved by Zhang Xiu earlier. Although these cavalry are not many, they can play a very strong combat effectiveness when they are sent to cover up the enemy.


    On the whole battlefield, one-sided slaughter began to appear.


    Han Sui''s army was defeated like a mountain.


    After Han Suigang retreated, the cavalry led by Ma Chao and pound also retreated outside Longxian. When Ma Chao saw that Han Sui''s army had been defeated, he looked alarmed because his wife was still in Longxian city.


    "Xuan''er, xuan''er is still in the city." Ma Chao looked at pound and said in a loud voice, "Ling Ming, xuan''er is still in the city."


    Xuaner is Ma Chao''s wife, Han.


    Its name is Han Xuan.


    Pound heard Ma Chao''s words and said in a loud voice, "Lord, I can''t help it. Han fled and left. We''re going into the city now. We''ll be surrounded immediately. All around are Zhang Xiu''s troops, and there are Zhang Xiu''s cavalry in the rear. We can''t delay. "


    After a pause, pound said: "Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, in particular, look at us one by one, as if the wolf saw the meat. Even they are all red eyed. They want to kill us soon. We can''t delay. We have to retreat. We can''t manage so much. "


    "No, no!"


    Ma Chao was anxious and worried.


    That''s his woman.


    That''s his spiritual sustenance!


    He didn''t want to give up his own woman and just leave.


    Pound took a deep breath and advised: "if you want to save your mother, you have to surrender to Zhang Xiu. Only in this way can the mother be safe, or she has no choice. "


    Ma Chao was dumb.


    Surrender to Zhang Xiu, but he doesn''t want to.


    Pound once again advised: "Lord, the two armies are at war, and each of them is their own master. Even if Zhang Xiu catches her, she can''t kill her. Lord, withdraw. Withdraw first


    "Ah


    Ma Chao''s shrill roar.


    At this moment, Ma Chao''s heart seemed to be dripping blood, incomparable anger. He never thought that his wife would be abandoned by him. But he had no way, because once he stopped, he would be surrounded by Zhang Xiu''s cavalry.


    At that time, he can''t do anything.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Ma Chao roared like he was crazy.


    Pound retreated with Ma Chao, but he sighed. Today''s situation, can only evacuate, unable to take into account everything in Longxian city.

 Chapter 565

    Zhang Xiu''s Langya camp, flying bear army and regular army all joined in the killing. On the official road outside Longxian County, there were endless soldiers charging, constantly killing Ma Chao and Han Sui''s troops, killing countless people.


    There are countless soldiers, dare not resist, kneel to surrender.


    On the battlefield, Zhang Xiu won.


    The battle lasted from the beginning to the evening when it was dark. When the army retreated to Longxian, it was easy to enter the city. Even Han Sui fled, and a few soldiers in Longxian did not dare to resist, so they surrendered directly.


    Zhang Xiu camped outside the city, while he took a rest in the Chinese Army''s tent, waiting for Huang Zhong and others to count the results. The results of this war are really magnificent.


    In the early morning, Huang Zhong and Zhang Xi entered in a hurry.


    The two are responsible for different things.


    Huang Zhong looked happy and reported: "Lord, our army has killed more than 10000 soldiers in this battle. Six thousand of them are flying bear soldiers, two thousand of them are regular soldiers, and two thousand of them are cavalry of Langya camp. "


    After a pause, Huang Zhong said: "in this war, countless people have been killed. According to rough statistics, it is at least 40000 enemies. There are more than 20000 prisoners. As for the rest, most of them fled, and many left with Han Sui and Ma Chao. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu suffered losses, but it was a complete victory.


    Han Sui''s troops were almost wiped out.


    The reason why the flying bear army suffered the greatest losses was that it was the flying bear army as the main force and the conventional army as the auxiliary force to fight with the Han Sui army outside Longxian county. The loss of Langya camp was directly caused by fighting with Ma Chao''s cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "those who died in the war and those who made contributions are all registered. Those who deserve a reward must be rewarded; those who deserve a pension must be given a pension; do not be lazy. "


    "I understand


    At this time, Zhang Ya stood up and said: "Lord, after the army entered the city, they seized countless money and grain. The amount of money involved is numerous. Without a day or two, we can''t figure it out. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "where''s the grain?"


    He is most concerned about food, because Liu Ba once said that food is very tight. If enough grain is seized, Zhang Xiu can support the war with war and is not worried about the shortage of grain.


    Zhang replied, "the grain seized in this battle is as much as 150000 stones. This batch of grain is Han Sui''s property. Han Sui''s wife and children, but disappeared, could not be found. But we caught Ma Chao''s wife, Han Xuan, in custody in the army. Han Xuan is Han Sui''s daughter. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "make a careful inquiry about the relationship between Ma Chao and Han Xuan."


    Zhang Maxiao said: "I have made it clear that Han Xuan and Ma Chao respect each other and love each other very much. Although Han Xuan is Han Xuan''s daughter, she is always in favor of Ma Chao. The most important thing is that Han Xuan is pregnant and has Ma Chao''s child. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face is full of bright smile.


    Han Xuan is pregnant, which is a sharp weapon against Ma Chao.


    Of course, it depends on Ma Chao''s mind. If Ma Chao is sad about the beauty pass, it will be easy to deal with Ma Chao this time. If Ma Chao''s heart is as cold as iron, regardless of Han Xuan''s life or death, then capturing Han Xuan will not be of great use to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you two, seize the time to reorganize the army. We conquered Longxian, took a two-day rest in Longxian, and then continued to advance. If we destroy the forces of Han Sui and Ma Chao, we can wipe out all parties step by step. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang jaw and Huang Zhong should go down together.


    Two people turn round to leave, go busy oneself in the matter of the hand.


    Zhang Xiu was sitting in the tent with a bright smile on her face.


    The overall situation of this war has been decided. Han Sui and Ma Chao retreated, fully 30 miles away from Longxian, and then stopped. No matter Han Sui or Ma Chao, there are not many soldiers left.


    When Han Sui was in Longxian County, he had 40000 elite soldiers and even recruited more than 20000 Qiang soldiers.


    Today, Han Sui is surrounded by less than 3000 people.


    In the first World War of Longxian County, his soldiers suffered losses and died too much.


    Ma Chao''s cavalry and infantry also suffered huge losses. Today, the number of cavalry under Ma Chao''s command is less than 2000, and those who die are those who flee. The number of infantry of Ma Chao is only over 3000.


    Generally speaking, Ma Chao has more than 5000 soldiers, and his strength is slightly stronger than that of Han Sui.


    Han Sui was furious in his heart. Looking at Ma Chao, he roared: "Ma Chao, you are such a waste. This will be outside Longxian City, blocking Zhang Xiu''s army. Let you lead the cavalry to attack the rear of Zhang Xiu, you failed. There are ten thousand elite cavalry, and you have twenty thousand infantry. Under such circumstances, you fail. You said, "what''s the use of you!"


    Ma chaoleng''s face, positive color way: "Han Sui, this can blame me?"


    Han Sui said, "who do you blame?"


    Ma Chao said in a deep voice: "who doesn''t know that Zhang Xiu''s cavalry is unparalleled in both vertical and horizontal directions. It''s extremely powerful. Can''t it be accomplished? Am I deliberately unable to resist and let Zhang Xiu cover up?""That''s what you are," Han Sui said


    Ma Chao said: "I, Ma Chao, didn''t stop Zhang Xiu''s cavalry or Zhang Xiu''s attack. But did you block Zhang Xiu''s attack? If you block Zhang Xiu''s attack and counterattack Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, even if I lose, this battle will not be so embarrassed to flee. "


    Han then clenched his fist.


    Ma Chao continued: "it''s too much for you to blame me for all the responsibility. What''s more, you have 40000 elite soldiers and more than 20000 Qiang soldiers. All Qiang people are fearless of death. Your 40000 elite soldiers are also veterans on the battlefield. Why, you can''t even destroy Zhang Xiu''s 30000 or 40000 troops, but you are defeated first. "


    The expression on Han Sui''s face immediately froze.


    Arrogance, slightly relieved.


    Han Sui, however, was not a gas-saving lamp. He snorted and continued: "the earliest plan is that you Ma Chao''s cavalry will attack Zhang Xiu''s rear as a surprise. But you failed to achieve your goal. Under such circumstances, it''s not your responsibility. Whose responsibility is that? "


    Ma Chao said: "Han Sui, I have only 30000 people, and my fighting capacity is limited. I didn''t win, but you, Han Sui, didn''t either. You are also Zhang Xiu''s loser. "


    "A defeated general like you is not qualified to blame me."


    "Between you and me, it''s just a cooperative relationship, not a subordinate relationship. If you don''t think it''s appropriate, it''s a big deal. You are too self righteous to accuse me out of thin air. "


    Ma Chao is very strong.


    He doesn''t want to be accused, let alone take the blame.


    "You, you..."


    When Han Sui heard Ma Chao''s words, he was so angry that he stamped his feet and said in a loud voice: "my savings for many years, all my money and food are in Longxian. Now it''s all given to Zhang Xiu. I hate it! "


    When it comes to the sadness in his heart, Han Sui burst into tears. In Chencang County, Han Sui was defeated by Zhang Xiu, but after all, he was only defeated. When he returned to his hometown, he could still win over his troops again with food and money, and rally his spirit again.


    Now, it can''t.


    How can we recruit soldiers without money and food?


    Ma Chao snorted and said, "if you, Han Sui, don''t fight outside the city, but sit inside the city and defend with the help of the city wall, why? As long as you resist the attack of Zhang Xiu in the city, Longxian will not be lost. Xuaner will not be reduced to the city. Han Sui, it''s all your fault. "


    "You, you..."


    Han Sui didn''t expect Ma Chao to hit him.


    It''s disgusting!


    Seeing this, Zhuang Ze quickly went forward and said, "Lord, General Ma, it''s so far. It''s meaningless to blame each other. Now infighting, can only hurt the enemy, will only let Zhang Xiu happy. Instead of blaming each other, we should consider what to do next. "

 Chapter 566

    Ma Chao''s eyes were sharp and said, "Zhuang Ze, what do you say to do next? Nowadays, if you want food, you have no food, and if you want money, you have no money. Although we still have thousands of people, thousands of people want to compete with Zhang Xiu. It''s just a drop in the bucket. If there is no food and grass to support, these thousands of people are likely to be broken


    Zhuang Ze said: "now the only way is to go to the king of Qiang in Baima. The king of Baima Qiang has a close relationship with his Lord. With the help of the power of Baima Qiang, the situation may be reversed. "


    Ma Chao was silent when he heard it.


    He also knew some Qiang tribes, but they were all small tribes.


    In other words, Ma Chao''s father, Ma Teng, had a good relationship with some Qiang tribes and knew some big tribes. However, Ma Chao ignored the news of Ma Teng, and many Qiang tribes cut off contact with Ma Chao.


    Even though Ma Chao was in Xiliang, he could not contact many Qiang tribes, which made him unable to use the power of Qiang people. On the contrary, Han Sui was able to use the power of Qiang people.


    Zhuang Ze looked at Han Sui again and solemnly said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu conquered Longxian County, but there was no barrier from Longguan. Next, Zhang Xiu will be invincible. "


    "If we can''t cooperate sincerely, we can''t resist Zhang Xiu."


    "Fortunately, Liangzhou is not the Central Plains. In the territory of Liangzhou, the people are fierce and disobey Wang Hua and control. It is not easy for Zhang Xiu to capture Liangzhou. "


    "Now, it can only be the combination of the two sides to resist Zhang Xiu."


    Zhuang Ze said: "otherwise, Zhang Xiu will become a prisoner in Liangzhou, whether he is the Lord or General Ma."


    Han Sui said, "if it wasn''t for the fall of Longguan, how could it be here?"


    Ma Chao said tit for tat: "if it wasn''t for you, Han Sui was calculating, how could it be. In the final analysis, all this is caused by you, Han Sui, not me. "


    Han Sui clenched his teeth and was angry.


    Ma Chao even accused him. He thought it was Ma Chao''s fault.


    As soon as Zhuang Ze saw Han Sui''s anger, he quickly stopped him and said, "Lord, are we still at war with Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes!"


    Han then made a firm answer.


    This time, he suffered a big loss in Zhang Xiu''s hands. How can he swallow this evil breath.


    Zhuangze said: "since there is still a war to be fought, please let go of your bad feelings. No matter the Lord or General Ma, they should put aside their ties and their enmity. Otherwise, there is no need to fight Zhang Xiu. "


    Han Sui and Ma Chao looked at each other, hummed and looked away from each other.


    Zhuang Ze was helpless in his eyes.


    It''s really tricky!


    On the outside, Zhang Xiu is covetous. On the inside, China, South Korea and Ma Chao are hostile to each other.


    Zhuang Ze said: "now, we''re going directly to the tribe of baimaqiang. We should strive to arrive at baimaqiang as soon as possible and solve the current predicament as soon as possible. Otherwise, we may become Zhang Xiu''s prisoners. "


    "Let''s go!"


    When Han took the lead, he gave the order.


    "Let''s go!"


    Ma Chao also gave a loud order.


    A team of less than 10000 people went all the way west without any delay.


    Shaodangqiang is located in Jincheng county.


    The area occupied by shaodangqiang has abundant water and grass and vast terrain. Today, although the Qiang people living in shaodangqiang live as tribes, they are actually different from the Huns.


    Huns and Wuhuan people lived by water and grass. But the Qiang people in Liangzhou settled down in this area. In addition to grazing, they also cultivated.


    Today''s Qiang people, to a large extent, are influenced by the Han people.


    Shaodang, the king of Qiang, is called midang.


    This man is in his early 40s, but he looks old, his temples are white, and his beard under his jaw is white, which gives people the feeling that he is over 60 years old. However, midang has a high prestige in the whole shaodang Qiang nationality.


    In the early years of shaodangqiang, there were only a few tribes, but more than a thousand people. But today''s shaodang Qiang has tens of thousands of people, and countless tribes gather here. Its strength is very strong, no less than that of Baima Qiang in Wudu County.


    This is the credit of midang.


    As the king of Qiang, midang integrated the whole shaodang Qiang, and developed its strength with the help of the power of the Han court, so that it has today''s scale.


    Tribal center, in the king''s tent.


    Midang''s hair was loose and he was in fur. Now it''s may, the weather has already begun to warm, but midang is very afraid of the cold, sitting alone. After all, the northwest is a cold and bitter place, and most of the Qiang people who burn the local people live for less than 30 or 40 years.


    Midang is now in his early 40s, and he is considered a relatively long-lived person. He sat in the king''s tent, squinting and closing his eyes.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the king''s tent.


    A nearly 50 year old Han with white hair and beard entered. He was dressed in coarse linen and a fur robe. He put his hands in his sleeves and bowed to midang after entering.


    His name is Jiang Ye.


    He is from Liangzhou.


    Although Jiang Ye was a Han nationality, he could not become an official without fame. He was eventually recruited by midang and became his counselor. It can be said that MI Dang can have today, and Jiang Ye has made great achievements.Jiang Ye is close to Han people. At Jiang Ye''s suggestion, midang allowed Qiang people to intermarry with Han people and promoted the contact between Han and Qiang people, which further enhanced the strength of shaodang Qiang people.


    Jiang Ye sat down and said slowly, "Your Majesty, this year''s warrior competition among tribes has been arranged. In three or five days at most, people from all tribes will gather and compete near the king''s tent. "


    "Since last year, you''ve been telling us that you want to choose a husband for dor."


    "This news, after nearly a year of fermentation, has countless people looking forward to, waiting for the arrival of this day. Countless people want to be dor''s husband and the king''s son-in-law. "


    Jiang Ye has a smile on his face.


    Choosing a husband for duo''er is a great event for shaodang Qiang.


    Duo''er, the youngest daughter of midang, is the Pearl of shaodang Qiang.


    Although duo''er was only sixteen years old, she was already very graceful. Her name is Jiang Ye. She has been with Jiang Ye since childhood, deeply influenced by Jiang ye, and admires the Han culture.


    Midang stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a smile: "the wedding of duo''er is a grand event in shaodang Qiang. He who wants to marry dor must be a hero. This time, be sure to pick out the real heroes. "


    Jiang ye said: "it should be so."


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a Qiang soldier entered.


    The Qiang soldiers came to Jiang Ye''s side and whispered a word. Jiang Ye waved his hand to let the soldiers back down. Jiang ye turned to midang and reported: "king, Zhang Xiu, the Great Han''s captain, sent envoys outside the tribe and asked to see you."


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    With a look of shock on his face, midang said, "is that the man who killed Yu Fuluo and killed the southern Xiongnu?"


    "Yes


    Jiang Ye nods and answers.


    Mi Dang said in a deep voice: "listen to the news outside, Zhang Xiu is extremely exclusive of foreign people, and she also wants to get rid of Qiang people. Zhang Xiu intends to annihilate US Qiang people. "


    Jiang Ye laughed and said: "king, I have not explained it. It''s just Han Sui''s trick. Han then wanted the Qiang people to hate Zhang Xiu before delivering such a message. Especially recently, Zhang Xiu''s attitude has been heard. When Zhang Xiu arrived in Liangzhou, he wanted to reduce corvee and reduce taxes. Zhang Xiu is very powerful. Why don''t you see his envoys? "


    "All right!"


    Midang thought about it and answered directly.


    Jiang Ye is the person he trusts most. To some extent, Jiang Ye is more important than his son.


    This is the wise man in shaodang Qiang.


    Jiang Ye got the command of midang, and immediately arranged for the soldiers to send orders.

 Chapter 567

    Pang Tong and Chen arrived outside shaodang Qiang''s tribe. He was very surprised. Because the layout of shaodangqiang''s tribe is just like the village of Han people.


    This kind of burning is a surprise.


    Throughout the territory of Liangzhou, there are barren places everywhere. All of a sudden, such an area appeared, which surprised people and even made them feel like a paradise.


    However, Pang Tong noticed the army. Around the whole tribe, there are patrolling troops to ensure the safety of the tribe. If something happens, the soldiers on patrol in the tribe will react immediately.


    Pang Tong waited quietly, but he also observed everything about shaodangqiang.


    Shaodang Qiang has strong strength.


    If shaodangqiang is willing to submit to Zhang Xiu, it will be an opportunity for her. If shaodang Qiang is not willing to surrender, he will become Zhang Xiu''s enemy, which is a hindrance and a fetter.


    A short time later, a Qiang soldier came up and waved his hand to Pang Tong to follow him.


    Pang Tong takes Chen Dao and strides into it.


    From the outside of the tribe, it took nearly two quarters of an hour to enter the position of shaodangqiang''s King tent.


    Along the way, there are countless Qiang people living together. The clothes on these Qiang people are not bad. Moreover, the Qiang people who burn as Qiang people are not yellow and thin. They are all ruddy and have a good life.


    Pang Tong came to the king''s tent, and the swords that he and Chen Dao carried with them were collected by the soldiers at the gate of the king''s tent.


    Then, two talents stride in.


    Pang Tong looked indifferent. After striding in, he arched his hand and said, "I have met the king of Qiang under the command of Tai Wei Zhang."


    Midang looked at Pang Tong.


    In his eyes, he looked like a joker. Han people are the most concerned about appearance, but Pang Tong''s appearance is too bad.


    So much so that MI began to laugh.


    Pang Tong said, "why does the king of Qiang laugh?"


    Midang said: "Zhang Xiu is a vassal with strong strength. If a person like him wants to send an envoy, or at least send someone who looks good, how can he send someone like you. You look so sad. Can it be that Zhang Xiu looks down on Wang and deliberately sends you to be such an insignificant person? "


    When Pang Tong heard the speech, he looked as usual.


    From childhood to adulthood, he was ridiculed by countless people because of his appearance. When he was young, Pang Tong was very concerned. But now, Pang Tong has not cared.


    It''s just a skin bag!


    Most of all, it depends on ability.


    Pang Tong suddenly began to laugh. After laughing, he said, "what the king of Qiang said reveals the ruling strategy of the king of Qiang. People who judge people by their appearance are hard to be successful after all. "


    "As the leader of the tribe, the king of Qiang governs tens of thousands of people. He must have a pair of wise eyes, which can recognize people and distinguish between good and bad. It is a fallacy to judge a person''s good or bad merely by his appearance. "


    "Can the two armies win by appearance?"


    "No!"


    Pang Tong said: "on the battlefield, the strong are respected. Only the people with outstanding strength can win, the people with outstanding strength can live to the end, and the people with outstanding strength can be respected, not embroidered pillows."


    "In the same way, in my case, the king of Qiang only saw my skin, but I advocated Taiwei, but I saw my military strategy of marching and fighting and my ability of governing the local area."


    "From this point of view, although the king of Qiang was the leader of the tribe, it was limited to this."


    Pang Tong''s words are sharp and direct.


    As an envoy, he must protect his own reputation, but also to maintain the prestige of Zhang Xiu.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When midang heard this, he couldn''t help laughing, but his eyes were full of praise.


    He is worthy of being sent by Zhang Xiu.


    A mouth so sharp.


    "Mr. Pang, I misunderstood you. Please forgive me. It''s my fault that I judge people by their appearance. "


    Pang Tong was surprised to hear that.


    Midang apologized directly.


    You know, as the king of shaodang Qiang, midang is the head of the tribe and a person with status. However, it is amazing that midang apologized directly and didn''t care about the face at all.


    This man is not simple.


    Pang Tong played the spirit of twelve points, and said: "the king of Qiang knows his mistakes and can correct them, and there is nothing good about them."


    Midang changed the subject and said, "Mr. Pang came to burn me as a Qiang. What''s the matter?"


    Pang Tong said: "I''m under the command of my Lord. I hope to unite with shaodang Qiang to fight against Han Sui. Han then occupied Longxian County, wantonly killed, bullied the emperor, and abused the people. The Qiang people in Liangzhou have a hard time. The Lord crusaded against Han Sui. When Han Sui was destroyed, the corvee and taxes would be reduced, so that the Qiang people could live and work in peace and contentment. "


    Midang said: "today''s shaodang Qiang people live a rich life and don''t worry about food and clothing."


    Pang Tong said: "the reason why shaodang Qiang is not attacked by Han Sui is that Han Sui dare not attack shaodang Qiang in the face of the Lord''s threat. However, if Han Sui had a foothold in Liangzhou, he would have done something to the Qiang people. "Midang shook his head and said, "I am not afraid of Han Sui."


    With Shao as the strength of Qiang people, all the men in Qiang people are soldiers and can fight against the enemy.


    The shaodang Qiang army is very strong.


    Therefore, MI Dang is not afraid of Han Sui.


    Pang Tong said: "today''s shaodang Qiang is just a corner of Liangzhou. Does the king of Qiang not want to integrate all the Qiang people in Liangzhou and unify the whole Qiang people? "


    "Yes


    Midang laughed and said, "but if the king wants to integrate all the Qiang people, can Han then agree? Even if it''s Zhang Xiu, can he promise? "


    Pang Tong''s face changed slightly.


    He did not expect that it would be so difficult to be the king of Qiang.


    Midang''s eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Pang, your words are sharp and witty, but you are only a envoy of Zhang Xiu, not a representative of Zhang Xiu. You are not worthy in front of the king. Wang won''t be able to convince you. Go back and tell Zhang Xiu to negotiate. Let him come to shaodang Qiang in person, and I will negotiate with him in person. "


    Pang Tong brushed his sleeve and said, "King Qiang, I am the Lord''s envoy."


    "You can''t represent Zhang Xiu."


    Midang''s eyes were extremely sharp. At this moment, he was in a high position for a long time. He said forcefully: "if you want to talk, let Zhang Xiu talk. Otherwise, no talk! "


    Pang Tong puffed his cheek.


    Unexpectedly, he failed to persuade Shao to become king of Qiang.


    "I''ll leave you."


    Pang Tong didn''t make a fuss any more. He bowed to midang, turned around and left with Chen Dao.


    Jiang Ye looked at Pang Tong''s back and said, "king, you asked Zhang Xiu to burn dangqiang in person. I don''t know. How did the king think about it? "


    Mi Dang''s eyes narrowed into a line and said: "Zhang Xiu''s deeds are numerous. I want to see what kind of person Zhang Xiu is. Moreover, a few days later, it was time to choose a husband for dor. At that time, countless warriors will be able to show the strength of our Qiang people in front of Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu can see the strength of our Qiang warriors and frighten Zhang Xiu. "


    Jiang ye said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Midang waved his hand and said, "go ahead, sir. Things are increasing these days. It''s hard for you. Well, in order to wait for Zhang Xiu to come, I will postpone the time of choosing my son-in-law. I hope Zhang Xiu will fight again when she comes. "


    "I understand


    Jiang Ye arched his hand to salute, then turned back.


    After Pang Tong and Chen Zhi came out of shaodang Qiang tribe, Chen Zhi saw Pang Tong''s dignified look and advised: "Pang Shangshu, although he said that he failed, he didn''t get nothing. In this case, we learned about shaodang''s character. Moreover, it is not a bad thing for the king of shaodang Qiang to invite his Lord to shaodang Qiang. "


    Pang Tong sighed: "after all, I failed. I came here with great ambition, but this time, I failed so much that I failed to live up to my Lord''s high expectations. "


    Chen Dao still wanted to persuade him, but Pang Tong waved his hand to stop him. Pang Tong said with a smile, "you don''t have to persuade me any more. I''ll be fine. What''s more, winning or losing is a matter of military affairs. I can afford to lose. "


    Chen Dao nodded and said nothing more.


    The two men galloped their horses to the direction of Longxian county.

 Chapter 568

    In June, Zhang Xiu took Huang Zhong and Zhang Ya as his generals and divided his troops into two groups, sweeping Hanyang county. In Hanyang County, where Han Sui was lost, the forces of each county could not stop the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army. Where the army passed, it fell.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu conquered all parts of the country, gathered up the fields, and then distributed them to the people.


    This move has received numerous supports.


    Zhang Xiu treats both Qiang and Han people equally. With the solid benefits of Zhang Xiu, the impression of countless Qiang people on Zhang Xiu has been reversed. At the beginning, Han Sui wantonly discredited Zhang Xiu''s image and made Qiang people hate Zhang Xiu. Although the royal guards spoke out and defended Zhang Xiu, there were many people who were unwilling to believe it.


    But now, with the implementation of Zhang Xiu''s policies, countless Qiang and Han people have benefited, so more and more people believe in Zhang Xiu and are willing to accept her.


    Many Qiang people don''t know how to cultivate, so Zhang Xiu specially mobilized experienced farmers to teach them farming experience.


    In this way, the Qiang people can understand farming.


    Zhang Xiu''s base camp moved from Longxian to Jixian.


    Jixian county is the seat of Hanyang county.


    This is the center of Hanyang county.


    After Zhang Xiu was in Hanyang County, he arranged for Yang Xiu to sort out the government affairs of Hanyang County, coordinate the relationship between Han and Qiang, and straighten out the official administration. In a short time, hundreds of officials were killed.


    The people clapped their hands to celebrate this.


    Countless people applauded Zhang Xiu''s practice. Although some people rebelled under the strong suppression, the rebellion between officials was only a small-scale rebellion and could not have a great impact.


    What Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had done was eliminated. On the contrary, the people after the turmoil supported Zhang Xiu more.


    What the people hate most is the corrupt officials of the government.


    Zhang Xiu killed corrupt officials, which was praised by the people.


    Although there was a short period of pain, Zhang Xiu asked Yang Xiu to do it boldly, re select officials and straighten the place. In a short time, the situation of Hanyang county was stabilized, Hanyang county was firmly controlled, and Han Sui''s influence in Hanyang county was eliminated.


    Inside the city, in the barracks.


    Zhang Xiu is dealing with military affairs.


    At this time, Yang Xiu strode in. He carries a pile of documents into, are let Zhang Xiu approval.


    Zhang Xiu roughly looked through it.


    In general, it is related to people''s livelihood. After reading it, Zhang Xiu did not delay and issued it directly. When Yang Xiu is ready to leave with this pile of documents, Zhang Xiu shouts Yang Xiu to sit down.


    For a moment, Yang Xiu was a little surprised.


    What''s going on here?


    Yang Xiu sat down with his eyes, nose and heart. He was calm on his face and just sat down.


    Zhang Xiu said, "dezu, let you govern Liangzhou. What are you going to do?"


    Yang Xiumei heads up.


    In his heart, he was very surprised.


    Zhang Xiu''s inquiry is tantamount to saying that she intends to appoint him as the governor of Liangzhou and let him govern Liangzhou. You know, today''s Yang Xiu is just a long history of Zhang Xiu. Of course, the official rank of Taiwei mansion is not low.


    But if he wants to run a state, Yang Xiu asks himself that he is not qualified enough. After all, the governor of Liangzhou is a real powerful person, not Zhang Xiu''s direct family. For a moment, Yang Xiu''s heart was also agitated.


    Zhang Xiu smiles. He knows that with Yang Xiu''s intelligence, he can definitely guess his intention.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu does plan to let Yang Xiu take charge of Liangzhou.


    The six officials under Zhang Xiu''s command are the core structure and cannot be easily transferred. In particular, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Tian Feng and others are responsible for the maintenance of the whole core framework, and cannot be moved.


    Among the others, Yang Xiu is the oldest and has made great achievements.


    Yang Xiu has enough ability to hold the post.


    Although Yang Xiu is still young, most of the talents under Zhang Xiu are not old. As long as Yang Xiu is competent, even if she is young, Zhang Xiu also dares to entrust heavy responsibilities.


    Seeing that Yang Xiu was a little excited, Zhang Xiu said faintly, "I''ll give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. After a quarter of an hour, you''ll elaborate it carefully."


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu arched his hand to answer.


    Yang Xiu quickly calmed down and thought about the countermeasures.


    After careful thinking, he quickly formed a general plan in his heart. Although Yang Xiu is young, he has a good mind and enough strategy. He has the ability to govern one side.


    As time goes by, a quarter of an hour goes by, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Yang Xiu.


    Yang Xiuchang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Lord, there are five ways to govern Liangzhou in your humble position."


    He only mentioned the train of thought, because there is no detailed policy, and he does not understand many situations, so he is unable to formulate a detailed policy. After all, the situation in Liangzhou is not very clear, so we can only give a general idea.


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Yang Xiu said: "first, educate all sides."


    "Throughout Liangzhou, whether Han or Qiang people. Because they are far away from the Central Plains, most of them are illiterate. The poorer they are, the more aggressive they are. ""They recruited many scholars from the Central Plains and sent them to all counties and counties to teach the Han, Qiang and other Hu people how to read together."


    "This is for the purpose of enlightenment, but also to win over all the Hu people, so that the Qiang Hu will be obedient."


    Yang Xiu looked at it and said, "of course, it''s very likely that Qiang people, even many Han people, would not like to read books simply because reading is a waste of time. It''s better to farm at home and see the harvest."


    "So the second way of thinking in humble position is to start a career and win a scholar."


    "The pilot project has been carried out in Hanoi county. According to the feedback from governor Hu of Hanoi County, the results have been very good, and many talented people have been found out. "


    "It''s a great way."


    "It can win over all parties and get more extensive support."


    "In Liangzhou, although there are some famous families, the power of the famous families is very weak. The biggest ones are some Qiang tribes or Hu tribes. These are the main ones. "


    "On the basis of establishing academies to teach, you Shizi will surely win over countless Qiang and Hu people, and even let people of insight stand out."


    "Hu people seldom become officials. If they can be given a chance to become officials, they can get the support of countless Hu people."


    "In this way, the qianghu will not make trouble."


    Although Yang Xiu was a little nervous, in fact, his thinking was quite clear. By establishing academies and learning from scholars, although he was governing the local areas, in fact, he was also uniting the four sides for his own use.


    Win over all parties and stabilize the situation.


    This is the basis of governing Liangzhou.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded her approval. Because Liangzhou is not like the Central Plains, many families. In such a place, there are many brave and ruthless people, but actually they respect scholars.


    Yang Xiu continued: "third, set up markets."


    "Although there are many fairs in Liangzhou today, most of the merchants from Central Plains come to Liangzhou directly to Qiang tribes or to other tribes to do business."


    "All along, there was no fixed place."


    "If I were in charge of Liangzhou, I would build shops and markets in the prefectures, give the qianghu a place to sell cattle and sheep fur, and give the merchants in the Central Plains a place to buy."


    "At the same time, they also recruited merchants to sell a lot of food, salt, tea, etc. in order to facilitate the purchase of qianghu and promote the trade between the two sides."


    "Through the purchase of markets, we can develop Liangzhou," Yang said


    Zhang Xiu said, "what about the fourth point?"


    When he heard Yang Xiu''s third point, he was completely relieved. Many scholars, or many scholars, after they became officials, did not look up to businessmen, and even suppressed them everywhere. But in fact, the development of local economy depends on businessmen.


    Without businessmen, everything would be difficult.


    Only with businessmen can business be prosperous and prosperous, and all walks of life have vitality.

 Chapter 569

    Yang Xiu continued: "the fourth point of humble duty is to encourage farming. In the northwest, there are many deserts, but there are places suitable for cultivation. The government must encourage farming, because with farming, people can settle down and will not wander around. "


    "Encouraging farming is not an order."


    "Many Qiang people don''t know farming tools or irrigation tools. They don''t even know solar terms and seasons."


    "Even many Han people in Liangzhou are like this."


    "The government has transferred experienced farmers, and even appointed officials from Guanzhong to teach them how to cultivate, so that the people can really understand how to cultivate."


    Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in the final analysis, the Han people, the Qiang people and the rest of the Hu people are all for survival. If you have enough to eat and drink, it''s not easy to make trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Yang Xiu''s idea is very good. He doesn''t despise businessmen, but he doesn''t forget farming.


    Farming is fundamental.


    Because the vast majority of people are farming people.


    Yang Xiu continued: "if you want to govern Liangzhou, there is a fifth point, that is, you need an army stationed in Liangzhou. Although we need education and governance, in fact, in the northwest, there are many brave people, and many brave people. "


    "In addition to preaching, we need the army to suppress unreasonable people."


    "Otherwise, we can''t do a good job with simple education."


    Yang Xiu said: "especially when you are in a humble position, you may encounter Qiang people''s rebellion and so on. When there are disturbances, it is even more necessary to mobilize the army to suppress them. With compassion, we can''t do without thunderbolt. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of praise.


    After Zhang Xiu finished laughing, she straightened out and said, "if you have dezu governing Liangzhou, I''m not worried!"


    Yang xiudao: "the Lord is wrong."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "when Liangzhou is pacified, you will take charge of Liangzhou and serve as the governor of Liangzhou."


    "Thank you


    Yang Xiu''s heart was also excited.


    At a young age, he took charge of Liangzhou. Even his father Yang Biao, when he was young, was not as good as he was. That is why the times made heroes. Only when he followed Zhang Xiu did he have such an opportunity.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, Wang Yue strides in.


    After Wang Yue settled down, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, we have found the whereabouts of Ma Chao and Han Sui."


    Zhang Xiu said, "where did they go?"


    Wang Yue replied: "after Ma Chao and Han Sui left Hanyang County, they went straight to Wudu County. Wudu County borders on Yizhou, and there are many mountains in Wudu County, which is also the gathering place of Baima Qiang. According to Yan Xing, Han Sui has a close relationship with the king of Baima Qiang. They have gone to Baima Qiang. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it seems that the next step is to attack Wudu County."


    In fact, Wudu County is just to the south of Hanyang County, where both sides are bordered. For Han Sui and Ma Chao, Zhang Xiushi must be exterminated, it is impossible to leave future trouble.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not know the location of Ma Chao before, so it was not easy to contact Ma Chao. Now that Zhang Xiu knows that Ma Chao has gone to baimaqiang, she is ready to contact Ma Chao.


    Anyway, Ma Chao''s wife and children are still in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, you should mobilize the royal guards to contact Ma Chao and tell him. His wife Han Xuan is in my hands. Besides, tell him about Han Xuan''s pregnancy. "


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, just tell him about it?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "just tell him about it, and don''t say anything superfluous. When we come to Wudu County and attack Han Sui, we will be ready to threaten Ma Chao. What''s more, the baimaqiang people are located in the mountains and may not be able to contact Ma Chao. "


    Wang Yue said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and reported: "Lord, Pang Shangshu asked to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    He was surprised. He didn''t expect Pang Tong to come back so soon. For a moment, Zhang Xiu was also looking forward to it.


    Soon, Pang Tong and Chen Dao entered.


    After they saluted Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong looked ashamed and decadent and said, "my Lord, I arrived at shaodang Qiang, but I can''t persuade shaodang Qiang, please punish me."


    Zhang Xiu felt sorry when she heard that.


    What a pity!


    If shaodang king of Qiang is convinced, then there will be another sharp weapon against Baima Qiang.


    Zhang Xiu said: "no harm, if you can''t persuade, you can''t persuade. Now, Han Sui has retreated to Wudu County. Our next focus is to destroy Han Sui. "


    Pang Tong continued: "when he saw Shao Dang king of Qiang, he said that if he wanted to negotiate, he needed the Lord to go in person. He said, "I''m in a humble position. I can''t make decisions on behalf of my Lord."


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked, "did he let me go in person?""Yes


    Pang Tong replied, "the shaodang Qiang people in my humble position have a huge tribe and a large number of people, at least tens of thousands of people. In particular, there are many Han people in shaodangqiang. Shaodang Lao Wang is not much hostile to the Han people. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was also thinking.


    Wang Yue interjected: "Lord, according to the news from the royal guards, shaodang Qiang is different from Baima Qiang. The king of Baima Qiang was very hostile to Han people and often plundered Han villages. On the contrary, Shao became the king of Qiang and allowed Qiang and Han people to intermarry. This shaodang king of Qiang is a man of great ability. It is not as aggressive as the Baima Qiang. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in this way, you can be a Qiang when you are burned."


    Pang Tong said: "if you can make shaodang Qiang surrender, shaodang Qiang will send troops in Jincheng County, and the Lord''s army will send troops in Hanyang County, it will be much easier to besiege Wudu County. Wudu County is located in the south of Hanyang and Jincheng county. "


    "If so, let''s go."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a fine light.


    He was interested in shaodang king of Qiang. Shaodangqiang, which is close to Han people, is still rare. If we can accept shaodang Qiang, it means that we have solved a big threat among Qiang people.


    This is an opportunity!


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "come, call Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan to see you."


    The soldiers on guard at the gate were ordered to go to inform immediately. After a short time, Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan entered the camp, bowed to Zhang Xiu, and then stood in the hall.


    Zhang xiudao said: "this time, the scholar Yuan Shao was the king of Qiang, but he failed to persuade Shao to be the king of Qiang. Not only that, shaodang king of Qiang asked me to go in person. I''m going to have a trip. While I''m away, Huang Zhong is in charge of military affairs and government affairs. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong agreed.


    After a pause, Huang Zhong said in a deep voice: "my Lord, it''s quite a risk to burn dangqiang. Under this premise, whether to dispatch General Chen''s Langya camp to go together, in order to coordinate the Lord''s safety. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I''m not going to demonstrate, I''m going to negotiate. What''s more, the royal guards know the situation of burning dangqiang, so I went there. Burning dangqiang is not a tiger''s den, but persuading it will be very convenient for us to wipe out Han Sui, which is quite cost-effective. "


    When Huang Zhong heard the words, he would not say more.


    Pang Tong once again said, "my Lord, I beg you to go with me again."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu responded directly.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu arranged all the affairs in the army. After arranging them properly, she left the camp with Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Shi a, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Yang Xiu and headed for Jincheng county.


    The reason why Yang Xiu went with him was that Yang Xiu was going to take over the post of Liangzhou governor. He had to understand the situation of shaodang Qiang in order to manage Liangzhou in the future.


    After all, most of the people in Liangzhou are Qiang people.


    Although there are not many soldiers around Zhang Xiu, in fact, there are hidden royal guards along the way to ensure her safety and protect her from attack.


    Zhang Xiu left Jixian and went west all the way.


    All the way, there was almost no delay.


    When Zhang Xiu took all the people into Jincheng County, she soon came to shaodangqiang tribe. As soon as they rode up, Deng Zhan came forward and said, "go and report immediately. Zhang Xiu, the Great Han''s great captain, has come to visit shaodang king of Qiang."

 Chapter 570

    Burn when the tribe, in the king''s tent.


    Mindang, the king of Qiang, is looking through the information presented. It''s all about the warriors of the Qiang tribes in shaodang. In fact, a few days ago, all the warriors of shaodang Qiang tribes arrived.


    People from different tribes hope to prepare for a contest.


    Jiang ye can''t hold down the matter, and reports it to midang. Midang orders in person, and forcefully presses down the time for the tribal warriors to fight, but it doesn''t go on immediately.


    At this time, the tent curtain was lifted.


    In her 28th year, a woman wearing a wreath and her thick black hair spread over her shoulders and braided her hair in small braids broke into the camp with a smile.


    This woman is tall and slender.


    She has long legs and a slender waist. Although she is only 16 years old, her chest has begun to take shape. She has a white neck, a melon shaped face and a natural innocence.


    The big black eyes are watery and charming.


    She is dor.


    It''s Midan''s little daughter.


    Duo''er has been learning from Jiang Ye since she was a child. Her mouth is sweet and greasy. She is deeply loved by midang. When he was a child, midang doted on dor. He held it in the palm of his hand for fear of falling, and held it in his mouth for fear of melting. In shaodangqiang, it is common for most women to marry at the age of twelve or thirteen.


    Dor''s age, when it comes to shaodangqiang, is an old girl.


    This is mindang''s intention.


    Midang wants to choose a satisfactory husband for duo''er. Midang sees duo''er enter, and his serious cheek is full of smiles. A rough old face, as if laughing into a chrysanthemum.


    Midang waved and said, "my dear daughter, come, come to my father."


    Dor came to the back of midang, reached for midang, kneaded his back, and said in a soft voice, "father, it''s very hard for you to deal with government affairs all day. You can''t be so busy all the time. You should pay attention to your health."


    "Oh, it''s still duo''er. I know I love my father."


    When the deep eyes, full of doting and happiness. He said with emotion: "it''s a pity that there are countless burning warriors in the tribe, and some of them like it. At that time, after duo''er gets married, the father will have less time to see you. "


    "I''m not afraid. I don''t want to get married."


    Duo''er said with a smile: "duo''er has been staying by his father''s side and taking care of him."


    "That''s not good, silly girl."


    Midang said with a smile: "when a girl is big, it''s necessary to get married."


    After a pause, midang said, "speaking of it, many tribal warriors have gathered around the king''s tent these days. You have seen some people quietly on weekdays. Do you like the people of these tribes


    "No!"


    Dor shook his head and said, "they are all vulgar people."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Mi Dang heard the speech, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Dor said, "what does Father laugh at?"


    Midang said: "I didn''t expect that my duo''er knew that they were all vulgar people. What kind of person do you want, your husband? "


    While beating on his back, DOR said, "father, I always follow Mr. Jiang. I hear Mr. Jiang tell many stories about heroes. The person my daughter is going to marry must be a great hero. I don''t want to marry if I''m not a hero. "


    "What kind of person is the greatest hero?" he said


    Dor said: "like my father, he is a great hero."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Mi Dang stroked his beard under his jaw, and his face was full of smiles.


    He really opened his arms with a smile, listening to his daughter''s words, it was really warm and intimate. I''m tired of dealing with government affairs all day. But after a talk with his little daughter, he was in a good mood.


    It''s really his delight.


    Mi Dang said with a smile: "silly girl, my father is old, which is a great hero."


    "Father is a great hero!"


    Dor said firmly, "Mr. Jiang said that when my father took over shaodang Qiang, Ding Shao, a member of shaodang Qiang tribe, was always bullied. It was his father who worked hard to make shaodangqiang a big tribe, respected and not bullied. "


    After a pause, duo''er said: "if we burn dangqiang, without our father, there will be no burning dangqiang today. Mr. Jiang also said that his father not only made great efforts to govern the country, but also promoted the Han people to live in peace with us Qiang people, which is also a great achievement in the Han Dynasty. So, my father is a great hero. "


    "Well, well, well, my father is a great hero."


    Midang''s rough face is full of bright smile, and he is respected by his daughter. As a father, midang is very happy.


    Midang changed the subject and continued: "if you want to find a great hero, it''s no problem. We burn when Qiang countless tribes, countless warriors gathered, naturally there are great heroes


    "Let''s see!"


    Dor turned her lips and didn''t care much.When Mi Dang hears her daughter''s words, she shakes her head in her heart. This girl is very wild.


    Playful, eccentric, elf.


    But Mi Dang didn''t have any way to take duo''er. He didn''t have any resistance in front of duo''er. As soon as duo''er opens his mouth, he will be careful and soft. He will answer duo''er''s request.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a Qiang soldier entered.


    The Qiang soldiers knelt down on one knee and reported: "king, Great Han Taiwei Zhang Xiu, arrived outside the camp and came to see the king."


    Duo''er''s brow rose when she heard it.


    She knows about Zhang Xiu, but her knowledge of Zhang Xiu is only limited to Jiang Ye''s description of Zhang Xiu. It''s Jiang ye who tells her about Zhang Xiu that she learns some news, but she knows that Zhang Xiu is very powerful.


    Midang said, "please!"


    "Yes


    The Qiang soldiers were ordered to turn around and retreat.


    Mi Dang looked at duo''er beside him and said, "duo''er, father Wang wants to meet Zhang Xiu. Go back to your residence."


    "No!"


    Duo''er shook his head and said: "father, listen to Mr. Jiang, Zhang Xiu is very powerful. Even Da Danyu Fuluo of the southern Xiongnu died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. There is a screen behind your throne. How about dor hiding behind it and peeping at it secretly? My father is the best, and I love you the most. Father, please agree


    "Good, good, good!"


    When listening to duo''er''s whine, mi''dang''s heart suddenly melts, which has the mind to refuse, and agrees directly.


    "Father is the best."


    On dor''s pretty face, a bright smile appeared. She quickly went to the back of the screen and waited quietly.


    Mi Dang looked at duo''er hiding behind the screen and said, "girl, no matter what happens later, you can''t make a sound or come out. Do you understand? "


    "Don''t worry, father," said dor. "Dor understands."


    Midang no longer talks with duo''er, so he immediately orders someone to send someone to invite Jiang Ye. Jiang Ye is his counselor. Most of the time, Jiang Ye has to analyze things for him. When Zhang Xiu comes, Jiang Ye is indispensable.


    After Jiang ye entered, he inquired: "king, I heard that duo''er has come to the king''s tent. Now many people are trying to meet duo''er, but they can''t find anyone. Where has this man gone? "


    When Mi Dang points to the back of the screen, Jiang Ye immediately understands. He shakes his head and smiles.


    Jiang Ye has only one son.


    He has no daughter.


    Duo''er was taught by him since he was a child. For Jiang ye, duo''er is just like his daughter.


    Jiang Ye is very spoiled.


    Midang and Jiang ye are chatting and waiting quietly.


    As time goes by, outside the tent, a soldier shouts, and Zhang Xiu arrives. Both midang and Jiang Ye cheer up and stare at the gate of the tent.

 Chapter 571

    Wang Zhang''s curtain is lifted, and Zhang Xiu takes Wang Yue to enter. On the contrary, Pang Tong, Sima Yi, Yang Xiu, Deng Zhan and Shi a were all blocked out of Wang''s tent.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu wears a long crown, a white robe, a jade belt around her waist and long boots. His manner is elegant and full of momentum. His angular face was like a knife, especially his eyes, which seemed to be able to see people''s heart.


    As soon as he appeared, it was as if all the light were converging on him.


    It''s like having your own aura.


    Wang Yue, who follows Zhang Xiu, has a slightly bent back and no sense of existence.


    Hiding behind the screen, duo''er sees Zhang Xiu''s big dark eyes. Her hands were twisted in front of her body, and her heart was beating all the time. Her pretty face was immediately covered with rosy clouds.


    How handsome!


    Duo''er often heard Jiang ye mention Zhang Xiu.


    In Jiang Ye''s words, he highly praised Zhang Xiu. However, in duo''er''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is so powerful that she must be five big and three thick, and she must be a man of great stature. But duo''er never thought that Zhang Xiu was so handsome, with a light smile on her lips, her upright posture was so charming.


    In dor''s mind, he suddenly made up for the appearance of a great hero.


    It should be Zhang Xiu.


    Duo''er''s heart is full of joy, immersed in his own brain.


    "I''ve met the king of Qiang in Zhang Xiu."


    After Zhang Xiu stood still, she saluted with dignity. He didn''t bend down, because as a great Han Taiwei of Zhang Xiu, even if the other party is the king of Qiang, Zhang Xiu''s identity is higher.


    "Listen to your voice!"


    Duo''er hides behind the screen and hears Zhang Xiu''s rich and resonant voice. She feels her heart is crisp.


    At this moment, DOR suddenly has a feeling of concern. Since she was a little eccentric, she has heard Jiang Ye talk about many touching love stories among Han people, and even heard all kinds of love stories at first sight.


    She also heard her sister talk about the feeling of falling in love.


    Now, she has this feeling.


    Duo''er felt happy in her heart. She felt right behind the screen.


    Midang didn''t know what dor thought. If he knew, he would not leave dor. Midang is shocked when he looks at the handsome Zhang Xiu. He can''t connect Zhang Xiu, who is good at fighting, with the handsome people in front of him.


    Zhang Xiu was born in martial arts.


    It should be big and strong. It should be strong and strong. How can it be like this?


    It was beyond his expectation.


    Jiang Ye''s brow slightly frowned. He was surprised at Zhang Xiu''s age. In the past, when he heard about Zhang Xiu''s achievements, he ignored her age. But now when he saw her with his own eyes, he found that she was so young.


    Young and promising!


    Jiang Ye was filled with emotion.


    Midang waved his hand and said, "Taiwei Zhang, please sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu sits down humbly, while Wang Yue kneels down behind her and is responsible for protecting her safety.


    Mi Dang said coldly: "Zhang Taiwei went to shaodang Qiang alone. Aren''t you afraid that our king will kill you? You know, there is no army of you here. Once you die, the foundation you set up in Guanzhong will be destroyed. "


    Dor was behind the screen. When she heard this, she became nervous and said in her heart, "father is really bad.".


    It''s hard to talk.


    But dor didn''t come out.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "speaking of going to the meeting alone, it''s not once or twice. In the old days, I went to Xudu alone and saw Sikong and Cao Cao without fear. In the old days, Yuan Shao and I went to Heishan alone to recruit Zhang Yan in Heishan during the first World War. "


    "I''m not afraid of Cao Cao and Zhang Yan. Why do I fear the king of Qiang?"


    "What''s more, when a man is angry, his blood splashes five steps. In such a small camp, if the king of Qiang wants to attack me, I have this confidence. It must be the king of Qiang who died first, not Zhang Xiu. "


    In the words, Zhang Xiu''s domineering spirit is revealed.


    Qiang people advocate the strong.


    In front of the Qiang people, it is not easy to get respect if they speak with a soft attitude.


    When Zhang Xiu talks, her edge will show.


    After hearing this, duo''er shakes her head and is very happy in her heart.


    Midang didn''t like it, and said with a smile, "Tai Wei Zhang is so confident. No one in the king''s tent can get close to the king. You should know that there are warriors in the king''s tent. "


    Zhang Xiu held her head high and threw her voice on the ground: "if you don''t climb mountains, you don''t know the height of the sky; if you don''t face deep streams, you don''t know the thickness of the earth. The king of Qiang had never been out of Liangzhou, had never seen the outside world, and did not know the heroes in the world, so it was normal for him to be blind and confident. After all, the Qiang king is only confined to Liangzhou, which is excusable. "


    Midang''s cheek puffed.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth is really powerful. When facing Zhang Xiu and Pang Tong in the past, MI has two different feelings.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu is full of air.Midang also found out that even if he was the king of Qiang, even if it was his account, Zhang Xiu was calm and casual, without fear or fear, as if it was a back garden.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    Art experts are bold, confident and have enough strength.


    Midang said with a smile, "everyone can boast. Tomorrow, it''s time for me to burn. When countless warriors of Qiang tribes gather to fight, will Zhang Taiwei have the courage to follow the king? "


    Zhang xiudao said, "you can''t do anything without it!"


    For the so-called Qiang warrior, Zhang Xiu did not pay attention at all.


    Although the individual Qiang people are really brave and fierce, they are really very brave. But the Qiang people are not enough to see Zhang Xiu. Even Dian Wei and Ma Chao are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals, let alone these Qiang people.


    Midang said, "that''s a deal."


    After that, Jiang Ye nodded.


    Jiang ye took the initiative and said: "Zhang Taiwei had sent Pang Tong to Wangzhang, intending to unite with us. I just don''t know how Zhang Taiwei is going to unite? "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "Pang Tong''s words are wrong. It''s not union, it''s obedience. My official hopes that the burning of the king of Qiang will become Qiang, and he will submit to the imperial court, Zhang Xiu and serve for me, and kill Han Sui with me. "


    Midang''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu has such a big appetite that she wants him to be a Qiang.


    Jiang ye said coldly: "Zhang Taiwei''s appetite is too big. You know, even Han Sui and Ma Chao, you haven''t conquered yet. How can you recruit me to burn dangqiang? "


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "who said that did not break Han Sui and Ma Chao, that is a long time ago. After breaking through the Longguan pass, I drove straight in and directly attacked Longxian county. "


    "In the first battle of Longxian County, Han Sui was defeated and Ma Chao retreated, and the troops of Han Sui and Ma Chao were killed by 40000 or 50000 people. Han Sui and Ma Chao had a total of more than 70000 people, including more than 20000 Qiang soldiers, totaling more than 90000 soldiers, who were defeated by me. "


    "Now Han Sui and Ma Chao have escaped from Hanyang county and gone to Wudu County to join baimaqiang. In the past, Han Sui and Ma Chao, who had been in power for a while, were already defeated by their subordinates. "


    "It''s just hansui. It''s not worth mentioning."


    In the past, Japanese officials defeated Han Sui and Ma Chao in Chencang. At that time, they were unwilling to cover up and kill them, so they were allowed to withdraw to Liangzhou. Now I''m determined to kill them. It''s as easy as crushing ants to defeat them. "


    "Hiss!"


    When hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, MI Dang couldn''t help taking a cold breath.


    Jiang Ye was also shocked.


    They haven''t got the news yet.


    After all, it''s a long way from Longxian to shaodangqiang, and the information about shaodangqiang is lagging behind, so there is no news coming back.


    Midang took a deep breath, calmed himself down and said, "Zhang Taiwei defeated Han Sui and Ma Chao, but they also fled to Wudu County? In a short time, I''m afraid we can''t wipe out Han Sui and Ma Chao. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s a matter of time."


    At this time, facing Zhang Xiu, MI suddenly finds that he has no confidence.


    As if, this is the home of Zhang Xiu.


    Not his home court.

 Chapter 572

    Midang is a man who has gone through countless waves. He is used to seeing the treacherous clouds and the ups and downs of Liangzhou, but he has never seen such a talented young man as Zhang Xiu.


    Such a person is far ahead of him.


    Better than him.


    Of course, Zhang Xiu''s strength is stronger than him.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops are no less than tens of thousands now, but it is impossible for all the ethnic groups of shaodang Qiang to gather so many people. It is his limit that midang can develop shaodangqiang to the present situation.


    This is the limit of ability.


    Midang took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and said slowly: "although it''s a matter of time to destroy hansui and machao, the gathering place of baimaqiang is not like the place where I burn dangqiang, live with Han people on a large scale, and the gathering place of shaodangqiang is on such an endless plain."


    After a pause, he said: "the location of baimaqiang is high and steep. It''s very difficult to wipe out baimaqiang, even Han Sui and Ma Chao who are lurking in baimaqiang."


    Zhang Xiu said: "dare to ask the king of Qiang, is it difficult to defeat Cao Cao?"


    "Hard!"


    Midang answered directly.


    Cao Cao''s powerful power is not easy to be compared with. There are no such people.


    In midang''s opinion, it is very difficult to defeat Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said again, "I''ll ask the king of Qiang again. Is it difficult to defeat Yuan Shao?"


    "Hard!"


    Midang still answered.


    Yuan Shao was the third Duke of the fourth generation, and his family members were all over the world. Yuan Shao occupied the land of Jizhou, with the greatest strength in the north and strong troops. It was very difficult for midang to defeat Yuan Shao.


    In other words, midang did not dare to fight with these people.


    Jiang Ye sits at the bottom, listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, eyes narrowed. He was born in the Han Dynasty, had read books and knew how to speak. Hear Zhang Xiu''s question, and then associate with Zhang Xiu''s own achievements, have understood Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s eloquent way.


    However, Jiang ye did not interrupt, which is the best way to understand Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "then I asked the king of Qiang, Han Sui and Ma Chao three times. Compared with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, which of the three is easier to defeat?"


    He stroked his beard.


    He came back.


    Understand the intention of Zhang Xiu.


    Such a simple inquiry, midang can not deny, only to say: "of course, Han Sui and Ma Chao are easier to defeat."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s easy for me to defeat Cao Cao; it''s easy for me to defeat Yuan Shao. The king of Qiang said just now that it would be easier to defeat Han Sui and Ma Chao. Even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are easily defeated by me, not to mention Han Sui and Ma Chao? King Qiang, what do you think? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Mi Dang heard the speech, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter overshadowed his embarrassment.


    Hiding behind the screen, duo''er clenched her fist and waved it in the air, with a look of winning.


    She is cheering for Zhang Xiu.


    What Zhang Xiu said is really wonderful.


    After laughing, midang exclaimed: "it''s worthy of being Zhang Taiwei of a great Han. His sharp words and clear logic are admirable. It''s just the skill of your mouth. It''s so powerful. I just don''t know. What''s wrong with your Kung Fu? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I, Zhang Xiu, am not afraid of anyone''s challenge."


    Mi Dang said: "in that case, in tomorrow''s countless shaodang Qiang tribe warriors competition, Zhang Taiwei must participate. I''d like to see if Zhang Taiwei''s mouth is more powerful, or Zhang Taiwei''s hand is more powerful. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t mention the alliance. She said: "if I lose all and become a warrior of Qiang, what should I do?"


    Midang said directly: "if Zhang Taiwei can defeat all the warriors who burn me as Qiang, then I''ll go back to Han and Zhang Taiwei to drive him."


    Zhang xiudao: "a gentleman''s word!"


    "Sima is hard to chase," he said


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu and midang answered at the same time. Both Jiang ye and midang had a bright smile on their faces.


    After the conversation, midang no longer talks with Zhang Xiu, and orders people to take Zhang Xiu and others to have a rest, waiting for the arrival of tomorrow. After Zhang Xiu and his party left, midang called out duo''er and said, "duo''er, have you seen Zhang Xiu?"


    "I see it!"


    Duo''er nodded busily. In the dark and shining eyes, there was a brilliant light.


    Midang asked, "how''s it going?"


    Duo''er''s eyes flashed a touch of cunning and said with a smile: "very powerful Han people."


    "Go down!"


    Midang waved his hand.


    Duo''er left the king''s tent quickly with her train.


    Jiang Ye looks at the back of duo''er''s leaving, opens his mouth, but when the words reach his mouth, he swallows them back.


    Seeing Jiang Ye''s look, midang said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, you don''t speak. I know what you want to say. Dor is a strange little girl. She didn''t tell the truth just now. ""In fact, she grew up with you when she was a child. She was deeply influenced by you. She yearned for the life of Han people and admired the culture of Han people."


    "Zhang Xiu is really handsome."


    Midang said: "not only that, he was already a captain when he was young, and his mouth was quite powerful. At least I have never seen such a powerful young man for so many years. "


    "Zhang Xiu is shining in front of the little girl duo''er. This is normal. After all, Zhang Xiu is very good. If I am a woman, I''m afraid I can''t stop the charm of Zhang Xiu. "


    "It''s so much more than people. It''s so irritating."


    Midang sighed: "when I was young, although I was in charge of shaodang Qiang in the tribe, I was much weaker than Zhang Xiu''s achievements."


    Jiang ye said: "the king is modest."


    After a pause, Jiang ye said: "the king and Zhang Xiu bet, some impulse. Zhang Xiu was obviously agitated. From the beginning to the end, he didn''t talk about obedience. On the contrary, what about defeating the warriors of shaodang Qiang? It''s for you to take the initiative and make things clear. "


    Midang laughed and explained: "how can I not know Zhang Xiu''s plan. But in fact, I have carefully considered the matter of obedience to Zhang Xiu, so I did it. "


    "First of all, Zhang Xiu is a great Han''s Taiwei, and his literary and martial arts skills are so powerful, it''s not simple. In particular, the momentum of Zhang Xiu''s capture of Liangzhou is irresistible. Obedience to Zhang Xiu is not a bad thing. It''s a matter of following the trend. "


    "Second, DOR seems to like Zhang Xiu. Since the little girl likes it, let the contest of the warriors of the tribes tomorrow decide all this. "


    "If we can get close to Zhang Xiu and become the son-in-law of Han people, why not? At that time, I will be more detached in Liangzhou. "


    Midang zhengse said: "it''s also a matter of great benefit but no harm for burning dangqiang. At the same time, it also takes into account dor''s emotion. "


    Jiang ye said with emotion: "the king is far sighted, Jiang Ye admire."


    Midang said with a smile: "thanks to Mr. Jiang''s help these years. But when it comes to obedience to Zhang Xiu, I will certainly arrange the burning of the Qiang nationality. Otherwise, I will not be obedient to Zhang Xiu. But before that, I will find a suitable official position for Mr. Jiang, and I will not treat him badly. "


    Jiang Ye was moved by this.


    He stood up, went to the tent, folded his hands, and bowed 90 degrees to Mitang. After a long time, Jiang Ye stood up and looked respectful.


    Midang smiles and waves his hand.


    Jiang ye then turned back.

 Chapter 573

    Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue, Yang Xiu, Sima Yi and Pang Tong were all present in the camp.


    All were placed in a barracks.


    This is the biggest barracks.


    Although Sima Yi and others did not go into the tent with Zhang Xiu to see the king of Qiang, they all heard what Zhang Xiu said in the tent clearly without any omission.


    Zhang Xiu''s words made the king of Qiang speechless. With Zhang Xiu''s strength, we can say for sure that the Qiang people have been solved.


    The surrender of shaodang Qiang is irresistible.


    Sima Yi looked solemn and said, "Lord, when the people of the Qiang tribes gather, something big will happen. Just don''t know, what will it be? "


    Wang Yue also nodded and said: "in this shaodang Qiang, we are not familiar with the place of life. It''s not easy to get information. The people of Jinyi Wei have no Eyeliner when they are burning Qiang.


    Zhang xiuxiao said: "it''s OK, even if there''s something, you don''t have to worry. Unlike most Qiang people, shaodang king is neither extreme nor exclusive of Han people. What''s more, Han Sui and Ma Chao were defeated. As long as they were a little more rational, they couldn''t do anything to us. This time, it''s just a visit, and peace of mind. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t worry about shaodang Qiang''s trip.


    After all, he is in Liangzhou, which can be said to be the general trend.


    "Is Zhang Taiwei there?"


    At this time, a crisp voice suddenly sounded outside the camp.


    The sound is as sweet as a oriole.


    The man who came here was a flower.


    Shi a went to the gate of the barracks and saw the pretty duo er. He said with a straight face, "what can I do for you, girl


    "It''s none of your business. I want to see Zhang Taiwei."


    Dor raised her head and answered aloud. She held up her sharp chin, a pair of big eyes blinking, is looking forward to, pretty face, more elated.


    Shia said: "after the girl said, I can report to the Lord."


    "Get out of the way!"


    Duo''er snorted, not happy.


    She came to camp not to see Shi ah, but to see Zhang Xiu.


    In the camp, Zhang Xiu heard the dialogue between Shi''a and duo''er and said, "Shi''a, please come in."


    "Yes


    Shia nodded and waved.


    Dor strides into the tent. As soon as she enters the tent, the corner of her mouth rises slightly, evoking a faint smile. The two dimples in the corner of the mouth are revealed, which makes it more beautiful and lovely.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to see duo''er. I didn''t expect that there would be such a beautiful and lovely woman in shaodang Qiang and other bitter and cold places.


    It''s rare.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind was ordinary and asked, "girl, what''s the matter?"


    Duo''er bowed to give a salute, with a soft tone, and said slowly: "the king has specially prepared a camp for Taiwei, right next to this camp. On the order of the king, I will take the Taiwei


    Her tone was soft and tender.


    This scene, let Shi a simply stare big eyes. Before, when he arrived at the gate of the camp, the pretty girl, fierce and arrogant, didn''t pay any attention to him.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, it seems to be crisp. All the burrs are converging and become gentle.


    It''s quite different.


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "the camp is so wide that we can live in it. I appreciate the kindness of King Qiang. "


    "No way!"


    Duo''er shook his head and said with a tearful look: "Zhang Taiwei, this is the order of the king of Qiang. Please agree. If I didn''t finish the task arranged by the king of Qiang, I would be punished. "


    She stares at Zhang Xiu, eyes watery, as if to leave tears immediately.


    A pathetic look, a pity.


    But Zhang Xiu''s heart is full of vitality.


    The king of Qiang had arranged his residence, rearranged it, and asked a little girl to arrange it.


    It''s weird.


    But the new camp is on the side, and it doesn''t matter.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go!"


    "Oh, great."


    Duo''er was very happy. Her pretty face was full of joy, which made people feel happy. She quickly waved her hand and walked out, saying: "Taiwei, follow me."


    Wang Yue said: "Lord..."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and strode out of the camp with duo''er. Wang Yue sees this, follows closely behind, leaves together with Zhang Xiu. Even Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others, are the same, one after another out of the camp.


    After the party walked out of the barracks, DOR pointed to a barracks only ten steps away and said with a smile, "Tai Wei, that''s your barracks. Please follow me."


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Outside the tent, DOR asked for credit. First, she lifted the curtain of the tent door and said, "Taiwei, please!"


    "Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu said thanks and stepped in.In the tent, there is heaven and earth.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the layout and furnishings in the camp, she was surprised. Because the furnishings in the camp are in the Han style. There are desk, bookshelf, pen, ink, paper and inkstone. The four treasures of the normal study are complete, spacious and transparent, and the layout is also very elegant.


    Duo''er asked for credit and said with a smile, "Taiwei, what do you think?"


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Miss, I have a heart. Thank you very much."


    Duo''er said hastily, "no, no, it''s the order of the king of Qiang. Goodbye


    Facing Zhang Xiu, duo er''s heart is pounding. She even felt that Zhang Xiu seemed to see through something, so he felt guilty and left directly.


    Pang Tong and others were also surprised to see this.


    Did not expect Zhang Xiu living camp, layout so elegant, even the four treasures of the study are ready.


    Pang Tong suddenly laughed and joked: "the Lord is the Lord. When it comes to shaodang Qiang, even the living camp is different. If you come here at a humble post, don''t mention living, you will be expelled before you finish your words. "


    Zhang Xiu also laughed lightly.


    A few people were joking, but they didn''t stay. Instead, they went out to camp and strolled in the burning Qiang tribe.


    The tribe is very broad and there are more people.


    Because shaodang Qiang people live together with Han and Qiang people, they soon met Han people. Zhang Xiu asked people about the reason why the warriors of various tribes gathered. After knowing about it, she knew about the selection of Qiang King''s son-in-law.


    Unexpectedly, such things happened.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention to such a thing. When you come, you should be calm and calm.


    In the king''s tent, migang, the king of Qiang, and Jiang Ye discussed the contest.


    At this time, a strong man in his late 30s entered.


    His name is aguli.


    He''s midang''s eldest son, and he''s big.


    After saluting, aguli said in a deep voice: "father, DOR, the little girl, is in charge without authorization. Beside the tent you arranged for Zhang Xiu, she arranged another tent and brought Zhang Xiu with her. Dor said it was arranged by her father. This little girl is really a fool. "


    Midang took a puff from the corner of his mouth.


    All of a sudden, he realized the feeling that the girl was not staying. The little girl was completely facing Zhang Xiu.


    Aguli continued: "father, in order to avoid duo''er''s trouble, do you think we should ban duo''er to avoid her running around?"


    "Can you restrain your feet?" he said


    "No!"


    Agulishan smiles and shakes his head.


    Duo''er is the apple of midang''s eye, and the eccentric spirit spoiled by the whole family. Even if arrange a person to forbid foot duo Er, twinkling of an eye, small wench can slip out, can''t control at all.


    Midang waved his hand and said, "tomorrow is the time to compete. Don''t worry about dor. In a word, do a good job in fighting tomorrow. I have hundreds of tribes gathering in shaodangqiang. This is a grand event for shaodangqiang. "


    "Son, I understand!"


    Aguli nodded solemnly.


    After a pause, aguli said: "it''s hard for my father to leave Zhang Xiu. Do you really intend to submit to the great man and work for Zhang Xiu?"


    "Why not?" Said midang.


    Aguli said: "Zhang Xiu is not a brave person. It''s not cost-effective to be loyal to such a person."


    When Mi Dang heard ah Guli''s words, he laughed angrily and said, "you are just a brain. You only advocate powerlessness. There is no wisdom in your brain. But we''ll have to wait until tomorrow. Zhang Xiu will also participate in the contest among the warriors of various tribes. "


    With a bright smile on his face, aguli said: "father Wang Yingming, is to let Zhang Xiu know that I''m a warrior of Qiang tribe, and let him know that I''m a brave man of Qiang tribe."


    Mi Dang said, "go ahead."


    "Yes


    Aguli was ordered to turn back.


    Mindang looked at the figure of aguli''s leaving. After aguli came out of the camp, he looked at Jiang ye and said, "Sir, in the words of Han people, this is a tiger father and a dog son. Ah Guli, after all, is too heavy on force and has no wisdom at all. "


    Jiang ye said with a smile: "the king is strong and powerful. He has enough time to train the big prince. Don''t worry."


    Mi Dang smiles and shakes his head, but says nothing more.

 Chapter 574

    The next day, early in the morning.


    All of a sudden, the whole shaodang Qiang tribe is boiling and noisy. In shaodang Qiang, people from different tribes gathered, making the whole tribe overcrowded.


    Shaodangqiang, where the school is located.


    There have been countless Qiang people gathered together. They are all warriors of the Qiang tribe. They are all eager to try. Everyone knows that duo''er is the Pearl of shaodang Qiang. As everyone knows, duo''er is the heart and soul of the Qiang king.


    If you can marry dor, it''s like stepping up to heaven.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early in the morning. After he came out of the camp, he did morning exercises at the gate of the camp. At the end of the morning exercise, he had breakfast and was waiting for notice in the camp.


    The waiting time is not long.


    After a while, some Qiang soldiers entered and reported: "Zhang Taiwei, your majesty has orders. Please follow me."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu got up and gave an order.


    Wang Yue, Shi a, Sima Yi, Yang Xiu and Deng Zhan followed Zhang Xiu in the direction of Wang Zhang. As soon as he arrived outside the king''s tent, mindang, king of Qiang, was dressed up and waiting for Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing midang, Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Midang said with a smile, "Zhang Taiwei, you are going to face the thousands of warriors who are burning in Qiangtang. Are you sure you will win?"


    Zhang xiudao: "a group of local chickens and wagons."


    Local chicken and dog?


    Midang''s eyes widened, and even the corners of his mouth twitched. He has Jiang Ye around him. Through Jiang Ye''s narration, he understands the culture and customs of the Han family and the meaning of tujiwagou.


    Midang was not angry, but had a banter look on his face. He said with a smile: "Zhang Taiwei is so confident. I hope he can speak so easily after a while."


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "I am a person who always has a beginning and an end. What was said at the beginning will not change in the end. Don''t worry, King Qiang. You will witness this scene. "


    "Wait and see!"


    Midang''s face is not happy.


    He found himself in front of Zhang Xiu, the other side always forced, let him not even show off the mind.


    Zhang Xiu found the change of midang''s face, but she didn''t take care of it. When he was burned, he not only wooed shaodang Qiang, but also showed his strength and suppressed the other side, so that the other side could obey his instructions.


    Therefore, there should be not only soft means, but also thunderbolt means.


    The combination of grace and power is the king''s way.


    In particular, shaodang Qiang worships the strong and is prone to be despised by shaodang Qiang.


    Midang took the crowd to the school yard that had already been arranged.


    This school field is very vast.


    In the early summer, the sun was shining, the wind was gentle, the banners were fluttering, and there was constant discussion.


    In the school yard, there was a lot of noise,


    "here comes the king of Qiang."


    In the crowd, someone suddenly stared at the entrance of the school yard and yelled. With the cry, countless people''s eyes, Qi shushushuluo at the entrance of the school yard, saw the king of Qiang striding forward.


    Inevitably, some people saw Zhang Xiu enter side by side with the king of Qiang.


    "Who is that?"


    "A Chinese, still so young."


    "Isn''t it the husband that the king of Qiang found for duo''er? What''s going on? "


    "It''s not likely to be my husband''s son, but it must be someone''s son. He is so young that he has entered the school together with the king. It must not be easy. "


    "But today, it''s a prosperous time for me to be a Qiang. It''s not suitable for the Han people."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there was a lot of discussion.


    Many people are concerned about Zhang Xiu and begin to resist the emergence of Zhang Xiu. Because in their opinion, Zhang Xiu is not suitable to appear. Of course, the biggest reason is that all the tribes of shaodang Qiang want to marry duo''er, so they can get the support of midang.


    All of a sudden, a Han nationality appeared. People of all tribes felt the crisis and were afraid of competitors. This is the reason why so many people are talking about it and resenting it.


    When Zhang Xiu first entered, she didn''t hear anything. However, the more you get close to him, the more you can feel the hostility.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care much about this.


    Just a bunch of ants.


    Not long ago, Zhang Xiu and midang came to the center of the school yard together, and came to the high platform that had already been built.


    This high platform is four feet long and seven feet wide. Seats are arranged on the upper edge. However, midang did not immediately sit down. He raised his hand and pressed down to signal that everyone would be quiet.


    A pair of eyes, all fall on midang, in the eyes of all people, there is desire and expectation.


    This is their chance!


    They are going to marry dor.


    Midang took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "the arrival of the warriors of shaodang Qiang tribes has made the prosperity of shaodang Qiang unprecedented. You all know the purpose of bringing you together. "


    "That''s right. Today, I want to choose the strongest warrior as dor''s husband. Only the brave can stand up and be respected. ""Before that, I''d like to introduce you to someone."


    "He''s from a big man."


    "And it''s been famous for a long time."


    Midang said two words in succession, then pointed to Zhang Xiu and said: "that''s him, Zhang Xiu, the Great Han Dynasty''s Taiwei. Zhang Taiwei''s visit to shaodangqiang coincides with the grand occasion of shaodangqiang. It''s really rare. "


    "Tai Wei Zhang is a brave man."


    "In this contest, I set the standard that the person who can win Zhang Taiwei will enter the next round of selection. Only those who beat Zhang Taiwei can have a chance to compete in the final contest. "


    Midang said, "there are warriors in every tribe. You are all brave people, and many of you know Wang. Now, it''s time for you to show your strength. "


    After that, midang looked at Zhang Xiu and asked, "Tai Wei Zhang, how dare you fight?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "this stage is wide enough. It''s here to compete. In this way, everyone around can see clearly, what does the king of Qiang think? "


    Zhang Xiu did not refuse midang''s proposal.


    However, Zhang Xiu has her own plan. He didn''t plan to take over everyone''s competition alone, but Zhang Xiu had to prove her strength. This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Midang said with a smile: "no problem!"


    Immediately, mindang looked at the countless people gathered around him and said, "Great Han Taiwei Zhang Xiu is standing on the stage. Warriors of all tribes can come up to challenge. Next, it''s up to you. "


    With that, midang stepped back and sat down.


    Jiang Ye stood behind midang, while Sima Yi, Pang Tong, Wang Yue, Yang Xiu and others all stepped back, leaving the middle of the high platform for Zhang Xiu to compete.


    There was a lot of discussion.


    However, the tribal warriors who had already gathered did not come forward for the time being.


    Around the stage, in the crowd.


    There is a pretty boy who disguises herself as a man. She disguised herself as a man with her maid and hid in the crowd. When she heard midang''s words, she was excited to see Zhang Xiu, who was dressed in white, standing in a beautiful and handsome way.


    Duo''er clenches her fist and cheers for Zhang Xiu secretly. She doesn''t look up to the rest of shaodang. The people she wants to marry must be heroes.


    A hero like Zhang Xiu.


    This is dor''s idea.


    Duo''er is full of expectation. She hasn''t seen Zhang Xiu, but for no reason, she is sure that Zhang Xiu will win.


    Time goes by.


    However, in a short time, there was no one to challenge. Because no one knows the true level of Zhang Xiu, the first to challenge, there are always risks, one by one are hesitant.


    But the quiet atmosphere will eventually be broken.


    "I''ll meet you."


    In the crowd, there was a 7-foot-long, medium-sized, muscular young man who strode out. He was a warrior of shaodang Qiang. When he came to shaodang Qiang, he had the idea of defeating the masses and marrying duo''er.

 Chapter 575

    His name was Jilu.


    He is just over 20 years old now. He has already defeated the invincible in his tribe and has great strength. Jilu also participated in the war many times. He has the courage to fight, strong fighting capacity and strong fighting consciousness.


    He strode forward and soon came to the stage.


    Jilu said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, although you are a great Han Taiwei, you are nothing in my shaodang Qiang. A Chinese like you, with delicate skin and tender flesh, is really vulnerable. "


    At this point, Jilu said haughtily, "I Jilu, I don''t even want to fight you. It''s a waste of my strength. Now go back to the king and sit as a mascot. Don''t mix in the rest. Otherwise, you must be injured. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "there is a saying among US Han people that barking dogs don''t bite. You''re a barking dog. You''re vulnerable. "


    "You want to die!"


    Jilu was furious when he heard that.


    He let Zhang Xiu roll to one side, give Zhang Xiu face, did not expect, Zhang Xiu even dare to resist.


    He doesn''t care what Taiwei Zhang Xiu is.


    All he knew was that he wanted to beat everyone to marry dor and set foot on the top of his life.


    Mi Dang saw all this in his eyes, with a faint smile in his mouth, looking like watching a play. At this time, a Guli came to midang''s side and sat down, saying: "father, Zhang Xiu is so rebellious, in case he is injured, it''s not easy to do."


    Midang said: "what''s the relationship between Zhang Xiu''s injury and me? That''s what he''s willing to do


    When aguli heard the words, he said no more.


    At this moment, everyone''s eyes are gathered on Zhang Xiu and Jilu.


    "Kill


    Jilu roared, swung his right hand and rushed directly to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu in the face of killing Jilu, do not hide, pedal forward. In the twinkling of an eye, he was less than a foot away from Jilu. Zhang Xiu immediately stops, standing still, kicking out with a high kick.


    "Pa!"


    Rush over Jilu, impartial, is kicked in the chest by Zhang Xiu''s leg.


    The great power of peiran burst out.


    In a flash, Jilu felt the surge of power, he screamed, only felt his body, viscera were shaking.


    Jilu''s body rose out of control, just like a shell. After drawing an arc in the air, it flew directly out of the high platform and fell into the crowd.


    One by one, the Qiang people retreated, and Jilu fell to the ground.


    "Ah


    Jilu''s body, constantly shaking.


    His skeleton seems to be scattered, and his body is extremely uncomfortable.


    "Wow, that''s great."


    Duo''er is not far from Jilu''s landing. Seeing Jilu''s falling, he can''t stand up. His eyes are shining, and his eyes are shining. She wanted to shout, but she was a female voice, so she didn''t shout.


    She looked at Zhang Xiu and was even more surprised.


    Great!


    It''s gorgeous.


    He is worthy of being a great Han Taiwei.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu.


    A group of Qiang people''s warriors, seeing this scene, all appeared a brief calm. But in the twinkling of an eye, they all began to talk again. But most people, did not recognize the strength of Zhang Xiu, but think that Jilu is a fake fight, is deliberately let Zhang Xiu win.


    Zhang Xiu on the stage clapped her hands and said with disdain: "when the king of Qiang mentioned the warriors of various tribes, he was very proud. He said that the warriors of shaodang Qiang tribe were all brave people who dared to fight and kill, and they were extremely powerful. But I just said one word, a bunch of local chickens and dogs. The fight with Jill just now proved my understanding. It''s too weak to be a warrior of Qiang. It''s true that you are a local chicken and a local dog! "


    The arrogant words are from Zhang Xiu''s mouth.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu is no longer gentle. It was as if the blade of his sword came out of the sheath. The blade was sharp, sharp and tough everywhere. This was Zhang Xiuwu''s attitude.


    He did it on purpose.


    Zhang Xiu''s words clearly spread to many warriors of Qiang people''s tribe. They were filled with righteous indignation one by one, and all of them were angry. In their mouths, they were shouting loudly, asking Zhang Xiu not to be arrogant.


    Countless people, because of Zhang Xiu''s words, began to be hostile to Zhang Xiu. Countless people, because of Zhang Xiu''s words, began to target Zhang Xiu.


    One by one, the Qiang people are fighting with each other.


    "I''ll do it!"


    Under the high stage, someone came out again.


    The man who came out this time was more than eight feet long and strong. He was rugged and huge, like a hill. His name was Pushan, also in his early twenties.


    Pushan looks very old, like a man in his thirties. He stepped onto the stage, stamped his foot and stepped on the stage. In an instant, the ground of the high stage trembled slightly.


    Pu Shan raised his head and said: "Zhang Xiu, I don''t know what means you used to bribe Jilu, so that he would be willing to be beaten and fly out by himself. But with me, you''ll lose. I''ll throw you off the stage as you beat Jill. "Zhang Xiu grinned: "it''s up to you? A man like you is a little better than Jill at most. In the final analysis, the slightly stronger garbage is still in the range of local people. At the end of the day, you''re still a local chicken and a dog, vulnerable. "


    "Rampant!"


    Pu Shan was furious when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    He went directly to less than a Zhang Xiu distance, step forward, right hand into a fist, directly toward Zhang Xiu bang in the past.


    This time, Zhang Xiu didn''t show her feet.


    The fist of his right hand swung up, and his whole body was full of strength.


    It''s a fight between fists.


    Two huge fists, in the twinkling of an eye, have already met.


    "Bang!"


    The fists hit together, making a dull noise.


    "Chaka!"


    Next, there was a crisp sound.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from the pass of the mountain. His fist flashed back and his face was full of pain. It''s said that the fingers are linked to each other. When his fist and Zhang Xiu''s fist compete, the other''s fist is like an indestructible iron. Under the fierce impact, the bones of his fist are directly broken.


    His right hand is almost useless.


    In a short period of time, we can''t work hard.


    At this moment, Pushan''s expression was extremely painful and ferocious on his rough cheek.


    He clenched his teeth and smashed it with his left hand.


    Just when his left hand just came out, Zhang Xiu stepped forward, his right hand became a fist, and one fell on Pushan''s heart. Under the impact of the powerful force, Pu Shan was almost breathless.


    Pushan''s left fist failed and his body bent down.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were shining, and her hands were like lightning on Pu Shan''s shoulders. With the power of Zhang Xiu, Pushan''s shoulder is controlled by death, and Pushan also straightens up.


    At the same time, Zhang Xiu''s thigh raised, knee suddenly hit up.


    "Bang!"


    Pushan, who had just bent down, was hit hard from his knee.


    The kneecap is a very hard bone. Coincidentally, his knee hit Pushan''s jaw. Under the impact of fierce force, Pushan''s front teeth immediately dropped three, and his mouth was full of blood.


    His head is dizzy, under the impact of this power, his head goes up again.


    At the moment, Pushan was already dizzy and dazed.


    At the moment when Pu Shan rose, Zhang Xiu took a wrong step and pulled Pu Shan''s shoulder with her hand. Under the outbreak of violent force, although Pu Shan was big and strong, he also rose up and was thrown out by Zhang Xiu.


    "Bang!"


    Pushan''s body falls to the ground and slides out uncontrollably.


    He fell directly from the edge of the high platform and fell to the ground from the platform. His face was covered with blood. The whole person was lying on the ground, his eyes were dazed.


    At this moment, Pushan has no power to fight any more.


    WOW!!


    There was an uproar around.


    Countless people were shocked. Pushan''s body, as big as a hill, looked strong. But in front of Zhang Xiu, he didn''t even have the slightest resistance and was completely hanged.


    It''s shocking.

 Chapter 576

    "Great, great."


    "It''s hard to imagine that Zhang Taiwei could burst out with such a strong force."


    "So handsome!"


    The incarnation is a fan Mei''s duo''er, the heart is jubilant.


    She wanted to rush up and celebrate. Only in today''s situation, DOR can only hide in the crowd. Her heart, really feel sorry. If this time, you can go to wipe sweat for Zhang Xiu, close observation is perfect.


    Dor dare not go forward.


    She was afraid of being recognized by her father and brother.


    We can only watch from a distance.


    Midang on the stage also has a big mouth. The shape of his mouth is about to lay duck eggs. He knows some news and knows that Zhang Xiu is a military general. He is sure to master martial arts. But midang did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s hand was so violent and ferocious that it was impossible to resist.


    After being stunned, my heart is also in praise, worthy of being the Great Han''s Taiwei.


    If we can promote the marriage of Zhang Xiu and duo''er, it will be very good for shaodang Qiang. Although midang did not frighten Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu showed strength, which he thought was good.


    A Guli sat on one side, smashing his mouth, swallowing a mouthful of saliva, sighed: "father, Zhang Xiu looks gentle and handsome. In the words of Han people in the Central Plains, it is elegant and elegant. Now this burst out of strength, it is simply terrible


    Midang said with a smile: "Zhang xiuqiang, isn''t it good?"


    "Good, good!"


    Ah Guli replied with a smile.


    Shi a, Deng Zhan and others are used to seeing such a scene.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is very strong.


    burned a group of woodlouse of Qiang, in front of Zhang embroidery, only to be hung up.


    Zhang Xiu took down Pushan, carried her hands, and said in a loud voice: "why, such a big shaodang Qiang is the biggest force in Jincheng county. I often hear that I''m a warrior. But now I''m disappointed. Is this the strength of shaodang Qiang warrior? It''s too weak to be a Qiang. "


    "A bunch of local chickens and dogs!"


    Zhang Xiu spoke again.


    His sharp words clearly echoed in the ears of every shaodang Qiang Er Lang.


    The warriors of shaodang Qiang tribes are furious.


    Everyone was angry.


    Want to kill Zhang Xiu and then quickly, are red eyes.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, successfully aroused everyone''s anger, successfully aroused everyone''s anger.


    "I''ll do it!"


    In the crowd, someone came out again.


    The name of the person standing out is Qiantu. Like Pushan, he is as big and strong as a hill. Early summer weather, he bare upper body, revealing the body of a piece of muscle, bronze skin, people are shocked.


    He is also a warrior of shaodang Qiang, a tribe.


    On Qiantu''s shoulder, he carried a mace. The length of this mace is about seven feet. The spines on the top of the mace are unparalleled, shining and chilling.


    It''s scary.


    The tribal chief behind Qiantu has already seen that Zhang Xiu is very powerful. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s Kung Fu is hard, fierce, and overbearing. If you compete with Zhang Xiu''s Kung Fu, you will find yourself dead.


    So tribal chief, let Qiantu go out with weapons. Qiantu''s mace is a very dangerous weapon. Once it is wiped on the body, it will be fatal. Even if you survive, you have to leave a layer of skin. It''s a terrible thing.


    Qiantu took a steady step and soon came to the stage.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Qiantu said: "unarmed competition, no blood and life and death, not a real confrontation. Zhang Xiu, how dare you fight with me? "


    He put out his tongue and licked his lips with iron and blood.


    He''s going to be serious.


    In order to defeat Zhang Xiu, Qiantu doesn''t plan to keep her hand. Of course, if Zhang Xiu is afraid, Zhang Xiu can completely avoid fighting and admit defeat, that''s OK.


    Zhang Xiu asked with a smile, "are you sure you really want to use weapons in the first World War?"


    "Sure!"


    Qiantu clenched her teeth and answered.


    Now, he wants to defeat Zhang Xiu immediately. Because he can''t be defeated. If he is defeated by Zhang Xiu again, he doesn''t know where to lose the glory of his tribe, the glory of shaodang Qiang and the face of shaodang Qiang.


    This is intolerable.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t answer immediately. Instead, she looked at midang and asked, "King Qiang, there is nothing to say. Qiantu decides to fight with weapons. What if he hurts Qiantu, or if he can''t control it and kills Qiantu? "


    Midang zhengse said, "I''m burning in the middle of the Qiang people. I advocate the strong. If you kill him by mistake, or you kill him directly. That''s Qiantu''s own life. It has nothing to do with Taiwei. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "YesWang Yue came forward to salute.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go to your camp and bring my weapons."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to get off the stage immediately.


    Zhang Xiu came to Jincheng county from Jixian County, and also brought the overlord gun. But his overlord gun was not in the camp where he lived alone, but in the camp where Wang Yue and others lived.


    To compete with weapons, Zhang Xiu can use her own sabre, but in a big fight, Longquan sword is not conducive to display, and the most suitable weapon is still overlord gun.


    Only the weight of Bawang gun can bear the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Qiantu''s mace is waving in the air and falling on the table. With a cold smile, he said: "Zhang Xiu, whatever weapon you want, you can find it in the army. You''re bluffing at best. "


    Zhang xiudao: "I hope you can have such calm and arrogance again later."


    "You will surely lose!"


    Qiantu held his head high and spoke with determination.


    "Qiantu, kill Zhang Xiu."


    Chieftain of Qiantu''s tribe, orders in a loud voice. As the head of the tribe, although he knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful, he also sees the opportunity now. In the case that countless people are hostile to Zhang Xiu, if Qiantu defeats or kills Zhang Xiu, he will gain great prestige.


    This is a great opportunity.


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    "If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, you will never stop."


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    ¡­¡­


    Around the platform, many people began to shout. Originally, Zhang Xiu lost two people in a row, and both of them were overbearing, which shocked and angered countless people.


    Countless Qiang people hope to kill Zhang Xiu and wash away their shame.


    One after another, the voice soared into the sky, and it was endless.


    When Qiantu heard this, his blood was boiling.


    He was inspired.


    Zhang Xiu sees all this in her eyes, but a touch of coldness rises from the corner of her mouth. When he came back, he wanted to completely subdue shaodangqiang. Today, countless Qiang people place their hopes on Qiantu. He wants to make the Qiang people who burn dangqiang despair and feel helpless.


    There is no doubt that he will win this battle.


    Time is not long, Wang Yue carrying Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun, came to the stage, the overlord gun to Zhang Xiu''s hands. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun in hand, the whole person''s momentum rises again, murderous boiling.

 Chapter 577

    The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is astonishing in weight, but it complements each other with Zhang Xiu''s strength. The sharp Bawang gun is now in Zhang Xiu''s hands. With Zhang Xiu''s strength, the Bawang gun swings up and falls down.


    Bang!


    The end of the barrel of the gun hit the platform.


    The high platform is not made of wood, but of bluestone. The barrel of the gun hit the bluestone. In a flash, the stone chips splashed around and directly knocked a pothole out of the ground.


    Zhang Xiu held a gun in her right hand and hooked her hand to Qiantu. She said with a smile, "come on!"


    "Kill


    Qiantu swung the mace and smashed it.


    When the mace passed in the air, the sharp spike broke through the air, and there was a sharp howling sound.


    The sound is very harsh.


    Zhang Xiu kick at the foot, Overlord gun immediately up. He did not use fancy moves, nor did he use dexterous shooting, but simply swung the overlord gun to meet him.


    As the king of Qiang said, Qiang people advocate the strong.


    Only hard meets hard!


    The overlord gun left a gun shadow in the air. In a flash, he came to the front of the mace.


    "Dang!"


    Two weapons hit.


    In a flash, the sparks were all over the place.


    The surging power, like a vast river and sea, penetrates directly into the mace. At that time, the spike on the mace was directly bent down.


    The power of the mace is transmitted to Qiantu''s palms, making Qiantu''s palms numb. His own center of gravity, also can''t maintain, push back.


    At this moment, Qiantu''s face changed slightly.


    What a powerful force.


    He really can''t understand how Zhang Xiu''s thin body can burst out, which is like a tsunami.


    It''s too strong.


    When Qiantu retreated, Zhang Xiu stepped forward. The overlord gun swung up again and smashed down again.


    Qiantu holds the mace in both hands, just like a overlord lifting the tripod, raising his hand to resist the falling overlord gun.


    Dang!!


    The harsh sound of impact, sounded again.


    Zhang Xiu does not retreat, but Qiantu hums and retreats again. In particular, Qiantu''s hand holding the mace is already sore in the arm, and the tiger''s mouth of the palm has severe pain.


    It''s almost unstoppable.


    In Qiantu''s eyes, he looks frightened.


    But he can''t ask for mercy. If he asks for mercy in front of the Qiangtang people. Then in his life, he can''t look up in front of everyone.


    Hoo!!


    The overlord gun passed in the air and fell for the third time.


    Qiantu clenches her teeth and tries her best to drum up her strength. She holds the mace in her hands to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    "Dang!"


    The overlord gun fell down again, and the third crash rang out.


    At this moment, Qiantu can no longer bear peiran''s power. Under the impact of the crushing force, Qiantu''s palm was torn and his mace fell to the ground. However, he could not suppress his blood, so he vomited blood when he opened his mouth.


    Kick! Kick!


    Qiantu is still retreating.


    Zhang Xiu''s Bawang gun was put on the stage, his hands were leaning on the Bawang gun, and the whole person jumped up.


    He raised his foot and kicked it out.


    "Bang!"


    The sole of the foot is on Qiantu''s chest. In a flash, Qiantu''s body is struck by lightning. He had been in chaos of Qi and blood. With this blow, he vomited blood in his mouth again. His body also rose from the ground and flew backwards. He just fell on the edge of the high platform.


    "Poof!"


    Qiantu fell to the ground and vomited blood again.


    "I, I, I..."


    Qiantu opened his mouth and said three of me in succession, but before he finished his words, his head tilted and he fainted.


    At this moment, there was a complete silence.


    Lost!


    Qiantu failed again!


    The three warriors who burned to be Qiang in a row were all defeated by Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu and Qiantu finally fight, Zhang Xiu does not leave his hand, which is enough to kill Qiantu with one shot.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s mercy.


    Countless shaodang Qiang people are shocked by their faces and despairing in their eyes.


    It''s so strong!


    Zhang Xiu is so powerful that it is hard to defeat her.


    Midang looked at all this with admiration. It''s worthy of Zhang Xiu. With such strength, it''s hard to beat the Qiang people. When he was young, he was also a warrior of the Qiang nationality. He was invincible in the battlefield, and he took the lead in every fight.


    Although today''s midang, physical decline, Qi and blood also began to decline. But his eyesight is still there. Looking at the whole shaodangqiang, I''m afraid he can''t find anyone who can win Zhang Xiu.


    It''s so hard!


    Zhang Xiu is carrying the overlord gun, just like the God of war.


    His eyes swept, one by one Qiang people all avoid Zhang Xiu''s eyes, dare not look at Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes.


    Everyone was scared by Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu took a breath and said, "as I said just now, I''m a Qiang''s son. Although I''m brave, in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, you''re all local chickens. Do some of you dare to fight? "


    There was silence under the stage.


    No one spoke!


    At this time, everyone can see the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    To challenge again is not to show courage, but to insult yourself.


    Pushan, Qiantu and others are famous warriors in shaodangqiang, but they have no resistance in front of Zhang Xiu. No one can resist Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is invincible.


    Seeing that no one else came forward, Zhang Xiu continued: "although in my eyes, Zhang Xiu''s eyes, you are a group of local people. But I have to say that shaodang is brave and valiant


    "You don''t have enough fighting power in a single round. But shaodang Qiang is an ethnic group and a tribe. Shaodang Qiang has combat power and can win battles. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "today''s shaodang Qiang, based on Jincheng County, has its own strength as a major Qiang ethnic group juxtaposed with Baima Qiang."


    When the Qiang people heard the news, their faces relaxed.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu, there was more recognition.


    Zhang Xiu is invincible. No one is her rival. Although Zhang Xiu''s words made shaodang Qiang angry, they respected the strong.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu praised shaodang Qiang, and countless shaodang Qiang people were secretly happy.


    This is recognized by the strong.


    They are proud of it.


    When Mi saw this, his eyes narrowed, and he felt the strength of Zhang Xiu''s means.


    In the past, he wantonly suppressed shaodang Qiang, saying that all the people who burned Dang Qiang were rubbish. Then he used his absolute strength to crush the warriors of shaodang Qiang, making shaodang Qiang look pale. No one dared to be arrogant in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Finally, he praised shaodangqiang.


    The combination of grace and power quickly established the image of Zhang Xiu and made shaodang Qiang people recognize her.


    It is worthy of being a man who rose to be a Taiwei in a short time. Midang''s heart is more optimistic about Zhang Xiu. At this time, he stood up and went to the side of Zhang Xiu.


    Midang stood upright and bent, and said in a loud voice, "today''s competition of shaodang Qiang is to choose a husband for duo''er. Dor is the daughter of the king. The man he wants to marry must be a great hero. You can''t beat Zhang Xiu and prove yourself. Then, the person who marries duo''er can only be Zhang Xiu. "


    When Qiang heard about the burning around, they didn''t have any opinions.


    Who can refute it?


    first, the king of the Qiang is the king of Qiang, he has absolute prestige in the tribe; second, the daughter is the daughter of the daughter, who will marry to him, and has the final say; third, Zhang embroidery is so strong that everyone dare not go forward to challenge.


    On the contrary, it was Zhang Xiu, who was surprised. He did not expect that after the contest, midang would come and marry his daughter to him.


    Midang turned to Zhang Xiu and asked, "Zhang Xiu, would you like to marry my daughter?"


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    For Zhang Xiu, marrying midang''s daughter is of great help to win over shaodangqiang and even govern Liangzhou.


    So Zhang Xiu agreed directly.

 Chapter 578

    The warriors of all the tribes who burned the Qiang people under the stage all looked gloomy. They came one by one full of confidence and finally got nothing. Especially their personal force, in front of Zhang Xiu, is the general existence of slag.


    In terms of personal strength, Zhang Xiu is invincible to Qiang people.


    In terms of her own power, Zhang Xiu''s strength is the best in the northwest, while Han Sui and Ma Chao are not as good as Zhang Xiu.


    In terms of appearance, Zhang Xiu is more able to hang all Qiang people.


    No matter which point, Zhang Xiu won.


    Under this premise, who can stop it? If the king of Qiang is not satisfied with Zhang Xiu, there is still hope. But the problem is that even midang is satisfied with Zhang Xiu, and the people of various tribes have no hope.


    "King, I have something to say!"


    Suddenly someone came out of the crowd.


    The person who stands out is the head of a big tribe in shaodang Qiang.


    With a bright smile on his face, midang said, "master MiFu, what do you have to say?"


    Mi Fu said: "it is well known that the king of Qiang dotes on duo''er. But now, such a hasty and easy decision to get married. What if dor doesn''t want to


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Mi Dang hears the speech, but he laughs.


    Laughter, full of heroic.


    Mi Fu''s face was puzzled and asked, "why is the king laughing?"


    Midang said: "what I''m laughing at is that the worry of the clan leader of MiFu is not a problem at all. Of course, you can ask dor himself about it. Today, the girl must be dressed as a man in the crowd. Dor, come on


    In the crowd, DOR was a little shy.


    She and servant girl together, fast forward. Soon, I came to the stage.


    Zhang Xiu also noticed that duo''er''s eyebrows rose slightly, showing a look of consternation. Yesterday, he saw that duo''er was extraordinary. It was not easy to predict that duo''er was the daughter of King Qiang.


    Duo''er is looked at by Zhang Xiu, and her heart is even more coy. She stepped forward shyly and stood in front of midang''s body, her heart beating incessantly. On the pretty face, the rosy clouds all over the world make it more beautiful.


    Midang asked, "Duo Er, would you like to marry Zhang Taiwei?"


    "Yes!"


    Dor''s voice was as small as a mosquito, but she nodded busily, like a chicken pecking rice.


    Midang turned to MiFu and asked, "chief MiFu, what else do you have to say?"


    "No!"


    MiFu shook his head and stopped talking.


    Looking at this, it is obvious that Lang Youqing intends to. Does he not offend when he speaks again?


    Zhang Xiu stood in front of midang and said, "King Qiang, gather the heads of all tribes into the king''s tent. I have something to say."


    "Good!"


    Mi Dang responds directly.


    Yesterday, he said that Zhang Xiu would lead shaodang Qiang to surrender if she could defeat all the warriors of shaodang Qiang tribe. What''s more, now that Zhang Xiu is willing to marry his daughter, he is willing to stand on Zhang Xiu''s side.


    Midang directly gave an order to let the heads of the tribes go to the king''s tent to discuss affairs.


    At the same time, midang also let the tribal warriors continue to fight. It''s just that without the flowers, the warriors of the Qiang tribe are all withered like eggplants beaten by frost, and they are powerless to fight.


    Zhang Xiu went back to the king''s tent with midang.


    All the guests and guests are seated.


    Zhang Mi embroidered on both sides, not on the left and right sides.


    Midang looked at the clan heads of shaodang Qiang tribe and said, "I think you have seen the strength and ability of Zhang Taiwei. My king wants to lead shaodang Qiang to surrender to Zhang Taiwei. What do you think? "


    He threw out a bet with Zhang Xiu.


    This is the bet given by Zhang Xiu when she saw Mi yesterday.


    When people heard the words, they thought of each other.


    Although shaodangqiang is a big tribe, in fact, it is also formed by various small tribes. There are countless small tribes forming the present shaodangqiang.


    This is not the dynasty structure of the Central Plains.


    Midang is only the head of a clan.


    Although midang has prestige, midang must seek the opinions of all tribes.


    Midang continued: "if you have any ideas, just say it. Now that Taiwei Zhang is here, you can say it. If Zhang Taiwei leaves, it''s not convenient to continue


    All the faces are thinking.


    A moment later, Mi Fu took the lead in saying: "Zhang Taiwei, I have two questions."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please go ahead."


    Mi Fu replied, "first, what good can I get if I surrender to Zhang Taiwei?"


    There are only interests between countries. To narrow it down, shaodang Qiang tribe should submit to Zhang Xiu. If there is no benefit, why should shaodang Qiang live and die for Zhang Xiu? Why should we submit to Zhang Xiu?


    This is the problem of Mi Fu.Zhang Xiu had an idea about this for a long time, so she said, "your question is quite good. Among the Han people, there is a saying that all the bustle in the world is for profit, and all the bustle in the world is for profit. "


    "In general, it''s profit seeking."


    "It''s not a matter of one person or one family that shaodang Qiang tribe submit to me. It''s a matter related to the whole shaodang Qiang people. If the shaodang Qiang people submit to me and just fight for me, it won''t do any good. I can''t say that. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "in fact, after I entered Liangzhou, I have mentioned two points. The first is to reduce the taxes on people''s farming; the second is to reduce the corvee in Liangzhou. "


    "Both are visible benefits, but not the main ones."


    "In addition, for shaodangqiang, there are three points."


    "First, Qiang people can be officials."


    Zhang Xiu throws out the first sentence.


    As soon as the words came out, all the clan heads of shaodang Qiang tribes were all staring and breathing quickly. The expressions on each face were all excited.


    After all, Qiang people are not Han people.


    It is almost impossible for Qiang people to be Han officials. Even midang was shocked and said, "Zhang Taiwei, are you serious?"


    "Nature is true."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and replied: "in short, shaodang Qiang, for example, was subordinated to his official and incorporated into Liangzhou. How can we manage such a huge shaodangqiang? If Han officials are sent here, first, they don''t understand the situation of the Qiang people, and second, they are likely to cause conflicts. "


    "It was originally for the sake of the Qiang people, but it may have been complained and criticized. But it''s different for the Qiang people to manage them. "


    "It''s easier for Qiang people to understand the situation of Qiang people and communicate with each other."


    "In addition, as long as the Qiang people have outstanding ability to govern the local areas, and the military generals have the ability to fight, they can not be limited to Liangzhou, they can continue to be promoted and used to be officials in Liangzhou."


    Zhang Xiu talked about the benefits of the Qiang people. In the final analysis, this is actually the system of autonomous regions of later generations, in which ethnic minorities manage ethnic minorities. But the manager must be on Zhang Xiu''s side and serve her.


    Otherwise, it is impossible to get an appointment.


    When the heads of the tribes heard this, they were all overjoyed.


    They are all clan leaders. If they set up official posts among the Qiang people, they must be at the top and be appointed first.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "second, the Qiang people should study, not herding sheep."


    "After the unification of Liangzhou, scholars will be transferred from Chang''an to establish academies in Liangzhou, so that scholars can preach and teach, and Qiang people can read."


    "Some of you will ask, what''s the use of reading? It''s better to raise sheep than to work. Such an idea is wrong. "


    "Because of reading, I can be an official."


    "For the young scholars who have graduated from the Academy, we will examine them separately and start a new career. As long as they pass the examination, they will be appointed as officials and put on local posts. "


    "Reading changes fate. It''s not just talk."


    Zhang xiudao said: "among the Qiang people, countless people are illiterate and illiterate, but as long as they read, they will naturally have the opportunity to become officials. But if you don''t study, you have little chance to be an official in your life. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "unless you can fight on the battlefield and fight with your life, you will have a chance to become a general in the army and stand out. For the vast majority of people, reading is the only way out. "


    When they heard the words, they were all excited.


    Wen Yan, the head of shaodang Qiang tribe, agreed with Zhang Xiu.


    For most people, reading is the only way out. They are the heads of all the tribes. They all hope that their own people will have a good way out. They don''t want their children and grandchildren to be mediocre.


    One by one, when they looked at Zhang Xiu, they all had a fiery look in their eyes.


    This is their chance.


    If they submit to Zhang Xiu, they will have a chance to change their fate.

 Chapter 579

    Zhang Xiu looked around at the crowd and saw that they were excited one by one. She knew that what he had explained moved these people. Although this is just the idea of the general direction, the specific implementation still needs Yang Xiu as Liangzhou governor to implement, but as long as there is a general direction, we can go step by step.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "the matter of starting a scholar''s career will be carried out after unifying Liangzhou. For the rest of the people in Liangzhou, they don''t know the news. If the patriarchs return to their respective tribes and take the lead in selecting the seedlings that can be cultivated, and then find their teachers to teach them, they will surely be able to take the lead. The first step is the chance


    When they heard this, their eyes lit up.


    This is an opportunity!


    If many of them can pass the examination and become officials, it would be very beautiful.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "third, I give shaodangqiang a certain number of taxis."


    "Now there is an academy in Chang''an called Chang''an Academy. The president of the academy is Yang Biao, a famous scholar in the world. There are many famous scholars and scholars in the teaching, and even Pang Degong, the official teacher


    "In the Academy, it can be said that famous teachers gather."


    "If you study in the Academy, as long as you can pass the graduation examination. To be an official is almost certain. "


    "Every year, I give ten places to shaodang Qiang."


    "You are allowed to recommend shaodangqiang''s children to study in Chang''an Academy."


    Zhang Xiu has thrown out a trump card.


    Although the second point of Zhang Xiu is beneficial to most people of shaodang Qiang. However, such a condition is based on the fact that the clan heads of shaodang Qiang are fair and just and willing to seek benefits for more Qiang people.


    Those who are a little selfish may not be willing to. Because for the heads of the tribes, there are not many benefits they really get. As for being an official, he may not be able to pass the selection.


    Let''s just say they have a better chance.


    The third point of Zhang Xiu is different. It is a real benefit.


    Whether it is midang or other shaodang Qiang clan leaders, they all have their own children, their favorite children and grandchildren. They all hope that their children and grandchildren will have a good life.


    What''s more, Qiang people are inferior to Han people.


    The Qiang people are barbarians, and they are not moralized.


    Although Qiang people live in Liangzhou, that''s all. They have no cultural heritage and fear the Central Plains. In the same way, Qiang people also admire the Central Plains culture.


    This is the psychology of contradiction.


    Zhang Xiu gave shaodang Qiang tribes the opportunity to send their own descendants to Chang''an to study, admire the splendor of the kingdom of heaven, learn the culture of the kingdom of heaven, and even have the opportunity to become an official.


    One heart, excited, looking at Zhang Xiu, more close.


    This is the interest that moves people.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to win over the Qiang people, she may not be able to win them over by her own strength. If we want all the Qiang people to follow him, we must have a stable interest transmission.


    For Zhang Xiu, he has a deeper consideration. What he wants to do is to transform the Qiang people into Han people.


    If the barbarians came to China, it would be better for China.


    After the Qiang people arrived in the Central Plains, they assimilated and became Han people. They recognized Han people and even regarded themselves as Han people. Then Zhang Xiu asked the Qiang people who entered the academy to govern the place, change more Qiang people''s thoughts, and even assimilate them.


    Zhang Xiu''s ambition is to assimilate all Qiang people.


    In the end, there were no Qiang people.


    This can''t be accomplished overnight, but Zhang Xiu''s heart is full of such ambition.


    What he wanted to see was that all the people were Han.


    It''s a family in the world!


    At this time, another patriarch stood up. When he looked at Zhang Xiu, he looked respectful. He didn''t have any hostility or even a very humble attitude. He didn''t dare to face up to Zhang Xiu.


    The man said, "Zhang Taiwei, shaodang Qiang has a large population. There are only ten places for such a big shaodangqiang to study in Chang''an Academy. It''s hard to arrange and allocate. Can you adjust the quota? In shaodangqiang, the number of tribes alone is no less than dozens. Ten places are obviously unevenly distributed. "


    The words resonated.


    Ten places are too few.


    "Yes, yes, please spare some time for Zhang Taiwei to give more places."


    "Please consider it."


    "Zhang Taiwei, it''s not easy for people who burn to be Qiang to read. Now it''s not easy to be a Qiang. With such a good opportunity, you see, give more places. "


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, they keep talking.


    All the people are looking forward to Zhang Xiu. There is a look of expectation on her rough face.


    Midang also joined in, expecting to say: "Zhang Taiwei, ten places are really a little less. Do you think we can give some more places for the people of Qiang nationality to study


    This scene, in Pang Tong''s eyes, opened his eyes. Pang Tong didn''t expect that he could still operate in this way just for one college quota.Yang Xiu also sat down. He saw Zhang Xiu''s maneuvers, which convinced shaodang Qiang. He was eager to ask for Zhang Xiu one by one, and he admired Zhang Xiu even more.


    He kept them in mind.


    These words of Zhang Xiu are what he wants to promote after he takes charge of Liangzhou, and also the key to his entry into Liangzhou.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s not that I don''t want to give more places. It is because Chang''an academy pursues the educational strategy of teaching talents and cultivating useful people. "


    "If you''re all in a hurry, put a bunch of people in. In the end, it will affect the teaching of the Academy, so that those who enter the Academy will eventually have nothing to learn and will not be able to graduate from the Academy. Isn''t it a shame or a waste of places? "


    "It''s bad for you, too."


    Zhang Xiu said: "among the academies, there are not only Qiang people, but also taxis recruited from all over the world. Nowadays, the academy has a huge scale, and the original quota has been set, so we can''t increase the quota at will. "


    "Because Shao Dang Qiang is willing to submit to his official position and serve for me, how can I not repay him for what he has done? I just cut out ten places from the taxi quota of the Academy."


    "When I return to Chang''an, I have to intercede with Yang Biao, the dean of the Academy. After all, it''s them, not me, who preach and teach


    Zhang Xiu said: "although I''m Taiwei, I can''t manage these old gentlemen."


    All of them were dumb.


    One by one, they frowned and looked like a pity.


    Zhang Xiu looks in the eye, in the heart a smile. He knew that scarcity was the most important thing. If Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, there would be one hundred and two hundred places. The people who burned the Qiang would not care about it and would not pay attention to Chang''an Academy.


    Because it is rare, it is the most precious.


    Because rare, will cherish.


    He can directly give more places, but such a thing is obviously not cost-effective.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although ten places are not enough, some tribes may not have suitable candidates for the time being, so they can put them on hold. And this quota is available every year. The tribes that have no quota this year can come back next year. In a word, it''s also a shame to choose smart people if they are arranged to go but can''t graduate. Ten places a year is the limit. "


    When midang heard this, he said with regret, "just ten places, ten places. After discussion, we will arrange people to escort them to Chang''an Academy. "


    "No problem!"


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu is determined in her heart, which is another thing.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu continued: "speaking of it, there is still a very critical thing for my official to be a Qiang. That is to unite the forces of shaodangqiang to attack baimaqiang. Are there any of you who are familiar with baimaqiang? "

 Chapter 580

    "Taiwei Zhang, I''m familiar with MiFu!"


    MiFu stands up directly. Now, he wants to make a little impression in front of Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu can remember him and benefit his tribe.


    Zhang Xiu said, "please speak to the head of MiFu clan."


    Mi Fu said: "the forces of Baima Qiang are mainly in Wudu County. And most of the baimaqiang people live in the mountains. Baimaqiang is different from shaodangqiang. Shaodangqiang is a mixture of Han and Qiang. Baimaqiang do not want to live in the mountains. "


    "These people are brave and tough, and they are not easy to encircle and suppress."


    "When I was young, I had been to baimaqiang and was familiar with some routes of baimaqiang. If we want to attack baimaqiang, we are willing to participate. In addition, the sons of my tribe are willing to participate. "


    "Our tribe is willing to offer 1500 people," he said


    "Taiwei Zhang, our tribe has 800 people."


    "Taiwei Zhang, I have a thousand people in my tribe."


    "Taiwei Zhang, our tribe has 1200 people."


    ¡­¡­


    The heads of the tribes spoke one after another.


    These are very smart people. When there is no good, they all keep silent. Even though king mindang of Qiang said he wanted to be obedient, none of them said so. But now, after seeing the benefits, all of them enthusiastically support Zhang Xiu and are willing to send troops.


    Everyone, standing on Zhang Xiu''s side, is willing to send troops.


    This scene made midang feel deeply. Even if he is the king of Qiang, he is the co Lord of shaodang Qiang. But in shaodang Qiang, these people are not so active in recruiting troops.


    But now, they are sending troops.


    After feeling in my heart, my heart is also eager. As the largest tribe in shaodang Qiang, they all said, "Zhang Taiwei, I''ll be 3000 elite soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I understand the good intentions of the king of Qiang and the clan leaders. I would like to thank you here. However, many tribes sent troops without unified integration. Therefore, I entrust the king of Qiang to deal with this matter. Please count all the soldiers and horses, register them, and then give them to me in a unified way. "


    The heads of the tribes all felt sorry.


    Midang is lucky to have a lovely daughter. They envy midang, but they can''t help it. On the one hand, midang was the king of Qiang, on the other hand, midang was also Zhang Xiu''s father-in-law.


    Moreover, midang''s strength is also the strongest among the tribes.


    When Mi Dang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was happy and said, "no problem. I promise to deal with this matter well."


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, then looked at the heads of the tribes, and continued: "if you have any knowledge of the topography of Baima Qiang, you can recommend it. The topography of Wudu County is different from that of Jincheng County, which is more dangerous. We need enough people to understand the topography. "


    "I''ll ask more questions later."


    When they heard this, they asked one after another.


    It''s a great opportunity for them. Are willing to arrange for people to ask, in order to understand the situation.


    Mi Fu first took the lead: "Zhang Taiwei, I immediately returned to the tribe and then mobilized the soldiers."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed, with a look of approval.


    MiFu left.


    As soon as the others saw this, they left one after another. They all left in a hurry and returned to their respective tribes, ready to mobilize troops to join them.


    All the heads of the tribes will leave soon.


    In the barracks, there are only midang and Zhang Xiu.


    Ah Guli took the initiative to say: "father, if my younger sister marries Taiwei, we have to do something about it. Although time is pressing, I''ll make arrangements immediately and get things done as soon as possible. Tonight, in accordance with the Han people''s saying, bridal chamber candlelight


    "Well, do it now."


    When midang heard that, he agreed directly.


    Midang continued: "Zhang Taiwei, my counselor Jiang ye, is very talented. Now that I''m subordinate to you, I don''t know if Zhang Taiwei can arrange a position for Jiang ye? "


    Zhang xiudao said, "is Jiang ye not staying in shaodangqiang?"


    Mi Dang said: "I''ve wronged Mr. Jiang. After all, many times after my surrender, I mainly followed Zhang Taiwei''s arrangement, and he played a much smaller role in my life. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Yang Xiu sitting below and said, "Yang Xiu, remember to arrange things for Jiang Ye."


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    When we see this, we can rest assured.


    Jiang Ye sits at the bottom, but he is deeply moved when he hears midang''s words.


    Zhang Xiu no longer lingers, leaves and returns to her camp.


    Back in the camp, as soon as he was seated, Yang Xiu said with emotion: "my Lord''s wonderful ideas are really wonderful. I didn''t expect that giving them ten places to study in Chang''an academy would make everyone excited. The method is simple, but it can play an unparalleled role. "Speaking of this, Yang Xiu was slightly excited and continued: "it can be said that this played the role of final settlement. Without this strategy, it is always a little bit worse. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is nature. There is not enough interest to win over. How can we make all Qiang tribes willingly submit and serve us?"


    "Yes


    All said yes.


    Several people chatting in the camp, it seems very relaxed. In today''s situation, there is no big problem with burning dangqiang. The next step is to wait for the troops of the two tribes to gather, and then go to Wudu County.


    Time went by and it was night.


    The shaodang Qiang people who gather here during the day have already left, and the rest are from the midang tribe. Now, however, there is a lot of noise in the tribe.


    It''s Zhang Xiu''s wedding at night.


    Duo''er married Zhang Xiu, arranged by Jiang Ye. He gathered all the people of the tribe to celebrate. Everyone together, killing cattle and sheep, lively.


    A bunch of bonfires burning, very lively.


    Countless people sang and danced.


    When Zhang Xiu and duo''er are pushed out, they perform Etiquette under the starry sky. Now in May and June, the sky is full of bright stars, as if celebrating for Zhang Xiu and duo''er.


    Under the chairmanship of Jiang ye, Zhang Xiu and duo''er completed their wedding. However, Jiang Ye''s arrangement is different from that of Han people''s wedding, and it is also mixed with some of the etiquette of shaodang Qiang, which makes it nondescript.


    Fortunately, the wedding was very lively, and countless people came to congratulate and bless.


    Countless people cheered.


    Countless people are shouting for it.


    Countless people are boiling.


    This night, doomed to no sleep.


    Zhang Xiu has always been a magnanimous person. With the amount of alcohol he never gets drunk, in the atmosphere of tonight, he is drunk by six or seven points, and his walking is a bit wobbly.


    Late at night, many people were drunk and fell asleep on the ground.


    Zhang Xiu, with the help of duo''er, goes to the camp. Dor didn''t drink much wine, but kept sober all the time. She helped Zhang Xiu. After returning to the tent, they sat on the bed in the yurt tent, their eyes facing each other.


    In a flash, duo''er''s cheek was blushing and red.


    She is fascinated by Zhang Xiu.


    Since the first time she saw Zhang Xiu, she fell in love with her at first sight. This is her destiny.


    This is the one she''s dreaming of.

 Chapter 581

    "Husband, I will undress you."


    Dor is shy. This afternoon, an old woman who specially teaches her about sex gave her some advice to let her know the situation, so she was clear.


    Although Zhang Xiu was seven points drunk, she kept quite sober.


    He let duo Er undress, but duo er''s delicate body, standing in front of him, between the breath, lingering faint fragrance of virginity, make Zhang Xiu''s mood, is also rising.


    He reaches out his hand and embraces dor''s slender waist.


    It has to be said that among the women of Zhang Xiu, duo''er''s figure is the best. Because duo''er was born among Qiang people. Although he learned from Jiang ye, he learned to bow, ride and shoot from an early age. His legs are long and his waist is thin.


    Dor''s cheek is not the most beautiful, her features are not the most delicate, but her figure is the best.


    Without hesitation, Zhang Xiu kisses her directly.


    Two figures, entangled together.


    For a time, the tent was full of wind and rain, and the faint breath came out one after another.


    After a long time, the clouds and rain dissipated.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Two people wake up in the morning, after a wash, Zhang Xiu first to morning exercise. When his morning exercise is over, DOR has ordered people to prepare the meat in the morning.


    After eating, duo''er and Zhang Xiu are wandering in shaodangqiang.


    Zhang Xiu will not leave for the time being.


    He had to wait for the troops of various tribes to gather and go to Wudu County with the help of shaodangqiang troops. At that time, Huang Zhong sent troops from Jixian County and won Wudu County in one go to solve the threat of baimaqiang.


    A duo''er leads the way. Zhang Xiu and duo''er ride a horse and wander around.


    It''s a rare time to get along.


    Time flies, and in the twinkling of an eye, it''s early June. At this time, the weather is getting hot and dry. On this day, when Zhang Xiu and duo''er were wandering outside, Qiang soldiers reported that midang asked him to go back to the king''s tent to discuss business.


    Zhang Xiu knows it in her heart.


    It must be that the troops of all tribes are complete.


    The time has come.


    After Zhang Xiu and duo''er return, duo''er goes back to the yurt tent where she lives to pack up, while Zhang Xiu comes to the king''s tent.


    At this moment, the heads of the tribes in the king''s tent gathered.


    Each face was full of fighting spirit, all of them mobilized their own troops, and midang also counted all of them.


    When they saw that Zhang Xiu arrived, they all got up to salute. Zhang Xiu nodded and took a seat on the throne. When midang had already submitted to Zhang Xiu, midang did not sit in the theme, but in the first place on the left side below.


    Just above, Zhang Xiu was seated.


    With a smile on his face, MI Dang took the initiative to say, "Tai Wei, all the soldiers of the tribes have arrived. This is the number of troops sent by each tribe, and the list of each tribe. "


    With that, a valet handed it up.


    After Zhang Xiu took it, she had a general look, and the total strength was 20000 Qiang soldiers.


    This is not a small number.


    Only by burning down the troops of dangqiang, we can reach 20000. In particular, the Qiang soldiers in shaodang have strong fighting capacity, dare to fight and kill, and are familiar with the situation. Under this premise, although it is 20000 Qiang soldiers, in fact, their combat effectiveness is extraordinary.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "you patriarchs have a heart. Now that the troops have arrived, our officer will take 20000 Qiang soldiers to fight immediately. I will also immediately send orders to my troops, and Huang Zhong will lead 70000 elite soldiers to Wudu County. It can be said that our attack on baimaqiang, hansui and machao in Wudu County was nearly 100000 troops. We will win this battle. "


    "Taiwei is wise!"


    Among the heads of the tribes, MiFu was the first to speak again.


    All agreed.


    Midang took the words and said: "Taiwei, the tribes not only send troops, but also the heads of the tribes say that. I''m willing to fight with Taiwei in this battle, and I''m willing to fight against baimaqiang in person. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu continued: "after the Baima Qiang was destroyed, I will take charge of the money and grain seized, and give 80% to the tribes of shaodang Qiang."


    Boom!!


    All the people were excited when they said this.


    Zhang Xiu took out 80% of the food and money, which was quite rich. Before that, although they sent troops, they actually planned to send their own food and weapons. After all, they got countless benefits from Zhang Xiu.


    Now, Zhang Xiu also gives them benefits.


    This is their chance.


    One by one, when they looked at Zhang Xiu, they were more convinced.


    Zhang Xiu is a fastidious person.


    They are all convinced of Zhang Xiu.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "since everything is ready, let''s send out troops."


    Midang said, "Taiwei, the soldiers of my tribe are led by my son aguli. I can''t go to shaodangqiang because there are still people to sit in. It''s just that aguli is young and impulsive. Please teach him a lot. He''s wrong. Just clean it up. Don''t be merciful. "Below, aguli''s face was embarrassed.


    He is Zhang Xiu''s brother-in-law.


    He is older than Zhang Xiu.


    But it''s really embarrassing to be said that. But aguli can''t refute it. He can only be honest and dare not deny midang''s words.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "don''t worry, King Qiang. I''ll arrange it."


    "Let''s go!"


    Led by Zhang Xiu, the party left Wang''s tent and went straight to the school yard of the army to lead the troops to the battle.


    This time, DOR will go with him.


    Because after Zhang Xiu left shaodang Qiang, she would never come back to shaodang Qiang again, so Duoer disguised herself as a man, pretending to be Zhang Xiu''s guard.


    Yang Xiu, Sima Yi, Wang Yue and others also accompanied him.


    When the army set out, Zhang Xiu had already arranged for Wang Yue to send royal guards to Hanyang county to inform Huang Zhong to mobilize his troops to Wudu County.


    The two armies are directly encircled.


    Zhang Xiu led the army all the way, very fast. After leaving Jincheng County, he entered Longxi County between Jincheng county and Hanyang county. Zhang Xiu led the troops into Longxi County, the prefect of the direct surrender.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, the prefect of Longxi County has no resistance. Zhang Xiu is happy to see its success, after all, can reduce fighting and casualties, he did not adjust the Longxi County officials, still maintain the original.


    The army rushed to Wudu County.


    Although Zhang Xiu led 20000 Qiang soldiers into Wudu County, the soldiers and horses of each county did not resist Zhang Xiu''s army.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has gained prestige.


    Moreover, officials in Wudu County knew that Han Sui and Ma Chao were defeated. When both of them were defeated, they followed Ma Chao and Han Sui again, looking for their own way to die, so they both surrendered.


    As a result, Zhang Xiu had a smooth journey.


    This situation also shocked the clan heads of shaodang Qiang. They also fought with Baima Qiang and entered Wudu County. But when did the officials of Wudu County become so easy to get along with, they were so docile.


    The reason is Zhang Xiu.


    Under the guidance of shaodang Qiang soldiers, Zhang Xiu finally arrived at Qiangdao County, Wudu County. This site is the closest to the mountain where baimaqiang people gather.


    After shaodang Qiang led by Zhang Xiu arrived, Huang Zhong also led the army to arrive only one day later.


    Huang Zhong also swept Wudu County.


    All the counties Huang Zhong passed along his way have been attached to him. In fact, in Wudu County, although baimaqiang was occupied, baimaqiang was mainly occupied in the mountains, so the counties were easy to surrender.


    The army converged outside the city of Qiangdao county and then settled down.

 Chapter 582

    Although the army was stationed outside the city, in fact, 20000 Qiang soldiers and 70000 Zhang Xiu troops were stationed separately. The formation and lineup of the Qiang soldiers were scattered, and they did not or could not form a military array.


    After all, it''s an army of tribes.


    When these Qiang soldiers saw Huang Zhong''s army and saw the training of Huang Zhong''s soldiers, they were shocked. Under Huang Zhong''s command, the flying bear army and others are very powerful. Each of them is very big and muscular. They are very brave.


    After all, the soldiers in the army have good food, pork and bone soup, and they are in good health. Especially the soldier''s momentum, and sharp eyes, is amazing.


    The Qiang soldiers are ashamed of themselves.


    It''s worthy of being Taiwei''s soldier.


    However, the two sides camped separately, but the military food supply was the same.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s order.


    Let Huang Zhong be responsible for providing food for the Qiang soldiers. After all, there are only 20000 Qiang soldiers. It is impossible to make the Qiang soldiers work hard, be brave and not afraid of death, or even take them for their own use without giving them any benefits.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu is looking at the map near Qiangdao county and the situation on the mountain.


    Although there are soldiers in shaodang Qiang who say they are familiar with the situation of Baima Qiang, in fact, no one has ever been to Baima Qiang. We need to make a new inquiry and find out the situation.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside.


    But Huang Zhong strides in.


    Zhang Xiu looked up and saw that it was Huang Zhong and said, "Han Sheng is here. What''s the matter?"


    Huang Zhong replied, "tell my Lord, the reason why I came here is that we are responsible for providing food for the Qiang soldiers these days. Many of the soldiers in the army talked about, "why do we provide food for the Qiang soldiers?"


    "In this case, the humble explained that because the soldiers of shaodang Qiang helped us attack Baima Qiang, they should be given food. It''s a matter of despicable duty. "


    "However, I think it''s not a long-term plan to provide food for shaodang Qiang people."


    Huang Zhong said: "the daily supply of food for 20000 Qiang people is not a small amount. What''s more, we don''t know when we can end this war. "


    "After all, the sentinel is still inquiring and laughing. It''s not clear where baimaqiang is, let alone where Han Sui and Ma Chao are hiding. Long term supply is a great loss to us. "


    Huang Zhong said: "a war that provides food for nearly 100000 people will require countless grains."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Han Sheng, what do you think of the food for the Qiang soldiers?"


    "No!"


    Huang Zhong answered directly.


    Huang Zhong is used to Zhang Xiu''s words. Zhang Xiu avoided talking about food, and obviously had a long-term plan.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the food of Qiang soldiers is not good. After eating our soldiers'' food, there must be a contrast. At this time, Qiang soldiers will envy our soldiers. That''s what I want. "


    "I understand."


    Huang Zhong flashed a light in his eyes and said, "my Lord, this is to annex 20000 Qiang soldiers?"


    Zhang Xiu smile on the face, said: "know me, Han Sheng also!"


    Huang Zhong pondered and said, "the Qiang soldiers will have a sense of attachment when they see our soldiers'' food for a long time. Moreover, it is conducive to soliciting them to see the various advantages of the army. My Lord, this is wonderful! I''m really ashamed that I didn''t see through my humble position before. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it doesn''t matter. You just understand now. Now that we are clear, we will try our best to collect all these Qiang soldiers for our own use. "


    "In Liangzhou, the Qiang soldiers are brave and valiant, especially when they come out of the bitter and cold places."


    "Although these people are not bound, they do not understand the orders and prohibitions of the army, and they do not understand the battle lines in the army. But in fact, daring to fight and kill is an excellent foundation. My plan is to set up a separate Qiang army as a service in the army. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in this way, the elite of the Qiang people can be transferred to prevent the Qiang people from making trouble."


    Huang Zhong said: "my Lord is very thoughtful, and I admire his humble position."


    Huang Zhong has great admiration for Zhang Xiu. Huang Zhong is a man who knows the art of war. But in front of Zhang Xiu, although he is older than Zhang Xiu, he is much worse.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong stepped back.


    After Huang Zhong retired, Zhang Xiu was still checking the map.


    "Newspaper!"


    Wang Yue''s voice came out of the account. He lifted the curtain and entered. His face was slightly dignified. He reported: "Lord, I just received the news from the royal guards. On the northern border of Qiangdao County, seven villages were looted by baimaqiang. All the livestock, women and children in the village were taken away. All the food was taken away. All the young adults have been slaughtered. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s face was cold.


    His eyes were cold.For Zhang Xiu, the Han people under her rule were the foundation, which could not be shaken. It is unforgivable for Zhang Xiu that baimaqiang plundered the common people and slaughtered the Han people.


    It''s the same as Huns.


    Wang Yue continued: "if it''s just this, it''s OK. In the past half a month when we didn''t enter the territory of Qiangdao County, the Baima Qiang people had been out of the mountains seven times and almost every other day. "


    At this point, Wang Yue also stopped and sighed: "under the threat of Baima Qiang, countless people fled. Many people gathered near the county seat of Qiangdao county. Some people left their hometown or hid in the mountains to avoid the Qiang people."


    "It''s time to kill!"


    "Baimaqiang should be killed!"


    Zhang Xiu slaps on the desk in front of him. He angrily leaves his hands. The desk can''t bear it at all. As soon as he slaps it, it falls apart, and the pens and paper are scattered.


    Seeing this, Wang Yue quickly went forward to clean up.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said, "every time, is baimaqiang burning, killing and looting? Slaughtering countless people? "


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu''s face is as heavy as water. In his eyes, there is a cold sense of killing. For baimaqiang, he wants to get along quickly. It''s hard to vent Zhang Xiu''s hatred without killing baimaqiang.


    "Come and call Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Yang Xiu."


    Zhang Xiu directly ordered to go down.


    The soldiers went to send orders, and soon the three entered together. As soon as they entered, they saw the collapsed desk, and their hearts sank. Especially see Zhang Xiu face heavy such as water expression, then know Zhang Xiu moved really angry.


    No matter Yang Xiu, Sima Yi or Pang Tong followed Zhang Xiu, they never saw Zhang Xiu like this. Even in the face of Yuan Shao, Zhang Xiu is leisurely, calm and calm.


    Zhang Xiu gives people the feeling of confidence.


    There is very little anger like this.


    After they saluted, they each stood aside.


    Zhang Xiu let Pang Tong three people sit down, said: "just received the news, baimaqiang went down the mountain to plunder again, and took away countless people. In the first half a month, the baimaqiang people went down the mountain seven times. Almost every other day, they went down the mountain to plunder the people and snatch money and food. "


    "Baimaqiang killed our people and plundered our people. This is a bitter hatred."


    "If you don''t kill baimaqiang, you will never stop."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I called you here to discuss the issue of sending troops. How to eradicate baimaqiang? No matter whether baimaqiang is alive or dead, as long as baimaqiang can be eradicated. "


    Everyone can hear the meaning of blood in Zhang Xiu''s words. It''s murder.


    If you don''t kill baimaqiang, you will never stop.


    The three quickly turned their heads and thought about the way to kill baimaqiang.

 Chapter 583

    Pang Tong''s eyes narrowed and his eyes twinkled. He followed Zhang Xiu for the longest time, knew Zhang Xiu best, and hated the plunder of baimaqiang.


    Pang Tong thought for a while and asked, "Lord, baimaqiang plundered so frequently in a short time. Before that? What''s the news going forward? "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, do you have any news?"


    Wang Yue remembered this matter and quickly replied, "report back to my Lord. One month ahead, although baimaqiang also went down the mountain to plunder, there was only one record."


    Pang Tong said: "well, can we infer that the reason why baimaqiang people have been plundering in succession recently is that they know that the Lord is going to attack with his troops, so they frequently plunder to supplement food. Does it mean that Han Sui and Ma Chao are in the mountains, and their supplies of grain and grass have problems, so they need to plunder more food supplies? "


    "It''s possible to replenish food!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "but there is a problem with grain supply. I''m afraid it''s very difficult. It''s not a matter of a day or two for Baima Qiang people to live near Qiangdao county. For so many years, baimaqiang people have been living in the mountains. Their base camp is in the mountains. Under this premise, they can''t be short of food. "


    Pang Tong said: "but their frequent downhill visits prove that they demand a lot of food."


    Yang Xiu then said, "my Lord, in fact, I found a problem in my humble position. Whether it''s Baima Qiang or shaodang Qiang, most of the Qiang people in the northwest like to hoard grain. "


    "They have a paranoid hoarding of grain."


    "In the bitter and cold areas of Northwest China, not only are foreigners rampant, but the weather is also quite bad, and there are few good times. So it leads to their paranoia about food. "


    Yang Xiu suggested: "the humble consideration is whether we can work hard on food."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed. This is a feasible strategy.


    Take grain as a breakthrough point.


    Baimaqiang is greedy. Once there is a large-scale grain supply, baimaqiang will probably send troops.


    Sima Yi looked coldly and said slowly: "all the Baima Qiang people don''t live in flat and wide places, but almost all hide in the mountains. It''s almost difficult to find the place where the baimaqiang live. "


    "Moreover, there are mountains everywhere in the mountains. After our army entered, on the one hand, they were not familiar with the situation; on the other hand, they were not good at fighting in the mountains. As long as we enter the mountains, we can''t give full play to our advantages. "


    "Even if there are 20000 burning Qiang people, even if they are good at fighting, they will not have an advantage. In this vast and boundless mountain, let alone 100000 people, no matter how many people are thrown into it, there will be no impact and no waves. "


    Sima Yi said: "I think it''s unwise to attack baimaqiang in the mountains. The best way is to lure baimaqiang out of the mountain. It will be much easier for us to solve the problem of baimaqiang who is out of the mountain. "


    Zhang Xiu heard, a general plan, rapid formation in the brain.


    After the completion of the plan, Zhang Xiu said immediately: "this time, I''m going to use Yang Mou. As Yang Xiu said just now, he really lured baimaqiang down the mountain with grain. "


    Sima Yi said, "what will the Lord do?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "I''m building a granary near Qiangdao county. They swagger and transport grain batch by batch and store it all in the granary. "


    "The location of the granary doesn''t need to be kept secret. Let the news get out. I believe that the intelligence of the baimaqiang people will certainly know. After they learn the information, they know that there are countless grains in the granary, and they won''t sit back and ignore it. "


    "As long as there are people in Baima Qiang who can''t suppress their greed, they will come down the mountain."


    "Even if the king of Baima Qiang doesn''t come out, we can still have a breakthrough if we win a part of Baima Qiang. Of course, if the baimaqiang people pour out their nests and move, it is the best and can be annihilated. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "in order to seize the grain in the granary, baimaqiang people will take all kinds of measures, and we can deal with them one by one. This is how I think about the detailed plan... "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said a detailed plan.


    One plan at a time, explain the details of the whole plan clearly.


    After hearing this, Sima Yi, Yang Xiu and Pang Tong all agreed with Zhang Xiu''s plan. They also carefully reasoned with Zhang Xiu several times and perfected the whole plan. Each measure of the plan was carefully and tightly.


    A large-scale plan is completely formed.


    After the details were finalized, Zhang Xiu said: "this time, we will try to win the baimaqiang. If you don''t kill baimaqiang, you swear not to be a human being. "


    For baimaqiang, Zhang Xiu has a strong desire to kill.


    Sima Yi said: "the Lord''s plan is bound to succeed."


    Zhang Xiu immediately sent someone to call Huang Zhong, in front of Huang Zhong, said the next plan. After hearing this, Huang Zhong thought it was feasible, so he left to carry out the order.


    Eight miles northeast of the camp, a granary sprang up.


    Granary covers a vast area.


    After the completion of the granary, Huang Zhong issued an order, and the subsequent grain and money were transported in batch by batch. In less than five days, there were no less than 300000 stones of grain, and countless wealth and armor.All kinds of equipment are hidden in it.


    The news spread quickly.


    The hiding place of baimaqiang is called Minshan, which is a mountain range near Yizhou.


    Deep in the mountains, a slightly flat place.


    It''s a big village.


    It is the location of the king''s tent of baimaqiang.


    Han Sui and Ma Chao were also there. After they withdrew from Hanyang County, they withdrew in a hurry and gathered some troops along the way. Even after they left Hanyang County, along the way, they plundered some grain and replenished themselves.


    After arriving at Wudu County, they went into the mountain.


    When he entered the mountain, Han Sui had ten thousand infantry, two thousand cavalry and some grain.


    This is all the power of Han Sui.


    Under Ma Chao''s command, there were 3000 cavalry, 5000 infantry and a certain amount of grain.


    No matter Han Sui or Ma Chao, they all have a certain strength, but with their 10000 or 20000 troops, it''s nothing in front of Zhang Xiu.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to defeat Han Sui and Ma Chao, it''s like crushing an ant. Therefore, they have to rely on the power of Baima Qiang to fight back against Zhang Xiu. However, when Han Sui entered the mountain, he did not persuade the head of baimaqiang to send troops for some time.


    The interests of both sides have not been really agreed.


    In a camp.


    Han Sui and Ma Chao sat opposite each other.


    Ma Chao''s handsome face showed a trace of impatience and said: "father-in-law, under the present situation, we have never persuaded the Qiang king of Baima Qiang. He wants to be the king of Qiang in Liangzhou and unify all the Qiang people in Liangzhou. Why don''t you agree to him? "


    After a pause, Ma Chao continued: "although the king of Qiang once said that he had defeated Zhang Xiu and wanted to take your son as a hostage to ensure that he would become the king of Qiang in Liangzhou, what''s the point? As long as we carry out the agreement, there is nothing we can''t do. "


    Han then snorted and said in a deep voice, "if the king of Qiang unifies the Qiang people in Liangzhou, his strength will be strong and almost invincible. If such conditions are agreed, the consequences will be unimaginable. It''s not a matter of hostages or hostages. It''s a matter of no hostages. "


    Ma Chao said: "your consideration is too long-term. Even, we only need to defeat Zhang Xiu with the help of baimaqiang. As long as Zhang Xiu withdraws, we''ll go back on it. "


    "I haven''t considered the details yet," Han Sui said


    Ma Chao said in a deep voice: "do you want revenge or not. Today, Zhang Xiu has been killed in Qiangdao county. He is just outside the mountain. Do you want to sit back and ignore him? "


    Han Sui said coldly, "Meng Qi, I want revenge more than anyone else."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, outside the battalion commander, there were soldiers shouting. After that, the soldiers entered and reported: "general, the king of Qiang, please go to the meeting with General Ma."


    "I see!"


    Han then answered, and the soldiers backed down.


    Han Sui stood up, looked at Ma Chao and said, "let''s go!"


    Ma Chao also stood up and went out of the camp with Han Sui to the king''s tent of Baima Qiang.

 Chapter 584

    Soon, Ma Chao and Han Sui joined hands to enter Wang''s account.


    Right above the tent, there was a middle-aged man with a big figure and dressed in animal skin. He was in his early thirties, with slender arms and eyes like a hungry wolf, shining with a faint light, as if to choose someone to eat.


    This is cuobuzhe, the king of Qiang in baimaqiang.


    When cuobuzhe was 18 years old, he took charge of baimaqiang. At that time, there were many people in baimaqiang tribe who opposed cuobuzhe and thought that cuobuzhe was not competent.


    However, cuobuzhe was ruthless. He invited all the people who opposed him to the king''s tent, ordered the ambush swordsmen to attack, directly slaughtered the people who opposed him, and unified the whole baimaqiang.


    Under the iron hand of cuobuzhe, the baimaqiang people were unified unprecedentedly. In particular, the strategy pursued by cuobuzhe is to go down the mountain and plunder, sweep away all parties, Kidnap Women and children, rob food and livestock, so as to develop strength.


    In the past 20 years, Huang Jin made trouble first, and then Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, which was the most turbulent time for the whole Han Dynasty.


    The central plains were in chaos and there were constant struggles.


    The princes attacked each other.


    Therefore, no one came to attack him, even though he kept plundering and killing everywhere. As a result, the strength of Baima Qiang under the command of cuobuzhe has been growing, almost the strongest Qiang tribe in Wudu County.


    In Wudu County, baimaqiang is the most important.


    As for Liangzhou, baimaqiang is a large tribe.


    His eyes fell on Han Sui and Ma Chao, and he said in a deep voice, "it''s a very important matter to invite them to the king''s tent. Ben Wang just got the news that Zhang Xiu built a granary in Qiangdao county to store large quantities of grain. According to preliminary estimates, there are at least two or three hundred thousand tons of grain, in addition to countless money, as well as a number of weapons and horses. "


    Han Sui said, "the meaning of the Qiang king is to attack the granary?"


    "Yes


    He answered directly.


    He made no secret of his greedy desire and said: "every time we go down the mountain to plunder, we will deduct every little bit. The grain is too little. There are so many grains in Qiangdao County, this is our opportunity. "


    Han Sui frowned and said, "what if this is Zhang Xiu''s ambush? Zhang Xiu has arranged so much grain in Qiangdao county that it is very likely that she is waiting for us to plunder. "


    "I''ll go, too!"


    In the eyes of tsobuzhe, there is a sharp edge.


    For tsobuzhe, there is no so-called ambush, no so-called true or false. As long as the grain in the granary is real, we can attack it and seize the grain in the granary.


    In Han Sui''s heart, he really hopes to weaken Zhang Xiu''s forces, or even defeat Zhang Xiu, with the help of the power of Baima Qiang, so that he can regain the hope of capturing Liangzhou.


    But now we''re sending troops. We''re probably in ambush.


    Once in the ambush, everything will stop, it is difficult to revenge.


    Han Sui shook his head and said again, "King Qiang, Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. He could defeat Cao Cao, kill Xiongnu and retire Yuan Shao. Such a man was extremely fierce. According to my suggestion, we will not send troops for the time being. Why does Zhang Xiu arrange the granary in such a big way that it is clear that she is waiting for you to go down the mountain and plunder, so as to calculate your income. "


    Cuobuzhe said coldly: "when, my son of baimaqiang is afraid of calculation. In addition, if baimaqiang is in danger, he can withdraw immediately. I''ve sent someone to inquire about it. The granary is not far from the border of Minshan where we hide. As long as we evacuate, we can quickly return to Minshan. When we get to Minshan, no matter how powerful Zhang Xiu''s army is, it won''t help. "


    Han Sui said, "that''s what I said, but it was obviously calculated."


    Cuobuzhe said: "my son of baimaqiang has never been in a battle. He was not captured by a strong force. Every time, it''s to attack the city and win. Even this time, it''s no exception. Since Zhang Xiu has set up the granary, we will attack it by force. "


    "Alas..."


    Han Sui sighed: "King Qiang, you are acting rashly."


    "Shut up


    Cuobuzhe looked cold and said: "Han Sui, you are famous in Liangzhou, and your strength is not weak. Now, it is so weak that I despise it. "


    After a pause, cuobuzhe said: "if it''s unnecessary, don''t say it. I''ve decided to attack Zhang Xiu''s granary. Even if Zhang Xiu arranges an ambush, I will go. My sons of baimaqiang are good at biting hard bones. This time, we will win


    Han Sui said: "Zhang Xiu is not a hard bone, but a hard stone. If you take a bite, you will break your teeth


    He was angry.


    Han Sui refused again and again.


    He didn''t like it very much.


    Han Sui wanted to take advantage of tsobuzhe, but as the king of Qiang, tsobuzhe was not a fuel-efficient lamp. He was not a schemer. He had his own consideration and calculation.


    Cuobuzhe said directly: "Han Sui, I didn''t invite you here to discuss with you. I want you to come here to inform you and Ma Chao. Next, you and Ma Chao will lead a large army to attack Zhang Xiu''s granary with me. Especially in this war, you two, as pioneers, lead the advanced attack. ""Ah


    Han Sui and Ma Chao speak together.


    They didn''t expect that tsobuzhe would give such a reply.


    No wonder cuobuzhe wants to attack!


    It is clearly intentional, that is, let them go up to die, in order to attract Zhang Xiu''s forces.


    Han then frowned and said, "King Qiang, I''m afraid it''s not right."


    Cuobuzhe leaned forward slightly, and his big body moved forward, which gave people a great sense of oppression. He asked, "what''s wrong?"


    Han Sui said: "Zhang Xiu''s granary is not easy to attack. Once we go to attack, we are likely to be ambushed. Under such circumstances, my soldiers will die if they go there. "


    "To die is to die!"


    With an indifferent look on his face, cuobuzhe said, "when you enter the mountain, you don''t even have any food. Your soldiers are in a mess. During my time in baimaqiang, I give you food, drink and food. Now, in the face of war, shouldn''t you rush ahead? "


    Han Sui and Ma Chao frowned, both of them dignified.


    Tso Buzhe''s eyes fell on Ma Chao again and said, "you Ma Chao are very brave in martial arts. You are very powerful. Just camp, if you dare to do it, you will be killed immediately. Have you thought about it? "


    Han Sui''s face changed again and again.


    His original intention was to calculate tsobuche. I didn''t expect to be eaten to death by tsobuzhe. Because more than ten thousand elite soldiers under his command depend on tsobuzhe for food.


    So is Ma Chao.


    He clenched his fist, because his soldiers and cavalry were also supported by tsobuzhe. If there was no food for tsobuzhe, the soldiers in the army would immediately mutiny.


    Neither had a choice.


    Han Sui took a deep breath and said, "King Qiang, it''s not impossible for us to send troops as vanguards. But I have a small condition. "


    "But it doesn''t hurt to say so," said tsobuzhe


    Han Sui said: "take the lead in sending a small group of Baima Qiang sentry to attack the northwest border of Qiangdao County, pretending to attack the border villages of Qiangdao county to attract Zhang Xiu''s attention. Then we went down the mountain to attack Zhang Xiu''s granary. "


    "Yes!"


    He did not refuse.


    On the whole, Han Sui''s suggestion is quite good.


    As soon as the big sleeve of cuobuzhe brushed, he said, "go down. Tomorrow morning, we will go out of the mountain and go straight to Zhang Xiu''s granary."


    Ma Chao and Han Sui stood up to leave and went back to their camp.

 Chapter 585

    Han Sui and Ma Chao are seated again.


    Ma Chao frowned and said, "father-in-law, it''s clear that TSO Buzhe wants us to die to attract the main force of Zhang Xiu. What should we do now? "


    Han Sui''s eyes narrowed.


    He calculated quickly.


    He was very clear about the next war. Once he sent troops, he could not help being driven. Although he has a considerable number of troops under his command, in fact, in the current situation, even cuobuzhe can destroy Han Sui. After all, he is not strong enough.


    Suddenly, Han Sui''s eyes brightened.


    Suddenly he had a plan.


    Han Sui looks at Ma Chao in front of him. He talks to him, but he opens his mouth and swallows it back.


    Ma Chao''s life has nothing to do with him.


    What''s more, Ma Chao is not easy to die. This boy is also a thief.


    Han Sui sighed and said, "what can I do now? Alas, I can only try my best to figure out how to preserve my own strength when I attack the granary tomorrow. "


    "Alas..."


    Ma Chao heard the speech and sighed.


    Han Sui waved his hand and said, "Meng Qi, go down and prepare for the first world war tomorrow."


    "Goodbye!"


    Ma Chao got up and arched his hand, no longer staying.


    After he left Han Sui''s camp and returned to his camp, he immediately called pound and told him how he was going down the mountain to fight. Then he said, "Ling Ming, TSO Buzhe forced me and Han Sui to follow him to attack the granary tomorrow."


    "In the current situation, attacking Zhang Xiu''s granary is absolutely suicidal."


    "In today''s situation, I asked Han Sui to find a way, but he said that he had no way but to do his best on the battlefield. In my opinion, Han Sui certainly did not tell the truth. He has his own consideration and plot. "


    Ma Chao gave his opinion.


    Pound said: "Han Sui is extremely treacherous and always acts treacherously. Now, in order to protect himself, Han Sui will certainly have some reservations. It''s normal not to tell the truth. "


    Ma Chao said, "what shall we do?"


    Pound said: "there is no way, we can only go to war, otherwise, the king of Qiang will attack us. Of course, if you don''t go, there are ways. "


    Ma Chao came to interest immediately, way: "what method?"


    From the bottom of his heart, he didn''t want to fight.


    After all, to attack Zhang Xiu''s granary is like looking for death.


    Pound said with a smile: "the LORD takes laxatives, and must take a lot of them, so that the body diarrhea to the point of dehydration. You can''t even ride a horse and walk? Not to mention fighting? Under such a premise, even if the king of Qiang had any opinions, there was no way. Even if the king of Qiang knew that the LORD had deliberately evaded, he could not be punished. "


    Ma Chao frowned and said, "no, how can I take laxatives to avoid war. If it''s going to get out, what''s the face of Ma Chao? It''s all right. If you send troops, you''ll send troops. I don''t believe it. Zhang Xiu can really kill me. "


    "Here it is


    Pound said nothing more.


    After he left the camp, he began to prepare for the war.


    Time flies, the time of the day passes, the morning of the day.


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of the horn suddenly rang through the mountains.


    Countless baimaqiang soldiers quickly gathered, and the heads of baimaqiang tribes have also come from Minshan with their soldiers. Yesterday, tsobuzhe arranged a messenger to inform the heads of baimaqiang tribes.


    Early in the morning, the army gathered.


    There are 60000 or 70000 people gathered around the Wangzhang.


    Almost all young.


    Almost all the young people of baimaqiang have gathered here. Every time, baimaqiang went out, they went all out, leaving only the old and weak women and children at home, and the rest of them to fight.


    Because only by participating in fighting can we get money, meat and women. Otherwise, we can only get some unimportant scraps.


    Therefore, Baima Qiang people are martial.


    All of them are so fierce.


    At the gathering of nearly 70000 Qiang people in Baima, all the cavalry and infantry under Ma Chao arrived.


    Ma Chao''s troops are not too many.


    Compared with the power of baimaqiang, it is really insignificant. However, Ma Chao is extremely powerful and brave, which is what the king of Baima Qiang needed to help.


    Ma Chao arrived, but Han Sui did not. Even Han Sui''s soldiers did not arrive.


    "What''s the matter, Han Sui?"


    When tsobuzhe saw this scene, his face was cold and gloomy. He was not good at it. Yesterday, he informed Han Sui, but to this day, Han Sui has not come, which makes him dissatisfied.


    Ma Chao is also confused.


    Sure enough, Han Sui, an old ruffian, is absolutely playing tricks.


    Cuobuzhe looked at Ma Chao and asked, "Ma Chao, where''s Han Sui?""I don''t know!"


    Ma Chao shakes his head and answers that he and Han Sui are not affiliated. How can he know Han Sui''s behavior?


    "Somebody


    He said.


    A soldier came forward and said, "go to inform Han Sui and let him come to see me."


    "Yes


    The soldiers immediately rushed to Han Sui''s camp.


    Zouzhe waited with a cold face.


    Soon, Han Sui came, but Han Sui didn''t come. He was lying on a stretcher and was carried by soldiers. Lying on the stretcher, Han Sui''s face was very pale, he was short of breath, and even his eyes were sunken.


    Pale complexion, very serious.


    When cuobuzhe saw Han Sui''s appearance, his first reaction was that Han Sui was playing tricks. He asked in a deep voice, "what''s the matter?"


    Han then replied feebly: "King Qiang, yesterday afternoon I called the generals of the army to inform them of the dispatch. Then, I had dinner and drink wine with all the people, but I didn''t expect that diarrhea came here. So are my generals and soldiers. It must be something wrong with yesterday''s food that makes it so miserable. "


    Ma Chao was embarrassed when he heard that. He looked at pound beside him and was very embarrassed.


    Pound suggested diarrhea.


    Go to war with evasion!


    Unexpectedly, Ma Chao refused, but Han Sui did not turn back.


    Cuobuzhe didn''t believe hansui''s words. He thought hansui did it on purpose. He came to hansui and pulled him up. At this time, Han Sui had a faint smell on his body. Even as soon as he was pulled up and standing, he fell to the ground with a soft leg and a bang.


    "Poof!"


    A loud fart came out.


    Immediately after that, a smell of stench filled Han Sui''s crotch.


    Cuobuzhe frowned and saw that Han Sui really had diarrhea. He was helpless. Han Sui and all the generals under his command are like this. It must be impossible for Han Sui to send troops again.


    "Let''s go!"


    In his heart, he was helpless and gave the order to send troops.


    With this order issued, the army left the king''s tent, ready to go out of the mountain.


    Ma Chao looks at Han Sui lying on the ground. At this time, Han Sui''s eyes are also cast. Ma Chao gives a thumbs up and praises him: "my father-in-law is worthy of being my father-in-law. He is really resourceful and resourceful


    Han Sui was expressionless and silent.


    In order not to send troops, he went all out, it can be said that he lost face.


    But it''s worth it.


    According to Han Sui''s calculation, even though cuobuzhe led 70000 elite soldiers out of the mountain, after he left the mountain, cuobuzhe was just a savage man and must be easily cleaned up by Zhang Xiu.


    So Han did not send troops.


    Han Sui was carried by soldiers, returned to the camp, quickly washed, and then arranged for people to take medicine.


    At this moment, Han Sui was happy.


    It''s a shame, but it''s worth it in front of your life.

 Chapter 586

    After Zhang Xiu''s granary was properly arranged, everything was waiting for news.


    To deal with the baimaqiang, we should not be too hasty.


    Everything should be pushed forward slowly.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu has deployed many generals and soldiers in place. Even Zhang Xiulian''s own army account has been moved to the granary.


    There are only a few soldiers in the barracks of Qiangdao county.


    All forces, all around the granary.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu is looking through some materials. In recent days, she has not heard that baimaqiang attacked the village.


    It''s been peaceful recently.


    But it is such peace that Zhang Xiu does not dare to take it lightly.


    This is likely to be the precursor of the coming storm.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, Wang Yue''s voice came from outside the tent. When the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, Wang Yue rushed in and reported: "Lord, just received the message from the Sentinels lurking at the border of Minshan, the Qiang people have gone down the mountain."


    "The dense white maqiang people, coming from the mountains, are coming to our granary. The sentry only found Ma Chao leading the troops, but did not see Han Sui going down the mountain. "


    "This time, the number of baimaqiang people going down the mountain is no less than 60000. They are vast and numerous."


    After a pause, Wang Yue said: "in addition, there are also small groups of Qiang people attacking the border of Qiangdao county."


    "Here we are at last!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a sharp look.


    When he was in the army, he was waiting for the army of baimaqiang to come out. Now he is waiting.


    Zhang Xiu looked forward to it and said, "there is no need to take care of the small group of baimaqiang on the border for the time being. We only need to defeat the main force of baimaqiang this time. "


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, these Qiang people are mighty and fierce. I''m afraid they are not easy to resist. In particular, many troops have been sent out. Can they resist it? "


    "Enough to resist, no harm!"


    Zhang Xiu was very confident and said, "what''s more, we still have 20000 excellent soldiers who are burning the Qiang people. Under such circumstances, it would be a failure if we could not resist it. "


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said, "send an order to Huang Zhong to ambush baimaqiang when they retreat. Previously, we didn''t know the location of baimaqiang''s downhill. Now we know it. If we lay an ambush, we can cut off their retreat. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the tent, with an expectant look on her face. He got up, put on his armor, hung his Longquan sword on his waist, and put on his armor. His face was full of fighting spirit.


    Carrying the overlord''s gun, Zhang Xiu left the camp and went to the army to gather all the Qiang people.


    In shaodang Qiang, aguli is the main one.


    After all, he is the son of King Qiang and the eldest brother-in-law of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the Qiang soldiers, with a sharp look on her face. She threw a voice on the ground and said, "the sons of shaodang Qiang, just now, I have got the news that Baima Qiang is out of the mountain."


    WOW!!


    Countless Qiang soldiers, talk about it.


    In everyone''s eyes, there was a more fierce intention to kill. They all wanted to kill baimaqiang. Shaodang Qiang and Baima Qiang are opposite to each other.


    Baima Qiang had sent troops to Jincheng County several times, intending to destroy shaodang Qiang and annex the people of shaodang Qiang. But every time, it was defeated by Midan. In fact, even if they burn dangqiang, they want to destroy Baima Qiang and expand their power.


    It''s just that there is not a big gap between the two sides.


    Under such circumstances, both sides are like feuds.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the white horse Qiang plundered and slaughtered the people wantonly. Leaving baimaqiang is leaving cancer. Today''s World War I is not only to defeat baimaqiang, but also to wipe out baimaqiang thoroughly. How dare you fight with all your strength? "


    "Fight to the death!"


    In aguli''s eyes, there was a strong sense of war and a loud cry.


    He had seen the ferocity of baimaqiang since he was a child, and he wanted to kill baimaqiang in his heart.


    "Fight to the death!"


    The rest of the Qiang soldiers screamed.


    The heads of all tribes are shouting.


    They followed Zhang Xiu in order to defeat baimaqiang and win the war. Now that baimaqiang is here, we should fight with all our strength.


    "Fight to the death!"


    "Fight to the death!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, shouts soared into the sky.


    All the soldiers of shaodang Qiang have been mobilized.


    Zhang Xiu let the soldiers shout, let the soldiers shout, after a long time, the cry stopped, Zhang Xiu praised: "it is worthy of being a warrior burning when Qiang, I look forward to this battle, you can shine."


    When Shao is a Qiang soldier, he is always playing hard.


    We need to fight hard.


    Not only because they and baimaqiang are mortal enemies, but also because during their time in the army, their food and salaries were in accordance with Zhang Xiu''s military rules. They ate well and got money. Everyone was very happy and was more willing to repay Zhang Xiu.Zhang Xiu no longer lingered, leaving the soldiers to wait.


    He came to the army again and saw Zhang Ya and Chen Dao, giving orders to them to prepare for the first World War.


    This is a crucial battle and we have to win.


    As time went by, it was close to noon. At this time, the sun was in the middle of the sky. Although it was hot, the soldiers were not affected. Outside the granary camp, suddenly there was a long horn.


    The sound of the horn, one after another.


    The sound of the bugle is exciting.


    The black white horse Qiang soldiers, as well as the soldiers under Ma Chao''s command, have rushed forward quickly, close to Zhang Xiu''s barracks. As the Qiang king of Baima Qiang, cuobuzhe did not have the habit of shouting in front of the army when he attacked any place.


    "Kill


    "Break the granary and kill me."


    "Food and money are ahead. If you have the ability and the courage, just give it to me. "


    "Kill


    He kept on shouting.


    Under the loud command of cuobuzhe, the soldiers of baimaqiang are full of fighting spirit. One by one, their eyes were shining and greedy, because they saw a lot of money and food.


    It''s all in the camp.


    This is an opportunity!


    Ma Chao led the soldiers to rush forward, but he didn''t rush in front, deliberately ordered the soldiers under his command to slow down, so as to reduce casualties. Otherwise, his tiny troops will not last long.


    The black and white Qiang soldiers rushed forward. The black and white attack was like a black cloud pressing the city, giving people a great sense of oppression. The distance from the granary camp is getting closer and closer, and soon it has been within 200 steps.


    Sitting in the barracks, seeing the distance getting closer, Zhang Xiu ordered: "Archer, let go!"


    Archers, move fast.


    One by one, the archers put up their bows and arrows, and four thousand archers put their arrows on the fence of the camp. Four thousand bows and arrows passed through the air, blocking the sky and the sun, and even cutting off the sunlight in the air for a short time.


    "Whew! Whew


    The dense bows and arrows, like rain, had fallen in an instant.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    Countless bows and arrows were shot into the body of the Qiang soldiers. This is true of kerao, because the soldiers of baimaqiang are scattered. Although many of them have been shot, in fact, not many of them have been shot.


    Arrow like rain, continue to harvest the lives of baimaqiang soldiers, but the distance is constantly narrowing.


    In fact, the farther the distance is, the more divergent the Baima Qiang soldiers will be. It''s like a folding fan, with a broad edge and a narrow handle.


    As the baimaqiang soldiers get closer to the camp, the number of them becomes more and more dense.


    "Archer, prepare!"


    Zhang Xiu saw the white horse Qiang soldiers approaching and gave the order again.


    A crossbow machine is ready, all across the fence, aiming at the approaching baimaqiang soldiers. When the order of shooting comes out, the machine frame of a crossbow machine is buckled, and the crossbow is fired directly.


    "Whew! Whew


    The crossbows and arrows were as fast as lightning. Hundreds of them broke through the air and reached the Qiang soldiers in a twinkling of an eye.


    The speed of the crossbow is fierce and domineering. It easily penetrates the body of the Qiang soldiers in Baima. Then it goes on and penetrates the body of several Qiang soldiers in succession. It stops and has no strength to rush forward.


    The bodies of baimaqiang fell to the ground.


    Under the cross firing of crossbows and bows, the soldiers of baimaqiang were killed and injured seriously.


    Rao did not stop the attack of the Baima Qiang soldiers. These white horse Qiang soldiers, as if they were not afraid of death, rushed forward without death. They were very fierce and terrible.

 Chapter 587

    "Kill


    "Kill me in!"


    Cuobuzhe roared and roared loudly. He led the soldiers to sprint, and the soldiers under his command were killed and injured a lot. Of course, this kind of loss is still within the scope of tsobuzhe''s tolerance, not too big.


    The problem is that he led the soldiers of baimaqiang to fight. He was invincible. There was never such a great loss. Most of the time, he carried his soldiers down the mountain, and no one could stop him.


    Wherever you go, you can escape.


    No one dares to stay and fight him.


    This battle was different. When his soldiers were killed, Zhang Xiu dared to organize the soldiers to resist, causing such huge casualties to his soldiers, which was unbearable to cuobuzhe. One by one, the white horse Qiang soldiers launched an offensive and gradually approached the gate of the camp.


    It''s getting closer.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    Forty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides has been reduced to within 40 steps, the role of bow and arrow has begun to weaken. Because the distance is too close, on the contrary, it is difficult for the bow and arrow to spread.


    At this moment, the soldiers of Baima Qiang became more excited. The soldiers of baimaqiang have been living in the mountains and in the harsh environment. They fight against heaven and earth one by one. They are extremely fierce and are not afraid of death.


    In their eyes, there is only greed.


    We should break through Zhang Xiu''s camp and seize all the food and money in it.


    "Kill


    The roar came from countless white horse Qiang soldiers.


    One by one, they were very enthusiastic.


    They see a chance to get into the camp.


    Zhang Xiu saw the white horse Qiang soldiers approaching, with a sharp look on their face, and ordered: "burn dangqiang, attack!"


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The battle drums, from the barracks.


    The drums are loud and have different rhythms. With the rhythm of the war drum, aguli led more than 20000 shaodang Qiang elite soldiers to fight out.


    Shaodang Qiang and Baima Qiang are enemies. When they meet, they will blush.


    Shaodang Qiang soldiers rushed out of the gate of the camp and killed directly.


    Soon, the two sides met.


    The soldiers of shaodang Qiang are the real elite and the most elite team of shaodang Qiang. All the children who burn to be Qiang people dare to fight and kill and have strong fighting capacity. They quickly entered baimaqiang and started fighting.


    It''s a close fight.


    At this time, bows and crossbows continued. Because only bows and arrows can kill baimaqiang on a large scale. In the past, the baimaqiang people kept rushing forward and dispersing greatly, and the shooting was easy to fail. However, after the baimaqiang soldiers in the front met the obstruction, the baimaqiang soldiers in the rear gathered more and more, and the crowd became more and more dense.


    That''s why bows and arrows show off.


    Zhang Xiu watched the killing of shaodangqiang and baimaqiang, but did not immediately send troops to help them.


    What we need to do now is to weaken each other.


    As time goes by, the 20000 elite soldiers of shaodang Qiang were killed countless times, but there were so many white horse Qiang people gathered that the resistance of shaodang Qiang was weakened and gradually became irresistible.


    "Newspaper!"


    A Qiang soldier who burned the local Qiang came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Taiwei Zhang, Mr. aguli said that it''s hard to stop. There are too many Baima Qiang people and their offensive is too strong. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know."


    After the shaodang Qiang soldiers left, Zhang Xiu ordered: "beat the drum and inform Chen Dao to attack."


    "Dong! Dong


    There''s another drum fight.


    The frequency of the drums in this battle is as fast as a storm. This kind of drum sound is even more exciting.


    "Da! "Da!"


    All of a sudden, the ground began to shake up, dense cavalry out. One horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, shaking the ground outside the barracks.


    This cavalry was killed from the left side outside the camp.


    The leader is Chen Dao.


    After Chen went out on the left side of the camp, another cavalry came out on the right side of the camp.


    The two cavalry came out and went straight to the left and right wings of baimaqiang.


    After the cavalry is killed, the crossbows and bows projected from the camp will no longer be fired. This is because it is easy to hurt others and oneself, and Chen Dao''s cavalry by mistake.


    Ten thousand cavalry of Langya battalion, each with five thousand on the left and right wings, were put into the battlefield.


    At that time, Chen Dao''s cavalry had entered the battlefield and cut into the left and right wings. The cavalry of Langya camp slashed and killed the soldiers of baimaqiang.


    Ma Chao''s position, impressively in the left wing, he led the troops to resist the attack of Langya camp.


    Ma Chao saw the way of the battle. Zhang Xiu first resisted Baima Qiang with shaodang Qiang, and then killed them with cavalry. Once the camp of baimaqiang is in chaos, baimaqiang is likely to lose the battle.Fortunately, there are a large number of baimaqiang people.


    In particular, under the leadership of cuobuzhe, baimaqiang charged bravely and bravely.


    Tsobuzhe found the cavalry on the left and right wings, with an expression of confidence and ferocity. Even if there were cavalry to kill, cuobuzhe was not afraid, and said: "sons, as long as you fight in the camp, the cavalry will lose its function. Kill, kill in!"


    Zouze did not retreat!


    He thought that there was enough chance to win. As long as he entered the camp, the cavalry would not play a role. The baimaqiang soldiers under his command will be even more powerful. There are countless food and money to attract, will attract countless soldiers.


    "Kill


    Zouze gave a loud order.


    The soldiers of linma were not used to withdrawing. Food and money, in particular, are here. As long as they enter the camp and defeat Zhang Xiu''s garrison, then the battle will be won.


    "Kill


    "Kill all the Qiang people!"


    "Kill all the dogs!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the soldiers who confessed themselves to maqiang kept shouting. Even if countless baimaqiang soldiers were killed by cavalry from both sides, and even if the rear was in a mess, the soldiers of baimaqiang continued to march forward.


    Under the attack of a large number of Baima Qiang soldiers, the 20000 elite soldiers who burned Dang Qiang have been defeated. After a while, I arrived at the gate of the camp and even retreated into the camp.


    This situation excited countless baimaqiang people.


    They thought they were going to win.


    At this time, all of a sudden, Zhang Xiu said: "Zhang jaw, mobilize all the conventional army, cover up. You and Gao Lan, at the same time, lead the troops to defeat the attack of baimaqiang. "


    "Here it is


    At the same time, we should lower the jaw.


    Zhang ordered that soon, he and Gao Lan led a conventional army to quickly enter the battlefield.


    Zhang''s regular army, with a total of more than 20000 people, is extremely elite. Especially under the leadership of Zhang Yan, the combat effectiveness of more than 20000 elite soldiers has already surpassed that of the past.


    As soon as more than 20000 conventional troops entered the battlefield, the situation of burning dangqiang was reversed.


    As soon as shaodang Qiang saw the reinforcements coming, they fought one by one. The soldiers of shaodang Qiang are all elite. This time, when the chieftains of the Qiang tribes led the soldiers, they didn''t want to lag behind. They wanted to make contributions and win the respect of Zhang Xiu.


    The combination of the two armies has greatly increased their combat effectiveness.


    In this scene, tsobuzhe''s eyes widened and his face showed an incredible look.


    What''s going on?


    Zhang Xiu has sent so many soldiers that there are ambushes in the barracks. If we had faced the army of shaodang Qiang alone before, cuobuzhe was quite sure to enter, but now it is difficult.


    "Is it that Zhang Xiu''s troops are not stationed in other places, but are all here?"


    Zouzhe frowned.


    In cuobuzhe''s opinion, after entering Wudu County, Zhang Xiu entered Qiangdao County, especially when other people attacked and harassed her, so Zhang Xiu must be stationed in the county. Even if there were troops in the granary, there would not be too many.


    Now, however, he is in a dilemma.

 Chapter 588

    Do you want to retreat?


    In the heart of tsobuzhe, there was such an idea.


    But as soon as the idea rose, it was killed by tsobuzhe. He has mobilized 60000 or 70000 elite of Baima Qiang, and has exhausted all the strength of Baima Qiang.


    Let him retreat, he is not reconciled.


    Cuobuzhe has been in charge of baimaqiang for many years. As the king of Qiang, he has never been so cowardly.


    He was unwilling to fail.


    This battle, do not break Zhang Xiu''s defense, do not enter Zhang Xiu''s camp, he will never give up. What''s more, when he went back empty handed, he couldn''t explain to the heads of baimaqiang tribes.


    Anyway, he has to win.


    This war must be fought to the end.


    "Kill! Kill me


    Cuobuzhe gave a loud order. With the order of cuobuzhe, all the baimaqiang soldiers under his command rushed forward. As a matter of fact, it is not only cuobuzhe who is unwilling to withdraw, but also the rest of the baimaqiang soldiers who are unwilling to withdraw.


    They have always been invincible, and they will never give up until they get food out of the mountain. How do you face your family when you retreat and return to the mountains? How to face the starving wife and children?


    So the Qiang soldiers of Baima, hearing the order of cuobuzhe, all went crazy and kept killing. But at this time, Zhang Xiu''s army''s offensive has become more fierce.


    No matter Gao Lan or Zhang Yan, they are all fierce generals.


    The two men led the army to rush to kill and kill the soldiers of baimaqiang. They were even more invincible. Even if the soldiers of Baima Qiang are fierce, they can''t be defeated.


    Originally, the soldiers of the Baima Qiang people had been fighting outside the camp on their own. But at this time, the soldiers of baimaqiang were driven out of the camp and retreated to the gate of the camp.


    Zhang Xiu takes command in the camp. He comes to the fence in the camp and carefully observes the situation outside.


    He knew Ma Chao was coming.


    But I''ve been wandering, and I haven''t seen Ma Chao lead the soldiers to kill.


    When Zhang Xiu looked around, he suddenly saw a Chinese cavalry standing behind the Qiang soldiers, resisting the attack of Langya camp cavalry.


    In the crowd, there was a white horse and white robe.


    It''s Ma Chao.


    Ma Chao is very easy to identify, and his cavalry are all white horses, which is easier to identify.


    After Zhang Xiu found the general location of Ma Chao, she no longer looked at where Ma Chao was. Because the battlefield is changing rapidly, he can''t be sure where Ma Chao''s next step is.


    But the monk can''t run to the temple.


    As long as we judge the position of Ma Chao''s cavalry, we can judge the general area of Ma Chao.


    Zhang Xiu came down from the fence, called to Yang Xiu, and said, "dezu, you come to command. Next, I will lead the soldiers to meet Ma Chao. Previously, the royal guards were sent to contact Ma Chao. But Ma Chao was hiding in the mountains and couldn''t get in touch. Now, I tell Ma Chao the news that he has captured his wife and children alive. "


    "Here it is


    Yang Xiu answered directly.


    Today''s war situation is almost certain, so Yang Xiu doesn''t worry about making mistakes in blind command.


    Zhang Xiu leads her to chase the wind, takes the overlord gun in hand, turns over, mounts the horse and rushes out. At the moment of Zhang Xiu''s galloping out, the soldiers around him also followed closely to protect Zhang Xiu''s safety.


    Zhang Xiu''s speed is extremely fast, one person one ride, in the twinkling of an eye, like a lightning bolt into the crowd.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is lifted.


    The sharp point of the gun, shaking in the air, easily penetrated into the body of a Qiang soldier the next moment.


    "Poof!"


    There was a spatter of blood in the tent, and the Qiang soldiers screamed, and there was no breath.


    Zhang Xiu draws back her gun and rushes forward again.


    Where you pass, you will be overwhelmed.


    For a moment, the white horse Qiang soldiers in front of Zhang Xiu died under Zhang Xiu''s gun. The overlord gun in his hand is either swung and smashed, or stabbed out like lightning. Whenever the big gun passes by, it will take away lives.


    There is blood constantly splashing on Zhang Xiu''s body, which makes Zhang Xiu''s body stained with blood, just like blood man. It is this kind of Zhang Xiu that makes people feel numb.


    All the way through, Zhang Xiu is like a sharp cone, which no one can resist.


    Soon, he had arrived at the cavalry area led by Ma Chao. This is where Ma Chao is.


    Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao are rivals. In front of Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao is not as good as Zhang Xiu. However, with Zhang Xiu''s wanton slaughter of his cavalry, Ma Chao could not sit back and ignore it.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was slaughtered wantonly, Ma Chao drove his horse to kill him. Not long after he arrived in front of Zhang Xiu, the golden spear of tiger head Zhan shook in the air, then quickly stabbed Zhang Xiu and roared: "Zhang Xiu, don''t be rampant!"


    "Oh, here comes the horse!"


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face, with banter, said with a smile: "how come today, you are the only one. Well, that''s what you are. You''re easy to count. This time, it was calculated by Han Sui. "


    "Zhang Xiu, stop talking nonsense!"


    Ma Chao''s golden spear is constantly wielding and attacking Zhang Xiu."Kill


    "Kill


    Ma Chao roared bitterly.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, he was ruined. He was so infamous that he broke with Ma Teng and his son.


    Because Zhang Xiu, he lost again and again, is no longer the invincible God of war in Liangzhou.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, he is homeless.


    All this is because of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu easily waved the overlord gun to resist Ma Chao''s indignant attack.


    When Zhang Xiu resisted Ma Chao''s attack, he said: "Ma Chao, I''ll give you a task. When baimaqiang is defeated, you retreat with baimaqiang, return to baimaqiang''s residence and kill Han Sui. Then, give me his head. "


    "No way!"


    Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, are you not awake, or are you out of your mind?"


    Zhang Xiu seemed very relaxed and continued: "because your wife, Han Xuan, is in my hands. If you don''t cooperate, I''m afraid Han Xuan''s life will be lost. "


    When Ma Chao heard this, he stopped.


    He knew that for a long time.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu defeated the army of him and Han Sui, Ma Chao and Han Sui directly withdrew from Longxian County, resulting in Han Xuan falling into Zhang Xiu''s hands. But now hear Zhang Xiu say, his heart immediately flustered up.


    Zhang Xiu did not take advantage of the attack, because today''s Ma Chao, there is no great threat to Zhang Xiu. If Han Sui also goes to war, Zhang Xiu will take advantage of Ma Chao, but if he takes Ma Chao now, there is no one to kill Han Sui.


    Ma Chao gritted his teeth and said, "I won''t kill Han Sui. He is Xuaner''s father."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but now, you are also a father. Han Xuan has your baby in her stomach. Do you want your unborn child to die


    Ma Chao''s face has changed greatly.


    He never thought that Han Xuan was pregnant. This should have been a very happy thing, but in this battlefield, Ma Chao was even more panicked when he heard about it.


    What to do?


    Do you really want to kill Han Sui?


    He and Zhang Xiu have hatred, but now, how can he revenge?


    Zhang Xiu continued: "how to do it is your own business. Besides, there are various ways to kill Han Sui. If you kill Han Sui, you can hide it. Ma Chao, I''ll give you some time, but if you can''t finish the task, you will see Han Xuan''s body on the upper floor of Qiangdao county. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu drove the horse to abandon Ma Chao and kill the rest of the white horse Qiang soldiers.


    Ma Chao was struck by lightning.


    The whole person is dull.

 Chapter 589

    Pound saw Ma chaoleng in the same place, and ran quickly. Pound had seen Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao fight before, but from the beginning to the end, they fought gently without any intention to attack and kill. Pound didn''t care.


    But now, Ma Chao was stunned. He saw that the situation was not right. He immediately asked, "Lord, what happened?"


    Ma Chao said: "Ling Ming, I''m a father."


    "Ah


    Pound exclaimed.


    For a moment, pound didn''t respond, and quickly said again: "how did you become a father? At the end of the meeting, I will see you and Zhang Xiu fighting. I will stop in a moment and Zhang Xiu will leave directly. What did Zhang Xiu say? "


    Ma Chao replied, "Zhang Xiu said that xuan''er is pregnant with my child."


    "Hiss!"


    Pound took a cool breath.


    It''s a tricky business.


    If Han Xuan becomes a prisoner, it''s OK to deal with it. Maybe Ma Chao will not care. But Han Xuan and Ma Chao have a deep relationship. Ma Chao dotes on Han Xuan, and Han Xuan is also devoted to Ma Chao.


    Han Xuan''s father, Ma Xuan, is very difficult to get pregnant.


    Ma Chao asked: "Zhang Xiu also said, let me kill Han Sui and go to see him with his head. Otherwise, he will kill xuan''er. Ling Ming, what do you think I should do? "


    "Alas..."


    Pound couldn''t help sighing.


    It''s really hard to handle.


    Pound was not a man of indecision. He said immediately, "Lord, we have no other way now. In this way, we have to kill Han Sui and submit to Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, the mother''s life is in danger. "


    Ma Chao looked a little lonely and said, "yes, it can only be done like this."


    Pound said, "in that case, we will withdraw immediately. Now the army of Baima Qiang, fighting against Zhang Xiu, is at a disadvantage, but there is no way to retreat. When we shout to retreat, baimaqiang''s army will run away from the enemy. The defeat of baimaqiang is also a gift for Zhang Xiu. "


    "Go away!"


    Ma Chao nodded in approval.


    "Zhang Xiu is fierce, withdraw!"


    Pound ordered, then turned the horse, quickly evacuated.


    After pound and machao withdrew quickly, their infantry and cavalry quickly left the battlefield and retreated along the same road. This retreat caused a riot among the baimaqiang soldiers.


    Although the original Baima Qiang soldiers were at a disadvantage, one by one they resisted and never defeated. Through Ma Chao''s retreat, many Baima Qiang soldiers retreated.


    "Go away!"


    Shouts, one after another.


    "Withdraw!"


    "Retreat!"


    "I can''t stop it. Zhang Xiu is fierce. Retreat!"


    Countless white horse Qiang soldiers, shouting, all retreat in a swarm.


    It''s like a plague spreading. Countless baimaqiang soldiers, panic retreat, in an instant, led to the rout of baimaqiang, simply can not stop.


    Tsobuzhe''s eyes widened, and his rough cheek had an incredible look. How could it be that the army under his command suddenly collapsed, and even he had no time to study the reason, so he had to retreat with the team.


    If we don''t retreat, we will die.


    With the large-scale retreat of cuobuzhe, Zhang Xiu''s army began to cover up quickly.


    Burning as a Qiang soldier is even more exciting. They defeated baimaqiang and won. For a short time, all the soldiers of the Qiang nationality were burning up and crying to cover up.


    The cavalry of Langya camp is the most suitable one to cover up.


    Ten thousand cavalry troops of Langya camp are attacking in a mighty way, and they are constantly launching attacks. Under the attack of cavalry, baimaqiang suffered heavy losses, and countless people died in the slaughter of Langya camp.


    "Don''t kill me, I surrender!"


    In the crowd, the baimaqiang soldiers who fell at the back surrendered.


    With the appearance of surrender soldiers, more and more baimaqiang soldiers surrender, but the vast majority of baimaqiang soldiers continue to retreat. Even if they were slaughtered, they were in a frenzied evacuation.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, with a smile on her lips.


    It''s a big deal!


    When Ma Chao took the initiative to retreat and ordered the army to retreat, Zhang Xiu knew that Ma Chao was soft. It is said that Ma Chao can even ignore Ma Teng''s life in the hero Tomb of gentle village, but only Han Xuan subdues Ma Chao.


    This is what surprised Zhang Xiu.


    When Ma Chao is willing to give in for Han Xuan, it means that Ma Chao will also begin to deal with Han Sui.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and continued to attack.


    At the same time, Zhang Xiu quickly arranges the sentry and immediately sends a letter to Huang Zhong to let Ma Chao enter the mountain.


    The army kept killing.


    From the location of the granary, all the way to the edge of Minshan. At this time, Ma Chao took the lead and quickly entered the Minshan mountains, followed by some baimaqiang soldiers.Then Huang Zhong killed quickly.


    "Kill


    With a long knife, Huang Zhong led his troops into the crowd of baimaqiang.


    At this moment, all the flying bear soldiers were killed and surrounded by the retreating baimaqiang soldiers. Under the encirclement and killing of the flying bear army, countless baimaqiang people died outside Minshan Mountain, and they could not avoid it at all.


    Under the protection of the soldiers, cuobuzhe broke out and entered Minshan. But by his side, there were less than two or three thousand soldiers left. Most of the soldiers under his command were killed or surrendered outside the mountain.


    In this war, he suffered countless casualties.


    In this war, he was completely defeated.


    Cuobuzhe couldn''t manage the soldiers outside the mountain, so he could only keep on going to the mountain and try to retreat as soon as possible. Under the siege of the army outside the mountain, countless baimaqiang were slaughtered.


    It took more than an hour before the war ended.


    On the official road, a corpse stands across.


    Countless white horse Qiang people, pour in the pool of blood, no breath. Almost the vast majority of the baimaqiang people were killed, and a small number of the surrendered baimaqiang people were taken into custody.


    Huang Zhong quickly counted the losses, disposed of a corpse on the battlefield along the way, burned all the dead Baima Qiang soldiers, and then with the results of the battle, he withdrew to the granary camp.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes twinkled with excitement. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Lord, in this fight with Baima Qiang, we killed 36865 Baima Qiang people, captured 16800, and the rest fled."


    "In our army, nine thousand six hundred seventy-nine people were killed, more than one thousand three hundred people were seriously injured, and countless people were slightly injured. More than 1800 soldiers in our army died in the war, with relatively small casualties. "


    "In this battle, we won the whole battle."


    Huang Zhong said: "today''s baimaqiang people have almost lost most of their power."


    "Good!"


    When Zhang Xiu heard the news of the war, she was very happy.


    This battle has brought prestige.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in this war, the burning of dangqiang will cause great damage. However, those who die will be compensated according to the military pension standards, while those who are injured will be rewarded one by one. We can''t make the soldiers of shaodang Qiang feel cold. "


    "I understand


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    He is familiar with these things and is not complicated.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Huang Zhong stepped down.


    Now Zhang Xiu just needs to wait for news and Ma Chao''s action.

 Chapter 590

    In Minshan Mountain, baimaqiang people live there.


    Cuobuzhe came back with nearly 4000 soldiers. On his way back to the mountain, some soldiers returned. But Rao is so. When he went, there were 60000 or 70000 people, but now only 4000 soldiers have come back. It''s a shame.


    It is more difficult for him to face the countless baimaqiang people.


    Even in the follow-up, there will be more baimaqiang soldiers coming back, but for tsobuzhe, it has been an unparalleled loss, he has never had such a big loss.


    Back to Dazhai, in Wang''s tent.


    The expression on tsobuzhe''s face was cold and furious. He glanced at the tribal head below. Some of the people who followed him fled back, while others died on the battlefield.


    A few of the heads of baimaqiang tribe who came back were still in shock. Up to now, they haven''t recovered and are still immersed in the killing outside Minshan.


    In addition to the seat below, there are also Ma Sui and Han Chao people.


    Today, Han Sui''s face has recovered a little. After all, with the medicine, the body recovered some vitality.


    Cuobuzhe''s eyes immediately fell on Ma Chao and said coldly, "today''s battle, Ma Chao, don''t you give me an account?"


    Ma Chao looked calm and said, "what does the king of Qiang want me to give you?"


    "When the two armies were fighting, you took the lead to retreat with the soldiers," said cuobuzhe. Because your soldiers yelled to retreat, the Qiang soldiers under the king''s command were in turmoil, and they were defeated like a mountain, so that they were slaughtered. It''s all because of you. Ma Chao, don''t you give me an explanation


    "Joke!"


    Ma Chao''s face was full of sarcasm.


    "Why, don''t you admit it?" he said


    Ma Chao raised his head and hurled a voice to the ground: "when he attacked Zhang Xiu''s granary, it was your army under the command of cuobuzhe who stormed at the beginning, but he was shot by bows and arrows and killed countless people."


    "It took countless lives to get close to Zhang Xiu''s camp. But as soon as the army arrived at the gate of the camp, if what I saw was right, it was because the soldiers of shaodangqiang resisted. "


    "Shaodang Qiang resisted with all his strength. With the attack of bow and arrow, the soldiers of Baima Qiang were killed. Even if you took the soldiers into Zhang Xiu''s camp at that time, but in a flash, Zhang Xiu sent cavalry to cover up from the left and right wings, and there was a big army in the camp


    Ma Chao said: "the whole army of baimaqiang, unable to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, has been gradually defeated. When the soldiers are unable to resist, you insist on resisting, leading to signs of rout. "


    "It''s clear that we are about to lose. What else can we resist?"


    "I took it for granted that I led my men to retreat. Can you defeat Zhang Xiu''s army? Don''t put the blame on me, zouze. "


    Ma Chao is very tough, said directly: "you cuobuzhe''s own army, there is no way to win, but also a weak attack strong, lost to Zhang Xiu, blame me for what?"


    "You..."


    His face was full of anger.


    Ma Chao is really bold.


    "Somebody


    Cuobuzhe gave a loud order. In an instant, soldiers were killed at the gate of the camp.


    "Somebody


    Ma Chao''s standing up was also an order. As Ma Chao''s order went on, his soldiers directly broke into the hall.


    There was a confrontation between the two sides.


    Ma Chao clenched his teeth and said, "it''s not so easy for you to kill me. Tsobuzhe, you have made the mistake of belittling the enemy, which led to the loss of your troops. Now it''s impossible to take me down and ask for a crime. "


    The corners of his mouth twitched and his face was very angry.


    He suddenly regretted it.


    We shouldn''t take Ma Chao in.


    Earlier, or just before he left Minshan, it was easy for him to win Ma Chao, because he was strong enough.


    Today, the strength of tsobuzhe has plummeted, and even the troops around him may not be able to win Ma Chao. What''s more, Han Sui was on the side.


    Zouze waved his hand and the soldiers backed down.


    Ma Chao also waved his hand to let his soldiers withdraw from the king''s account.


    Ma Chao''s eyes were very sharp, and said: "King Qiang, we all understand each other, everything is easy to say. If the king of Qiang wants to use force, Ma Chao will accompany him to the end. I, Ma Chao, am not afraid of anyone. "


    The expression on tsobuzhe''s face changed again and again. Unexpectedly, Ma Chao swept his face directly in front of everyone, and didn''t give him any face.


    It''s disgusting!


    Cuobuzhe took a deep breath and said, "Han Sui and Ma Chao, please step back. The rest is the internal affairs of baimaqiang. You don''t have to participate in it. "


    Han Sui and Ma Chao got up, turned and went out.


    Tsobuzhe in the king''s tent looks at the heads of the tribes, with a look of embarrassment on his face. Now, he must appease everyone, otherwise the whole baimaqiang tribe will have big problems.


    After Han Sui and Ma Chao left Wang''s tent, Ma Chao strode ahead with an angry look on his face. Han Sui followed, looking at the angry Ma Chao with a smile in his mouth.Ma Chao realized that Han Sui was following him, and he even wanted to kill Han Sui now. Then he left baimaqiang with Han Sui''s head, but he still suppressed his intention.


    It''s not right now, because if you kill Han Sui now, cuobuzhe will definitely stop you. If you want to kill Han Sui, you should at least hide it a little, otherwise it will not be easy to deal with.


    "Meng Qi, just a moment, just a moment!"


    Han Sui began to remind, with a smile on his face, and said, "what''s going on in this war?"


    Ma Chao said: "what else is going on is defeat."


    Han then invited: "Meng Qi, how about going to my tent for a talk?"


    Ma Chao said, "what''s the matter?"


    Han Sui looked calm and said, "what must I do to get there? Let''s go. It''s too crowded to talk. Go to my tent and we''ll discuss things. "


    "Good!"


    Ma Chao nodded and answered.


    He wanted to see what Han Sui could do.


    Ma Chao and Han Sui entered the camp together, and the guests and the host took their seats. Han Sui said with great interest, "son-in-law, it''s obvious that cuobuzhe is aimed at you. Now he is too weak to deal with you. Once his strength recovers, he will definitely deal with you. You''re not safe today. "


    Ma Chao said, "what''s your opinion?"


    Han Sui''s eyes flashed a cold light, and said, "I don''t know what I''m good at. But all I know is that it''s better to start first and then suffer. In today''s situation, if you want to protect yourself, you have to deal with cuobuzhe first. "


    Ma Chao snorted: "the strength of cuobuzhe is not weak, it is not easy to deal with him."


    "Easy!"


    Han Sui brushed his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "now that tsobuzhe has just returned with his troops, his soldiers are demoralized and have no fighting spirit. Even the heads of the baimaqiang tribes are here. This is an opportunity to wipe out the leaders of the cuobuzhe and baimaqiang tribes. "


    "Now, we will lead our troops to encircle the king''s tent and kill him directly, which is enough to kill CuO Buzhe in one go. Then, we can grasp the baimaqiang and occupy the Minshan Mountain. "


    "Now, our strength can''t compare with Zhang Xiu, so we have to keep a low profile and endure it."


    "When Zhang Xiu''s army leaves Wudu County and Zhang Xiu no longer pays attention to the baimaqiang people in Minshan, we can get out of the mountain. At that time, Liangzhou will still be our Liangzhou, and we can still dominate. "


    Han Sui looks at Ma Chao with a smile.


    At this moment, Ma Chao was also surprised. He didn''t expect Han Sui to be so cruel.


    He wanted to swallow baimaqiang.


    But Ma Chao had to admire Han Sui''s profundity. He even speculated that perhaps Han Sui had foreseen the defeat of TSO Buzhe when he pretended to be ill last night, and then planned this step.


    Just now.


    Seeing that Ma Chao didn''t reply, Han Sui said, "son-in-law, you want to take revenge on Ma Chao, and I also want to take revenge on Ma Chao. Between you and me, although each has his own plan, the purpose is the same. In that case, why not unite? We don''t know that we can only get revenge by relying on tsobuzhe. "


    "OK, I agree!"


    Ma Chao nodded and asked, "when shall we act?"

 Chapter 591

    Han Sui said in a deep voice: "an hour later, you and I will join forces to attack Wang Zhang directly. Even though he still has troops to defend, for our troops, his strength is simply insignificant. "


    "The reason why you choose an hour is to give you time to rest your army. Your soldiers, after a great war, need to rest carefully. "


    "Moreover, with my understanding of tsobuzhe. In order to appease the heads of the baimaqiang tribes who came back, he would surely hold a big banquet and promise to appease them one by one, so as to stabilize the situation. "


    Han Sui''s eyes flashed a light, said: "an hour later, they are all drunk, one by one naive, and we can aggressively kill in the past."


    "Good!"


    Ma Chao responded, turned and left.


    Just as he left, Ma Chao suddenly said, "Han Sui, I hope you won''t play any tricks this time."


    "No!"


    Han Sui replied with a smile.


    Now, he has to rely on Ma Chao. How can he play tricks? He is eager to win over Ma Chao. After all, Ma Chao''s strength is far better than Yan Xing, a fierce general under his command.


    After Ma Chao left Han Sui''s camp, he began to smile. This time, it was an excellent opportunity to calculate Han Sui, even enough to do so.


    Together with Han Sui, he killed cuobuzhe and took baimaqiang. He gained Han Sui''s trust and killed him.


    It can be regarded as a chance to join Zhang Xiu.


    At least, Han Xuan.


    Ma Chao went back to his barracks and called pound. After telling pound about Han Sui''s arrangement and his plan to deal with Han Sui, he said, "Ling Ming, we must be careful in this battle."


    "I understand


    Pound nodded.


    As the number one general under Ma Chao, he even took charge of the army for Ma Chao. He was rather cautious. After pound passed on the orders, the soldiers in the army took a quick rest.


    An hour later, Ma Chao and pound went straight to Han Sui''s station with their troops.


    Han Sui has also mobilized his troops, and all his soldiers have been arrayed in order. As soon as he saw Ma Chao coming, Han stopped hesitating and ordered, "let''s go!"


    At this moment, Han Sui was wearing a helmet.


    At this moment, Han Sui was in high spirits.


    No matter where he is, he is not willing to give up. Now, he finally has a chance to deal with cuobuzhe, which is a good opportunity for him to dominate baimaqiang.


    Han Sui and Ma Chao had nearly ten thousand troops, and their combat effectiveness was extremely strong. The army was not far from Wang zhangben, only a quarter of an hour away.


    When the army approached the periphery of Wang''s tent, it was stopped by the soldiers of cuobuzhe, and then some soldiers reported it. Some soldiers also called out the enemy to attack, intending to mobilize the army to defend.


    But by this time, it was too late.


    Even though the soldiers under the command of cuobuzhe tried their best to resist, under the fierce attack of Ma Chao and Han Sui, the Baima Qiang soldiers under the command of cuobuzhe retreated and could not resist.


    After a great war, the soldiers under the command of tsobuzhe were all tired divisions.


    Fight, go to the door of the king''s tent.


    When they came out to the gate of the tribe, the head of the Qiang clan took a look at him. Seeing Han Sui and Ma Chao who surrounded him, CuO Buzhe gritted his teeth and said, "Han Sui and Ma Chao, what do you want to do?"


    Ma Chao didn''t open his mouth and stood aside quietly.


    Han Sui raised his head and threw a voice on the ground: "tsobuzhe, you are self willed and arrogant. You are the king of Baima Qiang. You can''t see the situation clearly, resulting in the killing of countless Baima Qiang Erlang. Today, I set out to fight for justice for the countless dead Baima Qiang Erlang. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When TSO Buzhe heard this, he couldn''t help laughing and said, "you Han Sui know something about Qiang people. It''s a joke that you have to ask for justice for the dead baimaqiang people. "


    Han Sui said, "even if I''m Han Chinese, so what?"


    Cuobuzhe gritted his teeth and said, "Han Sui, you really want to kill me. Do you know that without me, you can''t have a foothold in Minshan, and you can''t command the thousands of people of Baima Qiang."


    By this time, tsobuzhe had understood.


    Han then wanted to kill him.


    This is to replace him as the king of Qiang.


    With a smile in his mouth, Han Sui said, "it''s none of your business whether or not cuobuzhe can stand on Minshan Mountain and accept the people of baimaqiang. That''s what I want to do."


    "Kill


    Han then gave the order.


    His soldiers, fast forward.


    Ma Chao also took the golden gun of tiger head Zhan and rushed out directly. He charged quickly. In a short time, he had already reached the front and went straight to cuobuzhe.


    "Ma Chao, you want to die!"


    When cuobuzhe saw that Ma Chao was the first to kill him, he pulled out his sword and cut it off."Dang!"


    The weapon struck and made a crisp sound.


    Tiger head Zhan gold gun a lift, knock fly CuO Bu Zhe''s sword. The big gun continued to move forward. With a puff, it penetrated into the heart of cuobuzhe and directly pierced his chest.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed from the chest of tsobuzhe. Ma Chao takes back his golden spear, and cuobuzhe falls to the ground with his head up. His mouth overflows with blood, and his body twitches twice, and he has no breath.


    Ma Chao, who killed cuobuzhe, did not stop and continued to move forward.


    In his hand, the golden spear of tiger head Cham kept stabbing out, killing the tribal heads of baimaqiang, and then killing the rest of the baimaqiang soldiers. There was chaos around the king''s tent, which became a unilateral slaughter.


    Han Sui did not leave any soldiers of cuobuzhe, nor did he leave any patriarchs of baimaqiang tribes.


    He''s been killing.


    Nearly half an hour passed before the war ended.


    Ma Chao came to the corpse of cuobuzhe and looked at him, who had been dead for a long time, waiting quietly. He believed that Han Sui would come to tsobuzhe.


    Sure enough, Han Sui came.


    Han Sui strode forward with a bright smile on his face. When he came to Ma Chao''s side, he reached out and patted Ma Chao on the shoulder and said, "good job, son-in-law. You''ve done the most to kill the chief of the baimaqiang tribe this time."


    Ma Chao said, "my father-in-law is very polite. I''m not used to it."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Han Sui was very proud, and said: "no matter, you will get used to it. When we take cuobuzhe and others, the next step is to completely control the whole baimaqiang people. "


    With that, he stepped forward to the king''s tent.


    Ma Chao followed him closely. His golden gun was already clenched. When Han Sui stepped forward, he lifted it like lightning.


    "Whew!"


    A long gun is as fast as lightning.


    This shot, poured Ma Chao all strength, cannot allow to lose.


    This shot, more related to Han Xuan''s life and death, must succeed.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated directly into Han Sui''s back and then protruded from his front chest. With one shot, Han Sui''s life was cut off. Han Sui looked down at the blood dripping from his chest and the tip of the gun. His brow rose and his face showed an incredible look.


    How is that possible?


    Why does Ma Chao want to kill him? It''s not good for Ma Chao to kill him.


    "Poof!"


    The gun twitched and the blood spattered.


    Han then clenched his teeth, turned around and looked at Ma Chao. His mouth was slightly open and he said, "Ma Chao, why, why..."


    As soon as the words were finished, Han Sui''s eyes turned dark and his body lost a trace of strength. His vigorous body fell to the ground with no breath.

 Chapter 592

    In the granary camp, Zhang Xiuzheng inspects the drill of soldiers in the army.


    He has nothing to do now. After all, the affairs of baimaqiang depend on Ma Chao. As long as Ma Chao can kill Han Sui, the threat of Baima Qiang will disappear completely.


    Zhang Xiu is not busy, even has time to play with duo Er, but Yang Xiu is extremely busy.


    Yang Xiu wants to take advantage of Wang Yue''s presence in Liangzhou and use the royal guards under Wang Yue''s command to find out the news on a large scale, find out the situation in all parts of Liangzhou, so as to help him manage Liangzhou in the future.


    After Zhang Xiu''s inspection, he arranged for someone to shout Gao Lan into the tent.


    Gao Lan has been under his command for some time. Although Gao Lan was the Deputy General of Zhang Yan, in fact, he did not give full play to his strength. After all, Gao Lan''s ability was enough to serve as an army.


    Gao Lan Baoquan said: "my Lord, what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m calling you. I''m going to make a transfer about your arrangement."


    Gao Lan said, "please order."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the chaos of baimaqiang is about to be settled. Next, we need to stabilize Liangzhou and govern it. During this period of time, Yang Xiu was busy inquiring about the news of Liangzhou, and had already started to govern Liangzhou. In fact, in the next step, Yang Xiu will be the governor of Liangzhou. As for you, I want to appoint you as general Pinglu and lead an army to take charge of Liangzhou. "


    "I''ll do it


    When I read the words, I feel happy in my heart.


    As the chief General of the first army, it is excellent to be in Liangzhou.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s respect for him.


    Of course, Gao Lan knew that in Liangzhou, Yang Xiu was the main one, and he was the auxiliary one. What he has to do is to help Yang Xiu to sort out all the things in Liangzhou.


    But no matter what, he is the chief General of the first army.


    No matter what, he''s got a second chance.


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and continued: "the situation in Liangzhou is no better than that in other counties. There are Qiang people here, as well as the rest of the Rong Di, many foreigners. If you take the lead, there will be a lot of pressure and a lot of trouble. You need to be on your guard against all this. "


    "Yes


    Gao Lan answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "if you are in Liangzhou, all the soldiers in the army must be Han Chinese. When I leave Liangzhou, I will leave you 20000 elite soldiers so that you can control the situation. "


    "Thank you


    After answering, Gao Lan asked, "under the present situation, how can we arrange the Qiang soldiers without using them?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''ll call in all the Qiang soldiers who burn them and then take them away. I married shaodangqiang''s duo''er, who is a support to shaodangqiang. If you don''t take away all the elite of shaodang Qiang, it''s easy to make shaodang Qiang sit big. "


    After hearing the speech, Gao Lan was convinced and said, "my Lord, I am a mirror!"


    I admire Zhang Xiu for her foresight.


    In fact, it is true that Zhang Xiu''s marriage to shaodang Qiang''s duo''er may lead to the rapid growth of midang''s power. Under this premise, we must select the elite of shaodang Qiang.


    Of course, in the view of shaodang Qiang soldiers, such a transfer is not to weaken the strength of shaodang Qiang. On the contrary, it is Zhang Xiu''s respect. It will not let shaodang Qiang resist. Even shaodang Qiang soldiers will take part in it enthusiastically.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, Wang Yue''s voice came.


    Wang Yue rushed in with a look of joy on his face. He reported: "Lord, Ma Chao, with a group of soldiers of Baima Qiang, and a group of soldiers, went to the camp to see him."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    Wang Yue turned and went out, ready to inform. But as soon as he got to the gate of the camp, he heard Zhang Xiu say, "wait a minute!"


    Wang Yue turned around and said, "what else can I do for you, my lord?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I welcome you personally!"


    For Ma Chao, although Zhang Xiu doesn''t have a good impression, she can make Ma Chao obedient and let him play for him, which means that he has another tiger general under his command. What''s more, there are tiger generals like pound under Ma Chao''s command.


    This is talent, too.


    Zhang Xiu got up and left the camp, followed by Wang Yue and Gao Lan. After a while, Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the camp and saw Ma Chao who led the soldiers to the granary.


    On Ma Chao''s horse, there are two heads hanging.


    One head is Han Sui''s.


    The other head is zouze.


    When they were in the mountains, their heads had been treated with lime. Although their heads had changed because of the overflow of blood, they could see clearly when they looked at them carefully.


    Ma Chao, who was originally riding on his horse, saw Zhang Xiu go to the gate of the camp, dismount and kneel on one knee, clasping his fists and saying, "sinner Ma Chao, lead the people to surrender to the Taiwei. Ma Chao killed Han Sui and cuobuzhe, the king of Baima Qiang. All the forces of Baima Qiang are here. Please accept


    "Please accept it!"


    All the soldiers under Ma Chao''s command, as well as the rest of the white horse Qiang soldiers, spoke together.


    "Good, good, good!"With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu strode up to Ma Chao and said, "Meng Qi is a tiger general. I''m very glad that Meng Qi is obedient. Come and join the camp with me. "


    "Captain Xie!"


    Ma Chao just stood up.


    The rest of the soldiers stood up one after another and then stood in order.


    Zhang Xiu takes all the people into the barracks. Gao Lan takes over Ma Chao''s army and controls all the soldiers of Baima Qiang, Han Sui and Ma Chao.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Ma Chao saluted Zhang Xiu again and said, "I have done what I should do, Zhang Taiwei. I don''t know. When will Zhang Taiwei fulfill the agreement? "


    For Ma Chao, his biggest worry is his wife and children.


    That''s his life.


    It is not polite to say that if he is allowed to choose between Ma Teng and Han Xuan, he will definitely abandon Ma Teng and choose Han Xuan. Because Ma Teng values Ma Xiu most, not Ma Chao, and even he is hostile to Ma Teng.


    Han Xuan is different.


    In Han Xuan''s place, Ma Chao is all of Han Xuan.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and replied, "don''t worry, I''ve arranged for someone to bring Han Xuan. During this period of time, although the weather was slightly hot, we arranged experienced doctors to take care of Han Xuan and ensure the safety of her and her fetus. "


    "Thank you, Tai Wei!"


    Ma Chao immediately said thanks to Zhang Xiu.


    He rubbed his hands and waited.


    Soon after, the curtain of the tent door was lifted and a pretty woman entered. This woman is Han Xuan. Today''s Han Xuan is a little fat. After all, she is pregnant. When she sees Ma Chao, she pours directly on Ma Chao''s chest and sobs in a low voice.


    During this time, she was very worried.


    Worried about Ma Chao''s safety.


    Even she often can''t sleep at night, always worried about what''s wrong with Ma Chao, now she finally met people.


    Ma Chao gently stroked Han Xuan''s back and comforted her: "madam, it''s OK. Everything is over. I''m relieved to see that you''re OK. "


    Han Xuan nodded busily, and she was very happy. Up to now, Han Xuan doesn''t know Han Sui''s death, but even if Han Xuan knows that Ma Chao killed Han Sui, Han Xuan sighs at most.


    The married daughter is Ma Chao''s daughter. Han Xuan knows the relationship between Han Sui and Ma Chao, and knows that sooner or later, Ma Chao and Han Sui will kill each other.


    This is the troubled times.


    Even Weng''s son-in-law calculated with each other.


    So Han Xuan''s heart was ready, and Ma Chao killed Han Sui in order to save her.

 Chapter 593

    Zhang Xiu lightly a smile, way: "since have already seen, the words of reminiscence, leave behind to say again.". You''re a father and husband. Congratulations. There''s plenty of time for reminiscence


    "Good!"


    Ma Chao responded directly.


    The soldiers came forward and backed down with Han Xuan.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Ma Chao and said, "Ma Chao, are you willing to submit to me?"


    Ma Chao said: "I am not submissive?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "you know what I''m talking about is not simple obedience. It''s true obedience. I''m completely determined to serve me."


    Ma Chao frowned when he heard it.


    Because of Han Xuan, he was willing to submit to Zhang Xiu and kill Han Sui. Otherwise, with Ma Chao''s temperament, he is bound to fight Zhang Xiu to the end. This is Ma Chao''s temperament.


    He''s not feeling well.


    Lost to Zhang Xiu, want to win back.


    Because of his wife and children, he was willing to surrender when he had troubles in his heart. Can let him completely obedient, since then for Zhang Xiu effect death, Ma Chao''s heart is some diaphragm should.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Ma Chao''s expression in her eyes, with a smile in her mouth.


    That''s what he expected.


    Ma Chao is not concerned about it, so it is impossible for him to submit. But as long as Ma Chao is obedient, then he must let Ma Chao serve him wholeheartedly. After all, although Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao used to be enemies, Zhang Xiu never killed Ma Teng, and there was no real and irreconcilable hatred between them.


    Such as Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao, he killed Yuan Shao''s son, both sides have formed a dead feud, it is impossible to resolve the resentment.


    Ma Chao is different.


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "Ma Chao, you are a strong general on the battlefield. You should know that the two armies are fighting and each is their own master. In order to defeat the other side, it''s very normal to use all kinds of means, or even use all kinds of methods. In the past, you and I fought on the battlefield. Even outside Longxian, you and I are against the enemy. But now, it''s different. "


    Ma Chao looks silent, but he agrees with Zhang Xiu.


    When they are in charge of their own affairs, they should act separately.


    It''s just that he once tried to beat Zhang Xiu. Now defeated in the hands of Zhang Xiu, but also to work for Zhang Xiu, the heart is always a little diaphragm should be. As a warrior, Ma Chao has his own pride.


    Zhang said: "you are not too old to be impatient. Similarly, you and I are both new fathers. Parents and children want a better future for their children. "


    "Now that you have children, you are a father, and you have to shoulder the responsibility of the family."


    "For the sake of my little obsession and little face, if I don''t want to work for me and fight with all my strength, I can''t make contributions."


    "Zhang Xiu asked:" such a result, what can you get in the end


    "You get nothing."


    "Can you influence me?"


    "No, it doesn''t matter to me. Because without you, my army is still invincible. With your obedience, it''s just icing on the cake. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "of course, you can also say that Ma Chao would rather live a simple life than work for you. But who is harmed by this result? It can''t hurt me, Zhang Xiu, or you, Ma Chao. It''s only your wife and children who will be harmed. "


    Ma Chao raised his eyebrows after hearing this, and his face changed a little.


    In fact, it is not Ma Chao''s father Ma Teng or his army that can affect Ma Chao''s nerves, but Ma Chao''s wife Han Xuan and her fetus.


    That''s the point.


    It''s a breakthrough to convince Ma Chao.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was calm, and she said seriously: "Meng Qi, you are not young. Many people of your age have already got married and have a lot of children."


    "As a father, have you ever given a little thought to the future for your children?"


    "I guess you haven''t thought about it."


    "After you have surrendered to me, you are willing to be quiet, not to see outsiders, not to see guests. But do you want your children and your wife to live in seclusion all the time? "


    Zhang Xiu was slightly excited and said: "the child is a little older. If you want to start reading, you can''t do it without a certain amount of money. The higher your title, the greater your influence, and the better the starting point of your offspring. "


    "You, Ma Chao, have suffered from the shadow since childhood. You know the harm of not being taken seriously."


    "Is it hard for you to let your son go through such an experience again. For the sake of your selfishness and your poor self-esteem, he is submissive on the surface, but actually he doesn''t want to work for me. "


    "I look down on Ma Chao like this."


    Zhang Xiu gradually sharp words, said: "imagine the future, your son also look down on you."


    "Shut up


    Ma Chao couldn''t help drinking.But Zhang Xiu didn''t stop talking. He knew that his words moved the string in Ma Chao''s heart, and had the hope of completely dissolving Ma Chao''s obsession. Only with Ma Chao''s all-out loyalty, can Zhang Xiu get a real hero.


    Therefore, we must resolve Ma Chao''s obsession.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "speaking of your wife, Han, it''s really admirable. I asked the royal guards to inquire about her. Although Han is not the most favored daughter under Han Sui''s knee, she is graceful, gentle and virtuous, and has a good life. "


    "After I married you, I was scared all day. Since I was pregnant with your child, I have to think about it everywhere. It''s not easy."


    "I admire her."


    "After she married you, she was ma Han. She didn''t regard herself as Han family. She always regarded herself as Ma Chao''s woman. She was a member of Ma family."


    "She gave everything for you. At the same time, she places all her hopes and everything on you. Unfortunately, for your own self-esteem, you are still not willing to pay all for her. "


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head and sighs: "it''s a pity, it''s a pity that a good woman is entrusted by no one."


    "Shut up


    Ma Chao spoke again.


    He clenched his fist, and his face became ferocious. In his heart, he began to struggle.


    One represents himself.


    One represents his wife and children.


    Both are in the heart, the same as the contest. But in the end, his wife and children got the upper hand. Ma Chao took a deep breath, with helplessness and relief on his face.


    It''s easy to decide. Before making a decision, there is always hesitation and many thoughts in my heart. After the decision, there is no thought.


    Because the obsession disappears.


    "Plop!"


    Ma Chao lifted his robe, knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and said, "Ma Chao, I''m willing to serve the Lord. This life, this life, go through fire and water, people and gods learn from each other. If you disobey this oath, heaven will strike thunder! "


    It''s not just loyalty, it''s an oath.


    Also let Zhang Xiu completely rest assured.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Ma Chao''s words, she showed a bright smile on her angular face. She got up and went to Ma Chao. She held Ma Chao up in person and said in a voice: "you can''t defeat me, I can''t defeat you."


    In this era, everyone believes in ghosts and gods.


    The power of oath, to some extent, is more binding than the law.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu believes that Ma Chao is submissive.


    After Ma Chao stood still, he felt a little uncomfortable, but when he put down his obsession, he felt relaxed. Because between Zhang Xiu and him, the strength of both sides has been too different.


    On martial arts, Ma Chao has been far away from Zhang Xiu, not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. When it comes to the strength of both sides, Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and now she has almost captured Liangzhou.


    How does he challenge Zhang Xiu?


    There is no capital at all.


    Before that, Ma Chao''s obsession with revenge was his own crazy idea. On the contrary, it is now put down, but the heart is a pure, unprecedented ease.


    Ma Chao changed his mind and said, "how can pound, the great general under my command, be placed after I surrender to my lord?"


    For pound, Ma Chao is very concerned.


    From the beginning, pound followed him all the time. Under such circumstances, since Ma Chao is obedient, his heart hopes to arrange the way for pound in the future.


    No, it''s going to leave pound helpless.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and explained: "don''t worry, Pound''s official position will be arranged by himself and he won''t be mistreated. Go down and talk to your wife. As for your official position, I''ll arrange it after I return to Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    Ma Chao retreats with his fist clasped.

 Chapter 594

    When Ma Chao comes out of the Chinese army, Zhang Xiu immediately arranges for someone to bring pound in.


    Pound was a big man, very strong.


    This is a tiger general.


    Zhang Xiu loves pound, a brave and loyal general. As a matter of fact, there is no king who does not like loyal ministers and powerful generals.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the standing pound and said faintly: "just now, Ma Chao was obedient to me. Pang Lingming, are you willing to submit and serve me? "


    Pound looked a little hesitant.


    Ma Chao surrendered to Zhang Xiu. He knew exactly what was going on. He was coerced by Zhang Xiu. If Ma Chao''s wife and children had not been arrested, Ma Chao would not have killed Han Sui.


    Therefore, pound thought that Ma Chao''s surrender was temporary. Since pound chose Ma Chao, he should play for Ma Chao. If Ma Chao is really obedient to Zhang Xiu, then he works for Zhang Xiu, which is reasonable.


    At present, pound does not know Ma Chao''s decision.


    Seeing Pound''s hesitating look, Zhang Xiu had a judgment in her heart and said with a smile, "you don''t have to worry. Just now, Ma Chao has really been subordinated to his official position and is really working for me. Besides, he also asked me to arrange your affairs. You don''t have to doubt or worry about this. Ma Chao is in the military camp. You can ask at any time. "


    When pound heard this, he didn''t insist any more. He lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee and said, "pound, I''m willing to work for the Taiwei."


    "See you, Lord!"


    He saluted with folded fists, which was very solemn.


    For pound, he knew that Zhang Xiu was not only a master, but also a master. If you can follow people like Zhang Xiu, his martial arts can be displayed.


    This is his chance.


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    "Thank you


    Pound bows his hand to thank him, but he looks forward to the days when he will follow Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "as for Ma Chao''s arrangement, I have already told him that when I return to Chang''an, I will be resettling Ma Chao''s official position. But you pound, I want to arrange it now. "


    Pound said, "at the Lord''s command."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I''ve ordered you to be the captain of the defeated school and the Deputy General of Gaolan. Next, we will appoint the governor of Liangzhou and the general who will take charge of Liangzhou. Gao Lan is the general in Liangzhou. As his deputy general, you can help him stabilize Liangzhou. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Gaolan is a stranger and doesn''t understand Liangzhou. You are from Liangzhou and familiar with the situation. Although all the counties in Liangzhou are willing to be attached, in fact, it is not easy to control Liangzhou, so your task is very heavy. "


    "I will do my best to serve my Lord."


    Pound was excited when he heard that.


    Although he is just an ordinary captains, but to bear the matter is very important. It was pound who came from Liangzhou that realized the complexity of Liangzhou.


    It is not easy to govern Liangzhou.


    It is not easy to stabilize Liangzhou.


    So he stayed in Liangzhou to help Gaolan, which is promising and can make contributions.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Pound bowed his hand and turned to withdraw. As a wise general, pound also praised Zhang Xiu''s arrangement in his heart, which gave him a heavy responsibility and separated him from Ma Chao.


    One is hard and one is soft.


    Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry to leave Qiangdao County, but still stayed in the granary for a day.


    This day is a time for Huang Zhong to adjust his army. One day later, Zhang Xiu called the civil and military officers and generals under her command to the big account of the Chinese army. This time, not only Huang Zhong and others, but also the chief General of the Qiang people, aguli, Ma Chao and pound, were present.


    Everyone gathered, Zhang Xiu to arrange the next thing.


    Zhang Xiu looked around everyone and took the lead in announcing the appointment of Yang Xiu. This appointment, in fact, is not much accident, because Zhang Xiu''s subordinates, Yang Xiu, Gao Lan and others have already known.


    As the governor of Liangzhou, Yang Xiu was in charge of Liangzhou. Although Yang Xiu was young, under Zhang Xiu''s command, he had made many achievements and made great contributions. No one opposed him.


    After Yang Xiu''s appointment, Zhang Xiu announced the appointment of Gao Lan and pound.


    Ma Chao was surprised at the news. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu will let pound stay in Liangzhou. But Ma Chao''s heart, but also for pound happy, because pound as a deputy to stay, is promising.


    After Zhang Xiu announced the event, her eyes finally fell on ah Guli and said, "ah Guli!"


    "Yes


    Aguli stood up and answered.


    Although aguli and Zhang Xiu''s relationship, he is Zhang Xiu''s brother-in-law, but this is a formal occasion, he must call Zhang Xiu as Taiwei, in order to show respect for Zhang Xiu.


    It''s a relationship of superiority and inferiority.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "in view of the bravery of shaodang Qiang Er Lang, I''m going to set up a separate army, named feiqiang army! The organizational structure of the feiqiang army was 20000 people, who fought with me in all directions. Would you like to be the first commander of the feiqiang army, Guli"Yes, I do!"


    Aguli''s heart is full of joy.


    He is willing to be the commander of the first army.


    This is his chance.


    Although he stayed in shaodang Qiang, he would be the king of shaodang Qiang. But the king of Qiang, who is a little bit of a king, is, in the final analysis, the leader of a larger tribe, and there is not much to show off.


    But as the leader of Zhang Xiu''s army, he is different.


    Ah Guli is not a stupid man. He learned from the Central Plains and knelt down and said, "Lord, ah Guli should do his best to go through fire and water for him


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Here it is


    Aguli stood up, happy mood, has been beyond expression.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "ah Guli, now there are two things you need to do."


    Aguli said, "please give me your orders."


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "the first is to escort the ashes of the soldiers who died in the war and burned them back to burn them. Although baimaqiang was killed in this battle, there were countless sons of shaodangqiang who died in the battle. Dead soldiers, all the pensions and awards, you take them back together and distribute them to their families. Let their family know that Zhang Xiu has never forgotten them. "


    "Here it is


    Aguli nodded.


    For the soldiers who died in the war, aguli also felt sorry.


    It''s a pity that there are so many good boys.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "the second thing, you take the remaining soldiers back to shaodangqiang and recruit them again according to their standards. Today, there are only more than ten thousand soldiers in the flying Qiang army. The organizational structure of the feiqiang army is 20000 people. Therefore, we need to recruit nearly 10000 people to fill in and enhance our combat effectiveness. "


    "Please rest assured, my Lord, that you will complete the task."


    Zhang Xiu said: "remember that Zhang Xiu''s conscription is not about apportioning tasks or forcing people to join the army. When you go back to shaodang Qiang, what you want to recruit is young people who want to join the flying Qiang army voluntarily. "


    "When you go back, you only need to give orders. Those who are willing to join the army can join the army. Those who are not willing to join the army don''t have to be forced. They can''t cause the dissatisfaction of shaodangqiang."


    "After the conscription is completed, you will lead the army directly to Chang''an, where you will join me."


    Zhang Xiu said the detailed arrangement.


    "I understand


    After hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, aguli praised her thoughtfulness.


    Zhang Xiu sees a Guli''s response and smiles in her heart.


    In fact, he was not worried about conscription at all. Because in today''s situation, shaodang Qiang soldiers in the army have seen many advantages of his soldiers. When they return to shaodang Qiang, they will surely make a lot of propaganda.


    Most of them are poor, though they live well and do not lack food and clothing. Even if you don''t worry about food and clothing, life is not easy. As soon as I saw that there were so many advantages in Zhang Xiu''s army, I would definitely join the army.


    When shaodang Qiang''s youth arrived in Chang''an with aguli, the power of shaodang Qiang was greatly weakened.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s consideration.


    Zhang Xiu arranged all the things again. When all the things were arranged properly, Zhang Xiu stopped staying and mobilized the army to set out for Chang''an. Zhang Xiu did not plan to go to the remaining counties.


    Yang Xiu, Gao Lan and pound will handle the remaining counties.


    After all, the biggest people in Liangzhou have been exterminated by Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu left, there was not much left of the regular army under Zhang Ya''s command, because he dispatched 20000 troops to Gao Lan.


    Next, Zhang jaw will recruit soldiers again to restore the number of regular soldiers.

 Chapter 595

    Zhang Xiu left Liangzhou with a large army, left Wudu County, and entered Hanyang county. Whether it is Wudu County, or Jincheng County, Longxi County and other places, are under the control of Zhang Xiu.


    Although it has not been completely controlled, on the surface, all places have been subordinated. To really control Liangzhou, Yang Xiu''s unremitting efforts are still needed. When the army left Longxi County and arrived at Longguan again, it was almost noon when the army stopped to rest.


    The soldiers began to cook.


    Zhang Xiu backs against a big tree and hides in the shade to enjoy the cool.


    Now it''s June. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. The sun is burning all over the body.


    When Zhang Xiu closed her eyes, Pang Tong and Sima Yi came together.


    "Lord!"


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi saluted Zhang Xiu at the same time.


    Zhang Xiu opened her eyes and said, "sit down!"


    When they were sitting in the shade of a tree beside Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong said, "my Lord, when I chatted with Zhong Da, I happened to talk about the weather today and found a strange situation."


    Zhang xiudao: "what''s the situation?"


    Pang Tong looked dignified and said: "since the beginning of spring this year, it has only rained twice, both light rain. The last time, a month and a half have passed since now. "


    "It''s very hot now. It hasn''t rained for a month and a half. The soil is dry. Many seedlings in the fields are dying. If this trend continues, I''m afraid there will be a severe drought. "


    "As soon as Guanzhong was stabilized, the Lord defeated Yuan Shao. If it is a good year, the foundation of the Lord can be thoroughly consolidated. But now there is a severe drought, which is likely to lead to turbulence in Guanzhong. "


    Pang Tong said: "I think it''s necessary to make arrangements as soon as possible."


    Sima Yi echoed: "before, when we went on the expedition, Xu Shangshu said that continuous wars had reduced the grain reserves in Chang''an on a large scale. Once a severe drought occurs, this year''s grain can not be harvested, and the rise of grain prices is a great threat to us. When the price of food rises and the people''s life is hard, there will be turbulence under the Lord''s command. "


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there was a fine light.


    What Pang Tong and Sima Yi mentioned is extremely important.


    Zhang Xiu''s Guanzhong seems to have a solid foundation, but in fact, compared with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, the foundation is not solid enough.


    Zhang Xiu said: "this matter should be dealt with as soon as possible. We should speed up our journey and return to Chang''an as soon as possible. I hope there will be rain on my way back to Chang''an. No, keep the drought going. "


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi nodded one after another.


    In today''s situation, once the drought really happens, it will be a great test for Zhang Xiu.


    After lunch, the party set out to continue on their way. Not long after going east from Longguan, it entered the boundary of Guanzhong. Along the way, Zhang Xiu is watching the weather carefully. As the days go by, the temperature is rising a little bit.


    It''s getting hotter in June. But summer is hot, but not a drop of rain falls.


    There was a drought in Guanzhong.


    The grain planted on the cultivated land of many people has withered.


    In fact, it''s easy. If it''s really dry and short of water, people and animals are short of drinking water, that''s a more dangerous thing.


    Zhang Xiu is anxious. Instead of going with Huang Zhong, Zhang Ya and others, she takes Sima Yi and Pang Tong to Chang''an. It''s urgent.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Chang''an, it was already in the middle of June.


    In the hot summer, there are fewer pedestrians and businessmen in the streets of Chang''an city. Under the scorching sun, people hide in their rooms and are reluctant to move around.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to Taiwei''s residence, she immediately summoned Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Tian Feng and others who were staying.


    Everyone gathered and took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned, swept all the people present and said, "has it rained in Guanzhong for nearly two months?"


    Xu Shu replied, "report back to my Lord, there are signs of drought in Guanzhong. As for the severe drought, humble position and public consultation, they have been informed and ordered the officials of counties and counties to dig wells for water on a large scale. In addition, people were arranged to dig ditches to divert irrigation water from silos to all directions. As long as canals extend in all directions, we can at least guarantee the continuous supply of water for the time being. "


    Zhang Xiu was relieved, said: "drought can not be ignored, this matter must be careful."


    "I understand


    Xu Shu nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "today''s drought, I do not know when it will last, I do not know what will eventually evolve into. So now, we have to be prepared. Next, there are three things to arrange. "


    "Please make it public!"


    Xu Shu spoke.


    All people''s eyes, also fall on Zhang Xiu, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s instructions.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "first, increase the purchase of grain. Once the drought occurs, it is likely to affect the price of grain. Only when there is enough grain in the granary can the situation be stabilized and there will be no turbulence. "


    "Second, the summer drought is prone to locust disasters. We must inform them of this and take precautions as soon as possible. Otherwise, locusts will be rampant, and it will be quite troublesome. ""Third, in the border area, we should strengthen the sentry to get information. No matter Yuan Shao or Cao Cao or other places, they all want us to have trouble and turbulence. At that time, they may step in. Therefore, we should closely monitor the situation at the border and report it as soon as possible. "


    Zhang Xiu talked about the general arrangement of three points.


    Today''s situation, Zhang Xiu can only do these. For the rest, we have to go step by step. After all, the drought has not really taken shape.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier entered quickly.


    Soldiers are the royal guards. They are responsible for delivering messages. He went to Wang Yue''s side, whispered a word, presented a letter, and bowed down.


    What happened to the king of embroidery


    Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "I have just received news from Luoyang. There are many thieves and bandits in the western counties of Henan Province. Even at the junction of Henan and Hongnong, an organization named Huang Tiandao appeared. Huang Tiandao wantonly solicits the common people, preaches believes in Huang Tian, may avoid the natural disaster and the man-made disaster


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "this natural disaster, you can avoid what you believe in. In today''s situation, we have to rely on ourselves. Is Huang Tiandao an organization like Taiping Dao? "


    "I don''t know my humble duty!"


    Wang Yue shook his head and presented the letter.


    Zhang Xiu quickly opened the letter, looked at it, and her face was surprised. The reason why he was surprised was that Huang Tiandao was similar to Taiping Dao and did not change much.


    Huang Tiandao, is expanding rapidly.


    After reading the letter, Zhang Xiu once again said, "in today''s situation, the main energy is focused on Chang''an. Du Ji, you are Jing Zhaoyin. You should pay more attention. "


    "I understand


    Du Ji replied solemnly.


    Du Ji is also wary of Huang Tiandao. At this time, there should be no trouble in Guanzhong.

 Chapter 596

    Zhang Xiu finally said: "in today''s situation, disaster relief is the first priority. Everything else is on the side. The matter of going south to Jingzhou will not be considered for the time being. "


    Jia Xu said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "the drought in Guanzhong, you should do your best to relieve the disaster. Next, I will inspect all parties. You are still dealing with all matters concerning Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu, Xu Shu and others answered together.


    For them, it doesn''t make much difference whether Zhang Xiu is there or not. After all, the main government affairs are maintained by Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s get busy."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others should go down together.


    After everyone retreated, Zhang Xiu got up and went to the back yard. This time he came back, he had brought dor back. First, he asked the housekeeper to take dor to the backyard.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in the backyard, everyone around Zhang Cheng.


    Now Zhang Cheng is almost half a year old.


    The little guy''s appearance has been long open. It''s very funny. All of a sudden, there is one more child in the family, and everyone revolves around the child. This is true of Huang Yueying, Cao Jie, Zhen MI and duo''er.


    In addition to Huang Yueying, Cao Jie''s three look at pink Dudu''s child, and they are even more envious. They wish they could have a child to play with immediately.


    After staying in the backyard for a long time, Zhang Xiu left Taiwei''s house. On this trip, Zhang Xiu took Sima Yi, Deng Zhan, Shi a, Wang Yue and a group of soldiers to the East.


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others have responded to the drought.


    The specific situation in various places is not known.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s worry.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiucai personally inspected all parties to ensure the stability of Guanzhong.


    Now there is no crisis in Chang''an. After all, the ditches in Chang''an have been excavated for a long time. In case of drought, water will be diverted from the river channel immediately, and the water will flow to all sides to ensure sufficient water.


    In Chang''an County, there is not much influence.


    Leave Chang''an and enter Hongnong county.


    Hongnong county is headed by Sima Lang.


    Sima Lang was also good at local governance. Moreover, Sima Lang had been informed by Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others long ago, and arranged for people to fight against drought. Where Zhang Xiu had gone, there was no trouble for the time being.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Hongnong County, Sima Lang went to the gate to welcome her arrival.


    Sima Lang has great admiration for Zhang Xiu.


    His father, Sima Fang, was always hard to persuade, but now he preaches and teaches in Chang''an Academy. In addition, in a short period of time, Zhang Xiu not only stabilized Guanzhong, but also captured Liangzhou, which was the real shepherd.


    Sima Lang stood at the door, waiting quietly.


    In addition, there are Hongnong County Yiying County Cheng and others.


    The crowd gathered and waited for Zhang Xiu.


    At this time, the weather was even hotter. Sima Lang and others were at the gate of the city. After waiting for less than a quarter of an hour, their backs were soaked with sweat, and there were fine beads of sweat on their forehead.


    It''s too hot.


    Sima Lang wiped the sweat on his forehead, but there was a trace of anxiety between his eyebrows.


    Hot summer, although it is hot, is the most abundant season of rain. But this summer, in addition to the hot, there is no rain, continuous drought, making the situation very bad. Although in a short time, the people of Hongnong county can still support. But in fact, if such a drought continues, Hongnong county must be in danger.


    This is what Sima Lang is worried about.


    "Here it is


    Suddenly, in the crowd, an official gave a shout.


    With this cry, everyone''s eyes fell on the official road ahead. I saw in front of the official road, a line of people riding, impressively is Zhang Xiu and others.


    Sima Lang encouraged himself, and when the two sides were less than 30 steps away, he personally led the people forward. See Zhang Xiu, Sima Lang arched: "humble Sima Lang, meet the Lord."


    "See you, Taiwei!"


    The others saluted one after another.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you don''t have to be polite. You all said you don''t have to meet. But you have to face the heat. Let''s go back to the city first. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Lang waved to Zhang Xiu to go ahead.


    At this time, Sima Lang nodded to Sima Yi and led Zhang Xiu forward. Although Sima Lang himself held the official position of prefect of a county, he was also quite prominent. But Sima Lang knows better that Sima Yi is with Zhang Xiu. As a main memory of Zhang Xiu, his future is more prominent.


    After all, he is a close minister.


    With Zhang Xiu, there are many advantages and disadvantages.


    A group of people into the city, straight to the sheriff''s house.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu sat on the throne and looked around at the crowd. Her eyes finally fell on Sima Lang and said in a deep voice, "Boda, you don''t have to report the rest. Now let''s talk about one thing. How are you going to face this year''s drought in Hongnong county? "Sima Lang replied, "I have informed the county magistrate to dig wells to store water. In addition, large-scale dredging of ditches was carried out to divert water from the river to all sides, so as to prevent water shortage in all counties. "


    "In the current situation, I don''t know when the drought will stop. This year''s grain harvest is expected to be very poor. Even if the water is diverted from the river, the crops will not be able to defend the city. "


    "Under this premise, there may be a big turbulence in the grain price this year. He has already started to purchase grain and put it into the granary of Hongnong County, so as to cope with the turbulent grain prices and ensure the stability of grain prices. "


    Sima Lang gave a general description and then elaborated on the measures.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "as the saying goes, if people are not far sighted, they must have immediate worries. In today''s situation, we must make a long-term plan. The longer the drought lasts, the stronger the subsequent flood and waterlogging will be. We must make adequate preparations. "


    Sima Lang said: "my Lord has told me that I will keep my humble position in mind and carry it out exactly."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there are soldiers from outside the hall to enter quickly.


    The soldier rushed into the hall and reported: "I''d like to report to your majesty, there''s a good news in Xin''an County."


    "Good news?"


    Sima Lang was surprised to hear that.


    Today''s Hongnong County, there is no war, how suddenly there was a victory and so on.


    Sima Lang didn''t understand. He immediately took the letter and waved the soldiers back. He didn''t look it up immediately, but Zhang Xiu was curious and said, "since it''s a good news from below, you can have a look."


    "Here it is


    Sima Lang opened the letter.


    After reading it, he looked a little strange. He handed the letter to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, the message in the letter is about Huang Tiandao. The magistrate of Xin''an County said that Huang Tiandao bewitched the people and besieged the county government. Therefore, he mobilized soldiers to suppress Huang Tiandao and killed 365 demons of Huang Tiandao. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    He lowered his head and examined the message.


    It''s no ordinary thing to attack Tianya. According to previous information, huangtiandao is the border area between Henan and Hongnong. Xin''an County is located on the border, adjacent to Luoyang. It is normal to have huangtiandao.


    However, Huang Tiandao went so far as to make a public disturbance, which is simply frightening. We should know that Zhang Xiu governed Guanzhong, worked hard, and reduced taxes.


    The life of the people is good.


    But all of a sudden, Huang Tiandao made trouble, and even gathered people to attack the county government.


    Is that possible?


    When Zhang Xiu thinks about the seriousness of things, she thinks more about whether things are possible? He is not a man who sits high in the Ninth Heaven, nor is he a man who does not care about the people''s life or death and does not understand their sufferings.


    Zhang Xiu climbed up from the bottom, but also through the later generations, throughout the history books, know all kinds of things.


    The most important thing is that Hongnong county has always been peaceful.


    Even if there is Huang Tiandao, there is no great chaos in Guanzhong. Under normal circumstances, if Huang Tiandao wants to cause chaos, he will have a chance only when there is a complete drought and turbulence in Guanzhong.


    Now that she''s making trouble, she''s looking for a dead end.


    so Zhang Xiu is suspicious.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the officials in the hall, thought about it in her heart, and then said, "if Huang Tiandao is in trouble, he should be rewarded. You can arrange a reward for this, Boda


    "Here it is


    Sima Lang immediately responded.


    The rest praised Zhang Xiu''s wisdom.


    Just Zhang Xiu''s heart, but there are doubts. After hearing all these things, he asked all the officials of Hongnong county to step down, leaving only Sima Lang, Sima Yi and others. Zhang Xiu said, "Boda, what do you think about Huang Tiandao in Xin''an County?"

 Chapter 597

    Sima Lang immediately understood Zhang Xiu''s inquiry. Previously, the reason why Zhang Xiu did not ask and agreed to the award was that there were too many people and too many mouths. Once Zhang Xiu expressed her doubts, it was very likely that there would be rumors.


    After thinking about it, Sima Lang replied, "does the Lord think that the news about the killing of Huang Tiandao in Xin''an County is false?"


    "It''s possible!"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what do you think?"


    Sima Lang replied, "the magistrate of Xin''an County is called Xun Si. This person comes from the Xunzi family in Yingchuan. Although he is not the lineage of the Xunzi family, he is also a member of the Xunzi family. "I have the ability to promote myself."


    After a pause, Sima Lang continued: "when he was in charge of Xin''an County, the government was in harmony with the people, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. He is a man of considerable ability. Such a man will not lie about military intelligence. "


    "It is his ability that makes him suspicious."


    Seeing that his elder brother could not find out the problem, Sima Yi sighed in his heart and explained: "since Xun Si is so capable, the government of Xin''an County under his rule is harmonious and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Under such a premise, even if there is a severe drought, how can Huang Tiandao suddenly attack the official yamen? "


    "Huang Tiandao has no support from the common people, no believers, what strength does he have?"


    "In the final analysis, the supernatural organizations like Huang Tiandao rely on the people''s dissatisfaction with the government to gather believers. Just like the old Taiping Road. "


    Sima Yi said: "Huang Tiandao appeared in Xin''an County without any reason, and then attacked the government. This is suspicious. It''s even more suspicious that he killed more than 300 Huang Tiandao thieves in one go. "


    After Sima Lang heard this, he fell into silence. He didn''t believe the person he was promoted to, and it turned out to be a lie. If it''s a lie, what''s the matter with these 300 people?


    The situation is complicated.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you still praise Xun Si. I''m afraid there are some problems in today''s Hongnong county. You still do your business, Huang Tiandao''s business, leave it to me. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Lang answered directly.


    He still believed in Xun Si, but he didn''t want to believe that Xun Si would lie.


    After arranging Xun Si''s affairs, Zhang Xiu stayed in Hongnong County for one day, then set out again, all the way west, straight to Xin''an County. Along the way, Zhang Xiu arranged for the royal guards of Wang Yue to inquire about the news.


    Be sure to find out the situation before Zhang Xiu arrives.


    All the way to the county, there is no trouble, there is no so-called huangtiandao. Such a situation further confirms that Huang Tiandao has a problem. It''s impossible for a supernatural organization like Huang Tiandao to pass around in only one place.


    Although it is still dry along the way, the people''s life is still passable. After all, the weather was good all year round last year, the people had a good harvest and some surplus food at home. Even if there is a drought, the government is also providing relief and diverting water, so it can survive.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu is more and more suspicious of the so-called Xun Si''s killing more than 300 people of Huang Tiandao. All parts of the country are living and working in peace and contentment. How did Huang Tiandao come out?


    When Zhang Xiu was on the way, she received a message from the royal guards. Zhang Xiu looks at the letter in her hand, but her expression is getting colder and colder.


    This scene surprised Sima Yi.


    Something''s wrong!


    This was Sima Yi''s first feeling. He immediately asked, "Lord, what''s the matter?"


    "See for yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu hands the letter to Sima Yi, and her eyes are hard to hide.


    Sima Yi took over and quickly browsed. When he finished, he was shocked. Unexpectedly, the situation in Xin''an County turned out to be like this. Xun Si instigated everything.


    Huang Tiandao does exist.


    After the drought, there were preachers in Xin''an County, intending to attract believers.


    In fact, not many people believe in it.


    On the contrary, after the drought, some poor people in Xin''an County gathered around the county government, about 300 people. These people look for Xun Si, hoping that Xun Si can give them a way to live. However, Xuns directly mobilized soldiers to suppress and arrest all these people.


    On the spot, Xun Si didn''t kill anyone.


    But now it seems that Xun Si must have killed all the three hundred poor people. In particular, Xunsi also arrested Huang Tiandao in Xin''an County and killed a few of Huang Tiandao''s people.


    Everything is planted on Huang Tiandao.


    In the end, not only the common people were killed, but also they were reduced to Xun Si''s tools to ask for help. It can be said that even if he is dead, he will be used by Xuns.


    Sima Yi took a deep breath and said, "Lord, Xun Si is so hateful that he deserves to die. But it''s a big deal. What are you going to do with Xuns? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "next, we hide our tracks and rush to Xin''an County secretly. Xun Si dares to commit such a crime and kill Liang. I don''t know if there is anyone behind him? If there is no one, it has no influence. If Xun Si''s back is actually someone, our rash going is tantamount to frightening the snake. "Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    For Huang Tiandao, Zhang Xiu is very alert. Such a ghost organization, especially Huang Tiandao and Taiping Dao, is not much different. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu subconsciously believes that Huang Tiandao intends to make trouble.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is very cautious.


    Zhang Xiu and his party were on their way quickly.


    At the end of June, Zhang Xiu quietly entered Xin''an County. So far, it hasn''t rained, and the drought is still going on. In the fields, the land has dried up, the ponds have dried up, and the ground has cracked.


    All the seedlings are dry.


    At this time, the focus is no longer to protect the grain planted, but to ensure drinking water for people and animals.


    Everyone, we need to survive.


    Zhang Xiu also obviously felt the hardship of life. Especially after entering Xin''an County, Zhang Xiu found that people seldom dig wells to store water, and even no ditches to draw water from the river.


    As a sheriff, Sima Lang had already carried out the order issued by Chang''an, requiring all counties to build ditches to divert water from the river, and even required the people to dig wells to collect water and store water, so as to pass the disaster years.


    But in Xin''an County, there are few.


    Is this the official?


    Zhang Xiuyue went to the county seat of Xin''an County, and his face became more and more gloomy.


    Sima Yi follows Zhang Xiu and obviously feels that Zhang Xiu''s anger is surging. In his heart, he even secretly scolded his elder brother, appointed officials, and didn''t know the following situation, so that there was such a mess.


    Fortunately, the same situation did not appear in the other counties. If this is the case in all the other counties, Sima Lang must have been planted.


    When arriving in the county, Zhang Xiu and his party quietly entered and found an inn in the city to have a rest.


    In the room, people take their seats.


    Sima Yi looked at Zhang Xiu and asked, "Lord, how can we break the situation now? I''m afraid it''s going to frighten the snake if you directly tell me your identity. "


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and said in a deep voice: "it''s OK, there are royal guards here."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, mobilize the royal guards under your command. I''ll give you a day to bring Xuns to the inn before midnight tonight. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded directly.


    For the royal guards, it''s not difficult to capture Xun Si secretly.


    Zhang Xiu arranges to arrest Xun Si. Instead of staying in the inn, she takes Sima Yi around the city and inquires about Xun Si''s official voice.

 Chapter 598

    A person''s conduct, the most direct and convenient way is to ask himself, through his speech and behavior, can have a general judgment. However, some people are cunning and don''t show their appearance. It''s not easy to ask what they think.


    To go around a little bit is to ask the people around to get to know something.


    Through visiting and inquiring, Zhang Xiu found out the details of Xun Si in a short time.


    He looked colder and colder.


    Xun Si, a man, is very good at drilling camp, and is more good at attracting people. During his short time in office, he made friends with many dignitaries. Xun Si was very strict with the people at the bottom.


    In particular, the poorest people were expelled from the county by Xun Si and were not allowed to live in the city.


    This also forms the surface scenery of Xin''an County. In fact, there are still many poor people in Xin''an County, and their situation has never been alleviated.


    When the drought hit, these poor people came out in the hope that Xun Si would give them a way to live. But in the end, they not only lost their way, but also became Xun Si''s means of leading the work.


    Most importantly, although there was Huang Tiandao before, there were not many Huang Tiandao people and there was no momentum.


    Huang Tiandao is insignificant.


    Huang Tiandao''s people were all slaughtered.


    The notice issued by the government is that Huang Tiandao bewitches people and even gathers people to revolt. Xun Si ran the poor people to the county government and asked him to give them a way out. It was all on Huang Tiandao. In this way, the poor people gathered in the county government should be killed.


    After the visit, Zhang Xiu went back to the Inn and waited for the news.


    County government, in the study.


    A middle-aged scholar in his thirties, nearly forty years old, was sitting in a black robe.


    This man wore a long crown, handsome, rather free and easy.


    He is Xun Si.


    Below Xun Si sat a scholar in his early thirties.


    His name was Meng Yao, a counselor of Xun Si.


    Xun Si''s face, with a bright smile, said slowly: "Mr. Meng, I just got the news, Zhang Xiu personally went to Hongnong county to inspect the drought."


    "As it happens, the news that I beheaded three hundred Huang Tiandao thieves in the newspaper was praised by Zhang Taiwei. On the spot, he ordered Sima Lang to reward me. When the news is reported, you worry about this, worry about that, and worry about problems. "


    "But now?"


    "The present situation is very good for me. It was a very difficult day for the people, but it was a chance for me to be promoted. "


    Xun Si zhengse said: "this time, I got into the eyes of Zhang Taiwei. If I accumulate more merits, I can get rid of Xin''an County and strive for a better county magistrate. Or, it would be better to be a magistrate in Hongnong county. "


    Hongnong county is the seat of Hongnong county.


    The rank of county magistrate is larger than other counties in Hongnong county.


    Meng Yao said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Xunzi continued: "this man, he is so brave, he is so hungry. When Zhang Taiwei was young, he took charge of Guanzhong, even Liangzhou. What he relied on was to dare to fight and do. Although I can''t compare with him, at least I have to have some thoughts and ambitions, don''t I? Otherwise, it''s different from salted fish. "


    Meng Yao said: "adults have to be careful. In case Zhang Xiu comes to Xin''an County?"


    "Not necessarily!"


    Xun Si shook his head and said, "Zhang Taiwei is a man of great powers. He went to Hongnong County once. After hearing what Sima Taishou said about Hongnong County, what else did he do in Xin''an County. In my opinion, there can be no other things


    Meng Yao also nodded.


    I hope that''s what Xuns said.


    Xun Si''s words changed and he said, "the matter of Huang Tiandao has come to an end for the time being. Don''t get involved in Luoyang. Now I''m going to meet you in Qingyu Pavilion. Many of the big clan leaders in Xin''an County are waiting for me. "


    Meng Yao said: "you should be careful when you unite with many big families in Xin''an County. Zhang Taiwei is more taboo about these. If the news gets out, I''m afraid it''s not good for adults. "


    "No harm!"


    Xun Si said: "Xin''an County is adjacent to Yin of Henan Province. The emperor of Tiangao is far away. Who will come to Xin''an County? Who cares about everything in Xin''an County. Mr. Meng, you stay at the county government. Keep the situation stable. I''ll go now. I have to go earlier. Otherwise, the beauties in Qingyu Pavilion will be selected again, leaving only some crooked melons and dates. "


    "Here it is


    Meng Yao should bow his hand.


    Xun Si stood up, changed his clothes, took a carriage, and went out of the county government to Qingyu Pavilion.


    Qingyu Pavilion is the brothel of Xin''an County.


    People come and go, it''s very lively.


    After all, in Xin''an County, only Qing Yuge has the strongest relationship with many big families. Even Xun Si, the head of the county, could not be too presumptuous when he arrived at the Qingyu Pavilion.


    As soon as Xun Si entered, someone came up and led him to the second floor.


    This is a familiar road.After all, Xun Si didn''t come to Qingyu Pavilion once or twice. He had been used to it for a long time.


    He entered the elegant room of Jiazi on the second floor and sat down. There were three patriarchs of big families in Xin''an County. They were all 40-50-year-old people and experienced old people.


    Before Xuns came, they all arrived first.


    Xun Si saw the crowd and said, "you are very polite. I have a little delay. Please forgive me. I don''t have to say. I''ll give myself three drinks. I''ll do it first. "


    With that, Xun Si picked up the wine bottle and had three cups of wine in a row.


    He is never drunk.


    After three glasses of wine in a row, it was not affected at all.


    After Xun Si finished, he turned his eyes, looked at the crowd again, and said, "I don''t know if you invited me. What''s the matter?"


    "Xun county magistrate, it''s true."


    Among the leaders, the oldest one, about 50 years old, took the lead in saying: "we will not treat xunxi magistrate unfairly, let alone make it difficult for him to deal with this matter. We just need xunxi magistrate to nod his head."


    His name is Bao Ming, the head of the Bao family in Xin''an County.


    Xun Si stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "what is it, but it doesn''t matter."


    Bao Ming said in a deep voice: "nowadays, drought is becoming more and more serious in Xin''an County. A few days ago, Xun county magistrate got the order of Chang''an and bought a large quantity of grain at a low price and stored it in the county government''s storehouse. "


    "This batch of grain, as far as I know, is quite a lot."


    "After a discussion, the three of us hope to buy grain from the county government at the current market price. Today''s market price is more than double that of the grain purchased by Xun county magistrate in the past. "


    Bao Ming said: "in this way alone, Xun county magistrate can earn countless money."


    "And then?"


    Xun Si narrowed his eyes and asked. He is not willing to be satisfied with the status quo. The grain stored in the Treasury can continue to stay without worrying about no market.


    Now it''s sold to three families. Although it can earn money, it can''t meet his requirements. If there is no advantage, he will not agree. What''s more, the grain purchased is used for disaster relief and food price stabilization.


    Bao Ming said, "as long as we buy grain from the government treasury, the net profit we earn from selling it will be divided into 1.5% to the county magistrate of Xun. We have four families, including the magistrate of Xun county. Without a single effort, the magistrate of Xun County accounts for 15% of the interests. This is our greatest sincerity. "


    "No problem!"


    Xun Si said with a smile: "when Mr. Bao opened his mouth, what else can I say. Even if you don''t give me benefits, I have to sell food in order to make friends with Mr. Bao. "


    Bao Ming said with a smile: "Xun county magistrate upholds justice."


    his heart is Tucao, if there is not enough advantage, Xun can not make complaints about selling food.


    Xun Si is a man who pursues profit.

 Chapter 599

    Xun Si laughed and said, "you guys, I''m always good. I''m good. Everyone is good. Good for everyone. Of course, I am an official. I get more official voice, and you can get more. This is my point of view, right? "


    "Yes


    Bao Ming nodded.


    The rest of them agreed.


    It is said that there are people in the court who are good officials and Xun Si who are good officials. They can make a lot of money.


    For example, the government has to dig ditches.


    It doesn''t need Xuns to come out in person, it just needs the government to pay for it, and then they can contract it, and it can go on.


    For example, the government wants to provide disaster relief.


    There is no need for Xuns to come out in person, just Xuns to give them the food and let them deal with it.


    In short, we are mutually beneficial.


    Xun Si said in a deep voice: "before, I relied on you to support Huang Tiandao in Luoyang, even let Huang Tiandao enter Xin''an County. I''ll take advantage of the trouble caused by the common people, and you''ll let me do the same for Huang Tiandao. "


    "I have already won Zhang Taiwei''s commendation for this matter when I played it to Sima Taishou. My goal is to serve as the county magistrate of Hongnong county and go further. "


    "You need to do something about these things, dredge up some relations and shout for me. Of course, if I can be transferred to Chang''an directly, it will be better. "


    Xun Si said: "I am promoted, you can also get more benefits, can''t you?"


    "That''s true!"


    Bao Ming nodded.


    As the successor of the three families, he said, "don''t worry, county magistrate Xun. I don''t mind your request. In fact, we would like you to be the prefect of Hanoi county and abolish Hu Zhao''s policy of becoming a scholar. Hu Zhao started his career to win a scholar. It''s clear that he wanted to attack us. It''s really hateful. "


    Xuns replied, "if I can, I''ll do it myself. I also know something about how to start a successful career. Although Hu Zhao promoted it, in fact, it was Zhang Taiwei who supported it. "


    "It''s definitely not good to fight head on."


    "I advise you that if you want to shake this matter, you can only do it from the side. The simplest truth is that, for example, if there is a bit of trouble when starting a scholar''s career, it means that the government has appointed people to pour dirty water on the government, which is enough to destroy the scholar''s career. "


    Xuns gave some advice.


    He is very good at this kind of thing. After all, he is a man of mixed government.


    Bao Ming said, "what Xun county magistrate said is true."


    "Come on, come on, don''t just talk, don''t drink. Here, I salute you Xun Si took the wine bottle in front of him, worshipped Bao Ming and drank it.


    Bao Ming, three people, responded one by one.


    Four people in the elegant room, you come and I go to toast, the atmosphere is very warm.


    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    Xun Si had a drink, and then he got up and said, "go on, let me go out." He got up and went straight out of the cottage.


    As Xuns walked out, someone followed. After Xun Si''s urination, as soon as he walked out of the hut, he walked out alone behind him and knocked Xun Si unconscious when his hand fell. Then someone came out and quickly took Xun Si away.


    At this time, someone came back to the elegant room and looked at Bao Ming and others.


    This is the dress of the Chamberlain of Qingyu Pavilion.


    When he saw some people, he didn''t say much. He only said that Xun Si wanted to leave in advance, and then the servant left.


    It''s not unusual for Xuns to leave.


    After all, Xuns was a magistrate.


    Bao Ming three people, still singing and dancing constantly, one by one enjoy. Xun Si, who was knocked unconscious, was quickly sent out of Qingyu Pavilion and sent to the inn where Zhang Xiu was.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xun Si, who fell to the ground and still fainted, and said, "wake him up!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to take water and sprinkle it on Xun Si''s face. Xun Si woke up at once. He looked around, saw Zhang Xiu, and the attendant in the room, and said in a loud voice: "who are you? I''m the magistrate of Xin''an County. Are you impatient to deal with me? Let me go, or you will regret it. "


    Zhang Xiu''s hatred of Xun Si is incomparable now.


    This is a scum.


    Especially after hearing the report from the royal guards, Xun Si often went in and out of Qingyu Pavilion, and indulged in wine and sex with the people of various families. Such a person, Zhang Xiu is not only disgusted, more eager to kill soon.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and went to Xun Si''s body. She kicked her feet out.


    "Pa! Bang


    Xun Si screamed with a dull voice.


    He is a scholar.


    He had ever been beaten like this, so as soon as he was cleaned up by Zhang Xiu, he immediately screamed.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you call again, you will be killed!"


    Finish saying, Zhang Xiu kicked a few feet again. A few feet fell, Xun Si''s face was very red, and his eyes were even more frightened. He suddenly thought of a possibility.kidnap!


    It must have been kidnapped by the kidnappers.


    Xun Si guldong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "hero, hero, please let me go. You want money, I have plenty. No matter what your request is, I can satisfy you. "


    "I don''t want money!"


    Zhang Xiu replied coldly. After he sat down, he said in a deep voice: "now, there are several things to ask you. You answer honestly, so as not to suffer from skin and flesh. "


    "Yes, yes, I cooperate."


    Xun Si was kicked a few times, feel oneself whole body bone, as if want to fall apart.


    It''s very hard.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you killed the people who went to the county yamen for help, and slandered them as the thieves of Huang Tiandao. Is it true that you killed Liang and made bold contributions?"


    "No!"


    Xuns answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu snorted: "it seems that you are still dishonest. Wang Yue, cut off his left thumb. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to come forward immediately.


    "Don''t, don''t, don''t touch me. I''m willing to say


    As soon as Xun Si heard that he wanted to cut off his left thumb, he immediately chose to open his mouth. He is in good health, better than anything. Once the thumb of his left hand is incomplete, he becomes disabled and affects his vision. Even if his limbs are incomplete, his official career may be ruined.


    Zhang Xiu stopped: "you say!"


    Xunzi said: "yes, I am killing Liang and taking credit. It is Huang Tiandao who kills people and slanders them. But such a thing is not what I am willing to do, it is what Bao Ming and others in Xin''an County have encouraged, and it is also supported by the Bao family. It''s their encouragement and coercion, which has nothing to do with me. If I don''t agree, they will hold me up and deal with me. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed when she heard Bao Ming.


    In the afternoon, the news that the royal guards sent back to Xin''an County included the news about the Bao family. There are Bao family, Fang family and Guo family in Xin''an County.


    Such news is well known.


    Zhang Xiu said, "well, what about Huang Tiandao?"


    Xunzi said: "Huang Tiandao was created by Bao family, Fang family and Guo family, in order to create rumors and influence. But when people petitioned, I took advantage of the situation and arrested them as thieves of Huang Tiandao. In this way, he asked for credit from the governor of Sima, intending to be promoted. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face was covered with cool colors.


    The appearance of Huang Tiandao is really man-made, and it is made by everyone in Xin''an County.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "can there be influence behind the three families?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Xun Si shook his head and replied that he was only limited to the cooperation with the three families, which was the call of interests.


    For the rest, I didn''t make many friends.


    Xun Si continued: "I have told you the truth, hero. Injustice has its head, debt has its owner. If you want revenge, you''ll go to the Bao family and the other three families. This has nothing to do with me. "


    He constantly shirks responsibility.


    At this time, Xuns didn''t want to admit his mistake. Because once he admits his mistake, he becomes the real murderer.


    Zhang Xiu said coldly, "I''m not a hero, and I''m not here for revenge. I''m Zhang Xiu. I''m here to check on you. "


    "Ah


    Xun Si hears and exclaims.


    Zhang Xiu is here to deal with him?


    It''s over!


    Xun Si slumped down on the ground, no more momentum. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu, as a Taiwei, had come to Xin''an County to deal with him.


    Now that Zhang Xiu knows the detailed information, he has no chance to turn over.

 Chapter 600

    Zhang Xiu''s face was extremely sharp, and said: "you said that you killed the people under the support of Bao Ming and others, and killed Liang FeiGong. You don''t have any problems with yourself? "


    "Yes, I have a problem!"


    Xun Si answers directly, he can''t say he has no problem. Previously said so much, and Zhang Xiu specially came to him, obviously was Zhang Xiu stare at. At this time, we can only admit part of our crimes and try to avoid the biggest sin.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your problem?"


    Xun Si replied: "tell Taiwei that I was bewitched by the Bao family and other three families, slaughtering the people and causing great harm to the people. I''m guilty. Please punish me. "


    "Your sin is more than that!"


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "according to our investigation, you have been working together in Xin''an County for a short time, eliminating dissidents, wantonly setting up officials in Xin''an County, and colluding with the big families in Xin''an County. You, damn it


    Brush!


    Xun Si''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Xun Si''s eyes were rolling, and he said once again, "Mr. Tai Wei, I''m willing to make contributions, I''m willing to report. The Bao family, the Fang family and the Guo family are abominable. During their stay in Xin''an County, they bid up grain prices. Taiwei, these people should be killed. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you don''t have to remind me. I will arrange it."


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The soldier enters, Zhang Xiu way: "detain Xun Si in inn."


    The soldiers tied up Xun Si''s hands and feet, blocked Xun Si''s mouth, and carried him down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "are Wang Yue, Bao Ming and others still in Qingyu pavilion?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "immediately arrange people to send orders to the guards outside the city, and order them to enter the city immediately and seal up the Bao family, Fang family and Guo family. In addition, you''ll also order the royal guards of Xin''an County to go with me to Qingyu Pavilion and take Bao Ming


    Zhang Xiu went out with a bodyguard.


    The number of bodyguards around Zhang Xiu is not many, only 300. But these three hundred men are the absolute elite of the army, the elite of the elite, all of them can be regarded as ten.


    With this group of soldiers, Zhang Xiu is safe.


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue went to arrange it immediately.


    After a while, Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue left the inn together and went to the direction of Qingyu Pavilion.


    It''s not far from here to Qingyu Pavilion.


    Zhang Xiu''s side at first only Wang Yue, Shi a and others, but six or seven people. But after leaving the inn, there were many royal guards gathering along the way, one by one energetic and following Wang Yue.


    These are the royal guards in Xin''an County.


    Now he got the order of Wang Yue, and all the people gathered together. When he arrived at Qingyu Pavilion, the number of royal guards behind Wang Yue was more than 30. In Xin''an County alone, there are more than 30 royal guards all over the country, which is a huge force.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu and others arrived at the gate of Qing Yu Pavilion, someone came forward with the intention of blocking them. But as soon as the people of Qing jade Pavilion came out, some soldiers came forward and put a sword on each other''s neck.


    The guards of Qingyu Pavilion dare not act rashly.


    in Xin''an County, Qingyu Pavilion is a relatively detached place, because it is the place of GouLan. Even if there are conflicts, they all give Qing Yu Pavilion three parts of face. After all, they have to show their faces in front of the girls in Qing Yu Pavilion, don''t they?


    Now, Zhang Xiu is directly with people into.


    "Young master, what are you doing?"


    The manager of Qingyu Pavilion came directly to Zhang Xiu. He saw Zhang Xiu''s extraordinary, the intention accosted inquires. But before he got close to Zhang Xiu, he was controlled by a royal guard and couldn''t move any more. Once there was another rash move, the blade on his neck was enough to cut his neck.


    "This is a private place. How can you break into it?"


    "You can''t do that!"


    The shopkeeper of Qingyu Pavilion kept shouting, and his face was very angry.


    Even if he yells anger, it doesn''t help. In a chaotic situation, Zhang Xiu and his party ascended the second floor to the door of the elegant room.


    With a wave, Zhang Xiu steps forward and kicks the royal guards.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    In a flash, the door collapsed and there was a panic inside.


    Zhang Xiu along to see in the past, eyebrows also show a trace of accident. Bao Ming, the three old guys, are all gnawing at the singer in their arms. There are also singers dancing inside, which is a scene of extravagance.


    "Who are you? Are you impatient to break in without permission? "


    Seeing this, Bao Ming roared.


    Immediately, Bao Ming roared: "come on, come on. Are all the people in Qingyu Pavilion dead? I let someone break into my elegant room. What do you eat in Qingyu pavilion? "


    He was very angry.


    In front of countless people, people disturb good things, especially such a private thing.What is his face?


    However, when Bao Ming was allowed to roar, no one came in. Instead, Zhang Xiu strode into the room and said, "a group of moths only know how to extort people''s fat and cream, only know how to suck people''s hard work. It''s interesting that you are playing this tune


    "Who are you?"


    Bao Ming clenched his teeth and roared angrily.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "who am I? I''m Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    For a moment, Bao Ming didn''t regard Zhang Xiu as a great Han Taiwei. He said directly, "I don''t care whether you are Zhang Xiu, Li Xiu or Zhao Xiu. You break into this room at random. I''m Bao Ming first. I won''t spare you. If you offend the Bao family, the Guo family and the Fang family, you are doomed. Boy, you kneel down to admit your mistake and surrender. I can consider sparing you. "


    At this time, Bao Ming is still on airs. His hand had been pulled back from the singer''s chest, and he put it in front of him, with a cold look in his eyes and a look of disdain.


    The door of the room was knocked open by Zhang Xiu''s people. He had no face. He wanted to make Zhang Xiu lose face.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "no one in Guanzhong dares to speak to me like this. Even Xun Si, the magistrate of Xin''an County, did not dare to do so. You, Bao Ming, have the courage to form Huang Tiandao. "


    My official!


    These two words, like a sword, pierced Bao Ming''s heart. He suddenly thought of the meaning of Zhang Xiu. His heart was hanging in the air, and his face was full of panic.


    It''s over!


    This is Taiwei Zhang Xiu.


    Guo Yu is the head of the Guo family, and Fang Han is the head of the Fang family.


    Both of them are old people, and they are used to wind and waves. But this time I heard Zhang Xiu''s words, whether it was Guo Yu or Fang Han, the face of vicissitudes showed a look of panic, and I was scared.


    In particular, the fact that they formed Huang Tiandao was exposed.


    You know, it''s very secret that the three families formed Huang Tiandao. In fact, the original intention of Huang Tiandao''s formation is not to make trouble, but to take advantage of the opportunity to seek countless benefits.


    In order to cooperate with Xun Si, Huang Tiandao was pushed out and let Xun Si kill him.


    But now, the news was discovered by Zhang Xiu.


    "Plop!"


    Guo Yu knelt down directly to admit his advice and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Taiwei, my Guo family has not made a big mistake. Although we say that we set up Huang Tiandao, in fact, it is to appease the people. "


    "Can I believe you?"


    Zhang Xiu walks up to Guo Yu and kicks out. His foot fell on Guo Yu. Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Guo Yu''s body fell on the ground.


    In the face of Guo Yu, Zhang Xiu didn''t leave a hand.


    Zhang Xiu won''t let go of anyone who intends to make war money and profit.


    What should be killed, kill all!


    This is Zhang Xiu''s attitude.

 Chapter 601

    Guo Yu was originally a counsellor, but he was directly kicked to the ground, and he was very embarrassed. He already wants to admit advice, but Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept it, so Guo Yu looks at Bao Ming and shakes his head slightly.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu will not let them go.


    Seeing this, Bao Ming stood up, gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to kill everything


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''m going to kill you all. What can you do for me?"


    Bao Ming snorted and replied, "my Bao family, Guo Jia''s and Fang''s family are in Xin''an County. They don''t want to be slaughtered. If you want to kill Zhang Xiu, we won''t wait to die. "


    After a pause, Bao Ming said again: "if you kill us, the three families will be desperate. Food prices, the government, and many other issues related to people''s livelihood will be in turmoil. Zhang Xiu, do you really want to exchange the lives of countless people in Xin''an County with us? "


    This is a direct threat.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised a sneer at the corner of her mouth and even more disdained, saying: "unfortunately, it''s just your expectation. You can''t do that. "


    Guo Yu stood up, endured the pain of the body, said: "Zhang Xiu, you will regret it."


    "Regret?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I never knew these two words. It''s you who should regret it. Do you know why I didn''t take you down when I came to this room, but talked nonsense with you to pass the time? "


    Bao Ming said, "why?"


    At this moment, Bao Ming''s heart sank and his face looked worried.


    Does Zhang Xiu still have the means?


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the reason is very simple. I''m waiting for my soldiers to take down your three families. Before I came to Qingyu Pavilion, I had already mobilized my relatives and guards to directly seal down the three families. "


    Brush!


    Bao Ming''s face changed greatly.


    Guo Yu and Fang Han also collapsed on the ground.


    It''s over!


    This time it''s over.


    When the family is taken by Zhang Xiu, they become rootless Ping, no longer have any strength. For the Bao family, Fang family and Guo family, on the one hand, it is their own strength, on the other hand, it is the intertwined strength.


    The most fundamental is our own strength.


    Once the family support is lost, even if the three families arrange people in the officialdom, and even if the family has strength in other places, it will not make a big wave.


    Bao Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, although our Bao family participated in the establishment of Huang Tiandao, they never harmed the people. Even, Huang Tiandao has been exterminated by Xun Si. It''s unreasonable for you to arrest us with Huang Tiandao. "


    "Do we need to reason when we catch you?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "if I want to catch you, I can catch you."


    Bao Ming said, "it''s reckless of you to do so. To do so is to trample on your own law. Zhang Xiu, the news that you are stupid about us is coming out, and there will certainly be turbulence in Guanzhong under your rule. "


    Fang Han and Guo Yu agreed one after another.


    They put all their hopes on Bao Ming. It depends on whether he can turn the tide. If Zhang Xiu can''t be threatened, Bao Ming can only rely on rules.


    Zhang Xiu said noncommittally, "so that you can know that Xun Si has been arrested and confessed to all kinds of things he committed. Xun Si and you can''t get through it. "


    Bao Ming has changed color again.


    At this moment, Bao Ming''s face was as deep as water, and his heart had completely sunk. He didn''t know what to do? There is no solution to the current situation.


    Xun si all fell, not to mention these people.


    Gudong!


    Bao Ming swallowed a mouthful of saliva and begged for mercy: "Zhang Taiwei, my three big families are willing to submit and obey Zhang Taiwei''s instructions. I only hope that Taiwei Zhang can raise his hand and give us a way to live. "


    "I give you a way to live, do you give the people a way to live?"


    Zhang Xiu''s voice rose slightly.


    In the words, there is a cold and fierce intention to kill. Zhang Xiu doesn''t like Bao''s family, which lives by sucking people''s blood. Such a big family should be destroyed.


    It''s hard to have a conscience if you don''t get rid of it.


    "Zhang Xiu, you devil!"


    Bao Ming was furious and rushed to Zhang Xiu. Just he just rushed to Zhang Xiu''s front, Zhang Xiu raised a leg then to kick out. Coincidentally, a footprint is on Bao Ming''s chest.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The next moment, Bao Ming flew out and fell to the ground.


    "Poof!"


    Bao Ming fell to the ground, only to feel a sweet throat, a mouthful of blood will spit out. He put his hands on the ground and wanted to stand up, but his hands didn''t have any strength, so he couldn''t stand up at all.


    He''s got a skeleton all over him. It''s like falling apart.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are the devil!"


    "You murderer."


    Bao Ming murmured to himself in a low voice, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.He is very worried about the safety of his family, but Bao Ming knows that once Zhang Xiu''s army is mobilized, the weak power of the family will not be able to stop Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Bao family, it''s over!


    Guo family and Fang family, it''s over!


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Bao Ming and said, "when you encroached on the common people, you didn''t think about the life of the common people. When you bid up the price of grain wantonly, you did not consider the life and death of the people. Now, when you are in trouble, you accuse me of being the devil. If I kill you, I will be the devil, then I will admit it. "


    There is no burden on killing the three families.


    If you don''t kill these people, I''m sorry to the people.


    Bao Ming, Guo Yu and Fang Han were all dejected and helpless.


    Time goes by little.


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came from the stairs.


    Not long after, the soldiers ran to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Qi Wei, the Bao family, the Fang family and the Guo family have all won. All the three families were detained, and none of them escaped. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    He doesn''t have any good impression of the people of the three families. He wants to deal with them.


    "Put people in custody and go to the county government!"


    Zhang Xiu orders and turns to walk out of the elegant room. The soldiers escorted Bao Ming, Fang Han and Guo Yu down the second floor. At the same time, Zhang Xiu also ordered the soldiers of the inn to bring out the county magistrate Xun Si and escort him to the county government.


    In addition, all the people from the three families were detained in the county government.


    Everyone was arrested.


    After arriving at the county government, Zhang Xiu announced the disposal of Xun Si in front of countless people. Xun Si killed Liang recklessly, greedily, accepted bribes, colluded with merchants, and was killed on the spot.


    Bao Ming, Guo Yu and Fang Han founded Huang Tiandao with the intention of making trouble, which is also a local law. Among the three families, all the legitimate members of the three families were executed. The rest should be dismissed.


    The three families sealed up directly.


    As for the three families who were placed in the government, it was even simpler. Zhang Xiu didn''t even move the royal guards. She went on with the order to report and expose directly, and then some officials reported and exposed one after another, making a quick and thorough investigation.


    All the people from the three families were captured without even raising the waves.


    Zhang Xiu uprooted Xun Si, the new magistrate of Xin''an County, took over three families, seized countless crops and money, rushed into the Treasury, and re selected the new magistrate of Xin''an County.


    The new magistrate was Lin De, a assistant official in the county government.


    Originally, he was marginalized.


    Even if Lin De had not been a talented person, he would have been expelled from the county government.


    Lin De is familiar with the situation of Xin''an County, and he is a vested interest. After taking office, he will try his best to make a good impression on Zhang Xiu. So Zhang Xiu is not worried about what happened to Lin De. After reorganizing the officialdom of Xin''an County, Zhang Xiu didn''t stay. Instead, she left Xin''an County for Henan Province.


    Yin area in Henan Province is located on the border, not only with Cao Cao''s border, but also with Yuan Shao''s border, which is the most difficult to deal with and the most complex.

 Chapter 602

    After arriving in Henan Province, Zhang Xiu made an inspection tour. Compared with the drought in Guanzhong, Luoyang and other places under the active management of the government, it is better, there is no big trouble.


    Although it is close to the forces of all parties, there is no dispute. When Zhang Xiu saw that He''nan Yin was not in great trouble, she turned around and went to Hanoi county.


    Hanoi Prefecture is also facing severe drought.


    After arriving in huaixian County, Zhang Xiu met Hu Zhao, the prefect of Hanoi.


    In the study, the guest and host sit down.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "Kong Ming, what''s the drought like in Hanoi county?"


    Hu Zhao looked very calm and explained: "report back to my Lord. When he found that it had not rained for a long time, he had already sent orders to the county officials to prepare for the drought."


    "There are orders from Chang''an and funding support behind. The whole Hanoi county relies on bobbins to get water, irrigate it into ditches and flow it to all parts of the county. For the time being, there is no big problem for people and animals."


    "As for the seedlings in the field, we can only ensure that they are close to the water source, and the water and soil are flat and dense. We can''t take care of some remote places. "


    "Besides, the humble position has filled all the granaries. There is no shortage of grain in the granary of Hanoi Prefecture for the time being. Once the price of grain rises, humble officials will let the government sell grain to stabilize the price of grain. "


    Hu Zhao is very confident, said: "this year''s drought, although fierce, but humble will deal with this matter, will not make a big mess."


    "That''s good!"


    After hearing Hu Zhao''s words, Zhang Xiu smiles.


    In fact, both Sima Lang and Hu Zhao are capable people. As for Xun Si under Sima Lang''s command, that is a rare phenomenon, not everyone.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    He believed in Sima Lang, just as Zhang Xiu believed in Hu Zhao''s ability.


    In the face of drought, everyone will work hard to solve the current crisis.


    Hu Zhao changed his words and said in a deep voice: "in fact, it''s just the drought, I think it''s easy to solve. Natural disasters are easy to resist, but man-made disasters are not. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Hu Zhao replied: "nowadays, with the continuous drought, many people all over the world believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, and hope to pray for rain from some alchemists. I once met a village man who believed that the so-called sorcerer and alchemist used a six or seven-year-old girl to throw it into the river to sacrifice to Hebo, so as to let Hebo rain. "


    "If it''s not for my humble duty, I happen to meet her when I''m going around, and the little girl will die."


    "Such things happen one after another."


    Hu Zhao said: "in the aspect of sorcery, even if the government orders, it''s useless. It''s hard to cut off the flow of alchemists. Most of the alchemists, in particular, are for money. There are very few people who really ask for immortals. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    Eyes, but also a glimmer of dignified.


    Huang Tiandao is just supported by the three families. It''s easy to get rid of him.


    However, it is difficult to solve the problems of alchemists and warlocks.


    Because the area is too wide, not only in Guanzhong and Liangzhou under Zhang Xiu''s rule, but also in Jingzhou, Yanzhou, Jizhou and other places, but in every state in the world, there are innumerable alchemists, and there are innumerable alchemists who rely on the theory of gods and ghosts to fool people.


    It''s hard to stop.


    In fact, even in later generations, Zhang Xiu has seen the power of science. Under the scientific system, she can''t put an end to the theory of gods and monsters. Even dignitaries believe in gods and monsters, let alone in today''s era.


    This is a very difficult problem to solve.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Sima Yi and asked, "Zhong Da, do you have a solution?"


    "No!"


    Sima Yi shook her head.


    In fact, even Sima Yi himself was in awe of the alchemists.


    The vast majority of people do.


    Hu Zhao said: "Lord, after careful consideration of this matter, there is a solution."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to solve it?"


    Hu Zhao replied, "we can only get to the bottom of the matter, because there are real alchemists in this world. These people, focusing on the search for immortals, asked. As far as I know, Yu Ji and Zuo CI are real Taoist masters and real alchemists. If we can find such people and let them come forward to co-ordinate the alchemists in Guanzhong, the rest of them can be expelled. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s a good choice to find the people like Yu Ji and Zuo CI you said and let them submit to me. There is a certain possibility of such a person''s submission. I will settle this matter after I return to Chang''an. Because this is not a matter of one county, but a problem that exists all over the world. It is not easy to cure the disease. "


    Hu Zhao said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "what''s Yuan Shao doing in the north?"


    "No!"


    Hu Zhao replied: "Yuan Shao and Gong sun Zan in the north are in a stalemate for the time being. In particular, today''s Gongsun Zan expelled Yuan Shao''s troops from Youzhou. Yuan Shao now returned to Jizhou. But sun gongzan didn''t go after him. "Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Gongsun Zan now, that''s it. Before that, it was extremely difficult for us to get Gongsun Zan to send troops. If you want too much, you don''t have to ask for too much. "


    "How many days does the Lord intend to stay in Hanoi?" Hu asked


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ll leave today. I can rest assured that Hanoi county will be governed by you. Along the way, although the people are sad, at least all the people can live a normal life. I don''t want to say that I have to leave my hometown. "


    Hu Zhao said: "at present, it can only be maintained temporarily. More rain is needed. If it doesn''t rain, if it continues, it will be quite troublesome. "


    Zhang xiudao: "there''s no way. It depends on the mood of the master."


    Today''s situation, Zhang Xiu has no way, after all, there is no sign of rain in the short term. Zhang Xiu talked with Hu Zhao again. After having lunch at the prefect''s residence, she took a rest and left huaixian County for Hedong county.


    Drought also occurred in Hedong county and Zuo Fengyi. However, under the control of Fang Jun and Wang Yi, together with Chang''an, Xu Shu and others, they had already given orders, so they could control them for the time being and barely survive.


    Despite the continuous drought, the people are still not able to leave their homes.


    Along the way, Zhang Xiu is also paying attention to the situation in different places. She finds that many places have invited alchemists, and people everywhere have asked alchemists for rain, so that she can survive.


    But it never rains.


    At the beginning of July, Zhang Xiu went around and returned to Chang''an again.


    In July, although the weather is hot, but not in June, barely slow down a bit. However, the drought has been going on all the time. Up to now, it has never rained, which is quite troublesome.


    Fortunately, all over the country are providing disaster relief, suppressing food prices and stabilizing the situation.


    If there is no water diversion and no food price stabilization, the situation will be very bad. When Zhang Xiu arrived in Chang''an, ah Guli came to Chang''an with 20000 Qiang soldiers.


    When the Qiang soldiers arrived, Zhang Xiu was stationed in the military camp.


    First, we should establish a military system and allocate it according to the rest of the armed forces. All kinds of food and money are the same as the rest of the barracks. After a Guli was settled, Zhang Xiu was reading the disaster situation presented by various places in the mansion. Suddenly, a soldier came in and reported: "Taiwei, there is a man named Zuo Ci from outside the mansion. He claims that he has a way to solve the drought for the Lord."

 Chapter 603

    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose, and there was an unexpected look on her face.


    I didn''t expect that Zuo CI would come.


    Zuo Ci, a Taoist, is a famous alchemist in the world. When we talk about Zuo Ci, we have to talk about his disciple Ge Xuan. Today''s Ge Xuan is not well-known, but he is one of the four great masters of heaven.


    Zhang Xiu pondered Zuo Ci''s intention, but there was no delay. She said, "please!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers quit, they go to inform the police.


    After a while, Zuo CI strode in.


    Zuo Ci, who entered the hall, was dressed in a blue robe, holding the dust and wearing a lotus crown. He was filled with the smell of dust all over his body, and looked like an immortal.


    Zuo Ci''s age is in his early 40s, but he is well maintained and does not look old at all. Even in Zuo Ci''s body, there is the Confucian scholar''s elegant temperament, giving people a strong sense of scholarly.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Zuo CI is not simple.


    A great alchemist who can be famous all over the world has his own housekeeping skills.


    "I, Zuo Ci, have met Zhang Taiwei."


    Zuo Ci''s mouth was filled with a faint smile. He shook the white dust in his hand, which was a fairyland. The three long whiskers under his jaw are almost close to his chest. The breeze is gentle and the whiskers are shaking slowly, showing Zuo Ci''s dusty temperament.


    Zhang Xiu is also praised in her eyes.


    It is worthy of Zuo CI.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the important thing for Zuo Xianshi to come to Chang''an to see my official?"


    Zuo CI said, "I''m worried about Taiwei."


    Zhang Xiu asked: "I''m in the position of Taiwei. I''m in a high position. What worries can I have?"


    Zuo CI said slowly: "today''s Guanzhong, drought has been more than two months, people''s life is difficult. If it doesn''t rain in Guanzhong, it will be in chaos. Further, it can affect the governance of Zhang Taishou in Guanzhong. I can do what I want to do to make it rain


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not one or two people who say they can do it. People everywhere say they can pray for rain, but no one succeeds. Taoist Zuo said that he could pray for rain. I don''t know what powerful technique he has


    "There is."


    Zuo CI looked confident and said, "I''ve been successful recently. I''ve learned the skill of making money in an oil pan."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Zuo CI replied, "there''s no reason to say so. I''ll show it to Zhang Taishou immediately. How about that? Hearing is false, seeing is true, and you will believe it only when you really witness it. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "your one answer request, my official agreed."


    Zuo CI immediately put forward a request, Zhang Xiu agreed one by one. Next, Zuo CI turned to leave and went down to prepare.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting alone in the hall.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from outside the hall. But Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru entered together. Three facial expressions, there is a trace of joy, to Zhang Xiu salute before each seat.


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''m very glad to see you all, but what''s happened to celebrate?"


    Xu Shu replied, "my Lord, we three watched the sky at night and found that it was raining recently. The sky has changed and there are signs of rain. "


    "We even sent people to visit the local area and asked the old farmers who knew the weather. According to many experienced farmers, the weather has changed recently. "


    "In many places, there are signs of ants moving, or the ground showing signs of moisture returning, indicating that it is going to rain. After careful inference, we think that three days later, there must be rain. "


    Xu Shu said firmly: "at that time, the drought in Guanzhong will be resolved from then on."


    Zhang Xiu breathed quickly and asked, "are you sure?"


    "Sure!"


    Xu Shu nodded and answered.


    Jia Xu and Li Ru nodded in agreement. Both Jia Xu and Li Ru are sure that it will rain.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughs, and he immediately understands Zuo Ci''s intention. Now there is a sign that it is going to rain. It is not only his people who judge it, but also Zuo CI.


    So Zuo CI took the initiative to ask for rain.


    If you think about it, Zuo CI would have judged the celestial phenomena, and then prayed for rain, and he would answer every request. Isn''t it a manifestation of holiness? It can show Zuo Ci''s power and show his profound Taoism.


    What a deep routine!


    Zhang Xiu sneers. Zuo CI can''t escape from his palm this time.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said: "the drought lasts for several months. Once it rains, the rainfall will be very heavy. When you go back, be prepared to avoid causing disasters to the people after the heavy rain falls. "


    "Here it is


    Three people should go down together.


    As soon as Xu Shu''s words changed, he said, "Lord, when I came here, I heard that Zuo Ci, the alchemist, was visiting. Lord, you can''t trust such gods and monsters. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t worry. I have my own plan. I won''t be bewitched by Zuo CI. If people like Zuo CI can bewitch me, what else can they talk aboutWhen Xu Shu heard the speech, he was relieved.


    Just at this time, a soldier entered and reported: "Taiwei, Taoist priest Zuo said that everything was ready. Please come to the courtyard and witness his Daoism."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He looked at Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru and said, "Zuo CI is in front of me and wants to show his Taoist skills. According to him, this is what he just practiced successfully. Let''s go and have a look with me. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu three people answer together.


    They walked out of the yard together and came to the corner of the yard. They were surprised to see a big pot put up with oil in it.


    When Zuo CI saw that Zhang Xiu was coming and Xu Shu and others were following him, he didn''t care. He said, "Tai Wei, everything is ready. Taiwei, please watch carefully. The oil in the pot is just sent by your family. Taiwei can tell the truth. "


    Zhang Xiu saw the oil and the copper coin at the bottom of the pot. With a smile on her lips, she said, "the oil in the pot is true. How to cast the Dharma, Taoist Zuo just let it go. "


    Xu Shu asked: "Lord, what is this to do?"


    Before Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, Zuo CI took the initiative to say: "next, I will put firewood at the bottom of the pot to make the oil boil. Then, I put my hand into the rolling oil and took out the bottom copper coin. "


    "Hiss!"


    When Xu Shu heard the speech, he took a cool breath.


    "No way!"


    "It''s absolutely impossible!"


    "How can the body get into the rolling oil. In particular, once this kind of oil is poured on people, it will burn in an instant. "


    Xu Shu shook his head one after another.


    He was the first one who didn''t believe it, because it often happened in the battle of Chenglou. The boiling oil is poured down and drenched on people''s bodies. In an instant, the bloody meat is indistinct.


    Jia Xu also stroked his beard and said, "I also think it''s impossible. It''s too mysterious."


    Li Ru was curious.


    When Zuo CI heard Xu Shu''s words, he didn''t defend himself. He just said, "you think it''s impossible, because the Tao is not profound and has never met such a thing. When you show the Tao and Dharma, you will naturally know that there is heaven and there are people


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes with a smile in her mouth.


    Now he is watching Zuo CI jump up and down in front of him like a monkey. From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu did not express her opinions, because it was not the time to speak.


    Zuo CI looked around the crowd and ordered, "light up the fire!"


    Soldiers on one side, light the fire immediately.


    After the firewood is burned, the firewood is put into it one by one, which makes the fire more and more vigorous, and the temperature inside and outside the pot is also rising.


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru were all nervous.


    The three are well-informed, but at the moment, facing such a situation, they are still a little nervous.

 Chapter 604

    The fire continued to burn, and soon the pot began to boil.


    Zuo CI is reciting in the mouth, in the hand also unceasingly gesticulates. It''s like casting a spell in the dust.


    Everyone, keep an eye on Zuo CI.


    After talking for a while, Zuo Cifu put his hand in his waist and stretched out his right hand to reach into the oil pan. At this time, Zhang Xiu suddenly opened her mouth and said, "wait a minute!"


    Zuo CI said with a smile: "Zhang Taiwei, I chose this voluntarily. No wonder you. Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with Zhang Taiwei. You don''t have to stop him. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "master Zuo, I''m not trying to stop you."


    Zuo CI asked, "then why?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the reason why I''m blocking you is that I hope you don''t want to make money for the time being. If you wait a little longer, Taoist priest Zuo will show his immortal method again


    Zuo CI felt a thump in his heart.


    He turned his head and looked at Zhang Xiu beside his eyes, frowning slightly.


    What''s going on?


    Why does Zhang Xiu suddenly stop? It''s just that Zhang Xiu doesn''t say anything, just stands aside. This situation raised a bad feeling in Zuo Ci''s heart.


    He is the one who has developed this technique and knows its advantages and disadvantages. In the case of Zhang Xiu''s interference, he was worried.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t speak, Zuo CI can''t reach down.


    Time, little by little.


    Standing in front of the iron pot, Zuo Ci''s forehead was permeated with fine beads of sweat. Even on his back, he was already sweating and wet his clothes.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Taoist priest Zuo, your forehead is sweating. What''s the matter? Worry, or fear. "


    Zuo ciqiang calmed himself and said, "it''s neither worry nor fear. Just standing near the iron pot, it''s a little hot. That''s why there are fine beads of sweat on the forehead. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Taoist Zuo is a master of Taoism. He has profound Taoism. He is not afraid of boiling oil. Is he afraid of the heat?"


    When Zuo CI heard the words, he stopped.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu would ask.


    Zuo CI responded freely and said, "although I have some achievements in practicing Taoism, I have not been listed in the Shinto, and I can''t avoid the invasion of cold and heat. In front of the iron pot, there is sweat, it is normal. As for not being afraid of rolling oil, it''s not all over the body. "


    But when he spoke, Zuo Ci was anxious. After a while, when you reach into the iron pot, you are frying your claws instead of performing amazing Taoist art.


    Zuo CI said, "can you get the copper money from the rolling oil, Tai Wei Zhang?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    The current situation, Zhang Xiu can still start, is still refused.


    When Zuo CI heard the speech, the anxiety in his eyes became more and more intense. In today''s situation, he really doesn''t understand why Zhang Xiu stopped her. Is she seeing through?


    If you see through, why don''t you just tear it down.


    Instead, he kept talking to him.


    Zuo Ci''s heart does not understand, can only honestly wait.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu looked at the boiling iron pot and asked people to put out the firewood. She said with a smile: "Taoist Zuo, I ordered people to put out the firewood. Now, take the copper. If you can bring up the copper money now, I''ll take you as my teacher and follow me. "


    Brush!


    Xu Shu''s face changed greatly.


    He immediately said, "no, my Lord!"


    Jia Xu and Li Ru also spoke. They were not sure whether Zuo CI could succeed, so they immediately persuaded him.


    But Zhang Xiu shakes her head and ignores the persuasion of Xu Shu and others. He looked at Zuo CI again and said, "Taoist priest Zuo, it''s time to prove your Dharma. As long as you put your hand in the oil of the iron pot and get out the copper coin, I will approve of you. Do you dare to reach out? "


    When Zuo CI heard the speech, his cheeks were stiff.


    His hand was hanging in the air, and he felt the hot temperature when he was still some distance away from the oil in the pot. It''s impossible to pick up the copper coin when the oil temperature goes on like this, and the hand will certainly be wasted.


    Zuo Ci''s hesitation fell into the eyes of Li Ru, Jia Xu and Xu Shu.


    Three people see this, suddenly suddenly.


    It must be Zhang Xiu.


    They are all very intelligent people. When they understand, they all put down their hearts hanging in the air and look like watching a play.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Taoist Zuo, this is your only and rare opportunity. If you miss it now, you will never have another chance. Do you really want to have a try? "


    Zuo CI took a deep breath and said, "Taiwei Zhang, I have a sudden idea. I don''t want to cast the spell today. Now, it can''t be cast like this any more. Alas, this method has just been practiced. If there is something wrong with it, please forgive me. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m afraid it''s not just finished, it''s because I dare not reach out."


    Zuo CI said: "Zhang Taiwei misunderstood."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "come on, prepare another iron pot and bring me some vinegar and oil."


    "Here it is


    Soldiers must be ordered to prepare immediately.After a while, the soldiers took vinegar and oil and set up an iron pot again. Zhang Xiu first poured vinegar into the bottom of the iron pot, then poured oil, and finally let the soldiers ignite, and then threw the copper money into the iron pot.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Taoist priest Zuo, look carefully. I''ll give you a performance and get some money from the boiling oil. "


    Zuo Ci''s face was rather embarrassed.


    Failed!


    Obviously, he thought that Zhang Xiu knew the "Taoist art" only he knew. After a while, the iron pot was boiling. Zhang Xiu reached out and took out the copper coin from the iron pot. She shook it in front of Xu Shu, Jia Xu and Li Ru.


    This scene surprised the three people.


    All three were eager to try.


    They were all curious.


    Zhang Xiu, with a bright smile on her face, said, "I want to have a try. Hurry up. Otherwise, after a while, you can''t reach in again. The current oil temperature is just right. "


    Xu Shu was bold and put out his hand directly, shaking his hand in the oil. He was surprised and said, "eh, the water temperature is not hot."


    Jia Xu and Li Ru also reached out one after another.


    There was a look of surprise on their faces. They can feel that the boiling oil is not hot. Although the temperature is increasing a little bit, it is not hot. After all, firewood is constantly burning.


    "All right!"


    Zhang Xiu orders a, let three people withdraw a hand.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zuo Ci and said, "Taoist Zuo, what else do you have? Why don''t you continue to demonstrate it. Just as it happens, I also know something about Taoism. Let''s have a contest. Alas, if I go to the mountain to practice Taoism, you have to call me Taoist brother. My talent is not inferior to yours. "


    Zuo Ci''s face was full of tears, but he didn''t expect that his Taoism failed in front of Zhang Xiu.


    However, Zuo Ci was also cheeky. He stroked his beard and said again, "Alas, I didn''t expect that Taiwei Zhang was so accomplished in Taoism. It''s really admirable."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "well, I know a Taoist art. It''s to call on countless ants to show their saints on the wall, on the ground or in other places, which is enough to show any word. Can you, Taoist Zuo? "


    When Li Ru and others heard the speech, they were in the clouds.


    They don''t understand.


    However, Zuo Ci, who was staring at the great liar of Taoist alchemists, immediately understood it. Because he used such means. He once wrote on the wall with a brush dipped in honey. Soon after, there were swarms of ants and insects, all gnawing at the honey on the wall, thus forming the word.


    It''s a trick.


    For those who believe, this is the manifestation of holiness, the real manifestation of Taoism.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in fact, I also know one way, that is, I put a palm sized statue in the earth. She can grow up by herself when I use my Daoism. "


    Zuo CI smiles. This is another "Taoist art" of his.

 Chapter 605

    Zhang Xiu put forward to let the statue grow in the soil. In the final analysis, it is very simple, that is, to prepare some soaked seeds and put them under the statue. When the seeds take root and germinate, the power of the tender bud is enough to push the statue to the top, so that the statue grows little by little.


    This is a more exquisite Taoist art.


    Zhang Xiu has broken it again.


    At this moment, Zuo CI had the idea of hiding his face and running away. In today''s situation, he knows that his tricks will not work in front of Zhang Xiu.


    The other side is an expert.


    Zuo Ci was even more surprised that Zhang Xiu, a young and military general, knew so much. Zuo CI even patted his chest and said that most people would believe his "Taoist skills".


    But I didn''t cheat Zhang Xiu.


    Zuo CI turned his eyes and said with a smile: "Taiwei is a wise man who swept the Xiongnu and wiped out the western regions. In fact, these Taoist Arts are unorthodox. The real key is today''s drought. I asked for rain for Zhang Taiwei, guaranteed rain and alleviated the current drought in Guanzhong. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Taoist priest Zuo, I have some experience about asking for rain."


    Zuo CI looks embarrassed.


    You get it again!


    What else, you don''t know.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "it''s better for us to write down the time of praying for rain in the palm of our hand and confirm each other?"


    "Yes!"


    Zuo CI nodded and answered.


    At this time, Zuo Ci''s heart was beating a drum. He wondered whether Zhang Xiu could predict the time of rain. However, Zuo CI would not say this.


    Zhang Xiu asked people to take two writing brushes and write in their palms.


    After Zhang Xiu finished writing, he saw that Zuo CI had finished writing, and then said, "Taoist Zuo, please!"


    With that, Zhang Xiu spread out her hand.


    Zhang Xiu''s palm, impressively wrote a three word, this is Jia Xu, Xu Shu and Li Rulai report time. He believed in three people, so he wrote it directly in the palm of his hand.


    Zuo CI sees three of Zhang Xiu''s palms, but she smiles.


    His palm is also a three word.


    But the two of them have the same time. Can only be spread out the palm, revealing the palm of the three words.


    Zhang Xiu pretended to be surprised and said: "Taoist Zuo, you see, even the time for praying for rain is three days later. Unexpectedly, even the time of praying for rain was also expected by me. It seems that my Daoism is also good. Whether I''m a good person or not. "


    Zuo Ci''s face changed again and again.


    He has come to understand that Zhang Xiu knows everything, that is, deliberately to tease him. This is what Zhang Xiu did on purpose. He has always been fooled by Zhang Xiu as a monkey.


    Zuo as like as two peas in a deep breath, calming himself, and saying, "since Zhang Wei Wei has already judged and is exactly the same as the poor, the poor road is not mingled." Even if there is no poor way, Zhang Taiwei can ask for rain. There''s no need for me here. I''ll leave. "


    With that, Zuo CI turned and walked out.


    At this time, Zuo CI didn''t dare to stay any longer. It was obvious that he couldn''t play Zhang Xiu''s tricks.


    "Taoist priest, wait a minute!"


    When Zuo Ci goes out, Zhang Xiu suddenly opens her mouth.


    Zuo Ci was one of the most famous alchemists. If such a person could take it for his own use, it would be of great help to Zhang Xiu.


    When she was in Hanoi County, Zhang Xiu talked with Hu Zhao about Zuo Ci and Yu Ji''s flow. She said that the advantages of recruiting Zuo Ci and Yu Ji''s flow would help Zhang Xiu straighten out the alchemists.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu was the vassal in charge. For the so-called good or bad, there is no clear concept. As long as it''s good for the country and the people, as long as it''s good for him to govern the place, even if it''s bad, it''s good for Zhang Xiu.


    Everything depends on how to use it.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Zuo CI turned around and said, "I don''t know what else is the matter with Zhang Taiwei?"


    He was worried and afraid of being liquidated by Zhang Xiu. After all, to a certain extent, Zuo Ci was a demon who deliberately played tricks and bewitched the people.


    This is not allowed by the imperial court.


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "Taoist Zuo, are you willing to work for me?"


    "Ah


    When Zuo CI heard it, he exclaimed.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would open her mouth to invite him to stay. Originally, Zuo CI came to Zhang Xiu just to get some money. He didn''t dare to expect to work for Zhang Xiu.


    But I didn''t expect that after Zhang Xiu saw through his various tricks, Zhang Xiu would open her mouth to attract him.


    It''s amazing.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "why, Taoist Zuo looks down on me, don''t you want to?"


    "No, I will. I will."


    "No, I''m willing to."


    "I''m willing to be humble!"


    Zuo Ci was so excited that he said he was willing to work for Zhang Xiu. Although Zuo CI is a alchemist, he is not a real Taoist hermit, nor is he a man who is dedicated to immortality.


    Zuo CI comes from Taoism.


    Even Zuo CI wanted to carry forward Taoism and its doctrine.Zuo CI knew that it would be extremely slow to rely on him to give alms and develop believers. It would be much easier to revive Taoism with the help of Zhang Xiu and the government.


    Zhang xiudao said: "since you are subordinated to my official, I appoint you as a real person to govern the Taoist alchemists. The first thing you do when you take office is to use the power of the government to expel the sacrifices of the witches and ghosts in Guanzhong, so that the people can understand the situation of the virtuous people, and let the people no longer believe in the witches and ghosts who seek money. "


    "I''ll do it


    Zuo CI should bow his hand.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu wanted to use him, but Zuo Ci was willing. Because he became a real person recognized by Zhang Xiu, it means that under Zhang Xiu''s command, Taoist alchemists can exist aboveboard.


    Xu Shu and others understand Zhang Xiu''s intention, but they frown. They think that Zhang Xiu is close to the alchemist, which is not a good sign. What if Zhang Xiu asks for immortality?


    Zhang Xiu noticed the expression of Xu Shu and others, did not explain anything, and continued: "Zuo Ci, I give you a warrant. You go to each county with the warrant to deal with this matter. As long as you solve this problem, I will not only give you official status, but also give you Taoist official status, so that they can become Taoist recognized by the government and receive salary. "


    "Thank you


    Zuo CI got excited.


    Zhang Xiu also has a heavy reward, which means that he will certainly get many benefits.


    This is beneficial to Taoism.


    Zhang Xiu immediately wrote a warrant and gave it to Zuo CI. Then she asked Zuo Ci to leave.


    After Zuo CI left, Zhang Xiu took Xu Shu and others back to the hall. Xu Shu couldn''t wait to say, "my Lord, I''m afraid there will be countless alchemists here once this precedent is set. Even, it will affect the Lord. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "don''t worry. I don''t want to be immortal. I don''t mean to ask for immortality. The reason why Zuo Ci was appointed as a real person is to gather these people together. "


    "It''s not easy, or even impossible, to wipe out the gods and witches everywhere. Even if I don''t care, there are so many alchemists. Instead of this, it''s better to close them all up, which is more conducive to control. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "even the Taoist theory of gods and monsters has always existed. To some extent, it''s better for us to act with them. "


    After hearing this, Xu Shu released his breath.


    What he worried about was that Zhang Xiu wanted to take some pills and seek immortality.


    That''s death.


    Xu Shu didn''t think who could live forever.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "arrange it immediately, issue a notice to inform the people in Guanzhong. In the morning of three days later, I set up an altar in the center of Chang''an city to pray for rain. "


    "I''ll do it


    As soon as Xu Shu listened, he responded directly.


    He secretly says that Zhang Xiu''s arrangement is exquisite. He knows that it will rain in three days. At this time, he prays for rain. As soon as the rain falls, Zhang Xiu''s reputation can be further improved and won the support of countless people.


    It''s a miracle.

 Chapter 606

    Chang''an City, somewhere in the west of the city.


    When Zuo CI got out of the carriage and opened the door of his house, several Taoist like alchemists welcomed him. One by one, they looked at Zuo CI with expectant looks on their faces.


    They are all Taoists with Zuo Ci, and they are all alchemists following Zuo CI. Among them, Ge Xuan, a disciple of Zuo CI. Ge Xuan is very famous in history. He is a Taoist and a teacher of heaven.


    But now Ge Xuan is just a disciple studying with Zuo CI.


    Ge Xuan was in his early thirties. His bun was fixed with a wooden hairpin. He had three short whiskers under his jaw. He was handsome and elegant. When he saw Zuo Ci, he said, "master, I''m going to see Zhang Xiu. I don''t know if it''s going well?"


    Zuo CI said, "well, not well."


    As he spoke, he went straight in.


    After he entered the hall and sat down, the rest of the disciples also sat down, their faces full of curiosity.


    All right?


    Not good?


    What does that mean?


    All of them didn''t understand Zuo Ci''s words. They were looking forward to Zuo Ci, waiting for him to solve his doubts.


    Ge Xuan''s eyes turned. After thinking for a while, he asked, "master, it''s because Zhang Xiu made it difficult for him to say that it''s not smooth. To say that it is smooth is to achieve the goal at last. Does Zhang Taiwei agree to pray for rain three days later? "


    Zuo CI shook his head and replied, "no, Zhang Taiwei didn''t ask me to pray for rain."


    "Ah


    Ge Xuan heard the words and exclaimed.


    Zhang Xiu did not agree, which means that Zuo Ci''s visit to Zhang Xiu was a failure.


    Ge Xuan said: "now there is a severe drought in Guanzhong, and not a drop of rain has fallen in two or three months. In many fields, it has cracked. Even the trees in the mountains are wilting. Today, Zhang Guanzhong should be in charge of embroidery. Why would he refuse? "


    Zuo CI does not hide, immediately said that in Taiwei''s house, Zhang Xiu broke the trick in public.


    All the people were shocked.


    No one thought that Zhang Xiu was so powerful that she could see through their means. Even Zhang Xiu left Zuo CI speechless. Everyone can guess how embarrassed Zuo Ci was at that time.


    Ge Xuan asked: "master, Zhang Xiu broke down all kinds of Taoism. What happened later? You just said all kinds of things. But actually, it''s just the part that''s not going well. What''s going well? "


    Zuo CI said: "Zhang Xiu accepted me as a teacher and appointed me as a real person to govern the alchemists and Taoists in his jurisdiction."


    WOW!!


    Everyone got excited.


    Zuo Ci''s official status means that he has the approval of the government, which makes it easier for them to act.


    Alchemy is more convenient.


    Ge Xuan arched his hand and said: "Congratulations, master. With Zhang Xiu''s real identity, he has been on a higher level ever since. At least in Guanzhong area, the master can make me famous as a Taoist. "


    Zuo CI shook his head and said, "it''s still a long way to go. Now the Lord has given me a task. Let''s destroy the people like witches, gods and ghosts and expel them. Please handle this matter well. The Lord will not only give me official status, but also you. I''m a real person in Guanzhong. At that time, you can be in every county. "


    When they heard this, they were all excited.


    Everyone wants something.


    Or seek fame!


    Or profit!


    Or for obsession!


    ¡­¡­


    Most of Zuo Ci''s followers are alchemists. Many of them ask for immortals, but they don''t really ask for them. It''s because I have no other strong points. I just want to find a new way to cut in from the aspect of daomen.


    It''s a shortcut.


    Of course, there are also people like GE Xuan, who were born in a famous family and had a scholarly family. As long as he is willing, he can easily become an official and become an official, but he likes Taoism and alchemy.


    Zuo CI looked at the crowd and said, "although I have a command from my Lord, I can mobilize the strength of all parties. But it is not easy to solve this problem. Now, we have to wipe out all the witches and gods one by one. In the whole Guanzhong area, there can''t be any more witches offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods. We can only respect Taoism. "


    At this time, Taoism was no longer the early one governing state affairs.


    In the early Western Han Dynasty, when Confucianism was not respected alone, Taoism had the skill of governing the country and paid attention to Huang Lao''s way of governing by doing nothing. Today''s Taoism has become a religion.


    When people heard Zuo Ci''s words, they were all faintly excited.


    After Zuo CI settled the crowd, his eyes fell on Ge Xuan. Compared with the rest of Zuo Ci''s disciples, Ge Xuan was born in a famous family, could read and read, could study classics, and had more plasticity.


    Zuo cizheng said: "disciple, if Taoism wants to really stand, it is not only by completing the task of the Lord. In addition, we need someone who is familiar with Taoist classics and can explain the way of heaven. "


    After a pause, Zuo CI said, "you have the best talent in this respect. You should study classics hard. I am a Taoist. I can''t just be a teacher. I need more people. Taoism is not only seeking immortality, but also a science. It''s hard to be a hall of elegance only by ghost tricks. ""I understand!"


    When GE Xuan heard this, he looked solemn.


    He followed Zuo Ci not only because he knew all kinds of alchemy, but also because he knew many Taoist classics and could elaborate more works according to them.


    This is what GE Xuan admired Zuo CI. As for some unorthodox tricks, they are not enough to worry about. The backbone of the unorthodox is just a way to attract people''s attention or develop believers.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    A Taoist enters.


    After the Taoist entered, he bowed to Zuo Ci and said, "master, there is a notice posted outside. Three days later, in the morning, Zhang Taiwei will set up an altar in the center of the city to pray for rain. "


    "I see!"


    Zuo CI waved his hand and let Dao Tong back.


    After Tao Tong left, Zuo CI looked at GE Xuan and said in a deep voice, "do you see that? We can watch the sky at night, judge that it will rain three days later, and the Lord can make accurate judgment. "


    "At that time, in Taiwei''s house, I was just run by the Lord, writing about the time of praying for rain. At that time, the Lord also gave three days. Under the Lord''s command, there are talented people and scholars. "


    "And what the Lord shows is that he doesn''t reject the theory of ghosts and gods."


    "He knew it was going to rain, but he took the initiative to pray for rain. That is to take advantage of this opportunity to win the hearts of the people and let the people trust him more. With the protection of ghosts and gods and the aura of God, countless people are more devoted to the Lord. "


    Zuo CI said: "this is the Lord. He is worthy of being a hero."


    Ge Xuanhan said: "it''s true that Taiwei Zhang is not a simple man. He has a very accurate grasp of the opportunity. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are not his rivals. If you follow Zhang Taiwei, you may be able to carry forward daomen. "


    Zuo CI said: "I hope so. If we can carry forward Taoism, this life will be enough."


    After a pause, Zuo CI said, "well, don''t delay. Go and clean up. We''ll start from Chang''an. These three days, we strive to build up momentum for the Lord and create a side where the Lord is favored by God. We''ll solve the rest of the problems after we go to Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    Ge Xuan hears the speech, turns around and retreats.


    Zuo Ci was sitting alone in the hall, looking slightly excited. He is a Taoist and inherits the knowledge of Taoism. In fact, even the theory of alchemy is just the appearance of Zuo CI.


    What he hopes to recover is the knowledge of Taoism, which will be more glorious than Confucianism. This is what Zuo CI doesn''t want.


    In this world, the Confucianists have been respected for hundreds of years.


    Taoist people have been living in seclusion, but it is not necessarily that Taoism has disappeared. Zuo CI has his own ideas and ambitions.

 Chapter 607

    The notice that Zhang Xiu is going to pray for rain doesn''t cause much trouble for ordinary people. The reason is very simple. The drought has lasted for such a long time that people don''t think Zhang Xiu can pray for rain successfully.


    At first, no one believed it.


    All of a sudden, there is a rumor in the city that Zhang Xiu is a man protected by heaven. If Zhang Xiu sincerely prays for rain, she is likely to succeed.


    News spread from one to ten, from ten to one hundred, and it kept coming out.


    The common people of this era, most of them, are illiterate and believe in the theory of ghosts and gods. In particular, all the alchemists began to advocate that Zhang Xiu had the protection of God. As long as Zhang Xiu was sincere, he could make the sky rain. Gradually, countless people believed that.


    Chang''an''s public opinion began to be one-sided. Even the rumors are constantly changing and the versions are constantly updated. In the end, it turns out that Zhang Xiu is the reincarnation of the God of heaven, the reincarnation of the three emperors, and so on.


    In short, Zhang Xiu is covered with countless auras.


    The reincarnation of gods and men.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, countless people gathered around the altar built in the heart of the city. Before dawn, people from all over the world gathered here to pray for rain with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu got up very early. After breakfast, he was dressed in a broad necked shirt, a Jinxian crown, and a grand dress. In addition, his Taiwei Fu assistant officials, six ministers, and many generals also accompanied him.


    All the people under Zhang Xiu went with her.


    Everyone went out of Taiwei''s house and went straight to the center of the city. Not long after Zhang Xiu left Taiwei''s house, she saw that people began to gather on the streets not far away. Countless people, along with him, went to the location of the altar.


    By this time, the sun was already in the sky.


    In July, the sun is still hot. Under the sunlight, the temperature rises.


    Is there rain here?


    Zhang Xiu herself can see some celestial phenomena. After all, he knows something about meteorology. But early in the morning, the sun was already rising. It didn''t look like rain at all.


    However, no matter what, the sword has come out of its sheath, so it can only move forward, not backward.


    Zhang Xiu moves forward step by step.


    Around countless people talking, and when they look at Zhang Xiu, they all look forward to it.


    They are looking forward to rain.


    The drought has lasted for two or three months. Although the government has provided relief and diverted water from the river, it has now ensured that people and animals will not die. However, the crops in the field have been damaged by rice seedlings. After all, the drought lasts for a long time.


    When countless people whispered, Zhang Xiu continued to move forward and finally came to the center of the city.


    An altar was built here.


    All the people stood under the altar, while Zhang Xiu walked up the steps slowly and ascended the altar.


    Thanks to the wide space and the open surroundings, this place can accommodate countless people, otherwise it can''t really accommodate so many people. When Zhang Xiu arrived, almost all the people of Chang''an came.


    Even the people from other places came one after another. When people came here, they not only watched, but also prayed for rain with Zhang Xiu, praying for heavy rain to come down and alleviate the long-lasting drought as soon as possible.


    When Zhang Xiu went to the top of the altar, stood on the top, turned around and glanced around.


    Looking around, there are a lot of people.


    There are people around the altar, and the streets and alleys far away from the altar are also full of people who can''t go any further.


    It''s overcrowded.


    There are people everywhere.


    Without hesitation, Zhang Xiu took out an offering made of rice paper and stood on the stage to read it aloud. After he finished reading, he threw the sacrifice into the burning brazier, and then there was paper money thrown in, and the sacrifice burned violently.


    "Please give me rain!"


    Zhang Xiu lifted her robe and knelt down, her hands on the ground.


    "Please give me rain!"


    When the civil and military generals saw Zhang Xiu kneeling, they knelt down together, and countless people cried out.


    "Please give me rain!"


    "Please give me rain!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts rang out and echoed in the air.


    More and more people are joining in.


    Countless people were shouting.


    The voice of asking heaven to give rain reverberates in the air, and the voice resounds throughout Chang''an city. Because there are too many people participating in the shouting, and their voices are deafening.


    In the sky, the sun is still burning!


    The golden sun came down from the sky and shone on the altar.


    Zhang Xiu was exposed to the sun and felt a little hot, but she had no choice but to continue praying for rain. Because at this point, there is no way out, and we can only be sure that it will rain.


    Outside the crowd, Zuo Ci and others also came. However, Zuo Ci, Ge Xuan and others did not go to the street, but on the second floor of a restaurant, watching the scene from a distance.


    Zuo CI said in a deep voice: "this scene will be branded in the memory of countless people. Everyone will never forget today. "Ge Xuan said: "teacher, the time we calculated is rain today. But now it''s not going to rain for a while. It''s still a long time for Taiwei Zhang to kneel down. "


    Zuo CI narrowed his eyes and said, "it''s going to rain soon."


    "Ah


    Ge Xuan was a little surprised when he heard that.


    Look at the weather outside, the sun is still, not like rain.


    Zuo CI explained: "you are in a position where you can''t see the clouds in the sky. Now in the sky, there are dark clouds gathering, and they are running towards the sun. Soon, the sun will be gone. The heavy rain that has been waiting for months is coming down. "


    Ge Xuan poked out his head and saw that there were dark clouds gathering outside.


    A moment later, the sun was covered.


    All over the sky, it''s dark.


    When all the people kneeling around the altar saw the change of the sky, they were suddenly overjoyed. Excited one by one, they kowtowed to the ground with their heads and chanted again such words as "please God give rain.".


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, there was thunder in the sky.


    The thunder exploded, and a bright light flashed over Zhang Xiu and disappeared. The bright and dazzling scene made Zhang Xiu kneeling on the altar look like a god man.


    After the people saw this, many people couldn''t bear it, so they became excited and began to kowtow to Zhang Xiu.


    The atmosphere at the scene was very warm.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom


    One after another, the thunder reverberated in my ears.


    Its momentum is appalling.


    "Tick! Tick


    Suddenly, rain began to fall in the sky.


    "It''s raining!"


    There was a hysterical cry in the crowd. The sound contains endless excitement, endless excitement and endless relief.


    It''s raining!


    It''s raining at last!


    "God bless, it''s raining."


    In the crowd, countless people chanted.


    WOW!!


    Rain, from the beginning of a drop, gradually changed into a pouring rain. Dense rain, like rain hit banana, constantly falling down. Countless people are drenched in rain, feeling the fall of rain, feeling the infiltration of raindrops, and cheering in their hearts.


    "Zhang Taiwei!"


    In the crowd, someone suddenly called out the name of Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Taiwei!"


    There was another response and a shout.


    "Zhang Taiwei!"


    "Zhang Taiwei!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded. More and more people shout, the sound of the wave, a wave higher than a wave, actually suppressed the crash of rain.


    One by one, the people were drenched by the heavy rain and became drowned. But the expression on everyone''s face is only excited, shouting Zhang Xiu''s name and thanking her for praying for rain.


    In the eyes of the people, Zhang Xiu asked for the heavy rain.


    If it had not been for Zhang Xiu, there would have been no heavy rain today.


    Thanks to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 608

    It rained cats and dogs all day. From morning to night, there was plenty of water in the dry fields. After a thorough heavy rain, the drought was finally alleviated.


    Zhang Xiu has returned to Taiwei''s residence.


    He sat in the attic, looking at the light rain outside the window, with a smile on his face.


    Now it''s starting to rain less.


    In a short time, there is no need to worry about drought.


    It can be said that the people in Guanzhong survived the disaster. And Zhang Xiu also survived. In fact, the drought in Guanzhong this year would have been enough to destroy countless families if the government had not responded properly, continuously diverted water for disaster relief and kept down food prices.


    After a heavy rain, everything was solved.


    When it was nearly dark, Zhang Xiu, Huang Yueying and other four girls had dinner. As soon as Zhang Xiu returned to her study, a servant reported that Kuai Yue had come outside Taiwei''s house.


    Zhang Xiu directly arranged for people to invite them.


    Not long after, Kuai Yue entered the study, saw Zhang Xiu, arched his hand and said: "humble Kuai Yue, meet the Lord."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "sit down!"


    "Thank you


    Kuai Yue gave thanks.


    In the face of today''s Zhang Xiu, Kuai Yue is more and more respectful. Even in the face of Zhang Xiu, he feels more and more pressure. Once upon a time, when the Kuai family surrendered to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu''s strength was not as strong as it is now.


    In a short period of time, Zhang Xiu has become a great Han''s Taiwei, more control of a county in Bingzhou, but also capture Liangzhou, stable in Guanzhong, strength has been quite powerful.


    Zhang xiudao said, "what''s the matter with this strange journey to the north?"


    Kuai Yue replied, "it''s a cliche to go north to Chang''an in a humble position. Liu Biao asked the Lord to fulfill his agreement and went south to capture Yuzhang County for him. Liu Biao has always remembered the original agreement. Before that, my Lord had said that he would go south in the second half of the year. Liu Biao has always been concerned about the situation of the Lord. As soon as he captured Liangzhou, he let him go northward. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if Liangzhou is pacified, Jingzhou can be captured. With a stable rear, it is appropriate to seize Jingzhou. "


    "That''s good, that''s good."


    Kuai Yue was also happy when he heard that, and said: "before, he thought that the Lord might attack Hanzhong. After all, Zhang Lu and Han Sui once attacked Chencang together."


    "Not for the time being!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Yizhou is not easy to attack, Hanzhong is not easy to attack. For the time being, don''t beat Zhang Lu. "


    The topography of Yizhou is clear to Zhang Xiu.


    Shu Road is hard, but it is hard to reach the sky.


    With his current strength, there is no need to waste too much energy to gnaw Hanzhong such a hard bone. After Taking Jingzhou, it''s not too late to transfer troops to attack Zhanglu in Hanzhong. By that time, the area under Zhang Xiu''s rule had surrounded the whole of Yizhou, and it would be easier to attack Hanzhong.


    Kuai Yue''s words changed and he said in a deep voice: "now the Lord wants to capture Jingzhou, I''m afraid it''s not as easy as before."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "why?"


    Kuai Yue replied: "since the last time the Lord refused Liu Biao to go south to Yuzhang County, Liu Biao has recently consciously strengthened the control of the army and grasped the military power."


    "In addition, Liu Biao is also purposefully adjusting the structure of officials. Even around Liu Biao, there is a counselor named Guyong, who is quite powerful and not easy to deal with. "


    "Although humble, Cai Mao and others are still in high positions, in fact, we are not involved in military power now. In particular, the control of Xiangyang City is more strict. Now it is not easy to control Liu Biao in turn. "


    Kuai Yue explained: "earlier on, Cai Mao was in charge of the army and had certain military power. But before that, Liu Biao used some small things to cut off Cai Mao''s military power. Although Liu Biao also valued us, in fact, Liu Biao''s military power was mainly in the hands of Wen pin. But Wen hired this man and was loyal to Liu Biao. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "it seems that Liu Biao has noticed something. Otherwise, there will be no adjustment and no recruitment of counsellors. "


    "But it doesn''t matter."


    "When my troops go south and enter Xiangyang, if things go well, I will take Xiangyang. If things don''t go well, they will unite Liu Biao''s army to attack Yuzhang county and weaken Liu Biao''s strength on the battlefield. "


    "Finally, deal with Liu Biao."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s just a matter of morning and night. It doesn''t hurt to postpone it. In a word, with your big families in Xiangyang, it is enough to help me ensure the change of power and local stability. "


    Kuai Yue nodded: "this is no problem, but even local officials, Liu Biao is also making conscious adjustments. According to Liu Biao''s style, it is weakening the power of Jingzhou people. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s OK. There''s no way. After all, Liu Biao is a herdsman in Jingzhou. He can''t stop him from adjusting his officials. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, Wang Yue entered from outside the room.


    Wang Yue looked solemn and said, "Lord, there is news from Yuzhou. Besides, there is more news from Zhuge Liang. "Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, it is a surprise, now there is Zhuge Liang''s news. Since Pang Degong said that Zhuge Liang left Xiangyang quietly, Zhang Xiu stopped taking charge of Zhuge Liang, but arranged for the royal guards to pay attention to him. Unexpectedly, she inquired into the news.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter from Wang Yue and quickly read it.


    After a while, he read all of them.


    Zhang Yu was surprised when he had embroidered his eyebrows. Because now Zhuge Liang has become an official early, and no surprise, he has worked for Liu Bei and become Liu Bei''s military adviser.


    Not only that, Liu Bei became a herdsman and took charge of Yuzhou. Of course, the whole Yuzhou is not in Liu Bei''s hands. Today, Liu Bei only controls a part of the counties in Yuzhou.


    When Zhuge Liang surrendered to Liu Bei is beyond textual research.


    The cause of the incident in Yuzhou was the rebellion of the yellow scarf bandits in Runan, who were captured by Lu Bu, and Liu Bei, who was subordinated to Cao Cao, took the opportunity to ask Cao Cao to fight, and took the initiative to encircle and suppress the yellow scarf bandits in Yuzhou.


    As soon as Liu Bei arrived, he recruited the yellow scarf thieves from Runan and occupied Runan County directly. Under Zhuge Liang''s plan, in a short time, Liu Bei got a firm foothold and began to expand around Runan County.


    At this time, Cao Cao was still busy attacking Lu Bu and had no time to solve Liu Bei''s problems.


    Liu Bei in history, in Runan County, has not yet been subordinated to Zhuge Liang. Even Liu Bei himself was not in Runan at this time.


    Everything has changed.


    The cause of all these changes is Zhuge Liang.


    Because Zhuge Liang came to Liu Bei''s side and gave advice for Liu Bei, which made Liu Bei get rid of the four wars in Xuzhou and move to Yuzhou to avoid the war temporarily.


    Zhang Xiu rubs the message on the letter paper. Although it''s unexpected, she doesn''t pay much attention to it.


    In Yuzhou, Liu Bei was not afraid.


    There is no need for Zhang Xiu to send troops. When Cao Cao slows down, he will attack Liu Bei, because Yuzhou is Cao Cao''s territory.


    Zhang Xiu accepted the news and asked Wang Yue to step down. She turned to Kuai Yue and said, "Yidu, you should return to Xiangyang immediately and report to Liu Biao. I will send troops to Xiangyang later. This time I''m going south, I''ll send 30000 troops to make Liu Biao ready to send troops. "


    "Here it is


    Kuai Yue responded directly.


    Although the situation in Jingzhou has changed slightly. But for Zhang Xiu, in fact, it did not have much influence. Even if Liu Biao was in charge of the army, Zhang Xiu had enough assurance to win Jingzhou.


    In other words, to win Xiangyang is to win Jingzhou.


    Kuai Yue didn''t stay and turned to leave.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for the soldiers to inform the civil and military generals under her command. They came to the hall to discuss the issue of sending troops. All the six books of history headed by Xu Shu, Sima Yi, Guoyuan and others arrived.


    Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Gao Lan, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Yan and others also attended.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "just now, Liu Biao sent Kuai more and more to ask me to go south to Jingzhou to help him capture the Yuzhang and break Jiangdong. Liangzhou calmed down and the drought eased. I''m going to take a rest and send troops south. "


    The crowd was excited by the speech.


    They all know the situation of Jingzhou, which is the place where Zhang Xiu first rose with her strength, and also the place where Zhang Xiu has many hidden strengths, especially Jingzhou is extremely rich.


    If we seize Jingzhou, we can get countless money and grain to solve the grain problem in Guanzhong.

 Chapter 609

    The civil servants headed by Xu Shu all knew that Jingzhou, Kuai family, Cai family, Pang family and other aristocratic families were already on Zhang Xiu''s side. As long as Zhang Xiu takes over Jingzhou, these big families will make efforts to change the wind direction of Jingzhou and let Zhang Xiu control the place.


    So all of them didn''t think how difficult it was to capture Jingzhou.


    In terms of generals, not to mention. They are all eager to fight at once, and they are eager to fight against the enemy and make contributions in order to gain fame.


    Although Xu Shu agreed, he was not arrogant. He said, "how many troops did the Lord lead when he went south?"


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "it only needs Huang Zhong''s 30000 flying bear troops to go south this time. There are many fields in the south, which is not suitable for too many cavalry. So this time, you don''t have to go to Langya camp. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "in addition to Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao went with the army. The rest of the generals stayed in Chang''an to train their soldiers. In terms of counselors, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Guoyuan accompanied him. The rest of us will be in Chang''an. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    For civil servants, there is no influence. After all, they have a lot of government affairs to deal with. On the contrary, Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Zhang Yan and others felt sorry that they did not get the opportunity to send troops.


    Zhang Xiu arranges everything properly, lets the public go to prepare, and decides to send troops in three days.


    Everyone retreated, but Zhang Xiu braved the rainy night to leave Taiwei''s house and go to Chang''an Academy.


    Today''s academy has been completed.


    In the Academy, people come and go.


    Many of them are young taxis, as well as eight or nine year old children, all shuttling through the Academy. Today''s academies have established a complete framework. From the age of seven or eight to the age of sixteen or seventeen, there is room for learning, and each of them is different.


    Zhang Xiu arrived and met Yang Biao, the president of the hospital. Today''s Yang Biao has a ruddy complexion and good spirit.


    In the Academy, he was very busy.


    Not only to be responsible for teaching, but also to deal with some college affairs.


    Although busy, but also full.


    Yang Biao said: "Taiwei appointed dezu to be the governor of Liangzhou. He is young and may do something wrong. I hope Taiwei can knock more. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yang Gong doesn''t have to be modest. Dezu is steady and has his own ideas. I''m relieved that he runs Liangzhou. What''s more, with the help of Gao Lan''s army, Duke Yang doesn''t have to worry. "


    Yang Biao said: "let Taiwei bother."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head with a smile.


    Yang Biao said in a deep voice: "Taiwei, there is a saying that I don''t know whether to say it or not."


    Zhang xiudao: "Yang Gong, but it''s OK to say so."


    Yang Biao said: "a few days ago, I received a letter from Xu Du, which was sent by Dong Cheng on behalf of the emperor. The emperor asked when the Taiwei was going to attack Cao Cao and save the emperor from fire and water. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what do you think of Yang Gong?"


    Yang Biao stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a smile, "now I''m light without an official. I don''t hold an official position in the court, I don''t seek my own political position, and I don''t get involved in the political affairs of the court. So, I have no opinion. I''m just telling you what to do. It''s the Taiwei''s own business. "


    Nowadays, Yang Biao lives a full life in the Academy.


    There is no overt and covert struggle in the court.


    There is no power struggle in the court.


    There is no debate about loyalty and treachery in the court.


    Yang Biao only needs to sincerely teach scholars and strive to develop Chang''an Academy. Yang Biao didn''t want to be involved in the rest of the affairs.


    It''s not that Yang Biao is not loyal to the emperor, it''s that under the current situation, Yang Biao doesn''t know what to do.


    It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to attack Cao Cao now, even in the eyes of an old minister like Yang Biao. Even though it can''t save the current situation, it''s better not to attack.


    Therefore, Yang Biao is not willing to interfere.


    Hearing Yang Biao''s words, Zhang Xiu smiles and says, "Lord Yang, you can write back to Dong Cheng, saying that there is a severe drought in Guanzhong. I have no skills to attack Cao Cao, and I can''t relieve the emperor''s dilemma for the time being. Now it''s decided in Guanzhong that there will be turmoil in Jingzhou. At the invitation of Liu Biao, I want to go south to Jingzhou. I don''t have time for that. "


    "I see."


    Yang Biao nodded and answered.


    As soon as the words changed, Yang Biao said with a smile: "there are many great Confucians and celebrities in today''s academies. There are Guan Ning and Bing Yuan who came back from Liaodong, as well as some celebrities from all over the country. Today''s Chang''an academy is full of talents. "


    When talking about this, Yang Biao''s face was full of joy.


    He loved the excitement of the Academy.


    It''s a blessing that belongs to the scholar alone.


    After chatting with Yang Biao for a while, Zhang Xiu didn''t stay much. Instead of meeting Guan Ning, Bing yuan and others, he turned to the hospital to see Zhang Zhongjing, Hua Tuo and others, and asked about the situation of the hospital.


    Today''s hospital is more lively.The so-called bustle is that there are countless patients, because there are such medical masters as Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, and all the dignitaries, rich businessmen and gentry from all over the country come to Chang''an for treatment. It can be said that there are too many people.


    Even though the planned hospital is large in scale, it still has a huge number of patients.


    The hospital is a cornucopia.


    The hospital alone can earn countless money for Zhang Xiu every day.


    After spending more than half an hour in the hospital, Zhang Xiu stopped staying, risked the night to leave and returned to Taiwei''s house. When Zhang Xiu returned to Taiwei''s house, the night was deep, and it was still raining outside.


    At this time of rain, even more than in the evening.


    Raindrops line up and keep falling.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the heavy rain falling down, and her sorrow is gone. His subordinates, including hospitals, academies, and even the rice paper sold, have developed and begun to operate well. They continue to make blood for Zhang Xiu and ensure her financial stability.


    This is the foundation of Zhang Xiu''s campaign.


    A heavy rain, under the full two days, around the pond, are full of water. Fortunately, the ditches have been dug long ago, the silt has been cleared, and the reinforcement of the dykes and dams has been strengthened. Therefore, the flooding of the river and the sudden drop of rain have little impact.


    Everything went very well.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, in the morning.


    The weather has turned fine. After the heavy rain, the sky is clear and the sun is very bright.


    After Zhang Xiu left Taiwei''s house, she went straight to the barracks.


    Huang Zhong has been waiting for a long time to mobilize his army.


    "Let''s go!"


    At the command of Zhang Xiu, the army set out.


    Zhang Xiu took Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Sima Yi, Guo Yuan and Pang Tong along with the Chinese army. Zhang Xiu left Chang''an and went south to Jingzhou.


    Although it rained for two or three days from Chang''an, the road was not muddy and it was easy to drive. After all, it has been dry for several months in various places. After the surface rain has been soaked away, there has been no collapse of rocks. The roads are relatively smooth.


    The army went south, mighty.


    After entering Nanyang County from Chang''an, it has entered August, and the weather is getting cooler.


    It''s the most comfortable time to March.


    Nanyang County under the rule of Zhang Xiu, this area is now booming. Especially in Luyang County of Nanyang County, Lushan anthracite is the most abundant place with rapid development.


    In addition, Nanyang County is also quite prosperous and rich. After all, Nanyang County is connected with Guanzhong in the north and Xiangyang in Jingzhou in the south, with convenient transportation. In addition, Nanyang County is also the place where Zhang Xiu was the first to govern and develop the fastest and earliest.

 Chapter 610

    Jizhou, Yecheng.


    General''s mansion.


    Today''s Yuan Shao is a little relieved, no previous anxiety. However, although Jizhou has stabilized, the aftermath of the war with Zhang Xiu has emerged.


    He lost his troops at the expense of his generals.


    Even though Gongsun Zan has now retreated to Youzhou, Yuan Shao has not enough troops to go north. He can only watch Gongsun Zan return to Youzhou and can''t catch up with Gongsun Zan.


    Even though Gongsun Zan was not good at governing local areas, he was good at fighting, but he could not be underestimated. Yuan Shao could not destroy Gongsun Zan for a while, but could only maintain the status quo.


    Yuan Shao hated Zhang Xiu to the bone and wanted to revenge.


    However, Yuan Shao is also afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    It''s really hard to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    After Yuan Shao learned of the drought in Guanzhong, Yuan Shao''s heart was completely happy. He looked forward to the drought in Guanzhong until the end of the year. As long as the drought is carried out and continues to the end of the year, the people in Zhang Xiu''s jurisdiction will be in turmoil.


    At that time, Yuan Shao will have a chance to revenge.


    In the hall.


    Yuan Shao is watching the singer dance.


    All the singers in his family are graceful, protruding forward and backward, with outstanding beauty. Its graceful posture is more exciting and attractive.


    Yuan Shao enjoyed singing and dancing while drinking.


    A sound of footwork came from the outside, but he strode in. When he entered, he looked at the singers in the hall and frowned a little when he listened to the music.


    Since Yuan Shao returned to Jizhou from Hanoi County, he often indulged in singing and dancing and did not deal with government affairs.


    This makes me unhappy.


    But he didn''t say much. He went up and said, "Lord!"


    Yuan Shao waved his hand. All the singers stepped back and said, "what''s the matter, military strategist?"


    Ju replied: "I got two pieces of news from my humble position. As for the north of Runan County, Liu Bei didn''t expand, because Yingchuan county and other places were controlled by Cao Cao.


    Liu Bei is afraid to go up.


    After all, Liu Bei is not willing to fight Cao Cao for the time being. He just occupied in Runan County, constantly accumulating strength and developing strength. Last year, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shu, but in fact, Yuan Shu was still dying, so Liu Bei actively expanded to Yangzhou in the East.


    It was Liu Bei who had been fighting for many years, and now he was able to make his own decisions. Under his command, Zhuge Liang and other counsellors gave advice, and Liu Bei was even more happy.


    He has the strength to compete.


    Under Liu Bei, there is a young man with lofty appearance.


    Holding a feather fan, the young man is handsome and elegant, with bright eyes, full forehead and vast heaven. He is handsome and elegant.


    This person is no other than Zhuge Liang.


    He is not yet in his twenties, but Zhuge Liang''s knowledge and experience have greatly increased since he traveled all over the world. Under this premise, he sat down, his face was not childish, but calm.


    Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and said, "Lord, I just got the news from Guanzhong. After the continuous drought in Guanzhong, Zhang Xiu prayed for rain in person, and then it rained heavily. "


    When he said this, Zhuge Liang''s eyes were full of gloom.


    If the drought in Guanzhong continues until the end of the year, the foundation of Zhang Xiu will be turbulent or even rebellious. Yuan Shao of Jizhou in the north, and even Cao Cao, may attack Zhang Xiu.


    Even if the drought continues, Zhang Xiu''s seemingly powerful strength may fall apart like a flash in the pan. Zhuge Liang''s heart, looking forward to this scene.


    But heaven doesn''t fulfill people''s wishes.


    Zhang Xiu prayed for rain in person, which made it rain heavily and solved the crisis in Guanzhong.

 Chapter 611

    Liu Bei''s face, full of vicissitudes, showed a smile and said: "military adviser, Zhang Xiu prayed for rain from heaven in person and finally succeeded. It seems that they are also sincere and open-minded. "


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he gasped.


    In his heart, he hoped that Zhang Xiu would get worse and worse, but he didn''t want her life to get better and better.


    This is his obsession.


    In fact, there is no contradiction between Zhuge Liang and Zhang Xiu. If there is any contradiction, it is just that Huang Chengyan once hoped to marry Zhuge Liang and planned to marry Huang Yueying to Zhuge Liang.


    But in the end, the marriage was stirred up by Zhang Xiu. Now, Huang Yueying has become Zhang Xiu''s wife and even gave birth to her son Zhang Cheng. Of course, this is not contradictory.


    Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying were not childhood friends, and they only met once or twice.


    Moreover, Zhuge Liang did not propose marriage.


    There is no relationship between the two sides.


    However, Zhuge Liang didn''t like Zhang Xiu, or he couldn''t get used to Zhang Xiu''s character, or Zhang Xiu''s arrogant attitude, or other reasons


    In short, Zhuge Liang did not like Zhang Xiu.


    Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was a very honest man.


    When he heard Liu Bei''s words, he said in a deep voice: "Lord, you think too much about Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu can pray for rain successfully, it''s absolutely not the spirit that knows that gold and stone are the foundation of success."


    "I can also watch the sky at night. According to my humble position, it is very likely that Zhang Xiu had judged this matter long ago, and then informed her in advance, and then went on stage to pray for rain."


    "In this way, it can not only resolve the crisis Zhang Xiu encountered, but also help Zhang Xiu gather the hearts of the people, making the people in Guanzhong trust Zhang Xiu. Even so, people all over the world think that Zhang Xiu is extraordinary. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "this is the purpose of Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Bei said with a smile, "it''s really possible after the military adviser said. Although I haven''t dealt with Zhang Xiu, many people who have dealt with Zhang Xiu say that Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord is wise!"


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    But Sun Qian entered.


    Sun Qian was one of the counselors under Liu Bei. When Zhuge Liang didn''t submit to Liu Bei, it was Sun Qian who gave advice for Liu Bei. However, sun Qian was not very good at marching and arranging troops, even in internal affairs.


    What sun Qian is good at most is to use a sharp mouth to lobby the four sides and to open eyes for Liu Bei. Therefore, even if sun Qian assisted Liu Bei, he did not let Liu Bei have a foothold in Xuzhou.


    The arrival of Zhuge Liang relieved sun Qian.


    Sun Qian also admired Zhuge Liang.


    Even though Zhuge Liang was young, sun Qian was convinced by Zhuge Liang''s command ability and his tactics.


    Sun Qian stood still and said, "Lord!"


    Liu Bei nodded: "Gongyou is in a hurry. What''s the matter?"


    Sun Qian replied, "I have just received a message from mu Liubiao of Jingzhou. Liu Biao said that he was ready to attack Yuzhang County in Jiangdong and fight a decisive battle with sun CE. Liu Biao asked the Lord to join hands to attack sun CE in Jiangdong. "


    When Liu Bei heard this, he frowned and thought about it. Liu Bei said directly, "Yuzhang county is in Jiangdong. We are so busy in Yuzhou that we don''t have time to help. Gongyou, you wrote back directly, tactfully, and refused Liu Biao''s request. "


    "Here it is


    Sun Qian was ordered to turn around and walk out.


    "Wait a minute!"


    At this time, Zhuge Liang, who didn''t speak, stopped him.


    Sun Qian turned around, looked at Zhuge Liang and asked, "do you have any different opinions?"


    Ge Yuliang stood up to help Zhuzhou attack. I''m afraid the Lord can''t refuse this. He has to send troops. "


    "Why?" Liu Bei asked


    Liu Bei did not understand this. In Liu Bei''s view, the long journey to help Liu Biao is not easy to please, but also easy to spend their own forces, which is a hundred harms but not a profit.


    Sun Qian has his own opinion, he said: "military adviser, Liu Biao is stronger than the Lord. But he asked him to go, which is not good for him


    "No, Gongyou, you don''t know the situation."


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and explained, "when I left Jingzhou, I heard a piece of news. Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu once reached an agreement that after Zhang Xiu arrived at Guanzhong, he would go south to help Liu Biao capture Yuzhang county. "


    "Now Liu Biao has invited us to send troops to Jingzhou. It can be concluded that Zhang Xiu will also send troops to the south. Liu Biao invited Zhang Xiu to go south, hoping that Zhang Xiu would capture Yuzhang County for him, but Liu Biao was worried that Zhang Xiu would invade the Guo State and annex Jingzhou. "


    "Therefore, Liu Biao just sent people to inform the Lord that he would go south to Jingzhou."


    Zhuge Liang said: "Liu Biao''s intention is to hope that the Lord will restrain Zhang Xiu, or that Zhang Xiu will not be the only one."


    Sun Qian said: "even so, we don''t have to help Liu Biao, we don''t have to be the gun in Liu Biao''s hand. It''s not cost-effective for us to know that Liu Biao wants to use us, but he has to go there. "Liu Bei didn''t express his opinion and asked, "how did the military division think about it?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "there are three aspects to consider humble position."


    "After hearing this, Liu Bei thought carefully, nodded his head and said," the military adviser has a point. Since the military adviser said so, we will send troops to Jingzhou and meet Zhang Xiu for a while. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord is wise!"


    He was looking forward to going to Jingzhou. The next battle is not a fight between Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu. There is no direct conflict between the two sides, so Zhuge Liang is not worried.


    Zhuge Liang''s heart, looking forward to seeing Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.

 Chapter 612

    Jingzhou, Xiangyang.


    Today''s Xiangyang is still prosperous and prosperous. People come and go in Xiangyang, less smoke filled the taste. After years of Chengping, Xiangyang City is peaceful, and no one will think that Xiangyang City will encounter war.


    Inside the city, the prefecture.


    In the study, sandalwood is everywhere.


    Liu Biao, dressed in a splendid dress and a Jinxian crown, sat upright. Opposite him sat a middle-aged man of thirty.


    This man is dignified and dignified.


    His name is Guyong. He is Liu Biao''s new counselor. Since Liu Biao found that someone in the Kuai family held an important position under Zhang Xiu''s command, he did not trust the Kuai family very much. Later, Liu Biao suddenly learned that both the Cai family and the Kuai family had rice paper shares and could share the profits of rice paper.


    Liu Biao was even more suspicious.


    Liu Biao did not think that the CAI and Kuai families would betray him. But he thinks that with the exchange of interests between the Kuai family, the Cai family and Zhang Xiu, there may be some bias in the treatment of Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao gradually deprived Cai Mao of military power and firmly held military power in his hands.


    This is what Liu Biao can do.


    Liu Biao is the leader of Jingzhou as long as he has military power. Liu Biao is not afraid even if several big families are intertwined, and even there are many officials at the bottom.


    He is still the leader of Jingzhou.


    Liu Biao''s eyes fell on Gu Yong and said: "Sir, according to the news, Zhang Xiu''s troops are going south. Even Liu Bei from Yuzhou is on his way. The combination of our three armies is enough to destroy sun CE. In your opinion, do you want to change the plan, drive straight in, attack Wujun directly, and attack Sunce''s headquarters? "


    "Not my Lord!"


    Gu Yong stroked his beard and shook his head.


    Liu Biao said, "why?"


    Gu Yong said in a deep voice: "can you rest assured about Zhang Xiu?"


    Liu Biao said: "naturally, I don''t feel at ease. Otherwise, I won''t let Liu Bei come to Jingzhou when Zhang Xiu goes south to fulfill the agreement. Mr. Zhang once said that Liu Bei was allowed to enter Jingzhou just to restrain Zhang Xiu. But let Zhang Xiu complete the plan of cutting Guo through the false road, which leads us to become Zhang Xiu''s wedding clothes. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Gu Yong nodded and said slowly: "Zhang Xiu is now stable in Guanzhong and powerful. It can be said that her edge will be exposed. You can''t compete with this man''s soldiers. "


    "What we need to do and can do now is to use Zhang Xiu to deal with sun CE, and at the same time consume Zhang Xiu''s strength to weaken Zhang Xiu. Of course, on the basis of weakening Zhang Xiu, it would be better to destroy sun CE. "


    "It''s just that the sun family has a foothold in Jiangdong, has the foundation of Sun Jian, and sun CE is wise and powerful, which is not easy to deal with. So I think it''s not suitable to attack Yuzhang county. After all, it''s too far away. "


    "Now the most suitable place is Lujiang County."


    Gu Yong continued: "because sun CE''s army is also attacking Lujiang now. Let Zhang Xiu''s army confront sun CE in Lujiang County. We strive to be a spectator and weaken Zhang Xiu. "


    "As long as the strength of Zhang Xiu is weakened, the Lord can wait for an opportunity to take back Nanyang County."


    "Alas, I really don''t understand why my Lord gave the whole Nanyang County to Zhang Xiu. In this way, Zhang Xiu can garrison in Nanyang County at any time, threatening the safety of Xiangyang. "


    Guyong continued: "today, as a Taiwei, Zhang Xiu''s official position is higher than that of the Lord. She controls Guanzhong and Liangzhou. She has a strong strength and can''t lose her tail. Lord, Jingzhou is very dangerous. If we don''t act again, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Liu Biao''s cheek twitched.


    He listened to Guyong''s words and felt that Guyong''s words were reasonable.


    How did he lose Nanyang County?


    At that time, I really lost my head.


    Gu Yong continued: "besides, Cai Yong and Kuai Yue may have secret connections with Zhang Xiu according to their humble position. But the Lord still indulged them. The LORD left these people under his command. This is a disaster. According to the humble opinion, the Lord should completely control Jingzhou and not leave these people behind. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao heard the speech and sighed: "Sir, you just came under my command and don''t know about Jingzhou. Jingzhou''s aristocratic families are intertwined. Let''s say that the Kuai family and the Cai family have been married to each other. "


    "Besides, the Pang family and the Kuai family are also married."


    "Jingzhou''s big family, move a family, is to lead a hair and move the whole body. We have no choice but to adopt the present method, try our best to reduce the military power in their hands, and bring all the military power into the hands of our officers. "


    Liu Biao said, "unfortunately, I didn''t meet my husband earlier."


    Gu Yong came to Liu Biao in the last three months.


    Liu''s position as an aide is just like Liu''s.


    Guyong smiles and says, "don''t worry, Lord. If you have a humble position, you will solve all the hidden dangers for you. As the humble position said, the first hidden danger is Zhang Xiu in the north, and the second is the aristocratic family in Jingzhou. ""This time, with the help of Jiangdong sun CE, Zhang Xiu''s forces will be weakened and Zhang Xiu and sun CE will fight. What we need to do is to unite Liu Bei. We should strengthen our own strength and awe the Jingzhou people. "


    Gu Yong said: "after weakening Zhang Xiu''s power, we will try to take back Nanyang County and finally solve the internal problems of Jingzhou. Only in this way can the LORD have a firm foothold in Jingzhou."


    Liu Biao said, "what you said is true."


    Liu Biao trusted Guyong.


    Because Liu Biao thinks from the bottom of his heart that the solid mediocrity is really for him. No matter Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang or Cai Mao, they are all considering their own interests and not putting his interests first.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant was talking outside the study.


    Liu Biao said, "come in!"


    The valet pushed the door and bowed, "my Lord, the soldiers report that the army led by Liu Yuzhou has entered Xiangyang. In another half an hour, we will arrive at the north gate of Xiangyang City. "


    "I see!"


    Liu Biao waved his hand.


    After retiring, Liu Biao looked at Gu Yong and said again, "Sir, I didn''t expect Liu Bei to arrive first. Liu Bei is the emperor''s uncle appointed by the emperor, and he is also the Yuzhou herdsman appointed by the imperial court. Now Liu Bei is coming with his army. You will go with me to meet him. "


    "Here it is


    Guyong should bow his hand.


    He has also heard of Liu Bei''s deeds, and knows that Liu Bei is the emperor''s uncle recognized by the emperor, and Liu Bei is not an ordinary person.


    Just, no chance to see.


    Now that there is an opportunity to meet Liu Bei, Guyong is willing to go.


    Liu Biao immediately summoned his subordinates Cai Mao, Kuai Yue, Zhang Yun, as well as his civil and military generals to lead them to the north gate of Xiangyang City.


    When they came to the gate of the north gate, Liu Biao and Gu Yong stood in the front.


    Later, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others followed.


    Kuai Yue''s eyes fell on Guyong. He had a conversation with Guyong, who is not simple. Kuai Yue thinks that such people are not ordinary people, but from the beginning to the end, he did not find more detailed information about Guyong.


    As a result, Kuai Yue had no way to start.


    If Gu Yong had not stirred up the wind and rain in Jingzhou and incited Liu Biao, Jingzhou would not have made adjustments and they would not have been scared by Liu Biao.


    "Come here, uncle Liu."


    In the crowd, suddenly someone called.


    Liu Biao, standing in the front, looked forward and saw a black line in the distance. With the continuous wriggling of the black line, the army is getting closer and closer to the north gate.


    Here comes Liu Bei.

 Chapter 613

    Liu Bei went south to Jingzhou to show his strength and brought 20000 elite soldiers.


    This is his main force.


    There are still some troops stationed in Runan County to avoid danger.


    Liu Bei rode in front of him. He was dressed in armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and he was in high spirits. When Liu Bei led the army to the north gate of Jingzhou, close to the gate, Liu Bei turned over and dismounted, strode toward the gate.


    Liu Biao also took the initiative to go out and greet him personally.


    When they first met, they saluted each other.


    Liu Bei folded his hands and bowed to the end. He said respectfully, "King Shenggong, you''re welcome."


    Liu Biao also Yidi to the end, said: "Liu Yuzhou, courtesy."


    Both of them respect each other. Whether Liu Bei or Liu Biao, they are all members of the Han clan. With this relationship alone, the two sides are close.


    Now it''s more about cooperation, so we respect each other.


    Liu Bei said with a smile: "when he was in Yuzhou, he heard Kong Ming say that jingshenggong''s governance of Jingzhou was very effective. It can be said that there was no room left for him to leave home at night. Today, I''m here to answer King''s invitation and learn from him. "


    At this time, in the army, a young man strode forward.


    It was Zhuge Liang who came.


    He stopped behind Liu Bei and said, "ZHUGE Liang, meet Liu Jingzhou."


    Liu Biao raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn''t expect that Kong Ming was playing for uncle Liu. It''s good, it''s good!" Speaking of this, Liu Biao''s eyes, but it is a glimmer of shadow.


    Once, Liu Biao recruited Zhuge Liang.


    But Zhuge Liang ignored it. Unexpectedly, after Zhuge Liang left Jingzhou quietly, he left Liu Biao, a feudal lord like him, and he went to work for Liu Bei.


    Even though Liu Biao calls Liu Bei Liu Yuzhou and knows that Liu Bei is the emperor''s uncle, Liu Biao thinks that Liu''s uncle is just the cry of the little emperor.


    Liu Biao was respectful to Liu Bei because he asked for it. In fact, he didn''t pay attention to Liu Bei.


    Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and said with a smile, "my Lord''s ambition lies in Kuangfu''s Han Dynasty. He deeply admired my Lord''s ambition and thought of himself as my Lord. That''s why I work for the Lord. "


    Liu Biao said, "I''ll take care of you."


    Liu Bei said: "King Sheng Gong, we are going to attack Jiangdong this time. I don''t know when Zhang Taiwei will arrive?"


    Liu Biao replied, "it should be fast."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a sentry came running from a distance.


    The sentinel galloped to Liu Biao and reported: "my Lord, Zhang Xiu''s army will arrive at the north gate in another two quarters of an hour."


    Liu Biao nodded and waved the sentry to retreat.


    At this time, Liu Biao said with a smile: "Liu Yuzhou, Zhang Taiwei''s army, will arrive in two quarters of an hour. Why don''t we wait here for a moment and go into the city with Zhang Taiwei? "


    "No problem!"


    When Liu Bei heard the speech, he answered directly.


    Although Liu Bei agreed, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hummed behind him.


    They have heard all kinds of Zhang Xiu, but they have never put Zhang Xiu in their eyes. In the eyes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei is the only hero in the world. The rest of the people are dregs, and they are not as good as Liu Bei.


    In particular, Liu Bei is the emperor''s uncle, even if Zhang Xiu is a Taiwei, so what?


    Why wait for Zhang Xiu.


    Although Guan Yu didn''t like it, he just stroked the long beard under his jaw. That a jujube red face, look cold, Danfeng eyes slightly narrowed, did not show what posture.


    But Zhang Fei is different.


    Zhang Fei was violent. When he heard that he had to wait for Zhang Xiu, he yelled: "Liu Jingzhou, let''s go first. Why do we have to wait for Lao Shizi''s Zhang Xiu. Now, we''re going straight into the city. When Zhang Xiu arrives, he will enter the city himself. Why wait for Zhang Xiu? You take my elder brother and wait for Zhang Xiu here. How can it be


    When Liu Biao heard the speech, a trace of smile passed through his eyes.


    That''s what he wants.


    That is to make the conflict between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei.


    Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei and explained: "Jing Shenggong, my three younger brothers are impatient and reckless. That''s what they are. They are not likable at all. He doesn''t have to worry about his words. "


    Liu Biao said with a light smile: "Liu Yuzhou is polite. It''s nothing to worry about."


    After a pause, Liu Biao said again, "I''m very grateful for Liu Yuzhou''s understanding. In a word, Zhang Xiu led 30000 troops to the south, which was the main force to attack sun CE. What''s more, Zhang Taiwei''s soldiers are all conquering. Especially when it comes to official positions, they are all above you and me, so we have to wait. Liu Yuzhou, please forgive me for the mistakes. "


    Gu Yong stood behind Liu Biao and nodded secretly.


    These words, he told Liu Biao long ago. Whether Liu Bei arrives first or Zhang Xiu arrives first, Liu Biao has his own words and will stir up the relationship between the two sides intentionally or unintentionally.It was done on purpose.


    When Liu Bei heard Liu Biao''s words, he saw a light in his eyes, but his face was calm. He was not impatient and said, "what Jingsheng said is true. It''s OK to wait. Zhang Taiwei killed Xiongnu, killed Li Xi and Guo Si, and captured Qiang people. I would like to see such a person. Just wait a minute. That''s fine


    After that, Liu Fei glared again.


    Zhang Fei hummed and stopped talking, but the look on his face was also very unhappy.


    He looks angry.


    Zhuge Liang saw all this in his eyes, and his eyes fell on Liu Biao, but he was a little surprised. Because just now a series of words, are to stir up their relationship with Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao alone can''t do that.


    This is Zhuge Liang''s judgment.


    Zhuge Liang knew the situation of Jingzhou, and even knew that the Pang family, Kuai family and Zhang Xiu had something to do with each other. He was surprised to see a middle-aged man standing beside Liu Biao in front of Kuai Yue and Cai Mao.


    He doesn''t know the man.


    Zhuge Liang lived in Jingzhou for many years, and he was very clear about the personnel of Jingzhou. But he didn''t know the person in front of him. He was a bit eccentric.


    Zhuge Liang came forward and said, "King Shenggong, I don''t know what to call the people around you?"


    Liu Biao put his hand on his forehead and said with emotion, "Oh, I forgot to introduce you. Come, come. I''ll introduce Liu Yuzhou and Kong Ming. His name is Gu Yong. Gu kougu, the doctrine of the mean, is my aide. "


    "Yes, Mr. Gu!"


    Zhuge Liang came forward and saluted.


    He suddenly understood that the reason why Liu Biao asked them to go south must be Gu Yong''s idea. Because according to Liu Biao''s temperament, he may be sold by Zhang Xiu, and he has to help Zhang Xiu count the money.


    It must be Guyong''s suggestion.


    This person is not simple.


    Zhuge Liang had his first impression.


    Gu Yong''s face was calm. He bowed his hand and said, "I have heard the name of Zhuge Wolong for a long time in Xiangyang. In Jingzhou, everyone knows the name of Kongming. Unfortunately, I can''t work with Kong Ming. "


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes shrink. If Gu Yong''s words, he is even more suspected of provoking Liu Biao.


    However, Zhuge Liang chuckled and said, "under Liu Jingzhou, there are Mr. Kuai Yue, general Cai Mao, and other capable men and scholars to assist. There is no shortage of Zhuge Liang. On the contrary, it''s under my command that I''m in charge and can show my strong points. I am a greedy man. Only my Lord can accommodate me. If I work for Liu Jingzhou, I will not harm Liu Jingzhou. "


    Gu Yong was surprised at Zhuge Liang''s reply. Although Zhuge Liang is young, it is not simple. Through some self abasement, he digs away from this topic.


    Liu Bei is also aware that there is provocation in Gu Yong''s words. He takes the initiative to take the talk and talks with Liu Biao.


    As they talked and laughed, time passed unconsciously.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, the mighty sound of horses came from far and near.


    The sound of horse''s hooves was very rapid, and the hooves of war horses trampled on the ground. The sound of the ground shaking, mighty. With the horses running fast, the ground is full of smoke and dust.


    Liu Bei and Liu Biao are staring at the distance. In their eyes, they are shocked.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu!

 Chapter 614

    Although the cavalry of the flying bear army is not as elite as the cavalry of Langya camp, it is also quite extraordinary. Tens of thousands of horses are surging and ferocious. At that time, the cavalry arrived at the north gate of Xiangyang City.


    Cavalry formation, horses neighing.


    This scene shocked the civil and military generals in Jingzhou.


    Even though the elite under Liu Bei''s command, they all stare big eyes and look shocked.


    Guan Yu stroked his long beard, and Danfeng''s eyes narrowed. The green dragon Yanyue sword in his hand suddenly grasped it, with a dignified look on his face. One side of Zhang Fei, but his eyes are wide open, tiger eyes with a strong sense of war. He doesn''t care about thousands of troops and horses. As long as he is unhappy, even if there are thousands of troops and horses in front of him, he can kill them.


    Soon after the cavalry formation, Zhang Xiu''s army arrived.


    After the Chinese infantry arrived, Zhang Xiu rode forward. Wang Yue, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong followed, and Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Guoyuan came forward.


    "Zilong!"


    Liu Bei suddenly exclaimed.


    Zhao Yun follows Zhang Xiu, hears Liu Bei''s cry, hugs fist to return a gift, does not have many words. On the way south to Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu gets the news that Liu Biao invited Liu Bei to Jingzhou. She has told Zhao Yun the news so that Zhao Yun can be prepared.


    Therefore, Zhao Yun is not surprised.


    Liu Bei saw that Zhao Yun just arched his hand and didn''t answer him. A trace of sadness passed in his eyes.


    Zhao Yun is a strong general he appreciates.


    He knows how to lead soldiers to fight.


    He is loyal and courageous, and has excellent martial arts skills.


    I didn''t expect that when Zhao Yun reappeared, he was already under the command of Zhang Xiu. Such a situation, Liu Bei''s heart is very lost. Fortunately, Liu Bei is not an ordinary person. He soon adjusted his state and didn''t say much.


    Just now, he was a little excited.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept, saw Zhuge Liang and Liu Biao. Through the royal guards, he knew that Zhuge Liang had surrendered to Liu Bei and that Guyong existed. Zhang Xiu stepped forward and said, "uncle, I''m late. Let my uncle wait for a long time, and hope Haihan! "


    Liu Biao said with a smile: "not too late, not too late, just right."


    "It''s not too late. I''ve been waiting for half an hour. So many people are waiting for him alone outside the city. Is that funny? "


    Loud voice, suddenly sounded.


    But Zhang Fei spoke.


    Zhang Fei looked at Zhang Xiu, his rough cheek full of anger. If you say, just wait for such a small white face as Zhang Xiu, Zhang Fei can endure it. But Zhang Fei didn''t expect that Zhao Yun turned to Zhang Xiu.


    With Zhang Fei''s impatience, he could not help but sarcasm.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Fei. He knows about Zhang Fei. Especially the honor of Zhang Fei, even if Liu Bei and Liu Biao do not introduce, Zhang Xiu can understand.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Liu Bei again.


    In her first life, Zhang Xiu once met Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei had been under Cao Cao for some time after Zhang Xiu''s surrender, so Zhang Xiu knew Liu Bei.


    I admire Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu, the first generation, did not know Liu Bei''s final achievements.


    Through the history books, Zhang Xiu knew Liu Bei''s final achievements. It''s not easy for a person who has been defeated many times, who came from a poor family, who only relies on the name of the royal family, to finally break into such a big foundation.


    Almost most people don''t have Liu Bei''s tenacity.


    Zhang Xiu admires Liu Bei''s ability.


    However, although Zhang Xiu admires Liu Bei, she may not look down on him.


    Liu Bei is a man with a disposition to throw away his own woman and run after a war. In the battle of Xuzhou, Liu Bei''s woman was captured by Lu Bu; in the battle between Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Liu Bei slipped quickly, and the woman was captured by Cao Cao; in the battle of Xinye after going south, Liu Bei''s woman was left behind again. If Zhao Yun hadn''t rescued her in time, Liu Bei''s woman and her son would have been captured together.


    Every time, Liu Bei''s woman was taken prisoner.


    To a certain extent, Liu Bei and his ancestor Liu Bang are similar. They are all from poor backgrounds, but they all rely on their tenacity to build a foundation.


    However, both Liu Bang and Liu Bei put women in the front.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t like.


    The whole family, they''re all pissed.


    Zhang Xiu looked indifferent and said with a light smile: "Liu Yuzhou''s dog ran out and couldn''t help barking. Isn''t it true that Liu Yuzhou can''t even restrain the dogs around him? "


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, so that the two sides immediately on the tip of the needle to the wheat awn, a targeted.


    Zhang Xiu saw the change of Liu Bei''s face, but she didn''t pay attention to it. With the relationship between Zhao Yun and Liu Bei, and the relationship between Zhuge Liang and him, it is impossible for the two sides to reconcile.


    What''s more, Liu Bei is here to deal with sun CE. Both sides must have their own calculations.


    There can be no room for relief.


    In such a case, Zhang Fei opened his mouth to accept it, and Zhang Xiu accepted it back without hesitation. He is not a kind man and doesn''t like to be dealt with, so he doesn''t care how Liu Bei thinks.Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Zhang Taiwei, although the third brother speaks freely. But I''m afraid it''s beneath Zhang Taiwei''s dignity. As Zhang Taiwei, why should he be angry with his third brother? If you do, you are losing your identity. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Oh, Liu Yuzhou''s words are so light. Shiyuan, come out. "


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Pang Tong came forward and replied with a smile.


    He most likes Zhang Xiu''s disposition, has the kindness to repay the kindness to have the revenge.


    It''s manly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shiyuan, your mouth has always been sharp. Look at the person with a red face and a green hat. It''s Guan Yu, the second younger brother of Liu Yuzhou. Guan Er Ye is a big man. He once fought with Lu Bu. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Shiyuan, you are a young man, and you are a little man. Come on, come on, give your best regards to Guan Er Ye''s parents, brothers and family. What will Guan Er ye do if he is such a big man? "


    Pang Tong was not a good man. When he was in Jingzhou, he was generous.


    On hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Pang Tong blurted out: "general Guan, your face is red, like a girl. Is it that women are ashamed of visiting brothels. Or, like to apply rouge on a woman''s face. People like you are rare. Your family, though I haven''t seen them before


    Guan Yu is arrogant. He is not a man to swallow his anger. Especially the other one with a red face was satirized with rouge, which was taboo by Guan Yu. As soon as he heard Pang Tong''s words, he killed him without saying a word.


    "Thief, take your life!"


    Guan Yu angrily drank, and his green dragon Yanyue sword swung up and came straight at Pang Tong.


    "Guan Yu, don''t be wild!"


    There was a loud drink.


    At this time, Huang Qizhong rushed out. Huang Zhong''s horse galloped. In a twinkling of an eye, he was on Guan Yu''s way. He swung his sword and easily cut off Guan Yu''s attack.


    Zhang Xiu shrugged, looked at Liu Bei again and said with a smile, "Liu Bei, do you see it? This man can''t stand provocation, especially men. "


    "Guan Yu is still like this. Why don''t you persuade him to calm down?"


    "If this matter is left with me, it means that I am not ordinary, I have been humiliated, and I have to swallow it. What you said is really inappropriate. What I am most tired of is people who are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, who always allow others to be generous, but they are small bellied. "


    Zhang xiutut said: "because next to such a person, I don''t know when I have to be struck by thunder."


    "Puchi!"


    Pang Tong couldn''t help laughing when he heard the speech.


    Sima Yi and others smell speech, the corner of the mouth is also a smile, this is the most common style of Zhang Xiu.


    A mouth is extremely sharp.


    Liu Bei was shriveled and frowned.


    He no longer and Zhang Xiu theory, eyes a turn, fall in Guan Yu and Huang Zhong fight place. Liu Bei is very confident in his second brother''s martial arts. He believed that Guan Yu could win and beat Zhang Xiu''s generals.


    After Guan Yu won, everything was easy to say.

 Chapter 615

    Liu Biao saw the struggle between the two sides in his eyes and did not interfere or stop it. He and Gu Yong looked at each other, and there was a successful look in their eyes.


    For Liu Biao, the result he wants is the opposition between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei.


    Only when the two sides check and balance each other can the situation be stable.


    Once Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are intimate, Liu Biao''s Jingzhou is quite dangerous. So he would like to see that happen.


    Gu Yong told Liu Biao that his plan was to stir up relations between the two sides. However, the current situation has exceeded Liu Biao''s expectation, because he has not yet said much, and has already been in conflict.


    At this moment, everyone''s eyes fell on Guan Yu and Huang Zhong.


    Guan Yu''s martial arts are very strong.


    But Huang Zhong''s martial arts are at the peak now. Even Huang Zhong often competed with Zhang Xiu and made a breakthrough in martial arts. After the battle between Huang Zhong and Guan Yu, at the beginning of the battle, he felt that Guan Yu''s moves were fierce and almost unstoppable.


    It can be said that there is no casting.


    After a moment of fighting, he found that Guan Yu''s power was declining, and his previous ferocity was no longer there. Huang Zhong''s own explosive power is lasting, but Guan Yu has no such explosive power.


    The two sides exchanged hands quickly, and in the twinkling of an eye, more than a hundred moves were made.


    Huang Zhong''s offensive is still as fierce as a river. On the contrary, Guan Yu is still fierce, but his momentum is not enough.


    With Huang Zhong, Guan Yu is gradually in the downwind. Even though Guan Yu has never been defeated, it will be sooner or later that Guan Yu is defeated by Huang Zhong.


    "Second brother, I''ll help you!"


    As soon as Zhang Fei saw that Guan Yu had fallen into a bad situation, he was anxious and rushed out immediately. The Zhang eight snake spear in his hand was as fast as lightning. When he saw Zhang Fei approaching, a figure rushed up behind Zhang Xiu.


    Come white horse white robe, a tiger head Zhanjin gun, straight take Zhang Fei.


    It was Ma Chao who went to war.


    Now he has become a tiger general under Zhang Xiu. Now, Ma Chao''s wife is in Chang''an. In order to provide a better environment for his wife and children, Ma Chao must work hard.


    The golden spear of tiger head Zhan comes out, intercepts Zhang Fei''s Zhang Ba snake spear, and blocks Zhang Fei''s attack.


    "Kill


    Ma ultra low drink, tiger head Zhanjin gun constantly waving.


    He didn''t keep a little bit, but went all out to fight against Zhang Fei. Ma Chao''s face changed slightly when they met for a moment. He is not Zhang Fei''s opponent. After all, Ma Chao is not at the peak of his career.


    Rao is so. Even if Ma Chao is slightly weaker, he will not lose in a short time. So he resisted Zhang Fei''s attack. He just needs to hold Zhang Fei and wait for Huang Zhong to win.


    "Get out of here. Get out of here, grandfather Zhang."


    Zhang Fei is angry to drink, the Zhang eight snake spear in the hand, continuously poke out.


    Zhang BA''s snake spear, waving, runs like a millstone. But Ma Chao''s shooting method is more flexible. Even if Zhang Fei''s move is just fierce, it doesn''t reach the point of crushing Ma Chao.


    In a short period of time, it was impossible to win.


    When Huang Zhong fought with Guan Yu, Guan Yu''s momentum gradually declined and his weakness became more apparent.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes and said with a smile: "Liu Yuzhou, when the tiger prison was closed. You three brothers fight against Lv Bu in turn to make Lv Bu return to Hulao pass. Now, we have to fight with our swords. "


    Liu Bei puffed his cheek.


    There was a helpless look on his face.


    His original hope was to use Guan Yu to subdue Huang Zhong, so as to win the war, at least with face. I didn''t expect that Guan Yu''s powerful martial arts could not win, or even fall behind.


    Fortunately, Zhang Fei can win steadily, but he can''t win in a short time.


    "Cloud long, still don''t withdraw to come back."


    Order Liu Bei to see it directly.


    After Liu Bei gave the order, Guan Yu''s green dragon Yanyue sword attacked two moves fiercely. The blade was sharp, and Huang Zhong was forced to retreat temporarily, so he quickly retreated.


    Huang Zhong didn''t come forward to pursue.


    But Zhang Fei kept on attacking.


    He has the upper hand and is not willing to withdraw at this time.


    Seeing that Liu Bei only withdrew Guan Yu, Zhang Xiu raised a smile and said, "why, Liu Yuzhou only let Guan Yu withdraw, but left Zhang Fei behind. Are you ready to fight again. Ma Chao is not the only one under my command. If you want to fight, you don''t want to leave when you are defeated. If we don''t withdraw now, is it a contest? "


    Liu Bei''s eyes narrowed and ordered: "Yide, withdraw immediately?"


    From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to subdue Ma Chao with the help of Zhang Fei. At least, he should prove his strength in front of Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun. But what Zhang Xiu said is that Liu Bei can''t stand his ground. He can''t let Zhang Fei fight. He can only give orders.


    "Boy, you''re cheap."


    Zhang Fei''s Zhangba snake spear shook and turned back to the army.


    Ma Chao''s face was cold.


    He came to the back of Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, I will be incompetent and weaker than the other party."Zhang Xiu smile, not anxious not impatient way: "you and the other party''s age difference, about ten years old.". Today''s you, although the muscles and bones grow, but not to the peak time. Now, you are slightly defeated. It doesn''t take ten years, but only five years at most. Your strength is enough to compete with each other. Ten years from now, you can beat Zhang Fei. He is not at the same age to fight with you. It''s no shame to lose to Zhang Fei. "


    "Thank you


    Ma Chao returned to the army.


    At this time, the fight between the two sides was temporarily settled.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t do anything from the beginning to the end. Now, it''s not time to fight Zhang Fei and Guan Yu. Now I''m in Jingzhou, and I''m going to attack Jiangdong. There are plenty of opportunities.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Liu Bei again and said, "Liu Yuzhou is the head of a state. As a man, he should be the head of a state. If you can''t restrain your subordinates, don''t bring them out. Otherwise, sooner or later, it will bring you disaster. I don''t care about today. "


    Liu Bei felt resentful when he heard this.


    What is called Zhang Xiu regardless of comparison, with all things, is his fault the same?


    But Liu Bei didn''t say much.


    Liu Biao stood up at this time and said with a smile: "Zhang Taiwei and Liu Yuzhou are just the so-called" no fight, no acquaintance. ". What happened just now is just a misunderstanding. Don''t worry about it. "


    After a pause, Liu Biao once again said, "whether it''s Zhang Taiwei''s army or Liu Yuzhou''s army, they all arrived in Xiangyang. The army of the two is stationed outside the city for the time being. I will provide you with all the necessary food and grass. I set up a banquet in the city and invite you to the banquet. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and asked Huang Zhong to take charge of the garrison.


    Liu Bei also arranged for sun Qian to stay in the camp.


    Then, a group of people went to the city.


    Liu Bei was surrounded by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang and Jian Yong.


    The rest of them are in the army.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, there were Wang Yue, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Guoyuan, all of whom followed Zhang Xiu.


    They entered the city and came to the prefecture.


    In the hall, get ready for dinner.


    When the people on both sides sat down, there were attendants who came in and served meat and wine. Liu Bei''s people sit on the left, while Zhang Xiu''s people sit on the right.


    As for Gu Yong, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and other Liu Biao''s people, they sat in the back row.


    Liu Biao asked people to fill the bottle with wine and said with a smile: "thanks to Zhang Taiwei and Liu Yuzhou, they all came to Xiangyang to help me. Here''s to you two, please


    With that, Liu Biao looked up and drank.


    Zhang Xiu smiles, takes the wine bottle in her hand and drinks the wine in the cup.


    So is Liu Bei.


    However, both Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei are hostile to each other. What happened before, now that is to say, peace has been maintained on the surface, and the relationship between the two sides has been settled.

 Chapter 616

    After Liu Biao''s toast, his subordinates toasted one after another. After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, all of them drank a lot, and the atmosphere was warm.


    At this time, Liu Biao put down his wine bottle and said slowly, "my plan was to attack Yuzhang county. But the position of Yuzhang county is to the south, which is not conducive to the advance of troops. "


    "Moreover, today''s sun CE is not in Yuzhang County, but in Lujiang County. So my plan is that our three armies will join forces to attack Lujiang County. "


    Liu Biao inquired: "I don''t know, are you willing to adjust the plan?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I have no problem!"


    He answered directly.


    Because when Zhang Xiu went south, the key point was not to attack sun CE, but to capture Jingzhou. Although Liu Bei''s troops were in Jingzhou, they actually had some influence on Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Seizing Jingzhou is no more than a matter of time.


    Liu Bei put down his wine bottle and said, "I don''t have any opinions. If we attack sun CE, we will attack sun CE. However, since I have agreed to Liu Jingzhou, I have one small condition. "


    Liu Biao said: "Liu Yuzhou, please say."


    Liu Bei said: "I and Jing Shenggong are the same branch of the Han Dynasty. They should keep watch and help each other. What I mean is that I hope to make an alliance with King Sheng Gong and help him. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Liu Biao laughed and said, "no problem, no problem. I can''t wait for Liu Yuzhou''s request. "


    Liu Bei said with a smile: "in that case, I am even more duty bound to attack sun CE."


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    Liu Biao thanks again and again, very happy.


    Now Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei are willing to send troops, and Liu Bei is also allied with him. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu''s plan, which was weakened, will surely succeed, and even cause great damage to sun CE.


    It can not only weaken Zhang Xiu, but also capture Lujiang County, which is the best of both worlds.


    Zhang Xiu sees all this in her eyes, but the corners of her mouth show disdain. Even if Liu Bei and Liu Biao are united, what will happen?


    All this is in vain!


    Zhang Xiu is very clear about Liu Bei''s calculation and Liu Biao''s calculation.


    But Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    This time, it depends on who counts who?


    Liu Biao no longer spoke to Liu Bei. He stood up and came to Zhang Xiu with a bottle full of wine. He said with a straight face, "Jiang Ping, my uncle, here''s to you."


    At this time, Liu Biao called Zhang Xiu''s words, which was intended to pull the relationship.


    Zhang Xiu got up and said, "uncle, please!"


    "Please


    Liu Biao answered with a smile, took up the bottle, looked up and drank it.


    As soon as the words changed, Liu Biao said again: "speaking of today''s conflict with Liu Yuzhou outside the city, you two don''t know each other. Jiang Ping, you and Liu Yuzhou are my help. If we work together to defeat sun CE, it will be very easy. But if they are hostile to each other, they will not succeed. "


    Liu Biao said: "as a peacemaker, I hope that Jiang Ping and Liu Yuzhou can turn the fight into friendship, and do not forget the hatred. Jiang Ping, would you like to give me face


    Zhang xiudao said: "my uncle said that. What can I say? What''s more, my uncle and I are a family. One family doesn''t talk about two families, does it? "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Liu Biao listened with a look of approval.


    At this time, Liu Biao went to Liu Bei again. After another word, he got Liu Bei''s consent and asked Liu Bei to take the initiative to say that he was willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao, the apparent peacemaker, has gone through the motions.


    The banquet was over and it was almost evening.


    At this time, they left separately.


    All the officials under Liu Biao left one after another, leaving Guyong alone.


    Liu Biao''s eyes fell on Gu Yong and asked, "Sir, what do you think of today''s situation?"


    "Very good!"


    Gu Yong said with a smile: "Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu already have a bad relationship. Next, the two sides will certainly calculate with each other. This attack on Lujiang County is bound to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. "


    "That''s good!"


    Liu Biao said: "this time, I''m going to fight in person. But on our side, how many people are suitable to take to fight? "


    "At least 30000 elites!"


    Gu Yong''s eyes were solemn and said: "there are 30000 people brought by Zhang Xiu. If our military strength is less than 30000, it will not be looked down upon. At least, there have to be 30000 people. "


    Liu said: "then send 30000 troops to wenpin as the main general. In the army, I only believe in wenpin. I''m not sure if it''s Cai Mao. "


    Guyong said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Biao and Guyong discussed various matters of sending troops, and Guyong just got up and left.


    Liu Biao sat alone in the hall and continued to taste the wine.


    On the other hand, Liu Bei took his men on his way quickly. After he left the city, he went back to his barracks outside the city.In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Fei''s face was full of anger. After drinking, there was a trace of red haze on his face. He said angrily: "brother, Zhang Xiu deceives people too much. We came to Jingzhou to help Liu Biao. Why are we afraid of Zhang Xiu? At that time, we were not afraid to fight Zhang Xiu directly. Zhang Xiu is too rampant. "


    Liu Bei scolded: "third brother, stop talking nonsense."


    Zhang Fei said angrily, "how can I talk nonsense? Zhang Xiu is clearly hostile to his elder brother."


    Guan Yu said: "brother, I also think that Zhang Xiu is not easy to get along with. What''s more, even people like Zilong are quiet and obedient to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is such a shameless person. "


    "Enough!"


    Liu Bei saw Zhang Fei and Guan Yu open their mouths one after another and said, "once we fight with Zhang Xiu and annoy Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will mobilize the army of Guanzhong to attack Runan from Nanyang County. Can we resist it?"


    Brush!


    Zhang Fei and Guan Yu didn''t speak at all.


    Two people look helpless, as if his head was drenched in a basin of cold water, to a cool heart. No matter Zhang Fei or Guan Yu, they are not very good at dispatching troops to fight. But two people also know, once Zhang Xiu mobilize troops to attack Runan, they can''t resist.


    After all, Liu Bei''s troops are still very weak!


    Of course, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to attack Liu Bei in a short time. After all, attacking Liu Bei is tantamount to attacking Cao Cao.


    This is equivalent to a war with Cao Cao.


    Zhuge Liang said slowly: "general Guan and three generals, now the Lord is based in Runan at the beginning, and his foundation is not stable, so it is not suitable to confront Zhang Xiu head-on. In fact, when we come to Jingzhou, we don''t really want to attack sun CE, but mainly cooperate with Liu Biao. "


    "As for the rest, the two generals don''t care."


    "Of course, if you go to the battlefield, you can pit Zhang Xiu and weaken her. That''s the best. Zhang Zhuxiu''s strength is also a threat to Zhang Guanzhong. "


    Zhuge Liang gave the answer.


    When Zhang Fei and Guan Yu heard this, they both nodded their approval.


    Zhang Fei said: "what the military strategist said is very true. It''s better for the military strategist to say so. When we get to the battlefield, we''ll pit Zhang Xiu again."


    Zhuge Liang changed his words and said again: "I saw the Lord shout Zilong at the gate of the city. At that time, one of Zhang Xiu''s generals bowed back and didn''t say much. Who is that man? What does it have to do with the Lord? "


    Liu Bei sighed and said, "Zilong''s name is Zhao Yun, which means Zilong. When I once lived under Gongsun Zan, Zhao Yun was the commander of Baima Yicong. "


    "At that time, my relationship with Zilong was excellent. It happened that brother Zilong passed away. He went home, so we separated. And later, I also left Gongsun Zan, there is no contact


    Liu Bei said: "my plan was to recruit Zilong. I didn''t expect that he is now obedient to Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Fei snorted: "Zhao Yun is really a bright pearl."


    Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "water flows to the lower part, and people walk to the higher part. The elder brother is weak. Zhao Yun climbs high. That''s normal. We can''t take care of other people''s affairs. "


    Zhuge Liang ignored the words of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu and asked, "Lord, how about Zhao Yun?"


    He believed in Liu Bei''s vision.


    Because Liu Bei''s ability to see people is quite accurate.


    Liu Bei replied, "Zilong is a loyal and courageous general. Zhao Yun is especially good at riding and is good at leading cavalry. And I happen to have such a general under my command. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "in this way, I''ll try my humble position. I don''t want to recruit Zhao Yun. At least I want to alienate the relationship between Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu."


    "What should we do?" Liu Bei asked


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s heart had expectations. He is eager for talents. Zhao Yun is a talented person. He hopes to get Zhao Yun''s loyalty.

 Chapter 617

    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "this matter is easy to hear!"


    With that, Zhuge Liang took the pen and paper, quickly wrote a letter, handed it to Liu Bei and said, "Lord, after this letter is packed, give it to Zhao Yun."


    Liu Bei looked at it carefully, with an unexpected look on his face, and said, "military strategist, the letter was painted with some changes, but he finally made it clear. Do you mean to use this letter to alienate the relationship between Zilong and Zhang Xiu? "


    "Yes


    Zhuge Liang nodded and answered.


    In his eyes, he passed a light and said: "according to the Lord''s description of Zhao Yun, this man is loyal and courageous. In this case, he received the letter, even after reading the contents of the letter, he must take the letter to find Zhang Xiu. No matter how much Zhang Xiu trusts Zhao Yun, the content of the letter will certainly make Zhang Xiu suspicious. This is the plan of estrangement. "


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "if you do this, Zilong will see through. Even, he would think I was counting on him. "


    Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said, "if the Lord can attract Zhao Yun, he is the best. This is the best plan. But what if you can''t get it? "


    "Consider the worst in everything, so the first thing is separation. Once the estrangement is successful, even if Zhao Yun sees through the master''s plan, even if Zhao Yun knows that the master intentionally did it, but the master does it for Zhao Yun''s sake, which is justifiable. "


    "It is not difficult to resolve this contradiction in the future."


    Zhuge Liang said: "so weigh the pros and cons, I think we can have a try. Of course, it''s all up to the Lord. If the Lord thinks it''s not right, he doesn''t have to take it. "


    After listening, Liu Bei thought it over.


    "Brother, I agree with the military adviser''s suggestion. Zhao Yun, a boy, should clean up. How can he repay his elder brother when he was in Youzhou


    Guan Yu also said: "I agree with the third brother''s words."


    "Shut up


    Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei attacks Zhao Yun and yells.


    He didn''t like it for both of them.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, thought about it and said, "if so, try it first. When I see Zilong, I''ll make an apology to him. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord is wise!"


    In his eyes, a glimmer of expectation passed. He wanted to see how Zhang Xiu would deal with it?


    You know, it''s not easy.


    It''s a dissension, after all.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter to the camp and asked the soldier to go to the camp. The camps of both sides were not in the same place. After walking for some time, the soldiers came outside the camp and said they wanted to see Zhao Yun. Soon after, Zhao Yun went out of the camp and saw the soldiers who came to deliver the letter.


    The soldier handed the letter and said, "General Zhao, this is from the governor of the state."


    "Goodbye!"


    With that, the soldier turned and left.


    Zhao Yun looked at the envelope of the letter and saw the four words Zilong Qinqi. He knows Liu Bei''s characters, which are written by Liu Bei. Zhao Yun frowned, took the letter back to the camp, opened the envelope.


    When Zhao Yun took out the letter, he saw the contents of the letter and frowned.


    The words on the letter are elegant and free, not Liu Bei''s handwriting. And this letter, painted, altered, abridged, and abridged, looks like it''s just too much to say. But the whole content of the letter didn''t say anything, just that Liu Bei asked Zhao Yuncheng to meet at Yunxiang square.


    Zhao Yun''s eyes narrowed and murmured: "Xuande Gong, have you learned to calculate?"


    Zhao Yun had an idea in his mind about the content of the letter and understood it.


    Liu Bei did it on purpose.


    Once Zhao Yun goes to see Zhang Xiu with a letter and wants to go out to see Liu Bei, it is very likely that Zhang Xiu will be suspicious. However, Zhao Yun is a magnanimous person, and he has everything to say to others.


    Zhao Yun picked up the letter and strode out of his barracks to the Chinese army.


    Outside Zhang Xiu''s camp, Zhao Yun asks for a meeting. Soon, the soldiers asked Zhao Yun to enter. After entering, Zhao Yun saw Zhang Xiu, who was checking the map, and said, "Lord!"


    Zhang Xiu put down her brush and said, "Zilong is coming. I want you to call elder martial brother instead of Lord. Why do you have to be so outspoken between you and my brothers. There''s no one else here. Just sit down. "


    Instead of sitting down, Zhao Yun came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, this is Liu Bei''s invitation. He told me to go to yunxiangfang tomorrow morning. I have something to say. I''m going to tell Liu Bei what I''m going to do. Since he is humble and submissive to his master, he should be free from Liu Bei''s obsession and avoid Liu Bei''s entanglement. "


    Then he handed the letter and stood aside.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and saw that the handwriting on the letter had been deleted, smeared and deleted. She looked up at Zhao Yun and said with a smile: "Zilong, this letter is very interesting."


    Zhao Yun said: "the letter I received in my humble position is just like this. I have never made any changes."


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "I know that this letter is interesting because it has two aspects of calculation. But the two calculations are for one thing. "Zhao Yun said: "please make it public!"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "first, if you receive a letter and think it''s not a big deal, conceal the letter and go to see Liu Bei quietly, maybe the news will come out secretly and let me know."


    "Second, when you receive a letter, as it is now, you do not hide it, but send it to me. However, the letters were constantly deleted, altered, and smeared. It was obvious that they wanted to cover up and make it clear


    "The two possibilities are for one thing, to alienate the relationship between you and my brothers."


    "Make me doubt you."


    "We should let the relationship between you and my brothers have cracks and crevices."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said with disdain: "with Liu Bei''s temperament and ability, we can''t do this kind of thing. This technique, that is, Zhuge Liang will use. It seems that Zhuge Liang is silent and intends to split you and my martial brothers. "


    Zhao Yun said: "my Lord is wise!"


    At this time, he saw Zhang Xiu carefully analyze, his heart was also relieved.


    He was really worried about Zhang Xiu''s suspicions.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know about Liu Bei''s mind. Liu Bei has a good way of dealing with people and things, and he has the unity of knowledge and practice, which is not simple. "


    Zhao Yun didn''t answer.


    When it comes to Liu Bei, he doesn''t know what to say.


    It''s hard to say.


    Zhang Xiu is not easy to say.


    Seeing Zhao Yun''s appearance, Zhang Xiu said, "Zilong, do you know how to say a sentence? A gentleman can deceive him. You are loyal and courageous, too enthusiastic, such a person, too easy to be calculated. For example, this letter calculated me, but why didn''t it calculate you? "


    The expression on Zhao Yun''s face passed a trace of sadness.


    Earlier, he considered this layer. Liu Bei wants to make an appointment with him, but he gets this fancy letter, which really disappoints Zhao Yun.


    Zhao Yun doesn''t care much about the calculated things.


    He just thinks Liu Bei has changed.


    In the past, Liu Bei was generous, frank, sincere, ambitious and concerned about the country and the people. But now Liu Bei, as if changed a person like, using such a villain means.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "tomorrow morning, I will accompany you to yunxiangfang. I have something to say to Liu Bei. "


    Zhao Yun said, "is the Lord going?"


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu was very domineering and said, "I''m your elder martial brother. Although I''m not your elder brother, your father and brother are not here, and I''m your elder. Elder brother is like a father. Your business is my business. How can I not go? Liu Bei''s calculation is all for me. Anyway, I don''t care. But if Liu Bei wants to count you, he just can''t do it. "


    Zhao Yun was moved in his heart and said, "that''s all. I''ll go with my elder martial brother tomorrow morning."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "it''s late at night. Go back and have a rest early."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yunying went down and turned to leave.

 Chapter 618

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early. After breakfast, she leaves the barracks with Zhao Yun and goes straight to the city. When they arrived at yunxiangfang, they sat down by the window on the second floor and waited for Liu Bei.


    The second floor at this time, because it is still early, there are not many people.


    On the second floor of yunxiangfang, there is almost no one.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu was here, met Xu Shu, and then took Xu Shu for his own use.


    Now, back here.


    Looking at the familiar scene in Yunxiang square, Zhang Xiu was filled with emotion. Now it''s September. Looking back from the window of yunxiangfang, the willows in the pond are swinging and the golden autumn is bleak. The scenery is quite pleasant.


    In particular, a string of chrysanthemums, competing for beauty, is extraordinary.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun wait quietly.


    Step on it! Step on it!


    A sound of footwork came from the stairs.


    Then a tall figure came out of the building.


    It''s Liu Bei.


    After Liu Bei, followed by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang. These people are the standard characters around Liu Bei. No matter where Liu Bei goes, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all follow.


    As soon as Liu Bei walked out of the corridor, he saw Zhao Yun. But the next moment, when he noticed Zhang Xiu, the expression on his face suddenly became cold and frowned.


    Why is Zhang Xiu here?


    He made an appointment with Zhao Yun today in the hope that he would first apologize to Zhao Yun, then use his feelings and reason, and finally Zhuge Liang would use his eloquence to attract Zhao Yun''s attention.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu is here.


    With Zhang Xiu in, a lot of words can not be said, it is not convenient to say.


    Liu Bei''s expression immediately returned to calm. With a smile in his mouth, he said: "unexpectedly, Zhang Taiwei also came to yunxiangfang with Zilong. It''s too early, but it''s too late. "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "not early, just appropriate."


    With that, he waved to Liu Bei to sit down.


    Liu Bei sat down opposite Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun, and Zhuge Liang also sat down. Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, like door gods, stand behind Liu Bei like two iron towers.


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "no matter where Liu Yuzhou goes, there are two men who are like door gods to protect him. This style and atmosphere is really extraordinary. I''d like to find two of them, but I can''t find them. "


    Liu Bei drew his cheek and explained, "Zhang Taiwei is joking. Yunchang and Yide are neither my guards nor my generals. They are my brothers."


    "Admiration, admiration!"


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "I can''t do the skill of corporal Li Xian in Liuyu Prefecture. I''ve heard that Liu Yuzhou, general Guan and general Zhang all share the same table and bed. Such a good brotherhood is enviable. "


    Liu Bei said: "Zhang Taiwei''s praise is wrong."


    It''s just that there are some strange things in Liu Bei''s mind. Zhang Xiu''s words seem to be praise, but in his heart, he always feels that something is wrong. It seems that Zhang Xiu has no good intentions.


    Zhuge Liang gently shakes the feather fan, without interrupting.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I really can''t do it like Liu Yuzhou. Usually at night, I can''t even accompany my own women. How can I have time to sleep with my generals and brothers? "


    "It''s strange that several big men are crowded together. It''s not as good as Longyang. Why squeeze together every day. I heard that Liu Yuzhou is nearly 40 years old, but he has no children under his knees. This is not good. "


    "I have a hospital in Chang''an, especially Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo. South Zhangji, North Huatuo, both of them are under my command. I don''t know. Liu Yuzhou needs miracle doctor Hua and Zhang to treat you. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile.


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face suddenly changed.


    His chest was full of ups and downs, and anger grew in his heart.


    Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are even more furious. They roll up their sleeves and are ready to go forward. Zhang Xiu is really bullying people. But as soon as they rolled up their sleeves, Liu Bei glared at them, and they had to stand back.


    Zhao Yun sat beside Zhang Xiu, but he was embarrassed.


    When you think about it, it''s strange.


    Liu Bei has been married for many years and has no children so far. Is there really any problem? Why do I have to sleep with Liu Bei when I sleep with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?


    Zhao Yun shook his head in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu is always so sharp.


    He didn''t submit to Zhang Xiu for a long time, and witnessed the dialogue between Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao, which made Yuan Shao speechless. Liu Bei is the same as Yuan Shao in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Nothing to say.


    Zhang Xiu looked up at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and said with a smile, "Oh, are Guan Er ye and Zhang San ye angry. Alas, I don''t mean you. Even for the sake of your brother, you shouldn''t sleep with Liu Yuzhou any more. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "don''t you think about yourself? Don''t you think about Liu Yuzhou? Not for your sister-in-law? There are three ways to be unfilial. At Liu Yuzhou''s age, there are no children under his knees. This is a very serious problem. "When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard the speech, they were angry at first, and then they were silent. The issue of Liu Bei''s heirs is of great concern to both of them, because the issue of heirs is very important.


    Are they sleeping too much?


    At this time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood behind Liu Bei and said nothing.


    Zhang Xiu has a smile on her face. She only knows how to make fun of Liu Bei. It''s useless to continue to make fun of Liu Bei, because Liu Bei is a ninja turtle! Liu Bei didn''t say a word when he made such a joke. It''s not easy to make Liu Bei angry or lose his mind.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said, "Liu Yuzhou has an appointment with Zilong. I don''t know what''s important?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "it''s a private matter for my Lord to make an appointment with General Zhao. However, Taiwei Zhang interferes in private affairs. He doesn''t think it''s too easy to manage them. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu heard the speech and laughed.


    Zhuge Liang looked calm and asked, "why does Zhang Taiwei laugh?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Kong Ming, you met me in Xiangyang at the beginning, and you know my nature. Generally speaking, I always like to meddle in my own business, especially my own. You Kongming wrote a messy letter and sent it to Zilong. You calculated both Zilong and my official. You said, "should I come?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "it''s just that there are a lot of mistakes in the letter. It''s just that they are deleted and corrected. Zhang Taiwei is serious. Besides, Zhao Yun''s loyalty to you does not mean that you have to take care of all private affairs. Is it difficult? Do you want to arrange Zhao Yun''s marriage? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "you''re right. I really want to take care of Zilong''s marriage."


    With that, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun and said, "younger martial brother, right?"


    "Yes


    Zhao Yun replied with a smile.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is his elder martial brother. It''s reasonable for Zhang Xiu to take care of his marriage.


    Zhuge Liang''s eyebrows rose, and his face had a look of consternation. He just heard that Zhang Xiu called Zhao Yun as his younger martial brother, which surprised Zhuge Liang.


    So is Liu Bei.


    At this moment, Liu Bei had a bad feeling in his heart, as if things were beyond expectation.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes gradually sharpened, throwing a voice: "you just heard very clearly, I call Zilong younger martial brother. Zi Long and I are brothers of the same school. I''m a elder martial brother, and he''s my younger martial brother. "


    "If the elder brother is like a father and the son is a dragon, do you think I should take care of it?"


    "Then again, you Zhuge Liang, at least, is also a big man. You''ve really lost Wolong''s face by making this kind of dissension plan


    "As for you, Liu Bei, you always claim that you treat people with sincerity and regard benevolence and righteousness as your boast."


    "Why, you do the same calculation."


    Zhang Xiu is very strong and says: "you calculate other people, I can''t manage. But I don''t allow it to be calculated on my head or on my younger martial brother''s head. You can do too much. "


    When Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang looked at each other, their faces were stunned.


    It''s missing!


    They did not expect that Zhao Yun was Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother.

 Chapter 619

    Judging from her age, Zhang Xiu is younger than Zhao Yun. But it''s incredible that Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun are the same elder martial brothers. It''s just the truth.


    Because Zhao Yun did not refute.


    After Zhang Xiu said something, she stood up and said, "Zilong, I''ll wait for you at the gate of yunxiangfang. You can tell me the next thing."


    With that, Zhang Xiu turned and left.


    This scene, let Zhao Yun a time some dismay, because he thought that Zhang Xiu must be in from beginning to end.


    I didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to leave directly.


    Zhang Xiu so free and easy out of the second floor, Zhao Yun''s heart, but also rose a warm current. He is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother and is close to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu made the decision for him, trusted him, valued him, and made Zhao Yun grateful.


    Zhao Yun has his own ideas, not a puppet. Zhang Xiu left space for him, is respect for him, Zhao Yun is more grateful, so that Zhang Xiu followed things, Zhao Yun no longer a bit of mustard.


    When Zhuge Liang saw this, he was also filled with emotion.


    Zhang Xiu is really not simple.


    There is a purpose and a way to behave.


    Liu Bei took a deep breath, waved his hand and said, "all of you, step back!"


    At the moment, Liu Bei has understood that it is impossible for him to recruit Zhao Yun because of what Zhang Xiu said just now and the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun.


    Zhuge Liang sighed and turned back. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei want to talk and stop, but they don''t say anything at last. They retreat with Zhuge Liang.


    Both of them are suffocating.


    It''s too much.


    Zhang Xiu is really crazy.


    There are no other people on the second floor of yunxiangfang, only Zhao Yun and Liu Bei. At the moment, the two people sat face to face, but some strange, the atmosphere is very awkward.


    In the past, they talked about their ambitions and future plans. There were countless words to say. Now they meet, but they are speechless. They don''t know where to start.


    Liu Bei''s heart, rise thick loss, as if lost something.


    After half a sound, Liu Bei said, "Congratulations, Zilong. Now I have found the master. Zhang Xiu is your elder martial brother. If you want to show your ambition in the army, it will be very good. "


    Zhao Yun said: "thank you, Xuande Gong!"


    With one sentence, Zhao Yun didn''t know what to say.


    After last night''s letter, he suddenly found that Liu Bei, whom he knew, had already gone away. Liu Bei in front of him, let him feel strange, this is not the real understanding of Liu Bei.


    So Zhao Yun didn''t say anything.


    Originally, Zhao Yun had something to say to Liu Bei in his heart, which he had already considered last night. But now, silence is better than sound, and everything is silent.


    It''s all about it.


    "Zhang xiuniao, I don''t like you. I''ll fight you!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice rang out.


    But Zhang Fei did it.


    As soon as the voice came out, Liu Bei and Zhao Yun stood up and rushed downstairs. As if nothing had happened, Liu Bei slowed down a little. Then he saw that Zhao Yun had already passed him. Without looking at him at all, he went downstairs.


    Alas


    Liu Bei''s heart, feel lost. He quickened his pace and came down quickly.


    At the moment, in the hall of yunxiangfang, there was a thumping sound.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhang Fei are fighting each other. Neither Zhang Xiu nor Zhang Fei was armed. They fight each other with their bare hands. Zhang Fei was born with divine power, powerful and powerful. But Zhang Fei is not flattering in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is far more flexible than Zhang Fei.


    Two people fight less than a moment, Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Fei exposed a flaw, left hand a right hook, lightning hit. The fist came out like wind and fell on Zhang Fei''s right cheek.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The powerful and heavy fist had already hit Zhang Fei''s cheek.


    This is Zhang Fei''s head shaking, avoiding the crucial position. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s fist will hit Zhang Fei''s temple. Rao is like this. Under the impact of peiran''s fierce force, Zhang Feizi is in pain, his gums are bleeding, and a trace of blood spills from the corner of his mouth.


    Zhang Fei was in pain and immediately prepared to fight back. Just Zhang Fei''s right fist just hit, but see Zhang Xiu hands out, directly grabbed Zhang Fei''s right wrist, a side body is back fall.


    Zhang Fei was caught off guard and fell to the ground.


    "Bang!"


    The crash sounded again.


    Zhang Fei''s back hit the floor hard, which made his own skeleton ache.


    "Ah


    Zhang Fei roared, and a carp stood up. He is proud of the power, in front of Zhang Xiu, is not the slightest advantage, which makes Zhang Fei angry.


    Zhang Fei rushes forward directly. When he rushes in front of Zhang Xiu, he sees Zhang Xiu squat down and swipe his leg out."Pa!"


    Zhang Fei lost his balance when his legs hit him.


    "Plop!"


    Zhang Fei fell to the ground again. Rao Shi''s body was rough and fleshy, and he could be beaten one after another. He was restrained by the moves. He also showed his teeth in pain, and his face was full of pain.


    "Weak, too weak."


    Zhang Xiu clapped her hands and said with disdain: "at the beginning, you three brothers attacked Lv Bu together. I don''t know whether Lv Bu let go of the water or whether you three brothers were more powerful. They were able to fight against Lv Bu. It''s a surprise. It''s not worthy of the name. "


    "Zhang Xiu, I''ll kill you."


    Zhang Fei is extremely irritable. He stands up and bears the pain of his body. He wants to do it again. Now he has no snake spear in his hand. He can''t show his martial arts.


    If Zhang Fei had a snake spear, he would be more effective and would not be afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu disdained, said: "Zhang Fei, if you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. It''s just, I''m afraid you''re not enough for me. You are just like Zhang Fei. You can''t see me in front of Zhang Xiu. The world is so big that there are people outside and heaven outside. Although Zhang Fei is fierce, it''s not one or two that can defeat you under Zhang Xiu''s command. "


    "Kill


    Zhang Fei is furious and wants to fight again.


    "Third brother, stop it


    At this time, Liu Bei''s voice came.


    Liu Bei had already stepped down and quickly walked up to Zhang Fei. His eyes were cold and he said, "Yide, don''t stop."


    "Brother, I don''t like Zhang Xiu."


    Zhang Fei''s face was bruised with purple and blue, and his huge eyes were full of killing intention. He was always proud of his own martial arts, but in front of everyone, he was defeated by Zhang Xiu, and his heart was filled with reluctance.


    Zhang Xiu shrugged and said, "Liu Yuzhou, do you see it? This is your brother. He''s rough, he doesn''t have a brain. Alas, your two brothers are brave generals on the battlefield, which is enviable. "


    "Unfortunately, it''s useless."


    "Guan Yu is arrogant, headstrong and self righteous. Zhang Fei is arrogant and domineering. You can restrain these two people, but the others can''t


    "It is the duty of a general in the army to obey orders. As long as it''s my officers and men, as long as I say a word, it''s absolutely forbidden. These two brothers under your command can''t achieve such an effect. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head, tut tut said: "it''s a pity, it''s a pity." After that, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun and asked, "Zilong, have you finished?"


    "It''s over!"


    Zhao Yun nodded and answered.


    Before he saw Liu Bei, he seemed to have something to say. However, after seeing Liu Bei, he has nothing to say now, so after a simple sentence, he will not speak any more.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "now that you have finished, let''s go."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun turned over and got on the horse. As soon as he took two steps, he suddenly looked back at Zhang Fei and Guan Yu and said, "Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, I''m Zhang Xiu waiting for you to fight at any time."


    "Drive!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu shakes the reins of the horse, she drives the horse away.


    Zhao Yun followed closely, and the two quickly rode on the road, and soon disappeared in the street.

 Chapter 620

    Liu Bei finally withdrew his eyes and looked at Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang with a sigh.


    It was a terrible day.


    After a long silence, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang again. At this time, although Zhuge Liang was indifferent, he was also disappointed because of the failure of the plan.


    If Zhuge Liang''s plan is successful, this will not be the case.


    It''s impossible to alienate!


    On the contrary, it was Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Fei rubbed his painful fist, and the bruise on his rough cheek was still there. He twisted his body twice. Although he was sore before, he now recovered and murmured: "Zhang Xiu is worthy of being Zhao Yun''s elder martial brother. Zhiniang thief, Zhang Xiu looks gentle. I didn''t expect the strength to be so strong. "


    Guan Yu is very surprised, surprised way: "three younger brother, you when have gone all out?"


    Guan Yu has been watching the contest just now. He watched Zhang Fei being hanged. He was puzzled. When it comes to power, even Guan Yu is not as good as Zhang Fei, but Zhang Fei is defeated.


    Zhang Fei scratched his head, but said, "I''ve tried my best, even with 12 points of strength. I''ve used all my strength to nurse. But I''m still no match for Zhang Xiu. This boy''s strength is no less than that of Lu Bu''s three family slaves. "


    Guan Yu''s eyes widened and he was shocked. Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are so powerful.


    Liu Bei also returned to his senses. He said in a deep voice, "third brother, are you serious?"


    "Seriously!"


    Zhang Fei nodded solemnly and said, "really."


    Zhuge Liang said: "when she was in Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu once captured Cai Mao alive, then fought wenpin hard, and directly captured wenpin alive. As a result, Zhang Xiu was able to coerce Liu Biao and establish herself in Nanyang County. Zhang Xiu has always been very good at martial arts. I''m a bit surprised. I didn''t expect that even three generals are not Zhang Xiu''s opponents. "


    Zhang Fei said: "it''s not using weapons. If weapons are used, it''s not known. But this kind of Zhang embroidery is not simple. Yesterday, outside the gate of the city, Zhang Xiu''s two generals were also valiant generals. "


    Liu Bei said with emotion: "under the command of Zhang Xiu, there are so many talents."


    "Come on, let''s go back to camp."


    With a sigh, Liu Bei led Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang away. It is meaningless to stay at this time.


    Next, just wait for Liu Biao to send troops.


    The news of what happened in yunxiangfang quickly spread to the prefecture. When Liu Biao got the news, he looked at Gu Yong sitting in his study and said, "Sir, it''s not what you expected. There was another conflict between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei. It is said that Liu Bei wanted to meet Zhao Yun under Zhang Xiu, so that there was a conflict. The contradiction between the two sides is becoming deeper and deeper


    Gu Yong stroked his beard and confidently said: "Zhang Xiu and Zhuge Liang are in conflict. Now there are more Zhao Yun and Liu Bei. In fact, there are Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang. They are related to each other. There are many disputes between them. I suggest that we wait two days. I hope that these two days, they can conflict again. If there is another conflict, or even a fight, it will be interesting. "


    Liu Biao said, "it depends on your plan."


    Guyong thought for a moment and asked, "Lord, are you ready to provide food for both sides?"


    "It''s ready!" Liu Biao replied, "according to my husband''s plan, I have allocated 40000 stone grains. Today, I will deliver the grain and give 20000 stones to one side. "


    "Yes!"


    Guyong nodded his head and said: "twenty thousand stones per square, this is the average share. In fact, Zhang Xiu had more troops and more horses. Zhang Xiu must have complained about such a plan. It''s up to Zhang Xiu how to deal with it. "


    Liu Biao said: "Sir, you have a brilliant plan. You are sure to succeed."


    Gu Yong said: "all of them are saints!"


    Liu Biao shook his head and said, "I''m a saint. I''ve been cheated. I''m not a saint. If it had not been for Mr. Wang, I would not have understood it now. "


    Gu Yong''s mouth went up, passing a thought-provoking smile, and said: "my Lord is modest." After that, Guyong said: "Lord, I''m going to do the rest of the work."


    "Good!"


    Liu Biao nodded and watched Gu Yong leave.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun rode on their way. When they were ready to leave the city, they passed through a street and a warrior in black came to guide them. Zhang Xiu did not refuse, followed the Black Warrior around a few times, came to a house.


    Entering the courtyard, I saw a quiet and elegant man sitting in the courtyard.


    This man is Kuai Liang.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu folded her hands and bowed to the end, saying: "Mr. zirou!"


    Seeing this, Kuai Liang quickly avoided it.


    He is a subordinate of Zhang Xiu, dare not bear the great gift of Zhang Xiu, zhengse way: "Lord, what is this, break Sha humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "zirou worked hard for me in Jingzhou, so that I could develop rapidly with the help of Jingzhou. Without zirou''s plan, I would not be today. Zirou deserves my courtesy. "


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord praise."Two guests and host take their seats.


    Zhao Yun stands behind Zhang Xiu, with an old look, but he is surprised. When he heard what Zhang Xiu called Kuai Liang, he knew that this was Kuai Liang, and even Kuai Liang was obedient to Zhang Xiu, which was really not simple.


    Zhang Xiu said, "zirou asked me to come. What''s the matter?"


    Kuai Liang said: "our Kuai family, Cai family, Pang family and Huang family have been targeted by Liu Biao. It''s not convenient to do things and move. Therefore, I can only meet you in this way. I came to see you because last night, I found some news about Guyong. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    For this, Zhang Xiu is looking forward to it, because if it were not for Gu Yong, there would not have been so many changes in Jingzhou, and Liu Bei''s army would not have stepped in.


    Without Liu Bei''s army''s intervention, when Zhang Xiu arrived in Xiangyang, he could use CAI Mao, Kuai Yue and others to build up Liu Biao''s watch, and then take control of Xiangyang and further take the whole Jingzhou.


    All because of the emergence of Guyong, Zhang Xiu''s plan has changed.


    Kuai Liang said: "when we first investigated Guyong, we found that this man appeared out of thin air without any sign. He claims to be from Xuzhou, but in fact, his accent is different from Xuzhou. "


    "But we can''t find Gu Yong''s whereabouts. We can only keep an eye on him. Rao is so, also don''t see him have any action. In addition, Guyong is really planning for Liu Biao, without any selfishness, which leads us to fail to grasp Guyong''s situation


    "Later, the humble had an idea and suddenly investigated the diet."


    Kuai Liang said: "I found that Guyong didn''t like to eat our Jingxiang dishes. Instead, he liked to eat Wujun dishes. His taste is very similar to that of Jiangdong Wujun. "


    "That''s why I sent people to Wujun to investigate. I don''t know. I found a man named Gu Yong in Wujun. However, this Gu is not a Gu Gu, but a Gu who takes care of you, a yong who is graceful. "


    Kuai Liang said: "unfortunately, Gu Yong of Wu county is a very talented official under sun CE. This period of time, it seems to disappear, no trace


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu suddenly understood.


    Guyong!


    Gu Yong!


    Unexpectedly, the person beside Liu Biao turned out to be Gu Yong from Jiangdong.

 Chapter 621

    Gu Yong is a talented man in Jiangdong. When he was young, he worshipped Cai Yong as his teacher. When he was weak, he became an official. He had a good command of politics, a good command of people, and outstanding achievements. In history, after Sun Quan came to power, Gu Yong was valued by Sun Quan and became an important official in the east Wu Dynasty.


    To Zhang Xiu''s surprise, sun CE asked Gu Yong to come to Jingzhou as a spy. Today, however, Gu Yong is only the head of a county in Jiangdong and has not yet entered the decision-making center.


    Kuai Liang said: "Lord, how can we deal with Gu Yong? Whether it is necessary for the Kuai family to kill Gu Yong. "


    "No need!"


    After a little thought, Zhang Xiu shook her head and refused: "today''s Kuai family, Cai family and other families have become the thorn in Liu Biao''s eye and are not suitable for shooting. You should not act rashly now. "


    "If you take action, Liu Biao may do it. Because Liu Biao should have done it. With Liu Bei''s constraints, it is more difficult for me to intervene. If you don''t act, Liu Biao will not dare to deal with the Jingzhou ethnic groups easily. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you don''t need to deal with Gu Yong right now. Just let me arrange it. Now that you know Gu Yong''s background, the next thing is easy to do. "


    Kuai Liang said, "my Lord, if you say that, you will not interfere in your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what you have to do is to protect yourself. The rest, for the time being, should be ignored. "


    "Thank you


    When Kuai Liang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was quite moved. Zhang Xiu young ambition, still as before, treat people still modest, more for his sake.


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "is there anything else?"


    Kuai Liang said: "no!"


    After a pause, Kuai Liang said again: "Lord, I need to wait for my hand. I just need an order. I am duty bound to the Kuai, Cai, Pang and Huang families. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "it''s time for you, but it''s not now."


    Kuai Liang said: "master, hurry to leave. It''s easy to arouse Liu Biao''s suspicions when he disappears for a long time."


    No longer delay, Zhang Xiu gets up and leaves with Zhao Yun.


    After they walked out of the yard, they quickly returned to the official road and went straight out of the city. Back in the barracks, Zhang Xiu directly arranged for people to send Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Guoyuan to the Chinese Army''s big account.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Kuai Liang told me an interesting thing when I entered the city. Gu Yong, the counselor under Liu Biao''s command, has his real name Gu Yong. Gu Yong, the caretaker, Yong Yong, is a man of sun CE in Jiangdong. "


    Sima Yi and the other three were stunned.


    "Ha ha..."


    Immediately, Pang Tong took the lead in laughing and said with emotion: "Liu Biao, this man is really eyeless. I don''t even know what happened to the people under my command. Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others have worked for the Lord and are on his side. Unexpectedly, a Gu Yong came suddenly. He thought he was planning for him. Unexpectedly, it''s sun CE. "


    Guoyuan and Sima Yi also chuckled.


    Liu Biao is a joke.


    Zhang xiudao said: "now that we know Gu Yong''s identity, we have to consider how to make use of it. And how to deal with Gu Yong. "


    Sima Yi said: "if you master Gu Yong, you will master the assassin''s mace. The whole situation will change because of Gu Yong''s advice to Liu Biao. He suggested that he contact Gu Yong secretly to take him down. "


    "Not right!"


    Pang Tong shook his head and said, "Zhongda, let''s get in touch with Gu Yong. What if Gu Yong doesn''t cooperate? In other words, Gu Yong seems to be lying to us. We can''t find him


    "If you do this, you can only scare the snake."


    "If you want to do it, you have to knock Gu Yong with a stick to stun him, which can completely restrain him. Otherwise, we must not do it without authorization. Although it overturned Gu Yong, it could hit Liu Biao. But with Liu Bei, it doesn''t make much sense to crack down on Liu Biao. "


    Pang Tong said: "in my opinion, what we should do is to use Gu Yong to deal with Liu Bei and Liu Biao at the same time. Only in this way can we kill two birds with one stone. "


    Sima Yi said, "it''s not easy!"


    It is extremely difficult to take advantage of Gu Yong and deal with Liu Bei and Liu Biao at the same time, thus undermining both sides.


    Guoyuan sat down and didn''t speak. He is also a talented man under the command of Zhang Xiu. However, Guoyuan spent most of his time in Chang''an, dealing with the affairs of Taiwei''s house.


    In the vast documents, Guoyuan''s reputation is unlimited.


    It doesn''t mean Guoyuan has no wisdom.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Guoyuan and said, "Zi Ni, how do you think about it?"


    Zi Ni is the word of Guoyuan.


    Guoyuan was not in a hurry. He replied, "Lord, you have to beat a snake seven inches. To deal with Gu Yong, it is not appropriate to contact him or assassinate him. "


    "I believe that Gu Yong''s weakness lies not in himself, but in his family. Gu Yong came to Xiangyang in disguise as a spy. To deal with a spy, just take his family. "


    "Only in this way can Gu Yong be restrained."Guoyuan said: "the royal guards under the Lord are all over the country. Although the power of the royal guards is weaker in Jiangdong, as long as the royal guards arrive in Wujun, they can take Gu Yong''s family away quietly. "


    "As long as Gu Yong''s family is in hand, it''s easy to intimidate him. Of course, if Gu Yong didn''t even care about his family''s life, it would be useless to deal with him. "


    "I have nothing to say about my humble position."


    Guoyuan said: "at that stage, we can only lift the lid and expose Gu Yong''s identity."


    Sima Yi raised her eyebrows and was very surprised.


    Guoyuan is not simple.


    When I opened my mouth, it turned out to be such a vicious plan.


    Pang Tong was also surprised. He didn''t expect that Guoyuan''s plot was so vicious, but it did work.


    People don''t talk much.


    As soon as you open your mouth, you hit the nail on the head.


    After hearing Guoyuan''s words, Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed. Previously in the city, he did not agree with Kuai Liang and let him deal with Gu Yong. On the one hand, he did not want the Kuai family to be exposed and fall into Liu Biao''s calculation; on the other hand, his plan was not perfect. He wanted to discuss the best strategy with his subordinates.


    Guoyuan''s proposal is the most feasible strategy at present.


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    As Zhang Xiu''s voice fell, Wang Yue directly stepped in. He quickly came to Zhang Xiu and asked, "what''s your order?"


    Zhang Xiuxian first said the general situation of Gu Yong, and finally said: "you immediately dispatch the royal guards to Wujun County in Jiangdong. You must bring Gu Yong''s family to Jingzhou as soon as possible."


    "In this battle, I will try my best to delay. Before the decisive battle, we must bring back Gu Yong''s family. "


    "Two months!"


    "I''ll give you two months at most."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "can the royal guards under your command complete the task?"


    From Jingzhou to Wujun, go south by water from Xiangyang, join the Yangtze River, and then go east along the Yangtze River. Ships at this time are not like ships of later generations.


    If the wind is downwind, the speed is extremely fast. If Zhang Xiu takes two months to go against the wind, he will be even slower.


    Even so, Zhang Xiu still has to delay. We must give the royal guards enough time to prepare. Once they are on the battlefield, it is not easy to arrange things if there is no one to restrain Gu Yong.


    Wang Yue thought for a while and solemnly said, "don''t worry, my Lord. In two months, I will bring back Gu Yong''s family. The royal guards promise to complete the task. This time, Shia will act in person. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I look forward to Shi A''s triumphant return. On the day of Shi A''s triumphant return, I personally celebrate Shi A''s success."


    "Thank you


    Wang Yue also looked forward to it.


    Without delay, he turned to withdraw from the camp of the Chinese army, went back to the camp where he lived, and called Shia.

 Chapter 622

    "Sit down!"


    Wang Yue said.


    "Thank you, teacher!"


    After thanking him, Shia sat upright in the tent.


    Wang Yue asked: "Shi ah, it''s not a short time for you to work together as a teacher for the Lord."


    Shi a replied: "up to now, it has been more than a year."


    Wang Yue stroked the stubble under his jaw and said with emotion, "yes, but in more than a year, my Lord has now taken the post of Taiwei, ruling Liangzhou, Guanzhong, Nanyang County, and even Jingzhou."


    "This is the best chance in life."


    "I''ve been the leader of the royal guards under the Lord since I was a former Buyi. I have great responsibilities and great power. "


    "You are my disciple, and you also work in the royal guards. But from beginning to end, all in my shadow. If you want to be an official, you have to be in front of me. If you want to do something, there is an old man in front of you. "


    Wang Yue said, "it''s not easy for you to make contributions."


    Shi a heard Wang Yue''s words, and suddenly he was a little frightened.


    It sounds strange.


    Shi a stood up, knelt down in front of Wang Yue with a plop, and solemnly said, "only with the teacher''s instruction can I achieve today''s success. All my life, I would like to serve my teacher. Others, I don''t care. What I want is just three meals a day. It''s enough to have enough to eat and drink and not worry about food and clothing! "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Wang Yue heard Shi A''s words, he began to drink and scold.


    "Excuse me, teacher!"


    Shia kowtowed to the ground and immediately pleaded guilty.


    Shia has no father or mother. It is Wang Yue who teaches him the truth and Wang Yue who teaches him the martial arts so that he can grow up smoothly. It can be said that although Wang Yue is Shi A''s teacher, he is like a teacher and a father.


    In front of Wang Yue, he respected Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue saw Shi A''s appearance and said, "I''m a counsellor. Please stand up. How can a seven foot man kneel down and stand up easily? "


    "Yes


    Shia just stood up.


    Wang Yue said slowly: "good man, how can we not fight for the title of general and Marquis. Now the Lord himself has not been granted a marquis, so we will not consider these for the moment, but we should always consider them. You are no longer young. You should get married and take charge of your own affairs. All your life, you will never be able to be alone with me. This time, I won a task for you. "


    Shia said: "please show me the teacher!"


    Wang Yuexian said about Gu Yong, and finally said: "my lord arranged for the royal guards to go to Wujun to bring Gu Yong''s family to Jingzhou. I personally recommend you to take people to perform the task. "


    "My Lord said that as long as it is successful, I will celebrate for you."


    "Gu Yong is the key to this war, which is related to the breakthrough of the Lord. So when you go to Jiangdong this time, you can only win, not lose. As long as it is this time, we can bring back Gu Yong''s family smoothly. Your future is limitless. "


    Wang Yue said: "this is an opportunity for you. You can''t fail. I''m looking forward to your return from victory. "


    Shi a was deeply moved by the speech.


    He knew that this was an opportunity Wang Yue had won for him, which was hard won.


    Shia said: "don''t worry, the teacher, the disciples will return triumphantly."


    Wang Yue took a box from his seat and put it on the desk. As he pulled open the lid of the box, the sword inside was revealed. This sword is long and thin, which is quite different from the ordinary sword.


    Wang Yue took out his sword and held it on the handle.


    "Bang!"


    As Wang worked harder, the blade came out of its sheath. There was a bright light on the blade, which was like a flood of autumn water, cold and cold.


    The body of this sword is three feet three, and the blade is only two fingers wide. Close to the hilt, there are two seal characters of thunder on the blade.


    Shia looked eager when he saw the sword.


    He always wanted the sword.


    The name of the sword is thunder. It was Wang Yue''s sword when he was young. Not only that, the thunder sword was forged by Wang Yue himself. The reason why it was named thunder means that it is as fast as thunder.


    Thunder sword is light and fast.


    This is the way of Wang Yue''s sword move when he was young. A sword is as fast as lightning and can easily kill the enemy.


    When Shi a followed Wang Yue, he was also mentioned when Wang Yue was young. At that time, Wang Yue borrowed a thunder sword, rode alone, wandered the world and killed countless criminals.


    Wang Yue even went to the northwest to kill the barbarians with one sword.


    At that time, thunder sword was famous in the world.


    The Rangers all over the world are awed to hear Wang Yue''s name and thunder sword. Today''s Wang Yue has already used Epee instead of thunder sword. He has reached the state that Epee has no edge and no skill.


    The thunder sword has been sealed up for a long time and has not been used for many years.


    Shi A''s way today is to take a light and flexible sword. The blade is fast and can get the enemy''s key. Shi a knew thunder sword. He had been salivating for a long time. He hoped Wang Yue could pass it to him.He followed Wang for many years, but he never got thunder sword. To Shi Alai, it seems that there is something missing.


    For Shi Alai, thunder sword is like inheritance.


    Wang Yue returned the sword to the scabbard, held the scabbard in his hand, and said: "I will pass the thunder sword to you this time. I hope you will succeed with thunder in your hand. "


    "Thank you, teacher!"


    Shi a came forward solemnly, spread out his hands and took the thunder sword.


    The moment he grasped the sword, he grasped it with both hands, took a deep breath and said, "teacher, this is Jiangdong. If you don''t finish the task, I swear not to come back. If you don''t succeed, you will be benevolent. "


    Wang Yue said, "I''m waiting for your good news."


    "I''m leaving!"


    Shia took the thunder sword and turned back.


    Wang Yue looked at Shi A''s leaving back, with a touch of worry and expectation on his face. He was worried because it must not be easy for him to go to Jiangdong and bring back Gu Yong''s family.


    In Jiangdong, sun CE knew that Gu Yong had been a spy. Under such circumstances, he would try his best to protect Gu Yong''s family. It''s hard to save people, and it''s hard to leave Wujun.


    Wang Yue is looking forward to it because Shi a is not young. He expects Shi a to be a real mainstay of the royal guards when he comes back.


    Although Shi''a now has high prestige in the royal guards, it all depends on Wang yuezai. But Shi a Ben has no official body. He is just the leader of the royal guards.


    Wang Yue hopes that Shi a will be appointed by Zhang Xiu himself.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of footwork came from outside the account.


    "Newspaper!"


    The soldier said, lifted the curtain to enter, and reported: "my Lord, I just received the news from Liu Biao. Two days later, the army left Xiangyang and headed for Lujiang County. In terms of Liu Biao, Liu Biao personally led the army, and wenpin was appointed as a general, commanding 30000 soldiers to fight. "


    "I see!"


    Wang Yue waved his hand and asked the soldiers to step down.


    Then, Wang Yue walked out of the barracks and went straight to the Chinese army tent to report Liu Biao''s troops to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, but eyes are squint up.


    We''ll send troops in two days!


    This time is too fast. He needs to delay and can''t send troops immediately. After Zhang Xiu asked Wang Yue to step down, she was thinking about the way to delay time. After thinking for a moment, he had an idea.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu immediately took Wang Yue away from the barracks and went straight into the city to the prefecture. If he wants to postpone the time of sending troops, he has to arrange it now and discuss it with Liu Biao.


    When arriving at the prefecture, Zhang Xiu asked the porter to report, and he went straight into the hall to wait.

 Chapter 623

    Soon, Liu Biao entered from outside the hall. Today''s Liu Biao is very high spirited and complacent. With Gu Yong''s help, he thinks that he can control Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength and attack sun CE, so he is happy.


    Liu Biao is very happy. He is much younger and full of vitality. When Liu Biao saw Zhang Xiu, he said with a smile, "Jiang Ping has come to find me. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang xiudao: "uncle, I''m in a hurry. It''s about sending troops in two days."


    Liu Biao said, "what''s wrong with sending troops two days later?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the great event of the country lies in sacrifice and military! Now when it comes to sending troops, our army''s alchemists think that it is not conducive to sending troops after two days. I don''t think it''s proper to send troops two days later. I hope it can be postponed. "


    "Ah


    Liu Biao was surprised to hear that.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu put forward such words.


    However, Liu Biao was also prepared and said, "Jiang Ping, two days later, it''s an auspicious day. This day is suitable for sending troops. When I choose the day, I have already checked it. "


    "Uncle Miao


    Zhang Xiu''s face was not red and breathless, and said calmly, "the alchemists under my command do not just think about the good or bad days, but calculate the time of sending troops according to the eight characters of my birthday. Although the day after two days is auspicious, such a day is not suitable for me. So I don''t think it''s appropriate to send troops two days later. "


    After Liu Biao heard this, he was bluffed into a daze.


    I didn''t expect that.


    Liu Biao didn''t doubt the truth of Zhang Xiu''s words. The reason is very simple. Liu Biao heard about Zhang Xiu praying for rain in Guanzhong. After several months of drought in Guanzhong, Zhang Xiu prayed for rain himself, and it rained cats and dogs, which solved the Drought Crisis in Guanzhong.


    With this premise, Liu Biao thought that it was very normal for Zhang Xiu to believe in Fang Shi''s theory.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t know what Liu Biao thought.


    If you know, you''ll laugh to death.


    He prayed for rain because the people under his command decided the time of rain according to the celestial phenomena. Zhang Xiu doesn''t really believe in gods and monsters.


    A lot of times, that''s false.


    In particular, what he said just now does not conform to the eight characters of his birthday. It is also Zhang Xiu''s nonsense, which is a temporary response. When Zhang Xiu was in the military camp, she thought of a delaying strategy, that is to say, two days later, the day was not good.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Biao even saw the day of sending troops and said that two days later, it was an auspicious day. No way, Zhang Xiu can only say that two days later, not in line with his birthday.


    After a moment''s silence, Liu Biao suddenly asked, "every time Jiang Ping goes to war, did he look at the days?"


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu replied solemnly.


    The more he is like this, the more Liu Biao believes it. Liu Biao thinks that this is the power of ghosts and gods. Thinking about every battle of Zhang Xiu, she is invincible. She has never failed, and she has won a complete victory.


    Think of such a situation, Liu Biao deeply feel that Zhang Xiu is very particular about, and he should be so.


    Liu Biao leaned forward slightly and asked again: "every time Jiang Ping went out, he looked at the days. I just don''t know who are the people around you? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the alchemists under my command are headed by Zuo Ci, and there are some other alchemists."


    "Zuo CI?"


    When Liu Biao heard this, he was surprised and said, "is it Zuo CI who can work ghosts and gods? I heard that Zuo CI lives in Tianzhu Mountain. He is not only knowledgeable, but also good at alchemy. This man can be said to have the ability to communicate with gods. He is a very powerful man. "


    "Exactly so!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Liu Biao moved his buttocks twice, looking forward to it, and asked, "is Zuo CI in your army?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Zuo CI is in Chang''an. He is behind me."


    "Alas..."


    Liu Biao sighed and said, "I didn''t expect Jiang Ping to be escorted in this respect. It seems that I missed it. In the future, I should also pay attention to this. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "uncle, when it comes to such things, if you believe it, you will be psychic. If you don''t believe it, you won''t be. This kind of thing, all depends on the individual. I believe it. My uncle may not be the same as me. "


    "I believe it. I believe it, too."


    Liu Biao nodded his head busily. He firmly believed that the reason why Zhang Xiu was able to attack and conquer and win the war was that the selection of the day of sending troops was the most crucial and the most important link.


    As soon as the words changed, Liu Biao asked, "two days later, Jiang Ping is not suitable for sending troops. So when will Jiang Ping be suitable for sending troops?"


    "Nine days later!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to answer directly.


    He wanted to say 20 days, but 20 days was too long, so he changed his mind and said that it was nine days, and nine days was the number. Such a number is easy to read.


    After hearing this, Liu Biao said in a deep voice: "Jiang Ping, in nine days, countless military supplies will be consumed. Can''t we send troops to attack sun CE one day earlier? ""No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and replied solemnly: "uncle, it''s only nine days. In fact, it''s not long. It won''t consume much food. Just imagine, if you take Lujiang County and expand your territory, do you still care about the grain? "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "at that time, more grain can be earned back. What''s more, under the management of his uncle, Jingzhou is rich in grain and doesn''t care about the loss of this little bit of grain. "


    Liu Biao said: "Jiang Ping, you also consider for me. What do you think?"


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "uncle, if we can win this battle, this little delay in time will not affect us. Just imagine, if this war fails, the loss will be great. At that time, what you will lose will not be this little grain. In my opinion, it''s better to wait for a while. Nine days later, it''s not too late


    "Oh, just nine days." Liu Biao couldn''t persuade Zhang Xiu and said directly, "nine days later, we will send troops on time and take Lujiang County."


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    He succeeded in delaying nine days. If Shi ashun had a good time, maybe nine days would have been enough to reach Wujun.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, Wang Yue entered again.


    He went to Zhang Xiu''s side, buried himself and said something in a low voice.


    Zhang Xiu''s face suddenly changed and said in a deep voice: "uncle, are you dissatisfied with me?"


    Liu Biao said: "where is Jiang Ping''s language? You and I are a family. How can I be dissatisfied with you? "


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said, "since my uncle has never been dissatisfied with me, why did he send someone to deliver food with 20000 stones in our army and 20000 stones in Liu Bei''s army?"


    "Liu Bei''s army is 20000, almost all infantry. I have 30000 troops and thousands of cavalry. My fighting capacity is better than Liu Bei. There are more people in our army than Liu Bei. "


    "as like as two peas, Liu Bei has the same grain as I have."


    "This is extremely unfair."


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and said decidedly: "uncle, you are not aiming at me?"


    "Absolutely nothing!"


    Liu Biao shook his head firmly and said solemnly: "Jiang Ping, I give the same food because the visitors are guests. You are all guests. You are all here to help me. It is not appropriate to give more or less to anyone. That''s why there are only 20000 stone grains in a family. Don''t worry. I really don''t mean anything else. "


    At this time, Liu Biao''s face looked anxious. In fact, his heart was full of joy.


    Yes!


    It''s done!


    By giving food things, successfully provoked the dissatisfaction of Zhang Xiu. In other words, Zhang Xiu is also dissatisfied with Liu Bei and thinks that Liu Bei should not get so much food, which further intensifies the contradiction between the two sides.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "uncle, you want a bowl of water to be even, and you don''t want to offend Liu Bei. But you offended me. If we have the same grain as Liu Bei, I don''t agree and will never send troops. No matter what, I''ll immediately mobilize my troops and withdraw from Jingzhou. "


    "No, absolutely not!"


    Liu Biao, with a look of great change, quickly stopped and said, "Jiang Ping, don''t be impulsive. You and I are all family. Can''t you understand my situation? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I''ll be considerate of my uncle, but who will be considerate of my soldiers? It''s difficult. Let Liu Bei understand. Uncle, I have one condition, plus three thousand stone grain. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "as long as there are three thousand more stones of grain, I won''t care. Otherwise, this is not the end of the matter. At that time, the soldiers in our army will not agree


    "OK, I''ll give you three thousand stone grain."


    Liu Biao took a deep breath and answered directly. Previously, it was fair to give food, but now it is differential compensation for Zhang Xiu''s food. When the news gets around, Liu Bei knows that Liu Bei will certainly have an idea.


    This is Liu Biao''s intention.


    Constantly stir up the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei.

 Chapter 624

    Zhang Xiu knows Liu Biao''s plan, but she doesn''t break it. In any case, through this outcry, there will be another 3000 stone grain, and the soldiers will be able to eat more. This is excellent.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay any longer, so she left.


    Liu Biao''s appearance of retaining him is actually a verbal statement. Zhang Xiu insisted on leaving, Liu Biao personally sent Zhang Xiu out of the door, and then returned to the study.


    At this time, Liu Biao immediately sent for Gu Yong.


    Liu Biao had a look of joy on his face.


    When Liu Biao looked at Gu Yong, he looked happy and said, "Sir, Zhang Xiu is angry about the food distribution. Finally, I gave him three thousand stone grain according to my husband''s plan. Now let''s see Liu Bei''s reaction. It would be better if Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu had a grain conflict. "


    Gu Yong said: "Lord, if there is a conflict, it is the best. If there is no conflict, there is no impact. After all, Zhuge Liang is not simple. He may not be able to see through the intention of the Lord. "


    "We''ll see."


    Liu was very relaxed and said, "it''s not feasible to send troops after two days. Instead, it''s impossible to send troops after nine days."


    Gu Yong frowned and said, "why?"


    Liu Biao said: "Zhang Xiu said it in person. It''s not lucky to send troops two days later."


    Gu Yong said: "two days later, it''s an auspicious day selected by humble officers. How can it be unlucky?"


    Liu Biao shrugged, a helpless look, explained: "Zhang Xiu said, two days later to send troops, and his generation eight characters do not match, not suitable for sending troops."


    "The day the alchemists around him chose was nine days later."


    "I thought about it for a while. Nine days is not very long, and it can be delayed a lot. Nine days later, nine days later. You can see that Zhang Xiu has always been a conqueror in attack and a winner in war, and has never been defeated. Especially in Chang''an, praying for rain has solved the crisis of drought in Chang''an for several months. So we are very particular about this. "


    Liu Biao looks like a faithful man.


    When Gu Yong heard this, he was skeptical. When it comes to this kind of metaphysical problem, Rao is Gu Yong''s brilliant. After all, he can''t refute all kinds of examples.


    Even Gu Yong''s heart agreed with Liu Biao''s words.


    Gu Yong thought about it and said, "since it''s nine days later, we''ll send troops in nine days later. Now, however, Liu Bei has been informed that he will send troops two days later. Now the time has changed and Liu Bei has to be informed again. "


    Liu Biao said, "Sir, please go. First, talk about the dispatch of troops nine days later; second, reveal the issue of food and give an explanation. "


    "I''ll do it


    Gu Yong responded directly.


    He looked up at Liu Biao and said that Liu Biao was not good at nothing in playing power. No longer staying, he turned away from his study, took a carriage and went straight to Liu Bei''s camp.


    Gu Yong entered the camp and saw Liu Bei in the Chinese army tent. He said with a smile, "Liu Yuzhou, I''m here for the time of sending troops."


    Liu Bei said, "Mr. Gu, please go ahead."


    Gu Yong said: "the original time of sending troops in two days is changed to nine days later."


    "Why?" Liu Bei asked


    Gu Yong didn''t hide it. He said directly: "Zhang Taiwei thinks that it''s not good for his army to send troops two days later, which conflicts with his birthday. So I chose to send troops after nine days. Zhang Taiwei was the main force in the attack on Sun CE, so he could only aggrieve Liu Yuzhou. I hope Liu Yuzhou can understand. "


    Liu Bei stroked his beard under his jaw, thinking in his heart.


    He looked at Zhuge Liang and nodded his head slightly. Liu Bei said, "nine days is nine days. This time, I''m here to help jingshenggong. The guests are as the Lord wishes. I''ll obey jingshenggong''s arrangement."


    Gu Yong put up his thumb and praised: "it''s worthy of being Liu Yuzhou. His benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled."


    Liu Bei said, "my husband is wrong."


    Gu Yong changed his words and said, "apart from the time of sending troops, there is another trivial matter."


    Liu Bei said, "Mr. Gu, please go ahead."


    Gu Yongzheng said: "before, the Lord distributed grain to Liu Yuzhou and Zhang Taiwei equally, and each sent 20000 stone grains. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu was angry, saying that he had more troops and stronger strength, and that he had less than 20000 stones, and asked for 3000 stones of food. Alas, the Lord is also helpless, can only promise Zhang Xiu. My Lord asked me to tell Liu Yuzhou about this matter. Please ask Liu Yuzhou Haihan. "


    "Bastard Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhang Fei was furious.


    Previously in the city of yunxiangfang, he and Zhang Xiu a fight, has been angry. Now see Zhang Xiu is still so arrogant and domineering, bullying his brother, very angry.


    Zhang feiceng stood up and said: "brother, Zhang Xiu is too bullying. If we stop fighting, we will withdraw without food. Hum, Liu Biao should pay attention to Zhang Xiu. He should pay attention to it himself. Let''s go back to Yuzhou. "


    "Sit down!"


    Liu Bei yelled at him.


    Zhang Fei wants to talk and stop, but in front of Liu Bei, he is afraid of Liu Bei and can only sit down.Now Mr. Liu Zong Jing came to help me, but he didn''t like me


    "Now that I''m here, I won''t give up halfway. Please tell Jing Shenggong about the grain. That''s all. Nine days later, that''s all. I just hope that King Sheng won''t let Zhang Xiu be arrogant and domineering. "


    "Otherwise, things can''t be done well."


    Liu Bei''s tone was a little harsh, and he said, "after all, next, we have to attack sun CE together. Sun CE can not be defeated if he does not have unified constraints and goes his own way. "


    Gu Yong said, "I will faithfully convey Liu Yuzhou''s words."


    "Goodbye!"


    Gu Yong stopped staying and turned to leave.


    After Gu Yong left, Zhang Fei clenched his fist and said angrily, "brother, we are too weak. Zhang Xiu, a child, is a liar. It''s not cost-effective to go out with Zhang Xiu this time. In my opinion, it''s better to withdraw. "


    "What do you know?"


    Liu Bei scolded and said: "Yide, don''t cry when you encounter something. Let''s withdraw our troops now. What do people think of me? If we withdraw now, we will give Jingzhou to Zhang Xiu, which is not good for Yuzhou. If we withdraw now, we will offend Liu Biao even more. Now that we have sent troops, we have to stick to it no matter what. "


    Guan Yu stroked his beard under his jaw and said in a deep voice, "but Zhang Xiu is too arrogant."


    Zhuge Liang gently shook his feather fan and said slowly, "General Zhang and general Guan, in fact, there is no need to be angry. Let him be strong, and I will do my own thing. There are mainly three things in our war. "


    "First, to help Liu Biao attack Lujiang County is of secondary importance; second, to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength through this war. This is the main task of our trip. Third, we should strive to control Lujiang County. "


    "Lujiang County is in Yangzhou and adjacent to the jurisdiction of the Lord. When Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu are busy competing for Lujiang County, it would be better if they could seize Lujiang County. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "of course, the main purpose is to weaken the strength of Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s not easy," Guan said


    Zhang Fei said: "military adviser, do you have a way to capture Lujiang County?"


    Even Liu Bei is in front of his eyes.


    Now, Liu Bei is quite obsessed with territory. He hopes to expand his strength.


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "the method is not perfect. There is only one general idea, but the concrete one is to wait until the troops are sent to Lujiang River. After all, the situation changes very quickly on the battlefield. It''s too early to say. "


    Liu Bei nodded in agreement and said, "it''s good to have a way."


    Zhuge Liang continued: "in fact, the contradiction between us and Zhang Xiu has its own reasons, but also Liu Biao''s provocation. General Guan and three generals, you should be clear that we have a conflict with Zhang Xiu and do not cooperate with each other. In the end, it is Liu Biao who gains. With this premise, it''s easy to think about things. "


    "It''s too complicated."


    Zhang Fei waved his hand helplessly.


    Guan Yu nodded and agreed. The intrigue between people is really complicated.


    Liu Bei said with a smile: "with the help of military advisers, I have no worries. Now, we''ll wait nine days before we send out our troops. "


    Zhuge Liang shakes his fan and smiles with confidence.

 Chapter 625

    Zhang Xiu''s barracks received grain and grass twice in a row. In the first batch of grain, there were 20000 stone grains; in the second batch, there were 3000 stone grains. When two batches of grain were put into storage, the granary was full again.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu could not place all her hopes on Liu Biao''s food supply. His army is always ready for food. Even if Liu Biao cut off food supplies, Zhang Xiu did not lack food in a short time.


    With more food, Zhang Xiu directly ordered the army cooks to kill pigs and sheep on a large scale to provide meat for the soldiers.


    Nowadays, pork is popular in Guanzhong.


    After castration, pigs grow up with tender and fat meat, which is delicious for soldiers in the army. The favorite food for soldiers in the army is braised pork.


    It''s a must-have dish for every meal.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had meat and food at once. They had good food and were strong.


    They''re all tough boys.


    One by one, it''s very powerful.


    Originally, the food in the army was very good. Zhang Xiu once again ordered a large-scale supply of food, which made the soldiers in the army enjoy a rich meat feast, and each soldier was very happy.


    Because she had to stay in Xiangyang City for nine days, Zhang Xiu specially gave some of the soldiers in the army a sabbatical leave, so that they could walk around and have a look at the scenery of Xiangyang.


    In this case, Zhang Xiu also gave an order to prohibit soldiers from making trouble.


    Soldiers are not allowed to make trouble.


    After all, all the soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army are forbidden and dare not act recklessly. In Zhang Xiu''s army, there were soldiers taking a rest one after another, and many soldiers went into the city to hang out.


    Xiangyang City is very busy, where many wine shops are, there are soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are not poor. They dare to fight and kill on the battlefield, and they get a lot of awards and salaries, so each of them has enough money.


    When they arrived in the city, they were very happy.


    It''s hard to get out of business.


    In a wine shop near the north gate of the city, there were five soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, led by a military commander.


    His name is Shen Rui. He is very strong. Shen Rui''s original name is Shen San. Because he is the third in his family, he has no name at all. Everyone calls him Shen San. But when he became the commander of the army, he found Shen San hard to listen to, so he found a literate man in the army and renamed Shen Rui.


    Rui, RUIZHAO, good luck.


    Shen Rui has always felt that after he changed his name, there is a sign that he has made progress. Because the centurion of the army has already intended to promote him to the post of commander.


    If you can become a chief, not only your salary will be increased, but also your power will be increased.


    This is Shen Rui''s joy.


    "Third brother, I heard that you are going to be the commander of the army. My brothers are going to follow you. When you get promoted, don''t forget your old brother. "


    The soldier beside Shen Rui took a sip of wine and began to sing with a smile.


    Others, too, agreed.


    Shen Rui patted his chest and said in a loud voice: "don''t worry, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will never starve you. If you can really be promoted this time, I will never forget you. "


    You are my old brothers, you know. Who else can I help if my old brother doesn''t? However, I put my words in the front. After going to the battlefield, if I''m counselled, don''t say I know you. "


    "If we want to make contributions in the army, we have to rely on fighting on the battlefield."


    Shen Rui raised his head and looked proud. He said, "I''ve killed two enemies to get it."


    "Of course, in the battlefield, are you still human?"


    "No one knows what to do!"


    One by one, the soldiers were filled with emotion.


    The soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army, influenced by Huang Zhong and other generals, were all fearless of death. What''s more, the soldiers in the army are all poor people. They eat well in the army, dress well, and get their salaries. They all cherish the opportunities in front of them.


    "Hum, that boy Zhang Xiu is really deceiving people too much."


    Suddenly, not far away from the table, someone spoke loudly. As soon as these words came out, Shen Rui and others stopped talking. One by one, they turned their eyes and fell on the person who said Zhang Xiu.


    The speaker was about twenty when he was young, and he was very strong, and his face was a little red.


    His name is Guan Ping.


    He was Guan Yu''s eldest son, and he sent troops with Liu Bei.


    Now there is nothing wrong in the military camp outside the city. Guan Ping takes people to drink in the city. When he was in the army, he heard a lot about Zhang Xiu, especially when his father mentioned that Zhang Xiu beat Zhang Fei in yunxiangfang, and he was even more dissatisfied with Zhang Xiu.


    Speaking of the excitement, Guan Ping beat on the desk with one fist and said: "Zhang Xiu is already a Taiwei when she is young. But he acted without any benevolence, arrogant and domineering. "


    "It''s hard for such a person to last long."


    "When I''m on the battlefield, I''m going to cut this Liao with my hand. There is no difference between him and Dong Zhuo. Although Zhang Xiu killed Li Xi and Guo Si, the dog bit the dog and gave it a hairy mouth. "Guan Ping gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu is not a good thing. I, Guan Ping, despise Zhang Xiu the Xiliang dog most."


    "What the little general said is true."


    Next to Guan Ping, there are soldiers.


    Guan Ping came to the wine shop in the city to drink and took six soldiers with him.


    These people are Guan Yu''s bodyguards.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu came outside Xiangyang City to attack Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, which made the pro Guard soldiers around Guan Yu very dissatisfied. In the eyes of those who kneel down, Guan Yu is an invincible existence.


    But Zhang Xiu attacks Guan Yu, that is humiliating Guan Yu. One by one, all these people hate Zhang Xiu and wish to kill her. Now, to hear Guan Ping''s words is to open the conversation.


    In particular, Guan Ping several people, after drinking a few glasses of wine, but also mouth unstoppable.


    "Zhang Xiu is a thief. I heard that she loves women very much. He fought with Cao Cao and robbed Cao Cao''s daughter. He fought with Yuan Shao and robbed the daughter of Zhen family in Jizhou. This man is just crazy. "


    "Zhang Xiu is damned."


    "Xiliang dog, it''s all the same. First Dong Zhuo, then Li Xi and Guo Si, and now Zhang Xiu. People in Xiliang are just like birds. Liu Jingzhou shouldn''t invite Zhang xiulai. "


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, they keep talking.


    Shen Rui sat not far away, listening to a burst of fire. He is from Guanzhong, because Zhang Xiu pacifies Guanzhong, his family can live a stable life. Because Zhang Xiu recruited soldiers, he was able to serve in the army and support his family.


    It''s all because of Zhang Xiu.


    He insulted Zhang Xiu, so after hearing this, he was extremely angry.


    Shen Rui nodded to the other four soldiers, rolled up his sleeves, strode to the flat table, slapped his hand on the table, and roared: "some little thieves are disrespectful to Zhang Taiwei. Now, apologize immediately. Otherwise, don''t blame me for being impolite. "


    Guan Ping is not a soft temperament. He has a strong temperament. He is especially influenced by Zhang Fei. On hearing Shen Rui''s words, he stood up, raised his head and said, "I''m Guan Ping. I just don''t apologize. What can you do for me? While I''m in a good mood, roll as far as I can. Otherwise, don''t blame me for being rude. "


    "That is, why apologize?"


    "The mouth is on us. What''s wrong with Zhang Xiu. It''s a big joke that he can''t tell whether he is the king of heaven or someone else. "


    "Zhang Xiu should be damned. I would say that."


    Guan Ping''s bodyguards began to speak one after another, and each of them did not give up.


    "To die!"


    When Shen Ruideng was angry, he swung his fist and hit hard, straight to Guan Ping.

 Chapter 626

    "You are looking for death!"


    Guan Ping''s figure is very strong. Facing Shen Rui''s fist, he swings his fist to meet him.


    "Bang!"


    Their fists hit each other.


    "Kick! Kick off


    Shen Rui stepped back three steps in succession to stabilize his figure. Guan Ping is a step back, firmly. Guan Ping has been born with great power since he was a child. It''s about the wind of feather.


    He had a red cheek, and he was furious. Especially in the face of Shen Rui, Guan Ping''s first move is powerful, and then he swings his fist again to win Shen Rui''s heart.


    Shen Rui is a general in the army. He is fighting with his life. Seeing that Guan Ping is coming, Shen Rui can''t resist it. He swings his fist at Guan Ping''s temple.


    Guan Ping raises his left arm to resist, and his right hand continues to move forward.


    "Bang!"


    His fist hit Shen Rui on the chest.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Shen Ruili was unstable. After losing his center of gravity, he fell to the ground. On his rough cheek, there was a look of pain.


    He was biting his teeth.


    What the generals have handed down is that only the brave can win when the two armies meet. In the army, only the brave can survive, but the cowardly soldiers have no room for survival.


    So the soldiers in the flying bear army are very brave.


    Shen Rui is even more so, he rubbed eat pain chest, gritted his teeth and said: "give grandfather scratch, it''s not worth mentioning."


    "Up, up to me!"


    "Insult Taiwei, don''t try to leave without saying something."


    Shen Rui didn''t retreat, he ordered all the attacks directly. He clenched his fist and rushed to Guan Ping again. The soldiers under his command also directly attacked the people around Guan Ping.


    The two sides fight directly in the wine shop.


    Shen Rui and the four soldiers under his command are extremely brave, but they can''t stand Guan Ping after all. Shen Rui and Guan Ping, in particular, are not as good as Guan Ping even if they fight hard. Even Shen Rui himself is knocked over and his face is bruised everywhere.


    Shen Rui''s soldiers, too, were knocked down one by one.


    Guan Ping spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground and hummed: "what''s the matter, dare to be arrogant in front of me. Now, you immediately shout three times, and I''ll forgive you. "


    "Guan Ping donkey day!"


    "Guan Ping donkey day!"


    "Guan Ping donkey day!"


    Shen Rui spoke directly, with a ferocious look on his face and no fear at all. His shouting made Guan Ping''s face black, and his eyes were full of killing intention.


    Goddamn bastard!


    How dare you say it!


    He stepped on Shen Rui''s feet and pressed them down. Under the pressure of powerful force, Shen Rui''s breath was a little short, his chest was full of pain, and his cheek was black.


    "Guan Ping, you have the courage to kill me. Hum, if you insult Taiwei, you''ll be unable to get away with it. "


    Shen Rui is hoarse.


    When he said this sentence, his voice was almost smoking. In fact, under the circumstances just now, his chest was oppressed, it was extremely difficult to breathe, and it was even more difficult to speak.


    Guan Ping was biting his teeth. Although he was angry, he didn''t dare to kill Zhang Xiu. He stepped on Shen Rui''s body, looked at the other people who were knocked over on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "you guys, as long as someone yells, I''ll let them go."


    "Fuck you!"


    "Guan Ping, you are delusional."


    "Guan Ping, you''re a fool!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the soldiers retorted, and no one counseled.


    They are Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, proud and upright. On the battlefield, even if they are defeated, they dare to fight to the death. Even in the face of Guan Ping''s threat, none of the soldiers, led by Shen Rui, were willing to give advice, and all of them were extremely tough.


    Lose the battle!


    Even if they are defeated, they will not admit it.


    Guan Ping''s face is black, and his feet on Shen Rui are raised. At this moment, Shen Rui''s chest relaxed a lot. But at the next moment, Guan Ping kicks Shen Rui again and again. The sound of a dull crash comes out, but Shen Rui doesn''t utter a miserable cry from the beginning to the end, and doesn''t ask for any mercy.


    After Guan Ping kicked for a while, his anger eased slightly. But he looked down and saw Shen Rui''s stubborn and angry eyes. His anger rose again. In anger, Guan Ping raised his foot and stepped on Shen Rui''s calf bone.


    "Chaka!"


    The clear sound came out.


    The next moment, Shen Rui''s body directly curls up. He clenched his hands tightly into a fist, opened his mouth, and looked extremely ferocious. But Rao was so, there was no sound in his mouth.


    The leg is broken!


    The bone of his left leg was crushed.


    In this way, even after the recovery of bone grafting, at least lying on the bed for several months can recover.


    Shen Rui felt that there was endless pain in his heart. Wave after wave of pain, as if there were countless ants gnawing at his left leg, but in front of Guan Ping''s face, he gritted his teeth and did not make any screams.This scene shocked Guan Ping.


    He''s a hero!


    Guan Ping raised his eyebrows, but he didn''t do it again. After venting, he snorted, turned and left.


    Although the soldiers around Shen Rui had been knocked over on the ground before, they were all skin injuries and had no effect. But Shen Rui is different. Now they are all flustered and worried about Shen Rui.


    Shen Rui clenched his teeth and asked in a hoarse voice, "Guan Ping, the thief, is he gone?"


    "Gone!"


    The soldier next to him answered.


    "Ah


    At this time, Shen Rui opens his mouth and roars.


    The roar was full of heartbreaking pain. It was the pain in his leg that came wave after wave and made him feel miserable. After a good roar, Shen Rui felt more comfortable.


    "Carry me up, go, go back to camp. Please make up your mind about it


    Shen Ruifen said.


    The soldiers quickly picked Shen Rui up and hurried out of the city. They left the city and soon returned to the camp. Originally, Shen Rui and his party went out well, but now they come back.


    After seeing the centurion, Shen Rui reported the situation in the wine shop. When the centurion saw Shen Rui''s tragedy, he was furious. He reported it to Huang Zhong directly and layer by layer. Soon, he reported it to Huang Zhong''s desk.


    When Huang Zhong got the news, there was a hint of killing in his eyes. Liu Bei''s people are so arrogant that they break Shen Rui''s legs. Huang Zhong also did not hide, went directly to Zhang Xiu''s army account and reported the details.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "bring the people involved to the camp."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong is ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    Not long after, Shen Rui and the rest of the soldiers were all taken to the Chinese army. Except for Shen Rui, the rest of the soldiers could walk normally. They only suffered skin injuries.


    Shen Rui''s left leg was broken, so he could only lie on a stretcher and couldn''t walk normally. At the moment, Shen Rui''s leg bone was bound up and applied ointment.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Shen Rui and said in a deep voice: "in order to maintain my official reputation, I''d rather die than be afraid. I''m very happy. But I ordered you not to make trouble after you leave the camp. Are you sure you have made no mistakes except when it comes to this officer? "


    "No!"


    Shen Rui shook his head and replied: "Taiwei, villains and others are drinking in the wine shop. Guan Ping, a member of Liu Bei''s army, not only humiliated Taiwei wantonly, but also said that Taiwei was like Dong Zhuo and wantonly humiliated Taiwei. Finally, he even threatened his life. He asked me to say that Taiwei was from donkey day. If I didn''t follow him, he broke my left leg. We can''t help it. They have no choice but to leave. "


    Speaking of this, Shen Rui looked guilty and said, "the villain is not good at martial arts. If you lose Taiwei''s face, please punish him."


    He felt guilty.


    Originally, he wanted to protect Zhang Xiu''s reputation, but in the end, his own leg was broken, and the enemy left, so he could do nothing, which made Shen Rui very disappointed.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu is angry.


    His heart has a strong intention to kill rise, Zhang Xiu advocates, has always been a tooth for a tooth, blood for blood. Liu Bei''s people beat his soldiers, and it was Liu Bei''s people who made mistakes first. He would never give up.

 Chapter 627

    Zhang Xiu walks up to Shen Rui, squats down, taps Shen Rui on the shoulder and says, "you have not done anything wrong, you have no sin, you don''t have to blame yourself. On the contrary, you have done well and I am proud of you. My soldiers, Zhang Xiu, are not cowards. They have not disgraced me. "


    This words a, Shen Rui bright Mou son, is moisten more.


    He was even more remorseful.


    He failed to keep Taiwei''s reputation.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you can relax. I won''t let anyone hurt you off. This matter, I will give you a complete account, will not let you get hurt in vain


    "Captain Xie!"


    Shen Rui immediately thanks.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "Hansheng, in Zhang Xiu''s army, we need a soldier like Shen Rui. Shen Rui was promoted to Centurion for meritorious service. All the soldiers under his command were promoted to the rank of commander in chief. "


    "Captain Xie!"


    At this moment, Shen Rui thanks again.


    Shen Rui''s soldiers also expressed their thanks one after another. One by one, they were excited, and their faces were full of joy. It never occurred to anyone that he had been beaten and the one who did not beat Liu Bei was rewarded and promoted.


    For a moment, Shen Rui and his soldiers were very excited to be loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "what does Guan Ping look like when he hurt you?"


    For Guan Ping, Zhang Xiu has an impression.


    This is Guan Yu''s son.


    But Zhang Xiu worried that it was the same name, so she asked.


    Shen Rui thought about it and replied, "Guan Ping is more than eight feet long. His face is red, his eyes are red, his nose is straight and straight, and he is big and strong. The strength of this man is extraordinary. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know."


    After listening to Shen Rui''s description, Zhang Xiu knows that she is really Guan Yu''s son. This matter involves Guan Ping, Liu Bei must give him an account, otherwise it will not be finished.


    Zhang Xiuxian asked Shen Rui and others to step down and think about countermeasures.


    Huang Zhong said, "my Lord, it''s not too big or too small. Although the Lord praised Shen Rui and others and inspired people. But Liu Bei must give an account of this. Otherwise, the morale of the army will be affected. "


    "I understand," said Zhang Xiu


    Huang Zhong continued: "the soldiers under the Lord''s command are all men who scream. If this matter is not dealt with, I am afraid the officers and soldiers will be dissatisfied. However, to deal with this matter, the people involved in Liu Bei may eventually trigger a war between the two sides. "


    Huang Zhong doesn''t want to fight Liu Bei. Because the goal of this trip to the south is not Liu Bei, but to capture Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed and said: "Han Sheng, since such a thing happens, you can''t be afraid of it. Even if there''s a war, you don''t care. However, we should be polite before we fight. In this way, Liu Biao wants to mediate. We can say that. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu returned to her seat, quickly wrote a letter, handed it to Huang Zhong, and said, "arrange the soldiers to send it to Liu Bei, and let Liu Bei carry out the letter."


    Huang Zhong scanned his eyes, and after reading it, he showed a look of astonishment and said, "Lord, your condition is too harsh. I''m afraid Liu Bei will not carry out it. "


    "I don''t care about him!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "arrange a person to inform."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong put away the letter and turned to arrange it.


    The soldier left the camp with Zhang Xiu''s letter and went straight to Liu Bei''s camp. The distance between the two camps is about five or six li, and the soldiers will arrive soon.


    The soldier reported his name and was taken directly into the camp. Soon he saw Liu Bei. The soldier bowed slightly and said, "Liu Yuzhou, I''ve come to send a letter on the order of Taiwei."


    With that, the soldier handed the letter.


    He got up and took the letter from Liu Zhuliang.


    Liu Bei opened the letter and scanned it quickly.


    When Liu Bei finished reading the contents of the letter, his face suddenly collapsed. He stared at Zhang Xiu''s soldiers with a black face and asked, "Taiwei Zhang, did you ever say anything?"


    "No!"


    The soldier replied, "Taiwei just asked me to send a message."


    Liu Bei brushed his sleeves and refused: "go back and tell Zhang Taiwei that his request is impossible. I don''t agree with Liu Bei. "


    The soldier turned and stepped down.


    Zhuge Liang asked, "Lord, what happened?"


    Liu Bei handed the letter to Zhuge Liang, and arranged for someone to inform Guan Ping to camp.


    After reading the letter, Zhuge Liang was also surprised. In Zhang Xiu''s letter, he didn''t say anything. In a word, he asked Liu Bei to break Guan Ping''s leg, and then escorted him to Zhang Xiu''s barracks to plead guilty.


    Zhuge Liang turned his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I''m afraid Guan Ping and Zhang Xiu have some conflicts. Zhang Xiu did not say, the specific circumstances have to ask Guan Ping, and then consider the specific response


    Liu Bei nodded and said, "that''s true!"When they chatted with each other, Guan Ping strode into the camp and said, "humble Guan Ping, meet the Lord."


    Liu Bei said, "Ping''er, have you offended Zhang Xiu?"


    "No!"


    Guan Ping said: "Lord, I have never seen Zhang Xiu in my humble position. How can I offend Zhang Xiu?"


    Liu Bei frowned and said, "but why, Zhang Xiu sent someone to send a letter, asking me to break your leg, and then escorting you to ask for a pardon outside his military camp."


    Brush!


    Guan Ping''s face changed greatly when he heard the speech.


    He immediately thought of what happened in the wine shop. It must be the soldiers who beat Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Bei is used to observing words and colors. As soon as he sees that the color of Guan''s plane has changed, he immediately knows that there must be something hidden inside, otherwise it will not make the color of Guan''s plane change greatly.


    Liu Bei said, "pinger, what''s the matter?"


    Guan Ping took a deep breath and said, "it''s not really a big deal. Today, I took some brothers to drink in the city''s wine shop and talked about Zhang Xiu."


    "At that time, I said that Zhang Xiu was cruel, just like Dong Zhuo and Li Xi. My mouth is on me. It''s my business how I say it. "


    "What''s more, Zhang Xiu is really cruel. As soon as he arrived in Xiangyang, he set off an incident, which was extremely hateful. But when we were talking, several soldiers under Zhang Xiu came out and slapped us on the table, asking me to apologize. "


    "Zhang Xiu is cruel. Why should I apologize. But when the other side didn''t agree, they directly attacked me and wanted to fight us. At that time, it was Zhang Xiu''s soldiers who started first, and we were forced to fight back. "


    "The two sides were tied," I said


    When Liu Bei heard this, he thought about it in his heart.


    He didn''t think there was anything wrong with Guan Ping. Someone stepped on the uneven road and his mouth grew on him. He could say whatever he wanted, and no one could care.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers are too broad-minded.


    Zhuge Liang gently shook the feather fan in his hand and said: "but Zhang Xiu sent a letter to me. I want to break your leg, and then let the Lord take you to plead guilty. Did you break each other''s legs? "


    "Yes


    Guan Ping did not deny it. He said directly: "at that time, they didn''t admit their mistakes. I broke the left leg bone of one of them. But it''s just a broken bone. It''s not serious. They are the first to attack, they are invincible, and when they are broken, they can only blame themselves for their incompetence. "


    After hearing this, Zhuge Liang frowned, because it was difficult.


    In fact, things are not big.


    It''s just an ordinary soldier. It depends on what Zhang Xiu does.


    Liu Bei''s eyes also fell on Zhuge Liang''s body. He said with a straight face: "military adviser, what do you think we should do about this matter?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "we must resolve the incident. Once there is a real conflict, it is not in line with our position. This matter, Zhang Xiu aspect has the mistake first, but Guan Ping''s disposition, also some serious


    Liu Bei said, "it''s not easy to deal with it."


    Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "it''s really hard to deal with. If you don''t break each other''s legs, it won''t be so. The humble position suggests that the Lord write a letter, send someone to Zhang Xiu''s barracks, apologize to Zhang Xiu, and send another plaster. "


    Liu Bei is not a good face man. Knowing that he can''t really make a scene with Zhang Xiu, he readily agrees with Zhuge Liang''s suggestion and immediately writes a letter calling for the soldiers to see him off.


    Guan Ping said: "uncle, my nephew doesn''t think we should admit defeat to Zhang Xiu."


    At this time, he changed his name.


    Because he didn''t agree.


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Liu Bei heard Guan Ping''s words, he scolded and said, "you stinky boy, it''s not a fight with Zhang Xiu now. When it''s time to do it, we''ll do it. You go down and shut up for me


    "Here it is


    When Guan Ping heard the speech, he had to step down.

 Chapter 628

    Zhang Xiu is in the military camp.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is waiting for the soldiers to return. Now in Xiangyang, he has nothing to do. When something happened, I got some interest.


    While Zhang Xiu was waiting, the soldier who sent the message returned. After reporting the news to Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong quickly came to the camp and reported: "Lord, just received the news from the soldiers, Liu Bei said it''s impossible."


    "What an impossibility


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed the intention of killing and ordered: "Han Sheng, mobilize the army immediately. Mobilize all the 30000 flying bears. This time, I''d like to see how Liu Bei responds to our army. "


    "What if Liu Bei refuses?" Huang said


    "Go to war!"


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    For Zhang Xiu, he would rather use the first World War to gather the soul of the soldiers in the army, so that the soldiers can recognize him. But not willing to aggrieve the soldiers in the army in order to capture Jingzhou.


    Save people and lose land, save people and land. As long as his soldiers are energetic and determined, it is not difficult for Zhang Xiu to capture Jingzhou. But the morale of the soldiers in the army is broken, and the hearts of the people are scattered. Even if they capture Jingzhou, they can''t keep it.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s point of view.


    He has to ask for a statement for Shen Rui.


    Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words. He immediately showed his face with a smile and said, "I''ll obey you in your humble duty!"


    Immediately, Huang Zhong went to mobilize the army.


    Zhang Xiu is also a top helmet, dressed neatly, and then out of the army tent. With the beating of the war drum, all the soldiers gathered, which surprised Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others.


    One by one quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side, asked the situation, why suddenly gathered soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu said something about Shen Rui and finally said, "Shen Rui and others are dedicated to me. Now, Liu Bei refuses to give an explanation. How can I not ask for an explanation for Shen Rui. Today, it depends on how Liu Bei responds. "


    After hearing this, everyone agreed.


    Pang Tong said: "in fact, this time is a great opportunity to weaken Liu Bei. If Liu Bei refuses, the Lord will attack Liu Bei. Of course, Liu Biao certainly can''t sit by and watch us destroy Liu Bei. It depends on how Liu Biao deals with it. "


    Sima Yi rubbed her chin and said, "this time it''s interesting."


    By the time they were talking, Huang Zhong had mobilized the army.


    "Da! Dada


    Outside the camp, another horse came running.


    It''s Liu Bei''s soldier.


    When the soldiers arrive at the gate of the camp and turn over to dismount, they are surprised to see Zhang Xiu, who mobilizes the army. Yesterday, the soldiers saw Zhang Xiu, so they called out: "Zhang Taiwei, I''m here on the order of Liu Yuzhou. I have a letter to send."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and let Liu Bei''s soldiers enter.


    He took the letter sent by Liu Bei''s soldiers, scanned it quickly, and sneered: "Liu Bei is really powerful. First, he directly refused my official and said it was impossible to apologize. Now, he wrote an apology, but in the letter, he accused Shen Rui and others of their mistakes. Hum, Liu Bei took both the good and the bad. How could it be so easy? "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of Liu Bei''s soldiers and gave the order.


    Seeing this, Liu Bei''s soldiers watched Zhang Xiu take the army directly to Liu Bei''s camp. They were in a panic. They rode back quickly to report the news.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of it. Even if Liu Bei knew that he had killed her, it didn''t matter.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army came to Liu Bei''s barracks, they were arrayed in a fierce manner. One by one, the soldiers held their heads high and their spirits high.


    The news of Shen Rui''s broken leg has spread in the army. The soldiers knew that Zhang Xiu came with the army in order to ask Shen Rui for justice. They were filled with indignation and wanted to join Liu Bei''s army immediately.


    At the gate of Liu Bei''s barracks.


    Liu Bei got the news from the soldiers and waited here early. Facing the army of Zhang Xiu, Liu Beilang said: "Zhang Taiwei, for a small matter, why do you have to fight so hard?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "you Liu Bei, always don''t see the life and death of soldiers in your eyes, so you think I''m a big fight. But for me, Zhang Xiu, soldiers are nothing


    "My soldiers, when they heard that I had been humiliated, came forward to stop me and ask for justice."


    "In the end, I was broken."


    "I''m very glad to have such a soldier, and I''m proud to have such a soldier."


    Zhang Xiu''s tone is very tough, throwing a voice: "soldiers treat me like this, how can I Zhang Xiu ignore the soldiers'' life and death, regardless of the soldiers'' integration. Liu Bei, stop talking nonsense and let Guan Ping come out. "


    "What happened today, he made it."


    "Injustice has its head, debt has its owner, and I don''t involve other people. Let Guan Ping come out and I''ll break his leg. That''s all for today. "


    Zhang Xiu said flatly: "otherwise, I will never give up."


    Liu Bei said, "Zhang Taiwei, you are a bit of a bully. At first, it was your people. If not, it would not have been like this. ""Oh, uncle Liu, I''m speechless."


    Zhang Xiu pointed at Liu Bei in her hand and said coldly, "is it difficult for Guan Ping to humiliate me? My soldiers have to flatter me. You, Liu Bei, are such a person. You are generous to your own people and strict to others. If it wasn''t for a flat mouth, how could it have happened this time. Liu Bei, don''t talk nonsense. I''ll just say one word. Do you want to hand it over to others? "


    "Never give it to anyone!"


    Liu Bei gave a resounding answer.


    When it comes to Guan Ping, he is Guan Yu''s only son at the moment. He can''t give him over.


    Guan Yu stood on one side, his face as heavy as water. He has heard what Liu Bei has said about Guan Ping. It is not easy for him to express his opinions on this matter, because Guan Ping is also wrong. But Guan Yu didn''t approve of breaking Guan Ping''s leg.


    Zhang Fei is a violent temper, he roared: "Zhang Xiu children, Ping''er really does not have the weight of the hand, but this matter, also blame you Zhang Xiu people, self accusation boring. Mouth long in the human body, can''t you Zhang Xiu say? In my opinion, Zhang Xiu is a cruel man. What''s the difference between you and Dong Zhuo? "


    He is in favor of Guan Ping.


    Zhang Fei thinks that playing well. Zhang Feilai, instead of breaking one leg, may break Shen Rui''s two legs.


    "Good, good, good, good one Liu Bei, good one Liu''s three brothers." Zhang Xiu''s eyes were full of murderous spirit, and ordered: "Huang Zhong, send orders to war."


    Huang Zhong answered and said in a loud voice, "Archer, prepare!"


    At Huang Zhong''s command, the archers in the army came forward, quickly drew bows and arrows, and aimed at Liu Bei''s barracks. The archer is about 80 steps away from the camp.


    Within this distance, as long as the bow string is full, it is enough to shoot the bow and arrow into the barracks and suppress the defensive offensive of Liu Bei''s barracks.


    Liu Bei''s face changed greatly.


    Look at what Zhang Xiu means. It''s a real war.


    Liu Bei said coldly, "Zhang Xiu, this is Xiangyang. Do you really want to fight?"


    Without saying a word, Zhang Xiu ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    "Whew! Whew


    A thousand archers, release the bowstring at once. A thousand arrows were flying out of the camp.


    After archery, the archer continued to draw his bow and arrow, and continued to shoot at Liu Bei''s barracks.

 Chapter 629

    When the bow and arrow came, Liu Bei retreated quickly and ordered the soldiers to come forward with shields to resist the falling bow and arrow.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    One arrow, on the shield. Dense plumes of arrows fall, scattered in the camp. The soldiers under Liu Bei''s command are under great pressure. No one thought that Zhang Xiu would attack directly, regardless of the overall situation.


    Liu Bei arranged for the soldiers to resist, but his heart was also a little nervous, saying: "military division, now the war is on. How do you say we should deal with this war? " In Liu Bei''s mind, he was not ready for war.


    Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "my Lord, the matter has come to this point. We can only fight on. It''s not a bad thing for us to win the war with Zhang Xiu. Because doing so can weaken Zhang Xiu and at least demoralize her army. "


    Liu Bei''s eyes brightened when he heard the speech.


    Zhuge Liang is right.


    However, Liu Bei himself is not a person who does not understand the situation. He thought a little and said: "if we win this battle, Zhang Xiu will come back without success, which is good. But what if you lose? "


    Zhuge Liang was quite confident, and said: "the army under the Lord''s command is also elite on the battlefield, which can be worthy of a war. What''s more, we are now stationed in Xiangyang. "


    "And we are defensive, even if not, choose to defend


    "What''s more, after the war broke out here, the news spread to the city. Liu Biao knew the news and couldn''t sit still. Even if Liu Biao wants to weaken Zhang Xiu''s power, or even with the help of us, he can''t make us lose. After we fight with Zhang Xiu for some time, Liu Biao may lead the soldiers to stop us. So now, resisting Zhang Xiu is the most appropriate choice. "


    "In any case, we must guard it."


    Zhuge Liang said: "what''s more, Guan Ping is the nephew of the Lord. How can he ignore Guan Ping''s life or death?"


    Liu Bei said: "it''s true. If it''s true, we''ll fight with all our strength."


    He gave Zhuge Liang the command of fighting in the battlefield. Even Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others should obey Zhuge Liang''s arrangement and be ready to fight at any time.


    Zhuge Liang dispatched his soldiers to resist the bow and arrow with his shield soldiers, and sent his long spearmen to the gate of the camp, ready to resist the enemy at any time.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, the battle drum sounds from Zhang Xiu''s army.


    With the sound of drums, Huang Zhong mobilized 10000 flying bears to fight. Zhang Xiu''s ten thousand flying bear troops are absolutely elite on the battlefield. To attack Liu Bei''s camp, 10000 people will be sent at one time. This is to take Liu Bei''s camp by force.


    The army moved forward quickly and approached Liu Bei''s camp.


    Soon after, the two sides started fighting at the gate of Liu Bei''s camp.


    In fact, Liu Bei''s fortifications were not very strong. Because he was stationed outside Xiangyang City, no one thought that war would happen. When the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command approached, Zhuge Liang could only send long spear soldiers forward to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    The two sides are at war, directly fighting at close range.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, and did not fight for the time being. By this time the two armies were fighting, and the archers had stopped. It''s because it''s easy to hurt your soldiers by throwing bows and arrows at this time.


    After half a sound, seeing that the fight was not going well, Zhang Xiu ordered: "Zhao Yun and Ma Chao listen to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, both wearing helmets and flapping armor, went forward to salute.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you two are fighting."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, with their guns in their hands, rushed forward quickly and went straight to Liu Bei''s camp.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong again and said, "Hansheng, you are in command of the army. Next, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan and I joined the war together. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong didn''t refuse and agreed directly.


    Zhang Xiu is carrying the overlord gun, he did not ride forward. Because it was the camp to attack Liu Bei, the horses were of little use. He took Wang Yue and Deng Zhan and strode forward with his overlord gun.


    "Sons, avenge Shen Rui, kill him!"


    "Break Liu Bei''s camp!"


    Zhang Xiu shouts with a overlord gun and makes a big stride. With the shouting of Zhang Xiu, the soldiers are excited to find out that Zhang Xiu has entered the battlefield in person.


    Even Zhang Xiu went out in person, not to mention them? The soldiers of the flying bear army, who were rushing forward, were greatly inspired, whining and rushing forward, regardless of themselves, and their fighting spirit was even higher.


    Huang Zhong, the commander of the rear, also beat the drum in person.


    Zhang Xiu is on the offensive.


    It wasn''t long before Zhang Xiu arrived at Liu Bei''s camp gate with a Bawang gun. Zhang Xiuben is a fierce general on the battlefield. His strength is strong and unmatched.


    Zhang Xiu rushed into the battle with a gun. As soon as she arrived at the gate of the camp, the overlord''s gun was swung and swept.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    Zhang Xiu in front of a shield soldiers, the shield was hit fly out, people are directly collapsed on the ground."Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is unmatched.


    He kept on rushing forward, no matter the shield soldiers or the long spearmen in front of him, they could not resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. In addition to Wang Yue and Deng Zhan''s guards, for a moment, no one could stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    The defense of Liu Bei''s barracks was directly shot out of a gap.


    Zhao Yun and Ma Chao have also entered. Both of them are valiant generals with excellent martial arts skills. Killing in the barracks is also invincible, like a sharp cone, constantly pushing inward.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, led by Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun, has entered the camp in a short time, and is no longer fighting at the gate of the camp.


    Zhuge Liang saw this scene, his handsome face was dignified, and his brow was wrinkled.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is so powerful!


    Is this the invincible Zhang Xiu army? At this moment, Zhuge Liang saw Zhang Xiu''s Bing Feng, and his heart was also a little nervous. Because in today''s situation, Liu Bei''s army, has leaked flaws, quickly unable to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu.


    "General Guan!"


    Zhuge Liang gave the order.


    "Yes


    Guan Yu answers with his fists clasped. He is ready to take the green dragon Yanyue sword. When it comes to Guan Ping''s affairs, he is even more duty bound to fight.


    Zhuge Liang pointed to Ma Chao''s direction and said, "general Guan, go to the front left and lead our soldiers to resist Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "Here it is


    Guan Yu''s fist should be thrown.


    He quickly entered the battlefield and went straight to Ma Chao.


    Zhuge Liang said again, "General Zhang!"


    "Yes


    Zhang Fei answered with a clasp.


    Zhuge Liang ordered: "Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are superior and hard to resist. You take Guan Ping and immediately go to resist, holding Zhang Xiu. In this war, we must block Zhang Xiu and the offensive. Today''s battlefield, Zhang Xiu is the most difficult to resist


    "I understand!"


    Zhang Fei clenched his fist, he took Guan Ping to kill.


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes finally fell on Liu Bei and solemnly said: "Lord, Zhao Yun is also leading the attack. Although you are not Zhao Yun''s opponent, but you have to go to resist. Zhao Yunzhong is courageous and friendly with the Lord. He will not go all out. "


    "Good!"


    Liu Bei should also go down.


    Although such a move means calculating Zhao Yun, Liu Bei knows that this battle is crucial. If we can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s army now, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    Liu Bei killed quickly and went straight to the direction where Zhao Yun was.


    After Zhuge Liang''s arrangement, he again dispatched his soldiers to resist. He looked at the two sides of the fight and looked up at the direction of the city. Now Zhang Xiu has the advantage. Zhuge Liang knows that he can''t defeat Zhang Xiu.


    In this way, we can only defend and wait for Liu Biao''s reinforcements.


    But Zhuge Liang was still worried. After all, Zhang Xiu''s army was too aggressive. In the current situation, the sharp deployment of troops is just like this.


    If more soldiers are deployed, the combat effectiveness and offensive will be stronger.


    When Zhang Xiu fights, she goes to Liu Bei''s camp. Where he passed, no one could resist him. When he was in the middle of the battle, he saw Zhang Fei enter the battlefield.


    Zhang Fei''s Zhangba snake spear directly enters the battlefield. He bit his teeth and roared: "Zhang Xiu, you and I didn''t enjoy the first World War in the morning. Now, you and I will fight again. "


    "Take it!"


    Zhang Fei drinks low, the Zhang eight snake spear in the hand, then quickly kills to Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Zhang Fei''s fighting spirit is high.


    He wants to win!


    He wants to defeat Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 630

    Zhang Ba snake spear, thick as goose egg, passed in the air, leaving a shadow in the air with a piercing sound. He smashed the snake in front of his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu knows that Zhang Fei''s intention is to win him. But for Zhang Xiu, he is not afraid of Zhang Fei, and even he has the idea of taking Zhang Fei.


    The overlord gun was raised and met.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of two weapons hitting each other is more painful to the eardrum.


    Under the severe impact of the force, both the overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand and the Zhang Ba snake spear in Zhang Fei''s hand bear the anti shock force. Under the impact of fierce force, Zhang Fei holds the palm of the snake spear, slightly numb. Because Zhang BA''s spear was still shaking at the moment. He made a sudden effort to stabilize the trembling Zhang BA''s snake spear.


    "Take your life!"


    Zhang Feizhang''s eight snake spears swung up and swept away again, which was brutal and fierce.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was raised to resist.


    When they fight each other, they both shake hard from the front, and the sound of banging is heard all the time. There was more than one or two feet of empty space around, and no one dared to get close, because they could not bear the aftereffects of Zhang Xiu and Zhang Fei.


    After more than 30 moves, Zhang Fei''s strength began to weaken. After all, the strength of both sides is strong, in such a contest, Zhang Fei''s physical consumption is very large.


    On the contrary, Zhang Xiu was not affected at all. Zhang Feifei was more and more frightened. As long as he was a normal person, he did not say that his strength was not consumed. The more powerful the two sides are, the faster the power will be weakened.


    But Zhang Xiu is not.


    Zhang Xiu''s posture is still stable. Under the impact of Zhang Xiu''s overbearing power, Zhang Fei constantly retreats, unable to stabilize his body. At this time, Zhang Fei''s palms were numb and his arms were aching.


    "Hoo


    The bawangqiang is hanging and roaring down.


    It was fierce and blocked Zhang Fei''s retreat. Once Zhang Fei retreats, he will be attacked and killed immediately, which is bound to be in danger. Zhang Fei couldn''t avoid it, so he could only bite his teeth and hold Zhang BA''s snake spear tightly to resist.


    "Boom!"


    Two weapons, hit again.


    "Kick! Kick


    Zhang Fei''s face changed greatly. He couldn''t hold his center of gravity and stepped back. When he retreated, he held Zhang BA''s Spear''s hands, and there was already blood flowing, and the tiger''s mouth was completely cracked. His arm bone is more dull pain, arm bone has had internal injury, even visceral shock pain, blood is churning unceasingly.


    "Poof!"


    Zhang Fei opened his mouth and spewed out a mouthful of blood.


    How strong!


    Zhang Fei''s face was slightly pale. He had not yet stood firm. Suddenly, the pupils in his eyes shrank. Because Zhang Xiu once again put forward the overlord shot, the momentum, clearly want to drum up to kill him.


    Withdraw!


    Zhang Fei''s heart, the first time to generate such thoughts. But the idea just came out, and in an instant, it was strangled by Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei joined the army in the Yellow turban rebellion. He has been on the battlefield for more than ten years. He has never been afraid of others.


    Even Lv Bu and Zhang Fei are not afraid.


    Not to mention Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    Zhang Fei clenched his teeth and stamped his feet on the ground. With the help of the power of the ground, he twisted his waist. Zhang BA''s spear, which he held in both hands, kept turning in the air.


    The revolving Zhangba snake spear is faster and faster, just like a rotating windmill.


    The momentum is great.


    When Zhang Xiu''s overlord was shot, Zhang Fei''s eight snake spear in his hand met him.


    "Boom!"


    Two weapons, hit again.


    The sound of the impact is even more than before. Under the impact of the turbulent force, even Zhang Xiu''s Qi and blood are churning. She can''t control her body. She takes two steps back to stabilize her body and depress the churning Qi and blood.


    Zhang Xiu holds the overlord gun''s hand, trembles slightly, and her arms are torn with pain.


    Zhang Fei is not a weak man.


    This is a tiger general, which has a great influence on Zhang Xiu.


    On the contrary, Zhang Fei is even more miserable.


    Under the impact of ferocious force, Zhang Fei''s hands were further torn, and his palms were full of blood. Zhang BA''s snake spear in his hand was knocked out and he couldn''t hold it at all.


    He stepped back, six steps in succession, still unable to stabilize his figure. In the end, Zhang Fei collapsed on the ground with more blood in his mouth.


    The situation is miserable.


    Bloodstains splashed on his clothes and armor, making Zhang Fei''s appearance even more miserable.


    His arm was shaking.


    In his heart, he was suffocating.


    Just now, he was almost breathless and couldn''t hold on.


    At the moment, Zhang Fei''s arm muscle is torn, and the bone inside also has an internal injury. The whole person has no strength in the first World War. Fortunately, a soldier rushed up immediately, picked up Zhang Fei''s Zhang Ba snake spear, and helped Zhang Fei retreat quickly."Are you all right, my lord?"


    Wang Yue, who is protecting Zhang Xiu, looks a little nervous.


    Zhang Xiu is his king.


    He fought with Zhang Xiu to protect her. But when Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu fight, he can''t get in. He can only kill Liu Bei''s soldiers and help Zhang Xiu''s safety at any time.


    "I''m fine!"


    Zhang Xiu saw that Zhang Fei was taken away, and a trace of regret passed in her eyes.


    If his strength is a little stronger, after he defeated Zhang Fei just now, he can move forward and win Zhang Fei in one go. But just a little bit short, Zhang Fei''s soldiers saved people.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    At this time, Guan Ping killed in the air.


    Before Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu fight, Guan Ping can not intervene in the battlefield, also dare not intervene, only in the side. Now it''s not the same. He looks at Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun and almost can''t hold it. He even slightly bows and trembles.


    This is the chance to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Guan Zhiping comes from Zhang Xiu. Wang Yue''s eyes show a touch of coldness.


    "Lord, just a moment. I''ll come at my humble post."


    Wang Yue strode forward with his epee. The Epee in his hand is broad, powerful and powerful, and extremely overbearing.


    "Old man, look for death!"


    Guan Ping saw Wang Yue come out to resist, and there was disdain in his eyes. No matter what old man he was, there was no old or weak on the battlefield, only the enemy. When he got closer to Wang, he swung his long sword and cut it off.


    "Kill


    The lower Wang drinks.


    At that moment, Wang Yue suddenly started to work, and the Epee in his hand passed through the air, and there was a sharp whistling sound of breaking the air.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the blade came to the blade.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    The next moment, Guan Ping''s eyes were wide open and his face was full of disbelief. Wang Yue''s epee, at the moment when it collided with the long sword, cut off his blade. The blade of the sword continued to move forward and ran straight in front of him.


    Guan Ping shivered with fright and quickly stepped back. He retreated to avoid the edge of Wang Yue''s sword, then quickly retreated, and did not dare to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Guan Ping was almost scared to death.


    How strong!


    He thought he could pick up the leak, but he didn''t expect that there was such an overbearing man beside Zhang Xiu. When Zhang embroidery comes to the side of Zhang Ping, there is no protection for him.


    "Hoo


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath to ease her inner breath. When the breath calmed slightly, Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Wang Yue, you don''t have to worry about me. We should have continued to kill just now. "


    Wang Yue shook his head and did not speak.


    For Wang Yue, he didn''t care about killing the enemy and rendering meritorious service. What he cares most is to protect the safety of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu smiles and shakes her head. She grasps the overlord gun again and orders: "Wang Yue, follow me to kill."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue followed Zhang Xiu and killed Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    Before the battle between Zhang Fei and Zhang Xiu, Zhang Fei was defeated. Liu Bei''s soldiers witnessed Zhang Xiu''s strength. They were scared by Zhang Xiu''s ferocity and did not dare to resist Zhang Xiu.


    Mr. Zhang is the best in the army.


    Even people like Zhang Fei are not as good as Zhang Xiu. No one dares to step forward. As a result, where Zhang Xiu passed, she directly killed Liu Bei''s soldiers.

 Chapter 631

    Zhuge Liang saw Zhang Xiu''s attack in his eyes, his brows locked. He thinks that he has overestimated the strength of Zhang Xiu, but now seeing this situation, he thinks that he still underestimates Zhang Xiu.


    Even Zhang Fei was easily defeated in front of Zhang Xiu, even defeated by the army.


    Zhuge Liang quickly adjusted and mobilized more soldiers to the direction of Zhang Xiu, intending to besiege Zhang Xiu with the help of more soldiers and delay time.


    Zhang Xiu with soldiers, constantly killing.


    When Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue join hands and continue to kill, Guan Yu and Ma Chaodou are together.


    Guan Yu and Ma Chao are both experts.


    At the beginning of the contest, Ma Chao was at a disadvantage and lost to Guan Yu. Because Guan Yu''s attack is fierce, and the attack of Qinglong Yanyue sword is like a storm. It''s almost irresistible.


    When Ma Chao started to resist, it was extremely difficult. He was completely beaten by Guan Yu. But after more than ten moves, Guan Yu''s explosive power weakened and his power declined. At this time, Ma Chao could stop him.


    Ma Chao is able to keep it, thanks to the competition with Zhang Xiu''s shooting skills.


    Zhang Xiu''s marksmanship has already gone through the stage of lightness or strength. It is a combination of hardness and softness. But Ma Chao can''t do it. He''s very brave, but he''s less flexible.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s training, Ma Chao''s marksmanship has made rapid progress and has reached the stage of combining hardness and softness. Just like this, facing Guan Yu''s fierce and domineering attack, Ma Chao was able to block it.


    Ma Chao and Guan Yu fight each other. He goes all out and keeps firing his gun.


    The gun is light!


    His every shot, all strive to attack the weakness of Guan Yu, but Guan Yu block one by one. At this time, Ma Chao suddenly heard someone shouting "Zhang Fei is defeated" not far away.


    Ma Chao was shocked when he heard this. Last time at the gate of the city, he was defeated by Zhang Fei, who was not Zhang Fei''s opponent.


    Zhang Fei such a powerful person, in front of Zhang Xiu, is still invincible.


    Ma Chao goes all out to fight Guan Yu. When he attacks, he suddenly finds that Guan Yu is distracted for a moment.


    It was influenced by Zhang Fei''s defeat.


    Although Guan Yu fought with Ma Chao, he was also concerned about the situation around him. When I heard that Zhang Fei was defeated, I lost my mind for a moment. It''s just this moment of absence that Ma Chao''s golden spear of tiger head Zhan has been tricky.


    Guan Yu quickly raises his sword to block it.


    The blade of the knife was lifted and hit on the barrel of tiger head Zhan''s golden gun. Can Rao is so, strength is not enough, can''t swing gun point, lead to gun point of sight change, still stab to his body.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun pierced Guan Yu''s shoulder.


    Ma Chao poked and drew, and the tip of the gun brought out a thick red blood from Guan Yu''s right shoulder.


    "Hiss!"


    Guan Yu took a cold breath, and the hand holding Qinglong Yanyue Dao was also greatly affected. Just now Ma Chao''s shot nearly pierced his shoulder and hurt his shoulder blade.


    Under such a premise, Ma Chao''s strength is greatly weakened.


    Although Ma Chao is young, he is a veteran on the battlefield. See Guan Yu injured, immediately adjust the shot strategy, from soft to hard. The golden spear in hand is no longer the same as the previous spear. It''s light to avoid colliding with Guan Yu.


    Now, Ma Chao''s tactics are specially to compete with Guan Yu.


    A big gun is like a poisonous dragon going out to sea.


    The continuous and violent attack forced Guan Yu to resist.


    The conversion of attack and defense between the two.


    Ma Chao''s attack is getting stronger and stronger. The golden spear of tiger head Zhan constantly collides with Qinglong Yanyue sword. Under the continuous impact, Guan Yu''s shoulder injury is more serious and bleeding.


    There''s blood spilling over and red clothes. Even though Guan Yu is strong and strong, under such a fierce attack, Guan Yu''s body is gradually unable to support, his strength is constantly weakening, and his face is gradually becoming pale.


    Guan Yu''s face was even more embarrassed.


    In his life, he is a man of great importance, and more importantly, he needs face. Did not expect because of a small negligence, resulting in shoulder injury, and then was overpressured by the horse.


    If Guan Yu is not injured, even if Ma Chao goes all out to attack, even if Guan Yu can''t defeat Ma Chao, he can''t be defeated. But now after the body is injured, it is difficult to support.


    His strength is weakening.


    "Kill


    Guan Yu gave a low drink.


    The green dragon Yanyue sword swung, the blade suddenly changed and became fierce again. A knife fell, Ma Chao struggled to resist. If Guan Yu wields this knife in his heyday, Ma Chao will have a hard time or even a hard time resisting it.


    But now, when Guan Yu''s sword was exhausted, Ma Chao swung away with great effort.


    Guan Yu''s eyes flow, turn the horse''s head and withdraw.


    When Guan Yu retreated, his green dragon Yanyue sword was pulled upside down on the ground.


    Ma Chao saw this and did not pursue.


    On the one hand, he saw Guan Yu''s starting sword, which was a similar move to his shooting technique. Once Ma Chao gets close, Guan Yu is likely to turn around.On the other hand, Zhou Zai had too many Liu Bei soldiers. Even if he chases hard, it doesn''t make much sense. Instead, it is better to lead the soldiers to cover up Liu Bei''s soldiers and win the war.


    "Kill, kill Liu Bei''s soldiers."


    "Revenge


    "Avenge Shen Rui!"


    Ma Chao is very excited at the moment, no matter how he beat Guan Yu. In the end, he defeated Guan Yu and won. He was carrying the golden gun of tiger head Zhan, and he kept on fighting forward.


    For a time, the offensive was like a tide.


    By this time, the army led by Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue and Ma Chao had quickly converged.


    The two formed a circle.


    For a time, the offensive became more fierce, making Liu Bei''s army retreat. Even if Zhuge Liang constantly mobilized the army to resist, it was too much to bear.


    Zhuge Liang was in the rear command. He looked up in the direction of Xiangyang, with a touch of worry in his eyes. Fighting to now, has been carried out for nearly half an hour, in this premise, Liu Biao should be aware of.


    But Liu Biao hasn''t come yet!


    Zhuge Liang gently shook the hand of the feather fan, and he had firmly grasped the handle of the fan.


    We can''t retreat from this war!


    In this war, we can''t admit defeat!


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes were sharp and he said again, "Zhou Cang listens to the order!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhou Cang answered immediately.


    After Liu Bei and Guan Yu arrived in Runan, Zhou Cang came to work for Liu Bei. In this war, Zhuge Liang has not sent Zhou Cang, because every general is very important.


    Shaking his feather fan, Zhuge Liang said, "Zhou Cang, you immediately lead 3000 soldiers into the battlefield to join general Guan and resist the enemy''s attack."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Cang was ordered to lead the soldiers into the battlefield quickly.


    As Zhuge Liang continued to put his troops into the battlefield, the two sides fighting in the camp, Liu Bei''s 20000 troops, have all been put into the battlefield, while Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong have once again increased their strength of attack, and have invested nearly 15000 soldiers.


    The fighting between the two sides is in full swing.


    The battle is in full swing, but even so, Zhuge Liang''s defense seems to be very dispirited.


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes fell on Liu Bei not far away. At this time, Liu Bei and Zhao Yun were against each other. Although they fought each other, they did not fight because Zhao Yun had to take Liu Bei''s life into consideration.


    Zhuge Liang had expectations in his eyes.


    He hoped that Liu Bei could persuade Zhao Yun or let him retreat.


    In this way, there is still hope for this war.

 Chapter 632

    Liu Bei and Zhao Yun face-to-face confrontation, he is still constantly persuading, said: "Zilong, although Zhang Xiu is brave, although it is powerful. But Zhang Xiu''s killing nature is too heavy, and she is totally unscrupulous. You''re not reliable following people like this. Even though Zhang Xiu is your elder martial brother, what''s the difference? You should think clearly for yourself. You are a man of profound righteousness. You should not do evil with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Evil?"


    After hearing this, Zhao Yun couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    When he looked at Liu Bei, he said in a loud voice, "Xuande Gong, I''ll call you Xuande gong at last. In the past, you were really admirable. Even if you were Zhao Yun, you were heartbroken. I wish you could not work under Xuande Gong''s command. "


    "Now, you''ve changed."


    "When you get to Xiangyang, Jingzhou, the first thing you do is to separate your relationship with my elder martial brother by letter. The second thing is to make me betray my elder martial brother and make me be an evil person. "


    "Now, you are still criticizing elder martial brother."


    Zhao Yun said in a voice: "I have said that I can''t play for you. Now, I have worked for my elder martial brother. This time, it was Guan Ping''s fault. "


    "Guan Ping is so reckless that he breaks Shen Rui''s leg."


    "The Lord should take it for granted to avenge Shen Rui. And the Lord gave you a letter in advance, asking you to hand over Guan Ping. But you, Liu Bei, not only refuse, but also think you''re right. You slander your elder martial brother and kill him fiercely. "


    "You, villain."


    Zhao Yun clenched the silver spear in his hand and said, "before, I kept my hand everywhere because I thought of the friendship between the two sides for many years. Now that you have said that, you and I have different positions. Don''t blame me for not being polite. "


    "Take it!"


    Zhao Yun thrust his gun forward.


    His silver gun flashed in the air, as fast as lightning, and in a twinkling of an eye, it came to Liu Bei''s body.


    This is Zhao Yun''s angry move.


    Even though he and Liu Bei have been friends for many years. But he can''t allow Liu Bei to slander Zhang Xiu, because that is his elder martial brother. Because of Zhang Xiu''s practice this time, Zhao Yun also praised it.


    As the commander-in-chief of the army, if Zhang Xiu can''t get justice for her soldiers, especially those injured to protect her reputation, how can she lead them?


    In a twinkling, the big gun came to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei quickly raised his sword.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of the crash was clear.


    Although Liu Bei is good at martial arts, and even his own swordsmanship is good, he can''t see it enough in front of Zhao Yun. His double sword was swung away, and the point of the gun was pricked out.


    "Yes


    The sharp point of the gun pierced forward and directly pierced the armor of Liu Bei''s left shoulder and penetrated into his arm.


    One stab and one puff, blood spurts out.


    Liu Bei snorted in pain and quickly withdrew. He thought that Zhao Yun would not do his best to hurt him, but in today''s situation, Liu Bei has no choice but to retreat.


    In front of Zhao Yun, Liu Bei can only be hanged and defeated.


    After Liu Bei retreated, Zhao Yun carried the Dragon gall silver gun and kept on attacking.


    Zhao Yun''s soldiers followed closely.


    For a while, the offensive continued.


    Zhang Xiu defeats Zhang Fei, Ma Chao defeats Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun defeats Liu Bei. Like three sharp spikes, They stab into Liu Bei''s barracks, destroy the defense of the barracks, and enter the barracks, making Liu Bei''s barracks in chaos.


    Liu Bei''s army, even if it was elite, could not resist.


    This curtain fell in Zhuge Liang''s eyes, and Zhuge Liang was extremely anxious.


    I can''t hold it!


    Under such circumstances, Liu Bei''s soldiers will completely collapse in more than half an hour at most. However, Zhuge Liang still ordered to resist and support.


    He believes Liu Biao came back.


    "Da! "Da!"


    Suddenly, the sound of the horse''s hooves sounded.


    A small number of cavalry came out of the city, followed by a large-scale Liu Biao army.


    Wen pin is the leader.


    Even if Liu Biao was wearing armor, he looked quite heroic. Liu Biao personally led the troops out, ready to meet Liu Bei. At the beginning, when Liu Biao got the news, he had already arrived in the city and was ready to send troops.


    But Liu Biao didn''t come out immediately, because he was happy to see the success and hoped that Liu Bei could weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. But soon after the fight, Liu Bei''s army couldn''t carry it. Under such a premise, it is impossible for Liu Biao not to send troops.


    Otherwise, after a while, Liu Bei will be completely defeated.


    Liu Biao ordered: "wenpin, immediately send soldiers to Zhang Xiu''s army and order them to withdraw. Otherwise, we will join the battlefield and help Liu Bei resist the attack for the time being. "


    "Here it is


    Wenpin was ordered to send soldiers to inform immediately.


    The soldiers rushed out quickly and soon came to Huang Zhong''s front. After seeing Huang Zhong''s order, he said. After hearing this, Huang Zhong said with disdain: "you tell Liu Biao that as long as he dares to send troops, I will fight back. Even if our army is one against two, it will not hesitate. This war was caused by Liu Bei. As long as Liu Bei pleads guilty to a truce, we will have a truce immediately. "As the chief General of the army, Huang Zhong has the right to make decisions. He knows Zhang Xiu''s character better.


    So I said no.


    The soldiers retreated quickly, came to Liu Biao and reported: "Mr. Zhou mu, Zhang Xiu''s army will not stop attacking. The general under their command said that if we get involved in this war, we will fight back. They do not hesitate to fight against each other. They will not give up until Liu Bei pleads guilty. "


    Brush!


    The look on Liu Biao''s face changed.


    Eyes, full of dignified.


    He ordered Zhang Xiu''s army to surrender because he thought that Zhang Xiu did not dare fight any more. The current situation, Zhang Xiu is obviously not afraid, so that for a time, Liu Biao is not coming down. Let him attack Zhang Xiu''s army, and Zhang Xiu war, Liu Biao heart is contradictory.


    He''s a threat.


    That''s all.


    Liu Biao waved the soldiers back and watched the fighting on the battlefield. He was in a dilemma for a moment. He looked at Wen pin and asked, "Wen pin, what do you think we should do now?"


    Wenpin turned his eyes and replied, "there is always a reason for Zhang Xiu to attack Liu Bei. Otherwise, how can we attack? Although there are some minor conflicts between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, they are not. According to the suggestion of the general, we should send someone to find out the situation first, and then consider how to solve the conflict. "


    "That''s the only way!"


    Liu Biao frowned and immediately ordered the soldiers to understand the situation. He did hope that Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu would have conflicts in order to check and balance each other.


    Liu Biao did not want to see such a large-scale fight now, even though it was already a red eye. Such a plan will affect the life and death of Lujiang County.


    The current situation is beyond Liu Biao''s control.


    The situation is completely out of control.


    Soon, the soldiers who went to inquire returned and reported the conflict between Guan Ping and Shen Rui. After Liu Biao understood clearly, Liu Biao could not help complaining: "Zhang Xiu is really making a mountain out of a molehill. It''s just a mud leg. Is it necessary to fight


    Wenpin was silent.


    When he heard the news reported by the soldiers, he appreciated Zhang Xiu''s action and thought that the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command were very happy. Because there is a commander who is willing to hold injustice for them, which is the blessing of the soldiers.


    Wen pin was originally the chief General in the army and knew everything in the army. So he felt more deeply about Zhang Xiu''s action. But Liu Biao is different. He appreciates the literati, but he doesn''t like the soldiers at the bottom.


    So Liu Biao thinks that Zhang Xiu is making a mountain out of a molehill.


    After Liu Biao complained about Zhang Xiu, he said again, "speaking of it, Liu Bei is true. Guan Ping, who was under his command, couldn''t control his mouth. He wanted to bump into Zhang Xiu''s muzzle. Now when something goes wrong, we don''t apologize and beg for mercy, so that it has developed to such a stage. "


    Wenpin stood aside quietly. He didn''t have the right to make a decision. It all depends on Liu Biao''s decision.

 Chapter 633

    Gu Yong then stood up and advised: "Lord, if Liu Bei can hold this battle, we can ignore it. But now, it''s not only Liu Bei who can''t keep it, but also Liu Bei who covers up Guan Ping. "


    "On the whole, it is not only Liu Bei who is in the wrong, but also Liu Bei who is weak."


    "In today''s situation, once we ignore Liu Bei, I''m afraid Liu Bei will be completely crippled. Even if we let Liu Bei admit defeat, I''m afraid it will be very difficult for Liu Bei to lose his troops. "


    Gu Yong suggested: "I think we should take part in the war and help Liu Bei contain Zhang Xiu''s army. Otherwise, Jingzhou will be in danger in the coming war! "


    Liu Biao frowned and said, "Sir, you heard the soldier''s answer just now. Zhang Xiu made it clear that once we took part in the war, he was bound to fight back. Under such a premise, if we take part in the war, we will be at war with Zhang Xiu. "


    Gu Yong looks calm, asked: "the Lord worried about angering Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Liu Biao nodded.


    From the bottom of my heart, Liu Biao is still afraid of Zhang Xiu. From Zhang Xiu''s rise in Nanyang County to Zhang Xiu''s role as a great Han Taiwei, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu have never taken advantage of each other in the battle from the beginning to the end. They always lose.


    He is not willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Gu Yong shook his head and sighed: "if the Lord is afraid of angering Zhang Xiu, he will do more. Because if we don''t do it now and watch Liu Bei be attacked, there may be three consequences. "


    Liu Biao said, "Sir, please speak!"


    Gu Yong explained: "first, it affects the reputation of the Lord, so that the people in Jingzhou, and even the people in the world, think that the Lord is weak and afraid of Zhang Xiu."


    Brush!


    Liu''s face changed slightly.


    Gu Yong''s words poked Liu Biao''s pain.


    Gu Yong looked at the change of Liu Biao''s look, and his heart was even more contemptuous. Because compared with sun CE''s full of courage, Liu Biao is simply mediocre and has no ability at all.


    If Liu Biao had not a good family background and a good skin bag, he would not have been able to hold the official post of Jingzhou animal husbandry.


    Gu Yong was in Jingzhou to stir up the wind and rain, to make trouble.


    Now, it''s an opportunity.


    As long as Liu Biao takes part in the war, the tripartite war will be completely lively.


    At that time, the three sides have their own anger in their hearts. If they want to attack Lujiang County together again, they will not have the same mind. This is Gu Yong''s intention, so he wants to persuade Liu Biao to send an army to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Although Liu Biao was angry, he finally suppressed his anger and said, "why?"


    Gu Yong explained: "Lord, Liu Bei is invited. You sent someone to invite him. Now Liu Bei is bullied by Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou. If you sit back and ignore him, people will despise him. "


    After a pause, Gu Yong said: "what''s more, this is Jingzhou, the Lord''s Jingzhou, not Zhang Xiu''s Jingzhou. In such a premise, the Lord allowed Zhang Xiu to show off her power. How do people treat him. Therefore, I believe that once this matter becomes a reality, it will have an impact. "


    Liu Biao nodded after listening. He had to admit that Gu Yong''s words were quite reasonable.


    After all, this is his Jingzhou.


    Jingzhou is not Zhang Xiu''s, Zhang Xiu''s wanton behavior outside Xiangyang City and wanton use of force outside Xiangyang City are equivalent to beating Liu Biao''s face.


    Liu Biao said, "what about the second one?"


    Gu Yong continued: "what will Liu Bei think once the Lord doesn''t care? He came to Jingzhou with good intentions to help the Lord attack Lujiang County. In particular, the two sides verbally said that they would form an alliance and help each other. "


    "In the twinkling of an eye, Liu Bei was attacked by Zhang Xiu, but the Lord let him live and die on his own. I''m afraid everyone has some complaints about this matter. "


    "The final result must be the breakdown of the relationship between the Lord and Liu Bei."


    "In his anger, Liu Bei will not stay in Jingzhou, let alone attack Lujiang County with Zhang Xiu. It''s not worth offending Liu Bei for a trifle. "


    Gu Yong admonished: "Zhang Xiu is a wolf with ambition. He came to Jingzhou with bad intentions. If we offend Zhang Xiu, we offend him. But to offend Liu Bei is a great harm to the Lord


    On Liu Biao''s cheek, there was a look of deep feeling. He clashed with Zhang Xiu several times and made up several times. Anyway, the relationship between the two sides is just like this. There is nothing to make friends with.


    But Liu Bei is different.


    Liu Biao agreed and asked again, "what about the third aspect?"


    Gu Yong continued: "third, if Liu Bei is allowed to be exterminated, Jingzhou will be in a very dangerous situation. With Liu Bei, even if Zhang Xiu has a strong army, he can''t do it. "


    "Once Liu Bei withdrew from Xiangyang, the situation returned to the original situation, and Zhang Xiu entered Jingzhou alone. At that time, Zhang Xiu will launch his network in Xiangyang again. I''m afraid it''s not a difficult thing for Zhang Xiu to capture Jingzhou. "


    "Lord, now Liu Bei is very important to Jingzhou, which is related to the safety of Jingzhou. So I think that I would rather offend Zhang Xiu than alienate Liu Bei. "


    Gu Yong said, "please think twice.""That''s true!"


    After listening to Gu Yong''s analysis, Liu Biao nods and answers.


    Gu Yong was very happy.


    He knows Liu Biao''s ears like the back of his hand. If Gu Yong changed his mind and let Liu Biao ignore Liu Bei''s life or death, or even let Liu Biao force Liu Bei to apologize, Liu Biao would agree.


    No matter what kind of situation, he can say the truth, and also get Liu Biao to agree.


    Gu Yongshen took a deep breath and continued: "although the Lord attacked Zhang Xiu, he had to arrange for soldiers to inform Zhang Xiu''s people that we sent troops to prevent the two sides from fighting, not against Zhang Xiu. This is the premise of the attack."


    "Good!"


    Liu Biao nodded in agreement.


    Immediately, Liu Biao arranged for his soldiers to meet Huang Zhong and asked him to withdraw again, but Huang Zhong refused. Under such circumstances, Liu Biao ordered wenpin to mobilize the army under the banner of preventing the war.


    As soon as Wen pin made a move, he mobilized ten thousand talents to attack Huang Zhong''s rear.


    Huang Zhong sees all this in his eyes with sharp eyes. He didn''t care about the situation of Liu Bei''s barracks, because today''s Zhang Xiu has occupied an absolute advantage, so he doesn''t need to be in command. The next thing to face is Liu Biao''s army.


    "Feixiong army, follow my orders and kill!"


    Huang Zhong gave the order directly.


    After that, Huang Zhong took the sword and quickly drove the horse out. At the moment when Huang Zhong drove his horse out, the cavalry of the flying bear army, following him, rushed forward quickly.


    When we attacked Liu Bei''s camp just now, 15000 foot soldiers of the flying bear army have come into use. Besides Huang Zhong, there are more than 15000 soldiers of the flying bear army.


    The cavalry and infantry are the valiant soldiers of the flying bear army. They were the most elite veterans in the flying bear army. One by one, they are ordered by their fighting experience, and they are full of killing spirit.


    The terrain outside Xiangyang City is flat and wide enough.


    The flying bear army was running, fierce and mighty.


    The infantry followed, flanking. Huang zhongchong was at the front, and all the cavalry of the flying bear army howled and roared. One by one loud cry, fast forward running.


    Originally, the cavalry was not far away from Liu Biao''s infantry. Now under the spurt of the horses, the cavalry spread out. In a twinkling of an eye, they were in front of Liu Biao''s elite soldiers.


    The time is late, the time is fast, and the distance between the two sides is less than 20 steps.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong swung the long knife in his hand and gave a loud order.


    You should know that under the sprint of the war horse, the distance of 20 steps will arrive in a twinkling of an eye. As soon as Huang Zhong''s horse arrived in front of the Jingzhou soldiers, Huang Zhong''s hand fell and the long knife slashed down.


    "Yes


    The blade fell on a Jingzhou soldier, and he split the soldier in two with one knife. The blood sprayed, but Huang Zhong didn''t blink. He continued to rush forward, just like a demon.


    Its fierce power is incomparable.


    When Huang Zhong entered the Jingzhou army, his soldiers rushed forward quickly. In the twinkling of an eye, he entered the crowd. The horses ran back and forth, constantly killing the infantry of Jingzhou soldiers.

 Chapter 634

    Huang Zhong''s fighting power is unmatched.


    He rode his horse and fought back and forth among the Jingzhou soldiers, constantly killing them one by one. The flying bear army under his command is more like a fierce tiger going down the mountain, invincible.


    Compared with the flying bear army, Jingzhou soldiers are just like sheep, lacking combat effectiveness. Within a short period of time, the offensive dispersed, unable to resist the attack of the flying bear army.


    Even in the training of civil servants, we should also pay attention to the combat effectiveness of the soldiers in the army, and let them give orders and forbid them. In fact, for a long time in Chengping, Jingzhou did not fight everywhere, and for a long time did not fight. Although Jingzhou soldiers were elite, they could not fight, and their combat effectiveness was weak.


    On the other hand, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are all immersed in the battlefield, fighting on the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, wenpin''s infantry could not resist the attack of cavalry.


    This is the gap between arms.


    The cavalry spread out and covered up. Huang Zhong''s army is completely invincible.


    Such a rush is unmatched in sharpness.


    "Kill and defeat the Jingzhou soldiers."


    Roar, shout, one after another, countless soldiers shout, countless soldiers shout.


    The offensive, like a raging wave, is irresistible. This scene, falls in Liu Biao''s eyes, Liu Biao cheek twitches unceasingly. He was a little flustered because he had sent 10000 soldiers to battle, but he couldn''t resist.


    The Jingzhou soldiers under his command were pushed horizontally.


    Liu Biao clenched his fist and eagerly ordered: "wenpin, send soldiers up again. This battle must be won. Now that we have sent troops, let''s first stabilize the situation, regardless of the others. "


    "No!"


    Wenpin didn''t say much, but directly responded.


    The current situation, wenpin is able to judge. The army under his command was no match for Zhang Xiu''s flying bear army. What''s more, the other side has a good rider. At least, although the outside of the city is open, it is not an endless plain. If we really get to the plain, his troops will be even more unstoppable and will be killed in a short time.


    Wen pin was ordered to send 10000 elite soldiers to the battlefield again. The addition of this new force is to stabilize the situation for the time being, and Jingzhou soldiers constantly resist.


    In the barracks, Zhuge Liang also paid attention to the changes of the battlefield when he commanded the soldiers to resist.


    Now all the soldiers under Liu Bei are in trouble and can''t stop them. After Liu Biao sent out troops, it weakened the fighting capacity of some soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command and eased the momentum of rout.


    At least, it won''t be defeated in a short time.


    Can also support!


    But in Zhuge Liang''s eyes, there is still a strong worry. Just now Liu Biao sent 10000 soldiers to fight. Without a splash, he showed signs of defeat.


    Now, even if Liu Biao sent another 10000 soldiers up, he might not be able to stop Zhang Xiu''s cavalry.


    The situation in this war is unfavourable.


    Zhang Xiu is too strong.


    Not only is Zhang Xiu fierce, but also the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are just like tigers and leopards.


    This is the division of tiger and wolf!


    "It''s all Guan Ping. He''s a jerk. He''s causing such a big disaster."


    Zhuge Liang''s heart, secretly complain.


    He can only complain secretly, because Guan Ping is Guan Yu''s eldest son. In today''s situation, if Zhuge Liang said that regardless of Guan Ping, Liu Bei would blame him, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei would be hostile to him.


    Guan Yu is the only one who wants to push Guan Ping out to be punished. It can only be put forward by Guan Yu himself that the contradiction can be resolved. The key is that as a father, Guan Yu pretends to be stupid all the time. If Guan Yu doesn''t speak, there is no solution.


    In fact, Liu Bei could not order Guan Ping to be called out.


    Otherwise, what does Guan Yu think?


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes fell on the battlefield, and he also hoped that Liu Biao''s army would win the war, even if it didn''t win, it would be better to hold down Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Only in this way can the situation be turned around, otherwise it will be dangerous this time.


    The fighting is still going on. Zhang Xiu rushes to the battle with a knife. He saw that Huang Zhong had entered the battlefield with a look of approval on his face. Even if Liu Biao sent troops, he was not afraid. He wanted to ask for justice for Shen Rui.


    "Flying bear army, I''m invincible!"


    Zhang Xiu shouts out loud.


    With Zhang Xiu''s cry, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and the soldiers around her also followed her.


    "Flying bear army, I''m invincible!"


    "Flying bear army, I''m invincible!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers join in the shouting. One by one, the soldiers of the flying bear army were all very excited. They agreed with Zhang Xiu.


    We should seek justice for Shen Rui.


    Because of themselves, they may be the next Shen Rui. They are also soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command. At this time, Shen Rui doesn''t ask for justice for Shen Rui. What should they do when it''s their turn?


    One by one, the soldiers roared into the sky.The voice was very loud.


    Countless soldiers of the flying bear army have been killing fiercely, and the attack has shown a situation of rolling and pushing.


    In particular, the mighty voice converges and soars to the sky, with a mighty momentum. For the soldiers of the flying bear army, it is more exciting and exciting for them to march forward.


    For Liu Biao and even Liu Bei''s soldiers, they were at a disadvantage. In the state of being constantly crushed, Zhang Xiu''s army''s momentum soared again and pushed forward like a decadent force.


    Zhuge Liang stares at the situation on the battlefield and sees Zhang Xiu''s soldiers become more fierce. The whole situation suddenly changes.


    Zhuge Liang''s face changed greatly.


    No, the soldiers are going to be unable to hold on. When Liu Bei''s army fought to resist, Huang Zhong''s cavalry had crushed Liu Biao''s 20000 infantry again.


    Twenty thousand soldiers in Jingzhou were in constant rout, unable to stabilize the situation.


    Liu Biao''s expression changed again and again. He looked at the defeated soldiers and the retreating soldiers, sighed and said, "Sir, the situation is not good now. What can I do?"


    At the moment, Liu Biao regretted it again.


    Because I lost again.


    Every time I fight with Zhang Xiu, I have an advantage at the beginning, but in the twinkling of an eye, I fall into the disadvantage again.


    Gu Yong had an anxious look on his face, but his heart was indifferent, and he was even more glad that Liu Biao was defeated. This is Liu Biao in trouble. It has nothing to do with him. Moreover, he is happy to see such a situation come true.


    Gu Yong suggested: "Lord, there is no way. Now we can only let Liu Bei be soft, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. The LORD helped Liu Bei, and he has done his utmost. After all, it''s Zhang Xiu who has too much fighting power. "


    "That''s the only way."


    Liu Biao nodded and immediately arranged for the soldiers to inform Zhuge Liang and let Zhuge Liang convey it to Liu Bei.


    When the news reached Zhuge Liang''s ears, Zhuge Liang quickly found Liu Bei and said, "Lord, Liu Biao can''t hold on. He sent a messenger to make us soft to Zhang Xiu. "


    Liu Bei sighed with a sigh. Instead of making a decision at once, he called Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Guan Ping. In front of several people, he said Liu Biao''s suggestion and said, "today''s situation is very bad for us. Liu Biao can''t stop us. Let''s be soft. You said, "what should we do?"


    Guan Yu clenched his teeth and said, "brother, this is the end of the matter. We can only let Guan Ping carry it. Because of him, countless soldiers in our army died. Because of him, we were attacked by Zhang Xiu again. If we don''t give in, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Guan Ping plopped, knelt down on the ground and said: "uncle, all this is caused by my nephew. My nephew is willing to be responsible. Please give your nephew to Zhang Xiu. "


    "You, you Alas... "


    Liu Bei sighed and waved his fist in the air. His eyes, have been full of tears, said: "pinger, are Uncle incompetent, unable to protect you."


    Guan Yu felt extremely remorseful.


    Guan Ping shook his head and replied, "don''t blame uncle, blame nephew for making trouble."


    Liu Bei sighed again, and then arranged for the soldiers to meet Zhang Xiu, saying that he was willing to hand over Guan Ping''s soft work.

 Chapter 635

    Zhang Xiu is carrying a overlord gun to kill, constantly crushing the soldiers in front of him. For Zhang Xiu, attacking Liu Bei now is an opportunity to weaken her opponent.


    The stronger Liu Bei is, the more difficult Zhang Xiu is. The weaker Liu Bei''s strength is, the lower his existence is. So seize the opportunity, Zhang Xiu will be desperate to attack.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is stained with blood.


    Spots of blood stained robes, the angular cheek, also dyed red by blood. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu is like a demon, where no one can stop her.


    He charged with a tyrant''s gun, and within one foot, no Liu Bei''s soldiers dared to resist. As long as where Zhang Xiu goes, it will become an open space.


    At the beginning, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan escorted Zhang Xiu, but in the end, he followed Zhang Xiu, and there was no enemy around him. Instead of following Zhang Xiu closely, he took a sword to kill them.


    At this time, a soldier of Liu Bei quickly approached not far from Zhang Xiu and yelled: "Zhang Taiwei, Liu Yuzhou has said that he is willing to let Guan Ping plead guilty. Please withdraw immediately."


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    Liu Bei finally counseled.


    For the sake of the army, Liu Bei will eventually hand over Guan Ping.


    In fact, in Zhang Xiu''s opinion, when Liu Bei encounters something, he may have the idea of handing over Guan Ping. However, due to Guan Yu''s face and brotherhood, we can''t propose a plan to hand over Guan Ping.


    To put forward a plan, Guan Yu must put forward it himself.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "retreat!"


    He gave the order, and immediately the flag swayed, and the news came straight out.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds through the battlefield.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, without any hesitation, no love of war, one by one like the tide, constantly retreat. Even when they retreat, they retreat in an orderly manner without any disorder.


    Soon all the troops retreated.


    The soldiers quickly returned to the previous army formation and formed a whole army again.


    Huang Zhong, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun and others all returned. All of them were mixed with blood, but without exception, their blood was the blood of the enemy, and no one was injured.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and ordered: "Hansheng, count the losses. The losses of this war must be recovered. My soldiers can''t die in vain. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong is ordered to arrange it immediately.


    At this time, both Liu Biao and Liu Bei were relieved.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, they seem to hold a breath in their heart and feel extremely depressed. Now Zhang Xiu retreats, and all talents are completely relaxed.


    Liu Biao looked at his loose soldiers and wanted to cry. His original intention is to unite with Liu Bei and save Liu Bei, but he didn''t expect to take himself in.


    If you can''t save people, you fall into the water.


    In this war, he sent 20000 soldiers to fight, but in a broad view, at least 30% or more of his soldiers were killed.


    Liu Bei had a bitter face.


    All the soldiers under Liu Bei''s command are elite soldiers, but even if they are elite soldiers, there are countless losses.


    The loss is too great.


    Compared with Liu Biao''s loss, Liu Bei''s loss is greater, at least 40% of the soldiers. However, both sides, for the time being, have no mind to count the losses, because there are more important things to solve, we must appease Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu angry again, who can not stop Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Liu Biao came to Liu Bei and complained: "Xuande, in order to save you, I lost a lot this time. Well, what''s going on? It''s just a little bit of a skirmish, how can it develop to the point of a military exchange. "


    He was complaining on purpose.


    He saved Liu Bei. At this time, Liu Bei admits that he wants to hand over Guan Ping. He can''t blame Liu Biao. Even Liu Bei owes Liu Biao a lot of favor.


    Liu Bei arched his hand and said, "does king Shenggong not understand Zhang Xiu''s temperament? That''s all, not to mention this. Now, first deal with Zhang Xiu''s affairs, otherwise everyone''s life will be difficult. "


    Liu Bei is bitter at the moment.


    With a wave of his hand, he asked the soldiers to take Guan Ping and the injured Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and went straight to the position where Zhang Xiu was. Not long after, Liu Bei came to Zhang Xiu and said, "I''ve met Zhang Taiwei."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Yuzhou, my official agreed to withdraw. Now, it''s your turn to carry out the agreement. "


    Without waiting for Liu Bei to speak, Guan Ping stepped forward and said, "Zhang Xiu, I did it. Kill or cut as you please. I shut it down. I took it all


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "at that time, you broke Shen Rui''s leg, but in addition to you, others beat up our soldiers. Bring out all the people you have with you. As long as they are involved, none of them can escape. "


    Guan Ping has no choice but to look at Liu Bei.


    From the bottom of his heart, he is not willing to hand over the rest of the people''s, because he is willing to carry things down alone.


    Liu Bei said, "Ping''er, don''t cover up anyone involved. These people, let them out. This matter must satisfy Tai Wei Zhang. ""Here it is


    Guan Ping''s order is to go down.


    Soon, three people came out. It''s just that all three of them are painted. The rest of them were killed in the camp when they were fighting.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she nodded with satisfaction. However, he didn''t do it immediately. His eyes fell on the injured Guan Yu and said, "Guan Yu, this is your good son. Because he, your brother Liu Bei''s army, has damaged nearly ten thousand soldiers. All this is caused by the fact that we can''t keep our mouths shut. The lives of thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers were caused by the closure. "


    Brush!


    Guan Yu''s face changed again and again.


    Originally his heart, because Guan Ping is about to be dealt with, his heart is extremely angry, and he can''t protect Guan Ping. But now, listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, Guan Yu thought of the dead soldiers, and his heart was even more angry.


    This is not only angry that Zhang Xiu is domineering and fierce, but also angry that Guan Ping is making trouble everywhere. If it had not been for Guan Ping''s failure to keep his mouth shut, this scene would not have happened.


    It''s all plain talk.


    Zhang Xiu''s words were more clearly and accurately introduced into the ears of Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    A soldier before, do not know the specific situation, only know that Zhang Xiu brutally kill, so all the soldiers go all out to resist. By this time, they all knew the situation.


    Zhang Xiu came to kill because of Guan Ping. Because of Guan Ping, countless people were killed and injured. When countless soldiers looked at Guan Ping, they were no longer friendly and sympathetic, but dissatisfied.


    It''s all Guan Ping.


    This is all caused by Guan Ping.


    When Liu Bei saw the reaction of the soldiers under his command, he immediately realized that Zhang Xiu was doing it on purpose. He wanted to weaken Guan Ping''s prestige in the army, and even made countless soldiers hate him.


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, what are you going to do with it. To break Ping''er''s leg, you can do it. It''s just that you don''t have to say much nonsense. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing and said, "how can I explain the facts and tell the truth? Are you afraid? Now you don''t want me to say that you Liu Bei are guilty. It turns out that when you run the army, you only recognize your relatives, regardless of the lives of the soldiers in the army. "


    "Enough!"


    Liu Bei gave a big drink.


    His eyes were wide open in anger, his hand was in the double sword again, and he was ready to kill. If he could kill Zhang Xiu, he would like to kill her immediately.


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, shake head way: "have no meaning, really have no meaning. It is said that Liu Bei is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness. He loves his soldiers like a son and his people like a son. Now it seems that he can''t escape the strange phenomenon of helping his relatives and ignoring them. "


    Liu Bei was as angry as water.


    Zhang Xiu is just like cowhide candy. She is completely entangled.


    This makes Liu Bei very helpless.


    But now he is in a weak position. In such a situation that he is constantly humiliated by Zhang Xiu, he looks at Guan Ping standing in front of him and can''t help complaining about Guan Ping.

 Chapter 636

    Zhang Xiu saw Liu Bei''s anger, but he did so, is to poke Liu Bei''s pain. If it wasn''t for Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu would have won Jingzhou easily.


    If it had not been for Liu Bei''s intervention, these things would not have happened.


    All this is Liu Bei''s self humiliation, Liu Bei''s self inflicted. What''s more, it''s no wonder that you shut your mouth. Zhang Xiu is not Amitabha''s temperament, let alone a good man. In this chaotic world of human life, good people will not last long. Zhang Xiu would rather be a villain who can protect his family and the people under his rule.


    Zhang Xiu pokes Liu Bei''s pain one after another, but it is no longer aimed at Liu Bei. He didn''t immediately deal with Guan Ping. Instead, he turned his eyes and fell on Liu Biao, shaking his head and laughing.


    Liu Biao is staring at by Zhang Xiu, but his heart is a bit empty.


    Because this time, I lost again.


    Not only failed, but also because he helped Liu Bei and didn''t stand on Zhang Xiu''s side.


    Liu Biao had a smile on his face. Without waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak, he took the initiative to explain: "Jiang Ping, I just ordered the soldiers to fight. It''s because I don''t want you to have a conflict that I helped Liu Yuzhou. "


    "At that time, when you were fighting on the battlefield, I arranged for people to inform your generals, hoping to resolve the fight, but they were rejected. However, I couldn''t bear Liu Yuzhou to get into trouble, so I did it. "


    Liu Biao took the initiative to explain.


    However, Liu Biao''s lack of confidence seems to be an explanation, but in fact he has lost his dignity. His soldiers, Wen pin and other generals all sigh.


    What a shame!


    Anyway, this is Jingzhou.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu was so overbearing in Xiangyang, Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu said: "uncle, to tell you the truth, I''m very disappointed. You see, Liu Bei helped his parents just now. But what about my uncle? It''s really disappointing that they are not willing to help their parents or help them. "


    "You know, I''m not only my uncle''s family, I''m more reasonable."


    "This time, it was Guan Ping who took the initiative to pick up the issue. It was Guan Ping who broke the legs of my soldiers. It was Guan Ping who was short of breath at the beginning. All this is the result of Guan Ping. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "but my uncle sent soldiers to attack me."


    Liu chuckled and explained again, "Jiang Ping, I just don''t want you to have a conflict."


    Zhang xiudao: "only like this?"


    Liu Biao looked determined and said, "that''s it, absolutely."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "but my uncle''s participation in the war delayed my time to defeat Liu Bei. Not only that, but also increased the casualties of my soldiers. Uncle, what should I do about the casualties of my soldiers? "


    When Liu Biao heard this, he sighed.


    It''s a familiar formula and a familiar taste.


    Zhang Xiu asked for compensation again.


    Liu Biao knows Zhang Xiu''s nature. If there is no good, Zhang Xiu will not give up. He didn''t refuse, because Liu Biao now wants to turn the war into friendship, and he also wants to attack Lujiang County.


    Liu Biao, with a soft look, said, "Jiang Ping, what do you want to do before you are willing to turn a war into a piece of jade. As long as my uncle can do it, I will never refuse. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "grain and so on, I don''t want.". After all, I''m in Jingzhou, and my uncle has to provide food. But when it comes to the pensions of the dead soldiers, we have to ask for them. My request is not high. My uncle gives part of the money, and I give another part of the money to compensate the wounded soldiers. "


    "Yes!"


    Liu Biao answered directly.


    But he was tired of it. Who would take care of the soldiers who died under his command?


    This time, it''s a big loss.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t ask much. I only need 1000 taels of gold and 3000 pieces of silk. Today, my uncle has to arrange this matter. I want to pay for the wounded and the dead soldiers. "


    "Ah


    When Liu Biao heard this, he exclaimed.


    One thousand taels of gold and three thousand pieces of silk and satin are not small.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, from the beginning to the end, has occupied the superiority. Even if there were casualties in Zhang Xiu''s army, there would be no more than 4000. In particular, the number of casualties in Zhang Xiu''s cavalry was even less. One thousand taels of gold and three thousand silks and satins are blackmail.


    Liu Biao looked rather helpless and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Ping, your conditions are too harsh."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so, uncle is not willing to? You know, I didn''t initiate this war. If I started it, I don''t need my uncle to pay for the casualties of my soldiers. But now here, it''s my uncle''s responsibility. Of course, my uncle can not pay. If it''s a big deal, I''ll leave Xiangyang. "


    Liu Biao heard his mouth twitch.


    Leaving Xiangyang?


    Is Zhang Xiu willing?


    Of course, if Zhang Xiu really leaves Xiangyang, according to Zhang Xiu''s routine, the next step is to mobilize the army to attack Jingzhou. With the strength of Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao does not have enough strength to compete with Zhang Xiu''s army.Liu Biao was angry in his heart. He could only recognize it by his nose and nodded: "OK, I agree. One thousand taels of gold and three thousand silks and satins will be sent to your barracks today. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    Zhang Xiu smile on the face, said: "uncle is worthy of Jingzhou, do things atmosphere."


    Liu Biao wants to swear.


    Together, he is unjust big head, should be blackmailed by Zhang Xiu.


    But Zhang Xiu ignored Liu Biao and turned her eyes to Liu Bei, saying: "Liu Bei, the dispute in this war was caused by Guan Ping. Besides punishing Guan Ping and his soldiers, you should also compensate me for my losses. Like my uncle, you give me 1000 taels of yellow scarves and 3000 pieces of silk. I don''t care. It has to be delivered today. "


    Liu Bei''s face changed greatly, and said, "Zhang Xiu, you deceive people too much."


    Zhang xiudao said, "did I deceive people too much, or did you, Liu Bei, deceive people too much? Knowing that Guan Ping has made a mistake, he has to cover up Guan Ping. If it wasn''t for my strength, Zhang Xiu would be humiliated by you. Liu Bei, if you make a mistake, you have to admit it and punish it. Of course, you can not give it. The big deal is that I will attack again. "


    Liu Bei''s expression changed again and again.


    I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so hard to deal with. Once she was counselled, it was a series of blows.


    It almost broke him down.


    But Liu Bei was unwilling, so he said, "just now, jingshenggong has given you enough money and cloth, and has compensated your soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu said in a cold voice: "my uncle''s compensation is for the soldiers who died in the war and died. Don''t the rest of the soldiers who fight so hard be rewarded? If the meritorious soldiers are not rewarded, who is willing to fight for me


    Liu Bei was speechless.


    Zhang Xiu always has so many reasons that he can''t find a way to fight back.


    Zhuge Liang said at this time: "Liu Jingzhou, under the current situation, we can''t get so much money and cloth for a while. Please Liu Jingzhou can pay in advance for the time being."


    "Well, I''ll give it to you."


    Liu Biao shook his head. After all, this time, he invited Liu Bei to come. He also needed to win over Liu Bei, so he agreed directly.


    Liu Bei arched his hand and said, "thank you king Sheng Gong!"


    Liu Biao said: "no need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head, said: "look, this is my uncle, forthright atmosphere. Unfortunately, the outsider is generous and generous, but he is harsh to me in every way. That''s all. I''m too lazy to say it. "


    Liu Biao secretly said, "you can forget it. You are Zhang Xiu. You are the best one." Of course, Liu Biao did not dare to say such words.


    Zhang Xiu settled the compensation, and her eyes fell on Guan Ping.

 Chapter 637

    Zhang Xiu stares at Guan Ping, looks cold, and says: "Guan Ping, you are tough. Previously, you said to kill or cut. It''s quite easy to say that from your mouth, without any hesitation. "


    "But now, do you see it?"


    "Because of you alone, Liu Bei and Liu Jingzhou have suffered countless losses. Not to mention the two thousand taels of gold and the six thousand pieces of silk. Your own casualties alone are countless. "


    "Think of them all dying because of you, dreaming back in the middle of the night, can you sleep?"


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp tone pierces Guan Yu''s heart.


    On hearing this, Guan Ping shivered. He had never considered these problems before. At the moment, when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he suddenly found that because of his own words, because of his willful impulse, such a situation had happened.


    At this moment, Guan Ping''s heart sank.


    No more pride.


    Even when he looked back, he saw the look of disdain in the eyes of the soldiers. Guan Ping''s arrogant heart was directly destroyed, without any confidence.


    Plop!


    Shut your butt and fall to the ground.


    He was completely flustered.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Guan Ping and continued: "you see, I put the facts in front of you. Now, you are paralyzed on the ground, like a coward. Well, it''s a shame that the mud can''t support the wall. "


    Guan Yu clenched his fist and clenched his steel teeth. There was a strong anger in his eyes. He said in a low voice: "Zhang Xiu, you''re enough. If you want to do it, you do it. Otherwise, I will withdraw. I don''t want to see you. "


    Zhang Xiu shrugged and said, "Guan Yu, do you think I want to see you? Say, I see you, full of gas, really don''t want to say a word with you


    "If we say that Guan Ping is the direct cause of all this, you Guan Yu is the indirect cause of the war. How can you be unprepared for this


    "Poor Liu Bei, it''s clear that Guan Ping did it, because you, Guan Yu, are his second younger brother. Liu Bei wants to take care of you, even if he is willing to hand over the person, but there is no way, can only harden the scalp to rush


    "Then, with the present scene, he has to resist."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and constantly attacked Guan Yu.


    Liu Bei said: "Zhang Taiwei, don''t be jealous of a gentleman with the heart of a villain."


    Zhang Xiu said: "yes, yes, Liu Yuzhou is a gentleman, a gentleman of benevolence and righteousness. So a gentleman likes to help his relatives but not his friends. "


    Liu Bei was dumb.


    It''s good that he doesn''t open his mouth. As soon as he opens his mouth, he is attacked by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu did it on purpose. She wanted to take this opportunity to crush Liu Bei thoroughly, so that Liu Bei''s soldiers could form an impression that Zhang Xiu could not be provoked. She must not be provoked, otherwise, there would be endless trouble.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu kept talking.


    Zhuge Liang saw all this in his eyes, opened his mouth and looked dignified. He wanted to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, Zhuge Liang swallowed them again. It''s not that he doesn''t want to argue with Zhang Xiu. It''s really unreasonable and he doesn''t have the strength.


    First, Liu Bei was defeated.


    Defeated, become a defeated general, no voice.


    Second, Guan Ping made mistakes first.


    The two reasons are superimposed together. Even though Zhuge Liang has thousands of words, Zhuge Liang does not have any confidence at this time, nor does he have any verbal skills to argue with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned again and looked at Guan Yu again. She said, "Guan Yu, do you know why you said that just now? In fact, the reason is very simple, the son does not teach the father


    "As Guan Ping''s father, you are neglecting Guan Ping''s discipline."


    "You, Guan Yu, are arrogant and self righteous, which leads to the same situation as Guan Ping. If it wasn''t for your words and deeds, it wouldn''t be like this. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you want to get to the bottom of the matter, this time, you have to bear unshirkable responsibility."


    Guan Yu snorted: "sophistry"


    he can see that Zhang Xiu''s mouth is really against the sky and the air. Unwilling to speak, he stepped forward to Guan Ping, who was kneeling on the ground.


    He pressed his left hand on Guan Ping''s shoulder, raised his right foot and stepped down.


    "Chaka!"


    A crisp sound came out.


    Guan Yu directly stepped on Guan Ping''s right leg. In an instant, the pain spread all over Guan Ping''s body.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry resounded through the air.


    Guan Ping''s body trembled slightly, and his face was full of pain and ferocity.


    It hurts!


    This kind of feeling of abruptly broken legs makes life worse than death.


    Guan Yu loosened his hand, looked at Zhang Xiu and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, Guan Ping broke Shen Rui''s leg. Now I''m Guan Yu. I''ll compensate Shen Rui for one leg. It''s settled. What else can I do for you? "


    "Wrong!"


    Zhang Xiu suddenly said a word.Boom!!


    As if there were endless thunder, Guan Yu''s brain was a little confused. Guan Yu stared at Zhang Xiu, and then said, "Zhang Xiu, make it clear what''s wrong."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shen Rui was interrupted by his left leg, not his right. If you want to pay for it, naturally you should pay for the left leg. Why should you pay for the flat right leg? "


    "You..."


    Guan Yu''s face was full of anger.


    That is the face of jujube red, at this moment, completely become red. Even because the cheek is too red, leading to red black, red purple. Guan Yu lost his mind in a rage.


    He can''t deal with Zhang Xiu, can only put all the anger, anger in Guan Ping''s body, hand again pressed on Guan Ping''s shoulder, and then lightning again.


    "Second brother, no!"


    "No second brother!"


    Two rapid voices came out, and Liu Bei and Guan Yu spoke together. Both of them were anxious, but even so, they were still slow. Guan Yu fell down again and stepped on Guan Ping''s left leg.


    "Chaka!"


    The left leg of Guan Ping was broken again.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry sounded again.


    Screams reverberate in the air, and Guan Ping has fallen to the ground. Where the leg bone was broken, the muscle was injured, and there was already blood flowing out, and Guan Ping''s body was shaking, extremely painful.


    Guan Yu let go and stood beside Guan Ping. The hands clenched into a fist, has reached the edge of anger, about to lose control. He bit his teeth, his voice almost came out from between his teeth, and said: "Zhang Xiu, what else do you have to say?"


    "No, you''re fine!"


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes, with a faint smile on her lips, and said: "I have a lot of adults, and I don''t care about the rest of the small details. Let''s just forget about the pro guards who have also taken part in it. I don''t agree with them. "


    "Hoo!"


    The three pro guards who didn''t die in the war were all relieved. They have seen Zhang Xiu''s imposing power, and they have been scared by Zhang Xiu, and they are uneasy in their hearts.


    It''s a relief not to be punished at this time.


    "Taiwei is powerful!"


    All of a sudden, in Zhang Xiu''s army, a soldier of the flying bear army yelled.


    "Taiwei is powerful!"


    "Taiwei is powerful!"


    ¡­¡­


    From the beginning, there were only a few soldiers shouting. But a moment later, there were countless people shouting. The voices of the soldiers soared into the sky, full of momentum.


    Zhang Xiu''s flying bear army is full of fighting spirit.


    All the soldiers have a proud look on their faces and are proud of being Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    Because Zhang Xiu treats them as human beings.


    Because Zhang Xiu cares about them.


    "Withdraw


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, carrying the overlord gun turned back to the army. Huang Zhong quickly gave an order, and with his army, he quickly left and went to his barracks.


    In this battle, Zhang Xiu won a complete victory, playing the prestige of the flying bear army.

 Chapter 638

    Liu Bei and Liu Biao looked up and saw the retreating army of Zhang Xiu. They both breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, they felt too much pressure in the face of Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "King Sheng Gong, please come in and have a talk."


    "Please


    Liu Biao nodded.


    He told wenpin to clean up the battlefield and let wenpin return to the city with his army. He didn''t have to worry about him. Then, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu joined hands to enter the big account of the Chinese army in the barracks.


    Zhuge Liang followed and entered.


    As for Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Guan Ping and others, those who deal with the injury go to deal with the injury, and those who clean up the battlefield lick their wounds.


    In the barracks, each takes his seat.


    However, Liu Bei did not sit in the main position, leaving the main position vacant. He and Liu Biao sat on their respective seats. The expression on the two faces is a little silent at the moment.


    Zhuge Liang sat under Liu Bei, while Gu Yong sat under Liu Biao.


    There were only four people in the hall.


    No one else.


    Liu Biao sighed and said, "Xuande, if you want me to tell you, you are impulsive this time. In the end, he still broke Guan Ping''s legs, but either you or I lost thousands of soldiers. Not only that, their morale is influenced by Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Bei sighed again.


    So far, what else can we say?


    Even if he knows the present result, even if he is given a chance to have a new life, he has no choice but to fight. Because it is impossible for Liu Bei to hand over Guan Ping. Once Liu Bei says to hand over Guan Ping, what will Guan Yu think?


    In order to stabilize Guan Yu, Liu Bei has no choice.


    Liu Biao said in a deep voice: "about Zhang Xiu, it''s very difficult. You don''t fight him many times, you don''t know much. But Kong Ming has been in Xiangyang for many years. What we should know is that he has been in Xiangyang before. "


    Zhuge Liang nodded.


    But even so, Zhuge Liang did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s attack was so fierce. He defeated Liu Bei and Liu Biao''s army with his own strength. His strength was not a bit strong.


    Liu Bei said: "Jing Shenggong, the matter has come to this point, so there is no need to say more. As for the attack on Lujiang County, I will still fulfill my promise. Jing Shenggong is willing to risk offending Zhang Xiu and send troops to help me. I, Liu Bei, will live up to Jing Shenggong. "


    When Liu Biao heard this, he felt completely at ease.


    He was worried that Liu Bei would leave.


    That''s why he took Gu Yong to talk with Liu Bei. At this time, Gu Yong was also glad that he didn''t see the wrong person. Liu Bei was not an ungrateful man and did not leave immediately. Once Liu Bei leaves now, it is actually quite dangerous for Liu Biao. Jiangdong will also be in a disadvantageous position.


    After all, Liu Xiu''s strength is enough to defeat Zhang Biao.


    With Liu Bei, even if Liu Biao''s troops were weaker, he could still restrain Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao said: "next, Xuande will keep a low profile. When you are in Xiangyang, I allow you to recruit soldiers. In addition, I will also provide food and equipment to ensure the recovery of Xuande''s strength. "


    "Thank you, Mr. king!"


    When Liu Bei heard the speech, he was also relieved. With Liu Biao, he can recover his strength. After all, he has the name of uncle Liu. In the name of uncle Liu, he can recruit many soldiers in Xiangyang.


    Zhuge Liang changed his words and said: "King Shenggong, Zhang Xiu is arrogant and arrogant. You should understand and have a deep understanding. I''m afraid it''s extremely disadvantageous to let Zhang Xiu sit in the big seat. "


    Liu Biao squinted and said, "what''s Kongming''s plan?"


    He wants to weaken Zhang Xiu.


    This has always been an idea. But Liu Biao can''t say it. Otherwise, once he takes the initiative to publicize it, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will have to do it directly, which will also affect Liu Biao''s image.


    When Zhuge Liang took the initiative to speak out, the situation was different.


    This is just like Liu.


    Zhuge Liang said: "now we have a temporary truce with Zhang Xiu. We don''t provoke Zhang Xiu and stay away. But next, we''re going to Lujiang County. When we go to Lujiang County and meet sun CE''s army, we will send Zhang Xiu to the front and let Zhang Xiu fight sun CE as a forward force. With the help of sun CE, Zhang Xiu was weakened. "


    Liu Bei nodded and said, "Jing Shenggong, Zhang Xiu is arrogant. It''s time to clean up. That''s what I mean."


    At this time, Liu Bei did not hide his thoughts.


    He just wants to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    This time, not only his troops suffered heavy losses, but also Guan Yu and Zhang FeiJin were injured, and even Guan Ping''s legs were broken. In this case, Liu Bei hated Zhang Xiu to the bone, and he wanted to kill her immediately.


    Liu Biao said: "I agree!"


    Gu Yong smile, not anxious, not impatient way: "Lord together to deal with Zhang Xiu, calculate Zhang Xiu, is right. But it''s not easy to calculate Zhang Xiu. Throughout Zhang Xiu, he has clear logic, careful thinking, and cunning. To calculate Zhang Xiu, we must be careful. Otherwise, it is easy to repeat today''s situation again. "He is facing Liu Biao now, but he is thinking in his heart. With the help of Liu Biao and Liu Bei, we can pit Zhang Xiu once, and then let Zhang Xiu pit Liu Bei and Liu Bei in turn.


    This is the most cost-effective strategy.


    Gu Yong plans to let the three fight against each other and finally let Sun CE make a profit.


    "That''s what it is


    Zhuge Liang nodded and agreed. He agreed with Gu Yong.


    Today''s fight, he has a lingering fear. Zhuge Liang followed Liu Bei and went all over the country. However, Zhuge Liang saw Zhang Xiu''s Bing Feng for the first time, and then he saw what is the division of tiger and wolf.


    Before that, Zhuge Liang was invincible in Runan County. He thought Liu Bei''s troops were very strong and his combat effectiveness was not weak. Today, Zhuge Liang believes that Zhang Xiu''s army is the real elite.


    Liu Bei''s army should practice according to Zhang Xiu''s army standard.


    Gu Yong continued: "for a specific plan, we can only have a general direction. One thing is certain. We work together to calculate Zhang Xiu. But the specific plan, wait until the battlefield, and then make detailed arrangements. Now, we can recuperate and recover our strength. "


    Liu Bei said, "what Mr. Gu said is true."


    Zhuge Liang looked at Gu Yong and agreed with him, but he was also puzzled. He had lived in Jingzhou for several years and had never heard of a man named Gu Yong. The people in front of us are quite talented.


    This surprised Zhuge Liang.


    However, Zhuge Liang didn''t care about this, because Gu Yong''s position under Liu Biao had nothing to do with him. As long as Liu Biao and Liu Bei are not hostile, both sides will ignore each other.


    Liu Biao didn''t stay much, so he told Liu Bei to leave.


    After Liu Biao and Gu Yong left, Liu Bei sighed: "Kong Ming, we have lost so much this time. Even if soldiers are recruited, they will not be able to recover their fighting capacity. Is it worth helping Liu Biao? "


    At this time, Liu Bei had doubts.


    Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, it''s absolutely worth it. Although the Lord didn''t come to Jingzhou before, there was no conflict with Zhang Xiu. But Yuzhou is bordered by Nanyang County and Guanzhong. Now Zhang Xiu will not be weakened. When Zhang Xiu''s strength increases, we can''t resist it. Now Zhang Xiu is helping Liu Biao as well as herself. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said again: "although in name it is to attack Lujiang River, in fact it is to weaken Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Bei nodded, but also felt that the loss was too great.


    Zhuge Liang continued: "in today''s situation, there are other things to do."


    Liu Bei said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "stabilize the morale of the army!"


    After hearing this, Liu Bei thought about it in his heart, and immediately understood it and said, "but now, how can we stabilize the morale of our soldiers and restore their fighting spirit?"


    Liu Bei was also helpless.


    Zhang Xiu is very cunning, which weakens his morale and makes the soldiers very decadent.


    Zhuge Liang said: "if you are respected by your Lord, you just need to mobilize all the soldiers with your humble position and let your humble position speak. A humble position must cheer up the soldiers. "


    "I believe in the military division."


    Liu Bei nodded solemnly with an expectant look on his face.


    He doesn''t want the morale of the army to collapse.

 Chapter 639

    At this time, they were still counting the losses, so Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang did not immediately gather the soldiers. Two people chatting Zhang Xiu, said the next arrangement, unconsciously time quietly passed.


    Soon after, sun Qian entered the camp.


    Both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were injured, so sun Qian was counting the losses.


    Sun Qian''s face was very serious, and he said: "Lord, the losses of soldiers in the army have been counted. In this war, 7899 people died, more than 1200 were seriously injured, and many were slightly injured. "


    "This time and Zhang Xiu''s contest, we lost a lot."


    "Soldiers in the army, a howl."


    "When I went to the lower level, I heard many soldiers talking about Guan Ping. They all said that Guan Ping was responsible for the incident, and they all blamed Guan Ping. In addition, the soldiers were also disheartened and lamented the strength of Zhang Xiu. "


    Sun Qian said in a deep voice: "today''s military atmosphere is very bad."


    When Liu Bei heard this, he clenched his fist immediately.


    The damage is too great.


    Nearly 8000 people have been damaged and more than 1000 seriously injured, which is equal to half of his troops.


    Zhuge Liang gently shakes the feather fan, and his handsome and elegant face also shows a helpless look. In fact, his heart also blamed Guan Ping, but he didn''t show it. Not only that, Zhuge Liang had to finish for Liu Bei, so that the soldiers in the army could cheer up, so that they could stabilize their morale and dare to fight again.


    Zhuge Liang said: "Gongyou, you will send orders to gather all the soldiers to the school yard."


    Sun Qian said: "many soldiers have been injured and it is not easy to move."


    Zhuge Liang said: "physical injuries can be treated slowly. But psychological problems, once quiet down, do not deal with, will form a shadow. In any case, even if a soldier is injured, he must go to the school


    "I''m going now!"


    Sun Qian heard something misty, but seeing Liu Bei''s approval, he went to arrange it immediately without delay.


    Soldiers in the army, assemble quickly.


    All the soldiers in the army were listless and looked listless. In fact, today''s war with Zhang Xiu''s army was too much to bear, and the loss was too great.


    They felt that they had suffered a disaster.


    This is caused by Guan Ping.


    Guan Yu and Zhang Fei''s injuries have been treated. Both of them were standing in the front, but both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked cold and solemn on their rough cheeks.


    After everyone arrived, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang strode in. Liu Bei went straight to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and stood, not to the front stage.


    This wooden platform is not high, only six feet high.


    Zhuge Liang put away his feather fan, swaggered forward, climbed the high platform and looked around all the soldiers.


    All the soldiers on the scene are wilting.


    Many people lowered their heads, whispered, said the previous fight, venting their inner depression and dissatisfaction.


    Zhuge Liang coughed twice, and the surrounding area became quiet.


    Everyone, stop talking.


    A pair of eyes fell on Zhuge Liang. The soldiers in the army are convinced of Zhuge Liang. Because when he was in Runan County, Zhuge Liang commanded and dispatched large and small battles. He was sure to win every battle and was invincible. He established his prestige in the army.


    Zhuge Liang took a breath and said in a loud voice: "today we are fighting against Zhang Xiu. We have suffered a heavy loss and nearly 8000 brothers have been lost. Nearly 8000 people were killed and injured in a fight, which is extremely tragic. "


    "As for soldiers who died in the war, they have their own pensions."


    "There is no need to say that."


    "But what we''re going to talk about, or what you''re concerned about, is that the war started because of the peace. I think at the moment, the vast majority of the soldiers in the army think that Guan Ping is the one who makes trouble and that Guan Ping has caused countless deaths. "


    Zhuge Liang made a conclusion.


    This remark was echoed by countless people, and many soldiers nodded one after another. It''s because Guan Ping broke Shen Rui''s legs. That''s why Guan Yu stepped on Guan Ping''s legs.


    "Wrong!"


    "You are all wrong!"


    Zhuge Liang suddenly raised his voice. The look on his face, immediately excited up, throwing a voice: "this battle, the fault is not Guan Ping."


    Zhuge Liang, at the moment, gives his conclusion.


    Boom!!


    Countless soldiers immediately began to talk. Many people frowned and thought Zhuge Liang was wrong.


    Guan Yu stood below, suddenly clenching his fist. When he heard Zhuge Liang''s words earlier, his heart was aching. No matter what Guan Ping did, it was his son and the inheritance of his blood.


    When Zhuge Liang said that many people thought Guan Ping was wrong, his heart tingled. But now, on hearing Zhuge Liang''s words, Guan Yu''s deep eyes flashed a bright light, and his face suddenly had a look of hope.


    He is Guan Ping''s father. He doesn''t want Guan Ping to be hit. He doesn''t want Guan Ping to be completely depressed after his broken leg bone. Because Guan Yu broke Guan Ping''s legs, but he was very measured. As long as he connected the bone for Guan Ping, he could slowly wait for the bone to heal, and he could recover with his special ointment.What Guan Yu is most worried about is the trauma in Guan Ping''s heart, which is the most difficult to solve. If we can''t solve Guan Ping''s inner injury, the future Guan Ping will be completely abandoned.


    Zhuge Liang stood on the stage and said nothing.


    He didn''t speak, because the soldiers were talking at the moment. When he spoke at this time, he could only face opposition from a group, so he let the soldiers talk. When the soldiers in the army finish speaking, they will wait for him to speak.


    There was a lot of talk.


    Many of the soldiers were indignant and thought that Zhuge Liang was shielding Guan Ping. It is precisely because Guan Ping is Guan Yu''s son that Zhuge Liang speaks in this way. This is the view of many soldiers.


    Some soldiers believed in Zhuge Liang and believed that there must be a reason.


    Both sides hold different opinions.


    Gradually, when the soldiers saw that Zhuge Liang on the stage did not speak, they came back one by one and looked at Zhuge Liang again. When Zhuge Liang opened his mouth to explain, his voice gradually weakened.


    More soldiers booed, indicating that everyone was quiet.


    Soon the camp was silent.


    All the soldiers stopped talking.


    With a confident smile in his mouth, Zhuge Liang said in a loud voice: "no one is talking now. Next, let me talk. I hope you keep quiet and don''t interrupt me when I speak. "


    "A lot of people must wonder, why am I wrong? I can even predict that many people think that Zhuge Liang is unfair and partial to Guan Ping. Only then can they say that Guan Ping is not wrong. "


    "That''s what I''m going to say."


    "Guan Ping is not wrong!"


    Zhuge lianglang said in a loud voice: "the mouth is on us. How to say it is our own business. What''s more, Guan Ping said that Zhang Xiu was arrogant and domineering, and that Zhang Xiu was unruly. Isn''t that right? "


    "As soon as Zhang Xiu arrived in Xiangyang City, he was unscrupulous and aimed at us."


    "It''s known to all."


    "So Guan Ping is right. Shen Rui wants to fight for Zhang Xiu. He leads the first attack against Guan Ping. Because of his poor strength, he is beaten by Guan Ping and his leg is broken. Shen Rui''s poor strength is also his fault."


    Zhuge Liang was impassioned and said, "we are not wrong in all this. But in the end, it turned out that Guan Ping was wrong. Even general Guan broke Guan Ping''s leg. Why


    "The reason is simple. We are not strong enough."


    "It''s our big mistake."


    "If we defeat Zhang Xiu''s army in this war, it will not be us who will compensate, but Zhang Xiu. It''s not us who pay the price, but Zhang Xiu. All this will turn out to be Zhang Xiu''s fault. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "you all think that the Lord should hand over Guan Ping from the beginning. But from Zhang Xiu''s point of view, Shen Rui made a mistake first. Why didn''t he hand over Shen Rui and bring someone to call him directly? "


    "Because that''s Zhang Xiu''s soldier, Zhang Xiu''s guard!"


    "In the same way, it is impossible for the Lord to hand over Guan Ping. The Lord also protects his weaknesses. Guan Ping is also the Lord''s soldier. It''s on you, and the Lord won''t hand you over. "


    "Whether you or Guan Ping, you are all the soldiers of the Lord, and the Lord relies on you. Both Zhang Xiu and the Lord are protecting their own people. "


    Zhuge Liang said in a voice: "the only thing we have no choice but to defeat Zhang Xiu. Even if Liu Biao''s army joined in and resisted with us, they did not defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    "Weakness is the original sin!"


    "All the fault lies in the lack of combat effectiveness, lost to Zhang Xiu."


    Zhuge Liang gave his conclusion.


    As soon as his words came out, the soldiers began to think about them. In fact, most of Zhuge Liang''s long speeches did not move the soldiers.


    Finally, Zhuge Liang said that both Guan Ping and the soldiers were valued by Liu Bei and Liu Bei wanted to protect them. This sentence moved the soldiers.


    Both Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei are protecting their own people.


    The only difference is that Zhang Xiu won the battle. Liu Bei and Liu Biao are losers. Therefore, Liu Bei suffered heavy losses, but also to compensate Zhang Xiu''s losses.

 Chapter 640

    In order to impress the soldiers, Zhuge Liang once again said, "in my opinion, what Zhang Xiu did is not wrong. Because Zhang Xiu is protecting his soldiers. "


    "In the same way, what the LORD did was not wrong, and Guan Ping was not wrong. But in the end, we suffered a loss, we were humiliated, is the lack of strength


    "Weak is a sin, weak will be beaten."


    "If we were strong, we would not have what happened today. When we were in Runan County, we were invincible. Now we are defeated in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Although we have suffered heavy losses and even humiliation, in my opinion, this is not a bad thing, but a good thing. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "because of today''s incident, let you know that there is heaven and there are people outside. Let you know that although we are strong, we are stronger than us. "


    "Our enemies are not only Zhang Xiu, but also Yuan Shao and Cao Cao."


    "The Lord is determined to help the world, reorganize the Great Han Dynasty and wipe out the world. Under such a premise, if we are complacent and self righteous, we will stop here. "


    "Today''s losses are enormous. Countless sons died in the battle. We can not forget today''s hatred and lessons. For those who survive, we should take warning and temper ourselves. "


    "Otherwise, today''s things will continue to happen."


    Zhuge Liang said: "in the future, I hope that when I fight with Zhang Xiu again, it will be the same force. We can win easily, not lose again."


    At this time, the soldiers were silent at first, and then they talked constantly.


    They understood Zhuge Liang''s words.


    From his own point of view, Liu Bei is right to protect Guan Ping. What''s more, the person who started the work was Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is too overbearing.


    One by one, the words of the soldiers came to Guan Yu''s ears. When Guan Yu heard the soldiers'' comments, he was relieved to see that the soldiers no longer criticized Guan Ping. There was a smile on his face.


    Zhuge Liang ordered the soldiers to disband and let them go down to rest. Then he went to the Chinese Army''s tent with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others.


    Liu Bei took a long breath, and as he walked, he said with emotion: "thanks to the words of the military division, the soldiers'' heart knot was resolved. Otherwise, I''m afraid the soldiers in our own army will start to fight against each other. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "the Lord is wrong."


    When the party returned to the central military tent, Guan Yu stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Zhuge Liang, saying: "thank you for your kindness, military adviser."


    General Ge Zuliang said, "it''s nothing but a smile."


    But Guan Yu did not move, still kneeling on the ground, solemnly said: "if there is no military adviser, Ping''er will be destroyed in the army. Countless soldiers will hate pinger; countless soldiers will resist pinger. In the end, Ping''er couldn''t get a foothold in the army. For Ping''er, a military strategist is no less than making a new contribution. It''s only right that the military adviser should be worshipped by me. "


    As the saying goes, there is gold under men''s knees. If it was not for Guan Ping''s sake, Guan Yu could not have knelt down.


    It''s about Guan Ping''s future.


    It''s worth Guan Yu''s kneeling.


    Liu Bei came up, took Guan Yu and said with a smile, "second brother, you''re out of sight. No matter you or my brother or our military adviser, they are all family members, and they don''t speak two languages. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "the Lord is right."


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said again: "now, my Lord, I have to visit Guan Ping. His legs were trampled off by general Guan this time. Although he was injured physically, in fact, his heart was even worse. "


    "Zhang Xiu is a man who is used to killing the heart."


    "What he said was like a knife, which poked into Guan Ping''s heart. Although the soldiers are no longer hostile to Guan Ping, if Guan Ping feels guilty and remorseful and decadent all day, he will be really decadent. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "when Zhang Xiu left, I saw that Guan Ping was lying on the ground. He was already a loveless person."


    Liu Bei said, "what the military adviser said is true."


    He immediately left with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and soon came to the camp where Guan Ping had a rest. Now Guan Ping''s legs have been bandaged and applied with ointment.


    But Guan Ping looked up at the top of the tent, and there was no expression in his eyes.


    He lost his spirit.


    After being hit by Zhang Xiu, Guan Ping didn''t even have any fighting spirit.


    Guan Ping blames himself. He thinks it''s all his fault. If he had not acted recklessly or broken Shen Rui''s leg, there would not have been the present result, and countless soldiers would not have been killed.


    It''s all because of him.


    After entering, Liu Bei sat down next to Guan Ping. He first said what Zhuge Liang said, and finally comforted him: "Ping''er, the soldiers in the army don''t blame you; uncle, don''t blame you. Even, uncle is very remorseful. It''s uncle who didn''t protect you well. "


    "In front of my uncle, your father had to break your legs. All this is due to uncle''s weak strength. If we can win this battle, it will not be the result at present. ""All this is the result of our lack of strength," Liu said


    In Guan Ping''s eyes, he was gradually shrouded in fog and infiltrated with tears.


    Liu Bei sighed: "what can you do with your guilt now? What you have to do is not to feel sorry for yourself like a lady, but to recuperate and recover. "


    "Then, train again, train stronger soldiers."


    "When we fight with Zhang Xiu in the future, we can win the first battle. Instead of losing again, as it is now. Now, we have our first confrontation with Zhang Xiu. It can be predicted that there will be more fighting and more wars with Zhang Xiu in the future. "


    Liu Bei encouraged: "so now, you have to cheer up."


    Guan Yu stood aside and yelled: "son of a bitch, what your uncle said is what we mean. It doesn''t matter if you lose. If you lose, you can stand up again. That''s the real man. "


    Zhang Fei echoed: "Guan Ping, what you have to do is to practice martial arts hard and strive for revenge. If there is any grievance, swallow it; if there is any discomfort, swallow it back. It''s a shame for a man to bleed without tears and piss like a woman


    Guan Ping took a deep breath and said, "I see!"


    Zhang Fei said: "if you can understand, take good care of your injury and strive for an early recovery."


    Guan Ping nodded solemnly.


    He was very remorseful in his heart, but after listening to Liu Bei and Guan Yu''s persuasion, he felt much better in his heart.


    Liu Bei didn''t stay much. He left with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, leaving Guan Ping alone in the camp. Guan lay flat on his bed, clenched his hands into fists, and clenched his steel teeth.


    "Zhang Xiu, I will take revenge."


    "What I have lost, I will recover all of them."


    "I will never forget today''s enmity."


    Guan Ping murmured to himself that he would never forget Zhang Xiu''s arrogant and domineering manner at the gate of the camp. He would never forget the scene of his father''s tears after stepping on his legs.


    Growing up, Guan Ping never saw Guan Yu cry. Only after stepping on his legs, Guan Yu turned his head to wipe his tears, which made Guan Ping see in his eyes.


    Therefore, Guan Ping wants revenge.


    No revenge, no man.

 Chapter 641

    Zhang Xiu is in the camp.


    The soldiers returned bravely, and each soldier was overjoyed with high morale. For the soldiers in the army, today''s World War I was really a good fight. They fought against Liu Bei and Liu Biao with their own strength, and they were even more subdued.


    It makes soldiers proud.


    The army went back to the camp and stayed for a while.


    Not long after Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, Huang Zhong quickly entered and reported: "Lord, in today''s battle, we killed 4678 soldiers, with 986 seriously injured. Although there are many minor injuries, they have little impact."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "although there is damage, it doesn''t matter. After all, in Jingzhou, we can also mobilize the private soldiers of the Huang family, Pang family and other big families, which has no impact on our strength. "


    Huang Zhong asked:" how can the pension and reward of the soldiers be carried out? "


    Zhang Xiu replied, "the two thousand taels of gold and six thousand pieces of silk and satin will be given out as rewards and pensions for the soldiers. In addition, according to the pensions and awards in our army, we will give them again. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong''s fist should be thrown.


    It means that there is an extra subsidy. Two thousand taels of gold and six thousand pieces of silk are given as an extra reward.


    After Huang Zhong retired, Zhang Xiu sat in the tent and thought about the next arrangement. Now he not only defeated Liu Bei, but also caused a heavy blow to Liu Biao. It can be said that Zhang Xiu has offended the two sides, and the next step is bound to be jointly calculated by the two sides.


    This is very clear to Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a soldier entered from outside the tent and said, "Taiwei, a man named Xu Jing came at the gate of the camp and asked to see him."


    Xu Jing?


    Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes.


    He thought of a Xu Jing, that is Runan Xu Jing, but I don''t know if it is.


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    The soldier went to inform him. After a while, Xu Jing strode in, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Runan, Xu Jing, meet Zhang Taiwei."


    Xu Jing was more than 40 years old, but he was elegant and extraordinary.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I have heard that Mr. Xu and his cousin Xu Shao are good at meeting each other and comment on them. It happens that Mr. Xu is here. Why don''t you ask Mr. Xu to comment for me? "


    Xu Jing heard of Zhang Xiu''s deeds, he carefully looked at Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows, between the eyebrows, showing a look of surprise.


    "Strange, strange!"


    Xu Jing murmured to himself.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what''s strange?"


    Xu Jing said: "according to General Zhang''s appearance, at the earliest time, one word was used to describe the dog. It was a dog in troubled times, and it didn''t end well. Now general Zhang''s face, however, has changed a little bit. It has become a horizontal character, and it has become a heavenly character. It''s a face that''s priceless. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Mr. Xu''s words are really enjoyable."


    Xu Jing said: "what I said is absolutely right. From my point of view, Zhang Taiwei''s face is at least that of Yi Yin of Shang Dynasty and Jiang Shang of Zhou Dynasty. He is rich and noble. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "thank you for your praise, but why did Mr. Xu come here?"


    Xu Jing didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "I''m here to ask Zhang Taiwei for help. In Jiangdong, there are more than ten Confucians who are going to move to Jiaozhi for refuge. "


    "It''s just that it''s a long way to go and needs to be escorted."


    "But I can''t find the escort. It happened that he was in Xiangyang, so he had the honor to ask Taiwei Zhang to help him. He asked Taiwei Zhang to spare 100 soldiers to protect the people from going south to Jiaozhi. "


    Xu Jing arched his hand and said, "I''ll never forget your kindness."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and asked, "Mr. Xu is working for the chieftain of Jiaozhi. Are you ready to win over the Confucians for him?"


    "No!"


    Xu Jing shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "in that case, Mr. Xu is willing to lobby for me and invite them to Chang''an. In Chang''an under my rule, the people live and work in peace and contentment. If more than ten Confucians go, they will live without worry. "


    After thinking about it, Xu Jing replied, "everyone has their own ideas. I can lobby for Zhang Taiwei, but whether they are willing to go to Chang''an or not, let''s say something else."


    Zhang Xiu said, "thank you, Mr. Xu."


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said again: "it''s a pity that a talent like Mr. Xu lives in seclusion in the mountains. I wonder if Mr. Xu would like to work under my command? "


    Xu Jing replied: "Zhang Taiwei''s kindness is in Xu Jing''s heart. But my family and people are living in Jiaozhi. Even if I want to go north to Chang''an, I have to return to Jiaozhi first and bring my family to Chang''an. I''ll take my family to the North first. I''ll arrange my family well and offer myself. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I will wait and see!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Xu wants 100 soldiers. I''ll give you 100 excellent soldiers. Those who are willing to stay and go north to Chang''an can either go north to Chang''an or come to the officer''s barracks. Those who do not want to stay and those who want to seek refuge at Jiaozhi are at liberty. ""Thank you, captain."


    Xu Jing was relieved to solve the problem.


    Zhang Xiu immediately called Huang Zhong, asked Huang Zhong to send 100 flying bear troops to Xu Jing, and arranged for his soldiers to obey Xu Jing''s orders. After thanking him one after another, Xu Jing did not stay and left with a hundred soldiers.


    However, after Xu Jing left Xiangyang, he did not go south with 100 soldiers. Instead, he arranged for people to take 100 soldiers to Yuzhang County, because all the people who wanted to go south to Jiaozhi were in Yuzhang county.


    Xu Jing''s meeting with Zhang Xiu is not only to borrow troops, but also to understand Zhang Xiu and see what kind of person she is.


    In fact, there are more than ten Confucians in Yuzhang county. However, the Confucians who prepared to take refuge in Yuzhang county were divided into two groups. A group of people said that Zhang Xiu was talented and could recruit talents, so they were ready to go to Chang''an to work. On the other hand, they prepared to go south to Jiaozhi to seek refuge, believing that wars were too frequent in the Central Plains.


    It happened that Xu Jing was visiting friends in Yuzhang county and knew all these people. So they entrusted Xu Jing to come to Xiangyang and asked Zhang Xiu to send someone to escort her to the south to explore and understand Zhang Xiu.


    At the same time, it also completed the task of escorting people to the south.


    This is killing two birds with one stone.


    On the one hand, he tried out Zhang Xiu''s situation for those who were ready to join Zhang Xiu; on the other hand, he arranged people to ensure the safety of the Confucians who wanted to go to Jiaozhi.


    Xu Jing arranges for people to go back. He has his own people to convey the news, but he turns his direction to Lujiang County.


    When he went to Lujiang County, he also wanted to visit his old friends. Although Xu Jing is a native of Runan County, he is more famous and popular than his cousin Xu Shao. He has friends and friends all over the country.

 Chapter 642

    Nine days is fleeting.


    On this day, in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu got up early, had breakfast, and gave an order to mobilize the soldiers under her command. For Zhang Xiu, he could not wait more time to facilitate Shi A''s action.


    For Liu Bei and Liu Biao, they hope to send troops as soon as possible. Because only after sending troops can we have the chance to calculate Zhang Xiu. Whether Liu Bei or Liu Biao, there is great pressure for Zhang Xiu to stay outside Xiangyang.


    In nine days, Zhang Xiu also recruited some soldiers.


    In name, it''s recruitment. In fact, a considerable part of the troops are private soldiers of the Huang family, Pang family and Kuai family. So even though Zhang Xiu has suffered some losses after the first World War, the number of soldiers in the army has recovered and the combat effectiveness is still strong.


    In fact, not only Zhang Xiu but also Liu Bei and Liu Biao are recruiting soldiers.


    In a short period of time, Liu Bei recruited more than 10000 elite soldiers under the name of Uncle Huang, and restored 20000 troops. Liu Biao recruited fewer soldiers, but Liu Biao still had more troops and had little influence.


    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu received news that Liu Biao himself led the army, led by Wen pin, and was out of the city.


    Liu Bei also dispatched troops to leave the camp.


    Zhang Xiu did not delay. After joining Liu Bei and Liu Biao, the army immediately set out.


    This time, Zhang Xiu had 30000 flying bear soldiers and Liu Bei had 20000 soldiers. After discussing with Gu Yong again, Liu Biao mobilized 30000 soldiers and 80000 elite soldiers to leave Xiangyang and go to Lujiang County in the West.


    Lujiang County borders Jiangxia county.


    After entering Jiangxia County, the army led by Liu Biao took Jiangxia as a springboard and entered Lujiang County directly.


    The place where Lujiang River and Jiangxia border is called Xunyang county.


    Today, the west of Lujiang County has not been under sun CE''s rule. The whole Lujiang County, to the east of Shu County, was conquered by sun CE. Today, sun CE''s military front is directed at Shu county to seize it.


    Under such a premise, Liu Biao''s army arrived in Xunyang county. Without any resistance, the magistrate of Xunyang County surrendered directly and let Liu Biao take over Xunyang county.


    Xunyang county is close to Taihang Mountain, with vast territory and broad terrain. Taihang Mountain is not only deep, but also has numerous water networks, which is a key strategic point.


    If sun CE''s troops had conquered Xunyang county early. The advantage of Xunyang county was enough to resist Liu Biao''s army. Fortunately, sun CE did not arrive, so Liu Biao could easily capture Xunyang county.


    After a short rest in Xunyang County, the army continued eastward.


    To the east of Xunyang county is wan county.


    Wan county is a large county in Lujiang County, with abundant water network.


    Liu Biao went straight to Wan county with his army. Today, Liu Biao is extremely happy, because seizing Xunyang county is tantamount to winning the bridgehead of Lujiang River, and he can be regarded as broadening his territory.


    This is the reason why Liu Biao is happy.


    The army headed east all the way to Wan county.


    When Liu Biao came to Wan county to kill him, sun CE also conquered Shu county and went to Wan county to kill him.


    Both sides are killing at the same time.


    Anhui county, in the city.


    County Hall.


    Wan county magistrate, named Wan Qian. He was in his early forties, of medium build, and a little fat. But wan Qian''s face was already full of sadness at the moment. In the west, there are Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu''s troops, and in the East, there are sun CE''s troops.


    No matter who it is, he can''t stir it up.


    Wan Qian looked down at the county magistrate and the county captain sitting in the County Yamen and asked, "now, Liu Biao and sun CE are leading soldiers to kill each other. What should we do?"


    Even if he was a county captain and was in charge of the army of Wan County, the two or three thousand soldiers in his hands were not enough to see and could only be crushed.


    "Alas..."


    All of you have no idea


    "Magistrate, in my opinion, the situation is too complicated. If you don''t pay attention, you are in danger of overturning. In Anhui county, there are Qiao''s family. The Qiao family is a big family in Anhui county. Why don''t the county magistrate come to visit and see how the Qiao family will deal with it? "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Wan Qian, with a look of approval on his face, said, "yes, yes, that''s right." Immediately, Wan Qian changed his clothes, left the county government in a hurry and went straight to Qiao''s house.


    Qiao family is a big family in Wan county.


    Qiao Xuan, the owner of the Qiao family, is nearly 50 years old and is called Qiao Gong. He has two daughters under his knees, one is big Joe, the other is little Joe. In history, Daqiao and Xiaoqiao married sun CE and Zhou Yu respectively.


    This Qiao Xuan is not that Qiao Xuan.


    Qiao Xuan was born in Suiyang County of Liang state. At the age of weak crown, he served as a meritorious Cao in Suiyang County. Later, he was famous for persisting in investigating Chen Guoxiang Yangchang''s evil deeds. After Qiao Xuan embarked on his official career, he made a smooth progress. He successively served as Luoyang Zuowei, Qi Xiang and Shanggu, Hanyang Taishou, situ Changshi, and general craftsman.


    In particular, Qiao Xuan not only had the skill of governing the country, but also was able to run the army. In the last years of emperor Huan of Han Dynasty, Qiao Xuan served as the general of Du Liao, defeated Xianbei and the southern Huns, and protected the territory and the people.During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, he successively served as Yin, Shaofu, dahonglu, Sikong, situ and Taiwei of Henan Province.


    It can be said that the curriculum vitae is extremely prominent.


    Even if Yang Biao is such an old minister, in front of Qiao Xuan, he is also a younger generation. In the seventh year of Guanghe (184 A.D.), that is, the yellow scarf rebellion, Qiao Xuan had already died.


    Qiao Xuan of Wan County never became an official, but he was a big family in Wan county.


    However, Qiao Xuan is quite famous in Lujiang County and is a famous scholar in Lujiang. Wan Qian arrived at Qiao''s house in a carriage. In the hall, he saw Qiao Xuan with a clear face and said, "I''ve seen Qiao Gong."


    Qiao Xuanlian said hastily: "the magistrate can''t do this. The magistrate is an official of one side''s parents. He is an old man in cloth clothes. If the magistrate salutes me, I will not be offended. "


    Wan Qian said: "although I''m a county magistrate, I''m also a junior in front of Mr. Qiao."


    Joe laughed, but didn''t like it.


    Wan Qian said that he was a junior, but Qiao Xuan didn''t take it seriously. The official is the official, and the people are the people. He will not think that if he is really older, he will not be able to do so.


    The so-called courtesy to people, there must be demand.


    If Wan Qian is so polite, he must have something to ask for, otherwise he would not be so polite.


    Qiao Xuan said something without nutrition, and didn''t take the initiative to ask. After chatting for a long time, Wan Qian couldn''t sit still and said, "Mr. Qiao, now I''m in danger in Anhui county. I''ve come to ask Mr. Qiao for advice."


    Qiao Xuan way: "don''t know, county magistrate have what doubt?"


    With a sigh, Wan Qian replied, "well, Duke Qiao knows that there are two forces in Lujiang County. One of them was led by sun CE, the other by Liu Biao. Now Liu Biao and sun CE are leading the army to Anhui county. You see, what should I do now? "


    Qiao Xuan said with a light smile: "the magistrate is extremely intelligent and has the skill of governance. Such a thing can''t defeat the magistrate. Liu Biao is old and only sits in Jingzhou. On the contrary, it was Sun CE who was active and enterprising and a young talent. And now, sun CE is about to wipe out the whole of Jiangdong. Isn''t the choice between the two sides obvious? "


    "No!"


    Wan Qian shook his head and explained, "if it''s only Liu Biao and sun CE, it''s easy. But Liu Biao also gathered the forces of Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei. "


    Qiao Xuan nodded.


    He knows Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei are in Jingzhou. Just now, he pretended that he didn''t know so as to answer.


    Wan Qian continued: "this is the most troublesome thing. If Liu Biao is the only one, I''m not afraid of it and can submit to sun CE directly. But there are Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, especially Zhang Xiu, who is a cruel man. Even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals. Under such circumstances, how can I choose? "


    After thinking, Qiao Xuan replied, "it''s actually simple."


    Thousands of ways: "how to say?"


    Qiao Xuan replied: "no matter which side of the two armies, you don''t think about their strength. You only think about their arrival time. Whoever arrives in Wan county first, you will open the gate and surrender. Anyway, you can''t resist, just cooperate. In this way, at least the county magistrate''s office will not be affected. "


    Wan Qian pondered it, which seems to be the truth.


    He can''t resist, just cooperate.


    Anyway, we don''t need him to go to the battlefield or kill the enemy himself.

 Chapter 643

    Ten thousand Qian in the heart arrive to settle, both hands close, arch hand way: "thank Qiao Gong, earlier of time, didn''t want to understand.". Now it''s clear that he''s been instructed by Duke Qiao. "


    Qiao Xuan said: "it''s good that the magistrate wants to understand. In this way, Anhui county will be free from war."


    "Exactly so!"


    Wan Qian nodded solemnly and agreed with Qiao Xuan.


    "Goodbye!"


    Wan Qian didn''t stay, so he quickly got up and left. Shortly after Wan Qian left, a beautiful woman, nearly 20 years old and wearing a long white dress, entered the palace.


    She is graceful and graceful, with a sense of tenderness.


    The woman''s name is Qiao Ying, Qiao Xuan''s eldest daughter.


    This is big Joe.


    When she saw Qiao Xuan, she bowed to him and said, "father, the luggage at home has been packed up. All the things you arranged have been dealt with. We can go now. "


    "I won''t go."


    Qiao Xuan shook his head.


    Big Qiao blinked. In his big black and shining eyes, he was full of doubts and said, "my father said that sun CE and Liu Biao have already come to Wan county to kill. Wan county will become a place of no avail. Let my daughter pack up and prepare to leave for refuge?"


    Qiao Xuan stroked the beard under his jaw and said, "that was the previous idea, but now it''s not necessary. Before that, I didn''t know how Wan Qian, the county magistrate, was going to deal with it. But now, knowing what Wan Qian is doing, it''s not the same. You don''t have to leave. "


    Big Qiao said: "what will Wanqian do?"


    Qiao Xuan replied, "Wan Qian asked me what I should do. Therefore, I told him that no matter who came to Wanxian, they would not resist and let the other party attack. As long as Wan qian does not resist, there will be no war in Wan county. If we are in the city, there is no danger. So now, you don''t have to leave home. "


    Big Qiao said: "father, you also said, Liu Biao and sun CE confrontation, easy to bring disaster to the fish."


    Qiao Xuan said: "even if it''s going to hurt the fish in the pond, we don''t care about anything. There won''t be any problem if we shut the door and thank the guests. Now, don''t go out. Your sister, too, has been staying at home for some time


    "My daughter knows!"


    Big Joe nodded and turned away.


    After Daqiao left, another attendant came in and reported: "master, Xu Jing is visiting."


    "Please


    Qiao Xuan''s face brightened when he heard that.


    Xu Jing is his good friend.


    The attendant went to inform him that Xu Jing had entered the hall in a short time. His face, brimming with a brilliant smile, arched: "brother Qiao, after years of absence, your style is still ah."


    Qiao Xuan arched his hand and said with a smile, "the same is true of my younger brother. Unexpectedly, my younger brother came to Lujiang County. This time, I will stay in Wan County for a few days before I leave. "


    Xu Jing said, "I''m bothering brother Qiao."


    Qiao Xuan way: "between you and me, say these then see outside."


    "Somebody, warm a pot of wine."


    Qiao Xuan immediately ordered to go down, now in October, the weather gradually turned cold, quite cold. They sat down and told each other. It wasn''t long. A valet brought warm drinks. They had a good conversation while drinking.


    After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.


    With a smile on his face, Xu Jing said, "brother, you know something about the art of recognizing people. This time I went to Xiangyang and found a strange thing. "


    Qiao Xuan said, "what''s the matter?"


    His friendship with Xu Jing is not only because they are intimate with each other, but also because they both know how to know people and have common interests. However, compared with Xu Jing, Qiao Xuan simply looks at people''s faces. He is amateur, just a hobby.


    Xu Jing replied, "I met Zhang Xiu in Xiangyang. According to the art of observing people that I have learned, Zhang Xiu''s appearance should have been the one of hardship and exile. "


    "But now his appearance has changed. He has the appearance of the son of heaven, which is very precious. But I didn''t say it clearly, but I mentioned it in a vague way. I can''t understand his face. "


    Xu Jing said: "it seems that in the dark, there is a force that has changed Zhang Xiu''s life style and face."


    "No way!"


    Qiao Xuan chuckled and said, "when you talk to me, you told me that one''s face depends on one''s face, one''s resume and the other''s behavior. That''s a mystery. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Xu Jing chuckled and said: "although it is said that, this appearance is really so."


    Qiao Xuan said: "I think you are too serious. What''s more, Zhang Xiu rose in Nanyang County, occupied Guanzhong, conquered Xiliang, defeated Cao Cao, and retired Yuan Shao. She is powerful. Such a person is really very powerful. "


    Xu Jing said: "you say, is it possible for Zhang Xiu to dominate the world?"


    Qiao Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said: "how can I know that in today''s world, chaos is everywhere, and the princes are in power. Cao Cao alone, holding the emperor to order the princes, and Yuan Shao, who is the most powerful in Jizhou. Even if both sides had been defeated by Zhang Xiu, in fact, it is still unknown that they really want to fight again. You said that Zhang Xiu might dominate the world. Who knows? "Xu Jing said with a smile: "now, Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are going to Lujiang County together, and they will soon arrive in Wan county. When you see Zhang Xiu, you will be impressed. "


    Qiao Xuan said: "my brother is so optimistic about Zhang Xiu?"


    Xu Jing replied, "yes, I even have plans to move from Jiaozhi to Chang''an."


    "Oh..."


    Qiao Xuan''s eyebrows rose, showing a look of surprise.


    He knows what Xu Jing is.


    Xu Jing''s vision is clearer. He once evaded the war and went to various places. He was received by the prefects of various counties. They all expressed their willingness to recruit Xu Jing, but Xu Jing didn''t work for anyone. It''s not that he didn''t want to, it''s that he didn''t look up to him.


    Unexpectedly, Xu Jing had the idea of becoming an official.


    Qiao Xuan pondered and said, "I want to see how this embroidery looks."


    Xu Jing said with a smile: "after seeing it, I will naturally have a deep impression."


    Two people chatting, very warm.


    Then in the yard, Big Joe came to the yard, saw little Joe, and said: "little sister, my father said, we don''t need to move for the time being. I''ll put my bags on hold for the time being. I don''t have to take care of them. "


    Xiao Qiao''s name is Qiao Shuang, Qiao Xuan''s little daughter.


    Compared with big Qiao''s gentle and quiet, little Qiao''s temperament is more lively. He said happily, "it''s best not to leave Wan county. It''s boring to leave Wan county. Especially after leaving Wan County, I was not familiar with my life and land, and it was not easy to play. If we stay in Wan County, we can often go around. There are delicious and interesting things in Wan county. "


    Big Qiao way: "father said, recently forbid to go out."


    Xiao Qiao said: "I know, war, don''t worry, I won''t go out."


    As soon as the words changed, Xiao Qiao said: "elder sister, I recently found a new food, which is pork from Chang''an. The pork of Chang''an has no flavor. It''s very delicious when cooked. You know, I''m good at cooking. My father loves the food I cook. "


    "Don''t, don''t..."


    When Big Joe heard this, his face changed and he said, "no one dares to compliment the food you cook. That is to say, my father was generous enough to eat them all. I had diarrhea for two days. "


    Big Joe doesn''t dare to compliment Little Joe on his cooking.


    Her younger sister is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is very talented. The key to cooking is that it''s non-toxic, but Joe doesn''t like it better than pig food.


    Little Qiao Xiu eyebrows slightly frown up, way: "elder sister, you so don''t trust me?"? I don''t believe in my cooking. "


    She had a look of weeping, a pair of big eyes blinking, as if instantly covered with a layer of water mist.


    "You..."


    Big Joe waved his hand and said, "well, well, go ahead and get your hands on it."


    "Good!"


    Little Joe got permission, and with a happy smile on his face, he left in a hurry, busy with his cooking.

 Chapter 644

    The army led by Liu Biao is on its way. There was little time to stop and recuperate all the way. The army soon entered the territory of Wan county and went straight to the county seat of Wan county.


    Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu all got news that sun Cegang had entered Anhui county.


    Therefore, Liu Biao went all out on his way. Before sun CE arrived, he wanted to take Wan County, and then fight with sun CE in Wan County, which was Liu Biao''s intention.


    The army advanced at full speed and arrived at the foot of Wanxian city tower in mid October. According to the information sent back by the sentinel, sun CE was still two and a half days away from Wan County, and Liu Biao arrived in Wan county first.


    The army arrived outside the city.


    Wan Qian, the magistrate of Wan County, saw Liu Biao''s arrival first. Without any hesitation, he adopted Qiao Xuan''s suggestion and took his civil and military officers to open the gate to welcome Liu Biao into the city.


    Liu Biao''s army moved in directly.


    The army quickly took control of the four gates and incorporated the troops in the city.


    Wan County fell into Liu Biao''s hands.


    However, Liu Biao didn''t change the county magistrate. Once he changes Wanqian who surrendered now, who dares to surrender? So what we need to do now is to ensure the stability of Wan county and constantly clean up Lujiang County.


    In order to appease Wan Qian, Liu Biao specially entrusted Wan Qian to take up his post and be a down-to-earth official. Liu Biao''s words made Wan Qian''s heart more stable and worried.


    Wan Qian deals with government affairs in the county government, while Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed in the city barracks.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Where Liu Biao was stationed.


    Liu Biao''s side, has been with Gu Yong, Gu Yong''s advice, Liu Biao can be at ease.


    Liu Biao looked at Gu Yong and asked, "Sir, we have conquered Wan county. At present, sun CE is also going to Anhui county. What do you think we should do at this time? How can we defeat sun CE? "


    Gu Yong said: "the best way is to let Zhang Xiu meet sun CE. Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei are invited to discuss with each other, and Zhang Xiu will lead the army to resist sun CE first. "


    "I''m afraid it''s very difficult!"


    Liu Biao''s face was slightly dignified when he heard Gu Yong''s words.


    It''s not easy to do.


    Gu Yong said: "even if it''s not easy to do, you have to try. How do you know if you don''t try? "


    Now, Liu Biao''s army is about to fight sun CE. What Gu Yong wants to do is to instigate Liu Biao to deal with Zhang Xiu, and then cause civil strife. Before that, Zhang Xiu met Liu Biao and Liu Bei, and Gu Yong was very satisfied.


    Up to now, Gu Yong hopes to make Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu fight against each other. In this way, sun CE could sweep Anhui county and even capture Lujiang County without any effort.


    Liu Biao thought for a moment, agreed with Gu Yong''s words, and said: "take a rest in the county for a day, and call Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu tomorrow morning, and decide what Zhang Xiu will attack."


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Gu Yong flattered directly.


    He doesn''t want Liu Biao to fall out with Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu now, because sun CE hasn''t arrived yet. After sun CE''s army arrived, Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu fought against each other and their strength weakened. Sun CE could send troops at any time. That was the best.


    Therefore, Gu Yong did not persuade.


    In Liu Biao''s barracks, Wen hired stable soldiers and arranged defense.


    Liu Bei''s barracks are even more strict. He learned the lesson from Zhang Xiu''s attack last time. Now that the army is stationed, Liu Bei has prepared sufficient defensive equipment to deal with the sudden war.


    It''s a lesson to learn.


    Liu Bei''s army layout is strict. In fact, Zhang Xiu''s army layout is rather simple. Because Zhang Xiu was determined, Liu Bei and Liu Biao did not dare to attack him directly. For the time being, there would be no war in Wan county.


    Rao is so. Huang Zhong arranged patrol soldiers to prevent emergencies.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    Zhang Xiuzheng looks through the information about sun CE. Now the army led by sun CE has exceeded 40000 elite soldiers. Not only that, sun CE''s attack on Lujiang County was almost smooth without any obstacles.


    In fact, this is not the first time that sun CE attacked Lujiang County.


    At the beginning, Sun Jian died in Jingzhou. Sun CE was too young to take charge of the army, so he joined Yuan Shu. He once attacked Lujiang County for Yuan Shu. At that time, sun CE led the soldiers to kill Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang, and Lu Kang died in Lujiang County. Sun CE is familiar with Lujiang.


    Zhang Xiu knows that sun CE is familiar with the terrain and landform, and it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to take this war lightly.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, Wang Yue''s voice came from outside.


    There was joy and excitement in Wang Yue''s voice. He entered in a hurry, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said: "Lord, it''s done. Shi a, with Gu Yong''s family, has returned to the barracks. Now, Gu Yong''s family has been placed in the military camp. "


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu stands up and smiles brightly.Yes!


    The plan of sun CE and Gu Yong finally came true.


    Zhang Xiu praised Shi ah one after another, and said, "Shi ah is very meritorious. I''ll promote him to be the general of Yangwei and the deputy commander of the royal guards. I''ll help you with your work."


    "Thank you


    Wang Yue was happy in his heart and felt happy for Shi a.


    Shi a, the former deputy commander of the royal guards, acted on behalf of Wang Yue. But in fact, Shi a has no clear official position, which is not easy to command and frighten the people of the royal guards.


    But now, Zhang Xiu personally arranges Shi A''s position, the situation is different.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "where are Shi''a people?"


    Wang Yue said: "he took people to walk in the daytime and at night, and the whole person had a taste and went to wash. In a short time, Shi a will come to the big account of the Chinese army and report to the Lord himself. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and praised Shi A''s contribution this time. It can be said that with Gu Yong''s family, Zhang Xiu has the opportunity to break the status quo and win the initiative in the war.


    Soon, Shia entered.


    Shi a explained his trip to Jiangdong to Zhang Xiu, and finally said: "this time in Wujun, there was a thrilling moment. At that time, he was almost found. Thanks to Lu Xun''s help, he took us to Lu''s house and avoided the inspection. We left Wujun county and Wuxian county through the channel of Lujia, and then we were able to reach Lujiang County by water


    Lu Xun?


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    He knew Lu Xun. You know, in history, he was the governor of the eastern Wu Dynasty. But for Lu Xun today, sun CE is a great enemy of Lu''s family.


    Lu Kang, Lu Xun''s grandfather, was forced to die by sun CE when he was defending Lujiang County.


    At that time, if Lu Kang had not arranged in advance to send Lu Xun, Lu Ji and other Lu family members to Wu County for refuge, the Lu family would have died in sun CE''s hands.


    Lu Xun was very hostile to sun CE.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, you arrange for the royal guards to lurk in Wu County and contact Lu Xun to persuade Lu Xun to come to our side and let Lu Xun work for me."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand to respond.


    But for Wang Yue, he didn''t know Lu Xun and what kind of person he was. It''s just Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. He wants to carry it out.


    Zhang Xiu also asked Shi a many details in Wu County, just let Shi a retreat. At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s heart is open. Because of Gu Yong''s family, the situation is different. Zhang Xiu has room to operate.

 Chapter 645

    Liu Bei camp, military camp.


    In his camp, Guan Yu wrote a letter and sent it back to Xiangyang. He sent a messenger back to Guan Ping, who stayed in Xiangyang. After all, Guan Ping''s legs were broken and it was not easy to move, so he stayed in Xiangyang.


    From time to time, Guan Yu wrote a letter to tell Guan Ping about the situation along the way.


    After he had written the letter and sent it out, he wandered in the army. Now Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have recovered from their injuries and can fight again. When he was wandering around, he heard soldiers talking that there was a group of Sister Flowers in Qiao''s family in Wan County, which were Qiao Xuan''s two daughters.


    When Guan Yu heard this, he thought of Zhuge Liang.


    Now Zhuge Liang is still unmarried. It''s a good choice to talk to Zhuge Liang.


    After all, Zhuge Liang is a talented young man.


    Because of Zhuge Liang''s words, Guan Ping was able to cheer up and avoid being hostile and excluded by the soldiers in the army. Guan Yu has always kept this matter in mind, so Guan Yu wants to repay Zhuge Liang.


    Guan Yu had an idea in his mind. He went to the Chinese Army''s tent immediately. When he saw Liu Bei, he reported: "brother, I heard from the soldiers in the army that there are a pair of Sister Flowers in Wan county. They are the two daughters of the famous Qiao Xuan. They are all of a marriageable age


    Liu Bei moved in his heart and asked, "do you want a concubine?"


    Guan Yu has a wife.


    So now, even if Guan Yu takes another woman, he can only take a concubine.


    Guan Yu shook his head and replied: "brother, I''m wrong. I already have a wife. Why take concubines again. For me, more women is a burden. It''s better to read more books and practice more soldiers. "


    For a moment, Liu Bei got confused and asked, "well, how did the second younger brother think about it?"


    Guan Yu immediately said: "my plan is to propose for the military adviser and the third younger brother. Both my brother and I have been married for many years. But the third younger brother has been following his elder brother up to now. Although the third younger brother once married, the third younger brother''s wife died early after giving birth to a son, and the third younger brother''s eldest son also died early. Now the third younger brother has no son and no one to warm the bed. "


    "So I''m going to propose for my third brother."


    "Apart from that, it''s the same with the military division. A military adviser is a talented young man, but he is still unmarried and can propose for him. The most important thing is that the two daughters of Duke Qiao are sisters


    Guan Yu said eagerly: "the third younger brother and the third younger brother married the two sisters of the Qiao family respectively. The third younger brother and the third younger brother are relatives, which is equal to our three brothers and the third younger brother, who are also brothers. In this way, won''t it bring us closer to the military division? "


    "Wonderful


    When Liu Bei heard this, his eyes lit up.


    Although Zhuge Liang is his military adviser, Liu Bei always thinks that the relationship is not close enough. If you can get Xiaoqiao for Zhuge Liang and Daqiao for Zhang Fei, it''s an excellent opportunity to close the relationship between the two sides.


    Liu Bei said, "I can be the master there. But the military division is here. Do you want to inform the military division? "


    "No need."


    Guan Yu said directly: "my elder brother knows the situation of the military division. If the parents of a military adviser die, and the elder brother is the master of the military adviser, he is the elder of the military adviser. "


    "Elder brother, you should be the master of the army."


    "What''s more, when it comes to men and women, what if the military adviser is shy and unwilling?"


    Guan Yu said: "I suggest that my elder brother lead the way, take me and my third brother, and go directly to Qiao''s house to propose marriage, so as to settle the matter. Once everything is done, there is no possibility for the military division to refuse. "


    Liu Bei smile on his face, said: "so good!"


    Immediately, the soldiers arranged by Liu Bei called Zhang Fei, led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei out of the barracks and went straight to Qiao''s house. Along the way, Zhang Fei was curious about what to do with Qiao''s family. When he learned that he was going to propose a marriage and marry him, Zhang Fei muttered: "brother, it''s too troublesome. Let''s fight everywhere. How can we get married?"


    Liu Bei stares at Zhang Fei, but Zhang Fei doesn''t speak. Zhang Fei was very sad and could only murmur in his heart, but he didn''t refuse. After all, it was his elder brother''s kindness.


    Three people came to Qiao''s house soon.


    Liu Bei was identified as the emperor''s uncle. When he visited as the emperor''s uncle, Qiao Xuan did not dare to neglect him. He met Liu Bei in the hall immediately, which was very solemn.


    Take your seat.


    Qiao Xuan sits in the main position, Liu Bei sits in the first place on the right, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are like two generals of hem ha, standing behind Liu Bei honestly.


    Qiao Xuan said with a smile: "uncle Liu is here in person. I don''t know why he came here?"


    Liu Bei didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "Mr. Qiao, I''m here today for two weddings. I have a thick face, especially to protect the media. "


    Qiao Xuan frowned slightly.


    The two daughters under his knees are both flesh and blood. Qiao Xuan intends to choose a son-in-law of his own accord. In particular, Qiao Xuan''s eldest daughter, who is nearly 20 years old, is relatively old, but so far has no marriage. It''s not that no one has proposed marriage, but Qiao Xuan doesn''t like it.


    That''s why it''s been put off until now.


    Now, Liu Bei wants to protect the media.


    Although the Qiao family is a big family in the city of Wan County, they are nothing in front of princes like Liu Bei. If he refuses Liu Bei, he is afraid of being slaughtered and attacked by Liu Bei.This is what Qiao Xuan is worried about.


    However, Qiao Xuan soon recovered his calm and asked with a smile, "uncle Liu personally protects the media. I don''t know who to protect the media for?"


    Liu Bei replied, "the first person is my third brother Zhang Fei. Although the third brother is simple and straightforward, he has the courage of all men. He is a tiger general on the battlefield. He is invincible on the battlefield. "


    As he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Fei.


    At the moment, Zhang Fei, dressed in a black Samurai suit and a swallow chin and a tiger beard, looks very brave and powerful. It was just that Zhang Fei''s dignity, leopard''s head and eyes, swallow''s chin and tiger''s beard, made Qiao Xuan unhappy.


    How could his daughter marry such an ignorant man.


    Qiao Xuan still did not reveal anything, said: "in addition to uncle Liu''s third brother, who is the other person?"


    Liu Bei once again said: "the other person is Zhuge Liang, the military adviser beside me. This person comes from Zhuge family of Langya state. Before that, the military adviser had been living in Jingzhou, known as Wolong, and was also quite famous in Jingzhou. "


    Qiao Xuan said, "where are the people?"


    Qiao Xuan doesn''t know about Zhuge Liang. Especially the so-called Wolong, he did not know. After all, today''s Zhuge Liang is not as prominent as in history.


    Liu Bei said, "the military adviser is busy with military affairs and has no time to come."


    Qiao Xuan was angry when he heard that.


    You want to propose, but no one comes. No matter how busy you are, when it comes to such a big event as getting married, how can you not come? Even Qiao Xuan didn''t like Zhuge Liang.


    No matter who Zhuge Liang is.


    Qiao Xuan is not satisfied with Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang. But the point is that Liu Bei''s family can''t afford to offend him. Once Liu Bei gets angry, Liu Bei can find any reason to destroy the Qiao family.


    Qiao Xuan at the moment, some regret in his heart. If I had known, I should have left instead of staying in Wan county. So that now stay in Anhui county, but it is in trouble.


    Qiao Xuan thought about it in his heart, and then he immediately said with a smile, "I have understood what uncle Liu is thinking. Please wait a moment for uncle Liu. I''ll go to the backyard and ask about the old wife and the two daughters


    Guan Yu, with a pile of whiskers under his jaw, disdained to say: "the marriage of children is the order of parents and the words of matchmakers. Can''t Mr. Qiao make a decision on such a thing? "


    Qiao Xuan said with a smile: "it''s always better for a family to discuss with others."


    Liu Bei stares at Guan Yu, and Guan Yu stops talking.


    With a smile on his face, Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "Duke Qiao wants to discuss the marriage of his children. Just go."


    "Just a moment, please!"


    Qiao Xuan stood up and went to the backyard.

 Chapter 646

    Qiao Xuan returned to the backyard, and soon came to the yard where big and small Qiao lived. Immediately, Qiao Xuan said that Liu Bei himself came to the insurance media to propose, and finally said: "ZHUGE Liang didn''t come, but Zhang Fei is at the door. You can arrange a maid to have a sneak look. Seize the time. If you are not satisfied, I will make arrangements. Zhang Fei is very big in his black warrior suit, swallow chin and tiger beard. "


    Big Qiao and small Qiao look at each other, two people arranged a servant girl to inquire.


    Big Joe said: "father, how do you think about it?"


    Xiao Qiao quickly echoed and asked, "is my father satisfied with Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei?"


    "Not satisfied!"


    Qiao Xuan didn''t hide anything. He said his opinion directly and said: "Zhang Fei is black, strong and burly. He''s very rude. Another Zhuge Liang said that the military was too busy to come. If you don''t want to, why don''t you just stay in the barracks and get married? "


    When Big Joe heard this, he asked, "father, what if our two sisters are not satisfied?"


    Qiao Xuan said: "if you are not satisfied, I will try to get rid of it. But if you are satisfied, I have nothing to say. It''s you who get married. Although we all pay attention to parents'' orders and matchmaker''s words, I am not pedantic. As long as you are willing, I have no objection. "


    Father and daughter three people talk, time is not long, servant girl came back.


    The servant girl came back with a look of panic and said, "it''s frightening. The appearance of Zhang Fei is too frightening. Not only that, he was as black as charcoal, and his big eyes were even more frightening. Ugly. It''s so ugly. It''s even uglier than ah Chou in our family. "


    Ah Chou is a servant of your family.


    It''s ugly.


    After Big Joe and Little Joe heard it, they looked at each other, and their hearts were sharp, and they immediately made a decision.


    Big Joe said, "father, we don''t want to."


    Qiao Xuan stroked the beard under his jaw and said, "in that case, I''ll find a way."


    Big Joe said, "what can father do?"


    Qiao Xuan replied: "now in this city, it''s not only Liu Bei, but also Zhang Xiu. You Uncle Xu Jing are at home. He once met Zhang Xiu and said that she was handsome and extremely brave. And now, Zhang Xiu is only in her early twenties. Her age is worthy of you


    Xiao Qiao raised his eyebrows and said, "but I heard that Zhang Xiu has married Huang Yueying from Jingzhou."


    Qiao Xuan nodded and said, "Zhang Xiu does marry, but are you two willing to marry Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang?"


    Big Qiao and small Qiao smell speech, cold can''t help but hit shiver.


    They don''t want to.


    Think about Zhang Fei, who is so terrible. He is scared when he sees him.


    Qiao Xuan sighed and said: "now the situation, we can only take the second place, marry you two sisters to Zhang Xiu. Besides, how can we refuse? Only if you marry Zhang Xiu can you refuse Liu Bei. "


    "Ah


    Big Joe and Little Joe exclaimed, and the two sisters were very surprised.


    Two women serve a husband together.


    It''s weird.


    Qiao Xuan snorted and sighed: "ah, what, under the present situation, Zhang Xiu is willing to marry you. That''s an excellent situation. If you want to offend Liu Bei, you will understand that


    "To offend Liu Bei for the sake of two unknown women is not in line with the overall situation."


    "Even so, you must let Uncle Xu Jing beg for help. Not only that, I have to give a considerable dowry. If it''s not for you, why is it so? "


    "Now, without Zhang Xiu''s help, we can''t refuse Liu Bei."


    Qiao Xuan said: "otherwise, we refuse Liu Bei. Even if Liu Bei doesn''t do it now, he will go back and say anything. My Qiao family may be in danger of overturning."


    "Alas..."


    Big Qiao hears speech, can''t help but sigh.


    Xiao Qiao was a optimist, and said with a smile: "in fact, it''s nothing. In ancient times, there was a husband who was served by e Huang and nu Ying. My sister and I married Zhang Xiu, which had no influence. In a word, don''t marry someone like Zhang Fei. Besides, it''s good to marry my sister. "


    "You..."


    Big Joe glared at Little Joe.


    Qiao Xuan said: "today''s situation, can only think so first, whether Zhang Xiu is willing, that is still unknown."


    With that, Qiao Xuan left the yard and went to the yard where Xu Jing lived. As soon as he saw Xu Jing, Qiao Xuan quickly explained the whole story, and finally said, "dear brother, you must persuade Zhang Xiu to leave through the back door and go out of the city to Zhang Xiu''s barracks. I, Qiao Xuan, would like to marry two daughters to him and follow the example of e Huang and nu Ying. "


    Xu Jing said: "in fact, if you ask for help from Zhang Xiu, you can not marry your daughter."


    Qiao Xuan''s eyes narrowed and said, "I know what you mean. Now I can''t marry my daughter. But with the help of Zhang Xiu, I refuse Liu Bei. What if Liu Bei finds fault with me?"


    "Will Zhang Taiwei help me then?""Impossible!"


    "You can''t have something to do with Qiao''s family when you have light. Zhang Taiwei will help you. So even if Liu Bei gets angry, he doesn''t dare to take the Qiao family for granted. "


    Qiao Xuan continued: "moreover, after the news, who dares to marry big and small Qiao is equal to the enemy of Liu Bei? At that time, it''s not good for big and small Joe, and it''s not good for my Qiao family. "


    "If that''s the case, be decisive and turn to Zhang Xiu. I don''t believe it. After our marriage with Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei still dares to deal with my Qiao family. Of course, it depends on whether Zhang Xiu is willing. "


    "If Zhang Xiu refuses, she has no choice but to let big and small Qiao leave from the back door first. I''ll give my life to the Qiao family, and I won''t push my two daughters into the fire pit. "


    Qiao Xuan said: "my dear brother, you haven''t seen Zhang Fei. He is very vulgar. Although he is a strong general on the battlefield, I don''t want such a strong general. I''m not a vassal of one side. What do you want a tiger general to do? "


    Xu Jing said, "don''t worry, brother. I will do my best. If you delay for a while and give me half an hour, I will go and come back soon. "


    Qiao Xuan said, "hard work, good brother."


    Xu Jing laughed and said, "what''s the hard work? In fact, I think it''s a good idea to hand over the two nieces to Zhang Xiu. The general trend of Zhang embroidery has become, and it must be a powerful one. Even if big and small Qiao married Zhang Xiu as concubine, they were not wronged. You know, even Cao Sikong''s daughter is Zhang Xiu''s concubine. "


    Qiao Xuan said: "I hope it, I don''t ask them to be rich, just ask them to live happily, that''s enough! Isn''t that what parents ask for? "


    "That''s true!"


    Xu Jing stopped staying and left by the back door.


    Qiao Xuan didn''t go to the front hall for the time being, but he still procrastinated in the backyard. After all, Xu Jing went to invite Zhang xiulai, but he didn''t know how long it would take.


    Xu Jing rode away and ran all the way.


    A gust of embroidery, as if he went to the camp soon.


    Zhang Xiu''s camp is also in the city, not far from Qiao''s home. It didn''t take long for Xu Jing to come to the gate of Zhang Xiu''s barracks and report his name directly.


    Soon after, Xu Jing entered the camp and met Zhang Xiu in the army tent. He didn''t hide it. He opened his door to the mountain and said, "I''m entrusted by someone. Please help me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Mr. Xu, every time you come to me, you are asking for help. I hope you are here to help me. This time, we need soldiers to escort people? "


    Zhang Xiu was very surprised. Unexpectedly, she met Xu Jing again in Wan county.


    Moreover, Xu Jing came to help again.


    Xu Jing didn''t pay attention to Zhang Xiu''s jokes, saying: "this time, I''m not here to borrow soldiers. I''m entrusted by Qiao Xuan of Wan county."


    "Liu Bei personally went to Qiao''s house to protect the media for Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang, hoping to marry Qiao Xuan''s two daughters, Daqiao and Xiaoqiao. Qiao Xuan doesn''t want to. I happen to be friends with Qiao Xuan, so Qiao Xuan asks me to come and ask Zhang Taiwei to help and stop them. "


    Xu Jing said: "of course, Qiao Xuan also said that he would give his two daughters to Zhang Taiwei and marry them to Zhang Taiwei as concubines."


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, this time very surprised.


    Qiao Xuan!


    Big Joe and Little Joe!


    Anhui county!


    Before that, Zhang Xiu didn''t expect to have Qiao''s family in Wan county. After all, she was busy with military affairs all day. After Xu Jing mentioned it, he thought that Qiao''s family was also in Wan County, and big Qiao and small Qiao were also in Wan county.


    Xu Jing said, "it''s not worth offending Liu Bei for the sake of Qiao''s family. But Qiao Xuan is a famous man in Lujiang County. His two daughters are beautiful and gentle. I think this marriage is OK. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu stood up and gave orders directly.


    Xu Jing had a look of surprise on his face and said, "did Zhang Taiwei agree?"


    "I agreed to the marriage."


    There are contradictions between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, who are enemies. Now Liu Bei is a villain, and he can directly marry Daqiao and Xiaoqiao, Zhang Xiu will not refuse.


    Zhang Xiu is not too many.


    What''s more, Big Joe and Little Joe are beautiful women.

 Chapter 647

    In Qiao''s hall.


    Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei wait. Time flies by and a quarter of an hour slips away. Waiting for Liu Bei three, Liu Bei is the old God sitting at ease, there is no impatience.


    He has always been very patient in doing things, and it involves the marriage of Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang. He thinks the Qiao family should also discuss it carefully. After all, it''s the marriage of two daughters.


    However, Guan Yu was impatient. He stroked the long beard under his jaw and said in a deep voice: "brother, Qiao Xuan has been away for more than a quarter of an hour. But up to now, he hasn''t come back. What''s the matter with him? "


    After a pause, Guan Yu said: "a marriage, where to make so much trouble. If he is willing, he will say yes. If he doesn''t want to, hum, the Qiao family can be removed. Elder brother protects the media personally, Qiao Xuan is not willing to, really don''t understand, what is his plan


    Zhang Feimao is impetuous way: "big brother, should not be, Qiao Xuan does not look up to us?"


    "Don''t worry, don''t worry!"


    Liu Bei talks with a smile.


    When it comes to marriage, Liu Bei is also very patient. Anyway, he can run away. The monk can''t run to the temple.


    Everyone is here.


    Liu Bei waited patiently and said with a smile, "military advisers are very talented and extremely smart. I''m not saying that Qiao''s daughter can marry a military adviser. It''s a blessing she''s cultivated for eight generations. "


    "That''s it!"


    Guan Yu nodded with a smile.


    Now Guan Yu is very grateful to Zhuge Liang.


    It can be said that Guan Yu in the army, except for Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, the rest of the people do not care. He always does things according to his own ideas, regardless of other people''s opinions.


    Little by little, more than a quarter of an hour passed.


    Guan Yu''s patience has almost been worn away. He looked slightly angry and said in a deep voice: "brother, no one has come yet. Is there any problem? Old Qiao Xuan, could it be that we can''t be deceived? "


    "Somebody


    Guan Yu gave a direct order.


    The Qiao family''s attendants were outside the door all the time. Hearing Guan Yu''s call, they immediately went forward and bowed.


    Guan Yu ordered: "go to inform Qiao Xuan and let him come out immediately."


    "Here it is


    The servant got the order. He didn''t dare to delay, so he went to inform him in a hurry.


    After a while, the servant came back and said, "please wait for uncle Liu for another half an hour at most."


    "Go down!"


    Guan Yu said.


    After retiring, Guan Yu frowned and said, "brother, I think something is wrong. Qiao Xuan''s prevarication is probably not willing. He did it on purpose to wear away our patience. "


    Liu Bei''s eyes also passed a light, he does not think his third brother, not worthy of Qiao Xuan''s daughter. Not to mention that Zhuge Liang is not worthy of Qiao Xuan''s daughter.


    It''s a marriage made in heaven.


    This is what Liu Bei thinks.


    Liu Bei thought about it and said, "don''t worry. No matter what, I will persuade Qiao Xuan."


    After hearing the speech, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stopped talking.


    Little by little, half a quarter of an hour later.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Suddenly, a sound of footwork came from outside the hall, but Qiao Xuan came back. Qiao Xuan''s face had a faint smile. He strode in and sat down on the throne.


    Liu Bei can''t wait to ask: "Duke Qiao and his family have been discussing for a long time, but have the results?"


    Qiao Xuan frowned, sighed and said, "I''m really sorry."


    Liu Bei said: "how?"


    Qiao Xuan replied, "my two daughters are unwilling to get married."


    Liu Bei snorted and said in a deep voice: "the military adviser and my third brother are young talents. They are not willing to marry down. So, the two daughters of the Qiao family. What kind of person do you want to marry? "


    "It''s me, of course."


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the hall.


    After hearing this, Liu Bei''s face changed greatly.


    Guan Yu and Zhang Fei''s face also frowned, a look of hell.


    At the same time, both Guan Yu and Zhang Fei clenched their fists and flashed in their eyes. They hate Zhang Xiu to the bone. They want to scratch her skin and cramp her, and then kill her directly.


    Wearing a white robe, Zhang Xiu strides in. He was tall, with a smile on his lips, and a sharp and angular face.


    Qiao Xuan saw Zhang Xiu and his eyes brightened.


    Is this Zhang Xiu?


    Young!


    Junlang!


    More calm and extraordinary!


    There are many adjectives in Qiao Xuan''s heart. He looked at Zhang Xiu''s cheek carefully and was very satisfied with her face. He doesn''t have Xu Jing''s ability. He looks at people superficially. When he looks at Zhang Xiu''s face, it''s a very good one.


    That''s enough!


    Therefore, Qiao Xuan''s heart, with a word, is really my son-in-law also!Qiao Xuan was happy and said with a smile: "uncle Liu, these are the people my daughters like. That''s why they don''t want to get married. "


    Previously, Xu Jing returned.


    But Xu Jing is back door, directly met Qiao Xuan, said Zhang Xiu arrived at Qiao''s gate. Then Qiao Xuan came out of the backyard and ordered people to welcome Zhang Xiu into the hall.


    Liu Bei''s face was extremely embarrassed.


    You''ve been fooled!


    Just now Qiao Xuan left, it is clear that he deliberately delayed time, and then waited for Zhang Xiu to arrive.


    Liu Bei stood up and said, "Qiao Xuan, you are going too far. When you do this, it''s not me who suffer the loss, but your Qiao family, who have lost their reputation. "


    Zhang Xiu took over and said, "Liu Yuzhou, I''m confused. It''s too much for Qiao Gong to do. Could it be that as soon as you protect the media, Mr. Qiao must agree to let you be satisfied? Your standards are harsh. Liu Yuzhou, people are willing or not. I haven''t heard that you have to promise as soon as you protect the media. "


    Liu Bei knew that Zhang Xiu had come and could not get any benefits. He also knew that the marriage was completely scrapped, so he brushed his sleeves and said coldly, "second brother, third brother, let''s go."


    He was very angry and left directly.


    In the hall, soon there were only Qiao Xuan, Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue left. Qiao Xuan said with a smile, "it''s worthy of Zhang Taiwei. When you come, Liu Bei will leave. This time, thanks to Zhang Taiwei. "


    Zhang Xiu is very modest, said: "Qiao Gong can call me, I can express Jiangping."


    "Good, good!"


    Qiao Xuan smiles and is satisfied with Zhang Xiu''s attitude. You know, Zhang Xiu is a great Han''s Taiwei. She is powerful and powerful. She didn''t expect to be so humble.


    Qiao Xuan immediately arranged for the servant to invite Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.


    Soon, two figures entered from outside the hall.


    Big Joe and Little Joe.


    Both of them changed their clothes and dressed up beautifully. Big and small Qiao two sisters have their own characteristics, such as chunlanqiuju, each competing for beauty, let a person in front of a bright.


    Daqiao and Xiaoqiao enter and see the seated Zhang Xiu. Seeing her appearance, they think of her identity. In addition to the contrast with Zhang Fei, they are very happy for a moment.

 Chapter 648

    Big Qiao bowed and said, "I''m Qiao Ying. It''s big Qiao. I''ve seen Taiwei."


    Xiao Qiao leaned over and said, "I''m Qiao Shuang. It''s Xiao Qiao. I''ve seen Taiwei."


    The two sisters'' voices are soft and melodious, both of which are graceful, gentle and charming. They are very beautiful. These two people stand together, is a beautiful scenery.


    Zhang Xiu saluted one by one, neither humble nor overbearing.


    At this time, Qiao Xuan took the call and directly asked big Qiao and little Qiao to step down, instead of letting the two sisters stay. After waiting for the two girls to leave, Qiao Xuan said, "is Jiang Ping satisfied with my two daughters?"


    Zhang xiudao: "it can be a good match!"


    Good with two words, Qiao Xuan face showed a smile.


    Qiao Xuan said: "this marriage, led by Xu Jing, please ask Xu Jing to protect the media. However, Jiang Ping could not have stayed in Wan County for a long time because of the urgency and power, especially the frequent wars. So today I will prepare a dowry and marry my daughter to Jiang Ping. "


    Zhang xiudao: "yes."


    In fact, now that Zhang Xiu has a wife, the rest of the women are concubines. Even if there are other women, they will not be grand and grand. Zhang Xiu''s marriage to Daqiao and Xiaoqiao is just a formality.


    Qiao Xuan''s words changed, and he said: "speaking up, there is no prefect in Lujiang County today. Although there are officials, they all act on their own. Jiang Ping entered Lujiang County with Liu Biao. Is he planning to capture Lujiang County? "


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and replied, "I can''t control Lujiang County now. After all, my strength is beyond the reach of Guanzhong. "


    Qiao Xuan said, "speaking of Wan County, I have a gift from my family to Jiang Ping."


    Zhang xiudao: "what is it?"


    Qiao Xuan replied, "it''s a map of Wan county. It''s drawn by the Qiao family." Immediately, Qiao Xuan arranged for someone to go to the study and bring the map of Wan county to Zhang Xiu.


    After looking at it twice, Zhang Xiu said, "this map of Duke Qiao is worth ten thousand soldiers. With this map, the next war will be easy to handle. "


    Qiao Xuan stroked his beard with a smile.


    He immediately arranged for his servants to prepare a banquet for Zhang Xiu. At this time, Xu Jing, who lives in the backyard, also comes to the front yard for company. The three people drink and chat with each other, and their interest is quite high.


    In the evening, after the banquet, a servant led Zhang Xiu to the back yard.


    Zhang Xiu did not refuse.


    The next morning, when Zhang Xiu woke up, there were two white women lying beside him. They were big Qiao and small Qiao.


    Zhang Xiu thought of what happened last night and gave a smile.


    At first, it was big Joe.


    After all, Big Joe is a big girl with yellow flowers. It''s hard for her to be happy. In the end, even little Joe joined in and got a big quilt to sleep with.


    After Zhang Xiu wakes up, she puts on her coat and goes out of the room to do morning exercises in the yard.


    When Zhang Xiu just left, the two sisters opened their eyes at the same time, with a look of shame on their faces and a trace of unnaturalness. I had a good time last night.


    But now they all lie on the couch like this, with some restraint. After they put on their coats, they arranged for the maid to bring hot water for washing. When they came to the door, they were surprised to see Zhang Xiu who was doing morning exercises.


    Zhang Xiu''s morning exercise is very slow and looks rather gentle.


    Just like this, the more you show your skill.


    Speed up, everyone will.


    But it''s not easy to slow down the boxing, to be able to retract. He did morning exercises for nearly two quarters of an hour, and his whole body was full of Qi and blood. Even though the weather was cold, Zhang Xiu''s forehead was still sweating.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the two girls, she washed up and had breakfast with Daqiao and Xiaoqiao. Wang Yue rushed to report and said, "Lord, Liu Biao sent someone to inform us. Please go back and discuss the issue of sending troops."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    He went straight to see Qiao Xuan and said, "now Lujiang County is sure to start a war. My father-in-law is not safe in Lujiang, so I can move my family to Chang''an. There are many great Confucians in Chang''an City, and the father-in-law of Chang''an has people who talk about Taoism. The father-in-law is so knowledgeable that he can teach in academies and pass the time. "


    "I''ll arrange that. Today, I''ll move my family to Chang''an."


    Qiao Xuan did not hesitate and agreed directly.


    Now that his daughters are married to Zhang Xiu, he has nothing to do to stay in Lujiang County. Instead, it''s better to move his family to Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Jing and said, "when is Mr. Xu going to move to Chang''an?"


    Zhang Xiu is very grateful to Xu Jing.


    Because of Xu Jing, Zhang Xiu got Qiao''s family again, and took in big and small Qiao.


    Xu Jing said with a smile: "I have to return to Jiaozhi. After all, all my family members are in Jiaozhi. When all the things at Jiaozhi are properly arranged, it''s not too late to go to Chang''an. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m waiting for you."


    After that, Zhang Xiu leaves with big Qiao and small Qiao. He doesn''t plan to leave two girls in Qiao''s house. In case something happens to Qiao''s house, big and small Qiao will be in danger, which is not good for Zhang Xiu.Big and small Qiao enter the barracks with Zhang Xiu, while Qiao Xuan cleans up Qiao''s house and prepares to leave in the afternoon. After returning to the barracks, Zhang Xiu resettled big and small Qiao, changed his clothes, and went straight to Liu Biao''s camp.


    Liu Biao''s camp is not far away.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu entered the camp. With a glance, Liu Biao, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang and Gu Yong had all arrived, and everyone gathered.


    Zhang Xiu lifts her robe and takes a seat. Wang Yue stands behind Zhang Xiu, while Shi a and Deng Zhan are at the gate of the camp. The three men followed Zhang Xiu to protect her safety.


    Liu Biao looks at Zhang Xiu with a sneer in his heart.


    Liu Biao already knew about Qiao''s family yesterday. He did not expect that without any planning, Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei had a conflict. To some extent, it can be said that Zhang Xiu robbed Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang''s wife.


    Even if Qiao Xuan didn''t agree to this, big Qiao and small Qiao are not Zhang Fei''s and Zhuge Liang''s women. But such is the case with people. As long as Zhang Xiu does this and takes in big Qiao and small Qiao, it is tantamount to feuding with Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang and robbing women.


    Liu Biao is happy to see its success.


    The deeper the contradiction between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei, the more happy Liu Biao was. In this case, he can make full use of Liu Bei, and then deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, things will not be easy.


    Liu Biao took a deep breath and said, "now that all the people are here, I don''t have much time to delay. According to the latest news, sun CE is not far away from Wan county. Tomorrow at the latest, sun CE''s army will arrive in Wan county. "


    "Sun CE''s troops are quite elite, and he is not an easy man."


    "No matter my troops or Liu Yuzhou''s troops, although they are large in number, their combat effectiveness is actually limited. Therefore, I hope that Jiang Ping will lead the army as a forward force to meet sun CE first. "


    "Lao Fu and Liu Yuzhou led a large army and followed them closely as the rear army."


    Liu Biao said: "after the battle between Jiang Ping and sun CE, our troops will arrive one after another. At that time, all our forces will unite to defeat sun CE. Jiang Ping, this is my plan. What do you think? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "uncle, the forward army will be attacked fiercely when they fight with sun CE. The army under my command will bear all the forces of sun CE. I''m afraid that''s not right. "


    Liu Biao asked, "Jiang Ping, how do you think about it?"


    Liu Bei echoed: "Zhang Taiwei''s military edge is unmatched in sharpness. You are the best forward. I just don''t know how Zhang Taiwei would like to serve as a vanguard. "


    Liu Bei and Liu Biao both have plans in mind, and both want Zhang Xiu to send troops.


    Only when Zhang Xiu is the vanguard general, the army under Zhang Xiu must be the vanguard. And they have the chance to calculate Zhang Xiu. This is also the reason why Liu Biao and Liu Bei both make Zhang Xiu a forward.

 Chapter 649

    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "my uncle and Liu Yuzhou want me to be the leader of the vanguard army. But if we go to war, we will die. We may never come back


    "Especially sun CE, who is very powerful. As the saying goes, "if you work hard, you''ll lose three times and you''ll be exhausted. Sun CE''s army is flourishing. If you let me resist at this time, you''ll mean that I''ve shouldered all the attacks."


    "You''re in the back, and you don''t have to pay any price for your slow journey. I have to pay the biggest price, so to speak. If there is no considerable interest, why should I agree? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "especially though I help my uncle, I can''t let my soldiers die."


    This time, as a pioneer, Zhang Xiu knew that Liu Bei and Liu Biao must have calculated.


    In other words, this is yangmou.


    Let him resist sun CE and weaken him with the help of sun CE.


    When Liu Bei heard this, he didn''t say anything, because Zhang Xiu was looking for Liu Biao, not him.


    After pondering for a moment, Liu Biao said, "Jiang Ping, it''s strange to talk about this between you and me. At the beginning, when you were at war with Cao Cao, I also supported you with money, food and materials. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "uncle, one thing is one thing. I think it''s two different things and can''t be confused. "


    Liu Biao gritted his teeth and said, "if you defeat sun CE, after we win this battle, I can decide Lujiang County and give you half of the territory."


    "That''s not necessary."


    Zhang Xiu directly shook her head and refused.


    Liu Biao said, "what are your conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Gu Yong and said, "why don''t you lend Gu Yong to me for a few days. After sun CE is pacified, I will return Gu Yong to my uncle. "


    "No way!"


    Liu Biao didn''t even think about it and answered directly.


    Gu Yong is his most valued counselor and knows his plan to deal with Zhang Xiu. If Gu Yong, under the command of Zhang Xiu, suddenly says something against him, he will be quite dangerous.


    This is a risk Liu Biao is not willing to take.


    Zhang Xiu said: "uncle, is it really not OK?"


    Liu Biao''s eyes were firm and said flatly: "there is no room for negotiation. If you have any other conditions, just say so. But when it comes to Sir, that''s not going to work. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "in that case, give me another 3000 stone grain. Now my soldiers have to eat and drink to go to war. Another 3000 stone grain will help me encourage the soldiers. "


    "Yes!"


    Liu Biao didn''t even think about it. He said directly, "I''ll arrange it now and send it to your barracks immediately. Next, you immediately send troops to attack sun CE. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    He had a plan for the war, so he agreed.


    Liu Biao said: "time is pressing, Jiang Ping, take action."


    Zhang Xiu said: "when the grain is in place, I will send troops immediately. Goodbye, uncle. I''m going to mobilize the army


    After that, Zhang Xiu got up and left.


    When Zhang Xiu and Wang Yue left the camp, Zhuge Liang frowned and said, "Liu Jingzhou, just now, Zhang Xiu''s calculation has happened again. Zhang Xiuxian deliberately asked for Mr. Gu. After Liu Jingzhou refused, he changed another condition and you agreed directly. This time, he gave Zhang Xiu three thousand stone grain. In a short time, Zhang Xiu can get a lot of benefits now. "


    Liu Biao''s face was black, but he was confident. He brushed his sleeve and said, "it''s OK. As long as Zhang Xiu can send troops, why should he be stingy with 3000 stone grain?"


    After a pause, Liu Biao said: "for me, if I use three thousand stone grain, I can get Zhang Xiu to attack sun CE. It''s definitely worth it. I look forward to the final result and hope to win the first World War. "


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he thought, but he was worried.


    Because Zhang Xiu is very cunning.


    Liu Biao and Liu Bei let Zhang Xiu as a pioneer, the intention is quite obvious. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu can''t allow herself to be calculated, and is likely to make counter measures.


    However, Zhuge Liang did not come up with a result.


    All in all, just wait and see.


    Liu Biao immediately called wenpin and asked wenpin to allocate 3000 stone grain to Zhang Xiu.


    Three thousand stone grain is not a small amount, but such a batch of grain in Zhang Xiu''s army can''t lift the water, because the number of soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command is nearly 30000.


    With so many soldiers and so many horses, the daily consumption of food is countless.


    The cost is enormous.


    After all the grain was handed over, Zhang Xiu looked at Wen pin who had sent the grain and said with a smile, "general Wen, you know how to use troops. You are a brave general on the battlefield. If you follow Liu Biao, you are really casting pearls behind the scenes. "


    Wen pin''s expression was silent and said, "it''s my business. Don''t worry too much about it."


    "Goodbye!"


    Wenpin did not stay and turned to leave.Zhang Xiu looks at wenpin''s back and shakes her head. In the past, the Kuai family intended to persuade wenpin to follow Zhang Xiu, but wenpin refused.


    Even though Liu Biao was incompetent, wenpin still chose to be loyal to Cai Mao.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    The army under his command was ready and set out immediately.


    The army set out in a mighty way.


    Now the weather is in September. It''s cool and cool in autumn and the army is on their way. When Zhang Xiu''s army had gone for an hour and a half, the rear sentinel came back to report that Liu Biao and Liu Bei''s army had not yet started, and they were still in the county seat of Wan County, Lujiang River.


    Zhang Xiu got the news and sneered even more.


    Liu Biao and Liu Bei obviously wanted him to fight sun CE.


    Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu can''t make Liu Biao''s wish come true. All the way East, Zhang Xiu''s army did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and there were many flat areas, especially many ponds and lakes, with water networks all over the place.


    The speed of the March slowed down.


    In these places, cavalry is not easy to use. Zhang Xiu''s army drove eastward. After noon, when they went down to Shenshi, they found a place close to the water source and surrounded by open space.


    Zhang Xiu has found sun CE''s army.


    Now sun CE''s army is encamped six miles in front of Zhang Xiu. After all, the two sides are facing each other, so they meet in a short time. Sun CE''s troops were stationed all the time instead of attacking for the time being.


    After the troops were stationed, Zhang Xiu took a group of soldiers, escorted by Wang Yue, Shi a and others, and went straight to sun CE''s camp.


    Arriving outside sun CE''s camp, Zhang Xiu exclaimed, "where is sun CE?"


    Not long after, at the gate of sun CE''s camp, a fierce figure came out. It''s no one else. It''s sun CE. Today, sun CE is twenty-three or twenty-four years old, tall and very brave.


    Sun CE''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. In his eyes, there was also a light.


    No reason, he had the first impression, in front of is Zhang Xiu.


    Sun CE said: "but Taiwei Zhang Xiu!"


    "It''s someone!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    When sun CE got the news, he rode forward without fear. Sun CE himself is a tiger general. He can be invincible on the battlefield and keep fighting.


    When sun Zeya leads the soldiers out of the camp, Zhang Junxiu follows them.


    He took the soldiers and followed.


    With soldiers to protect sun CE''s safety, Zhou Yu could rest assured. After a while, sun CE stopped his horse when he was only ten steps away from Zhang Xiu.


    Sun CE''s eyes were sharp and said, "Zhang Xiu, I''ve heard that Liu Biao and Liu Bei are scheming against you to die as a pioneer. I didn''t expect you to come. It''s clever of you to listen to Liu Bei and Liu Biao as a Taiwei. "

 Chapter 650

    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh. From the beginning, his laughter was low, but gradually, it became high, and his voice seemed to soar into the sky, clearly spread to sun CE and the people around him.


    Sun CE frowned.


    What does Zhang Xiu mean?


    He burst into laughter.


    After a long time, Zhang Xiu stopped laughing, disdaining to say: "people say that in Jiangdong area, sun CE is impulsive and reckless. When we see him today, it''s better known than seen. Rumors should not be true. Unexpectedly, sun CE even knew how to stir up generals, and even stirred up dissension. This situation is really beyond my expectation. It seems that sun ce of Jiangdong is not only good at martial arts, but also good at mental planning. "


    Sun CE''s expression is a little strange.


    It''s always weird.


    Zhang Xiu''s words seem to praise him, but in fact, they are ironic, which sounds very uncomfortable.


    Sun CE snorted: "as far as I''m concerned, I don''t care what kind of stratagem it is, whether it''s provocation or provocation, as long as it''s useful. What''s more, what I''m expounding is a fact. Zhang Xiu, you are willing to be commanded by Liu Biao, but you are not obedient. What is that? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Sun CE, do you know that I came as a forward, how do you know I didn''t come on purpose?"


    "All back twenty steps!"


    Zhang said.


    Wang Yue, Shi a and others all stepped back by 20 steps, drawing a certain distance.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Sun CE and said, "Sun CE, let your people step back 20 steps. Because some words, they are not suitable to listen to. Once they hear it, it''s easy to affect your morale. "


    Sun CE narrowed his eyes and thought.


    Zhang Xiu, he did not dare to take it lightly, because he had several people lurking in Xiangyang, all died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. To some extent, sun CE and Zhang Xiu have a deep hatred.


    After thinking for a moment, sun CE waved his hand and asked Zhou Yu and others to step back 20 steps.


    Everybody back up, get out of the way.


    In the center, only Zhang Xiu and sun CE were left.


    Sun CE said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, you hold back. What do you have to say now?"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was calm, not impatient and said: "the reason why we want to hold back and let all the soldiers retreat is because I want to tell you a piece of news about Gu Yong."


    In sun CE''s eyes, there was a flash of consternation.


    Guyong!


    Gu Yong!


    This is the man he sent to Liu Biao''s side.


    Now Gu Yong has won the esteem of Liu Biao. Sun CE got the news from Xiangyang and the news about the fight between Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu. It was Gu Yong who sent it back.


    Just like this, sun cecai knew that Zhang Xiu had been calculated by Liu Bei and Liu Biao, and that Zhang Xiu was a vanguard.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I think it''s a little strange. I didn''t expect that Gu Yong of Wu County turned out to be Liu Biao''s confidant. It''s strange. "


    Sun CE pretended to be stupid and said, "I don''t understand what you mean."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Sun CE, don''t pretend you don''t know him. Now I have sent someone to take away Gu Yong''s family. Now the family of Guyong is in my hands. I''m afraid you haven''t got any news. You don''t know that Gu Yong''s family has disappeared in Wujun. "


    Brush!


    Sun CE''s face changed greatly.


    This time, sun CE couldn''t keep the eight winds still and was completely flustered. Because in today''s situation, Gu Yong is not only the key to the war, but also an important official he values.


    Once Gu Yong goes wrong, it will affect the overall situation.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "don''t worry, I haven''t exposed Gu Yong. I haven''t let Liu Biao know Gu Yong''s identity. Because today, it''s still useful to keep Gu Yong. "


    "What''s the use?" Sun CE asked


    He does not doubt the truth of Zhang Xiu''s words, because such things can be easily identified.


    Zhang Xiu said: "my request is very simple. You and I are stationed separately and do not attack each other. Next, you should dispatch the army, take the path to leave, go straight to the army of Liu Bei and Liu Biao in our rear, and attack them. As for the rest, I have no request. "


    Sun CE snorted and said, "Zhang Xiu, you let me make a detour to attack Liu Biao and Liu Bei. When we fight, you can directly kill me, or you can bring people to defeat me after I defeat Liu Biao and Liu Bei, right?"


    "Smart! Unfortunately, you guessed wrong


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "Sun CE, have you ever thought about it. You can leave some soldiers to hold me back. Then, Enron attacked Liu Biao and Liu Bei. Actually, I''m not going to deal with you. "


    Sun CE said, "what if I don''t?"


    Zhang Xiu shrugged, but said: "you have no choice. As long as you refuse, the safety of Gu Yong''s family will not be guaranteed. It can be said that the life and death of Gu Yong''s family is in your hands. What to do is up to you now. "


    Sun CE was a little confused for a moment.He didn''t know how to decide.


    In other words, he has no clear analysis, what to do next. At the beginning, he thought that he had the advantage, because Gu Yong was behind the scenes. He could stir up the relationship between Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei and Liu Biao, so as to gain the benefit of yesterday.


    Now it seems that Zhang Xiu has become the last mantis and has grasped his weakness.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the hesitant sun CE and continued: "I''ll give you some time to think about it. If tomorrow, you don''t send troops. First, I will announce Gu Yong''s identity; second, I will deal with Gu Yong''s family. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu turned around and left.


    When Zhang Xiu returns to the army, he gives an order to retreat and returns with Shi a, Wang Yue and others.


    Sun CE''s face was as deep as water, and he went back to the rear with a black face.


    Seeing this, Zhou Yu had a bad feeling in his heart. He immediately asked, "Bo Fu, what happened?" Although Zhou Yu was Sun CE''s subordinate, they were brothers and did not use the title of Lord.


    Sun CE took Zhou Yu and other generals back to the central army soon.


    Seeing this, Zhou Yu was even more worried. He said again, "what did Zhang Xiu say to make you look so dignified?"


    "Gu Yong is exposed!"


    Sun CE opened his mouth and said, "not only did Zhang Xiu know Gu Yong''s identity, but Zhang Xiu even arranged for people to go to Wujun and abducted Gu Yong''s family. Now Gu Yong''s family is in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Early in the morning, we arranged for someone to protect Gu Yong''s family. I didn''t expect to lose someone under my own eyes. "


    Brush!


    Zhou Yu''s face also changed slightly.


    Zhou Yu was responsible for the plan to deal with Jingzhou and even arranged for Gu Yong to go to Liu Biao''s side. He has always had great trust in Gu Yong''s ability.


    Unexpectedly, now Gu Yong is exposed, and Gu Yong''s family is also in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Gu Yong''s situation is rather bad.


    Sun CE clenched his fist, waved it fiercely in the air, and then said: "Zhang Xiu threatened Gu Yong''s life and his family. Let''s send soldiers to attack Liu Biao and Liu Bei by taking the path to his rear tomorrow."


    "The original meaning of Liu Biao and Liu Bei was to let Zhang Xiu be the vanguard and let us lose both sides. For us, Gu Yong''s presence can help Gu Yong come up with a plan to further increase the contradictions among Liu Bei, Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu, and promote the internal strife among the three parties. "


    "But up to now, neither I nor Liu Biao nor Liu Bei have succeeded in their respective plans. On the contrary, it is Zhang Xiu who has grasped the key of breaking the game, which makes me very helpless. "


    Sun CE looked rather decadent.


    Zhou Yu''s face was black and dignified for the first time.


    It''s tough!


    Today''s situation is very difficult to handle. After all, it involves the safety of Gu Yong and his family.

 Chapter 651

    Zhou Yu quickly turned his head and thought about the direction of the war.


    Gu Yong was highly valued by sun CE. In particular, Gu Yong was willing to risk his life and death and lurked in Xiangyang. He had already paid a lot. At this time, regardless of Gu Yong''s life, regardless of Gu Yong''s life or death, it is tantamount to abandoning Gu Yong.


    Sun cexun asked: "Gongjin, what can you do?"


    Zhou Yu tried to keep calm. After thinking about it, he said: "the current situation is to keep calm and think about what aspects Zhang Xiu will consider and how she may do it. Then, we can infer how Zhang Xiu will send troops. "


    Sun CE said, "think about it!"


    Zhou Yu quickly turned his mind and thought about the way to deal with it.


    Time goes by.


    Sun CE''s face was full of anxiety. He looked at Zhou Yu from time to time, waiting for him to analyze the situation. In fact, what he considered was limited. He could only rely on Zhou Yu.


    Nearly a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "in this battle, Zhang Xiu may have three intentions."


    Sun CE said, "what are the three aspects?"


    Zhou Yu replied, "first, deal with Liu Biao. With Zhang Xiu''s current strength, he is likely to want to annex Jingzhou. So I think he is likely to use our strength to deal with Liu Biao. Or, let''s kill Liu Biao and completely destroy his power. This is Zhang Xiu''s first intention. "


    Sun CE said, "what about the second one?"


    Zhou Yu replied, "second, we should deal with Liu Bei. There is hatred between Liu Yong and Gu Bei, which is also based on the news. Especially in Jingzhou, Liu Bei influenced Zhang Xiu to win Jingzhou. Therefore, if Zhang Xiu wants to deal with Liu Bei, we will attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao to help Zhang Xiu achieve this goal. "


    Sun CE said: "the third is us?"


    "Yes


    Zhou Yu nodded again and replied, "if our troops fight against Liu Biao and Liu Bei, each side will lose. Even if we destroy Liu Biao and others, our own strength will be weakened. At that time, Zhang Xiu can attack with us. This can achieve the goal of "three carves with one arrow."


    "Hiss!"


    Sun CE took a cool breath and said: "Zhang Xiu is really a crafty thief. Gu Yong sent back a letter saying that Zhang Xiu was extremely difficult to deal with and was not easy to deal with. Now, that''s true. "


    After a pause, sun CE said again, "we have analyzed the situation, but we have to break it. Otherwise, if we attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao directly, we will fall into Zhang Xiu''s calculation. If we don''t follow Zhang Xiu''s plan, Gu Yong will be in trouble. Gongjin, it''s a tough choice. "


    Zhou Yu continued to think and said, "Zhang Xiu''s current plan is Yang Mou. Because he has Gu Yong''s family in his hands, it is difficult for us to ignore Gu Yong''s life and death, and the safety of his family. We can only proceed according to Zhang Xiu''s plan, but now, I think we have three choices. "


    Sun CE leaned forward and asked, "what are the three choices? Please tell me."


    Zhou Yu said: "the best policy is to follow the trend and divide the army into two groups. One group of troops will stay and confront Zhang Xiu''s army and entangle Zhang Xiu. The other way is to take Liu Bei and Liu Biao. "


    After a pause, Zhou Yu continued: "of course, it''s up to Gu Yong to let Liu Biao take the initiative and give us the chance to defeat Liu Biao first and then Liu Bei. As long as we defeat Liu Biao and Liu Bei, we will have a chance to compete with Zhang Xiu. At that time, let Zhang Xiu hand over Gu Yong''s family. "


    Sun CE said: "this strategy is not easy to operate. It involves many details and is even more complicated. Such a thing is not easy to accomplish. "


    "Gongjin, what''s the best policy?"


    Sun CE asked again.


    Zhou Yu replied: "the best policy is to temporarily shelve the hatred with Liu Bei and Liu Biao and attack Zhang Xiu together. Of course, this involves the safety of Gu Yong''s family. Can only be first regardless of the safety of Gu Yong family members, go all out to win Zhang Xiu. In doing so, there is still a certain chance to turn the situation around. Finally, fight with Liu Bei and Liu Biao again. "


    "Not right!"


    Sun CE shook his head and replied, "our hatred against Zhang Xiu is not deep, but our hatred against Liu Biao is deep. In any case, I will not cooperate with Liu Biao. If I had a chance, I would like to kill Liu Biao. "


    Zhou Yu said: "the worst way is to unite with Zhang Xiu. Let go of the prejudices of both sides and negotiate with Zhang Xiu. We help him destroy Liu Bei and Liu Biao. He allows us to capture Lujiang River and release Gu Yong''s family


    "Will it work?"


    After hearing this, sun CE asked.


    At this time, sun CE''s heart was somewhat moved.


    If we can unite with Zhang Xiu, we can not only save Huiyong, but also capture Lujiang County, which is very beneficial to sun CE. As for Zhang Xiu and between, although some resentment, but at least, not and Liu Biao as deep hatred.


    Zhou Yu said: "whether it works or not, we need to talk again in front of Zhang Xiu."


    "Let''s go and see Zhang Xiu."


    Sun CE was a hot tempered man and made a decision immediately.The best policy is too difficult to plan. It is not easy to compete with Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu at the same time. But if they unite with Zhang Xiu, sun CE will be profitable and can solve Gu Yong''s problem.


    If Gu Yong''s family is safe and Gu Yong''s life and death are not affected, sun CE has more choices. But now, sun CE has no choice but to do so.


    Zhou Yu followed sun CE. They mobilized a few soldiers and rushed to Zhang Xiu''s camp. When sun CE arrived outside Zhang Xiu''s camp, after sun CE called for help, Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the camp.


    Zhang Xiu galloped forward, stopped ten steps away from sun CE, and said with a smile, "Sun CE, what''s the important thing for you to come here now? Or, you have another idea. "


    "Yes


    Sun CE said directly: "despite your previous arrangements, I suggest that we form an alliance and jointly attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao. Then, you release Gu Yong''s family and let me take Lujiang County. So, how about I wipe out Liu Bei and Liu Biao for you? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what if I don''t form an alliance? Even if I agree not to form an alliance, I have Gu Yong''s family in my hands, you must attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao, otherwise the safety of Gu Yong and his family will not be guaranteed. "


    Sun CE shook his head and said, "it''s too dangerous for me to act according to your plan."


    "Once you calculate, you will sweep the army of Liu Biao, Liu Bei and us, and I will lose more than I gain. I would rather abandon Gu Yong than attack Liu Biao and Liu Bei by taking a small path. "


    "The only thing I can accept and that is in your best interest is our alliance."


    Sun CE said: "I have put forward the plan. Zhang Xiu, what do you think?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Unexpectedly, sun CE made such a reply.


    This is a surprise to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhou Yu said in a timely manner: "Zhang Taiwei, with your present strength, even the whole Jingzhou can''t be swallowed for the time being. Why should you take charge of Lujiang County?"


    "If we unite to attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao and destroy these two armies, you can withdraw to Jingzhou, and then occupy Jingzhou openly. Why not?"


    "At that time, we can kill Liu Biao for you."


    "There is no master in Jingzhou. You are the master of Jingzhou."


    Zhou Yu said: "in the same way, Zhang Taiwei''s release of Gu Yong''s family also benefits our Jiangdong. It''s not happy for both sides to make their own profits and get their own benefits. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhou Yu and said, "this is Gong Jin''s plan. He threatened me to cooperate with you and attack Liu Biao and Liu Bei with the gesture of breaking the jar, right?"


    Zhou Yu said: "Zhang Taiwei''s praise is not worth mentioning. What''s more, it''s not difficult for Zhang Taiwei. It''s good for him. "


    He was sure that Zhang Xiu would weigh the pros and cons and choose a plan that was beneficial to both sides.

 Chapter 652

    Zhang Xiu''s heart is also calculating.


    He has his own ideas.


    Although Zhang Xiu also believed that Zhou Yu''s strategy was reasonable, and that the best way was to unite the two sides to defeat Liu Bei and Liu Biao.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t adopt Zhou Yu''s plan. What he wants to do is still follow his way. However, Zhang Xiu will adopt part of Zhou Yu''s plan and make appropriate adjustments.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I have no objection to the alliance between you and me. But you still have to go by yourself to attack Liu Biao and Liu Bei. I can''t go. "


    Sun CE''s face changed greatly.


    He said so much, is a waste of words, Zhang Xiu is still not willing to adopt their approach.


    However, Zhou Yu was more calm and restrained his boredom. He said, "what do you plan to do when you agree to form an alliance but don''t want to send troops?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you and I make an alliance, I will release one of Gu Yong''s sons as sincerity."


    "First, when you attacked Liu Bei and Liu Biao, let Gu Yong admonish Liu Biao and separate him from Liu Bei. Then you, sun CE''s army, lay in ambush somewhere and work hard to destroy Liu Biao''s army. "


    "Of course, you can also let Gu Yong say that there is my food and grass garrison somewhere in the rear. Let Liu Biao lead the troops, and Liu Biao will certainly go. If you ambush early, you can take Liu Biao by surprise and defeat him in one go. "


    "Second, after defeating Liu Biao or killing Liu Biao, you don''t have to clean up Liu Biao''s army. Take Gu Yong, then drive straight in and attack Liu Bei again. "


    "Once Liu Biao is defeated, Liu Bei will not be able to defend himself and will surely withdraw."


    "Third, if Liu Bei withdraws, you should take the troops and leave for a while to avoid thinking that I will attack you. When I get rid of Liu Biao''s soldiers, I will send someone to send out Gu Yong''s family. "


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "at the same time, I will withdraw from Lujiang County. Sun CE, are you willing to win? What''s more, I have already told you the detailed plan. If under such circumstances, you can''t easily destroy Liu Biao and defeat Liu Bei, it''s too disappointing. "


    After hearing this, sun CE''s face changed again and again.


    Such a plan has become a complete advantage for Zhang Xiu.


    According to sun CE''s and Zhou Yu''s plan, the two sides formed an alliance to jointly attack Liu Bei and Liu Biao. In today''s situation, the responsibility lies entirely with sun CE, and Zhang Xiu has no responsibility at all.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu has got rid of the attack on Liu Biao and no longer carries the reputation of dealing with his allies.


    It''s a slight change in the plan.


    Zhou Yu thought about Zhang Xiu''s plan, which was really feasible. He thought for a while and said in a deep voice, "but who can guarantee that if we attack Liu Bei, Zhang Taiwei will not attack our rear?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Gong Jin knows the contradiction between Liu Bei and me. If you want to weaken Liu Bei, why should I stop him? Under such a premise, I will not do things that are not worth the loss. It''s not good for me to keep Liu Bei''s strength. "


    Zhou Yu was silent.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I, Zhang Xiu, always treat people with sincerity. What I say will never go back."


    When Zhou Yu and sun CE looked at each other, Zhou Yu nodded.


    Sun CE said immediately: "Zhang Xiu, I hope it''s as you said. Tomorrow morning, I will send out my troops


    Zhang Xiu said, "you won''t regret it."


    "Goodbye!"


    Sun CE gave up his hand and rode away.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Sun CE''s back and shakes her head, showing a look of regret on her face.


    Sun CE promised to attack Liu Biao first, which can definitely succeed. When sun CE attacked Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu really considered that she would attack sun CE first and then Liu Bei.


    Finally, Zhang Xiu gave up the idea.


    It''s not unwillingness, but Zhang Xiu''s inside information is insufficient, unable to completely control Jingzhou. Even with the help of the aristocratic families in Jingzhou, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to control Jingzhou completely with the help of the aristocratic families.


    Otherwise, Jingzhou is not his Jingzhou.


    In particular, if Zhang Xiu defeated sun CE and greatly weakened sun CE''s strength, there would be no one in the South who could restrain Cao Cao. At that time, Cao Cao''s troops will continue to go south, which will give Cao Cao room to expand his strength.


    Sun CE in the south, can restrain Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao''s power can only be in the north of the Yangtze and Huaihe River, can not extend to the south of the Yangtze and Huaihe River. For the time being, Zhang CE''s stay is more conducive to the development of embroidery.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the barracks, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others were very happy.


    The plan to deal with Liu Biao has finally come to this stage.


    Jingzhou strategy is coming to an end.


    Sun CE and Zhou Yu withdrew with their soldiers. On the way, sun CE looked at Zhou Yu and said in a deep voice, "Gong Jin, do you think Zhang Xiu is trustworthy under the current situation?"


    The constant change of the plan eventually turns into something beneficial to Zhang Xiu. Sun CE''s heart is still a little worried.


    Zhou Yu said, "can bo Fu have another way?""No!"


    Sun CE didn''t even think about it. He shook his head and answered.


    Zhou Yu said, "I can''t help it. In the face of Zhang Xiu, our plans have been disrupted again and again. In particular, Gu Yong''s family members, as well as the leak of Gu Yong''s information, made mistakes in the plan. In today''s situation, we can only follow the trend. However, we have to make certain arrangements. "


    "What''s the arrangement?" Sun said


    Zhou Yu replied: "when we attack Liu Biao, we don''t have to worry about Zhang Xiu attacking the rear. But when we attack Liu Bei, we need to arrange General Huang Gai to ambush in our rear. Once Zhang Xiu''s army attacked, there would be people who would stop and delay. In this way, we can withdraw calmly. "


    Sun CE said: "in fact, I''m still worried about whether Zhang Xiu will stay in Lujiang County after destroying Liu Biao and defeating Liu Bei. What if Zhang Xiu doesn''t leave? "


    "Don''t worry about that."


    Zhou Yu looked confident and said, "after Liu Biao was killed, Jingzhou has no owner. There must be chaos inside Jingzhou. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu will not stay in Lujiang County, and will definitely return to Xiangyang to take charge of the overall situation. After all, Zhang Xiu mastered Jingzhou, but also to attack Jingzhou counties, in order to completely control the counties. Otherwise, it will be difficult for Zhang Xiu to succeed. "


    "That''s true!"


    After hearing this, sun CE nodded in agreement.


    They rode back to the barracks, quickly took out the map nearby, carefully looked at the map, and selected a place easy to ambush. Finally, sun CE said: "Gongjin, let Gu Yong cheat Liu Biao to send troops. How do you choose this stratagem? Is it true to adopt the scheme mentioned by Zhang Xiu? "


    "Yes


    Zhou Yu nodded and said, "in fact, Zhang Xiu''s plan is a good one. Only with such a plan can Liu Biao dispatch troops alone, otherwise, Liu Biao may call Liu Bei. With Liu Bei, it''s not so easy for us to get rid of Liu Biao. "


    "So it is


    Sun CE agreed with Zhou Yu''s analysis. He quickly picked up his pen and dipped it in ink. He wrote a letter and handed it to Zhou Yu for revision. After that, he called for a sentry and sent it out immediately.


    After all this, sun CE sighed: "this war is really worrying. In the past, it has never been the case with the people of Jiangdong counties. This time, too much trouble. "


    Zhou Yu said with a smile: "when you meet the strongest army, it should be like this. Zhang Xiu is not an easy person. "


    They chatted. Soon after, some soldiers reported that Zhang Xiu had sent Gu Yong''s son to the gate of the camp. Sun CE immediately arranged for people to take Gu Yong''s son to the camp.


    Seeing Gu Yong''s son, sun CE is relieved and returns with another son.

 Chapter 653

    Ten miles to the east of Wan County, the terrain here is open and open, and close to the water source.


    This is where Liu Bei and Liu Biao are stationed.


    Although Zhang Xiu was chosen as the vanguard and the two as the rear of the Chinese army, both Liu Biao and Liu Bei had already made up their minds to delay the dispatch of troops.


    Therefore, when Zhang Xiu and sun CE have confronted each other, they are still camping ten miles outside the city and have no idea of entering the army. Whether Liu Biao or Liu Bei, they are ready to hang Zhang embroidery.


    They should use sun CE''s power to weaken Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Liu Bei and Liu Biao are sitting opposite each other at the moment, chatting over wine.


    Liu Bei sipped a sip of wine and said slowly: "King Shenggong, about the battle between Zhang Xiu and sun CE in the front line. Recently, I have some new ideas. "


    Liu Biao said, "what do you think?"


    Liu Bei did not immediately answer, said: "Jing Sheng recognized that Zhang Xiu is a big threat to Jingzhou?"


    "Not much!"


    Liu Biao replied with a smile: "although there is a bad relationship between me and Jiang Ping, they are family after all. In front of me, Jiang Ping has to call me uncle. "


    "Ha..."


    Liu Bei sneered and said, "Jing Shenggong is deceiving himself. If you have a good relationship with Zhang Xiu, how can you weaken her strength? How can you distrust her? How can you keep dealing with her?"


    Liu Biao''s expression is slightly unnatural, but he also looks at Liu Bei in front of him.


    Today''s Liu Bei is slightly different.


    Even more sharp will show.


    Before that, Liu Bei was loyal, benevolent and righteous, and could be regarded as a model. However, today''s Liu Bei''s attitude towards people has obviously changed, pointing out the relationship between Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Biao said, "Xuande, what do you have to say?"


    Liu Bei replied: "Zhang Xiu is in Guanzhong and controls Nanyang County. It will be bad for you. Under this premise, it is a great danger to leave Zhang Xiu. "


    "In that case, why don''t you and I join hands to attack Zhang Xiu directly and destroy Zhang Xiu''s army after sun CE and Zhang Xiu''s strength are weakened? You know, last time, Zhang Xiu not only blocked our army, but also defeated the soldiers of you and me


    Liu Bei said: "if Zhang Xiu like this wants to attack Jingzhou, I''m afraid Jing Shenggong can''t stop it. In that case, why not take the initiative and join hands to eliminate this threat? "


    Liu Biao said: "in case, Zhang Xiu can not be killed completely, let Zhang Xiu escape?"


    Liu Bei looked confident and said: "even if we don''t deal with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will deal with Jingzhou. So whether Zhang Xiu escapes or not is meaningless. "


    "What we need to consider now is to use sun CE''s power to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength and destroy her in one go. We should not think about the consequences of Zhang Xiu''s escape, but we should think about it and strive to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "Without Zhang Xiu, there will be no threat to Jingzhou, and so will Yuzhou."


    "At that time, jingshenggong will be able to take back Nanyang County to the north of Xiangyang. Jingzhou, with Nanyang County in hand and jingshenggong, is as solid as gold. "


    Liu Bei''s words bewitched him and said, "otherwise, Xiangyang will be in danger without Nanyang County as the gateway."


    Liu Biao listened, his heart moved.


    In fact, earlier, Liu Biao wanted to deal with Zhang Xiu. Cai Kuai Mao and others have been affected by Cai''s pillow blowing, and Cai''s pillow blowing has also caused them to relax their vigilance.


    As a result, later Zhang Xiu became a big man, and Liu Biao couldn''t control her. Later, when Zhang Xiu''s strength reached the point where Liu Biao was afraid, Gu Yong was able to work.


    Liu Biao adopted Gu Yong''s strategy to weaken the power of the major families.


    Liu Bei said: "King Sheng Gong, when he is determined, he will be disturbed. If you don''t do it now, you will regret it in the end. Now is the only chance. If you miss it, Jingzhou will change its owner. "


    "OK, I agree."


    Liu Biao gritted his teeth and agreed directly.


    There was a light in his eyes, and he said, "we are waiting for the news from the front line now. When Zhang Xiu''s army is weakened, we will send troops immediately. "


    Liu Bei said: "King Shenggong is wise!"


    In today''s situation, Liu Bei needs the help of Liu Biao.


    Now, it''s done!


    Liu Bei and Liu Biao drink wine, they get along quite well, the conversation is also very warm.


    When Liu Biao and Liu Bei talked, Gu Yong lived in another camp. He was sitting in the camp, reading a book when he suddenly received a letter from his side.


    When sun CE sent someone to contact him, he could have sent the letter himself.


    Gu Yong took the letter and quickly browsed it. When he finished reading the letter, his face showed an unexpected look. Unexpectedly, sun CE wanted to bypass Zhang Xiu and attack Liu Biao directly. He also wanted him to persuade Liu Biao to lead his troops to the designated place.Gu Yong frowned.


    The original plan was to let him be around Liu Biao and influence him constantly, so as to make Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu fight against each other. In fact, Gu Yong did this all the time and achieved this goal.


    Both Liu Bei and Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu have their own contradictions.


    Now, we have to change our strategy.


    Gu Yong didn''t understand why Sun CE changed his plan. Not against Zhang Xiu, but against Liu Biao. He looked at the messenger and asked, "did the messenger say anything?"


    "No!"


    He shook his head and answered.


    Gu Yong frowned even more. Under the current situation, he didn''t understand, but when the order came, he had to carry out sun CE''s plan. He is at Liu Biao''s side. In all his actions, he must obey sun CE''s orders and cooperate with sun CE''s actions.


    Gu Yong took the torches, burned the letters he had sent, and waved his hand to let him go. Then Gu Yong stood up and went straight to Liu Biao''s army account.


    At this time, it was late at night.


    When Gu Yong arrived, Liu Bei had just left. And Liu Biao himself, also had six drunk, ready to rest.


    When Gu Yong saw Liu Biao, he said, "my Lord, this is in the military camp. Why did you drink so much wine? It''s obviously inappropriate to drink like this when marching and fighting. If you get drunk, it''s easy to delay a big event. "


    Liu Biao stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a smile, "what''s the big deal? Don''t worry, sir. Don''t worry. We don''t need to send troops now, so don''t worry, sir


    After a pause, Liu Biao continued: "just now, I had a drink negotiation with Liu Bei. Liu Bei proposed that he should unite with us to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "After the war between Zhang Xiu and sun CE, Zhang Xiu''s strength was weakened. I and Liu Bei sent troops to attack Zhang Xiu and strangle her in Lujiang County. "


    "As long as Zhang Xiu is dead, there will be chaos in Guanzhong."


    "If there is chaos in Guanzhong, I can send troops to take back Nanyang County. At that time, I Jingzhou up and down, will be solid. Those aristocratic families who do not obey the law will stop. "


    Liu Biao said: "they and Zhang Xiu have no interest disputes, they can only work for me."


    Gu Yong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Although he said that, Gu Yong shook his head in his heart. If Zhang Xiu was so stupid and allowed to calculate, it would not be Zhang Xiu. Even Gu Yong suspected that the sudden order of sun CE might have something to do with Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, sun CE would not change his plan and let him encourage Liu Biao to send troops alone so that sun CE could ambush Liu Biao.

 Chapter 654

    Gu Yong changed his words and said: "I think it''s no problem for me to attack Zhang Xiu jointly. But now, there is a better chance to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "What''s the chance?" Liu Biao asked


    Gu Yong replied: "I have received the news from the sentinel that Zhang Xiu is in front of me and has confronted sun CE. Strangely enough, all the grain of Zhang Xiu was hidden in a valley twelve miles southwest of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Humble speculation, Zhang Xiu all the food, transferred to the valley, leaving only a small part of the food in the army, most likely to be in preparation for retreat."


    "Zhang Xiu is not a fool. He can definitely calculate. We may calculate him."


    "So, he prepared early."


    Gu Yong suggested: "I think I can seize this batch of grain. The Lord himself led the army and went to the granary to control the grain quietly


    "In this way, when Zhang Xiu retreats, there will be no food. And we will unite with Liu Bei to attack Zhang Xiu. At that time, Zhang Xiu''s army is short of food and even more vulnerable. "


    Gu Yong gave suggestions.


    Liu Biao''s eyes brightened when he heard this, showing his approval.


    Good idea!


    That''s a good idea.


    But now Liu Biao is old. He said, "Sir, I''m old enough to go in person."


    Gu Yong said, "my Lord, I have considered this matter in my humble position. You know the elite of Zhang Xiu''s army. Even if Zhang Xiu does not have many soldiers in the granary, it is not easy to break through. "


    "If we want to win, we must do our best, or we will not succeed."


    "If the Lord and a few soldiers are left in the barracks, what if Liu Bei says something evil? If you know people, face and heart, you have to be on guard. After all, with enough interests, everyone may take risks. "


    This time, Gu Yong had to ask Liu Biao to send troops.


    Liu Biao stroked his beard and nodded. Although Liu Bei and Liu Bei are united in heart, they can also be on guard.


    Gu Yong continued to bewitch: "of course, my Lord is really not willing. You can ask Liu Bei to send troops together to seize the grain. It''s just that we have to take Liu Bei with us when it''s clear that we can take our own grain. It''s cheaper for Liu Bei. "


    Liu Biao said: "but when our army is out, Liu Bei is likely to get the news."


    "It doesn''t matter!"


    Gu Yong said with a smile: "our camp is not next to Liu Bei. We are several miles away. What''s more, the camp is wide and long, and the place is far away. We left a few soldiers to patrol and watch the night, and all the rest of the army left the rear camp and left overnight. "


    "By tomorrow morning, when Liu Bei found out, we were all close to the front line and even took Zhang Xiu''s granary. At that time, we will control the granary first. Even if Liu Bei comes, we can only watch. "


    "In this way, we will hold Zhang Xiu''s throat. It''s easier to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Gu Yong said: "when we attack Zhang Xiu with Liu Bei, we will win a great victory."


    "Wonderful, wonderful! How wonderful


    Liu Biao is looking forward to the winning scene, and his face is full of expectation.


    He lost several times to Zhang Xiu and suffered several times. In front of Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t get any good. At this time, Liu Biao was very happy to hear Gu Yong''s words.


    For a moment, the blood was boiling.


    Liu Biao immediately called wenpin and gave the order to send troops.


    Wenpin was puzzled and didn''t understand why he had to send troops all night. When he asked Liu Biao, he got a reply from Liu Biao, but asked him to carry out the task directly without asking more.


    Wenpin has no choice but to carry out the task.


    Liu Biao mobilized nearly 30000 troops and quietly left the rear camp. Although he left, he left more than 1000 soldiers in the camp. The patrol and defense of the whole camp showed no sign of leaving.


    It''s past midnight.


    Fortunately, in the evening of September, the starry sky is bright, the full moon is high, the bright moonlight is falling down, and the night is not too deep. Even if there is no torch, you can still go on your way.


    Soldiers in the army, fast forward.


    The whole evening, the army did not stop, has been moving on.


    As dawn approached, the sky began to brighten.


    At this time, a sentinel quickly ran back from the front and came to wenpin''s side, reporting: "general Wen, three miles in front of us is a gourd valley. We are in the broadest position of hulugu valley. If we go inside, the road will become narrower and narrower. The narrowest part can only accommodate three people. The road is more than ten miles away. "


    After Wen pin heard this, he immediately raised his heart and asked, "is there any sign of ambush in hulugu Valley ahead?"


    "I can''t see it!"


    The sentry shook his head and answered directly.


    After Wen pin heard this, he was still worried on his rough cheek. After all, hulugu in front is very easy to encounter ambush. In such hulugu, when it is ambushed, it is naturally at a disadvantage.Wenpin ordered to slow down the speed of the road, and galloped forward quickly. After entering hulugu Valley, he carefully examined the topography inside. The stone walls on both sides of hulugu valley are steep and rugged, with a height of 34 Zhang. On the slope are woods.


    It''s hard to escape from ambush in such a place.


    Wen pin was very worried. He quickly turned around his horse and withdrew the rear army. He came to Liu Biao and reported: "Lord, the terrain ahead is hulugu Valley, which is very likely to be ambushed. I don''t think it''s possible for me to stop for a while and go there after careful inquiry. Or, take the path, take the rest of the way, and go around the road. "


    "No need!"


    Liu Biao is very confident, big sleeve a brush way: "today''s situation, do not need to consider ambush.". Because we sent troops on a temporary basis, no one knew that we were going to pass here. Under such circumstances, who will ambush us? Wenpin, you worry too much. Don''t worry, just go straight on the way. "


    Wenpin worried: "Lord..."


    He also wanted to persuade, but as soon as the words came out, Liu Biao interrupted: "don''t say any more, you can lead the troops directly. I have already said that there can be no ambush. This time, it must be extremely safe. "


    Wen pin sighed in his heart.


    What is security.


    How can the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers in such a large army be perfunctory with the assurance of safety.


    However, wenpin has no way to stop it.


    Wen pin sighed, arched his hand and ordered the soldiers to continue on their way.


    The mighty army entered the hulugu valley. At the beginning, the entrance of hulugu was more than 20 feet wide, which could accommodate countless soldiers on their way side by side.


    After entering, the distance shortens a little bit.


    From 20 Zhang to 18 Zhang, gradually to 15 Zhang, to the middle position, it was less than 10 Zhang.


    Liu Biao was complacent and rode on his horse without any worries.


    He looked at wenpin not far away and joked: "wenpin, you just like to worry about things. You see, we''re here, and we haven''t been ambushed yet. You just think too much. "


    Wenpin smiles and doesn''t answer. When it comes to such things, he really doesn''t want to talk to Liu Biao. Because once the argument, Liu Biao will forcibly interrupt him.


    Gu Yong followed Liu Biao, and when he saw this behind the scenes, he was amazed. Wenpin is worthy of Jingzhou''s general, quite keen, even suspect hulugu ambush.


    It''s not easy.


    Wenpin has the ability to anticipate the enemy and take the lead.


    Gu Yong didn''t speak from the beginning to the end, and he was surrounded by relatives to protect his safety.

 Chapter 655

    On the valley of hulugu Valley, in the dense forest, there is an army ambushing here.


    It was Sun CE''s army that lay in ambush.


    Sun CE adopted Zhang Xiu''s suggestion, took advantage of Gu Yong''s identity, transferred Liu Biao''s army out, and then prepared to ambush in hulugu. As a matter of fact, the so-called granary hoarding point is nothing. It was made up by Gu Yong.


    Its purpose is in hulugu.


    This is the place where sun CE laid an ambush. Sun CE laid an ambush here and could ambush easily. If we fight head-on, Liu Biao has 30000 elite, so it is not easy to annihilate them all. Moreover, even if they are annihilated, sun CE''s forces will lose a lot.


    This is what sun CE does not want.


    At the moment, sun CE is lurking in the forest. He stares at Jingzhou soldiers passing by the narrow road of hulugu valley. He smiles and looks forward to it. He says: "Gongjin, I have to say that Zhang Xiu is really cunning. He even used our strength to deal with Liu Biao. Especially the other one, it''s really ingenious. This time, we can wipe out Liu Biao without much effort. "


    Zhou Yu said: "so Zhang Xiu is not simple, but also terrible."


    "Rustle!"


    At this time, a sound of footwork came.


    A soldier came to sun CE''s side and reported: "my Lord, Liu Biao''s former army has reached the exit of Hulukou."


    Sun CE ordered: "summon, attack!"


    "Woo! Woo


    All of a sudden, the sound of a long horn sounded in the mountain forest at the mouth of the gourd. The voice was loud and reverberated in hulugu Valley for a long time. It was also the first time that the voice came to wenpin''s ears.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Wenpin roared and looked anxious. He looked at Liu Biao and said, "Lord, there is a horn on the mountain. There must be an ambush. Retreat. We''ll retreat from the rear at once. "


    Liu Biao''s face changed slightly when he heard the horn.


    "Boom!"


    Then, at the exit of hulugu, there was a rumbling sound. Big rocks rolled down from the top of the mountain and fell down quickly. Originally, the exit of hulugu only allowed three people to pass side by side, not even one foot wide.


    A moment later, the exit of hulugu was blocked, and there was no possibility of passing.


    Liu Biao returned to his senses and asked, "how could it be possible, how could it be ambushed?"


    He looked around, and suddenly, he didn''t see Gu Yong. Gu Yong has been following him since he left the barracks and along the way, but no one has been found.


    "Gu Yong, where is Gu Yong?"


    When Liu Biao asked aloud, a possibility suddenly appeared in his heart.


    Maybe Gu Yong betrayed.


    Wenpin replied: "Lord, after entering hulugu Valley, Gu Yong said he would go to Xiaoxie, and then he went there and never came back. Gu Yong has never been seen in this gourd valley. "


    Liu Biao''s expression darkened.


    Damn it!


    Damn Gu Yong.


    It must be Gu Yong who defected and deliberately deceived him into coming to hulugu. Liu Biao looked at Wen pin and asked, "Wen pin, what do you say to do now? What should we do now? "


    At this moment, Liu Biao was in a panic.


    If the current predicament is not solved, he is likely to die here.


    "Withdraw, withdraw at once!"


    Wenpin replied again.


    Earlier, he had said it again. Now Liu Biao asks, wenpin answers again. Wenpin stood beside Liu Biao and said, "Lord, retreat quickly. If you don''t retreat again, it will be too late."


    "Withdraw!"


    Liu Biao gave the order.


    With Liu Biao''s command, his soldiers kept retreating.


    At this time, but see the sky, all of a sudden, a pottery pot fly out, quickly fell on the ground of the canyon.


    Click!!!


    When the earthenware pot falls to the ground, under the impact of force, it immediately breaks up. The muddy fire oil flows out of the pottery pot and soaks the ground. Now it''s September. Many weeds in the Canyon have dried up, which are very easy to ignite.


    Seeing the earthenware pot, Wen pin knew the other party''s next plan. He was even more frightened and said in a loud voice: "Lord, it''s not good. The other party will attack by fire. Retreat quickly!"


    "Chaka! Click


    One voice after another, constantly sounded.


    More and more pots fall on the ground, making the fire oil spill all over the ground.


    "Let go of the rocket!"


    On the hillside, an order came out, a rocket flew out on the hillside. As a rocket flies out, there are rockets flying over the official road stretching for several miles and then landing on the ground.


    Hoo!!


    The burning bow and arrow fell to the ground.


    At that time, the fire oil was ignited, and the burning flame, like a fire snake, spread quickly and continued to spread around. When such a fire burns, there are billows of smoke rising. There is smoke choking at the bottom of the canyon, and the fire consumes air, which makes many soldiers keep running forward to avoid suffocation.Wenpin protects Liu Biao and retreats quickly. When he looked back, he saw a fierce fire snake burning on the canyon road behind him, and many soldiers were struggling in the sea of fire.


    Tragic!


    Liu Biao''s 30000 troops are in dire straits.


    Rao is so. Liu Biao''s soldiers are rushing forward quickly, hoping to retreat to a wide position in the rear. Because at the entrance of hulugu, it is more than 20 feet wide.


    One width for soldiers to evacuate.


    But the fire is still burning at the entrance. If everyone wants to retreat, they have to cross the sea of fire to get to the real entrance of hulugu Valley and get rid of the fire.


    But when Liu Biao, Wen pin and some soldiers came out of this area, their faces turned black.


    Outside hulugu, there is an army formation.


    Soldiers with shields stood on the ground. Behind the shield soldiers were soldiers with long guns. The shield soldiers and long spearmen formed a solid wall and blocked Liu Biao''s retreat.


    "Kill me!"


    Liu Biao''s face was dirty. He gave the order out loud.


    Soldiers under the command, rush forward quickly.


    They have no choice but to go forward. Because once you stay, you will be attacked by the fire in the rear. After all, the fire in the rear is burning, and there are weeds in it. The soldiers who fall behind can only be reduced to firemen.


    Fortunately, outside the outlet of hulugu, the weeds on the outermost ground have been eradicated. In this case, the fire can not spread out, can only be burned in hulugu.


    The soldier rushed forward, and as soon as he reached the shield soldier, he was stabbed with a long gun.


    Just listen to the sound of puffing and puffing.


    A corpse, to the end.


    One by one, the soldiers kept falling to the ground.


    Blood splashed out from the body of Jingzhou soldiers and dyed the ground red. Even so, Liu Biao is still constantly ordering the soldiers to rush forward.


    Under the rush of the dense soldiers, that is to say, the formation of long spearmen can resist. But as more and more people rushed out, the formation of the lance soldiers retreated slightly and opened up a little distance.


    However, there are still countless casualties.


    No one can rush out.


    Countless people died under the gun.


    In the same way, countless soldiers remained in the sea of fire and could no longer rush out.


    As the killing continued, Gu Yong had retreated to the rear and joined sun CE. After seeing sun CE, he bowed his hand and asked, "my Lord, the plan that Ming Ming made at the beginning is to stir up internal strife among Liu Biao, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu."


    "Now the plan is going on, and even Liu Biao and Liu Bei are united to attack Zhang Xiu. At this time, why did you suddenly order me to calculate Liu Biao? "


    Gu Yong asked, "what happened in this


    "Alas..."


    Sun CE sighed and looked helpless.


    He turned to look at Zhou Yu and asked him to talk about Gu Yong.


    Zhou Yu sighed: "Yuantan, you are exposed. Early, Zhang Xiu knew your identity. Not only that, but also your family members are in the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    Yuan Tan is Gu Yong''s character.


    As soon as Gu Yong heard Zhou Yu''s words, his face changed greatly and he could no longer keep calm.

 Chapter 656

    Zhou Yu continued: "we confronted Zhang Xiu at the front line. Zhang Xiu told us your identity. For your safety, for the safety of your family, Bo Fu can only adopt Zhang Xiu''s plan and personally lead the troops to deal with Liu Biao. "


    After a pause, Zhou Yu said again: "in fact, hulugu''s ambush of Liu Biao is not our early plan. It''s Zhang Xiu''s policy. We just carry it out. Now, Zhang Xiu has returned your son. Next, after we finish the plan and task, Zhang Xiu will hand over the rest of your family. "


    Plop!


    Gu Yong knelt directly on the ground.


    He kowtowed his head to the ground and solemnly said: "because of the humble family members, the plan of the Lord has changed. The crime of humble duty is very serious."


    At this moment, Gu Yong, though kneeling on the ground to plead guilty, is grateful to sun CE in his heart. Because of sun CE''s adjustment, his family was safe. People are selfish and want their families to be healthy. Gu Yong is no exception.


    Sun CE picked up Gu Yong and said, "what''s the crime of Yuantan? To say I''m sorry, it''s me. Because I sent you to Xiangyang to carry out the task, it led to your family in trouble. "


    Gu Yong stood aside and stopped talking.


    His eyes, looking to the front of the battlefield, waiting for the war to continue.


    The fire is still burning.


    The shouting is still going on.


    The casualties of Liu Biao''s soldiers are still increasing. In such a situation, Liu Biao''s troops were rapidly consumed, and the loss of troops was increasing.


    But no matter what, Liu Biao couldn''t escape. He was always trapped at the entrance of hulugu valley. Even if there was no fire here, his soldiers could not rush out.


    Gu Yong said: "Lord, the general wenpin under Liu Biao is quite extraordinary. Prior to entering the gourd Valley, wenpin once talked to persuade Liu Biao to change his way. If Liu Biao trusts wenpin and changes his way, this ambush will fail. It is suggested that wenpin should be captured alive and demoted. "


    Sun CE was surprised and asked, "wenpin really found the ambush?"


    "No!"


    Gu Yong shook his head and replied, "wenpin didn''t find our ambush, but he thinks hulugu is likely to be ambushed. However, Liu Biao did not believe wenpin''s intuition. "


    Sun CE nodded and said, "such people are really not simple, but can be recruited."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a sentinel came.


    "The cavalry, Zhang Xiu''s army, is coming towards hulugu valley. It''s half an hour away from hulugu Valley," the sentinel reported


    Sun CE said with a sneer, "he came quickly."


    Zhou Yu suddenly said, "Lord, I suggest not to kill Liu Biao."


    "Ah


    When sun CE heard this, he exclaimed.


    You know, Huang Zu, the general under Liu Biao, shot Sun Jian in Jiangxia. It can be said that Liu Biao had a grudge against sun CE for killing his father. Under this premise, sun CE would like to kill Liu Biao.


    Sun CE said in a deep voice, "Gongjin, what''s your plan? Why don''t you suggest that I don''t kill Liu Biao? "


    Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Zhang Xiu has been paying attention to the war in hulugu valley. Now that he leads his troops to hulugu Valley, he must depend on the fighting."


    "In fact, Zhang Xiu once said that we should kill Liu Biao. But once we kill Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to bear the responsibility of killing Liu Biao. She can completely blame us. "


    "When Zhang Xiu returns to Jingzhou, he can take revenge for Liu Biao and straighten Jingzhou on a large scale. In this way, you will bear all the hatred, Jingzhou all think you killed Liu Biao


    Zhou Yu said: "in fact, the person who calculated Liu Biao this time is Zhang Xiu. He is the culprit behind the scenes. We don''t kill Liu Biao. After the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s army, Zhang Xiu can''t just sit back and watch. "


    "In order to capture Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu can''t leave Liu Biao''s life. She will also kill Liu Biao."


    "So I think, don''t kill Liu Biao."


    Zhou Yu suggested: "when Zhang Xiu''s army approaches, we will withdraw immediately."


    Sun CE''s expression changed again and again.


    Let him not kill Liu Biao, his heart will have a pimple. He wanted to avenge himself, to be ashamed of his father.


    Zhou Yu continued: "if you want to achieve great things, you can''t rely on courage alone. You must have wisdom. Even, you can''t do what you want. You want Zhang Xiu, not so easy to capture Jingzhou, can only give Liu Biao to Zhang Xiu, let Zhang Xiu to kill Liu Biao. Otherwise, it''s not good for us. "


    "Hoo!"


    Sun cechang let out a breath.


    It is not an easy decision for him to give up killing Liu Biao. Over the years, one of the courage to support Sun CE''s campaign is to avenge his father. He is not willing to let his father die unknown, not willing to let the enemy go unpunished, to avenge his father.


    "Well, don''t kill Liu Biao."


    Sun CE clenched his teeth and answered directly.


    After hearing this, Zhou Yu had a bright smile on Junyi''s face and said, "Bo Fu, you are mature."Sun CE shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiu is about to arrive at hulugu. Now, we can''t delay any longer. It''s time to do it. Take wenpin first, then retreat directly. "


    Gu Yong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Immediately, sun CE led people down the mountain to the front of the army. At this time, sun CE turned his eyes and saw wenpin, the commander of the army, who was also fighting in person.


    Under the leadership of Wen pin, Liu Biao''s army can continue to sprint, intending to fight out of the battlefield.


    Sun CE rushed out with a sword in his hand. The sword in his hand is called Guding Dao. It was once used by Sun Jian with sharp blade.


    When sun CE appeared, Liu Biao glared.


    He knows sun CE.


    When Sun Jian was killed, his body was left in Jiangxia county. Sun CE and Sun Quan came to welcome back Sun Jian''s body. Now seeing sun ce again, he knows that he is from Jiangdong.


    It was Sun CE who calculated him!


    Gu Yong is also from Jiangdong.


    When Liu Biao saw sun CE, he kept ordering his soldiers to come forward to encircle and kill him. But these people were killed before they got close to sun CE.


    On the contrary, it was Sun CE, who had a strong fighting capacity. In a short time, he killed Wen pin. At this time, wenpin, because of the long fighting time, great physical consumption and a lot of weakened strength, fought with sun CE, and his weapons were knocked out.


    Wenpin himself was also defeated.


    "Take it!"


    Sun CE ordered the soldiers to take wenpin and then lead them to fight quickly.


    The soldiers under Liu Biao''s command lost more and more because of continuous killing. Originally, Liu Biao''s 30000 elite soldiers, the vast majority of them, have been trapped in the sea of fire, completely become a fireman, have been buried in the sea of fire.


    The soldiers killed by Liu Biao kept rushing forward, causing countless casualties. Now, sun CE has been fighting for a while. One by one, he can''t resist. There are soldiers who surrender.


    More and more soldiers, kneeling to surrender.


    No one dares to resist.


    In fact, under the present situation, it can not be stopped at all. There is no other way but to surrender. Otherwise, there is only one way to be killed. In a short period of time, only Liu Biao and more than 100 bodyguards around him resisted, and there were no more people to resist.


    It''s over!


    Liu Biao''s heart sank.


    He knew that sun CE was a man who wanted to take revenge and kill him. Now in sun CE''s hands, he will surely die.


    "Withdraw!"


    At this time, sun made an order to withdraw. With this order, sun CE''s army retreated like a tide and never stayed in hulugu.


    This scene, let Liu Biao stare big eyes.


    What''s going on?


    Sun CE left and didn''t kill him.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Liu Biao couldn''t understand, but he stroked his beard and laughed, his face full of joy.


    Back!


    Sun CE even retreated. The sky is endless. I''m Liu Biao!


    Liu Biao''s heart is full of joy. He felt that he was blessed. Even though he was in danger, sun CE didn''t dare to kill him, so he retreated directly.

 Chapter 657

    "Sons and daughters, sun CE has gone, sun CE has withdrawn."


    Liu Biao yelled loudly. His old face was filled with a bright smile, which made him very happy. Because in today''s situation, sun CE''s departure, no one has to die, can go back safely.


    All the soldiers in the army cheered.


    Liu Biao and his soldiers walked on for a hundred feet before stopping to rest. He looked back, and his eyes fell on the gourd valley. At the moment, the fire was still burning in the gourd Valley, and there was still a scream.


    Many people died in the sea of fire. At this time, few soldiers ran out of the fire. Because most of the soldiers have died in hulugu.


    Liu Biao looked around at the soldiers under his command. They were dirty. Many of them were injured, their eyebrows and beards were gone, and some of them even burned a lot of hair.


    Liu Biao first congratulated himself for escaping from his birthday, but after that, he was sorry.


    Wenpin was arrested.


    The army is over!


    There are less than 800 soldiers left. Besides, all the 800 soldiers, except his own guards, surrendered before. It can be said that they betrayed Liu Biao.


    But Liu Biao couldn''t deal with these soldiers. He had to rely on these soldiers to escort him back to Jingzhou.


    When Liu Biao had a rest, he was puzzled.


    Why did sun CE retreat?


    It is clear that under the circumstances just now, sun CE can kill him and then leave calmly. But in the end, sun CE left. It was strange and shocking.


    Liu Biao doesn''t think that sun CE is a person who repays his grievances with good deeds, and he doesn''t think that sun CE has any good intentions.


    "Da! "Da!"


    All of a sudden, the sound of horse''s hooves came from not far away.


    The mighty sound of horse''s hooves swept the earth. Now it''s already sunny. If you look at it, you can see a black line creeping in the distance, and there''s smoke everywhere to block out the sun.


    "Watch out!"


    Liu Biao immediately gave the order.


    With the issuance of this order, only a few more than 800 soldiers were left. All of them gathered their spirits and surrounded Liu Biao to protect his safety.


    The time was late, the time was fast, and the horses galloped down to a hundred paces.


    "It''s Zhang Taixiu''s army."


    "Reinforcements are here. Our reinforcements are here. It''s Zhang Taiwei''s army."


    "We''re safe."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, Liu Biao''s soldiers found that Zhang Xiu''s army was coming, and they were all talking about it. The look on the faces of the soldiers was even more joyful, and they thought it was safe.


    Liu Biao''s heart sank.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu.


    That''s not good news.


    Want to know Zhang Xiu and his Liu Biao, have hatred. In particular, he and Liu Bei intend to calculate Zhang Xiu, such a trick, Zhang Xiu is likely to know.


    "Herod!"


    The horses snorted and hissed, and finally stopped outside hulugu valley.


    A war horse, mighty and majestic.


    One by one, the soldiers straddling on the horses were high spirited, arrogant and arrogant, and they were willing to kill Liu Biao.


    Huang Zhong straddled on the horse, his eyes fell on Liu Biao. Looking at Liu Biao''s dirty look and the frightened look on his old face, Huang Zhong despised him.


    I have no ability, but I have to toss blindly.


    If Liu Biao had known his prime minister and handed over military power himself, the result would not have been like this.


    After the cavalry arrived, Zhang Xiu followed. Huang Zhong looked at Zhang Xiu and said: "Lord, although sun CE said to withdraw. But he didn''t kill Liu Biao, leaving hundreds of Liu Biao''s soldiers behind. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows, revealing a touch of surprise.


    Because sun CE ambushed Liu Biao in hulugu valley. Under the current situation, he could kill Liu Biao and avenge himself, but Sun CE didn''t do it. Zhang Xiu thought a little and understood.


    "Good sun CE, it''s not easy."


    Zhang Xiu said with emotion: "Sun CE must know that if he killed Liu Biao, then I can spread the news of Liu Biao''s death, and then control Jingzhou with no blood, it will be more smooth. So he left Liu Biao. In particular, he was sure that I would kill Liu Biao, so he left so relieved. "


    Huang Zhong said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Biao sat on the horse, less than 20 steps away from Zhang Xiu. When he heard Zhang Xiu''s words clearly, his face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu is going to kill him!


    What to do?


    Liu Biao looked around, and there were a lot of cavalry in front of him.


    There are infantry behind the cavalry. Zhang Xiu''s army is really elite. Liu Biao is surrounded by only hundreds of soldiers, especially those who have lost their will to fight. They can''t protect Liu Biao from evacuating.


    Gudong!


    Liu Biao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart suddenly extremely panic, and said in a loud voice: "Jiang Ping, I''m your uncle. How do you face Yueying and your father-in-law when you kill me? "Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "don''t you have Liu Biao in the rear, plotting with Liu Bei to deal with me? Liu Biao, it''s a little late to talk with me now. You Liu Biao, from the beginning to the end, have never had any feelings with me. You won''t hesitate to kill me. And now I will not hesitate to kill you. "


    Liu Biao said in a loud voice: "no, no, no, you can''t kill me. Zhang Xiu, you killed me, Jingzhou will be turbulent, there will be countless people said you killed me. At that time, you can''t control Jingzhou. Even Jingzhou will be in turmoil. "


    At this moment, Liu Biao panicked.


    He also understood why Sun CE didn''t kill him, clearly waiting for Zhang Xiu to kill him.


    Sun CE and Zhang Xiu are united.


    Liu Biao continued: "as long as you don''t kill me, I can submit to you. I''m willing to give you Jingzhou. Jiang Ping, at least we are related. Please don''t kill me. "


    At this moment, Liu Biao lost face.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    He can only ask Zhang Xiu for mercy.


    But Zhang Xiu said: "the truth that fighting a tiger never dies, but being hurt by a tiger is innumerable. Your watch is not a fuel-efficient lamp. These years, if my strength is not growing, so that you can not control, how can you let me occupy the north of Jingzhou. Liu Biao, since the day you and Liu Bei united, you have been on the road of no return. "


    When Liu Biao saw that Zhang Xiu was so determined to kill him, he burst into a rage. He broke the jar and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are too deceiving. You killed me. When the news comes out, no one in Jingzhou will convince you. "


    "No, no!"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "you didn''t die in my hands, you died in sun CE''s hands. It''s not me who killed you, but Sun CE. I, Zhang Xiu, want to avenge you. "


    Zhang Xiu is clear about sun CE''s intention.


    Sun CE wants to make him a murderer of Liu Biao, but even if Zhang Xiu kills Liu Biao, she will not admit it. She will arrange for people to spread the news that sun CE killed Liu Biao. After all, Zhang Xiu knows that Gu Yong is a spy, which is convincing enough.


    Even if sun CE says that Zhang Xiu killed Liu Biao, sun CE''s argument is untenable and no one will believe it. What''s more, there are many families in Jingzhou, such as the Kuai family, the Cai family and the Huang family. These are all on Zhang Xiu''s side, and Zhang Xiu is not worried at all.


    Liu Biao gritted his teeth and said, "unexpectedly, you Zhang Xiu colluded with sun CE."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "from the beginning to the end, I didn''t collude with sun CE. Sun CE, it''s just a knife in my hand. I have to restrain it. The reason is very simple. Gu Yong, who kept you in the dark, estimated that now you know that Gu Yong is sun CE''s man. "


    "When he was by your side, I noticed something was wrong, so I made an early investigation."


    "Then I arranged for someone to catch Gu Yong''s family by my side, so as to intimidate sun CE and let him attack you. With Gu Yong as the internal agent, he instigated, you really sent troops, and then there was the battle of hulugu. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "now even if you die, you should die plainly."


    Liu Biao''s cheek twitched and sighed in his heart.


    I didn''t expect that.


    He was deceived from beginning to end.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated and gave an order.


    Under the command of the cavalry, carrying a sword, riding forward to kill.

 Chapter 658

    Liu Biao''s face changed when he saw the cavalry killed. He roared and ordered the soldiers to come forward to arrive, but after more than 100 bodyguards were killed, they were all killed in less than a cup of tea.


    Seeing a cavalry come to kill him, Liu Biao is about to escape. But he didn''t dismount. The blade had fallen. The sharp light of the knife flashed away from Liu Biao''s body.


    After the blade, Liu Biao''s throat, a bloodstain burst.


    "Poof!"


    Blood splashed, Liu Biao opened his eyes, raised his hand to cover his throat, and babbled in his mouth. But after the throat was cut, blood surged up, making his mouth full of blood.


    Liu Biao wanted to speak, but when he reached his mouth, he made a sound. There was no sound at all.


    Endless darkness enveloped Liu Biao.


    At the moment, Liu Biao''s mind is gradually confused.


    At this moment, Liu Biao regretted.


    He regretted dealing with Zhang Xiu.


    He regretted inviting Zhang Xiu to Jingzhou.


    If he didn''t deal with Zhang Xiu, there would be no present result. If he did not invite Zhang Xiu to Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu would not go south in a short time. Even if Zhang Xiu wanted to attack Xiangyang, Liu Biao would not have died so cowardly.


    This regret fills the heart, in the twinkling of an eye, he no longer has the slightest consciousness. In front of a dark, the body lost the center of gravity, is to fall down.


    Plop!


    Liu Biao''s body, directly fell on the ground, the body twitched twice, then there was no breath.


    "I surrender, don''t kill me!"


    "I will surrender!"


    "Don''t kill me!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers cried out to surrender, but the cavalry who killed back and forth did not stop. Those who resist, or those who give up, are all killed.


    In less than half an hour, all the remaining Jingzhou soldiers were killed.


    Less than ten soldiers under Zhang Xiu died in the war.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to throw all the bodies into the burning hulugu Valley, and ordered them to retreat.


    After this battle, Liu Biao''s 30000 elite soldiers were destroyed.


    The next step is to deal with Liu Bei.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, please arrange the royal guards to tell Kuai Liang the news that Liu Biao was killed by sun CE. Please Kuai Liang contact the people in Jingzhou to control the situation. When the news of Liu Biao''s death comes back, he immediately supports Liu Biao''s son to serve as a herdsman in Jingzhou and is ready to surrender. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu ordered to march in the direction of Wan county.


    At this time, the army led by sun CE had already attacked Liu Bei. Today''s sun CE still fulfills Zhang Xiu''s arrangement to attack Liu Bei, so as to change his family.


    Soon after noon, sun CE and his army arrived at Liu Bei''s camp.


    Sun CE was fierce when the army was arrayed.


    However, sun CE did not order the attack, but waited for Liu Bei to lead his troops out.


    Soon, Liu Bei came out.


    When Liu Bei saw sun CE, he said he had never seen sun CE, but at a glance, he judged sun CE''s identity. Today, there are only Zhang Xiu''s army and sun CE''s army in Anhui Province.


    But how does Sun CE go deep into the hinterland of Anhui county?


    Liu Bei''s heart is very confused.


    Sun CE said, "Liu Bei, you are still wondering why I suddenly came outside your barracks. Why is Liu Biao''s barracks empty and the army gone, right? "


    Liu Bei said, "that''s right!"


    In the morning, Liu Bei went to see Liu Biao, only to know that Liu Biao left with his soldiers, and did not know where he had gone. At this time, Liu Bei was on guard when he realized something was wrong.


    Sun CE said: "the reason is very simple. Gu Yong is my man. This time, Zhang Xiu and I joined forces to make use of Gu Yong and let Liu Biao send troops all night. Now, Liu Biao has died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. And I led the army to defeat you, followed by Zhang Xiu''s army, is about to arrive. Do you want to fight me now? "


    Boom!!


    When Liu Bei heard the speech, he felt like thunder in his head, and his mind was extremely flustered.


    Liu Biao is dead!


    And Liu Biao died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Even sun CE and Zhang Xiu united, and Gu Yong was Sun CE''s man. One by one, the news is extremely shocking. Even though Liu Bei''s psychological quality is very strong, he can''t help but panic.


    "No!"


    Zhuge Liang has sharp eyes.


    He clenched the feather fan in his hand and said in a deep voice: "since you sun CE and Zhang Xiu are united in attacking Liu Biao, why didn''t Zhang Xiu come with you. The combination of your two armies is enough to destroy us. "


    "Second, who can prove that Liu Biao died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Third, Gu Yong is one of your Sun CE''s men. You sun CE has an advantage and can ambush Liu Biao. "


    "In this case, you can kill Liu Biao first and then defeat us one by one. Maybe now, you want to scare us off with the help of this news and fight with Zhang Xiu alone! "After a pause, Zhuge Liang said again, "Sun CE, since you used Gu Yong to make Liu Biao go out all night to destroy him. Now that we have reached this point, we can unite to attack Zhang Xiu and leave her in Wan county. "


    There was a flash of light in sun CE''s eyes.


    What a great Zhuge Liang.


    At a glance, we can see that things are not right. Without Gu Yong''s family, sun CE is naturally willing to unite with Liu Bei. But in the present situation, sun CE was obviously unwilling, otherwise Gu Yong''s family would be in danger.


    Sun CE''s intention is to follow Zhou Yu''s suggestion. He doesn''t want to fight with Liu Bei and hopes Liu Bei will leave without fighting. In this way, after Liu Bei left, sun CE''s own forces were hardly damaged, and he was not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    If sun CE and Liu Bei fight for a while, and when Zhang Xiu arrives, Zhang Xiu''s strength will be enough to sweep the two sides of the fight. After all, Snipes and clams will fight for profits.


    Zhang Xiu is the fisherman behind.


    Zhou Yu took over the conversation and said with a smile, "you''re Zhuge Liang. You''re called Wolong. It''s really not easy. Unfortunately, you are wrong. You didn''t guess wrong about the whole judgment, but what you expected wrong was that although we placed Gu Yong next to Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu caught Gu Yong''s family members from Wu County


    After a pause, Zhou Yu said, "now we are controlled by others. If you don''t retreat, we have to attack you. If both sides lose, it can only be Zhang Xiu who gains. Now, you retreat immediately and exit Lujiang River. Perhaps, it can make waves in Jingzhou. If you don''t retreat, God knows the consequences. "


    When sun CE looked at Zhou Yu, he was surprised.


    Why did Zhou Yu persuade him.


    The reason why he said that was because at this stage, there was no need to hide. Only in this way can Liu Bei withdraw.


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, his face changed again and again, and he was even more moved by Zhang Xiu''s means. At this moment, he finally understood why Zhang Xiu was so smart and willing to be a forward.


    Because Zhang Xiu has Gu Yong''s family, because Zhang Xiu can restrain sun CE''s army.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhuge Liang took a look at Zhou Yu, but he was also secretly interested. This Zhou Yu is not simple. He deliberately revealed the news to him, just to let them retreat to Jingzhou first, and then take action in Jingzhou, so as to make trouble for Zhang Xiu.


    Knowing Zhou Yu''s calculation, Zhuge Liang didn''t say much. He looked at Liu Bei and said, "Lord, withdraw!"


    "Withdraw


    Liu Bei understood the cause and effect, and sighed in his heart. He has no choice but to solve Zhang Xiu''s calculation. Now, Liu Bei can only order a retreat.


    After Liu Bei''s quick retreat, the army led by sun CE stayed in the same place, waiting for the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s army.

 Chapter 659

    Under sun CE''s command, 40000 elite soldiers were arrayed in order. One by one, the soldiers were brave and high spirited, and their fighting will was extremely strong. Some of these soldiers were Sun Jian''s veterans. They respected countless battles and were extremely fierce. The vast majority of the rest of the soldiers followed sun CE to fight everywhere and were no longer new recruits.


    Time goes by little.


    Sun cejunlang had a touch of anxiety on his cheek because he was worried. In case Zhang Xiu refuses to hand over Gu Yong''s family, what should he do and how to deal with it.


    Compared with sun CE''s impatience, Gu Yong stood aside and looked into the distance from time to time, feeling even more uneasy.


    After all, it''s all his family.


    His parents, as well as his wife and other heirs, are in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhou Yu saw Gu Yong and sun CE''s expressions in his eyes, but he didn''t say anything to comfort him. Because it involved the lives of his family, no one could understand more than Gu Yong. Now it''s useless to say that they are safe and dangerous, and they can only wait quietly.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, there was a sentry in the distance.


    The sentinel came to sun CE and reported: "here we are, my Lord. Zhang Xiu''s army is coming straight to us. Today, Zhang Xiu''s army is less than six miles away from us. "


    Hoo!!


    Sun CE Chang breathed a sigh of relief.


    Finally.


    It''s time to have a clear result whether to let people go or not.


    Six li road time, really not far, time is not long, sun CE saw the front of the mighty army of Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, it was still cavalry in front, mighty and fierce.


    Sun CE didn''t feel surprised. He waited until Zhang Xiu''s cavalry formed an array and rode out. Looking at Zhang Xiu''s army, he said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, it''s time to let people go."


    Zhang Xiu said: "on my way here, I heard from the sentinel that you, sun CE''s army, arrived at Liu Bei''s barracks and then withdrew tens of thousands of Liu Bei''s troops. It''s really powerful."


    Sun CE drew his cheek. According to the agreement with Zhang Xiu, he defeated Liu Biao first, and then attacked Liu Bei. He took Zhou Yu''s advice and made Liu Bei retreat without fighting.


    Sun CE took a deep breath and then said, "Zhang Taiwei, whether I attack and order Liu Bei to retreat, or I use words to order Liu Bei to retreat, in a word, I have done what I agreed before. Gu Yong''s family, you should hand it in. Besides, it''s time for you to quit Lujiang County. Because if you come back to Jingzhou later, I''m afraid Liu Bei will take the lead. Maybe he will directly support others to take over Jingzhou. At that time, you will not only be cut off, but also be defeated. "


    "Unfortunately, you are disappointed."


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile, "after you killed Liu Biao, I''ve already sent someone to send someone to put you in hulugu valley. The news came that Liu Biao and tens of thousands of troops were killed by a fire."


    Sun CE said: "nonsense, I didn''t kill you..."


    As soon as she said that, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Sun CE, are you sure you didn''t kill Liu Biao. If you didn''t kill Liu Biao in the first battle of hulugu, could you kill all the soldiers under Liu Biao''s command? If you destroy Liu Biao''s army, you will take advantage of the situation to kill Liu Biao and take revenge. Sun CE, you killed Liu Biao and avenged your father. How can you deny such a thing? "


    Sun CE was a little surprised.


    Zhang Xiu is too shameless.


    Obviously, it was intentional. He wanted to plant the killing of Liu Biao on Sun CE.


    Of course, sun CE didn''t care about it.


    He wanted to kill Liu Biao.


    It was only because of Zhou Yu''s suggestion that Liu Biao was not killed. Did not expect a twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu rigidly put this matter, inserted in his head, to let him bear the matter of killing Liu Biao.


    It''s a hole.


    Sun CE wants to refute in his heart, but suddenly, he sees Zhang Xiu wave his hand, and Gu Yong''s family members are brought out. When I got to my mouth, I immediately swallowed it.


    He still has hostages in Zhang Xiu''s hands, and even Zhang Xiu does it on purpose, that is, to use Gu Yong''s family to force him not to refute the killing of Liu Biao.


    Zhou Yu stood aside, his brows locked.


    He intended to calculate Zhang Xiu, but he didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was still better, so he calculated again.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I expect that sun CE''s plan is for Liu Bei to preserve his strength, and then retreat to Jingzhou to set off a storm in order to trigger a war. It''s a pity that all the people in Jingzhou are my own. You tell sun ce the news of Liu Biao''s defeat. It doesn''t really work


    The pupil in Zhou Yu''s eyes shrank.


    Has Zhang Xiu figured it out?


    Zhou Yu''s fighting with Liu Biao and Liu Bei had double calculation. The first calculation is not to kill Liu Biao, let Zhang Xiu kill Liu Biao, and then spread the news, which makes Zhang Xiu bear the reputation of killing Zhang Xiu. As a result, Zhang Xiu can not capture Jingzhou, at least delay the speed of Zhang Xiu''s control of Jingzhou. The second calculation is to let Liu Bei leave and let Liu Bei return to Jingzhou first, which makes it more difficult for Zhang Xiu to capture Jingzhou, and even further makes Jingzhou turbulent.Unfortunately, every step of his calculation was seen through by Zhang Xiu, and even resolved in advance.


    Sun CE saw Zhou Yu''s expression. He knew that his brother Jieyi''s magnanimity was a real scholar''s demeanor, and even Zhou Yu''s talent was outstanding. But Zhang Xiu could make Zhou Yu speechless, and sun CE was also surprised.


    But Sun CE immediately took the talk and said, "Zhang Xiu, less nonsense. No matter what we do, the first Liu Biao is out and the second Liu Bei is out. The previous agreement has been reached. Now, you can fulfill your agreement, hand over Gu Yong''s family, and then withdraw from Lujiang County. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu did not refuse.


    He won''t go back on what he promised. Now is not the time to completely change face with sun CE.


    "Let go!"


    Zhang Xiu orders that Gu Yong''s family members leave quickly in panic.


    When they came back to sun CE''s army, they saw Gu Yong, and they all wept with joy. One by one, their faces were full of joy. Finally, they came back to their families.


    When Gu Yong''s family got together, they were also crying with joy. A big stone fell to the ground in their heart, and they expressed thanks to sun CE one after another. If sun CE had not considered him, he would not have been calculated.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Sun CE, remind Gu Yong to change his name when he lurks next time. Guyong and Guyong, it''s too obvious that you don''t change the medicine or the soup. Of course, I welcome you to continue to lurk in Xiangyang next time. I''m looking forward to meeting you again next time. "


    "Withdraw


    Zhang Xiu gave the order to retreat.


    The army no longer stayed, but quickly went on their way and left Wan county. After Zhang Xiu''s army left, sun CE''s eyes fell back on Zhou Yu and said, "Gongjin, what do you think of Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhou Yu said: "Zhang Xiu is a man who rose up in a short time and has been in Guanzhong. The man''s mind is deep and unfathomable. In the whole thing, Zhang Xiu just grasped one point, that is, Yuan Tan''s identity, and then broke his face to make trouble, thus reversing the whole war situation and becoming a big winner in this war. It''s not easy. "


    Sun CE once again said: "you say Liu Bei in Jingzhou, can set off waves?"


    "Hard!"


    Zhou Yu shook his head and sighed: "according to Yuan Tan, even the Kuai family, Cai family and other Jingzhou clans are already on Zhang Xiu''s side. Even if Liu Bei returns to Jingzhou first, he will not be able to do anything. "


    Sun CE said: "this time, I made a wedding dress for Zhang Xiu."


    Zhou Yu laughed and said, "no matter what, we have made money. Let''s go, first control Wan County, and then prepare to control Lujiang County. "


    Sun CE nodded and said nothing more. He led the army straight to Wan county.

 Chapter 660

    Jiangxia County, Xiling county.


    Taishou mansion, in the study.


    Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia, is reading a book and seems calm. In today''s situation, Huang Zu does not know what the situation is on the front line. He can only arrange sentries to inquire about the situation in Lujiang County.


    Huang Zu was born in the Huang family of Jingzhou, and he is a brother of the same race with Huang Chengyan. In the early years, although Huang Chengyan was a direct member of the Huang family, Huang''s ancestors didn''t really think much of him. Even though Huang Chengyan was a famous man, he was a man of cloth and had no power.


    Although the two sides have contacts, they are not close.


    After the marriage of Huang family and Zhang Xiu, Huang Chengyan got the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper. Huang family''s strength increased rapidly, and countless sources of money were gathered in Huang family.


    Such a Huang family, even if it is Huang Zu, also gives birth to intimacy. After all, money can communicate with God. So after that, Huang and Huang became closer.


    In particular, Huang Chengyan took out a part of the profit and gave it to Huang Zu as the benefit of Huang Zu''s promotion of rice paper in Jiangxia. Under such a premise, Huang Zu and Huang Chengyan are completely together, and they are both prosperous and at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time.


    In particular, with the passage of time, Zhang Xiu''s rapid rise, becoming a Zhennan general, then a Sili captain, and now a Taiwei in the court, defeated Cao Cao and retired Yuan Shao, all these things have established Zhang Xiu''s position.


    Huang Chengyan''s position rose.


    At this time, Huang Zu recognized Huang Chengyan. He had already regarded himself as a member of the Huang family, and he thought he was Zhang Xiu''s person, because Zhang Xiu swept Jingzhou, which was a foregone conclusion.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door, from outside the room.


    Huang Zu heard this and said, "come in!"


    The door creaked and a young man strode in. The visitor is of medium build, slightly mellow, and his appearance is six points similar to that of Huang Zu. He is Huang she, the son of Huang Zu. He is 24 years old.


    After saluting, Huang she sat down and said excitedly, "father, Lujiang County has sent back the news. Sun CE killed Liu Biao and killed all his 30000 excellent soldiers, including Liu Biao. When Zhang Taiwei arrived, he was already a step late. In addition, sun CE forced Liu Bei to retreat. Now, Liu Bei is coming to Jiangxia County, and Zhang Taiwei''s army is following him


    "It''s strange!"


    Huang Zu stroked the white beard under his jaw and said, "Liu Biao''s 30000 excellent soldiers have been annihilated. But Liu Bei and Taiwei retreated one after another. Is there no Taiwei thing in this


    "No way!"


    Huang she said: "according to my son, there must be something fishy in it. I''m afraid we can only wait a little longer. The news is not credible. "


    "What my son said is true, but no matter what, Liu Biao died. Next, Taiwei took over Jingzhou, and it was easy. We Huang''s family, following Taiwei, will be able to prosper. "


    Huang she said with a smile: "Yueying gave birth to her son Zhang Cheng for Zhang Xiu. Our Huang family is different. Although Yuan Shao was domiciled in Jizhou, Cao Cao also took advantage of the emperor to order the princes. But in fact, Taiwei took Liangzhou, occupied Guanzhong, and now captured Jingzhou, which is extraordinary. His strength is already quite powerful, and he has the momentum to sweep the world. "


    Huang Zu also stroked his beard with a smile.


    This is with you Rong Yan.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, there was another voice outside the study, but the housekeeper of huangzu''s family came. After knocking on the door, he entered and hurried to Huang Zu''s side, reporting: "my Lord, there is a secret report coming back."


    Huang Zu quickly took the secret report from the housekeeper and made a quick investigation.


    After watching, Huang Zu waved his hand to let people back down.


    Huang Zu said in a deep voice: "sheer, the news just sent back is the news spread by Liu Bei. Liu Bei said that it was not sun CE who killed Liu Biao. Although sun CE defeated Liu Biao, he did not kill Liu Biao. Instead, Tai Wei killed Liu Biao. "


    Huang she said with a smile, "Sun CE hates Liu Biao to the bone. Why didn''t he kill Liu Biao? If there is a chance, in my opinion, sun CE should kill Liu Biao. "


    Huang Zu said: "in a word, Liu Biao''s death must have something to do with Taiwei. Otherwise, sun CE could not easily destroy Liu Biao''s army. "


    "Newspaper!"


    The report sounded again.


    The housekeeper entered again and said, "my Lord, someone outside the mansion claims to be the royal guards under the command of Zhang Taiwei. I''d like to see you."


    Huang said, "please hurry up!"


    The housekeeper went to inform him. Soon, a middle-aged man in his late 30s, dressed as a Ranger, came in. After saluting Huang Zu, he took out a letter and handed it to Huang Zu, saying, "Huang Taishou, this is Taiwei''s arrangement. I hope you can carry it out."


    Huang Zu quickly opened the letter and looked at its contents.


    There are two things in this letter.


    The first thing is that sun CE killed Liu Biao, not Zhang Xiu; the second thing is that Liu Bei didn''t rush to help Liu Biao, leading to Liu Biao''s death. Now Liu Bei wants to return to Jingzhou to capture Jingzhou, and let Huang Zu lead the troops to block Liu Bei''s entry into Jiangxia. Zhang Xiu''s army will follow closely.Huang Zu put down the letter and said, "report to Taiwei, and I will execute it immediately."


    "Here it is


    The royal guards are ordered to turn back.


    As soon as Huang Shegang was about to ask, Huang Zu handed the letter directly to Huang Sheh and said, "sheer, in Taiwei''s letter, it''s also said that sun CE killed Liu Biao, and Liu Bei didn''t rush to help Liu Biao."


    "Now, we spread the news according to these two pieces of news."


    "In addition, we will mobilize troops to stop Liu Bei''s army. Taiwei said that his army would follow closely to encircle and suppress Liu Bei. But in my opinion, this is our chance. "


    Huang Zu said, "if we kill Liu Bei and capture Liu Bei''s army, we will make a great contribution. So this time, I''m going to try my best to mobilize the army and fight Liu Bei. "


    After hearing this, Huang she nodded and said, "now it seems that it is meaningless to analyze the war in Lujiang County. What''s more, in my opinion, Taiwei can''t admit that he killed Liu Biao. Then according to my father''s arrangement, we will mobilize a large army to fight against Liu Bei. Take Liu Bei as the best gift to serve Taiwei. "


    Huang Zu said with a smile, "what my son said is true."


    Huang she stood up and said, "my son will go to the barracks immediately and gather the troops and horses."


    "Good!"


    Huang Zu nodded.


    Huang she has always been under the command of Huang Zu. He has practiced martial arts early, and is quite skilled in bowing and horse riding. He also has some prestige in the army. After all, Huang Zu is the prefect of Jiangxia, and Huang she is Huang Zu''s son.


    After Huang she arrived at the barracks, he quickly ordered and mobilized the troops of the whole Jiangxia county.


    Jiangxia County, as a border town in the east of Jingzhou and adjacent to Jiangdong, is equipped with sufficient troops. Light is in the hands of Huang Zu, there are 30000 elite, this is not a weak force.


    When thirty thousand elite soldiers gathered, Huang Zu arrived with his armor on top. After Huang Zu''s admonition, he said that Liu Biao had been killed by sun CE and that Liu Bei had not rushed to help and had slandered Zhang Xiu, so he ordered to attack.


    The army is mighty and fast out of the city. After the army left the city, Huang Zu led his troops all the way, and finally came to the only way from Lujiang County to Jiangxia. The army set up camp and set up the battle.


    In this battle, Huang zushi must win.


    If he takes the head of Liu Bei''s three brothers and works for Zhang Xiu, he is bound to be reused. Huang Zu is now the prefect of a county, and he has some wild hopes in his heart. If he can serve as the state pastor of a state, then the strength of the Huang family will rise again.

 Chapter 661

    On the official road, Liu Bei led the army and was on a fast track.


    Today, under Liu Bei''s command, there are still 20000 elite soldiers and more than 3000 auxiliary soldiers. The 3000 odd auxiliary soldiers, in fact, can also be said to be soldiers in the army. They were recruited along the way after Liu Bei led his troops into Lujiang County. His current strength is not weak, and his troops are hardly damaged in the battle of Lujiang County.


    What Liu Bei wants to do now is to withdraw Jingzhou first, and then support Liu Qi to take over Jingzhou. As long as Liu Qi becomes a herdsman in Jingzhou, he can use Liu Qi to stop Zhang Xiu, and even use his best forces to strangle Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou.


    Once successful, Liu Bei''s strength will expand rapidly.


    This is Liu Bei''s plan.


    After entering Jiangxia County, the army went straight to Xiling county. If you want to go to Xiangyang, you have to pass through Xiling County, leave Xiling County, cross Jiangxia County, and then enter Xiangyang.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, there was a report from the sentinel in front of us. With the sound of horse''s hooves, the sentinel rushed back.


    Soon, the sentry came to Liu Bei.


    Sentinel report: "my Lord, fifteen miles in front of us, there is Jiangxia County governor Huang Zu with troops stationed, has been set up to block our progress."


    Zhuge Liang answered and asked, "how many troops does Huang Zu have?"


    "Thirty thousand!"


    The sentry answered directly.


    Zhuge shook his feather fan, looked at Liu Bei and said, "Huang Zu has 30000 elites under his command. However, according to his humble position, this battle should not be difficult and can be won. But in today''s situation, even Huang Zu has sent troops to stop him. He thinks that our plan to support Liu Qi is not feasible. "


    Liu Bei said, "why?"


    Zhuge Liang analyzed: "this Jiangxia huangzu and Jingzhou Huangjia are one. To some extent, Huang Zu is also the elder of Zhang Xiu. He led the troops to stop us, obviously on Zhang Xiu''s order. "


    "Now, we can really defeat Huang Zu."


    "But after defeating Huang Zu and entering Xiangyang, there are Kuai family, Cai family and so on. These families will also boycott us. Therefore, the current view of humble position is that after defeating Huang Zu, he will no longer enter Xiangyang in the west, but go north by a detour and go directly to Yuzhou. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "this time, instead of going to Xiangyang, we will go back to Yuzhou."


    Liu Bei frowned. He was very unwilling.


    He went to Jingzhou to stop Zhang Xiu from Taking Jingzhou and to make an alliance with Liu Biao. To the end, he tossed about, still failed, such a result. Liu Bei was not reconciled.


    Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "Lord, even if we enter Xiangyang, we can support Liu Qi or Liu Cong. But with the Kuai family, Pang family and Cai family, we can''t have a foothold in Jingzhou. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang continued: "without Liu Biao, Jingzhou will collapse completely. The current situation, can only ignore the situation in Jingzhou. We should be constantly determined, but we should be disturbed. When the time comes, we may get out of the dilemma. "


    Liu Bei sighed: "Alas..."


    He is very melancholy.


    He is constantly actively running, is to fight for opportunities to expand power, did not expect that now, it is so miserable.


    Liu Bei said: "commander, you should arrange people to sneak into Xiangyang immediately and send a letter to Guan Ping, asking him to take people away from Xiangyang and return to Yuzhou. Next, after we defeated Huang Zu, we went straight north. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    When Zhuge Liang heard the speech, he was also relieved.


    To stay in Jingzhou now is to fall into the mire, which is an extremely unwise choice.


    The best way is to leave.


    Liu Bei''s eyes were cold and fierce, and said: "under the current situation, let''s take down Huang Zu and cut off Zhang Xiu''s arm. Isn''t this Zhang Xiu''s favorite hit person? This time, we will kill Huang Zu and let Zhang Xiu suffer from the pain to the bone. "


    Zhuge Liang did not refuse.


    The army is still on the way, and Huang Zu''s army is getting closer and closer.


    When the distance between the two sides had been narrowed to less than a mile, and Huang Zu''s army could be seen clearly, Liu Bei directly ordered to blow the trumpet to attack. Under the fierce sound of the trumpet, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led the army to march forward.


    This attack is an all-out attack.


    No matter Zhang Fei, Guan Yu or the rest of the soldiers, they had nothing left.


    More than 20000 soldiers spread out on the wide flat ground, whistling and roaring.


    "Kill


    Shouts, one after another.


    When Liu Bei''s army came out, Huang Zu, who was also unwilling, gave the order to attack. With this order, all the elite soldiers under Huang Xu''s command were photographed. Even Huang Zu and Huang she went to the battlefield in person.


    The two sides went to war in a flash.


    When the two armies fight, there is no superfluous corner of the mouth, no superfluous nonsense. It is directly face-to-face killing.


    Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, just like two sharp knives, keep rushing forward.Its offensive is unmatched in sharpness.


    In the case of no one can resist, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei''s offensive, where no one can stop. Zhang eight snake spears flying, a soldier, constantly fell to the ground. The cold light of the green dragon Yanyue sword flickers, and the blade brings out a lot of blood.


    Led by two men, the soldiers under his command are also extremely fierce.


    Its combat effectiveness is extremely strong.


    Huang she saw Zhang Fei slaughtering soldiers. He was also a man with excellent martial arts skills and thought he was no weaker than anyone else. Seeing Zhang Fei''s ferocity, Huang she quickly approached Zhang Fei with his sword in his hand. He swung the sword in his hand and chopped it down, saying: "die!"


    A low drink, the blade has fallen.


    The sharp blade, with a piercing howl in the air, reached Zhang Fei''s back in the twinkling of an eye. However, Zhang Fei''s back seemed to have an eye. When the blade was about to split on Zhang Fei''s body, Zhang BA''s snake spear pulled back to block the knife.


    "Dang!"


    The weapon strikes, the sound vibrates the eardrum.


    Zhang Fei''s hand swings, then swings away the fallen sword. As soon as the snake spear in his hand was put in and poked out, it was like lightning. It was like a poisonous snake spitting out a message, reaching Huang she''s body in an instant.


    This blow is as fast as lightning.


    Huang she almost didn''t react. When he cut down Zhang BA''s snake spear with his knife, he stabbed Zhang BA''s snake spear into Huang she''s heart without any hesitation.


    The point of the spear pierced the heart.


    "Poof!"


    The scarlet blood splashed directly, and even more spots of blood spilled on Zhang Fei''s face. But Zhang Fei didn''t care and continued to fight. He never looked at Huang she again.


    Huang she straddled on the horse''s back, his face was full of pain, his mouth was full of blood, his eyes quickly became dark, and finally no more glory.


    "Plop!"


    Huang''s body fell to the ground.


    "Shoot!"


    Not far away, Huang Zu saw the killed Huang she and roared. His knee on such a son, now even died in the hands of Zhang Fei, Huang Zu not reconciled, carrying a knife on the fast forward.


    "Da! Dada


    When Huang Zu rushed to Zhang Fei, there was a sudden sound of horse hooves.


    A war horse, straight to huangzu.


    "Die


    Sharp sound, reverberating in the battlefield, but see a burly figure, to Huang Zu''s side. Immediately after that, the sharp light of the knife flickered in the air, and the blade was cut off in an instant.


    "Yes


    The blade falls, cuts through Huang Zu''s chest clavicle, and then cuts through his back and tail vertebrae.


    "Poof!"


    Blood spattered.


    Huang Zu screamed, and the upper body and the lower body broke for understanding. The two corpses fell to the ground, blood spilled on the ground, the body twitched twice, there was no breath.


    Guan Yu killed Huang Zu with one knife.


    There is no stagnation in the whole process.

 Chapter 662

    Guan Yu''s trip to Jingzhou, from the beginning to the end, was extremely subdued. And all his grievances are due to Zhang Xiu. That full of depression, in this battlefield vent out, killing constantly.


    Guan Yu killed Huang Zu, and Zhang Fei killed Huang she. The two men joined hands to attack. It was like destroying the army under Huang Zu. The whole army of Huang Zu was defeated like a mountain.


    Rao is so, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu did not stop, still in constant slaughter. Even if some soldiers surrender, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu don''t stop. Wherever they pass, everything will be killed.


    All those who stood in front of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were slaughtered.


    The fighting goes on and the flight goes on. There are few Jiangxia troops in Jingzhou to resist. Most of them, seeing that surrender was useless, began to flee.


    Time goes by little.


    Half an hour is fleeting.


    Liu Bei always put benevolence and righteousness first, but at the moment, he did not stop Guan Yu and Zhang Fei from killing. This trip to Jingzhou, Liu Bei''s heart is still depressed, now there is a chance to kill, he let his soldiers kill.


    Zhuge Liang did not dissuade him. He gently shakes the feather fan, and a light flashes in his eyes. He wants to see how Zhang Xiu faces the turbulent Jiangxia after killing Huang Zu.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a sentry came to the rear.


    Sentinel came to Liu Bei''s side and reported: "my Lord, there is an army of Zhang Xiu 35 miles away from the rear. Now, Zhang Xiu''s army is on its way to Xiling county. "


    Liu Bei waved his hand to let the sentinel retreat. His eyes narrowed and he said: "the speed of Zhang Xiu is really fast. It''s only thirty miles away from us. Retreat, full speed


    With the order issued, Liu Bei''s army, no longer fighting, quickly withdrew from the battlefield, and then all the way north.


    Liu Bei did not stay.


    He didn''t want to stir up the civil strife in Jingzhou. He didn''t dare to enter Xiangyang. He was afraid that he would fall into the whirlpool of Xiangyang and eventually he would not be able to leave.


    As time goes by, there are still countless soldiers on the battlefield.


    Many soldiers screamed.


    Many soldiers nestled together.


    Among them, the generals began to clean up the battlefield and clean up the mess.


    As the soldiers straightened out the battlefield, the sound of horse''s hooves came from afar.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu''s cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to withdraw from Lujiang County. Huang Zhong led the infantry to postpone. Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun and others, led the cavalry of the flying bear army, rushed all the way to catch up with Liu Bei, intending to take Liu Bei. Along the way, both sides are constantly shortening the distance, but Liu Bei is not satisfied with the speed of his retreat, so he has not caught up, but the distance between the two sides has been shortened.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the battlefield, she saw that Huang Zu and Huang she had been killed, and saw the bodies of soldiers on the battlefield one by one. Her face was as heavy as water. She didn''t expect that Huang Zu would be defeated so quickly, so she was defeated.


    Now the first general is Liu Zhen. His face was uneasy. After reporting the situation to Zhang Xiu, he said: "Taiwei, Liu Bei killed countless people. He finally withdrew."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu has been sending the royal guards to know the direction of Liu Bei''s retreat. He looked at Liu Zhen and said, "you continue to count the losses. The army under my command will arrive soon. At that time, you will be obedient."


    "Here it is


    Liu Zhen responded directly.


    "Chase


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    He led his ten thousand elite cavalry and sent troops to pursue them again. This time Liu Bei fled in such a hurry. If he did not catch up, he would have missed the chance. Of course, for the death of Huang Zu, as well as the death of Huang she, Zhang Xiu is not sad.


    After all, there is no intersection between Zhang Xiu and Huang Zu and Huang she.


    In addition, Huang''s father and son are willing to submit because Huang Chengyan has given them benefits. Even if the two men were obedient to Zhang Xiu, it would be difficult for Zhang Xiu to intervene when the father and son were in Jiangxia county. Now Liu Bei killed Huang Zu''s father and son, which, to some extent, solved Zhang Xiu''s great trouble and enabled Zhang Xiu to arrange people to control Jiang Xia.


    Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others have their own ideas.


    Although Zhao Yun and Liu Bei are already out of the question. But Zhao Yun admired Liu Bei''s virtue in the past, but today, seeing the countless dead people on the battlefield, Zhao Yun shook his head in his heart.


    To be sure, it''s a battle.


    But now Liu Bei''s killing in Jingzhou is for his own personal gain.


    It''s not a gentleman who slaughters countless people.


    Ma Chao doesn''t care. What he wants is to make contributions and strive for a bright future for his son.


    Everyone has his own mind and keeps chasing.


    All the horses are on their way at full speed. This kind of speed is close to the limit, and it is the fastest speed. Just like this, the distance between the two sides is constantly shortening.


    At this time, the two sides were still in Xiling county and had not left Xiling county."Chase, give me full speed chase, we are about to catch up with Liu Bei."


    Zhang Xiu orders loudly.


    The flying bear army under his command is very effective. One by one, they are full of tenacity and constantly drum up their horses, so that the soldiers can speed up their advance and shorten the distance between them and Liu Bei.


    In the case of Zhang Xiu''s relentless pursuit, even if Liu Bei retreated in front of her, she began to panic. Because once caught up by Zhang Xiu, the consequences are unimaginable.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu was so obsessed that she wanted to chase him.


    Liu Bei''s soldiers, though cavalry. But in fact, most of the soldiers are infantry. Once on the battlefield, after Zhang Xiu''s cavalry set up their positions, Liu Bei couldn''t resist, and the infantry must have suffered a great loss.


    This is Liu Bei''s worry.


    At this time, Liu Bei began to regret killing Huang Zu and Huang she. He thought that it was most likely that the killing angered Zhang Xiu and caused her to pursue her, especially in the confrontation with Huang Zu.


    If we don''t delay, we won''t be caught up.


    Liu Bei was alarmed. He looked at Zhuge Liang, who was also driving his horse to the side, and said, "military strategist, the situation is very unfavorable. In the current situation, what can we do to get rid of Zhang Xiu? Once caught up by Zhang Xiu, we will be in danger. "


    Zhuge Liang''s feather fan shook quickly. After thinking about it, he said: "Lord, if we stop to fight with Zhang Xiu now, it''s not good for us. So we have to keep on going. When we see narrow terrain or dense water network, we will leave some soldiers to stop us. Only in this way can we delay the speed of Zhang Xiu''s pursuit. "


    Guan Yu gritted his teeth and said, "simply, we''ll fight. Zhang Xiu also came from a long distance. It must be hard to travel a long way. We may not lose the battle with Zhang Xiu. "


    "No way!"


    Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "this risk must not be taken. Once we stay and fight with Zhang Xiu, we are entangled by Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu''s follow-up army arrives, we can''t get rid of Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Fei muttered: "it''s really troublesome. We''ve all retreated, but we''ve been chased by Zhang Xiu. In my opinion, we should leave some soldiers to stop us now. Elder brother, I am willing to stay behind and stop Zhang Xiu''s army from pursuing him. "


    "No way!"


    Liu Bei didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    If Zhang Fei is left behind, in case Zhang Fei is defeated and finally surrounded, won''t it make Zhang Fei in trouble?


    This is what Liu Bei does not want to see.


    Zhang Fei said: "this is not good, that is not good. What are you going to do? "


    At this moment, Zhang Fei is very impatient.


    Liu Bei and others also showed an anxious look on their faces, but their eyes fell on Zhuge Liang, hoping that Zhuge Liang would consider ways. But the problem is, now Zhuge Liang also feel thorny, sword eyebrow frown, look very dignified.

 Chapter 663

    Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "Lord, under the current situation. First, as the three generals said, they arranged the rear of the hall to stop Zhang Xiu''s pursuit; second, they continued to go on their way. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said, "I will continue to think about solutions and come up with solutions."


    "Herald, speed up the journey!"


    Liu Bei did not adopt this strategy and once again ordered to speed up the journey. But most of the soldiers under Liu Bei''s command are infantry. Even if the soldiers run for a long distance and have good physical fitness, they can''t bear it under such circumstances. After all, they can''t compete with their horses.


    Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are still getting closer.


    From more than ten li to eight Li, the distance between the two sides is less than six li.


    It''s quite dangerous.


    If no adjustment is made, Liu Bei''s army will soon be overtaken by Zhang Xiu.


    The expression on Zhuge Liang''s face was also extremely anxious and a little nervous. Fortunately, after he thought about it, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He thought of a way in his mind and quickly said, "my Lord, I have a plan to resolve my humble position."


    Liu Bei hoped to say: "how can the military strategist settle down?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "what we need to do is not complicated, or even simple. We just need to quickly break up the army into parts, divide it into many teams, and then quickly spread out and drive north along the road. In the end, we met in Yuzhou. In this way, Zhang Xiu saw that the soldiers were divided into multiple routes, so it was not easy to catch up. Breaking up the whole into parts is the only strategy today. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    "This is the best way," Liu Bei said, flashing a bright light in his eyes


    Immediately, Liu Bei said, "Yunchang, Yide and military strategist, follow me on your way. Then the soldiers in the army will be divided into ten groups, and they will advance separately. "


    "No!"


    Guan Yu shook his head and refused, saying: "brother, I lead the army alone. If I were with my brother, what would the generals think? In this way, they will be despised by the soldiers. As the chief General of the army, I lead the army alone. "


    Zhang Fei also opened his mouth and said, "elder brother, like my second brother, I also lead an army alone. Now, I can''t be a turtle. "


    Liu Bei said flatly, "no way!"


    He relied heavily on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. No matter how much his troops lost, as long as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang were there, no matter how many soldiers he lost, he would be able to revive his strength.


    This is Liu Bei''s strength.


    Zhuge Liang saw this, but he didn''t speak.


    When it comes to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang, in most cases, doesn''t get involved or express his opinions. Because Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are Liu Bei''s rebellious scale.


    The three brothers have been friends for more than ten years, and their brotherhood is no less than flesh and blood.


    Under such circumstances, Zhuge Liang will not make suggestions. Of course, in his view, it is natural that each leader is the most suitable. Only in this way can we really break the whole into parts.


    Guan Yu threw a pile of whiskers under his jaw and said: "brother, if you don''t agree, I won''t go. I''d rather stay here than be killed by Zhang Xiu. I can''t do anything special just because I''m the brother of my elder brother. In today''s situation, I am also a member of the army. I have to be the same as all soldiers, and even lead by example. "


    Zhang Fei also said: "elder brother, the second brother is right. As the leader, we should set an example. "


    "Alas..."


    When Liu Bei heard this, he was very helpless and ordered, "OK, you will lead each other."


    Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have smiles on their faces.


    Liu Bei dispatched troops quickly. Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhou Cang, sun Qian, Jian Yong and others led each army. Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei were one army. There were ten troops in total.


    Under such circumstances, each army has more than 2000 people.


    After the distribution of the troops, they sent out their own troops.


    More than 20000 people spread out at once. When they went to the north, they already spread out and left quickly. This situation was quickly found by the sentinel, and then spread to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu led Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and Wang Yue to pursue. He was surprised to hear the news that Liu Bei''s army was broken into parts. He did not expect Liu Bei to adopt such a strategy.


    In fact, such a strategy is also quite dangerous.


    It''s easy to be broken by each one.


    However, under the current situation, it is impossible to mobilize troops, and only the 10000 flying bear cavalry under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhang Xiu immediately made a decision that the army was scattered. He led 4000 elite cavalry, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun led 3000 elite cavalry respectively, and then pursued them all the way north.


    Zhang Xiubing pursued Liu Bei in three ways. He didn''t want to destroy Liu Bei, but at least he wanted to destroy Liu Bei''s army to the maximum extent and let Liu Bei know the consequences of his unauthorized involvement in the Jingzhou war.


    Zhang Xiu pursued quickly, and he followed one of them. In the pursuit of Zhang Xiu, his 4000 elite cavalry, running faster and faster, and the front army, closer and closer.Less than an hour, Zhang Xiu has caught up.


    Now, it''s almost time to declare time in the afternoon.


    After Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to catch up, he killed them for a while and defeated the soldiers of the other side. While fighting, Zhang Xiu found Liu Bei''s big flag in front of him, and his face showed a smile.


    Liu Bei''s banner is here!


    Prove that Liu Bei is here!


    For a moment, Zhang Xiu''s heart was excited. You know, Liu Bei is the absolute core. As long as you win Liu Bei, it''s easy to kill Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu orders loudly.


    The cavalry under his command quickly rushed to cover up and kill, and the distance between him and Liu Bei was getting closer and closer.


    At the front, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang led the troops to retreat, both of them with bitter faces. I didn''t expect to take the plan of breaking the whole into parts. In the end, the rest of the people didn''t meet Zhang Xiu. Instead, he was caught by Zhang Xiu.


    It''s over!


    Liu Bei sighed.


    When Liu Bei galloped his horse, he lost his heart and said, "I''m a drag on you, military adviser."


    Zhuge Liang also had a sad smile at the moment. On his handsome and elegant face, he was also lost. He is a very proud person, he does not want to submit to Zhang Xiu''s command, he wants to prove that he does not have to be inferior to Zhang Xiu.


    However, it didn''t work out as expected. Although I met Liu Bei, I was in danger now.


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord, it''s ok if you are serious! Only one battle ear


    In today''s situation, although Zhuge Liang is lost, he knows he can''t avoid it and can only choose the first World War.


    When Liu Bei heard this, he stopped his horse.


    "OK, let''s have a fight!"


    Liu Bei pulled out the double sword. Although his martial arts is not at the peak, his combat effectiveness is not weak. Liu Bei asked Zhuge to step back. Seeing that Zhang Xiu was carrying the overlord to kill him, he stabbed out the double sword in his hand.


    "Dang!"


    There was a piercing crash.


    The overlord gun struck on one of the double swords. Under the powerful impact, Liu Bei couldn''t hold the handle of the sword and was knocked out.


    Liu Bei just raised his sword in his right hand, but he had to resist it. The next moment, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung and swept away. With the power of thunder, it hit Liu Bei''s waist.


    "Bang!"


    A dull noise came out.


    Liu Bei couldn''t bear the force, so his body flew upside down. He even heard the sound of the broken drum at his waist. Under the impact of that force, his blood was churning and his mouth was spraying blood.


    Boom!!


    Liu Bei''s body fell to the ground.


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s whole body seemed to be in great pain. Seeing that Zhang Xiu had been shot, he sighed: "my life is over!"


    "Zhang Xiu, don''t hurt my elder brother."


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from not far away. But he saw a big and strong figure, and killed him when he rode. The man who came was not others, but Zhang Fei.

 Chapter 664

    Zhang Fei''s more than 2000 soldiers also entered the battlefield. For a time, Liu Bei''s forces into a new force, at least for a short time, is to stabilize the situation, temporarily resist the killing of Zhang Xiu''s cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu sees Zhang Xiu intervene, some accident.


    I didn''t expect Zhang Fei to come.


    Isn''t it a division?


    However, Zhang Xiu did not stop, Overlord gun again, and Zhang Fei a fight, both sides retreat.


    Zhang Fei walked up to Liu Bei quickly. As soon as he took the knife, he hit Liu Bei on the back of the head and knocked Liu Bei unconscious. He said, "ZHUGE, I''ll give it to you. Now, you all retreat, and I''ll take care of the next war. "


    His eyes were full of war.


    This time, Zhang Fei gave up.


    Even if he died, he would leave Liu Bei a way to live.


    Zhuge Liang was surprised and said, "general three, why are you around here?"


    "I''m worried about my brother''s safety, so I''ve been retreating nearby," Zhang said. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu really killed her. Don''t say it. Hurry to retreat. I can''t stop Zhang Xiu for a long time. "


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes were surprised. He didn''t expect that Zhang Fei seemed rough, but his mind was so delicate.


    "Three generals, take care!"


    Zhuge Liang knew what Zhang Fei meant and didn''t delay. He asked the soldiers to put Liu Bei on the horse and then ordered the retreat. This time, Zhuge Liang was surrounded by only a hundred soldiers, no more. The rest of the soldiers stayed with Zhang Fei to fight.


    Zhang Fei''s Zhangba snake spear raised and pointed to Zhang Xiu from a distance. He roared: "sons, fight to death today. I, Zhang Fei, will fight to the end with you. Those who are willing to fight to the death will come to me and fight to the death with me. Those who do not want to fight to the death will stand back. "


    "Fight to the death!"


    One by one soldiers, shouting.


    Most of these soldiers fought with Liu Bei for many years.


    And there are Yuzhou soldiers.


    As for the newly recruited soldiers in Jingzhou, they did not have a strong sense of attachment to Liu Biao, so some of them retreated to the back. But only the remaining 4000 troops, but nearly 3000 people, gathered around Zhang Fei.


    Every soldier has a strong will to fight.


    Everyone, prepare to die.


    Zhang Fei clenched the overlord gun in his hand and roared: "Zhang Xiu child, today, your grandfather Zhang will fight with you to the end."


    "Kill


    Zhang Fei roared and rode out.


    The udrama in his crotch was very much in command, and Herod burst out with a hiss. When Zhang Fei rushed out, his 3000 soldiers also joined in the battlefield to attack Zhang Xiu and his cavalry.


    Zhang Xiu did not go to catch up with Liu Bei, because in the current situation, a catch-up will certainly be blocked, simply directly solve the immediate Zhang Xiu, take Zhang Xiu first.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu also gave an order.


    With this order issued, Zhang Xiu carrying the overlord gun, quickly killed up.


    The two sides are facing each other, and in the twinkling of an eye, they have already met.


    Bawang gun and Zhangba snake spear collided with each other. Under the violent shock, even Zhang Xiu could not help but step back. And Zhang Fei couldn''t bear it. Utrimahilv stepped back in his crotch and took three consecutive steps to stabilize his figure.


    Zhang Fei''s palm was numb, but he immediately grasped Zhang BA''s snake spear and attacked Zhang Xiu again. Under the fierce attack of Zhang Xiu, he fought with Zhang Xiu one after another.


    Two people fight, Zhang Fei resist.


    Ten moves!


    Twenty moves!


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was 30 moves since they fought each other. Zhang Fei held the palm of Zhang BA''s snake spear, and his hands were stained with blood. But from the beginning to the end, he held Zhang BA''s snake spear to fight.


    Zhang Xiu attacked and said: "Zhang Fei, you can''t stop me. Surrender now, and I''ll save your life. "


    "I don''t need your pity. Kill


    Zhang Fei was fighting for his life. Even though his breath began to be disordered and his hands holding Zhang BA''s snake spear were bloody, Zhang Fei never stepped back from the beginning to the end.


    He has only one faith.


    Stop Zhang Xiu!


    At least hold Zhang Xiu''s pace.


    When Zhang Fei insisted, his soldiers also launched an attack. These veterans under Liu Bei, even in the face of the slaughter of cavalry, even if the loss is heavy, still choose to fight to the death.


    Originally, more than 1000 soldiers were hiding in the rear. They did not take part in the war and did not want to die. But gradually, but someone quickly killed, joined the battlefield, unwilling to be a coward.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and saw that more than 2000 cavalry under her command had been held back and increased the strength of the attack. In fact, he had gone all out now.


    Just fierce and overbearing power, surging like waves.


    But in front of Zhang Fei, just like the pine, from beginning to end, still. Even though Zhang Fei was already on the verge of collapse, he never fell down.After a hundred moves, the two have already fought.


    Zhang Fei''s mouth was full of blood, his arms were trembling, and his breath was even faster. His speed of waving Zhang BA''s snake spear also slowed down.


    His speed is getting slower and slower.


    Power has also been sharply weakened.


    I can''t stop it!


    Zhang Fei''s heart, is also such a sigh, but he thought of Liu Bei may not go far, the bottom of his heart, and then poured out strength, once again support Zhang Fei''s resistance.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Fei who resisted, and there was a look of admiration in her eyes.


    What kind of strength is this to support Zhang Fei''s fight to the present. You know, after more than ten moves of Zhang Xiu and Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei''s palm was already injured, and the tiger''s mouth was completely torn. But now, even Zhang Xiu herself, do not know how many moves to fight, but Zhang Fei is still gritting his teeth to resist.


    This is true of Zhang Fei, and so are his soldiers.


    Under the cover of cavalry, Zhang Fei''s soldiers were killed and injured more and more. In the end, there were less than 1000 people. But it was such a soldier who dared to charge the cavalry.


    Fight to the death!


    This is the fighting spirit of Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    All this came from Zhang Fei. If Zhang Fei didn''t fight to the end, if Zhang Fei had withdrawn early, these soldiers would have been deserters and would not have insisted so much.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say that he would surrender Zhang Fei. He already knew Zhang Fei''s character. Zhang Xiu just accelerated the attack, in the hand overlord gun unceasing attack.


    After the two men fought each other, they drove their horses apart.


    Zhang Fei gasped, his hand holding Zhang BA''s snake spear was shaking. With blood in the corner of his mouth, he looked up at Zhang Xiu and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, you have never been a killer from the beginning to the end. You''re doing this to capture me alive. And then, like dealing with Yuan Shao, use me to deal with my elder brother, right? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and a fine light flashed in her eyes.


    Zhang Fei is not stupid!


    Zhang Xiu really wants to capture Zhang Fei alive. Even if Zhang Xiu does not surrender, he wants to capture Zhang Fei alive. As long as there is Zhang Fei in hand, it is extremely easy to deal with Liu Bei, and Liu Bei will be hindered.


    The living Zhang Fei has a higher value.


    It''s Zhang Xiu who wants to capture Zhang Fei alive, so even if she attacks with all her strength, she hasn''t taken Zhang Fei completely. If it is desperate to kill Zhang Fei as the goal, Zhang Xiu should have won.


    Zhang Fei gritted his teeth and said, "when I was in Yuzhou, I heard that you arrested Yuan Shao''s son, which made Yuan Shao extremely embarrassed. Ha ha ha, Zhang Xiu, it''s impossible for you to do the same thing again. It''s impossible to capture Zhang Fei alive. I, Zhang Fei, would rather die standing than live kneeling. "


    "Kill


    Zhang Fei roars and grasps Zhang BA''s snake spear again. He kills Zhang Xiu again.


    He would rather be killed than surrender.


    He would rather be killed than captured.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Zhang Fei who is killed, and a sneer rises from the corner of her mouth. Zhang Fei is not willing to surrender or be a prisoner. He wants to capture Zhang Fei alive and control him.

 Chapter 665

    "Dang! Dang! "


    The continuous impact of weapons, the sound of eardrum shock pain, resounding in the air. With each impact, Zhang Fei felt as if his arms had been destroyed, and even felt that his bones were about to tear.


    After two people fight, Zhang Fei''s breath is more rapid, especially the blood churning, he can''t suppress the blood gas in the chest, open mouth wow, spit out a mouthful of blood.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Zhang Fei''s voice was even more urgent.


    His whole breath, has been extremely depressed, difficult to maintain. On his forehead, there are bean sized beads of sweat, constantly penetrating out, the whole person''s back, has been wet with sweat.


    When he breathed, it seemed that his voice had an echo, and even felt like the sound of a bellows.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu, Zhang Fei grinned.


    It''s worth it!


    It''s worth fighting against Zhang Xiu!


    Expect, elder brother should escape far, affirmation won''t be chased by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Fei suddenly took a breath, he looked at Zhang Xiu, the heart has made a decision. Regardless of the bloody arm, Zhang Fei raises his eight snake spears, kicks the horse''s belly, and the wuzhui horse rushes out again and goes straight to Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    The cry came from Zhang Fei''s mouth.


    He killed Zhang Xiu with Zhang BA''s snake spear. At the same time, Zhang Xiu also killed her. The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer. When Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun comes out and stabs him, Zhang Fei suddenly withdraws and moves forward.


    The pupil in Zhang Xiu''s eyes shrank.


    Zhang Fei, this is to die!


    He stabbed out of the overlord gun has not been pulled back, once pulled back to change move, maybe Zhang Fei may temporarily attack again. So Zhang Xiu shot forward, but the position of the tip of the gun deflected.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun easily penetrated the armor in front of Zhang Fei''s body and penetrated three inches above his left chest and heart.


    The blood spattered out immediately.


    When Zhang Xiu''s long gun was drawn out, there was more blood on the top of Zhang Fei''s heart, just like a spring, which was directly sprayed out.


    Bang Dang!


    Zhang Fei''s Zhangba snake spear fell to the ground.


    Zhang Fei''s mind was invaded by endless chaos of consciousness. He was dizzy for a while. His eyes gradually lost their look. His body shook and he fell down. At this moment, Zhang Fei still had consciousness in his mind.


    Are you going to die?


    Dead or not!


    Zhang Fei has such an idea in his mind, because he really can''t stick to it. He can persist until now, all by his own consciousness, now a string in his brain is released, he can no longer persist, suddenly fell to the ground. Zhang Fei thought he was dead, but in fact, although he was injured, he just took off and fainted.


    Zhang Xiu sees this scene, the corner of her mouth raises a smile.


    He looks forward to the moment when Zhang Fei wakes up.


    "Come on, take Zhang Fei down!"


    Zhang Xiu directly ordered that a cavalry under her command step forward and quickly catch Zhang Fei. After the soldiers took Zhang Fei, they raced back and forth again, slaughtering Liu Bei''s soldiers and calling for surrender.


    These soldiers thought that Zhang Fei had been killed.


    So, one by one, it turned out to be a fight to the death.


    Few surrender.


    It took nearly half an hour for the war here to come to an end.


    Zhang Xiu looked up at the direction of Liu Bei''s retreat. Now more than half an hour has passed, and Liu Bei is one of the few people who are on the way. She can take the path, and it is not easy to track.


    After cleaning up the battlefield, Zhang Xiu ordered to withdraw.


    This time, Zhang Xiu went straight to Xiling county.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Xiling County, the news came that Huang Zu and Huang she had been killed. Officials in Jiangxia county were in a short period of panic, but there was no turbulence. After all, Zhang Xiu''s army was there.


    In the barracks, Zhang Xiu stationed directly, and then waited for the troops to return.


    Before that, Zhang Fei woke up.


    As soon as Zhang Fei wakes up, the soldiers come to inform him immediately. Zhang Xiu goes straight to the camp where Zhang Fei is resting. Looking at Zhang Fei lying on the bed, he feels pain all over. He says with a smile, "Zhang Fei, you are still the prisoner of our officer."


    Zhang Fei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, your plan can''t succeed. If you can prevent me for a while, can you prevent me for a lifetime. I''m too weak to move. When I recover, I will commit suicide. "


    "Suicide?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "if you want to commit suicide, I won''t stop you. After all, you don''t want to see Liu Bei. Why stop you? I don''t want to abandon your feelings. I don''t want to die first. If you want to commit suicide, it''s up to you! If you commit suicide, I will give your body to Liu Bei. "


    Zhang Fei was dumb.


    Suicide!


    It''s easy to say, but difficult to do.


    Zhang Fei wants to die!


    Because he didn''t want to restrain Liu Bei.Zhang Fei doesn''t want to die!


    Because he is not willing to leave Liu Bei, he can not let go of this brotherhood.


    Zhang Xiu stared at Zhang Fei''s manner and continued: "it''s easy to die, but in fact, it''s the most difficult thing to live. If you survive, you may still have hope to realize your brotherhood. What if I lose to Liu Bei? "


    Zhang Fei bites his teeth and stares at Zhang Xiu. His eyes are eager to devour Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "in a word, it''s up to you whether you commit suicide or not."


    With that, Zhang Xiu turned and left.


    Zhang Fei stares at Zhang Xiu''s back and bites her teeth, but she sighs dejectedly. He didn''t want to kill himself. Is not afraid of death, is reluctant to give up this life brother, in the heart has more concern.


    "Big brother, second brother, are you ok?"


    Zhang Fei murmured to himself with a worried look on his face.


    After Zhang Xiu left the camp, she told the soldiers to keep Zhang Fei in custody. Once Zhang Fei recovered a little, she had to be held in iron lock to avoid Zhang Fei''s escape. Zhang Xiu doesn''t hold hands and feet in the hands of ordinary literati, but Zhang Fei is different. This man is too good at martial arts. Once he doesn''t restrain himself, if Zhang Fei can take advantage of him, it''s not good.


    Zhang Xiu goes back to the army tent and waits quietly.


    As time went by, Ma Chao came back first in the evening. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Lord, we caught up with Liu Bei''s infantry, killed more than 1000 people, captured more than 600 people, and the rest fled. Unfortunately, I didn''t meet Liu Bei. "


    Zhang xiudao: "hard work, go to rest."


    "Here it is


    Ma Chao turned around and stepped down.


    Soon after, Zhao Yun returned and arrived with Huang Zhong''s army. Although Huang Zhong led the infantry, Huang Zhong''s infantry were on their way fast. After nearly half a day, he also arrived in Xiling county.


    After the army gathered, Zhang Xiu gathered Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Sima Yi and others together, counted the results of the battle, and then said: "although Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu fled in this battle, I captured Zhang Fei along the way. It''s very helpful for us to have Zhang Fei as a hostage. "


    When they heard this, they were all excited.


    Liu Bei''s hypocrisy is ultimately brotherhood. With Zhang Fei in hand, it is easier to intimidate Liu Bei.


    This is the most difficult choice.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Huang Zu and his son led the army to resist and were killed by Liu Bei. Now, there are no people in Jiangxia. I would like Huang Zhong to take over the post of Jiangxia prefect and supervise the military and political affairs of Jiangxia. I will inform Xu Shu and arrange an official Jiangxia County as soon as possible. In addition, Huang Zhongsuo led the flying bear army and stationed in Xiling county to guard against the attack of Sunce in Jiangdong. In addition, we took over Jiang Xia''s water army and began to train it. This time, we didn''t fight sun CE much. But in fact, when it comes time to attack Jiangdong, a water war is inevitable. Therefore, it is necessary to train the Navy more. To prepare for the future attack on Jiangdong. "


    "I''ll do it


    Without any hesitation, Huang Zhong responded directly.


    On the one hand, it is to resist the attack from Jiangdong; on the other hand, it is to prepare for the future.


    Zhang Xiu also arranged the rest of the matters, just let everyone down to rest.


    At the border of Xiling County, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu joined together, and even the rest of the soldiers joined one after another. Originally, after Liu Bei ordered his soldiers to break up into parts, they retreated separately.


    At that time, there were more than 20000 soldiers.


    But now only 12000 soldiers have returned.


    The rest of the soldiers didn''t come back.


    What worries Liu Bei most is that Zhang Fei never comes back.


    When Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei''s anxious look, he sighed in his heart. At that time, in order to protect Liu Bei, Zhang Fei stepped back and made a decisive decision. It must have been a lot of bad luck.


    Zhuge Liang also admired Zhang Fei and was willing to defend Liu Bei''s retreat with his own life at the moment of life and death. Such brotherhood is beyond the reach of ordinary people.


    Guan Yu advised: "brother, we must retreat as soon as possible now. Go back to Yuzhou first. When you get back to Yuzhou, send someone to inquire about the third brother. "


    Liu Bei had tears in his eyes and said, "if it wasn''t for saving me, how could the third brother stay? At that time, the third younger brother must have known that I would not retreat, so he knocked me out and let the Division retreat. Third brother, third brother... "


    At this moment, Liu Bei wailed.


    The tears of management came from Liu Bei''s eyes, crossed his cheek and wet his chest.


    Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and others were silent.


    Guan Yu said: "elder brother, the third brother died in person, just to protect our retreat. If you are still staying at the border now, if you are caught up by Zhang Xiu''s army, you will fail the third brother. I believe that the third brother will be OK. Let''s retreat and go back to Runan County to find out more about the third brother. "


    Zhuge Liang also advised: "Lord, it can only be like this now."


    A crowd, one after another to persuade.


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and looked at the direction of Xiling county. He said, "third brother, I will save you. You wait for me!""Withdraw


    Liu Bei''s big sleeve flicked and gave the order.


    The army set out, retreated quickly, and went to Yuzhou.

 Chapter 666

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu then led the army to leave.


    This time, Zhang Xiu left Jiangxia with no more than 1000 soldiers, all of whom were infantry. The rest of the Feixiong soldiers stayed in Jiangxia, so that Huang Zhong could control the situation in Jiangxia.


    When Zhang Xiu left Jiangxia for Xiangyang, Jingzhou, the news of Liu Biao''s death had already spread to Xiangyang.


    All over Xiangyang, the same two pieces of news were spread, that is, sun CE ambushed Liu Biao in hulugu, so that Liu Biao and 30000 elite soldiers all died in hulugu.


    The second news is that Liu Bei watched Liu Biao killed, but did not go to the rescue, resulting in Liu Biao''s tragic death. Zhang Xiu was at the front line at that time. Even if she found sun CE ambushing Liu Biao, it was too late for rescue.


    It''s widely spread news.


    When Kuai Yue heard the news, he began to laugh.


    It''s done!


    If Liu Biao dies in Lujiang County, Jingzhou will become the treasure of Zhang Xiu.


    When Kuai Yue was thinking about what to do, a letter had been sent to Kuai Liang, the Kuai family.


    This is sent by the royal guards arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    In the letter, there is the specific situation of the Lujiang war, which has not changed. It elaborates in detail how Zhang Xiu planned to deal with Liu Biao and Liu Bei, but Rao is so. The content of the letter also defines Liu Biao as sun CE''s death.


    That''s it.


    After Kuai Liang saw it, he was also filled with emotion that Zhang Xiu''s strategy, taking advantage of Gu Yong''s breakthrough, was successful. After reading the news, Kuai Liang quickly called Kuai Yue back and asked someone to inform Cai maolai.


    Now Xiangyang City, mainly these two families.


    Although there are people in the Pang family and the Huang family, in fact, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan have already gone to Chang''an Academy in the north of China, so it is mainly the Kuai family and the Cai family who decide.


    When Kuai Yue and Cai Mao returned, Kuai Liang looked at them and said, "the Lord has sent back the letter. He is on his way back to Xiangyang. The Lord wants us to take the lead in controlling the situation in Jingzhou. What do you think of this? "


    Cai Mao was full of happiness at this time.


    Thanks to his early and Zhang Xiu resolve the fight, and even secretly submit to Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, Liu Biao will die, and he will have no chance to work.


    Cai Mao said, "zirou, what else do you think about this? Naturally, you and I are the ones who directly lead the officials of Jingzhou to join Taiwei and ask Taiwei to take charge of Jingzhou."


    "Not right!"


    Kuai Yue shook his head and answered.


    Cai Mao said, "what should I do, you say?"


    Kuai Yue said in a deep voice: "in my opinion, we should unite to support Liu Qi to take over the post of Jingzhou herdsman. Then, when the Lord arrives, let Liu Qi take the initiative to submit to him. In this way, the name is right and no one can say anything. "


    Cai Mao brightened his eyes and said with a smile, "good way. It''s a good way."


    Kuai Liang stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "I also agree with the second younger brother''s suggestion. In that case, I will follow this method. Now all the troops in Jingzhou are destroyed at the front line. Our strength is enough to make Liu Qi obedient. "


    Kuai Yue said: "if so, then act."


    Cai Mao said: "we should act by ourselves."


    No matter Kuai Yue or Cai Mao, they are all in high spirits. Because Jingzhou has been struggling for such a long time, it can finally submit to Zhang Xiu.


    But Kuai Liang didn''t show up. Kuai Yue and Cai Mao mobilized civil and military generals. In fact, most of the officials who stay in Xiangyang now have certain relations with the Kuai family and Cai family, and they all listen to their opinions. As for the rest, those who saw that the situation was not good and didn''t refuse all went along with the trend.


    After the party arrived at the prefecture, Liu Qi and Liu Cong came to the hall.


    Liu Qi at the moment, some panic.


    Liu Cong is even more unbearable.


    After all, Liu Qi and Liu Cong are not very old. They have never experienced waves or major wars. When they suddenly heard that Liu Biao was dead and all the officials under their command came, they were all in a panic.


    Liu Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, forced himself to keep calm, said: "all together, why?"


    Cai Mao stood up and said, "young master, now the Lord has died at the hands of sun CE. Jingzhou has no leader. After our discussion, we sincerely ask the eldest son to step forward and succeed Jingzhou animal husbandry to stabilize the situation. "


    When Liu Qi heard this, she was overjoyed.


    He was surprised.


    Originally thought that Cai Mao and Kuai Liang and others are to coerce him, but unexpectedly, let him take over Jingzhou animal husbandry.


    For a moment, Liu Qi was very happy.


    You know, his father Liu Biao always liked Liu Cong and wanted Liu Cong to take over the post of Jingzhou herdsman. Now, such a good thing falls on him, which makes Liu Qi very happy.


    When Liu Cong heard this, he was very dissatisfied, but now without his father''s support, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others all stood beside Liu Qi, and he had no way to object, because there was no one to support him.What''s more, the military and government are in the hands of CAI Mao, Kuai Yue and others.


    When Liu Biao died, Cai Mao directly took over the few troops in Xiangyang, while Kuai Yue dealt with government affairs. When these two men were together, they completely won the military and political affairs.


    Liu Qi took a deep breath and said, "I will take over the post of Jingzhou herdsman from now on, according to the Duke."


    "Immediately, Cai Mao said


    "Yes


    Cai Mao arched his hand and answered.


    Liu Qi said in a deep voice: "you are in charge of the military affairs, immediately recruit soldiers, and then close the four corners of the city gate. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Next, Zhang Xiu is bound to return to Xiangyang. We don''t fight with Zhang Xiu. We just need him to leave Jingzhou. We''re going to take a defensive strategy


    As soon as the words came out, some laughter came out in the hall.


    Even when Cai Mao heard this, he was still joking. He didn''t expect that Liu Qi was really holding a chicken feather arrow and would resist Zhang Xiu as soon as he took office.


    Liu Qi noticed something wrong and said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Cai Mao stepped forward and said, "my dear nephew, what they are laughing at is that you are too arrogant. Even your father Liu Biao can''t resist Zhang Taiwei, let alone you. Now you are working as a herdsman in Jingzhou. When Taiwei Zhang arrives, you have to hand in the seal and submit to him. "


    Brush!


    Liu Qi''s face changed greatly.


    Unexpectedly, it was like this. It was to make him surrender as a herdsman in Jingzhou.


    "No, I will never agree."


    Liu Qi eyes flashing anger, said: "Jingzhou is not Zhang Xiu''s Jingzhou, is my father''s Jingzhou."


    "Wrong!"


    Kuai Liang stood up and said, "Jingzhou is not Liu Biao''s Jingzhou, but the Han''s Jingzhou. Zhang Taiwei, as a Taiwei, is in charge of Jingzhou. That''s a matter of course. "


    Cai Mao continued: "nephew, there is no room for discussion. If you don''t want to, then you can only send you to see Liu Biao, and then let Liu Cong come to submit. Do you want to die? "


    Kick! Kick!


    Liu Qi was scared back two steps, his face was full of panic.


    He was afraid.


    A person who had never experienced war and had never seen blood suddenly saw such a scene. He was terrified and said: "I, I, I agree, I am willing to submit to Zhang Xiu."


    Cai Mao said, "that''s good. Obedience is good."

 Chapter 667

    Liu Qi''s mind is in a mess. He doesn''t even know how he survived. After everyone left, he sat down on the throne, and Liu Qi also sat down.


    When Liu Qi recovered, he looked at Liu Cong sitting at the bottom and said, "second brother, what''s the situation like now?"


    Liu Cong shrugged and said, "what can I do? Even my father is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Besides, what about us? In today''s situation, I''m afraid we can only surrender. What else can we do if we don''t conform. "


    Compared with Liu Qi, Liu Cong is more cowardly.


    Liu Cong even said: "in fact, if you think about it, it''s not bad to submit to Zhang Xiu. It''s good to be a rich man. "


    "You, you..."


    After hearing this, Liu Qi said angrily, "you are in vain to be Liu''s son. It is said that sun CE killed your father. We really have a deep hatred with sun CE, but I always feel that Zhang Xiu''s plan must be his own. "


    Liu Cong said, "if you have a way, you can deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Qi was even more furious.


    As he rolled his eyes, he suddenly thought of CAI, his stepmother Cai, who came from the Cai family. If CAI can convince Cai Mao, as long as Cai Mao stands on his side, he will have a chance.


    Liu Qi hummed. Without taking charge of Liu Cong, she got up and went to the back yard to see CAI. He immediately talked about CAI Mao''s and Kuai Liang''s transgression and said, "mother, now my Liu family''s foundation depends on the Cai family. As long as his mother persuades his uncle to take control of the army and Xiangyang City. With the help of Xiangyang''s defense, we are able to resist Zhang Xiu. "


    Cai sighed: "but Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with."


    Liu Qi said: "mother, if you are in Jingzhou, you can do whatever you want. There are all kinds of delicacies and treasures. But if we surrender to Zhang Xiu, our family will become a cage bird of Zhang Xiu. At that time, there will be no chance. Does mother really want to be a cage bird without any of her own


    Although Liu Qi is afraid, but Liu Qi is not reconciled.


    Now he took over the seal of Jingzhou animal husbandry and became Jingzhou animal husbandry. However, Liu Qi is unwilling to let him hand over the seal ribbon to Zhang Xiu and give up his right.


    Cai frowned and worried.


    Liu Qi continued: "my father died and my mother was alone. If you become a cage bird, you can bully your mother. But as long as we are in Jingzhou, mother can be relaxed and comfortable. Even the Cai family continued to be the largest family in Jingzhou. But after Zhang Xiu took over Jingzhou, even if her uncle turned to Zhang Xiu, the Cai family could not be the only one. "


    Cai''s wisdom is not great, but he is moved by Liu Qi''s words.


    What she cares about is her own good.


    What she cares about is the power of the Cai family.


    Cai said in a deep voice, "but I''m not sure if I can ask your uncle to help you."


    After hearing this, Liu Qi had a happy look on her face and said, "when it comes to persuading my uncle, my mother just needs to be present. I''ll persuade him myself. Mother, you just need to arrange for someone to invite your uncle to the mansion. It''s too obvious to let uncle come now. It''s easy to scare the snake. You can tell your uncle to come back after dark. "


    "Good!"


    Cai agreed.


    Liu Qi stopped staying and turned to leave. When he walked out of CAI''s yard, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes. As long as Cai Mao arrived at the prefecture, if he was willing to cooperate, it would be fine.


    If Cai Mao is not willing to cooperate, he should get rid of CAI Mao first and try to take over the army directly.


    Although Liu Qi is still afraid in his heart, he has no choice, because he is not willing to submit to Zhang Xiu, and even less willing to hand over power, which forces Liu Qi to do so.


    Cai arranged for someone to inform him. When the servant arrived at the house, he met Cai Mao and said what he wanted.


    When Cai Mao heard this, he thought about it in his heart.


    It''s interesting.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Qi wants to see him specially. It is obvious that Liu Qi still has plans and wants to compete with Zhang Xiu. For Liu Qi, Cai Mao doesn''t look up to him. Even Liu Biao is not Zhang Xiu''s rival, let alone Liu Qi.


    However, Cai Mao did not refuse and agreed directly. Cai Mao thought that there were still some things related to welcoming Zhang Xiu, so he went to the Kuai family in person and worked out a plan with the Kuai family and Kuai Yue.


    Finally, Cai Mao talked about going to the prefecture.


    When Kuai Liang heard this, he said, "De Li, are you going to the prefecture


    "Yes


    Cai Mao nodded and answered.


    Kuai Liang stroked his beard and said with a smile, "if you want to go to the prefecture, I won''t stop you. But you have to be careful. If Liu Qi takes risks, he will send his servants to besiege you. With your martial arts, you may not be able to stop it. "


    Cai Mao laughed and said, "I''ve already considered brother zirou''s consideration. Liu Qi is supposed to make a final counterattack. If I refuse, he must want to take me first and take control of the army. "


    After a pause, Cai Mao said: "in fact, where does he have such an opportunity. What''s more, on the day of Liu Biao''s departure, the servants of the family have changed, and they have become our people. Even if Liu Qi ordered, he could not mobilize people. In addition, I will also take a team of relatives with me"That''s good!"


    Kuai Liang said with a smile, "I''m looking forward to your results in the evening."


    Cai Mao laughed. He didn''t say much, so he got up to leave. When he got back to his house, he took a carriage to leave after dark. Now it''s nearly November. It''s cold and windy. It''s very cold.


    Cai Mao also put on a thick cotton padded robe and sat in the carriage. When he arrived at the prefecture, he got out of the carriage and entered with a group of guards. Cai Mao''s personal guard, there are more than ten people, all about escort.


    This is a precaution.


    What if there are other people in the prefecture?


    When Cai Mao arrived in the hall, Liu Qi and Cai Shi had been waiting for a long time.


    Liu Qi was supposed to propose a toast, but when he was ready to propose a toast, Cai Mao refused directly, saying, "what''s the matter with Zhou mu? Just say it directly. There''s no need to beat around the bush."


    Liu Qi frowned. Cai Mao didn''t give him any face at all, but he asked Cai Mao and said, "uncle, nephew means that it''s not cost-effective for our family to submit to Zhang Xiu."


    "If our family controls Jingzhou, we are free in Jingzhou. Why should we submit to Zhang Xiu? My nephew means that my uncle will lead the army and destroy the Kuai family. "


    "Then, seal off the four gates, and we will garrison with the help of Xiangyang City."


    Liu Qi said: "even if Zhang Xiu is strong, Xiangyang City is strong and has a moat. Even if Zhang Xiu had tens of thousands of troops, she could not win Xiangyang. In addition, we can also call on the four prefectures to set up troops to rescue. "


    "No use!"


    Cai Mao directly shook his head and refused, saying, "your little trick is like a joke. Liu Qi, don''t mess about. The more you toss, the more you lose in the end. If you want to hold your life, be obedient. During the day, I''ve already said that if you want to toss, you will be killed. "


    "Uncle, are you really unwilling to help me?"


    Liu Qi''s eyes are full of killing intention. He wanted to be nice and discuss with CAI Mao, but Cai Mao refused. Under such circumstances, Liu Qi directly threatened.


    Cai Mao sneered: "you''re a fool. You''re not worth my service."


    "Somebody


    Liu Qi gave a big drink.


    In a flash, a black clad swordsman quickly came forward and surrounded Cai Mao.


    Liu Qi face with confidence and calm expression, coldly said: "uncle, if you don''t want to, don''t blame me."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Cai Mao laughed.


    Liu Qi said, "what are you laughing at?"


    After half a sound, Cai Mao stopped laughing and waved. In a flash, all the people in black who had just entered the hall withdrew from the hall and hid one by one.


    This scene, let Liu Qi stare big eyes.


    How is that possible?


    Why do all the private soldiers in your family listen to Cai Mao.


    Cai Mao stood up and came to Liu Qi. As soon as he reached out, he grabbed Liu Qi''s clothes and said, "do you see that? With your ability, you want to deal with me. It''s too weak. Also want to deal with Zhang Taiwei, you are a waste. Be obedient, or you will die. "


    He pushed hard, Liu Qi fell to the ground, his face looked stunned, unable to recover for a long time.


    Cai Mao looked at Cai Shi, warned him again, then turned and left.


    Liu Qi looks at Cai Mao''s back and despair. Even the private soldiers in his family have completely surrendered to Zhang Xiu. He has no chance any more.


    The Liu family is over!

 Chapter 668

    It''s getting colder in December. Xiangyang City people, rarely go out, most are hiding at home, closed. And in the snow, there is a team of soldiers, quickly to Xiangyang City.


    The leader is Zhang Xiu.


    He led a thousand guards to Xiangyang City.


    At the same time, Liu Qi, Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and others at the east gate of Xiangyang City were all wearing cloaks, braved the cold and snow, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s arrival.


    Liu Qi''s face was livid and unhappy.


    In fact, the reason is very simple. As soon as Zhang Xiu arrives, he has to hand in yinshou and surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    This is what he is unwilling to do, but there is nothing he can do.


    Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and Kuai Liang stood aside, looking calm, because with the help of several families, the overall situation has been decided, and there can be no more changes. Now, they just need to wait for Zhang Xiu to arrive.


    "Here it is


    In the crowd, someone suddenly called out.


    With this cry, people have widened their eyes and looked forward one by one. I saw a black line on the official road far away from the east gate. A group of people were approaching quickly.


    Zhang Xiu''s army has arrived.


    For a moment, everyone was excited and excited.


    Liu Qi saw this scene, a heart is sinking, Jingzhou civil and military generals, that is the case, where does he have any way? We can only accept the current situation.


    With the distance getting closer, we could see the troops coming soon.


    Kuai Liang was the leader. He looked at Liu Qi and said, "Mr. Zhou mu, Zhang Taiwei has arrived. It''s time to meet him."


    Liu Qi didn''t move.


    As if I didn''t hear it.


    With a look of disdain in the corner of his mouth, Kuai Liang nodded to Cai Mao. Then he saw that Cai Mao stepped out and walked out with Liu Qi. He knows about Liu Qi''s plot against Cai Mao.


    On weekdays, Liu Qi, who had always been a coward, had the courage to gather his family''s servants to ambush Cai Mao. He was a little brave. Unfortunately, I met Cai Mao, who had long been overhead in the prefecture.


    If Liu Biao is in Xiangyang, Cai Mao can''t fly over the prefecture and can''t change the servants of the prefecture. But when Liu Biao leaves Xiangyang and dies on the battlefield, Cai Mao can fly over the prefecture. It''s easy.


    Liu Qi wants to struggle, but can''t break free.


    Although Cai Mao is not a powerful general, Liu Qi''s strength is not enough for Cai Mao.


    When he went out for forty steps, he joined Zhang Xiu.


    Kuai Liang, Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and others all salute Zhang Xiu. Liu Qi takes the seal ribbon from his servant''s hand, holds it in his hands, and walks up to Zhang Xiu. He raises the seal ribbon in his hand, and his voice is hoarse. He says, "Liu Qi, I''d like to submit to Zhang Taiwei, please accept it."


    Without hesitation, Zhang Xiu took the seal ribbon and handed it to the soldiers beside her. Then she said, "Liu Qi, you and I are still relatives. You are willing to surrender. I will treat you well. I''ll appoint you as a counsellor and then go to Chang''an. "


    Remonstrate doctor, this is a honest and upright official, unimportant.


    It''s like Liu Qi is idle.


    Is Liu Qi in the heart unusual exasperation, but Liu Qi also has no way. Now, if Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill him, it''s already treating him well and giving him enough opportunities.


    Liu Qi took a deep breath and suppressed her inner emotion, saying: "thank you, Tai Wei!"


    "Enter the city!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, and everyone joined hands to enter the city.


    As soon as he entered the city, he went straight to the prefecture. The 1000 soldiers accompanying him were escorted around the prefecture.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the people under her command and said, "I am very glad that you are willing to submit to me. With your help, I believe that Jingzhou will be better and better. "


    The crowd echoed.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said: "Jingzhou, as a southern barrier, is of great importance. Although Huang Zhong was arranged to sit in Zhenjiang Xiajun and temporarily lead Jiangxia prefect to resist the threat from Jiangdong. But there must be a lot of people in Jingzhou. "


    As soon as the words came out, all the people became active.


    Who will be the governor of Jingzhou?


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Kuai Liang and said, "Kuai Liang!"


    "Yes


    Kuai Liang stood up and saluted back.


    At the moment, Kuai Liang was also excited. He was the first one to take a fancy to Zhang Xiu. At the end of Zhang Xiu, he saw the potential of Zhang Xiu. Then he resigned as a sick man and no longer planned for Liu Biao. Instead, he planned for Zhang Xiu in Xiangyang.


    For example, Pang Tong and Xu Shu, who followed Zhang Xiu, became one of the six ministers under Zhang Xiu''s command; Gan Ning and Huang Zhong, who followed Zhang Xiu, became the generals of one side.


    Only he Kuai Liang, has been lurking in Xiangyang, unknown.


    Now, it''s time for him to harvest.


    Officials in Jingzhou were surprised when they looked at Kuai Liang. Because they didn''t expect that Kuai Liang would be appointed as the governor of Jingzhou. But if you think about it carefully, it was Kuai Liang who helped Liu Biao in Jingzhou.It was Kuai Liang who gave advice to Liu Biao, and Liu Biao was able to hold the official post of Jingzhou animal husbandry. Without the help of Kuai Liang, Liu Biao could not stabilize the situation. Although people are shocked, but understand people is to see at a glance, obviously Kuai Liang is very early for Zhang Xiu''s advice.


    That''s what it is today.


    Kuai Yue was also happy and happy for his elder brother.


    But Cai Mao sighed in his heart.


    It''s a pity.


    In fact, Cai Mao''s heart, for Jingzhou CI Shi, there are some ideas. However, compared with Kuai Liang, his qualifications are obviously insufficient. Even he was persuaded by Kuai Liang to submit to Zhang Xiu. Especially Cai Mao has to admit that Kuai Liang is more powerful than him.


    Although Cai Mao was lost, he had nothing to say.


    Zhang xiulang said: "the situation in Jingzhou is complex, and it needs a competent person. Kuai Liang has excellent intelligence and statecraft. Today, I worship Kuai Liang as the governor of Jingzhou and take charge of Jingzhou''s political affairs. "


    "I''ll do it


    Kuai Liang bowed himself.


    At the moment, Kuai Liang also heard Zhang Xiu''s appointment to him. It was not Jingzhou mu, but Jingzhou CI Shi.


    Jingzhou animal husbandry is a part of animal husbandry.


    This is a matter for the military and the government to grasp and control military power.


    According to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, the governor of Jingzhou was in charge of government affairs and the army was eliminated. What''s more, as Zhang Xiu said just now, Huang Zhong led the army to sit in Zhenjiang Xiajun. Huang Zhong has the final say in


    ''s military affairs. Jiangxia''s military affairs are the final ones.


    This is the separation of military and government.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Kuai Liang to return to the table and said, "Kuai Yue!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Kuai Yue came forward and bowed.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "our official Chang''an Kaifu, under the jurisdiction of six departments, I worship you as the Minister of rites, acting as the official affairs. Today, Pang Tong is the Minister of the Ministry of official affairs. He mainly follows his officials to attack the four sides. You go to Chang''an to take charge of the Ministry of rites. "


    "I''ll do it


    When Kuai Yue heard this, he was also happy.


    Although he is the Minister of rites, he is the deputy of Pang Tong, but in fact, Pang Tong is hardly in the Ministry of rites. He is the chief of the etiquette department when he serves as the left servant of the etiquette department.


    Kuai Yue is also clear about the structure of Zhang Xiu. The six Shangshu under Zhang Xiu''s command are six people with great power. Even once Zhang Xiu really dominates, these six books will become important officials in the court.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Cai Mao!"


    "Yes


    Cai Mao also stood up and saluted.


    At this moment, his heart is also looking forward to it. Although it is later for him to submit to Zhang Xiu, the Cai family where he works has paid a lot for Zhang Xiu''s profit in Jingzhou.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll appoint you as the right servant of the Ministry of war and go to Chang''an to serve in the Ministry of war."


    "Here it is


    Cai Mao also responded directly.


    The Ministry of war is a very important one, especially involving many military affairs, which need to go through the Ministry of war. Although he was the right Minister of the Ministry of war, with Jia Xu as the Minister of the Ministry of war, under the command of Zhang Xiu, he was also a powerful official.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged for the main people, she again arranged for the other officials to deal with all the matters properly. As for the other details, it was Kuai Liang who dealt with them.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a royal guards quickly entered.


    The royal guards came to Wang Yue, whispered a report, handed in a letter and quit.


    Wang Yue took the letter to Zhang Xiu and handed it to him. He said, "Lord, the four counties of Jingnan rebelled. Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling, Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, Zhao fan, the prefect of Guiyang, and Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling, all issued notices. Except for Liu Biao, they did not obey the orders of Jingzhou herdsmen appointed by the imperial court."


    WOW!!


    The officials below were in an uproar.


    No one thought that the four prefects of Jingnan should speak out.

 Chapter 669

    After hearing the news, Kuai Liang''s face changed slightly, but in an instant, he regained his composure and said, "Lord, the four counties in Jingnan are rebellious. We must immediately send troops to exterminate them."


    "What we are thinking about now is the Lord''s army, which is in Chang''an on the one hand and Jiangxia County on the other. No matter where 6 is deployed from, it will take time. "


    "In Xiangyang City, because Liu Biao dispatched 30000 elite soldiers to leave, there were few troops in Nanjun. The rest of Jingzhou''s troops are mainly concentrated in the four counties of Southern Jingzhou. "


    "If the forces of these four counties are gathered together, I am afraid they will not be less than 60000. Even if the four counties speak at the same time, it may be that the four counties are united. "


    Kuai Liang said: "we have to wait until we arrive in Jingzhou to know the specific situation."


    Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and opened the letter. She carefully looked at the contents of the letter and said: "according to the information, although the four counties rebelled at the same time, there was no sign of forming a joint army for the time being."


    Hoo!!


    Kuai Liang was also relieved when he heard the speech.


    At least, it''s not the most serious. If the four counties in Jingnan really unite, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    Cai Mao stepped forward and said: "Lord, although Liu Biao has been weakening the military power of lowly officers these days, he will not let them take charge of the army. But in Jingzhou City, I still have 5000 elite soldiers. This group of soldiers are willing to donate to help the Lord fight against the four counties of Jingnan. "


    Kuai Liang said, "my Kuai family also has many private soldiers. I''m willing to raise 3000 private soldiers to help my lord fight against the four counties of Jingnan."


    The rest of the people spoke.


    After listening to everyone''s words, Zhang Xiu made a preliminary calculation. However, the troops donated by these officials are as many as 15000, which is already a powerful force.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded: "I''m not very grateful for your help. In that case, please return to your homes and mobilize private soldiers to gather at the barracks in the city. The military situation is urgent. My Officer immediately dispatched troops to the south to pacify the rebellion in the four counties of Jingnan. "


    For the four counties of Jingnan, Zhang Xiu is not really in the eye.


    In history, after Liu Bei captured Jingzhou, he swept the four counties in the south of Jingzhou without expending any troops and won easily.


    The crowd left quickly, and Liu Qi, sitting below, had no expression on her face, but her heart was full of joy. He thought in his heart, if Zhang Xiu crusades against the four counties of Jingnan and dies on the battlefield, that would be good.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Qi and said with a smile, "Liu Qi, are you looking forward to my official''s death on the battlefield?"


    "No, absolutely not!"


    Liu Qi directly shook his head and answered.


    Although his ability is not very good, but such a simple answer, but also deal with freely.


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said, "no matter what you think, it doesn''t matter. Because whatever you think is impossible. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Immediately, there are attendants to enter.


    Zhang xiudao: "take Liu Qi and make him not leave at will."


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he left with Liu Qi.


    Zhang Xiu in the hall, waiting quietly, time passes, an hour, fleeting.


    At this time, there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall, but Kuai Liang strode in and said, "Lord, all the soldiers in the barracks have gathered. There are not many, not many, 15000 people. However, with the gathering of private soldiers from different families, the combat effectiveness may be uneven. The Lord needs to be careful. "


    "Don''t worry!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I have my own sense of propriety when it comes to war."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "on the contrary, if you stay in Xiangyang, you must be careful. Now the four counties in Jingnan are independent, and the South County may not be calm. If you think the situation is unfavorable, you can ask Huang Zhong for help. "


    Kuai Liang said: "I understand your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu no longer delay time, with Wang Yue and others, went straight to the city barracks. At the moment, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and other members of the major families are among them, representing their own private soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu waved Kuai Yue, Cai Mao and others out, and her eyes fell on the 15000 people.


    These 15000 people are the key.


    When Zhang Xiu left Jiangxia County, she only dispatched 1000 flying bear soldiers to accompany her. Although the flying bear army has a strong fighting capacity, it has a small number of troops after all. The most important battle still depends on these 15000 people.


    Zhang Xiu stood in the front, and he said in a loud voice: "you and I will go down to the South with our officials and wipe out the four counties of Jingnan. Before sending out troops, I have something to say to let you have a bottom in your heart. "


    "On the battlefield, orders and prohibitions, as long as they are ordered to attack, they can only rush forward, not retreat."


    "Those who retreat, there is no amnesty for killing!"


    "On the battlefield, colleagues help each other and are not allowed to count on each other."


    "Once found, there is no amnesty for killing."


    "On the battlefield, each side shall kill the enemy and perform meritorious service, and shall not falsely claim credit or snatch credit from the other side."


    "Once found, there is no amnesty for killing."


    Zhang Xiu said three times in a row that there was no amnesty for killing. She was fierce. When private soldiers in the army heard the words, they all held their breath. It''s really that Zhang Xiu has a strong air.Zhang Xiu has never been defeated.


    In the eyes of private soldiers of various families, Zhang Xiu is superior and extremely powerful. Now when Zhang Xiu talks, the words are even more frightening, which makes people dare not disobey.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "before you, you were private soldiers of various families, but from this moment, you are no longer private soldiers, but Zhang Xiu''s soldiers."


    "If you are a soldier, you have to obey orders."


    "It''s the duty of a soldier to obey orders, but I can''t disobey them."


    "Those who disobey the order will be killed!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said: "similarly, you have made contributions on the battlefield, and no one dares to deduct your salary. As long as you are outstanding, you can kill the enemy and make contributions. "


    "I don''t care what you used to be."


    "You can stay in the army as long as you like. You will be rewarded for your meritorious deeds and punished for your mistakes. As long as you are meritorious, no one dares to stop you. Most of you, if you don''t have a chance, it will be like this in your life. You can''t have the rest. "


    "But in this war, as long as you make contributions, you will be able to get rid of your present life and live a better life. What kind of life you want to live is not up to me, but up to you. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words are very bewitching.


    "Kill the enemy!"


    Soldiers in the army, someone yelled.


    "Kill the enemy!"


    "Kill the enemy!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts resounded through the school yard.


    At the moment, private soldiers in the army, inspired by Zhang Xiu, have gradually changed. Zhang Xiu did not say anything false, that is, the real temptation of interests, is a real reward.


    You want to be somebody.


    You want to stand out.


    Then kill me!


    Zhang Xiu listened to the voice of the soldiers, with a smile on her face, and let the soldiers shout. After a long time, the cry of the soldiers in the army completely subsided, and there were no more soldiers shouting.


    Zhang Xiu said: "when I was in charge of the army, I often said that if I wanted to let the horses run, I couldn''t do without grass. In the same way, if you want to go to war, you can''t talk. Now that you are in the army, I will pay you two months'' salary in advance. Your pay will be paid according to the treatment of our soldiers. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu looks at Kuai Liang.


    Kuai Liang immediately understood, immediately arranged for the soldiers to open the Treasury, transferred a car of money. All the money is five baht, all of which are tied up in circles.


    Zhang Yiyuan and his soldiers called to arrange their own pay.


    It took an hour to pay the soldiers.


    After all the work, it was almost noon.


    After lunch, Zhang Xiu left Xiangyang and began to send troops to the south. This time, the 15000 private soldiers led by Zhang Xiu were already full of fighting spirit and joy.


    Before the war started, they received two months'' salary, which is a real salary. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s military salary was extremely rich, which made all the soldiers happy.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s promise of high welfare, the morale of the army is high.


    All the soldiers are looking forward to meritorious service.

 Chapter 670

    Wuling County, Linyuan county.


    This is the seat of Wuling county and the political center of Wuling county. Compared with Changsha County, Lingling county and Guiyang County, Wuling county has more mountains and forests.


    Wuling county is the most difficult place to govern, because there are a large number of Wuxi barbarians in Wuling county. These Wuxi barbarians often go out of the mountains to plunder, and they are extremely fierce, so it is difficult to eliminate them.


    Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling County, has made great achievements in governing Wuling county because of Liu Biao''s kindness. He actually gets along with wuximan people peacefully. Because Jin Xuan talks with wuximan personally and supplies some food every year, which makes wuximan not allowed to make trouble. At the same time, he asks wuximan to help Jin Xuan clean up bandits.


    Only in this way can Wuling county be peaceful.


    Taishou mansion, in the study.


    A middle-aged man in his early thirties is sitting in a state of crisis and dealing with government affairs. This person is no other than Jin Xuan. Jin Xuan is now in his prime. He was born with a national face. He looks serious and gives people a rather severe feeling.


    Now, Jin Xuan is constantly mobilizing troops to raise food and grass.


    It''s preparing for a big war.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the study, there was a knock on the door.


    Jin Xuan said, "come in!"


    The door creaked and was pulled back, but a middle-aged scholar in his late 30s entered the hall. His name was gong Zhi, a counselor of Jin Xuan.


    After Gong Zhi saluted Jin Xuan, he said, "my Lord, Lingling County, Changsha County and Guiyang County have sent back news. Although the four counties do not respect Zhang Xiu together with the adults, they are actually unwilling to unite with the Lord to fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "A group of short sighted people!"


    After hearing this, Jin Xuan gave a roar.


    When Jin Xuan gets the news that Liu Biao died in the front line, he predicts that Zhang Xiu will definitely be ready to seize Jingzhou. So at that time, Jin Xuan sent people to unite with the other three counties, convinced the people of the three counties to issue a notice together, and only respected the order of Jingzhou Mu appointed by the imperial court. The reason for this was to resist Zhang Xiu.


    However, considering Zhang Xiu''s great potential, Jin Xuan hopes to unite with the other three counties to form an army to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, the three counties refused.


    Gong Zhi continued: "so it is, but the officials of other counties have also said that they are willing to keep watch and help each other. Once Zhang Xiu attacks any county, she is willing to help. "


    "That''s not bad!"


    When Jin Xuan heard the news, his face was slightly relieved. He said: "in fact, I hope Zhang Xiu will go directly south to attack Changsha County. Han Xuan likes to protect himself and is not willing to form a joint army. Once he is first attacked by Zhang Xiu, let''s see what he says. "


    Gong Zhi said: "Lord, although Liu Biao is dead, what if Zhang Xiu doesn''t send troops even if she takes Jingzhou?"


    Jin Xuan glanced at Gong Zhi and said, "do you think it''s possible?"


    Gong Zhi said: "the best result is naturally that Zhang Xiu only cares about Jingbei three counties, Nanyang County, Nanjun county and Jiangxia County, regardless of our Jingnan four counties, that is the best result."


    "No way!"


    Jin Xuan snorted and said, "if you''re not ready, you''ll be swallowed by Zhang Xiu."


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a soldier''s voice came from outside the study. Not long after, the soldier reported: "to the governor, there is news from Jingzhou that Zhang Xiu led more than 15000 soldiers to Wuling county to kill them."


    After a pause, the soldier said again: "but Zhang Xiu''s army is in Jiangxia county. These 15000 soldiers are private soldiers raised by Zhang Xiu from the families in Jingzhou. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Jin Xuan heard this, he couldn''t help laughing and said: "Zhang Xiu is so arrogant that she doesn''t mobilize the army. Instead, she relies on the private soldiers of the major families to go south. It seems that Zhang Xiu is really tired of living. "


    But Zhang Zhuzhi is not so optimistic. Even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals. In my opinion, be careful. "


    "That''s true!"


    After hearing this, Jin Xuan nodded and answered.


    Jin Xuan waved his hand to let the soldiers back down, and said, "military commander, I asked you to send someone to inform shamoko, the king of wuximan. His reply at that time was that he was willing to send troops to help me. Now, where is it? "


    Gong Zhi said: "in reply to my Lord, shamoko has already left. Yesterday, he sent back the news that he has entered Linyuan county. I guess we should be able to arrive today. "


    Jin Xuan''s eyes narrowed and said, "that''s good. Now we can''t lack shamoko."


    Gong Zhi said: "every time shamoko sent troops, he was bound to ask the Lord to bring out money, food and weapons. After every war, shamoko had to search for weapons and food. Today, wuximan is very powerful. If we continue to provide food, I''m afraid wuximan''s strength will become stronger and stronger, even out of control! "


    Jin Xuan confidently said: "what can''t be controlled? Wuxi barbarians gather in the mountains and live on the mountains. Few of them cultivated it. It was my official who provided food so that Wuxi people would not be hungry. Under this premise, as long as the official cut off the grain, wuximan would be completely affected. So don''t worry about it. "After a pause, Jin Xuan said: "now Zhang Xiu is going to Wuling county to kill, and Zhang Xiu''s troops are not enough. You immediately arrange for people to send letters to Han Xuan, Liu Du and others, so that they can mobilize troops from their respective counties and come to Wuling county to destroy Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu''s troops are few, and it''s time to wipe out Zhang Xiu. Once Zhang Xiu''s troops gather from all directions, it will not be easy to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Gong Zhi answers, turns around and leaves.


    After Gong Zhi left, less than a quarter of an hour later, a soldier reported that shamoko went to the palace to ask for a meeting.


    "Please


    Jin Xuan didn''t refuse, so he ordered directly.


    Soon, shamoko entered.


    Now, in his early twenties, shamoko has been king of wuximan for only two or three years. But it is precisely in these two or three years that wuximan''s strength has expanded rapidly and become more and more powerful.


    He is nine feet long and has a rough face. His eyes are blue, his face is black and red, his hair is scattered on his shoulders, and his face is very rough and fierce.


    He was even more entwined with animal teeth, with a rough air.


    When he saw Jin Xuan, he raised his head and said, "governor Jin, we meet again. You invited me this time to resist the army of Zhang Xiu. Although I am a barbarian, I know that Zhang Xiu is very powerful. It''s not easy to resist Zhang Xiu. My condition is very simple. You give me 30000 stone grain, and I will obey your order. What do you think? "


    30000 stone grain?


    Hearing the words, Jin Xuan immediately frowned and said, "shamoko, your conditions are too harsh. As soon as you open your mouth, you will get 30000 stone grains, which is not easy for me. "


    Shamoko said, "I don''t care about this. Give it to me and I''ll help you. If you don''t leave now. The army under my command has arrived outside the city. It''s up to you if you want to. "


    "Good!"


    Jin Xuan clenched his teeth and said, "I promise you, according to the previous rules, I will give you ten thousand stone grain first. I''ll give you the 20000 stone grain after the war. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    Shamoko grinned with joy. Thirty thousand stone grain is not a small amount. When it is sent to wuximan, wuximan will not be short of grain for a long time.


    "I''m leaving. Inform me when I send troops. I''m just outside the city."


    Shamoko did not stay, turned and left.


    Jin Xuan looks at shamoko''s back as he leaves, with a smile on his lips. He had more than ten thousand elite soldiers under his command, plus fifteen thousand Ximen soldiers from shamoko, as well as troops from other counties.


    He will win this battle!

 Chapter 671

    Jiangling County was once the seat of Nanjun county.


    Many grains of Nanjun are gathered here.


    Especially Jiangling County is located in the main channel of water vein, extending in all directions, can transport grain, is a very important place.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to the south of Xiangyang. After arriving in Jiangling County, the army took a rest in Jiangling County. All the way south, Zhang Xiu is also constantly training soldiers and integrating private soldiers of various families.


    As a matter of fact, these private soldiers sent by the Kuai family, Cai family and other major families all have their own characteristics and are easy to split up the army. Therefore, when Zhang Xiu marched south, she upset the soldiers of various families, confused the soldiers in the whole army, reorganized them and formed the military structure.


    For many years, Zhang Xiu was a soldier in the flying bear army. There were 1000 flying bear soldiers in the army, which could save Zhang Xiu a lot of things and quickly form combat effectiveness.


    When the army went down to the south, the royal guards of Wang Yue had been constantly searching for information.


    The troops and horses did not move, and the food and grass came first.


    That''s right.


    In the same way, it is crucial to know yourself and your enemy well and win a hundred battles. If the royal guards can get more information, it will be of great benefit to Zhang Xiu''s next war.


    Along the way, there was news coming back. After seeing it, Zhang Xiu became more and more familiar with the situation of Wuling county and other places.


    After a little rest in Jiangling County, the army went straight to Fuling county.


    Fuling county is the northernmost County of Wuling County, adjacent to Jiangling County. If you win Fuling County, you will have a bridgehead to attack Wuling county.


    Near the border of Fuling County, near noon, the army took a rest, and Wang Yue rushed into the camp. Wang Yue''s face was slightly dignified. He reported: "Lord, the news of Wuling county has been sent back from Linyuan county."


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    After reading the letter quickly, Zhang Xiu said, "call Sima Yi, Guoyuan and Pang Tong."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately went to inform, and in a short time, the three joined hands to enter the camp. Although Huang Zhong was in Jiangxia County, Sima Yi and others left with Zhang Xiu.


    These are Zhang Xiu''s counselors, enough to give advice for Zhang Xiu.


    Pang Tong and others sat down and said, "Lord, what''s the latest news coming back?"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "we have really got the latest news. We have come close to Fuling county all the way. At this time, no matter Wuling County, or Changsha County, or Lingling County, or Guiyang County, they all had a response. "


    "Jin Xuan, the prefect of Wuling County, not only raised troops, but also invited the other three counties to help. In addition, Jin Xuan asked shamoko, the king of Wuxi man in Wuling County, to send troops to help him. "


    "According to Jin Xuan''s general intention of dispatching troops, when we take down Fuling county and go south to Linyuan County, we are likely to be outflanked in Linyuan county. Even the other side''s forces, including the forces of four prefectures and wuximan, are at least 70000. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "our troops are only over 10000 soldiers in total. It is extremely unfavorable for us to confront Jin Xuan."


    When Pang Tong, Guoyuan and Sima Yi heard the speech, their faces were full of thinking.


    We are all thinking about this situation.


    Sima Yi immediately asked people to get a big map of Wuling County, Changsha County, Lingling county and Guiyang County. He looked at the map carefully and said, "Lord, in this battle, if we mobilize Huang Zhong''s troops and then Chang''an''s troops, we can drive straight in and destroy the enemy."


    "But now the weather is getting colder and colder. Although there is less ice and snow all the way south, the weather is still extremely cold. It is not suitable for large-scale troop deployment and the burden is too heavy."


    "In addition, all localities also need garrisons to avoid chaos."


    Sima Yi said: "so now, we can only have such a small number of troops. Relying on the present strength and humble advice, we can win by surprise. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to win by surprise?"


    Sima Yi''s hand fell on Changsha County and said: "now we slow down the speed of going south to Fuling County, and let the troops from Changsha County and other places gather in Linyuan county."


    "After entering Fuling County, we immediately turned the direction of the army and headed for Changsha County. Long distance attack, maybe into Changsha County. The forces of the four counties in Jingnan are all concentrated in Wuling county. It''s easy to attack Changsha County. "


    "At that time, if you drive straight in, you will be invincible."


    "In this way, the troops of Changsha County were forced to come back. The rest of the county''s forces will come back together, so the Wuling county''s forces will be empty again. "


    Sima Yi said: "then, we quickly turned our direction, and then went to Wuling county to attack Fuling county. After seizing Fuling County, he went to Linyuan county again and took Linyuan county with one heart


    Sima Yi''s eyes were shining with fine light.


    The current situation is the most suitable for surprise troops to win by surprise.


    Zhang Xiu is also in constant thinking, his face reveals a meditative expression. He doesn''t have any opinions about the long-distance attacks. Moreover, in the current army, every soldier''s food is excellent, not the normal two meals a day, but three meals a day, with meat every day. The soldiers are very effective and can support the high-intensity attacks.Pang Tong said, "my Lord, I think I can take a rest on Zhongda''s suggestion."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Pang Tong said: "after all, Zhongda''s proposal did not break away from attacking Linyuan county and Changsha County. But in my opinion, the purpose of this war is to attack cities and plunder land, and the most important is to destroy the main forces of the four counties in Jingnan. "


    "If the main forces of the four counties in Jingnan are destroyed, then it will be easy to attack them again. Even at that time, it will be much easier to break down or surrender one by one. "


    "So the humble suggestion, according to Zhongda''s suggestion, after killing Changsha County, we don''t necessarily withdraw to Wuling county. We just need to pretend to make a plan to withdraw and ambush the reinforcements on the way back."


    "It''s most appropriate to surround and help."


    Pang Tong said: "especially when it comes to the safety of Changsha County, Han Xuan, the governor of Changsha, can''t ignore it. Destroy his troops, then Han Xuan''s confidence will be completely destroyed. In this way, even the four counties in Jingnan were in danger, and the assembled forces would not attack and break themselves. "


    Guoyuan echoed: "Lord, I agree with Pang Shangshu''s suggestion. In this battle, we should mainly annihilate the main forces of the four counties in Jingnan, and at the same time expand our own forces. The number of our soldiers is small, but with the advance of the war, the number of our soldiers will increase. In this way, the combat effectiveness of our soldiers will become stronger and stronger. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "in that case, we should take the strategy of attacking the West with the East. Next, we went into Fuling county first, then quickly hid our tracks and got rid of the sentinel who was following secretly. Then, from Fuling county to Changsha County. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others spoke together.


    The army continued on its way, and the army led by Zhang Xiu easily entered Fuling county.


    Even because of Jin Xuan''s strategy, he didn''t set up an army in Fuling county to resist, so Zhang Xiu''s army was invincible in Fuling county and went smoothly all the way.


    But after entering the territory of Fuling County, when the army was stationed at night, Zhang Xiu began to send sentinels to clean up the surrounding sentinels, and then led the troops to leave quietly, leaving only an empty military camp, and then quickly walked day and night to Changsha County.


    This situation, after Jin Xuan''s sentinel found, has lost the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu army.

 Chapter 672

    Linyuan county is only two days away from Fuling county. If it''s a gallop, 300 miles a day, it''s enough to reach Linyuan County in one day.


    Although Jin Xuan''s sentinel was not slow in reporting the news, it could not reach the speed of 300 Li a day. It took a day and a half to reach Linyuan county and send the news back.


    After Gong Zhi got the news, his face became dignified.


    Lost Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts.


    That''s not a good sign.


    In fact, when Jin Xuan decided to fight Zhang Xiu, Gong Zhi didn''t agree. Who is Zhang Xiu? He is a tiger general in the north and south. He is invincible. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are not Zhang Xiu''s opponents, let alone Jin Xuan? But Jin Xuan is determined to fight. Gong Zhi has no choice but to fight with Jin Xuan to the end.


    When Gong Zhi arrived at the hall of the prefect''s residence, the hall was full of singing and dancing.


    Jin Xuan is the leader and sits on the theme.


    At the bottom, there are three people sitting. They are Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, Zhao fan, the prefect of Guiyang, and Liu Du, the prefect of Lingling. They all drink and have fun with Jin Xuan.


    Although the three men did not agree with Jin Xuan''s opinion and merged to form an army, they learned that Zhang Xiu was coming to Wuling county to kill him, but they all brought troops to help in the shortest time.


    After all, the four prefectures are both prosperous and at a loss. Once Jin Xuan is captured by Zhang Xiu, it will be extremely disadvantageous for them. So Han Xuan and others directly lead the troops to rescue him.


    After Gong Zhi entered, he quietly came to Jin Xuan and whispered in his ear.


    Jin Xuan frowned at the words.


    Immediately, he opened his eyebrows, waved his hand, and all the dancing singers stepped down. Seeing this, everyone''s eyes fell on Jin Xuan.


    Jin Xuan said: "just got the news, last night, Zhang Xiu led the army suddenly disappeared. Now, we can''t find the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Liu Du laughed and said, "it''s not a big problem. It''s not surprising that Zhang Xiu deliberately does this by making a mystery and not letting us know his whereabouts. "


    Zhao fan also said: "the ultimate goal of Zhang Xiu is to attack Linyuan county. Whatever his intention, we don''t have to deal with it. If you go to explore the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu now, maybe you will be led by her nose. Instead, it is better to sit in Linyuan county. In the end, Zhang Xiu will come to Yuanxian county. We just need to wait for the rabbit. "


    Han Xuan listened, but he was worried.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly disappeared. What if she went to attack Changsha County? You know, his main forces are concentrated around him, but the forces of Changsha County are empty.


    But this idea, Han Xuan just rise, already strangled, feel unlikely. Zhang Xiu''s goal is Wuling County, not Changsha County. She is sure to come to Yuan county.


    Jin Xuan laughs when he hears the words of several people. He doesn''t take them seriously. He waves his hand to let Gong Zhi go.


    At this time, Han Xuan said: "I have heard something about wuximan stationed outside the city. Wuximan''s combat effectiveness is not weak, and each of them is valiant and can fight well. In my opinion, they are the pioneers in this war. What do you think? "


    Zhao Fan said: "Han Taishou is right!"


    Liu Du also said: "what Han Taishou said is very true!"


    These three people are selfish. Anyway, wuximan is here. Let wuximan and Zhang Xiu fight hard. If they hide behind, they can reap the benefits of the fishermen and even win without a single soldier.


    Jin Xuan said with a smile: "what you have said is also my official''s consideration. Wuxi man is used to resist Zhang Xiu. So you don''t have to worry about anything at all. "


    When they heard this, they all laughed.


    Jin Xuan called out the singer again, drinking and having fun with a group of people. With the passage of time, in the evening, Jin Xuan, Han Xuan and others were already drunk. One by one, they hugged the singer and stayed in Jin Xuan''s palace. It was a luxury scene.


    At midnight, Gong Zhi''s residence.


    The sentry came back in a hurry and delivered a message quickly. Gong Zhi opened the letter, saw the content of the letter, suddenly widened his eyes, the whole person like lightning.


    No!


    Gong Zhi said in secret, and hurried out of his residence to the prefect''s residence.


    Today, the gate of the Imperial Palace has been closed, and even Jin Xuan, Han Xuan and others are already embracing the singer and sleeping soundly. After all, after a day''s drinking and a night''s bed sheet rolling with the singer, everyone was exhausted.


    It''s a waste of energy to play.


    After Gong Zhi knocked on the door, the porter saw that it was gong Zhi. He didn''t dare to neglect him. He quickly introduced Gong Zhi into the hall, and then went to inform Jin Xuan. After nearly half an hour, Jin entered the hall in his cloak, wrapped up tightly and sleepy.


    Seeing Gong Zhi, Jin Xuan frowned and said, "Sir, what''s the matter? We can''t talk about it after dawn. It''s cold at night. You have to talk about it now. ""It must be said now!"


    Gong Zhi looked dignified and said: "Lord, just got the news from the sentinel, the army led by Zhang Xiu has left Fuling County, left Wuling county and entered Changsha County. Not only that, as soon as Zhang Xiu arrived, she won Luo County on the back of Changsha County in a single effort. "


    Brush!


    Jin Xuan''s color changed when he heard it.


    Zhang Xiu has gone to Changsha.


    This is not good news, because whether it is the forces of Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, or the other forces of Lingling county and Guiyang County, they are all gathered in Wuling county.


    Now Zhang Xiu evades reality and goes directly to Changsha County, which makes her plan change. Even Jin Xuan is full of confidence to fight in Linyuan County, but all this has lost its effect.


    It means that Jin Xuan, Han Xuan and others are busy, but they don''t get any benefit.


    Jin Xuan narrowed his eyes and thought quickly. After a moment, he asked, "Sir, what do you think of this?"


    He did not immediately inform Han Xuan and others.


    Because he has no strategy, at least he has to work out how to deal with it. When Han Xuan comes, he can understand what to do next, so as to avoid the situation of emergency medical treatment.


    Gong Zhi had already thought about it clearly on his way here, and said: "I think that Zhang Xiu''s intentional entry into Changsha county is actually an attack from the east to the West. In fact, Zhang Xiu''s intention is to avoid our army and go to attack weak places. "


    "So I think that even if Zhang Xiu invades Changsha County, it''s impossible to rush to Changsha county all at once. In this war, we just need to ask Han Xuan to lead his troops back, and then mobilize wuximan''s troops to cooperate. "


    "The combined strength of the two sides is more than 20000, nearly 30000."


    Gong Zhi said: "after entering Changsha County, this force is enough to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. If we all rush into Changsha County, what if Zhang Xiu suddenly turns around and attacks Wuling county again? "


    "That''s the truth!"


    When Jin Xuan heard this, he thought it was reasonable. He immediately arranged for Han Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu du to come to discuss the matter. After a long time, the three people came to the hall drowsily, and then they all mumbled and looked discontented.


    Jin Xuan said directly: "just received the news, Zhang Xiu went to Changsha County, and conquered Luo County."


    "Ah


    When Han Xuan heard this, he shivered and his face changed. That body''s drowsiness, in an instant, had already disappeared completely, no more drowsiness.


    Han Xuan''s heart is more panic.


    The main forces of Changsha County are now brought to Wuling County by him, and the whole territory of Changsha county can not resist many forces. In particular, Luo County is adjacent to Linxiang County, the seat of Changsha County. Once Zhang Xiu drives straight in, I''m afraid Changsha County will not be protected.

 Chapter 673

    Han Xuan thought that Changsha County was going to be in danger, and his heart was even more up and down. He said hurriedly: "Jin Taishou, Zhang Xiu goes straight to Changsha County. Not only that, it also conquered Luo County, which is a great threat to Linxiang County, the seat of Changsha County. "


    After a pause, Han Xuan said: "our four prefectures formed an alliance. Although they did not form a unified army, they also stood by and helped each other. I suggest that we immediately mobilize our own troops to Changsha county to encircle and suppress Zhang Xiu, who is approaching Linxiang county. Only by killing Zhang Xiu can Changsha county be safe. "


    "No!"


    Jin Xuan shook his head and answered.


    Han Xuan''s face immediately sank down and asked, "why not?"


    After that, he looked around at the crowd with indignation in his eyes and said, "you Jinxuan, let me help you. If you don''t have a second word, each of our three counties will bring their own soldiers. But now I Changsha County, in trouble, you ignore, say what can''t? It''s not true what you''re doing. "


    Jin Xuan said with a smile, "brother Han, don''t worry. Listen to me, OK?"


    Han Xuan snorted: "if you don''t tell me your ugly Yin Mao, don''t blame me for being rude."


    Zhao fan and Liu Du also look at Jin Xuan.


    As soon as they heard that Wuling county was in trouble, they rushed for help. For them, they have done their utmost. If Jin Xuan doesn''t give an explanation, the alliance of the four counties in Jingnan will collapse.


    Jin Xuan had already discussed with Gong Zhi. He had a definite plan and said, "Zhang Xiu attacked Changsha County and conquered Luo County. This time, the layout can be said to be a typical strategy of striking the West with the East. "


    "If the soldiers of our four counties go to Changsha, it will lead to the emptiness of Wuling county. If we arrive at Changsha County, but Zhang Xiu turns and goes to Wuling county again? "


    "Have you ever thought about it?"


    "Guiyang County and Lingling county are located in the south of Changsha and Wuling. If Zhang Xiu wants to attack these two places, he must go around them."


    Jin Xuan said: "so there is no need to worry about Guiyang and Lingling for the time being. What we need to do now is not only to rescue Changsha County, but also to ensure the safety of Wuling county. "


    At this point, Jin Xuan looked at Han Xuan and asked, "what do you think, Han Taishou?"


    Han Xuan said, "what do you say to do?"


    Now, Han Xuanjun is worried about the safety of Changsha. Once Linxiang county falls, Changsha County will be in turmoil.


    Jin Xuan made a slight pause, then continued: "there is an army stationed outside Linyuan county. It is the wuximan soldiers I recruited, and the leader is shamoko, the king of wuximan."


    "Shamoko was born with divine power and was a strong general on the battlefield."


    "Wuximan has more than 10000 troops and is extremely effective. In addition, I will send another 5000 elite soldiers to make up 15000. In addition, the 15000 excellent troops of Han Taishou add up to 30000 troops. "


    Jin Xuan said: "Han Taishou, commander in chief of these 30000 people, back to Changsha County."


    "I, Liu Taishou and Zhao Taishou are temporarily in Linyuan county to prevent Wuling county from being attacked. After all, Zhang Xiu''s military strength is only about 15000, and her combat effectiveness is insufficient. "


    "I don''t think it''s a problem for Han Taishou to attack with 30000 troops. Even if Han Taishou is not the enemy, he can choose to garrison, and then drag down Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Jin Xuan said: "in case of war, as long as the Han Taishou drags Zhang Xiu''s army, we will send troops immediately. At that time, Zhang Xiu''s troops will not be allowed to flee. "


    After hearing this, Han Xuan showed approval on his face and said with a smile, "I agree with what the governor said."


    With 30000 excellent soldiers in hand, Han Xuan thinks he can win.


    Zhao fan and Liu Du also nodded in agreement. For them, it is desirable for them to stay in Linyuan county without using their own forces.


    Han Xuan worried about the unfavorable situation and did not dare to delay. He left in a hurry and went to transfer troops to fight.


    ¡­¡­


    Hulugu!


    This place is located in the west of Linxiang County, 35 miles away.


    The landform here belongs to hilly area. Although there are rolling forests, they are not steep. The road at the foot of the mountain is in the shape of a gourd. At the entrance, the road is wide, nearly 200 Zhang away.


    But with the direction of Linxiang County, the road becomes more and more narrow. The narrowest place is only three or four feet away. Although the mountain forests on both sides are not steep, they are old and deep in the mountains, and few people have access to them, so they are not easy to enter.


    In the middle of hulugu, there are soldiers ambushed by Zhang Xiu.


    After conquering Luo County, Zhang Xiu only made a little supply in Luo County and took part of the grain with her. There was no garrison in Luo County. For Zhang Xiu, the most important task now is not to attack the city and plunder the land, but to destroy the forces of Jin Xuan, Han Xuan and others.


    After he left Luoxian County, he fought under the banner of attacking Linxiang county. But Zhang Xiu''s army has quietly arrived at hulugu Valley and stationed in the forest on hulugu mountain.


    "Rustle!"


    The sound of hasty footsteps came, but the king was more and more.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu, bowed his hand and said: "Lord, I just got the news from Linyuan county. Han Xuan withdrew his troops and came to Changsha County. He had 15000 soldiers from Changsha County, more than 10000 Ximan soldiers and 5000 Wuling soldiers. Now, normalize to the direction of Linxiang countyZhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "Jin Xuan is not simple. Unexpectedly, he only let Han Xuan lead 30000 elite soldiers to withdraw. Obviously, he''s worried that I''ll fight back to Wuling county. "


    Wang Yue said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I asked you to inquire about Jin Xuan''s information before. Can I send back detailed information?"


    "Just sent back the message."


    Wang Yue took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and scanned it quickly.


    The letter expounds Jin Xuan''s character and ability. In fact, some of Jin Xuan''s people are ambitious, talented and capable, but they are not particularly outstanding.


    Many of Jin Xuan''s affairs were mainly planned by Gong Zhi.


    Gong Zhi is the most important person.


    Zhang Xiu rubbed the letter. After a moment, she said, "Wang Yue, send an order to the royal guards in Linyuan county. Let them first find out the details of Gong Zhi, find out his situation, and see if they can use him."


    Wang Yue replied, "the information about Gong Zhi has been found."


    As the leader of the royal guards, Wang Yue is very careful in his work. When it comes to the war, he thought it over and arranged the royal guards early to get a lot of information.


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised and said, "tell me, what kind of person is Gong Zhi?"


    Wang Yue said: "Gong Zhi is a man with a careful mind. As a counselor of Jin Xuan, he is quite good. But Gong Zhi has two shortcomings, which are well known in Linyuan county. "


    "First, Gong Zhi is afraid of death."


    "Gong Zhi lacks a sense of security. As long as he leaves the prefect''s residence, he has more than ten bodyguards around him to protect his safety."


    "Second, Gong Zhi is greedy for money."


    "Gong Zhi regarded money as his life, and he was rather stingy. All the goods that entered his hands did not spit out. And he''s not averse to money. "


    "Many people under Jin Xuan''s command want to ask Gong Zhi for information. As long as the money is in place, there will be no information they can''t find. In fact, the reason why we can find out the situation of Han Xuan''s withdrawal of troops is just the information we got from Gong Zhi by making use of wealth and goods. "


    Wang Yue talks with great confidence.


    Today, he is used to the affairs of the royal guards. He knows more about what information Zhang Xiu needs, so he doesn''t need Zhang Xiu''s instructions, so he will send someone to inquire ahead of time.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu had a thoughtful look on her face and said, "since that''s the case, I''ll send someone to contact Gong Zhi and bribe him for my use."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand and answered.


    "Newspaper!"


    The sentry came to Zhang Xiu in a hurry and reported: "Taiwei, the army led by Han Xuan has reached the border of Linxiang county. He is less than 40 li away from hulugu, only half a day''s journey. "


    "Explore again!"


    Zhang Xiu orders again.


    Forty miles away, with Han Xuan''s eagerness, I''m afraid it won''t take long to reach hulugu.

 Chapter 674

    Linxiang County border, official road.


    The cold wind whistling, blowing on the face, like a bone scraper, makes the cheek ache.


    Han Xuan, with shamoko and Jin Xuan''s 5000 soldiers, braved the cold wind. This time he withdrew to Linxiang County, Han Xuan took 30000 elite soldiers with him. In the bottom of his heart, in fact, he did not pay attention to Zhang Xiu.


    It is true that Zhang Xiu is powerful. The problem is that Zhang Xiu''s army is in Guanzhong. Even if Zhang Xiu still had an army in Jingzhou, it was in Jiangxia county. Han Xuan didn''t pay much attention to the small troops gathered by Xiangyang''s aristocratic families.


    If not, Han Xuan did not dare to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Especially when Han Xuan saw more than 10000 excellent soldiers of shamoko, he was even more determined. These Wuxi barbarians come out of the deep mountains and forests. They are valiant and valiant. They look like valiant soldiers on the battlefield.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest.


    The cook in charge of the food began to cook. When he had dinner, Han Xuan saw wuximan swallowing food one by one. He didn''t feel disgusted, but praised them. He wanted wuximan to eat more so that he could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.


    Han Xuan, as usual, must be disgusted when he sees Wu Xi''s rush for food. Now Han Xuan is eager to win over wuximan so that wuximan can work hard.


    Han Xuangang had lunch and was ready to lean against the big tree for a while. When he was a child, a soldier came over and reported respectfully: "my Lord, manwang of wuximan asked to see him."


    "Please


    Han Xuan waved his hand.


    The soldiers went to inform him that it wasn''t long before he came to Han Xuan and sat down.


    Han Xuan is very satisfied with shamoke''s strong body, especially when he saw shamoke riding a horse, carrying a brier bone, the murderous look, is appreciated.


    This is a valiant general!


    With shamoko in, Han Xuan is full of confidence.


    Han Xuan, with a smile on his face, stroked his beard under his jaw and said with a straight face, "what''s the matter with the man King coming to see me?"


    "Business!" said shamoko


    After Han Xuan heard this, he was stunned.


    Talk business!


    What kind of business?


    In particular, the man Wang of Wuxi was born in a vulgar family. He didn''t know a word and had to talk about business, which made people feel strange. In particular, he is not as stupid as Wu Xi. On the contrary, shamoko feels extremely smart.


    Han Xuan suppressed his surprise and asked, "what business is manwang going to talk about?"


    Shamoko replied: "naturally, it''s a business to talk about, fighting with Zhang Xiu. I entered Wuling county to defend Jin Xuan against Zhang Xiu''s army. Jin Xuan gave me 30000 stone grains. "


    "Now my barbarians have left Wuling county and entered Changsha County. My agreement with Jin Xuan will no longer take effect. It will not take effect again until we return to Wuling county. "


    "I went to Linxiang county with Han Taishou, and wanted me to fight against Zhang Xiu for you, or even attack Zhang Xiu for you. If you don''t show me anything, you can''t do it."


    Shamoko sat at will, holding his head high, looking like he was determined to eat Han Xuan.


    Han Xuan took a puff from the corner of his mouth. He was surprised by the shrewdness of shamoke. He didn''t expect shamoke to say such a thing. This is not a man king. It''s a businessman. I want to bargain with him.


    Han Xuan asked: "Man Wang wants to resist Zhang Xiu for me. What are the conditions?"


    Shamoko grinned, showed his white teeth and said: "in fact, my condition is very simple. If I just resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, Han Taishou can give ten thousand stones of grain. If you want to attack Zhang Xiu, Han Taishou will give me 30000 stone grain. "


    Hiss!


    Han Xuan took a cool breath.


    Shamoko is really good at business. He needs more than ten thousand tons of grain as soon as he opens his mouth. As for Han Xuan, especially Changsha County, which is quite rich, ten thousand stone grain is not a small amount, but for a barbarian like shamoko, ten thousand stone grain is not a small amount.


    "What''s the meaning of Han Taishou?" asked shamoko


    Han Xuan did not immediately answer, said: "if I do not give food?"


    "It doesn''t matter!"


    Shamoko shrugged, a sly look in his eyes.


    He rubbed his ragged armor, shook his hair and said, "if you don''t give me food, I will still follow you. But don''t count on me to fight on the battlefield. I''ll get out of the field then. "


    After a pause, shamoko said again: "Jin Xuan only asked me to send troops with you, and didn''t say anything else. What''s more, it was Jin Xuan who asked me to help him when he gave 30000 stone grains. I didn''t say I wanted to help you in advance. "


    Han Xuan said: "Man Wang''s account is really clear."


    Shamoko said: "you Han people have a saying, it''s called brother Ming Suan. I remember it very clearly. If you want me to send troops, you have to bring out enough benefits. Otherwise, who are my barbarians willing to fight hard? "


    Han Xuan was silent.


    I didn''t expect that shamoko made an offer in the middle of the way. In today''s situation, Han Xuan, even if he is not willing to give food, has no choice but to bite his teeth.Because the 10000 excellent troops of shamoko are crucial.


    With ten thousand of shamoko, Han Xuan has the strength to fight Zhang Xiu. Han Xuan had only 20000 elite soldiers and Zhang Xiu had more than 15000. On this premise, Han Xuan did not think he could win steadily.


    Han Xuan didn''t delay. He said, "I have agreed to the request of Man Wang. Now that he has given food, manwang has to go all out. Thirty thousand stone grain is not given in vain. "


    With a smile on his rough cheek, he said, "I am always fair and just in doing things. If you don''t believe it, you can ask Jin Xuan. He asked me to go out and encircle people for him in almost all battles. "


    Han Xuan''s eyes were rolling.


    Shamoko is greedy for money!


    In this way, can we make use of shamoco? Let shamoko make trouble in Wuling county.


    But Han Xuan just thought about it for the moment. After all, even Zhang Xiu didn''t solve the problem. Even if we have to consider the follow-up, we have to wait until we kill Zhang Xiu to compete with Jingzhou herdsmen.


    The army rested in place.


    Two quarters of an hour later, the army set out again.


    Now wuximan is getting good, and everyone is happy, so he has the energy to walk. Everyone''s on the move. We''re on the way a lot faster.


    It''s getting closer to hulugu.


    Han Xuan knew the landform of hulugu valley. After all, it was in Linxiang county. In fact, the entrance of gourd Valley is not too narrow, especially the entrance of gourd valley. The mountains on both sides are not steep. Han Xuan didn''t pay attention to such a place.


    The army is still on its way.


    In the middle of hulugu, Zhang Xiu gets excited when she gets the news of Han Xuan''s arrival.


    Finally!


    This time, he wants to let Han Xuan get in the way.


    Zhang Xiu hiding in the forest, did not immediately send troops, quietly waiting. Han Xuan''s troops, full of 30000 people, the team winding long, like a snake across the official road.


    In a short time, Han Xuan''s army arrived at the foot of Zhang Xiu mountain.


    At this time, a soldier came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Taiwei, the front troops are led by wuximan shamoko, with a total of 10000 people. Followed by five thousand troops of Wuling county. At the end of it is Han Xuan''s Changsha army. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded, with a fine light on her face.


    He has all arranged, just wait for Han Xuan''s central army, to Zhang Xiu position, can launch an attack.

 Chapter 675

    As time goes by, Han Xuan''s position is getting closer and closer to Zhang Xiu''s ambush. When Han Xuan''s central army was lying in ambush with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated and resolutely ordered: "blow the trumpet, order to attack!"


    "Woo! Woo


    In the mountains, the horn suddenly sounded.


    The sound of the horn, deep and passionate, reverberates in the hulugu area. In particular, hulugu is a road under the slope. The sound reverberates back and forth continuously, which makes people hear it clearly.


    Han xuanzheng led the troops on his way, and when he heard the trumpet sound coming from both sides of the hillside, he raised his eyebrows.


    Ambush!


    Han Xuan had an idea in his mind.


    Think of oneself in the ambush of Zhang Xiu, Han Xuan heart, but not very eager.


    It''s Zhang Xiu who ambushes him.


    Hulugu landform, even if he was ambushed by Zhang Xiu, Han Xuan is not afraid. What''s more, Han Xuan knows that Zhang Xiu''s military strength is not many, only more than 10000 people, and he is leading a force of up to 30000 people at the moment, and there are also such brave generals as shamoko.


    Even if this lineup encounters ambush, Han Xuan is not afraid.


    "Stand by, prepare to fight!"


    Han Xuan orders in a loud voice, but his face is full of war instead of fear.


    Soldiers under the command, be on alert quickly.


    "Kill


    In the mountain forest, Zhang Xiu has already carried the overlord gun and killed with the soldiers. At the moment, there are 5000 elite soldiers around Zhang Xiu. Among these 5000 people, there are more than 300 veterans of the flying bear army. All people with Zhang Xiu together, the mighty out, straight to the battlefield.


    "It''s today to kill the enemy and do meritorious deeds. Follow me! If you want to get a reward, you can go with me; if you want to get a promotion, you can go with me. "


    "Kill


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu is almost trying to shout.


    The rambling soldiers rushed out from the slopes on both sides of hulugu valley. It was too late and too fast. In a flash, they were killed in Han Xuan''s army, and the two sides began to fight at close range.


    Han Xuan looked calm and calm. Without any panic, he quickly mobilized the army to resist. He looked around and saw that Zhang Xiu''s troops were so few that he didn''t think Zhang Xiu could ambush him.


    "Kill me!"


    "It''s today to kill Zhang Xiu."


    Han Xuan constantly orders his soldiers to speed up the attack. All the soldiers quickly gathered, intending to encircle Zhang Xiu, but at the same time of Zhang Xiu''s attack, at the exit of hulugu Valley, in the narrow area, Ma Chao led 5000 elite soldiers to attack the front wuximan army.


    At the entrance of hulugu Valley, in the broad area, Zhao Yun led 5000 elite soldiers to enter, blocking the retreat of Han Xuan''s army.


    Zhang Xiubing was divided into three groups.


    The front is Ma Chao''s army, the middle is Zhang Xiu''s army, and the back is Zhao Yun''s army. The three armies attacked together. The attack was fierce for a while.


    Not long after, the news has been reported to Han Xuan.


    Han Xuan''s face still had no panic. In the front, shamoko led his troops to resist. In the back, his troops were stationed. There were five thousand elite soldiers of Jin Xuan. There were so many people and they were not afraid of each other.


    "Newspaper!"


    A soldier came and reported, "general, I can''t stop it. Zhang Xiu''s one shot per person, plus the ferocity of his soldiers, our soldiers can''t stop it. "


    Han Xuan''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu in the distance. Saw Zhang Xiu carrying a overlord gun, the horse back and forth. He lifted, smashed or swept the overlord gun. Blood splashed and soldiers died in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Especially around Zhang Xiu, there are Wang Yue, Shi a and others. No matter who he is, he is a strong general on the battlefield. Especially under the close combat, Wang Yue and Shi a, that is a sharp sword.


    The light of each sword flickered, and Han Sui''s soldiers were defeated.


    "Up, surround and kill Zhang Xiu."


    "Those who killed Zhang Xiu will be rewarded with 100 gold."


    "Kill Zhang Xiu for me!"


    Han then gave a loud order with a sharp look. Even if Zhang Xiu is fierce, Han Sui has no intention to withdraw. He thought that there was shamoko in front of him. He just needed to stabilize the situation.


    Once shamoko comes back, it''s easy to wipe out Zhang Xiu.


    After all, he has enough troops.


    Batch after batch of soldiers, just like the tide, constantly flocked to the area where Zhang Xiu was. But all the soldiers who surrounded her were killed soon, which could not pose a threat to Zhang Xiu.


    The more fierce the Vietnam War was, the more aggressive the soldiers under her command were.


    In particular, there are veterans of the flying bear army, who are used to fighting and have high morale. Even though there are only more than 5000 soldiers around Zhang Xiu, the fighting spirit and fighting capacity of these 5000 soldiers can be described as decaying.


    After all, Han Xuan''s soldiers have been out of battle for a long time.


    Han Xuan''s power, that is, shamoko, can resist. Because ten thousand barbarians of shamoko fought and plundered everywhere, they had strong fighting capacity and could block the attack of Ma Chao''s troops.Han Xuan''s and Jin Xuan''s forces have been defeated.


    "Newspaper!"


    After fighting for a while, some soldiers withdrew from the rear and came to Han Xuan''s side, reporting: "my Lord, our soldiers in the rear can''t stop us. Zhang Xiu''s army was in full swing, and the soldiers began to rout. "


    Han Xuan''s expression was extremely solemn.


    His face is also full of worry, did not expect to fight for a while, the rear of the army, was unable to carry.


    "Newspaper!"


    Another young general came to Han Xuan''s side and reported: "Lord, Zhang Xiu is leading the soldiers into the battle. The soldiers under our command dare not take advantage of him. They have been in constant rout."


    Brush!


    Han Xuan''s face has changed slightly.


    It''s not good!


    Han Xuan, under the protection of his bodyguard, looks around. Only to see the soldiers under his command, constantly rout. Even if he had a large number of soldiers under his command, he could not carry Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Han Xuan took a cold breath, and his eyes were shocked.


    Zhang Xiu is so strong!


    Since the fighting, Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun, who came from the rear, have begun to meet. After the confluence of the two armies, the strength of the troops increased, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers became stronger for a time.


    All the soldiers under Han Sui were defeated. Seeing that the opportunity was not good, Han Xuan turned his mind and quickly ordered: "withdraw, we will meet with shamoko."


    "Withdraw, and wuximan meet."


    When the order went on, the soldiers in the army rushed forward one after another and went straight to the position where shamoko was. The soldiers of wuximan are all rebellious and fierce. They dare to fight and kill one by one and have strong fighting capacity.


    However, even so, the 10000 barbarians led by shamoko have not defeated the 5000 elite of Ma Chao. Although most of the 15000 soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command are private soldiers of various families, they have strong fighting capacity under Zhang Xiu''s training, and they have long been forbidden. They all want to make contributions, so they have strong fighting capacity and constantly resist the attacks of barbarians.


    The fighting between the two sides is, on the contrary, a stalemate.


    Ma Chao and Sha Moke, who are close to each other, are hard to separate.


    In a short time, there was no division.


    Shamoko holds the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris, which is hard and fierce without casting. Ma Chao is armed with a golden spear with tiger head and Zhan''s golden spear. His shooting technique is hard and soft, and there is no flaw in it. He fights and does not give in to each other.


    When the two men competed, there was no difference between them, and Han Xuan in the rear had already withdrawn with his troops.


    Han Xuan was defeated. He could only hope that shamoko''s barbarians would win.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun lead the troops to kill, and soon they fight with the troops of wuximan. Because the width of the exit from hulugu to Linxiang county is narrow, it is difficult for the two sides to get together.


    So that the team became a long dragon, scattered to fight. In the case of unable to gather together, Han Xuan''s soldiers were killed and wounded more seriously, and were constantly defeated by each other.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord''s gun and kills all the way forward. He approaches the position where Ma Chao and Sha Moke are. Seeing that Ma Chao couldn''t win, Zhang xiuce immediately said, "Meng Qi, step down, I''ll meet with shamoko for a while."


    "Shamoko, Zhang Xiu is here!"


    He was full of war in his eyes and killed him with a gun.

 Chapter 676

    When Ma Chao saw that Zhang Xiu had killed him, he forced shamoko back and quickly backed away. He knows Zhang Xiu''s strength. Shamoke can fight him, but he is sure to defeat Zhang Xiu. So after Ma Chao withdraws, he goes to kill the rest of wuximan.


    Shamoko holding the bone of Tribulus terrestris, saw Zhang Xiu killed, especially to see Zhang Xiu''s elegant appearance, heart sneer.


    Zhang Xiu is a little white faced child.


    What''s his fear?


    For Ma Chao, shamoko has some admiration. Shamoko hit the whole wuximan with a stick of Tribulus terrestris. Because of this, he became the king of wuximan.


    Moreover, because he brought tangible benefits to wuximan and brought back countless grains, all the people of wuximan were willing to obey shamoko''s orders.


    Shamoko has full confidence in his martial arts.


    "To die!"


    Shamoke drinks low, does not retreat but advances, is carrying the Tribulus terrestris bone flower, is facing Zhang Xiu to kill.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was swung immediately.


    Two people each brandish the weapon in the hand, then ruthlessly brandish.


    "Dang!"


    Iron Tribulus terrestris bone flower and Overlord gun hit together, in an instant, harsh vibration sound, reverberate in the air.


    Shamoko''s face suddenly changed.


    How is that possible?


    The power of Zhang Xiu''s white face is just fierce. The impact of the force, make Tribulus terrestris constantly shaking, the shaking force impact, make his palms numb, arms are faint pain.


    The horse in the crotch is Herod''s lament, because he has too much strength to bear.


    "Kick! Kick off


    The steed kept retreating, four steps in succession, to stabilize its burly figure.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s strength had a little influence on him, but in fact, it was insignificant. The chariot in his crotch pursues the wind. He is extremely strong. After taking the strength, he is not affected at all. He shakes off his four hooves and continues to move forward.


    "Pick me up again!"


    Zhang Xiu drinks again. Chasing the wind is like running like lightning. In a flash, she comes to shamoko again.


    The overlord''s gun, like Optimus Prime, swung and fell from the air.


    As soon as shamoko''s steed stabilized, before he could escape, he saw the fallen tyrant''s gun. Shamoko is a character who does not admit defeat. His legs tightly clasp the belly of the horse, and he clenches the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris to greet him.


    "Dang!"


    The crash sounded again.


    Under the impact of the vast force, the horse in shamoko''s crotch could no longer bear the force. With a hiss, his hooves were sour and soft, and he collapsed to the ground.


    Shamoko holds the palm of the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris, and the mouth of the tiger directly splits and flows out blood. Under the impact of this force, shamoko not only suffered from pain in his arms, but also suffered from the impact on his internal organs, and his Qi and blood churned violently.


    One mouthful of Qi and blood surged up and nearly vomited blood.


    But it was swallowed by shamoko.


    Shamoko immediately rolled down from the war, quickly rolled over, dodged first, and then stood up. Just at this time, shamoko''s eyes were shocked when he was carrying the bone of Tribulus terrestris. Zhang Xiu is so powerful. He is totally invincible in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Just when shamoko had just stood firm, Zhang Xiu had once again killed her horse.


    For a moment, shamocco''s scalp felt numb.


    There was fear in his eyes.


    He and Zhang Xiu''s fight, is a tough contest, not the slightest bit of fraud, not the slightest bit of dexterity. Under this frontal confrontation, his strength is totally invincible, Zhang Xiu is simply crushing him.


    Shamoko is not a dead brain man, he is more flexible. See Zhang Xiu kill to come, have no any hesitation, turn direction, directly fast hide in the barbarian, no longer continue to resist.


    "Boys, kill me!"


    "It''s today to kill Han Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a loud order.


    With Zhang Xiu''s defeat of shamoko, the rest of the soldiers were excited. All of them were full of fighting spirit and strong fighting will. They were the wuximan soldiers who attacked shamoko quickly.


    Under the leadership of Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, together with Wang Yue, Shi a and others, the attack was extremely fierce. Even if Han Xuan had a large number of troops, he was still invincible.


    The reason why han Xuan had enough strength was because of shamoko''s barbarians. He thinks that wuximan''s 10000 excellent soldiers are enough to compete with Zhang Xiu. But now Wuxi is not the enemy, Han Xuan immediately fell into a passive position.


    Shamoko himself has retreated to Han Xuan. The palms of his hands were full of blood, which had dyed the bone of Tribulus terrestris red. He gritted his teeth and said: "Han Taishou, Zhang Xiu''s army is powerful. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are extremely overbearing. I''m not even in front of him. Now, it can''t hold. Retreat, retreat at once


    At this time, shamoko was very anxious.


    If he does not retreat, he thinks the loss of his troops will be greater.


    Han Xuan was flustered and said in a loud voice: "retreat, retreat to Linxiang county. We will now withdraw to Linxiang county. "


    "No!"


    Shamoko slaps Han Xuan, which makes Han Sui half of his body collapse and grins with a look of pain. But as if not aware of it, he said in a loud voice: "the outlet of hulugu is too narrow. Our troops are going to retreat. For a while, we can''t retreat at all. Going to Linxiang county can only increase casualties. We can only retreat, withdraw from hulugu Valley, and then form an array to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. "Although shamoko was born into a barbarian and didn''t know a word, he had many years of fighting experience. While getting Han Xuan''s order, he immediately denied it.


    Han Xuan suddenly understood and ordered: "withdraw, withdraw from hulugu immediately. Back up! Back up


    "Retreat!"


    Shamoko yelled after him.


    Then, shamoko, holding the flower of Tribulus terrestris, retreated directly. As soon as he retreated, the wuximan soldiers under his command no longer resisted, gave up fighting and retreated like a tide.


    Han Xuan also retreated quickly.


    Fighting on the battlefield, because Han Xuan''s retreat, soldiers no longer stay, quickly retreat. One by one, the soldiers retreated, and the soldiers who fell behind became the people who were slaughtered.


    "Kill


    "Kill Han Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered one after another, taking the soldiers to hide and kill the people who fell behind. With the killing of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, Han Sui''s soldiers, even Jin Xuan''s soldiers in Wuling County, were killed constantly.


    "I surrender!"


    In the crowd, there were soldiers shouting to surrender.


    "I will surrender!"


    "I''m down!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there are many shouts. With this sound, more and more soldiers fell behind, constantly kneeling down to surrender, dare not resist.


    This situation aggravated the situation that Han Xuan was defeated like a mountain, which made Han Xuan retreat in panic and dare not resist any more.


    In his heart, shamoko was also a little alarmed.


    Although his soldiers ran fast, some of them fell behind and were killed. He looked at Han Xuan not far away and said in a loud voice: "Han Taishou, Zhang Xiu is in hot pursuit. If we can''t get rid of Zhang Xiu, our forces will be completely consumed. "


    Han Xuan turned his eyes and said, "I remember a place called Wangshan in the northeast of the entrance to hulugu Valley, where the terrain is easy to garrison and there is water on the mountain. Let''s pull back and guard with the help of Wangshan town. "


    Today''s situation is irresistible.


    If we continue to retreat, we may not be able to get rid of Zhang Xiu, or even lead to the killing of all our soldiers. So Han Xuan chose to retreat to Wangshan and consider the rest.

 Chapter 677

    Wangshan is located in Linxiang County, six miles northeast of hulugu valley. The terrain is not particularly dangerous, but because there is only one road up the mountain, and the surrounding slopes are densely forested, and the mountains are winding and undulating, so it is easier to garrison.


    Therefore, it became the place for Han Xuan to retreat.


    When Zhang Xiu learns that Han Xuan retreats to Wangshan, a smile rises from the corner of her mouth. In today''s situation, this is exactly what he wants to see.


    It was easy for Han Xuan to retreat to Wangshan.


    After all, six li road is not far or near, and can be easily reached.


    Zhang Xiu followed the cover and killed all the way to the foot of the mountain, but did not continue climbing. Han Xuan was allowed to retreat to the mountain, and Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed at the foot of the mountain.


    Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others began to count the prisoners and the losses of the war.


    An hour later, all the results have been counted.


    In the hulugu war, more than 1600 soldiers died under Zhang Xiu''s command. However, more than 6800 enemies were killed and nearly 8000 soldiers were captured.


    Most of the others fled into the mountain with Han Xuan. Now Han Xuan has no more than 15000 troops, and his strength is very weak.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    Zhang Xiu sent people to call Sima Yi, Guoyuan and Pang Tong and said, "in the hulugu war, we defeated Han Xuan. The first stage plan has been a success. The next step is to further weaken the forces of the four Prefects. What''s your plan for that? "


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "Lord, from my point of view, Han Xuan will not be trapped in the mountain."


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Pang Tong explained: "even if Han Xuan''s soldiers carry dry food, they won''t last long. Therefore, Han Xuan will definitely break through and go to Linyuan county. Next, we just need to sit at the foot of the mountain and stop Han Xuan. "


    Sima Yi took over and said, "in fact, we trapped Han Xuan in Wangshan. He couldn''t withdraw to Linyuan county. Han Xuan will have two choices. First, send someone to break through the encirclement and ask Linyuan County for help, so that Linyuan county can send troops. "


    "Second, send people to Wuling county to ask for help from Jinxuan."


    Sima Yi said, "whatever it is, it''s good for us. Previously, we besieged Han Xuan and ambushed him. Next, we can do the same thing again, continue to surround the area and ambush the Jinxuan army again. "


    Zhang Xiu had a thoughtful look on her face.


    What Sima Yi or Pang Tong said is both reasonable and feasible.


    It''s just that the plan is not perfect.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "I''m going to make subtle adjustments to the next plan. On the basis of your two strategies, I think so... "


    Pang Tong said, "my Lord has a good plan. I think it''s feasible."


    "It''s feasible, but it''s difficult, but it''s worth a try," Guoyuan said. Once we succeed, this battle will be easier for us. It''s even easier to deal with Jin Xuan and others. "


    Sima Yi also agreed.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "since there are no opinions, let''s have a try."


    "Try it yourself."


    Pang Tong, Guoyuan and others spoke together.


    The look on each face, there is an expression of expectation. Zhang Xiu immediately called Zhao Yun and Ma Chao to make a quick arrangement to deal with the coming war.


    Han Xuan on the mountain leads the troops.


    However, Han Xuan is now in a sad mood. In the first battle of hulugu, he was defeated like a mountain, and he was defeated miserably. According to the statistics, of the 15000 soldiers under his command, there are almost less than 2000 left.


    There are less than 8000 soldiers left under shamoko''s command.


    Jinxuan has less than 1000 soldiers in Wuling county.


    There are only ten thousand troops on the mountain.


    The rest of the soldiers, the fugitives, the surrenders, there are many missing.


    Shamoke said: "Han Taishou, you have lost the battle with Zhang Xiu. What are you going to do next? "


    Han Xuan sighed dejectedly: "now this situation, can only strive to retreat to Linxiang county. As long as we return to Linxiang county and rely on the strength of the city, we will not be afraid of Zhang Xiu''s troops. "


    Shamoke nodded: "Zhang Xiu is at the foot of the mountain. Now, can we return to Linxiang county?"


    "Yes


    Han Xuan''s eyes fell on shamoke and said, "as long as the soldiers under the command of manwang work together, when we go down the mountain and your soldiers stop Zhang Xiu''s army, we can retreat calmly. Even if you retreat by hulugu, you can leave. However, it depends on whether manwang is willing to send troops. "


    "No way!"


    Shamoko didn''t even think about it. He said directly, "it''s not easy for the soldiers under my command to escort you and cut off the rear for you. Such a fight is bound to cause countless deaths and injuries. "


    Han Xuan''s eyes were rolling.


    Now, he can only rely on shamoko, otherwise, he will not be able to withdraw to Linxiang county.Han Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "as long as the king of man escorts me back to Linxiang County, I will give him 40000 stone grains, plus 1000 sets of armor and 3000 swords. Man Wang, what do you think? "


    When shamoko heard this, his eyes lit up.


    He is a money addict. When he hears 40000 stone grains, he gets excited.


    Han Xuan continued to bewitch: "forty thousand stone grain is not a small amount. Before, manwang promised to fight with me, only 30000 stone grain, and nothing else. Now, as long as you stand at the back of my palace and let the soldiers resist Zhang Xiu, when I return to Linxiang County, you can get 40000 stone grain, 1000 sets of armor and 3000 swords. "


    After a pause, Han Xuan induced: "is manwang unwilling to do anything that is beneficial but harmless?"


    Shamoko''s breathing, gradually rapid.


    He had an idea.


    Just escorting Han Xuan to Linxiang county more than 30 miles away, he was quite willing to do such a thing. You can get ten thousand stone grain, one thousand sets of armor and three thousand swords with one escort. It''s a lucrative business.


    Shamoko did not respond immediately.


    I''m still thinking about it.


    He also wants to get more benefits, because he can now wait for the price. Now this situation, not his anxiety, is very anxious Han Xuan, in such a premise, he can blackmail Han Xuan.


    After thinking about it in his heart, shamoko continued: "I, Mr. Han, it''s too petty to have such a condition. My condition is very simple, 40000 stone grain, 2000 sets of armor, 6000 swords. As long as Han Taishou agrees, I will act immediately. "


    Han Xuan frowned, very dignified.


    In fact, there are still some holes in shamoko''s conditions, which can be said to be a lion''s big mouth.


    Han Xuan said: "shamoko, it''s not proper for you to do so. You have the intention of taking advantage of the fire. Between you and me, you help me now, and we can have more contacts in the future. "


    He was still a little reluctant.


    Swords and armor, which are weapons on the battlefield, are crucial.


    Shamoko shrugged his shoulders and said with an indifferent look: "Han Taishou, I don''t intend to have any contact with you? If you associate with Han people, you may be counted one day. "


    "At that time, I''m afraid it will be sold, and I''ll have to count the money for you."


    "I don''t have any plans to get in touch with you. If you want me to send troops, give me enough money. In fact, if I want to take advantage of the fire, I can threaten you by leaving Wangshan now. "


    "This is the real robbery, but I didn''t do it," shamoko said


    When Han Xuan heard this, he felt reasonable.


    Shamoko is a cunning thief.


    Han Xuan took a deep breath and said, "no problem. I promise your terms. Take a rest, and then we immediately go down the mountain and head for Linxiang county. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    There was a smile on shamoko''s face.


    As long as you enter Linxiang County, you will have the opportunity to get food and money. He is not worried about Han Xuan''s repentance, because under the current situation, whether Han Xuan can keep Linxiang county without his help is unknown.

 Chapter 678

    Half an hour is fleeting.


    For a short half an hour, shamoko''s soldiers were only slightly relieved of their fatigue, and their injuries were only temporarily controlled. The same is true of Han Xuan''s soldiers. Han Xuan, however, inquired about the situation at the foot of the mountain in this short time.


    Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed at the foot of the mountain.


    No matter what Zhang Xiu''s army is, what Han Xuan wants to do is to use shamoko''s forces to fight for an early return to Linxiang county.


    As he was about to send out his troops, shamoko looked at Han Xuan and said, "when you go down the mountain, let your soldiers take the lead. Let them be the vanguard and hold down Zhang Xiu''s army for a while. Then, I''ll take the soldiers to the rear of the hall and escort you away. "


    "Yes!"


    Han Xuan responded directly.


    In today''s situation, we can only rely on the power of shamoko. So even if shamoko says that he wants his soldiers to take the lead, Han Xuan has no opinion. He just wants to return early.


    "Let''s go!"


    Han Xuan gave the order to send troops.


    With an order, Han Xuan''s only remaining 10000 soldiers went down the mountain. After all the soldiers went down the mountain, Han Xuan''s three thousand clans went directly to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Shamoko escorts Han Xuan to hulugu, preparing to break through hulugu to Linxiang county.


    This scene, in Zhang Xiu''s expectation.


    More than 3000 Han Xuan soldiers killed in the camp, Zhao Yun directly led the troops to meet them. With Zhao Yun''s strength and the fighting spirit of the soldiers, it is easy to block the attack of these soldiers.


    On the other hand, before the wuximan soldiers who intended to go to the entrance of hulugu Valley approached, they saw Ma Chao leading 7000 soldiers to kill wuximan, Han Xuan and others who blocked the advance.


    The two sides mingled to fight.


    Soon after, Zhang Xiu found the location of shamoko. Instead of taking charge of the barracks, Zhang Xiu gives Pang Tong the right of command and lets Pang Tong command the soldiers, but he drives them out with a gun.


    Zhang Xiu is invincible in the eyes of wuximan soldiers. As soon as he appeared on the battlefield, the soldiers of wuximan retreated and did not dare to step forward.


    "Go back, get out of the way!"


    "The murderer of the Han people is coming again. Step back."


    "Dodge, dodge!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there are many shouts. As long as the wuximan soldiers Zhang Xiu met along the way did not dare to stop them, they all quickly backed away, with a look of awe and fear in their eyes.


    As a result, Zhang Xiu is like a nobody.


    Not long ago, Zhang Xiu was less than 20 steps away from shamoko. Within 20 steps, in front of Zhang Xiu, there were no soldiers who dared to stop. They all dodged.


    "Shamoko, take your life!"


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun to sprint forward, the speed is extremely fast.


    Shamoke''s face suddenly changed when he saw Zhang Xiu. His hands are still wrapped with gauze. It''s easier for him to attack ordinary soldiers with Tribulus terrestris. It doesn''t matter.


    Once on Zhang Xiu, this split tiger mouth, the injury will certainly aggravate.


    Shamoke didn''t dare to fight Zhang Xiu. He didn''t even think about it and withdrew directly. After shamoke took refuge, his wuximan soldiers were killed by Yang, Zhang Xiu and the soldiers.


    For a moment, wuximan was defeated like a mountain, and was defeated again.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command were fighting with a roar, and they were overjoyed.


    Cool!


    What a killing!


    The fighting on the battlefield has been crushed to one side. Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, even though they used to be private soldiers, have fought several times now, especially when they have been killed successfully.


    If they follow Zhang Xiu to fight, when they kill for the first time, their fighting is not smooth, their lack of training and fear of going to the battlefield will be exposed.


    But for the first time, Zhang Xiu rushed with her and everything went well. Successive victories laid the foundation for the courage and fighting spirit of the soldiers. These soldiers already have high morale and courage to fight and kill.


    They are sure to win.


    Under the protection of Pro guards, Han Xuan intended to break through. But now Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, crossing the official road, blocked Han Xuan''s road, resulting in Han Xuan unable to move forward.


    After fighting for a while, shamoko felt so sad to see his barbarians die. He no longer resisted, quickly came to Han Xuan''s side, said: "Han Taishou, withdraw, withdraw to Wangshan."


    "No, we can''t withdraw!"


    Han Xuan shook his head and said: "now we will withdraw to the mountain. Next, it will be very difficult for us to retreat. So we can''t withdraw. Now we withdraw, it''s all over. "


    Shamoko gritted his teeth and said, "Han Xuan, I''m not talking to you, I''m giving you orders, I''m telling you a decision. In the present situation, if you do not withdraw, I will withdraw immediately. "


    "Withdraw!"


    Han Xuan heard, but ordered.


    Shamoko immediately gave the order to retreat, covered Han Xuan and his party, quickly retreated, and returned to Wangshan. Just this retreat, the soldiers under shamoko''s command suffered countless casualties.Wuximan lost at least one thousand people in this war. The rest of Han Xuan''s soldiers were more than 1000 soldiers. Although Zhang Xiu won a great victory, she didn''t catch up.


    He stood at the foot of the mountain, looking at Han Xuan who was retreating to the mountain quickly, with a successful look on his face.


    It''s done!


    Next, let''s look at Pang Tong.


    In fact, shortly after the fight, Zhang Xiu asked Pang Tong to change his clothes, put on Han Xuan''s soldiers'' clothes, and then retreated to the mountain. In order to protect pangtong''s safety, Deng Zhan and Shi a also accompanied him.


    Next, let''s look at Pang Tong.


    Back on the mountain, Han Xuan looked at the wounded soldiers with a silent expression.


    The breakthrough failed.


    Originally, he wanted to use shamoko''s forces to break through the encirclement, leave hulugu, and then return to Linxiang county to gather the forces of Changsha County. But now, Han Xuan has no chance.


    He has less than 2000 troops under his command. The number of wuximan soldiers under shamoko''s command is less than 7000, which is a great loss.


    Even after returning to the mountain, shamoko counted the soldiers under his command and looked at the wounded soldiers one by one, with a look of ferocity and anger on his rough cheeks.


    Damn Jinxuan!


    It cost him so much.


    If Jin Xuan had not asked him to escort Han Xuan, he would not have come to Changsha County, and the loss of his soldiers would not have been too great. All this is caused by Jin Xuan.


    When he returns to Wuling County, he must find Jin Xuan to settle the accounts, and Jin Xuan must compensate him for his losses.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier came quickly.


    The barbarian soldier came to shamoko and reported: "king, someone wants to see you. He said that he was ordered by the governor of Han."


    "Come here, please!"


    Said shamoko.


    The distance between him and Han Xuan is less than 200 steps. Just between each other, separated by many soldiers, each other can not see. He is puzzled, Han Xuan does not come personally, send someone to look for him to do.


    Soon Pang Tong came to shamoko. Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was for ordinary soldiers to lobby shamoko. But Pang Tong thought that if ordinary soldiers came, things might not be done well.


    That''s why Pang Tong came in person.


    Anyway, with the protection of Shi a and Deng Zhan, Pang Tong didn''t worry about his own safety. Shamoko looked at Pang Tong and his eyes narrowed. Because the man at the moment made him suspicious.


    In front of him, he seemed to be a scholar, not a soldier under Han Xuan''s command. Although the other person''s appearance is very ugly, but standing in front of him, the air is self-confident, self arrogant temperament, not ordinary people can have.

 Chapter 679

    Pang Tong arched his hand and said, "Man Wang, would you like to hold back and talk with me?"


    When shamoko heard Pang Tong''s words, he was surprised in his dark eyes. He was not a fool. He immediately thought of a possibility. But shamoko soon regained his peace and said, "follow me!"


    Pang Tong immediately followed and asked Shi a and Deng Zhan to wait in place. Soon after, shamoko took Pang Tong to a remote and secluded place, and asked the soldiers to guard ten steps away, forbidding anyone to come near.


    Shamoko said, "are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Pang Tong laughed and confidently said, "manwang is really smart. I''m Pang Tong. I''m a junior around the Lord."


    Shamoko said: "you are Zhang Xiu''s man. You dare to join the army and come to see me. You are so bold. Zhang Xiu wounded my hand and killed my soldiers. It''s a bitter feud. If you come to see me now, aren''t you afraid that I will kill you? "


    Pang Tong shrugged his shoulders and said, "if manwang wants to kill me, he won''t talk to me alone. There are so many people like me in Pang Tong''s younger generation. My life and death are not worth mentioning. Especially when I came to the mountain, I was ready to be killed. If you don''t even have the preparation and courage, why climb the mountain? "


    Shamoko snorted with admiration in his eyes.


    Pang Tong is not simple.


    "I don''t know what''s the matter with Mr. Pang climbing the mountain to see Wang," he asked


    Pang Tong said, "make a deal with manwang."


    "What deal?" said shamoko


    Pang Tong was not impatient and said: "first, manwang went to see Han Xuan and asked Han Xuan to arrange two groups of people to go down the mountain. One group of people went to Linyuan County for help and sent troops to Linyuan County for rescue. Another group of people went to Wuling county and asked Jin Xuan to bring his troops to Wangshan for rescue. "


    "Second, after finishing the first thing, manwang took advantage of Han Xuan''s inattention to kill Han Xuan directly, and then controlled all the soldiers under Han Xuan''s command. After the success of manwang, our Lord will give wuximan a lot of benefits. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "what does manwang mean?"


    After hearing this, shamoko narrowed his eyes and quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart. He and Jin Xuan cooperate for the sake of interests. If you cooperate with Zhang Xiu, you can also have interests. It''s not bad to cooperate with Zhang Xiu.


    Han Xuan promised to give him food and armor, but it depends on the current situation. Han Xuan can''t protect himself. Where can he give food and armor.


    Zhang Xiu is different.


    Zhang Xiu, as a great Han''s Taiwei, is rich and powerful. He can''t use up any profit he can give him.


    Shamoko immediately said: "as long as Zhang Xiu gives me 100000 stone grain, I will agree to his terms. Not only finish his arrangement, but also kill Han Xuan instead of him. "


    Pang Tong laughed and took off his sword from his waist. His action of taking the sword startled shamoko. Saw shamoko immediately step back, eyes alert, fierce stare at Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong said: "don''t panic, Man Wang. I don''t intend to kill you. What''s more, I can''t kill you with my strength. Your conditions are too harsh. We are not talking about conditions, but robbing. I didn''t plan to go down the mountain alive. I asked manwang to kill me, and then he took my head and asked Han Xuan for credit. "


    "You..."


    Shamoko''s face was embarrassed.


    Unexpectedly, Pang Tong was so strong.


    Shamoko also knew that 100000 stone grain was for fun, and he was reluctant to kill Pang Tong. Otherwise, how to ask for the benefit of Zhang Xiu? He didn''t take the sword and said, "Mr. Pang is a wise man with courage and insight. I admire him. One hundred thousand stone grain is a joke. Mr. Pang, please don''t take it seriously. "


    Pang Tong said: "actually speaking of the terms of the transaction, I have an idea."


    Mr. Pang, please


    Pang Tong said: "I can promise on behalf of Taiwei that after Taking Changsha County, I will check hanxuan''s residence and all the money I get will go to manwang. If King man is willing to attack Jin Xuan together with his Lord, what if all the gains from defeating Jin Xuan and checking Jin Xuan''s residence belong to King man? "


    "Good!"


    Shamoko didn''t even think about it. He answered directly.


    As a man in Wuling county all the year round, he knew the wealth of Jin Xuan. In the same way, Han Xuan is the prefect of Changsha County, and the wealth of his family is countless.


    If you can get the house of Han Xuan and Jin Xuan, shamoko will make a lot of profits.


    This is a great benefit.


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "in that case, I will be on the mountain, waiting for the news of manwang."


    "Don''t worry, Mr. Pang. I immediately asked Han Xuan to send someone down the mountain for help. After these two groups of soldiers leave Wangshan, I will take Han Xuan. "


    Pang Tong said, "I''ll wait for the good news from manwang."


    Shamoko stood up and went back to his army. At the same time, he asked the soldiers to protect pangtong. This is not to monitor pangtong, but to protect pangtong''s safety and avoid problems.


    In a short time, shamoko was in front of Han Xuan. When he saw Han Xuan, he said in a deep voice: "now, the situation is that you can''t kill him. My soldiers have suffered countless losses. Now, what should we do? "Han Xuan was speechless for a moment.


    At this time, he didn''t know what to do, because he couldn''t break through and was trapped in Wangshan.


    Han Xuan clenched his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu forced us to Wangshan, and most likely hoped that we would be trapped by Wangshan. Now the food on our soldiers won''t last long. By that time, the soldiers will have no food, and there will be chaos. Such a situation, must be Zhang Xiu happy to see its success. The reason why Zhang Xiu is like this is to wait for our civil strife. "


    "No matter what the situation, I don''t care. Now, we have to come up with a solution. "


    "Alas..."


    Han Xuan scratched his head with a helpless look.


    He didn''t know what to do now.


    Shamoko continued: "why don''t we break through now and go to Wuling county."


    "No use!"


    Han Xuan shook his head and said, "we can''t even withdraw to Linxiang county. It''s a fool''s dream to retreat back to Wuling county. Zhang Xiu''s army is at the foot of the mountain. Under the blockade of Zhang Xiu''s army, we can''t break through at all. "


    Shamoko said: "if so, keep watch. Write a letter immediately, send people to Linxiang county and Wuling county respectively, inform the troops of Linxiang county and Jinxuan of Wuling County, let them lead their own troops to rescue. We can''t kill them. We have to rely on others. "


    When Han Xuan heard this, he brightened his eyes and said, "what the king of man said is like the morning bell and the evening drum, which makes me suddenly enlightened. Now we can''t break through, we have to send someone for help. "


    He looked like dancing. When he was happy, he arranged for people to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, quickly wrote two letters, arranged for two groups of soldiers to go down the mountain to Wuling county cemetery Xi''an and Changsha County Linxiang County for help. "


    After all this, Han Xuancai breathed a sigh of relief.


    Shamoko did not stay and left directly. Now is not the time to kill Han Xuan. Once you kill now, it''s easy to scare the snake. If you want to kill Han Xuan, you have to wait for the soldiers arranged by Han Xuan to stay away before killing Han Xuan.

 Chapter 680

    As time went on, it was getting dark.


    On the mountain of Wangshan, only a few soldiers were left under Han Xuan''s command. They had already rested.


    After a day of running and fighting, I was already exhausted. Soldiers who were not seriously injured simply ate dry food and drank some cold water, then fell asleep early. Although the wounded soldiers had been bandaged, they could not sleep. They could only bear waves of pain from the wound and endure the physical pain.


    At this moment, the sentry who left Wangshan for help is far away.


    With his sword hanging from his waist, he stood up and strode to the position where Han Xuan was. In Han Xuan''s view, the relationship between him and Han Xuan is a grasshopper on the rope, so Han Xuan is very relieved of shamoko and has no vigilance.


    Shamoke came to Han Xuan. Han Xuan rubbed his tired face and arranged his scattered hair. He said, "manwang came in the night. I don''t know what''s the matter?"


    Shamoke stood beside Han Xuan. At the moment, the distance between them was less than one foot. As soon as he grinned, he stepped forward. His big hand, like a fan, flashed out and grabbed Han Xuan''s skirt.


    "Come here!"


    Sand Mo Ke low drinks a, on the hand dint, directly drag Han Xuan to the body front. Then, shamoko reaches for Han Xuan''s neck and shows his white teeth.


    Han Xuan is scared out of his wits at the moment.


    What''s going on?


    In his mind, he was still confused and didn''t understand why shamoko wanted to kill him.


    "Man Wang, what are you doing?"


    When Han Xuan spoke, his voice was a little hoarse. In the current situation, his throat is pinched by shamoko and he can''t break free. Even when he was tied around his neck by shamocco, he felt suffocated and unable to breathe.


    Shamoko said: "nature is to kill you, otherwise, what do I do with your neck?"


    One by one, Han Xuan''s bodyguards saw this, and surrounded him. One by one, the swords were displayed, but Han Xuan was controlled by others, and these soldiers did not dare to move, so they had to stay where they were.


    Han Xuan said hoarsely, "kill me, you can''t escape."


    "Ha ha..."


    Shamoko laughed, his face full of disdain. People like Han Xuan, kill them.


    Therefore, his hand immediately power.


    "Chaka!"


    A crisp sound came out in an instant.


    With this sound, Han Xuan''s neck was crooked, his eyes were wide open, his face was frozen, and his eyes were blank.


    Han Xuan, die!


    Shamoko killed Han Xuan. As soon as he released his hand, Han Xuan collapsed on the ground like a pool of mud. Shamoko held his head high and said, "Han Xuan was killed by Laozi. Who among you is going to avenge Han Xuan?"


    Han Xuan''s soldiers were afraid to step forward.


    Everyone was counselled.


    It''s true that shamoko''s body is strong and strong, and no one is shamoko''s opponent at all.


    Shamoko said: "now, all of you are honest. Don''t act rashly. Now, all of you, listen to Lao Tzu''s arrangement, or you will be killed. "


    Han Xuan''s soldiers dare not speak.


    Shamoko frightened Han Xuan''s soldiers and called his own wuximan to control Han Xuan''s soldiers. Then he came to Pang Tong and said with a smile, "Mr. Pang, Han Xuan is dead now. Next, what do you think we should do? "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "please escort all Han Xuan''s soldiers down the mountain with me and return to the Lord''s camp."


    "No, I''m not going!"


    Shamoko shook his head and said, "what if I was slaughtered by Zhang Xiu immediately after I went down the mountain?"


    Pang Tong said: "impossible."


    "Nothing in the world is impossible," he said coldly. Anything is possible, I say


    Pang Tong was a little surprised.


    This shamoko is obviously different from the rest of wuximan. Most of wuximan have no vision and are extremely dull. But in front of him, shamoko was very cunning and alert.


    Pang Tong said: "the reason is very simple. You follow me down the mountain. According to you, the Lord may kill you. But even if the Lord leads the army to encircle you, can he destroy all the wuximan under your command? "


    "Obviously not!"


    "Since we can''t eliminate all of them, there will surely be some fish who have missed the net."


    "Once these soldiers go to Linxiang county or Wuling County, it''s not good for my Lord. When the news spreads, the Lord''s plan to ambush Han Xuan''s army will be invalid. "


    Pang Tong said, "manwang is a smart man. He can understand me."


    After hearing this, shamoko thought it over carefully and thought it was really reasonable.


    Zhang Xiu dare not kill him.


    "Come on, I''ll follow you down the mountain."


    After thinking about it, shamoko didn''t delay any more time. He ordered his soldiers to gather up Han Xuan''s body, and then he took all the more than 1000 soldiers under Han Xuan''s command and escorted Han Xuan''s soldiers down the mountain with wuximan under his command.After all the people went down the mountain, they went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news of shamoke''s downhill, she looked happy.


    It''s done!


    Zhang Xiu personally went to the gate of the camp to meet him. She didn''t say much when she met him. She took over the Han Xuan soldiers escorted by him and met him in the Chinese army tent.


    Shamoko sat casually and couldn''t wait to say, "Zhang Taiwei, I''ve killed Han Xuan. Besides, I have also escorted Han Xuan''s soldiers. Now, whether it''s time for Taiwei Zhang to fulfill his promise and take Linxiang County in Changsha County first, I want everything in hanxuan mansion. "


    "Not for the time being!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "what I have promised is nothing less. Manwang can imagine that if he goes to attack Linxiang county now, it is not the same as telling the garrison of Linxiang county that Han Xuan is dead. "


    "It means telling Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du of Wuling county that Han Xuan has been killed. Under such circumstances, Jin Xuan will not come to the rescue and the plan will fail. "


    "To send troops, it is not too late to ambush the troops of Linxiang county and Jinxuan, and then to capture the mansion."


    Shamoko looked confident and said, "it''s very easy to wipe out Jin Xuan and Linxiang county''s new force, and then capture Han Xuan''s residence, even Jin Xuan''s residence."


    Shamoko said, "what the Taiwei said is reasonable. I will follow the Taiwei''s instructions."


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    Shamoko is easy to lobby.


    But for the time being, Zhang Xiu hasn''t said anything about solicitation. Now it''s not too late to win over shamoko after he has stabilized shamoko and defeated Jin Xuan''s army.


    Shamoko changed his words and said: "Zhang Taiwei, now Han Xuan''s body and his soldiers have been handed over to you. Next, do you need me to go back to Wangshan? "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered directly.


    Around Wangshan, Zhang Xiu arranged many sentries. Once there is any movement around Wangshan, Zhang Xiu will know immediately, so even if shamoko does not return to Wangshan, there is no influence.


    Now, just wait for the result.

 Chapter 681

    Zhang Xiu sits in Wangshan and takes Wangshan as a stronghold, quietly waiting for the news from the sentinel. Two days later, Zhang Xiu got the news that there were 6000 elite soldiers coming to Wangshan in Linxiang county.


    The leader of the army was the captain of Changsha County.


    The six thousand troops of Linxiang county were put together by the captains of Changsha County. The captain of Changsha County intends to rescue Han Xuan, but Zhang Xiu directly sends a large army to defeat the rescue forces.


    After the defeat of the commander of Changsha County, he did not dare to come back, so he went straight back.


    Zhang Xiu still returned to Wangshan and waited quietly, waiting for the news from Wuling county.


    In late November, the news that Han Xuan was trapped in Wangshan finally reached Linyuan County of Wuling county. The sentry sent by Han Xuan sees Jin Xuan and hands over the letter written by Han Xuan.


    In Han Xuan''s letter, he wrote about how he was ambushed, how he failed to break through the encirclement, and how he asked for help. All things are written in the letter. Let Jin Xuan and others send troops as soon as possible to help Han Xuan.


    When Jin Xuan got the news, he summoned everyone, Gong Zhi, Zhao fan and Liu Du, and gathered in the hall of the prefecture.


    Jin Xuan said in a deep voice: "Han Xuan led his troops to Changsha County. In Linxiang County, he was ambushed by Zhang Xiu. Today, Han Xuan is trapped in Wangshan in Linxiang county. Now, he''s sending for help. "


    When Gong Zhi heard this, he couldn''t wait to say, "Lord, didn''t you ask shamoko to send troops? More than ten thousand elites under shamoko''s command, together with Han Xuan''s troops, make up thirty thousand people. Isn''t it against Zhang Xiu? "


    "No


    Jin Xuan shook his head and answered.


    Gong Zhi said again, "what''s the matter?"


    Jin Xuan gave a general description of the details, the losses of Han Xuan and Sha Moke, and the failure of breaking through the siege. Finally, he said, "Han Xuan retreated to Wangshan. We can''t advance and retreat. Let''s go to the rescue. What do you say about this?"


    Zhao Fan said in a deep voice: "in my opinion, Zhang Xiu defeated Han Xuan and even shamoko at that time. With Zhang Xiu''s strength, I''m afraid it''s not impossible to attack Wangshan and completely wipe out Han Xuan. "


    "The reason why Zhang Xiu didn''t do that and why she trapped Han Xuan in Wangshan was to surround the site and wait for our soldiers to go to Wangshan for rescue."


    "Before that, Zhang Xiu attacked Changsha County, making Han Xuan come back to help, and Han Xuan ambushed."


    "Now, we go to Changsha county again. Maybe it''s the ambush of Zhang Xiu."


    "I don''t recommend sending troops," Zhao said


    Liu Du nodded and echoed: "my opinion is the same as that of Zhao Taishou. Once we rush to Changsha County, I''m afraid it''s not suitable. Even, I think Zhang Xiu will not only gather around to fight for help, but more likely to attack the West and the East again. "


    "Just as the former governor of Jin said, Zhang Xiu suddenly came to Linyuan county? At that time, the situation will be even worse. So I think we should stick to Wuling county. "


    Liu Du said: "I don''t think Han Xuan can be concerned about this war."


    Both Zhao fan and Liu Du chose to protect themselves. At the critical moment, they chose to abandon Han Xuan.


    Jin Xuan turned his eyes and said, "but our four counties have made an agreement to keep watch and help each other. At this time, regardless of Han Xuan, it''s a bit out of the ordinary. "


    Liu Du said, "there is no way."


    Zhao fan nodded in agreement.


    The look on Jin Xuan''s face is thoughtful. Even if Liu Du and Zhao fan insist, Jin Xuan''s opposition may affect their alliance.


    It''s hard to make a decision for a while.


    His eyes fell on Gong Zhi and cast a searching look.


    Gong Zhi shook his robe and stood still, then said: "Lord, Zhao Taishou, Liu Taishou, I think it''s inappropriate to ignore Han Xuan''s life and death. At least, there are four bad effects. "


    Zhao Fan said: "but it doesn''t hurt to say so!"


    Liu Du also said, "tell me!"


    Jin Xuan stroked his beard and waited for Gong Zhi to open his mouth.


    Gong Zhi said: "first, it''s very simple. It''s the influence of reputation."


    "As the LORD said just now, it is well known that Wuling, Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang counties are united to keep watch and help each other. Han Xuan turned to us for help. Wuling, Lingling and Guiyang let them go. What do people think of them? I''m afraid the scholars in the world will despise you. "


    "Second, it will lead to internal strife."


    "Now the unanimous order is not to send troops to rescue Han Xuan. After the fall of Han Xuan, Zhang Xiu will not attack Wuling County next time, but will go to attack Guiyang County or Lingling county. "


    "I don''t know. Will the three still work together? With Han Xuan''s lessons, I''m afraid they will be suspicious of each other and sweep the snow in front of the door. Then the alliance will break up. "


    Gong Zhi talks about it. His first reason is that Jin Xuan and others look normal. When Gong Zhi''s second reason came out, the expressions on all his faces changed slightly, and they looked at each other.


    Jin Xuan agrees with Gong Zhi''s analysis.From the bottom of his heart, he hopes to go to the rescue of Han Xuan, because without Han Xuan, the other three counties may eventually be unable to support themselves.


    "What about the third?" Jin Xuan asked


    Gong Zhi continued: "third, if we don''t let Han Xuan be saved, Zhang Xiu will easily seize the whole Changsha County. Of course, according to Liu Taishou, in case Zhang Xiu is killed here on our way to rescue, how can we resist then? "


    "I''m willing to stay in Linyuan county. After my lord left, as long as he didn''t return to Linyuan County, I would not open the gate. In this way, we can guard Linyuan county and ensure the safety of Wuling county. "


    Gong Zhi said: "the four counties in Jingnan are a whole. The loss of Changsha county is the prelude to the fall of the four counties. "


    "Fourth, if we don''t save Han Xuan, we are weakening our strength. Although the forces of Han Xuan and shamoko have been weakened. But shamoko can recruit more barbarians, and Han Xuan can recruit more soldiers. "


    "If we don''t rescue, we are giving up the forces of Changsha County."


    "In particular, if we do not rescue, we can imagine shamoko''s anger. He withdrew from Linxiang county. Once he returned to Wuling County, he would be angry with us. "


    "At that time, like Zhang Xiu, shamoke will attack Wuling county and weaken our strength."


    Gong Zhi said with four reasons, folded his hands, arched his hands and said: "the above is my worry. Please think twice. Today''s situation, because of the benevolence of a thought, may keep Jingnan four counties. It may also be that all the troops will be destroyed in a moment. "


    Hoo!!


    Hearing Gong Zhi''s eloquence, Jin Xuan breathed a sigh and said with admiration, "if you don''t, I will go astray."


    Zhao fan also said: "in this way, we really want to rescue Han Xuan."


    Liu Du stared at Gong Zhi and said, "Mr. Gong, as you said just now, in order to ensure the safety of the rear area, you must be in Linyuan county. Even if Zhang xiusha comes, he can''t open the gate. "


    Gong Zhi looked confident and said: "in fact, there is no danger in Linyuan county. The reason is very simple. After continuous fighting, Zhang Xiu has damaged quite a number of soldiers. "


    "Linyuan County, as the seat of Wuling County, has a tall city and a strong wall. Zhang Xiu is just more than ten thousand soldiers. It''s almost impossible to conquer Linyuan county. "


    "As long as I''m in the city, I don''t open the gate, and no one is allowed to enter. No matter how clever Zhang Xiu is, no matter how powerful Zhang Xiu is, it''s impossible to enter."


    Gong Zhi is very determined.


    Jin Xuan nodded his head and said, "that''s true!"


    Liu Du said: "if so, send troops. This time, I''ll be a soldier. "


    Zhao fan also said: "I also mobilized all the soldiers under my command to fight."


    When Gong Zhi heard that the three had reached a consensus, he put on an intriguing smile and returned to his seat.

 Chapter 682

    Jin Xuan, Liu Du and Zhao fan led their respective armies to battle. Even if Jin Xuan gave Han Xuan 5000 excellent soldiers, in fact, Jin Xuan recruited another 5000 soldiers in a short time to enrich his troops.


    The three prefectures, together with 45000 troops, had nearly 50000 troops. They were on their way in a mighty and fierce manner. No matter Jin Xuan, Liu Du or Zhao fan, they were all confident.


    They are aware that there is no suspense in this war and they are sure to win.


    After leaving Linyuan County, the army sped up. From Linyuan county to Linxiang County, although not too far away, but separated by a Yiyang County. Only by crossing Yiyang County can we enter Linxiang county.


    When Jin Xuan and others led their troops to the northwest of Yiyang County, they got the latest news that Zhang Xiu''s army was still stationed in Wangshan, trapping Han Xuan.


    In Yiyang County, the army went smoothly without any obstruction.


    When Jin Xuan''s three men crossed Yiyang County and entered the western border of Linxiang County, Jin Xuan got the news from the sentinel that soldiers from Linxiang County went to the rescue and were defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    With Zhang Xiu firmly stationed, Jin Xuan''s three men became more and more determined. Zhang Xiu''s troops were stationed in Wangshan for the purpose of encircling the site and waiting for them to go to the rescue.


    Just so, Jin Xuan three people don''t worry about being ambushed, very determined to go, straight to Wangshan.


    It''s getting colder in early December. Especially this year''s winter, as always, and last year''s general cold, Linxiang county has begun to snow.


    Although it is not snow, but snow flying, covering the earth.


    Jin Xuan''s army braved the wind and snow, and when they arrived near Wangshan, they went straight to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Jin Xuan, Liu Du and Zhao fan were at the front of the formation. The three were all in cloaks, with an air of dignity, and more confidence and momentum on their faces.


    Jin Xuan said in a loud voice: "where is Zhang Xiu


    With Jin Xuan''s cry, soon, Zhang Xiu leads Ma Chao and Zhao Yun out. With a smile on his face, he said, "Oh, it turns out that the governor Jin has arrived. I have been waiting for you for a long time


    Jin Xuandi said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu, withdraw from Linxiang County immediately and go back to Xiangyang. You occupy Nanjun, Nanyang and Jiangxia. No one cares about your business. But if you want to touch the four counties in Jingnan, it''s a fool''s dream. "


    "Yes, the fool dreams!"


    Liu Du and Zhao fan speak together.


    Both of them hold their heads high, looking at Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t get angry and said in a deep voice: "I don''t know who is Lingling Liudu and who is Guiyang Zhaofan?"


    "I''m Liu Du!"


    Liu Du stroked his beard under his jaw and shook his cloak behind him, which made him look very imposing.


    "I''m Zhao fan!"


    Zhao fan also answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "good. I already know you. Since you have made a choice to fight against me with Jin Xuan, next, when you fight on the battlefield, I will leave you all dead. "


    "Rampant!"


    Liu Du looked disdainful.


    Immediately, Liu Du asked: "all the soldiers, who dares to take Zhang Xiu for me?"


    "Lord, please fight


    Voice down, but see Liu Du''s command, a tall, bearded middle-aged man rushed out. He braved the wind and snow to rush out of the army, stopped 30 steps away from Zhang Xiu''s camp, pointed at Zhang Xiu with a mountain axe in his hand, and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, Xiao''er, Xing Daorong, do you dare to fight here?"


    Xing Daorong''s eyes were full of greed.


    Zhang Xiu was the supreme captain of the dynasty.


    If he killed Zhang Xiu, he would be famous all over the world.


    Stepping on the bones of Zhang Xiu and stepping on the peak is something Xing Daorong is happy to see. Especially other natural powers, in the army is the enemy of ten thousand people, Lingling County in the battlefield, invincible, no one is his opponent.


    Xing Daorong thinks that it is easy to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    "Take my gun!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand, a soldier handed over the overlord''s gun. Zhang Xiu took the gun and rubbed the barrel. The reason for this is that it''s cold in the cold weather. After rubbing for a while, the barrel of the gun loses its chill, which is more conducive to attack.


    "Kill


    As soon as Zhang Xiu kicks the horse''s belly that pursues the wind, the wind is as fast as lightning, and she goes out of the camp directly.


    "Take my shot!"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu was straddling on the horse''s back with both legs to stabilize her figure. He holds the gun in both hands, and the overlord gun rotates in the air. With the barrel of the gun running, the force of the gun becomes stronger and stronger.


    It''s ready!


    Zhang Xiu should pool her strength and work hard to defeat Xing Daorong.


    Although Liu Du''s troops are weak in fighting capacity, they are large in number. If Zhang Xiu wants to defeat each other''s morale, she has to kill Xing Daorong directly. This is a shortcut.


    Said late, then fast, in a twinkling of an eye they met.


    Xing Daorong in the hands of the mountain axe, swing sweep. The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand falls down in the posture of cutting rocks."Dang!"


    The weapons collided with each other, and the sound was shrill and harsh.


    The surge of power burst out from the impact. On Xing Daorong''s rough cheek, his expression changed again and again, and he had a look of unbearable pain. Under the impact of strength, he held the axe''s hands, his arms trembled constantly, and endured great strength.


    Especially the other hands holding the handle of the mountain axe, the mouth of the tiger directly tears, and there is blood flowing out.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu herself is not affected, the overlord gun swung down again.


    Unable to escape, Xing Daorong had to bite his teeth and swung his axe to resist.


    When the two weapons collided with each other, Xing Daorong snorted. His hand, which was torn by the tiger''s mouth, was in severe pain. He could no longer hold the mountain axe. The sharp axe was directly knocked out.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun turns from hard to soft. It''s no longer as hard as before. It''s as light as a Python''s letter.


    A cold light, in the air flash away, straight take Xing Daorong.


    No!


    Seeing this, Xing Daorong looked anxious.


    However, his palm was just injured. In a hurry, he couldn''t resist it at all. He could only move his body as much as he could to avoid being stabbed by the point of the gun.


    "Puchi!"


    The point of the gun stabbed into Xing Daorong''s shoulder, poked into his shoulder, and immediately brought out a tent of blood.


    Bearing the pain on his shoulder, Xing Daorong turned his horse around and rushed out. After he rushes out, Zhang Xiu drives his horse to follow closely. The pursuit of the wind is the spirit of the horse. Suddenly, it accelerates and shortens the distance between the two sides.


    Whew!


    The overlord spear came out again.


    The tip of the gun turned into a little streamer and easily penetrated into Xing Daorong''s back. One shot penetrated the vest and protruded from Xing Daorong''s chest. A drop of blood dripped from the tip of the gun in the front chest.


    Poof!


    The long gun was drawn out and the blood splashed like a spring.


    Xing Daorong screamed, his body trembled, his eyes disappeared, and there was no brilliance. He lost his center of gravity, and in a flash he fell off his horse and fell to the ground.


    At this moment, there was a complete silence.


    Liu Du, Jin Xuan and Zhao fan stare at each other. No one expected that Xing Daorong, a fierce general, had not even gone through ten moves in front of Zhang Xiu. He had been killed in the blink of an eye.


    It''s so fast!


    One by one, the soldiers of the three county allied forces were shocked. Liu Du''s soldiers, in particular, had a deeper understanding. They all know that Xing Daorong is powerful, but when Xing Daorong is killed in a flash, we can see how terrible Zhang Xiu''s strength is.


    "Zhang Xiu is here. Who dares to fight?"


    Zhang Xiu held her head high, with a sharp look on her face.

 Chapter 683

    Liu Du''s cheek twitched and his sword eyebrows wrinkled. He was very unhappy.


    Xing Daorong is his most important general. But now, Xing Daorong was directly killed, making his generals killed. Now that Xing Daorong died in battle, Liu Du has no one who can control Zhang Xiu, let alone a general who can fight.


    Liu Du looks at Jin Xuan and Zhao fan and signals them to send a general to fight.


    Jin Xuan snorted and said, "Nie Yu, you go forward to fight!"


    "Here it is


    Nie Yu is a general under Jin Xuan.


    In his hand, he had an iron stick, which was forged with fine steel. It was a solid stick. The goose egg was thick, one foot long and heavy. Once it''s waved, the iron bar will roar, and its strength will be strong without casting.


    "Zhang Xiu, don''t be wild, Nie Yu will meet you!"


    He carried the iron bar and rode out. When Nie Yu rushed to Zhang Xiu with an iron bar, he saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t hide. He didn''t mean to retreat.


    At the moment, Nie Yu''s eyes fell close to Zhang Buxiu''s crotch.


    The two horses were staggered, and each ran away. But in the moment of the wrong horse, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was lifted up. In a flash, the tip of the gun was lifted up, and then he stabbed back.


    "Puchi!"


    The overlord''s gun was as fast as lightning. One shot penetrated Nie Yu''s back and penetrated Nie Yu''s chest.


    "Poof!"


    With the tip of the gun drawn out, Nie Yu sprayed blood on his chest and fell to the ground.


    After Zhang Xiu killed two people, he was so fierce that the soldiers in the three counties of Jingnan were afraid.


    Even if it was Jin Xuan, his face was frightened.


    Zhang Xiu held the overlord''s gun and said with disdain: "Jin Xuan, you are too weak. You can send some local chickens and wagons to fight. I, Zhang Xiu, have been on the battlefield for several years. I have never seen such a weak enemy. Jingzhou Chengping for many years, one by one fattening, fighting capacity is too weak


    Jin Xuan''s face was dignified and embarrassed.


    I didn''t expect that the general I sent was killed directly.


    Jin Xuan looked at Zhao fan, but saw that Zhao fan shook his head one after another and said, "Zhang Xiu is so powerful. My general is not as good as Zhang Xiu, so I''d better not fight."


    At the moment, Zhao fan has been frightened by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and saw that Jin Xuan, Liu Du and Zhao fan no longer sent soldiers to fight. Knowing that the tetany war was no longer possible, she said, "it seems that you dare not fight. In that case, I will give you a present. "


    "Come on, bring up the present!"


    Zhang Xiu orders, the soldiers under his command come out with a head.


    At this moment, the head is Han Xuan''s head. After dealing with Han Xuan''s body, Zhang Xiu orders the soldiers to leave Han Xuan''s head and soak it with lime to preserve it.


    Zhang Xiu picked up the hair on her head and threw it out. In a flash, Han Xuan''s head crossed an arc in the air. With a plop, he fell to the ground, rolled twice, and stopped moving.


    Liu Du looked forward. He was facing his head. When he saw Han Xuan''s face, he exclaimed, "it''s Han Xuan!"


    Jin Xuan and Zhao fan look over at the same time.


    The expression on the three faces, at this moment, became dignified at the same time.


    Han Xuan is dead!


    In particular, Han Xuan''s head is not dead for a day or two. It has been dead for some time. But they have never been informed. Previously, the news was that Han Xuan was trapped in Wangshan, and Zhang Xiu did not make a breakthrough.


    What''s going on?


    There was a look of shock on the faces of all three.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "how about, surprise or surprise. You all want to come to rescue Han Xuan who is trapped in Wangshan, but you don''t expect that Han Xuan has been killed after he sent out a letter for help. "


    Boom!!


    Zhang Xiu''s words were like thunder, which made all the soldiers in the three counties of Jingnan talk.


    Everyone was in a panic.


    Although the soldiers of Lingling, Guiyang and Wuling counties were numerous and powerful, they came to help. First they saw Zhang Xiu''s invincible posture, and now they saw Han Xuan killed. The soldiers were talking and panicking.


    When Jin Xuan, Liu Du and Zhao fan saw the floating hearts, they felt a thump in their hearts.


    It''s a trick!


    He was calculated by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu deliberately takes out Han Xuan''s head, and then calculates them, in order to weaken the fighting spirit of 45000 soldiers.


    Jin Xuan roared: "Zhang Xiu, even if you kill Han Xuan, then what? In today''s situation, you are no more than 10000 soldiers, while we have 45000 excellent soldiers. We have enough troops to crush you. We will win this battle. "


    "Who said, I only have more than 10000 soldiers?"


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and spoke again.


    He had a sharp look and said confidently, "I have captured more than ten thousand soldiers to exterminate Han Xuan. After defeating the reinforcements from Linxiang County, I captured more than 4000 soldiers. "


    "I have reorganized all the more than 10000 people. Now, they have been determined to work for me. My forces are close to 30000. "Zhang Xiu said: "when I only have more than 10000 soldiers, I can defeat the 30000 soldiers of Han Xuan and Sha Moke. Now that I have 30000 soldiers, I am not afraid of your 45000 soldiers. "


    Jin Xuan gritted his teeth and said, "a group of mobs!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "you say the mob, but you don''t know that your own soldiers are the mob. In fact, there is a wave of soldiers, which is also under my command. In addition to the 30000 soldiers under my command, I also have nearly 10000 barbarians under shamoko. "


    He misrepresented the data.


    Today, there are only 7000 soldiers under shamoko. Zhang Xiu said that it was more than 10000 people who deliberately exaggerated the facts, deliberately put pressure on Liu Du and other soldiers, and crushed each other in terms of morale.


    Liu Du''s face changed again and again when he heard that shamoko was submissive to Zhang Xiu. In his heart, he was already afraid and worried about his own situation.


    So is Zhao fan.


    Jin Xuan clenched his fist and was not reconciled. This son of a bitch, shamoke, has turned over to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if there is no surrender of shamoko in this war, I will kill Han Xuan. It''s impossible. With shamoko''s army, Jin Xuan, do you still have the courage to fight in the first World War? "


    Jin Xuan was speechless.


    The faces of the soldiers under his command were no longer bloody. More than 45000 soldiers felt as if they were covered with a layer of cloud. They were depressed and even more flustered.


    Zhang Xiu looks at her words and looks, and sees the alliance of the three counties in Jingnan who are constantly talking, and raises her hand directly.


    "Dong! Dong


    In an instant, the war drum resounded.


    The fierce battle drums reverberated in the air, and the momentum became more and more urgent. The sound of the battle drums made Zhang Xiu''s soldiers full of fighting spirit.


    One by one, the soldiers had drawn their swords and were ready to fight.


    "Kill


    Pang Tong, who was in the rear, ordered to attack.


    "Kill


    Ma Chao and Zhao Yun also took part in the war and led the army directly to fight against Jin Xuan. The morale of the soldiers in the three counties of Jingnan has been continuously weakened. Under this premise, there is no need to wait any longer and they can fight directly.


    30000 troops, kill directly.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s current strength. He constantly gathered together the prisoners who surrendered. Under his encouragement, all the soldiers surrendered and were willing to work for Zhang Xiu.


    The army rushed out, Zhang Xiu looked at the battlefield, with a smile on her face.


    The beginning of the war means that the war is beginning to end.

 Chapter 684

    In a short time, the soldiers had reached the position where Zhang Xiu was. Zhang Xiu did not retreat into the army, but with the overlord gun, and the soldiers under his command, launched a direct attack.


    Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao and Zhao Yun are the three handle cones. Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du rushed forward with the soldiers. In a flash, the two sides collided.


    Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao directly killed them and poked them into the joint forces of the three counties.


    "Kill


    Shouts, one after another.


    One by one, the soldiers kept shouting and rushing forward.


    Although the soldiers of the three counties in Jingnan were resisting, they could not resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Fighting on the battlefield is the most important thing.


    The momentum is like a rainbow. One can be ten and fight to the end. But once the army''s momentum drops, even if it''s a million troops, it''s also a group of sheep that can''t stand the rush.


    In particular, the disparity in the strength of the two sides is not particularly great.


    There is only a small gap.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to crush it and went directly to the direction of Liu Du, Jin Xuan and Zhao fan. When Zhang Xiu killed him, Liu Du, Jin Xuan and Zhao fan were immediately flustered.


    Liu Du panic way: "Jin Taishou, can''t stop, withdraw! We''ll retreat at once


    Zhao Fan said: "retreat quickly!"


    Both of them were terrified.


    No matter Liu Du or Zhao fan, they all looked brave and high spirited when they came here. But now, two people no longer have the previous pride, only endless worry, worry about being held by Zhang Xiu.


    Looking at the decadent situation, Jin Xuan sighed and ordered: "withdraw!"


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds through the battlefield.


    Jin Xuan, with Liu Du and Zhao fan, retreated quickly, and his soldiers also turned around and left in a swarm. In today''s situation, to stay is to wait for death.


    The soldiers retreated. No more soldiers dared to stop, and they all retreated in a hurry. In particular, there is no way to make such a retreat, and no consideration has been given to the fact that the retreat has been covered up.


    As a result, the soldiers who fell behind were constantly killed. Some of the soldiers at the back surrendered and some were killed. On the whole battlefield, they were slaughtered on one side.


    More and more soldiers surrender.


    Zhang Xiu never refuses the soldiers who surrender. Now, with a large army, he can hide and kill constantly. After two and a half hours, countless troops from the three counties of Jingnan surrendered.


    After Zhang Xiu stops chasing, Jin Xuan runs away with people. It''s just that there are few soldiers around them. Looking around, there were less than 1000 soldiers each, only 600 or 700.


    This retreat has resulted in numerous losses.


    The most important thing is that countless soldiers in the rear surrendered, resulting in heavy evacuation losses. The three soldiers stopped to rest. Their faces were very dejected, and they were all in a mess.


    Jin Xuan suddenly said, "no, we haven''t met the elite soldiers under shamoko. When Zhang Xiu attacked, did you see shamoko''s troops? "


    "No!"


    Zhao fan and Liu Du answered at the same time.


    Immediately, Liu Du looked at Jin Xuan and said, "the meaning of Jin Taishou is that Zhang Xiu said that shamoko had surrendered before. It''s a fake. Is it deliberately deceiving us?"


    "No!"


    Jin Xuan said: "shamoke definitely works for Zhang Xiu. Just like this, Zhang Xiu can easily kill Han Xuan. I mean, it''s not that Zhang Xiu cheated us, it''s that we didn''t meet shamoko when we retreated all the way. Most likely, shamoko is lying in ambush on the way. "


    Brush!


    The look on Liu Du''s and Zhao fan''s faces changed again.


    Their present strength is only one or two thousand, which is the strength of only three people. If they meet shamoko''s barbarians, they can''t escape at all.


    Zhao fan guldong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Zhang Xiu is such a thief. We think that he may have laid an ambush on the way from Linyuan county to Linxiang county. Therefore, on the way to Changsha County, he kept up his spirits and was on guard. Where to know, Zhang Xiu is not in the ambush at all, is specially waiting for us to look at the mountain


    Liu Du said: "at the beginning, we should not fight against Zhang Xiu. If our four prefectures, at the same time, raise the flag to show that they are willing to submit to Zhang Xiu, it may not be the current situation. "


    That''s true of all people.


    Only after suffering losses can we know regret. Liu Du and Zhao fan are now in trouble and in danger, so they begin to regret.


    Jin Xuan glanced at them and said again, "you two, it''s no use regretting now. Now, we have to think about the withdrawal first. If you can''t withdraw to Linyuan County, I''m afraid you and I will all die here. "


    Liu Du and Zhao fan are even more worried.


    Liu Du said, "I''m going to go straight South and withdraw to Lingling county."


    Zhao Fan said, "I''m going back to Guiyang, too!"In their hearts, there was a sense of retreat. If we don''t retreat now, we can''t find a chance to retreat in the future. So they did not intend to stay in Linyuan County, but to withdraw.


    Jin Xuan''s eyes turned. He didn''t want to retreat. Once Liu Du and Zhao fan retreat, he can''t stand alone and can''t resist Zhang Xiu with his own strength.


    Two people have to be left.


    Only in this way can Liu Du and Zhao fan have a chance to send troops to Linyuan county again to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    "I don''t think it''s appropriate for you to retreat now," Jin Xuan said. Zhang Xiu is such a thief. He may have expected this, or even arranged for people to lie in ambush on your respective retreats. As soon as you retreat, you fall directly into his calculation. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Du sighed: "now this situation, how to do?"


    Zhao fan thought about it in his heart and then said, "it''s all right. If you don''t withdraw it, you don''t withdraw it. Let''s retreat to Linyuan county first, and then consider leaving. "


    When Jin Xuan heard Zhao fan''s words, he was very happy and said: "what Zhao Taishou said is very true. In particular, shamoko may lie in ambush on the way. Under such circumstances, we are vulnerable to shamoko''s ambush. I suggest that the soldiers be allowed to continue on their way and withdraw to Linyuan county. The three of us, with a few soldiers and more than 100 people, retreated and took the path back. "


    Zhao fan brightened his eyes and said, "it''s true. Let''s take the path and leave."


    Liu Du also responded directly.


    They immediately arranged for the two or three thousand soldiers to continue along the official road. Jin Xuan three people, is with more than 100 Pro guard, copy the path to leave quickly.


    The team continued on their way. Less than an hour later, they met shamoko''s army. After shamoko set up his position, no one dared to resist and surrendered directly.


    Shamoko scanned again, did not find Jin Xuan and others, some disappointed.


    Seizing Jin Xuan is a great achievement.


    At that time, you can use Jin Xuan and Zhang Xiu to bargain. Now, it''s not worth the money just to catch two or three thousand men. Shamoko retreated with his soldiers. Without retreating far away, he met Zhang Xiu who came with his soldiers.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s army is divided into two groups.


    One was led by Ma Chao and was responsible for the custody and reorganization of the surrender soldiers. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu led the army to catch up with the fleeing Jin Xuan and others.


    After Zhang Xiu and shamoke met, hearing shamoke''s report, she said with a smile, "it''s OK. Even if Jin Xuan takes the path back to Linyuan County, he can''t escape. When Jin Xuan withdrew to Linyuan County, he fell into the trap. "


    There was something unexpected about shamocco.


    He did not think that Jin Xuan''s retreat was a trap, but that Jin Xuan''s return to Linyuan county was tantamount to a return of the tiger.


    Zhang Xiu saw shamoko''s look, but she didn''t explain anything, so she continued to chase after him.

 Chapter 685

    Jin Xuan three people quickly retreat, when entering the territory of Yiyang County, all the way to rush. In a short time, he quit Yiyang County. When he returned to Linyuan County, Jin Xuan was relieved.


    He withdrew along the way, constantly arranged all over the country, mobilized troops to stop, intending to stop Zhang Xiu''s army. But these forces in front of Zhang Xiu''s army, even if there are to resist, are to hit the stone with eggs, directly defeated.


    The troops from all over the country could not stop Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Zhang Xiu just followed, which also made Jin Xuan three nervous. In the rapid retreat of the three, they withdrew to Linyuan County in late December. When Jin Xuan arrived, Zhang Xiu''s army also followed.


    Linyuan County, east gate.


    Gong Zhi opened the gate of the city. A thousand soldiers under his command were lining up at the gate.


    As time went by, when Jin Xuan arrived in Linyuan County, less than 100 steps away from the gate of the county, he saw Gong Zhi waiting at the gate, and his face showed joy.


    At this moment, the stone in Jin Xuan''s heart fell to the ground.


    It''s safe!


    It''s safe at last!


    Jin Xuan waved his hand and gave a loud order: "Gong Zhi, come to meet me."


    Today''s Jinxuan can''t run fast. The faces of Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du were all tired. During this period of time, they lived in the open air and looked haggard.


    Seeing that he was about to arrive at the gate of the city, he looked relaxed.


    Gong Zhi takes the soldiers forward quickly.


    The distance between the two sides should be shortened quickly.


    In particular, the distance between the two sides is less than 30 steps. Gong Zhi is facing Jin Xuan, especially Jin Xuan is riding on horseback, running in front of everyone.


    Just as Jin Xuan was on his way, all of a sudden, the pupils in his eyes shrank, showing an unexpected look. But Gong Zhi took out his bow and arrow, drew his bow and arrow, aimed at Jin Xuan and shot.


    "Whew!"


    A feather arrow, shot out quickly.


    Jin Xuan was scared out of his wits, so he quickly turned to avoid. But his speed, still slow a lot, difficult to turn the horse''s head, can only side to avoid. Rao is so, he is also the shoulder arrow, severe pain, from the body out, make Jinxuan pain.


    "Ah


    There was a shrill cry.


    The gold revolves Mou son to stare eldest brother, peep out the facial expression of the accident.


    Just as he was about to open his mouth again, Gong Zhi waved his hand and ordered: "kill!"


    More than 1000 soldiers directly killed Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du. A thousand soldiers surrounded Jin Xuan, making it impossible for them to escape. Under the slaughter of the soldiers, the soldiers around Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du were constantly killed.


    Gong Zhi stands outside with his bow and arrow. Suddenly, his eyes are bright.


    Jin Xuan showed a gap in his back.


    Whew!


    Gong Zhi released the bowstring without hesitation, and the arrow galloped. In a twinkling of an eye, he reached Jinxuan''s back.


    Puchi!


    The arrow sank into Jin Xuan''s back. Although the arrow failed to pierce Jin Xuan''s heart, Jin Xuan''s heart broke, blood flowed out, Jin Xuan covered his heart, struggled twice, and then fell to the ground without any breath.


    Gong Zhi shot Jin xuanhou, and followed suit, shooting Liu Du and Zhao fan one after another.


    He didn''t plan to take it alive.


    After leaving three people''s lives, in case Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill these people, he is a traitor, but he is quite dangerous.


    Therefore, Gong Zhi killed all of them directly. The soldiers under his command were also quickly killed. More than 100 soldiers brought back by Jin Xuan were slaughtered in a short time, and none of them survived.


    Gong Zhi looks at the scene of the battlefield with a bright smile on his face.


    It''s done!


    This time, he won the battle.


    Especially when he thought of the promise of the royal guards that he would get countless benefits and even more money by killing Jin Xuan, Gong Zhi was very excited.


    The reason why Gong Zhi betrayed him was because of the wealth of the royal guards. Lured by money, Gong Zhicai suggests that Jin Xuan lead his troops to fight, and then take over the city defense.


    When Jin Xuan retreats back, he directly leads the troops to kill Jin Xuan.


    Gong Zhi arranges soldiers to deal with the battlefield outside the city. After dealing with the battlefield, he leaves the bodies of Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du, and then waits quietly outside the city.


    As time went by, towards evening, there was an army on the official road outside the city.


    It''s Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to Linyuan county.


    Gong Zhi knew that Zhang Xiu was very powerful. He didn''t dare to delay. He quickly took the soldiers to the front, lifted his robes and knelt down in the snow. He solemnly said, "criminal Gong Zhi, I''d like to meet the Taiwei."


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    "Captain Xie!"


    Gong Zhi quickly thanks. After standing up, he points to the gate of the city and says, "Taiwei, Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du have all been killed. Please check with Taiwei."Zhang Xiu nodded, rode with Gong Zhi forward, came to the gate, saw a body in the gate.


    Among them are Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du.


    All three were killed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the three people''s death, and her eyes fell on Gong Zhi. She nodded: "Gong Zhi, you have done very well. You have made great achievements this time, and you have to reward them. Besides what you promised before, what reward do you want? "


    Gong Zhi said immediately: "Taiwei, I''m very familiar with Wuling county. Now that Jin Xuan is killed, the villain is willing to take the post of the prefect of Wuling county and guard Wuling for the prefect. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Looking at Gong Zhi.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s examination, Gong Zhi stoops slightly and looks respectful. He is not willing to be an aide, not willing to be nameless, and wants to be a prefect.


    Just in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, Gong Zhi''s heart is uneasy. Even now, he seems to be in a rickety boat, up and down ups and downs, under great pressure.


    On a cold day, there were fine beads of sweat on Gong Zhi''s forehead.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu said, "you have done a lot to kill Jin Xuan, Zhao fan and Liu Du. It is reasonable to say that there is no problem in assuming the position of the prefect of Wuling county. "


    "It''s just your nature. You should be clear that money is your destiny."


    "When you are the prefect of Wuling County, once you take bribes, bend the law, buy and sell officials, don''t blame your own sword for killing people. Even if you have ten heads, it''s not enough for me to cut them off. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you want to be an official, don''t think about making money. If you want to make money, you don''t want to be an official. If you want to have both, it''s impossible. It can only harm others and yourself. "


    As a matter of fact, there are not many such poor officials. As a local official, the primary task is to govern the local government. If he fails to meet this requirement, he is just like dereliction of duty.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Gong Zhi looked awed and said, "report back to Taiwei. If a villain is corrupt and incompetent, he is willing to be killed."


    He has some wild hopes in officialdom, so he can restrain his own thoughts.


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "you have the ambition to govern Wuling County well. Why not appoint you as the prefect of Wuling county?"


    "Captain Xie!"


    Gong Zhi bowed his body to express his thanks and was happy in his heart.


    From then on, he was also the chief of the party and a senior member of the party.

 Chapter 686

    Gong Zhi''s words changed, and he said once again: "Taiwei has been on a long journey. His humble position has prepared a banquet in the city. Please show me your honor and let the humble position accept the wind and wash the dust for him."


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said, "you don''t have to take over the wind and wash the dust. Now that Jin Xuan is killed, many things are waiting to be done. In particular, Wuling county has a vast territory, so it is not easy to govern it. "


    "It''s better to manage the place in a down-to-earth way than to think about how to do well in front of our officials. The best way to do that is to make the government work in harmony with the people and let the people live and work in peace and contentment. "


    "You have the ability. I''ll give you a generous reward. As long as you can manage the place well, it''s not an extravagant hope to be a marquis and a general. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if the governance is not good, don''t blame me for taking off your official hat."


    "I''ll do it


    Gong Zhi bows to answer again.


    As for Gong Zhi, he used to be Jin Xuan''s aide. He managed the place for Jin Xuan and was familiar with everything in Wuling county. He is familiar with Wuling County affairs.


    Zhang Xiu and his army were stationed outside the city, while Gong Zhi took people back to the city.


    At this time, shamoko came to see him in a hurry.


    As soon as he saw Zhang Xiu, Sha Moke couldn''t wait to say: "Zhang Taiwei, according to the previous agreement, he took Jin Xuan and Han Xuan. You have to give me all the property on Jin Xuan and Han Xuan''s mansion. Now, it''s time to keep that promise. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "the property of Jin Xuan''s family will be given to you."


    There was a look of joy on shamoko''s face.


    He was killed by Han xuanxiu and Zhang Fan. What''s your plan for wuximan led by shamoko? "


    "When you get money and benefits, you immediately go back to the mountains," said shamoko


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "as far as I know, wuximan lives in seclusion in the mountains and depends on water. His life is very simple and there are few farmers."


    "Over the years, the reason why wuximan has a good life and can not worry about food and clothing is that you took wuximan soldiers to help Jinxuan fight East and West, and obtained a lot of food, money and materials from Jinxuan."


    "Wuling county is in constant war. You can profit from it."


    "But now, Jin Xuan is killed and Wuling county is about to be pacified. Where do you get food when there is no war in Wuling county? There are so many people in wuximan that they have to eat and drink. Even if you have food, you can support it for a year and a half at most. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "by that time, wuximan will have no food. What are you going to do, samoko? "


    Shamoko''s eyes narrowed. In his bright eyes, through a cold light, he soon recovered to calm. He said with a smile: "step by step, when there is no food, you can think of a solution."


    "Think of a way?"


    Zhang Xiu looked very serious and disdained to say: "your so-called way is to take wuximan out of the mountain and plunder."


    "So what?"


    Shamoko held his head high, clenched his fist and said, "is it true that Zhang Taiwei is going to cross the river now?"


    "Of course not!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I promise what Zhang Xiu said, and I will not go back on it. Now, the relationship between you and me is still a joint one, so I won''t do it. But as long as you dare to go out of the mountains and plunder after that, I, Zhang Xiu, will lead the troops to destroy you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Shamoko couldn''t help laughing and said confidently: "Zhang Taiwei, you are too confident. Wuximan people have lived in the mountains for generations, and the government has been constantly fighting against them in all dynasties, but wuximan people have been standing up from beginning to end. "


    "I''m afraid it''s not easy for you to dispatch troops to deal with wuximan."


    "I''ve heard about you in Liangzhou. I know that with your army, you destroyed tens of thousands of Baima Qiang troops in Qiangdao County, and even more destroyed Baima Qiang. But the situation at that time was that the Qiang king of Baima Qiang was greedy for food and went out of the mountain to attack you, which led to your calculation. "


    Shamoko said confidently, "but I, shamoko, will not be like this."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you are wrong!"


    "What''s wrong with me?" said shamoko


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, wuximan has come to the point of plundering. There is not much grain in the front of the mountain. I just need to lead the troops to surround the exit, guard the important roads and towns, and order the people to stay away from the mountain village. How can you plunder? "


    "Second, I won''t take the initiative to attack the mountains, because you wuximan are good at fighting in the mountains. We all know where wuximan lives. I can also set fire to the mountain. A torch will light up the whole mountain. When the fire burns, the trees in the forest will catch fire. Wuxi can''t avoid it, so it will be burned. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "there are many ways to deal with wuximan."


    "Hiss!"


    When shamoko heard this, he took a cool breath.


    Zhang Xiu is too cruel.


    Zhang Xiu sees the facial expression change on shamoke''s face and smiles in her heart. In fact, arson is an option. However, such a choice may not be appropriate, because it is not easy to operate.This is a deliberate attempt to scare shamoko.


    Let shamoke know that Zhang Xiu is willing and dare to be reckless in order to deal with him.


    If you are not afraid of fire, Zhang Shanxiu said


    As a person living in the mountains, shamoko knows how terrible it is to start a fire in the mountains, which is almost impossible to extinguish. Especially in the deep mountains and old forests, there are countless fallen leaves. After the fire is ignited, the trees are all burning, and they can''t be put out at all.


    When Zhang Xiu heard shamoko''s words, she confidently said, "when it comes to being punished by heaven, I''m not really afraid. Compared with hearing all the Han people cry helplessly, hearing all the women and children have nothing to rely on, and seeing all the corpses and bloodstains being slaughtered, I would rather deal with wuximan with the most tragic means. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "I, Zhang Xiu, am only responsible for the people under my rule, but not the people who slaughtered my people. This is my nature. If you don''t send troops, we''ll be fine. As long as you send troops, it''s endless hatred. If we don''t destroy you wuximan, I will never give up. "


    Shamoco only felt numb in his scalp.


    He has been with Zhang Xiu for some time. He has seen Zhang Xiu''s own Wu Yong and his calculation. Zhang Xiu and her counselors calculated Han Xuan, Liu Du, Zhao fan and Jin Xuan to death.


    It''s not lucky to meet Zhang Xiu.


    Shamoko sat in the camp, without the previous arrogance, he was silent for a moment.


    When Zhang Xiu sees the appearance of shamoko, what he wants is this effect.


    We need to frighten shamoko.


    Shamoke is different from shaodang Qiang. Shaodang Qiang is close to Han people. It will be easier for Zhang Xiu to persuade shaodang Qiang''s king. In the present situation, it is not easy to persuade shamoko, but it must be deterred.


    When dealing with shaodang Qiang, we can use kingcraft to make them obedient.


    To deal with shamoko, we must use hegemonism to frighten him.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said again: "of course, if you are wuximan, you are willing to submit to my official and follow my arrangement. Then, it''s another matter. "


    Shamoke suddenly laughed, disdained: "Zhang Xiu, said so much, you just want me wuximan, obedient to you, right?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Without any hesitation, this simple answer made shamoko stunned.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "of course, you can choose not to surrender. If you don''t submit, in view of your contribution to me, I will still keep my promise to ignore wuximan in the mountains. As long as Wuxi man is in the mountains and does not go out to plunder, I don''t think you exist. But as long as I get the news that you wuximan are out of the mountain to plunder, I will send troops to eradicate wuximan completely. "


    When shamoke heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he had no doubt about her.


    Because Zhang Xiu is such a cruel person.


    You can say it, you can do it.


    Shamoko said coldly: "I Wuxi are quite obedient to you. I don''t know how to cultivate, and I can''t get along with the Han people. Even if we are obedient to you, so what? You can only become a vassal of the Han people. "


    "You are wrong!"


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "as long as you obey me, I can solve all your worries one by one. What you are worried about is not a problem. "


    "What are you going to do?" said shamoko


    Zhang Xiu knows that shamoke has some ideas in his heart. After all, he has seen Zhang Xiu''s Bing Feng and has even personally dealt with Zhang Xiu. Only when he knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful can he have some ideas and is willing to talk about these things with Zhang Xiu.


    As long as Zhang Xiu can convince shamoko and be awed by her strength, the threat of wuximan can be removed from Wuling County, thus making Wuling County less threatened.

 Chapter 687

    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn and said, "it''s not very difficult to deal with it. The population of wuximan is only 100000. I can order the craftsmen to build a city outside the mountain for wuximan to live in. "


    "In addition, I will give the land to wuximan who came out of the mountain to cultivate. Of course, I will arrange special personnel to teach wuximan farming skills, so that they can cultivate their own


    "You must say that wuximan will be exploited and targeted when he comes out of the mountain. Wuximan''s life must be bad. You can rest assured of that. "


    "The wuximan after the construction of the city is not managed by the Han people. It''s up to you to select the people with ability and prestige from the wuximan and let them manage the wuximan."


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and said: "if the people of Wuxi manage themselves, they will not be exploited. Shamoko, what do you think of what I said? "


    When shamoko heard this, a light flashed in his eyes.


    Eyes, full of sharp look.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are true, but shamoko is not a dull person and is not easy to be bewitched. He said, "it''s very pleasant to hear what Taiwei said, but I have a question in my heart."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it?"


    Shamoko said, "you have said all kinds of good things. All kinds of good things are good for Wuxi. But do you really want to build a city outside the mountain and build a city for Wuxi people?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s impossible to be a country in a country."


    "Why?" said shamoko


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the kingdom in the Kingdom mentioned by the king of man is a place where the king of man wants to control the military power, but it is still a place of separation. But I gave Wu Ximan a lot of benefits. Wu Ximan naturally accepted my conditions. "


    "What conditions?" said shamoko


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, all wuximan children must study in the academy and accept the instruction of the Han scholars. Those who are successful in study can become officials to manage local affairs, either in wuximan or under my command.


    "Second, wuximan is not allowed to garrison. All wuximan''s troops are directly transferred to my command to fight for me. Of course, to make contributions to the enemy is to make contributions. If you want to win fame, you can go to my command and fight in all directions. "


    "Third, our officers will arrange for our generals to lead their troops alone in the wuximan area. Its garrison does not interfere in internal affairs and does not manage local areas. It is only responsible for suppressing rebellious areas and maintaining local order. The management of wuximan is the responsibility of wuximan people. "


    "This is the condition of the official," Zhang Xiu said


    Shamoko sneered and said, "it''s easy for you to say that, but wuximan doesn''t allow me to garrison. Is it still wuximan?"


    "When wuximan comes out of the mountain and turns to his official, he is no longer the former wuximan." Zhang Xiu said directly: "as long as wuximan is obedient to me, it''s not too much to call them Han people."


    Shamoko gritted his teeth and said, "your abacus is a thief."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not calculation, it''s benefit exchange. What you can''t deny is that what I gave to wuximan is a real benefit, and it''s good for them to live a good life. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "your five streams gather in the mountains and streams. They work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They are beaten by the wind and rain. They can''t even get enough food and clothing. Under my command, I can guarantee that they can get enough food and clothing."


    When shamoko heard this, he was silent.


    As the man king of wuximan, he knew that what Zhang Xiu said was true. Yes, he really thought about wuximan.


    Of course, there are advantages for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu does not spend a single soldier to solve the threat of wuximan, which is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Shamoko wanted to say no, but he knew it was wuximan''s chance. Once this opportunity is missed, wuximan may not be able to get out of the mountain. Even if it is attacked by Zhang Xiu, wuximan may be in danger.


    That''s what shamoko thought.


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to choose is your consideration. The conditions I promised you will be fulfilled one by one and will not be abandoned. But from then on, it depends on how you choose between you and me, whether you are an enemy or a colleague. "


    Shamoko frowned.


    As far as moxa is concerned, he is quite at ease in his life. There''s not enough food. If we go out of the mountains to plunder, we''ll even have Jin Xuan to give us food. It''s a comfortable day.


    But now it''s different.


    Jin Xuan is dead!


    Zhang Xiu is also a very powerful person, leading the troops to fight is even more powerful. Shamoke asked himself that he was really against Zhang Xiu. He might not be Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    This is what shamoko is most worried about. As for wuximan''s interests, how much does it have to do with him?


    He''s not in charge of that.


    I don''t have the energy or the mind to manage it.


    Forced by Zhang Xiu''s power and Zhang Xiu''s interests, shamoke finally reluctantly said: "I shamoke, I am willing to submit to Taiwei. However, there are many tribes of people in wuximan, and the wuximan of each tribe may not be willing to go out of the mountain. "Zhang Xiu said confidently, "as the king of Wuxi man, if you can''t subdue the tribes, how can you call him the king of man? What''s more, we don''t need all the barbarians to leave the mountains. We just need most of them to live in the mountains. "


    "Why?" he asked


    Zhang Xiu said: "the barbarians living in the mountains must be able to wear warm and thick clothes, and they must be able to have enough to eat without being hit by the wind and rain. With a sharp contrast, the wuximan in the mountain will come out of the mountain without our official''s order. People are all seeking good fortune and avoiding evil. Once most of the Wuxi people live better and better. The rest of us, too. "


    It''s a surprise that shamoko picks his eyebrows.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu has this heavy consideration, which is really surprising.


    Sure enough, it''s Zhang Xiu.


    Deep calculation.


    Shamoko said in a deep voice: "although you speak so well, who can guarantee that everything will go on? What if what you said about building a city and letting wuximan manage wuximan is deceiving people? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can rest assured about this."


    "Come on, Guoyuan."


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    After the soldiers got the order, Guoyuan rushed into the camp and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiubai pointed to Guoyuan and said, "Man Wang, whose name is Guoyuan, is a disciple of the great Confucian Zheng Xuan. If you make a little inquiry about the name of Zheng Xuan, you will know that he is a Confucian sect in the world. All Confucian disciples respect him. "


    "Just as it happens, Guoyuan is Zheng Xuan''s favorite student. If Guoyuan sits in Wuling county and chooses the site to build the city, it will ensure the advancement of everything. At the same time, Guoyuan is the chief of the official and the most important staff around him. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "if there is such a sincere gentleman as Guoyuan, can you rest assured?"


    "Don''t worry!"


    Shamoko nodded.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu personally arranged for the disciples of the great Confucian Zheng Xuan to come to the town.


    Guoyuan is a little dizzy at the moment.


    I don''t know why.


    Zhang Xiu then looked at Guoyuan and explained the promise she had just made to shamoko to build a city for wuximan and educate wuximan. Finally, she said, "Guoyuan, I ordered you to take charge of this matter. Would you like to?"


    "I''m willing to be humble!"


    Guoyuan didn''t even think about it and agreed directly.


    It''s not a bad thing to be in charge of such things. In particular, he is not only responsible for the construction of the city, but also has soldiers under his command. Even if the Wuxi barbarian manages it by himself, he has nothing to do with it and needs to be involved.


    This is what Guoyuan cares about most.


    Guoyuan, under the command of Zhang Xiu, has been in the center of Chang''an. What he lacks most is the experience of governing local governments. To let him be a governor of wuximan is to have the experience of governing the local area.


    This is Guoyuan''s opportunity.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "I''ll leave the matter of wuximan to you. As for the site selection and construction of wuximan, you should consult with the people selected by shamoko. "


    "Here it is


    Guoyuan responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu looked at shamoke and asked, "shamoke, would you like to?"


    Shamoko said: "I will give the management of wuximan to the appropriate elders in the tribe. I will find someone as soon as possible to discuss with the national people. As for myself, I am willing to take the soldiers of wuximan and submit to Taiwei and follow his instructions. "


    He knew that Zhang Xiu wanted to transfer the troops of wuximan, simply submit directly, and then strive for success.


    It''s shamoko''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu said: "no problem!"


    He is happy to see the success of shamoko''s submission. He was going to deploy shamoko. Now, when shamoko takes the initiative to work, Zhang Xiu''s business is less.


    Zhang Xiu said: "there are many arms under my command. The Qiang people as you know, under my command, are a separate army, called the flying Qiang army. You are now under my command. I order you to be a general of pingman. Wuximan soldiers, whose number is Wuxi army and whose organizational structure is 20000, are fighting in all directions with their officers. "


    "Captain Xie!"


    As soon as shamoko heard this, he was very happy.


    When it comes to his own wuximan, he is very happy to be able to build an army alone. This means that he and Zhang Xiu under the command of the general, it is juxtaposed.

 Chapter 688

    After Zhang Xiu arranged for shamoke and wuximan, she asked Guoyuan to take charge of Wuling county and deal with wuximan. In addition, Zhang Xiu also dispatched 20000 soldiers to follow Guoyuan''s arrangement, and arranged people to go north to Chang''an, so that Xu Shu quickly mobilized officials to serve as the prefects of Lingling County, Guiyang County and Changsha County.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry to leave Wuling county. She stays in Linyuan County for the time being, and lets Guoyuan negotiate with shamoke to settle the matter of wuximan.


    Time flies into a new year.


    This year is the fourth year of Jian''an.


    After the Spring Festival in February, Chang''an has dispatched officials to take office as soon as possible, and lianjiang Xiajun has a new governor, which has freed Huang Zhong from military affairs.


    In Jingzhou, Kuai Liang was in charge and all the families cooperated to set things right quickly.


    Everything is in order.


    Seeing that everything was on the right track, Zhang Xiu stopped staying and took the Wuxi army under shamoko to the north. Zhang Xiu directly gave Huang Zhong the task of pacifying Lingling, Guiyang, Wuling county and other places, and asked Huang Zhong to dispatch troops to coordinate with the prefects to pacify various places.


    In fact, without Liu Du, Zhao fan, Han Xuan and others, the remaining resistance forces are not enough to be afraid, only some scattered resistance people are left. When they returned to Xiangyang, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others had already gone north to Chang''an.


    Zhang Xiu saw Kuai Liang, heard some news from Kuai Liang in Jingzhou, and also talked about the strategy of local governance. Kuai Liang''s general direction of local governance is still to implement Zhang Xiu''s strategy, and he will be ready to start a new career, while encouraging farmers and businessmen to develop production.


    Zhang Xiu was relieved that Kuai Liang governed Jingzhou.


    Kuai Liang has enough ability.


    After a short stay in Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu led her army northward and went straight to Chang''an. This time, he won Jingzhou, making Guanzhong, Liangzhou and Jingzhou together, and expanding their strength again.


    In particular, Jingzhou is rich in soil, fertile land, and rich in money. With Jingzhou as the backing, Zhang Xiu will no longer be short of food and finance.


    Of course, it will take some time. After all, Jingzhou has just been decided, and everything is in vain.


    It''s sunny in March.


    In late March, the army led by Zhang Xiu returned to Chang''an again.


    Zhang Xiuxian settled Daqiao and Xiaoqiao, introduced them to Huang Yueying, Cao Jie and other women, and let them get in touch with each other. Instead of taking care of the affairs in the backyard, she went to the study to meet the six ministers under her command and ask about the development of Guanzhong.


    In the whole Guanzhong area, this year, everything has stabilized.


    After Zuo Ci''s surrender, the alchemists headed by Zuo CI were constantly cleaning up the evil sorcery and integrating the ghosts and magicians in the whole Guanzhong area, so that there were no other gods and spirits in the whole Guanzhong area.


    In accordance with the previous agreement, Zhang Xiu gave Zuo CI the official position and appointed a group of alchemists.


    On the one hand, these alchemists became part of the Ministry of rites, as the main personnel of sacrifice; on the other hand, those who were obsessed with alchemy were also supported by Zhang Xiu.


    The reason why Zhang Xiu supports her is that she wants to have a look. Can the alchemist eventually produce more powerful weapons so that he can attack the city and plunder the land.


    Everything is arranged properly, Zhang Xiu transfers the information sent back by the royal guards to check.


    Today, Gongsun Zan dominates Youzhou, Yuan Shao dominates Jizhou and Bingzhou, and Cao Cao has captured parts of Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yangzhou.


    The situation is becoming clearer.


    According to the latest news, Cao Cao has exterminated Lu Bu. But in this life, without Liu Bei''s persuasion, Lu Bu survived and became a tiger general under Cao Cao.


    With Cao Cao''s ability, he easily elevated Lv Bu and transferred all the generals under Lv Bu''s command, so that Lv Bu could only be Cao Cao''s strong general. Although Lu Bu was unwilling, he was forced by the situation and had to let it go.


    After seeing the news about sun CE, Zhang Xiu was even more shocked.


    In a short period of time, sun CE swept the whole Lujiang County and took it for himself. In addition, sun CE and Zhou Yu joined hands to rush south to Yuzhang County, and took control of Yuzhang county.


    Since then, sun CE completely occupied Jiangdong.


    Sun CE''s strength ushered in a leap, but Sun CE wanted to thoroughly consolidate the foundation, not overnight.


    After all, there are many unstable factors in Jiangdong.


    Zhang Xiu continued to look down, but when she saw the news about Lu Xun sent back by the royal guards, she was surprised. Lu Xun refused Zhang Xiu''s invitation. He didn''t say he was willing to surrender or not. He just said he would stay in Wu County for the time being.


    This attitude surprised Zhang Xiu.


    The last time Shi A''s action in Wu County, Lu Xun helped Shi a, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. But Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, Lu Xun does not agree, this is surprising.


    Zhang Xiu asks the royal guards to pay close attention to Lu Xun''s news, and no longer cares about Lu Xun''s affairs.


    After dealing with all the things in hand, Zhang Xiu goes back to the backyard and looks at the child. Today''s little Zhang Cheng is more than one year old. The boy was born with a tiger head and a tiger brain. He was very clever and had already spoken.He speaks clearly and can run around. At this time, children like to run around. They can''t be quiet and must be followed all the time.


    Although Zhang Cheng seldom sees Zhang Xiu, he is not afraid of life at all. His father keeps shouting, which makes Zhang Xiu very happy.


    This is his son.


    It''s his sustenance!


    After playing with Xiao Zhang Cheng for a while, Zhang Xiu asked people to take the children away, chatted with the girls for a while, and then left the backyard to do something in his hands. This time back to Chang''an, Zhang Xiu didn''t leave immediately. She took a rest in Chang''an for a while.


    After March, when spring ploughing was over, the imperial court sent envoys to Chang''an to urge Zhang Xiu to fulfill his agreement and set up an army to fight against Cao Cao. However, Zhang Xiu still declined, saying that the rear is not stable and the time is not right.


    When the time is right, attack Cao Cao again. I hope the emperor will wait patiently.


    This is Zhang Xiu deliberately perfunctory.


    Not long after Cao Cao''s envoy arrived in Tianzi, Zhang''s eldest son refused. This time, the envoy was Cheng Yu, an important minister under Cao Cao.


    He made a special trip to summon Zhang Xiu. The imperial court thought of her merits and granted her the title of Marquis of Chiyang.


    Chiyang county is in Guanzhong.


    With the title of Marquis Chiyang, Zhang Xiu''s official position is Taiwei, and the title is Marquis Chiyang.


    Cao Cao, for no reason, anointed Zhang Xiu as the Marquis of Chi Yang, aiming to win over Zhang Xiu. Such a move, Zhang Xiu is to judge the intention of Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao is not willing to go to war with Zhang Xiu. In fact, today''s Zhang Xiu is not willing to go to war with Cao Cao. The next Cao Cao is likely to solve the problem of Liu Bei and Yuan Shu.


    Zhang Xiu is to take advantage of this opportunity, seize the time to win Hanzhong, even to Yizhou. Only when Yizhou and Guanzhong were really linked together could Zhang Xiu be regarded as a great power.


    At that time, when Zhang Xiu came out of Luoyang in the East, there would be a situation of swallowing the whole world.

 Chapter 689

    After Zhang Xiu arranged for his attendants, he sent people to inform the six ministers and a group of assistant officials to come to the hall for discussion.


    Zhang Xiu is ready to send troops. She has to discuss the issue of sending troops.


    It wasn''t long. People gathered.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Jia Xu and said in a deep voice: "Wenhe, you are in charge of the military department. Now how is the integrated training of various armies going


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, there are many arms.


    There are the earliest liehu army, Feixiong army, Langya camp, and the following feiqiang army, Heishan army, Baima Yicong army, as well as the latest affiliated Wuxi army. These troops are all elite under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Jia Xu looked calm and replied, "report back to my Lord, the integrated training of various armies has been completed. Even the newly attached Wuxi army has completed its training. As for the Wuxi army, the same method was used in the humble position as in the Heishan army, and a single person was sent as a military division to assist shamoko in handling government affairs. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "well done!"


    Although he was brave, he lacked the ability to lead the troops to fight. Jia Xu sent someone alone to serve as a military adviser to assist shamoko, which was excellent.


    Zhang xiudao said: "no matter Liangzhou, Jingzhou and Guanzhong, all the places are stable for the time being. In Liangzhou, with the cooperation of Yang Xiu and Gao Lan, even Zhangye, the Bianjun County, has been in control. "


    "Now, it''s time to solve Yizhou."


    "If we take Yizhou, we will have no worries and a solid granary."


    "The emperors of the pre Qin Dynasties made great efforts to rule the country, but the reason why Yizhou was able to come out of the world in the East was that Yizhou contributed a lot. Yizhou, as the rear area, still contributed a lot to Liu Bang''s ability to wipe out the world. "


    "Today, we also want to take Yizhou."


    Zhang Xiu''s words are full of domineering and enterprising spirit. At the end of his words, all the civil servants and military generals under his command looked vaguely excited.


    The pre Qin Dynasty was a unified empire.


    Liu Bang is still the most respected one.


    Compared with the pre Qin Dynasty and Liu Bang, Zhang Xiu''s ambition is self-evident. Everyone knows Zhang Xiu''s ambition, so after hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, he starts to think about the plan to deal with Guanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Chen Cang had been attacked by Zhang Lu before, and this attack on Zhang Lu was for this reason."


    Li Yan and Liu Ba did not speak.


    Now, they are mainly responsible for the rear, and they are not very good at military affairs.


    After thinking for a while, Xu Shu said, "the land of Yizhou is surrounded by mountains and barriers. It is not easy for us to go south to Yizhou. In particular, Zhang Lu strengthened the garrison in xiegudao, ziwugu and Yangpingguan in the west to avoid the attack in Hanzhong. It''s not easy to cross the mountains and enter Hanzhong. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s up to people!"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "there are roughly three directions for attacking Hanzhong."


    Zhang xiudao: "which three directions?"


    Jia Xu replied: "first, the LORD sent his troops southward to xiegu pass, and then southward from xiegu road to Hanzhong. As a deterrent, the army is also an upright Wang division. "


    "Second, Zhang Lu was born in Taoism and believed in wudoumi Taoism, and Zhang Lu was the master of wudoumi Taoism. For such a person, you should give in to what you like. He believed that Zuo CI could be sent to Hanzhong to make friends with Zhang Lu and exert influence. "


    "Zuo Ci and Zhang Lu, both Taoists, must have room for conversation."


    "Third, under Zhang Lu''s command, there is a counselor Yang Song. This man is very greedy for money. Please go to bribe Yang Song. In this way, the Lord will be able to bury the inside story beside Zhang Lu. "


    Jia Xu looked confident and said, "it''s no longer difficult to defeat Zhang Lu''s army in three ways."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu praised her.


    Obviously, Jia Xu has studied the situation of Hanzhong, so when Zhang Xiu asks a question, Jia Xu can give a detailed plan.


    "Lord, I''m willing to go to Hanzhong to lobby Yang Song."


    Pang Tong came out again with a look of expectation on his face. In the past, he served as an envoy to shaodang Qiang on behalf of Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, he failed. Pang Tong was very concerned about this. Now he asked for a fight again.


    "Sure!"


    Zhang Xiu did not say much and agreed directly.


    "Thank you


    Pang Tong''s face was full of joy. This time, when he went to Hanzhong, he was sure to succeed. As long as Yang Song is successfully lobbied, Zhang Lu will be affected and the front-line war will be further affected.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "this time, we will dispatch Baima Yicong, Heishan army, feiqiang army and regular army to fight."


    Today, the number of Baima Yicong is small, only 3000.


    The original Baima Yicong system can be more and the number of people can be increased again. However, Zhao Yun only controlled the number of Baima Yicong to 3000. He focused on training soldiers and enhancing the combat effectiveness of soldiers.


    The Montenegrin army now has 20000 elite troops.


    The flying Qiang army is also 20000.


    In addition, Zhang''s more than 20000 regular troops have reached more than 60000.This is a fairly strong force.


    As for the rest of the troops, they will stay in Chang''an for the time being. After all, Chang''an is the base camp, so it must be manned. Otherwise, once the rear is attacked, it will be quite dangerous.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu once again said, "in addition, Ma Chao, Sha Moke and Sima Yi will accompany me and fight with me."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    When it comes to the mobilization of the army, there must be an order from Jia Xu''s military department, otherwise the army cannot be mobilized.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu said, "go to inform me."


    "Here it is


    They all answered and turned away.


    As soon as the war started, it was the cooperation of many departments. After all, it involved the mobilization of grain and grass, military resources and other forces. That was not a trivial matter.


    After arranging all kinds of things, Zhang Xiu went straight back to the backyard and said that she was about to send troops. For all the women, it''s a habit for Zhang Xiu to go out to fight. Fortunately, this time, Zhang Xiu came back to Chang''an and had a rest, which was a surprise.


    After a long rest, the night passed.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    After breakfast, Zhang Xiu went straight to the barracks and mobilized the army again.


    In this battle, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong, Zhang Yan''s conventional army, Zhang Yan''s Heishan army, and a Guli''s feiqiang army were all valiant and in good order.


    Ma Chao, Sha Moke, Sima Yi and others also followed the army.


    These people are looking forward to the war.


    Only when there is war can there be a chance to make contributions.


    It''s just that Gan Ning, Chen Zhi and others are both envious and helpless when they look at the troops going out. They are veterans in the army. They can''t fight every time. They can only stay.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much and gave the order to send troops.


    This battle sent troops from Chang''an to the south.


    In the territory of Chang''an, the army went straight to the valley. To go south from xiegu, the first problem is to conquer xiegu pass, which is Zhang Lu''s first pass.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu arrived outside xiegu pass in early April.


    The army was arrayed in a fierce manner.


    Zhang Xiu stood outside the pass, looking at the xiegu pass in front of her. On both sides of xiegu pass, there are steep and rugged hillsides. The mountain rises into the clouds, and the top of the mountain can''t be seen at all.


    Xiegu pass was built between the two mountains, more than five feet high, and the wall was strong.


    This level is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

 Chapter 690

    Zhang Xiu rode in array, looking at the towering and solid xiegu pass, looking at Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Ya and others, said in a deep voice, "are you sure you want to attack xiegu pass?"


    "No!"


    Zhao Yun answered directly.


    After a survey, Zhang Yan replied, "the city of xiegu pass is much higher than the ordinary city wall, and it is built between the two mountains. Such a city is not easy to attack. Even if we have 100000 troops, we may not be able to use them. It''s a big problem to kill the city at xiegu pass. "


    Sima Yi and others agreed.


    Xiegu pass stands in the mountains, with rugged mountains on both sides. The city is tall and solid. Ordinary ladder can''t climb up, so it''s hard to attack such a wall.


    Zhao Yun suddenly said: "Lord, I''m going to fight in a humble position. Let''s have a try. If the other side is willing to send troops, then we will fight in one go. If the other side doesn''t send troops, it''s not too late to think of a way. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Zhao Yun carrying a silver gun, galloping out. His white horse, white robe, handsome and extraordinary, in a twinkling of an eye, he went to xiegu pass, pointed his gun to the upper floor of the city, and said in a loud voice: "under the gate of Zhang Xiu, the Great Han Taiwei and the Marquis of Chiyang, Zhao Yun is here. How dare the people on the tower fight? "


    His voice was strong and resounding from the city floor.


    On the upper floor of xieguancheng, the soldiers have been on guard.


    The leader''s name was Yang Yi.


    This man was born in Hanzhong Yang family, but he was a member of the Yang family, and his status was low. He was promoted by Zhang Luyi, who made Yang Yi today. Yang Yi is quite brave, and knows military affairs. He is very cautious.


    Wearing armor, Yang Yi stood at the gate and looked at Zhao Yun, who came to challenge him. He said with a straight face, "are you Zhao Yun who picked Chunyu Qiong with a gun, captured Yuan Tan alive and defeated Yuan Shao?"


    "It''s Ben Jiang!"


    Zhao Yun answered in a loud voice, but his heart was a little surprised. Zhang Lu was located in Hanzhong and did not expand outside, so the news was relatively closed. But the general who closed the valley knew his deeds clearly, so his news was not blocked.


    Zhao Yun exclaimed: "this will be here, dare to fight?"


    Yang Yi raised a sneer from the corner of his mouth and ordered: "shoot the arrow!"


    With a command, the archer on the tower quickly released his bowstring. A bow and arrow out of the string, from the city floor shot, straight to Zhao Yun.


    Zhao Yun dragon gall silver gun waving, just listen to the sound of Ding Ding.


    All the bows and arrows were shot down.


    Seeing this, Zhao Yun knew that the battle would not be successful. In such a situation, it is useless to fight.


    Yang Yi looked at the retreating Zhao Yun, his eyes turned, and fell on the position where the big flag of Zhang Xiu was. Although Yang Yi didn''t know Zhang Xiu, he could tell her identity and said, "Zhang Xiu, originally General Yang Yi, was stationed on the tower of xiegu pass. If you have courage and insight, attack directly. Ben will see how good you are


    Zhang Xiu''s face is as deep as water.


    He knew that the other side''s words were intended to motivate him to attack xiegu pass.


    It''s obviously not cost-effective to attack such a big xiegu pass.


    Zhang Xiu is very calm, no strong attack, directly ordered to retreat, stationed outside xiegu pass.


    Yang Yi looked at the retreating Zhang Xiu, her eyes narrowed, and a trace of solemnity passed in her eyes. Zhang Xiu is young and energetic. He intends to motivate Zhang Xiu and let her attack.


    Now, Zhang Xiu has no impulse.


    It is this kind of Zhang Xiu that makes Yang Yi alert. Facing the army of Zhang Xiu, he was slightly uneasy. After all, Zhang Xiu is a famous general in the world.


    Yang Yi, a general stationed at xiegu pass, is nothing in front of Zhang Xiu.


    What Yang Yi can do is to see Zhang Lu''s response. As soon as he got the news that Zhang Xiu was going south to xiegu pass, he had already arranged for his soldiers to go to Nanzheng in Hanzhong as soon as possible to report about Zhang Xiu''s sending troops. Please let Zhang Lu make a decision.


    After Zhang Xiu''s troops were stationed, they didn''t discuss how to break the barrier. Today, it''s too steep to go up and down the steep mountain. It''s hard for the faction to climb up and down the steep mountain.


    The only way is to go south to Hanzhong.


    So now, Zhang Xiu only arranges Zhang Yan, a Guli and Zhang Yan to arrange their own soldiers to fight outside xiegu pass, so as to motivate Yang Yi to send troops.


    When Zhang Xiu stationed troops outside xiegu pass, Sima Yi, Zuo Ci and others had gone south together. The two men took the first step. Before Zhang Xiu sent out troops, even before Yang Yi got the news of Zhang Xiu''s sending out troops, they had already entered the south of xiegu pass.


    Hanzhong County, Nanzheng.


    Nanzheng County is the capital of Hanzhong County, and also the seat of Zhanglu.


    In the prefect''s mansion.


    Zhang Lu is reading a book, studying Taoist classics and preparing to annotate Tao Te Ching. This is Zhang Lu''s biggest hobby. He wants to carry forward wudoumi Dao.


    For the government affairs within the jurisdiction, Zhang luduo was handed over to his subordinates. In particular, Hanzhong under other rule did not rely on the normal government officials, but let the people in wudoumi cult to manage and use the rules of wudoumi cult to manage the people.Under Zhang Lu''s rule of inaction, the people in Hanzhong lived and worked in peace and contentment. In particular, several years ago, in the chaos in Guanzhong, tens of thousands of people entered Hanzhong along the xiegu, which greatly increased the population of Hanzhong.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the room.


    Zhang Lu said, "come in!"


    The voice fell, and a middle-aged man with elegant appearance entered. He was nearly thirty years old, with a white face and short beard, and bright eyes. He came to Zhang Lu''s side and said, "Shijun!"


    Shijun is Zhang Lu''s name in wudoumi sect. All the people under Zhang Lu''s command, whether civil servants or military generals, call Zhang Lu their teacher to show their respect for him.


    Zhang Lu looked up at the visitor and said with a smile, "what''s the matter, Bowen?"


    Bowen is the word of Yan Pu.


    He was Yan Pu, a military strategist under Zhang Lu, and was highly valued by Zhang Lu.


    Yan Pu leaned back slightly and said, "just received the message from Yang Yi of xiegu pass, Zhang Xiu sent troops from Chang''an, waved 60000 troops, and went south to xiegu pass."


    "Hiss!"


    Zhang Lu took a cool breath when he heard the speech.


    There was a look of horror on his face.


    "Here, Zhang Xiu is really here."


    Zhang Lu was a little alarmed. He stood up and said, "I was bewitched by Han Sui. I sent troops from Nanzheng, went out from Yangping pass in the west of Hanzhong, entered Liangzhou and joined Han Sui to attack Chencang county. At that time, Zhang Xiu didn''t come to attack us. I was still thinking about it. I was afraid it was in the past. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu still didn''t want to let us go. "


    Yan Pu was silent in his heart. Now that Zhang Xiu was killed, Hanzhong was in great danger. Zhang Xiu has made great achievements in war. Anyone who is in front of Zhang Xiu''s army will be afraid of three points.


    Yan Pu took a deep breath and said, "Lord, you don''t have to worry too much. Xiegu pass is a grand pass. It''s easy to defend but hard to attack, especially the high wall. Moreover, Yang Yi, the guard General of xiegu pass, was cautious and proficient in the art of war. With Yang Yi, he will be able to defend xiegu pass and resist the enemy outside xiegu pass, so as not to let Zhang Xiu go south. "


    Zhang Lu said: "I hope so!"


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, outside the hall, a soldier entered and reported: "Shijun, general Zhang Wei asked to see you."


    Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu''s brother.


    In wudoumi religion, although Zhang Wei never participated in anything, as Zhang Lu''s younger brother, he was naturally different.


    Zhang Lu heard the soldier''s words and said, "please!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldier got the order, he turned to inform the police.


    After a while, Zhang Wei, dressed in armor, strode into the hall. Although he is younger than Zhang Lu, the difference is no more than one year.


    Seeing Zhang Lu, Zhang Wei arched his hand and said, "big brother!"


    Zhang Lu nodded and asked, "what are you doing here?"

 Chapter 691

    As Zhang Lu''s brother, Zhang Wei, who is in charge of military affairs, is determined to build meritorious service. Zhang Lu is the prefect of Hanzhong. As a matter of fact, Zhang Lu was even more absorbed in wudoumi Dao and devoted himself to the study of Taoist classics and some of Laozi''s Classics.


    Under this premise, Zhang Wei was the commander in chief of the army and took charge of the army for Zhang Lu.


    Zhang Wei looks quite excited, said: "brother, I just got the news that Zhang Xiu led the army, has gone straight to xiegu pass."


    "Yes


    Zhang Lu nodded and answered.


    Zhang Wei asked, "what is elder brother going to do?"


    Zhang Lu sighed: "Zhang Xiubing is sharp and sincere. The only thing I can do is to order Yang Yi to stick to xiegu pass and not to go out. "


    "Big brother Miao Yi!"


    Zhang Wei shook his head in disapproval.


    Zhang Lu said, "what do you suggest?"


    Zhang Wei raised his head and said: "with big brother''s prestige in Hanzhong, there are countless believers following big brother. Just a big brother''s order to go down, Hanzhong people are all soldiers, enough to resist Zhang Xiu. In Hanzhong, everyone can serve as a soldier, and everyone can serve as a big brother. We are weak, but we have our advantage. "


    At this point, Zhang Wei clenched his fist, waved it in the air, and said: "so Zhang Xiu''s troops are at xiegu pass. I don''t agree with the insistence. I suggest sending troops to fight against Zhang Xiu. Why are we afraid of Zhang Xiu in Hanzhong? "


    After hearing this, Yan Pu said, "General Zhang, it''s not right to fight Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhang Wei said, "what''s wrong?"


    Yan Pu replied: "Zhang Xiu''s military front is well known in the world. At the beginning, Zhang Xiu only had Nanyang, so she easily defeated Cao Cao''s army; Zhang Xiu defeated Yuan Shao with her own strength. Dare to ask general Zhang, can you defeat Cao Cao and Yuan Shao


    Zhang Wei raised his head and said, "I haven''t had a fight. I don''t know yet. What''s more, don''t you know what''s going on in Hanzhong. There are countless gullies in Hanzhong, so the war can be different. The fighting here is different from that outside the pass. When we are in Hanzhong, we have the advantage of geographical location and harmony of people. We have the advantage of time, geographical location and harmony of people. We have the advantage to win. "


    Yanpu Junlang''s face showed a helpless look.


    Zhang Wei is full of confidence.


    He didn''t know how to persuade Zhang Wei to give up. In desperation, Yan Pu can only turn his eyes to Zhang Lu and signal him to deal with the matter.


    Zhang Lu didn''t speak as well as Yan Pu. He snorted and said decidedly, "don''t talk nonsense. Don''t send troops for the time being. Step back!"


    "Big brother!"


    Zhang Wei was in a hurry.


    Without Zhang Lu''s orders, he couldn''t even move the army.


    Zhang Lu said: "back down!"


    Zhang Wei clenched his teeth and turned to look at Yan Pu. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Pu, you are a soft egg. I trust you most. You persuade me to stick to it. This time Zhang Xiu went south to Hanzhong, it was clearly our chance. As long as you defeat Zhang Xiu, your reputation will surely increase. At that time, who dares to underestimate elder brother? I will be able to rise again. "


    "Back off!"


    Zhang Lu scolded again.


    His face was full of anger.


    Zhang Wei is familiar with his elder brother. As soon as he sees Zhang Lu''s expression, he knows that Zhang Lu is on the verge of anger. With a flick of his sleeve, he turns around and leaves angrily.


    Zhang Lu looked at Yan Pu and said with relief, "military adviser, this is the second brother''s character. You don''t have to worry about it."


    Yan Pu shook his head and said slowly, "well, the reason why general Zhang is eager to fight is also for Shijun. So, I don''t think it''s a bad job. It''s just that Zhang Xiu is good at fighting. We''re not strong enough, so we can only stick to it. "


    "Now, we can hold on to xiegu."


    "If you want to get more, you even have to beat Zhang Xiu. But what if we lose? It is a must for military strategists to consider defeat before victory. Regardless of the consequences of failure, they want to fight in the interests of victory. In the end, once the army is defeated, Hanzhong will face the danger of collapse. "


    Yan Pu said, "we have only Hanzhong. We can''t do anything rashly. What''s more, there is Liu Zhang in the south. We should know that the relationship between Shijun and Liu Zhang is not harmonious. Once we make a mistake, maybe Liu Zhang will fall down the drain. "


    "What the military adviser said is true!"


    Zhang Lu, with a look of approval, appreciated Yan Pu''s caution.


    As a matter of fact, Zhang Lu is not very interested in chasing the world. His ambition is to preach, to spread the wudoumi Dao, let more people know the wudoumi Dao, let more people believe in wudoumi Dao.


    At the beginning, he was ordered by Liu Yan to seize Hanzhong. In fact, he did not mean to rebel. If Liu Zhang had not killed his family, Zhang Lu would not have ruled Hanzhong separately.


    Zhang Lu waved his hand and said, "go ahead, commander."


    "Here it is


    Yan Pu bowed down.


    After Yan Pu left, Zhang Lu buried himself in his book and studied the Taoist classics in his eyes. Soon after, an attendant came in and reported: "Shijun, there is a man named Zuo CI outside. He has come to visit.""Please


    Zhang Lu gave the order directly.


    He was very happy in his heart. Zuo Ci was a famous Taoist alchemist in the world.


    Zhang Lu is willing to communicate with such people.


    Not long after, Zuo CI entered his study. When he saw Zhang Lu, Zuo CI shook his hands and brushed the dust. He said, "Zuo Ci, I''ve met my master."


    Zhang Lu said: "you don''t have to be polite."


    After a pause, Zhang Lu said with admiration: "Zuo Daoyou is a young man with lofty hair and noble character. He is full of dust. At first sight, he is a master of Taoism. Say, I really envy Zuo Daoyou


    Zuo CI lifted up his robe and sat down. He said with a smile: "Shijun praises Miao. Shijun''s five Dou rice way and poor way are also deeply admired. And now, I''m not an outsider. I don''t hide it from Shijun. Now, I work under the command of Taiwei Zhang Xiu and am worshipped as a real person. "


    Zhang Lu''s eyes narrowed when he heard the speech.


    Zuo CI is from Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Lu''s eyes gradually sharpened, and he said in a deep voice: "is it not that Zuo Daoyou came to persuade me to submit to Zhang Xiu?"


    "Of course not!"


    Zuo answered shaking his head.


    Zhang Lu asked: "Zuo Daoyou didn''t come to persuade me. Why did you come?"


    Zuo CI stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "I came to Hanzhong this time to exchange Taoism and manage believers with Shijun. I''m a real person appointed by Taiwei. I''m not in charge of government affairs or military affairs. I''m only in charge of the affairs of my Taoist followers. "


    "Now there are Taoists in Taiwei''s command, but there are many other witches, ghosts and alchemists. According to Taiwei''s order, I will gradually get rid of these messy witches'' sacrifices, leaving only my Taoist integrity."


    "But these are not easy to deal with."


    "Under the command of Taiwei, I got the news that Shijun''s five Dou rice way made all believers believe in it, and even made the people no longer believe in the rest of the gods and spirits. So, I''m here to talk with Shijun. "


    Zuo CI talked with sincerity and said, "besides understanding the management of believers, he also wants to exchange Taoist knowledge with Shijun. That''s my intention."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Lu heard this, he said with a big laugh: "brother Zuo Dao is worthy of being a true man with a broad mind, which is admirable. If you don''t tell me who you are, I don''t know. But you said it directly. Taoist brother really believes in people. "


    Zuo CI said: "everything can be said to others. The battle between Taiwei and Shijun is a matter of your government and military affairs. There are boundaries in the jurisdiction of various princes, but Shijun and I have learned about Taoism, but they don''t know boundaries or each other. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Lu was overjoyed.


    He felt that Zuo Ci''s words were simply wonderful.


    Zuo CI looked at Zhang Luxi''s smiling face, relieved. When he came to Hanzhong, he did not involve lobbying Zhang Lu, but mainly influenced Zhang Lu''s impression of Zhang Xiu.


    As for the others, there is no plan.


    Just so, after seeing Zhang Lu, Zuo CI said his identity without saying a word. In this way, it is conducive to his action and will not be scared by Zhang Lu.


    They talked and laughed from time to time, which was very congenial.


    In particular, Zuo Ci was familiar with Taoist classics and was better at alchemy. His Taoist knowledge is far more profound than Zhang Lu''s, so the more Zhang Lu talks with Zuo Ci, the more he admires Zuo CI.

 Chapter 692

    After Zhang Wei left the prefecture, he went straight to Qingfeng Pavilion in the city to drink. Qingfeng Pavilion is the largest restaurant in Nanzheng, with many aged wines.


    As a familiar guest of Qingfeng Pavilion, Zhang Wei found a window seat on the second floor and enjoyed the scenery outside the window. He drank muggy wine one by one and was very depressed.


    In Hanzhong, Zhang Wei was mainly responsible for military training. He constantly trained soldiers, constantly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the army, and even continued to pull arms and weapons to enrich the army, just to fight on the battlefield. What''s the point of a general who keeps training his soldiers but can''t fight to kill the enemy?


    After several cups of wine, Zhang Wei''s face relaxed slightly.


    All of a sudden he said, "come on!"


    A pro with fast past, salute way: "general what command?"


    Zhang Wei said, "please Yang Song!"


    "Here it is


    I''ll call you immediately.


    Yang Song is one of Zhang Lu''s most valued counselors. Not only that, Yang Song was the leader of the Yang family in Hanzhong, and he was a direct member of the Yang family. Even though Yang Yi, who is stationed at xiegu pass, is also a member of the Yang family, his identity is a side branch, a very lonely Yang family.


    Pro with notice, Zhang Wei at this time, it is no longer drinking, eye drops yo yo rotation. He could not persuade Zhang Lu by himself, so he planned to use Yang Song''s power.


    Because in front of Zhang Lu, Yang Song also has a considerable voice.


    It''s not long. Yang Song is here.


    Yang Song is more than thirty years old. He has a good face, but his eyes are small and narrow, which destroys the structure of the whole face, making Yang Song look like a small family and greedy.


    Yang Song arched his hand and said, "I''ve seen the general!"


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Wei beckoned Yang Song to sit down.


    Yang Song took care of himself and took up the wine bottle. After drinking a glass of wine, he took a long sigh of relief and said, "the general is in a hurry to invite me here. I don''t know. Is there anything important?"


    Zhang Wei said: "there is one thing I really need your help!"


    Yang Song said: "general, it''s OK to say that as long as Yang song can help, he will not refuse."


    "Cheerfulness!"


    Zhang Wei''s face was full of joy.


    When Yang Song saw Zhang Wei''s look, he chuckled. He was also a counselor under the command of Zhang Lu and was highly valued by him. But Yang Song also knows that Zhang Wei''s identity is very important, and he is also a person Zhang Lu relies on.


    After all, Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu''s brother.


    Zhang Wei can sell a good, can help Zhang Wei, after he encountered things, Zhang Wei will help him.


    It''s mutual.


    Zhang Wei body slightly forward, zhengse way: "about Zhang Xiu south, has approached xiegu pass news, you know."


    "I know!"


    Yang Song answered directly.


    With a solemn look on his face, Zhang Wei said: "after discussing this matter with Yan Pu, my elder brother ordered Yang Yi to defend xiegu pass and defend the enemy outside xiegu pass. But I don''t agree with such a scheme. "


    Yang Song said, "how did the general think about it?"


    Zhang Wei replied, "Hanzhong has been supporting troops for thousands of days. There are tens of thousands of troops in Hanzhong, so they are going to fight against Zhang Xiu. In Hanzhong, there are countless followers of wudoumi Dao. As long as the elder brother orders, there will be countless followers to follow. Everyone in Hanzhong is a soldier. Everyone can fight with weapons. Under such premise, I don''t believe I will lose to Zhang Xiu. "


    Yang songdun understood.


    Zhang Wei is not willing to stick to it and wants to take the initiative to fight Zhang Xiu. In fact, in Yang Song''s opinion, Zhang Xiu is a real famous general. His counsellors are like clouds and his generals are like rain. It''s almost impossible to directly compete with Zhang Xiu. It''s a fight against stone with eggs.


    But Yang Song doesn''t care.


    What Yang Song cares about is real interests.


    If you help Zhang Wei, you can get Zhang Wei''s favor and help him to do things in Hanzhong.


    Yang Song turned his eyes and said: "under the present situation, it''s not easy to persuade Shijun to send troops. Especially in front of Shijun, Yan Pu had the right to speak. Even I don''t have Yan Pu''s say. "


    Zhang Wei said: "I know. I know exactly. That''s why I came to you. Sir, you are resourceful. Think of a way for me. I will persuade my elder brother to agree to send troops. "


    Yang Song said, "it''s difficult."


    He did it on purpose.


    Is to increase the difficulty, so that Zhang Wei can appreciate him. If Zhang Wei made a request, Yang Song agreed directly and patted his chest directly, saying that the matter would be solved easily. Zhang Wei may not be very grateful to him.


    But Yang Song deliberately increased the difficulty, and the situation was different.


    Zhang Wei sighed and said, "I know it''s not easy. Sir, it is precisely because the matter is not easy to handle that I want to invite you to discuss it. "


    Yang song suddenly said: "general, the battle on the battlefield can not be divided overnight. When it comes to dealing with Yan Pu, I also need time to think about the plan, so that I can have a panacea. You give me a day. I''ll go back to your house and think about it. I''ll call on the general in person tomorrow and tell him what to do. What do you think? ""No problem!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Wei expressed gratitude on his face and said, "it''s bothering Mr. Zhang."


    Yang Song said: "what did the general say? Between you and me, how can we share each other? The general''s business is my Yang Song''s business. Please don''t worry, general. I''ll certainly come up with a complete solution. "


    Zhang Wei stood up and bowed to Yang Song.


    After Yang Song''s return, he was very happy.


    In fact, the reason why he mentioned thinking about one day was to arouse Zhang Wei''s appetite and make him appreciate it. Tomorrow, I''ll tell Zhang Wei the strategy, and with his ability, I may not be able to persuade Zhang Lu to send troops.


    Yang Song didn''t stay much, so he got up and left.


    At this time, Yang Song was very happy.


    Because this time, he is sure to make a fortune and get Zhang Wei''s favor, which can''t be measured by value.


    Yang Song left Qingfeng Pavilion in a carriage. Shortly after he returned to his house, a servant came to report: "my Lord, there is a man from outside the house who claims to be an old friend of my Lord. I''m here to visit you."


    "Please


    Yang Song had some accidents.


    When, he still has old friends to visit, but Yang Song is also welcome.


    Soon, a young man entered.


    It was Pang Tong.


    Although Pang Tong''s appearance is very common, but these years Pang Tong was in a high position, and he had a great momentum. Standing in the hall, bearing just like. When he saw Yang Song, he bowed his hand and said, "under the gate of Taiwei Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong has seen master Yang''s book!"


    Under the command of Zhang Lu, Yang Song took the post of chief bookkeeper.


    As soon as Yang Song heard Pang Tong''s words, his eyebrows rose and he was shocked. With a wave of his hand, the attendant at the door withdrew. Soon after, another attendant stood guard at the door, forbidding anyone to enter.


    Yang Song examined Pang Tong and said, "if I remember well, what kind of secretary would Pang Tong be under Zhang Xiu''s door. You are Zhang Xiu''s most important person. You came here by yourself. I don''t know. Why are you here? "


    Pang Tong said, "come for master Yang''s book!"


    Yang Song snorted, with an angry look, and said, "I''m not easy to get along with. You''re here for me. Today, I''ll take you down and give you to the Lord."


    "Alas..."


    Pang Tong sighed.

 Chapter 693

    Yang Song said: "Pang Shangshu, why sigh?"


    Pang Tong said: "I''m coming at the command of Taiwei. I''m sincere and ready to make friends with master Yang. I didn''t expect that master Yang had the intention of harming others. It''s a pleasure to have friends from afar. I came all the way here. Unexpectedly, master Yang wanted to take me. What''s more, I have prepared a gift for this visit. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong continued: "master Yang''s book is very important to me. Isn''t it a boo?"


    Yang Song''s heart clapped and his eyes widened.


    Presents!


    He remembers these two words, which is the most important thing Yang Song cares about.


    Yang Song is greedy. He is greedy and takes money as his life. He had a bright smile on his face. No longer did he have the angry look just now, he leaned forward slightly and said with a smile: "Pang Shangshu, I did it on purpose just now. I did it on purpose to scare you. I don''t have to worry about it. I don''t have to worry about it."


    The words are full of joy.


    I''m looking forward to it.


    As soon as Pang Tong saw Yang Song''s virtue, he was scornful in his heart, but he continued: "I''m afraid I didn''t prepare a gift. I''m really going to be taken down by master Yang and asked for a crime."


    "Joking, joking."


    Yang Song waved his hand one after another in a joking manner.


    Speaking of this, Yang Song once again said, "Pang Shangshu has come. I don''t know what gift he has prepared?"


    A simple dialogue, Pang Tong heart feel Yang Song''s temperament. This is a people who only want to make money, even more money. As long as he has the temptation of money, he can abandon everything, even his self-esteem and face.


    Villain!


    Pang Tong had a judgment in his heart.


    But Pang Tong didn''t show any idea, and said, "come on, move the gift in."


    With Pang Tong''s order, his attendants went to send orders. After a while, two attendants came in carrying a big box. This box is four feet high, six feet long and two feet wide. It can hold many materials.


    The attendant went into the hall and put the box down.


    Pang Tong said, "master Yang, please look at it!"


    Yang Song''s neck slightly elongated and looked up as if he wanted to see through the objects in the box. He rubbed his hands and couldn''t wait to get up and come to the box. At this moment, Yang Song''s eyes were shining, his breath was short, and he couldn''t help licking his lips.


    He bent down and put his hand on the lid of the box. With a little force, he opened the box.


    WOW!!


    When Yang Song saw the gift in the box, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    That face is full of greed.


    The face was full of joy.


    Excited, Yang Song picked up a string of pearls and a piece of gold cake. After putting down the golden cake, he carefully played with the jade in the box, and the whole box was shining.


    In this box, there are countless treasures.


    They are all for Yang Song.


    Wealth and silk moved people''s hearts. Pang Tong wanted to use these jade treasures and let Yang Song use them for him.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Yang Song took several deep breaths in succession. After calming down his inner feelings, he gritted his teeth, covered the box, and then walked back to his seat.


    Yang Song looked at Pang Tong and said, "Pang Shangshu gives such a generous gift. I don''t know. What do you want?"


    Pang Tong said: "this gift is simply given to master Yang. It''s a meeting gift."


    "Seriously?"


    Yang Song was even more excited.


    Pang Tong looked confident and said, "my Lord has the paper-making technique of Xuan paper and other printing techniques. He has made countless money. The money in the government coffers has piled up into mountains, and the grain in the grain depots has piled up countless. As for the rest of the money, there are countless treasures. This gift is not even a drop in the bucket. "


    "Yes, yes, Tai Wei Zhang is rich."


    Yang Song nodded one after another, with a look of approval, and said: "Zhang Taiwei is young and promising, which is admirable. At such a young age, he not only controls Guanzhong, Liangzhou and Jingzhou, but also has so much money, which is enviable. "


    Pang Tong laughed and said, "well, this time I''ve been here, I really need master Yang''s help. Of course, it''s not for nothing. As long as master Yang''s book is finished, my Lord will have more money to thank him. Today''s gift is just a small one. "


    Yang Song is not loyal to Zhang Lu. He comes from the Yang family in Hanzhong. It''s the so-called iron aristocratic family, the Taishou of running water. No matter who comes to Hanzhong or who is in charge of Hanzhong, he has to rely on the Yang family.


    Therefore, Yang Song has no burden.


    Yang Songzhong is devoted to the Yang family and the golden money.


    Yang Song narrowed his eyes and said: "Pang Shangshu, please say that as long as I can do it, I will never refuse. Zhang Taiwei thinks highly of Yang Song. It''s my honor. "


    Pang Tong said, "cheerfulness!"


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "now the intention I need to achieve is to hope that Yang Yi of xiegu pass can take the initiative to send troops. It''s not, it''s always stuck at xiegu pass. "Pang Tong has got the information of xiegu pass.


    Xiegu pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The inner Canyon is long and winding, and the narrowest part is less than one foot. Under such a premise, the xiegu pass, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack, is a natural moat, blocking Zhang Xiu''s road to the south.


    This is the trickiest part.


    Pang Tong knew that Zhang Xiu''s troops were stationed at xiegu pass and he could not go south. His primary goal was to let Yang Yi send troops. As long as Yang Yi leaves xiegu pass, it will be much easier to deal with him.


    Yang Song thought about it and said, "in fact, it''s impossible for Yang Yi to send troops."


    Pang Tong said, "why?"


    Yang Song replied: "Shijun''s military adviser, Yanpu, has always insisted on guarding. Under the premise of Yan Pu''s obstruction, it is difficult to persuade Shijun. In particular, Yang Yi himself was very proficient in the art of war. It''s not easy for Yang Yi to take the initiative in sending troops. "


    Yang Yi was born in the Yang family of Hanzhong, but he was not directly related to Yang Song. So Yang song can''t take care of Yang Yi''s affairs. He only cares about his own money and his own Yang family.


    Pang Tong asked: "is it possible that there is no way?"


    "Of course there is a way!"


    Yang Song raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "when it comes to Pang Shangshu, how can I ignore it? In fact, although Zhang Lu intends to guard, Zhang Lu''s brother, Zhang Wei, insists on sending troops. "


    "Especially today, Zhang Wei went to see Shijun and asked him to go north to xiegu pass. However, Shijun refused, so that Zhang Wei was very depressed. "


    "As long as Zhang Wei arrives at xiegu pass, he will change his strategy, change his Garrison plan, and go all out to fight. Today''s top priority is to promote Zhang Wei''s going north. "


    Yang Song''s brain turns quickly and makes a quick analysis.


    Pang Tong said: "but just now master Yang has said that it is almost difficult to promote Zhang Wei to go north. After all, Yan Pu blocked him."


    Yang Song said: "the crux lies in Yanpu. As long as Yan Pu is solved, things will be easy. "


    Pang Tong said, "I have a suggestion for this."


    Yang Song said in a deep voice: "don''t say to assassinate Yanpu. Once you kill Yanpu, I''m afraid Shijun will be angry. At that time, the whole of Hanzhong will be in turmoil, and it will be more difficult for you to escape. "


    "Of course not!"


    With a smile on his face, Pang Tong confidently said: "in fact, it''s very simple. We just need to find a reason to transfer Yanpu away from Nanzheng for a period of time. In this way, Yanpu won''t be able to affect Zhanglu soon? Under such a premise, it is not difficult for you to persuade Zhang Lu. Especially with Zhang Wei, it''s easier, isn''t it? "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Yang Song looked happy in his eyes and said, "Pang Shangshu is really powerful. He is right. Your suggestion will solve the current problem. I''ll do it tomorrow. "

 Chapter 694

    Yang Song said, "Pang Shangshu, I took Zhang Taiwei''s money and helped him with his work. However, when Zhang Taiwei broke xiegu pass, he went down from xiegu road to Hanzhong. At that time, I''m afraid Zhang Taiwei will kill me. After all, I took his money. "


    Pang Tong laughed and shook his head again.


    For Yang Song, he looks down on him.


    Even, once Zhang Xiu''s army went south to Nanzheng, Pang Tong was ready to suggest that Zhang Xiu kill Yang Song. This man is too greedy, far more greedy than some people Pang Tong saw in the past.


    It can be said that it is greedy without any faith.


    Pang Tong didn''t like this.


    A man who can betray at any time for money is useless, but Pang Tong didn''t show it.


    Yang Song said, "Pang Shangshu, what are you laughing at?"


    Pang Tong said: "what I laugh at is that master Yang is too worried. I can tell you clearly that your worry is totally groundless and unnecessary."


    "First of all, people love it. Even me, I like it. I like the golden cake and the shining treasure."


    "Second, master Yang has talent and the ability to govern local areas."


    "Third, the Yang family, where Yang Zhubo is located, is a big family in Hanzhong. If the Lord wants to govern Hanzhong, he must rely on the Yang family. It is not easy to govern Hanzhong without the assistance of the Yang family. "


    "Fourth, the Lord has always been kind to those who have surrendered. As long as I submit to my Lord, I have never seen anyone killed from beginning to end. In my mind, master Yang''s book has already been subordinated to the Lord, and he works for the Lord. "


    Pang Tong said with relief, "so there is no need to worry about master Yang."


    After listening, Yang Song had a smile on his face.


    That seems to be the case.


    Yang Song settled down and said, "OK, I believe in Pang Shangshu. Pang Shangshu seldom comes to Nanzheng, but he is willing to stay in his family. These days, I have people take Pang Shangshu to visit Nanzheng. "


    "No need!"


    Pang Tong shook his head and said, "I have many tasks in Nanzheng County. Today, after visiting master Yang, I have to visit other people. "


    Yang Song said: "Pang Shangshu, don''t worry. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the prefect''s residence to see Shijun. I will persuade him. In addition, I will also mobilize the strength of my Yang family and try my best to win over the people you can win over. "


    "Thank you, master Yang."


    Pang Tong said: "I''d like to thank you for your contribution. At the same time, I will report all the achievements of master Yang to the Lord without missing a word. "


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    Yang Song was very happy.


    That''s what he wants.


    Pang Tong stopped staying and left. After he left the Yang family, he took his relatives around the road several times. With the help of the royal guards in Nanzheng County, he quickly disappeared and returned to a house in the west of the city.


    Pang Tong said that he wanted to visit other people, but he would not go today. Because he hasn''t decided on the person to visit, he has to wait for the news from the royal guards.


    Now, after persuading Yang Song, the task has been initially achieved.


    In the evening, Zuo CI came back.


    When Zuo CI saw Pang Tong in the hall, he bowed his hand and said, "Pang Shangshu, I have established a good relationship with Zhang Lu when I enter Zhang Lu''s house."


    "Although Zhang Lu knew I was Taiwei''s man, he was not wary of me. Now, I just need to influence Zhang Lu a little bit, imperceptibly, let Zhang Lu know Taiwei''s ruling policy, let Zhang Lu know Taiwei''s personality, should be able to change some of Zhang Lu''s views on Taiwei. "


    On Zuo Ci''s face, there was also a look of expectation.


    "Enough!"


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "with the influence of Taoist priest Zuo, Zhang Lu may not resist when the LORD goes to Nanzheng County in the future. I have convinced Yang song here. Tomorrow morning, Yang Song will see Zhang Lu and ask Zhang Lu to send Zhang Wei out. "


    Zuo CI stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "fortunately, fortunately!"


    When he was ordered to go south, he still hoped that he could finish the task smoothly, at least not without success. Otherwise, it would be a shame to go back.


    The two discussed, and then arranged things separately.


    After all, each has a task.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Yang Song got up early in the morning, but he didn''t go to the prefect''s house to see Zhang Lu immediately. Instead, he went to his underground treasure house and carefully counted the treasures and jades he had collected over the years.


    After checking, Yang Song sat down in his study with a faint smile on his lips.


    The money, treasures and jade were his life.


    It''s his favorite.


    He didn''t rush to the prefect''s residence, because Zhang Lu got up very late in the morning. Most of the time, it''s time to get up.


    Yang Song did not take the initiative to go out, but listen to the waiter report, Zhang Wei came. Yang Song didn''t dare to delay. He hurried out of his study and went straight to the hall, saying, "General Zhang, why did you come early in the morning?"Zhang Weichen said in a voice: "Mr. Yang, do you have a plan?"


    "Yes!"


    Yang Song replied with a smile.


    Zhang Wei quickly stretched out his hand, directly grabbed Yang Song''s wrist, and said: "go, go, we''ll see big brother now. As long as my elder brother agrees, I will dispatch troops to fight immediately. I tell you, all my troops have been ready to fight in the early morning. "


    "No hurry, no hurry!"


    Yang Song broke free from Zhang Wei''s hand and said, "General Zhang, it''s useless to be anxious. I just want to say, as long as Yan Pu is here and Shijun values Yan Pu so much, can we persuade him to succeed? "


    Zhang Wei said, "what do you mean?"


    Speaking of this, Zhang Wei suddenly said: "do you want me to kill Yan Pu? No, no, it''s not. I really let my elder brother know that I have to peel my skin when I do this. Yanpu is the most valued person of elder brother. We can''t mess around. "


    "Who said to kill him?"


    Yang Song sighed and said, "General Zhang, listen to me. After a night''s meditation, I came up with a solution. Early in the morning yesterday, I received news that Liu Zhang''s people had frequent activities near Micang mountain in Bajun. This matter can be big or small. I can suggest Shijun to invite Yanpu to take charge. In this way, Yanpu left Nanzheng County. It''s not easy for you and me to persuade Shijun? "


    "Wonderful


    Zhang Wei applauded with a happy look on his face.


    That''s a good suggestion.


    "Let''s go, let''s go," Zhang said


    "No hurry!"


    Yang Song stopped again and said, "you don''t know that Shijun always forgets to eat and sleep when he studies Taoist classics at night. Under such circumstances, when we go now, Shijun hasn''t got up. Isn''t he just waiting for us? "


    After a pause, Yang Song continued: "what''s more, general, if you go, Shijun will see through the plan. I can only go to see Shijun by myself. Otherwise, the plan will be seen through and there will be no way to remedy it. "


    "Alas


    Zhang Wei sighed.


    He patted Yang Song on the shoulder and said, "I remember Mr. Yang''s kindness in my heart. This time, Mr. Yang is so righteous that Zhang Wei won''t forget it. "


    Yang Song said: "General Zhang is polite. Whether it''s you or Yan Pu, it''s actually for the sake of your teacher. But Yan Pu is too timid and too conservative. "


    Zhang Wei a pair of you understand my expression, way: "is such, Yan Pu this person, the courage is too small."


    Zhang Wei was very happy when they chatted.


    At the end of the day, Yang Song got up to leave and went to the prefect''s house, while Zhang Wei was waiting in Yang Song''s residence.

 Chapter 695

    Yang Song took a carriage on his way. It wasn''t long before he came to the palace. He was a regular guest of the prefect''s mansion. The people in the mansion didn''t stop him. They just turned around and went to inform him.


    Yang Song enters the room and waits in the hall. Soon, a servant delivers the message. Zhang Lu asks him to go to his study.


    Yang song came to the study, saw Zhang Lu and said, "Shijun!"


    Zhang Lu rouhe''s face, with a bright smile, asked: "Sir, what can I do for you?"


    Yang Song has great respect for him.


    On the one hand, Yang Song has certain ability to govern the local areas for him and give advice; on the other hand, the Yang family is a big family in Hanzhong, so he must rely on the strength of the Yang family to maintain local stability.


    Yang Song said: "I came here because Liu Zhang''s troops were frequently mobilized in the direction of Micang mountain. Shijun, it''s not big, but it can''t be underestimated. "


    Zhang Lu is also very clear about the situation in Hanzhong. Micang mountain is located in the south of Hanzhong, bordering Bajun.


    He attached great importance to Liu Zhang.


    Because the relationship between the two sides is not good, it can be said that it is a feud.


    Zhang Lu said in a deep voice: "Sir, since you have found out this matter, how do you think you should deal with it?"


    Yang Song replied: "at the beginning, the layout of Micang mountain was arranged by Yan Junshi. And the people in Micang mountain were promoted by Yan Junshi. "


    "I think it''s better to send Yan Junshi to go to Micang mountain in person to calm things down."


    "Micang mountain is stable, Hanzhong south is safe, we can go all out to fight against Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, it will be extremely unfavorable for us to be attacked to the north and south of Hanzhong and to be attacked by Zhang Xiu and Liu Zhang at the same time. "


    Yang Song gives suggestions.


    His goal is to transfer from Yanpu, so that Yanpu can not affect Zhang Lu.


    "So it is


    Although Zhang Lu didn''t deal with government affairs very much, and most of the affairs were handled by Yang Song and Yan Pu, he was able to clear up the problem of general direction. The deployment of Micang mountain is extremely important.


    Don''t take it for granted!


    Zhang Lu immediately said, "come on!"


    One of the attendants entered, and Zhang Lu directly said, "go and ask the military adviser to come to discuss the matter."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    After a short time, Yan Pu entered in a hurry, bowed to Zhang Lu and said, "Shijun, what''s the matter?"


    Yan Pu didn''t look down on Yang Song from the bottom of his heart, because he was greedy and had no principle or integrity. However, Yan Pu was born in a poor family. Because of Zhang Lu, he was promoted and appointed.


    Yang Song was born in a big family. The influence of the Yang family was deeply intertwined and had a great influence in Hanzhong. Therefore, Yan Pu didn''t want to be an enemy to Yang Song, but he didn''t want to deal with Yang Song more, so he kept a distant attitude.


    Zhang Lu immediately said, "what about Micang mountain, can the military adviser know?"


    "I know!"


    Yan Pu looked up at Yang Song and said, "yesterday, I got the news of Micang mountain. In the direction of Micang mountain, Liu Zhang''s army did have frequent activities. However, I think it''s not a big matter. After all, our garrison in Micang mountain is enough to ensure the safety of Micang mountain. "


    "No!"


    Yang Song shook his head and solemnly said, "everything should be prevented before it happens. In the direction of xiegu pass, Shijun''s command goes on, which makes Yang Yi unable to stick to it. This is a special prevention, just need Yang Yi to stick to it. If we ignore the direction of kemicang mountain, in case Liu Zhang''s army becomes the climate. When the time comes, how can we face it? "


    Yan Pu frowned.


    For a moment, he didn''t understand Yang Song''s intention. He and Yang Song have known each other for many years. He asked himself to understand Yang Song''s character. Yang song goes to the hall of three treasures for everything. He must have something to talk about.


    Otherwise, Yang Song will not do it.


    Zhang Lu also agreed with Yang Song''s words and said in a deep voice: "I agree with Mr. Yang''s suggestion, military adviser. Our main task now is to resist Zhang Xiu. In the case of Micangshan, it''s not small or big. "


    "If you don''t care, there will be problems."


    "At the beginning, the garrison of Micang mountain was arranged by the military division. This time, the military division went in person. We should strive to properly handle the affairs of Micangshan within one month. "


    Zhang Lu ordered: "then the military division quickly returned to Nanzheng County to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack."


    "Here it is


    Yan Pu didn''t refuse. He responded directly.


    But there was something unexpected in his heart. Why did Yang song make a mountain out of a molehill and send him to Micang mountain.


    It''s weird.


    It''s just that Yan Pu hasn''t figured it out for a while.


    After Zhang Lu''s arrangement, he can''t wait to study Taoist classics. Especially after yesterday''s talk with Zuo Ci, Zhang Lu had many doubts, and his thoughts were completely open.


    Zhang Lu should take advantage of Zuo Ci''s time in Nanzheng County to sort out all the classics one by one. After all, we can draw on Zuo Ci''s wisdom now.Zhang Lu waved Yang Song and Yan Pu back, and they walked out of the palace. Yan Pu looked at Yang Song and said in a deep voice, "master Yang, you should be very clear about Micang mountain. Even if I don''t go, it''s not a big problem. But what''s the intention of master Yang to send me to camp like this? "


    "No intention!"


    Yang Song chuckled and replied, "I don''t have any other thoughts and thoughts. If I have any thoughts, I don''t want you to go, but ask the Lord to arrange for another person to go to deal with the affairs of Micang mountain. At that time, all your lineages in Micang mountain will be eradicated. The reason why I let you go is to sell you a good one. "


    Yan Pu squinted and looked at Yang Song. It seemed that he wanted to see clearly how Yang Song''s heart thought.


    "Goodbye!"


    Yang Song didn''t say much. He got on the carriage and left.


    Yan Pu sighed in his heart that he had no choice but to carry out the task arranged by Zhang Lu. In a hurry, he went back to his house, made a simple arrangement, and left Nanzheng County.


    After Yang Song returned to his residence, Zhang Wei met him directly and asked, "how are things going, sir?"


    "It''s done!"


    Yang Song looked confident and said: "Shijun has ordered Yanpu to rush to Micang mountain to deal with the matter. Without Yan Pu''s dissuasion, it''s not difficult for general Zhang to go to xiegu pass. "


    "But it must be very difficult for general Zhang to persuade Shijun to fight against Zhang Xiu."


    "Not even possible."


    Yang Song said: "I suggest that what general Zhang wants to do is not to fight with Zhang Xiu. It''s general Zhang. You are worried about the war in xiegu pass, so you are ready to lead your troops to the north and stay in the pass. You won''t take the initiative to fight with Zhang Xiu. In this way, Shijun will allow you to go north. "


    Zhang Wei frowned and said, "is it meaningful to go north like this? If I can''t fight with Zhang Xiu, why should I go north to xiegu pass? I might as well stay in Nanzheng County. "


    Yang Song said, "General Zhang, I''m a Miao!"


    Zhang Wei said, "what do you mean?"


    Yang Song explained: "the general will be outside, and military orders will not be accepted. The rank of General Zhang is higher than that of Yang Yi. So Yang Yi had to obey General Zhang. After arriving at xiegu pass, general Zhang can judge the situation and decide the war according to the situation. In this way, even if general Zhang went out of the city, it was normal. After all, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. "


    After a pause, Yang Song said, "but I also advise General Zhang that when you arrive at xiegu pass, you must judge the situation. It''s only when it''s suitable to go out that we can go out. If you don''t have a chance, just wait for it in the pass. "


    Zhang Wei burst out laughing, slapped Yang Song on the shoulder and said with a smile, "yes, yes, sir, you are really good. I remember your kindness. I know what to do. Goodbye


    Yang Song said: "General Zhang, wait a minute. You can''t go to see Shijun immediately. Or wait until evening or tomorrow. In this way, we can avoid the suspicion of Shijun. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang Wei nodded, no longer stayed, turned and left in a hurry.


    Yang Song looks at Zhang Wei''s back and smiles. This time, he killed two birds with one stone, not only completed Pang Tong''s entrustment, but also made friends with Zhang Wei.


    In the evening, news came out.


    Zhang Wei got Zhang Lu''s permission and led his troops north to xiegu pass. When Pang Tong got the news, he went to Yang Song''s mansion that night and sent a box of treasure again.


    Yang Song, who got the money, was very happy.


    A small matter, he got Zhang Wei''s gratitude, and got two boxes of treasure, it is a big profit.

 Chapter 696

    The next morning, Zhengnan county was on the border.


    Yan Pu is riding fast. He set out to go south yesterday and headed for Micang mountain. But in the evening, he didn''t go on his way. After getting up in the morning, he continued to go on his way.


    When Yan Pu was on his way quickly, there was a man and a rider in the rear, who rode quickly.


    The sound of the horse''s hoof is very urgent.


    Its sound is continuous.


    When Yan Pu drove his horse on the road, he also heard the movement from the rear.


    He stopped his horse and looked back.


    "Sergeant, Sergeant!"


    Suddenly, a voice came from behind. It was not long before the time was late. The driver of the rear quickly caught up with him and stopped beside Yanpu.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    People on the way are very short of breath.


    Yan Pu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    When he left Nanzheng County, Yan Pu specially instructed his subordinates to report the situation immediately without delay. When Yan Pu saw someone coming, his heart was hanging in the air.


    The messenger said: "military division, the latest news, yesterday afternoon in the evening, Zhang Wei led 30000 elite troops, left Nanzheng County and went north to xiegu pass."


    Yan Pu''s face suddenly changed and asked, "what''s the matter?"


    At this moment, Yan Pu was extremely anxious.


    Yan Pu has been following Zhang Lu for many years. He knows Zhang Lu''s character, his brothers'' character and Zhang Wei''s character. Zhang Wei didn''t experience many wars. He had never seen the outside world and didn''t know that there were Heaven and people outside.


    Therefore, Zhang Wei always wanted to make contributions.


    Zhang Wei is the main combatant!


    Once Zhang Wei leads his troops to the north, he will probably send his troops to fight with Zhang Xiu, and then Zhang Wei will be defeated.


    "Report back to the military division, after you leave. In the evening, Zhang Wei went to see Shi Jun. The news is that Zhang Wei only said that he would lead his troops to the north and would not take the initiative to fight. Shijun couldn''t resist Zhang Wei''s persuasion and finally agreed. Then Zhang Wei led his troops North in a hurry. "


    "Oh, I''ve got it!"


    The look on Yan Pu''s face suddenly changed.


    He thought that as soon as his front foot left Nanzheng, Zhang Wei''s back foot immediately sent out troops, which was clearly Yang Song''s calculation.


    Yang Song took an excuse to transfer him from Nanzheng County. After Yan Pu left Nanzheng, there was no one around Zhang Lu to persuade him. Maybe Yang song would even help Zhang Wei say a few more words. Zhang Lu would certainly agree.


    Zhang Wei kept saying that he would not fight, and Zhang Lu had no reason to stop him.


    Yan Pu turned his horse''s head and immediately ordered: "go, go back to Nanzheng County immediately."


    "Ah


    With a look of surprise, the visitor said, "the military division is going back, too?"


    "Must go back!"


    Yan Pu gritted his teeth and said, "if we don''t go back, we will be swallowed by Zhang Xiu in Hanzhong. The matter of Micangshan is a trivial matter, not a hindrance. When it comes to Zhang Xiu, we can''t delay. "


    "Here it is


    No more words.


    "Drive!"


    Yan Pu slapped on the horse''s back. In an instant, the horse neighed, just like an arrow, and rushed out. The messenger also keeps up and runs back quickly.


    Yan Pu never stopped running all the way. Even at noon, he didn''t stop to have a rest. He didn''t even eat lunch. Only in the afternoon, the horses were almost unable to support.


    Continuous high-intensity running, the horse can not bear.


    When he got close to Nanzheng, Yanpu easily transferred the horses. After changing the horses, he rushed all the way without stopping. At the end of the afternoon, Yan Pu returned to Nanzheng County.


    At the moment, Yan Pu looks very tired. After running for a whole day, he was not a cavalry or a general. His legs were numb, and even his inner thighs were worn.


    Yan Pu can''t manage all this.


    He was full of the war at xiegu road in the north, worried that xiegu pass would be broken, and Zhang Xiu''s army would go all the way south.


    Yan Pu rushed to the north of the city and came to the prefecture. As soon as he got off the horse, his legs were so soft that he fell to the ground with a plop.


    "Commander!"


    Standing at the gate of the prefect''s mansion, the porter who knew Yan Pu came up and helped him up. He looked worried and didn''t understand why Yan Pu was so embarrassed.


    Yan Pu ordered: "go to inform Shijun, Yan Pu asked to see you."


    "Here it is


    The porter didn''t dare to delay, so he rushed in to report.


    After entering the gate, Yan Pu slowly stood up and tried to step into the palace. When he came to the hall of the prefect''s residence, after waiting for a while, he saw the porter come out and said, "military adviser, Shijun is meeting guests. He said you have something to do. We''ll talk about it tomorrow."


    Yan Pu suddenly became angry.


    He is full of anxiety, desperate to come back, is worried about the safety of Hanzhong, Zhang Lu did not see him.Yan Pu asked, "who is Shijun meeting?"


    "Zuo CI!"


    The porter replied again.


    Yan Pu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "Zuo CI is a alchemist under Zhang Xiu''s command, even worshipped as a real person by Zhang Xiu. How did he come to Hanzhong? "


    "I don''t know!"


    The porter shook his head and said, "I only know that Zuo CI came yesterday and talked with Shijun. I''ve been talking with you for two or three days. "


    "I know!"


    Yan Pu waved his hand and gave an order.


    The porter turned back and did not dare to stay. As the gatekeeper of the prefect''s mansion, he could observe the words and the colors. When he saw Yan Pu''s appearance, it was clear that he was on the verge of explosion.


    Such a Yanpu, he did not dare to stay, in case of being affected on the tragic.


    Yan Pu stayed in the hall, waiting quietly. When he arrived at the prefect''s residence, it was already evening, and the sky was about to end. As time went by, an hour passed quietly.


    This was supposed to be the time for dinner, but in the prefect''s house, there was no intention of eating, and no one even asked Yan Pu.


    This makes Yan Pu more angry.


    Two hours passed again.


    Unconsciously, when Yanpu was tired and hungry, it was almost midnight. Yan Pu''s eyes were cool and angry.


    Zhang Lu, who always thought he was wise, now ignores government affairs and only studies Taoism. Even, he was blinded by Zuo Ci, and he was so stupid.


    Suddenly, Yan Pu''s ears moved.


    He heard the conversation.


    The voice of one of them is Zhang Lu''s. Another voice, rich and sonorous, full of Zhongqi. Between the two people talking, from time to time, there are hearty laughter.


    No need to guess, it must be Zhang Lu and Zuo CI.


    Yan Pu stood up, rubbed his waist, put his hands on his knees, endured the pain of his thighs, and walked out of the hall, looking at Zhang Lu and Zuo CI.


    "Shijun!"


    Yan Pu spoke.


    Hearing Yan Pu''s voice, Zhang Lu was a little surprised and said, "Why are you still at home, commander. I''m not telling you. I''m visiting. You should go to Micang mountain, but you turn back in the middle. What''s the matter? "


    When Zuo CI heard Zhang Lu''s words, he glanced at Yan Pu.


    As a alchemist, he will see some faces. Especially among the other information we got, Yan Pu was known as Zhang Lu''s first military division and Zhang Lu''s most valued person.


    Zuo CI turned his mind and said, "Shijun, it''s late at night. You don''t have to go far. I''ll leave. Today, I have learned a lot from talking with Shijun. Tomorrow, I will visit you again. "

 Chapter 697

    "Take your time, no see off!"


    Zhang Lu replied with a smile.


    He and Zuo CI exchange Taoist experience, talk about heaven and earth, talk about the eternal life of Taoism, there are many gains. Originally, Zhang Lu''s knowledge of Taoism had not improved for several years. After talking with Zuo Ci, he felt that he had entered a new world.


    "Zuo Ci, you are not allowed to go!"


    Yan Pu stares at Zuo CI with a cold face and speaks directly.


    Zuo CI turned to stop and looked at Yan Pu. His face was calm and puzzled. But he didn''t stay on Yan Pu''s body. He turned his eyes to Zhang Lu and said, "Shijun, do you see?"


    Zhang Lu scolded: "Yan Pu, don''t be rude. Taoist Zuo CI is a man of great virtue. "


    Yan Pu gritted his teeth and said, "Shijun, Zuo CI is a demon. Not only that, but also Zhang Xiu. This time he came to Nanzheng, he must have been ordered by Zhang Xiu to deal with you


    Zuo CI said: "if the poor way is a demon way, is Shijun also a demon way? Shijun and I are both friends of Taoism. Although we are not in the same line, poverty is the root. We are all descended from Laozi, the sage of Taoism. "


    Yan Pu hummed: "you don''t have to avoid the heavy and take the light. You are Zhang Xiu''s man."


    "Enough!"


    Zhang Lu was furious.


    On weekdays, Zhang Lu is gentle and gentle. He also listens to Yan Pu. However, when it comes to Taoism, Zhang Lu will be very paranoid. Although Yan Pu was Zhang Lu''s military strategist, in fact, Yan Pu did not believe in five Dou rice.


    So although Yan Pu knew Zhang Lu, he didn''t know Zhang Lu''s character. A true believer knows the madness of entering the Tao only when he has obsession in his heart.


    Yan Pu bit his teeth and said angrily, "Shijun, you must not be deceived by Zuo CI. This person must have been sent by Zhang Xiu. He came to Nanzheng in Hanzhong just to deal with you. Please learn from him. "


    Zhang Lu''s big sleeve brushed and said indignantly, "Yan Pu, I''ve said enough. Don''t think you''re smart enough to know everything, and don''t judge a gentleman with a villain''s heart. "


    "Zuo Daoyou''s identity, he said a long time ago."


    "This time Zuo Daoyou came to Nanzheng. As soon as he saw me, he had already said that he was the real person appointed by Zhang Xiu. Zuo Daoyou is open-minded and can say everything to others. He is a high-ranking scholar


    With a look of disappointment, Zhang Lu said, "it''s really disappointing that you speculate so much about people''s minds."


    Yan Pu''s face changed again and again. He didn''t expect that Zuo Ci''s calculation was so deep. When he came to see Zhang Lu, he told him his identity, deliberately created the illusion that he was a Taoist, and also said that he came to exchange Taoist experience.


    What a deep calculation!


    Good Zhang Xiu!


    Knowing that xiegu pass is hard to break, he threw himself into his favor and specially sent Taoist Zuo Ci to bewitch people.


    Yan Pu was even more angry.


    Zhang is more angry than Zhang. Zhang is even more impatient to help Zhang.


    This is equivalent to hand over his foundation to Zhang Xiu.


    "Sonorous!"


    In his anger, Yan Pu held his sword on the hilt of his waist, pulled it out of its sheath, and thrust it into the ground. Immediately, Yan Pu knelt down on the ground with a plop and said solemnly: "Lord, Zuo CI is a demon, absolutely true. This time, he must have come on purpose to deceive the Lord. I beg you to kill Zuo CI here. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhang Lu was completely angry.


    He did not expect that the normally reasonable Yan Pu was so pedantic and stubborn.


    What a jerk!


    When Zuo CI saw this scene, he looked helpless and sighed: "Shijun, it seems that I shouldn''t have come. Well, in order to avoid Shijun''s embarrassment, I left Nanzheng overnight. Because of the poor way things, make the teacher King internal trouble, this is the poor way''s crime. When things in Hanzhong are over, I''ll ask Shijun for advice. "


    Zhang Lu''s expression was extremely embarrassing.


    He regards Zuo Ci as a friend of Taoism, and thinks that Zuo Ci''s understanding of Taoism is more powerful than his own. So he hoped that Zuo CI would stay in Nanzheng for more days.


    In anger, Zhang Lu went to Yan Pu and kicked him out. Just listen to a bang, Yan Pu was kicked to the ground. Zhang Lu continued: "Yan Pu, I tell you, brother Zuo Dao is not like that. What you have done is to envy a gentleman with the heart of a villain. Now, if you apologize to Taoist brother Zuo, this matter will be exposed. "


    Zuo Ci was happy in his eyes.


    In fact, he didn''t expect this scene. Because Pang Tong had successfully transferred Yanpu from Nanzheng by using Yang Song.


    Unexpectedly, Yanpu came back by himself.


    Then, it happened.


    The current situation is surprising, but it is more conducive to Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Zuo CI is happy.


    The expression on Zuo Ci''s face was still very indifferent, and he continued: "Shijun, you don''t have to be like this, and you don''t have to criticize Yan Junshi. It''s not good for you to feel bad about me. According to the poor way, this is a misunderstanding. Let master Yan go back, and I also leave Nanzheng. Everyone is happy. ""No!"


    Zhang Lu shook his head directly.


    The paranoia in his eyes was very firm. In his heart, he had made a decision and would never let it go easily. Otherwise, what does Zuo CI think of him? What will the world''s virtuous people think of him?


    At that time, who will come to Hanzhong to learn Taoist knowledge and study Taoist classics? It''s about Zhang Lu''s face, and it''s more about wudoumi Dao''s face.


    Zhang Lu scolded: "Yan Pu, apologize immediately."


    "No way!"


    Yan Pu was also stubborn. He knelt down on the ground, raised his head, threw his head on the ground and said in a voice: "Shijun, today I have no one. Shijun, do you choose to believe in the humble position or the evil way of Zuo CI


    Zuo CI has lived for so many years, and he is especially good at judging people''s hearts, because this is the foundation of his life. When he heard Yan Pu''s words, his heart burst into laughter.


    Yan Pu is stupid!


    Yan Pu''s words are tantamount to threatening Zhang Lu, especially Zhang Lu who is completely on his side. Sure enough, when Zhang Lutun got angry, he gritted his teeth and said, "you Yanpu, you are self righteous. Do you really think Hanzhong can''t work without you? How dare you intimidate me! Good! I''ll help you! "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Lu gave the order directly.


    In an instant, several attendants entered and stood in the yard.


    Zhang Lu''s big sleeve brushed and ordered: "take Yan Pu into custody and put him in prison. I don''t believe it. Without you, Yanpu, I can''t run in Hanzhong. "


    "Dui, dui! Zhang Lu, you are bound to regret it. "


    Yan Pu was so angry that he swore.


    He is anxious to turn back from the halfway, just for the safety of Hanzhong. But at the end of the day, Zhang Lu believed in a demon way, and he and Zuo CI looked very good, which made Yan Pu very angry.


    "Drag it down, drag it down for me!"


    Zhang Lu is very angry and has been waving. After half a sound, Yan Pu was dragged down, while Zhang Lu looked at Zuo Ci and apologized constantly, saying sorry in a hurry.


    Zuo CI said, "Shijun, you don''t have to apologize. I feel guilty about what happened. "


    "Not necessarily!"


    Zhang Lu shook his head and said solemnly: "brother Zuo Dao, tomorrow, I''ll wait for you. My conversation with you today has opened up many places. But in many places, it''s not bright enough. "


    Zuo CI pondered for a moment, then said: "Shijun''s kind invitation, I''m not polite. Goodbye!"


    With that, Zuo CI turned and left.

 Chapter 698

    After leaving the prefecture, Zuo CI went back to his residence. The place where he lives now is aboveboard and there is no hidden trace so that Zhang Lu can find it.


    If Zuo CI wanted to hide his whereabouts in Nanzheng, wouldn''t he have made it clear that he was suspected. Therefore, it is Zuo Ci''s aboveboard attitude that can make people not doubt and make Zhang Lu feel at ease.


    When Zuo CI returned to his house, he went straight to the backyard and knocked on the wall which was only one wall away from the next. With the bang bang sound, not long after that, a ladder was set up on the opposite side. Pang Tong climbed up the wall and entered the yard quickly.


    Pang Tong lived in a hiding place.


    But he lived next door to Zuo Ci, so easy to contact.


    Seeing Zuo Ci, Pang Tong asked, "Taoist priest Zuo, is there any new progress?"


    "Yes, and it''s a big step forward."


    Zuo CI answered with a look of excitement in his eyes.


    Pang Tong said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zuo CI couldn''t wait to say: "this evening, I left Yanpu in Nanzheng and came back to Taishou''s mansion again. He came to the prefect''s house to see Zhang Lu. He didn''t know that Zhang Lu was talking with me. "


    "Zhang Lu is sincere in Taoism and is extremely obsessed with Taoism. In particular, Zhang Lu''s wudoumi Road, though handed down from Zhang Daoling, has many imperfections. "


    "Although it has its advantages, its theory is insufficient. After all, Zhang Lu did not study Taoist classics. So here I am, he keeps learning. "


    Zuo CI said with emotion: "speaking of it, Zhang Lu is really gifted in Taoist learning. He can draw inferences from one instance. Even what he said the day before, by the next day, he is already familiar with it and can grasp it easily."


    Pang Tong waved his hand and interrupted: "Taoist Zuo, don''t talk about Zhang Lu, let''s talk about Yan Pu. Zhang Lu has little to do with us. Yan Pu asked to see Zhang Lu. What happened to the follow-up? "


    Zuo CI went on to say, "at that time, Yanpu wanted to see Zhang Lu, but Zhang Lu was obsessed with Taoism, so he didn''t care about Yanpu. I didn''t expect that Yan Pu didn''t leave the prefect''s residence. Instead, he was waiting in the hall until late at night. "


    "That''s when I''m ready to leave."


    "It happened that Yan Lu left the garden himself."


    "Yanpu immediately thought that I was plotting against Zhang Lu, and Zhang Lu was the one who sent me to deal with me. Zhang Lu is now convinced of me, plus I have previously made clear the identity, Zhang Lu is not willing to deal with me


    Zuo CI said: "who knows, Yan Pu knelt down and asked Zhang Lu to make a choice. Yan Pu and I can only save one. Finally, Zhang Lu put Yan Pu in prison. Today''s Yan Pu is in custody. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Pang Tong looked happy and said, "when the Lord attacked Hanzhong, he didn''t worry about Zhang Lu or Zhang Lu''s army. Only Yan Pu was afraid of him. Because Yan Pu is a visionary man in Hanzhong, who has a great influence on the Lord when he is around Zhang Lu. "


    Zuo CI said, "what Pang Shangshu said is true."


    After a pause, Zuo CI said, "it''s just that Yanpu left Nanzheng, why did he come back?"


    Pang Tong flashed a light in his eyes and said with a smile: "Yan Pu is very worried about the situation in xiegu pass. He once tried to prevent Zhang Wei from sending troops. He should have arranged people to pay attention to Zhang Wei''s situation. "


    "After learning that Zhang Wei had sent troops, he came back in a hurry."


    "It''s nothing to say about Micang mountain. The most important thing is xiegu pass. He should have come back in a hurry. "


    Pang Tong said, "Yan Pu is a visionary man. Unfortunately, he is with the wrong person."


    Zuo CI said, "it''s true!"


    As soon as the words changed, Zuo CI said, "now that Yanpu has been put into prison, do you want to deal with Yanpu again?"


    "No need!"


    Pang Tong shook his head and said, "after the news of Yanpu''s imprisonment came to Yang Song''s ears, he would arrange people to suppress Yanpu''s family. Yanpu could only stay in his cell. Such people do not affect the overall situation. Next, let''s look at the situation of xiegu pass. "


    Zuo CI nodded and said no more.


    He has no other task. He just needs to have a good relationship with Zhang Lu and learn from each other. Although Zhang Lu''s Taoist knowledge is not as profound as Zuo Ci''s, there are many praiseworthy aspects in his doctrine of wudoumi Dao.


    Pang Tong didn''t stay any longer. He turned to climb up the ladder and went back to his yard to write letters quickly. Then he called to the royal guards all night to send the letters back to them as soon as possible.


    The sentry is very fast and must be ahead of Zhang Wei.


    After all, Zhang Wei went north, carrying 30000 troops.


    Zhang Wei''s limit is that 30000 troops are on their way quickly and travel hundreds of miles every day. The sentinel sent the message, but it was far faster than that, so Pang Tong''s sentinel arrived at xiegu pass first.


    When the sentry leaves xiegu pass, Zhang Wei''s army has not arrived.


    Now there is no war inside and outside xiegu pass. The only one is the soldiers who came to fight recently. Every day, these soldiers repeatedly scolded Yang Yi, even spilled horse urine, and constantly humiliated Yang Yi.But Yang Yi was not moved.


    Such a person, even after Zhang Xiu saw this, was also admired.


    Yang Yi is not well-known. No matter how good Yang Yi is at leading the army to fight, Zhang Xiuwei will praise him for his patience alone. It is because Yang Yi''s persistence, all people''s scolding and provocation have not played any role.


    The first news Zhang Xiu received was that Zhang Wei was about to go north and Yan Pu was transferred from Nanzheng. On this news, Zhang Xiu is happy, he arrived at xiegu pass for a period of time, but stopped at xiegu pass. Less than a day later, Zhang Xiu got the news that Pang Tong sent her back, elaborating on Yan Pu''s imprisonment.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she sent someone to call Sima Yi and tell her the latest news.


    After hearing this, Sima Yi thought about it and said, "Lord, since Zhang Wei is going north, and Yan Pu has been put into prison. As long as we take Zhang Wei and the army breaks through xiegu pass and enters Hanzhong, it will be very easy to take Zhang Lu. "


    "The current situation is to increase the humiliation of Yang Yi. In this way, we can further stimulate the arrival of Zhang Wei. According to the information sent back by Pang Shangshu, Zhang Wei was ready to fight. "


    "He just went north in the name of garrison. When he arrived, he would find a reason to fight. And we humiliated Yang Yi, and Yang Yi didn''t fight. That''s why Zhang Wei sent troops. "


    Sima Yi analyzed the current situation.


    "That''s exactly what it is," said Zhang Xiuyan


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu said: "you arrange to let the soldiers of all the armies go to scold the wartime, humiliate Hanzhong army as much as possible, and humiliate Yang Yi as much as possible."


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi got the order and bowed to it.


    Now, Sima Yi has full confidence in this war. I believe that in a short time, the army will go south. When Sima Yi left the Chinese Army''s tent, he made an appointment with Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and a Guli, arranged Zhang Xiu''s orders, and quietly waited for the news of Zhang Wei''s arrival.

 Chapter 699

    Within xiegu pass, the road to Hanzhong is quite wide.


    This is where Hanzhong army is stationed.


    Only this area can hold tens of thousands of people. Rao is so long and winding, occupying a long place. In many places, there are narrow roads. As a result, the army can''t move fast and will become a long snake.


    Zhang Wei''s army is like this.


    Thirty thousand troops are on their way. They are already in the middle of xiegu road. However, this situation, but can not affect Zhang Wei''s mood, he now, can''t wait to arrive at xiegu pass, ready to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Wei has been training for many years and thinks that his strength is not bad.


    Zhang Wei''s heart is wild. He hopes that he can defeat Zhang Xiu, and then step on Zhang Xiu''s bones to become a famous general in the world, so as to become famous.


    This is Zhang Wei''s ambition.


    In late April, the army arrived at xiegu pass.


    When Zhang Wei arrived, Yang Yi met him in person. Zhang Wei didn''t say anything. All the soldiers he brought were stationed in the pass. Yang Yi received Zhang Wei, after the placement of officers and men, then led Zhang Wei, came to the city tower of xiegu pass, and sat down in the hall.


    When Zhang Qianwei got to his seat, he didn''t let him go straight.


    When Yang Yi saw this, he didn''t say anything.


    After all, Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu''s brother and has a great reputation in the army. In addition, Zhang Wei is a general in xiegu pass, while Yang Yi is just a general stationed at the pass, which can''t be compared with Zhang Wei.


    Everyone is seated.


    Zhang Wei''s eyes fell on Yang Yi and asked, "Yang Yi, tell me about the recent war?"


    Yang Yizheng sat in danger and said, "report back to the general, there has been no war recently. From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu sent people to fight and curse, but I didn''t pay any attention to them. I let Zhang Xiu''s army curse. "


    "Shame


    Hearing this, Zhang Wei''s face cooled down and his face was full of anger.


    Zhang Wei didn''t agree with Yang Yi''s overall defensive strategy. Because in the current situation, he thinks that it is necessary to attack Zhang Xiu in an all-round way.


    Yang Yi''s face was stiff.


    The look on his face was very embarrassing.


    As the leader of xiegu pass, Yang Yi thinks that there is no mistake in his practice, let alone pick out any mistakes. Even, in order to defend xiegu pass, he ignored his reputation and let Zhang Xiu''s army abuse him.


    Yang Yi took a deep breath, adjusted his mood and said: "General Zhang, Zhang Xiu is powerful. With our strength, it''s obviously not appropriate to go through the first World War. Only by sticking to xiegu pass can I keep xiegu pass safe. "


    "Ha ha..."


    When Zhang Wei heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of contempt.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Zhang Wei''s face gradually indifferent, said: "you Yangyi from beginning to end, are in defense. I, Zhang Wei, have never heard of a city that can''t be broken. I''ve never heard of a barrier that can be held all the time. You can defend all the time. Can you defend all the time? If you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of them. In today''s situation, I don''t think defense is a good way


    After hearing this, Yang Yi frowned. He had received the news that although Zhang Wei came to xiegu pass, he was also stationed at xiegu pass to help him.


    Zhang Wei''s words, inside and outside, are clearly ready to fight.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier entered. The soldier looked eager and reported: "General Yang, Zhang Xiu''s people are here again."


    Yang Yi waved his hand and said, "don''t pay attention to it."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to turn around and retreat.


    Just when the soldiers were about to quit, Zhang Wei yelled, "wait a minute!"


    Zhang Wei stood up and said, "how can we just sit back and ignore the current situation. Come on, let''s go and have a look. After Zhang Xiu''s army comes, how does it talk? "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Wei stood up and went out with the crowd.


    A group of people came to the tower, Zhang Wei''s face suddenly black down. Standing on the tower, you can clearly feel the smell lingering in your nose.


    "What''s the matter? The taste on the castle is so strong!"


    Zhang Wei asked with a black face.


    When he asked, in the distance outside the city, there were soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, holding shields and approaching quickly. On their backs, these soldiers also carried a wooden bucket with a wooden cover, and quickly approached the building outside xieguancheng.


    One by one, the soldiers stop quickly and throw out the barrels.


    Then, he withdrew.


    "Bang Dang! Kuangdang


    One bucket fell to the ground, and dozens of buckets fell to the ground at the same time. In an instant, a stench filled Zhang Wei''s face.


    There''s no need for an explanation. He understands.This is the provocation of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, who specially arranged for people to dump their feces in wooden barrels under the city tower.


    That''s the reason for the stench.


    "Yang Yi, Yang Yi, is timid and afraid of death. He does not dare to fight."


    "Yang Yi, Yang Yi, is most afraid of death!"


    "Yang Yi is a woman!"


    ¡­¡­


    Such words are constantly ringing from outside the city, echoing inside and outside the city tower. All the soldiers in the xiegu pass heard the shouts from outside the pass. They were silent and solemn.


    Zhang Wei looked at Yang Yi and asked, "General Yang, is this your garrison?"


    "Yes


    Yang Yi answered directly.


    He just stated a fact, which is the current situation. In order not to fight against Zhang Xiu, he can only do so, regardless of how Zhang Xiu''s soldiers drink and scold or humiliate.


    Otherwise, he will lose xiegu pass after losing the first battle out of the city. He can''t bear the responsibility.


    Zhang Wei looked disdainful and said: "very good, very good. You Yang Yi''s face is really thick. You can endure such humiliation. Are you Yang Yi, my man in Hanzhong? "


    Yang Yi said: "General Zhang, I am thinking about the overall situation."


    With a flick of his sleeve, Zhang Wei turned to look up at the city tower and the soldiers guarding the city. He said in a loud voice: "my son, I''m Zhang Wei. Now I''m at xiegu pass under the command of Shijun. I ask you, would you like to be humiliated and drunk every day like this? "


    "No!"


    In the crowd, there are soldiers shouting.


    In the current situation, these soldiers stationed with Yang Yi are humiliated every day. They have been extremely angry and unwilling to endure for a long time.


    Zhang Wei''s inquiry won everyone''s approval.


    "No!"


    "We don''t want to!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers are shouting. All the ordinary soldiers on the upper floor of the city screamed, with a great momentum. With more and more people shouting, all people''s voices converge into one voice.


    That is not willing to hold back.


    Yang Yi looks at such a scene, looks embarrassed, but his heart is full of deep loss. He sticks to xiegu pass, regardless of everything, regardless of his reputation. Now in exchange, it is such a scene.


    It''s helpless!


    Even more lost!


    Zhang Wei took a look at Yang Yi and looked like he had won. He asked again, "I''ll ask you again, are you willing to fight against Zhang Xiu''s army? How dare you fight? "


    "Fight


    "Fight


    "Fight


    ¡­¡­


    The cry came again.


    More and more soldiers, shout. Among the soldiers'' shouts, the voice was loud and excited.


    They are willing to fight.


    They dare to fight.


    Zhang Wei raised his hand and pressed down to signal all the soldiers to be quiet. When all the soldiers were silent, Zhang Weihan said, "good. You dare to fight. You are my good son in Hanzhong. Ben is going to lead you to defeat Zhang Xiu


    The soldiers heard the words and cried out again.


    More and more soldiers, shouting, the voice is more intense.


    At this moment, Zhang Wei was very proud.


    Zhang Wei is very clear that from this moment on, even if he does not deprive Yang Yi of his military power, the soldiers under Yang Yi will no longer follow Yang Yi''s command, but his command.

 Chapter 700

    Zhang Wei raised his hand and pressed down, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said, "except for the soldiers sitting on the upper floor of the town, all the others will return to the barracks in the pass, waiting for the general''s order."


    "Here it is


    All the soldiers on the tower, who are ready to defend, leave in unison.


    There was no one left but a few soldiers on the tower. Looking at this scene, Yang Yi''s face was full of helplessness. He opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them directly.


    Yang Yi is very clear that the soldiers in the army are no longer willing to listen to his orders.


    On the one hand, Zhang Wei has a bigger official position.


    On the other hand, when the soldiers followed Yang Yi, they were humiliated by Zhang Xiu''s soldiers and accumulated countless anger. Under this premise, no one is willing to listen to Yang Yi''s orders.


    Zhang wei walked up to Yang Yi, patted Yang Yi on the shoulder and said coldly, "Yang Yi, those who have gained more help and those who have lost less. Although you have the heart to work for big brother, you are also loyal. But Ben still looks down on you. Because you are a coward. You can''t get support in the army. "


    With that, Zhang Wei turned and left.


    As he walked, he ordered: "beat the drum for the general, and gather the troops to prepare for the battle."


    "Here it is


    One side of the pro guard to order, then began to shout up, to convey the order.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The sound of war drums resounded.


    With the sound of war drums, the soldiers stationed in the barracks of xiegu pass began to gather quickly. When Zhang Wei mobilized the army, he was in Zhang Xiu''s barracks eight miles outside xiegu pass.


    Soldiers who used to throw dung at xieguanguan belonged to the Heishan army. After they returned, they quickly reported the news to Zhang Yan. Because when these soldiers retreated, they had already heard "war!" The sound of the cry.


    When Zhang Yan got the news, she didn''t dare to delay, so she quickly went to the big account of the Chinese army and reported the news to Zhang Xiu.


    After learning the news, Zhang Xiu was very happy.


    Here we go!


    Zhang Wei must have arrived at xiegu pass!


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the troops to move. In particular, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong left the rear camp first, and another 10000 regular troops arranged by Zhang Yan left with Zhao Yun.


    The whole camp, move quickly.


    This move was carried out quietly, not in a big way.


    Time goes by little.


    Soon after, in the distance of the camp, there was a great battle drum.


    Zhang Wei leads the army to kill.


    Zhang Wei''s troops were 50000. In addition to the 30000 elite troops he brought from Chengdu, Zhang Wei transferred all the 20000 xiegu Guan Garrison under the command of Yang Yi.


    On the upper floor of xiegu pass, there were only less than 200 soldiers.


    This time, Zhang Wei mobilized all his soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu put on his helmet, straddled on his horse and strode out of the camp. When he came to the gate of the camp, he was surprised to see that there were 50000 elite soldiers led by Zhang Wei outside the camp.


    Zhang Wei is also a top helmet. He rides his horse forward and looks at Zhang Xiu''s camp. He says in a loud voice: "I''m Zhang Wei, general of Hanzhong. Where''s Zhang Xiu


    "I am the official!"


    Zhang Xiu held her head high and stood at the gate of the camp.


    Behind Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yan, a Guli, Zhang Yan, Ma Chao, Wang Yue and others all rode their horses. Their faces were very serious.


    They all know that today''s war is the end of xiegu pass.


    Defeat Zhang Wei and capture xiegu pass.


    Just today.


    The whip in Zhang Wei''s hand was raised, and there was a voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, today I''m going to kill you. Under the command of this general, there are all excellent soldiers. Kill your army like a chicken or a sheep. You surrender now, and I''ll spare your life. If you insist on fighting, today next year will be your memorial day for Zhang Xiu. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    It''s not a pretense.


    Zhang Xiu has been on the battlefield for many years, but he has never seen anyone dare to talk so much in front of him.


    Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao did not dare.


    Not to mention Zhang Wei.


    Zhang Wei continued: "Zhang Xiu, even if you pretend to laugh to cover your inner panic, it''s useless. Today, in front of my army, you will surely be defeated. The difference is, you surrender to survive, or you are killed. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I''m Zhang Xiu. It''s the first time I''ve seen you like Zhang Wei. People like you are looking for death. You Zhang Wei are so powerful, do you dare to fight with me alone? "


    Zhang Wei snorted, disdaining a way: "that''s the courage of every man!"


    Although he is in Hanzhong, he knows about Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is very good at martial arts. She is invincible with a powerful gun. Let him alone against Zhang Xiu, there is no foundation to win.


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth raised a disdainful look of disdain and said again: "since you don''t want to be brave, now, I''ll give you the chance to fight, then fight. I''ll see what you can do? Come on, I''ll let you attack first. "Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to die?"


    "Yes, I want to die!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and said: "I, Zhang Xiu, just live impatiently and don''t want to live. I want you, Zhang Wei, to kill me."


    "Where is li Liu?"


    Zhang Wei gave a loud order.


    "The end will be here!"


    With Zhang Wei''s order, a middle-aged man with a big body but not tall came out. This man is a general under Zhang Wei''s command. Although he is less than 170 cm tall, he has great strength. He has a sharp axe in his hand. He is a strong general of Zhang Wei.


    Zhang Wei ordered: "you lead 5000 soldiers, as a forward, kill them for me."


    "Here it is


    Li Liu immediately mobilized 5000 soldiers and attacked directly.


    At the moment when li Liu leads the soldiers to kill, Zhang Xiu nods to Ma Chao. In an instant, Ma Chao brought up the golden spear of tiger head Zhan and directly drove the horse out. Behind Ma Chao, there were more than 5000 flying Qiang troops.


    When Ma Chao led the troops to fight, shamoko had already rubbed his hands and said, "Lord, please fight at the end of the day!"


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but she didn''t stop her.


    Shamoko came forward quickly with the bone of Tribulus terrestris. His eyes fell directly on li Liu. Because when the other party comes out, he stares at li Liu.


    When the two sides fight, shamoko is even more happy to see that Ma Chao is not against li Liu. When the two sides fight at the gate of the camp, shamoko sprints quickly, and in a twinkling of an eye, he enters the crowd.


    Shamoko raised his head and scanned his eyes. At this time, Ma Chao also entered the Hanzhong army. I saw Ma Chao''s golden spear in his hand moving forward, invincible and unstoppable.


    Ma Chao is like a sharp knife.


    He kept going forward.


    Under the leadership of Ma Chao, the flying Qiang army crushed and killed. These Qiang soldiers, mobilized by shaodang Qiang, were originally able to fight well. Under the leadership of Ma Chao, they were even more brave.


    Shamoko settled down and didn''t care about Ma Chao''s affairs. He scanned his eyes again. After determining li Liu''s position, he swung and waved the iron thistle in his hand.


    The huge bones of Tribulus terrestris were swung and smashed, and soldiers of Hanzhong army were killed one by one. Or a broken head!


    Or chest depression!


    Even the whole head, it''s going straight out.


    It can be said that the land that shamoko has passed is ruined. In particular, he is extremely bloody in killing people, and he likes such a bloody fight. The blood splashed down, and he was stained with countless blood, all of which belonged to Hanzhong soldiers.


    Not long after that, shamoko killed li Liu with a crushing gesture. Seeing that li Liu swung his axe to kill the soldiers, he smashed the Tribulus terrestris in his hand.


    When li Liu heard the sound, he quickly raised his axe to resist.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of a violent crash sounded immediately.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, li Liu snorted, opened the axe in his hand, and was knocked out directly. The Tribulus terrestris Guduo''s head remained unchanged and went on hitting li Liu''s chest.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    "Poof!"


    Li Liu''s chest is sunken and his internal organs are broken. He vomited blood from his mouth and fell from his horse to the ground. The burly body falls on the ground, twitches twice, then has no breath.


    One face to face, li Liu was killed.

 Chapter 701

    "Kill


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Shamoko roared like a madman, like a demon. In his hand, where the iron Tribulus terrestris had passed, it brought countless flesh and blood, which could be described as extremely tragic. As a result, from the beginning, many people besieged shamoko. Gradually, no one dared to fight against shamoko head-on.


    Shamoko rushed forward, and soldiers gradually gathered around him.


    One by one, the soldiers kept sprinting.


    In addition, Ma Chao also led the soldiers to charge, forming a trap. In a flash, the 5000 soldiers led by Li Liu were defeated by Ma Chao and Sha Moke.


    This scene falls in Zhang Wei''s eyes. Zhang Wei clenched his fist and his face was full of anger. Li Liu is a great general under his command. It''s unforgivable that he was beaten to death directly.


    "Wang Li, you lead 20000 elite soldiers to kill Zhang Xiu."


    Zhang Wei ordered again.


    In an instant, another thin man came out.


    It was Wang Li.


    Holding a long knife, he led 20000 soldiers to rush up. Twenty thousand people were crowded and rapidly dispersed, forming an arc, encircling the 5000 elite soldiers led by Ma Chao and Sha Moke.


    Kill!


    Wang Li shouts the order.


    As a strong general under Zhang Wei''s command, the martial arts of Wang Li and li Liu are not much different. He was beside Zhang Wei and was killed when he saw Li Liu. Instead of rushing forward quickly, he hid behind and tried his best to direct the soldiers to attack.


    One by one, the soldiers of a troop of 20000 charged forward with knives. In a twinkling of an eye, they confronted the 5000 soldiers led by shamoko and Ma Chao. The influx of these 20000 troops injected vitality into the Hanzhong army, making the army, which had been constantly defeated, begin to stabilize and confront Zhang Xiu''s army again.


    There is a certain gap between the two sides.


    However, under the joint sprint of shamoko and Ma Chao, 5000 soldiers kept cutting back and forth. Even if Wang Li led a large number of soldiers, they could not occupy the advantage. That is to say, less than an hour later, the team of 20000 people gradually fluctuated and had already experienced turbulence.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    Shamoko is a madman on the battlefield, killing people with Tribulus terrestris. Continuous fighting, as if he did not know fatigue, the whole person was extremely excited.


    So is Ma Chao.


    One man, one shot, crisscross the enemy line, invincible.


    Almost unstoppable.


    Although the number of soldiers under either shamoko or Ma Chao is decreasing sharply, the killing on the battlefield is beginning to benefit shamoko and Ma Chao.


    Wang Li was in command at the rear of the town, looking extremely embarrassed.


    He has 20000 people.


    But now, there are signs of collapse. He constantly mobilizes the soldiers, hoping to stabilize the soldiers under his command, and then launches a counterattack, but there is nothing he can do.


    As a matter of fact, it was Wang Li who was in charge of the rear that could maintain this position. If Wang Li had gone to battle as early as li Liu, without Wang Li''s command, these 20000 people would have collapsed.


    With Wang Li, we can keep the army in order and maintain the fighting situation. Wang Li finds that she can''t hold on and sees that she is about to be defeated. She quickly arranges the soldiers to ask Zhang Wei about the situation.


    When Zhang Wei got the news, his face was very blue.


    What to do?


    Retreat now?


    But Zhang Wei is not reconciled, he came to xiegu pass, is to win the war, is to completely defeat Zhang Xiu. If he gives up halfway and retreats now, he will not. When he returns to Nanzheng, how can he face his elder brother? How to stand up in front of Yang Yi.


    This is all Zhang Wei''s consideration.


    "Give me orders, all the soldiers in the army, kill them for me."


    "It''s today to kill Zhang Xiu."


    "Kill


    Zhang Wei gave orders one after another. After the successive orders, the battle drums began to ring. Zhang Wei''s remaining 20, 000 soldiers, less than 30, 000, have all rushed up.


    Zhang Wei at this moment is like a gambler.


    He put all his eggs in one basket.


    It''s a fight against the back of the river.


    Zhang Wei stares big eyes, a pair of eyes because stare big boss, unexpectedly had blood. A moment later, he dismounted and came to the side of the drum in front of him to ring the drum himself.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums are beating.


    The sound of the drum is endless, one after another.


    The drums of this war greatly inspired all the soldiers of Hanzhong army. At the moment, there are still 30000 or 40000 Hanzhong soldiers on the battlefield, still fighting fast.


    At this time, Ma Chao and shamoko, though they tried their best to kill, were already stretched.


    After all, there are too many enemies.


    With a force of 5000, they are able to fight back against the attack of 20000. But Zhang Wei sent more troops to the battlefield again. All Zhang Wei''s troops were more than 40000, and the strength gap was too big.However, shamoko did not care about the situation on the battlefield, he just carried the iron tribulus and killed all the time.


    So does Ma Chao.


    Both of them are valiant generals on the battlefield. They have never been afraid. Even if you ride alone, you dare to fight. So even if the troops were not enough, they were still fighting back and forth.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the scenes on the battlefield with a faint smile in her mouth.


    In this war, Zhang Wei will lose.


    "Open your jaw!"


    Zhang Xiu said.


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhang chin put on his helmet and drove his horse forward with a solemn look on his face.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "lead your regular army to fight."


    "Here it is


    The jaw should be opened.


    Zhang Xiu looked at aguli and Zhang Yan, and ordered, "you two are going to fight with all your strength."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan and a Guli should take part at the same time.


    Both of them knew that Zhang Wei would go all out and put all his troops into the battlefield. Next, he didn''t need to worry any more. He just needed to fight with all his strength.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The sound of battle drums starts from Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    The drums of this battle are different from those of Zhang Wei''s soldiers. The drums are rumbling and resounding throughout the battlefield. With the sound of war drums resounding all over the world, Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan and aguli have led the troops to the battle.


    Zhang jaw previously dispatched ten thousand conventional troops to Zhao Yun to take away. Now he has only 10000 people under his command. As a veteran on the battlefield, Zhang jaw eyesight is excellent.


    Instead of facing the attack head on, he led the soldiers to the right wing of the battlefield. Zhang Yan, too, led the soldiers of the Montenegrin army to the left wing of the battlefield.


    Two people, one left and one right, including Zhang Wei.


    Aguli didn''t think much about it. He was straightforward and led the soldiers of the flying Qiang army to enter the battlefield from the front. He joined the forces of Ma Chao and Sha Moke and began a large-scale attack.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Tens of thousands of troops under Zhang Xiu''s command entered the battlefield and attacked on the left and right flanks. In the front, there were attacks from aguli, Ma Chao and shamoko. Under the strong attack, Zhang Wei''s troops fluctuated immediately.


    Zhang Wei clenched his teeth and ordered the soldiers to fight back.


    But the attack of both sides was not transferred by Zhang Wei''s will. Zhang Wei wants to win, but fighting on the battlefield can''t develop to Zhang Wei''s idea just because Zhang Wei wants to win.


    Not only that, Zhang Wei''s army began to show signs of collapse.


    The combat effectiveness of Zhang Wei''s soldiers is not equal to Zhang Xiu''s elite. In particular, Ma Chao, Sha Moke, Zhang Ya, Zhang Yan and others entered the battlefield and directly crushed them wherever they went.


    Zhang Wei had no way to turn the situation around when he was already defeated.


    As a result, the situation soon began to collapse.


    Some Hanzhong troops began to flee.


    Even Wang Li, as a general under Zhang Wei''s command, is scared to death. He directly withdrew to Zhang Wei''s side and said in a loud voice: "general, we can''t stop it. Let''s withdraw!"


    Zhang Wei looks embarrassed. From the bottom of his heart, he is not willing to retreat. Because this war has just begun. Now retreat means that this time his action will be a complete defeat.

 Chapter 702

    Wang Li has been following Zhang Wei for quite a long time. In such a long period of time, Wang Li knew Zhang Wei very well. She knew that Zhang Wei was not willing to retreat.


    But the current situation is critical.


    Wang Li once again said: "general, if we don''t retreat, the army will break up completely, and I''m afraid we won''t even have a chance to retreat after we are trapped. Now, we have to retreat. Please think twice. "


    "General, we can''t stop it."


    Another general came quickly with a look of panic on his face.


    "General, people are starting to flee."


    "General, people are beginning to surrender."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the generals gathered around Zhang Wei and spoke loudly. These people originally followed Zhang Wei and came to xiegu pass with Zhang Wei. They were all high spirited and thought that the club was invincible.


    Now, it''s full of worries.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, aggressive, fierce, unstoppable.


    "Go away!"


    Zhang Wei was helpless and gave a loud order.


    He looked at the battlefield, his face was helpless, more decadent. He is ambitious and ambitious. He wants to step on Zhang Xiu''s corpse and become a famous general in the world. He even makes his elder brother look down on him.


    But the reality is so tragic.


    He led 50000 troops, including his own 30000 elite troops, but now, they can no longer resist, they can only retreat.


    Come with ambition!


    When I leave, I feel helpless!


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The retreat of the Gong, resounding through the battlefield.


    With the retreat of Zhang Wei, Wang Li and others, Zhang Wei''s army began to retreat like a tide. But when they retreated, they were already entangled by Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Countless soldiers intended to retreat, but under the fierce attack, all the backward soldiers were killed.


    It''s all one-sided killing.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this scene, she had a calm look on her face. This scene was in his expectation. Although Zhang Lu lived in Hanzhong, in fact, he did not experience much war.


    In front of him and his soldiers, the Hanzhong army, which had been in Chengping for a long time, could only be slaughtered and could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army from attacking. The army rolled forward quickly, and no one could stop it.


    Those who can retreat with Zhang Wei all rush forward; those who can escape but still run around quickly to get rid of the army.


    As for those who finally fell behind, seeing the killing team, they no longer resisted, but knelt down and surrendered.


    There are more and more voices of surrender.


    The dense Hanzhong army, kneeling on the ground, was unwilling to resist.


    Ma Chao, shamoko, Zhang Ya and others, who had never been in charge of the surrendering soldiers and troops, continued to march forward. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu sat in the rear of the town, mobilized only a small number of soldiers left in the camp, followed closely, seized the surrender soldiers and detained them one by one.


    As Zhang Wei retreated, he became more and more nervous.


    When he drove his horse to the road, he looked back and saw the army coming from the rear. He was even more nervous. He patted his horse on the back and let the horse speed up.


    This is to avoid the pursuit from the rear.


    He had to withdraw from xiegu pass before the troops arrived, and then use xiegu pass to garrison. If Zhang Xiu''s army catches up with him, he can''t escape.


    At this moment, Zhang Wei had no ambition but to retreat.


    The sound of the horse''s hoof is heard in a hurry.


    Zhang Wei was at the front of the retreat. He and his generals drove his horses on the way, and drew a certain distance from the rear army. Just as Zhang Wei was retreating quickly, the sound of horse''s hooves suddenly sounded on the official road in front of him.


    "Boom!"


    The sound of horse''s hooves came one after another.


    The sound is so dense, so it''s deafening. With this sound came, in front of the official road, a black line quickly wriggled up.


    Three thousand white horses have emerged.


    Headed by Zhao Yun, he was dressed in armor, white horse and white robe, with dragon gall and silver gun in his hand. At this moment, Zhao Yun''s face was full of fighting spirit. Although it was not his first battle, it was his 3000 white horses'' first fight.


    There are many veterans in Baima Yi.


    These veterans control the recruits, so that the whole white horse justice from the top to the ban.


    "Kill


    Zhao Yun pointed his gun forward.


    With Zhao Yun''s order, three thousand white horses have been dispersed. The strength of the light cavalry is not in keeping pace with each other, but in breaking up and rolling over.


    The mighty war horse, fast sprint.


    Its momentum, such as tiger down the mountain.


    The curtain fell in Zhang Wei''s eyes, and Zhang Wei''s face changed greatly. He looked around. At this time, he couldn''t escape. But Zhang Wei slowed down and let his generals and soldiers rush to the front. His side of Pro guard, also quickly forward, all people to protect Zhang Wei.In a moment, the cavalry had arrived.


    Baima Yicong was like a sharp knife. When he came into contact with Zhang Wei''s army, he directly poked into Zhang Wei''s soldiers and chiseled through Zhang Wei''s formation.


    Zhao Yun turned his eyes and went straight to Zhang Wei''s banner.


    The big flag in the army is the symbol of Zhang Wei.


    After the collapse of the flag, it means that Zhang Wei was killed, but also means that the army has no backbone. Where Zhang Wei''s flag is, the soldiers will gather.


    In the same way, Zhang Wei''s position can be determined by the big flag.


    Zhao Yun galloped his horse and killed with his gun. In his hand, the long Dan bright silver spear was constantly picked out. The tip of the spear flickered and stabbed the generals under Zhang Wei. In a flash, Zhao Yun killed Zhang Wei, less than ten steps away.


    Zhao Yun recognized Zhang Wei at a glance.


    It''s not only that Zhang Wei is wearing conspicuous armor, but also that there are pro guards around him who protect him. Such a move is clearly Zhang Wei, not the rest.


    Zhao Yun killed the horse in the past. The silver gun of dragon gall came out and stabbed a general. In the blink of an eye, the tip of the gun had been drawn from the other side''s chest, bringing out the red blood.


    Zhao Yun doesn''t care about the people who have been killed by him and goes straight to Zhang Wei. His distance from Zhang Wei''s position, in the continuous shortening, from ten steps to eight steps, finally less than four steps away.


    Wang Li, holding a knife, came forward and said, "General Zhang, retreat quickly. I''ll hold him down."


    The sword in his hand cuts down, but the blade falls down. Zhao Yun''s Dragon gall bright silver gun is haunted. The tip of the gun is like a python spitting a message. The cold light flashes away in the air. For a moment, Wang Li only feels a pain in her heart.


    He looked down and saw that his chest had been pierced by the point of the gun.


    "Poof!"


    The tip of the gun was drawn out and blood spattered.


    Wang Li screamed, and her body fell off the horse, without any breath.


    Zhao Yun doesn''t take care of Wang Li. He turns his eyes and finds Zhang Wei''s position. He drives his horse to catch up with him. The distance between the two sides is not far. In a twinkling of an eye, it is not two steps away.


    The Dragon gall silver gun swung in the air and swept out.


    Zhang Wei raised his knife to block it, but the moment when the big gun and the blade collided, there was no stagnation. He directly knocked the sword away, and the barrel of the gun went forward, hitting Zhang Wei''s rib hard.


    "Chaka!"


    The rib breaks, Zhang Wei screams miserably, the face is full of ferocious painful expression.


    Under the impact of the turbulent force, Zhang Wei could no longer sit on the horse. His body flew straight out of the horse and fell to the ground.


    Zhang Wei immediately wants to get up to escape, but without waiting for him to stand up, Zhao Yun has already killed him. The long Dan Liang silver gun stops in front of Zhang Wei''s chest. As long as Zhao Yun makes a little effort, it will be enough to penetrate Zhang Wei''s heart.

 Chapter 703

    "Take it!"


    Zhao Yun gave an order.


    Immediately, some cavalry came forward, bent down to pull up Zhang Wei and put him on the horse. The cavalry followed closely and continued to attack with the rest of the white horse.


    After Zhang Wei''s flag was cut down, the troops who were retreating and fleeing completely broke up.


    The scattered army has no more spirit, and even only knows how to flee in panic.


    Some soldiers under Zhang Wei fled quickly to the left. But when they just fled to their left side, they saw that not far from their left side, there was an army fighting to cut off their retreat.


    The soldiers who fled to the right looked back and saw that they were very happy. They thought that they could retreat quickly without being stopped, so they could not wait to retreat. Only when the soldiers who broke through from the right side walked not far, they saw an army on the right side of the road, cutting off their retreat.


    So much so that everyone was cut off.


    "I surrender!"


    Under Zhang Wei''s command, another soldier surrendered.


    Even Zhang Wei has been taken down. They can''t escape, so they have to surrender. The dark soldiers of Hanzhong army surrendered as quickly as the waves of wheat.


    A group of soldiers surrendered, but not many resisted. After all, there are people coming around. If you insist on resisting, you will be killed.


    After Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Zhang Yan and others converged, they quickly cleaned up the battlefield.


    All prisoners, all in custody.


    The bodies of dead soldiers are burned directly. After all, it''s hard to bury all the corpses on the spot, if it''s too fast.


    Zhang Xiu leads the army to come forward. He meets Zhao Yun and Zhang Wei who is captured.


    At this moment, Zhang Wei''s face turned pale.


    Zhang Wei waist, more blood overflow, that is the waist rib fracture, so that the wound bleeding.


    Zhang Wei was afraid when he saw Zhang Xiu.


    Before meeting with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Wei thought that his army was one of the few elite soldiers in the world and could be invincible. After fighting with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Wei seemed to bump into the iron plate and the army was defeated.


    Now, she is a prisoner of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Wei didn''t even have the courage to resist, and he didn''t have the courage to stick to it. He said directly: "Zhang Taiwei, I surrender. I''m willing to submit to you, just ask you not to kill me."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "if you are willing to cooperate, I will leave you alive."


    The living Zhang Wei is naturally more useful.


    Only in this way can we make use of Zhang Wei.


    After all, Zhang Xiu still didn''t see Yang Yi in this battle. It''s obvious that Yang Yi stayed at xiegu pass. Even though there are not many people at xiegu pass, it is not easy to attack it.


    With Zhang Wei, things are easy to handle.


    Zhang Xiu did not stay, leaving Zhang Jia to clean up the losses and count the prisoners, and then led the army straight to the direction of xiegu pass, ready to take xiegu pass in one go.


    Xiegu pass, on the tower.


    Yang Yi''s face is now full of dignity and worry. Before that, Zhang Wei led his troops to the battle. Although he did not take part in the war and could not command the soldiers, he also arranged his own sentinel to go out of the city to follow and observe, so as to get information.


    He soon knew the news of Zhang Wei''s defeat.


    In this regard, Yang Yi is full of helplessness.


    He knew for a long time that it would be like this, but Zhang weigen didn''t listen to persuasion.


    Who is Zhang Xiu?


    Cao Cao was defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao was besieged by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, both of them, have been famous for a long time. They took part in the war against Huang Jin and Dong Zhuo, and they have made great achievements.


    Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were defeated, let alone Zhang Wei.


    Today, all the troops are defeated.


    Yang Yi is worried about how to resist the army of Zhang Xiu. For now there are less than three hundred men left in the castle. Such a little power is very little.


    Even if xiegu pass is solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the city is tall. But with just over 200 people, it''s almost impossible to defend xiegu pass and keep Zhang Xiu''s army of 60000-70000 away from xiegu pass.


    The school on the tower also got the news. At this time, the school, looking at Yang Yi, arched his hand and said, "general, it was our impulse to misunderstand you."


    "No harm!"


    Yang Yi waved his hand directly.


    The look of the school, but rather guilty.


    During this period of time, Yang Yi pursued the strategy of sticking to the line. No matter how Zhang Xiu''s army drinks and scolds, no one goes to war. Even if the soldiers ask for a fight, they are all suppressed by Yang Yi.


    Just like this, the officers and men in the army were dissatisfied with Yang Yi. That''s why Zhang Weiyi arrived. He didn''t need to fight at all. He deprived Yang Yi of his military power and directly led all the soldiers to fight.Now it turns out that Yang Yi is right.


    "General, general Zhang Wei is defeated, and Zhang Xiu''s army is about to arrive. What should we do now? "


    "I don''t know!"


    Yang Yi looked helpless and raised his hand to rub his face.


    He had only two or three hundred soldiers.


    It''s a delusion to hold the xiegu pass with such strength. In the face of such a situation, Yang Yi is helpless.


    The school said, "why don''t we withdraw. Anyway, this time, it''s not that the general can''t resist, it''s because Zhang Wei left xiegu pass with his own soldiers, which led to the destruction of 50000 elite soldiers. The failure of xiegu pass is not your responsibility, but Zhang Wei''s. Even if we go back to Hanzhong, Shijun will not punish you. "


    Yang Yi big sleeve a brush, said: "you don''t have to say, I have my own consideration."


    The school sighs and says no more.


    With the passage of time a little bit, time is not long, Zhang Xiu led the army, mighty, they arrived outside xiegu pass. Zhang Xiu looked up to the city floor and said, "where is Yang Yi?"


    "Ben will be here!"


    Yang Yi face solemn, way: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want to say?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the 50000 troops led by Zhang Wei were completely destroyed. Now Zhang Wei has become a prisoner of this general. You can''t hold the xiegu pass with only a few troops in your hand. You must turn on the switch and surrender immediately. Otherwise, I will kill you. "


    Yang Yi said: "Zhang Xiu, you attack. It''s impossible for me to surrender. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Immediately, the soldiers escorted Zhang Wei out. Now Zhang Wei has given up everything to save his life. He had a fierce look on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Yi, I will have ordered you to open the xiegu pass and surrender."


    When Yang Yi heard this, he was embarrassed, and his anger at the destruction of the 50000 troops poured into his heart. He put his hands on the wall and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Wei, you still have the face to make me surrender. If you don''t go your own way, how can you destroy Shijun''s 50000 troops. As the younger brother of Shijun, you are a tiger. You''ve lost your face. "


    Brush!


    Zhang Wei''s face changed greatly.


    He did not expect that Yang Yi would refute him so much.


    Zhang Wei gritted his teeth and said, "Yang Yi, I remember what you said now. Hum, even if you want to stick to it. But there are only two or three hundred men in the upper city. You can''t keep them by your strength. "


    Yang Yi said: "even if I can''t keep it, I will be loyal to my teacher."


    Zhang Xiu frowned. He didn''t expect that Yang Yi was so persistent. For a moment, Zhang Xiu appreciated Yang Yi and solemnly said, "Yang Yi, as long as you are subordinated to the general, I promise you the same treatment, or even your promotion and appointment."


    "How can I betray Shijun if my loyal ministers are not the two masters."


    Yang Yi''s face was full of seriousness.


    He didn''t want to surrender at all, because in his heart, he was grateful for Zhang Lu''s kindness.


    But Zhang Xiu chuckled and continued: "you don''t want to betray Zhang Lu, but have you considered it? Zhang Wei is Zhang Lu''s brother. If you don''t surrender, I''ll kill him. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "if you can''t help yourself, can Zhang Lu spare you? impossible. What''s more, if you don''t want to surrender, it means that all the two or three hundred soldiers on the top of the city will be killed. Because of your persistence, let them die with you. Would you like to


    Yang Yi''s face changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, like a knife, poked directly into his heart.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Yang Yi burst out laughing.


    In the laughter, there are sadness, helplessness and determination.


    "I, Yang Yi, was born a man. How can I be a repeater. I am a collateral branch of the Yang family. I am not valued by the Yang family. Only with the support of Meng Shijun can I have what I am today. I dare not repay my kindness. I don''t want to be in a dilemma with my teacher, nor do I want to make my soldiers die. Death is the only way to get rid of it


    "When I die, you can come down!"


    Yang Yi yelled and jumped out of the tower of xiegu pass.

 Chapter 704

    This scene shocked countless people.


    No one thought that it would eventually evolve into such a scene. Yang Yi chose to sacrifice himself for the festival.


    After seeing it, Zhang Xiu said with emotion: "it''s said that the land of Yan and Zhao is full of generous and elegy. But today, the courage of Shu people is also an eye opener to me. Yang Yi is worthy of loyalty and admiration. "


    Zhang Wei heard Zhang Xiu''s words, and his face was rather embarrassed.


    Yang Yi committed suicide in martyrdom.


    But he surrendered. Zhang Xiu''s words seemed to hit him in the face, which made him embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Zhang jaw!"


    "Yes


    Let''s talk back.


    Zhang xiudao said: "gather Yang Yi''s body and bury it in the coffin. Moreover, a martyr''s temple was built near xiegu pass to sacrifice Yang Yi''s deeds. "


    "Here it is


    Open your jaw immediately.


    Zhang Wei''s face changed again and again.


    If we build a martyr''s temple for Yang Yi in xiegu pass, it will be like spreading the story of Zhang Wei''s defeat in xiegu pass through the ages. At that time, Yang Yi was a positive figure, while Zhang Wei was a negative one.


    Zhang Wei can foresee this situation.


    Zhang Wei didn''t want to be like this, and he didn''t want his name to be spit on by countless people of later generations, so he said: "Zhang Taiwei, Yang Yi is of humble origin, so it''s not worth building a martyr''s temple. In particular, other Taiwei''s enemies should not build martyrs'' temples for them. "


    Zhang Xiu heard Zhang Wei''s words, his face a Su, swung up the whip in his hand, and then yanked it down.


    "Pa!"


    A whip was drawn on Zhang Wei''s face.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Zhang Wei''s mouth. The intense pain made him jump and his face even more painful. A slap on the face is painful enough to leave five finger marks. But in fact, compared with the pain of the whip on the face, it is insignificant.


    The horsewhip on the face is not only a red and swollen mark, but also a burning pain, which makes people want to die.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Zhang Wei and scolded: "call again, I''ll kill you."


    Zhang Weili kept silent.


    Now he is scared by Zhang Xiu, and dare not say anything in front of her.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly, "it''s not up to you to tell me what I''m going to do. You have no ability, only know how to boast by virtue of your status. What''s your qualification to say that you are an official. In particular, what qualifications do you have to say that Yang Yi comes from humble origins. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Zhang Wei spoke quickly.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, he did not dare to argue. Even if the inner resentment, also dare not reveal. He is now a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu conflict, the last person to die is him.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and looked at the city upstairs. She said in a loud voice, "open the city gate immediately!"


    The school on the city tower looks different.


    The name of the school is Yue PI, which is the direct family of Yang Yi. It was because he was Yang Yi''s direct family that he was left in the upper story of xiegu pass. He looked up at Yang Yi, who had fallen to the ground. His face changed again and again.


    In his heart, he has the mind to leave xieguanguan directly; in his heart, he has the mind to surrender; in his heart, he has the mind to die with Yang Yi.


    All kinds of emotions come to mind.


    In his heart, Yue PI was faced with a choice. Especially in the face of life and death, there is great terror. It''s not easy to make a real choice. But when he thought of all the things in xiegu pass, the policy that he was angry with Yang Yi first, and then the death of Yang Yi, he finally made a decision.


    Yue PI turned to look at more than 200 soldiers and solemnly said, "General Yang said that he would not interfere with us and let us make our choice. It''s just that I''ve been ungrateful to General Yang and have no courage to surrender. I''ll go with General Yang. Help yourself. "


    With that, Yue PI jumped out again.


    Nearly five or six feet high, it is impossible to escape falling. When Yue PI didn''t jump out, he made various choices in his heart, but when he jumped out of xiegu pass, he was smiling.


    Although he died, he should follow general Yang.


    Before he died, he was in charge of General Yang.


    After his death, he will live up to General Yang.


    Plop!


    With a dull sound, Yue Pi''s body landed on the ground, and then he lost his breath. There was more blood flowing from Yue Pi''s mouth. This scene shocked Zhang Xiu and others.


    After Yue PI jumped, the soldiers jumped one after another.


    "Plop! Plop


    More and more soldiers jump from the tower of the checkpoint, and the sound of impact is constantly ringing on the ground. These soldiers, who are usually treated by Yang Yi''s kindness and treated by Yang Yi as their sons, never let Yang Yi down.


    More than 200 soldiers died in martyrdom.


    Hoo!!


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she was filled with emotion.


    A group of people all jumped off the tower to die for the festival, such a scene, shocking. He immediately arranged for Zhang Yan to arrange people to collect all the corpses and enter Yang Yi''s ancestral hall. He also named the ancestral hall Yang''s martyr''s temple directly.Such a move, let Zhang Wei helpless. Zhang Wei only felt that such a move was like hitting him in the face, but he was helpless.


    Zhang Xiu arranges all this and orders Zhang Yan to arrange the soldiers to climb up the xiegu pass and open the door. Soon, with a creak, the gate of xiegu pass was opened, and the army entered and directly controlled xiegu pass.


    The army was temporarily stationed.


    Next, we need to rectify the soldiers and count the losses.


    In the evening, all the corpses along the road gathered up and were already burned by a big fire. All the prisoners were taken into custody and kept alone.


    Zhang Ya, as the chief of the generals, came to the city tower, saw Zhang Xiu in the room, and reported the results of the battle.


    In this battle, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers lost more than 4000 people.


    More than 20000 soldiers were decapitated.


    In addition, more than 20000 soldiers have been captured, and thousands of others have fled to the surrounding areas and are still missing.


    Zhang Xiu was very satisfied with the results of the war.


    Thanks to Zhang Wei''s own troops, Zhang Xiu could easily win xiegu pass. If we attack xiegu pass by force, even if we lose 20000 or 30000 troops, we may not be able to capture it.


    Especially for people like Yang Yi, it is even more difficult to capture xiegu pass.


    The army took a temporary rest. The next morning, the army set out to go south. This time, Zhang Xiu left 1000 soldiers at xiegu pass, and the rest of the army went south with Zhang Xiu.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s forces suffered a slight loss, today''s forces are at least more than 50000. It''s easy to break Nanzheng County.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army went south, though it was slow to pass through the valley, the terrain was narrow after all. But after all, Zhang Xiu''s army passed through xiegu road and entered Hanzhong.


    Going out of xiegu road means that the whole Hanzhong is completely exposed to Zhang Xiu.


    And the news spread rapidly, reached Nanzheng County.

 Chapter 705

    Zhang Lu is busy in his study, looking through his collection of Taoist classics and looking for various materials. Now this period of time is the most joyful one for Zhang Lu.


    Because of Zuo Ci''s presence, Zhang Lu had a wide understanding of Taoist classics and many Taoist classics.


    This is an opportunity for Zhang Lu.


    The conversation with Zuo CI greatly enriched Zhang Lu''s insight, making Zhang Lu constantly improve the doctrine of wudoumi Dao and the system of wudoumi Dao more perfect.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    "Who is it?"


    Hearing the knock, Zhang Lu instinctively frowned and didn''t want to be disturbed. Now, he doesn''t see anyone except Zuo CI. He doesn''t want to see anyone.


    "Brother, it''s me!"


    Outside the study, there was a clear sound.


    After hearing this, Zhang Lu continued to read the classics and said, "come in!"


    With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a young man in his early twenties strode in.


    The young man''s name is Zhang Han, the third younger brother of Zhang Lu. He was born handsome and elegant. During his stay in Nanzheng, he also participated in government affairs, mainly assisting Yan Pu in handling affairs.


    But most of the time, Zhang''s reputation is not obvious. After all, Zhang Wei was in charge of the army, and the government affairs were mainly decided by Yan Pu and Yang Song. Zhang Qian was mainly assisting Yan Pu, so even if Zhang Qian participated in politics, it was not the most important core.


    After all, Zhang is still young.


    There was an eager look on Zhang''s face. As soon as he saw Zhang Lu, he said, "brother, what time is it. You still have the mind to look up the classics and indulge in discussing the Tao. "


    Zhang Lu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Qian''s face was dignified, and he said in a deep voice: "just got the news, Zhang Xiu broke the xiegu pass and has gone down from xiegu road to Hanzhong."


    Zhang Lu''s face changed greatly.


    The ancient books in his hand fell to the ground with a plop.


    At this moment, Lu was flustered? There is Yang Yi stationed in xiegu pass. I have strictly ordered Yang Yi not to go out of the pass. In addition, your second brother is also in charge. The xiegu pass has a total of 50000 elite soldiers, which should be as solid as gold. "


    "The bad thing is the second brother."


    Zhang felt ashamed and angry, and said: "Yang Yi is good at xiegu pass, but he can''t keep it. There''s no way for Zhang Xiu to take xiegu pass. But as soon as the second brother arrived at xiegu pass, he seized Yang Yi''s military power, and then went out to attack Zhang Xiu, so that he was defeated and captured, and became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. "


    After a pause, Zhang Qian continued: "when Zhang Xiu led the army to xiegu pass, Yang Yi''s troops were no more than 200 and could not resist. Finally, Yang Yi gave up his life to jump off xiegu pass and die for the festival. In addition, more than 200 soldiers around Yang Yi were martyred without exception. Yang Yi and others died a heroic death. "


    Boom!!


    When Zhang Lu heard this, he seemed to have thunder in his head.


    This is beyond his expectation. He never thought that Zhang Wei was defeated and captured, while Yang Yi committed suicide.


    "Yang Yi, why are you so stupid?"


    Zhang Lu felt sorry in his heart and said: "even if he is unwilling to surrender, he thinks he can''t stop Zhang Xiu. He can withdraw from xiegu pass and Nanzheng. At the beginning, Yang Yi was just an ordinary soldier in the army. I fell in love with him at a glance and promoted him to be a general. I didn''t expect that he was so strong. Alas... "


    In a hurry, Zhang said, "brother, don''t feel sorry. Now the situation is critical. What should we do? "


    Zhang Lu said: "today''s situation, I''m afraid it can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s soldiers. If we have a valley, we can resist it. But without the xiegu pass, Zhang Xiu''s military front is irresistible. "


    Zhang Han said, "why don''t you ask Master Yan and listen to him?"


    He admired Yan Pu.


    But at that time, Yan Pu angered Zhang Lu. Even if Zhang was ashamed, it was not convenient to say anything for Yan Pu. He could only arrange the people in the cell to serve Yan Pu and not neglect him.


    As soon as Zhang Lu heard Zhang''s words, he immediately nodded and said, "not bad, not bad. Now, we can only go to see military adviser Yan and see what he says. "


    Immediately, Zhang Lu took Zhang Qian and left the prefect''s house to go to the prison.


    In the innermost part of the cell is the place where Yan Pu is detained. Today''s Yanpu looks solemn, but he is worried. After all, after Zhang Wei sent troops, Zhang Xiu had a chance to take advantage of it.


    But even if Yan Pu worried, it didn''t help. He couldn''t influence Zhang Lu.


    Step on it! Step on it!


    When the sound of walking came, Yan Pu looked up and saw the people coming with the help of the torch burning in the cell.


    It''s Zhang Lu and Zhang Qian.


    The cell was dark and dark. However, Yan Pu''s eyes were very good. After seeing Zhang Lu clearly, he especially saw the stern look on Zhang Lu''s face, and his heart thumped.


    Not good!


    There must be something wrong with xiegu pass.


    If xiegu pass is safe, Zhang Lu can''t come to see him. Only when xiegu is closed can Zhang Lu come. What''s more, behind Zhang Lu, there is Zhang Qian. It must be a big event in xiegu.Not long after, Zhang Lu came to the door of the cell and asked someone to open the door. He went directly into the cell and saw Yan Pu. He said, "commander, just got the news of xiegu pass, Zhang Wei''s army was destroyed and captured. The whole xiegu pass has fallen. Zhang Xiu''s army has passed through xiegu road and entered Hanzhong. "


    Plop!


    Yan Pu, standing, slumped on the ground, sighed, "it''s over, it''s over!"


    Zhang Lu said: "military division, the situation is quite urgent now. Do you have any strategies to solve it?"


    At this moment, Zhang Lu placed his hope on Yan Pu. Although he didn''t have any idea of dominating the world, at least Zhang Lu didn''t want to rely on others.


    When he was a local emperor in Hanzhong, his life was very comfortable.


    Yan Pu put his hand on his knee, stood up and sighed: "Shijun, that day, if you listen to your humble words, kill Zuo Ci and send someone to recover Zhang Wei overnight, it would not be so."


    Zhang felt ashamed to see this, and quickly broke away from the topic, saying: "military strategist, it''s no use complaining about the past now. Tell me, there''s a way to crack it. "


    "Surrender


    Yan Pu shook his head and said: "only surrender, because Zhang Wei is in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Once Zhang Xiu takes out Zhang Wei, can Shijun ignore Zhang Wei''s life? When Shijun went north to Hanzhong, his mother and fourth brother were killed in Chengdu. Now, Shijun, don''t you care about Zhang Wei? "


    Zhang Lu''s face changed again and again.


    Yes!


    Do you want to give up another brother?


    At this moment, Zhang Lu, trapped in a difficult choice, did not know what to do.


    Yan Pu continued: "of course, Shijun can fight Zhang Xiu regardless of Zhang Wei''s life. After all, Shijun had high prestige in Hanzhong. As long as Shijun calls on the people of Hanzhong to resist in the name of wudoumi Dao, there must be countless people willing to resist with Shijun. How to choose depends on Shijun''s will. "


    When Zhang felt ashamed, his face changed again and again. He could not make him ignore Zhang Wei''s life. Zhang was unable to make a choice. He had to look at Zhang Lu and wait for Zhang Lu to make a decision.


    Zhang Lu frowned deeply.


    On the one hand, it is Zhang Wei''s life; on the other hand, it is Hanzhong''s foundation, or wudoumi Dao''s foundation. It is not easy for him to make a choice immediately.


    Zhang Lu''s heart is very tangled.

 Chapter 706

    After Yan Pu finished, he didn''t say much. To resist, and how to resist, he has told Zhang Lu. It is easier to surrender to Zhang Xiu. In fact, he was quite disappointed with Zhang Lu.


    If everything in Hanzhong is planned and arranged according to his plan, even if Zhang Xiu''s troops are powerful, he may not be able to enter Hanzhong. He must stop outside xiegu pass.


    After all, there is Yang Yi in xiegu pass, which is hard for Zhang Xiu to conquer.


    However, Zhang Lu believed that Zuo CI had no problem, let alone stopped Zhang Wei, which led to the change of the situation.


    Zhang Lu is responsible for all this.


    No wonder others.


    Zhang Lu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked, "military adviser, what if I surrender?"


    Yan Pu sighed: "if you want to surrender, then Shijun only needs to contact Zuo Ci, and naturally you can achieve the task. But being a prisoner, Shijun is not a free man. "


    At this point, Yan Pu still couldn''t help saying: "after Shijun surrendered, the whole family became the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, and was slaughtered by Zhang Xiu. Shijun fight to the end, then Shijun and Shizi can make their own decisions. At least Zhang''s veins are still preserved. "


    His original heart, has no more words.


    After all, it was Zhang Lu''s counselor.


    After all, he was deeply appreciated by Zhang Lu.


    So Mingming reminded himself in his heart that he would not speak more, but when the words came to his mouth, he still couldn''t help persuading him and expressed his attitude.


    In his heart, Yan Pu hoped that Zhang Lu would fight to the death.


    Even if Zhang Xiu went south, Hanzhong was not without the strength of the first World War. After all, Hanzhong is the place of the Communist Party of China, and has great control over the people. Countless people in Hanzhong believe in religion, and they are all men of five Dou rice. As long as Zhang Lu gives an order, countless people will support Zhang Lu and will be willing to fight with him.


    If Zhang Lu surrendered, the people would surrender.


    There''s no need to fight.


    When Zhang Lu heard Yan Pu''s words, his face changed again and again. His original heart, has been vaguely shaken, ready to surrender. But now, after listening to Yan Pu''s words, his swaying heart became firm again.


    "That''s all. Let''s fight it!"


    Zhang Lu gritted his teeth.


    Zhang Qian stood aside. As a man who followed Yan Pu to deal with government affairs, he had some insight. Now, after Zhang Lu made the decision, Zhang shamed and said: "since elder brother has made the decision, we will fight with Zhang Xiu. Let''s press the button for the second brother''s business. If we don''t surrender, the second brother will be safe. "


    At this point, I can only comfort myself like this.


    Zhang Lu folded his hands and bowed to Yan Pu. He solemnly said, "I''m so neglectful of my military adviser. Please forgive me. Now I want to fight with Zhang Xiu. Please help me. "


    Yan Pu flashed a light in his eyes and said, "Shijun, if you want me to fight, you have to promise me a condition."


    "What are the conditions?" Zhang Lu asked


    There was a voice in Yanpu''s voice: "Shijun immediately arranged for people to take Zuo Ci and show him to the public. Only in this way can we show the determination of Shijun and Zhang Xiu to fight to the death. "


    "No way!"


    When Zhang Lu heard this, he shook his head and answered.


    He would never let him kill such a noble man as Zuo CI. What''s more, these days, Zuo CI gave him great help in Daoism, which made him open up a lot of things he didn''t understand.


    He is very grateful to Zuo CI.


    Yan Pu advised: "Lord, Zuo CI must be Zhang Xiu''s spy. When he came to Nanzheng, he had a plan. You left Zuo CI in vain to compete with Zhang Xiu. That''s a daydream. "


    At this time, Zhang Shichao shook his head and asked Yan Pu not to talk. As Zhang Lu''s younger brother, Zhang Qian quite understands Zhang Lu''s temperament. Zhang Lu is quite easygoing, but when it comes to wudoumi Dao and Taoist classics, Zhang Lu becomes extremely stubborn and almost unable to persuade.


    Yan Pu takes Zuo Ci to threaten Zhang Lu, which is tantamount to openly opposing Zhang Lu.


    This is not knowingly done.


    Yan Pu saw Zhang Qian''s sign, but he didn''t give in. If Yan Pu wants to fight Zhang Xiu, he must first get rid of Zuo Ci, otherwise he will not succeed.


    If you don''t kill Zuo Ci, you might as well surrender.


    Yan Pu''s face was solemn, and he said again, "Shijun, believe me. If you want to fight with Zhang Xiu, please believe me. In this war, to compete with Zhang Xiu, we must go all out and put an end to all internal troubles. Zuo CI is internal trouble. "


    "No more!"


    Zhang Lu''s big sleeve flicked and said: "brother Zuo Dao is a man of great virtue. During his time in Nanzheng, he did not mention anything about war. He and I did not mention political affairs. We just talked about Tao, and only expounded our respective ways. Military strategist, with such a mind, you can''t help but use the heart of a villain to measure the belly of a gentleman. "


    After a pause, Zhang Lu said again, "I''ll ask you a question. Do you really want to help me again?"


    "No!"


    Yan Pu replied without hesitation: "Shijun, you want to have a good relationship with Zuo Ci, and you want to compete with Zhang Xiu. In this world, how can there be so many things with the best of both worlds. Shijun, people are dangerous and unpredictable. ""You stay in the cell!"


    Zhang Lu shook his hand and left directly.


    After Zhang Lu left, Zhang Qian was not in a hurry to leave, persuading: "military strategist, why? Elder brother personally came to invite you out of the mountain, presided over the overall situation of confrontation with Zhang Xiu, and has given you a step down. "


    "Why do you make him angry again?"


    "It''s been some years since you followed my elder brother. Don''t you know big brother''s character? In his whole life, he has been sincere in wudoumi Taoism, and he prefers to talk with Taoist experts. "


    Zhang Han said: "you let elder brother kill Zuo CI. Where is his face? In the future, he still has the face to face the rest of you Dao Gao Shi. "


    Yan Pu said: "to resist Zhang Xiu, you must first kill Zuo CI. Otherwise, how to resist? I''m sorry, young master. Now that it''s over, don''t resist any more. When you go back, persuade Shijun to surrender. "


    "Alas..."


    With a sigh, Zhang turned and left.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Yan Pu grabbed the beam of the cell with both hands, and suddenly burst out laughing.


    Laughter, is lonely.


    Laughter, full of helplessness.


    "Poor night empty front seat, don''t ask common people, ask ghosts and gods!"


    "The ancients did not deceive me!"


    "Ghosts and gods, what''s the use of ghosts and gods?"


    Yan Pu tried to roar and roar. The whole sound of the mud gradually subsided, and then he lost his strength.


    He just collapsed in his cell.


    At this moment, Yan Pu saw Zhang Lu clearly. It is impossible for Zhang Lu and Zhang Xiu to fight.


    How can a person who always put the five Dou rice way, the skill of ghosts and gods, and the ethereal search for immortals in the first place be the prefect of a county? How can we stand in troubled times.


    "Ridiculous, pathetic!"


    Yan Pu lay on the ground, looking at the dark roof of the cell, shaking his head and laughing. He originally thought that Zhang Lu was pretty good, but what happened today completely chilled his heart.


    No more hope.

 Chapter 707

    Zhang Lu''s front foot returned to the study, and Zhang Qian''s back foot followed him. Zhang felt sorry for Yan Pu''s stubbornness in his heart, but now without Yan Pu, Zhang also felt that he had no bottom in his heart.


    Yan Pu is a wise man.


    With Yan Pu, Zhang can rest assured completely. Because in Zhang''s heart, Yan Pu was countless times more powerful than Yang Song.


    "What shall we do now, brother?" Zhang said


    "Fight


    Zhang Lu gritted his teeth and said, "I don''t believe it. I can''t fight Zhang Xiu without Yan Pu. Zhang Xiu has come all the way. We are waiting for Zhang Xiu in Nanzheng County. We will fight against Zhang Xiu in Nanzheng County. "


    "Don''t you go out of the city for the first battle?" Zhang asked


    "No!"


    Zhang Lu shook his head directly.


    Zhang Lu once again said: "third brother, you will send orders to the county officials in Hanzhong. Along the way, you don''t have to resist Zhang Xiu. Let all the people hide. We won''t fight Zhang Xiu head-on."


    "After Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Nanzheng, we used Nanzheng County to defend."


    "Zhang Xiu''s enemies are not one or two. We stay in Nanzheng County. With the strength of Nanzheng County, as long as we wait for a year and a half, Zhang Xiu will naturally retreat. "


    Zhang Lu said: "you are in charge of this matter. Try your best to shrink your strength and take back the grain, equipment and others to the city."


    "I see!"


    Zhang was so ashamed that he turned and left to arrange.


    Zhang Lu looked at Zhang Qian''s back, at the Taoist classics in his study, and at some materials just sorted out on the desk, but he was upset and didn''t have the heart to study the classics.


    "Yanpu, even without your help, I can keep it."


    "I''ll prove it to you."


    Zhang Lu murmured to himself, he did not believe that without Yan Pu, he would not have fought.


    The news about the affairs of the prefect''s office soon spread out. When Pang Tong learned that Zhang Lu was going to visit the prison and was ready to take Yan Pu out, he was rejected by Yan Pu. Even Yan Pu asked Zhang Lu to kill Zuo CI. Zhang Lu didn''t want to, and eventually the two sides broke up.


    In this regard, Pang Tong is happy to see its success.


    Yan Pu''s eyes are very fierce. If Yan Pu really came out to preside over the government affairs, all things in Hanzhong would certainly work, and Zhang Lu would resist fiercely at that time.


    Without Yan Pu, it would be much easier to defeat Zhang Lu.


    This is an opportunity.


    Pang Tong was surprised to learn that Zhang Lu was going to stick to Nanzheng County. He didn''t expect that Zhang Lu and Yan Pu had such plans after their break. You know, Zhang Wei was captured alive by Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Lu had to fight again.


    But it''s not hard.


    After some consideration, Pang Tong didn''t stay in his house. He immediately took a carriage and left for Yang Song''s residence. When he came to Yang Song''s house, Yang Song complained: "Pang Shangshu is going to visit, why didn''t he arrange for a notice in advance. Now the city is under martial law. You are sensitive. Don''t walk around. Be careful. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "isn''t there master Yang''s book? With master Yang in, what am I worried about? "


    Yang Song was quite proud and said, "Pang Shangshu has been praised falsely."


    As soon as the words changed, Yang Song said, "Pang Shangshu is here, but what''s important?"


    Pang Tong said: "do you know Zhang Lu''s latest action


    "I know!"


    Yang Song nodded and said, "now Zhang Taiwei''s army breaks through xiegu road and goes south to Hanzhong. In order to resist the Taiwei, Shijun has ordered people everywhere to hide, and has even withdrawn all the troops to Nanzheng. In addition, Shijun also prepared sufficient food, armor and weapons to fight against Zhang Taiwei for a long time. "


    Pang Tong asked, "do you think Zhang Lu can resist the Lord''s attack?"


    "Not yet known!"


    Yang Song smiles and says an ambiguous answer.


    Pang Tong said: "master Yang is deceiving himself. If Zhang Lu can resist the Lord''s army, he won''t give up the rest of Hanzhong and try his best to prepare for the defense of Nanzheng."


    "I understand Zhang Lu''s mind. He did so in order to stick to it and prepare to stay in Nanzheng for a year and a half. At that time, the rest of the war in Guanzhong will force the Lord to withdraw. "


    Pang Tong said: "but in Nanzheng''s small area, where can we resist the Lord''s soldiers. Mr. Yang, what do you think? "


    "Maybe," Yang said


    Pang Tong said: "it''s not possible. It must be so. In front of the Lord, Zhang Lu''s army is not enough for fear. The huge Nanzheng County is even more difficult to attack. This time I''m here, I''m going to send master Yang a fortune. "


    When Yang Song heard this, his eyes narrowed.


    At this moment, Yang Song''s heart, also some heart. Although Yang Song is greedy, in fact, he has considerable ability and vision.


    Otherwise, he would not be Zhang Lu''s master.


    Yang Song said, "Pang Shangshu is coming. What wealth are you going to give me?"


    Pang Tong said: "when the Lord''s army arrives, Yang can take the opportunity to open the gate to welcome him into the city. In this way, how can the Lord not value master Yang''s bookYang Song frowned and said, "it''s not easy."


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "it''s man-made."


    After a pause, Pang Tong continued: "in today''s situation, if master Yang doesn''t do it. Maybe the rest of us will take action. Because I have dealt with Yang Zhubo, I know that Yang Zhubo is a truster, who means what he says and can do what he says. That''s why I''m willing to go to master Yang. If not, I''ll go straight to someone else. "


    Yang songdun silence down, the heart in weighing the pros and cons.


    Pang Tong continued: "speaking of it, master Yang is under Zhang Lu''s command, and Yan Pu is in front of him. As long as Yanpu is here, you will never get the most power. "


    "In addition, there is Zhang Wei in the leadership, and you can''t get in touch with the military power."


    "Master Yang, if you were not born in the Yang family, I''m afraid you would be kicked out. You are smart, but Zhang Lu always holds you back and makes you unable to show your ambition. "


    Pang Tong said: "in such a situation, is master Yang really willing?"


    Yang Song''s face changed again and again.


    After half a sound, Yang Song said in a deep voice, "I''ve done this step. When the time comes, what official position can Zhang Taiwei grant me?"


    Pang Tong thought about it in his heart.


    He knows Yang Song''s character. Such a person must not be the prefect of a county. Otherwise, Yang song would harm thousands of people in Hanzhong.


    However, he has to appease Yang Song and let him do things for Zhang Xiu.


    Pang Tong soon had an idea and said, "master Yang, the only thing I can be sure of is that you open the gate of the city and welcome the Lord''s army into the city. Then, you will certainly get countless money."


    "Before that, master Yang urged Zhang Wei to send troops. You have seen his sincerity. If it is completed this time, it must be several times as much as before. "


    "As for the position, I can''t guarantee it."


    "After all, when it comes to the arrangement of official positions, the Lord has his own decision. I can''t agree."


    Pang Tong said: "of course, I can perfunctorily promise you. But I have some friendship with master Yang, so I don''t want to cheat him. "


    In this case, let Yang Song agree.


    Yang Song took a deep breath and solemnly said, "OK, I agree to surrender to Zhang Taiwei. When the army of Taiwei Zhang arrives, I will open the gate to welcome Taiwei Zhang into the city. I will contact Pang Shangshu for specific arrangements. "


    "No problem!"


    Pang Tong''s face showed a bright smile.


    It''s done.


    With the help of Yang Song, it is easy to win Nanzheng County.

 Chapter 708

    Zhang Xiu led the troops South and made a quick journey. All the places along the way are empty. Because people all over the country have left ahead of time to avoid meeting Zhang Xiu''s army.


    In this regard, Zhang Xiu clearly is Zhang Lu''s stratagem. This is a deliberate effort to keep the wall clean and leave no food or goods to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    The army is still on its way.


    Zhang Xiu sent someone to bring Zhang Wei to the rest of the army. Looking at Zhang Wei, she said faintly, "Zhang Wei, now Zhang Lujian has a clear wall. It seems that she is ready to fight with my official to the end. You say, should you leave your life? "


    When Zhang Weideng got down on his knees, he begged for mercy and said, "Taiwei, Zhang Wei is willing to surrender. Zhang Wei is already a member of Taiwei, and he vowed to be loyal to Taiwei. What does it have to do with me if my brother wants to resist? "


    He was the one who surrendered. Unexpectedly, he was threatened.


    Now his ribs are still painful.


    At that time, Zhao Yun broke a few ribs, although it has been boned, but his injury can not be recovered overnight. It is said that after a hundred days of injury, it is impossible for him to recover completely in a few months.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was not moved, Zhang Wei said again, "Tai Wei, I''m willing to persuade my brother. Come and persuade me to surrender. Elder brother loves me very much. Although he is leading the army to resist now, when Taiwei''s army arrives in Nanzheng, he will definitely give up resistance and no longer be the enemy of Taiwei. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will wait and see!"


    The reason to intimidate Zhang Wei is to make him obedient.


    At this time, Wang Yue came over.


    Wang Yue took out the letter and handed it to Zhang Xiu. He bowed and said, "my Lord, there is an urgent report from Nanzheng."


    After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu opened the envelope to browse quickly. When he finished reading it, a smile appeared on his face. The letter was sent by Pang Tong, informing him of Pang Tong''s progress and Yan Pu''s break with Zhang Lu again.


    Zhang Xiu is eager for Zhang Lu not to use Yan Pu. All kinds of signs show that if Yan Pu presides over the overall situation of Hanzhong, it will be a great stumbling block for Zhang Xiu, which will increase the difficulty for Zhang Xiu to win Hanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu, in particular, did not expect Pang Tong to persuade Yang Song to surrender and let him open the gate. This is beneficial to Zhang Xiu without any harm. As long as you enter Nanzheng City, Zhang Xiu''s army can destroy Zhang Lu''s army.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s confidence.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, some soldiers came forward and took Zhang Wei back.


    After a little rest, the army went on its way again.


    All the way down the south, there was no smoke for ten miles, and there was no one to resist along the way. Zhang Xiu didn''t care about it. The army continued to drive. In early May, she came to Nanzheng County.


    In Nanzheng, there are still few people. Many of the people, either at home or in the mountains, are hiding from Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    As a result, Zhang Xiu came to Nanzheng smoothly.


    The army arrived outside Nanzheng city and stationed at the north gate outside the city.


    The army was arrayed, and Zhang Xiu rode forward.


    He looked up at the city of Nanzheng, the capital of Hanzhong, which was very tall and strong. Outside the city, there is a moat to protect the safety of Nanzheng.


    The existence of the moat is an obstacle to the army''s attack. Now in early May, it has entered summer, with more rain, and the flow of the moat is rushing.


    Zhang Xiu said: "my official Zhang Xiu, where is Zhang Lu?"


    "I am Zhang Lu!"


    Zhang Lu is also on the tower, his eyes fall on Zhang Xiu, especially surprised. Although Zhang Lu heard of Zhang Xiu''s deeds and knew that Zhang Xiu was young, he could see that Zhang Xiu''s face was white and handsome, which was even smaller than his third younger brother.


    Such people have monopolized the three states.


    Such a person is unparalleled.


    Thinking of this, Zhang Lu''s heart is full of emotion, worthy of Zhang Xiu. At this age, he was already a Taiwei of the current Dynasty. But these thoughts are fleeting.


    Zhang Lu''s face was cold and solemn, and there was a voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, why do you want to invade Hanzhong for no reason?"


    "No reason to invade?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered and retorted: "Zhang Lu, do you have a bad memory, or do you have a bad memory. If I remember well, I didn''t provoke you when I was in Guanzhong. "


    "It was you, Zhang Lu, who sent troops north to invade Chencang and attack Guanzhong."


    "You are the first to start the dispute."


    "Now, you''re saying that I''m really a good judge when I invade for no reason."


    Zhang xiudao said: "people say that the five Dou rice way of Zhang Lu Xinfeng is a place that stresses faithfulness and makes people sincere. Now it seems that even you, the master of wudoumi Dao, are full of lies. It can be seen that wudoumi Dao is a place to hide filth. "


    "Enough!"


    When Zhang Lu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his face suddenly became gloomy.


    It''s his hard work.


    There is no room for defilement.


    Zhang Lu clenched his fist and said forcefully: "no matter what, you can find a reason for Zhang Xiu to attack Hanzhong. Zhang Xiu, your troops are at the foot of the city and you want to attack. Just attack. I''d like to see if it''s your Zhang Xiu''s powerful troops or the strong wall of Nanzheng city. ""No hurry, no hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face looked calm and said: "the attack will certainly attack, but I''m not in a hurry for a while. Come on, come on, I have a person to introduce to you. "


    As soon as he waved, a soldier came out with Zhang Wei.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang Wei, it''s your turn to talk."


    Along the way, Zhang Wei was knocked by Zhang Xiu from time to time, and he was already in awe of Zhang Xiu. He does not dare to provoke Zhang Xiu, as long as it is arranged by Zhang Xiu, he does not hesitate to listen.


    So standing in front of the battle, Zhang Wei immediately said, "brother, I''m Zhang Wei!"


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhang Lu scolded angrily.


    Because Zhang Wei intervened in xiegu pass''s war without authorization, Yang Yi and more than 200 soldiers died; because Zhang Wei intervened in xiegu pass''s war without authorization, xiegu pass fell; because Zhang Wei intervened in xiegu pass without authorization, Hanzhong fell into such a situation, and Zhang Xiu beat him to the door.


    All this is caused by Zhang Wei.


    Zhang Lu was very angry. When he saw Zhang Wei, he scolded: "you son of a bitch, as a member of my family, you can''t even compare with Yang Yi. Yang Yi is extremely loyal, and would rather die than surrender. But you just surrender to Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Wei said: "big brother, Taiwei is a powerful soldier. No one is Taiwei''s opponent. Brother, although you are in Nanzheng. But for now, it''s just temporary. In front of Taiwei, elder brother can''t defend Nanzheng. It''s better to surrender to the Taiwei and reduce the losses than to stick to it and waste the lives of the soldiers. "


    After a pause, Zhang Wei continued: "brother, if you continue to resist, my life will not be protected. Our four brothers are all from the same mother. The fourth brother died in Liu Zhang''s hands, and so did his mother. Now, there are only three brothers left. Does the elder brother want to look at me and be killed by Taiwei? "


    After that, Zhang Wei knelt down directly.


    He had a runny nose, a tear, and a sad look.


    After Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Wei''s appearance, she praised him in her heart. It takes Zhang Wei to move his feelings so as to have a chance to move Zhang Lu. If Zhang Wei can move Zhang Lu and make Zhang Lu surrender, it doesn''t need Yang Song to open the gate.


    Next, let''s see how Zhang Lu does it?


    Zhang Lu felt a little softhearted when he heard Zhang Wei''s words, but he remembered Yan Pu''s words vividly, which made Zhang Lu reluctant to surrender. He gritted his teeth and said, "son of a bitch, it''s your own sin that leads to being captured. After Zhang Xiu kills you, I will take revenge for you. You make me surrender. It''s stupid. "


    After that, Zhang Lu said: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill Zhang Wei, do it. I will never frown, Zhang Lu. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed.


    What a pity!


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "Zhang Wei, have you seen Zhang Lu''s attitude?"


    Zhang Wei was so scared that he said: "Taiwei, I''m willing to surrender. If I have already surrendered, please don''t kill me."


    "Don''t worry, I won''t kill you!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile. He looked up at Zhang Lu and said in a loud voice, "this is the heart. It can''t stand the test. Zhang Lu, don''t worry. Zhang Wei will be fine. I don''t want to kill him. "


    Zhang Lu''s face changed greatly.


    It''s a trick!


    Zhang Xiu''s calculation again.


    In other words, no matter how he answers, he will be calculated by Zhang Xiu. Because if he agreed to Zhang Wei''s request, he would have to surrender to Zhang Xiu and could not keep Nanzheng.


    If you don''t agree to Zhang Wei''s request, you will offend him. Just because Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill Zhang Wei, it is tantamount to showing Zhang Wei the ruthlessness of his elder brother. This is a estrangement.

 Chapter 709

    Zhang Lu is biting a tooth, hate teeth itch of, once again way: "Zhang Xiu, talk less nonsense.". If you want to attack, attack on a large scale. If you want to attack the city, I''ll take over Zhang Lu. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s a pity that I don''t plan to fight for the time being. Don''t worry. It''s easy to get angry."


    Zhang Lu frowned.


    He didn''t know Zhang Xiu''s intention, especially without Yan Pu, and no one analyzed it. Zhang Lu turned to Yang Song and asked, "master Yang, what do you think Zhang Xiu''s intention is?"


    Yang Song said: "Shijun, ask Zhang Xiu. What''s Zhang Xiu going to do? "


    Zhang Lu heard the corner of his mouth twitch, asked Zhang Xiu, that Zhang Xiu will be like the truth?


    Yang Song is far worse than Yan Pu.


    But Zhang Lu had no other choice, said: "Zhang Xiu, if you don''t attack Nanzheng, I''ll see when you can encircle it? I stick to Nanzheng and want food with food, weapons with weapons and soldiers with sufficient strength. Under such a premise, it is as easy as a palm to hold Nanzheng. "


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said slowly: "no matter, if you want to stick to Nanzheng, you should stick to it. After our officers have surrounded Nanzheng, they will not attack Nanzheng County for the time being. "


    "I can tell you what I''m going to do next."


    "Next, I will capture all the counties in Hanzhong county one by one, and control all the counties in Hanzhong County in my hands. In the end, Nanzheng, the capital of Hanzhong, became a lonely city. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "under such circumstances, can you still be in Nanzheng?"


    "Even if you don''t have your own official, it''s easy to wipe out Zhang Lu. In particular, you have to be clear that the morale of the army will be exhausted three times with one go. "


    "With the passage of time, the morale of your soldiers will drop rapidly. In the end, there will be no more morale, and the soldiers will even mutiny. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "of course, you can also take the initiative to fight and lead the army out of the city to fight with me."


    "No way!"


    Zhang Lu replied flatly, looking very determined.


    After a pause, Zhang Lu said, "I won''t fight. Moreover, all the people in Hanzhong are believers of wudoumi. It''s the same with the soldiers in the city. I have no shortage of their food and clothing, and the soldiers will do their best. The rest of the county people, they believe in wudoumi Road, will not cooperate with you


    When he said this, Zhang Lu seemed very confident.


    He believed in the power of his own five Dou Mi Dao.


    This is the cohesion of wudoumi Dao.


    Zhang Xiu was silent for a long time before she continued: "what you Zhang Lu said is the funniest joke I have ever heard. As an official in charge, you can''t even see through this matter. People like you, that''s how it is. If you can be the governor of Hanzhong, you will be a hero of the times. In fact, your ability alone is not enough to be a prefect. "


    "Ridiculous


    Zhang Lu has a big sleeve.


    He is very confident in his cohesion.


    This is his strength.


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed disdain and continued: "do you know why people believe in wudoumi? It''s not because of how powerful your wudoumi doctrine is; it''s not because of how attractive your wudoumi doctrine is; it''s not because of your wudoumi doctrine''s magical skills. "


    "In fact, the reason is very simple, because they believe in wudoumi, they can get your care, and they can have enough to eat. That''s all."


    "In the face of life and death, some people will choose to be loyal to wudoumi Dao, while others will choose to abandon wudoumi Dao. If our officials force them to stop believing in the five Dou rice way, your disciples and grandchildren will resist. "


    "But I won''t do that."


    Zhang Xiu continued with a determined look: "what I want to do is to reduce their taxes and corvee. As long as the believers no longer believe in wudoumi, they can get such treatment. "


    "Under the temptation of interests, Zhang Lu, what do you think they will do?"


    "It''s about their livelihood."


    "To speak of, the relationship between people is tough, but also extremely tough. After all, people like Yang Yi are extremely loyal. They would rather die than betray you, Zhang Lu. But ordinary people, that is not the same, the relationship is weak. In order to make a living, they will definitely give up believing in wudoumi. Even many people who hide in the mountains because of your orders can''t wait to get out of the mountains. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang Lu, what do you think?"


    Zhang Lu''s expression changed again and again.


    He did not take this issue into consideration. In fact, the reason is very simple. As soon as he says it, he can understand it.


    Zhang Lu held his hand on the wall with a solemn face. At this moment, Zhang Lu, who is really on Zhang Xiu, feels extremely anxious and exhausted.


    In fact, every word of his will be refuted mercilessly by Zhang Xiu.


    Every word of Zhang Xiu is hitting him.


    It made his army unstable.The expression on Zhang Lu''s face changed again and again. Finally, his face was as heavy as water. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, it''s easy to say. But actually, it''s not so easy to do. I''ll see what you do. "


    With that, Zhang Lu directly back, no longer pay attention to Zhang Xiu.


    He really doesn''t want to talk.


    Yang Song''s eyes dribbled around and immediately came forward and said, "Shijun, you don''t have to pay attention to Zhang Xiu. What''s more, Zhang Xiu said just now that he would attack the surrounding areas first. He estimated that for the time being, he would not attack Nanzheng. Take a rest for the time being, and guard at your humble post. If there is anything, I will inform Shijun immediately. Please make up your mind. "


    "OK, I''ll leave it to you."


    Zhang Lu nodded, turned and left.


    He and Zhang Xiu a conversation, really tired spirit, do not want to talk with Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Lu left, Zhang Qian did not leave, and remained on the tower. For Yang Song, in fact, Zhang''s heart is extremely vigilant, unwilling to believe Yang Song.


    Because Yang Song was involved in Zhang Wei''s going north.


    Zhang Xiu, who was outside the city, said nothing more. He led the troops to withdraw, left the north gate, and camped seven miles outside the north gate.


    Previously, the reason why Zhang Xiu told Zhang Lu that she would not attack Nanzheng and that she would attack other counties was actually to paralyze Zhang Lu and deliberately to create opportunities for Yang Song.


    Next, wait for the news from Yang Song and Pang Tong.


    As time goes by, the sun sets.


    The soldiers stationed on the tower have changed for a while. However, Yang Song found that no matter where he was, where Zhang was, he was clearly staring at him on purpose.


    Yang Song had no choice but to leave the north gate. Just after he left the north gate, he found that Zhang Qian didn''t follow him. Under such circumstances, Yang Song went straight back to his house.


    It was completely dark. He was waiting for Pang Tong to come.


    Because Yang song could not contact Pang Tong.


    We can only wait for Pang Tong.


    It was getting dark. Towards the early hours of the morning, a waiter reported that a guest had come from the back door. Yang Song understood immediately, and ordered people to come in.


    It''s Pang Tong!


    When Yang Song saw Pang Tong, he said: "Pang Shangshu, something''s wrong!"


    Pang Tong asked, "what''s wrong?"


    In fact, he noticed that Yang Song didn''t move until he arrived. Yang Song said that he was going to open the gate, but there was no news. Pang Tong came to Yang Song''s residence when he knew that the situation was wrong.

 Chapter 710

    Yang Songlian said: "Pang Shangshu, the reason why I said something wrong is that I was on the tower and Zhang Qian followed me all the time. Even now, I''ve arranged for people to be on the tower, but it doesn''t help. As long as Zhang is staring, I can''t do it. Pang Shangshu, you are thoughtful and think of a solution for me. "


    After a pause, Yang Song said, "is it difficult? Zhang Qian has found out that I''m submissive to Taiwei. Therefore, Zhang is ashamed to behave like this and has been staring at me. "


    "No way!"


    Pang Tong didn''t even think about it, but he denied it.


    In the current situation, once Zhang Lu knows Yang Song''s betrayal, he can''t just arrange people to stare at him. He is bound to take action, and even has already won Yang Song.


    Pang Tong said: "Zhang is staring at you. I''m just worried. So, master Yang doesn''t have to worry. At present, we still need to open the gate to welcome the LORD into the city. "


    "I can''t help it," Yang said


    Pang Tong said, "this is not really a difficult thing."


    "How to do it?" Yang Song asked


    Pang Tong replied, "there are many houses on the upper floor of the north gate. Master Yang is on the tower and has his own people. Under this premise, you just need to arrange people to invite Zhang Qian to the room, and then you can send someone to control Zhang Qian. "


    "Of course, other methods can also be used to deceive Zhang Qian into entering the house."


    "In a word, we should trap Zhang Qian."


    Pang Tong said: "I don''t want to kill Zhang Han, just control Zhang Han. It''s easy for you to open the gate after you take down Zhang Qian? "


    "Wonderful


    Yang Song said, "this will be done. I''ll arrange it right away."


    Pang Tong said: "in that case, I immediately sent someone out of the city to inform the Lord about entering the city. Wait for you to take down Yang Song and raise fire in Yinshi. At that time, welcome the LORD into the city. "


    Yang Song said, "no problem!"


    Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "in that case, I''m here. Congratulations to master Yang. Since then, you are no longer the master of Zhang Lu, but the talent of the master. Since then, it has been a smooth development. "


    Yang Song said: "thanks for Pang Shangshu''s good words! I''ll go back to the city and get ready to move. "


    "No problem!"


    Pang Tong nodded and answered.


    After Yang Song left, Pang Tong immediately wrote a letter and arranged for the royal guards to leave the city overnight. For the royal guards, it is not difficult to climb the city wall to get out of the city.


    The news spread to Zhang Xiu''s hands, but it was just after midnight.


    Zhang Xiu sees the letter sent by Pang Tong.


    In the letter, Pang Tong agreed to raise a fire at Yinshi and then open the gate of the city. Only at the end of the letter, Pang Tong specifically mentioned that when entering the city, you should pay attention to guard against Yang Song''s deceit.


    This is Pang Tong''s vigilance.


    Although Pang Tong persuaded Yang Song to surrender, it is still unknown how Yang Song thought. As long as we don''t get to the end, we can''t relax.


    Zhang Xiu''s admiration for Pang Tong is also a nod of approval.


    Pang Tong''s last sentence shows that Pang Tong was extremely cautious.


    It''s good to be careful.


    In the end, we will never know what the situation is.


    Zhang Xiu immediately called to Zhang Yan and Zhang jaw, then arranged to go on. This time, Zhang Ya and Zhang Yan only need to lead the troops. The flying Qiang army and Baima Yicong have to stay outside the city to stabilize the situation and avoid chaos.


    Even if what Pang Tong was worried about really happened, it was still up to the feiqiang army and Baima Yi to take over. After everything was arranged, Zhang Xiu continued to rest.


    On the tower, Yang Song has come back.


    After Yang song came back, Zhang Qian, who had been resting, got a report from the soldiers, and soon got up again. He followed Yang Song to inspect the city building. Like brown candy, he stuck to Yang Song.


    Yang Song stops and Zhang Qian stops.


    Yang Song quickened his pace, so did Zhang Han.


    When Yang Song looks back at Zhang Qian, Zhang Qian looks like he is full of smiles, which makes people unable to pick out any thorns. Yang Song''s heart turned quickly. He came to the room where he lived, waved his hand and said, "shame, please come in. I don''t understand why you have been following me. What''s the reason? "


    "Please


    But Zhang didn''t worry. He went straight in.


    Although he was reminded by Yan Pu, in Zhang Han''s heart, he only thought that Yang Song was suspicious and worried that he would surrender, so he followed him all the time.


    In the room, the guest and host are seated.


    Yang Song stares at Zhang Qian and says: "Mr. Qian, it''s still my question just now. Why, Mr. Qian has been staring at me all the time. I went back to the mansion. I''m sorry that you didn''t follow me. As soon as I get back to the tower, I''ll follow. Even if I go to the toilet, you are like this. What do you want to do? "


    Zhang Han explained with a smile: "I just learn from master Yang and see how he plans to guard the north gate.""You''re kidding me!"


    Yang Song looks cold and says, "don''t you just worry that I, Yang Song, will surrender to Zhang Xiu?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Qian''s face sank, and without a trace of banter and frivolity, he said with a straight face: "the whole Nanzheng, Hanzhong and even Yizhou are well known. I''m really afraid. As soon as your bones are soft, you will surrender to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Song heard this, he sneered.


    Even he wanted to kill, but thinking of Pang Tong''s words, he swallowed them and said, "I''m sorry, your words are superfluous. I, Yang Song, am the leader of the Yang family. Why surrender? "


    "Who knows?" Zhang said


    Yang Song said, "it''s just that the night is deep. There''s no need to say more between you and me. I have understood your mind. Next, I will stay in this room and will not leave easily. So you can rest assured. "


    "Thank you for your cooperation!"


    Zhang Qian said with a smile.


    At this moment, Zhang was also relieved.


    "Goodbye!"


    Without stopping, Zhang stood up and strode to the door. Then he opened the door and stepped out. At the moment when Zhang Qiangang walked out of the door, a dark shadow flashed behind him. He only heard a bang and fell to the ground.


    Then a servant dragged Zhang Qian into the room.


    Yang Song stares down on the ground, is already fainting Zhang Qian, sneers. He knew that Zhang Han would be on guard. He didn''t let anyone do it in the room. He did it when Zhang Han left.


    In this way, Zhang could not even make a sound. After taking down Zhang Qian, Yang Song went out of the house and let the soldiers guard. Then he mobilized his confidants to take down the people who belonged to Zhang Qian.


    After all this, Yang songcai mobilized the defense of the city tower and replaced it with his own family.


    The defense of the whole city changed a lot. After all this, Zhang''s heart began to feel at ease. But at the same time, he was nervous.


    Because of the current situation, he was worried that Zhang Lu would come to the city at any time. Once Zhang Lu came to the city tower, Yang Song''s actions were in vain.


    Under this premise, Zhang Lu was worried.


    Time goes by.


    In the middle of the ugly time, Yang Song had a fight.


    Although sleepy, but in fact Yang Song is a little relaxed. Because at this time, Zhang Lu must have fallen asleep in the prefect''s house, and it is impossible to patrol the defense upstairs.


    This is Yang Song''s confidence.

 Chapter 711

    As time goes by, the distance is getting closer and closer.


    Yang Song stood on the tower, his face full of expectation. At this time, Yang Song was uneasy, so he made a special inspection, carefully checked the defense of the tower, and made sure that all his people were in charge of the tower.


    As soon as Yinshi arrived, Yang Song immediately ignited the fire.


    A torch, densely lit in the city tower, raging flames burning, dispelling the darkness.


    Yang Song looks at the soldier who ignited the fire, and his heart suddenly becomes tense. A heart plops incessantly, and even a short blank appears in the brain. It takes half a sound to recover.


    At this time, there was a fire burning outside the city.


    In the dark, soldiers came out.


    Zhang Yan, the leader of the army, headed by him, ran quickly to the gate of Nanzheng.


    "Drop the drawbridge!"


    Yang Song gave the order.


    The people under his command moved immediately. As the rope pulled down a little bit, they heard a bang. The suspension bridge connected the inside and outside of the city and crossed the moat.


    "Open the gate!"


    Yang Song once again ordered that the inner gate of the urn be opened together.


    Zhang Yan and his soldiers were on their way quickly. In a short time, they had already come to the gate of the city and entered the city along the suspension bridge. As soon as Zhang Ya entered the city, he looked around and ordered some soldiers to stay at the gate of the city, guard the gate of the town, then quickly entered the city, and finally went straight to the inner gate of the urn city and occupied the inner gate of the urn city.


    Only by mastering the two gates can we guard the key to entering and leaving the city.


    After Zhang Ya''s 10000 regular troops quickly established themselves, the following regular troops, as well as the Heishan army, quickly entered the city and took control of the north gate of Nanzheng.


    The whole gate was taken down, and Zhang jaw was relieved.


    After Zhang ascended the gate, Yang Song led nearly 2000 soldiers stationed on the upper floor of the north gate to surrender. The remaining more troops are still in the barracks near the north gate.


    Zhang jaw saw Yang Song, let Yang Song lead the way, then went straight to the barracks.


    This time, we should take down the army in the city completely.


    However, the 20000 regular troops under Zhang''s command were also accompanied by 18000 black mountain troops. The remaining two thousand black mountain troops, led by Zhang Yan, went straight to Zhang Lu''s residence to win him in one go.


    Separate the two sides and move quickly.


    When Zhang Yan led nearly 40000 troops and arrived at the barracks, there was a commotion. The two sides started fighting, but the Hanzhong soldiers in the barracks in the city could not resist the sudden attack of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    The shouting did not last long, but it gradually subsided.


    The news of the army entering the city first spread to the prefecture.


    In his sleep, Zhang Lu was awakened by the soldiers. When he learned that Yang Song opened the gate of the city to welcome Zhang Xiu''s army into the city, he panicked. He even knew that there was an army coming to the prefect''s residence. Zhang Lu was more anxious and ordered: "go, go, retreat now!"


    There''s no time to pack!


    There''s no time to take gold and silver with you!


    In a hurry, Zhang Lu summoned the soldiers from the prefecture to get out of the prefecture and prepare to break out of the city. But as soon as he came out with his soldiers, he met Zhang Yan''s army.


    "Get out, let''s go to the south gate!"


    Zhang Lu made a decision and gave a quick order.


    He rode his horse on the road and ran fast. Where can Zhang Yan let Zhang Lu go? He left a thousand soldiers to surround Zhang Lu''s palace. Then, Zhang Yan personally led his soldiers to catch up quickly.


    "Chase, chase for me!"


    "If you take down Zhang Lu, you will be rewarded."


    Zhang Yan quickly ordered and led the soldiers under his command to catch up quickly.


    A group of people, fast pursuit.


    Zhang Yan with soldiers pursuit, the front of Zhang Lu found, is panic. Now he is still sleepy, his eyes are not very open, he can only be surrounded by soldiers and retreat quickly.


    The distance between the two sides is about 100 steps.


    On the one hand, Zhang Lu was on his way in the dark. On the other hand, Zhang Lu''s speed was not slow. As a result, Zhang Yan was unable to catch up with Zhang Lu for a short time. He bit his teeth and roared, "catch up with Zhang Lu today, it''s a great achievement."


    His soldiers, fast pursuit.


    That''s true. The two sides have maintained a distance of about 90 steps, so they can''t shorten the distance at all.


    From the north gate to the south gate, across the whole Nanzheng, when Zhang Lu arrived at the south gate, Zhang Yan and Zhang Lu still had about 60 steps to go, but they couldn''t catch up.


    "I''m Zhang Lu. Come on, open the gate for me."


    He gave a loud order.


    The soldiers under his command stepped forward and quickly opened the city gate. They did not dare to stay or delay. If you stay at this time, you will surely be slaughtered.


    "Creak!"


    When the city gate opened, the suspension bridge clanged down.


    "Come on, get out of town!"


    Zhang Lu orders loudly.


    The soldiers around him, surrounded by Zhang Lu, left the county in a swarm, and then quickly ran out. At this time, Zhang Lu had no purpose. He just wanted to leave Nanzheng and then Hanzhong to find someone who could avenge him.But Zhang Lu just pulled out of the South Gate less than 100 steps, suddenly, he saw a torch on the official road outside the south gate.


    Hoo Hoo!!


    The fire flashed and whistled with the wind.


    Each cavalry, straddling on horseback, stands firmly on the official road.


    The number of cavalry in this group was about 300, and all of them went straight. When Zhang Lu appeared, they quickly rushed up.


    Da! Da!!


    The rapid sound of the horse''s hooves suddenly rang out.


    With the sound of the horse''s hooves, all the soldiers rushed out like an arrow and went straight to Zhang Lu.


    "Back, back!"


    Zhang Lu saw the killed cavalry, yelled, immediately reined in the reins, to turn the direction.


    "Herod!"


    The horses hissed, snorted, and turned quickly away.


    After Zhang Lu turned around, he began to go in the direction of the east gate of Nanzheng. His side''s Pro guard, is also close behind, quickly to the East Gate direction. But under the attack of Baima Yicong cavalry, he was caught up in a short time.


    Previously in the city, Zhang Yan could not catch up.


    But Baima Yicong soldier''s horse is a real good horse, fast and big. In addition, each cavalry, it is also superb riding, can maximize the role of the horse.


    The cavalry chased after each other in less than half an hour.


    It''s a sword. If you swing it, you''ll cut it off.


    The fire is shining, the knife is shining, and with the falling of the blade, it brings out a lot of blood. Scream, one after another in the night sky sounded, Zhang Lu''s soldiers, have been killed.


    These people are Zhang Lu''s close followers, and their combat effectiveness is not strong.


    In a short time, he was slaughtered.


    "I don''t want to stop and surrender when I see Lu," he said


    The reason why he yelled his name was that he was afraid that he would be killed if he didn''t yell his name.


    Rao is so. A centurion came to kill him.


    When the centurion came to Zhang Lu''s face, the back of the knife slapped horizontally. With a bang, the back of the knife hit Zhang Lu''s back. Although the strength was not heavy enough to hurt Zhang Lu seriously, Zhang Lu was knocked down with a single blow.


    "Take it!"


    The centurion ordered.


    The soldiers came forward to control Zhang Lu.


    A moment later, Zhang Yan led the soldiers to catch up. Looking at Zhang Lu who was captured alive, her face showed a look of regret.


    What a pity!


    He chased Zhang Lu!


    If he had been earlier, he would have captured Zhang Lu alive and made great achievements. In the twinkling of an eye, Bai Ma Yi has gained this great achievement.


    Zhang Yan didn''t say much. She took the soldiers back to the south gate. Then she took the opportunity to control the south gate, and went to Zhang Lu''s residence again, ready to seal up Zhang Lu''s residence.

 Chapter 712

    The night''s fighting lasted until dawn. The people in the city found that they were under martial law before yesterday, but when they got up early in the morning, they heard the sound of gongs in the streets.


    The government announced that Nanzheng was no longer under martial law, and Zhang Xiu had entered the city.


    Zhang embroidery into the city, for the people, in fact, did not have much influence.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t enter the city last night. It was after daybreak that she ordered to set out for Nanzheng. When he entered Nanzheng city and was stationed in the military camp, Zhang Lu''s residence had been sealed up.


    Everything in the city has recovered, and the four gates are under the control of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Zhang Xiu took the war report presented by Zhang Yan.


    More than 600 people were killed last night. The main loss was caused when Zhang Yan led the army to attack the barracks. However, more than 30000 soldiers were captured.


    This is the only remaining army of Zhang Lu.


    Zhang Lu wanted to be in Nanzheng and mobilized almost the majority of his troops. In the whole city of Nanzheng, there were 30000 elites, as well as countless grain and equipment, which were enough for Zhang Lu''s army to spend at least two or three years.


    Zhang Lu did it on purpose.


    He wanted to defend himself with the help of Nanzheng, but what Zhang Lu didn''t expect was that one day later, he became a prisoner of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu arranged for Zhang Yan to count the prisoners and begin to reorganize the army.


    After arranging everything, Zhang Xiu sent someone to bring Zhang Lu up.


    In front of Zhang Lu, quite embarrassed.


    He was beaten down last night. His clothes were dirty and he was in pain. He was limping when he walked. After all, Zhang Lu was a man of honor, had no martial arts skills, and was very weak.


    See Zhang Xiu, Zhang Lu stands high, a pair of stem neck appearance.


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "Zhang Lu, in front of my official, are you ready to show your hard bone? Now not only you, but also your second brother Zhang Wei and third brother Zhang Qian are my prisoners. Are you going to take all the people from Zhangjia family to huangquan


    After hearing this, Zhang Lu showed a helpless look on his face.


    He''s a prisoner.


    All of a sudden, Zhang Lu''s arrogance dissipated. Without any more insistence, he lifted up his robe and knelt down and said, "sinner Zhang Lu, I''ll see you."


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is old and unshakable.


    Compared with the rulers of other counties, such as hansui and the king of Baima Qiang, Zhang Lu was different from these people. Under the rule of Zhang Lu, the people of Hanzhong lived and worked in peace and contentment.


    Although Zhang Lu himself believed in wudoumi, he never sold officials or extorted people''s wealth. On the contrary, Zhang Lu''s five Dou rice way is also quite beneficial to the education of the common people.


    So Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to deal with Zhang Lu. After all, Zhang Lu didn''t have the mind and ability to compete in the world.


    Zhang Lu stood up and took the initiative to say, "Zhang Lu, I''m willing to submit to Taiwei and urge him."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I am very glad that you have taken the initiative to surrender."


    Zhang Lu changed his words and said in a deep voice: "Taiwei, the sinner is puzzled. When did Yang Song work for Taiwei?"


    Now, Yang Song has lost the battle.


    Because Yang Song opened the gate of Nanzheng, Zhang Xiu''s army entered the city. Otherwise, Zhang Lu would not be in trouble. But he didn''t understand that when Yang Song was obedient to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "Yang Song''s surrender is the result of Zhang Wei''s defeat. My official went south to xiegu road. However, Yang Song''s contribution to this official has already been made before. It was Yang Song who transferred Yan Pu to Micang mountain, and it was Yang Song who helped Zhang Wei to go north. Because of all this, I can successfully win the xiegu pass. "


    Zhang Lu''s face changed again and again.


    Damn Yang Song!


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if you don''t believe Yang Song''s words, but listen to Yan Pu''s arrangement, all this will not happen. It''s a pity that Yan Pu was jailed by you. You have to thank Zuo CI. If it wasn''t for Zuo CI who said a lot of good things for you and said that your wudoumi Dao is not a common witch worshipping ghosts and gods, or a evildoer, you are now in a different place. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Lu was grateful to Zuo CI.


    In fact, Zuo CI did not take any action, but Zuo CI really influenced Zhang Lu and led to Yan Pu''s imprisonment.


    Zhang Lu said, "I don''t know. How does Tai Wei deal with the criminals?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "like Zuo Ci, I worship you as a real person and deal with the affairs of wudoumi Dao. Wudoumi Dao can exist, and I have no objection. But wudoumi Dao must publicize the advantages of the official. If wudoumi Dao has any transgression, there will be no amnesty. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Lu was relieved.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Zhang Lu in front of him. The reason why he keeps Zhang Lu and wudoumi Dao is that wudoumi Dao has a deep foundation in Hanzhong for many years.


    It is not an easy thing to ban wudoumi. Instead of this, it is better to guide the people to think that Zhang Xiu is the one who can make them eat and wear.In addition to Zuo Ci''s help, the wudoumishao family is not alone.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    After thanking him, Zhang Lu felt at ease. He didn''t lose much. If he didn''t become an official, he would not become an official. In a word, it is enough to be in charge of wudoumi Dao.


    After Zhang Xiu waved her hand, some soldiers took Zhang Lu back. At this time, instead of detaining Zhang Lu, Zhang Xiu called Zuo CI back and asked Zuo Ci to follow Zhang Lu.


    Zhang Xiu releases Zhang Wei and Zhang Qian again. Now Zhang Wei has some opinions on Zhang Lu. He and Zhang Qian work together. After meeting Zhang Lu, the three brothers don''t say much.


    In the camp, Zhang Xiu arranges for people to bring Yan Pu.


    Yan Pu is a man valued by Zhang Xiu.


    This is a man of vision.


    If Zhang Lu didn''t send Yan Pu to prison, as long as Yan Pu was always around Zhang Lu and influenced Zhang Lu, it would not be easy for Zhang Xiu to win Hanzhong.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Yan Pu, the person in front of her is quite decadent. After all, Yan Pu has been locked up in a cell for a period of time. Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "Yan Pu, would you like to work for me?"


    Yan Pu said: "Yan Pu, a sinner, even more strongly advocates fighting with Zhang Taiwei. How can Taiwei use me?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you and I, although we were against the enemy before, we had different positions. I don''t blame you. What''s more, I think you are worthy of praise. Are you willing to surrender


    "Yes!"


    Yan Pu responded directly, but said: "only Yan Pu, but there are two conditions?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Yan Pu gritted his teeth and said, "I have two conditions. Is Zhang Taiwei ready to agree?"


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "as long as the scope of our official''s ability, let alone two conditions, even ten conditions, it doesn''t matter. Let''s hear it. What''s your condition? "

 Chapter 713

    Yan Pu said: "first, don''t kill Shijun."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu immediately laughed. Zhang Lu sent Yan Pu to prison. In the end, it was Yan Pu who was thinking about Zhang Lu, not Yang Song who opened the gate.


    Loyal officials are hard to hear!


    That''s it!


    Only loyal officials, regardless of personal gain and loss advice, will pay everything.


    Zhang Xiu joked: "Yan Pu, Zhang Lu put you in prison, never thought about you. Why do you want to save Zhang Lu? "


    Yan Pu said solemnly: "Shijun sent me to prison. It can be said that I was stupid and incompetent, and I didn''t have any vision. However, Shijun promoted Yanpu to the end, so that Yanpu could have a place and show his talent. Shijun is very kind to Yanpu. Without Shijun, there would be no Yanpu today. Shijun is responsible for me, but I can''t


    "What a loyal and courageous Yan Bowen!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help praising Zhang Lu.


    First Yang Yi, then Yan Pu.


    There are many loyal officials under Zhang Lu''s command, all of them work for Zhang Lu. Unfortunately, Zhang Lu was credulous to Yang Song and indulged in the Tao of five Dou rice. All this was Zhang Lu''s own fault.


    Zhang Xiu is more appreciative of Yan Pu.


    Loyal minister and good general!


    Since ancient times, the monarch has loved it.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "come on, what''s your second request?"


    Yan Pu said in a deep voice: "my second request is to ask Taiwei to kill Yang Song and punish him. Yang Song is greedy and despicable. If such a person holds a post under the command of the Taiwei, it will certainly affect the Taiwei. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    With a solemn look on his face, he said in a deep voice: "although Yang Song is unbearable, he has made great contributions to my official. If Yang Song had not opened the gate, the army of my official would not have been able to enter Nanzheng. My official will not punish Yang Song, on the contrary, he will reward him heavily. "


    Yan Pu choked his neck and advised: "people like Yang song can submit to Taiwei for money and power today, but they can betray Taiwei for money and power tomorrow."


    "This person is not worthy of appointment."


    "Such a person, in a short time, is good for the Taiwei. But in the long run, they are the black sheep. If Taiwei would rather leave the black sheep behind and kill the men of insight, I would rather not surrender. "


    There is a voice in Yanpu''s voice: "today there is a Yangsong, and in the future there will be hundreds of Yangsong. The dike of a thousand li was destroyed in the ant nest. The Taiwei didn''t pay attention to it today. In the future, he will regret it. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "how can I not know Yang Song''s character. Today, he can open the gate for me. One day, you can open the gate for others. But no matter what, Yang Song is meritorious to this official. We have to deal with Yang Song, not now. "


    Yan Pu asked: "dare to ask Taiwei, how are you going to deal with Yang Song?"


    Anyway, he was a prisoner, and didn''t care what Zhang Xiu thought, so he asked directly. Zhang Xiu is younger than Yan Pu. Yan Pu wants to see what Zhang Xiu will say.


    The king chooses the minister, the minister also chooses the king.


    Although Zhang Xiu has made great achievements in the war, she has made countless contributions, one by one. But for Yan Pu, he had to understand carefully to be sure.


    Zhang Xiu said: "to deal with Yang Song, you have to cooperate?"


    Yan Pu said: "what do you need me to cooperate with?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I want to take you as the governor of Hanzhong and take charge of Hanzhong. At the same time, Yang Song was promoted to the rank of Cheng of Hanzhong county. You are the prefect of Hanzhong. It''s not difficult to deal with Yang Song. "


    When Yan Pu heard this, he looked surprised.


    It''s a good way to kill people with a knife.


    Yan Pu was hostile to Yang Song and hated him for opening the gate of Nanzheng, which made Zhang Lu a prisoner. If Yan Pu were to be the prefect of Hanzhong, he would certainly deal with Yang Song.


    As a matter of fact, because Yang Song opened the gate of the city to surrender to Zhang Xiu, he would fight with Yan Pu even for self-protection because of his own actions. So no matter what Yan Pu did, Yang song would do it.


    As a result, Yan Pu had to take action.


    Yan Pu didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was ready. At this moment, he was also convinced. He lifted up his robe and knelt down. He bowed to him and said solemnly, "Yan Pu, I''ll see you!"


    Zhang Xiuyan said, "now, go to your post immediately. You used to be Zhang Lu''s military adviser, dealing with the government affairs in Hanzhong. I don''t think it''s difficult for you


    "I''ll do it


    Yan Pu should go down again.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "although I allow you to deal with Yang Song, next, I will meet him. If Yang Song is appointed by me, he is willing to give up his fortune and not be the county magistrate, you can''t deal with him and let him be a rich man. "


    "I understand."


    Yan Pu should go down again.


    But in Yan Pu''s heart, he thought that Yang song could not admit his advice, let alone hand over his family property to protect his life.


    Zhang Xiu asked Yan Pu to step back, and arranged for someone to call Yang Song. At this time, Yang Song''s face was full of joy. Last night, he opened the gate for Zhang Xiu and made a great contribution to her.You know, before Zhang Xiu has promised, as long as he opened the gate, and reward. Yang Song hurriedly came forward and said, "humble Yang Song, I''d like to see Taiwei."


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand with a smile.


    "Captain Xie!"


    Yang Song bowed his hand to thank him and sat down.


    Zhang xiudao said: "You Yang Song have done a lot to conquer Hanzhong this time. Whether it''s xiegu pass or Nanzheng City, you have the credit. I will bear your credit in mind. "


    Yang Songlian hurriedly said: "Taiwei''s praise is just a trifle. It''s not worth mentioning."


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, a servant carrying a box entered the camp. The box opened, full of gold and silver jewelry, and brocade cloth, full of a big box.


    Whoo!


    Yang Song''s breath was suddenly rapid.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the money in this box is for you."


    "Captain Xie!"


    Yang Song''s heart, excited.


    What he likes most in his life is the money. When he was at home, Yang song would go to the warehouse every day to count his money. Only after having a look can he feel at ease.


    In view of the merit of Zhangcheng County, I will help you deal with it again


    "Here it is


    Yang Song bowed his hand to answer.


    He was also quite happy in his heart.


    Although he is only the prefect, with the strength of the Yang family, he will become the prefect sooner or later. In the territory of Hanzhong, with the strength of the Yang family, he was not afraid of Jun Cheng.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "step back!"


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    Yang Song had a happy look on his face and bowed out of the camp.


    Zhang Xiu was ready to tell Yang song that Yan Pu was the prefect. But in the end, he lost his mind. He wanted to see how Yang song would react when he learned that Yan Pu was a sheriff?


    That''s the real thing.


    Zhang Xiu continues to deal with the government affairs. After all, Hanzhong has many things to do. Moreover, it is only a preliminary capture of Nanzheng, and there are still many places in Hanzhong to be pacified.


    Zhang Xiu divided her army into two groups. The army headed by Zhang Yan attacked the west of Nanzheng, and the Heishan army headed by Zhang Yan attacked the east of Nanzheng.


    Zhang Xiu led Baima Yicong and feiqiang army to Nanzheng County.


    On the other hand, Yang Song went back to his family, put all the money in the box into his family''s Treasury, and then announced that he was the county governor, which made everyone in his family happy.


    After the news came out, Yang Bai, Yang Song''s younger brother, rushed in. Yang Bai Junlang''s face was full of worry and panic.

 Chapter 714

    Yang Song saw Yang Bai''s appearance and said in a deep voice, "second brother, you look flustered. Why is that?"


    "Big brother, it''s not good," Yang said


    Yang Song said, "what''s the matter?"


    Yang Bai replied, "I heard you say earlier that you were not the prefect of Hanzhong?"


    "Yes


    Yang Song replied.


    Yang Bai said: "when I went out to meet friends, I spread the news. When the other party heard it, he advised me to come back and tell my elder brother that I must be careful, otherwise it would be easy to break my family."


    Yang Song said, "why?"


    Yang Po said: "the reason is very simple. Yan Pu was released from prison and served as the prefect of Hanzhong. Yan Pu was always hostile to the Yang family. Now that he''s the prefect, and you''re the prefect, Yan Pu will certainly take the opportunity to deal with big brother. "


    Gudong!


    Yang Song swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    At this moment, Yang Song is very surprised, how did not expect, there will be such a thing.


    Yang Song looked at Yang Bai and said, "second brother, do you mean that Taiwei is going to deal with our Yang family?"


    "It''s not impossible," Yang said


    Yang Song''s face turned pale.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to deal with the Yang family, even if the Yang family is a big family in Hanzhong, it has a lot of strength. But in fact, in front of Zhang Xiu, the strength of the Yang family is still not enough.


    You know, even if Zhang Xiu sends Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan out, there are still 20000 or 30000 troops around him, not to mention the troops that are constantly reorganized. He can''t be Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    Yang Song''s eyes dribbled, thinking quickly about the way, and said, "second brother, if Taiwei wants to kill me, he doesn''t have to do this. He can kill me directly."


    Yang Bai said: "elder brother has made great contributions to Zhang Xiu. If he kills you, how can people judge him? In my opinion, brother should go to Pang Tong to ask. After all, Pang Tong contacted you at the beginning. You and Pang Tong have a little friendship. Ask, see what Pang Tong says? "


    "Yes, that''s the truth."


    When Yang Song heard this, he immediately nodded.


    He went to change his clothes and let Yang Bai stay at home. He was in a hurry to leave. At this time, Yang Bai stopped Yang Song and reminded him, "brother, I''m going to visit pangtong. Don''t you prepare some gifts?"


    "No need!"


    Yang Song didn''t want to think about it. He finally replied, "Pang Shangshu is not an ordinary person. He doesn''t like our money."


    It is impossible for him to bribe Pang Tong with money, which is tantamount to gouging out meat.


    Yang Bai is helpless and no longer persuades.


    Yang Song went out of his residence and took a carriage to Zhang Xiu''s barracks. When he arrived at the gate of the camp, Yang Song asked the soldiers on guard to report. Soon after, the soldiers came back and led Yang Song to pangtong''s camp.


    Plop!


    Yang Song knelt down and said, "Pang Shangshu, help me!"


    Pang Tong helped Yang Song up with a calm face and asked, "Yang Juncheng, why?"


    Yang Song said, "Taiwei wants to kill me!"


    When Pang Tong heard this, he let go of his hand directly. He only heard a plop, and Yang songdun fell to the ground.


    Yang Song was a little surprised.


    I don''t understand why Pang Tong did this.


    Pang Tong''s face was cold, and he said: "Yang Juncheng, be careful, disaster comes from your mouth. You have made great contributions to the Lord. For this reason, the Lord not only rewarded you with a lot of money, but also promoted you and appointed you as Cheng of Hanzhong county. "


    "As long as you perform well, you have enough qualifications in the county. At that time, it will be very easy to be a prefect. But what do you mean by that? "


    Pang Tong said: "with the heart of a villain jealous of the belly of a gentleman, if the Lord wanted to kill you, he would have killed you long ago."


    Seeing Pang Tong''s cold face, Yang Song quickly explained, "Pang Shangshu, it''s my fault. I''m wrong. It''s Yanpu who wants to kill me. It''s Yanpu who wants to kill me. "


    Pang Tong said, "Yanpu was ordered by the Lord to be the prefect of Hanzhong, but why did he kill you?"


    Yang Song said, "he and I are at odds."


    The expression on Pang Tong''s face was a trace of disdain. Pang Tong was able to understand Zhang Xiu''s intention. He really wanted to use Yan Pu to deal with Yang Song, but how to deal with it depends on Yang Song''s response.


    If Yang Song knew his interest, he would not die.


    However, Pang Tong would not mention Yang Song. He said lightly, "Yang Juncheng, Yan Pu and you have a bad relationship. But if Yan Pu takes revenge, you can appeal to the Lord, and the Lord will decide for you. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong continued: "you have to remember that as long as you stand upright, you don''t have to worry about Yan Pu. On the contrary, if Yan Pu deals with you without authorization, it''s his sheriff who''s done it. At that time, Yanpu will be dealt with. "


    Yang Song is still worried.


    He was very nervous.


    If his ass is clean, he is not afraid of Yan Pu. The problem is that Yang Song has not committed one or two things in recent years. It''s just that Zhang Lu didn''t pursue it, and the Yang family was powerful, so it had no influence.After Yan Pu came to power, many things may become the handle to deal with him.


    This is what Yang Song is worried about.


    Yang Song looked eager and said, "Pang Shangshu, please help me. Please help me. If Pang Shangshu doesn''t save me, I may be finished. "


    Pang Tong said, "have you committed a crime?"


    "No!"


    Yang Song answered immediately.


    Pang Tong once again said, "you have never committed a crime. You are more meritorious to your Lord. Under such circumstances, Yan Pu will be punished if he deals with you without authorization. Yang Song, just go back in peace. "


    "But, but..."


    Yang Song opened his mouth one after another, and his face was not reconciled.


    Pang Tong said: "Yang Juncheng, I have only one word about the Lord''s appointment of you as Juncheng. That is, to work hard in his position. In this way, you are invincible. "


    This is equivalent to not saying!


    After hearing this, Yang Song panicked and stopped staying, so he left.


    He stood in the tent, for a moment, he wanted to see Zhang Xiu, and asked Zhang Xiu to rearrange his official position, but Yang Song didn''t, and he didn''t have the courage to see Zhang Xiu.


    Moreover, he was even more reluctant to let Yang Song resign.


    Yang Song leaves nervously, while Pang Tong goes to Zhang Xiu''s camp and talks about Yang Song''s coming.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "let''s see what dispute will happen between Yan Pu and Yang Song. For the time being, we will stay in Nanzheng and wait for Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan to sweep Hanzhong. During this period of time, just wait and see what happens. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Pang Tong nodded.


    They talked about things in Nanzheng city and Zhang Lu. Now, Zhang Lu has moved away from the prefect''s residence and asked Zhang Xiu to leave Nanzheng for Chang''an and live in Chang''an.


    In this regard, Zhang Xiu is happy.


    In fact, even if Zhang Lu didn''t mention it, when Zhang Xiu left Yizhou and returned to Chang''an, she would take Zhang Lu to the north. With Zhang Lu''s prestige, it is impossible to keep Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.


    On the other side, inside the prefect''s residence.


    After Yan Pu became the prefect, he carried out drastic reform. Under the treatment of Yan Pu, many assistant officials in the prefecture were abolished, and all of them were replaced by capable officials.


    This is the advantage of Yan Pu''s familiarity with the situation. Those who are capable and those who are not are all familiar with the situation. Here in Yanpu, he did not hesitate, the direct dismissal of the abolition.


    There are many big family taxis in the prefecture. In particular, there are many people in the Yang family. Before that, under Zhang Lu''s command, Yan Pu didn''t want to be the enemy of Yang song or deal with the Yang family.


    But now, Zhang Xiu appoints Yang Song as the county magistrate. This is for him to deal with Yang Song. Under this premise, Yanpu dismissed the Yang family without any hesitation.


    It''s just like this. It''s totally new.


    Nowadays, most of the people who have been promoted are poor scholars, and most of them are on Yan Pu''s side, led by Yan Pu.


    When Yan Pu was dealing with government affairs, he got the news that Yang Song went to the barracks to visit Pang Tong, and finally left. With a cold smile, Yang song can''t jump for long now.

 Chapter 715

    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Yan Pu said, "come in!"


    The assistant''s door was opened in a hurry and a groan came in. The assistant official was holding a pile of books in his hand. The assistant official came to Yan Pu and reported: "my Lord, all the information about Yang Song has been collected. Over the years, Yang Song and all kinds of things committed by the Yang family have been recorded. "


    Yan Pu took it over, looked at it quickly, and nodded slightly.


    In fact, he knows most of the information collected. Yan Pu and Yang Song are under Zhang Lu''s command. They have worked together for many years. He knows Yang Song''s affairs like the back of his hand.


    Yan Pu stood up and said, "mobilize all the Yamen officers and go to the Yang family with me."


    "Here it is


    The assistant official went to inform immediately.


    Yan Pu arranged for assistant officials to mobilize yamen officers, but arranged for people to send messages to the barracks.


    After all this, Yan Pu waited quietly. It wasn''t long. About a quarter of an hour later, all the officers of the prefect''s office had assembled, and a group of assistant officials were also with them.


    These people left with Yan Pu, holding the documents.


    When Yan Pu took people to the Yang family, they were in the Yang family''s house. After Yang Song returned to the mansion, he and Yang Bai sat down in the hall and said Pang Tong''s words. Finally, he sighed: "Pang Tong said from beginning to end that as long as we are upright, as long as there is no problem, Zhang Xiu will make the decision for us. Now it seems that the Yang family is in danger. "


    Yang Bai said: "brother, I have a way."


    When Yang Song went to see Pang Tong, Yang Bai had been thinking about something to solve, and he had some ideas in his heart.


    "What can I do?" Yang Song asked


    Yang Bai replied, "if you want to keep yourself and the Yang family, you have to take out the Yang family''s savings and donate all your family wealth to Zhang Xiu as Zhang Xiu''s military expenditure."


    "Besides, my Yang family has many grain shops. Then he took out the grain stored in the granary and donated it to Zhang Xiu. If we give money and food, Zhang Xiu can''t connive Yan Pu to deal with us. "


    Yang Bai said: "before Zhang Xiu reward money, big brother should not accept."


    "I pondered that if the elder brother didn''t accept the money and treasure given by Zhang Xiu at that time, or even donated the money and treasure to Zhang Xiu instead, Zhang Xiu might not use Yan Pu as the prefect."


    "Even if you use Yanpu as the prefect, you won''t let elder brother be the prefect."


    "Now Yanpu is the prefect and the eldest brother is the prefect. It''s like putting the eldest brother and the Yang family on the fire. The current situation is extraordinary. If you don''t pay attention, the Yang family is in danger of overturning. "


    Yang Bai suggested: "in my opinion, elder brother will go to see Zhang Xiu immediately and give him all the food, money and treasures."


    "Alas..."


    When Yang Song heard this, he couldn''t help sighing.


    This is a situation he does not want. The money of the Yang family was picked out bit by bit during his tenure in Hanzhong. It''s not easy to accumulate this property and let him give it all to Zhang Xiu, just like gouging out meat.


    "No way!"


    "Absolutely not!"


    Yang Song gritted his teeth and made a decision in his heart.


    Yang said in a deep voice: "brother, as long as our brothers are alive and the Yang family is still alive, what are you afraid of? The lost money will come back one day. Once we fall down now, I''m afraid the Yang family will be finished. "


    Yang Song still stubbornly shook his head and said, "second brother, you don''t have to worry. Even if Yan Pu wants to deal with me and the Yang family, it''s not easy. It is not known who will deal with whom? "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the housekeeper entered.


    The housekeeper bowed himself and said, "master, there is a side branch of the family outside the house. I want to see the master."


    "Please


    Yang Songfen said.


    The housekeeper has orders to inform immediately.


    After a while, six tall people of different ages entered. The oldest person is about 50 years old, and the youngest is in his early twenties, who has just been crowned.


    "Master, you are in charge for us!"


    "Master, as the assistant official of the prefect''s mansion, I do my best and do my duty. Well, how could he be suddenly dismissed from office and expelled from the prefect''s office? "


    "Me too!"


    "Please make the decision for us!"


    "Yanpu is arrogant and domineering. Please take Yanpu down."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the expression on all faces showed helplessness and anger. They didn''t expect that they were directly dismissed by Yan Pu.


    They have no right to speak in front of Yan Pu. But they believe in Yang Song. After all, Yang Song is the county magistrate and the head of the Yang family, so they come to Yang Song one by one.


    "All quiet!"


    Yang Song gave a loud drink.


    His eyes swept, and all of them immediately fell silent.


    A pair of eyes, fell on Yang Song.


    Yang Song said: "in the current situation, everyone knows that Yan Pu wants to deal with us and the Yang family. No matter you or I, we should start to deal with Yan Pu. ""Yan Pu wants to deal with my Yang family and my Yang Song. He thinks very well. My Yang family has been in Hanzhong for more than a hundred years. All along, they are the only family with countless contacts. "


    "Now go back and send orders to the people all over the country, so that they can do something. I''d like to see how he can stabilize the situation without the help of my Yang family. "


    Yang Song is ready to start.


    Since Yan Pu has already done it, Yang Song will not admit his advice. He will give a tit for a tat.


    "Here!"


    When they heard the words, they all responded.


    For them, Yang Song has a decision, they just need to carry out Yang Song''s order. In particular, when Yang Song decided to make a move, they had the backbone and the heart was steady.


    "Master, it''s not good!"


    Suddenly, the housekeeper''s voice came from the door.


    The housekeeper ran recklessly. When he stepped into the door of the hall, because he didn''t notice the threshold, he tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.


    After a scream, he quickly got up and said in pain, "master, Yan Pu is here. Yan Pu took more than 100 yamen servants to the gate. The villain let his family guard him and was in a confrontation for the time being. "


    Yang Song''s face suddenly changed.


    He never thought that he had not taken action, and Yan Pu had already called.


    This surprised Yang Song.


    There was a trace of panic on Yang Song''s face. In a twinkling of an eye, he calmed down and said, "second brother, you muster all the people in our family. I''ll see what Yanpu can do with my Yang family. "


    "Here it is


    Yang Bo should go down and send an order as soon as possible.


    Yang Song looked at the rest of the Yang family and said, "let''s go. We''ll meet Yanpu today."


    All of us should go down together.


    Everyone together, follow Yang Song out of the hall. Not long after, Yang Bai followed Yang Song closely with his private soldiers. Although these private soldiers have no top armor, they also have swords around their waists.


    This is the strength of the Yang family.


    As a hundred year old family in Hanzhong, the Yang family has more than 2000 private soldiers.


    Its power is not simple.


    Yang song brings people to the gate. His eyes fall on Yan Pu, who is marching with yamen servants outside the residence. He says coldly, "Yan Pu, why do you want to break into the Yang family with yamen servants?"


    "What do you want to do?"


    Yan Pu laughed and said, "all kinds of crimes committed by the Yang family, and all kinds of crimes committed by you, Yang Song, have been verified, and there are as many as 99. Pile by pile, piece by piece, white bones. Today, I''d like to avenge those who were wrongly killed by you, Yang Song, and bullied by the Yang family. "


    Yang Song sneered: "as soon as Yan Pu takes office, he has to deal with me. He has also committed 99 so-called crimes. Ha ha ha I don''t want to admit it. Yan Pu, although you are the prefect of Hanzhong, I am also the prefect of Hanzhong. Even if your position is higher than mine, I am not afraid to do it. I''m not afraid to be in front of the Taiwei. "


    Yan Pu said: "so, I''m going to take you back to the prefecture for interrogation. Are you ready to resist?"

 Chapter 716

    Yang Song raised his head and threw it to the ground with a voice: "I, Yang Song, as a sheriff, can sit upright. I take people to resist, not to disobey orders, but because of your private use of Yan Pu''s tools and revenge, so I resist. Just now I have made it very clear that Yang Song will not admit it if he wants to add to the crime. "


    "Here''s your evidence."


    Yan Pu waved, grabbed a stack of books in front of him and threw them out directly.


    The books fell to the ground and scattered.


    Yan Pu said: "in every book, there is your criminal evidence, and there is your Yang family''s criminal evidence."


    Yang Song did not look at it. He said, "it''s just a slander. It can''t be true. Who can''t do this trick of planting and framing? Yan Pu, if you want to plant something, I, Yang Song, will never agree with you, let alone give in. "


    "You don''t plead guilty?"


    Yan Pu big sleeve a brush, way: "today, can''t help you don''t confess."


    Yang Song clenched his teeth and said angrily, "if you do it, the son of my family will never agree. He is bound to resist. Yan Pu, even if you are a sheriff, you can''t do whatever you want. "


    "Do whatever you want?"


    Yan Pu said with a smile: "if you dare to resist, you are rebellious. There is no amnesty for treason! "


    "I''m not rebellious, I''m just protecting myself," Yang said. You Yanpu dare to fight, I dare to resist. I''m not afraid of it when it comes to Taiwei, and I''m reasonable. "


    "I''ll see how you fight."


    Yan Pu retreated a few steps, returned to the Yamen servant, and ordered: "up, take down Yang Song!"


    With the order of Yanpu, one by one yamen servants came forward, ready to catch Yang Song. At this time, Yang Song waved, and the private soldiers of his family killed directly. At this time, Yang Song also went out of his way and ordered: "take Yanpu for me. I want to take Yanpu and report to Taiwei."


    He is ready to start first, take the crime of Yan Pu, and then complain to Zhang Xiu. At that time, even if Zhang Xiu to deal with him, but taking into account the strength of the Yang family, may not start.


    Private soldiers rushed out one by one and went straight to the Yamen.


    The two sides immediately fought together.


    After all, the Yamen officers of the prefect''s office had never been to the battlefield, and their combat effectiveness was weak. In particular, the number of people is small. As soon as the private soldiers of the Yang family are killed, they begin to collapse.


    Yan Pu looked calm.


    No panic at all.


    He turned his head and saw a group of soldiers pouring out at the corner of the street outside the Yang''s residence.


    The number of soldiers is not many, only one thousand.


    The leader is Ma Chao.


    When Yan Pu saw Ma Chao coming, he bowed his hands and did not speak. Ma Chao was ordered to follow Yan Pu''s arrangement. When Yan Pu arrived earlier, he had already told Ma Chao that he would ask Ma Chao to lead the soldiers to solve the Yang family''s private soldiers once they were killed.


    So Ma Chao led the troops to kill the past.


    No words.


    Ma Chao shot one person at the front. A moment later, Ma Chao killed at the gate of the residence. The golden spear of tiger head Zhan was raised and the tip of the spear was flashing in the air. All the private soldiers of the Yang family died in Ma Chao''s hands.


    The soldiers followed and went straight ahead.


    The Yang family had a large number of private soldiers, but they were careless. When they fought with the soldiers led by Ma Chao, they were defeated like a mountain.


    Yang Song roared, "why?"


    However, Yang Song''s questioning resulted in merciless killing. The killing didn''t last long. In less than half an hour, the private soldiers of the Yang family were completely defeated. Yang Song and Yang Bai were captured, and the rest of the Yang family''s legitimate families were captured.


    All the servants of the Yang family are disbanded.


    The Yang family, they''re being raided.


    Yan Pu ordered the Yamen to take Yang Song and his family, and then he began to count the Yang family''s belongings. After counting everything, Yan Pu was shocked to see the treasures.


    Such a large Yang family can be said to be as rich as a country.


    There is no amount of wealth.


    Yan Pu sealed up all the goods and arranged for the Yamen to carry them to the barracks. When he came to the barracks and saw Zhang Xiu in the Chinese army tent, he said respectfully, "Lord!"


    Zhang xiudao: "have you solved Yang Song?"


    "Yes


    Yan Pu answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu nodded with satisfaction. In fact, she disdained Yang Song.


    A greedy, a money can wantonly betray the people, Zhang Xiu can not reuse. If Yang Song is smart enough and knows how to advance and retreat, she will not let Yan Pu kill Yang Song.


    Unfortunately, Yang Song is too greedy.


    Yan Pu said: "if you check the Yang family, you will get 300 Jin of gold, 600 Jin of silver and countless five baht. In addition, there are 60 cases of precious jade. There are countless land titles and grain in the Yang family. The amount is too huge and is still in the statistics. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was extremely shocked.


    Yang Song has so much wealth. The storage of gold is not about two, but about three hundred jin. This is not a small fortune. In addition, there are countless five baht coins and precious jade.


    Such collection is not simple.After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu asked, "is there a lack of money in the imperial palace?"


    "No shortage!"


    Yan Pu shook his head and said, "there is enough money and food in the Treasury, so everything is well in Hanzhong county. Even if we want to reduce taxes and corvee, it will have little impact on the pressure of CAI Zheng in Hanzhong. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, all the wealth will be put in the army."


    "Here it is


    Yan Pu bowed his hand.


    When he came, he brought all the goods and gave them to Zhang Xiu''s people.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the disposal of Yang family members, you dispose according to the law, do not need to report. All the land titles obtained by the Yang family were used as official land. Some of these fields can be given to the people for farming. In addition, some of them were rented to the people for farming. As for all the grain, it will be filled into Hanzhong''s treasury. "


    "I''ll do it


    Yan Pu should go down again.


    With sufficient land and food, it was easier for Yanpu to be in charge of Hanzhong. In many cases, land and food are far more attractive than money.


    When Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Yan Pu retreated.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for Sima Yi to be called and said, "Yan Pu seized the Yang family and got countless wealth. The soldiers in the army should be rewarded for this battle. After Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan return, the reward will be distributed. The soldiers should take the money back to Chang''an''s home, or to other places, so that the transport soldiers can send it back. It''s time for them to benefit from this war. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi immediately responded and turned to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu is alone in the camp and has nothing to do. She starts to arrange for Wang Yue to inquire about Liu Zhang. After taking Hanzhong, Zhang Xiu''s goal was Liu Zhang.


    Kill Liu Zhang and take control of Yizhou.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s wild hope.


    In late May, Zhang Ya and Zhang Yan returned with their troops. Both of them completed their tasks and swept the whole Hanzhong. The army also offered rewards for their contributions.


    When Zhang Xiu was about to send troops to the south, Wang Yue hurried into the camp and reported: "Lord, there is a man from outside the camp who claims to be Ambassador Liu Zhang and has come to see him."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu had some accidents. He had not sent troops to attack Liu Zhang. Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang arranged people to come first.

 Chapter 717

    Soon after, a slender young man with bright eyes and dark complexion strode into the camp. He bowed his hand to Zhang Xiu and said, "under the command of Liu Zhang, Yizhou herdsman, I''d like to meet Zhang Taiwei."


    Zhang Xiu has a smile on her eyebrows. Unexpectedly, it''s Fazheng.


    This is Liu Zhang''s talent.


    In a word, Fazheng''s ancestral home is no longer Yizhou, but Guanzhong people. When he was young, he grew up in Guanzhong. After Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Guanzhong was in turmoil and the people were in dire straits. Fazheng took refuge in Yizhou and worked for Liu Zhang.


    Under Liu Zhang''s command, Fazheng is now a military officer.


    In fact, it''s a virtual job.


    Nowadays, Fazheng has not been paid much attention by Liu Zhang.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Fazheng, as far as I know, you are from Guanzhong. Why did you go to Yizhou to serve such a stupid and incompetent person as Liu Zhang


    When Fazheng heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he was surprised and even more surprised.


    Does Zhang Xiu know him?


    Although Zhang Xiu is young, today''s Zhang Xiu, as a great Han''s Taiwei, governs three states, and already has the power to see the world as a tiger. Fazheng was pleased that such a powerful man praised him.


    Fazheng bowed himself slightly and said modestly, "Taiwei is not worthy of praise. Taiwei said that it was biased to cast pearls in secret. During the period of governing Yizhou, the people in Yizhou lived and worked in peace and contentment. There are not many places in the world that can benefit the prosperity of the state. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed, meaningful smile, inexplicably let the law is some guilty.


    Yizhou is indeed quite rich.


    In fact, Liu Zhang''s ability is very ordinary.


    In fact, Yizhou''s success depends on the governance of Liu Yan in the past. Liu Yan had strong ability. During the period of governing Yizhou, he used Guanzhong scholars and local scholars to balance and restrain both sides, but Liu Zhang did not have this ability.


    Fazheng didn''t show anything. He was indifferent.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "if I remember well, when Liu Yangang died five years ago, Shen Mi, Lou FA and Gan Ning saw that Liu Zhang was not benevolent, so they fought against him, but eventually failed. Now, Gan Ning is just under my command. He is the chief General of the fierce tiger army. He is a tiger General of my official. "


    Fazheng frowned because he was surprised. Zhang Xiu is too familiar with Liu Zhang''s news and knows the situation of Yizhou very well.


    What happened five years ago is so familiar.


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and continued: "at the beginning of this year, Zhao Wei made trouble in Yizhou and gathered in Jiangzhou. Up to now, Liu Zhang has never pacified Zhao Wei. "


    "Both the local scholars in Yizhou and Sergeant Guan were dissatisfied with Liu Zhang."


    "How can we say to live and work in peace and contentment?"


    "Although Yizhou was not attacked by various vassals, nor was it disturbed by yellow scarves, and it was fertile and wild, the people''s life was still tolerable. But in fact, Liu Zhang didn''t even have the means to control his subordinates, let alone any prestige. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "Fazheng, you say Liu Zhang knows people and makes good use of them. It''s a bunch of nonsense. If you follow Liu Zhang, it''s a shot in the dark. You are very talented. How about taking a post under my command? I''m still short of a master''s office. Would you like to take up the post? "


    Before that, Yang Xiu was the chief bookkeeper.


    Now Yang Xiu is the governor of Liangzhou. After Yang Xiu left, Zhang Xiu didn''t arrange anyone to fill in. On the one hand, the main government affairs were dealt with by the six ministers; on the other hand, Sima Yi was accompanied to deal with government affairs, but Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry.


    After hearing this, Fazheng felt a little thirsty.


    In fact, he had no rights and did not get the attention of Liu Zhang. In addition, Liu Yizhang was not able to exert his talents, which made it difficult for him to exert his abilities.


    You know, once you become Zhang Xiu''s master book, you''ll reach heaven step by step. Since then, what he has learned all over his body can be fully applied and he has a future.


    However, after thinking about it, Fazheng didn''t respond to it. Instead, he said, "Taiwei''s kind invitation makes Fazheng very grateful. What is the virtue of Fazheng? It won the praise of Taiwei. We can be in their position and seek their own policies. Today, I am still a military officer appointed by my Lord, and I will serve as my Lord. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    He heard the voice out of the way.


    If Zhang Xiu exterminates Liu Zhang, Fazheng can work for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said more and asked, "tell me, what did Liu Zhang send you to Hanzhong for?"


    Fazheng said with great vigour: "report back to Taiwei. The LORD sent me to Hanzhong. It''s the Lord who wants to make an alliance with Taiwei. The two sides will keep watch and help each other and will not invade each other."


    "As long as the Taiwei is willing, the Lord is willing to send soldiers to help the Taiwei sweep away all the officials in the world and attack all the states in the world. Today''s Yizhou is strong enough to help Taiwei. "


    "Of course, if Taiwei is not willing to make an alliance with the Lord and insists on going south, we should fight with all our strength. Yizhou is strong and strong enough to compete with Taiwei''s troops. "


    "If the two sides fight, the Taiwei will lose."Fazheng said, "if Taiwei''s troops are blocked in Yizhou, I''m afraid it will affect Taiwei''s next battle with Cao Cao and Yuan Shao. On the contrary, it would be as easy for Taiwei to defeat Yuan Shao and Cao Cao if there were soldiers of our Lord. As the saying goes, the right of the two evils is the least, and the right of the two benefits is the most important. The Lord and Zhang Taiwei will benefit each other if they are united, and both will lose in battle. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu refused directly and said, "you are sure, but for me. Liu Zhang''s military strength is nothing but a local chicken and a local dog, which is not worth mentioning. "


    With Zhang Xiu, the alliance is meaningless.


    What Zhang Xiu wants is the whole Yizhou. The so-called alliance is just a treaty. Between countries, there are only permanent interests, not permanent treaties. The same is true between Zhang Xiu and Liu Zhang. Zhang Xiu would rather have a completely controlled Yizhou than an ally.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s understanding.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s decision, Fazheng stopped lobbying and said in a deep voice, "in that case, I''ll get up immediately, return to Chengdu and tell the Lord the news."


    Zhang xiudao said: "Fazheng, the position of chief bookkeeper around me is waiting for you at any time."


    "Captain Xie!"


    Fazheng bowed again and turned away.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the back of Fazheng''s departure, and a smile is stirred up in the corner of her mouth. There are two reasons why he is recruiting Fazheng. First, Fazheng is really talented. It''s a pity that such talents are not recruited. Second, Fazheng did not explicitly refuse, which means Fazheng has a good impression of Zhang Xiu.


    Under this premise, even if Fazheng returns to Chengdu, he may not go all out to help Liu Zhang with his ideas. Without top counselors to give advice for Liu Zhang, Zhang Xiu''s strength would be reduced.


    Zhang Xiu took a rest and ordered her to leave for the south.


    After leaving Nanzheng, the army set out to the south of Yizhou. This time when Yizhou was attacked, Zhang Xiu did not attack the remote Bajun, but went directly to Guanghan.


    If you attack Guanghan County, you can attack Guanghan county.


    This is the way to attack the Yellow Dragon.

 Chapter 718

    Zhang Xiu''s army is moving south. The whole of Hanzhong is under the control of Zhang Xiu, so all the way is very smooth, successfully arrived at the Nanzheng border.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest.


    Now it''s getting hot in June.


    Marching soldiers, in addition to armor, are very thin inside and outside, to avoid too hot. The soldiers in charge of the logistics began to cook and prepare meat for noon.


    Zhang Xiu herself, together with Sima Yi and Pang Tong, took out the map of Guanghan County for research.


    From the south of Guanghan County, the first is baishuiguan.


    Only by breaking the white water pass can we go south.


    In particular, baishuiguan is only a gateway, not the most difficult one. There are many barriers on the way from Guanghan county to Shu county. This is also the reason why it is difficult to attack Yizhou. All the way is not a smooth broad road. The road is very difficult.


    Pang Tong stared at the map, looked at baishuiguan, and said in a deep voice: "Lord, according to the news, the commander of baishuiguan is Zhang Ren. He is a general under the command of Liu Zhang, a herdsman in Yizhou. He is both civil and military, and is deeply trusted by Liu Zhang. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "it can be said that Zhang Ren was in charge of the army for Liu Zhang to be a herdsman in Yizhou. We can rely on Zhang Wei to deal with Yang Yi last time. But according to the news, it''s not so easy to deal with Zhang Ren. "


    Sima Yi also said: "Pang Shangshu said that although baishuiguan is not as dangerous as xiegu pass, in fact, Zhang Ren''s presence in baishuiguan is the biggest problem."


    Zhang Xiu sighed and said, "Zhang Ren, this is my elder martial brother."


    "Ah


    When Pang Tong and Sima Yi heard the speech, they all exclaimed.


    Is Zhang Ren Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother?


    It''s amazing.


    You know, Zhao Yun, as Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother, has excellent martial arts skills and excellent shooting skills. Zhang Ren is the elder martial brother of Zhang Xiu and Zhao Yun. How good is his martial arts? For a moment, both of them had some inner drumming.


    Zhang Xiu said: "but my elder martial brother Zhang Ren and I didn''t get along for long. And I know him. He''s not going to be private. It''s almost hard to be emotional. "


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi looked at each other and showed their helplessness. When they heard that Zhang Ren had a relationship with Zhang Xiu, they also thought about taking the baishuiguan pass with the help of Zhang Xiu''s brother''s emotion.


    Now, it''s impossible.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you said that according to the information sent back by Wang Yue, if you attack baishuiguan, you are almost sure to win."


    Pang Tong thought for a while, and then replied, "if we really attack baishuiguan, we will certainly seize it. After all, we have enough troops. If I were Zhang Ren, knowing that the LORD was powerful, I would not fight in baishuiguan. "


    "It must be blocking and weakening the troops going south."


    "Fighting in baishuiguan will consume our troops."


    "Next, when we go south to Jiameng County, we will be obstructed from entering Jiameng pass; when we go south to Zitong County, there will be Zitong pass. In the end, there is Jianmen pass, the southernmost pass of Jianmen road. "


    "All the way south, there are countless checkpoints."


    Pang Tong said: "Zhang Renwu is good at martial arts, and he is also proficient in the art of war. He can resist along the way and constantly weaken the Lord''s strength. At the end of the day, even if the Lord passed through Mianzhu, Luoxian and Xindu, he could directly approach Chengdu, but by that time, his troops had been weakened to the extreme. "


    "Zhang Ren''s forces are strong enough to defeat us completely."


    "The land of Yizhou is not like the Central Plains, nor the water town of Jiangnan. In its territory, there are countless mountains and numerous ups and downs, which increase the difficulty of our capture. "


    Pang Tong said: "so if you attack hard, it''s definitely not cost-effective."


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement. He agreed with Pang Tong''s analysis.


    That''s true.


    After hearing this, Sima Yi looked dignified. As Pang Tong said, it was not easy to do.


    A sound of footwork came from not far away.


    But Wang came in a hurry.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, outside our military camp, there is a man named Hu Mo asking to see him."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang yuechen reported: "Hu Mo said that he had a plan to break the baishuiguan pass."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to turn around and arrange.


    Not long after, Wang Yue was carrying a man who was more than 30 years old, with dark complexion, scattered sideburns and patched clothes.


    This person is Hu mo.


    He followed Wang Yue and approached Zhang Xiu. When he saw Zhang Xiu, his face was very excited and a little bit uneasy. When he came to Zhang Xiu''s body, Hu Mo bowed himself and said, "Cao min Hu Mo, meet Taiwei."


    Zhang Xiu looks at Hu Mo and listens to his words. Although Hu Mo''s clothes are simple, Hu Mo has a wise and understanding look. He nodded slightly and said, "do you think there is a plan to help me break the white water pass?""Yes


    Hu Mo replied quickly.


    Zhang xiudao: "you are talking about how to defeat the enemy?"


    Hu Mo said: "tell Taiwei back, there''s no basis for his words. Taiwei is willing to go six miles northwest with the grass people. It''s a mountain depression. It''s a gathering place for my people. When they arrive, they can tell Tai Wei how to break the white water barrier. "


    At this point, Hu Mo was slightly worried and said again, "of course, if Taiwei wants to listen to CaoMing, it''s OK. It''s just that Cao min''s description is incoherent, and Cao min is not a good speaker. I''m afraid he didn''t describe it clearly. On the contrary, Tai Wei didn''t like it. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "since that''s the case, I''ll go with you."


    "Not my Lord!"


    Pang Tong didn''t even think about it. He remonstrated: "Lord, it''s not clear who Hu Mo is. How can you trust him. If this person is a dead man and wants to kill the Lord, it will be quite dangerous. "


    Sima Yi also said, "I don''t suggest you go in person, just go by me.


    As soon as Hu Mo heard this, he immediately became anxious and solemnly said: "Taiwei, I''m not a man with bad intentions. I was born in Mohism, and I am a Mohist. Now the Mohist school is declining, and it is difficult to manage due to the lack of money turnover. I came to Taiwei. I swear to heaven. If I have any plot against the Taiwei, I will die a terrible death. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose, revealing an unexpected look.


    Mohist.


    Zhang Xiu knows about Mohism.


    Mohism in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period was one of the most prominent schools in the world. It was not only able to make utensils, but also had its own set of knowledge. However, until now, Mohism has long disappeared, leaving only some skilled craftsmen.


    Most of the time, no one calls himself Mohist. After all, it is easy to be criticized.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I believe you. Let''s go."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu took Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Shi a, and a group of bodyguards with him. Then he put on Pang Tong and Sima Yi and went to the Northwest with Hu mo.


    The army was stationed for the time being, and Zhang Xiu and his party rode fast.


    A few miles away, not long time, Zhang Xiu and his party came to the col. The scenery here is quite beautiful, but there is a flat area in the mountain forest, where houses gather everywhere.


    Hu Mo waved his hand and led Zhang Xiu down the mountain to the village.


    The closer you get, the better you can see the village.


    The village is not big. Roughly speaking, there are more than 50 households. Roughly speaking, there are two or three hundred people. Most of the people in the village, like Hu Mo, are dressed simply and patched.


    Because of the hot weather, some of the children gathered in this village were naked and never wore anything.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she really understood.


    If Hu Mo is really from Mohism, he is in a bad situation.

 Chapter 719

    Hu Mo walked in the front and said with a smile: "Taiwei, please follow me. Next, I''ll take you to see through the weapons of baishuiguan. We''ll operate it, and the Taiwei will know when he sees it. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Not long after, Hu Mo led people back to his own home.


    Hu Mo was in his early thirties and the leader of the village. In fact, the people in the village originally called Hu Mo a giant because they thought Hu Mo was the leader of the Mohist school.


    But in Hu Mo''s view, the Mohist School in the world is no longer the Mohist School of the past, just a group of skilled craftsmen, so he rejected the title of "giant". He didn''t take a wife, and he didn''t have any children under his knees, but he had a few disciples who lived with them.


    When Hu Mo returned to the courtyard, all the disciples immediately gathered. Hu Mo nodded and saw the disciples under the door, cheering and quickly moving out a huge object from the room.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised when she saw it.


    This object is similar to the later hot air balloon. The surface of the sphere used for launch can be seen clearly at a glance. The innermost layer of the sphere is made of the most common cloth.


    On the outside of the cloth, it is the sheepskin, cowhide and pigskin that are sewn together to avoid air leakage. At the bottom, there is a hanging basket with ignition device.


    One should be set, very delicate.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, before she spoke, she saw Hu Mo and his disciples and quickly started to light the fire. The fuel for ignition is not firewood or charcoal, but anthracite from Nanyang County.


    The heat of coal combustion is large, which can ensure the smooth launch of the hot-air balloon.


    With the burning of coal and stone, there is more and more heat escaping. Gradually, the sphere on the ground gradually expands. Under the impact of the hot gas, it begins to lift off slowly.


    The bottom of the basket, there is a hook, hook the ground stake. Even if the basket is launched, it can not continue to fly away, and it can still stand in the air smoothly.


    Hu Mo saw the balloon rising and his face was filled with a smile. He looked forward and said in a deep voice: "Taiwei, this is our secret weapon, which is enough to let Taiwei break through the white water pass."


    "This basket is big enough to hold ten people."


    "Every family in our village has one, but there are forty-three people who are skilled and can operate smoothly. We can transport more than 400 people into baishuiguan at one time. "


    "As long as you run a few more times, you can transport thousands of troops into baishuiguan."


    Hu Mo said: "with this weapon, it''s easy for Taiwei to break the white water pass. But Taiwei must doubt whether it is true or false. Don''t worry, I will enter the operation immediately. When we take off, the Taiwei will understand. "


    "No need to operate!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    "Ah


    Hu Mo heard it and exclaimed.


    The look on his face broke down and immediately said, "don''t you believe us, Taiwei? Ask Taiwei to give us a chance. We will make Taiwei believe it. "


    After a pause, Hu Mo solemnly said: "as long as you see it, you will believe it. After we take off, we will also consider the speed according to the wind direction and the force of the wind. We have considered all kinds of things. With us, there must be no problem. "


    He can''t wait to speak.


    In fact, all the people in the village are Mohist children. They live a hard life for Mohist ideals. Just so, when he got the news that Zhang Xiu was going south, Hu Mocai went to see Zhang Xiu in person, hoping to get Zhang Xiu''s help.


    With the support of Zhang Xiu, they can not only guarantee their life, but also continue to study.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "don''t worry. I believe in you and the people in your village."


    "Captain Xie, Captain Xie."


    Hu Mo couldn''t help rubbing his hands, and his face was full of excitement and excitement.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what do you call this device?"


    "Flying ball!"


    Hu Mo didn''t even think about it and answered directly.


    After a pause, Hu Mo said once again: "we first made flying kites. But the flying kite, although it can also fly in the air, is easy to cause accidents and is not easy to operate. "


    "Later, we found that the candle was covered with a layer of paper and could fly up into the sky."


    "Then some of us came up with the idea of making a flying ball. However, the production process is not easy. After countless experiments, the current results can be achieved. "


    Hu Mo said: "not only that, every family in the village can make and control it. Taiwei, this is absolutely possible. It won''t go wrong. Not only that, we''ve flown countless times, and we''re sure to succeed. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He believed what Hu Mo and others said. Unexpectedly, he met a group of inventors.


    That''s a good thing.


    In Zhang Xiu''s opinion, these people are all treasures.


    Zhang xiudao said: "if you are polite to others, you must ask for something. Say, you find my official, and try your best to sell the flying ball, saying that you can help me break the white water barrier, what benefits do you want to get? "Hu Mo heard this, a heart suddenly excited, zhengse way: "return to Taiwei, villain ask, no other, just ask Taiwei to give some money to help. Although each family is barely self-sufficient. But in fact, we Mohists, if we want to make and experiment one by one, it will cost countless money. Therefore, I sincerely ask Taiwei to give me some money. Of course, if Taiwei is willing to take us in, it will be better. "


    But Zhang Xiu laughed in her heart.


    This is a very simple condition.


    Needless to say, these flying balls are priceless to Zhang Xiu. With these flying balls, Zhang Xiu is really able to win baishuiguan easily.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Hu Mo, you can work for me if you want?"


    When Hu Mo heard this, he also had a glimmer of hope in his eyes. He is not an official fan, but he wants to be an official. Because as an official, he can take care of the people in the village, have a stable income, and help the rest of the people.


    That''s all!


    Previously, what he said was that Zhang Xiu was willing to accept it, which was better.


    Now, Zhang Xiu wants to attract him.


    That''s better.


    Hu Mo thought about it, but said honestly: "Taiwei, can a person like villain be an official? I can''t March, I can''t fight, I can''t govern. Let me be an official, I''m afraid I''ll be a vegetarian. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "I let you be an official, not let you march and fight, nor let you govern the place. It''s just that you can take the disciples and the Mohist children in the village and concentrate on making utensils. "


    "I will supply all my money."


    Zhang xiudao said: "as long as your people are willing to be officials, I can make arrangements. In addition to salary, if you invent something beneficial to you, you will be rewarded. "


    "Seriously?"


    When Hu Mo heard this, he couldn''t help but get excited.


    Zhang Xiu said, "nature is true."


    Pang Tong snorted and said in a deep voice: "Taiwei is a noble man. How can he cheat you. This is your chance. It''s up to you to grasp it. "


    Hu Mo immediately said: "the grass people are willing to work for Taiwei, but the rest of the people in the village, the grass people also want to ask. If you are willing to leave, the grass people will take them to work for the Taiwei. Those who don''t want to leave can only stay in the mountains. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll give you two quarters of an hour."


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo turns around and leaves the yard in a hurry. He quickly arranges people to summon the rest to announce Zhang Xiu''s decision. After everyone gathered together, Hu Mo said Zhang Xiu solicited things, without exception, are willing to follow Hu Mo together.


    Hu Mo got a clear answer, went back to his yard, solemnly saluted Zhang Xiu, said: "Taiwei, all the Mohist people in the mountain are willing to work for Taiwei."


    "Very good!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I owe you to be the left servant of the Ministry of industry, who is specially responsible for making signals of flying balls and practicing corresponding operations. All the Mohists in your family are incorporated into the Ministry of industry as independent researchers. "


    "Captain Xie!"


    Hu Mo quickly thanks.


    In fact, he didn''t know what the left Minister of the Ministry of work was, but he agreed first and then thought about other things.

 Chapter 720

    Zhang Xiu immediately made arrangements for the people who can control the flying ball to return to the barracks with the flying ball and Zhang Xiu. The rest of them stayed in the mountains for the time being. When Zhang Xiu went north, he took all of them with him.


    This time, Hu Mo was the first one to return to the army with Zhang Xiu, and there were 95 others, totally 96. Because in each basket, there are two people working together.


    Back at the camp, Zhang Xiu arranged for people to send a batch of money, food and meat to the place where the Mohist children gathered, and then arranged for Hu Mo and other 96 people separately.


    After all this, the army continued to set out.


    At night, it''s dark.


    When the army stops, Zhang Xiu calls Pang Tong and Sima Yi together again to discuss the use of the flying ball.


    Although Sima Yi knew that there were flying kites in the ancient books, he still had a certain skepticism about the flying ball. He said in a deep voice: "Lord, it''s not easy to say that he was humble in the Mohist residence before. But is this flying ball OK? "


    "You can do it!"


    Zhang Xiuding replied.


    Sima Yi said, "after all, I haven''t tried!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "when you arrive at baishuiguan, you will know. But now, we have to consider how to use the flying ball to attack baishuiguan. I don''t think much of the use of flying balls to transport soldiers into the pass. Because there is Zhang Ren''s army in baishuiguan. With Zhang Ren''s army here, a few of our soldiers may not be able to win. "


    "It is!"


    Pang Tong nodded with approval.


    After thinking about it for a while, he said, "in fact, there is a proposal for humble position."


    Zhang xiudao: "what suggestion?"


    Pang Tong replied: "use these 43 flying balls to drop cupping pots into the pass. Put the fire oil into pottery pots one by one, seal them and then block them with hay soaked in fire oil. After lighting them, throw them from high in the air and throw them into Zhang Ren''s camp. "


    "To determine Zhang Ren''s camp, we can choose to operate at night."


    "At night, it''s not just baishuiguan that lights the torch. Besides, there must be torches burning in Zhang Ren''s camp. In this way, it is very easy to determine the location. "


    "There are countless tents in the camp."


    "After the cupping pot was thrown down, the fire oil diffused. Once ignited, the entire camp will turn into a sea of fire. At that time, Zhang Ren''s army can withdraw, but it will also be in chaos. "


    Pang Tong said: "take this opportunity to attack baishuiguan immediately. Without Zhang Ren, who had been rescued by the army, he would not be able to defend baishuiguan, and he would surely be defeated. "


    "Wonderful, really wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of smile. He agreed with Pang Tong''s suggestion.


    In this way, even if Zhang Ren was stationed at baishuiguan, his army would not be able to defend even if it was damaged.


    Sima Yi said: "Hu Mo has said that in order to fly, we must consider the wind direction. Otherwise, once the flying ball takes off, the direction of flying may not be our white water pass, but to our rear, or to the other direction. In a word, we need to find out the wind direction before we can take action. "


    For the flying ball, although Sima Yi has a skeptical attitude, but now, he can only believe it.


    In the present situation, there is no choice.


    Zhang Ren is not a coward.


    It is not easy to defeat Zhang Ren with his strength. So we have to make a surprise attack by flying ball.


    After setting the strategy of sending troops, Zhang Xiu looks forward to it.


    The army went straight south.


    Baishuiguan, located in the northernmost of Guanghan County, is not only the northernmost barrier of Guanghan County, but also the barrier of northern Sichuan. Although Baishui pass is not as dangerous as xiegu pass and Jianmen pass, it is the gateway of Liu Zhang.


    When Zhang Xiu and Zhang Lu were at war in Hanzhong, Liu Zhang transferred Yizhou General Zhang Ren to baishuiguan to defend against Zhang Xiu''s army which might invade south.


    On the tower, in a sunny room.


    Zhang Ren, the chief General of baishuiguan, is in charge of military affairs.


    He led the troops and garrisoned at baishuiguan. Under his command, there were 30000 excellent troops and strong troops. In particular, with the help of baishuiguan, Zhang Xiu''s main road to the south is occupied by geographical advantage.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a thick voice sounded from outside the room.


    Zhang Ren put down his pen and said, "come in!"


    The door crunched open and a middle-aged scholar entered.


    Gu can is Zhang Ren''s aide. When he saw Zhang Ren, he held his fist and saluted, "general, I have the latest war report. Zhang Xiu''s army has entered the territory of Baishui County and is going to kill in the direction of baishuiguan. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang Ren nodded and answered.


    Finally, his eyes flashed.


    After Gu can stood still, he looked like he wanted to talk and stop.


    Zhang Ren said: "what do you want to say, but it''s OK to say it?"


    Gu can said in a deep voice: "general, we have followed you for a long time. We know that you and Zhang Xiu are brothers. If Zhang Xiu spreads the news after he arrives at baishuiguan, I''m afraid it will be bad for you. Isn''t the general going to report this to the governor? If the news spreads in Chengdu, I''m afraid it''s not good for you. "Zhang Ren waved his hand and confidently said, "it''s a small matter, it''s not enough to be afraid. You can rest assured that I have a plan to deal with it. "


    "The general is wise!"


    When Gu can heard Zhang Ren say that he had a strategy, he was also steadfast in his heart and turned around to retreat.


    Zhang Ren continued to sit in his study, dealing with military affairs. After all the military affairs are handled properly, Zhang Ren gets up and leaves the room to go to the barracks in baishuiguan.


    Camp in the army, soldiers are training.


    Zhang Ren led the army to fight, and all his officers and men trusted him.


    It''s not only Zhang Ren''s excellent martial arts, but also because Zhang Ren doesn''t do anything special. He eats and lives with his soldiers. A person who is good at martial arts, knows how to March and fight, and can fight with soldiers is not a weak one.


    Now it''s near June and it''s hot.


    This place in Sichuan is even more stuffy. Before June, soldiers were sweating when they practiced. However, the soldiers under Zhang Ren''s command, originally Yizhou native, are used to such weather and don''t find it difficult.


    Zhang Ren personally led the soldiers to practice, which helped to boost the morale of the soldiers in the army.


    In this way, time passes day by day.


    Just after June, when the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Zhang renzheng was training soldiers. Gu can came to Zhang Wei in a hurry and reported: "general, Zhang Xiu is less than ten miles away from baishuiguan."


    "Here we are at last!"


    Zhang Ren stopped, told the soldiers to continue the training, and transferred another 3000 soldiers to the tower quickly. He came to the tower, wiped his sweat, changed his clothes, and stood on the tower waiting quietly.


    Time goes by little.


    Zhang Ren''s face was full of anxiety.


    As a general at the border, Zhang Ren has enough patience to wait for the arrival of Zhang Xiu.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, to the north of baishuiguan, the sound of horse''s hooves sounded. Trampling on the ground, the whole baishuiguan inside and outside, began to shake up, as if there was a tsunami, surging to baishuiguan.


    A moment later, Zhang Ren saw a black line in the distance.


    This black line is creeping fast.

 Chapter 721

    Speaking late, then fast, but in the blink of an eye, the distance has been narrowed, Zhang Ren''s eyes a contraction. In his eyes, there was a galloping horse.


    This war horse is all white. All the cavalry, fast as lightning, run like lightning. In the twinkling of an eye, a horse neighing, outside the white water pass array stop.


    "Does the white horse follow?"


    In Zhang Ren''s eyes, there was a flash of light.


    He knew that under Zhang Xiu''s command, he set up Baima Yicong alone. He also knew that Zhao Yun, the chief General of Baima Yicong, was Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother. In fact, when Zhang Ren studied with Tong Yuan in his early years, Zhang Xiu was also under Tong Yuan''s door.


    In his early years, Zhang Ren knew Zhang Xiu, but he didn''t know Zhao Yun. Without Zhang Xiu''s relationship, even if Zhao Yun is in front of him, he doesn''t know that Zhao Yun is a younger martial brother.


    With the arrival of Baima Yicong, Zhang Xiu led the conventional army, feiqiang army and Heishan army.


    Tens of thousands of troops, march forward.


    In the crowd, one rode out. Zhang Xiu came to the front of the battle. With a smile on her lips, she looked up to the city floor and said in a loud voice, "elder martial brother, younger martial brother Zhang Xiu, I''m here to visit you."


    WOW!!


    Many soldiers were surprised on the upper floor of baishuiguan.


    Zhang Ren is actually Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother.


    You know, Zhang Xiu is a great Han''s Taiwei. Unexpectedly, their general turned out to be Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother.


    Although the soldiers at baishuiguan were surprised, their morale was not affected. On the contrary, the soldiers'' faces were full of fighting spirit and joy.


    This proves that their general is powerful.


    Zhang Ren looked around and listened to the soldiers'' comments with a smile on his lips.


    He had foreseen the reaction of the soldiers.


    Therefore, Zhang Ren is not worried about his identity exposure. He had a good relationship with the soldiers under his command, and could have entrusted life and death for a long time. He believed in his soldiers, and the same soldiers believed in him.


    This is Zhang Ren''s strength.


    Zhang Ren stood on the tower and said, "Zhang Xiu, are you coming to baishuiguan as a martial brother to talk about the past? Or attack baishuiguan as a great Han Taiwei? "


    "If you come as a younger martial brother, Zhang Ren is very welcome. If you knock as a great Han Taiwei, it''s jackal coming to Yizhou. When brothers come, good wine and good meat serve; when jackals come, only sticks serve. "


    Zhang Ren has sharp eyes.


    His attitude towards Zhang Xiu has long been clear.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    There is praise in the laughter.


    Zhang Ren is not only his elder martial brother, but also the general of Liu Zhang in Yizhou. After laughing, Zhang Xiu said: "elder martial brother, when I come to baishuiguan this time, I will be polite first and then I will be a soldier. 1¡¢ It''s for you and my brother. 2¡¢ It''s to attack the white water pass. "


    Zhang Ren said: "it''s not necessary to talk about the past. If Taiwei wants to attack baishuiguan, Zhang Ren will accompany him to the end. If in peacetime, Zhang rending and his younger martial brother get drunk. On this occasion, please forgive me. When he has leisure, I will go north to Chang''an and get drunk with you. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "unexpectedly, elder martial brother is so eloquent. I just don''t know how elder martial brother will keep the baishuiguan pass under our troops


    Zhang Ren said: "you just attack."


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t worry, elder martial brother. My attack is tonight. You have to be careful. "


    On the way here, Zhang Xiu has decided the time of action, just this night. In today''s weather, the moon is like a disk at night, the sky is vast, and the moon is falling, so you can see clearly the situation at night.


    Not only that, there is a wind tonight. It''s the south wind. It''s just what the flying ball needs.


    Night is the most conducive to action, so Zhang Xiu chose night.


    "Withdraw


    He gave orders for his troops to withdraw.


    The army retreated, leaving a stunned Zhang Ren. Zhang Xiu wants to capture baishuiguan, but she also says to attack at night. Is it possible? Such words made Zhang Ren suspicious.


    He is now stationed at baishuiguan.


    In the checkpoint, Zhang Renbing strong horse strong, have enough army defense, defense equipment are ready. Under this premise, even if Zhang Xiu had tens of thousands of troops, it was impossible to break the white water pass.


    Zhang Ren looked at Gu can and said: "Sir, Zhang Xiu is mystifying. You say, how can Zhang Xiu attack baishuiguan?"


    Gu can shook his head and replied, "Zhang Xiu has always been very meaningful in her work. Especially Zhang Xiu attacked xiegu pass and won easily. Zhang Xiu won easily when she attacked Hanzhong. This person is hard to deal with. Since he said that he would attack baishuiguan at night, he would certainly attack. We just need to be prepared. "


    Zhang Ren laughed and joked: "Sir, this is nonsense."


    Gu can said: "the humble position is not a worm in Zhang Xiu''s stomach. I can''t guess his intention. But the Lord and Zhang Xiu are brothers. Can''t you understand Zhang Xiu''s mind? "


    "I can''t guess!"


    Zhang Ren looked at the direction of Zhang Xiu''s retreat and said: "today''s Zhang Xiu is in great contrast with the one I knew in the past. Even, I don''t know. "Gu can said, "what''s the contrast?"


    Zhang Ren''s eyes narrowed, and there was a look of remembrance in his eyes. He said slowly: "Zhang Xiu of the past, when he was studying arts with me under the master''s door, his temperament was extremely irritable."


    "Once upon a time, he talked straight and straight, and his mind was easy to figure out. Even what he thinks will be on his face, not in his heart. "


    "But Zhang Xiu, who is talking to me today, is neither humble nor overbearing in her speech and manner, and has a great bearing."


    "This man is not simple!"


    "I didn''t expect that he would change so much after so many years."


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "what surprised me most was that he had made such a big name during his years in Guanzhong. He was already a great Han''s Taiwei, and even I could only look up to him."


    Gu can said: "general, since this is the case, we can only take one step at a time. First prepare for the defense at night, and then wait for Zhang Xiu to attack after dark. "


    "Only so!"


    Zhang Ren nodded and answered.


    In his heart, in fact, he wanted to fight with Zhang Xiu, and even wanted to compete with her.


    He is the first disciple of Tongyuan and the first one to come out of the mountain. As a senior brother, Zhang Ren should be the most powerful, so when he saw Zhang Xiu, he wanted to prove himself.


    However, Zhang Ren did not show it. Zhang Ren turns around and returns to the pass. First, he gives orders to the soldiers in the army. He orders the soldiers under his command to sleep in peace at night and not to take off their clothes.


    Sleeping in peace is the only way to act immediately.


    Zhang Ren sent in the chief General of the army and ordered him to carefully work out the defense matters at night. Zhang Ren left the camp and went back to the pass again to inspect the defense measures.


    All ready, Zhang Ren quietly waiting for the arrival of the evening.

 Chapter 722

    Zhang Xiu military camp, in the camp.


    Hu Mo and other 96 people are already ready. During this period of time, they had meat in the barracks. They ate well and dressed warm. They had meat one by one. Not only that, they practiced with the soldiers, so they were much stronger.


    Hu Mo and others are looking forward to making contributions.


    They don''t want to be rubbish.


    Flying ball in the army, in the eyes of all soldiers, this is extremely strange.


    It''s impossible to lift off.


    Many soldiers point fingers at Hu Mo and others and look down upon them. Just like this, Hu Mo and the rest of the Mohist people are biting their teeth and holding back the strange eyes of everyone.


    In this case, they must make contributions. Only in this way can we prove ourselves and solve Zhang Ren''s problem.


    In the evening, the night deepened.


    Hu Mo and others came to the school field, but now, there is no south wind, it is still the northeast wind.


    It''s not going to work in this direction.


    It must be southerly, or even southeasterly, and the general direction must be southward in order to succeed. Otherwise, once the flying ball takes off, all of them turn around and retreat towards Hanzhong, it will be useless.


    Hu Mo waited quietly.


    On his face, there was obviously a trace of anxiety.


    Because the wind is not right.


    From time to time, Hu Mo looked at the flag standing in the air in the school yard. As long as the direction changes, the direction of Dagang will also change, and he can order action.


    In the waiting of Hu Mo and others, the sky is completely dark.


    A torch, burn.


    The burning torch dispels the darkness in the camp, and there are more stars in the sky. The bright moonlight makes the sky bright.


    At this time, Hu Mo ordered the ignition, one by one in the flying ball, with the burning of coal and stone, the hot gas filled, and the flying ball gradually inflated. After the flying ball lifted off, there was a rope hook hanging on the wooden pile on the ground. Even if all the flying balls go up and stay in the air.


    Hu Mo is still waiting anxiously.


    The wind is still the same.


    At this time, a sound of footwork came from the gate of the school yard.


    But Zhang Xiu came with people, accompanied by not only Sima Yi and Pang Tong, but also Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun and Sha Moke. All the civil and military generals in the army gathered here. Looking at the flying balls one by one, I was shocked.


    Before that, many people didn''t see the flying ball and doubted whether they could fly.


    But now, I see.


    Zhao Yun gulp a, swallow a mouthful of saliva, zhengse way: "not simple, this weapon is really not simple."


    Shamoko rubbed his hands and said, "it''s powerful. It''s really powerful. I don''t know what it''s like to be in the air after flying. I want to have a try. "


    One after another, they began to speak.


    There was a look of shock and surprise in everyone''s eyes.


    "The wind has changed!"


    All of a sudden, a soldier called out.


    At this time, the wind direction has become southerly, which is conducive to the flying ball heading south to baishuiguan. As long as the flying ball reaches the sky above baishuiguan, it can drop the cupping pot and destroy Zhang Ren''s army.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd, passing a solemn look in her eyes, and said: "this time, it''s your first time to use a flying ball to fight. This battle is extremely important. "


    "Remember, you can''t drop too much."


    "Otherwise, once you are hit by a bow and arrow, the flying ball leaks air, and you can''t hover in the air, you will fall down. Even if you don''t fall to death, you will fall into Zhang Ren''s hands."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I hope that no matter what the situation is, everyone will leave well and come back safely."


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo and others, Qi Qi answered.


    Every heart is solemn. Each of them had enough clay jars in their flying basket filled with fire oil, and their seals were stuffed with rotten cloth and hay soaked with fire oil.


    After being thrown down in this way, it will not extinguish easily and can ignite quickly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "take action!"


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo was ordered to greet the people under his command and quickly boarded the flying ball basket. No matter Hu Mo or other people, the expression on his face is quite solemn.


    It''s not the first time they''ve operated a flying ball, it''s not the first time they''ve flown. But this war is of great importance, so each one is carefully controlled.


    As everyone boarded the flyball, they began to retract the rope tied to the stake and then retract the hook.


    Coal and stone are constantly added.


    The fire is burning and growing.


    One by one, coal and stone are burning, giving off more and more heat. The 43 flying balls led by Hu Mo have been lifted off slowly. After a while, I only saw a little dot and a flying ball like a star shining in the air.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "the whole army is on alert!"At this time, Zhang Xiu''s order was issued, and all the officers and men in the army began to move.


    One by one, gather quickly.


    In a short time, all the soldiers assembled.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu led the army along the official road to the direction of baishuiguan. Zhang Xiu''s marching speed is actually slower than the flying ball. When Zhang Xiu arrived at baishuiguan, Hu Mo and his party had already crossed baishuiguan from the air.


    Zhang Ren is guarding on the city tower. Although he can''t guess what means Zhang Xiu has, he is also careful to deal with it.


    Because he didn''t know what means Zhang Xiu had.


    On the upper floor of baishuiguan, where Zhang Ren is located, there are mangroves, kerosene, etc., all of which are placed neatly.


    Everyone, look solemn.


    Zhang Ren is ready. He wants to defeat Zhang Xiu''s enemies with the strength of the city floor.


    Zhang Ren''s eyes, looking outside the white water pass.


    Zhang Xiu''s army did not attack for the time being, but was still in array.


    Zhang Ren''s eyes looked at Zhang Xiu, but saw that Zhang Xiu did not stare at him, but at the sky. He followed Zhang Xiu''s eyes and saw the fire spots in the sky.


    Because of the distance, Zhang Ren did not pay attention to the real situation.


    Suddenly, Zhang Ren heard the roar.


    One by one, the earthenware pots, burning like fireballs, have begun to fall. With the fall of the pottery pot, Hu Mo and others subconsciously adjusted their strategies, adjusted the firepower of the coal and stone, gradually weakened the burning firepower, and made the flying ball fall a little bit.


    What''s going on?


    Zhang Ren''s heart, panic.


    What kind of attack is this?


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and yelled: "elder martial brother, look at the sky above the tower. My attack has begun."


    After hearing this, Zhang Ren didn''t answer Zhang Xiu. His eyes looked at the place where the fire fell, and he was shocked. One fireball after another fell over the camp.


    And above the fireball, one after another, the flying ball is moving forward slowly. At the same time, all the people in the flying ball, Mohist children, are quickly lighting up the pottery pot and throwing it out.


    "Throw it down, hurry up!"


    Hu Mo yelled, and the people who helped him were constantly lighting the pots and throwing them.


    They''re a little way from the camp.


    But they have already thrown down the pots. According to their experience, if they throw them down ahead of time, the pots can also fall in the camp. Among the more than 40 flying balls, the pottery pot is constantly thrown down, so that the sky is full of fire.


    "Bang Dang!"


    The first tins, they started to fall, and then they broke. In the open fire ignited, the overflow of fire oil, fast burning up, like a fire snake, constantly scurrying.


    Zhang Ren''s camp, blink of an eye, it has been full of fire, or continue to spread rapidly.


    Fire, more and more big.


    The fire is getting fiercer and fiercer.


    Under the fire, the whole camp quickly spread into a sea of fire.


    Zhang Ren clenched his fist and looked at the flying ball, his face was shocked. In his heart, he didn''t understand what it was. But at the moment, he is really in danger, because the army in his camp is completely out of order.


    "Dong! Dong


    The sound of war drums resounded outside the camp.


    Zhang Xiu''s war drum sounded, which made the soldiers blood boiling. One by one, the look on the soldiers'' faces became colder and more aggressive.


    "Attack


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    As the order was given, the army under his command had already launched an attack.

 Chapter 723

    "Kill


    One after another, the cry resounded through the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, straight from the attack. Dense soldiers rushed to the tower of baishuiguan. Its offensive is extremely fierce. For the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, this is their chance to make contributions.


    In particular, there was a fire in the pass, and there was trouble behind Zhang Ren. The soldiers were even more excited and felt that this was an opportunity to do meritorious service.


    Zhang Ren was on the tower with a dignified face.


    What to do?


    How should he choose.


    There are not many soldiers stationed in the garrison building, less than 3000. Zhang Ren''s army was mainly concentrated in the camp. Now there is a fire in the camp, whether it''s food, or the equipment and weapons for guarding the city, all of which are caught in the sea of fire.


    Even the soldiers were in flames. Even if the soldiers can evacuate quickly, the rest of the materials in the sea of fire are difficult to move out, which is the problem.


    Zhang Ren looked outside the city, biting his teeth, his face full of helplessness.


    I can''t keep it!


    I can''t keep such a big white water pass.


    Even though he is now guarding with all his strength, baishuiguan is short of weapons and food, which can not be delivered in a short time. And he tried his best to resist, and he couldn''t wait for the follow-up supplies.


    "Withdraw, withdraw from baishuiguan!"


    Zhang Ren made a decision and gave an order.


    He quickly retreated from Baishui pass with the soldiers on the checkpoint, and then with the soldiers who had been withdrawn from the camp in a mess, he directly retreated and stopped garrisoning.


    As for some soldiers who were caught in a sea of fire and could not escape, Zhang Ren could not manage them. He can''t delay time, because once he delays time, Zhang Xiu''s army will be entangled.


    After all, Zhang Ren has few troops.


    The reason why Zhang Ren dares to fight with Zhang Xiu is that he relies on the geographical advantage of baishuiguan. Now lose this advantage, Zhang Ren will no longer fight, fast retreat.


    Zhang Xiu''s army easily boarded the baishuiguan pass.


    Then, open the gate.


    After Zhang Xiu led the army into the pass, she entered baishuiguan and stationed there. The fire in the camp continues. At this time, the fire was burning and could not be extinguished.


    In this case, Zhang Xiu did not go to put out the fire, can only let it burn.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the checkpoint, and does not pursue Zhang Ren.


    After a period of time, Zhang Ren must have gone far, and Zhang Ren is familiar with the topography of baishuiguan. It is almost impossible to pursue Zhang Ren.


    Instead of this, it''s better not to take charge of Zhang Ren for the time being and control baishuiguan first.


    Baishuiguan, 20 miles south!


    Zhang Ren stopped to rest.


    By this time, it was almost early in the morning, and Zhang Ren''s army was panting and exhausted. The more than 3000 soldiers who had been stationed with Zhang Ren at the checkpoint had not been affected. But many of the soldiers in the camp were injured. Even if they escaped, they were in a mess.


    After counting the loss, Zhang Renqing sighed.


    This time, more than 4000 soldiers under his command were damaged by the fire.


    These people are all in the fire.


    No one survived.


    There are more than 25000 troops around him. But on the faces of the soldiers, there was still a lingering fear. No one thought that the enemy would attack from the sky.


    Zhang Ren looked at Gu can and inquired: "Sir, Zhang Xiu can drive people into the air. It''s incredible. You''ve seen a lot. Do you know anything about it? "


    "I don''t know!"


    Gu can shook his head and said, "I don''t understand this situation


    "Alas


    Zhang Ren said in a deep voice: "it''s really hard to do this. Once Zhang Xiu has such weapons, we will fight against him next time. Even if we retreat to Baishui County in the rear, we will not be able to resist these people by virtue of the city of Baishui County. "


    Gu can thought and said, "general, we have no other way now. In the current situation, we can only return to Baishui County first. With the help of the strength of the county, we can resist again. "


    "Yes


    "Sink to this way, can only nod


    After the two agreed, Zhang Ren''s heart, though nervous, although some fear. But for Zhang Ren, in any case, he would not admit defeat and chose to retreat.


    A fire in baishuiguan lasted for nearly three hours.


    By this time, it was almost dawn.


    In June, the days are long and the nights are short. Early in the morning, there is a touch of fish belly white in the eastern sky. Zhang Xiu wakes up early. He finishes his morning exercise. After eating early, he asks Wang Yue about Hu Mo and others.


    Forty three flying balls, after passing the white water pass, continue to move forward. Zhang Xiu doesn''t know the final landing point, so she has been waiting for Hu Mo and others to withdraw.


    For Zhang Xiu, the appearance of hot air balloons is a great progress in the way of war.


    Since then, the high and solid wall has lost its function.


    He can use the fly to win.This is a strategic weapon.


    Wang yuechen reported: "Lord, we haven''t heard from Hu Mo and others yet. But before that, the LORD had ordered Hu Mo and others to return to baishuiguan as soon as possible. I think they may be on their way back


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a soldier came to the city tower of baishuiguan, came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reported: "Taiwei, Hu Mo led a group of children to ask for a meeting."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The soldier was ordered to turn around and go out, but just after two steps, he heard Zhang Xiu say: "wait a minute!"


    "I will go in person for such a great man."


    He stood up, walked out of the room and waited quietly in the pass. When he saw Hu Mo and others returning, Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face. Each of these people was quite tired, or even embarrassed, but without exception, their faces were filled with joy and excitement.


    They made it!


    They succeeded in capturing baishuiguan.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and asked, "is there any damage in this battle?"


    "No!"


    Hu Mo shook his head and said excitedly: "ninety six people took part in the war, no casualties, all returned. Not only that, we''ve got all the flying balls back. "


    When they returned, they abandoned the gondola. After all, the hanging basket is not conducive to moving, and the hanging basket is easy to make. The main thing is the sphere of the flying ball, which is the most difficult to make.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said directly: "we are not afraid of difficulties and dangers, and we have made great achievements. The 96 people who belong to the flying ball are awarded 100000 yuan each. "


    "Captain Xie!"


    After hearing this, everyone got excited.


    100000 yuan!


    100000 yuan is not a small amount. For them, it is a huge sum of money. They can buy a lot of materials and then make their own favorite objects.


    Among these 96 people, Hu Mo is the leader and the great master of Mohism, but only a few are Hu Mo''s disciples, and the rest are mostly the rest of Mohism.


    Everyone has ideas.


    They love money because they need enough money to make things.


    This is a lovely group of people.


    Zhang Xiu was happy and waved her hand: "you''ve worked hard. Go down and have a rest. After half a day''s rest and lunch, we will continue to march into Baishui County. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo and others have to order, take people down.


    Zhang Xiu returns to the Chinese Army''s big account and informs Zhang Ya about the news of sending troops after lunch. Then Zhang Xiu goes back to the city upstairs of baishuiguan and reads to kill time.

 Chapter 724

    Yizhou, Chengdu.


    As the capital of Yizhou, Chengdu is the political center of Yizhou, where countless dignitaries gather.


    As a herdsman in Yizhou, Liu Zhang is now more than 30 years old. Unfortunately, although Liu Zhang was the governor of the state, in fact, his control over the civilian and military generals was not very strong.


    When Liu Yan was in office, his officials, whether Sergeant Guan or local scholars, did not dare to act rashly. All those who wanted to make trouble were killed by Liu Yan.


    Liu Zhang didn''t have the courage.


    There is no such strength.


    So when Liu Zhang got the news that Zhang Xiu had killed him, he was in a panic. Especially after Fazheng returned, he reported to Liu Zhang the news that Zhang Xiu refused, saying that Zhang Xiu was determined to go south, which made Liu Zhang shiver and speak ill.


    Liu Zhang didn''t dare to delay, so he immediately sent Pang Xi, Huang Quan, FA Zheng, Zhang Song and others to the prefecture to discuss countermeasures.


    Liu Zhang looked around and said, "Fazheng has just returned from Hanzhong. He went to Hanzhong on behalf of his official to make an alliance with Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu refused. Now, Zhang Xiu insists on going south. What do you say to do? "


    When they heard the words, they all looked very nervous.


    Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is not weak. He has been able to compete with Liu Zhang for many years, but he was destroyed in a flash, which shows Zhang Xiu''s strength. Now there is only Liu Zhang left. It can be imagined that Liu Zhang and his subordinates are nervous.


    Seeing that all the people were silent, Liu Zhang looked at Pang Xi and asked, "Pang Xi, what do you think?"


    Pang Xi and Liu Zhang are related by marriage.


    It is powerful.


    What''s more, Pang Xi was good at nurturing scholars, had many disciples, and had great strength.


    Pang Xi said: "in reply to my Lord, Zhang Xiu is very powerful. We are afraid that it will be difficult to resist with our strength alone. He suggested that when Zhang Ren resisted Zhang Xiu''s attack, he sent envoys to Xuchang to ask Cao Cao for help. Only Cao Cao''s troops can solve the current dilemma. "


    Zhang Song said, "Lord, I agree with Pang Xi."


    Zhang song was Liu Zhang''s confidant counselor when he took the post of driving in Yizhou. In the territory of Yizhou, Zhang song also has a strong voice, far more than Fazheng. After all, Zhang Song himself is from Zhangjia, Yizhou.


    Zhang Jia is a big family in Shu county.


    FA is just an outsider. It''s hard to compare with Zhang Song in terms of official positions and contacts. But Fazheng and Zhang Song are also good friends.


    Liu Zhang listened to people''s suggestions, turned his eyes, fell on FA Zheng, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaozhi, what do you think of Zhang Xiu? If you have seen him, you can see the character of Zhang Xiu. "


    Fazheng thought about it and said, "Zhang Xiu is a cunning person. Although she is young, she has great strength. When he enters his army in a humble position, his officers and men will forbid him. He is a good fighter. "


    Fazheng didn''t say how well Zhang Xiu was a courteous corporal, because it was easy to get angry. He didn''t say how good Zhang Xiu was, but only said that Zhang Xiu was insidious and cunning.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a soldier quickly entered. The soldier knelt down on one knee, holding a letter in his hand, and said, "I tell you, general Zhang Ren has an urgent report to send back. Baishuiguan is defeated!"


    When they heard this, they all changed color.


    Liu Zhang quickly asked the soldiers to hand over the letter. He quickly scanned the contents of the letter. After reading it, Liu Zhang''s face changed again and again. He passed on the letter to Zhang song, Pang Xi and others.


    After everyone had finished browsing, Liu Zhang said in a deep voice: "Zhang Ren retreated to the county seat of Baishui County, but according to the information in his letter, the reason why Zhang Xiu was able to conquer was that a flying ball flew through the air, and then dropped a pottery pot on the flying ball to ignite the fire, so that the camp in baishuiguan caught fire. What do you think of this as true or false? "


    In Liu Zhang''s heart, there was some doubt.


    He didn''t think there was a flying ball in the air.


    I don''t think people can fly.


    If people can fly into the sky, how terrible it would be. Therefore, Liu Zhang''s first reaction was that Zhang Ren deliberately found a reason to say that Zhang Xiu was so amazing to cover up the fact of defeat.


    This is Liu Zhang''s suspicion.


    Pang Xi said in a deep voice, "Lord, I believe in Zhang Ren. Among the generals in Yizhou, Zhang Renzhong was courageous and knew military affairs. People like him can''t lie about the military situation. What''s more, the soldiers in Zhang Renjun must know about the situation in baishuiguan. It''s not difficult to find out. Therefore, I don''t think Zhang Xiu will lie about military intelligence. "


    Fazheng said: "I agree with you in your humble position!"


    Zhang song also said: "I also agree with humble position!"


    All the officials supported Zhang Ren, not only because he was a general in the army, but also because he had a good relationship with the people. After listening to all the people''s words, Liu Zhang directly dispelled his doubts about Zhang Ren.


    After a short pause, Liu Zhang said again: "if so, immediately send an order to Zhang Ren, let him sit in Baishui County, and then recruit troops to resist, to stop Zhang Xiu from driving straight in."


    Pang Xi said: "my Lord is wise and wise. Zhang Ren resists Zhang Xiu''s army. There are natural dangers everywhere. It''s not easy to expect Zhang Xiu to go south to Chengdu."


    Liu Zhang nodded, turned his eyes, fell on FA Zheng again and said, "Xiaozhi, you are eloquent. This mission to Xudu falls on you. What do you think of your mission to Xuchang? ""I''ll do it


    Fazheng did not hesitate to respond directly.


    He has no choice.


    Pang Xi, Huang Quan, Zhang Song and others were all highly qualified people, and could not be regarded as envoys. Although he was born in a respectable family, he was a posterity of a famous scholar, but he was only a diplomat.


    Liu Zhang looked at Zhang song again and asked, "Zhang song, do you see the situation in the north now, do you need to reinforce Zhang Ren?"


    After thinking about it, Zhang Song replied, "to my Lord, I think that the best way is to dispatch Lingbao and Liu Ruo to lead 20000 soldiers to JIANMENGUAN to be stationed as the last reinforcements. Once Zhang Ren could not resist in the front line and retreated to Jianmen pass, there were Ling Bao and Liu Ruo as reinforcements. "


    "It works!"


    Liu Zhang nodded in agreement.


    Zhang Song continued: "next, he immediately arranged a messenger to ask the two generals to go north."


    Liu Zhang nodded his head and waved his hand to let the crowd down.


    Zhang Song and Fazheng had a good relationship. After leaving the prefecture, Fazheng went straight to Zhang Song''s house.


    In the study, they sat down.


    Zhang Song looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Xiaozhi, you go to the north to see Zhang Xiu. How is he?"


    FA Zheng said with a smile, "brother ziqiao, I have made it clear when I was in the prefecture


    Zhang song, Biaozi Qiao.


    Although he is ugly, his eyes are poisonous. He stared at Fazheng and said, "your words can deceive Liu Zhang, but they can''t deceive me. Come on, what kind of person is Zhang Xiu? "


    Fazheng restrained his playful look and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is a man who is comfortable, broad-minded, courteous and virtuous. He knows how to make good use of people and uses his weapons like a God, so he can be a hero. Zhang Xiu went south to attack Yizhou. I''m afraid Yizhou can''t keep it. "


    Zhang Song''s eyes narrowed. There was a look of thinking in his eyes.


    Fazheng did not disturb him, so he sat down quietly.


    After half a sound, Zhang Song said: "if so, it''s not necessary to prepare in advance and leave the way behind. Even in advance to arrange people and Zhang Xiu set up a relationship


    Fazheng continued: "when I met Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu once solicited me and asked me to take up the post as the director of Taiwei mansion. But in the end, I chose to refuse. "


    "Oh, what a pity!"


    Zhang Song shook his head, a look of regret, said: "Xiaozhi, you have been under Liu Zhang''s command for many years, that is, you used to be the magistrate of a county, until now, you are just a military officer, there is no future."


    "It''s the master of Taiwei''s mansion. It''s a real power. It''s a close official of Zhang Xiu and a confidant of Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s an opportunity for Zhang Xiu to solicit."


    "You and I know each other well. You know my ambition and I know your talent. In the future, you will not be trapped in Yizhou all the time


    Zhang Song said with regret: "the great opportunity is in front of us. Why don''t we seize it?"


    Fazheng said: "there are two reasons!"


    Zhang Song said: "which two reasons?"


    Fazheng said in a deep voice: "first, my reputation is not obvious. I''m in Yizhou. Although I''m a little famous, in fact, not many people know me, let alone the rest of the world. "


    "Under the command of Zhang Xiu, there are many talented people."


    "These people are either celebrities or people who followed Zhang Xiu very early. I''m not willing to be looked down upon when I directly act as the chief bookkeeper as a minor person. "


    "My plan is to do my best to help Liu Zhang resist Zhang Xiu under Liu Zhang''s command, so that Zhang Xiu and the people under Zhang Xiu can know that there is a person named Fazheng in Yizhou, who is not a man of illusory fame."


    Fazheng continued: "in this way, even if Zhang Xiu is captured after the defeat, when the time comes, I will surrender to Zhang Xiu and serve as the chief of his Taiwei mansion, and no one will say anything."


    After a pause, Fazheng continued: "second, I don''t want to be a second minister."


    "Now, if I take the initiative to submit to Zhang Xiu, I will betray Liu Zhang. It''s a label that can''t be washed off in my life. It will be criticized and stabbed in the spine. "


    "After Liu Zhang''s defeat, I turned to Zhang Xiu. I was not a second minister, but a good bird who chose to live. Although they all surrender, there is a big difference between them. "


    FA Zhengdao said, "these two reasons are why I didn''t surrender."


    After hearing this, Zhang Song looked thoughtful and said, "what Xiaozhi said is very true. Your words also remind me. Next, learn from you for your brother, and go all out at the critical moment of Yizhou. "


    As a matter of fact, it would be better if we didn''t do our best to resist the law. If you can''t stop it, it''s OK. "


    Zhang Song arched his hand and said, "the words of filial piety are like the morning bell and the evening drum, which make people feel happy."


    FA Zhengdao said: "brother ziqiao, I praise you so much!"


    After a pause, Fazheng got up and said, "I have a lot of things to deal with. I have to go back to the government immediately. After packing my bags, I will leave Chengdu and go to Bajun. I will go to Jingzhou and strive to go to Xuchang as soon as possible. I will be Cao Cao for a while."Zhang Song stood up and said, "Yuxiong is here. I wish you success."


    "Thank you very much."


    Fazheng said thanks and left.


    Zhang Song''s eyes narrowed slightly, his brain turned quickly, thinking about the previous dialogue with Fazheng. The relationship between him and Fazheng is excellent. From Fazheng''s speech and behavior, we can see that Fazheng highly praised Zhang Xiu.


    However, due to the situation, Fazheng had to work for Liu Zhang.


    This is to seek political power in its place!


    Zhang Song clenched his fist and made up his mind. This time and Zhang Xiu a war, must seize the opportunity, well performance is.

 Chapter 725

    Zhang Xiu''s army went south, because when Zhang Ren retreated, he dispatched troops and demobilized the people along the way, so there was no resistance along the way, and the South was very smooth.


    The army marched into Baishui County. When the army arrived in Baishui County, Zhang Xiu got the news from the royal guards and set up crossbows on the city floor of Baishui County.


    As long as the flying ball is close, the crossbow will be projected on the tower.


    The crossbow has a long range, great power and strong penetration, which is enough to shoot hundreds of steps. Under this premise, Zhang Xiu''s intention to use the flying ball to get close to Baishui County and project the cupping pot again is broken.


    Because Zhang Xiu now has only 43 flying balls, and losing one is a big loss.


    This is beyond Zhang Xiu''s endurance.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Baishui County, the army set out outside the north gate of Baishui County. He galloped forward, his eyes fell on the tower, and said: "elder martial brother, younger martial brother, I''m here again."


    Zhang Ren said: "what will Taiwei say again?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "last time, I said to break the white water pass at night, so I broke the white water pass. Now, I have to say that you can''t keep Baishui County. Elder martial brother, do you plan to quit Baishui County? "


    Zhang Ren said: "I haven''t fought before. How can I know? It is not known who will win


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in the past, my elder martial brother and I studied under the teacher''s door. Up to now, it has not been seen for many years. I don''t know how well my elder martial brother''s hundred birds shoot the Phoenix? Why don''t you come out and compete with me? "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Ren said directly: "the courage of every man is not enough to be complacent. Even though I''m better than you, I don''t want to be brave. Now I am mainly stationed in Baishui County. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "elder martial brother, don''t worry. As long as you fight with me, I swear to heaven that I will never attack the county. What do you think, elder martial brother? "


    Zhang Ren''s eyes narrowed.


    Zhang Xiu is determined to fight.


    But Zhang Ren''s heart, but also worried, if he went out of the city war, in the calculation of Zhang Xiu?


    Zhang Xiu continued: "elder martial brother, I have already made an oath to heaven, elder martial brother still doesn''t believe it? Or the elder martial brother did not dare to fight. Alas, I said I would not let the soldiers attack Baishui County, but my elder martial brother still dare not fight. Is it true that my elder martial brother is afraid of me? "


    He took this opportunity to attack Zhang Ren and weaken his morale in the army.


    Zhang Ren won the trust of the soldiers.


    Under this premise, Zhang Xiu constantly attacks Zhang Ren, and if Zhang Ren does not fight back, Zhang Ren''s soldiers will be filled with righteous indignation, and they are likely to fight a world war.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    If Zhang Ren goes out of the city, Zhang Xiu can choose to fight for Zhang Ren.


    In a word, Zhang Xiu is not at a loss.


    Gu can stood next to Zhang Ren and said in a deep voice: "general, Zhang Xiu is fighting. It''s clear that he is challenging you. If we don''t fight, I''m afraid the soldiers in the army will have a lot of discussions. In the long run, it will affect the morale of the army. "


    Zhang Ren narrowed his eyes and said, "I''d like to see how powerful he is. In the past, under the teacher''s door, Zhang Xiu has always been my follower. Her martial arts is not very good. Now, I see how he is. "


    Gu can said: "general, be careful!"


    Zhang Ren said, "don''t worry. If I lose, I will withdraw immediately."


    He turned and went down from the tower. Soon, the gate creaked open and the suspension bridge lowered. Zhang Ren rode out with a big gun in his hand. Zhang''s armor is mainly red. The horse on his hip is black.


    Black and red interweave, with a strong sense of killing.


    With a big gun in hand, Zhang said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, in the past, you didn''t learn much martial arts under the teacher''s door. Today, when you fight with me, it''s self humiliation. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "when I was a child, my elder martial brother beat me in every contest with me. But I used to be, and I am today, but there are very different. Elder martial brother, you will lose today. "


    "Cut the crap!"


    Zhang Yiyi raised his spear, kicked the horse in his crotch and drove the horse out.


    Zhang Xiu also went up.


    Both of them are brothers under Tong Yuan''s family. Their martial arts are inherited from one person. Their shooting skills are not much different. Now when the two people fight, it is the most fierce fight. The guns collide, and there is a fierce crash.


    Zhang Ren and Zhang xiuchu face a little excited. After fighting with Zhang Xiu, he found that the strength of Zhang Xiu''s hand was weaker, so he was excited.


    This is the chance to capture Zhang Xiu alive.


    If Zhang Xiu is captured alive, the battle will be ended. Even if not captured alive, as long as we defeat Zhang Xiu and win the war, we can also stimulate morale.


    No matter what, it''s cost-effective.


    Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren fight, but it''s funny.


    He only used less than 80% of the strength, which has been maintained, to fight with Zhang Ren. Both of them showed their attainments in shooting.


    Zhao Yun rode his horse and stood up with a smile on his face. He is a great master of martial arts, and he has also dealt with Zhang Xiu. Only when he knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful, can he know that Zhang Xiu has converged.Under this premise, Zhang Xiu is ready to win Zhang Ren.


    Otherwise, it will not show weakness.


    On the city floor of baishuiguan, the soldiers were staring at the battle field, and suddenly they cried out loudly.


    "The general will win!"


    "The general will win!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the cries are constantly echoing in the air, resounding inside and outside the city.


    Zhang Ren heard the words of the soldiers and roared: "Zhang Xiu, you were not my opponent in the past. Today''s you are still not my opponent. Elder martial brother, after all, is elder martial brother. I''m the eldest disciple of the teacher. At least, I''ll live a few more years and eat more than you. "


    Now Zhang Ren is quite confident.


    "Whew!"


    The big gun is like a poisonous snake spitting out a message and stabbing out like lightning.


    The shot was quick and quick, and in a twinkling of an eye it reached Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu a side body dodges, avoids directly. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Ren''s shot is not in, will immediately withdraw, in order to facilitate defense.


    But after a fight just now, Zhang Ren thought that his strength was stronger. He no longer took up the gun defense, but instead took a big shot and swept out.


    One shot is like autumn wind sweeping leaves.


    This sweeping is not as powerful as the vertical falling from the air, but Zhang renben is a fierce general, and his strength is not weak. Once this gun falls on Zhang Xiu''s ribs, it is enough to break them.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient and has a smile on her lips.


    Here''s the chance!


    Previous Zhang Ren, both offensive and defensive, even if Zhang Xiu attack, Zhang Ren can also defend, and then take advantage of the situation to withdraw to the city. But at this moment, Zhang changed his previous strategy of both offensive and defensive, and it was different.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun suddenly starts to work. The barrel of the gun is lifted and lifted to the left.


    "Dang!"


    Two gun impact, the next moment, Zhang Xiu force a stir, peiran power surge out. The sudden force stirred Zhang Ren''s palm, almost unable to hold the gun.


    Zhang Ren immediately started to hold the gun.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu took back the overlord gun in her hand. The barrel of the gun turned in the air, crossed an arc and fell from the air. The shot fell like a flash in the sky.


    Zhang Ren quickly raised his gun.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of impact, again.


    Under the power of this blow, Zhang Ren''s face changed greatly. Zhang Ren was caught off guard and couldn''t resist the fierce force. He just felt that his hand holding the gun was numb, and the gun in his hand was constantly shaking. Even his arms were a little sore.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is too strong.


    Zhang Ren breathed a sigh of relief, just slowed down, but occasionally, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun rotated again and smashed down. Under the rapid speed, Zhang Ren still can not avoid, can only meet again.


    "When! When! "


    The sound of impact, one after another.


    Continuous impact sound sounded, Zhang Xiu as if tireless, constantly swing a gun down.


    One shot after another, one move is better than another.


    Every move is overwhelming.


    Every move can be stopped by Reebok.


    Zhang Ren wants to leave, but Zhang Xiu''s moves are continuous. Under the attack of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ren can''t leave. It''s only when Zhang Xiu stops changing her moves that she has a chance to leave.

 Chapter 726

    "Dang! Dang


    The sound of impact is still ringing.


    Zhang Ren didn''t know how many spears Zhang Xiu had to bear. In fact, when he was hit by Zhang Xiu''s third shot, his palms were torn and his viscera were even more shocked.


    But from the beginning to the end, Zhang Ren is biting his teeth and sticking to it. Even though the whole palm was covered with blood, even though he felt that the palm was torn, and even his arms were bent, Zhang Ren kept silent and supported him from beginning to end.


    That firm belief made Zhang never relax at any moment.


    Zhang Xiu looks in the eye, admires Zhang Ren in the heart at the same time, is actually unceasingly swings the gun to smash.


    This is the greatest respect for Zhang Ren.


    Go all out!


    No mercy!


    When Zhang Xiu''s 11th gun fell, his overlord gun swept through the air, leaving only an arc. In the twinkling of an eye, Overlord gun to Zhang Ren''s head, hard fall.


    "Dang!"


    Zhang Ren countered with a gun.


    At the moment of the sound of the impact, Zhang Ren couldn''t restrain his surging blood, and a mouthful of fresh blood spewed out.


    The big gun in my hand was knocked out.


    The fallen overlord gun, keep going down.


    "Bang!"


    The barrel of the gun hit Zhang Ren''s shoulder. In a flash, Zhang Ren snorted and fell off the horse. Zhang Xiu turned over and dismounted, stood beside Zhang Ren and said, "elder martial brother, you are defeated!"


    "You, you..."


    Zhang Ren opened his mouth one after another and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    His face was like gold paper. He was miserable. Zhang Xiu and fight, his viscera, are seriously injured. It''s not only the crack of the tiger''s mouth, but also the deep internal injury.


    His arms, his guts, were under a tremendous impact.


    At this moment, the soldiers on the city floor of Baishui County were full of horror.


    No one thought that Zhang Ren was defeated.


    The defeat was so simple.


    At the beginning, Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu fought each other, and the two sides were evenly matched. But in the twinkling of an eye, it changed. Zhang Ren was beaten by Zhang Xiu, directly defeated, and even vomited blood.


    Such a scene is shocking.


    In the eyes of the soldiers in the army, Zhang Ren is already the God of war, impregnable and invincible. But in front of her, Zhang Xiu is more powerful and frightening than Zhang Ren.


    Zhang Ren eased his breath and said in a deep voice: "your strength, why do you suddenly become so powerful?"


    Zhang Xiu explained: "elder martial brother, if I don''t hide myself, will you go from being on guard at the beginning, to gradually going all out, and finally, desperate to capture or take me alive?"


    Zhang Ren said: "no!"


    Zhang Xiu shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile: "yes, if you don''t go all out, I won''t completely suppress your chance, and there won''t be any chance that you can''t escape. All this is in my calculation. To be sure, as soon as I came up, I exposed all my strength. If you see no enemy, you will retreat. Elder martial brother, right? "


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Ren heard the speech and sighed.


    It''s a trick!


    Or by Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    Zhang Ren looked up at the upper floor of Baishui County and yelled, "Gu can, don''t worry about me, stick to it."


    Gu can is on the tower, hearing Zhang Ren''s voice, frowning. Because in the current situation, it is the best way to defend Baishui County.


    But sticking to it means that Zhang Ren''s life can''t be taken into account. Even in Baishui County, without Zhang Ren, the soldiers on the tower may not be able to really hold on.


    That''s the problem.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t take charge of Zhang Ren, he looks up to the city floor and says in a loud voice: "Zhang Ren is captured. Let''s open the gate of Baishui County, otherwise Zhang Ren''s life will be lost."


    When Gu can heard this, he was very anxious.


    He bit his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, general is your elder martial brother. Are you going to kill your own elder martial brother? "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "when I arrived at baishuiguan, my elder martial brother Zhang Ren asked me whether I came to Yizhou as a martial brother or as a Taiwei. At that time, I said I would come as a Taiwei. I''m Tai Wei of Han Dynasty. He''s a general of Yizhou. So he chose to fight me to the death. Since the two sides are hostile, how can we reconsider the friendship between the two brothers? "


    Gu can frowns and is helpless. For a moment, he doesn''t know how to make a choice.


    Gu can is Zhang Ren''s staff.


    Zhang Ren is even more grateful to Gu can. Gu can''s family background is very common. He is a poor family. In Yizhou, there is no chance for him to come out.


    It was Zhang Ren who recruited Gu can so that he could show his strong points, support his family and not worry about food and clothing.


    All this is brought by Zhang Ren.


    Gu can is not easy to make a decision, turned to look at the city upstairs, the soldiers guarding the city, said: "under the current situation, the general asked me to lead you to defend. But when it comes to the general''s life, I can''t make a decision on my own. ""Now, I ask you, do you want to die or surrender?"


    "If you stick to it, fight to the end."


    "If you surrender, open the gate."


    Gu can said: "you make your own choices. Those who don''t want to fight to the death, those who want to surrender, stay where you are. Those who are willing to fight to the death, all stand to the right. If there are many people who choose which one, we will choose which one. Do you understand? "


    "I understand!"


    All of us should go down together.


    They are all very clear about the current situation.


    Gu can said: "since we all understand, let''s make a choice. Hurry up. We don''t have a chance to waste time. "


    One by one, the soldiers stood still. Because no one took the lead, leading to a good half, no one stood up. At the end of the day, there were no more than a hundred people in such a large army who stood up and said they were willing to fight to the death.


    The result is self-evident.


    Gu can said: "since we all have a decision, I don''t need to say more. Let''s go. Let''s open the gate and welcome Zhang Xiu''s army into the city. We choose to surrender


    Soldiers have to be ordered to carry out orders.


    After a while, the gate creaked open and the suspension bridge slowly lowered. The soldiers in the city went out of the city gate, threw away their weapons outside the city and knelt down.


    Zhang Ren looked at this scene, angry eyes canthus to crack, roared: "Gu can, you bastard, you bastard!"


    Gu can knelt on the ground and said nothing.


    When it comes to Zhang Ren''s life, his own heart tends to surrender.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, a smile rose from the corner of her mouth. With a wave of his hand, his soldiers quickly stepped forward and detained all the soldiers under Zhang Ren''s command. After all this, the army began to enter the city.


    The army entered the city, controlled the four gates of Baishui County, and temporarily stationed in Baishui County. After conquering Baishui County, Zhang Xiu had a foothold in Baishui County.


    Attack Yizhou, there is a bridgehead.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    After Zhang Xiu deals with the government affairs reported, she arranges for someone to bring Zhang Ren in.

 Chapter 727

    Zhang Ren''s injury has been treated by a doctor and he has taken medicine. It''s just that his internal organs were injured and he couldn''t recover in a short time. In particular, the wounds of other palms are extremely large. Dark red wound, bloody, very frightening.


    Zhang Ren was not shackled or detained, and even entered with the help of soldiers. After he saw Zhang Xiu, he didn''t give him a good face, with a solemn look.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "elder martial brother, why are you still angry with me?"


    Zhang Ren said: "at this time, I am a prisoner Zhang Ren, a general of Yizhou, not a senior brother of Taiwei. Let''s talk about friendship later. Before the hostility is eased, our brotherhood is always behind us. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed.


    Zhang Ren is too serious.


    But for Zhang Xiu, it is Zhang Ren who insists on the bottom line that Zhang Xiu needs. If Yang Song gives money to rebel like that, Zhang Xiu disdains to solicit, and even kills Zhang Ren when fighting.


    Zhang xiudao said: "elder martial brother, Liu Zhang''s strength is not very good, and he has no ability, no wrist. If you follow Liu Zhang, in the end, it will be nothing. Elder martial brother, are you willing to submit to me? "


    "No


    Zhang Ren shook his head and flatly refused.


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Xiu sighed and said, "elder martial brother, why are you doing this?"


    Zhang Ren raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "only if you are a man, can you despise him and get the important task entrusted by the Lord. How can you betray him?"


    Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes and said, "how is Liu Zhang better than me in governing the country?"


    "Not as well!"


    Zhang Ren shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "on March, how is Liu Zhang better than me?"


    Zhang Ren said: "far from it!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you and I have brotherhood. We are brothers of the same school. Is the relationship between Liu Zhang and you, elder martial brother, better than that between you and me? "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Ren shook his head again.


    However, his eyes are extremely sharp, throwing a voice: "between you and me, is private. But Liu Zhang was kind to me. When it comes to righteousness, I can''t listen to you. Once I submit to you, what do people think of me? How can I stand in the world


    Speaking of this, Zhang Ren stopped for a moment, then continued: "younger martial brother, it''s so far, there''s nothing to say. I can''t surrender. Kill me. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    He wanted to recruit Zhang Ren, but he didn''t expect that Zhang Ren was so stubborn that he didn''t give him the chance to recruit. Under this premise, Zhang Xiu could not succeed at all.


    He is not willing to kill Zhang Ren.


    On the one hand, Zhang Ren is his elder martial brother, the most intimate relationship. Once Zhang Ren is demoted, Zhang Ren will serve him completely.


    On the other hand, Zhang Ren has enough talent.


    What should we do?


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, thinking quickly. All of a sudden, Zhang Xiu had a plan in mind, and he said, "it''s all right, elder martial brother, if you don''t want to be submissive, just let it go. I don''t want to force you."


    Zhang Ren said: "thank you, younger martial brother!"


    At this moment, Zhang Ren was also relieved.


    In his opinion, only in this way can he complete his solar term. Even though he and Zhang Xiu are brothers of the same school, loyalty and filial piety are the most important. He can only put the relationship with Zhang Xiu at the back.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    A soldier enters and bows.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take my elder martial brother to the place where his soldiers are in custody. Send me another order to release Zhang Ren and all his soldiers. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers responded directly.


    When Zhang Ren heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes and looked shocked.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to release him.


    It''s just amazing.


    No matter what, Zhang Ren never thought that such a thing would happen. Even because Zhang Xiu did so, it led to Zhang Ren himself, but also owed Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Renshen took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement and asked, "Taiwei Zhang, do you really want to release me?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Zhang Ren said in a deep voice: "you have released me, but I, Zhang Ren, will not lead you. When I leave Baishui County and go south to Jiameng County, I''m bound to resist your army again. You really want to release me. "


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answers again.


    He didn''t have much to say, which made Zhang Ren feel uncomfortable.


    He didn''t want to be ungrateful.


    Instead of being sandwiched between Liu Zhang and Zhang Xiu, it''s better to die, but Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill him.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and the soldier left with Zhang Ren. Soon after, some soldiers reported that Zhang Ren had left with his soldiers. When Pang Tong and Sima Yi got the news, they came in a hurry.Pang Tong looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Lord, I heard from the soldiers that you personally ordered Zhang Ren to be released. Besides, he released Zhang Ren''s army


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Pang Tong said: "the Lord deliberately released Zhang Ren. Is he ready to play hard to get?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhang Ren would rather die than surrender. There is no way to take him for the time being. Now everyone knows the relationship between Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu. I will release him and let him lead the soldiers back. As long as the news comes out, Liu Zhang will be suspicious. "


    "Even if Liu Zhang believes in Zhang Ren, Liu Zhang knows that there will be something wrong with my relationship with Zhang Ren."


    "It''s an opportunity for dissension."


    "Next, immediately arrange the royal guards to Chengdu to spread the news. In this way, Liu Zhang may change his general. As long as Liu Zhang replaced the general in Jiameng county and stopped using Zhang Ren, he would have the opportunity to recruit Zhang Ren. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition, after Zhang Ren is replaced, it will be easier to deal with Liu Zhang''s army."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the more quickly Wang entered.


    After Wang Yue stood and saluted, he took out a letter and handed it to Zhang Xiu, saying: "Lord, this news is the latest one sent back."


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter, scanned it quickly, and said with a smile, "it''s about the mobilization of Liu Zhang''s army. Liu Zhang dispatched two generals, Lingbao and Liu Ruo, and led 20000 troops to settle in Jianmen pass. When Liu Zhang did this, he was on guard against Zhang Ren. In case Zhang Ren can''t resist, Liu Ruo and Ling Bao can go north and quickly resist US. "


    Pang Tong said, "what the LORD said is true."


    After a pause, Pang Tong looked at Wang Yue and said, "prince, have you heard from Liu Ruo and Ling Bao?"


    "Yes!"


    Wang Yue nodded and said, "Lingbao and Liu Ruo, according to the information inquired by the royal guards, are all Chinese talents. The two men''s ability to lead soldiers to fight is not particularly strong. Compared with Zhang Ren, it is much more difficult to deal with them. "


    Pang Tong''s eyes flashed a fine light, once again said: "these two people, what are the obvious shortcomings?"


    Wang Yue said: "Ling Bao is a violent and radical character, Liu Ruo is self willed and self righteous, and Liu Ruo is a drinker."


    Pang Tong turned to Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "Congratulations, Lord. With these two people, it''s not difficult to break Liu Zhang''s army. But in the meantime, we need news fermentation. When Zhang Ren was defeated and captured, the news that he was finally withdrawn came to Chengdu. Liu Zhang is likely to transfer Zhang Ren, and then let Liu Ruo and Ling Bao go to the front line. Then we will win


    Sima Yi echoed: "what Pang Shangshu said is true. Now Zhang Ren does not surrender. He is determined to consider for Liu Zhang. But after Liu Zhang alienated Zhang Ren, he would remember the Lord''s kindness. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know that. The reason why Zhang Ren was allowed to leave with the army was to completely make Zhang Ren give up his heart and then submit to me. Now, I have a lot of patience. If the order goes on, the army will rest in Baishui County for two days. Then, we set out again and headed south to jiamengguan. At that time, we will wait for Liu Ruo and Ling Bao to come. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi responded and turned to arrange.

 Chapter 728

    Although Fazheng is a scholar, he is not a man without the strength to bind a chicken. He is also good at riding and shooting, and his riding skill is quite exquisite. After he left Chengdu, he rushed all the way. Even the fastest time was 300 Li a day.


    This is the limit of normality.


    All this is to arrive at Xuchang, Yanzhou as soon as possible.


    It was Fazheng''s rush that made him leave Yizhou and enter Nanyang County in a short time. He didn''t linger in Nanyang County. He galloped all the way to Yanzhou.


    After arriving in Yanzhou, he went straight to Xuchang.


    At this time, Fazheng was so dusty that he was much thinner.


    Indeed, it was a very hard journey.


    When Fazheng arrived in Xuchang City, he found an inn, washed, changed his robes and beard. Although his whole body is still thin, but give people the feeling, their own temperament has come out, is the old elegant childe.


    Fazheng came to Sikong''s house and handed over the famous thorn. After a short time, he was led into the hall by the attendant.


    In the hall, Cao Cao sat on the throne, waiting for Fazheng to come.


    Today, Cao Cao has completely destroyed Yuan Shu, so his focus is on Yuzhou, arranging soldiers to encroach on Liu Bei''s power, intending to completely annex Liu Bei. However, such a war did not require Cao Cao''s personal visit. He stayed in Xudu to stabilize the situation in the DPRK.


    Cao Cao was surprised by Fazheng''s arrival, so he came to see Liu Zhang''s envoy for the first time. Seeing Fazheng, Cao Cao appreciated him. Although the statement is thin, but angular, eyes bright, give people a very spiritual feeling.


    This is the essence of Fazheng.


    After Fazheng stood still, he arched his hand and said, "under the command of Liu Zhang, Yizhou mu, Fazheng, a military officer, meets Sikong."


    "Sit down!"


    Cao Cao waved his hand.


    Immediately, someone presented the seat. Fazheng looked calm, lifted his robe and sat down.


    Cao Cao, with a look of banter in his eyes, took the lead in saying: "Fa Zheng, you are so thin. Is it because of the lack of food and meat in Yizhou that you can''t eat enough to make you so thin?"


    "Si Kong Miao!"


    Fazheng shook his head and answered.


    Cao Cao said, "Oh, you said I was wrong. So what''s the reason? "


    Fazheng sighed: "the original me, on the basis of now, should still weigh 15.6 Jin. The reason why they are so thin is that they are in a hurry all the way from Chengdu. At the fastest time, they travel 300 Li a day. Now my inner thigh, continue to wear skin, so that from the calluses. All the way to attack, poor diet, outdoor, so thin here


    Cao Cao heard the moment, eyebrows up, is very unexpected.


    Fazheng''s reply made Cao Cao respect him.


    It is not easy for a scholar to travel 300 Li a day. Even if Cao Cao''s elite cavalry could travel 300 Li a day, it would be a great burden.


    But Fazheng took it.


    No matter how talented a scholar is, his perseverance is not simple.


    In ancient times, those who achieve great things must have perseverance.


    This is Cao Cao''s view.


    So when Cao Cao heard Fazheng''s words, his tone and attitude changed greatly. He said with a smile, "Mr. FA has passed from Yizhou to Jingzhou, and then from Jingzhou to Yanzhou. What do you think of the three states?"


    This is to compare the three states.


    It also compares Liu Zhang, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao.


    That''s the implication.


    When Fazheng heard Cao Cao''s words, he said, "I''m afraid I can''t answer Sikong''s question. In this case, I didn''t have time to observe the scenery all the way. Second, I have a preconceived view of Yizhou, Jingzhou and Yanzhou. "


    "What''s your opinion?" Cao Cao asked


    Fazheng replied: "Yizhou is located in the western border, surrounded by mountains, trapped in Shu. The common people seldom meet with wars, and their days are good. However, although Yizhou is good, it is far away from the Central Plains after all, and the people are not civilized enough. "


    "Jingzhou runs through the north and the south, is a strategic place, and is also the place where Zhang Xiu rises, with rich people''s livelihood. The people of Jingzhou have a sense of honor and disgrace, and a spirit of enterprising. "


    "Yanzhou is in good order. After all, it is the center of the imperial court and the foot of the emperor. But just like this, Yanzhou is somewhat rigid. If you are in one of them, it is difficult to show your skills. "


    FA Zheng said with a smile: "a lot of nonsense, let Sikong laugh."


    When Cao Cao heard this, he did not make any jokes, but praised it. Because Fazheng''s words are like commenting on the three princes.


    Liu Zhang is weak and lacks courage.


    Zhang Xiu is rich and enterprising.


    Cao Cao was constrained by the emperor.


    Cao Cao consciously tested the talent of FA Zheng, and then said: "Mr. FA''s ability is admirable. In Yizhou, Mr. FA was only a military officer. In my opinion, it''s no problem to be the prefect of a county and govern the local area, not to mention the captain of the Military Council. "FA Zhengdao: "Sikong Muzan."


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "I''m not praising you falsely, but expounding a fact. If Mr. FA is willing to come to the court, I will appoint Mr. FA as the prefect of the county. "


    FA Zhengdao: "Sikong is kind, FA Zhengxin is the leader. However, the Lord is kind to FA Zheng. The good intentions of Sikong can only be realized by Fazheng. " After a pause, Fazheng continued: "I have come here specially to ask Sikong for help at the Lord''s command."


    Cao Cao said: "is it true that Zhang Xiu sent troops south to attack Liu Zhang?"


    "Yes


    Fazheng answered directly.


    When Cao Cao heard this, he was surprised. Previously, he had been informed of Zhang Xiu''s attack on Hanzhong. For Zhang Xiu''s attack on Hanzhong, Cao Cao didn''t care. The reason is very simple. Hanzhong has natural danger to defend, so it''s not so easy to win.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu has already begun to attack Liu Zhang. This means that Zhang Xiu has broken the many dangerous barriers in Hanzhong and has already entered Yizhou, which can be said to take root in Yizhou.


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed, thinking in his heart.


    If Zhang Xiu didn''t capture Hanzhong, Cao Cao would not take charge of it. Because it was very good for Cao Cao to weaken Zhang Xiu with the help of Hanzhong and even Yizhou.


    But not now!


    In the case of Hanzhong fall, no matter Liu Zhang, once Liu Zhang is defeated by Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will easily control Yizhou. At that time, Zhang Xiu had a stable rear area, and even connected Liangzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou and Guanzhong together, which was hard to contain.


    This is what Cao Cao scruples.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Fa Zheng, you come to help on behalf of Liu Zhang. How can I help you?"


    Fazheng said: "please send troops to attack Jingzhou. In this way, Zhang Xiu can not go all out in Yizhou. "


    After a pause, Fazheng said again: "of course, it''s my Lord''s decision to ask Sikong to attack Yizhou just now. But now that I''m here, I have another suggestion. "


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the suggestion?"

 Chapter 729

    FA Zheng said in a deep voice: "although Zhang Xiu is powerful as the imperial court''s imperial commander, in fact, Zhang Xiu''s enemies are all over the world. Yuan Shao is in the north, Sikong is in the Central Plains, and Liu Bei is in Yuzhou. "


    "Another suggestion I''d like to make is to ask Sikong to strike. Instead of attacking Liu Bei, he should cooperate with Liu Bei to attack Jingzhou. In addition, he asked Sikong to send people to the north to unite with Yuan Shao and attack Zhang Xiu with Yuan Shao. "


    "In this way, the three armies will have a chance to wipe out Zhang Xiu."


    Fazheng said, "this is my suggestion."


    Cao Cao stroked his beard and laughed. There was a strong irony in his loud laughter.


    Fazheng thought too naively.


    Now he is attacking Liu Bei, and there has been friction and disagreement with Yuan Shao. To give up attacking Liu Bei and unite with Yuan Shao is a dream.


    When Fazheng heard Cao Cao''s laughter, he didn''t have any impatience or panic. Cao Cao pretended to laugh, but it is a kind of words, deliberately weaken his momentum, but also suppress him.


    FA is waiting quietly.


    After a while, Cao Cao finished laughing and said, "Mr. FA, why should I give up attacking Liu Bei? Why should we join hands with Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to attack Zhang Xiu? "


    "You know, I''m not related to Liu Zhang. What''s more, I don''t like Liu Yan and Liu Zhang. "


    "There is a big part of the reason for the chaos in the world. Liu Yan wrote to the emperor and asked him to change the governor to Zhou mu, which led to the local officials'' monopolization of power and secession."


    "Liu Yan had outstanding ability, but as a patriarch of the Han Dynasty, he was scheming for self-interest and even intended to make trouble. I despise what Liu Yan has done. When you come to Liu Zhang, the tiger father and the dog son have no ability at all. "


    Cao Cao said: "such a person, why should I send troops?"


    FA Zhengdao said: "Cao Sikong wanted to attack Zhang Xiu. To put it simply, Cao Sikong''s descendants, generals and relatives were all captured by Zhang Xiu. Does Cao Sikong not want to take revenge? "


    "No!"


    Without hesitation, Cao Cao said, "now I am a family with Zhang Xiu. You know, Cao Jie, my official''s daughter, is Zhang Xiu''s woman, and Zhang Xiu is my official''s son-in-law. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    This time, it was Fazheng''s turn to laugh.


    FA Zheng''s smile is full of contempt and distrust. He doesn''t believe Cao Cao''s lies. The marriage between princes was as fragile as straw. He didn''t believe it.


    Cao Cao said, "Mr. FA, why do you laugh like me?"


    FA Zheng said, "it''s not like learning from Cao Sikong. It''s just that I can''t help laughing."


    Cao Cao Ming knew that Fazheng would refute or even attack him. But he wanted to hear what Fazheng could have. He said, "I''m curious. What''s Mr. Fazheng''s feeling?"


    FA Zhengdao: "people say that Cao Sikong is extremely intelligent, has excellent vision, can lead soldiers to fight, and can govern state affairs. Now it seems that they are short-sighted and blind. It is not worthy of the name


    When Cao Cao heard this, he knew that Fazheng was doing it on purpose, but his heart was still not happy.


    People are like that. They like to listen to good words.


    Cao Cao is no exception.


    However, Cao Cao was calm and not impatient. "Mr. FA said that my official was short-sighted. What''s the explanation for that?"


    Fazheng said: "I have a reason to say that."


    Cao Cao said, "I''d like to hear it in detail."


    Fazheng replied, "now that Zhang Xiu has captured Hanzhong, she has the bridgehead to capture the whole Yizhou. It can be said that Zhang Xiu has a foothold in Yizhou. With Zhang Xiu''s military prowess, our Lord Liu Zhang will not be able to resist even if he resists with all his strength. "


    "Under the attack of Zhang Xiu, once Zhang Xiu captured Yizhou, Jingzhou, Yizhou, Liangzhou and Guanzhong would become one. Zhang Xiu''s territory is to advance, attack and retreat. "


    "At that time, who in the world can fight each other?"


    "Only Zhang Xiu of Nanyang County can defeat Cao Gong as easily as killing a chicken and a cow. Now the strength of Zhang Xiu, and Cao Sikong fight, I''m afraid as before


    "Cao Sikong now exterminates Yuan Shu, calms Lv Bu, and then intends to exterminate Liu Bei. But today''s Zhang Xiu, strength is not the former Nanyang County Zhang Xiu. It can even be said that the development speed of Zhang Xiu''s strength is far faster than that of Cao Sikong. "


    Pang Tong said: "Zhang Xiu is now powerful and easy to recruit 100000 troops. Although Cao Sikong can, I''m afraid it''s not easy. "


    "Let Zhang Xiu sit up, who will be harmed in the end?"


    "It can only hurt Cao Sikong himself."


    "The only way to prevent Zhang Xiu from seizing Yizhou is to have a bone stuck in her throat. Only in this way can Zhang Xiu''s strength be suppressed. "


    Fazheng said, "Cao Sikong''s intention now is to attack Runan in Yuzhou and destroy Liu Bei. But Liu Bei is not a weak person, not an easy one. "


    "Cao Sikong went all out to attack Liu Bei, but ignored Zhang Xiu''s threat. After you exterminate Liu Bei, the foundation of Zhang Xiu will be thoroughly consolidated. Liu Bei is suffering from the skin, but Zhang Xiu is suffering from the heart. ""There''s a big difference between the two threats."


    Pang Tong continued: "if we do not exterminate Liu Bei today, Liu Bei''s strength will not rise too much. We can encircle and suppress him tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow. But if we don''t deal with Zhang Xiu today, when we deal with Zhang Xiu tomorrow, we will miss the good opportunity. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed, thinking quickly.


    He admits that the law is right.


    For Zhang Xiu''s fear, Cao Cao is more concerned than anyone else, even unwilling to expand Zhang Xiu''s strength.


    Fazheng hit the railway while it was hot: "Cao Sikong wanted to contain Zhang Xiu. Why did he ask Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to join the three armies at the same time? There are two reasons. "


    "First, there is a contradiction between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu had a grudge against Yuan Shao for killing his son, and even killed Yuan Shao''s generals Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others, which made Yuan Shao lose his army. "


    "Second, for Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu cut off the possibility of Liu Bei''s entering Jingzhou and captured Zhang Fei, making it impossible for Liu Bei''s three brothers to reunite again. This is the condition for persuading both sides to send troops."


    After a pause, Fazheng said again: "the most important thing is that Zhang Xiu has strong strength. To deal with Zhang Xiu, only when Yuan Shao, Cao Sikong and Liu Bei, together with the three armies, can they have the chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. In addition, with our Lord''s military strength, it can be described as a four-way army. If we have a chance, we can do our best to wipe out Zhang Xiu. "


    When Cao Cao heard this, he turned his eyes and thought quickly.


    It''s an opportunity.


    Once it really succeeds, Zhang Xiu will be destroyed. Even if it can not destroy Zhang Xiu, it can also weaken Zhang Xiu to the maximum extent, thus suppressing the development of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao is not a pedantic man, not to mention a man without vision.


    He has his own judgment.


    Fazheng concluded: "this is the situation in the world. I say that Cao Sikong is short-sighted because he didn''t see Zhang Xiu''s threat. If Cao Sikong was willing to send troops and lobby Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, an alliance against Zhang Xiu would be formed. When Zhang Xiu is about to be destroyed, there is a chance. "


    Cao Cao suddenly laughed and said, "I didn''t expect Mr. FA to be so wise. Mr. Wang''s words made me open up. It is the duty of the government to send troops. In addition, we will arrange people to inform Yuan Shao and Liu Bei to form a coalition force to send troops. "


    Fazheng was relieved and said, "Sikong Yingming!"

 Chapter 730

    Cao Cao changed his words and said, "Mr. FA has great talent. Under Liu Zhang''s command, he is really wronged. Even if Liu Zhang could hold Yizhou for a while, it would be only a short time. For a long time, Yizhou will lose. As I said before, Mr. FA is willing to come to the center of the imperial court and appoint you as the prefect of a county. "


    "No need!"


    Fazheng shook his head and said, "in his position, seek for his administration. How can I betray my Lord if I accept his kindness. "


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    Cao Cao shook his head one after another.


    He is a person who loves talents, especially loyal people.


    Previously, Cao Cao did not hear Fazheng say that he would travel 300 Li a day. He did not have much intuitive impression of Fazheng and even despised him. We can learn that Fazheng travels three hundred miles a day, and that the logical thinking of Fazheng is so clear that Fazheng is a talent.


    It''s a pity that such talents can''t be brought under their command.


    But Fazheng did not stay and left immediately.


    Cao Cao stood up to see him off.


    After seeing Fazheng off, he immediately arranged for someone to invite Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia and others.


    When the crowd came in, Cao Cao said directly about Fazheng''s intention and said, "now Zhang Xiu is going to attack Liu Zhang. What do you think of the war between Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei


    Previously, Cao Cao promised Fazheng that he would make an alliance with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei. In fact, he just gave Fazheng a perfunctory talk. We have to ask the people under our command how to choose.


    The decision will be made after the opinions of all parties are synthesized.


    Cheng Yu thought and said, "Sikong, I agree to send troops. Fazheng''s analysis is reasonable. He can attack Liu Bei now and in the future. After all, Liu Bei''s strength is not very strong. "


    Guo Jia said: "even if we give Liu Bei a few more years to develop, we can still restrain Liu Bei. But once Zhang Xiu captured Yizhou, it would be the biggest threat to us. At that time, Zhang Xiu, who can advance, attack and retreat, can''t resist. "


    When they heard the speech, they all nodded in agreement.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is well known. Everyone has seen it. It''s too difficult.


    Xun Yu thought about it carefully and said, "I agree with the analysis of Zhongde Gonghe and fengxiao. The first priority now is to contain Zhang Xiu and not let her strength expand too fast. "


    "Yuan Shao had a chance to capture Youzhou after he defeated Gongsun Zan. But in the battle between Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu, his son died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Even Gongsun Zan of Youzhou revived and took control of Youzhou again. "


    "Under this premise, Yuan Shao had only two places, Bingzhou and Jizhou. He was afraid that his strength was not enough."


    "In today''s world, the most powerful person is Zhang Xiu."


    Xun Zheng said: "so the humble position also thinks that the first priority is to send troops to attack Zhang Xiu. It''s not too late to weaken Zhang Xiu and then consider dealing with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei."


    Cao Cao nodded slightly, and his heart agreed.


    This is just the general direction!


    When it comes to sending troops, there must be more detailed strategies.


    Cao Cao thought about it for a while and then said, "under the current situation, we are going to send troops, so how can we send troops? Only in this way can we ensure that this attack on Zhang Xiu will be profitable. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord, there is a way to be humble."


    Cao Cao said, "how can a military strategist set up a general?"


    Guo Jia stood up and said in a loud voice: "when we are attacked, Zhang Xiu not only has to tear off a piece of meat from her territory. In addition, we need to deal with Liu Bei''s threat. "


    Cao Cao said: "how to operate?"


    Guo Jia replied, "send someone to Runan to fight with Liu Bei. In addition, Liu Bei was persuaded to fight hard and join us in fighting for Nanyang County from Yanzhou. "


    "At that time, we will take Nanyang County. Jingzhou, which is to the south of Nanyang County, will be handed over to Liu Bei."


    "The prerequisite is that Liu Bei can gain a firm foothold in Jingzhou and hand over the territory occupied by Yuzhou. In this way, it will kill two birds with one stone, which will not only weaken Zhang Xiu, but also solve Liu Bei''s threat. "


    Guo Jia put forward suggestions.


    Cheng Yu said: "fengxiao''s strategy is good, but will Liu Bei agree?"


    "I will agree."


    Guo Jia''s face was firm, and he said: "Yuzhou is in the fourth World War. Liu Bei is not stable in Yuzhou. Now under our attack, Liu Bei is already in a dilemma. "


    "On the contrary, Jingzhou is located in the south, but it is suitable for Liu Bei to be stationed."


    "Liu Bei will agree to our terms. As long as Liu Xiu''s troops stay in Jingzhou at last, they will not let us go. "


    "Jingzhou is also one of Zhang Xiu''s granaries, which is quite crucial."


    Guo Jia''s eyes twinkled with light and said: "Zhang Xiu will not let Liu Bei stay in Jingzhou all the time, but will attack Liu Bei constantly. In this way, we can use Liu Bei to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. "


    "Wonderful! How wonderful


    Cao Cao''s face was full of joy.


    Cao ang was also sitting at the bottom. He took part in all military affairs, so he took the initiative and said, "commander Guo, after Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, because Jingzhou is adjacent to Yuzhou, what if Liu Bei does not withdraw from Yuzhou?""Ha ha, no way!"


    Guo Jia shook his head and said, "young master ang, Zhuge Liang under Liu Bei is a wise man. It is impossible for him not to withdraw. Once Liu Bei is still in Yuzhou, he will continue to be our enemy. At the same time, in Jingzhou, Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu are enemies. With Liu Bei''s strength, it is impossible to be the enemy of the Lord and Zhang Xiu at the same time. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu have a deep hatred. On the contrary, it is Si Kong who once sent troops to rescue Liu Bei and rushed to rescue Liu Bei several times. Under this premise, Liu Bei can only rely on Sikong. "


    After hearing this, Cao ang showed approval on his face and said, "what the military strategist said is true."


    Cao ang fully understood Guo Jia''s analysis.


    Cao Cao looked around the crowd and said again, "do you have any objection to the attack on Zhang Xiu?"


    "No!"


    All of them answered.


    All of you are extremely intelligent people who can understand the pros and cons.


    Cao Cao brushed his sleeve and said, "in that case, I''ll send an order to Mao Xun to send him to Runan army and go to Pingyu county to see Liu Bei. My official and Liu Bei are willing to turn fighting into friendship. We both joined hands to attack Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Xun Yu responded directly.


    Most of the government affairs were handled by Xun Yu.


    Xun Yu then asked, "Lord, who will Yuan Shao send to lobby?"


    Cao Cao said with a smile, "how about letting Xu you go?"


    "Not right!"


    Xun Yu immediately shook his head and said, "Yuan Shaogang is self willed. Once he sees Xu you, I''m afraid he will kill him immediately. At that time, I''m afraid Yuan Shao will think it''s a demonstration. Please don''t talk to us


    Cao Cao said: "if you don''t want to panic, my official is just a joke. This time, Xun you was the envoy. Under the command of yuan Benchu, there were children of Xun family. It''s just right for Xun you to go. "


    "Here it is


    Xun you sat down and answered directly.


    It is not difficult for him to go north to lobby Yuan Shao.


    Cao Cao arranged the rest of the things, so that the people would step down. At this time, Cao Cao had a look of joy and expectation on his face. He once fought with Zhang Xiu several times, but every time he was flat.


    In particular, the last time Zhang Xiu served as an envoy to Xudu, Cao Cao was embarrassed, and even his officials were embarrassed one by one.


    Cao Cao remembers such things.


    Now, led by Liu Zhang, he is willing to fight Zhang Xiu again. Cao Cao knew that Zhang Xiu was very powerful. He didn''t want to destroy her. After all, Zhang Xiu could retreat into Xiliang or even Hanzhong.


    As long as it can weaken the strength of Zhang Xiu, and even split Jingzhou out, that is excellent.

 Chapter 731

    The army led by Zhang Xiu went south from Baishui County. After entering July, the army had already entered Jiameng county and reached Jiameng pass in Jiameng county.


    This level is still across the mountains.


    This road blocked Zhang Xiu''s way to the south.


    When Jiameng was closed, Zhang Ren still led the troops. Zhang Ren left Zhang Xiu''s barracks and went all the way south. He did not dare to delay. After all, he was a general in Yizhou. Even if it was reported that Zhang Ren was captured by Zhang Xiu, but was released, Jiameng''s guard general did not say anything. He was willing to hand over military power and let Zhang Ren set up the defense.


    In Jiameng pass, Zhang Ren built the watchtower again, and arranged for soldiers to stare at it. Twelve hours a day, people are watching at any time. As long as there is a flying ball, the soldiers on the tower will shout, and a crossbow will be shot from the checkpoint.


    Enough to shoot through the fly.


    This is Zhang Ren''s defense.


    Zhang Xiu arrived with the army, did not attack immediately, and did not come forward to talk with Zhang Ren. With the previous two confrontations, Zhang Xiu believes that Zhang Ren will learn a lesson, will not fight again, and he will not speak more.


    Zhang Xiu quietly waits for the news of Zhang Ren''s surrender and ferments in Chengdu.


    The news really spread very fast.


    Zhang Ren is a great general in Yizhou. Even Zhang Ren is defeated. We can imagine how many waves such a thing will cause. Even Zhang Ren was Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother, who came back after being captured by Zhang Xiu.


    All kinds of news are rampant.


    The news soon spread to the prefecture.


    When Liu Zhang got the news, he was not sure about the situation, so he arranged for people to send for Pang Xi, Huang Quan, Zhang song, Wu Yi and others to discuss the matter.


    Liu Zhang''s face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "you all know about Zhang Ren. How do you deal with Zhang Ren now


    Pang Xi''s eyes were sharp, and he said: "Lord, according to his humble position, Zhang Ren was defeated and captured in Baishui County, which led to the fall of the army. Such serious crimes should not be punished. Therefore, he suggested sending soldiers to the North immediately and escorting Zhang Ren back to Chengdu for questioning. "


    "No!"


    Zhang Song spoke at once.


    Zhang Song knew pangxi very well. He was a man who wanted to seize power. Pang Xi was loyal to Liu Zhang, but he was greedy of power and always wanted to get involved in more military power and squeeze Zhang Ren down.


    Once pangxi came to power, it was not good for Liu Zhang.


    Liu Zhang said in a deep voice, "what''s ziqiao''s suggestion?"


    Zhang Song replied, "to my Lord, Zhang Ren is now at the front line and the backbone of the army. At this time, sending someone to the front line to take down Zhang Ren would be tantamount to removing the spine of the soldiers in the army, which would easily lead to mutiny and be detrimental to the war. "


    After a pause, Zhang Song said, "I suggest that Lingbao and Liu Ruo should go north to Jiameng pass, so that they can garrison Jiameng pass. Then, Zhang Ren was sent back to Jianmen pass, and Zhang Ren was stationed at Jianmen pass. In this way, we will not worry about Zhang Ren''s problem. "


    Pang Xi retorted: "but what if Zhang Ren has already turned over to Zhang Xiu? You know, Zhang Ren is Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother. If Zhang Ren had been subordinated to Zhang Xiu and transferred to Jianmen pass, he would have made Ling Bao and Liu Ruo a lone army. At that time, Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu will be defeated by Ling Bao and Liu Ruo. "


    "Miao Yi!"


    Zhang Song shook his head and said, "first of all, I let Zhang Ren sit at the Jianmen pass. I don''t want Zhang Ren to transfer all the soldiers back. Like xiegu pass, Jianmen is easy to defend but hard to attack. "


    "Zhang Ren''s garrison only needs more than a thousand soldiers, which is enough."


    "The rest of Zhang Ren''s troops are in the charge of Ling Bao and Liu Ruo. In this way, Zhang Ren could not attack Ling Bao and Liu Ruo. "


    "Second, Zhang Ren''s character, I know very well that he is loyal to his Lord. Since he came back with the army, he would not consider the relationship with Zhang Xiu''s brothers. Instead, he would be loyal to the Lord. "


    Zhang Song turned and bowed his hand to Liu Zhang. He said solemnly, "please tell me!"


    Wu Yi said: "my Lord, I agree with Zhang ziqiao''s analysis. Zhang Renzhong will not surrender. What''s more, if you transfer him back to the sword gate, you will be able to stabilize Jiameng pass. It''s like cutting off the threat. "


    Huang Quan said, "I agree with your humble position."


    They all stood on Zhang Song''s side, which made Pang Xi have no position at all.


    Seeing this, Liu Zhang immediately made arrangements to evacuate Zhang Ren and let Zhang Song deal with the matter. However, on Liu Zhang''s face, there was a touch of worry, saying: "now in July, Fazheng left Chengdu for a while. I don''t know. How is the law going


    Zhang Song confidently said: "it''s all right to expect!"


    He believes in the ability of the law.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant quickly entered, saluted and said: "my Lord, Fazheng asked to see you."


    "Come on, please!"


    When Liu Zhang heard this, he looked even more happy.


    Come back!


    Finally back.


    Liu Zhang stood up and walked back and forth on the main seat of the hall with a happy look. After half a sound, Fazheng rushed into the camp.At this time, Fazheng''s clothes were ragged, his temples were scattered, his beard was in a mess, and he was very tired. Especially when he was rushed back, he was also desperate to go on his way. He lost more than ten pounds.


    Fazheng now weighs less than 100 Jin. At a glance, it looks like a bamboo pole. When the wind blows, it may fall to the ground. In order to get back early, he would travel 300 Li every other day, as fast as he could.


    It''s just that. It''s just that.


    "Humble Fazheng, meet your Lord!"


    Fazheng''s voice was hoarse. When he walked, his legs trembled. He is fast on the road. Even though his legs have been worn into old skin, he is still injured on the inside of his legs.


    Liu Zhang waved his hand and said, "Xiaozhi doesn''t need to be polite. What''s the situation of this mission?"


    FA Zhengdao said: "report back to my Lord, Cao Cao has agreed to send troops. Not only that, Cao Cao also said that he would temporarily put down his grudge with Liu Bei, stop attacking Liu Bei, and join forces with Liu Bei and Yuan Shao. It is expected that in a short time, Zhang Xiu''s north-south border will be attacked by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time. Now, we are sure to keep Yizhou. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Liu Zhang''s face was full of joy and said: "since there are Yuan Shao and Cao Cao attacking Zhang Xiu, do you think we can take advantage of the situation and fight directly with Zhang Xiu? Try to work hard and defeat Zhang Xiu completely. "


    "Not my Lord!"


    Fazheng''s hoarse voice rang out again.


    Liu Zhang said, "why?"


    Fazheng explained: "Zhang Xiu''s troops are extremely powerful. Once we attack, if we are defeated by Zhang Xiu first, we will be defeated by Zhang Xiu before the Allied forces attack. Is it not a busy life?"


    "I think that under the current situation, what we have to do is to stick to it and delay time. When the news of the attack by Yuan Shao and others comes back, it''s not too late to counter attack. "


    "At that time, we will not only fight back, but also strive to enter Hanzhong and take back xiegu pass. Only in this way can we control the main way to Sichuan. Otherwise, it will be difficult for us to grasp Zhang Xiu. "


    Fazheng made suggestions.


    Zhang Song said, "Xiaozhi, you don''t understand the current situation."


    After that, Zhang Song said something about Zhang Xiu''s breaking the baishuiguan pass and capturing Zhang Ren alive. When all the things were finished, Zhang Song said: "Zhang Ren is Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother, although after Zhang Ren is captured, even if he is released by Zhang Xiu. But now Zhang Ren is different from before. Ling Bao and Liu Ruo went north, although they could be stationed. But I think it''s quite difficult for them to lead the troops to fight back against Zhang Xiu. "


    Fazheng said, "if that''s the case, stick to it first. Now, as long as we don''t defend the territory, we need to win. "


    Liu Zhang listened to FA Zheng''s words, thought about it for a while, and finally sighed: "it''s nothing. I don''t say that I can''t send troops or defend myself. Pass orders to Ling Bao and Liu Ruo to judge the situation and act randomly in Jiameng pass. It''s mainly about defense


    "My Lord is wise!"


    All of them agreed with Liu Zhang''s decision.


    This order was quickly passed on.

 Chapter 732

    Outside Jiameng pass, Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed.


    The army was stationed here, and there was no attack from beginning to end. Because Zhang Ren is in, with Zhang Ren''s understanding of Zhang Xiu, more with Zhang Ren''s degree of prudence, it is impossible to send troops easily.


    As long as Zhang Ren is stationed in Jiameng pass, it is very difficult for Zhang Xiu to capture Jiameng pass. After all, Jiameng pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the defensive equipment is sufficient. Let Zhang Xiu spend countless soldiers to attack, and finally unable to capture, such a situation, Zhang Xiu is not willing to.


    He preferred to wait for the news.


    In the army, Zhang Xiu has little to do all day. Especially in the middle of Sichuan, the weather is quite hot after July. He simply let the soldiers make the iron pot in the army, fried the hot pot base material with Cornus officinalis, ginger, fragrant leaves, cinnamon and so on, added the soup stewed with bones, and finally let people kill a pig to eat hot pot.


    The hot pot made in this way is simple, rough, and has no red oil of bean paste, so its taste is much worse.


    After all, there is a lack of seasoning.


    But it''s the first time. It''s a good taste. After all, it''s quite comfortable to eat such a hot pot when it''s relatively simple to eat, and there are no major cuisines invented, and there are no condiments.


    Especially in July, it is rather sultry.


    Hot pot hold, take off the coat, eat sweating, the body''s hot and humid are divergent, the whole body comfortable.


    Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others ate for three days.


    I don''t want to eat it in three days.


    However, when Sima Yi and Pang Tong didn''t eat much, Zhang Xiu prepared new dishes, such as duck intestines, duck mushroom liver and so on.


    The hot pot is beginning to spread.


    Many generals in the army are eating hot pot.


    As for the soldiers in the army, they can''t eat such food, but they can have meat cooked in a big pot. The food is also very rich and not bad at all.


    This day, near noon.


    Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong and Sima Yi have been sitting around and eating hot pot. They chatted and scalded duck intestines one day, which is now Zhang Xiu''s, Pang Tong''s and Sima Yi''s favorite. They all like scalding duck intestines.


    Whoo!


    The curtain of the tent was lifted and Wang Yue strode in.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Wang more and more, she said: "Wang more and more, come on, come on, sit down and eat. On a hot day, especially in Sichuan, it''s muggy. After eating it, you can have a drink of the spring just taken out of the mountain. It''s cold and comfortable. After eating, sweating and taking a cold bath, it''s really comfortable. "


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, I will not eat my humble position. I''m old and old, and I can''t stand such a big fish. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang Yue said: "report back to my Lord. From Chengdu, it is reported that Liu Zhang has sent Lingbao and Liu Ruo northward from Jianmen pass to garrison Jiameng pass. In addition, transfer Zhang Ren to Jianmen pass. "


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu called out.


    Zhang Ren was transferred from Jiameng pass, which means that Liu Zhang at least began to doubt Zhang Ren. It will be of great help to Zhang Xiu in recruiting Zhang Ren. In addition, after Zhang Ren left, it would be much easier for Zhang Xiu to conquer Jiameng pass.


    After eating a piece of pork, Sima Yi felt comfortable and said with regret: "unfortunately, Zhang Ren was not directly transferred back to Chengdu. If Zhang Ren is directly transferred back to Chengdu, he may be asked about his crime. Let Zhang Ren sit at Jianmen pass, is still believe Zhang Ren. It means that there is a long way to go to separate Zhang Ren and Liu Zhang. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "when are Ling Bao and Liu Ruo expected to arrive?"


    Wang Yue said, "tomorrow morning at the latest."


    Zhang Xiu kept chopsticks in her hand and said, "in that case, send orders to the soldiers in the army. Tomorrow morning, we will go to jiamengguan. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned and stepped down.


    After Wang Yue turned and left, Zhang Xiu, Sima Yi and Pang Tong continued to eat happily.


    As time goes by, it''s time to register in the afternoon.


    In Zhang Xiu''s camp, everything is the same.


    But on the upper floor of Jiameng pass, Zhang Ren receives the news that Ling Bao and Liu Ruo are going north, and they are about to arrive. When Zhang Ren got the news, he was still a little disappointed.


    Zhang Ren, who was loyal to Liu Zhang, never went back from beginning to end and was willing to repay Liu Zhang for his kindness. But now, although he was captured alive by Zhang Xiu, Liu Zhang''s action is tantamount to suspecting Zhang Ren and not trusting him to stay in Jiameng pass.


    As a former prisoner, Zhang Ren is sensitive. As long as it is mentioned that Zhang is captured by Zhang Xiu, and that Zhang Ren is Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother, Zhang Ren is upset.


    These two things made him extremely helpless.


    If he had been captured by Zhang Xiu at the beginning, he would have died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. It would have been all over, and there was nothing to worry about. But now, he came back. Although he was still loyal to Liu Zhang, he was not what he used to be, but Zhang Ren, who had been reduced to a prisoner.That''s the difference.


    Zhang Ren went out of the room and stood on the tower, inspecting the defense of the tower.


    Two quarters of an hour later, in Jiameng pass, an army arrived in a mighty manner.


    This army is commanding by Ling Bao and Liu Ruo.


    Among them, Ling Bao was the leader.


    Ling Bao walked in front of him. When he arrived at the downstairs of the inner city of Jiameng pass, he ordered the soldiers to stay in the pass. Then he took Liu Ruo with him and quickly climbed the tower.


    Seeing Zhang Ren, Ling Bao''s eyes flashed a trace of disdain and said, "Zhang Ren, Lord, I''ve ordered you to take off your armor and hand over your talisman immediately. Then, with a thousand soldiers back to Jianmen pass. The garrison of Jiameng pass is in the charge of this general and Liu Ruo. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren responded directly.


    As soon as the words changed, Zhang Ren said: "general Ling, Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with, and..."


    He intended to remind Ling Bao, but as soon as he said it, he was interrupted by Ling Bao. He only heard Ling Bao coldly say: "Zhang Ren, what''s the situation on the battlefield, won''t you judge it by yourself? You are a defeated general, or Zhang Xiu''s elder martial brother. Who knows if you are defeated on purpose? Stop talking. It''s disgusting. "


    Zhang Ren''s face changed again and again.


    He did not expect that Ling Bao should be so rude and humiliate him.


    Zhang Ren clenched his fist and was very angry.


    Ling Bao raised her head and tossed the ground with a voice: "why, do you want Zhang Ren to hit me? Come on, come on, hit me in the face. I''d like to see the prestige of any defeated general. "


    Liu Ruo also looked down on Zhang Ren and said sarcastically, "Zhang Ren, if I were you, I would not stay any longer. I would have left long ago. Where would I have the cheek to leave?"


    Lingbao said, "what General Liu said is true."


    Liu Ruo said: "go away!"


    Two people, constantly criticizing the run on Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren''s face. This scene makes Gu can and others even more angry. Even Zhang Ren''s guards are already furious, intending to kill people.


    It was all stopped by Zhang Ren.


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Ren big sleeve a brush, directly under the order.


    The people he wanted to take away had already been arranged. But he could take a thousand people away, so after Zhang Ren left the castle, he went straight to the barracks and sent his soldiers away.


    Ling Bao and Liu Ruo look at each other and both of them laugh. They quickly changed their ways and removed the bow and crossbow on the city floor, because in their view, Zhang Ren wrote to Liu Zhang that Zhang Xiu had a flying ball, which was a bluff.


    Zhang Ren is sophistry for himself.


    After all the adjustments, Ling Bao looked at Liu Ruo and said, "Liu Ruo, let''s bring more than 20000 elite soldiers. Zhang Ren has more than 20000 under his command. Plus jiamengguan itself, there are thousands of elite. Now we have 50000 elite soldiers. How do you think we should meet the enemy? "

 Chapter 733

    Liu Ruo''s eyes were sharp and said in a deep voice: "in my opinion, it''s better to take the strategy of attacking at night. Zhang Xiu thinks that when we arrive at Jiameng pass, we will take defensive tactics. However, we went the other way and attacked Zhang Xiu overnight to meet the enemy. "


    At this moment, Liu Ruo was very excited and looked forward to it. He said: "in this way, we will win the first World War. Most importantly, we arrived quietly, but Zhang Xiu didn''t know our whereabouts. This attack is unexpected. "


    "Wonderful! How wonderful


    Ling Bao''s face was full of praise.


    He agreed with Liu Ruo''s suggestion.


    Ling Bao is also a great general in Shu, and his martial arts are quite strong. Even Ling Bao was not very convinced with Zhang Ren. Now, he has a chance to prove himself, and he is unwilling to let it go. He wants to beat Zhang Xiu to prove himself.


    Liu Ruo''s eyes twinkled with ambition, said: "if you can defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, you''d better capture her alive."


    "There''s a chance!"


    Ling Bao has sharp eyes and high morale.


    Both of them are veterans of the battlefield. They have been in Sichuan all the time. They have never been in battle and have never seen Zhang Xiu''s strength with their own eyes. Even if you know that Zhang Xiu is powerful, but everyone is like this. If you don''t see it with your own eyes, you won''t believe it when you hear what others say.


    Ling Bao said, "Liu Ruo, arrange for the soldiers to rest. In the evening, we will send troops. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ruo should go to arrange it immediately.


    Ling Bao took over the army and waited quietly on the tower. It was getting dark. Towards evening, the army had dinner. After dinner, the soldiers did not go to rest. They were arrayed in the pass.


    Night falls and the full moon rises.


    The bright moonlight came down and dispersed the darkness. Even at night, there is a trace of light, you can clearly see the road outside the pass. Although the line of sight is relatively close, at least you can see clearly. Ling Baoding came to the position where the army was, quickly said something to boost morale, and then gave the order to send troops.


    Creak!


    The gate of Jiameng pass opened, and Ling Bao and Liu Ruo led the army to leave the pass.


    Ling Bao''s eyes fell on Liu Ruo. Although Liu Ruo was as usual, there was a faint blush on his face, and his eyes were slightly blurred. Ling Bao was angry and said in a deep voice, "Liu Ruo, did you drink at night?"


    Liu Ruo waved his hand and said, "it''s OK, it''s OK. I just drank a little wine. It doesn''t affect me. Don''t worry, I''m the first one to rush to the front of the fight tonight. Liu Ruo can take the lead. "


    Ling Bao snorted, very dissatisfied.


    Knowing that he is going to fight Zhang Xiu in the evening, Liu Ruo still drinks, which is disappointing.


    The army is on its way, moving fast.


    After Ling Bao''s army left Jiameng pass, the situation was soon discovered by the nearby sentry. Although Zhang Xiu had camped nine miles to the north of jiamengguan, she could always send sentinels to stay here so as to get information.


    The news of Lingbao''s going to fight soon spread.


    Zhang Xiu had rested, but as soon as she got the news from Wang Yue, she got up and called Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan, Ma Chao, Sha Moke and others to discuss the matter.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a deep voice, "Jiameng, the Yizhou army in the pass, took the initiative to fight. It can be seen that Ling Bao and Liu Ruo must have arrived and gained the control of the army. This time Ling Bao and Liu Ruo are going to fight, that''s our chance. "


    "Zhao Yun!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhao Yun answered with a solemn look.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you muster three thousand white horses and ten thousand flying Qiang troops to leave from Houying and take a path to Jiameng pass to hide outside Jiameng pass. Once Ling Bao and Liu Ruo''s troops return, you can kill them directly and cut off their retreat. "


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun immediately responded.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhang Yan again and said, "Zhang Yan!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhang Yan immediately stood up and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you lead the soldiers of the black mountain army to ambush on both sides outside the camp. When Liu Ruo and Ling Bao''s troops arrive and attack the camp, I will let them into the camp. When Liu Ruo and Ling Bao''s army enter more than half, you lead the troops to kill them and cut them into two parts. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan made a reply.


    Zhang Xiu finally looked at aguli and Zhang Yan and said, "the regular army and the rest of the flying Qiang army will fight with me. In the camp, we met Ling Bao and Liu Ruo''s army head on. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Every face is full of fighting spirit. In today''s situation, as long as we defeat Lingbao and Liu Ruo, we can win Jiameng pass easily.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s expectation.


    As long as we capture Jiameng pass, Guanghan county will capture nearly half of it. For Zhang Xiu, it is closer to Chengdu.


    Step by step, go to Chengdu.


    The crowd dispersed to prepare for the war in the evening. Zhang Xiu is already wearing armor, preparing for the first battle in the evening.As time goes by, the night gets darker. The army led by Liu Ruo and Ling Bao is getting closer and closer to Zhang Xiu camp. It''s a very smooth and smooth road. It''s easy to get on.


    When Ling Bao and his army arrived at the distance of Zhang Xiu''s camp, they stopped a hundred paces away.


    Ling Bao looked carefully at Zhang Xiu''s camp layout. He saw that there was no defense in the camp, only a few soldiers on patrol. His face immediately filled with a smile, and said: "God given opportunity, although Zhang Xiu is good at fighting, he is too arrogant to set up defense. This time, it''s our chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    Liu Ruo galloped his horse and stood up. Without waiting for Ling Bao''s order, he galloped out and said, "kill!"


    The soldiers under his command are gathering in response.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, there were shouts from the army. One by one, the soldiers in the army were shouting and shouting. In the eyes of the soldiers, Liu Ruo was also a general in the army and could give orders.


    But Ling Bao is cold and solemn. It''s his right to give orders. But after Liu Ruo drank a few mouthfuls of horse urine, he couldn''t tell the difference between the heavy and the heavy. Giving a direct order was tantamount to snatching his command over the army.


    Ling Bao also knows that Liu Ruo is drunk, leading to confusion, so directly ordered.


    Therefore, Ling Bao did not care.


    Ling Bao ordered the attack, and the army rushed to the camp.


    "Dang! Dang


    The sound of the Gong suddenly rang out.


    "Enemy attack! Enemy attack


    The soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp, seeing the Yizhou army and Liu Ruo, beating the gong and shouting. Then the soldiers ran back without stopping them.


    This scene, Liu Ruo did not put in the eye, Liu Ruo shakes the reins, a strong forward.


    "Kill


    Liu Ruo yelled, he has pulled out the sword at his waist. With his sword in his hand, he kept waving it, just like riding in the dust.


    Zhang Xiu is in the camp. She''s ready.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know Liu Ruo, but as the distance gets closer, the other party is less than 100 steps away from him. In this case, it''s a live target.


    Zhang Xiu directly takes the bow and arrow, pulls the bow to take the arrow, aims at Liu Ruo who runs.


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    "Hum!"


    The bowstring vibrates and the arrow breaks through the air.


    The bow and arrow is as fast as lightning. Against the fire in the camp, only a shadow is left, and it comes to Liu Ruo. Liu Ruo did not respond, just listen to a puff, the bow and arrow has penetrated into Liu Ruo''s heart.


    "Ah


    Liu Ruo screamed and fell on the ground from his horse.


    The soldier who rushes forward, seeing Liu Ruo killed, obviously has a slight pause. At this point, the soldiers in the rear didn''t see it, so one by one soldiers rushed forward quickly and kept on sprinting. Even if Liu Ruo was killed, the momentum of the soldiers'' forward momentum didn''t stop, and they sprinted forward quickly.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Yizhou Army soldiers, constantly shouting.


    Zhang Xiu sees all this in the eyes, the corners of her mouth evoke a touch of disdain. He has been waiting for such a long time in jiamengguan just to win the war.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, under the attack order.


    Zhang and a Guli led their own soldiers to fight against the Yizhou soldiers.

 Chapter 734

    The number of Zhang Ya and aguli''s troops was more than 30000 because they had previously deployed 10000 flying Qiang troops. However, the 30000 elite soldiers were not weak. They met and fought with the army led by Ling Bao.


    The two armies fought to form a regiment.


    Ling Bao didn''t rush in the front. When he commanded the soldiers to kill, he knew that Liu Ruo had been shot.


    There was a curse in his heart.


    When he came, he told Liu Ruo not to drink after he arrived at Jiameng pass. Did not expect, Liu Ruo inflexible, still go their own way of drinking, so faint forward was killed.


    Fortunately, when Liu Ruo was shot at the beginning, it was only the soldiers in the front. When they found that Liu Ruo died under the arrow, the rest of the soldiers did not know that Liu Ruo had been killed, and the morale of the army was not affected.


    This is Ling Bao''s blessing.


    Ling Bao roared: "kill, kill for me!"


    "The one who killed Zhang Xiu was rewarded with 100 gold, and the official was promoted to three levels."


    "Kill


    "Kill me!"


    Ling Bao gave a loud order. He didn''t delay. He sent nearly 50000 elite soldiers under his command. Originally, there was no ambush in Zhang Xiu''s camp, so the army under Ling Bao entered the camp on a large scale.


    This made Lingbao happy.


    He had a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    He wants to win the first World War!


    Then, establish his reputation as a great general.


    Zhang Ya and a Guli, soldiers fighting together, fought hard and led the way forward. However, the number of these troops is small after all. The situation between the two sides is stalemate, unable to defeat Lingbao''s army. The two sides are constantly fighting in the dark.


    "Lord, please fight


    Shamoko''s face was excited, and he was eager to have a try.


    Shamoko loved fighting on the battlefield.


    Killing people on the battlefield, he swung the bone of Tribulus terrestris and smashed it into each other''s head. The feeling of brain cracking and blood splashing made him feel happy from the bottom of his heart. Shamoko could feel the excitement in his heart, as if his whole soul shuddered.


    It''s very comfortable.


    "I know it''s a fight," said Zhang


    "Here it is


    Shamoko responded with excitement.


    As soon as he patted the horse''s back, he rushed out directly with the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    As fast as lightning, shamoko entered the battlefield. He swung the iron thistle in his hand and swept it out directly. With the place where the flower of Tribulus terrestris passes, the flesh and blood are flying.


    A corpse, falling to the ground.


    Blood splashed on shamoko''s face, and he howled and roared, extremely excited.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    Shamoko tried to roar.


    He is like a hungry wolf who is never tired, constantly fighting and attacking. The place where the horses passed was a bloodbath, which made people shudder.


    Fighting on the battlefield, personal courage, in fact, very little.


    Because among tens of thousands of people, one person in it, even if slaughtered countless, also like a drop in the ocean, can not lift waves. But personal bravery can boost morale.


    When the morale of the soldiers under his command is stimulated and the soldiers fight hard, it''s different. Shamoko''s influence, like a tornado, swept through countless soldiers, making countless soldiers fight to kill, like a sharp cone into the Yizhou army''s lineup.


    No one can stop them.


    Ling Bao finds out the situation at shamoko''s place and quickly orders to mobilize the soldiers in the army, so that more soldiers gather at shamoko''s place, intending to resist shamoko''s attack and then counterattack.


    "Kill


    All of a sudden, there was a cry at the gate of the camp.


    I saw the left and right wings outside the camp, each with its own team.


    Zhang Yan is the leader.


    He led the black mountain army, suddenly out, cut into the middle and back position of the Yizhou army, quickly closed, cut the Yizhou army into two sections, and then attacked the Yizhou army outside the camp.


    Ling Bao was caught unprepared, and his calm expression became panic, and his expression was extremely nervous.


    In the camp, Zhang Xiu''s army was on the offensive. Outside the camp, Zhang Xiu''s ambush is fierce. After Lingbao''s army was cut into two parts, the former army who entered the camp could not stop Zhang Xiu''s attack, showing a rout.


    The key is that when the soldiers under Ling Bao find that Zhang Xiu has laid an ambush outside the camp, they think that Zhang Xiu is in the trap. In addition, Zhang Xiu''s offensive is so fierce that the soldiers who resist all panic, so that they are in a mess.


    "General, the situation is very unfavorable!"


    On one side of Lingbao, a school began to persuade.


    "Newspaper!"


    Another soldier came and reported: "general, Zhang Xiu''s army is fierce. Among them, there was a man with iron Tribulus terrestris, who was extremely vicious and killed countless people. Our army is unstoppable. ""Newspaper!"


    Another captain came from the rear and reported: "general, Zhang Xiu''s army outside the camp is extremely fierce. Our army is beginning to show signs of rout. "


    People keep coming back to report.


    Or soldiers, or generals, are all panicked.


    Ling Bao clenched his fist and looked solemn. He had great hope for the war. Especially when other people arrive at Jiameng pass unconsciously, and then suddenly attack at night, Zhang Xiu should be unprepared.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s army had laid an ambush outside the camp, which was clearly known for a long time.


    "Withdraw!"


    After thinking for a while, Ling Bao, though unwilling, gave the order to retreat. In the current situation, if we do not retreat, it will be even more dangerous if the whole army is defeated.


    Ling Bao turned his horse and retreated. His soldiers followed him and quickly withdrew from the camp, then retreated to the direction of jiamengguan. But with the retreat of Lingbao, the whole army was completely out of order and could no longer maintain the momentum of resistance.


    The Yizhou army in Lingbao was defeated like a mountain.


    "Kill


    Shamoko rose to kill, carrying the bone of Tribulus terrestris, quickly forward to kill.


    Zhang Ya, aguli and others also led the fight. At this time, the rush was almost like chopping people, like chopping melons and vegetables, and constantly slashing people with a knife to reap the fruits of victory.


    The Yizhou army retreated. If there was no resistance, the whole line was defeated. As long as you rush up, you will have a chance to kill the enemy and make contributions.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the retreating Lingbao army, a touch of cold came to her lips.


    Retreat?


    He had expected it.


    This time, we need to see how Ling Bao retreats.


    Zhang Xiu did not participate in the pursuit, but stayed in the camp, guarding the camp.


    Ling Bao retreated with the soldiers. Looking back, he saw that there was a constant cry of killing in the rear, and even the voice of surrender was lingering in his ears. His heart was like a knife.


    Heart, incomparable pain!


    He came with a large army, full of ambition. But now they are in a dilemma, which makes Lingbao extremely uncomfortable.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Ling Bao urged him to retreat again.


    As the distance from jiamengguan gets closer and closer, Lingbao is finally relieved. As long as he returns to Jiameng pass, he can stick to it with the help of Jiameng pass. In this way, it can resist Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Zhang Ren can keep it, so can he.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    All of a sudden, in front of a hundred feet away, lit a torch.


    Against the red fire, Zhao Yun''s three thousand white horses were all arrayed. With Zhao Yun''s command, three thousand horses hissed and trampled on the ground.


    "Kill


    Zhao Yun takes the lead.


    In his hand, he had a dragon gall and a silver spear in his hand. With a fierce look, he drove his horse straight to the withdrawn Lingbao.

 Chapter 735

    Zhao Yun is as fast as a horse. He rushed to the front, just as Ling Bao, under the protection of the guard, also retreated to the front.


    When the two armies were at war, Ling Bao didn''t rush in the front, but was in the middle army. When he retreated, he would leave first under the protection of his own guards. Only in this way can we always protect his safety.


    Only in the case of Zhao Yun''s ambush, Ling Bao ran in the front and immediately became the primary target of attack.


    It''s late, it''s fast.


    In a twinkling of an eye, when Zhao Yun comes to the front of Lingbao''s guard, he picks up the silver gun and sweeps it. Just listen to a crack, the barrel of the gun hit the pro guard''s waist, only listen to a crack, the pro guard''s waist rib fracture.


    Pro Wei screamed and fell directly under the impact of the great power.


    Zhao Yun knocked a man down and shot him again.


    Dragon gall silver spear out, as fast as lightning, only listen to the sound of Puchi.


    One by one, Ling Bao''s guards were killed in a twinkling of an eye. Zhao Yun rips open Tuan Tuan''s defense line to protect Lingbao, and his horse rushes in.


    He''s close.


    "Whew!"


    The long spear turned into a streamer and pierced the cold bud.


    Ling Bao raises the knife in hand, at the moment when the big gun stabs, the blade cuts down mercilessly.


    "Dang!"


    The blade and the barrel of the gun collided, and sparks splashed.


    As soon as Zhao Yun''s gun barrel shakes, he swings his sword. As soon as the gun was pulled out, it had reached the heart of Ling Bao in the twinkling of an eye. In particular, the speed of this shot was much faster than before. Before Lingbao could react, the big gun had penetrated into Lingbao''s heart and was drawn out like lightning.


    "Poof!"


    Blood splashed, Ling Bao screamed, then fell from the horse.


    "General Lingbao was killed, run away!"


    "Run away!"


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    All the guards of Lingbao roared. The look on their faces was terrified. Previously, Liu Ruo had been killed, but now Lingbao is dead. They have lost their backbone and continue to retreat one by one.


    Rao is so, but these soldiers can''t retreat.


    Three thousand white horse Yi from the fight in, continue to kill Lingbao bring retreat soldiers. Even if there were some people who broke out of the encirclement, behind Zhao Yun, there was an infantry Hall of flying Qiang army, blocking the retreat direction of Yizhou army.


    No one can retreat!


    Under this premise, the Yizhou army, which had nowhere to escape, began to surrender on a large scale. Wave after wave of soldiers knelt on the ground and surrendered, shouting to spare their lives. They did not dare to resist any more.


    The fighting just now has scared the courage of these soldiers.


    Whether it is shamoko, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan, Zhang Ya and others, they are all encircling and suppressing Yizhou soldiers. Under such a premise, they could not retreat at all, they could only surrender.


    When Zhao Yun and Zhang Ya joined up, the Yizhou army broke down.


    There is no more resistance.


    All the soldiers who resisted were killed, leaving no one behind.


    Zhang chin said in a deep voice: "General Zhao, now that Liu Ruo and Ling Bao have been killed, it''s our chance to break Jiameng pass. We''re going to Jiameng pass now, and we''re going to win the pass in one go. "


    "So be it!"


    With a smile on his face, Zhao Yun readily agreed.


    When the army converged, some soldiers were left to deal with the surrender Yizhou army, while all the troops went to the direction of jiamengguan. After the army arrived at Jiameng pass, Zhao Yun went forward and yelled: "listen to the people on the tower, Lingbao and Liu Ruo have been killed, and all the 50000 troops have been destroyed. Now open Jiameng pass and surrender. Otherwise, there will be no amnesty for killing! "


    The soldiers in the checkpoint were completely flustered.


    One by one, they were in a panic.


    Lost!


    More killed!


    No one expected that Ling Bao and Liu Ruo were so weak that they were killed as soon as they led the troops to fight. You know, Ling Bao and Liu Ruo led 50000 troops, not 50000 livestock, but 50000 elite soldiers.


    The army was defeated and suffered heavy losses.


    There are only two or three hundred soldiers left on the tower. These soldiers are already in a panic. Some soldiers, talking about retreating, are ready to go to Zhang Ren, who goes south to Jianmen pass in the daytime. Some soldiers, thinking that Ling Bao and Liu Ruo are dead, don''t have to resist any more, just surrender.


    When the two sides argued, the soldiers had taken the lead in opening the gate of the checkpoint.


    This situation brought the dispute to an abrupt end. Soldiers who want to surrender, quickly prepare to surrender. The soldiers who wanted to leave did not dare to delay. After they got down from the castle, they quickly retreated.


    Zhang chin waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to step forward and quickly enter the pass to control the whole Jiameng pass.


    After the army captured Jiameng pass, Zhang Ya and Zhao Yun followed.


    Then Zhang sent someone back to deliver the message.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she set out for Jiameng pass. Zhang Xiu along the way, there are soldiers continue to gather surrender Yizhou soldiers, but also in the inventory of the body, deal with the body of Yizhou soldiers killed.All this, Zhang Xiu did not interfere, let the responsible officers and men.


    After Zhang Xiu arrived at Jiameng pass, she came to the city upstairs. Because now there is no statistical results, Zhang Xiu will directly rest. The next morning, after Zhang Xiu woke up, just after breakfast, Zhang came.


    I haven''t slept all night!


    He had been counting the results of the war last night, looking at the situation of the war.


    Zhang Xianchen reported: "Lord, in our battle with Lingbao and Liu Ruo, Liu Ruo died under the Lord''s arrow, and Lingbao was stabbed to death by General Zhao. In addition, the number of Yizhou soldiers captured was more than 37000. "


    "In addition, the number of soldiers we killed was about 9000, and many others fled."


    "On our side, the number of troops damaged is more than 3400. Although we have won this war. But now, more and more deeply into the hinterland of Yizhou, nearly 40000 prisoners, how to deal with it? "


    Zhang said: "if all the prisoners are not handled properly, it will be a burden on us. We have a long journey. Even if Hanzhong provides food and grass, the transportation of food is not easy. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you mean?"


    Zhang Yan''s eyes were very sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "in extraordinary times, do extraordinary things. Nowadays, it is very important for us to take measures. He suggested that the 37000 prisoners should be killed and burned. Only in this way can we lighten our burden. In addition, we killed the captives, which was even more frightening to Yizhou soldiers and made Liu Zhang scared. "


    "Not right!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head and denies directly.


    He knew that Zhang''s intention was to beat Yizhou army thoroughly and make Liu Zhang''s generals cold. Just imagine that Zhang Xiu slaughtered more than 30000 prisoners. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu''s fierce power, who dares to resist Zhang Xiu again?


    However, Zhang Xiu does not want to be such a result.


    Zhang Xiu is not in Yizhou, and then ready to leave. The place he seized along the way was ready to completely take it for himself. To some extent, the Yizhou people are Zhang Xiu''s people, so Zhang Xiu is not willing to kill more.


    He didn''t want to be ostracized by Yizhou people.


    More than 30000 people have been killed, and countless people will be terrified by the killing.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to see.

 Chapter 736

    Seeing this, he asked, "if you don''t kill these people, what will the Lord do?"


    Zhang Xiu turns her mind and thinks in her heart.


    In his heart, there was a decision soon.


    However, Zhang Xiu didn''t say it. Instead, she arranged for someone to call Sima Yi and Pang Tong and tell them about the captives. Finally, she said, "what are you going to do with these 30000 Yizhou soldiers?"


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, I agree with Zhang''s suggestion. In troubled times, heavy allusions should be used. Nowadays, more than 30000 people have to eat. The food of every day is a bottomless pit. If they are left with a great burden on us. What''s more, it''s not easy to transport grain from Hanzhong to Chang''an. "


    He and Zhang Yan share the same opinion.


    Sima Yi''s mind turns.


    He has his own opinion, because before he and Pang Tong came, Zhang Yan put forward a proposal, but it was denied by Zhang Xiu. Obviously, the killing will not work.


    Sima Yi followed Zhang Xiu''s way of thinking and soon had a way of thinking.


    He understood Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord, I think that these prisoners should not be killed."


    Zhang xiudao said, "what''s Zhong Da''s opinion?"


    Sima Yi replied: "the reason is very simple. The direct slaughter of more than 30000 prisoners has a great impact on the reputation of the Lord. Although it will frighten the generals of Yizhou, it will also make the people of Yizhou resist the Lord. "


    "Of course, there are more than 30000 mouths, which is not easy to satisfy. It is suggested that the Lord should come out in person and give more than 30000 soldiers a full meal before releasing them to publicize his policy. In this way, more than 30000 people will appreciate the initiative. When they return to Yizhou, they will publicize everywhere, so that the Lord can win the hearts of Yizhou people. "


    Sima Yi said: "this is the humble proposal."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "what Zhong Da said is very deep in my heart. He who knows me is Zhong Da! "


    In fact, that''s what he thinks.


    Easy to kill!


    But after killing people, it''s hard to govern Yizhou again.


    Zhang Xiu is holding the mentality of seizing the whole Yizhou and governing Yizhou. Therefore, from the perspective of the overall situation, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to kill too much. We must let the people of Yizhou believe that Zhang Xiu loves the people more than Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang, and let the people turn to Zhang Xiu.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Sima Yi said: "despicable job immediately to arrange, first let the prisoners eat a full meal, and then put all the prisoners together in the school, please master lecture."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Sima Yi leaves in a hurry. When Pang Tong hears this, he doesn''t think that Sima Yi has won Zhang Xiu''s favor. What''s worse. From a military point of view, he said in a deep voice: "Lord, the elite of 30000 or 40000 people, to release them all is tantamount to abandoning the tiger to the mountain. Is this appropriate?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "today, they are not as good as us. What''s more, they have weakened their morale. You can rest assured that we will win this battle. "


    He has a bright smile on his face and is very confident.


    Pang Tong said, "I believe in the Lord."


    Zhang jaw did not say much, he just need to implement the arrangement of Zhang Xiu. After all, whether the prisoners are killed or not, there is a certain truth. About half an hour later, Sima Yi came back and reported, "my Lord, all the prisoners have eaten and have gathered."


    "Let''s go!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    He took Zhang Ya, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others to the military camp in Jiameng pass. Down the tower, came to the barracks, Zhang Xiu saw the surrender of a prisoner.


    Nearly 40000 prisoners are standing in the school yard. It''s amazing.


    Head by head, head by head.


    Zhang Xiu looked up and saw thin and anxious faces. All the prisoners who surrendered were exhausted and anxious after a fight last night.


    They don''t know what kind of treatment they will receive or how they will be dealt with.


    After Zhang Xiu took back her eyes, she said in a loud voice: "I''m Zhang Xiu. I''ve come to see you today. There are two things."


    Everybody, cheer up.


    A pair of eyes, staring at Zhang Xiu, sharp eyes.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "first of all, all the prisoners you are present, I will release you just as I released my elder martial brother Zhang. All of you will be free to go down the Jiameng pass and return to your army and hometown! "


    Boom!!


    This remark caused an uproar.


    All the prisoners began to talk, with a look of shock on their faces. They are prisoners. Generally speaking, the prisoners are first integrated, then slaughtered, and rarely released.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers, did not interrupt, also did not stop, just quietly did not speak.


    After a long time, the voice gradually subsided.Everyone''s eyes once again converge on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiuhan said, "well, since you don''t talk any more. I went on to say that there are three reasons why I didn''t kill you and let you return to your respective armies and Chengdu. "


    "First, I will capture my elder martial brother Zhang Renhou alive outside Baishui County. Zhang Ren said in front of me that Yizhou people are simple and honest, and life is not easy. All the people in your army are ordinary soldiers. It''s not easy for them to support their families. "


    "So I will not detain you and release you."


    "Second, you are now living in Yizhou. It seems that you are living a good life, but in fact you are not living a good life. My official came to Yizhou not for aggression, but for the benefit of the common people. All the districts under the rule of this official will reduce taxes and corvee, and Yizhou is no exception. "


    "I want you people who have never been out of Shu to live better."


    "Third, to let you go back is to let you and more people know that I don''t want to do more killing. Under Liu Zhang''s administration, Yizhou suffered from wars in successive years, which made it difficult to convince the public. I don''t want the people in Yizhou to fall into war. So, I came to Sichuan. To release you is to let more people know the ruling idea of our official. "


    Zhang Xiu talks, and her words are full of bewitching.


    He wants these 30000 or 40000 soldiers to become a sharp weapon to publicize him, so that all the people in Yizhou know that Zhang Xiu is not indiscriminately killing innocent people, and more and more people know that he recognizes him.


    When the prisoners heard this, their faces were even more joyful.


    They can survive.


    They can go back safely.


    In the hearts of the soldiers, they are grateful for the relationship between Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu as well as Zhang Xiu''s benevolence.


    Otherwise, they will not go back.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, motioned all the soldiers to be quiet, and said again: "the second thing that I want to involve is that you go all the way south. I have nothing to give you. I can only give you a full meal and some dry food. I''ve already had my meal. Now, you get dry food in turn and leave Jiameng pass


    The prisoner was even more excited.


    It''s a long way for these soldiers to go to the south.


    You have to have something to eat.


    It''s hard to move without food.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything more. As soon as she waved her hand, some soldiers began to prepare to distribute food. One by one, the prisoners received a small amount of dry food in the army, and then left in a hurry.


    Most of the soldiers left Jiameng pass, but a few of them, about 3000 people, chose to stay. They were unwilling to leave and wanted to stay to serve Zhang Xiu.


    For the soldiers who want to stay and serve, Zhang Xiu takes all the soldiers.


    At this time, a rush of footsteps sounded.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and said something in a low voice. Hearing the color change behind, Zhang Xiu immediately turned around and left the school yard, went straight back to the city floor of Jiameng pass, and summoned civil servants and military generals to discuss the matter.

 Chapter 737

    Zhang Xiu looked around at the crowd with a solemn look on her face and said: "just received the news from the royal guards, Cao Cao and Liu Bei united to attack Nanyang County directly. In addition, Yuan Shao sent troops from Jizhou and directly attacked Hanoi Prefecture. "


    "Today, we are, so to speak, facing the greatest threat."


    "In Chang''an, Xu Shu has made a dispatch. The fierce tiger army was led by Ganning, and Jia Xu served as a military adviser. He went north to Hanoi county to resist the attack of Yuan Shao''s army. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in addition, Xu Shu has sent 800 Li to Jingzhou to send Huang Zhong from Jiangxia to Xiangyang to resist Cao Cao and Liu Bei who may go south."


    The crowd gasped.


    The expression on each face was extremely solemn. No one thought that at the crucial time of attacking Yizhou, he was suddenly attacked by Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time.


    This is a great pressure for Zhang Xiu.


    On the strength of Zhang Xiu alone, it is not difficult to compete with or even defeat Yuan Shao. Similarly, if Zhang Xiu wants to fight Cao Cao alone, she is sure to win. As for the last Liu Bei, it can be ignored.


    The three armies are united, but they are different.


    For Zhang Xiu, this force is in danger of overturning if she is not careful. We must treat it with caution.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and continued: "the current situation is very dangerous. How do you want to break the enemy? Now, we have no time to go back to Chang''an. Once it is withdrawn from Chang''an, it will be a waste of time and will not help the overall situation. "


    Sima Yi and Pang Tong quickly turned their minds and thought about the strategy to break the enemy in the current situation.


    Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun, Sha Moke, Zhang Yan, and a Guli all pondered carefully, with a look of incomparable solemnity. Because the current situation is too tense.


    Seeing that they were still thinking, Zhang Xiu said, "in view of the fact that Ganning and Jia Xu led the fierce tiger army north to Hanoi County, we don''t care about Yuan Shao''s attack for the time being. As for Chang''an, there is another Langya camp where Chen arrived, so we don''t need to take charge of Chang''an. Now what we have to do is to deal with the war in Nanyang County. "


    Chang''an is the base camp, and there must be garrison troops.


    Once Chang''an is attacked.


    That''s more terrible.


    Sima Yi thought for a while and said: "the current situation, as the LORD said, focuses on Nanyang County. Huang Zhong will go to Hanoi county. Even if Huang Zhong fails or Hanoi county is lost, there will be delays in Hongnong and other places. If necessary, the Langya camp in Chang''an can be dispatched to help. "


    "So what we need to do now is to make a choice between Nanyang County and Yizhou."


    "I think there are two choices."


    "First, let Cao Cao and Liu Bei capture Nanyang County. Then, let Huang Zhong rely on his own strength to block the alliance of Cao Cao and Liu Bei to the north of Xiangyang and make them trapped in Nanyang County. "


    "During this period of time, we took advantage of the situation to attack hard, and went south to pass Jianmen pass, to Chengdu. As long as Chengdu is captured and Liu Zhang is killed, the army can be transferred to Jingzhou. "


    "At that time, we will be able to join Huang Zhong''s army to resist Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s army."


    Sima Yi said: "this is a choice. The second choice is our plan to capture Yizhou. We have to put it on hold. Next, we will take Jiameng pass as a base to defend and not go south any more. "


    "The main forces rushed north to Hanzhong, from Hanzhong to Nanyang County of Jingzhou. The advantage of this is that we can quickly rescue Nanyang County and not put Nanyang County in danger. "


    "It''s also flawed."


    "This time Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei attacked at the same time. It should be that Liu Zhang arranged for people to ask Cao Cao and others for help, which eventually led to our simultaneous attack."


    Sima Yi said: "under such a premise, once we withdraw the soldiers who attacked Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang is likely to organize the army to counter attack. Where we have captured, there may be a crisis. "


    After a short pause, Sima Yi said: "however, the humble position suggests that the two evils should be the least. At present, Huang Zhong is in Jingzhou and Gan Ning and Jia Xu are in Hanoi. They can hold on for the time being. The humble position suggests that they drive straight into Chengdu and capture Chengdu. Kill Liu Zhang in Yizhou first, and then consider attacking Jingzhou. "


    This is war.


    Since it is a war, there must be disputes and choices. Even if the choice is extremely difficult, you have to make a choice.


    Sima Yi thinks Yizhou is more important.


    Pang Tong shook his head and said, "no, I''m against seizing Yizhou first. If there is no Zhang Ren stationed at Jianmen pass, we can take advantage of the situation to go south and cross the Jinniu Road and Jianmen pass without destroying Liu Ruo and Ling Bao. "


    "But now, Zhang Ren is in Jianmen pass, and the terrain is more dangerous and difficult to attack than xiegu pass. Even if Zhang Ren''s troops were small, we would not be able to win. "


    "Even if we do our best, it will be very difficult and it will take a long time."


    "So, it''s not worth it."


    "The most important thing is that Liu Zhang''s ability is weak. Zhang Ren is not valued now. Lingbao and Liu Ruo are killed. If we release tens of thousands of soldiers to go back, Liu Zhang will be in a mess.""Even if Liu Zhang wanted to attack, he was weak and had insufficient fighting capacity."


    Pang Tong continued, "Liu Zhang''s threat to us is very small. Let''s look at Cao Cao and Liu Bei. No matter who you are, you are not good at it. "


    "Once Cao Cao and Liu Bei are allowed to seize Nanyang County, or even enter Xiangyang to seize part of Jingzhou, it will be even more unfavorable to our situation."


    "Therefore, I am against abandoning Jingzhou and attacking Yizhou."


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "on the contrary, I think we should postpone the attack on Yizhou, mobilize the main forces, and spare no effort to destroy the coalition forces of Cao Cao and Liu Bei."


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly.


    Zhang Xiu agrees with Pang Tong''s final analysis.


    Liu Zhang''s threat is small.


    Cao Cao and Liu Bei pose a great threat. Once their strength increases, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    Zhang Yan took the words and said: "Lord, in fact, there are some differences between Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Before that, Cao Cao went all out to attack Liu Bei. He wanted to take Liu Bei down and take control of Yuzhou. "


    "Now, Liu Bei follows Cao Cao''s advice and attacks Jingzhou with Cao Cao."


    "Of course, putting aside the hatred between the Lord and Liu Bei, Liu Bei will go all out to attack Jingzhou. If there are not enough interests, it is certainly impossible."


    Zhang said: "so humble bold speculation, Cao Cao certainly promised to Liu Bei benefits, Liu Bei will agree."


    "Jingzhou!"


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi answered in unison.


    When they looked at each other, the light flashed in their eyes, and they understood it immediately.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "what you said is that in the case of contradiction between Cao Cao and Liu Bei, if Cao Cao wants Liu Bei to go south, he will promise to give up Jingzhou to Liu Bei. Only in this way can Liu Bei send troops. As for whether Yuzhou, where Liu Bei lived, should be handed over to Cao Cao, it is not known. This situation is difficult to judge. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi spoke together.


    Zhang Xiu had made a decision in her heart. She no longer asked the people, saying: "Cao Cao and Liu Bei led the army to Nanyang County. We really need to make a plan to deal with it."


    "But we can''t afford to lose the other."


    "In Yizhou, we should stick to it. Today, Liu Zhang''s forces are almost crippled. Even if he counterattacks, his strength is weak, so we must keep the territory we have now. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "led by Zhang Ya, 20000 regular troops and 20000 flying Qiang troops will stay in Jiameng pass and strive to continue to go south. Pang Tong stayed and helped Zhang Yan to capture Yizhou. "


    "Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong, shamoke and Zhang Yan''s 20000 Heishan troops retreated with their officers and went north to Hanzhong. Then, we went to Shangyong County in Hanzhong and went east to Nanyang County. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "today, most of Nanyang County is still in our hands. It should not be difficult to enter."


    "I''ll do it


    All of us should go down together.


    One by one, they all cheer up.


    Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and ordered him to arrange for the next war. After arranging everything, Zhang Xiu stopped staying and immediately mobilized her troops to leave Jiameng pass and head north for Hanzhong.

 Chapter 738

    Luyang county is located in the north of Nanyang County.


    Once in Luyang County, Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao and captured Cao ang and others, which eventually laid the foundation for her foothold in Nanyang and won 3000 horses for her.


    Now Luyang county has been attacked by Cao Cao and Liu Bei.


    When Cao Cao attacked Nanyang County, he mobilized 50000 elite soldiers, and even more elite tigers and leopards rode with him. When Liu Bei sent troops to join Cao Cao, he also sent 20000 troops.


    Liu Bei in Runan County, but also left a certain number of troops to guard.


    Because although he is now united with Cao Cao, but he has not yet handed over Yuzhou Runan, still occupy a considerable number of places. According to the agreement between Liu Bei and Cao Cao, the area north of Xinye in Nanyang County captured by Cao Cao and Liu Bei in this battle belongs to Cao Cao. The area to the south of Xinye belongs to Liu Bei.


    In addition, Cao Cao had to send troops south with Liu Bei to help Liu Bei capture Jingzhou. After Liu Bei captured Jingzhou, he established himself in Xiangyang, and then he would give up Yuzhou, Runan and other places.


    This is a deal between Liu Bei and Cao Cao.


    Both sides get what they need!


    At the same time, it is also the territory of Zhang Xiu.


    After Cao Cao and Liu Bei conquered Luyang County, neither Cao Cao nor Liu Bei ever stationed in the city. Instead, they led their troops outside the city. However, Cao Cao arranged a few soldiers to enter Luyang county to control it.


    The army took a rest in Luyang county and continued to move south.


    All the way south from Luyang County, with Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s soldiers, all the places along the way can''t resist.


    All the counties have fallen.


    Even Wan County, Xinye and other important towns have fallen. When Cao Cao kept going south and approached Chaoyang County, Huang Zhong''s troops went north from Jiangxia County, arrived in Xiangyang, and finally settled down in Xiangyang.


    Huang Zhong never went north to Nanyang County.


    The total number of troops under Huang Zhong''s command is 30000. Only relying on the 30000 flying bear army can''t stop the army of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Under this premise, Huang Zhong and Kuai Liang decided to give up Nanyang County and stay in Xiangyang with all their strength to wait for reinforcements.


    This news has spread to the table of Cao Cao''s case.


    When Cao Cao got the news, he didn''t care about Huang Zhong''s transfer. What he wants to do now is to work together with Liu Bei to conquer Jingzhou directly, break Xiangyang, let Liu Bei take charge of Jingzhou, and let Liu Bei fight with Zhang Xiu.


    This is Cao Cao''s intention.


    Just when Cao Cao and Liu Bei captured Chaoyang County and went south to Deng county. A sentinel quickly ran to Cao Cao and reported: "Sikong, there is an urgent report."


    Cao Cao took over the information and opened it up for inspection. After watching it, he waved his hand to let the sentry down, then called Guo Jia and Xun you, saying: "just received the news, Zhang Xiu quickly withdrew from Yizhou, from the east of Hanzhong to the East, and has entered Wudang county to the west of Nanyang County. Now, Zhang Xiu may lead the army to the South and attack us directly. What should we do next? "


    Guo Jia asked, "my Lord, what''s his strength?"


    Cao Cao said: "according to the war report, Zhang Xiu''s military strength is about 20000, less than 30000."


    "Opportunity


    Guo Jia''s eyes flashed a light, said: "Zhang Xiu with less than twenty or thirty thousand troops, dare to kill alone. This time, we have a total of 70000 people. "


    "Our troops alone have 50000 elite troops, and Liu Bei''s 20000 elite troops. It''s very easy to defeat this army of Zhang Xiu. "


    "I suggest that the army continue to go south. After seizing Deng County, they change their attitude and rush north to attack Zhang Xiu''s army. Now Deng county is around the corner. After taking Deng County, some soldiers are stationed here to prevent Huang Zhong of Jingzhou from going north to join Zhang Xiu. Our main forces concentrated on attacking Zhang Xiu. "


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu is the core of the whole Guanzhong army. As long as we defeat Zhang Xiu, it''s easy to destroy her territory. "


    Xun you said in a deep voice: "to capture the thief and the king, what filial piety says is very true. Lord, I agree with the proposal of filial piety. This time, first solve the South Nanyang County Zhang Xiu. In recent years, Zhang Xiu has been fighting many battles, so that he is arrogant. With just over 20000 troops, we dare to fight. "


    Cao Cao stroked his beard under his jaw and nodded: "although Zhang Xiu''s troops are not many, they can''t be underestimated. For Zhang Xiu, we must not take it lightly. "


    "What the LORD said is true


    Guo Jia, Xun you and others agreed.


    Those who are enemies of Zhang Xiu have seen the power of Zhang Xiu. It''s not only Zhang Xiu''s martial arts, but also her drinking capacity, and her ability to fight with soldiers.


    Cao Cao said, "come on


    After the soldiers entered, Cao Cao said, "go to Liu Bei''s barracks immediately and invite Liu Bei to come and discuss the issue of sending troops."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers went to send orders. Not long after that, Liu Bei came in a hurry.


    This time, Liu Bei came with Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang. When it comes to discussing the strategy of sending troops, Liu Bei must take Zhuge Liang with him. Guan Yu is like his shadow.Liu Bei bowed his hand and said, "what''s the matter with Sikong


    Cao Cao said: "I just got the news that the army led by Zhang Xiu has entered from Wudang county to the west of Nanyang County. Today''s Zhang Xiu leads a large army and comes straight at us. "


    Liu Bei said, "did Zhang Xiu give up Yizhou?"


    Cao Cao nodded, said: "in the face of yuan Benchu, the official and Xuande''s attack, the full three armies to kill, Zhang Xiu can only give up Yizhou."


    "But you can''t give up. At the beginning, I got the news that Zhang Xiu led 60000 or 70000 troops to attack Liu Zhang. Now, he has only withdrawn with less than 30000 troops. It can be seen that some troops are left in Yizhou to continue to attack Liu Zhang. "


    "Now Zhang Xiu''s troops are less than 30000."


    "I thought about it. When we captured Deng County, Zhang Xiu at that time might be close to Yin county. At that time, we will rush northward to fight against Zhang Xiu and try to annihilate her first. "


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "as long as Zhang Xiu is defeated, it will be as easy as a palm to seize her territory. Xuande, what do you think? "


    Liu Bei thought carefully.


    He didn''t think there was anything good about going north to attack Zhang Xiu. Because if Zhang Xiu is really annihilated, it will not be difficult to annihilate him with Cao Cao''s strength.


    This is Liu Bei''s consideration.


    Liu Bei had his own consideration and said slowly: "Cao Sikong, in my opinion, although Zhang Xiu''s troops are small, it may be a trap. It''s intended to attract us to the north."


    "After all, Zhang Xiu is very cunning."


    "Now that we have entered Deng County, we can enter Xiangyang by walking further south. As long as we win Xiangyang, it will be easier to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Before Zhang Xiu arrives in Xiangyang, let''s wipe out Huang Zhong''s main force. If we take Deng county and go north, it is very likely that Huang Zhong will go north. Once Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu meet, his strength will be enhanced. "


    Liu Bei said: "it will be very difficult to wipe out Zhang Xiu at that time."


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed.


    Cao Cao is very clear about Liu Bei''s intention. Liu Bei is worried that he will tear down the bridge. Therefore, Liu Bei suggested that he attack Xiangyang in the South first. At that time, Liu Bei can have a foothold in Xiangyang.


    At that time, when Zhang Xiu went south, Cao Cao had to rely on Liu Bei''s strength to destroy Zhang Xiu.


    If we go north now, almost all the counties in Nanyang County are occupied by Cao Cao''s strength. Under this premise, Liu Bei has no sense of security and is unwilling to go north.


    Cao Cao''s heart was like a mirror, saying: "Xuande, when we go north, I will leave some troops stationed in Deng county to stop Huang Zhong going north. In this way, Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong could not meet. And our coalition forces can go all out to encircle and suppress Zhang Xiu. Xuande, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We should seize it. "


    After a pause, Cao Cao continued: "Xuande, you have been in Jingzhou, you know the city of Xiangyang. Xiangyang City is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you want to attack, you can''t capture it overnight. Now, it''s better to go north first to solve Zhang Xiu''s army. "

 Chapter 739

    Liu Bei insisted that he would not relax and said again: "Cao Sikong, our army, has arrived in Deng County, adjacent to Xiangyang. You just need to go south again to capture Xiangyang. It''s a pity to miss the opportunity we''re going to get. "


    "No, Xuande Miao!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "as I have said just now, Xiangyang City is solid, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the army goes south to Xiangyang, we will not be able to capture it in a short time. At that time, Zhang Xiu will go south from Wudang County, but it will cut off our retreat. At that time, we will not only face the attack of Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong, but also the lack of food supplies. "


    Both Liu Bei and Cao Cao have their own plans and ideas.


    They all have their own plans.


    Liu Bei said, "Cao Sikong is afraid of Zhang Xiu."


    Cao Cao frowned. He found that his persuasion didn''t work at all. Liu Bei still didn''t want to change his mind. On such a premise, it is quite detrimental to the overall situation.


    Cao Cao was silent for a moment and said again, "Xuande, when fighting on the battlefield, we can''t care about the gains and losses of one city and one place. Otherwise, at the end of the day, we will definitely lose a lot. "


    Liu Bei sneered.


    Regardless of the gains and losses of one city and one place.


    Cao Cao has a thick face and a black heart. He is a thief of everything. He has dealt with Cao Cao. He is familiar with Cao Cao''s character and involves Cao Cao''s territory. Cao Cao is a penny pincher and will not fall behind at all.


    Therefore, Liu Bei is not willing to give in and is ready to refute.


    At this time, Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, in my opinion, Cao Sikong''s words are quite reasonable. If we don''t solve Zhang Xiu''s problem now, the consequences will be the most serious. We can only solve Zhang Xiu first, and then consider other aspects. "


    When Liu Bei heard this, he swallowed what he said.


    He believed in Zhuge Liang.


    Because of Zhuge Liang''s plan, he can have today. And he believed that Zhuge Liang would certainly plan for him.


    After hearing Zhuge Liang''s words, Cao Cao finally showed a smile on his slightly dark face and said with admiration, "ZHUGE''s military adviser said that our current situation, we have no choice but to kill Zhang Xiu first. As long as you take Zhang Xiu, everything is easy to say. If Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong meet, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "what Cao Sikong said is true."


    Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and asked, "Xuande, now Zhuge''s military advisers have made their stand. What do you think?"


    Liu Bei said, "the advice of the military adviser is what I mean."


    "Well, that''s settled."


    Cao Cao said confidently: "when we take Deng County, I will arrange Cao Hong to lead some soldiers to guard here. Then we went north to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "No problem!"


    Liu Bei responded directly.


    He didn''t stay much, so he got up and left. He took Zhuge Liang to leave, went back to his barracks, looked at Zhuge Liang, and said: "commander, Cao Cao wants to attack Zhang Xiu first. It is very possible that he is ready to unite with us to defeat Zhang Xiu. After defeating Zhang Xiu, maybe he will attack with us. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord''s consideration is reasonable. However, in the current situation, I think that Cao Cao''s abacus is good, but things may not be the same as Cao Cao thought. "


    "How do you say that?" Liu Bei asked


    Zhuge Liang explained: "whether it''s Cao Cao or us, we all have a hand in hand with Zhang Xiu. Especially when we attacked Lujiang County, we saw the strength of Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang continued: "Zhang Xiu, by virtue of her weak troops, made a hole in Liu Biao and harmed us. This kind of Zhang Xiu is not easy to be compared with. Cao Cao wants to fight Zhang Xiu, and he is full of confidence, but he may not succeed in the end. "


    Liu Bei said, "what if Zhang Xiu is really destroyed?"


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "with Zhang Xiu''s strength, even if Zhang Xiu is destroyed, Cao Cao''s troops will suffer a huge loss. The Lord thought, did Cao Cao at that time have the spare power to destroy us? When Cao Xiu knew that he was going to attack, I was worried about Zhang Xiu


    "Yes


    Liu Bei''s concise answer.


    Zhuge Liang said: "in fact, Cao Cao can''t have such strength. After all, Zhang Xiu is not an easy match. That''s why I said, "my Lord, don''t worry at all."


    Liu Bei thought about it carefully and said, "it''s better for the military division to think carefully."


    Zhuge Liang continued: "in fact, we are at war with Zhang Xiu. It is gratifying to destroy Zhang Xiu. If we can''t get rid of Zhang Xiu, we can weaken Zhang Xiu and take this opportunity to weaken Cao Cao''s power. "


    When Liu Bei heard this, a light flashed in his eyes and asked, "how to weaken Cao Cao?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "the snipe and the clam fight for the benefit of Weng. If Cao Cao wants to kill Zhang Xiu, he is bound to do his best. He can''t destroy Zhang Xiu. The army under his command must be damaged and affected. "


    "Under this premise, Cao Cao''s strength naturally weakened. The threat to Yuzhou will be reduced if the strength of Cao Cao is not better than that of the past. We can''t get rid of Zhang Xiu and return to Yuzhou. Cao Cao can''t attack Yuzhou in a short time. "Zhuge Liang said: "in this way, Yuzhou is safer."


    Liu Bei was glad to hear that and said, "if it wasn''t for the military division, it would have missed a big event."


    Zhuge Liang said: "however, Cao Cao is not easy to be compared with. He said that after seizing Deng County, Cao Hong would be stationed in Deng county. In fact, there is another meaning, that is, if he strangles Deng County, he will strangle our main road to the south. "


    "Under such circumstances, Cao Cao can take the initiative."


    "But Cao Cao''s calculation is not good either, for he ignores General Huang Zhong under Zhang Xiu''s command. Huang Zhong is a man with excellent martial arts skills. He is also good at fighting, especially with the help of people from Jingzhou. "


    "Once Huang Zhong gets the news that our army is going north and Zhang Xiu is killed, he will probably send troops to attack Deng county. At that time, the troops led by Cao Hong will bear the brunt of the attack. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "the weak forces led by Cao Hong, even in Deng County, may not be able to stop Huang Zhong''s army. At this point, we can even divide our forces and take the initiative to meet Huang Zhong, destroy Huang Zhong and head south first. "


    Liu Bei said, "the military adviser is very worried."


    Immediately, Liu Bei''s face, but there is a dignified, deep voice: "military, I have a worry!"


    Zhuge Liang said, "please make it public."


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "in the last civil war in Jingzhou, we fought Zhang Xiu in Jiangxia county. At that time, after the third brother died, it fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu. According to our information, the third brother was captured by Zhang Xiu. Will the third younger brother be involved in this battle? "


    "Maybe, maybe not!"


    Zhuge Liang looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "it depends on how Zhang Xiu arranges it, but no matter what, we must be psychologically prepared. Please take the humble position as the main task


    "Alas..."


    When Liu Bei heard this, he sighed.


    The so-called overall situation first is to give up Zhang Fei and ignore Zhang Fei''s affairs.


    Zhuge Liang felt numb when he thought about Zhang Fei. In fact, he didn''t know how to solve it. After all, it involved the three brothers of Liu Bei. He could only comfort himself by saying: "today''s situation can only be seen step by step. Wait until that step, and then consider how to face. My Lord is worried now, and it doesn''t help. "


    "I understand," Liu said


    After Liu Bei and Cao Cao''s troops entered Deng County, they were still very successful, so they captured Deng county.


    After all, in today''s Nanyang County, there is no Zhang Xiu''s army stationed, which can not resist the coalition forces of Cao Cao and Liu Bei.


    It''s normal for Deng county to sink.


    After Cao Cao captured Deng County, he arranged Cao Hong to lead 10000 elite troops to garrison Deng county and guard Huang Zhong''s way to the north. Then, Cao Cao and Liu Bei led the army to the North quickly.


    Even if Cao Cao left 10000 elite soldiers in Deng County, and Liu Bei still had 60000 elite soldiers, their strength still far exceeded that of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 740

    The army led by Zhang Xiu entered Wudang County of Nanyang County from Hanzhong. After arriving at Wudang, the army rested for two days. After all, when I was in Hanzhong before, I rushed all the way, which made the soldiers very tired.


    Now entering Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu is completely relieved. You other news, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s coalition, has not left Nanyang County, Nanyang County is still raiding.


    In this regard, Zhang Xiu is more assured.


    As long as Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s troops did not enter Xiangyang, the impact would be small.


    Now it just affects Nanyang.


    After Zhang Xiu had rested for two days, when she set out to continue to go south, the royal guards sent back news that after Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s allied forces captured Deng County, they did not continue to go south, but turned their direction and killed Zhang Xiu all the way.


    Obviously, the intention of Cao Cao and Liu Bei is to fight Zhang Xiu directly.


    Zhang Xiu got the news, did not stop on the road, the army is still on the road, South straight to Yin county. Today''s Yin County, in fact, is still in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao and Liu Bei went down from the south of Luyang County, only to capture the main counties in the east of Nanyang County, and did not divide their forces to attack the west of Nanyang County. Because at the beginning, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s intention was to Xiangyang in Jingzhou.


    When Zhang Xiu came out of Wudang County, Cao Cao changed his intention.


    Near noon, Zhang Xiu and Sima Yi sat opposite each other.


    As they were eating, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Zhongda, we have only 3000 white horses and more than 20000 black mountain troops in this battle. The number of troops is far less than that of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. If we want to win this battle, we must take advantage of it! "


    Sima Yi''s eyes were calm, and said slowly: "along the way, I''m thinking about my humble position. My humble intention is to use the flying balls of Hu Mo and others. "


    "Before that, when I was in baishuiguan, I used the flying ball to break the baishuiguan. Now, you can also use the flying ball to surprise Cao Cao and Liu Bei. "


    "Of course, it''s not easy to fight head-on or take other tactics."


    Sima Yi said: "so the focus of this battle is to use these 43 flying balls."


    Hu Mo and others were with the army.


    As for the rest of Hu Mo and other people who lived in Zhang Xiu''s north, they had already joined them. These people quickly entered Hanzhong, then went to Chang''an and lived in Chang''an.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought quickly.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, how far is the alliance between Cao Cao and Liu Bei from Yin county? It''s expected to be a few days away. "


    Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "tell Taiwei that Cao Cao is about two days away from Yin county."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "we are less than half a day away from Yin county. In this way, we went to Yin county first and took Yin County as a stronghold to fight with Cao Cao. I think about the specific plan in this way... "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the detailed plan.


    After explaining the plan, Sima Yi said solemnly, "the Lord''s plan is no problem. However, the specific operation is not easy. If any one of them fails, I''m afraid it will fail. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "no plan is possible. The reason why a plan is called a plan is that there may be risks and changes. At present, it is necessary to follow this plan. "


    Sima Yi said, "what the LORD said is true."


    The general direction of the plan, Sima Yi quickly arranged.


    The army set out and went on to Yin county.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Yin County, it was temporarily stationed in Yin county. After the army stationed in Yin County, Zhang Xiu quickly mobilized the equipment for guarding the city, as well as the bow and crossbow, catapult, etc., all of which were placed in the city, and arranged to go on one thing after another to prepare for the defense.


    If we want to fight in Yin County, we must make sufficient preparations.


    Otherwise, we will not be able to guard the county.


    When Zhang Xiu is busy preparing the equipment to resist, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s army are getting closer and closer to Yin county. Cao Cao also got the news, knowing that Zhang Xiu was stationed in Yin County, he sneered.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention is obviously to hold down his army.


    But it''s not that easy.


    Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s army continued on their way. When they arrived in Yin County, it was August. At this time of the weather, has begun to cool autumn, less hot summer.


    Breeze blowing, the air a little bit more cool, making people feel comfortable.


    The army arrived outside the South Gate of Yin county and stationed troops outside the city.


    The army is in great array.


    There are more than 60000 elite troops stationed outside the city. The dark army gives people a great sense of oppression. The army is so black that it''s hard to breathe.


    At this moment, Cao Cao is in high spirits.


    At this moment, Cao Cao showed his heart to the full.


    Once upon a time, Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu were at war in Nanyang County. As soon as they entered Luyang County, they were beaten head-on and defeated at the expense of Zhang Xiu. In the whole process of fighting, Cao Cao was led by the nose by Zhang Xiu, and he was extremely subdued.Once upon a time, Zhang Xiu went to Xudu in person. At that time, Zhang Xiu''s momentum was like a rainbow. She fought with the public for wine and the general for martial arts, which made Cao Cao''s civil and military generals unable to raise their heads.


    Now, Cao Cao wants to get it back.


    Now, it''s him who''s in the city.


    Cao Cao shakes his sleeve robe and rides his horse steadily. He says in a loud voice: "where is Zhang Xiu, my official Cao Cao?"


    "Oh, I didn''t expect Sikong to arrive. I''m afraid it''s too late." With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "I just don''t know what identity Sikong came to Yinxian. If Sikong is in the relationship of Weng''s son-in-law, I can set up a banquet and invite my father-in-law to drink a thin glass of wine. If Sikong comes as a great man, I''m afraid I''ll have to fight with swords, guns and sticks? "


    After hearing that, Cao Cao was amused.


    It''s still a familiar recipe.


    It''s still familiar.


    Zhang Xiu is still like this, a mouth does not forgive people, extremely sharp.


    Cao Cao held his head high and threw his head to the ground, saying: "Zhang Xiu, my official, by the order of the emperor, went to Nanyang County, not to attack the city and plunder the land, but to seek justice for Liu Zhang. It''s unreasonable for you to attack Liu Zhang in Yizhou for no reason, and it''s not in accordance with the law and discipline of the imperial court. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Sikong has already entered Nanyang County. The thief has done it, but he says that he is not a thief. He is here to catch the thief. This is a kind of rhetorical statement. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Sikong, I don''t want to talk to you. Now, I have something to say to Liu Bei. Liu Bei and Sikong join hands to attack Nanyang County and shout him out. "


    When Cao Cao heard this, he frowned.


    Zhang Xiu must have a plan.


    Only in front of the two armies, Zhang Xiu made a request, and Liu Bei was really in front of the army, so Cao Cao couldn''t refuse, so he had to look back at Liu Bei.


    Da! Da!


    Liu Bei galloped forward and stood behind Cao Cao. He threw his horse to the ground and said in a voice: "Zhang Xiu, you are responsible for this scene today. You deserve it. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Liu Xuande hates me so much. It''s just that you''re trying to kill me. But can you kill me? "


    Liu Bei said, "today you are doomed."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "everyone can boast. Since we meet, I have a man here to let Xuande see us. "


    With a wave of Zhang Xiu''s hand, Zhang Fei is brought out.


    Boom!!


    When Liu Bei saw Zhang Fei, he seemed to have thunder in his mind. In an instant, Liu Bei''s mind was blank, and he was stunned in the same place. He opened his mouth to speak, but he didn''t know what to say.


    Third brother!


    That''s his third brother.

 Chapter 741

    In the past, Liu Bei was ambushed by Zhang Xiu in Jiangxia County, and he was trapped in a tight encirclement. It was Zhang Fei who knocked him unconscious and asked Zhuge Liang to take him away. Finally, Zhang Fei cut off Zhang Xiu himself and blocked the attack.


    Liu Bei''s life can be said to have been exchanged by Zhang Fei. Without Zhang Fei''s fearlessness to die, Liu Bei could not have stood here and had already been killed.


    Two lines of clear tears suddenly flowed from Liu Bei''s eyes. The tears ran across my face and fell on it. Even Liu Bei''s body was shaking slightly.


    He murmured to himself at first. At last, he couldn''t control his emotion and tried his best to roar: "third brother!"


    A third brother, full of Liu Bei''s brotherhood.


    Cao Cao saw all this in his eyes, but there was a trace of contempt in his eyes. He admired Liu Bei''s toughness. It''s not easy to be a tough person who can fight and defeat repeatedly.


    Therefore, Cao Cao thinks that Liu Bei is a powerful man who can accomplish great things.


    But Cao Cao didn''t like Liu Bei''s tears. Seven foot man didn''t shed blood. No matter how big things you encounter, all you need to do is resist. What is tears?


    Zhang Fei in the tower, also see Liu Bei, immediately is tears wet eyes.


    Before that, Zhang Fei was captured in Jingzhou and sent to Chang''an.


    In Chang''an City, Zhang Fei was detained in a cell.


    Only cells are safe.


    After all, Zhang Fei''s martial arts, uninhibited custody up, is likely to escape. When Zhang Xiu learns that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are coming, Zhang Xiu sends a letter to Chang''an through the royal guards and asks Xu Shu to send someone to escort Zhang Fei out.


    All the way, Zhang Fei was imprisoned in the carriage, and his hands and feet were bound to avoid his escape.


    When Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei, he roared, "brother, don''t mind me, don''t mind me!"


    He doesn''t want Liu Bei to be constrained.


    When Liu Bei heard Zhang Fei''s words, his heart was more painful. Up to now, Zhang Fei is still thinking about his safety, still thinking about him, never thinking about his own safety.


    Liu Bei was in a state of confusion for a while.


    Zhuge Liang stood in the rear, and when he saw this scene, he suddenly had a flash in his mind.


    Before that, Liu Bei discussed with him and said that Zhang Fei might be involved in Zhang Xiu. Zhuge Liang''s reply at that time was to let Liu Bei put the overall situation first.


    At this moment, Zhuge Liang has another idea.


    He immediately stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Sikong, Zhang Xiu has three generals. As long as the three generals are in the hands of Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid the Lord can''t do his best. I suggest that we avoid this war for the time being. "


    When Cao Cao heard this, he secretly scolded Zhuge Liang for his cunning, which was clearly intentional. He used Zhang Fei to avoid the war.


    It is reasonable.


    Does Liu Bei care about Zhang Fei? However, Cao Cao is not a fuel-efficient lamp. His face look cold Su, deep voice way: "now Zhang Xiu is in front of you, in the city upstairs of Yin county."


    "To break Zhang Xiu, it''s in this battle."


    "My current strength is only 40000. With 40000 troops alone, it is almost very difficult to break Yin County, or even impossible. "


    "On this premise, Xuande wants to quit the war, not attack Zhang Xiu, but let me attack alone. Alas, I don''t have enough troops. Well, if we don''t attack Zhang Xiu, how about withdrawing our troops? "


    Cao Cao looked like a ruffian and said, "anyway, Liu Zhang''s threat will be eased for the time being."


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he looked rather embarrassed. His intention is to take advantage of Zhang Fei''s situation. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao was even more cunning and threatened to retreat.


    Liu Bei was also embarrassed.


    Liu Bei knows that it is not easy for him to get a foothold in Yuzhou. After all, Cao Cao''s strength is also very strong, let him stay in Yuzhou, Cao Cao can''t let it go. Therefore, Liu Bei must attack Zhang Xiu and seize Jingzhou as the foundation of his foothold.


    This is what Liu Bei has to do.


    Cao Cao''s eyes have a narrow, continue to say: "Xuande, we withdraw, how?"


    "No!"


    Liu Bei shook his head and answered.


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s heart is like a knife.


    When he was outside the city of Xiangyang in Jingzhou, he was bullied by Zhang Xiu, so that he didn''t protect Guan Ping. As a result, Guan Ping''s legs were forcibly trampled off by Guan Yu. Today, he has recovered.


    Now, outside the city of Yinxian County, he was bullied by Cao Cao again. Forced by the situation, he couldn''t manage Zhang Fei''s life and death. Even Liu Bei knows that once he ignores Zhang Fei''s life and death, Zhang Fei may be killed.


    Zhang Xiu couldn''t hear the conversation outside the city and didn''t care. She took a breath and said again, "Liu Bei, have you seen Zhang Fei? At the beginning, when he was in Jiangxia County, Zhang Fei was injured all over in order to delay time and block his official position. "


    "It took me more than a month to recover."


    "Now you, Liu Bei, have joined hands with Cao Cao to attack our official for the sake of only interests. Alas, how ever have you considered brotherhood. You, Liu Bei, have always been based on benevolence, righteousness and morality. Now, how can you be so ruthless? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you withdraw now, I won''t kill Zhang Fei and save his life.""No, big brother!"


    Zhang Fei spoke out loud.


    If Liu Bei withdraws now, it means that he is still in the hands of Zhang Xiu. As long as he is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, it means that Liu Bei will always be restrained by Zhang Xiu.


    This is what Zhang Fei doesn''t want.


    Zhang Fei roared: "big brother, attack, attack!"


    Zhang Xiu heard Zhang Fei''s cry, without any obstruction or interruption. After Zhang Fei finished, Zhang Xiu continued: "Liu Bei, did you hear Zhang Fei''s words? Zhang Fei is really a good brother and a good arm. For the sake of my brother''s foundation, I didn''t even care about my own life. If I had such a good brother as Zhang Xiu, I would die without regret. "


    Zhang Fei bit his teeth and glared at Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Bei stood outside the city of Yin County, his heart swaying.


    His heart seemed to be split, as if two villains were arguing. One is determined to save Zhang Fei''s life, the other is determined to attack Zhang Xiu and win Yin County in one go.


    Liu Bei was biting his teeth, trying to roar: "Zhang Xiu, the two armies are fighting, and innocent people will not be hurt. In our confrontation, you are now threatening your third brother''s life. It''s not a good way to do it. It''s not benevolent. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Liu Bei, Liu Bei, what you said is the funniest joke I heard. I didn''t expect you, Liu Bei, to say such childish words. "


    "The means are inferior?"


    "You, Liu Bei, and Cao Cao, quietly entered Nanyang County and caught me off guard. Isn''t it a mean and shameless way. You are open and aboveboard. Why don''t you send someone to inform you in advance and say hello, saying you want to attack Nanyang County. "


    "As for the loss of benevolence."


    "Hum, you Liu Bei and Cao Cao entered Nanyang County together, and killed many people who resisted along the way. They are all innocent, and they have never offended you. Why kill these soldiers? "


    Zhang Xiuyi put it bluntly and said, "you, Liu Bei, did not criticize me in front of Zhang Xiu, nor did you have the right to criticize me from the moral commanding point. When the two armies are at war, you want to kill me and I want to kill you. What else? I just said that if we want to fight, Zhang Fei will die. Unless you withdraw immediately. "


    Gudong!


    Liu Bei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart sank down, and there was a look of panic on his face.


    Cao Cao saw all this in his eyes.


    He is sad for Liu Bei in his heart, because once, he was threatened by Zhang Xiu. But now, it is Liu Bei who is under threat, and he has nothing to do with Cao Cao.

 Chapter 742

    In his eyes, Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was in a dilemma, but at this time, he had no choice. In fact, according to Zhuge Liang, the current situation can only be regardless of Zhang Fei''s life.


    Otherwise, the war will not continue.


    In particular, just now Zhuge Liang had persuaded Cao Cao to avoid the war because of Zhang Fei. But Cao Cao''s words made Zhuge Liang speechless. Zhuge Liang could only watch.


    Liu Bei is in a dilemma at the moment.


    For a moment, Liu Bei did not know how to answer.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "Liu Bei, it''s up to you to decide whether to save Zhang Fei''s life or to attack. Zhang Fei''s life and death are determined by your choice. "


    Liu Bei clenched his fist.


    There is nothing more difficult in life than to be in a difficult choice.


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I promise you!"


    Zhang xiudao: "yes, yes, Liu Bei, you made the smartest decision."


    For Zhang Xiu, as long as Liu Bei''s army retreated, it would be much easier to deal with Cao Cao. Of course, even if Liu Bei does not retreat, it does not affect that Zhang Xiu has the confidence and strength to face Cao Cao and Liu Bei.


    And Liu Bei''s choice, also let Zhang Xiu feel some regret. Because Zhang Xiu would rather Liu Bei give up Zhang Fei, in that case, Zhang Fei completely sad, maybe Zhang Xiu has a chance to surrender Zhang Fei.


    After this incident, Zhang Fei could not betray Liu Bei or abandon Liu Bei.


    This is the trade-off.


    You can''t have the best of both worlds.


    But Cao Cao''s face changed greatly, and he said harshly, "Liu Bei, do you really want to retreat? You have to be clear that you are now retreating because of Zhang Fei, and the future is endless. As long as Zhang Fei is in the hands of Zhang Xiu, from beginning to end, you can''t get rid of the threat of Zhang Xiu. This is the case today, and it will be the case in the future. "


    "I can''t manage so much. It''s my third brother."


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said that he would rather choose to save Zhang Fei''s life.


    This is the foundation of his foothold.


    Originally, when Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang talked about Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang suggested that Liu Bei should take the overall situation into consideration. But when it came to the end, Liu Bei found that he couldn''t do it. If he wants to make a choice, he must save Zhang Fei''s life.


    Cao Cao gritted his teeth and was angry.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Bei was such a wimp. Liu Bei''s doing this is tantamount to putting Cao Cao in a dilemma. Although Cao Cao had threatened Liu Bei before, he said that once Liu Bei retreated, he would also choose to retreat.


    In fact, that''s the threat.


    The army killed Nanyang County, let Cao Cao withdraw, he was not reconciled.


    Zhang Fei said, "do you hear me? Your elder brother is really a touching elder brother. I''m willing to withdraw for your life. "


    Zhang Fei saw all this in his eyes, and tears flowed down.


    Don''t play with tears!


    At this moment, Zhang Fei could not control the overflow of tears. The brotherhood between Zhang Fei and Liu Bei in the past 20 years, along with Liu Bei''s expeditions, clearly shows Liu Bei''s ambition.


    Let Liu Bei for him, give up full of ambition, this is let Liu Bei is very difficult, but Liu Bei still made a decision.


    "Brother!"


    "Let you leave me alone, why?"


    "Now you retreat, in the future, how do you face Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Fei murmured to himself that he was standing on the tower, his hands were still tied, which made Zhang Fei unable to move. That said, it does not affect Zhang Fei''s normal action.


    After all, there''s no rope on the leg.


    As Zhang Fei gritted his teeth, his bound hands were lifted up and put on the wall. Immediately, with the help of Zhang Fei''s strong body, he jumped out of the city wall and fell down from the tower of Yin county.


    "Big brother, be a brother in the afterlife!"


    When Zhang Fei fell, a cry came from his mouth.


    "Bang!"


    A dull crash, on the ground.


    Zhang Fei fell to the ground, his chest heaved twice, his mouth vomited blood, and his body twitched. A moment later, there was no breath, blood gurgling out of the mouth, forming a pool of blood on the ground.


    "Third brother!"


    Liu Bei''s eyes were wide open and his canthus were about to crack.


    At this moment, Liu Bei felt shivering all over. His whole body is full of pain and despair.


    Zhang Fei is dead!


    Zhang Fei in order not to let him subject, choose to jump down the tower to commit suicide.


    "Third brother!"


    In front of the rear army, Guan Yu yelled, his eyes widened and his face looked unbelievable. As soon as he patted the horse''s back, he quickly came forward with the soldiers and went straight to the city tower.


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Fei would choose to commit suicide under such circumstances.


    It''s admirable.


    But the matter has come to this point, Zhang Xiu has no way. When Guan Yu and his soldiers came near, Zhang Xiu didn''t let them shoot arrows, and let Guan Yu carry Zhang Fei''s body back.


    What he did was to respect Zhang Fei.In Zhang Xiu''s heart, she also wants to surrender Zhang Fei. Unfortunately, Zhang Fei is loyal to Liu Bei.


    Cao Cao stared at Zhang Fei''s body and said with emotion: "there is no more loyal and brave person than Zhang Fei. It''s admirable to have a strong and proud body. "


    Liu Bei turned over and dismounted, looking at the dead Zhang Fei, as if Zhang Fei''s mouth, but also with a smile in general.


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s heart was like a knife.


    In his mind, there was a flash of memories.


    Once upon a time, the three brothers became friends in Taoyuan.


    Once upon a time, the three brothers attacked Huangjin.


    Once upon a time, the three brothers fought against Lu Bu.


    Once


    There are too many who have


    Unconsciously, Liu Bei was already in tears. He clenched his fist, raised his head and yelled: "Zhang Xiu, I, Liu Bei, swear to heaven that I will never die with you. If I don''t kill you, Zhang Xiu, I will never give up. "


    Guan Yu echoed: "Zhang Xiu, I swear to heaven that I will never stop killing you."


    Hearing what Liu Bei and Guan Yu said, Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "if you don''t stop, I''ll take it one by one. If a man can die on the battlefield, it''s not a waste of his life. "


    "But I despise you, Liu Bei."


    "If your soldiers die, why don''t you die with me? If your generals are killed, why don''t you die with me. Now, Zhang Fei committed suicide, and you will never die with me. "


    "After all, you, Liu Bei, are a person who is close to others."


    "Don''t you love soldiers? If you do this, you will love your soldiers like a son. It''s a pity. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face was sharp, and there was a voice on the ground: "if you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. I''m on the upper floor of Yin county. Liu Bei, how dare you fight? "


    Liu Bei asked the soldiers to carry Zhang Fei ''


    Without hesitation, he gave the order to attack.


    Twenty thousand elite soldiers under the command of the people''s Liberation Army went out and went straight to the city tower of Yin county.


    At this moment, Liu Bei lost his mind. In his mind, there is only one idea, that is to kill Zhang Xiu and avenge her. Guan Yu also carries the green dragon Yanyue knife to kill, and the soldiers go straight to the county, intending to kill Shangyin county and Zhang Xiu for revenge.


    A team of 20000 people has been killed.


    When Cao Cao saw it, he put a smile on his face.


    Good death to Zhang Fei!


    When Zhang Fei died, Liu Bei was completely angry.


    Liu Bei lost his mind and sent all the soldiers to fight with Zhang Xiu, weakening her strength. At that time, his troops will be able to reap the benefits of yesterday.


    This is an opportunity!


    Cao Cao didn''t order the troops, so he stood by and watched.


    Zhang Xiu saw Liu Bei''s army killed, and her mouth stirred up a touch of disdain. Liu Bei''s troops are not qualified to attack Yin county. Even if Cao Cao''s troops join in, it is not easy to capture Yin county.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has a lot of troops.


    The defensive side, with the help of geographical advantage, is enough to guard.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Archer, release the arrow!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, archers quickly came forward, took bow and arrow, and shot outside the city. More than 3000 archers shoot at the same time. The dense rain like bows and arrows pass through the air, covering the hot sun, making the sun disappear suddenly.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the arrow rain fell.


    Puchi! Puchi!


    Dense bows and arrows shot into the soldier''s body, splashing blood. One by one, Liu Bei''s soldiers fell under the arrows, and there were more howling and screaming voices.


    But more soldiers are still rushing to the gate of Yin county.

 Chapter 743

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the place where the bow and arrow fell outside the city, shooting soldiers one by one. Liu Bei''s soldiers want to attack the South Gate of Yin County, and the soldiers gather outside the city on a large scale, even if there is a certain distance between the soldiers. Continuous and dense bows and arrows can fall, which is enough to cause huge damage to countless Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    The archers under Zhang Xiu''s command don''t need to aim at the enemy. They only need to pull the bow with the greatest strength to kill the enemy. As long as the bow and arrow are shot with great force, there is a great probability of hitting.


    But bows and arrows alone are obviously not enough.


    Zhang Xiu once again ordered: "catapult, ready!"


    A catapult, already in the South Gate of the tower. This has been installed for a long time. As soon as Zhang Xiu arrived in Yin County, he arranged for people to equip the catapult continuously.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, huge stones were installed on the catapult.


    Bang Dang!


    The lever of the catapult swings, and under the swing of power, stones are thrown out, and after rowing in the air, they fall from the air and fall into the crowd of Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    When they are hit by bows and arrows, some do not hit the key points, and some do not kill them. However, the lightest result of being hit by stones is serious injury, and more of them are directly killed.


    The stones kept falling, and the sound came one after another.


    Liu Bei''s offensive was immediately blocked.


    However, after the offensive stopped a little, soon the soldiers in the army picked up their spirits again and continued to march forward. Originally, the distance from the army formation to the city building was not too far, but soldiers carrying the ladder rushed to the outside of the city building.


    A ladder slapped on the wall, and the soldiers climbed up the ladder.


    Dense soldiers, like ants, went up to the castle. But before they got close to the top of the wall, a big gun came out.


    In the sun, the tip of the gun was shining.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    Spear point into the body, one by one just climbed up the top of the ladder, has not turned into the tower, was stabbed to death by a big gun.


    More and more soldiers gathered under the tower.


    More and more people are climbing.


    A large number of soldiers gathered under the tower. Seeing that the time had come, Zhang Xiu once again said, "rolling oil, dumping!"


    The oil was boiling hot on the city tower. It was poured in the pan and splashed on the heads of countless soldiers. In a flash, a sound came out.


    Scream, accompanied by the smoke rising up.


    Pot after pot of hot oil poured down, so that the soldiers climbing, as well as all the soldiers gathered in Chenglou, were completely drenched, causing heavy losses.


    "Challenge wood, let go!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    With the oil pouring, one huge piece of wood after another was lifted and thrown down by the soldiers. The challenge wood rolled down and hit the climbing soldiers. In an instant, the soldiers fell down.


    Even the soldiers under the city were hard to resist and were hit one after another.


    Zhang Xiu''s defensive means emerge in endlessly.


    Although Liu Bei had a large number of troops, for a siege campaign, 20000 were not many. Even a team of 20000 people may not be able to splash a single splash.


    Although some of the soldiers climbed up the city tower, they were quickly killed.


    Zhang Xiu defends the city without any leakage.


    Liu Bei saw all this in his eyes. His face was full of dignified look. He turned his head and looked at Cao Cao and said, "Cao Sikong, all the 20000 troops under my command can hardly threaten Zhang Xiu. Your army, you can''t just sit back. If Cao Sikong doesn''t send troops, I''m ready to withdraw. "


    Cao Cao heard a smile in his heart.


    Liu Bei''s brother died, and his soldiers suffered a lot. It''s definitely impossible to withdraw. It''s just a threat.


    However, Cao Cao also had to attack. It was really difficult to attack Yin county only by Liu Bei''s army.


    As soon as Cao Cao gave an order, he mobilized 10000 soldiers to join the battlefield. It is quite difficult for 20000 people to spread out and attack the city buildings in Yin county.


    But ten thousand more people joined in, especially the ten thousand Cao soldiers, all of them were good at fighting. With Liu Bei''s soldiers and Zhang Xiu''s weapons, when they rushed forward, even in the face of the rain of arrows, the soldiers did not lose much.


    Not long ago, many soldiers had gathered at the bottom of the city.


    Then, climb up the ladder.


    In addition, with other siege vehicles, crashes, etc., they began to attack Yin county.


    Zhang Xiu looks at everything under the city tower, with a sneer at the corner of her mouth. Such a siege, in his expectation, is not a big thing, can not affect the defense of Yin county.


    Looking at more and more soldiers gathered at the city downstairs, especially the city downstairs, where people were standing densely, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Yan not far away and ordered: "Zhang Yan, send the order to the ambush from the north gate to the corner of the east gate, let them do it."


    "Here it isIn an instant, Zhang Yan gave orders.


    With the order, a soldier quickly ran out and ran along the wall above the north gate. After a short time, I came to the corner of the north city to the east city. Not far from the corner of the city downstairs, several soldiers squatted in the corner.


    After the soldiers chanted the order, the soldiers squatting in the corner walked forward quickly and came to a big pit. The two soldiers each pulled the rope and tried to pull it out.


    There was only a click, as if there was a crash.


    Plop! Plop!


    Immediately after that, there was a loud crash.


    The next moment, I saw that the north city wall, four feet away from the wall, suddenly began to collapse. The collapse is about a foot wide.


    Such collapses, like dominoes, continue to spread forward. In the twinkling of an eye, it was the place to fight. There were countless soldiers of Liu Bei and Cao Cao, who were stepping on the ground, ready to climb up.


    All of a sudden, the ground collapsed, causing countless soldiers to fall down and panic. The collapse of the soil and the chaotic situation immediately affected the offensive of Liu Bei and Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu looks at this scene, the corners of her mouth start to smile.


    This is his gift to Cao Cao.


    He was the first to arrive in Yin county. As soon as he arrived, he specially asked the soldiers to dig a tunnel outside the city. This tunnel is about one foot wide and nearly one foot deep.


    After the tunnel is excavated, it is tiled on the top of the tunnel piece by piece with wooden piles to ensure the stability of the tunnel. Under such circumstances, even if the ground on the tunnel is trampled by soldiers, there are two wooden piles under each board, so the trample will not collapse.


    However, many wooden piles in the soldier''s tunnel are tied with ropes, and then connected together on one rope. When the soldiers pull hard, in an instant, the wooden piles will be tilted, the wooden piles will be tilted, and the boards will fall, and the tunnel will collapse quickly.


    So that the attacking soldiers fell one after another, and the situation became chaotic.


    "Shoot, shoot again!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    The soldiers under their command recognized the location of the tunnel collapse and kept firing arrows. For a moment, the situation was chaotic, and countless Cao Jun and Liu Bei soldiers were killed.


    The offensive created by 30000 troops completely disappeared.


    On the contrary, Zhang Xiu''s army had almost no loss, but only the loss of bows and arrows.


    The city wall of Yin county is still strong.


    This scene, fell in Cao Cao''s eyes, he suddenly clenched the reins, face cold su. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu had played so many tricks in such a Yin county that his army suffered heavy losses.


    Liu Bei''s face was livid, and his eyes flashed with fierce anger. He was very unwilling.

 Chapter 744

    It can be said that Cao Cao''s and Liu Bei''s offensives stagnated under Zhang Xiu''s small skill. Such a small means caused heavy losses to the 30000 troops who attacked.


    Liu Bei was not reconciled. He quickly said, "Cao Sikong, you still have 30000 excellent soldiers. Send them all. If we don''t break Yin county now, it will be more difficult to break Yin County next. "


    Cao Cao looks uncertain.


    He had watched Liu Bei''s 20000 troops go up to fight, and his heart was very happy. He expected Liu Bei''s army to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. But now, all hope is gone.


    Guo Jia suggested: "Lord, Zhang Xiu''s means are endless. The current situation is not suitable for fighting again. If we take all the troops, we can''t win yet. This war will be a complete failure. We can''t put all our eggs in one basket. "


    Cao Cao nodded.


    He agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis.


    As Guo Jia said, once all the troops were exhausted, but Yin County could not be conquered, Cao Cao would have to go back to his home and could not attack Zhang Xiu any more. Even in this war, the territory he captured was out of control.


    "Withdraw


    Cao Cao gave the order directly.


    "No, we can''t retreat!"


    Liu Bei''s eyes were covered with blood, his hands clenched into fists, and he cried out: "Cao Sikong, don''t attack now. Next to attack Yin County, it will be extremely difficult. This is the only chance. We can''t withdraw! "


    Cao Cao said flatly: "Liu Xuande, you should know whether to attack or retreat. You can even ask Zhuge Liang, the military adviser around you, who knows the situation very well. "


    "Withdraw!"


    Cao Cao ordered again.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of the Gong is constantly ringing.


    When Cao''s soldiers heard this, they stopped rushing forward and retreated like a tide. So did Liu Bei''s soldiers when they were ordered. When the army retreated, Zhang Xiu did not pursue the city, but ordered the soldiers to stop throwing bows and arrows and stones.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Liu Bei''s position.


    Cao Cao had led the troops to retreat, but Liu Bei did not follow. At this time, Liu Bei turned over and dismounted, came to Zhang Fei''s body silently, squatted down and held Zhang Fei''s cold hand.


    A pair of bright eyes, but gradually full of tears.


    Liu Bei choked in silence.


    His third brother will never come back.


    He suppressed his emotions, but gradually, he could not suppress them any more, so that he cried.


    Guan Yu also withdraws. He looks at Zhang Fei, who has fallen to the ground and his face has been deformed. He sighs in his heart. Deep down in his heart, it seems that there are ants gnawing at him. He wants to kill Zhang Xiu to get revenge.


    It''s just that there''s nothing he can do.


    Zhuge Liang and the rest of the soldiers stood around, all silent.


    After a long time, Liu Bei wiped the tears in his eyes. He stood up, looked up at the direction of Yin County tower, and tried to roar: "Zhang Xiu, I Liu Bei, and you will never die."


    "Withdraw!"


    After the evacuation, Liu Bing took the lead.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the direction of Liu Bei''s evacuation with a sneer in her heart. He heard Liu Bei''s words just now. Liu Bei''s cruel words are very fierce, but in fact, in front of Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei''s strength is not enough.


    Now, the war has just begun.


    Today''s defense is only Zhang Xiu''s first step.


    Next, when Liu Bei and Cao Cao''s army are stationed, it is time to deal with Cao Cao and Liu Bei.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of the retreating Liu Bei and told the soldiers to speed up the cleaning of the battlefield. When the corpses on the upper floor of the city are cleaned up, the city gate is opened again, and the corpses outside the city are cleaned up, and the bows and arrows shot out, as well as the stones that have not been broken, are recovered.


    They are reusable.


    It was evening when everything was finished.


    Zhang Yan came to Zhang Xiu''s room in a hurry and reported: "Lord, the results of today''s World War I have been counted out. The soldiers in our army have lost more than 1300 people. More than 13000 enemies were killed. Today, all the soldiers who died in the war have been registered, and so have those who were injured, so that they can receive all the pensions and awards. All the bodies have been sent to one side for burning. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "the loss of more than 13000 people is mainly caused by Liu Bei. Cao Cao''s troops have suffered little damage. Even so, Cao Cao and Liu Bei still have tens of thousands more troops than us. "


    Zhang Yan said: "after the first World War, Cao Cao and Liu Bei should stop for a while. At least, if we don''t have full assurance, we should not attack again. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "we don''t care what Cao Cao and Liu Bei intend. Next, it''s time for us to get ready to attack. Just wait for the royal guards to report back and find the right wind direction. "


    Zhang Yan also nodded.


    In today''s situation, we can only wait for the right wind direction, and then use the flying ball to achieve success, which is the key to winning by surprise.


    At this time, Wang entered in a hurry.


    Wang Yue looked solemn and reported: "my Lord, we have found out where Cao Cao and Liu Bei camped. The two men''s army encamped twelve miles south of Yin County, backed by a river and in front of an open land. It''s hard to find an ambush around it. Cao Cao and Liu Bei camped together. "When Zhang Xiu heard this, she waved her hand to Wang Yue and Zhang Yan. Then he arranged for Hu Mo to be called and asked about the current situation of the flying ball. Finally, he said, "Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s army are already stationed twelve miles away. Pay close attention to the wind direction. If there is a suitable wind direction tonight, take action immediately without delay. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo hugged his fist and answered.


    He hopes to send troops. Only when the wind direction is right can he succeed and make contributions.


    Zhang Xiu asked Hu Mo to step down and go to the barracks in the city to check the soldiers'' injuries and comfort them at the same time. This is what Zhang Xiu often does. It seems that it''s a very trivial move. In fact, it''s a great encouragement to the soldiers.


    Therefore, even if she is tired, Zhang Xiu also wants to express sympathy around the wounded camp.


    At night, the cook in the army had dinner.


    After dinner, Zhang Xiu came to the tower and observed the wind direction tonight.


    The moon is bright and starry tonight. But there is no star in the sky. In such a moonlight, the soldiers in the army were on their way all night. Even without torches, they could see clearly.


    Sima Yi came to Zhang Xiu''s side and stood quietly without speaking.


    Both were silent.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhong Da, do you think Zhang Ya and Pang Tong are going south to attack Yizhou


    Sima Yi said: "I''m afraid it''s not going well. After all, Zhang Ren is at Jianmen pass. Even though Zhang Ren''s troops are weak, there are natural dangers at Jianmen pass. It''s not easy to enter Jianmen pass. However, I believe that as long as general Zhang is not defeated and the current situation is maintained, that is enough. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    "Lord, the wind is changing. The wind is beginning to change."


    All of a sudden, Wang Yue yelled. He came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "now the wind direction has become the south wind. The direction of Cao Cao and Liu Bei is just to the south of us. It''s right for us to send troops tonight. "


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, it was the sound of hasty footsteps, but Hu Mo came to Zhang Xiu with an excited look on his face. After bowing, he solemnly said: "Taiwei, everything is ready. Now the south wind is blowing, and I''m ready to send troops. "


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Zhang Yan!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhang Yan is not far away. He is in charge of patrolling at night. As soon as he hears Zhang Xiu''s words, he runs quickly.


    Zhang xiudao said: "send the order down, mobilize the Heishan army under your command, and then mobilize Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong to fight all night. Tonight, we break Cao Cao''s camp. In the city of Yin County, one thousand soldiers can be left to guard. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan got the order, and immediately sent the order.

 Chapter 745

    Zhang Xiu''s army gathered quickly in the city. With Zhao Yun, Sha Moke and Zhang Yan, Zhang Xiu goes down to the city building and comes to the front of the army. With a command, the gate of Yin county opens and the army leaves the city.


    Hu and others did not leave the city immediately. The reason for this is that Zhang Xiu concluded that there must be Cao Cao''s sentinel outside the city of Yin county.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu led the army to attack first to confuse Cao Cao''s spies.


    In fact, outside the city, there are indeed spies arranged by Cao Cao to inquire about Zhang Xiu''s actions.


    As soon as Zhang Xiuyi sent out troops, the sentry quickly withdrew. When the sentry returned to Cao''s camp, he quickly reported the news. When Guo Jia got the news, he went straight to see Cao Cao in the big account of the Chinese army.


    After a ceremony, he said: "Sikong, Zhang Xiu has sent troops. There were not only infantry, but also countless cavalry. It is estimated that Zhang Xiu is preparing to attack at night. "


    Cao Cao stroked his beard under his jaw, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said: "Zhang Xiu is used to making strange soldiers. Compared with the strength of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is obviously in a weak position. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu should not send troops in any case. Now, however, Zhang Xiu is out of the blue. Who would have expected that he would send troops? "


    Guo Jia said with a smile, "didn''t you expect it?"


    Cao Cao laughed and immediately ordered Liu Bei to attend the meeting.


    Soon after, Liu Bei entered the camp. Now his eyes were red and his face was sad. His brother Zhang Fei fell from a building and died. He would rather die than delay his foundation, which made Liu Bei miserable.


    Liu Bei endured grief and said, "Sikong asked me to come. I don''t know what''s urgent?"


    Cao Cao said: "I just got the news from the sentinel. Zhang Xiu left Yin county with the army all night and had already killed us. Xuande, your chance of revenge has come. "


    "If Zhang Xiu is trapped in Yin county from beginning to end, we can''t help him."


    "Now, Zhang Xiu has left Yin county."


    "For us, this is the best chance to wipe out Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu came from Yizhou. His troops are no more than 20000. Now we have more than 40000, nearly 50000 elite. "


    Cao Cao hurled a voice: "we unite, enough to wipe out the army of Zhang Xiu."


    When Liu Bei heard this, he was breathing quickly.


    The hatred between him and Zhang Xiu is very deep. He wants to scratch Zhang Xiu''s skin and get cramped. He wants to eat Zhang Xiu''s meat and drink Zhang Xiu''s blood. Now that he has a chance to revenge, Liu Bei is very excited.


    Liu Bei said, "how is Cao Sikong going to fight?"


    Cao Cao confidently said: "if you want to defeat Zhang Xiu, you should go all out. Whether it''s where you''re stationed or my camp, it''s together. In that case, I suggest that the army be ready and ambush in the camp. Once Zhang Xiu''s army launches an attack, we will fight out and defeat Zhang Xiu''s army from the front


    Liu Bei said, "according to Cao Sikong."


    When he answered, he turned and stepped back. When Liu Bei returned to his camp, he looked at Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang waiting for him and said, "the reason why Cao Cao asked me to go is that his sentinel found that Zhang Xiu sent troops to kill him in the camp."


    Zhuge Liang gently shakes the feather fan and inquires, "is there really a big army of Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Liu Bei nodded.


    Zhuge Liang said: "Zhang Xiu is very cunning. He sent out troops all night, though he said he didn''t want to. But he should know that we are far stronger than him. "


    Liu Bei said: "sergeant, you are not. I don''t know Zhang Xiu''s strength. He is too strong. In addition, the generals under his command are also extremely powerful, so he dares to launch a night attack. "


    "Even if Zhang Xiu now has only 20000 troops, she still dares to face us."


    "This is Zhang Xiu''s confidence."


    "And his conceit."


    Liu Bei gnawed his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu thinks she is invincible in the world, but she doesn''t know that Cao Cao took Lv Bu with her. Cao Cao will let Lv Bu fight at night. "


    Liu Bei was also extremely hostile to Lu Bu.


    When Liu Bei was in Xuzhou, he accepted Lu Bu with good intentions. But in the end, Lu Bu captured his Xuzhou, making Liu Bei homeless and homeless again.


    But Lu Bu is now a member of Cao Cao. Liu Bei did not affect Cao Cao, so he had no choice but to let it go. However, in this war, Liu Bei felt that Cao Cao''s surrender to Lu Bu was good.


    Only Lu Bu can compete with Zhang Xiu.


    The rest of them couldn''t stop Zhang Xiu.


    Zhuge Liang thought about it and said in a deep voice: "my Lord is right, but I think that Zhang Xiu probably has a back hand. Is it true that Zhang Xiu has more troops? "


    "No way!"


    Liu Bei shook his head and said, "in today''s situation, where are Zhang Xiu''s soldiers? He can''t have more soldiers. Don''t be suspicious, commander. We will win this battle. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "I hope it''s as the LORD said!"


    Liu Bei and Guan Yu can''t wait to leave the camp, to mobilize the army, and then ambush in the camp.Liu Bei''s ambush lies on the left side of the camp. Cao Cao''s army is lying in ambush on the right side of the barracks. As long as Zhang Xiu''s troops enter the camp, they will be attacked from left to right.


    At that time, Zhang Xiu''s army camp will be in chaos and will collapse immediately.


    Either Cao Cao or Liu Bei are waiting.


    Time goes by.


    Half an hour goes by.


    It''s also normal for a slow army to walk more than ten miles in half an hour. But an hour later, before Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, Cao Cao and Liu Bei began to murmur that something was wrong.


    Cao Cao personally led the ambush, looked at Guo Jia beside him, and asked, "fengxiao, now Zhang Xiu''s army should be outside the camp, why there has been no movement."


    Guo Jia said: "maybe Zhang Xiu did it on purpose."


    Cao Cao said, "what is it on purpose?"


    Guo Jia replied: "Zhang Xiu is ready to make a surprise attack, but she also anticipates that we may have ambushes in the camp, so she deliberately waits. When we let down our guard, we can attack again. So humble guess, Zhang Xiu''s army, has arrived outside the camp, is already ambush in the distance in the dark


    "It''s possible!"


    Cao Cao nodded, with a look of approval.


    For this reason, Cao Cao specially arranged for his soldiers to inform Liu Bei that Liu Bei should be calm and not anxious.


    After Cao Cao comforted Liu Bei, he continued to wait, and two quarters of an hour slipped away quietly. But Zhang Xiu outside the camp never launched an attack, which made Cao Cao''s patience a little insufficient.


    Cao Cao wanted to go out at once.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu did lie in ambush outside the camp. He was not unwilling to launch an attack, because he was still waiting for Hu Mo and others.


    Without Hu Mo, he can''t attack.


    The south wind blows slowly and the breeze blows.


    Now in August night, although the sun is shining in the daytime, it is still hot. In fact, in the daytime, the cool place has lost the heat of summer, and it is even cooler at night.


    When Zhang Xiu is waiting quietly, she also arranges soldiers to watch the situation in the sky.


    Waiting for Hu Mo''s arrival.


    "Rustle!"


    A burst of footwork sound sounded, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu in a hurry, his face was excited, solemnly said: "Lord, here, the flying ball led by Hu Mo is coming."


    Zhang Xiu raised her head and looked into the air.


    The moon and stars in the sky, a flying ball slowly forward, away from Cao Cao camp over, is closer and closer.


    At the moment, Hu Mo and others are all in the basket. The estimation of all distances was made by Hu Mo alone. Seeing that the distance was almost the same, he ordered, "come on, start throwing the tins. Drop them."


    With Hu Mo''s order, one by one of the forty-three flying balls, Mohist children, who had already been in place, grabbed a bundle of clay pots, lit the seal of the pots and threw them forward.


    Dozens of the first batch of fallen pottery pots, like meteors, went straight to Cao Cao''s camp.


    The flying ball is still moving slowly forward.


    Hu Mo and others kept throwing burning pots. There are more and more tins falling down. This scene is reflected in the sky, as if there are countless sky fires falling down to Cao Cao''s camp.


    Cao Cao has been hiding in the camp, no vision in the air. All of a sudden, Cao Cao''s soldiers cried out in panic: "look, there''s a fire coming down in the sky."


    Cao Cao looked up.


    In a flash, Cao Cao''s body was struck by lightning, and the whole person was confused.

 Chapter 746

    How is that possible?


    There were flying balls in the sky, and then there were big fires.


    "Chaka!"


    Crisp sound sounded in the camp, with the broken pottery pot, the fire oil immediately spilled out. The seal burning flame instantly ignited the fire oil flowing out of the pottery pot, and the fire snake quickly ran away.


    "Bang Dang! Kuangdang


    The incessant crashing sound resounded through the camp.


    In a short time, the camp has been on fire everywhere.


    Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia and asked eagerly, "what shall we do with filial piety?"


    Rao is a well-informed Cao Cao, and the current scene also makes him a little at a loss. Because of the current situation, the fire is completely unstoppable. The fire is burning, and it will not be extinguished unless it rains heavily.


    After all, there are many tents in the camp, as well as a lot of equipment and food.


    Guo Jia was also very nervous.


    "Lord, retreat!"


    At this moment, Guo Jia made a decision and quickly said: "the current situation is created by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu deliberately left Yin county with her army, which made us think that it was a surprise attack on the camp. "


    "Obviously, the purpose of Zhang Xiu is not to surprise the camp, but to wait outside the camp for us to gather and ambush him. We lie in ambush in the camp, the soldiers are in a regiment, the fire is burning, even if we can''t rescue, the camp will be set on fire. "


    "Of course, if we leave the camp, we will be attacked by Zhang Xiu."


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu''s plan is closely linked, so vicious, so terrible!"


    Cao Cao sighed.


    He fought with Zhang Xiu several times, but they all ended in failure. Originally, he took the lead in this fight, but now it seems that he has lost again.


    "Withdraw!"


    Cao Cao gave the order.


    With Cao Cao''s order, Lv Bu was the vanguard, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others were with him. The generals rushed to the camp gate with their soldiers in the fire.


    Rao is so. Under the fire in the army, some soldiers have been ignited by the fire.


    Food and grass in the army were burned.


    "Rush, rush out with me!"


    Cao Cao roared.


    Today''s situation, can not control the rest of the equipment in the camp, can only quickly break through. But even so, the camp was full of fire, which made the evacuation of the army chaotic.


    When Cao Cao retreated to the outside of the camp, Liu Bei on the other side couldn''t hold still, so he had to take the soldiers to the gate of the camp quickly. Liu Bei''s face was also full of bitterness.


    Liu Bei wants revenge.


    But this night''s fight once again proved the cruelty of reality.


    Liu Bei ran out in panic again.


    When the two armies meet, the soldiers in the army are flustered. From time to time, pottery pots fall from the sky, fall into the crowd, and the fire oil is splashed down. If the fire oil burns up, the soldiers are also quickly ignited.


    The military camp is in chaos.


    Zhang Xiu hides in the dark and sees the chaos in Cao Cao''s camp. Her face is full of desperation. As soon as he waved, his archers came forward.


    All the archers were lined up, nearly a hundred feet apart.


    Besides archers, there are also archers.


    When Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s troops came out of the camp, Zhang Xiu ordered, "shoot the arrow!"


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bows and arrows flew out of the air and went straight to Cao Cao''s camp. In the twinkling of an eye, he arrived at the gate of the camp and shot into the bodies of the soldiers who rushed out one by one.


    Puchi! Puchi!


    With the bow and arrow into the meat, screams sounded, many soldiers were shot immediately.


    Many soldiers died under the bow and arrow. In particular, when these soldiers rush out of the field on their own, they are not scattered at all. When bows and arrows fly in, the soldiers can hardly avoid them. As a result, the first wave of soldiers who rush in the front are directly shot into meat sieves.


    "Kill, kill out!"


    Cao Cao roared with a quick look.


    Today, the fires that are burning all over the camp have been flowing together. If we do not withdraw, I am afraid that more and more soldiers will die in the fire. Cao Cao, together with Xu Chu, Lu Bu and others, braved the rain of arrows to get out of the camp, turned straight and headed east.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Cao Cao shouts and orders.


    Xu Chu, Lu Bu, and Dian Wei are the first three people. The team of these three people is extremely destructive and almost irresistible. The rapid breakthrough of the army, even if the arrow rain continues, can not stop this force.


    Zhang Xiu saw the evacuation of Cao Cao, sent soldiers to resist, ready to intercept Cao Cao. But when Zhang Xiu saw the people around Cao Cao, her eyes shrank.


    He met Xu Chu and Dian Wei and knew them.


    With Zhang Xiu''s strength, it is not difficult to defeat Dian Wei or Xu Chu alone if we fight alone. But if Zhang Xiu faces these two people at the same time, it is impossible to win.Especially Zhang Xiu saw Lv Bu.


    As a member of the Xiliang army, Zhang Xiu knew Lu Bu and knew more about the terror of Lu Bu''s strength.


    Lu Bu''s martial arts skills have been improved. He can draw halberd with a square sky. He combines hardness with softness. He can lift heavy weights as light as heavy, and can change at will. In front of Lu Bu, neither Dian Wei nor Xu Chu could see it.


    Zhang Xiu''s strength is already very strong.


    Let Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu fight, Zhang Xiu is not fully sure to win, after all, never and Lv Bu fight, do not know the depth of Lv Bu.


    In the distance, Zhang Xiu saw Lu Bu''s hand, and Fang Tian''s painting halberd was waving in the air. Where she passed, she was invincible. In particular, Fang Tianhua''s Halberd was swung up and chopped down, and the soldiers who came forward to block were killed immediately.


    In addition, Xu Chu, Dian Wei and others jointly charged to break through the encirclement.


    Cao''s retreat was unstoppable.


    See Cao Cao''s side, a huge lineup, Zhang Xiu put out the idea of sending soldiers to stop again. Now Cao Cao''s side lineup, to resist, is tantamount to death.


    He didn''t care about Cao Cao, but turned to Liu Bei who broke through the encirclement.


    Seeing Liu Bei break through, Zhang Xiu orders the attack directly. The bow and arrow stopped, and the army went up. Liu Bei''s soldiers were already in a mess.


    In particular, there is only Guan Yu around Liu Bei. After Liu Bei''s lack of Zhang Fei, Guan Yu retreated with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang alone, and some of them were not strong enough.


    In particular, the soldiers who fell behind were killed one after another.


    One by one, Liu Bei''s soldiers were in chaos and could not resist. They had to flee in a hurry, and some even surrendered directly. At this time, the white horse came from killing and kept killing.


    Liu Bei''s army was defeated faster.


    However, Liu Bei, who is always a rabbit, runs fast. After evacuating with Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang, even if Zhang Xiu pursues him, he fails to take Liu Bei and loses his trace.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t find Liu Bei, so she stopped pursuing and ordered the army to cover up the soldiers around the camp.


    When Cao Cao, who had withdrawn, approached Yin, he ordered the people to stop.


    Cao Cao roughly counted the number of troops under his command, and now the soldiers around him are less than 20000, with countless losses. Liu Bei''s army, which followed him, was even weaker. Liu Bei''s troops are less than 6000.


    Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang and others gathered together.


    The look on Cao Cao''s face was extremely solemn and said: "the attack of Zhang Xiu tonight is extremely abrupt. In particular, the flying ball from the sky was able to throw cupping pots and ignited our camp. Have you ever seen this? "


    Zhuge Liang said: "no, but in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, there were flying kites made by Mohist school, which could fly in the air. Now I don''t know what happened to the flying ball. "


    Guo Jia said: "in a word, this is something similar to flying kite. We got a surprise attack and suffered heavy losses. In the next war, we must be careful not to be counted any more. "


    Cao Cao nodded in agreement.


    For Zhang Xiu how to let Qiu Fei rise, Cao Cao is very curious.


    It''s just that he doesn''t understand.


    As soon as Cao Cao''s words changed, he said, "what shall we do next?"


    Guo Jia said: "I suggest withdrawing Xinye county and defending Xinye County for the time being. Before we attacked Yin County, Zhang Xiu was the garrison. But next, we retreated to Xinye, where we served as the garrison. With the help of the strong city wall, we consumed Zhang Xiu''s troops, and then we watched how Zhang Xiu recaptured Xinye. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "I agree."


    Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and said, "Xuande, do you have any opinions?"


    "No, I agree!"


    Liu Bei shook his head and answered directly, nodding in favor of the proposal to retreat to Xinye.

 Chapter 747

    The killing at the camp did not end until the next morning. All the bodies of Cao Liu soldiers killed were thrown into the burning camp and burned.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers suffered little damage, less than a thousand casualties.


    The army temporarily withdrew to Yin County, waiting for Hu Mo and others to return. At noon, Hu Mo returned with the rest. They are still the same as before, only bringing the folded flying ball back, not the hanging basket. After all, it''s not convenient to carry.


    By this time, the sentinel had sent back the news that Liu Bei and Cao Cao had retreated to Xinye. Zhang Xiu learned the news, clear Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s intention, is ready to garrison Xinye to fight.


    Zhang Xiu knows, but she doesn''t care.


    If Liu Bei and Cao Cao''s army United before, Zhang Xiu was afraid. So now, Liu Bei and Cao Cao lost for a while and their strength weakened, which is not worth Zhang Xiu''s fear again.


    Wang Yue is in a hurry, came to Yin County tower. When he entered the room, he saw Zhang Xiu and said, "Lord, I have just received the news from the royal guards. Although Cao Cao said that he would withdraw to Xinye. But Deng County, near Xiangyang, has ten thousand garrisons of Cao Cao. "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart, and then said, "pass the orders. After lunch, the army set out to go south and attack Deng county. Next, we will encircle and suppress ten thousand Cao troops in Deng county. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue got the order and arranged it immediately.


    After noon, the soldiers had lunch, had a rest, and set out south. The army rushed all the way. When it was close to Deng County, Zhang Xiu divided her forces and arranged Zhao Yun''s white horse to follow him. She left 3000 infantry to Zhao Yun to ambush him on the way.


    Sima Yi followed Zhang Xiu and said with a smile, "instead of going to Xinye, my Lord is going to Deng county. Is he going to pit Cao Cao while preparing to attack Cao''s soldiers in Deng county?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s not easy to pit Cao Cao. I left Zhao Yun to ambush on the way because if Cao Cao came, he could ambush Cao Cao''s army and attack Cao Cao with us. But if Cao Cao doesn''t come, it will not affect us. We can attack Deng county with all our strength and wipe out Cao''s army in Deng county. In a word, no matter how it is, it has no effect on us


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu led the army and continued to drive at full speed.


    Just as Zhang Xiu walked out a distance, the royal guards came from Deng county. When they saw Zhang Xiu, they reported: "Taiwei, General Huang has an urgent report."


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and checked it quickly.


    When he saw the letter from Huang Zhong, he began to smile.


    Sima Yi said, "Lord, what did General Huang say?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Huang Zhong said that when he got us into Nanyang County, and Cao Cao went to Yin County, he had already raised his troops to the north. Now, Huang Zhong is attacking Deng county. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu stopped for a moment and then said, "it''s estimated that Huang Zhong will take Deng County in a short time. After all, under Huang Zhong''s command, there are more than 30000 Feixiong troops with strong combat effectiveness. "


    Sima Yi said happily, "Lord, there is Huang Zhong''s army in Deng county. I suggest that we don''t have to go to Deng county again. Now we continue to move forward and gradually hide our whereabouts. Then we turn around quietly and go back to meet Zhao Yun. "


    After a pause, Sima Yi continued: "then set up checkpoints along the way in Deng county to stop Cao Cao''s sentinel from passing, so that Cao Cao could not understand the news of Deng county. Once Cao Cao catches up, he will not only be ambushed by us, but also be attacked by General Huang Zhong. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "that''s the truth. However, it depends on whether Cao Cao is caught in the trap. In my opinion, Cao Cao may not send troops. But anyway, it''s always good to try. "


    Sima Yi once again said, "no matter what, I suggest you have a try."


    There was a look of anticipation on his face.


    Looking forward to Cao Cao going south.


    Zhang Xiu also nodded her head and agreed to follow Sima Yi''s plan. When Zhang Xiu didn''t go to Xinye, the news that she went to Deng county came back to Xinye. At this time, Cao Cao''s army had entered Xinye, not far from Xinye county.


    Cao Cao''s face changed slightly when he learned of Zhang Xiu''s action.


    He thinks that Zhang Xiu is likely to chase him to Xinye, and he is also ready to fight with Zhang Xiu for a long time in Xinye. But Cao Cao did not expect that Zhang Xiu went straight to Deng county.


    The situation is more complicated.


    Cao Cao immediately called Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Xun you and others to talk about Zhang Xiu''s going south to Deng county. Finally, he said, "Zhang Xiu is going to Deng county. How can we deal with it? Ten thousand elite soldiers from Deng county. Or, continue to go to Xinye county and stay in Xinye county. "


    Zhuge Liang said without thinking: "Cao Sikong, I think I should go to Deng county. Although Zhang Xiu went to Deng County, she did not want to ambush on the way, but Deng county is ten thousand Cao soldiers after all. "


    "If you don''t care, ten thousand soldiers in Deng county will surely be defeated by Zhang Xiu."


    "Especially Deng county is adjacent to Xiangyang. After Zhang Xiu arrives in Deng County, Huang Zhong of Xiangyang will get news soon. With Zhang Xiu in Deng County, Huang Zhong will not stick to Xiangyang and will definitely go north to Deng county. "


    "Even, in my opinion, Huang Zhong may have gone north to Deng county."Zhuge Liang said, "after all, it has been a long time since Zhang Xiu entered Nanyang County. Under such circumstances, the garrison of Deng county was attacked jointly by Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu and was bound to lose. If we don''t rescue, we will lose the ten thousand elite soldiers. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes turned, thinking, but did not express his position.


    At present, the situation is rather difficult.


    Unexpectedly, Cao Cao''s 10000 elite soldiers were originally arranged in Deng county. Their original intention was to guard the main road south and prevent Huang Zhong from going north, so that Cao Cao could defeat Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, in the twinkling of an eye, Deng county''s arrangement turned out to be a bad move.


    It put Cao Cao in a dilemma.


    Xun you stroked his beard under his jaw and said after thinking, "Lord, I don''t agree to go to Deng county."


    Cao Cao: "why?"


    Xun you replied: "once you go to Deng County, you will give the initiative of this war to Zhang Xiu again. Just now Zhuge Kongming said that Zhang Xiu might be ambushed. That''s right. "


    "Even Huang Zhong''s troops are powerful, and Deng county is the territory of Jingzhou. Once the local gentry cooperate, Cao Hong''s 10000 troops will not be able to defend Deng county."


    "Huang Zhong conquered Deng county and joined forces with Zhang Xiu to build a strong army."


    "By then, they will have far more troops than us. It''s not good for us to fight head-on. Maybe this chase will trap us all. "


    "The chief General of Deng county is general Cao Hong. Cao Hong is good at guarding and can make decisions on the spot. Once he finds out that the situation is not good, he will definitely withdraw. "


    Xun you said: "the current situation, can only be left to its own devices, not to manage Deng county."


    Cao Cao was helpless.


    The rescue of Deng county is likely to be ambushed or even attacked by Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong.


    It is dangerous for Cao Hong not to save Deng county.


    It is very difficult for Cao Cao to save or not, which makes him in a dilemma.


    Guo Jiachen said: "Lord, I don''t agree with rescue. If we are strong, we can attack. But now, the troops are too weakened to fight head-on. Let''s retreat to Xinye first, and strive to keep Xinye and control the territory that has been captured. "


    People attacked by Cao Cao spoke one after another.


    They all support going north to Xinye.


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he gently shook his feather fan in his hand, but in the depth of his eyes, he also passed a trace of sadness.


    What a pity!


    Cao Cao will not go south to Deng county. If Cao Cao goes south, he can weaken Zhang Xiu with the help of Cao Cao''s power. Similarly, he can weaken Cao Cao with the help of Zhang Xiu''s power.


    After thinking about it, Cao Cao finally ordered to go north to Xinye County, but did not rush to help Cao Hong in Deng county.

 Chapter 748

    Deng County, on the tower.


    Cao Hong, the chief General of the Cao army stationed here, is arranging for soldiers to clean up the corpses on the upper floor of the city. In the morning of the day, Huang Zhong, a general under Zhang Xiu, had already arrived in Deng County, and then launched a fierce attack.


    Under Huang Zhong''s command, there are more than 30000 elite soldiers and various siege equipment. The attack is fierce. Cao Hong had only 10000 troops, and he was short of equipment, so it was very difficult to resist.


    Huang Zhong''s troops ascended the tower several times.


    Finally, with Cao Hong''s insistence, Cao''s soldiers beat down the soldiers who went up to the city building and stabilized Deng''s defense. When it was dark, the corpses on the city tower were thoroughly cleaned up, and the losses of the first World War in the daytime had been counted.


    The young general who led the army came to Cao Hong.


    The young general, named Gongli, was Cao Hong''s close follower and served as a general in the army.


    Gong Li said: "general, we have lost more than 2000 soldiers in today''s battle. But Huang Zhong''s troops have been damaged by at least 4000 people. If they want to attack Deng County, the loss will be greater. "


    Cao Hongshen said in a voice: "after all, we are the one who defends the city. It''s natural that the other side will suffer more losses." After a pause, Cao Hong said, "I just don''t know how far the battle between the Lord and Zhang Xiu has gone."


    Gong Li solemnly said: "Sikong led the army to Yin County, and it must defeat Zhang Xiu."


    "I hope so!"


    Cao Hong nodded solemnly.


    As soon as the words changed, Cao Hong said, "is there any change in the magistrate of Deng county?"


    "No!"


    Gong Li shook his head and said, "the people who monitor the county magistrate report the news. Deng Kui has been in the county government from beginning to end. He doesn''t go out of the gate. He doesn''t move beyond the gate."


    It''s Deng Kui county magistrate.


    He is a local.


    The ability to govern the local area made the people of Deng County abundant.


    Cao Hongshen said in a voice: "Deng Kui is honest and obedient, so he doesn''t care about him. If Deng Kui has any overstepping action, he even wants to cooperate with Huang Zhong inside and outside, so he doesn''t have to keep his hand and kill him. "


    "Here it is


    When the palace ceremony is ordered, it should be issued.


    After a pause, Gong Li said, "general, Huang Zhong''s army has come all the way. What''s more, Huang Zhong''s army is quite tired after a day''s fighting. In this case, it is likely to be the teacher of exhaustion. If we attack night after night, it might work


    Cao Hong shook his head and said, "if you are going to attack at night, I''m afraid you will fall into Huang Zhong''s calculation immediately. It''s extremely difficult for a veteran like Huang Zhong to try to calculate him. "


    "Can you think of the night attack, he won''t? Is there any arrangement? "


    "In particular, you should be clear about one thing. Our first task is to delay Huang Zhong, kill Zhang Xiu for the Lord and delay time. Once we venture out and lose, Huang Zhong may join Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Hong said: "when the time comes, it will be even more difficult to wipe out Zhang Xiu."


    Gong Li didn''t worry about Cao Hong either. After all, he had a good relationship with Cao Hong, so he said, "but if the general leads the troops to destroy Huang Zhong, we can go south and go straight to Xiangyang. In doing so, Zhang Xiu''s feet are in a mess. "


    "You are still too young."


    Cao Hong said with a light smile: "you are eager to make contributions. You want to destroy Huang Zhong for your Lord and take Xiangyang. But have you ever thought that as long as we hold down Huang Zhong, after the Lord killed Zhang Xiu, we will go south to Deng county to join us, and it will be as easy to defeat Huang Zhong as it is to defeat Jingzhou. "


    After a pause, Cao Hong said: "but if we go to war rashly, we are ambushed, and we fail. Huang Zhong and Zhang Xiu will join together, and it will be very difficult to destroy Zhang Xiu. When the time comes, to deal with Zhang Xiu, it''s nothing but nothing. "


    After hearing this, Gong Li thought about it in his heart and didn''t refute Cao Hong.


    From the bottom of his heart, he thinks that Cao Hong is a great leader.


    Too defensive.


    Gong Li''s heart even wanted to say that if Huang Zhong was killed, it would greatly shorten the time to attack Jingzhou. Even after Cao Cao killed Zhang Xiu, he would not have to attack Jingzhou any more, but could go north to attack Chang''an.


    All this, palace ceremony is deep in the heart.


    Cao Hong took a look at Gong Li and said nothing more. He continued to patrol and inspect the defense in the city.


    Outside the city, not far away.


    Huang Zhong''s camp is a big account of the Chinese army.


    Huang Zhong was reading a book when he lost more than 4000 soldiers during the day''s siege. Although Huang Zhong is distressed, this is the battlefield and there is no way. As long as it''s war, it''s death.


    What Huang Zhong can do is to capture Deng County in the shortest time and at the least cost.


    Time goes by little.


    As the morning approached, Huang Zhong was still reading and didn''t even mean to sleep.


    He led troops to attack Deng county. Before he sent troops from Xiangyang, he got the news that Cao Cao had arranged for people to be stationed in Deng county. Huang Zhong knew that Cao Cao was going north to deal with Zhang Xiu, and he had already made a plan to break the city.


    Now, everything goes according to Huang Zhong''s plan.


    This is Huang Zhong''s confidence.


    It''s easy to break Deng county."Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, and a soldier quickly entered, reporting: "general, the sentinel sent back the news that there was a fire in Deng county."


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong''s face was filled with a bright smile.


    He rubbed to his feet and ordered, "go on, the army will go out with me."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to give orders. Send them at once.


    In fact, although Huang Zhong''s soldiers rest at night, they all sleep in peace and do not take off their armor. As long as the order is given, the soldiers in the army can meet immediately.


    This is Huang Zhong''s confidence.


    Huang Zhong quickly mobilized the army, quickly left the barracks and went straight to Deng county.


    In fact, Huang Zhong''s plan is not complicated. He sent someone to contact the magistrate of Deng county. Although Deng Kui, the county magistrate of Deng County, is a local, he was appointed as an official only after Chang''an took part in the examination.


    He is loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    Although such a person is obedient to Cao Cao, it is helpless.


    As soon as the people of the royal guards contacted Deng Kui, Deng Kui said that he was willing to cooperate with Huang Zhong. With this premise, Huang Zhong''s original intention was to let Deng Kui open the city gate in response to external cooperation. However, considering that Deng Kui was monitored by Cao Jun, once Deng Kui acted rashly, he might be killed, so Huang Zhong did not let Deng Kui open the city gate.


    Huang Zhong''s plan is to know the location of the granary in the city through Deng Kui.


    Then, arrange the operation of the royal guards.


    During the day, Huang Zhong attacked the city to attract Cao Hong''s troops and attention. At this time, the royal guards moved quickly to control the granary. In Huang Zhong''s plan, if the granary in the city is on fire when he is attacking the city, that is the best.


    At that time, Cao Hong''s morale would be weakened and Cao Hong''s morale would be in chaos. Unfortunately, the royal guards didn''t act in time during the day, so it was dark in the evening. Huang Zhong withdrew and returned, waiting for the news of the royal guards.


    Now, it''s coming.


    It''s not too late.


    When the granary in caohong city was burned, caohong lost his way.


    Huang Zhong led the army to encircle Deng county. Under such a premise, Cao Hong''s food supply was unstable, and it was almost impossible to supplement food. Today''s Cao Hong, even if he occupies Deng County, is in trouble.


    This is Huang Zhong''s confidence.


    If Cao Hong''s granary is broken, Cao Hong will be the fish on the chopping board, and Huang Zhong will be allowed to butcher it.

 Chapter 749

    On the city floor of Deng County, Cao Hong is resting in his room. However, when Cao Hong went to bed at night, he also slept with his clothes. From beginning to end, he did not take off his armor.


    The advantage of this is that once Huang Zhong''s troops attack, Cao Hong can immediately respond and quickly come to the city floor to command.


    During the day of the first World War, Cao Hong had been in command all day. He was very tired. In the evening, when I was on business again, I had a very late rest. Soon after I went to bed, I suddenly heard the cry of fire.


    Cao Hong had a shallow sleep. As soon as he heard the fire, he opened his eyes. A carp straightened up and stood up. He took his sword from the weapon rack and rushed out of the room with it.


    "General, no, No. Our granary is on fire. "


    Gong Li came in a hurry with a panic on his face. When it comes to food, Gong Li was very anxious.


    "No, it''s a trick."


    Cao Hong looked in the direction of the granary and said in a panic: "we have been on guard against Deng Kui. We are worried that Deng Kui will cooperate with Huang Zhong. Unexpectedly, Huang Zhong''s goal is not Deng Kui, but our food. Come on, come on, get someone to put out the fire. "


    "Here it is


    After Gong Li got the order, he took people to put out the fire.


    Cao Hong was not in a hurry to put out the fire, because leaving the south gate at this time and taking away the troops would lead to the lack of defense in the south gate.


    If Huang Zhong attacks the city, he can''t keep it.


    Cao Hong was still on the upper floor of the town, and let Gong Li take the soldiers to put out the fire. As time goes by, Cao Hong''s eyes always fall on the position of the granary.


    Fire, burning.


    The fire light is more and more vigorous. Under the red fire light, the sky in the whole city is as bright as day, dispersing the darkness in the city.


    Cao Hong''s heart is sinking.


    He looked worried.


    What to do?


    At this moment, Cao Hong began to think about the situation he had to face. Granary was the key to Cao Hong. There is enough food in Deng County, so Cao Hong can guard Deng county. If there is no food, the soldiers will not be able to fight without food?


    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, the sound of war drums sounded outside the city.


    The sound of the drum is rapid and heartfelt.


    The rapid sound of war drums made Cao Hong''s heart more and more flustered.


    Here comes Huang Zhong!


    Cao Hong looked out of the tower and saw a torch burning a hundred paces away to disperse the darkness. One by one the heads of the people gathered, one by one soldiers with swords, appeared in Cao Hong''s line of sight.


    Huang Zhong''s army has appeared outside the city.


    Huang Zhong looked solemn and said in a loud voice: "Cao Hong, the granary in the city is on fire. Can you still guard Deng county without food? If you surrender now, you will be spared your life. "


    "Rampant!"


    Cao Hong yelled.


    Even if the situation is unfavorable, he is not afraid of Huang Zhong, at least in a short time, Huang Zhong can not break the defense of Deng county.


    This is Cao Hong''s confidence.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rush of footsteps came from the gallop of the tower.


    But Gong Li came back.


    Gong Li''s face was full of panic. He quickly reported: "it''s over, general. All our food is burning in the sea of fire. Our people can''t rush in or put out the fire. All the food and equipment were burned. "


    Cao Hong''s face was completely gloomy.


    At this point, he must consider a more realistic problem, that is, survival.


    Now it''s no longer a garrison.


    It''s survival.


    Secondly, it is more and more difficult to keep Deng County under the situation that the grain and equipment are burned and Huang Zhong is eyeing it. On the contrary, they must find a way to survive and break through.


    Gong Li said again, "general, what shall we do?"


    "What to do, what to do? Don''t you have a brain of your own? " Cao Hong''s heart was also anxious. When he heard Gong Li''s words, he was even more angry and said, "in today''s situation, you should use your brain and think more about how we should retreat."


    Gong Li was worried and said, "just break through."


    Cao Hong said, "Huang Zhong''s army is just outside the south gate. In today''s situation, you say how to break through. If you go out, you will be surrounded. What''s more, it''s dark. You can''t be sure where there is an ambush outside the gate. As soon as they are killed, they may be ambushed. "


    Gong Li didn''t speak at once.


    The current situation is very difficult.


    Cao Hong thought it over carefully and said, "go on, all the soldiers will hold on for a while. We''ll break through as soon as it gets light. Now even if Huang Zhong attacks, keep it for me. "


    "Here it is


    The palace ceremony was so good that I felt a little relieved.


    As long as we can hold on, there will be a good chance for the evacuation tomorrow.Cao Hong didn''t take action on the upper floor of the city. Huang Zhong was surprised, but he didn''t take care of it. He just stationed troops outside the city. In today''s situation, we just need to encircle the four square gates, and the next step is to close the net.


    Huang Zhong ordered the soldiers to take a rest in place. One by one, the soldiers sat down to rest. The outermost part was guarded by soldiers in turn.


    Time goes by.


    The sky is getting colder, when the East appears a touch of fish belly white, golden light, rising from the distance.


    By this time, Huang Zhong''s soldiers had already begun to eat. The fragrance of rice spreads far away. Cao Hong''s soldiers on the tower were hungry.


    A big fire last night reduced the grain in the city to ashes. There was no grain at all.


    Cao hongphen told the soldiers to retreat quietly and go to the north gate.


    He''s going to break through the north gate.


    As long as you leave the county, Cao Hong can quickly go to Yin county to join Cao Cao.


    When Cao Hong''s army broke out from the north gate, Huang Zhong immediately got the news. He did not delay, with the army quickly to the north gate. However, Huang Zhong went to the north gate, but he did not remove the defense outside the other gates. There were still soldiers guarding him.


    This is to avoid Cao Hongsheng''s attack from the east to the West.


    When Huang Zhong went all the way north, Cao Hong''s troops met Huang Zhong''s cavalry soon after they left the city. Huang Zhong was outside the north gate, with 2000 cavalry.


    In addition, two thousand cavalry troops were deployed at the east gate and the west gate respectively.


    There are also some cavalry in Huang Zhong''s hands.


    Huang Zhong''s 30000 flying bear troops are not only elite, but also have enough infantry and nearly 10000 cavalry. In fact, this is the normal configuration of the flying bear army. Even the fierce tiger army in Ganning has cavalry.


    Two thousand cavalry of flying bear army cut back and forth to cover Cao Hong''s infantry.


    In the first world war yesterday, Cao Hong lost more than 2000 soldiers, leaving 8000 infantry. Although there are 8000 infantry under his command, the combat effectiveness is less than 2000 cavalry.


    So that Cao Hong''s infantry fighting for a while, soon began to show signs of decline.


    However, Cao Hong broke through again and again.


    He wants to kill.


    Unfortunately, he broke through the encirclement several times in a row, but he was dragged by the cavalry and couldn''t get out.


    As time went by, Cao Hong''s face became more anxious. Especially as the war continued, more and more infantry under his command were killed, and Cao Hong''s face was even more eager.


    If you don''t kill him, Huang Zhong will come.


    We must seize the time.


    Otherwise, none of them can escape.


    "Break through and get out!"


    Cao Hong cried out, hoping that all his soldiers would break through.


    If you''re trapped, you''re all going to be killed.


    Unfortunately, Cao Hong was entangled and could not break through. In particular, Huang Zhong''s cavalry were very smart and scattered. Later, they came back to cover up and kill, so that the people who broke through the encirclement were killed quickly.


    In particular, there were many soldiers fighting around Cao Hong. Even though Cao Hong was surrounded by a large number of troops, he could not stand the constant impact of cavalry, and cavalry constantly came to cover up, which made Cao Hong unable to get out even if he broke through the encirclement continuously.


    "Da! Dada


    All of a sudden, the sound of horses'' hoofs came again.


    Boom!!


    The horseshoe sound of the mountain and tsunami is more and more powerful and urgent.


    In the rear of Cao Hong and his party, Huang Zhong killed them.


    Huang Zhong led the cavalry to go on their way first, and soon they entered the battlefield. After he entered the battlefield with a long sword, the blade swung. With the light of the sword flashing, Cao''s soldiers were killed by Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes fell on Cao Hong.


    A smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    Today we will cut off Cao Hong and one of Cao Cao''s arms.

 Chapter 750

    "Cao Hong, take your life!"


    Huang Zhong drinks low and approaches Cao Hong quickly with a knife. When the distance between the two sides is less than ten steps, Gong Li is one step out. Gong Li had a big gun in his hand, and he stabbed it.


    Whew!


    The point of the gun broke into the air, with a sharp whistling sound, and in an instant came to Huang Zhong''s body.


    Huang Zhong is not arrogant and impetuous. As soon as he bends down, he dodges the spear. The blade of his long knife was tilted upward to cut out. A knife as fast as lightning, from the palace ceremony lower abdomen cut, cut chest, open intestines broken belly, and then cut from the chest.


    "Poof!"


    Blood spattered out.


    Bloodstains all over the floor.


    Gong Li screamed, and his body fell down.


    After Huang Zhong killed Gong Li with a knife, he didn''t look at Gong Li and drove his horse forward. Although Cao Hong''s bodyguards have been killing one after another to resist the delay, Huang Zhong''s long sword keeps cutting out and falling, and all the soldiers who resist him are killed.


    A moment later, Huang Zhong was in front of Cao Hong.


    "Chop!"


    Huang Zhong drinks low.


    The long sword in his hand revolves in the air and is ready for power. After the power is poured, the long sword swings in the air and splits off. With a knife, the roaring sound turned into a streamer, as if the Tianhe river was pouring down.


    Cao Hong is also a valiant general. He looks solemn and raises the long sword quickly.


    "Dang!"


    The blade struck the blade.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strong force, the blade bends directly. In the end, the blade couldn''t bear the impact and flew out.


    The palm of Cao Hong''s sword was painful, and his face changed greatly.


    Huang Zhong is too strong.


    One move broke his sword.


    Huang Zhong fell with a knife, but failed to kill Cao Hong. His face remained unchanged, and he calmly cut off again. When the second knife fell, Cao Hong''s eyes shrank and he rolled off the horse.


    Rao is so, but the blade falls on the neck of the horse.


    Poof!!


    The red blood, like spring water, splashed directly.


    The horse fell to the ground with a plop of its neck. The horse''s body, shaking twice, also fell to the ground. At this time, Cao Hong, who fell to the ground, was even more shocked.


    Huang Zhong, so fierce!


    In Cao Hong''s opinion, Huang Zhong''s ferocity is no less than Zhang Xiu''s.


    Such a person, he is not the enemy.


    Cao Hong quickly stood up to avoid. But after he had just run two steps forward, Huang Zhong had already galloped up. The body of the war horse hit Cao Hong hard.


    Bang!!


    Under the impact of the big horse, Cao Hong''s body flew out as if struck by lightning.


    He vomited blood in his mouth.


    The impact just now not only hurt his internal organs, but also broke one of his ribs.


    Boom!!


    Cao Hong''s body fell to the ground.


    His waist strength, intention to stand up, but the waist pain, wave after wave hit, so that even if he strength, also can''t lift a little strength.


    At this moment, Cao Hong felt like he was stabbed by a needle.


    Incomparable pain!


    Cao Hong''s eyes showed a look of despair, because from the corner of his eyes, Huang Zhong''s cavalry were constantly killing his soldiers. Under the slaughter of cavalry, Cao Hong''s soldiers could not resist, and became the fish on Huang Zhong''s chopping board.


    Countless deaths and injuries!


    There was only a scream.


    Da! Da!


    The sound of the horse''s hooves suddenly sounded in Cao Hong''s ear, but Huang Zhong had already killed the horse. In the twinkling of an eye, Huang Zhong came to Cao Hong and swung his long sword.


    In the sun, the blade is shining.


    Even people can''t open their eyes. Cao Hong''s eyes are closed and he''s dead.


    "Puchi!"


    The blade falls and cuts itself from the neck.


    Poof!


    Endless blood splashed from Cao Hong''s neck. His body twitched twice, and there was no breath. Huang Zhong killed Cao Hong with a knife. Looking around, he roared, "Cao Hong is dead. Those who fall will not be killed!"


    "Cao Hong is dead, those who fall will not be killed!"


    At Huang Zhong''s side, the soldiers yelled.


    "Cao Hong is dead, those who fall will not be killed!"


    "Cao Hong is dead, those who fall will not be killed!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly reverberate. More and more soldiers are shouting, but Rao is so. There are also Cao soldiers who are resisting. Even if there were Cao Jun who surrendered, they were not the majority. On the contrary, those who resisted accounted for the majority.


    Unilateral slaughter continues.


    There are more and more deaths and injuries.


    Half an hour later, there was no one on the battlefield to resist except the Cao soldiers who surrendered. All the Cao soldiers who resisted have been killed.


    "Clean up the battlefield!"Huang Zhong ordered that his soldiers quickly detain the prisoners and clean up the battlefield.


    Near noon, Huang Zhong returned to Deng county with his team. And the results were also reported. In this war, Huang Zhong''s cavalry lost no more than 300 people, but Cao''s soldiers killed more than 4000.


    There were more than 2000 Cao soldiers who surrendered, and some of them fled.


    Huang Zhong is satisfied with the result.


    Huang Zhong recaptured Deng county. After the army entered the city, he met Deng Kui. Although Deng Kui is a native of Deng County, he is in fact young, less than 30 years old.


    However, Deng Kui was flexible in dealing with affairs, and he managed the place quite well.


    Huang Zhong looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "magistrate Deng, now the grain in the city has been burned. Should some of the grain in Deng county be transferred from Xiangyang? "


    "No need!"


    Deng Kui shook his head and said, "when I got Cao Cao''s approach to Deng County, I arranged for people to remove half of the grain from the Treasury and hide it. Now half of the grain burned is from the government treasury, and some is from Cao Jun. Even if there is a lack of food, the remaining food is enough to maintain the operation of Deng county. "


    "Well done!"


    After hearing this, Huang Zhong reached out and patted Deng Kui on the shoulder, praising him and saying, "you are very good, very flexible and very intelligent. Your credit will be reported to the Lord


    Deng Kui said, "General Huang, thank you very much."


    Huang Zhong continued: "Deng county is now in your hands. Next, Ben will go to Yin County, ready to meet with the Lord. After solving Cao Hong in Deng County, our goal is Cao Cao and Liu Bei. "


    Deng Kui said: "General Huang, please rest assured that I will handle the affairs of Deng County well."


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, the sentry came back quickly.


    Sentinel came to Huang Zhong''s body, reported: "general, Taiwei urgent report."


    Huang Zhong took the letter, opened it and quickly read it. When he saw the contents of the letter, he suddenly burst into laughter, which was filled with joy and pride.


    Deng Kui asked, "General Huang, did the Taiwei win?"


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong said: "the Lord is in Yin county. He defeated Cao Cao''s 60000 troops with less. Now Cao Cao and Liu Bei, with less than 30000 troops, have retreated to Xinye county. "


    "The army led by the Lord is on the way to Xinye."


    "Now my Lord has sent me a decree that I should go straight to Xinye instead of Yin County after I have taken Deng county. Although the Lord never ordered me to attack Deng County, he had expected my action. "


    Huang Zhong''s face is full of smiles.


    Originally, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were killed by the Allied forces, which was a great threat. Now, Cao Cao and Liu Bei have lost for a while, and the situation is different.


    Deng Kui was also happy and said: "Taiwei is really good at using troops. This time, Cao Cao and Liu Bei had 70000 elite soldiers at the beginning and 60000 since Deng county. In such a short time, Taiwei defeated Cao Cao and Liu Bei and was worthy of being a famous general of the generation. "


    Huang Zhong was very glad to hear that. He did not delay. He mobilized his troops and left Deng county. He went all the way north to Xinye in the north.


    From Deng county to Xinye, he had to go through Yuyang county and other places. However, after the news of Cao Cao''s defeat came out, Huang Zhong''s journey to the North was extremely smooth.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Xinye County, Huang Zhong''s army arrived at the same time.


    The two armies converged in Xinye county.


    When Huang Zhong saw Zhang Xiu, he was excited and said: "Lord, in the first battle of Deng County, Cao Hong was killed in a humble position. Although Cao Hong''s body is already buried, Cao Hong''s head is treated with lime, packed in a brocade box, and taken to the north. "


    "Yes, Cao Hong is useful."


    There is a smile in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    This time, Cao Cao has damaged a great general. I expect that Cao Cao will feel heartache again.


    When the armies of Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong converge, the number of the two armies has exceeded 50000. In the number of troops, Zhang Xiu has occupied the advantage.

 Chapter 751

    Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong meet, continue north, all the way to the county seat of Xinye county. More than 50000 troops, vast and powerful, were soon discovered by Cao Cao''s Sentinel.


    The news reached Guo Jia in Xinye county. Guo Jia looked at the news and came to the room on the upper floor of the city. Seeing Cao Cao, he reported: "Lord, there is news about Deng county."


    Cao Cao took a look at Guo Jia''s face and his heart sank.


    In my heart, I am extremely worried.


    It''s over!


    It must be bad news.


    Otherwise, Guo Jia would not look like this.


    Cao Cao put his hands on the desk in front of him, stood up and said, "fengxiao, but Deng county is falling down?"


    "Yes


    Guo Jia nodded and replied,


    Cao Cao said again, "is there any news from Cao Hong?"


    "No!"


    Guo Jia shook her head and answered.


    Immediately, Guo Jia said: "the news sent back by the sentinel is that Huang Zhong has broken Deng county. I don''t know anything else. After all, in many places south of Xinye, there are checkpoints set by Zhang Xiu. Now, we don''t have more detailed information. "


    "Zi Lian, Zi Lian, you must come back."


    "Be sure to come back!"


    Cao Cao clenched his fist and murmured to himself. He even reproached himself: "at the beginning, I shouldn''t have left Zi Lian in Deng county. I didn''t expect that Deng county would become the burial ground of Zi Lian. "


    Zi Lian is Cao Hong''s character.


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord, don''t worry. General Cao Hong is very lucky. He will come back safely if he can adapt to circumstances."


    "I hope so!"


    Cao Cao nodded solemnly.


    At this moment, Cao Cao''s heart suddenly became restless and extremely uncomfortable. Originally, he was defeated in the first World War in Yinxian county. Although Cao Cao lost his army and killed countless soldiers, he was not so sad.


    On the battlefield, victory and defeat are inevitable.


    This is normal.


    Cao Hong is not the same, that is his most trusted confidant, but also like a brother in general.


    Seeing that Cao Cao was agitated, Guo Jia advised: "Lord, in the present situation, we must not mess with ourselves just because of general Cao Hong''s affairs. If Zhang Xiu has not arrived, she will be in a mess. The next war will be more difficult to deal with. "


    "Now, we have to guard Xinye."


    "Whether general Cao Hong is here or not, we have to cheer up."


    "If general Cao Hong escapes, it''s the best. And if general Cao Hong is here, we can''t lose Xinye. If, if general Cao Hong is really not here, we have to avenge general Cao Hong. "


    "In any case, we must have the spirit to deal with this war rationally."


    Guo Jia looked serious and said, "if you think so much that after Zhang Xiu comes here, you will be at a loss. In the end, we will suffer."


    "Hoo!"


    Cao Cao took a deep breath and a long sigh of relief.


    At this moment, Cao Cao quickly straightened out the mood in his heart and made himself calm again. After half a sound, Cao Cao''s mood gradually stabilized, and his expression also returned to calm. Then he arched his hand and said, "fengxiao, thank you for your reminding."


    "It''s a matter of humble duty," Guo said


    Cao Cao inquired: "how long is the distance between the army led by Zhang Xiu and Xinye?"


    Guo Jia said: "one day at most. If Zhang Xiu is on her way faster, she will arrive at Xinye in half a day."


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "how is the recruitment going now?"


    Once back in Xinye, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both recruiting soldiers to strengthen themselves.


    Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Xinye county was once under the rule of Zhang Xiu, and the people were deeply influenced by Zhang Xiu. We have recruited soldiers. To this day, only more than 4000 have joined the army. Liu Bei only recruited 2000 soldiers. In fact, in a big county like Xinye, if we want to recruit soldiers under normal circumstances, we can easily recruit tens of thousands of people. "


    Cao Cao sighed: "this is Zhang Xiu''s ability to convince the people under her rule. However, we have recruited more than 4000 soldiers, and with our own more than 20000 troops, we have nearly 30000. With Liu Bei''s nearly 10000 soldiers, about 40000. Such a force, to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, should not be difficult. Now, after all, we are on the side of the city. "


    Guo Jia said, "what the LORD said is true."


    Cao Cao said, "have you ever prepared the weapons for guarding the city, such as grain and equipment?"


    Guo Jia said: "everything is ready. Now, we just need to wait for Zhang Xiu to arrive. Last time, when we were in Yin County, we stormed Yin county and suffered countless losses. This time, let Zhang Xiu try to attack Xinye. Although Zhang Xiu has a large number of troops, as long as Zhang Xiu makes a strong attack in this war, the gap between the two sides will be even after his troops are reduced. "


    Cao Cao nodded in agreement.


    They talked about the arrangement of the war, and time passed unconsciously.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was close to the time of the afternoon.Cao ang came to Cao Cao''s room in a hurry and reported: "father, I just got the latest news. The army led by Zhang Xiu is less than six miles away from the county seat. Here comes the army of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Come on, let''s go up to the castle!"


    After hearing this, Cao Cao stood up and went out.


    Guo Jia and Cao ang came to the tower.


    Lu Bu, Xu Chu, Dian Wei and others, in addition to Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan and others, all came to the city tower one by one. All of them were ready for the arrival of Zhang Xiu.


    Time goes by little.


    Soon after, I saw the official road outside the city, suddenly smoke everywhere.


    Boom!!


    The dense sound of horse''s hooves, trampling on the ground, made the ground tremble.


    White figures, running fast.


    Three thousand white horses are coming from here. The three thousand white horses under Zhao Yun''s command were fierce. In the twinkling of an eye, they were already stationed outside the city. The horses were snorting, and the soldiers had high morale on their faces.


    After baimayi was in the array, the Feixiong army and the Heishan army were in the array together.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward to the front of the army.


    Cao Cao swept Zhang Xiu''s army and flashed a dignified look in his eyes. It has to be said that Zhang Xiu''s army is indeed a division of hundred battles and a real elite.


    Da! Da!


    The horse''s hooves sounded.


    Dressed in armor, Zhang Xiu rode forward. He came to the South Gate of the county, looked up to the city floor and said in a loud voice, "where is Cao Sikong


    "I''m here!"


    Cao Cao raised his head and said, "Zhang Xiu, I didn''t expect that you had arrived in Xinye so quickly."


    Zhang xiudao said: "how can I dally when the enemy comes into my home. If I slow down a bit, I''m afraid Cao Sikong will empty my belongings. However, Cao Sikong had to come to Nanyang County in the air crash. I prepared a little gift for Cao Sikong. "


    As soon as he waved, a soldier came forward with a brocade box and quickly came to the foot of the tower. The soldiers put the brocade box outside the city and quickly returned it.


    Cao Cao had a puzzled look in his eyes and said, "Zhang Xiu, what tricks are you playing?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "what tricks can Cao Sikong see."


    As soon as Cao Cao waved his hand, some soldiers went down to the city tower. First they opened the city gate, then they put down the suspension bridge, walked out of the city along the suspension bridge, and quickly got back the brocade box. With the suspension bridge pulled up and the gate closed, the soldiers came to Cao Cao and handed over the brocade box.


    One side of the Dian Wei, first step forward to open, to avoid the box has adverse effects on Cao Cao. Just when Dian Wei opened the brocade box, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    "Cao Hong!"


    Dian Wei called out the name of the head in the brocade box.


    This is Cao Hong''s head.


    Boom!!


    In Cao Cao''s mind, there seems to be thunder. In a flash, Cao Cao''s mind was blank, and his face was full of pain.


    Dead!


    Cao Hong is dead!


    His brother Cao Hong was killed.

 Chapter 752

    Not far away, Liu Bei stood in armor, his face was very serious. Especially when others look at Zhang Xiu, deep in their eyes, there is deep hatred and endless resentment.


    Zhang Xiu is the enemy of his life.


    He swore to kill Zhang Xiu.


    But when Liu Bei heard Dianwei''s words, his mind turned. He once stayed under the command of Cao Cao and knew the identity of Cao Hong. Cao Hong is Cao Cao''s real lineage and the son of Cao family.


    But now, Cao Hong is dead.


    Cao Cao must be angry.


    Although Liu Bei looks dignified on the face, he doesn''t have much sadness in his heart. On the contrary, he has some secret joy. Because Cao Hong died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu are endless hatred.


    In this way, Cao Cao will go all out.


    In this way, Liu Bei may have a chance to hide behind and reap the benefits.


    Zhuge Liang gently shakes his feather fan and looks at Zhang Xiu standing proudly outside the city. There is a complex look in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu is so powerful.


    Once in Xiangyang, Zhuge Liang saw the power of Zhang Xiu''s mouth, and Zhang Xiu made countless profits by playing tricks. But at that time, Zhang Xiu was a brave man, even in a mess.


    As long as Liu Biao is stronger, Zhang Xiu can''t be based in Jingzhou, and can''t have the present achievements. But no one thought that the crude Wufu, who was born in Xiliang, would have the capital to be proud of all the princes.


    Cao Cao''s hands tugged at the city wall, wide eyed and breathing. His chest, ups and downs. Especially the temple, is buzzing.


    After a long time, Cao Cao regained his calm.


    Hoo!!


    Cao Cao took a long breath and stared at Zhang Xiu. His face was livid and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, you kill me Cao Hong. I don''t want to be with you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Unexpectedly, Cao Cao also said such words. He was really dazzled by anger.


    Zhang Xiu disdained to say: "Cao Sikong, when you didn''t enter Jingzhou, you and I were Weng son-in-law. Although they have their own positions and the relationship is not very harmonious, at least they are still married. "


    "When I see you, Cao Cao, I will call you my father-in-law."


    "But you take the army and fight into Jingzhou. Everything is different. To cut off one''s fortune is like killing one''s parents. What''s more, you are under my rule, which is more serious than killing your parents. "


    "Since you came to Jingzhou, we have been immortal. We have been immortal."


    Zhang Xiu''s words were sharp, and his resentment against Cao''s family broke out completely. She said, "I didn''t attack you, Cao Cao, but you attacked me first. Come on, come on, I''ll show you again. "


    When talking, Zhang Xiu took out a bright yellow imperial edict from her sleeve, spread it out and said, "do you see it? This is the emperor''s edict that I should fight against the Cao thief. "


    "The Emperor himself issued an imperial edict, but I, Zhang Xiu, didn''t send troops against you from beginning to end."


    "Why, you are my father-in-law!"


    "But you sent out the troops."


    Zhang Xiu looked distressed and said, "I didn''t lose you Cao Cao, but you Cao Cao got good. When you saw my army in Yizhou, you attacked me regardless of everything. Cao Hong is dead. What do you say? Hum, it''s really puzzling. Cao Hong is dead. He deserves what he deserves. You Cao Cao killed him. "


    The sound of words, like a knife, poked into Cao Cao''s heart.


    Cao Cao was even more distressed.


    Although Cao Cao was deeply distressed, he said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, don''t talk about yourself so magnificently and openly. Why didn''t you take out the imperial edict to make me angry, or even wait for me to return to Xudu, with the intention of using me to deal with the emperor? "


    "It''s not wise to sow discord."


    "What''s more, you got the imperial edict. Why don''t you crusade against me. It''s not that you don''t want to, it''s that you don''t have the strength, let alone the opportunity. Yizhou has not been leveled, and the rear area is unstable. How can we crusade? "


    However, Cao Cao was calm and said slowly, "how great you are when you talk about yourself, but I, Cao Cao, despise you. If you kill me, Cao Hong, I will kill you. "


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised.


    I didn''t expect that Cao Cao was so rational when he was stimulated that he was not affected by anything. He could even accurately guess what he thought.


    Such Cao Cao is the real Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cao Cao, you say that, you look down on yourself too much."


    "What can you do with Cao Cao''s troops?"


    "In the past, when I was in Nanyang County, even if I broke tens of thousands of your troops, captured Cao ang and others alive, or even defeated your troops, I didn''t have the strength to drive straight in."


    "But after I captured Guanzhong and took control of Liangzhou, I still had the strength and the ability to enter Yanzhou even though Yizhou was unfair. If I don''t kill you, I''m afraid that it''s Cao Jie''s father daughter friendship. "Zhang Xiu said: "you forget the past. I went to Xuchang to report on my work. In your army, it''s a scene of pressing the generals in your army. In my eyes, you Cao Cao''s people are all local chickens


    Cao Cao''s face twitched when he heard it.


    Zhang Xiu is such a slippery boy.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "so don''t take revenge for Cao Hong. Cao Cao drives his troops into Jingzhou for his benefit. In the end, Cao Hong''s death in Jingzhou was due to you, Cao Cao. "


    "Now, in the name of revenge for Cao Hong, people look down upon him."


    "You come for the benefit, I defend for the benefit, both sides fight, life and death are safe. Cao Cao, I, Zhang Xiu, am just outside the castle of Xinye county. Who dares to fight with me, a group of local people under Cao Cao''s command? "


    Zhang Xiu is fighting again.


    He had expectations in his eyes, because he knew that Cao Cao now had Lu Bu.


    Cao Cao sneered: "Zhang Xiu, you really think you are invincible."


    If he didn''t recruit Lv Bu, Cao Cao didn''t dare to send someone to fight against Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu''s strength is far beyond his command. Even Dian Wei is still invincible in front of Zhang Xiu.


    But Cao Cao now has Lu Bu.


    Lu Bu''s painting halberd with a square sky is really the best in the world, which is invincible.


    This is Cao Cao''s strength.


    Cao Cao turned to look at Lv Bu and said in a deep voice, "Fengxian, go out to fight and take Zhang Xiu for me."


    Lu Bu looked at Zhang Xiu and saw her white face. She said in a deep voice: "Cao Sikong, Zhang Xiu is a young man with a powerful mouth, not a powerful role."


    After a pause, Lu Bu continued: "I knew Zhang Xiu in the Xiliang army in the past. Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are much worse than those of Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others under your command. Dian Wei and others are enough to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    To Zhang Xiu, Lv Bu never put in the eye.


    It''s less than a day for these kids.


    Cao Cao shook his head and said: "Fengxian, we must not underestimate Zhang Xiu. This man seems to be handsome, but in fact he has excellent martial arts. Both Dian Wei and Xu Chu were defeated by Zhang Xiu. Their martial arts are not as good as Zhang Xiu. "


    "Seriously?"


    Lu Bu was a little surprised.


    His eyes, more full of curiosity, gradually have a sense of war. Lu Bu was born for war, and his martial arts are just like that.


    Cao Cao nodded solemnly and said, "you will know as soon as you try. I remind you to be careful. If you lose to Zhang Xiu, I''m afraid the saying that Lu Bu and Ma Zhong are red rabbits will be renamed. "


    "It''s not worth mentioning that it''s just Zhang Xiu."


    Lu Bu walked away with a big stride. He got down from the castle. Soon after, the gate opened. Lu Bu sat on the red rabbit''s horse and rode out with a big stride in his armor.


    The red rabbit and horse on his crotch are all red, and his armor is also red. The clothes inside and the Cape behind are all red. The whole person is like a fire red lightning, which is shocking.


    "Da! Dada


    The red rabbit horse walks slowly, like a king in the horse.


    "Zhang Xiu, I''ll meet you."


    Lu Bu was carrying the halberd painted by Fang Tian, and his fighting spirit was gradually rising. As long as he went to the battlefield, he would concentrate on nothing but fighting.


    Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand and took the overlord''s gun from the soldier''s hand. In her eyes, her fighting spirit was also very strong. As a general, where there is a wild hope, that is the crown of the world.


    Literature is no first, martial arts is no second.


    Lu Bu!


    So is Zhang Xiu!

 Chapter 753

    Lu Bu was as red as a god of war in the fire. That breathtaking breath, not only did not let Zhang Xiu fear, but aroused Zhang Xiu''s high morale. The wind from his crotch galloped out, and the wind at this moment was also restless, with a loud nose.


    Not long ago, Zhang Xiu was less than ten steps away from Lu Bu.


    Lu Bu looked at Zhang Xiu in front of him and didn''t despise her. When he was on the tower, he saw Zhang Xiu beautiful and handsome, just like a gentleman. But in front of her, Zhang Xiu was enterprising and angular, especially a pair of sword eyebrows. Her eyes seemed to penetrate people.


    In fact, Lu Bu met Zhang Xiu.


    Once in the Xiliang army, Lu Bu knew that Zhang Xiu was a little boy and that Zhang Xiu had a good shot.


    But only good.


    Once Lu Bu did not put Zhang Xiu in his eyes. But now I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s martial arts were so advanced that even Dian Wei and Xu Chu could defeat her. Lu Bu, Dian Wei and Xu Chu had a hand in hand. No matter which one he was, he was extremely skilled in martial arts.


    Although these two men are not Lu Bu''s opponents, they are extremely rare experts.


    Lu Bu took Fang Tian''s painting halberd and said, "Zhang Xiu, I''m surprised. Unexpectedly, the little doll of the past has become the overlord. Not only that, but also the martial arts are advancing by leaps and bounds. Even Xu Chu and Dian Wei are not your rivals. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, I was also very surprised. I didn''t expect that the once invincible Marquis LV Wen was invincible in the world. Now, it is reduced to the situation of being subordinate to others and relying on others. "


    Lu Bu''s cheek was unable to hang.


    However, regardless of the change of Lv Bu''s expression, Zhang Xiu continued: "the Lv Bu I know is not what I am today."


    "Nine years ago, Lu Bu was very high spirited. He was a hero in the world before Hulao pass. He was so overbearing. Among the people, Lu Bu, among the horses, red rabbit, and the world''s military generals, all take Lu Bu as an example. "


    "Seven years ago, Lu Bu was a man of great courage. He killed Dong Zhuo in front of the grand hall and mastered the government."


    "At that time, Lu Bu was very powerful."


    "It''s a pity that the more you muddle back, the more you muddle back. You can''t stay in Chang''an and are expelled by Li Xi and Guo Si; you flee to Yuan Shu''s command, wantonly arrogant and despised by Yuan Shu; you spread to Xuzhou and usurp Liu Bei''s Xuzhou by villain means."


    "Now under the command of Cao Cao, I don''t know. How are you going to do it?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were full of disdain and said: "you Lvbu, kill Dingyuan, rebel against Dong Zhuo, and defeat Liu Bei. Now, do you want to betray Cao again? Especially when you see Liu Bei in Xinye County, how do you feel? "


    Lu Bu''s face changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu, a smelly boy, has a bad mouth. He''s so damn.


    "Child, seek death!"


    Lu Bu is completely angry. He originally wanted to talk about the past with Zhang Xiu. By the way, he took this opportunity to suppress Zhang Xiu''s arrogance. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu''s mouth is too vicious. In his anger, Lu Bu swung the halberd of Fang Tian''s painting in his hand and shot it horizontally.


    It''s a very simple move, but Fang Tian''s painting halberd locks Zhang Xiu, and his killing intention falls down from Fang Tian''s painting halberd.


    The mighty offensive is irresistible.


    Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    The overlord gun is in hand. Twist your waist to send force. Run all the power into the overlord gun and face it.


    "Dang!"


    Weapon impact, power burst.


    Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu each threw their weapons to unload the power from the weapons. Without stopping, they swung their weapons to attack each other again. Zhang Xiu''s attack, such as the storm, did not have the slightest stagnation.


    Lu Bu''s attack was as strong as a river. Every move of Lu Bu is sharp and domineering. In particular, it looks like a light blow, but it''s like a Mount Tai.


    Lu Bu''s realm has long been a combination of hardness and softness, and his moves are natural without any flaws.


    Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu fought each other bravely.


    Zhang Xiu, who has just come back from crossing, will definitely not be an opponent against Lv Bu. Over the past few years, Zhang Xiu has been practicing hard, and her own strength has been growing a little bit. He practiced in winter and summer. After years of training, his martial arts reached the peak.


    In the face of Lu Bu''s attack, Zhang Xiu no longer simply attacks with brute force, but uses a hundred birds to shoot the Phoenix in his hands. It''s amazing and wonderful.


    Zhao Yun, not far away, marveled at this scene.


    Zhao Yun''s marksmanship is extremely powerful.


    Especially after following Zhang Xiu, under the guidance of Zhang Xiu, his shooting technique has been born out of the gun of a hundred birds to the Phoenix, and created his own seven probe plate snake gun. His shooting technique has reached its peak and has the atmosphere of great masters.


    But every time Zhao Yun competes with Zhang Xiu, he is defeated.


    Now I see Zhang Xiu''s all-out efforts, especially the moves in Zhang Xiu''s hundred birds in the morning. Every move has changed from complicated to simple. However, it is extremely powerful, tricky and agile, but it is also hard and fierce.


    Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "my Lord''s shooting skill is better than before."


    He followed Zhang Xiu for some time.


    As a master of swordsmanship, Wang Yue''s swordsmanship has already combined hardness and softness. We can see the strength of Zhang Xiu, which is extremely shocking.Zhao Yun echoed: "the Lord is powerful, and Lv Bu is also powerful. When they fight each other, they really match each other. "


    Wang Yue nodded in agreement.


    Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu, who are fighting each other, are inseparable.


    Zhang Xiu''s shooting skill is extremely tricky, but she can combine hardness with softness. Lu Bu''s painting of halberd is as clever as clumsy, but it can turn decay into magic. It is as sharp as an antelope.


    The two men who fought each other were immersed in the fighting.


    There is no division between the top and the bottom.


    The curtain fell on the tower. When Cao Cao saw it, his heart was itching with hatred. He wanted Zhang Xiu to die in Lv Bu''s hands. However, Zhang Xiu''s ability is inferior to that of Lv Bu.


    Dian Wei''s tiger eyes glared at the boss and said in a deep voice: "Lord, Zhang Xiu has made great progress compared with when she was fighting with the last general. At that time, Zhang Xiu and the last general fought. Although Zhang Xiu won, it was not easy to win. "


    "Even though they tried to resist, they were still far from each other."


    "Now Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu are fighting each other, but they don''t fall behind. Zhang Xiu is too terrible. The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu is only in her early twenties, not the peak of her martial arts. "


    "In a few years, I''m afraid there will be no match for Zhang Xiu in the world."


    Dian Wei''s eyes were dignified and said with emotion: "at that time, even LV Wenhou is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent."


    Cao Cao clenched his teeth when he heard the speech.


    He clenched his fist and beat it on the wall. He hated Zhang Xiu for being so powerful.


    Liu Bei was even more shocked when he saw it.


    When I was at hulaoguan, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought against Lv Bu, though they won. But at that time, it wasn''t really a victory. It was Lu Bu who didn''t want to fight that he took the initiative to retreat.


    Now Zhang Xiu is fighting against Lv Bu alone.


    Especially when Liu Bei thinks of the battle between the three brothers in hulaoguan and Lv Bu, he thinks of the dead Zhang Fei. The look in his eyes at Zhang Xiu is full of anger and anger. He wants Lv Bu to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Even Liu Bei was hostile to Lu Bu.


    In contrast, Liu Bei hated Zhang Xiu more. Because of Zhang Xiu, his third brother died in Yin county.


    Guan Yu stands behind Liu Bei with a red face, but in the eyes of Danfeng eyes, he is unwilling and helpless. As an expert in martial arts and a fierce general on the battlefield, Guan Yu has his own pride.


    But just like this, seeing the strength of Lv Bu and Zhang Xiu, my heart is deep despair and helplessness.


    I can''t catch up.


    Even if he is fierce, he is still out of reach in front of Lv Bu and Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu fight, go all out, the mind has been infused. He did not expect that the fight with Lu Bu would attract so many people''s emotion. Now he has only one idea, that is to win the war.


    He wants to defeat Lu Bu.


    He is the king of the battlefield.

 Chapter 754

    The fight between Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu goes on continuously. From a quarter of an hour to two quarters of an hour, half an hour has passed. At this time, the strength of the two did not weaken at all.


    This scene shocked people.


    Are they all monsters?


    Lu Bu and Zhang Xiu are totally unaware that they are already immersed in competition and fighting. There is no difference between civil and military affairs. If we don''t separate a high from a low, we will never stop fighting. If you don''t give up, you will never give up.


    It''s a fight between warriors.


    It''s more about the dignity of the warrior.


    The sound of banging is heard all the time.


    Now, the competition between the two is not only the competition between the two, even the horses in their respective crotch are biting and kicking each other, intending to win the battle.


    When Lu Bu''s eyes turned and Fang Tian waved the halberd, he thought about it in his heart and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, when I was in the battlefield. You are still suckling. I think your Uncle Zhang Ji offended me and was forced to kneel and kowtow by me. Then, Ben spared him. If not, your uncle would have died under my painting halberd. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was not angry.


    He knew that this was Lu Bu''s provocation. Lu Bu deliberately wanted to make him angry and make his moves disordered. Then Lu Bu could take advantage of the situation to attack.


    Zhang Xiu''s surprise is that Lu Bu can use the method of arousing generals.


    It''s not easy!


    A man who can fight all over the world in troubled times, even if he kills countless people, even if he betrays the old lord several times, is not ordinary.


    Zhang Xiu held up her gun and said, "Lv Bu, I heard that your wife Diao Chan was born with a beautiful face. At that time, she was Wang Yun''s adopted daughter. "


    "It''s said that she was a adopted daughter, but she used to be a servant girl in Wang Yun''s family."


    "Maid, it''s easy to be spoiled!"


    "Especially after she was given to Dong Zhuo by Wang Yun, she was spoiled by Dong Zhuo."


    If Zhang Xiu didn''t export, he would go straight to Lv Bu''s wound and hit Lv Bu''s weakness.


    Lu Bu''s face suddenly changed.


    Diao Chan was, indeed, Wang Yun''s adopted daughter; Diao Chan was, indeed, robbed by Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo for the sake of power and Diao Chan.


    Lv Bu intends to infuriate Zhang Xiu, but he doesn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s mouth is more poisonous. With one open mouth, Lu Bu was furious. Although he was more aggressive, he lost his organization.


    Zhang Xiu a burst of attack, but Lu Bu is also steady to resist.


    The fight between the two continues.


    Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I will kill you today."


    When Zhang Xiu took the gun to attack, she said again: "Marquis Wen, when you stayed in Dunlun with Diao Chan at night, did you ever think that Diao Chan''s delicate body had been oppressed and ravaged by Dong Zhuo. What a scene that scene should be. A pear flower presses a Begonia. Oh, I can''t think of it. "


    "Zhang Xiu child, seek death!"


    When Lv Bu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he became very angry.


    Fang Tianhua''s Halberd is waving like a storm, attacking constantly. In the face of Lu Bu''s attack, Zhang Xiu still keeps tight and never loses.


    Zhang Xiu raised a disdainful smile at the corner of her mouth.


    On bickering!


    Lv Bu is too weak. If Lv Bu does not provoke, he will not fight back like this. In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, Lv Bu is highly skilled in martial arts, but when it comes to bickering, Lv Bu is just like a weak chicken, which is not worthy of Zhang Xiu''s support.


    Cao Cao on the tower wants to laugh at Zhang Xiu''s words. Although he used Lu Bu, he did not use it without restriction and did not give him military power.


    Lu Bu''s generals, such as Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, were all transferred away, and his counselor Chen Gong was once again under his command.


    Today, Lu Bu is a lonely man.


    This is Cao Cao''s heart.


    Even if, once Chen Gong betrayed Cao Cao, Cao Cao almost lost Yanzhou, but Cao Cao to Chen Gong, still did not kill, still willing to reuse Chen Gong.


    Cao Cao stares at the battlefield and shakes his head slightly. Lu Bu instigates first, but falls into the disadvantage.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Cao Cao on the city floor and said again, "Lv Bu, speaking of your woman Diao Chan, I have a lot to say. Dong Zhuo''s affairs have passed. There''s no need to talk about them again. But it''s really wrong for you to submit to Cao Cao. "


    "Kill


    Lu Bu roared, and Fang Tian''s painting halberd was faster and faster.


    One move in one style, hard and fierce without casting.


    Lightning is faster.


    Cao Cao was on the tower. He was a little surprised to hear how he was involved.


    Zhang Xiu holding the overlord gun, straddling on the horse, firmly resist. He continued: "Cao Cao is an expert in military and government affairs. He is very powerful."


    "But Cao Cao has one shortcoming. He likes other people''s wives."


    "Now you''re going to obey Cao Cao. I''m afraid Cao Cao has salivated on Diao Chan in private. If he wants to kill you, he will take Diao Chan back and trample him on his bed."Zhang Xiu talks with a smile.


    "Ah Zhang Xiu, you want to die. "


    Lu Bu roared, angry.


    At this moment, Lu Bu became furious. Diao Chan is the weakness in Lu Bu''s heart and the scale in his heart. No one can challenge him. In Lu Bu''s heart, Diao Chan is the most gentle and soft one.


    There is no room for defilement.


    Lu Bu roared and attacked, but Cao Cao on the tower was muttering in his heart. He really adores women, because this broken woman knows the amorous feelings, unlike a boudoir woman, who doesn''t know the amorous feelings under the bed at all.


    However, Cao Cao had a thick face. He beat the wall with his fist and made an angry look. He scolded: "Zhang Xiu, in order to provoke Lv Bu, he really has nothing to do but slander him wantonly."


    He looked left and right, then down the city.


    Lu Bu was furious and his attack was fierce. But such a fierce attack did not last long, because under the fury of the attack, the offensive became disordered and out of order.


    Lu Bu''s Halberd is cut off by Fang Tian''s painting. In the old moment, the overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand turns from fierce to light. The gun comes out like a python spitting out a message. A streamer of light flashes and the tip of the gun comes to Lu Bu''s body.


    Lu Bu quickly sidestepped to avoid.


    Rao is so late.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into Lu Bu''s right shoulder. The tip of the gun stirred, and it was drawn out like lightning.


    Poof!


    Red blood, like a spring splashing out.


    This is the key for Lu Bu to avoid his body. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s shot will be enough to pierce his vital parts. After Lu Bu was injured, he did not retreat. He was more like a furious lion. Fang Tianhua cut his halberd across his waist.


    Zhang Xiu raises her gun to block Lu Bu''s attack. After that, her move changes again and she raises her gun again.


    Lu Bu waved the halberd of Fang Tian''s painting and hit it hard.


    "Dang!"


    The crash, the crash.


    At this time, they fight each other. Zhang Xiu''s move is just fierce, and his strength goes all out, making Lv Bu go all out. At the wound, the blood is constantly flowing out, and there is no intention to stop.


    As soon as Lv Bu stopped, Zhang Xiu immediately followed him like gangrene attached to bones. The point of the gun moved forward again. With a puff, a hole was pierced in Lv Bu''s left shoulder.


    Lu Bu left and right shoulder injury, a pair of eyes, has been all over the red look, full of blood. He fell into a complete mania, to kill Zhang Xiu, can give up.


    Zhang Xiu kept fighting with Lv Bu, and they fought for more than 30 moves.


    At this time, Lu Bu was in the downwind.


    Cao Cao on the tower was very anxious. He quickly let people ring the Gong, but Lu Bu turned a deaf ear, as if he didn''t hear it, and was still fighting.


    Cao Cao raised his eyebrows and ordered: "Dian Wei, go out to meet Lv Bu."


    "Here it is


    Dian Wei carried two iron halberds and killed them quickly.


    Not long after, Dianwei drove his horse out. But when Dian Wei came out, Huang Zhongyi patted his horse on the back of his crotch and met him with a knife to intercept Dian Wei who was ready to rescue Lv Bu.


    Dian Wei saw that Huang Zhong was driving his horse to kill him. Huang Zhong raised his sword to fight back. When the two weapons collided, Dian Wei''s face changed a little.


    Huang Zhong is no less powerful than him.


    You should know that Dian Wei just now has gone all out, but Huang Zhong has no retreat, and he has the strength to fight back.


    It shows that Huang Zhong is powerful.


    Dian Wei and Huang Zhong fight together. For a moment, Dian Wei is unable to rescue Lv Bu, which makes Lv Bu and Zhang Xiu still fighting. Even though Lv Bu is in a bad situation, he is like a mad dog, intending to bite a piece of meat from Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 755

    Seeing the scene on the battlefield, Guo Jia suddenly raised her eyebrows and said, "Lv Bu, this guy is really a fool. At this time, we should withdraw immediately, but we are not willing to withdraw. "


    Xun you said, "Lord, you have to send someone to help you."


    Cao Cao ordered: "Xu Chu, you are also out of the city, ready to meet Lu Bu."


    "Here it is


    Xu Chu with a long knife, quickly down the tower.


    He drove his horse out and went straight to Lu Bu. After Xu Chu killed, Zhao Yun also ran up with his horse. Zhao Yun''s current shooting method is also a combination of hardness and softness. When he met Xu Chu, the Dragon gall and silver spear were as fast as lightning, and the spear went straight.


    A face to face, let Xu Chu feel great pressure.


    The two fight quickly.


    You come and I go, two people fight more than ten confluence, the same is hard to separate.


    The fighting under the castle is extremely fierce.


    Both Dian Wei and Xu Chu were stopped.


    This curtain fell in Cao Cao''s eyes. Cao Cao looked frightened and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, the general under his command is so powerful that even Dian Wei and Xu Chu can''t get any benefits."


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "Sikong, my second younger brother can fight."


    "OK, let''s invite Yun Chang to fight."


    Cao Cao knew about Guan Yu, and even appreciated Guan Yu. When he was in Hulao pass, Guan Yu cut Huaxiong with warm wine and faced Lu Bu with boundless style.


    Guan Yu with a knife, under the tower, not long after the horse out of the city. He killed out of the city, intending to go straight to Zhang Xiu, but saw a big figure riding out.


    "Green hat man, Grandpa will meet you."


    Shamoko came out with the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, shamoko is also a tiger general. He was born in Wuxi and had great strength. Ever since he was a child, shamoko has been fighting with beasts in the mountains, and his combat effectiveness is very strong. Especially when Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and other tiger generals were in the army, after the competition between Sha Moke and the others, he was more flexible and vigorous.


    In the face of Guan Yu, shamoko''s iron tribulus was smashed out.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of violent impact broke out from the blue dragon Yanyue knife and the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    "Ah, green hat man, you are so powerful."


    "I''m so scared!"


    Shamoko exclaimed and screamed, but the bone of Tribulus terrestris in his hand kept shaking and smashing. He said that he was afraid, but he acted very quickly and constantly attacked.


    Guan Yu''s face turned red with anger when he heard shamoko''s words.


    What is a green hat man?


    What is a green hat man?


    Guan Yu''s anger came from it, carrying the green dragon Yanyue sword, and kept on attacking.


    Shamoko resisted Guan Yu''s attack and kept teasing Guan Yu. Even if Guan Yu''s power was slightly stronger than him, shamoko was not afraid. In fact, shamoko will not lose in a short time, he is enough to block Guan Yu''s attack.


    This scene shocked Cao Cao.


    How many of Zhang Xiu''s heroes are there? Now, there are still people who can fight.


    "Lord, please fight


    It was then that Charlotte Houghton asked to fight.


    He is a madman on the battlefield. Although he is blind in one eye, his own strength does not decrease at all.


    Cao Cao nodded: "go!"


    XiahouDun turned and stepped back, and in a short time, XiahouDun rode out again. When he killed out, but see Wang Yue is galloping out. Because many of Zhang Xiu''s generals are not around. Now, Sha Moke, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong have all gone to war. The rest of them may not be able to resist. Wang Yue goes to war with his sword.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Seeing that the king was becoming more and more grey, Xia Houdun laughed and said with disdain: "is there no one under Zhang Xiu? He sent an old man up


    "Die


    Xia Houdun drove his horse close to Wang Yue, swung his long knife and cut it off.


    Wang Yue hid himself in his pocket and hung himself on the side of the horse, avoiding the knife cut by Xia Houdun.


    In a moment, the sword in his hand poked out directly.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the sword pierced into the neck of the horse at XiahouDun''s crotch. The speed of Wang Yue''s sword was very fast. He took it back in an instant, and Wang Yue immediately returned to his horse''s back.


    Old as he is, he is very flexible. He galloped his horse forward three steps, stopped, then quickly turned over, dismounted, and, with his Epee in his hand, went in the direction of Houghton behind him.


    The horse in XiahouDun''s crotch was injured in the neck and ran forward in a frenzy. XiahouDun, unable to ride, had jumped from the station. Seeing that Wang Yue gave up his horse to kill him with his sword, he said with a smile: "abandon your horse, stupid!"


    He swung his long sword and chopped it down.


    At this moment, Wang Yue met him directly with epee.


    "Dang!"


    Blade and blade collide together, the sound is very harsh.


    In particular, there was no horse in their crotch, and they all relied on their own strength. Wang Yue stood on the ground, holding the handle of Epee in both hands and never retreated. But XiahouDun''s eyes widened, but he stepped back, with a look of horror on his face.How is that possible?


    The strength of the old man is so powerful.


    There was no room for XiahouDun''s hesitation. When he stepped back, Wang Yue''s eyes were sharp and he came out again with his epee. In fact, Wang Yue killed Xia Houdun''s horse first in order to develop his strong points and avoid his weak points.


    In the war horse, his Epee can''t give full play to its power, and his swordsmanship may not be able to give full play to it. Wang Yue''s swordsmanship can be displayed incisively and vividly by abandoning his horses and fighting on the ground.


    He stepped up to harhoughton and cut off with his epee.


    If a sword falls, it''s like breaking a mountain and chopping a stone.


    The sword was sharp and sharp. As soon as Xia Houdun stabilized his figure, he raised his sword to block it.


    Dang!!


    Under the impact of the weapon and the powerful force of peiran, XiahouDun retreated again, holding the palm of the knife handle, numb and painful. Under the impact of this force, he almost couldn''t stop Wang Yue''s attack.


    Wang Yue got the upper hand and attacked quickly.


    Dang! Dang!!


    One sword was cut down after another, and each sword was so fast that there was almost no time for XiahouDun to change his moves, and he could only resist. In the twinkling of an eye, XiahouDun was in crisis.


    At this moment, the concentration of his energy and energy was unprecedented. Because if he is not careful, he will be killed. He really couldn''t understand how an old man could be so fierce. He was so fierce.


    "Dang!"


    Weapons strike again.


    After being injured, Xia Houdun was short of strength and could not hold the long sword any more. The sword in his hand was knocked out directly. Wang Yue, who had a sword against XiahouDun''s weapon, stepped on the chain, and in a twinkling of an eye, came to XiahouDun again.


    Sharp blade, cutting forward.


    XiahouDun could not avoid it. An iron bridge went down to avoid it. But when XiahouDun was avoiding, Wang Yue''s sword suddenly changed its move and cut it down.


    I''m sorry!


    The sharp edge of the sword, with the power of rapid hegemony, fell directly on the left arm of XiahouDun.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, splashing out.


    XiahouDun left arm, Qiqi was cut off.


    "Ah


    There was a look of pain on his face, and he began to howl. His body, straight to the ground. Under the severe pain, the strength of XiahouDun could not be lifted.


    Wang Yue kept on his hand. After he cut off Xia Houdun''s left arm, the Epee rose again and stabbed him hard.


    XiahouDun lay on the ground, burst out all strength, this just a roll to avoid. But when he rolled, and his left shoulder was on the ground, the agony of tearing his heart and lungs made him twitch with pain.


    Puchi!


    The point of the sword was on the ground, and it failed to hit XiahouDun.


    But Wang Yue kept on holding his sword and stabbing at XiahouDun. A good chance is just around the corner. I''m really sorry if I don''t kill Xia Houdun.


    At this moment, XiahouDun lay on the ground, convulsed all over.


    Just now his left shoulder was on the ground, and the pain of tearing his heart and splitting his lung was too much for him to bear. Seeing Wang Yue''s sword coming, Xia Houdun had no power to escape.


    Now XiahouDun had to close his eyes and wait to die!


    My life is over!


    There was endless despair in his heart.


    For a wave of recommendations, monthly tickets.

 Chapter 756

    At this time, suddenly, a burst of empty voice came from Wang Yue. Wang Yue noticed the voice behind him. Without any hesitation, he turned around and chopped off.


    Dang!!


    Epee impact, a shot of the shotgun, was knocked out.


    It''s a shotgun from pawey.


    Seeing that XiahouDun was in danger, he threw out his short gun to ease XiahouDun''s crisis.


    In this short time, Lu Bu also found that the situation was not good. He tried his best to beat Zhang Xiu back for a while, and drove his horse to kill Xia Houdun. In the face of Lu Bu, the more afraid Wang was, the more he dodged.


    As soon as Lubu bent over, he picked up XiahouDun, put him on the back of the red rabbit horse, and turned to retreat. With the retreat of Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others also withdrew one after another, no longer love war.


    Zhang Xiu did not pursue, with all the people back.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu looked up to the city, with a smile on her face, and said with a smile: "Cao Sikong, I didn''t expect that the short-term battle was so wonderful. In particular, Lu Bu''s love war made him lose one of his arms. "


    "If Lv Bu hears your order and withdraws immediately, I''m afraid there will be no XiahouDun with his arm cut off."


    "Oh, what a pity."


    Zhang Xiu said: "now XiahouDun has broken an arm. What do you say to deal with Lvbu?"


    Lu Bu, who was carrying XiahouDun to retreat, had a slight twitch in his cheek.


    He''s to blame, and he''s to blame.


    If he doesn''t love fighting and doesn''t fight with Zhang Xiu, it won''t be so. But in fact, if not for Xia Houdun, Lv Bu would have to fight Zhang Xiu. Even though he was injured, the skinny camel was bigger than the horse, and he was still reluctant to retreat.


    But XiahouDun was in danger, and his arm was broken. He could not see XiahouDun killed. He could only force Zhang Xiu back, and then quickly save Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao''s face was livid and angry.


    First there was Cao Hong''s death, and now there is XiahouDun who has broken his arm.


    His lineage suffered heavy losses. Repeated attacks made Cao Cao resentful. Under the depression, his brain is buzzing, and he feels headache.


    "Zhang Xiu, I will take revenge!"


    Cao Cao''s head hummed and his mind was a little confused. He gritted his teeth and answered.


    Lu Bu took XiahouDun to the castle, and immediately some soldiers came forward and carried XiahouDun to the hospital. Cao Cao also looked at the injured Lu Bu, did not pursue responsibility, concerned: "Fengxian, no harm?"


    "Nothing!"


    Lu Bu shook his head and answered.


    When he looked at Cao Cao, he felt strange. On the one hand, XiahouDun''s arm was cut off by Wang Yue, which had something to do with him. On the other hand, it was Zhang Xiu''s words that made Lv Bu a little wary of Cao Cao. He was worried about Cao Cao''s Thoughts on Diao Chan.


    Who is Cao Cao.


    He saw Lv Bu''s thoughts at a glance, but he didn''t explain anything. He just patted Lv Bu''s shoulder and asked Lv Bu to go for treatment. Then he looked at Zhang Xiu, biting her teeth, stifling her cheeks, enduring the pain brought by the buzzing of her head, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, I''m on the tower. I''d like to see how do you break the city?"


    "Siege?"


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing and said in a deep voice: "where can I be so stupid and attack the city directly. You, Cao Cao, have no less than 30000 troops in Xinye county. "


    "Especially when you arrive in Xinye first, you will prepare countless defensive equipment such as challenge wood and rolling stone. I''m afraid that the catapult is also well prepared. Even if I have a well appendix car, a car crash, a ladder, etc., I can''t make a strong attack."


    "If I don''t have five times your strength or ten times your strength, I''m going to attack Xinye. Isn''t that boring? That is to say, you Cao Cao have many stupid soldiers. With 60000 troops, you dare to attack my Yin county. "


    "You know, our county has more than 20000 troops. Even if you have more troops, you are only thirty or forty thousand more than me. You foolishly attacked Yin county and suffered heavy losses. I won''t follow your example. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "let the most precious forces under her command be wasted on the siege."


    Cao Cao''s face was extremely embarrassing.


    When Cao Cao saw Cao Hong''s body, he was depressed. Later, he saw that XiahouDun''s arm had been cut off, and his heart was extremely resentful and uncomfortable.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s criticism makes her even more angry.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, continued: "you stationed in Xinye, I Zhang Xiu, there is a lot of patience and you fight. Cao Cao, this war has just begun. Now it''s blocking your army. Jingzhou is carefree. What am I afraid of? Let''s take our time in this battle. You Cao Cao are stupid. I will not follow your example. "


    "Zhang Xiu, you, you..."


    Cao Cao had been humming in his mind, and he was already suffering from a splitting headache.


    Although he has a headache from time to time, it''s all a small matter, it doesn''t matter. But now by Zhang Xiu, by a series of means to stimulate Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao has a headache.


    Under the rule of anger, the chest fluctuates.


    The whole person is very depressed.All of a sudden, Cao Cao''s Qi and blood were surging up. He felt that his throat was sweet. He opened his mouth and uttered a lot of hard work. The red blood, spotted on the head of Xinye county.


    Cao Cao''s body is tottering.


    Cao ang quickly stepped forward and stepped behind Cao Cao. He helped Cao Cao and worried: "father!"


    "I''m fine!"


    Cao Cao vomited a mouthful of blood, but his heart was much more relaxed. The pain in his brain also eased a lot. He stared at Zhang Xiu outside the city and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you don''t attack the city, I''m waiting for you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m afraid you can''t wait."


    I''m afraid that Cao Cao''s eyes will squint next.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "my next attack is not Xinye County, but Yuyang county to the north of Xinye county. Cao Cao, I have already told you my goal. What are you going to do next? "


    "Withdraw


    After Zhang Xiu said that, he ordered to retreat.


    The army stopped staying, evacuated quickly, and went out of the city. But instead of going to Yuyang county now, Zhang Xiu camped ten miles south of Xinye county.


    This news was quickly fed back to Cao Cao. When Cao Cao got the news, he did not summon the people under his command to discuss the matter. Instead, he went to Lv Bu''s residence and asked about Lv Bu''s injury.


    He looked at Lv Bu and said in a deep voice: "Fengxian, when it comes to martial arts, you are not inferior to Zhang Xiu. Do you know why you are not only injured, but also defeated by Zhang Xiu? "


    Lu Bu was a little disappointed and asked, "why?"


    As Lu Bu, who is the best in the world, he is proud of himself. But in today''s battle with Zhang Xiu, he lost to Zhang Xiu, and he lost completely, which broke Lv Bu''s inner self-esteem completely.


    This made Lu Bu extremely painful.


    Cao Cao said: "the reason is very simple, you are not shameless enough."


    Lu Bu raised his head with an unexpected look in his eyes, but he was also puzzled.


    Cao Cao said: "when you fight with Zhang Xiu, it''s hard to win. You want to use words to motivate Zhang Xiu and make her angry and lose her sense of propriety. Who knows, but Zhang Xiu has grasped your weakness. "


    "He knows Diao Chan is your villain, so he makes up lies and slanders wantonly, which leads to your confusion and makes you lose your organization completely."


    "In fact, if Zhang Xiu slanders my official, you can think about it carefully. It''s totally impossible. Otherwise, how can I stand in the world and win the trust of my subordinates? "


    "You underestimated Zhang Xiu''s mouth."


    Cao Cao said: "Zhang Xiu''s mouth is extremely powerful. There are few in the world that can withstand it. If it comes to killing people, Zhang Xiu is definitely at the top of the list. When you compete with him, you will suffer in the end. "


    Lu Bu thought carefully, it seems that this is also the truth. How can Cao Cao, as a human being, be interested in Diao Chan? If so, Cao Cao''s foundation will not hold up.


    Lu Bu hugged his fist and said, "thank you for your comfort. Lu Bu understands."


    Cao Cao was relieved, comforted Lv Bu, encouraged Lv Bu to cheer up and prepare to fight Zhang Xiu again. Then he left Lv Bu''s room and went to XiahouDun''s residence.

 Chapter 757

    Cao Cao came to XiahouDun''s room and smelled a strong smell of blood. He frowned. His face, which was not handsome, was dignified.


    Now the left shoulder of harhoudun was bound up. After dressing, the wound still appears dark red. Visible bandage, still left a lot of blood.


    It was because there was so much blood that he was now pale and powerless. Although the pain on his left shoulder was still coming wave by wave, his heart was even more lost.


    He is a general in the army.


    He is one of the pillars of the Cao army.


    Unexpectedly, he was defeated by an old man and his arm was cut off. If it wasn''t for Dian Wei''s short gun throwing, which disrupted Wang Yue''s rhythm, and finally Lu Bu''s timely rescue, he would have died under the opponent''s sword.


    Cao Cao went to his bed and comforted him: "Yuan rang, once you lost an eye and became a blind summer Marquis, but you are still majestic. Now, though one arm has been broken, I believe you, Charlotte Houghton, are not the one to admit defeat. I believe you can cheer up again. "


    The summer Hou Dun ha ha laughs, the facial expression miserably way: "Si Kong, I am not particularly useless.". It''s just that Lv Bu is not as good as Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu''s strength is obvious to all. But I was defeated by an old man. Shame, shame


    "No, you''re not ashamed!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and answered firmly.


    Xia Houdun said: "Sikong doesn''t have to comfort me. There are countless pairs of eyes staring at the fighting outside the castle. Everyone has his own judgment and can judge the outcome. Sikong comforted me, but he didn''t have to pity me so much. "


    Cao Cao said, "I''m not pitying you."


    After a pause, Cao Cao said, "do you know who defeated you?"


    "Who is it?" said XiahouDun


    Cao Cao replied, "this man was Wang Yue, the former Emperor''s master. When I was an official in Luoyang, Wang Yue became the swordsmanship teacher of Liu Hong, the former Emperor, and taught the Emperor today."


    "Of course, Wang Yue, the emperor''s teacher, has moisture."


    "Rao is so. It can''t be denied that Wang Yue''s swordsmanship is invincible. Before that, when Zhang Xiu went to Xudu, I recognized Wang Yue at that time, but there was no intersection with Wang Yue, so I didn''t care about him. "


    "Wang Yue''s swordsmanship is extremely powerful."


    Cao Cao said, "it''s no shame that you are defeated by Wang Yue. In fact, you failed because you were careless. Did you notice that Wang Yue killed your horses at the beginning, and then you fought step by step. "


    "What Wang is good at is footwork."


    "Only in this way can his swordsmanship be fully developed."


    "When fighting on horseback, Wang Yue won''t have an advantage. If you have been fighting Wang Yue on horseback, the injured person is not you, but Wang Yue. It''s a pity that when you were fighting with Wang Yue, you didn''t understand each other''s situation. "


    Cao Cao earnestly advised: "Yuan rang, even if you lose one arm, can''t you lead the army with one arm? Can''t you fight with one arm? "


    "I think you can do it!"


    Cao Cao said, "you, XiahouDun, are a man of noble character. You are strong enough to cheer up and go to the battlefield again. When will the men of Cao''s and Xiahou''s families cry on their beds. A man would rather die on the battlefield than die in silence. "


    XiahouDun listened to Cao Cao''s words, and his expression gradually recovered in his dark eyes. In his eyes, there was more fighting spirit. He nodded solemnly and said, "Sikong, don''t worry. XiahouDun understands."


    "If only you knew!"


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Zi Lian has passed away. I hope you can cheer up. Because no matter I want to avenge Zilian, you also want to avenge Zilian. "


    "I understand!"


    XiahouDun nodded again.


    Cao Cao comforted Houdun again, then stood up and left. At this time, Cao Cao went back to the city tower, the hall where he lived, and arranged for people to call Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Xun you, Cheng Yu and others.


    Cao Cao''s eyes, looking at the people: "Zhang Xiu left before the words, you all hear. It is obviously impossible for us to draw on the strength of Xinye county and consume Zhang Xiu''s troops. Zhang Xiu is now stationed ten miles south of Xinye county. He said he would attack Yuyang county north of Xinye county. What do you think? "


    Everyone thought about it in their hearts.


    As a spokesman for Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang took the lead in saying: "Cao Sikong, I think that Zhang Xiu''s words are true or false, false or true. I''m not sure for the time being."


    "If we withdraw and leave Xinye county because of Zhang Xiu''s words, I''m afraid we will encounter Zhang Xiu immediately. You know, our military strength today is no match for Zhang Xiu. "


    "We have only about 40000 people today. But after Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong joined up, the number of troops has exceeded 50000. If the confrontation with Zhang Xiu is positive, it may not be Zhang Xiu''s opponent. ""So now, I think it''s appropriate to adopt the strategy of static braking."


    Zhuge Liang said: "we will continue to garrison Xinye county. If Zhang Xiu is stationed outside the city and doesn''t send troops, we don''t care. If Zhang Xiu really wants to go north to Yuyang County, we will attack Zhang Xiu again. But even if we attack, we can''t attack head-on. We have to talk about strategy. "


    Cao Cao nodded and said, "what Kong Ming said is reasonable. However, at present, what we should consider is not the issue of sending troops, but the current situation. Any possibility of Zhang Xiu must be considered clearly. In this way, whether Zhang Xiu sends troops or not, she can respond at any time. "


    Zhuge Liang nodded and said no more.


    The next war will surely be dominated by Cao Cao.


    Liu Bei''s army only plays a supporting role. If it is beneficial to Liu Bei, Liu Bei can participate. If it is unfavorable to Liu Bei, Liu Bei can completely refuse.


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "Lord, I think Zhang Xiu may send troops to the north. The reason why he wants to send troops is to lure us to fight so as to win us easily. "


    "If we stick to Xinye all the time, it''s no problem to keep Xinye city. The point is that even if Xinye has food and weapons, it is not a long-term solution. "


    "Because Zhang Xiu is stationed outside, we can cut off our grain supply. If you don''t fight, it''s not right. So my suggestion is that according to Zhang Xiu''s plan to send troops to the north, we will do everything we can. "


    Cool color flashed in Guo Jia''s eyes.


    In that pair of dark and shining eyes, there was a more intelligent look.


    Cao Cao asked, "how do you plan?"


    Guo Jiamo rubbed his beard under his jaw, thought a little, and then said: "it can be predicted that the first step we will take after Zhang Xiu''s troops are aimed at Zhang Xiu''s army. We do this..."


    Immediately, Guo Jia began to elaborate the detailed plan. A whole plan, involving a multi-step plan, step by step plan out, Guo Jia is still clear thinking.


    After Guo Jia finished, he made a pause, and then he concluded: "Zhang Xiu wants to go north. Let''s take advantage of the situation. According to the possibility, every possibility is calculated. In the end, we are so sure to win


    Cao Cao stroked his beard, looked at the people under his command and asked, "what do you think of the proposal of filial piety?"


    "I agree!"


    Xun you nodded in agreement.


    Guo Jia''s plan is quite complete, and Xun you agrees with it.


    Cheng Yu also said: "humble position also agrees."


    Everyone agreed, and even Zhuge Liang motioned Liu Bei to agree.


    When the plan was made, Cao Cao immediately gave orders to make arrangements for the next war.

 Chapter 758

    Zhang Xiu''s military camp is a big account of the Chinese army.


    After the soldiers set up camp, Zhang Xiu called Huang Zhong, Sima Yi, Zhang Ya, Zhao Yun, Sha Moke and others. Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Wang Yue below and praised: "Wang Yue cuts off Xia Houdun''s arm. He is old and strong, and good! This time, Cao Cao can be more heartache. Cao Hong died first, and now XiahouDun is one eyed and one armed. "


    Wang Yue said, "my Lord, I''m wrong!"


    After a pause, Wang Yue said: "compared with the Archduke''s enemy Lu Bu, he seriously injured Lu Bu. It''s not worth mentioning that he did a humble job. Especially Lu Bu''s shoulders are injured, and for a long time, I''m afraid that Lu Bu can''t move any more. "


    As soon as the words came out, everyone echoed them.


    Lu Bu''s bravery is known all over the world.


    This is a general in the world. Looking at Lv Bu is like looking at an insurmountable peak. But now, Zhang Xiu beat Lv Bu to retreat, and seriously injured Lv Bu.


    Such a result has inspired many people.


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "the courage of every man is nothing to be praised. That''s when it comes to fighting. It''s useful. If Cao Cao did not send Lv Bu to fight, it would not be so. "


    Sima Yi took the words and said, "my Lord, he said before that he would not attack Xinye, but would go north to attack Yuyang county. Before that, we didn''t have this plan. Did the Lord make a decision? "


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    A brilliant light flashed in his eyes, saying: "Xinye was once under our rule. The city was strong, especially Cao Cao had 30000 or 40000 elite soldiers. It is impossible to break the new field without more than 100000 troops. What''s more, Cao Cao is not a fool like Zhang Lu. So we must find another way to mobilize Cao Cao''s forces. "


    Sima Yi said: "my lord means that attacking Yuyang county is actually to mobilize Cao Cao''s forces. My Lord''s plan is to wait for the Cao army to leave Xinye County, and then we will attack the Cao army. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "yes, not all of them."


    "In the art of war, it''s hard to figure out whether it''s true or not, whether it''s real or not. If Cao Cao really wants to send troops to pursue us, I will ambush him naturally. "


    "If Cao Jun does not send troops, he will continue to defend Xinye county. We went north to Yuyang county and captured Yuyang. After all, Yuyang County used to be under our rule, and there was no Cao Jun in Yuyang county. "


    "It''s easy for the army to go north and seize Yuyang county."


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "the specific how, that is to see Cao Cao how to do, we make a response. Of course, we have to respond to every possibility. "


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong said, "the general thinks that Cao Cao is likely to pursue him. If Cao Cao does not pursue, he will be isolated in Xinye. So in this war, even if he is not willing to pursue, he must pursue. Cao Cao may choose to take advantage of the situation and make use of pursuit. When we fight Cao Cao, we''ll see who can calculate more accurately. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I have considered this matter."


    The Lord of the zodiac: "how to consider?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if Cao Cao wants to pursue us, then in the case of Cao Cao''s pursuit, the first thing he has to do is to guard against our ambush, so Cao Cao will certainly divide his troops to deal with our ambush. And then, we do it... "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the next response.


    He explained the plan a little bit clearly. After hearing this, people were confused and even confused. But I have to admit that the plan mentioned by Zhang Xiu is feasible.


    When Zhang Xiu finished the whole plan one by one, Zhang Xiu finally said, "it''s very important to be involved in the last war. I carefully observed the map between Xinye and Yuyang county and found the battle site. We are bound to win this war. "


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is perfect.


    For Zhang Xiu''s deduction, his heart is also very admire. If he were to deduce, he might not be able to do so.


    Only Zhang Xiu can do this.


    Huang Zhong, Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun and others also agreed.


    One by one, they were very excited.


    This is their chance.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and arrange it. The army will rest for three days. In the past three days, we have spent Cao Cao''s morale to see if he will attack us. Then we will send our troops north to Yuyang county. "


    "Here it is


    The crowd arched their hands and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu sits alone in the tent, deducing the current situation. At the same time, the situation in Hanoi County in the North was also considered. Yuan Shaofa attacked Hanoi county. Gan Ning and Jia Xu went north to resist. They didn''t know how the war was going.


    Today''s Hanoi County, Huai county.


    This is the capital of Hanoi County, and the army led by Ganning is stationed here.


    Seven miles outside huaixian, Yuan Shao''s army was stationed.


    On the tower, in Jia Xu''s room.Jia Xu leisurely reading, is very indifferent, no panic intention. Jia Xu doesn''t think he has any worries about the first battle of Hanoi county. What''s more, everything is in his plan.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the room.


    Jia Xu said, "come in!"


    Creak!


    The door was pushed open, but Gan Ning, dressed in armor, entered in a hurry. His face was full of anger and impatience, he said: "Jia Shangshu, yuan Shaona Guisun, led the army to fight again. Yuan Shao makes people curse outside the city, which is very annoying. You''ve been restraining me from sending troops for such a long time. Why haven''t you sent troops yet? "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile, "don''t worry!"


    Gan Ning said impatiently, "don''t worry. When can we send troops. Yuan Shao''s army outside the city was more than 50000. Our army is 30000. Even if the fierce tiger army faced 50000 yuan troops, it would be enough for the first World War. "


    Jia Xu looked up at Gan Ning and said, "if you want to fight, go. I won''t stop you. But afterwards, I will write a letter to inform the Lord of the battle in Hanoi


    "You..."


    Gan Ning was attacked speechless.


    How dare he send troops without authorization? It is obviously impossible. Gan Ning paced back and forth and said, "Mr. Jia, you give me a background. What should we do?"


    "Wait!"


    Jia Xu spoke.


    "What are you waiting for?" Ganning asked


    At this time, Gan Ning was very impatient. In principle, he is also one of the generals in the army and the commander of the fierce tiger army. But when Gan Ning faced Jia Xu, he was in awe.


    Not only because Jia Xu was the Minister of the Ministry of war, but also because when he faced Jia Xu, his deep and pitiful eyes swept over, Gan Ning was afraid and did not dare to argue with him.


    Jia Xu said: "wait for the news!"


    Gan Ning said, "what news are you waiting for?"


    Jia Xu said, "wait for the news from the Lord."


    Gan Ning is going crazy. He wants to rush up and give Jia Xu a few punches. He was short of breath, but he bit his teeth and asked, "what''s the news for your Lord?"


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, there was a voice of sentry outside the room.


    "Ha I won''t tease you. "


    Jia Xu chuckled, sat up straight and said, "general Gan, maybe the news we want has come."


    The sentry rushed in and handed the letter to Jia Xu.


    After taking the letter, Jia Xu quickly opened it, looked at it and said, "here''s our chance. In Nanyang County, news has been sent back. The Lord defeated the alliance of Cao Cao and Liu Bei in Yin county and killed more than 20000 people. Now Cao Cao and Liu Bei have retreated to Xinye county. The whole situation is completely clear. "


    Previously, Jia Xu had been arranging people to pay attention to the situation in Nanyang County. As soon as the war in Yin county was over, the sentry arranged by Jia Xu was eight hundred Li to rush back and send news to Jia Xu for the first time.

 Chapter 759

    When Ganning heard the news of Zhang Xiu''s victory in Nanyang County, he clenched his fist and waved it fiercely in the air. He had an excited look on his face and said: "I knew that the LORD would surely win. The Lord rose up in Nanyang and fought in battle. He won every battle. How could he be defeated


    After a pause, Gan Ning said: "is this news from Nanyang County the only way to fight with Yuan Shao? Don''t deceive me, Mr. Jia. I know you''re not like that. Although I want to go out of the city to fight, you can''t go out of the city. There must be other means


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "unexpectedly, general Gan is so smart."


    Gan Ning said, "how do I feel that you don''t mean to praise me, but you mean to tease me?"


    Jia Xu strode out and said, "you are not a woman. What am I going to do with you. Don''t worry, general Gan. You will be happy in this battle. "


    Gan Ning went out with him, but he didn''t say much.


    He believes in Jia Xu.


    This is a great master.


    Soon, Jia Xu and Gan Ning came to the tower. At the moment, yuan shaoce''s MAHLE army was stationed outside the city, and then arranged for soldiers to curse the war, intending to motivate Gan Ning to fight.


    Jia Xu ordered: "beat the drum!"


    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, the drums of war resounded through the city floor.


    The drum beat was rapid. In a moment, Yuan Jun''s soldiers outside the city were stunned, and then retreated one by one. I''m afraid the battle drums are going to send troops.


    When the war drum sounded, Hu Zhao also came in a hurry.


    Hu Zhao, as the prefect of Hanoi County, although he has to deal with government affairs, in order to guard Huai County, he has moved his office to the city floor to deal with the situation at any time.


    As soon as he heard the war drum, Hu Zhao came out in a hurry and said, "Jia Shangshu, what happened?"


    Jia Xu said: "the time is ripe, ready to fight with Yuan Shao."


    Hu Zhaomei''s head went up. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his head. He immediately said, "is it because Nanyang County has news that the Lord has won in Nanyang County?"


    Hu Zhao is clear about Jia Xu''s arrangement.


    Jia Xu nodded his head and said, "it''s true."


    "Good!"


    Hu Zhao couldn''t help cheering.


    The victory of Nanyang County means that most of the crisis faced by Zhang Xiu will be solved.


    Jia Xu stood on the tower. After a long time, he told the drum beating soldiers to stop. Then Jia Xu looked out of the city and said, "where is Yuan Shao, my official Jia Xu?"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao rode forward and hummed, "Jia Xu, I know you. Under Zhang Xiu''s command, what kind of minister of the military department are you in charge of Zhang Xiu''s army. Hum, Zhang Xiu is really a little demon in the temple. He is so conceited that he even made a minister of the Ministry of war. You are the Minister of the Ministry of war, but that''s all. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "what general Yuan said is that he was a little bit lenient. What the Lord does is his will. Is it difficult for the Lord to ask general yuan for instructions when he does something? "


    "What''s more, you say that the small demons in the Lord''s temple are very popular, but in this small temple, there are all those who are good at fighting. For example, Zhao Yun captured your son Yuan Tan alive and killed your general Chun Yu Qiong and others. "


    "Such as Huang Zhong and others, it''s easy to destroy Yan Liang and Wen Chou."


    "Eh, look at my official''s memory. Alas, when I am old, I forget that Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Yuan Tan and Chun Yuqiong are all dead. They all died in the hands of my Lord."


    Jia Xu''s tricky words, said: "such as general yuan''s temple, magnificent, talented people, there are Xu you such talent, directly to Cao Cao. There is also Tian Feng''s great talent. He abandoned the secret to the light and no longer worked for general yuan. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao''s mouth twitched.


    Damn Jia Xu!


    A mouth is so tricky, it''s like a poisonous tongue.


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "Jia Xu, you just show off. People like you should be killed. When Ben will break huaixian, he is bound to pull out your tongue first. Then, I''ll scratch your skin and cramp you. "


    Jia Xu said: "unfortunately, you don''t have such a chance."


    Yuan shaodao: "why?"


    Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "I have summed up the reasons for this, and there are roughly three points."


    Yuan Shao said: "hum, I''d like to listen to you, Jia Xu. What''s your opinion?"


    Jia Xu said: "first of all, the reason why you Yuan Shao dare to attack Hanoi county is because you are provoked and bewitched by Cao Cao. Thinking about you Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Liu Zhang of Yizhou, you are fighting with the Lord at the same time. You think the Lord can''t bear the attack."


    "So you take the army and take advantage of the fire to enter Hanoi county to seize the territory."


    "But the latest news came back that our Lord Zhang Xiu fought against Cao Cao and Liu Bei in Yin County, broke the Cao Liu alliance and killed more than 20000 of them."


    "Now Cao Cao and Liu Bei have retreated to Xinye County, and Taiwei has led his troops straight to Xinye.""You think about Cao Cao and Liu Bei to contain the Taiwei''s troops. But now, your plan has failed. "


    Jia Xu said, "it is expected that soon the Taiwei will pacify the army of Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Then he sent his troops to the north to fight with you again. From what I know about Taiwei, he certainly wants to fight you. "


    Yuan Shao''s face changed slightly.


    He did not expect that Cao Cao and Liu Bei were killed by Zhang Xiu in the first battle of Yin county.


    It''s incredible.


    Yuan Shao''s heart sank.


    Yuan Shao suddenly heard behind him a loud discussion. He looked back and saw that the soldiers under his command had been talking about it all the time. There was awe and worry on the faces of the soldiers.


    Because Yuan Shao''s soldiers had fought with Zhang Xiu, and had enough of Zhang Xiu''s sufferings. In the first battle of Hanoi County, Yuan Shaobing was defeated like a mountain. He was even beaten to Yecheng by Zhang Xiu, and nearly destroyed by Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao''s soldiers were afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    "No, it''s a trick!"


    Yuan Shao suddenly reacts that this is clearly Jia Xu''s intention to disturb his morale.


    Jia Xu had a bad intention.


    After Yuan Shao understood, he said coldly, "Jia Xu, by forging the news of Zhang Xiu''s victory, I can disturb my morale. Your means are not very good. "


    Jia Xu laughed, Yuan Shao is still so silly!


    In that case, it''s just a matter of fact.


    Jia Xu continued: "if our official falsifies the news of Taiwei''s victory, he is willing to bear the punishment of thunderbolt. In fact, if you send a little sentry, you will get the news. Now I''m forging news. When you find out the exact information and announce it, won''t it make my reputation plummet. Is it necessary for me to cheat you in such a thing? "


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again.


    The soldiers under his command are also one after another talking about Zhang Xiu''s victory.


    Yuan Shao''s sleeve flicked, and there was a voice on the ground: "even if Zhang Xiu wins in Yin county for the time being, what''s the matter? The victory or defeat of a war is not determined by a war. "


    "Now Cao Cao retreats to Xinye and continues to fight Zhang Xiu. The outcome is still unknown."


    "It''s too early for you to conclude that Zhang Xiu will win."


    "What''s more, even if Zhang Xiu takes the army north to Hanoi County, I, Yuan Shao, don''t worry about it? I, Yuan Shao, have always wanted revenge. If Zhang Xiu dares to go north to Hanoi County, I will kill Zhang Xiu and avenge my son. "


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth with a confident look.


    In front of the army, he has to show self-confidence, to make the soldiers stable.


    "Boast!"


    Jia Xu said, "I have a second point. Do you want to listen to it?"


    Yuan Shao snorted, raised his head and said again, "I''d like to hear what other means Jia Xu has."

 Chapter 760

    Gan Ning stood beside Jia Xu and watched him speak freely. He felt that he was worthy of the Lord''s respect. His tricky mouth, just like the Lord''s, was extremely venomous.


    Terrible!


    He didn''t want to face Jia Xu either.


    The gains and losses are our own.


    Gan Ning knew that Jia Xu would make a move. He was absolutely sure, otherwise he would not make a move.


    Hu Zhao had known Jia Xu''s ability for a long time, and now he saw it, and he was amazed. It''s really Jia Xu. This mouth is extremely sharp.


    Jia Xu put his hands on the wall, leaned forward slightly, and continued: "this second piece of news is about Gongsun Zan. I mentioned Gongsun Zan. You should be able to guess the news. "


    Yuan Shao frowned.


    That heart, more like sinking in a bottomless hole, constantly sinking, constantly falling.


    Jia Xu said: "when I went north to Hanoi County, I had arranged for people to go north to Youzhou. I told you that Yuan Shao sent troops to Hanoi county to fight with us again, and asked Gongsun Zan to send troops to Jizhou to plunder."


    "I didn''t promise Gongsun Zan anything. I just told him that Jizhou was empty and could send troops to plunder. A few days ago, I have been informed that Gongsun Zan has indeed sent troops to the south to plunder the northern part of Jizhou. "


    "A few years ago, Gongsun Zan was beaten too hard by you, Yuan Shao, with countless deaths and injuries. Now Gongsun Zan is up. He''s trying to get revenge on you. "


    Jia Xu continued: "although Gongsun Zan still didn''t dare to attack you head-on, Gongsun Zan is willing to step in when you attack Hanoi county. You know, he has two advantages in robbing Jizhou. "


    "On the one hand, it''s all about revenge; on the other hand, it''s about making friends with the Lord. If one day you attack Gongsun Zan again, Gongsun Zan can turn to the Lord for help. "


    "It''s silly of you to say so."


    "If I were you, I would never take the initiative to offend the stronger, but attack the weakest first. If I were you, I would definitely make friends with my Lord and have a good relationship with him. Then I would strive to defeat Gongsun Zan and dominate the north as soon as possible. "


    "It''s a pity that you think Guanzhong is a bully, and you think the Lord is a soft persimmon," Jia said. So much so that it''s a shame to make this look like it is now. "


    Gudong!


    Yuan Shao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his face was filled with regret.


    He had some regrets.


    Jia Xu''s words made him feel reasonable. If he did not attack Zhang Xiu, but made friends with Zhang Xiu, and then attacked Gongsun Zan, he would have pacified Gongsun Zan for a long time, and Gongsun Zan would not have stayed in Youzhou.


    This is what Yuan Shao regretted.


    "Be careful, Lord. This is Jia Xu''s way of speaking."


    In the rear of Yuan Shao, he rode up to remind him. But even so, it is also a sigh in my heart.


    This is the result of Yuan Shao''s insistence.


    When Yuan Shao received a letter from Cao Cao and decided to send troops after consulting with the public, Ju Shu once dissuaded him, believing that it was not worthwhile to attack Zhang Xiu now, instead, it would be better to attack Gongsun Zan with all his strength.


    However, Ju''s persuasion can''t stand Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu''s hatred of killing their son.


    Driven by hatred and unwilling to fail, Yuan Shao finally agreed to Cao Cao''s request. Yuan Shao believed that when he attacked Zhang Xiu at this time, he was sure to win.


    So Yuan Shao chose to send troops.


    But Yuan Shao didn''t expect that this would happen in the end.


    After hearing Ju''s words, Yuan Shao perked up and gritted his teeth: "Jia Xu, even if Gongsun Zan went south to plunder Jizhou, so what? My official is to the north of Jizhou, and we have arranged for troops to be stationed. "


    Jia Xu said: "can the garrison of your army resist Gongsun Zan''s pouring out? You know the combat effectiveness of Gongsun Zan''s troops and horses. If you can resist Gongsun Zan''s army with the only troops you have arranged in the north of Jizhou, Gongsun Zan will be a white horse. "


    Yuan Shao clenched his fist, and his heart was extremely unwilling.


    At the moment, Yuan Shao''s soldiers are talking about it. One by one they whispered, and their hearts began to panic. Listen to Jia Xu, the situation is very unfavorable for them.


    Even if there is a senior general in the army who orders the soldiers not to talk, and even says that this is Jia Xu''s threat and Jia Xu''s intention, it can''t stop the soldiers from talking.


    What''s the matter and whether they can resist it or not? The soldiers in the army also have a steelyard in their heart, which can measure it.


    With a smile in his mouth, Jia Xu continued: "Yuan Shao, I just said two things. Now, there is a third point. Now, you have to listen to the third point. I''m afraid that if you listen to the third point, you won''t be able to stand vomiting blood. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu said: "after all, Yuan Shao''s psychological endurance is always very low, and he can''t bear any blow. I remember in the past, the Lord once said that he led his troops to fight with you in Hanoi County, and you vomited blood. If you spit blood now, you''ll lose face again. "


    Yuan Shaoqi heart ups and downs, angry way: "mystify, I would like to hear, what is your third point?"He has heard two points, but he wants to see what other means Jia Xu has.


    If you don''t listen, you will not be reconciled.


    Jia Xu continued: "since general yuan has said that, how can I not satisfy you? This time you, Yuan Shao, entered from the northernmost side of Hanoi County, and then went all the way south to Huai County, where none of the counties could resist, and any magistrate surrendered directly. "


    "You think it''s going well, right?"


    "Do you know that the magistrates of these counties are not greedy for life and afraid of death. Originally, these county magistrates were prepared to resist and weaken Yuan Shao''s forces. "


    "In the end, I gave them an order to let them all go, to surrender for the time being, and let you go south. In this way, you can drive straight into huaixian county


    Jia Xu said: "according to the previous, your food supply should have arrived two days ago. But now, it hasn''t arrived. Don''t you worry, Yuan Shao? "


    "Unfortunately, I got the news that your grain was robbed by the county magistrate of each county after it entered Hanoi county. Now, your food is gone. "


    "Even if Yuan Shao still has some grain in his army. But in a short time, because there are checkpoints all over the north of Hanoi County, your food can''t be transported in. "


    "Now, your back road is cut off and there is no food supply," Jia said


    "You are so poisonous and cruel!"


    Hearing Jia Xu''s words, Yuan Shao''s eyes widened and his face was shocked.


    Jia Xu is too cruel.


    The first move not only incited Gongsun Zan, but also early calculated him, which made his grain supply problems. When the army went south at the beginning, Yuan Shao did not pay attention to the county magistrate of each county. The reason is very simple. In front of his army, it is normal for each county to be weak and unable to resist. Surrender is normal.


    But unexpectedly, Jia Xu is hiding the opportunity to kill.


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "Yuan Shao, you say I''m poisonous and spicy. Thank you for your praise. Don''t worry, I''ll give you a ride. Now that you''ve finished, I''ll attack even if you don''t fight. "


    "You, you..."


    Yuan Shao raised his finger to Jia Xu''s direction. His chest kept rising and falling, and his heart was even more depressed.


    Suddenly, Yuan Shao had a sweet throat.


    "Poof!"


    As soon as Yuan Shao opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood. The breath of his whole person was even more withered. Jia Xu was so angry that he vomited blood. Yuan Shao''s heart was extremely uncomfortable.


    "Creak!"


    The gate of Huai County suddenly opened.


    Gan Ning had already taken the lead, carrying a long knife, and ordered: "kill!"


    Previously, Jia Xu had instructed Gan Ning to go down to the city tower. After Yuan Shao vomited blood, Gan Ning ordered people to open the gate and take the soldiers out quickly.

 Chapter 761

    After Yuan Shao vomited blood, his breath was even more withered. When he saw the moment when Gan Ning killed him, he drove his horse back a little, and then ordered: "kill me, break huaixian, today!"


    At this time, Yuan Shao was extremely angry.


    Shame!


    He was humiliated!


    Jia Xu humiliated him so much that he would not give up his hatred.


    Despite the unfavorable situation, Yuan Shao now has a strong army and stronger strength, and he dares to fight. With the implementation of Yuan Shao''s order, the army under his command quickly stepped forward.


    There were about 20000 elite soldiers killed in the battlefield this time, who were dispatched by the army. He first arranged for 20000 soldiers to come forward and fight for a while, then frowned.


    Although the soldiers under his command were killed, they were afraid of each other. Especially in Jia Xu''s continuous words, the morale of the soldiers has fallen to the bottom, and the combat effectiveness has declined.


    Under such a premise, twenty thousand elite soldiers could not resist the thirty thousand troops in Ganning.


    What''s more, there are cavalry under Ganning.


    With the combination of infantry and cavalry, 30000 elite soldiers charged forward, one by one, like a tiger into a sheep. For a period of time before that, Jia Xu had been pressing the soldiers to prevent the fierce tiger army from attacking.


    For the soldiers of the fierce tiger army who have strong fighting capacity, they are simply holding their breath. Now, all of them are fighting. They want to kill Yuan Shao in front of him.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    Today is the day to capture Yuan Shao alive


    Gan Ning spurs his horse, and the blade in his hand keeps swinging and chopping.


    The light of the sword is everywhere, bringing out a flood of blood. One by one, the soldiers under yuan''s army were constantly killed, causing countless casualties. Under the leadership of Gan Ning, the fierce tiger army directly penetrated the army line of Yuan''s soldiers, killing 20000 yuan''s troops in rout.


    When he saw this scene, he sighed in his heart.


    The total number of their troops is indeed dominant, but the combat effectiveness of their soldiers is now extremely weakened, and they can''t stand the fierce attack of Ganning.


    Ju Shi rushed to Yuan Shao and reported: "Lord, the situation is not good. Let''s retreat."


    "No, never retreat!"


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and refused: "Ju, you''ll give orders to go on, and the army will go all out to attack. Today, we will never stop cutting Gan Ning, breaking Huai county and killing Jia Xu. "


    "Lord!"


    Jushou said quickly.


    Yuan Shao big sleeve a brush, categorically way: "Jushou, no need to persuade, ordered."


    "Here it is


    He had no choice but to give an order.


    Immediately, he quickly gave the order to attack. In the rear, 7500 cavalry quickly bypassed the front battlefield and went directly to the left wing of Ganning. At the same time, another 7500 cavalry quickly bypassed the front and killed him on the right side of Ganning.


    This is to attack the left and right wings of Ganning.


    This is the situation in his eyes.


    He looked calm and roared: "change the formation, order the cavalry of the fierce tiger army to meet the cavalry of the left and right wings."


    The herald waved the flag quickly.


    With the waving of the flag, the order was quickly conveyed. Under Ganning''s command, five thousand cavalry went straight to the left and five thousand to the right.


    This is the cavalry of the fierce tigers of Ganning.


    As the cavalry came out, they resisted the cavalry on the left and right wings. Even when the two armies fought, the cavalry of the fierce tiger army rushed to break the other side''s cavalry formation quickly and kept killing back and forth, causing chaos in the cavalry camp under Yuan Shao''s command.


    Now, Gan Ning doesn''t care about the situation of the two wings. He just leads the 20000 infantry under his command and keeps on rushing forward to defeat the yuan soldiers in front of him.


    This is Ganning''s intention.


    He killed all the way to break the defense of Yuan Shao''s army.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    One after another, there are many shouts.


    Ganning''s fierce tiger army, either formed in three or three formations, or formed into a team of five, kept cutting forward. Such a three talent formation, or a five person formation, enables soldiers to protect themselves and constantly fight forward.


    No one can stop them.


    Gan Ning''s team is getting closer and closer to the Chinese army in front of Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao sat on horseback, watching the fighting, and saw his infantry and cavalry were in trouble. His face was very angry. Like a gambler, he said, "kill, send all the soldiers to me."


    Jushou frowned and said, "Lord, you must not be so desperate!"


    Yuan Shao said: "no matter, kill!"


    When he heard the speech, he sighed in his heart and had to give an order again. There were only fifteen thousand infantry left, and they went back to the battlefield. At this time, only a small number of relatives and followers were left to follow Yuan Shao. This was to protect Yuan Shao''s safety.All troops, all on the battlefield.


    Even if the last 15000 soldiers were put into the battlefield, even if the situation was temporarily stabilized, after continuous fighting, the stable situation began to change again, unable to hold on, and began to rout again.


    Gan Ning''s army of more than 20000, like a sharp cone, constantly poked into Yuan Shao''s army, constantly rolling forward.


    One by one, the soldiers were killed.


    The fighting will of all soldiers is growing stronger and stronger. The desire to fight is even stronger. Soldiers in the battlefield, whistling to fight, while they fight, but also while recording their achievements.


    At the end of every war, the meritorious people will be rewarded.


    The rout of Yuan''s army was irresistible. One by one, Yuan''s soldiers kept retreating.


    "Go away!"


    "I can''t stop it. I can''t stop the attack."


    Among yuan''s soldiers, a soldier suddenly cried out.


    One after another, the soldiers roared. After such a shout came out, more soldiers panicked and kept retreating. As a result, more and more people are retreating in the whole battlefield, which can not be stopped.


    Yuan Shao''s face was blue when he saw this scene.


    The mood, which had been calmed down, fluctuated again with a look of panic.


    Lost!


    He lost again!


    He led 50000 troops to kill, but under Jia Xu''s continuous cutting belt, his soldiers were defeated. Yuan Shao clenched his fists. He wanted to order another fight and order his soldiers to fight to the end.


    In the present scene, he knew that he could not stop the soldiers from collapsing.


    I sigh in my heart.


    Yuan Shao didn''t listen to advice, so much so. If Yuan Shao had followed his advice early in the morning and concentrated on attacking Gongsun Zan instead of sending troops to provoke Zhang Xiu, he would not have suffered today''s losses.


    Even if Jizhou has a solid foundation, it will not be able to sustain continuous losses.


    Yuan Shao is like a black sheep.


    Professor Ju took a deep breath and advised: "Lord, withdraw, withdraw immediately. Our army has begun to rout. If we do not retreat now, we will be surrounded by Ganning''s army. The situation will be even more difficult then. "


    "The counties to the north of Huai County, in particular, surrendered intentionally."


    "It''s even more dangerous."


    "Even though the strength of the counties is weak, once our strength is extremely weak, I''m afraid the combination of the strength of the counties will be enough to stop us."


    "Once it is impossible to withdraw Jizhou, it will be quite dangerous," he said


    Yuan Shao was not willing to go back to Jizhou, but when he heard Ju''s words, he suddenly shivered. If he couldn''t go back to Jizhou, he was miserable. His foundation will collapse completely, which he does not want to see.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Yuan Shao gave a loud order and never insisted.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds on the battlefield.


    Yuan Shao, with Ju Shi, Feng Ji and others, quickly retreated to the north of Huai county. When Yuan Shao''s army heard the order to retreat, it did not delay any more, but quickly withdrew.


    On the whole battlefield, Yuan''s army was defeated like a mountain.

 Chapter 762

    "Ha ha ha, Yuan Jun is a loser. Kill him for me. Children, the opportunity is right in front of us. Let me kill you


    Ganning laughed and ordered the pursuit.


    The soldiers of the fierce tiger army, whether they are infantry or cavalry, are all in quick pursuit. Outside the north city of Huai County, there are fierce tiger soldiers everywhere, and there are sprint troops everywhere.


    In this battle, we won the whole battle.


    Hu Zhao stood on the tower, looking at the victory scene, his heart was very happy.


    Win!


    This is a victory!


    Hu Zhao''s eyes fell on Jia Xu and said in a deep voice, "Jia Shangshu, I have a question."


    Jia Xu said with a light smile: "Hu Taishou, but it''s OK to say so."


    Hu Zhao said: "now in this war, since Jia Shangshu has calculated Yuan Shao clearly, he is sure that Yuan Shao will be defeated. Why not send some soldiers to ambush on the way of Yuan Shao''s retreat. How about stopping Yuan Shao and leaving him completely


    Jia Xu laughed and sighed: "it''s not that we don''t do it, it''s that we don''t have enough troops."


    "Our present strength, that is, the fierce tiger army under the command of Ganning, is only 20000 or 30000 troops. If there were more troops, they would have to arrange ahead of time to block Yuan Shao''s retreat and completely keep Yuan Shao in Hanoi county. "


    "But now we don''t have enough troops."


    "Once part of the fierce tiger army is transferred to leave, the strength of the county will be insufficient and it will be useless to defeat Yuan Shao''s army."


    Jia Xushen said in a deep voice: "so I would rather shrink all my troops and then defeat Yuan Shao in huaixian. As long as we win this war, it is enough. "


    After hearing this, Hu Zhao said with admiration, "what Jia Shangshu has said is very true. It''s admirable that Jia Shangshu expected the enemy to win."


    Jia Xu said: "Mr. Hu, I admire what you have done in Hanoi. The Lord often mentioned Hu Taishou, saying that Hu Taishou was a scholar in Hanoi County, which was the first of his generation. Only in this way can the whole Guanzhong area and even the territory under the command of the LORD be able to learn from others. "


    Hu Zhao said: "all this is the Lord''s plan, not worth mentioning. Hu Zhao, at best, is to be a person who will fight for the Lord. "


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "Hu Taishou is modest."


    Two people chatting, seems very relaxed.


    This battle, it''s done!


    The whole Hanoi county is now in danger.


    Little by little, three hours later, Gan Ning led the army back. When Gan Ning returned to the castle, he came to Jia Xu and said, "Jia Shangshu, it''s a pity that he lost Yuan Shao. He ran faster than a rabbit and couldn''t catch up. But in this battle, we won it all. "


    Jia Xu said, "have you counted the results?"


    Gan Ning nodded his head and said, "it''s just because we have counted the results that we have been delayed for such a long time. In this war, we captured more than 16000 soldiers and killed more than 23000 people. The rest of Yuan''s soldiers either fled or retreated with Yuan Shao. In this war, we have won a great victory. Nearly all the yuan soldiers who came here were destroyed. "


    "Good!"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and began to laugh.


    Gan Ning said: "the arrangement of Jia Shangshu is that I go to reorganize the soldiers now, and then I''m going to arrange the reward. In this war, our soldiers died less than 2000 people. With less than 2000 casualties, it''s amazing to win such a huge victory. "


    Jia Xu chuckled.


    This battle is indeed a complete victory.


    He also immediately returned to his study and began to write the war report of huaixian. From the beginning of the war with Yuan Shao layout, to the final defeat of Yuan Shao, as well as their own losses, all aspects of Jia Xu are clear.


    All the news was written on the letter. Jia Xu immediately called to the royal guards and asked the guards to send the letter to Nanyang County as quickly as possible.


    This letter, from huaixian south, into Hongnong County, straight to Nanyang County.


    When the letter was sent to Zhang Xiu''s hand, Zhang Xiu had not sent troops to leave Xinye. Zhang Xiu was overjoyed to see what Jia Xu recorded in the letter.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu sent people to call Sima Yi, Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun, Sha Moke and others. In front of the crowd, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "just now, I got the latest news from Hanoi county."


    "In Hanoi Prefecture, the army led by Ganning defeated Yuan Shao''s army."


    "Jia Xu adopted the strategy of luring the enemy in depth. After Yuan Shao arrived in Huai County, he defeated Yuan Shao''s 50000 troops with 30000 troops, captured more than 10000 people and beheaded more than 20000 people."


    "The situation in Hanoi county is settled!"


    Zhang Xiu was also relieved and said: "now the situation in the north is settled, and the next thing is the war here. When Liu Cao defeated us, we won the battle


    Sima Yi said with a smile: "tomorrow is the time to send troops. The battle in Hanoi county has been settled. Next, it''s time to defeat Cao Cao and Liu Bei. "


    Zhao Yun clenched his fist and said: "this battle, we will win!"Shamoko said, "kill him."


    For shamoko, he was a madman on the battlefield, and he was extremely bloodthirsty. He thought about it and said, "I fought with Cao Cao a few days ago. The green hat man is very powerful. Next time I meet him, I will kill him."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the green hat man''s name is Guan Yu. Well, you can continue to call him green hat man. This man is not Cao Cao''s, but Liu Bei''s second younger brother. He has good martial arts. "


    Shamoko said: "Lord, the last time I fought with Guan Yu, there were only a hundred moves left. At that time, the end will clearly feel that Guan Yu''s strength began to weaken. If there are more than 100 moves, I will be able to kill Guan Yu. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "look forward to the next time, you can kill Guan Yu."


    In fact, Zhang Xiu despises people like Guan Yu. Because Guan Yu is headstrong, arrogant and despises scholars. He doesn''t like such a person. After all, it''s not as easy to use as Zhang Fei.


    It''s a pity that Zhang Fei is too strong to commit suicide in Yin county.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "tomorrow is the time to send troops. Are you all ready for each other? "


    "It''s ready."


    All of them answered with high morale.


    Zhang xiudao said, "let''s all go down!"


    "Here it is


    Everyone stepped down.


    One heart, heart is high. If the situation in Hanoi in the north is not settled, maybe they will worry about the situation in Hanoi.


    But now, even the threat of Yuan Shao in Hanoi county has been solved. What they have to do now is to solve Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Especially when Yuan Shao was solved, there was more contrast, so they were looking forward to solving Liu Bei and Cao Cao.


    Time passed and the next morning.


    Zhang Xiu mobilized her army and set out directly.


    The army left Xinye and went straight north.


    This news, in the shortest time, spread to Xinye City upstairs, spread to Cao Cao''s desk.


    After checking the news, Cao Cao immediately called Guo Jia and Xun you together and said, "Zhang Xiu has been delayed for three days. I thought that he might not go north any more. Today, Zhang Xiu finally sent troops. Now Zhang Xiu is going north to Yuyang county. According to the plan, next, we have to take action. "


    Xun you said, "my Lord is wise. We are sure to win this battle."


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "victory or defeat depends on this."


    The rest of the crowd began to speak.


    One by one, his face was full of expectation but uneasiness and even excitement.


    This war is not only related to the outcome of this war, but also related to the overall situation of Cao Cao. If Zhang Xiu''s army can be defeated this time, it will be easy for Cao Cao to capture Nanyang County and even Jingzhou, and even enter Zhang Xiu''s hinterland.

 Chapter 763

    Cangshanling is located between Xinye and Yuyang county.


    The mountains are rolling, and the road leading to Yuyang county is at the foot of Cangshan Mountain. We have to go around the foot of Cangshan Mountain for half a circle, then we can go all the way north to Yuyang county.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu is on its way.


    Its army is approaching Cangshan Mountain. When the army led by Zhang Xiu was approaching, a sentinel quickly ran back to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Taiwei, everything is normal in front of Cangshan Mountain. There is no sign of ambush for the time being. No matter what happened in the mountains or above the mountains, there was no movement. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang xiudao: "continue to explore again!"


    The sentry turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Sima Yi and said with a smile, "Zhongda, do you think there will be Cao Cao''s troops in Cangshan Mountain?"


    "There must be!"


    Sima Yi answered firmly.


    Sima Yi looked at Cangshan Mountain in the distance and said, "my Lord, I told Cao Cao to send troops to the north. If Cao Cao doesn''t plan, he is not Cao Cao. Therefore, Cao Cao must have laid an ambush in Cangshan Mountain. However, Cao Cao''s ambush was relatively hidden, and the sentinel did not detect it for the time being. "


    "He who knows me is Zhong Da!"


    Zhang Xiu stares at Cangshan Mountain, which is full of trees. A light flashed in her eyes and says: "this battle of Cangshan Mountain is the decisive battle with Cao Cao. I''m afraid there will be war when we enter Cangshan Mountain range. "


    In fact, Wang can looked at the map and found that the battle site he chose was cangshanling.


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue on one side immediately arranged it.


    The army stopped to rest and all the soldiers took time to rest. More soldiers have begun to eat dry food to supplement their physical strength. All the soldiers in the army were told that there would be fighting in cangshanling next.


    They all know how to do it, so there are those who nibble on dry food, and those who wipe their swords, all of them are energetic and ready for the war.


    Time goes by little.


    Two quarters of an hour is fleeting.


    The soldiers in the army slightly recovered their strength, and Zhang Xiu gave an order, and the army continued on its way. At this moment, both Zhang Xiu and the other generals in the army gathered up their spirits and moved forward carefully.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu was approaching Cangshan Mountain, it was deep in Cangshan Mountain.


    This place is open and open.


    It is rare to find such a place in a mountain like cangshanling. It was in such a place that Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s troops could ambush here.


    The leader is not others, but Xia Houyuan.


    As Cao Cao''s most trusted general, Xia Houyuan is not only outstanding in martial arts, but also a wise general.


    "Rustle!"


    There was a sound of footwork in the forest.


    A sentry came to XiaHouYuan in a hurry and reported: "general Xiahou, just got the news, the army led by Zhang Xiu is close to cangshanling and is about to enter the foot of cangshanling."


    "Good!"


    Hou Jingguang finally flashed in his eyes


    As soon as he waved, the sentry stepped down.


    Xia Houyuan turned his eyes, looked at Guan Yu and Lv Bu, and said in a deep voice, "Marquis Wen and general Guan, this ambush is very important. You two, go to the location of the ambush according to the area previously designated. Once Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, it ambushed Zhang Xiu''s army. This battle is the clarion call to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Yu and Lu Buqi should go down.


    For Guan Yu, he would like to kill Zhang Xiu, so as to avenge Zhang Fei.


    For Lu Bu, his recuperation in recent days has almost recovered, which is enough for the first World War. He had been defeated by Zhang Xiu because of Zhang Xiu''s deception. In this war, he wanted to be ashamed before snow.


    They left in a hurry. Xia Houyuan no longer stayed in the mountain. He followed Lv Bu and Guan Yu with his soldiers and went to the foot of the mountain.


    The party came to the foot of the mountain and laid an ambush in their respective positions.


    Time goes by little.


    Zhang Xiu is closer and closer to the ambush point. Around Shenshi in the afternoon, dense footsteps came from the official road at the foot of the mountain. Although the footsteps were messy, they were closer and closer to the ambush site.


    This ambush of XiaHouYuan can be divided into four stages.


    The first ambush is to attack the head of Zhang Xiu''s army; the second is Guan Yu, who attacks the front position of the whole team; the third is Lv Bu''s ambush, who attacks the middle position of Zhang Xiu''s team, intending to completely cut off Zhang Xiu''s team.


    Finally, the army led by Xia Houyuan wanted to attack the rear part of Zhang Xiu.


    This is Xia Houyuan''s plan.


    The front troops under Zhang Xiu were led by shamoko. After entering the mountains, the team moved on quickly. It was not long before we met the spot where the archers ambushed."Shoot the arrow!"


    Cao ang, the leader, gave a loud order.


    He asked him to carry out the task with Xia Houyuan. Xia Houyuan was worried about Cao Ang''s safety, so he arranged for Cao ang to carry out the task in the first place early to ensure Cao Ang''s safety.


    "Whew! Whew


    A bow and arrow, from the position of the hillside of Cangshan Mountain, fell quickly.


    Thousands of bows and arrows, straight at shamoko.


    After shamoko found out, he roared, "be on guard, all of you


    In the twinkling of an eye, a dense bow and arrow fell, and shamoko waved the iron tribulus in his hand, swinging all the bow and arrow. The soldiers under his command also waved their swords quickly.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    The blade struck the shaft and kept swinging away the bow and arrow. Rao is so. Many soldiers died or were injured by the dense bows and arrows.


    "Woo! Woo


    Just then, the horn sounded.


    But Cao ang let the soldiers blow the horn, accompanied by the sound of the horn, the news of the attack, quickly spread back.


    At the location where Guan Yu was lying in ambush, he carried the green dragon Yanyue sword and ordered: "kill!"


    There are more than 4000 elite soldiers under Guan Yu''s command.


    One by one of his soldiers, high spirited, quickly with Guan Yu from the mountains into the waist into Zhang Xiu''s team. When the soldiers resisted Guan Yu, not far from the rear, Lu Bu, holding Fang Tianhua halberd, led another 4000 soldiers out.


    The front, middle and back three armies quickly intervened in the battlefield and cut off Zhang Xiu''s team.


    "Kill, kill!"


    Guan Yu, holding the green dragon Yanyue sword, roars to kill.


    When he thought of the dead Zhang Fei and his elder brother Liu Bei''s miserable mood, his anger rose endlessly. In particular, Guan Yu, who is also one of the most powerful generals in the world, once played against Lu Bu.


    In the end, he was blocked by a barbarian.


    Guan Yu''s heart is full of discontent.


    He led the soldiers to charge continuously, but at the beginning, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were caught unprepared, but as time went on, these soldiers quickly organized resistance and stabilized the chaotic situation.


    The news of Guan Yu''s killing spread quickly to shamoko. As soon as he heard Guan Yu''s appearance, his eyes lit up and he roared and ordered to retreat.


    He didn''t care about the soldiers who shot in the dark, because the other side was in the mountains. Moreover, Zhang Xiu had already ordered that there was no need to entangle the ambush here, because it was only part of Cao Cao''s ambush.


    So shamocco quickly stepped back.


    Soon, shamoko was not far from Guan Yu. Because the mountain road is not easy to walk, shamoko did not ride a horse. He saw Guan Yu in green hat and roared: "green hat man, shamoko is here, take his life!"


    The iron Tribulus terrestris is already murderous.


    Guan Yu''s face puffed when he heard the cry of shamoko. That red cheek, immediately there is endless anger rise, green dragon Yan Moon knife turn, directly to the position of shamoko.

 Chapter 764

    In a twinkling of an eye, the two men who were walking opposite each other had already met each other and swung their weapons to attack each other.


    "Dang!"


    The weapons hit each other hard.


    The next moment, shamoko roared, the iron tribulus in his hand swung up and smashed down again.


    "Green hat man, you are much weaker without horses."


    "Take me!"


    "Dang!"


    "Pick me up again!"


    "Dang!"


    "Pick me up again!"


    "Dang!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the sound of crashing and ringing.


    Like an indefatigable machine, shamoko quickly swung his weapon down. He was born with divine power, ferocious strength, and persistent tenacity.


    In contrast to Guan Yu, at the beginning, although the green dragon Yanyue sword was just fierce, there was no casting. But with the passage of time, the power of the green dragon Yanyue sword in his hand began to weaken. After all, he was lack of war horses, so he could not break out with the help of war horses.


    He was beaten by Guan Moyu.


    The whole person''s jujube red cheek is even more red, the face is full of anger and unwilling expression, he is actually not equal to the barbarian generation.


    How can this work?


    Guan Yu clenched his teeth, regardless of the scattered long beard under his jaw, swung the green dragon Yanyue sword and waved it again.


    He intended to fight back.


    But the green dragon Yanyue sword arrives in front of shamoke, but it is easily blocked by shamoke''s Tribulus terrestris. Even shamoko''s Tribulus terrestris kept falling. Under the impact of the great power, Guan Yu retreated uncontrollably.


    This is a helpless move.


    He didn''t want to retreat, but he couldn''t control it.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    One after another, the sound of crashing kept ringing.


    Guan Yu''s hands holding Qinglong Yanyue knife hurt faintly. The palms of my main hilt are numb. Although not to the point of Hukou crack, it is not far away.


    Shamoko was very excited about the rise of the war.


    He was agitated.


    Cheerfulness!


    That is to say, we need such an opponent who is not as good as him, but in fact, can resist his all-out attack.


    "Kill


    "Green hat man, pick me up again."


    Shamoko shouts at the same time. The vulgar tone, as well as the unbridled humiliation, make Guan Yu''s heart angry. But Guan Yu, even though he fought back, could not defeat the attack of shamoko.


    The more they fight, the faster they get.


    The soldiers under their respective command are also constantly fighting.


    By this time, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had begun to stabilize the chaotic situation and counter attack Guan Yu''s soldiers. Under the strong counterattack, on the contrary, the soldiers under Guan Yu showed fatigue and began to lose.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    At the front, Cao Ang''s archers came out. These soldiers no longer held bows and arrows, but all entered the battlefield with swords. In Xia Houyuan''s original plan, Cao ang didn''t need to go to war, he just needed to hide in the forest with his soldiers.


    But Cao ang found that Guan Yu''s situation was not good, and ordered the soldiers to attack.


    The soldiers around shamoko attack with all their strength. Even if Cao Ang''s soldiers join in, shamoko is still not afraid.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, a quarter of an hour passed.


    "General, retreat, retreat!"


    A soldier quickly came to shamoko''s side and exclaimed: "Lu Bu in the rear killed wantonly. The soldiers can''t hold on. Withdraw. We withdraw at once. "


    Shamoko knew that was what he meant.


    Ben was going to arrange the evacuation.


    Hearing the cry of the soldiers, shamoko swung the iron thistle in his hand, smashed it out and beat Guan Yu back.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    After shamoko gave the order to retreat, his soldiers got together in twos and threes and began to retreat orderly. They fight and retreat, no longer fighting in front.


    In fact, today''s Guan Yu has shown fatigue and is about to fail. After shamoko retreated, Guan Yu suddenly got a boost and called on his soldiers to attack.


    The battlefield began to move back slowly.


    Xia Houyuan''s intention is to hope that Guan Yu and Lv Bu will send troops at the same time to cut Zhang Xiu''s team into several pieces, and then break them down one by one. It''s best to destroy Zhang Xiu''s army here.


    Now, with shamoko leading the soldiers to retreat, the soldiers everywhere are gathered together.


    Xia Houyuan''s intention was completely broken.


    "Kill


    Shamoko retreated with his soldiers, and soon, he retreated to Lubu''s position.


    Lu Bu''s Halberd is sharp.


    No one can stop him where he has been. Even though Huang Zhong did it himself, Huang Zhong was still defeated in front of Lv Bu. He was beaten by Lv Bu and even nearly injured.


    After the confluence of shamoko and Huang Zhong, the soldiers resisted the enemy''s attack.Shamoko looked at Lv Bu, leaping to try, and roared: "General Huang, Lv Bu has been injured, even if he recovers in a short time. But it''s impossible to recover completely. There must be scars. Let''s join hands and meet for a while


    "Good!"


    Huang Zhong agreed.


    They joined hands to kill Lu Bu, intending to kill him. However, even though Lu Bu had been injured, he was able to resist the attack of the two men and did not fall into the disadvantage.


    Around Lv Bu, some of his former subordinates, such as Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, also led the fight. This force is extremely elite, even though Zhang Xiu''s troops are highly effective.


    For a while, there was no benefit.


    At the time of the fighting between the two sides, Xia Houyuan in the rear had led the army out.


    There are as many as 20000 troops around Xia Houyuan. These 20000 troops entered the battlefield and confronted Zhang Xiu''s troops in the central army.


    The two sides fought and fought together.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers quickly resisted, while Zhang Xiu walked leisurely and quickly killed every soldier.


    The two sides fought continuously.


    Just when Zhang Xiu was killing Cao''s soldiers, the soldiers led by Xia Houyuan were on the offensive from the beginning. Gradually, the offensive was weakened, and there was no more fierce offensive.


    Both sides are in a state of anxiety.


    However, such a state of anxiety and confusion did not last long. Zhang Xiu''s elite counterattack made it hard for Xia Houyuan''s soldiers to resist, and the situation was unfavorable to them.


    Xia Houyuan knows Zhang Xiu''s strength, but he doesn''t fight with her. He just commands the soldiers to rush and kill them, and then kills them. However, seeing that the soldiers under her gradually lose, he is worried and frowns.


    What''s going on?


    How come the front-line soldiers have not been killed yet? If the front-line soldiers are unable to win and do not join him again, this battle may be dangerous and he will have to retreat into the mountains.


    In the original plan, the battle was to be won. Once we lose here, we''ll fart in the back?


    Just when Xia Houdun was worried, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers rushed to Huang Zhong and Sha Moke and gave the order to retreat.


    This is the plan.


    Huang Zhong and shamoko no longer love war. After abandoning Lubu, they ordered to retreat.


    With the two men''s retreat, the soldiers also followed the rapid retreat, began to retreat in the direction of Zhang Xiu. After the confluence of the army, Zhang Xiu saw the soldiers of Cao army who had been killed.


    He has been observing the changes in the situation on the battlefield, throughout the battlefield, although Cao Cao sent a considerable number of soldiers out to fight. In fact, if we do our best now, the other side is likely to retreat into the mountains.


    It''s not easy to kill each other.


    Cao Cao never appeared from the beginning to the end, so Zhang Xiu didn''t make a concerted effort to attack. She had to lead the snake out of the cave and Cao Cao out according to the earliest plan.


    Only in this way can we achieve the goal.


    "Cao''s army is ferocious, withdraw, withdraw the whole army!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order to retreat.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, his army began to retreat on a large scale, and no longer wanted to fight. Even if Zhang Xiu''s soldiers retreated, it was an orderly evacuation.


    If we fight and retreat, we will not be covered up on a large scale.


    This is what Zhang Xiu trains on weekdays.


    When he retreats, he should be more aware of the way to kill his soldiers.

 Chapter 765

    The soldiers quickly retreated, and ensured that the retreat was not covered up on a large scale. Gradually, they withdrew from cangshanling. When Zhang Xiu retreated, the combined forces of Xia Houyuan, Guan Yu and Lu Bu quickly pursued him.


    "Kill, kill Zhang Xiu."


    XiaHouYuan cried out and encouraged his soldiers.


    Lu Bu and Guan Yu are both fighting. They lead the team to sprint and kill Zhang Xiu''s soldiers in the rear. In the process of chasing and escaping, the distance from Cangshan Mountain is getting farther and farther.


    Xia Houyuan led the soldiers to chase him, and a sneer came up from the corner of his mouth. The previous fight, he saw Zhang Xiu retreat, is obviously intentional, this is to induce him to pursue.


    Unfortunately, this was expected.


    The result of Cao Cao, Guo Jia and other people''s deliberation is that they are ready to make plans. Follow Zhang Xiu''s retreating troops and horses to catch up, and then lead the snake out of the hole, all the troops that lie in ambush in Zhang Xiu''s dark.


    Then, completely destroy Zhang Xiu''s army.


    This time, Cao Cao gave up.


    In particular, in Xinye County, in addition to the soldiers previously recruited, Cao Cao once again forcibly recruited a group of troops to solve the war, and gathered the soldiers who had fled back to Xinye before. The number of troops was no less than that of Zhang Xiu''s 50000 troops.


    This is the premise for Cao Cao to dare to fight the first World War.


    XiaHouYuan''s heart is also full of expectations for this war. He took the soldiers to continue to pursue. Half an hour later, they came to an empty place.


    This place is open.


    It''s suitable for cavalry to attack.


    When Xia Houyuan saw it, he sneered. He can roughly determine that this is the place where Zhang Xiu is preparing to ambush.


    "Dong! Dong


    All of a sudden, the drums are beating.


    After the battle drum sounded, suddenly, on the left side of the retreating official road, a cavalry of more than 3000 people appeared. This cavalry is the white horse Yicong under Zhao Yun.


    "White horse, just follow, kill!"


    Zhao Yun attacked his armor, drove his horse to charge quickly, and went straight to the left wing of Xia Houyuan''s army.


    "Boom!"


    At the same time, on the right-wing side of XiaHouYuan, outside the open and flat area, another 3000 cavalry troops entered. This cavalry is the flying bear cavalry under Huang Zhong.


    Six thousand cavalry, from left and right.


    Behind the six thousand cavalry, a group of infantry followed, which was behind the cavalry to cover up the scattered Cao army.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops are all out.


    Zhang Xiu was no longer retreating. He turned around and ordered: "sons, the time has come to kill Cao Jun. Kill, kill with me


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun and drives the horse back.


    "Kill


    Shamoke carries the bone of Tribulus terrestris and follows Zhang Xiu quickly.


    Huang Zhong, Wang Yue and others followed closely.


    The whole team under Zhang Xiu''s command launched an attack and quickly fought back.


    Xia Houyuan looks at Zhang Xiu''s attack and sneers. He didn''t have any fear, because the current situation was expected by Cao Cao, and he didn''t take charge of the two winged cavalry.


    "Woo! Woo


    The horn sounded from the rear of the XiaHouYuan army.


    The sudden sound of the trumpet was loud and powerful throughout the battlefield. With the sound, a moment later, there were two cavalry in the rear of Xiahou yuan, one on the left and the other on the right. They quickly went to the left and right wings to kill the cavalry.


    The left-wing cavalry was headed by Xu Chu.


    The cavalry on the right wing is headed by Cao Zhen.


    The cavalry led by the two men is the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Cao. Two people each lead 5000 tiger leopard ride, directly met up.


    This is Cao Cao''s most elite army.


    Hubaoqi fought with baimayi and Feixiong cavalry. In the end, Cao Cao led the army and appeared at the back. With a wave of his hand, more powerful infantry entered the battlefield.


    Before that, it was Xia Houyuan who commanded the war and fought Zhang Xiu''s army in cangshanling. Cao Cao''s aim is to lead out Zhang Xiu''s ambush and let Xia Houyuan pursue him.


    When Zhang Xiu and Xia Houyuan left Cao Cao''s ambush, he quickly led the army out and hung behind Xia Houyuan.


    In doing so, I don''t know.


    In this way, it ensures that once Zhang Xiu''s ambush comes out, Cao Cao can deal with it immediately. Now Cao Cao looks at a scene on the battlefield, his face is full of joy.


    The decisive battle is here.


    With the help of this war, he will completely defeat Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Zhang Xiu saw all killed Cao Jun, saw the mighty and dense head, knew that Cao Cao had given up everything. Today, Cao Cao''s troops have all come out.


    There was a look of pride in the corners of his mouth.


    Cao Cao is in the trap.


    With a wave of her hand, Zhang Xiu''s heralds waved the flag. With the shaking of the flag, one thousand soldiers gathered in the rear of the battlefield gave orders."Cao Cao, I''ll take Xinye."


    A thousand soldiers, shout in order.


    "Cao Cao, I''ll take Xinye."


    "Cao Cao, I''ll take Xinye."


    ¡­¡­


    A thousand soldiers in order to shout, this voice resounded in the battlefield, mighty. Even though the battlefield is full of hooves and cries of killing, the cries of a thousand soldiers still reverberate on the battlefield.


    Both Cao Jun''s soldiers and Zhang Xiu''s soldiers could hear clearly.


    In fact, in order to win the battle, Zhang Xiu not only ambushed Cao Cao''s army here, but also arranged a few soldiers to lurk in the new field.


    When Cao Cao''s army left, it would be as easy for the rest of them to seize Xinye.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao''s face remained unchanged.


    In Xinye, there was no food, no money, no equipment, and even XiahouDun was taken away. In today''s situation, as long as he can win the war, Cao Cao does not need to care so much.


    Therefore, Cao Cao immediately arranged for a group of bodyguards around him to get together and shout, saying that Xinye had deliberately given up and did not need Xinye, so as to appease the morale of the soldiers in the army.


    On the battlefield, the killing began.


    Three thousand white horses led by Zhao Yun met with tiger and leopard riders. In the face of more tigers and leopards than him, Zhao Yun did not have the slightest fear and led the soldiers to rush forward quickly.


    "The white horse''s righteousness follows, chisels through!"


    With Zhao Yun''s order, his white horse Yi changed from a new formation to a conical formation, and went to kill tigers and leopards. But just after baimayi''s transformation, the tiger and leopard riders led by Xu Chu also changed quickly.


    The two sides came into contact and began to fight together.


    On the other side, hubaoqi and Feixiong cavalry also fought together.


    Even though the number of cavalry under Zhang Xiu''s command is a little less, its combat effectiveness is no less than that of tiger and leopard cavalry. In particular, these soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command all know the truth that if they fight to the end, they will be rewarded.


    Once you''re counselled, you''re looked down upon.


    Every postwar commendation in the army is a matter of fact.


    Every soldier knows that he can get numerous awards after he has made war contributions. Therefore, under such a premise, when the soldiers in the army encounter war, they all scream and rush forward without retreating.


    The cavalry on the left and right sides, fighting together, became a stalemate.


    This scene, in Cao Cao''s eyes, made Cao Cao frown. In Cao Cao''s plan, riding tiger and leopard is his trump card, and it is also the key to determine the outcome of this game.


    As long as the tiger and leopard ride out and fight to defeat Zhang Xiu''s cavalry, they can cut into the battlefield and fight back and forth to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, kill Zhang Xiu''s army and turn the situation around.


    Now, hubaoqi can''t break through.

 Chapter 766

    Cao Cao''s eyes fell on the infantry on the battlefield. All the troops under his command have been put in, and even all the soldiers newly recruited by Liu Bei have been put into the battlefield.


    The number of infantry alone is nearly 40000.


    This is all the strength that Cao Cao can raise.


    Such a fighting force, a team of 40000 people, encountered Zhang Xiu led by the army, did not form a situation of destruction, the situation is still in constant fighting.


    Cao Cao''s eyes turned and fell on Liu Bei''s body. He said in a deep voice, "Xuande, do you think we can finally win this battle?"


    "Yes," said Liu Bei


    Today''s Liu Bei clenches his fist and looks forward to it. He didn''t go to fight, but let Guan Yu fight with his soldiers. After all, Liu Bei is the commander in chief, and his martial arts are ordinary, so it''s not convenient to fight.


    Cao Cao looked again. There was a touch of surprise between his eyebrows. He didn''t see Zhuge Liang.


    This is rare.


    Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are standard accessories for Liu Bei.


    When he was in Xudu in the past, Liu Bei took these people with him wherever he went. Later, Zhang Fei was captured alive by Zhang Xiu. Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu with him wherever he went.


    But now, Zhuge Liang is not around Liu Bei. It''s strange. However, Cao Cao didn''t care about it, because the most important thing at present is to solve Zhang Xiu and defeat her army.


    The fighting on the battlefield has been going on.


    An hour is fleeting.


    Two hours, slip away quietly.


    It was completely dark, and torches were lit around. Red torches burned to disperse the darkness of the area, making the battle place as bright as day.


    The fighting continues.


    Whether it was Zhang Xiu or Cao Cao, the fighting between cavalry and infantry continued.


    We will not give up until we win or lose.


    Zhang Xiu found where Cao Cao''s banner was. He knew that as long as Cao Cao was defeated, the battle would be over. So even though Zhang Xiu fought for several hours, she still insisted. A night later, when the eastern sky appears a touch of fish belly white, the fight is still going on.


    The losses on both sides are enormous.


    On the battlefield, there has been a strong smell of blood.


    A corpse, lying on the ground.


    Soaked in countless blood, the ground has become dark purple. The sun rises in autumn, the rooster sings, the world is white, everything on the earth revives, everything begins to clear up.


    Zhao Yun''s whole body has been soaked with countless blood. In his hand, there was a bright silver gun with a touch of dark purple on the tip. The number of Baima Yicong around him was less than 800. Similarly, there are less than 1000 people riding tiger and leopard.


    Whether it''s a white horse or a tiger or a leopard, they are very tired.


    It''s hard to fight all night.


    "White horse, from righteousness to death, kill!"


    Zhao Yun exclaimed.


    He once again carried out the Longdan silver gun, and his white horse Yicong began to shout. Zhao Yun set up three thousand white horse Yicong. These white horse Yicong veterans lived a hard life in Youzhou.


    After all, they are all sons on the battlefield. When they come back home, they are not good at farming. That is to eat nothing.


    They followed Zhao to Yunnan and became a member of Baima Yi again. One by one, under the command of Zhang Xiu, they can eat well, wear well, and support their families.


    Therefore, all people cherish the hard won happiness.


    Just like this, these white horse righteous soldiers dare to fight and kill. The combat effectiveness of the veterans and the recruits, even if it is the elite of the tiger and leopard riders, is hard to take advantage of the white horse.


    Zhao Yun drives his horse forward. He rushes to Xu Chu, swings his long gun and stabs Xu Chu in the chest.


    Xu Chu raised his sword to fight, and the two fought as a regiment.


    It''s just that it''s hard for two people to win.


    In the fight, white horse from the sprint, quickly into the tiger and leopard riding. Although the number of tiger and leopard riders is slightly dominant, there are only one or two hundred more. This weak advantage can be gradually ignored.


    White horse Yi from a soldier, as if to eat tiger and leopard riding. The sharp momentum, tearing tiger and leopard riding offensive.


    With the fighting on the battlefield, the situation gradually became clear.


    Tiger and leopard riding, gradually lost.


    On the other hand, the cavalry of the flying bear army gradually gained an advantage. In particular, there are Deng Zhan and Shi a in the flying bear army. They are good at assassinating. They ride back and forth on the battlefield to kill the cavalry of tigers and leopards.


    Whether on the left or on the right, the cavalry of tigers and leopards began to get into trouble.


    In the infantry, Zhang Xiu is opposite to Lv Bu.


    After a night''s fighting, Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu are quite tired. Compared with Lv Bu''s state, Zhang Xiu''s spirit is still vigorous. This kind of Zhang Xiu makes Lv Bu feel that she is a young man and her state is still the same.


    However, he was getting older. After staying up all night, his spirit began to decline. Facing the fierce attack of Zhang Xiu, Lv Bu''s energy is poor, so he can only retreat to avoid the edge of Zhang Xiu.Lu Bu was defeated, so were Dian Wei, Xia Houyuan and others.


    The whole Cao army''s soldiers gradually showed a state of invincibility.


    On the battlefield at this time, both Zhang Xiu''s soldiers and Cao Cao''s soldiers had lost more than half of their troops, and their respective forces were less than 20000. The losses were huge.


    But Zhang Xiu could not retreat.


    Zhang Xiu must continue to kill Cao Cao and defeat Cao Cao''s army.


    Under the fierce attack of Zhang Xiu, Sha Moke, Huang Zhong, Wang Yue and others, the burning fighting situation on the battlefield gradually began to change, and more and more Cao soldiers began to retreat.


    This scene falls in Cao Cao''s eyes.


    Cao Cao clenched his fist, looked unwilling, and gritted his teeth: "why, why did he still lose. We take the plan of ambush, in this battle with Zhang Xiu, unexpectedly not enemy Zhang Xiu''s army. We deployed so many troops, and at first we had the advantage, but now we are still in a rout. "


    Cao Cao''s heart is extremely subdued.


    The number of troops under his command is no less than that of Zhang Xiu. Even, he was the first to ambush in cangshanling, constantly weakening Zhang Xiu''s strength, but after a night of fighting, he was still defeated.


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and sighed.


    He also felt helpless.


    In Liu Bei''s eyes, there was still a touch of hope, and he said in a deep voice: "Cao Sikong, no matter what, must fight to the death. Before that, when he was in Xinye, Kong Ming had already left and returned to Yuzhou to mobilize his troops. "


    "He will transfer the remaining 20000 troops from Runan. Kongming''s intention is to go back and mobilize soldiers for fear of losing the enemy. When we ambushed, I had already arranged for someone to deliver the message. "


    "Hold on a little longer, Kong Ming will come."


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "as long as Kong Ming comes with the army, Zhang Xiu will be defeated in this battle."


    After hearing this, Cao Cao was very surprised, and he made a quick calculation in his heart. He even thought that Liu Bei''s arrangement for Zhuge Liang to go back and dispatch troops might be to pick peaches. After he defeated Zhang Xiu, Zhuge Liang might attack him or capture more interests.


    But now, Cao Cao can''t blame anything.


    He needs Zhuge Liang''s troops.


    As time went by, Cao Cao''s soldiers were more and more defeated. Countless soldiers retreated, unable to stop Zhang Xiu''s army attack.


    Cao Cao and Liu Bei are very nervous.


    Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and asked, "Liu Xuande, when will Zhuge Liang come?"


    "I don''t know," Liu said


    "You..."


    Cao Cao was very angry, but under the current situation, he had no choice but to order to stick to it again.


    Another quarter of an hour passed.


    Cao Cao''s soldiers, with more and more casualties, have begun to rout on a large scale.


    Lost!


    Cao Cao was defeated.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, the mighty battle drum came from the right wing of the battlefield. After the war drum sounded, the mighty cry of killing clearly spread to the battlefield.


    "Here we are. Here we are."


    After hearing this, Liu Bei became excited and excited.

 Chapter 767

    When Cao Cao heard that Zhuge Liang was coming, he looked a little embarrassed. He seemed happy, but he seemed to sigh. Because in today''s situation, Zhuge Liang''s army involved in the battlefield, even if it can reverse the war, it means that Cao Cao''s forces are not much left.


    Even though Cao Cao was not afraid of Zhuge Liang''s attack, he had no chance to contain Liu Bei''s going south.


    At that time, Liu Bei will seize Jingzhou.


    On the surface, Cao Cao promised Liu Bei that after he captured Jingzhou, Liu Bei would be in charge of Jingzhou, but he only needed part of Nanyang County. But Cao Cao is not a good man. How can he let Liu Bei be a great man?


    Cao Cao''s wishful thinking is to transfer Liu Bei out of Yuzhou and weaken Liu Bei with the help of the war with Zhang Xiu, which makes Liu Bei need Cao Cao''s help even if he wants to enter Jingzhou.


    At that time, Liu Bei was in Jingzhou, while Cao Cao was stationed in the army. In this way, Jingzhou, under Liu Bei''s control, is not afraid.


    This is Cao Cao''s plan.


    But now it''s not. It can only be Huanxi who can defeat Zhang Xiu.


    At least he could avenge Cao Hong and Xia Houdun.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The sound of war drums is getting closer and closer, and the sound is becoming more and more obvious.


    Cao Cao didn''t hesitate. He was always a decisive man. He began to shout for reinforcements and let his soldiers fight hard. Under the influence of Cao Cao, one by one Cao''s soldiers, knowing that reinforcements were coming, all rallied themselves and began to attack again.


    The original low morale, and even the situation that began to falter, completely changed.


    "Kill, reinforcements are coming."


    "Kill


    "It''s today to kill Zhang Xiu!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded.


    For a time, Cao''s morale was like a rainbow.


    Zhang Xiu heard the drums of war in the distance. At this time, the cavalry quickly came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Taiwei, there are a large number of troops on our right wing. The number of people coming here is about 20000. It should be Liu Bei''s troops under the banner of Liu. "


    "Is Liu Bei''s troops Zhuge Liang''s calculation?"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t expect that Zhuge Liang was making a fool of himself in the fire. At the last moment, he sent troops to kill him. He did not panic, said: "fortunately, we arranged the way back, Zhuge Liang wanted to kill, this time, Liu Bei and Cao Cao''s army, together pit."


    A war, the situation is unpredictable.


    Even if the troops are well prepared, there may be crises or even accidents.


    Therefore, we must arrange the way back.


    The battle between Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao also prepared for the future. Even his back road is the same.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "summon, withdraw!"


    Soon after the order was given, the sound of a Gong was heard.


    The sound of gongs spread all over the battlefield.


    "Get out, get out!"


    After Zhang Xiu retreated, Huang Zhong, Sha Moke, Wang Yue, Zhao Yun and others all retreated. With the retreat of the people, all the soldiers under his command began to retreat like a tide, no longer love war.


    The soldiers of the Cao army took advantage of the situation to kill themselves.


    The reinforcements led by Zhuge Liang also stepped into the battlefield and killed the soldiers behind Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of the soldiers in the rear. He quickly came to the rear. After meeting with Sima Yi, he said, "Zhong Da, has the final arrangement been made?"


    Sima Yi said, "don''t worry, my Lord. It has been arranged properly."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "if so, you leave first. You are not fit to participate in the final fight. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi was ordered to leave with a few soldiers.


    With the retreat of the army, when Zhang Xiu''s soldiers withdrew their legs, he began to order them to flee around to avoid being attacked on a large scale.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu even let the soldiers throw away their weapons, take off their armor and run.


    In this way, increase the speed of retreat.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of Cao Cao and Liu Bei in the rear. Although Cao Cao was depressed and Liu Bei''s troops had the advantage, he could not help laughing when he saw Zhang Xiu''s soldiers flee on a large scale, and even many soldiers throw away their armor and weapons in order to run faster. His face was full of joy.


    "Win, we win."


    "Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu has today."


    Cao Cao had a bright smile on his face and was very happy. No matter what the thoughts of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are, this battle is to defeat Zhang Xiu, and there is something joyful about it.


    Liu Bei also clenched his fists and said in his heart: "third brother, do you see the spirit in heaven? Big brother is going to avenge you. Big brother, this time, will kill Zhang Xiu. "


    However, with a smile, Ge Qiliang is on his way.


    The crowd began to chase.


    However, no matter Cao Cao, Guo Jia, Xun you and others, or Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, sun Qian and others, they could not pursue them in person, so they did not rush to follow.Guan Yu, Lu Bu, Xia Houyuan, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others are leading the crazy pursuit. This pursuit, from morning till dawn, and towards noon, has been getting closer and closer to Xinye.


    Guan Yu and Lu Bu, who are pursuing, give a loud order to speed up.


    Guan Yu looked at Lv Bu and roared, "Lv Bu, hurry up. Now Xinye is likely to fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu. If you let Zhang Xiu escape back to Xinye City, it will be difficult to take Zhang Xiu down. "


    Lu Bu snorted: "Guan Yunchang, you don''t need to talk too much. In any case, this battle will be won and Zhang Xiu will be killed. Up to now, Zhang Xiu''s forces are scattered, and the number of people around him is less than 2000 or 3000. If you look carefully, Zhang Xiu''s troops are less and less. Under such circumstances, he can''t escape. "


    Along the way, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers kept escaping.


    However, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s forces did not separate their forces to pursue Zhang Xiu, because now they separate their forces to pursue Zhang Xiu, which will weaken their strength to pursue Zhang Xiu. For them, Zhang Xiu is the most important. As long as you catch Zhang Xiu, you will be better than a thousand troops. If Zhang Xiu is lost, even if tens of thousands of people are killed and thousands of people are captured, it doesn''t make much sense.


    "Pursuit, full speed pursuit!"


    Guan Yu snorted and ignored Lu Bu, so he continued to order again.


    Zhang Xiu led the troops to retreat quickly, and retreated forward nearly two quarters of an hour, came to a low-lying area. In this area, the terrain is open, with hills on both sides and turbulent water nearby.


    Tuanshui, a branch of Mianhe River, passes through Xinye.


    Zhang Xiu''s army retreated to the ferry on the turbulent river bank. The army stopped and did not retreat. In the eyes of Lu Bu and Guan Yu, both of them are happy.


    Zhang Xiu can''t escape.


    Guan Yu laughed and roared: "Zhang Xiu''s desperate escape is desperate. He has no way to escape. To keep on running, you have to jump into the river. Zhang Xiu is dead. Ha ha ha... "


    At this moment, Guan Yu was very happy.


    Lu Bu is also happy, at this time, he raised his hand, did not let the soldiers under his command attack immediately, but let the soldiers under his command, surrounded Zhang Xiu and his party.


    Lu Bu and Guan Yu rode forward.


    Lu Bu raised his head, eyes fell on the front of Zhang Xiu, said with a smile: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, I pity you are so powerful. Today, it is also in a desperate situation. How can you escape from this war. If you have the ability, jump into the river. If you enter the river and are washed away by the river, you may have a chance to survive. "


    Guan Yu, too, was not in a hurry to kill. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are arrogant and domineering. Kill my third brother and capture Jingzhou. Where do you go today? "


    Zhang Xiu''s manner was self-contained, without any panic. He asked in a deep voice, "what about Cao Cao and Liu Bei?"

 Chapter 768

    Guan Yu stroked his beard under his jaw and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, just like you, you want to see big brother. Well, you will die today. "


    "Who said I was going to die?"


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth raised a smile.


    "Woo! Woo


    Suddenly, on the turbulent River, three building boats appeared. Zhang Xiu looked at the rear of the boat, at the moment three boats quickly close to the pier, in the twinkling of an eye will approach the ferry.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Guan Yu and Lv Bu, do you see them? This is my official''s backhand. Now, there are only a thousand people on board


    "Withdraw!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    He just turned around and went to the ferry quickly.


    The generals under his command, Huang Zhong, Sha Moke, Zhao Yun and others, also followed closely and retreated quickly.


    "Kill


    Guan Yu gave the order.


    "You can''t let Zhang Xiu escape. Kill him!"


    Lu Bu also gave a loud order.


    Two people are nervous, and finally catch up with Zhang Xiu, to the last step, once run Zhang Xiu, can be wasted.


    Guan Yu and Lv Bu ordered the soldiers under their command to rush forward quickly. But at this time, in the three building boats, on the side close to the shore, one by one soldiers stood up, drew bows and arrows, aimed at the shore and fired.


    The position where the bow and arrow were fired was exactly the position where the soldiers under Guan Yu and Lu Bu attacked.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    A bow and arrow, into a soldier''s body.


    For a moment, screams began everywhere.


    One soldier after another, constantly falling to the ground. Rao is so. Lu Bu and Guan Yu are still rushing forward with their soldiers. They have already come here, but now they have to give up. They are absolutely unwilling.


    Two people braved the arrow rain, fast forward. But this short delay, Zhang Xiu, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Wang Yue and others have quickly boarded the building ship, and many of their soldiers have also quickly boarded the ship.


    Even when Guan Yu and Lu Bu arrived at the ferry to cover up the dead soldiers, the hundreds of soldiers who didn''t get on the boat jumped directly into the river.


    It''s autumn, not winter.


    Although the river is cold, it''s not freezing yet.


    Plop! Plop!


    More and more soldiers jumped into the river. When a large number of soldiers jumped into the river, the building boat also started to move, quickly left the ferry and came to the turbulent river. The soldiers who jumped into the river swam quickly, climbed along the ladder put down by the building boat, and then went to the building boat.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Guan Yu, Lv Bu and others who were stunned on the shore and said in a loud voice: "Guan Yu, Lv Bu, do you know why our soldiers fled on a large scale all the way?"


    "It''s not that they are defeated by you, or that they are scattered. It''s because they have long been ordered by our officials to retreat. Now all those who stay with me can swim. "


    "As long as they protect me and get on the building boat, the rest of you will jump into the river and climb on the building boat by themselves. Now, do you understand? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "even if Zhuge Liang arranged a backhand, even if Zhuge Liang mobilized a large number of troops from other places to kill, he still couldn''t win the official."


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    Guan Yu is very angry.


    Lu Bu is also angry, chasing a night, a night of fighting, is to defeat Zhang Xiu, is to eradicate Zhang Xiu. But in the end, Zhang Xiu went directly to the building.


    How does he go after him?


    Go into the river?


    Obviously not!


    A short distance of two or three Zhang seemed to be a natural moat, which made Lu Bu unable to move forward.


    The soldiers under Guan Yu and Lu Bu also looked at the river and sighed. These soldiers chased Zhang Xiu to the Bank of the river. They were very happy.


    After a night''s chase, Zhang Xiu was at a dead end. But now all of a sudden, there''s no chance. Under such circumstances, everyone feels depressed.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the boat, he continued: "it seems that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are still behind. I''m here, waiting for them to catch up. I want to see how disappointed they are that they have not caught up with me? Ha ha ha... "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu laughed again.


    Laughter, full of pride.


    Eyes, but across a trace of cunning.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Lv Bu clenched his fist and immediately arranged for someone to go back to inform him. The soldiers went back to inform him that about half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Bei and Cao Cao arrived at the Bank of the ferry.


    At this moment, Cao Cao looked at Zhang Xiu standing on the edge of the building on the turbulent water. He was also indignant.


    I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu had a back hand.


    Liu Bei''s chest was up and down with anger, and his eyes were full of red blood. At this moment, Liu Bei was deeply disappointed.


    Isn''t the sky dead for Zhang Xiu?


    This time, in order to ambush Zhang Xiu''s army, it can be said that he gave up everything. Zhuge Liang brought 20000 elite soldiers from Runan, which never showed up. This is the ultimate killer.But Zhang Xiu escaped.


    Liu Bei''s heart is incomparably not reconciled, his chest ups and downs, suddenly, a mouthful of blood spit out.


    Poof!


    Red blood, everywhere.


    Liu Bei''s face became withered, and he scolded: "thief God, do you have eyes. Zhang Xiu has done many evils and is arrogant and domineering. He even escaped. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Bei, it''s not God''s help, it''s our official who has already arranged the way back. How can I not arrange my way in the battlefield? "


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I swear to kill you. You have escaped today, and you will be killed in the future. "


    Cao Cao also agreed and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are lucky today."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s not my luck, it''s my preparation. If we don''t have enough preparation, today we will really fall into Zhuge Liang''s hands. "


    "You two think that when I get on the boat, I can leave. Why do you want to stay? Is it just to say a few words to you, just to chat with you? "


    "No, you''re wrong."


    "I don''t have the time."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I stay here and talk to you on the turbulent water because I want to count you. Liu Bei and Cao Cao, you''ve fallen into the trap again. "


    Liu Bei and Cao Cao immediately turned their heads and looked around. But when they saw that there was no movement around them, they were surprised and didn''t understand what Zhang Xiu''s calculation was.


    "No, it''s water attack."


    Suddenly, Zhuge Liang opened his mouth.


    His face changed greatly, and he roared: "retreat, Lord, retreat at once."


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, like the sound of a tsunami, came from a distance. I can only see the upstream of the turbulent water, there is a rumbling sound, the turbulent River, has been washed down from the upstream.


    The level of turbulent water rises rapidly.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    It''s the last resort.


    Zhang Xiu''s original intention was to bring out all the troops of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and then to destroy their allied forces. But what Zhang Xiu didn''t expect was that Zhuge Liang suddenly led his troops into the battlefield and disrupted the rhythm.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu launched the final plan.


    He took the initiative to retreat, came to the turbulent ferry. The place is low-lying, once washed by the rising river, and close to the river.


    Once the upstream river is blocked by dikes, the water level will rise, and after the dikes are dug, the vast flood will wash down, and the whole area will become a swamp.


    Neither Liu Bei nor Cao Cao can escape.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    He deliberately procrastinated, deliberately waiting for Liu Bei and Cao Cao to come, is to calculate the two, as well as their army.

 Chapter 769

    Boom!!


    The mighty river surges down from the upstream.


    Before we got to the location of the ferry, the river was full of turbulence, spreading to both sides of the river. That mighty current scours, all around, all are submerged.


    Its momentum is unstoppable. Especially when the river is scoured from high to the ground, the force of the river is more fierce, and the trees along the way are destroyed one after another, all of them are submerged.


    "Run away!"


    Cao Cao roared and gave the order.


    "Run away!"


    Liu Bei also ran and ordered at the same time.


    at this moment, both Cao Cao''s soldiers and Liu Bei''s soldiers ran to the distance quickly. In today''s situation, don''t run away. Once the river is involved in the turbulent water, there is no life or death.


    If you run far away, even if you are washed by the river from the breakwater, you will be washed on the flat ground. Even if you are injured, you will not die.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene with a smile in her mouth.


    This time, the calculation is better.


    In fact, it''s not easy to achieve this step. It''s just a retreat for Zhang Xiu. Only when the army led by Zhang Xiu was in trouble and defeated could he take this step.


    The splashing water and the surging river make the water level of the building rise, which has swept countless Cao Liu Allied soldiers on the depression.


    One by one, the soldiers were unstable and washed forward.


    Screams, one after another.


    Personal power, in the face of the great power of nature, is really insignificant and cannot be countered at all.


    Tens of thousands of troops are in chaos.


    Under the protection of the soldiers, Cao Cao ran a distance and came to a big tree. He was quick witted and quickly took the people around him to climb up the tree.


    Even though the force of the flood is ferocious, the big tree is so big that it can stand still in the flood. Cao Cao squatted on a tree trunk, looked at Guo Jia and Xun you squatting on one side, and laughed inexplicably.


    Guo Jia said, "what is your father laughing at?"


    Cao Cao said with emotion: "what I laugh at is that I didn''t expect that we would have such a scene. What a tragedy! Alas, it''s not easy to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "I don''t care."


    "This time, we lost face again, and our army lost a lot. Wait a moment, the big water waves from the scouring will pass, and the flowing river will gradually become gentle. Then, we leave as fast as we can


    "I can''t stay in Xinye."


    Cao Cao''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said, "we will not go to Yuyang County, nor to the counties in the north. Although we have a few soldiers all over the country, we are not strong enough. If we are attacked by the local people, it will not be good. Send orders to all parts of the country for them to withdraw. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Xun you turned his eyes and looked around. On a big tree not far away, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang also squatted on the trunk. He suddenly laughed and said, "Lord, Liu Bei is not far away from us, about forty steps away."


    Cao Cao looked up and burst into laughter.


    Unexpectedly, like Liu Bei, they all squatted on the strong branches.


    What a funny story!


    Xun you lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "Lord, although Zhuge Liang brought the army, Liu Bei''s troops disappeared in the flood. Around the Lord, there are Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Xia Hou yuan and others. We can take Liu Bei by force. Now, do you want to take it? "


    "No need!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "now, if we are in harmony with Liu Bei, we will benefit each other. If we win Liu Bei, we may not be able to swallow Liu Bei''s strength in a short time. Next, we have to face Zhang Xiu. Keeping Liu Bei for the time being is conducive to our alliance with Liu Bei. More strength, more strength. "


    Xun you nodded and said no more.


    After waiting for a long time, Cao Cao ordered the people to go into the water and quickly leave with the flood of nearly half the people.


    If we don''t retreat, we will die.


    When Cao Cao and Liu Bei got into the water one after another, and then left quickly with one foot deep and one foot shallow, a small boat appeared in the upstream of the turbulent water, in which there were soldiers with long guns.


    This is the team that''s going to cover up.


    Even if there are only a hundred small boats and a thousand soldiers, it is a sharp weapon in today''s situation.


    Zhang Xiu''s building boat is still on the turbulent water.


    After all, the water on the shore is shallow, so the building ship can not go forward, and can only temporarily dock on the turbulent water.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the soldiers who are going to cover up and looks at Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others nearby. She says with emotion, "if we can win Cao Cao and Liu Bei in this battle, it''s the best. Without Cao Cao and Liu Bei, it would be much easier for us to attack Yanzhou. "


    "Lord, it depends on luck, but it''s not easy to win them," Huang saidZhang Xiu nodded and said: "now this situation can only depend on luck. Wait, wait for the news of the soldiers. This flood will completely eliminate our threat. "


    "What the LORD said is true," said Huang Zhong


    The building ship went down the turbulent water and stopped at a place not washed by the river. It''s a highland, it''s a hill, and the washed River can''t come here.


    Zhang Xiu takes Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Wang Yue and others to get off the building and get on the high ground. She also arranges people to send a letter to inform everyone to come and meet, and then quietly waits for the results.


    In the afternoon, towards evening.


    Sima Yi and the rest of the scattered soldiers began to return one after another.


    The night is falling, the stars are shining.


    It makes the darkness burn like a fire.


    Soldiers in the army, start preparing meals. Soon after the smoke rose, there was a smell of rice and meat. From yesterday''s fighting to today''s, many soldiers have been hungry and exhausted.


    When the food came out of the pot, the soldiers began to eat.


    Zhang Xiu after eating, waiting in place, waiting for the soldiers to return to report the news.


    A night goes by.


    Only in the early morning of the next day did the soldiers who went to pursue and kill return.


    Xiaowei, a member of the army leader, came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Taiwei, in this battle, we killed more than 3000 people, captured more than 10000 people, and most of them fled. These prisoners were stationed at the foot of the mountain. It''s just that the corpses along the way haven''t been restrained yet. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "don''t you see Cao Cao and Liu Bei?"


    "No!"


    The captain shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "even an important general, or counselor, have not been caught?"


    "Neither," said the captain


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help sighing. Although the war won, it was a pity. If we can catch Cao Cao''s counselors, Zhuge Liang and so on, we are worthy of it.


    Unfortunately, none of them were caught.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Xiaowei to take the soldiers to dinner, and then arranged for Huang Zhong to count his losses.


    In this battle, Zhang Xiu''s troops lost as many as 28000 soldiers, all of whom died on the battlefield. Even the cavalry of Baima Yicong and Feixiong army died nearly 80% of the time, which can be described as a heavy loss.


    Of course, if we calculate the number of Cao and Liu allied forces killed in this war, at least 30000 people will be killed, and now more than 40000 people will be killed.


    This victory was quite tragic.


    Huang Zhong''s flying bear army was almost crippled. Even the Heishan army and Baima Yicong brought by Zhang Xiu are the same.


    However, it''s always to hold on.


    This battle, won!

 Chapter 770

    Zhang Xiu see a heavyweight, did not seize, will no longer be in charge of catching things. He arranged for Huang Zhong to take people with him. Along the way, he began to restrain the body and burn it directly.


    After arranging all this, Zhang Xiu takes Sima Yi and others to Xinye county.


    Now Xinye has won.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu planned to take Xinye, but Cao Cao also devoted all his soldiers to Xinye. So a few soldiers arranged by Zhang Xiu easily captured Xinye county.


    Back in the city, the soldiers were stationed.


    It took three days for Huang Zhong to withdraw with his soldiers.


    In fact, in this battle, Zhang Xiu and Cao Liu''s allied forces suffered countless losses.


    Too many soldiers have been lost.


    Zhang Xiu asked Huang Zhong, Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun, etc. to count their losses in order to provide for the soldiers. In addition, they arranged for people to set up a burial mound in the place where the soldiers died, and then set up a stone tablet with the height of three people.


    Zhang Xiu went in person to mourn the dead soldiers. After all this, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command should be adjusted. Those who should be given pension are also given pension.


    Those who deserve to be rewarded will also be rewarded.


    All those who should be promoted should be promoted.


    Behind a war, the money and food consumed are enormous. Thanks to the rich places like Jingzhou, Hanzhong and Guanzhong, Zhang Xiu could afford such a war of attrition.


    On this day, in Xinye city.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu summoned the civil and military generals under her command, and everyone gathered.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she said in a deep voice: "I can''t swallow the tone of being attacked by Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Originally, my plan was to dispatch troops to Yizhou and seize Yizhou first, regardless of Cao Cao and Liu Bei after the huge losses. "


    "But I thought about it. In this war, we lost countless soldiers, especially Jia Xu and Gan Ning in the north, who defeated Yuan Shao. Cao Cao is not prepared to give up on such a premise. "


    "It''s not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. But I, Zhang Xiu, am not a gentleman. If I have revenge, I will take revenge. If I don''t, I will have a knot in my heart. So I decided to mobilize the army and go north again to attack the area under the jurisdiction of Cao Cao in Yuzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "do not seek to kill Cao Cao, at least to hurt Cao Cao, let Cao Cao incomparable pain."


    When people hear what they say, they all think for themselves.


    A moment later, Huang Zhong took the initiative to say: "Lord, now we are converging with the two armies of the black mountain army, plus Baima Yicong, the troops are less than 20000, and the losses are enormous. Under such a premise, is it suitable to fight? The last general thinks that we should take a rest and recover our strength first. "


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "we have lost a lot. Is the loss of Liu Bei and Cao Cao small? In my hand, there is also an imperial edict ordered by the emperor, which is specially used to attack Cao Cao. "


    "Now, we will use the emperor''s edict to attack Cao Cao."


    "Cao Cao''s loss in this battle is huge. The emperor intends to seize power inside, and we attack outside. Even Liu Bei was still staring at Cao Cao. Although we are weak, in fact, we are not weak either. "


    "We went north from Xinye, first to Yuyang County, then to Nanyang County, and finally to Luyang county. Along the way, new recruits will be recruited and strength will be restored. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if the combat effectiveness of the recruits is weak, they will still have combat effectiveness when the number of recruits is sufficient. What''s more, in this war, I''m going to send troops from Hanoi to Yanzhou. This time, let Cao Cao have a taste of being besieged by many armies. "


    Huang Zhong heard, no longer speak, he has heard Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    This is determined to send troops.


    Zhang Yan''s present black mountain army has only over 6000 troops, which has caused huge losses. This time the loss, but also make Zhang Yan heart hold a breath, he clenched his teeth and said: "Lord, I agree to send troops. If you don''t beat Cao Cao, you will never give up. "


    "Yes, if you don''t beat Cao Cao, you will never stop."


    Zhao Yun also spoke directly.


    Today, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong is a team of 3000 people. But now, there are less than 600 people.


    The loss is huge.


    After returning to Zhang Xiu, Zhao Yun also experienced several wars. His Baima Yicong also took part in the war several times. Although there are occasional losses, they are still in the range of bearing.


    Today''s loss, he is unbearable, the loss is too big. To restore the fighting capacity of Baima Yicong, it must take a long time.


    The generals spoke one after another.


    It''s true that although this battle was won, the generals were not willing to accept it.


    I don''t want to just give up.


    I don''t want to retreat like this.


    In particular, without Zhuge Liang''s last 20000 troops, this battle would be enough to destroy Cao Cao''s and Liu Bei''s troops, and even capture some important figures alive.


    Now, it''s impossible.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Sima Yi and asked, "Zhong Da, what do you think?"Sima Yi said, "I agree to send troops."


    After a pause, Sima Yi continued: "all the generals in the army are unwilling and angry. Similarly, the soldiers in the army are the same, so they think that under the current situation, they can fight the first World War. Officers and soldiers should be like mourning soldiers with their enemies. At this time, the morale of the army can be used to fight. "


    Huang Zhong said: "Mr. Sima''s analysis is right. But the key is, Yizhou, for the time being


    Huang Zhong considered this.


    Yizhou, he believes, should be the first to capture.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, is there any news from Yizhou now?"


    "No!"


    Wang Yue shook his head and replied.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "since there is no news back, it shows that Zhang and Pang Tong have consolidated their previous achievements in Yizhou, at least they have not lost."


    "Although we haven''t gone south to Chengdu, we haven''t broken through the Jianmen pass. For us, it''s nothing. As long as Liu Zhang''s army does not have a counter offensive for the time being, the war in Yizhou will be stranded for some time. "


    "Sooner or later, Yizhou is in the bag. Not only Hanzhong is in our hands, but also Yizhou is under our control. But Cao Cao is different here. If you miss this chance, it''s not easy to defeat Cao Cao. "


    "Especially in this war, Cao Cao and Liu Bei suffered extremely heavy losses. A few days ago, as soon as we won, I had already sent Wang Yue to spread the news of Cao Cao''s defeat to Xudu. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "when the news gets around, I expect that the emperor and the officials loyal to him will make some moves again. With these people holding Cao Cao back, it''s our chance to do it. "


    Huang Zhong said, "if that''s the case, I will fight with my Lord."


    Zhang Xiu has made a decision. Huang Zhong can''t persuade her. It''s a matter of no choice but to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and asked, "do you have any different opinions?"


    "No!"


    All of them answered.


    Zhang Xiu nodded. He looked at Zhang Yan, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun, and said, "you muster the soldiers in the army immediately and let them gather in the school yard. Next, I''m going to lecture, and then I''m going north. "


    "Here it is


    Three people should go to arrange it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu asked someone to clean up the camp. After he took Sima Yi out of the camp, he strode to the military camp.


    At the moment, many soldiers are bound with gauze.


    Many soldiers have been injured.


    The fighting spirit of these soldiers is still high, and they have never been affected by the war. All the soldiers lined up. The school yard was quiet. No one spoke.


    Sima Yi followed Zhang Xiu to the front of the army. Sima Yi stood aside while Zhang Xiu went directly to the front of the army. Zhang Xiu''s head was raised and her eyes swept over all the soldiers.


    The soldiers were in high spirits.


    This is praised by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, no cowards, are all valiant soldiers, are good sons of iron.

 Chapter 771

    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "sons, in this battle of Xinye, you are not afraid of death and will fight to death. In the end, the war was won. You are all good. I am proud to have you soldiers who dare to fight and kill. "


    All the soldiers in the army were glad to hear that.


    Get Zhang Xiu''s praise, these big head soldiers, even big word don''t know a person, very happy.


    Because this is Zhang Xiu''s recognition.


    They are Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although we also killed countless people, although we won, Cao Cao escaped and Liu Bei also escaped. The main culprit in this battle of Xinye is still at large. "


    "Cao Cao and Liu Bei invaded Nanyang County of Jingzhou for no reason, killed our soldiers and captured our city."


    "This feud will not be shared."


    "Don''t take revenge, swear not to be a man."


    "Up to now, Zhang Xiu has never been beaten to the door, and it has never been settled. This time, if Liu Bei and Cao Cao dare to kill them, we will dare to kill them back. "


    Zhang Xiu hands pinch into a fist, in the air mercilessly a wave, Lang voice way: "you, can have the courage to fight again?"


    "Fight


    "Fight again!"


    "Fight again!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers are shouting.


    As a matter of fact, although the soldiers in the army won the battle, they were not willing to. Because in this war, they should have won a great victory, and they should have killed Cao Liu''s allied army like a wreck.


    But in the end, because Zhuge Liang led the troops to kill, the soldiers in the army suffered countless losses. Even though they won in the end, they won by water attack.


    It wasn''t a good win.


    There is no easy way to win.


    Now hear Zhang Xiu said to fight again, a soldier in the army, it is full of energy.


    Zhang Xiu heard the cry of the soldiers, and when the cry of the soldiers calmed slightly, he said again: "revenge, we want revenge. If you don''t take revenge, you will never stop. "


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    ¡­¡­


    The soldiers continued to shout.


    The morale of the soldiers in the whole army has been boiling.


    All the soldiers, blood is boiling. They''re willing to fight, they''re willing to keep fighting. As a matter of fact, for soldiers, although they are fighting on the battlefield with their heads hanging around their waists and living with their heads, there are great risks.


    But if you think about it carefully, for these soldiers who have no special skills and come from poor families, they can''t study and become officials. On the contrary, fighting on the battlefield is the only way out of their predicament.


    Only in this way can we get ahead and become rich.


    This is the only way.


    Especially in Zhang Xiu''s army, rewards and punishments were clear. After each war, some soldiers were rewarded and promoted. After every war, there are soldiers who have made countless contributions. Therefore, the soldiers in the army are keen on fighting and are willing to fight.


    "Send out


    Zhang Xiu stopped staying and gave the order to send troops.


    After leaving Xinye County, the army went all the way north to Yuyang county. Along the way to the north, Zhang Xiu''s army went smoothly, especially Zhang Xiu began to recruit soldiers along the way.


    Nanyang County is the earliest home of Zhang Xiu and the base camp. According to Zhang Xiu''s orders, people constantly came along the way to apply for the army. When the army arrived in Yuyang County, Zhang Xiu had already recruited 6000 soldiers.


    The forces of the Montenegrin army should be replenished quickly.


    When the army arrived in Yuyang County, the magistrate of Yuyang county directly opened the gate to greet them.


    Before that, after Cao Cao and Liu Bei withdrew, Cao Cao ordered a few garrisons arranged by him to withdraw early before the counties responded.


    Every county now is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    After arriving in Yuyang County, Zhang Xiu took a rest day.


    Zhang Xiu directly played the flag of revenge in order to recruit soldiers. After a day''s delay, Zhang Xiu''s army continued to go north. All the way north, through Wan county and other places, and finally reached the northernmost Luyang county.


    By this time, Zhang Xiu''s army had reached nearly 50000. Both the black mountain army and the flying bear army have recruited enough soldiers to supplement their fighting capacity.


    Although the combat effectiveness is weaker, the number of people has been fully replenished.


    Only Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong, the number of temporary almost unchanged. Originally, the cavalry of Baima Yicong was the elite selected from the army, but now both the Heishan army and the Feixiong army have suffered heavy losses, and Zhao Yun is not easy to transfer, so he can only maintain the original for the time being.


    After arriving in Luyang County, the army made a little rest and had already sent troops to the east to kill Yingchuan county.


    When Zhang Xiu went to Yingchuan county to kill him, Xu Du had no choice.


    Cao Cao has withdrawn.


    Liu Bei took Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu and others to return to Runan County.


    Today''s Cao Cao is a louse.


    He''s very upset.


    Because when he returned to Xudu, Xudu was already boiling. Countless officials in the court talked about the war in Nanyang County. Countless officials said that Cao Cao was defeated. Even many officials of the emperor''s Department impeached in large quantities, intending to bring Cao Cao down. Facing this situation, Cao Cao was angry.He never treated the emperor harshly.


    He was quite respectful to the emperor.


    He didn''t want to fight with his courtiers. He just wanted to sweep the world and restore the Han Dynasty. However, the officials in the court didn''t understand his painstaking efforts. Instead, they constantly attacked him and challenged his bottom line.


    Cao Cao was so angry that he started directly.


    People belonging to the family of the emperor were arrested by Cao Cao for various reasons and all of them were sent to prison. For a time, there was an undercurrent in the court, and countless people began to accuse Cao Cao of being a thief.


    However, Cao Cao turned a deaf ear.


    The reason why he was constrained in the court was not that he was afraid of the emperor, but that he was unwilling to bear the blame and tear his face with the courtiers. But in the present situation, he is not willing to keep his hand, but to do it directly.


    For Cao Cao, it is quite simple for him to kill the ministers in the court. Because almost all the people who belong to the emperor''s family are Qingliu gentry. They don''t have much real power, but they are good at gossiping.


    Cao Cao is serious. All these people have to play. For a time, countless officials were killed and put into prison in the whole capital of Xu. Almost all those who impeached Cao Cao and those who attacked Cao Cao were put into prison.


    Sikong mansion, in the study.


    After dealing with the affairs in the army, Cao Cao rubbed his sore temples. Recently, he has to deal with too many things. He is under great pressure. His head aches from time to time.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Cao Cao said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open with a creak, but Guo Jia strode in.


    Guo Jia had a quick look on his face and solemnly said, "Lord, Zhang Xiu is leading the army. Now he is going to Yingchuan county from Luyang county. In addition, Ganning of Hanoi County in the north also dispatched the fierce tiger troops to the South and killed them in the direction of Yanzhou East County. "


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he took a cool breath.


    Zhang Xiu''s entry into Yingchuan and Ganning''s intention to attack Dongjun are a great threat to Cao Cao.


    Guo Jia continued: "this time Zhang Xiu sent out troops, but also took out the emperor''s edict, saying that Zhang Xiu sent troops to attack Yingchuan, not to attack the imperial court, but to clear the emperor''s side and kill the treacherous and sycophantic."


    Speaking of this, Guo Jia sighed and said: "now Zhang Xiu''s army is killing us, which is quite unfavorable to us. And he had the emperor''s edict, which occupied the great justice. "


    Cao Cao clenched his fist and beat the table in front of him with one fist. He was very angry.


    It''s the emperor again!


    Cao Cao gritted his teeth and said, "the little emperor is really hateful. He gave Zhang Xiu an imperial edict. This edict must have been given to Zhang Xiu by the little emperor the last time she came to Xudu. "


    "I respect the little emperor. I have never surpassed him."


    "There was no shortage of money in the palace. Now he is in Xudu, and his life is good. If he is under the command of the other princes, he may not have such a good day. "


    Cao Cao said, "this little emperor is really ungrateful."


    Guo Jia said: "the little emperor wants to deal with the Lord in order to seize power. But the Lord can confine him, can control him, but can''t get rid of him. Now what the Lord wants to do is to consider how to withdraw Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, we will be in danger. "

 Chapter 772

    Cao Cao was even more angry when he heard Guo Jia''s words.


    In a short time, with the help of the great righteousness of the emperor, his strength developed rapidly. But for a long time, he was greatly constrained, because the emperor intended to seize power, and those loyal to the emperor intended to overthrow him.


    Even though Xun Yu and others under his command worked for Cao Cao, they were loyal to the emperor in essence. Only Xun Yu knew that only by following Cao Cao could he have a chance to reorganize the Han Dynasty.


    From time to time, today''s Cao Cao is constrained by the imperial court.


    So, it''s hard.


    Cao Cao clenched his fist and said in a deep voice: "in today''s situation, even if we deal with a large number of people, in fact, there are still people from the emperor''s family ready to move. People with the emperor inside and Zhang Xiu outside come. What do you say to do? "


    Guo Jia frowned at the speech.


    It''s not easy to do.


    If you don''t pay attention, Cao Cao is even in danger of overturning, because today''s Zhang Xiu is no longer the former one.


    Zhang Xiu killed Yanzhou and may defeat Cao Jun.


    The key is that Cao Cao lost a lot in the first World War of Xinye. It is quite difficult for him to mobilize so many troops now. Of course, Cao Cao is not unable to mobilize troops, but the deployment of troops from various places will lead to the vacancy of garrison forces.


    Therefore, Cao Cao must recuperate and temporarily stabilize the situation before he can fight with Zhang Xiu again.


    Otherwise, it is difficult to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "fengxiao, what do you think, but it''s OK to say. Now you don''t have to consider the face of my official. As long as you can withdraw Zhang Xiu''s troops, it''s worth it. "


    Guo Jia said: "humble position on bold advice."


    Cao Cao said, "but it doesn''t hurt to say so."


    Guo Jia''s eyes were sharp and said: "after the first World War in Xinye, there is a gap between the master and Zhang Xiu. Even if the Lord''s strength is to mobilize all the forces to fight against it, it will be able to resist it. But once all the forces from different places are transferred back, it will certainly cause turbulence in different places. So now, we can only be soft to Zhang Xiu again. After all, the troops of Yuan Shao and Liu Bei are unreliable, they can''t restrain Zhang Xiu, they can only do so. "


    Cao Cao said, "how do you say to be soft?"


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "there are two strategies in humble position."


    Cao Cao said, "you say it!"


    Guo Jia said: "first, you can promise to give the emperor to Zhang Xiu and let Zhang Xiu take him to Luoyang or Chang''an."


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed.


    All of a sudden, the corner of his mouth went up, a radian was drawn up, a look of praise was revealed, and he praised: "the strategy of filial piety is brilliant! Today''s emperor is beneficial to us, but he has already formed a constraint when he is with us. "


    "So simply give the emperor to Zhang Xiu, let Zhang Xiu control the emperor."


    "Now that Zhang Xiu is powerful and the emperor is in his hands, there must be a contradiction between Zhang Xiu and the emperor. Moreover, the people of the emperor''s family will also have conflicts with Zhang Xiu. "


    Speaking of this, Cao Cao continued: "of course, it''s very possible that Zhang Xiu won''t want this hot potato. In a word, this is an advantage for Zhang Xiu. He doesn''t want it. That''s his business. "


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Cao Cao said, "what about the second?"


    Guo Jiachen said: "second, in the name of the emperor of the imperial court, he worshipped Zhang Xiu as the king of Qin. Guanzhong has been the land of Qin since ancient times. The son of heaven worshipped Zhang Xiu as the king of Qin, which is right. "


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "fengxiao, you''re not giving Zhang Xiu any advantages. On the contrary, you''re adding obstacles to him. According to your arrangement, it is equivalent to baking Zhang embroidery on the fire. You know, there is no king of different surnames in the Han Dynasty. Zhang Xiu is not a fool. He can certainly understand. "


    After a pause, Cao Cao continued: "after careful consideration, these two conditions seem to be good for Zhang Xiu. In fact, it''s not good for Zhang Xiu. I think, in the absence of real benefits, Zhang Xiu can not agree. "


    Guo Jia thought about it for a while, and then continued: "in that case, let''s give Zhang Xiu some practical benefits."


    Cao Cao said, "what are the advantages?"


    Guo Jia replied: "promise Zhang Xiu that he will attack Liu Bei in Yuzhou, and the Lord will not intervene."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Guo Jia said, "what is your father laughing at?"


    Cao Cao stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "what I''m laughing at is that you Guo fengxiao are so unprofitable that you can''t get up early. It seems that you''ve given Zhang Xiu the benefit again. In fact, it''s not so good."


    Guo Jia said: "my Lord is wrong."


    Cao Cao continued: "you should know that although Liu Bei lost his troops in Xinye, he was also a fierce tiger. He is very popular in Yuzhou. To let Zhang Xiu attack is tantamount to driving away the tiger and swallowing the wolf. To use Zhang Xiu and Liu Bei to fight, we can make a profit. But will Zhang Xiu go? "


    "Yes


    Guo Jia nodded solemnly.


    With a smile on his face, he said firmly, "my Lord, the truth is very simple. Because under this premise, Zhang Xiu has the name of directly conquering Yuzhou, which is a famous teacher. ""Zhang Xiu is not a timid person. Under such a premise, the humble official thinks that Zhang Xiu will definitely choose to take the chestnut out of the fire and will agree. "


    "Even if he knew clearly, the consequences of doing so might lead the Lord to be a fisherman. However, if Zhang Xiu succeeds in destroying Liu Bei, she will have a chance to establish herself in Yuzhou. "


    "This is his chance!"


    Guo Jia zhengse way: "so humble expectation, Zhang Xiu may agree to the conditions.". Of course, even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t agree, let''s fight again. Anyway, the situation can''t get worse any more. "


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "what fengxiao said is true. According to Zhang Xiu''s nature, he may agree. However, in today''s situation, there are actually no actual benefits, and Zhang Xiu may not agree. "


    He knows Zhang Xiu well.


    That''s the Lord who doesn''t get up early without profit.


    No good, Zhang Xiu will not give up.


    "No matter what, try again," Guo said


    Cao Cao asked: "who will be sent as envoy to Zhang Xiu for a while?"


    Guo Jia said, "Lord, I''m willing to go in person. This time, things are unusual. The rest of us are not at ease. I''ll go and persuade Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao frowned and said, "fengxiao, you know Zhang Xiu. This guy, he always likes to use hostages. First there were ang''er and others, then Ma Teng and Ma Xiu; then there were Yan Liang and Wen Chou; and recently, there was Zhang Fei, Liu Bei''s third younger brother. If you go to Zhang Xiu''s camp and are detained, it''s not good. "


    Guo Jia said confidently: "Lord, don''t worry. After all, it''s a battle between the two armies. It''s just the so-called battle between the two armies. If Zhang Xiu was captured alive in the war, there is no need to say more. But now it''s not, so I''m not afraid of humble duty. "


    Cao Cao said, "be careful!"


    Guo Jia said, "don''t worry, my Lord."


    After that, Guo Jia said: "during his humble duty as an envoy, the Lord mobilized soldiers from all over the country as soon as possible to prepare for the fight. If it goes well, it''s no problem. If you don''t succeed in your humble duty as an envoy, you have to be ready for the war with Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao Cao said, "I will arrange all this properly."


    "Good!"


    After Guo Jia answered, he turned and left Sikong mansion. He went back to his residence first, changed his clothes, took his simple luggage, and rode away from Xudu.


    Guo Jia galloped all the way away.


    There was no delay along the way and he was on his way very fast. The fastest time is more than 200 miles a day. In less than two and a half days, he had entered Fucheng County on the border of Yingchuan.


    At this time, Zhang Fu Xiu led the army to the border.


    Guo Jia is very glad that Zhang Xiu has not captured Fu Cheng county. One by one, he quickly went to Zhang Xiu''s team. When he came to Zhang Xiu''s team, he reported his name directly.


    The soldiers went to pass the news and soon came back, leading Guo Jia to the location of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 773

    Zhang Xiu is very surprised, did not expect that he was killed in the territory of Cao Cao, Cao Cao even arranged a confidant counselor Guo Jia as an envoy. In Zhang Xiu''s view, it is most likely that Cao Cao will admit the advice, otherwise he will not let Guo Jia come.


    Zhang Xiu joked: "when Guo Jun Shi came, could he see that Cao Sikong was weak and couldn''t stop his own soldiers? Therefore, should Guo Jun Shi abandon the dark and turn to the light and work for him instead?"


    Guo Jia said: "Taiwei is joking."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the current situation, Cao Cao in the Xinye war, at the expense of his troops, has come to a dead end. Today''s Cao Cao, where there is anything worthy of service. Mr. Guo, you are a talented person. You should be able to understand your strategy. "


    Guo Jia shook her head and said, "what do you understand or don''t understand. I only know that the food of the king''s salary, loyalty to the king. Since I work for Sikong, I should be loyal to my duty. "


    "If today, because of the weakness of Sikong, I betrayed Sikong and turned to Taiwei, then in the past, because of the weakness of Taiwei, I would turn to other people and could not be loyal to anyone."


    "What''s more, today''s Sikong, though in Yin county and Xinye, has a considerable loss. But in fact, we haven''t lost much, we still have enough strength. "


    "Sikong has jurisdiction over Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and most of Yangzhou, which is of great strength. Although the place is not big, it is not impossible to fight Taiwei. "


    "It''s not difficult for Sikong to call up a hundred thousand people."


    After a pause, Guo Jia raised her head and solemnly said: "the reason why Sikong arranged for me to come here is not for other reasons, but to ease the relationship between the two sides and is not willing to fight again."


    Zhang xiutut shook her head and said, "with you saying so, I have to thank Cao Cao for his great kindness and virtue. He won''t fight with me any more, right?"


    Guo Jia said: "Taiwei''s words are very important."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if there is nothing wrong, commander Guo, please go back."


    Guo Jia''s cheek twitched slightly.


    It''s the same thing that Zhang Xiu didn''t come here.


    Guo Jia said: "Taiwei, there are still important things to do down here."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Guo Jia said: "I came here under the command of Sikong, hoping that Taiwei would withdraw his troops and no longer attack the area under the jurisdiction of Sikong."


    "Dream


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "at the beginning, Cao Cao and Liu Bei mobilized a large army, and without saying a word, they directly attacked Nanyang County and plundered the city. Their behavior was so bad that they had to transfer back to attack Yizhou and fight for Nanyang County."


    "Now, I have won in Nanyang County. Cao Cao is defeated and retreats. I want to attack Cao Cao, but he wants me to retreat."


    "In this world, where there is any advantage, let Cao Cao alone occupy the truth."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Guo Jia, don''t you think my sword is not sharp enough to kill people? Even if you are Cao Cao''s envoy, you can be killed, that is to say, no one dares to say anything. "


    Guo Jia said: "I dare not question Tai Wei''s determination or his ability. Please rest assured. Sikong hopes to ask Taiwei to withdraw. He is willing to pay the price. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "what''s the price? Is it comparable to killing Cao Cao?"


    Guo Jia looked confident and said, "Taiwei is going to destroy Sikong. I''m afraid it''s impossible to do so with Taiwei''s strength. Guo Jiasi has no doubt that Sikong also has the strength and determination. "


    "The reason is very simple. Sikong is not Zhang Lu, let alone Liu Zhang."


    "Under Zhang Lu''s command, there''s a Yanpu."


    "Liu Zhang is weak and dazzled."


    "It''s normal that these two people can''t stop Taiwei''s attack."


    Guo Jia walked in slowly and said: "Sikong is not the same. He is wise and powerful, knows the method of using troops, and can govern state affairs. His subordinates include Xun Yu, Xun you, Chen Qun, Liu Ye, Mao Yu, man Chong and many other good statesmen, as well as Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Zhang Liao, Yu Jin, Li Dian, Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and other military generals. They are full of talents."


    "Under such circumstances, when Taiwei attacked Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places, Sikong was bound to mobilize all his forces to resist. Even if the Taiwei''s troops were strong and powerful, and even if they were divided into Yanzhou and Yuzhou, they would not be able to accomplish their work in one battle. "


    "Sikong tried his best to resist. At that time, Taiwei will lose his strength."


    Guo Jia said: "after the loss of Taiwei''s troops, Yuan Shao is bound to revive. Even Liu Bei and sun CE will take advantage of the situation. The situation at that time will be unfavorable to the Taiwei. "


    Zhang Xiu snorted: "it''s worth the price to exterminate Cao Cao."


    Guo Jia shook his head and said, "if you want to wipe out Sikong, the army where the Taiwei is is is bound to be affected. Under such a premise, it is very likely that the situation of Taiwei will fall apart. "


    "In order to destroy Sikong, it''s obviously not cost-effective to do everything possible."


    "Taiwei, why is that so?"


    Guo Jia said: "rather than this, it''s better to listen to what conditions Sikong is willing to give? The right of the two evils is the least, and the right of the two benefits is the most important. After weighing the pros and cons, Tai Wei, it''s not too late for you to think about it. "Zhang xiuhan said, "let''s hear it."


    Guo Jia said: "first, in view of his merits and strength, the imperial court issued an imperial edict to worship him as the king of Qin. Since then, the Taiwei has been promoted to the rank of nobility. Under one person, over ten thousand people, his power and official position have been ranked as the highest among the princes. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Cao Cao is really calculating. On the surface, worship me as the king of Qin, give me benefits. But actually, it''s baking me on the fire. The Han Dynasty has been handed down for hundreds of years, and there has never been a king with a different surname. Now, to appoint me king of a different surname is to break the precedent and let me be punished by all the people in the world. "


    Guo Jia said: "everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Since it has advantages, it is natural to take certain risks. If it''s all good, I''m afraid Taiwei will think that the situation is not right, let alone believe it. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "especially when Taiwei was king of Qin, it means that Taiwei''s cohesion with his soldiers will be higher. Taiwei''s civil and military generals will be more willing to work hard for Taiwei. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "keep talking!"


    Guo Jia was elated and said: "second, in order to compensate the Taiwei, Sikong was willing to give up his love and let the Taiwei take the emperor and move the capital again. Sikong can let Taiwei move the emperor''s capital to Chang''an, or to Luoyang. "


    Zhang xiutut said: "first, I was appointed king of Qin, so that I was grilled on the fire. Now, let me take the emperor. But the result is that Zhang Xiu is like Dong Zhuo, and it is against the emperor. "


    "Even, Dong Zhuo is the Supreme Master at most, but if I want to be the king of Qin now, I will be even more deceiving. At that time, people all over the world will call me Zhang Xiu Zhang thief. "


    Zhang Xiu said with emotion: "just as now, Cao Cao is called Cao thief."


    Guo Jia said: "Taiwei is joking."


    As soon as the words changed, Guo Jia continued: "third, in order to compensate Taiwei, Sikong promised to let Taiwei attack Liubei in Yuzhou. Liu Bei had been involved in attacking Nanyang County before, so Taiwei could attack Liu Bei at will, but Sikong would not stop him. "


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there was something unexpected.


    Unexpectedly, Cao Cao promised to let him attack Liu Bei, which is a good advantage.


    Although Zhang Xiu speculated that Cao Cao would choose to be a spectator, or even weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength with the help of Liu Bei, or weaken Liu Bei with the help of Zhang Xiu''s strength. But today''s Liu Bei, even if there is strength, strength is not strong.


    This is not only an opportunity to kill Liu Bei, but also an opportunity to enter Yuzhou.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, there is no peace of mind. Cao Cao and Liu Bei entered Nanyang County, and he could not swallow his breath.


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "go down and have a rest. I''ll give you a reply after some discussion."


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia turned and left under the guidance of the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for people to call Sima Yi, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others to discuss the matter together.

 Chapter 774

    Zhang Xiu looked around and said immediately about Guo Jia''s mission and the three conditions mentioned by Guo Jia. Finally, she said, "Cao Cao asks for peace. What''s your opinion?"


    Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "Lord, I don''t agree with reconciliation. In fact, Cao Cao''s three requests are unreliable. The reason is very simple. The first king, the second moving the capital, and the third attacking Liu Bei all had Cao Cao''s selfishness. "


    "Any point, which seems to be good, actually has considerable disadvantages."


    "This is arsenic wrapped in honey."


    "Once you eat it, in the end, you will suffer. Therefore, even if Guo Jia said that there were countless generals under Cao Cao''s command, even if Cao Cao recklessly mobilized his troops to fight against us, the LORD would suffer losses. But I''d rather kill the enemy one thousand and lose eight hundred. Kill Cao Cao first. "


    Sima Yi said: "a chaotic Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou and Yangzhou are more beneficial to the Lord. Cao Cao now almost occupies the land of five states. Once Cao Cao recovers a little, it will be very difficult to destroy him again. "


    "This time, Cao Cao suffered a great loss, almost losing most of his mobile forces. He wants to mobilize forces from all over the country to return to defense. It is very likely that there will be turbulence in all parts of the country. "


    Sima Yi said: "such a result is also beneficial to the Lord."


    Sima Yi gave suggestions directly.


    At present, it is not suitable to talk about peace.


    Huang Zhong nodded and said, "my Lord, I don''t agree to talk about peace. In the past, when he was in Nanyang County, the LORD was weak and Cao Cao was powerful, so it was not suitable to fight Cao Cao. But now, Yuan Shao was maimed, and he was temporarily trapped in Jizhou; Liu Bei''s strength was weakened, and he fled back to Runan to lick his wounds. At this time, it was a great opportunity to attack Cao Cao. I think we should not miss it. "


    Zhao Yun also agreed: "Lord, I agree with the proposal of war. Now we don''t need to be afraid of Cao Cao. After all, Yizhou has no problem for the time being. Compared with the threat of Cao Cao, Liu Zhang is just like a mole ant, while Cao Cao is a tiger, a leopard and a wolf. If we don''t win Cao Cao at this time, we will miss the opportunity. "


    The rest of the people spoke.


    No one is in favor of withdrawal and peace talks, and all support sending troops.


    Zhang Xiu is also thinking about it in her heart.


    In fact, he also tends to send troops. In the current situation, it''s a pity that he missed this opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu wants revenge even more.


    He always believed in "tooth for tooth, blood for blood". Cao Cao and Liu Bei took advantage of the emptiness of Nanyang County to fight directly into Nanyang. In this case, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help it.


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, how to deal with Guo Jia?"


    Shamoko said: "Lord, since we are going to fight against Cao Cao, what do you want to do with so many people? Kill them. The killing of Guo Jia''s flag will show the Lord''s attitude and determination towards Cao Cao. "


    All he wanted was to kill!


    Killing is fun.


    Sima Yi shook her head and said, "as the saying goes, if the two armies don''t kill the emissary, if the Lord kills Guo Jia or detains Guo Jia, it''s inevitable that there will be something wrong."


    "If today, after the Lord detains Guo Jia, and later the Lord attacks all sides, who dares to send envoys? Who would believe what the LORD said? "


    "Although Guo Jia was Cao Cao''s most important confidant. But killing Guo Jia has a great influence on the Lord''s reputation. Therefore, I don''t agree to detain or kill Guo Jia, so I should let him go. "


    Sima Yi also gave an analysis.


    Huang Zhong said: "Mo Jiang also agrees with Guo Jia to go back."


    Zhao Yun said: "the end will agree."


    For Guo Jia''s attitude, everyone is not much different. Except for the murderous rammer, shamoko, all the others followed a default rule on the battlefield.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, it was Wang Yue who came in a hurry.


    Wang Yue looked a little flustered.


    Zhang Xiu frowned: "flustered, but what happened?"


    Wang Yue said: "Lord, Liangzhou is in a hurry."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in Liangzhou, Yang Xiu is in charge of the government affairs, Wu You Gao Lan and pound are in charge of the army. How can there be a sudden emergency?"


    Wang Yue handed over the letter and said, "Lord, I only know that Gao Lan and pound are trapped in the county of Zhangye. Yang Xiuyuan is in Jixian County. He can''t rush for help. He arranges for people to ask for help. "


    With that, he handed the letter.


    After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu opened the envelope and scanned it quickly.


    He frowned.


    Sima Yi asked in a deep voice, "Lord, what happened?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "according to the letter, Gaolan and pound were trapped in Zhangye county. They were jointly calculated by Di people, Qiang people and Xianbei people. When they were in Zhangye, they were surrounded by the army and had to defend themselves with the help of the county seat. "


    "In addition, there are countless Di people and Qiang people in Liangzhou, as well as budugen of Xianbei tribe. Even the local powerful forces have sent troops one after another. "


    "So much so that the whole Liangzhou is in turmoil."Zhang Xiu said: "although Yang Xiu is in Jixian County, he lacks troops and is unable to fight the rebellion. Now Yang Xiu can only stay in Jixian. Today''s Gao Lan and pound are in trouble. "


    When they heard the words, they all changed color.


    Liangzhou is the rear of Zhang Xiu, is a key place. If Liangzhou in the rear is in turmoil, and now Chang''an is only in Chen''s seat, and there are not many troops, the consequences will be unimaginable once it is spread to the rear.


    It''s quite dangerous.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Wang Yue, mobilize the royal guards to investigate the situation as quickly as possible."


    Wang Yue said: "despicable position has been arranged. There is no detailed information about the current situation. I don''t know what''s going on in Liangzhou. Three to five days at most, there will be news from the royal guards. "


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    After Wang Yue retreated, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "there is a big problem in Liangzhou. Now only Chen is in the rear of Chang''an. If Chen is transferred to Liangzhou in the west, Chang''an is prone to problems. Therefore, after careful analysis, we do not have enough troops to counter the rebellion. And if you let it go, Liangzhou will be completely turbulent. Under the turbulent situation in Liangzhou, should we continue to attack Cao Cao? "


    When they heard the words, they sighed.


    It''s true that one wave has not been leveled, and another wave has arisen. Just after the crisis in Nanyang County was solved, and just preparing to attack Cao Cao, I didn''t expect that there would be turbulence in Liangzhou. Under this premise, it is difficult for Zhang Xiu to fight against Cao Cao.


    Sima Yi rubbed her chin, thought for a long time, and said: "I think that Liangzhou has happened now, and I can''t fight Cao Cao any more. It''s something that heaven can''t do without destroying Cao Cao. "


    Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun did not express their opinions, because everyone knows that the current situation is very unfavorable.


    Zhang Xiu was not indecisive. Seeing that they didn''t say much, she said, "now, the war with Cao Cao has been put on hold. Now we can''t attack Cao Cao. Let''s wait until later and solve the Liangzhou crisis first. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and others spoke together.


    Sima Yi said: "Lord, if we deal with the problem of Liangzhou first, I think the most important thing now is to block the news of Liangzhou and forbid it to spread. In this way, when the news of Liangzhou comes out, we will not be afraid of any trouble. "


    Zhang xiudao: "yes, that''s right."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue again and told Wang Yue to send a letter to Xu Shu as soon as possible, asking Xu Shu to arrange to block the official road from Liangzhou to Chang''an, and block the news of Liangzhou, so as to avoid causing turbulence.

 Chapter 775

    Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "since we can''t attack Cao Cao, then we can agree to Cao Cao''s conditions of seeking peace. However, Cao Cao''s three requests, that is, to establish the king and to move the capital, are open to question. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t agree with the move of the capital. Once the capital is moved and the emperor is taken to Chang''an, a sharp sword is hanging above our heads. Although this is beneficial, it brings numerous troubles. So, I''m not going to agree to move the capital. Of course, it is very likely that Cao Cao himself has predicted that we can not agree with him. "


    Sima Yi said, "what the LORD said is true."


    Huang Zhong said, "Lord, where is the king?"


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes. As a general, he wanted Zhang Xiu to be king. Because Zhang Xiu is known as the queen, as a general, he will rise with the tide.


    Zhao Yun, Sha Moke, Zhang Yan and others all looked at Zhang Xiu.


    Everyone is looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s answer.


    Including Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi, as a wise man, knew that in the troubled times, the spirit of the great man was in danger. Especially after Huang Jin''s rebellion, Dong Zhuo''s rebellion and Li Xi''s and Guo Si''s rebellion, the loyalty of the people in the world to the Han Dynasty has been decreasing.


    Among all the princes in the world, few are loyal to the Han Dynasty.


    It can be said that the Han Dynasty has long existed in name, and the real loyalty is very few. Therefore, in Sima Yi''s heart, he also agreed with Zhang Xiu as king.


    Not to be king is not to show power.


    If you are not a king, you cannot go any further.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile and said: "Cao Cao took the initiative to grant me the title of king of Qin by the order of the emperor. Although Cao Cao''s intention is to roast me on the fire, it is an imperial edict issued in the name of the emperor. It is the emperor''s appointment, not my initiative to become king. "


    "How can you disagree with such a good feeling."


    "If people want to criticize me, they will also criticize Cao Cao. I will bear the pressure, and so will Cao Cao. What''s the fear? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m not afraid to be king."


    Hearing this, he rubbed his hands and said excitedly, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    His heart was full of joy.


    As the man king of Wuxi man, he was the man of Zhang Xiu after he was subordinated to Zhang Xiu. Now that Zhang Xiu has become the king of Qin, it''s too right for him to serve. Even his address changed directly.


    The rest congratulated.


    Everyone thanks together, with a look of joy on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu no longer said much and immediately arranged for Guo Jia to come.


    In fact, when Guo Jia was waiting not far away, he didn''t see Zhang Xiu for a long time. In fact, he was a little nervous. If Zhang Xiu refuses, what can he do to turn the tide.


    However, when Guo Jia received the order from the soldiers and Zhang Xiu summoned him, his face was uneasy and disappeared. All worries, all down, not superficial.


    Guo Jia stood up with a confident and calm look. With a smile on his face, he came to Zhang Xiu with the soldiers and said, "Taiwei!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the conditions of Cao Cao have been agreed by our officials."


    Guo Jia was very happy.


    However, Guo Jia did not reveal anything. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "Taiwei is wise. It''s just the so-called combination that benefits both sides. Now, if Taiwei and Sikong attack each other, they will only increase the casualties. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "you mentioned three requests, moving the capital is not necessary, just the king can."


    Guo Jia said: "is Taiwei really not moving the capital?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "no, a man like the emperor is suitable for Cao Sikong."


    Guo Jia said: "now that Taiwei has approved, I''ll return immediately. I''d like to ask Sikong to issue an imperial edict in the name of the emperor to make Taiwei king of Qin. Since Taiwei has agreed, please withdraw immediately and return to Nanyang County. "


    "Withdraw?"


    Zhang Xiu snorted: "Cao Cao has not fulfilled his task. How can I withdraw my troops?"


    Although the situation in Liangzhou is critical, Zhang Xiu can''t be in a hurry.


    Only in this way can we bluff Cao Cao.


    Once Cao Cao is now aware of the turmoil in Liangzhou, he is likely not to be soft again. Instead, he will pose as a great war. Zhang Xiu does not want to see such a result.


    Guo Jia didn''t know the news of Liangzhou. He said in a deep voice: "Zhang Taiwei, there should be basic honesty between people. Please believe in Sikong. Since it''s a promise, Sikong will carry it out. Similarly, ask Taiwei to withdraw. "


    Zhang Xiu was silent.


    Guo Jia continued: "what''s more, after putting aside the position of Taiwei and Sikong against the enemy, the two sides eased relations. Then, Taiwei and Sikong are Weng''s son-in-law. Is there anything you can''t trust between Weng and son-in-law? "


    "All right!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a straight face: "all the words have come to this point. The withdrawal of our officers is the only way."


    "Thank you, captain."


    Guo Jia answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "my army is stationed at the border of Luyang County for the time being. When you return to Xu county, let Cao Cao issue an imperial edict immediately. I will wait at the border until Cao Cao''s edict is delivered. Within eight days, Cao Cao''s edict was not delivered. I immediately sent troops to attack Fucheng county and then went straight to Xu county. You should be clear that I can do what I say. ""Good!"


    Guo Jia answered directly.


    "Goodbye!"


    Guo Jia left immediately. After Guo Jia left, Zhang Xiu also ordered to withdraw and quickly retreat to the border of Luyang county. When Zhang Xiu returns to the border of Luyang County, he first arranges Zhang Yan to leave Luyang county and go to Chang''an in Guanzhong.


    In addition, only a few Baima Yicong left under Zhao Yun''s command also withdrew first. After finishing all this, Zhang Xiu arranged for Wang Yue to immediately send an order to Ganning to withdraw from Hanoi county and to Chang''an.


    After everything is arranged, Zhang Xiu will be stationed temporarily. As for Huang Zhong''s troops, Zhang Xiu does not intend to mobilize them. In a short period of time, Huang Zhong should continue to be in Nanyang County in order to deal with possible accidents.


    When everything was arranged properly, Zhang Xiu waited quietly.


    Although he was anxious about the situation in Liangzhou, he couldn''t. As time went by, it was not until the eighth or seventh day that officials of the imperial court came to issue orders.


    This time, it was Xun you.


    Xun you himself came to announce the emperor''s edict to Zhang Xiu.


    In fact, the arrangement of the imperial edict caused a great disturbance in the court. Countless people loyal to the emperor''s family were shocked, and even Liu Xie was furious.


    However, Cao Cao and Zhang kuozi, especially in the face of the appointment of a strong emperor.


    After receiving the imperial edict, Zhang Xiu looked at Xun you and said, "Mr. Xun, I am king of Qin. I guess the world will change soon. For example, sun ce of Jiangdong, Liu Bei of Yuzhou, Yuan Shao of Jizhou, and Gongsun Zan of Youzhou will be king one after another. This case can not be opened, but once there is a leader, it will spring up like mushrooms


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "in the world, there will be countless people to be king. I suggest that when you go back, you can make Cao Cao king. If Cao Cao doesn''t become king, I''m afraid everyone under his command will be dissatisfied. "


    When Xun you heard the speech, he felt a thump in his heart.


    This was not considered before. Now when Zhang Xiu said it, Xun you understood it immediately.


    Xun you didn''t say much and left directly.


    Zhang Xiu did not stay, but left Nanyang County with Wang Yue, Sima Yi and others to Guanzhong.

 Chapter 776

    From Nanyang County to leave, Zhang Xiu with all the way to retreat, the speed is very fast. Along the way, news kept coming back, all about the situation in Liangzhou.


    Today''s Liangzhou has already fallen into Weiwu, Jincheng, Longxi County, and even Wudu County. Only Hanyang county where Yang Xiu is still.


    Even Gaolan and pound are still trapped in Zhangye county.


    Zhang Xiu is worried about this.


    He only hoped that pound and Gaolan would hold fast and not be killed.


    Along the way, a steady stream of news came back, and all the messages were clear.


    For some unknown reason, Xianbei Budu suddenly fled to Liangzhou from the west of Liaoning Province, united with the Di people, Qiang people and local powerful people in Liangzhou, and performed a play in Liangzhou, making it look like a small rebellion.


    At the beginning, Gao Lan dispatched a small force of 3000 people to go there, but they were surrounded and annihilated. The second time, Gao Lan increased his forces and sent 6000 troops to the area. However, 6000 people were still swallowed.


    Twice in a row, as many as 9000 people were lost.


    This situation shocked Gao Lan and pound. After discussing with Yang Xiuyi, they dispatched more than 20000 troops. But unexpectedly, after the army of Gaolan and pound went deep, all the retreating roads in the rear were cut off, and Longxi and Jincheng counties were turned over.


    As a result, there is no way out.


    Moreover, Gaolan and pound were attacked and had to retreat to Zhangye. In particular, the army besieging Gaolan included not only the Xianbei people under budugen''s command, but also the Di people, Qiang people, and some local powerful people.


    Finally, Zhangye could only retreat into the county.


    After the news came out, Yang Xiu did not dare to delay, so he immediately sent someone to report to Chang''an.


    Only in this way did Chang''an know.


    Zhang Xiu to the whole Liangzhou situation, roughly feel clear, but in the heart doubt. Budugen is one of Xianbei, powerful, but mainly between Youzhou and Bingzhou, hardly entering Liangzhou.


    Now budugen has come to Liangzhou.


    Zhang Xiu suspected that there might be someone behind the arrangement, otherwise Bu Du would not go to Liangzhou at all. Even the di and Qiang people in Liangzhou have been pacified, so they will not make a sudden disturbance, but now they are all in chaos.


    This is surprising.


    Among them, Zhang Xiu thinks that there is a conspiracy, and there must be someone behind it.


    The army rushed all the way and finally returned to Chang''an near November. Zhang Xiu went straight back to Taiwei''s house. No, it''s already King Qin''s house. Previously, the news that Zhang Xiu was appointed king of Qin by the imperial court had already been sent back.


    Therefore, Taiwei''s residence was directly changed to Qin''s residence.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the hall, she directly summoned the six ministers under her command, as well as Gan Ning, Chen Zhi and others.


    Now, both Jia Xu and Gan Ning have withdrawn.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice, "tell me about it. How did you predict the situation in Liangzhou?"


    Jia Xu, as a minister of the Ministry of war, took the initiative to say: "I will report back to my Lord. After discussing with the other princes, I think that the turmoil in Liangzhou may have something to do with the high officials in Bingzhou. In other words, it has a certain relationship with Yuan Shao of Jizhou. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Jia Xushen said in a deep voice: "budugen people have been living in Bingzhou. The only people who can contact them are senior cadres. Even if budugen wants to enter Liangzhou, he must go through Bingzhou. "


    "Gao Gan agrees, bu Dugen can do it again."


    "The reason why Gao Gan was like this is that Yuan Shao attacked the LORD before, and Gao Gan got into Liangzhou only when he was in Bingzhou. However, Yuan Shao was a senior cadre. He did not expect that he would lose his army completely in the first World War in huaixian. "


    "After the defeat of Yuan Shaobing, bu Dugen entered Liangzhou to make trouble."


    "Of course, it''s not just budugen who caused the chaos this time, because this time budugen gathered a lot of people, including Di people in Liangzhou, local powerful people and some Qiang people."


    Jia Xu said, "it is because of all these people''s efforts that pound and Gaolan fall into Zhangye. If this is not the case, pound and Gao Lan will not fall into the trap, and even Yang Xiu will be helpless. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu agreed with Jia Xu''s analysis and said, "the next question is, how many Xianbei people, Di people and Qiang people are now living in Liangzhou?"


    Jia Xu replied, "it''s estimated that there are no less than 50000 people in his humble position. Otherwise, it will not be so. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face was quite serious.


    There are no less than 50000 enemies in Liangzhou. This is not a small number. In particular, Cao Cao has just retreated, and Yuan Shao has just retreated. If the battle of Liangzhou is not well fought, it will be a great blow to Zhang Xiu, enough to touch her whole body.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said: "in this battle, the fierce tiger army and Langya camp were dispatched to fight. Baima Yicong and Heishan army stayed in Chang''an to rest and recuperate at the same time. Sha Moke, Jia Xu and Sima Yi were accompanying him. "


    "Here it is


    Sha Moke, Jia Xu and Sima Yi all joined hands.


    Gan Ning and Chen Dao also fight each other.


    They are happy to participate in the war.As a matter of fact, now under Zhang Xiu''s command, in addition to Zhang Ya''s army and feiqiang''s army in Yizhou, Huang Zhong is temporarily in Nanyang County. After the battle effectiveness of Heishan army and baimayi army is reduced, only Langya camp and liehu army can be mobilized by Zhang Xiu.


    These two armies were hardly damaged.


    Its combat effectiveness is not weak at all.


    And today''s Langya camp and the fierce tiger army are extremely strong both in combat effectiveness and in the number of soldiers.


    After Zhang Xiu arranges, she asks Gan Ning and Chen Dao to dispatch troops. Then she goes back to the backyard to see Huang Yueying and other women. After teasing Zhang Cheng for a while, she leaves directly.


    He took Wang Yue and others and went straight to the barracks.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the barracks, Gan Ning happened to mobilize the army. With Zhang Xiu''s command, the army set out and quickly left Chang''an, all the way west.


    From Chang''an to the west, through Chencang, it entered Liangzhou smoothly. In the territory of Hanyang County, everything is peaceful, and there is no trouble for the time being. After all, Hanyang county is the headquarters of Liangzhou.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu went straight to Ji County in Hanyang county.


    When Zhang Xiuyi arrived in Jixian County, he did not go into the city to rest. Instead, he met Yang Xiu outside the city. When he saw Yang Xiu, he said in a deep voice, "dezu, what''s the latest situation in Liangzhou?"


    Now it''s December.


    It''s getting colder and freezing everywhere.


    At this time, marching is extremely difficult. But now pound and Gaolan are in crisis, and Zhang Xiu has to go to rescue them, otherwise she will just sit and watch them die.


    Yang Xiu rubbed his hands, looking very nervous, and reported: "Your Highness, now in Liangzhou, because the Baima Qiang people have been destroyed, the main forces of shaodang Qiang have been transferred away to get close to our forces. There is not much power, so Gaolan and pound are in trouble, and it is difficult to rescue them."


    "I don''t dare to help, because I''m afraid of another accident in Hanyang county. So now, I can only mobilize the strength that can be mobilized to defend Hanyang county and defend the last position. "


    "The chaos in Liangzhou was due to the direction of Zhangye. Before that, a small group of Di people kept making trouble, which attracted our troops. In the end, pound and Gao Lan led the troops to Zhangye, but they were surrounded by a large number of troops, so that they could only retreat into Zhangye. "


    "When Gao Lan and pound were in Zhangye, the powerful people all over the country suddenly killed officials and rebelled. He has made a start in his humble post, and has selected countless people who are willing to serve in it. "


    "But most of these people were killed."


    "A small part responded to the powerful."


    "So that the whole Liangzhou suddenly collapsed. In particular, the vast majority of Di people in the territory, as well as many Qiang people, caused chaos. The situation in Liangzhou has worsened. "


    Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in the end, it has evolved to the present situation. In particular, Jincheng County, Longxi County and other places fell and were occupied. There is no way to help pound, Gao Lan and others. "


    "Plop!"


    Yang Xiu knelt down on the ground and pleaded guilty: "Your Highness, please punish me for incompetence."


    Yang Xiu knows that Zhang Xiu has become the king of Qin.


    So he changed his name.

 Chapter 777

    Zhang Xiu looks at Yang Xiu kneeling on the ground. Today''s Yang Xiu is much more mature than before.


    In fact, it''s really strange that Yang Xiu didn''t do anything about Liangzhou this time. After all, Yang Xiu is very good in Liangzhou. He has steadily carried out the policy of learning from others and controlled Liangzhou steadily.


    Who knows, at the critical moment, budugen suddenly came, and also connected with the powerful of Liangzhou, so that the powerful of each county took action one after another, so that the whole situation of Liangzhou suddenly became chaotic.


    Further development, Yang Xiu can not control the situation.


    However, Yang Xiu dare to undertake, but it is quite appreciated by Zhang Xiu.


    A governor in charge of a state.


    If such people encounter things, only know to buck passing, but do not know to take responsibility, then Zhang Xiu is impossible to reuse.


    Power in hand, call the wind and the rain.


    In the same way, if you have the power in your hands, you should take the corresponding responsibility.


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Yang Xiu kowtowed to the ground with his head. Then he stood up and continued: "with the cooperation of the royal guards, we should make a general investigation about the situation of each county. In Wudu County, the name of the Di people who made trouble was Yang Teng, and the Di people here were the baimadi people. "


    "He joined forces with Ni Yong, a powerful man in Wudu County, to seize Wudu County. In Jincheng County, the Di people who made trouble were a GUI of the Di people in Xingguo, who directly captured Jincheng county. As for the rest, it is... "


    Immediately, Yang Xiu explained all the situations.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and Sima Yi and said, "what do you think about this war?"


    Sima Yi took a look at Jia Xu.


    He used to follow Jia Xu and often learned from him. Now Jia Xu is here, which is an opportunity to improve himself, so he took the lead in saying: "Your Highness, I think it''s not suitable to love war under the current situation. I should drive straight to Zhangye county to resolve the crisis of Gaolan and pound."


    Sima Yi said: "it has been quite a long time since we withdrew from Nanyang County. I don''t know what kind of predicament Gao Lan and pound are in now. After all, there is no news back. "


    For Gao Lan and pound, Sima Yi was worried.


    More than a month later, it was freezing and there was no food supply. I didn''t know if Gaolan and pound could support it.


    So his plan is to drive straight in.


    Zhang Xiu pondered over Sima Yi''s suggestion and did not immediately make a decision. Instead, she looked at Jia Xu and asked, "Wenhe, what do you think?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and replied, "as Zhong Da said, it''s no problem to drive straight in. Today''s situation really needs a long drive. But it''s a long drive in, which is different from the general long drive in. "


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Jia Xu explained: "now Zhangye is trapped and the news is blocked, so it is impossible to get the news from pound and Gaolan. Well, I can speculate that there are two situations at the moment. "


    "First, Gaolan and pound stick to Zhangye and block the attack of budugen and other Qiang, Haoqiang and Di people. They are still alive and have not been killed."


    "Second, Gao Lan and Pang Tong were killed when they insisted on Zhangye. It''s just that budugen wants to create an illusion that pound and Gaolan are still alive and attract us to rush for help. "


    "After all, there was no contact with the two."


    "There are two possibilities."


    Jia Xu''s deep eyes twinkled with wisdom. He said: "under such a premise, no matter what kind of possibility it is, bu Dugen has a possibility, that is, setting an ambush on the way to ambush us."


    "Desperate to drive straight in, easy to be ambushed."


    "So it''s necessary to drive straight in."


    "I suggest that the Lord, regardless of the situation in Wudu County and other places for the time being, go west from Hanyang county to Longxi and Jincheng, and continue to wipe out the Di people and other troublemakers along the way."


    "Kill all of you."


    "All the bodies, all on the official road."


    Jia Xu''s old cheek was full of iron and blood, and said: "it''s a slow way to kill. But the news is enough to cause shock. If pound and Gaolan have been killed, such a move will be enough to frighten budugen and even cause each other''s panic. If pound and Gao Lan are still alive, they will be more determined to resist the news. "


    "Although it''s slower, it''s more advantageous. It''s more solid and can move forward steadily."


    "Xiliang is different from the Central Plains and Han people."


    "People in Xiliang advocate iron blood and the strong."


    "The more powerful you are, the more convincing you are. On the contrary, if you show a little cowardice, you are bound to be bullied by Qiang people and Di people, and you will never succeed. "


    Jia Xushen said in a deep voice, "if you want to win, you have to kill all the way and make a way out."


    When Sima Yi heard this, her eyes were bright.


    Sure enough, ginger is old and spicy.It is worthy of being Jia Shangshu.


    Sima Yi began to reflect on the difference between his proposal and Jia Xu''s.


    But Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "what Wenhe said is very true. This battle, I mean to kill the past. Last time, they just slaughtered baimaqiang in Liangzhou. "


    "I didn''t expect that after Baima Qiang and other major Qiang people were pacified, Di people from all over the country came out to make trouble. In particular, local tyrants have come out one after another to make trouble. "


    "The promotion of the pioneers in Liangzhou has already touched the pain of the powerful, so they dare to make trouble."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of killing intention.


    He didn''t mean to keep a hand on those who made trouble.


    One word, kill!


    Yang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it''s not only to touch their pain, but also because they dared to make trouble when they saw their Lord attacked by Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and Cao Cao at the same time. If it had not been for this, I''m afraid it would not have been so. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    There is some truth in what Yang Xiu said. In today''s situation, it is true.


    Zhang Xiu was generally clear about the situation, so she stopped talking about it and asked Yang Xiu to stay in Jixian County and deal with Liangzhou''s government affairs, so as to coordinate all parties and avoid local chaos.


    But the army led by Zhang Xiu left Jixian County and began to go north.


    It''s cold in the West.


    Fortunately, in Zhang Xiu''s army, not only the soldiers were well-dressed, but also they carried coal and stone so that the soldiers could keep warm and make sure that the soldiers could keep warm when the army stopped.


    It''s cold in the border area of Northwest China. In such weather, it would be extremely difficult for the soldiers in the army without thick clothes and hats.


    It''s freezing. After a night, it''s freezing to the touch of weapons.


    It is extremely difficult to fight in cold weather.


    But there is no way. Pound and Gaolan are in crisis. If they don''t go to the rescue, the situation in Liangzhou will get worse, and the chaos in various places also needs to be calmed.


    Even if it''s freezing, it has to be done.

 Chapter 778

    Zhangye County, county city.


    Today''s Zhangye is covered with snow and ice, and the weather is extremely cold. As a whole, Zhangye lost the vitality of connecting with the western regions and became silent.


    There are also troops led by Gao Lan and pound in the city.


    Now the two men''s forces are less than 8000.


    When they entered Zhangye, there were more than 20000 soldiers. However, after entering Zhangye, he was ambushed and suffered heavy losses. Finally, Gao Lan and his soldiers retreated directly to Zhangye City. Thanks to Zhangye county magistrate''s tact, Gao Lan was able to return only when he took over in advance. Otherwise, Gao Lan and pound would be killed by Bu Dugen.


    Gao Lan and pound, with a team of eight thousand people, stuck to Zhangye and resisted the attack of budugen and others.


    Hoo Hoo!!


    The cold wind whistling, the cold wind blowing on the face, it is a bone like pain.


    On the tower, Gao Lan is on patrol.


    Gao Lan''s armor is now stained with blood and even dilapidated. The continuous fighting on the upper floor of Zhangye county made Gaolan''s armor worn out, but he never changed it from beginning to end.


    Patrol is a routine of Gaolan.


    He has to patrol to ensure the control of the tower and the stability of the garrison.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of footsteps came from not far away.


    Gaolan heard the footsteps behind him, but pound came.


    Today''s pound, like Gao Lan, is rather thin with concave cheeks, and pound''s armor is also worn. He was bearded and saw Gao Lan. He hugged his fist and said, "general!"


    Gao Lan nodded and said, "Ling Ming, what''s the matter?"


    Pound waved his hand and said, "let''s go back to the room first."


    "Good!"


    Gao Lan nodded.


    They went back to the room. It was freezing now, but they could only rub their hands. There was no coal to warm them. Because today''s Zhangye is surrounded by groups, the material supply has been quite difficult.


    Gao Lan said: "Ling Ming, you can''t say anything outside. You have to say it now."


    "We can''t hold on to food for half a month," pound said


    Gao Lan frowned.


    The so-called half a month''s grain, in fact, according to the usual way of eating, can not support even six or seven days. Previously trapped in Zhangye, Gaolan changed the food supply of soldiers in the army, no longer three meals a day.


    Most of the soldiers in the warlords ate two meals a day. But the soldiers in Zhang Xiu''s army have three meals in the morning, in the afternoon and in the evening to ensure that the soldiers can have enough food and combat effectiveness.


    More than a month ago, Gao Lan was trapped in Zhangye. Because of the lack of food, he changed the food of the soldiers in the army. He should eat three meals a day.


    Only in this way can we survive until now.


    But even so, there was less than half a month''s grain left.


    This is already quite dangerous.


    Pound''s face was solemn, and he continued: "for more than a month or two, the soldiers in the army have been losing weight one by one. It''s the same with you and me. And the soldiers were much weaker. After all, I don''t have enough power. If we don''t think of a way, I''m afraid we won''t be able to last much longer


    High brow deep lock, thinking in the heart.


    Dong! Dong!!


    All of a sudden, there was the sound of battle drums from outside the city tower.


    With the sound of the war drums, Gao Lan and Pang desao stood up and hurried out of the room. They came to the city tower and looked out of the city tower.


    Outside the city, there was an army.


    This army is composed of Xianbei army headed by budugen, Diren army and other powerful forces.


    Bu Dugen CE immediately before, he stares at the city corridor: "where is Gao Lan?"


    Gao Lan said in a deep voice: "Bu Dugen, you are out of the city with your army. You are like a girl, talking nonsense, but you don''t attack the city. What do you mean? You are the leader of a tribe, but you have the heart of thieves but not the courage. I''m Gaolan. I''m trapped in Zhangye, but you don''t dare to attack. You''re a Xianbei man. "


    Previously, budugen had attacked several times, but each attack failed, and the loss was huge.


    So now budugen is no longer attacking.


    Just surround Zhangye.


    Bu Dugen said in a deep voice: "Gaolan, you have reached a dead end now. Why do you have to stick to it again. As long as you surrender, you have everything, whether it''s delicacies, beautiful women or wealth. "


    Gao Lan said, "budugen, it''s a shame that you want to persuade me with such a bad mouth. I''m sure you won''t do it for yourself


    Budugen was biting his teeth, very angry.


    It''s just that he''s not reconciled.


    They have surrounded Zhangye for such a long time, but Gaolan and pound still stick to it. He was almost able to take the two men, and he was not willing to give up.


    He''s going to take Zhangye.


    Bu Dugen turned his eyes and continued: "listen to the people on the tower, as long as you kill Gao Lan, everyone will be promoted to three levels, and there will be endless rewards. As long as you surrender, you can have food and drink. You don''t have to live in fear any more. You don''t have to worry about whether you will be killed or not. ""Ha ha ha..."


    Gao Lan laughed.


    Although the wind and snow made his voice feel uncomfortable when he laughed, Gao Lan couldn''t help laughing. After a long time, he said, "budugen, budugen, your method is still so bad. You come every day and want to bewitch my soldiers, but from the beginning to the end, do you see any soldiers who want to surrender to you? "


    "No!"


    "No one is willing to surrender."


    "Do you know why?"


    Gao Lan''s words were very exciting, and he continued: "because you are a barbarian, a person who drinks blood like a feather. How can I surrender to a mole ant generation like you


    "If we surrender, where will our ancestors go?"


    "If we surrender, how do you face your wife and children?"


    "If we surrender, how do you face the Taiwei?"


    "What''s more, the reason why you are able to trap us in Zhangye today is not how powerful you are. It''s because you have united so many people to ambush us that we have the present situation."


    Gao Lan tossed the ground and said in a voice: "the news of Liangzhou must have already spread. Taiwei''s army will soon reach Liangzhou. As long as the Taiwei''s troops are killed, you will surely die. "


    "Ridiculous!"


    At this time, there was a strong voice.


    A middle-aged man came out.


    At a glance, Gao Lan recognized the man. This person is no other than Feng Ji. After all, Gao Lan used to work under Yuan Shao''s command, so he knew Feng Ji.


    You know, Fengji was a counselor under Yuan Shao.


    Feng Ji raised his head, looked at Gao Lan, threw the ground and said in a voice: "Gao Lan, the thief who carried the Lord, do you still know me?"


    Gao Lan said coldly, "you are famous in every discipline. How can I not know you. As for you saying that Gaolan is a traitor, it''s a bit of a joke. "


    "In the past, Yuan Shao led his troops to retreat in the first battle in Hanoi County, leaving me to fight to the death."


    "I hold high and never betray."


    "Yuan Shao gave up on me first, but I never failed Yuan Shao. I always gave up on Yuan Shao. I gave up only after Yuan Shao was forced to withdraw for an hour. "


    "I didn''t turn my back on Yuan Shao. It was Yuan Shao who bore me. Now, it''s shameful of you to say that I am a traitor. What''s more, when you met Ji, you were in Hanoi county


    "If it wasn''t for me to hold down Taiwei''s soldiers, there would be no room for you to bark now."


    Gao Lan''s words were sharp and said, "I''m your benefactor. Is that how you treat your benefactor now? I''m not ashamed of you for being a man of discipline. "


    At the same time, his face changed greatly.


    In fact, he was behind the scenes in the war in Liangzhou. It''s far from enough to rely solely on steps to get to the root. We have to have every discipline to give us some advice.


    Unfortunately, Fengji wanted to take Zhangye, but he couldn''t take it.

 Chapter 779

    Feng Ji''s big sleeve flicked and said: "Gao Lan, you can say it with your tongue shining. In the end, it can''t change the fact that you are about to lose. Now that you are in Zhangye, there is not enough food and equipment. You can''t hold on for long. Now you are waiting for Zhang Xiu to save you, but in fact, you don''t know that the war in the Central Plains has changed greatly. "


    Gao Lan''s eyes narrowed and he didn''t answer.


    Because at the moment, this may be Feng Ji''s words, deliberately to hit him.


    When Ji saw that Gao Lan didn''t cooperate, he took the initiative and said, "Gao Lan, do you know that when Zhang Xiu captured Hanzhong and attacked Liu Zhang, a herdsman in Yizhou, Liu Zhang sent someone to Cao Cao for help."


    "Finally, we won''t fight with Cao Gong."


    "The Lord, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, together, attacked Zhang Xiu. In addition, the forces of Liu Zhang in Yizhou, a full four armies, attack Zhang Xiu together


    Feng Ji said: "today''s Zhang Xiu''s scalp will be torn. Even if Zhang Xiu can survive, it''s still two questions. Under such circumstances, if you want to wait for Zhang Xiu''s reinforcements, it''s a fool''s dream. "


    WOW!!


    On the tower, the soldiers were in an uproar.


    They did not expect to suddenly hear such news.


    It''s really shocking.


    You should know that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are all the top princes in the world. Such people suddenly unite to attack Zhang Xiu. How can the soldiers not worry.


    When Feng Ji heard the noise of the city floor, he began to smile.


    Originally, he was not going to show up.


    He prefers to hide behind the scenes.


    But bu Dugen was always unable to break Zhangye, which made Fengji a little anxious. That''s why he came out today, intending to defeat the morale of Gaolan''s soldiers and prepare to take Zhangye. Only by Taking Zhangye can the whole Liangzhou be swept.


    At that time, the rear of Zhang Xiu caught fire, and the front was attacked, so Zhang Xiu would be defeated.


    Gaolan''s face also changed greatly, but in an instant, he was calm again.


    He turned his head quickly. After a moment, he said, "no matter what you say is true or false, even if the Lord faces Liu Zhang, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time, what''s his fear?"


    "Did Liu Zhang threaten the Lord?"


    "No!"


    "If Liu Zhang is a threat to his Lord, he doesn''t have to ask Cao Cao for help. It''s not bad that Liu Zhang can protect himself under the Lord''s attack. It''s ridiculous to attack him. "


    "As for Yuan Shao, there was a threat from Gongsun Zan in Youzhou to the north. In the first battle of Hongnong and Hanoi, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the generals under Yuan Shao, were killed, and his son Yuan Tan also died in Hanoi. "


    "Yuan Shao was afraid of being beaten by the Lord."


    "Only Yuan Shao, he still needs to attack the Lord again. This is not revenge. This is death."


    "Besides, Cao Cao was defeated like a mountain when he was in Nanyang County in the past. Now the Lord has sent troops to fight against Cao Cao again. It''s as easy as a palm to defeat him. "


    "As for Liu Bei, who has ever heard of such a person? An unknown person with insufficient troops and weak combat effectiveness who still wants to attack the Lord is just making up for the number. "


    Gao Lan said: "you say that there are several armies to attack the Lord. In fact, when you think about it, these people used to be defeated by the Lord. They were all mobs. "


    "Such a group of people still want to defeat the Lord. That''s a fool''s dream."


    "I don''t believe in the defeat of the guild. Even if the Lord''s forces were concentrated on attacking Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, I can still guard Zhangye without reinforcements. "


    Gao Lan''s strong refutation.


    His face darkened when he met Ji.


    He didn''t expect that Gao Lan''s retort was so sharp and his mouth was so powerful.


    Gao Lan turned to look at the soldiers on the upper floor of the city and said in a loud voice, "son Lang, I want to ask you a question. Since the rise of Nanyang County, Taiwei has been fighting in the north and south. Has he ever been defeated? "


    Everyone was silent and thought carefully.


    "No!"


    In the crowd, the first people to shout.


    "No!"


    "No!"


    One after another, the cry echoed on the tower. Although the soldiers were thin, they had their own spirit. When they thought of Zhang Xiu''s great achievements in war, they had more confidence.


    Panic heart, also stable.


    Yes!


    Zhang Xiu fought in the north and south, facing numerous problems, and never lost.


    Zhang Xiu is the God of war!


    Now, Zhang Xiu will not be defeated.


    As the shouting continued, the panicked soldiers quickly settled down. Such a belief, seemingly blind, is actually based on Zhang Xiu''s victory after victory.


    Without this victory, the soldiers in the army would not have such blind faith.


    Because Zhang Xiu has never been defeated!Gao Lan waited for the soldiers'' cry to subside, and then said again, "yes, Taiwei has never been defeated up to now. In this battle, I still believe that Taiwei will not be defeated, and Taiwei will still win. "


    "So I believe that after Taiwei defeats the enemy, he will definitely return and come to Liangzhou for help. We have persisted for such a long time. Should we give up at the last moment? "


    "No, we will never give up."


    Gao Lan clenched his teeth and said, "I will never give up at any time. I''m willing to live and die with Zhangye, and I''m willing to fight to the end. "


    "Fight to the end!"


    On the tower of the city, there were soldiers shouting again.


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers, constantly shouting, constantly shouting.


    Its momentum is incomparably magnificent.


    Its momentum soars to the sky.


    Seeing this scene, Feng Ji looks very blue. His original intention was to attack the morale of Gaolan''s soldiers. However, he did not expect that in turn, Gaolan would be helped and let Gaolan take the opportunity to cheer up the soldiers. As a result, the morale of the city guarding taxis would be even higher.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, not far from Fengji, some soldiers came.


    When the soldier came to Fengji, he handed a letter to him, reporting: "military commander, the urgent report."


    After Feng Ji took over, he waved his hand to let the soldiers back down. He opened the letter and scanned it quickly. When Fengji finished watching the fire, his face was cold and solemn, and his eyes were very solemn.


    It''s over!


    Here comes Zhang Xiu!


    The letter is about Yuan Shao''s defeat and Zhang Xiu''s sending troops back to Liangzhou. Feng Ji never thought that Zhang Xiu could still win in the face of yuan, Cao and Liu''s three forces.


    Budugen asked, "what''s the news, every military adviser?"


    Feng Ji said: "Zhang Xiu learned that the war happened in Liangzhou. Now she is leading the army to Liangzhou. For the time being, Zhang Xiu has not entered Longxi County. Now Zhang Xiu is in Hanyang county. "


    Bu Dugen said in a deep voice, "does the appearance of Zhang Xiu mean that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have defeated Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Feng Ji answered directly.


    After a pause, Feng Ji said: "but in today''s situation, although Zhang Xiu enters Liangzhou, she may not be able to win. First, it''s freezing now, which is not conducive to the March. Zhang Xiu''s army is advancing, braved the severe cold, wind and snow, it''s very hard. In this way, he doesn''t have the advantage of time. "


    "Second, Zhang Xiu does not understand the situation of Liangzhou and does not occupy the advantage of geographical advantage; third, along the way, Zhang Xiu will encounter resistance from all over the country, especially from the local powerful and Di people and Qiang people, which will constantly weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength."


    "In this war, Zhang Xiu did not occupy the right time, the right place, and the right people, even if he waved his army into the war. But in the end, it must be defeated. Just like Gao Lan and pound before, they will also be defeated. "


    Fengji said in a deep voice: "budugen, now is your chance. If you defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, you can take Liangzhou as a foothold. At that time, you can compete with sully and Kirby


    When budugen heard this, he was also thinking.


    It seems that every discipline makes sense.


    At the moment of hearing Zhang Xiu''s killing, bu Dugen had a little idea that he wanted to withdraw directly. However, after listening to Feng Ji''s words, he made up his mind to prepare for the first World War.


    After all, it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to go to Liangzhou.

 Chapter 780

    Bu Dugen nodded and solemnly said, "what Mr. Feng said is true. This battle will be fought to the end."


    When Ji heard the speech, his heart was set and he said, "just understand."


    After persuading budugen, Fengji looked at the rest of the powerful people and said in a deep voice: "everyone, at this stage, the bow and arrow have come out of the string, and there is no chance to turn around."


    "Gentlemen, there is no turning back now. We have to fight to the end."


    "If I lose, I can leave Liangzhou. Similarly, if budugen fails, he can leave Liangzhou and return to Bingzhou. But what about you? You are all local people in Liangzhou. We can''t evacuate. "


    Fengji said, "because this is your home. Now, it''s all about attack. "


    "Listen to Mr. Feng."


    Among the strong and powerful, a man with a big figure spoke.


    His name is Jiang He. He came from a powerful family in Liangzhou. He clenched his fist and said in a deep voice: "in this battle, we should take advantage of Zhang Xiu''s not coming to Weiwu county to win Gaolan and pound in the city as soon as possible."


    Feng Ji said, "what the master Jiang said is true."


    After a pause, Feng Ji said: "since that''s the case, don''t delay any more and get ready to attack. When we attack Zhangye, even if it is a waste of troops, it will cost us a lot of money. "


    "Herald, beat the drum!"


    Step root gave the order.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war are ringing in the cold wind.


    The sound of the war drums was heard far away in the wind and snow. The soldiers of budugen, the local Di people and the powerful men, all cheered up and gave orders to attack without delay.


    "Kill


    The cry of death resounded through the battlefield.


    Nearly ten thousand soldiers went to the castle.


    Ladder, well lane car, crash, etc., began to move forward, began to attack the city of Zhangye.


    Gao Lan didn''t have any impatience when he saw the enemy killed. Now that he wants to fight to the end, he will not be weak. He immediately arranged for his soldiers to fight back.


    Now there are no big stones in the city. So even if it''s big, it''s useless. The number of bows and arrows is also limited. There is no unlimited supply.


    Gao Lan yelled: "wait a moment, wait for the other side to get close, and then shoot the arrow. Let me see it."


    Every Archer should be alert and be careful.


    Distance, a little closer.


    When the soldiers of Xianbei, Diren, Qiang, and the private soldiers of powerful families were less than 60 steps away from the tower, more than 100 archers on the tower quickly drew their bows and arched.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bow and arrow, constantly shot out.


    After hundreds of bows and arrows passed in the air, in a twinkling of an eye, they were in front of the soldiers who were rushing forward. It''s just that there are too few more than a hundred bows and arrows. Even if every bow and arrow hits the enemy, it doesn''t cause much impact.


    The Qiang, Di and Xianbei soldiers are still moving forward.


    It''s getting closer and closer to the downstairs of the city.


    Gao Lan looks at such a scene, but there is no change in his expression. All this was expected. Especially others have been engaged in several battles with the coalition led by budugen. Under such circumstances, it is extremely normal for the other side to approach.


    Although some of the casualties of the Xianbei allied forces were reported, a large number of soldiers were close to the city floor soon.


    The cry of killing began. One by one, the Allied soldiers began to climb up the city.


    These people, want to kill immediately.


    Gao Lan''s face was calm and calm. He asked the soldiers to shoot the enemy with bows and arrows from a long distance, and then sprinkling them with logs and boiling water from a short distance to stop the attacking coalition soldiers.


    A lot of coalition soldiers were killed and wounded, and eventually someone rushed to the city tower.


    This is the moment for pound.


    Pound, with a long knife and a few soldiers, wandered up and down the castle, killing the Allied enemies who rushed up the castle.


    Gaolan and pound are working together.


    Gao Lan is responsible for directing the soldiers to resist, and pound is responsible for the killing upstairs. The fighting has been going on. As time goes by, more and more coalition soldiers are killed and wounded.


    Although Gao Lan also had soldiers killed and injured, he was on the defensive side after all, so he could stick to it.


    A day is fleeting.


    By evening, it was dark, and the coalition led by budugen had withdrawn.


    Gao Lan was relieved at this time.


    Another day.


    Another day.


    Gao Lan ordered his soldiers to clean up the battlefields on the top of the city. In addition, he opened the gate of the city and sent a few soldiers out of the city to collect bows, arrows and weapons that could be used when they fell on the ground outside the city.


    Today''s lack of equipment, Gaolan must be recycled, so as to stick to a longer time.


    After arranging things on the city floor, Gao Lan and pound go back to their room.


    Pound sighed: "Lao Gao, to tell you the truth, we don''t have much food now. When we mentioned this problem earlier, because of the war drums, we resisted budugen again. Now this problem has to be solved. In fact, it''s not only grain, but also our weapons. ""It''s impossible!"


    Gao Lan clenched his teeth and said, "Ling Ming, if we stay in Zhangye, we can hold back the army of budugen. If we leave, we will be chased and killed. There are so many encirclement outside that I''m afraid we can''t kill them, so we have to stick to them. "


    "I know that!"


    Pound said, "we are going to stick to it now. In any case, we have to wait for the Lord to block the attack of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others before we can breathe a sigh of relief. "


    After a pause, pound said, "Lao Gao, do you think the Lord can block the Allied forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao?"


    Gao Lan said with a smile, "why don''t you have confidence in your master?"


    Pound said: "not really. It''s just that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are outstanding people. It''s not easy for them to fight back when they unite. It''s hard to avoid some worries. "


    Gao Lan said: "don''t worry, I believe in my Lord. As I said, my Lord has fought countless battles and never been defeated. Today, the Lord can also win


    Pound nodded.


    Immediately, pound said, "I actually have an idea about food."


    Gao Lan said, "what do you think?"


    Pound replied, "it''s very simple. Let''s collect food in the city. It''s called recruiting grain, but it''s actually apportioning. As long as it is the people in Zhangye City, they all share the grain. In today''s situation, as long as we have more food, we have a chance to survive. If there is no food, it is difficult for a skillful woman to cook without food. "


    "No way!"


    Gao Lan shook his head and said firmly: "Ling Ming, the reason why we have been able to keep Zhangye is that we have treated the people well. We have never apportioned food, and we have never forcibly taken people as soldiers."


    "If we make a forced apportionment, we will lose people''s support in the city at that time. Once there is a disturbance in the city, it will not be good. What''s more, there has never been such a thing under the Lord''s command, and this case can''t be opened. "


    Gao Lan directly rejected Pound''s request.


    "Alas..."


    Pound sighed.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier entered, saluted respectfully and said, "general, Nie Shen asked to see you."


    "Please


    Gao Lan nodded and answered.

 Chapter 781

    Pound thought for a moment and then doubted: "Nie Shen is the magistrate of Zhangye county. He was born in a poor family, and he was also an official selected by Yang Cishi. This person''s ability and wind rating have always been good. He has been pacifying the people and stabilizing the situation in the city. Now, what is he doing here? "


    Gao Lan said, "you can see it at first sight!"


    "Hopefully, it''s good news," pound said


    After a while, Nie Shen strode forward.


    Nie Shen is in his early thirties. He used to be a teacher in the countryside. Even if some ability, but no way, no identity, so can not become an official.


    Yang Xiu started his career in Liangzhou. Nie Shen took part in the examination. After passing the examination, he was finally appointed as the magistrate of Zhangye county.


    During his term of office, Nie Shen worked hard.


    Its evaluation is very good.


    Nie Shen bows to Gao Lan and pound. He is just a very ordinary magistrate, and his official position is far inferior to that of Gao Lan and pound.


    Gao Lan said: "the magistrate of Nie county is here. I don''t know what''s important?"


    Nie Shen said in a deep voice: "during this period of time, Xianbei, Di and Qiang people were in trouble. General Gao and general Pang led their troops to resist, and they consumed a lot of food and weapons. In particular, Zhangye''s own Treasury did not have much food. "


    "Considering the lack of food and equipment, during this period of time, the lower officials told the people in the city and publicized everywhere. In the end, many people donated food and some famous families donated weapons."


    "Today, a lot of people have raised ten thousand stones of grain, as well as a number of bows and arrows and armor. All the materials have been delivered to the lower floor of the city. Please accept them. "


    Nie Shen''s face is soft, giving people the feeling of spring breeze.


    But he is a very tough man.


    Ten thousand stone grain is not much. In the normal days of Gaolan, if more than 8000 soldiers were fed three meals a day, that is, about a month, they would eat up all the grain.


    But now, it''s food. For today''s Gaolan, it''s enough to last two or three months.


    It''s just in time for rain.


    With this grain, Gaolan will have the opportunity to continue to resist.


    Gao Lan was very happy. He stood up, clasped his hands, and said, "for us, the grain of Nie county magistrate is timely rain. This batch of grain came in time. Thank you. Thank you


    Nie Shen shook his head and said, "when the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Nie Shen has no great ability to help Gao general Zhen Shoucheng pool. Therefore, we can only do some chores. "


    Gao Lan said: "Nie county magistrate is modest."


    Nie Shen said, "General Gao, please follow me. The food is in the tower."


    "Please


    Gao Lan stood up and walked out of the room with pound.


    However, Pound''s heart, but there is a trace of vigilance, worried about fraud, so from the beginning to the end, Pound''s hand, has been pressed in the waist of the hilt. Once anything happens, pound will respond immediately.


    They walked out of the room and went down to the city tower. There were carriages and carriages in the city, all with bags of grain. Now the Yamen officer in charge of transportation is unloading all the grain.


    Gao Lan was very excited.


    There is no way out.


    At such a critical juncture, Nie Shen''s food was too helpful to them.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, in the streets of the city, suddenly came the sound of rapid footsteps.


    Not far away, a group of people came.


    These people come here in different clothes. Some are young and some are very thin. They show different mental outlook one by one. The leader was a gray haired old man of some age.


    He was walking on crutches.


    Seeing the visitor, Nie Shen said, "General Gao, the old man in charge, is named Gao Qiu. This man has a good reputation in Zhangye and is a businessman in Zhangye. It''s quite good to say that Yang Cishi was a scholar and Gao Qiu''s two sons, one of whom was a magistrate in the county, and the other went directly to the Cishi''s office. "


    Gao Lan nodded and waited quietly.


    Not long after, Gao Qiu came to Gao Lan and said, "old Gao Qiu, see General Gao Gao."


    Gao Lan said, "the old man is polite. I don''t know what it means that the old man brings so many people here."


    Gao Qiu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "I heard that Qiang people, Haoqiang people and Xianbei people were making trouble. Now they are attacking the county. Only by relying on General Gao''s presence in the town can Zhangye be immune from any crime. "


    "Now that the enemy is powerful, after General Gao has resisted for more than a month, his troops are gradually insufficient. In order to solve the problem of insufficient military strength, Lao Jiu traveled all over the country and raised these 4000 people. "


    "Of these 4000, there are more than 800 private soldiers of the Gao family. In addition, there are more than 3200 people in Zhangye City. They do not want their homes to be harmed or their good days to be destroyed. They all stand up to defend Zhangye. "


    Gao Qiu said, "so these people come here, and they all obey General Gao''s instructions.""Thank you, Mr. Gao!"


    When Gao Lan listened to it, he changed his address to Gao Qiu.


    Because in today''s situation, with 4000 more troops, there is more hope to be stationed in the city. There was food, there were soldiers, and there were some equipment.


    Gao Lan is full of confidence in this battle.


    He has the advantage of geographical advantages, more advantages of people and, in addition, the cold weather is not conducive to the advance of troops, so he will have more confidence in the next battle.


    Gao Qiu left without delay. Nie Shen left after handing over the grain. Gao Lan and pound took the food and arranged for all the soldiers before they went back to the room above the city.


    Pound said in a deep voice: "Lao Gao, the current situation is good for us. But I''m still worried. I''m not worried about Nie Shen, I''m just worried about Gao Qiu. Will his 4000 people have any problems. If some of these people make trouble when we fight, I''m afraid it will affect the overall situation. "


    Gao Lan said: "reasonably speaking, there should be no problem. After all, Gao Qiu''s sons are all the winners of a successful career. If they want to keep their hard won official posts, they can only stand with us. "


    However, there is no reason for you to think about it. Now, in this situation, we must be careful of everything, and we can''t relax at all. You should keep a close watch on these four thousand soldiers and use them carefully to avoid problems. "


    "I understand," said pound


    After a pause, pound said again, "you said that in our present situation, Nie Shen asked the people to raise food and grass, Gao Qiu recruited the people and sent us soldiers. Under such circumstances, is it more helpful? "


    "Of course


    Gao Lan said with a smile: "according to the master''s plan, Yang Cishi''s drastic reform in Liangzhou is to continuously crack down on bandits and bandits, suppress the Qiang people and the enemy, which is of great help to the people of Liangzhou."


    "So there is support."


    "In the same way, they have offended countless people. Of course, the people they offended are the powerful, not the ordinary people. That''s why this counterattack is so powerful. "


    Gao Lan said: "this is also the reason why we were suddenly calculated, so that we fell into Zhangye."


    Pound said: "I hope the Lord can solve the threat of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao as soon as possible, so that we can get rid of the current predicament as soon as possible. It''s hard to be trapped all the time. If it wasn''t for the shortage of troops, I''d like to take the army and fight with budugen. "


    Gao Lan said, "your words are exactly what I want to say. But I always believe that the guild will win. Because the Lord has always been invincible and invincible on the battlefield. "


    Pound nodded solemnly.


    Two people look at each other, faces have a bright smile. Because they always believe that Zhang Xiu will win in the end, and they will be able to keep the clouds open and see the moon.

 Chapter 782

    Longxi County, Didao county.


    This is the capital of Longxi County, but now Longxi County has been occupied by Di people and powerful people.


    The Di people who occupy Longxi County are called Qiang Duan. This man is a clan leader of Di people. His strength is not weak. He has nearly ten thousand soldiers. And the powerful clan leader who combined with qiangtuan was named Huangfu min.


    Huangfu''s family is quite famous in Xiliang.


    The most famous person is Huangfu song in the late Han Dynasty. However, Huangfu min''s family, though the same as Huangfu song''s, has long been separated.


    This is the Huangfu family in Longxi, which has nothing to do with anding Huangfu family where Huangfu song lived.


    Huangfumin was in his early 40s and was a powerful man in Longxi. Under Yang Xiu''s various policies, the Huangfu family was constantly suppressed, and even the power of the family gradually weakened. Under such circumstances, all of a sudden, Fengji''s people lobbied, and finally huangfumin and qiangtuan United.


    After Gaolan and pound were trapped in Zhangye, Huangfu Minhe and qiangtuan killed the prefect of Longxi, and then seized the counties and took them as their own.


    In this way, Huangfu min and qiangtuan occupied Longxi.


    The Huangfu family in the city.


    When huangfumin was warming himself in his room, the housekeeper of his family rushed in and reported: "master, I have the latest war news. It''s from Hanyang county."


    Huangfu min took it in his spare time. After reading it carefully, suddenly, his face was shocked.


    No!


    It''s not good!


    Zhang Xiu came with a large army.


    In his surprise, all the letters in his hand fell to the ground.


    The housekeeper picked it up and shivered when he saw the contents of the letter. The housekeeper was a little worried and said, "master, Zhang xiumingming was attacked by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Now she has killed her back and even went to Longxi County to kill her. What shall we do?"


    When talking, the housekeeper is a little bit unskillful.


    No one thought that Zhang Xiu would leave the front line so quickly. No matter huangfumin or the other counties, they all believed that Zhang Xiu would not be able to withdraw when he was attacked by Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.


    Now, it''s back.


    It''s amazing.


    Huang Fumin was silent for a long time. Then he recovered his composure and said, "arrange people and inform Qiang Duan immediately."


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper went to inform immediately.


    Huangfumin sat alone in the room, his face changed again and again. He never thought that it would be like this. Zhang Xiu suddenly entered Liangzhou, disrupting all the arrangements.


    Huangfumin picked up the letter carefully and read it again. The letter said that Zhang Xiu''s troops included liehu army and Langya camp. It also said that Zhang Xiu left Jixian County and went to Longxi County.


    "Damn, from Hanyang County, you can enter Weiwu county directly. Although the road is difficult, you can go directly. You have to come to Longxi County. Zhang Xiu, you are really blind! "


    Huang Fumin murmured angrily.


    In the current situation, he is extremely worried. But even if they were worried, in today''s situation, they killed the officials who had been promoted by Yang Xiu, and there was no turning back.


    There''s only one way to get to the black.


    Not much time, the strong end into the room. Qiang Duan is nearly 30 years old. In his prime of life, he has loose hair and a fur coat, wrapping himself tightly.


    Qiang Duan sat down with a smile and asked, "what can I do for you, Mr. Huangfu?"


    Huangfumin did not hide the news, directly said that Zhang Xiu killed. Sure enough, Qiang Duan''s face changed greatly after hearing this, and he soon regained his composure.


    After explaining the general situation, Huang Fumin finally said, "chieftain of qiangtuan clan, we have no way back. If you retreat, everything you and I have now will be lost. Now, it''s just resistance. But I think about it. We have to resist. In fact, there is no way


    "What can you do?" he said


    Huangfu Min said in a deep voice: "there are nearly ten thousand people under the clan leader of qiangtuan, and there are ten thousand people in my hands. We have twenty thousand soldiers. It''s not too difficult for our troops to guard Didao County in this cold weather. "


    "What''s more, it''s very difficult for Zhang Xiu to get on the road in the snow. Now, we just need to procrastinate. So what I mean is to send orders to all the counties and let the people in all the counties stop her step by step, constantly weakening her strength. "


    "In this way, we can win."


    Huangfumin said, "there are my people and your people in every county. What I mean is that we cooperate with each other and give orders to all the people in our counties to resist. What do you think? "


    "No problem!" he nodded


    Huangfu Min said, "that''s good!"


    After the two agreed, they each ordered that their men prepare to resist along the way. After this order was passed on, the border between Longxi County and Hanyang county was Xiangwu county.Xiangwu county is the easternmost County in Longxi.


    Today''s county magistrate, named Huangfu Cheng, is the lineage of Huangfu min.


    He was arranged by huangfumin.


    Lei Zhen is the leader of the Di people in Xiangwu county. He is a leader of the tribe and has more than 1000 people under his command.


    After meeting and discussing with each other, they both decided to stick to it.


    When huangfucheng and leizhen were ready to defend themselves, the army led by Zhang Xiu had entered Xiangwu county. Along the way, today''s Longxi County is in complete chaos, without the previous peace.


    Huangfu inherited his ordinary ability. As soon as he captured Xiangwu County, he began to plunder money and levy taxes, so that the people in Xiangwu county had a hard time.


    Especially Lei Zhen.


    The Di people where Lei Zhen lived not only ate and drank freely in the city, but also robbed everywhere, which increased the burden of the people and made the people in Xiangwu County miserable.


    For the people of Xiangwu County, they all miss the good days.


    Yang Xiu, as an assassin, has been in peace all over the country.


    They can live in peace.


    But now they can''t. many people either hide or flee.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu rushed all the way.


    This road did not encounter any resistance, very smooth, they arrived outside Xiangwu county. In today''s Xiangwu County, the gate is closed, while huangfucheng and leizhen, both standing on the city tower, have mobilized their own soldiers to resist.


    After all, they have a certain amount of strength.


    With the help of the firmness of the city, they think they have a certain degree of assurance.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the tower of Xiangwu County, without any words, directly ordered the attack. With the sound of war drums, the fierce tiger army under the command of Ganning, carrying the cloud ladder, Jinglan car, crash and so on, launched a mighty attack.


    This offensive is ferocious.


    At the beginning, huangfucheng was still able to resist, but in less than a quarter of an hour, there were countless Qin soldiers killed on the top of the city and began to cover up.


    This situation caught Huang Fucheng and Lei Zhen by surprise.


    How is that possible?


    Zhang Xiu''s army is too strong. In particular, Zhang xiudu still had a large army outside the city, and did not use it. Under such circumstances, both huangfucheng and leizhen could not escape and could not leave at all.


    "Surrender, we are willing to surrender!"


    Seeing this, Huangfu immediately chose to surrender to save his life.


    There is no need to worry about firewood!


    "Surrender, we surrender too!"


    When Lei Zhen saw this, he threw away his weapon decisively and chose to surrender directly.


    There are huangfucheng and leizhen surrender, one by one belong to the two soldiers, constantly kneeling on the ground to surrender.


    The war lasted less than half an hour. Apart from the soldiers killed, more than 1300 of the troops under Huang Fucheng and Lei Zhen surrendered and were all detained.


    Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Lord, in this siege, we lost more than 430 soldiers, killed more than 700 people and captured more than 1300 people. What about all the prisoners? "


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "all the prisoners will be put aside at the gate of the city for the people to visit."


    Zhang Xiu was determined to kill the Di people and the powerful people who made trouble.


    If you don''t kill, it''s not enough to frighten people.


    If you don''t kill, it''s not enough to avenge.


    If we don''t kill, it''s not enough to appease the people''s grievances.

 Chapter 783

    With Zhang Xiu''s order, Gan Ning immediately carried out the order. The soldiers raised their swords and killed the prisoners. Some of these prisoners were private soldiers of Huangfu family, and some were di people under qiangtuan''s command.


    Now, after surrendering one by one and throwing away their weapons, they have no combat effectiveness at all. They were slaughtered by the fierce tiger army and ran around, but they could not change their fate.


    When Lei Zhen saw him, he cried out for mercy.


    But in the end, he was still killed.


    Huangfucheng also begged for mercy, saying that he knew something about Longxi County. However, under the merciless blade of the soldiers, they were killed directly.


    A corpse, lying on the ground.


    Head by head, in order.


    None of the Di people and the powerful soldiers who made trouble escaped and were killed. All the bodies are at the gate of the city.


    Under the wind and snow, the blood on the ground was gradually covered, but the dead bodies still stood outside the city, and gradually became ice sculptures. We can see bodies and heads.


    Zhang Xiu orders Ganning to lead troops into the city, collect the grain and money from the county government, and take away the money and food from the leizhendi tribe, and then arrange for people to issue a placatory notice.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu leads the army to leave.


    This time, Zhang Xiu wiped out the troops in Xiangwu County, and collected about 30000 stones of grain, as well as countless money and treasures. Such money is enough to reward the soldiers in the army and make them fight fiercely.


    But about the new magistrate, Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of it. Yang Xiu is in the rear of the town. When Xiangwu county is pacified, Yang Xiu will appoint a new magistrate soon.


    In fact, under normal circumstances, all the prefects and county magistrates in Liangzhou are appointed from Chang''an and arranged by Chang''an. However, in extraordinary times, it is Yang Xiu who arranges to perform in Chang''an.


    Such a thing, there will be no one stuck to create difficulties.


    After Zhang Xiu left Xiangwu County, the whole people of Xiangwu County suddenly became boiling. When people learned that Lei Zhen had been killed and that huangfucheng had been killed, they went out one by one to celebrate.


    In particular, the notice says that huangfucheng and leizhen have been killed and killed outside the morgue city. More and more people gathered at the gate to observe the corpses.


    Once, the people who hid are now out.


    Once upon a time, many of the people who left came back.


    The faces of the people were filled with joy.


    "Well done, Lei Zhen finally died."


    "This Lei Zhen once brought people into my house and robbed the only old hen left in my house. At that time, my daughter went out. If you''re at home, I''m afraid you can''t keep your daughter. "


    "Lei Zhen, damn it


    "Huangfucheng is not a good thing either. Huangfucheng and leizhen are in collusion and should be killed. Both of them are damned. "


    "Zhang Taiwei killed well!"


    "Bullshit, it''s not Taiwei, it''s the king of Qin. The imperial court issued an imperial edict in person to appoint Taiwei as the king of Qin. We King Qin are good people. We know these damned evil spirits. If we don''t kill them, they will do harm to people, so we kill them all.


    "Well done


    ¡­¡­


    Countless people are talking about it.


    There is only joy in the hearts of the people.


    Because when Lei Zhen and Huang Fucheng stayed in Xiangwu County, they harmed countless people and caused countless families to die. Under such a premise, there are countless people who wish Lei Zhen and Huangfu would die.


    The news spread quickly.


    The news went to Wudu County, and also to Longxi counties. The first one was Zhang county.


    Zhang county is located in the northwest of Xiangwu county.


    Now the magistrate of Zhang county is a man named Chen Meng. He used to be a minister of the Huangfu family. As a minister of the Huangfu family, Chen Meng had to be a magistrate of Zhang county.


    But Zhang county is not very rich.


    There are not many people in the territory. So there was no strong Di leader in Zhangxian.


    County Hall.


    When Chen Meng got the news from Xiangwu County, he turned pale with fright. When Zhang Xiuyi arrived in Xiangwu County, after conquering Xiangwu County, he killed all the people and left their bodies at the gate of the city.


    It''s shocking to see such a killing.


    Chen Meng''s military strength is only over 1000. After all, Zhang county is not big. It is impossible for Chen Meng to resist Zhang Xiu''s army, so the first thought in his mind is to withdraw immediately and return to Longxi County. But Chen Meng thought about it. Now that Zhang Xiu''s army is coming, I''m afraid the Huangfu family can''t keep it. After all, Zhang Xiu is very powerful.


    "What if you surrender?"


    Chen Meng''s heart gave birth to this idea. Although he also eliminated dissidents and suppressed local officials during his stay in Zhangxian County, he did not plunder the people after all and believed that if he surrendered, he would still have a chance of survival.


    "All of them were killed by Lei Zhen."


    Chen Meng''s heart began to refute."Go away!"


    Chen Meng finally made a decision.


    Immediately, Chen Meng gave an order to mobilize his soldiers to retreat. However, during the retreat, Chen Meng had many possessions, boxes of money and treasures in the county government.


    It takes time to carry these treasures.


    He can''t manage the rest of the grain.


    It took Chen mengcai more than half a day to arrange everything. Then he took his family members and soldiers to escort all the materials out of the county government to the outside of the city.


    He just walked out of the north gate less than half an hour, but there was a cavalry in the rear quickly chasing.


    This cavalry has 3000 people.


    He was the cavalry of Langya camp, and Chen Dao was the leader.


    When Chen Dao heard the news of Chen Meng''s retreat, he took his cavalry to catch up with him. As a matter of fact, if Chen Meng did not delay for more than half a day, he might withdraw first.


    But he delayed more than half a day, leading to the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Cavalry pursuit, extremely fast.


    The roaring sound of horse''s hooves resounded through the world.


    The whole ground seemed to vibrate slightly. The black cavalry yelled and went straight to Chen Meng''s team. When Chen Meng saw the cavalry killed in the rear, he opened his eyes and looked desperate.


    He gave a loud order for his soldiers to delay and resist, while he took the men with him to leave. But in front of the cavalry of Langya camp, none of them escaped and all of them were killed.


    Chen Meng, who escaped, did not run away either.


    Chen Dao takes people to catch up with him. He kills Chen Meng and shoots him.


    Everyone, including Chen Meng, was killed.


    None of them were left.


    After these people were killed, Chen Dao arranged for his soldiers to carry all the bodies back to the outside of the county of Zhang county, where they were still the heads of the owls, and then laid them on the front gate of the county.


    This practice is still consistent.


    Still killing with iron blood.


    This is Jia Xu''s suggestion. It''s frightening to kill him with iron and blood.


    Although it will be troublesome at the beginning, the continuous killing will have a huge impact after the news is brewing and fermenting, which can frighten all the troublemakers in Longxi County and even in Liangzhou.


    Zhang Xiu also spent a little time in Zhangxian county without much delay.


    He took his money and food and went on his way. This way to Didao County, the capital of Longxi County, is not far. You only need to go to Shouyang County, and then you can go north to Didao county to attack qiangtuan and huangfumin in Didao county.

 Chapter 784

    When Zhang Xiu went to Shouyang County with the army, the magistrate of Shouyang County and the di leader arranged by Qiang Duan got the news from Zhang county. Without any hesitation, they went directly to Didao county. They did not dare to delay any longer.


    Huangfu is dead!


    Chen Meng is dead!


    All the people were led by the owls, and their bodies were placed at the gate of the city. One by one, they were denounced by the people.


    I''m not willing to do anything like this.


    So Shouyang County is empty.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Shouyang County, she directly controlled Shouyang County. However, there are no officials or troublemakers in today''s Shouyang County, so Zhang Xiu stops for a moment, deals with the government affairs of Shouyang County, and goes on to Didao county.


    Zhang Daoxiu is the ultimate goal. Because both qiangtuan and huangfumin were in Didao County, only by killing them could the chaos in Longxi County be calmed down.


    When the army went to Didao County, the magistrate of Shouyang County had been withdrawn. Huangfumin got the news from the counties in Longxi. His face was blue and his heart was worried.


    Zhang Xiu is too cruel.


    It''s clear that we want to kill all.


    Huang Fu Min was not afraid, because he had more than ten thousand soldiers in his hands, plus more than ten thousand Di people in qiangtuan, and more than twenty thousand soldiers. Such a force, guarding Didao County, was quite sure to turn Zhang Xiu away.


    Huang Fumin once again arranged for him to invite Qiang Duan. Needless to say, Qiang Duan also knew the situation all over the country.


    Strong end gnaws a tooth way: "Zhang Xiu this Liao, is really hateful.". He killed so many people and dared to come to our Didao county. Lord Huangfu, what I mean is to fight with Zhang Xiu and go to kill her. "


    "Ah


    Huang Fumin was surprised to hear that.


    Take the initiative?


    Strong end of the brain, no problem.


    Knowing that Zhang Xiu''s strength is so strong, he even has to take the initiative to fight.


    Huangfumin took a deep breath and said: "in today''s situation, we have few troops. With the help of the strong defense of Didao county and the advantage of favorable time, location and people, we have a great deal of confidence in guarding Didao county. But what''s the reason why chieftain qiangtuan wants to take the initiative? Or you have some clever plan to beat Zhang Xiu. "


    Strong end sink a way: "there is no clever plan, is dare to fight.". Because now, the sons of our qiangtuan tribe are killed and killed countless times, and then they are thrown at the gate of the city. This is a shame to the Di people of our qiangtuan tribe. Zhang Xiu is really hateful. "


    After hearing this, Huang Fumin began to smoke.


    Is fighting for death?


    Huangfumin shook his head and said, "qiangtuan clan leader, it''s really not suitable to fight under the current situation. Once we fight, I''m afraid we will die in the hands of Zhang Xiu. We first use the defense of the city tower of Didao county to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. After Zhang Xiu''s strength is weakened, how about going to war again? "


    After thinking about it, Qiang Duan felt that there was no problem with what Huang Fumin said, and finally nodded his head.


    Two people discuss coping strategies, then each to prepare.


    In less than six days, the army led by Zhang Xiu had arrived outside the city of Didao county. At this time, both qiangtuan and huangfumin arrived on the upper floor of the city, and they were ready for the first battle.


    Outside the city, Zhang Xiu rode her horse.


    Zhang Xiu looked up at the city floor with sharp eyes.


    The overall situation of Longxi County lies here.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "Huangfu min, you should kill the people of Longxi County for your own personal interests. Now, get out of the city and surrender. I''ll keep your whole body. Otherwise, I''ll chop up your body and feed it to the dog. "


    Brush!


    Huangfumin''s face was very embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu is abominable!


    If he does not surrender, he will die.


    Surrender and leave the whole body.


    If you don''t surrender, you will be cut apart.


    Huangfu said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, I''m on the upper floor of the city. I''ll see how you break the city? The city of Didao county is very strong and has countless defensive equipment. Even if you have countless troops, it''s impossible to break the city. "


    Qiang Duan stood aside and frowned.


    I didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to be so overbearing.


    Zhang Xiu feels the current wind direction. She smiles and orders: "Gan Ning, order to attack!"


    "Here it is


    When Gan Ning got the order, he immediately gave it.


    The army under the command of the fierce tiger army, mighty, straight to the castle. With the fierce tiger army attacking, huangfumin quickly mobilized the soldiers on the upper floor of the city to resist.


    At the beginning of the war, everyone''s eyes focused on the South Gate of Didao county.


    Meanwhile, outside the north gate.


    Under the cold wind in the air, the flying balls are drifting slowly and have entered the North City area. There are forty-three flying balls. After entering, they begin to descend slowly.


    There are twenty soldiers in the basket of each flying ball.


    All soldiers, all armed.


    When a flying ball fell, more than 800 soldiers quickly landed.The leader is the general of Langya camp.


    Eight hundred soldiers gathered quickly and went straight to the north gate. As the soldiers enter the north gate, they directly open it. The gate creaked open, and three thousand soldiers appeared outside the north gate.


    Chen Dao is the leader.


    All the 3000 soldiers under his command are infantry of Langya battalion. After three thousand soldiers entered the city, they joined up with more than 800 soldiers and arrived at nearly four thousand. The four thousand soldiers went straight to the south gate along the streets of the city.


    The news came out quickly.


    When the news came to the south gate and to Huangfu min''s ears, Huangfu min looked very surprised, and his face showed a look of panic. You should know that although the north gate is garrisoned with a small number of troops, it is also garrisoned by soldiers and can not be easily broken.


    But now, it''s falling down.


    Such a situation is shocking.


    Huangfumin was in a panic, but at this time, he did not dare to delay. He immediately looked to the side of the strong end, said in a deep voice: "strong end patriarch, the north gate was broken, the situation is very dangerous."


    "Now, there are about 4000 soldiers from the north gate to the south gate."


    "I guess it will arrive soon."


    "You are now mobilizing your soldiers to stay in the city, ready to resist the attack of this army. Your troops must guard the gate. Once the gate falls, we are in danger. "


    Huang Fumin said, "you know the situation in Xiangwu county and Zhangxian county."


    "Well, I''ll give it to you from the tower."


    The strong side didn''t refuse, so it directly responded.


    In the current situation, there are huangfumin soldiers on the tower, which can block the attack of the fierce tiger army for the time being, so there is no need to mobilize soldiers. In particular, there are still some powerful and Qiang troops on the upper floor of the city, which can be held.


    Strong end with soldiers, down the tower.


    The army was stationed in line on the streets of the city, and the soldiers of Di tribe were waiting quietly with their swords. Time is not long, see in front of the street, came the rapid footsteps.


    A team of soldiers had rushed in.


    Chen Dao is the leader.


    Chen to the horse, carrying a long gun fast forward, roared: "kill!"


    Qiang Duan is also a person with excellent martial arts skills. When he saw Chen Dao, he no longer hesitated and ordered: "kill!"


    The di tribe worships the strong.


    Di people are not afraid of fighting.


    Even the fighting of Di people on the battlefield is quite brave. They all hope to show their bravery on the battlefield. The strong end drives the horse to rush in the front, in his hand a long knife, the knife has swung.


    When he was about to get close to Chen, he swung the long sword and cut it off.


    "Die


    Strong end biting teeth, eyes are full of look of expectation. His martial arts in the tribe, alone with their own strength, can crush opponents. Now facing Chen Dao, the strong end is the same, ready to win with strength.


    With the blade cut, Chen Zhi took the reins in his left hand and quickly sidestepped to avoid. He hid in the stapes to avoid the knife cut by the strong end. Immediately, when he sat on the horse again, the long gun in his hand had been stabbed out like lightning.

 Chapter 785

    The long gun swept away, leaving a cold light in the air. In the twinkling of an eye, it has reached the strong end of the body.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates directly into the chest of the strong end.


    Peiran''s strength impels the gun tip to move forward and easily pierces the strong end''s heart. The tip of the gun stirs and spins out. After the tip of the gun was drawn out, the red blood splashed out like a spring.


    "Ah


    The sound of intense pain comes from the port of self-improvement.


    The knife in Qiang Duan''s hand fell to the ground. He raised his hand and quickly covered his heart to stop the gushing blood. But the heart stopped beating, which made his eyes dim quickly.


    "I don''t..."


    As soon as the words were spoken, he fell to the ground with a plop.


    "Kill


    Chen to pick up the gun, horse, continue to move forward.


    "Run away!"


    "The king is killed. The king is dead."


    "Run away!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the Di people of qiangtuan tribe saw that qiangtuan had fallen to the ground and cried out to escape, no longer rushing forward. Even Qiang Duan was killed in front of him, let alone them.


    The constant escape of Di people made the situation in the gate of the city chaotic. More than ten thousand Di people fled and lost their fighting capacity.


    Chen Dao led the soldiers, and in a short time, they had already killed inside the gate.


    The soldiers came forward and opened the gate.


    Creak!


    When the gate of the city was opened, Zhang Xiu outside the city saw this. With a wave of her hand, the fierce tiger army under Ganning no longer remained, and all of them entered the city. Even the rest of the infantry of Langya camp also rushed into the city.


    Only the cavalry of Langya camp were left to sweep the array around Zhang Xiu.


    Mighty soldiers, charge.


    Huangfumin was sitting on the upper floor of the city. When he saw that the Di people had completely escaped, especially when he saw that the gate of the city had been lost, he was completely alarmed. Didao county can''t keep it. To stay here now is to wait for death.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Huangfumin did not dare to delay, but with a group of powerful leaders and the rest of the big family leaders, he quickly evacuated. They didn''t leave through the south gate, because now the south gate is broken, and Zhang Xiu''s troops are all inside and outside the city, so they can''t leave at all.


    Huangfumin''s plan is to go to Ximen.


    He walked along the wall of the tower, with people quickly evacuated, to the west gate.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Huangfu min roared and looked frightened.


    At this moment, Huangfu min was shocked and even more secretly scolded qiangtuan for his incompetence. He was even more afraid of Zhang Xiu. The city wall of Didao County, which he controlled, was strong, but he did not expect that the strong city wall would be easily broken in front of Zhang Xiu.


    He was even more regretful.


    If you had known that, you should have evacuated.


    He''s going to Zhangye!


    Zhangye has budugen, other powerful families, and the army of DI and Qiang people.


    Certainly can resist Zhang Xiu.


    But now the losses are heavy. He leaves in a hurry and can''t take anything with him. All the money, food, etc. were cheap, but Zhang Xiu couldn''t get them out at all.


    But huangfumin had to retreat quickly. If he did, he might be killed.


    The direction of Huangfu min''s retreat was soon found by the soldiers, and then spread to Zhang Xiu''s ears. Zhang Xiu has a clear idea of killing. He takes the overlord''s gun from the soldiers, mobilizes 3000 cavalry of Langya camp, and goes straight to the west gate, leaving Sima Yi and Jia Xu at the south gate to direct the fight at the south gate.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the west gate, he waited quietly near the west gate.


    Before long, huangfumin came out of the west gate.


    Get out, get out of here


    Huang Fu Min roared, his face very nervous. He still has pursuers in the rear. If he runs slowly, he is likely to be overtaken. Especially nearby, there are Zhang Xiu''s troops, which is quite dangerous.


    We have to evacuate as soon as possible.


    There were also a large number of soldiers around him, at least more than 3000 of them.


    A soldier, surrounded by Huangfu min retreat. When this group of people withdraw from the west gate, Zhang Xiu looks at Huangfu min, who is trying to escape from the west gate. She points her gun to the front and rushes forward without saying a word.


    All cavalry, follow.


    Da! Da!!


    The sound of the horse''s hooves suddenly rang out.


    The mighty sound of horse''s hooves gathered together to form a momentum like a tsunami. As if the whole ground began to shake. Three thousand cavalry of Langya camp, like a mighty iron and steel torrent, went straight to the place where Huangfu min was.


    Huangfu min was retreating. Suddenly, he heard the sound of horses'' hoofs and looked up to the left. He immediately opened his eyes and suddenly tried to shout: "resist, block the attack!"


    Now the cavalry led by Zhang Xiu came from the front left.


    If the soldiers under the command of huangfumin could not resist the attack, they would be defeated completely. One by one, after getting the order of huangfumin, the soldiers quickly stepped forward to resist.In a flash, the horses had already been killed in the army under the command of Huangfu min, and the cavalry of Langya camp had rushed into the army under the command of Huangfu min.


    The blade swung up and cut down.


    The light of the knife flickered and the blood spattered.


    Screams haunt the battlefield one after another. One by one, the soldiers under the command of Huangfu min had been completely defeated and could no longer resist. They all began to retreat.


    Zhang Xiu, armed with a tyrant''s gun, is indomitable. The overlord gun swung and smashed in his hand, slamming on a soldier, smashing his head and splashing blood.


    The overlord''s gun is constantly brandished, or smashed, or stabbed, or swept


    Where you pass, you will be overwhelmed.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the position of huangfumin. In the previous conversation outside the south gate, he had already remembered the appearance of huangfumin. Now he wants to win huangfumin.


    Only by killing huangfumin can we have deterrent power. If we just kill some minions, we can''t affect the rest of Liangzhou counties. We can only frighten the rioters one by one and all of them.


    Zhang Xiu''s pursuit of the wind is moving forward.


    He''s like a sharp cone, fast forward. In the twinkling of an eye, it was less than ten steps away from the location of huangfumin. Huangfumin himself was not good at martial arts, and he was a little old, and even less powerful.


    As soon as I saw Zhang Xiu killed, I was extremely alarmed. I roared and ordered: "kill, stop Zhang Xiu for me, stop Zhang Xiu."


    Side Pro guard, constantly forward.


    It''s a pity that these pro guards are trying to stop Zhang Xiu, but they can''t stop her. Instead, they are constantly dying under Zhang Xiu''s gun. The countless blood splashes down, and Zhang Xiu''s body has already been stained with countless blood.


    The whole person is like a blood man.


    It is such a scene, but also to Zhang Xiu, set off like a demon in general, incomparably terrible.


    Zhang Xiu is constantly advancing.


    The distance from huangfumin was still shrinking, from ten steps to eight steps, and finally to four steps. Such a distance has been shortened.


    Zhang Xiu''s horse leaps forward and quickly shortens the distance with huangfumin. At this time, the overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand had been stabbed out like lightning.

 Chapter 786

    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into the horse''s buttocks under Huangfu min''s crotch.


    One shot down, blood spattered.


    Herod!!


    The war horse with painful buttocks suddenly went crazy, constantly swinging his buttocks and rushing forward quickly. Huang Fu Min rode on horseback. Originally, his riding skill was ordinary and his horses were gentle, but it had no influence. But now the horse suddenly went crazy, his little riding skill couldn''t control the horse, and he was thrown out directly.


    Plop!


    Huangfumin flew out and fell on his horse.


    Huang Fumin''s fall made him scream. The viscera, more as if they were shocked in general, only feel that the whole body are scattered, can no longer stand up.


    A figure stopped in front of huangfumin.


    But Zhang Xiu has turned over and got off the horse.


    Zhang Xiuli stood in front of Huangfu min and looked down at Huangfu min lying on the ground. He was holding the overlord gun in his hand. There were still drops of blood flowing down from the tip of the gun and it fell to the ground.


    Around Zhang Xiu, soldiers have gathered.


    One by one, the soldiers came forward and attacked the soldiers under the command of huangfumin. Under the sprint and killing of cavalry, where they passed, they formed crushing and slaughtering, killing the soldiers under the command of Huangfu min and constantly fleeing.


    At this moment, huangfumin''s heart is hanging in the air. He didn''t know what strength he had, so he turned over and knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said, "King Qin, your highness, I''m wrong, I''m willing to surrender. My family, Huangfu, is willing to help the king of Qin. "


    Huangfumin already knew about Zhang Xiu.


    Today, Zhang Xiu is no longer a Taiwei, but the king of Qin in the Han Dynasty.


    This is not Zhang Xiu''s own king.


    It was appointed by the imperial court.


    On Zhang Xiu''s face, there was a cool color. He looked at Huang Fu Min kneeling on the ground, and his eyes were clear. In the hand overlord gun, suddenly swings, then mercilessly smashes.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The overlord''s gun fell on huangfumin''s shoulder. The next moment, there was a click. The bone on huangfumin''s right shoulder was completely broken, and huangfumin collapsed to the ground with constant wailing and shaking.


    Pain!


    The pain of the bone marrow, constantly out.


    He felt nothing but pain.


    At this moment, Huangfu min, a cheek, has become ferocious pain, a pair of eyes full of hatred. But he didn''t dare to reveal it. He could only endure the pain and said, "King Qin, I''m guilty. Huangfu min is guilty and willing to be punished. Huangfu''s family is willing to make up for it and give it to the king of Qin. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu was extremely angry at the rebellion. Without this rebellion in Liangzhou, he could even fight into Yuzhou and kill Cao Cao to escape.


    But because of the turmoil in Liangzhou, Zhang Xiu''s plans changed. Moreover, the rebellion in Liangzhou killed countless promoted taxis. Yang Xiu''s hard work in Liangzhou was destroyed.


    Next, to govern Liangzhou, it will cost countless efforts.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first shot just now was for thousands of surnames in Longxi County. You huangfumin, damn it


    While talking, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is mentioned again.


    Whew!


    Under the bayonet of overlord.


    With a puff, the sharp point of the gun easily penetrated huangfumin''s left shoulder and pierced his shoulder blade. After this stab, the blood splashed, and Huangfu min kept shaking and screaming.


    Endless pain, from his left and right shoulders, made him extremely painful.


    He didn''t even want to live.


    He wants to die!


    So that it''s over!


    Huangfu min clenched his teeth and looked at Zhang Xiu. His face showed a look of begging for mercy. He roared again: "King Qin, Huangfu min is guilty and willing to make up for it. Huang Fu''s family is willing to submit to him. "


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu''s look in her eyes was extremely sharp and said: "the second shot was for the king himself."


    "Damn you!"


    Zhang Xiu took the gun and stabbed it again.


    Puchi!


    The tip of the gun penetrated into huangfumin''s chest and heart.


    With the penetration of the tip of the gun, the wound at the heart has been overflowing with blood. When the tip of the gun was drawn out, the blood splashed out from the position where the blood hole was, and dyed huangfumin''s chest red.


    After a few convulsions, Huang Fu Min''s face was filled with unwilling and endless pain, and his expression finally solidified.


    Breath between the nose, completely disappeared.


    Huangfumin was killed.


    After Zhang Xiu killed Huangfu min, she looked up at his private soldiers who were fleeing. Now the private soldiers of Huangfu''s family can''t bear the cover up of the cavalry of Langya camp and intend to surrender.


    But the cavalry of Langya camp didn''t pay any attention at all. They kept killing the soldiers of Huangfu''s family. Thousands of people were killed in the Langya camp.There''s a body on the floor.


    The ground has been stained red with blood.


    Outside the west gate, there was a smell of blood. Although there was a cold wind blowing away the bloody smell, the dark purple blood clots on the ground, which had been frozen and coagulated, clearly showed the fierce fighting just now.


    More than half an hour later, the war stopped outside the west gate.


    Zhang Xiu returns to the South Gate with the soldiers of Langya camp. By this time, Ganning had led the soldiers to clean up the battlefield. Because all the Di, Qiang and powerful soldiers in the city have been killed.


    A corpse, lying outside the city.


    But this time, Zhang Xiu didn''t show up. Because too many people were killed, nearly 20000 people. At such a scale, it''s not appropriate to leave dense heads. All the bodies will be burned directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s troops lost less than 1000 people.


    The main loss is actually the loss of siege, and there is almost no loss when covering up.


    Zhang Xiu takes the soldiers straight into the city and takes a rest in Didao County for a day. At the same time, Ganning arranged for soldiers to seal up the Huangfu family and collect all the food and money of the di tribe.


    After all, all over the country collected food and money from Qiang people, Di people and powerful people to ensure that Zhang Xiu could support the war with war.


    Zhang Xiu took out part of the grain and opened a warehouse to appease the people.


    Then he continued to set out.


    After Zhang Xiu took Didao County, in fact, she did not go west to the rest of Longxi County. Although there are still some counties and rebel forces in Longxi County, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to encircle and suppress them.


    His ultimate goal is to go to Zhangye and rescue pound and Gaolan.


    Only in the current situation, Zhang Xiu takes the way of killing, so it is along the only way to kill directly in the past. If you take a detour to wipe out the rest of the place, Zhang Xiu is not willing to.


    Since Didao County left, Zhang Xiu continued to go north and began to go to Jincheng county.


    There are still Di people in Jincheng county. However, the direction of burning dangqiang in Jincheng county is peaceful, but Yuzhong County and Yunwu County on the border of Jincheng county are controlled by Di people.


    The di tribe in Jincheng county is called Xingguo di.


    The king of Di people in this tribe was named Agui.


    This man was also tempted by Fengji before he dared to make trouble. The place where a GUI occupied was in Yunwu county. There are nearly ten thousand troops under his command, and his strength is not weak.


    Yunwu County, in the city.


    In the mansion where a GUI lives, he is now well-off, enjoying himself and enjoying himself.


    During his stay in Yunwu County, Agui repeatedly selected beautiful women to enrich his harem. The so-called selection, in fact, is to snatch, arrange people in each county to snatch beautiful women.

 Chapter 787

    While a GUI was enjoying the song and dance, his staff came in a hurry.


    The staff came in and waved.


    When all the singers stepped down, the staff said in a hurry, "Your Majesty, it''s not good. Zhang Xiu has entered Jincheng county from Longxi County, and has come straight to us. "


    Ah GUI frowned and said in a deep voice: "there are Huangfu min and Qiang Duan in Longxi County. How can Zhang Xiu have killed Jincheng County in such a short time?"


    "Dead, dead."


    "The latest news is that Zhang Xiu entered Longxi County from Xiangwu county and killed all the people in Xiangwu county. It''s the same in Zhangxian County, and it''s even the same in Didao county. It was not only Huangfu min and qiangtuan who were killed, but also the soldiers under their command. There were more than 20000 people. None of them was left behind and all of them died. "


    The staff said: "from the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu did not accept surrender and slaughtered all the time. Zhang Xiu is so cruel. "


    "Hiss!"


    After hearing this, GUI couldn''t help taking a breath.


    There was a look of horror in his eyes.


    Xingguodi under Agui is also a big tribe of Di people. There is not much difference between their actual strength and that of the strong Duandi people.


    But now, qiangtuan is killed directly.


    In particular, Huangfu min was also a powerful and powerful people in Longxi. Huangfu''s family was easily exterminated in front of Zhang Xiu. In the face of such Zhang Xiu, ah GUI''s heart is even more trembling.


    He suddenly regretted something.


    It''s easy to revolt. The problem is that Zhang Xiu is different from the ruler of the Han Dynasty and the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The emperor of the Han Dynasty has always made trouble with the Qiang Di people in Liangzhou. If the Qiang Di people are willing to surrender, the emperor is likely not to pursue and fight fiercely, and is willing to accept surrender.


    But today''s Zhang Xiu doesn''t play cards according to common sense. It''s amazing how much blood and debt we''ve had all the way.


    The staff said, "king, what shall we do?"


    Ah GUI sighed: "what else can we do? We have to evacuate. In today''s situation, if we stay in Yunwu County, we will die. The order goes on immediately. All the people in Xingguo will leave Jincheng county and go north to Weiwu county. We will go to Zhangye and go to budugen. "


    "Here it is


    The staff was ordered to turn around and step down.


    At this time, GUI is already upset, no longer have the courage to fight, no mood to watch the song and dance. It''s just an hour. Agui left Yunwu County in a hurry and went north to Zhangye.


    When Agui went to the north, he burned in the territory of Qiang.


    The location of Wang Zhang.


    Where is the king of Qiang burning Dang Qiang? Midang also got the news that Zhang Xiu was sent to Jincheng county.


    In Longxi County, Zhang Xiu killed a lot, which shocked midang. Once upon a time, he had dealt with Zhang Xiu. Although he saw Zhang Xiu with strong spirit, in fact, midang had never seen Zhang Xiu''s wanton killing.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, killing, all the way to Jincheng County, shocking.


    "Hoo!"


    Wang Zhang''s curtain was lifted and a middle-aged man entered.


    His name was Yan Heng. He was a staff member recruited by midang after Jiang Ye left. After all, there are people who need to help in the government affairs. Yan Heng himself was recommended by Jiang ye, and their relationship was good.


    After Yan Heng entered, he bowed himself and said, "king, the latest news is that ah GUI of Wuxian county will withdraw. Today, ah GUI has left Yunwu county to the north of Weiwu county. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    When Mi heard this, he couldn''t help laughing and said: "this damned GUI, when he didn''t make a mess, it was not bad. I didn''t see how cruel he was. But after he made trouble, he plundered women, plundered goods and grain, which was abominable. Thanks to shaodangqiang, there are a few soldiers in each tribe, otherwise we will not be spared. "


    Yan Heng said: "shaodang Qiang is a big tribe, whose strength is no less than that of a GUI. I don''t expect him to come. But now, when the king of Qin arrived in Jincheng County, could he send some troops to rush for help? "


    "I''ll go


    Mi Dang said in a deep voice: "today''s Zhang Xiu is not what it used to be. The last time he came, he was a great Han''s Taiwei. Now, he is the king of Qin. "


    Speaking of this, midang stopped for a moment and said with a smile: "speaking of it, DOR''s eyes are really good. At the beginning, he fell in love with Zhang Xiu. "


    Yan Heng said: "girl duo''er, she has unique vision."


    Midang ordered: "pass the order down, and mobilize all the 3000 soldiers and horses who burned us as Qiang people. Then, follow me to meet with Zhang Xiu. In addition, take a thousand sheep with us


    "Here it is


    Yan Heng went to order directly.


    The shaodang Qiang, where midang is now located, has only 3000 troops. If we want to gather enough troops, we can recruit from all the shaodang Qiang tribes, but in that case, shaodang Qiang will be completely abandoned.


    It is impossible to recruit everyone until the most dangerous time.


    Less than half an hour later, Mitang mobilized his troops and left shaodangqiang. He rushed all the way with the army, and the sheep slowly followed. When midang arrived in Yunwu County, the army led by Zhang Xiu also just arrived.When midang and Zhang Xiu met, he brought people forward, saw Zhang Xiu, bowed and said: "I''ve seen the king of Qin!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "the king of Qiang is not very grateful for his help."


    Midang Lian said: "there''s nothing to help. It''s just icing on the cake. Before that, a GUI was in trouble, and we were short of troops, but there were more than 3000 elite, so we had to protect ourselves. I''m really ashamed that I can''t pacify ah GUI''s rebellion even though he is making trouble. Now that the king of Qin is here, Mitang comes with a small force to help him. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "if the king of Qiang is modest, he will have a heart."


    After the confluence of the army, there was no delay and they continued on their way. After all, Zhang Xiu set up a flying Qiang army, and most of the shaodang Qiang people were recruited to the front line.


    Shaodang Qiang is indeed weak.


    Of course, the recruited shaodang Qiang people have a good life now. Because the soldiers of the flying Qiang army who have made great contributions to the front line in recent years are highly praised and sent back by transport soldiers.


    Today''s shaodang Qiang people are proud to enter the flying Qiang army.


    Zhang Xiu with the army, all the way north.


    All the way north, along the way, people all over the place to withdraw. Zhang Xiu''s army, every county, is empty, did not encounter obstacles.


    Zhang Xiu saw this, but her heart was also happy.


    This is the advantage of killing. His killing in Longxi County shocked all those who made trouble.


    These people are scared of being killed.


    Under such circumstances, no one dares to stay and go to Zhangye county. This is exactly what Zhang Xiu wants to see, because once the news reaches Zhangye, as long as it spreads, it can also relieve the pressure of Gaolan and pound.


    In fact, there are countless Qiang and Di people gathering in Zhangye county.


    These are the Qiang and di who have caused trouble.


    In addition, there are also some powerful gathering.


    All the people gathered around budugen and all told about Zhang Xiu in Longxi County. When Zhang Xiu was mentioned one by one, there was panic and fear in her eyes.


    After hearing this, bu Dugen was also a little frightened.


    He looked at Feng Ji sitting below and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Feng, Zhang Xiu has gone to Zhangye county to kill him. But during this period of time, we attacked Zhangye and never conquered the county. Gao Lan''s defense is still very strong. What should we do now? "


    Feng Ji stroked his beard under his jaw with a slightly dignified look on his face.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would slaughter the Di people and Huangfu family in Longxi County in a short time, which made everyone confused and start to fear.

 Chapter 788

    Fengji looked at all the people on the scene, with panic on their faces. He shook his head in his heart.


    What a mob!


    Such a group of people, to resist the attack of Zhang Xiu, almost so very difficult. However, it is enough to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength and make trouble for her.


    In fact, on the order of Yuan Shao, he went to Bingzhou quietly, and then went to Xianbei department to lobby budugen, hoping to make trouble for Zhang Xiu in the rear.


    Let Zhang Xiu had to withdraw.


    In this way, we have a chance to help Yuan Shao.


    But the problem is, he just arrived in Liangzhou, just started to operate, Yuan Shao was defeated, so that he fled back to Jizhou, which is really helpless.


    Today''s situation, Fengji can add some trouble to Zhang Xiu, it''s enough.


    However, he had to stabilize these people. If the people of budugen, Qiang, Di and Haoqiang were dispersed, it would be even more impossible to resist Zhang Xiu or even weaken him.


    Looking at the people in the camp, Feng Ji looked calm and confident. He said in a deep voice: "you are worried and exaggerate Zhang Xiu''s strength."


    Budugen said, "why?"


    A GUI also said: "why?"


    A group of people, together looking to Fengji, waiting for Fengji to explain the current situation.


    Feng Jishen said: "first, Zhang Xiu''s troops, in fact, already have a clear message, that is, less than 60000 people, such forces have been, for us, pressure?"


    "Not much, obviously!"


    "Now we all have more than 80000 troops. Especially during this period of time, there are still a steady stream of people coming. It can be predicted that our strength will grow. "


    "At the end of the day, our forces far exceeded Zhang Xiu."


    Every time Ji talked about it, he said with a straight face: "an army of 80000 or 90000 is afraid of the 50000 or 60000 Zhang Xiu. Are the Xianbei tribes in the north, the di tribes in Liangzhou, and the powerful families in Liangzhou made of paper


    After hearing the speech, everyone nodded.


    On everyone''s face, the tense expression disappeared, gradually recovered calm, no longer had the previous panic. Originally, when these people heard Zhang Xiu''s news, they were all panic stricken and worried about being slaughtered by Zhang Xiu.


    According to Feng Jiyi, everyone''s inner tension has been calmed down.


    After all, there is a sharp contrast between strengths.


    This has not been taken into account before.


    When he looked around the crowd, he saw that they were a little calm, but he sneered.


    In fact, a simple comparison of the number of words is of little significance. Because the combination of Xianbei, Di, Qiang and Haoqiang could not achieve the goal of prohibition. As long as it''s a person, there will be another mind.


    But Fengji won''t mention it.


    Once he said that, I''m afraid these people will no longer resist, but will break up.


    Fengji continued: "ladies and gentlemen, the second thing I want to talk about is the fall of Xiangwu county and Zhangxian county. Although Zhang Xiu is a direct butcher, have you ever considered why Zhang Xiu can win?"


    "No matter Xiangwu county or Zhangxian County, there are no more than two or three thousand troops. Isn''t it normal for Zhang Xiu to be defeated with two or three thousand troops to resist the strength of fifty or sixty thousand people? "


    "How can this be sent back? Everyone is afraid."


    "Also worried about being slaughtered by Zhang Xiu."


    Feng jitut shook his head and said, "in fact, it''s Zhang Xiu''s plan. He deliberately wanted to stop the killing, so as to frighten you. If you are deceived, it will be in Zhang Xiu''s heart. "


    "As for the war in Didao County, it was simple. Just like just now, you are all scared, not to mention huangfucheng and qiangtuan in Didao county


    "The army is demoralized and will not be able to fight again."


    "It''s normal to lose."


    Fengji zhengse said: "under such a premise, it is extremely normal to be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu. So a detailed analysis shows that although Zhang Xiu was killed in this war, in fact, Zhang Xiu is not so terrible. "


    "In terms of military strength, we are not inferior to Zhang Xiu; in terms of strength, we are not inferior to Zhang Xiu. What''s more, you are used to the weather in Liangzhou, and you are used to fighting in the cold winter. "


    "But Zhang Xiu''s army is not used to the weather, and we are waiting for the rabbit, waiting for work. Why are we afraid of Zhang Xiu? In the current situation, our strength does not need to be afraid of Zhang Xiu. "


    Feng Ji said with a light smile, "but you are all in a panic."


    Budugen said, "yes, yes, that''s the truth."


    GUI nodded in agreement.


    Other people''s faces were full of praise.


    At this moment, people will not panic.


    Every time Ji Jian calmed everyone down, he continued with a bright smile: "everyone, under the current situation, Zhang Xiu has not arrived in Zhangye. Our first task is still to capture Zhangye, Gaolan and pound. "


    "Zhang Xiu likes to take hostages to threaten people.""Now we just need to take Zhangye and capture Gao Lan and pound alive. When the time comes, Zhang Xiu will kill us and we will threaten them. Isn''t it a pleasure? This is our chance. "


    Fengji said: "take Zhangye, we want to block Zhangxiu, is easy thing."


    "Wonderful


    Budugen was even more happy, with a look of approval.


    He was already immersed in the environment described by Feng Ji. He looked around and solemnly said, "you don''t have to delay any more. We attack Zhangye county again. We must win Zhangye in this battle. As long as we capture Zhangye, then we can easily win the battle against Zhang Xiu. "


    The crowd echoed.


    Bu Dugen did not delay any longer, and quickly mobilized his troops to the direction of the county. When the army arrived outside the county, bu Du didn''t say much and attacked directly.


    This time, the offensive was overwhelming.


    The momentum of its attack is stronger and sharper than before.


    Gao Lan was surprised to see the attack. Because the current attack is much stronger than before. However, Gao Lan and pound, there is no impatience, in accordance with the steady defense.


    As the offensive gets stronger and stronger, the pressure on Gaolan becomes greater and greater.


    The soldiers on the tower are under great pressure.


    At this time, Gao Lan found that the situation was not good. Because compared with the past, the enemy''s offensive today is too fierce. At this time, even if Gaolan has reinforcements supported by Zhangye County, it is extremely dangerous.


    After all, I''ve fought countless times before.


    The soldiers under his command, under such a premise, bear great pressure.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, suddenly, a sentry quickly ran to Gao Lan''s side and reported: "general, there are people from the royal guards in the city coming to see you."


    Previously, the road had been blocked.


    Now, it''s different.


    With the opening of Longxi County and Jincheng County, we have been able to send the royal guards to Zhangye. Although Zhang Xiu''s army hasn''t arrived yet, in fact, the royal guards have come to the city first and contacted Gao Lan''s people.


    Gao Lan said excitedly, "come on, please come up!"

 Chapter 789

    Soon, a royal guard came to Gaolan.


    Gao Lan couldn''t wait to say, "come on, but what''s the news from my lord?"


    Royal Highness Qin Weidao


    As soon as he opened his mouth, Gao Lan interrupted: "what''s your royal highness, I''m asking the Lord."


    The Royal Guard said: "Taiwei is the royal highness of the king of Qin. The imperial court issued an imperial edict to appoint Taiwei as the king of Qin. Today, Taiwei is the king of Qin. Your highness is on his way to Zhangye county. "


    At this point, the royal guards took out a letter, handed it to Gao Lan and said, "the specific situation is in the letter. You can see it by yourself."


    Gao Lan was very surprised.


    Taiwei became the king of Qin.


    It''s changing so fast.


    Gaolan quickly open the letter, ten lines at a glance, fast browsing.


    When he finished, he looked excited. He immediately called for the soldiers under his command and gave a loud order: "the order goes on, saying that the Lord has defeated the Allied forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. He has already killed in Weiwu county and will soon arrive in Zhangye county."


    When the herald heard the news, he immediately began to shout up and down the castle.


    "Here comes Tai Wei!"


    "Taiwei''s reinforcements will soon arrive in Zhangye."


    "The Allied forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have been defeated by Taiwei. Taiwei''s army has entered Weiwu county and will soon arrive in Zhangye. "


    "Reinforcements are coming!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the heralds yelled back and forth.


    When the news came out, the soldiers who were fighting in the city were in high spirits. One by one had been tired of resisting, but hearing that Zhang Xiu''s reinforcements were about to arrive, they were all full of fighting spirit.


    In the precarious situation, under the fighting of the city guards, they beat down the enemy who attacked the city tower and guarded the old city.


    Gao Lan was relieved to see it in his eyes.


    At least it was held.


    He saw that the morale of the soldiers in the army was strong. He only needed to dispatch and arrange the soldiers to resist, and no longer had to worry about the attacking enemy. In the evening, the Allied forces of Xianbei and di retreated.


    At this time, Gao Lan was relieved.


    Gao Lan ordered the rest of the soldiers to clean the battlefield. But when the soldiers cleaned the battlefield, there were many soldiers who asked about Zhang Xiu and what was the matter. Gao Lan said that they would tell everyone the news when they finished.


    When the battlefield is cleaned up and the losses are counted, the number of soldiers guarding the city is less than 4000.


    It''s a series of casualties.


    Gao Lan came to the four thousand soldiers and looked at the look of hope in their eyes. He said in a loud voice, "the first thing I want to say about the news of the Lord. Since then, we will no longer call the Lord Taiwei, but the king of Qin, his royal highness. The Lord defeated the Allied forces of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and the emperor issued an imperial edict to make him king of Qin. "


    WOW!!


    Countless soldiers, get excited.


    Congratulations to Zhang Xiu!


    Cheer for yourself!


    Because they are Zhang Xiu''s followers and soldiers. Now Zhang Xiu is so powerful that they are proud of her soldiers.


    Gao Lan continued: "the second thing, after the Lord led his army to Longxi County, he went from Xiangwu county to Zhangxian County, and finally to Didao County, Longxi County, and killed more than 20000 people. If you don''t leave any of the thieves who make trouble, kill them all. "


    "Well done


    The soldiers in the army spoke one after another.


    One by one, the surviving soldiers have gone through hardships. Each of them is now extremely thin, with dry lips and sunken cheeks. It''s very hard.


    After all, it''s not easy to defend the city for one or two months.


    They all hate those who make trouble.


    You should be killed!


    Gao Lan raised his hand and pressed down, motioned for everyone to be quiet, and said again, "the third thing is that the Lord''s army has entered Zhangye. Now the Lord''s order, let''s just stick to it, and leave the rest alone. Today, outside Zhangye, there are also Qiang, Di and powerful people who have been withdrawn from all over the country. There are a lot of troops. Let''s be careful. "


    After three news, Gao Lan looked around at all the soldiers and said in a loud voice, "this time we were trapped in Zhangye. Up to now, it has been almost two months."


    "It''s not easy for us in these two months."


    "Most of the soldiers in our army have left. Every one of you who survived had injuries. So far, we have survived the fight. "


    Gao Lan said, "thank you for staying up to now. Gao Lan, thank you


    With that, he bowed his head.


    In fact, it''s a real gain and loss to be able to defend Zhangye and wait for the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s reinforcements. The soldiers in the army are going all out. Without the full efforts of the officers and men, there would be no present.


    One by one, the soldiers heard the speech, but they were embarrassed and laughed, very embarrassed. This falls in Gao Lan''s eyes, but Gao Lan thinks that this is the most lovely smile.With these soldiers, there is today.


    After Gao Lan straightened his back, he finally said again: "boys, now this battle has come to the end. We stayed in Zhangye for two months. For two months, the enemy was unable to invade Zhangye. "


    "Now the army of the king of Qin is about to arrive in Zhangye."


    "If we lose Zhangye at the last moment, what face do we have? Go to see the king of Qin. So the more so, the more we have to keep our spirits up and guard Zhangye, so as to avoid chaos in Zhangye. "


    Gao Lan kept encouraging the soldiers. He had to stay at the end of the day.


    "Keep Zhangye!"


    There were soldiers in the army shouting.


    "Keep Zhangye!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Keep Zhangye!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the soldiers in the army cried out one after another. One by one the fighting spirit is more high spirited, incomparable joy. At the moment, although the soldiers'' cheeks were sunken and tired, their energy and spirit were excellent.


    The morale of the army is even higher.


    Gao Lan was relieved to see this scene.


    After he had arranged for the soldiers to be stationed on the night patrol, he let the rest of the soldiers seize the time to rest. Because next, we may have to face the attack of Xianbei and other troops.


    Pound stood beside Gao Lan with blood all over his body and said with a smile, "Lao Gao, you still have a way. You have coaxed all the soldiers by saying so methodically. At least, I can stick to it for a while


    "Coax?"


    Gao Lan couldn''t help laughing and said, "Ling Ming, you''ve said so much with me. In your opinion, all this is false, and I have dealt with it in order to stabilize the morale of the army. "


    "Isn''t it?" said pound


    Pound didn''t believe what Gao Lan said. Zhang Xiu suddenly became king of Qin and killed in Zhangye.


    This is a bit mysterious.


    Gao Lan said: "Ling Ming, I didn''t cheat you. The royal guards who came during the day were not arranged by me, but by the Lord. Not only that, what I just said is true. "


    "Are you serious?" said pound


    "Really


    Gao Lan answered seriously.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Pound burst into laughter with a look of joy on his face and exclaimed, "Damn it, I''ve finally made it. This group of Xianbei and Di people have lived to the top. "


    He was overjoyed.


    During this period of time, I feel extremely depressed. Now I am finally relieved and ready for a counterattack.


    Looking at the excited pound, Gao Lan raised his rough hands and rubbed his cheek. On that tired and thin cheek, there was also a smile of wisdom.


    It''s good that reinforcements are coming!

 Chapter 790

    As time goes by, it''s getting colder and colder in Liangzhou in December.


    By this time, marching had become rather difficult. However, in Zhang Xiu''s army, the soldiers wore thick clothes and even filled their clothes with wool to keep warm.


    Not only that, Zhang Xiu also arranged people to make simple gloves. Although it can not reach the level of sophistication of later generations, it is made simply and can accommodate five fingers. It is filled with some wool, duck down and so on. It is always warm.


    The army was on its way to Zhangye county. As the cold wind roared, the army led by Zhang Xiu was stationed outside the coalition led by Bu Dugen.


    When the army arrived, budugen and others came out.


    Fengji just stands beside budugen.


    Today''s weather, although cold, but there is no snow, the wind is much smaller. It''s a rare winter day with warm sunshine in winter. In winter, the sun comes out. Although it''s not warm on people, at least it''s not too cold.


    Feng Ji went forward and said, "Zhang Xiu, you''ve come from Chang''an to Zhangye. You''re not used to the climate. In particular, if you have committed public anger, you will surely lose this battle. "


    "You are..."


    Zhang Xiu spoke directly.


    He doesn''t have a good memory. He can''t remember the person who spoke.


    When Feng Ji heard Zhang Xiu''s answer, he almost burst out with a mouthful of old blood. He clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, I am Feng Ji, a counselor under Yuan Shao''s account."


    "Oh, it turned out that he was the counselor of Yuan Shao, the defeated general of the king."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined forces to attack Hanoi County under the command of the king. The army led by Yuan Shao was completely defeated and retreated in huaixian county. "


    "Unexpectedly, you came to Liangzhou to stir the wind and rain. Next, the king will lead a large army to attack Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao''s troops could not resist the king. "


    "Then, the king will propose to Yuan Shao the condition of withdrawal, that is, let Yuan Shao personally kill you in front of everyone."


    "You say, what will Yuan Shao do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, showing a cold and fierce intention to kill.


    Fengji said: "wishful thinking!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "you know, in order not to be threatened, Yuan Shao even shot his own son Yuan Tan. In order to protect himself, Yuan Shao killed you Fengji. How can he disagree? What''s more, Yuan Shao didn''t have the courage to refuse. Feng Ji, you''re dead. "


    Every season is like water.


    He knew the truth of Zhang Xiu''s words. Once Zhang Xiu really attacked Jizhou, if Yuan Shao could stop Zhang Xiu, there would be no problem. If Yuan Shao can''t resist Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Xiu puts forward the conditions for Yuan Shao to kill Feng Ji, Yuan Shao is very likely to agree.


    Zhang xiudao: "Fengji, what do you say?"


    "That''s bullshit!"


    Feng Ji answers again.


    In the face of budugen, Di, Qiang and Liangzhou, he could not agree with the current situation. If we agree, what will the coalition forces of the four sides think.


    Feng Ji continued: "Zhang Xiu, if I were you, I would not go to the muddy water of Liangzhou, and I would not take care of it. But now, you are involved in the war in Liangzhou. This battle, you Zhang Xiu will certainly lose


    Zhang xiudao said: "you should tell me, how can I be defeated?"


    Zhang Xiu is always fearless to use his bluff to weaken Xianbei''s allied forces.


    Feng Ji raised his head and said, "Zhang Xiu, why should I tell you. In a word, you are sure to lose the war. Zhang Xiu''s army will be defeated in Xiliang! "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Feng Ji, I''m afraid you forgot a little. I was born in Xiliang, and many of the soldiers under my command were Xiliang sons. You said you would lose in the battle in Xiliang. That''s the real nonsense. In this battle, you will lose! "


    Speaking, shamoko behind Zhang Xiu rushes out.


    Shamoko came to the front, holding the bone of Tribulus terrestris in his hand, looked around the Xianbei people, and exclaimed, "shamoko is here, who dares to fight? His mother, a group of soft eggs, his Highness''s army has not killed, all fled, all fled to Zhangye. Now, keep running


    "A group of people on donkey day!"


    "A bunch of trash!"


    Shamoko''s face was full of disdain. His clothes were thick and warm. He was sitting on horseback with a brier in his hand. He looked around at the Allied forces headed by Xianbei, which he despised very much.


    Bu Dugen gritted his teeth and said, "it''s really rampant. You''d better go forward and take down the head of this Liao for me."


    "Wait a minute, king!"


    Every time I saw this, I immediately stopped.


    Budugen, as one of the three tribes of Xianbei, though not granted by the imperial court, is also a self-supporting king, claiming to be the king of a tribe. Hearing Feng Ji''s words, bu Dugen said in a deep voice: "why?"


    Feng Ji, with a dignified face, replied: "king, the general of Zhang Xiu is good at fighting, especially in fighting. In the old days, the general and Zhang Xiu were at war. It was Zhao Yun under Zhang Xiu who singled out all the generals under the general''s account. ""Now Zhang Xiu has sent shamoke. He''s a big man, and he''s very powerful with a stick of Tribulus terrestris in his hand."


    "Such people are not easy to deal with."


    Feng Ji said: "in my opinion, you don''t have to fight with Zhang Xiu at present. Now, you just need to wait for Zhang Xiu to enter the army, and we can send troops to block it. "


    "No!"


    Budugen shook his head, raised his head, threw his head to the ground and said in a voice: "how can the son of Xianbei tribe be afraid of shamoko?"


    With that, he looked at the lower bone.


    This man has a swallow chin and a tiger beard. He is more than nine feet long and is very big. He was a great general under budugen''s command. After seeing shamoko, he had a look of disdain on his face.


    It''s just shamoko. It''s nothing.


    Guduhou''s waist was wrapped with rope, and he was holding a mace in his hand.


    He rode out slowly.


    He looked at shamoko in front of him. He looked very arrogant and said in a voice: "shamoko, you come to seek death today. I will help you. Everyone said how powerful Zhang Xiu was and how powerful Zhang Xiu''s generals were. Even Zhang Xiu killed Shan Yu of the southern Xiongnu. But in my opinion, Zhang Xiu is just picking up the soft persimmon. Today, you die with this


    After hearing this, shamoko''s face was covered with ferocious intention of killing.


    Drive!!


    Shamoko kicked the horse''s belly and had already killed the horse. He is like an arrow, fast forward, in the hands of the Tribulus terrestris has been in the air.


    Now the weather is cold. When holding the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris, the handle made of fine steel is short, which is a little biting cold. But he didn''t care. As soon as he arrived at guduhou''s body, the flower of Tribulus terrestris was smashed down.


    Guduhou immediately hit back with the mace in his hand.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of impact, in an instant.


    With the sound of the collision, the two men were in a fight.


    A smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    Just now, he was trying out. He didn''t try his best, but he used seven points. Unexpectedly, he blocked the attack of the other side. The reason why he did this, in fact, is to follow Zhang Xiu and learn from her.


    At the beginning, you don''t have to try your best to lure the other side to show their flaws, and then win the other side in one go.


    It''s a clever plan.


    This curtain fell in Fengji''s eyes, but Fengji was suddenly relieved.


    It''s in the way!


    Blocked Zhang Xiu''s general.


    What he was most worried about was that as soon as he went up, he would die in shamoko''s hands.


    Feng Ji clenched his hand and relaxed his face. He gradually became indifferent and had no previous worries. On the contrary, there was a look of expectation on his face.

 Chapter 791

    Bu Dugen rode his horse to the side of Feng Ji and said with a smile: "every military adviser, it seems that you are praising Zhang Xiu. Just now, you said that Zhang Xiu''s people are very powerful and difficult to deal with. Even Yuan Shao killed his son and fought with Zhang Xiu. Now it seems that Yuan Shao is not so good either. "


    Feng Ji took a puff in his cheek.


    His happy mood was destroyed immediately.


    Originally, I thought that guduhou could resist shamoko, but I didn''t expect that budugen came to tease him.


    Feng Ji said: "the last time I did it was Zhao Yun, the younger martial brother of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are unparalleled. It can be said that it is hard to meet an opponent. Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother, that is also powerful. In front of him, shamoko is just an ordinary general. "


    "No, I''m not!"


    Budugen said: "you look at shamoke. He has been following Zhang Xiu all the time, and he is very close to Zhang Xiu. Under this premise, he must be a military general valued by Zhang Xiu."


    One side of GUI, suddenly some regret, early know, he should send up.


    Ah GUI took the words and said, "I have a general Pu Xian under my command. In fact, his strength is also very strong. In my opinion, Pu Xian''s martial arts are better than those of guduhou. Well, I didn''t react just now. I knew that. Let Pu Xian play. "


    Bu Dugen sneered.


    If it''s not for shamoko''s weakness, can you talk?


    One by one, people in the coalition forces made their stand.


    At this time, the hearts of all the people who were hanging in their hearts were stable. When I didn''t see Zhang Xiu, I felt a little uneasy. Even if Fengji pacifies the public, his heart is still bottomless.


    But now see Zhang Xiu, especially Zhang Xiu so young, in such a premise, they think it is not difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu. When people were talking about it, shamoko and guduhou had been fighting for more than ten moves.


    Shamoko has always been pressing on his strength.


    He only used seven points of strength, but he was able to defend against guduhou and even had the chance to fight back. Under such circumstances, shamoko watched secretly, waiting for guduhou to show his flaws, and then took guduhou in one go.


    He wants to make contributions!


    If you want to be dry, just kill guduhou.


    We can''t let all the bones escape.


    If you fight with guduhou now, his strength will increase sharply, which will frighten guduhou. At that time, guduhou directly retreated. He could not catch up with him or kill guduhou.


    So when shamoko resists, he stares at the action of guduhou.


    All of a sudden, shamoko sidled.


    This one side body, make the body of left side expose flaw.


    "Kill


    Bone all Hou in front of a bright, low drink a.


    Then, the mace in guduhou''s hand swung fiercely, and it had already been smashed. As the blow fell, shamoko quickly sidestepped to avoid it. As soon as shamoko dodged, guduhou did not take back the mace, and the mace he had left would sweep away.


    This meal is the time to change strength and move.


    Here''s the chance!


    Shamoko''s heart was filled with joy.


    His hand of the Tribulus terrestris, while the bone Hou change move change strength, huge and full of thorns of the Tribulus terrestris has swung from the right hand, hard hit.


    Hoo!!


    The flower of Tribulus terrestris scuttled in the air, extremely fast, already hanging the sound of breaking the air.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the flower of Tribulus terrestris falls.


    The bone capital marquis is the one who changes his moves before the battle. This time, the moves haven''t been used, and the strength is not good. He had to move up again to intercept the fallen thistle.


    "Dang!"


    Peiran''s great power erupted from the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    Fierce strength, hit bone all Hou a unprepared. He resisted with his previous strength, especially the change of moves just now. When the incident happened in a hurry, the mace in his hand rose, which was only 70% or 80% of his normal strength.


    Originally, the power of guduhou was weaker than that of shamoko. Today, the power is weakened by nearly 30%. Under such a power, the power of guduhou is like a firefly in front of shamoko.


    Under the impact of fierce force, in an instant, the face of Gu Du Hou changed greatly.


    He tried to hold the mace, but in this case, he was completely at a loss. So much so that the mace in his hand was knocked out directly.


    Shamoko''s success has long been predicted. His hands of the Tribulus terrestris bone a retreat, and then like running clouds and flowing water, then again swung up, not bone hou to avoid, it has been mercilessly oblique hit.


    Bang!!


    Tribulus terrestris, hit on the shoulder of guduhou.


    Under the impact of ferocious force, the bone on the shoulder of guduhou was broken. Tribulus terrestris continued to move forward, directly crushing the viscera of guduhou.


    Plop!!


    Guduhou''s body fell to the ground from the horse''s back.


    At the wound, there was blood.


    His body, slightly twitching.


    There was a look of shock on his rough cheek, and even more of panic.Eyes, but gradually dim.


    There is blood in the mouth of guduhou. The next moment, he has lost his breath.


    Shamoko and guduhou fought each other for more than ten moves, and then with one go, they killed guduhou. At this moment, shamoko''s face showed a happy look.


    Useful!


    Sure enough, your Highness''s plan worked.


    Following your highness is to learn tactics.


    He looked up at budugen''s camp and exclaimed, "who dares to fight here?"


    At this moment, budugen and Agui were both wide eyed and wide mouthed, with unexpected expressions on their faces. Just now, guduhou and shamoko fought with equal strength, and it was hard to distinguish between them.


    All of a sudden, guduhou was killed.


    It''s amazing.


    It''s just overwhelming.


    When Ji saw this, he sighed in his heart. Sure enough, he was still like this and he was defeated.


    Just now, Fengji was very happy. He also thought that guduhou could block shamoko''s attack. But I didn''t expect that in the twinkling of an eye, guduhou was defeated again, not only defeated, but also died under shamoko''s Tribulus terrestris.


    It''s just overwhelming.


    Feng Ji advised: "king, under the current situation, it''s not appropriate to continue to compete with Zhang Xiu''s single to single generals. I suggest, go straight to war. We can only be defeated in the war with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Fart!"


    Step into the root of the heart, but not reconciled.


    If he loses, he won''t give up.


    What''s more, guduhou is not the best man under his command.


    Budugen gritted his teeth and said, "to fight on the battlefield, to really win is one or two moves. Guduhou and shamoko had a fight. After blocking, they drifted a little, so they were killed carelessly. It''s not that guduhou is defeated, it''s that guduhou is too careless. "


    Just as budugen was talking, ah GUI squinted and said in a deep voice, "Pu Xian!"


    "Yes


    At this time, another strong man, nine feet away, dressed in a fur coat, with a rough face and a full face, rode out.


    This is Pu Xian, the first general under a GUI.


    Ah GUI said, "go up and take the life of shamocco for me. Remember, I want shamoco''s head. If I don''t get shamoco''s head back, I don''t have to come back. "


    "Here it is


    Pu Xian is ready to fight.


    Pu Xian''s weapon is a golden back sword with iron rings on the back. With the waving of the blade, the iron ring and the blade collide, which can affect people''s mind.


    With a knife in his hand and a kick on the horse''s back, he had already driven the horse out.

 Chapter 792

    Bu Dugen was very satisfied with a GUI''s arrangement. He looked at Pu Xian and said, "a GUI, how sure are you that Pu Xian will win this time."


    "I will win!"


    Ah GUI answered in a loud voice.


    The current situation, he thinks, is inevitable.


    Budugen said, "I''ll see!"


    In a short time, Pu Xian had already come to shamoko. In his hand, the golden back broadsword was empty, and the blade of the broadsword went out, cutting it horizontally. Shamoke Tribulus terrestris is directly blocked.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    The next moment, Puxian''s blade slides along the end of the handle and cuts directly into shamoko''s palm.


    Shamoko was also a man of great experience. He let go of his left hand and held the flower of Tribulus terrestris in his right hand. His right hand swept with the wind.


    Pu Xian''s sword moves changed and he quickly blocked back.


    Taking advantage of this opportunity, shamoko opened up the distance with Pu Xian. In his eyes, there was a flash of light. The strength of the people in front of him was not weak, at least stronger than that of guduhou. He didn''t keep his hand. The iron thistle in his hand was thrown down.


    "Dang!"


    The impact of the weapon, more Mars splash.


    With the help of the power of impact, shamoko once again smashed down with the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    "Dang! Dang


    The sound of crashing is heard all the time.


    At the moment, like a blacksmith, shamoco waves the bone of Tribulus terrestris tirelessly and falls down. The sword in Pu Xian''s hand, however, was stable and did not fall.


    "Come again!"


    Shamoko saw that the other side''s strength was not weak, and his fighting spirit was gradually high.


    He was more and more happy.


    This is a rare opportunity.


    He waves like the wind and goes to Puxian tirelessly.


    The fight between the two is hard style, there is no escape, it is a hard collision. Although the palm of shamoko''s hand had already felt numb, his fighting spirit was more and more high on his rough face.


    As the king of Wuxi barbarians, shamoko has never lacked fighting spirit, not to mention ruthlessness. Not only to the enemy, but also to ourselves.


    The strength of the other side is equal to that of him.


    Shamoko is not afraid.


    He is completely regardless of their own defense, Tribulus terrestris bone move down, into the tide like, a wave higher than a wave. Even though the opponent''s strength is not weak, which makes him feel torn, and even his arms are weak, he is not afraid.


    He wants to fight!


    He wants to kill the enemy!


    This is the meaning of his existence!


    He likes the pleasure of fighting on the battlefield, and the cheerfulness of bloodletting on the battlefield.


    "Kill


    Shamoko is crazy and completely immersed in his own attack. He didn''t notice that there was blood in his palm. After the tiger''s mouth was torn, it had spilled blood and dyed the end of the handle red. However, shamoko didn''t care. He only had a sense of war in his eyes.


    The same is true of Pu Xian.


    But Pu Xian''s eyes were full of fear and fear.


    What a terrible shamoko.


    Pu Xian''s hands were torn, especially the muscles in his arms. Even his bones were cracked. It was just that shamoko''s attack was getting stronger and stronger. Even under the continuous attack, he didn''t even have the chance to withdraw, which made Puxian unable to withdraw.


    He''s near the limit.


    He was almost unstoppable.


    Seeing the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris fall again, Pu Xian clenched his teeth, raised the knife in his hand again, and met it fiercely.


    "Dang!"


    There was a piercing crash.


    Pu Xian groaned. Under the impact of the indestructible force, he could no longer hold the golden back sword in his hand. The sword was knocked away, and Pu Xian just felt his blood churning. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.


    Tribulus terrestris, continue to fall.


    Pu Xian quickly turned to an iron bridge behind him. The thorn of the bone of the Tribulus terrestris swept past Pu Xian''s cheek, and then hit the horse''s head on his crotch.


    Bang!!


    There was a dull crash.


    Under the impact of the Tribulus terrestris, the horse''s head immediately broke, and the horse fell to the ground.


    Pu Xian also fell directly.


    Shamoko spurs his horse forward, and the horse comes to Puxian, while shamoko''s Tribulus terrestris has fallen. Puxian a carp roll to avoid, but the bone of the Tribulus terrestris is like a gangrene attached to the bone, followed by a bang, it severely hit Puxian''s tail vertebrae.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Pu Xian''s mouth.


    The bone of the Tribulus terrestris pierced into the flesh and broke the pain of the caudal vertebrae, which made Pu Xian stagger to the ground. The whole person''s caudal vertebrae was dripping with blood.Shamoko didn''t give up, but the iron tribulus was thrown down.


    Bang!


    The bone flower of Tribulus terrestris smashed on Pu Xian''s back. At that time, he had already broken his back and smashed his internal organs. Pu Xian''s body twitched twice, and then he was lying on the ground. There was no movement, only the blood flowing from Pu Xian''s back.


    Pu Xian, die!


    After shamoko killed Pu Xian, he looked up to the sky and roared. His eyes were red, and he was completely free of himself. He tried his best to roar: "shamoko is here, who dares to fight? Who dares to fight


    Shamoko stood on horseback, as fierce as a demon.


    This kind of shamoko makes a GUI''s cheek twitch. You know, Pu Xian is the first strong general under his command. He is invincible among the Di people with a golden sword.


    Now, it''s just three or two.


    Bu Dugen also frowned, sighed and said, "I knew earlier. I should have listened to Feng Junshi''s advice. The people under Zhang Xiu''s command are just like demons. They are so terrible. "


    Feng Ji said: "king, there is a difference between the previous attack and the present attack. Previously, we had no war with Zhang Xiu, and our morale was stable. But now, shamoko killed two people. The soldiers in the army are afraid of shamoko, and even more afraid of Zhang Xiu. "


    Budugen said, "what should I do then?"


    Feng Ji shook his head and said, "I can''t help it. Now it''s the first World War. We didn''t win Gao Lan and pound. We didn''t stop Zhang Xiu. Now, it can only be a face-to-face fight again. Fortunately, we have far more troops than Zhang Xiu. This is our strength. "


    Bu Dugen looked at the crowd and said, "what do you think?"


    They all agreed with Feng Ji''s words.


    Budugen said: "every military commander, the next war is under your command. In this battle, we have to win. Only win, not lose. If we lose, you know what will happen to us. "


    Feng Ji nodded, stroked his beard, and ordered: "king, you muster all the Xianbei troops under your command to fight now. During this period of time, the king has been recruiting soldiers, and is also gathering up the scattered troops from all over the world. The troops under your command have exceeded 20000. This force, the most elite, is a direct impact on Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    He''s not going to defend, he''s going to attack.


    Budugen didn''t hesitate. If he wanted to win the war, he could only fight one. So budugen directly ordered more than 20000 Xianbei soldiers under his command to fight.


    After Feng Ji arranged for budugen''s soldiers to fight, he immediately sent all the powerful troops under his command to the battlefield and followed the Xianbei soldiers.


    As a matter of fact, the powerful forces from all over the country are now gathered in Zhangye County, and the number of these forces has exceeded 20000. It''s just that the heroic forces have gathered together, and their level of sharpness is not comparable to that of the Xianbei soldiers. Therefore, Fengji let the heroic forces of more than 20000 soldiers come close behind.


    In this way, a total of 40000 troops were killed and directly attacked Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Shamoke had already returned to Zhang Xiu and said: "Lord, Fengji is completely desperate. What shall we do next? "


    "Tooth for tooth, of course!"


    Zhang Xiu flatly ordered: "Gan Ning, lead your fierce tiger army to fight."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered, without any hesitation. He personally led 30000 fierce tigers out of the army with his sword, and went to kill more than 40000 enemies.

 Chapter 793

    Thirty thousand fierce tigers, all veterans on the battlefield, have been used to fighting for a long time. Although they all hang their heads around their waists, their corresponding efforts have their own benefits.


    Soldiers who kill the enemy on the battlefield can get rich rewards. In particular, today''s Zhang Xiu is no longer a Taiwei, but the king of Qin, who has jurisdiction over several States and can give them more awards.


    One by one soldiers, along with Gan Ning, whimpered forward.


    Ganning''s knife had been swung up, and the horse was sprinting rapidly. As the chief General of the fierce tiger army, he has always been a pioneer, and now the fast sprint has been in the front.


    When approaching Xianbei''s enemy, Gan Ning already bent down, with his sword hanging down a little, and then bent down to exert his power. The sword was lifted up from the bottom to the top.


    "Yes


    The blade cuts into a soldier''s body.


    In a flash, blood splashed, Xianbei soldiers were directly killed and fell to the ground.


    Ganning went straight into the crowd.


    Some of the Xianbei soldiers brought by budugen were cavalry and some were infantry. The cavalry was at the front, followed by the infantry. In fact, the fierce tiger army under Ganning was the same, with cavalry in the front and infantry in the back.


    The fighting between the two sides started with cavalry.


    The reason why the cavalry on the grassland is so powerful is that they come and go like the wind, can completely disperse, and can fight back and forth. But now the Xianbei cavalry under budugen''s command are all swarming forward, and they don''t give full play to the power of the cavalry on the grassland.


    After fighting with the cavalry of the fierce tiger army, the two sides fought at close range, one by one, the fierce tiger army continued to fight with their swords. In particular, the soldiers in the fierce tiger army used to use the military array, three people for a while, five people for a group, constantly killing forward.


    Loose Xianbei cavalry, in front of the fierce tiger army camp, is completely vulnerable.


    "Kill


    Ganning roared, he kept killing.


    Behind Gan Ning, the soldiers had already been killed.


    When infantry and cavalry are mixed up to kill, the fighting on the battlefield is like a meat grinder, mixing all the participants in the war.


    Under the warm winter sun, there is a vast expanse of white around.


    Splash of blood, so that the vast white earth, suddenly more vitality in general.


    The cry of killing broke the peace of winter.


    Two armies fighting in a regiment, constantly fighting.


    No matter Bu Dugen, Feng Ji, or Zhang Xiu, they are all concerned about the changes in the situation on the battlefield. Zhang Xiu watched Gan Ning lead the fierce tiger army to fight, especially the soldiers belonging to the fierce tiger army, who were constantly moving forward and began to compress the battlefield. Such a situation is a precursor to victory.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is excellent.


    This battle will be won!


    But the expression on Feng Ji''s face was quite serious.


    Feng Jishen said in a voice: "ah GUI, you lead all the Di people, and immediately fight from the right wing to attack Zhang Xiu''s middle army. Today''s Di people are more than 20000 elite. This force is enough to kill you. "


    "Here it is


    Ah GUI didn''t retort, so he answered directly.


    Because under the current situation, he must win. Only when he wins, can he be king in Liangzhou. If he is defeated by Zhang Xiu, there will be no room for him or the rest of the Di people to survive.


    "Kill


    As soon as a GUI patted the horse''s back, he led the soldiers out of the camp.


    Feng Ji looked at the powerful leader Zhong Yan and ordered: "now, clan leader Zhong, you should lead all the Qiang people and the remaining powerful private soldiers. There are about 20000 people from the right wing of the battlefield to attack Zhang Xiu''s central army. You and a GUI together, direct attack, will be able to win


    "Here it is


    Zhong Yan should be down immediately.


    Zhong Yan led more than 20000 soldiers to fight out.


    At this moment, there were not many troops around him, and there were only a thousand soldiers left to guard.


    This is the final force.


    The four armies of Haoqiang, Di, Xianbei and Qiang have no reservation and have all been put into the battlefield.


    Feng Ji clenched his fist with sharp eyes.


    He''s waiting for the fight.


    If this war fails, it means that even if he weakens Zhang Xiu''s forces, he will not be able to gain a foothold in Liangzhou. Although Fengji''s task in Liangzhou is only to weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength, he is not only satisfied with it. He hopes to win and even separate Liangzhou from Zhang Xiu''s territory.


    This is a big win.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Feng Ji had exhausted his soldiers to fight, he raised a smile at the corner of his mouth. He also ordered: "Chen Dao, the army of Langya camp under your command is divided into two teams to fight against the left and right wings of the army."


    "Here it is


    When Chen arrived, he immediately responded.


    Immediately, Chen Zhi divided the soldiers of Langya camp into two. Now Chen Dao''s Langya camp has 20000 infantry and 10000 cavalry.Chen Dao''s division of forces is not evenly distributed, because such a distribution is not of great significance. He directly mobilized 20000 infantry to resist the di army from the left. Then, he dispatched 10000 cavalry of Langya camp to resist the Qiang people and some powerful soldiers.


    At this moment, the army under Zhang Xiu''s command is also completely out.


    Midang follows Zhang Xiu. He looks at the killing on the battlefield and says: "King Qin, now the army has begun to fight. When will the three thousand burning soldiers under my command join the war? "


    "Don''t worry!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "for the time being, it''s not sure whether there is ambush in Fengji. Leaving your shaodang Qiang and a little Pro guard is to prevent possible raids. "


    Midang nodded and said nothing more.


    Everything is arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the battlefield. Today, fighting in the center of the battlefield is guided by Gan Ning. There is Gan Ning in town. He has already begun to crush and kill the soldiers of budugen Xianbei.


    The fight between the left and right wings, because of the infantry on the left, can not see the outcome for the moment, but the ten thousand cavalry on the right rushed into the Qiang people and powerful private soldiers. Under the fierce cavalry, one by one Qiang people kept howling, and then retreated everywhere, which could not be resisted at all.


    In the face of the cavalry''s spurt, it was difficult for them to fight. Even though there were more than 20000 soldiers here, they were unable to resist the front of Langya camp and began to retreat.


    This scene fell into the eyes of Feng Ji.


    His eyes were cold when he met Ji.


    His heart, constantly sinking. Although his heart, just ready to weaken Zhang Xiu, did not say that we must win. But when it comes to the end, looking at the decline of the Chinese Army''s fighting and the constant rout of the right-wing soldiers, his heart is also extremely lost, because in the current situation, he also wants to win, and he is not willing to leave in a defeated posture.


    "Beat the drum to cheer up the soldiers in the army."


    Fengji''s hasty order.


    "Dong! Dong


    The battle drum, the mighty sound, is just the sound of the battle drum resounding on the battlefield, and it can''t recover the decadent morale of the army, and it can''t stop the defeated posture and keep retreating.


    Bu Dugen gritted his teeth and looked nervous. He said in a hurry: "Fengji, the army is going to be defeated. My soldiers are constantly killed. Now, what do you want to do? "


    "No way


    Feng Ji clenched his teeth and said, "if the messenger goes down and kills one enemy, he will be rewarded with 100 yuan; if he kills two enemies, he will be rewarded with 400 yuan; if he kills three enemies, he will be rewarded with 800 yuan, and so on."


    This is the last resort.


    To reward the soldiers under his command, with the intention of reversing the situation and stabilizing the current situation.

 Chapter 794

    In a short period of time, the soldiers under his command rallied their spirits and tried their best to resist, but they were killed in a decent way. But after fighting for a while, the spirit that was invigorated by the heavy reward was completely destroyed in front of his life, and he could no longer support and resist.


    If you want to get money, you have to have a life to get it.


    How can I get the reward when my life is gone?


    So the situation of rout reappeared, and more and more Xianbei soldiers, powerful private soldiers, and Qiang Di soldiers began to retreat, unwilling to resist.


    I can''t stop it at all.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    A GUI, the di king of Xingguo Di, was unable to hold fast and gave the order to retreat. Surrounded by soldiers, he retreated quickly, unwilling to resist.


    This retreat is the prelude to the collapse of the retreat.


    "Withdraw!"


    "Retreat!"


    On the other hand, Zhong Yan, the leader of the powerful family, had a bitter look on his face and was unwilling to order the retreat. He is a powerful man in Liangzhou. Now that he retreats, it means that they are completely defeated and can no longer stay in Liangzhou.


    Budugen is from Xianbei. His stronghold is not in Liangzhou. After evacuation, he can go to Bingzhou, where he has his old nest. Fengji can also leave. After all, Fengji is Yuan Shao''s counselor.


    But their roots are in Liangzhou.


    Now that we are defeated, we have to leave our hometown to make a living.


    With the retreat of Agui, Zhong Yan and other soldiers, and the retreat of Xianbei soldiers in the middle, the whole battlefield is already full of troops. They continue to retreat and dare not resist.


    "Kill


    Ganning is already driving the horse to cover up.


    The cavalry of the fierce tiger army under his command, like wolves, tigers and leopards, entered the retreating crowd and constantly killed the retreating people.


    On the other hand, the cavalry of Langya camp also began to kill.


    With the pursuit of the two cavalry, the retreating Xianbei, Diren and other allied forces were constantly covered up. Where they passed, the defenders were overwhelming, and no one could defend them. The soldiers who fell behind were killed one after another.


    One by one, those who have fallen behind have begun to surrender.


    No more resistance.


    Many people surrendered, but the cover up of Langya camp and the fierce tiger army never stopped, and they were still moving forward. Zhang Xiu led the soldiers forward and began to take all the surrender soldiers in the rear of the hall.


    At this time, the collapse of the whole battlefield also fell in the eyes of Feng Ji and bu Dugen.


    "Alas..."


    Feng Ji sighed and said: "step to root, withdraw. This battle is completely defeated. "


    "This, this..."


    Budugen was biting his teeth, very angry.


    He traveled thousands of miles to Liangzhou, not for money or food, but for dominating Liangzhou and becoming the ruler of Liangzhou.


    But in the end, he failed.


    Budugen is not willing to retreat, but the current situation, he had to retreat, full of depression, unable to vent out, gritted his teeth, retreating words, to the mouth, but can not say. However, when the soldiers retreated on the battlefield, Dugen had to retreat.


    He has no choice!


    "Withdraw, withdraw!"


    Bu Dugen gave the order, and his straight waist bent down. He could not be as straight as before. He was tired, helpless and sighing.


    This time I sneaked into Liangzhou, but I couldn''t get rid of it.


    With the order of budugen, the army began to retreat.


    Fengji retreats with budugen.


    With the retreat of the whole army, the whole allied forces of Xianbei, Di, Qiang and Haoqiang were still in constant rout and could not be held.


    The situation of the war is one defeat after another.


    Budugen looked at his soldiers in the rear. Countless people were killed and surrendered. He sighed. When he looked back, his eyes suddenly shrank and he roared: "Zhong Yan, retreat quickly, someone is catching up."


    Thirty paces behind budugen, Zhong Yan led the powerful private soldiers to retreat.


    In the rear of Zhong Yan, Chen Ran after him again.


    At the beginning, Chen Dao didn''t confirm Zhong Yan''s identity, but when he took the soldiers to chase him, he saw that Zhong Yan was protected by private soldiers, so he decided that Zhong Yan was a big fish and went straight to Zhong Yan.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the distance between the two sides is less than ten steps away.


    Chen to the hands of a long gun, constantly sweeping, just listen to the bang bang sound, Zhong Yan''s Pro guards have been killed.


    Zhong Yan also found Chen Dao.


    With a look of panic on his face, he immediately arranged for his personal guards to come forward to stop him. However, the personal guards who came forward to stop him were not Chen Dao''s enemies at all. Chen Dao killed them directly when they met each other.


    When Chen arrived at Zhong Yan, the long gun went up and one shot went forward.Zhong Yan quickly raised his knife.


    "Dang!"


    The blade hit the point of the gun and knocked the point of the gun away.


    Zhong Yan resists for a while, then continues to run forward, only Chen Dao''s long gun turns in the air, then stabs out again. The speed of this shot was much faster than just now. In a twinkling of an eye, it reached Zhong Yan''s back.


    For a moment, it was hard to resist.


    He quickly leaned forward. When he just fell on the horse''s back, the tip of the gun just came to the front of him. Just for a moment, Chen Dao''s big gun tilted back slightly, and the tip of the gun stabbed out.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun pierced Zhong Yan''s back.


    A gun then, penetrated the heart of Zhong Yan, with the agitation of the gun tip, Zhong Yan heart rupture. The injured place, when the long gun was drawn out, was already spattered with blood, like a spring gushing out.


    The expression on Zhong Yan''s face was extremely painful. He held the horse''s neck with both hands, intending to stabilize his body. But he didn''t know what was the feeling of fatigue from his body and dizziness in his brain. As soon as his hand was released, his body plopped and he fell to the ground.


    After Chen Dao killed Zhong Yan, he went on.


    At this time, many people found that Zhong Yan was killed. They were even more panicked and kept running around. There are also many powerful private soldiers who have already begun to surrender and are no longer fleeing or resisting. They are no longer afraid to run away.


    Budugen was in the front of the evacuation, he looked back again, just to see Zhong Yan was killed, heart sorry.


    What a pity!


    If Zhong could escape, he would have another comrade in arms.


    Budugen''s eyes turned, and he looked back at Agui not far away. As soon as he saw it, he opened his eyes again, because he saw Gan Ning, the leader of the former tiger army, who had gone straight to ah GUI.


    Budugen once again called out to remind him, but there were shouts on the battlefield one after another. There were screams, there were shouts of killing. In a flash, budugen''s voice had been suppressed and could not be heard any more.


    At the moment, GUI is retreating rapidly.


    There are many soldiers around him.


    Gan Ning is holding a knife and his eyes are extremely sharp. He pats his horse and goes straight to a GUI. Because when he was arrayed earlier, he saw Ah GUI and knew that it was a big fish.


    He wants to kill GUI.


    Gan Ning galloped his horse, and the horse in his crotch moved forward rapidly. The distance between him and a GUI was getting closer. When the distance was less than ten steps, the soldiers under a GUI had come to resist, but they were all killed by Gan Ning.


    No one is the enemy of Ganning.


    The blade is stained with blood.


    After seeing this, ah GUI estimated the distance between himself and Gan Ning, especially between the two sides, which was less than six or seven steps. Ah GUI was flustered. He wanted to find someone for help, but even the guards around him fled. Seeing that he couldn''t escape and that there was no one to help him, he yelled, "I surrender. I''m willing to surrender. Don''t kill me!"

 Chapter 795

    A GUI didn''t dare to stop for fear of being killed, so he ran and roared. As long as Gan Ning said that he would not kill him, he would immediately stop to surrender and would not run.


    It''s so hard.


    He shouldn''t have made trouble if he had known now.


    He xingguodi in the territory of Jincheng County, although there is no rich, although there is no countless beauty singer. But at least, it''s a matter of food and clothing, and it''s also the head of a tribe.


    But now, it''s like a lost dog.


    It''s a terrible day.


    Ganning heard a GUI''s words, and a sneer rose from the corner of his mouth. He didn''t take care of a GUI''s words at all. He just rushed forward. The distance between him and a GUI is six or seven steps. In this short distance, he slapped the horse on the back and the horse darted forward. It was already close. Ganning swung his sword sideways and cut it off quickly.


    Ah GUI''s sword in his hand, he quickly picked up the block.


    "Dang!"


    The two knives collided with each other. In a flash, the fierce force burst out, and ah GUI''s knife was knocked out directly.


    Ganning''s knife goes on.


    "Yes


    The blade fell on a GUI''s arm and made a bloodstain.


    The blood overflowed and dyed his clothes red.


    Ah GUI''s face, full of fear and fear, roared: "don''t kill me, don''t kill me. I am the king of xingguodi. As long as I give orders, xingguodi will surrender. "


    "You are more damned!"


    Gan Ning heard a GUI''s words and gritted his teeth.


    After he entered Liangzhou, he was familiar with the general situation of Liangzhou and knew that xingguodi was a team in Jincheng county. Such a team, occupying the territory of Jincheng County, plundered women and plundered goods, leaving countless people homeless.


    Ah GUI should be killed!


    The distance between Gan Ning and a GUI was less than two steps. He swung his sword and cut it off again.


    There is no weapon in a GUI''s hand. He pulls the reins of the horse forward and leans back to avoid the oblique cut. All of a sudden, ah GUI saw Gan Ning''s knife in the air, and then turned to stand down.


    At this moment, ah GUI can''t avoid it.


    In desperation, on the right side of GUI''s body, he rolled down from his horse.


    Plop!!


    After a GUI fell to the ground, the horse quickly ran down, his body suddenly seemed to be scattered, and his whole body was sore. But he didn''t dare to delay. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain of his body. A carp straightened out and stood up. Then he was ready to run into the crowd. As long as he ran into the crowd, he could escape.


    Herod!!


    All of a sudden, just at this moment, the horse came hissing.


    The next moment, a huge figure, has come to the back of a GUI, making a GUI unavoidable.


    "Boom!"


    The horse hit ah GUI hard.


    Under the huge impact, ah GUI screamed and vomited blood in his mouth. His body flew forward and fell to the ground. GUI fell on the ground, a face has changed shape, the whole person incomparable pain. He was struggling, biting his teeth and suffering. Now, he only felt that his internal organs had been displaced, and even the internal organs in his body might have cracks, because there was no pain all over his body, as if it was like needle pricking everywhere.


    This is what GUI looks like.


    However, GUI did not dare to delay. He had an endless desire to survive. He wants to run away, to escape to the crowd, and then to avoid the pursuit of Ganning.


    A GUI stands up stumbling.


    Just as he stood up and was about to take steps, another huge figure rushed to one side. Gan Ning galloped to the side of a GUI again. He swung the long knife in his hand and cut it out directly.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cuts a GUI''s neck.


    The next moment, ah GUI''s head soared into the sky, with blood splashing like spring water, crossed an arc in the air, and then fell to the ground.


    The headless corpse staggered twice and fell to the ground.


    After Gan Ning killed ah GUI, he roared: "ah GUI, King Di of Xingguo, is killed. Follow me to kill him!"


    He cried out to kill.


    The news of ah GUI''s death spread constantly, and the soldiers of Xingguo Di were even more defeated when they heard it. Originally, xingguodi had suffered countless losses and was killed. Now when he learned that Agui was killed, he was defeated. Even more, countless people surrender, and no one dares to fight again.


    Budugen turns around and finds the defeated GUI. He looks sad and worried. He began to worry about his situation. Now he came to Liangzhou quietly. He was in high spirits when he came here, but now he is running away in a hurry, and even his soldiers and horses have suffered countless losses.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Budugen retreated all the way. At this time, he retreated to the east of Zhangye county.


    As long as he withdraws from the county seat, he can go all the way East, then leave Weiwu county and go to Bingzhou. As long as you enter Bingzhou and have Gaolan to take care of you, you will escape.Along the way, the number of soldiers around budugen was small.


    Not even six thousand.


    Because many soldiers did not dare to retreat with them. Instead, they fled around for fear of being slaughtered. In addition, countless soldiers have surrendered, so there are not many soldiers under budugen.


    They evacuated quickly. When they left Liuli road eastward, the official road became narrower and no longer a vast place. Because the official road ahead is between the two mountains. It is at the foot of the two rolling and bare mountains that the official road is about ten feet wide.


    Bu Dugen looked back and saw that although there were many fewer soldiers in the rear, it seemed that there was still a certain distance to pursue them. He was also relieved.


    It''s time to get out!


    As long as he escapes, he has a chance to start again.


    "King, there are people on the official road ahead."


    All of a sudden, there were soldiers shouting.


    Budugen looked forward, and he had excellent eyesight. Although he was more than 100 feet away, he still saw the position of the hillside from a distance, with a flag.


    On the banner, there is a big flag with the word "Qin".


    Qin represents Zhang Xiu, the king of Qin.


    Next to the big Qin flag, there is the big flag embroidered with high characters. In the cold wind, the big flag is hunting with the wind. On the official road, there is an army standing in array.


    The leader is Gao Lan. Beside Gao Lan, there stands pound in armor.


    Behind them, four thousand elite soldiers lined up.


    Gao Lan heard from Zhang Xiu yesterday that he was no longer holding on to the food supply, but killing chickens and sheep to satisfy the soldiers. Today, when the army that got budugen fought Zhang Xiu, Gao Lan had a prediction. After deciding that budugen was defeated, he must go to the east of Zhangye to break through the encirclement. So early on, he had quietly ambushed here with his soldiers.


    This is Gao Lan''s prediction.


    Facts have proved that his prediction is correct.


    In particular, although there are only four thousand soldiers left under Gao Lan''s command, these four thousand soldiers have long been veterans of the army after countless wars and battles.


    Most importantly, they fought with budugen several times, and countless of their comrades died in budugen''s hands.


    They want revenge!


    They want revenge!


    Today is their chance to revenge.


    Today, when you kill!

 Chapter 796

    Gao Lan stood on the side of the army, forgetting the Xianbei army, whose eyes were fast approaching, with a strong sense of killing in his eyes. He pointed to the front with his sword in his hand, and suddenly exclaimed: "sons, we have been in Zhangye County for two months."


    "Every day for these two months, I''ve been on tenterhooks."


    "In these two months, every battle has killed people."


    "In the past two months, I''ve been eating too much and I haven''t had enough."


    "In these two months, it''s very hard to defend the city every time."


    "But in the end, we survived. We all succeeded in waiting for the arrival of King Qin. It can be said that we have won, but in fact, we have not avenged ourselves, because the enemy is still ahead. "


    Gao Lan''s voice became more hysterical: "the enemy is coming. Budugen and Fengji are just ahead. Today is the time for revenge. How dare you fight? "


    "Kill


    Pound was in the army, shouting with his knife.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    Countless soldiers yelled, and their faces burst out with fierce intention to kill. One by one, they were holding knives, and their sharp eyes were like hungry wolves staring at food.


    One after another, the shouting went up into the sky.


    "Kill


    Gao Lan Dao points forward and gives an order.


    At the moment when the order was just given, a high glance at the horse''s back on his hip was like an arrow from the string.


    "Kill


    Pound followed.


    There were more than 600 cavalry in the rear, followed by pound and Gaolan.


    The other three thousand were infantry.


    More than three thousand infantry whined and kept rushing forward.


    This scene is magnificent.


    This attack, like a torrent of water, went directly to the army where budugen was.


    Budugen frowned. Seeing that the enemy''s forces were not too many, he slowed down slightly. Then he let his cavalry speed up and prepare to break through the cavalry and infantry led by Gaolan and pound, so that he could break through.


    Budugen is not willing to entangle.


    He wants to retreat!


    Once blocked in here, wait for Zhang Xiu to lead the army to kill, at that time, he certainly can''t escape.


    When the Xianbei cavalry under budugen met the 600 cavalry led by Gao Lan and pound, the Xianbei cavalry under budugen''s command was defeated constantly and was directly cut through.


    Even though there are a large number of cavalry in budugen, they have been killed bravely after a while of fighting. Now the soldiers are fighting in vain. In fact, they are empty and have no deterrent power at all.


    In particular, Gao Lan and pound led the army. Whether they were Gao Lan, pound or 600 cavalry, they all hated Xianbei people and wanted to take revenge.


    So the morale is even stronger.


    This is not only the division of hundred battles, but also the division of revenge!


    The army kept moving forward, cutting down the Xianbei cavalry, while pound galloped with a knife, getting closer and closer to budugen.


    The two sides are only more than 30 steps away.


    But beside budugen, there are soldiers to protect him to ensure his safety.


    Pound roared, "Gao, cover me. I''m going to kill budugen."


    He was shouting.


    Pound alone, even if he killed him, he would easily fall into the siege of Xianbei people. Even pound is not afraid, but in the current situation, it will waste time. In case of a run, it is not cost-effective.


    Gao Lan said directly, "OK, I''ll cover you!"


    Gao Lan believes in Pound''s martial arts. When it comes to his attainments in martial arts, pound is much more powerful than him. In this case, he is responsible for the cover, and pound is responsible for killing budugen, which is the most appropriate arrangement.


    Gao Lan took a few cavalry with him and rushed forward with pound.


    "Kill


    Pound kept sprinting forward.


    Gao Lan followed him and took a guard to kill the Xianbei cavalry around pound to avoid the influence of Xianbei cavalry on pound. This formation is going straight to budugen.


    When budugen saw this behind the scenes, he was also alarmed. He didn''t want to die here, so he cried out, "come on, come on, stop. I''ll kill Gao Lan and pound."


    The guards around him came forward quickly.


    One by one, the guards came forward and formed a fan-shaped defense, blocking pound and budugen.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Pound, with his knife in his hand, did not move forward.


    When he rushed to the front, the sword in his hand had already swung like lightning, and then he slashed it obliquely. This knife is not only sharp but also endlessly powerful. After a knife cut down, it had already hit the blade of Xianbei cavalry.


    Heavy impact, Xianbei cavalry knife was knocked away, the sword continued to fall, split on the shoulder of Xianbei cavalry.I''m sorry!


    The blade cut the skin of Xianbei cavalry, broke into the muscle, and cut the chest directly along the shoulder.


    The blood spattered and the soldiers fell to the ground.


    Pound could not bear to see the soldiers killed, still carrying a knife, constantly forward. He took a knife in his hand and kept killing the Xianbei cavalry in front of him. Especially on the left and right wings, there was Gao Lan and others guarding him, so that pound kept on rushing forward. In a twinkling of an eye, the distance was less than 15 steps.


    Its offensive is extremely fierce.


    Budugen was so scared that he sent people forward again. He did not dare to stay in the same place. Instead, he turned the dock and began to run to the northwest of this place.


    Pound went straight after him.


    The horse in his crotch, with four hooves swinging, kept accelerating. In the twinkling of an eye, the distance from budugen was less than ten steps. At this time pound was breathing more and more quickly.


    Here''s the chance!


    This is the chance to kill budugen.


    Pound kept beating his horse on the back, and the horse in his crotch quickly drew closer to budugen. When the distance between the two sides was less than three steps away, Budu was panicked, but he was not afraid. He raised his sword in his hand, clamped his legs on the horse''s belly, and the horse in his crotch stopped with Herod''s hissing.


    Budu is like running clouds and flowing water, turning around is a knife.


    This move of turning around and wielding a knife is extremely pure, because it is one of his unique skills of turning around and killing the enemy. Just at the moment when budugen turned around to wave his sword, Pound''s long sword was lifted from the bottom to the top, and the blade went up and hit budugen''s blade.


    Although budugen has a good command of martial arts, in fact, it''s just ordinary.


    In front of pound, budugen''s martial arts is like a mole ant. The collision of the blade directly knocks budugen''s sword. After pound gained power, the horse in his crotch had stopped.


    Pound''s knife turned, and he cut it off with one knife.


    The knife fell on budugen''s left shoulder. Just listen to Yila, bu Dugen''s left shoulder and arm were all cut off, and his blood splashed out like a spring, and bu Dugen roared bitterly.


    Endless pain, make step root pain.


    Pound''s face, however, looked like an iceberg. There was no change at all. After a knife fell, it fell again at the moment when it was too late for him to escape.


    Puchi!


    The blade enters the flesh and cuts into budugen''s right shoulder. The blade cuts down and budugen''s right shoulder falls down.


    Red blood, splashing again.


    At this moment, blood overflowed from his left and right shoulders, and he could no longer stand on the horse''s back. His bare body fell directly to the ground.


    After the fall of step root, the body continues to twitch pain. He had no arms, but he could not stand up. He watched pound turn over, dismount and stop beside him. His face was full of fear.


    He doesn''t want to die!


    He hasn''t lived enough!


    He is the king of Xianbei in the West. He has tens of thousands of sons under his command. He can''t die in Liangzhou.

 Chapter 797

    Even though his arms were cut off, bu Dugen still didn''t want to die. The look on his face, even full of pain; the eyes in his eyes, even with deep regret; his arms, even with blood. However, he still wanted to survive, he said in a loud voice: "I surrender, don''t kill me, don''t kill me!"


    He yelled, hoping pound would spare him.


    As long as you live, there''s always a chance.


    Even if you live like a dog, you are still alive. Once you die, there is nothing left.


    This is budugen''s idea.


    Pound''s eyes were cold, and he said in a deep voice, "if you can still live well and let you enjoy your life, how can I face my dead brother and my dead brother?"


    "Death


    Pound''s sword had fallen from his mouth.


    The point of the knife was thrust down.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the knife pierces the chest armor of budugen and penetrates into the heart.


    A little blood splashed out at once.


    With the sword drawn out of Pound''s hand, the red blood splashed out like a spring and dyed his clothes red. At this moment, budugen''s body was twitching, and he opened his mouth to speak. But when the words reached his mouth, there was blood in his throat, which made him make a sound in his throat.


    A moment later, when his head tilted, there was no sound.


    Pound, holding his bloody knife, exclaimed, "budugen is dead, kill me!"


    With Pound''s order, the soldiers under his command are fighting with high morale and constantly fighting forward. On the contrary, the Xianbei soldiers under budugen''s command were in chaos.


    Budugen is their king.


    Now, budugen is dead, and all Xianbei soldiers are in a mess.


    "Run away!"


    In the army, there are soldiers shouting.


    All the soldiers under budugen''s command were in a mess, rushing around with the intention of breaking out.


    However, the former soldiers led by pound blocked the road, and the cavalry under Zhang Xiu had come after them. The two armies were surrounded, and the soldiers of Xianbei people couldn''t escape and were killed one after another.


    In the crowd, too.


    At this moment, he was in a state of panic. He was too busy to leave.


    After all, there was also a guard arranged by Yuan Shao around him to protect the safety of Fengji. Therefore, under the escort of his own guards, Feng Jizheng quickly went to the west of the road, preparing to avoid Zhang Xiu''s army, hide in the mountains, and then find a chance to leave.


    But just as he rushed forward, Gao Lan drove his horse sideways and blocked the road. He crossed the horse with a knife and said in a deep voice: "every discipline has come. They are all old friends. Are you going to get off the horse and be bound, or do I take someone to take you?"


    When Feng Ji saw Gao Lan in front of him, his cheek pulled out. He was very desperate.


    It''s blocked.


    Especially when Feng Ji looks around, Xianbei soldiers are killed one by one and surrender one by one. There are no other Xianbei soldiers around him, only a few of his own guards.


    These pro guards are not worth mentioning in front of Gao Lan.


    Feng Ji said in a deep voice: "Gaolan, you and I used to be the same. Now, do you really want to kill them all? "


    Gao Lan said, "it seems that we are very familiar. Fengji, I say again, if you get off your horse and are bound now, I will not kill you and hand you over to the Lord. If you insist on resisting now, the sword is silent. I''m afraid you have a great chance of dying in my hands. "


    "You..."


    He clenched his fist, but he was helpless to loosen it.


    He has no choice!


    In the current situation, if you insist on resisting, you are likely to be killed. Feng Ji takes a deep breath, and finally turns over and dismounts. At the same time, he makes all his bodyguards surrender.


    With a wave of his hand, Gao Lan''s soldiers rushed up and roughly tied up Feng Ji. Then, Gao Lan led the soldiers around him and continued to kill the enemies who were still fighting.


    At this time, Chen Dao and Gan Ning joined hands to kill, and the combined forces easily killed the Xianbei soldiers who were still resisting, and then put all the prisoners in custody.


    Gan Ning also came to Gao Lan, looked at him and said with a smile, "General Gao, you can. We all thought that you would be in the army. Unexpectedly, you cut corners and blocked budugen''s retreat. He not only killed Bu Dugen, but also captured Feng Ji alive. This battle can be described as a complete victory. "


    Gao Lan said modestly: "general Gan praised me for the success of this war. In fact, it also depends on the Lord''s army to kill. If the Lord didn''t defeat the alliance led by budugen, even if I ambush it, it won''t work


    "Come on, stop and clean up the battlefield."


    Gan Ning nodded, but did not say much.


    Gan Ning, Chen Dao and Gao Lan arranged for the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and deal with the prisoners. It took them a whole day to finish all the follow-up work.


    Ganning with the people, came to Zhangye City barracks.Gan Ning looked at Zhang Xiu and reported: "Lord, more than 4650 soldiers of the fierce tiger army died in this battle. More than 6330 soldiers died in the battle of Langya camp. The loss of Langya camp and the fierce tiger army was about 11000. About 46000 people were killed in this battle, nearly 30000 were captured, and some escaped. Among the nearly 30000 prisoners are 5000 Xianbei soldiers, 6000 Di people, 6000 Qiang people, and 13000 strong private soldiers of major ethnic groups. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and her eyes fell on Gao Lan.


    Gao Lan reported: "my Lord, there are still more than 3000 soldiers under his humble command. In this war, all the soldiers under the humble command were almost wiped out. Please surrender


    With that, he plopped and knelt on the ground.


    At this moment, Gao Lan felt extremely painful. Because of his carelessness, all the troops were trapped in Zhangye. For two consecutive months, countless soldiers were killed.


    Looking at Gao Lan kneeling on the ground, Zhang Xiu said: "the battle of Liangzhou, though trapped in Zhangye, is not your crime. This time things, too suddenly, also did not notice the things of Fengji and Xianbei people. Get up


    "Thank you


    Gao Lan stands up, but he blames himself.


    Gan Ning took the initiative and said, "Lord, what should we do with the nearly 30000 prisoners now?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "all the powerful private soldiers of the big family are organized by Gao Lan. Those who can stay in the army will stay in the army. Those who cannot stay shall be given financial severance. Except for the other Qiang people, Di people and Xianbei people, Ganning you take people and kill them all. Since we are in trouble, we should be ready to be killed. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning''s fist should be thrown.


    He doesn''t like foreigners.


    Under Yang Xiuzhi''s rule, Liangzhou treated Qiang people, Di people and other foreigners equally, and did not treat anyone severely. But in the end, these Qiang and Di people began to make trouble, but Ganning thought it was better to kill them.


    It''s a shock to kill.


    Gan Ning turned to execute the order, but Gao Lan didn''t stop him. He said again: "Lord, budugen has been killed. But Fengji was captured. Now, how to deal with Fengji? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "naturally, I''m in custody. I don''t plan to surrender to Fengji. Such a person can never be better used to deal with Yuan Shao. "


    Gao Lan said: "my Lord is wise!"


    Gao Lan doesn''t think highly of Feng Ji. Although he works for Yuan Shao, he often uses his power for personal gain. He doesn''t think highly of such a person.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Gaolan, I am now in Zhangye. I will give you ten days to reorganize the army and stabilize the situation. Ten days later, I will lead the army to leave Liangzhou. Because the situation in Yizhou has not been settled yet. "


    "I''ll do it


    Gao Lan''s boxing should be done.


    Ten days is enough for him to reorganize his army and attack all sides. With more than 3000 new soldiers under his command, he can regroup.

 Chapter 798

    Liangzhou, guzang County, Weiwu county.


    In guzang County, there is a large family with the surname of Chen, the oldest of which is over 70 years old.


    It is said that people in their early 70s are already old people, and they can be called longevity. When you are over 80 years old, it''s not too much to say a word of fame.


    His name is Chen PU. He is a great scholar in Weiwu county.


    When he was young, he once studied under the master of Confucian classics, Ma Rong. Although he was only a registered disciple, he was not really a disciple, but his own knowledge was excellent.


    Although there are Xianbei, Haoqiang and Qiangdi in Weiwu County, such things have little influence on the Chen family, because the Chen family is a famous family.


    However, the Chen family is a powerful family, but they did not participate in it.


    Fengji had come to visit in person. Chen Pu only met people, but she didn''t answer Fengji''s request.


    The Chens just closed their doors.


    In the study.


    Chen Pu, who already has gray hair and sparse hair, is reading a book.


    He likes reading the spring and Autumn Annals best because it is the knowledge that his teacher Ma Rong once studied. To this day, he is still lack of his own knowledge and does not annotate the spring and Autumn Annals.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door, from outside the room.


    "Grandfather, it''s grandson."


    Voice, from outside the study, came Chen Pu''s direct grandson Chen min.


    Chen Pu said, "come in!"


    Creak!


    When the door was opened, Chen Min bowed in and bowed to Chen PU. He said with a straight face: "grandfather, just got the news from Zhangye County, Zhang Xiu has calmed down the chaos between Xianbei and Di people. Moreover, all the Xianbei people were slaughtered, and all the Di people and Qiang people who made trouble were also slaughtered. Only the private soldiers of the powerful families remained, and none of the others survived. "


    "Hiss!"


    After hearing this, Chen Pu''s face changed greatly.


    "Zhang Xiu is such a killer. As a Taiwei of the current Dynasty, he killed in such a way that it hurt Tianhe. What''s more, although Qiang people, Di people and Xianbei people are involved in the rebellion, we only need to kill the first villain. Why do we implicate the innocent so much? "


    Chen Pu shakes her head and answers.


    His wrinkled face was full of disapproval.


    Chen Min said: "grandfather, today''s Zhang Xiu is no longer a Taiwei. He is the king of Qin granted by the imperial court."


    "King Qin?"


    The look on Chen Pu''s face was even more unexpected. He said, "the Han Dynasty has been established for hundreds of years, and there is no king with a different surname. How could the imperial court easily appoint Zhang Xiu king of Qin? "


    Chen Min said: "I don''t know my grandson."


    Chen Pu stroked his beard and said, "it''s not far from guzang county to Zhangye. You arrange people. I want to see Zhang Xiu immediately. Such a big killing really hurts heaven and earth. At this time, if we don''t stop Zhang Xiu, we will let it go. Now that I know, I''ll go to advise myself. "


    Chen Min said: "grandfather, Zhang Xiu is a man. It''s a decision to kill. Grandson doesn''t suggest you go."


    Chen Pu said with a smile, "are you worried about Zhang Xiu killing me?"


    "Yes


    Chen Min nodded.


    Chen Pu laughs and says, "you worry too much. I''m old and I''m famous. If Zhang Xiu kills me, he will not destroy his reputation. He can''t kill me. "


    "On the contrary, I''m not going to go alone to persuade you. There are many Confucian scholars in guzang County, from clapping to Zhangye, and many Confucian scholars are old friends of me."


    "This time, I will take my scholars from Liangzhou to advise them. In this way, Zhang Xiu can''t kill us. So in today''s situation, you don''t have to worry. "


    After a pause, Chen Pu said, "I''ve been here not only for advice, but also for the Chen family."


    Chen Min said, "please let grandfather clear his doubts."


    Chen Pu replied: "Chen''s family is in the territory of Weiwu County, which is also a famous family. But now you are not an official. I went to advise Zhang Xiu to establish the reputation of the Chen family. At that time, you will have a little more background to become an official by virtue of the identity of my direct grandson. "


    Chen Min said: "it''s really unfilial for grandson to worry his grandfather."


    Chen Pu said, "go and prepare the carriage."


    "Here it is


    Chen Min bows to answer, then exits the room and turns to arrange.


    Not long after Chen Min left, Chen Pu''s eldest son Chen Xin got the news and quickly came to the study. He said in a deep voice, "my father wants to take someone to advise Zhang Xiu, but my son thinks it''s not right."


    Chen Pu said, "min''er has already advised me. You don''t have to say any more."


    Chen Daodao: "my father''s plan is called admonishment. I hope Zhang Xiu can reduce the killing. In fact, it is equivalent to stepping on Zhang Xiu''s body in order to establish his own great Confucian reputation. With Zhang Xiu''s shrewdness, I''m sure I''ll have an insight. Father, my son doesn''t suggest you go. If we don''t provoke Zhang Xiu, we can just stay in guzang county. Once you go, if you fail, it may be worse. "Chen Pu shook his head and said: "you don''t have to worry. I''ve experienced countless things in my life. How can I lose in such things. I advise Zhang Xiu, the starting point is no problem, that is to let Zhang Xiu reduce the killing. As long as we stick to this starting point, there will be no problem. You don''t have to worry. You can stay at home while I''m away. "


    "Alas..."


    Chen Xin looks helpless.


    It is obvious that Chen Pu is determined to use Zhang Xiu to make Chen''s reputation.


    In this case, Chen Xin thinks it''s a matter of making a fool out of the fire.


    Soon after, Chen Min entered. He bowed to Chen Xin, then turned to Chen Pu and said, "grandfather, everything is ready."


    "Then let''s go!"


    Chen Pu stood up and strode out.


    Although Chen Pu is now over 70 years old, in fact, he has a pretty good body. After he got out of the room, he tightened his clothes and went straight to the outside of the house with Chen min.


    After boarding the carriage, Chen Pu and his party went out.


    Along the way to Zhangye, Chen Pu did not go alone. He visited his old friends and called them together. Gradually, there were more and more people around. There were nearly ten carriages with them. They were very powerful and extraordinary.


    When they arrived in Zhangye County, December had passed and January had entered.


    The weather in January is still cold.


    Chen Pu and his party went straight into the city. Instead of stopping in the city, they inquired about the location of Zhang Xiu. They were glad to learn that Zhang Xiu was in the military camp and that Zhang Xiu was leaving Liangzhou tomorrow.


    Gain and loss come in time!


    If Zhang Xiu leaves, everything will be in vain.


    The carriages of Chen Pu and his party came to the outside of the military camp, dressed in brocade robes one by one, and got out of the carriage. Among them, the oldest is Chen Pu, who is in his early 70s. As for the rest, most of them are about 50 years old, all of them are erudite, elegant and have the style of famous scholars.


    These are the Confucians of Weiwu county.


    A lot of people are powerful, which are quite famous.


    Along with Chen Pu, they are all ready to give advice, and they want to make a name for themselves.


    A crowd gathered in the barracks, Chen Pu asked Chen Min to come forward to the ground to worship the post, then quietly waiting.

 Chapter 799

    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    There are two braziers inside, burning red anthracite, giving off the heat, dispelling the chill. Although it is now January, the weather is still cold, but in fact, there is no cold winter in December.


    During this time, Zhang Xiu has been in the military camp.


    He didn''t take care of the affairs of government affairs. After all, Yang Xiu was in the rear of the town, and he had arranged a steady stream of new officials to take office. In addition, Gao Lan and pound are present in military affairs, so he doesn''t need to worry about them.


    All went well.


    Especially after killing all the Qiang people and Di people who made trouble, the whole Liangzhou became stable.


    All the Qiang Di dare not make trouble again.


    However, there are also voices of criticism. Some people say that Zhang Xiu killed too much. For such words, Zhang Xiu just smiles and doesn''t care. Nothing in this world can please all people. There are always people who will blame you. In particular, standing on the righteousness of the people who criticize others, you go to him, but to encourage the other party''s arrogance.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu did not take care of it. Now the army has begun to pack up.


    Because tomorrow morning, I will leave.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue''s voice came.


    Hoo!!


    The curtain of the tent door was lifted, but Wang Yue rushed in and reported: "Lord, a large number of people have come outside the camp to see you. The leader is Chen Pu, a native of guzang county and a famous scholar in Liangzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what are these people doing here?"


    Wang Yue said, "I don''t know for the moment."


    The royal guards under his command all focused on searching the Qiang and Di people who made trouble. They didn''t care about such great Confucians. So Zhang Xiu asked, for a moment, he didn''t know.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care. She waved her hand and said, "please come in!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    In a short time, Chen Pu and the rest of the Confucians entered the camp. Everyone stood still. When they saw Zhang Xiu, they all felt that they were old enough to live on a dog.


    Zhang Xiu is too young.


    But in his early twenties, he is now the king of Qin granted by the imperial court.


    You know, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, there are countless royal families with the surname Liu who have been enfeoffed as kings. However, it is absolutely not allowed for people with different surnames to be king. However, the imperial court issued an imperial edict and granted Zhang Xiu the title of king of Qin.


    Such a young king of Qin is shocking.


    Chen Pu is happy to see that Zhang Xiu is very young. He thinks that Zhang Xiu is young, which means that Zhang Xiu has little experience. At this time, his persuasion can play a more important role.


    Chen Pu arched his hand and said, "old Chen Pu, meet your Royal Highness the king of Qin."


    "Meet your Royal Highness the king of Qin!"


    The rest bowed themselves.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you don''t have to be polite. I don''t know what happened when you came to see me."


    Chen Pu said: "this time, Lao Kui came here to kill Qiang people, Di people and Xianbei people. About this, it has been widely spread in Liangzhou. If this matter does not subside, I am afraid it will affect the reputation of the king of Qin. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Zhang Xiu knew about the comments from all over the world, but he didn''t care at all.


    Because of the Qiang Di rebellion, it''s time to kill!


    Originally, Liangzhou under Yang Xiu''s management was already on a regular basis, and everything developed in an orderly way. Although the foundation of Liangzhou is very poor, under the governance of Yangzhou, it seems to be developing towards the south of the Great Wall.


    But because of the disturbance of budugen and Qiangdi, all these were destroyed.


    It''s quite easy to destroy a thing. However, it is not easy to build one thing. You can completely destroy it in only three or five days.


    Therefore, under such a premise, Zhang Xiu has no tolerance for the Qiang people and their enemies. As long as the people who are involved in the rebellion are killed, none of them is left.


    Chen Pu continued: "Lao Jiu and the people came here to hope that the king of Qin would temporarily put out the war and stop targeting the Qiang and Di people. Not only that, the king of Qin should give orders to all places to make the Qiang and Di people live and work in peace and contentment. In addition, the affected Qiang and DI families should be given corresponding subsidies so that they can be grateful to go there. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is your point of view?"


    "Yes


    Chen Pu answered directly.


    Others, too, spoke.


    All of them have been communicating with Chen Pu on their way here. They all share the same view that the Qiang and Di people should be given benefits, so that they can live and work in peace and contentment, so that everyone can stop making trouble.


    Chen Pu continued: "it''s a good thing to celebrate that the king of Qin swept budugen and wiped out the Xianbei people. This is the contribution of the king of Qin, and the people are grateful to him. "


    "However, it is not proper to slaughter Qiang and Di people.""There are three reasons."


    "First, since ancient times, monarchs have always been benevolent and benevolent. Only in this way can the people be convinced and attached. The killing of the king of Qin is bound to affect his reputation. At that time, people all over the world will think that the king of Qin is a ferocious man. I''m afraid it will be difficult for the king of Qin to govern the place! "


    "Second, when is the time to repay each other''s grievances? Today, the king of Qin slaughters countless Qiang and Di people, and there are many kinds of hatred. There will be countless people who hate and are hostile to the king of Qin. When they grow up, they will still hate the king of Qin, and then there will be people who will make trouble. It can be said that even if the king of Qin suppressed it. But in this cycle, there are Qiang and Di people who make trouble for their children and grandchildren. When will Liangzhou be restored? "


    Chen Pu stroked his beard and continued: "third, the king of Qin is now the king of a different surname granted by the imperial court, the first king of a different surname in the world. At this time, we should keep a low profile. I''m afraid that if you act in such a high-profile way, you will be caught by others, which is not good for the king of Qin. Therefore, under such circumstances, the king of Qin could not give others a handle. Otherwise, how can the king of Qin deal with himself? "


    "What Mr. Chen said can be regarded as good advice. I agree with you."


    In the crowd, some people agreed.


    "What Mr. Chen said is that if the king of Qin wants to be based on the world, he needs not only dignity, but also virtue. He needs to be able to convince others with virtue. If the world looks at the king of Qin, it''s just a matter of awe for the blade of the king of Qin, but not the virtue of the king of Qin


    "Please think twice


    "King Qin, Liangzhou is different from the Central Plains. Liangzhou is a place where people are brave. The more you kill, the more people rebel. The imperial court slaughtered Qiang and Di people several times in Liangzhou, but what happened in the end? "


    "Every time, the chaos was suppressed. But after a short time, chaos happened again. "


    "Hatred will breed hatred, and it will not last long. If we want to resolve the killing, only by virtue can we accomplish our work and completely resolve the Liangzhou crisis. "


    "King Qin, please think twice!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the so-called great scholars keep talking.


    They have a way of pointing out the country.


    It seems that according to their methods, we can make the world permanent.


    When Zhang Xiu heard everyone''s words, a look of sarcasm rose from the corner of her mouth. When budugen was in trouble, all of them shrank and said nothing. But now, they all jump out and point out the country.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t like.


    If all these people dare to fight against budugen when budugen is in trouble, dare to stand up and speak out, dare to attack budugen, then Zhang Xiu also admires these people.


    But in front of these people, Zhang Xiu is despised.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd, and when everyone stopped talking and was quiet, Zhang Xiu said faintly: "I just want to say that you are so willing to use your kindness to influence them. How can you make trouble? When Di people and Qiang people make trouble, you don''t influence them? Let them stop making trouble. "


    WOW!!


    The crowd was in an uproar.


    Said did not expect, Zhang Xiu unexpectedly is such a speech, a mouth to accept back. For a moment, all the "great scholars" were excited, and some even rolled up their sleeves, ready to argue.

 Chapter 800

    Chen Pu immediately stood up and said, "Taiwei''s words are fallacious."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Chen Pu said, "how can the Bu Dugen, Di people and Qiang people, who were in trouble, be influenced by their strong military power? At that time, budugen was hard to influence. Today, the troubled times have come to an end, so we should use gentle means to influence them and prevent them from making trouble again. "


    "What Mr. Chen said is true."


    "What Mr. Chen said is a wise saying."


    "I agree with Mr. Chen!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, they all stood on Chen Pu''s side. After all, all of them are on the same boat with Chen PU. They agree with Chen Pu''s suggestion.


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "this probably means that you are afraid of death, so you don''t dare to stand up for your duty. When I''ve put an end to the chaos, you''ll stand up and be able to give us a swaggering guidance. "


    "After all, you are a group of people who are greedy for life and afraid of death."


    "The so-called unity of knowledge and action, if you make trouble in budugen, you dare to speak up, dare to face life and death, dare to dispatch family private soldiers to resist. I, Zhang Xiu, admire you and respect you even more."


    "But now, a group of people fishing for fame and reputation, under the guise of admonishment, stand at the commanding height of morality, and tell the king what to do, they still look good for the king."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "where did you get the courage?"


    Hearing the words, people''s faces changed greatly.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu''s words. She''s fierce in voice and color, and she''s murderous.


    Zhang Xiu, in particular, was killed on the battlefield, not only with the bearing of the superior, but also with a strong murderous spirit. As soon as he spoke, everyone frowned.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you people only know how to point fingers and draw feet, but you forget the scene when Qiang people and Di people were in trouble. Have you seen the people who were killed? "


    "No, you didn''t go!"


    "Have you ever paid attention to how many people have been displaced because of this disturbance?"


    "No, you don''t understand."


    "You are the Confucians and the people above. On weekdays, you just need to talk about morality and morality, and you just need to talk about the exceedingly, then you can enjoy your life. "


    "But what about the people at the bottom?"


    Zhang Xiu looked cold and said, "people like you only know how to yell at each other and how to judge. Let you resist the Di people, the Huns and the Xianbei people, you dare not; let you go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, your legs tremble; let you govern the affairs of the state, your brain is a mess. A group of people who don''t have any practical ability claim to be invincible in the world and number one in the universe. Who are you


    "Go back to the king and pee, and do as you like."


    "Cats and dogs, dare to come to Wang. Do you really think Wang''s sword is not good for you and dare not kill people? I killed tens of thousands of Qiang people and enemies, and countless Xianbei people. I don''t care about you. "


    Zhang Xiu snorted: "everyone''s eyes are high and their hands are low. They still say that they should give the Qiang people and the enemy benefits. Now that you have given them benefits, they will know that they can still get food and money after the rebellion. Then, the chaos continued. Qiang people and Di people are not afraid of virtue but of prestige. What they are afraid of is swords and axes. A group of idiots, go back to where they come from. "


    After hearing this, Chen Pu was so angry that her chest kept rising and falling, her face was full of anger, and said: "Zhang Xiu, you deceive people too much."


    Zhang xiudao said: "is this king deceiving people too much, or are you deceiving people too much?"


    "I''m in charge of the local government, but you people jump out and say what you want. You are a group of people who do not work hard and do not share the grain, but they have to stick in their waist and show their hands and feet. "


    "What you dare not do, others will do it, and if it''s well solved, you''ll have to talk about it. People like you, who stand with you, will be struck by thunder. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words are extremely sharp.


    He is not a good tempered man. He dares to drink and scold directly.


    "You, you..."


    Chen Pu is even more atmospheric.


    In Liangzhou, Chen Pu is a famous person.


    Zhang Xiu said in a voice: "since the rise of our king, we have contacted many famous people, such as Yang Biao, Sima Lang, Pang Degong, Sima Hui, and even Guan Ning and Bing yuan."


    "Any dignified and virtuous person knows a truth well, that is, if you get something on paper, you will feel shallow, and you will never know that you have to practice it. You don''t do anything, you don''t work hard, you don''t pay any attention, you just take it for granted


    "You are a great scholar."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m afraid you are a self styled great scholar. Chen Pu in Liangzhou, no more


    "You..."


    At this moment, Chen Pu''s face turned red. He couldn''t help it any more. He felt that his throat was sweet. He opened his mouth and sprayed out blood.


    Kick! Kick!Chen Pu retreated two steps in succession to stabilize her figure, but when she looked at Zhang Xiu, she had a look of resentment in her eyes.


    Zhang Xiu''s words completely destroyed his reputation.


    After he came out of Zhang Xiu''s camp, today''s affairs will be thoroughly spread in Liangzhou. Not only is Chen Pu completely destroyed, but also the Chen family will be affected.


    Since ancient times, scholars of Qingliu have been brave enough to speak out and accept remonstrance, because even if they are killed, they have left a good name.


    But today is not the same, Zhang Xiu''s eloquent words completely attacked him to nothing.


    It''s a complete blow to him.


    Under such circumstances, Chen Pu can not refute.


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said coldly, "Yang Xiu is governing Liangzhou. I don''t see you becoming an official or helping me. But now, when the king comes, you come to point out, intending to become famous with the help of the king. A group of opportunists, who are not practical, are really contemptible! "


    Brush!


    The celebrities changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are too much.


    At this time, an old man stood up and said, "Jiang Tu, guzang County, met the king of Qin. Just now the king of Qin said, "I''m afraid we''ve gone too far in speculating."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "have you ever spoken? I''m afraid it''s too much. Your name is Jiang Tu, right


    "Yes


    Jiang Tu nods and answers.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you have lived for decades. Have you ever been an official and governed the local government?"


    "No!"


    Jiang Tu shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "have you ever been in the army, like Huangfu song, leading the army to fight and sweeping the bandits?"


    "No!"


    Jiang Tu replied again.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the rest of the camp and said, "what about you?"


    The crowd was dumb.


    Although these celebrities are so-called celebrities, in fact, they are just like this. Each of them has never served as an envoy or been in the army, and they are speechless when asked by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you don''t know how to govern a place or how to March and fight, what do you know? Even the basic counties and counties have never been managed, and they still look like they are superior. They need to guide the country. You are not opportunistic or opportunistic in guiding the country. What is that? "


    Jiang Tu also stepped back, which was hard to refute.


    It''s really a big mouth.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, they can''t refute it, especially their truth is that they have never been an official.


    This becomes a weakness.


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said: "although you are not diligent, you will not be punished for today''s affairs. I don''t want to see you. It really affects my mood. "


    "Step back!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    Jiang Tu angrily turned and left.


    The rest of them all left with helpless expression.


    Chen Min has never talked from beginning to end. He helped Chen Pu and left quietly.


    In the hall, it soon quieted down.

 Chapter 801

    Wang Yue has been in the hall, watching Zhang Xiu against a group of self righteous Confucians, listening to the surge of emotion. Even though he is not young, he is still very excited.


    Wang Yue said in a deep voice: "Lord, you have dealt such a blow to Chen Pu and others. I''m afraid that when they go back, they will attack you, saying that the Lord is arbitrary, that he is headstrong, and even that he is unscrupulous. "


    "This is expected," Zhang said


    Wang Yue said, "what shall we do?"


    For the current situation, since there is a pre judgment, naturally we can not let it go, we must be prepared.


    This is Wang Yue''s view.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "this matter is actually very easy."


    Wang Yue said: "please make it public!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you should arrange it immediately to publicize Chen Pu''s plan. The so-called need to appease the slaughtered Qiang people and Di people, and to distribute food and money to all the Di people and Qiang people who have made trouble, is spread out. "


    "Chen Pu and other so-called celebrities, their celebrities, in fact, are blown out of each other."


    "Once the people know what Chen Pu is doing and know which people Chen Pu is going to give money and food to, they will surely be angry. When the people are angry, Chen Pu and others have no place to stand. "


    "Their reputation is completely ruined."


    "For a celebrity, fame is everything."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if you destroy their reputation, you destroy everything. What''s more, we have never slandered it. We are all stating facts. All this is Chen Pu''s plan. "


    Wang Yue said, "I understand your humble position."


    After a pause, the humble official said: "in addition, the humble official will arrange people to inquire about Chen Pu and find out what the Chen family is like. During the war, they did not help the people, they did not provide relief. These things can be publicized. "


    "Not bad!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    For a group of people like Chen Pu, Zhang Xiu doesn''t like it very much.


    Such a person only knows how to chirp, which is disgusting.


    Wang Yue didn''t stay any longer, so he immediately turned around and left to make arrangements quickly. After this time the army entered Liangzhou, and the last time Zhang Xiu once entered Liangzhou, the whole Liangzhou territory, the royal guards have gone deep into all parts.


    Before that, we couldn''t get in touch with each other. It was the blockade all over the country.


    Now it''s different.


    The royal guards are all over the country. It''s even easier to inquire about the news.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of Chen Pu''s affairs, because now what Zhang Xiu wants to do is to prepare for evacuation. Under the current circumstances, he must leave Liangzhou as soon as possible, strive to return to Guanzhong as soon as possible, and then go south to Yizhou.


    While Wang Yue was busy making arrangements, Chen Pu and his party went back to the inn.


    In the room, Chen Pu looks a little pale.


    Previously, in Zhang Xiu''s camp, Chen Pu vomited blood in her mouth and was depressed in her heart, which was affected by some factors.


    After all, Chen Pu is old.


    Jiang Tu bit his teeth and said, "Mr. Chen, Zhang Xiu is too overbearing and unreasonable. Zhang Xiu is so reckless that we can''t let it go. "


    Chen Pu''s hands trembled, stroked his beard under his jaw, and said, "I''m not willing to give up this matter. If we don''t do anything now, then our reputation will be completely destroyed."


    "I''m afraid it''s over for me and all of you here."


    "Therefore, we have to mobilize our own contacts and network to criticize Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is so headstrong and ferocious that she can''t have the demeanor of a benevolent monarch. She is a tyrant. "


    "Such a tyrant can never last long. We are bound to resist to the end, and we must not let it go. Otherwise, in the end, we will suffer losses, and the whole Liangzhou will suffer losses. "


    Chen Pu is very angry.


    He is a great Confucian, but in the hands of Zhang Xiu suffer losses, the hearts of incomparable unwilling.


    "What Mr. Chen said is true."


    "Mr. Chen, whatever you say, we all listen to Mr. Chen''s arrangement."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, celebrities keep talking.


    They are in Zhang Xiu''s camp, and they will be in a disadvantageous position once the news comes out.


    It''s something no one wants to see.


    They are now well-known in Liangzhou. Wherever you go, you will be served by good meat for a long time. But once you lose your reputation, it''s over.


    It''s something no one wants to see.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    Suddenly, a knock on the door came from outside the room.


    Chen Pu said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open with a creak, and a servant came in in a hurry and said in a loud voice: "Mr. Chen, it''s not good. Hurry up, you guys. Now, in Zhangye City, it suddenly comes out that Chen Gong and his party are admonishing the king of Qin to give food to the Qiang people and the enemy and treat them well. Now, it has aroused public indignation, and many people have come to the inn. "Brush!


    Chen Pu''s face changed greatly.


    His body is more crumbling, a look of panic.


    "Zhang Xiu, how vicious!"


    Chen Pu talks in his mouth, and his Qi and blood are surging up again, and his heart and blood are spitting out again. They are still discussing how to deal with Zhang Xiu, how to make Zhang Xiu''s reputation worse, and even how to let Zhang Xiu see the power of their group of famous scholars. But now, Zhang Xiu is the first step.


    Obviously, the people hate Chen Pu and others.


    The expression on Jiang Tu''s face changed again and again. No one thought that it would eventually evolve to such a state. He clenched his fist, gritted his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu''s doing this is to draw money from the bottom of the pot. He''s so cruel. Since then, I''m afraid we''ve become street mice in Liangzhou, and everyone yells at us. "


    "It''s over!"


    "We''re done!"


    "What to do? It''s over now."


    ¡­¡­


    The expression on each face was panic. No one thought that Zhang Xiu was so decisive. Before they did, countless people came with anger.


    Chen Pu, Jiang Tu and others were pale. When they sighed, they did not dare to delay and left quickly by the back door of the inn. But not long after they came out, they were recognized by the people.


    With the roar of the common people, countless people came after them to beat them.


    Chen Pu and his party fled Zhangye in a hurry.


    But after they left Zhangye, life was not easy, because everywhere along the way, the people hated them and were hostile to them.


    For ordinary people, they hate the Qiang and Di people who make trouble. Because the Qiang people, Di people and the powerful people who made trouble everywhere, they robbed women, food and so on, causing countless people to die among them.


    Countless people have lost their families.


    However, Chen Pu and others wanted to appease the troublemakers and give food to the Qiang and Di people. This was just an act of brutality. Therefore, the people are against Chen Pu and others, and they all drink and scold Chen Pu and others.


    After leaving Zhangye, Chen Pu and his party were extremely miserable. They were dug pitfalls, smashed with rotten eggs and splashed with cold water.


    After returning to guzang County, Chen Pu and other people are surprised to find that their families are also notorious. They are not as prosperous as they were before. They are already empty.


    Even some scandals of their families, some violations of the law and discipline, have been thoroughly exposed.


    They were completely flustered.


    One by one, families that have been punished have been punished, and families that have been arrested have suffered heavy losses.


    When Chen Pu came back to Chen''s house, she saw that all the servants of Chen''s house had left. Chen''s house was also lonely and fell ill immediately. At this time, Chen Pu deeply regretted.


    He regretted it!


    Regret not to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    But all this is irreparable, completely over.

 Chapter 802

    After Zhang Xiu arranged for the affairs of guzang County, she didn''t take care of them. Shortly after he left Zhangye and entered Jincheng County, he got the news from Wang Yue that the Chen family in guzang county had completely collapsed, and there was no more sunlight.


    In this regard, Zhang Xiu is happy to see its success.


    Zhang Xiu is not willing to bully others, but it doesn''t mean that she will let others bully her. If Chen Pu didn''t come under the guise of so-called benevolence and righteousness, she would not have come to this end.


    What happened to Chen Pu was just an episode. Zhang Xiu kept on going all the way. After entering Yunwu County of Jincheng county and arriving at Yuzhong County on the border, she got the battle report about Yizhou.


    In Yizhou, after Liu Ruo and Ling Bao were killed, Zhang Song and FA Zheng in Chengdu strongly advised Liu Zhang to reuse Zhang Ren. Finally, Zhang Ren sent his army to Jianmen pass again, with Zhang Ren as the general.


    Zhang Ren is at Jianmen pass, which makes Zhang Yan unable to go south.


    The army is blocked at Jianmen pass.


    Although Pang Tong and Zhang Yan led the army, they had nothing to do with Zhang. Not only Zhang Ren is good at defense, but also because Zhang Ren can''t stick to it all the time. No matter how Zhang jaw sends troops to fight, it can''t affect Zhang Ren.


    Zhang Xiu was neither surprised nor disappointed by the war.


    For Zhang Xiu, the current situation is enough to ensure that she does not lose her territory.


    The rest are not extravagant.


    The army continued to go south and finally entered Longxi County.


    This road is very smooth.


    When entering Didao County, Longxi County, suddenly there was news that the whole Longxi County had caused chicken plague. Innumerable chickens died of illness. After eating them, many people sent soldiers directly.


    Even if there is a doctor, it is difficult to treat.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she didn''t care much. Such a thing seems to be in her eyes, but it''s not a plague. Even if it has an impact, it''s not too big. After all, it''s just chicken plague. When Zhang Xiu leads her troops to enter the territory of Didao County, suddenly, in front of the army, there is a woman standing in the way, directly asking to see Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu got the news from Wang Yue and directly ordered to bring the people over.


    This woman is nearly twenty years old.


    Simple and generous dress, beautiful appearance, quite knowledgeable. But her eyes were firm. When the woman saw Zhang Xiu, she made a plop and knelt down on the ground, saying: "please the king of Qin, make the decision for the little woman!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    After the woman stood up, she slightly lowered her head and said, "what the little woman asked for is to ask the king of Qin to help my husband."


    Zhang Xiu said, "who is your husband and what difficulties you encounter."


    The woman said, "my husband, Jiang Peng, is the new magistrate of Didao county. Now the chicken plague is rampant in Didao county and even in the whole of Longxi. The governor of Longxi ordered his husband to slaughter all the people''s chickens and ducks in Didao county to avoid another plague. "


    "My husband thinks that once all chickens and ducks are directly killed and burned, it is easy to hurt the people."


    "Not only that, the little woman also heard her husband say that when it comes to chicken plague, the Governor Yang knew about it and ordered to allocate materials to appease the people."


    "But the governor didn''t say anything. He just asked me to kill all the chickens, ducks and poultry."


    The woman choked and said, "my husband went to the prefect''s office to seek the theory of the prefect. In the end, my husband was imprisoned in a cell for disobedience and was even deprived of the county magistrate''s office. I asked the king of Qin to make the decision for him."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu frowned.


    There is no problem with Yang Xiu''s disposal.


    If all the countless poultry involved in the people are killed and burned, it will certainly hurt the people. Appropriate compensation can also make the people feel at ease. As long as we get through this difficulty, it will be good.


    Jiang''s disposal is also good.


    As for the governor of Longxi County, there are some problems.


    However, it is clear that the situation is just rough. Because once the pressure is put on the people, even more serious consequences may occur.


    Suddenly, an aura flashed through Zhang Xiu''s mind.


    Ginger!


    This person has some impression on him.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "is your husband Jiang Peng a native of Didao county? Is he the county magistrate only this year? "


    Jiang''s wife, Jiang''s family, said hurriedly: "to the king of Qin, my husband is not a native of Didao County, but a native of Ji county. He served as county magistrate for less than a month. It was Yang Cishi who re selected officials before he was able to take office. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed in her heart.


    Jiang Zhen, who was born in Jixian County, should be Jiang Wei''s father.


    But now, Jiang Wei is not born.


    I met a celebrity.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "get up. As soon as I arrive in Didao County, I will deal with Jiang''s affairs and return justice to your husband."


    "Thank you, King Qin! King Xie Qin "


    Jiang''s heart was excited and he kept kowtowing.Zhang Xiu said, "go back to Didao county and wait. As soon as I arrive, I will deal with the matter directly."


    "Yes


    After Jiang''s response, he felt happy.


    She got up and left, but Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and asked Wang Yue to arrange someone to inquire about the situation of the new governor of Longxi County and the chicken plague in Longxi County.


    Chicken plague is not terrible!


    After all, it''s not a plague. It''s quite difficult to infect people.


    When Zhang Xiu was less than 20 miles away from Didao County, the news that the royal guards had inquired about had already been sent back. Today, the governor of Longxi County, named Wei Chang, is a native of Jincheng county. He previously worked in Jixian County.


    After huangfumin was killed, Yang Xiu was transferred back to the prefecture.


    Wei Chang was conscientious when he was in Jixian County, but when he arrived in Longxi County, he adjusted the officials on a large scale, even accepted bribes, which changed his conscientious style in Jixian County.


    It''s like a different person.


    For this, Zhang Xiu frowned, Wei Chang such a big change, shocking.


    Not only that, when Wei Chang arrived in Didao County, he took eight concubines in succession, all of them were nearly 20-year-old women, and Wei Chang himself was nearly 40 years old.


    A series of news back, make Zhang Xiu accident.


    Wei Chang is so deep.


    With one move, he changed himself completely.


    Zhang Xiu continued on her way. Along the way, many businessmen from Didao county came to Zhang Xiu to plead their grievances. All of them complained about Wei Chang. They said that Wei Chang was extorting money by means of chicken plague. If they didn''t give money, they would have to bear the crime of harboring chickens, ducks and poultry, refusing to cooperate with the government''s orders, and even carrying the crime of intent to make trouble.


    Zhang Xiu opened her eyes.


    Wei Chang, for the sake of money and by all means, completely set himself free.


    For the sake of money, completely fooling around.


    He not only accepted bribes, but also blackmailed businessmen. Such an act is just like being a party leader. In fact, according to what Zhang Xiu inquired about, everything about Wei Chang in Ji county and everything about Wei Chang in Didao county is quite different.


    You can''t even connect two people.


    It''s amazing.


    Anyway, it''s something to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu appeases the businessmen who come to appeal, and temporarily asks them to leave their contact information. Then she returns to Didao county and waits for Zhang Xiu to summon her for confrontation in court.


    After pacifying these people, Zhang Xiu continued to lead the troops to Didao county.

 Chapter 803

    Prefect of Di county.


    In the study.


    A middle-aged man with a big figure and a slightly elegant appearance is cleaning up the title deed.


    This man is Wei Chang, the prefect of Longxi.


    He has a pair of inverted eight character eyebrows, which is quite sharp and gives people the feeling of pressing. But now in his eyes, there is an endless look of greed. During his short time in Longxi County, he ransacked a lot of money. In front of him, he ransacked and extorted a pile of land deeds.


    With land, there is money.


    With land, the family has inheritance.


    This is Wei Chang''s view.


    After counting the deeds, Wei Chang counted them again. After confirmation, he showed a happy look on his face and carefully put all the deeds in a brocade box.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the room.


    Wei Chang raised his head and said, "come in!"


    The door creaked, and a tall, thin, middle-aged man came in. He bowed and said, "I''ve seen Fu Jun!"


    Fu Jun is the honorific name for the prefect.


    Zhao Jin, a middle-aged man, was born in a poor family. He had studied for more than 30 years, but he has not made any achievements. Yang Xiu, as the governor of Liangzhou, started his career in Liangzhou, but Zhao Jin did not pass the examination, so he could only serve as an aide.


    Wei Chang said with a smile, "what can I do for you, sir?"


    "Two things!"


    Zhao Jin replied: "the first thing is that in half a day at most, the army led by the king of Qin will arrive at the county seat. The second thing is that in prison, Jiang Fu scolds his husband, saying that he is a corrupt official regardless of the lives of the people."


    "Damn it


    Wei Chang clenched his fist and beat the table in front of him with one punch. He said in a deep voice, "what''s the matter? It''s just a Jiang Peng. How come it hasn''t been disposed of up to now."


    Zhao Jin zhengse way: "no way, now Jun Cheng Dou Ke, always opposed.". So much so that Jiang can''t be executed. You also know Dou Ke. He used to be a assistant official beside Yang Cishi. It''s not easy to deal with him. During this period of time, Dou Ke and you have never dealt with each other. Although my husband has dealt with many assistant officials in the prefecture, he has no choice but to take Dou Ke. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Wei Chang clenched his teeth and said, "this Dou Ke is really a rotten stone. At the beginning, I intentionally or unintentionally sold him well, hoping to live a good life with him in Longxi, but he and I are enemies everywhere. It seems that we have to take it down with our hands. "


    Zhao Jin said: "but he is a man of Yang Cishi."


    Wei Chang said: "even if he is Yang Cishi''s man, what''s the difference? As long as we have solid evidence, when the time comes, we can''t say anything if we take him down. "


    After a pause, Wei Chang said: "this matter, for the time being. We and Dou Ke''s matter, as well as deal with Jiang''s matter, temporarily shelved. Next, welcome the king of Qin first. The king of Qin is the real important person. As long as the king of Qin praises me, I''ll make a smooth progress in time. That''s easy. "


    Zhao Jin said, "you are wise!"


    After Wei Chang thought it over carefully, he immediately asked Zhao Jin to arrange for his family to prepare delicious food, and then asked Zhao Jin to choose a singer and prepare for singing and dancing so as to meet Zhang Xiu.


    After his arrangement came down, Zhao Jin said: "Fu Jun, such an arrangement is not appropriate."


    Wei Chang said, "why not?"


    Zhao Jin replied, "because under the current circumstances, the king of Qin is more thrifty. If Fu Jun wantonly extravagant, wantonly to show luxury, I am afraid it is not easy to get the favor of the king of Qin. On the contrary, if you show your frugality, it will be different and easy to get the approval of the king of Qin. "


    "Wonderful


    Wei Chang''s eyes lit up and said, "Sir, you are really my brain trust. If you don''t have him, you will miss another important thing. In this case, it should be so. "


    Zhao Jin said: "the Lord praised."


    Wei Chang waved his hand and said, "let''s arrange it."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Jin turns around and goes down to arrange.


    About a quarter of an hour later, Wei Chang took the officials of the prefecture to leave the prefecture and wait at the north gate of the county.


    At this time, Dou Ke is also on the side.


    Looking at Wei Chang''s clothes, he sneered and said, "I''ve known Wei Fu Jun for some time. When did Wei Fu Jun''s robes become so simple? They were made of coarse linen. I know Mr. Wei, but he is in royal clothes. He doesn''t have any coarse linen. What''s the matter? Is it a different person? "


    In his early 40s, Dou Ke was quite angry, especially Wei Chang. Anyway, he has Yang Xiu''s support behind him. He is not afraid of Wei Chang, so he speaks sarcastically.


    Wei Chang snorted: "dou Juncheng, this is my official. If you are not convinced, you can not look at it. "


    Dou Ke snorted and his eyes turned away.


    During this period of time, he has begun to collect Wei Chang''s criminal evidence. However, Wei Chang''s suppression of dissidents is also based on reasons. Although Dou Ke knows that Wei Chang has violated the law and discipline, there is no real evidence.So it hasn''t been played to Yang Xiu yet.


    "Here comes the king of Qin."


    All of a sudden, someone in the crowd yelled, and when everyone looked out of the city, they saw the dark army on the official road in the distance outside the city. The soldiers in the army were fierce and powerful.


    In front of the army, it was Zhang Xiu who drove the horse slowly.


    The rest followed Zhang Xiu.


    Wei Chang called and led the crowd forward quickly. With a bright smile on his face, he came to Zhang Xiu''s body, folded his hands and arched his hands, and said, "I''m going to see the king of Qin, officer Wei Chang."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes wandered around Wei Chang''s body. Seeing Wei Chang''s simple clothes, she sneered in her heart.


    It''s a good way to be an official.


    So simple.


    If there is no Jiang''s half way complaint, no businessman along the way complaint, Zhang Xiu do not know Wei Chang''s case, a see Wei Chang''s simple appearance, perhaps to Wei Chang also incomparable praise.


    Zhang Xiu hated such a person.


    However, Zhang Xiu didn''t say much and said, "enter the city!"


    "King Qin, please!"


    Wei Chang was happy and waved his hand.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward, but Chen Dao and Gan Ning led troops outside the city. Only Wang Yue, Jia Xu and Sima Yi accompanied them. More than a thousand bodyguards followed Zhang Xiu into the city to protect her safety.


    They entered the city and went straight to the prefect''s residence.


    Arrived at the prefecture, in the hall.


    Take your seat.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the throne, Jia Xu and Sima Yi sit below, and Wang Yue stands behind her with a sword to protect her.


    Wei Chang, Dou Ke and others are also seated.


    With a smile on his face, Wei Chang slightly rolled up his sleeve to reveal his uncertain inner shirt. Then he said with a straight face: "King Qin, I''m a little humble. I''m a little weak in wine. I''ll take care of the king of Qin. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "take the wind and wash the dust, then it won''t be necessary."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "next, let''s talk about the matter of Jiang Zhen, the magistrate of Didao county."


    Brush!


    Wei Chang''s face changed slightly.


    What''s the matter? How can Zhang Xiu know about Jiang? She has to deal with Jiang''s affairs. For a moment, Wei Chang''s heart, immediately raised in mid air, heart a panic up.

 Chapter 804

    Wei Chang''s face changed a lot at first, but he soon regained his composure and said, "tell the king of Qin, I don''t know what''s wrong with Jiang Fu. This man resisted the order given by Yang Cishi. Now, the lower official has put Jiang into prison. "


    Zhang Xiu said slowly: "how can I hear that Jiang Zhen didn''t resist the order, because the assassin''s office allocated money for disaster relief to subsidize the people who had been slaughtered. However, people in Didao county and even Longxi County did not have it. Jiang Zhen was sent to prison for the relief money. "


    Wei Chang said: "there is no such thing!"


    Zhang xiudao: "so, the relief funds have been distributed?"


    Wei Chang said: "not yet!"


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly, her eyes narrowed, and said in a deep voice: "now that the relief money has been allocated, and the poultry of people all over the world have begun to be slaughtered. Why didn''t the relief fund go down? "


    Wei Chang''s heart trembled.


    How can he explain it?


    He alone accounted for nearly 80% of the disaster relief funds involved, and in addition, 20% were distributed to the people who worked for him. Because of Wei Chang''s arrangement, he gathered all the people around him.


    Wei Chang turned his eyes and said, "King Qin, it''s not that he doesn''t give money for his humble position, it''s because we can''t count the number of people now. In particular, once more people are involved, what if one part of the money is sent and the other part is not enough? After all, there is a limit to the amount of money allocated. Therefore, the lower official''s consideration is not to allocate funds for the time being. After all the poultry have been slaughtered, the statistics will be unified. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "since unified statistics are needed, some of the poultry slaughtered at present must have been counted. Where is the account book


    Brush!


    Wei Chang''s face changed again.


    If he tells a lie, he must make up for it with countless lies.


    But at this time, the line was broken.


    Now, he has no account book at all. How can he get an account book? Because just now Zhang Xiu said the key. He said that the unified compensation after the event, if there is no statistical account book in advance, no one can remember how many poultry were slaughtered, just by asking, it is absolutely unreliable, this is the loophole!


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said in a deep voice, "Wei Chang, do you have anything to add?"


    Wei Chang was silent for a while.


    Under the current circumstances, Wei Chang did not know how to explain.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "come on!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, a soldier entered and bowed to salute.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go and bring up Jiang Bi!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldier got the order, he immediately went to carry it out.


    At this moment, Wei Chang was extremely frightened. He suddenly had a brain movement and said, "King Qin, I''ll ask the king of Qin to give up his crime if I''m careless in dealing with things."


    "But I have no selfishness."


    "In the current situation, not only Didao County, but also other counties are in trouble. Because of the chicken plague, part of the people are affected."


    "Under this premise, he was eager to save people, and he was also concerned about the situation, so he directly put Jiang into prison, and because he was in a hurry, he did not count the number of dead poultry."


    Wei Chang said: "but I dare not overstep. I still have all the relief money in my family."


    Anyway, his family has plenty of money.


    He knows how much the relief money is. He can directly take it out according to the amount and fill in the relief money.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "don''t worry, Jiang''s business is just one of them."


    Boom!!


    In Wei Chang''s mind, it exploded.


    At this moment, Wei Chang was confused.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu came to Didao county to deal with him. Even, Zhang Xiu already has a lot of evidence, so if he wants to argue, he has no chance at all.


    At this moment, Wei Chang was extremely alarmed.


    However, he is still strong, because he is looking forward to, even if Zhang Xiu investigates some things, it is impossible to find out all his things, this is his final expectation.


    Dou Ke sat down, but his heart is happy, he did not expect, he has not played to Yang Xiu, Zhang Xiu has a step to deal with.


    He just doesn''t like Wei Chang.


    It''s just that the villain is in power.


    Not long after, Jiang was brought to the hall. Today''s Jiang is haggard and embarrassed. In prison, he was also treated harshly. If it had not been for Dou Ke''s arrangement of protection, Jiang Jian would not have lived until now. In prison, he would have been killed.


    On the way out, Jiang Bian already knew Zhang Xiu''s interrogation. He knelt down on the ground, his voice was a little hoarse, and kowtowed and said, "I''ll see the king of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    Jiang Zhen stood up and stood with a bow.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "on the way back to Didao County, your wife, Jiang''s, is not afraid of difficulties and dangers. She goes to our king to plead for you. If you are in prison in Didao County, please tell the truth. I''m here today. If you have any grievances, you can just say it. As long as you are reasonable, I will make the decision for you. ""Here it is


    Jiang Zhen said: "tell the king of Qin about the chicken plague in Longxi County, and the governor''s office allocated money for disaster relief. However, all this money went into the pockets of the officials headed by Wei Chang, although Wei Chang arranged to order the counties to kill poultry. But from the beginning to the end, no compensation has been given to the people. "


    After a pause, Jiang continued: "it''s because of this that I was sent to prison by Wei Chang. For a long time, Wei Chang enticed and told him to shut up, but he didn''t agree. So he was abused and beaten so much that he became like this. "


    Zhang xiudao: "do you know who are there?"


    Jiang replied: "Wei Chang, the Duwei of the former Longxi County, and many assistant officials of the prefect''s mansion all participated in the work. The whole prefect''s house, except for Duke, the prefect of the county, was all involved. If it had not been for the protection of Dou Juncheng, the lower officials would have been killed. "


    Wei Chang roared: "King Qin, this is slander, this is slander!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "if it''s slander, you''ll know as soon as you check."


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    At the first order, another soldier entered.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "immediately arrest all the assistant officials of the prefect''s house, Wang Yue. You are personally responsible for the trial, one by one. Today, I have plenty of time and patience. It''s time to kill such a big prefect''s house. They are all corrupt and pervert the law


    Wei Chang''s face turned pale.


    It''s over!


    He''s done!


    Zhang Xiu wants to take everyone directly. He has no room for resistance.


    Especially in the current situation, there are no soldiers in Weichang, and there are Zhang Xiu''s troops outside the prefecture. Even Wei Chang had private soldiers, and even Wei Chang had a strong military force. However, in front of Zhang Xiu, such a force was just like paper paste, without any deterrent force.


    Plop!!


    Wei Chang fell directly to the ground.


    He didn''t need Zhang Xiu to be brought up for trial at all, because he couldn''t get rid of himself after the rest of the people confessed. He fell down on the ground and said in a loud voice, "King Qin, I''m wrong. I''m guilty. I''ll ask the king Qin to kill me."

 Chapter 805

    "Spare you?"


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face was cold and fierce.


    In front of him, Wei Chang deceived the superior and deceived the inferior, and acted recklessly, which made Longxi County a mess. If Wei Chang''s life is spared under such circumstances, I''m afraid there will be chaos in this world.


    This is not allowed by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Wei Chang without saying much.


    At this moment, Wei Chang''s heart sank down. He knew something wrong and said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, I''m wrong. Although villain made mistakes in Didao County, he helped Yang Cishi deal with government affairs during his stay in Jixian County. There is no credit, there is also hard work! Your highness, for the sake of the villain''s meritorious service, please forgive him once. "


    Zhang Xiu still did not speak.


    Wei Chang was angry in his heart and tried his best to roar: "King Qin, if we can''t help Wei Chang any more, it''s also a meritorious service. If you kill a meritorious minister, you will not surrender. If you kill me, the whole Liangzhou and even Guanzhong will be in turmoil. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you look up to yourself too much."


    Wei Chang is still unwilling, and begins to abuse himself, but Zhang Xiu doesn''t speak.


    Time goes by little.


    At this time, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and said something in a low voice.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "bring people in!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue went to arrange it immediately.


    After a while, a crowd rushed into the hall. These people were not others. They were some businessmen and common people who had met Zhang Xiu before. They all accused Wei Chang. In addition, Jiang''s wife, Jiang''s family, was also among them. He saw Jiang with tears in his eyes, but looked forward to it on his face.


    The rest of the people and businessmen were all excited.


    Everyone saw Wei Chang kneeling on the ground.


    Wei Chang is finished!


    Zhang Xiu looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Wei Chang, do you see that? This is the sin you have made. Everyone here is caused by your administration. Or you beat, or you blackmail, or you bully, these people are your evidence, what else do you have to say? "


    Wei Chang''s face is as grey as death!


    He looked at Zhang Xiu and opened his mouth, but when he got to his mouth, he swallowed it back.


    He''s completely down!


    Zhang Xiu has long suggested the file, he ordered people to take out the previously recorded file, one by one to the people to check. As soon as this affair was finished, Wang Yue came back.


    He has put all the assistant officials on trial, and all the crimes of Wei Chang have been recorded clearly. Zhang Xiu took it over, looked at it carefully, then threw it in front of Wei Chang and said, "come on, have a good look!"


    Wei Chang''s hand trembled and took over the document. After he looked at it quickly, he did not give any more hope.


    All of a sudden, Wei Chang said, "the king of Qin, it''s worse than his wife and children. I''m the one who does everything. It''s all my fault. If the king of Qin wants to kill or cut, Wei Chang will bear it. Please, the king of Qin, spare the lives of my wife and children. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "if your wife and children do not violate the law and discipline, there is no problem. They will pay for settling down. If your wife and children are guilty, they will be punished. Wang Yue, you personally lead people to check the Wei family. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand and answered.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said again, "Wei Chang is in violation of the law and discipline! After the Wei family is seized, the new governor of Longxi County will clear up and compensate them one by one. It is up to you to decide what you are wronged. "


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    Thank you all.


    Zhang Xiu said, "drag Wei Chang down and make the law right."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to leave with Wei Chang.


    Not long after, there was a scream outside the hall. Wei Chang was killed immediately, and his body was temporarily exposed outside the prefect''s residence.


    Zhang Xiu dismissed all the people.


    Because Wei Chang was killed, the hatred of the people was solved, and the next thing was compensation. Zhang Xiu can''t deal with these things one by one, so she has to wait for the new governor of Longxi to deal with them.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a deep voice, "Dou Ke!"


    "Yes


    At this time, Dou Ke stood up and bowed.


    His heart at the moment, suddenly there is a trace of excitement. Because now Weichang was killed, Longxi County lacks a prefect, Zhang Xiu called him out, is likely to reuse.


    As a matter of fact, as Yang Xiu once said, Dou Ke acted as the prefect, that is, he worked hard and then became the prefect.


    Now, it''s ahead of time.


    This is his chance.


    Dou Ke is honest and upright. He has a bottom line. It''s very good.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is willing to give reuse.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "as the saying goes, a snake can''t do without a head. Now Weichang of Longxi County has been punished for violating the law and discipline, and the prefect of Longxi County is vacant. As a county magistrate, you are familiar with the administrative affairs of Longxi County, so you will temporarily replace the governor of Longxi County. If you do well, you will be appointed as the prefect of Longxi. "Dou Ke bowed and said: "humble Dou Ke, you should go all out and live up to your Highness''s high expectations."


    At this moment, Dou Ke is excited.


    He became a prefect.


    Once Dou Ke was born in a poor family. He served as a assistant official beside Yang Xiu, and then became a county magistrate. According to the original plan, at least he would have to serve as the prefect for a few years before he could be promoted to be a prefect.


    Now is the opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, her eyes fell on Jiang Bian, and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Bian!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Jiang also answered immediately.


    Zhang xiudao said: "as a magistrate of Yifang County, you are persistent and unswerving. You can be a model. This time, Dou Ke was transferred to be the prefect, and you took the post of county Cheng to assist Dou Ke in dealing with the administrative affairs of Longxi County. I hope you can keep your original intention. I hope that your future will not be limited to a prefect, but to a prefect or even a higher place. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    After hearing this, Jiang Zhen was extremely excited and said, "I will do my best to live up to your Highness''s earnest instruction."


    Dou Ke looks in the eye, in the heart emotion.


    Jiang Bi, this guy, had a bad luck.


    With what Zhang Xiu said just now, Jiang Peng will surely make great progress in the future. Because of Zhang Xiu''s praise, Jiang''s promotion is irresistible, and even he, the prefect, may not be as good as Jiang.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in the chaos of Longxi County, you two, a prefect and a prefect, should cooperate sincerely and stabilize the chaos as soon as possible. What should be made up for by the people should be made up. What should be put out of order should be put out of order as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    At the same time, Jiang Peng and Dou Ke should go down.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay much, but after a warning, she left Didao county directly.


    Today''s situation in Yizhou is what concerns Zhang Xiu.


    We have to hurry to Yizhou.


    Although the situation in Yizhou has not deteriorated and Zhang Ren has not gone north, Liu Zhang is still in Chengdu. However, Pang Tong and Zhang Yan can''t go south, which is what Zhang Xiu is worried about.


    Yizhou must be won.


    Only by seizing the whole of Yizhou can Zhang Xiu have a truly stable rear area.

 Chapter 806

    Zhang Xiu led the army all the way to the East, Hanyang County, and met Yang Xiu in Ji county. Yang Xiu''s opportunity was Zhang Xiu''s.


    Zhang Xiu remembers that Cao Cao once said in his history that if there were no orphans in the world, he did not know how many people would be emperors and how many would be kings. As a matter of fact, now that Cao Cao can''t suppress the situation, countless people have emerged, and they no longer control their ambitions.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a royal guard entered.


    The royal guards knelt down on one knee and said, "to the king of Qin, we have the latest information from Jizhou."


    Wang Yue immediately came forward, took it and handed it to Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu opened it and looked at it, he showed a smile on his face and said, "Li Ru is right. Our general yuan is not satisfied with being king. He is now in Yecheng, the founding of the emperor. The name of the state is Jin, the emperor of Jin. People don''t want to call it the king of Jin, but the emperor of Jin. "


    Jia Xu continued: "to say, the place where Yuan Shao is located is the place of Zhao state in the pre Qin period. If he is called king or emperor, he should be the king of Zhao. However, he chose Jin as his national name, which shows his ambition. Zhao, Wei and Han were all part of Jin in the past. Yuan Shao, the emperor of the state of Jin, wanted to show his mind with the help of his national name. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is typical. The heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than the paper. Yuan Shao is such a boaster. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "Yuanzhi, is there any news from Liu Bei? Liu Bei is still in Yuzhou. Now that the world is king, I don''t know how Liu Bei has changed? "

 Chapter 807

    Xu Shu said, "the news about Liu Bei was just sent back yesterday. Liu Bei is different from Yuan Shao and Cao Cao."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "don''t worry, let me guess."


    He pondered a little and said, "Yuan Shao was emperor because he intended to be emperor and did not want to be constrained by the emperor. But Liu Bei is different. He is a great Han''s lineage, and Liu Bei calls himself uncle Liu. "


    "If he is a king, how do the people in the world think of him? Moreover, Yuzhou, where Liu Bei lived, was also under the jurisdiction of Cao Cao. So now Liu Bei is probably called a duke, not a king, right? "


    Zhang Xiu put forward her own views.


    Xu Shu said: "Your Highness is wise. Liu Bei is really called a duke, not a king."


    "According to the news, when Yuan Shao became emperor, Cao Cao issued a special imperial edict in the name of the imperial court to reprimand Yuan Shao. It''s a pity that Yuan Shao killed the envoy he sent. "


    "Yuan Shao was not afraid of Cao Cao and war."


    "But now Liu Bei is cautious. Therefore, Liu Bei is called Duke, and Liu Bei is called Duke of Chu, without any other titles. Chu is the land of Jingchu. When Liu Bei called him Duke of Chu, he made a banner to avenge Liu Biao''s death, so he called him Duke of Chu under the name of Jingchu! "


    Xu Shu said: "Liu Bei''s name is also very intentional."


    Zhang xiudao said: "this is what Liu Bei is like. Before he does things, he likes to play a pretext and make a good name for it. His teacher is famous."


    Xu Shu continued: "in addition, sun ce of Jiangdong is also called King directly, sun CE is called King Wu; Gongsun Zan of Youzhou in the north is called King Yan. The only remaining princes in the world, Jiaozhou, which is far away from the Central Plains, have not moved yet. "


    Zhang xiudao: "in terms of Jiaozhou, the place is far away, but there is no need to manage it for the time being."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "especially now that Yuan Shao is the emperor, the relationship with Cao Cao is not harmonious, and Yuan Shao has been defeated, so it is impossible to unite with Cao Cao for the time being. Next, we will attack Yizhou with all our strength. After we win Yizhou, we will deal with Cao Cao. "


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Xu Shu and others also agreed.


    The situation in today''s world has gradually become clear.


    The princes all over the world have called themselves emperors and kings, and the Great Han Dynasty is falling apart. Under such a premise, it is the question of fighting each other to see who can sweep the world.


    Zhang Xiu understands the current situation and arranges everything. After a day''s stay in Chang''an, she goes back to the backyard to see Huang Yueying and others. Now Zhang Cheng is nearly two years old. She can run, jump and shout. She is very strange and lovely.


    Today''s Zhang Cheng, between eyebrows and eyes, is more and more similar to Zhang Xiu.


    It makes Zhang Xiu like it.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the house for a day, and in the morning of the next day, she led the army south again.


    This time, it was still Langya camp and liehu army. Heishan army and Baima Yicong, who had been damaged in Nanyang County before, still stayed in Chang''an for the time being, so as to recover their strength.


    Zhang Xiu, Sima Yi, Sha Moke, and the two armies quickly went south.


    The army crossed xiegu pass and entered Hanzhong, where they had a rest in Nanzheng County. Now Hanzhong, under the management of Yanpu, is more and more prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.


    After listening to Yan Pu''s report, Zhang Xiu encouraged Yan Pu. After the army was rehabilitated, she continued to go south.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Jiameng county and Jianmen pass, it was nearly March. This is Zhang Xiu''s rush to the south. If not, it will take a longer time.


    The army joined Zhang Ya and Pang Tong and camped temporarily.


    The Chinese Army''s big account, the guests and the hosts are seated.


    Sitting on the throne, Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and Zhang Yan and said, "tell me more about the situation of Yizhou today?"


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, under the current situation, Yizhou, headed by Fazheng and Zhang song, is determined to fight. In particular, they convinced Yizhou people, making the whole Yizhou, twisted into a rope. Under this premise, Liu Zhang''s trust in Zhang Ren is unprecedented. We are short of troops, we can''t take advantage, we can''t attack by force, so we can only stay here. "


    Zhang chin said in a deep voice: "the biggest problem is that we can''t conquer the Jianmen pass."


    "It''s not difficult," Zhang said


    Pang Tong said: "Lord, how to break the Jianmen pass?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "of course, it depends on the flying ball. Hu Mo followed me to Nanyang County. All along, I have mobilized materials and constantly made them make flying balls."


    "Today, there are more than 600 flying balls."


    "Although the flying ball consumes a lot, as long as the flying ball transports a large number of soldiers into Jianmen pass and attacks inside and outside, Zhang Ren will be defeated. It seems that there are plank roads along the way of Jianmen pass. One man is the pass and ten thousand people are not allowed to open it. "


    "But in fact, one flying ball carries 15 people and more than 600 flying balls, which is enough to support more than 9000 soldiers. After this group of soldiers entered, it was really easy to defeat Zhang Ren. "


    Zhang Xiu looks confident.


    Now it is not difficult for him to break the Jianmen pass."My Lord is wise!"


    When Pang Tong heard this, he was overjoyed.


    Before that, Pang Tong also considered the use of flying ball transportation, only considering that there are not many flying balls. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu made so many flying balls in a short time.


    This dense flying ball is enough to cross the whole plank road of Jianmen pass, and then gain a foothold in Jianmen pass.


    Pang Tong said, "Lord, when shall we send troops?"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t even want to think about it. She said directly: "all the way, all the soldiers who belong to the flying ball are very tired. For a while, and a day off. "


    Pang Tong once again said, "tomorrow''s wind direction is unknown for the time being. What if the wind is not right? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "with regard to the wind direction, Hu Mo has found that the risk is not invariable at different altitudes after liftoff. The wind on the ground may be southerly, but when it reaches a certain height in the air, the wind direction will change. Not only that, the height of the lift off can also be constantly raised. During this period of time, Hu Mo''s flying ball has been constantly creating new heights. "


    In fact, this is also the point of Zhang Xiu.


    Under the elaboration of Zhang Xiu, the Mohist children, headed by Hu Mo, constantly studied and finally got this result.


    Today''s flying ball is a sharp weapon.


    When Pang Tong heard this, he couldn''t wait to get up. He rubbed his hands and said, "up to now, there is a chance to make a breakthrough. We have been trapped outside the Jianmen pass, especially the narrow road. The pass stands between the two mountains, surrounded by many plank roads. It''s too hard to deal with Zhang Ren. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face is full of smile, said: "tomorrow, we wait and see."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu ordered: "the army will continue to be stationed. Now, let''s go to Jianmen pass. Now all the princes in the world are called kings. On the contrary, it''s Liu Zhang who is able to stabilize himself. It''s also interesting. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu got up and went out.


    Sima Yi, Pang Tong, Zhang Ya, Ma Chao and others, together with Zhang Xiu, left the military camp and came to Jianmen pass.


    Jianmen pass is more dangerous than Baishui pass and Jiameng pass.


    On both sides of the mountain is the sky, steep upright, it is a cliff. The Jianmen pass lies between the two mountains. The most important thing is that after entering the Jianmen pass, although there is an open place, if you go along the road between the two mountains, you can''t go south. You can only enter the mountain stream of the two mountains more and more.


    Leaving the road, is a plank road.


    Only along the plank road can we leave Jianmen pass and finally continue to go south to Zitong county.


    Zhang Xiu rode up and looked up at the city. She said in a loud voice, "where is elder martial brother Zhang Xiu

 Chapter 808

    Zhang Ren is now in Jianmen pass, and his troops have reached 30000.


    On the one hand, before Zhang Xiu released the prisoners, many soldiers returned to Jianmen pass and then merged into Zhang Ren''s command. On the other hand, Liu Zhang of Chengdu dispatched soldiers to Jianmen pass to increase Zhang Ren''s troops.


    Although countless prisoners had been withdrawn before, what the soldiers said stirred the hearts of the people in Shu County, which made the public opinion of Shu county very unfavorable to Liu Zhang.


    However, with the joint efforts of Zhang Song and FA Zheng, the situation was quickly reversed.


    With the help of Jianmen pass, Zhang Ren no longer wants to compete with Zhang Xiu. In fact, Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are much better than him. It''s humiliating to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Zhang Ren just wanted to stay.


    Zhang Ren put his hands on the wall of the city and stood on the gate. He said in a loud voice: "Your Royal Highness, the king of Qin, is very honored. I don''t know. Your highness, what''s your order? "


    He admired Zhang Xiu for becoming king of Qin.


    This younger martial brother is really powerful.


    Facing the attack of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, they not only defeated each other, but also forced the imperial court to confer the title of king of Qin.


    For ordinary people, who can do it?


    It is Zhang Xiu who has such ability. No one else could have such ability.


    His emotion towards Zhang Xiu is very complicated.


    He was afraid of Zhang Xiu, because he was defeated in two battles with Zhang Xiu. Not only was Zhang Xiu easily captured baishuiguan, but also was easily defeated in Zhang Xiu''s hands and became Zhang Xiu''s prisoner.


    He was grateful to Zhang Xiu, because even if Zhang Xiu captured him, he still regarded him as his elder martial brother, and instead directly released him and all the prisoners. Despite Zhang Xiu''s intentions, he was grateful for Zhang Xiu''s release.


    In the middle of the night, when he dreamt back, he also asked himself whether he should work for Zhang Xiu. After all, his younger martial brother, Zhang Xiu, was the leader of the party, far more than Liu Zhang.


    But such an idea, he just thought about it.


    No more thought.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "elder martial brother, I''m here again now. Before that, Liu Zhang sent envoys to Cao Cao for help. So that Cao Cao United Liu Bei and Yuan Shao to attack Guanzhong. "


    "I have no choice but to withdraw."


    "In the end, with my own strength, I defeated Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s three armies and killed countless people."


    "Now, I''m back."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "elder martial brother, you and I are defeated in the first battle in baishuiguan or the second battle in baishuixian. When you arrived at Jiameng pass, you were sent to Jianmen pass because of Liu Zhang''s distrust. Now you are fighting with me again, and you can''t stop it. "


    WOW!!


    The soldiers stationed on the tower were in an uproar.


    In fact, ordinary soldiers in the army did not know that Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others jointly attacked Zhang Xiu.


    The news didn''t get out.


    After all, the news of Liu Zhang was slow. Even if Liu Zhang knew earlier that Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei might attack Zhang Xiu. However, we are not sure. There must be no definite information. When Liu Zhang got the clear news, he knew that Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were attacking at the same time. However, the news of the defeat of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei came back.


    In the end, Liu Zhang did not publicize.


    Only some of the main people under Liu Zhang knew.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu broke the story. When everyone knew about it, all the soldiers in the army were in an uproar.


    Everyone was nervous.


    Even the Allied forces of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals, let alone Liu Zhang, let alone them?


    When Zhang Ren heard the soldiers'' comments, he looked around and suddenly felt a thump in his heart.


    It''s a trick!


    Zhang Xiu deliberately weakened his morale.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Zhang Ren snorted and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, don''t talk nonsense. You fight in the Central Plains, because Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others are not smart, trying to fight with you head-on, and eventually defeated. I admit that when it comes to frontal fighting, my soldiers are certainly not your opponents. However, I will not send troops. What I want to do is to stick here and guard the Jianmen pass. As long as my army is at Jianmen pass, it will be difficult for you to enter the hinterland of Yizhou. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "elder martial brother, you are so naive. Last time in baishuiguan, I said I wanted to break the baishuiguan, so I succeeded in breaking the baishuiguan. Now, I still want to talk. Tomorrow, I will start to plan and attack Jianmen pass again. In three days, I will break the sword gate. "


    "Boast!"


    Zhang Ren answered directly.


    His eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "what you rely on is the ball that can fly and can fly into the pass. But I closed the sword door and prepared enough crossbows


    "As long as your fly ball is in range, it must be shot."


    "Besides, all my soldiers in this pass have put away inflammable objects. You want to fly over and attack with fire, that''s wishful thinking. I''ve seen through your tricks. ""The same trick, one use can work. However, if it is used a second time, it will not take effect. "


    Zhang Ren stands on the threshold, very confident.


    Zhang Xiu said: "a fresh, eat all over the sky. Since elder martial brother doesn''t believe it, let''s wait and see. In this world, there is no barrier I can''t break. Since I''ve left my words here, there''s nothing I can''t do. "


    Zhang Ren said: "arrogance!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you are arrogant, you will know after the war. Since elder martial brother doesn''t believe it, would you like to bet with me? "


    Zhang Ren said: "what kind of gambling?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "just block whether I can take the Jianmen pass. If I take the Jianmen pass, my elder martial brother will no longer insist on it and submit to me. What do you think?"


    The soldiers on the tower heard the words, and one by one they talked.


    "This embroidery is really a courteous corporal!"


    "Yes, in order to attract general Zhang, he once again proposed to stop it."


    "Last time, just for the sake of General Zhang, he released people directly. We prisoners, too. Now, Zhang Xiu wants to recruit general Zhang again. It''s really hard to give up. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    "Alas, who made our general Zhang excellent in martial arts?"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers kept talking.


    Hearing the comments of the soldiers on the tower, Zhang Ren turned to look at the soldiers under his command and yelled, "shut up


    Everyone, silence now.


    These soldiers were quite awed by Zhang Ren.


    Zhang Ren thought in his heart that what he considered was not the matter of obedience to Zhang Xiu, but whether he could use it to resist Zhang Xiu and even completely solve the crisis in Yizhou.


    All of a sudden, Zhang Ren came up with a plan. He said in a loud voice: "King Qin, you just mentioned that after breaking the baishuiguan pass, I will submit to you. But what if you can''t break the white water pass? "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she began to smile.


    Here''s the chance!


    As long as Zhang Ren is willing to bet, this is the opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "since elder martial brother asked, what are the conditions for elder martial brother?"


    Zhang Ren''s face was solemn, and there was a voice on the ground: "if you can''t break the baishuiguan pass, then your army will directly withdraw from Yizhou. After that, you don''t attack the Lord any more


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu let any hesitation, directly on the mouth.


    For Zhang Xiu, it''s easy for him to win Jianmen pass in three days.


    But Sima Yi was in a hurry. She came forward and said, "my Lord, you can''t!"


    For the current situation, although Sima Yi knew that there was a flying ball, she was not afraid of 10000, just in case. Once there is a sudden event that can''t be resisted, it''s not good.


    But Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "I have made up my mind. I don''t need to persuade you any more."


    Sima Yi sighed in her heart.


    Zhang Ren, who closed the sword door, saw this, but a smile came from the corner of his mouth. Because he thinks that under the current situation, since Sima Yi has come out against it, it means that Zhang Xiu may not be sure.

 Chapter 809

    After Zhang Xiu said something, she didn''t stay any longer. She turned around and left with Sima Yi and others. At this time, Sima Yi was anxious and said, "Lord, why do you have to promise Zhang Ren? Even if we don''t agree, it''s only a matter of time before we win the Jianmen pass. What should we do in case of an emergency? "


    "No harm!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Sima Yi is still some sigh, feel that Zhang Xiu agreed hastily.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Zhongda, the condition for Zhang Ren and I is that once there is an accident and we can''t conquer Jianmen pass, we will withdraw. However, I didn''t say that after I withdraw, I won''t let the rest attack! "


    Ah!


    Sima Yi exclaimed.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu had such a plan.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "when it comes to the major events of a country, I will not abolish the public for personal reasons. You can rest assured of such a great event. What''s more, now that we have the chance to win Jianmen pass and surrender Zhang Ren, why not do it? "


    Sima Yi said: "my Lord is wise!"


    At this moment, is Sima Yi really ginger or spicy.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind is really profound.


    When Sima Yi looked at Zhang Xiu, she looked in awe. Because in front of her, Zhang Xiu was really powerful. When she took one step, she had already considered the further two or three steps, and even more.


    The party returned to the barracks, and the castle of Jianmen pass.


    Zhang Ren''s face was solemn.


    He called out the soldiers guarding the city, especially the soldiers in charge of the watchtower and the soldiers in charge of the bow and crossbow, and said in a deep voice, "did you hear what happened just now? These three days will be crucial. As long as we hold the Jianmen pass, Zhang Xiu will fulfill the agreement and lead the soldiers to leave. In this way, Yizhou will no longer be affected by the war. "


    After a pause, Zhang Ren said: "this is my chance to Yizhou. You must be energetic and never let up a little bit. Do you understand?"


    "Got it!"


    All the soldiers should go down.


    The soldiers'' faces were full of fighting spirit.


    But in the eyes of many soldiers, there is curiosity. They pondered in their hearts, in case Zhang Ren really lost, then, how should Zhang Ren deal with it? Just one by one, the soldiers directly suppressed their curiosity and did not dare to ask. After all, they were only the most common soldiers in the army.


    After Zhang Ren made some arrangements, he specially reminded the soldiers in charge of the watchtower to watch the air carefully.


    Because in Zhang Ren''s view, Zhang Xiu''s attack must rely on the flying ball.


    As long as you hold Zhang Xiu''s flying ball, you will win this battle.


    After all this, Zhang Rencai returned to his room.


    Gu can came up and said, "general, you bet with Zhang Xiu. If you lose, do you really want to submit to Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Ren said: "since we have agreed, if Zhang Xiu can really break the Jianmen pass, why not submit to him? In other words, I owe Zhang Xiu a lot of favor, and I''m grateful to my Lord. "


    "Sandwiched in the middle, particularly uncomfortable."


    "Now, with a bet with Zhang Xiu, I can live up to both sides. If Zhang Xiu breaks the Jianmen pass, I will surrender. If Zhang Xiu can''t break the Jianmen pass, then Zhang Xiu will have to fulfill the agreement, and I can defend Yizhou for the Lord. "


    "Zhang Xiulian could easily defeat the army of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei."


    "In such a situation, even with the help of Fazheng and Zhangsong, and the persuasion of others, the Lord can''t resist with all his strength. Therefore, if there is a way to retreat from Zhang Xiu, it''s natural to have a try. "


    When Zhang Ren spoke, he was quite helpless.


    Now the situation is quite unfavorable for Yizhou.


    Gu can said: "but in case, even if Zhang Xiu is defeated, he will not retreat?"


    Zhang Ren continued: "Zhang Xiu is Zhang Xiu. I can''t manage what he does, and I can''t manage it. What I can do is to gamble that Zhang Xiu will fulfill the agreement. What''s more, we have no choice. What I can do is to do what I want to do well. Besides, there''s no other way


    Gu can said, "that''s true!"


    For the current situation, Gu can also knows that it can only be like this.


    I can''t control the rest.


    ¡­¡­


    Zhang Xiu is in the camp.


    The area where the flying ball is located.


    In this area, behind the camp, the soldiers look solemn.


    With the increase of flying balls, there is also the selection of soldiers to control flying balls. Because in previous wars, the flying ball has shown extraordinary combat effectiveness, and many soldiers in the army are familiar with it, so it is easy to select the soldiers who fly the ball.


    More than 600 people, all assembled.


    Standing in front of all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a loud voice, "all of you have arrived at Jianmen pass. Now, you can have confidence to cross Jianmen pass and fly to the back of Jianmen pass."


    "Yes!"


    Hu Mo and his soldiers answered together.Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the flying balls in the army, from the beginning of 43 to now, are more than 600. Although it is only over 600, its combat effectiveness is no less than that of the first army. In the battle of baishuiguan, the flying ball camp burned the inside of the pass, making Zhang Ren retreat; in the battle of Nanyang County, the flying ball took off and burned the Cao Liu allied forces. Now, these flying balls have made countless achievements. From today on, I will build another army for all the flying balls. Where you are, you will be given the name of "Flying Eagle" and the name of "Flying Eagle camp"


    "Thank King Qin for his name!"


    Hu Mo was very excited.


    Since then, each of his flying balls has become an army, and they are no less than any of Zhang Xiu''s arms.


    "Thank King Qin for his name!"


    "Thank King Qin for his name!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers of the flying eagle camp kept shouting.


    Everyone, cheering.


    Everyone, excited.


    Because this day, enough to make them all excited.


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said, "I hope you will take off tomorrow and pass through Jianmen pass. You will live up to the name of flying eagle camp."


    "I will win!"


    Hu Mo roared again.


    "I will win!"


    "I will win!"


    All the people kept shouting, and the soldiers'' faces were filled with high morale.


    After giving encouragement to the soldiers in the army, Zhang Xiu stopped talking and turned around to return to the big account of the Chinese army. Everything has been arranged, and the next moment is waiting for action.


    As time goes by, it''s the next day.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    The warm sun in spring, scattered down, the whole camp, is already a piece of golden. At the rear of the camp, the soldiers of the flying eagle camp were all in place, and the hot-air balloons had been ignited. Although the coal and stone were burning, the hot-air balloons slowly expanded and began to lift off.


    A huge hanging basket, across the air.


    In each basket, the Mohist children are in place, and the manipulators are all in place.


    More than 9000 soldiers, all in formation.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, one by one the soldiers have entered, respectively, into the hanging basket.


    Besides, Ganning is also in it.


    Gan Ning volunteered.


    He didn''t want to stay in the army, so he took the initiative to ask to go so as to command the soldiers in the army. Gan Ning''s flying ball, however, was driven by Hu Mo, who was the leader of all the flying balls. Gan Ning issued orders to control all the people''s actions.


    After everyone entered, with the hook rising, one by one hot-air balloon continued to expand, has been slowly lifted off.


    More than 600 hot air balloons were launched, which was spectacular.


    The scene is incomparably magnificent.

 Chapter 810

    One by one, the flying balls slowly take off.


    Gan Ning and Hu Mo together, when the flying ball slowly rises, his heart suddenly suspended in mid air. After all, people in the air, there is always a considerable maladjustment, feel that the whole person some empty.


    However, when the flying ball more and more into the air, enough to overlook the earth, Ganning''s heart, but also raised endless ambition. Because such a scene shocked and stunned him and changed his previous impression.


    When the flying balls rose one by one and the whole flying eagle camp rose, not far from the camp, all the spies at random widened their eyes and showed an incredible look.


    Too much!


    It''s too many flying balls.


    In the past, there were more than 40 flying balls in baishuiguan.


    Today, the sky is so dense that it almost blocks out the sun. Even in a short period of time, even the sun in the sky seems to be blocked.


    Zhang Ren arranged for the sentry to be called Tao Shi. He also followed Zhang Ren and was well-informed. However, seeing the dense flying balls, he was even more scared to drop on the ground.


    It''s scary.


    Tao Shi didn''t arrange for the soldiers to report back. He ordered the hidden sentry to continue to inquire. Then he quickly came to the position where the horses were tied. He turned over and mounted his horse and went straight to the gate of Jianmen pass.


    Tao Shi galloped all the way without any delay.


    He dare not delay.


    When Tao Shi returned to Jianmen pass and came to the upper floor of the gate city, he saw Zhang Ren and couldn''t wait to report: "general, here comes Zhang Xiu''s flying ball. This time, far more than before in baishuiguan. Too much, too much. Dense, I guess, at least hundreds of flying balls are coming towards our Jianmen pass. "


    Zhang Ren laughed, looked down at Gu can and said, "Sir, this is the way Zhang Xiu works. I said, his trump card must be the flying ball. Now, that''s true. "


    Tao Shi said, "general, what shall we do?"


    Zhang Ren confidently said, "what''s the panic? There are lots of crossbows and arrows on the upper floor of Jianmen pass. As long as Zhang Xiu''s flying balls come and the crossbows are fired at the same time, all the flying balls have to fall down. Zhang Xiu''s attack is not worth mentioning. "


    When Tao and Shi listen to it, they suddenly feel like a big family.


    The look of panic on his face also disappeared and calmed down.


    Zhang Ren said: "you don''t have to go to Zhang Xiu''s news in person. It''s enough to have other people deliver the news. Now, go and stare at the Bowman. Once Zhang Xiu''s flying ball arrives, immediately order the attack. "


    "Here it is


    Tao Shi was ordered to turn around and retreat.


    Gu can smiles on his face and says: "it''s still the general''s wisdom. Early on, we will judge Zhang Xiu''s means. Early arrangement sentry to go, is already fixed on Zhang Xiu''s move


    Zhang Ren took a deep breath and said, "I have to be prepared to fight with Zhang Xiu several times. Zhang Xiu, in particular, is extremely cunning. He should watch his movements and be careful not to make a big mistake. "


    Gu can said: "the general is wise!"


    Zhang Ren thought about it, stood up and said, "let''s go to the tower. I want to see how spectacular Zhang Xiu''s flying ball is. "


    Gu can said, "I''m with the general!"


    When they arrived at the tower of the city, they waited quietly. At this time, Zhang Ren had sent orders to the soldiers on the tower of the city, as well as all the soldiers who controlled the crossbow. He ordered the soldiers to prepare the crossbow and ready to shoot at any time.


    In addition, Zhang Ren arranged archers.


    When the crossbow doesn''t work, the bow may be useful.


    All the people on the city floor, cheer up.


    One by one, they are full of energy.


    In the waiting of everyone, time passes quietly.


    A quarter of an hour!


    Two quarters of an hour!


    At this time, Zhang Ren frowned slightly, and his face looked dignified. Two quarters of an hour has passed. It is reasonable to say that with the distance between Zhang Xiu camp and Jianmen pass, the flying ball is flying across the sky. Even if it is slow, it will take less than two quarters of an hour.


    Zhang Ren is still waiting patiently.


    Gu can looked at Tao Shi and said in a deep voice, "Tao Shi, are you sure that all the flying balls of Zhang Xiu have been launched?"


    "Sure!"


    Tao Shi''s definite answer.


    After that, Tao Shi looked at the flag on the upper floor of the city and said, "Sir, the direction of the flag''s shaking is also the south wind. It''s not blowing in another direction. This means that after Zhang Xiu''s flying ball is launched, it must be in our direction. It''s impossible to go in the other direction. "


    Gu can said in a deep voice, "but it''s been a long time, and it hasn''t come yet."


    Zhang Ren said: "maybe it''s a delay. Wait for a while. Anyway, we are not in a hurry. In the current situation, let''s wait and see. "


    Gu can nodded and said nothing more.


    It''s another quarter of an hour.


    At this time, Zhang Ren''s heart has been gradually a little impatient. Even though Zhang Ren''s psychological quality is good, in fact, when he encounters such things, he is inevitably nervous."Pottery stone!"


    Zhang renphen said.


    "Yes


    Tao Shi answered immediately.


    Zhang Ren said: "you immediately go to Zhang Xiu''s camp and ask the sentinel nearby, what kind of situation is Zhang Xiu''s flying ball?"


    "Here it is


    Tao Shi answered directly.


    He galloped to the direction of the camp, and then rushed to the camp. It took him only a little more than a quarter of an hour to get there. After inquiring the nearby sentries, he learned that all the flying balls were going to the Jianmen pass.


    This situation made Tao Shi nervous.


    Tao Shi didn''t dare to delay his time. He quickly drove his horse back. When he came to the city tower.


    This time, more than two quarters of an hour has passed.


    Tao Shi quickly reported: "general, all the flying balls of Zhang Xiu are really in the air, and they come to the direction of Jianmen pass. However, on the way back, I looked up at the sky and didn''t see a flying ball in the sky. Is this flying away? Or, it''s already gone to the rest of the world. "


    "No, it can''t be!"


    Zhang Ren shook his head and said: "since it''s in this direction, it must be to our Jianmen pass. However, all the flying balls of Zhang Xiu have disappeared, which is a little strange. "


    Gu can said: "can they fly to our rear?"


    Zhang Ren said: "it''s possible!"


    Gu can said, "in that case, what shall we do?"


    Zhang Ren shook his head and said, "I can''t help it, because there are many plank roads behind the Jianmen pass. Such a place, we can not be sure. If you can''t find the other person''s trace, you can''t start. "


    At this moment, Zhang Ren''s heart hung up.


    The soldiers on the tower were also in an uproar and began to talk about each other. At this time, the soldiers, who were already calm down, suddenly began to feel palpitation and worry.


    Zhang renhuan Gu Cheng upstairs, ordered: "give me the spirit, in the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, this battle, must go all out.". Even if we don''t know the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu''s flying ball, we will win this battle. "


    All the soldiers nodded busily.


    Zhang Ren''s hands are on the wall, holding the wall tightly, and his eyes are shining with anger.


    At the same time, Zhang Ren is also thinking.


    How to deal with it?


    If this war cannot be resisted, he will have to fulfill the agreement and submit to Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Ren was in a dilemma, Gan Ning and others in the sky were gradually away from Jianmen pass. After flying into Jianmen pass, they could see the ground from the sky, so they began to descend slowly.


    With the firepower of the balloon, a little bit weakened, the weight of the basket, more than the buoyancy of the balloon, has begun to continue down.

 Chapter 811

    When the distance from the ground, less than 30 Zhang, Hu Mo has been a rapid survey of the ground.


    The ground ahead is flat.


    It is no longer a mountain, no longer a rolling hill.


    "Decline, accelerate the decline."


    Hu Mo gave the order. After he gave the order, soldiers quickly waved the flag. At the same time, there were also loud arrows. The two command modes are transmitted at the same time, so that everyone can know.


    As Hu Mo''s balloon descended, so did the people behind him.


    One by one, falling.


    Keep getting closer to the ground.


    When the distance between the basket and the ground is less than six feet, the flying ball will not drop steadily, and the soldiers will jump off the basket quickly.


    After getting out of the basket, Gan Ning lifted up his trousers and peed. Then he stretched out his muscles and said in a loud voice: "Damn, I dare not move in the basket. I''m suffocating. I''m still comfortable on the ground. Although you look down in the sky and overlook countless places, you are still uncomfortable. "


    After he finished, he looked at the soldiers around him.


    One flying ball after another, falling.


    More and more people have landed safely.


    Gan Ning looked around all the people and ordered: "the whole army, listen to the order, line up!"


    One by one, quick formation.


    At this time, Hu Mo is also looking at the flying ball, because the number of each flying ball is marked on the ball. So he counted it roughly, and finally found that none of the flying balls had fallen, and all of them landed in this open space.


    Gan Ning watched the soldiers gather and thought a little, so he arranged for some soldiers to go around and let out the sentries.


    A quarter of an hour later, all the soldiers assembled.


    More than 9000 soldiers, many of them, all in position.


    Hu Mo and his subordinates have been collecting the spheres quickly, ready to put the flying spheres on their backs.


    When Hu Mo finished everything, he came to Gan Ning and reported: "general, the 600 soldiers of our flying eagle camp are all in place. We can fight at any time."


    Gan Ning waved his hand and said: "Lao Hu, you are not the same. You are from the flying eagle camp, and the people from the flying eagle camp are not suitable for fighting. Next, just follow us. "


    Hu Mo said: "how can this work?"


    During the march with Zhang Xiu, they not only made weapons, but also practiced themselves and their martial arts. Under this premise, their physical fitness is very good. In particular, the children of Mohist school are not spoiled. They are all strong and well versed in martial arts.


    Gan Ning said again: "Lao Hu, don''t make trouble. If you have any damage on the battlefield, it''s me who gets beaten and scolded. Now, you just need to follow us. "


    "All right!"


    When Hu Mo saw this, he no longer insisted.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentry came to Ganning quickly.


    Ganning said, "what''s the matter?"


    Sentinel report: "general, there is a team of more than 1000 people in our South four miles away. These troops are escorting grain. It is estimated that they are escorting grain to Jianmen pass. "


    "Heaven sent me too!"


    When Ganning heard this, he burst out laughing.


    He had a sharp look in his eyes and said in a deep voice, "put away all the baskets and hide them nearby. Then, we immediately ambushed on both sides of the official road. When the food delivery team comes, we will kill each other directly, and then our people will go there as the food delivery team. "


    "Here it is


    When all the soldiers are ordered, they will not say much.


    One by one, the soldiers moved quickly and began to choose the location of the ambush. In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiu and all the soldiers under her command were hiding without any trace.


    A little bit of history.


    When the food delivery team arrived at the ambush site of Ganning, the soldiers under Ganning''s command quickly surrounded the food delivery team.


    At this moment, the convoy of grain was confused.


    No one thought that it would be surrounded, and all of them were Zhang Xiu''s people.


    Fazheng is also in the team.


    FA Zheng''s face was full of surprise. When he went north, he actually volunteered to help Zhang Ren. When he wanted to deliver food to Zhang Ren, he asked himself to go to Jianmen pass to help Zhang Ren.


    I didn''t expect to be robbed on the way.


    Gan Ning looked around at all the soldiers escorting the grain and said in a deep voice, "throw away all your weapons and kneel down and surrender. Otherwise, there will be no amnesty. If you cooperate well, I will spare you one life. "


    "Plop! Plop


    One by one, the soldiers threw away their weapons.


    Under the current circumstances, he has no choice but to do anything.After all, there are thousands of people around.


    And they were escorting food.


    Gan Ning saw everyone surrender, with a smile on his face. With a wave of his hand, his soldiers quickly stepped forward and detained all the Yizhou soldiers of Liu Zhang.


    After finishing all this, Gan Ning waved his hand and told the soldiers to take off the coats of all Yizhou soldiers. Then, he used ropes to tie up Yizhou soldiers and threw them on the ground.


    Fazheng was also stripped of his coat.


    At this moment, Fazheng was very angry, but he didn''t have any way.


    This time, it''s too humiliating. He was going to help Zhang Ren, but he didn''t expect to be so humiliating.


    Gan Ning didn''t take charge of the FA Zheng group. He directly ordered: "go, let''s go!"


    He had 1000 soldiers under his command. He put on Yizhou soldiers'' clothes and quickly went to the direction of Jianmen pass. The rest of the army, on the other hand, quietly followed in order to hide their whereabouts.


    At this time, Hu Mo suddenly said: "general Gan, I have an idea."


    Ganning said, "what''s the idea?"


    Hu Mo replied: "when we came, the king of Qin ordered us to enter the pass, and then we went straight to the Jianmen pass. We launched an attack. The king of Qin would launch an attack only after the war happened. But now, it''s different. With this group of grain troops, we can quietly approach the Jianmen pass and launch another attack in it. So, when I suggested, we immediately arranged two flying balls to fly back to inform the king of Qin and ask him to prepare to attack. "


    "Yes!"


    Gan Ning said: "yes, is there enough slack anthracite?"


    Hu Mo replied, "certainly enough."


    Ganning said: "then go ahead. You can arrange your own soldiers of the flying eagle camp."


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo directly responded.


    Immediately, Hu Mo selected two people, then quickly ordered some, and then help the rapid launch. After two flyballs left, Hu Mo followed Gan Ning and others to the direction of Jianmen pass.


    The two flying balls took off. Because of the southerly wind, they had to continue to take off. After a considerable elevation, we found the right wind direction and headed north quickly.


    The speed of the flying ball is much faster than that of Gan Ning and others.


    First, I went back to the barracks.


    When the flying ball landed near the barracks, the soldiers in the flying ball quickly returned to the barracks, met Zhang Xiu in the Chinese army tent and reported the current situation.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was overjoyed.


    It''s done!


    But now, it''s past noon.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she immediately ordered all the soldiers in the army to gather together, and ordered the army to go to Jianmen pass.


    When Sima Yi and Pang Tong arrived and learned that Gan Ning had succeeded, they were all excited.


    The impregnable Jianmen pass is about to fall.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu went straight to Jianmen pass. Less than two quarters of an hour, Zhang Xiu''s army, once again arrived at Jianmen pass, black army formation, powerful.


    Although there are less than 10000 troops, there are regular troops led by Zhang Ya, flying Qiang troops, Langya camp and liehu troops, all of which are at least 60000 troops.


    This army is approaching, and the city is already under the pressure of black clouds.


    Its offensive is immense.


    The pressure is suffocating.


    On the tower, Zhang Ren, dressed in armor, looked at the dark army outside the city. He was surprised. At this time, Zhang Xiu has already led the soldiers to the city tower. Is it possible that Zhang Xiu is sure to win the sword gate.

 Chapter 812

    Zhang Ren''s face was solemn, and he took the initiative to say: "Zhang Xiu, you are coming with the army today. Are you ready to break the Jianmen pass today? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "there are two things that elder martial brother said. I''ll bring the soldiers here."


    Zhang Ren said: "which two things?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "the first thing is the time for me to break through the Jianmen pass. It should be two days later, which is the third day we agreed. After all, what we agreed was three days, so we should choose three days."


    "Arrogance


    Zhang Ren replied.


    Zhang Xiu said that one day to break, one day to break, it is mysterious.


    He didn''t believe it.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the second thing is elder martial brother''s crossbow. I''m afraid it''s useless. All the flying balls under my command are, well, the soldiers of the flying eagle camp. "


    "All the flying balls are flying eagle camp."


    "All the soldiers of the flying eagle camp have crossed the Jianmen pass from the air and entered the inside of the Jianmen pass. Next, they will arrive at Jianmen pass soon. "


    "Well, that''s what I said just now. They expect to break the Jianmen pass in two days, and they will return to the Jianmen pass in two days. After all, the flying ball flies too high after it''s launched, which makes it difficult to land. I''m afraid it''s already far away. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed into a line, with a thick smile.


    In the eyes, there is a touch of cunning.


    WOW!!


    When the soldiers on the tower heard this, they were all surprised.


    No one thought it would be like this.


    It''s shocking.


    Zhang Xiu''s flying balls have all gone into the pass.


    At this time, Sima Yi''s eyes were full of cunning. The LORD was worthy of being the Lord. Every word was a pit. The message sent back by Mingming Ganning is to seize Jianmen pass today. However, Zhang Xiu said that two days later, she did this on purpose to let Zhang Ren have preconceived ideas, so that Zhang Ren could relax his vigilance.


    Pang Tong and others all laughed.


    All the people under Zhang Xiu''s command outside the city are quite relaxed, but all the people under Zhang Ren''s command are dignified and nervous.


    The soldiers in the army, in particular, were alarmed.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "listen to the soldiers on the tower, you know how Wang has always been. When I came to Yizhou, I didn''t want to kill more. Some of you have been defeated by the king. Now the king is at war with you again. I don''t want to kill more people. Those who should leave can leave and stay for a fight. I''m proud of life and death. "


    These words made the soldiers in the upper City worried.


    Many soldiers were once captives.


    For Zhang Xiu, have instinctive awe, so now, hear Zhang Xiu''s words, will be so nervous and afraid.


    "Shut up to Ben!"


    Zhang Ren turned to look at the soldiers guarding the city and scolded: "Zhang Xiu''s bewitching words scared you and wasted your years in the army. Zhang Xiu said that''s the case. Is that the case? He wants to break the Jianmen pass in two days. I want to see how he can break it. "


    The soldiers were silent.


    Zhang Ren turned around and looked at Zhang Xiu. He said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, you will attack again in two days. I''d like to see if you can help me when you lead the army so early."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s nothing. Don''t worry. I''ll wait here. The army waiting to enter will attack you, and then I will cooperate with you. "


    Zhang Ren clenched his teeth and said coldly: "Zhang Xiu, you say so much and do so, just take this opportunity to suppress the morale of our soldiers and disintegrate my morale. What do you say to attack after two days, what do you say to fly the ball into the pass, maybe, all these are your lies, you deliberately made up


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you want to say that, what else can I say? I''m afraid I can only praise elder martial brother. It''s very clever of you to see through all my ideas. I said, "the flying ball didn''t enter the pass. I was just bluffing you. Do you believe it?"


    Zhang Ren''s eyes turned and swept the soldiers under his command.


    All the soldiers looked dark.


    Obviously, they are afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing such a situation, Zhang Ren resented it. Zhang Xiu always suppressed his morale first and tried his best to weaken the morale of his army and the fighting spirit of his soldiers.


    This time, it''s still the same.


    But Zhang Xiu succeeded.


    Zhang Ren doesn''t want to talk any more. He is the one who is really at the disadvantage of talking with Zhang Xiu.


    The two sides confronted each other, but Zhang Xiu continued to talk with each other. In the twinkling of an eye, it was Shenshi time in the afternoon. By this time, Zhang Xiu had already returned to the army and let her soldiers come forward to scold.


    Zhang Ren looks in the eye, but does not care.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The rapid sound of footsteps came from not far away from Zhang Ren, but Gu can came. Gu can stood beside Zhang Xiu and said: "general, just received the news, the team escorting the grain and grass is approaching the Jianmen pass. It''s less than six li away from Jianmen pass. ""Almost. There was news before, and this time, Fazheng himself went north."


    Zhang Ren gritted his teeth and said, "we have no way to deal with Zhang Xiu. But he was very talented. He was able to persuade Cao Cao to let Yuan Shao and Liu Bei attack Zhang Xiu together. Now, he has the chance to resist US. After all, a wise man can face Zhang Xiu''s calculations. And Zhang Xiu will attack the city in two days. She has the method and can give advice. "


    Gu can said: "the general is wise!"


    At this time, Zhang Ren has been waiting, and did not doubt. After all, before that, Liu Zhang arranged for people to deliver news, so Zhang Ren knew that France was going north with the food escort.


    Time goes by.


    The troops escorting grain are getting closer and closer to Jianmen pass.


    Gan Ning was at the front of the escort team. When he was less than a mile away from the tower of Jianmen pass, he pulled out his sword and roared: "kill Jianmen pass, capture Zhang Ren alive, kill him!"


    At his command, he rushed out.


    "Kill and break Jianmen pass, capture Zhang Ren alive, kill!"


    "Kill and break Jianmen pass, capture Zhang Ren alive, kill!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers began to shout.


    At the beginning, it was noisy and noisy. But gradually, more than 9000 soldiers yelled, and their voices sounded like the sound of gold and iron. Gan Ning led the soldiers to the gate of Jianmen pass.


    As long as the city gate is occupied, the gate of Jianmen pass is opened, and Zhang Xiu''s army is allowed to enter the city, it is easy to defeat Zhang Ren.


    Ganning''s sudden action shocked Zhang Ren.


    Zhang Ren suddenly felt creepy.


    How is that possible?


    It is clear that those who arrive are grain carriers, and those who arrive are grain escorts led by Fazheng. But now, it was Zhang Xiu''s army that arrived, and it launched an attack directly.


    Zhang Xiu heard outside the pass, but also suddenly ring the drum, ordered the attack.


    "Kill


    Cry to kill, immediately ring out.


    One by one soldiers, straight and fast forward.


    Inside and outside the Jianmen pass, there was a great cry. Especially after Ganning''s attack, Zhang Ren''s army couldn''t resist, so that Ganning''s army had rushed to the gate of the city.


    Under such a premise, Zhang Ren is faced with the attack, and the possibility of resisting it is very small.


    I can''t stop it!


    Creak!!


    Not long after, the gate of Jianmen pass was opened, Ganning''s soldiers were guarding the gate, while Zhang Xiu''s soldiers rushed forward quickly from outside Jianmen pass, and soon they had already rushed into the pass.


    Jianmen pass, broken!

 Chapter 813

    On the tower, Zhang Ren looked at the scene of Jianmen pass being broken, and sighed in his heart.


    Lost!


    He lost to Zhang Xiu again.


    Previously, he heard Zhang Xiu say that he would attack two days later, and he believed it. But I didn''t expect that in the afternoon, Zhang Xiu''s army would attack inside and outside. Even Zhang Xiu''s army, disguised as a troop escorting grain, would directly open the gate from inside the pass.


    This is what Zhang Ren didn''t expect.


    It''s a trick!


    Zhang Xiu''s calculation again.


    Gu can stood aside and asked, "general, the sword gate is broken. What shall we do?"


    Zhang Ren sighed: "what else can I do for the things I have promised? Keep the order, all soldiers. There''s no need to resist. In this war, I''m down! "


    "Here it is


    Gu can got the order and quickly sent it down.


    When the order is given, the officers and men will no longer resist where the troops are stationed in Jianmen pass.


    It''s the same with the soldiers on the tower.


    After a short time, Gan Ning had taken people to the upper floor of Jianmen pass, quickly took over the city defense, and then arranged for people to control Zhang Ren and others.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu began to enter the pass.


    When the army entered the pass, Zhang Xiu came to the city floor of Jianmen pass. He looked at Zhang Ren and said with a smile, "elder martial brother, now you and I have met again. Now, elder martial brother, are you going to fulfill the agreement or stick to it? "


    Plop!!


    Zhang Ren knelt down on the ground and said, "the sinner Zhang Ren is willing to surrender."


    Zhang Xiu helped Zhang Ren up and said, "elder martial brother, this is careless. He says surrender, but he doesn''t say surrender. Elder martial brother, you have promised me that if I break the Jianmen pass, I will be obedient. Are you willing to surrender, elder martial brother? If elder martial brother is not willing. As always, I will release you again, as well as your soldiers. "


    When Zhang Ren heard this, he was ashamed. He was a man with conscience and bottom line, not a man with thick face and dark heart. It was quite embarrassing to hear that Zhang Xiu would release him again.


    Zhang Xiu was released once, he owes a favor.


    If Zhang Xiu releases him again, it will be a great favor for him, and he has no cheek to leave again.


    Zhang Ren took a deep breath, arched his hand and said: "Zhang Ren, willing to submit to the king of Qin."


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu patted Zhang Ren on the shoulder and said, "Zilong never went south in this battle, because before the first battle in Nanyang County, Baima Yi fought Cao Cao and Liu Bei to the death, resulting in huge losses. Now Zilong is resting in Chang''an. When we return to Chang''an, our three brothers will be drunk again. "


    Zhang Ren said: "I am willing to obey the orders of the king of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She said, "now that she has won Jianmen pass, my elder martial brother is familiar with the situation of Yizhou. How do you think she should go south to break Liu Zhang''s defense in the shortest time?"


    "Alas..."


    When Zhang Ren heard the speech, he sighed.


    Zhang Ren said: "King Qin, can I not take part in the next war? Although I was obedient to the king of Qin, in fact, Liu Zhang was kind to me. Without Liu Zhang, there would be no present for me. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t insist.


    In fact, such a Zhang Ren, just let Zhang Xiu more at ease.


    Zhang Ren has a bottom line and persistence, which is a good thing.


    Zhang Xiu did not detain Zhang Ren, just let people take Zhang Ren to rest, did not imprison Zhang Ren, did not control Zhang Ren''s action. But after Zhang Ren walked out of a distance, he suddenly stopped and said, "King Qin, there''s one more thing!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "elder martial brother, it''s OK to say so!"


    Zhang Ren zhengse said: "the army of the king of Qin sneaked into the Jianmen pass by flying ball. It must have won the escorting grain team, so that they could get close quietly."


    "This time, in addition to ordinary soldiers, there were also Fazheng''s entourage."


    "Before that, Fazheng went to see the king of Qin as a diplomatic envoy. He expected that the king of Qin knew the talent of Fazheng. Not only that, Fazheng once sent an envoy to Xudu to meet Cao Cao, but finally there was a coalition of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei. "


    "Fazheng is very capable."


    Zhang Ren said: "the king of Qin can ask people if he has slaughtered all the people who transport food."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "thank you, elder martial brother!"


    For Zhang Xiu, this is quite useful news.


    After Zhang Ren stepped down, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for someone to call Gan Ning and asked, "xingba, you captured Yizhou soldiers who were escorting grain. Have all these people been killed or released?"


    "There was no killing and no release," Ganning said. After the despicable officers forced these people to land, they tied them up with ropes. Now, they are still on the official road in the rear. "


    Zhang Xiu was so happy that she said, "take a thousand soldiers with you and go there as soon as possible. Bring all the prisoners back. The most important thing is that one of the escorts is Fazheng, and he must be brought back. ""Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to turn around and carry out the order.


    Shortly after Gan Ning left, all the prisoners in Jianmen pass had been detained. This time, Zhang Ren broke the Jianmen pass, but he did not fight Zhang Xiu. All his troops of 20000 to 30000 surrendered.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is a resource.


    Before that, when she was in jiamengguan, Zhang Xiu did not kill the prisoners, nor was she willing to leave them. That was because she might not be able to break Yizhou in one go, and she was worried that if she detained the prisoners for a long time, she would consume more food.


    Now, Zhang Ren has returned, and there is food in Jianmen pass. In addition, if he wants to go south in one go, it is impossible for the prisoners to go back to Chengdu, so he will not let them go.


    Everything is in order, but Zhang Xiu came to the barracks, came to all the soldiers in custody.


    Although he has made up his mind to pay attention to others.


    However, he did not want any of these people to be his enemy. Instead, he wanted to completely conquer all the soldiers and make them serve him wholeheartedly.


    This is the goal of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the stage, below which stood nearly 30000 prisoners, as well as Zhang Ren and Gu can.


    Chen Dao, shamoko and others are also listed below.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the prisoners and said in a loud voice: "after half a year or so, my king and you have met again. I and some of you have met before. You are no stranger to me. Today, I broke the Jianmen pass. You have surrendered. Although you have surrendered, I still have something to say in front of you. "


    Under the stage, everyone was quiet, listening to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Meng embroidered in the hearts of the soldiers who were hostile to Zhang, there is no idea of how much appreciation.


    As for the rest of the soldiers transferred from Chengdu, they didn''t know Zhang Xiu and had no contact with her. However, these soldiers revered her for the simple reason that her achievements were frightening.


    Zhang Ren stands at the bottom with a complicated look.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu in front of him, he was a little strange, because Zhang Xiu in front of him was totally different from Zhang Xiu when he studied under Tong Yuan ''.


    Such a person is actually Zhang Xiu who used to be unsophisticated and impulsive.


    It''s said that women have changed a lot.


    As Zhang Xiu grows up, she is more than 18 changes, which makes Zhang Ren a little strange. However, in his heart, he felt gratified because his mentor, Tong Yuan, was so proud to have such a disciple.

 Chapter 814

    Zhang Xiu continued: "all of you should know that Zhang Ren is our elder martial brother. But my elder brother is always loyal and righteous. When he was in Baishui County, although he was captured by my king, he would rather die than surrender. "


    "Therefore, I released my elder martial brother."


    "When he arrived at Jiameng pass, he still led the troops to resist and was unwilling to surrender."


    "It''s still the same at Jianmen pass."


    "My elder martial brother is very righteous. I admire him deeply. I think that there are two reasons why elder martial brother bet with me this time. First, I treat my elder martial brother very well, although I don''t have much kindness. Second, Liu Zhang treats his elder martial brother with kindness. He feels extremely uncomfortable in the middle. "


    "So, elder martial brother chose to make a bet."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and continued: "once the elder martial brother wins, he will be worthy of Liu Zhang''s promotion. Once the elder martial brother loses, he will do his best and be worthy of Liu Zhang''s promotion. Then he will be able to fulfill his friendship with my elder martial brother."


    When he said that, he took a look.


    At this moment, Zhang Ren''s eyes were immediately moist, and his inner emotions were constantly fluctuating.


    Zhang Xiu knows him!


    Zhang Xiu''s words, said that his heart was up.


    Liu Zhang treated him well!


    Zhang Xiu treated him very well!


    The palm and the back of his hand were all meat. He was extremely embarrassed, so he had a bet.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Ren''s change of manner and continued: "now, my king has broken the Jianmen pass. Elder martial brother Zhang Ren has been subordinated to the king and served for him. "


    "You admire your elder martial brother and are willing to obey his orders, so you all surrender."


    "Not all of you are willing to surrender."


    "I have always believed in it. If you try to change things, you can only be willing to do things for a long time. Just like this, I was able to leave my elder martial brother in baishuiguan, but he was absent-minded. I would rather release him and let him go. "


    "It''s the same for elder martial brothers, and it''s the same for you."


    "It''s my pleasure that you are willing to submit to me. However, if you are not willing to submit to our king, our king will not force you, nor will you follow the example of Cao Cao to slaughter prisoners. This is not our king''s style. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words seem simple, but they are full of bewitching.


    He focused on two things.


    The first thing is Zhang Ren''s obedience. With Zhang Ren''s surrender, it can be said that the vast majority of the soldiers may choose to surrender to Zhang Xiu and will no longer be attached to Liu Zhang.


    The second thing is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t force anyone. Those who are willing to surrender are welcome. Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to be submissive, but she doesn''t ask for it, and she does something like massacre.


    In this way, it can cause the prisoner to gain fame.


    Let them recognize Zhang Xiu.


    This is the reason why Zhang Xiu wants to lecture in front of everyone. He wants to accept the heart of all prisoners.


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "so now, I have something to announce. That is, although all of you have chosen to submit, I will not force you to do so. "


    "Those who are willing to follow Zhang Ren and submit to the king. Now go all the way to the right and move all the way to the open space on the right. Those who do not want to surrender will stay where they are. "


    "After the candidates who are not willing to surrender are determined, we will arrange for people to prepare dry food. After receiving the dry food, you can leave Jianmen pass and go south to return to Chengdu."


    "All right, now!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    After Zhang Xiu''s order was given, the soldiers moved to the right quickly.


    It''s moving pretty fast.


    However, the number of soldiers in the original formation was reduced. In less than a quarter of an hour, there was almost no more movement. All the soldiers were quiet.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the soldiers who were standing still.


    Roughly speaking, there are about a thousand people.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu''s mouth stirred up a smile. There were nearly 30000 soldiers, but in the end there were only more than 1000 soldiers. She was unwilling to surrender and was willing to be loyal to Liu Zhang. What a irony.


    But Zhang Xiu was not in a hurry to make a conclusion. She said again: "now, the two camps have been roughly distinguished. But in the end, I''ll give you another quarter of an hour. If a soldier does not move, he can reconsider whether he wants to move his position. Soldiers who have left their places and are willing to surrender can go back now. In a word, until the end, I will accept any decision you make. "


    Zhang Xiu continues to wait.


    At this time, there were a thousand people standing alone, and finally something happened again.


    More than 200 people left and went to the camp of submission. On the contrary, the soldiers who had already moved to the camp of submission. No one moved any more. They were all determined to submit.


    In fact, the great disparity between Zhang Xiu and Liu Zhang is clear at a glance.


    Zhang Xiu fought against Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and beat back the Allied forces of the three families. Even now, Zhang Xiu is the king of Qin with strong troops. In particular, Liu Zhang''s last line of defense, Jianmen pass, fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands.At this time, Liu Zhang was almost unstoppable.


    Although the ordinary soldiers in the army don''t know any tactics, March and array, and have no strategic vision, they understand a simple truth, that is, who is stronger can see through at a glance.


    That''s the soldier''s choice.


    A quarter of an hour later, fewer than 800 people were finally unwilling to surrender.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "since the camp has been clearly distributed, then everything will not change. Where is Zhang


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhang Ren stood up and saluted.


    He has been obedient to Zhang Xiu, in front of all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu shouts, he is to stand up.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "I worship you as general Wuwei and take charge of all the soldiers who have surrendered in yuanyizhou. Its barracks are called "loyal army!"


    Zhongyi army, the name of the army, is a praise to Zhang Ren and also a imprisonment for Zhang Ren. After Zhang Ren led the Zhongyi army, he could only serve Zhang Xiu wholeheartedly.


    After hearing this, Zhang Ren was surprised.


    He has just surrendered to Zhang Xiu. Under normal circumstances, Zhang Xiu should not let him take charge of the army. But now, Zhang Xiu not only ordered him to take charge of the army, but also gave him a name. You know, the main armies under Zhang Xiu''s command all have their own names. Now that he is in charge of the loyal army, he becomes one of the legitimate generals under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhang Renshen took a breath, but he didn''t hesitate. Since he was obedient to Zhang Xiu, he thought he was working for Zhang Xiu, so he lifted up his robe, knelt down on one knee and said, "I will obey you!"


    "The loyal army will live up to the high expectations of the king of Qin."


    "The loyal army is powerful!"


    Zhang Ren exclaimed.


    With Zhang Ren''s order, the rest of the soldiers who had surrendered all knelt down on one knee, and followed Zhang Ren''s call for the strength of the loyal and righteous army. The hearts of the soldiers were very happy.


    They are not only very happy to follow Zhang shunxiu, but also very happy to return.


    Everyone''s heart is very solid.


    On the contrary, there are more than 800 soldiers who are still sticking to it. When these people see this scene, many people have regrets in their hearts. But in this scene, they have no choice but to continue to go down.


    Zhang Xiu and all the other soldiers raised their hands to signal the end of the shouting. Zhang Ren and the soldiers of the loyal army all stood up. At a glance, Zhang Xiu knew that these people did not belong to Liu Zhang, but to Zhang Xiu.


    Not only Zhang Ren!


    It''s because of his respect for all these soldiers.


    Especially Zhang Ren''s temperament, Zhang Xiu is clear, in today''s situation, Zhang Ren will only be determined to serve him.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t speak any more. She arranged for Chen Dao to mobilize dry food and distribute it to 800 soldiers who were unwilling to surrender. Then she ordered them to leave.


    At the end of the adjustment of the army, Zhang Xiu waves her hand and dismisses the army.


    Zhang Ren''s inner emotions are a little complicated.


    Still, he stepped down. Today''s Zhang Ren feels that Zhang Xiu attaches great importance to him. Apart from his relationship with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu formed a separate army, which was based on the former Yizhou army.


    Zhang Ren''s heart is rather complicated. He can''t tell the truth clearly. Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of Zhang Ren, because a lot of things need Zhang Ren to digest slowly.

 Chapter 815

    On the official road.


    Fazheng is still bound. Fortunately, it has entered the early spring, but it is not particularly cold. Especially after the coat was taken off, there was also the inner garment. In winter, once they are taken off their coats, they will freeze to death even if they are not killed.


    Fazheng kept telling the soldiers to try to break the rope.


    As long as one person unties the rope, then everyone here can be saved.


    One by one, the soldiers worked hard.


    They are all struggling.


    Seeing that it was getting dark, Fazheng and his soldiers were thirsty and hungry.


    After all, I didn''t drink water or eat dry food.


    I''m hungry.


    "Work hard, all work hard, we are still at the edge of the forest. In the evening, it''s easy to have beasts. Once we meet a beast, we can''t resist it. I''m afraid we''ll all die here. "


    "Hurry up!"


    "Don''t relax, try to grind."


    Fazheng is constantly opening his mouth and encouraging his soldiers.


    With the encouragement of Fazheng, the soldiers bit their teeth and blushed, trying to dally.


    "Chaka!"


    Suddenly, a soldier''s rope broke.


    "Ha ha, it''s broken. The rope in my hand is broken."


    In the crowd, there was a soldier. The soldier broke the rope and quickly untied the rope on his feet. Then he stood up and moved his muscles twice, with a look of joy.


    Fazheng got excited and said, "come here, come here and untie the rope for me!"


    The soldiers must be ordered to run to Fazheng.


    Fazheng''s handsome face also showed a happy look.


    At last.


    At last the soldiers untied the rope.


    While Fazheng was waiting, all of a sudden, his eyes widened and he looked frightened. He quickly ordered: "squat down, squat down immediately, damn it, that group of people are coming again."


    At this moment, Fazheng was crying in his heart.


    Why is he so unlucky!


    He just volunteered to go to Jianmen pass to help Zhang Ren resist Zhang Xiu''s army. However, on the way, he was suddenly attacked by the enemy, so that he was shot away with food and clothes, tied up and thrown aside.


    Dawdle for a long time, finally, a soldier broke the rope, he saw the chance to leave to escape. But in the twinkling of an eye, we met the army who killed us.


    What bad luck!


    In Fazheng''s eyes, this group of people came directly at them.


    The soldiers who had broken the rope before also found a group of people in Ganning who had been killed. They were nervous on their faces, squatted down quickly, and then hid among the soldiers.


    Gan Ning took people on the road quickly, and in a short time, he was in front of FA Zheng and others. Gan Ning did not ask Fazheng directly, because in case Fazheng was hiding, he would not be able to find Fazheng once he was supported by another person.


    So Gan Ning directly arrested two soldiers and asked them separately for identification.


    It was easy to find out the correct method.


    Gan Ning came to Fazheng, looked at him and said, "I didn''t expect that you are Fazheng. For you, your highness asked me to go in person. Fortunately, you didn''t escape. "


    "Come on, untie the rope!"


    Ganning directly ordered that soldiers immediately came forward and untied Fazheng''s rope.


    Fazheng said in a deep voice, "how do you know I am Fazheng?"


    Gan Ning chuckled and said: "what Zhang Ren said, is there a fake? My king of Qin has broken the Jianmen pass. Zhang Ren and his soldiers have all surrendered. Of course, I have to thank you for escorting food. Without these teams, it''s not so easy for me to get close to Jianmen pass. "


    When Fazheng heard this, he sighed in his heart.


    It''s over!


    It''s over!


    The loss of Jianmen pass means that Liu Zhang can no longer resist Zhang Xiu''s natural danger. In particular, Zhang Ren, such a general, has surrendered to Zhang Xiu, and there is no other general in Yizhou who can really be independent.


    Gan Ning no longer explained, let the soldiers open the rope on the feet of all the prisoners, and then escorted them all the way to the direction of Jianmen pass.


    Along the way,


    met some soldiers who had withdrawn.


    Gan Ning caught people to ask, learned that Zhang Xiu''s arrangements, but also according to the gourd, told all prisoners, willing to leave can leave, he did not stop.


    But none of the prisoners would like to leave because they failed to escort food. Isn''t it right to go back now to seek death?


    Everyone is willing to surrender.


    When Fazheng heard that the retreating soldiers had said Zhang Xiu''s move, he was even more moved.


    This is Zhang Xiu!


    He is skillful in means and tactics.In front of Zhang Xiu, Liu Zhang, even though he was older than Zhang Xiu, was just like a three-year-old child. He had no means at all, and even the local generals in Yizhou could not be subdued.


    If it had not been for Zhang Song and Fazheng''s insistence and Pang Xi and Huang Quan''s persuasion, the whole Yizhou would have been in a mess.


    But now that Zhang Ren is demoted, as soon as the news is spread, the whole city of Chengdu will be in a state of panic, and the capitulationists will quickly breed.


    Fazheng with complex emotions, with Ganning together.


    When we arrived at Jianmen pass, it was already dark.


    Ganning straight with Fazheng, came to the JIANMENGUAN City upstairs, sent people to Zhang Xiu''s room, and then quit. In the room, Zhang Xiu sat at will, looking at Fazheng standing at the bottom, with a smile on her lips, and said, "now I see you again, especially in this case, it''s really a coincidence. Originally, I thought that I would have to wait until the army came to Chengdu before I could see you again. I didn''t expect to see it now. "


    Fazheng was embarrassed.


    He used to be reluctant to submit to Zhang Xiu, just to show his ability in Chengdu and let Zhang Xiu know.


    Unexpectedly, this time I volunteered, but I was caught halfway. Even as a prisoner, I see Zhang Xiu again. Such a situation made Fazheng extremely embarrassed.


    Fazheng bowed and said, "after a few months, Taiwei has become the king of Qin. But I''m really sorry to see the king of Qin as a prisoner. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "whether it''s a prisoner or not, it doesn''t affect my impression of Mr. Wang. If it had not been for Mr. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, Yizhou would have fallen long ago. I admire your talent. "


    Fazheng said: "because of Fazheng''s words, countless soldiers under the command of the king of Qin died in Nanyang County. Did the king of Qin not hate Fazheng, and did not want to kill Fazheng? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "fighting in the battlefield, either you die or I die, which has been the case since ancient times. What is there to bear in mind? In today''s situation, not to mention a drink and a peck, how can I hit Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei again and become the king of Qin in this great Han Dynasty without your plan? "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "before, I said that I would keep the master''s book of Taiwei mansion for you. Now, I still keep the master''s book for you. Fazheng, would you like to serve the king? "


    After hearing this, Fazheng felt no hesitation. He lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee and said, "Fazheng, I''d like to urge your highness. Go through fire and water at all costs. "


    Zhang Xiu got up in person, helped Fazheng up and said, "I have to help Xiaozhi. Yizhou can be settled."

 Chapter 816

    Fazheng shook his head modestly and said, "Your Highness appointed Zhang Ren as the commander of the loyal army, and directly transformed 30000 prisoners into loyal army. This move has already settled the situation in Yizhou. Even if there is no Fazheng, it is easy for your highness to capture Yizhou. But now, Fazheng can write a letter to Zhang song, asking him to change the wind and begin to persuade Liu Zhang to surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu knows Zhang song.


    This is also a talented person.


    Unfortunately, his appearance was so ugly that Zhang Song met Cao Cao in history, but was despised by Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "can filial piety affect Zhang song?"


    "Yes


    FA Zheng said, "I''m a good friend of Zhang song. Zhang song is a talented man. In fact, he looks down on Liu Zhang. But before that, it was his humble position that urged Zhang song to fight to death, so Zhang Song fully supported me, and then we worked together to persuade Liu Zhang. As long as Liu Zhang changed the direction of the wind and Pang Xi and Huang Quan''s generation were included, it would be impossible to fight to the death. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "in that case, I''ll leave it to you."


    "Here it is


    Fazheng bows down.


    After a day''s rest at Jianmen pass, the next morning, Zhang Xiu''s army moved southward. At this time, the royal guards took the first step to send back Fazheng''s letter.


    Zhang Song''s residence, Chengdu.


    During this period of time, Zhang song has gone to great lengths, and even used the strength of his family. All people are around one thing, that is to resist Zhang Xiu.


    But the problem is that the Allied forces of Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were all defeated by Zhang Xiu. Under this premise, Zhang Song thought Liu Zhang could not resist, so he specially found FA Zheng.


    Then, Fazheng volunteered to go north.


    Zhang song did not interfere in Fazheng''s decision.


    He''s not in charge of Fazheng.


    On this day, when Zhang song was in his study, reading and playing, the housekeeper of his family came in and bowed: "my Lord, there''s a man from outside the house who claims to be the messenger of Fazheng. He''s here to ask for a meeting."


    "Please


    Zhang songphen said.


    The housekeeper went to inform him. In a short time, a Black Royal Guard strode in. When he saw Zhang song, he said, "Mr. Zhang, this is a letter from Fazheng."


    With that, he handed over Fazheng''s letter.


    When Zhang Song saw the cover of the letter, he wrote four big words on it - brother Zhang Qinqi!


    This word is very impressive.


    Zhang Song nodded, opened the letter and scanned it quickly. After reading it, he looked shocked. His eyes narrowed, staring at the royal guards in front of him, and said, "are you from the king of Qin?"


    "Yes


    The royal guards answered directly.


    Zhang Song thought in his heart and said, "go back and tell the king of Qin that Zhang song should do his best to do what Fazheng entrusted."


    "Here it is


    The royal guards are ordered to turn around and step down.


    After the royal guards left, Zhang Song looked at the letter again. In this letter, Fazheng explained the loss of JIANMENGUAN and the surrender of Zhang Ren. In addition, Fazheng also mentioned the surrender of his own captives. Finally, Fazheng persuaded Zhang song. Now Liu Zhang can''t keep Chengdu, so he can start persuading Liu Zhang.


    Zhang song took the lamp and burned the letter, thinking in his heart.


    What should he do now?


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the voice of the housekeeper came from outside the study.


    The housekeeper hurried in and reported: "master, just received the news from the prefecture, please go to the prefecture."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Song nodded and answered.


    He immediately put on his official robes, his clothes fluttering, strode out of the residence, boarded the carriage and went to Liu Zhang''s Prefecture. When he came to the prefecture, he strode in and soon entered the hall.


    At this time, Huang Quan, Pang Xi, Wu Yi and others all arrived.


    One by one, they looked solemn.


    Zhang Song bowed his hand and asked after taking his seat: "my Lord, I''m in urgent need, but what happened?"


    Liu Zhang sighed: "Zhang song, I have just received the news from Jianmen pass. Zhang Xiu has broken Jianmen pass, and Zhang Ren leads the people to surrender. Not only that, but also the grain team of Fazheng was taken. Now, Fazheng doesn''t know whether to surrender or how? Now the situation is difficult. What''s your opinion? "


    Zhang Song sneered in his heart.


    Liu Zhang didn''t know about Fazheng. He knew it. Fazheng had surrendered.


    Besides, Fazheng also sent letters.


    Zhang Song didn''t show any emotion on his face. He looked solemn and said solemnly: "Lord, Jianmen pass is the last pass. How could Zhang Xiu suddenly break the Jianmen pass? "


    Liu Zhang said in a deep voice: "it''s said that Zhang Xiu''s army flew into the Jianmen pass, and then broke the Jianmen pass in response to internal and external cooperation. Now, no matter how to break the Jianmen pass, in fact, the Jianmen pass has fallen. What we need to do now is to consider what to do. I''m afraid it''s quite dangerous for us to kill Zhang Xiu''s army. "Zhang Song looked around and said, "my Lord, what''s your opinion?"


    "I suggest surrender," Pang said


    Although Pang Xi was in charge of military power, his troops are not many now.


    Pang Xi said in a deep voice: "before, Zhang Xiu had defeated Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Since then, Zhang Xiu became the king of Qin. All over the world, they all called themselves kings and emperors. Only the LORD kept a low profile. It was for the sake of hope that Zhang Xiu did not attack Yizhou. But now, Zhang Xiu is still here. In this case, especially the Jianmen pass was lost, and there was no fortification against Zhang Xiu. More importantly, Liu Ruo and Ling Bao were defeated before, which damaged the army. Now that Zhang Ren has surrendered, tens of thousands of troops have disappeared. Although we still have some troops in Chengdu, we can''t stop Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Zhang sighed when he heard it.


    He felt helpless.


    Because under the current situation, Liu Zhang could not come up with a solution for a while. He wants to ask for help, but in the world, who can help him? He wanted to fight, but he didn''t have the power to fight.


    Huang Quan said: "in today''s situation, humble position also suggests surrender. In the end, on the one hand, it will consume countless troops, on the other hand, it will make Zhang Xiu angry. When the Lord is defeated, I''m afraid he will be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu. "


    Wu Yi also said: "I also agree to surrender!"


    None of the people under Liu Zhang agreed to go to war. All agreed to surrender.


    Such a scene made Liu Zhang helpless.


    What can he do if all the officials want to surrender?


    Liu Zhang looked at Zhang Song and said solemnly, "Zhang song, what do you mean?"


    Zhang song was very happy. When everyone mentioned surrender, he suggested that Liu Zhang surrender according to Fazheng''s suggestion. That''s pushing the boat with the current.


    Zhang Song said directly: "my Lord, no matter many officials or soldiers in the army, they have lost the spirit of the first World War. So in the current situation, we have to lower the price. Otherwise, there is only one way to die. "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Zhang sighed again.


    He slumped down on the ground with a helpless look.


    In his heart, he was unwilling to surrender. But in the current situation, he can''t help but stick to it, because there is no force for the first World War, let alone an army to fight.


    "That''s all. Let''s go!"


    Liu Zhang gritted his teeth and finally made a decision.


    "My Lord is wise!"


    All of them were relieved that Liu Zhang chose to surrender.

 Chapter 817

    With a solemn look on his face, Liu Zhang waved his hand and said, "step back!"


    They stood up and went out.


    At this time, Liu Zhang suddenly said: "Zhang Song stay!"


    After hearing this, Zhang song was surprised. He immediately turned to stop and went back to the hall. Pang Xi, Huang Quan and others had some accidents, but they didn''t stay much. Anyway, Liu Zhang decided to surrender. Under the current situation, surrender is also a good choice. No matter Liu Zhang or themselves, they can all keep it.


    After the crowd left, Zhang Song arched his hand and said, "my Lord, I don''t know what I''m going to tell you."


    Liu Zhang leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, and said in a deep voice: "before, in the face of Zhang Xiu''s army''s killing, only Mr. FA Zhenghe was able to support the official''s death battle. Huang Quan and Pang Xizhi''s flow are now swaying in their hearts, which is not enough to be believed. Therefore, I promised them to surrender and let them arrange for it. But I''m not willing to surrender, sir. Is there a plan for me? "


    Zhang Song looked up, a little surprised.


    Liu Zhang has the courage.


    I want to fight to the death.


    Liu Zhang took a look at Zhang Song and said with a smile, "I know that it must be an accident. Why should I resist. In this world, there are countless people who call themselves kings and emperors. Only my own officials dare not call themselves kings. "


    "The reason is very simple. I don''t have enough troops to control the whole situation."


    "Even though the military power is mainly in the hands of Pang Xi and others, now without Zhang Ren, I have no control. Under such circumstances, if I insist, maybe I will be killed. "


    Liu Zhang inquired: "Sir, do you have any strategies to teach me?"


    Zhang song is still an accident.


    Is this the timid and cowardly Liu Zhang who doesn''t care much about politics?


    All of a sudden, it''s like a different person.


    Zhang Song''s heart is sneer, it''s time, even he and Fazheng contact, ready to let Liu Zhang surrender, but Liu Zhang at this time, even want to resist.


    It''s just wishful thinking.


    Zhang Song thought rotation, way: "Lord want to compete with Zhang Xiu, don''t know, can have what preparation?"


    Liu Zhang said in a deep voice, "I have 300 dead men, which can be used."


    "Ah


    Hearing this, Zhang Song pretended to be surprised and said, "Lord, there are too few 300 dead men. Even if it''s 3000 dead men, they can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack in the face of Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Liu Zhang said: "Sir, you are very resourceful. Can''t you help me and help me die? As long as we resist this attack of Zhang Xiu, I can be called king or even emperor. At that time, my husband will be an important Minister of our country. "


    Zhang Song heard this suddenly.


    He understood.


    Liu Zhang, who has always been timid, was lured by the interests, or in other words, he was dazzled by the interests. Liu Zhang, a former Yizhou herdsman, had no influence.


    But now, Cao Cao is king, Yuan Shao is emperor, and the rest are all kings. The State animal husbandry in the world is constantly rising, but he is very nervous in Yizhou.


    So Liu Zhang had wild hope in his heart.


    With wild hope, he had an idea in his heart.


    Not willing to surrender!


    I don''t want to be a prisoner.


    After Zhang Song''s mind turned, he suddenly got a plan. However, he said again, "Lord, there are only 300 dead men under your command. Is there no one else?"


    "No!"


    Liu Zhang shook his head and replied, "if there are more soldiers, it will be convenient for action. But now, there''s no way. "


    Zhang Song said: "there is a plan for humble position."


    Liu Zhang said, "speak quickly, sir."


    Zhang Song said in a deep voice: "if the Lord wants to deal with Zhang Xiu, he must die and die. Especially the Lord just now, has promised everyone, to submit to Zhang Xiu. So now, we can only follow this plan. There are three hundred dead men under the Lord''s command, so we should take these three hundred dead men as a breakthrough. "


    Liu Zhang can''t wait to ask: "how to break through?"


    Zhang Song said: "when Zhang Xiu''s army arrives in Chengdu, the Lord himself takes his civil servants and military generals to the gate of the city to welcome Zhang Xiu."


    "At that time, let three hundred dead men be among the officials under your command."


    "When you offer the seal ribbon, immediately send the dead man to assassinate Zhang Xiu. As the saying goes, "if the thief catches the king first, as long as he kills Zhang Xiu, then the army under Zhang Xiu''s command will be leaderless, and the Lord will not be afraid of Zhang Xiu''s army."


    Zhang Song said: "even when the Lord returns to the city and guards, Zhang Xiu''s army will disperse."


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes as he put forward his suggestion.


    There are many flaws in this plan.


    However, it depends on whether Liu Zhang adopts it or not. Anyway, as long as Liu Zhang believes it, that''s enough.


    Liu Zhang blinked and said, "if you killed Zhang Xiu, shouldn''t you take advantage of the victory to pursue her?"


    Zhang Song''s mouth slightly twitched and shook his head: "Lord, Zhang Xiu''s army is very effective. After we kill Zhang Xiu, if you don''t return to Chengdu, what if the chief General of Zhang Xiu drives the army to attack under the banner of revenge for Zhang Xiu? "After a pause, Zhang Song continued: "the only way is to return to Chengdu and resist with the help of high walls. After the collapse of their morale, we will win naturally. The threat of Zhang Xiu''s army will not be defeated. "


    "Wonderful


    Liu Zhang was glad to hear that.


    He got up from the seat and danced with joy.


    Such Liu Zhang made Zhang Song shake his head in his heart.


    How is it possible to assassinate Zhang Xiu? Not to mention that he intended to submit to Zhang Xiu, he would inform her, especially her martial arts. According to the news from the battle of Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu fought against Lv Bu with her own strength.


    Can such a person be assassinated?


    Zhang song can''t say these words.


    After Liu Zhang was happy, he said, "Sir, this time, the life and death of Yizhou are all in your hands. After the success of this war, I became emperor, and I worshipped you as prime minister to deal with the government affairs. "


    "Thank you


    Zhang song is also a man of great importance.


    His address to Liu Zhang changed immediately. Instead, he used his Majesty''s name. After all, Liu Zhang said he wanted to be emperor.


    Liu Zhang said in a deep voice, "Zhang Qing, all the 300 dead men are in my house. Now, get busy and deal with things. When Zhang Xiu arrives, he will be killed and killed. "


    "Here it is


    Instead of staying, Zhang Song turned and stepped back.


    When he walked out, he saw Huang Quan, Wu Yi, and Pang Xi outside the prefecture. None of them left. They all looked at Zhang song. Pang Xi''s qualification is relatively old, he said in a deep voice: "ziqiao, the LORD left you alone, what do you say?"


    Zhang Song said with a smile: "in the Lord''s heart, there are still some pimples. He said that he was reluctant to surrender and become a prisoner. No way, I can only follow the persuasion. After all, in the current situation, everything is clear. If the Lord insists on the first World War, he will not be able to keep it


    Pang Xi stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "well done, if the Lord wants to fight Zhang Xiu now, it will be useless except for wasting manpower and material resources and letting countless soldiers die."


    Huang Quan sighed: "if we can resist it, we will suggest the Lord to resist it. But in today''s situation, it can''t be stopped at all. Well, it''s nothing to do


    Wu Yi said: "yes, under the current situation, it''s impossible to resist. Brother ziqiao, you did a good job


    Zhang Song said, "you are wrong."


    Pang Xi said in a deep voice, "let''s go to the official''s house. I''ll give you a banquet. "


    One by one, I agree.


    Zhang song did not refuse, and went directly to pangxi''s house for dinner. After a banquet, it was late at night. After Zhang Song returned to his house, he drank the wine soup. When he regained consciousness, he wrote a letter, which was immediately sent to Zhang Xiu for reading.

 Chapter 818

    The army led by Zhang Xiu arrived in Zitong County after going south from Jianmen pass.


    The magistrate of Zitong County resisted for a while, but in front of Zhang Xiu''s nearly 100000 troops, it was just like a mole ant, and there was no possibility to resist.


    After Zhang Xiu captured Zitong County, she left a few soldiers behind and continued to go south.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army came near Fu County, news came from Chengdu that Liu Zhang had decided to surrender instead of resisting. Therefore, the officials of Fu County directly opened the city gate and surrendered.


    Zhang Xiu was not surprised by the news of Liu Zhang''s surrender.


    Just as the army had just left Fu County and headed south for Mianzhu, the family spies sent by Zhang song had come to the front of Zhang Xiu''s army and asked to see her. After seeing Zhang Xiu, the detective handed the letter and stood aside.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and scanned it quickly.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Song''s letter, she mentioned that Liu Zhang was pretending to surrender and was ready to surrender. She dispatched 300 dead men to attack and assassinate Zhang Xiu, and she immediately laughed.


    In Zhang Song''s letter, Yiying recorded all the information, and even speculated why Liu Zhang did it. In addition, Zhang song also gave Zhang Xiu advice at the end of the letter.


    Take this opportunity to kill Liu Zhang.


    Then, he told Pang Xi''s great power once again, and suggested that Zhang Xiu take advantage of the situation to kill Pang Xi, eradicate the Pang family, and destroy Pang Xi''s strength, so that Yizhou can be pacified. Otherwise, if Pang Xi is left behind, he will be left behind.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to call Fazheng, handed the letter to Fazheng, and said: "Xiaozhi, when Zhang Song suggested that the king should kill Liu Zhang, he should be executed with pangxi."


    After reading the letter, Fazheng thought about it in his heart.


    A moment later, Fazheng said, "it''s a good thing that Zhang song is willing to submit to the Lord. As for Zhang Song''s mention of the destruction of the Pang family, I agree with him. "


    "Pang Xi was an old man who entered Yizhou with Liu Yan in his early days."


    "After Liu Yan died of illness, Liu Zhang lacked the means to control pangxi. In particular, Pang Xi himself was good at nurturing scholars, so he recruited countless disciples, and his troops were more and more. "


    "Today''s pangxi is a hidden danger."


    FA Zheng said: "so I suggest killing Pang Xi. However, I have a suggestion on Zhang Song''s arrangement. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    FA Zheng said in a deep voice: "Zhang song is a very talented person. He can read at a glance and never forget. He is a very capable person. Although Zhang song is short and ugly, there is no doubt about his ability. "


    "Besides, Zhang''s family is very famous in Yizhou."


    "Zhangjia has great influence in Chengdu and even in Yizhou. So the humble suggestion is that the Lord should reuse Zhang song, and he should not stay in Yizhou. "


    Fazheng said: "after all, Yizhou is where Zhangjia is. With Zhang Song in it, Zhangjia''s strength is irresistible."


    "If Zhang song takes office in Chang''an, these problems will have no impact. The Lord transferred Zhang song, not only for Zhang Song''s good, but also for Zhang Jia''s good. "


    "Only in this way can Zhang song always be loyal to the Lord."


    "Once Zhang Song stays in Chengdu, he may cover up Zhang''s family because of his family''s affection. At that time, the Lord is forced to deal with Zhang song, which will affect his reputation."


    Fazheng put forward his own suggestions.


    It is precisely because he and Zhang Song are good friends that they put forward such a proposal.


    Zhang Xiu said: "filial piety straight eyesight, can prevent, have foresight."


    FA Zhengdao said, "Lord, you are wrong and praise me!"


    Zhang Xiu and Fazheng agreed on the next plan and continued to go south.


    After arriving in Mianzhu, the army took control of Mianzhu, and then went to Xindu. As long as you pass the new capital, it''s not far from Chengdu. In particular, this area has gradually become flat and no longer hilly.


    The army is moving faster and faster.


    By the end of April, the army led by Zhang Xiu had entered Chengdu.


    At this time, all the people in Yizhou knew about Liu Zhang''s surrender to Zhang Xiu. In fact, the common people didn''t have much resistance to Zhang Xiu. The reason is that Zhang Xiu released the prisoners three times and didn''t kill any of them.


    It was in Baishui County that he released Zhang Ren and his soldiers for the first time.


    The second time the prisoners were released was at jiamengguan, where all the soldiers led by Liu Ruo and Ling Bao were released.


    For the third time, the prisoners were released in the Jianmen pass, who were unwilling to surrender.


    Three times, countless soldiers spread the news of Zhang xiurende. With this coat of benevolence and Zhang Xiu''s strength, Zhang Xiu is extremely powerful. So along the way, some people welcome Zhang Xiu''s army.


    This scene makes Zhang Xiu happy.


    It''s good to release the prisoners.


    At this time, it shows the advantages, and will not be resisted by the local people in Yizhou.In early May, Zhang Xiu''s army was close to Chengdu. When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Chengdu, the news came back that Liu Zhang was dressed in an official robe, with his seal ribbon, civil servants and military generals, and a group of people were all waiting at the gate of the city.


    Liu Zhang made a gesture of surrender.


    He personally opened the gate to meet Zhang Xiu at the gate, and then handed over the seal ribbon, which had already given Zhang Xiu enough face.


    But it''s just the appearance.


    The 300 dead men under Liu Zhang''s command were already among the civilian and military generals around him. At this time, Liu Zhang looked at Zhang song, lowered his voice, and said, "Sir, I depend on you."


    Zhang Song nodded.


    His heart is sneer, because Zhang Xiu has written back, let him according to Liu Zhang''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu has her own decision.


    Time goes by.


    Liu Zhang, Zhang song, Pang Xi and others waited for about half an hour, only to see that on the official road in the distance, suddenly there were countless smoke and dust flying, followed by the roaring sound.


    Boom!!


    The horse''s hooves vibrated and the cavalry marched on.


    At the front, the cavalry of the fierce tiger army and Langya camp, one on the left and one on the right, galloped endlessly and stopped a hundred Zhang away from the north gate of Chengdu. The horses hissed and the soldiers were fighting with high morale and sharp murderous spirit.


    After the cavalry formation, the black infantry came.


    One by one, the infantry stood up with shields and swords, and they were very fierce.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is extremely turbulent.


    Even if this army did not attack, even if this army did not shout. But the army just stood outside the city, all of them were majestic and frightening, as if to make people feel suffocated.


    Gudong!


    Liu Zhang saw Zhang Xiu''s army and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    At this moment, Liu Zhang secretly told Zhang song that he would return to the city after killing Zhang Xiu in the face of Zhang Xiu''s army. Now it seems that if he killed Zhang Xiu and did not return to the city, he would be killed by Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Liu Zhang''s hand unconsciously clenched into a fist, and his face was a little nervous.


    The time has come.


    Whether we can assassinate Zhang Xiu depends on this time.


    Not long after, Zhang Ren''s loyal army arrived and formed a neat array.


    When Liu Zhang saw Zhang Ren, his eyes were full of anger. In the end, Zhang Ren betrayed him and turned to Zhang Xiu. It''s really hateful.


    This made Liu Zhang very disappointed.


    Then Zhang Xiu, FA Zheng, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others came to the front of the army.


    Fazheng follows Zhang Xiu and lowers his voice. He talks about Zhang Song and pangxi, and also mentions Wu Yi and Huang Quan, who are the main personnel under Liu Zhang''s command.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and nodded, taking the infantry forward slowly.


    When she came 50 steps outside the city, Zhang Xiu waved her hand to stop the army under her command, and Zhang Xiu went 15 steps forward, less than 10 steps away from Liu Zhang and his party.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu did not move forward.


    Liu Zhang felt sorry in his eyes. If Zhang Xiu took a few steps further, his dead men would be more steady if they wanted to kill Zhang Xiu. After all, all the dead men under his command were brave and fearless.

 Chapter 819

    Liu Zhang took a deep breath, stretched out his hand, took the box containing the seal ribbon from the soldiers, and then walked out. When he walked slowly, he walked forward. When he walked three steps forward, suddenly, people in various colors came out behind him, all carrying swords, and went to the direction where Zhang Xiu was.


    "Kill


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    One by one, the dead keep moving forward.


    The numerous dead rushed out, and in a twinkling of an eye, they passed Liu Zhang and went straight to Zhang Xiu. Especially in the current situation, the distance between them and Zhang Xiu is only a few steps away. When they sprint forward, it can be reached in a twinkling of an eye.


    At this time, after Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and Shi a immediately came out.


    After the three men were killed, another army came forward.


    "What''s the matter?"


    Pang Xi and others were shocked.


    Huang Quan and Wu Yi were also surprised.


    No one thought that Liu Zhang had decided to surrender, but at this time, he arranged for an assassin to come forward. In particular, the plot of the assassination is so bad. Even if we want to assassinate Zhang Xiu, it is not too late to assassinate Zhang Xiu after she enters Chengdu. Now such an assassination is tantamount to seeking death.


    It''s of no use at all.


    But Liu Zhang also used it.


    At this time, Liu Zhang was already retreating, with a look of expectation in his eyes.


    Win!


    We must win!


    If Zhang Xiu can''t be killed, he will be completely late.


    It''s up to you to win or lose!


    When the assassin was about to approach Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu didn''t make a move. Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and Shi a had already killed him. They killed him directly. Three men and three swords passed by him, and he was defeated.


    In particular, the three men took the life of a dead man with each sword.


    Zhang Xiu took the overlord''s gun in the hands of the soldiers who came up from behind, patted the horse''s back, and rushed forward with the overlord''s gun.


    Zhang Xiu at this moment is like an arrow away from the string.


    In the twinkling of an eye, he had rushed out of the protection of Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and Shi a, and killed in front of him. The overlord gun in his hand swung and swept, the big gun swept out, hit the dead man''s chest, only to hear the click sound.


    The dead man flew straight out, his chest ribs were broken, his internal organs were broken, and he died of vomiting blood after falling to the ground.


    No one can stop it.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu drinks low, he is like entering the realm of no one in general, quickly straight to Liu Zhang.


    At this moment, Liu Zhang''s eyes widened, and he was extremely thrilled.


    How is that possible?


    How can Zhang Xiu dare to rush alone? He shouts out to the dead under his command and constantly makes them come forward with the intention of killing Zhang Xiu. However, those who rush forward are constantly killed by Zhang Xiu.


    "Run away!"


    Liu Zhang saw that Zhang Xiu was coming. He didn''t dare to delay any longer. He turned around and was ready to run away.


    But his speed is one step slower after all.


    He just ran forward two steps, Zhang Xiu has been chasing up, Overlord gun a lift, fast forward stab. The sharp point of the gun turned into a streamer. In a twinkling of an eye, it was behind Liu Zhang.


    "Puchi!"


    The point of the gun directly penetrated into Liu Zhang''s back. Under the impact of the great force, it easily pierced his back and came out of Liu Zhang''s chest.


    Poof!


    The red blood splashed out at once.


    Zhang Xiu hands power, the overlord gun up, hanging Liu Zhang in the air. At this moment, Liu Zhang was in great pain. He still had a trace of consciousness and kept waving his body. But with the flow of blood, especially when his heart was punctured, he had already dropped his head after two convulsions.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand is working again.


    As soon as the overlord''s gun was thrown, Liu Zhang''s body had already been thrown out.


    After Zhang Xiu killed Liu Zhang, she didn''t take care of Liu Zhang''s body. She took a gun to kill him again, but when he killed him, she approached pangxi''s position intentionally or unintentionally.


    When the distance from Pang Xi was less than four feet, the Bawang gun suddenly turned in the direction and directly stabbed out.


    At this moment, Pang Xi''s eyes widened.


    He subconsciously wanted to escape, but when he just made the action, the tip of the gun had reached his chest, and a puff went through Pang Xi''s heart.


    As the overlord''s gun was drawn out and the blood splashed down, Pang Xi covered his chest and shook his body. His mouth was overflowing with blood, and his face was still full of doubts.


    Why?


    Why kill him.


    No one dares to act rashly when Zhang Xiu leads the soldiers. Zhang song, Huang Quan and others all stand still.


    Everyone is afraid to run.


    But instead of killing anyone, Zhang Xiu killed Pang Xi.


    Plop!


    Pang Xi''s body fell to the ground, and at this time, Zhang Xiu was no longer killing, but yelled: "I only kill the first evil, not the innocent. Those who come down will not be killed, otherwise, there will be no amnesty for killing! "One by one, the dead are still fighting.


    However, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and other soldiers joined hands to encircle and suppress the dead, causing more and more casualties.


    Huang Quan was beside Zhang song. He turned his eyes and said, "Zhang ziqiao, my lord dismissed us and left you alone. At that time, I''m afraid it was not what you said that dissuaded the Lord. "


    "It''s the Lord who has discussed with you and decided to assassinate Zhang Xiu today."


    "But the problem is, with Zhang ziqiao''s wisdom, you will never set up such a flawed scheme. Because want to assassinate Zhang Xiu, take assassin to come out at the gate of the city, the means is simply too rotten, simply do not work


    "It''s death seeking, so to speak."


    Huang Quan said: "the only possibility is that Zhang ziqiao is ready to frame the Lord in advance. Even after Fazheng surrendered to Zhang Xiu, you also had the idea of surrendering. "


    "So, you deliberately give the Lord such a bad idea, let the Lord seek death."


    "As for Pang Xi''s death, you and he have always been in discord. In addition, Pang Xi was in great trouble, so I suggest you let the king of Qin kill Pang Xi."


    "Otherwise, the king of Qin could not kill pangxi so accurately without killing the rest of the people, right?"


    Huang Quan''s eyes are burning, staring at Zhang song.


    Zhang Song stroked his beard and said, "it''s worthy of Huang Quan. What''s the matter? Do you have any opinions on my plan?"


    Huang Quan shook his head and said, "I don''t have any opinions. I can only say that this is the Lord''s own death. If the king of Qin''s army went south, he would not be killed if he didn''t resist and didn''t want to resist. "


    After a pause, Huang Quan said: "because he wanted to fight, he was killed and won your calculation. It is said that the Lord can''t even tell such a plot clearly, and he thinks foolishly that such a plot is an opportunity to assassinate the king of Qin. "


    Zhang Songyan said: "you''re right. If Liu Zhang doesn''t have the mind to deal with the king of Qin, as you said, if he surrenders directly, everything will be natural. He won''t die. At most, he will be a cage bird."


    At this point, Zhang Song shrugged his shoulders and said, "when Liu Zhang saw that all the princes in the world were king or emperor, he was not willing to surrender and wanted to fight to the death. Under such a premise, what can I do? Under this premise, I can only give him a way to die. As for Pang Xi, he has risks when he is alive and can''t stay. "


    Huang Quan sighed and said nothing more.


    After a short time, all the dead men under Liu Zhang were killed.


    With the corpses lying on the ground and Zhang Xiu''s big sleeves brushing, Gan Ning leads the fierce tiger soldiers into the city quickly to control the four gates of Chengdu. In addition, youfazheng took a group of soldiers into the city and went straight to the Pang family. He wanted to solve the Pang family thoroughly before the Pang family was in turmoil.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu led the army into the city.

 Chapter 820

    The army entered the city and went to the prefecture.


    After Liu Zhang was killed, Liu Zhang''s lineage in Zhou Mu Fu were slaughtered, leaving no hidden danger. And the rest of the people, the severance of the severance, the treatment of the treatment, Zhang Xiu''s people took over the whole Prefecture.


    In the hall, Zhang Xiu took a seat.


    Zhang song, Huang Quan, Wu Yi and others were all seated.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "Liu Zhang was killed, and Yizhou animal husbandry is temporarily short of time and space. Now, we have to perform our own duties for the time being


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhang Song and continued: "this time, Zhang song has made great contribution to capture Chengdu. Zhang song, do you want to worship you for the service of King Qin''s mansion? "


    "I''m willing to be humble!"


    Zhang Song responded without hesitation.


    For him, it''s his chance to follow Zhang Xiu and serve as a meritorious official.


    Zhang Xiu also warned Huang Quan, Wu Yi and others what they should pay attention to, and then sent them away. Soon after, Fazheng came back in a hurry.


    When he came into the hall and saw Zhang Xiu, he said, "the king of Qin, pangxi''s lineage, has been put to death. Because of many people''s resistance, pangxi''s disciples were all killed. Now the Pang family has been taken. In Pang Xi''s house, countless land titles, money and grain were found. The humble officials had arranged for people to count them, and then sent them to the army for safekeeping. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "well done!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "now that she has won Chengdu, she will capture Shu county and Guanghan County for the time being and stabilize the areas she has captured. In addition to the arrangement of other people, 800 Li urgent sent letters to Bajun, ordered Bajun Zhao Wei to surrender. No matter whether Zhao Wei surrendered or not, we will send troops to Bajun one month later. Fazheng, you are in charge of arranging a letter to Zhao Wei to see how Zhao Wei responds. "


    "Here it is


    The law is directly responding to the law.


    In fact, Fazheng didn''t pay much attention to Zhao Wei.


    Zhao Wei''s strength is not very strong.


    In history, Zhao Wei fled to Jiangzhou County, Bajun County, and was soon exterminated by Pang Xi.


    But now, because Zhang Xiu attacked Liu Zhang, pangxi could not go at all, and Zhao Wei had been in Bajun. As the gateway to the east of Yizhou, Bajun''s geographical position is very important. Zhang Xiu was the first to deal with Bajun, and Fazheng agreed.


    Fazheng got up and stepped down to arrange things, while Zhang Xiu stayed in Chengdu for the time being. At the same time, Gan Ning and Chen Dao did not stay. They each sent out troops and began to prepare to sweep the rest of the place.


    It''s easy for Zhang Xiu to stay in the city.


    On this day, Wang Yue handed the latest news to Zhang Xiu. After looking through it, Zhang Xiu was surprised to see the management of wuximan.


    Guoyuan is located in wuximan. Now it has successfully built the city, and more and more wuximen people have come out of the mountain and started to live in the city of wuximen.


    One by one, the people of wuximan have learned how to cultivate. They can work at sunrise and rest at sunset. They can eat well and wear warm clothes. They are no longer living a turbulent life.


    Xu Shu''s suggestion to Zhang Xiu is to prepare to transfer Guoyuan back to Chang''an and let Guoyuan take office in Chang''an.


    But Zhang Xiu has to agree.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu didn''t agree to transfer Guoyuan back to Chang''an and wrote two letters directly.


    One of the letters was a reply to Xu Shu. Instead of sending Guoyuan back to Chang''an, Guoyuan was appointed as governor of Yizhou, responsible for running Yizhou, supervising Yizhou and inspecting Yizhou counties.


    Another letter is to ask Wang Yue to arrange the royal guards and send it directly to Guoyuan. He asked Guoyuan to hand over the affairs of wuximan, and then he went directly to Jingzhou to come to Yizhou to handle the affairs of Yizhou.


    After the two letters were sent out, Zhang Xiu was relieved again.


    Yizhou let Guoyuan in charge, he is at ease.


    After all, Guoyuan has the ability.


    When Zhang Xiu was in Chengdu, it was Zhang Song who came to Wu Yi''s house on this day.


    Today, Wu Yi says that her official position remains unchanged. In fact, she has nothing to do.


    After all, the new assassin didn''t come.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu is also in Chengdu.


    Now, Zhang song is a meritorious official in the palace of King Qin. So when Wu Yi saw Zhang song, she was quite respectful. After both sides took their seats, she said with a straight face, "brother ziqiao, I don''t know what''s important when he comes to visit us."


    Zhang Song said: "my dear brother, this time I come here, I really have some things for the future of our whole Yizhou system officials. Although you are not from Yizhou and Fazheng is not from Yizhou, you, me, Fazheng and Huang Quan are all people who once worked for Liu Zhang. It''s not too much to say that they are from Yizhou system. What do you think? "


    "Yes


    Wu Yi nodded and answered.


    Zhang Song continued: "now we in the Yizhou system, I am the official of Lord Qin''s mansion, and Xiaozhi is the chief of Lord Qin''s mansion. It seems to be an important position, but in fact, it is far from enough and the foundation is very weak. We officials of the Yizhou system, do you think we should unite so that we can keep watch and help each other? "Wu Yi was a little confused at this time.


    What''s going on here?


    Wu Yi thought for a while and said, "brother ziqiao, what''s the matter, just say it. I feel a little dizzy when you say one thing at a time. "


    Zhang Song laughs and says: "if you all say that, then I won''t beat around the bush. I heard that Wu amaranth, the younger sister of my younger brother, had been widowed since Liu Mao died a few years ago. "


    "Your younger sister is in her twenties and twenties, and she is very beautiful."


    "Now the king of Qin is in Yizhou, and everyone around him takes care of him. No one cares. I mean, a good brother can marry his sister to the king of Qin as his concubine. "


    "Now it''s the concubine of the king of Qin. If the king of Qin dominates the world, you should know what a glory it is."


    In Zhang Song''s words, there is more bewitching.


    Wu Yi said in a deep voice: "brother ziqiao, this is the meaning of the king of Qin. I specially arranged for you to inform me?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Song shook his head and said, "if the king of Qin had this idea, someone would have come to you. in fact. The king of Qin did not inform me, nor did he inform me. "


    "That''s what I just mentioned."


    "Our Yizhou system has no solid backing, and its strength is still too scattered. That''s why I found my younger brother. I hope he can marry his younger sister to the king of Qin. "


    "Of course, it must be done by a good brother. I''ll arrange it."


    After a pause, Zhang Song continued: "it''s only on my whim that I mentioned it. Good brother, success or failure has no influence. "


    "I just thought that all the people in Liu Yan''s family were killed in your sister''s widowed home. Especially after Liu Mao''s death for so many years, why should he be widowed? "


    "What''s more, even though he is now in Yizhou, according to the custom of the king of Qin, he may no longer set up a state animal husbandry. How can you get along with yourself then? "


    Zhang song looks good for Wu Yi.


    Wu Yi''s face was slightly loose.


    As the saying goes, parents'' orders and matchmaker''s words.


    Now Wu Yi''s sister, Wu''s family, lives in a widowed home. As a elder brother, Wu Yi is like a father. He can arrange Wu''s marriage. But he thought about it and said, "brother ziqiao, can I think about it? I''ll give you a reply after I ask my younger sister''s opinion."


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Song couldn''t wait to say, "you''re such a mother''s man. How can you be such a mother''s man when you handle things. If I have a suitable sister by my side, I will go directly to the king of Qin. "


    "There are only a few women around the king of Qin."


    "In this case, it''s your sister''s chance, it''s your chance, it''s our Yizhou generals'' chance. You miss it now, but you don''t have it. "


    Zhang Song said: "today, the army of the king of Qin is sweeping all parts of Yizhou, so the king of Qin is staying in Chengdu. Otherwise, the king of Qin would have left long ago. "


    After hearing this, Wu Yi gritted her teeth and solemnly said, "OK, I promise for my little sister. When the younger sister marries the king of Qin, he gives it to brother ziqiao. If it''s done, I''m sure I''ll be very grateful. "


    Zhang Song said: "it''s not necessary to thank you again. If you can remember Zhang Song''s good deeds today, that''s enough."


    The purpose of his plan is to unite the officials of the whole Yizhou system. In this way, even if they are just obedient to Zhang Xiu, then their strength is not weak.


    Especially after Wu became Zhang Xiu''s woman, the situation was even more different.


    This is Zhang Song''s intention.

 Chapter 821

    When Zhang Song saw that Wu Yi agreed, he was relieved, so he stopped hiding and said, "dear brother, in that case, I''ll go to see the king of Qin and invite him to dinner. At that time, let the little sister sing and dance a song, so, will be able to move the king of Qin. And I will persuade the king of Qin. What you''re going to do now is talk to your little sister. Now, I will go to see the king of Qin immediately. "


    "No problem!"


    Wu Yi nodded and answered.


    Now that he has promised Zhang song, he has nothing to hesitate about.


    Zhang Song immediately stood up and said, "I''m going to meet the king of Qin. I''ll come here today or another day. I''ll let you know immediately after King Qin''s decision. However, I will say that you invited the king of Qin to the banquet tomorrow. The best result is to have a dinner tomorrow morning. "


    Wu Yi said, "thank you very much, brother ziqiao."


    "You''re welcome!"


    After Zhang Song said something, he turned and left.


    Wu Yi sat alone in the hall, her face slightly changed. After thinking for a long time, he finally gritted his teeth and got up to go back to the courtyard where his younger sister Wu lived.


    Wu''s present age, at 22, is the age of mature flowering. As early as a few years ago, when Liu Mao died, Wu went back to live in her family. She was cared by her elder brother and mother, and her life was not bad.


    The 22-year-old Wu''s skin is white, just like the white jade of lanolin, and she is delicate and exquisite, with the soft beauty of southerners.


    But there always seemed to be a touch of sadness on her face.


    Can''t go away!


    It''s endless!


    Give people the general feeling of sick Xi Shi, people can''t help but want to love.


    Wu, sitting in the yard, is working as a female worker. She has nothing to do in her family. Most of the time, she is a female worker. She is especially good at making Sichuan brocade. She is very good at weaving and embroidery.


    After Wu Yi entered, Wu found out and said, "brother, I seldom come to my yard. Now I come here, but what''s the matter?"


    Wu Yi sat down and said with a smile, "little sister, all the children of Liu Yan''s family have died. Before that, you married Liu Mao. Because of Liu Zhang''s presence, even if Liu Zhang died, you can''t remarry and live at home all the time. Now that Liu Zhang is dead, no one dares to comment on your marriage. So today, Zhang song has come as a matchmaker. "


    In the Eastern Han Dynasty, remarriage was very normal, not unusual.


    However, Wu''s identity is more special.


    She was the wife of Liu Mao, the third brother of Liu Zhang. As a herdsman in Yizhou, Liu Zhang could not allow Wu to remarry. But now that Liu Zhang is dead, no one dares to say anything.


    Wu looked indifferent and said, "brother, who are you going to betroth me to?"


    Wu Yi said: "Zhang song came to pull the strings and said that he hoped you could marry the king of Qin and be the woman of the king of Qin."


    Wu''s hands were busy with stitches. At this time, he stopped. After thinking for a while, she finally nodded and said, "everything depends on the elder brother''s arrangement, but the younger sister has no opinion."


    Wu Yi is in charge of the affairs of the Wu family.


    Wu''s marriage can''t be decided by himself, not to mention he doesn''t know anyone.


    Wu Yi was relieved when she heard Zhang Xiu''s words. He immediately said, "Zhang Song said earlier that he went to the palace of King Qin and invited the king of Qin to the banquet. At that time, my little sister only needs to sing and dance for the king of Qin


    "Good!"


    The Wu family should still go down.


    From the beginning to the end, Wu''s attitude was so indifferent.


    Seeing this, Wu Yi suddenly felt guilty and said, "little sister, don''t you blame big brother?"


    Wu zhengse way: "I blame elder brother to do what, Liu Zhang no longer, elder brother will certainly betroth me to others.". It''s the same who you marry, isn''t it? What''s more, it''s not bad to marry the most powerful person in the world. "


    Wu Yi knows her younger sister''s temperament. She is a person who has nothing to do with the world. She is so quiet and has no mind. Since Wu said so, Wu Yi was relieved and said, "you''re busy. Brother, let''s go first."


    With that, Wu Yi got up and left.


    After Wu Yi left, Wu stopped her sewing.


    She sighed: "I''m in my early twenties. How many years can I have to entertain people with color? It''s just a matter of time. I just want to do my own business well. I can''t manage so much of the rest. "


    She has no opinion about her marriage.


    After all, we can''t be independent.


    Just ask that Zhang Xiu treat her better.


    On the other hand, Zhang Song left Wu''s residence and took a carriage to the prefecture. Now Liu Zhang''s prefecture has become the residence of Zhang Xiu for the time being.


    Zhang song, as a meritorious official in the palace of the king of Qin, entered very smoothly. In his study, he met Zhang Xiu and bowed himself to say, "I''m Zhang song. I''d like to meet your highness."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter with ziqiao?"


    Zhang Song said, "I''d like to report back to your highness. Wu Yi will hold a banquet in your house at midnight tomorrow morning. I hope your highness will appreciate it."


    Zhang Xiu frowned.Since it''s an invitation, it''s not Wu Yi, but Zhang Songlai.


    There is something wrong with it.


    As soon as Zhang Song saw the change of Zhang Xiu''s expression, he quickly explained: "Your Highness, the reason why he came here is because he was a humble job protecting the media. This Wu Yi has a younger sister, Wu amaranth, who was born with a beautiful face. "


    "Wu amaranth is a woman who married Liu Mao, Liu Zhang''s third brother."


    "Only a few years ago, Liu Mao died."


    "Your Highness is wise and powerful, so Wu Yi has a mind to marry her younger sister to Her Highness. But that''s what I told Wu Yi. First, whether your highness will go or not depends on your Highness''s decision. Second, whether your highness will accept Wu amaranth or not depends on your highness seeing Wu amaranth after he really goes to the banquet. "


    Zhang Song changed his view and said, "so I came here for Wu Yi to invite his highness to the banquet."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu pondered in her heart.


    He doesn''t worry about Wu Yi''s banquet, because Zhang song is determined to work for Zhang Xiu, and can''t betray her. And the reason why we want to work with Wu Yi to promote Zhang Xiu''s acceptance of Wu amaranth is actually to increase her influence.


    Zhang Xiu knows Wu amaranth.


    In history, Wu amaranth first married Liu Mao, and later lived in a widowed family. After Liu Bei entered Shu, he married Wu amaranth. When Liu Bei became emperor, Wu amaranth became Liu Bei''s Queen. Finally, Wu amaranth died and was buried in Liu Bei''s Huiling.


    Zhang Xiu wants to see such a woman.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you arrange it. Tomorrow morning, I will be there on time."


    "I''ll do it


    When Zhang Song heard this, he was very happy.


    Once the marriage between Zhang Xiu and Wu amaranth was facilitated, Wu Yi''s status would rise, and they, the civil and military generals of Yizhou, would have a flag.


    This is Zhang Song''s intention.


    He wanted to set up a benchmark for Yizhou generals.


    Without delay, Zhang Song quickly left the prefecture and took a carriage to Wu Yi''s residence again. After arriving, Zhang Song meets Wu Yi and immediately tells her that Zhang Xiu is going to a banquet. She asks Wu Yi to prepare good wine for Zhang Xiu.


    Wu Yi responded one by one, feeling both excited and expectant.


    It''s done.


    The future of the Wu family lies in this.

 Chapter 822

    The next day, early in the morning.


    After having breakfast in the house, Zhang Xiu cleaned up, read for a while, and got the time right before taking a carriage to Wu Yi''s residence. He left the prefecture, accompanied by Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan.


    Today, the Wu family is very busy. People are coming and going. The servants of the Wu family are always busy. They should clean up and clean up.


    After all the arrangements, Wu Yi has already arrived at the gate in person, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s way.


    He only invited Zhang song.


    He didn''t invite the others. After all, his younger sister''s affairs are still in the air.


    "Wheel! The wheels


    A carriage was coming. Wu Yi looked around and saw that it was Zhang Song''s car. However, Wu Yi did not dare to neglect, and immediately stepped forward. After Zhang Song got off the bus, Wu Yi immediately went forward to greet him.


    Wu Yi said, "brother ziqiao, you are here. When you are not here, I greet your highness alone, but I am still a little frightened. You''re here, and I''ve got the backbone. "


    Zhang Song said with a smile: "my brother is modest."


    They came to the gate, talking and laughing. They agreed with each other.


    Time goes by little.


    As soon as he arrived, suddenly, a man came on horseback, headed by Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and Shi a. After the three appeared, Zhang Xiu''s carriage was behind.


    "Here it is


    Seeing this, Zhang Song said immediately.


    Immediately, Zhang Song and Wu Yi went down the steps of the mansion together and came to the gate of the mansion. They bowed slightly and waited quietly. After a while, the carriage stopped, but the curtain of the carriage door was lifted, and Zhang Xiu came down from the carriage.


    "Humble duty, see your highness!"


    Zhang Song and Wu Yi salute Zhang Xiu at the same time.


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    As the host, Wu Yi waved her hand and said, "Your Highness, please come inside."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, shook his sleeve robe and strode to the front. Following, Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan accompany Zhang Xiu. The three just guard her side and protect her safety.


    Wu Yi and Zhang Song joined hands to enter.


    When the party entered the hall, the guests and guests took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu is sitting on the throne. Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan all kneel down behind Zhang Xiu.


    Wu Yi and Zhang song, on both sides.


    At this time, the family''s attendants came in, placed jars of wine and prepared a lot of meat. Today''s world, because of the Chang''an family and restaurants, many classic dishes have been spread, all over the world, have begun large-scale pig breeding.


    The same is true of Wu Yi''s family.


    There are not only beef, but also many pork dishes.


    Zhang Songxian took a glass of wine and solemnly said: "Your Highness''s visit to Yizhou has enabled thousands of people in Yizhou to escape from the sea of suffering and no longer suffer from the invasion of war. Your highness, as far as Yizhou is concerned, has made a great contribution. His humble position is Zhang song. Respect your highness! "


    With that, he took the lead in drinking.


    Zhang Xiu responded with a smile.


    Zhang song is very smart, but for Zhang song, now Zhang Xiu has not much impression.


    Wu Yi is also a toast to Zhang Xiu.


    Three people together, push the cup to hand over the cup, it is quite lively.


    After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhang Song''s face looked forward to it and said, "general Wu Yi, if you have wine but no singing and dancing, it''s not enough. You can sing and dance."


    "Pa! Bang


    Wu Yi clapped her hands three times immediately.


    With the applause, there was a crowd of women entering the hall quickly.


    These women surrounded the city one by one, just like the stars holding the moon, holding the innermost women in the center. All the women were wearing thin clothes made of Sichuan brocade. They could see the graceful figures of each woman.


    When these women entered the hall, they stood still, and then, as if the buds were blooming, they swayed with the wind and the white willows. A woman''s swing, the most central, a woman twisting posture, like catkins swing.


    Its posture is graceful and graceful!


    Its appearance, charming and moving!


    Its skin is beautiful!


    As soon as such a woman appeared, she immediately captured all the light, making all the eyes focus on her.


    This woman is Wu amaranth.


    She was charming, with a slight smile on her lips. With her posture swing, the whole song and dance formation changes, all the women, began to spread, but still with Wu amaranth as the core.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are bright. When it comes to beauty, among the women around him, I''m afraid only big and small Joe can compare with it, but they are all spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums.


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly, took the bottle in front of her and took a sip of wine.


    Zhang song has been paying attention to Zhang Xiu''s manner. Seeing that Zhang Xiu has a look of praise and relish, he is finally relieved. He also looked at Wu Yi and nodded his head.It''s done!


    In today''s situation, we just need to go down smoothly.


    Time flies by.


    A song and dance, in a twinkling of an eye has ended, Wu amaranth and all the girls retreat, the hall is quiet again.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "it''s good, it''s good, the dance is beautiful, but the people are more beautiful."


    Wu Yi said, "Your Highness, I praise you falsely."


    Zhang Song immediately took the call, and then took the initiative to say: "Your Highness is now in Yizhou, and there is no one around to take care of your Highness''s daily life. As it happens, Wu amaranth, the younger sister of general Wu, lives in a widowed family and has no marriage. Let Wu amaranth go to the prefecture and take care of the general''s daily life. "


    It''s a given thing.


    However, Zhang song is put forward, this is the initiative to let Zhang Xiu agree.


    Wu Yi also said: "if you can do this, it will be my honor."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    He is not a hypocritical person, such a thing, there is nothing to refuse.


    When Wu Yi and Zhang Song heard this, they finally settled down.


    Two people accompany Zhang Xiu, push the cup to hand over the cup, a banquet, the guests and the host are happy, Zhang Xiu after having lunch in the Wu family, just take Wang Yue and others to leave. Just before he went back to the prefecture, Wu Yi had arranged to send Wu amaranth to his family and Zhang Xiu.


    Wu amaranth look calm, bowed: "I see your highness."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "when you come to my house, you are my woman. If you need anything, just arrange it. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Wu amaranth immediately opened her mouth.


    For Zhang Xiu, Wu amaranth''s heart is also quite curious.


    Such a handsome young man turned out to be the king of Qin in the Great Han Dynasty and one of the most powerful in the world. She thought that such a person would be arrogant and difficult to get along with. Did not expect that in front of Zhang Xiu, she did not feel any pressure, but rather relaxed.


    This is the first sense of Wu amaranth.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, it was Wang Yue''s voice that rang out outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    Wang Yue pushed the door to enter, he looked at Wu amaranth, then lowered his head, stood in front of Zhang Xiu, reported: "Lord, there is news from Bajun."


    With that, Wang Yue delivered the news.


    Wu amaranth initiative way: "Your Highness has government affairs to deal with, concubine body then leave."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    When Wu amaranth left, Zhang Xiu had opened the letter, scanned it quickly, and said in a deep voice, "you didn''t expect that Zhao Wei would dare to resist. In the face of my orders, he did not surrender, not only that, but also to fight to the end. Even Zhao Wei claimed to be king of Ba. "


    "It''s not enough to be afraid of the curfew."


    Wang Yue said, "Your Highness, do you want to summon commander Sima and others to discuss business immediately?"

 Chapter 823

    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "no! It''s not a big deal that Zhao Wei wants to fight to death. After Chen Dao and Gan Ning withdrew, we immediately went east to attack Zhao Wei. Zhao Wei''s military strength is not enough for fear. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bows his hand and responds.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "now Zhao Wei wants to resist. You have four things to do."


    Wang Yue said: "please make it public!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the first thing is to arrange the royal guards lurking in Bajun to publicize Zhao Wei''s rebellion, which can only lead to thousands of people suffering in Bajun. In addition, he also publicized Zhao Wei''s arrogance and despotism and wantonly plundered the people, so that the whole Ba County people did not support Zhao Wei. "


    Wang Yue nodded.


    This kind of thing, the royal guards under his command, is quite skilled, not difficult.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the second thing is to publicize that I am going to attack Bajun. In addition, I will publicize my strength in attacking Bajun. When we attacked Zhao Wei in this battle, we said that we had 100000 troops, and we were about to enter Bajun. "


    "Ah


    Wang Yue heard a exclamation.


    He didn''t expect to publicize 100000 people. Is there such a large number of troops?


    Wang Yue thought that 70, 000 troops were suitable.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she said with a smile, "don''t you calculate the 100000 troops yourself? The fierce tiger army, the Langya camp, the regular army of Zhang Ya, the flying Qiang army, and even the loyal army of Zhang Ren, if all the troops were deployed, let alone 100000, 120000 or 130000, they would be able to gather. "


    When Wang Yue heard this, he said, "Your Highness is wise and stupid. You can''t figure it out. Zhao Wei''s military strength was only 20000 or 30000 in Jiangzhou county. Your Highness''s army may not have to attack Zhao Wei, but Zhao Wei will not be able to bear the pressure. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you can subdue people without fighting, it is the best."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "the third thing is to spread out on a large scale the matter of reducing people''s taxes, meeting people''s corvee and providing farmland after our king came to Yizhou. In this way, the people will support the king. At that time, Zhao Wei will be in Jiangzhou and will never be able to stand firm again. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    At this time, Wang Yue also admired Zhang Xiu in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the fourth thing is to order the person in charge of the royal guards in Jiangzhou to see if he can contact the people under Zhao Wei. If we can persuade Zhao Wei''s people to turn their backs, we can reduce a lot of things. "


    Wang Yue said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the voice of a soldier outside the study sounded: "king, Zhang Ren, Zhang Yan, shamoko three generals asked to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    Wang Yue did not stay and immediately turned back.


    Not long after, Zhang Ren, Zhang Ya and shamoko entered the army. They were all generals in the army, and they were stationed in Chengdu. After all, it was the Langya camp and the fierce tiger army that swept all over the country, and the three stayed behind.


    After the ceremony, the three took their seats.


    Zhang xiudao said, "if you come together, what''s the important thing?"


    Zhang Yan took the initiative and said, "Your Highness, we are in Chengdu now and have nothing to do. Things in the army are also easy to breed a sense of laziness. They even have nothing to do all day long. They are easy to fight and make trouble. Therefore, after discussion, the three of us discussed a few things, hoping to get his Highness''s support and permission. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhang chin said: "the most basic drill of soldiers in the army is to run back and forth to exercise their toughness. Therefore, after discussing with the three generals, they planned to let the soldiers set out from the west gate of Chengdu City and run to wangjiangshan 25 away. "


    "Then, run back from wangjiangshan, and then go back to Xicheng."


    "Whether it''s the loyal army, the regular army, or even the flying Qiang army, they each choose 30 people to fight, and a total of 90 people take part. Along the way, soldiers will be arranged to observe, to ensure that all people participate and will not cheat. "


    "On the one hand, the purpose of doing this is to let the soldiers who have nothing to do have something to do. On the other hand, it also enables the soldiers in the army to have the fighting spirit of tenacity and disdain. "


    Zhang said, "so the three of us hope that the Lord can approve it, and also ask the Lord to go to the city floor of Ximen and observe the battle in person."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t have any hesitation, so she responded directly.


    In fact, there are still competitions among the three major armies in Chengdu. Now the armed forces have nothing to do. Let them have something to do. And doing so can also promote the competition among the three armed forces. It''s a good suggestion.


    "Thank you


    Zhang Yan, Zhang Ren and shamoko should go down together.


    One by one, their faces were filled with joy.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "it''s not easy to run fifty miles this time. There are no restrictions on the selection of officers in your army. As long as you are willing to participate, you can participate. ""Here it is


    The three of them responded together again.


    One by one, the faces were full of joy.


    The three didn''t stay much, so they turned around and stepped down to do their own business. Because this contest is not only to let the soldiers in the army have something to do, but also to stimulate their fighting spirit. In the same way, it is also a competition among the three armies. For officers and men in the army, honor is always the first, and we must never lose it.


    After the three left, Zhang Xiu continued to deal with the government affairs.


    As time went by, it was evening.


    Zhang Xiu''s dinner in the evening was prepared by Wu amaranth, which was quite delicious. After dinner and dealing with some government affairs, Zhang Xiu went to the rest place in the back yard.


    He went straight to Wu amaranth''s yard.


    This is what it should be.


    Wu amaranth is sent to his house. If Zhang Xiu is Liu Xiahui, she doesn''t care about Wu amaranth at all. I''m afraid Wu Yi''s heart will go up and down again, worried about whether Zhang Xiu has any idea.


    It''s a beautiful room with only one man and few women. Two people a dry firewood, a fire, soon after, that swaying red candle, saw two figures have entangled together.


    I don''t know when it will disappear.


    The next day, early morning!


    Zhang Xiu got up early. He looked at Wu amaranth, who was still resting beside him, with a smile in his mouth.


    This woman is really made of water.


    Although Wu amaranth''s color is outstanding, Zhang Xiu is not addicted to it. He knows that the color is a bone scraper. If he indulges in it, it is impossible for him to accomplish the great task of dominating the world.


    After leaving the backyard, Zhang Xiu went back to her study and continued to read the latest news.


    Now this is Zhang Xiu''s daily life,


    time passes in such repetition.


    In the twinkling of an eye, five days later, in the morning when Zhang Xiu had just had a meal, Zhang Yan, Zhang Ren and Sha Moke had already come together. When they met Zhang Xiu, they solemnly said, "my Lord, everything has been arranged. Today, we can do it. The time we choose is in the morning. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "let''s go. I''m a little curious about the current situation. In the end, we will see which army will win. "


    "Conventional soldiers are no weaker than anyone," Zhang said


    Zhang Ren said: "the loyal and righteous army is duty bound!"


    Shamoko raised his head and hurled his voice to the ground: "I''m flying in the Qiang army. A young man is walking fast. That''s a sure victory."


    Zhang Xiu laughed in her heart.


    Among these three people, they have been fighting each other, but this is a benign competition, and Zhang Xiu is happy to see it come true.


    "Let''s go!"


    Together with the three, Zhang Xiu strides out of the prefecture and goes to the West Gate Tower of Chengdu. Now it''s near the end of April, and the weather is getting better and better, especially today''s weather, sunny and pleasant.


    It''s a good day to stay on the tower and bask in the sun.


    When Zhang Xiu went to the tower of the West City, he also called Sima Yi, Pang Tong, Fazheng, Zhang song, Wu Yi, Huang Quan and others. All of them went to the tower.


    In fact, they all heard the news and knew what Zhang Ren, Zhang Yan, shamoko and others wanted to fight.

 Chapter 824

    Standing on the tower of the city, Zhang Xiu looked out and saw that the flying Qiang army, the regular army and the loyal army were already arrayed outside the city. Not only that, starting from the gate of Chengdu''s West City, both sides of the official road have all drawn the red line, and there is no common people on the official road five feet wide.


    Because in the past few days, Zhang and others have put the journey from Xicheng to wangjiangshan on the red line, so that the people will not make trouble.


    In addition, along the way, soldiers were arranged to patrol every ten meters, and those who participated were forbidden to run off the road. Not only that, the army also arranged for some marquis to sit down along the way, so as to monitor at any time.


    Zhang Ya continued: "Lord, apart from our soldiers to maintain order, I have asked Lord Wang to arrange patrols along the way to avoid trouble. Everything is ready. I just listen to your Highness''s orders. "


    Zhang Xiu stood on the tower, he looked at 90 soldiers gathered at the gate of the city, and did not immediately order.


    He said in a loud voice: "although Zhang Yan, Zhang Ren and shamoko did not announce the winner before this long journey, how can they reward them. Today, I tell you that everyone who enters the top ten will be rewarded. Those who can get the first place, those above Marquis, will be promoted to one rank. People below the Marquis of the army directly worship the Marquis of the army "


    the Marquis of the army has a total of 500 people, which is a higher position than the centurion.


    It can be said that this is an intermediate officer.


    Such awards are very attractive to the officers and men in the army. If an ordinary soldier can directly worship him as Marquis of the army, it''s like smoke from his ancestral grave.


    Especially for those above the rank of marquis, it''s not easy for them to be promoted to a higher rank.


    Promotion to a higher level is even more inspiring.


    After Zhang Xiu''s order was given, all the soldiers in the army were excited one by one. The ninety soldiers who took part in the war became very hot with one eyebrow.


    In fact, Zhang Ya and others did not say specific awards, but everyone knows that after winning, they will definitely get awards. But now Zhang Xiu''s order, is causes everybody to be excited.


    Here''s the chance!


    Their chance of promotion has come.


    The rest of the three armies of soldiers, one by one in the side of the soldiers, heard Zhang Xiu''s words, many people are extremely regret. If they had known that, they should have been involved.


    They all regret it.


    But regret, it''s no use.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition to your commendation, I would like to repeat that in the process of running, you should not beat and stop wantonly. Once anyone is found, there will be no amnesty for killing!"


    In the words, there is a lot of killing spirit.


    As soon as this order came out, many people who took part in the war looked embarrassed. Because many of them are ready to stop the beating and destroy some of their enemies.


    But with an order from Zhang Xiu, no one dares to act rashly.


    Those who act rashly, die!


    Zhang Xiu said no more and ordered: "start!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, all the soldiers began to run forward with full horsepower. However, some of the soldiers did not rush forward with all their strength at the beginning.


    Zhang Xiu put all this in her eyes, smiling in her heart.


    Everyone who comes out of the army, especially those who are used to long-distance running, knows that it''s taboo to work hard at the beginning. Such a long-distance race is not a contest of gains and losses, but a contest of endurance, endurance and willpower, and more importantly, a contest of perseverance. In such a premise, we must maintain a long breath, otherwise, it is difficult to last.


    It wasn''t long. Everyone had disappeared, all in sight.


    At this time, the city tower is free.


    The soldiers in the army are in their own formation.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu directly gave an order to the soldiers under her command, allowing everyone to sit down and rest in place, and also allowing them to talk. After this order was given, the soldiers were pardoned.


    It''s not easy to be a strict array all the time.


    The soldiers sat down and chatted with each other in a warm atmosphere.


    Zhang Xiu, FA Zheng, Sima Yi and others all sat on the upper floor of the city. At this time, everyone sat down and did not stand. After all, there was nothing to do on the upper floor of the city.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Fazheng and said, "you all know the news about Zhao Wei. What do you think is the possibility that Zhao Wei will finally resist? "


    His highness, Zhao Wei, said with a smile. But his people may not insist. In particular, many of Zhao Wei''s generals are aware of the great disparity between his highness and Zhao Wei. Once the army is killed, Zhao Wei will be defeated. In my opinion, the chaos in Bajun is not a difficult matter. It''s a piece of cake. "


    Sima Yi said, "I agree with my humble position."


    Fazheng suddenly said, "but there is still one person in the north of Bajun who needs attention."


    Zhang xiudao: "who?"Fazheng replied, "his name is Yan Yan. He is the prefect of Bajun appointed by Liu Zhang. But most of the time, Yan Yan is located in the north of Bajun, near Hanchang County in Hanzhong. "


    "Zhao Wei fled to Jiangzhou in Bajun before and captured Jiangzhou."


    "Yan Yan was ordered by Liu Zhang to take charge of Hanchang county and avoid his Highness''s army. Since the middle and Southern Han Dynasty, Yan Yan has never been in charge of Zhao Wei."


    "Later, his highness killed Liu Zhang, and Yan Yan stayed in Hanchang county all the time. Now, we should arrange for people to go to Hanchang county to surrender. "


    FA Zheng said, "Yan Yan is a great general."


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, arrange for the royal guards to come to Hanchang county to surrender Yan Yan. As long as he is obedient, I don''t care about the past and will be promoted and appointed. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer.


    When several people chatted, Zhang Xiu didn''t have much to do. She simply asked people to take go, chess, etc. and let everyone play with each other to pass the time. After all, there is nothing to do now.


    It''s fifty miles. It can''t be completed in a short time. It must be completed in the original time.


    We can''t all stare.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, people should play go and chess. It''s just that people like shamoko have nothing to do. He''s not even a big character, let alone a chess player.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is looking forward to who can stand out this time.


    And at this time, a group of people running, is running fast. This group of people in the front of the five miles, almost did not shake off anyone, but beyond ten miles, gradually, there are many soldiers left behind, has begun to keep up with the pace.


    But all the soldiers didn''t give up.


    Opportunity!


    This is a chance for promotion!


    If a person who is a marquis can come first, he can be promoted directly and become a marquis.


    Those above the rank of marquis can be promoted to a higher rank.


    In this army, it''s quite difficult to upgrade an officer to a higher level, which is not a simple and easy task. Especially when it comes to Marquis, he is already the chief General of the army.


    So all the people who took part in the war were still running with their teeth clenched.


    Among them, there was a young man in his early twenties.


    His name is Deng Zhi.


    He was a new savage in Nanyang County. When the yellow scarf army made trouble in his early years, he had already entered Yizhou with his family and lived in Chengdu. It can be said that Deng Zhi is also the descendant of a famous family. His ancestor, Deng Yu, was an important official of the founding emperor Liu Xiu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. When Emperor Ming ordered people to draw the portraits of 28 meritorious officials of the founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Deng Yu ranked first.


    Unfortunately, by the time Deng Zhi arrived, he had already lived up to the past.


    He lived in Chengdu and grew up attached to Pang Xi. After all, Pang Xi was good at nurturing scholars and had many disciples, so Deng Zhi was under Pang Xi''s door.


    Before that, Pang Xi was killed, all his family members were killed, and all the disciples were demobilized. Deng Zhi went directly into the army and became the smallest soldier in Zhang Ren''s loyal army.


    There''s no way.


    He has no access, no connections, can only start from the army, and to be able to enter the loyalty army, but also depends on knowing a commander of the loyalty army.


    At this moment, Deng Zhi was involved, and his goal was to be number one.


    He wants to win the first place.


    As soon as he thought that he had studied hard for more than ten years and was still a soldier, he was unwilling. He wanted to win the first place, become a marquis and a valiant general in the army.

 Chapter 825

    Deng zhipingrili, who has been practicing martial arts, has excellent physical fitness. Under Pang Xi''s command, although he had martial arts skills, he could also lead the army to fight. But the problem is that Pang Xi had so many disciples that he had no chance to get ahead.


    So much so that he is always a doorman.


    Deng Zhi has no fame. He is full of ambition and martial arts, but he can''t show it.


    This time, Deng Zhi saw the opportunity.


    In addition, he often does long-distance running exercises on weekdays. He knows that it is impossible for him to run 50 miles only with a cavity of brute force, and it is good to run half of the distance.


    Deng Zhi''s breathing is relatively steady from beginning to end.


    In the first five miles, he was almost at the end of the crane.


    In the first ten miles, he was in the middle and back.


    When he got close to Wang Jiangshan, Deng Zhi was already at the front, in the front echelon. Although Deng Zhi''s position is not at the top, but in the top 15, Deng Zhi is satisfied with such a result.


    Because it''s only half run.


    The more you get to the back, the harder it is to run and the harder it is to stick to it.


    Deng Zhi ran to the position of looking out at the mountains and rivers, and then began to turn back. The journey of this turn back is the same as when we came here. It is the same way to return. But on the way back, 90 people had already scattered, all scattered.


    Ninety people are distributed over more than 20 miles, which is extremely scattered.


    Deng Zhi maintains his own speed and is still moving forward.


    In his heart, he was counting the people in front of him.


    He''s in the top ten.


    Especially from Chengdu''s west gate, less than ten miles away, he has reached the top five position.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    Dengzhi''s breathing, though rapid, was stable.


    His rhythm is very good.


    When Deng Zhi was less than eight miles away from the west gate of the city, on both sides of the road, there was a general who specially took some soldiers to maintain order.


    This man''s name is Lei Tong. He is a captain of the loyal army.


    His official position is one level higher than that of marquis.


    Lei Tong used to be a strong general of Liu Zhang''s society, but now he works under Zhang Ren. He was a violent man and despised Deng Zhi, especially when Deng Zhi was a disciple of Pang Xi, he had some festivals with Lei Tong.


    After Deng Zhi joined the army, he became a soldier in the army. Lei Tong once humiliated Deng Zhi. It''s just that Deng Zhi is not a soldier directly under Lei Tong, so he is just humiliating. In particular, as the most common soldier, Deng Zhi can often be humiliated and his heart is open.


    Now, Lei Tong''s eyes see that Deng Zhi has rushed to the third place, and his eyes are more cool.


    Don''t let Deng Zhi rush to the front.


    Lei Tong rode with his soldiers and went on his way together. Suddenly, he came up with a plan and said, "come here, take a flag of our loyal army."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    Soon, a soldier entered with a flag of the loyal army, and then went straight to Deng Zhi. As the soldiers ran, they called Deng Zhi''s name.


    When Deng Zhi saw the soldiers coming, she turned her eyes and saw the thunder copper not far away. He saw the running man, with a little force under his feet, accelerating forward.


    It''s just that his speed is much slower now.


    The soldier rushed in again, faster than him.


    Before long, the soldiers came to Deng Zhi again. Seeing the soldiers rushing in with the flag of the loyalist army in their hands, Deng Zhi''s face was full of anger.


    It is the flag representing the loyal army.


    Can he not answer?


    If you don''t answer it, I''m afraid you will be blamed when the news comes out. He stretched out his hand to pick up, but the soldier who handed it over let go first, which led to the flag of the loyal army falling directly.


    When Deng Zhi saw this, his heart flashed all kinds of ideas like lightning. His first idea was to pick up the flag of the loyalist army, but he didn''t do it in the end, and he continued to run.


    It''s a game.


    It''s his only chance.


    Now, he is just the most common soldier, so Lei Tong dares to frame him and arrange people to come.


    Once he''s a marquis, it''s different.


    Dengzhi continued to run forward, and then began to adjust his rhythm. Just now, the soldiers rushed up. The rhythm of his running forward was completely disordered. If he didn''t adjust and chase forward, he would surely fall behind.


    Especially now, it has fallen to the fourth person.


    You know, he was the third before. He was not too far away from the second and the first.


    Deng Zhi adjusted his speed, accelerated slightly, and began to catch up with the front.


    At this time, the soldier who handed out the flag of the loyalist army could not catch up with him. He quietly went out of the red line. Then he came to Lei Tong not far away and said, "general Lei, the flag of the loyalist army has fallen to the ground. At that time, the villain let go a little earlier, leading to dengzhi did not receive the flag"Waste!"


    Thunder copper swung the whip in his hand and pulled it down.


    "Pa!"


    The whip whipped the soldier. The soldier shivered with pain, but he didn''t dare to make a sound. Soldiers in the army know that Lei Tong''s temper is fierce. The more you convict, the worse it may be.


    Lei Tong glared at the soldier and began to gallop.


    He chased forward.


    With the speed of the war horse, he went on. It wasn''t long before Lei Tong caught up with him. However, this time, Lei Tong did not immediately arrange for the soldiers to hand out the flag representing the loyal army again, but followed along.


    At this time, the cool color in Lei Tong''s eyes became heavier and heavier, and his anger became deeper and deeper.


    Because leitong found that dengzhi had run to the front.


    At the moment, it is less than a mile away from the west gate of Chengdu.


    At this time, if we don''t stop Deng Zhi, he will rush to the front. Once Deng Zhi won the first place and became the Marquis of the army, even if his official position was lower, it would pose a threat to him.


    This is what thunder copper doesn''t want.


    Thunder copper once again called the soldiers, let the soldiers take a flag of loyal army, once again rushed out.


    This time, the soldiers were ordered to rush directly in front of Deng Zhi. The flag of the loyal army spread out and made the gesture of handing it to Deng Zhi. Dengzhi wants to change the way to avoid, but as soon as dengzhi changes the direction, the soldiers immediately change the direction and block dengzhi''s way.


    At this time, Deng Zhi was already short of breath, and his whole body was breathing. After running nearly 50 miles, he was extremely tired.


    At the moment, he was blocked and his breath was in chaos.


    Seeing the people coming from the rear, he had no choice but to take over the flag of the loyal army.


    If you don''t pick it up, it will be blocked.


    There will be a delay.


    The most important thing is that the state he had been maintaining before collapsed because of the soldiers'' obstruction. The whole person''s rhythm, completely disordered, can no longer maintain the previous state, this is the worst thing.


    When Deng Zhi took over, he held the flag of the loyal army in his hand. But the problem was that when he ran with his bare hands, his own state was completely unaffected, and he could gradually adjust the rhythm.


    Now, it can''t.


    Holding the flag of the loyal army in his hand, his whole rhythm is in a mess, and it''s not easy to adjust. It''s very uncomfortable. As soon as Deng Zhi gritted his teeth and ran a few steps, he rushed forward and threw away the flag of the loyal army.


    Dengzhi starts to catch up. He can''t fall behind.


    He didn''t want to lose the chance.


    This curtain fell in Lei Tong''s eyes not far away. Lei Tong saw Deng Zhi throwing away the flag of the loyal army, and his mouth lit up a smile.


    This time, Deng Zhi is dead.

 Chapter 826

    In Lei Tong''s calculation, Deng Zhi took over the flag representing the loyal army. His own rhythm was in disorder, so it must be impossible to win the first place.


    Now, in order to speed up the race, Deng Zhongzhi will take the first place.


    Is it trustworthy for a man to throw away the flag of loyalists for the sake of interests?


    It''s not worth it!


    Is it worth reusing a person who throws away the flag of the loyalist army for the sake of interests?


    It''s not worth it!


    This is ray copper''s calculation.


    No matter whether Deng Zhi receives or does not receive the flag, no matter whether Deng Zhi throws or does not throw the flag, Deng Zhi will lose.


    This time, Deng Zhi was miserable.


    Thunder copper riding horse, slowly forward, face bright smile.


    Now, Deng Zhi is biting his teeth and running constantly. He just feels that his lungs have reached the limit and he is about to be unable to breathe. Even though he felt a little blank in his mind, Deng Zhi persisted all the time.


    People who are more and more close to him.


    Five steps!


    Four steps!


    Three steps!


    When they got closer, Deng Zhi bit his teeth and started a sprint, because it was less than 200 Zhang away from the gate of the city at this time. This was the last distance, so he started a sprint.


    Dengzhi quickly forward, more than the front of the people, to regain the first, steady forward.


    When Deng Zhi and his party began to approach the west gate, Zhang Xiu could see clearly within a distance of more than 100 Zhang. When Zhang Xiu was idle playing chess with Sima Yi and others to pass the time, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu''s side, lowered his voice and said something.


    What he reported was that Lei Tong had arranged people to hand over the flag of the loyal army.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Ren not far away. She said: "elder martial brother, this time, you''ve arranged for the soldiers in the army to compete. Do you want to hand over the flag of loyalty army to your soldiers on the way? Let them go with the flag of the loyal army? "


    "No!"


    Zhang Ren shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Ren looked solemn and said, "Your Highness, we all know the long journey, especially the running of tens of miles. At the end of the day, let alone a big flag, even extremely lightweight items are cumbersome in hand, which will delay time. I wish my men would win. How can I make such an arrangement? "


    "Oh, I see."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and didn''t say much.


    Zhang Ren was a little strange and said, "Your Highness, but what happened?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll know in a moment."


    With that, he stood up, hands on the wall, eyes on the distance, already can see the people running back. In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there are more than ten people running back on the official road outside the west gate.


    The one who runs in the front is Deng Zhi.


    Zhang Ren also stood up. He heard what Zhang Xiu had just said, and suddenly he felt a little uneasy.


    Don''t let anything go down there.


    At the moment, not far from both sides of the road, the soldiers in the formation all spontaneously stood up, looked at the people running, and began to shout to cheer for their respective people.


    Shouts, one after another.


    Countless soldiers began to shout, they waited for such a long time, for this short time is bright.


    This is the last excitement.


    One by one, the soldiers yelled, the momentum of a wave higher than a wave, incomparably excited.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Deng Zhi.


    He has just heard Wang Yue''s report about Deng Zhi. As for Deng Zhi, he knew that he was a great general in the later period of the Shu Han Dynasty. He was very talented in governing the local areas and leading the troops to fight.


    Seeing that Deng Zhi was less than a hundred steps away from the gate of the west gate, Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "ladies and gentlemen, the first one to come back is about to arrive. Let''s go to the gate of the city to welcome the returned son."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    For Sima Yi, FA Zheng, Zhang Song and others, they didn''t find it much fun.


    They''re just getting involved.


    However, for Zhang Ren, shamoko and Zhang Yan, this can represent their own glory, so they are most excited. They follow Zhang Xiu and soon go down to the gate of the city.


    At this time, Deng Zhi was less than 20 steps away from the gate of the city. Deng Zhi and the second distance opened more than ten steps, the second and third opened about five steps, there are still some people in the follow-up quite dense.


    At the moment, Deng Zhi has launched the final sprint.


    "Kill


    Deng Zhi tried to roar.


    He rushed forward quickly, even if his body was exhausted, even if his legs didn''t listen to him, even if his heart kept beating, but all these could not stop Deng Zhi.In the twinkling of an eye, he had reached the starting point.


    Jump by.


    At this time, Deng Zhi, with a smile on his face, stopped and felt that his legs were filled with lead. The whole person is sweating like rain, and the beaded sweat drops are constantly dripping on the ground.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    Dengzhi big mouth big mouth breathing, the lung inside the breathing, as if the general bellows, whistling.


    He put his hands on his knees, hunched and panting.


    He''s adjusting his breath.


    After Deng Zhi arrived for a while, the second and third arrived one after another, and the top ten also came back in turn. A person''s face, the cheeks are extremely red, are breathing, extremely uncomfortable.


    It''s not generally possible to run 50 miles all the way. The key is that it''s still a contest. You can''t stop to rest, you can only keep running forward, so everyone is very tired.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, but she was full of praise.


    "The king of Qin, the last general, Lei Tong, has something to start!"


    By this time, Lei Tong had turned over and dismounted. He came not far from Zhang Xiu and saluted. His eyes twinkled with excitement, because this time, Deng Zhi was dead.


    Thunder copper is to let Deng Zhi die.


    Zhang Ren sees Lei Tong''s action in his eyes, but he is not happy. At this time, what are you doing? After all, thunder copper didn''t run. Especially before Zhang Xiu had asked him, so that Zhang Ren has been hanging in the heart, always feel what happened.


    "What can I do for you?" Zhang xiuhan said


    Lei Tong pointed to Deng Zhi and said, "before Deng Zhi took part in the 50 mile run back and forth, he finally prepared the flag of the loyal army and gave it to Deng Zhi twice to run with the flag of the loyal army."


    "But Deng Zhi just threw it away."


    "The loyal and righteous army was named by the king of Qin."


    "The loyal army represents the king of Qin."


    Lei Tongzheng said: "now Deng Zhi has abandoned it like my shoes, and he doesn''t pay attention to the flag of the loyal army. Such a person has no king in his eyes, but only for the sake of interests, regardless of others. Such a villain is not worthy of being the first. Let the king of Qin learn from him. "


    As soon as his words came out, Zhang Ren''s face changed greatly.


    Deng Zhi, he knows.


    At this moment, Zhang Ren finally understood why Zhang Xiu would ask. Unexpectedly, Lei Tong sent the flag of loyal army to Deng Zhi, which disturbed Deng Zhi''s rhythm.


    This matter can be big or small.


    It depends on how to deal with Zhang Xiu?


    After all, the loyalty army was given by Zhang Xiu, and Deng Zhi threw it away. He didn''t know what Zhang Xiu would do with Deng Zhi.


    Zhang Ren''s heart is very angry. He didn''t expect that at this critical moment, Lei Tong should have done such a thing, which is a shame to the loyal army.


    But now, Zhang Ren can''t handle it.

 Chapter 827

    Zhang Ren''s eyes look at Zhang Xiu. Just at this time, Zhang Xiu''s eyes also came to see. Zhang Xiu''s expression is indifferent, can''t see what anger, light way: "elder martial brother, this matter, how do you see?"


    Zhang Ren is even more embarrassed.


    On the one hand, it was the flag of the loyal army, on the other hand, it was Deng Zhi, a soldier under his command.


    Some are hard to choose.


    At this moment, Deng Zhi''s heart is also lamenting.


    He didn''t take over the flag of the loyalist army before. Not only that, he also threw away the flag of the loyalist army. After two incidents, he knew that Lei Tong would certainly take advantage of it. But there is still a trace of expectation in his heart. What if King Qin Yingming doesn''t blame him?


    Hearing Zhang Xiu asking Zhang Ren, Deng Zhi sighs at Zhang Ren''s dilemma.


    That''s all!


    Plop!


    Deng Zhi knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head and pleaded guilty: "King Qin, villain is guilty, please punish him."


    Zhang Ren saw Deng Zhi kneeling on the ground, his old face flushed with shame. As the commander of the loyal army, how can he make his soldiers suffer. He lifted up his robe, knelt down and said, "Your Highness, the general thinks that Deng Zhi has no problem with this matter."


    "It''s not easy for Deng Zhi to travel a long way as a warrior."


    "Once the rhythm is disrupted, the consequences are unimaginable. Even if Deng Zhi threw away the flag of the loyal army, it was understandable. But the flag of the loyal army, as a gift from his highness, is the supreme glory of our loyal army. "


    Zhang Yiren, with a determined look, said: "no one can give up."


    "In Deng Zhi''s case, the crime lies at the end. Shi Mo will not teach his soldiers, so that today''s events appear. Your highness will punish you, and the last one will be. "


    "Deng Zhi is not guilty."


    "In the battle between the loyal army, the flying Qiang army and the regular army, Deng Zhi won the first place bravely. If he had not been disturbed by the rhythm, he would have won more easily."


    Zhang Ren said in a deep voice: "he is a hero of the loyal army. He won honor for the loyal army and should not be punished."


    After that, Zhang Ren knocked on the ground with his head.


    This scene, make thunder copper stare big eyes. How could it be that Zhang Ren, as the chief General of the loyal army, was even partial to Deng Zhi.


    It surprised him.


    Lei Tong is just a accuser. He is smart and doesn''t speak. Because things went beyond his estimate. Originally, Lei Tong expected that after he reported to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was furious and directly dealt with Deng Zhi.


    But now, it involves Zhang Ren and even makes him plead guilty.


    Zhang Ren pleaded guilty.


    Can he be spared as the initiator? So I can only stand by and look forward to not involving him.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Zhang Ren kneeling on the ground and Deng Zhi kneeling on the ground. He personally walks up to Deng Zhi, supports Deng Zhi who is still short of breath, and says in a deep voice: "you won the first prize bravely and won the honor for the loyal army. You''re a hero. You shouldn''t kneel down. "


    "Kneel down, it''s not your treatment."


    "Carrying the flag of the loyal army is respect for the king. Do not carry the flag of loyal army, respect our king in heart. Such a person, I also appreciate


    "Respect doesn''t have to float on the surface. Respect from the heart is also respect."


    "I believe you, Wang."


    Put aside the question of Zhang Duzhi more directly.


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    Deng Zhi was very excited, and her eyes were full of gratitude.


    Just now, he was full of panic.


    At this moment, a heart settles down. He has not been punished. Obviously, Zhang Ren will not have any problems. Deng Zhi has more respect for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu patted Deng Zhi on the shoulder and said, "you are very good. I think you are good. Now that you have won the first prize, you are not above the rank of marquis. Today, I will promote you as Marquis of the army. Zhang Ren will arrange your specific duties. In the loyal and righteous army, it is Zhang Ren''s business to reward you again. "


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    Deng Zhi bowed slightly to thank him again.


    Zhang Xiu moves away and comes to Zhang Ren. He looks at Zhang Ren kneeling on the ground and says in a deep voice: "elder martial brother, do you know where your biggest mistake is?"


    Zhang Ren was still kneeling on the ground and said, "Your Highness, please make it clear."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept mine copper. At this moment, mine copper was trembling, and her face was full of panic.


    Zhang Xiu drew back her eyes and said, "your biggest mistake is not that you didn''t teach the soldiers to respect our king. Your biggest mistake is that you didn''t restrain your generals and connived at them to disturb the game


    At this time, Zhang Xiu''s face cooled down, and said: "the battle among the loyal army, the regular army and the flying Qiang army is a battle among the three armies, which is of great importance."


    "But the generals under your command, under the banner of the loyal army and in the name of the king, wantonly captured the soldiers in the army. Such black sheep are in your army, but you don''t clean them up, but you don''t know it. "


    "It''s your fault to let such people exist."Zhang Xiu finished with a sentence, only to hear a plop.


    Thunder copper scared a blank, legs a soft, directly fell to the ground. Originally, Lei Tong thought that he was the informer, so there should be nothing wrong with him. But Zhang Xiu''s words implicated the matter in him, which made Lei Tong afraid.


    Lei Tong said in a loud voice: "King Qin, villains are unintentional. Villains are to show the reputation of the loyal army, and also to make the loyal army gain momentum. A villain knows his sin, and a villain knows his mistake. "


    Zhang Ren took a long breath at the moment.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t criticize the flag of the loyal army, so he was relieved. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s accusation, Zhang Ren is convinced, because he really does not restrain the general like Lei Tong, which leads to Lei Tong''s unbridled and disordered plan of contest.


    Zhang Ren knelt down on the ground and said, "plead guilty to your humble duty. Please punish your highness."


    Zhang xiudao said: "if you don''t know anyone, you will be fined three months. Since today, the loyal and righteous army has been reorganized. If you can''t make the whole people in charge of the loyal army as one, there are still people who wilfully frame up their own people. Don''t worry about the name of the loyal army. "


    Zhang Ren said: "Your Highness, please rest assured that you will do your best to rectify the loyal army and live up to your Highness''s high expectations."


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and did not criticize Zhang Ren any more.


    In a word, Zhang Ren has no responsibility. He just carries the pot for no reason. If it wasn''t for Lei Tong, it would have nothing to do with Zhang Ren, but it does prove that Zhang Ren is not bound to his soldiers.


    After Zhang Ren stood up, he looked at the thunder copper lying on the ground, and a trace of coldness passed in his eyes.


    It''s all this damn thunder copper.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Lei Tong. At this time, Lei Tong was in a panic. He said again: "King Qin, villain is wrong. What villain does is also for the loyal army. The villain is rash and impulsive, the villain is guilty, and the villain is willing to be punished. "


    In his words, he said that he was a loyal army.


    This is the pre protection he set up for himself. His starting point is not wrong. Even if he does something bad with good intentions, under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu can not be too harsh on Lei Tong.


    At least, thunder copper has no life to worry about.


    This is the cunning of thunder copper.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the thunder copper that beg for mercy, the cold idea flashed in the eye. He didn''t like people like Lei Tong at all, because after Wang Yue reported the news, he already knew about Lei Tong.


    It''s time to kill people!


    If you don''t kill thunder copper, it''s hard to frighten the curfew.

 Chapter 828

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "what should I do with you?"


    Thunder copper''s face changed greatly.


    The look on his face became alarmed.


    Listen to Zhang Xiu''s tone, it''s clear that she wants to deal with him, or even kill him. Thunder copper insisted not to relax, once again said: "King Qin, villain rash impulse, so nearly hurt Deng Zhi. If the villain is guilty, please punish him. "


    "You''re not impulsive, you''re insidious, you''re evil."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were cold, and said: "the relationship between you and Deng Zhi is not harmonious. As soon as Deng Zhi enters the army, you will repeatedly seek opportunities to humiliate him. "


    "You arranged for soldiers twice to send the flag of the loyalist army to Deng Zhi. Not for the honor of the loyal army, but for your own selfish desire. People like you have a deep mind. They set up Deng Zhi wantonly and have a bad intention. "


    "You are shameless!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "your plan was to let the soldiers pass the flag of the loyal army to Deng Zhi, so as to disturb Deng Zhi''s rhythm and influence Deng Zhi''s speed, making Deng Zhi unable to win the championship and the first place."


    "But Deng Zhi himself didn''t receive the big flag at first. After receiving the big flag the second time, he threw away the big flag of the loyal army. This time, let you seize the opportunity


    "So after Deng Zhi finished running, you came to Wang''s side impatiently to sue Deng Zhi."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is your mind, right?"


    The complexion of thunder copper changes again and again.


    His mind was thoroughly understood by Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t think of it, and even his grudge with Deng Zhi had been known by Zhang Xiu.


    Facing Zhang Xiu''s words, Lei Tong knew that when he was in the most dangerous situation, he did not hesitate to say: "the king of Qin spared his life, the king of Qin spared his life. The villain is guilty. The villain is willing to be punished. Please the king of Qin spared his life!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I will spare your life. How can I explain to thousands of loyal soldiers and convince Deng Zhi. A black sheep like you should be killed! "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    Two soldiers came forward, Zhang Xiu ordered: "drag the thunder copper down to me, and show it to the public."


    "Zhang Xiu, you should die."


    When Lei Tong hears Zhang Xiu''s words, he grits his teeth and starts to swing his fist towards Zhang Xiu, intending to take her down. As long as he takes Zhang Xiu, with Zhang Xiu in his hand, he can escape.


    Just when Lei Tong just got up and approached Zhang Xiu, he saw that Zhang Xiu raised his leg and kicked it out.


    Bang!


    Zhang Xiu kicks on Lei Tong''s chest. In a flash, peiran''s strength burst out, and only a click came out. The rib of thunder copper''s waist broke immediately.


    Thunder copper burly body, directly inverted fly out.


    Sonorous!


    At this time, a clear sound like a dragon''s song sounded. Wang Yue''s face was cold, and he had already stepped out. He had already rushed to the front of the thunder copper, and the sword on his waist was already in his hand, that is to cut it off with one sword.


    Cold white light, flash in the air.


    The next moment, has not fallen on the ground of thunder copper, is already the corpse separation. That red blood, but also from the loss of head on the neck, constantly splashing out, spilled on the ground.


    Plop! Plop!


    The body and the head landed almost at the same time.


    Blood is still flowing out, and this scene is deeply imprinted in the eyes of all soldiers outside the west city.


    The soldier looked at Zhang Xiu in awe.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the body of Lei Tong is hanging outside the west gate and exposed to the sun for three days!"


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren responded directly.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the soldiers who participated in the robe this time will be rewarded if they survive. The rest of the winners will be awarded according to the previous awards given by the official. As for how you should reward each other in the army, you should make your own arrangements. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren, shamoko and Zhang jaw should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t say much anymore. She turns around and leaves with all the people, leaving Zhang Ren, shamoke and Zhang Yan.


    Shamoko patted his chest and said, "it''s rare for my Lord to get angry. Today, his highness is angry. It''s really frightening. Zhang Ren, this time, you are really dangerous! "


    Zhang chin said: "in the current situation, it seems that not only the loyal and righteous army, but also our respective armies should make certain adjustments and clean up the atmosphere."


    Zhang Ren said, "what general Yi said is true."


    After a simple communication, each of them deals with their own affairs. However, there are still many people who have not come back and can not be evacuated for the time being, so shamoko and Zhang jaw began to teach their soldiers a lesson.


    Zhang Ren''s eyes fell on Deng Zhi.


    At the moment, Deng Zhi is a little nervous.


    Because of his affairs, Zhang Ren was punished, and even because of his affairs, Lei Tong was killed. Although Deng Zhi didn''t feel the slightest guilt about Lei Tong''s death, and even felt cheerful, he was not sure about Zhang Ren''s attitude for a moment.So standing in front of Zhang Ren, I feel very uneasy.


    Zhang Ren stares at Deng Zhi, observes Deng Zhi''s manner, and can roughly judge Deng Zhi''s inner thoughts. He says with a straight face: "Deng Zhi, you don''t have to worry. It''s none of your business today. "


    Deng Zhi said: "general Lei was punished. Deng Zhi should remember today''s lesson."


    Zhang Ren Dao: "as a captain in the army, Lei Tong has been killed now. No one is in charge of his army for the time being. You have won the championship and won the first place bravely. Your Highness has bestowed you as Marquis of the army. You will be promoted to a higher rank to serve as a captain in charge of Lei Tong''s army. "


    "General Xie!"


    Deng Zhi said: "Deng Zhiding will live up to the high expectations of the general, and will definitely order the officers and men in the army to forbid them."


    Zhang Ren listened and nodded slightly.


    It seems that Deng Zhi understood his intention.


    Lei Tong used to be a captain in charge of the army. Even if Lei Tong is arrogant and domineering, even if he has ulterior motives, he may not have no confidants. Therefore, there must be people loyal to Lei Tong among his soldiers.


    When Lei Tong died because of Deng Zhi, Deng Zhi suddenly took office. If he wants to take charge of the soldiers under Lei Tong''s command, some of his soldiers are likely to be unconvinced. This is the problem Deng Zhi has to solve.


    This is also Zhang Ren''s test.


    Deng Zhi replied that it was his reply to Zhang Ren to ask the officers and soldiers to forbid him.


    This is Zhang Ren''s praise.


    Zhang Ren thought about it and then said, "Your Highness is very appreciative of you. You are now in the eyes of your highness. Under such a premise, as long as you make achievements, you will be able to make progress. Work hard. I''m looking forward to your rising in the army and becoming a new star of the younger generation. "


    Deng Zhi said: "Deng Zhi will do his best to live up to the high expectations of his highness and general."


    Zhang Ren patted Deng Zhi on the shoulder and took him to the place where the Loyalists were. When things like thunder and copper happen, he has to deal with them and beat the soldiers in the army.


    In particular, some generals who once belonged to Liu Zhang needed beating.


    In the afternoon, it was all over.


    All soldiers, all back.


    When Zhang Xiu had dinner in the family and was walking with Wu in the backyard, Wang Yue rushed in and reported: "Your Highness, general Gan and General Chen have led the army to withdraw. All the troops led by the two returned to the barracks. Two generals, go to the gate of the prefecture and see your highness. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "please go to the study. I''ll come later."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue went to arrange it immediately.


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu asked Wu to go back to his yard, and he went straight to his study.


    Not long after Zhang Xiugang sat down, Gan Ning and Chen Zhi entered together. Both of them were very tired. From the beginning to the end, they both paid attention to the speed of their troops. After sweeping all sides, they withdrew as quickly as possible.


    So they look very tired.


    Gan Ning said: "Your Highness, the end will sweep the resistance forces in Shu county. The number of soldiers in our army this time is less than 300. From the beginning to the end, there was very little time for confrontation. "


    Chen then said, "the situation we will encounter at the end of the year is not much different. Even after he left Nanjun, he went all the way to Guanghan County, where he passed, he was invincible. Along the way, two groups of bandits and thieves were wiped out, and no more than 100 soldiers were injured. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "since they have been withdrawn, we are ready to attack Bajun. After you have two days off, we will send troops to attack Zhao Wei in Bajun. After Zhao Wei is won, Yizhou will be considered as the most stable state. "


    For Zhang Xiu, Yizhou has a vast territory.


    Not only Shu County, Guanghan County, Ba County, Hanzhong and other places, these are the places where most of the Han people live. In addition, Yizhou also has Yueyi county and Yike County in the south, where the barbarians live.


    These also need to be cleaned up.


    Two days later, Zhang Xiu led the army to set out. However, Zhang Xiu said that she led all the troops to leave. In fact, she left Zhang''s regular army in Chengdu to deal with the unexpected situation.

 Chapter 829

    Bajun County, Jiangzhou county.


    As the governing body of Bajun, it is located in the south of Bajun.


    Today, Zhao Wei lives in Jiangzhou. While Liu Zhang and Zhang Xiu are fighting, he constantly recruits troops. In a short time, he forcibly recruits more than 20000 soldiers.


    In addition, Zhao Wei kept hoarding food and weapons to cope with the war.


    Today, Zhao Wei calls himself king of Ba.


    Yiying''s food and clothing were all arranged by Wang Jue. Not only that, Zhao Wei also recruited many concubines to enrich the palace of King Taba, so as to carry on the family line.


    Zhao Wei''s bawangfu is located in the north of the city.


    Most of the time, Zhao Wei was in the government office, either dealing with government affairs or making people in the backyard.


    In the backyard, in the room.


    Chi Chi Chi voice, constantly from the room.


    A middle-aged man with rough appearance, sharp eyebrows and eyes, a pair of triangular eyes, is constantly creating people. The atmosphere in the room is beautiful and enchanting.


    Outside the room, there was an attendant standing.


    There was a trace of anxiety on the waiter''s face, but he listened to the creaking sound of the bed in the room, but he did not dare to speak, so he had to wait.


    It''s easy to be killed to disturb Zhao Wei at this time.


    After a moment, the sound ends.


    The inner servant said, "king, two generals Pang le and Li Yi want to see you."


    "Please


    In the room, a slightly tired voice came out.


    I leave in a hurry to inform Pang le and Li Yi. These two men are the generals under Zhao Wei''s command and can be regarded as the right and left arms. Today, both of them are in armor, but they are worried.


    They stood in the hall, pacing back and forth.


    Not long after that, footsteps came from outside the hall, but Zhao Wei strode into the hall in his splendid clothes.


    After sitting down, Zhao Wei opened his door to the mountain and said, "you two have come to see our king, but what''s the matter in the army?"


    Pang Le took the initiative to say: "Your Highness, just got the news, Zhang Xiu has already sent 100000 soldiers from Chengdu to Bajun. Now this news has been thoroughly spread in Jiangzhou county. It''s not only the people''s will, but also the military''s will. All the soldiers in the army are terrified. "


    Li Yi then said: "in addition, since some time ago, throughout Jiangzhou and even Bajun, countless people have said that his Highness has been overcharging, and that he does not care about the difficulties of people''s livelihood. On the contrary, there are countless people touting Zhang Xiu, saying how good Zhang Xiu is. They are all pedantic people. Under the influence of countless public opinions, the people are talking about it now. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhao Wei''s face was very cold.


    His face was cold, and he said in a deep voice: "there must be someone named Zhang Xiu in Jiangzhou county. You must strictly control the people''s access in Jiangzhou county. You must carefully check to ensure that no one will enter the city. "


    "Here it is


    Pang le and Li Yi answer.


    Immediately, Pang Le zhengse way: "now Zhang Xiu led the army to kill, what should we do?"


    Zhao Wei ordered: "come, please Shen Cui come to discuss the matter."


    Shen Cui was Zhao Wei''s former military adviser. Now, he is appointed by Zhao Wei as the Prime Minister of the state of Ba to deal with the affairs of the state of Ba. But in fact, the area controlled by Zhao Wei, that is, the southern part of Bajun and most of the northern part, is under Yan Yan''s control.


    Soon, Shen Cui entered.


    Shen Cui is in her early 40s. She has a good appearance and is quite famous. He was wearing a broad collar shirt and a Jin Xian crown. When he saw Zhao Wei, he bowed himself and said, "I''ll see your highness at your humble post."


    Zhao Wei waved his hand and said, "prime minister, now Zhang Xiu''s army is coming. How are you going to prepare?"


    Previously, Shen Cui put forward measures to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just that there''s been no news.


    On Shen Cui''s face, she was calm and confident, and said, "Your Highness, Nanman has answered a letter a few days ago. Today''s Nanman Wang mengmastiff has promised to attack Chengdu. "


    "In particular, Meng Huo, the son of Meng mastiff, the king of Nanman, is a young, warm-blooded man, ready to fight Zhang Xiu. It is said that Meng Huo is very brave. He heard that Zhang Xiu is very powerful and clamors to fight with him. "


    "Nanman king is preparing to send troops. In addition, the rest of the man Wang will also respond to send troops to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    Shen Cui said: "I promise Meng mastiff that as long as we don''t lose Zhang Xiu, we will share Yizhou with them. These barbarians who are hiding in the mountains have never worn royal clothes, never eaten delicacies, never lived in Qionglouyuyu. They are willing to send troops. "


    "Well done!"


    When Zhao Wei heard this, he had a smile on his face.


    He looked at Pang le and Li Yi and said, "Pang le and Li Yi, do you hear me? The barbarians in Yizhou gather tens of thousands of people, and they are good at fighting. If they go out, we will be sure to win. "


    Pang le and Li Yi looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    "Ha ha ha..."When Zhao Wei heard this, he was smiling.


    Immediately, Zhao Wei said: "prime minister, Yan Yan, do you have any news back?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    Shen Cui shook her head and said, "Yan Yan is a man who lives in Hanchang County, but I don''t know how he thinks about it. What''s the significance of Liu Zhang''s adherence to Hanchang County after his death? "


    Zhao Wei snorted and said, "this damned Yan is really ignorant of current affairs. After blocking Zhang Xiu''s army, we''ll clean up Yan Yan. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Shen Cui replied.


    Zhao Wei waved his hand and said, "the army of Zhang Xiu is going to Jiangzhou. Defensive equipment, weapons and grain must be well prepared and must not be slack. "


    "Here it is


    Pang le and Li Yi speak at the same time.


    "Step on it! Step on


    Just at this time, a servant rushed in and reported: "Your Majesty, madam Xiang is not well. It''s very uncomfortable. Please go there."


    Mrs. Xiang is a concubine of Zhao Wei.


    This is Zhao Wei''s favorite concubine.


    This woman is Zhao Wei''s new recruit, nearly 20 years old, was born graceful, especially good at the bottom of the bed, let Zhao Wei very like. Just so, Mrs. Xiang became Zhao Wei''s favorite concubine.


    As soon as Zhao Wei heard this, he showed an eager look on his face and quickly waved his hand to let Shen Cui, Pang le and Li Yi step down. In a hurry, he was already going to the back yard.


    After Shen Cui left first, Pang le and Li Yi also left the palace.


    Standing at the door, Pang le and Li Yi look at each other. Pang Le sighs: "Lao Li, you say king, in the face of Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, even if Nanman helps, can you stop Zhang Xiu?"


    "Hard!"


    Li Yi shook his head and said, "the southern barbarians are going straight to Chengdu at most. They can''t come to Bajun. This is far away, but not near. Even if the southern barbarians sent troops, it was of little use. What''s more, nowadays, the king is almost addicted to women. Alas, the hero Tomb of the beauty nest, a woman, has occupied the king. "


    Pang Le sighed: "what can we do now? It''s a tough situation! "


    Li Yi shook his head and said, "it''s just, it''s just, if you don''t talk about it, it''s sad to mention it. Let''s go, let''s go and have a drink and get drunk. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Pang Le''s face was helpless.


    They rode on horseback and soon left the palace and went to Pangle''s mansion.

 Chapter 830

    Ba County, Hanchang county.


    This is the place where Yan Yan sits. Now, Yan Yan is in her early 40s, with black hair and dignified appearance. He is located in Hanchang County, and has more than 20000 elite troops under his command, which can be called powerful.


    During Yan Yan''s stay in Hanchang County, he restrained his soldiers and kept them safe. Not only that, his soldiers stationed in Hanchang County, but also took part in farming to be self-sufficient and ensure sufficient food.


    Just like this, Yan Yan has been based on Hanchang county.


    If only relying on Chengdu''s food supply, Yan Yan would not have been able to persist until now.


    But Liu Zhang died and Zhang Ren was demoted.


    Yizhou is already the Yizhou of Zhang Xiu, no longer the former Yizhou. Even Yan Yan''s soldiers, because of Liu Zhang''s death, because of the collapse of Yizhou, the morale of the army also appeared turbulence.


    In the barracks, the Chinese army has big accounts.


    Yan Yan is dealing with military affairs.


    To deal with military affairs is actually a trivial matter in the army. For example, there are soldiers fighting in the army. For example, there are soldiers who are not under control. Even more, it is the question of where they will go after Liu Zhang''s death.


    Small as it is, it is complicated.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the camp, the voice of a soldier sounded.


    Yan Yan said, "come in!"


    The curtain of the barracks door was lifted. After the soldiers entered, they bowed and said, "general, there''s Zhao Wei''s envoy coming."


    "Bring it in!"


    Yan Yan after hearing, command a.


    Yan Yan was extremely angry at Zhao Wei''s being crowned king.


    If his previous task was not to take charge of Hanchang county and prevent Zhang Xiu''s army from going south from Micang mountain or Zhang Lu, he would certainly attack Zhao Wei.


    Zhao Wei, who dares to make trouble, should be killed.


    Soon, Zhao Wei''s envoys strode into the camp. The envoy held his head high and threw his voice on the ground: "Song Yan, envoy of King Ba, has met general Yan."


    Yan Yan said, "tell me, what''s the matter with Zhao Wei."


    Song Yan zhengse way: "Your Highness sent down, intended to attract general Yan. Liu Zhang is weak and incompetent, and now he has died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. General Yan''s insistence on Liu Zhang is useless. Even if general Yan wanted to avenge Liu Zhang, he had to rely on his Highness''s strength. As long as general Yan is willing to surrender, his highness is willing to avenge Liu Zhang. "


    "Ha ha..."


    Yan Yan heard it, but she sneered.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    He stroked his beard under his jaw and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu killed the Lord, but Zhao Wei didn''t want to kill the Lord either. He just didn''t have enough strength and was banished to Jiangzhou. Song Yan, don''t talk about Zhao Wei so brilliantly. People like Zhao Wei are just villains. What''s more, today''s Zhao Wei is about to face Zhang Xiu''s attack, and Zhao Wei can''t protect himself. "


    Song Yan said: "general Yan Miao Yi."


    Yan Yan said, "what''s your opinion?"


    Song Yan held his head high, with a confident look, and said: "under the current situation, even if Zhang Xiu kills her, it''s not enough to be afraid. It''s not difficult for your highness to resist Zhang Xiu. "


    "What''s more, his Highness has already sent people to Nanman to ask Wang mengmastiff to send troops. Besides, there were other barbarians. Zhang Xiu devoted all her forces to attack Bajun. The rear area was empty, and the southern barbarians attacked. Zhang Xiu''s rear area was turbulent, so she was bound to withdraw. "


    "At that time, the Lord will take advantage of the situation to pursue, and Zhang Xiu will be defeated."


    After a pause, song Yan continued: "this is Yizhou, this is Bajun, not a flat place outside. In the territory of Yizhou, even if Zhang Xiu had a large number of troops and a strong influence. But if he does not understand the local situation, he will surely lose. "


    Yan Yan listened with a sneer.


    It seems that Zhang Xiu won''t fight in Yizhou, but how did Zhang Xiu win in Hanzhong?


    How did Chengdu win?


    Yan Yan didn''t think Zhao Wei could resist, not to mention that Zhao Wei himself was a betrayer of Liu Zhang. When he met song Yan, he just wanted to see what means Zhao Wei had.


    Now, that''s all.


    Yan Yan''s big sleeve brushed and said, "go back. Zhao Wei wants to surrender himself. It''s impossible."


    "You..."


    Song Yan was very angry.


    He tried his best to persuade Yan Yan, but he didn''t expect that Yan Yan was indifferent or unwilling to surrender after he said something.


    Song Yan threatened: "Yan Yan, do you really want to compete with your highness? You are in Hanchang county. You can''t stand alone. If you really want to compete with your highness, then you will be doomed. "


    "Somebody


    Yan Yan said.


    A soldier entered, Yan Yan said: "break song Yan''s arm, I want to see how Zhao Wei will attack me when he goes back."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers will start at once.


    Song Yan said loudly that the two armies did not kill the emissary and wanted to resist, but Yan Yan ignored him. He never paid any attention to song Yan and let the soldiers fight."Chaka!"


    A crisp ring, song Yan left arm, bone fracture.


    "Ah


    The shrill cry came from Song Yan''s mouth. Song Yan''s face is full of ferocity and pain. He looks at Yan Yan, and his eyes are full of fear and fear.


    He didn''t expect that Yan Yan was so overbearing that he said he didn''t want to fight.


    Yan Yan light way: "Song Yan, what else to say?"


    "You..."


    Song Yan opened his mouth and was ready to speak, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back. Originally, he wanted to put cruel words, but in front of Yan Yan, he thought of Yan Yan''s cruel words just now. Once he put cruel words now, I''m afraid Yan Yan will still do it.


    "Goodbye!"


    Song Yan said no more and turned to leave.


    This time, Yan Yan did not stop, let song Yan leave. He wants to see what Zhao Wei dares to do with song Yan when he comes back to Jiangzhou county with his injuries. Yan Yan has not paid attention to Zhao Wei.


    Less than a quarter of an hour after Song Yan left, another soldier came in and said, "general, another man has come outside the camp. He claims to represent Zhang Xiu, king of Qin. He has come to meet the general."


    When the soldiers spoke, there was a trace of awe in their tone.


    This is different from previous reports.


    Previously, the soldiers said that Zhao Wei''s people came, but they didn''t appreciate them at all. But the soldiers were awed by Zhang Xiu, the king of Qin, because of the great disparity between Zhang Xiu and Zhao Wei.


    Yan Yan thought for a moment, and then said, "please come in!"


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Not long after, I saw a middle-aged man in black, tall and thin. After striding in, he bowed and said, "I''ve met general Yan


    His name is Wei Ji.


    He is a native of Hanchang county. He is also a Ranger. He is a chivalrous man with a warm heart.


    And Wei Ji has a good hand and a smart mind.


    Just like this, Wei Ji can be the person in charge of the royal guards in Hanchang county. He got the command from Wang Yue to surrender Yan Yan, so he came to the barracks to see Yan Yan in person.


    Yan Yan knows the royal guards, and knows that this is the most important organization under Zhang Xiu''s command, which can inquire about information and haunt. Yan Yan, with a pale face, said, "what can I do for you when you come to see me?"


    Wei Ji zhengse way: "down, is the order of the king of Qin, specially to recruit general Yan, please general Yan submit to his highness."


    Yan Yan said, "what if I don''t obey?"


    Yandun continued to understand your reputation. You, Wei Ji, are originally from Hanchang county. As a Ranger, you are good at chivalry and justice. Unexpectedly, you are from the royal guards. "


    Wei Ji said, "the general is wrong."


    Yan Yan said: "you haven''t said that if I don''t obey, what will the king of Qin do to me? Or are you going to kill me yourself? "

 Chapter 831

    Wei Ji chuckled and said: "after the news was sent to Bajun, in Guanghan County, the royal guards met Zhang Xiu''s army. This time, Zhang Xiu set out from Chengdu and went north to Guanghan county. Then she went east along Guanghan county and was ready to enter Ba County.


    After Wang Yue received the news from the royal guards, he quickly presented it to Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu finished reading it, he showed a smile on his face and said, "Wang Yue, the leader of the royal guards in Hanchang County, Wei Ji is very good. He has convinced Yan Yan to surrender. However, Yan Yan''s condition is to let me go in person. When we have eliminated Zhao Wei, we will go north to Hanchang county. "


    Wang Yue said: "Wei Ji is really smart, smooth and persistent."


    Zhang Xiu said: "send a letter to Wei Ji, Yan Yan''s request, the king agreed."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded immediately.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition, there is another piece of news, that is, Yan Yan said that Zhao Wei, together with the southern barbarians, wanted to attack Chengdu. You send a message to Zhang Yan, who is left behind, to make him ready to fight with the southern barbarians. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu induced: "in addition, tell the royal guards in Jiangzhou county the news that Yan Yan is willing to surrender, and let them take advantage of it to further attack Zhao Wei."


    Wang Yue said, "I understand your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Wang Yue quickly arranged to spread all the news. Zhang Xiu''s army, however, was still on its way to Jiangzhou county.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is not difficult to wipe out Zhao Wei, but it takes some time.


    Moreover, this time through the encirclement and suppression of Zhao Wei, the southern barbarians were brought out. For Zhang Xiu, it is also excellent to solve the crisis of the southern barbarians when Zhao Wei''s troubles are solved.


    It''s killing two birds with one stone.

 Chapter 832

    Jiangzhou county.


    South of the city, in an ordinary house. This house seems to be very ordinary, not luxurious, not magnificent, but in the house, there are three steps, one post, five steps, one sentry, very strict.


    This is Dudley''s house.


    Du Lifu was born in a poor family. His parents died in his early years. He was well-known among Rangers in Jiangzhou county.


    In particular, although Du Lifu was a knight errant, he kept his promise and could not catch up with his words.


    It''s very reliable.


    When Wang Yue''s royal guards developed into Jiangzhou County, he recruited Du Lifu. Although Du Lifu was still a Ranger in name, he was actually the leader of Jiangzhou royal guards.


    In the study, Du Lifu is processing the news.


    Now Zhang Xiu is going to attack Jiangzhou County, and the whole county has become the place of the storm. So now, he is busy, collecting all kinds of news all day long, and sending all kinds of news back to Wang Yue.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Du Lifu''s study is generally not allowed to enter without permission, unless it is with Du Lifu''s permission. Because a lot of news will be piled up every day, which is not allowed to be read except by him.


    Even if he read the news every day and burned many files after processing, there will still be a lot of news coming back every day.


    Dudley said, "come in!"


    The door creaked, and a middle-aged man in black, with a solemn face, quickly entered and bowed, "my Lord, I just received a letter from Mr. Wang."


    "Express up!"


    As soon as dooliffe heard this, he immediately gave orders.


    Wang Yue''s letter, that''s the most important thing. He wanted to check it immediately.


    The royal guards in black handed the letter to Du Lifu. After receiving it, Du Lifu waved his hand and asked people to step back. He opened the envelope, took out the letter and scanned it quickly. When he finished, he looked surprised.


    Yan Yan is obedient.


    This is great news.


    Earlier, Wang Yue sent a letter asking him to prepare for the rebellion against some of Zhao Wei''s men. Although Du Lifu had news of the killing of Zhang Xiu''s army, although he kept spreading news, which made the people talk about it and made the army under Zhao Wei panic, in fact, it was still not enough.


    After all, it''s not enough to crush Zhao Wei.


    But now, it''s different.


    Not only did Yan resist the attack in Chengdu, but some even returned to Chengdu. Under this premise, it is almost impossible for Zhao Wei to win.


    Du Lifu said, "come on


    Immediately, the housekeeper came in and bowed himself to say, "what''s your command?"


    "Prepare the carriage, I''m going to visit Pangle''s house," said dolif


    "Here it is


    The Butler turned and stepped down.


    Du Lifu has been in Jiangzhou county and knows Pang le and Li Yi. In private, the two men had talked about the war between Zhao Wei and Zhang Xiu many times. They thought Zhao Wei would be defeated, so Du Lifu went to visit Pang le.


    If there is no news of Yan Yan and Nan man, Du Lifu is on the safe side and will not go to see people.


    But now he''s sure.


    After Du Lifu left, he took the carriage path to the outside of Pangle mansion. Soon after he handed over his name, a servant led him in. In the hall, he saw Pang le.


    With a smile on his face, Du Lifu hugged his fist and said, "Du Lifu, a grass-roots man, has met general Pang."


    Pang Le said: "Mr. Du, you''re welcome. You''re in Jiangzhou county. That''s a famous place."


    Du Lifu said, "the general is wrong."


    Pang Le said, "I don''t know what happened when you came to see Ben Jiang?"


    Du Lifu said: "it''s a matter of confidentiality. Please hold back general pang to prevent the walls from having ears."


    Pang Le''s eyes suddenly narrowed. He looked at Du Lifu.


    However, in the face of Pang Le''s examination, Du Lifu''s face was as usual, without any uneasiness, and he was very confident. A moment later, Pang Le smiles and arranges people to let all the attendants around leave the hall. No one is allowed to come near.


    Pang Le said: "now, it can be said."


    Du Lifu opened the door and said, "general Pang, I''m here on behalf of your royal highness."


    Pang Le''s brows rose.


    He was surprised.


    Unexpectedly, Du Lifu in Jiangzhou is actually Zhang Xiu''s person and works for her.


    Pang Le quickly adjusted his mind and said in a deep voice: "Du Lifu, you dare to report yourself, even to the general''s house. Are you not afraid that the general will arrest you and send you to the king of BA at his command?"


    Du Lifu said: "general Pang''s bluffing means are not very good. First, if general Pang wanted to arrest me, he would not remind me. Second, there are no outsiders in the hall. I, Du Lifu, asked myself that I can still catch the eye with my skill. I''m afraid general Pang''s men have arrived. I''ve taken general Pang. ""Boast!"


    Pang Le snorted.


    With a smile on his face, Du Lifu did not explain anything.


    He doesn''t like Pangle''s martial arts.


    It is easy for Du Lifu to kill Pang le.


    Pang Le didn''t bother about Du Lifu''s martial arts. He laughed and continued: "you, Du Lifu, are here on behalf of the king of Qin. What''s the matter?"


    Du Lifu said: "for the life of general Pang, if general Pang and General Li Yi are determined to fight to the end for Zhao Wei, then the final result will be different."


    Pang Le said: "Zhang Xiu''s army has not entered Bajun. The outcome of this battle is uncertain. What''s more, the reason why the king of BA was able to occupy Jiangzhou was not that he had no strength. "


    Du Lifu said, "Zhao Wei really has no strength."


    After a pause, Du Lifu said: "as one of Zhao Wei''s right-hand men, general Pang should be very clear about Zhao Wei''s strength. It is absolutely impossible for Zhao Wei to compete with the king of Qin. In the current situation, when the two sides go to war, Zhao Wei is just beating the stone with his eggs and looking for his own death. "


    "Of course, I know Zhao Wei''s backhand."


    "It''s just Yan Yan and Nanman Wang."


    Du Lifu looked at Pangle and said with a smile, "general Pang, right?"


    "You, you, how do you know?"


    Pang Le''s face was shocked. It never occurred to him that such a secret was known to Du Lifu. And Du Lifu knows, which means that Zhang Xiu certainly knows.


    It''s not good!


    Originally, Pang Le''s heart didn''t hold much hope for the war between Zhao Wei and Zhang Xiu. In today''s situation, Pang Le''s heart is more worried.


    Du Lifu continued: "first, Yan Yan had never promised Zhao Wei. As a matter of fact, Yan Yan has now been subordinated to the king of Qin, and has become a general of the king''s assembly. "


    "Second, about Nanman Wang mengmastiff, even though he took his army to Chengdu, in fact, the king of Qin had already expected that he had left the most elite army in Chengdu, and now he is only waiting for Nanman Wang''s army to arrive."


    "Everything about Zhao Wei is expected."


    "On the contrary, Zhao Wei is still optimistic. He is still plundering young women among the people, so that countless people in Jiangzhou County complain."


    Du Lifu said: "in fact, even if the king of Qin did not come to Jiangzhou county. In a few years, thousands of people in Jiangzhou county and even Ba County will also resist Zhao Wei. A person who only knows how to bully the people and collect excessive taxes will not last long. "


    Gudong!


    Pang Le swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face was horrified, and he set off a huge wave in his heart.


    What to do?


    All the followers of Zhao Wei have been seen through by Zhang Xiu. Even, Zhang Xiu all made a response. Neither Nanman King nor Yan Yan could help Zhao Wei.


    Zhao Wei will be defeated!


    Du Lifu was very good at observing words and colors. Seeing that Zhao Wei was already frightened, he said in a deep voice: "under the current situation, what is the hesitation of general Pang? Are you willing to die for Zhao Wei. Zhao Wei, who is rampant as soon as he becomes king and can''t even see the current situation clearly, is it worthy of your loyalty? "


    Pang Le said in a deep voice, "but it''s not easy for me to deal with Zhao Wei."


    Du Lifu said: "it is not easy for general pang to deal with Zhao Wei alone, or to kill him. But you have colleagues and friends around you. Li Yi, who has no good impression of Zhao Wei, can lobby him. "


    Pangle looked at dolif.


    For the first time, he thought that Du Lifu was not a simple man, and he had a deep calculation!

 Chapter 833

    Du Lifu''s plan is to use Pangle as a breakthrough to let Pangle break the current situation, but the problem is that Pangle has almost no choice when it comes to his own life.


    To follow Zhao Wei is to wait for death.


    He had to give himself a way to live.


    Therefore, Pangle had to pull Li Yi on board according to Du Lifu''s arrangement.


    Pang Le said in a deep voice, "what if Li Yi doesn''t agree?"


    Du Lifu said: "the relationship between general Pang and Li Yi is quite good. Under such a premise, how could general Pang not understand what General Li thought? It can be said that lobbying Li Yi is extremely steady. "


    Pang Le said with a smile, "OK, I''ll arrange someone to inform Li Yi immediately and invite him to come to the mansion."


    "No problem!"


    Dudley nodded.


    Pang Le immediately arranged to go on, and then he looked at Du Lifu and said, "Mr. Du, to be honest, since we are going to submit to the king of Qin. Then, how can we settle down after we are reconciled? "


    "I''m sure it won''t be less powerful than you are now," he said. But in the army, general Pang''s future promotion depends on his own ability. Under the command of the king of Qin, those who are capable go up and those who are weak go down. It is not a place to climb up relations. "


    "I see!"


    Pang Le nodded.


    As long as it''s not lower than the present position, that''s good.


    After a short time, Li Yi entered. He was still in armor. Seeing Pang Le, he said, "old Pang, what''s the important thing for you to invite me here?"


    Pang Le pointed to Du Lifu and said, "I''d like to introduce you to someone. This is..."


    Just then, Li Yi interrupted directly and said, "isn''t this Du Lifu, the most famous ranger in Jiangzhou county? I know him. However, Mr. Du may not know the general. "


    Pang Le said: "wrong. It''s not Du Lifu, the knight errant. It''s Du Lifu, the envoy of the king of Qin."


    Brush!


    Li Yi''s face changed slightly.


    Unexpectedly, it was the envoy of Zhang Xiu, the king of Qin.


    Li Yi''s face was slightly arrogant, and immediately he all converged. He put a smile on his face and said with a smile: "I didn''t expect that Du Lifu was the envoy of the king of Qin. I''ve met Mr. Du


    Du Lifu replied, "General Li, you''re welcome."


    Li Yi lifted up her robe, sat down, looked at Pang Le, and said to Pang Le, "you''ve been talking to Mr. Du for a long time. Now, I''ve just been informed. Have you decided to submit to the king of Qin? "


    Now, that''s what happened.


    There is nothing else.


    So Li Yi opened her mouth and only revealed the bottom of the story, saying that Pang le was obedient.


    Pang Le did not hide it, but said in a deep voice: "yes, I have decided to submit to the king of Qin. Yan Yan, Zhao Wei''s two backers, has already surrendered to the king of Qin, and Chengdu has a large army to resist Nanman. It is impossible for Zhao Wei to fight against the king of Qin. "


    Li Yi looks calm.


    In his heart, he had already decided that Zhao Wei would be defeated. Even if Yan Yan and Nanman Wang mengmastiff became Zhao Wei''s backhand, Zhao Wei could not win.


    This is Li Yi''s judgment.


    Pang Le continued: "I have made a decision. Now it''s your turn. Our two brothers always advance and retreat together. I hope that you can join me and we will be obedient to the king of Qin. "


    "No problem, I agree."


    Li Yi didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    "Good!"


    When Pang Le heard that, his face was full of praise, and he said, "in that case, let''s talk about how to deal with Zhao Wei. Zhao Wei, Shen Cui and others are determined to fight against the king of Qin. What can we do to complete the battle and completely solve the problems of Zhao Wei, Shen Cui and others? "


    "You two, I have a problem," he said


    "Mr. Du, please say it


    Pang le and Li Yi almost answered in unison.


    Du Lifu said, "are you going to imprison Zhao Wei or kill him?"


    Pang Le said, "what''s the difference?"


    Du Lifu said: "the imprisonment of Zhao Wei means that the army of the king of Qin will not only accept your surrender when they arrive. Similarly, he will accept Zhao Wei''s surrender. "


    "As a result, Zhao Wei was also under the command of the king of Qin. In particular, you two betrayed Zhao Wei and made Zhao Wei lose his throne as king of Ba. "


    Du Lifu said: "do you think Zhao Wei will give up?"


    Pangle clenched his fist.


    Li Mou''s eyes also flashed.


    They had not considered such a problem before, but Du Lifu made it clear when he mentioned it. Of course, they also know that the essence of Du Lifu''s special saying is to kill Zhao Wei with the help of a knife, so as to eradicate the future trouble for Zhang Xiu.


    Let Zhang Xiu kill Zhao Wei, and Pang Le, Li Yi kill Zhao Wei, the result is not the same.Even if a person does all the evil things, he may not have no party members. Although Zhao Wei is confused, it is difficult to guarantee that he has no real confidants and dead men.


    If Zhang Xiu orders to kill Zhao Wei, the hatred will fall on Zhang Xiu.


    If Pang le and Li Yi kill Zhao Wei, the hatred will fall on Pang le and Li Yi. It is true that Zhang Xiu is not afraid of such things, but Du Lifu''s plan is to plan the overall situation and take all the details into consideration.


    Therefore, he specifically mentioned the situation in which Zhao Wei might make a move after his surrender.


    Pang Le gritted his teeth and said, "if that''s the case, then cut the grass to the root."


    Li Yidao: "what Lao Pang said is true."


    Both of them are generals in the army. They are neither bad people nor pure minded people. Once they have made a decision, they are ready to make a move.


    Pang Le once again said, "Mr. Du is far sighted. Do you have any specific strategies?"


    Du Lifu said: "can''t general Pang even think about this matter clearly? To be honest, Zhao Wei''s military power is in your hands. If you two can''t get rid of Zhao Wei, I really doubt your ability. Even after the king of Qin arrived in Jiangzhou County, whether he was willing to reuse you was very mysterious. "


    Pang Leshan smiles and is run by Du Lifu, which is quite embarrassing.


    Li Yi said in a deep voice: "don''t worry, Mr. Du. We promise to kill all the people in Zhao Wei''s family. I promise that there will be no future trouble. "


    Du Lifu said with a smile: "in that case, I''m waiting for the good news from both of you. Today, the king of Qin''s forces are estimated to have entered the territory of Bajun and are on the way to Jiangzhou county. I won''t delay any longer. Goodbye. "


    Pang Le said, "how can I contact Mr. Du?"


    Du Lifu said: "as long as the news of Zhao Wei''s death comes out, I will come to visit him. Then general Pang will know where I live. General Pang, I''m waiting for your good news. "


    With that, Du Lifu left.


    In the hall, only Pang le and Li Yi were left.


    Pang Le said, "my dear brother, what do you think we should do to finish the battle and completely kill the people of Zhao Wei''s family?"


    Li Yi said in a deep voice: "it''s not difficult. Two days later, it''s the day of the court. At that time, all the civil and military generals under Zhao Wei''s command would arrive at bawangfu. "


    "At that time, we will mobilize all the troops to encircle the palace and kill them directly."


    "In this way, all that should be killed can be killed."


    Li Yi said: "if you act alone, you have no chance. Pang, this is our chance. In particular, a soldier in the army is in a panic. As long as we give orders, no one will object. "


    "OK, no problem!"


    Pang Le nodded and agreed with Li Yi''s proposal. Because under the current situation, even Pang Le can''t think of any other more suitable plan. Only in this way can everyone be gathered together.

 Chapter 834

    Two days, fleeting.


    The news of Yan Yan''s surrender to Zhang Xiu has spread in Jiangzhou County these two days.


    The spread of the news was like thunder on the ground, which made all the civil servants and military generals under Zhao Wei start to worry about Zhao Wei''s situation.


    Just like this, Pang le and Li Yi''s quick action drew all the people in the army together.


    However, this is also based on their understanding of the generals in the army.


    They can be drawn together.


    This is the day when Zhao Wei held a court meeting. Now, as the king of Ba, he has all the rules that he should have. Even Zhao Wei''s nine diaos, crowns and robes are well dressed.


    Today, Zhao Wei''s eyes are slightly black. Long time in bed rolling around, he has some exhausted, but it is not that happy.


    What''s more, the servants in the palace will also find some tiger and wolf medicine for him to enjoy himself under the bed. Therefore, Zhao Wei seems to be quite big now. In fact, his feet are flighty and his eyes have lost their sharpness in the past.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is coming, but Zhao Wei is not in a hurry to mobilize the army to resist. He is still mixing up under the bed.


    Now, in the main hall of bawangfu.


    Zhao Wei sat on the throne, and Shen Cui, the prime minister, took the lead. The rest of the civil servants stood on their own.


    But many of the men in the army have not come yet.


    Seeing this, Zhao Wei frowned and scolded: "what''s the matter with the generals like Pang le and Li Yi. Why is it so late today? "


    Zhao Wei himself came very late.


    He has all come, but Pang Le, Li Yi and other generals have not arrived, which makes Zhao Wei''s heart full of anger.


    Shen Cui explained: "King Ba, now Zhang Xiu''s army is approaching. Pang Le, Li Yi and other generals are under great pressure and are busy preparing to resist. So, there may be some delay. "


    Zhao Wei nodded.


    Zhao Wei said in a deep voice, "now that Zhang Xiu is leading the troops to kill us, do you have any countermeasures?"


    Shen Cui stood below and did not speak.


    He was clear about Zhao Wei''s plan. Zhao Wei himself now occupies Jiangzhou county. He is the king of Ba and the local emperor. Let him submit to Zhang Xiu, is to lose everything, this is Zhao Wei does not want.


    After all, it''s the temptation of power.


    But many of the civil servants below were already unable to carry on.


    In particular, Yan Yan has come down to Zhang Xiu.


    "King, I think Zhang Xiucheng is irresistible. Against Zhang Xiu, he will lose in the end. Therefore, it is suggested that the king should be ready to submit to Zhang Xiu for the sake of his clan and country. "


    One of them spoke.


    "Your Majesty, your humble duty is seconded."


    "Today''s situation is extremely rotten. Yan Yan is not willing to help the king. It''s almost impossible to block Zhang Xiu''s army only by our strength. Please think twice."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the civil servants kept on making suggestions.


    Sentence after sentence of words, into Zhao Wei''s ears, extremely harsh, let Zhao Wei''s face, have become ferocious. He didn''t expect that this group of people were so weak that they were ready to surrender to Zhang Xiu before the war.


    The whole nation of Pakistan can surrender to Zhang Xiu, because the treatment of civil and military officials will not change much if they surrender to Zhang Xiu. But Zhao Wei was the only one who knew that he could not surrender.


    Once you surrender, there is nothing.


    This is what Zhao Wei does not want.


    Zhao Wei bit his teeth and stood up. He pulled out his sword and cut it off. With a click, the blade of the sword crossed the table in front of him, and a corner of the table was cut off.


    "No more surrender, no mercy!"


    Zhao Wei''s eyes, with a strong intention to kill, said: "I Zhao Wei, will fight to the end with Zhang Xiu. Your food is your salary, your loyalty. Now that you have taken the king''s salary and enjoyed the good that the king has given you, you shall fulfill your duty for the king. Now, it''s not for you to discuss surrender, it''s for you to discuss the war with Zhang Xiu. "


    "The king Miao Yi!"


    Just then, outside the hall, there was a loud voice.


    Click! Click!


    The sound of armor rubbing.


    The next moment, two burly figures strode into the hall.


    It was Pang le and Li Yi. They took the soldiers to the gate of bawangfu, killed the porter at the gate of bawangfu, and then led the soldiers to the gate of the hall to guard it.


    Pang le and Li Yi stride in, and Pang Le goes ahead. He was dressed in armour, his left hand pressed on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and he was very powerful. Li Yi followed, and it was the same. The two men were fierce and strode to the hall to stand.


    Pang Le looked around, and his eyes finally fell on Zhao Wei.


    Zhao Wei was a little confused at this moment.


    What''s going on?


    Pang le and Li Yi are his absolute confidants and his trusted right-hand men, who run the army for him. But today Pang le and Li Yi''s style surprised him.For a moment, Zhao Wei didn''t understand.


    Shen Cui''s heart suddenly had a bad feeling. She said in a deep voice, "Pang Le, what are you going to do with Li Yi?"


    Pang Le tossed a voice: "of course, it''s to set things right. The king wants to fight with the king of Qin to the death, but he thinks it''s not right. Mo Jiang thinks that what Bai Guan said is very reasonable. So I''m against it. "


    "You, you..."


    Shen Cui bit her teeth and said, "Pang le and Li Yi, do you want to rebel?"


    "Sonorous!"


    A clear sound like the sound of the Dragon came out, Li Yi stepped forward. He had a long sword in his hand, and it came out with one. There was a flash of light, and Li Yi''s sword penetrated into Shen Cui''s chest.


    Poof!


    The sword was drawn out and blood spattered.


    Shen Cui covered her chest, and her body was shaking like a pendulum. He wanted to open his mouth to scold, but when the words came to his mouth, he was filled with blood, and his mouth was just making a sound.


    Plop!!


    Shen Cui lost her center of gravity and fell to the ground. Her body twitched twice. In a twinkling, she lost her breath.


    "You, you, are you going to rebel?"


    Zhao Wei was so scared that he gave a pep talk and took two steps back. Immediately, Zhao Wei suddenly opened his voice and roared, "help me, help me. Some traitors are making trouble. Come and help


    He has no choice.


    At this time, Zhao Wei''s face was full of panic and fear, and he was extremely afraid of death. Not long after he became king, he just began to enjoy the beauty of the world and didn''t want to die like this.


    Pang Le said in a deep voice: "King Ba, do you think someone will come to save you at this time? Now, the whole bawangfu is under the control of Li Yi and I. Now you are empty and nobody wants to work for you. "


    "Don''t kill me, I surrender!"


    Qin Wei said, "I don''t want to surrender for King Zhao. You don''t want to kill me. I''m willing to cooperate. "


    He just wants to live first.


    As long as he survives, he can enjoy it and get revenge.


    There is no need to worry about firewood.


    "It''s late!"


    Pang Le snorted. Without any pity, he took the sword and killed him. As Pang Le came forward, he drew his sword out of its sheath and penetrated Zhao Wei''s chest with a sharp point.


    Zhao Wei screamed.


    After the heart was punctured, the blood spattered, the body twitched a few times, and with a plop, Zhao Wei fell to the ground. Pang le and Li Yi each commit suicide. They quickly take over the overall situation and deal with the people who should be killed.


    For both of them, killing is a normal thing, there is no difficulty.

 Chapter 835

    In June, the weather gets hotter and hotter.


    In June of last year, the army led by Zhang Xiu entered Yizhou. After a year, Zhang Xiu has already won Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang. Now it is just around the corner to sweep Yizhou.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu has entered Jiangzhou county and is heading for Jiangzhou county. When we went to Jiangzhou County, we had already heard from the royal guards. Du Lifu, the Royal Guard of Jiangzhou County, rebelled against Pang le and Li Yi, and Pang le and Li Yi killed Zhao Wei and other main fighters.


    Now, Pang le and Li Yi are waiting for Zhang Xiu''s army to arrive in the county, willing to surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu is very happy with the news.


    It''s an excellent thing to take Jiangzhou and solve Zhao Wei''s threat without a fight. Zhang Xiu is also generous with the contribution of the royal guards, which makes Wang Yue reward Du Lifu.


    Now the division of the royal guards is becoming more and more clear.


    At the beginning, the more the royal guards were in charge, although there were royal guards in each county, the official positions were not clear. But now, Zhang Xiu gradually arranged according to the official positions of the royal guards in the later Ming Dynasty.


    The officials of the royal guards are under the jurisdiction of one level at a time, which makes the royal guards a huge but tight organization.


    Today''s royal guards are quite powerful.


    In fact, the strength of the royal guards is also based on the emperor''s trust. Losing this, the royal guards lose their foundation, so Zhang Xiu doesn''t worry about the royal guards becoming bigger.


    Throughout the Ming Dynasty, there was almost no time for the royal guards. On the contrary, there were too many powerful officials in the eunuch''s organization, and even many eunuchs controlled the East and West chambers.


    Zhang Xiu''s army rushed all the way to the county.


    Today''s Jiangzhou county has lost its former prosperity. The reason is that during his stay in Jiangzhou County, Zhao Wei increased the taxes of the people and made it more difficult for businessmen to do business, which made many businessmen leave.


    In addition, Zhao Wei constantly selected women to rush into the harem, which added to the burden of the people. So when Zhao Wei was killed, countless people clapped their hands to celebrate his death.


    The gate of the county.


    Pang Le, Li Yi led the army, and the rest of the officials, ready to meet Zhang Xiu.


    In addition, Du Lifu was on the side.


    The royal guards belonging to Du Lifu are not exposed. Du Lifu is the only one who comes.


    Time goes by.


    It''s getting hotter in the middle of the day.


    The summer cicadas on both sides of the road are already chirping, which makes people irritable.


    No matter Pang Le, Li Yi, or Du Lifu, their backs were covered with sweat and their inner shirts were wet. However, no one complained and tired, waiting patiently.


    "Here it is


    Suddenly, someone called out.


    With this cry, all the people who had been so sleepy and tired from the sun were excited. They all looked forward quickly, staring at the official road ahead.


    On the official road ahead, a large army is coming fast.


    The cavalry at the front is as powerful as a tiger. The horse''s hooves trample on the ground, splashing dust all over the ground. Dense cavalry running forward, such as black clouds pressing City, it seems to suffocate.


    Pang le and Li see the difference, there is a touch of shock in their eyes.


    What a strong army.


    Both of them were soldiers, both of them came from the army.


    Whether the army is strong or not can be distinguished at a glance. When the cavalry array, followed by Zhang Xiu led the army. Wearing a black robe, Zhang Xiu rode slowly on her way.


    Behind him were the following armies.


    When Zhang Xiu is less than 30 steps away from the county seat, Pang le and Li Yi look at each other. They take civil and military officials to greet each other in person, and Pang Le holds a brocade box in his hand.


    When approaching Zhang Xiu, Pang Le, Li Yi and others kneel down to salute her.


    Pang Le opened the brocade box and said, "tell the king of Qin that Zhao Wei, the traitor, has been the first. One of them, the crown and the seal ribbon, are all in the brocade box. Please refer them to the king of Qin. "


    Zhang Xiu sweeps her eyes and nods slightly. She is picked up by her own person.


    For Pang le and Li Yi, he had nothing to blame or harsh. After praising them, he ordered: "enter the city!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, Zhang Renxian took the loyal army into the city. In addition, Zhang Ren arranged another person to take over the military power of Pangle and Li Yi. After taking control of Jiangzhou County, Zhang Xiu entered the city and went to bawangfu.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Pang le and Li Yi. She appoints Pang Le as general Hengbo and Li Yi as general Fubo, and arranges them to Zhang Ren''s loyal army.


    It is certainly impossible for such two men to form an army alone. Zhang Ren is a great general in Yizhou. If Zhang Ren were to take charge of Pang Le, Li Yi and others, he would be able to convince the public.Pang le and Li Yi have no opinions. After all, Zhang Ren has enough prestige in Yizhou.


    All of a sudden, Pang Le said, "King Qin, in Zhao Wei''s bawangfu, there are many women he collected. There are more than 80 people, all of them are young women of less than 20 years old. After Zhao Wei was killed, all the women stayed for the time being, waiting for the disposal of the king of Qin. "


    The hot-blooded youth loves women.


    Pang Le wants to give these women to Zhang Xiu to please her.


    But after hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "Sima Yi!"


    "Yes


    Sima Yi stood up and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "all the women seized by Zhao Wei were sent home. In addition, a certain amount of compensation should be given. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded directly.


    Pang Le smiles when he hears it.


    His intention is to please Zhang Xiu, did not expect Zhang Xiu directly dismissed all the women.


    Zhang Xiu glances at Pang le. Although he likes beautiful women, he is not the one who can''t walk when he sees them. The women around Zhang Xiu, such as Daqiao, Xiaoqiao and Caojie, are excellent.


    In front of Zhu Yu, Zhang Xiu is not hungry.


    Zhang Xiu dealt with a lot of things, and then let the people back down. Now, after taking Jiangzhou County, it is easy to control Bajun.


    Zhang Xiu plans to rest in Jiangzhou County for two days. On the one hand, Zhang Ren will digest Pangle''s and Li Yi''s troops; on the other hand, she will adjust the policies of Jiangzhou county and even Ba County to facilitate the resumption of production.


    Two days, fleeting.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu rearranged the magistrate of Jiangzhou county and left.


    Zhang Xiu mobilized the army to leave and took all the troops. All the way north, I''m going to Hanchang county to meet Yan Yan. Compared with Pang le and Li Yi, Yan Yan is the real general.


    Yan Yan can be entrusted with an important task.


    The army went all the way north, because many of them were mountain roads. Although the roads were not as steep as Jianmen pass, they also took time. In July, the army led by Zhang Xiu entered Hanchang county.


    In July, the weather is getting colder.


    The soldiers on the way are a little better. They are not as hot as before.


    After entering the territory of Hanchang County, Zhang Xiu''s army got the news from the royal guards that Wang mengmastiff, a Nanman, was approaching Chengdu with more than 40000 Nanman people.


    However, when Meng mastiff met Zhang Yan''s regular army, the two sides directly confronted each other. Zhang Yan led the army to defeat the barbarians and won a great victory. The army led by Zhang Ya decapitated more than 6000 people and captured more than 3000 people. When the rest of the barbarians were defeated, they all retreated.


    Chengdu has not been affected.


    This situation, originally in Zhang Xiu''s expectation, after all, Zhang jaw is also a fierce general who is good at fighting.

 Chapter 836

    Hanchang County, city gate.


    Yan Yan is now leading the soldiers and officials of Hanchang county to wait outside the South Gate of Hanchang county. Because Yan Yan has been informed that Zhang Xiu''s army is less than half an hour away from the county seat of Hanchang county.


    It should be less than a quarter of an hour now.


    Yan Yan was even more surprised at Zhang Xiu''s capture of Jiangzhou county. Zhang Xiu''s people easily rebelled against Pang le and Li Yi, and then killed Zhao Wei and other rioters with a knife.


    Yan Yan is waiting, time passes by.


    Suddenly, Yan Yan looked forward. When he saw an army on the official road in the distance, he saw the endless banners fluttering in the wind.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu!


    Yan Yan is ready to wait.


    Yan Yan knows Zhang Xiu''s deeds. Zhang Xiu rose in Nanyang at the age of weak crown. She fought against Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, killed Liu Biao and defeated Cao Liu one by one.


    In his heart, he also wants to see Zhang Xiu, who is famous all over the world.


    When it doesn''t take long, the distance gets closer.


    Yan Yan has been able to see clearly the situation of Zhang Xiu''s army. His eyes fall on the front, the young man who straddles on a black horse, wears white clothes and a long crown.


    Even if Yan Yan has never seen Zhang Xiu, he can judge at a glance that this is Zhang Xiu.


    Yan Yan''s heart is filled with emotion.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu.


    At this age, he has been in charge of several states in the world, and he has lived for more than 40 years, but now he is only the prefect of Bajun. Even the prefect of Bajun is not worthy of the name.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than 20 steps, Yan Yan went forward immediately. He came to Zhang Xiu''s body, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fists and said: "Ba Jun Yan, meet the king of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu turned over and got off the horse. He went to Yan Yan and said, "general Yan, please get up!"


    "Thank King Qin."


    Yan Yan''s heart was filled with emotion.


    Zhang Xiu''s style is like flowing clouds and flowing water, which makes her feel good. Yan Yan is not a man who goes around mountains and rivers. He opens his door to the mountains and says, "King Qin, I will be willing to surrender. It''s just that there will be an invitation at the end of the day. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Yan Yan''s eyes flashed a brilliant light, saying: "as we all know, the king of Qin defeated Xu Chu, fought against Dian Wei, and even fought against Lv Bu. His martial arts are unparalleled in the world. Yan Yan dares to ask the king of Qin for advice. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to smile. He believes that Yan Yan has no other idea, because the army is pressing the border. Zhang Xiu really needs to have three strengths and two weaknesses. Yan Yan''s strength is not enough.


    After all, it''s the mind of the martial arts.


    Literature is no first, martial arts is no second.


    Yan Yan heard all kinds of deeds of Zhang Xiu, want to weigh the strength of Zhang Xiu in person.


    "Bold!"


    At this time, Zhang Ren came forward.


    Zhang Ren''s eyes were sharp and said in a deep voice: "Yan Yan, as a general of the first army, how can you commit such a crime?"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "elder martial brother, you don''t have to be hard on me. If Yan Yan wants to challenge me, I will. This battle has nothing to do with the identities of the two sides. It''s just a contest between two armed men. "


    Zhang Ren looks at Yan Yan and shakes his head.


    He hoped Yan Yan would withdraw the challenge. After all, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan knew each other.


    Zhang Ren is clear about Yan Yan''s martial arts. With Yan Yan''s power, let alone challenging Zhang Xiu, he has no chance of winning against Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, Wang Yue and others, let alone Zhang Xiu?


    Yan Yan turned a blind eye.


    The reason why he wants to try embroidery is not only Zhang''s determination but also his determination. If facing his challenge, Zhang Xiu calmly faces it, and will not be angry because of Yan Yan''s challenge, or even move to anger Yan Yan, then Yan Yan will be loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    If Zhang Xiu because of Yan Yan''s challenge, so angry, even angry Yan Yan. Under such a premise, although Yan Yan is obedient, he will not go all out to be loyal. He will choose to protect himself.


    This is Yan Yan''s plan.


    Yan Yan said, "come on, take my knife!"


    In an instant, a soldier handed over a seven foot long knife. The blade is seven feet long and bright, as if there is a stream of autumn water flowing, showing sharp and cold.


    Zhang Xiu smile, a hand, there are soldiers handed overlord gun.


    The two men stood apart from each other.


    This scene has been watched by countless people.


    No matter Zhang Xiu''s soldiers or Yan Yan''s soldiers, they all stare. For the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, Zhang Xiu''s strength has been clear for a long time. They have blind confidence in Zhang Xiu and believe that Zhang Xiu can win steadily.


    Yan Yan''s soldiers are curious.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu, holding a overlord gun, gradually changed her momentum. If we say that previously, when Zhang Xiu was on horseback, he was the leader of the party and the king of Qin.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu''s momentum changed again. She was no longer a monarch''s momentum, but a fierce general who would attack and conquer in the battlefield.The pupil in Yan Yan''s eyes shrank.


    Zhang Xiu''s change surprised him.


    But Yan Yan is also a tiger general in the army, he has no fear. Not only that, his eyes were full of fighting spirit and fighting spirit, and he said, "kill!"


    Finish saying, his hand is inverted to drag a war knife, fast toward Zhang Xiu to rush.


    Zhang Xiu in the face of Yan Yan''s attack, do not hide, Overlord gun bravely up. Saw the gun in the air swept an arc, the next moment, the gun and swung the knife hit together.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of violent impact suddenly sounded.


    Zhang Xiu stood still, unaffected. But Yan Yan, holding a long knife in both hands, pedaled backward and took three steps to stabilize her figure.


    Yan Yan looks at Zhang Xiu with astonished eyes.


    It''s too powerful.


    Under the impact of peiran''s ferocious force, he could not resist. Even, it made him feel desperate.


    Yan Yan is not a loser.


    "Come again!"


    He drank low and rushed to Zhang Xiu again with a long knife.


    But at this time, Zhang Xiu is already out. Zhang Xiu''s speed has been accelerated. In the twinkling of an eye, she kills Yan Yan. When Yan Yan Yan''s long knife comes, Zhang Xiu intercepts him with a gun.


    Weapon impact, Zhang Xiu hand force, swing Yan Yan''s long knife, Overlord gun move with the trend, the overbearing and overbearing swing gun down.


    No fancy moves!


    There is no light skill!


    It''s just a fierce attack. The downfall of the overlord gun, like Optimus Prime collapsed, is to make Yan Yan unavoidable, can only resist forcefully.


    "Dang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The force of hard, fierce and unshaped erupts from the place of impact. This force, like the mountain call tsunami, surging, makes Yan Yan holding the sword hand, has been constantly shudder, the foot is not stable, constantly retreat.


    Zhang Xiu catches up with her gun.


    He swung the overlord gun in his hand, shot across the sky and fell from the air. Yan Yan at the moment, has completely lost the initiative, can not avoid, once again put the knife block.


    "Dang!"


    The second impact came out.


    Yan Yan felt that all the viscera were aching, even the palm and the mouth of the tiger holding the handle of the knife had a slight tear, and his arms were sore and extremely uncomfortable.


    Kick! Kick!


    Yan Yan gritted his teeth and could not control his body. He still kept retreating at his feet.


    This scene shocked countless soldiers under Yan Yan. Because from the beginning to the end, Yan Yan didn''t even do a little bit of attack. He was constantly defeated by Zhang Xiu and was completely crushed.


    Zhang Xiu steps forward again. He arrives at Yan Yan. When the overlord''s gun falls, Yan Yan raises his knife to fight. However, when the overlord''s gun fell in mid air, it suddenly stopped and did not attack again.


    He stood with a pistol and asked, "Yan Yan, do you want to fight again?"


    Yan Yan knelt down on one knee and said, "Yan Yan is willing to bow to the downwind


    Yan Yan at the moment, the heart is no longer a little bit of contest mind. Because just now Zhang Xiu''s one shot, if really shoots down, he will certainly be seriously injured. It''s Zhang Xiu who gets the gun. Otherwise, he will have to be kept alive for ten days and a half months.


    Yan Yan''s soldiers were even more shocked.


    That''s a failure.


    Yan Yan''s martial arts are fierce and invincible. But in front of Zhang Xiu, he is defeated so easily that he can''t resist.

 Chapter 837

    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Yan Yan gets up respectfully, and now he is more convinced of Zhang Xiu. Not only is Zhang Xiu in a high position, but also because Zhang Xiu''s strength far exceeds him.


    Zhang Xiu said: "your original official position was the prefect of Bajun. Although the prefect of Bajun is not worthy of the name, he is also a shepherd. Now that you have surrendered to the king, you have two choices. First, he continued to be the prefect of Bajun and took charge of Bajun; second, he left his post and fought with the king. If you choose between the two, I will follow your decision. "


    Yan Yan is silent.


    Zhang Xiu asked him to make a choice, but as soon as he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he had a preconceived idea and speculated whether Zhang Xiu had any other ideas and whether he would test him.


    This is Yan Yan''s preconceived mind.


    Zhang Xiu put Yan Yan''s look in her eyes, but she didn''t explain it. He has one more advantage than everyone else, that is, foresight. He knows Yan Yan''s ability and personality, Yan Yan has the ability and extremely loyal, he dare to bold appointment.


    Of course, whether Yan Yan is worried or not, he believes that as long as he sees people''s hearts.


    Zhang Xiu did not disturb Yan Yan.


    He waited quietly.


    On the contrary, Zhang Ren, who follows Zhang Xiu, is anxious in his eyes. Zhang Ren and Yan Yan are old acquaintances and have a good relationship. Seeing Yan Yan think, they are eager.


    What''s the point of hesitation?


    To stay in a place is to govern it. As an official, it is difficult to estimate the time it takes to be promoted from a prefect to a censor, or even from a censor to the middle of the court, as a senior member of the court.


    In normal times of peace and prosperity, it is even more difficult for officials to be promoted. Because there are so many places for officials in the world, one radish and one pit. If they want to be promoted, even if they have the ability, they have to have space on them.


    This is the reason why Zhang Ren is anxious for Yan Yan.


    In particular, after Zhang Ren surrendered to Zhang Xiu, he had a very clear understanding of the system under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Most of Zhang Xiu''s subordinates are young people.


    Young people who are extremely smart are in high positions. To make room for them, Yan Yan is still in the center when he is 60 or 70 years old. There is absolutely no place for Yan Yan.


    The vast majority of people who stay in the place are in the place all their lives.


    It''s different in the army.


    In the army in the peaceful and prosperous times, like officialdom, it was a radish and a pit. Now it''s different. There are countless wars to be fought in the world, either against Liu Bei or against Cao Cao. These are real opportunities.


    When the world calms down, they will be rewarded for their meritorious deeds. It''s easy for them to be the main generals who go through life and death, to be the Marquis and the worshippers. They are far more likely to make achievements than civil servants.


    Sima Yi, Pang Tong and others did not speak.


    Everyone was silent.


    After half a sound, Yan Yan said, "King Qin, I''m willing to serve as a general in the army."


    Zhang Xiu said, "you are a smart man."


    Yan Yan smiles. At least he is a man who can govern the place, not a simple warrior. In today''s situation, with Zhang Xiu''s side, there is a chance to make contributions.


    "Enter the city!" said Zhang Xiu


    "Here it is


    Yan Yan should hold her fist.


    With Yan Yan leading the way, the army entered the city and went straight into Hanchang county. Under Yan Yan''s administration, Hanchang county has abundant people, and people come and go in Hanchang County, which is quite lively.


    The whole Ba County is sparsely populated, with many high mountains, numerous hills and dense forests. In addition to many barbarians living in the mountains, most of the people live in relatively flat places.


    Entering the city, Yan Yan''s army was scattered and merged into the various armies. Yan Yan as a general, under the command of Zhang Xiu as a general, but now, he does not belong to any army, directly by Zhang Xiu''s dispatch.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    After dealing with all kinds of things, Zhang Xiu left Fazheng alone.


    FA Zhengdao said, "Your Highness, I don''t know what you want to tell me."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Fazheng and said: "Xiaozhi, Yanyan left the post of prefect of Bajun. Now the post of prefect of Bajun is short of time and space."


    "From Shu county to Ba County, we first came to Jiangzhou county. And then all the way from Jiangzhou county to Hanchang county. Generally speaking, people in Bajun do not worry about food and clothing. "


    "After all, there are not many natural disasters."


    "In fact, the life of the people in Bajun is not good enough, far from being rich."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the most important thing is that roads are blocked and it is difficult to get between different places. Such a Bajun is not my ideal Bajun. It needs further development. "


    FA Zheng listens to Zhang Xiu''s words and moves in his heart.


    Could it be that Zhang Xiu wanted him to be the prefect of Bajun, otherwise he would not say so.


    Fazheng didn''t say anything for the moment, but Zhang Xiu continued: "at the beginning, I considered that Xu Shu would transfer officials from the Ministry of officials to take office. But after thinking about it, I denied it. ""First, to govern Bajun and make Bajun change, we must have people who are familiar with the situation of Yizhou. Only such people can know how to apply the right medicine to the case. "


    "Second, the people who come here may not be able to govern."


    "Third, the Bajun I want is not a development in the ordinary sense, it is not a Bajun where the people are rich and don''t worry about food and drink. The Bajun I want can become the banner of Yizhou and even extend in all directions. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "can you do it?"


    FA Zhengdao said, "I''m in a humble position."


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, Fazheng did not refuse. He used to be an unimportant military officer under Liu Zhang. Now he has a chance to become a prefect.


    In particular, the law is under the command of Zhang Xiu, is to join the midway. Even because of his operation, Zhang Song turned over to Zhang Xiu, which reduced the difficulty of attacking Yizhou.


    In fact, his merits are far from enough.


    Fazheng did not have the same foundation as Gan Ning and Xu Shu. After all, Xu Shu and others joined Zhang Xiu''s command early. They wanted to be qualified, capable and meritorious.


    However, he has nothing, so he is willing to work in local areas.


    To sharpen oneself.


    After listening to Fazheng''s reply, Zhang Xiu praised him and said, "you can''t work in a local place all the time. How long will it take you to run Bajun? "


    On hearing this, Fazheng said, "I will report back to your highness. It will take three years for me to be humble."


    His heart is even more joyful.


    As a civil servant, Fazheng knows that under normal circumstances, people on the ruling side spend almost most of their time in the same place or in a flat tone.


    It is not easy for civil servants to be promoted.


    But he''s different.


    He entered Zhang Xiu''s field of vision, and even Zhang Xiu asked himself when he wanted to govern Bajun. The implication is that he managed Bajun well, and Zhang Xiu would transfer him from Bajun and entrust him with an important task.


    This means that France will not be in Bajun for long.


    The premise is that Fazheng can make achievements. If the Falun is in the local area, it has been unknown and can''t make achievements. On the contrary, if she is in the mire of Bajun, Zhang Xiu can''t be promoted to Falun.


    It depends on one''s ability.


    Zhang xiudao said: "you need three years. I will give you three years. Three years later, the king came to Bajun for inspection. I hope that the people of Bajun will know the honor and disgrace and will not worry about food and clothing. The most important thing is that Ba County can no longer be the same as it is now. It must have developed waterways and be accessible in all directions. "


    Fazheng said: "humble duty, obey your orders!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you should think about the way you govern the place. In addition, if you have any requirements, just look for the incoming governor of Yizhou, Shi Guoyuan, who will try his best to meet your requirements. "


    "Here it is


    Fazheng answered again.


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu waves her hand, and Fazheng turns around and retreats.


    When Fazheng withdrew, he was already thinking about how to open up the situation in Bajun after taking office. When Fazheng just walked out of the barracks, he saw a soldier come forward and said, "Mr. Fazheng, general Zhang Ren, please go."


    "I see."


    Fazheng nodded and said, "lead the way ahead."


    "Here it is


    The soldier bowed down and went to Zhang Ren''s camp with Fazheng.

 Chapter 838

    Fazheng entered Zhang Ren''s camp, in which there was not only Zhang Ren, but also Yan Yan who had just returned to Zhang Xiu.


    These three people are from Yizhou.


    FA Zheng looked at Zhang Ren and Yan Yan with a modest face and said, "I''ve met General Zhang and general Yan!"


    When Fazheng was in Yizhou, his official position was much lower than Zhang Ren and Yan Yan. Although nowadays, Fazheng is Zhang Xiu''s confidant as the master book, Fazheng''s mentality has never changed.


    He''s still him.


    It will not become rampant just because it gains power.


    Zhang Renxiao said: "general Yan, as I said, Xiaozhi is not a man who forgets his righteousness at the expense of profit and becomes powerful. He is now the master of his Highness''s books. He has great power and has never held airs. "


    Yan Yan said: "General Zhang''s eyes are burning. I admire him."


    After sitting down, Fazheng said slowly, "General Zhang, Fazheng has not been in a high position. If you rise to a high position and become an important person, you may be gone with the wind. At that time, it could be rampant. "


    Zhang Ren stroked his beard with a smile.


    Fazheng, this is a self blacked word. He appreciates Fazheng very much. When he was under Liu Zhang''s command, he knew that the French and the Zhengs were both civil and military. They could not only govern the local areas, but also give advice to March and fight.


    He has a good relationship with Fazheng.


    Yan Yan also nodded slightly.


    Yan Yan is no longer young. He is more open-minded and can see through a person.


    In front of the FA Zheng, Yan Yan is also praise.


    Zhang Ren said: "all three of us used to work under Liu Zhang. Now, they work together for his highness, and they are colleagues again. Come on, let''s have a drink each and celebrate the reunion. "


    "Please


    Zhang Ren holds up the wine bottle and respects Fazheng and Yanyan from afar.


    "Please


    Fazheng and Yanyan speak at the same time.


    After a glass of wine, Zhang continued: "speaking, your highness asked where Yan Yan was going. At first, I was worried. After all, Yan Yan, you are not close to your highness. Once you really stay here, it will be difficult to transfer out in your life. "


    Yan Yan said, "I''ve saved myself. I''m a general, but I''ll stay in the army."


    "You are sure to be reused," Zhang said


    Yan Yan said: "don''t worry, see how your highness arranges."


    Fazheng also comforted Yan Yan. Then he changed the subject and said, "well, after general Yan left office, I became the prefect of Bajun. Your highness just talked to me and appointed me as the prefect of Bajun. "


    Zhang Ren brightened his eyes and said, "Congratulations Xiaozhi, you are the one your highness relies on. Now you are appointed as the prefect of a county by your highness. Obviously, you want to experience in the local area. Once you''ve made achievements, you can go straight to the center, and it''s just around the corner. "


    FA Zhengdao said: "General Zhang''s praise is wrong!"


    After a pause, Fazheng looked at Yan Yan and said, "I know something about Bajun. But general Yan has been in Bajun for so many years, and he is more familiar with the situation of Bajun. Please give me some advice. "


    Yan Yan said, "I can''t give you any advice, but I have a piece of news here, which is sure to be useful to you. Previously, due to the war and the turbulent situation in Yizhou, there has been no arrangement. "


    Fazheng said, "what''s the matter?"


    Yan Yan sat upright and said, "as far as I know, the rich people in the world, even the ordinary people, like to use coal and stone for heating in the cold winter."


    "The main coal is from Nanyang County."


    "I bought Nanyang''s coal and stone for observation, which is quite good. Half a year ago, I led the army to encircle the bandits. I happened to find such coal and stone in Ba County, that is, in Hanchang county. "


    "The quality of this coal is almost the same."


    Yan Yan said: "because Zhao Wei was in Jiangzhou at that time, and he was worried that Hanzhong would be attacked in the north, so he had not dealt with it. Since Xiaozhi is the prefect, he can start to arrange it. "


    "Today, the demand for coal and stone is growing."


    "We can''t govern Bajun without enough money. But with the coal and stone of Hanchang County, it''s a sharp weapon. You can not only pay more taxes, but also develop the local economy. "


    "You have a cornucopia. Its specific location, in the west of Hanchang County, about thirty miles in a mountain. If you dig everywhere, you can mine it. "


    Yan Yan said: "of course, the most important thing is how to sell after mining."


    When Fazheng heard this, he looked happy.


    This is great news.


    Now the main coal and stone are concentrated in Nanyang County. Although there are countless people mining coal and stone all over the world, in fact, most people have doubts about general coal and stone, and most of them use coal and stone from Nanyang County.


    Once Hanchang county produces coal and stone, Ba County will have sufficient financial resources. Even, it can provide many jobs, so that more and more people can enjoy this benefit.


    Fazheng got up, folded his hands, and solemnly said, "general Yan is very kind. Fazheng is very grateful."


    For Fazheng, this is great kindness.Yan Yan got up to return the salute. After sitting down with FA Zheng, he said with a smile: "filial piety is just a small matter. In fact, even if I didn''t mention it, you might find out. "


    "No, it''s not the same."


    Fazheng shook his head and said: "in such a case, with the general''s warning, I have the initiative. I''ve thought about the breakthrough in Bajun before, and that''s the breakthrough. "


    Yan Yan laughed, but didn''t say much.


    All in the wine.


    Three people together, push the cup to hand over the cup, warm conversation, the atmosphere is very warm.


    After a few drinks, Fazheng didn''t delay much. He immediately asked Yan Yan to arrange a guide. Then he took two soldiers with him and rode away from the camp to 30 miles west of Hanchang county.


    Thirty miles doesn''t take long to ride. When Fazheng arrived, he arranged for someone to dig a few hoes and easily dug out the coal and stone in the mountain.


    He has also seen coal and stone. In fact, the coal and stone mined in front of him is not much different from the coal and stone used. Fazheng takes some coal and stone in a bag and returns quickly.


    When we got back to the camp, it was already dark, and it was almost midnight.


    The moon is bright and the stars are few.


    Zhang Xiu had already had a rest. Fazheng was dusty and tired. He didn''t go to see Zhang Xiu and thought about how to use this batch of coal and stone in the camp. As Yizhou belongs to Zhang Xiu, coal and stone from Nanyang County will surely enter Yizhou on a large scale. If he also mines coal and stone, it is easy to cause disputes.


    So Fazheng has some ideas.


    This night, he didn''t sleep much. After daybreak, he washed his cold face and refreshed himself. After breakfast, he went to Zhang Xiu''s camp. When he saw Zhang Xiu, FA Zheng arched his hand and said, "I''ve been humble to FA Zheng. I''ve seen your highness."


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly and said, "you came to the camp early in the morning. What''s the matter?"


    Fazheng said: "there is something in your humble position. Please have a look."


    Zhang Xiu said: "present it!"


    When the law was just in place, the attendant came in with the coal and stone. He personally took it over, handed it to Zhang Xiu''s desk and said, "Your Highness, this is the coal and stone in Hanchang county. Last night, I personally tested it. It''s smoke-free and tasteless. It''s not toxic. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think?"


    Now is the extensive era, coal combustion, just stop here, to extract more minerals, certainly impossible. So when Zhang Xiu saw the coal, "the king approved."


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hesitate, so she directly answered the question.


    On the one hand, even if the mining and selling of coal and stone in Bajun, they have to pay taxes. On the other hand, the competition between the two kinds of coal and stone is better than monopoly and more beneficial to the people. Zhang Xiu did not refuse.


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Fazheng bowed his body to thank him, and his heart was happy.


    With Zhang Xiu''s permission, it means that the development of Ba County will be backed by sufficient money.

 Chapter 839

    Zhang Xiu said, "have you roughly checked the coal and stone reserves in Hanchang county?"


    "No!"


    FA Zheng shook his head and said, "Yan Yan told me the origin of coal and stone in Hanchang county. After he said that, he immediately went to investigate, and then brought back some coal and stone. We haven''t had time to look into the details. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go and have a look at the scene."


    "Here it is


    The law is directly responding to the law.


    Zhang Xiu is willing to see it in person, which is the best result. This is the coal mine that Zhang Xiu went to personally. At that time, Fazheng set up a shop to manage it in the name of the government. No one dared to say anything.


    Even in the face of coal and stone in Nanyang County, he is competitive, which is Fazheng''s plan.


    Zhang Xiu and FA Zheng, together with Wang Yue, Shi a, Deng Zhan and other royal guards, leave the camp and go straight to the location where the coal and stone are.


    The journey of 30 Li didn''t take long for Zhang Xiu and others who were racing all the way. When they arrived at the site, they went straight into the mountain.


    There are not many dense woods in this mountain, and there are many weeds and small trees on the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu came to the coal mining site and looked at it carefully.


    The coal mines in the mountains are very shallow indeed.


    A hoe down, enough to dig out coal and stone, and excellent color.


    After checking, Zhang Xiu changed four positions one after another, all around the neighborhood. After checking every location, it can also be easily dug out.


    Such a situation, Zhang Xiu is happy.


    Now, there is another coal stone.


    When every item comes out, countless people don''t understand it. But with the use of more people, gradually will find a variety of uses. Nowadays, the use of coal and stone is extremely simple, either heating in winter or smelting weapons. As time goes on, Zhang Xiu believes that it will speed up quickly.


    Shia has been following. He''s a bit bored.


    He doesn''t have the energy to do these things.


    I''m not interested.


    He is now Wang Yue''s deputy. What he thinks about in his mind is how to make the royal guards be reused. He had nothing to do. He looked around as he walked down.


    Just in front of him, Fazheng and Zhang Xiu stopped to observe the coal and stone. Wang Yue, Shi a and Deng Zhan also stopped.


    Shi ah looked at the weeds not far away from the road. He didn''t know what he was in a daze.


    All of a sudden, a brilliant light flashed through his eyes. He looked like a spectator. He took three steps forward, squatted down, and waved, "old Deng, come on, you come here."


    "What''s the matter?"


    Deng Zhan went over with some doubts.


    Shia pointed to a plant in front of him and said, "look at this plant, it''s a bit strange."


    Deng Zhan said, "Shi, you are so bored. You are so busy. Even an unknown weed in the mountain can be looked up to. If it were me, I wouldn''t look at it at all. "


    Shia said: "when it''s OK, it''s good to find something to pass the time. Look at the weeds and trees around me. I can name them, but I don''t know them. "


    While they were chatting, Wang Yue came over. When he saw the plant that Shi a was staring at, he slapped Shi a on the back of his head and said, "stupid, I don''t think about the things of the royal guards. I only know how to look at the messy things."


    Shi Ashan smiles.


    But Deng Zhan laughed.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu and FA are preparing to return. Zhang Xiu hears Wang Yue''s words and comes over. But when he saw a plant in front of Shia, his face looked surprised.


    The look in my eyes is even more brilliant.


    Sweet potato seedlings!


    This plant in front of us is not anything else, but the branches and leaves of sweet potato.


    Zhang Xiu learned about sweet potato in later generations.


    It''s really a high-yield crop.


    It''s easy to cultivate, it''s easy to grow, and it''s very productive. However, according to Zhang Xiu''s understanding, sweet potato is not a native product, but a species from South America. In the late Ming Dynasty, sweet potato was introduced into China and gradually popularized.


    Now, what happened in Hanchang county?


    However, Zhang Xiu did not tangle these.


    Just sweet potatoes.


    What''s more, he can come back from later generations. There is a sweet potato seedling in Hanchang County, which is not more strange than his crossing. Zhang Xiu didn''t investigate the reason.


    It doesn''t make sense.


    Anyway, if he saw it, it would be the best to make use of it.


    Because the yield of sweet potato is very high, as long as it is cultivated and then popularized on a large scale, it can play a big role and make countless people no longer hungry.


    For future generations, they don''t worry about food and drink, and they don''t think sweet potato is something rare. But in this era, there is no hybrid rice, no corn, no potatoes, etc., and relying on wheat, rice, corn, etc., is not enough to support the people''s rations.


    Today''s people are not in pursuit of eating well.Just want to have enough.


    Zhang Xiu knew the yield of sweet potato, and her heart was full of passion, but she was a little distracted.


    Fazheng saw that Zhang Xiu was stunned and said, "Your Highness, do you have anything special about this plant for a long time?"


    Zhang Xiu returned to her senses, laughed and said, "heaven helps me, heaven helps me!"


    Fazheng is confused.


    Wang Yue was even more confused.


    Shia blinked. He was not sure why, but he was a little excited. Because he found this plant. Despite the current situation, he did not know what was going on.


    In short, he only knew that Zhang Xiu was very happy, which was enough.


    But see Zhang Xiu squat down, touch sweet potato leaves, that gentle action, as if touch beloved woman general. He said with emotion: "this plant is not simple. I''m afraid it''s the only one in the world. This plant can solve countless people''s stomach problems, make people full and no longer be threatened by hunger. "


    "Ah


    Fazheng was the first to exclaim.


    He looked surprised and said, "Your Highness, can''t it be? It''s impossible for such a plant to solve the problem of food and clothing for people all over the world! I have never seen a plant that can solve the stomach problem of people all over the world. It''s not a supernatural saying. It can keep people from eating. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Xiaozhi, you don''t understand. I don''t blame you. The name of this thing is sweet potato. By August and September, the leaves will turn yellow and mature. His roots, that is, fruits, grow in the soil. They can harvest a lot and yield a lot. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu asked, "in Yizhou, are there any craftsmen who can grow vegetables in greenhouses?"


    Now what Zhang Xiu needs is a greenhouse.


    It''s like a greenhouse. He''s going to start building it. When the sweet potato in front of us matures, we use its rhizome to germinate in the soil, and then begin to cut seedlings and plant them on the ground, so as to produce sweet potato in the way of greenhouse.


    In fact, as early as the Western Han Dynasty, there were shaped greenhouses that could grow off-season vegetables.


    Only at this time, mainly rely on earthworm fire.


    Under this premise, Zhang Xiu with the help of today''s greenhouse, constantly planting sweet potato, making sweet potato growing. It only takes one year for Zhang Xiu to harvest a lot of sweet potatoes. Next year, he will be able to plant them on a large scale without greenhouse.


    "Yes!"


    Fazheng answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go back to the city. You can find all the people for me."


    "Here it is


    Fazheng nodded.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Shi a and said, "Shi a, stay here and watch this sweet potato seedling carefully. In addition, I asked Deng Zhan to stay. Deng Zhan looked around to see if there were such sweet potato seedlings. Take this seriously. If there is a little problem, I will take off your dog''s head. "


    "Here it is


    Shi a responded directly.


    In his heart, however, he wondered whether such a "sweet potato" could really satisfy himself?


    He is skeptical.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at the crowd and saw the expressions of astonishment and even doubt. She didn''t explain anything. Because the more complicated the explanation, the more persuasive it is.


    The party hurried back. Fazheng immediately arranged for people in Hanchang County who could make greenhouses and grow food in them.

 Chapter 840

    Sitting in the tent, Zhang Xiu''s heart is still full of joy.


    In this era, the most fundamental is the people, or the most fundamental is the population. Only with a large population can Zhang Xiu become stronger and stronger.


    If the population is small, even conscription can not be raised, let alone go to war. If the people have enough food and drink, the population will naturally increase.


    The emergence of sweet potato is an opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu is thinking about the follow-up arrangement in her heart. She knows the things to be arranged in her heart.


    While thinking about it, he transcribed all the precautions for planting sweet potato one by one. As a matter of fact, he has only planted sweet potatoes a few times. He doesn''t know much about the habits of sweet potatoes. However, he knows how to plant, how to transplant, when to excavate and the general situation.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s cognition.


    And that''s enough.


    About an hour and a half later, Fazheng returned.


    Fazheng was quite tired at this time. He has been running back and forth since he left the camp yesterday. I didn''t sleep much last night. Today I''m running back and forth. I''m not in a good mood.


    He came back with ten men, all of whom, without exception, were slightly tanned, of medium build, and were in their forties.


    The palm with thick knuckles, the face full of wrinkles, and the white temples reveal the vicissitudes of life after being weathered.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at more than ten people and asked, "can you ten people grow off-season vegetables and build greenhouses?"


    "Yes


    Ten people answered neatly.


    It''s not a difficult thing for them. Because they were in Hanchang County, they were originally working for Yizhou people, and they were specially responsible for building greenhouses and planting winter vegetables.


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you all know how to plant, now you will work for me. It''s getting dark now. It''s not good to go on the road. You''ll have a rest in the barracks and come out of the city with me tomorrow morning. "


    "Here it is


    Ten farmers answered.


    To them, it''s like a dream.


    They are farmers, the most common people. Originally, it was the life of facing the Loess and back to the sky all day, but now, the king of Qin took a fancy to it, and everyone''s heart was very excited.


    Fazheng took the people down to rest.


    The next morning, early in the morning, Zhang Xiu took everyone to leave for the location of sweet potato seedlings in the West.


    The journey is much slower.


    The reason is very simple. The people in charge of farming don''t know how to ride a horse. They can only ride a carriage.


    When Zhang Xiu and his party arrived, it was almost noon. Deng Zhan and Shi a were wilting. They had to stay here for the rest of the day, even at night, and had nothing to do. It was really boring.


    Two people see Zhang Xiu came, quickly welcomed up.


    Zhang Xiu led everyone to the sweet potato seedling and said in a deep voice: "what you need to do now is to serve this sweet potato seedling well. When it grows up and matures, you can use its fruit to plant in the greenhouse. It is estimated that it will be more than two months before maturity. "


    People look at sweet potato seedlings, some puzzled.


    This scene is beyond their expectation, because they have never seen such seedlings in their whole life. They really don''t understand what kind of fruit these seedlings can produce.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at everyone and asked, "are there any of you who know Chinese characters?"


    "Yes!"


    Of all the people, the oldest one came forward.


    He is nearly 50 years old, and even has some rickets on his back. That cheek, full of years left behind the wind and frost, a fold formed a gully.


    His name is Qin Ji. He is from Hanchang county.


    Qin Ji bowed her back slightly, slightly uneasy, and said, "little old Qin Ji, meet your highness. The little old man has read books, so he knows the characters. "


    Zhang Xiu took out a book from her sleeve and said, "this book is about planting and harvesting sweet potatoes. It''s a detailed record one by one. This sweet potato seedling is not vigorous, but only this one, can not be transplanted. When the sweet potatoes are ripe, you dig out the fruits and start planting them in the greenhouse. According to my records, the details are as follows. "


    Qin Ji took it over and quickly browsed it.


    He looked at a general, solemn way: "Your Highness, little old son will go all out."


    Zhang xiudao said: "as long as you do this thing well and plant it, I will give you a generous reward. Even if I can''t give you a marquis, after large-scale cultivation, everyone will be rewarded with a thousand gold. In addition, I have given you official posts to enable you to be officials. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Qin Ji was excited when he heard that.


    He went straight to his knees, and the rest of the people went down.


    They are the most common people. They know some greenhouse planting and some skills. In fact, they are still the most common people, and have no special ability.One thousand gold is not one thousand taels of gold.


    But for ordinary people like Qin Ji, a thousand dollars is also a windfall.


    They have earned a lifetime, have a hard life, and have never seen a thousand gold. If you can get a thousand gold, it''s a windfall. It can even make your family carefree. In particular, they can be officials.


    This is the most exciting.


    The thousands of years of history of the state run through the inheritance of official standard from the beginning to the end. No matter what time, being an official means to be prosperous and to be outstanding.


    No matter the size of the official position, to be an official is to be outstanding.


    So Qin Ji and others are very excited.


    Zhang Xiu looked at this matter in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "there is only one sweet potato in this world. You can''t die next. If the sweet potato seedlings die, all of you take off your heads. "


    "Here it is


    Qin Ji and others answered.


    For them, they are all people who have been planting crops for decades. Although they don''t know the habits of sweet potatoes, they can easily support them.


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Qin Ji and others spoke together, and then stood up one by one.


    Their faces are full of bright smiles, and their hearts are very happy. Especially when they look at this sweet potato seedling, their eyes are more intimate than their own sons.


    No son can regenerate, no sweet potato seedling, you can''t be an official, even lose your head.


    Qin Ji suddenly said, "Your Highness, there are still three requests for the little old man."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Qin Ji replied: "first, the construction of greenhouse is not suitable in this area. Because the soil is not good enough. So next, the young man will choose a place far away from here to build a greenhouse


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu talks directly.


    Qin Ji continued: "second, the construction of the greenhouse needs countless money. In addition, the operation and maintenance of the greenhouse needs countless money. In terms of money, I ask the king of Qin to be generous and not to embezzle money. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this matter is in charge of the law. He is the new governor of Bajun. He will not deduct all the money needed for the greenhouse, but will allocate it in full. "


    Qin Ji finally said: "little old man is worried that someone will make trouble. So the third point is to ask the king of Qin to arrange someone to be responsible for protecting our safety, or the safety of greenhouses and sweet potato seedlings. "


    "Shia!"


    Zhang Xiu said directly.


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Shia stepped forward and bowed.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you stay in Hanchang County, take a team of royal guards, stay by Qin Ji''s side, listen to Qin Ji''s dispatch, and be responsible for protecting sweet potato seedlings and the safety near the greenhouse. Remember, if anyone dares to make trouble, there will be no amnesty! After the success of large-scale cultivation of sweet potato seedlings, you can leave Hanchang county and return. "


    "Here it is


    Shi a answers solemnly.


    He now saw Zhang Xiu''s determination, this is iron heart, absolutely can''t have any fault.


    If something goes wrong, you''ll lose your head.


    And he left to protect, it is also a meritorious service.


    Zhang Xiu asks a way: "Qin Ji, can still have other requirements, say together."


    Qin Ji shook his head and said, "report back to the king of Qin, it''s gone. With three guarantees, the little old man and the others will do a good job. If you can''t do it well, I''ll see you. "


    "Very good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval and said, "since you can read, you are the leader. I''m looking forward to your answer. Now you are in charge of everything here. "


    "Here it is


    Qin Ji responded directly.

 Chapter 841

    Zhang Xiu arranged everything properly and did not stay any longer. She left with Fazheng, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan, leaving Qin Ji, Shi a and others at the location of sweet potato seedlings.


    Fazheng rode on his horse with Zhang Xiu, and was not in a hurry.


    suddenly, Fazheng asked, "Your Highness, from the beginning, you said that this sweet potato can solve the problem of hunger in the world. I want to ask, how much is the sweet potato yield per mu? "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it carefully and said, "the yield per mu is about 5000 Jin."


    "Ah


    When Fazheng heard it, he exclaimed.


    Not only that, Wang Yue and the other attendants were all shocked. They all think it''s impossible. There are too many such yields per mu. One mu is worth 5000 Jin. It''s unbelievable.


    There has never been such a large yield of grain in the world.


    Fazheng took a deep breath and asked again, "is that possible, your highness?"


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    Fazheng''s doubt, he can understand, because no one has ever seen sweet potato, they do not know the yield of sweet potato.


    In fact, he didn''t even talk about limits. If the sweet potato harvest is excellent, 5000 Jin per mu is definitely more than that. Because the larger sweet potato, a few Jin.


    Five thousand jin, just in order.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s impossible. There''s no need to argue. Now when you are mining coal, pay more attention to sweet potato. When this sweet potato is ripe, you can roughly infer its yield. In fact, the soil quality of this sweet potato forest is not good. You''ll know when it''s replanted and cultivated on a large scale. "


    FA Zhengdao: "you should do your best to take good care of sweet potato."


    Today''s FA Zheng is full of wild hope.


    He was appointed by Zhang Xiu as the prefect of Bajun county. His first task is to make the people fully fed and clothed. In addition, the development of economy made the whole Ba County prosperous.


    Coal and stone are a source of money under his rule. If sweet potato can solve the problem of people''s livelihood, then his political achievements in Bajun will be around the corner, and even his political achievements will never be worse than Hu Zhao''s.


    Zhang Xiu looks at FA Zheng''s high spirited appearance, with a smile at the corner of her mouth.


    He hoped that Fazheng would achieve something.


    This is also the fundamental purpose of his devolution of Fazheng as an official, hoping that Fazheng can experience himself in the local area, and truly display his ambition in Bajun.


    Back in Hanchang County, Fazheng went directly into the prefecture and became familiar with government affairs.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in Hanchang County for another half a month. During this half a month, Qin Ji and others had chosen the location of the greenhouse, and began to arrange for craftsmen to dig tunnels and bury underground pipes for heating. In addition, the framework of the greenhouse house was constantly built.


    This is a great drain on money.


    However, France is fully supporting it, which is one of his future achievements in the current situation.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay any longer and sent troops to evacuate.


    Next, everything in Bajun was handed over to Fazheng.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to Chengdu again, it was already early August, and the weather was gradually cool and no longer hot. As the heat fades, the sun is no longer hot. At this time, the general direction of Yizhou has been calmed down. As for Qianwei County, Yueyi county and Fuke County in the south, it will take more time to calm down.


    After returning, Zhang Xiu met Zhang Jia and asked about the fighting with the southern barbarians.


    The battle was not fierce.


    Wang mengmastiff is not an ignorant man, on the contrary, he is very cunning. After he brought people into Chengdu, as soon as he saw that something was wrong, he fought with Zhang Ya everywhere and withdrew directly.


    There was no real war between the two sides.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how much do you know about the situation of Nanman Wang Meng mastiff?"


    Zhang chin said: "I have understood everything about Nanman''s going to mengmastiff. Today, the southern barbarians mainly gather in the south of the Yueyi Prefecture


    "Their original habit was to live on the hills, most of them living together. But now they have captured qiongdu County, the seat of Yueyi county. Wang mengmastiff, the southern barbarian, was in qiongdu County, the seat of Yueyi county


    "In addition to Meng mastiff, the rest of the barbarians are also here."


    "For example, among the southern barbarians, there are some who call themselves the king of Duosi, the master of the cave and the king of mulu. Now they also gather in qiongdu county. These people gathered because they heard that the Great Han existed in name but died in reality. There were countless people who called the king emperor, and they were also ready to be king. "


    "Now all the barbarians gather in qiongdu County," Zhang said


    Zhang Xiu laughed and continued: "it seems that after I became king of Qin, not only the princes in the world became emperors, but also the barbarians in the world became kings. However, it is better for us that these Southern barbarians are ready to gather to be king. If they gather together, we will be able to finish the battle and work together to wipe out all the people. "


    "Your Highness is wise," he said


    Zhang xiudao: "the last time Meng mastiff led troops to attack, how many of them?""In fact, there are more than 20000 or 30000 people," Zhang said


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that Meng mastiff are quite cunning. With their strength, there are more than 20000 people. But in the end, we just mobilized more than 20000 people to attack Chengdu. It was just autumn wind, and we didn''t really plan to fight to death. "


    Zhang Maxiao said: "it''s true. Meng mastiff and many barbarians plundered in Chengdu, drove them out and killed more than 2000 people. The rest of them, all of them


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you go to mobilize the army. Next, we will go south to Yueyi county to fight against mengmastiff. I''d like to see if this Meng mastiff still dares to stay after we send troops. "


    "Here it is


    Open your jaw immediately.


    Less than two hours later, Zhang Xiu left Chengdu and went south.


    Now Zhang Xiu is going south, with Zhang''s regular army and Zhang Ren''s loyal army. As for Chen Dao''s Langya camp and Ganning''s liehu army, they don''t stay in Yizhou.


    Zhang Xiu orders Chen Dao and Gan Ning to go back to Chang''an. After all, the situation in Yizhou is calm, and Langya camp and liehu army are not available for the time being.


    Two armies are enough.


    The army marched down to Yueyi county. When Zhang Xiu''s army was on their way, the news spread quickly, and at the fastest speed, it was sent back to qiongdu County in Yueyi county.


    County City, once in the prefecture.


    After all, Yueyi county is not a good place because of its remote terrain.


    However, for Meng mastiff, they mainly live in the mountains, living in thatched houses, and even soil tamping seems to be rare. For Meng mastiff and other southern barbarians, this is already an excellent treatment.


    In the hall, a group of barbarians with braided hair, disheveled hair, coarse linen clothes, and even fur robes and animal skins were sitting in the hall.


    The man above is Meng mastiff.


    In addition, King Duosi, the master of bringing cave, King mulu, Wu Tugu, and some generals of Meng mastiff, including Meng Huo, the son of Meng mastiff, were all present.


    Meng mastiff looked around at everyone and said, "we have discussed the issue of being king for more than a month. You all have different ideas. Simply, I don''t want to be the leader. Whoever you want to come will do it. Damn, it''s so troublesome to discuss a matter. "


    The king of mulu said with a smile, "Mr. Meng mastiff, we don''t mean to oppose you being the king, nor do we mean that we have our own ideas."


    "There is no mutual belonging among our tribes."


    "Now, unification is called Nanman. As the king of man, we all support you. But it''s hard for you to be the king of barbarians all the time. I agree with the previous suggestion, let''s take turns to be the man king. "


    "You have a high prestige. Be the co leader first."


    "Then, the geomantic omen took turns, and the people of our tribes took turns to be Nanman king. Is it better to do so. I didn''t say that I would oppose it, but if you don''t want to, let''s all do it. "


    In the heart of King mulu, there are ideas.


    Meng mastiff snorted and said in a deep voice: "mulu, do you have the strength of the king?"


    "No!"


    The king answered.


    Meng mastiff looked down again and said, "Dosi, do you have the strength of the king?"


    Dorsi said: "the strength of my tribe is not as strong as brother Meng mastiff. But brother mengmastiff, you can''t support us to unite, can you? "


    Brush!


    Meng mastiff''s face changed slightly.


    That''s the truth.


    If his family''s strength, ability pressure everyone, then Meng mastiff now, will not dispute with the public.

 Chapter 842

    Meng Huo was nearly 20 years old, and he was very strong, especially powerful.


    He is a combative man.


    When Meng Huo heard what king Duosi said, he said in a deep voice, "King Duosi, you can''t say that. You fight and fight, and there is no conclusion. In my opinion, just choose the most direct method. "


    "Among the tribes, choose the warriors and let''s fight."


    "To judge the high and low by martial arts."


    Meng Huo said in a deep voice, "we Southern barbarians always respect martial arts. All our tribes have drawn out people to compete with each other. Who is more powerful, as the Communist leader, will be the king of Nanman. "


    King Duosi shook his head and said, "Meng Huo, your proposal is not well considered. In fact, among the southern barbarians, brother Meng mastiff''s tribe is the most powerful. "


    "It''s indisputable."


    "But although brother mengmastiff''s strength is strong, it can''t suppress everyone."


    "I don''t have the power to unify the tribes, so I still think that Fengshui turns around and takes turns as the king of Nanman. What''s more, it has been said before that as the king of Nanman, although he can mobilize the forces of various tribes and caves, in fact, he has to be reasonable. "


    "To choose a Nanman king, in fact, is to have one more person who can coordinate all sides. The existence of Nanman king is for us Nanman people to get along with each other better and to twist into a rope better. "


    "Why does brother Meng mastiff always insist on his own way and want to include everyone?"


    "Want to be the king forever?"


    "If you want to destroy everyone, then everyone will come together against you."


    King Duosi said in a deep voice: "what''s more, you used the name of Nanman king before, and we didn''t say anything. Now, let you be our king. Then, everyone respects you, which is also good for you. "


    "You..."


    Meng mastiff after hearing, frown.


    To control all tribes and unify all forces is the inner thought of Meng mastiff.


    It''s just, he can''t do it.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, outside the hall, a sentry rushed in.


    After the sentry entered, he knelt down on one knee and said, "king, Chengdu has sent back news that the army led by Zhang Xiu is going south to Yueyi county and heading for qiongdu county."


    The facial color of Meng mastiff changed slightly.


    The rest of them, on their rough, dark cheeks, looked dignified and worried.


    Only Meng Huo had a smile on his face.


    Meng Huo always thought that he was not happy with the attack on Chengdu. He didn''t even see Zhang Xiu. Then, they were defeated by Zhang Yan and went back to qiongdu county.


    This made Meng Huo very dissatisfied.


    Meng Huo later learned that Zhang Xiu had won Zhao Wei, and Zhao Wei''s department had killed Zhao Wei and surrendered. For such a situation, Meng Huo simply despised Zhao Wei. He had no ability!


    He was killed by his men.


    Meng Huo stood up and said excitedly: "father, you elders, Zhang Xiu led the troops south, intending to destroy us. Zhang Xiu wants to deal with us. Similarly, we also want to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    "This is our chance."


    "As long as we defeat Zhang Xiu''s army and kill Zhang Xiu, we don''t have to stay in Yueyi County, a remote place. We can go to Chengdu, a more prosperous place."


    "When you go north to Chengdu, you all see the rich people in Chengdu. All of them were dressed in splendid clothes and ate delicacies. On the other hand, some of us are still naked and have no clothes. "


    Meng Huo said aloud: "now, I suggest sending troops to fight Zhang Xiu."


    "Sit down!"


    Meng mastiff heard his son open his mouth and yelled.


    Fighting is not so easy.


    In particular, although Meng mastiff wants to fight with Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t want to attack with his own strength. What''s more, he hopes that all tribes will join hands to attack Zhang Xiu.


    In fact, when Chengdu was attacked before, there were tens of thousands of troops. In fact, only 20000 soldiers were really attacked, and the forces of all parties were very small.


    If all parties spare no effort to send troops, there will be at least 60000 or 70000 men that Meng mastiff can mobilize.


    Meng mastiff looked around the crowd and said, "ladies and gentlemen, now that Zhang Xiu is here, we can''t underestimate her. You all know about Zhang Xiu. This man is hard to deal with. If we don''t pay attention, we are in danger of overturning. "


    Meng Huo retorted: "my father is wrong. Zhang Xiu is very powerful. That''s because he didn''t meet his opponent."


    "Shut up


    Meng mastiff drinks again.


    He didn''t expect his son to be so impulsive.


    Meng Huo also wanted to speak. He could see Meng mastiff''s fierce look. He was helpless. Even though he was indignant, he finally sat down and did not dare to speak again.


    Meng mastiff looked at the others and continued: "everyone, how can we break this situation? If we don''t think about coping strategies, it will be quite dangerous for us. ""In my opinion, it''s not difficult to solve this problem," said King mulu


    Meng mastiff way: "how to say?"


    With a smile, King mulu confidently said, "my people are good at raising poisonous snakes and beasts. At that time, Zhang Xiu will come to kill me, and I will mobilize my beasts, vipers and scorpions to attack. Once the poisonous snake and scorpion enter Zhang Xiu''s army, they will make Zhang Xiu''s camp in chaos. Then, if we mobilize the army to attack, Zhang Xiu''s army will surely be defeated. "


    "Good, good!"


    King dorsi agreed.


    He knew about King mulu. Some poisonous snakes and beasts kept by King mulu were extremely powerful.


    Meng mastiff said: "if we want to fight with Zhang Xiu, we have to attract Zhang Xiu''s army and make Zhang Xiu take the initiative. Then, we can let the poisonous insects and beasts of wood deer attack. The general direction, let''s make a decision. "


    After a pause, Meng mastiff continued: "the direction of the battle has been determined. Next, let''s talk about the issue of our respective troops. How many troops will each send in this war? "


    King mulu said, "my troops are the least among all the people. I have 8000 troops. This number of troops is the limit I can achieve. What''s more, I have to use the beast, scorpion and snake in my hand, and I''m not weak. "


    Meng mastiff said: "yes!"


    King Doris then said, "I''ll give you ten thousand people!"


    "No way!"


    Meng mastiff did not want to think, said: "Duosi, we all know each other''s roots.". When it comes to the war with Zhang Xiu, you only send 10000 people, and you have no sincerity. "


    "How many people can I offer?" said the king


    "Twenty five thousand!"


    Meng mastiff did not want to give a number.


    When King Dosi heard this, he opened his eyes and said, "twenty five thousand, when you are my son''s son, you are all made of mud. You can make it out at will. Well, I can''t give more than 20000 people. "


    "Less!"


    Meng mastiff said: "you can calculate 25000. There are still troops. You give 25000, I give 30000. In addition to the 8000 people of mulu, and the troops of other caves and tribes, such as wutugu, we have gathered 80000 people to fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    King dorsi thought quickly in his heart.


    After all, there are 30000 people in mengmastiff, led by mengmastiff, and even 80000 people, who can fight the first World War.


    Meng mastiff continued: "there is a saying in the Han Dynasty that if there is no skin, there will be no hair. If Zhang Xiu kills us, we all lose. I''m afraid we Nanman will be uprooted. "


    "In this war, we must do our best."


    "As for the Nanman king, I agree with the previous proposal. As the first king of Nanman, I ruled all the tribes of Nanman. Three years later, rotate the rest. "


    "The king of Nanman will change every three years."


    Meng mastiff stares at Duosi and says, "I''ll step back and don''t say anything more about Duosi."


    "OK, no problem!"


    Dorsi King see Meng mastiff concession, heart no longer adhere to.


    Although 25000 troops were mobilized, the main forces of his tribe were mobilized. But in the current situation, let Meng mastiff agree to rotation, he has expectations.


    He was also the king of Nanman one day.


    Meng mastiff and the people discussed the details again. After they discussed all the things properly, they did not delay any more and let the people of all tribes quickly mobilize their forces.


    In less than half a day, Meng mastiff took charge of more than 80000 Nanman elite soldiers from various tribes of Nanman. He left qiongdu County in a mighty way and headed north to meet Zhang Xiu''s army.

 Chapter 843

    Shan county, located in the north of qiongdu County, is on the border with Shu county. The army led by Zhang Xiu moved southward from Chengdu, Shu County, into the territory of Shu county and then into Yueyi county.


    It was a smooth journey down the south.


    The southern barbarians in Yueyi county were mainly concentrated in the south of Yueyi county. Even if the Meng mastiff took over qiongdu county with the people of various tribes, in fact, they only controlled qiongdu county and did not occupy more places.


    Zhang Xiu made a lot of preparations to deal with the southern barbarians. When the army arrived in the county, the news came back that Meng mastiff led the army to the north and had already arrived in the county.


    When Zhang Xiu learned of the news, she did not go south again for the time being.


    It''s good news that southerners are going north.


    In case he goes south again.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu stayed in the county for less than two days. The army led by Meng mastiff has come to the outside of the county. At this moment, Meng mastiff is very confident and has a more proud look on his face.


    Meng mastiff rode forward and said in a loud voice, "where is Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiuli looks at Meng mastiff outside the city on the tower. In front of him, his black hair is braided, one by one on his shoulders, and his neck is covered with animal teeth, which shows the rough and fierce atmosphere.


    This is Meng mastiff.


    Today''s Nanman king.


    Zhang Xiu said: "this king is Zhang Xiu. I heard that Meng mastiff and a group of Southern barbarians are going to be king, and they want to capture Yueyi County, or even go north to Chengdu, Shu county. You are so stupid that you want to go north to Chengdu. You are impatient and anxious to be reincarnated. "


    Meng mastiff said: "it''s not that I''m impatient, it''s you who want to die."


    While Meng mastiff was talking, Meng Huo drove his horse out directly. He looked excited, eyes full of high morale, holding a long knife in his hand, came to the front of the battle, roared: "Zhang Xiu, Meng Huo here, dare to fight?"


    Meng mastiff''s face suddenly changed.


    His eyes were full of anger.


    Meng Huo, the bastard, rushed out again recklessly. But before the two armies, Meng Huo had already rushed out. He could not call Meng Huo back. Once Meng mastiff did so, I''m afraid Meng Huo would no longer be able to stand in the army and win the trust of the southern barbarians.


    Meng Huo has always been a warrior among the southern barbarians, and is the object of worship by countless people. Just in this way, Meng Huo was fascinated by his martial arts and believed that he was invincible.


    He heard that Zhang Xiu was so fierce that he always wanted to fight in his heart and defeat Zhang Xiu to prove himself. Last time he went north to Chengdu with the army, he wanted to fight Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu went to Bajun.


    So much so that his plan failed.


    Now, he has the opportunity to challenge Zhang Xiu and rush out in a hurry.


    At this moment, Meng Huo, holding the knife in his hand, felt that there was endless power, as if he could open mountains. He even felt that he had infinite power to defeat any enemy.


    "Zhang Xiu, can Meng Huo dare to fight here?"


    Meng Huo roared again.


    His voice echoed outside the city.


    As Meng Huo''s voice rang out, the roar continued to spread. More and more southern barbarians kept shouting. In their eyes, there was a look of expectation.


    They look down on the Han people.


    They think they are the best.


    "Your Highness, please fight at the end!"


    Shamoko took the initiative to fight. He was born in wuximan. To this kind of person who wants to challenge Zhang Xiu is a deep contempt, because he does not think that Meng Huo can defeat Zhang Xiu, that is self humiliation.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Meng Huo will fight in person. He will let me go. How can I not satisfy him. This Meng Huo is the son of Meng mastiff. Taking him down is also helpful to this war. "


    Shamocco is a little wilted.


    Zhang Xiu does it in person, so it''s nothing to do with him.


    "Take my gun!"


    Zhang Xiu orders a, from the soldier''s hand took overlord gun, then turned down the castle.


    When Sima Yi and Pang Tong saw this scene, they were not surprised.


    It''s too normal for Zhang Xiu to fight in person.


    Who made Zhang Xiu a military officer?


    Who made Zhang Xiu so skillful?


    Throughout the whole world, Wu Wang sun ce of Jiangdong is very powerful and often goes to battle to kill the enemy himself. Others, such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, mainly relied on their own generals and would not appear in person.


    Creak!!


    The city gate makes a sound, and Zhang Xiu drives her horse to fight.


    After a while, he had already arrived outside the city. Looking at Meng Huo, who was riding the horse and was sure to show his edge, he said, "Meng Huo, if I were you, I would not come out to fight."


    "Why?" Meng Huo asked


    Zhang xiudao said: "your father, Meng mastiff, doesn''t want to be his successor. He is an ignorant man, a simple minded fool who only knows how to fight. He hopes that you have the means to control people. It''s a pity that you rush out directly. Although countless barbarians cheer for you, you will surely be defeated. "Meng Huo''s face changed slightly.


    He has some doubts. How does Zhang Xiu know about him.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu''s news was learned from the business population of the royal guards.


    Nanman people are located in the mountains, and the news is not available, but Nanman people will communicate with merchants and exchange goods. Through the merchants, Zhang Xiu learned a lot of information, and knew the thing between Meng mastiff and Meng Huo.


    Meng Huo snorted and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you want to shake my heart, it''s in vain. Among the southern barbarians, I always advocate the brave. I want to beat you and prove my strength. As long as you are defeated, who dares to say anything. I heard that you are invincible in the Central Plains. Today, I''m going to break your myth. If you say I will be defeated, you will be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "unfortunately, it''s a delusion."


    "You''ll know when you try!"


    Meng Huo patted the horse''s back, and the horse rushed out like an arrow. He straddles on the horse''s back and drags the long sword on the ground. In a twinkling of an eye, he comes to Zhang Xiu''s body and swings the long sword in an instant.


    "Kill


    Meng Huo drank a lot and cut it off.


    Now he is holding the horse''s belly between his legs, standing firmly on the horse''s back, twisting his waist to exert his strength, and breaking out all his strength. If he wants to work hard, he will defeat Zhang Xiu and win the battle.


    Zhang Xiu held up her gun and did not fight back.


    "Dang!"


    The blade fell on the barrel of the gun, sparks splashed, but there was a smile between Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows.


    Meng Huo''s strength is not strong.


    In fact, it is not as powerful as shamoko.


    It is easy for Zhang Xiu to defeat Meng Huo. However, he didn''t do his best at once. Instead, he fought with Meng Huo temporarily to stabilize Meng Huo. At the time of the battle, Zhang Xiuwei retreated a little bit, and he retreated about ten steps in a short time.


    Even the positions of Zhang Xiu and Meng Huo changed. Meng Huo was close to the city wall of Shan county, while Zhang Xiu was close to the Nanman army.


    Under this premise, it is difficult for Meng Huo to retreat.


    His retreat was blocked.


    Meng Huo is attacking vigorously. He doesn''t think about it at all. He is immersed in his own world. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s counterattack is not very fierce, which makes him think that he can defeat Zhang Xiu, so Meng Huo constantly attacks.


    "Dang!"


    Weapons hit again.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Meng Huo had time to breathe and store his strength, she suddenly started to exert her strength, and the overlord''s gun was so powerful that she directly opened Meng Huo''s long knife. Immediately, the overlord gun swung around in the air, with a roaring sound, and smashed at Meng Huo.

 Chapter 844

    Meng Huo and Zhang Xiu fight for a while. He thinks he knows Zhang Xiu''s strength, but he doesn''t think Zhang Xiu is so powerful. So in the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, he still as before, raised the sword to resist.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    In a flash, Meng Huo''s face changed greatly.


    Where the weapons hit, Mars splashed everywhere, and there was even more powerful force, such as surging waves. This force, totally different from before, is indestructible and irresistible.


    The palm of Meng Huo''s hand holding the sword was slightly numb. The horse under his crotch was under the impact. It was Herod''s neighing that kept him steady until he stepped back.


    Meng Huo looked up at Zhang Xiu, and there seemed to be a trace of surprise and incomprehension in his eyes.


    Why?


    Zhang Xiu''s strength, how suddenly strong, even he was faintly unable to resist.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu drinks low. Before Meng Huo has completely stabilized her figure, Zhang Xiu rushes forward in pursuit of the wind at her crotch. In front of Meng Huo, the overlord gun rises with the help of the anti shock force, and then falls quickly in the air.


    This shot is as fast as lightning.


    In the twinkling of an eye, he came to Meng Huo.


    Meng Huo had just stabilized his figure, so he could not escape, let alone evacuate. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, he had to raise his sword again and quickly resist it.


    "Dang!"


    The crash sounded again.


    When Meng Huo held the handle of the knife, the tiger''s mouth was torn and overflowed with red blood. There was pain on his rough cheek, and there was still an incredible look in his eyes.


    Why?


    Zhang Xiu''s strength, suddenly, becomes so overbearing.


    It''s like a different person.


    If the former Zhang Xiu was a sheep, the present Zhang Xiu is definitely a downhill tiger. It was so powerful that he couldn''t resist it.


    If Zhang Xiu showed such strength at the beginning, Meng Huo would not love to fight at all.


    He just retreated.


    But now he has no possibility to retreat, because Zhang Xiu will not give him a chance.


    The sudden change of fighting style is not surprising to all the people under Zhang Xiu''s command. Shamoko, in particular, murmured, "Your Highness is really insidious. No, he is really wise. Your highness must capture Meng Huo alive, otherwise he will not hide himself. Now, Meng Huo can''t do more than three moves. "


    Zhang Ren said: "just Meng Huo, it''s not worth mentioning!"


    The rest of the people looked like they agreed.


    But Meng mastiff frowned in his eyes. Previously, Meng Huo and Zhang Xiu had a close fight. But in today''s situation, it is different. Meng Huo is completely suppressed, and there is no room to fight back.


    The rest of the southern barbarians, who had been shouting before, gradually stopped shouting.


    One by one, staring at the battlefield, everyone has a strange and unexpected look in their eyes.


    Meng Huo played well just now.


    All of a sudden, it''s wilting.


    King mulu said in a deep voice: "Man Wang, I''m afraid Meng Huo can''t resist it. Do you arrange someone to meet you. If he is defeated, even in the hands of Zhang Xiu, it will not be good. "


    Meng mastiff clenched his teeth, thought about it, then said: "in the battle of martial arts, the victory or defeat is a matter of one or two moves. It''s not surprising that Meng Huo was temporarily suppressed. Although my son is temporarily defeated, he may not be really defeated. "


    In his heart, there are still expectations.


    What if Meng Huo wins?


    Unfortunately, Meng Huo''s palms are not only cracked, his arms are weak and his internal organs are shaken, and he is in danger.


    The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is not only fast, but also powerful. It doesn''t give Meng Huo the chance to react and retreat.


    After a shot, Zhang Xiu shot down again.


    His moves are like flowing water without any stagnation. When the overlord gun fell down, it seemed to float lightly without a trace of fireworks. But on Meng Huo''s sword, the power broke out, and the deafening sound came out immediately.


    Meng Huo''s sword could not be grasped any more, so it was knocked out directly. The power of concussion impacted his internal organs, making his Qi and blood disordered. When his throat was sweet, blood flowed out of his mouth and stained the corners of his mouth.


    Meng Huo''s face was pale. At least he was a man who had been in the battlefield for a long time. At the first time, he quickly dodged and sidestepped to avoid the falling overlord gun.


    Zhang Xiu is how fierce, in the hand overlord gun one meal sweeps, the gun barrel sweeps directly to Meng Huo waist.


    "Bang!"


    When the crash broke out.


    Meng Huo''s body was struck by lightning, and even a click came from his waist. He had a few broken ribs around his waist. His body could not be stabilized, so he was directly knocked out and fell down with a plop.


    Meng Huo''s body trembled slightly with pain after he fell from the horse.


    He''s very upset.


    The whole body, there are waves of pain, making him particularly uncomfortable.In his mouth, there was a sound.


    The upper and lower teeth, constantly fighting, is really painful.


    Meng Huo looked up and saw that Zhang Xiu had stopped his horse in front of him. The overlord gun approached Meng Huo and said in a deep voice: "local chicken and tile dog, also proud. If it''s not for the sake of cutting off your retreat, you are in my hands, and I can''t even take three moves. "


    Meng Huo was even more pale.


    At this moment, Meng Huo''s mind was buzzing, and he could not keep calm.


    Lost!


    He failed so simply.


    The curtain fell in the eyes of Meng mastiff, King mulu, King Duosi, and Wu Tugu. They all looked at the scene one by one, with a look of surprise on their faces. No one thought that Meng Huo would be so defeated.


    You know, Meng Huo is the first warrior of Nanman.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, he was completely defeated.


    Meng mastiff''s heart seized, he frowned, heart scolded Meng Huo stupid. Good situation, but Meng Huo just want to go forward to fight, so that now not only injured, but also fell in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    I''m looking for death!


    Meng mastiff heart, is worried.


    If there is no Meng Huo as a hostage, he and Zhang Xiu confrontation, is extremely relaxed, no worries. But now, Meng Huo has become a hostage. How should he face it?


    Zhang xiudao: "Meng mastiff, now Meng Huo is in my hands, you say, what should I do with him?"


    Meng mastiff clenched his teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu, if you dare to kill my son, I will never die with you. The power of Nanman is not something you can judge at will. Now, release my son immediately. I can make up my mind to withdraw now and not fight with you any more. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Meng mastiff said that he would withdraw from the army now, and that he would not fight with Zhang Xiu any more. The meaning of his words seems to be giving to Zhang Xiu, as if to give her benefits, but Zhang Xiu disdains it.


    Zhang Xiu looks cold Su, in the hands of overlord gun up, directly inserted down.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun pierced Meng Huo''s thigh directly.


    "Ah


    The shrill scream came from Meng Huo''s mouth. When he was stabbed in the thigh, he felt that his whole body was trembling. He was so miserable that he could hardly bear it.


    Poof!


    As the tip of the gun was drawn out, blood spattered out.


    Meng Huo is still screaming.


    He fell to the ground and didn''t even have the strength to stand up, because he not only injured his arms, but also his viscera, ribs and thighs. Under such circumstances, he was unable to exert himself and stand up.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Meng mastiff, do you know how to talk to me? Now it is your son Meng Huo who has fallen into the king''s hands. When you speak, be careful. If you don''t pay attention, I''m afraid I''ll also pay little attention. At that time, Meng Huo''s heart will be stabbed with a spear, and he will die. "


    Meng mastiff said: "Zhang Xiu, you want to die!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s mouth rises and her overlord gun falls down again. With a puff, the tip of the gun easily penetrated into Meng Huo''s left thigh and immediately pulled out.


    For a while, the blood flowed.


    Meng Huo screamed again. He looked up a little and saw that his legs were bleeding with pain. He wanted to cry for a moment.


    He regretted it!


    Regret to challenge Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 845

    The expression on Meng mastiff''s face changed again and again.


    There is more pain in my eyes!


    He often scolded Meng Huo, saying that Meng Huo had no brain. But in fact, in the heart of Meng mastiff, he is proud of Meng Huo. The southern barbarians live in the mountains and advocate the brave. Meng Nanlang''s natural brute force convinced him many times.


    This is the pride of Lao Meng''s family.


    Now Meng Huo is Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. For a moment, he has no way to solve it. He did not answer Zhang Xiu''s words for the time being. He looked at Duosi and asked eagerly, "Duosi, you are the wise man in Nanman. My son is taken down. What can I do to save him?"


    "There''s a way!"


    King doth answered in a low voice.


    Meng mastiff was overjoyed and said, "what can I do?"


    King dorsi said, "all the beasts of King mulu are held in the rear of our army. Our intention at the beginning is to retreat after we fight with Zhang Xiu for a while to deal with Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "Now, if you want to save Meng mastiff, you can only stay with Zhang Xiu temporarily. Then, arrange for people to go to the rear and carry a cage with tigers. "


    "Let the king of mulu control the fierce tiger and make him rush out and bite Zhang Xiu."


    "Tiger down the mountain, as fast as lightning."


    King Duosi said: "with the strength of the tiger, it is enough to defeat Zhang Xiu and make Zhang Xiu flee back to the city in a hurry. Of course, if Zhang Xiu can''t escape, or even be bitten to death by a tiger, Zhang Xiu''s army will be defeated. It''s just around the corner for us Nanman to come to Chengdu and control Yizhou. "


    Meng mastiff eyes flashed a light, looking at the king of wood deer, solemnly said: "wood deer, please."


    "No problem!"


    King mulu''s face was full of smiles.


    The beasts under his command are extremely obedient and ferocious. What''s more, he didn''t want to miss the chance to kill Zhang Xiu. As long as he can let his beast kill Zhang Xiu, he has made great achievements.


    With this merit, the position of King man changed three years later. As the man who once killed Zhang Xiu, he had a high prestige among the southern barbarians, so he was the undisputed successor of King man.


    Meng mastiff said: "in that case, you go to arrange, I first drag Zhang Xiu."


    "Good!"


    King mulu turned and left.


    Meng mastiff''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu and asked, "Zhang Xiu, how do you want to let my son go?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "the condition is very simple. As long as you immediately dismount and surrender, and then order all the barbarians to lay down their arms and let the king''s army detain all the southern barbarians, I will not kill Meng Huo, but return Meng Huo to freedom."


    Meng mastiff gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, your conditions are too harsh, I can''t do it. Although I am the king of the southern barbarians, I can only coordinate all parties and order the rest of the southern barbarians to surrender, but I can''t do it at all. You are a very intelligent person and know the situation of barbarians. So, I hope you give me a suitable condition. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    Meng mastiff''s words, from the previous tough, suddenly become so soft, very strange.


    It''s so easy to talk.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t think that an old fox like Meng mastiff will yield to him. Now Meng mastiff do so, certainly do not have the mind, is ready to take back Meng Huo. Zhang Xiu is to change, he would like to see, Meng mastiff what means.


    After all, he won Meng Huo.


    With Meng Huo, Zhang Xiu is not afraid of Meng mastiff and can deal with everything.


    Zhang Xiu said perfunctorily: "since you are Meng mastiff, you can''t make the decision for the whole Nanman. Then change the plan. All the southern barbarians under your command, led by Meng mastiff, surrender. As for the rest of the southern barbarians, they don''t care about it. "


    "It''s not going to work!"


    Meng mastiff shook his head and said: "the king of Qin is a wise man. I must know that if I submit to you now, I will be besieged by other Nanman tribes. At that time, all my Nanman tribe sons will die. "


    "For the sake of Meng Huo, you can''t take the whole tribe together."


    "As long as the king of Qin is willing to release my son Meng Huo, if he wants money, I will give you money, if he wants food, if he wants food, if he wants weapons, I will give you weapons, he only asks the king of Qin to release my son."


    Meng mastiff a look of weeping, said: "Meng Huo, now, is just a young man."


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Meng mastiff, the old fox, is still lying and deliberately procrastinating.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Meng mastiff, the king under the jurisdiction of Yizhou, Liangzhou, Jingzhou and Guanzhong, vast territory, countless money and food, weapons in the warehouse. You want to exchange these for Meng Huo. Do you underestimate the value of Meng Huo. Anyway, Meng Huo is your son and is the successor of Nanman. Can such a person get back money and food? "


    Meng mastiff''s eyes narrowed, but he scolded Zhang Xiu in his heart. Zhang Xiu''s age is not much different from Meng Huo''s, but Zhang Xiu''s mind is extremely meticulous, giving Meng mastiff the general feeling of an old fox.


    Even he found it difficult.Meng mastiff said: "King Qin, what I Meng mastiff can do, I will not refuse. Please don''t put me in a dilemma. The palm and the back of the hand are all meat. How can I choose? "


    He has a sincere manner.


    This kind of situation, falls in Zhang Xiu''s eye, Zhang Xiu heart is sneer.


    Meng mastiff is really hard.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart revolves and constantly makes conditions. However, Meng mastiff can find out the reasons for everything, and she looks like she is in a dilemma. She always lowers her posture and never shows arrogance.


    Soon, a soldier from the rear came to King mulu and whispered a word.


    Mulu king went to mengmastiff''s side, nodded to mengmastiff, said: "tiger has been brought, can be released at any time."


    "Go ahead!"


    Meng mastiff was biting his teeth, and his eyes flashed with light.


    King mulu immediately took out a bell and quickly shook it. In addition, he took out a whistle and kept blowing it. As the sound came out, the soldiers in the rear retreated.


    A tiger with white eyes rushed out directly. It landed on the ground with four claws, roared low in its mouth, and made a rapid sprint. In the twinkling of an eye, he had passed the mengmastiff and went straight to the location of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she suddenly realized.


    This is Meng mastiff''s backhand, he let the beast to attack, intending to kill him.


    Zhang Xiu resolutely turned over and dismounted, patted the horse''s back, and the horse in the crotch quickly retreated. The horses in front of the tiger, not enough to see, and Zhang Xiuli on the ground, carrying the overlord gun, ready.


    He never dodged!


    And never give in.


    The curtain fell on the tower, and shamoko and others were also nervous. After all, it was a beast with white eyes. Shamoke, Zhang Ren, Zhang Ya and others quickly went down to the gate and waited.


    At the same time, Meng mastiff and others saw this, his face showed a wild smile: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, in the face of this beast''s attack, do not hide, you are dead today!"


    "Ding Ling Ling!"


    The bells kept ringing.


    King mulu manipulated the bell, blew the whistle, and kept pushing the beast forward.


    At this moment, even in the eyes of King mulu, there was a look of expectation. He is more confident, because in his tiger attack, there is no one who can resist.


    He will win the battle.


    His tigers are always fighting when they see people on the battlefield and never fail.

 Chapter 846

    "Roar!"


    The tiger with white eyes opened his mouth and roared, with a terrible momentum. His four claws are on the ground, and his limbs work hard. His body is like a hill, and he can jump several feet.


    When less than three Zhang away from Zhang Xiu, the fierce tiger with white forehead and eyes was exposed. It had already jumped up in a hurry to fight against the place where Zhang Xiu was.


    Zhang Xiu has no fear in the face of fierce tiger. The heavy overlord''s gun shook in the air and went up with it. In the face of the fierce tiger, it is more a test of speed.


    Once the speed is a little slow, it will be attacked by a tiger, and it will be extremely difficult at that time.


    So the speed must be fast!


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun not only infused all the strength, but also hit the tiger with the fastest speed.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    The overlord''s gun hit the tiger with white forehead. Although the gun''s strength was strong, the tiger''s copper skin and iron bone fell to the ground with a plop, but it didn''t get hurt. Even after he was injured, he became more ferocious.


    "Roar!"


    The tiger opened its mouth again and roared.


    Especially in the wood deer King''s bell, fierce tiger''s eyes are full of killing, and his mouth is full of blood. It rushed forward again regardless of everything, and rushed to Zhang Xiu in the blink of an eye.


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu gave up her overlord gun. He bravely met up and kicked out!


    "Bang!"


    The paw of his foot was kicked on the tiger''s chest. Under the impact of the brutal force, the tiger fell to the ground again. Zhang Xiu is walking fast, a stride to the tiger, directly sitting on the tiger who is ready to get up.


    Zhang Xiu''s left hand jammed the tiger''s neck, his right hand clenched into a fist, and swung it down.


    Just at this time, the tiger was just about to get up. When its head goes up, Zhang Xiu''s fist is impartial and beats fiercely on the tiger''s skull.


    Bang!!


    There was a dull crash.


    The power is strong and indestructible. Under the impact of this force, the tiger''s head was injured, and suddenly some vertigo, the burst of power dissipated immediately, and his head also dropped.


    After all, tigers are fierce beasts, especially the king of wood deer is still pushing the bell. Even if its neck is jammed by Zhang Xiu''s hand, even if its head is a little dizzy by a blow, the ferocity inside the ferocious animal''s bones erupts, and it roars and stands up again.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say a word, but another blow.


    Bang!!


    The sound of impact, again.


    Tiger''s head after a blow, shaking head, some dizzy. His body was temporarily weak, then he hung down again, and then he struggled to get up again.


    Bang!


    Bang!!


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the sound of crashing kept ringing.


    This fierce tiger with white eyes was always riding on his crotch in front of Zhang Xiu and couldn''t move at all. Even in a short time, Zhang Xiu hammered 18 fists in a row. Under the bombardment of fists, the skull of the tiger with white forehead has been overflowing with blood.


    Under the continuous roar, the tiger''s strength is getting smaller and smaller. Finally, he sobs and has no strength to resist.


    "Die


    Zhang Xiu roars and smashes her fist. This last punch fell, hanging eyes white forehead tiger, no longer breath, body lying on the ground, completely paralyzed.


    I can''t move any more.


    With her own strength, Zhang Xiu killed the tiger, King mulu.


    The curtain fell in the eyes of all the southern barbarians, with wide eyes and shocked faces. Tiger, the beast of King mulu, is extremely fierce.


    Where tigers pass, there are no human beings or animals. But now in Zhang Xiu''s fist, there is no movement.


    "Ding Ling Ling!"


    In his heart, King mulu was eager and kept shaking the bell in his hand to urge tiger to stand up. But after shaking for half a sound, the wrists were sore, the whistle in the mouth was tooting, and both cheeks were sore, but the tiger still didn''t move.


    It''s over!


    The king''s cheek twitched.


    Gudong!


    Meng mastiff to see the tiger was killed scene, but also swallow a mouthful of saliva. When he looked at Zhang Xiu, there was more fear in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu is so terrible.


    He killed a fierce beast with white eyes in three or two. It was not only Meng mastiff who was shocked, but also the whole Nanman people who saw with their own eyes that Zhang Xiu killed the tiger three times, five times and two times.


    "The king of Qin is mighty!"


    Suddenly, there was a cry from the tower. But Pang Tong saw that Zhang Xiu killed the tiger, and suddenly he yelled.


    "The king of Qin is mighty!"


    There were soldiers shouting after them.


    "The king of Qin is mighty!"


    "The king of Qin is mighty!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more Qin soldiers, constantly shouting. The soldiers were excited, and their eyes were even more fanatical. In the eyes of all soldiers, Zhang Xiu was the God of war.Since the rise of Nanyang, Zhang Xiu has fought against countless generals, defeated Xu Chu and Dian Wei, and seriously injured Lv Bu. Now, the soldiers witnessed Zhang Xiu directly killed a tiger, more excited.


    It''s so powerful.


    Cry, like a mighty torrent of steel, straight into the sky. One by one, the soldiers just wanted to kill Cheng and directly kill the southern barbarians. Compared with the fighting spirit of the Qin soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, the southern barbarians are worried.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu. It''s too cruel.


    Meng mastiff took a deep breath, looked at the king of Duosi and asked, "Duosi, you are resourceful. But now, Mu Lu''s eyes were white and he was killed completely. Now, what shall we do? "


    King Duosi shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can''t help it."


    In the face of such a fierce Zhang Xiu, King Duosi continued: "I''m afraid that now, we can only attack the county according to the previous plan, and strive to lead out the army of Zhang Xiu, and then use the beast of King mulu to attack the army of Zhang Xiu, and finally we fight back."


    Meng mastiff said: "but what about my son? If it wasn''t for my son, we could attack now. But my son is still in Zhang Xiu''s hands. "


    Meng Huo, Meng mastiff extremely worried.


    Just now, King Duosi suggested that the beast attack Zhang Xiu, and even let the beast kill Zhang Xiu. But no one thought that Zhang Xiu killed the tiger.


    Now, it''s back to the beginning.


    It also involves Meng Huo''s life, which is unavoidable.


    Zhang Xiu clapped her hands and stood up. Although he hit the tiger with 18 punches in a row, it had no effect on him.


    As soon as he waved, some soldiers rushed up and quickly carried the tiger away.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Meng mastiff again, and said in a deep voice: "Meng mastiff, before you were so soft, you wanted to save your son. But in the end, it was a trick to let King mulu''s tiger kill me. "


    "Now, your plan has failed."


    "You are so perfunctory, Wang. Tell me, what should I do with your son?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll kill him now, or I''ll keep his life. Ah, this man, you''d better not lie at will. Once you lie, you can''t afford the consequences. "


    There was a banter in his eyes.


    He turned over and mounted the horse again, holding the overlord gun again, with an aggressive and sharp air in his eyes.


    Meng mastiff looks at his son lying on the ground. His son''s thigh is pierced and his blood is flowing. Meng mastiff see this situation, breathing is incomparably rapid, hand tightly grasp the reins, that pair of eyes, flashing cold killing.


    If he could kill Zhang Xiu, he would have killed her 80 times.


    But the reality is not.


    Meng mastiff is now in a dilemma.

 Chapter 847

    Meng mastiff saw Zhang Xiu mercilessly poke the gun down, and even saw Zhang Xiu fight a tiger again. He knew that Zhang Xiu was a hard character and was not easy to deal with. Especially before Zhang Xiu attacked the tiger, as soon as Meng mastiff refused, Zhang Xiu poked Meng Huo''s thigh for two shots.


    If he dare to speak freely, Meng Huo will die in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    Meng mastiff heart afraid, asked: "Zhang Xiu, how do you want to be willing to release my son?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is a question for nothing. Previously, I have said countless times, but you have been perfunctory. Now the king''s condition is that you take the southern barbarians under your command and kneel down to surrender in order to save Meng Huo''s life. Otherwise, Meng Huo will die here. "


    Meng mastiff''s face changed again.


    It is obviously impossible for him to surrender.


    No matter what, he can''t surrender. What''s more, although he was the Communist of Nanman, he was known as the king of Nanman. King kemulu, King Dosi and Wu Tugu, as the leaders of Nanman tribe, could not allow him to surrender.


    You can understand it without thinking.


    Meng mastiff did not speak for a moment.


    Just at this time, King Duosi stood up and said: "Zhang Xiu, it''s useless for you to threaten Meng mastiff. Although he is the king of Nanman, he can only coordinate all parties. He can''t represent us. It''s impossible for you to make him surrender with us. "


    Meng mastiff''s eyes brightened.


    Don''t speak on his behalf, in this way, to avoid the embarrassment of his mouth.


    Slowly lift the gun of Zhang Zuixiao up in his hand. This instant, Meng mastiff suddenly anxious, had to open his mouth and roared: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want to do?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "you mengmastiff is the king of Nanman. If you don''t make your stand, they will speak for you. Now, if you don''t want to surrender, I''ll do it again. "


    Meng mastiff heard his teeth cackle.


    What a cruel Zhang Xiu!


    No matter what, he can''t get away with it.


    Meng mastiff looks at Meng Huo, who is lying on the ground, his face is getting more and more pale, and his body is still slightly shaking, clenching his fist. For a while, I didn''t know how to make a choice.


    What should he do?


    Since ancient times, the most sad thing is that white hair people send black hair people.


    Is he going to see off his son?


    Zhang Xiu continued: "have you made a decision? If you don''t surrender now. Next, Meng Huo''s life will be lost. This is your Meng mastiff''s son. He could have lived a carefree life. He was killed because your heart was cold. "


    "You..."


    Meng mastiff biting his teeth, extremely angry.


    Without personal experience, you don''t know the hard choices and pain. Now that he is in it, understanding the pain of the cone is the difficulty of understanding the dilemma.


    Zhang Xiu said aggressively: "I count to ten. If I don''t make up my mind, I''ll kill Meng Huo!"


    "One!"


    Zhang Xiu said!


    "Two!"


    "Three


    Zhang Xiu counting speed, not urgent not slow, Meng mastiff is more and more pain.


    By the time Zhang Xiu counted to eight, Meng mastiff had no more blood color, and one cheek turned pale. He bit his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, if you kill my son, I will kill you. I, Meng mastiff, swear to heaven that if I don''t kill you, I will not be a human being. "


    Knowing that Meng mastiff had made a decision, Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "well, I''ll wait and see."


    Tyrant gun, down.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun easily penetrated Meng Huo''s heart. With the agitation of the gun tip, Meng Huo''s heart was broken, and the red and warm blood was gurgling out, which dyed Meng Huo''s skirt red.


    Meng Huo''s mouth rattled, his body struggled twice, his neck tilted, and he lost his breath.


    Meng Huo, die!


    "Zhang Xiu, damn you!"


    Meng mastiff watched Meng Huo being killed with his own eyes, clenched the reins of his horse and tried to roar. On that cheek of his, blue veins burst up and his eyes were round. His body slightly down, almost hysterical breathing, a pair of eyes with a thick resentment.


    Facing the threat of Meng mastiff, Zhang Xiu said: "in the world, the people who say I should die are not one or two. Many people want me to die. But now, I''m still alive, no one can kill me. Those who are against me are dead one by one. "


    "Kill


    Meng mastiff gave the order.


    With his command, the soldiers under his command quickly launched an attack.


    Zhang Xiu did not delay, turned to withdraw. After entering the city, he returned to the tower. At this time, the dense Southern barbarians began to kill in the direction of the city tower.


    The city wall of the county is not high, less than two feet away. If it were the war in the Central Plains, such a city wall could not be kept because it was too low and not strong enough.


    But this is Shan county, not the Central Plains.


    In particular, Meng mastiff under the command of the southern barbarians, equipment is not good enough. They have simple car crashes, some ladders and railcars, but no more siege weapons.Their weapons, that''s all.


    There were more than 20000 people in this wave of southern barbarian attacks, and some soldiers from various tribes.


    The dense Southern barbarians are getting closer and closer.


    Zhang Xiu looks in her eyes, but there is a cold flash in her eyes. He looked calm, nodded to the side of Zhang jaw, saw Zhang jaw decisively ordered to attack. This battle, is Zhang jaw command, he dispatch archers and catapults for long-range attack. Besides, they poured boiling oil and boiling water on the towers.


    However, the southern barbarians who are close to them have countless deaths and injuries.


    Many southern barbarians attacked the city, but they suffered heavy losses.


    When Zhang Xia commanded the soldiers to resist, he suddenly noticed that the south wind was blowing in the current wind direction, and ordered, "come on, scatter the lime powder."


    At this time, the south wind blows, and as soon as the lime powder is thrown out, it immediately flies out of the city. Dense lime powder spilled into the eyes of the southern barbarians, one by one screamed out.


    The eyeball is more burning and uncomfortable.


    The attack of the southern barbarians was immediately blocked.


    The dense bows and arrows were still coming. For a moment, the southern barbarians couldn''t resist, and there were countless casualties.


    A moment later, many southern barbarians recovered and attacked again. But the previous pause was a huge loss. Even if more and more southern barbarians are killed, the offensive is not strong enough.


    After fighting for a period of time, some Nanman soldiers went up to the city building. In the city building of Kehan County, shamoke, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan were all there. These were all fierce generals who attacked one by one and killed the Nanman people who went up to the city building one by one.


    The city building in the county of Han is not solid.


    However, in the eyes of the southern barbarians, it was as solid as gold and could not be broken at all. Even more and more southern barbarians were killed and injured. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were not injured because they were on the defensive side.


    This curtain falls in the eyes of Meng mastiff, he is more hate.


    Zhang Xiu, damn it!


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    But the current situation, he simply can''t kill up, can''t kill Zhang Xiu. The only way, he can only deploy soldiers, let soldiers attack. As long as we break through the county, Zhang Xiu''s troops are not as many as those under his command. Besides, Zhang nengjun must be able to defeat him.


    "Blow the trumpet and order the soldiers to attack. If you break the city, I will allow all the soldiers to plunder it for three days. "


    Meng mastiff gave the order.


    Although he took the southern barbarian soldiers to plunder in Yueyi County, in fact, Meng mastiff always restrained the soldiers and never allowed them to plunder on such a large scale.


    Now, in order to avenge Meng Huo, he no longer suppresses soldiers. With the order issued, the attacking Nanman soldiers, hearing the news of Meng mastiff, were excited and rushed forward.


    Being able to rob for three days means that they can rob women and money.


    This is their chance.


    "Kill


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    More and more soldiers keep shouting.


    Dense Nanman soldiers move forward, gather under the tower, and constantly climb up the ladder. The curtain fell in Zhang''s eyes, and a chill came from the corner of his mouth, and he ordered: "please fire oil and shoot rocket!"


    With Zhang Ren''s order, there were soldiers on the tower to pour fire oil. The fire oil kept pouring down and falling outside the city tower.


    The fire oil fell on the ground, followed by another rocket.


    In the original three Zhang area outside the city tower, before the arrival of the southern barbarians, Zhang Ya had arranged for people to prepare dry firewood to spread on the ground. No Southern barbarians noticed this scene. Now the fire oil spilled, the rocket shot down, and immediately ignited the fire.


    Moreover, when the kerosene was dumped, a lot of kerosene fell on the soldiers. When the rocket was launched, it hit the soldiers and ignited the fire in an instant.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    The flames of fire snake like, rapid flow, the whole city three Zhang range are caught in the sea of fire.


    Countless Southern barbarians were caught in a fire.

 Chapter 848

    The fire was burning and crackling under the tower.


    Originally, an area under the city building was arranged by Zhang Yan for soldiers, covered with weeds and dead branches. When the southern barbarians attacked, they didn''t find anything wrong. They just felt that the weeds and dead branches outside the castle were not cleaned.


    But now, with the fire burning. These dead branches and weeds are ignited, whistling and burning, and the smoke is billowing. So that in the shortest time, outside the city became a sea of fire.


    The Nanman soldiers howled and struggled and ran back quickly. At the same time, countless Southern barbarians rushed forward in the rear. It was just such a rush that formed a collision.


    Those soldiers on fire, once they ran to the rear, made countless barbarians on fire.


    The attack of the southern barbarians dissipated.


    This curtain fell in Meng mastiff''s eyes, Meng mastiff glared big eyes, his face showed an incredible look.


    Zhang Xiu has such means.


    It''s shocking.


    Meng mastiff frowned and immediately ordered: "summon, let all the soldiers retreat, let them all withdraw."


    "Dang! Dang


    With the sound of the Gong, the attacking Nanman soldiers no longer attacked, but retreated quickly.


    As Rao retreated, countless soldiers were still burning. The fire oil is not as easy to put out as clothes. As long as the clothes are contaminated with kerosene, it is a continuous fire, which is difficult to put out.


    When the fire was burning, what was more terrible was that all the soldiers were flustered, and all of them kept rushing. Many people were trampled to the ground, and subsequent people continued to crash and trample, resulting in countless deaths and injuries.


    Under such circumstances, for a time, Nanman people lost countless.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene on the tower and did not order to pursue it. Because the fight with the southern barbarians has just begun. In particular, the southern barbarians are familiar with the topography of Yueyi County, but Zhang Xiu is not familiar with it.


    If Meng mastiff in the middle of the retreat, the layout of the ambush, may also affect Zhang Xiu''s offensive. In particular, there is the king of wood deer, who is good at driving beasts, which is also a thorny problem.


    Meng mastiff led the troops to withdraw. After the troops withdrew from Liuli Road, he arranged for the soldiers to ask Zhang Xiu if she was coming, but he found that there was no one coming. He felt some regret. If Zhang Xiu comes after him, he can use the beast of King mulu to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    But now, there is no way.


    After Meng mastiff led his troops to withdraw from Liuli Road, the army was temporarily stationed.


    The army encamped and Meng mastiff asked people to count the losses.


    After an inventory, more than 9000 people were damaged by the southern barbarians. There are also many soldiers who have been injured, which can be said to be a huge loss.


    A simple siege cost nearly ten thousand people.


    It''s a huge casualty.


    Meng mastiff''s face is gloomy. When he thinks of his son Meng Huo, who died in Zhang Xiu''s hands, he is even more angry.


    Meng mastiff looked around at the people sitting below and said in a deep voice: "we attack Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning and does not lead troops to pursue. Now, what do you say to do? "


    King Duosi was a wise man in Nanman. He said: "in today''s situation, we must lead out the army of Zhang Xiu. If Zhang Xiu''s army had been entrenched in the city of Cheng county. Well, we can''t do anything about Zhang Xiu. "


    Meng mastiff said: "Zhang Xiu is cunning. It''s absolutely not easy to let him out."


    King mulu answered and said, "in my opinion, we can only attack again. Only by attacking the county seat of Shanxian County can we let Zhang Xiu attack. "


    "Not right!"


    Meng mastiff shook his head and said, "today we are attacking the city of Shan county, and the damage is huge. If we attack Shanxian again, we will lose nearly ten thousand troops, and our strength will be greatly weakened. Are you willing to let all your soldiers die? "


    Wood deer King urn sound urn airway: "in addition to this method, what method?"


    "I have a way!"


    Wu Tu Gu''s face was ferocious and cool.


    Meng mastiff way: "what method?"


    Now that he had gone to the scene, Zhang suddenly said. Let''s arrange soldiers to go around the county, arrest the Han people, coerce the Han people together, and force the Han people to go down to the castle. "


    "I don''t believe it. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu dares to arrange for people to sprinkle lime, kerosene, etc. At that time, if he fought back, the Han people would die. But if he doesn''t stop us, our soldiers will be able to kill the city easily. "


    Wu Tugu clenched his teeth and said, "with our strength, after climbing the city building, it''s easy to seize the county."


    "Wonderful


    Meng mastiff''s face, full of joy.


    Now that he wants revenge, he is completely out of his mind. Not only his soldiers, but also because of his son, died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    If you don''t take revenge, you will swear not to be a man.


    What''s more, Meng mastiff did not pay attention to the Han people. For the southern barbarians like Meng mastiff, the Han people are like leeks. They go out of the mountain to plunder from time to time, so that they can have plenty of food and clothing.King Duosi suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "once you coerce the Han people, treat them like pigs and dogs. Especially in front of Zhang Xiu. Such hatred is deep. I''m afraid it will develop to the point of never ending. "


    "It''s already immortal!"


    Meng mastiff bit his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Dosi, are you not willing to attack Zhang Xiu?"


    King Duosi was in his early 30s, with wise eyes, explained: "Meng mastiff, I didn''t say that I don''t want to attack Zhang Xiu. It''s just that I don''t think it''s proper to take such extreme measures. "


    Meng mastiff said: "I think so!"


    King Duosi took a deep breath and said, "you are the king of Nanman. You insist on arranging soldiers to plunder the Han people. I have no opinion. After all, you are the Communist of Nanman. I will obey your decision. However, I still want to remind you that the consequence of doing so is to lose the most basic morality. If we are defeated, we will be defeated and slaughtered. "


    Meng mastiff said: "we can''t be defeated!"


    King Duosi once again said, "when you face Zhang Xiu today, you are full of confidence. But in the end? Meng mastiff, Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. Don''t be careless. "


    Meng mastiff was angry.


    He swung his hand and slapped it on the desk. His face was fierce and he said in a deep voice: "Dosi, are you going to surrender to Zhang Xiu? In every word you say, you think that Zhang Xiu is invincible and that you can''t deal with Han people. What do you mean


    King Duosi stood up and stroked the goat''s beard. He said in a deep voice, "Meng mastiff, if you lose your mind now because of Meng Huo''s death, then I will no longer take part in the war against Zhang Xiu."


    "You have to be clear that in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with."


    "According to the information we have, Cao Cao, the king of Wei in the Central Plains, and Yuan Shao, the emperor of Jin, were defeated by Zhang Xiu. Together with Zhang Lu and Liu Zhang, they are the defeated generals of Zhang Xiu. "


    "If we want to fight Zhang Xiu, we should be careful."


    "You take my caution as if I''m afraid of Zhang Xiu. You even think that I''m going to surrender to Zhang Xiu. When you say that, are you going to break up two times? "


    "If you say you''re going to break up, I''ll send troops to leave immediately," said King doss


    "You..."


    Meng mastiff heard the king''s words, the original anger, immediately stopped.


    He didn''t want the alliance to fall apart.


    Meng mastiff took a deep breath and said: "Duosi, since we are at war with Zhang Xiu, it''s your death and my death. At this time, scruple this scruple that, is to set a stumbling block. It was precisely because Zhang Xiu was not easy to deal with that he had to use the Han people to clamp him down. If not, how can we defeat Zhang Xiu? "


    After a pause, Meng mastiff continued: "it''s not easy to lure Zhang Xiu out of the city! If Zhang Xiu comes out of the city, he is the best. But if he doesn''t leave the city, he can only use the Han people. "


    Do think see Meng mastiff slightly recovered calm, this just sat down.


    He didn''t talk again.


    Wu Tugu took the words and continued: "if so, it''s settled. Now we will arrange our own soldiers to go around the county to search for the Han people, and then catch them all. "


    "This time, we must let Zhang Xiu repent and know our strength."


    "When the time comes, our army will be at the foot of the city, so we can not attack the city for the time being. We will learn from Zhang Xiu and use the Han people to threaten Zhang Xiu out of the city, just like he threatened manwang."


    "It''s very interesting."


    Wu Tu Gu had expectations in his eyes and said, "think about it, it''s all expectant."


    Meng mastiff also showed a smile on his face and said: "Wu Tu Gu, you should coordinate the deployment of all parties to arrest the Han people. I''ll give you three days to arrest at least one thousand people. Are you sure? "


    "No problem!"


    Wu Tu Gu answers directly.


    He doesn''t think such a thing is a bad thing, and he can take advantage of the opportunity to capture the common people and search for beautiful women. This is a rare opportunity.

 Chapter 849

    On the tower of the city.


    Zhang Xiu is now sitting on the upper floor of the city of chanxian, living in a room in the city. On the one hand, he arranged for the royal guards to inquire about King mulu and the southern barbarians, on the other hand, he was here.


    One day later, the county returned to calm.


    The night was deep.


    The cool moonlight came down, making the night of the whole county hazy.


    When Zhang Xiuzheng was reading, there was a knock on the door outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    Creak!


    The door was pushed open, but Wang entered in a hurry, with a dignified look on his face.


    Zhang Xiu looked up to see Wang Yue and asked, "but what''s the latest news?"


    Wang Yue solemnly said: "during the day today, our spies around the county found that the southern barbarian soldiers were searching for people everywhere. According to the rough statistics of the Sentinels lurking outside the Nanman camp, today''s Nanman soldiers have arrested about 100 people. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu yelled.


    Wang Yue sighed in his heart and continued: "nowadays, there are still many Nanman soldiers who have not returned to the camp and have a rest outside. According to the sentry''s speculation, these people may continue to capture the people in the county after a night''s rest. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face changed again and again, showing a sense of desperation and coldness.


    As soon as he heard Wang Yue''s report, he thought that Meng mastiff was ready to use the people to threaten. Once Meng mastiff with countless people came to the outside of the county, at that time, what should Zhang Xiu do?


    On the one hand, it is the innocent people in the county, on the other hand, it is the overall situation of the battlefield.


    It''s a dilemma.


    Zhang Xiu made use of the hostage threat several times. She knew that in the current situation, once threatened, the consequences would be extremely serious. This is an unbearable result.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "now, only a hundred people have been arrested?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Zhang xiudao said: "the previous plan was to defeat the southern barbarians, recruit them, and then take them back for their own use. After all, the southern barbarians are not like the foreigners like Wuhuan, Hun and Xianbei. Now, it seems that Nanmeng mastiff is the real man. In that case, there is no need to worry about destroying them directly. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In an instant, soldiers came in and saluted respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu said, "send someone to inform Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Zhang song to discuss the matter."


    "Here it is


    The soldier went to inform immediately.


    After a while, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Zhang Song entered the room together.


    Zhang Xiu did not beat around the Bush, directly said the current situation, and finally said: "Meng mastiff mobilized Nanman soldiers to search and arrest the people in the territory of the county, and put the people in custody."


    "In Wang''s opinion, Meng mastiff''s intention is to drive out the common people as a protective umbrella while preparing for the attack. Or, they use the people to coerce the king. Once this happens, it will be quite dangerous. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so Wang decided to send troops tonight to break the camp of the southern barbarians."


    Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "when I was a student, I heard that some of the southern barbarians could drive beasts. Today, some of the southern barbarians shook their bells, blew their whistles and controlled the tigers to rush out. So I''m afraid that as soon as we get close to the camp of the southern barbarians, it''s night again, and the king of wood deer drives the beast, which will have a huge impact on us. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and confidently said, "I''ve been on guard for this. I''ve known for a long time that some of the southern barbarians drive beasts. Along the way, I asked Hu Mo to arrange for people to prepare sulfur powder, realgar wine, and ground garlic to soak in water. These scattered outside the camp of the southern barbarians are enough to disperse poisonous snakes and the like. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhang song!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Zhang Song answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go to Zhang Ren and ask him to lead the soldiers to the warehouse to get the prepared sulfur and realgar wine. Together with Zhang Ren''s loyal army, you quietly rush to the camp of the southern barbarians and stay outside the camp. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "where the army is stationed, sprinkle sulfur powder, pour realgar wine, etc., in order to avoid poisonous snakes running around. You lie in ambush outside the camp, ready to attack the southerners who escape from the camp. "


    "Here!"


    Zhang Song immediately threw his fist.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Sima Yi!"


    "Yes


    Sima Yi immediately stood up and bowed.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you go to see Hu Mo and ask him to arrange the soldiers of the flying eagle camp to prepare for the attack. As long as the flying eagle camp is over the southern barbarians, it will project a fire pot and ignite the entire southern barbarian camp. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi immediately responded.


    For this war, Sima Yi did not find it difficult. The only worry is that the southern barbarians have some unknown means. Besides, they are easy to escape into the mountains and not easy to catch up.


    Zhang Xiu finally said, "Pang Tong!""I''m in a humble position!"


    Pang Tong also stood up.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you go to find Zhang Ya and ask him to dispatch his troops to bypass the camp of the southern barbarians and go to the retreat road behind the southern barbarians to ambush and cut off the retreat road of the southern barbarians. This time, I will destroy all the southern barbarians. If they dare to arrest our Han people, they must be ready to be slaughtered. "


    Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to recruit Southern barbarians.


    It''s all population, after all.


    Having population means increasing strength. But in the current situation, Meng mastiff wanted to capture ordinary people. Such a move is equivalent to touching the scale of Zhang Xiu.


    It is a tacit rule of the armed forces that the two armies fight and do not kill envoys.


    It is also the most basic moral principle for the two armies to fight without harming innocent people. Once the war has begun, people can be plundered as a threat, and people can be slaughtered at will. It is not a war, but an unbridled killing.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s most irritated.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to order the destruction of the whole Nanman.


    The whole army, move quickly.


    After Zhang haodang and Zhang haoxiu go to the south of the county, they leave the camp.


    It was a smooth journey.


    In fact, even if Zhang Xiu was ambushed, he was not afraid. In the current situation, if the southern barbarians fight him head-on and don''t take other measures, Zhang Xiu will definitely win.


    During the day, if you don''t consider the means of King mulu, Zhang Xiu will kill directly. The news that the army was sent out was found by the sentry of the southern barbarians, and then the sentry left quickly.


    But the sentinel saw that after Zhang Xiu''s army left, all the bees left. This situation led them to only see Zhang Ren''s army leave, but they didn''t notice that Zhang Yan''s army also quietly left the county soon after.


    What''s more, in the end, the soldiers of Feiying camp, led by Hu Mo, took off slowly in a hot-air balloon and began to go to the camp of the southern barbarians.


    In the camp of the southern barbarians.


    When the sentinel sent back the news, Meng mastiff was overjoyed. He immediately arranged for people to call King mulu, King dorsi, and Wu Tugu.


    When the crowd gathered, Meng mastiff looked very excited and said, "I just got the news that the army led by Zhang Xiu has quietly come to the camp. Zhang Xiu came to attack at night. This is our chance to deal with Zhang Xiu. In the evening, the poisonous snakes under the command of mulu are the most effective


    Mu Lu said with a smile: "yes, during the day, Zhang Xiu killed my beast. Tonight, I will make Zhang Xiu pay the price and regret her actions during the day. "


    His face was full of smiles.


    He thinks tonight is the night to win.


    After all, it''s dark at night, and I can''t see it clearly in many places. But the snake under his command can quickly shuttle on the ground and attack Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.

 Chapter 850

    As time goes by, the night is getting dark.


    Towards the end of the night, there were still soldiers patrolling in the Nanman camp. Even because Meng mastiff knew that Zhang Xiu was coming, he had already ordered all the Nanman soldiers not to sleep and to be ready to fight with Zhang Xiu at any time.


    This is a crucial battle.


    So, everyone''s waiting.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Meng mastiff, King mulu and King Duosi were drinking wine and chatting. The atmosphere was quite warm.


    Whether it is Meng mastiff, or mulu king, or Duosi king, and Wu Tugu and others, are full of expectations. But for King mulu, King Duosi and others, they are really happy, because Zhang Xiu is about to be destroyed.


    For Meng mastiff, it is a smile with tears, because his son Meng Huo died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. It is true that under the knee of Meng mastiff, there are not only Meng Huo''s son, but also other sons. But Meng Huo was the son who really convinced the southern barbarians.


    But Meng Huo is dead!


    Meng mastiff accompanied by a smile, a cheek, but hidden cold su.


    He is looking forward to the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    A quarter of an hour!


    Two quarters of an hour!


    ¡­¡­


    In the twinkling of an eye, half an hour passed. At this time, even though Meng mastiff was still drinking and eating meat, his face was more dignified. He said, "no, it''s been such a long time. It''s nearly an hour since we got the news that Zhang Xiu sent troops. How come we haven''t got any news about Zhang Xiu. "


    After thinking about it, he said, "yes, there is no news yet. There is something strange about it


    Meng mastiff said: "I arranged for someone to investigate."


    Immediately, Meng mastiff arranged for soldiers to leave the camp to inquire for information. But the soldier left the camp and never came back.


    Another quarter of an hour later, the soldiers who went out to inquire about the news never came back, which made Meng mastiff frown. His premonition was very bad. He put down the bottle in his hand and said, "Doris, you are a very wise man. Tell me about the current situation. What''s the matter? Why do we go out of the people, there is no news


    Duosi said, "I think Zhang Xiu has come."


    After hearing this, Meng mastiff raised his eyebrows and showed an unexpected look on his face.


    A moment later, Meng mastiff suddenly realized and said, "you mean the army led by Zhang Xiu has arrived outside our camp. However, Zhang Xiu is hidden in the dark and has not yet launched an attack. Just like this, the people we arrange to go out will not be able to come back and will definitely be killed. "


    "Yes


    Dorothy nodded.


    Meng mastiff said: "Zhang Xiu''s army is ambushing outside the camp. Is it possible that they are preparing to launch an attack after midnight? Why not take us by surprise? "


    "There is a great possibility!"


    Duosi nodded and said easily: "Zhang Xiu''s mind seems to be right. In fact, he forgot that we still have the trump card of King mulu. Zhang Xiu''s troops are gathering outside the camp to hide. For the beast of King mulu, this is the opportunity. "


    When King mulu heard this, he was even more excited. He danced and said, "dorsi is reasonable. At night, these treasures in my hands are the best means of attacking at night."


    Meng mastiff said: "prepare for action!"


    "Go, go!"


    King mulu should stand up and quickly walk outside the tent.


    Meng mastiff and King Duosi also walked out of the barracks and went with King mulu to the area where King mulu''s army was stationed. In less than half a quarter of an hour, I came to the area where wooden boxes were lying.


    King mulu swept through the big boxes and said with a smile, "these boxes are filled with poisonous snakes. There are 100 poisonous snakes in each box, which are extremely powerful. "


    With a wave of his hand, the soldier quickly opened the box.


    With the opening of the box, colorful poisonous snakes spit out messages, sizzling. All the poisonous snakes began to climb out slowly, ready to swim in all directions.


    Dorsi took out his whistle and blew it in his mouth.


    "Woo! Woo


    After the whistle blows, the sound reverberates in the camp. With the gentle sound of the whistle, the poisonous snake no longer wanders around, but goes along the location of King Dosi and follows him to the camp.


    The dense scene makes people feel numb.


    Meng mastiff also shivered in his eyes, but in his eyes, he was excited and looked forward to it. He said, "this is our chance. This battle will defeat Zhang Xiu and defeat her army."


    "This battle is sure to be won," said Dorothy


    Meng mastiff said: "Zhang Xiu only saw tigers during the day. This evening, after the dense poisonous snakes passed, Zhang Xiu''s army hiding in the dark must flee everywhere. We''ll kill them when their army gets out of control. "


    King Duosi echoed: "tonight is the time for manwang to avenge Menghuo."Meng mastiff nodded and walked forward together.


    After arriving at the front camp, King Dorothy did not go out. He controlled the snake in the camp and let it swim out. Because in the current prediction, Zhang Xiu''s army is hidden outside.


    "Woo! Woo


    The whistle is ringing.


    More and more poisonous snakes are going out.


    A hundred paces away from the camp, in the dark, the army led by Zhang Xiu is ambushing here. His area and the area of his soldiers were all sprinkled with realgar wine, even sulfur powder, and countless garlic.


    These are snake repellents.


    It is specially used to deal with the poisonous snake in the hand of King mulu.


    Snakes, sizzling and spitting, kept moving forward. It''s just that when these poisonous snakes are about 60 steps out of the camp, they all start to swim around and no longer move forward.


    Even some snakes turned around and began to retreat, as if there were great terror ahead.


    King mulu controls in the rear, but although there is a torch burning in the camp, when the torch is burning in the camp, the sight is only 20 or 30 steps away.


    If you look outside, especially at the snakes on the ground, you can''t see them.


    King mulu is still constantly controlling, but he doesn''t know that his poisonous snakes have been roaming in the area of 60 steps or so. Each poisonous snake doesn''t dare to move forward, but just stays in the same place.


    As time goes by, King mulu''s mouth is blowing and his cheeks are a little bit sour. But outside the camp, there was still no scream, no sound.


    This scene surprised King mulu. What''s the matter?


    Is there no ambush?


    When King mulu is surprised, Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart. He has already made the arrangement, how can the poisonous snake of King mulu play a role. He waited quietly, waiting for Hu Mo and his entourage to shoot the fireball.


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu hides in the dark. From a distance, she can clearly see the king of wood deer in the camp and hear the whistle blowing. But after blowing for such a long time, no poisonous snake came out.


    This sulfur, realgar wine and so on played a role.


    The smell of sulfur and realgar wine made the snake dare not move forward.


    The king of mulu in the camp doesn''t know. After half a sound, he took down his whistle, rubbed his sore cheeks, and said in a deep voice, "manwang, Duosi, is there no ambush of Zhang Xiu outside the camp. It''s been such a long time, but nothing happened. I''m afraid the Viper under my command has gone a long way. If we continue to move forward, in case the viper is out of control, we will be in trouble. "


    Meng mastiff said: "I''ll send someone to have a look!"


    Immediately, Meng mastiff arranged for the soldiers to go out, but after the soldiers walked 30 steps away, they suddenly screamed with fright and quickly came back, reporting: "manwang, there are poisonous snakes outside. The poisonous snakes of King mulu are all outside the camp. "


    "Ah


    King mulu exclaimed.


    His face, too, had an incredible look.


    How is that possible?


    He blew the whistle for such a long time. Today, these poisonous snakes are still outside the camp. It''s absolutely impossible.

 Chapter 851

    King mulu''s face was full of disbelief, and he said, "impossible, absolutely impossible. I''ve never made a mistake in controlling my viper. I''ll let them go east. They''ll never go west. These poisonous snakes are all carefully bred by me. They can understand the rhythm. "


    "Now it seems that Zhang Xiu should lie in ambush outside. Maybe it''s what Zhang Xiu uses that affects the viper and makes them unable to move forward. "


    Meng mastiff said: "I also agree with dorsi''s analysis. Under the current situation, there is absolutely something that frightens your snake."


    "No way!"


    King mulu spoke again.


    The poisonous snake he cultivated is invincible and can never be stopped.


    It''s a must win.


    King mulu thought about it and said, "I''ll go outside the camp and have a look."


    Meng mastiff said: "be careful!"


    "Don''t worry!"


    There was no worry on King mulu''s face. He couldn''t really see it in the dark. He told the soldiers to set a torch and then came forward with two guards.


    Two personal guards, one on the left and one on the right.


    Once someone kills him, the people of King mulu can resist immediately. What''s more, there are lots of poisonous snakes around, and it''s impossible for anyone to get close to him. So in his heart, there''s nothing to worry about, but it''s quite relaxed.


    King mulu with people, did not whistle, but took out the hands of the bell, began to shake.


    "Ding Ling Ling!"


    The sound frequency of the bell is similar to that of a whistle.


    There are subtle differences.


    This kind of sound, is urges the poisonous snake to move forward. However, some of the poisonous snakes who were sixty paces away bravely ran forward a little distance, but they stopped here and did not go on.


    Still scared and wandering around.


    As soon as king mulu appears, in the darkness a hundred steps away from the camp, when Zhang Xiu sees King mulu coming out, there is a flash of light in her eyes, which is full of killing intention.


    For the southern barbarians, the one he was slightly afraid of was king mulu.


    If you don''t be careful when you meet some beasts under King mulu, it''s easy to have problems. Now the king of mulu took the initiative to walk out of the camp and took more than 30 steps. In particular, there is a torch burning beside King mulu, which makes him a lighthouse in the dark.


    This is for death!


    "Take my bow and arrow!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order and stretched out her hand. A moment later, a soldier handed over an iron bow. Zhang Xiu holds an iron bow, twists a bow and arrow with her right hand, and puts it on the bow string.


    The arrow flashing with cold light aimed at the position of King mulu.


    It''s just the position where Zhang Xiu is. At a glance, there is a personal guard of King mulu, blocking the sight, which makes Zhang Xiu unable to shoot. He can only bend slightly and then carefully change his position.


    When Zhang Xiu stops again, she looks up at the position of the king of wood deer. At this time, the king of mulu was less than 50 steps away from where Zhang Xiu was.


    And the king of mulu is completely exposed in Zhang Xiu''s sight.


    Here''s the chance!


    Zhang Xiu eyes a bright, full of bowstring hand, immediately released.


    "Hum!"


    The bow string vibrates, the bow and arrow fly out like a meteor, turning into a streamer under the night, and heading for the position of King mulu. At this time, King mulu was still checking the situation to see what had happened, so that his poisonous snakes did not dare to move forward.


    He sniffed. Suddenly, he smelled a trace of sulfur.


    More realgar wine spread flavor.


    All of a sudden, King mulu suddenly realized. He understood, but at this moment, there was a burst of sound in the air. King mulu raised his eyes and suddenly widened them.


    "No, there''s an attack."


    In the heart of King mulu, there was a bad feeling.


    But without waiting for him to respond, the bow and arrow had already arrived, and he could not avoid it at all.


    "Puchi!"


    A bow and arrow, impartial, in the center of the eyebrow of King mulu. The tip of the arrow shot into King mulu''s head and pierced into his head. King mulu opened his mouth to speak, but before he could speak, he fell on the ground with his head up and no more sound.


    King mulu, get shot in the head!


    "Ah


    The rest of the soldiers screamed in fright, threw away the torch and ran back as if.


    After King mulu was killed, all snakes lost control and kept swimming back. Because in front of the poisonous snakes, there is a smell of sulfur and realgar wine, which makes these poisonous snakes fear.


    Originally, these poisonous snakes gathered in the area of 60 steps or so because of the control of the king mulu. But now, without the control of the people, a snake scurrying.


    King Duosi and Meng mastiff saw King mulu killed in the barracks with their own eyes. Their faces were shocked and incredible.


    Dead!King mulu died like this!


    Gudong!


    King Duosi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and there was a trace of fear in his heart. For a moment, he was even more flustered. He looked at the Meng mastiff and said, "King man, King mulu was killed. What should we do now?"


    "Guard


    Meng mastiff clenched his teeth.


    Although he was angry and surprised, he didn''t lose his sense of propriety and said in a deep voice: "there are nearly 70000 elites in our army. This force can not be easily defeated. "


    After a pause, Meng mastiff said: "as long as our troops are there, even if Zhang Xiu''s troops are ambushed outside, they can''t be killed. This evening, Zhang Xiu is obviously aiming at wood deer. It''s a pity that the wood deer died under the arrow. It''s too cowardly. "


    "Yes


    Dorsi said: "the death of King mulu is really a coward."


    Meng mastiff gritted his teeth: "at present, we have no other way, so we choose to stick to it. I don''t believe that Zhang Xiu''s tiny troops can defeat us. After daybreak, we''ll go out and fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    Dorsi''s panic heart gradually calmed down, and her reason gradually returned.


    He turned his eyes and said, "Zhang Xiu is very cunning. Since he killed the mulu first, now, I''m afraid there will be a way. In a word, we should be careful not to give Zhang Xiu any chance. "


    "Yes


    Meng mastiff nodded in agreement!


    Outside the camp, Zhang Xiu is still waiting quietly after shooting the deer. Because under the current situation, without the attack of flying eagle camp, it is certainly not cost-effective to directly attack the camp of Meng mastiff.


    Just at this time, a soldier suddenly said: "Your Highness, the elite flying eagle camp led by Hu Mo has begun to decline, not far from the camp of the southern barbarians."


    Zhang Xiu looked up.


    In the starry sky at night, there was a little fire all over the sky.


    One by one, the flying balls come slowly.


    The flying eagle camp led by Hu Mo sent out 100 flying balls tonight. There were lots of flying balls in the air, not far from the camp where the southern barbarians lived.


    The camp is wide with a team of nearly 70000 people.


    Inside the camp, a torch burns.


    The whole area is as bright as day. In this case, it is completely a target and can easily identify the direction and position.


    After estimating the distance, Hu Mo waited for the right position and ordered: "attack!"


    With his command, the soldiers quickly lit the tarpaulin on the tinder and threw it down. In an instant, a hundred burning pottery pots fell in the air, with a whistling sound, and went straight to the camp of the southern barbarians.


    The first batch of fire oil pots were thrown down, and the second and third batch were thrown down continuously. For a moment, over the whole camp of the southern barbarians, the fire was just like the sky fire.

 Chapter 852

    "King, there are fires in the sky. There are countless fires in the sky."


    In the camp of the southern barbarians, a soldier suddenly found the falling fire. When these people saw the pottery pot falling from the sky, they did not find what it was for the time being, so they could only call it Tianhuo.


    In words, there is more awe and fear.


    Hearing this, Meng mastiff and King Duosi looked up together. When they looked up at the sky, the look on their faces also became extremely frightening.


    King Doris exclaimed, "no, there is something flying in the sky. It''s this thing that keeps throwing fireballs. Now, all the fireballs are landing in our camp "


    Meng mastiff also saw the fireball landing.


    "Bang Dang!"


    The first pottery pot fell to the ground. Under the impact of that force, the pottery pot directly cracked, and the fire oil in it flowed out, scattered all over the ground and flowed everywhere.


    The tarpaulin and hay soaked in the fire oil will burn rapidly under the splashing sparks.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    The fire was burning and the snakes were running about.


    "Bang Dang! Kuangdang


    Constantly falling on the ground of the fire snake, scurrying around, the whole camp, quickly formed a fire fox.


    The sea of fire gradually formed.


    The heat wave is raging, and it is constantly dispersing.


    In particular, there are innumerable equipment, tents, firewood and weeds in the camp. As these materials were ignited by the fire, the whole camp was already full of fire.


    Meng mastiff was stunned.


    After he recovered, he did not dare to delay, and quickly ordered: "quickly, withdraw immediately. Time is pressing. We''ll leave the county immediately and return to qiongdu county. "


    "Pass the order quickly!"


    Meng mastiff this moment, panic.


    "Woo! Woo


    In the camp, suddenly the horn sounded.


    The sound of the horn is not loud and majestic, but rather low. It is specially used for commanding the retreat. With the sound of the bugle all over the camp, countless soldiers rushed out.


    Rao is so. Because of the burning of the sea of fire, many Nanman soldiers have fallen into the sea of fire, and their clothes are all burning up, so they can only rush to put out the fire.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    "Fire, run. The fire is burning. Run away


    "Here comes the fire!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more southern barbarians roar, they keep running. Rao is so, because most of the soldiers in the camp rushed to the gate of the camp, so that countless people crowded together.


    In the process of running forward, many soldiers fell to the ground, but after they fell to the ground, they were trampled to death by the soldiers who rushed up behind, and there was no chance to resist.


    Meng mastiff can''t control the soldiers who have been burned by the fire, the dead and wounded soldiers.


    All this, has been unable to stop.


    Meng mastiff and dorsi king, as well as Wu Tugu, and a group of generals under his command, quickly gathered. Under the cover of the soldiers, they began to rush out in flames.


    They want to escape!


    Otherwise, it would be a dead end to stay in the camp.


    More and more people rushed to the gate of the camp, their faces full of panic.


    It''s terrible!


    The camp suddenly became a sea of fire.


    Zhang Xiu saw the dense Nanman soldiers who had begun to retreat. He gave the order to attack. The bowmen and archers were in place. They kept pulling their bows and arrows to kill the southerners.


    Zhang Xiu knows that there are a few people in the camp. But he couldn''t let go of the southern barbarians for the sake of this common people. Because once the southern barbarians run away, more people will be killed and injured.


    But Zhang Xiu can''t manage so much.


    Their life and death, only life and death, each of heaven''s destiny, depends on their fate.


    This is war!


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill the southern barbarians here, the consequences will be more serious.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn. She looked at the bow and arrow that were shot like rain, and the crossbow that was constantly shot out, and shot into the bodies of the southern barbarian soldiers. One after another, the Nanman soldiers fell under the bow and arrow, at the gate of the camp.


    This is the ultimate harvest.


    In the current situation, countless Nanman soldiers gather at the gate of the camp, the number is too dense. As long as the bow and arrow fall, you can hit it at will. You don''t need to aim at it at all.


    The crossbow is even more powerful, and the strength of the crossbow is stronger. One arrow is enough to penetrate the soldier''s body, and then it can continue to shoot through several people''s bodies.


    For a time, there were so many southern barbarians killed and injured.


    Under the cover of soldiers, Meng mastiff, Duosi king, Wu Tugu and others, even if there were dense bows and arrows, still killed out of the camp, then turned around and went all the way south.


    They''re going to flee the county.


    Zhang Xiu is terrible.


    After this battle, the soldiers among the southern barbarians were afraid of Zhang Xiu and did not dare to fight with her. All of them fled quickly.After seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu left archers, crossbow hands, and 3000 soldiers and horses to continue to cover up the southern barbarian soldiers killed in the self operated land. He and Zhang Ren, together with Yan Yan and the rest of the soldiers, rushed to escape Meng mastiff and other southern barbarian high-level figures.


    These people are the key.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, none of them can escape and must be killed. Otherwise, after these people escape, they will go back to the mountains and forests and hide in the deep mountains and forests. It will be very difficult for them to continue to attack at that time.


    "Drive!"


    Zhang Xiu kicked the horse''s belly, and the horse in the crotch was already rushing forward quickly.


    Under the command of a soldier, constantly sprint.


    Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ren and Yan Yan led the soldiers to catch up quickly. Originally, the distance between the two sides is not far. Such pursuit is not difficult.


    The distance between the two sides, quickly close.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are already in the position of Meng mastiff.


    He has been staring at the mengmastiff, kill mengmastiff, then the largest tribe in Nanman will be completely eliminated. He moved forward quickly, and the distance between the two sides was gradually shortened from the first 50 or 60 steps to less than 20 steps.


    Such a distance, but also let Meng mastiff''s heart. When Meng mastiff found Zhang Xiu coming from behind, he panicked and roared: "busy tooth, you go to resist and hold Zhang Xiu."


    Busy tooth long, is Meng mastiff under the command of the general.


    He was a big man with a four foot long sword and a yellow puma in his crotch. He heard Meng mastiff''s order and knew that Zhang Xiu had to be held back at this time. He had to be ordered to go.


    "Zhang Xiu, die!"


    Busy tooth long spurt, in the twinkling of an eye to Zhang Xiu''s body, in the hand of the sword has been swung cut.


    "Get out of here!"


    The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand is swung up and smashed out.


    "Dang!"


    The harsh sound of impact sounded. With the impact of weapons, the busy teeth changed greatly. When he held the handle of the knife, it hurt so much that the big knife was knocked out.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was explored, the tip of the gun turned into a streamer. With a puff, it penetrated into busy tooth''s throat and pierced busy tooth''s neck.


    Poof!


    The red blood splashed from busy teeth ''neck.


    He opened his mouth, but in the end, without making a sound, he fell to the ground with a plop. Zhang Xiu killed the busy tooth with one shot and rushed forward with the gun again.


    He and Meng mastiff distance, because just a little pause, and there are 256 steps away. So Zhang Xiu gallop horse, once again quickly shorten the distance.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu is getting closer to Meng mastiff, Meng you, the second son of Meng mastiff, rushes out. He bit his teeth, roared: "father, quickly withdraw, quickly withdraw, I hold Zhang Xiu."


    He bit his teeth and drove his horse to Zhang Xiu.


    At this moment, Meng you is fearless and fearless of death. His martial arts are not as good as Meng Huo. Even Meng Huo is not Zhang Xiu''s rival, let alone Meng you.


    In order to hold Zhang Xiu, he killed her.


    Meng you kills Zhang Xiu. He swings his sword and slashes at her.


    Zhang Xiu sneered in her heart.


    A Meng Huo died, and now a son of Meng mastiff comes. Zhang Xiu has no pity for the southern barbarians. If Meng mastiff did not order to arrest the people, Zhang Xiu would not be so ruthless.


    But now, all the southern barbarians can be killed.


    Killers, people always kill!


    The South barbarian captured the Han people and violated Zhang Xiu''s rules. It''s time to kill them!

 Chapter 853

    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun and rushes forward. In a twinkling of an eye, she kills Meng you. The overlord gun in his hand went up and swept out with one shot. There was a roaring sound hanging from the barrel of the gun. It was in front of Meng you in the twinkling of an eye.


    Meng you''s face was solemn. He bit his teeth and put the knife in front of him. But when the blade and the barrel of the gun hit the moment, the surging force of the impact, Meng you in the hands of the sword, directly knocked to see out.


    "Death


    Zhang Xiu drinks low, Overlord gun draws back, then directly pokes out.


    One shot straight to the middle line.


    Impartial, Puchi a, then stabbed into Meng you''s heart, directly stabbed a pair of wear.


    The gun was drawn out and the blood spattered.


    Meng you''s body shakes twice and falls to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t look at Meng you lying on the ground. He looks up to the place where Meng mastiff is. The distance between the two sides is less than 30 steps, and the distance is not too far. Zhang Xiu tries to roar: "Meng mastiff, you died first, Meng Huo, the eldest son, and now the youngest son is killed again. Are you going to run away as a father? "


    Although there are shouts around, Meng mastiff can still hear the sound clearly.


    Especially when Meng you was killed just now, Meng mastiff saw it clearly.


    Meng you is dead!


    Meng Huo is dead, too!


    There are only two sons under his knee, and now they are all dead in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Xiu, damn you!"


    Meng mastiff''s face was full of anger and ferocity. Biting his teeth, he roared: "Wu Tu Gu, Duo Si, we can''t escape. At this time, it''s better to kill Zhang Xiu for a while. "


    "No, retreat quickly!"


    Don''t even think about it, but retreat.


    He just wanted to evacuate.


    Now Zhang Xiu is crazy and murders people like hemp. To stay at this time is to seek death. He doesn''t want to be killed, he doesn''t want to die here, he wants to survive, so he doesn''t want to stay and kill at all.


    Meng mastiff died two sons, he did not!


    He doesn''t want to die!


    King dorsi kept on evacuating, and so did Wu Tu Gu, with his soldiers quickly evacuating.


    Only Meng mastiff and his generals stopped, including general Jinhuan Sanjie, Dong Dana and a Huinan. Together with Meng mastiff, they all held weapons.


    "Go back and kill Zhang Xiu!"


    Meng mastiff gave the order.


    He clenched his teeth and said in a loud voice: "whoever killed Zhang Xiu, I''ll give him the position of Nanman king."


    In fact, no matter Jinhuan Sanjie, Dong Dana and a Huinan, they are all older than Meng Huo, but they are still relatively young. They are the valiant generals of Meng mastiff.


    One by one, they belong to mengmastiff, so they can only obey the orders of mengmastiff. Especially in today''s situation, Meng mastiff gives excellent conditions, one by one heart, already excited, eager to kill Zhang Xiu immediately.


    "Kill


    Gold ring three knot is biting a tooth, carrying a knife to kill to Zhang Xiu.


    However, Jin Huan San Jie is also cunning. Instead of killing Zhang Xiu from the front, he goes around from the right side and prepares to kill Zhang Xiu from the side. After all, the person who attacks Zhang Xiu from the front must bear the most fierce attack.


    But the golden ring three knot just forward out not far, but see Yan Yan kill out. Yan Yan, holding a long sword, rushes forward to the front of Jinhuan Sanjie. As soon as he leaned over, the long sword dragged upside down on the ground was suddenly waved from bottom to top.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cuts the armour of the golden ring, breaks into his belly, and finally cuts over his shoulder. Although the three knots of the golden ring didn''t die, the whole person was in pain.


    After Yan Yan established his advantage, he cut off his sword again.


    The edge of the blade fell down and made no progress.


    Golden ring three knot to lift the knife grid block, but his belly and chest, leaving a flesh and blood flying wound, simply unable to force. Seeing the blade fall, the golden ring three knot is helpless.


    "Poof!"


    When the blade passed, the head of the golden ring three knots flew out, and the blood splashed out like a spring.


    After Yan Yan killed the golden ring three knot, he went on.


    Dong Da killed him to the left.


    He met Zhang Ren. Before they met, he saw the head of Jin Huan San Jie flying out. Seeing Jin Huan San Jie killed, Dong Dana''s heart sank.


    But he has not made the decision to retreat, the next moment, Zhang Ren has been killed in front of him.


    A big gun came out of the air and stabbed him in the heart.


    The gun was drawn out and the blood spattered.


    Dong Dana''s body shook and fell to the ground. From the beginning to the end, he didn''t even wield a weapon, didn''t even say a word in his mouth, and was directly stabbed to death.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of the two wings. He continued to rush forward with his overlord gun and killed a Huinan. The overlord''s gun sweeps, a gun hits down a meeting Nan.


    Chasing the wind rushed up and trampled down.


    Bang!!The huge horseshoes trample on ahuran''s chest. In a flash, ah Hui Nan''s sternum was broken, his internal organs were broken, and he was directly trampled to death by a horse''s hoof.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t look at the killed a Huinan, but rushes to Meng mastiff with the overlord''s gun.


    Originally, Meng mastiff wanted to avenge his son. He wanted to have Jin Huan San Jie, a Hui Nan and Dong Da there. But on weekdays, he relied on the people who were generals, but he was directly killed, and he didn''t even make it through.


    The reality of this sense of bone makes Meng mastiff''s heart cold. He was full of fighting spirit and wanted to fight for a while. But now I see the killed golden ring three knot and others, a heart completely cool down.


    "Withdraw!"


    Meng mastiff again ordered.


    He quickly turned his horse and was ready to leave.


    Only this delay time, the distance between him and Zhang Xiu, has been less than ten steps away. In particular, there were retreating Nanman soldiers around, which reduced the retreat speed of mengmastiff.


    Zhang Xiu''s pursuit of the wind in her crotch is incomparable and fast forward. A moment later, he was behind Meng mastiff. Zhang Xiu in the hands of the overlord gun, mention to poke out.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates into the horse''s buttocks.


    "Herod!"


    Under the pain of eating, the horse kept hissing, and even more, it kept rushing forward. Just like this, under the random rush, the war horse was not stable, and Meng mastiff could not sit still, so he was thrown out directly.


    Plop!!


    Meng mastiff''s body fell to the ground, and he fell into a mess. In particular, other people are not young, and their bodies are not as good as those of young people in their early twenties. After this fall, all the bones seem to fall apart.


    However, Meng mastiff, after all, is struggling. He knows that if he stops now, he will be killed immediately. He endured the pain of the body, quickly stood up, did not consider other, directly on the fast forward.


    Da! Da!!


    The rapid sound of the horse''s hooves came from behind.


    Meng mastiff more clearly, it must be Zhang Xiu chasing. He threw off his legs and ran forward, but when he rushed forward, a burly figure had reached his back.


    The body of the horse, hit hard.


    Boom!!


    Zhuifeng''s burly body hit Meng mastiff''s body.


    Poof!


    A moment of impact, Meng mastiff''s viscera concussion, a mouthful of fresh blood will spray spit out. Under the impact of this fierce force, he couldn''t stand firm at all and took off.


    People in the air, Meng mastiff mouth is still hematemesis. And his internal organs are like broken general, the whole body as if enamel broken, only feel very uncomfortable.


    Bang!


    Meng mastiff fell to the ground.


    His body twitches twice, and the consciousness in his brain makes him bite his teeth and want to stand up. But all over the body, a little strength, can''t lift, just feel the whole person''s spirit began to disperse.


    In mid air, he seemed to see Meng Huo and Meng you. Both brothers waved to him in mid air.


    When Zhang Xiu''s horse came up and stopped in front of Meng mastiff, Meng mastiff''s mouth lit up a smile, his head deviated, and he had lost consciousness. But Zhang Xiu didn''t believe it. There were so many people pretending to be dead on the battlefield. He picked up the overlord gun and stabbed it down.


    Puchi!


    The tip of the gun penetrated into the body of Meng mastiff, and one shot pierced the heart of Meng mastiff, while the body of Meng mastiff swayed twice, and Zhang Xiu confirmed that Meng mastiff was killed.


    "Meng mastiff is killed, kill it for me!"


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave the order of slaughter, but he didn''t surrender the southern barbarians. Because in today''s situation, he wants to use this killing to completely establish the dignity, so that the rest of the southern barbarians who are still in the mountains know the consequences of robbing the Han people!

 Chapter 854

    The shouting is still going on.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is constantly killing. Under the slaughter of the army, more and more people were killed and injured. Countless Southern barbarians trampled on them, causing countless deaths and injuries.


    King dorsi and Wu Tugu are on the run.


    Both of them were terrified.


    Zhang Xiu''s people are too fierce. The family of Meng mastiff and his soldiers were all slaughtered, and none of the generals were left.


    The soldiers under the command of Meng mastiff are more dead and injured.


    Under such circumstances, how dare king Dosi and Wu Tugu stay? They want to withdraw immediately.


    Wu Tu Gu looked at the king of Duosi not far away and roared: "Duosi, Zhang Xiu''s army is chasing us. I''m afraid we may not be able to escape. What do we do?"


    "Go away!"


    King Duosi gritted his teeth and said, "from the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu never brought anyone down. Stay. That''s the one who''s looking for death. We are all wantonly arresting Han people. Zhang Xiu will certainly not spare us. "


    Wu Tu Gu was so frightened that he shivered.


    King Duosi continued: "what''s more, now Meng mastiff is dead, so is king mulu. We want to flee back. As long as we escape back to the mountains, we can expand our strength. "


    Wu Tu Gu''s eyes brightened.


    Opportunity!


    This is a chance!


    Wu Tugu''s eyes sparkled with brilliance. He kept beating the horse''s back to make the horse move forward quickly. But Yan Tu didn''t catch up with him.


    Yan Yan doesn''t know Wu Tu Gu, but Wu Tu Gu is accompanied by a guard, which makes his identity clear. In particular, the intense burning of a torch dispels the darkness. In this case, the Wu Tu bone is more obvious.


    Although there is moonlight now, you can''t see the night road clearly if you don''t hit the torch. Therefore, even if you know that the burning of the torch will expose yourself, you can''t avoid it.


    Yan Yan drives his horse to chase him. He carries his sword and his horse rushes. Now he is subordinate to Zhang Xiu and works under her command. For the time being, he has no independent leader, so he wants to make contributions.


    "Drive!"


    Yan Yan shakes the reins and catches up quickly.


    He leaned slightly on the horse''s back and speeded up to catch up. The horse was like an arrow away from the string and quickly shortened the distance. When he approached the guards under Wu Tugu''s command, Yan Yan suddenly burst up and cut off with a sword in his hand.


    The light of the sword is shining, and the place where the blade is cut off, the pro guards are constantly killed by Yan Yan.


    Wu Tu Gu was in a panic.


    What''s going on?


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, how can a murderer emerge.


    "Up, get in the way of him!"


    "Stop him!"


    Wu Tu Gu roared and ordered his soldiers to stop him. But all the soldiers who went to stop Yan Yan, but one face to face, were killed by Yan Yan with a knife, there was no way to survive.


    Yan Yan at the beginning, not sure who is the big fish, but after Wu Tu Gu ordered, he has been determined that Wu Tu Gu is the coach. Yan Yan doesn''t know Wu Tu Gu, but he knows that Wu Tu Gu is a big fish.


    He''s holding the knife, moving fast forward.


    After the southern barbarians were killed, Yan Yan had already killed Wu Tugu.


    "Kill


    Yan Yan drinks low. He swings his sword and cuts it off.


    The sharp edge of the sword fell, and Wu Tu Gu couldn''t avoid it for the time being. He could only pull out the long sword at his waist and block it.


    "Dang!"


    Blade and blade impact, a crisp sound, the sword was directly knocked away. The falling blade continued to chop forward. With a pee, it fell from Wu Tu Gu''s shoulder, leaving a foot long wound.


    Flesh and blood turn out, blood flow.


    Wu Tu Gu roared: "don''t kill me. I''m willing to surrender. I''m willing to surrender."


    The pain of tearing the heart and splitting the lung makes the Wu Tu bone extremely uncomfortable. Rao is so, but Wu Tugu gritted his teeth. If he didn''t cry for mercy, he would be killed.


    It''s a pity that Yan Yan didn''t hear it.


    After a knife fell, the long knife swung around. The next moment, the long knife swung up again, and then cut it off.


    The light of the cold knife flashed away from the air.


    The next moment, Wu Tu Gu''s head, flying directly, with splashing blood, fell to the ground. Wu Tu Gu''s body fell to the ground with a plop.


    After Yan Yan killed Wu Tugu, he caught a barbarian soldier and asked him. Then he knew that he had killed Wu Tugu, the leader of Nanman''s department. However, Yan Yan did not stay, and still pursued quickly.


    He turned his eyes and looked again at the location of King doss.


    But king Dorothy is far away.


    And there are countless soldiers in the middle, want to kill King Duosi, Yan Yan certainly can''t do it. He continued to wave the sword in his hand, leading the soldiers to pursue and kill.


    In front of the fleeing Duosi king, has known that Wu Tu bone was killed.In his heart, he was even more sad.


    Dead!


    They''re all dead!


    No matter the king of mulu, Wu Tugu or Meng mastiff, they all died in this war. In addition, more people were killed, and the whole army of Nanman was severely damaged.


    When Wu Tugu was still alive, King dorsi''s vest was secretly happy that King mulu and Meng mastiff were killed. When they went back, they could carve up the territory.


    But now, he''s the only one left.


    At this time, it''s a tragedy.


    He is also worried about whether he can hold on to the only remaining foundation. After all, he does not have many troops. If he had enough troops, King dosh would not worry. He thought that if he could keep his foundation, he would even have the chance to unify the whole Nanman. But the problem is that he is weak now. Nanman has lost so much that he worries that he can''t keep it.


    This is the sadness in King Dosi''s heart.


    Fortunately, he was at the front.


    Behind him, there are countless Southern barbarians retreating. Because these Southern barbarians at the back of the hall blocked Zhang Xiu''s pursuit speed, he had a chance to evacuate.


    The retreat continued.


    Time has already passed early in the morning, and King dorth is still constantly retreating.


    Seeing that there were fewer and fewer pursuers in the rear, King Dosi''s heart was a little relieved. At this time, no matter whether he can keep the foundation or not, at least he can escape now.


    I''ll talk about it later.


    "King, I can''t hold it. Shall we stop and stop a little before we go


    The Nanman generals on one side put forward suggestions.


    Retreat all the way from the barracks, this way, there is no rest at all, from beginning to end in constant retreat. Now, it''s hard to retreat for a long distance. There are no pursuers in the rear, and the soldiers are beginning to relax.


    "Can''t stop!"


    King Duosi said: "in case of being caught up, or in case of Zhang Xiu''s ambush, we are even more dangerous. Pull out. We''ll pull out at full speed. "


    When the general heard the words, he sighed in his heart. Although he wanted to carry out the order, he muttered in his heart.


    Have escaped so far, there is no ambush.


    Suddenly, the general''s pupil shrank.


    Suddenly, a look of panic appeared on the rough and dark face, and he said in a loud voice: "king, look, there is fire in front of us, there is fire in front of us."


    King Dosi looked forward and saw a torch burning 30 steps ahead of them. The red light of the fire dispelled the darkness.


    One by one, the soldiers of the Qin Army stood out.


    The first is Zhang Yan.


    When Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ren led the troops to attack the camp of the southern barbarians, he had already taken the troops to the road to qiongdu county to ambush and wait here.


    Now, it''s time for someone to come.


    Zhang jawed his horse to carry a gun and ordered: "kill!"


    With an order, Zhang jaw took the lead and rushed to the front. The soldier in his crotch, too, started the sprint with a cry. These soldiers have been waiting for such a long time. Now when they see the enemy, they can''t help but charge quickly.


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    The morale of the regular soldiers who rushed to kill was high.


    The sound of shouting and killing came to King Dosi''s ears, but it seemed like thunder, which made king Dosi feel dizzy and desperate.


    It''s over!


    Their retreat is blocked!


    Where are they going?


    At this moment, King Dosi''s heart sank to the bottom, and he didn''t know what to do.

 Chapter 855

    King dorsi looked around and saw that there were mountain roads around him. It was hard to climb at night. In case there is a cliff or something in front of us, there is no way out.


    But there were Qin soldiers killed in front, which was hard to resist. King Doris gritted his teeth and ordered: "rush, rush out. As long as we break through, we have a chance to survive. "


    He gave a loud order.


    The soldiers under his command, surrounded by King Duosi, rushed in the direction of Zhang Yansha.


    Zhang jaw''s eyes fell directly on King Duosi. The reason why he knew king Duosi was very simple. When Meng mastiff took people to the outside of Cheng County, King Duosi was not far away from Meng mastiff.


    Therefore, Zhang Yan knows King dorsi.


    Zhang Ya knows that king Duosi is a big fish. Under this premise, he is not willing to give up King Duosi.


    "Kill


    Open jaw low drink, very gun stab.


    Puchi!


    The spear was stabbed into a southern soldier''s body and pulled out with blood.


    Zhang jaw did not pause at all, holding a gun to quickly cover up. Especially around Zhang jaw, there are soldiers constantly fighting. With these soldiers, Zhang jaw was invincible, and no one could resist.


    In the twinkling of an eye, Zhang jaw killed king Dosi.


    King Duosi was anxious in his heart. He swung his sword and slashed it at Zhang''s jaw. But his knife was so light that he could not see the strength, and there was no composition. After Zhang Yan took refuge, he stabbed out the long gun in his hand.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into the heart of King Dosi.


    One shot through the heart.


    On the face of King dorsi, there was a look of pain and despair. He opened his mouth to speak, but the blood from his throat blocked his throat and made his mouth rattle.


    Eyes in the look, gradually fade, become dark down.


    "Poof!"


    King Duosi vomited blood in his mouth. He raised his head and fell down from the horse.


    "The king has been killed!"


    In the crowd, there were Nanman soldiers shouting at once.


    These Southern barbarians cried out, and some began to cry out for surrender instead of running away. But from the beginning to the end, Zhang jaw didn''t surrender. He took his regular soldiers and killed them back and forth, constantly killing one by one.


    This is a killing that continues.


    When Zhang Xiu, Zhang Ren and others led the army to kill and joined with Zhang Yan''s army, the cover up was stronger and the killing of the southern barbarians was bloody.


    A corpse, lying on the ground.


    The screams lingered in the air.


    The fighting continued until the next morning, when it was light. From the camp of the southern barbarians to the killing place of Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yan, there were countless corpses along the way, almost all of them belonged to the southern barbarians.


    The whole army of the southern barbarians, with countless casualties.


    But Zhang Xiu couldn''t manage so much. He could only manage the common people under his own rule and the Han people. After Zhang Xiu withdrew, she checked the battlefield and handed it over to Zhang Yan and Zhang Ren.


    The count lasted until late afternoon.


    The bodies of all the southern barbarians have been burned.


    Zhang Xiu''s loss has also been counted.


    Zhang Yan, Zhang Ren and others return to the city floor of the county. When they see Zhang Xiu, they hold their fists and salute.


    With a solemn face, Zhang reported: "Your Highness, in the fight with Nanman last night, we killed more than 43000 Nanman soldiers. In addition, we roughly estimated that there were more than 24000 Nanman soldiers burned in the fire."


    "In this war, all the Nanman leaders, such as Wang mengmastiff, King Duosi, King mulu, and Wu Tugu, were killed. The whole power of Nanman was almost wiped out. "


    Zhang said: "in the territory of Yueyi County, there will be no Southern barbarians to make trouble for at least 30 years."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised.


    This is the result that Zhang Xiu expects. He doesn''t want Nanman to make trouble in Yueyi county.


    If the southern barbarians live and work in peace and contentment, and do not go out of the mountains and make trouble, Zhang Xiu will not encircle and suppress the southern barbarians, but will be more kind to them. But Meng mastiff caught the common people and made Zhang Xiu''s chance, so Zhang Xiu didn''t keep her hand, so she should be killed directly.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "the army will rest for a day. Tomorrow morning, they will set off for qiongdu county."


    "Here it is


    Open the jaw and arch the hand.


    Zhang Ren, Yan Yan and others also responded.


    Zhang Xiu''s words changed, and then asked, "have all the records of the officers and soldiers been counted?"


    "The statistics have been finished," Zhang said


    Zhang Xiu nodded, then no longer said much, waved his hand to let people back down.


    He sat in the tent, thinking about the next step. Now it''s easy to wipe out Nanman and take qiongdu county. But for the whole south of Yizhou, it is a vast area, and the further south, the steeper the mountains, the different roads, it is not an easy place to go.


    Such a place is not easy to attack.


    It''s not easy to govern.But now it''s a step-by-step process, and it''s not urgent.


    In the morning of the next day, Zhang Xiu left the county and went south to qiongdu county. This time I went to qiongdu County, the road was smoother, and even there were fewer Southern barbarians along the way.


    In particular, the news that Meng mastiff, mulu king, Duosi king and others were killed came out. Even if there were some scattered Southern barbarians, they did not dare to stay for a long time. They were all scared to leave.


    No one dares to stay.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu arrived in qiongdu County, it was early September. At this time, the weather is even cooler. Unfortunately, the people of qiongdu county are in dire need.


    Originally, qiongdu county was located in the south, remote and not very prosperous. Now, after being harmed by the southern barbarians, there are very few people in qiongdu county.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, countless people came to meet her.


    Countless people clapped their hands to celebrate.


    They all celebrated the extermination of Meng mastiff and other Nanman kings.


    However, when Zhang Xiu entered qiongdu County, looking at the buildings and the people in the city, she felt sad. Under the current situation, it is not easy to go from qiongdu county to Chengdu, and the road is blocked.


    Moreover, it is difficult to gather countless people in places like qiongdu county. Because people with a little ability have left qiongdu county to go north to places like Chengdu, which is too poor.


    In the whole qiongdu County, there are no Qionglouyuyu, no grand mansion, even the city wall is mottled and dilapidated, which is very dilapidated.


    To this, Zhang Xiu sighs in the heart.


    There are many mountains in the middle of Sichuan, and the road runs southward. Many places are not easy to develop. After entering the city, Zhang Xiu settled down in the prefect''s residence and let Sima Yi, Zhang Song and Pang tong handle their own affairs to stabilize the situation.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the study, it was Wang Yue.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    Wang yuetui opened the door, entered the room and reported: "Your Highness, there is Fei Qing, the prefect of Yueyi County, asking to see you."


    "Oh, our governor of Yueyi county has come back!" Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "before I got the news that the southern barbarians broke qiongdu County of Yueyi County, there was no news about the prefect of Yueyi county. Now, as soon as he got to qiongdu County, he came back. Did you inquire about Fei Qing? "


    Wang Yue said: "as soon as I learned about Fei Qing''s return, I arranged for the royal guards to inquire about the news. At most half an hour, there will be detailed information back. "


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "hang him half an hour!"


    "Here it is


    The more Wang answered, he turned around and arranged.

 Chapter 856

    Outside the prefect''s mansion, a middle-aged man in his early 40s, with a common appearance and a dark complexion, was pacing back and forth.


    This man is Fei Qing, the prefect of Yueyi county.


    His eyes are a little small, not big, giving people the feeling of squinting in general.


    At the moment, Fei Qing''s face was full of worry. When the southern barbarians made trouble, he saw that he could not resist it, so he ordered the people to flee and not stay in the city. In addition, Fei Qing also fled qiongdu county and hid in the countryside.


    When Meng mastiff took the army north to Chengdu, he didn''t come out. When Meng mastiff returned to qiongdu county with his army, Fei Qing didn''t come out. He was hiding all the time.


    When the news of Zhang Xiu''s extermination of the southern barbarians came back, Fei Qing came out. But when he arrived in qiongdu County, Zhang Xiu''s army had been stationed, and Zhang Xiu was sitting in the prefecture.


    The news worried Fei Qing.


    After all, he did not organize the soldiers to resist the southern barbarians, but fled directly.


    Fei Qing stood at the gate of the yamen, pacing back and forth. From time to time, he looked up at the gate of the prefect''s mansion, and wanted to know if anyone came out to inform him.


    After waiting for a long time, no one came, which worried Fei Qing.


    Is the king of Qin going to deal with him?


    "Step on it! Step on


    All of a sudden, a sound of footsteps came from the gate. When Fei Qing heard the sound of footsteps, he immediately picked up his spirits, and then stood up straight with his head held high.


    A soldier came out, looked at Fei Qing and said, "Your Highness is busy with government affairs now. Now wait for your highness


    "Yes, yes!"


    Fei Qing quickly thanks.


    He walked two steps forward, came to the soldier, took out a brocade bag from his sleeve, handed it to the soldier''s hand, and said: "it''s a small idea, it''s not a respect. Please accept it."


    "No!"


    The soldier shook his head.


    They are the bodyguards around Zhang Xiu, and their treatment is excellent. He got Wang Yue''s arrangement to inform Fei Qing. He is not willing to accept this money. If he is held responsible, he will not be able to get away with it.


    Fei Qing was embarrassed.


    Give people money, the other side does not accept.


    It''s embarrassing.


    But the soldier didn''t pay attention to Fei Qing and turned to leave.


    After Fei Qing saw this, he didn''t worry too much. At least Zhang Xiu arranged for a reply. With the passage of time, two quarters of an hour soon disappeared. By this time, Fei Qing was worried. After all, two quarters of an hour had passed.


    That''s enough to handle a lot of things.


    Feiqing went to ask the porter, but the porter did not know. He didn''t get any news, so that he was very nervous, especially the more it came to the end, the more nervous he was.


    After all, Fei Qing doesn''t know what Zhang Xiu will do with him.


    While feiqing is waiting, Zhang Xiu receives the latest news about feiqing sent back by the royal guards. According to the information from the royal guards'' visit, Fei Qing, the governor of Yueyi County, has been in Yueyi County for nearly seven years, which was arranged by Liu Yan earlier.


    During his first year in office, Fei Qing had a lot of heart, intending to reorganize Yueyi county.


    However, in the first year of governance, he encountered several setbacks, and even more, he was robbed by the southern barbarians, which destroyed all of Fei Qing''s arrangements. In particular, Yueyi County itself is barren and difficult to govern.


    Later, Fei Qing ruled by inaction, almost handing over the government affairs of Yueyi county to the assistant officials below.


    If Fei Qing is incompetent, it is not.


    When Fei Qing first took office, he was enthusiastic and willing to govern the local area. He had certain ability.


    It''s just that he''s a little lazy.


    If Fei Qing is corrupt, perverts the law and exploits the common people, Zhang Xiu will directly deal with Fei Qing. However, Fei Qing never bullied the common people, demanded bribes or bought or sold officials during his administration of Yueyi county.


    Generally speaking, he is an honest and upright official.


    But he just didn''t do it.


    Fei Qing''s root lies in his laziness and self abandonment. He thinks Yueyi county is poor and unwilling to think about it. In the end, the whole Yueyi County passed for several years, which was not good or bad, just so common.


    Then Meng mastiff, a southern barbarian, led the soldiers to kill him. Fei Qing first ordered the people to evacuate, and then he also fled.


    It''s only now.


    Zhang Xiu did not get angry after reading all Fei Qing''s materials. Although people like Fei Qing are lazy and have not done anything, they still have a good nature and can be saved.


    Wang Yue said: "Your Highness, Fei Qing is still outside the mansion. Can you see him?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and asked, "how do people comment on Fei Qing''s style?"


    Wang Yue said: "it''s neither good nor bad, but it''s medium. However, some businessmen have a good impression on Fei Qing. Compared with Fei Qing, during his term of office, he did not arbitrarily plunder people''s fat and cream, and he did not arbitrarily levy taxes, so there was little pressure on businessmen. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and nodded, and she already had a worry in her heart.Even though Fei Qing was lazy before, because he had been in Yueyi County for so many years, his understanding of Yueyi county is incomparable. So under this premise, Zhang Xiu is willing to save some.


    It depends on Fei Qing, how to prepare.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu repeatedly said, "let''s hang him for another hour."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu continued to read the news about Fei Qing. Compared with Zhang Xiu, Fei Qing at the gate of the prefect''s residence is eager and nervous.


    It''s cool in September.


    But on his back, there was already a cold sweat coming out and wet his clothes.


    Feiqing wants to come forward and ask the porter to report again, but he thinks that Zhang Xiu has an arrangement before, and he doesn''t dare to disturb Zhang Xiu. He is just a small county governor, in front of Zhang Xiu, it is even the atmosphere dare not breathe.


    Feiqing''s waiting time is getting longer and longer.


    A heart, but also sink down.


    In his mind, he recalled his scenes in Yueyi county. If he worked hard and did his best in Yueyi County for several years, and even resisted the southern barbarians, Fei Qing would not have to worry.


    Because I have a clear conscience!


    But now it''s different. He didn''t resist the southern barbarians at all. He even muddled along these years and didn''t accomplish anything. So he was very frightened and worried that he would be dealt with by Zhang Xiu.


    Fei Qing''s heart, and even had the idea to leave.


    Don''t be an official.


    But in the end, I didn''t have this temper. I was still honest at the door.


    Time goes by little.


    More than an hour passed quickly, Fei Qing and so on already had some backache. But he was still standing at the gate of the prefect''s mansion, looking at the deep gate of the prefect''s mansion, and his face became more and more desolate.


    Fei Qing is very familiar with the prefecture.


    But now it''s all over the place.


    "Step on it! Step on


    All of a sudden, footsteps came from inside. A soldier came out, took a look at Fei Qing and said, "Fei Qing, follow me. The king of Qin wants to see you."


    "Here it is


    Fei Qing keeps up quickly.


    He was happy in his heart. At the same time, his heart was beating, and his heart was more nervous. He followed the soldiers and asked carefully, "little brother, I don''t know how the king of Qin is feeling now."


    He didn''t ask much, just asked Zhang Xiu''s mood, in order to judge Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards him.


    "Don''t ask what you shouldn''t ask!"


    The soldier didn''t give Fei Qing a word in front of him.


    As Zhang Xiu''s bodyguard, the soldiers have such confidence. Even Fei Qing''s official position is much higher than theirs. But these pro guards, who work around Zhang Xiu, don''t have to pay attention to Fei Qing.


    Feiqing was dumb when he heard the soldiers'' words. For a moment, he didn''t know how to speak, but his heart became more nervous. After a while, I came to the study.


    The soldier waved his hand and turned away.


    Feiqing guldong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and straightened his clothes. Then he raised his hand and knocked on the door and said, "feiqing, the prefect of Yueyi County, please see your highness."

 Chapter 857

    Zhang Xiu said, "come in!"


    Feiqing heard Zhang Xiu''s words, then pushed the door open and stepped into the study. The layout of the study, as well as all the layout, is his arrangement.


    Fei Qing is very familiar with his study. But now when Zhang Xiu was in the room, he felt nervous and felt that there was a repressive atmosphere in the air, which made him unbearable.


    When Fei Qing entered, he glanced at Zhang Xiu with the corner of his eye. Seeing Zhang Xiu so young, I was shocked. When he was the prefect of Yueyi County, he was older than Zhang Xiu.


    Now, he has wasted several years in Yueyi county. Although he is not very old, in fact, in his own opinion, he is very old.


    Fei Qing went to the study, lifted up his robe and knelt down, saying: "my lord Fei Qing, meet your Royal Highness the king of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said, "are you Fei Qing?"


    "Yes


    Fei Qing nodded.


    Zhang Xiu said again, "are you Fei Qing who escaped without fighting?"


    Feiqing''s face changed greatly.


    Fei Qing fled without fighting, which is well known to the people of Yueyi county. Zhang Xiu''s inquiry is more sharp and murderous, which makes Fei Qing worried.


    This is the attitude of asking the guilty!


    On Fei Qing''s forehead, the sweat oozed out. When he knelt on the ground, his body trembled slightly. The look on his face was even more worrying.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you are Fei Qing, who has been in office for seven years, but has no achievements?"


    "I''m guilty!"


    Fei Qing kowtowed to the ground and pleaded guilty.


    At this time, he felt uneasy, because every word of Zhang Xiu poked in the problems he was facing. In particular, all these things are real and there has never been any fallacy.


    Zhang Xiu asked again, "what''s wrong with you pleading guilty?"


    This is a rhetorical question.


    Fei Qing was completely afraid at this time. Zhang Xiu made such a show. He was worried and said respectfully: "report back to the king of Qin. There were two major crimes during his term of office."


    "First, the lower officials did not act and ignored government affairs, so that there was no change in Yueyi county."


    "Second, when he met the southern barbarians, he did not organize resistance. He ran away and abandoned thousands of people."


    Fei Qing''s head had been put on the ground, and he said in a deep voice: "I''m guilty and willing to be punished."


    At this moment, Fei Qing had no chance.


    When Liu Yan and Liu Zhang were there, regardless of the others, it was enough that Yueyi county was subordinate to Yizhou and no one was in trouble. But it''s obviously impossible for Zhang to embroider here.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want such a person.


    So he was nervous.


    Zhang Xiu stands up, walks to Fei Qing''s front, raises the foot to kick out. Just listen to the sound of a PA, kick in Fei Qing''s body, Fei Qing fell back to the ground, but his heart is a hope.


    It doesn''t matter that Zhang Xiu beat and scolded.


    As long as Zhang Xiu gets angry, he will have a chance and will not be charged. If Zhang Xiu really wants to ask for a crime, in a word, he will be miserable.


    Fei Qing quickly knelt down again and solemnly said, "tell the king of Qin that although he is not doing his duty, he is greedy for life and afraid of death. But once upon a time, I wanted to run Yueyi County well. "


    "At that time, the lower official wrote to Liu Yan, asking him to allocate money and then troops."


    "The purpose of allocating money is to provide relief to the people and develop agriculture. At the same time, we should open ditches, cut mountains and forests, build bridges and pave roads, so as to make the people rich."


    "The purpose of allocating troops is to resist the southern barbarians who often invade Yueyi County, ensure that Yueyi county will not be attacked by the southern barbarians, and ensure the safety of thousands of people in Yueyi county."


    "However, the proposal of the lower official was rejected by Liu Yan."


    Fei Qing put his head on the ground and continued: "when Liu Zhang took over, the lower officials also wrote that they wanted Liu Zhang to dispatch troops and money, but they were rejected again. With the help of the subordinate alone, without any support, the subordinate is also a skillful woman. It''s hard to make bricks without rice. I''m lazy and afraid of death. I have no choice but to do something wrong. Your highness, please learn from me. "


    Earlier, he pleaded guilty.


    But Zhang Xiu kicked him and made him feel that Zhang Xiu hated iron but not steel, so he dared to say what he wanted.


    This is the reason for his laziness and inaction.


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said, "Liu Yan and Liu Zhang refuse. Should you abandon yourself? You are also a scholar. You should know that a scholar cultivates himself, governs the country and the world. You have been in Yueyi County for many years. You should know how hard it is for thousands of Han people in Yueyi county to live. But you have become a turtle with a shrunken head, which makes me shameless. "


    Fei Qing immediately said, "King Qin Mingjian, please give me a chance to commit crimes. I understand Yueyi county. I''m willing to benefit the people. Please give me a chance. "


    At this point, if Fei Qing did not understand Zhang Xiu''s painstaking efforts, he would be a prefect in vain.


    He knew that Zhang Xiu didn''t kill him.


    There is no idea of punishment.Therefore, Fei Qing took advantage of the situation to beg for mercy and hoped to be able to commit crimes.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and looked down at Fei Qing and said, "you want to govern the place. You''d better talk about how to govern this big Yueyi county."


    Feiqing zhengse way: "return report to go to, lower official want to govern Yue Yi County, there are three aspects of thinking."


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Fei Qinglang said: "first, a few years ago, coal and stone were mined from Nanyang County, which can be burned for heating. Nowadays, there are many people in Yizhou


    "I have coal and stone in Yueyi county."


    "In addition, there are countless big trees in Yueyi County, which can be cut down to make charcoal. Not only that, cutting down trees can also open up wasteland for more people to cultivate. "


    "The first thought of the lower officials was to exploit coal, stone and charcoal as the financial resources of Yueyi county. Even if we have the rest of the coal and stone and coal, we can at least make money by selling them on a large scale in Yueyi county. "


    "Even, it can recruit countless people to make a living."


    Feiqing continued: "second, I have a group of farmers in Yueyi county. These people used to plant winter vegetables for Liu Yan in Yueyi county to supply vegetables for Liu Yan. "


    "I''m going to expand the greenhouse."


    "Recruit more people to grow more vegetables, and then sell them in a unified way."


    "In this way, we must seek profits."


    "In the whole territory of Yizhou, there is no one selling such vegetables for the time being. Building a greenhouse, though, costs a lot. But now with coal and stone, it will reduce costs. In addition, the farmers in Yueyi county have rich experience and can constantly reduce costs and earn more profits. "


    Fei Qing said in a deep voice: "even if you don''t make money, it''s good for the people to maintain the balance."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    It''s not easy.


    Fei Qing''s idea, in fact, is Zhang Xiu in Bajun, let the law is the idea. Because today''s Fazheng also needs to mine coal and stone in Bajun, and expand greenhouses.


    Fei Qing continued, "as for the third point, it''s building roads and bridges. In today''s Yueyi County, the main roads are not very smooth. The plan of the lower officials is to build roads to connect the main areas so as to facilitate the transportation of goods. "


    "In fact, there should be a fourth point."


    "That''s to increase the number of troops to protect the security of the whole county."


    "Today, however, the main Nanman tribal leaders, such as Meng mastiff, King Dosi, King mulu, and wutugu, have all been killed, and the security of the whole Yueyi county is no longer worried."


    "So there is no fourth point."


    Fei Qing solemnly said: "this is the ruling plan of the lower official, but it needs a lot of money to support it. Your highness, please learn from it."

 Chapter 858

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes also showed approval.


    Fei Qing, it''s not easy.


    Because Fei Qing''s whole plan is closely linked. Through the first and second plans, the economy of Yuelin county will be developed on a large scale. The third scheme is to ensure that all places can communicate with each other, which is the key to ensure that goods can be sold.


    In fact, the detailed arrangement of Fei Qing''s every plan is a huge project, which is not simple. If we really want to implement these three things, it is impossible to accomplish them without a certain time.


    Zhang Xiu returned to the seat floor, looking at Fei Qing kneeling on the ground, said: "you get up and talk."


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Fei Qing stood up, relieved.


    It''s safe.


    He knew he was safe.


    In the same way, he also knew that Zhang Xiu was not a peaceful person, but a person who was ready to really govern the place. Otherwise, it is impossible to exonerate him just by what he said just now.


    In fact, what he said earlier was the governance plan he had conceived in Yueyi County for many years. However, when Liu Yan and Liu Zhang were in power, they were worried about his strength and were not willing to give support.


    Today, Zhang Xiu is different.


    Feiqing''s heart was dim, and he had expectations, because he might be able to show his ambition in Yueyi county.


    Zhang Xiu put her hand on the desk, gently knocked and asked, "if you continue to govern Yueyi County, can you complete your ruling plan in a few years?"


    "As short as five years, as long as seven years."


    Feiqing did not want to answer directly.


    This is his estimate of time..


    In the early years, he thought that within three years, it could be carried out according to his plan. But in fact, when he saw a lot of local problems, he knew that it was not an easy thing to govern local areas, and it took quite a long time to complete.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said in a deep voice: "if you can manage Yueyi county according to your plan within five years, I will transfer you to Chang''an as an official. If you can complete the plan within seven years, I will appoint you as the governor of Yizhou to govern the land of one state. "


    "I will give you the money you need."


    "This time, the southern barbarian troops such as Meng mastiff and mulu King were exterminated, and a large number of treasures were found in the city. I will not take any of these treasures. They are all kept in the Treasury for your use. "


    "So, you can do it?"


    Zhang Xiu asked, because in the current situation, there are Meng mastiff, mulu king, Duosi king and so on. The money, grain and so on, which are enough for the start-up and the turnover of feiqing.


    Fei Qing said, "don''t worry, your highness. I will do my best to live up to your Highness''s high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and then turned back.


    For Zhang Xiu, if Fei Qing can really make Yue Yi county a great ruler, then it is worth giving Fei Qing an important position. Because today''s Yueyi county is located in the south, and there are many barbarians, it is not an easy thing to solve.


    Frankly speaking, it is more difficult than Fazheng.


    After all, Bajun, where Fazheng was located, was relatively peaceful, with few barbarians and relatively convenient governance.


    Yueyi county is different.


    Many places here are sparsely populated, and the main population is concentrated in cities and towns.


    So Zhang Xiu planted a seed, hoping to take root in Yueyi county. After arranging Fei Qing''s affairs, he didn''t stay in the prefect''s residence. He took Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and others to leave and went straight to the barracks.


    This is a place for Fei Qingteng.


    Let Fei Qing sit in the prefect''s office and quickly set things right.


    Today''s Yueyi County, there is no big problem, just need a little adjustment.


    Back at the camp, when Zhang Xiu was dealing with the affairs of the Chinese army, Wang Yue reported: "Your Highness, Ren an asks to see you."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows.


    Ren an was born in Yizhou and a great Confucian at the end of Han Dynasty. Although Ren an''s reputation is not as good as Zheng Xuan''s, in fact, in Yizhou, Ren an is the biggest Confucian.


    Ren an is now more than 70 years old, nearly 80 years old. Such a person is equal to the reputation of a person. He can see the official without paying homage. It''s just that Zhang Xiu was a little surprised. She didn''t expect Ren an to come to Yueyi county.


    In particular, Ren an has been living in seclusion in Mianzhu to teach knowledge. Throughout the territory of Yizhou, countless taxis were all Ren an''s students. It is not surprising to say that he was in the territory of Yizhou, and his family members were all over the counties.


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart, then she got up and said, "let''s go. I''ll welcome you in person."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue should go down and walk out of the camp with Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu walked out of the camp, she arrived at the gate of the camp. His eyes fell on an old man in coarse linen, with a clear face, sparse hair and slightly bent back.


    This is Ren an.


    Although Ren an''s hair was sparse and he was dressed in coarse linen, his whole body was neat and tidy.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Ren an, she arched her hand and said, "Zhang Xiu, I''ve seen Duke Ding!"Ren an, the name of Ding Zu.


    Zhang Xiu is familiar with history and knows Ren an''s words. As the king of Qin, he called Ren an the Duke of dingzu, which was enough to show Ren an''s face.


    Ren an arched his hand and said solemnly, "I''ve seen the king of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Duke Ding, please!"


    "Please


    Ren an waved his hand.


    He has a smile on his face and a strong voice. There is no sign of aging. It gives people a full sense of Zhongqi. Even he has a refined bearing.


    This is the expression of poetry and calligraphy.


    Zhang Xiu takes Ren an to the camp, and the guests and the hosts take their seats. Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and asked directly, "Duke Ding lived in seclusion in Mianzhu, lecturing and preaching. How did he go south to Yueyi county?"


    Ren an stroked his beard with a smile and said, "so that the king of Qin can know that there are two things about the old man coming to Yueyi county. In fact, originally, there was only one thing. Now, there are two things. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s OK to talk about the Duke of dingzu."


    Ren an zhengse said: "the first thing is about starting a scholar''s career. I heard from the taxi that his highness had set up Chang''an Academy in Chang''an to recruit more scholars to take part in the imperial examination. I don''t know when I will become a scholar in Yizhou? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t worry, Duke Ding. It''s already going on."


    But the academy is not enough to attract talents. I sincerely hope that his highness can set up academies in Yizhou to be responsible for preaching and teaching. Although Lao Jiu lived in seclusion to give lectures, after all, one person was not strong enough. If there are academies run by the government in Yizhou, it will be of great benefit to the scholars of Yizhou. "


    Zhang Xiu took the opportunity to say: "what Duke Ding said is very reasonable. It is the proper intention to set up academies and recruit more scholars. I hope that Duke dingzu will be the president of the Academy. "


    Ren an shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I am willing to teach in the Academy. As the president, it is unnecessary. I''m getting older this year, and I don''t have a good memory. In the evening, even several times to urinate. Old people don''t have enough energy. The president should be chosen by his highness. I''m willing to coach and make a small contribution. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu knows that Ren an is sincere.


    This is a man of no selfishness.


    Zhang Xiu was very respectful and said, "since Duke Ding said so, I don''t want to ask for it. However, Duke Ding had been in Yizhou for many years and was familiar with the situation. But when the government wants to prepare for the establishment of the Academy, I don''t know whether Ding Zugong can be chosen as the president of the academy? "


    After hearing this, Ren an frowned slightly. If he recommended a candidate, once Zhang Xiu adopted it, it would be easy for people to think that he deliberately arranged for the dean of the academy to come.


    He recommends people who are close to him.

 Chapter 859

    After thinking about it, Ren an shook his head and said, "although there are many famous people in Yizhou, there are also many learned people. But most of them have become officials under the command of the king of Qin. "


    "As for the rest of the people, although they are ready to become officials, it is certainly not possible for them to set up academies."


    "In the current situation, your highness can only arrange someone to be the dean of the Academy. If you hear about it, you can be the head of the Academy


    Ren an said: "in this way, the academies in Yizhou can be established."


    Zhang Xiu immediately laughed.


    In front of Ren an, he is a pure gentleman, without any selfishness.


    Zhang xiudao said: "since the Duke Ding said so, I will write a letter to Chang''an academy, so that the great scholars of the academy can come to Yizhou to run the school and take charge of the affairs of Yizhou Academy."


    Ren an stroked his beard and said, "great goodness!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "there are two things for Duke dingzu to come here. What about the second thing?"


    Ren an said, "the second thing I''ve done is about the southern barbarians."


    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold and said in a deep voice: "Duke Ding heard that our king slaughtered the southern barbarians. Now he comes to qiongdu county to fight for the southern barbarians. Even the Duke of dingzu thought, "did the king kill anything?"


    "No!"


    Ren an shakes his head and talks.


    Zhang Xiu''s face is a little bit slow, ask a way: "Oh, this king wishes to hear its detailed."


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have the slightest regret for the massacre of the southern barbarians. Because he wanted to kill the southern barbarians and let the barbarians in the southern counties of Yizhou and some other wild people in the mountains know that once they go out of the mountains and rob the Han people, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    This is to kill the chicken and frighten the monkey.


    This point, no matter!


    Ren an, with a soft look, said: "when I was old and young, I traveled to the south of Yizhou and witnessed the Han people in the south. My life was quite miserable."


    "Originally, their life was not so good. From time to time, there are also Southern barbarians out of the mountains to plunder, which makes the common people even worse and make life difficult. "


    "The king of Qin slaughtered the southern barbarians and shocked all the southern barbarians."


    "It should be done."


    Ren an said: "what I want to talk about is the governance of the southern barbarians and the stability of the whole southern Yizhou. Unless the king of Qin can destroy the whole Nanman tribe and make Nanman disappear. "


    "But countless Southern barbarians are hiding in the mountains. Many of them have never been out of the mountains."


    "It''s not easy to destroy Nanman."


    "Therefore, the old proposal is to use hegemonic means to wipe out the southern barbarians who plundered the Han people, that is, the way the king of Qin slaughtered the barbarians before. Now, by means of kingly means, the rest of the southern barbarians who have not come out of the mountains are attached to them. "


    "The long-term way is to combine kindness and authority, to give priority to kingliness and to supplement hegemony."


    Ren an said: "so I think that after the king of Qin slaughtered the southern barbarians, he could issue corresponding gentle policies to give them many benefits, encourage them to come out of the mountains and make them return. Only in this way can the rebellion of Nanman be gradually disintegrated. Otherwise, there will be no peace in the south of Yizhou. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded slightly.


    Ren an once again said, "well, the first thing I did was to go down to see the king of Qin. After entering Yueyi County, I heard that the king of Qin killed tens of thousands of Southern barbarians. If the old man''s words are not right, please take them as the old man''s wordy words and laugh them off. "


    But Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn and respectful.


    What Ren an said is a mature plan.


    Governance of a country''s political affairs is the combination of yin and Yang, and the long-term way is to assist the overlord.


    Zhang Xiu has a good impression of Ren an. Because Ren an didn''t rely on the old to sell the old, and he didn''t want to teach Zhang Xiu a lesson, but sincerely considered for her.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu''s attitude also eased down and said with a smile: "the admonishment of Duke Ding is in Zhang Xiu''s mind. Thank you for your kindness."


    Ren an said, "the king of Qin praised me falsely."


    Zhang xiudao said: "the remarks made by Ding Zu Gonggang can be called morning bell and evening drum. Duke dingzu was proficient in the way of governance and was able to govern local governments. Now I just need a sea god needle like Duke Ding. I don''t know if Duke Ding is willing to leave Yizhou and go to Chang''an to serve under my command. "


    Ren an shook his head and said, "the king of Qin is kind-hearted. However, old age, has been difficult to toss. The old man''s wish is to preach and teach in the Academy, and he will be satisfied. "


    "Oh, what a pity!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed.


    As a matter of fact, he likes Ren an very much. This kind of people have no distractions and are more reliable and reassuring.


    Ren an said: "I don''t know how long I can live when I am old. Even to serve under the command of the king of Qin is a waste of food and time. It is better to preach and teach than to do so. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the great wish of Ding Zu is admirable."They talked again, but Ren an didn''t stay much, so he got up and left.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t delay her time. Even if there was a letter, she asked Wang Yue to give it to the royal guards and send it back to Chang''an as soon as possible to Xu Shu, so that Xu Shu could connect with Yang Biao of Chang''an academy, so as to arrange the establishment of the Academy in Yizhou.


    However, this matter, Zhang Xiu is to do a certain adjustment.


    Since the establishment of academies is not limited to Yizhou, Liangzhou, Jingzhou and other places should be included, and academies directly belonging to Chang''an academies should be established, so as to maximize the cultivation of scholars.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    After dealing with this matter, Zhang Xiu is idle for the time being.


    After Zhang Yan and Zhang Ren''s troops were rehabilitated in qiongdu County, everything returned to calm. Zhang Xiu has been stationed for three days, which can be regarded as a platform for feiqing. When everything in qiongdu county is stable, Zhang Xiu leads his troops to the north and no longer goes south to Qianwei County, Fuke county and other places.


    When it comes to the Crusades in these places, Zhang Xiu is not going to lead the troops in person.


    These places are remote, even if it is to crusade, it is not an easy thing, but also to spend countless time, so Zhang Xiu is not willing to spend time on these things.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived in Chengdu, Guoyuan had already arrived.


    Guoyuan is the new governor of Yizhou.


    Guoyuan has its own methods and strategies for local governance. In particular, today''s Yizhou is completely subordinated to Zhang Xiu, so Guoyuan doesn''t worry much about the whole situation of Yizhou.


    After he took office, he quickly found out the situation and made adjustments to the policies promulgated one by one.


    After meeting with Guoyuan, Zhang Xiu inquired about wuximan and finally said, "regarding the governance of Yizhou, Yanpu is in Hanzhong, Fazheng is in Bajun, feiqing is in Yueyi, and other counties have made adjustments. Today''s Yizhou territory, the foundation is not bad. The biggest problem is road traffic. When you are in office, try to solve this problem well. "


    Guoyuan said: "don''t worry, your highness. You should do your best in your humble position. When you have a clear understanding of the traffic problems in various counties of Yizhou, you will make overall planning and will not disappoint your highness. "


    "I believe you!" said Zhang Xiu


    When Zhang Xiu talked with Guoyuan, the army was temporarily stationed.


    After Zhang Xiu talks with Guoyuan and Guoyuan leaves, Zhang Xiu calls Pang Tong and Sima Yi.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now in Yizhou, although it has been calmed down. But in fact, there are still many places in Yizhou that are not calm. For example, Qianwei County, Fuke County, and even all parts of the South need to be pacified. "


    "To go north this time, we must leave an army and take charge of Chengdu."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you suggest?"


    Pang Tong said: "Your Highness, I think you can leave general Zhang Ren to guard. First, Zhang Ren is his Highness''s elder martial brother. With this kind of relationship, your highness can rest assured. Second, most of Zhang Ren''s soldiers were from Yizhou. They are natives. It''s not appropriate for them to travel a long way. So I think it''s most appropriate to leave Zhang Ren in town. "


    Sima Yi said: "I agree with Pang Shangshu''s suggestion. Zhang Ren is loyal and good at leading soldiers to fight. It is the most appropriate arrangement to let him take charge of Chengdu and then dispatch troops to clean up all parties. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu agreed.


    After discussing the details with them, he asked them to step down and arrange to invite Zhang Ren and Yan Yan to the Chinese army.

 Chapter 860

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "today''s Yizhou has been basically settled, although there are still some small problems in the remaining counties. But the king''s army can''t stay all the time. So the king wanted to arrange troops to be stationed in Yizhou. "


    When she spoke, Zhang Xiu stared at Zhang Ren and said, "the loyal army led by elder martial brother not only has enough fighting power, but also is loyal. Your loyal army, who is in charge of Chengdu, is responsible for the stability of Yizhou and mopping up all parties. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren should hold his fist.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged Zhang Ren, her eyes turned and fell on Yan Yan. She said in a deep voice, "Yan Yan, you used to work under the command of elder martial brother. Now, the elder martial brother is staying in Yizhou. You are transferred from the elder martial brother''s command and go north with our king. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Yan Yan heard the speech and replied solemnly.


    His heart is happy, because if he stays with Zhang Ren, it means that he has few opportunities to make contributions since then, and it is difficult to get promoted.


    But he will go north with Zhang Xiu. Next, Zhang Xiu will fight all over the world, and he will definitely take part in it.


    This is an opportunity for him to make contributions.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down and arrange it!"


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren and Yan Yan retired together.


    After they walked out together, Zhang Ren said with a smile: "brother Yan, congratulations. Now I''m going north with your highness. This is a good opportunity for you to make contributions. When the world arrives, maybe brother Yan''s achievements will be higher than mine. "


    Yan Yan said: "borrow General Zhang''s auspicious words."


    After a pause, Yan Yan continued: "I''m also very surprised. I didn''t expect that his highness would arrange for me personally. Once under the command of Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang ignored me. But when I submit to his highness, he can think of me, which is very touching. "


    Zhang Ren said with a light smile, "Your Highness is famous for his courtesy. There are no idle people under your highness. I hope to see you next time. You can lead an army alone


    "Hope!"


    Yan Yan replied with a smile.


    They went into the army with a smile and arranged for the follow-up.


    After resting in Chengdu for two days, Zhang Xiu''s army continued to go north.


    By this time it was October.


    The weather is getting colder.


    When Zhang Xiu was going north, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu in a hurry and reported: "Your Highness, I just received the news from the French prefect. It''s the most urgent news."


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and read it quickly. He read it at a glance. When he finished reading it, a smile appeared on his face and he couldn''t help laughing.


    Yes!


    Sweet potato seedlings have matured.


    In the west of Hanchang County, a sweet potato seedling produced six sweet potatoes.


    Zhang Xiu was so happy that she said, "come and invite Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Zhang song."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yuexi Zizi to arrange.


    The royal guards under his command know the situation of different places, and they know that sweet potato has been harvested and the fruits of sweet potato. After a while, Sima Yi, Pang Tong and Zhang song came. Together, they saluted Zhang Xiu. Pang Tong took the initiative to say, "Your Highness, what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "when I was in Hanchang County before, I found a sweet potato seedling, but now I have got a harvest."


    Pang Tong said, "what''s the harvest like?"


    At the moment, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and Zhang song all looked forward to it. When she was in Hanchang County, Zhang Xiu once said that the sweet potato harvest was excellent, and the yield per mu reached more than 5000 Jin.


    No matter Pang Tong, Sima Yi or Zhang song, they all have some doubts. Because one mu of land can yield more than 5000 Jin per mu, which is simply horrible, even impossible.


    It''s almost incredible.


    Zhang Xiu handed the letter to Pang Tong and said, "look at it!"


    Pang Tong looked at it and handed it to Sima Yi and Zhang song. When they finished, they all looked surprised. No one thought that the sweet potato seedling produced six sweet potatoes. The biggest one weighed five Jin, and the smallest one weighed two Jin.


    On average, six sweet potatoes are nearly 20 jin.


    It''s terrifying.


    Pang Tong took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, is this true or false?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s impossible to fake such a thing. Because next year, when large-scale planting is carried out, it is necessary to measure the yield per mu. Who dares to cheat on such a big event? "


    Pang Tong said: "Your Highness is wise. If you can really reach such a level, then the territory of Qin will no longer be threatened by hunger. At least the people will not starve to death."


    Zhang song was also shocked and said, "this is your highness, God bless Daqin."


    Sima Yi said: "I hope that more seedlings will be cultivated in Hanchang county this year. When they are mature, some of them will be transplanted to Guanzhong, Liangzhou, Yizhou and other places, so as to increase the harvest of the people."Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this thing is going on. But for the time being, wait for the result of Fazheng. Ba County, there is a law is watching, Wang rest assured


    A group of people, talking and laughing, continued to go north.


    After leaving Chengdu, when you go all the way north and pass jianmendao, you slow down a little. When you go north and enter Hanzhong, you can speed up your journey. When Zhang Xiu returned to Chang''an, it was already at the end of November, and the weather was getting colder.


    Coal and stone have been used everywhere to keep warm and dispel the chill.


    In November, it began to snow in Chang''an. It''s rare for Zhang Xiu to have a rest in Chang''an this winter. Looking back last winter, because of the turmoil in Liangzhou, Zhang Xiu led a large army to attack Liangzhou. It was quite difficult to march in the ice and snow.


    Now, I''m finally relieved.


    Zhang Xiu''s army also began to recuperate. Zhang Xiu also has time to accompany her son and many wives and daughters. Now Zhang Xiu has gone to Yizhou, and there is another woman named Wu amaranth.


    Compared with other women, Wu amaranth is very gentle and quiet.


    Up to now, Zhang Xiu is surrounded by many women, including his wife Huang Yueying, Cao Jie, duo''er, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Zhen MI and Wu amaranth. This is an extraordinary lineup.


    Any one is beautiful.


    Today, Zhang Cheng is more than three years old. He can run and jump everywhere. He is just like a little devil in the palace of King Qin. He brings endless joy to the palace of King Qin. Although it''s grinding, it''s also joyful.


    Zhang Xiu accompanies the girls and often teases her son. Time flies, and it''s the end of the year.


    On this day, after Zhang Xiu got up early and finished her morning exercise, she went straight to her study and arranged for someone to call Xu Shu and Liu ba.


    Today''s Xu Shu is more and more dignified and sophisticated.


    Even Liu Ba is calm.


    Two people in charge of the official department and one in charge of the household department are the two most important people under Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at them and said, "now the new year is coming. The rush of a year can be slowed down a little. It''s time to rush around for a year and get something. How about this year''s financial situation


    When Liu Ba heard this, he blinked.


    It''s a big jump. I just talked about a year''s rush. Suddenly, it comes to the financial situation of the Ministry of household. Fortunately, Liu Ba is not worried about the situation of the Department of accounts.

 Chapter 861

    Liu Ba said: "Your Highness, although many wars have taken place this year, countless money and food have been consumed. However, after Yizhou and Jingzhou''s finance closed up, this year''s fiscal balance was huge. In the current situation, even if your Highness has been fighting for another two years in a row, there will be no problem. Our foundation has become more and more solid. "


    Xu Shu said with a smile: "in particular, the way of imperial examination has been gradually extended to all parts of the country. With the prosperity of the imperial examination, every county was appointed by Chang''an. In terms of Chang''an, its control over various places has been strengthened. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded when she heard this.


    This is the advantage of starting a new career, constantly promoting talents and strengthening control over various places.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "since the control of all over the country is strengthened, at the same time, the account department has sufficient balance. At the end of this year, the Ministry of household will allocate funds to all the civil servants and military generals under the rule of Qin state, whether they are the most ordinary soldiers, or the ministers, and all the officials in the government system. As a reward, the monthly salary will be increased. "


    "Ah


    When Liu Ba heard this, he couldn''t help exclaiming.


    He frowned.


    Although such a thing is a wonderful thing, after all, he is also an official himself. It is wonderful that he can get an extra month''s salary. But the problem is that he is in charge of the Ministry of accounts. As the Minister of the Ministry of accounts, when the Ministry of accounts has surplus money, it''s nothing. But once the money is in short supply, how can it be distributed?


    Liu Ba immediately said, "Your Highness, I''m against your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Liu Ba said in a deep voice: "it is the best for your highness to give civil and military generals an extra month''s salary. This is your Highness''s benevolent heart. But the problem is that once this example is opened, it will form a convention. "


    "This year, what about next year?"


    "And the year after that?"


    "It''s nothing if we have fiscal surplus every year. But in case of a bad financial year, it will not be easy to handle. Therefore, I think that I would rather not pay double monthly salary than open this Convention. "


    Liu Ba made suggestions.


    Xu Shu said, "I don''t agree with Liu Shangshu''s suggestion."


    At this time, Xu Shu spoke against it.


    His eyes were wise and he said in a deep voice: "the payment of two months'' salary is just the intention of your highness, not other things. Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor. If the people below think that the salary for two months this year will be given every year, it is a lack of people''s will. Such a person is simply ashamed of his Highness''s kindness. "


    Liu Ba said: "this is too superficial, human nature is greedy."


    At this point, the expression on Liu BA''s face was very serious. He solemnly said: "everyone has the desire to be a magistrate, and wants to be a prefect. When he is a prefect, he also wants to be an official in the center. Now, given the salary of two months, the officials of Qin State will expect how much money they will pay next time. If they don''t, they will fall behind. "


    Xu Shu shook his head and said, "Liu Shangshu, you just said that you are looking forward to the next time. This time, I have paid money, and has the final say. "Your Highness has the final say."


    "What''s more, when the bimonthly salary was paid, the notice issued can be said that his highness only paid the bimonthly salary because he sympathized with the hardship of the officials."


    "In this way, the officials and soldiers of the state of Qin have nothing to say."


    After a pause, Xu Shu continued: "you say that human nature is greedy, which I agree with. There is nothing to question. But in fact, although people are greedy, they are also the driving force for them to work hard. If they don''t come up with achievements and don''t want to be promoted, where will they work hard? It happens that his Highness''s two-month salary is the greatest encouragement to officials. "


    "Your Highness, please judge!"


    Xu Shu turned to look at Zhang Xiu and bowed his hand.


    "Your Highness, please judge!"


    Liu Ba also looked at Zhang Xiu and bowed his hands.


    The current situation, two people have a dispute, can only ask Zhang Xiu this referee consideration.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was calm, not impatient, and said: "it''s not a hard thing to choose. What Yuan Zhi said is reasonable, and what Zi Chu said is also reasonable, but each has its own stand. "


    "But I won''t think about what the people below think."


    "What I want to do is to let everyone know that I have worked hard for my king for one year. I have not forgotten them, but I still remember their hard work."


    "As for those who are greedy and unsatisfied, yes! But I believe it''s just a handful. "


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said: "this matter is settled like this. This month at the end of the new year will be paid according to the salary of two months. As for whether it will continue next year, it depends on the financial balance of next year."


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba and Xu Shu should go down together.


    When Zhang Xiu made a decision, they stopped talking.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "after the Ministry of household funds, the Bi monthly salary at the end of the year must be distributed in place. Chang''an is the center of the city. There must be no problem. However, when it comes to local officials, they must make repeated orders to prohibit embezzlement. I''ll make it clear to you first. Once it comes to embezzling the salaries of officials, there will be no amnesty for killing them! ""Here it is


    Xu Shu and Liu Baqi should go down together.


    It''s not a small thing.


    Xu Shu said, "Your Highness, I have a suggestion about this matter."


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Xu Shuchen reported: "since this policy is to be implemented in the whole territory of Qin state. I sincerely request that the royal guards of Wang Yue be mobilized to issue notices to all parts of the Qin Kingdom. In this way, both the officials and the soldiers know about it. If an official bucks it, it will certainly arouse public anger, and no one will dare to risk the world''s great injustice. "


    "Not right!"


    Liu Ba retorted and said, "Your Highness, the state of Qin rewarded all the officials. But what do people think when they see such things? The imperial court was kind to the officials and gave them all kinds of awards. But what about the people? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Zichu, you have fallen into a misunderstanding."


    "First, the tax paid by the imperial court to the local people has been reduced, which is good for the people. Second, there are soldiers and assistant officials in many people''s homes, and these people are also paid twice a month. "


    "So people don''t complain."


    Zhang Xiuding said: "what''s more, the officials are responsible for protecting the territory and the people, and the soldiers are responsible for defending the land and the country. They have worked hard, but they also bear the risk. Give them two months'' salary, who dares to say more. "


    "Your Highness," said Liu Ying Ming


    At this point, Liu Ba doesn''t have to say much. He just needs to carry on according to this plan.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I will arrange for Wang Yue to spread the notice to the world. Let''s all go down and take care of this. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba and Xu Shu should go down together.


    After Liu Ba and Xu Shu left, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for someone to inform Wang Yue.


    After a while, Wang Yue entered.


    Wang Yue looked solemn and respectful: "Your Highness!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately said the announcement over and over again, and finally said: "inform all localities of the matter, and arrange it as soon as possible. The royal guards are all over the state of Qin. We should let everyone know the news in the shortest time. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answered and said happily, "Your Highness, now there is another great joy."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the big joy?"


    Wang Yue said: "just now, I just received a letter from the royal guards and found a gold mine in the territory of Guanghan county. Now the government has sent troops to garrison. In addition, the royal guards in Guanghan county have also been stationed. The discovery of this gold mine is not short of money in Qin state. Your Highness''s Treasury can also be greatly enriched. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose, showing a happy look.


    That''s good news.


    Unexpectedly, as soon as his front foot left Yizhou, a gold mine was discovered in his back foot.

 Chapter 862

    To master gold is to master money vein, which is the key.


    Zhang Xiu thought about the gold mine. After a moment, she said, "there should be no mistakes in the mining of gold mine. All the people of the royal guards under your command are closely watched by me. Who dares to take advantage of it? There is no amnesty for killing. "


    "Here it is


    The more respectful Wang was, the more respectful he was.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and arrange it."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu sits alone in the room, but she is thinking. With a gold mine in his hands, he has the opportunity to control local prices, but Zhang Xiu is not satisfied with it. He thinks of more.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu had been fighting all over the world.


    In fact, there are few times to recuperate. Now, in the cold winter, Zhang Xiu''s first thought is the bank, which is the best way to raise funds and do things on a large scale with the help of private people''s funds.


    After Zhang Xiu thought of this, she kept thinking about the details in her heart. Because in order to set up a bank, it is necessary to involve the exchange of cash and pawn bills. If there is not enough good management, it will be in vain.


    This is a necessary step.


    After Zhang Xiu had an idea in her heart, she immediately arranged for someone to inform Li Yan, Minister of the Ministry of industry, to see her.


    Soon, Li Yan entered.


    Today, Li Yan has been the Minister of the Ministry of industry. He is very clear about all the affairs of the Ministry of industry. In particular, many fortifications are involved in various places. It seems that Li Yan''s work department does not have much power. In fact, it is a very busy department. He is almost too busy. He seldom has time to rest.


    Li Yan bowed and said, "Your Highness!"


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Li Yan said thanks and sat down honestly.


    Zhang Xiu did not beat around the Bush and said directly, "how is the Xuan paper technique going today? Is there any other papermaking technology and other materials? "


    "Yes!"


    Li Yan was clear about papermaking.


    He replied: "today''s papermaking technology is not limited to rice paper in the past. Other materials such as mulberry bark, wheat straw and Bean Stalk have been used. In today''s situation, there are more choices of paper, and the quality of paper is better. "


    "Very good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed a smile of approval and said, "go down!"


    Li Yan was a little confused.


    Is that the only thing?


    Just for such a thing, if you need to summon him in person, you can get the latest news about Xuan paper by arranging someone to ask.


    Li Yan was puzzled, but he didn''t ask much. He turned around and left in a hurry. He is a busy man now. Even at the end of the year, even in cold weather, there are many things to be arranged.


    Zhang Xiu inquired Li Yan at the moment, and knew that the matter of cash for bills could be solved.


    At the beginning, he thought about issuing paper money.


    But now the conditions are not ripe.


    We need to slow down.


    Because it is quite difficult to change all the trading methods at one time, so that everyone will no longer use the five baht money to trade, or even impossible to promote.


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is to go ahead slowly. First, she will prepare to build a bank to carry out large and small transactions by cashing bills, so that people can deposit and withdraw money. At present, banks are similar to banks.


    Wait until the banks in the form of banks are gradually improved, and then proceed to the next step. It''s obviously not easy to stutter a fat man. Zhang Xiu has enough patience to push forward.


    Zhang Xiu took out the rice paper, dipped her pen in ink, and began to write about the establishment of a bank. From the exchange notes of bank transactions, such as gold and copper, there are gold and copper exchange notes.


    In addition to the pledge, there are pawn tickets.


    When it comes to the purpose and significance of the existence of the bank, Zhang Xiu also explained all the things clearly.


    Rao is so, Zhang Xiu is to delete change several times. After six revisions, he finally formed a plan to set up a bank.


    It was dark.


    Zhang Xiu stretched a waist, rubbed the sour face, read it carefully again, found that there was no problem, then began to eat. After dinner, Zhang Xiu didn''t stay up late, but went to rest early.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu got up early in the morning and finished her morning exercise. After breakfast, she came to her study early and gathered six ministers under her command, as well as civil servants such as Sima Yi and Zhang song.


    All the people in the civil service system are here.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and immediately took out two manuscripts written last night. He wrote two copies last night, specially for the people under his command to see.


    Zhang xiudao: "all take turns to see, after reading, come back to express their opinions."


    Jia Xu and Xu Shu were the first to see it.


    After watching it, they passed it on to the people below, but the expressions on their faces were full of shock and disbelief. They could not expect that Zhang Xiu would come up with such a way, which was beyond imagination.bank!


    There is such an organization!


    One by one after watching, are a pair of incredible look.


    After a full quarter of an hour, seeing that everyone had finished browsing, Zhang Xiu said, "my idea of setting up a bank has been clearly written in the booklet. Now, you''ve all looked at it and said what you think? "


    Xu Shu said: "Your Highness, is this useful?"


    Zhang xiudao: "why is it useless?"


    Xu Shu said in a deep voice: "the money of his own family must be the most appropriate to stay at home, which is the most secure. Because most of the people can''t put their money in the bank. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "about this, I didn''t write it in intentionally. But people who deposit their money in the bank will have a certain interest. For example, after saving 1000 yuan, he assumes that according to the fixed interest rate, he can have 30 yuan interest in one year. Of course, this figure is Wang''s assumption. In short, when people save money and enter the bank, it means that money generates money. "


    Xu Shu continued: "the problem is that after countless people save money, so much money is put in the bank. We can''t count the interest we spend every month. "


    After a pause, Xu Shu said: "such a loss is not worth it. This is tantamount to hollowing out our own interests and then handing over our money to the people. No, that''s not right! "


    Tian Feng said, "Your Highness, I don''t think it''s right to be humble."


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, Tian Feng was in charge of the inspection court, which was also the most important part.


    In particular, he is responsible for the administration of local officials. The only drawback is that Tian Feng''s Inspectorate is not as fast developed as Wang Yue''s royal guards. It has always been a matter of no hurry to select officials and then arrange them to serve in various places.


    All officials of the Inspectorate are directly under the management of the Inspectorate and are not under the jurisdiction of local officials. After all, the officials of the Inspectorate are extremely important, so their development is slower.


    Rao is so, but the importance of the Inspectorate is becoming more and more important.


    Tian Feng continued: "as Xu Shangshu said, it is a good thing to let the people benefit, but in fact, it is not necessary to do so to the people. The most important thing is that after the establishment of the bank, the corresponding staff will be increased, which is tantamount to increasing a lot of expenses. Such a substantial increase in expenditure is obviously inappropriate. Therefore, humble positions are also against. "


    "Your Highness, I''m against your humble position!"


    Jia Xu has always been mature and prudent, but thinking of Zhang Xiu''s black sheep family, he said in a deep voice: "Your Highness is dedicated to serving the people. This is a good thing. However, the world is still uncertain. There are still many places where money is needed. "


    "Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and sun CE dominate each other. We need countless money to defeat them. Your highness, we are not rich yet. "


    "Even if there are coal stone, rice paper and other profiteering, in fact, our expenses are not small! Yesterday, Xu Shangshu said that his highness will pay double monthly salaries to all officials and soldiers at the end of the year. This is another expense. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Highness''s benevolence is certainly a good thing. It also needs to be thrifty."


    He is an inculcating figure, worried that Zhang Xiu''s extravagance will destroy the current good situation.

 Chapter 863

    The rest of the people, you say a word, I say a word, keep talking.


    There was worry on everyone''s faces.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people''s words, and there was no tension and anxiety on her face. Because these problems were in his expectation. The emergence of a novel is bound to be questioned and questioned.


    Seeing that Liu Ba had never spoken from beginning to end, Zhang Xiu asked with a smile, "Liu Ba, you are the Secretary of the Ministry of household affairs. You know the situation best. Can you tell me whether the formation of a bank is a good thing or a bad thing? "


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Liu ba. Even Xu Shu and others indicated to Liu BA with their eyes, hoping that Liu BA would stop Zhang Xiu from spending too much money.


    The money didn''t come from the wind.


    It''s not easy to make money.


    Liu Ba said with a smile, "in my opinion, this is actually a good thing."


    Jia Xu said: "Liu Shangshu, really?"


    There is doubt in his words.


    Liu Ba said with certainty: "in fact, I only see how much interest the bank will pay, but I forget the benefits of putting so much money in the bank."


    "With so much money, it''s enough to make money."


    "That''s the best thing."


    "You don''t know the use of money, but in fact, if you have so much money, you can continue to operate. For example, if a businessman needs money to flow, the bank can lend him money to help him get through the difficulties and charge him higher interest. "


    "Another example is the emergence of gold mines in Yizhou. It is not easy to develop gold mines. The government does not have enough financial resources. Then, banks can invest. "


    "The bank pays for a certain profit."


    "It''s also an opportunity to make money. Because of this money, money makes money. Loans, investments, etc. can make money. In particular, banks have the background of the government. How can they be in deficit? "


    Liu Ba said: "as long as the operation is proper and there are channels and information from the central government of the state of Qin, it will be profitable."


    Jia Xu said: "as Liu Shangshu said, if you have a large amount of money, you can make money. But in fact, what if someone borrows money and doesn''t want to pay it back? "


    Liu Ba shrugged his shoulders and said, "it''s natural to pay off debts. In particular, the money owed to the bank is equal to the money owed to the government. If there is no money to return, you will be prosecuted. "


    After a pause, Liu Ba continued: "in fact, not everyone can borrow money, and it''s not easy to borrow money with one mouth open. If you want to borrow money, you must have a pledge, or a land lease, or a land lease, or a treasure. "


    "Only under such a premise can we borrow."


    "Only in this way can we ensure the stability of the bank''s money," Liu said. In fact, the specific operating procedures will certainly be more complicated, and it is impossible to release money directly. After all, no one''s money comes from the wind. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Liu BA''s analysis is good, and he is almost clear about the bank''s affairs.


    On the faces of all the people, there was a look of thinking.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu took the words and continued: "in fact, the use of banks is far more than that."


    "I''d like to hear more about it!"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and answered.


    The rest of the people, with a solemn look on their faces, all stare at Zhang Xiu and see how she explains.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "after the establishment of the bank, the main form is to cash or pawn the bill to exchange money. For the time being, it''s like this, but in the end, it''s going to replace the five baht money with paper money. "


    At present, Zhang Xiu talked about the situation of paper money.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although the current situation is not up to the point of using paper money for the time being, even if it is used to cash and pawn bills, after they became popular in the territory of Qin Dynasty, gradually, banks can be established in Cao Wei and other places."


    "Just imagine, once all over the world, there are places where our banks are. At that time, it will be easy to use the bank to influence the stability of Cao Wei, Yuan Shao and sun CE. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the bank is a double-edged sword. If we make good use of it, it will be of great benefit. But if you go to the extreme, it can also have a great impact. "


    When they heard this, their eyes brightened.


    This is not taken into account.


    No one thought that there was such an operation. Although they still didn''t understand the bank very well, Zhang Xiu said so. One by one, she also had some expectations.


    Li Ru didn''t speak all the time. He suddenly asked, "Your Highness, there''s a problem with your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Li Ru said in a deep voice: "among banks, cash and pawn bills are mainly used for circulation. When people come to save money, whether it''s five baht money or gold cakes, they will issue cash notes. If one day, Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, raise countless cash, to exchange money. Suddenly, we don''t have so much money in the bank. What should we do? At that time, it is easy to affect our own reputation. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what Wen you said is true, but it''s not really a problem."Li Ru said: "I''d like to hear about it in detail."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "first, we are constantly mining gold. In this bank, there are plenty of gold as the bottom. Even if there is a problem, there is a gold mine behind, which can ensure the adequacy of the bank''s money. "


    "Second, small amount of money can be cashed on the same day. But if you want to cash a large amount of money at one time, you must make an appointment, not the same day. "


    "Third, in fact, we will charge as much as we can for a bill. Once in and out, the bank does not lose money. Especially after the operation of the bank, as long as the operation is good, it is impossible for the bank to be unable to make both ends meet and exchange. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "no matter what, we don''t have to worry about it. Because we have the gold, we can open the mine at any time, and we can guarantee enough money. "


    "Wonderful


    Li Ru''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    It''s really good.


    Li Ru folded his hands, arched his hands and said: "Your Highness is wise, I admire you."


    Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I have a doubt about my humble position!"


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "all the discussions just now and all the considerations are actually based on the fact that banks can have business. But it''s a new thing that needs the support of the people. "


    "In particular, people should be willing to put money in."


    "I''m afraid it''s not easy."


    Tian Feng said: "many people are used to hiding their money at home and letting them store it in the bank. There must be a lot of people who are against it. Under such a premise, how can your highness break it? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s easier!"


    Tian Feng''s eyes are eager to see Zhang Xiu, but he still doesn''t understand.


    It''s new, after all.


    He''s a little confused.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in the past, Shang Yang moved to Mu Lixin in the state of Qin, so he had the trust of the people. Therefore, Shang Yang can carry out the Qin law and make the people believe it. "


    "At the end of the day, it''s a matter of trust."


    "First, the salaries of government officials, in addition to the direct provision of food, the rest of the money gradually went to the bank."


    "Second, for disaster relief and other matters, money should be drawn from the bank."


    "All kinds of money, try to go to the bank."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the most important point is to tell the people clearly that when we find gold, the imperial court wants to open up the mine, and at the same time give the people subsidies, which can make money. As long as the money is in the bank, you can earn money. "


    "It is not difficult for banks to develop with various supporting means."


    "What''s more, the bank itself has money."


    "It''s not difficult to have plenty of gold behind us."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "what''s more, even if everything is difficult at the beginning, since the bank is established, the officials in charge must find a way to make the bank thoroughly popular, go deep into thousands of households, and let thousands of households know. In this way, banks will become popular all over the world. "


    When they heard the words, they all nodded.


    Everyone agrees with Zhang Xiu that once the bank is well operated, this is an opportunity.


    At this time, Sima Yi said, "Your Highness, I still have a question about my humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said, "say it!"


    Sima Yi solemnly said: "the establishment of a bank, simple as it sounds, is relatively easy. Once we started a bank, we made profits through it. What if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao all followed suit? Under their rule, banks also appeared and began to follow our example. So how to deal with it? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first one to eat crabs is a Cowman. But the second and the third may not benefit. Just as Li Ru said just now, when we set up a bank, we are easy to be dealt with. Similarly, if Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others want to learn from us, then we can deal with them. We have all kinds of preventive measures, but they may not. This is also a pit for him. "


    At this moment, Sima Yi was convinced.


    The establishment of the bank is really a good move, one link after another, extremely powerful.

 Chapter 864

    People listen to Zhang Xiu''s words, clearly feel the benefits of the establishment of the bank, more aware that this is a product of a series of plans. Through the bank, even without a single soldier, we can deal with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes in the world.


    This is a sharp weapon.


    All the people stopped talking.


    They all agreed.


    Seeing the consensus, Zhang Xiu said, "the name of the bank is Daqin bank. His first president was Liu Ba, the Secretary of the Ministry of household affairs. When the follow-up is on the right track, the successor will be arranged. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "the gold mine has been discovered. We should make arrangements for the gold mine and the establishment of a bank as soon as possible. In a month, I hope the bank can be set up. After the establishment of Chang''an''s banks and the smooth operation of everything, they will be established one after another in each state, so that Daqin banks will spread throughout Daqin. "


    "Here it is


    All of them answered.


    After the matter is handled properly, Zhang Xiu waves her hand and dismisses everyone. However, Liu Ba did not leave, but stayed.


    Liu Ba is the Minister of the Ministry of household.


    He is very sensitive to money matters, and also proficient in money matters.


    But many things about the bank, although he has a general context, but there are still many details, need to discuss with Zhang Xiu again, to ensure a deeper understanding of the bank, have a more detailed understanding.


    So Liu Ba asked Zhang Xiu carefully.


    Zhang Xiu, with patience, solved Liu BA''s puzzles one by one. Two hours had passed. At the end of the day, Liu BA was still in the mood. He stood up and said, "Your Highness, there is no other problem with humble position. When you have a problem, ask your highness again. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    After Liu Ba left, Zhang Xiu rubbed her temple. It was really Liu BA''s inquiries, many of which bothered him a lot. He had to think carefully and explain things clearly.


    After he had dealt with the affairs presented, he went to the backyard.


    Today''s weather is getting colder.


    But Zhang Cheng, who is three or four years old, can''t stay in his room. Even though it''s snowing in Chang''an and it''s cold outside, he still runs everywhere.


    After the snow, he was even more happy.


    The heart of the family, are affected by this boy, all around him.


    Looking at his wife and children, Zhang Xiu is also a rare satisfaction.


    In this life, he not only wants the king to come to the world, but also wants his children and grandchildren to be full. Zhang Xiu stayed in the backyard for more than half a day. In the evening, the yard where he rested was in the yard where big and small Qiao lived.


    It''s better for the two sisters to sleep together at night.


    Zhang Xiu''s life is comfortable.


    Time flies by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it has been less than half a month.


    In the early morning of this day, Zhang Xiu got up early and came to her study after breakfast. Then she called to Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, what''s the arrangement of the salary for two months at the end of the year?"


    Wang Yue said: "I will report back to your highness. It has been arranged properly. According to the information sent back by the royal guards, all the notices have been arranged. In addition, they also informed the soldiers and assistant officials in various places that if their salaries were deducted, they could play up or report to the inspector''s court and the royal guards. I don''t think there will be any big trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    In this way, he was relieved.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now, there is one more thing to do for you."


    Wang Yue said, "Your Highness, please tell me!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately send orders to the royal guards of Wei and Jin to spread the news and spread the news about the king''s two-month salary to the civil servants and military generals in the state of Qin. I''d like to see how Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others respond. "


    Zhang Xiu had expectations in her eyes and said, "they may not be the financial surplus we have now. Even if they have a balance, it''s a great burden to reward everyone all of a sudden. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Wang Yue stepped down and immediately arranged the next thing.


    After December, the weather gets colder. Zhang Xiu''s commendation has spread all over the territory of Qin. In the Qin state, countless officials and soldiers were all jubilant.


    Although one month''s salary is not a lot of money, it reflects Zhang Xiu''s care for them. Even if it hasn''t been received yet, for the officials and soldiers everywhere, the royal guards have issued a notice. It must be true.


    This news also quickly spread to all parts of the world.


    Wei state, Xu Du.


    In the palace of King Wei.


    Cao Cao sat in his study, leaning against the fire, looking at Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun you and others, and said in a deep voice: "you all say that Zhang Xiu suddenly went crazy, and gave his civil servants and military generals, even the lowest soldiers, double monthly salaries. Is this news true or false


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and said: "it''s true. After all, the news is from the royal guards under Zhang Xiu''s command. Today, the royal guards of Zhang Xiu spread news in the territory of Wei. ""This move is clearly intended to force the king to do the same."


    "If the king doesn''t do that, what do his officers and men think? Some people will think that Zhang Xiu, such a courteous corporal, is kind to his subordinates. But the king is harsh and unwilling to give his subordinates any advantage. "


    "This man, I''m afraid he''s better than others."


    Guo Jia sighed and said, "once there is a contrast, it is easy to create a gap. What''s more, there are some officials in the central court who regard the king as a thorn in the flesh. "


    Cheng Yu said: "king, I''m against it!"


    Cao Cao said, "what does Zhong De Gong say?"


    Cheng Yu zhengse way: "today, Zhang Xiu gives him in the territory of Qin soldiers, civil servants two months salary, once the king echoed the response, also give our country under the jurisdiction of Wei officials, soldiers two months salary, so, in the future, Zhang Xiu give more?"


    "At that time, the king will fight or not."


    "Especially the king and Zhang Xiu are not the same."


    "The king still has to maintain the expenditure in the palace. It''s not a small expenditure."


    Cheng Yu said, "I firmly oppose it."


    Xun you sighed: "what Zhong De Gong said is really reasonable. But as fengxiao said, it is not without reason. This man is afraid of comparing people with goods. Those of us who belong to your highness know that your highness is modest and courteous. But the ordinary soldiers and officials below are different. There are too many people and too many words. Once they start to talk about it, it will have a great influence on his Highness''s reputation. "


    Guo Jia said: "Zhang Xiu is a very hateful and treacherous person. In this way, he clearly won''t let his highness have a good new year. "


    Cao Cao maintained the surface of calm, asked: "Wenruo, we are now in the Treasury, money can still be surplus?"


    Xun Yu replied, "please tell me, there are some balances in the Treasury. But if your highness really wants to pay double salaries, it will cost a lot of money. This month''s expenses are not small. With such a sum of money, we can fight a small war. "


    "Grant it!"


    Cao Cao sighed and gave the order.


    "Here it is


    Xun Yu responded directly.


    Seeing this, Cheng Yu opened her mouth, but when the words reached her mouth, she swallowed them again.


    There''s no way. We can''t let the people down here be divorced.


    It''s a matter of no choice.

 Chapter 865

    Jizhou, Yecheng.


    Today, Yuan Shao is not a general, but an emperor of Jin. He is the emperor of Jin. As an emperor, Yuan Shao was very happy.


    This is the wish of Yuan Shao and the wild hope of yuan family. When he thought that he was now the emperor of the state of Jin, and that his elder brother Yuan Shu, though he had been called emperor for a short time, had lost his soul and had been killed by Cao Cao, his heart was filled with contempt.


    He has always despised Yuan Shu.


    Look down on Yuan Shu.


    Jizhou, in particular, is rich in natural products. Therefore, Yuan Shao''s Jizhou is rich and powerful. Even if Yuan Shao was crushed in Zhang Xiu''s hands three or five times, even if Yuan Shao suffered countless losses, Yuan Shao was still extremely confident.


    The only regret for Yuan Shao is that Feng Ji fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands, and bu Dugen also died in Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    This is a pity for Yuan Shao.


    If Liangzhou is completely in chaos, and even budugen occupies Liangzhou, Yuan Shao will be able to survive even if he is defeated in Hanoi county. But both battlefields were defeated.


    The Imperial City, in the side hall.


    Yuan Shao, dressed in a crown suit, is reviewing government affairs.


    In most cases, the emperor will not wear the crown clothes or the twelve Diao crown. Because this suit is very heavy and uncomfortable.


    But Yuan Shao didn''t.


    Yuan Shao likes this feeling.


    When he was reviewing government affairs, he was also wearing a crown suit and a crown to the sky. He didn''t feel tired at all.


    On the contrary, he is more energetic.


    Now Yuan Shao is the emperor of Jin, and he has appointed yuan Shang as the crown prince. According to the rule of establishing a legitimate elder, although Yuan Tan died, in fact, Yuan Shao had his second son, Yuan Xi, who was yuan Shang''s elder brother.


    But Yuan Shao liked his youngest son, Yuan Shang, and he still tried to make Yuan Shao the crown prince. Today, however, Yuan Shao is quite happy to take in concubines.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    There was a rapid sound of footsteps, and a servant came in in a hurry. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I beg to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Yuan Shaofen told his whole life.


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    In a short time, Jushou entered in a hurry


    today''s Jushou is an important minister that Yuan Shao relies on. Because now under the command of Yuan Shao, Xu you has gone to Cao Cao. Feng Ji is captured by Zhang Xiu, and Tian Feng is subordinated to Zhang Xiu. The only counselors under Yuan Shao''s command were Ju Shi, Guo Tu, and Shen Pei.


    It was Yuan Shao''s side that had fewer counsellors. On the contrary, it was conducive to Yuan Shao''s decision, because there was no more controversy.


    Jushi said, "I''ll meet you, your majesty!"


    Yuan Shao asked, "why did juqing come here?"


    Jushi zhengse said: "in reply to your majesty, all of a sudden, there are countless people talking about that at the end of this year, Zhang Xiu will reward all the civil servants and military generals, even the local assistant officials and soldiers with two months'' salary. After the news came out, it spread all over the territory of Shanxi. "


    Yuan Shao said: "Zhang Xiu is Zhang Xiu''s, Ju Qing. What''s the relationship between this and my great Jin Dynasty?"


    Jushi sighed and said, "Your Majesty, I also got news from the state of Wei. There is also such news in the territory of Wei. Cao Cao, the king of Wei, has issued an imperial edict to reward all the civil servants and military generals, and his salary has doubled in January at the end of the year. "


    Yuan shaodeng frowned.


    Ju continued: "after thinking about it, I think that the reason why Cao Cao gave the order together was that he was worried that the civil servants and military generals under his command would talk about it one after another and make a comparison. That''s why he gave the salary for two months."


    "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu is very cunning."


    "First of all, if your majesty doesn''t follow, the officials below are likely to have a lot of discussions and be devious."


    "Second, if your majesty comes with you, it''s a copycat."


    "So in the current situation, it''s not easy to arrange such things," he said in a deep voice. If you do it, or if you don''t, there will always be a corresponding impact. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao slapped on the desk and said, "Zhang Xiu is really hateful!"


    Ju said: "Zhang Xiu is really cunning!"


    Yuan shaoxun asked, "Ju Qing, what do you mean?"


    Jushi replied: "after I have thought about it, even Cao Cao has followed suit. I''m afraid we can only follow suit now. Otherwise, there will be unrest in the whole territory of Jin. "


    "Damn it


    Yuan Shao slapped on the table again.


    His own hands in the hands of Zhang Xiu repeatedly eat shriveled, his son died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Now, he even wants to imitate Zhang Xiu and do things according to Zhang Xiu''s rhythm. This is what Yuan Shao does not want from the bottom of his heart.


    He said solemnly, "Your Majesty, there is no way. In order to ensure the stability of Jin State, we must do so. Otherwise, the officials will depart from their hearts and morals, which will have a great impact on the state of Jin. "


    Yuan Shao said: "even if I give out more money, I can''t give out Bi monthly salary."After a pause, Yuan Shao said, "Ju Qing, you can arrange for the civil and military generals, soldiers and assistant officials at the bottom of the class. In the month of the end of the year, the salary will be paid for three months. If Zhang Xiu is issued for two months, we will issue for three months. "


    When she heard this, she raised her eyebrows and showed an unexpected look.


    It''s a hole!


    Three months!


    It''s not a small amount to suddenly spend three months'' salary.


    Yuan Shao brushed his sleeve and said, "Zhang Xiu wants to compare with me. I want to see what he compares with me. If he dares to pay four months'' salary, I will pay him five months'' salary. "


    He said, "Your Majesty, is this too much. After all, it''s not the officers and soldiers of one county, it''s the whole state of Jin. "


    Yuan Shao said, "is there no money in the Treasury?"


    "Yes!"


    He nodded in reply.


    Yuan Shao said: "since there is money in the Treasury, there is no need to say more. Send it. Send it to me. I, Yuan Shao, have nothing else but money. Zhang Xiu wants to attack us, but there is no way. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    He said with a sigh in his heart.


    He is a little tired at this time, because Yuan Shao is pretty good most of the time. As long as Yuan Shang and Zhang Xiu are not involved, Yuan Shao is normal and wise. But when it comes to these people, things get complicated.


    When Jushi turned around and stepped down to make arrangements, Yuan Shao suddenly said, "juqing, wait a minute!"


    He turned and said, "Your Majesty, what else can I do for you?"


    Yuan Shao said: "we arranged spies from Jin to spread news under the rule of Zhang Xiu. At the end of the new year, Yuan Shao gave all the civil and military officers three months'' salary. Give me the news. I''d like to see how Zhang Xiu deals with it. It''s humiliating for him to compare with me. "


    "Here it is


    He bowed himself to answer.


    But he shook his head in his heart. When it comes to Zhang Xiu, Yuan Shao''s mood will be excited, even impatient.


    There''s no way.

 Chapter 866

    It''s getting warmer in February.


    Under the rule of Zhang Xiu, all the orderly development of the jurisdiction, feedback from all over the information, are very good. Especially in the case that Zhang Xiu did not raise taxes, the collected taxes are steadily improving, which shows the local development.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see this.


    The stronger the foundation of his command, the easier it will be to clean up all parties.


    On this day, when Zhang Xiu was dealing with government affairs in the palace, Wang Yue came in in a hurry. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Your Highness, news has been sent back from Cao Cao and Yuan Shao."


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Wang yuechen reported: "at the end of last year, after the state of Qin gave all officials and soldiers two months'' salaries, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei did not follow in all the countries in the world. They are still the same."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "both of them are poor people. Youzhou is located in a bitter and cold place. Even if there are businessmen crossing Youzhou, in fact, they have limited financial resources. As for Liu Bei, he is now living in Yuzhou, and he is short of finance. They don''t follow, that''s normal. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    After a compliment, Wang Yue continued: "as for Cao Wei and Dongwu, they all followed his Highness''s steps and gave all civil servants and military generals two months'' salary, which was the same as we did."


    "But Yuan Shao is different."


    "Yuan Shao gave three months'' salary to the officials, soldiers and assistant officials of Jin State. Even Yuan Shao specially arranged spies to spread news in the territory of Qin state, saying that Yuan Shao gave three months'' salary."


    "I took this opportunity to catch more than 30 spies inserted by Yuan Shaoan."


    Wang Yue said: "I didn''t expect that such a small thing is to catch some of Yuan Shaoan''s spies in Chang''an and other places. It''s also a great joy."


    Zhang Xiu praised: "well done!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "this matter has come to an end for the time being. There is no need to pay attention to it any more."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue should go down.


    "Step on it! Step on


    A rush of footsteps came, and a servant rushed in, reporting: "Your Highness, Jia Shangshu asked to see you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    The waiter bowed and turned to inform.


    Wang Yue did not stay any longer. He turned around and stepped down. Not long after, Jia Xu entered, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "humble Jia Xu, meet your highness."


    Zhang Xiu said, "give me a seat!"


    At the moment, the attendant took the cushion and put it in place.


    After thanking him, Jia Xu sat down and said, "Your Highness, spring ploughing has just begun, although there are many soldiers in the army. But in fact, the army is still idle for the time being. His highness asked when he was going to attack or when he was going to attack. "


    "No hurry!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    For the issue of sending troops, Zhang Xiu has some consideration in her heart.


    In recent years, Zhang Xiu went to Liangzhou twice and Yizhou twice. Although these places are peaceful, in fact, the foundation is not stable.


    Zhang Xiu hopes to have a rest for the time being and consolidate her foundation thoroughly.


    In particular, the territory of the world has been roughly set. At this time, whether Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, or sun CE or Gong sun Zan, even if their strength could be enhanced, it would be limited and could not be increased too much. So what countries are competing for now is their own details.


    Whoever has a more solid foundation will stick to it until the end.


    This is the key.


    So Zhang Xiu''s plan, at least rest for a period of time, the development of production, enhance their own heritage and strength.


    Only in this way can we deal with the future situation.


    Jia Xu inquired: "it''s a good thing that your highness is not in a hurry to send troops. His humble position agrees with him. After many years of fighting, even if the soldiers in the army are good at fighting, they need to be cultivated. But when does your highness intend to send troops again? "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "at least one year later, we will send troops to rest for one year. The specific situation depends on the situation! "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Even if Zhang Xiu doesn''t explain, Jia Xu can understand that a year''s rest is enough to thoroughly consolidate Zhang Xiu''s foundation.


    Zhang xiudao said: "today''s Ministry of war mainly urges the training of soldiers. It can''t neglect the training of soldiers in the army just because there is no war. The combat effectiveness of the army always comes first. "


    "I understand


    Jia Xu nodded solemnly.


    He naturally knew this.


    Jia Xu said: "please don''t worry, your highness. I will arrange this matter well."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "with the arrangement, I can rest assured."


    After Jia Xu left, Liu Ba came again in a hurry. When he came into his study and saw Zhang Xiu, he said, "Your Highness, the humble position of Daqin bank has been properly arranged."


    "Since the end of last year, large-scale publicity has begun. Up to now, the gold mines of Shu state in Guanghan County of Yizhou continue to transport gold back to Chang''an. There is no need to worry about the money storage of Daqin bank. ""In particular, the publicity in recent months has been known by countless people and officials."


    "This incident has caused a lot of discussion in the streets. Tomorrow is a golden day, and Daqin bank in Chang''an is ready to officially open. I sincerely hope that your highness can come to the unveiling in person, so that the people can trust Daqin bank more. "


    Liu Ba said: "with your Highness''s guarantee, the opening of Daqin bank will be extremely smooth."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "no problem, I will go on time."


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Liu BA was very happy.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "has the appointment of officials within the bank been arranged?"


    "It''s arranged!"


    Liu Ba replied again.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "have you ever discussed with them about coal stone and Xuan paper?"


    "I''ve talked about it, but it''s not going well."


    Liu BA''s face showed a trace of helplessness. He solemnly said: "I''m humble to negotiate with coal and stone of Lushan County, and I''m also negotiating with Xuan paper. I hope they will store all the main gold in Daqin bank."


    "When they need to allocate a large amount of money, they can directly withdraw a large amount of money from the bank. However, they were all politely rejected, and they all said that it was a waste of time. "


    "After all, there is no jurisdiction over humble positions, so there is some helplessness."


    Liu Ba said: "but fortunately, there is no problem with the filling of gold ore in Yizhou."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not right to talk about these two aspects. Why didn''t you say it earlier?"


    Liu Ba said: "on the one hand, the other party is not subordinate to the Ministry of household affairs, so they can''t give orders. On the other hand, Daqin bank now has enough gold deposits at the bottom. Therefore, I have never reported my humble position to your highness. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but with them, they are different. Once these two sources of money are remitted to Daqin bank. Well, it''s more convincing. Don''t you understand that? "


    As soon as Liu Ba heard about it, he knew that it had not been done. He immediately said, "your humble duty is not well considered. Your highness, please surrender."


    "You don''t have to be guilty."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said, "as the Secretary of the Ministry of household, if you want to do this, you must be beautiful. It can''t be just barely OK, it can''t be just passable. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba replied again.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "this matter, I personally handle. You step down and prepare for the business of Daqin bank. Such a thing will never happen again. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    On Liu BA''s forehead, there were fine beads of sweat. It''s really Zhang Xiu''s sudden change of tone, which makes Liu BA''s pressure suddenly increase, which is not suitable.


    After Liu Ba retreated, Zhang Xiu immediately called Wang Yue.

 Chapter 867

    Wang Yue stood beside Zhang Xiu and reported, "what''s your Highness''s order?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "today''s Xuan paper, who is mainly responsible for?"


    In fact, Zhang Xiu didn''t care much about Xuan paper. Although he also holds shares in rice paper, and even the manufacturing technology of rice paper is given to Huang Chengyan by him, up to now, he no longer cares about specific matters.


    Pang''s and Huang''s family made arrangements.


    Wang Yue replied, "to your highness, now the person in charge of Xuan paper is Huang Zhang. This man is from Huang''s family. He is responsible for all the size of Xuan paper. "


    Zhang Xiu asked: "teacher and father-in-law, are they in the academy now?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    After listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, Wang Yue understood Zhang Xiu''s thoughts. Zhang embroidery accounts for a certain proportion of Xuan paper. In addition, Pang family and Huang family also have it. Although Kuai family and Cai family have a corresponding proportion, they are very few.


    It''s mainly the Pang family and the Huang family. Now Pang Degong, Huang Chengyan and Sima Hui are all teaching in the Academy, so you can find them directly. After all, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan were the heads of the two families.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go to the Academy."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue should take the lead.


    He immediately went to arrange, not long after, Zhang Xiu and his party had left the Qin palace and went straight to Chang''an Academy. Today''s Chang''an academy, lush, pavilions, rockery water, excellent scenery.


    Zhang Xiuxian went to see Yang Biao. Now Yang Biao is very strong and looks ruddy. He served in Chang''an Academy. Many scholars in the Academy became officials one after another. It seems that there is a trend that the world is full of peaches and plums.


    Although the Yang family has four generations and three princes, Yang Biao has seen too many in his life. He has not much attachment to power. Now it''s more meaningful to join the Academy.


    When Zhang Xiu met Yang Biao, Yang Biao first talked about the general situation of the Academy.


    The whole academy runs very well.


    All the scholars in the academy are prosperous and take the world as their duty.


    Zhang Xiu is very optimistic about the Academy. Today''s Academies include not only talents like Yang Biao and Sima Fang, but also great Confucians like Guan Ning, Bing yuan, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan. Even today''s academies are constantly recruiting talents.


    This is the charm of Chang''an Academy.


    When Yang Biao finished talking about the Academy, he suddenly said, "Your Highness, there is still a great joy in my academy."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Oh, what''s the matter?"


    Yang Biao said: "through our kind invitation, Kang Chenggong has been teaching in the Academy."


    Zhang Xiu is also quite happy, asked: "when is this thing?"


    Kang Chenggong is Zheng Xuan.


    Zheng Xuan, the character of Kangcheng.


    Yang Biao replied: "last year, when we arrived at the end of the new year, Kang Chenggong came. He has been in the Academy for more than a year. When he first came to the college, he was a bit out of shape. We have asked Dr. Hua and Dr. Zhang to treat Kang Chenggong. Now Kang Chenggong is quite strong. He gave lectures in the Academy, which added to the foundation of our Chang''an Academy. "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "let Yang Gong bother."


    Yang Biao said, "it''s our duty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go and have a look."


    "No problem!"


    Yang Biao immediately should go to Zheng Xuan''s office with Zhang Xiu. However, when they arrived, they learned that Zheng Xuan was lecturing, and they left Zheng Xuan''s office to go to the special classroom.


    Zheng Xuan''s teaching place is a special large classroom, which can accommodate more than 300 people. It is a ring. Therefore, around the whole classroom, there are scholars sitting.


    The more you sit around, the higher you get to the back, but also the farther you go.


    This is a public classroom!


    A place dedicated to lecturing.


    When Zhang Xiu and Yang Biao arrived, they were standing outside the classroom. Looking through the window, one by one scholars are listening attentively, while Zheng Xuan''s voice is rich and clear, reverberating in the classroom.


    Zheng Xuan taught the book of changes.


    What Zheng Xuan is good at is the study of Confucian classics. The study of Confucian classics he expounded is in simple terms and can be understood by listening to it.


    This is also the reason why countless scholars attended the class. After a class, nearly half an hour passed. During the whole process, Zheng Xuan didn''t take a break and taught standing all the way.


    When the bell rings in the Academy, scholars'' voices ring everywhere.


    In the classroom, Zheng Xuan also no longer taught, said the class was over. All the scholars got up and bowed to Zheng Xuan. Then they left in turn.


    Zhang Xiu looks at all these in the eye, pour is quite admire. The manners of these scholars were very good. Zhang Xiu didn''t spend much time in the Academy. Many scholars didn''t know Zhang Xiu. When they saw Yang Biao, many people saluted and left.


    When Zheng Xuan came out, he saw Yang Biao and said with a smile, "why is the Dean here today?"


    Yang Biao said: "someone wants to see you!"Zheng Xuan''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. His face, which was covered with frost and folds, suddenly showed a look of surprise. He folded his hands and said, "old man, I''ll see the king of Qin!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "Kang Chenggong doesn''t have to be polite!"


    After the meeting, Yang Biao led the two sides back to Zheng Xuan''s office. The guests and the host took their seats. Zhang Xiu said, "I think Kang Chenggong has a strong voice and strong body on the platform, which is very good. Kang Chenggong is also an old man. He is unforgiving these days. Even if he has a good body, he still has to take care of his body


    Zheng Xuan said: "the concern of the king of Qin, thank you very much. Please rest assured that the old man''s body and bones are not bad. From time to time, the great doctor Hua would come to the academy to treat the old man. Now, it''s pretty good. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face is also a smile.


    After the two sides had a simple family routine, Zhang Xiu did not stay much and left with Yang Biao.


    Yang Biao said: "Your Highness, during the period when dezu was the governor of Liangzhou, there was a mess in Liangzhou. In the eyes of Lao Jiu, he is still too young. His highness should let him go down to experience and let him serve as an assassin


    Yang Biao praised and gratified his son''s intelligence and achievements.


    It''s just that he''s worried about Yang Xiu.


    It''s not easy to do things well when you are young and in a high position.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Mr. Yang doesn''t have to worry. Dezu is in Liangzhou. He has done a good job. The reason for the turmoil in Liangzhou is that it happened suddenly. Moreover, both Gao Lan and pound are in trouble, let alone dezu? Without the army, dezu could not even pacify the rebellion. And even if dezu reported it, it didn''t lead to a major disaster. That''s good. "


    After hearing this, Yang Biao said nothing more.


    After Zhang Xiu and Yang Biao had a word, they asked Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan where they were. Then they said goodbye to Yang Biao and went straight to Pang Degong''s office.


    In the case of Xuan paper, we have to talk to Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan and let them take the lead.


    He didn''t want to make things stiff.

 Chapter 868

    When Zhang Xiu arrived, it happened that pound was there.


    When Pang Degong saw Zhang Xiu, he was quite surprised and said with a smile: "I said that if I heard the magpie crowing in the morning, there must be something happy. Unexpectedly, it was the king of Qin


    Zhang Xiu folded her hands, bowed 90 degrees and bowed to Mr. pound. She said, "the teacher can call me by my words. You can really kill me by calling me like that."


    When Pang Degong saw Zhang Xiu''s gesture, he laughed.


    Zhang Xiu is now different from the past, but Zhang Xiu is still Zhang Xiu.


    Nothing has changed.


    "What''s the matter with Jiang Ping coming to Chang''an academy?" asked pound


    Zhang xiudao said: "now there is one thing that needs to be discussed with the teacher and the father-in-law. I''ve arranged for someone to invite my father-in-law. I guess he will return soon. "


    Pound said: "what is it?"


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s something about rice paper, but it''s just a small matter, not complicated."


    Pound nodded and did not ask.


    Because the rice paper business is mainly dealt with by Huang Zhang of the Huang family, who is a child of the Huang family. Moreover, the profits of the Pang family are divided every year. They have not been cut down and are still rising every year.


    So pound didn''t ask carefully!


    Pang digged off the topic and said with a smile, "Jiang Ping, now Zhang Cheng is three or four years old. At this time, it''s almost time to start reading. Always stay in the harem, too heavy fat and powder. How do you think about it? "


    Zhang xiudao: "what advice does the teacher have?"


    Pound said: "I do have some immature suggestions on this matter. My plan is to let Zhang Cheng move to the academy and learn from Kang Cheng Gong. "


    "On the one hand, studying in the academy can be influenced by the atmosphere of reading in the Academy; on the other hand, the academy has people from all over the world who can increase their knowledge."


    "The most important thing is to keep him from being spoiled."


    Mr. pound said solemnly: "but this is my family''s opinion. It depends on you to decide what to do. After all, you have such a son, and he is the eldest son. He must be the successor of the state of Qin. The teacher of the emperor of Qin should be more careful. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the teacher is right. I''ve been busy fighting all these years, but I''ve neglected Zhang Cheng''s education. When I get back, I will start to arrange for Zhang Cheng to be a teacher. I agree to worship Kang Cheng Gong as a teacher, but it depends on his will. "


    "There''s something you don''t want."


    "Pound said with a smile:" this is his honor, but also his opportunity


    The two chatted, and soon Huang Chengyan entered.


    Huang Chengyan bows to Zhang Xiu and then sits down to take a sip of tea. He has just finished class, but he was blocked by students and asked by scholars before, so he didn''t return in time.


    Huang Chengyan took the initiative to say, "what''s the matter with the king of Qin coming here?"


    "It''s about Xuan paper," Zhang said


    Huang Chengyan said, "please tell the king of Qin in detail!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "I think my father-in-law and teacher must know about the preparation for the establishment of Daqin bank. The establishment of Daqin bank is of great strategic significance, which is beneficial to the people and stability of Daqin. "


    "At the same time, the early establishment of Daqin bank needs the support of all parties."


    "A few days ago, Liu Ba went to Huang Zhang and hoped that Huang Zhang would deposit all the fixed funds stored under rice paper in the Bank of Daqin and let it be kept by the Bank of Daqin."


    "I think it''s feasible," Zhang said


    "Huang Chengyan thought about it and promised directly," don''t worry, your highness. It''s about storing fixed gold in Daqin bank. I''ll find Huang Zhang to arrange it. "


    "Over the years, in addition to the monthly profits, Xuan paper has also prepared a considerable amount of gold and copper money to cope with possible accidents."


    "All this money has been shelved and used as the most important time to mobilize stability. I told Huang Zhang to get in touch with Liu Ba and transfer all the gold and copper money to Daqin bank. "


    "It''s not difficult," Huang said


    Pound said with a smile, "I agree with you, but I don''t have any objection."


    After a pause, pound said fairly: "Jiang Ping, I have also considered the Bank of Daqin. After the people save money, they can get interest. At the same time, Daqin bank is willing to lend to other businessmen to help them tide over the difficulties. But the question is, how can Daqin bank make profits by consuming countless money every day? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "just now the teacher said that Daqin bank can borrow money. This loan, of course, requires interest. The interest recovered is higher than the interest stored. "


    "Similarly, Daqin bank will make money through investment."


    "After all, behind Daqin bank, there are enough gold mines to support its investment in Daqin bank and ensure its stable profitability."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the most important thing is that in addition to this, Daqin bank should make use of the gathered funds to do more things that are beneficial to the national economy and people''s livelihood and the people."Mr. pound nodded: "I agree!"


    Huang Chengyan said, "don''t worry, your highness. I will arrange it immediately."


    "With the support of my teacher and father-in-law, I can rest assured," Zhang said The reason why he communicated with Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong was that he wanted them to deal with it. Once he made a move, it would easily lead to misunderstanding between the pangs and Huang families.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want.


    Zhang Xiu and two people said a word, then straight away.


    Zhang Xiu, who left the Academy, looked at Wang Yue and asked, "Wang Yue, who is in charge of coal and stone in Lushan now?"


    Wang Yue replied: "Your Highness, the person in charge of coal and stone in Lushan is Hu Yang. Since Pang Shangshu left office, he has been in charge. Today, Hu Yang has been in Lushan. "


    As soon as Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve, she ordered: "pass the order to Hu Yang, let him leave the daily turnover funds of coal and stone, the rest of the fixed money stored in Daqin bank."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Different from Xuan paper, Lushan coal stone is controlled by Zhang Xiu alone. What''s more, Zhang Xiu can''t give such important strategic materials to the rest of the people, so he can directly give orders.


    Zhang Xiu returns with Wang Yue and is at leisure.


    After solving the problem of coal stone and Xuan paper, it means that Daqin bank has two more huge cash flows, which can ensure more continuous capital inflow of Daqin bank. At the same time, it can also firmly control coal stone and Xuan paper.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    On the other hand, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan left the Academy early at the end of their one-day teaching and came to Huang''s home together. Huang Chengyan directly arranged for people to invite Huang Zhang.


    Today''s Huang Zhang is almost all in Chang''an. Because the paper headquarters of Xuan paper has moved from Xiangyang to Chang''an.


    Huang Zhang is in his thirties, nearly forty years old, slightly obese and of medium build.


    When he saw Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong, he bowed to them and said, "I don''t know what''s the matte

 Chapter 869

    Huang Chengyan''s face was solemn, and he asked in a deep voice, "Huang Zhang, how long have you been in charge of Xuan paper?"


    After hearing this, Huang Zhang felt a sudden change in his heart.


    What''s going on here?


    Could it be that Huang Zhang wanted to get rid of the fact that he was in charge of Xuan paper? For a moment, Huang Zhang became nervous and said, "I have been in charge of Xuan paper for two and a half years now


    Huang Chengyan said: "in two and a half years, have you forgotten who first proposed the technological process of rice paper. What''s more, he forgot that his Highness''s share in rice paper. Now Liu Shangshu from the Ministry of accounts is looking for you to cooperate and deposit the unused fixed money in Daqin bank. Why refuse? "


    Huang Zhang''s face was very nervous.


    It''s not good.


    Huang Zhang quickly explained: "the owner of Daqin bank publicized that he could get interest after depositing his money. But actually, who knows? "


    "After all, this is king Qin''s Bank."


    "If the money is deposited, the king of Qin says it''s gone, then our money will be gone. If all the gold remains in the rice paper, even if it is earth shaking, there will be no problem. "


    "What''s more, Xuan paper does not belong to the king of Qin alone. It belongs to all major families."


    "From the beginning to the end, the king of Qin did not manage Xuan paper. Every year our Jingzhou families give him the most profits. But now, he asked Liu Ba to empty all the money we have accumulated in a word. How can he do that? "


    "So Liu Shangshu came to me and I found a reason to shirk," Huang said


    Huang Chengyan''s expression, cold down. I didn''t expect that Huang Zhang was so considerate and stubborn.


    This is equal to cutting with Zhang Xiu.


    Mr. pound sat on one side and did not speak from beginning to end. Huang Zhang is a member of the Huang family. It is not convenient for him to interfere in management. This matter can be arranged by Huang Chengyan.


    Huang Chengyan brushed his sleeve and said, "I''m not here to discuss with you, but to order you to deposit all the fixed and immovable money in Daqin bank. Tomorrow is the opening time of Daqin bank, and you will go to join us in the morning. "


    Brush!


    Huang Zhang''s face changed slightly.


    He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "where does the owner put the family?"


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Huang Chengyan was furious.


    He did not expect that Huang Zhang would dare to question his decision. Such a thing is not encountered by Huang Chengyan. You know, he is the head of the Huang family, and Huang Zhang is just the person he arranged.


    In particular, rice paper is more than Huang''s.


    "Somebody


    Huang Chengyan orders.


    In a flash, an attendant entered the study. After the attendant stood still, Huang Chengyan said, "drag Huang Zhang down and kill him with sticks. I don''t need people who can''t see the situation clearly at any time. "


    As soon as the attendant heard this, he came forward to ask for help.


    As soon as Huang Zhang heard this, he said in a loud voice, "master, I have no credit and I have hard work. You kill me like this, which makes the family unconvinced. I don''t agree with Huang Zhang."


    Huang Chengyan said: "if I want to kill you, who dares to refuse? Huang family up and down, who is not convinced, directly expelled from the Huang family


    Over the years, the Huang family has made countless profits from rice paper and has made countless money.


    Huang Chengyan himself does not attach much importance to money. Huang Zhang, however, intends to disobey Zhang Xiu''s orders, and even refuses to listen to his orders.


    It''s openly right.


    In particular, on the one hand, it will weaken the influence of the Huang family in front of Zhang Xiu; on the other hand, it will add obstacles to Huang Yueying. It''s not polite to say that the Huang family doesn''t do anything. As long as Zhang Cheng grows up, with the Huang family''s relationship with Zhang Cheng and Huang Yueying, the Huang family will be prosperous and prosperous.


    But Huang Zhang wants to jump out and shout injustice, which makes Huang Chengyan angry. In particular, what Huang Chengyan is worried about is that Huang Zhang''s words represent certain signs. He is worried that this is the idea of some people in the Huang family.


    Therefore, Huang Chengyan wants to kill the chicken and frighten the monkey.


    Huang Chengyan didn''t show mercy. He waved his hand to let the attendant drag Huang Zhang out. At this time, Huang Zhang was completely flustered. He was very afraid and said in a loud voice, "master, I don''t want to. I can''t do it. I can''t do it!"


    Huang Chengyan said, "wait a minute!"


    At this time, the attendant stopped and did not drag people out.


    Huang Zhang rushed in and fell on his knees with a plop. His whole body of fat was shaking, kneeling on the ground and choking: "master, Xuan paper still keeps earning money and handing in profits every month. But in fact, the money that used to be saved and kept is gone. "


    Brush!


    Huang Chengyan''s face changed slightly.


    Pang Degong has always been a man of constant color, but when he heard Huang Zhang''s words, he was inevitably shocked. He leaned forward slightly, and his face showed an unexpected look.


    Generally speaking, apart from the profits handed in, a part of the funds for the operation and distribution of rice paper manufacturing and selling will be retained. In fact, this part of the funds for operation is extremely abundant and can not be used up.Accumulated over time, accumulated countless money.


    Zhang Xiu knows that.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t ask, which also made the top and bottom of rice paper quite gratified.


    According to Mr. Pound''s estimation, there are hundreds of Jin of gold, not to mention too much. This can no longer be measured by two measures, it must be measured by Jin.


    Unexpectedly, it''s gone.


    Pang Degong took a deep breath and turned to look at Huang Chengyan. After all, it''s a member of the Huang family. Even if it''s not proper, it''s up to Huang Chengyan to deal with it.


    Huang Chengyan said coldly, "what''s the matter?"


    Huang Zhang said with a sad face: "master, I lost. I gambled in casinos and lost all my money. It''s not that I don''t want to cooperate, it''s that I really have no money. Master, I''m wrong. I''m willing to be punished. Now there is really no money, please refuse the king of Qin. In a few months, if you save money again, you can fill this hole. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Huang Chengyan was furious when he heard that.


    He is not only angry at what Huang Zhang has done, but also angry that there will be such a big loophole.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Huang Chengyan breathes very quickly. In his eyes, he looks cold and fierce. The vast majority of Huang Chengyan, are gentle people, good temper.


    But now, it is hard for him to hide his anger.


    Seeing Huang Chengyan''s anger, Pang Degong even lost his reason and said, "come on


    After he gave the order, the former servant entered again. In Huang Chengyan''s house, pound also has the right to speak, because pound is Huang Chengyan''s good friend, especially Pound''s high prestige.


    The servants of the Huang family dare not disobey orders.


    Pang Degong pointed to Huang shengrou and dragged him down. I''ll watch it. If he runs away, you can''t keep your head. Your family will also be expelled from the Huang family. "


    "Yes


    When the attendant heard this, he became nervous.


    They all know the seriousness of the matter and must guard Huang Zhang carefully.


    Now, Huang Chengyan is a bit of a mess, more nervous, and even a bit of a mess. He looked at Mr. pound and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Pang, what do you say to do now that this has happened? Your Highness''s Daqin bank is extremely important. He came to us in person and said, "it happened in the end."


    Pound suddenly said, "brother, do you think there is a possibility. His Highness has learned about Huang Zhang''s affairs and has not dealt with it intentionally. Let''s deal with it. "


    Huang Chengyan after hearing in front of a bright, way: "possible!"


    Both guessed.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu did not get any news at all. The reason is very simple. From the beginning to the end, the monthly profit of Xuan paper has not been reduced. Even if it is occasionally reduced, it is also a very small quantity. Within a reasonable range, Zhang Xiu never doubted Xuan paper.


    Today, pound and Huang Chengyan have come to this conclusion.


    Today''s facts, can not help but two people do not doubt, after all, Huang Zhang had a problem in the first instance.


    Huang Chengyan thought about it and said, "what shall we do next? Your highness asked us to deal with it, obviously taking into account our Huang family and Pang family, giving our two families face and letting me deal with it in a low-key way. "


    "As for the money you owe, your highness may be planning to let the Huang family out."


    "Well, I have nothing to say about Huang Zhang. If it''s time to pay, please. But Huang Zhang, a fool, left a thorn in his Highness''s heart. It''s not easy to pull it out later. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "with Huang Zhang''s precedent, how can your highness trust us. Even if rice paper gives us money every month, it is still bad for us in today''s situation. "


    Pound stroked his beard under his jaw with a wise look, and his face was filled with awe.


    A moment later, pound said, "I have an idea. In fact, this idea has existed for a long time, but I have not mentioned it all the time. After all, it was not appropriate at that time. "


    "What do you think?" Huang said


    Pang Degong said in a deep voice: "my proposal is to hand over the shares of Xuan paper, which is no longer related to Xuan paper. We in the Huang and Pang families can still do things inside. After all, they can do things to support their families. "


    "Over the years, our families have made countless profits through rice paper. It can be said that they are very rich."


    "With his Highness''s strength growing stronger and occupying more and more territory, it can be predicted that Xuan paper will earn more money. But this is not a long-term result. "


    "I observe your highness and have the ambition of swallowing the world. For a monarch, a wealthy family, especially his relatives, is a factor of instability. "


    Pang said, "you have Yueying and Zhang Cheng in your Huang family, which is even more dangerous. Before that, I wanted to say that I would no longer hold shares, but after all, nothing happened. To put forward this matter well is to hit everyone in the face. ""No one is willing or willing to give up profits like this."


    "But now, with Huang Zhang''s case, the people of our big families are at fault. You and I can contribute to this and hand over their respective profits. It''s also an account of Huang Zhang''s mistakes. "


    "Huang Zhang, especially when it comes to things, must be executed," said pound. Then take it to the palace of King Qin, so that you can give an account to your highness. "


    Huang Chengyan suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Pang Gong, Huang Zhang made a mistake, but in the end, he asked you to follow me. How can this work? It''s no problem for the Huang family to hand over the shares. "


    He has no objection to the surrender of shares.


    Pound shook his head and said, "what''s wrong? The pangs have made enough money to eat for several lifetimes. What''s more, I don''t want to leave countless money to my descendants. I want them to be self reliant and stand out on their own


    Huang Chengyan said: "but this kind of thing also involves the Kuai family and the Cai family. They also hold shares."


    Pound said fairly: "even we are not prepared to take shares. Do they dare? You don''t have to worry. In particular, this matter must be dealt with as soon as possible without delay. "


    Huang Chengyan clenched his teeth and said, "in that case, I will do it according to Pang Gong''s idea. This is the situation, and there is no hesitation. Please contact the Cai family and the Kuai family to persuade them. "


    After a pause, Huang Chengyan said, "I''ll put Huang Zhang to death first, and then mobilize the family''s money and put it into the Bank of Xuan paper. No matter how much, it''s an attitude. Then, we will go together to see the king of Qin and explain the matter clearly. Now that it''s happened, face it calmly, and there''s nothing to be afraid of. "


    Pound is just: "I admire you for your determination."


    With a bitter smile, Huang Chengyan showed a helpless look on his face and said, "there''s no way to make a decision, but there''s no way. This time, Pang Gong. "


    "No hard work!"


    Pound shook his head and did not delay. He got up and went to deal with the matter.

 Chapter 870

    An hour and a half later, pound returned to Huang''s home. When he saw Huang Chengyan, he quickly said, "my brother, the people of the Kuai family and the Cai family have agreed."


    "The Kuai family is more talkative and agrees directly. On the contrary, the Cai family has lost its support over the years, especially Cai Mao''s current official career, which is not very prominent. "


    "So there was a little delay in the Cai family."


    "Today, Cai Mao is also confused and wants to hold the equity of Xuan paper. He didn''t want to think about it. How did he get the stock right at the beginning? After the old man had a drink of abuse, Cai Mao finally agreed. He didn''t dare to be stubborn again. "


    There is self-confidence in Pound''s words.


    He is not afraid of CAI Mao.


    In particular, he is also Zhang Xiu''s teacher. He is not polite to say that once Zhang Xiu becomes emperor in the future, he is the emperor''s teacher.


    Huang Chengyan said, "hard work, Pang Gong!"


    Pound Fair: "between you and me, say these do what, you now ready?"


    Huang Chengyan replied, "it''s ready, and Huang Zhang has been executed. In addition, our Huang family took out 200 Jin of gold and rushed it into the warehouse of Xuan paper to make up for Huang Zhang''s deficit. "


    When pound heard this, he was surprised and said, "if you take out 200 Jin of gold at one go, you''re moving most of your family. In recent years, although Xuan paper distributed countless profits to the Huang family, the king of Qin had spent money and food in the war. The Huang family gave great support and gave them a lot of money and food. Now that you are like this, it''s easy to cause unrest in the Huang family? "


    Huang Chengyan stroked his beard and said, "it doesn''t matter if people are still there. As Pang Gong said, as long as there are Yueying and Zhangcheng, the status of our Huang family will be honored and favored. "


    Pound Justice: "you can have this insight, is the best."


    "Let''s go!"


    Huang Chengyan stood up, went out of Huang''s house with Pang Degong, and took a carriage to the palace of King Qin.


    Their identities are different. One is Zhang Xiu''s father-in-law, and the other is Zhang Xiu''s teacher. When they visited Prince Qin''s residence, the porter did not dare to stop them. First, they were invited to the hall to wait, and then they went to report as soon as possible.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu came to the hall.


    Seeing Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan, Zhang Xiu asked with a smile, "what''s the matter with the teacher and his father-in-law?"


    Pang Degong motioned to Huang Chengyan for him to say.


    Huang Chengyan did not beat around the Bush and said directly, "it''s about Xuan paper."


    Zhang xiudao said: "could it be that the teacher and his father-in-law have dealt with it properly and are ready to arrange for Huang Zhang to participate in the establishment of Daqin bank. Why do you have to go in person for such a thing


    For this matter, Zhang Xiu does not think there will be any accident. After all, he also holds shares in rice paper and has the right to speak.


    Huang Chengyan looked solemn and said, "the people in charge of Xuan paper will take part in the establishment of Daqin bank. Now, however, there are three things to tell the king of Qin. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "it''s OK to say that, father-in-law!"


    Huang Chengyan said: "Zhang Xiu frowned.


    At this time, he suddenly brightened up. No wonder Liu Ba went to see Huang Zhang, but in the end, Huang Zhang politely refused.


    I didn''t expect that I was short of money.


    Zhang Xiu did not immediately state her position and asked lightly: "Zhang Xiu said:" Zhang Xiu thought in her heart. After a moment, she said: "father-in-law, you don''t have to be like this. Although Huang Zhang comes from the Huang family, he doesn''t represent the Huang family. I also know the character of my father-in-law. "


    "No, I have made up my mind."


    Huang Chengyan shook his head and solemnly said, "the Huang family is no longer involved in the profit distribution of Xuan paper."


    "You don''t have to refuse, your highness, about profit distribution," he said, smoothing his beard. On the one hand, our families have made a lot of money over the years, which is enough; on the other hand, the people of each family are still working in rice paper, and their salaries are also very high; finally, the money is hot, and you also need money turnover. "


    "So it''s up to us to make the decision now," he said. Not only for your highness, but also for ourselves. "


    Huang Chengyan said: "what Pang Gong said is true, your highness does not have to refuse."


    "All right!"


    Zhang Xiu no longer insists.


    Anyway, Huang Chengyan and Pang Degong said so, Zhang Xiu no longer said more. As soon as the words changed, Zhang Xiu asked, "teacher, father-in-law, what candidates do you recommend to take charge of Xuan paper?"


    "No!"


    Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan answered together.


    They just pushed out the issue of equity profit, so they will not be involved again.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu had a plan in her heart and said, "in that case, I will arrange the candidates for Xuan paper. But the father-in-law mentioned that the Huang family took out their money and rushed into the Xuan paper warehouse, so there was no need. I''ll arrange the rice paper business properly, so my father-in-law and teachers don''t have to worry about it. "


    "How can that be?"


    Huang Chengyan shook his head and said, "Huang Zhang lost so much money. It''s my Huang family''s fault."


    Zhang xiudao said, "my father-in-law doesn''t have to argue any more. This matter is settled like this."In fact, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan were no longer in charge of Xuan paper, which meant that all the profits of Xuan paper had to be handed over to the state treasury of Qin. Under this premise, Zhang Xiu has made a lot of money. He will not pursue Huang Zhang''s affairs any more, and it can be regarded as a reward.


    Huang Chengyan couldn''t argue and finally agreed.


    They didn''t stay long, so they left and went to see Zhang Cheng in the backyard of the palace. Zhang Cheng''s mouth is very sweet, which makes people like him very much, especially the tiger head and tiger brain.


    Zhang Xiu sits in the hall, hands on the desk, gently tapping, carefully thinking about the current Xuan paper. Xuan paper has been in operation for several years. Before that, it was under extensive management.


    After all, Zhang Xiu never took charge of it. She just let it go until she made a profit.


    Now, it has to be arranged properly.


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered, the door creaked and was pushed open. Wang Yue hurried in and bowed to Zhang Xiu. Then he stood at the bottom of the hall and said, "Your Highness!"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what are Pang Shanmin doing now?"

 Chapter 871

    Wang Yue replied, "is Pang Shanmin the son of Pang Gong?"


    There is only one son under the knee of pound.


    It''s Pang Shanmin.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "that''s him. I remember that Pang Shanmin was invited to be an official. It was only at that time that Pang Shanmin never became an official at the teacher''s knee. Now, what is he doing? But in Chang''an? "


    Wang Yue replied, "Your Highness, Pang Shanmin has become an official and serves as a magistrate in Chiyang county. After he passed the imperial examination, he was assigned to a local post, and did not rely on Pang Gong''s influence. "


    After a pause, Wang Yue said: "it''s reasonable to say that with Pang Gong''s influence, not to mention the magistrate of a county, even the prefect of a county, it''s not difficult. But he was willing to start with the magistrate of a county. And he''s in Chiyang county. He''s good at politics and people


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "this Pang Shanmin is a man with a heart."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately arrange the royal guards and inform Pang Shanmin to go back to Chang''an. I have something to look for him."


    Wang Yue said: "don''t be so troublesome."


    Zhang xiudao: "how?"


    Wang Yue replied: "today, the news presented by the royal guards gathered together and found Pang Shanmin in Chang''an. Your highness will be summoned, and your humble position will be arranged immediately. In a short time, he will come to the palace to meet his highness. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what did he do in Chang''an?"


    Wang Yue said: "run the relationship to raise money!"


    "This is the place for the people of Pang Yang County," he said. Although Pang Shan was born in the Pang family and a big family, she was willing to get along with the common people and was eager for the common people''s needs. "


    "In Chiyang County, there are many places where roads are blocked. In addition, there are many ditches that have not been dredged, and need to be reclaimed to increase the supply of land. So he came to Chang''an and hoped that the Ministry of household affairs would allocate funds to open ditches, repair canals, build bridges and pave roads in Chiyang County, so that the people could be more convenient. "


    "It''s about Pang Shanmin," Wang said


    "Not bad!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu also had a look of approval on her face.


    Wang Yue continued: "Pang Shanmin is really good. In terms of humble position, Pang Shanmin''s ability will soon lead to promotion. As a matter of fact, as far as I know, last year, the Ministry of officials promoted Pang Shanmin because of the outstanding achievements of Chiyang county. "


    "In the end, Pang Shanmin refused."


    "He said Chiyang county was not well built, so he stayed in Chiyang county."


    "This matter also caused some discussion in the Ministry of officials. Other people are afraid of being left behind in this promotion, but Pang Shanmin is not the same. He just disdains it and just wants to do things. "


    Wang Yue said: "this is a practical person, quite pure."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the style of the Pang family is really good. Pang Shanmin''s character is similar to that of his teacher. They don''t care about fame and wealth. They just want to do something. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "go to inform!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue turned back and immediately went to inform him.


    Zhang Xiu is still sitting in the study, because Pang Shanmin has not come yet, so he asked Wang Yue to transfer all the information of rice paper, and then check it one by one.


    Over the years, Zhang Xiu never paid attention to Xuan paper. I didn''t expect that because of the lack of attention, what happened to Huang Zhang was a bit disappointing.


    He was a little bit surprised and even more proud when he read all the things on rice paper.


    Today''s rice paper has a huge scale.


    Not only are there many workers making rice paper, but also many people developing rice paper. Up to now, a variety of papers have been developed. Different papers have different toughness, thickness, strength and the degree of ink infiltration.


    Zhang Xiu also praised such Xuan paper.


    In particular, Xuan paper has not only supplied raw materials in Yizhou, but also in Liangzhou, Jingzhou and other places. According to the information presented, Xuan paper has manufacturing bases in Jingzhou and Chang''an.


    As a matter of fact, Xuan paper has started to select bases again in Hanzhong and Chengdu, and set up locations for producing Xuan paper. Because the demand for rice paper is growing.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see this.


    After all, Xuan paper was not only supplied to the state of Qin, but also to the state of Wei, the state of Dongwu and the state of Jin.


    It wasn''t long. About two quarters of an hour later, Pang Shanmin came in a hurry. Pang Shanmin''s age is nearly 30, but today Pang Shanmin''s skin is a little bit dark. He is not a good satin, but an ordinary dress.


    But Pang Shanmin is very capable and shrewd.


    Zhang Xiu vaguely remembers meeting Pang Shanmin when he went to Xiangyang in the past. At that time, Pang Shanmin''s face was white and short bearded, just like a good young man, but now his skin is a little dark, and his eyes have bags under their eyes. It can be seen that it is not easy for Pang Shanmin to act as magistrate in Chiyang County, but Pang Shanmin is happy in it.Pang Shanmin arched his hand and said, "my next officer, Pang Shanmin, meet the king of Qin."


    "Give me a seat!"


    Zhang Xiu gave orders all her life.


    Immediately a servant came forward and set up a cushion for Pang Shanmin. After Pang Shanmin sat down, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it seems that Shanmin worked very hard as magistrate in Chiyang county."


    Pang Shanmin chuckled and said, "although it''s hard to be here, in fact, it''s very successful. Especially the simple people, they will read your good. Moreover, it is not easy to know the common people''s needs only after they arrive at the local place. Of course, it''s not hard. As the magistrate of Chiyang County, I don''t worry about food and clothing. I don''t worry about anything. It''s quite good. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I have heard that the Ministry of officials will transfer you to leave Chiyang county and entrust you with an important task. Why do you want to stay in Chiyang county? "


    Pang Shanmin said: "because Chiyang county has not been well built. Every official wants to do something, but there must be someone willing to do it. I''m still young. I''m not in the way. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, for Pang Shanmin''s temperament, he is highly appreciated.


    An official must have such toughness.


    You have to have this persistence.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you have done well in Chiyang County, but now, I have an important thing here, which needs you to take the lead."


    Pang Shanmin said, "Your Highness, please make it clear!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I hope you will come out of Chiyang county and take charge of all the affairs of Xuan paper for me." "


    " ah


    Pang Shanmin was a little surprised.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu should put forward such a request, which really surprised him. Pang Shanmin thought about it and asked, "Your Highness, is this my father''s arrangement?"


    Zhang Xiu asked: "do you think the teacher is such a person?"


    "No!"


    Pang Shanmin shook his head and answered.


    He asked earlier, but only for a moment. Because Pang Shanmin knew his father, Pang Degong was a man indifferent to fame and wealth. It was impossible to ask Zhang Xiu for his future. What''s more, Pang Shanmin was supported by Pang Degong when he wanted to stay in Chiyang County, so Pang Shanmin answered Zhang Xiu''s question immediately.


    As soon as Pang Shanmin turned his eyes, he said, "is it possible that his highness asked me to take charge of Xuan paper because he also considered my father and entrusted me with an important task, hoping that I would come out from the place?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head again and answers.


    Pang Shanmin looked up at Zhang Xiu with an incomprehensible look.


    He did not understand why Zhang Xiu transferred him to take charge of Xuan paper. Because it''s really a fat job, even a good one. However, Pang Shanmin did not want to.


    Because it''s easy.


    Especially in Xuan paper, there are people from Pang family and Huang family. He has no space to display his talents and has no meaning in doing things.


    Pang Shanmin said: "Your Highness, I don''t want to leave Chiyang county. On the one hand, Xuan paper can work well without my intervention; on the other hand, I can''t leave Chiyang county. Now the people of Chiyang county can''t live without me. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "nothing is inseparable, Chiyang county without you, there will be another person to take office.". New officials will also be kind to the people and run for them. It''s not easy to let you take charge of Xuan paper. On the contrary, it''s to let you clean up the mess and reform Xuan paper. "


    When Pang Shanmin heard this, he began to guess in his heart that something must have happened to the Xuan paper. He asked: "dare to ask your highness, what''s wrong with the Xuan paper now?"

 Chapter 872

    Zhang Xiu does not hide, immediately said Huang Zhang, and Huang Chengyan executed Huang Zhang, Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan together to see, and give up all the equity.


    After Zhang Xiu said the general thing again, Zhang Xiu continued: "today''s Xuan paper is no longer a family style workshop, but an important commercial organization under the rule of the Qin Dynasty."


    "Today''s Xuan paper is no longer officially called Xuan paper, but renamed Daqin paper."


    "Under Daqin paper, there are Xuan paper, mulberry paper and other kinds of paper."


    "They should be classified."


    Zhang Xiu said: "when you are in charge of Daqin paper industry, whether you are the leader of Daqin paper industry or the person in charge of the following matters, you will also arrange the rank of officials one by one."


    "The most important point is that in Daqin paper industry, the main people are Pang family and Huang family. But the more we go on, the more we can''t only have Huang family and Pang family."


    "You can only appoint people on their merits, not on their own. That''s what you have to do. You may encounter conflicts and many problems when you carry out reform after you take office. "


    "It''s your job!"


    "Restructure Daqin paper."


    Zhang Xiu asked: "do you still think that this is something easy?"


    "It''s not easy!"


    Pang Shanmin shook his head and answered.


    At least he once took charge of a county and knew the position of Daqin paper industry. The governance of Daqin paper industry is different from that of a county. The focus of a county is that the people live a rich life and can not worry about food and clothing.


    But the primary task of Daqin paper industry is to make money. Only on the basis of making money can we carry out reform.


    It''s not easy.


    Of course, Daqin paper used to be a private workshop. Suddenly, it became an institution under the rule of Daqin. Many people would like to change from ordinary people to officials.


    But the problem is that there are pangs and Huangs, and even some of CAI and Kuai. If these people are all here, they will be involved in a struggle for interests, and it will be difficult to adjust.


    That''s the problem.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Pang Shanmin nodded after listening.


    He also knows something about Daqin bank. After all, it has been publicized in Daqin for a long time. Pang Shanmin did not care about how Daqin bank made profits. However, Pang Shanmin agreed that Daqin bank would benefit the people and help many businessmen to tide over the difficulties. This is an excellent thing.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Shanmin, would you like to be the leader of Daqin paper now?"


    "I will!"


    Pang Shanmin did not hesitate and answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words have already said this, he has nothing to refuse. What''s more, because he was born in the Pang family and was the son of Pang Degong, he was able to handle things easily, so Zhang Xiu gave him priority.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and be busy. If you don''t understand something, you can ask your teacher and father-in-law. The two of them should be able to give you some advice. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Shanmin nodded.


    However, Pang Shanmin did not leave for the time being and said, "Your Highness, what about Chiyang county?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "I will immediately arrange for Xu Shu to send officials to his post. In today''s Chiyang County, the government is in harmony with the people, and the people transferred in the past are not in a mess and will not have any problems. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Pang Shanmin stopped staying and turned to leave.


    Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and told him to inform Xu Shu to come. After Xu Shu entered, Zhang Xiu directly said that Pang Shanmin was transferred from Chiyang county and asked Xu Shu to rearrange the magistrate of Chiyang county.


    Xu Shu first responded and then said, "Your Highness has transferred pangshanmin from Chiyang county. Where will pangshanmin go next?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "he is in charge of Daqin paper industry!"


    At present, Zhang Xiu simply said that Xuan paper changed its name to Daqin paper, and that all the shares of Daqin paper were owned by the state of Qin, not by the major families.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu said: "today''s Daqin paper industry, as the official organization of the state of Qin, also set up rank, but its salary, according to the internal delimitation of Daqin paper industry."


    "For the setting of these ranks, next your household department will draw up a plan, then communicate with Pang Shanmin, and finally report to the king for my approval."


    Zhang Xiu said, "this matter should be arranged as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    In his heart, he finally took back all the rights of rice paper.


    In fact, Xu Shu knew the profit of Xuan paper. He thinks it is not appropriate to know that a cornucopia like rice paper has been carved up by various families.


    It''s best to take it all back.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although the coal and stone in Lushan of Nanyang County has been mined all these years, its storage capacity is huge. So this coal and stone, you also delimit reform, renamed Daqin coal. All the grades of Yiying are designated. ""Here it is


    Xu Shu responded again.


    For such an adjustment, Xu Shu is also happy to see its success.


    This is more standardized.


    And better adjustment.


    Xu Shu did not stay much and left to make arrangements.


    Zhang Xiu is also relieved that the paper and coal industries in Daqin have been changed one after another, and the whole industry will gradually be regularized. Although this is a state-owned enterprise, and even has a monopoly effect, Zhang Xiu just needs this kind of monopoly now, otherwise his finance is easy to go wrong.


    When Zhang Xiu was free, Pang Shanmin went straight back to his house. It happened that Pang Degong was at home today.


    When Pang Shanmin saw him, he bowed and said, "my son has seen my father!"


    Mr. pound was puzzled and asked, "how can you come back when you are busy running in Chiyang county?"


    Pang Shanmin said: "father, my son is no longer the magistrate of Chiyang county."


    Pound said: "what''s the matter?"


    Pang Shanmin explained: "Your Highness has just established Daqin paper. He renamed the original Xuan paper as Daqin paper, and let me take charge of Daqin paper. Today''s Daqin paper industry is the official structure of the Qin state, which will set up the rank. Not only that, the whole Daqin paper industry will be adjusted. So your highness transferred me back from Chiyang county. "


    After hearing this, pound stroked his beard and thought about it carefully. He said with emotion, "Your Highness''s means are still so brilliant. This move can be described as three carvings with one arrow! "


    Pang Shanmin said, "father, please make it clear!"


    Pound just color way: "once the news comes out, it is bound to lead to unrest."


    "But now the people of Huang family are killed, and the people of Pang family are in Daqin paper. In this way, Pang and Huang in Daqin paper industry, and even the rest of the people, will not be in chaos, which can stabilize people''s minds. "


    Pound just color way: "Your Highness''s means, still brilliant incomparable."


    Pang Shanmin said: "the father has said so much. In fact, for the son, the son only cares about one thing, that is, the son can do his best in Daqin paper industry, rather than doing nothing."


    "It''s never easy to carry out reform. Take your time," said pound


    "Son, I understand!"


    Pang Shanmin nodded.


    Pang Degong also analyzed the Yiying situation in Daqin paper industry, and Pang Shanmin benefited a lot from it.

 Chapter 873

    Xu Shu, as one of the six official books, can be called the first of all. He is very busy all day. After all, there are too many things to present to him so that he can know.


    In most cases, Xu Shu came first in the morning and left last in the evening.


    When he was working in the government office in the palace, a servant came in and reported: "Xu Shangshu, there is a man from outside the palace. He claims to be your second eldest brother. He has something very important. I want to see you."


    Xu Shu frowned.


    Now Xu Shu''s mother has already moved to Chang''an. Xu Shu lost his father in his early years. His mother brought him up. Under such circumstances, Xu Shu didn''t have much impression on the people of the old Xu family, and he didn''t know anyone.


    However, after he became the Minister of the Ministry of officials, many people from the old Xu family came out. They all moved to Chang''an and asked Xu Shu to arrange things. They all wanted to get something for nothing.


    Xu Shu didn''t care about these people.


    As an official minister, he could not use his power for personal gain. Moreover, Xu Shu''s mother had already strictly ordered him not to open the back door or bend the law for personal gain.


    Therefore, Xu Shu was not close to his distant relatives. After all, Xu Shu has become a "white eyed wolf". When he gets promoted and becomes rich, he doesn''t care about the people of the Xu family.


    Xu Shu thought about it, but he did not refuse. He said, "please come in!"


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    Not long after, a gray haired man with a bent back, a smile on his face and a crutch entered. Behind him was a group of people, more than a dozen of them, all in their 40s and 50s.


    They are all distant relatives of Lao Xu''s family.


    When Xu Shu saw it, he frowned. There was only one person coming. Unexpectedly, a group of people came.


    He didn''t have to guess. He must have said that after the release, all the people said that they had a close relationship with him. Finally, all of them entered, and the attendants thought that they were all Xu Shu''s relatives, so they did not dare to stop them.


    Xu Shu waved his hand. After the servant stepped down, he looked at everyone and asked in a indifferent tone, "what''s the matter with you elders coming to me?"


    The second eldest brother, named Xu Cong, is a member of Xu Shu''s family.


    He is the most senior of all.


    Xu Cong felt good about himself and said, "Yuanzhi, you are the Minister of the state of Qin, but in the final analysis, you are also a member of the Xu family. See me, don''t you even have a seat? "


    "No!"


    Xu Shu shook his head and said, "this is my office, not my home. If you visit at home, you will have a seat. But now there is no such thing. If Xu Gong has anything to do, he will say it directly. "


    Xu Cong''s face turned black.


    They dare not go to the Xu family because Xu Shu''s mother is always a strong man. In case of a fury, they can''t bear it one by one. They can only go to the government to find Xu Shu.


    Xu Cong took a deep breath. Regardless of Xu Shu''s rudeness, he said in a deep voice: "Yuanzhi, I don''t beat around the bush. We come here to ask you, what is Daqin bank? Good mouth, will not accept the money, do not admit it back. Although this is a good thing, we have no bottom. If you give me a definite word, can we put money in? "


    "Alas..."


    Xu Shu sighed in his heart.


    As soon as Xu Cong heard this, he became nervous and said, "Yuanzhi, is this really a pit?"


    "Of course not!"


    Xu Shu''s mind changed, and suddenly found that this group of troublemakers might be the best opportunity to publicize Daqin bank. Even some of his own distant relatives came to inquire. It is conceivable that the relatives of many officials in the imperial court would also inquire.


    There is no other but profit.


    Xu Shu soon had an idea and explained, "Your Highness has three reasons for setting up Daqin bank."


    "First, let the people benefit and make use of money to make money. The greater the strength of the Qin Dynasty, the more his majesty will benefit the people. In particular, his highness discovered new gold deposits in Yizhou, and a steady stream of gold was transported to Chang''an and remitted to the Daqin Bank of Chang''an. "


    "Second, your highness should help the businessmen who are in trouble in the world. Anyone with considerable qualifications can borrow money from the bank by virtue of their qualifications and collateral to solve their urgent needs."


    "Third, in order to facilitate the transaction, as long as the money is stored in Daqin bank. For large transactions, you don''t need to carry a lot of money. You just need to go to the Bank of Daqin. "


    Xu Shu said: "of course, there are other reasons that you can''t know. What I can say is that the establishment of Daqin bank is good for the country and the people. "


    Xu Cong said: "Yuanzhi, we have another idea. You are the Minister of the Ministry of officials of the state of Qin. You see, there are no other officials in the Xu family except you. "


    "It''s just that you can''t be an official in the court. After all, you say it''s difficult."


    "Now that you are the Minister of the Ministry of officials and the establishment of Daqin bank, you can arrange a person from Lao Xu''s family to work in Daqin bank. You don''t need to be the head of Daqin bank, you just need a relatively large official position.""In your capacity, it must be easier to arrange."


    Xu Cong thought about the Xu family and said, "especially, you are the most important right arm of the king of Qin. It''s easy to arrange a person."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Xu Shu heard this, he got angry and ordered, "come on!"


    With Xu Shu''s order, a servant came in and bowed himself.


    Xu Shu ordered: "throw these people out to our official. Who wants to throw them, who wants to threaten, take them down and throw them to the royal guards. Today''s royal guards are the best at arresting people for trial. Let them go to the royal guards and have a good time. "


    Brush!


    Xu Cong and others all changed their faces.


    "Go, go!"


    One by one, a swarm of people went out.


    they all know as like as two peas of Xu Shu''s nature, they turn their faces over their faces. One by one, they drank and scolded Xu Shu, and then left in a hurry.


    Xu Shu looked at the back of Xu Cong and others, but he had a detailed plan in his heart. He immediately arranged for people to inform the officials of each ministry. Whenever there is an inquiry about Daqin bank, the officials should encourage the inquirers to invest money to publicize the benefits of Daqin bank.


    In fact, not a few people visited.


    Countless people, as if smelling a bloody shark, were all excited and constantly mobilized their own contacts to inquire about the news of Daqin bank.


    The whole city of Chang''an is in full swing.


    News is coming one after another.


    Countless people are talking about the business of Daqin bank and the foundation of Daqin bank. In particular, the news that Zhang Xiu discovered a new gold mine and began to exploit it spread, and the people were even more excited. Many people had already believed in Daqin bank.


    Everyone is looking forward to the opening of Daqin bank.


    The emergence of Daqin bank has become the capital of Chang''an people''s chatting after dinner. Everyone has seven big aunts and eight big aunts. Then they talk about their own channel news and their own views on Daqin bank.


    Without exception, people believe in Zhang Xiu.


    The reason is very simple, so many years, Zhang Xiu has been to benefit the people, let the people more and more live a good life. So when Zhang Xiu launched Daqin bank, the people didn''t question it. They just considered whether it could really make money.

 Chapter 874

    The next day, early in the morning.


    At the location of Daqin bank, the surrounding area is already overcrowded, with countless people gathering. The construction and site selection of Daqin bank is no secret, and people all know it, so they came to the bank early to wait.


    In the heart of many people, although they are greedy for the interest, they are also worried. Even if their seven aunts and eight aunts have news that their official relatives think it is reliable and that they can save money.


    Rao is so, a heart is still uneasy, they come here, is still to wait and see.


    Time goes by little.


    The cool wind in early spring blows on the body, but with the sun rising in the middle of the day, the warm sun shines on the body, which is also very comfortable, making the body soft.


    As we approached, suddenly, some people cried out, "come, someone is coming."


    Voice spread out, a pair of eyes immediately looked past.


    Everyone''s eyes, look at the street ahead.


    The person in front is Wang can.


    Today''s Wang can, dressed in a white robe and wearing a long crown, is elegant and dignified. After Wang can, six ministers, Sima Yi, Zhang Song and others followed him.


    Everyone came to the opening of Daqin bank.


    When Zhang Xiu and his party came to the gate of Daqin bank, people nearby gave way one after another.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the people, looking at the look of expectation, with a smile in her mouth. He knew that the opening of Daqin bank today would be a great success. Because after fermentation, people all know that Daqin bank, there are always people who will try to invest money.


    In particular, the more you go to the back, the more you can attract people.


    Zhang xiuchao nodded to Liu ba.


    Today''s protagonist is Liu Ba!


    Liu BA was not only the Secretary of the Ministry of accounts, but also the first president of Daqin bank. Liu Ba, dressed in an official uniform and a Jinxian crown, stood up and said, "fellow villagers, I am Liu Ba, the Minister of the Ministry of the state of Qin. He is trusted by Wang Wang and concurrently serves as the president of Daqin bank. "


    "For the business of Daqin bank, people have been arranged to communicate with all parties before. I believe the villagers have already known about it, so I will not repeat it or waste time. "


    "When the villagers come here, they must have both expectations and worries."


    "Your worry is nothing more than that of Daqin bank. If one day it falls down, the money you put in will surely fail, so you are worried."


    "You don''t have to worry about that at all."


    Liu balang said: "first, the gold in the hands of the king is now continuously remitted to the warehouse of Daqin bank, making the warehouse of Daqin bank have enough money at the bottom."


    "Second, introduce two people to me."


    Liu pointed to Pang Shanmin and Hu Yang and said, "one is Pang Shanmin, the leader of Daqin paper industry, and the other is Hu Yang, the leader of Daqin coal industry."


    "You know Xuan paper and coal stone."


    "It''s a day for money."


    "After the opening of Daqin bank, the main money of Daqin paper and Daqin coal will be deposited in the bank and entrusted to the bank for safekeeping. Are you still worried about Daqin paper and Daqin coal? "


    Liu BA''s words were bewitching, and he said: "it''s not polite to say that as long as the state of Daqin is still there, there will be no problem with Daqin bank. I hope that Daqin bank will become more and more prosperous and not worse and worse. "


    Liu BA''s voice became louder and louder, and he continued: "after we deposit money in Daqin bank, those who deposit copper money have corresponding copper bills, those who deposit gold have corresponding gold bills, and those who deposit more or less have corresponding cash bills. Please believe that Daqin bank does not fall when the wind blows, but a towering tree that can stand up and not fall. "


    When the people heard this, they were all excited.


    Originally, there were some worries in the hearts of the people. After all, this is a new thing. All of a sudden, Liu Ba said that even Daqin coal industry and Daqin paper industry had to save money in it, so his heart was completely put down.


    Everyone knows that Xuan paper makes a lot of money, because there are countless people using Xuan paper in the world. Similarly, there are countless people using coal and stone in this world.


    For the common people, they are more simple, think that the sky falls down, there is a tall man on top.


    Daqin coal industry and Daqin paper industry are not afraid. What are they afraid of?


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene in her eyes, with a smile on her lips. Now, the opening of Daqin bank has completely consolidated the foundation and started with one shot.


    Through the operation of this matter, countless people completely believe in Daqin bank.


    There was a lot of talk all around.


    Countless people are jubilant.


    Liu Ba did not speak for the time being, he let the people continue to talk. After half a sound, Liu BaCai raised his hand and pressed down to signal the people to be quiet. With the silence of the people, the scene gradually quieted down.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Liu Ba again.


    There was silence around the bank.Liu Ba looked around and said in a loud voice: "the corresponding situation of Daqin bank has been explained clearly. Next, you can raise your hand to ask questions, and the person who answers the questions will be the king. Because the king''s words, is the real iron mouth straight off. I believe you are willing to hear the king answer your questions. "


    With that, Liu Ba moved two steps to the left, while Zhang Xiu strode out.


    At this time, all the people raised their hands and asked questions. Although Liu Ba had explained it before, in fact, for them, Zhang Xiu''s words were the real decision and could play a decisive role.


    Zhang Xiushen pointed to the front and said, "the third row of people in black robes, with a pair of long beards under their jaws, come on."


    Everyone around, shut up immediately.


    One by one, the people around them saw that Qi brush fell on the middle-aged man in the black robe. The man was staring at countless people around him with a nervous look on his face.


    The middle-aged man said, "king, my name is Guo Zheng. I want to ask where all the money deposited in Daqin bank is deposited? It''s here at the bank, or the rest of the way. "


    Zhang Xiu joked: "why, do you have an idea?"


    "No, no, no!"


    Guo Zheng shook his head and said: "what the grassroots care about is whether the money we deposited in Daqin bank is safe. If there is a theft, Daqin bank''s money is stolen and our money is gone, is Daqin bank responsible for compensation? "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu smiles.


    Guo Zheng''s question is very good.


    This is a very realistic problem, of course, in Zhang Xiu''s view, in fact, it is not a big problem. But for the people, this is the most concerned issue.


    One by one, people''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. They are looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s reply.


    Just imagine, if they deposit money in Daqin bank, if one day Daqin bank is stolen, or other unknown factors happen, all the money will disappear. Then the Bank of Daqin said that it had no money, and the money they had stored would be gone. No one would like to see that.


    Zhang xiulang said: "I believe that countless villagers are most concerned about Guo Zheng. On this issue, I will explain it in three aspects. "

 Chapter 875

    When the people heard this, they raised their ears in three aspects. All the faces looked serious, for fear that they might miss something crucial. It''s a matter of all wealth and money.


    Never be careless!


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, the site of Daqin Bank covers a large enough area. The whole area is nearly 1000 mu, which is occupied by Daqin bank. "


    "All the money of Daqin bank will be stored in the Treasury."


    "All the treasuries can''t be opened by one person at will."


    "Specifically, there are corresponding management measures."


    "In addition, there are not only royal guards but also troops stationed in Daqin bank. It''s not polite to say that even a fly can''t fly into the most severe place. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "so whether it''s inside or outside the Bank of Daqin. It is absolutely safe to move the money of Daqin bank at will. "


    "Or the other factors involved in the earthquake, such as force majeure. Even so, Daqin bank has corresponding preventive measures. "


    "If there is a problem, we will not shirk the responsibility of Daqin bank. As long as your money is deposited in Daqin bank, if anything goes wrong or goes wrong, it''s our Daqin bank''s problem, not your problem. "


    "I''m in charge of Daqin bank."


    "If Daqin bank can''t be responsible, I''ll take charge of Zhang Xiu."


    Zhang Xiu is firm in her words and has a voice. In an instant, all the people cheered at his words. For these ordinary people, this is what they care about most.


    There must be protection!


    If there is no guarantee, everything will stop.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the excited people with a faint smile on her lips. Because in the current situation, even though she has won the support of the people, Zhang Xiu still has to ring the alarm.


    Daqin bank, no provocation!


    It is also inviolable.


    Zhang Xiu did not speak immediately, and let the people continue to talk. After a long time, all the people around were quiet, and Zhang Xiucai said, "third, anyone who dares to do something wrong to the Bank of Daqin, whether inside or outside the Bank of Daqin, intending to rob the Bank of Daqin''s money, will be killed without mercy, and will belong to three families."


    When the people around heard it, they cheered again.


    It should be.


    If there is no corresponding law support, it is extremely dangerous.


    Now that Zhang Xiu has said something, everything is settled.


    After explaining Guo Zheng''s question, Zhang Xiu said again, "now, who has any questions?"


    "I have a problem!"


    "King, I have a problem!"


    "I want to ask questions!"


    Five steps in front of Zhang Xiu, outside the wall of soldiers, people kept raising their hands and shouting, hoping that Zhang Xiu could choose them.


    Everyone wants to ask questions.


    It''s all about yourself.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the man in the middle of the front row, who was an old man in his early fifties. He looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "the oldest father-in-law in the middle of the first row, what''s your problem?"


    The old man was very excited.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, he hurriedly said: "tell the king of Qin, the little old man''s name is Yudian. What the little old man wants to ask is that we deposit our money in Daqin bank. Then, can I withdraw money at any time? "


    "Yes, that''s OK!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "as long as you are in Daqin bank''s working hours, you can take it out at any time. But different ways of storage, interest is not the same


    "This point, when you store it, you can ask the relevant business personnel."


    "What I can guarantee is that you will not be threatened or controlled by anyone. If you can''t get the money out, you can go to the king''s palace to beat the drum and complain about the injustice. The king himself presides over justice. "


    Zhang Xiu gave some suggestions.


    "Thank you, King Qin!"


    After hearing this, Yu Dian said nothing more.


    After Yu Dian''s words came down, immediately after that, a man with bare breast, ragged clothes and fluffy hair stretched out his hand and exclaimed, "Your Highness, the villain king has a question to ask."


    A pair of eyes, Qi Qi Qi falls on this person.


    Because this person''s dress, like a beggar, there is no difference.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your problem?"


    When Wang Fang heard this, he rubbed his hands and said, "I heard that Daqin bank can not only save money, but also lend money to anyone. The villain wants to ask, "how much can a person like me borrow?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "what kind of person are you?"


    Wang Fang said: "a villain is a beggar!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "although you are a beggar, I ask you, do you have any valuable heirloom?""No!"


    Wang Fang shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "do you have a stable source of income?"


    "No!"


    Wang Fang replied again.


    Zhang Xiu said, "can you pay off the debt?"


    "No!"


    Wang Fang''s definite answer.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "since you have no valuable heirloom, no stable source of income, and you can''t repay the debt, why does Daqin bank want to lend you money?"


    One by one, the common people looked at Wang Fang with disdain in their eyes and even rejection.


    They want to deposit their money in Daqin bank. They don''t want Daqin bank to take their money and spend it wantonly, and then lend it wantonly to these people.


    Wang Fang faced the eyes of the people around him, but he was thick skinned and didn''t care. He said with a smile: "King Qin, the news is that Daqin bank wants to help the poor and the people. Why can''t we get a loan? "


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "I want to benefit the people and help them. That''s for the hardworking people, not for the idle people who have nothing to do all day."


    "Up and down the state of Qin, countless projects are being built. Either to open up ditches or to open up mountains and forests is pushing forward, and it needs countless people to work. "


    "You''d rather go around begging for your own money. Why should the king help a man like you? "


    "The money of Daqin bank is not from strong wind."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what I appreciate is hard-working people, not lazy people like you. Don''t speak any more. If you speak any more, I''m afraid I can''t help killing you. "


    "You look like you are in your early 30s. You are old and young. I don''t know if there is an old mother in your family. I don''t know if I can have children. "


    "A man like you, as a son, has no responsibility to support his parents; as a father, he has no responsibility to earn money to support his family; as a husband, he has no responsibility to be a man."


    "As the people of the state of Qin, they lack the tenacity of hard work of the state of Qin. You are a disgrace to the state of Qin. "


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, scold a way: "back down, don''t in this king''s line of sight in the eye."


    Brush!


    Wang Fang''s face changed again and again.


    He was originally a rogue. He used to roam the countryside and eat overlord food everywhere. But now meet Zhang Xiu, but arrogant not up, more dare not refute.


    He was flushed by Zhang Xiu.


    His eyes were very angry.


    But he did not dare to attack, especially to see the scorn around the eyes, his heart more helpless. Wang Fang was scolded by Zhang Xiu and turned back.


    The people around were full of cheers.


    One by one, the common people gave a thumbs up and praised Zhang Xiu.


    For the common people, their money is saved bit by bit, which is not easy hard money. Now Zhang Xiu''s words make all the people very happy.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down. When all the people were quiet, Zhang Xiucai said, "as for the question Wang Fang mentioned just now, although this is a shrewd person, in fact, he said a very important thing."


    "That''s the loan thing."


    "After the establishment of Daqin bank, it will lend money to people who can''t turn over their capital."


    "But there are conditions."


    "First, by virtue of valuable antiques, jades and other treasures, we can pledge them to the bank and exchange them for corresponding money to tide over the difficulties. Second, by virtue of the deed of origin, you can also pledge to exchange money. "


    "All of them have to be evaluated by the bank."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in a word, there can be no empty handed white wolf. We will evaluate the personal situation of every person who comes to make a loan, evaluate the corresponding pledge, and then give the loan. Although Daqin bank wants to help those who can''t make it, it will never be a big wrongdoer. "


    This remark was praised by countless people.


    The Daqin bank they want must be such a bank, otherwise it will be hard to convince people.

 Chapter 876

    Zhang Xiu next, and picked out a few people to ask, he is calmly answer one by one. During the whole process, he talked and laughed, and there were no problems. The idea of Daqin bank was originally put forward by Zhang Xiu. It can be said that Zhang Xiu is the most proficient in the banking system.


    After his explanation, the people have a deeper understanding of Daqin bank.


    For many businessmen, when they do business, they always have large transactions and carry a lot of money, which is very easy to cause problems. But if it''s just a cash order, you can go to Daqin bank to exchange money, and things will be easy to solve.


    After all the things were explained, Zhang Xiu no longer spoke much and retired behind the scenes.


    At this time, Liu Ba personally presided over the meeting.


    Cut the ribbon by Zhang Xiu and remove the four big characters on the plaque of Daqin bank.


    This was inscribed by Zhang Xiu himself.


    With the announcement of the opening of Daqin bank by Liuba, the whole bank officially opened. The big bank of Daqin covers a vast area and is very comfortable.


    In addition, already trained business personnel are ready at the counter.


    Everyone in position.


    Zhang Xiu, Liu Ba and the other six ministers have retired to the background. At this time, someone has started to save money, and then issued one by one.


    Daqin bank''s check is also the best paper in Daqin paper industry. It has flexibility, hardness, abrasion resistance, and is not easy to soak. The check made by Daqin bank is conducive to preservation.


    Not only that, there are many anti-counterfeiting marks on each check, and there should be official seals.


    Many anti-counterfeiting measures are well prepared.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the hot scene, with a smile on her face. She was also relieved in her heart. Since today, Daqin bank has been successfully opened. However, today''s Daqin bank does not have many functions of later banks.


    To be more exact, today''s Daqin bank is more like a large bank. But Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry. He believes that the bank will become more and more perfect step by step.


    Zhang Xiu and his party went straight back to the palace of King Qin.


    Moreover, there are also people in charge of Daqin bank, but Zhang Xiu is not worried.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Liu Ba took the initiative to say: "Your Highness, I am in charge of the Department of accounts, and Daqin bank is a very complicated matter. I''m afraid I have no skills in my humble position here. I think that after the bank is on the right track, we can start to select people to serve as the president of Daqin Bank alone, and then be subordinate to our department of accounts, so it will be much easier. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "no problem. You can arrange this. The premise is to be competent. Now that Daqin bank has just started, it can''t tolerate any mistakes. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba bowed to himself and said: "please rest assured, your highness, during this period of time, the humble Association will also serve as the president of Daqin bank, and will focus on the bank''s affairs. When everything is on the right track, it''s not too late to consider the successor. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Liu Ba is still at ease with his work.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said: "Your Highness, according to your humble position, I''m afraid that Cao Wei and Jin will not sit back and ignore the Bank of Qin. So I think they are very likely to take action against our bank. Once there is a mistake in the Bank of Daqin, it will not be good. "


    It''s a new thing that just appears. It''s easy to go wrong.


    Once something goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable.


    Zhang Xiu smile, not impatient way: "today''s Daqin bank, when it comes to security, there is no problem. Whether it is fire or water attack, it will not affect the internal structure of the bank. "


    "Because Daqin bank has made sufficient preparations in its treasury."


    "In particular, Hu Mo mobilized Mohist children to design special organs to prevent people from stealing. This treasury designed by Mohist school is not something that ordinary people can deal with. "


    "What''s more, there are soldiers on patrol and the royal guards stationed."


    "In Wang''s opinion, the danger of Daqin bank is not defense. The only possible problem is that some people spread rumors that Daqin bank has lost money."


    Zhang Xiu said: "once the news spreads, countless people who want to exchange money rush in, all of them want to exchange money, which is easy to cause chaos and turbulence."


    "After all, if people save money and want to exchange it overnight, then the pressure is great."


    "After all, the money in the bank is constantly lending."


    "This is a very likely problem."


    "Therefore, before the reputation of Daqin bank has been completely established and consolidated, we must ensure the amount of gold stored by Daqin bank and ensure that there will not be any problems."


    "In addition, the five baht money must be well prepared. Even I had a hunch that it would cause an incident. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao''s people may have relied on this incident. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "whether it''s money stored or troops stationed, it must be stable and can''t go wrong."When Jia Xu heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Your Highness is wise!"


    He agreed with Zhang Xiu''s analysis.


    In the current situation, this is the most possible.


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness, since this is the case, can we follow the trend and dig holes for Cao Wei and Yuan Shao? If they jump in, then we can take this opportunity to deal with them. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it depends on whether they are willing to jump into the pit."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said in a deep voice: "the royal guards under your command, closely monitor the actions of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. Last time, when we offered two months'' salary, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao took action. This time, they won''t sit back and ignore it. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed his hand to respond.


    Zhang Xiu said some things that banks need to pay attention to, so she waved her hand and asked everyone to step down to do their own business. Today''s Daqin bank is the top priority.


    All the focus is on the bank.


    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the hall, thinking about today''s bank affairs and resuming the offer.


    It''s his habit.


    See if there''s anything left out.


    And in the west of Chang''an, in a remote house.


    In the study, there is a middle-aged man with short stature and slightly obesity. His name is Cao Xu. He is a distant member of the Cao family. He is now Cao Wei''s intelligence director in Chang''an.


    At the moment, Cao Xu is reading the news of Daqin bank today. After checking all the news, Cao Xu thought about the business of Daqin bank and the possible loopholes.


    Cao Xu quickly wrote intelligence, and at the same time, wrote all his opinions into it. This piece of information is thousands of words long.


    After writing, Cao Xu arranged for people to send the news away immediately.


    And another place south of the city.


    In a rather luxurious house, there was a thin middle-aged man writing intelligence. His name is Gao Chen, who is the person in charge of Yuan Shao''s arrangement in Chang''an.


    He participated in the opening ceremony of Daqin bank in the whole process, and also had a close understanding of the operation of Daqin bank and witnessed the popularity of Daqin bank. Write down his understanding and the whole process.


    All finished, Gao Chen arranged for people to return to Yecheng as soon as possible.


    Today''s Chang''an is doomed to be restless, because the opening of Daqin bank has set off countless people''s hearts and waves.

 Chapter 877

    Wei state, Xu Du.


    Today''s Liu Xie, completely overhead, has become a puppet. Because now all the government affairs have not been presented to him, but directly approved by Cao Cao.


    When Cao Cao did not become king before, even if all the memorials went to Cao Cao''s Sikong mansion first, they were eventually sent to Liu Xie''s palace symbolically for Liu Xie to know.


    Now, after Cao Cao became the king of Wei, everything has changed, and Liu Xie has no chance to contact the memorial. Even at the court meeting, there was almost nothing wrong.


    In particular, after Cao Cao slaughtered several ministers in succession, everyone was afraid of Cao Cao. Today, even if there are people loyal to Liu Xie, their influence is almost nonexistent.


    This is Liu Xie''s helplessness.


    However, Liu Xie was helpless.


    Today, Liu Xie resents not only Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but also Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Xie believes that Zhang Xiu cheated him. Zhang Xiu won his imperial edict to fight against Cao Cao, but he repeatedly refused to fight against Cao Cao. In the end, Zhang Xiu directly revealed his imperial edict against Cao Cao, which made Liu Xie in trouble.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu was the first one to become king.


    This broke the practice of the great man.


    A series of things made Liu Xie angry at Zhang Xiu''s "betrayal.". But no matter how angry Liu Xie is, he is just a bird in a cage now, and he has no freedom at all.


    palace has Cao Cao''s eyeliner, and the palace guard is Cao Cao''s man. Cao Cao has the final say for


    .


    Compared with Liu Xie''s anger, Cao Cao''s recent life is still comfortable. After all, during this period of time, the whole system of Cao Wei was stable, and all parts of the country entered a relatively peaceful stage one after another.


    Prince Wei''s residence, in the study.


    After Cao Cao finished his administrative work, he sent someone to invite Guo Jia to the palace.


    After Guo Jia entered, he saluted and said, "king!"


    Cao Cao waved to Guo Jia to take his seat and said, "I''m thinking about a problem now. Today''s Zhang Xiu, a temporary truce, quickly accumulated strength. While Zhang Xiu didn''t send troops, should we send troops to attack Liu Bei and wipe out Liu Bei. Leaving Liu Bei in Yuzhou is always a threat. "


    "The king must not!"


    Guo Jia shook his head and denied the proposal.


    Cao Cao said, "why?"


    Guo Jia replied: "if the King attacks Liu Bei, can Zhang Xiu be a spectator? Now Liu Bei''s strength has stabilized, especially Liu Bei, who is used to buying people''s hearts. "


    "Under his rule, the people are subordinate. Without Zhang Xiu''s external threat, we could have wiped out Liu Bei. But in today''s situation, once we try our best to wipe out Liu Bei, we will certainly lose a lot. "


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu suddenly enters the state of Wei. What can the king resist?"


    "As a matter of fact, Liu Bei did not dare to attack the king''s area wantonly. Because Zhuge Liang is sure to know that at this time, he and the king will benefit each other if they cooperate, and if they fight, they will lose each other. He can only let Zhang Xiu take advantage. "


    Guo Jia said: "I dare to suggest that the king put out his mind to attack Liu Bei."


    "Alas..."


    Cao fengcao said, "you know that. But is it that Liu Bei has been allowed to become a state within the territory of Wei? "


    Guo Jia said: "there is no way to do this. As long as Zhang Xiu is in one day, or as long as Zhang Xiu''s strength is the strongest, Liu Bei has to exist. Only when Zhang Xiu''s strength is weakened and the Lord''s strength can crush Zhang Xiu, can he attack Liu Bei. Whether it''s the strength of the king or Liu Bei, it can''t compare with Zhang Xiu. There''s no way to do that. "


    Cao Cao sighed: "this situation is similar to the Warring States period. Today, the state of Qin in Zhang Xiu is the strongest country, and its military is powerful and irresistible. The strength of our countries is weaker than that of Zhang Xiu. Now this situation, if the two sides fight, is to take the road to death, can only be together against Zhang Xiu


    "So it is


    Guo Jia nodded his head. He believed that Cao Cao could have a wise judgment.


    "Your Highness, Mr. Cheng Yu, please see me!"


    Just at this time, the voice of the waiter sounded from outside the study.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao said, "please!"


    After an internal waiter, Cheng Yu quickly enters the study. Cheng Yu lifted up his robe and arched his hand to say, "I''ll see you, Cheng Yu."


    "Sit down!"


    Cao Cao waved his hand.


    After thanking him, Cheng Yu sat down and solemnly said, "king, I just received the latest news from Chang''an."


    Cao Cao leaned forward slightly and said, "what''s the news?"


    Cheng Yu said: "Zhang Xiu set up a Daqin bank in Chang''an, which is similar to a bank. Please read the details. "


    Immediately, Cheng Yu handed the letter.


    Cao Cao quickly read it after he received it. When he finished reading it, he looked surprised and said in a deep voice: "I didn''t expect that this piece of embroidery had nothing to do, and then a Daqin bank came out.""According to Cao Xu, Daqin bank is a special bank. Let the people save money to get interest, and then Daqin bank loans to earn interest. "


    "Cao Xu said in his letter that the bank seems to be stable and supported by Zhang Xiu''s gold mine. But in fact, the daily expenses of Daqin bank are countless. "


    "Once there is a large-scale cashing, it is very likely that it cannot be cashed."


    Cao Cao flashed a brilliant light in his eyes and said: "that is to say, once Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank is short of funds, it will lead to the paralysis of Daqin bank and big problems."


    "That''s what I mean!"


    Cheng Yu nodded, stroked his beard and said, "I''m also pondering over what Cao Xu has said along the way. To be careful, it can be operated


    Guo Jia had some doubts.


    He didn''t know much about Daqin bank.


    After Cao Cao handed the letter to Guo Jia, Guo Jia read it quickly, speculated in his heart, and solemnly said: "in case of insufficient cash, Zhang Xiu will make preparations to ensure that there will be no major problems. Whether we do it or not, Zhang Xiu is well prepared. "


    Cheng Yu said: "even if Zhang Xiu is prepared, it is impossible to have too much preparation. In my opinion, we can unite with Yuan Shao and let Yuan Shao and US plan for Daqin bank. "


    "If you don''t have a single soldier, but you can make use of money, you can make Zhang Xiu fall behind, and even lead to a big hole in Zhang Xiu''s finance. Then you have a chance to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    "In my opinion, Zhang Xiu''s establishment of Daqin bank is likely to require working capital and misappropriate the money of Daqin bank. Otherwise, he would not have made such a move. "


    Cheng Yu said: "because the operation of Daqin bank is obviously thankless."


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "what Mr. Zhong De said is true. How can we always guard against thieves for thousands of days. Let''s join hands with Yuan Shao to overturn the Bank of Daqin, so that Zhang Xiu''s reputation will be destroyed and Zhang Xiu''s finance will be in crisis. "


    After a pause, Cao Cao said: "as long as the Daqin bank is in chaos, we have a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. All along, Zhang Xiu''s Xuan paper, coal and stone have made countless profits, supporting her southern and Northern battles. If there is a crisis, Zhang Xiu''s family will collapse completely. "


    At this moment, Cao Cao is very excited.


    He thought the opportunity had come.


    Now there is no war and the deadlock has been maintained. Cao Cao has no way to take Zhang Xiu. But, Zhang Xiu this time out of the blind move, so Cao Cao''s heart, have to hand the idea.


    Cao Cao said, "what do you think of fengxiao? Now, whether we want to do it or not. "


    Guo Jia''s suggestion is extremely important.


    So Cao Cao asked.


    After careful consideration, Guo Jia said in a deep voice, "Your Highness agrees with Yuan Shao''s proposal. If it''s just us, it''s more difficult. If both sides can unite, that is the best result. "


    Cao Cao said: "it takes more time for both sides to unite. After all, it takes us a lot of time to arrange for people to go to Jizhou. In the end, we have to send orders to Cao Xu to connect with Yuan Shao''s people in Chang''an and make plans. It''s going to take months, but I think it''s worth it. "


    Guo Jia said: "since your Highness has made a decision, you can make a plan. In the current situation, there is no war. They are all recuperating and competing with Zhang Xiu in a war without gunpowder. "


    Cao Cao said, "if you know me, you should be filial."


    Cheng Yu said: "in that case, the old minister immediately arranged for people to go north to contact Yuan Shao."


    "Yes!"


    Cao Cao responded directly.


    After discussing the details, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu get up and leave. Cao Cao paced back and forth in his study, looking forward to it. Because the foundation of Zhang Xiu seems to be strong, but if the Bank of Daqin declines this time, Zhang Xiu will turn from prosperity to decline. This is his chance to defeat Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 878

    Chang''an, in the palace of King Qin.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have much to do now. Most of the time, she mainly accompanies Zhang Cheng and the women in her backyard. In order to pass the boring time, Zhang Xiu directly made mahjong.


    Today''s casinos have many forms of entertainment. But for most people, gambling is untouchable. Once you get into it, it''s a matter of ruin.


    But mahjong is suitable for young and old. It can pass the time. When the mahjong produced by Zhang Xiu appeared, it became popular in the palace of King Qin. Most of the time, when Zhang Xiu went to Huang Yueying''s backyard, it was the sound of mahjong.


    After all, Zhang Cheng was taken by someone, and now he has studied in the Academy under the guidance of Zheng Xuan.


    It''s even colder.


    Fortunately, with mahjong, women have entertainment activities. Especially with the participation of Huang Yueying''s daughters, this thing gradually spread, and soon became popular in the palace of King Qin.


    On this day, Cao Jie is also here.


    Most of the time, Cao Jie presided over things at home and in restaurants, and a few at home.


    She is also a mahjong player now.


    At the end of Cao Jie, while playing cards, she said: "Your Highness, mahjong is now popular in the palace of King Qin. I think it will be spread out soon. "


    "I''ve heard that sister Huang''s mother has learned."


    "So I''m sure more and more people will like it. If you look at the production of mahjong, it''s better to leave it to our sisters. We set up a shop to sell mahjong. "


    "I think the business should be good," Cao said


    Huang Yueying brightened her eyes and said, "yes, the mahjong we use today is made by me one by one. Well, we can make mahjong of different materials at different prices. Sister Cao''s suggestion is good, and we can make money again. "


    Cao Jie said, "my sister has a point!"


    Others, such as big Joe and small Joe, also looked forward to each other.


    They are in Lord Qin''s house and have nothing to do.


    Now it''s time to play, so I''m very excited.


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you want to play cards, you can. It''s OK to do business. However, there should be no violation of law and discipline. Otherwise it will reach my ears, and nothing will be done. "


    Cao Jie said with a smile: "don''t worry, your highness. You have been looking after the house and the restaurant for so many years, and there has never been any problem. In particular, today''s homes and restaurants have extended upward and downward, and there are more industries. "


    Zhang Xiu came interested and asked, "what industry is there?"


    While playing cards, Cao Jie said: "the first industry is the home and the restaurant itself. There are 15 branches around Chang''an city. Even the surrounding counties and counties, there are more branches, have been all over the counties and counties in Guanzhong


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, is very unexpected.


    He never paid attention to these things. He didn''t expect that Cao Jie and other women would make their homes and restaurants so big. However, such a thing is also a good thing.


    Cao Jie continued: "the second industry is pig industry."


    "Although every place has learned how to castrate piglets, the supply of pork is in short supply. So there is a special pig farm below, which we funded to build. "


    "The pig farm is located in the suburbs of Chang''an. It supplies not only Chang''an, but also Guanzhong. On the one hand, we earn money, on the other hand, countless people can do things, because they have to recruit people to work. "


    "The profit of this industry is no less than that of homes and restaurants. After all, there are a large number of them."


    Cao Jie had a proud look on his face.


    Although Huang Yueying, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Zhen MI and other women are also involved, the overall planning and arrangement are all arranged by Cao Jie, who is in charge of the overall situation.


    So, she was very proud.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "yes, yes. I''m curious. What other industries do you have?"


    Cao Jie added: "the third industry is the cultivation of vegetables."


    "In summer, because of the good weather, many fruits and vegetables can be supplied in large quantities. After all, there is plenty of rain and sunshine, but not in winter


    "Jiahe restaurant, as the highest and most high-end restaurant, not only uses pork and mutton to make delicious dishes, but also has fresh vegetables and fruits. Whether it''s hot summer or cold winter, there are fresh vegetables and fruits in my family and restaurants. "


    "It''s something ordinary people can''t eat."


    "Your Highness doesn''t spend much time at home all year round. I don''t know that the vegetables and fruits at home are supplied by our own people. They are absolutely fresh."


    Cao Jie said: "the cultivation of melons, fruits and vegetables requires countless farmers, and it also enables many people to have something to do, which is equivalent to solving the livelihood problems of many people."


    "The most important thing is to make money."


    "In summer, there is not much profit. After all, there are many vegetables and fruits. But in winter, it''s different. Even if they are rich, they may not be able to eat such fruits and vegetables. ""We can provide it."


    "This is the origin of the high price, even if there is a price but no market, and the supply exceeds the demand. Even if the price is expensive, there are countless people who want to buy food and earn countless money. "


    Cao Jie said: "Your Highness, it''s not polite to say that the money that our Lord Qin''s mansion earns today is not as good as coal stone, rice paper, etc., but in fact, it''s not as good as much. Because we are now involved in a lot of industries. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "fierce, fierce. I have heard that women can hold up half of the sky. You''re not bad. You''re women who can stand on their own. Women are not inferior to men. "


    When Cao Jie heard this, he was very happy and the smile on his face was very charming.


    The same is true of Huang Yueying and other women.


    They married Zhang Xiu, but in fact, here in Zhang Xiu, we can feel Zhang Xiu''s respect for them, without the slightest discrimination against women. Especially Cao Jie, her feelings are more profound.


    Zhang Xiu said, "tell me, what other industries are there?"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu is looking forward to it. He wants to see what these women can do.


    Cao Jie said with a smile: "in fact, there are also some small industries, such as grain merchants. Pig raising costs countless grains, hogwash and so on. We are also operating in the field of grain, but the scale is small. In addition, some other small industries are also involved, but they are not too complicated. After all, we need it, so we have it all by ourselves. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "throughout the world, I am not afraid of anyone. My woman is enough to be proud of the world, far more than any other king''s woman. She has a good wife in her family


    "Your Highness, praise me


    Cao Jie said, "Your Highness is the best if you don''t criticize us for not doing our proper work."


    Huang Yueying and others, one by one face is the same, all smile. Compared with other men, Zhang Xiu does not criticize them and gives them enough trust.


    While Zhang Xiu was chatting with the others, a servant girl rushed in and came to Zhang Xiu''s side. She said with a straight face: "Your Highness, Mr. Wang Yue asked to see you."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and got up to leave.


    When Zhang Xiu came out of the yard, Wang Yue came over in a hurry and reported: "Your Highness, I just received the news from the French prefect. It''s quite urgent."


    Then he handed over the letter.

 Chapter 879

    Zhang Xiu opened the letter and scanned it quickly.


    He read the contents of Fazheng''s letter at a glance. There is only one thing in the letter, that is, the sweet potato planted for the second time is about to mature and harvest.


    Last time a sweet potato seedling produced only six sweet potatoes. Qin Ji and other farmers, who are good at farming, cut six sweet potatoes into pieces and planted them with the sprouted seedlings. They cut the seedlings one after another and planted a piece of soil.


    Although not particularly many, there are also many.


    Wait for this harvest, not 20 or 30 jin, at least a thousand jin.


    After all, it''s seedling planting.


    When the sweet potato seedlings come out, they are continuously allocated by using the seedlings, so that they have the current scale.


    After Zhang Xiu knew, her heart was also happy.


    He looked at Wang Yue and said, "make arrangements. We''ll go south to Hanchang County immediately. This time, take Li Ru and Sima Yi with them. The rest of them are in Chang''an and pay attention to the business of Daqin bank. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue went to arrange it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard and said something to Huang Yueying, Cao Jie and other girls. Then she got up and left. When Zhang Xiu came to the gate of the palace, Sima Yi and Li Ru had already arrived.


    The reason why Li Ru was brought here was to let Li Ru have a look below and learn about sweet potato. For the sweet potato situation, Zhang Xiu is to inform the public.


    Everyone knows.


    It''s just that there are doubts in every heart.


    A grain yield of 5000-6000 Jin per mu is extremely terrible. From ancient times till now, it has never been. But all of a sudden, Zhang Xiu said that such a species, one by one heart, are suspicious.


    Li Ru also had a great reputation among the people, so he took him there.


    The rest of us must be in Chang''an.


    After all, the business of Daqin bank may be attacked at any time, so someone must take charge to maintain the situation.


    Zhang Xiu and his party did not take a carriage, but rode on horseback. All the way south, the speed is extremely fast, the average speed is more than 100 Li per day, the fastest time is 150 Li per day.


    It was in the first ten days of March when it entered the territory of Ba County.


    When Zhang Xiu came to Hanchang County, Fazheng met him directly on the official road. As soon as the two sides met, they went straight to the sweet potato planting site.


    Now, his highness said, "when you go to the place where the sweet potatoes are dead, you can go to the greenhouse in large quantities."


    "I''ve got to dig out a few of them. The output is really frightening."


    "The highest yield of a sweet potato plant is more than 30 jin. Each sweet potato, on average, has three or four Jin, which is really frightening. And we''ve cooked it. It''s very soft and glutinous. It can fill our stomach. "


    Fazheng said: "sweet potato taste, is really fragrant, even more delicious than the rest."


    Today''s FA Zheng has been tried.


    After all, he is the prefect of Bajun, as the person in charge, as the person who specializes in cultivating sweet potatoes. If he doesn''t teach in person, it''s hard to convince people, so he has already tried.


    Li Ru had an unbelievable look in his ears.


    The fruit of one plant is more than 30 jin.


    It''s a little scary. Of course, if it''s true, it''s the best.


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and couldn''t wait.


    They came to the greenhouse.


    This greenhouse, now has turned off the floor heating, no heating, and open on all sides, the light is excellent.


    Zhang Xiu looked at all the dead vines and the sweet potatoes planted in the whole soil, and her face was also happy. Without hesitation, he ordered, "reap!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, one by one farmers came forward.


    Some people specially cut the dead vines of sweet potatoes to expose the bare land, while the others took hoes and began to dig sweet potatoes. When a hoe goes down, the soft soil is scattered, and sweet potatoes are exposed one by one.


    At this time, some farmers specially wipe off the soil on the sweet potato, clean up the sweet potato, and constantly load the basket.


    Li Ru''s eyes widened at the moment.


    Incredible!


    It''s incredible!


    That''s too much.


    He carefully watched the farmer digging. Under the sweet potato vines, four or five of them were dug out, and they were all very symmetrical, and their sizes were not much different.


    Sima Yi is also an eye opener. He has read a lot of books since he was a child. I never knew that there were such sweet potatoes in the world. Even the yield of sweet potato is so huge.


    But Zhang Xiu recognized it at a glance.


    And then it was planted.


    So much so that today''s harvest.


    In Sima Yi''s eyes, Zhang Xiu is somewhat mysterious. He is not only good at both literature and martial arts, but also invented rice paper and so on. He even knows sweet potato, which is really powerful.


    "Congratulations to your highness, congratulations to your highness, we have nothing to worry aboutSima Yi bowed.


    Once the sweet potato is popularized, it can be predicted that there will be no famine in the whole Daqin kingdom. Because sweet potato planting, enough to ensure that countless people have food to eat.


    Li Ru suddenly said, "Your Highness, how to eat this sweet potato?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you can cook it and eat it, or you can cook it with rice. All in all, this is a very common way to eat. Of course, it''s OK to eat it raw, but it''s better to eat less. After all, it''s raw. "


    After that, he picked up a small sweet potato and asked Wang Yue to take a dagger and cut off the sweet potato skin.


    Sweet, crisp.


    It''s delicious.


    Zhang Xiu handed it to Li Ru and said, "come on, have a try. It tastes good."


    Li Ru took a bite, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Your Highness is right. It''s good to eat raw."


    Sima Yi also took a bite and said with a smile, "this sweet potato is really good!"


    Everyone was full of praise.


    Fazheng''s face was full of bright smile.


    With the promotion of sweet potato, his achievements in Bajun have been impeccable. Fazheng''s face was full of smile and joy from beginning to end.


    Time goes by little.


    In less than half an hour, all the sweet potatoes were dug up. After all, there were many people.


    All the sweet potatoes on the scale, the final statistical results, a full 2300 Jin.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Qin Ji and praised him: "Qin Ji, you are very good. This time you have a good harvest of sweet potatoes


    Qin Ji said, "Your Highness, you are not worthy of praise."


    "This time, we can produce so many sweet potatoes with a few sweet potatoes. In fact, only by continuously planting seedlings can we have the present harvest. If we go step by step, we will not be able to achieve this output. "


    "Because when the sweet potato seedlings germinate and grow up, they can be cut and planted continuously. After they survive, we can cut them again. As a matter of fact, the last batch of cutting and planting are all worse. "


    Qin Ji said: "after all, it''s not as good as the first time."


    Zhang xiudao: "this is already very good. Now this land is only about half an acre."


    Qin Ji replied, "less than half an acre. Roughly speaking, the yield of sweet potato per mu can reach 5000 Jin."


    At this point, Qin Ji''s face suddenly burst into tears.


    Zhang Xiu sees in the eye, but in the heart is some surprised, ask a way: "how to cry suddenly?"


    Qin Ji said: "the reason why I cry is because in the past, when children were young, there was a famine at home. There was no food, so I starved to death. If you have this sweet potato, you can''t starve to death. Even if you hang your life, you can hang it down. "


    He was filled with emotion.


    Because it''s true!


    If sweet potato can be promoted early, it will not be so.


    Zhang Xiu, with a heavy face, said: "after the promotion of sweet potato, people will no longer be threatened by hunger in this world. After we have solved the problem of food and clothing, more people will be able to eat meat. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Qin Ji spoke again.


    Now he has great respect for Zhang Xiu. Because it was Zhang Xiu who discovered sweet potato, and Zhang Xiu specially told them how to plant sweet potato, so as to have the sweet potato now.

 Chapter 880

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Qin Ji!"


    "The villain is here!"


    Qin Ji replied respectfully.


    His hands are rough and his face is rough. But it is precisely because of this pair of hard-working hands that sweet potatoes are now available.


    Qin Ji has made a great contribution!


    Zhang Xiu said: "I set up a garrison station to be responsible for planting sweet potatoes. You are in charge of sweet potato planting. Besides, I give you the title of Marquis of Guangyang Pavilion. I hope you will live up to your high expectations. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Qin Ji was very excited.


    He knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Xiu.


    He was a farmer. Unexpectedly, he became a garrison captain and a knighthood. Although this is the most basic Marquis of the pavilion, far less than the Marquis of the countryside and county, it is good to be a Marquis of the pavilion.


    Qin Ji''s face was full of excitement.


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Qin Ji trembled and stood up, slightly unaccustomed. After all, he is an ordinary people, and he will plant things a little bit. He suddenly becomes the Marquis of the pavilion and becomes an official. He has some weakness and maladjustment at his feet.


    Looking around at the rest of the people, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "all the other Yiying farmers who participated in the planting were rewarded and included in the farm. The establishment of Yiying''s official posts is being arranged by the law. "


    "Here it is


    Fazheng bows his hand and responds.


    It''s not difficult. On the contrary, it''s very simple.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Hanchang County left a thousand catties of sweet potato, with which to raise seedlings and carry out large-scale planting. The planting season of sweet potato is March and April, and it happens that it can be planted now. Although it''s a new species, when people see the sweet potato harvest in the second half of the year, they will plant it. "


    "I understand


    Fazheng nodded.


    Because after all the sweet potatoes are moved out of the greenhouse, the growth rate will be much slower, but it is enough for large-scale planting. After all, more than 1000 Jin of sweet potatoes are left in Hanchang county.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Fazheng and asked, "how are the other things going?"


    Fazheng said: "report to your highness, everything is going well. Whether it''s coal or stone, or vegetables in winter, everything else should go smoothly. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I look forward to your success!"


    FA Zhengdao: "I will live up to your Highness''s high expectations."


    Instead of staying more in Hanchang County, Zhang Xiu took sweet potatoes and a dozen people who could grow sweet potatoes and went north to Chang''an. Because there are 1000 catties of sweet potatoes in the carriage, bags of sweet potatoes in the carriage, the speed is much slower.


    When we return to Chang''an, it is already early April.


    It''s already warm.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the palace of King Qin, he ordered all the sweet potatoes to be put into the basket, and then he took some sweet potatoes and cooked them. Then, the six ministers under Zhang Xiu''s command, as well as the rest of the civil servants, including the generals in Chang''an, all ordered to be summoned.


    All the people under Zhang Xiu''s command know about sweet potato, and they also know that Zhang Xiu went to Bajun just for sweet potato. After they entered one by one, they saw the sweet potatoes in the basket. They were both curious and shocked.


    The sweet potatoes in front of us are huge. But they didn''t know whether it was delicious or the specific harvest.


    Jia Xu looked at Li Ru and asked, "Wenyou, what''s the situation with this sweet potato?"


    Li Ru didn''t say it directly, but said with a smile: "don''t worry for the time being, let me sell a pass. When your highness arrives, he will tell you in person that I won''t do anything for him. "


    The rest of the people are even more itchy.


    They all went up and had a look, but they didn''t understand.


    After a long time, everyone is here.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu entered the hall and sat down. She said with a smile, "sweet potatoes are in the hall. I think you''ve all seen them. Now, let''s not talk about the sweet potato. Let''s talk about it after eating it. "


    "Somebody, bring it in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In an instant, there were attendants coming in. One by one, with a bowl of sweet potato soup, the attendants came to everyone and put down the dishes. This sweet potato soup is the clear soup made from sweet potato.


    In each bowl, there are several sweet potatoes.


    On the way back, Li Ru and Sima Yi both ate some sweet potatoes and never tire of them. Now, when I see sweet potato soup, I also pick up chopsticks and swallow it quickly.


    The two people''s gluttonous appearance made the rest of the people''s tongue move.


    Jia Xu is getting older. When he eats a mouthful of sweet potato, he feels very comfortable. He took another sip of the soup. Although it was clear soup, it had the unique fragrance of sweet potato and the sweet taste of sweet potato.


    It''s memorable.


    Sweet potato is the best food for the elderly. It''s not only delicious but also easy to digest. It''s more beneficial to the stomach and intestines. It''s the best food.


    The rest, too, keep eating.


    After everyone had finished eating, Zhang Xiu asked, "how are you, gentlemen?""Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said with admiration, "Your Highness, for an old man like me with poor teeth, sweet potato is just a delicacy."


    "Old age, loose teeth, drop almost, a little hard, or a little difficult to chew the bread, eat very uncomfortable, just feel tummy tummy."


    "This bowl of sweet potato soup is very comfortable for the whole person."


    Jia Xu said: "especially in the stomach, it''s warm."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "in fact, sweet potato is an excellent food for the elderly."


    Jia Xu asked: "Your Highness, how is the sweet potato harvest?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "less than half an mu of land, we have harvested more than 2300 Jin. After conversion, the yield of one mu of land can reach 5000 Jin. Wang''s previous estimation is correct. In particular, sweet potato is very easy to promote cultivation. I took 1000 Jin of sweet potato back from Bajun. Next, all seedlings are planted. By the end of this year, we will be able to harvest countless sweet potatoes. "


    "Will it be promoted immediately?" asked Liu ba


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head.


    With a wise look in his eyes, he said: "in today''s situation, it will not be extended to the people for the time being. I brought someone who was good at planting to guide me. This time, all the plants were planted in the official fields, and the people were not allowed to plant them. By the end of the year, the people will see the sweet potato harvest. We don''t need to promote it. The people will want to plant it. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Xu Shu nodded and agreed with Zhang Xiu.


    People can''t believe in propaganda without understanding it. When countless people witness the miracle of sweet potato, they will believe and even plant it on a large scale.


    People are all for good and avoid evil, and they are all for profit.


    Zhang Xiu said about sweet potato again, but she didn''t say much. Then he arranged for all the sweet potatoes to be brought down for planting.


    There are numerous official fields in Chang''an, which can ensure the smooth planting of sweet potato.


    At this time, a servant came out of the hall and reported: "Your Highness, there is a man named Lin Yong outside the palace. He asked to see Mr. Liu Ba and said that there was something urgent to see him. "


    "Let him in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.

 Chapter 881

    Zhang Xiu knows about Lin Yong.


    This is one of the vice presidents of Daqin bank, and Liu BA''s most important assistant. In the whole system of Daqin bank, Lin Yong, the main vice president, is the person who knows finance best.


    Lin Yong has something urgent to report, Zhang Xiu''s heart is also vivid.


    Calculate the time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao should also act.


    Soon, Lin Yong entered.


    Lin Yong is now more than 30 years old. He is in his prime. When he entered the hall, he bowed to Zhang Xiu before turning to Liu Ba and reporting: "my Lord, I just received the news that there are two huge sums of money deposited in the bank today. However, the source of these two sums of money is not clear. I don''t know what the situation of the other party is. "


    Zhang Xiu heard in front of a bright, but he did not ask, but looked at Liu ba.


    Now Liu Ba is also the president of the bank.


    The matter is left to Liu ba.


    Liu Ba thought a little and said, "can you trace the whereabouts of the other party?"


    "No!"


    Lin Yong shook his head and replied: "after the other party left the bank, our people immediately left the bank for tracking, but the other party soon got rid of the tracking people, and disappeared completely and couldn''t find their whereabouts."


    Liu Ba thought for a while, waved his hand and said, "I know. Go back to work!"


    "Here it is


    Lin Yong bowed down.


    After Lin Yong stepped down, Liu Ba said: "Your Highness, I think Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have started to act. Or Cao Cao and Liu Bei, or Liu Bei and Yuan Shao. All in all, the other party must have arranged for someone to deposit a huge amount of money. "


    "Why?"


    Zhang Xiu asked faintly.


    Liu BA was neither humble nor arrogant, and replied: "the reason is actually very simple. If a normal person deposits money in Daqin bank, he will not be so confidential or leave quietly."


    "Especially in Daqin, there are only a few people with such financial ability."


    "Only Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and other princes and kings, they will be able to move quietly and have such financial resources. If they don''t hide their whereabouts and arrange people to save money, it''s hard to make people suspicious. "


    "But after they hide their whereabouts, they reveal their identity, which is suspicious."


    Liu Ba said: "this is the judgment of humble position."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, looked at the others and asked, "what do you think?"


    Jia Xu said, "what Liu Shangshu said is true."


    Xu Shu said, "I agree with you in your humble position."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, everyone agreed with Liu BA''s analysis and agreed with such words. In the current situation, only the princes such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are the most suspicious.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold and stern, and she said in a deep voice: "these days, I''ll watch carefully. The bank must not make any mistakes."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Every face has expectations.


    In Chang''an City, Cao Xu''s residence.


    Although he now lives in Chang''an City, he has to change his position from time to time, and will not live in the same place all the time. Because living in the same place is easy to expose identity.


    From time to time, he changed places.


    In the house, Cao Xu looks at the check in his hand, rubs the check, and ponders over the paper situation of the check. The cash note is a gold note. Because he deposited a large amount of gold, he has the gold note now.


    The quality of this gold ticket is quite different from any rice paper.


    Its toughness is better!


    Its texture is better!


    Even the thickness is different from ordinary rice paper.


    This has never been sold out, so although Cao Xu has a gold ticket in his hand, he can''t copy it even if he wants to.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the study.


    Cao Xu said, "what''s the matter?"


    "My Lord, come to see you in the morning," the valet reported


    "Please


    When Cao Xu heard this, he looked forward to it.


    Gao Chen is the intelligence chief arranged by Yuan Shao in Chang''an. Cao Xu and Gao Chen have met, and all the two talents have jointly deposited gold. In fact, after Cao Cao made a plan to unite with Yuan Shao, he arranged people to go north to Yecheng early to form an alliance with Yuan Shao. The two sides united to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Whether Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, they all want revenge in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    So, it''s a hit.


    Especially when Yuan Shao heard what bank Zhang Xiu set up, he thought it was Zhang Xiu''s suicide. As long as Daqin bank goes bankrupt, Zhang Xiu''s prestige and credit will collapse.


    Under such a premise, Daqin, where Zhang Xiu is located, has suffered a serious disaster.


    This is a chance to deal with Zhang Xiu!


    So Cao Cao and Yuan Shao sent orders to the intelligence chief of Chang''an, and they also quietly sent people to send money.Shortly after, Gao Chen entered.


    With a smile on his face, Gao Chen arched his hand and said, "brother Cao, you and I have met again. We agreed to deposit the money in Daqin bank. Now I''ve entered as agreed. I don''t know. Have you ever kept your promise


    "I won''t break the contract!"


    When he said that, Gao Chen took out a cash order from Daqin bank from his sleeve, handed it to Cao Xu and said, "brother Cao, look, it''s not fake."


    Cao Xu reached out his hand and understood.


    He also gave Gao Chen the cash in his hand to check.


    There were smiles on both faces.


    This first step has been completed. As long as there is this step, it is equivalent to depositing a large amount of money. In the next step, after they spread rumors, when countless people cashed in, they also went down the drain.


    At that time, let''s see how Zhang Xiu responds.


    Gao Chen felt good about himself and was very confident. He said: "brother Cao, although the plan we made is perfect, we have to be careful. If you win, you lose, you lose


    Cao Xu said: "there is no problem!"


    After a pause, Cao held up his head with confidence and said: "in the current situation, we not only have so many votes to cash, but also arrange for people to spread rumors. We will win this battle. "


    "Yes, we must win!"


    Gao Chen has a look of approval in his eyes.


    Gao Chen took a deep breath and said, "next time we will incite the people to withdraw money. But how to make it big and let countless people know? If no one knows, even if we go to cash, it won''t make a big difference. "


    "It''s not hard!"


    Cao Xu laughed and said: "I will arrange people to spread news everywhere that Zhang Xiu embezzled the money of Daqin bank, so that all the money stored in Daqin bank was in deficit."


    "Without money, there will be innumerable people to cash it."


    "In fact, the people don''t care whether things are true or not. What they care about is whether money can be exchanged."


    Cao Xu was very confident and said, "especially when it comes to matters of vital interest, once something goes wrong, the money saved in his life will be gone. So as long as you deposit money in the bank, you will be eager to go. "


    Gao Chen said, "what brother Cao said is true. This is the heart of the people."


    After a pause, Gao Chen continued: "brother Cao, make arrangements as soon as possible. In this respect, I will fully cooperate with you. Well, I''ll arrange for someone to release a message that when I exchange money, there is less cash, even no interest. "


    "As you said, once it comes to your own affairs, the people will be extremely anxious."


    "At that time, there will be countless people flocking. Even though Zhang Xiu had prepared quite a lot of money and gold in Daqin bank, countless people went there, which was enough to make Daqin bank collapse. "


    Gaochen is also a happy look.


    Very happy.


    Cao Xu said with a smile: "what my younger brother said is not even true."


    He turned his eyes and looked at the location of King Qin''s residence. His face looked very expectant.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is proud.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is self righteous.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu despises the world.


    This time, Zhang Xiu himself playing with fire, he took advantage of this opportunity, let Zhang Xiu plant a big somersault. As long as Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank completely declined, it means that Zhang Xiu will lose control of the whole Qin state.


    It''s a chain effect.


    In the current situation, Cao Xu is full of joy and believes that he can win.

 Chapter 882

    After the opening of Daqin bank, there are many affairs every day, and the people in the bank are very busy.


    After all, deposit and loan must be cautious. However, the existence of Daqin bank has indeed facilitated many transactions. The original large amount transactions are quite inconvenient. But with Daqin bank, all this has become easier.


    Especially when it comes to deposit and withdrawal, people have tried it. After deposit, it can be withdrawn, and there is interest. However, the shorter the deposit time, the less the interest. Rao is so, but the people are also used to the existence of Daqin bank.


    This day, near noon.


    In the south of Chang''an City, in a wine shop.


    The drinkers were drinking and eating, and there were many people coming and going.


    Just at this moment, a big, strong man suddenly looked at the man sitting next to him and said, "speaking of it, I just learned a very important piece of news."


    "What''s the news?"


    The people around him immediately agreed.


    Some people around are drinking and eating, and they don''t listen carefully. After all, they all have their own conversation, and they don''t pay attention to it.


    Zhuang Han once again said: "I heard that the king of Qin wanted to develop Yizhou, and he has suspended the supply of gold to Daqin bank. All the money from Yizhou gold mining will stay in Yizhou to support the development of Yizhou."


    "Not only that, the countless money deposited in Daqin bank also began to be transferred to Yizhou. After all, everyone knows that Yizhou is extremely difficult to enter. Not only to build roads, but also to constantly develop Yizhou. "


    The strong man said, "so now all the power of the state of Qin is in Yizhou."


    "Ha, what kind of big news you have."


    The people beside him, with a look of disdain, said: "as far as I know, the king of Qin started to give relief to Liangzhou with all his strength last month. Yang Xiu, the governor of Liangzhou, is the son of Yang Biao, the president of Chang''an Academy. When Yang Xiu was in charge of Liangzhou, there was a big mess in Liangzhou. Nowadays, the whole Liangzhou is desolate. To develop Liangzhou, we need countless money. Anyway, we have a lot of money in Daqin bank, and countless people deposit it every day. "


    "That''s true!"


    The strong man said with a smile: "anyway, I didn''t save any money. I don''t believe in interest. What the king of Qin did was to give the people a small profit and then embezzle our money. "


    Another humanitarian: "also cannot say so!"


    Two people sing and talk together.


    At this time, all the people around raised their ears to listen. Originally, the people around them all had their own chat. They were all eating, but when they heard what they said, they were all nervous.


    After the opening of Daqin bank, countless people deposited money to earn profits.


    But everyone is worried about something.


    So everyone listened carefully, and even someone came to inquire in person. The result is that the seven aunts and eight aunts in the palace of King Qin spread the news, which is solid and convincing.


    The same news has been publicized in restaurants all over Chang''an city.


    For a time, Chang''an was boiling.


    Countless people go around telling each other, telling their seven aunts and eight aunts, telling their neighbors. So much so that under the fierce discussion, countless people began to take their own cash notes and rush to the direction of Daqin bank, ready to exchange all the money deposited in Daqin bank.


    Everyone is worried about going late and not being able to cash in.


    The news was soon discovered by the royal guards.


    When the royal guards reported to Zhang Xiu and Wang yuechen reported to her, Zhang Xiu knew that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao''s men had mobilized, or Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s men, or even other princes and kings had been involved.


    These men launched an offensive.


    On the other hand, the location of Daqin bank is already overcrowded.


    Countless people lined up to exchange money. All the people in the bank had been prepared for this event, so they acted quickly one by one and opened all the windows to exchange money for all the people.


    Not only that, but also the army.


    The army is in order to maintain order.


    If there is no army to maintain it, once someone makes trouble, the situation will be difficult to control.


    This is the premise of all stability.


    In the bank up and down busy, Zhang Xiu has been to the bank in person.


    In Liu BA''s office, Zhang Xiu waits quietly. Liu Ba, Lin Yong and others all went to the bank to exchange money. They didn''t have time to accompany Zhang Xiu. At the gate of Daqin bank, countless people are talking about it, and many people are nervous.


    One by one to exchange, and then quickly leave with money.


    The people who get the money are very happy.


    People who don''t get the money are nervous.


    When everyone was particularly nervous, suddenly, news broke out in the crowd, and a large amount of money came to cash. With the spread of such news, the people''s conjecture is more true. They think that the bank has misappropriated money, and it must be unable to make ends meet.


    There must be someone who can''t cash in.


    So people are very nervous.Gao Chen and Cao Xu also came to Daqin bank in person.


    These two people are here to exchange money.


    However, Gao Chen came first. Because of the huge amount of money he deposited, he didn''t need to wait in line. There was a VIP room for Gao Chen to exchange money. On arrival in the morning, there will be a reception.


    When Lin Yong received the news, he immediately reported it to Liu Ba, who came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Highness, the last person who deposited a huge sum of money has arrived. The identity of the other party is in doubt. I don''t know who the other party is. But it should be the people of the princes, who deliberately want to cause unrest. "


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "last time, because the other party got the check and left in a hurry, it was not easy to find it. But now, since the other side exchanges a large amount of money, this is the opportunity to track. Wang Yue, you arrange the royal guards and keep an eye on each other. This time, we can''t let the other party escape. After waiting for the other party to settle down, take it directly. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded.


    After Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, the royal guards have moved quickly.


    Gao Chen is now totally unconscious.


    He is now exchanging money, ignoring the fact that his own exchange of money will expose his whereabouts. When the three boxes of pure gold cakes were sent out, Gao Chen left with people.


    This time he left, he swaggered away to let the people see him, so as to arouse people''s speculation.


    After Gao Chen left, the royal guards quietly followed him.


    On Cao Xu''s side, he is more cunning. He just arranged for a subordinate to come and exchange money, then he left with a few large boxes full of gold.


    These two actions have made the number of people exchanging money unprecedented.


    Countless people are exchanging money.


    However, even though there were countless people exchanging money, there was no trouble in the whole process when there was an army to maintain it. In addition, Daqin bank kept exchanging money without any problems.


    After many people saw it, they gradually felt at ease.


    After all, in the evening, there was no loophole. Even at this time, Liu Ba, the president of Daqin bank, went to the bank in person. He looked at the long line of people and announced, "folks, I already know why you came to exchange money. There is a rumor in the city that Daqin bank allocated countless money to Yizhou and Liangzhou."


    "I want to explain this point. It''s nothing."


    "You''re worried that you''ll run out of money and hurry to exchange it. I can understand that. But once again, I repeat that this is absolutely slander and nothing. "


    "In view of the fact that there are too many people exchanging money, today''s Daqin bank will not close down at night and exchange money all night to ensure that the people you come to exchange money can exchange their money."


    Speaking of this, he continued: "our bank, Daqin, will never cheat the world or steal its reputation, let alone harm the interests of the people. Please believe in Daqin bank. "


    After that, he bowed and turned back to the bank.


    When people heard this, they began to murmur. Because in the current situation, Daqin bank wants to exchange money all night, which is the performance of full confidence.


    In addition, Liu Ba refuted the rumors, so the hearts of the people were stable. Although there are still a lot of people exchanging money, the panic has been suppressed.


    It wasn''t Liu BA''s words that played a role. From the beginning to the end, Daqin bank was exchanging money to ensure that the people could cash it in time. There was no shortage of money.


    This is the reason for the people''s peace of mind.

 Chapter 883

    Gao Chen went back to his house with money blatantly. However, as soon as he returned, he immediately arranged for people to pack up their gifts and prepare to hide. It''s really inappropriate for him to take so much money to show off. He has to leave at night.


    But after Gao Chen had finished cleaning up, he took people out of the house. When he was ready to leave, he saw that the royal guards were standing at the door.


    The leader is Xu Zhen.


    His eyes slightly cold, deep voice way: "walk what walk, walk with us once."


    Gaochen was in a panic.


    Suddenly, it dawned on him.


    No, it''s a trick!


    Only at this time did he realize that when he returned with his money, his whereabouts were leaked. However, Gao Chen''s face was calm and said in a deep voice: "you directly broke into my house and wanted to detain me. Who are you? Who gave you the guts? "


    Xu Zhen waved his hand and said, "my dear Xu Zhen, the royal guards of the Qin Dynasty, on the order of the king of Qin, please go to the prison of the royal guards. Stop talking nonsense, come on, take it


    The royal guards around him immediately took gaochen into custody.


    In front of the royal guards, Gao Chen couldn''t struggle at all and was directly captured. Xu Zhen arranged for people to surround Gao Chen''s residence. No one was allowed to go in and out. After sealing up, he left with people.


    On the other hand, it''s more troublesome.


    Because Cao Xu didn''t show up in person, he arranged for people to take money back to the temporary residence.


    This is the joint.


    After the royal guards tailed in, Zeng Yun, the leader of the royal guards, was not in a hurry because he found that the other side was very careful in the whole process. So Zeng Yun has been patient with his mind. After waiting for about two quarters of an hour, Cao Xu''s people came to meet him.


    This is through the back door.


    All the money, all through the back door.


    When Zeng Yun saw this behind the scenes, he knew that he could go along with it. When he caught the people behind the scenes, he didn''t make any noise. He followed them quietly and finally came to Cao Xu''s house.


    After Zeng Yun arrived, he no longer hesitated and ordered to break in.


    After a fight, Zeng Yun arrested Cao Xu. He sneered and said, "in Chang''an, under the feet of the king of Qin, you are still in circles. You are careful enough. No matter how you toss, you can''t escape from my sight. Come on, all of you


    Zeng Yun gave a loud order.


    Together with Xu Zhen, he brought the man back to the prison of the Royal Guards for trial.


    After a trial, Cao Xu and Gao Chen failed to hold on. They all confessed and told their identities.


    In this way, the two talents report to the higher authorities.


    When the news reached Wang Yue''s hand, Wang Yue went straight to the palace of King Qin. During the day, Zhang Xiu had been in Daqin bank. When it was dark, Zhang Xiu went back to the palace.


    When Wang Yue saw Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Your Highness, we have caught Cao Cao and Yuan Shao''s men. The name of the person Cao Cao arranged in Chang''an is Cao Xu, and the name of the person Yuan Shao arranged is Gao Chen. "


    "These two have been taken."


    "They have confessed that this exchange wave was caused by the news spread by people they arranged. They did it in person in order to consume the money of Daqin bank. "


    "Unexpectedly, from beginning to end, Daqin bank was not affected."


    Wang Yue said solemnly: "in addition, all their money was also seized. After all, they have a lot of money. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "take them to the bank and give them to Liu ba. In addition, if Liu Ba wants to raise the interest rate slightly, he should take Cao Cao''s and Yuan Shao''s money as interest. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer.


    After he left in a hurry, he fished out Cao Xu and Gao Chen from the royal guards. Looking at the dying two, Wang Yue snorted and said coldly, "two idiots, with your ability, it''s not enough to stir up the wind and rain in Chang''an."


    He took people and went straight to Daqin bank.


    Today''s Daqin bank, there are still countless people in exchange for money. But now, there are fewer people. After all, Liu BA''s words during the day reassured many people. Those who don''t want to leave are still staying.


    Although there are people, at least there is no vast team in the daytime.


    At this time, Wang Yue escorted people to enter through the back door.


    When Wang Yue saw Liu Ba, he directly told him about the two men and handed them over to Liu ba.


    Liu Ba looks at Gao Chen and Cao Xu and thinks about how to deal with them. After half a sound, Liu Ba had a plan in mind, so he arranged for someone to take Gao Chen and Cao Xu out of the room and come to the gate of Daqin bank.


    He tied up the two men and put them on the stake.


    This scene is amazing.


    Why did you suddenly come out and stand on a stake.


    Liu Ba looked around at the people and said, "folks, of these two people, the one on the left is Gao Chen, and the one on the right is Cao Xu. Gao Chen is Yuan Shao''s spy in Chang''an, and Cao Xu is Cao Cao''s spy in Chang''an. ""In today''s exchange storm, the news that his highness moved money to support Liangzhou and Yizhou, and that the gold mine in Yizhou would no longer transport money to Daqin bank, was spread by two people."


    "Not only that, there are two huge sums of money today, which they exchanged."


    "The reason why they do this is to create a wave of exchange, hoping to cause great trouble to Daqin bank. But he did not expect that our bank has a solid foundation and is not afraid of any storm. "


    Liu Ba tossed a voice: "now these two people are in custody for three days. Three days later, they were executed. The only reason to keep them for three days is to let you see them clearly and avoid you saying that this is the scapegoat pushed by Daqin bank. "


    "In addition, I have asked your Highness for instructions."


    "In view of this exchange trend, although there are some waves, it is safe and sound. In particular, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao took out a huge sum of money in Chang''an to deal with his highness. Now all the money has been collected. "


    "All the money collected will be deposited in Daqin bank. From tomorrow, the interest rate of Daqin bank will rise again. I''ll let you know how much it will float tomorrow. "


    "All the money collected will be distributed as interest to all the people who deposit the money in Daqin bank."


    Liu Ba gives the plan.


    As soon as this was said, countless people cheered.


    One by one, the common people looked at Cao Xu and Gao Chen with sharp eyes. They wanted to eat them alive.


    It''s these two people who make them work so hard.


    Liu Ba raised his hand and pressed down. After the people were quiet, he continued: "in fact, if Cao Cao and Yuan Shao''s people did not spread rumors wantonly and incite wind and rain, his highness would not be able to deal with Gao Chen and Cao Xu."


    "Because our Daqin bank is open to business, people under the rule of Daqin, or people from the state of Cao Wei and Jin can save money. As long as it''s reasonable and legal, Daqin bank will accept it. It won''t lose money just because they are from the state of Wei and the state of Jin. "


    Liu Ba said: "even though the state of Qin is opposed to Cao Wei and Da Jin, we, Daqin bank, are open to business. Regardless of our position, we only recognize money and welcome anyone to save money."


    As soon as the words came out, countless people cheered.


    The common people feel that the atmosphere.


    The heart of Daqin bank is different. Even Cao Wei and Dajin do business.

 Chapter 884

    After dealing with the affairs of Daqin bank, Liu Ba went back to the bank for a rest. In fact, when he dealt with Gao Chen and Cao Xu, the number of people who exchanged money decreased rapidly, and people kept leaving.


    The exchange crisis is calming down.


    He didn''t report the situation immediately. He didn''t come to the palace until the next morning. Wait to see Zhang Xiu, Liu Ba directly said last night''s processing plan.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded her approval.


    I don''t have any opinions about how Liu Ba is handled, and Liu BA''s way of handling is excellent. After Liu Ba retreated, Zhang Xiu thought about it, wrote two letters immediately, called for Wang Yue, gave the letter to Wang Yue, and then asked Wang Yue to arrange the royal guards to send the letters to Chang''an and Yecheng.


    He wanted to stimulate Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.


    The speed with which the royal guards deliver information is extremely fast. However, in five or six days, the news reached Xu Du first. The royal guards of Xundu moved quickly and nailed the letter to Xun Yu''s porter.


    Xun Yu is Cao Cao''s confidant.


    When Xun Yu saw the letters, especially the handwriting of the king of Wei, and finally the signature of the king of Qin, Zhang Xiu. After seeing such a letter, Xun Yu took it down, did not dare to delay, and quickly went to the palace of King Wei.


    When Xun Yu arrived at the palace of King Wei, he saw Cao Cao and said, "Your Highness, there is a letter written by Zhang Xiu on the door of the humble residence. This should be, Zhang Xiu wants to let a person humble position, hand over to you. This letter should have been written by Zhang Xiu himself. "


    Cao Cao frowned.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly arranged a messenger and nailed it to Xun Yu''s door.


    It''s kind of weird.


    Cao Cao quickly opened the letter.


    After seeing the contents of the letter, he raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Cao Xu failed in Chang''an. Not only that, Cao Xu has been arrested and executed. All the money that Cao Xu operated in his hands went to Daqin bank. "


    Cao Cao was angry at this moment.


    He didn''t expect that Cao Xu had been lurking in Chang''an and was easily caught.


    This is surprising.


    After hearing this, Xun Yu felt a little worried. But he suddenly said, "Your Highness, is this letter forged?"


    "No!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "I know Zhang Xiu''s handwriting. This letter is really written by Zhang Xiu. He personally arranged for people to send letters, which was nothing more than showing off and showing off again. "


    "Come and call Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and Xun you to the palace."


    Cao Cao gave the order.


    The servant went down to inform Cao Cao, but Cao Cao''s face was as deep as water.


    All the money that was transported to Chang''an last time was a lot of money. For Cao Cao, the current state affairs are difficult, and this sum of money is also quite important. But Cao Cao did not expect that in a short period of time, all this money rushed into Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank, which was tantamount to helping Zhang Xiu, making Cao Cao very unwilling.


    Soon, Guo Jia and others arrived.


    Cao Cao looked around the crowd and said that Cao Xu had been arrested.


    Everyone was very surprised.


    No one thought that all of a sudden, this would happen. In their expectation, Cao Xu''s operation in Chang''an should be relatively easy. But in the end, it was a big fall.


    Cao Cao''s face was as deep as water. He looked at Guo Jia and said, "in honor of filial piety, Zhang Xiu specially arranged for people to send letters. You said, "how should we deal with the current situation?"


    "No way!"


    Guo Jia shook her head and answered.


    Even now, he can''t think of a way. Originally thought that the existence of Daqin bank is an opportunity to deal with Zhang Xiu. But now, it is a failure, but also the loss of countless money.


    Cao Cao bit his teeth and said, "is that all? I, Cao Cao, have been fighting for many years in the north and south of the country, but I have been defeated in such an obscure way. The loss is so huge that I am not willing to accept it. "


    Cheng Yu sighed and said, "Your Highness, we will join hands with Cao Cao this time. Even Cao Xu was defeated. It''s estimated that Yuan Shao was almost the same. Now that we are defeated, it is useless to talk about it. Under the current situation, the humble officials think that they can only restrain for a while and strive to unite Yuan Shao, Liu Bei and sun CE to attack Zhang Xiu. "


    Suddenly, Guo Jia said: "in fact, there is no way to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the plan for fengxiao?"


    Guo Jia explained: "Zhang Xiu is on guard against the second Daqin bank exchange storm. So we intended to deal with Daqin bank. Instead, we took our own people in. Of course, Cao Xu didn''t know how to protect himself, so he fell into the trap. Now, after one experience, Zhang Xiu''s vigilance is bound to relax. Another plan for Daqin bank, or another one, is likely to be useful. "


    Cao Cao sighed: "filial piety is different between Wei and Qin. Even though we have a large number of states under our jurisdiction, in fact, our finances are not easy. Now it''s impossible to deal with Zhang Xiu with real gold and silver. If we do it again, I''m afraid the family of Wei will be hollowed out. "


    "Alas..."


    Guo Jia said, "there''s no way."Xun you said, "when I came to the palace, I happened to get a piece of news outside."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s the news?"


    Xun you replied: "in terms of Daqin bank, it is publicized that if Cao Xu does not have ulterior motives, then Cao Xu''s money in Daqin bank can not be confiscated. No matter the state of Wei or the people of Qin, they can deposit their money in Daqin bank. As long as they don''t have the mind to violate the law and discipline, there is no problem. "


    After a pause, Xun you said: "what''s more, these rumors also say that the strength of Wei is not as good as that of Qin. Sooner or later, it will be destroyed. It''s better to deposit the money in Daqin bank in advance to avoid losing it. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Cao Cao heard this, he slapped him on the desk.


    He was furious.


    Cao Cao breathed, breathed, and hummed in his brain. The problem of head disease, accompanied by the outbreak, made him very uncomfortable.


    "Your Highness, calm down!"


    Seeing this, Xun you, Guo Jia and others persuaded one after another.


    One heart, do not want Cao Cao angry, after all, Cao Cao''s body is not very good.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, and after half a sound, he was calm again. He looked around the crowd and said, "Zhang Xiu can establish Daqin bank. Why can''t the state of Wei? What do you think of the establishment of a big Wei bank in China? "


    "Not right!"


    Cheng Yu answered without hesitation.


    Cao Cao said, "why?"


    Cheng Yu explained: "Your Highness, the business of Daqin bank was created by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu knows the most about the bank. It''s not a good thing for us to learn from Zhang Xiu to set up a bank at this time. What if we were blocked after the establishment of Dawei bank? "


    Xun you echoed: "the lower official even suspected that Zhang Xiu was deliberately spreading news and was deliberately urging his highness to set up a bank in Xudu so that he could deal with us."


    "It''s possible!" Guo Jia said


    When Cao Cao heard this, he could not help taking a breath. Just now, in his anger, Cao Cao wanted to set up a bank in Xudu, which belongs to the state of Wei, to learn from Zhang Xiu. Now when I heard what Cheng Yu and Guo Jia said, I was also on guard, so I put out my mind and was no longer willing to set up Daqin bank.


    Cao Cao sighed: "it''s really exhausting to be enemies with people like Zhang Xiu. This time, I wanted to deal with Zhang Xiu. Unexpectedly, I put myself in again. "


    Cheng Yu said: "now we have to deal with Zhang Xiu with absolute strength. The best way is the coalition forces of four or even five countries. Gather Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, sun CE and our troops together to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army. However, such a thing is not easy. "


    Cao Cao said, "have a try."


    After a pause, Cao Cao said, "this is the only way to deal with Daqin bank. That''s it. Now, the state of Wei is making every effort to develop its own strength. For the time being, don''t tease Zhang Xiu. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.

 Chapter 885

    The state of Jin, Yecheng.


    In the imperial city.


    Yuan Shao is working hard in a courtyard of the harem. Originally, he doted on Yuan Shang''s mother. But now Yuan Shao, as the emperor of the state of Jin, accepted many concubines, and the palace was full of beautiful women.


    With young and beautiful women, yuan Shaozao has abandoned his old love and lingered on the flowers of the harem all day, indulging in the beds of young women.


    Now Yuan Shao''s body is much weaker, and his steps are more vain.


    After all, it''s empty.


    On this day, when yuan shaozheng and his palace maids were hanging out in the bed, an inner servant came in and reported that Ju Shi wanted to see them. Yuan Shao is in the mood, very impatient waved his hand: "let him wait!"


    After that, Yuan Shao continued to mingle with the palace maids. After half an hour, Yuan Shao kneaded his sour waist, dragged his steps, and went to the main hall wearing some wrinkled coronal clothes.


    Entering the main hall, Yuan Shao saw Ju Shi and complained impatiently: "Ju Qing, I have said it several times. As an important Minister of the auxiliary state, you can judge things directly. You don''t have to report everything. What are you doing here today? "


    When he saw Yuan Shao''s face showing impatience, he sighed in his heart. He felt that he hated iron but not steel. Up to now, Yuan Shao is still addicted to women.


    Color is a bone scraper!


    Beauty and hero grave, so it is!


    Since the report to his majesty, yuan gongfeng has not been able to answer the news directly


    "What''s the news?" Yuan Shao asked


    Ju replied: "Gao Chen exposed his identity in Chang''an, and was caught by Zhang Xiu''s royal guards. After Gao Chen was killed, all the money he had was seized by Zhang Xiu and rushed into Daqin bank. "


    "Waste!"


    When Yuan Shao heard this, he suddenly got angry, blew his beard and glared, gritted his teeth and said, "gaochen is useless. I gave him tens of thousands of taels of gold through various channels. This is not a small amount. Unexpectedly, he was exposed and killed, and his money was seized by Zhang Xiu. This is tantamount to subsidizing Zhang Xiu. "


    "When Gao Chen was killed, Cao Xu, who was arranged by Cao Cao in Chang''an, was also killed. The money Cao Cao sent to Chang''an was also reduced to Zhang Xiu''s bag. "


    "They are all money giving boys!"


    Yuan Shao shook his head and sighed.


    Ju zhengse said: "our tens of thousands of taels of gold, as well as the money arranged by Cao Cao, all went into Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank. Originally, our intention was to run on Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank and let it collapse. But I did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank, not only did not collapse, but was very stable. Even through this incident, countless people believe in Daqin bank more. "


    Yuan Shao''s eyes were rolling, and suddenly he leaned forward. He looked very interested and said, "speaking of Daqin bank, I have some ideas."


    I had a bad feeling in my heart.


    Nowadays, Yuan Shao, who interferes in government affairs, always makes money out of his pocket.


    It''s not a good thing.


    When Yuan Shao opened his mouth, his heart sank, but he also asked, "what do you think of your majesty?"


    With a smile on his face, Yuan Shao said, "Zhang Xiu can touch the tiger''s butt, just like Yuan Shao. This time, Zhang Xiu set up Daqin bank in Chang''an, and I also intend to set up a Dajin bank. "


    Yuan Shao confidently said: "like Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank, Dajin bank also accepts the deposit of money and can also lend. I have been thinking about Daqin bank and found that it is an excellent way to absorb money. "


    I sigh in my heart.


    It''s not a good thing to hear Yuan Shao''s tone.


    Zhang Xiu''s establishment of Daqin bank is beneficial to the people, but also to concentrate money to do things. Even Zhang Xiu could not move the money of Daqin bank without authorization. Yuan Shao is different. Yuan Shao can''t help it. If Yuan Shao misappropriates the bank''s money, the bank''s money will go wrong. At that time, the whole Jin Dynasty will go wrong because of Yuan Shao''s misappropriation.


    That''s what I''m worried about.


    He took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I''m afraid it''s not right."


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s wrong?"


    "We are not familiar with banking business at all," he explained. After all, the establishment of the bank was proposed by Zhang Xiu. In case Zhang Xiu is in the interior, we don''t know what means he has, and we are easy to encounter big problems. Although banks are good, they are actually a double-edged sword. If we don''t make good use of it, it will have a huge impact on ourselves. "


    "You worry too much!"


    Yuan Shaoda said, "juqing, I have decided to set up a bank."


    He couldn''t persuade him. After a change of heart, he suggested, "Your Majesty, this is a big deal. Do you want to invite Guo Tu and the judge to discuss it? Let''s see what Guo Tu and Shen Pei suggest. Moreover, the crown prince supervises the state and also assists his Majesty in handling state affairs. You can ask the crown prince for his opinions. "


    "All right!"Yuan Shao arranged it immediately.


    Soon, Guo Tu, Shen Pei and Yuan Shang entered the hall.


    Yuan Shao said quickly about Gao Chen''s murder, but the focus was not on Gao Chen. He continued: "Zhang Xiu set up Daqin bank, but I don''t want to lose to Zhang Xiu."


    "So I''m going to set up Dajin bank, a bank of our own. Then, let the people invest money, and then give the people the corresponding interest. "


    "Dajin also has gold mines. Similarly, the finance of Dajin is enough to support the operation of Dajin bank. In particular, the people''s money is invested in our Dajin bank. It''s bound up with Dajin, and it''s safe to do things


    Yuan Shao said, "what do you think?"


    When Yuan Shang heard this, he immediately echoed: "what my father said is that Zhang Xiu has Daqin bank. Jin is far stronger and richer than Qin. We can''t be weaker. We should have our own bank."


    Guo Tu echoed: "I agree with his Highness the prince."


    "Your Majesty, be careful in this matter!"


    The judge frowned and said, "we only got some superficial information about the formation of the bank, and only knew some brief information. Zhang Xiu''s Bank, in the end how to prepare, and how to maintain normal operation, are not known


    Yuan Shao brushed his sleeves and said, "this is a simple matter. I have collected all the information about Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank. We just need to draw a picture according to the gourd. Since the crown prince and Guo Tu all agree, this matter has been settled. There is no need to discuss it any more. "


    He opened his mouth, but before he could speak, he saw Yuan Shao''s sharp eyes.


    At that time, I drew back my words.


    He stopped talking and sighed in his heart. In fact, he didn''t agree to open a bank, but Yuan Shao insisted on going his own way. Even if he wanted to block it, he couldn''t help it.


    After pondering in his heart, Yuan Shao said, "Guo Tu listens to the order!"


    "I''m here!"


    Guo Tu bowed to salute, but his heart was excited.


    When Yuan Shao called him out at this time, it was obvious that he was in charge of the bank, which was a big problem.


    Yuan Shao said, "I appoint you as the president of Dajin bank to preside over the preparation of Dajin bank. It must be done in a month. Like Zhang Xiu, the business of Dajin bank can be publicized and spread ahead of time. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Tu responded with excitement.


    When he became the president of the bank, he was in charge of the financial power of the state of Jin. Then he rose up in power and became no less powerful than he was given. After all, Dajin bank deals with money.


    He looked at the change of Guo Tu''s manner and sighed in his heart. According to his idea, even the trial and match is more suitable than Guo Tu, but Yuan Shao ordered it, and he could not refute it.


    You can only take one step and see one step!

 Chapter 886

    The news of Yuan Shao''s preparation for the establishment of Dajin bank was not hidden, but carried on with great publicity. So that the royal guards in Yecheng got the news at the first time, and then quickly sent it back to Chang''an.


    After receiving the letter, Wang Yue quickly went to the palace to report and said, "Your Highness, in Jizhou, Yuan Shao started to set up Dajin bank. Not only that, Yuan Shao appointed Guo Tu as the president of Dajin bank and let him preside over everything. "


    Zhang Xiu smelled the speech and laughed.


    Yuan Shao took the bait.


    This bank can raise funds, involving countless money, Yuan Shao can''t control the power of the flood and famine in his body, so he chose to intervene. Now Yuan Shao intervenes, which means that Zhang Xiu has an opportunity to deal with Yuan Shao.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "is there any news about the state of Wei now? On Cao Cao''s side, whether he will set up a bank or not. "


    Wang Yue said: "there is no news that the state of Wei has set up a bank."


    With a sigh and a look of regret, Zhang Xiu said, "it seems that Cao Cao was worried about the risks of establishing a bank, so he did not establish it. But it doesn''t matter. Anyway, Yuan Shao took the bait. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Highness, can we use the royal guards to deal with Yuan Shao''s Dajin bank?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head with a smile and said: "the royal guards under your command can kill people and spy on intelligence. We can use the means to deal with Dajin bank, but the ability is far from enough. You''d better forget it. "


    Wang Yue smiles.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are not unreasonable. Most of the royal guards under his command are Rangers. There are a lot of people who don''t know a big character. There are few people who really have some knowledge and ability. It''s not easy for the royal guards to finish this.


    Zhang Xiu said, "call Liu Ba!"


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to inform immediately.


    After a while, Liu Ba rushed into the study. Now into may, the weather has been a little hot. Liu Ba walked in quickly. For a moment, he was already a little feverish.


    After Liu Ba saluted, he asked, "I don''t know if your Highness has summoned me. What can I do for you?"


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how familiar is Lin Yong with Daqin bank now?"


    Liu Ba said solemnly, "I would like to report back to your highness. As one of the vice presidents, Lin Yong is very familiar with the business and has been involved in the whole business of Daqin bank. During this period, he has gradually begun to delegate power, and he is familiar with more and more businesses. Not only that, he is extremely steady in handling affairs and has great talent in this field. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s good!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "just received the news from the royal guards, Yuan Shao is preparing to build Dajin bank in Yecheng. Yuan Shao can''t wait to make money through the bank. "


    Liu Ba said, "what does your highness mean?"


    He had a guess in his heart, but he asked actively to see what Zhang Xiu said.


    Zhang Xiu said: "my plan is that since Yuan Shao has arranged people to block the Bank of Daqin, I want to return my teeth with my teeth. The bank is a double-edged sword. If it is used well, it is a sharp weapon with no future but no disadvantage. If it is not used properly, it will affect the whole system and cause great damage. I''m going to take Lin Yong and go to Yecheng in person. "


    After hearing this, Liu Ba didn''t find anything strange.


    Zhang Xiu is such a character.


    Don''t be idle!


    Liu Ba thought for a moment, and said, "Your Highness, Yecheng is the hinterland of Jin after all. If you go to the state of Jin alone, I''m afraid it will be difficult for you to help in time in case of any danger. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yecheng also has the royal guards. What''s more, I''m just controlling behind the scenes, and I won''t personally operate them. The external responsibility is mainly arranged by Lin Yong. "


    In fact, the reason why Zhang Xiu dares to go out often is that the royal guards are good enough on the one hand, and the six departments under his command have formed a virtuous circle. There are six officials handling government affairs, and Xu Shu takes the lead, so he doesn''t need to worry about it.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu dare to go out.


    He is not willing to stay in the deep palace. It''s really boring to stay in the palace.


    Liu Ba thought about it and knew that he couldn''t persuade Zhang Xiu. He said, "Your Highness, when it comes to going to Yecheng, do you want to invite all the ministers, Sima Yi, Zhang Song and others to ask for their opinions?"


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu called for the valet to inform her.


    Not long after, Li Ru, Jia Xu and other ministers, as well as Sima Yi, Pang Tong and other key members of the Qin palace, also came to the hall one by one and took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu immediately said that Yuan Shao was going to build Dajin bank and that he was going to take Lin Yong with him.


    When they heard this, they were helpless.


    No way. Zhang Xiu is wild. No one can control her.


    Jia Xu solemnly said: "Your Highness, when you go to Yecheng, you must be careful of your safety. Your highness should know that you are the pillar of the state of Qin. If anything happens to your highness, the flourishing state of Qin will be destroyed. "


    "What Jia Shangshu said is true," Li said


    The rest echoed.


    Sima Yi said, "Your Highness will take Lin Yong with you this time. I beg you to go.""No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "this time, it''s not complicated. You went to Yecheng. You can''t help. Not only that, you''re in public, you''re in danger. This time, I only took Lin Yong with me, and the rest of us didn''t take any. "


    Sima Yi sighed in her heart.


    He is still young and wants to increase his qualifications, so he is willing to go north. But if Zhang Xiu doesn''t take him north, it doesn''t matter. Anyway, he stays in Chang''an and can learn from Jia Xu, Li Ru and others.


    Zhang Song sat aside, but he didn''t say much. Although he never forgets, he is quite outstanding in talent and learning. However, after contacting Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Li Ru and others, we found that these people were extremely powerful one by one.


    Naturally, he was cautious in his words and deeds.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged everything properly, she asked everyone to step down. He went back to the backyard and told Huang Yueying and other girls the news that he was going to leave. They were all used to it, but asked Zhang Xiu to pay attention to safety.


    Especially now Zhang Xiu''s many women have countless things to do. So one by one is not entangled with Zhang Xiu all day, but is very busy.


    After arranging everything, Zhang Xiu waited for a day for Lin Yong to hand over things.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu left Chang''an with Wang Yue and Lin Yong. However, Zhang Xiu''s departure was confidential. Except for the six ministers under Zhang Xiu''s command, the other lower level officials and even a group of generals did not know the specific situation.


    From Chang''an to Hongnong County, then to Hanoi County, the road is smooth. Today''s Hongnong county and Hanoi county are developing very well. Under Hu Zhao''s administration, Hanoi county has a harmonious government and people, and the imperial examination has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that countless people know about the imperial examination, and also let countless poor scholars, as well as those who can not be reused, see the hope and support this policy one by one.


    Zhang Xiu did not go to see Hu Zhao. After a short stay in Huai County, she continued to go north.


    When we arrived in Yecheng, it was only early June. It''s a little hot, but it''s within the acceptable range. There is the royal guards in Ye City, and they are powerful.


    In the past, when Tian Feng was jailed by Yuan Shao, it was the Royal Guard Miao under Wang Yue who took Tian Feng away with his hand, even Zhang''s family members.


    Today''s Miao Yong is in charge of the royal guards in Jizhou.


    It can be said that it is magnificent.


    When Miao Yong learned that Zhang Xiu had personally arrived in Ye County, he was excited. He left the city early, ready to meet Zhang Xiu. For Miao Yong, Zhang Xiu is the person he respects very much.


    Because of the existence of Zhang Xiu, he can enter the officialdom; because of the existence of Zhang Xiu, he can support his family; because of the existence of Zhang Xiu, he can show his ambition.


    All this is because of Zhang Xiu.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is the king of Qin. Such a person decides Miao Yong''s official career, so he is even more excited about the arrival of Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhang Xiu came, he had a better chance to work beside Zhang Xiu. As long as he is respected by Zhang Xiu, it will be easier for him to rise in the future.

 Chapter 887

    Miao uses a person to stand outside the city and wait. When he sees Zhang Xiu, he is shocked to see her young appearance. Even though today''s Zhang Xiu is more than 20 years old, in fact, she is used to having a white face, so she has no beard and looks very young.


    Miao Yong, however, did not say much. With Zhang Xiu and his party, he entered the city smoothly.


    They live in the city.


    Miao Yong bowed slightly and said, "I don''t know what''s the plan for your highness to go north to Yecheng?"


    Today''s Miao Yong only receives news that Zhang Xiu is going north. Although he personally met Zhang Xiu outside the city, he didn''t know his intention of going north, and his heart was full of doubts.


    Zhang Xiu explained: "when I went to Yecheng in the north, my main task was to deal with the Dajin bank that Yuan Shao was planning to build."


    Miao Yong said: "Your Highness is just in time. Three days later, it''s the opening time of Dajin bank. Don''t worry, your highness. I''ve arranged for the royal guards to make trouble. At that time, we will make sure that Yuan Shao''s Dajin bank is in a mess. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "your idea is good. But this kind of disturbance is just a little bit of mischief and has no effect. All the royal guards you arranged will be suspended. "


    "Here it is


    Miao Yong didn''t want to answer directly.


    He didn''t ask.


    He is the royal guards.


    The royal guards only need to carry out Zhang Xiu''s orders. Since Zhang Xiu has arrangements, he will carry out them. What''s more, compared with his arrangement, it''s obvious that Zhang Xiu is well prepared.


    Zhang Xiu did not mention the specific arrangements for the time being. Looking at Miao Yong, she praised: "as the person in charge of Jinguo royal guards in Jizhou, you should rescue Zhang''s family first, and then send Tian Feng away. And the news of the whole Jin state can be sent back in time. You are very good. "


    "Your Highness, praise me


    Miao Yong''s heart is full of joy. Did not expect that he did things in the past, Zhang Xiu can say, let his heart incomparable joy.


    People like Zhang Xiu, as a king of a country, can''t be described as too much by means of daily management. But Zhang Xiu clearly said what he had done, which made him excited.


    There is a feeling of being highly valued.


    As a knight errant, Miao Yong is actually employed but despised by others, although he is armed. Just like this, Miao Yong''s praise for Zhang Xiu is extremely excited, and he feels that he will die without regret if he works for such a person as Zhang Xiu.


    He would not say that a man died for a confidant, but he was very excited.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Daqin fought with other countries. He fought with Wei, Jin and even Yuan Shao several times. But every time, the information of the royal guards can be delivered in time. You can''t do without the contribution of the Jinguo royal guards. I''m very glad that the royal guards in Shanxi are very good. "


    Miao knelt down with a plop and said, "we serve your highness, and we will die."


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Miao Yong stands up, slightly bows his back, and is even more grateful to Zhang Xiu.


    Lin Yong stands behind Zhang Xiu. He hears all of Zhang Xiu''s words. Miao Yong''s manner, he also saw all in the eyes, heart with emotion. In other words, he will deal with things. He is sure to do business. He will deal with things as soon as he comes up. He won''t praise anything, and he won''t do things as usual.


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, although it took a little time, Miao Yong and other Jinguo royal guards were able to appreciate Zhang Xiu''s kindness and serve wholeheartedly.


    That''s the trick!


    In other words, this is Zhang Xiu''s way of life.


    Zhang Xiu asked some questions about her family and the royal guards of the state of Jin. At last, she turned to the topic and said, "how much do you know about Yuan Shao''s establishment of the grand Jin bank?"


    Miao Yong said: "return to your highness, all the information is under the control of the royal guards."


    "That''s good!"


    With a look of approval on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "the first thing you need to do now is to arrange the royal guards under her command, and start to make a big noise for the establishment of Dajin bank. You arrange people to go around to publicize, that is to say, saving money to Dajin bank has many advantages. We should encourage the people of the state of Jin and the merchants under Yuan Shao to deposit money in Dajin bank! "


    "Ah


    Miao Yong heard a exclamation, his face full of doubts, said: "Your Highness, we do not mean to help Yuan Shao''s Dajin bank gain a firm foothold?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you want to take it first, you must give it first. If we want to plan for Dajin bank, we should naturally give him enough benefits. What''s more, how high you hold a person, how much you fall. Let Dajin bank stand firm, not to help Yuan Shao, but to better deal with Yuan Shao. "


    Miao with a listen immediately understand, solemnly way: "yes, yes, humble position according to the king said to do."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you have a second thing!"Miao said, "Your Highness, please tell me!"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "the second thing is to arrange people to find out, in addition to Guo Tu as the president of Dajin bank, who is the vice president of Dajin bank, as well as the main officials below, all to find out."


    Miao Yong replied, "I would like to report to your highness that Guo Tu is the president of Dajin bank, and there are three other vice presidents. We are familiar with these people. But people at a lower level don''t know for the time being. From beginning to end, no news has come out. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "don''t worry, but we have to find out these things in the future. Because next, we''ll use it. "


    "Here it is


    Miao should fight with his fist.


    The royal guards under his command are the best at information.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "next, there is a third thing. There are some people in your royal guards who have a relationship with Yuan Shao. In other words, he held an important position in Prince yuan Shang''s mansion


    "Yes!"


    Miao zhengse said: "I''ll report to your highness. Just half a month ago, Yuan Shang recruited a swordsman. In the royal guards, a man with excellent swordsmanship has come to Yuan Shang''s side to serve as his swordsman and teach him swordsmanship."


    After a pause, Miao Yong said: "it''s just to teach yuan Shang''s swordsmanship. In fact, it''s to protect yuan Shang''s safety. After Yuan Shang learned a few swordsmanship moves, he never learned any more from the beginning to the end. Yuan Shang is just looking for a guard. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "no harm, someone can follow yuan Shang. What''s his name?"


    Miao Yong said: "I''ll report to your highness. His name is Su Hong. He is the deputy commander of the Jinguo royal guards. Moreover, Su Hong is loyal to his highness. "


    Zhang said: "in the evening, let him come back. I want to see him. Besides, what you have just arranged for you to do, you should arrange it immediately without delay. "


    "Here it is


    Miao should bow down.


    He didn''t delay any longer and immediately turned to quit.


    After Miao Yong left, Wang Yue said, "Your Highness, do you still need to call the royal guards brought by your humble position?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "no need for the time being!"


    Lin Yong asked, "Your Highness, what are you responsible for?"


    Lin Yong is also experienced in banking matters, but he is not complacent at all. Because the setting of Daqin bank is arranged by Zhang Xiu, and the structure of all banks is also arranged by Zhang Xiu. Obviously, Zhang Xiu is good at this.


    He came with Zhang Xiu. He just had to study hard.


    The rest, according to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    This is Lin Yong''s setting.


    Especially before he came here, Liu Ba had specially entrusted that as long as he did well in this case, he would be the president of Daqin bank after returning to Chang''an. This is Lin Yong''s opportunity.


    Therefore, Lin Yong''s heart is also to play twelve spirit, ready to leave a good impression on Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 888

    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "what you need to do now is to make friends with Guo Tu and the other three vice presidents. Let Miao Yong prepare a merchant identity for you, and then go to make friends with Guo TU with this identity. "


    "This time, open the way with money, move Guo TU with money, let Guo Tu lend to you."


    "What we have to do now is to bribe Guo TU with money, and then borrow money from Dajin bank to empty Yuan Shao''s family. With the continuous lending of Dajin bank, even if it deposits countless money, it can''t stand the toss. "


    "What''s more, Yuan Shang and Yuan Shao are staring at money. Their father and son can''t stand the fact that there is too much money in the bank. They will certainly misappropriate the money in the bank. "


    "This is our chance!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "since the bank is established, it must have enough money at the bottom, and it must have a solid and reliable system to protect it. No one is allowed to misappropriate it at will. Otherwise, the bank will collapse in the end. "


    Lin Yong said: "remember your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words, Lin Yong in mind, and his heart also agreed. Once the bank opens a hole for misappropriation, you misappropriate a little today and I misappropriate a little tomorrow. At the end of the day, the bank is an empty shelf. It can''t last long.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go ahead, get ready for your identity, and then visit Guo Tu!"


    "Here it is


    Lin Yong should bow his hand.


    After Lin Yong and Wang Yue leave, Zhang Xiu sits alone in the room and deduces the next trend of the situation. What he has to do now is to sort out all the things a little bit, so that he can take action next.


    Ye City, in the palace.


    Yuan Shao was still obsessed with the pleasure of his bed. Within a short time after he became emperor, fifteen of the women in his harem were pregnant, and all of them were pregnant with Yuan Shao''s seed.


    On this day, while Yuan Shao was flirting with his concubines, Guo Tu came into the palace to see him.


    Yuan Shao is more interested in money.


    As soon as he heard the news that Guo Tu had come to see him, he immediately gave up the woman he was teasing and went straight to the hall to meet him. When he saw Guo Tu, he couldn''t wait to say, "Guo Qing, how are things going with Dajin bank?"


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. Next, we will wait for the opening in three days. To sum up, when the news of the establishment of our bank was released some time ago, many people still had doubts. Even among his Majesty''s many ministers, many doubted. But now, no one doubts it any more. "


    Yuan Shao said, "what''s the matter?"


    Although the sudden change was a good thing, Yuan Shao also asked.


    Guo tuchen reported: "since some time ago, people have been arranged to publicize the advantages of banks in Yecheng and even in Dajin. Of course, it also relies on Zhang Xiu''s reputation. "


    Yuan shaodao: "how to use it."


    Guo Tu replied: "in his humble position, the state of Qin, where Zhang Xiu is located, has established the Daqin bank, and the Daqin bank under Zhang Xiu''s command operates well. Everyone deposits his money in the bank and doesn''t worry about fire or theft at home."


    "After all, Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning, and the people also think that Zhang Xiu is cunning. Even what Zhang Xiu has done is believed by the people. So our Dajin bank has won the praise of countless people and turned the wind around. "


    "Especially today, there are countless people who praise Dajin bank."


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "I expect that after the news came out from all over the country, there began to be feedback."


    Guo Tu at the moment, still don''t know Zhang Xiu mixed a foot. In fact, the news he got was that Zhang Xiu arranged for Miao Yong to adjust. Because Miao Yong let the royal guards spread the news, the wind review changed.


    After everything changed, the news quickly came to Guo Tu''s ears, and then Guo Tu came to the palace to report the good news.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao praised and said: "although this matter is really with the help of Zhang Xiu. But it''s not impossible to rely on strength. As long as it''s good for us, there''s no problem. "


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    After a pause, Guo Tu continued: "there are still two things I want to ask your majesty about when I come here for my humble position."


    Yuan shaodao: "which two things?"


    Guo Tu replied, "Your Majesty, the first thing is that three days later, Dajin bank will open. Will your majesty come to cut the ribbon?"


    "Of course


    Yuan Shao didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    Guo Tu continued: "the second thing is that Zhang Xiu''s officials go to the bank except for the grain they distribute. Do we want to distribute the official''s money on behalf of Dajin bank? As long as the monthly salary is transferred to the bank, the salary can be paid on behalf of the bank. "


    "No need!"


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "when Zhang Xiu does things, we also do things, but we don''t have to be the same. Although Zhang Xiu has done so, there is no need for us to learn. What works, we use it. If it doesn''t work, we don''t have to pay attention to it. "


    Guo Tu said, "I will obey you in your humble duty."


    After Yuan Shaoying came down, Guo Tu continued: "however, during this period of time, I was always on guard against Zhang Xiu''s actions. But from the beginning to the end, there is no abnormality in Zhang Xiu. "Yuan Shao said: "after all, Zhang Xiu is far away from Chang''an. Where can we remote control the affairs of Yecheng. The most important thing is that although Zhang Xiu has established a bank, she may not be able to remotely control our bank. In particular, Zhang Xiu wants to deal with us, that is, the problem of cashing. However, such payment is impossible. "


    "What your majesty said is true," Guo Tu said


    Yuan shaoxun asked, "Guo Tu, is there anything else?"


    Guo Tu said: "I''m leaving!"


    Yuan Shao nodded, and Guo Tu got up and left.


    After Guo Tu left the Imperial City, he went straight back to his residence. Shortly after Guo Tu returned to his residence, an attendant came in and reported: "my Lord, a man named Lin Yong came from outside the residence. He said that he wanted to see him for something important."


    "Please


    Guo Tu gave an order.


    In recent days, he has been open to all who come to see him. Because he happened to need countless contacts, but also need countless people to support Dajin bank. Otherwise, in the end, he would not be able to support the bank.


    Soon, Lin Yong entered.


    When Lin Yong saw Guo Tu, his face was soft. He arched his hand and said, "I''m Lin Yong. I''d like to meet Mr. Guo."


    Guo Tu chin said: "why do you come here?"


    Lin Yong said: "I heard that Mr. Guo is already in charge of Dajin bank, as the president of Dajin bank. Today, I am going to have a good relationship with Lord Guo. "


    Guo Tu''s eyes narrowed and said, "what kind of good relationship are you going to have?"


    "Somebody


    Lin Yong said.


    With this order, a servant came in with a golden box in his hand. After Lin Yong took it, he put it on the table in front of Guo Tu, and said with a smile, "please have a look at it!"


    Guo Tu''s eyes brightened when he opened it.


    In the brocade box, are some gold, as well as some precious jade.


    It''s not much, but it''s also very valuable.


    Lin Yong said with a smile: "Mr. Guo, I''m the big shopkeeper behind the Yu shop. For a long time, I have arranged someone to be responsible for the operation of the surplus shops. But now, Dajin bank is about to be established, so I''m here to visit. "


    Yuyu shop, a grain merchant in Yecheng, specializes in selling grain.


    Behind the shop is Miao Yong.


    This is controlled by Miao Yong.


    Miao Yong gives Lin Yong the identity of a big shopkeeper behind a surplus shop. In this way, no one will doubt it. After all, more than shops in the territory of Yecheng, operating for several years.


    Only in this way can we win people''s trust.


    Guo Tu after hearing, slightly nodded, he is familiar with the situation of Yecheng, know more than shop. He covered the box of the brocade box and asked with a smile, "I don''t know if manager Lin is visiting today. What''s the matter?"


    His heart, also looking forward to good luck.


    As for the so-called good fortune, he hopes that Lin Yong can save money to Dajin bank. In this way, he can gain a firm foothold and win the trust of Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 889

    Lin Yong said: "Mr. Guo is planning to build Daqin bank. I have more than enough shops. When the bank opened three days later, I deposited 5000 taels of gold. On the one hand, I congratulated the bank on its opening. On the other hand, I congratulated Mr. Guo on becoming the president of Dajin bank."


    Guo Tu smiles when he hears it.


    Good! pretty good!


    This is 5000 taels of gold, not a small amount.


    The expression on Guo Tu''s face was more intimate and gentle. He said with a straight face: "I''ll write down the friendship of manager Lin. In the early days of the preparation for the establishment of Dajin bank, five thousand taels of gold was of great importance to our officials. "


    Lin Yong said with a smile: "Mr. Guo is joking. In my business, I always adhere to the principle of being convenient with myself and being convenient with others."


    Guo Tu nodded.


    As soon as his words changed, he said, "manager Lin has given me convenience. Let''s talk. What do you want?"


    If you are polite to others, you must ask for something.


    This is a truth that has not changed since ancient times.


    Guo TU was in a high position, so he didn''t beat around the Bush and asked directly.


    With a smile on his face, Lin Yong said, "there is one thing that I really want from Mr. Guo."


    "But it doesn''t hurt to say so," Guo said


    For Guo Tu, as long as it is beneficial to the bank and does not affect the overall situation, he is willing to help. But if it affects his position, or even Dajin bank, he can''t agree.


    This is fundamental!


    It''s also Guo Tu''s bottom line.


    Lin Yong said: "You Yu shops have accumulated some money by doing business in Yecheng these years. But it is impossible for the present money to expand in Yecheng, or even in the whole territory of Dajin. "


    "After all, financial resources are limited!"


    "At the same time, contacts are limited."


    "So this time, I hope that after the opening of Dajin bank, I can get a loan to buy more shops for us, and then expand in Yecheng and even Dajin."


    "In addition, I also hope to borrow Mr. Guo Tu''s contacts. I hope Mr. Guo Tu can say hello to me, give me a spare shop and provide some convenience, so as to avoid people from the government coming to find fault with me."


    Lin Yong made a request.


    As soon as his request came out, Guo Tu''s face became gloomy.


    Compared with the benefits Lin Yong gave, in fact, Lin Yong asked for too many benefits, not only loans, but also with the help of his contacts. This kind of interest exchange is not equal, so Guo Tu is not happy.


    Guo Tu said in a deep voice: "manager Lin, I''m afraid your conditions are more difficult. Our bank, Dajin, does provide loan business. As long as it is appropriate, I will not stop it. However, the other conditions are somewhat overstepped. "


    When Lin Yong heard this, he didn''t care.


    Guo Tu now refuses because his interests are not in place.


    Lin Yong said, "please don''t worry, Mr. Guo. Just listen to me. I have a lot of shops in Yecheng, and even after the expansion of the whole Jin Dynasty, I will give Mr. Guo 15% of the net profit in the future. For the operation of the surplus shops, we don''t need any money from Mr. Guo. We don''t need Mr. Guo to arrange people to manage them. We just need to wait for the monthly profit statistics to distribute the profits. "


    "I have spare shops, and I am determined to be bigger and stronger."


    "Mr. Guo has prestige and contacts. Not only that, he can also provide convenience for us in the bank."


    "Therefore, I have more than enough shops to cooperate with Mr. Guo."


    Lin Yong said: "I can guarantee that after the expansion of my spare shops, all the money I earn in the future will be deposited in Dajin bank. I heard that Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank has Daqin paper industry, Daqin coal industry and so on. I have more than one shop, and I am willing to be a pillar of Dajin bank and stand firmly in Dajin bank. "


    Guo TU was moved by the sound.


    Opportunity!


    It''s a chance to make money.


    First, he made money through this event; second, he won over a huge customer to the bank through this event; third, after the bank made achievements, he had the capital to stand in front of Yuan Shao.


    Even if he does a good job in banking, he can even take the place of the bank.


    It''s three carvings with one arrow.


    Such things, as long as Guo Tu is not a fool, can understand the two benefits. His cooperation with Lin Yong is beneficial but harmless. In fact, Guo Tu would not have believed Lin Yong so easily if he had not been a big shopkeeper behind the scenes of Yu shop.


    After all, I''m not familiar with it.


    But Youyu shop is not the most powerful grain merchant in Yecheng, but it has been operated for many years and is a time-honored shop. So when Guo Tu heard this, he didn''t doubt it. Even in his heart, he was thinking that only 15% of the profits were still a little less.


    He is not satisfied with this.


    Guo Tu said: "shopkeeper Lin, if you want to mobilize your contacts and materials, you have to open Dajin bank to give you loans. No matter what, it''s not easy to do. You can''t go to anyone but my own official for this matter. I''ve paid so much, but you''ve only given half a percent of the profits. It''s really a little less. "Lin Yong was delighted to hear that.


    It''s done.


    As long as Guo Tu starts to bargain, there will be no more problems.


    Lin yongnai thought, continued: "so, Mr. Guo, think how much profit is appropriate?"


    "Thirty percent!"


    Guo Tu stretched out three fingers and said, "I want 30% of the net profit."


    "Ah


    Lin Yong pretended to be surprised.


    Shaking his head, he solemnly said: "as a minister of the stock arm that your majesty relies on, Lord Guo should know that the profit of selling grain is not particularly high. Only when the government cooperates with us to sell us the annual grain at a low price, and then we sell it, can we make a higher profit. "


    "Now, it''s hard."


    "After all, there are more than shops, and there are no contacts, so we can''t expand."


    "Under such a premise, our profit is not high. After all, to run a shop, the first is to employ a lot of people, the second is to overstock food, and the third is that we have to support so many people ourselves. "


    With a helpless look, Lin Yong said, "Mr. Guo, there are more than enough shops to support so many people. After I cut out the cost, I give you another 30% of the profit. The profit I get is not even 1.5%. Mr. Guo, please be considerate of me. "


    After hearing this, Guo Tu thought in his heart.


    There is a certain truth in what Lin Yong said. After all, the profit of grain sales can not be particularly high. However, when he mentioned 30% of the profits, he just said it.


    Without waiting for Guo Tu to speak, Lin Yong continued: "Mr. Guo, how about the 20% profit. In this way, Mr. Guo can make money, and so can I. Although I have a lower proportion of profits than I used to, in fact, after the expansion of the market, the scale of the surplus shops has expanded, and I have earned more money, which can make up for the lost money. "


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "well, the two achievements are 20%. This time, I agreed to shopkeeper Lin''s request. "


    After a pause, Guo Tu said, "where does manager Lin live?"


    Lin Yong did not hide, directly said where Zhang Xiu lived. Because today''s site is a temporary residence. And if Lin Yong says it openly, Guo TU will not doubt it.


    If Lin Yong is hiding, it makes people suspect.


    Guo Tu continued: "shopkeeper Lin, since we have a cooperative relationship. I hope we can cooperate happily. I hope you can make money and I will be promoted and rich. "


    Lin Yong said: "thank you, Mr. Guo. In my opinion, Mr. Guo is amiable, capable and courteous. He will surely prosper. To be an official and to do something is to be a man after all. If you do things in the way of Lord Guo, you will surely be promoted to a higher rank. "


    "Wrong praise, wrong praise."


    Guo TU was modest, but his face was full of smiles.


    He was also happy in his heart.


    Meeting Lin Yong today can be said to have accomplished a great event, which is extremely beneficial to him.


    After Lin Yong had settled the matter, he stopped talking and left.

 Chapter 890

    After he left his house, Lin Yong went straight back to his residence.


    When he came back to the backyard and saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed down and said, "Your Highness, I have already seen Guo Tu and reached an agreement with him. Guo Tu is a man who sees small profits but forgets big ones. He was attracted by the net profit of 20% after the expansion of his humble business. Unfortunately, he can''t wait for the expansion of the shop. This big Jin bank will soon collapse. Now Guo Tu is here. He has won it. "


    "Well done!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded her approval and her face was full of smiles. It is not difficult to deal with Dajin bank because of Miao''s strength and Lin Yong''s relationship with Guo Tu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "three days later, Dajin bank will open, and you will join us."


    "Here it is


    Lin Yong immediately responded.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue entered and reported: "Your Highness, Miao Yong asked to see you."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Wang Yue turns to inform him. After a while, Miao Yong enters the backyard, bows to Zhang Xiu and reports: "Your Highness, I have made a general inquiry about the structure of the bank. Besides Guo Tu, several vice presidents, as well as the persons in charge below, all inquired and recorded clearly. "


    With that, Miao Yong handed over the book.


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, she quickly scanned it and then said, "the vice president of Dajin bank, and the person in charge below. You arrange people to get in touch with each other, just like Lin Yong''s way of doing, with money to open the way, and do a good job with each other. Next, it is a large-scale short Dajin bank, making the bank''s money, continue to lend out. Besides, has Su Hong ever been here? "


    Miao Yong said: "return to your highness, people are coming."


    Zhang Xiu said, "let him in!"


    "Here it is


    Su Hong goes out with a notice.


    Today, Su Hong is the deputy of Miao Yong, as the deputy commander of Jin royal guards. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he knelt down on the ground and said, "I''m Su Hong. I''ll see you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Su Hong stood up, slightly lowered his head, but he could see Zhang Xiu. He is a good swordsman, and his martial arts are also excellent. Can see after Zhang Xiu, see Zhang Xiu figure is not burly, in the heart is very shocked.


    He got the news.


    When Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu fight, they can hurt Lv Bu seriously.


    Lu Bu is a strong general in the world.


    Even Lv Bu is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent, but Zhang Xiu is so handsome that he is not like a general at all.


    Zhang Xiu inquired, "how is your relationship with Yuan Shang?"


    Su Hong said: "the relationship between humble position and Yuan Shang is pretty good, because after entering the prince''s residence, the humble position is protected by Yuan Shang most of the time. Now I have time to return. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "next, you intentionally ask yuan Shang for help and say that you are going to do a small business in Yecheng. But in your hand, you don''t have much capital. Please say hello to the bank and let the people in the bank lend you money to open a shop. "


    Su Hong said: "I will obey you


    After a pause, Su Hong said: "Your Highness, is there only one such thing?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "that''s enough."


    Su Hong asked, "don''t you need to kill yuan Shang? Now I''m with Yuan Shang. It''s easy to kill him. It''s impossible for anyone to find out that it''s a lowly job. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "a living yuan Shang is more beneficial to the king. Such a fool as Yuan Shang can make trouble for Yuan Shao by staying at his side. This time, after Yuan Shang helps you with the loan, he will find that Dajin bank is profitable, and he will arrange for people to borrow money from Dajin bank. This is one of the means to deal with Dajin bank. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Su Hong a listen to, immediately understand come over.


    Once yuan Shang tasted the taste of loans and saw the innumerable money of Dajin bank, he would certainly not give up and would continue to grab money from the bank. In particular, Yuan Shang was the crown prince of the great Jin State. No one dared to stop him.


    Yuan Shang is like this, Yuan Shao is like this again.


    This is especially true of the officials of the Jin Dynasty.


    A group of people have been fighting against Dajin bank one after another. Under such a premise, Dajin bank can not survive.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Su Hong bowed down.


    After Su Hong retired, Miao Yong left with him.


    After they walked out of the yard, Su Hong said with emotion: "it''s a sign that people can''t judge their appearance! Your highness, can you see the slightest sign of serious injury to Lv Bu? It''s completely invisible. It''s terrible that your highness easily defeated Lv Bu. "


    Miao said with a light smile: "bullshit, your highness defeated Dian Wei, the first general under Cao Cao''s command in the early years. Your Highness''s martial arts are enough to dominate the world. What''s more, your Highness''s most powerful is not his martial arts, but his brain. Have you ever seen your highness beat the king of such a large territory when he is so young? ""It is!"


    Su Hong nodded solemnly.


    This thing is really so, Zhang Xiu''s most powerful is not martial arts, but the brain.


    Miao Yong mainly lives in his family, but Su Hong is not. So after a talk with Miao Yong, Su Hong leaves in a hurry and goes straight to the prince''s residence. Now, as the guard of Yuan Shang, he lives in the prince''s residence and takes care of Yuan Shang''s safety at any time.


    When he returned to the prince''s residence, it was very late. Su Hong took a rest and did not go to see yuan Shang overnight. In the evening, Yuan Shang was sure to hang out in the back palace of the prince''s mansion. It was impossible to see him.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    It''s very early in summer, and it''s so early in the morning. Su Hong also waited until the sun was three o''clock before he got up to see yuan Shang. When he arrived, yuan Shanggang got up and had breakfast.


    Su Hong bowed and said, "I''ve seen the prince in my humble position!"


    Yuan Shanghan said, "master Su came to see the prince early in the morning. What''s the matter?"


    Su Hong looks like he wants to talk but stops.


    Yuan Shang said: "but it doesn''t hurt to say so!"


    After hearing this, Su Hong no longer hesitated and solemnly said: "I heard about Dajin bank. I heard that Dajin bank can borrow money. I want to open a shop in the city to do some small business. Nowadays, if a large family wants to spend money and does not open up resources, they will have some difficulties and have a hard time. "


    When he spoke, Su Hong had bowed his head, slightly embarrassed and embarrassed.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yuan Shang heard this, he began to laugh.


    Immediately, Yuan Shang said: "master Su, this is just a small matter, no problem. Your request was accepted by the king. When Dajin bank is established, I will help you. "


    Such a thing was not difficult for yuan Shang. In particular, one hundred taels of gold is not even a drop in the bucket for the Bank of Shanxi, which is very small.


    "Thank you, your highness."


    After hearing this, Su Hong said: "Your Highness is very kind. I will never forget your humble position."


    Yuan Shang continued: "master Su has been with the prince all day to protect my safety and teach me swordsmanship. It''s also very hard. It''s a trifle, it''s nothing. "


    Su Hong said: "Your Highness is benevolent, but you dare not forget your humble position."


    "Is there anything else?" Yuan Shang asked


    "No more!"


    Su Hong shook his head and looked very grateful.


    Yuan Shang said: "step back!"


    "Here it is


    Su Hong turned and stepped down.


    When Su Hong came to the door, suddenly, Yuan Shang''s voice came from behind him: "master Su, wait a minute!"


    Su Hong turned to face yuan Shang.


    Yuan Shang zhengse said: "after the establishment of Dajin bank, I will say hello to Dajin bank in a few days. You go to the bank and directly lend 300 liang of gold to the prince. What do you think? "


    Su Hong hesitated a little before he spoke.


    Yuan Shang also saw Su Hong''s hesitation. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "don''t worry. I want you to transfer one hundred taels of gold to me. It''s not an occupation. It''s a temporary loan. I''ll make it up later. You don''t have to worry about it. You won''t suffer a loss. "


    Su Hong said: "I believe your highness in your humble position!"


    "Step back!"


    With a smile in his mouth, Yuan Shang waved Su Hong to step down. His so-called "make-up" is just talking about it. First, use it and then talk about the follow-up.


    When Su Hong turned to leave, he began to smile.


    Yuan Shang is in the trap!


    Su Hong had heard Zhang Xiu''s plan before and knew that it was to deal with Yuan Shang. Now yuan Shang not only agrees to help him, but also takes private money. It''s obvious that Zhang Xiu''s plan has come true.

 Chapter 891

    Three days is fleeting.


    These three days are enough time for Zhang Xiu to let Miao use her royal guards to keep in touch with many officials of the bank. Especially in the case of money, this kind of relationship is almost hopeless and disadvantageous, and there is no failure.


    On this day, early in the morning.


    Yuan Shao got up early and finished washing. After breakfast, he wore a crown and robe, with a solemn look. For Yuan Shao, it was a rare time for him to get up early and not indulge in the mutton like white jade.


    Early in the morning, Guo Tu had come to the palace to meet him.


    Guo Tu is also a happy person today. He is in a good mood when he meets Yuan Shao. He solemnly salutes and says, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. Please move your majesty."


    "Let''s go!"


    Yuan Shao gave the order.


    With Yuan Shao''s order, Guo Tu, Ju Shi and other important officials of the imperial court followed Yuan Shao to the address chosen by Dajin bank. The place where Dajin bank was set up was not far from the Imperial City, and it took only a little more than two quarters of an hour to walk.


    When Yuan Shao arrived, there were countless people around him.


    At a glance, there is no end.


    I only see the people moving.


    When Yuan Shao saw so many people, his face was full of smiles.


    How nice people are!


    These people are here to give money.


    Under the soldiers'' guidance, Yuan Shao and his party soon came to the gate of Dajin bank. Yuan Shao stepped down from the carriage and stood here. Yuan Shang, Ju Shi, Guo Tu, Shen Pei, and a group of civil servants and military generals under Yuan Shao were all in place.


    They all stood behind Yuan Shao.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao was high spirited. He raised his hand and pressed down, signaling that the surroundings would be quiet. One after another, the discussion gradually subsided, and everyone''s eyes fell on Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao coughed softly and said, "folks, I am Yuan Shao. Today is my opening day. I believe many of you have already had a good understanding of Dajin bank. "


    "Before that, in the territory of Qin state, Zhang Xiu established Daqin bank to benefit the people."


    "Let the people save money to get interest."


    "At the same time, it also gives countless people who are in business difficulties an opportunity to borrow money."


    "Dajin is no less than Daqin, so now I''m in Yecheng, and I also set up Dajin bank. Yuan Shao is not inferior to Zhang Xiu, and Da Jin is not inferior to the state of Qin. "


    "Please believe that Dajin bank has sufficient financial resources and there is no possibility of problems. Because the gold mines in Dajin have been continuously transporting gold to Dajin bank to maintain its operation. "


    Yuan Shao said: "what Zhang Xiu can do, we can do as well. What Zhang Xiu can do is the same as what we can do in Dajin. We won''t even lose to the state of Daqin. "


    Long live your majesty


    In the crowd, suddenly someone began to shout.


    Long live your majesty


    Some people agree.


    Long live your majesty


    Long live your majesty


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, more and more people are cheering for Yuan Shao. As a matter of fact, one of these people is from the royal guards, who is dedicated to Yuan Shao and wants to hold him up.


    Zhang Xiu did it on purpose.


    Yuan Shao should have a good impression that his Dajin bank has achieved complete success and unprecedented achievements. Only in this way can Yuan Shao be complacent and happy. After waiting for Yuan Shao to be happy for a while, he suddenly found that his Dajin bank was like the collapse of a building. That was what Zhang Xiu was looking forward to most.


    Originally, the common people were followers.


    When countless people shout, more and more people shout, so the voice is like a mountain roaring and the sea roaring.


    The momentum is enormous.


    Yuan Shao looks in his eyes and listens in his ears. He is happy in his heart. After he waited for a long time, the people around him were quiet. Yuan Shaocai continued: "please believe that my great Jin will be better and better. I''m sure that Dajin bank will surpass Daqin bank. "


    The people echoed the cry.


    Many people heard someone shouting, and they unconsciously followed.


    They''re all blind followers.


    After Yuan Shao said something, he gave the home court to Guo Tu. In front of all the people, Guo Tu has considered the current deposit interest rate as well as various aspects of the interest rate.


    Guo Tu explained the policies before asking Yuan Shao to uncover the red silk on the plaque of Dajin bank, revealing the four characters of "Dajin bank" mentioned by Yuan Shao.


    After the opening of Dajin bank, countless people flocked in.


    In particular, a lot of large sums of money were deposited, and countless people poured in to follow.


    For a time, Dajin bank was very busy.


    For three days in a row, there were countless people coming to deposit their money in the bank. Such scenes happen constantly. When the results of daily statistics are reported to Guo Tu, Guo Tu is very happy.Today''s Dajin bank is full of copper money and gold.


    There is already a lot of money.


    Half a month later, the operation of the whole Dajin bank was quite good. At this time, Lin Yong came to Guo Tu''s office. When he saw Guo Tu, he said, "Congratulations, Mr. Guo!"


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "manager Lin, you are welcome. I want to see you, too. When it opened, you came to support it. But I was too busy to receive you in person. "


    As a matter of fact, he had a little spare time these days and had wanted to make an appointment with Lin Yong for a long time. But he is an official and always has to hold the airs of being an official, so he never went to see Lin Yong.


    Now, Lin Yong finally came.


    When it comes to money, Guo Tu is also quite anxious.


    Lin Yong said: "I''m not doing it properly. I should come to see you earlier. But the reason why he''s here now is because he''s busy with government affairs, so he''s been waiting for a long time. "


    Guo Tu said: "it''s not too busy. After all, the main things are done by the people below."


    Lin Yongdao: "it''s not easy for Mr. Guo to co-ordinate everything."


    Guo Tu said: "it''s wrong to praise, it''s wrong to praise."


    Lin Yong said: "Mr. Guo, this time I''m here to borrow 8000 taels of gold. There are 8000 taels of gold, so I can lay out my plans in Yecheng and even in the whole county. As soon as the situation stabilizes, I''ll start expanding across the state. "


    Guo Tu frowned and said, "does a county need so much money?"


    Eight thousand taels of gold is not a small amount.


    Lin Yong explained: "my Lord, you are not in business, so you don''t know about business. Lin Yong said confidently: "please rest assured, Mr. Guo, it will take three months at most. In three months, I''ll build all the granaries, decorate all the shops, and then open the door to do business. "


    "Get busy!"


    Guo Tu waved his hand and said nothing more.


    Lin Yong took the treaty in his hand, turned to leave, and went to find someone to handle it. In fact, he just ran for half an hour or so and took 8000 taels of gold from the warehouse of Dajin bank.


    This is not a small number!


    Although compared with the deposit capital of Dajin bank, it is very small, but this sum of money, for today''s Lin Yong, is to earn a huge amount.

 Chapter 892

    Guo Tu sat in the office office office, smiling and full of joy.


    His financial resources are stable.


    At this time, another attendant came in and reported: "Mr. Guo, Vice President Gao asked to see you."


    Vice President Gao, named Gao Shen.


    This man and Gao Gan are of the same race. He was appointed by Yuan Shao as one of the vice presidents of Dajin bank.


    Guo Tu said, "please come in!"


    "Here it is


    When the servant got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    After a while, Gao Shen entered.


    Gao Shen is nearly 40 years old and tall. He has a long beard under his jaw, which looks like a big beard. In Dajin bank, Gao Shen was also called "tall beard".


    Gao Shen bowed and said, "I''ve met you."


    Guo Tu said: "my brother came to me, but what''s the matter?"


    Gao Shen said solemnly, "Mr. Guo, someone just came to borrow 300 liang of gold with his Royal Highness''s warrant. What do you think we should do with the three hundred taels of gold? "


    Guo Tu narrowed his eyes and said, "you are one of the vice presidents of Dajin bank. Such a sum of money, money is not much, you have the right to approve. You are fully capable of making direct decisions. Why do you want to ask me? "


    Gao Shen sighed: "my Lord, after all, the other party is not a businessman, and has never taken any pledge deeds. It''s not easy to borrow three hundred taels of gold empty handed. "


    "No harm, just lend it to him."


    Guo Tu said: "if you don''t lend it to him now, you will offend your highness. Even if this man comes with his Royal Highness''s handwriting, does his royal highness need money? "


    After a pause, Guo Tu said, "we have a lot of money in Dajin bank. Without these three hundred taels of gold, it doesn''t matter. Can offend the prince, the prince''s highness remember, you can bear the prince''s anger? Anyway, I can''t afford it. "


    Gao Shen said: "well, I will lend money to his Highness the prince."


    Guo Tu said: "go


    "Here it is


    After Gao Shen left, Guo Tu shook his head and looked down upon him. He wanted to please yuan Shang, but he didn''t dare to take responsibility. There was no such easy thing in the world.


    On this day, Guo Tu received many people who came to lend money.


    There are some of his relatives.


    There are also some of his old ways.


    Even some of the officials in the great Jin Dynasty were constantly loaning money. When it comes to these people''s loans, Guo TU was not easy to block, and finally chose to agree.


    In addition, several other vice presidents headed by Gao Shen also approved numerous loans.


    Even those who go further down are the same.


    Keep lending.


    It took four or five days to slow down. At the end of June, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Guo Tu''s main time is still in the bank.


    When he was in his office, a servant from the palace came in. When he saw Guo Tu, he said, "I''ve met Mr. Guo."


    Guo Tu said, "what do you want from your majesty?"


    The servant replied, "Your Majesty''s expenditure is not enough. So I hope Lord Guo can move 1000 taels of gold into the palace, so that his majesty can have enough money in the palace. "


    Brush!


    Guo Tu''s face changed slightly.


    This blatant misappropriation, or even not taking public accounts, is worse than yuan Shang''s behavior.


    There is a saying that Yuan Shang arranged someone to send the warrant. Even if it is necessary to audit the accounts, Guo Tu also has an explanation. But now when he came to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao had no principle, so he just threw an edict and asked him to embezzle one thousand taels of gold.


    This is a thousand taels of gold.


    It''s not a small number.


    To be sure, compared with the deposits in Dajin bank, it is a drop in the bucket. But in case of tracing down, Yuan Shao will be able to clean up at that time, and he will have to carry the pot.


    So Guo Tu''s heart was conflicted, but when he looked at the servant in front of him, especially when he saw his determined appearance, he sighed. In the present situation, he has no choice but to promise.


    Guo Tu said, "let''s go, I''ll take you!"


    "Thank you, Mr. Guo!"


    On hearing this, the waiter burst into laughter.


    Guo Tu himself took people to the storehouse, took a thousand taels of gold, and then pressed it into the imperial city.


    At this time, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang took Dajin bank as a money bag and took money directly from the money bag, forgetting that it was not their money, but the money deposited by countless people.


    As a result, the whole Dajin bank in a short period of time, began to appear large-scale deficit.


    The money deposited is far less than the money lent.


    Even Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang''s father and son continued to misappropriate money from the bank, and even the officials of the central government continued to borrow money, which completely formed a trend. They were all cheating on the White Wolf empty handed.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu lived.Today, the weather is hot, but fortunately the yard is quite cool, there are winter ice sent to relieve the heat, so it is not too hot.


    Wang Yue, Lin Yong and Miao Yong came together.


    After the three met Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue took the lead in saying, "Your Highness, since this period of time, the money from Dajin bank has been sent to Yuan Shao''s palace. Every once in a while, they have money to send. In addition, it''s the same with Yuan Shang. From time to time, some people go there with money. "


    "Yuan Miao''s total of ten thousand gold is not enough for a period of time. Now yuan Shang has made a lot of money. "


    Lin Yong then said: "I used the surplus shops, in addition to the earliest eight thousand taels of gold, and then took a lot of money from small loans. In a word, I''ve made money from my spare shop. "


    Wang Yue continued: "during this period, in addition to Lord Lin''s loans, there were other merchants who arranged loans and also lent tens of thousands of taels of gold."


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said: "this means that in the current situation, we have the conditions to detonate the lack of money in Dajin bank, right?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue, Lin Yong and Miao answered with Qi.


    All three nodded solemnly.


    For them, they have paid so much and planned for such a long time. Now it''s time to harvest.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "then arrange to detonate the news. I want to see if Yuan Shao suddenly knows that Dajin bank is in deficit, and countless people flock to it. When he exchanges money, he can resist it. "


    Lin Yong said solemnly: "Yuan Shao will be defeated!"


    He is full of confidence in Zhang Xiu''s plan. Through this event, he also learned that from the very beginning, Daqin bank formulated detailed regulations, and even prohibited officials from trusting relationships to follow the order of relationships.


    Only in this way can it be standardized.


    Otherwise, all the officials will go to the bank for a visit, and Daqin bank will not be able to handle it.


    After Wang Yue and Miao Yong left together, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Lin Yong and solemnly said, "Lin Yong, you participated in this operation. You should know that the bank is a double-edged sword. Banks can indeed raise countless funds, but in fact, once mismanaged, it will shake the country. Yuan Shao must have been in a mess this time. "


    Lin Yong solemnly said, "I understand your humble position."


    He knew it in his heart.


    Especially when he saw this behind the scenes, he felt more awed. He also knew that banks should absolutely put an end to self-interest and never use power for personal gain. Otherwise, banks would definitely be in turmoil and even affect the country.

 Chapter 893

    Yecheng, west of the city.


    Here is a slightly remote place, the whole Ye City of three teachings and nine streams, all gathered here.


    Although the geographical location is slightly biased, there are numerous wine shops. However, the drinks in these places are not as good as those in inns, but they are enough for ordinary people.


    Near noon, in a wine shop.


    One by one dressed in coarse linen, ordinary clothes, and even many rough looking people with rough hands are eating and drinking in the wine shop. They are tired for a long time. At noon, they feel comfortable after drinking. If you don''t drink, your stomach is out of stock. Drink some wine and eat some meat. It''s a good day that can''t be exchanged by immortals.


    In the remote corner, the two men, dressed in shabby clothes, were eating and chatting, which seemed quite relaxed.


    Both of them are royal guards.


    One was Lu Jia, the other Liu Wu. They were dressed in ordinary clothes and were not conspicuous in the crowd.


    Lu Jia glanced around, drew back his eyes, sipped a sip of wine, and then said, "well, all the money I''ve made recently has been deposited in Dajin bank. At the end of the year, there will be a lot of interest. The interest in our Dajin bank is higher than that in the state of Qin. "


    "Why don''t you bang it, hum, you''re done!"


    Liu Wuyi looked contemptuous and said, "I don''t believe in this. I don''t believe in either Daqin bank or Dajin bank. It''s better to keep the money in my pocket."


    "As for Daqin bank, I haven''t heard any bad news for the time being. After all, it''s too far away."


    "But Dajin bank, it''s over."


    "I''ve heard that the emperor Yuan Shao, the prince yuan Shang, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are constantly making money to satisfy their own selfish desires."


    "This bank has become their money bag."


    Liu Wu said, "how long can the bank last under such circumstances? The money you deposit is to help a group of people in the court eat and dress well. In the end, you may not be able to withdraw the money. "


    Lu Jia frowned and said, "no way!"


    "What won''t?"


    Liu Wu snorted and continued: "the emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are powerful. Who dares to ask for the loan of Dajin bank? How much can I get back after the money is released? It''s going to be a disaster


    When speaking, the surrounding people look at each other.


    Some even asked directly.


    Under this premise, Liu Wu explained the whole story and said that his seven aunts and eight aunts knew someone, so he knew the news. In addition, some people agreed that there were some relatives in the Dajin bank, and that there were countless official loans.


    The news is real.


    Countless people who saved money were all in a panic.


    This kind of news, not only in the west of Ye City, but also around the whole Ye City, even in the whole territory of Jizhou, has happened.


    For a moment, the crowd was furious. Countless people, holding the cash, quickly came to the gate of Dajin bank and lined up to cash money with the cash in their hands.


    The situation is extremely fierce.


    The staff of Dajin bank can''t solve the problem at all. They can only report to Guo Tu quickly while cashing. Guo TU was confused when the report came to Guo Tu''s hands.


    What''s going on?


    Why, all of a sudden, so many people have sprung up to exchange money.


    However, Guo TU was calm and didn''t panic. He said with a straight face: "the people have to deal with it, even if they cash it out. Anyway, we still have enough money in our treasury. We are not afraid of their exchange. "


    Gao Shen sat at the bottom and solemnly said, "I''m afraid it''s not enough, Mr. Guo. As usual, there is no problem. The key point is that I went out for a tour and heard a lot of people talking about it. "


    Guo Tu said, "what are you talking about?"


    Gao Shen said: "people say that your majesty and the prince take too much money from the bank. Therefore, the people of Jin came to pay. So that more and more people gather. "


    "In the present case, unless payment is stopped immediately. Otherwise, it will continue. Even if there is Jinshan Bank''s deposit in Dajin bank, there are too many people, it will certainly not be enough. "


    "Especially during this period of time, we have made countless loans and released countless money. As a result, the amount of money deposited in the Treasury has been greatly reduced. Even if there is still a lot of money, but now the situation is different, there are too many people to cash it. "


    "It''s impossible to cope on a large scale," Gao Shen said


    Brush!


    Guo Tu''s face changed greatly.


    He did not expect that this was the case. As a matter of fact, after Guo Tu''s quick thinking, the money released from him alone is innumerable, with a large amount of money.


    Not to mention the rest of the vice presidents, as well as the people below, released too much money. As a result, the anti risk ability of the whole Dajin bank is too low to support.What should I do?


    What should I do?


    Guo Tu''s heart, constantly thinking, began to panic. After pondering for a while, he said in a deep voice: "pass the order down and let all the clerks below slow down the exchange rate. It''s not that they don''t exchange, it''s just that they slow down


    "Here it is


    When Gao Shen and others heard the speech, they all responded.


    The expression on each face showed admiration.


    Ginger is still old and spicy!


    When they have nothing to do, Guo Tu can get enough time with a word.


    Guo Tu ordered: "you stay in the bank and are responsible for stabilizing the situation. In a word, there is no problem for the people to exchange money. But it can''t speed up, it can only slow down. Then, don''t leak the slightest bit of information. In the current situation, we can''t mess with ourselves first. "


    The crowd nodded again.


    Guo Tu did not dare to delay, quickly left the back door of Jin bank and went straight to the imperial city. After entering the Imperial City, he went straight into the palace and asked the servant to inform him, but he got news from the servant that Yuan Shao had gone to the palace and would not come out to meet the officials for the time being.


    Guo TU was angry and slapped up.


    "Pa!"


    A loud slap in the face.


    The waiter was directly confused.


    The waiter didn''t expect that Guo Tu would hit people directly, which was impossible. But now, it has happened.


    Guo Tu''s face was ferocious, and he bit his teeth and said, "go, report immediately. Even if your majesty is in Dunlun, report it to me. If you don''t go, I will kill you immediately. "


    Brush!


    The waiter was stunned.


    He had never seen such a figure. The servant didn''t dare to delay. He turned and left quickly, and went back to the palace. But the look on the servant''s face was full of resentment and anger.


    He was a man with a head and a face in the palace. Unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face by Guo Tu, so that he had five finger prints. When it comes out, he''ll have to be a laughing stock.


    Not long after, the servant came to the harem. He quickly entered the report, but at this time Yuan Shao was enjoying the song and dance. He entered and came to Yuan Shao''s side, turned his beaten face to Yuan Shao, and said, "Your Majesty, Guo Tu, Lord Guo, please see me."


    Yuan Shao chin said: "what''s the matter with your face?"


    The servant said, "please tell your majesty, Mr. Guo Tu. He asked to see his majesty. The servant said that his Majesty would not see any guests for the time being. When he got down at leisure, he would receive the officials. Unexpectedly, Guo Tu''s face was ferocious. He slapped him and made me dizzy. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yuan Shao was very angry.


    He got up and went out. As he walked, he said, "I''d like to see what Guo Tu is going to do. What on earth has happened to him that he dares to hit others without authorization. "


    When the waiter heard this, he began to smile.


    Now Yuan Shao is in a rage. When Yuan Shao sees Guo Tu, it must be Guo Tu who can''t afford to go. This time, however, Guo Tu took his own shame. The servant did not speak, but followed Yuan Shao closely with small steps.

 Chapter 894

    Guo Tu, Ju Shi and the judge went out of the palace hall. Ju Shi looked at Guo Tu and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Guo, you are too careless about the bank business. Your majesty wants to embezzle money, and the prince wants to embezzle money. He should have refused at that time. "


    After a pause, Ju Shu said, "especially the officials in the court, if they want to grab money one by one, they should not agree. If you stick to it, Dajin bank will not be in turmoil. Now, it''s a mess. "


    Guo Tu said: "Mr. Ju, you don''t feel lumbago when you stand and speak. If you are in my position, can you refuse your majesty and the prince? Can you refuse the princes of Manchuria? It''s like, against everyone. Everyone knows that the president of Dajin bank is a fat man, but who knows the risk of being the president of Dajin bank? "


    The judge said: "no matter what, we should take a warning and never do it again. Otherwise, it can happen once or twice. "


    Guo Tu said: "after this matter, I will make a statement to your majesty. Please judge. When the time comes, please help me. "


    "It''s what it should be," he said


    The judge said, "that''s what you should do!"


    Suddenly, he asked, "Mr. Guo, have you ever arranged for someone to guard the bank to maintain order?"


    Guo Tu thought about it and replied, "there are a few soldiers guarding the situation. All the time, the only maintenance that banks need is them. I don''t think there will be any problems with these soldiers. "


    "No!"


    He looked alarmed and said, "the bank is short of manpower. There must be something wrong. Since it may be Zhang Xiu''s people or other princes who spread rumors and incite the people, it is impossible to just spread news. If I were to plan this, I would arrange for people to create unrest in the next step. Once countless people rush into the bank, even if they want to remedy it, it''s too late. "


    Brush!


    Guo Tu''s face suddenly changed.


    At this moment, Guo Tu''s heart sank to the bottom. Although he left Gao Shen and others behind and arranged for some soldiers to stay, in fact, the troops of Dajin bank were not many.


    After all, this is Yecheng, at the foot of the emperor, who dares to mess?


    I''m tired of living?


    Now, it''s not the same.


    Guo Tu got flustered and said: "Mr. Ju, please go to dispatch troops immediately and rush to Dajin bank with the army. I''ll go back immediately and try to stabilize the situation first. As for the allocation of money, let''s leave it alone for the time being. Let''s first stabilize the situation. "


    With that, Guo Tu left in a panic.


    The judge looked at Guo Tu''s back and said, "I hope it''s too late."


    Ju said: "at the beginning, your majesty wanted to set up Dajin bank, so I spoke against it and didn''t agree with it. But your majesty is so determined that he has today. Now your majesty, alas... "


    At this point, I shake my head.


    Before he became emperor, Yuan Shao was headstrong and arrogant, but he was diligent in government affairs and did not neglect government affairs. But now Yuan Shao stays in the harem all day, almost ignoring government affairs.


    Yuan Shao has changed a lot.


    Judge match way: "Ju adult, say a few less! Now, we still need to do more practical work and do more things. In particular, we must seize the time when we deploy troops to stabilize the banks. "


    "I''m going now!"


    He shook his head and turned to arrange.


    With worry in mind, the judge returned to his office and continued to deal with his affairs.


    In Zhang Xiu''s house.


    He was hiding in his room to cool off. It was still hot in June and July. Zhang Xiu hid in the room, and there was ice to dissipate heat, which was pretty good. He looked at the books in his hand and enjoyed himself.


    For Zhang Xiu, the situation in Shanxi is coming to an end.


    In this war, Dajin bank will be defeated.


    "Step on it! Step on


    The rapid footsteps came from outside the room.


    Immediately after that, Wang Yue and Miao Yong entered together. After they saluted, Miao Yong said, "Your Highness, the bank has sent back a message that Dajin bank is cashing. However, our people have observed that the staff of Dajin bank have reduced the exchange rate and increased many exchange procedures, making the exchange rate extremely slow."


    "It''s a delaying tactic!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed with light, and said: "the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind does not stop. Guo Tu wants to ease the situation by reducing the speed of cashing. But we can''t let him


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu flatly ordered: "if Yuan Shao fully mobilizes his financial resources to pay, even if there is a deficit, he can make up for it. You order now, order the royal guards on the scene to start, incite chaos, and urge the people to rush into the bank and rob money wantonly. At the end of the day, set fire to it. "


    His voice was cold.


    This is war!


    Although there is no battle between the two armies, and there is no contest between the two armies, in fact, this is no less tragic than the battle on the battlefield. This is a battle without gunpowder."Here it is


    The seedlings should be used immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue again and said, "Yuan Shao is very likely to arrange people to send troops to suppress the situation in order to stabilize the situation. You arrange for the royal guards to observe around. Once there is a big army killing, let it know earlier so that our people can retreat and create the final chaos and disturb the situation. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    After Wang Yue turned and left, Zhang Xiu had a smile on her face, books on the desk, and a smile on the corner of her mouth.


    It''s a big deal!


    This time, Yuan Shao was completely defeated.


    Yuan Shao wanted to learn from him to set up Dajin bank, but Yuan Shao didn''t have the corresponding system and regulations, nor was he constrained by the inspector''s court, nor was there such an institution as the royal guards to check and balance. In particular, Yuan Shao himself and the crown prince yuan Shang all embezzled money in person, which broke the rules.


    In this kind of environment, if Dajin bank can maintain, there will be ghosts.


    From the beginning, it was decided that Yuan Shao would be defeated!


    There is no suspense.


    Miao Yong quickly returned to the cashing crowd. He looked at the crowded people in the queue, and a smile rose from the corner of his mouth. If there are too many people, it''s easy to stir up trouble.


    Today''s Dajin bank is crowded with people. A few soldiers, with knives in their hands, are maintaining order. After all, the common people are afraid, so when they see these soldiers carrying knives, they all dare not go forward. They all bite their teeth and endure. They are looking forward to their turn to take out their money.


    The seedlings are constantly pushed forward.


    He approached the gate of Dajin bank, looked at the soldiers not far away from him, and roared: "since cashing, Dajin bank has been delaying the speed of cashing. It only takes a while to cash. Now in a quarter of an hour, both of them can''t cash it. Dajin bank is deliberately delaying time. They have no money. "


    "Go


    "If you don''t, there will be no money."


    Miao shouts and rushes out. He didn''t carry a long sword. He quickly took out a short dagger in his hand and rushed to a soldier in the twinkling of an eye. The dagger was delivered directly.


    "Puchi!"


    A sharp dagger penetrates the soldier''s heart.


    After the dagger was drawn out, the blood spattered, and the soldier snorted. Before he could exert any force on his hand, he was pushed by Miao and fell to the ground.


    "Go


    The rest of the royal guards rushed out one after another.


    One by one, the royal guards rushed out and killed the soldiers quickly.


    The people who had been waiting in line were very anxious. Because of the awe of the soldiers, they did not dare to move forward. But now Miao Yong has killed the soldiers. After killing the soldiers, the people are like runaway wild horses. As soon as they are released, they are all crowding into the Dajin bank and rushing inside quickly.


    "Rush, Dajin bank has no money."


    "Get our own money back. If you don''t snatch, there''s no money. "


    "Go


    One after another, people were shouting, and countless people rushed inside. Under such circumstances, the situation immediately went out of control and could no longer be controlled.


    Dajin bank, completely collapsed.

 Chapter 895

    Gao Shen and other vice presidents are sitting in the bank. No matter Gao Shen or the rest of the people, they are all in a state of anxiety and panic. Because with more and more people cashing, the money of Dajin bank is rapidly decreasing.


    At this speed, it will be completely empty in three hours at most. Because even if we procrastinate, we can''t procrastinate indefinitely. We can''t control the situation.


    When the time comes, you can''t cash it.


    It''s a terrible thing.


    The rest of the officials were very nervous, waiting for Guo Tu to bring back the good news. But Rao is so, the current situation, is still not optimistic, a very worried.


    Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and countless people rushed inside.


    Even though there are a few soldiers in Dajin bank to maintain order, but the angry people, desperate to start charging, that few soldiers, simply can not bear.


    In a moment, all the soldiers were knocked over.


    Countless people, directly over the counter, directly rushed in.


    In this era, there is no protective glass. Such a counter stands in the hall, and people can easily read it. Then these people have turned into mobs, reckless robbery, reckless robbery.


    This is true of all the people.


    No matter how much or how little money they save, they just grab it.


    The meek people become the mob.


    A gentle sheep becomes a lion tiger.


    Everybody''s going to grab it.


    Seeing this, Gao Shen roared at the other clerks, intending to stop them. But in front of the fierce people, anyone has to be counselled, and no one dares to step forward. The people keep rushing forward and getting closer to Gaoshen.


    Gao Shen and others are also flustered.


    Miao Yong''s task is not to snatch money. He doesn''t like the money. Miao Yong''s task is to disturb the situation and completely fluster everyone.


    Only when everyone is in a panic can we make a profit.


    Miao used to come to the bank again and again, and already knew Gao Shen. He saw Gao Shen and other vice presidents, as well as a group of officials. With a greeting, he rushed forward with the royal guards under his command.


    Before long, he killed Gao Shen and others.


    The light of a knife is shining.


    Then came the screams. One by one, officials are constantly being hacked and killed by the royal guards.


    Miao quickly approached Gao Shen. After approaching Gao Shen, he quickly stabbed out the dagger in his hand. As the dagger came out, it had penetrated into Gao Shen''s heart.


    One face to face, Gao Shen was killed.


    After Miao Yong killed Gao Shen, he took people with him and kept killing other bank officials. After solving these bank people, Gao Shen did not take anyone to rob and began to look for bank deposit and loan documents.


    It''s not a complicated thing.


    After finding all the deposit documents, Miao Yong asked people to set fire to them and burn them.


    Miao Yong believed that after these documents were burned, all the deposits in Dajin bank would become a muddle headed account and could not be recovered. Even the princes of Manchuria and Manchuria, who have vested interests, will help to speak. In the end, it will be nothing.


    After all, no matter the crown prince yuan Shang, or the other officials, they all borrowed a lot from Dajin bank. When these people see that the documents have been burned, they won''t admit it again.


    This is human nature.


    When countless people snatched, Guo Tu came in a hurry. However, when Guo Tu arrived, the situation inside and outside Dajin bank was already in chaos. Countless people kept pouring in and seizing, and the situation was completely out of control.


    Plop!


    As soon as Guo Tu''s legs softened, he collapsed on the ground.


    He''s completely flustered!


    Because Dajin bank is finished.


    Previously, outside the palace, he was asked about the guarding of the bank. In his heart, he was worried that he had already returned at the fastest speed. Rao was so slow.


    Guo Tu recovered a little after half a ring. He stood up with his hands on the ground, biting his teeth and staring at the countless people in Dajin bank, his eyes full of murderous intent.


    These bastards!


    These mobs!


    These people ruined everything.


    But when the situation came to this stage, Guo Tu didn''t even have the courage to approach. Guo Tu could only hide in the vicinity and wait for the arrival of Jushou''s troops. He could only hope that Jushou would arrive as soon as possible to calm the situation.


    In the west of Dajin bank, about seven or eight miles away, an army was coming quickly.


    The leader is the leader.


    he directly went to the army to deploy troops. Rao was so slow. Worried about the situation in the bank, Guo Tu has ordered his soldiers to drive quickly. However, when he walked two miles further, he encountered archers shooting on both sides of the street. There were not many archers on the other side, but he kept shooting to block their speed.


    If you change to normal, you must stop, surround and take everyone.But now, there is no way.


    He can''t stop.


    Even so, he was able to get on the road as quickly as possible and strive to arrive at Dajin bank as soon as possible. He took the soldiers forward, but the speed was also reduced.


    By the time we got through the area where the archers were ambushing, some more time had been wasted. The royal guards had already sent back the news when they were in a hurry.


    When Miao Yong got the news, he ordered the people under his command to retreat, and then roared: "the officers and soldiers are coming, and Yuan Shao''s army is coming. Retreat quickly. If you don''t run, it will be too late. "


    As soon as this word came out, countless people began to rush out. Many people are carrying countless money, or gold cake, or five baht money, while running, but also the side of the spilled money.


    People are completely crazy.


    All this has been ignored.


    Countless people withdraw from the area of the bank and run out like a tide.


    Miao Yong also took people to retreat, but when he retreated, he ignited the fire directly. The architectural structure of Dajin bank is originally made of wood. In addition, there are countless papers in Dajin bank. After these are ignited, the fire burns quickly.


    The fire was raging.


    "Run, run!"


    "Here come the officers and men!"


    "Get out, get out!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more people roared, and countless people rushed out of Dajin bank and fled around. As the people fled, the bank, which was originally full of people, was empty in a short time.


    When he arrived with the soldiers, there was a big fire in Dajin bank. Outside Dajin bank, on the broad street, you can see five baht money falling on the ground everywhere.


    The situation is chaotic.


    Guo Tu saw that he was paralyzed once. At this time, he saw Jushi again and collapsed on the ground. His words choked and he said, "it''s over, it''s all over."


    I look at it, but I understand it in my heart.


    There must be some people making trouble and robbing Dajin bank. Countless people fled and even set fire to it. Under this premise, Dajin bank completely collapsed. The grand bank of Shanxi collapsed completely without even a month''s time.


    "Come on, put out the fire immediately," he ordered


    Guo Tu shook his head and looked desolate. He said, "what are you going to do to put out the fire? This big Jin bank is burning down. Joke, what a joke! As the president of Dajin bank, Guo TU was busy, but in the end it turned out to be a mess. I''m the president of Dajin bank. I''m not to blame! "


    Ju said: "Mr. Guo, this is the end of the matter. It is meaningless to discuss these again. Now, put out the fire with all your strength! When the fire is put out, we will see if we can find some money. "


    Guo Tu collapsed on the ground, still motionless. At this point, he didn''t want to move.


    It''s over!


    It''s over!


    He looked at Guo Tu''s manner in his eyes and sighed in his heart. But he didn''t take care of it. He just arranged for the soldiers to put out the fire and deal with the next mess.

 Chapter 896

    Yuan Shao came to the front hall from the back palace. When he saw Guo Tu, he said, "Guo Tu, don''t you know the division and combination?"


    "I have told you clearly that when it comes to the big and small matters of the bank, you should make your own decision. Don''t ask for advice on everything, but have your own opinions. Anyway, you are the governor of Dajin bank appointed by me, and you are a senior official of Dajin bank. "


    Yuan Shao said, "don''t you even have this decision?"


    Compared with Yuan Shao''s abuse, Guo Tu didn''t care and said, "Your Majesty, the bank is over!"


    "What?"


    Yuan Shao exclaimed.


    At the thought of the end of the bank, Yuan Shao''s face was gloomy and said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guo Tu did not dare to hide it and quickly explained: "report to your majesty, there are too many people who embezzle the money of Dajin bank these days. Not only that, the banks themselves have lent a lot of money. "


    "Even if there is still quite a lot of money in the bank today, it can''t stand for countless people to exchange it. Now there is news in the city that your majesty and the prince have misappropriated money, so that Dajin bank is in deficit. "


    "Rumors are flying all over the city. After they spread in the city, countless people came to exchange them."


    "Outside Dajin bank, there are a lot of people queuing up. There are too many people to count. The rest of the bank''s money, which had been in normal operation, had no problem. But now, a swarm of people come to cash, there is not so much money


    Guo TU was almost crying and said, "the Bank of Shanxi is going to be unable to hold on."


    Boom!!


    There seemed to be thunder in Yuan Shao''s mind.


    In front of him was Venus.


    Yuan Shao, who had just entered the main hall and was still walking on, still didn''t stand still, only felt that his legs were soft and he fell to the ground. At this moment, Yuan Shao was also flustered. To tell you the truth, during this period, he did arrange a servant and embezzled a lot of money from the bank.


    Compared with the deposit of Dajin bank, that''s a drop in the bucket.


    The servant wanted to help Yuan Shao, but he was waved away by Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and got up quickly. When he got up and stood still, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "even if I misappropriated part of it, it''s not too much. As far as the prince is concerned, I have heard of it. But after the prince misappropriates it, it will not be impossible to cash it. "


    The money he and Yuan Shang misappropriated alone will not lead to the collapse of the bank.


    Kuo Tu sighed: "Your Majesty, not only do you and the prince participate, but all the princes of Manchu Dynasty come to borrow money one after another. In addition, the officials of the prince''s mansion are the same. Under such a premise, he has given away so much money that a lot of money has not been collected. "


    After a pause, Guo Tu said: "the humble position has been ordered to slow down the cashing speed of the clerks on the counter. Even they dare not say that they can''t cash it for fear of arousing people''s anger and making people angry. "


    Yuan Shao frowned and felt helpless.


    He thought about it and couldn''t come up with a solution. He said, "come and see me immediately."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    After NEISHI left, Yuan Shao''s legs trembled. He went back to the Dragon chair and sat down. His heart was beating, and he was very anxious.


    The current situation is too bad.


    Not long after, Guo Tu and Shen Pei entered the hall and bowed to Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "there''s no need to salute. Let''s get down to business. The bank encountered a wave of cashing, which was the way we ran on Zhang Xiu Daqin bank. Nowadays, Zhang Xiu''s people are also following the example of others to deal with us. At present, Dajin bank can''t support it. What can you do? "


    Ju said: "Your Majesty, Dajin bank is so good, how can it not support?"


    Yuan Shao explained: "because during this period of time, Dajin bank made numerous loans and lacked money, so that it could not support it. Ju Qing, the current situation is not the time to investigate the responsibility, but to discuss how to solve the current dilemma. If the bank collapses completely, we will certainly be affected, even the national capital. "


    When he hears the words, he sighs in his heart.


    He actually knows what happened these days. He knew that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang had embezzled a lot of money. Even he knew that all the princes of the Manchu Dynasty went to the Bank of Dajin under the banner of borrowing money and made a lot of money.


    This leads to a huge deficit.


    He didn''t take part in it, but he knew that there was a big mess in the current situation.


    The judge said solemnly, "Your Majesty, this has happened. The only way to solve this problem is to make up for the money and put the current trend of cashing through. If you don''t get through this, then it''s hard to do anything next. "


    After a pause, the judge continued: "I think that under the current circumstances, no matter the money in your Majesty''s Treasury, or the money in the prince''s Treasury, it will be immediately transported to Dajin bank. In addition, all the money from the State Treasury will be transferred to the country. No matter what, get through this first. "Yuan Shao''s face was suddenly embarrassed.


    It is more difficult to get money out of his private treasury than to kill him.


    This is what Yuan Shao does not want.


    Yuan Shao said: "now that we have reached this point, it''s difficult to transfer money. Simply, direct deployment of troops to suppress, it is said that this is Zhang Xiu spread rumors, there are countless people to cash. For the time being, the trend of cashing has been suppressed. "


    "No, your majesty!"


    If you listen, stop immediately.


    He looked up at Yuan Shao with a look of horror. Because he did not expect that Yuan Shao should come up with such a bad idea, which is to kill the people.


    People''s defense is better than Sichuan''s, which can''t be stopped. Once Yuan Shao did so, the Dajin bank would be completely destroyed, and even countless people would feel resentful.


    Jushi gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I agree with your proposal. We can''t suppress it by force, we can only alleviate it. I sincerely ask your majesty to allocate money to help the bank. It has to be fast, it has to fill quickly. There has always been a surplus in the finance of our country. At present, we should first flush all the remaining money into Dajin bank to stabilize the situation. "


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty''s permission!"


    For Guo Tu, this is the only way and the only way to survive. If Yuan Shao doesn''t care and Dajin doesn''t care, then Dajin bank will collapse completely and he will be finished completely.


    In the current situation, this is the only option.


    Guo Tu said: "Your Majesty, since Dajin bank has been established, it can''t be removed. Otherwise, it will only make Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao laugh at each other. Your majesty will learn from them. "


    When Yuan Shao heard the speech, his face changed again and again.


    To take money out of his private Treasury would cost his life and make his finance empty. The problem is that if we do not provide relief to Dajin bank, the money of Dajin bank will not last long and will collapse in the end.


    "Well, I agree."


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and answered directly.


    No matter what happened, yuan Shaojin would have no choice.


    "Your majesty


    Guo TU was relieved and said Yuan Shao Shengming. At this moment, Kuo Tu knew that the problem of Dajin bank had at least a way to alleviate it. He was no longer waiting to die.


    "Your majesty


    Give and judge, answer together.


    Yuan Shao turned his eyes and said coldly, "this time, Yuan Shang''s evil also participated. "I have ordered yuan Shang to allocate all the money from his prince''s mansion to the Bank of Dajin, so as to stabilize the turbulent situation."


    "Here it is


    Guo Tu responded again.


    Guo Tu expected the money of the prince''s mansion. Because during this period of time, the prince''s house came to earn a lot of money, and the whole Prince''s house made a lot of money. It''s time for the prince to spit out all the money.


    Yuan Shao sat down dispirited and waved his hand with a wilting look.


    Guo Tu, Ju Shi and Shen Pei retired together.

 Chapter 897

    Zhang Xiu''s house.


    As soon as Miao Yong came back, he immediately reported the situation of Dajin bank to Zhang Xiu. He looked excited in his eyes and said, "Your Highness, you don''t know that the scene of Dajin bank cashing is extremely chaotic."


    "Countless people are scrambling for money. No one has any mercy. All the simple people turned into mobs, and there was a complete chaos at the scene. "


    "No one came out to stop it, on the contrary, they were afraid that they would snatch less."


    "Dajin bank, it''s over."


    Miao Yong said: "after this battle, Dajin bank is in name only, and can''t turn over."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, turned to Lin Yong and solemnly said, "do you know the consequences of being unable to cash? If Daqin bank was run at that time, we didn''t have enough financial support; if Daqin bank didn''t have enough soldiers to guard; if Chang''an didn''t have enough royal guards to maintain order, even if Daqin bank had enough financial resources, once it was attacked, the consequences would be unimaginable. "


    "Remember what your highness said


    Lin Yong''s face was also a look of horror. When Dajin bank cashed before, although he did not personally participate, he also watched the scene not far away.


    Such a scene, shocking, but also in his mind, sounded the alarm.


    This must be remembered!


    It''s worth remembering.


    Zhang Xiu took back her eyes, looked at Miao Yong and said, "Miao Yong, after this, I''m afraid your surplus shop will close. After all, when Dajin bank cashed this time, Lin Yong exchanged countless money with the help of surplus shops. "


    Miao said with a smile: "Your Highness, although you can make some money, you can only be a stronghold. Even if you close the surplus shops, it doesn''t matter. After all, what we value is not the operation of surplus shops, but that they can help us hide and transport goods. In addition to the surplus shops, we have another stronghold. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu looked praising and nodded: "this time, the royal guards in Shanxi Province have done very well and worked very hard. You draw three hundred taels of gold and reward them one by one from the top down. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Miao likes to use his words.


    Although a lot of money has been mobilized this time, and even the surplus shops have suffered some losses, in fact, the surplus shops have borrowed money again, which has made up for the previous consumption and even made a lot of money.


    Now, Zhang Xiu also ordered awards, and everyone below must be happy, because they can get benefits.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Lin Yong. She asked: "Lin Yong, do you know what to do next?"


    Lin Yong said: "I know my humble position!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Lin Yong flashed a light in his eyes and said: "the next thing to do is to arrange people to spread the news and let countless people go to the outside of the imperial city with the cash in their hands and ask Yuan Shao to cash."


    "Under the fierce situation, let''s see how Yuan Shao deals with it. Because all the money in Dajin bank was seized. Now if Yuan Shao wants to exchange all his money, I''m afraid he will lose his fortune. "


    "In particular, the people who saved money in Dajin bank were not only ordinary people, but also many grass-roots officials, even some soldiers and so on. If it is not handled properly, the state of Jin will be in turmoil. "


    Lin Yong said: "this is his Highness''s serial plan, one link after another, and the final detonation is the real killer."


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu praised: "yes, you can see it. You know the operation of the bank."


    Lin Yong said: "Your Highness, I praise you


    Zhang xiudao said: "where we live now, Guo Tu is clear. Let''s go. It''s time to change places for a while. This house can be thrown away. Miao Yong, you can arrange it. "


    "Here it is


    Miao Yong ordered to move.


    After all the people change their houses, Zhang Xiu lives again. He has not left Yecheng for the time being, because the matter of Yecheng is not over yet. Let''s see how Yuan Shao should deal with it.


    When Miao Yong left to arrange the follow-up affairs, Lin Yong stood beside Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Highness, with the help of the Dajin bank, we are going to attack Dajin. In terms of financial resources, at least, Dajin will weaken a lot. At this time, are we going to send troops to attack Yuan Shao? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I want to send troops, but not now. Now the aftermath of Dajin bank is not over. We should make full use of it to disintegrate Yuan Shao''s public opinion. "


    "As for sending troops, we have to consider the time of sending troops. Because we attacked Yuan Shao, Cao Cao would not sit back and ignore him. At that time, it will be a big war. Because once we defeat Yuan Shao, it will be difficult for the next Cao Cao to protect himself. "


    "So beating Yuan Shao is equivalent to beating Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. It''s not cost-effective for the time being."


    "It''s not time to send troops."


    "At present, we should try our best to weaken Yuan Shao''s power."


    Zhang Xiu is clear about her plan to deal with Yuan Shao.If there were no Cao Cao, Liu Bei and sun CE, he could drive straight in and attack Yuan Shao directly. However, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are still eyeing each other. Even though Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are hostile, if Zhang Xiu really wants to destroy Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan may not sit idly by.


    This is a game of interests. We should be careful.


    Pull a hair and move the whole body.


    Under this premise, we can''t do it easily.


    Lin Yong nodded and solemnly said, "I understand what your highness said."


    Zhang Xiu said: "under the current situation, there is still one thing to do."


    Lin Yong asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu thought rotation, solemnly said: "in addition to the people to cash, but also to put pressure on Yuan Shao, let Yuan Shao not cash to pay the people, resulting in Yuan Shao and the people''s hostility."


    Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, you should arrange to mobilize your small group of royal guards to spread the news that I am about to attack the state of Jin."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded.


    Lin Yong, however, was puzzled and said, "Your Highness, if the news comes out, what if Yuan Shao, with the help of this incident, says that the deficit of Dajin bank was caused by the state of Qin, so as to gather the people''s support?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "for other things, for example, we killed the army of the state of Jin and defeated the state of Jin. Maybe Yuan Shao will use this to rally the people''s will and make everyone share a common hatred. "


    "But this time things are different."


    "Countless people lost money. Even some people would like to go to the state of Jin. But people are selfish. Considering that all their money is gone, especially the money they have accumulated for so many years, no one will give up. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "if Yuan Shao wants to use us to attack him to bewitch the people, we can refute that there is no plan to arrange a large army to attack in the territory of Daqin. In fact, we didn''t deploy troops in the first place. This news can make Yuan Shao lose face and heart. Countless people are even more fierce. "


    When Lin Yong heard this, his eyelids jumped.


    It''s a fantastic plan.


    One link, one link, one link.


    Even Zhang Xiu forced Yuan Shao to shift the responsibility to Daqin. However, once Yuan Shao did so, in the end, Daqin did not attack, and the news spread, Yuan Shao would lose face completely.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Lin Yong was so convinced that he bowed to himself and said, "Your Highness is wise. I admire you for your humble duty."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, looked at Wang Yue and said, "go and arrange it!"


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned and stepped down.


    Lin Yong thought about Zhang Xiu''s plan in his heart. The whole plan came step by step. Up to now, Yuan Shao has been defeated. Lin Yong took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, this time we should deal with Dajin bank and Yuan Shao. We should go back to our humble position and have a reasonable idea."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    The reason why he brought Lin Yong here is to give him an important position. After Lin Yong returns to Chang''an with Zhang Xiu, he will arrange for Lin Yong to take over as the president of Dajin bank and be fully responsible for the affairs of Dajin bank.


    Although Lin Yong still has to report to Liu Ba, his power is much greater.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiucai trained Lin Yong.

 Chapter 898

    Ye City, in the imperial city.


    Yuan Shao, wearing a coronal dress and a coronal crown, sat upright in the side hall with a slightly anxious look on his face. He has high hopes for Dajin bank. This is his money bag. However, it never occurred to me that the money bag had only been established for a short time. If it was bad, it would be bad. Moreover, it was out of control and affected the stability of the state of Jin.


    This was unexpected to Yuan Shao.


    The Daqin bank under Zhang Xiu''s rule is stable and there is no problem at all. But his Dajin bank was cashed, which Yuan Shao thought was arranged by Zhang Xiu. It is precisely because Zhang Xiu is a person, yuan Shaocai nervous, because Zhang Xiu this person, has always been extremely cunning.


    It''s not easy to deal with.


    If there is a problem with Dajin bank, Zhang Xiu will definitely not give up.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    After a while, a eunuch came in and saluted, "Your Majesty, the prince is here!"


    Yuan Shao said, "let him in!"


    Under the waiter, turn down to inform.


    After a while, Yuan Shang entered. He still didn''t know about Dajin bank. He entered happily. After standing still, he bowed himself and said, "my son, I''ll see your father!"


    Yuan Shao waved, "come here, come here!"


    Yuan Shang went straight to Yuan Shao. After standing in front of him, he asked, "what''s your father''s order?"


    "Bend down!"


    Yuan Shao said.


    Yuan Shang bent down and his head was not far away from Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao saw yuan Shang''s handsome cheek. Even though yuan Shang was similar to him in appearance, Yuan Shao could not contain his anger. Under the rule of anger, he swung his hand and fanned out.


    "Pa!"


    A loud slap reverberated in the hall.


    Yuan Shang was caught off guard and fell to the ground by Yuan Shao''s slap. His face was hot, and a five finger print appeared immediately, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.


    Yuan Shang was stunned and looked like a fool. He looked up at Yuan Shao and knelt down on the ground. He asked, "what''s wrong with my son, please make it clear."


    "Dog like things, who let you move Dajin bank''s money."


    Yuan Shao stood up and went to Yuan Shang. He looked down at Yuan Shang, who was kneeling on the ground. He bit his teeth in anger and kicked out with one foot. He only heard a slap, and the tip of his foot kicked on Yuan Shang''s heart. In a flash, Yuan Shang screamed and fell on the ground.


    The pain in my heart.


    At this moment, Yuan Shang''s mind turned quickly.


    What''s going on?


    What happened to Dajin bank was poked in front of his father.


    However, Yuan Shang was also prepared for this, he said: "father, let me explain. Although the son minister really let people borrow money from Dajin bank. But every sum of money has a basis, and there is no nonsense. "


    "And every loan left a certificate."


    "In the end, my son wants to pay back."


    "What''s more, the interest of the loan has never been less. His father so harshly criticized his children''s ministers, which puzzled them. The business of Dajin bank is open to business, which brings merchants loans. Why can''t my son come here? "


    "What''s more, my son didn''t misappropriate the bank''s money. Everything is based on the facts," Yuan said


    When Yuan Shao heard this, he became even more angry.


    Listening to Yuan Shang''s words, he seemed to satirize him. He said that he took the money from Dajin bank without leaving any evidence. It was a direct misappropriation, which made Yuan Shao angry.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Yuan Shao kept breathing and kicked out again. In the main hall, Yuan Shang''s screams were constantly heard. After a long time, Yuan Shao put out his anger and returned to his seat.


    Yuan Shang was hurt all over, and his face looked frightened. In his impression, Yuan Shao has always been gentle, especially in front of him, has always been a father. Today''s scene shocked yuan Shang.


    This is the first time Yuan Shao hit him!


    So hard.


    Yuan Shang climbed up to Yuan Shao and said again, "father, what happened?"


    Yuan Shao said: "the Bank of Shanxi is going to collapse."


    "Ah


    Yuan Shangwen exclaimed.


    The shock of the news far exceeded his pain, which led yuan Shang to forget his pain for a while and said, "father, I have a lot of money in Dajin bank. In particular, the money of innumerable people in the state of Jin was all deposited in the Bank of Dajin, and the gold deposits were continuously remitted in. How can such a big bank collapse? "


    At this time, another servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, two adults, Jushi and Guotu, are asking for a meeting."


    "Xuan!"


    Yuan Shaofen asked.


    Yuan Shao glanced at Yuan Shang, but he didn''t continue to talk to him, which made him still kneel on the ground.


    Not long later, Guo Tu and Ju Shi came.


    The look on their faces was extremely serious, because the Bank of Shanxi has now turned into a sea of fire. Even if the fire had been extinguished, many of the money in the Treasury of Dajin bank had been emptied, leaving only an empty Dajin bank.After the fire, the Dajin bank has already turned into a piece of scorched earth.


    Yuan Shao was nervous and couldn''t wait to ask, "Guo Tu, what''s wrong with Dajin bank?"


    "Destroyed, completely destroyed!"


    With a plop, Guo Tu knelt down on the ground and said with his head, "I''m incompetent. Your majesty, please surrender!"


    He stood aside, not kneeling.


    It has nothing to do with him.


    Even from the very beginning, he opposed the establishment of Dajin bank. In a strange field, what are the pitfalls and what should be paid attention to? There is no understanding at all, which is the most vulnerable to calculation.


    However, Yuan Shao was indomitable.


    So big Jin bank collapsed.


    Yuan Shao''s heart sank down. He bit his teeth and asked, "what kind of situation is it? You said it was ruined. To what extent has it been destroyed? How much money has been saved. "


    Guo Tu said: "it''s over in a big fire. The humble official rushed to the bank first, but when he arrived at the bank, countless people went crazy like a mob and rushed directly into the bank to plunder. "


    "All the soldiers in the bank were killed."


    "The whole bank is empty."


    "Countless people, like thugs robbing, have emptied our Dajin bank."


    "Before Mr. Ju arrived with his troops, someone set fire in the bank, so that the bank caught fire and turned into a sea of fire. Even if Mr. Ju arrives and orders the soldiers to put out the fire, the Bank of Dajin has turned into a piece of scorched earth. "


    Guo Tu''s voice choked and said, "Your Majesty, Dajin bank is gone. The money in Dajin bank is gone. Fortunately, your Majesty''s money was not mobilized. Otherwise, all this money will be wasted. "


    Yuan Shao breathed and his face was angry.


    His face turned red.


    Yuan Shao went to Guo Tu again. He couldn''t suppress his anger. He was furious again. He raised his leg and kicked out. He kicked Guo Tu and scolded, "waste, you waste!"


    Guo Tu fell to the ground, helpless.


    Blame him?


    If it wasn''t for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang''s wantonly moving money and the constant loan from the officials of the central government, Dajin bank would be more than that. Even in the case of cashing, there will be no problem.


    It''s not his fault!


    But Guo Tu couldn''t say it.


    He is the president of Dajin bank. He is responsible for all this.


    Seeing this, Ju Shu folded his hands, bowed to Yuan Shaoyi and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, it''s useless to punish Guo Tu now. At present, the most critical problem is how to solve it. "


    "Previously, Dajin bank was run by countless people, and even had trouble. Especially under the fire, countless bills in the bank were lost, and there was no evidence any more. "


    "Next, on the one hand, we need to carefully count the money lost; on the other hand, we have to face the cashing of the people. Many of the people have not cashed their money, and they will surely live in the future. "


    Ju said: "in particular, Zhang Xiu must have been involved in this case. I infer that maybe Zhang Xiu will arrange people to stir up trouble outside the palace. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, a servant rushed in and said, "Your Majesty, your majesty, the matter is not good. Countless people gathered outside the city, clamoring to exchange money. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face suddenly changed.


    Come on, that''s it.

 Chapter 899

    Yuan Shao ordered: "send the soldiers to the gate of the city to form an array to frighten them, and ignore them for the time being."


    "Here it is


    The waiter turned and stepped down.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes fell on him and asked, "juqing, countless people gather at the gate of the city. What do you think we should do? If this matter is not handled properly, I am afraid that the foundation of the great Jin State will be shaken. "


    After thinking about it, he asked, "Your Majesty, under the current situation, are you willing to pay all the people?"


    "Of course not!"


    Yuan Shao answered without hesitation.


    The loss of Dajin bank has been enormous. Even a lot of financial money, all wear and tear, loss of too much money. Especially during this period of time, countless people have deposited money. Once all the money has been paid, the consequences will be incalculable.


    Even, he had to go bankrupt.


    This is what Yuan Shao does not want.


    When he heard this, he was silent and sighed: "since your majesty is not willing to pay, you have to put all the things on Zhang Xiu in front of all the people. I implore your majesty to explain in person, saying that the problem of Dajin bank this time is Zhang Xiu''s calculation and Zhang Xiu''s dealing with us. That''s why Dajin bank collapsed. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, outside the hall, there were Wai Ji roaring in.


    After the NEISHI entered, he knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, in Yecheng, suddenly, news spread everywhere that Zhang Xiu had stationed troops in Hanoi County, the border of the state of Qin, and was ready to enter the state of Jin."


    "Hiss!"


    Yuan Shao took a cool breath.


    It''s a double blessing and a double disaster. This just happened to Dajin bank. In the twinkling of an eye, it happened again.


    It''s so frustrating.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and asked the servant to step down. Then he looked at Ju Shi and said, "Ju Qing, Zhang Xiu is going to send troops to kill again. I''m a little tired now. What''s your strategy? "


    He said solemnly, "in fact, it''s a good thing that Zhang Xiu is stationed at the border. Since Zhang Xiu is going to fight, we will fight Zhang Xiu. Even because of this war, it is more conducive for your majesty to evade the payment of the people. "


    After a pause, Ju said: "Your Majesty said that Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to kill, the Bank of Dajin was damaged, and the strength of Dajin was weakened. We must go all out to fight. The matter of cashing can not be carried out for the time being. We can only wait until later."


    Yuan shaozhuo thought about it for a while, then suddenly realized it. He praised it and said, "yes, yes, that''s the truth. I don''t want to cash it. That is to say, there is a certain amount of money to cash now, but it can''t be cashed because of the war. If we want to deal with it, we can only wait until later. If we delay time until the end, we will not honor it. Ha ha ha This is an opportunity! Zhang Xiu calculates everything, but she doesn''t have all the calculations. "


    I heard it in silence.


    It is really helpless for the king of a country to treat his people like this.


    This must have chilled the hearts of the people.


    He is also helpless, because if he doesn''t, he will fall into crisis. What''s more, now Zhang Xiu''s army is really stationed at the border, and it is facing a big army.


    "Go and see the people!"


    Yuan Shao stood up and took Guo Tu, Yuan Shang, Ju Shi and others out.


    Kuo Tu looks grateful to Jushou. If there is no solution, he will not be so easy to pass. Yuan Shaoqi even killed him.


    The party came out of the main hall, and it was not long before they came outside the imperial city.


    Soldiers are already stationed here.


    Because of the presence of soldiers, even though there are already a lot of people outside the Imperial City, no people dare to act rashly. When I was in Dajin bank, it was because there were no soldiers in Dajin bank. It was because there were no troops in Dajin bank. So when Miao Yong and others started a fire, there were countless people who agreed.


    Now it''s different.


    One by one, soldiers in armor, armed with sharp blades, who dare to act rashly, that is to seek death. Under such circumstances, the people dare to petition, but in fact, no one dares to do it.


    This is determined by strength.


    One by one, the people talked about it. Especially after seeing Yuan Shao come out, many people cried out to his majesty, saying that he would ask his majesty to do justice and so on.


    Previously, it was revealed that the money of Dajin bank was embezzled by the emperor Yuan Shao. On this basis, the people want Yuan Shao to exchange. After all, Dajin bank represents Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao is Dajin bank.


    Yuan Shao''s face was gloomy as he listened to the people''s shouting.


    A group of unruly people!


    A bunch of damn rascals!


    However, even Yuan Shao''s inner anger could not be revealed. Even, he had to act like a common enemy, raising his hand and pressing down to signal all the people to be quiet.


    One by one people, no longer speak.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Yuan Shao.


    Silence began to fall around.


    Yuan Shao took a deep breath and said in a loud voice, "folks, I''m very sorry about what happened to Dajin bank. I didn''t expect that Dajin bank had just been established and suffered from this storm. ""I have investigated the matter thoroughly."


    "This wave of cashing is entirely arranged by Zhang Xiu of the great Qin Dynasty, which is behind it. Even, it was Zhang Xiu of the state of Qin who planned this attack on Dajin bank, which led to all the money of Dajin bank being shot away. "


    "All this is caused by Zhang Xiu."


    Yuan Shao continued: "the losses of Dajin bank are countless. Countless people have saved money and entered Dajin bank. I also apologize for your loss. "


    "What''s the use of apologizing! It''s all for your own use. "


    Suddenly someone spoke in the crowd.


    "Yes, you embezzled them. The emperor embezzles, the prince embezzles and the officials embezzle, which leads to the lack of money in Dajin bank. "


    "It''s all your misappropriation."


    "Compensation must be made!"


    ¡­¡­


    In the crowd, there were countless people shouting.


    Countless people are talking about it.


    Yuan Shao''s words were abruptly interrupted, which made Yuan Shao helpless, because in the current situation, there are a lot of people outside, countless people shouting, he couldn''t find out who led him.


    "Silence


    Yuan Shao can only drink.


    After Yuan Shao opened his mouth, another soldier began to shout. With the cry of these soldiers, the people at the scene and the shouting people were shocked, and the scene was calm again.


    Yuan Shao continued: "I and the crown prince, including the Manchu officials of the great Jin State, have never been misappropriated. All these are rumors spread by Zhang Xiu''s people. You should not listen to rumors. "


    This remark was attacked by countless people.


    It''s impossible for Yuan Shao to clean himself up.


    He stepped forward, stood behind Yuan Shao and said, "Your Majesty, don''t be disturbed by others, and don''t talk about embezzlement."


    "You just need to say in front of the people that it''s not that you don''t honor your money. It''s because Zhang Xiu is stationed at the border, so you have to mobilize money and food for the time being to prepare for war with Zhang Xiu."


    "When the war is over, we''ll consider the payment."


    He said, "let''s put the matter down first, and then think about the solution. Now there is no solution, it can only be considered to drag the word formula, first drag through the current situation


    When Yuan Shao heard this, his eyes lit up and he praised his wit.


    He almost fell into the trap.


    If it''s not a reminder, it''s rhythmic, and it''s criticized by the people.

 Chapter 900

    Yuan Shao pressed down again and motioned everyone to be quiet. As the common people stopped talking, yuan shaoshen took a deep breath and said in a loud voice, "folks, you all have exchange certificates in your hands about your money in Dajin bank, right?"


    Everyone answered yes.


    One after another, the voice of reply kept ringing, forming a very noisy voice.


    After yuan SHAOHAO''s quiet words, all the people were quiet and did not speak any more. A pair of eyes, Qishu fell on Yuan Shao, waiting for Yuan Shao to explain again.


    Yuan Shao once again said, "you have all the cash in your hands. Next, I will exchange money for you one by one. No matter what situation Dajin is in, I will exchange money. "


    Many people echoed this remark.


    Countless people praised him.


    As long as yuan shaoken deals with money, everything is not a problem.


    Yuan Shao continued: "but the problem is that I am now facing the threat of Zhang Xiu. Just received the news from the border, after Zhang Xiu destroyed our Dajin bank by means of means, she has already stationed troops in the border of Dajin, in Hanoi, ready to enter our Dajin. "


    "Although there is still money in the court, it can be cashed to you."


    "However, once the large-scale cashing, the court had no money, and no longer had the strength and financial resources to resist Zhang Xiu''s army. So I''m here to ask the villagers to spare some time. "


    Yuan Shao said: "after I defeat Zhang Xiu and block her attack, I will cash again. I swear to heaven that I will never ignore you and pay all my money. "


    After saying this, many people were silent and didn''t know how to say it.


    Yuan Shao did not say that he would not pay.


    But now that Zhang Xiu''s army is killed, everyone knows that fighting costs money and costs a lot. Since it is a war with Zhang Xiu, it will definitely consume countless money and food. It is also very normal for Yuan Shao to delay the payment.


    "Your Majesty, I have something to say!"


    Suddenly, someone in the crowd yelled.


    He quickly forward crowded, not long, it has been crowded to the front, and then exclaimed: "Your Majesty, I am a businessman, I travel between Jin and Qin, I have something to say."


    The merchant was about thirty years old, with a round, fat figure and a round, chubby smile, giving people the feeling of Maitreya. After he came out, he looked at Yuan Shao eagerly.


    Yuan Shao said, "what do you have to say?"


    The merchant replied, "to your majesty, CaoMing''s caravan has just returned from Hanoi. The problem is that when I returned to Yecheng with my caravan, I didn''t hear the news that Zhang Xiu was stationed in Hanoi county. This is nothing. "


    "Yes, I know that, too."


    At this time, another businessman came forward.


    "Your Majesty, I got the news from the border that our caravan didn''t find any Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "That is, we didn''t find out!"


    ¡­¡­


    In the crowd, businessmen stood up and spoke one after another. With the opening of these merchants, all the people''s eyes on Yuan Shao suddenly changed again.


    Yuan Shao had previously explained that the people were willing to believe in resisting Zhang Xiu''s army. After all, they were the people of Jin. Unexpectedly, a group of businessmen pointed out the problem one after another.


    Everyone knows that this is absolutely cheating. It was Yuan Shao who cheated them.


    At the thought of this, countless people who came to collect debts were filled with righteous indignation and indignation. They could no longer keep calm. Someone suddenly exclaimed, "we should pay our money and exchange our money."


    "Refund!"


    "Refund now!"


    ¡­¡­


    All of a sudden, the cries of the people were heard.


    For a moment, the crowd was furious.


    Countless people, shout up, all people incomparably angry.


    The look on Yuan Shao''s face was completely black.


    No, it''s a trick!


    At this moment, Yuan Shao''s heart became clear. Earlier on, he got the news that Zhang Xiu was going to kill at the border. It was false and absolutely not true.


    And this is exactly what Zhang Xiu dug. Zhang Xiu specially spread false news, let Yuan Shao with the help of confrontation against Zhang Xiu as a reason, do not cash the people''s money deposited in Dajin bank, and then someone exposed it, making him face.


    Zhang Xiu''s calculation is deliberately waiting for him to jump in!


    Jushou stood behind Yuan Shao, his face full of helplessness. He had no idea that the final situation would turn out like this. Even Zhang Xiulian and Yuan Shao''s mind were so clear that he could see the trap Yuan Shao had set when he wanted to refuse to exchange.


    This is a very powerful calculation.


    Did Zhang Xiu come in person?


    In his heart, this idea suddenly came into being. But after this idea rises, he also full of helpless. Yecheng is such a big city with a huge population. It''s impossible to find Zhang Xiu hiding in a haystack.Ju Shi''s eyes turned and fell on Yuan Shao. At this time, it depends on what Yuan Shao did?


    He has no choice.


    All the retreats have been blocked by Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao''s face was full of anger. He was full of anger, but more at a loss. Thousands of people forced him here. He was at a loss for a moment and didn''t know how to solve the problem.


    Yuan Shang stepped forward with a ferocious face, gritted his teeth and said, "father Huang, this group of unruly people should be killed for threatening him like this. Now that we have done this, we will continue to kill these people. Kill all these people. "


    The endless intention of killing burst out from Yuan Shang''s face.


    He is not a good man.


    In particular, Yuan Shang has been living in zhongmingdingshi''s home since he was a child. He doesn''t feel much about money and so on. He spends money lavishly. Even he grew up in the yuan family when he was young, and he had no guilt about killing his servants!


    No guilt.


    A group of rascals, kill them.


    "No, your majesty!"


    Ju Shou was startled by Yuan Shang''s words, and he quickly stopped and said, "Your Majesty, once you kill these people. In the end, the news will lead to the resentment of Jin people. My whole Dajin will also be at the top of the storm. "


    Yuan Shao said, "Ju Qing, what do you say to do?"


    Yuan Shang stares at Ju Shi coldly and says: "Mr. Ju, the state affairs are difficult now. Is it true that Mr. Ju is willing to give up all his wealth to help us overcome the difficulties of our motherland? "


    "I''m willing!"


    He answered without hesitation.


    As a minister of the great Jin Dynasty, he should be loyal to the great Jin Dynasty. At this point, he can only answer like this.


    Yuan Shangda was very dissatisfied and said, "Lord Ju is loyal and admirable. But this group of craftsmen at the gate of the imperial city will not understand your pains. Even he did not understand the hardships of guozuo. "


    "If we cash the funds, whether it''s the Treasury of my father, or the Treasury of my prince''s house, or the families of the ministers, we will have to spend all our money in order to get through the difficulties."


    "What is the final result?"


    "It''s the advance of the people and the retreat of the country."


    "The people are rich, but Dajin is in trouble. If you think about it carefully, when the country is in danger, the people don''t care. It''s definitely not a cost-effective business. There''s no choice, so I don''t support dealing with it. "


    Yuan Shang''s eyes were sharp and he continued: "what''s more, in case Zhang Xiu''s army really kills us, what can we do to resist? Without enough money and food, who will resist? "


    My face changed again and again.


    He wanted to refute, because Yuan Shang''s words were actually full of holes and there were too many problems. But he didn''t retort. When he got to his mouth, he swallowed it back. It was meaningless to retort.


    He looked at Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao was the emperor of Jin Dynasty, and his final decision was decided by him.


    Look at Yuan Shao''s choice.

 Chapter 901

    Standing outside Guo Tu''s mansion, Lin Yong looked relaxed and indifferent. Under the premise of the collapse of Dajin bank and the ups and downs of Dajin, he is fully confident of the next calculation.


    He believes that Guo Tu can''t turn his back on others. After all, Guo Tu has a huge deficit this time.


    He waited quietly.


    After a while, the servant came out to inform him to enter. Lin Yong shook his robes and followed him inside and outside the study.


    The attendant waved his hand and Lin Yong stepped in.


    Seeing Guo Tu, Lin Yong bowed himself and said, "I''ve met Mr. Guo."


    Guo Tu stands up.


    His eyes are full of killing intention. If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu''s plan, if it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu''s aim at him, he would not be so embarrassed, let alone lead him into trouble.


    Lin Yong is Zhang Xiu''s running dog.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    He hated having to kill Lin Yong immediately.


    Guo Tu clenched his teeth and said, "Lin Yong, how dare you come to see me. Do you know, I''ve arranged for someone to come to you. Even, people were arranged to go to the surplus shops to find people. Today''s surplus shops are completely empty. Lin Yong, you are Zhang Xiu''s person. You dare to appear in front of me. You really want to die! I''ll take you and send you to your majesty. "


    "Somebody


    Guo Tu immediately gave the order.


    In an instant, a servant rushed in with a murderous look.


    Guo Tu said: "drag people down and kill them!"


    The servant came forward, but Lin Yong didn''t hide. He didn''t say a word and let the servant drag him out. It was such a scene that Guo Tu frowned for a moment.


    Originally, he was full of anger, but Lin Yong didn''t move. When his anger went out, he was confused. Lin Yong came to see him, not to die.


    There must be a plan.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Guo Tu gave a command, and his servants stopped. Guo Tu waved his hand, and his servants turned and stepped down.


    Facing Guo Tu, Lin Yong said with a smile: "I knew that Lord Guo was not a killer."


    Guo Tu said, "you have done me a terrible job."


    Lin Yong said: "speaking of disaster, in fact, I didn''t do much harm to Lord Guo. First, although my surplus shops have borrowed money, they have not actually been exposed. "


    "Second, who is responsible for the collapse of Dajin bank? It was Yuan Shao, Yuan Shang and a group of officials of the state of great Jin who hollowed out the Bank of great Jin one after another, which led to the scene that the bank could not be cashed. You know, in our territory of Daqin, Daqin bank will never allow it. "


    "Third, that is, Mr. Guo Tu, he doesn''t make money."


    Lin Yong smiles and says, "Mr. Guo, what do you think?"


    Guo TU was a little helpless.


    If you think about it carefully, that''s the truth. Lin Yong is busy, but on behalf of the surplus shop loans, really did not harm him. If Lin Yong wants to harm him, he can directly expose the fact that Yu''s shop works for Zhang Xiu, and Guo TU will be even worse at that time.


    Guo Tu said: "you are not afraid of death! Are you not afraid that I will give you to your majesty to kill you. Now your majesty is in a state of anger and needs to be vented. What''s more, your majesty also needs people as models to explain to the people of the state of Jin. "


    Lin Yong said with a smile: "Mr. Guo is a smart man."


    Guo Tu said, "come on, why do you come here?"


    Lin Yong said: "for the life and future of Lord Guo."


    Guo Tu said: "even if I am punished by your majesty because of Dajin bank, it''s just a salary. My presence at your Majesty''s side is indispensable. What you are saying is nothing but rhetoric and alarmism. "


    Lin Yong said: "on the surface, Mr. Guo was only punished for his salary, but is his vision only limited to this, just considering this point, not considering the feelings of the people of Jin?"


    Brush!


    Guo Tu''s face suddenly changed.


    He did miss it.


    Although Yuan Shao did a little punishment, in fact, it did not have any impact on him. But this time, countless people deposited money in the bank, but Yuan Shao slaughtered the people, resulting in countless people being killed.


    People are bound to resent.


    People will not only resent Yuan Shao''s atrocities, but also Guo Tu''s actions.


    Because Guo Tu is the president of the bank.


    Even if Guo Tu did not give an order, he presided over all this. He was the president of the bank, so he had to carry the pot. When the people are boiling and countless people are angry, there may be just people who want to assassinate him for revenge.


    After all, there are too many casualties.


    In front of the scene of the massacre, there is still a corpse.


    Guo Tu shivered with cold.


    Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Yong said: "Mr. Guo only considers the common people, but forgets. When people''s grievances boil, even among the dead people, how many are the families of soldiers in the army, how many are the families of assistant officials in some places, and how many are involved in some big families. ""It''s one thing that people resent you."


    "We can go up another level, and the whole state of Jin will be in turmoil."


    "Who would be loyal to the state of Jin, who slaughtered the common people and refused to accept the debt? Originally, Jin was not the opponent of Qin. At this time, Yuan Shao killed himself and slaughtered the people wantonly, which was tantamount to cutting off the foundation. "


    "Who is willing to work for Yuan Shao?"


    Lin Yong was not impatient and continued: "in the state of Jin under the leadership of Yuan Shao, it''s impolite to say that the killing of the common people has a greater impact than the loss of a state."


    "Save people and lose land, and save people and land. It''s what the king of Qin said. I believe Lord Guo can understand the reason and the importance of it. "


    "Yuan Shao has lost his people and foundation. The state of Jin is already a rickety building and a big building will collapse."


    "The state of Jin will not last long."


    Lin Yong''s words are full of determination and disdain for the state of Jin.


    Guo Tu''s expression changed again and again.


    His face was full of worry.


    He had been so engrossed in anger that he lost his mind, but now he is calm and thinking carefully about the current situation. Under the current situation, Jin''s situation is indeed quite bad.


    Jin is in danger!


    Guo Tu turned his mind, looked at Lin Yong again and said, "why do you say so much?"


    Lin Yongdao: "Your Highness said that Mr. Guo Tu is a wise man. Now, it''s a pity that Mr. Guo is so bright. So your highness hopes that Mr. Guo Tu can change his appearance and serve for Daqin. "


    Guo Tu said, "what if I refuse?"


    Lin Yong said: "in fact, I can''t think of the reason why Mr. Guo refused. Of course, if Mr. Guo Tu wants to refuse, it''s nothing. I''m afraid that the story of Lord Guo will be widely spread throughout the state of Jin. When the time comes, the people will yell at you. Can you still have a foothold? Yuan Shaolian''s own son, Yuan Tan, can be sacrificed. Besides, what about a foreign minister like you? "


    Guo Tu clenched his teeth and clenched his fist.


    He was cornered.


    In today''s situation, he even has no choice. Moreover, Yuan Shao is in decline. Especially when the Dajin bank incident is thoroughly fermented, I''m afraid that the whole territory of Jin will be filled with gunpowder and public indignation.


    Guo Tu said: "what does Zhang Xiu want me to do?"


    Lin Yong was relieved and said, "you don''t need Mr. Guo Tu to do anything. You just need to obey your highness. When his highness crusades against Yuan Shao, or if Yuan Shao has any action, Lord Guo Tu can deliver the message. "


    Guo Tu clenched his fist and thought in his heart.


    As a wise man, he can see that the current situation of Jin is unfavorable, and indeed Zhang Xiu is even worse. After taking a deep breath, Guo Tu solemnly said, "OK, I promise. I am willing to submit to the king of Qin and work for him. "


    Lin Yong said: "Mr. Guo is a smart man!"


    After a pause, Lin Yong stood up, took out a piece of rice paper, handed it to Guo Tu, and said with a straight face: "since Mr. Guo is willing to surrender, write a surrender form, and then sign it."


    "No problem!"


    Guo Tu responded directly.


    This is the means to restrain him. Since Guo Tu wants to surrender, there is nothing to say.


    It''s better to be obedient anyway.


    One more way out.


    Guo Tu quickly wrote down the descent table, pressed his fingerprints, handed it to Lin Yong and said, "I want to ask a question, is the king of Qin planning in Yecheng?"


    "Of course!"


    Lin Yong replied and said, "Mr. Guo has made a choice, so I won''t stay. Next, if Lord Guo has something to do, the royal guards will contact you. "


    "Goodbye!"


    With that, Lin Yong turned and walked out.


    Guo Tu looks at Lin Yong''s back and sits down dejectedly. Now he has betrayed Yuan Shao and started to work for Zhang Xiu.


    He has no choice.

 Chapter 902

    When Lin Yong came back to his residence and saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and said, "Your Highness Shengming, after what happened in Dajin bank, we recruited Guo Tu at one stroke. Today, Guo Tu is already his Highness''s pawn. When dealing with Yuan Shao in the future, this is a sharp weapon. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the success depends on Yuan Shao! If Yuan Shao didn''t slaughter the people, it would not cause so much resentment, and Guo Tu''s future would not be cut off. "


    "Originally, I thought that even if Yuan Shao didn''t cash his money and lost his faithfulness, he would drive out the common people."


    "But he slaughtered the people."


    "It''s beyond expectation."


    Zhang Xiu said: "such a thing, for the state of Jin, is even worse. For the state of Qin, it was a timely help. Yuan Shao''s work has lived up to Wang''s expectations. "


    Lin Yong said: "Your Highness, are we still in Yecheng now?"


    "There''s one more thing. When you''re done, get out!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed with light.


    Lin Yong said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "we should thoroughly publicize Yuan Shao''s massacre of the common people."


    In his eyes, there was an expectation that once the Bank of Dajin collapsed and the news of Yuan Shao''s slaughter spread, Yuan Shao''s reputation would be completely rotten. No matter how Yuan Shao came from, no matter how brilliant the yuan family used to be, but now everything is gone.


    "Your Highness, Miao Yong asked to see you."


    At this time, Wang Yue''s voice sounded outside the study.


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    As the order was given, Miao Yong entered his study and reported: "Your Highness, all the plans have been successful. Now, the whole Dajin bank has completely collapsed. When Yuan Shao slaughtered the people, our people were among them. I counted the results. Two of our royal guards failed to retreat in time and died on the spot. In addition, at least 3000 people were killed. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the dead royal guards are deeply buried. Not only that, increase the pension. "


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Miao bowed his thanks.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "your next task is to spread the story of Yuan Shao''s massacre to the whole Jin State, and let all the people know about Yuan Shao''s atrocities."


    "At the same time, you have to let people spread the news about the collapse of Dajin bank. The news of external publicity is that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang''s father and son have been constantly making money. They have already moved and expanded the matter, and the people will surely believe it. "


    "In the end, all the people will be disappointed."


    "In the whole state of Jin, the hearts of the people were broken, and it was impossible to share the same hatred with Yuan Shao."


    Zhang Xiu said: "at the end of the day, you can arrange people to release a message. Because of Yuan Shao''s deficit and lack of finance, Yuan Shao has to seize the great Jin Dynasty. According to the external propaganda, no matter the officials of the great Jin State or the common people, they can deposit and withdraw money to the Bank of Daqin. No matter which country they are, as long as they are willing to save money, the state of Daqin recognizes it and will never shirk responsibility. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    When Miao Yong heard this, he said, "Your Highness''s move is tantamount to drawing money from the bottom of the pot."


    Zhang Xiu said: "go and arrange it as soon as possible! Next, Wang is going to leave Yecheng. You are fully responsible for the big and small affairs of Yecheng and handle them at your own discretion. "


    "Here it is


    Miao should bow down.


    After Miao Yong turns around and leaves, Zhang Xiu arranges Wang Yue and Lin Yong to pack up, and then leaves quietly. Not long after Zhang Xiu and his party left Yecheng, the news of the collapse of Dajin bank completely spread in the state of Dajin.


    In addition, the news that Yuan Shao slaughtered the people in order not to cash his money spread throughout the whole Jin Dynasty.


    The whole Jin Dynasty was in an uproar.


    No one thought that Yuan Shao''s means were so extreme.


    It''s killing people.


    There are many people who have been slaughtered. They have something to do with the soldiers in the army and the local assistant officials. Under such a premise, the local government was in an uproar and the crowd was furious. They all accused Yuan Shao of recklessness, and they even thought Yuan Shao was a fatuous king.


    The news quickly spread to other countries. When the news came to the state of Wei, Cao Cao got the news and was shocked into a cold sweat. He did not expect that Yuan Shao had lost so miserably this time, and the loss was so huge.


    At the first time, Cao Cao sent people to call Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu to prepare for the resumption of the game.


    That''s the lesson.


    It''s a lesson from the past.


    But also can take this, in order to understand Zhang Xiu hand trajectory.


    Cao Cao handed Guo Jia and others the information sent back by the sentinel, and let them all browse it. After reading one by one, they all look dignified, because one by one they all know Zhang Xiu''s hand trajectory.


    Cheng Yu stroked his white beard under his jaw and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, the state of Jin will not last long. As the king of a country, Yuan Shao''s treachery and slaughter of the common people is tantamount to breaking his own arm and seeking his own death. "


    Cao Cao sighed: "I know this. But at present, it''s not about how to rescue Yuan Shao, but about Zhang Xiu''s tactics this time. ""According to the information in the letter, in Wang''s opinion, Zhang Xiu''s hand should be four times."


    "First, innumerable people advocate good banking. Zhang Xiu must have participated in this matter. In fact, looking at the whole thing, Zhang Xiu did not stop her from setting up the bank. She should push the boat with the current and help Yuan Shao set up the bank. "


    "The second is to facilitate the large-scale hollowing out of Dajin bank, making the whole bank in deficit."


    "Third, it caused confusion in cashing, which made the bank suddenly become a piece of scorched earth. Countless people robbed money and left. Countless people, all turned into mobs. "


    "The fourth is to urge the people to petition at the siege gate, hoping that Yuan Shao would pay, which eventually turned into the tragedy of Yuan Shao killing the people, making the whole situation uncontrollable."


    Cao Cao, with a solemn face, said: "these four points are Zhang Xiu''s moves. If we build Dawei bank, too. Perhaps, Zhang Xiu will follow such means to deal with us. "


    Guo Jia said: "although we use the same method, it is impossible to use it on us. After all, Wang Wang is different from Yuan Shao. The reason why Zhang Xiu''s plan can work, in fact, Yuan Shao has a great responsibility. "


    "He and Yuan Shang have been misappropriating the money of Dajin bank, and even something happened. Instead of cashing, they slaughtered the people."


    "It''s all self inflicted."


    "Of course, if we don''t have these problems, maybe Zhang Xiu will also have other means."


    "After all, Zhang Xiu is most familiar with the field."


    Guo Jia said with emotion: "it''s really lucky that we didn''t set up a bank at the beginning. Zhang Xiu is a terrible person. I''m afraid that the situation, which has just calmed down for a while, is about to make waves again. "


    Cheng Yu said: "it''s the so-called taking advantage of your illness to kill you. At this time, it''s really a great opportunity to deal with Yuan Shao. After all, Yuan Shao has lost the popular support and the whole interior is in turmoil."


    Cao Cao said, "if Zhang Xiu attacks Yuan Shao, what shall we do?"


    This is also the concern of Cao Cao.


    He has to think about the current situation in order to respond.


    Xun you didn''t say anything. After hearing Cao Cao''s words, he said, "in fact, after careful analysis, we have three choices when Yuan Shao may be attacked."


    "The first is to help Yuan Shao."


    "Second, Yuan Shao did not give up."


    "Third, take advantage of the fire."


    "It depends on how you choose."


    "But if we give up rescuing Yuan Shao, once Yuan Shao is exterminated, the whole northern part of the great Wei kingdom will be in danger, and we are the lone army. So it''s untenable to give up rushing for help and not attack Yuan Shao. "


    "Take advantage of the fire, but in the face of Zhang Xiu''s strength, even if we can get a share, we don''t get much. Even in the next step, Zhang Xiu will turn to us instead. "


    "Careful analysis, only the first point is left, that is to help Yuan Shao."


    Xun you''s face was solemn, and he said: "we have a relationship with Zhang Xiu. If we don''t rescue Yuan Shao, we will be in trouble in the end. "


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "what Gongda said is true."


    Xun you continued: "but since we want to help, how can we make a decision? In my humble opinion, the first thing is to arrange an envoy to see Yuan Shao immediately and ask Yuan Shao to take precautions. Second, we should mobilize our troops at any time and be ready to send troops. His highness and Zhang Xiu fight several times. Knowing that Zhang Xiu is powerful, this man is not easy to deal with. "


    Cao Cao said, "what Gongda said is true."


    Cao Cao agreed with Xun you''s proposal. He looked at Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and others and said, "what do you think?"


    Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness, I agree with Xun Gongda''s analysis and suggestions. We and Yuan Shao are mutually beneficial. Once Yuan Shao is eliminated, we will face Zhang Xiu directly. "


    Guo Jia said, "I agree with you in your humble position."


    All of them agreed, and there was no opinion.


    After all, in the current situation, we can only do so.


    After discussing all kinds of things, Cao Cao said with emotion: "although banks are quite risky. However, according to the news, Zhang Xiu''s Daqin bank was very successful, with countless people depositing money. At the same time, there are a lot of people doing things with loans. So that today''s Daqin bank is thriving. "


    Cao Cao also has some ideas about the benefits of banks.


    There are many advantages to this.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, there is no way. Unless, we also have familiar people, can understand the bank, otherwise cannot easily try


    Cao Cao cast a cool color in his eyes and said, "we don''t understand now, it doesn''t mean we won''t understand in the future. Arrange people to get familiar with Daqin bank. In the future, we will also set up banks. "


    "Here it is


    Cheng Yu should go down.


    The rest showed approval.


    This is the safest proposal. Although it is slower, it is relatively stable. Cao Cao talked with the public about Yuan Shao''s Dajin bank. They chatted carefully one by one. They were all filled with emotion.You can''t learn the means of Zhang Xiu!

 Chapter 903

    When Zhang Xiu and his party returned to Chang''an, it was autumn.


    In September of early autumn, the wind is cool and refreshing. When she withdrew along the way, Zhang Xiu paid close attention to the news of Yuan Shao in the state of Jin. According to the news sent back by the royal guards, the people in the state of Jin were already boiling with resentment, and countless people were still making trouble. She hoped that Yuan Shao could cash in.


    From the beginning to the end, Yuan Shao did not deal with the people.


    People, he has been slaughtered, has carried the butcher''s name. Under this premise, if he gives money to the people again, he will not only bear the blame, but also do good deeds, which is a typical thankless.


    Yuan Shao was not willing to do such a thing.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of Yuan Shao''s news. He went back to the palace of King Qin in Chang''an City and read the latest government affairs first. Today, government affairs in general are handled by six departments. Zhang Xiu dealt with all the things, and nothing happened.


    Then he took a two-day rest at home to adjust his condition.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu specially called Liu ba.


    When Liu Ba saw Zhang Xiu, he saluted and said, "I''m a humble Liu ba. I''d like to meet your highness."


    Zhang xiudao said: "don''t be polite. You have read the war report about the state of Jin and have a general understanding of the means to deal with the big Jin bank. Now, what I mean is that you are still the president of Daqin bank, and Lin Yong is the acting president, who is fully responsible for the affairs of Daqin bank. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "let him adapt for three months first. If everything is OK after three months, Lin Yong will be formally appointed as the president of Daqin bank. You can take charge of the bank as a whole."


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba responded directly.


    Now he is in charge of the account department. He is very busy every day. There are numerous meetings. On such a premise, it would be wonderful for Liu Ba to have someone to share the government affairs for him.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go ahead!"


    "Here it is


    Liu Ba got up and stepped down.


    After Zhang Xiu stopped for a while, she called for a servant and said, "come, call Sima Yi, Zhang song, Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Li Ru, Pang Tong and Tian Feng to see you."


    These people are Zhang Xiu''s main team.


    Today, the talent structure of the state of Qin has not lost to any of the princes, and even the lineup of Zhang Xiu is stronger than Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. The valet went to give orders, and soon everyone entered.


    After saluting one by one, they took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "I''ll call you up today, not for anything else, but for the next thing. After nearly a year''s rest, we can expect that Daqin will be full of vitality. After a little rest, we have to send troops to the East. Therefore, it''s time to agree on the plan of sending troops in advance. "


    When they heard the words, they all looked solemn.


    This is the most important point. The next discussion will determine the direction of the world.


    Whether the great Qin Dynasty can unify the world and successfully end this troubled time all depends on the war. Because if this war is won successfully, it will be successful in sweeping the world. If the East is blocked, the follow-up will be more difficult.


    For a moment, no one had spoken.


    All thinking.


    After all, it''s pretty critical.


    At this time, Zhang song took the initiative to say: "Your Highness, I suggest attacking Yuan Shao. After Dajin bank, Yuan Shao''s strength has been weakened to the extreme. "


    "Today, Yuan Shao is willing to do his best to support the people."


    "In terms of financial resources, after the loss of Dajin bank, Yuan Shao''s savings in Jizhou for many years were all consumed, and there was no longer enough money to support the war."


    "In terms of military strength, Yuan Shao''s military is now in a state of panic, and the military is thinking of change."


    Zhang Song thought that his proposal was very organized, and solemnly said: "so he proposed to take a humble position, and then he attacked Yuan Shao to destroy the state of Jin. As long as the state of Jin is destroyed, we can occupy the north, and it is easy to wipe out the states of Wei and Wu.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not comment.


    The most obvious truth is that at present, it is the simplest to directly attack Yuan Shao.


    After all, Yuan Shao was weak.


    Jia Xu was not impatient and said: "Your Highness, I hold the opposite opinion. I think it''s not appropriate to attack Yuan Shao at this time. What we will do next is to attack Cao Cao. When Cao Cao is eliminated, the world will be settled after the first World War. "


    "I don''t think it''s right to be humble," Zhang said


    Jia Xu asked: "Oh, Zhang ziqiao thinks that my suggestion is inappropriate."


    The corners of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose, looking forward to it.


    I don''t know why!


    The reason involved is that only after a debate can the most appropriate plan be discussed.


    This is also the purpose of Zhang Xiu to call the people together.


    Zhang Song said: "Your Highness, I think it''s twice the result with twice the effort to attack Cao Cao. The reason is very simple. Today''s Cao Cao has recovered his strength after a rest. "


    "Not only that, but also Liu Bei was in Wei. Liu Bei is the Duke of Chu. He and Cao Cao will never sit back and ignore him. Once his highness attacks Cao Cao, he will attack Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time. He will face the army of Cao Cao and Liu Bei at the same time. Even if Yuan Shao is weak, he will rush to help Cao Cao. ""At that time, your highness will have to face the Allied forces of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Liu Bei. It''s not cost-effective."


    "At the beginning, he fought Cao Cao and Liu Bei in Nanyang County. On the one hand, his highness won by flying ball, on the other hand, he also had his Highness''s plan."


    "But now, Cao Cao has been on guard, and it''s quite difficult for him to win by surprise."


    Zhang Song said: "so the humble proposal is not suitable for attacking Cao Cao. Now the state of Jin is unstable, so we can only attack Yuan Shao first. Only by working hard to break Yuan Shao can we win the world. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t think there was any accident in this analysis. He asked, "Wenhe, how do you say that?"


    Jia Xu said, "it''s just a fallacy."


    Zhang song does not like Jia Xu''s refutation. Even though Jia Xu has a high status, he is not afraid. Therefore, Zhang Song''s face was cold, his voice was slightly raised, and he asked, "I''d like to listen to Jia Shangshu''s Gao Lun."


    Jia Xu gave a little smile and said, "Your Highness, the reason why we want to attack Cao Cao is from two aspects. The first is the advantage of attacking Cao Cao; the second is the disadvantage of attacking Yuan Shao, which is the reason why Zhang ziqiao was refuted in his humble position. "


    "First of all, the disadvantage of attacking Yuan Shao!"


    "Zhang ziqiao just mentioned that when we attack Cao Cao, Yuan Shaohui will send troops to help us. In the same way, if we attack Yuan Shao, Cao Cao will certainly send troops to help. "


    "There is no doubt about that."


    "I think all of you here have the ability to infer this result."


    Jia Xu continued: "in addition, we have maintained a cooperative relationship with Gongsun Zan before. But everyone knows that once Yuan Shao is destroyed and Gongsun Zan lives in Youzhou, will his highness let Gongsun Zan take over? "


    "Obviously not!"


    "The cognition of any monarch is on the side of his bed, and he will not allow others to snore."


    "That''s common sense!"


    "I believe that if we attack Yuan Shao, or even destroy Yuan Shao, instead of Yuan Shao attacking us, Gongsun Zan will not attack Yuan Shao, or even fight against Yuan Shaohua."


    "It is well known that Yuan Shao is weak."


    "But even though Yuan Shao''s strength is very weak, his thin camel is bigger than his horse. No matter how weak he is, he still has some strength. Especially when we entered Jizhou, it was a local operation. "


    "This is good for Yuan Shao."


    Jia Xu said with great eloquence: "I think that under such a premise, it seems to be attacking Yuan Shao, but it is equal to facing Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan at the same time. It is extremely difficult to destroy Yuan Shao."


    A word, clearly into the public''s ears.


    Everyone is thinking.


    When Zhang Song heard Jia Xu''s words, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Jia Xu with dignified eyes. He had said a lot about Yuan Shao himself, but he ignored the overall situation.


    Jia Xu''s comments and analysis directly from the general direction make it difficult for Zhang song to refute.

 Chapter 904

    Zhang song had no way to refute, so he said: "dare to ask Jia Shangshu, what''s the advantage of attacking Cao Cao? You know, today''s Cao Cao is not weak. You said that Cao Cao and Gongsun Zan helped to attack Yuan Shao. But in the same way, when attacking Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei will help, and Cao Cao''s own strength is not weak. "


    Zhang Song said in a voice: "carefully speaking, the pressure of attacking Cao Cao is far greater than that of attacking Yuan Shao."


    Jia Xu said: "I don''t think so."


    "To attack Cao Cao, we should not attack him directly, but pay attention to strategy."


    "This is war."


    "In war, we have to pay attention to coping strategies and the ways and means of action."


    "In my opinion, to deal with Cao Cao, there must be three arrangements at the same time."


    "First, to deploy an army to the border of Hanoi County, pretending to attack Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao must be alarmed at the gathering of this army, and he will turn to Cao Cao and others for help in order to resist. "


    "If Cao Cao sent troops into the state of Jin, it would be the best. If Cao Cao did not send troops into Jin, it would have no effect. Because the purpose of this army is to frighten Yuan Shao. "


    Jia Xu said: "just now Zhang ziqiao also said that after the state of Jin went through the big Jin bank, the losses were huge. The lack of troops weakens our strength. "


    "Under this premise, only when Yuan Shao becomes a trapped animal can he fight and fight to death. But now, he won''t, because once he comes to the aid of Cao Cao, the army of Hanoi county can drive straight into Jizhou and directly attack Huanglong. "


    "This is what Yuan Shao is afraid of."


    "In fact, with Yuan Shao''s character, when he saw us garrison in Hanoi County, he finally knew that our goal was Cao Cao. He would only choose to sweep the snow in front of the door, but could not rush to help Cao Cao."


    "This is the means to contain Yuan Shao."


    Jia Xu waved his sleeves and continued: "on the contrary, it is obviously impossible to garrison troops at the border of Wei state to deter Cao Cao from sending troops. After all, Cao Cao''s strength is stronger than Yuan Shao''s, he is enough to defend


    The situation was clearly analyzed by talking about it.


    Zhang Song''s face changed slightly.


    Jia Xu is so powerful that he has such a deep calculation. He didn''t consider this step at all.


    Sima Yi sat down and heard Jia Xu''s words. Her eyes were full of splendor. For a long time, although Sima Yi''s teacher is Hu Zhao, he always consulted Jia Xu on the management of state affairs, especially on strategy, as if he treated Jia Xu as half a teacher.


    He was glad to hear that.


    Ginger is still old and spicy.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Wenhe, what''s the second step?"


    Jia Xu replied: "the second aspect is to send orders to Huang Zhong of Jingzhou to quietly transfer his troops from Nanyang County to Jiangxia county. The army is hiding in Jiangxia county and is ready to surprise Liu Bei''s Runan County."


    "We are attacking Cao Cao as well as Liu Bei."


    "When Cao Cao is attacked, Liu Bei will not sit back and ignore him. He will unite with Cao Cao to fight against us. Then Liu Bei''s troops have been fighting with our army since Runan County left. This force stationed quietly on the border of Jiangxia County in the south of Runan County can raid Runan and enter Liu Bei''s jurisdiction. "


    "Work hard and don''t destroy Liu Bei."


    "Liu Bei''s jurisdiction failed. Liu Bei could not help Cao Cao for his own sake."


    "By then, Cao Cao''s strength will be weak."


    "It will be much easier to defeat Cao Cao."


    Jia Xu''s eyes twinkled with light, and he continued: "the second aspect is to calculate Liu Bei."


    Gudong!


    Zhang Song swallowed a mouthful of saliva again.


    When he looked at Jia Xu, there was a look of horror in his eyes. Previously, he used the reason that when Jia Xu proposed to attack Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei would resist at the same time. But now, after Jia Xu''s words, all the arguments he refuted were refuted, even he agreed with them.


    This is the most embarrassing.


    Jia Xu continued: "the third aspect is simple. That is to secretly mobilize the troops and wait for me to join the army of Hanoi county to see Cao Cao''s decision. If Cao Cao sent troops, he would be the best. Finally, our army suddenly entered the territory of the state of Wei and beat Cao Cao unprepared. If we deal with Cao Cao in three ways, we are bound to win. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu said faintly: "Zhang ziqiao, what do you think?"


    Zhang Song slightly ugly face, quite embarrassed, arched his hand and said: "what Jia Shangshu said is very true, Zhang Song admire." With that, Zhang Song looked at Zhang Xiu again and said, "Your Highness, Jia Shangshu is a great talent. He''s in a humble position."


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "do you have any different opinions?"


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness, there is something to add to your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said, "but it doesn''t hurt to say so!"


    Li Ru said: "in dealing with Cao Cao, why not make use of the emperor? Use the royal guards to spread the news and incite the emperor to stir up trouble in Xudu. Although the loyal ministers under the emperor''s command, like leeks, are constantly harvested by Cao Cao, they are also growing up. There are always people who go to the side door of the emperor for power. So, these are available. "Zhang xiuhan said: "this arrangement is really acceptable. However, it is also included in the battle against Cao Cao. "


    After that, Zhang Xiu looked at the rest of the people again, and none of them had more opinions.


    They all agree with Jia Xu''s plan.


    Pang Tong said: "Your Highness, we should choose to send troops. Then, when shall we send troops?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "wait until the early spring of next year, we will send troops. This year, we will not send troops for the time being."


    Pang Tong nodded and said nothing more.


    It''s OK to wait until the spring of next year to send troops. After all, we have to go according to Jia Xu''s plan. There are still many things to be busy and many things to prepare.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "the plan will be made, detailed arrangements, led by the Ministry of war, gradually arranged."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned to Xu Shu and asked, "Yuanzhi, how''s the sweet potato thing going? Today''s sweet potato is growing


    Xu Shu replied, "please tell your highness that all the sweet potatoes transported back from Yizhou are used for planting. Through continuous cutting seedlings and large-scale planting, hundreds of acres of sweet potato have been planted. Now, these hundreds of acres of official land are all under supervision. However, the promotion of sweet potato has not been carried out yet. "


    "After all, the people haven''t seen the real object yet."


    "My plan is to wait for the sweet potato to mature, and then carry out large-scale publicity. In addition, people were invited to try it on the spot. And our officials in Daqin will also participate in the trial. "


    Xu Shu, confident and calm, said, "after the people have witnessed it, they will naturally believe it. Hundreds of mu of sweet potatoes are enough to spread to Chang''an and even parts of Guanzhong. At that time, the people in the world will be shocked by this. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.


    He agreed with Xu Shu''s arrangement. In the current situation, if we want the people to accept that empty talk is useless, we have to rely on real interests.


    Just like Daqin bank in the past, because people can make money, and Daqin bank has resisted cashing, it can win the trust of countless people, otherwise it is impossible for people to believe.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "how long is it expected to mature?"


    Xu Shu replied, "according to the report of the planter, all the sweet potato vines have turned yellow now. More than half a month at most, it will all wither and yellow. And the planters have dug up some sweet potatoes. This year, the growth of sweet potatoes is excellent. Each sweet potato is very big. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "since it''s only half a month, let''s start the publicity."


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu should bow his hand.

 Chapter 905

    In October, the weather turns cool.


    The whole city of Chang''an was boiling. Suddenly, a news came out from the streets that his Highness the king of Qin was sheltered by God and was given a divine plant. After cultivation, it has been planted on a large scale and is about to be harvested. The production capacity per mu reaches 5000-6000 kg.


    As soon as the news came out, it immediately ignited public opinion.


    It''s impossible to produce 5000 or 6000 Jin per mu.


    From the time of three emperors and five emperors to today''s Great Han Dynasty, we have never seen any supernatural things that can produce five or six thousand jin per mu. If there were such a species, it would not starve so many people.


    The neighbors are talking about it.


    All the facial expressions have expectations, but most of them are skeptical.


    A lot of people don''t believe it.


    It''s incredible.


    There is also a considerable part of the people, firmly stand on the side of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu recognition. The reason is very simple. Since the rise of Nanyang County, Zhang Xiu has never lied or deceived the people.


    Every word Zhang Xiu said is true. Zhang Xiu''s promise has been realized one by one. In particular, the interest of Daqin bank was fully realized, and many people benefited.


    Bank interest, though not much. But for many rich people, it''s the happiest thing to lie down and earn money. So many people trust Zhang Xiu.


    On this day, the city suddenly had yamen spread news.


    Three days later, the government will harvest mature deities in the official fields of Shanglin garden.


    The government allowed the people to watch.


    Near Shanglinyuan, there are not only horse farms, but also official fields. The common people in Chang''an are familiar with the local conditions, so when the news spread, countless people were excited and wanted to have a look.


    In the whole territory of Daqin, people today are not short of food and clothing. But no one will think that eating more food is the best, especially if there is such a yield of sweet potato, which is also good news for countless people.


    Three days is fleeting.


    In these three days, the news has been completely detonated, and countless people are excited. In the early morning, people had already come to the planting site of sweet potato in Shanglin garden. Unfortunately, there are soldiers on guard outside the area and no one is allowed to enter.


    Only the front piece of land is surrounded by the people.


    This is still guarded by soldiers.


    Surrounded by a sea of people, there are curious expressions in their eyes, and they are all talking about each other.


    "Here comes the king of Qin!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came out.


    With this sound, around the periphery of the circle of the people, Zhang Xiu led the six ministers of the court, as well as Sima Yi, Zhang Song and others around him, had come to the scene.


    Along the way, one by one people get out of the way.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu arrived.


    He looked at the vines that had begun to wither. He didn''t immediately order the harvest. He turned around and looked at all the people around him. He raised his hand and pressed down, indicating that all the people would be quiet.


    After a while, everything around was quiet, and no one spoke.


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiulang said: "I believe the villagers already know about what we are going to do today because we have publicized it in advance. The grain to be harvested today is called sweet potato. The yield of this product is high and it can fill the stomach. Although it is not a delicious food, it is the food that can fill the stomach and ensure not to be hungry. Especially for the elderly, it''s the most delicious food. "


    When people around heard this, they began to talk about it.


    Sweet potato!


    The God is called sweet potato.


    Now they finally know their names. They just think about them one by one. They think about the names handed down from generation to generation. They have never heard of sweet potatoes. They don''t know that there are such species.


    This is a rarity.


    Zhang Xiu waited for a while. When all the people stopped talking, she said, "harvest!"


    At the first order, the farmers who had already been ready began to harvest quickly. The harvest of sweet potatoes is divided into different tasks. Some people are specially responsible for harvesting vines, while others are specially responsible for digging sweet potatoes. When the first sweet potato is dug out, there are six sweet potatoes. Although each sweet potato is only a little more than three jin, it is better to be even, and each sweet potato is even.


    With the beginning of excavation, Zhang Xiu had people boil water at the same time and directly boil sweet potatoes with water.


    Zhang Xiu selected 20 sweet potatoes to peel and cut into pieces and put them into the water.


    Farming is still going on, and as time goes by, after the water boils, the heat continues to invade, and the faint fragrance of sweet potato begins to diffuse in the air. At this time, the people began to talk about it, because after each sweet potato plant was dug out, there were at least three or four sweet potatoes in each plant.


    The output is huge.


    Later, some farmers wiped off the soil on the sweet potatoes and put them into baskets one by one. Baskets of sweet potatoes were carried out and put on the roadside, forming a huge shock.Countless people, shocked.


    Countless people are talking about it.


    If you don''t see it, you don''t believe it, but now you see it, it''s a real shock. At the same time, the sweet potatoes in the big pot gradually become soft and ripe, no longer hard.


    Zhang Xiu personally tasted a piece of sweet potato and saw that it was thoroughly cooked. She selected 50 people to try it. Everyone tries a piece of sweet potato. When the sweet potato is eaten in the mouth, the soft, waxy and sweet taste diffuses, as if eating delicacies.


    This is the experience of eating sweet potato for the first time.


    It''s the first time, after all.


    After eating, the common people are full of praise. These people looked at the sweet potatoes on the ground, their eyes were shining, and their faces were full of praise.


    Delicious!


    It''s delicious!


    Zhang Xiu lets the people who try to eat back, and after these people return, they begin to share their feelings after eating. With the rapid spread of news, countless people are eager to see it.


    Harvest people, because there are many.


    A mu of sweet potato land, soon all dug up, all sweet potatoes in the basket neatly placed. When Zhang Xiu ordered weighing, he began to weigh the yield of this mu.


    With the shouts of 100 Jin, 120 Jin, 130 Jin and so on, by the end of the day, all the sweet potatoes in one mu had been counted.


    Five thousand eight hundred jin sweet potato.


    An acre of land, output 5800 Jin, such output on who''s body, it is extremely shocking.


    It''s shocking.


    Especially in this era, there has never been such a huge amount of grain production,


    the people were completely shocked.


    Zhang Xiu did not immediately come to a conclusion and asked the farmer in charge of digging sweet potatoes to continue digging sweet potatoes in the next mu. With the passage of time, when the sweet potato of each mu is dug out, the yield of sweet potato of each mu is quite huge. There is no sweet potato field with a yield of less than 5500 Jin.


    The highest yield of sweet potato per mu is 6500 Jin.


    This kind of production is terrible. Even one mu of sweet potato production, can have 1000 Jin, that is extremely shocking, but these reached more than 6000 Jin, can imagine the surprise of the people.


    Countless people marveled.


    Long live the king of Qin


    In the crowd, suddenly there were people shouting.


    Long live the king of Qin


    Long live the king of Qin


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the people cried out, because they thought of the previous rumors. Many people didn''t believe that sweet potato was a gift from heaven, but now they can''t help believing it. Besides the gift of heaven, what else can produce so much?


    It must be a gift.


    Just so, countless people are shouting, and they are more devout to Zhang Xiu. High voice one after another, I saw the surrounding dense, countless people are kneeling down, shouting long live the king of Qin.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene in her eyes, and a smile passed in her eyes.


    This is the power of sweet potatoes.


    Because no one has ever seen it, because it has never been cultivated, especially in a country dominated by farming, the emergence of sweet potato is very powerful and can cause a huge shock.


    It''s no surprise that Jia Xu, Li Ru and other six ministers, as well as the rest of the people, watched this scene, because they had been able to predict such a scene since they knew the yield of sweet potato.


    A good harvest of sweet potatoes is a great joy.


    Fortunately for Daqin!


    The world is very lucky!

 Chapter 906

    Zhang Xiu through the sweet potato thing, once again gathered a lot of people. He listened to the cries of the people around him and looked at the proud look on the faces of the people under his command. His faces were also full of relaxed and comfortable looks.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that all the people were quiet, and let them all stand up.


    A moment later, the people stopped talking.


    Everyone stood up.


    One by one, people''s eyes are looking at Zhang Xiu, with an expression of expectation in their eyes.


    The common people are simple, but they have their own abacus. Now, seeing the power of sweet potato, they are all looking forward to planting sweet potato and introducing this kind of food.


    With sweet potatoes, there is food.


    Zhang Xiu said: "folks, today''s large-scale harvest of sweet potato, will not be used for food, will be used to cultivate seedlings. After the spring of next year, the government will distribute seedlings and teach you how to plant sweet potatoes. "


    "when Changan county is located, it will collect seedlings according to the household situation according to the registered residence population, and then return to their respective planting. Anyone who is registered residence can receive seedlings. "


    "not in registered residence, unable to receive."


    Zhang Xiu said: "after you go back, those who should be registered can be registered. Next, Chang''an County will make arrangements for population registration. "


    The people cheered.


    For ordinary people, this is their chance.


    However, there are also some elite families who see opportunities, because Zhang Xiu just said that they can increase the population. As long as the population is registered, money can be given.


    This is their chance!


    After all, under some big families, there are many hidden populations. Even if the registration will lead to the reported population, it will be spared for the sake of sweet potato seedlings.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "now that you''ve seen sweet potatoes, let''s go and get ready."


    At one order, many people left.


    Because they already know about sweet potato, they all listen to the increase of population. As long as the population increases, they will have the opportunity to receive sweet potato seedlings.


    Many of the people left, while others stayed and did not leave.


    Still watching.


    Such people are also a minority.


    The cultivation of sweet potatoes is still going on. The sweet potatoes are carried out in baskets. Then the escorted soldiers set out and began to send all the sweet potatoes to the government treasury. At this time, sweet potatoes are rare, so soldiers accompany the transportation along the way to ensure that no one keeps them privately.


    Zhang Song stands beside Zhang embroidery. "Your Highness finally mentioned the people in Changan County, and you can get the seedlings of sweet potatoes by registered residence." In the end, the population of Chang''an County will increase dramatically. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "isn''t this a good thing?"


    Zhang Song said: "with more people, it is easy to breed problems. In particular, this sudden influx of countless people, even if they want to go to people, but I''m afraid there are quite a lot of problems


    Sima Yi stepped forward and said, "Zhang Gong, Cao Miao. In fact, the reason why his highness announced this is to increase the population of Chang''an County."


    "Chang''an, as the capital of the state of Qin, was originally the political center."


    "There must be a huge population in Chang''an."


    "In fact, the number of registered people is far from all. Or some vagrant beggars, or slaves of some big families, or some tenants, are all hidden black households. "


    Sima Yi said, "it''s a good thing whether it''s the people''s seven aunts and eight aunts who come to join us or the famous families who release the population."


    "In short, it''s about increasing the number of registered people."


    "as long as the population is registered, under the circumstances, they want to leave Changan, and no road registered residence is not easy. When wars are frequent, people are displaced everywhere and can leave at will. "


    "Today, all parts of the state of Qin are peaceful. As long as the people settle down in Changan and want to run to everywhere, there is no registered residence and no road leads, it is even more difficult.


    Sima Yi said, "Your Highness, on the one hand, publicized the advantages of sweet potato, which is to teach people to fish, so that people can cultivate sweet potato. But on the other hand, it is also to check the population, or to increase the population. Either way, it''s a great way


    Brush!


    Zhang Song''s face changed slightly.


    His face changed and his smile was embarrassed.


    It''s targeted again!


    I''ve been hurt again!


    When he was in the palace of King Qin, Zhang song had put forward his own opinions on how to send troops, but he was finally attacked by Jia Xu, and he didn''t even have a chance to get a foothold.


    Now his remarks were originally to ask Zhang Xiu, but in the end, Sima Yi''s words refuted his words to the last.


    No face at all!What a tragedy!


    Zhang Song closed his mouth and didn''t say much to avoid being targeted again.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Sima Yi with approval at the moment and said, "what Zhongda said is what the king is thinking about. Now we should not only publicize sweet potato, but also take this opportunity to check the population. For a long time, aristocratic families and distinguished families all over the world have a large population. In particular, these people can not be found. Now is the opportunity for them to release the population. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    A crowd spoke together.


    The expression on each face showed approval.


    They all agree with Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Yin zhaoshu ordered him to return to Changji County immediately


    After a pause, Xu Shu continued: "Your Highness, so many sweet potatoes have been collected. When it comes to planting and raising seedlings next year, if there are more seedlings, will they be planted by themselves or distributed to ordinary people? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if there is any surplus, give it to the people of other counties in jingzhaoyin area. In today''s situation, we have enough food, so we don''t have to worry about food. What''s more, you can buy even if you don''t have it. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed his hand to answer the question.


    Zhang Xiu also arranged for the inspector''s court and the royal guards to stare at her, and then left with the six ministers and the people around her. Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to participate in the follow-up mining of sweet potatoes.


    Zhang Xiu just needs to arrange people to stare at her.


    Back in Chang''an City, Zhang Xiu went back to the palace of King Qin, while Xu Shu, Jia Xu and other six ministers were busy with their own affairs. In the evening, Wang Yue arranged for people to send back ten baskets of sweet potatoes, which were specially supplied to the palace of King Qin.


    Zhang Xiu left a basket of sweet potatoes and gave the rest nine baskets of sweet potatoes to Jia Xu, Li Ru and other generals in order to reward them.


    In fact, it''s rare these days.


    So it''s rare.


    When the next year''s large-scale cultivation, countless people also cultivate, sweet potato is no longer rare. Even in the next year, when more people grow sweet potatoes, they may become food to feed their stomachs. Even the better off people will not eat such sweet potatoes at all.


    If you eat too much, you will get tired of it.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the cook to cook the sweet potatoes.


    As the cold wind began to blow, Jia Xu''s army had completed the adjustment. The fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning and the Langya camp led by Chen Dao headed north to Hanoi county.


    This lineup, is equal to the posture of war.


    After the lineup, the news spread to Yecheng, Yuan Shao was startled. Yuan Shao quickly mobilized soldiers to prepare for defense, and began to send people to Cao Cao''s place for help. Cao Cao must arrange for soldiers to rescue.


    Nowadays, Yuan Shao does not have the strength to compete with Zhang Xiu alone.


    In particular, the collapse of Dajin bank this year made Yuan Shao''s strength drop sharply. Once Zhang Xiu''s army really wants to enter the territory of Jin, Yuan Shao must be unable to carry it, so he must ask for help.

 Chapter 907

    The state of Wei, the palace of the king of Wei.


    In the study.


    Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu all gathered here.


    Right above, Cao Cao is sitting.


    Below, there was Cao ang.


    Today, Cao ang is the successor of the state of Wei. Once a hundred years later, Cao ang inherited the great rule of Wei. In particular, Cao ang was a noble corporal, brave and tenacious, who not only won the trust of Cao Cao, but also won the unanimous praise of Wei Dynasty officials.


    Cao Cao looked around the crowd and said, "I have just received a letter sent by Yuan Shao. He said that Zhang Xiu''s troops are at the border of Hanoi County, and there are as many as 50000 or 60000 troops, ready to invade Jin at any time. Yuan Shao sent envoys to us for help. He hoped that Wang would send troops into the state of Jin to help him resist the army of Zhang Xiu. What do you think of that? "


    Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "before that, his highness had arranged a messenger to inform Yuan Shao to be careful. Now in the past few months, I think Yuan Shao is at least on guard. "


    "At least in a short time, Yuan Shao will not be defeated by Zhang Xiu''s army. Even though the state of Jin was in turmoil, Yuan Shao''s strength should not be underestimated because the dead camel was bigger than the horse. "


    "I think that when Yuan Shao was about to be attacked by Zhang Xiu, the state of Wei didn''t need to send troops in time. Even, we should slow down a little, and then send troops to rescue Yuan Shao. "


    Cheng Yu said: "after all, Yuan Shao''s strength, even if weakened, is not weak."


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "I understand what Zhong De Gong means. We''re going to send troops, but we have to slow down a little bit. After Yuan Shao takes over for a while and weakens Zhang Xiu with the help of Yuan Shao''s strength, it''s not too late to send troops, right? "


    Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Cao Cao said, "what about you?"


    Xun Yu''s face was calm, and he said, "although there was a competitive relationship between Wei and Yuan Shao, it was mainly because of the loss of lips and cold teeth. So rescue is necessary. Rescue can be delayed, but we can''t even deploy too many troops. Otherwise, Liu Bei will take advantage of the fire and rob


    Xun Yu was always on guard against Liu Bei.


    This is a big problem.


    But now, it is not easy to solve.


    Once Cao Cao wanted to send troops to attack Liu Bei, he would be hurt, even forced to rush Liu Bei, which led to Liu Bei''s jumping over the wall, which was not good for the situation of the whole state of Wei, so he could only let Liu Bei stay in Runan.


    Guo Jia said: "if you are a man, it reminds me that I have an idea."


    Cao Cao said, "what do you think?"


    Guo Jia said: "now that Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed at the border of Hanoi County, it is very likely that she will attack Yuan Shao. So under this premise, even if there is Huang Zhong stationed in Nanyang County, but we suddenly enter, Huang Zhong''s forces may not be able to stop us. "


    "After all, Zhang Xiu''s main force went to the north to fight Yuan Shao."


    "So my idea is that we should fight on two lines. Some troops were dispatched to the north to help Yuan Shao. Then, he combined with Liu Bei''s army to attack Nanyang County again and defeat Huang Zhong''s forces. "


    "As long as Huang Zhong is destroyed and Nanyang County is captured, it will be as easy as a palm. Even Jingzhou will be easily captured. Zhang Xiu wants to go north. This is exactly our chance. "


    Guo Jia put forward suggestions.


    This is a new way to open up a separate battlefield and take the initiative to attack Zhang Xiu.


    When Cao Liang heard this, he saw him.


    He and Zhang Xiu have always been in conflict.


    He wants to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    He wanted to be ashamed.


    Cao Cao thought about it for a while, and then said, "although fengxiao''s proposal is a two-way battle, I really approve of this plan. Do you have another opinion?"


    Xun you suddenly said, "Your Highness, I have different views on humble position."


    Cao Cao said, "what''s your opinion?"


    Xun you said: "although Zhang Xiu was stationed in Hanoi County, would there be a means of mending the plank road in the open and surrendering Chen Cang in secret. On the surface, he wanted to deal with Yuan Shao. In fact, he wanted to send troops to deal with us and directly attack the great Wei. "


    "No way!"


    Xun Yu frowned.


    Although Xun Yu was inferior to Xun you in military strategy, his strategic vision was not weak.


    Xun Yu thought for a moment and continued: "Zhang Xiu is very powerful, especially the state of Jin under the rule of Yuan Shao, which has just experienced great turbulence. When it is the most appropriate time to destroy Yuan Shao, why should we send troops to the great Wei? "


    Guo Jia''s face is full of meditation. The more she ponders, the brighter her eyes are.


    Cao Cao is also a military master. After thinking about it, he nodded: "it''s not impossible to make a fair proposal."


    Xun you continued: "the first reason why I have such a judgment is that Zhang Xiu has been fighting for many years in the South and in the north. Once she really sends out troops, she must be personally on the scene."


    "But now the news from Chang''an is that Zhang Xiu has made some sweet potatoes, which can yield 5000 or 6000 Jin per mu. It''s ridiculous. Since Zhang Xiu is in Chang''an, I think there are some problems with the means of attacking Yuan Shao. ""The second reason is that the way of fighting lies in the actual situation."


    "Our consistent conjecture, even the normal idea, is that Zhang Xiu will take advantage of his illness to kill him, so she supports Yuan Shao. But in fact, Yuan Shao, a camel on the verge of death, with our help, is not easily defeated. "


    "On the contrary, we in the Wei Dynasty were not on guard."


    Xun you''s eyes twinkled with light, and he continued: "the third reason is that since Zhang Xiu stationed troops in Hanoi County, it is tantamount to nailing Yuan Shao''s army to death, which makes Yuan Shao dare not act rashly."


    "Even if we were attacked, Yuan Shao did not dare to act rashly. Zhang Xiu attacked us, no one rushed to help us. Zhang Xiu also has less pressure. The only concern is Liu Bei. "


    Xun you said: "if I were to plan, I would take unexpected, even unexpected ways to attack the great Wei. Therefore, I believe that the ultimate goal of Zhang Xiu is not Yuan Shao, but my great Wei. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Cao Cao''s eyes twinkled with light, said: "Gongda''s words can be described as bold words."


    He praised Xun you''s analysis.


    This is a very rational, even very accurate judgment.


    Cao Cao continued: "from the very beginning, I directly believed that Zhang Xiu would attack Yuan Shao. But after Gongda''s analysis, especially Zhang Xiu''s cunning nature, I''m afraid she will deal with us. "


    After a pause, Cao Cao said, "we have to be ready for this battle. Last time, we were defeated in Nanyang County. It was not only Xia Houdun who was seriously injured, but also Cao Hong who was killed. This time, we will get it back. "


    Xun you continued: "in fact, we can try Yuan Shao to see if he has the courage to let Yuan Shao quietly send troops to our great Wei. In this way, the military strength in the territory of the state of Wei, together with Liu Bei''s. After the confluence of the three armies, if we want to compete with Zhang Xiu''s forces in the Wei Dynasty, we will surely win. However, it depends on whether Yuan Shao has the courage. "


    "No, certainly not!"


    Cao Cao replied without hesitation, "I know Yuan Shao. He is not a gambler or even a risk taker. Because with the strength of Yuan Shao, once large-scale troops were mobilized into the great Wei Dynasty. On the one hand, the life and death to Zhang Xiu, because once Zhang Xiu really into, he can''t resist


    "On the other hand, he also handed over life and death to the king."


    "Because if the king deals with his army, he will be completely finished. So there is a great possibility that Yuan Shao will choose to refuse. After all, Ben Wang and Yuan Shao used to be playmates together, familiar with his temperament. "


    Cao Cao said, "you don''t have to think about uniting Yuan Shao."


    Xun you said, "if that''s the case, Yuan Shao will be ignored. Next, we will rely on ourselves and Liu Bei to fight against Zhang Xiu''s army. But this matter must be kept secret, because the royal guards under Zhang Xiu''s command are all pervasive, and the information is very well-informed. "


    After a pause, Xun you continued: "we have to hide the news that we are going north to help Yuan Shao. What''s more, we should never reveal the news that we are going to arrange a large army on the border of the great Wei Dynasty. "


    Cao Cao said, "what Gongda said is true."


    The rest of them echoed one after another. They talked about the plan one by one, revised the detailed arrangement, and adjusted the whole plan. When they mentioned the plan of attacking Nanyang, they no longer chose it and turned to comprehensive defense.

 Chapter 908

    The state of Jin, Yecheng.


    In the palace.


    Today, Yuan Shao is in a state of anxiety all day, worried that Zhang Xiu''s army will enter the state of Jin. The state of Jin has just experienced a turmoil in the Dajin bank. The loss of money is huge, and the people''s hearts are also unprecedented.


    Yuan Shao is not sure about Zhang Xiu. After all, the popular sentiment has not stabilized. Therefore, Yuan Shao now put his hope on Cao Cao and hoped that Cao Cao would send troops to rescue him. At the same time, Yuan Shao is looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    After all, he didn''t want to be his family against Zhang Xiu.


    The original Yuan Shao, have been addicted to wine and sex, drinking for fun, life leisurely. But after Zhang Xiu''s garrison at the border, Yuan Shao couldn''t eat and sleep, and he lost his spirit in doing anything.


    I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will kill me.


    Once upon a time, he was powerful.


    He can despise the princes of the world.


    But now just a Zhang Xiu, he was helpless, Yuan Shao is very worried. Yuan Shaosong''s crown, leaning down in the hall, seemed to collapse.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The sound of hasty steps was heard from outside the side hall.


    An attendant entered and reported, "Your Majesty, I beg to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Yuan Shao gave an impatient order.


    He leaned forward slightly, with an expectant look on his face. Now he is looking forward to good news. In a short time, he had already entered and bowed himself and said, "your majesty!"


    Yuan Shao couldn''t wait to ask: "juqing, is there any news about Cao Cao?"


    "Yes!"


    He nodded in reply.


    Yuan Shao said, "but is it time to send troops?"


    Ju said, "I''ll tell your majesty that Cao Cao has sent someone to reply. He has sent his troops to the East County border. Once a war breaks out in the state of Jin, Cao Cao''s troops will immediately enter the territory of Jin to rescue us. "


    Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "why didn''t Cao Cao let his troops directly enter the territory of Jin? If he directly enters the state of Jin, once Zhang Xiu comes, he can respond in the shortest time. "


    He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is not desirable!"


    Yuan shaodao: "why?"


    Ju zhengse said: "although Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed at the border of Hanoi county and may enter the state of Jin at any time, Zhang Xiu has not entered the state of Jin after all. At this time, there were two unfavorable factors for Cao Cao''s troops to enter the state of Jin. "


    Yuan Shao said, "which two?"


    He replied, "first, it''s not good for money saving. Now Cao Cao''s troops are stationed at the border of Dongjun county. They provide food and grass by themselves. We have saved money and food. If Cao Cao''s troops enter the state of Jin, we have to give them money and consume a lot of money. Second, once Cao Cao''s troops enter the state of Jin, in case of any change, it will pose a threat to us and is not conducive to the security of the state of Jin. "


    After a pause, he said, "so the best result is that Cao Cao''s army stayed at the border of Dongjun."


    Yuan Shao pondered carefully and said, "what juqing said is true, but you have to be prepared. Be careful of Zhang Xiu''s army. This war is imminent and may happen at any time. "


    "Don''t worry, your majesty," he said. "The defense of all places, especially the border with Hanoi County, is better arranged. All the soldiers, horses and ministers are well arranged. "


    Yuan Shao said, "I''ve worked hard for juqing."


    "It''s not hard to be humble," he said


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "step back!"


    He bowed and stepped down.


    At this moment, Yuan Shao felt that a big stone had fallen to the ground. As soon as he thought of the colorful life in the harem, he could not help but go to the harem to fight the fire.


    After Juzhi left the palace, he just arrived at the office, but saw Guo Tu enter. Guo Tu pretended to be uneasy and asked, "Mr. Ju, is there the latest news coming back?"


    I went to see Yuan Shao earlier. He knew that.


    Now, Guo Tu secretly turns to Zhang Xiu. Since he has become Zhang Xiu''s man, he also accepts his own identity and wants to make contributions. Today, the decline of the state of Jin is already visible. Especially in the past few months, the taxes of Jin State have been greatly reduced, and even some soldiers in the army have fled, which is a mess.


    This strengthened Guo Tu''s idea of working for Zhang Xiu.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu suddenly stationed troops at the border, Guo Tu thought that Zhang Xiu''s army was about to kill, so he began active activities. On the one hand, it is to inquire about the news; on the other hand, it is to test people''s minds to see if they can instigate rebellion against some people for Zhang Xiu.


    He said directly: "it''s true that the latest news has come back. Now Cao Cao has sent troops to the border of Dongjun. As long as Zhang Xiu''s army enters the territory of Jin, Cao Cao will send troops to help immediately. "


    "That''s good, that''s good!"


    Guo Tu replied superficially, looking very happy. But the next moment, he said tentatively: "Lord Ju, the state of Jin and Zhang Xiu are going to war. Do you think we can resist it?""I can''t resist it


    I didn''t hesitate to answer.


    But after answering a sentence, suddenly, a light came across his eyes, staring at Guo Tu and asking, "Guo Tu, are you dissatisfied with your majesty because of the bank business, so you have another idea?"


    "No way!"


    Guo Tu shook his head and said, "nothing, but I''m worried. Mr. Ju, you and I are both smart people and can see into the situation. You should be clear about the current situation in the state of Jin. First, Dajin bank collapsed, and then his majesty slaughtered the people. After the outbreak of these two things, Dajin was extremely weak. I''m worried! "


    Speaking of Dajin bank, he was very angry and scolded: "do you mean to say that if you didn''t stop your majesty and the prince, it would be so? At the beginning, your majesty wanted to set up Dajin bank, and you agreed. In the end, you are in charge of Dajin bank, but Dajin also suffered a heavy loss. "


    "I didn''t know that would happen," Guo said. What''s more, the collapse of Dajin bank is not my responsibility. As far as this matter is concerned, your majesty has a considerable responsibility, as do all the officials in the court. As for slaughtering the common people, that''s the prince''s suggestion. The prince wants to go his own way, and his majesty has approved it. "


    When he heard this, he sighed dejectedly.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed at the border. The situation is quite bad, and she is worried about it. As Guo Tu said, there are many complaints in the Da Jin area, and the people have a lot of opinions on Yuan Shao.


    Countless people have been slaughtered, countless money has been lost, many businessmen have gone bankrupt, and many people can''t survive. What''s more, some local people have become bandits.


    It''s just that these things are not big.


    Therefore, Juzhi also arranged for people to suppress it, and did not report it to the higher authorities.


    Guo Tu continued: "let me say that under the current situation, I''m afraid that even if there is Cao Cao''s reinforcements, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu''s troops will not be able to be stopped. We are in danger. "


    Ju Shen said in a deep voice: "it''s not that far. When it''s really irresistible, I will suggest your majesty to ask Gongsun Zan for help. We have a hostile relationship with Gongsun Zan. But once the great Jin Dynasty was defeated, Gongsun Zan would be encircled by Zhang Xiu. But that''s the final plan. "


    Guo Tu''s eyes twinkled.


    This is very important news.


    Guo Tu tried again and again several times. Unfortunately, what he showed in his words was his determination to fight to the end. It was impossible to surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    So Guo Tu put out his mind.


    He didn''t persuade any more.


    After Guo Tu digs off the topic, he doesn''t talk to Ju Shi any more. He leaves the government office in a hurry, and then goes back to his residence to write a letter. Then Guo Tu arranges someone to send the news that Ju Shi might suggest Yuan Shao to ask for Gongsun Zan, so that Miao can send the news.

 Chapter 909

    Yecheng, the residence of the royal guards.


    Miao Yong is cleaning up the latest statistics. As the leader of the Jin royal guards, he is very busy and has countless things in his hands. After all, there are countless news every day, collected from all parts of the state of Jin and submitted to him for examination.


    If there is any important news, Miao Yong will arrange someone to send it out immediately. If it''s not particularly important, Miao Yong will handle it by himself.


    When Miao Yong was dealing with government affairs, the royal guards came in and handed over a letter to report: "my Lord, Guo tugang arranged someone to send it to the contact place."


    Miao nodded and looked at it. After he finished reading it, he realized that he might suggest Yuan Shao to ask Gongsun Zan for help, so he immediately sealed the news and arranged for someone to send it back as soon as possible.


    After Miao finished arranging, he continued to deal with the matter.


    But at this time, Su Hong came.


    After Su Hong entered, Miao said: "Su Hong, you have been by Yuan Shang''s side. Why did you come all of a sudden. But what''s the important thing? "


    Su Hong said: "signs, I do have an important thing here, to discuss with you."


    Miao said, "but it doesn''t matter!"


    Su Hong said: "this morning, I was working in the prince''s mansion. By chance, I heard a piece of news. Some officials of the prince''s mansion were talking about it. They were not optimistic about Yuan Shao''s support. They thought that Yuan Shao could not stop the king of Qin. Some of these officials have arranged for their families to take their money away in advance and go to Chang''an to deposit it in the Bank of Daqin. "


    "They''re going to come down," Miao said


    Su Hong replied, "no, they mean that if money stays at home, it''s easy to be robbed or even confiscated. So they put their money directly into the Bank of Daqin, so even if the army of the king of Qin killed them, it would not affect them. "


    "In view of this, I have an idea."


    "In any case, today''s Dajin is already in turmoil. Even the officials of the prince''s mansion are so pessimistic about Dajin, not to mention the other businessmen and officials? "


    "So I think we can mobilize the royal guards of the state of Jin to publicize the news that the army of the state of Qin is about to attack the state of Jin and the state of Jin is about to fall."


    "After all, the fierce tiger army and Langya camp have been stationed on the border of Hanoi county."


    "It''s true."


    Su Hong said: "then we will guide the officials and people of Jin state to deposit their money in Daqin bank. Even if there is any trouble, it will not be affected."


    After a pause, Su Hong said: "in this way, there must be countless people from all over the state of Jin going to Chang''an to save money. Today''s great Jin, this is the icing on the cake, life is very sad. Once so much money flows into Daqin bank, it will be a good thing for the king of Qin


    "Wonderful


    Miao Yong''s eyes flashed a look of approval.


    That''s good advice.


    This is tantamount to hollowing out the foundation of Yuan Shao. Just imagine that the money of officials and the people has been taken away. Even if Yuan Shao wants to levy taxes, he will have no money.


    Su Hong said: "signs, is my plan feasible?"


    "Feasible, very feasible!"


    Miao Yong''s eyes flickered with expectation, and said: "this time, you must have made great achievements. I will report your suggestion truthfully. Your highness will never forget your credit. "


    "Thank you for your promotion!"


    Su Hong''s face was full of excitement.


    After discussing with Su Hong, Miao Yong immediately made arrangements.


    In just three days, there was a lot of discussion. People were talking about the deposit of money in Daqin bank.


    Because Daqin bank is really reliable, Dajin bank is unreliable.


    The news all over the territory of Jin was so rampant that it even reached Yuan Shao. When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was so angry that he immediately ordered the arrest of the people who talked without permission.


    Rao is so, but it can''t stop the people''s private discussion. In particular, yuan Shaoyue was arrested, and the more control he had, the more people talked.


    Many officials of the state of Jin considered a way out.


    The rich people start to transfer their money and transfer their property to Daqin bank. After all, it''s not reliable to keep money. In case of being taxed or killed by Zhang Xiu''s army, they will break into their homes and take away their money.


    On the contrary, we should deposit all our money in the bank. Even if something happens, there will be no problem.


    Many officials, in private.


    So is the common people.


    Such a situation makes Yuan Shao even more worried.


    Yuan Shao thinks that Zhang Xiu''s offensive is coming. If Zhang Xiu is not ready to attack, he will not arrange people to spread rumors so as to deal with the people and officials under his rule. Yuan Shao''s heart is even more nervous, for fear of any trouble.


    Yuan Shao constantly sent orders to Jushu and Guo Tu to deal with them carefully.


    We have to work hard.Guo Tu is a paddle.


    In Guo Tu''s heart, he longed for Yuan Shao''s early downfall. He is now Zhang Xiu''s man. The stronger Zhang Xiu''s means against Jin, the more happy Guo Tu is. In private, Guo Tu even discussed with some officials in favor of transferring money to Daqin bank.


    Such a slight and irrefutable boost makes the situation of officialdom more and more tense.


    When the news from the royal guards is sent back to Chang''an.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news of Miao Yong, she first saw that Ju Shou might suggest Yuan Shao to ask Gongsun Zan for help. Later, she saw that Miao Yong adopted Su Hong''s strategy to incite the people and officials of Jin state to deposit their money in Daqin bank to keep it.


    These two things, Zhang Xiu quite praise.


    Especially the second one. This is the beginning of an attack on Yuan Shao and the possibility of Zhang Xiu''s attack on Yuan Shao.


    More can confuse Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue who had sent the news and said, "Miao Yong has done a good job in the state of Jin. Not only Miao Yong, but also Su Hong are quite smart. The merit they have made should be rewarded, and you should continue to do so. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Wang Yue was also happy that Miao Yong and others were rewarded.


    Because he also selected the candidates for the Jin royal guards. Now Miao Yong and others have made great contributions. As the leader of the royal guards, he has a glorious face.


    After Wang Yue retreated, Zhang Xiu read the letter again. Because in this letter, there is also something about Cao Cao''s garrison in Dongjun, who can help Yuan Shao at any time.


    "Cao Cao, you are so cautious!"


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, a brilliant light flashed. If Cao Cao sent troops on a large scale to assist Yuan Shao in the territory of Jin, the plan of raiding Cao Cao would easily succeed. But now Cao Cao only sent troops to garrison in Dongjun instead of entering the territory of Jin, which means that even if Wei was attacked, Cao Cao could rescue Xu Du at any time.


    However, it does not affect Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    No matter what, Zhang Xiu will attack Cao Cao.


    As time went by, after December, countless people deposited their money in Daqin bank. In particular, these people are from the north of Jizhou, this situation spread to Zhang Xiu''s ears, Zhang Xiu is happy.


    Time flies by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, spring has already begun, and spring ploughing season has entered.


    Early February is the time for spring ploughing and sowing. Although winter in the north is still a little cold and chilly in spring, for Zhang Xiu, it''s ready to March and fight.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for the six ministers, Sima Yi, Zhang Song and others to be called in to prepare for sending troops.


    After a year''s rest, it''s time to get ready to send troops.


    In one year, the state of Qin under Zhang Xiu has become the strongest in terms of both economic strength and military strength. Even though Cao Cao''s strength has been enhanced, it can''t catch up with Zhang Xiu''s speed. After all, the economic conditions of Wei kingdom of Cao Cao can''t keep up with Zhang Xiu''s.

 Chapter 910

    Everyone here knows that the war machine of Qin state, which has been suspended for one year, will start to work again and open the curtain of attack again. This attack is to solve the most powerful Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "last year, he had already made a plan to attack Cao Cao. So today, I will not mention it. This time we attack Cao Cao. After I leave Chang''an, I will not go straight to Nanyang County. I will go to Hongnong county first, and then to Hanoi county. "


    "This king and Ganning of Hanoi county together, turn the direction to fight into the territory of Wei."


    "The army that followed me to the North was mainly the Heishan army of Zhang Yan."


    "After Wang left with his troops, Zhang Ya led the regular army and the feiqiang army to go south to Nanyang County together with Ma Chao, where he joined Huang Zhong''s army."


    "After you arrived, Huang Zhong went south to Jiangxia. Only then can Huang Zhong surprise Liu Bei. "


    Zhang Xiu spoke with great eloquence and said, "there are two clear battlefields this time. My king pretends to attack Yuan Shao, but in fact he will turn around and attack Yanzhou East County. On the surface, the army led by Zhang Ya was a deterrent to Cao Cao. In fact, it had to attract all Cao Cao''s troops to compete with Cao Cao''s army, so as to facilitate Huang Zhong''s surprise attack. "


    "In this battle, the three armies attacked Cao Cao."


    "This battle must be quick!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "if we win this battle, then we will be able to dominate the world in the near future. Therefore, this battle depends on the concerted efforts of all of you. "


    All of us should go down together.


    There was a look of excitement on each face.


    As the core group of Zhang Xiu, they are looking forward to the coming war one by one. Because everyone knows that in the next battle, as long as Cao Cao is eliminated, Zhang Xiu will win the world. And they are the ministers of the dragon. This is a rare opportunity in a century.


    Zhang Xiu said again, "Sima Yi!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Sima Yi stood up immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ve ordered you to be the commander of Feixiong army. You''ll go south as fast as you can and join Huang Zhong. Then he assisted Huang Zhong to send troops from Jiangxia to attack Yuzhou to attack the rear of Liu Bei. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi immediately responded.


    Sima Yi was very happy about Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. Because now he''s on his own and helping Huang Zhong fight is his chance to show his talent.


    Zhang Xiu added: "Jia Xu, Pang Tong!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Jia Xu and Pang Tong should join hands, and both of them set out to salute.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Jia Xu is the left army commander, Pang Tong is the right army commander, and Zhang Ya, Ma Chao, and a Guli are going south together. They attack Yuzhou from Nanyang County, enter Yingchuan County, approach Xudu, and face Cao Cao''s army."


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu and Pang Tong should go down together.


    Both of them are very clear that this is the most crucial battle, so let Jia Xu and Pang Tong help Zhang Yan at the same time.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Li Ru, Zhang song!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Li Ru and Zhang Songqi came out together.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you two, together with the king, go north to Hanoi county and go to the fierce tiger army."


    "Here it is


    Li Ru and Zhang song also responded.


    After the arrangement, Zhang Xiu looked at the others and said, "headed by Xu Shu, he is in charge of all matters in the rear of Chang''an. During his absence, Xu Shu was in full charge of government affairs. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu bowed himself to answer.


    Xu Shu is used to his task. After all, all these years Zhang Xiu''s expeditions were made by him, which is also the most familiar thing for him.


    Zhang xiudao said, "let''s get busy."


    "Here it is


    When they were ordered to stop wasting time, they turned and stepped down. After everyone left, Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard, met Huang Yueying and other women, and told them about leaving.


    After arranging things in the backyard, Zhang Xiu left the backyard and was ready to start. However, when Zhang Xiu went northward, she did not hide her whereabouts. She went northward with great fanfare.


    The news spread out in the shortest time, to the state of Wei and Jin.


    Cao Cao was the first to get the news.


    When he got the news, he called Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu to tell him the news of Zhang Xiu''s going north. Then he said, "Zhang Xiu went north to Hanoi County in a big way, but he also arranged Zhang Ya as a general to lead his troops to Nanyang County."


    "It seems that Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong will join together to set up troops at our border to frighten us or attack us. But when Zhang Xiu went north to Hanoi County, he should attack Yuan Shao. "


    Cao Cao said: "now we can''t say whether Zhang Xiu''s army will attack us?"


    Xun you said: "Your Highness, as long as Zhang Xiu doesn''t invade the state of Jin for one day, his movement can''t be determined for one day. So I think it''s still in accordance with the previous plan. We must guard against Zhang Xiu and be careful of her army. "


    After a pause, Xun you said: "of course, on the surface, Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed at our border to frighten us, and Zhang Xiu is going to attack Yuan Shao, but actually he can''t predict."Guo Jia echoed: "what Gongda said is true. For the time being, let''s wait and see. What''s more, if Zhang Xiuzhen and Yuan Shao go to war, we will use Yuan Shao''s power to weaken Zhang Xiu. No matter what, we will use static braking for the time being. "


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard and said, "now we just need to protect ourselves."


    All the people hold the same opinion.


    After hearing this, Cao Cao stopped worrying and acted according to his current plan. Cao Cao is now ready, but when the news of Zhang Xiu''s going north reaches Yuan Shao in Yecheng, Yuan Shao becomes nervous.


    Here we go!


    Zhang Xiu''s army is coming!


    Yuan Shao knew that facing Zhang Xiu''s attack, he had to resist with all his strength. He asked Jushi to mobilize the army, and then he personally led the expedition. He took Jushi, Guotu, Shenpei and others to the border to settle down.


    Yuan Shao had about 80000 troops.


    This is his main force.


    In the past six months, because of the Dajin bank, the popular sentiment collapsed. It was not easy for Yuan Shao to recruit soldiers. It was not easy to maintain a troop of 80000 people.


    After all, Yuan Shao''s financial resources are limited.


    Yuan Shao sits on the border, has been paying close attention to the trend of Zhang Xiu, is very nervous. At the same time, Yuan Shao arranged envoys to go to the East County bordering Jizhou to urge Cao Cao''s troops stationed at the border to enter Jizhou and prepare to resist with Yuan Shao.


    However, Cao Jun did not move.


    Yuan Shao is helpless to see this.


    He can''t command Cao Cao''s army, especially now Cao Cao''s strength is stronger than Yuan Shao. In Yuan Shao''s uneasiness, Zhang Xiu went north to Hanoi County, came to the northern border of Hanoi County, and arrived at Ganning and Chen''s camp.


    In the accounts of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the main seat, and everyone below takes their own seats.


    Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Li Ru, Zhang Yan and Zhang song took their seats respectively.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and Chen Dao and asked, "how about Yuan Shao''s troops at the border?"


    Gan Ning explained: "Your Highness, Yuan Shao''s troops are about 80000 now. Not only that, Yuan Shao extensively built fortifications, dug soil, rammed high walls, and then defended. Now Yuan Shao''s posture is not to fight, but to be ready to defend for a long time. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao was scared out of his wits and did not dare to take the initiative to fight again. Every time he takes the initiative to fight, and our contest, he is defeated in the end


    Gan Ning said, "Your Highness, we are going to attack Cao Cao. How can we attack now?"


    Last year, we made a plan to deal with Cao Cao.


    Ganning knows.


    He agreed with the plan because Yuan Shao''s strength was weak and there was not much threat. If even Cao Cao was exterminated, it would be easy to deal with Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 911

    Zhang xiudao said: "this time, we mainly went south from dangyin County, then from Chaoge to Dongjun County, attacked Baima County in Dongjun County, and won the bridgehead to Dongjun county. In this war, we need to be quick. But before that, there''s one thing to do. "


    Ganning said, "Your Highness, please tell me!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "arrange a young general to go to Yuan Shao''s camp at the border and send a message to let Yuan Shao surrender."


    Gan Ning thought in his heart and said, "Your Highness, according to your way, Yuan Shao must be angry. However, the news of his Highness''s withdrawal will not be concealed in the end. We are going to provoke now. Yuan Shao is very angry. If he leads his troops to kill after his highness leaves, how can we resist then? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "this matter is expected."


    "First of all, you are the only one who is going south with me. The elite of Langya camp led by Chen Zhi is still stationed in dangyin County for the time being, and will not withdraw. "


    "Second, yuan Shaozi is suspicious. I specially sent people to threaten him in advance, and then quietly led the troops to leave afterwards. Even if Yuan Shao got the news, he must have mistakenly thought that we might be plotting against him, and there was an ambush waiting for him. "


    "So Chen is enough to guard."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what''s more, Chen Dao has the elite of Langya camp. Even if Yuan Shao sent a small group of soldiers to test, he came to die. When he really finds out that we have entered Dongjun, Yuan Shao will have no courage to fight again. "


    Ganning said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Chen Dao said, "I''ll arrange people for my humble position, and let them spread the word."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    When the event went on, Zhang Xiu did not stay. She immediately left dangyin county with the fierce tiger army under Ganning and headed for Chaoge County in the south. In this action, the whereabouts were hidden, but not exposed.


    Instead of staying in Chaoge County, the army went straight to Baima County in Dongjun county.


    Baima county is adjacent to Hanoi county.


    This is the bridgehead of Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    In March, Zhang Xiu''s army took advantage of the mild weather and rushed to Baima county. Even if Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts were hidden, his whereabouts were eventually discovered. Cao Jun''s sentry rushed to Baima county to inform the magistrate of Baima county to prepare to resist.


    At the same time, Cao Jun''s sentinel reported the news quickly. When Zhang Xiu clearly wanted to attack Yuan Shao, she suddenly came to Yanzhou and Wei. The situation was extremely critical, so the sentinel who went back to send the message was very anxious.


    When Cao Jun spies and discovers Zhang Xiu''s trend, Yuan Shao gets the news that Zhang Xiu is ordered to surrender.


    This news, Chen to is lets the human use the bow and arrow to shoot into the note.


    After all, when Qin and Jin were enemies, they sent envoys to baobuqi and Yuan Shao detained them or even slaughtered them. So Chen let his school bring people close to him and sent messages with bows and arrows and notes.


    Yuan Shao called together Ju Shi, Guo Tu and Shen Pei, looked around them and said, "Zhang Xiu, do you really think I will be afraid of him? I have arranged for someone to shoot a note and order me to surrender. Even though Zhang Xiu has a strong army, I will choose to fight to the end. What''s more, now Zhang Xiu has only two armies, the liehu army and the Langya camp. We are not afraid of Zhang Xiu. "


    As the emperor of Jin, Yuan Shao had the best meat, the best wine and the most beautiful women.


    Once you surrender, there''s nothing left.


    Yuan Shao didn''t want to, so it was absolutely impossible for him to surrender.


    Yuan Shao continued: "now that Zhang Xiu has arrived at the border, although China''s Jin side has been sticking to it, we must be careful even if we stick to it. Do you have a plan to break the enemy in the next situation? "


    Although Yuan Shao himself has always stuck to the principle. But in fact, he wanted to break the enemy.


    It''s the same with people.


    It is impossible to be satisfied with the status quo.


    Jushi zhengse said: "Your Majesty, let''s confront Zhang Xiu first. When Zhang Xiu''s army comes, he wants to fight us head-on, we will fight head-on. In the battle, we are looking for a good opportunity to defeat Zhang Xiu. Now it''s almost difficult to make a plan to defeat Zhang Xiu. Unless we leave the fortifications we are building and take the initiative to attack. "


    "Of course, we can''t take the initiative."


    Yuan Shao didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly. He was also clear about his own situation. He is now able to defend mainly, only on the basis of defense, he wants to win.


    He wanted revenge.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there were sentinels outside the Chinese Army''s tent. The sentinel knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, the latest news about Zhang Xiu is coming back. Today, Zhang Xiu appears in Dongjun. "


    Yuan Shao''s neck stretched forward, and his face looked surprised.


    Zhang Xiu went to Dongjun?


    No way.


    Zhang Xiuming is in dangyin County, and is preparing to attack him with a large army. Just a moment ago, he just received the bow and arrow from the other side and asked him to surrender. But in the twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu was already in Dongjun. It was really strange.


    As soon as Yuan Shao waved, he took the letter and quickly read it.


    After Yuan Shao finished reading it, he looked at three people, Jushi, Guotu and Shenpei, and said, "the letter says that Zhang Xiu has just entered Dongjun with a large army. It happened that our sentinel was also at the border of Dongjun, staring at Cao Jun''s action, so he sent back the news at the first time. If not, it is impossible to know the news. Zhang Xiu''s army went straight to Baima county. What shall we do? "At this moment, Yuan Shao had other thoughts.


    Zhang Xiu is gone. What are you afraid of?


    Yuan Shao is not afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty, is there any conspiracy in Zhang Xiu''s arrangement?"


    When Yuan Shaoyi heard Guo Tu''s words, he shivered and said, "yes, yes, what Guo Tu said is reasonable. Zhang Xiu is always very cunning. There is probably something fishy in his doing so. What do you think, juqing? "


    Guo Tu shook his head when he saw Yuan Shao''s fear.


    This is Yuan Shao.


    Today''s Yuan Shao has long lost his heroic spirit. When Guo Tu didn''t submit to Zhang Xiu, he was subordinate to Yuan Shao and was in awe of Yuan Shao.


    Up to now, he has quietly turned to Zhang Xiu and become a person of Zhang Xiu. Naturally, he has less awe for Yuan Shao and more objective evaluation. Therefore, the more he looks on, the less he looks down on Yuan Shao.


    However, Guo Tu didn''t get Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. He didn''t know Zhang Xiu''s intention. He could only act according to circumstances.


    Ju zhengse said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Guo Tu''s analysis. Zhang Xiu is a man who never gets up early for nothing. Since he dared to leave dangyin County, I''m afraid he left some means behind. It''s not appropriate for us to attack Zhang Xiu with all our strength. "


    Yuan Shao nodded in agreement.


    Guo Tu took the words and continued: "but it''s not appropriate to ignore it. After all, Zhang Xiu has already left with the army, leaving an army in dangyin county. If we don''t move, aren''t we afraid of Zhang Xiu? "


    After thinking for a while, he analyzed: "I think that Zhang Xiu''s intention is to attack Cao Cao, not Jin. Zhang Xiu stationed at the border with a small number of troops to contain his Majesty''s army. "


    "Then, Zhang Xiu went straight to Wei."


    "Cao Cao is in danger."


    "But we are restrained, and it is impossible to divide our forces to rescue Cao Cao."


    Ju zhengse said: "Your Majesty, this is the intention of Zhang Xiu, your Majesty''s lesson."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao looked approvingly and said again, "Guo Tu, what do you think?"


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty, I agree with your analysis."


    At this time, Guo Tu agreed.


    The reason is very simple, he did not receive the news of Zhang Xiu, just like this, Zhang Xiu is very likely not to deal with Yuan Shao. If Zhang Xiu wants to attack Yuan Shao, it is impossible not to arrange someone to contact him.


    Yuan Shao turned his eyes, thought about it, and said, "as Guo tugang just said, it''s not proper not to act. I plan to arrange a small group of soldiers to go to dangyin County for a trial. If we join Zhang Xiu''s troops in dangyin County, it''s a vanity. We can fight in dangyin county and get revenge. "


    Guo Tu said: "but if the other side really has ambush?"


    In the current situation, Guo Tu doesn''t want Yuan Shao to test anything. He is worried that Zhang Xiuzhen has transferred the army.


    He has to think about Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao snorted and confidently said, "even if there are ambushes, there are still a small number of troops going. If they can evacuate in time, it will have no impact on our country. It''s settled. "


    Now when Yuan Shao heard that Zhang Xiu had gone away, he had a lot of courage and felt that his waist could be straight.


    Guo Tu boasted: "Your Majesty has made a decision. I agree with you. However, I suggest that we should be careful. "


    "So it is


    Yuan Shao nodded and answered.


    "My father, my son is willing to lead the army to the test."


    At this time, Yuan Xi took the initiative to stand up and fight. Now, as the prince, Yuan Shang stayed in Yecheng to supervise the state. Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Shao, was with him.


    Yuan Xi couldn''t be the crown prince, so he also wanted to build up some meritorious deeds, so as to get Yuan Shao''s favor. At least when Yuan Shao was in a good mood, he could choose a better place for him when he was in a good mood.


    This is what Yuan Xi thought.


    Yuan Shao stroked his beard and said, "it''s good that Xi''er can take the initiative to go there! I''ll give you three thousand elite soldiers. After you leave the camp, you''ll go quietly to dangyin county. You take the soldiers and try each other''s situation quietly. But be careful. "


    "Here it is


    Yuan Xi immediately responded.


    After Yuan Shao settled the matter, he waved his hand and asked the people to step down.


    Guo Tu went back to his camp and quickly arranged for someone to write a letter, calling for him to follow him. This is the person who specially contacts with the royal guards and belongs to Guo Tu''s absolute confidant.


    Guo Tu asked people to send out the news to inform the royal guards.


    That''s the limit he can do.


    After everything is done, Guo Tu no longer does more things, but deals with the things in his hands.

 Chapter 912

    Dangyin County, Chen to the military station.


    Today''s Chen Dao, sitting in the camp, is bored and has nothing to do. After all, in the current situation, Chen Dao''s main task is to stay here and be responsible for deterring Yuan Shao.


    Chen Dao was not idle, training soldiers all day, training the combat effectiveness of Langya camp. When Chen Dao was training his soldiers, a sentinel quickly entered and came to Chen Dao''s side. He reported: "general, there is a royal guards outside the camp. They said they have the latest news."


    "Please


    Chen Dao gave a direct order.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, the royal guards are all over the country and well-informed. Most of the wars were spread by the royal guards. As soon as Chen Zhi heard that the royal guards were coming, he cheered up and went straight back to the Chinese army.


    When Chen came back to the Chinese Army''s tent, the royal guards in black Samurai clothes followed him. They looked solemn and said, "General Chen, there is news from Guo Tu, saying that the news is very important."


    After Chen Dao picked it up, he took it apart and looked at it. After reading the contents of the letter, he smiles and says, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    The royal guards turned and stepped down.


    In Chen''s mind, it was planning.


    The letter sent by Guo Tu tells about Yuan Xi and the troops under his command. Now Yuan Xi leads 3000 troops to test, this is the chance to win Yuan Xi.


    Only Zhang Xiu, the six ministers and the generals of the army knew about Guo Tu''s surrender, but the rest did not. Just so, Chen Dao knew about Guo Tu.


    "Somebody


    Chen Dao gave an order.


    When the soldiers entered, Chen Zhi immediately said, "pass the order and gather the generals."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    After a while, all the generals in the army gathered together.


    Chen Dao looked around at all the generals and said, "I just got the news that Yuan Xi, the second son of Yuan Shao, is leading 3000 soldiers to try our reality. This time, we will capture all the 3000 people, including Yuan Xi, alive. "


    "Command, general!"


    One of the generals spoke.


    "Command, general!"


    "Command, general!"


    ¡­¡­


    The chief generals in the army spoke one after another, and all their faces were full of fighting spirit. For them, although they have not been able to go south with the king of Qin to attack Cao Cao, Yuan Shao''s people will have to prove themselves through this battle.


    Chen Dao asked people to get the map, hung it on the wall, pointed to the map, and said, "the news is sent back as quickly as possible. It is roughly estimated that Yuan Xi has not entered the territory of dangyin county."


    "Well, we''ll ambush at niufushan."


    "Niufu mountain is not steep, but at least in March and April, there are countless grass on the mountain, which can make our soldiers hide in it. The road at the foot of niufu mountain was the only place Yuan Xi had to pass


    "Our army, ambush in the mountains."


    "Not only that, there are ambushes around."


    Chen Dao said: "as soon as Yuan Xi entered niufu mountain, he surrounded Yuan Xi and forced him to land. This battle must be won by a large number of people and all of them. "


    "Do you have confidence?"


    Chen Dao asked aloud.


    "Yes!"


    All the generals, answer.


    The expression on each face was full of excitement and joy. For them, it''s not a challenge, but it''s better than staying in the camp to practice. It''s also going out for the wind.


    Chen Dao nodded, with a look of approval on his face.


    He immediately began to arrange.


    After all the orders were given, Chen Zhi said, "we will send troops tonight, leaving more than 1000 soldiers to guard the camp and take charge of daily patrol. In this battle, we must win gracefully. "


    "Here it is


    All of them should go down.


    Chen Dao waved his hand, everyone back down.


    That night, Chen Dao and all his soldiers quietly left the camp and went to the location of niufu mountain. The distance from the barracks to niufushan is only about three hours, even if we travel at night.


    Chen Dao and his party were stationed separately.


    Everyone will rest where they are.


    The next morning, Chen Dao was still hiding in the niufu mountain. In the early spring morning, it is still cold, but when the sun rises, the golden eyes fall down and shine on people, making them warm and comfortable.


    Chen Dao is waiting quietly.


    Towards noon, the sentinel quietly returned. The sentinel came to Chen Dao and reported: "general, we have found the location of Yuan Jun. Now the 3000 yuan soldiers who sneak into dangyin county are only eight miles away from us, hiding in the forest eight miles northwest of us. For the time being, the other side didn''t go on"Oh, this is to hide the whereabouts!"


    Chen to smell speech, immediately laughed.


    If there is no news of Guo Tu''s early return, even if he arranges sentinel to observe the situation in various places, he will not find the other party. It''s hard to find the whereabouts of the other party because they travel in daytime and night.


    Unfortunately, there was news from Guo Tu, so Chen Dao knew that Yuan Xi had come.


    In the early days, they arranged for sentinel to inquire, and they had already opened a big net, waiting for Yuan Xi to take the initiative to send them to the door. While Chen Dao was waiting, Yuan Xi was hiding. He was leading the soldiers to hide. Then everyone began to rest.


    Day ambush and night travel, during the day, we have to cultivate enough spirit.


    Towards evening, Yuan Xi regained his spirits, let his soldiers eat dry food, and then took advantage of the setting sun to continue on his way. Along the way, the soldiers in the front of the army were carrying a few sparse torches. There were also several torches in the middle and at the end of the army, but there were no more torches.


    This is to hide the whereabouts!


    If you are burning a lot of torches, there will be too much noise. There are only about ten torches in the army, so even if the soldiers are on their way at night, they are inconspicuous from a distance and not easy to be targeted.


    Wearing armour, Yuan Xi was the one who drove his horse to the front.


    He didn''t go fast or slow.


    After all, this visit was just a test of the Qin army''s reality, and there was no plan to defeat the other side. In his heart, Yuan Xi just wanted to make a little contribution, to ensure that he would not lose face, to ensure that he could be king, and to have a good throne, that would be enough.


    The distance of eight miles is not long.


    Yuan Xi led his soldiers into the area where niufu mountain was located.


    All of you are going along the road at the foot of the mountain. The mountain on both sides of niufu mountain official road is not steep. It looks like a slope. Such a place, Yuan Xi did not doubt, do not think there will be ambush. What''s more, he came all day and all night, hiding his whereabouts all the time, and could not be found.


    This is the strength of Yuan Xi.


    Therefore, Yuan Xi has always been extremely confident.


    Yuan Xi, with his soldiers, is still on his way. Just as they were all at the foot of niufu mountain, Chen Zhi on the mountain ordered, "light the fire!"


    The order was given, and the soldiers quickly lit the torch.


    Whoo! Hoo!!!


    A torch, fast burning.


    On both sides of the hillside, the fire burned, dispelling the darkness. Not only that, the soldiers of Langya camp began to get close to the road at the foot of the mountain.


    On both sides of the mountain, there are fires burning.


    With the fire burning on both sides, the mountain fire dispelled the darkness, and soldiers appeared around niufushan official road, blocking Yuan Xi''s retreat and route.


    Chen Dao''s soldiers surrounded Yuan Xi.


    Looking at Yuan Xi''s army trapped at the foot of the mountain and surrounded by groups, Chen Zhi came down with a gun and said, "Yuan Xi, General Chen Dao, led 20000 troops. I''ve been waiting here for a long time. Your 3000 soldiers are completely surrounded. Now lay down your arms and surrender, otherwise, there will be no amnesty! "


    The profound and bright words were clearly introduced into Yuan Xi''s ears.


    Yuan Xi''s heart, click, then sink to the bottom. Because he heard what Chen Zhi called him. In addition, Chen Zhi knew the number of troops under his command.


    Most importantly, Chen came with 20000 people.


    It is totally impossible for him to fight against 20000 of his 3000 soldiers.


    It''s over!


    Yuan Xi sighed in his heart.

 Chapter 913

    Yuan Xi watched the fire around him getting closer and closer, and watched the soldiers of the Qin army getting closer and closer. He wants to break through, but the problem is that the other side is strong and strong, and it is extremely difficult for him to retreat.


    What to do?


    Yuan Xi''s heart is still at a loss.


    He wants to escape from the current situation, but the reality is that he can only face all this.


    "Second highness, we can''t escape."


    Beside Yuan Xi, a general came to remind him. There was a look of panic in the general''s eyes, and he said: "second highness, Chen Dao is the general under Zhang Xiu''s command and the commander of Langya camp. He is very powerful. We can''t beat such a strong general. We can''t stop this war. Let''s go down. "


    "Second highness, let''s go down!"


    The rest of the people spoke.


    One by one, the main generals in the army had no idea of resistance and suggested that Yuan Xi surrender.


    This made Yuan Xi''s heart sink.


    The situation is unfavourable. If the generals under his command are willing to fight to the death, then they have a chance to protect him and break through. The key is that all the generals of the Jin Dynasty were scared to death. They had no fighting spirit to retreat and no courage to fight. How could they escape?


    Knowing that he could not escape, Yuan Xi ordered, "throw away your weapons and surrender!"


    As soon as he spoke, countless people cried out for surrender.


    The generals in the army, as well as the soldiers in the army, all quickly threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender.


    No one is willing to resist.


    Yuan Xi looked at the soldiers and knelt down one after another. He sighed in his heart. He no longer insisted. He knelt down on the ground and asked Chen to surrender. However, he was in a sad mood. Once, his elder brother Yuan Tan was a prisoner of Zhang Xiu. Now, he once again becomes Zhang Xiu''s prisoner.


    After a while, Chen Dao gathered with the soldiers of Langya camp and looked at a group of Jin soldiers kneeling on the ground. His eyes wandered and fell on Yuan Xi.


    Compared with other people''s clothes, Yuan Xi''s top armor, and a pair of silver armor, silver helmet, is very conspicuous.


    You can see it at a glance.


    Chen Dao said, "which is Yuan Xi, stand up!"


    "I am!"


    Yuan Xi looked embarrassed, got up and walked forward two steps, bowing his body, a look of uneasiness.


    As soon as Chen Dao waved his hand, some soldiers came forward and took Yuan Xi into custody. In a short time, Chen Dao mobilized his soldiers to move quickly, collected all the weapons of Yuan''s soldiers, and detained 3000 yuan''s soldiers.


    Everyone is under control.


    "Stop!"


    At the command of Chen Dao, his troops returned along the road at the foot of niufu mountain. When they arrived at the camp, they were all close to dawn. After all, they were holding the prisoners, and the speed of their journey was much slower.


    After Chen Dao settled all the prisoners, on the one hand, he sent people to report the good news to Zhang Xiu; on the other hand, he arranged people to send the news to Yuan Shao''s barracks to spread the news of Yuan Xi''s capture.


    The spread of the news only said that Yuan Xi was captured, but the specific situation of the war was not disclosed.


    Yuan Shao first got the news that Yuan Xi had been arrested, and his face suddenly collapsed.


    Another one!


    He had another son, who fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Yuan Shao called Ju Shi, Guo Tu, and Shen Pei, biting his teeth and saying, "now, Xi''er is in the hands of the Qin army. Chen Dao, who was stationed in dangyin County, just spread the news, but didn''t ask for anything, and didn''t attack. You say, "what does he want to do?"


    Ju said: "Your Majesty, I guess the reason why Chen Dao did this is to hold down our army. Now Zhang Xiu goes all out to attack Cao Cao, and Chen Dao tells us not to act rashly. "


    Guo TU was happy in his heart.


    Yuan Xi''s arrest is not in vain for his information.


    This is good for Zhang Xiu.


    That is to say, although he is still under the command of Yuan Shao, he has made a great contribution to Zhang Xiu once again.


    Guo Tu said: "Your Majesty, when the second prince was captured, I think of the situation when the great prince fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu in the past. Although we haven''t been against Zhang Xiu yet, the next time we fight against Zhang Xiu, there will be not only the second prince, but also Fengji. It''s hard for us to make a choice. "


    Yuan Shao''s mouth twitched.


    He has never considered the matter of Fengji. If he doesn''t, he won''t feel a headache. But when you think of Fengji, it''s very tricky. Now there is another Yuan Xi.


    Yuan Shao said, "Guo Tu, what can you do?"


    Guo Tu asked: "the humble proposal is, can we change back to Fengji and the second prince?"


    Yuan shaodao: "Zhang Xiu will not agree."


    Guo Tu said: "as long as the interests given are enough, Zhang Xiu may not be willing. We can send someone to contact Zhang Xiu. When we attack Cao Cao this time, we don''t interfere in the war, but Zhang Xiu releases the second prince and Feng Ji. "


    "No way!"


    Jushi retorted and said, "Mr. Guo, why Zhang Xiu arranged for Chen to be stationed in dangyin county is to prevent us from rushing south to help Cao Cao. Once we send troops, Chen Dao is bound to attack Jin. In particular, the people of Jin are in dire straits. Although there are still more than 100000 troops, their combat effectiveness is actually insufficient. "Yuan Shao said, "what juqing said is true."


    In today''s situation, Yuan Shao knows that it is difficult to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. It was not only Yuan Xi and Feng Ji, but also Zhang Xiu''s own strength.


    Guo Tu flashed a light in his eyes and immediately said: "Your Majesty, since it is such a situation. Does his majesty think that Cao Cao can resist Zhang Xiu''s attack in the end? "


    Yuan Shao hesitated a moment later and said, "maybe Cao Cao can''t carry it."


    Indeed, Zhang Xiu has made great achievements in the war.


    Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and even Liu Bei were all defeated by Zhang Xiu. Therefore, when Cao Cao faced Zhang Xiu alone, Yuan Shao was not optimistic.


    Guo Tu said: "since your majesty also thinks that Cao Cao can''t bear it, why should we help him when he is obviously defeated? Why not arrange an alliance with Zhang Xiu and ask Zhang Xiu to release the second prince and Yuan Xi. "


    "In addition, we also attacked Cao Cao and got a piece of it."


    "If Cao Cao can resist, we don''t need to help Zhang Xiu, and we don''t need a share. In the case that we can''t help Cao Cao and he will lose, if we let him go, Zhang Xiu is bound to annex Cao Cao''s territory. "


    "It''s not good for us."


    Guo Tu zhengse way: "so humble proposal, we get involved in the battlefield, share a piece of the cake, strengthen their own strength?"


    Yuan Shao''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    It seems that there is a certain truth in Guo Tu''s words, which is a very normal thing.


    Guo Tu looked at Yuan Shao expectantly. He hoped that Yuan Shao would agree. Because once Yuan Shao got involved in the war of Wei state and helped Zhang Xiu quickly divide up Cao Cao''s strength, it would be easy for Zhang Xiu to destroy Yuan Shao after Zhang Xiu destroyed Cao Cao.


    This is Guo Tu''s plan.


    But he could see clearly, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty can''t!"


    Yuan Shao said, "juqing, why?"


    Ju said: "Your Majesty, once you deal with Cao Cao, you will be killed. Originally, Cao Cao might be able to block Zhang Xiu''s army, but in the case of our intervention, Cao Cao will surely lose. Once Cao Cao is eliminated, we can''t resist Zhang Xiu. Guo Tu''s words seem reasonable, but in fact, they are drinking poison to quench thirst, and even deceiving themselves. "


    Guo Tu said: "can we just watch Zhang Xiu destroy Cao Cao?"


    Ju said: "the war has just begun, but it is not yet known. What''s more, it''s not so easy for Zhang Xiu to wipe out Cao Cao. Just watch the change for a while. "


    Yuan Shao was more trusting of Jushou. Seeing that he insisted on it, he was also inclined to it. So he ordered, "it''s OK. I''ll just wait and see for a while. As for Xi''er and Feng Ji, they don''t care for the time being. There is no need to talk about it any more. "


    "Here it is


    When they heard this, they stopped arguing.


    Guo TU was disappointed. Once yuan Shaozhen got involved in the war of Wei, it would be interesting.


    Unfortunately, Yuan Shao did not participate.

 Chapter 914

    Zhang Xiu''s army, close to Baima County, the speed of the troops as fast as lightning, without the slightest stagnation. However, when Zhang Xiu''s army approached Baima County, a sentinel sent back news that Cao Jun had killed him in Puyang County, which was adjacent to Baima county.


    This Cao army has a total of 30000 elites, and its combat effectiveness is extremely strong.


    The leader of the army was harhoughton.


    The present XiahouDun is not only blind in one eye, but also short of an arm. But XiahouDun''s momentum did not diminish at all, and he even led the army to fight.


    Soldiers in the army practice, so does he.


    He shared weal and woe with the soldiers in the army.


    In this way, all the soldiers in the army were also convinced of Houghton.


    Zhang Xiu''s original intention was to attack Baima county directly and seize Baima County as his bridgehead against Cao Cao. But XiahouDun led the troops to kill, and Zhang Xiu adjusted her tactics. Instead of attacking Baima County, she went straight to XiahouDun.


    The significance of destroying XiahouDun is greater than seizing Baima county.


    XiahouDun is a big fish.


    When Zhang Xiu goes to the direction where Xia Houdun is, she receives the message from Chen Dao. Zhang Xiu is very happy to learn that Chen Zhi captured Yuan Xi alive and 3000 yuan soldiers.


    Under such a premise, it is impossible for Yuan Shao to send troops to support Cao Cao for Yuan Xi''s safety.


    Now that Zhang Xiu is at war with Cao Cao, she is as steady as a mountain. After Zhang Xiu exterminates Cao Cao, he will attack Yuan Shao again. Even if Yuan Shao can get Gongsun Zan''s support, he will be helpless.


    This is a grand trend.


    Zhang Xiu no longer worry, the army is full speed.


    The army was mighty, and the distance between it and XiahouDun was getting closer and closer. When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than ten miles, Zhang Xiu deliberately slowed down the speed of driving, so that the cavalry and infantry in the army could slow down and take a rest to recover their combat effectiveness.


    The army is still on its way.


    Ten miles!


    Bali road!


    Liuli road!


    ¡­¡­


    The distance is getting shorter.


    On the other side, XiahouDun, too, was leading a charge. His 30000 men, all elite of the state of Wei, were stationed in Puyang County on the border of Dongjun County, ready to deal with the situation at any time.


    Xia Houdun''s original intention was to help Yuan Shao resist Zhang Xiu in the territory of Jin. However, he didn''t expect to attack Zhang Dongxiu.


    This matter cannot be ignored by harhoughton.


    Especially others and Zhang Xiu, there is more hatred. Although XiahouDun''s intention of killing was boiling, he wanted to kill Zhang Xiu. But when I got the news from Zhang Xiu, I didn''t lose my mind. First, I calmly investigated the situation and understood Zhang Xiu''s situation.


    He learned that Zhang Xiu only had more than 30000 fierce tiger troops, so he had the idea of fighting with Zhang Xiu.


    The same 30000 people, he is not afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    In this war, he has to be more shameful.


    Charlotte Houghton now rode on one arm, but he ran on horseback like anyone else. Even in case of fighting, he can hold the horse''s belly with his legs, stand firmly on the horse''s back, and then fight directly with the enemy.


    This is the confidence of harhoudun.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than three miles, the heart of XiahouDun was already beating. On that rough cheek, it was even more red, and there was a strong sense of killing in the eyes.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    When the army led by Xia Houdun and Zhang Xiu met, Xia Houdun had no extra words. He pointed to Zhang Xiu''s army in front of him with a knife and ordered: "kill!"


    With a command, Cao Jun killed.


    One by one, Cao''s soldiers rushed forward. At the front was the infantry, and the cavalry under shahhoudun began to diverge, to make a detour on both sides, ready to attack the two wings of the fierce tigers.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "Ganning, you lead 5000 cavalry to meet Cao''s cavalry on the left."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to send troops directly.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "shamoko, you lead 5000 cavalry to meet Cao''s cavalry on the right."


    "Here it is


    Shamoko was carrying the bone of Tribulus terrestris, and his face was happy. He looked at the cavalry killed by the right wing, grinned, waved and left with the army.


    Two cavalry respectively to meet, Zhang Xiu led the infantry attack at full speed.


    This attack, no longer stay.


    It''s about going all out.


    It''s late, it''s fast, it''s not long, the two sides are close.


    If you look down in the air, you can see that in this open field, dense villains are constantly narrowing the distance between the two sides. A moment later, the two sides have been fighting together.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu drinks low, Overlord gun swings to sweep.


    When he rode alone, it was like a sharp cone, moving forward quickly. In addition, Zhang Xiu is accompanied by Wang Yue and Deng Zhan, all of whom are highly effective.No one can beat him where he has passed.


    XiahouDun was in the rear command of the town. He saw the location of Zhang Xiu. But he did not dare to go up, let alone he now broke an arm, even if his arms intact, it is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    So XiahouDun did not rush up.


    He can only rely on his soldiers.


    Xia Houdun hid himself in the army, quickly mobilized his soldiers to fight Zhang Xiu. When he finds Zhang Xiu, he will kill her. As long as Zhang Xiu dies on the battlefield, Zhang Xiu''s fierce tiger army will lose its backbone and will not attack itself.


    It was the will of harhoughton.


    "Up, up for me, kill Zhang Xiu."


    XiahouDun kept giving orders.


    More and more soldiers went to the place where Zhang Xiu was. Around Zhang Xiu, there seems to be a meat grinder. Countless Cao troops gather here, and countless Qin soldiers fight here.


    More and more people are killed and injured.


    Bodies fell down, soldiers wailed, blood splashed, and the air smelled of blood.


    Fighting on the battlefield, constantly entangled.


    Time, a little bit of passage, half an hour fleeting, fighting both sides from the beginning of anxiety, gradually, to now the scale of victory began to tilt to Zhang Xiu side.


    Zhang Xiu''s cavalry has begun to dominate. In particular, Ganning and shamoko, each leading the battle, made no progress, and there was no Cao cavalry to resist.


    "Kill, defeat Cao Jun!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered, with a cold look. He glanced at the battlefield, and the soldiers under his command had gained the upper hand.


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of the trumpet, one after another.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, constantly forward. For a time, Cao''s soldiers began to retreat, constantly retreating, unable to stop the offensive of Qin''s soldiers.


    XiahouDun was livid, clenched his fist, and his face was full of reluctance.


    Lost!


    Lost again!


    The same 30000 people, the same number of soldiers, but to fight on the battlefield, his soldiers, Zhang Xiu''s army can not bear the attack, which is not reconciled to Xia Houdun.


    "Block it, block it for me!"


    XiahouDun kept giving orders to cheer up his soldiers.


    Rao is so, but also can not stop the decadent trend of Cao Jun. The situation on the battlefield is still collapsing. With the passage of time, the scale of the rout became larger and larger, and the forces of XiahouDun could not bear the attack.


    "General, I can''t keep it. Retreat."


    At the side of XiahouDun, one of the generals suggested, and there was even a nervous look on his face. Because once they are defeated on a large scale, it will be difficult for them to withdraw.


    Now the fighting is not at its worst, it can be resisted and there is room for retreat.


    It''s time to retreat.

 Chapter 915

    The rest of the generals under the command of XiahouDun, whose faces were full of worry, urged XiahouDun to withdraw immediately. After all, the current situation is quite obvious.


    If we delay further, we will lose.


    Not even on their own.


    XiahouDun was not a man of indecision. The current situation was really beyond his control. He decisively ordered: "withdraw, withdraw immediately, we return to Puyang County at full speed."


    Puyang County is a strong city.


    As long as he returned to Puyang County, XiahouDun could take charge of the city.


    The army quickly withdrew and was no longer warlike.


    However, as soon as the Cao soldiers under XiahouDun withdrew, there was no resistance, and they were completely covered up by the Qin soldiers. Especially on this battlefield, there are also the cavalry of the fierce tiger army.


    On the boundless broad ground, the cavalry of the fierce tiger army was invincible.


    A knife fell down and killed soldiers.


    Cao''s soldiers were constantly defeated.


    Zhang Xiu led the charge, but his eyes fell on the place where Xia Houdun''s flag was. It was the flag representing XiahouDun and the place where XiahouDun was.


    The great standard is here, and XiahouDun is there.


    When the flag falls, the XiahouDun dies.


    "Chase, follow me to hunt down XiahouDun."


    Zhang Xiu is carrying the overlord gun and is catching up quickly. By this time, Ganning, shamoke and Zhang Xiu had joined together, and their offensive was more fierce. Cavalry kept on killing and charging forward.


    The overlord gun in Zhang Xiu''s hand swung and waved in the air, killing Cao''s soldiers.


    The distance between him and charhoughton was getting closer and closer.


    Sixty steps!


    Fifty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than 30 steps, Zhang Xiu could already see the one armed Xia Houdun on the horse''s back. When he saw people, he was in high spirits.


    This time, XiahouDun will be captured alive. With XiahouDun in hand, the confrontation between him and Cao Cao would be more relaxed. You know, XiahouDun was Cao Cao''s great general and his right arm.


    Taking XiahouDun can intimidate Cao Cao.


    "Da! Dada


    Zhang Xiu slapped on the horse''s back, pursued the wind in her crotch, and kept making a loud noise. Her four hooves were constantly swinging and rushing forward quickly.


    Its speed is as fast as lightning.


    It''s like catching up with the wind.


    In less than half a quarter of an hour, the distance between Zhang Xiu and Xia Houdun was shortened to less than ten steps. At this time, Zhang Xiu ran and roared: "XiahouDun, you can''t escape today. Get off your horse and surrender. I will spare your life. "


    Xia Houdun galloped and looked back. Seeing Zhang Xiu coming, he was also very anxious. Even if he is fast, he can''t get rid of Zhang Xiu who is chasing behind him.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    The look on XiahouDun''s face was very solemn. After thinking about it, he ordered: "Pu Hong, Wang Zhi!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Pu Hong and Wang Zhiqi answered.


    They were the great generals under the command of XiahouDun, strong and vigorous. Although he is not a great master, he is familiar with the military strategy in the army and is a good hand in leading the troops to fight.


    Xia Houdun said: "now Zhang Xiu has covered up and killed us. We can''t evacuate completely. If we delay further, none of them will go away. You two retreat with the army, leaving two thousand soldiers behind and I''ll cut them off. "


    "No, general!"


    Pu Hong and Wang Zhiqi answered.


    Both of them have changed their faces.


    No matter how the rear is, it is impossible for XiahouDun to be cut off, because XiahouDun is the chief General in the army.


    "It''s not necessary to discuss it any more. It''s so decided."


    XiahouDun immediately gave the order, he made a decision, with his soldiers ran a distance. This distance was arranged by XiahouDun. After all the arrangements were made, XiahouDun turned his horse around and ordered, "my sons, follow me. It''s just death today. Kill


    He went straight to Zhang Xiu''s army with horse belly between his legs.


    "Kill


    XiahouDun''s soldiers also turned to fight.


    The Lord will do so, and the soldiers will use their lives.


    One by one, the soldiers under XiahouDun kept charging forward. The faces of these soldiers are full of fearless love for death. XiahouDun dares to do his best, just as soldiers do.


    "Kill me, kill me!"


    Roared Charlotte Houghton.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the two sides had already met.


    Under the spurt of the Qin cavalry, Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Gan Ning, and Sha Mo Ke joined hands in the battle. One face to face, they defeated Cao''s defense line and killed Xia Hou dun.


    The whole team was defeated.


    Zhang Xiu killed Xia Houdun in the direction where he was, but Xia Houdun turned around to escape and killed the soldiers of Qin army at the same time, with the intention of delaying time to buy time for Pu Hong and Wang Zhi''s retreat.


    It''s a pity that Pu Hong and Wang Zhi could not bear to see that Xiahou Dun was not afraid of death. They directly dispatched troops to kill him and fought with the Qin army again.For a time, the original evacuation of a distance, and fight again.


    Today''s Cao army is already weak.


    Its offensive is not as good as before!


    Its soldiers lack fighting spirit!


    Even if a group of mourning soldiers wanted to fight to the end with Xia Houdun, they could not resist the joint attack of Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning and others. They lost again and again and kept retreating.


    Zhang Xiu rushes forward, even if Xia Houdun evades, but after fighting for a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiu approaches Xia Houdun. The overlord''s gun in his hand rose, and thrust it into the chest of harhoudun.


    XiahouDun''s eyes were sharp and his knife was in the way.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of impact, in an instant.


    Under the impact of the great power, XiahouDun almost could not hold the sword in his hand. After all, he did not hold the sword with both hands, but with one hand. When he meets ordinary soldiers, he can easily kill them. After all, he is not weak.


    But meet Zhang Xiu such fierce person, but completely have no way.


    Especially others lack an arm, even Zhang Xiu''s face can''t stop. Influenced by the power of the overlord''s gun, XiahouDun threw out his sword and couldn''t take it back for a while. After all, it wasn''t flexible enough.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun, however, is extremely fierce. In the twinkling of an eye, she smashes it down again.


    One shot down, like a bolt through a hole.


    There is also a tendency for Taishan to press down on the top.


    Xia Houdun couldn''t avoid it, and he couldn''t avoid it. He had to lift the sword in his hand and beat his whole body with strength.


    "Dang!"


    The crash sounded again.


    When the blow fell, XiahouDun snorted and grasped the sword''s hand. The tiger''s mouth was directly torn, and there was blood flowing out. Under the pain of his palm, he could not hold the sword, and the long sword in his hand was knocked out.


    The overlord continued to fall.


    There is no reduction in its momentum.


    Bang!!


    The barrel of the gun fell on XiahouDun''s shoulder. Under the powerful force, XiahouDun screamed in pain, and felt that the bones on his shoulder were about to break.


    He couldn''t stand on the back of the horse and was knocked off by the force of the impact. At this moment, harhoughton was in great pain. It''s not just the palm, it''s the shoulder bone that''s going to break.


    Waves of pain made him unable to lift his strength and stand up.


    Zhang Xiu''s horse took a step forward, and his gun fell three inches in front of XiahouDun. He said faintly, "XiahouDun, you are defeated!"


    "I''m defeated, but I won''t be a prisoner!"


    With all his strength, XiahouDun grasped the barrel of the overlord''s gun. Immediately he leaned forward, and with a puff, the point of the gun penetrated into the heart of charhoughton.


    XiahouDun let go, fell back, and fell to the ground.


    Chest wound, bleeding.


    The corner of XiahouDun''s mouth overflowed with blood, and the look in his eyes gradually faded. But the corners of his mouth brought up a smile, as if he was glad that he had not been a prisoner.


    This is his joy.


    A moment later, with a crooked neck, he lost his breath.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the dead XiahouDun, and there was not much regret. XiahouDun was alive and could be used as well as dead. He arranged for the soldiers to gather up the body of Houdun, then led the soldiers to continue to kill with guns.

 Chapter 916

    When Pu Hong, Wang Zhi and others saw that XiahouDun had taken the initiative to die, they were even saddened.


    "Kill, kill back!"


    "Revenge for general Xiahou!"


    Pu Hong roared and rushed with a knife. But as soon as he gets close to Zhang Xiu, the sword in his hand hasn''t been wielded yet. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun has been stabbed.


    With a puff, the tip of the gun penetrated into Pu Hong''s heart, killing him with one shot. Wang Zhi also killed back, but still did not even touch Zhang Xiu''s clothes, and died under Zhang Xiu''s gun.


    The rest of XiahouDun''s soldiers began to come back.


    For a moment, the momentum was like a rainbow.


    It''s just that the spirit of mourning did not last long. With Zhang Xiu''s fierce attack, all Cao''s soldiers could no longer bear it, and the momentum of counter attack began to weaken.


    Screams, one after another.


    A body, constantly fell to the ground, leaving countless traces of blood.


    After all the loyal soldiers under XiahouDun were slaughtered, many other Cao soldiers began to escape. At the same time, there were many Cao soldiers who were completely frightened and had no courage to fight and began to surrender.


    In less than half an hour, the war ended.


    Zhang Xiu tells Ganning to clean up the battlefield and count the losses at the same time.


    After all these statistics, nearly an hour passed. Gan Ning came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, we have lost 4000 elite soldiers in this battle."


    "In this battle, we killed more than 12000 Cao soldiers. More than 3000 Cao soldiers were captured, and thousands more fled. In this war, we have won a great victory. "


    Gan Ning pointed to the place not far away where Cao Jun was being detained and said, "it''s just that these three thousand prisoners, what should we do with them? If we detain the prisoners and drive, the speed of the army will be reduced. "


    For Ganning, the implication is that he slaughtered the prisoners.


    Leaving prisoners is a waste of time.


    In particular, today''s war is already in the territory of Dongjun, so it is more necessary for the soldiers to be quick, so Gan Ning is not willing to leave the prisoners.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "none of these prisoners can be killed. When we kill Cao Jun on the battlefield, it''s a battle. There''s no way. But after the end of the war, large-scale slaughter of prisoners, the news spread, the whole territory of the state of Wei, will arouse resistance to our emotions, which is not cost-effective to pacify the state of Wei


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "what''s more, the people of Wei state are also from the Central Plains, not from the frontier fortress. The Hu people in the frontier fortress are not of our race and should be killed. But these people can''t be killed. "


    Ganning said, "but what should we do?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Li Ru and Zhang song. She asked, "for the prisoners in the army, what''s the solution?"


    Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Song said, "Your Majesty, I suggest that you take them all into custody. A few soldiers were left behind, holding thousands of prisoners on their way. The rest of the army marched and captured Dongjun as planned. "


    "Not right!"


    Li Ru refuted directly.


    Zhang Song frowned and said, "Li Shangshu, what''s wrong with this?"


    Zhang song is not happy at this moment. When he was in Chang''an, he was refuted by Jia Xu, Sima Yi or others. Now, under Zhang Xiu''s command, Li Ru, who has always been quite low-key, even refutes him.


    Zhang Song knew Li Ru''s situation, but he didn''t pay much attention to it.


    But now Li Ru hates him.


    Li Ru solemnly said: "Your Highness, if we arrange soldiers alone, we will detain thousands of prisoners and go on our way. But next, there will be countless wars and more prisoners. What should we do? "


    "If we arrest the prisoners again, they will still be in custody."


    "That''s not right!"


    "In the future, there will be more captives. In the end, they will become a burden, which will drag down the action of our army. His highness attacked Cao Cao this time. Not only our army, but also Zhang Ya of Nanyang County and Huang Zhong of Jiangxia county will invade the state of Wei. "


    "In this attack on Cao Cao, the main thing we need to do is to attack the city and plunder the land, weaken the Cao army, make the whole Cao army in chaos, and even mobilize more troops to Dongjun to create opportunities for Huang Zhong and Zhang Ya."


    Li Ru said: "so I think that soldiers should not be detained just because there are prisoners. This will weaken our own strength, which is the least cost-effective. "


    "What should Li Shangshu do?" Zhang Song asked


    With a smile, Li Ru explained: "I think the prisoners should be released, let them escape and let them go back to report the news. If XiahouDun is here, the surrender Cao army will be reorganized and released. But the murder of harhoudun and the release of these captives were the creation of panic. So I suggest that we release the prisoners and lighten our burden. "


    Zhang Xiu is thinking in her heart.


    He was inclined to Li Ru''s suggestion, because under the current situation, Zhang Xiu could not divide up many troops.Once the troops are divided, their strength will be weakened.


    It''s not good for Zhang Xiu to fight.


    Zhang song looks at Zhang Xiu anxiously, but listens to Zhang Xiu: "Wenyou, according to your plan, how do we send troops next?"


    Zhang songdun was disappointed.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu adopted Li Ru''s suggestion, otherwise she would not have asked Li Ru.


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness, I think the current goal is still Baima county. We didn''t go to Baima County before. The magistrate of Baima county will surely relax his vigilance. Let''s go back and take Baima County in one go. Even if the other party is prepared, we still have XiahouDun''s head. Killing XiahouDun is enough to frighten the other party. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "not bad!"


    Zhang Xiu fully agrees with Li Ru''s suggestion.


    He immediately made arrangements to release more than 3000 prisoners. After all the prisoners were released, Zhang Xiu didn''t care where they went. Generally speaking, after the prisoners left, on the one hand, they returned to their native places; on the other hand, they may go south to Xudu to try to return to the army.


    Zhang Xiu rushed to Baima county.


    Not to mention that there were no resistance fortifications in Baima county. Even the magistrate of Baima County didn''t take charge of it because Zhang Xiu took the army to meet the army of Xia Houdun and thought that the crisis in Baima county was over.


    Who knows Zhang Xiu killed a return shot.


    So that Baima county magistrate can not resist.


    Zhang Xiu is very cautious about the selection of Baima county magistrate. He is now in Baima County, and the magistrate of Baima county is obedient and dare not resist. But once Zhang Xiu left, Baima county magistrate was likely to return to Cao Cao immediately.


    Therefore, the first thing Zhang Xiu did after entering the city was to remove the official position of Baima county magistrate, detain him, and then reappoint a new Baima county magistrate.


    This is to avoid problems.


    After taking control of Baima County, Zhang Xiu made some supplies in Baima county.


    However, Zhang Xiu didn''t stay. After only one day in Baima County, he left Baima county and went straight to Puyang County to take Puyang County.


    When Zhang Xiu sent troops to Puyang County, the news of Zhang Xiu''s entry into Dongjun County spread quickly to Cao Cao, Xu capital, and changed Cao Cao''s face greatly.


    Zhang Xiu is here!


    As Xun you had expected, Zhang Xiu attacked Yuan Shao superficially, but actually Cao Wei.

 Chapter 917

    Cao Cao is a lot older now. After all, he has been working hard in recent years. Not only did he lose heavily in Zhang Xiu''s hands, but also he lost Cao Hong, and even XiahouDun became a one armed Xiahou.


    Cao Cao in history, at this time, has dominated the north, and his strength is unprecedented. Today, Cao Cao only lives in Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places. Even though the central plains are rich, it is much worse than Jizhou, Jingzhou and other places.


    This is a gap in strength.


    Even if Cao Cao worked hard, he could not keep up with Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Cao looked around and said, "the fierce tiger army under Zhang Xiu has entered the territory of Dongjun. Obviously, Zhang Xiu is going to have a full-scale war with us. What do you think of this war? "


    Xun you said: "most of Zhang Xiu''s troops are gathered in Nanyang County. According to the news, there are Huang Zhong''s flying bear army, Zhang Ya''s regular army, and Liangzhou''s flying Qiang army. "


    "When these three forces are combined, there will be at least 80000 or 90000 troops. Zhang Xiu''s main attack direction should be in Nanyang County. However, Zhang Xiu''s use of military force is like a God, and we can''t underestimate it. "


    Xun you said: "at present, the state of Wei not only has to fight against Zhang Xiu of Dongjun, but also has to face the attack of Nanyang. No matter which side, once it can''t resist, the state of Wei will fall into crisis. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness should quickly arrange people to inform Liu Bei of Runan to prepare him for the battle. In this war, we must win and never go wrong. Otherwise, the great Wei will be in danger! "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "in addition to that, we have to determine the leader of the attack from the dynamic and Nanyang."


    Cao Cao nodded his head and said, "what fengxiao said is true. The first thing to do now is to determine the leader. Come and call Xia Houyuan, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and Cao Ren. "


    Immediately, he gave orders to go down.


    There are plenty of talents under Cao Cao. When Cao Cao was waiting, a servant came in panic and reported, "Your Highness, it''s not good. It''s not good."


    Cao Cao said, "what happened?"


    General shadun was killed in the war


    Boom!!


    In Cao Cao''s mind, it was like thunder.


    He was in a daze.


    The brain, which was not so painful, was excited by the battle in which XiahouDun died. It was very painful. It was as if there were needles in the brain.


    "Taiyi, pass on Taiyi!"


    Cheng Yu became nervous after seeing this.


    At this moment, on Cheng Yu''s old cheek, his expression was cold. Soon after Cheng Yu''s order, the imperial doctor rushed in and pricked Cao Cao''s head with needles. The pain in Cao Cao''s head was relieved.


    "It hurts me too!"


    Cao Cao rubbed his temple and felt extremely uncomfortable.


    Cao Hong first!


    After that, there is XiahouDun!


    These people are not only his subordinates, but also his relatives. Now they are all dead on the battlefield.


    Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness, this is the end of the matter. Please be patient. Now what we want to do is to block Zhang Xiu''s two attacks. If your highness, because of the death of general Xia Hou, transfers his main forces to attack Zhang Xiu, which makes Nanyang County unstoppable. Then we in the state of Wei are in danger. Your highness, please think twice. "


    Xun you said, "please calm down, your highness!"


    Guo Jia then said, "the dead are gone. Even if your highness wants to avenge general Xia Hou, he must take good care of his body."


    "I know!"


    Cao Cao clenched his fist and spoke with his teeth clenched.


    He looked at the nervous doctor and asked, "what''s the matter with me?"


    The doctor knelt down with a plop and replied, "please make atonement for your highness. You are incompetent in your humble duty. You can''t cure your Highness''s brain disease. You can only relieve your Highness''s brain disease. In today''s world, the only person who can cure his Highness''s stubborn disease is Nan Zhang Ji and Bei Hua Tuo. These two great doctors have the power to return to heaven. However, Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji are both in Chang''an and belong to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Bewitch the public with evil words!"


    When Cao Cao heard the doctor''s words, he stood up and drew his sword out of the sheath with a clang sound. With one sword, he stabbed the doctor in front of him and said in a deep voice, "I''m just a little bit of typhoid and brain pain. It''s just nonsense to say something about brain disease. It is absurd to say that only Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji can cure the disease. "


    Cheng Yu and others sighed.


    Cao Cao''s brain disease is something they all know.


    The news can''t get out.


    Once it is said that Cao Cao has a brain disease, which can only be cured by Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing under Zhang Xiu''s command, the whole great Wei Dynasty is likely to be in turmoil. Under this premise, Cao Cao, for the sake of stability, could only stab the doctor to death and keep the news from spreading.


    In fact, several doctors were stabbed to death because they were not strict with Cao Cao.


    However, the doctor who was killed before was not stabbed to death in person. It was because after going out, Cao Cao''s illness was revealed. Under the current circumstances, Cao Cao worried about XiahouDun''s affairs and killed the imperial doctor directly.Cao Cao sent someone to drag the doctor down and return to the seat.


    There was still a buzz in his head.


    It''s still tinnitus.


    Fortunately, in today''s situation, it''s not as painful as before.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, relieved the pain a little, and then continued: "Yuan rang''s temperament is strong, and his death in battle must be extremely tragic. At the beginning, the king only let yuan rang stay in Puyang County to help Yuan Shao at any time. Unexpectedly, Yuan rang is dead in the hand of Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Cao Cao said: "you all say that you can''t be angry, you can''t attack Zhang Xiu directly, but Wang thinks that it''s Zhang Xiu who is in the east county that we should go all out to deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness, put the main force on Zhang Xiu. But what about Nanyang County? You should know that there are three armies of Zhang Xiu in Nanyang County. "


    Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and said, "in Nanyang County, there is Liu Bei''s army. In addition, a part of the troops will be arranged to go there, which will be enough to hold on. Nanyang County, take the defensive, do not take the initiative to attack the strategy


    Xun you thought quickly in his heart and said, "Your Highness''s concern is not a bad thing. There is no definite way to use military. Under normal circumstances, this Nanyang County has the main force of Zhang Xiu''s hoarding. We should put our main forces in Nanyang County. "


    "If Nanyang County can hold on. In other words, if Nanyang County can hold down Zhang Xiu''s army, his highness can go all out to attack Zhang Xiu. "


    Xun you said: "as long as Zhang Xiu is defeated all the way, the crisis of the great Wei kingdom will be relieved."


    Guo Jia said: "it''s just like Tian Ji''s horse racing. We can match the weaker forces with the stronger forces of Zhang Xiu. As long as we win with Zhang Xiu, the overall situation will be decided. "


    "That''s the truth!"


    Cao Cao''s eyes are more and more bright.


    He didn''t want to let Zhang Xiu go just because of Xia Houdun. Therefore, it is suggested to attack Zhang Xiu. But now it seems reasonable and unexpected.


    This is a wonderful move.


    Cao Cao and Cheng Yu discussed with each other that Rao was so sad that he could not hide the sadness on Cao Cao''s face.


    Soon, Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang and others entered.


    After the ceremony, everyone took their seats.

 Chapter 918

    Cao Cao looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "the reason why he called you all here is because Zhang Xiu led his troops into the state of Wei from Dongjun. In addition, XiahouDun went to fight and died for his country. This time we will also send troops to meet Zhang Xiu. "


    Brush!


    Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan and others have changed color.


    There was a look of shock on each face, and no one expected that the good XiahouDun would disappear.


    He died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao renceng stood up and said: "Your Highness, I''d like to invite you to fight with Zhang Xiu."


    Xia Houyuan said: "the end of the general also asked for war, willing to fight with Zhang Xiu."


    The rest of them, one after another.


    Cao Cao said, "all sit down for me!"


    This is where everyone is.


    Cao Cao said immediately: "today, the state of Wei is not only faced with Zhang Xiu, but also with the fierce tiger army entering from Dongjun. In addition, Zhang Xiu''s general Zhang Ya, with the flying Qiang army and the regular army, has entered Nanyang County to join Huang Zhong. "


    "After the confluence of these three armies, they will attack the state of Wei from the border of Nanyang County."


    "The troops of the Qin Dynasty may have invaded."


    Cao Cao said: "now we are fighting against Zhang Xiu in two ways. Once, we united with others to besiege Zhang Xiu, but now we can only divide our forces against Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    All the generals in the army looked solemn.


    Everyone knows the fighting capacity of Zhang Xiu''s army. This time, Zhang Xiu''s army came out and attacked with all her strength. It was obviously a war of national annihilation.


    When Wei Guo carried it over, it was peaceful.


    If we can''t resist, we will destroy our country.


    This is the battle of national destiny.


    Cao Cao said: "Cao Ren, listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Cao Ren stood up and saluted.


    Cao Cao said: "you will send 30000 elite soldiers to Yingchuan County, together with Yu Jin, Le Jin and Zhang Liao, and prepare to resist Zhang Xiu''s army in Yingchuan county. Remember, your task is to hold down the army of Nanyang County and stabilize the situation of Yingchuan county. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Cao Ren responded directly.


    Cao Cao also said: "XiaHouYuan listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Xia Houyuan is also a boxing answer.


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "you immediately mobilize Gao Shun, Xu Huang, Li Dian, Lu Bu and other military generals, enlist 80000 elite soldiers, go north with the king himself to the East County, and destroy Zhang Xiu."


    "Here it is


    Xia Houyuan should fight.


    At this moment, Xia Houyuan also knew that Cao Cao did his best.


    Cao Ren took 30000 elite soldiers first, and now XiaHouYuan has to mobilize 80000 elite soldiers here. In this case, it is equivalent to mobilizing all the forces of the state of Wei.


    Only a few troops were left behind.


    The rest of the main forces are already pouring out.


    Cao ang is also sitting below, his eyes sharp, Baoquan way: "father, son minister request to go together."


    "No!"


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "ang''er, you stay at Xudu. Now that the king is out and there are not many troops, you are in charge of Xu Du. This war is related to the life and death of Wei. Not only the front line is important, but also the rear is crucial. "


    Cao ang said, "I understand."


    Cao ang has been clear about the situation of this war. If the front line could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army, the state of Wei would no longer exist.


    Cao Cao continued: "in this war, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu stayed behind, while Guo Jia and Xun you went out with me."


    "Here it is


    Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Xun you all joined in.


    Cao Cao said, "go ahead and arrange it. If the war is urgent, don''t delay. An hour later, they will send their own troops to meet the enemy. "


    "Here it is


    And they withdrew.


    After a while, Cao Cao left the room alone.


    Cao Cao had a sad look on his face.


    He put his hand on the desk and clenched it tightly. His eyes showed sadness and reluctance.


    XiahouDun was not only his confidant, but also his brother. When he was down, he was able to get a foothold because of his brothers such as Xia Houdun and Cao Hong. From Cao Cao''s downfall to his rise, to now, Xia Houdun is his most trusted confidant.


    Now, however, Charlotte is dead.


    His brother, one less.


    First, Cao Hong!


    And then there''s XiahouDun!


    A series of blows made Cao Cao sad and helpless. An hour later, when the voice of the servant outside the room sounded, Cao Cao stood up and let the servant in to put on his armor. Then Cao Cao strode out of the palace.


    Cao Cao''s departure set off a storm in Xudu.


    In the imperial city. Although


    Liu is now in captivity, in fact, he also has some eyeliner.After all, he is the son of heaven.


    With this great righteousness, there will be a steady stream of obedience. There are always people who are willing to work for Liu Xie for fame and fortune, or for other reasons.


    In the side hall, Liu Xie Duan sits at the top.


    Below sits Dong Cheng.


    Today''s Dong Cheng, unlike before, is only a general. His daughter, who has married Liu Xie and become the concubine of Liu Xie, is now a relative of the emperor.


    Dong Chengzheng sat down dangerously and said, "Your Majesty, I just got the news that Cao Cao is leading the army. This time, Zhang Xiubing was divided into two groups, one from Dongjun to attack Cao Cao, the other from Nanyang to attack Cao Cao. Today''s Cao Cao is about to fall into crisis. "


    Liu Xie bit his teeth and said, "the thief Cao has deceived me too much. Now that Zhang Xiu has killed me, it''s time to kill the thief Cao. However, this piece of embroidery is the same as Cao Cao''s. Cao Cao is a tiger, Zhang Xiu is a wolf. Even if Zhang Xiu comes to Xudu, I''m afraid I don''t have a good life! "


    At the thought of his own situation, Liu Xie''s heart was extremely lost. The Han family has been around the world for hundreds of years, but when it came to him, he wanted to become the king of subjugation, which he was unwilling to do.


    He didn''t want to.


    But I''m powerless.


    Dong Cheng was silent for a moment, then said: "what your majesty said is true. In today''s situation, whether it is Zhang Xiu or Cao Cao, there is not much difference."


    "But the problem is that Cao Cao now controls the imperial guards. His majesty can''t even think of the imperial palace. It''s all in Cao Cao''s hands. If it''s Zhang Xiu, it may not be like this. At least your majesty has a chance to take power. "


    "Although Zhang Xiu is fierce in war, she may not be as powerful as Cao Cao in her tactics."


    "So now even if Zhang Xiu comes here, it doesn''t make any difference. But I think that Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and Cao ang are ruthless people who stay here today. "


    "So at the moment, if your majesty has any idea, he should just wait and see what happens and not take any action for the time being. In this storm, it is easy to be targeted for any change. "


    Dong Cheng put forward suggestions.


    He married his daughter to Liu Xie, hoping that Liu Xie would be safe.


    Liu Xie said, "I''m not reconciled."


    Dong Cheng said: "compared with your Majesty''s unwillingness, it is the first thing to save your life. Once your majesty makes an action and Cao ang gives an order, the imperial guards will take your majesty into custody and send him to Cao ang. "


    "So, your majesty, please think twice."


    "At the critical moment, we are nervous. Cao ang and others are more cautious. We must remember not to act rashly."


    "From Zhang Xiu''s point of view, Zhang Xiu certainly hopes that his majesty will act quickly. Because his majesty made trouble for Cao Cao in Xudu, he helped Zhang Xiu and gave her more opportunities to deal with Cao Cao. "


    After a pause, Dong Cheng said: "according to the humble suggestion, your majesty doesn''t have to worry about anything, just let them bite the dog. Best of all, both sides will lose. "


    Liu Xie said, "it makes sense!"


    He had heard news spread in the city these days that Zhang Xiu had attacked Cao Cao, but now Cao Cao would be defeated. So Liu Xie''s heart, in fact, is a little excited, but now after listening to Dong Cheng''s words, he will no longer act, no longer have any ideas.


    Just rise of a thought, also be cut off.


    Dong Cheng said: "Your Majesty, I have something else in my hand, so I will leave."


    "Go


    Liu Xie waved his hand.


    Dong Cheng got up and bowed to him before he turned back.


    Only Liu Xie was left in the side hall. On his pale cheek, there was a trace of helplessness and a trace of desolation. Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu are in a hot fight, but he has no choice but to do nothing.


    This is a helpless move!

 Chapter 919

    Yuzhou, Runan.


    As the Duke of Chu, Liu Bei is also a vassal. However, Liu Bei''s family background is the weakest compared with all the princes in the world. Even Gongsun Zan, the most barren city in the north, is not as good as Liu Bei.


    Gongsun Zan was in Youzhou. Wuhuan and Xianbei were afraid of Gongsun Zan. As for Yuan Shao, there is no time to fight Gongsun Zan. Therefore, Gongsun Zan is poor, but he is safe and comfortable.


    In Jiangdong, sun CE has a long way to go. Moreover, sun CE is located in the south, without the attention of the Central Plains princes, so sun CE is relatively safe.


    Only Liu Bei is the most pitiful.


    Although Liu Bei occupied a part of Yangzhou and Yuzhou, his strength developed slowly.


    After all, Cao Cao is in the way.


    Under such a premise, even with Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei''s strength is limited.


    Chu mansion, in the hall.


    Liu Bei is looking at registered residence information to see his population situation. For Liu Bei, he does not have enough money, and is not like Zhang Xiu, who is rich and ambitious, and attaches great importance to population.


    This is the source of his army.


    When Liu Bei was busy, Zhuge Liang rushed in, his face was very serious.


    Today, the weather at the end of March is very pleasant. Zhuge Liang wears a white robe and holds a feather fan, which is very natural and unrestrained. But the look in his eyes was a little hasty.


    When Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang coming in, he had a smile on his face, which was as soft as a spring breeze. He said with a smile, "Kong Ming came just in time. Now I have counted the population. We have 10000 more households under our rule. There are a lot of these ten thousand households. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, the war has begun."


    "What''s the matter?"


    With a serious look on his face, Liu Bei said, "is it Zhang Xiu''s army that has begun to attack Yuan Shao?"


    Liu Bei was aware of the collapse of Yuan Shao''s plan to build Dajin bank. He had nothing to say about Yuan Shao''s calculation. Knowing that Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning, Yuan Shao has to follow suit. Who is to blame for Yuan Shao''s death?


    Yuan Shao was insulting himself.


    Liu Bei didn''t follow. He thought it was best not to learn what Zhang Xiu had made.


    Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "Lord, Zhang Xiu did not attack Yuan Shao, but chose to attack Cao Cao. Now Zhang Xiubing is divided into two ways, one is from Dongjun to Weiguo, the other is from Nanyang to Luyang to Yingchuan. "


    "We don''t know the specific situation of these two routes yet."


    "Not only that, Cao Cao has arranged for people to send letters urgently, asking us to send troops to the north to resist Zhang Xiu''s army in Nanyang County and hold back the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army."


    Zhuge Liang said: "today''s Dongjun has Zhang Xiu''s fierce tiger army. In Nanyang County, there are 80-90 thousand troops of Zhang Xiu. Cao Cao sent Cao Ren as the main general, leading 30000 elite soldiers to defend in Yingchuan county. Cao Cao led 80000 elite soldiers to fight with Zhang Xiu in Dongjun. "


    After Cao Cao made a plan for sending troops, he had already arranged for his own people and quickly asked Liu Bei for help.


    So Zhuge Liang came in a hurry.


    After hearing this, Liu Bei thought about it and said, "Kong Ming, Cao Cao, this is a calculation for us. Zhang Xiu''s main force is clearly in Nanyang County. But Cao Cao took his main force to Dongjun to fight with Zhang Xiu. Without our strength, Cao Jun of Yingchuan county would never be able to stop him. "


    "My Lord is wise!"


    Zhuge Liang nodded and solemnly said: "Cao Cao, I guess we will send troops, so we are not allowed to stand on the sidelines. Just imagine, if we stand on the sidelines, once Zhang Xiu''s army invades Yingchuan, it can threaten Xu Du. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said: "when the time comes, Cao Cao''s rear area will be completely defeated. However, Cao Cao only sent 30000 troops to force us to rush for help. If we don''t go to the rescue, then in the end, we can''t keep Chu. Lord, there is no way


    "Cao Cao is an old fox!"


    Liu Bei''s face was helpless.


    Taking advantage of Zhang Xiu has been in Guanzhong time, Liu Bei a strength of development, to restore their own strength. In a short period of time, Liu Bei has now managed to regain his strength, with more than 40000 and nearly 50000 elite troops under his command.


    This is Liu Bei''s family background.


    It''s not easy to get together.


    But now there is a war, which means that his soldiers will have great consumption.


    This is what Liu Bei does not want.


    But I had to do it again.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming, what do you think we should do under the current situation?"


    Zhuge Liang replied: "it is necessary to rush for help. Although there is a dispute between the Lord and Cao Cao, the dispute between the two sides is no match for foreign invasion. If Zhang Xiu''s threat is not solved. The state of Chu will not last long. "


    "I''d like to ask my Lord to lead the army north to fight against Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "In fact, if you think about it carefully, if you can resist Zhang Xiu''s attack or defeat Zhang Xiu this time, then the situation in the world will change.""In particular, Cao Cao''s sending troops has some meaning."


    "He countered Zhang Xiu''s strongest strength with his weakest strength. At the same time, let him under the strongest force, directly attack Zhang Xiu. If we help Cao Cao''s weakest power, Cao Cao will have a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "it is precisely this that makes this war crucial. As long as Zhang Xiu is blocked, the situation in the world will change. If Zhang Xiu''s army could not be stopped, the state of Wei would be destroyed, and the state of Chu would not be far away. "


    Liu Bei nodded.


    He agreed with Zhuge Liang''s analysis.


    For the state of Wei, it was a war of national fortune. Similarly, for Chu, it was also a war of national fortune. If even Cao Cao can''t carry it, so can he.


    Liu Bei sighed and said, "in that case, we should mobilize all our forces to fight against the Qin army in Nanyang County. Kongming, you go to summon us, and we will go north to Yingchuan County immediately. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "the Lord doesn''t have to mobilize all his strength. After the war, if he blocks Zhang Xiu, he may even defeat her. We must also have the power to fight against Cao Cao and even seize the territory of Zhang Xiu. Humble proposal, mobilize 30000 elite troops, leaving the rest of the forces guard Runan. In this way, we will not put all our strength on Yingchuan county. "


    "What Kong Ming said is true!"


    When Liu Bei heard this, he nodded and agreed: "I''m still going to fight in person this time. I still remember the hatred of my third brother in the past. This time, we must kill the generals under Zhang Xiu''s command and let her feel the pain of the skin. "


    Zhuge Liang sighed at Liu Bei''s words.


    From time to time, Zhuge Liang heard Liu Bei mention Zhang Fei, and even drew a portrait of Zhang Fei in Liu Bei''s bedroom for Liu Bei to remember.


    Zhuge Liang did not advise.


    That''s a good thing.


    Let Liu Bei bear in mind the humiliation and pain, in order to make unremitting efforts.


    Zhuge Liang turned to withdraw and went to the army to mobilize the army. Now the person in charge of the army is Guan Yu. He is very happy to learn that he is going to go north to fight with Zhang Xiu''s army.


    As a civil servant, Zhuge Liang hoped to spend more time to recover his strength. However, Guan Yu, as a general, is different. He always wants to avenge himself and kill Zhang Xiu.


    Half an hour later, Liu Bei personally led the army to leave Runan and head north to Yingchuan county to help Cao Cao''s army in Yingchuan county.

 Chapter 920

    Dongjun, Puyang County.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu has won Puyang County. After Zhang Xiu destroyed XiahouDun, she went straight to Baima County, but after Zhang Xiu conquered Baima County, she took a rest and left Baima County as soon as possible to go to Puyang County.


    Baima county is Xiaxian county. It is a small county. The city is low and the wall is not strong. Such a place, even if occupied, is unstable, so the official structure of Baima county was adjusted, and Zhang Xiu went directly to Puyang County.


    Puyang County is a big county.


    The city is strong, the wall is tall, and there is a moat around it, which is easy to guard.


    Originally, XiahouDun was stationed in Puyang County, but after XiahouDun was killed, when Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, the magistrate of Puyang County directly surrendered and Zhang Xiu occupied Puyang County.


    Just after Zhang Xiu captured Puyang County, she got the news that Cao Cao was going north. Immediately, Zhang Xiu called Li Ru, Zhang Song and Gan Ning to discuss the next war situation.


    If Cao Cao''s forces were only 20000 or 30000, Zhang Xiu could fight head-on.


    But the news came that Cao Cao had 80000 people. With such a powerful force, Zhang Xiu''s fierce tiger army was only 20000 or 30000, not Cao Cao''s opponent.


    Although Zhang Xiu is confident, she is not conceited.


    He knows his limits.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Li Ru, Zhang Song and Gan Ning, quickly told them the intelligence, and said, "now Cao Cao is coming with a big army and moving the main battlefield to Dongjun. What''s your opinion on this?"


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness, Cao Cao took the army north to Dongjun, thinking that we would be destroyed. It is suggested that Puyang County should be defended. After all, Puyang County has a strong city wall and a moat. "


    "This fortification is enough to guard."


    "Especially after we entered Baima County, we carried the grain and grass of Baima county to Puyang County. Now the military supplies in Puyang County are enough for us to use for at least half a year. "


    "The equipment in the city is also quite sufficient. At least the large-scale fighting will last for two or three months."


    Li Ru said: "under this premise, we can''t stick to it. That''s the best way. After all, the breakthrough in this war is not in Dongjun, but in Huangzhong of Jiangxia. "


    Li Ru is quite clear about the current situation.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, looked at Zhang Song and said, "Zhang song, what do you think?"


    Zhang song also had an idea in his mind, so he said: "Your Highness, I think sticking to Puyang County is easy to get into danger. Therefore, I believe that we should not garrison all our troops in Puyang County. "


    "We are surrounded, once in crisis, the consequences will be immeasurable."


    "It''s not appropriate to have the rest of the army."


    Zhang Song said: "I suggest that we take the way of wandering and fighting. Cao Cao is going to Puyang County. Let''s go to Baima county. Cao Cao went to Baima County, we went back to Puyang County, even to other places. In a word, we will not confront Cao Cao head-on. "


    "Not right!"


    Li Ru refuted directly.


    Zhang Song said, "what''s wrong?"


    Li Ru explained: "our battle in Dongjun, or the battle field in Nanyang County, has one function, which is to attract Cao Cao''s attention and make Cao Cao think that we only have these two battlefields."


    "But once we keep avoiding, Cao Cao may suspect that his Highness has other means to break the situation. If Cao Cao takes precautions in Yuzhou, Huang Zhong''s surprise troops will lose their effectiveness, and this battle will be difficult. "


    "Puyang County is a big county with a strong city."


    "The county government in the city has been controlled, and the soldiers in our army have not committed any crimes."


    "There is no one against your highness."


    "As long as we guard carefully, we are in Puyang County, and have considerable ability to hold down Cao Cao''s army. As long as all Cao Cao''s troops gather here, it will be easier for Huang Zhong to send troops to the north in Jiangxia county. "


    Li Ru solemnly said: "Your Highness is really not at ease. You can send an order to Chen Dao of Hanoi county to dispatch some elite of Langya camp to the border of Dongjun county to meet us at any time. If his highness is still not at ease, he can send another order to Xu Shangshu to enlist Zhao Yun''s baimayi and Heishan army to the border of Dongjun. In this way, Puyang County is bound to be safe. Even if we want to leave Puyang County, we have enough strength to take over. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Song smoked from the corner of his mouth.


    I''ve been hurt again!


    He was speechless again.


    In the face of the eloquent Li Ru, he has no way to find a foothold in the argument.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at Zhang song. Seeing that Zhang song was no longer talking, she said with a straight face: "what Li Ru said is really reasonable. Now in Puyang County, we need troops, grain, weapons and weapons to defend the first World War. "


    "However, food and equipment must be well protected. If something goes wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable."


    "The soldiers on guard must be our men."


    "Nothing can go wrong."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition, he will send an order to Chen Dao to monitor Yuan Shao carefully. If Yuan Shao did not dare to send troops to the south, and did not dare to send any more troops, he would dispatch some of the elite of Langya camp to the border of Dongjun. Finally, Zhao Yun''s Bai Ma Yi was transferred from the Heishan army to the border of Dongjun. All these troops are hiding, waiting for the final decisive battle. ""Here it is


    Li Ru immediately responded.


    He is even more confident in this battle.


    In this war, there was mental calculation, but not mental calculation. They took the initiative, which must be more profound than Cao Cao''s calculation.


    Gan Ning stood up and said: "Your Highness, Cao Cao''s 80000 troops are coming. He will go to arrange the defense. We have to be more careful in this battle. "


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Li Ru and Zhang song also turned back.


    As time goes by, four days later, Zhang Xiu gets news from the royal guards that Cao Cao''s army has entered Puyang County and is approaching Puyang County.


    Zhang Xiu came out of the room at the end of the city and stood on the top of the city waiting.


    About half an hour later, standing on the tower, I could feel the sound of horse''s hooves coming from the distance. Countless horses trampled on the ground, making the ground vibrate slightly.


    Cao Cao''s army, here it is!


    Standing at the head of the city, Zhang Xiu saw smoke rising in the distance, and the mighty cavalry of the state of Wei galloped to the city of Puyang County. Soon afterwards, the cavalry mounted their horses, and the array showed its ferocious momentum.


    Behind the cavalry, there was the mighty infantry.


    A big flag flutters in the wind.


    One by one, the officers and soldiers were in the spirit of extermination.


    Cao Cao put on his helmet and drove his horse to the front. When his troops were arrayed outside the city, Cao Cao looked up at the tower of Puyang County and said, "where is Zhang Xiu, my king Cao Cao?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "Oh, my father-in-law came in person. I thought that my small force was not worth the great army of Wei. Unexpectedly, father-in-law personally led the killing. I''m flattered by your lineup


    Cao Cao''s eyes and eyebrows were sharp, and his temples were more frosty.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu, it''s all about killing.


    Zhang Xiu killed his brother Xia Houdun, and even Cao Hong died in Huang Zhong''s hands. He and Zhang Xiu have a bitter hatred.


    As soon as Cao Cao brushed his sleeve, he said in a cold voice: "Zhang Xiu, Puyang County is the jurisdiction of the state of Wei. You are stationed in Puyang County. You want to be reincarnated. It''s easy for you to come, but it''s not so easy to leave. You used to be very wise and cunning. Today, you are self righteous and think that Puyang County can keep it. That''s suicidal. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "father-in-law, everyone can boast. If you beat me, you don''t know how many times. But every time, you lose. Since my father-in-law and I fought, we have never won. Where did you get confidence in this battle? "


    Cao Cao''s face turned black.


    To be honest, Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu fought countless times, but they did not win once.

 Chapter 921

    With a look of disdain, Cao Cao countered: "Zhang xiuxiao, there are always victorious generals in the world, but there are never invincible generals. Even if you have won many battles before, you may not win all the time. Just like you now, winning forever leads to your self righteous entry into Puyang County. But I don''t know that it''s a retreat. It gives me a chance to kill you. "


    Zhang Xiu tut tut two, sneer: "the king of Wei is really merciless, just, since you do not pay attention to the friendship between Weng son-in-law, I will not mention private affairs, talk about business."


    "You say there is no general who always wins and never loses. That''s what you have never seen."


    "As for you mentioned that Wang Gang was self willed, self righteous and self reliant, do you know how much food and equipment there are in Puyang County? I tell you that the food, grass and equipment in Puyang County are enough to support me for more than half a year. "


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "I''m against Cao Cao''s army with the strength of a fierce tiger army. Why not weaken your strength?"


    "What''s more, you seem to have forgotten that I still have 80000 or 90000 troops in Nanyang County. You bring all your troops to Dongjun. As long as you can''t defeat me in a month or two, my army in Nanyang County will surely enter Yingchuan and break Xudu. "


    "When the time comes, you will lose."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao Cao, Cao Cao, you can''t count on me in this war."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Cao Cao heard the speech, he stroked his beard and laughed.


    His eyes were full of smiles.


    Zhang Xiu did not ask, so quietly waiting.


    Cao Cao saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t ask him why he was laughing, so he had to stop himself, hummed and retorted again: "Zhang Xiu, you are so naive. Do you really think that I will do nothing. The king was in Yingchuan County, and only 30000 troops were deployed. "


    "These 30000 plus troops only take defensive measures and will not take the initiative to attack."


    "It''s the same as you."


    "Of course, it''s not exactly the same, because you, Zhang Xiu, are alone and have no reinforcements. But my king is ready for reinforcements. Besides 30000 troops, I have already arranged for someone to inform Liu Bei, the Duke of Chu. "


    Cao Cao confidently said: "today''s Duke of Chu, Liu Bei, leads his army northward from Runan County to Yingchuan. With Liu Bei''s troops, let alone defense, even if you want to compete with the army of Nanyang County, there is no problem. "


    "Zhang Xiu, you are self righteous."


    "But I will not be arrogant, and I will not underestimate you."


    "In this battle, you will lose!"


    Cao Cao had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "if you go out of the city and surrender now, I will spare you from dying because of the relationship between you and my son-in-law. But if you insist on resisting, all the soldiers of Daqin, including you, are bound to be killed. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "Oh, I''m so scared!"


    When Cao Cao listened, he frowned. Because Zhang Xiu''s words seem to be ironic.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Cao Cao, if you think that Liu Bei''s army can hold back the king''s army, that''s a big mistake. Liu Bei''s army, in Wang''s opinion, is like a local chicken and a local dog. "


    "But for the time being, I think Liu Bei can block the king''s army after he enters Yingchuan county."


    "But you, Cao Cao, forget that our king still has troops in Yizhou and Liangzhou. As long as there is any abnormality on the battlefield of the state of Wei. The other garrison of the king will not sit idly by. "


    "When it comes to the gap in military strength, Cao Cao is far away from Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so, if you want to defeat me with the strength in front of you, you want to break Puyang County. It''s impossible. What''s more, in Hanoi County, there''s my Langya camp. Langya camp is not far from Puyang. You can rush to help the king at any time. "


    Cao Cao said sarcastically: "bravado!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "whether you are bluffing or not, Cao Cao''s heart knows."


    Cao Cao solemnly said, "if it''s not bluff, why do you arrange Chen''s Langya camp to dangyin County in the north of Hanoi county. Dangyin County borders Jizhou. The reason why you do this is to guard against Yuan Shao''s attack. Such an army should not be used. But you said, "who else can you coax besides yourself?"


    On hearing this, Cao Jun''s soldiers nodded their heads and agreed, with a look of discussion.


    Many Cao Jun believe that what Cao Cao said just now is very reasonable. If Zhang Xiu was not afraid of Yuan Shao''s sending troops, it would be impossible for her to arrange soldiers to be stationed in dangyin county. Zhang Xiu is self contradictory.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Cao''s comments outside the city, especially Cao''s imposing manner, she finally looked at Cao Cao and said, "King Wei, do you think my Langya camp can''t be transferred? You are very proud. I don''t think we have any means, do we? "


    Cao Cao said, "isn''t it?"


    "Shallow!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "in the eyes of the king of Wei, can''t I even consider such small things? In other words, the king of Wei thought that his advisers could not even consider this kind of problem. "Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "but you are really negligent."


    "Obviously not!"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "if the king said that he could mobilize Langya camp to go south to Dongjun at any time, I''m afraid the king of Wei didn''t believe it. He thought that he was talking big words. After all, everyone would talk big words."


    Cao Cao said: "as long as Zhang Xiu''s army goes south from dangyin County, the army of Jin will go south immediately. So in this battle, it''s impossible for Zhang Xiu to threaten with the help of Langya camp. "


    "Oh, that''s all, that''s all!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "originally, there was some news that Wang was not prepared to say. But now, we have to say it. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed.


    With a look of examination.


    Is it true that Zhang Xiu has other means.


    Zhang Xiu said: "king of Wei, do you know that yuan Shaode sent his second son Yuan Xi to lead 3000 soldiers to sneak into dangyin county when his Langya camp arrived in dangyin county?"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Xi and 3000 soldiers were all captured. Now Yuan Xi is in the hands of the king. Do you think Yuan Shao still dares to go south? In other words, do you think Yuan Shao will go south to Dongjun in spite of Yuan Xi''s life for the sake of Cao Cao? "


    Brush!


    Cao Cao''s face changed slightly.


    The soldiers behind Cao Cao changed their faces and began to talk again. However, the discussion at this time is that Zhang Xiu has been prepared, not unprepared.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, said: "Zhang Xiu, who knows if Yuan Xi is in your hands."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the news that Yuan Xi was captured can''t be concealed. If you arrange for anyone to inquire, you will know. As long as Yuan Shao dares to send troops to the south, Yuan Xi''s life will be lost. "


    "As long as Yuan Shao sends troops to the south, all the 3000 soldiers of Jin State will be executed."


    "Do you think Yuan Shao will go south?"


    "Even Yuan Shao''s confidant Feng Ji is still in the hands of the king, which is also the means to contain Yuan Shao. You think Yuan Shao has the ability to contain the king, but in fact, it is impossible. "


    "I''m the elite of Langya camp. I can go south at any time."


    "It''s impossible for you to kill me in Puyang County. King Wei, I advise you to go back where you come from now. Now you quit Dongjun and let me take it. You can still preserve your strength. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "but if you really want to stay, you will lose in the end."


    Cao Cao''s face is very blue.


    At the thought of the hatred of harhoudun, he was full of murders. How could he retreat?


    He came to Puyang County to avenge Xia Houdun.


    More to revenge for Cao Hong.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu continued: "I still have a gift for the king of Wei. It''s the best thing to keep for the king of Wei. "


    With a wave of his hand, a soldier handed over a brocade box.

 Chapter 922

    Zhang Xiu holds the brocade box and throws it out. In an instant, a brocade box flew directly from the city floor. After drawing an arc in the air, it fell in front of Cao Cao''s horse with a bang.


    When Cao Cao looked at the brocade box, his eyes turned red. His hand holding the reins of the horse trembled slightly. As soon as he waved, someone came forward and picked up the brocade box.


    This is the body of Cao xiacao.


    He took it from the soldiers and was about to open the brocade box. Suddenly, Zhang Xiu on the city floor said in a loud voice: "King Wei, be careful, there are organs inside. Once there is a bow and arrow in this mechanism, you will be shot in the head by an arrow as soon as you open it. "


    "Hum..."


    Cao Cao snorted and opened the box.


    The brocade box was empty, with only a note, and there was no Xia Houdun''s body.


    For a moment, Cao Cao was surprised.


    Where is the body of harhoughton?


    He had a preconceived idea that this was the body of harhoudun, and his heart was already grieved, and even his eyes were foggy, but he didn''t expect that it was just a piece of paper.


    Cao Cao picked up the note and threw away the brocade box.


    On the note, there are six words on the back of the paper - Cao Cao died in Puyang!


    This is Zhang Xiu''s handwriting.


    Cao Cao looked up to the city floor and roared, "Zhang Xiu, you are deceiving people too much."


    "Ah, the king of Wei is angry!"


    Zhang Xiu saw Cao Cao''s roaring look, but her face was smiling. He didn''t care how angry Cao Cao would be, even that was what he wanted to achieve.


    If not, how to provoke Cao Cao?


    If not, how can Cao Cao lose his mind?


    Although the relationship between Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao is now Weng''s son-in-law, in the last life, he had hatred for the Cao family. What''s more, in this life, although he and Cao Cao were Weng''s son-in-law, they were married.


    The two sides were stationed on one side and were vassals on the other side. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao are hostile, so it is impossible to be merciful.


    This is the battlefield!


    If Zhang Xiu is merciful on the battlefield, it is unfair to the soldiers under her command.


    Cao Cao bit his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I swear to kill you. Huang Zhong, your general, killed Cao Hong. And now, in your hands, Charlotte is dead again. If I don''t kill you, I swear not to be a man. "


    "Well, the king of Wei is a heartless man. You would rather have your daughter widowed than avenged Cao Hong and Xia Houdun. It''s said that when is the time to repay each other''s grievances? Why do you have to? "


    Zhang Xiu''s words are stimulating.


    He did so on purpose, that is, to stimulate Cao Cao and make him lose his mind.


    Cao Cao bit his teeth and said, "the married daughter is the water poured out. When Cao Jie marries you, Zhang Xiu, he is your family member. Now that you say that you''ve been wronged, you know that. Why kill harhoughton


    Zhang Xiu shrugged and said, "Xia Houdun wants to kill me. How can I let him kill me?" After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "King Wei, I''ll give you another gift."


    As soon as he reached out his hand, another soldier handed over a brocade box.


    It was only in this box that the head of XiahouDun was really in it. The previous box was actually to stimulate Cao Cao and make him lose his mind.


    Zhang Xiu took the brocade box and threw it again, shouting: "the king of Wei is coming!" The brocade box crossed an arc in the air. In a flash, it fell to the ground and fell in front of Cao Cao.


    The soldier on one side quickly picked it up again.


    Cao Cao then weighed the weight, which was completely different from the previous. He thought of XiahouDun''s head, which was in the brocade box. His eyes were red again, and his hands trembled and opened the brocade box.


    In the brocade box, Xia Houdun''s body is vivid and exposed to Cao Cao''s eyes. Charhoughton''s body, preserved in lime. Although not a bit of blood, but intact, no damage.


    "Yuanrang, yuanrang!"


    In Cao Cao''s mouth, he muttered to himself.


    In his eyes, there was more fog rising, and there were tears. People like Cao Cao are hard hearted, but no matter how hard hearted they are, there are soft places.


    Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others were not only his right and left, but also his brothers. Seeing the death of the old brother, but also died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was humiliated, Cao Cao was furious.


    "Kill, take Puyang County for me!"


    Cao Cao slammed the brocade box and gave the order to attack. He pulled out his sword at his waist and pointed it to the upper floor of the city. He tried his best to shout: "kill, kill, kill..."


    Hissing and roaring, echoing in the air.


    In that voice, there was sadness and anger.


    Xia Houyuan, as the leader of the army, without any hesitation, directly waved the flag and mobilized his 20000 elite troops to attack the city wall of Puyang County.


    At this time, there are Jinglan car, ladder, crash and other siege weapons, fast forward.


    The soldiers followed.


    Twenty thousand Cao troops launched an attack, and Cao Cao looked up at the sky. Take a deep breath. Then, he ordered people to put away the box, looked at XiaHouYuan and said: "wonderful talent, don''t break Puyang, swear not to stop.""Here it is


    Xia Houyuan should hold his fist.


    To break the order of Puyang County, he carried out it meticulously, and even his heart also expected to break Puyang and kill Zhang Xiu. The mighty army advanced rapidly, approached the city wall of Puyang County and launched an attack.


    Zhang Xiu in the tower to see, there is no panic. Such a siege was really a child. He directly gave the command to Gan Ning, and let Gan Ning mobilize the catapults and archers to stop the Cao soldiers approaching.


    Dense bows and arrows, whistling stones, from the air across an arc, the blink of an eye has fallen in the crowd.


    There was a rumbling sound.


    The sound of bow and arrow coming into the flesh is also one after another.


    Countless Cao soldiers died on the spot.


    Screams come and go.


    Rao is so, there are still soldiers constantly forward, when these soldiers arrive outside the moat, they attack the city with the help of ladder, well LAN car. In addition, many Cao soldiers came forward with wooden planks to pave the moat for close climbing.


    Gan Ning calm response, mobilize waves of soldiers, constantly come forward to block.


    The whole defense is extremely rigorous.


    Even though Cao''s soldiers were on the offensive, under the strict defense of Ganning, Cao''s soldiers suffered countless casualties and could not stand on the city. After a day, Cao Jun was killed and injured countless times, leaving countless bodies outside the city, unable to attack the tower.


    The city tower of Puyang County is standing still.


    As night fell, Cao Cao looked at the torches burning on the upper floors of the city. The flames burned and scattered the night.


    The cry of killing is still ringing.


    Cao Cao has a dignified look in his eyes, because Puyang County, where Zhang Xiu sits, has a strict defense and is difficult to attack. It''s almost hard to win. Cao Cao had no choice but to order the withdrawal.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Cao Jun''s retreat, with a smile on her lips. He didn''t think that Cao Cao could break Puyang County, or even this battle. If Cao Cao''s troops had been gathering in Puyang County, Cao Cao would have been defeated like a mountain in the end.


    When Cao Cao withdrew, he retreated seven miles to find a suitable camp.


    Rao is so, but Cao Cao''s camp is not dense.


    The soldiers in the army were dispersed.


    In addition, the army''s grain and grass were carefully arranged, and there were few easily ignited ones in the camp. The reason for this arrangement is to prevent another fire attack, so that the camp turned into a sea of fire.


    If Zhang Xiu has another fire attack, this camp can not be broken by Zhang Xiu again.


    Cao Cao hoped that Zhang Xiu would come.


    As long as Zhang Xiu goes out to fight, everything will be easy to do. The problem is that Zhang Xiu has no intention to send troops now. Zhang Xiu''s intention was to garrison Puyang County and drag all Cao Cao''s troops in Dongjun county so that Huang Zhong could win.

 Chapter 923

    The situation in Dongjun was frozen for a while. Zhang Xiu always stayed in Puyang County and did not go to war at all. With enough troops, equipment and food, Zhang Xiu kept everything, and Cao Cao had no way to take Zhang Xiu.


    The situation between the two sides is deadlocked.


    Neither can win.


    When Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao were at a standoff, the army led by Zhang Yan had already invaded and directly captured the county. Zhang Ya''s army claims to have 80000 or 90000 troops, but its actual strength is no less than 60000. After such an army arrived in Fucheng County, the tiny troops of Fucheng County simply couldn''t carry it and chose to surrender.


    After the army led by Zhang Ya took over Fucheng County, he adjusted the officials of Fucheng county and firmly controlled it. When Zhang Ya''s army was ready to continue eastward to Xu county, it received news from the front line.


    Cao Ren led 30000 elites to Xiangcheng County, which is adjacent to Fucheng county.


    This is the only way to the east to Xudu.


    In the county, in the barracks.


    Zhang Ya, a Guli, Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others all gathered in the camp.


    Zhang Yan looked around and said, "now Cao Ren is in Xiangcheng County. Xiangcheng is different from Fucheng county. The city is solid and not easy to attack. Without Cao Ren''s army, we could sweep Xiangcheng County. But even though we have 60000 troops, Cao Ren''s 30000 troops are in Xiangcheng County. We can''t take Xiangcheng County. Can Pang Shangshu and Jia Shangshu deal with this? "


    Pang Tong said, "I don''t think it''s difficult. As long as we don''t attack Xiangcheng County, but go to the north of Xiangcheng County and attack Jia County, which is adjacent to Xiangcheng County, we can break the situation. If Cao Ren doesn''t send troops, he can only watch us capture Jiaxian. If Cao Ren sends out troops, our forces will be enough to defeat him. "


    "What Pang Shangshu said is true. This is a good plan," he said


    "I agree with Pang Shangshu''s suggestion, but what I''m considering is that Cao Ren and Liu Bei of Runan have reached an agreement, or that they have already had contact."


    "When we go north to Jiaxian, or even fight Cao Ren, Liu Bei will suddenly step into the battlefield. At that time, facing the attack of Cao Jun and Liu Bei, we may be in danger. "


    "So when dealing with Cao Ren, we must consider Liu Bei''s forces, which is extremely important," Zhang said


    Pang Tong said, "what general Zhang said is true."


    When he spoke, he turned his eyes to Jia Xu. This is the real old man who can handle things without leaking.


    Jia Xu said slowly: "in my opinion, it''s not difficult for us to compete with Cao Ren and Liu Bei''s troops at the same time. But it is not easy to deal with both sides at the same time, or even wipe them out at the same time. "


    "So we have to choose one side to do the calculation."


    "Attack one side, open the breach."


    "If we try our best to figure out Cao Ren, but with the help of Liu Bei, it is difficult to wipe out Cao Ren completely. Moreover, even if Cao Ren is eliminated, Liu Bei will not retreat. Because once he retreats and the state of Wei is destroyed, he can''t survive. "


    "So to deal with Cao Ren is to deal with Liu Bei and Cao Ren at the same time."


    Jia Xu''s eyes were full of sharp light and said: "now we have to calculate, and the one who can calculate is Liu Bei. Because Cao Ren''s first priority is not to help Liu Bei, but to guard Xu Du. "


    "In addition to our defeat of Liu Bei, it is also beneficial for Huang Zhong to go north."


    "According to the plan mentioned by Pang Shangshu just now, we will go north to Jiaxian county to draw out Cao Ren''s troops. In fact, this line alone may produce two possibilities. "


    "The first possibility is that Cao Ren does not go to Jia County, but to Fucheng county. You hit you, I hit me. Because once Cao Ren seizes Fucheng County, it is tantamount to cutting off our retreat. "


    "The second possibility is that Cao Ren will go directly to Jiaxian county to stop us. Such a possibility, Cao Ren quite passive, and even easy to be calculated by us


    Jia Xu summed up: "therefore, I think that for Cao Ren, a wise general, he either does not send troops. Once he sends troops, he will attack Fucheng County, which not only avoids our edge, but also makes us come back."


    Zhang Yan''s eyes flashed a light, praised: "Jia Shangshu means, once we come back, Cao Ren may ambush us halfway, both sides fight?"


    Jia Xu shook his head and said, "no, if I were Cao Ren, I would not take the initiative to attack, nor would I choose to ambush, because it is easy to cause accidents. The safest thing is to withdraw."


    Zhang Yan said: "but if Cao Ren ambushes, there is a possibility that less will win more."


    Jia Xu said confidently, "if it were Cao Cao, or the other generals of Cao Cao, it would be possible. Cao Ren, if you study his style carefully, you will find that he is extremely cautious. Just so, Cao Cao arranged him to guard. I decided that if we came back to Jiaxian County, he would withdraw immediately and return to Xiangcheng County again. Everything is back to the original origin. "


    Pang Tong said, "in this way, will it soon be a waste of money?"


    "Yes, this is exactly what Cao Ren hopes for."Jia Xu said: "after all, the main force of Cao''s army is concentrated in Dongjun. As long as Cao Cao wins, Cao Ren''s garrison is a success. On the other hand, even if Cao Ren doesn''t take the initiative to attack, as long as he drags down our army, for Cao Ren, he thinks that he has achieved his goal. "


    Open jaw, slightly nod.


    Jia Xu''s analysis is indeed quite detailed and extremely useful.


    Pang Tong said: "Jia Shangshu, since it is such a premise, how can we calculate Liu Bei?"


    "Divide


    There was a flash of light in Jia Xu''s eyes. He solemnly said, "I dare to conclude that Cao Ren will go ahead according to the plan just now. We can''t fight with Cao Ren."


    "So in this plan, I think we can make a bluff, send more than 20000 soldiers, pretend to be all our troops, and go to Jiaxian County in a big way to confuse Cao Ren."


    "The rest of the main forces are heading south as fast as possible to Kunyang county to the south of Fucheng county."


    Jia Xu said: "if Liu Bei''s army wants to go north, it is bound to reach Kunyang County, and then go north from Kunyang county to Xiangcheng County. Let''s take control of Kunyang county first and calculate Liu Bei''s army in Kunyang county. "


    Guli listened to Jia Xu''s words and gulped down a mouthful of saliva.


    In the face of Jia Xu, he always feels awe inexplicably.


    Fear in your heart!


    The old man is terrible and calculating too much. If you are right with Jia Xu, you don''t know how to die.


    In his heart, ah Guli mourned for Liu Bei.


    Bad luck to meet Jia Xu!


    After thinking about it in his heart, Zhang had some worries. If everything is as Jia Xu deduced, there will be no problem. However, unlike Jia Xu''s deduction, Cao Ren''s army directly attacked Jia County, or even killed them back to Fucheng County, and everything in his plan changed.


    Fighting on the battlefield, a small change in plan, will lead to countless changes in the plan.


    Everything will change.


    That''s the battle.


    The situation is changing rapidly.


    After careful consideration, Zhang looked at Pang Tong and asked, "what does Pang Shangshu think?"


    Pang Tong said: "I agree with Jia Shangshu''s analysis. Once the plan is successful, the situation in Nanyang County will be broken, and it will no longer be a stalemate. Even if the plan fails, it will have little impact. It''s a big deal. The troops going to Jia County are retreating, and the troops in Kunyang county are also retreating. "


    Zhang Ya was not a hesitant person. Seeing that Pang Tong and Jia Xu agreed, he directly ordered: "if so, according to what Jia Shangshu said, according to this plan."


    Now, Zhang began to make arrangements.


    One after another, the whole army moved quickly.

 Chapter 924

    The next day, early in the morning.


    The army led by Zhang Ya has begun to divide into two groups. Twenty thousand troops, pretending to be eighty-nine thousand troops, head straight to Jiaxian County in the northeast. At the first moment, the news spread to Fucheng county and Xiangcheng County.


    However, in one day, the news has arrived in Xiangyang City.


    Cao Ren, as the chief general, quickly called together Yu Jin, lejin and Zhang Liao after he got the news. He told them about the situation of Zhang Yan''s army going to Jiaxian county. He said solemnly, "what we need to consider now is how to resolve the crisis in Jiaxian county. What suggestions do you have?"


    After pondering over it, Yu Jin said, "Zhang Yan is in Nanyang County. He has a strong army. On the surface, he is going to the army of 80000 or 90000, but in fact, it may be a feigned momentum."


    "Maybe he has already divided his troops to intercept our reinforcements on the way to Jiaxian."


    "Once you go to Jiaxian County for help now, you will be in trouble. What''s more, we are short of troops now, and Liu Bei''s army is still on the way to the north, so we can''t meet for the time being. "


    "At this time, I don''t think it''s wise to fight Zhang jaw."


    Yu Jin said: if we are defeated before Liu Bei arrives, we will be defeated individually. In any case, we have to wait until Liu Bei''s army arrives. My suggestion is that the army should be stationed in Xiangcheng County for the time being and not take care of Jia County''s affairs. "


    As a general in the army, even though Yu Jin had made mistakes several times and even been captured, he was still highly valued under Cao Cao.


    After all, Yu knows that he can lead soldiers to fight.


    After hearing Yu Jin''s analysis, Cao Ren shook his head and said, "General Yu''s suggestion is good. This is the law of keeping success. However, I hope to stabilize the situation in Jiaxian county and keep Xiangcheng County


    "It''s not easy!"


    Yu Jin shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Liao sat down and suddenly said, "I have a suggestion for Zhang to go to Jiaxian in the north. Perhaps, this can hold back Zhang''s attack. "


    Yu Jin said, "what''s Wen Yuan''s suggestion?"


    Zhang Liao replied, "my suggestion is that we should fight our jaw. Zhang Xi and Huang Zhong, with a large army, went straight to Jiaxian county. Now, we are sending some troops straight to Fucheng county. "


    "Even if Zhang Xi and Huang Zhong removed the original magistrate of Fucheng County, he even arranged for another person to take charge of the county. But in fact, after all, Fucheng county is that of the state of Wei. If we attack again, it will not be difficult to capture it. "


    "So I''m sure that when our army goes to Fucheng County, Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong are worried that their foundation will not be stable, and they will probably not attack Jia County any more, but withdraw and return to Fucheng county to fight against us."


    "As long as Zhang jaw withdraws, we will immediately withdraw and return to Xiangcheng County."


    "In a word, it''s not confrontation with the Qin army, which only forces the Qin army not to go all out to attack Jiaxian, not to capture Jiaxian and maintain the present situation. If we want to make Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong understand that if we want to go to Xudu, we have to seize Xiangcheng County head-on. "


    Zhang Liao said: "in this way, we can not only avoid a direct battle with the Qin army, but also keep our strength and territory. This is my proposal to resist the Qin army. "


    "Wonderful


    When Cao Ren heard this, his eyes lit up.


    This is the best advice that Cao Ren heard. In this way, he can restrain the army of Qin.


    Even the army of Qin could not go to Jiaxian any more. This time, it would waste countless time. In the end, Liu Bei''s army had gone north. Once Liu Bei''s army also arrived in Xiangcheng County and joined Cao Ren, the strength of both sides increased. Even though the number of troops was slightly less than that of the Qin army, they had the strength to fight against the Qin army.


    Cao Ren didn''t hesitate any more and said directly, "just follow Wen Yuan''s advice!"


    Yu Jin frowned.


    He was a veteran, but Cao Ren didn''t think about it at all. Instead, he directly agreed with Zhang Liao''s proposal. Yu Jin felt uncomfortable, but he didn''t speak. After all, Cao Ren was the commander in chief.


    It''s not easy for the Qin army.


    Cao Ren quickly arranged to act according to Zhang Liao''s suggestion.


    Just like this, Cao Ren arranged for Zhang Liao to lead 10000 elites to leave Xiangcheng County. Under the command of Cao Cao, Zhang Liao was highly valued by Cao Cao. As a matter of fact, there were other people under Lu Bu''s command, such as Wei Xu and Cao Xing, but Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were respected by Cao Cao and really led the army.


    Zhang Liao led the army and went on his way according to the original plan, and this was a grand march.


    When Zhang Liao''s troops were approaching Fucheng County, a sentinel sent back the news that the Qin army, which was going north to Jiaxian County, had begun to retreat. Instead of going to Jiaxian County, it began to come in the direction of Fucheng county.


    When Zhang Liao learned the news, he withdrew as soon as possible without delay.


    He has only 10000 people.


    Once the time is delayed and surrounded by the Qin army, it is difficult to retreat.


    So Zhang Liao retreated quickly.


    Shortly after Zhang Liao''s retreat, the troops who went north to Jiaxian County returned to their father''s town and settled down again. This time, Zhang Ya personally led the troops to the south. Under the planning of Jia Xu and Pang Tong, he had quietly entered Kunyang county and settled down in Kunyang County, waiting for the arrival of Liu Bei''s army.Kunyang County, on the tower.


    Zhang jaw sits on the tower of the town, but the flag of the tower has not changed, it is still the flag of Cao Wei. Now Zhang''s sentinel has been walking in Kunyang County, constantly asking for information.


    This day, just after noon.


    A sentry quickly withdrew and came to the tower.


    Now, in April, the weather is getting warmer and warmer. Under the sunshine and running all the way, the Sentinels who come back to send messages are already sweating. After entering the city, he saw Zhang jaw and reported: "General Zhang, Liu Bei''s army, is less than 15 li away from the county seat. According to the information, the number of Liu Bei''s army is about 30000. Its troops, mainly infantry, are very few


    Zhang Yan said, "explore again!"


    After the sentry stepped down, Zhang chin looked at Jia Xu and said, "Jia Shangshu, do you think Liu Bei will be willing to enter the city and supply in Kunyang County next time?"


    Jia Xu said: "if that is the case, Liu Bei''s army can be completely wiped out, and even Liu Bei''s Chu state will collapse, and it can no longer be maintained."


    "But it''s very unlikely."


    "Even Liu Bei''s troops don''t need food supplies from Kunyang county. They may settle down in Kunyang county a little, and then continue to go north to Xiangcheng County."


    Jia Xu said: "after all, Liu Bei is in a hurry to catch the time. In particular, as long as Liu Bei arrives in Xiangcheng and meets Cao Ren, his supplies will be complete. "


    How can we defeat Liu Bei


    Jia Xu said: "first, it''s better to ambush Liu Bei in the city. In case Liu Bei''s brain is drained and he is willing to rest in Kunyang County, this is a chance to catch a turtle in a jar. "


    "It''s preparation."


    "As for the success or failure, it depends on the sky. After all, it depends on the people who plan for the success."


    "Second, if Liu Bei needs food supplies, we will give them a batch of problematic food, which will make the soldiers in his army feel sick after eating, and then they will attack by surprise."


    "Third, if Liu Bei just stops outside the city, or even goes straight north, we will attack Liu Bei when Liu Bei''s army leaves the county seat of Kunyang county."


    Jia Xu said: "at that time, we will work hard to defeat Liu Bei''s forces."


    When he said that, Jia Xu''s eyes flashed a cold look.


    He is very decisive.


    Up to now, it''s time to shine the knife. We can''t procrastinate any more. If you procrastinate again, in the end, it will only be a waste of time and a missed opportunity.


    When it''s time to do it, do it decisively.


    This is Jia Xu''s consistent style.

 Chapter 925

    Liu Bei led his troops northward to Kunyang county. On the way, he got the news that the army led by Zhang Yan went straight to Jia county to the north of Fucheng county. Cao Ren sent troops to attack Fucheng County, and the army led by Zhang Yan retreated and stationed in Fucheng county again.


    It means that Zhang and Huang have no breakthrough.


    This is what Liu Bei wants to see.


    Once the army led by Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong broke through Xiangcheng County and directly attacked Xu county, even if he brought the army to help, it would not help. Therefore, Liu Bei is more pleased to be able to hold on now.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest and began to cook. One by one, the cooks were busy. Soon, the camp was filled with the fragrance of rice and meat.


    However, Liu Bei has no idea whether the food is delicious or not. What he focuses on is how to win the war and go to Jingzhou under the current situation.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, who was not far away from him, and said, "Kong Ming, we have already arrived in Kunyang county. After lunch, we will soon arrive in the county. When we arrive in Kunyang County, will we go north to Fucheng County, or stay in Kunyang County, or go to Xiangcheng County? "


    Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, Cao Cao led 80000 troops to Dongjun to encircle Zhang Xiu. So the main battlefield of this war should be concentrated in Dongjun, so we don''t have to fight Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "Our main energy is to help Cao Ren hold down the Qin army and prevent the army led by Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong from defeating Cao Ren. So when we arrived in Kunyang County, we turned around and went to Xiangcheng County to meet Cao Ren. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "if we cooperate with the state of Wei, we will benefit both sides, and it is easy to defend. Once separated, it is easy to be broken by each one. "


    Liu Bei said, "what the military adviser said is true."


    Liu Bei agrees with Zhuge Liang''s analysis. Now the best way is to join Cao Ren.


    After the convergence of the two sides, there were more than 60000 or 70000 troops. It will not be too difficult to resist Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong''s army, but it will be quite easy.


    After the plan was made, Liu Bei said with emotion: "if this war can defeat Zhang Xiu, everything will be OK. If Zhang Xiu could not be defeated, the state of Wei would be in danger and the state of Chu would be in danger. This is not only the war of Wei, but also the war of Chu


    He''s a little worried!


    After all, Zhang Xiu is not simple, and Zhang Xiu against, he has never won.


    Zhuge Liang said, "my Lord, this is the battle of Wei and Chu. As a matter of fact, it was also the battle of the state of Qin. If Zhang Xiu is defeated this time, she will not be able to go east again. "


    "We will win!"


    Liu Bei clenched his fist and spoke with a firm face.


    "Big brother is right. We will win."


    Guan Yu also spoke.


    Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and others chatted, waiting for the meal to come, having lunch, and resting for another two quarters of an hour, the army set out again.


    This way is directly to Kunyang county.


    When the army arrived in Kunyang County, Liu Bei did not stop, but turned to Xiangcheng County.


    After all, Liu Bei still has food.


    Now the situation is urgent. If you go to Xiangcheng County and meet Cao Ren earlier, you will be more likely to hold Xiangcheng County and block Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong.


    Liu Bei did not enter the city, nor did he stay in Kunyang County, which made Zhang jaw quite sorry.


    What a pity!


    If Liu Bei enters the city, it will be as easy as a palm to wipe him out. When Liu Bei began to turn around and go all the way to Xiangcheng County, Zhang Yan no longer hesitated and resolutely ordered to attack.


    The first troops to attack were the cavalry in the regular army and the cavalry in the feiqiang army. The strength of these two groups of cavalry is nearly ten thousand people, which are also the cavalry specially used for killing.


    Behind the mighty cavalry is the army led by Zhang Ya and aguli.


    The army went all out to pursue Liu Bei, especially the cavalry. After a short period of pursuit, they got close to Liu Bei''s tail and killed him.


    As the cavalry charged and the sword fell, Liu Bei''s soldiers were killed and the wolves ran to the grave. They kept running, and there were more wails.


    The news soon spread to the Chinese army.


    When the news reached Liu Bei''s ears, Liu Bei was confused.


    It''s under attack!


    He was attacked.


    Liu jiuzhong was in a panic. There are more than 30000 elite soldiers under his command, and the number of infantry is the majority. Under such a premise, if the two sides fight, the army under his command will be defeated like a mountain, and it will not be able to defend.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and asked, "what should I do, military strategist? Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong''s army have come to kill us. Now, what can we do to keep this war


    Zhuge Liang''s hand was shaking the feather fan faster. His face was dignified, but he was also relieved: "Lord, the forces of Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong can''t all be in Kunyang county. They quietly lurked to Kunyang County, and it is certain that there are still some troops in Fucheng county. ""Therefore, although we are in danger now, we will not be defeated like a mountain."


    "At the moment, you can''t love to fight."


    "Retreat, we''ll retreat to Xiangcheng County at full speed. Try to get rid of the pursuit of the rear as soon as possible. "


    Zhuge Liang at the moment sighed in his heart.


    There was another ambush.


    He didn''t even understand. He was ambushed before he could react.


    Liu Bei also knows that he can only retreat quickly now. He quickly arranged for the sentry to report and deliver the message, so he did not delay any longer and ordered the evacuation to continue.


    Liu Bei''s army lost a lot in this retreat. From the territory of Kunyang County, they killed all the way to the border of Kunyang county. Only at night did the pursuers in the rear retreat.


    Only when Liu Bei''s army was safe did it not be covered up again. When the army stopped to rest, Liu Bei immediately ordered the soldiers to count the losses. After all the losses are counted, Liu Bei''s face turns black when Guan Yu reports the results.


    During the daytime war, he lost more than 13000 soldiers.


    Today, there are only more than 16000 people under his command.


    Of course, not all of these 13000 people were killed, because in addition to some of the soldiers who were killed, a considerable number of soldiers fled everywhere and will come back to join us later.


    Even so, the loss is huge.


    He didn''t even see Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong, so he was covered up and killed, so that he lost nearly half of his troops. Such a loss is undoubtedly huge.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "military strategist, originally we thought that if we beat Zhang Xiu in this war, we would have a chance to go south to Jingzhou. But now, it seems, it''s a bad start. As soon as he came out, he was hit head-on. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord, don''t be discouraged. Although we are at a disadvantage, we may not have a chance to turn over. The most important thing is that we don''t know about the war here in Yingchuan county. We didn''t expect that Kunyang county was quietly occupied by Zhang Yan. This is our intelligence. Something''s wrong. When we meet with Cao Ren, it will be better. "


    "Let''s go. We''ll drive all night."


    Liu Bei is not willing to stay, under the command of the army, continue to Xiangcheng County direction.

 Chapter 926

    The defeated general led by Liu Bei quickly went to Xiangcheng County. The next morning, Liu Bei arrived in Xiangcheng County. At this time, Liu Bei was in a mess. His clothes were all wrinkled and his hair was a little untidy.


    His soldiers were also extremely tired.


    After all, during the day, he was killed by the army of the state of Qin and escaped for most of the day. In the evening, they were so desperate that they came to the foot of the tower one by one. Liu Bei called for Cao Ren to open the gate.


    Cao Ren told the soldiers to open the gate and let Liu Bei enter the city. Looking at Liu Bei''s troops, he frowned and asked, "Duke Chu, what happened?"


    He didn''t know that Liu Bei was ambushed.


    With a sigh, Liu Bei immediately explained the ambush in Kunyang county. Finally, he said, "no one thought that Zhang Xiu''s army would come out of Kunyang county. You know, Kunyang county has been under the rule of the state of Wei, not occupied by Zhang Xiu. Today, it is not only Fucheng County in Zhang''s hands, but also Kunyang County in Zhang''s hands. "


    Cao Ren zhengse way: "this leader''s jaw, not simple ah. Previously, I thought that Zhang''s main energy should be focused on Jia County. Unexpectedly, they quietly captured Kunyang County, and then ambushed the Duke of Chu. "


    Liu Bei said: "this time we were retreated, we lost our food and grass. In addition, armor and weapons need to be replenished. These aspects need the supply of general Cao Ren. "


    "As it should be."


    Cao Ren didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    When Liu Bei came to help, he was ambushed again. If he didn''t supply Liu Bei with military supplies, what would Liu Bei think.


    Cao Ren needs Liu Bei''s help.


    After the confluence of Cao Ren''s and Liu Bei''s armies, the strength of both sides increased, and they still did not take the initiative to attack. They still stayed in Xiangcheng County and chose to stick to the strategy.


    On the other hand, after Zhang Ya captured Kunyang County, he also pushed forward.


    However, the speed of jaw opening is slow. The army is not impatient, steadily to the direction of Xiangcheng County. Now Liu Bei''s army has arrived in Xiangcheng County, and Huang Zhong, who is far away in Jiangxia County, has a chance.


    So Zhang changed his attack and now he''s just pushing forward steadily.


    North of Jiangxia county.


    Huang Zhong''s 30000 flying bear soldiers are hiding at the border. During this period of time, for the soldiers of the flying bear army, their faces were full of expectation, and they were all ready to fight.


    Garrison location, big account of the Chinese army.


    In addition to training soldiers, Huang Zhong did not have many soldiers in his daily life, but encouraged them from time to time.


    Hoo!!


    The curtain of the tent was lifted.


    But Sima Yi entered in a hurry with a bright smile on her face. He lifted his robe and sat down. He said quickly, "General Huang, we have a chance to attack."


    "Just after receiving a letter from Zhang Ya, he ambushed Liu Bei in Kunyang County of Yingchuan County, killed more than 6000 Liu Bei''s troops and captured more than 4000 prisoners."


    "Now the army led by Liu Bei has joined Cao Ren."


    Sima Yi had expectations in her eyes and said, "now in the Chu Kingdom of Runan County, even though Liu Bei has left some troops to guard, his strength is insufficient. We can easily win."


    With a flash in his eyes, Huang Zhong said, "I can send troops at last."


    Sima Yi nodded: "indeed, we have been waiting for such a long time, and finally we have the chance. Now the territory of the state of Chu is empty. We send our troops to the north and go straight to Runan County. "


    "Somebody


    Huang Zhong immediately ordered.


    A soldier rushed in and saluted.


    Huang Zhong said: "order to go down, gather the soldiers and make all the soldiers ready for dry food. Our army set out for the north of Runan County and went straight to the hinterland of Runan County. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to inform immediately.


    Huang Zhong said, "commander Sima, what is our strategy now?"


    Sima Yi said: "it doesn''t need any strategy. It just needs to attack with integrity and keep attacking cities and lands. That''s enough. This war will make the whole state of Chu panic. "


    "I see!"


    Huang Zhong nodded.


    Half an hour later, Huang Zhong and Sima Yi led the army northward.


    Thirty thousand flying bears march north.


    When he went north, he soon reached the border of Jiangxia county and Runan County. At the border of Runan County, a team of 3000 people was stationed to prevent Huang Zhong''s army from entering Jiangxia county.


    Unfortunately, in front of the 30000 elite of the flying bear army, these troops stationed at the border are not enough to see, and they are not qualified to even plug the teeth of Huang Zhong''s flying bear army.


    The army pushed and crushed three thousand Chu soldiers stationed on the border.


    But a lot of people escaped.


    Although it was said that the soldiers'' escape would lead to news spread, Huang Zhong didn''t care. He led the army to the North quickly and constantly attacked the city and plundered the land. In just ten days, Huang Zhong won four counties.All the counties were defeated in the first World War and had no resistance at all. Huang Zhong took the four counties, adjusted the officials of the four counties, and arranged people close to the state of Qin to take charge.


    Huang Zhong didn''t leave any soldiers behind, because the overall situation has been thoroughly affected by his war. What Huang Zhong wants to do is not how many cities he will occupy, but how many cities he will conquer. As long as Huang Zhong is not defeated, there will be no problems in these surrendering counties.


    In the middle and late April, the army led by Huang Zhong had approached Pingyu County, which was the headquarters of Runan.


    It was also the capital of Chu state established by Liu Bei. His founding name was Chu, but he only called himself the Duke of Chu. His capital was also in Pingyu county. With the approaching of Huang Zhong''s 30000 troops, the whole Pingyu county was already in panic.


    Everyone is worried about being slaughtered.


    Everyone is worried about being attacked.


    Jian Yong, an official who stayed in Pingyu County, was also constantly mobilizing defensive equipment to stabilize the domestic situation. In addition, Jian Yong has sent someone to spread the news of asking for help.


    He told Liu Bei the news.


    Let Liu Bei come back.


    Fortunately, Runan County is not far away from Yingchuan county. The soldiers rushed 800 Li to get there as fast as they could. Two days later, they didn''t use the time. The messenger had already arrived in Xiangcheng County.


    The sentry entered the city and quickly mounted the tower. When he saw Liu Bei, he said hastily, "Duke Chu, it''s not good. When the state of Chu was attacked, Huang Zhong led the flying bear army from Jiangxia county to the north, attacking the city and plundering the land all the way and approaching Pingyu county. "


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face suddenly changed.


    Why?


    Huang Zhong''s flying bear army, clearly in Nanyang County, how to get to Jiangxia county.


    No, it''s a trick!


    Liu Bei''s heart suddenly clapped and a heart sank.


    What he didn''t expect was that Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong put him together, pretending to create the news that Huang Zhong would continue to be in Nanyang County. In fact, Huang Zhong went south to Jiangxia early, and then attacked Runan County.


    This is a drastic solution.


    Pingyu county is Liu Bei''s base camp. If Pingyu makes any mistakes, the whole state of Chu, even the whole territory under Liu Bei, will fall apart. After all, Pingyu county is the capital of Chu.


    Gudong!


    Liu Bei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked at Zhuge Liang and asked, "military strategist, now Huang Zhong''s army has entered Pingyu county. The situation is extremely unfavorable. What shall we do?"


    Zhuge Liang quickly shook the feather fan and frowned.


    This time, too passive.


    First, he entered Kunyang county from Runan County, and was put together by Zhang Yan, so that even if some soldiers finally came back to join him, he lost nearly ten thousand troops. Now Huang Zhong leads his troops into Runan County, threatening the security of Pingyu county.


    The whole process is extremely passive.


    There is no advantage.


    If we don''t rescue Pingyu County, I''m afraid Jian Yong will not be able to defend Pingyu county.


    This is what Zhuge Liang is worried about.

 Chapter 927

    Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "Lord, Pingyu county is the foundation of Chu. Once Pingyu County fell, the state of Chu disappeared. Therefore, under the current circumstances, only a part of the troops can be dispatched to rush back to Pingyu County for help. "


    When he said this, Zhuge Liang was helpless. This is the way to cure the headache and the foot pain. Even if we do this, we may be miscalculated again.


    We can''t ignore Pingyu county.


    If Ping Yu''s safety is ignored, I''m afraid Liu Bei will not like it either.


    That''s why Zhuge Liang said that.


    Cao Ren is a man of insight. He said in a deep voice: "ZHUGE military adviser, since Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong have laid this trap. Now the Duke of Chu wants to send his troops back, and I''m afraid that they will be ambushed. At that time, the troops going to the rescue will also fall into danger. Under such a premise, it is absolutely harmful but not beneficial. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "what does general Cao say?"


    Cao Ren said: "Pingyu county still has garrison, no matter Pingyu County for the time being."


    "No way!"


    Liu Bei spoke directly.


    Let him regardless of Pingyu County, is to sit back and watch the nest was end, Liu Bei is absolutely not willing to.


    Cao Ren said: "Duke Chu, you know that there will be ambush outside, and you may even be blocked. Do you still insist on going to Pingyu county to help you?"


    "Must go!"


    Liu Bei''s firm answer.


    Cao Ren immediately speechless, said: "since this is the case, the Duke of Chu will arrange it, the persuasion, I have persuaded."


    "Brother, I have something to say!"


    All of a sudden, Guan Yu, who had been standing by, began to speak.


    Liu Bei said, "Yunchang, please say it!"


    Guan zhengse said: "Huang Zhong leads the army and approaches Pingyu county. If he doesn''t care about Pingyu County, he won''t be at ease. But if all the troops withdraw, I''m afraid Xiangcheng County is not appropriate. After all, it''s necessary to rush to help the state of Wei. "


    After a pause, Guan Yu said, "so I beg you to give me six thousand talents. With my 6000 elite and the garrison of Pingyu County, even if Huang Zhong''s troops are powerful, he may not be able to break Pingyu county. At that time, Xiangcheng County and Pingyu county will have their own garrisons to defend and try to hold down the army of the state of Qin. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "I agree with Mr. Yun''s suggestion. This is the safest arrangement."


    "Yes," said Liu Bei


    "Thank you, brother!"


    Guan Yu said, "I''m going to mobilize the army and prepare for the evacuation."


    Liu Bei followed him. He and Guan Yu went to the direction of the barracks. As they walked, they reminded him: "second brother, you must be careful. Don''t be careless. Pingyu county is important, but I only have you as a brother. If anything goes wrong with you, I am alone. If you encounter danger or difficulties when you return to Pingyu County, the most important thing is to save your life. Do you know? "


    "I see!"


    Guan Yu gave a reply.


    He looked at Liu Bei and said: "brother is in Xiangcheng County. Although he is helping Cao Cao, he has to be careful to guard against Cao Wei and the safety of Cao Ren. Even if we cooperate temporarily, there was a conflict of interest between the two sides. However, with Zhuge''s military adviser in hand, elder brother just needs to follow the arrangement of the military adviser. "


    Liu Bei said, "don''t worry about yourself. I don''t want you to think about it."


    "I understand!"


    Guan Yu answers with a smile.


    When he came to the barracks, he turned over and mounted his horse, stroked his long beard under his jaw, took the green dragon Yanyue sword in the hand of Zhou Cang beside him, mobilized six thousand elites, and ordered to set out.


    Only after Guan Yu drove his horse forward for a few steps, he stopped and turned around. He bowed to Liu Bei with his fist. Then he left with six thousand elite soldiers.


    Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu''s back and frowned. Somehow, he was worried.


    Inexplicably worried.


    Inexplicably some restless.


    Liu Bei took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and then turned to the tower.


    As the suspension bridge was lowered and the city gate was opened, Guan Yu left with his army. The news was quickly found by the Qin army sentry near Xiangcheng County and reported to Zhang Ya''s barracks.


    When Zhang ya got the news, he called Jia Xu and Pang Tong and said with a smile, "Jia Shangshu and Pang Shangshu, just got the news, Guan Yu left Xiangcheng County with six thousand elite soldiers and went south to the direction of Runan County. It seems that the news that Huang Zhong had entered Pingyu county and approached Pingyu county came that Liu Bei was flustered and arranged for Guan Yu to come to the rescue. "


    Before that, Zhang jaw got the news.


    Then Zhang Yan, Jia Xu and Pang Tong had a discussion, and they had made a plan.


    Just waiting for Liu Bei to take the bait.


    Liu Bei did not expect to stay in the city, but Guan Yu with six thousand elite south.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "if Guan Yu wants to go south to help Pingyu County, he must pass our ambush. This war will surely wipe out Guan Yu directly. "


    Zhang Maxiao said: "in this war, Ma Chao also participated. You know, Ma Chao''s martial arts skills are no less than Guan Yu''s. with him personally leading the troops to ambush, it''s enough to win. "Before the division in Chang''an, after the final adjustment, Ma Chao followed Zhang Yan to the south. After all, Zhang jaw''s army, the lack of a strong general, Ma Chao strong, to ensure that there are tiger generals.


    Jia Xu nodded: "once in Jingzhou, Ma Chao had a fight with Guan Yu. Today, Ma Chao''s martial arts is no less than Guan Yu''s, so we can look forward to it. What''s more, Ma Chao has brought more than 25000 troops, which is enough to win


    "Wait for the result," he said


    A few people chatting, it seems very relaxed.


    Everything has been calculated, there is no need to do anything, just wait for the result.


    Pingdingpo, 30 li away from Xiangcheng County.


    The terrain is not steep.


    It''s the hills and hillsides. The hills are covered with weeds and some shrubs. Now the army led by Ma Chao is lurking here. Ma Chao wanted to find a dangerous place to ambush, or use fire or water to attack.


    Unfortunately, no suitable ambush site could be found.


    They can only ambush on both sides of the flat top slope, wait for Liu Bei''s troops to withdraw, and then kill them from both sides of the slope to fight with ambush. This is the limit of ambush.


    However, Ma Chao also used his heart. He arranged troops in front and back to prevent Liu Bei''s troops from escaping. Ma Chao did not know when Liu Bei''s army would arrive.


    His ambush is always waiting quietly.


    "Rustle!"


    There was a sound of footwork.


    A soldier rushed to Ma Chao''s side and reported: "general, general Zhang sent someone to send a letter."


    Ma Chao took it over and took it apart for a quick look.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Ma Chao said three good words in a row: "Liu Bei''s army has finally come. Good guy, we''ve been waiting here for several days, but it''s good news. "


    He waved the sentry down, looked at the messenger, and ordered, "go down and tell all the soldiers to be on guard. Guan Yu led six thousand Chu troops to pingdingpo. Wait for the general''s order and be ready to fight. "


    "Here it is


    The herald got the order and arranged it immediately.


    In a short time, after the news spread, all the soldiers gathered their spirits, opened their eyes one by one, polished their swords, and were ready to kill.


    Ma Chao is also quietly waiting, time is not long, and a sentinel came to Ma Chao''s side to report that the army led by Guan Yu is less than six miles away from pingdingpo, and the distance is rapidly getting closer.


    Ma Chao''s heart is quiet, waiting. As time goes by, suddenly, Ma Chao looks up to the hillside and sees an army rapidly entering the ambush area.


    The leader is Guan Yu.


    Today''s Guan Yu, though wearing armor, is still wearing a green robe and a green hat. He drove his horse to the front and ordered his soldiers to drive as fast as possible.


    Pingyu county is in danger, so is Guan Yu.


    So it''s a rush.

 Chapter 928

    Ma Chao watched Guan Yu''s troops enter the ambush circle little by little. When all the soldiers under Guan Yu entered the ambush circle, Ma Chao ordered: "kill!"


    "Woo! Woo


    The bugle of attack sounded immediately.


    The powerful and passionate sound of the horn resounds on the flat top hill. From the hillsides on both sides, the Qin soldiers rush out and rush down the hill.


    The hillside is not steep.


    It''s just a slight slope.


    Ma Chao has already shot one person at a time, rushing down quickly. He took the lead and soon went down the hill to the foot of the hill to join Liu Bei''s army. The golden spear of tiger head Zhan stabbed out when it was mentioned, and then stabbed into the heart of a soldier of Chu army with a puff.


    As the tip of the gun was drawn out, blood splashed out of the chest, and the soldier fell to the ground and died on the spot.


    "Kill, kill Guan Yu!"


    Ma Chao tried his best to roar and kept killing Guan Yu.


    At the same time, Qin soldiers also entered the battlefield and Liu Bei''s soldiers. The two sides fought each other. Qin soldiers were not only large in number, but also had strong fighting capacity, constantly suppressing Chu soldiers.


    Liu Bei''s Chu soldiers, though all of them were elite, were too few.


    Ma Chao is surrounded by 20000 people.


    Such a gap determines the huge difference in combat effectiveness between the two sides.


    Ma Chao didn''t take charge of the soldiers. His target was Guan Yu. Kill Guan Yu, or capture Guan Yu alive, this is his expectation, all Ma Chao constantly forward, to the place where Guan Yu is.


    At this time, Guan Yu was also very anxious.


    Sure enough, he was ambushed.


    However, even if there is an ambush, Guan Yu must evacuate as soon as possible. Waving the green dragon Yanyue sword in his hand, he exclaimed, "go, go. Out of this area, there will be no ambush. "


    "Rush through!"


    Guan Yu''s loud order.


    He took the soldiers under his command to break through the encirclement, but he rushed forward less than a hundred steps, only to see a group of spearmen on the official road in front of him.


    There are more than 3000 spearmen in this group, which are specially used to block roads.


    To stop Guan Yu.


    In order to completely cut off Guan Yu''s retreat, Ma Chao had only 20000 soldiers lying in ambush around him. He arranged another 3000 soldiers to block Guan Yu''s advance on the official road in front of him, and even had ambushes in the rear to block Guan Yu''s retreat.


    When Guan Yu''s soldiers met with long spearmen, long guns poked at each other. They only heard the sound of puffing. Big guns poked into the soldiers'' bodies and spattered countless blood.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    The speed of the retreat of the soldiers under Guan Yu''s command was blocked, and they could not retreat any faster.


    Catch Ma Chao''s chance quickly. When he killed Guan Yu, the long gun shook, and he swept across with a sharp sweep. With a click, the leg of the horse broke and Guan Yu fell to the ground.


    Ma Chao knows Guan Yu''s power.


    Guan Yu on horseback has great impact power and is not easy to attack. Especially now, there is no horse, only to break the legs of the horse, let Guan Yu fall to the ground.


    When Guan Yu fell to the ground, Ma Chao stepped forward with an arrow, and the golden spear of tiger head Zhan stabbed out.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun pierces the ground.


    Fortunately, Guan Yu''s quick reaction enabled him to evade. After Guan Yu tumbled, another carp rolled. He quickly stood up, and the green dragon Yanyue knife turned in the air, and it had been cut down.


    The light of the knife falls as fast as lightning.


    It''s a tremendous blow.


    Ma Chao raised his gun to block it. When the blade and the barrel collided, Ma Chao would not retreat, and would bear Guan Yu''s power. Without the power of the war horse, Guan Yu''s power is quite strong, but in fact, Guan Yu''s power has been weakened a lot, and the green dragon Yanyue sword can''t produce the strongest power.


    Ma Chao has a big gun. The gun goes like a dragon and snake and stabs out constantly.


    Little cold light, flickering.


    Although Guan Yu was steady, his face was full of urgency. He should not only resist Ma Chao''s crazy attack, but also pay attention to the changes of the surrounding situation.


    The soldiers under his command are getting more and more dead and wounded, and they are being killed one by one.


    After all, he has only 6000 men under his command, and Ma Chao has brought more than 20000. Such a lineup gap makes the soldiers under Ma Chao more brave.


    The soldiers under Guan Yu''s command are tired of resisting, with countless casualties. When Ma Chao and Guan Yu fight, his eyes suddenly brighten, because when Guan Yu observes the surrounding situation, there is a gap on his chest.


    He urged the golden gun of tiger head Zhan in his hand, one shot quickly forward.


    "Whew!"


    The point of the gun broke through the air. At the next moment, the sharp point of the gun directly penetrated into Guan Yu''s right shoulder.


    One shot, straight into the muscle.


    At the moment of penetration, Ma Chao stirred his hand and quickly drew out the tip of the gun, bringing out a tent of blood.Guan Yu snorted, gritting his teeth and enduring the pain from his shoulder. Although he injured his right shoulder, he ignored it and fought with Ma Chao again. It''s just that Guan Yu can''t go all out to fight with Ma Chao. He always has to pay attention to the situation around him.


    That''s it. You''re going to get shot.


    It''s a vicious circle.


    The more so Guan Yu is, the more difficult he is. After a while, Guan Yu left six or seven scars on his whole body. He was like a bloody man, and his whole body was covered with blood.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    Guan Yu''s breath was more rapid.


    His face was also a little pale and painful. At this time, Guan Yu knew that he could not escape, but he was not reconciled. He wants to kill Ma Chao, but his strength is not enough to kill Ma Chao.


    Ma Chaolang said: "Guan Yu, surrender immediately. I will spare you from death."


    "No way!"


    Guan Yu murmured.


    The green dragon Yanyue sword in his hand is more and more fierce, but even if Guan Yu suddenly breaks out a fierce attack, in a twinkling of an eye, the attack disappears completely, and he is beaten by Ma.


    "Dang!"


    Gun and blade impact, Guan Yu pedal back, unable to stabilize the body.


    He kept retreating.


    At this moment, Guan Yu''s breathing seems to be extremely difficult, even the sound of breathing is like a blower, constantly whistling. Under such a premise, Guan Yu himself became more and more difficult. Just as he retreated, Ma Chao stepped forward with great strides, holding a golden spear in his hand.


    In the bright sunlight, the tip of the gun turned into a streamer and poked in front of Guan Yu''s heart. With a puff, the tip of the gun had broken its armor and penetrated directly into the heart.


    Guan Yu clenched his teeth and summoned up his last strength. He sticks out his left hand and drags Ma Chao''s golden gun. With his left hand, he swings the green dragon Yanyue knife to kill Ma Chao.


    But he swung his hand, but he was exhausted. Ma Chao, in particular, took a hard pull out. The tip of the gun passed through Guan Yu''s palm, cutting the skin of the palm, and the heart was spattered with blood.


    At this moment, Guan Yu''s breath began to weaken, and the light in front of him began to dim.


    "Big brother, afterlife..."


    He opened his mouth. As soon as he said that, he plopped and fell back to the ground. Guan Yu''s green dragon Yanyue sword fell to the ground with a bang.

 Chapter 929

    "If Guan Yu is killed, those who come down will not be killed!"


    After Ma Chao killed Guan Yu, he cried out. With Ma Chao''s roaring, the rest of the soldiers also roared. In a short time, the news spread to the whole soldiers under Guan Yu''s command.


    Not far from Guan Yu, Zhou Cang heard the news that Guan Yu had been killed, quickly defeated the Qin soldiers who were attacking him, and came to Ma Chao''s direction with a knife.


    Seeing Ma Chao, Zhou Cang roared, "Ma Chao, take your life!"


    He rushed to Ma Chao with a knife.


    For Zhou Cang who killed him, Ma Chao had no pity and went up with his gun. The fight between the two sides, a face-to-face, Zhou Cang was Ma Chao a shot stabbed in the heart, was a shot result of life.


    Those who avenge Guan Yu are constantly killed.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    However, there are only a few people willing to die and continue to fight. Most of the soldiers saw that after Guan Yu was killed, Zhou Cang also died on the battlefield, so they no longer fought, but chose to surrender.


    The fighting on the battlefield is coming to an end. An hour later, the battlefield is cleaned up. Ma Chao burned the bodies of the soldiers who died in the war. After that, he asked people to take Guan Yu''s body and start to retreat quickly.


    After the army returned to the barracks, Ma Chao went straight to the Chinese army tent and said, "General Zhang, at the end of this war, Guan Yu will be killed and his body will be brought back. In addition, more than 4000 soldiers were captured, and all the other soldiers under Guan Yu''s command were killed. In this war, we lost less than 800 troops, which can be described as a complete victory. This time, Liu Bei lost Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, but he became a lonely family. "


    Before that, Liu Bei''s third brother died on the tower of Yin county. Up to now, Guan Yu has died in Xiangcheng County.


    Liu Bei was completely defeated.


    With a smile on his face, Zhang chin said, "yes, yes, General Ma has worked hard."


    Ma Chao said: "humble duty is not hard!"


    Zhang Yan looked at Jia Xu and said, "Jia Shangshu, now Guan Yu has been killed, and his body is in our hands. This time, it''s a great chance to deal with Liu Bei. Do you think we should approach Xiangcheng County and stimulate Liu Bei? "


    "I want to go."


    Jia Yu said with a smile: "Liu Bei intended to send Guan Yu to Pingyu county. Now, for Liu Bei, the loss of Guan Yu is more painful than the loss of tens of thousands of troops. No soldiers can be recruited, but there is only one Guan Yu in the world. Now that Guan Yu is dead, there will be no more Guan Yu. "


    Zhang said: "if so, then send troops."


    Immediately, Zhang jaw stood up and arranged for people to go down to mobilize the army.


    In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhang Yan had led his army to Xiangcheng County. When the army arrived outside the county, Zhang yance immediately went to the front. He came to the front of the army, looked up to the city floor, and said in a loud voice, "this general is Zhang Yan. Where is Liu Bei?"


    Liu Bei stepped forward and said, "Zhang Yan, you have betrayed the old master. How dare you bark in front of me?"


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s words are sharp.


    This is intended to learn from Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu won by one mouth.


    However, when Liu Bei mocked Zhang Yan, he was a little nervous. Because Zhang jaw had never taken the initiative to attack before, but now he took the initiative to kill, which made him very confused.


    Zhang jaw said with a smile: "good birds choose trees to live, wise officials choose their masters. Yuan Shaogang is headstrong and doesn''t know how to use people. It is a matter of obedience for me to submit to your highness. Liu Bei, your words don''t hold water. But there is one thing that Ben will come to you now. "


    Liu Bei said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang said, "I have a gift for you."


    With that, as soon as he waved, some soldiers carried Guan Yu''s body forward and laid it in front of Zhang''s jaw. Liu Bei''s eyesight is excellent. He can see Guan Yu''s blood at a glance.


    Boom!!


    There seemed to be thunder in Liu Bei''s mind.


    His feet a soft, the whole person will collapse directly. Fortunately, Zhuge Liang''s quick eyes and quick hands helped Liu Bei to stabilize his figure. Rao is so, Liu Bei''s body is also slightly shaking. That pair of eyes, immediately full of tears, crystal tears like broken line of rain, constantly flowing out of the eyes.


    "Long cloud, long cloud!"


    Liu Bei tried to roar, his face full of pain. Both Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are not only Liu Bei''s right-hand men. They are not only Liu Bei''s brothers, but also people who have lived together for more than ten years.


    Such a person has penetrated into Liu Bei''s mind and is indispensable.


    Zhang Fei is dead!


    Now, Guan Yu is dead again!


    Liu Bei''s face was full of pain, and he murmured: "Yunchang, it''s brother who hurt you. If big brother doesn''t let you go back to Pingyu County, you won''t die. "


    He looked miserable.


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s heart is like a knife. When Liu Bei coughed, he coughed with a loud voice. His painful cough even made Liu Bei''s cheeks red.


    "Poof!"Suddenly, Liu Bei spewed out a mouthful of blood.


    When he was dark, he fell back. Fortunately, Zhuge Liang helped him, but Liu Bei didn''t fall down. Zhuge Liang pinched Liu Bei hard, which made Liu Bei wake up slowly.


    Zhuge Liang said, "Lord, take care of yourself."


    Liu Bei was a little dizzy. He was in a trance. He looked at Zhang Yan outside the city and bit his teeth and said, "Zhang Yan, you kill my second younger brother. You and I will die together. I will kill you."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang jaw laughed and said, "the most powerful thing about Liu Bei is not his indomitable ambition or his fighting spirit, but his swore Kung Fu. Zhang Fei is dead, you have to swear. Now that Guan Yu is dead, you have to swear again. "


    "Do you know that Guan Yu was not willing to surrender from the beginning to the end. Originally, he wanted to surrender him, but he didn''t want to. He would rather die than surrender. So you see, there are countless wounds on his body, and there are bloodstains all over his body. "


    "Who is to blame for Guan Yu''s death?"


    "I blame you, Liu Bei. It''s your fault."


    Zhang said: "this war is between the king of Qin and the state of Wei. You just don''t have the strength to step in. If it wasn''t for your self righteousness, how could Guan Yu be killed. You are to blame for all this


    When Liu Bei heard Zhang''s words, his face changed again and again.


    At this time, Liu Bei was in mourning. All of a sudden, I heard Zhang''s words, and I fell into dullness, even remorse in my heart.


    Yes, if it wasn''t for him, Guan Yu would not have died.


    It''s all his fault.


    Seeing this, Zhuge Liang said hurriedly: "Lord, it has nothing to do with you. Zhang said this in order to attack you. In fact, the killing of general Guan was due to his low duty and thoughtlessness, so that general Guan fell into ambush. All this is a crime of humble duty. Please punish it. "


    Cao Ren said, "Alas, why do you blame yourself. At this point, you blame yourself one by one. Apart from making Zhang Yan laugh and Guan Yu die, what can you do? The Duke of Chu is Guan Yu''s elder brother. After Guan Yu was killed, he should rectify his spirit and fight with Zhang Yan to get revenge. "


    "Yes, revenge, I want revenge!"


    When Liu Bei heard this, he clenched his fist, and his eyes were full of hatred.


    He wants revenge!

 Chapter 930

    Seeing that there was no movement on the upper floor of the city, Liu Bei said again, "Liu Bei, Zhang Fei is dead, Guan Yu is dead. Next, it''s your turn. Especially when Guan Yu was killed, the six thousand elite he took away were completely destroyed. Think about it. What will happen to Runan County? "


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face changed slightly.


    Previously immersed in grief, did not consider the reality of the problem. Now, Zhang reminded him that there was still a mess in Runan County.


    I heard what Cao Ren said just now. He was ready to cheer up and fight with Zhang Yan. But now Zhang jaw''s words, and pull him back to reality, once again see the cruelty of reality.


    It''s all back to the far point.


    Runan County was in crisis, his Chu state was in trouble, even he lost 6000 elite, and his army was weakened again. In Kunyang County, Liu Bei had lost some soldiers before, but now he has lost another 6000, so that Liu Bei''s strength has been greatly weakened.


    Zhang continued: "Liu Bei, I will give you a chance. If you leave Xiangcheng County immediately and no longer care about Cao Cao''s affairs, you will not be killed and you will be allowed to go south to Runan County. "


    Liu Bei said, "you will be so kind."


    "Of course!"


    Zhang chin said in a deep voice, "now that I have said it, I will do what I say and let you go south."


    He only said he would let Liu Bei go south and not kill him, but he didn''t say he would not attack him.


    It''s a stingy word.


    It depends on whether Liu Bei is so naive.


    Although Liu Bei was angry and worried about the situation in Runan County, he could not retreat to the South now. Otherwise, when he went northward, everything would be in vain.


    Liu Bei took a deep breath and said, "general Cao Ren, this army has arrived here. Don''t we attack? Let Zhang Yan abuse outside the city? "


    Cao Ren said: "Xuande Gong, if you go out of the city now, you will be hit by Zhang Yan''s calculation. What Zhang Ya needs is to get us out of the city and not want us to stick to it. What''s more, we are short of troops and can only stick to Xiangcheng County. As long as Zhang Yan''s army is held back, after the king of Wei defeated Zhang Xiu, this game of chess will naturally live. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord, I''m sorry. Now I can only stick to it, not fight."


    "Damn it


    Liu Bei beat the wall with one fist.


    He is not reconciled.


    Liu Bei big sleeve a brush, said: "Kong Ming, the next thing, to you to deal with."


    With that, he turned and left.


    Zhuge Liang looked at Cao Ren and said, "general Cao Ren, my Lord is sad. Please forgive me."


    Cao Ren said: "I can understand and have a deep understanding. Cao Hong was killed in Wei Dynasty, and now XiahouDun is also killed in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Not only Xuande Gong died, but also the king of Wei. But no matter what, in this situation, we can only stick to it. "


    Zhang jaw looked up to see Liu Bei and did not speak, again: "Liu Bei, how, is speechless?"


    Zhuge Liang took the words and said, "Zhang Yan, it''s impossible for you to stimulate the LORD with words. We are guarding Xiangcheng County. It''s impossible for us to go out of the city. As far as Runan County is concerned, it is guarded by a large army. Even if Huang Zhong kills him, he may not be able to win. You know, in the East County, there are full Cao Jun. With Zhang Xiu''s strength, we can''t carry it. Once you are defeated, you can see how arrogant you are


    "Oh, it''s Zhuge Kongming. I heard that you and Pang Shangshu of the state of Qin are brothers of the same school. It''s a pity that Pang Shangshu is powerful now, but you are in danger when you work for Liu Bei. You Zhuge Liang either has no ability, or you have chosen the wrong Lord


    Zhuge Liang confidently said: "if you drink water, you will know what is warm and cold. I work for my Lord and win his trust. Even if the situation is critical, Zhuge Liang enjoys it. "


    Zhang maxillofacial way: "it''s a pleasure in pain."


    Zhuge Liang said, "it''s better to be happy in the bitter, or enjoy it. In a word, it''s all my Zhuge Liang''s choice, and I will never regret it. "


    Zhuge Liang did not regret his choice.


    He is a man of ambition.


    When he was in Jingzhou, he was unwilling to let him work for Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu''s strength is strong, let him work for Zhang Xiu, but there are so many counselors under Zhang Xiu''s command that it''s impossible to trust him alone.


    So if let him choose again, he will still choose to work for Liu Bei instead of Zhang Xiu.


    This is Zhuge Liang''s choice.


    Seeing that Zhuge Liang was neither humble nor arrogant, Zhang knew that it was useless to motivate generals. He also knew that Liu Bei''s and Cao Ren''s troops could not fight. Under such circumstances, he had to go back to the army, look at Jia Xu and ask him, "Jia Shangshu, now Cao Ren can''t come out, and Liu Bei is shrinking. If they don''t fight, what shall we do? "


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "we are not in a hurry. We retreat, and at the same time, we quickly pass the news to Huang Zhong, so that Huang Zhong can make a further breakthrough. As long as Huang Zhong breaks Pingyu County, there will be a breakthrough in this war. Today''s situation is not enough to completely crush Cao Ren. ""Where''s Guan Yu''s body?" he said


    Jia Xu replied: "naturally take it back, then cut off the head, keep it in lime, and rush south to Huang Zhong''s hands. Let Huang Zhong use Guan Yu''s head to break Pingyu county. Now Pingyu County, without Liu Bei, once Huang Zhong uses Guan Yu''s head, it will be enough to break Pingyu county. "


    Zhang jaw said with a smile: "Jia Shangshu is still smart, so do it."


    Immediately, Zhang ordered the withdrawal.


    The army retreated quickly and took away Guan Yu''s body. When he got back to the camp, Zhang Yan quickly arranged for the sentry to send Guan Yu''s head and Qinglong Yanyue sword out.


    The sentry was on his way as fast as he could. It was only three days before he entered Runan and came to Huang Zhong''s army. Now Huang Zhong, stationed troops outside Pingyu County, began to attack Pingyu county.


    However, the city of Pingyu county is solid. For a while, Huang Zhong has not conquered Pingyu County, and the situation is temporarily deadlocked.


    When Huang Zhong received Guan Yu''s head and the blue dragon Yanyue sword, he immediately arranged for Sima Yi to come to the camp and said, "military adviser, in Yingchuan County, Liu Bei couldn''t get out, but Guan Yu rushed south to help Pingyu county and was killed by Ma Chao. Now Zhang Yan has sent Guan Yu''s head, hoping that we can break Pingyu county with the help of Guan Yu''s head. "


    Sima Yi said happily, "General Huang, the head of Yu is really enough to break Pingyu county."


    Huang Zhong said: "Sima''s military strategist plans to set up a general?"


    Sima Yi said: "in fact, it''s just bluffing and intimidating. Even if Guan Yu was killed, we lied that Liu Bei was defeated in Yingchuan county. Guan Yu was killed and Liu Bei fled to Jizhou."


    "Without Guan Yu''s head, it would be hard to fake the truth. But with Guan Yu''s head, and Guan Yu''s green dragon Yanyue sword, we can create the truth with the help of the time difference of information. "


    "In particular, the main road to Yingchuan County in the north is under our control. The Chu army in Pingyu county can''t get exact information, so after the news walk, Liu Bei''s Chu army''s morale collapses. If we want to win, it''s easy."


    Sima Yi has sharp eyes.


    Along with Huang Zhong, he also hopes to win early and then go north to join Zhang Xi.


    Huang Zhong praised: "what the military adviser said is true!"


    Immediately, Huang Zhong ordered to mobilize the army, and then with the army under his command, he went to Pingyu county again.

 Chapter 931

    Huang Zhong took the flying bear army to Pingyu County, where the army was stationed in formation. One by one, the soldiers were fighting with high morale, and they were all ready. Huang Zhong urged his horse forward and said in a loud voice, "where is Jian Yong?"


    Huang Zhong knows the situation of Pingyu County, because it is Jian Yong who is now in Pingyu county.


    In addition to Jian Yong, there are mi Zhu and Mi Fang.


    Jian Yong now has big bags under his eyes and a tired look on his face. These days, Huang Zhong''s constant attacks on the county also caused great pressure on him, making Jian Yong''s spirit haggard. Rao is so, Jian Yong is still supporting him.


    Jian Yongshen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Huang Zhong, even if you take a large army and kill outside Pingyu County, we have enough defense equipment and enough food on the upper floor of Pingyu county. It''s impossible for you to break Pingyu county with only 20000 or 30000 troops. "


    "Alas..."


    Huang Zhong sighed and said, "how stupid you are


    Jianyong said: "you want to attack, attack is, I Jianyong waiting for you on the upper floor of the city."


    Huang Zhong continued: "Jian Yong, even Liu Bei has fled to Jizhou. The state of Chu is dead in name, but you have to stick to it. Why, Jianyong? "


    Jian Yong said: "a bunch of nonsense!"


    Huang Zhonglang said: "according to the latest news from Yingchuan County, Liu Bei led his troops northward and was ambushed in Kunyang County, resulting in huge losses. When Liu Bei arrived in Xiangcheng County to join Cao Ren, he was attacked again. Even Cao Ren was defeated. "


    "After Liu Bei''s defeat, his retreat to the South was blocked, and he took his army north to Dongjun, ready to go to Jizhou."


    "Liu Bei abandoned you, Jian Yong, but you still have to stick to it."


    Huang Zhong said: "I feel unworthy for you. It''s a pity that you are such a stupid and loyal minister. You are determined to work for Liu Bei, but Liu Bei has already abandoned you. "


    Jianyong said, "you can coax the ghost."


    He didn''t believe Huang Zhong''s words at all, because Liu Bei had brought 30000 talents. In addition, there are Zhuge Liang''s staff around Liu Bei. Huang Zhong doesn''t believe what Liu Bei said when he was defeated and fled.


    Even the soldiers in the garrison did not believe it.


    This is nothing.


    Huang Zhong tut said, "Jian Yong, you don''t believe me. You know, Guan Yu has been killed. Liu Bei is very poor and alone. He is a lost dog. "


    Jian Yong said: "whatever you say, it''s nothing. General Guan is so powerful that he can''t be killed. You''re such a good Huang Zhong that you''re telling lies with your eyes open. "


    Huang Zhong said, "you don''t believe me. It seems that you can''t believe me without proof."


    With that, as soon as Huang Zhong waved, some soldiers came forward.


    This soldier''s hand is holding a brocade box, at the same time another soldier carries the green dragon Yan Yue knife to come forward. Not long after, the two soldiers came to the tower, put down the brocade box and green dragon Yanyue knife, and quickly withdrew.


    Huang Zhong said, "Jian Yong, you don''t believe what Ben Jiang said. Then take a look. Inside the brocade box is Guan Yu''s head, and the sword on one side is his green dragon Yanyue sword. "


    Jianyong looked down.


    He knows Dao. It''s really Qinglong Yanyue Dao.


    At this moment, Jian Yong''s heart sank down. When he looked at the brocade box, he felt a little nervous. Especially on the upper floor of the city, the soldiers who are now garrisoned also look at the brocade box on the lower floor of the city.


    The soldiers began to talk.


    After all, the green dragon Yanyue sword is in front of you. You can see it at a glance. With a wave of Jian Yong''s hand, some soldiers came down from the tower, opened the gate, quickly brought the brocade box and the green dragon Yanyue sword into the city, and then took them to the tower.


    Jian Yong looks at the green dragon Yanyue sword in front of him with a dignified look.


    Everything in front of him worried him.


    Even his hands trembled slightly. If this is really Guan Yu, if Liu Bei really fled to Jizhou in the north, what should he do?


    What should the army do?


    Now in front of countless soldiers, it is impossible for Jian Yong not to open the brocade box. Otherwise, the soldiers in the army, on the contrary, think that this is Guan Yu''s head, because he dare not look at it.


    "Open up!"


    Jianyong said.


    With the arrangement of Jian Yong, the soldiers immediately opened the brocade box, revealing Guan Yu''s unique cheek. Although Guan Yu''s head is antiseptic with lime powder, Guan Yu''s head has never changed. He still has a red face, red eyes and a beard under his jaw. He can tell at a glance that it is Guan Yu.


    WOW!!


    On the tower, countless soldiers were in an uproar.


    Guan Yu is really dead!


    This head is really Guan Yu''s.


    This means that what Huang Zhong said before was not empty but true. After seeing Guan Yu''s situation, all the soldiers no longer doubted the truth of Huang Zhong''s words. Those who had preconceived that Liu Bei had fled to Jizhou thought that the 30000 troops led by Liu Bei had been completely defeated.


    Gudong!


    Jian Yong swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a look of horror.On one side, MI Zhu and Mi Fang are worried and uneasy when they see this behind the scenes. Originally, Liu Bei was outside, and they were able to stick to it, and they had the strength to stick to it. But now that Guan Yu is dead and Liu Bei is fleeing again, can they still stick to it?


    Liu Bei is the backbone!


    In Pingyu County, Liu Bei is stable.


    But now Liu Bei fled to Pingyu County, as if he had lost his backbone and Optimus Prime. The expression on each face was completely flustered, and there was no more confidence.


    Mi Zhu asked, "Lord Jane, what shall we do now?"


    Jian Yong was also worried at this time. After all, under the current situation, he couldn''t figure out a way to crack it. It''s hard for him to open his eyes and tell lies, saying that this is not Guan Yu''s head, and that this is Huang Zhong''s forgery.


    Someone has to believe it.


    Jian Yong is helpless.


    Jian Yong is not a man of indecision. He said in a voice: "no matter what, we must stick to it to the end. The Lord is here, we must stick to it. The Lord is gone, we have to stick to it. What''s more, now it''s just the Lord going north to Jizhou. As long as we stick to it in Runan County, there will always be a time when the clouds will open and the moon will shine. "


    When he said this, no one agreed.


    Without Liu Bei, the soldiers guarding the city would have no fighting spirit in their hearts. Guan Yu''s head, like the last straw to defeat Liu Bei''s army, made everyone panic.


    Huang Zhong didn''t have to look at it, but he knew that it must be an inner struggle. He said again, "Jian Yong, Liu Bei is just a mediocre master. Your loyalty to such a person is a waste of spirit. It''s a waste of time for you to work for such a person. Especially now that Liu Bei has fled, you immediately open the gate and surrender. "


    Jian Yong clenched her teeth and said, "you can''t let me open the gate."


    When Huang Zhong heard this, he was ready to order an attack.


    Since Jian Yong didn''t want to go out of the city to surrender, he attacked by force. After the collapse of Liu Bei''s soldiers'' morale, it is easy for him to defeat them.


    At this time, Sima Yi rode forward.


    After Sima Yi whispered something in Huang Zhong''s ear, Huang Zhong raised his eyebrows and immediately said, "Jian Yong, don''t you think about yourself, don''t you think about Liu Bei''s wife and children?"


    "Now that you surrender in Kaicheng, you will promise that you will be safe, even with Liu Bei''s family. You can take care of them with you."


    "If you refuse to surrender, when I break Pingyu County, though you won''t kill soldiers or plunder the people, you will certainly cut down the grass roots and kill all Liu Bei''s family."


    Huang Zhong directly threatened.


    At this moment, Jian Yong''s face changed greatly.


    Huang Zhong''s words, simply pinched Jianyong''s seven inches, made Jianyong throw a rat''s paw.

 Chapter 932

    Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are the most nervous brothers. The reason is very simple. Their little sister Mi Huan is Liu Bei''s woman. So the two brothers also want to keep Mi Huan''s life, and they don''t want Mi Huan to die so young.


    This is their view.


    However, they didn''t take any action. They both focused on Jianyong.


    Waiting for Jianyong''s decision.


    Huang Zhong rode outside the city and said again, "Jian Yong, it''s about the life of Liu Bei''s wife and children. It depends on your choice. Of course, you can fight to the end regardless of their lives. But I''m afraid that your army will not be able to stop our general. In front of our flying bear army, Pingyu county can''t hold on. "


    Jian Yong felt very uncomfortable.


    It''s too hard to choose.


    Jian Yong''s eyes turned and fell on MI Zhu, saying, "general Mi Zhu, what do you think?"


    Mi Zhu said, "I think it can go down!"


    He didn''t beat around the Bush and spoke directly, because on the premise of MI Huan''s life, he was just a elder brother and no longer a minister under Liu Bei''s command. His first consideration is the life of MI Huan.


    Hearing Mi Zhu''s reply, Jian Yong didn''t feel surprised. She took a deep breath and ordered: "open the gate, we will no longer resist and surrender!"


    As soon as these words came out, Jianyong seemed to be paralyzed.


    I''m tired.


    With his hands on the wall, his heart was empty and his brain was blank.


    He surrendered!


    He opened Pingyu county.


    Although Jian Yong knew the consequences of doing so, he gave Runan to Huang Zhong. But in the current situation, the morale of the army collapsed. Jian Yong was helpless and had no way to solve it.


    That''s all he can do!


    Soon, the door creaked and opened.


    Huang Zhong didn''t come forward immediately after he saw this. He said in a loud voice: "Mr. Jian, since you choose to open the gate and surrender, how can you stay on the tower as a person in Pingyu county. You go out of the city and surrender with your troops. Do you want to wait for ben to enter the city and ambush his soldiers? "


    Jian Yong didn''t really have that idea.


    It''s too hard to ambush Huang Zhong!


    Jian Yong did not refuse, immediately with his soldiers, down the tower, out of the county to outside the city.


    Huang Zhong laughs and immediately arranges for people to come forward and detain Jian Yong, MI Zhu, MI Fang and others, as well as control the rest of the soldiers in Pingyu county.


    After the army entered the city and took control of Pingyu County, Huang Zhongcai took the army into the city.


    Jian Yong looked at Huang Zhong and said, "General Huang, please keep your promise and don''t slaughter innocent people. In particular, do not affect my Lord''s family. "


    "Don''t worry, I''ll tell you what to say!"


    Huang Zhong said with a smile. He looked at Jian Yong and said, "Jian Yong, actually I lied to you."


    Jian Yong''s eyebrows rose, a little puzzled.


    "Guan Yu is dead, but Liu Bei hasn''t escaped yet. He is still in Xiangcheng County, Yingchuan County," Huang said. Originally, Liu Bei went north with his army and was ready to go to Xiangcheng County to help Cao Ren. He was indeed killed in Kunyang County, resulting in huge losses. "


    "But later, Liu Bei arrived safely in Xiangcheng County."


    "The problem is that when Liu Bei learned that Pingyu county had been attacked, he arranged for Guan Yu and his soldiers to withdraw to Pingyu County, ready to rush for help, and finally Guan Yu was killed. Now Liu Bei is still in Xiangcheng County. "


    Huang Zhong said with a smile: "however, Liu Bei''s life should not be so easy now. After all, Guan Yu died first, and now even Pingyu County, the rear area, has been lost. "


    Boom!!


    Jian yongru was struck by lightning.


    Cheated!


    He was cheated by Huang Zhong.


    Jianyong clenched her fist, and her face was full of unwilling look. But the problem is that he has become Huang Zhong''s prisoner and has been restricted by Huang Zhong. Even if he is angry, it doesn''t help.


    After Huang Zhong''s troops stationed in Pingyu County, they detained Jian Yong, MI Zhu and other people, as well as Liu Bei''s family members. After all this, Huang Zhong and Sima Yi were in Pingyu County, so they arranged for soldiers to go to all parts of Runan County to sweep the rest of Runan County.


    Without Liu Bei''s support and Pingyu''s troops, the rest of the counties can''t stop it.


    The news of Huang Zhong''s victory also spread to Zhang Ya and outside Xiangcheng County in the shortest time. When Zhang jaw got the news, his face was full of smiles.


    Liu Bei is dead.


    Zhang Ya called to Jia Xu and said the news of Huang Zhong''s victory in Nanyang County, then said: "Jia Shangshu, now the battle in Nanyang County has won. Next, we are on our way. Now, what do you think to do? "


    For Jia Xu''s plan, Zhang Ya has no trust.


    Jia Xu is almost helpless. Even though Cao Ren is in Xiangcheng County, he is still regarded as dead by Jia Xu. Now that Liu Bei''s rear area is lost, Zhang Ya thinks the time is ripe to deal with Cao Jun in Xiangcheng County.


    When Jia Xu heard what Sima Yi had done in Pingyu County, he also praised him. He said with a smile, "Sima Yi, a young man, was so excited that he was able to subdue people''s troops without fighting and forced to surrender directly to Jian Yong.""It''s a good fight."


    "In that case, we can go out and prepare to attack Xiangcheng County."


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said: "today''s Liu Bei has lost his rear area, and it''s no longer a climate. After we attacked Xiangcheng County and broke Xiangcheng County, the general trend of the whole state of Wei was completely lost. "


    He nodded and ordered to attack.


    With Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Ma Chao, aguli and other generals, he led all the troops and quickly went to the outside of Xiangcheng County.


    Now it''s late April.


    The weather is warm in spring, not very cold, not very hot, is the most comfortable time.


    Zhang Yan went outside the city and said again, "where is Cao Ren?"


    He began to shout again.


    Cao Ren heard Zhang Yan''s voice on the city tower and said in a deep voice, "why, you have been resting for such a long time. Now, it''s time to prepare for a strong attack. I''m Cao Ren, waiting for you to attack. "


    "Yes


    Answer directly.


    Cao Ren said, "I have been waiting for you for a long time. Now that you are making a strong attack on Xiangcheng County, you will have to see what kind of skills you have to break Xiangcheng County. "


    Zhang jaw said with a smile: "don''t worry, don''t worry, and let Liu Bei come out. Liu Bei and I have a few words to say."


    Liu Bei is standing by.


    His face was cold and gloomy. Once upon a time, Liu Bei felt like a spring breeze when he saw people, but now Liu Bei''s face is as heavy as water, and his face collapses all day, as if everyone owes Liu Bei how much money.


    During this time, Liu Bei was immersed in the pain of Guan Yu''s death.


    There was a lot of resentment in him.


    On hearing Zhang''s words, Liu Bei bit his teeth and said, "Zhang, what do you have to say?"


    Zhang Yan said with a smile, "Liu Bei, I''m going to talk to you, but I have another bad news to tell you. This will send Guan Yu''s head and green dragon Yanyue sword to Huang Zhong of Runan County. "


    "Huang Zhong lied and told Jian Yong that Liu Bei fled to Jizhou after he was defeated, while Guan Yu was killed. Regarding Yu''s head and Qinglong Yanyue sword as evidence, Jian Yong believed Huang Zhong''s and finally chose to surrender. "


    "Now Pingyu county is under the control of Huang Zhong."


    Zhang Yan continued: "Huang Zhong''s troops are rapidly sweeping Runan County. It is expected that in half a month at most, the traces of Liu Bei in Runan County will be completely removed. "


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face changed again.


    Another bad news!


    His second younger brother Guan Yu was killed before, and now even Pingyu County in the rear area is lost.


    Liu Bei''s heart was full of regret. In a flash, he was extremely sorry to come to help Cao Cao. If Cao Cao was not rescued, his Chu state might not collapse so quickly.

 Chapter 933

    Cao Ren stood aside, frowning. Because Zhang''s words are completely stimulating Liu Bei and making him lose his mind. So Cao Ren quickly said: "Duke Chu, this is Zhang Yan''s intention, because we are stuck in Xiangcheng County, so Zhang Yan does it intentionally. He does everything in order to break Xiangcheng County."


    "I know!"


    Liu Bei is biting his teeth, but his heart is still very remorseful.


    He''s responsible for everything.


    He thinks it''s all his fault.


    Liu Bei looked at Cao Ren and said, "even if you know it, you may not be able to suppress your anger. General Cao Ren, not only my second younger brother died in the battlefield, but also the state of Chu was occupied. If it were you, could you hold it back? "


    Cao Ren sighed.


    If it were him, he would not be able to hold back.


    Zhang Yan continued: "Liu Bei, now Pingyu county has fallen, along with your women. Now, are you willing to look at them, helpless? If you surrender now, you can guarantee their safety. "


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang jaw, you and I are at odds."


    Even though his family members were captured, when he thought of the ending of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he couldn''t keep calm in his heart. He couldn''t calm down and let him surrender. That''s impossible.


    When he saw this, he did not hesitate.


    He knows it''s useless to talk too much.


    With a wave of his hand, the soldiers under his command launched a direct attack. Under his command are the regular army and the flying Qiang army, both of which are elite. When Liu Bei''s forces were destroyed, Zhang Ya went all out to attack.


    However, Cao Renshan was good at guarding, and he kept every drop of water for a while. Even if Zhang chin tried his best to attack, he could not break Xiangcheng County, but could only form a stalemate.


    Rao is so, Zhang jaw is also a strong attack.


    When Zhang Ya attacked Xiangcheng County constantly, the news sent by Zhang Ya had been sent to Puyang County.


    During this period, Zhang Xiu has been stationed in Puyang County.


    Cao Cao camped outside the city and attacked Puyang County several times, but in the end, he failed to attack Puyang County.


    As a result, Cao Cao was unable to break through.


    Although Zhang Xiu is a lonely soldier in Puyang, in fact, she is relaxed and comfortable, and doesn''t feel anything at all. Because the fierce tiger army under his command was stationed in Puyang County, which was as immovable as a mountain and did not give Cao Cao the slightest chance.


    Inside the tower, in the barracks.


    When Zhang Xiuzheng was inspecting the soldiers'' drill, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu in a hurry and reported: "Your Highness, there is news from Zhang Yan. It should be extremely important to mark it as urgent."


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and opened it for quick reading. When Zhang Xiu finished reading, she couldn''t help laughing, and her face was full of joy.


    Wang Yue inquired: "Your Highness, but Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong have won."


    "Yes," said Zhang Xiu


    After that, he turned and went up to the tower. When he got back to the tower, Zhang Xiu called Gan Ning, Li Ru and Zhang song, looked at several people, and said, "just got the news from Zhang Ya, Ma Chao killed Guan Yu in Xiangcheng County. Now the army led by Huang Zhong has captured Pingyu county and Runan County. "


    As she spoke, Zhang Xiu beamed with a smile and said, "we have won in Yingchuan county and Runan County. It can be said that we have won this battle with Cao Cao in the general direction. "


    Li Ru said with a smile: "Your Highness, whether Zhang Yan or Huang Zhong, each has won. It''s time for us to take action. "


    "In particular, it was reported yesterday that the elite of Langya camp under Chen Dao had been transferred to Puyang County. Now the military camp in dangyin county is just an empty shelf, but Yuan Shao does not dare to act rashly. "


    "Not only that, Zhang Yan''s Heishan army, who left Chang''an with his highness before, also quietly lurked at the border of Dongjun. In addition, there is Zhao Yun''s white horse Yicong. "


    "Our total strength in this war is no less than Cao Cao."


    Li Ru said: "during this period, Cao Cao attacked Puyang County several times, causing huge losses. Today, Cao Cao''s military strength is less than 70000. We can defeat Cao Cao by fighting against him. "


    "It''s time to prepare for a decisive battle," Zhang Xiu said, "but this decisive battle needs to be fully guided to lead Cao Cao to the place where we ambush him. Only in this way can we defeat Cao Cao in one go. If the army of Zhang Yan, Zhao Yun and Chen Dao were allowed to kill us directly, Cao Cao would surely shrink when he saw that we were powerful. "


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu took out the map, looked at it carefully, quickly selected the final location of the ambush, and arranged for people to leave Puyang County quickly to deliver a message to inform Chen Dao, Zhang Yan and others to go to the location of the ambush.


    After arranging everything, Zhang Xiu waited quietly.


    In less than two days, news came back that Chen Dao, Zhang Yan and others were in place and ready to fight at any time.


    Everything is ready.


    But for Zhang Xiu, there is still a lack of east wind, that is, Cao Cao took the initiative to attack.While Zhang Xiu was waiting, a letter was sent to Cao Cao''s desk in Cao''s camp. When Cao Cao saw the contents of the letter, his face was livid and his eyes were gloomy. Compared with Zhang Xiu''s joy, Cao Cao is full of anger.


    Lost again!


    The battle of Yingchuan county was defeated again!


    Although Cao Ren''s army was not defeated from beginning to end, for Cao Cao, the defeat of Liu Bei, the killing of Guan Yu, and even the fall of Runan County were regarded as defeat by Cao Cao.


    The overall situation is extremely unfavorable.


    Although Cao Cao wanted to annex Liu Bei and wipe out Liu Bei in his heart, Liu Bei was defeated by Zhang Xiu''s people, and Runan fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands, which Cao Cao did not want.


    Cao Cao immediately arranged for people to send someone to call Guo Jia and Xun you. He told us about Liu Bei''s defeat and Guan Yu''s killing. Finally, he said, "although Cao Ren is in Xiangcheng County, he still keeps his guard. Overall, the situation is extremely bad. "


    "When Huang Zhong''s army completely sweeps Runan County and goes north to join Zhang Ya, Cao Ren will not be able to keep it."


    "Zhang Xiu is really cunning."


    "Everyone thinks that his army is concentrated in Nanyang County to attack us. But all of a sudden, Huang Zhong quietly went to Jiangxia County, and from Jiangxia to Runan County, he captured Pingyu county and took Liu Bei''s home. "


    Cao Cao said: "this step of Zhang Xiu is extremely poisonous."


    Guo Jia said: "the way to use military force is to take it by surprise. It''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to use military force. However, we can''t manage the war between Yingchuan county and Runan County for the time being. In the current situation, what we need to do is to solve Zhang Xiu first. Only by destroying Zhang Xiu can we reverse the defeat and keep the whole game alive. "


    "It is!"


    Xun you nodded his head and said, "according to our humble position, we must speed up our attack on Puyang County. Even if Puyang County is difficult to attack, it has to go all out to attack. As time goes on, the situation in Yingchuan county will get worse again. I''m afraid it will be difficult to deal with it. "


    Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is guarding Puyang County. It''s like a tortoise shell. It''s helpless. But we have nothing to do with him. The excavation of tunnels and even the construction of fortifications and other measures have been used, but to no avail. "


    Xun you said, "no matter what, we have to attack again."


    Cao Cao rubbed his feet, brushed his sleeves, and said, "it''s better to hit the sun than to choose the right day. That''s all. Attack Puyang again today. I don''t believe it. I still have more than 70000 elite soldiers under my command. I can''t take a Puyang County. "


    When Cao ordered the soldiers to gather, they called out.


    With the assembly of the army under his command, Cao Cao once again led the army to Puyang County.

 Chapter 934

    It didn''t take long for Cao Cao''s army to arrive outside Puyang County.


    The mighty army was stationed in a fierce manner.


    This momentum is shocking.


    Cao Cao''s horse was standing outside the city. As usual, he came to the front of the army, looked at the tower of the city, and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, my king has come to attack the city again. Today, Wang Shi will take this Puyang County. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Cao Cao, if I were you, I would not fight again this time, but attack the city directly. I''ve got news of the war in Yingchuan county. I think you''ll get it, too. "


    "It is clear that Liu Bei''s hometown, Runan County, has been broken. Mingming Liu Bei''s second younger brother Guan Yu has been killed. Only you and I know the news, but your soldiers don''t know it. "


    "You attack hard, so that the morale of your soldiers will not be affected."


    "But now when you come here, I''m going to tell you the news. You arranged for Cao Ren to guard Xiangcheng County. Didn''t you just want Liu Bei to help you? But now Liu Bei has completely lost his chance. He can''t turn over and even lose his family. How can he help you guard Xiangcheng County? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s impossible for Cao Ren''s 30000 excellent soldiers to have a foothold in Xiangcheng County. Cao Cao, you''ve made another mistake. "


    Cao Cao said in a loud voice: "if you want Zhang Xiu to tell me the news, I know it. That''s right. I made you say it on purpose. I just want to let all Wei soldiers know that we have to win this battle. "


    "It''s a war of destruction."


    "If you can''t win, you will lose!"


    "In this war, we have to win. We can only win, not lose."


    Cao Cao turned his horse''s head, turned a little and looked at the soldiers of the state of Wei. He drew his sword from his waist and exclaimed, "sons, we will win this battle. We had no way back. We defeated and killed Zhang Xiu. Since then, the state of Wei has prospered. "


    "Kill


    Cao Cao cried out.


    "Kill


    Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others roared together.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the roar of the mountain roared into the sky. Tens of thousands of people''s shouts, gathered together, the momentum is incomparable, just the impact of this voice, has made people tremble.


    Zhang Xiu stands on the tower, but she smiles.


    Cao Cao deserves to be Cao Cao.


    When it comes to emergency response and the use of troops to run the army, it can be called everyone. It is clear that Zhang Xiu''s words are intended to weaken the morale of Cao Cao''s army. However, after Cao Cao''s words, the situation has been reversed. Instead of weakening the morale, the soldiers are brave and high spirited.


    "Kill


    Cao Cao turns his horse around and points his sword at the tower of Puyang County.


    At the command, the army marched forward and launched another attack. The number of soldiers mobilized to attack in this wave is no less than 20000. All kinds of siege equipment are constantly throwing at the tower to suppress the defensive power of the tower.


    Zhang Xiu is still not impatient, ordered his soldiers to resist steadily. When resisting, Zhang Xiu looks at Gan Ning and asks, "Xing Ba, is everything arranged?"


    "It''s arranged!"


    Gan Ning nodded.


    Gan Ning had already kept in mind the previous plan for the war and the things to be carried out in the future. He had arranged for it early, so he was not worried at all and commanded the soldiers to resist steadily.


    The two sides fought on the tower, shouting and killing.


    Even if Wei soldiers occasionally ascended the city tower, the garrison side was still as stable as Mount Tai, and quickly killed Cao Wei soldiers who ascended the city, making it impossible for the other side to break through.


    Time goes by little.


    At noon, the fighting did not stop and continued. Shortly after noon, Zhang Xiu saw that the fight was burning, but she did not stay any longer. With Li Ru, Zhang Song and others, she left the South Gate of the fight and went to the north gate of Puyang County.


    Zhang Xiu is leaving Puyang County.


    After Zhang Xiu left for about two quarters of an hour, Gan Ning gave the order to retreat.


    All soldiers, break through to the north gate.


    One by one, the soldiers retreated without the slightest love of war. When the soldiers led by Gan Ning retreated to the north gate, Zhang Xiu had already left with people. The cavalry of the fierce tiger army was escorted by the left and right wings, and the large troops retreated quickly.


    This situation quickly spread to Cao Cao''s ears.


    When Cao Cao learned about it, he immediately ordered the pursuit. In fact, Cao Cao''s heart also suspected that Zhang Xiu''s retreat was intentional, and there might be ambush. After all, Zhang Xiu''s Langya camp was in Hanoi county.


    It''s always there.


    But now, Cao Cao must defeat Zhang Xiu, not completely crush Zhang Xiu''s army. Once he leaves, Zhang Xiu may enter Dongjun again. So that Cao Cao could not go south to Yingchuan county to solve the chaos.


    Knowing that there might be risks, Cao Cao would have to hunt them down.


    Cao Cao''s pursuit this time arranged for Lu Bu to lead the tiger and leopard to kill himself. The tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Cao''s command is the best among the elite and the most effective cavalry.Lu Bu himself is a great general.


    He took the tiger and leopard to chase. The cavalry galloped and pursued quickly. Although it took about two quarters of an hour, he also caught up with the Qin soldiers who fell behind.


    The tiger and leopard are riding in pursuit.


    The offensive is extremely fierce.


    The Qin soldiers who fell in the rear could not escape at all. However, the army under Zhang Xiu''s command still retreated rapidly. Puyang County, half an hour away from a place, when the evacuation.


    It''s the road to Hanoi County, and it''s empty.


    Lu Bu pursued with tiger and leopard riding. Behind Lu Bu, there were Cao Cao''s other cavalry chasing him. Finally, Cao Cao''s army chased him.


    Zhang Xiu at this time, no longer evacuate, he issued a counter offensive order.


    The cavalry of the fierce tiger army, kill them directly.


    The cavalry of the fierce tiger army fought against the elite of the tiger and leopard cavalry, but Lu Bu led his troops to the battle. For a moment, the cavalry of the fierce tiger army could not resist.


    Zhang Xiu is ordered to attack.


    Even if we are defeated, we should attack.


    The army''s mighty counterattack, a soldier full of energy, are not in retreat.


    "Boom!"


    At this time, in the back of Zhang Xiu, there was a mighty sound of horse''s hooves. It''s like the sound of horse''s hooves, which comes from far and near, and even the ground vibrates slightly.


    Lu Bu looked up with a smile in his mouth.


    Cao Cao had expected that.


    If Zhang Xiu has no backhand, it is impossible to retreat.


    Not long after that, the cavalry of Langya camp led by Chen Zhi had already stepped into the battlefield and entered the tiger and leopard cavalry. Together with the fierce tiger army, they fought against the tiger and leopard cavalry.


    The two armies converged to cover up quickly.


    Even though Lu Bu is a strong individual, among the thousands of cavalry, Lu Bu''s personal bravery is negligible. Even if he could take the soldiers forward, Lu Bu''s personal courage was useless after the cavalry was suppressed.


    It''s not working.


    "Kill


    All of a sudden, there was another cry of killing, coming from the rear of Lubu.


    But Xu Chu and the Wei cavalry had already killed him again. After entering the battlefield, the cavalry led by Xu Chu went straight to Chen''s position to intercept Chen''s cavalry of Langya camp.


    The two sides fought and fought together.


    And the two cavalry and the tiger infantry began to fight together.


    Cao Cao''s army in the rear had arrived soon. As soon as Cao Cao''s army arrived, there was a roaring sound of horse''s hooves on Zhang Xiu''s right flank, and a new cavalry force came to attack Cao Cao''s left flank.


    It''s Zhao Yun.


    His army is a white horse.


    White horses roared and turned into a flash of lightning, and soon they were involved in the battlefield.


    Zhao Yun roared: "Baima Yicong, revenge today! Kill me, boys


    "Kill


    Three thousand white horses started a sprint.


    In the past, in the first battle of Nanyang County, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yi was almost lost. After that day, Zhao Yun has been recovering from the white horse. Today, baimayi has regained its fighting capacity again.


    For the whole white horse, now is the war of revenge.


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    Along with the cry of revenge, white horses, one by one, rode into the Cao army.

 Chapter 935

    The three thousand white horses are mighty and powerful, and their momentum is like a sharp blade, which can be stopped by a sharp step. After three thousand white horses got involved in the battlefield, one by one, white horses rushed to kill Cao''s soldiers.


    Despite the large number of Cao''s troops, with the confluence of liehu army, Langya camp and Baima Yicong, the two sides were almost the same in strength.


    In the rear of Cao''s army, Cao Cao was sitting on the hillside.


    A big flag stood up beside him, representing that Cao Cao was still commanding in the rear.


    Cao Cao looked at the fighting on the battlefield with solemn eyes.


    This war is related to the success or failure of the state of Wei.


    Cao Cao said: "fengxiao, you say Zhang Xiu has now let Baima Yicong and langyaying fight, but there are still other backers?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Guo Jia shook his head and said: "even if Zhang Xiu has a back hand, there can be no more troops. Humble position is inclined to think that Zhang Xiu has done her best. After all, Zhang Xiu''s main battlefield is in Yingchuan County, not in Dongjun county. "


    "I hope so," said Cao Cao


    Today, Cao Cao has sent all his troops, including tiger and leopard cavalry, infantry and cavalry.


    There is no way out in this war.


    Zhang Xiu led Gan Ning, Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and others to fight. Wang Yue and Deng Zhan also went with them to cover up. When Zhang Xiu rushes to kill, her eyes are not far away from Lv Bu, who leads the soldiers to kill him.


    Lu Bu is a tiger general.


    The killing power of tiger and leopard riding with Lv Bu is totally different.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu patted the horse''s back, the wind in her crotch was like a lightning stroke, so she rushed forward quickly and went straight to Lv Bu''s direction. With Zhang Xiu''s sprint, Wang Yue and Deng Zhan went with him to kill the soldiers around him. Even Zhang Xiu''s own strength was spread among Cao''s army. When they saw that Zhang Xiu was driving his horse to kill him, they kept avoiding him and did not dare to fight with him.


    They are all scared by Zhang Xiu.


    Lu Bu is leading the tiger and leopard to the battle. When he sees that Zhang Xiu is coming, he is furious.


    Boundless anger rose.


    As the saying goes, the enemy is very jealous when they meet. Once Lu Bu was defeated by Zhang Xiu, he was ashamed. The last time Lv Bu fought with Zhang Xiu, he failed, not because of his lack of strength, but because he was agitated by Zhang Xiu, so that he lost his organization in a rage, and was taken advantage of by Zhang Xiu.


    "Zhang Xiu, take your life!"


    Lu Bu drinks low, Fang Tian draws halberd to swing, in the air directly sprinkles down. The momentum of this fall is like the pouring of the Tianhe River, and it is like the mountain of Tai pressing down the top, which can not be resisted.


    "Hoo!"


    Fang Tian painted halberd with a whistling sound. In a twinkling of an eye, he was in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu in the hand overlord gun, rises to resist.


    "Dang!"


    The impact of two weapons is fierce.


    However, neither Zhang Xiu nor Lv Bu stepped back. They waved their weapons and attacked each other quickly.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of crashing is heard all the time.


    The two weapons constantly collide, Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu constantly fight.


    No matter Zhang Xiu or Lv Bu, they are all top experts in the world. Even for Lv Bu and Zhang Xiu, both of them have their own pride. They are unwilling to admit defeat and can not give in.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the two fought more than 30 moves.


    Although Lv Bu still has a long breath and is not affected by anything, in fact, when he meets Zhang Xiu, his strength is still slightly weakened.


    In the fight, Lv Bu was shocked to find that Zhang Xiu''s strength did not decrease at all, and she was still fierce. Not only that, Zhang Xiu moves hard and soft, or hard without casting, or soft and tricky, that treacherous overlord gun, even make him have a sense of defenseless.


    Zhang Xiu is stronger.


    Lu Bu''s heart gave birth to such a feeling.


    Compared with the time when she once fought with him, Zhang Xiu''s strength at this time was stronger than before. The explosive force, as well as the means of attack, is extremely sharp and irresistible.


    Lu Bu is not willing to admit defeat, and Fang Tian paints halberd in his hand.


    The offensive became more and more fierce.


    Rao is so, Lu Bu still failed to gain the upper hand, and even gradually in the lower hand, as if by Zhang Xiu suppression.


    "No, I''ll never give up."


    Lu Bu''s heart, a loud roar. His martial arts is the foundation of his foothold, which is his pride. No matter who it is, Lu Bu is not afraid, even if the person in front of him is Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    Lu Bu looks like a madman.


    Fang Tianhua''s Halberd attack speed is faster and faster.


    Zhang Xiu calmly face, all of a sudden, Zhang Xiu see Lu Bu Fang Tian painting halberd cut down, move with the old, he originally tricky gun tip, in the air, hand strength burst out, big gun sweeping, strength has become just fierce hegemony.


    Lu Bu''s painting halberd immediately took back the block."Dang!"


    Two weapons collided with each other, and even sparks splashed out at the impact site.


    Lu Bu holds the palm of Fang Tian''s painting halberd, with a faint sense of numbness. Even tiger mouth, there is a trace of pain. But this kind of pain, Lu Bu immediately suppressed, once again swung Fang Tian painting halberd down.


    Zhang Xiu raises a gun to fight. Seeing that Lv Bu is so tough, she still doesn''t retreat, but she doesn''t have the heart to fight with Lv Bu. Zhang Xiu can be sure that his strength has now surpassed Lv Bu. As long as he is given some more time, he can easily defeat Lv Bu.


    But this time may be a quarter of an hour, or two quarters of an hour, or even longer, but Zhang Xiu can''t wait so long.


    It''s a waste of time.


    This is a battlefield, not a challenge arena.


    If it is on the challenge arena, Zhang Xiu can fight with Lv Bu slowly and easily. But on the battlefield, what we should pay attention to is the fastest speed, which is the most unparalleled offensive. Thunder defeated the other side and won the first World War.


    So when Zhang Xiu saw that although Lv Bu fell below, she didn''t show any fatigue. She said in a loud voice, "Lv Bu, you were defeated in the last fight. Now, you''re going to lose. "


    "You also know that Liu Bei has been defeated. My army will kill Yingchuan county and defeat Cao Ren sooner or later. Maybe Cao Ren has lost. But when you went out with Cao Cao, did you arrange someone to send your Diao cicada away in advance? "


    "If you don''t send Diao Chan away, my army will go to Xu county, and Diao Chan will not be your man."


    Diao Chan is the inverse scale of Lu Bu.


    On hearing Diao Chan''s story, Lu Bu became angry and flustered.


    What if they all fall?


    What to do?


    As a general, it''s a taboo to consider these things when fighting. However, Lv Bu knows clearly, but he is still a little flustered and worried about Diao Chan and his wife and daughter.


    This is Lu Bu''s mind.


    He can''t be calm against the enemy.


    Lv Bu''s mind was in a mess, and he immediately appeared a flaw in response to Zhang Xiu''s attack. The fight between the masters is a matter of lightning and flint. As soon as Lv Bu appears, he is dull. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is like a poisonous snake spitting out a message. With a sharp stab, it comes to Lv Bu''s body. With a Ding, it pierces Lv Bu''s armor on his right shoulder and penetrates into his body.


    Puchi!


    The tip of the gun penetrates into the skin, and the next moment the overlord''s gun is drawn out, and a shed of blood splashes out.


    Lu Bu''s face was full of ferocity and horror, and his face was full of pain. But he is biting teeth, in the hand Fang Tian painting halberd swung, again ruthlessly cut down, want to kill Zhang Xiu in front of him.


    Kill Zhang Xiu, Diao Chan will be safe.

 Chapter 936

    Lu Bu''s fast attack, Fang Tianhua halberd constantly waving, constantly attacking, its offensive like the surging river, continuous. But even though Lu Bu''s attack was quick, Lu Bu''s blood overflowed after his right shoulder was injured, which affected his Qi and blood.


    More because of the pull of the wound, it is difficult for him to play the strongest combat effectiveness.


    This is Lu Bu''s helplessness,


    after all, he was injured.


    "Kill


    Lu Bu drinks low, Fang Tian draws halberd to continue to cover Zhang Xiu, the intention takes down Zhang Xiu. However, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun was fiercely attacked. It constantly collided with Fang Tianhua''s halberd. Under the hard impact, the two weapons were all splashed with sparks. There was a smell of scorch coming from the place of impact.


    Under the impact of such forces, Lu Bu''s strength weakened rapidly.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung up and smashed down.


    "Dang!"


    When the weapon hit, Lu Bu snorted. Because of too much force, he pulled the muscle on his right shoulder, which hurt the muscle on his right shoulder and affected his whole transport capacity.


    "Come again!"


    Zhang Xiu drinks low again.


    He was like an indefatigable blacksmith. In front of him, Lv Bu was like a chopping board for striking iron. As the hammer kept hitting the chopping board, his strength was stronger and fiercer.


    In the twinkling of an eye, more than a hundred moves have been made in their fight.


    At this time, there was a trace of blood in the corner of Lu Bu''s mouth. His arms couldn''t take off all his strength. Under the impact of the strength, his internal organs were shaking.


    "General, retreat!"


    At this time, a general rushed over.


    The name of the person who rushed over was Wei Xu, who was once a valiant general under Lv Bu''s command. After Cao Cao recruited Lv Bu, his generals were reorganized and incorporated into the army.


    Seeing that Lv Bu was in trouble, Wei Xu immediately came to help him. Just as Wei Xu was about to get close to him, he saw that the more he killed, the more he sat on his horse. The Epee in his hand swung up and cut off.


    Wei Xu growled: "old man, get out of here!"


    The king of Xia Yue did not fight with Hou Dun once.


    I don''t know about Wang Yue.


    He had a sword in his hand, and he met the blade.


    "Dang!"


    At the moment when the two weapons collided, they seemed to have the power of a tsunami. They poured out from the self weight sword and penetrated into Wei Xu''s sword. Wei Xu snorted. He felt his palm numb and his sword was knocked out.


    The blade of the sword will not move forward.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade was cut off from Wei Xu''s left neck. The next moment, Wei continued the whole half of the body, directly fell on the ground, blood is spilled on the ground.


    A face to face, Wei Xu was killed.


    After Wang Yue killed Wei Xu, he did not look at Wei Xu. He killed Cao Jun soldiers who intended to be close to Zhang Xiu. The scene of Wang Yue''s killing Wei Xu fell into the eyes of Cao''s soldiers.


    The soldiers under Cao Cao''s command were even more frightened.


    The old man is so good!


    He killed Wei Xu in one move, so that in a short time, there were no soldiers who dared to get close to him.


    Lu Bu also saw that Wei Xu was killed. He bit his teeth and looked angry. He wants revenge, but even if he has endless ideas, even if he wants to win, it is difficult to turn the situation around.


    He can''t beat Zhang Xiu.


    Even today''s Lu Bu, increasingly tired, hand strength gradually unable to lift, unable to block Zhang Xiu''s offensive.


    In this case, Lu Bu gave birth to the idea of retreat, and then continue to fight, he must die in the hands of Zhang Xiu. With this idea, Lu Bu''s painting halberd in Fang Tian''s hand attacked fiercely, forcing Zhang Xiu back to defense.


    Then Lubu turned around and retreated.


    "Just waiting for you to retreat!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a fine light. At the moment when Lv Bu just turned around and was ready to pull his horse to retreat, Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung fiercely and swept out.


    This blow, carrying all the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    At the moment when the red rabbit horse just rushed out, the overlord gun slammed on the rear hip bone of the red rabbit horse. Under the impact of fierce force, there was a click sound immediately, and the bone on the horse''s buttock had been broken by this shot. Even under the impact of this turbulent force, the red rabbit horse could not run forward at all and fell to the ground.


    Lubu also fell to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu turned over and got off the horse in an instant. He rushed to Lv Bu with his overlord gun. However, Lu Bu is not a fuel-efficient and so on, quickly a carp straightened up and stood up, intending to retreat.


    But Zhang Xiu catches up like lightning, and the overlord spears straight out.


    Lu Bu couldn''t retreat, so he could only wave Fang Tian''s painting halberd block. When two weapons collided, Zhang Xiu''s strength was steady and dominant. In particular, Lu Bu''s shoulder was injured first, and now his palm was numb. Just now, he fell off the horse and fell into a bad situation. He was not strong enough. It was Zhang Xiu''s shot that made him step backward and unable to stand firm.Zhang Xiu saw Lv Bu retreating and stepping on her feet, so she immediately caught up with her. As soon as he got close to Lv Bu, the overlord''s gun fell down like an iron bar.


    Lu Bu clenched the halberd with both hands and made a move to fight against it.


    "Dang!"


    When the weapon hit, the halberd of the painting was humming and shaking, and even Lu Bu''s hand holding the overlord''s gun was more painful. For a moment, I couldn''t hold it.


    "Kick! Kick off


    Lu Bu retreated again.


    At this moment, Lu Bu was extremely anxious.


    He wanted to retreat, but he couldn''t. He wants to avoid Zhang Xiu, but he can''t. Especially other hands tiger mouth are faint tears, arm ache, plus the injury on the shoulder, for a time can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s continuous attack.


    Zhang Xiu is powerful and unforgiving. This is the best chance to defeat Lv Bu. Once miss now, want to take Lv Bu again, that is more difficult, so Zhang Xiu is determined not to miss the opportunity.


    He strode forward, and when Lu Bu was not stable, he threw the gun down again.


    Under the continuous impact, Lu Bu finally couldn''t hold Fang Tian''s painting halberd. The painting halberd was smashed out, but Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun continued to fall. With a bang, it hit Lu Bu''s shoulder.


    Under the impact of fierce force, Lu Bu fell to the ground with a stagger.


    No more stability!


    Zhang Xiu stepped forward, the overlord gun forward, and stopped three inches in front of Lv Bu''s chest.


    "You are defeated!"


    Zhang Xiu opens her mouth in a deep voice, and his breathing at the moment is also quite rapid. Because this time, if it was not for successive attacks, Lu Bu would not be defeated. It is not easy to defeat Lu Bu.


    Lu Bu fell to the ground with a dispirited look on his face and a sigh in his heart.


    Lost!


    He lost to Zhang Xiu.


    Lu Bu has always regarded himself as the best general in the world, but now in front of Zhang Xiu, he has lost completely, even he has been injured.


    "I''m defeated!"


    Lu Bu sighed and said, "if you want to kill or cut, do as you please."


    "Come on, take it!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, and immediately soldiers came forward.


    The soldiers quickly tied up Lu Bu with backhand or even Lu Bu''s feet. Because Lv Bu is different from other people, ordinary generals only need to be bound and detained, so there is no problem.


    But Lu Bu is the most powerful general in the world. He can''t be underestimated, so he is directly tied up.


    After taking Lv Bu, Zhang Xiu turned over and mounted the horse again. He roared: "Lv Bu was killed, sons, follow me!"


    He deliberately yelled the news that Lu Bu had been killed.


    In Cao Cao''s army, Lu Bu is an invincible existence and a person who can sweep all Cao''s generals. But now even Lu Bu died on the battlefield. The news spread, and in an instant, the morale of many Cao soldiers fell sharply.


    One by one no longer has the previous fighting spirit.


    Precisely, this is the goal Zhang Xiu wants to achieve, and constantly weakens Cao Jun''s morale.

 Chapter 937

    As the news of Lu Bu''s death came out, more and more Qin soldiers cried out, and more and more Cao soldiers were worried. As a result, Cao''s army began to rout in the battle between the two sides, and there was no previous offensive.


    Xu Chuzheng led the troops to kill the enemy. Seeing that the situation was not good, he kept rushing forward to save the situation.


    Chen Dao met Xu Chu.


    Two people fight for a moment, Chen to is falling into the wind.


    Chen Dao''s army is very strict. The soldiers of Langya camp dare to fight and kill. The cavalry of Langya camp can be stopped by sharp steps. However, Chen Dao''s own martial arts skills were not as good as Xu Chu''s, but Chen Dao also firmly resisted Xu Chu''s attack.


    Although he fell behind, in a short time, Xu Chu wanted to defeat him, but it was impossible, and Chen Dao was not a weak man.


    "General Chen, I''ll help you!"


    At this time, there was a loud voice, but it was Zhao Yun who drove his horse to kill him.


    In his hand, Zhao Yun shook his silver gun and stabbed Xu Chu in the ribs. This shot was extremely tricky. Xu Chu couldn''t avoid it, so he could only take the knife to block it. But the knife in his hand just blocked it. The next moment, Chen Dao attacked again.


    In an instant, Xu Chu fell to the disadvantage.


    Facing the cooperation between Chen Dao and Zhao Yun, Xu Chu was in a hurry. He kept waving his sword, intending to kill Chen Dao first, but with the help of Zhao Yun, he couldn''t do it at all.


    In desperation, Xu Chu forced Chen Dao and Zhao Yun to retreat, and the horses were about to withdraw.


    "Where to go!"


    Seeing this, Chen Dao raced to catch up.


    He is not willing to give up opportunities.


    This is an opportunity to win Xu Chu, who is Cao Cao''s confidant and right arm. Winning Xu Chu is a great blow to Cao Cao. Chen Dao catches up with Zhao Yun.


    However, Zhao Yun''s speed was a little slower. He put away his silver gun, took out his bow steadily, bent his bow and set up his arrow, then aimed at Xu Chu who was retreating.


    "Whew!"


    The bowstring vibrates and the bow and arrow come out.


    The sharp bow and arrow turned into a streamer. In an instant, it had already reached the back of Xu Chu.


    "Puchi!"


    The arrow, with its ferocious force, pierced Xu Chu''s horse directly.


    This is Zhao Yun''s means.


    We should get rid of Xu Chu''s horses first.


    With Xu Chu''s strength, even if Zhao Yun shoots Xu Chu with an arrow, he may not succeed. So he found a new way to shoot Xu Chu''s horses directly. With the bow and arrow hit, the horse went crazy, ran forward and hit the tiger and leopard soldiers one after another.


    Chu also fell off his horse.


    Chen to the horse rushed up, the crotch of the horse''s hooves raised, hard step down.


    Once the horseshoe stepped on Xu Chu''s body, it was enough to trample Xu Chu to death. Xu Chu rolled over quickly, then swung his sword. Subconsciously, he wanted to cut off the legs of Chen Dao''s horse, but at the moment when he was ready to put out the sword, Zhao YUNTI killed him with a gun. In a hurry, Xu Chu immediately changed his moves and met him with a long sword.


    "Dang!"


    Xu Chu''s legs were standing on the ground, and his body couldn''t borrow any force. However, Zhao Yun, with the help of the power of the war horse, put out a gun and made Xu Chu step back.


    Whoo!


    Just at this time, Chen to a gun sweep.


    "Pa!"


    The big gun hit Xu Chu on the back. Xu Chu staggered and fell to the ground.


    After Xu Chu fell to the ground, he was an experienced veteran and immediately got ready to get up. But the next moment, Zhao Yun''s Longdan silver gun, has stopped in front of him.


    In addition, Chen Dao''s long gun also stopped on Xu Chu''s chest.


    As long as Xu Chu has any change, he will be killed immediately. But Xu Chu was unwilling to surrender. He gritted his teeth and reached out to Chen Dao''s gun. He grabbed the barrel of the gun like lightning and tried to pull Chen Dao down.


    With Xu Chu''s action, Zhao Yun no longer keeps his hand, and the Dragon Dan''s silver spear stabs hard.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrated into Xu Chu''s chest.


    One shot through the heart.


    Poof!


    Xu Chu vomited blood in his mouth, but he didn''t want to let go of the gun. He tried to pull Chen Dao off the horse, but after all, his heart was pierced. He coughed twice in his mouth and lost his strength. He couldn''t do it any more.


    As soon as I let go of my hand, I fell to the ground.


    In a pair of eyes, the expression is gradually dim down.


    There was still blood in his mouth,


    but Xu Chu didn''t want to surrender. He died on purpose. If he is willing to surrender, as long as he does not act, he will not be killed. But Xu Chu was so determined to die that he was stabbed to death by Zhao Yun.


    Zhao Yun sighed in his heart, but didn''t delay his time. He roared: "Xu Chu was killed, sons, kill!"


    "Xu Chu was killed!"


    White horse righteousness from, start to shout.


    "Xu Chu was killed.""Xu Chu was killed!"


    ¡­¡­


    Baima Yicong kept shouting. As Lu Bu and Xu Chu were killed one after another, many Cao soldiers were frightened and began to rout.


    The news spread to the distant place where Cao Cao was sitting.


    Cao Cao also heard the news.


    He immediately clenched his fist, and his face showed an expression of reluctance.


    Xu Chu is his confidant.


    Lu Bu is his general.


    They were all killed.


    Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Guo Jia saw the constant defeat of Cao Jun, sighed in his heart and said, "Your Highness, we have been defeated in this battle. Zhang Xiu killed Lv Bu first and then Xu Chu. We lost two generals in succession. It is difficult for us to win this war because of the unstable morale of the army. "


    Xun you also said: "Your Highness, the situation is out of control. Withdraw. Now, we can only retreat quickly. "


    Cao Cao''s face was black and his heart was extremely reluctant.


    To let him retreat now would be a complete failure of his plan in East County. Especially after the defeat of Dongjun''s plan, the war in Yingchuan must be involved. This is a series of reactions.


    Cao Cao did not respond and ordered his troops to attack again. Unfortunately, the news of Xu Chu and Lu Bu''s killing spread all over the world, and Cao''s army could not keep it.


    For a while, they kept retreating.


    But in a quarter of an hour, Cao''s army had been defeated like a mountain.


    Cao Cao could not sit still and ordered: "withdraw!"


    With the command of Cao Cao, the gongs rang on the battlefield. Cao Cao, with Xun you, Guo Jia and others, retreated quickly and did not dare to stay.


    The retreat of Cao''s army contributed to the offensive of Qin''s army. Baima Yicong and the cavalry of the fierce tiger army joined hands to hide and kill. Under the constant attack of the cavalry, Cao''s army lost more.


    Zhang Xiu saw the retreating Cao army. At this time, Cao army turned around and withdrew, intending to retreat in the direction of Puyang County. As long as it is returned to Puyang County, Cao Cao can still guard it.


    Zhang Xiu knew Cao Cao''s intention, but he sneered in his heart. At this point, it is impossible for Cao Cao to retreat, because he has already arranged an ambush.


    All the way south, Cao Cao retreated for less than two quarters of an hour. When he was retreating quickly, he saw the official road in front of him. All of a sudden, there was a cry to kill.


    A Qin army appeared on the official road.


    "Kill


    The cry of killing started, and countless soldiers charged.


    Zhang Yan, the chief General of the Montenegrin army, constantly ordered the soldiers to attack. The soldiers of the black mountain army under his command originally ambushed near the place where Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao used to live. But when the two sides fought, Zhang Yan led the black mountain army to make a detour quietly and came to the back of Cao Cao, cutting off Cao Cao''s retreat.


    In this way, Cao Cao''s retreat was blocked.


    Cao Cao''s heart sank when he saw the black mountain army in front of him.


    It''s a trick!


    Not only that, he was deeply calculated. From the beginning of Zhang Xiu''s evacuation from Puyang County, it has been the beginning of the plan, to the previous fighting place, and now, it is the formation of a series of plans.


    Cao Cao''s heart sank.


    It''s dangerous.

 Chapter 938

    Cao Cao''s army was rapidly retreating. Now it suddenly met with an army that was blocked. All of a sudden, all the fleeing soldiers panicked and began to break through in all directions.


    Everyone knows that once they are stopped, the pursuers in the rear will be slaughtered, so they immediately start running around and running around.


    This scene fell in the eyes of Cao Cao, who was even more eager.


    It''s not good.


    Cao Cao immediately ordered the whole army to break through the encirclement, but also made Xia Houyuan and Dian Wei lead the way together. Xia Houyuan and Dian Wei rushed forward together, but the front soldiers also broke through the defense line of the black mountain army and began to retreat quickly.


    But the Cao soldiers who really broke through the encirclement and left, after all, were a few.


    Most people, they''re blocked.


    Although Zhang Yan was the leader of the Montenegrin army, the Montenegrin army was not weak. In particular, Cao''s way was blocked by the black mountain army. In the formation, there were long spears in twos and threes everywhere. Each soldier held a long spear and kept on fighting.


    As far as the Heishan army is concerned, as long as the retreat speed of Cao''s soldiers is delayed, the fierce tiger army and Baima Yicong will be able to catch up and kill countless Cao''s soldiers.


    This is Zhang Yan''s plan.


    Fighting on the battlefield, fighting as a regiment.


    More and more Cao''s troops were killed. After all, more and more Cao''s troops were blocked, attacked and killed.


    "I surrender!"


    In the crowd, suddenly there were Cao soldiers who surrendered. As soon as the surrendering soldiers appeared, the situation on the whole battlefield immediately changed. More and more soldiers surrendered and no longer resisted.


    Cao''s fleeing army was defeated like a mountain, and the whole army was defeated.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Cao Cao, who has broken through the encirclement in front of us, gives a loud order. Although he had escaped, Cao Cao was not satisfied with it. If only he escaped and all his soldiers were taken down, he would be a lonely man, and the soldiers would have to break through and retreat together.


    Unfortunately, a large number of Cao''s soldiers were blocked, and only a few of them were able to retreat.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu''s military strength was no less than Cao Cao''s. There are more than 50000 people in the two armies of Langya camp and liehu army. Taking into account the battle of Heishan army, Baima Yicong, Zhang Xiu and Cao Cao, more than 80000 elite soldiers were invested.


    On the other hand, from the beginning, Cao Cao had 80000 people. When he finally left Puyang County to cover up, Cao Cao''s troops lost more than 10000 people, which was actually weaker than Zhang Xiu''s in the total number of troops.


    What''s more, it is now in a rout.


    Cao Cao''s rapid retreat, even worried about the situation in the rear, but also helpless. Because in the current situation, he has been unable to control the situation, can only continue to retreat, get rid of the pursuit of the rear.


    Cao Cao quickly retreated for more than half an hour, even far away from Puyang County. At this time, he stopped to rest. Cao Cao did not dare to go back to Puyang County.


    Because he can''t keep it.


    The look on Cao Cao''s face was gloomy. Because of this war, he damaged Lv Bu and Xu Chu, two generals. For Cao Cao, the loss was no less than 30000 or 50000 people.


    Xia Houyuan counted the losses and soon came to Cao Cao''s side. He looked embarrassed and sighed: "Your Highness, the losses in this war have been counted."


    Cao Cao said, "say it!"


    Xia Houyuan replied, "the army that escaped with us is less than 6000. The rest of the army was occupied. Even in the future, some soldiers will come back to join us, but in this war, we will bring 80000 people, at most 10000 people. "


    Gudong!


    Cao Cao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked miserable.


    Bleak!


    There are less than 60000 people in the 80000 army, which is a great loss. Even though Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu fought each other many times and lost to Zhang Xiu several times, he never had such a big defeat.


    It''s a huge loss.


    Cao Cao took a deep breath and asked, "are there many wounded people in the army today?"


    "Not much!"


    Xia Houyuan replied: "the soldiers who escaped are in good health. But the morale of the army is very low. We have lost too many soldiers in this war. "


    Guo Jia answered and said, "Your Highness, I''m afraid Cao Ren can''t keep the news of Dongjun when it comes to Yingchuan. Today, Zhang Xiu''s troops are no less than 70000 in Dongjun alone, and there are still 70000 in Yingchuan. "


    "All in all, Zhang Xiu''s attack on the state of Wei is no less than the army of 156000."


    "On the other hand, we have less than 40000 troops today."


    Guo Jia said: "even if we can barely mobilize the troops from all over the country, and then gather another 30000 or 40000 troops, we can''t stop Zhang Xiu."


    Cao Cao said, "how do you think about fengxiao?"


    Guo Jia said: "at this point, it''s no longer cost-effective to meet Zhang Xiu. He suggested that he abandon Dongjun, Yingchuan, Chenliu and other places immediately, and then give up Yuzhou and Yanzhou, and quickly withdraw to Taishan county. We retreated to Taishan County, to Qingzhou and Xuzhou, to avoid the edge of Zhang Xiu. "Cao Cao zhengse way: "if Zhang Xiu fast attack, catch up with us?"


    Guo Jia said: "even if Zhang Xiu is in pursuit, Yanzhou and Yuzhou are not stable. He can''t go all out to pursue them. Moreover, when we retreated, regardless of Liu Xie, we left the emperor for Zhang Xiu to deal with. At least, use the emperor to restrain Zhang Xiu and avoid her pursuit. "


    Xun you sighed: "the meaning of filial piety is to dress lightly and go back to Taishan county. Although the emperor is a puppet, some ministers will be attached to his highness when the emperor is here. If the emperor is not here, I''m afraid some ministers will leave. "


    Guo Jia said: "there is no way to take the lesser of the two evils. Leaving the son of heaven is tantamount to giving us an unstable factor. The emperor to Zhang Xiu, at least can delay the speed of Zhang Xiu''s attack. Moreover, we have all lost most of our territory. Even if Yuan Xi is arrested, Yuan Shao is expected to make a decision. "


    Xun you nodded and said no more.


    He agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis.


    The choice must be made in the current situation. If you want to stick to Xudu, you may be annihilated in Xudu in the end, but you can withdraw from Xudu, at least there is a chance of life.


    Cao Cao listened to Xun you''s and Guo Jia''s suggestions, thought about them for a while, and then said, "in today''s situation, we really need to retreat. We can''t meet Zhang Xiu any more. If we want to retreat, we must leave some fresh troops behind. If the retreat of the gray, the hands of no troops, I''m afraid even if retreat to Xuzhou, will also be taken to Zhang Xiu. I agree with the proposal of filial piety. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Guo Jia nodded solemnly.


    Cao Cao sighed: "it''s a pity that Xu Chu has been loyal to our king for many years, but now he died in the battle, and even his body can''t be found. We are ashamed of Xu Chu."


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, it''s very normal for a warrior to die in battle. It is expected that if General Xu, he could surrender. He must have been loyal to his highness and unwilling to submit to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    Cao Cao sighed, endless sorrow.


    Up to now, Cao Hong was killed first, then Xia Houdun was killed, and now Xu Chu and Lu Bu are killed. Therefore, Cao Cao is inevitably sad.


    Cao Cao let his soldiers rest, and rest for another two quarters of an hour, then quickly withdrew.


    This time Cao Cao retreated to Taishan county. At the same time, Cao Cao sent people to send letters to Cao ang, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu in Xudu, and then to Cao Ren stationed in Xiangcheng County, asking everyone to retreat and go to Taishan county to meet.


    The news spread quickly.


    When the news reached Xudu, Cao ang immediately arranged for people to call Cheng Yu and Xun Yu, took out Cao Cao''s letter, let Cheng Yu and Xun Yu check it, and finally said: "Duke Zhong, father, let''s retreat. Not only that, but it also makes us give up the emperor. It''s urgent. What do you think we should do? "

 Chapter 939

    Both Cheng Yu and Xun Yu had a solemn look on their faces.


    Lost!


    Cao Cao''s army was defeated.


    There is no one out of ten in the 80000 troops, which can be described as a total defeat. This kind of loss is almost unbearable, and even the whole state of Wei will be turbulent because of this incident.


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard and said, "since your Highness has ordered you to go back to Taishan County, and even your Highness has already gone to Taishan County, we can''t stay any longer now. We can only retreat to Taishan County as fast as we can. "


    To Cao Cao''s order, Cheng Yu is two words -- obey!


    What''s more, now we have to retreat.


    Xun Yu did not speak.


    He was sitting with his hands on his knees, looking solemn and thoughtful.


    Cheng Yu continued: "since we want to retreat, we must arrange it as soon as possible. Because in the East County, it won''t last long. The most important thing is that if we want to retreat, it will not be a two person retreat. There will be countless families to retreat together, and there will be countless food and money to retreat. This is the most time-consuming and spiritual thing. "


    After a pause, Cheng Yu continued: "today, arrange everything. Tomorrow afternoon, after lunch, we will withdraw immediately. In this way, it will not be affected. Otherwise, when Zhang Xiu''s army arrives, we''ll retreat. That''s a flurry of fleeing. We can''t take anything away. "


    Xun Yu said, "don''t you care about the emperor?"


    Cheng Yu said in a deep voice: "Wen Ruo, now your highness is defeated. The situation is unfavorable. Can you still control the emperor? In other words, in today''s situation, we still need to take the emperor with us. Do we want to add obstacles to ourselves? "


    "Alas..."


    Xun Yu sighed in his heart.


    Cao ang said: "Mr. Zhong De Gong, Mr. Xun intends to take the emperor with him, so follow Mr. Xun''s advice. I expect that my father will follow Mr. Xun''s advice when he comes to deal with it. "


    "Because Mr. Xun is the most trusted confidant of his father."


    "My father once said that he fought in the West and in the East, and he never worried about the rear. This is the credit of Mr. Xun. To his father, Mr. Xun is a man like Xiao He. "


    Cao ang had deep eyes and said, "so I''d rather take Liu Xie with me than embarrass Mr. Xun."


    Cheng Yu said: "Shizi, you can''t!"


    For Cao Ang''s decision, Cheng Yu directly retorts.


    Xun Yu sighed in his heart and said, "I don''t need to disobey your Highness''s orders because of me. Xunzi''s kindness is the result of his heart. However, as Mr. Zhong De said, it is most appropriate not to take the emperor with him. Leave the emperor, the emperor to Zhang Xiu, at least Zhang Xiu will spend some thought. What''s more, it''s inconvenient to take the emperor with you to evacuate now. "


    Cao ang said, "Mr. Xun, you can think about it."


    Xun Yu said, "I''ve thought about it."


    Cao ang said: "in that case, I would like to invite Mr. Zhong De and Mr. Xun to preside over the evacuation. One day, we have to make all the arrangements. "


    "Here it is


    When Cheng Yu and Xun Yu heard the speech, they should go down together and arrange it in a hurry. In just one hour, the news of the impending evacuation has spread throughout Xu.


    Countless people know the news of the defeat in the front line. When Dong Cheng knew the news, he went straight to the palace. After seeing Liu Xie, he quickly reported the situation and said, "Your Majesty, Cao Cao is leaving Xudu for Taishan county. Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others have already begun to order that they mobilize food, grass, money, etc. to leave Xudu tomorrow. "


    Liu Xie said, "do Cao Cao have any plans for us?"


    "No!"


    Dong Cheng shook his head and answered.


    Liu Xie said, "is it because Cao Cao is going to leave alone this time, regardless of us?"


    "It should be!"


    Dong Cheng nodded and said: "after all, there is no news coming. It is very likely that Cao Cao will not care about us this time, but all the people who belong to his majesty will not leave."


    Liu Xie''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "Dong Cheng, you said Cao Cao would take people to retreat. Now, what should we do? Whether we will take action to prevent Cao Cao from withdrawing. "


    "No!"


    Dong Cheng shook his head and said, "if we stop Cao Cao''s army at this time, I''m afraid it will cause unnecessary conflicts."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Fu Wan, Fu De and others are asking to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Liu asked.


    As the Chamberlain went to order, soon, Fuwan, Fude, and some other courtiers entered. Before that, Cao Cao slaughtered several officials loyal to Liu Xie. Although he slaughtered batch after batch, Fu De was hidden behind the scenes from the beginning to the end.


    That''s why he can ensure his own safety and avoid being in danger.


    After a crowd saluted, Fu De took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, Cao Cao''s people are packing up money and food quickly. It was obvious that Cao Cao was defeated and wanted to take away all the food and money. I firmly believe that they should not be allowed to do it. "Liu Xie said, "what is Fu Qing going to do?"


    "It''s very difficult to fight head-on," he said. But they are going to retreat tomorrow, so we can arrange for people to stop them, create trouble and delay when they withdraw tomorrow. "


    After a pause, Ford continued: "for us, if we delay Cao Cao''s retreat, Cao Cao will be more dangerous, even fatal. So I suggest that we plan in secret and arrange people to create chaos tomorrow. "


    "No, your majesty!"


    Fu Wan glared at Fu De and said: "Your Majesty, the situation is very delicate. Taking action at this time is tantamount to hitting the muzzle of a gun. Once you annoy the Cao family, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Fu Wan did not agree with his son''s suggestion.


    Dong Cheng also said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Fu Guozhang''s suggestion and can''t act rashly. Acting without authorization, once he bumps into Cao Ang''s hands, he is sending himself to the door to seek death. Please think twice, your majesty


    Liu Xie thought in his heart.


    From the bottom of his heart, he wanted to take action. If Cao ang and Cheng Yu were allowed to retreat, he would not be reconciled.


    Liu Xie still thinks that this world is his.


    This is the Han family.


    Liu Xie took a deep breath and looked at Fu De again. However, he saw Fu De stand up again with a solemn look on his face and solemnly said: "father, general Dong, from the beginning, you two have always insisted on self-protection. I didn''t say anything."


    "In fact, the original general Dong was also bloody."


    "But later, after seeing Cao Cao''s butcher''s knife, general Dong was scared. Up to now, like my father, you are afraid of this and that. If this is always the case, can your majesty claim power? "


    "Impossible!"


    "If your majesty wants to be in power, there will be no pie in the world. At this time, if you don''t grab some food or money, your Majesty''s side is still powerless and unarmed. "


    Fu De''s sharp words, said: "so I think, to get something, you have to pay, you have to take risks. If you don''t take action, you''re sitting there waiting to die. "


    "Evil


    When I heard it, I yelled.


    At this time, he thought that it was extremely dangerous with the character of Fu Wan. At this time, it is tantamount to death. Therefore, Fu Wan resolutely does not agree to take action.


    Dong Cheng said: "Fude, I know your heart of serving the country. But if you want to serve your country, the first prerequisite is to survive. If you can''t survive, you''re looking for death. "


    Fu De brushed his sleeves and said: "Your Majesty, gentlemen, if you want to reverse the decadent trend, nothing can be done if you are so timid. Your majesty, please think twice. "


    "Your Majesty, please think twice!"


    In the crowd, officials spoke again.


    This is on vold''s side. It''s for action.

 Chapter 940

    When all the people argued, they didn''t notice that a servant left quietly at the gate of the main hall. After Fu De''s words, Liu Xie still didn''t make up his mind and didn''t know what to do.


    The current situation is extremely dangerous.


    No one knows what will happen in the end.


    Especially when the two sides quarrel endlessly, the best result is that Liu Xie will coordinate and make a decision. However, Liu Xie has never made a decision. From morning to noon, Fu De, Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and others are still arguing and arguing.


    He looked at Liu Xie and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, what are you hesitating about. We should be constantly determined, but we should be disturbed. If you don''t make a choice at this time, you will miss the opportunity. "


    There was something in his heart that he hated iron for not making steel.


    Liu Xie is the son of heaven.


    There is nothing daunting about doing things, not a bit of the emperor''s courage and domineering spirit.


    It''s really disappointing.


    Fu De doesn''t like Liu Xie. If it wasn''t for his sister Fu Shou, who was the queen, he would never have assisted Liu Xie. He could not have supported Liu Xie on the wall with rotten mud.


    Dong Cheng was also tired and said, "Your Majesty, please judge."


    "Your Majesty can''t judge. I''ll judge."


    Suddenly, a thick voice came from outside the hall, but Cheng Yu strode in at the door of the hall. Although Cheng Yu is old, he is healthy and can''t see any sign of old age.


    This is Cheng Yu.


    When Liu Xie saw Cheng Yu, his face was cold and he said in a deep voice, "Cheng Yu, I didn''t announce you to enter the palace. What do you want to do


    Cheng Yu''s eyes were sharp and said, "I''ve come to help your majesty make a choice. Now you''re all ready to deal with the ministers of the state of Wei who left. How can I sit back and ignore them?"


    Liu Xie scolded: "back down!"


    But Cheng Yu went straight in and stared at Liu Xie with bright eyes, saying: "Liu Xie, you are such a child. Don''t brag in front of me. I''ll let someone kill you. I think you are the right one and the emperor of the Han Dynasty. No one dares to do anything to you. "


    The cold and fierce intention of killing spreads from Cheng Yu.


    Liu Xie could not help shivering. When he got to his mouth, he immediately swallowed it and did not dare to speak any more.


    He was frightened by Cheng Yu.


    In particular, Liu Xie knows that Cheng Yu has always been ruthless. He is not a simple person who can do it.


    Such people can''t be provoked.


    Cheng Yu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "the reason why the Great Han Dynasty exists is that the king of Wei worked hard to maintain the situation. Otherwise, the Great Han would have died years ago. A group of people, who don''t know how to be grateful, are planning to deal with the king of Wei. It''s really punishable. "


    Fu Wan explained, "Mr. Cheng, I don''t have one."


    Dong Cheng also said: "Mr. Cheng, the final general has no conspiracy. On the contrary, the final general is still maintaining the situation."


    With a big wave of his hand, Cheng Yu ordered: "come and kill Fu Wan and Fu De."


    With an order, some soldiers came forward and killed quickly. It was just a moment. Fu Wan, Fu De and all the people who followed Fu De were killed, and none of them remained.


    Instead, Dong Cheng survived without being killed.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Dong Cheng breathed heavily, with a look of horror on his face.


    He gulped down saliva in his throat. He was scared. Unexpectedly, at this time, Cheng Yu was so fierce that he slaughtered the Fu family.


    Cheng Yu stares at Liu Xie and says, "you''d better be honest, or I''ll kill you. Even if I leave Xudu, it''s easy to kill you. As for Dong Cheng, you have to keep an eye on the little emperor, or he won''t survive. "


    After that, Cheng Yu left with a big sleeve.


    At this moment, the expression on Liu Xie''s face changed again and again, and even there was reluctance and anger in his heart, and he finally swallowed it. Because he knew Cheng Yu''s words clearly, he had Cao Cao''s row of eyeliners around him.


    That''s how the news gets out.


    Cheng Yu will come to kill.


    After Cheng Yu left, Liu Xie sat down, waved his hand and said, "general Dong, please step back."


    "Here it is


    Dong Cheng''s legs were a little weak and he staggered out of the hall.


    With the news that Fu Wan, Fu De and others were killed, all the officials in Xudu were cautious. As for the officials of the state of Wei, they packed their bags quickly and prepared to leave.


    When Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others were busy leaving, the news also spread to Xiangcheng County. Cao Ren frowned at the news that Cao Cao was defeated and ordered to retreat.


    The situation is terrible.


    In the end, less than 10000 people were left in the 80000 army.


    It''s a huge loss.


    Cao Ren immediately called Le Jin, Yu Jin and Zhang Liao, talked about the war in Dongjun county and Cao Cao''s arrangement, and finally said: "Your Highness will retreat to Taishan county. Besides, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others are about to withdraw. It is meaningless for us to stay in Xiangcheng County."Zhang Liao said: "the state is hard!"


    Cao Ren nodded and continued: "what I''m thinking about is whether Zhang Yan has the same news now that we''ve got the news. He has laid an ambush on the way to our retreat so as to ambush our retreating army."


    "It''s quite possible."


    Zhang Liao looked solemn and said: "Zhang Xiu has always been good at intelligence. Once Zhang Yan is the first to get the news of his Highness''s withdrawal, he can certainly expect it. Then we can''t retreat as usual. "


    Cao Ren said, "how can we retreat?"


    Yu Jin replied: "in my opinion, we will not retreat to Xudu or Taishan county. Because this route is easy to find. I suggest that we retreat in the direction of peiguo, then pass through Qingzhou, and then turn to Taishan county. Although it''s a circle, it''s the safest for us. "


    Cao Ren looked at lejin and zhangliao and asked, "what do you think?"


    "I agree," said lejin


    Zhang Liao said solemnly, "I don''t think it''s safe to withdraw directly to peiguo. My suggestion is to divide the army into two groups. The first group is bluffing and retreating in the direction of Xudu to attract Zhang''s attention. The other way is to retreat. Only in this way can we ensure our safe evacuation. "


    Cao Ren said, "what Wen Yuan said is true."


    Cao Ren agreed with Zhang Liao''s suggestion, and Yu Jin and lejin nodded in agreement after hearing it.


    Cao Ren said, "will Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang be informed of this news? At least now, Liu Bei still has thousands of elite in Xiangcheng County. Shall we take them with us to retreat? "


    Zhang Liao said: "I have to take it. The reason is very simple. Now there is no conflict between your highness and Liu Bei. Even his highness needs the strength of Liu Bei to resist Zhang Xiu. So we have to take them with us to retreat. "


    Cao Ren nodded and immediately sent for Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.


    When Cao Ren said the news of Cao Cao''s defeat and had planned to withdraw, Liu Bei''s face changed again and again. During this period of time, Liu Bei''s heart was filled with endless regret that he came to help Cao Cao. If you don''t come to help Cao Cao, you won''t lose Runan, and you won''t let Guan Yu be killed.


    Now, Cao Cao is defeated again.


    Liu Bei didn''t get anything, and finally he lost himself.


    It''s a huge loss.


    In Liu Bei''s heart, he cried sadly, but he could not help saying, "just retreat. Now, it can only be a retreat. "


    He is now a lost dog and can only depend on Cao Cao.

 Chapter 941

    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, outside Xiangcheng County, there was a rush of war drums.


    The drums are very fast.


    After hearing this, Cao Ren, Le Jin and others in the room all changed greatly. Because in the current situation, Zhang jaw leads the soldiers to kill, which means that Zhang jaw must get the news.


    Otherwise, Zhang will not attack again.


    Cao renceng stood up and said, "let''s go and have a look."


    Liu Bei, Le Jin, Zhang Liao and others, Qi Shushu walked out of the room and came to the gate of the city. When they looked out of the city, they saw a large army of black soldiers lined up outside.


    Zhang Ya, Huang Zhong, and a Guli''s army all gathered and were assassinated.


    Now, Huang Zhong is in Xiangcheng County.


    Before that, Huang Zhong was in Runan County, mopping up all the places, but Huang Zhong didn''t delay his time. After mopping up all the places, he had already led his troops northward to meet Zhang Ya outside Xiangcheng County.


    Huang Zhong threatened Liu Bei''s family members and ordered Liu Bei to surrender. However, Liu Bei was as determined as a stone and was not threatened. Even if Huang Zhong had Liu Bei''s family members and subordinates, it would not help.


    During this period of time, Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong also joined hands to attack Xiangcheng County, but Cao Ren kept every drop of water, so even Zhang Yan''s fierce attack was useless.


    Almost when Cao Ren got the news, Zhang Yan got the news from the royal guards.


    Cao Cao''s 80000 troops suffered heavy losses, and all the remaining troops retreated.


    When Zhang jaw got the news, he and Huang Zhong rushed to kill each other and lined up outside the city again.


    This time, Zhang wants to break Xiangcheng County.


    Looking up at the tower, he immediately said: "Cao Ren, Cao Cao was defeated in the East County. He lost his army at the expense of his troops. Less than 10000 people left in the 80000 army fled to Taishan county. You are now stationed in Xiangcheng County, which is a stubborn resistance. If you surrender now, you will not die. "


    WOW!!


    The soldiers on the tower were in an uproar when they heard it.


    Cao''s soldiers, even those under Liu Bei''s command, were all flustered.


    Liu Bei''s soldiers were most frightened.


    Originally, Liu Bei''s soldiers had already lost Runan County, and their old nest was lost. They could only be attached to Cao Cao. But now even Cao Cao is defeated in Dongjun. Who else can they depend on?


    The whole defense of Xiangcheng County was completely flustered.


    Everyone was worried.


    When Cao Ren knew that Zhang Yan was coming, there would be such a scene. Because the news can''t hold down at all. After all, he will have to retreat next. However, Cao Renming knew that the situation was unfavourable, but Cao Ren said in a deep voice: "Zhang Yan, you just want to conquer Xiangcheng County. As long as Ben will be there, that''s impossible. "


    "No way!"


    Cao Ren''s reply was resounding.


    But after Cao Ren answered Zhang Yan, he looked at the soldiers stationed in the city and gave the order to prepare to retreat, so that the soldiers under his command would wait for his orders at any time.


    Originally, Cao Ren negotiated with Zhang Liao and others and planned to retreat quietly. But in this case, it is obviously impossible. After all, Zhang''s troops are in the city. They can''t easily retreat.


    Zhang jaw heard Cao Ren''s words, but sneered, Cao Ren is now dead duck mouth.


    Under the present premise, Cao Ren will be defeated.


    After Zhang publicized the news of Cao Cao''s defeat, he did not delay any longer and immediately ordered the attack. The attack was full of 30000 elite and 30000 troops.


    Under this attack, Cao Jun, who is defending the city, is facing great pressure. In particular, Cao''s soldiers, as well as those under Liu Bei''s command, all think about Cao Cao''s defeated soldiers and have no desire to fight.


    One by one, the soldiers lost their fighting spirit.


    After fighting for less than half an hour, countless soldiers have climbed the castle.


    The whole defensive side, a complete rout.


    Zhuge Liang stood beside Liu Bei and suggested, "Lord, no matter what, retreat. We will retreat immediately."


    Liu Bei nodded and turned to the east gate of Xiangcheng County.


    Cao Ren also began to retreat.


    But Cao Ren retreated to the south gate.


    Now it''s a time of great calamity. Fly separately and flee separately.


    After Cao Ren and Liu Bei went out of the city, they were killed by the cavalry of the flying bear army. As a result, Cao Ren and Liu Bei suffered great losses in their forces.


    Even if Liu Bei and Cao Ren all withdrew in the end, their losses were enormous. Nearly 40000 troops were in Xiangcheng County, but less than 6000 were actually withdrawn.


    The army suffered countless losses.


    After Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong''s troops entered Xiangcheng County, they began to count the battlefields. In this battle, more than 12000 soldiers killed Cao Jun and Liu Bei, and nearly 20000 were captured.


    The loss of the Qin army was only over 3000.


    For the Qin army, the victory of this war broke the situation of Yingchuan county. In particular, Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong broke the county seat in time, making Cao Ren and Liu Bei retreat in a hurry. All the food and equipment in Xiangcheng County were not taken away, which completely became the supplies of the Qin army.After a little rest in Xiangcheng County, Zhang''s, Huang Zhong''s and aguli''s troops went straight to Xudu. Just on the way to Xudu, we got the news that Cao ang, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu left with their troops.


    When they arrived, the big room was empty.


    Nothing left.


    All the grain Xu Du hoarded, as well as equipment and others, were taken away by Cao ang and others, leaving only an empty shelf.


    But the little emperor stayed.


    Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong frowned when they got the news. They didn''t know what to do with the little emperor. So when the army entered Xudu and took control of Xudu, Zhang Ya, Huang Zhong and a Guli invited Jia Xu, Pang Tong and Sima Yi to join them.


    Huang Zhong said, "ladies and gentlemen, the emperor is still in the palace. What shall we do?"


    Pang Tong said: "Cao Cao''s intention is very obvious, that is to leave the emperor to restrain his highness. In my opinion, the emperor is useless now. Why don''t you kill him directly? "


    "Not right!"


    Sima Yi shook her head and said, "even in the world, there are Yuan Shao as emperor and countless people as king. But after all, in the hearts of countless people, Liu Xie is the orthodox and the real emperor. If we kill the emperor, it will be his highness who will eventually carry the pot. People in the world will think that his highness killed Liu Xie. "


    Huang Zhong looked at Jia Xu and said, "Jia Shangshu, how do you think about it?"


    Jia Xu is the most sophisticated person.


    His opinions are very important.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw. After thinking about it for a while, he said: "in my opinion, Liu Xie''s life can be left behind. But before your highness arrives at Xudu, we have to do one thing well. "


    Huang Zhong said, "what''s the matter?"


    Jia Xu zhengse way: "forced palace, ordered Liu Xie active Zen.". If Liu Xie is killed, his highness will be blamed, and even countless people will curse him. However, we don''t kill Liu Xie and order him to become a monk. In this way, at least most people will have to accept his Highness''s status. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu said, "so now is the time for your highness to become emperor. Cao Cao left Liu Xie, intending to coerce his highness. But now, the emperor has lost his value and can squeeze his last value! "


    "Wonderful


    Pang Tong and Sima Yi spoke at the same time.


    Both of them showed approval, because it was the best way to let Liu Xie meditate. This not only saved Liu Xie''s life, but also enabled Zhang Xiu to go further.


    Even Cao Cao''s intention was broken.


    Huang Zhong, with a look of approval, said excitedly, "what Jia Shangshu said is true. I immediately led the soldiers into the palace and told Liu Xie about it, so that he could prepare for the Zen throne."


    Jia Xu said with a smile, "how can we go together without us in such a grand event?"


    "Go with me!"


    Everyone spoke together.


    A face, all showed a brilliant smile.

 Chapter 942

    Xudu Imperial City, Xuanshi hall.


    Liu xiezheng paced back and forth anxiously, with a nervous look on his face.


    Before that, he got the news that Xun Yu, Cao ang and others led the troops to retreat. Cao ang and others retreated and did not take him with them. Obviously, they did not care about him.


    In fact, Liu Xie is quite happy about this situation.


    Because he is no longer a puppet of Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao''s action is old and spicy. He has no chance at all. Even if Zhang Xiu is in charge of Xu Du, he will be controlled. But Zhang Xiu is young after all. Maybe he has a chance.


    This is what Liu Xie considered.


    But even so, Liu Xie is a little nervous. If everything is not settled, then there is too much uncertainty in this matter, which is the most nervous thing for Liu Xie.


    "Newspaper!"


    A valet entered in a hurry and reported: "Your Majesty, Mr. Dong Cheng asked to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Liu asked.


    In a short time, Dong Cheng entered the main hall and said, "minister Dong Cheng, meet your majesty."


    Liu Xie said, "general Dong doesn''t need to be polite."


    Today, there is only Dong Cheng who can be used by Liu Xie. The rest of Fu Wan, Fu De and others have been killed. He really can''t understand why Cheng Yu wanted to kill Fu Wan and Fu de. it''s reasonable to say that since Cao ang and others are going to withdraw, why don''t they leave some people behind for him? Is it simply to vent their anger?


    Immediately, Liu Xie said, "what''s the matter with general Dong coming to the palace?"


    Dong Cheng replied: "tell your majesty, Zhang Xiu''s army has entered the capital of Xu. Now, it''s coming to the palace. In a quarter of an hour at most, the general under Zhang Xiu will enter the hall. "


    "Here we are at last!"


    Liu Xie looked out of the hall with solemn eyes.


    After getting Zhang Xiu''s army to Xu Du, Liu Xie knew that there would be such a day.


    Liu Xie said: "general Dong, do you think Zhang Xiu''s general will slaughter me wantonly after entering the palace?"


    This is what Liu Xie is worried about.


    Of course, Liu Xie thinks that such a possibility is negligible, but Liu Xie also considers it.


    Dong Cheng said: "Your Majesty, the king of a country, I don''t think Zhang Xiu''s generals dare to come here. What''s more, your majesty is the son of a great man and the respect of a country. How dare they do harm to your majesty? "


    "That''s the expectation!"


    Liu Xie nodded solemnly, with an expectant look on his face.


    They were chatting. After a while, a servant rushed in and reported, "Your Majesty, here comes the army of Qin."


    As the attendant opened his mouth, he saw a crowd of people coming in at the gate of the main hall.


    The leaders were Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan, followed by Jia Xu, Pang Tong and Sima Yi, followed by a group of soldiers dressed in armor with murderous faces.


    Liu Xie was already sitting upright. He was wearing twelve diaos to the sky, wearing crown clothes, with a solemn demeanor. He looked at Sima Yi, Huang Zhong and others who entered, and said nothing.


    The supremacy of Liu Xie shows that he is the master of the Empire.


    He is the son of a great man.


    Dong Cheng stood at the bottom, also with Su Rong on his face.


    "I look like a dog. Unfortunately, I''m a loser. I don''t have much manpower. Such a big man has fallen apart. He has already spent a lot of money. "


    Among the crowd, aguli was the first to speak.


    Aguli was born in Liangzhou.


    As Qiang people in Liangzhou, they naturally have little affection for the emperor of the Han Dynasty.


    Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liangzhou, as a border county, had several rebellions. Every time the imperial court suppressed Liangzhou, it was a river of blood. The bigwigs in the imperial court never paid attention to the life and death of the people in Liangzhou, which led to chaos in Liangzhou.


    Aguli has no respect for the emperor.


    So speaking is swearing.


    Liu Xie Duan was sitting right above him. He wanted to maintain his dignity, but when he heard aguli''s words, his face changed slightly. As the saying goes, from the generals under Zhang Xiu''s command, we can roughly judge what kind of person Zhang Xiu is.


    Zhang Xiu''s general is so rude.


    It can be imagined that Zhang Xiu is also arrogant.


    Dong Cheng is unwilling to damage the reputation of the emperor. After all, after Fu Wan and Fu De were killed, the empress''s relative was in a complete depression, and he was also a relative, so he had to protect Liu Xie''s reputation.


    Dong Cheng stepped out and said, "Your Majesty is here. Even if you are the king of Qin, you don''t dare to insult your majesty. As the king of Qin, you are so rude. Do you want to discredit the king of Qin?"


    His words left a margin of three.


    After all, they don''t have the strength.


    Ah Guli wanted to speak, but Huang Zhong stepped forward, staring at Dong Cheng in front of him, and said, "who are you?"


    "General Dong Cheng!"


    Dong Cheng held his head high and gave a resounding answer.He is an important official of the court.


    It''s the one the emperor depends on.


    "Sonorous!"


    When Huang Zhong heard Dong Cheng''s name, he pulled out his sword. Without any hesitation, he stabbed it out with one sword. With Huang Zhong''s martial arts skills, he was very quick. A light flashed in the air. The next moment, the sword had penetrated into Dong Cheng''s heart.


    Red blood, gurgling.


    Dong Cheng''s eyes widened, and his face showed an incredible look.


    This is killing him directly.


    Zhang Xiu is so bold.


    But Dong Cheng didn''t have the strength to fight back. With Huang Zhong''s sword drawn out, Dong Cheng''s body flopped and fell to the ground. A trace of blood, constantly spilled from the wound, dyed the floor in the hall red.


    Gudong!


    Liu Xie swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    His face was full of awe and fear.


    Originally, Liu Xie thought that when he was under Cao Cao''s command, he was imprisoned everywhere, and he didn''t have any of his own. He even found private places to talk with. Therefore, Liu Xie thinks that it is extremely unwilling to follow Cao Cao.


    To now, he suddenly found that Cao Cao still respected him, but in front of him, Zhang Xiu''s powerful general killed Dong Cheng face to face, which was too lethal.


    I didn''t see him at all.


    Even to kill him.


    In Liu Xie''s eyes, there was fear and uneasiness, and he asked, "you, what are you going to do?"


    Huang Zhong''s face was cold and solemn, and he said: "tell your majesty that Dong Cheng is a treacherous and sycophant, who has bewitched your majesty and made your majesty deceived. So I killed him today. Please let your majesty learn from him."


    Liu Xie was speechless when he heard this. Originally, he had a lot to say, but at this moment, he couldn''t say anything. It was Huang Zhong who gave him a great sense of oppression.


    Huang Zhong was contemptuous when he saw the little emperor''s face.


    Such a person, also want to ZTE Hanshi.


    That''s a fool''s dream!


    Huang Zhong put his sword into the scabbard and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, we are going to the palace together, not for anything else, but for your Majesty''s meditation."


    "Zen position?"


    Liu Xie heard a exclamation, his face was full of panic and incredible expression. As the emperor of the Great Han Dynasty, Huang Zhong''s name is right, and he is also the orthodox of the Great Han Dynasty. But now, Huang Zhong directly proposes to take the Zen throne, which is clearly to usurp the throne.


    Liu Xie said in a deep voice, "no, absolutely not!"


    Huang Zhong said, "why, you little doll don''t want to. Do you want me to kill you first, and then we can make a Zen trick ourselves. You know, this man can''t come back to life after he died. You see, Dong Cheng fell to the ground, and he was too dead to die again. Under this premise, do you really stop thinking about it? "


    In his words, Huang Zhong has full confidence.


    Because in his eyes, just a little emperor, without any strength, it is a very simple and easy thing to handle this little emperor.

 Chapter 943

    Liu Xie said coldly: "the country and country of the Great Han Dynasty has been handed down to me for hundreds of years. I will never be the king of subjugation. I can''t interrupt the inheritance of this great Han Dynasty. "


    He is still reluctant.


    I want to try again.


    Huang Zhong said coldly: "it seems that you are not willing to cooperate. That''s all. I''ll send you down to meet Dong Cheng. As for your unwillingness to cooperate, I will arrange for officers and soldiers to publicize that when Cao Cao''s people withdraw, they will slaughter all the people in the palace, and there will be no one left. And you also died in the hands of Cao ang and others. In this way, it''s nothing to expect. "


    At this time, Huang Zhong moved forward step by step.


    He was more and more murderous.


    This is to kill Liu Xie.


    In particular, Huang Zhong, a fierce general, was originally killed on the battlefield. He had a strong sense of killing and was frightening. Under such a premise, as soon as Liu Xie saw Huang Zhong coming, he collapsed to the ground.


    The crown of the head also falls to the ground.


    He stepped back in a hurry.


    In the eyes, there is a strong fear.


    When Huang Zhong approached him and swung his sword to chop, Liu Xie was really unsteady and said in a loud voice, "I''d like to!"


    His voice fell, just as Huang Zhong''s sword had stopped three inches above Liu Xie''s head. If Liu Xie slows down a little bit, Huang Zhong will have killed Liu Xie.


    Beans big sweat, constantly seeping out from the top of Liu Xie''s head.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Liu Xie was breathing heavily, and his face was extremely scared, still a look of lingering fear.


    Huang Zhong said, "you are wise!"


    Liu Xie collapsed on the ground and looked at Huang Zhong with angry eyes, but it didn''t help. Because he didn''t dare to express his anger in words.


    Just at this time, Jia Xu came up and said, "Your Majesty wants to Zen. Should you know how to Zen?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Liu Xie shook his head and answered.


    Jia Xu said: "since you don''t know, I''ll tell you. Your highness will finally accept your three resignations. Three requests and three speeches are courtesy. "


    Brush!


    Liu Xie''s face changed slightly.


    If it is Zen, he directly gives the position of emperor to Zhang Xiu.


    But three requests and three resignations are humiliating.


    Jia Xu''s eyes narrowed and said coldly, "why, don''t you want to?"


    "Yes, I do!"


    Liu Xie can''t dare to have any refusal, because he found Zhang Xiu under this group of people, more ruthless. Don''t give him any leeway, don''t give him any face, or even don''t cooperate. That''s the matter of losing one''s head.


    Liu Xie can''t make people like this.


    After Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and others settled on the follow-up, they arranged for the soldiers to guard the palace, and then left the palace.


    Huang Zhong and his party have not yet left Xu county, where the army is stationed. Then Huang Zhong began to divide his troops and ordered his generals, as well as the generals of the regular army and the flying Qiang army, to sweep the rest of Yingchuan county with some soldiers.


    This has to be done.


    We must control the whole Yingchuan county.


    At the end of May, the weather gradually became hot. Zhang Xiu''s army went south from Dongjun, got through Chenliu county and other places, entered Xu county of Yingchuan County, and joined Huang Zhong.


    As soon as Huang Zhong, Jia Xu and others saw Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu reported: "Your Highness, now the whole Yingchuan county is almost under the control of the state of Qin. In addition, it is the same in Runan County and other places. When he met the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he publicly said that he was willing to place Zen in his highness and asked his highness to ascend the throne and become emperor. "


    "Please, your highness, ascend the throne and become emperor!"


    Huang Zhong, Sima Yi and others also spoke together.


    On all faces, there is a look of expectation.


    Only if Zhang Xiu is the emperor, then Daqin is the real Daqin.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the matter of becoming emperor will be discussed after returning to Chang''an. Now, send the emperor to Chang''an, so that he can be in custody. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu and others should be the next.


    As long as Zhang Xiu is not explicitly opposed, then this matter will be easy. Moreover, since we want to be emperor, we really want to be in Chang''an. If we want to be emperor in Xudu, it''s not appropriate.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a soldier entered and reported: "Your Highness, there is news from the palace that the little emperor wants to see you."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    After the soldiers retired, Zhang Xiuxian dealt with Yiying''s affairs first, and then took people to the palace. When he entered the palace, he saluted the little emperor and said, "Your Majesty, what''s the matter?"


    "What am I, your majesty? I don''t deserve the name."


    Liu Xie looked dejected. He stood up, pushed the golden mountain down, knelt down in front of Zhang Xiu, and said, "King Qin, can you promise me a request?"Zhang Xiu said: "you say!"


    For Liu Xie, Zhang Xiu has always looked down on him, because Liu Xie is selfish and weak, and has no heroic spirit of a man.


    Liu Xie said: "can we keep the Han Dynasty? I can let you be Regent. You are Regent. You will be in charge of the government. I''ll be a puppet. I don''t care about anything. I don''t meditate. I don''t care about things. You can arrange everything. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think?"


    Liu Xie smiles.


    He knew that at this stage, it was almost impossible for Zhang Xiu to become emperor.


    It''s just that he''s not reconciled.


    He didn''t want to be the king of subjugation.


    Liu Xie still knelt on the ground and pleaded: "King Qin, please. Just ask you not to destroy the great man. As long as you don''t destroy the great man, I can promise you anything. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu answered very simply.


    It is impossible for him to keep the Great Han, because to keep the Great Han is to tell all the people in the world that the Great Han Dynasty still exists, which is the orthodox Dynasty.


    Only Zen can solve this problem.


    Therefore, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to let go of Zen.


    This is a matter of principle.


    When Liu Xie heard Zhang Xiu''s reply, he got up and said, "Zhang Xiu, I believe you so much in the past. I didn''t expect that you are so ambitious. You are so damned, damned! You, like Cao Cao, are the traitors of the Great Han Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "who is to blame? You don''t have the ability yourself, no wonder others. What''s more, Yuan Shaoye city has already been called emperor. Why don''t you go to fight against Yuan Shaoye? "


    Liu Xie said nothing.


    He was furious.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Liu Xie and says, "if you cooperate well, I will give you a chance to die well. If you have any other means, I will not accompany you. Cao Cao will understand this idea and allow you to seize power, but I won''t. I always cut down the grass and root when dealing with things. "


    Liu Xie''s face changed slightly.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s blatant threat.


    However, Liu Xie has no way to take Zhang Xiu. He can only let it go.


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu turned and left.


    After beating Liu Xie, Zhang Xiu returned to the barracks and began to count the current situation. Now that Zhang Xiu has conquered Dongjun, Chenliu, Ying and other places, she has completely established herself.


    Cao Cao''s offensive was constantly weakened.


    Even Cao Cao withdrew completely.


    Under this premise, it is not too difficult for Zhang Xiu to destroy Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu''s army had a rest in Xudu for three days. After everything was done, they arranged for Liu Xie to be sent away. Then Zhang Xiu sent troops again and began to go in the direction of Taishan county.


    If you defeat Cao Cao, you have to work hard to win.


    There is no delay.


    When Zhang Xiu was sweeping around, Yuan Shao in Jizhou on the back also got the news that Cao Cao was defeated like a mountain. Today, Yuan Shao is quite afraid of Zhang Xiu, and his heart is very uneasy, so even if Zhang Xiu attacks Cao Cao, Yuan Shao does not dare to help.

 Chapter 944

    Ye City, in the imperial city.


    During this period, Yuan Shao had a lot of time to play. He began to be diligent in government affairs and deal with all kinds of things. Yuan Shao has been paying close attention to all kinds of news in Yanzhou.


    When the news of Cao Cao''s defeat came back, Yuan Shaoxian couldn''t believe it, because even though Cao Cao was weaker than Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t even lose Xu Du''s nest, or even Cao Cao didn''t have any strength to compete.


    It''s really shocking.


    But that''s the truth.


    Yuan Shao was also a man of some insight. He knew that if Cao Cao was really destroyed, he would be helpless. So Yuan Shao immediately lined up a single person, and sent people to call Jushi, Shenpei and Guotu.


    Yuan Shao looked at Ju''s teaching and examination, and said, "you all know about the war in the state of Wei. The latest news is that Cao Cao retreated to Taishan county. What should we do? "


    The judge said: "Your Majesty, if Cao Cao is really exterminated by Zhang Xiu, it will be a great threat to us. So I suggest that we send troops into Yanzhou to help Cao Cao resist Zhang Xiu''s army."


    Yuan Shaochen said: "first, Xi''er is still in Zhang Xiu''s hands; second, once we send troops to help Cao Cao, then Zhang Xiu has a reason to attack us. As far as I know, Liu Bei''s state of Chu has been destroyed and defeated by Zhang Xiu''s army. If I take part in it, I''m afraid our country will be in danger. "


    The judge said: "Your Majesty, even if the second prince is still in the hands of Zhang Xiu, you can''t fight against Zhang Xiu just because of the second prince. What''s more, after Zhang Xiu exterminates Cao Cao, the next one to exterminate is us. "


    The current situation is very clear.


    This is a matter of life and death.


    If they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and if they are also afraid of offending Zhang Xiu, then in the end, they will surely perish.


    There is no dispute.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes turned and fell on Ju Shou, saying, "Ju Qing, what do you think?"


    Ju said: "Your Majesty, I agree with the analysis of trial and match. If we don''t care about Cao Cao, then in the end, the great Jin State will be a lonely country. The best way to fight against Zhang Xiu''s army is to help Cao Cao and not let him fall. Of course, it would be quite difficult for the state of Jin to send troops to support Cao Cao. "


    Yuan Shao''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    He also thought it was very difficult to send troops, and his words hit Yuan Shao''s heart.


    Yuan Shao said, "go on!"


    Ju continued: "first, the state of Jin has just experienced a turmoil, and its financial resources are limited, so it is difficult to support the recruitment of soldiers into Yanzhou to help Cao Cao. If we do not recruit soldiers to support Cao Cao, but mobilize our original forces to enter Taishan County of Yanzhou, then our own security of the state of Jin will not be guaranteed. "


    "Second, it''s true that sending troops to support Cao Cao is tantamount to giving Zhang Xiu a reason to be against us."


    "Third, the main task of the state of Jin today is to protect itself."


    "So the best way for us to support Cao Cao now is to give him food and weapons," he said. Although the country is turbulent and financially difficult, there are countless grains and weapons accumulated over the years in our treasuries. The soldiers were dispatched to send these grains and weapons, and even a number of war horses to Yanzhou. If we help Zhang Xiu in this way, it''s already the limit. "


    Yuan Shao nodded.


    Yuan Shao agreed with Ju''s analysis.


    Guo Tu didn''t speak all the time, but when he saw that Yuan Shao had some ideas, he immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have different opinions."


    He secretly has been submissive to Zhang Xiu.


    He didn''t want yuan shaochi to help Cao Cao, which made it more difficult for Zhang Xiu to kill Cao Cao.


    Yuan Shao said, "say it!"


    Guo Tu zhengse said: "the theory that lips are dead and teeth are cold really exists, and it is quite reasonable. But I think there is no impermeable wall in this world. If we send troops to support Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu will catch us with his eloquence. But the same, as long as Zhang Xiu wants to target us, even if we don''t send troops, only send people to send out food, it''s the same. It doesn''t make any difference. "


    Yuan Shao stroked his beard under his jaw and said: "what Guo Tu said is really the truth. If Zhang Xiu wants to find fault, let alone deliver grain, I''m afraid that if we say a word, it may become a reason for Zhang Xiu to target us."


    After a pause, Yuan Shao said, "Guo Tu, what do you think we should do?"


    Guo Tu said: "I think that now we can consider arranging envoys to Chang''an to make an alliance with Zhang Xiu, so that the two sides can resolve their conflicts, become allies and not invade each other. After this treaty was announced to the world, Zhang Xiu could not attack Jin at will. In this way, the security of our country will be guaranteed. As for Cao Cao, although he is defeated for the time being, he is not at the end of his tether. There is no need to support him. "


    "Ridiculous!"


    With a cold face, Professor Ju scolded: "we make an alliance with Zhang Xiu and place our safety on Zhang Xiu''s idea. This is totally inappropriate and even more ridiculous."Guo Tu said: "in that case, please let Mr. Ju lead the army to fight against Zhang Xiu''s army. With the fierce use of war, I expect to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    She had a twitch in her cheek.


    If Zhang Jinxiu is not the leader, he will be defeated.


    Guo Tu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Ju, what you''re planning is for the state of Jin, and what I''m planning is also for the state of Jin. However, they have different starting points and different considerations. "


    "Your Majesty, please make a decision!"


    Guo Tu bowed himself.


    "Your Majesty, please make a decision!"


    Ju also turned to face Yuan Shao, waiting for Yuan Shao''s verdict. In the current situation, it is useless for him to say more clearly. It depends on Yuan Shao''s decision.


    The judge agreed: "Your Majesty, I agree with the suggestion of Mr. Ju. We can''t trust the security of Jin State on a letter. We have to rely on ourselves."


    Yuan Shao''s expression changed again and again.


    He also fell into a difficult choice, because the public said that the public was reasonable, and the old woman said that the old woman was reasonable. Guo Tu and Ju Shu had their own starting point for the sake of the state of Jin.


    Yuan Shao beat the desk in front of him and said after a moment: "the alliance with Zhang Xiu is on hold. At present, we still need to help Cao Cao. "Yes, you will arrange it, and supply food, weapons and horses."


    "Here it is


    If you bow, you should.


    As soon as Yuan Shao waved his hand, everyone stepped down.


    After Jushi, Guotu and Shenpei walked out of the hall, Jushi stared at Guotu and said in a deep voice, "Guotu, it''s ridiculous to place all your hopes on Zhang Xiu. I didn''t expect you to make such a remark. It''s really surprising. "


    Guo Tu said: "Mr. Ju, you can see the strength of Zhang Xiu. Cao Cao''s 80000 troops were in Dongjun, but less than 10000 people fled. Especially when Liu Bei was defeated, Liu Bei fled with Cao Cao, and Zhang Xiu also won in Yingchuan County, both of which had already won Xu Du. Under such a premise, it''s not necessarily wise to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. "


    She snorted, brushed her sleeves, turned and left.


    The judge also left with him.


    Guo Tu didn''t explain anything. He went straight back to his house and wrote a letter quickly. Then he sent out the news that Yuan Shao was going to arrange people to deliver grain to Taishan County of Yanzhou.


    This is to let Zhang Xiu know, so that Zhang Xiu can make a response.


    After all this, Guo Tu relaxed.


    As a matter of fact, today''s Guo Tu doesn''t think it''s a bad thing for him to submit to Zhang Xiu. On the contrary, he thinks it''s a good thing, because it''s only a matter of time before Zhang Xiu conquers Xu Du, defeats Cao Cao and sweeps the whole state of Wei.


    Zhang Xiu''s capture of the whole world is just around the corner.


    Yuan Shao is on the decline.


    Under this premise, Guo Tu is willing to work for Zhang Xiu and plan for her everywhere.

 Chapter 945

    Xu Du, in the city.


    The palace of King Wei.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu lives in Cao Cao''s Wei palace. He is now in Xudu, and his troops are already sweeping the rest of Yanzhou.


    Since Cao Cao withdrew, Zhang Xiu took it for herself.


    Took these places.


    In order to gradually encroach on the state of Wei controlled by Cao Cao, especially in the areas under Cao Cao''s rule, the people''s life is still tolerable. Therefore, it is not easy for the people to attach themselves to the Qin Dynasty. Many officials need to be adjusted to weaken Cao Cao''s influence.


    All this needs to be arranged.


    In the study, Zhang Xiu is looking at the news from the royal guards.


    The news is all about Cao Cao.


    Today, Cao Cao retreated to Taishan county and built fortifications in Taishan County, ready to resist Zhang Xiu.


    Outside the study, footsteps came.


    But Wang Yue came in in a hurry. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and said, "Your Highness, Guo Tu, there is news about Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao, who has never taken action, has made arrangements."


    With that, Wang Yue handed over the letter.


    After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu quickly scanned it, laughed and said: "this time, Guo Tu really sent another big gift. Last time, Guo Tu sent out the news of Yuan Xi''s attack, so that Chen Dao could capture Yuan Xi alive and 3000 yuan soldiers alive. Now, Yuan Shao is ready to help Cao Cao. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "however, Yuan Shao did not send troops in, but arranged a team of soldiers to escort a batch of grain, weapons and horses to Taishan county. Obviously, it is because of the loss of Cao Cao''s support. "


    Wang Yue said: "Guo TU was forced to surrender at that time, but he must have been driven by the wind. If your highness can''t win for a long time, he won''t help us. But now, his Highness has won one after another to destroy Cao Cao, so Guo Tu also hopes to make contributions and gain his Highness''s trust. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s what it is."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "come and call Zhao Yun."


    The attendant outside the door, go to inform immediately.


    Not long after, Zhao Yun entered the study, clasped his fists and saluted, saying: "at the end, General Zhao Yun, meet your highness."


    When Zhang Xiu heard Zhao Yun''s address, she was not surprised. Whether it was Zhao Yun or Zhang Ren, she strictly abided by the rules and did not want to overstep them. Zhang Xiu said: "younger martial brother, there is one thing you need to carry out now."


    Zhao Yun said, "Your Highness, please tell me!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "just got the news from Guo Tu, Yuan Shao has arranged a team of soldiers to escort a batch of grain, weapons and horses to Taishan county. You mobilize 3000 Baima Yicong under your command to leave Xudu as soon as possible and go to the border of Taishan county to hide and prepare to intercept this batch of grain and weapons."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun''s fist should be thrown.


    After a pause, Zhao Yun said, "Your Highness, do you have more detailed information?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "the specific route, the number of people on the other side, or even more information, is not available. Now there is only such a simple piece of news. "


    Zhao Yun said: "the end will understand!"


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun turned and stepped down.


    Wang Yue said: "Your Highness, if General Zhao succeeds in intercepting Yuan Shao''s motorcade like this. At that time, will Yuan Shao doubt Guo Tu, which will have an impact on him? After all, today''s Guo Tu is of great help to his highness. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "first, the royal guards of Daqin are well-known and well-informed. The news of Yuan Shao''s escorting grain team is leaked, so it may not be suspected of Guo Tu''s body. "


    "Second, even if it comes to Guo Tu''s suspicion, that''s what Guo Tu should consider. If he can''t avoid this problem, what can he do? "


    "Third, even if Guo TU was dealt with, it would be OK. In the great Jin Dynasty, even people like Guo Tu were subordinated to the king. After the news is detonated, we can imagine how much influence it will have on the official circles of the Jin Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so all this, do not have to worry."


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Wang Yue bowed slightly and spoke respectfully.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, however, there is a look of expectation. If Cao Cao gets Yuan Shao''s support, and eventually all the grain and weapons fall into Zhang Xiu''s hands, how angry would Cao Cao be?


    Zhang Xiu is looking forward to it.


    Yanzhou, Taishan county.


    Cao Cao is now stationed in fenggao County, the seat of Taishan county.


    Cao Cao''s palace was also set up here.


    Today, Cao Cao has joined Cao ang, Xun Yu, Xun you and others, and all the troops and personnel belonging to Cao Cao have gathered here. However, for Cao Cao, the most important thing was that the people under his command were in a panic.Many officials under Wei Guozhi were worried about being defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is powerful.


    In particular, the loss of Xu Du led to the loss of a lot of money. Even if Cao ang and others withdrew ahead of time and took away a large amount of money, food and weapons, they could not take all of them away, resulting in considerable losses.


    Such a loss made Cao Cao lose a lot.


    So during this period of time, Cao Cao''s life was quite difficult. He was constantly transferring grain from all over the country. In addition, he was also recruiting soldiers to prepare to resist Zhang Xiu.


    In the palace, Cao Cao is dealing with government affairs.


    Today''s Cao Cao is too busy to touch the ground, and there are so many things.


    In particular, Cao Cao''s temples are completely white and old. Originally, Cao Cao was ill, but now, his illness is more and more serious, his body is thin, although not to the point of being emaciated, but also his body is incomparably weak.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of footwork came from outside the hall.


    But Cheng Yu hurried in.


    Cheng Yu''s face, brimming with a faint smile, said: "Your Highness, Yuan Shao arranged for people to send letters."


    Seeing Yuan Shao''s smile rising, Cao Cao said, "Mr. Zhong De''s face is full of smiles. Is that good news?"


    Cheng Yu replied, "Your Highness, we are in trouble. Although Yuan Shao did not take the initiative to send troops for help, Yuan Shao arranged for soldiers to escort a batch of grain, weapons and horses. There were 100000 stones, 30000 swords, 6000 sets of armour, and 3000 horses. It''s not a heavy gift, but at this time, it''s very important for us. It can be regarded as a timely help, which can temporarily alleviate our urgent need. "


    When Cao Cao heard this, he also laughed and said, "it''s true that weapons and armour are of great use, not to mention the 100000 stone grain and 3000 war horses. This time, Yuan Shao was generous. "


    Cheng Yu stroked his white beard under his jaw and said, "once the state of Wei was in a desperate situation, the state of Jin, Yuan Shao''s, would not escape. Yuan Shao did it for himself. "


    Cao Cao nodded: "yes, but Yuan Shao is too short-sighted. If he unites with us and forces together, he may not lose if he directly fights Zhang Xiu. However, Yuan Shao is afraid of Zhang Xiu and thinks more about his second son Yuan Xi, so he is not willing to fight with Zhang Xiu. This time, Zhang Xiu just stationed a little troops in Hanoi County, which scared Yuan Shao not to act rashly. Today''s Yuan Shao, even if he is not willing to be suppressed by Zhang Xiu, is scared to death. "


    Cheng Yu said, "what your highness said is true."


    Cao Cao sighed: "but now, we also have to organize defense fortifications as soon as possible. Zhang Xiu constantly sweeps all counties and countries in Yanzhou. It won''t take long to return."


    Cheng Yu said, "it''s true!"


    Cao Cao said, "go ahead, Duke Zhongde!"


    "Here it is


    Cheng Yu is no longer delay time, turned back, to deal with the matter in his custody.

 Chapter 946

    Zhao Yun''s white horse Yi Cong, quietly left Xu Du, then galloped all the way. Fortunately, it''s nearly June now. At night, the moon is bright, and you can see the road clearly, so you can hurry.


    Zhao Yun ambush day and night, Rao is so, still in a short time, he arrived at the border of Taishan county to hide.


    When the army was stationed, Zhao Yun sent sentries to inquire about the news.


    Waiting for the convoy to arrive.


    It''s not too hot to hide in the forest in June when the sun is burning.


    The only pain is that there are many mosquitoes in the forest.


    It''s hard.


    One by one, the soldiers endured the mosquito bites and waited quietly.


    Towards the middle of June, when Zhao Yun''s soldiers were still hiding in the mountains, a sentinel came back quickly and said, "general, Yuan Shao''s food escort team has come. It''s less than ten miles away from us. The number of people escorting the grain is about 3000, all of them are elite with top helmets. "


    "I see. Let''s explore again!"


    Zhao Yun gave an order.


    Sentry again left, and Zhao Yun is under the order, let all soldiers prepare for war.


    Time goes by little.


    The distance is getting closer.


    Bali!


    Six li!


    When the distance between the two sides was less than three li, Zhao Yun no longer hesitated. He turned over and mounted the horse. He ordered in a deep voice: "pass the order, white horse, follow me!"


    With Zhao Yun''s order, the white horses hiding in the forest quickly rode out of the forest and came to the official road. All the people lined up, showing a strong murderous spirit.


    The whole white horse is loyal and full of fighting spirit.


    Everyone is ready for war.


    "Kill


    Zhao Yun directly ordered.


    He took the lead and rushed to the front.


    "Boom!"


    Three thousand horses trampled on the ground and made a rapid sprint. The horses ran down and trampled on the ground, making the whole ground tremble and smoke rise.


    although the two sides have not yet felt the rapid rush of the horses from the white horse to the white horse.


    Even a war horse, at first restless.


    In Yuan''s army, the general who led the army was named yuan ang. This man was yuan Shang''s cousin. He offered himself and invited him to escort the grain. After all, it was a small matter, and he could sell Cao Cao a good deal.


    So yuan ang came on his own initiative.


    In Yuan Ang''s heart, he never thought that the enemy would cut off the grain. After all, Yuan Shao sent the grain to Cao Cao. It was a very confidential matter and he never told anyone.


    Under such a premise, Yuan ang thought that even if there was a shock in front of him, he was not an ambush army, but probably a cavalry of Cao army.


    After all, it''s at the border.


    It is about to enter the boundary of Yanzhou.


    Yuan ang looked relaxed and looked around at the soldiers on the way. He said, "maybe Cao Cao sent someone to meet him. Don''t be nervous. Just follow me."


    "Boom!"


    The sound of the horse''s hooves grew more rapid.


    A moment later, a cavalry appeared on the official road ahead. All the cavalry were white horses. They went straight to the grain delivery team.


    Yuan ang saw it and blinked. When did Cao Cao have such a cavalry on a white horse.


    Tiger and leopard riding is not like this!


    Even the rest of Cao Cao''s cavalry were not so elite.


    Most importantly, the cavalry was getting closer and closer to them, but the speed of their journey did not drop at all. When the distance between the two sides is less than 200 steps, it is reasonable that the cavalry should slow down. Otherwise, once the distance is shortened, it will be difficult to stop, but the other side has no intention to slow down.


    "It''s white horse Yicong!"


    In the crowd, suddenly there was a soldier.


    When Yuan ang heard the cry, he realized that only Baima Yicong under Zhang Xiu was dressed like this. At this moment, Yuan ang felt numb on his scalp and trembled all over.


    "Array, array resist!"


    Yuan ang raised his voice.


    In his voice, there was already a tremor, and he was afraid of killing the white horse. Although the 3000 soldiers under his command are elite, in fact, they are far behind in the face of Baima Yicong. They are not rivals at all.


    What''s more, they are cavalry.


    It was too late, but it was too fast. The distance between the two sides was less than 120 steps.


    Zhao Yun and his white horse Yi Cong are still on their way, and they have no intention of stopping. In his hand, he raised the gun, pointed to the front, and roared, "white horse, Yi Cong, kill!""Kill


    Three thousand white horses, Yicong, shout up.


    The sound of shouting and killing is like a mountain calling for a tsunami. It''s extremely loud and goes straight to the sky.


    In particular, three thousand white horse righteousness spread from the spread, all over the open and flat fields, and surrounded the grain transport team closely.


    This momentum is appalling.


    Yuan Ang''s heart was originally to order the soldiers under his command to form an array to resist. Can see this kill white horse righteousness from, see that fierce momentum, already is frighten with fear, legs tremble.


    I really don''t have the courage to kill.


    I really don''t have the courage to fight!


    "Withdraw!"


    Yuan ang immediately gave an order that he would no longer be in charge of the trucks of grain lying on the official road or the war horses detained in the rear. With Yuan Ang''s retreat, the soldiers under his command turned their direction and did not dare to stay.


    Everyone is afraid of being killed.


    "Run away!"


    "The Qin army is coming."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the shouts rang out among the soldiers under yuan Ang''s command. Even such words, not only the soldiers escorting, but also the soldiers transporting grain, were all flustered. If they didn''t move forward, they gave up the carriage in front of them, gave up the grain in their hands, and directly flew back.


    One by one, they retreated very fast.


    However, the running of both legs, after all, is not equal to the galloping of the horse. The distance of more than a hundred steps is just a blink of an eye for the running horse.


    Bai Ma Yi, led by Zhao Yun, went to the rear of Yuan''s soldiers and killed them with a knife.


    The light of the knife flickered and screamed.


    A corpse, falling down.


    One by one, Yuan soldiers were killed.


    More and more people have been killed and injured.


    Yuan Ang''s face was full of anxiety. He retreated quickly and didn''t care about the rear. Even if the rear kill into a river, he also can''t manage, he now just want to escape.


    That''s what matters.


    Yuan ang kept on fleeing. When he got away from the battlefield, he was surprised to find that there were less than 300 soldiers around him.


    Zhao Yun has begun to count the losses at the place where the grain gathered.


    This time, no more than forty-six of his white horse followers were injured. Although some of the other soldiers were injured, they were only slightly injured. They were all harmless injuries.


    The yuan army killed by Baima Yicong was more than 1600 and captured more than 800 people.


    It was a very easy battle.


    A small school came to Zhao Yun''s side and reported: "general, there are a lot of grain in this batch. Besides, there are many war horses, armor and weapons. What should we do with them?"


    Zhao Yun''s heart is also thinking.


    100000 stone grain is not a small amount. It would be a pity if all of them were burned.


    Especially 3000 horses.


    This is also strategic material.


    Whether it''s war horses, or armor, weapons, or food, that''s extremely important.


    After thinking for a long time, Zhao Yun made a decision in his heart and ordered: "gather all the prisoners together, order the prisoners and the soldiers who had transported grain before, and let them transport grain to Dongjun for us. No matter whether it''s war horses or grain or weapons, they will not be destroyed. They will be taken away. "


    But the school was worried and solemnly said, "if so, our whereabouts will be exposed. If Cao''s army comes to kill on a large scale, we will only have 3000 soldiers and horses. How can we fight? "


    When Zhao Yun heard the speech, a light flashed in his eyes.


    He had plans for that.


    Otherwise, all the food, weapons and war horses would not be taken away.

 Chapter 947

    Zhao Yun looked confident and solemnly said: "if Cao Cao did not escape to Taishan County, I would not dare to swagger and leave at the border of Taishan county. But now Cao Cao is a lost dog. "


    "At this time, we swaggered away, which made Cao Cao suspicious. He thought that we deliberately did so, because there were ambushes in the dark to prepare for the ambush to rob and kill our troops."


    "Of course, if Cao Cao sent a small group of troops, with our 3000 white horses, we could easily defeat each other. So for us, no matter what, we are in an invincible position. "


    After a pause, Zhao Yun said again: "even if Cao Cao, regardless of everything, mobilized a large army to kill him, at this stage, we can still leave the grain and weapons, and the horses. We are white horses who come and go like the wind. We can evacuate quickly, so we don''t need to worry about it. "


    After listening, the young general was also bright in front of his eyes and praised: "the general is wise!"


    He agrees with Zhao Yun''s analysis.


    In today''s situation, Cao Cao is not the Cao Cao of the past, but the sunset.


    Zhao Yun added: "but before that, we can''t take it lightly. You immediately arrange two soldiers to go to Xudu as soon as possible. Your highness will arrange someone to meet them. Don''t be afraid of ten thousand, just in case. If your Highness''s army takes over, we will not be afraid even if we are attacked. "


    "Here it is


    I''m going to make arrangements immediately.


    After the soldiers left first, Zhao Yun delayed a day. This was a deliberate delay, so that the sentinel could return first. In the morning of the next day, Zhao Yun swaggered to Dongjun with his horses, grain and armor.


    Although Zhao Yun did not publicize, he did not hide his whereabouts.


    Just like this, he was soon discovered by Cao Jun''s Sentinel.


    When Zhao Yun''s troops had left Taishan County, Cao''s sentinel came to fenggao County, met Guo Jia, and quickly reported the news that the grain had been robbed.


    Guo Jia sighed.


    Cao Cao and his officials knew about Yuan Shao''s sending food, armor, weapons and horses. They were glad that Yuan Shao would send charcoal in the snow.


    For today''s Cao Cao, these grains, armor, weapons and war horses are crucial.


    But now, it''s all taken away.


    Guo Jia came to Cao Cao''s room where he dealt with the affairs. At the moment, Xun Yu, Xun you and Cheng Yu were all in the room, discussing what to do next. Guo Jia saw that they were three people, and did not hide. He directly said that the grain had been robbed.


    After finishing, Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, what''s strange about the news now is that the white horse Yicong led by Zhao Yun never hid his whereabouts, but swaggered on his way."


    Cao Cao zhengse said: "the meaning of fengxiao is that Zhang Xiu deliberately did it, let us know the news, and then wait for us to attack Baima Yicong in front of us. But in fact, Zhang Xiu arranged an ambush in the dark, intending to ambush us. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    Guo Jia said, "this is the way to judge a humble position."


    Cao Cao is also a master of the art of war, and he made his own judgment in his heart. He said in a deep voice: "there is a certain truth in your consideration of filial piety, but suppose that this is Baima Yi''s deliberate bluff due to the lack of troops? In fact, they are unprotected forces. "


    "We can''t rule that out," Guo said


    Xun you said, "Your Highness, I really can''t rule out that it was Bai Ma Yi who fought alone. But Yuan Shao and we all know about Yuan Shao''s food donation from beginning to end. How did Zhang Xiu know? "


    "Of course, there is no way to judge."


    "There''s no reason."


    "But for us, we don''t need to look for the reason at all. We just need to be clear. That is, Zhang Xiu knew that Yuan ang came to Taishan county with grain."


    "Under this premise, since Zhang Xiu clearly knows, why not send more troops, but just arrange for baimayi to seize food?"


    Xun you said: "so I think that Zhang Xiu may have arranged an ambush, but this ambush has been hidden in the dark, which is aimed at us."


    After hearing this, Cao Cao nodded in agreement.


    What Xun you said is reasonable.


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly: "now that this batch of grain, weapons and horses are gone, it seems that they can''t be taken back. Under this premise, there is no need to worry about other things. The main task at present is to stabilize the situation. Yanzhou and Yuzhou are in turmoil, and most of them fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Cheng Yu said: "but Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places can not be lost, let alone have any problems. We must stabilize these places. Originally, when his highness was strong, there would be no trouble everywhere. But now, his Highness has been badly hit, and people everywhere may not have other thoughts. "


    Cao Cao said, "what Duke Zhongde said is true."


    Although he said that, Cao Cao''s heart was still oppressed.


    Anyway, he is also a vassal, and his strength is not weak. But now, even Zhang Xiu''s army can''t go after him when they enter the territory of Taishan county. It''s really disappointing.When Cao Cao did not make any move, Yuan ang on the other side also returned to Yecheng.


    As soon as he returned, he went straight to the palace to meet Yuan Shao.


    When Yuan ang saw Yuan Shao, he knelt down on the ground with a plop. He was in tears and said, "Your Majesty, as soon as I entered the boundary of Taishan County, I was ambushed. It was the white horse Yicong under Zhang Xiu who ambushed us. Only three or four hundred soldiers withdrew, and all the horses, grain and armour were taken away. Your majesty is requested to surrender. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao couldn''t help shouting.


    Three thousand horses!


    Ten thousand stone grain!


    There are also a number of armor and weapons, which are the painstaking efforts of Yuan Shao. In fact, even if Yuan Shao''s family had a great career, it would consume a lot of money. It would not be easy to support Cao Cao with 100000 stone grain and some armor weapons.


    But now, it''s all gone.


    There''s nothing left.


    The result made Yuan Shao angry.


    Yuan ang was uneasy, but he also explained: "Your Majesty, the general does not want to lose food and horses. However, there are a large number of Baima Yicong under Zhang Xiu''s command, with Zhao Yun as the main general. All the soldiers under my command are infantry. That''s what leads to a complete defeat. Your majesty, please learn from it. "


    After a pause, Yuan ang continued: "especially the most important thing is that all the way south to Taishan County, the information is kept secret from beginning to end. But Zhang Xiu''s army had been waiting for the grain transportation team led by the general. The news leaked so early, it is very likely that there is something wrong with us. Your majesty, please learn from it


    This is yuan Ang''s way of shirking responsibility.


    Now he has made a big mistake and lost 100000 tons of grain. It would be too difficult for him to bear the responsibility. The best way is to find a scapegoat and push out the responsibility.


    So yuan ang said that there may be internal problems.


    When Yuan Shao heard this, he frowned and thought more about it.

 Chapter 948

    This time, Yuan ang led the troops to escort the grain, which was a very secret thing. In a flash, Zhang Xiu not only knew, but also arranged for people to ambush at the border of Taishan county.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu got the news early.


    Yuan Shao even thought about Yuan Xi. Last time, Yuan Xi took 3000 soldiers with him to investigate the details of the Qin army in dangyin county. But when he entered dangyin County, he was ambushed and completely annihilated.


    If there was only one thing, Yuan Shao''s heart would not have doubts.


    But when the two things were together, Yuan Shao was a little suspicious.


    Who is it?


    Yuan Shao''s heart, thinking about the suspicious object.


    Is it a teacher?


    Is that Guo Tu?


    Is it a match?


    No matter which one of these three people, they are all the people that Yuan Shao relies on most. But the problem is that when he first has something, he always discusses with them. The people below just carry out it, and no more people know about it. As for yuan Shang, he knew something, but Yuan Shao was his son and could not betray him.


    Yuan Shao''s heart, thinking about the candidates.


    But the problem is that the other major civil servants have no access to any secrets.


    Who is it?


    Yuan Shao''s heart, thinking carefully.


    After thinking about it in his heart, he said, "come and see me in the palace."


    "Here it is


    A soldier answered outside the hall.


    After a short time, Jushi entered the hall. When he saw Yuan Shao, he bowed to him and said, "I don''t know if your majesty is calling. What''s the emergency?"


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "Yuan ang came back. His team was ambushed by Baima Yicong at the border of Taishan County, where Jizhou and Yanzhou were handed over. All the supplies were gone."


    Brush!


    He changed his face slightly and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this matter is very secret. In addition to the humble position, Guo Tu and the judge, the prince and Yuan ang know it, and the people below don''t know it. "


    Yuan Shao carefully observed the changes in the expression of Jushou, and saw that there was no abnormality in Jushou''s expression, so he said, "juqing, what I''m worried about is that someone may collude with Zhang Xiu and have already urged her."


    When I heard that, I immediately understood.


    Yuan Shao was suspicious.


    Obviously, Yuan Shao doubted him, but he was open-minded and fearless, so he said solemnly after hearing Yuan Shao''s words: "Your Majesty, if you are a minister, then I will not die well. I followed your Majesty in my early years, and I will never change my mind. Please learn from your majesty. "


    Yuan Shao said, "I believe in you."


    After a pause, Yuan Shao said, "I''m the first one to call you. I''m asking you for advice? If I don''t believe you, I won''t call you immediately. "


    After listening, I thought.


    He pondered over the solution.


    It is necessary to find out the culprits in this room, otherwise there will be problems in any major decision in the future.


    Yuan Shao asked, "Ju Qing, do you have a solution?"


    "Yes!"


    I''ll just answer.


    Yuan Shao leaned forward slightly and said, "how can juqing get out of here?"


    Ju said: "now that this is the case, let''s make a plan and try to find out the match and Guo Tu. Your majesty, please summon Guo Tu and his wife, tell them the news of Yuan Ang''s defeat, and then tell them that they are not willing to be robbed of grain and war horses, and are ready to arrange a general to lead cavalry to kill Ben Dongjun. Instead of breaking the enemy, they just want to make all the war horses disperse and destroy the grain. "


    After a pause, he said: "since one of us has a spy, the spy will surely pass on the news when he gets the news. Your majesty only needs to arrange for people to look at the residence of Shen Pei and Guo Tu, so you can definitely find out the people behind the scenes. "


    "Wonderful


    Yuan Shao''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    This is a good strategy. If one of Guo Tu and his partners really surrenders to Zhang Xiu, he will certainly not be able to sit still and spread the news.


    This is the opportunity!


    Yuan Shao chin said: "it is worthy of being juqing, that is, there is a way."


    Ju said, "Your Majesty, I praise you


    Yuan Shao immediately arranged for people to call Guo Tu and Shen Pei to the main hall. Yuan Shao looked at Guo Tu and his mate, and said in a deep voice, "Ju Shou just got the news from Yuan ang, and Yuan Ang''s team was ambushed. As a result, all the grain, war horses, armor and weapons fell into the hands of Baima Yicong under Zhang Xiu''s command. Now they are going to the East County


    While speaking, Yuan Shao stares at Guo Tu and Shen Pei. In his heart, he doubted whether he was one of Guo Tu and his partners? But Guo Tu didn''t show it. He just looked at the two people and their response.


    Guo Tu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it''s very important that the 100000 stone grain is robbed. I think it''s possible to arrange someone to recover it?"The judge said, "Your Majesty, I''m against going after you. Now that Zhang Xiuming has robbed all the grain, under such a premise, if we go after it now, we may be ambushed. "


    Guo Tu said, "Your Majesty, please judge."


    "Your Majesty, please judge!"


    Trial and match is also an opening.


    They have their own opinions.


    Yuan Shao brushed his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "whether it''s Guo Tu or the trial and match, there''s a certain truth. But Zhang Xiu arranged a little white horse to follow him, and he took away so much of my food. Such a vengeance is inevitable. Zhao Yun, in particular, is the murderer who captured my son Yuan Tan. I''m not willing to take this revenge. "


    Ju said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan."


    Yuan Shao said, "say it!"


    He said: "please take Liu Wen as the general and lead six thousand elite riders to Dongjun as soon as possible. Not to defeat Zhao Yun, but to disperse all the horses and destroy all the grain. Under such a premise, even if Bai Ma Yi is powerful, he has nothing to do


    Liu Wen is a general in the army.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao thought about it for a while and pretended, "if what juqing said is true, he will do it according to juqing''s suggestion."


    "Here it is


    "I''m sure I''ll arrange it properly," he said


    "It''s all gone!"


    As soon as Yuan Shao''s sleeves were brushed, the people under his command dispersed.


    After Jushi, Shenpei and Guotu walked out together, Shenpei looked at Jushi and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Ju, I don''t think it''s appropriate to pursue him, even if your way is to harass Baima Yicong, destroy the grain and make all the horses flee. But in this case, it will also give Zhang Xiu an opportunity to take advantage of. "


    Ju zhengse said: "master Shen, you should be clear that this time, it was Baima Yi who carried away the grain and the horses. If it were someone else, perhaps your Majesty would put out his anger and restrain his mind. However, under the influence of Zhao Yun, your Majesty''s anger must be hard to contain, so I took advantage of the situation. It not only helps your Majesty''s mind, but also allows your majesty to take a breath, and can save the army of Jin. That''s all I can do. "


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "what you have said is very true. Under the current situation, it can only be done like this. Well, looking forward to this time, it''s inspiring to be able to win. "


    He frowned at the news.


    From Guo Tu''s words, he seems to smell an unusual smell, which is not what Guo Tu should say. But he didn''t say much. After bowing his hands, he turned and left.

 Chapter 949

    After returning to his house, Guo Tu began to write letters. Yuan Shao had to arrange for people to pursue him. This was another chance to deal with Yuan Shao, so Guo Tu quickly wrote the letter, and then called his confidants to deliver it. It''s just that the messenger, not long after he got out of his house, was taken down and the letter was found.


    This letter was soon sent to Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao was furious when he saw Guo Tu''s handwriting and the news.


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    "Guo Tu, a villain, is even angry with me."


    Yuan Shao kept drinking and swearing, walking back and forth, his face full of anger. You know Guo TU was the first to follow him, but such a person betrayed him and passed his decision on to Zhang Xiu.


    The fall of Yuan Xi was caused by Guo Tu.


    Guo TU was responsible for yuan Ang''s being subdued.


    Everything became clear.


    Yuan Shao let out his breath and roared, "come on


    A servant came in. Seeing Yuan Shao''s angry appearance, he was frightened and saluted carefully.


    Yuan Shao ordered: "pass the order down and mobilize the forbidden army."


    "Here it is


    I''ll send the order immediately.


    Yuan Shao is also wearing a crown dress, wearing a crown, strode out of the palace, quietly waiting. After a short time, the commander of the imperial army came to Yuan Shao and said, "Your Majesty, all the Imperial troops in the army have been assembled."


    Yuan Shao chin said: "go with me to Guo Tu''s residence."


    "Here it is


    When the commander of the imperial army got the order, he immediately gave it.


    Yuan Shao, with the Imperial Army on his way, soon came to Guotu''s residence. Just when the imperial guards were on their way, they startled the royal guards in Yecheng.


    In particular, Yuan Shao personally went out of the palace and took the royal guards to Guotu''s residence. The royal guards, who were secretly watching outside Guotu''s residence, flew away and went to the place where Miao Yong lived to report the news.


    Even if Guo Tu obeyed Zhang Xiu, in fact, Miao Yong was still cautious and specially arranged for people to stare at her. Once Guotu backwater, Miao Yong can respond in the shortest time.


    This is Miao Yong''s way of self-protection.


    Keep an eye on everything.


    When Yuan Shao arrived at the gate of Guo''s house, Yuan Shao waved his big hand, and some soldiers came forward and knocked against the door. A moment later, the gate of Guo''s house was directly knocked open, and the whole door frame collapsed completely.


    The servants in the mansion were supposed to be angry and scolded, but when they saw the forbidden army and Yuan Shao, they were so scared that they knelt down on the ground and did not dare to move again.


    Yuan Shao strode in with both hands on his back.


    When he entered the hall, he sat down and waited quietly.


    After a while, Guo TU was brought.


    Guo Tu is a little confused at the moment. But in his heart, Guo Tu also has some conjectures, thinking that something must be wrong, otherwise Yuan Shao would not bring people to knock the door, or even order the royal guards to arrest him after breaking the door frame.


    It''s all strange.


    Guo Tu met Yuan Shao and said, "minister Guo Tu, meet your majesty."


    "Your Majesty?"


    Yuan Shao seemed to be stimulated. His voice was sharp and shrill, and he exclaimed: "you are not willing to call me your majesty. Your majesty is not Zhang Xiu, and your master is not Zhang Xiu? I have entrusted you with an important task, and I am sincere to you. But in the end, how did you repay me. Here, look at your masterpiece. "


    With that, Yuan Shao waved his hand and threw out the letter written by Guo Tu.


    Guo Tu picked it up, took out the letter, and saw the situation in the letter.


    Obviously, he was exposed.


    Guo Tu''s heart panicked at first, but immediately calmed down. He was also a wise man. He knew his deep situation, and even knew that after he had framed Yuan Xi and Yuan ang successively, he had a hostile relationship with Yuan Shao. It was impossible for both sides to have any more room to ease up. He asked Yuan Shao for mercy, which was a matter of seeking death.


    Yuan Shao can''t forgive him!


    Guo Tu chuckled and said, "I didn''t expect that your Majesty was scheming against me. Specially throw out a deal with Baima Yicong, and then lure me to take the bait. This time, your majesty is so clever


    When Yuan Shao saw Guo Tu''s confident and relaxed manner, he was even more angry. Because Guo TU was like this, he didn''t pay attention to him. Yuan Shao directly stood up, walked up to Guo Tu and kicked out.


    "Pa!"


    But he kicked Guo Tu''s body, Guo Tu just stepped back two steps, did not fall to the ground.


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "you see, yuan Benchu in the past was not only a great hero, but also a great hero. But now yuan Benchu has no strength at all. After you became emperor Yuan Shao, you lingered among the women in the harem all day. How could you deal with government affairs. Your body is empty. Alas, even pitiful. Gentle village, hero grave, so it is"Asshole, asshole!"


    Guo Shao suddenly fell to the ground, but Yuan Shao fell to the ground again.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Guo Tu couldn''t help laughing when he saw it.


    In the laughter, all show disdain.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    This is Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao, the great hero of the past, has long disappeared. He has been defeated by Zhang Xiu for many times in recent years. He has been beaten by Zhang Xiu for many times in recent years. Even after he became emperor, Yuan Shao is no longer the Yuan Shao of the past.


    "Come on, let me catch Guo Tu!"


    Yuan Shao roared his orders.


    With Yuan Shao''s order, the soldiers in the hall immediately went forward and detained Guo Tu from left to right, so that Guo Tu could not move. After standing up, Yuan Shao went directly to Guo Tu''s body. After kicking several feet one after another, he vented his anger. Then he stood aside and said coldly, "Guo Tu, you betrayed me so much. What do you think I should do with you?"


    "Deal with me?"


    Guo Tu sneered in his heart and said, "yuan Benchu, I am also a minister of the state of Qin and an official of the great Qin. As long as you dare to deal with me and kill me. Then, the king of Qin will not be willing to give up. He will certainly mobilize a large army to attack you. Now Cao Cao is beaten to the ground. Cao Cao is not the opponent of the king of Qin. The tiny troops in your hand can not be the opponent of the king of Qin. If you kill me, the king of Qin will surely send troops to attack the state of Jin. "


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see if Zhang Xiu can avenge you for killing you."


    Guo Tu said: "Hanoi county has fought several times, and you Yuan Shao have been defeated many times. You are also defeated in Liangzhou''s plan. You can''t keep under the army of the king of Qin. As long as you kill me, you can''t afford the consequences. "


    This is Guo Tu''s way to save himself.


    By threatening and intimidating Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao could not and did not dare to deal with him.


    As for what Zhang Xiu will do, Guo Tu actually has no bottom, and I don''t know whether Zhang Xiu will send troops to save him, but at this point, Guo Tu can only gamble.


    Yuan Shao stares at Guo Tu, and his killing intention is clear. He wants to kill Guo Tu immediately, but Guo Tu''s words really make Yuan Shao hesitant. In case of killing Guo Tu, Zhang Xiu really kills him. What should he do then?


    Yuan Shao suddenly asked, "Guo Tu, when did you submit to Zhang Xiu?"


    "After the Dajin bank incident."


    Guo Tu did not hide, said: "the collapse of Dajin bank, you chose to slaughter the people, chose to stand on the opposite side of the people. There is no way to save the state of Jin. "


    He didn''t say anything about himself and Miao Yong, only that he was influenced by the slaughter of the people.


    Yuan Shao is five fingers clenched into a fist, extremely angry.


    It was as if he had a pain in his heart.


    It feels so bad.

 Chapter 950

    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice: "only after the Bank of Shanxi did Xi''er lead the troops to the army and Yuan ang escort the grain. Did you tell Zhang Xiu about these two things?"


    "Yes


    Guo Tu answered directly.


    "Dog thing!"


    Yuan Shao couldn''t help his anger and kicked Guo Tu again.


    Guo Tu snorted and did not speak.


    At this point, there is nothing to be afraid of. Anyway, he has no way back.


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "now, tell the people you contacted immediately. I''ll go along with it and deal with all the people who embroidered in Yecheng. I can consider it and spare your life."


    "No need!"


    Guo Tu shook his head and said, "if you want to kill me, I have nothing to say. What''s more, I just arranged for people to send letters to fixed places. I don''t know when the other party will pick up the letters and who will pick up the letters. So you ask me to account, and I don''t know what to account for. "


    As a wise man, Guo Tu knows his own situation. He has betrayed Yuan Shao. Even if Yuan Shao doesn''t kill him, it''s hard for him to go back to the past and come to a good end.


    If you betray Zhang Xiu again, it''s even worse.


    Therefore, Guo Tu can only stick to it.


    He can only choose one side.


    Guo Tu''s face was very firm, and he continued: "Yuan Shao, it''s so far. You can kill it if you want. Of course, if you kill me, you may be attacked by Daqin. Now with your strength, I''m afraid you can''t stop the Qin army''s attack. "


    After that, Guo Tu chuckled.


    The laughter is even more ironic.


    Making Yuan Shao more angry, Yuan Shao wanted to kill, but after all, Yuan Shao restrained his intention to kill, and said in a deep voice: "when I catch the thief of Yecheng, I will deal with you again. Come on, put Guo Tu in prison, 12 hours a day, and supervise him at any time


    "Here it is


    The commander of the imperial army was ordered to take Guo Tu away immediately.


    In addition, Guo Tu''s family members were also taken away. After all, even if they were Guo Tu''s family members, they were the culprits and could not be spared easily.


    After Yuan Shao returned to the imperial palace with the imperial guards, he immediately arranged for someone to call the Jushi and the judge. He looked at them and said in a deep voice, "just now, I arrested Guo Tu and put him in prison."


    "When Guo Tu got the news that Liu Wen was about to send troops, he quickly wrote a letter to Zhang Xiu''s people. Guo Tu, this man, is really damned. "


    "Now I''ve put Guo Tu in prison, and I''ve arranged for soldiers in the army to guard for 12 hours to prevent anyone from breaking the prison. Especially when Guo TU was arrested, he was still unrepentant and clamored that if he was dealt with, Zhang Xiu would send troops to attack Dajin and avenge him. "


    Yuan Shao said angrily, "tell me what to do with Guo Tu."


    At this moment, Yuan Shao has no light on his face.


    Yuan Shao was born in a famous family, but he didn''t expect that people loyal to him chose to betray him.


    It''s a shame.


    This is an unbearable shame for Yuan Shao.


    When he heard that, he sighed. When he went out of the palace with Guo Tu and his wife, he felt strange and suspicious when he heard Guo Tu''s words.


    Unexpectedly, it''s Guo Tu!


    This is Yuan Shao''s most trusted confidant, but now, he has betrayed Yuan Shao.


    The judge''s face was cold, and he said: "Your Majesty, Guo Tu betrays. There''s nothing to hesitate about. In my opinion, it is necessary to punish and kill the chickens to warn other lucky people of the consequences of betrayal. Therefore, I believe that not only Guo Tu should be executed, but also capital punishment should be imposed, at least five horses should be separated. "


    It is not shameful to judge those who betray.


    Especially for Guo Tu, there is no good face and no good impression. If Guo Tu had not been the governor of Dajin bank, he would not have collapsed, let alone affected the whole of Dajin.


    Yuan Shao said, "juqing, what do you think?"


    Ju zhengse said: "Your Majesty, I agree with your suggestion. If we don''t deal with those who betray us, it will certainly lead to great turbulence in the end, and even lead to the submission of countless people to Zhang Xiu in Jin Dynasty. "


    "Guo Tu, he must be executed."


    "However, he suggested that Guo Tu''s accusation should be made public, and that a month later, Guo Tu would be executed in the south of Yecheng. So, let''s see how Zhang Xiu responds. "


    "On the one hand, it''s a deterrent to people in China," he said. On the other hand, it''s also to beat Zhang Xiu to let him know that it''s hard for him to be elegant with such a small skill of plotting against him. "


    After thinking about it, Yuan Shao said, "juqing, if Zhang Xiu really mobilizes the army to fight us?"


    He said: "Your Majesty, if you really get to this step, you can only fight a battle. There is no room for escape, and there is no room for escape. If your majesty is afraid of Zhang Xiu and does not dare to kill Guo Tu, then the situation in China will be fierce. At that time, the whole state of Jin will be in turmoil. "The judge also agreed: "Your Majesty, I also agree with the suggestion of Lord Ju."


    Yuan Shao was puzzled.


    His heart is really some fear of Zhang Xiu, after all, in the hands of Zhang Xiu eat shriveled.


    However, at this time, he also felt that Ju''s words were quite reasonable, so after hearing this, Yuan Shao didn''t object to it, so he said, "Ju Qing, you can arrange Guo Tu''s affairs."


    "Here it is


    You should bow your hand.


    "Step back!"


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and told him that his spirit was even more dispirited. All the time, yuan shaodu is very confident in himself, not only because he is from a famous family, but also because he thinks that he is outstanding in strength and wise. But now, he suddenly finds out that when he and Zhang Xiu confront each other, even his own advisers are rebelled, but he doesn''t realize it.


    This made him a little disappointed!


    After walking out of the hall, the judge looked at him and said, "Lord Ju, I''m afraid there will be countless variables in the execution of Guo Tu in a month. I''m afraid it''s not a good month! Zhang Xiu, in particular, will definitely make some moves. If you openly want to execute Guo Tu in a month''s time, Zhang Xiu is bound to make some moves. "


    Ju zhengse said: "the judge, up to now, is to see what action Zhang Xiu has. At that time, we''ll see how your majesty decides. As your majesty said before, if Zhang Xiu wants to threaten war, it can only be the first World War. Otherwise, because of Zhang Xiu''s threat, your majesty will hand over Guo tu. who will put your Majesty in his eyes? "


    "Alas..."


    Hearing this, the judge sighed.


    He arched his hand at the door, then turned to deal with the matter in his hands.


    The situation became more and more difficult.


    There is also a feeling of being unable to match.


    Jushi went back to his office and quickly arranged for the people in the Yamen to spread the news. After arranging all kinds of things, he came to the prison and saw Guo Tu inside.


    Today, inside and outside the prison, there are soldiers stationed.


    To ensure that Guo TU will not be robbed.


    When he saw Guo Tu, he said in a deep voice, "Guo Tu, why are you doing this? Although he has a bright future, he has to work for the tiger and for Zhang Xiu. "


    Guo Tu said with a smile: "Mr. Ju, do you ask yourself that Yuan Shao is the king of Ming Dynasty? With people like Yuan Shao, there is no future. It''s true that I didn''t do well enough in Dajin bank. I didn''t stick to the bottom line, and even I didn''t stick to myself. However, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shang and his son continued to misappropriate the money of Dajin bank, and finally slaughtered the people. What is this. Since ancient times, there has been nothing like this


    Jushou frowned. In his heart, he didn''t agree with it, but it happened in the end. So Jushou didn''t say much, he could only make up for it.

 Chapter 951

    Guo Tu said: "in the first battle of Dongjun, Cao Cao''s more than 80000 troops were completely destroyed, leaving less than 10000 people to flee to Taishan County; in the first battle of Yingchuan, Cao Ren was defeated, and Cheng Yu and others gave up the evacuation of the emperor. The whole state of Cao Wei is already declining, and the sun is falling, and it is no longer the glory of the past. "


    "It is foreseeable that Cao Cao will be defeated."


    "In particular, Zhang Xiu''s strength is getting stronger and stronger, and Cao Cao''s strength is getting weaker and weaker. Cao Cao can not stick to it for a long time."


    Guo Tu continued: "when it comes to the state of Jin, it used to be very powerful. Civil servants include Xu you, Tian Feng, Feng Ji, you, me, and Shen Pei. Military generals include Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang Yan, Gao Lan, Ju Yi, and Chun Yu Qiong. But now? How many people are left


    "The talent withers, but the master is dazzled."


    "This is far worse than Cao Cao."


    "In my opinion, the reason why Zhang Xiu dares to attack Cao Cao with all her strength is that she has a good eye on Yuan Shao and does not dare to send troops. If Yuan Shao had rushed to help Cao Cao early in the morning, that would not have been the case. "


    Guo Tu said, "ah, you are a man of great talent. Now you are like a mender, mending and mending the leaky Dajin. Look at your good friend Tian Feng, who is now the president of the inspection court of the state of Qin. He is in charge of the inspection court with great power and fortune. It''s really a pity! "


    He frowned.


    Many of Guo Tu''s words today are treacherous, but after careful consideration, there are also some reasons.


    Once Yuan Shao''s strength was the best in the world.


    I don''t know how, it has become like this. It has become the dominant family of Zhang Xiu.


    "This is not the reason why you betray your majesty," he said


    Guo Tu said: "what''s the reason? If there''s no reason, good birds choose trees to live, and good officials choose their masters to do things. Yuan Shao is so stupid and incompetent that it''s hard to succeed. Do I have to die for Yuan Shao?"


    After a pause, Guo Tu continued: "Mr. Ju, I don''t want to talk much nonsense. Now, are you coming to give me a ride? Ha ha, I didn''t expect that I would die in Yecheng in the end. "


    Guo Tu had threatened Yuan Shao before.


    If only Yuan Shao, he is likely to succeed and survive.


    After all, Yuan Shao didn''t kill him on the spot.


    However, after Yuan Shao''s discussion with Ju Shi and Shi Pei, it was not necessary. After all, Ju Shi and Shi Pei were all wise men. They could understand the consequences of his release, which was almost enough to destroy the spiritual support of all the people in the whole Jin Dynasty.


    Therefore, as long as there are teachers and judges, he is almost certain to die.


    Ju Shou stared at Guo Tu and said, "under the current situation, our great Jin has been at a disadvantage, and it is almost very difficult for the state of Qin. If things go on like this, I will be defeated. Under normal circumstances, I really should suggest your majesty to execute you immediately, so as to frighten the chickens and the monkeys. However, I made adjustments, and I gambled on the national fortune of Da Jin. "


    Guo Tu''s eyes narrowed, and he examined Jushi. At this moment, Jushi''s eyes flashed a crazy look.


    This surprised Guo Tu.


    Is this the first time?


    Kuo Tu''s understanding of Juzhi has always been extremely steady and smooth, and there will be no overstepping. But today''s Guo Tu gives him a different impression, as if he were someone else.


    Guo Tu said, "what did you gamble on?"


    He said in a deep voice, "I suggest that your majesty announce the news of your surrender to Zhang Xiu, and then one month later, execute you in front of everyone and separate you."


    "When you were captured by your majesty, she said that Zhang Xiu would not give up on you. If she wanted to deal with you, Zhang Xiu would even send troops to attack Dajin to avenge you."


    "If I kill you directly, Zhang Xiu can''t send troops."


    "But now, you''ve come back to Zhang Xiu and worked for her. Now that you have been caught and become a prisoner, if Zhang Xiu sits back and ignores the news, who is willing to serve him, who is willing to drive him, and even who is willing to turn his back on the old master? "


    "Therefore, I deliberately forced Zhang Xiu to bring troops to Yecheng."


    Ju Shi''s eyes were shining with a crazy look, and he continued: "once Zhang Xiu comes and sets up troops at the border, I will suggest your majesty to decapitate you in order to uphold the power of the country. At the same time, it is also a declaration of war on Zhang Xiu, forcing his majesty to give up completely the idea of maintaining non aggression with Zhang Xiu, and we should go all out to fight against Zhang Xiu. Only in this way can we make Da Jin stand firm in the days to come. "


    "That''s my calculation!"


    "That''s my bet, too."


    He said in a deep voice: "so I bet on the fate of the country. Once your majesty really chooses to force Zhang Xiu to release people, then the Jin Dynasty will almost die."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Guo Tu couldn''t help laughing when he heard it.


    "Ju said:" you laugh because you think your majesty will be defeated. Do you think your majesty will be subdued? "


    "Yes


    Guo Tu said: "Mr. Ju, you and I have been following Yuan Shao for many years. We all know Yuan Shao. People like Yuan Shao can''t really fight Zhang Xiu. ""If you want to force Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu to fight, the final result is to speed up the collapse of Jin Dynasty."


    "You will be defeated this time."


    "Lord Ju, I have to thank you for saving your life. Because of your gambling, I can survive. If you didn''t put all your eggs in one basket, I''m afraid that if you give me a little advice, I''m sure it will be over. "


    Guo Tu''s face was full of smiles.


    Ju zhengse said: "life and death have life and wealth in heaven, but this time, I want to gamble. If I win the bet, I will be able to compete with Zhang Xiu and even stand up. If you lose the bet, you''re going to lose anyway. It doesn''t make any difference to be earlier or later. "


    "I''ll wait and see," Guo said


    "Wait and see!"


    After that, he stood up and strode away. In fact, this is to force Yuan Shao to make a decision, to force Yuan Shao not to continue to sink, to make yuan Shaozhen work, not to continue to indulge in wine and sex.


    But Guo Tu''s news, in a short time, already thoroughly spread. In the streets of Yecheng, there are countless people talking about Guo Tu''s obedience to Zhang Xiu and his rebellion against Yuan Shao.


    After all, Guo TU was a high-ranking official and a trusted confidant of Yuan Shao. Even Guo Tu worked for Zhang Xiu. You can imagine how appalling this was.


    Miao Yong also got the news at the first time.


    He thought in his heart.


    While Miao was thinking, Su Hong came. Today, Su Hong still stays with Yuan Shang. Although Su Hong borrowed a lot of money from Dajin bank before, after the collapse of Dajin bank, he did not recover the debt. Therefore, the money Su Hong borrowed has become Su Hong''s own. He still follows left and right as Yuan Shang''s guard and can get a lot of news.


    When Su Hong saw Miao Yong, he said, "Miao tou, there''s something about Guo Tu going on outside. Guo Tu is now in prison. According to Yuan Shang, he is heavily guarded and can''t bring people out. What do you say about Guo Tu? "


    Miao zhengse said: "it''s not something we can deal with. If we can save Guo Tu, we must report to the police. But now, there are countless soldiers on guard, unable to take people away. Therefore, I will report this matter immediately to your majesty for decision. "


    "That''s all we can do."


    Su Hong thought about it and agreed with Miao Yong that they could only report the news.


    After discussing with each other, they said all kinds of things about Su Hong and all kinds of coping strategies. They asked the rest of the royal guards to be careful. Then Su Hong left.

 Chapter 952

    In late June, Zhao Yun escorted 3000 war horses, 100000 stone grain, and many armor and weapons back to Xudu, put all the war horses and grain into storage, and then came to the palace to meet Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhao Yun saw Zhang Xiu, he held his fist and saluted: "finally, General Zhao Yun, meet your highness."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "younger martial brother, you did a good job on this trip to Taishan county. Although there were only three thousand white horses, Yuan Shao didn''t dare to act rashly because of your high-profile evacuation and secretly letting me take over. This time, it''s beautiful. "


    Zhao Yun said, "Your Highness, I praise you


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down and have a rest. You''ve worked hard all the way."


    "Here it is


    Without much delay, Zhao Yun turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu continued to check the news recently sent back. Now the troops under Huang Zhong, Zhang Ya and others have been sweeping all the counties in Yanzhou. The troops have begun to gather in Taishan county to prepare for the attack on Cao Cao.


    Zhang Xiu is going to kill Cao Cao in one go.


    If Cao Cao is eliminated, Yuan Shao and sun CE will be completely separated. If he wants to destroy sun CE, Yuan Shao can''t help sun CE, and if he wants to destroy Yuan Shao, sun CE can''t affect the situation in the north.


    So killing Cao Cao is the most crucial step.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the study.


    Immediately, Wang Yue entered the study, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Highness, I just received a message about Guo Tu. Now Guo Tu has been exposed and detained by Yuan Shao. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rise, slightly unexpected.


    Guo TU was exposed.


    At this time, Wang Yue handed a letter about Guo Tu to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu takes it over and carefully reads the news of Miao Yong''s return. When he sees that Guo Tu is in the first battle a month later, he also sees Yuan Shao''s wantonly propaganda that Guo Tu betrays him and wants to put him to death by dismembering him, his mind turns.


    This seems to be aimed at Guo Tu.


    In fact, it was aimed at him.


    Guo Tu, who has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, is a person of Zhang Xiu. Under the premise that Guo Tu is subordinate to Zhang Xiu, Guo Tu is now in danger. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t care, it will have an impact on the whole Qin official system under Zhang Xiu.


    His subordinates are dying, but Zhang Xiu doesn''t care. Who is willing to work for Zhang Xiu?


    This is a very important issue.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "come, call Sima Yi, Pang Tong, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Zhang song to discuss the matter."


    These people are now gathered in Xudu.


    Zhang Xiu is also around the think tank.


    Not long after, the five gathered, bowed to Zhang Xiu, and then took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the bush. She said that Guo TU was arrested and would be dismembered by Yuan Shao a month later. Finally, Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your opinion on Guo Tu''s murder? What do you think the king should do


    Zhang Song solemnly said, "Your Highness, I think it''s right to rescue."


    Guo TU was subordinate to Zhang Xiu. Although he never worked in Chang''an or came to Zhang Xiu, he was subordinate to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Song himself, and Guo Tu''s situation is not far away, there is not much difference, he is also halfway to surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    If now, Zhang Xiu does not care about Guo Tu.


    When he was young, he could not care about Zhang Song''s life or death, because like Guo Tu, he was half obedient.


    This is Zhang Song''s starting point.


    Zhang Song continued: "Your Highness, if you don''t care about Guo Tu''s life or death, it will certainly affect the cohesion of the whole Daqin officials and make many officials feel cold. So I think that no matter what, we must rescue Guo Tu. The Royal Highness''s royal guards in Yecheng are numerous and powerful. So I suggest that the royal guards of Yecheng be mobilized to rescue Guo Tu. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not make a comment, but looked at the rest.


    He wants to hear from the rest.


    This time, Sima Yi agreed with Zhang Song''s arrangement and said, "Your Highness, I also agree with Zhang Song''s analysis. Under the current premise, Guo Tu must be rescued. "


    "As long as Guo Tu arrived safely in the territory of Daqin, countless scholars in the world would take Daqin as their goal. In particular, the officials of Daqin will take pride in being officials of Daqin. "


    "Because no matter where they are, no matter how dangerous and difficult they are, their highness will support them and help them."


    "So I think that under the current situation, we must dispatch the royal guards to rescue Guo Tu."


    Sima Yi said: "before, the royal guards had taken Tian Feng''s and Zhang Ya''s family members away. Even if it would be more difficult this time, even Yuan Shao had already set up a net to wait, but no matter what, they had to be rescued."


    When Zhang Song heard this, he began to laugh.


    Rare!


    This time, Sima Yi did not accept him, and he reached the same opinion.Pang Tong also said: "Your Highness, I also agree with the rescue. However, the way of rescue is still open to discussion. Because Yuan Shao clearly said that the execution of Guo Tu a month later must have laid a net. So, we have to think about the way of rescue


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly, but still did not make a statement.


    Because these plans are not comprehensive enough.


    Most people can think of what Sima Yi or Zhang Song mentioned. Such a simple plan is not difficult. As long as people have a little wisdom and foresight, they will make judgments.


    After thinking about it for a long time, Jia Xu said: "Your Highness, I also agree with the rescue, because if you don''t save Guo Tu this time, it means your highness abandons his officials and the people who serve you. Therefore, it is necessary to rescue. However, there are different opinions on the way to rescue Guo Tu. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what''s Wenhe''s opinion?"


    Zhang Song''s brow rose when he heard it.


    There was a sigh in his heart.


    Because he followed Zhang Xiu for a period of time, and roughly understood Zhang Xiu''s temperament. If the scheme and point of view described can not meet the requirements of Zhang Xiu, or Zhang Xiu is not very satisfied, then Zhang Xiu will not express her opinions, just nodding.


    Only when Zhang Xiu has some praise, Zhang Xiu will ask questions.


    This is the key.


    But when he put forward his suggestion, Zhang Xiu just nodded. Now as soon as Jia Xu spoke, Zhang Xiu became interested and asked actively, obviously expecting Jia Xu''s plan.


    Jia Xu''s deep eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "I think it''s not suitable to mobilize the royal guards to rescue Guo Tu this time. There are two main reasons."


    "First, Yuan Shao said plainly that Guo Tu would be executed a month later."


    "Obviously, it''s an ambush."


    "Yuan Shao must have arranged countless dangerous situations and even countless means around Guo Tu, just waiting for the royal guards to fall into the trap and people to die. Under this premise, to let the royal guards go is to let the royal guards die. "


    "Royal guards, no influence."


    "Even if your Highness has arranged the rescue of the royal guards, who would believe it? Unless it''s a rescue, it''s a compliment. But in case of failure, it means that your Highness has not arranged for people to go to the rescue. "


    Jia Xu said: "so when Guo Tu is in danger, even if he has to be rescued, he will go to the rescue with integrity, not by secret means. To do so, whether successful or unsuccessful, is to tell the world that your highness values every official of the Qin Dynasty. Whether in or out of the territory of the state of Qin, they are the people his highness relies on. Only in this way can people in the world be convinced. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "what Wenhe said is true."


    For Zhang Xiu, we must take this opportunity to stabilize the people. If the people''s heart is broken, the state of Qin will not be strong for long, even if it is strong for the time being. If the people of the state of Qin are united, even if the state of Qin is at a disadvantage in a short period of time, it can be reversed. This is the reason why people and land exist.

 Chapter 953

    Jia Xu continued: "in order to show his Highness''s attention to talents and his reliance on Qin officials, the best way is for his highness to issue a notice, count Yuan Shao''s criminal evidence, and then order Yuan Shao to release Guo Tu, otherwise his highness will send troops to attack Da Jin."


    After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "it''s not only the words on hand. Besides, his highness wants to mobilize his army to go north to dangyin County, to attack the state of Jin, and even, if necessary, to fight with Yuan Shao."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was thinking.


    The main goal of the moment is Cao Cao. Once Cao Cao is destroyed, then Zhang Xiu''s capture of the world is just around the corner.


    But now, all of a sudden, there is Guo Tu''s story.


    Guo Tu''s business is also very important.


    There are different scales between the two.


    Zhang Song said in a deep voice: "Jia Shangshu, according to you, it means that we will not attack Cao Cao for the time being. It is clear that we have reached the critical time to wipe out Cao Cao, but now we withdraw our troops. Does it not mean that we have given Cao Cao a buffer and let him come over? Is this an appropriate arrangement? "


    Although Zhang Song agrees with the rescue of Guo Tu.


    However, to give up the best chance to exterminate Cao Cao, Zhang Song thought it was not right.


    Jia Xu said: "naturally, it''s appropriate, because if we don''t attack Cao Cao now, we can attack again next year or even the year after next. In a word, as long as your highness is powerful, it will be sooner or later that you want to destroy Cao Cao. "


    "If we give up Guo Tu now, no matter whether he is alive or dead, the consequences of Guo Tu''s death will still exist one year later, two years later, or even several years later, which will become the stain of his highness and make the world''s scholars and talents feel cold. So I think we have to send troops. Even if today''s practice gives Cao Cao a buffer, he must do so. "


    Li Ru echoed: "Your Highness, I agree with Jia Shangshu''s analysis. Since Guo Tu has surrendered to his highness and made contributions to his highness, such a person can''t ignore it. Otherwise, Yuan Shao will win the game. "


    Sima Yi also changed her tone and said, "Your Highness, I agree with what Jia Shangshu said."


    Pang Tong also said, "I''m inferior to you!"


    For a moment, all the people except Zhang Song supported Jia Xu''s suggestion and agreed with Jia Xu''s analysis.


    Zhang songdun was embarrassed.


    At the beginning, his proposal was not supported any more.


    No one recognized him any more.


    Zhang Xiu is not indecisive. He also has his own consideration in his heart. After carefully pondering Jia Xu''s words, he nodded and said, "Wenhe''s really the best choice."


    "For a country, it''s not how much territory it occupies or how powerful it is at one time, but how cohesive the people under its command are."


    "As long as people''s hearts are still there, then the country will have cohesion and combat effectiveness. If the country is strong for a short time, but the hearts of the people are broken, then the strong country is just a period of strength, sooner or later it will fall apart. "


    "When people are united, Mount Tai will move."


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as the people are united, even if the people are like water, they can open mountains and split mountains."


    Jia Xu said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Li Ru also said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Zhang Song and others also agree with each other, but Zhang Song sighs in his heart. He plans with all his heart, but how can he not know Zhang Xiu''s idea every time?


    So much so that it''s wrong every time.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come and call Huang Zhong, Zhang Yan, a Guli, Chen Dao, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and Gan Ning."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    These are all the troops gathered in the territory of Wei. It can be said that Zhang Xiu''s attack on Cao Cao this time, except Zhang Ren''s army and Gao Lan''s army, almost all the other troops under her command were dispatched to battle.


    It''s just right to defeat Cao Cao.


    After a short time, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Zhang Ya and others all arrived and saluted Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu asked the people to sit down and briefly talked about Guo Tu''s affairs. Then she said, "Zhang Ya, a Guli and Zhang Yan''s troops stay in Yanzhou and Yuzhou to stabilize the area they are seizing. Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning lead their respective troops to dangyin county with the king, preparing to attack Yuan Shao."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Whether they are left behind or going north with Zhang Xiu, they all have a heavy responsibility.


    Although there may be war going northward, Cao Cao may have retreated to Taishan County, but now Zhang Xiu retreats, so Cao Cao may not shrink and will probably take a counter attack.


    "Your Highness, there is a problem with your humble position," he said


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu said.


    Zhang said: "Your Highness has mobilized the main troops to go north to prepare for war with Yuan Shao. However, he believed that in addition to leaving the last general to be stationed in Yanzhou, he should also leave a military adviser who can give advice. Otherwise, in the event of war, I''m afraid that it will be difficult to judge the situation in time. "Zhang Xiu thought about it, looked at Jia Xu and others, and said, "who among you is willing to stay?"


    Jia Xu took the initiative to say: "Your Highness, I''m old and I''m not very well. Therefore, the old minister asked himself to stay in Xudu. On the one hand, he was helping General Zhang, on the other hand, he was too lazy to travel long distances. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s good to have Wen and stay in Xudu. I can rest assured."


    Jia Xu said, "I will live up to your Highness''s high expectations."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, he said, "let''s go down and get ready. Tomorrow morning, we''ll go north. As for the announcement, it was Zhong Da who ordered Cao Cao to release Guo Tu. You should write an appeal immediately and make an announcement. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded.


    The rest of the people did not stay any longer and went to prepare separately.


    For most of the day, Sima Yi had already written the address, and then asked Zhang Xiu to review it. After that, he had arranged for the royal guards to spread it all over the world, so that the news could spread quickly.


    This news first spread to Taishan County, and Cao Cao was the first to get the news.


    Cao Cao was relieved when he got the news that Zhang Xiu had transferred troops to the north. It was because Zhang Xiu had attacked Yanzhou and had captured most of the territory of Yanzhou recently. Cao Cao was very anxious because he did not have the strength to counterattack.


    Now, it''s just slowing down a little.


    Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, but he also immediately called Guo Jia.


    Cao Cao said about Zhang Xiu''s going north to Jizhou, and said with emotion: "I didn''t expect that people like Guo Tu had surrendered to Zhang Xiu early and had planned for her. It was Guo Tu who made Zhang Xiu go north. Fengxiao, now that Zhang Xiu is going north, whether we should take action to take back the lost territory. "


    "No!"


    Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiu is indeed going north, but now Zhang Xiu has left an army guard. Under such a premise, can our only remaining forces defeat these forces? "


    "The most important thing is that food and money are still a little tight this year."


    "What your highness needs to do now is to recover his troops as soon as possible. The total number of troops we have raised now is more than 60000. Relying on more than 60000 people, it is quite difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu''s troops. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "of course, we don''t really stop sending troops. It depends on the situation."


    "If Zhang Xiu was crushed in Jizhou, he would lose a lot of money, but he could not recapture Guo Tu, and he would go to war with Yuan Shao, even with Yuan Shao, which would damage the army."


    "Then, we will take advantage of the fire and decisively send troops to recapture the lost territory of Yanzhou and Yuzhou."


    Guo Jia continued: "if everything goes well with Zhang Xiu, then we can''t take advantage of her edge right now. We should avoid it for a while. In any case, we should first seek survival and then consider the rest of the development issues. "


    Cao Cao thought about it and said, "it''s the same truth. No matter what, first let''s show our strength."


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness is wise!"

 Chapter 954

    The news of Zhang Xiu''s army going north is spreading rapidly and continuously. Finally, it is spread all over Yecheng by Miao Yong. People in the streets are talking about Zhang Xiu''s going north and Guo Tu''s betrayal.


    Although many people are not ashamed of Guo Tu''s betrayal of Yuan Shao.


    But now that Guo Tu has turned over to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu relies on him. Even Zhang Xiu himself issues an address to order Yuan Shao to hand over Guo Tu and lead soldiers to kill him. In this case, countless people are talking about Zhang Xiu''s going north.


    I also got the news.


    Instead of reporting to Yuan Shao immediately, he went straight to the cell.


    Ju Shu came to the cell and saw Guo Tu. Today''s Guo Tu, is still elegant, never because in prison, there is nothing decadent depression.


    Because Guo Tu believed that Zhang Xiu would come to save him.


    It''s not how important he is to Zhang Xiu, nor how meritorious he has made for her. It''s because he represents a group of officials who work for her.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t save him, he will lose his heart.


    This is the key.


    So Guo TU was not worried at all. When Guo Tu saw Jushou, he said with a smile, "Mr. Ju, are you coming to see me now? Has your highness sent troops to the north and started ordering yuan Shaofang to release people?"


    "It is!"


    He said, "Your Majesty has been released. Not only that, Zhang Xiu also threatened that once your majesty did not release you, he would go to war with Dajin. Zhang Xiu has mobilized a large army and is rushing to dangyin County, ready to garrison troops at the border, which may set off a war at any time. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Guo Tu laughed and said, "Lord Ju, this time, you are going to lose. You want to gamble on the national fortune of Jin Dynasty, but now, you are sure to fail. Your Highness has sent troops. You want Yuan Shao to fight to death, but in fact, when it comes to the end, Yuan Shao will probably be counselled and dare not fight with his highness. "


    Ju zhengse said: "before it''s time, we may not know. Zhang Xiufa''s troops are coming, which I expected. In the same way, I believe your majesty will not let me down. "


    Guo Tu said: "you have said that before, it''s gambling on the national fortune. Since it''s gambling, Yuan Shao may disappoint you. I don''t have to worry about it now


    Ju said: "not necessarily, as long as your majesty is determined to fight Zhang Xiu. Then your majesty will execute you. "


    "I have confidence," Guo said


    "Kuo Tu, let''s wait and see," he said with a sharp look in his eyes


    He stood up, turned and left.


    Next, he should report the news to Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao can make a decision.


    After he left the cell, he went straight to the palace, but when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw that the judge had arrived first. The professor Ju had a smile on his face and said with a smile, "Mr. judge, do you want to go to the palace to see your majesty?"


    "Yes, but I''ll wait for you, too."


    The judge spoke solemnly and solemnly.


    Ju said, "Lord Shen is waiting for me at the gate of the palace. I don''t know what''s the matter."


    The judge replied, "I just got the news that Zhang Xiu declared war. Lord Ju, this situation is what you are trying to build. If you want to enter the palace now, you are imploring your majesty to fight against Zhang Xiu, right? "


    "Yes


    If you don''t think about it, just answer it.


    That''s what he''s looking forward to.


    Instead of letting Yuan Shao go down all the time, it''s better to put all your eggs in one basket and let Yuan Shao have no way back. In this way, Yuan Shao could only choose to fight Zhang Xiu.


    "But what if your majesty doesn''t want to fight and is ready to surrender?" she said


    After hearing this, he gave a sad smile and said, "what you mentioned is the last thing I want to see. But if that''s the case, there''s no way. "


    "I have a way to ensure that your majesty will have to fight with Zhang Xiu," she said


    He said, "please teach me!"


    The judge replied, "it''s very simple. You immediately arrange people to make Guo Tu commit suicide. After killing Guo Tu, he forges Cheng Guo Tu to commit suicide. At this point in the matter, Zhang Xiu has sent troops to kill, and Guo Tu is dead. Then, your majesty, even if you want to explain, you can''t explain. Unless your majesty wants to surrender to Zhang Xiu. Therefore, a war between the two sides will be inevitable. In this way, your Majesty''s back road will be completely blocked, and there will be no room for turning back. "


    "No!"


    Ju Shou shook his head and said, "a gentleman has something to do, something not to do. To be sure, I hope your majesty will cheer up, but I will not take such measures. What I hope is that your majesty will cheer up from the bottom of his heart and not cheat you like this. "


    "You..."


    The judge shook his head and sighed, and said, "as an assistant minister of a great nation, you are the most trusted person of your majesty. Up to now, there is still a gentleman''s style and such naive fantasy. It''s really disappointing. Mr. Ju, you should know that as an assistant minister of a country, you should act with no scruples. ""Others are others, and I''m Ju Shou. I''ll never regret my choice," he said. Therefore, under the current circumstances, I can''t kill Guo Tu first and then force his majesty to do so. If your majesty wants to fight, I will fight to the end with you. If your majesty is scared to death by Zhang Xiu and wants to release Guo Tu, it''s also my life. I should follow your majesty and finish the last journey of Jin Dynasty. "


    "Well, let''s go and enter the palace!"


    After listening to the teacher''s words, the judge will not speak more.


    Since all the teachers have their own ideas, it is useless for him to persuade them.


    Jushi and Shenpei went to the palace together. He looked at the Shenpei and said, "Shenda is also your Majesty''s powerful assistant minister and an important Minister of Jin Dynasty. Now that you have an idea, why don''t you run it yourself? "


    "I can think of this method, but I may not be able to do it," he said. Just like you, you don''t want to do it, and so do I, and I don''t want to do it. "


    He chuckled and shook his head.


    They went into the palace together. Soon after, they entered the main hall and met Yuan Shao, who was dealing with government affairs.


    During this period, Yuan Shao was quite diligent.


    After all, the state of Jin is in turmoil.


    In the current situation, if we don''t work hard, the state of Jin will collapse. Yuan Shao, as the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, especially the others, was the founding emperor after all.


    Yuan Shaojian Jushou and the judge came together and asked, "what''s the important thing for you two to enter together?"


    Jushi immediately said: "report to your majesty, Zhang Xiu has action."


    Yuan shaodao: "what action?"


    Ju Shi replied: "Zhang Xiu ordered his majesty to release Guo Tu without charge. Otherwise, we will attack the state of Jin. Now Zhang Xiu is leading the army to dangyin County, Hanoi Prefecture. It is expected that it will soon arrive in dangyin county and settle down on the border between Shanxi and China. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed greatly.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu.


    After Yuan Shao guldong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his face became extremely solemn, with a touch of fear and uneasiness. He said in a deep voice: "juqing, what else can Zhang Xiu do when he leads the soldiers to the border?"


    Ju Shi replied, "I will report back to your majesty, Zhang Xiufa will attack your majesty, count your Majesty''s criminal evidence, and then order your majesty to release people. Now the news has spread all over the world. "


    "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu''s action is intended to suppress your majesty."


    "Now that the situation is at this stage, there is no room to turn around. Please kill Guo Tu and fight Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu''s words intimidate his majesty. His majesty doesn''t have to pay any attention to Zhang Xiu for such behavior. "


    "Even though the great Jin State has suffered losses, there is enough money and food behind the foundation of the great Jin State, and now the army has fighting capacity, which is enough for the first World War."


    He spoke with great enthusiasm, but Yuan Shao''s heart was extremely flustered. Because in the current situation, Yuan Shao has no intention of going to war with Zhang Xiu.


    His son Yuan Xi is still in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    His counselor Fengji is also in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao was disadvantageous to the war between Zhen and Zhang Xiu.


    Moreover, Yuan Shao was also afraid of Zhang Xiu and thought that Zhang Xiu''s fighting power was too strong. So Yuan Shao thought about it and said, "juqing, we have no chance of winning the war with Zhang Xiu. Is it worth fighting?"

 Chapter 955

    As soon as he heard Yuan Shao''s words, his heart sank. He supported Yuan Shao''s idea and was still afraid of the first World War, which was exactly what he wanted to oppose.


    Ju zhengse said: "Your Majesty, when it comes to national strength, although we are slightly weaker than the state of Qin. However, a thorough study of the power of the state of Jin and a direct war with Zhang Xiu are not afraid of Zhang Xiu. Being great is the result of losing both sides. "


    After a pause, he continued: "even if Zhang Xiu wins, it is impossible to destroy Jin. As long as Daqin is seriously damaged, Jin will be safe in the next few years. This is a temporary gain and loss, earning peace for more than ten years or even decades. Your majesty, please think twice. "


    Yuan Shao said, "do you think it''s necessary to fight first?"


    "Yes, there must be war."


    Jushou nodded solemnly and said: "Zhang Xiu wants to fight, and Jin will accompany her to the end. Your highness, once Guo Tu is released, how do you treat your majesty? So please, your majesty, fight with all your strength. "


    Yuan Shao said, "what do you think of the match?"


    The judge said: "Your Majesty, in the current situation, the humble position also agrees with the first World War. If your majesty does not go to war, the final result will be no less than the collapse of Dajin bank. "


    Yuan Shao thought in his heart.


    It was difficult for him to make a decision. Even if he knew the consequences of releasing Guo Tu, the consequences of the war with Zhang Xiu might not be affordable to the state of Jin.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "you''re going to step down for a while. I''ll think about it."


    "Here it is


    The judges and judges retired together.


    Neither of them was forced.


    In the current situation, it''s useless to force Yuan Shao to give Ju and judge, but only to let Yuan Shao think about it for the time being.


    Yuan Shao thought for a long time and said, "come and call the prince."


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    When Yuan Shang entered the hall and saluted Yuan Shao, he said, "I don''t know what happened when my father and Emperor summoned him."


    Yuan Shao said: "now, Zhang Xiu has mobilized a large army to dangyin county to fight against Jin. Unless Guo Tu is released, Zhang Xiu will attack Jin. "


    "Ah


    Yuan Shang heard a cry of surprise.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is not easy to deal with. Now Zhang Xiu''s killing means that the state of Jin is in danger.


    Yuan Shangshen took a breath, suppressed his inner impatience and panic, and said: "father Huang, now all the troops of Zhang Xiu are going to the state of Wei, aren''t they? Why, all of a sudden, Zhang Xiu turned to fight us. "


    Yuan Shao said, "son of a bitch, don''t you know about Guo Tu? Guo Tu is a member of Zhang Xiu''s family. Now he''s subordinate to Zhang Xiu. We''re going to go to Guo Tu, so Zhang Xiu''s army is here. "


    Yuan shangnian is eager to think.


    Yuan Shao asked, "you are the prince of the great Jin State. What should you do now?"


    Yuan Shangchen said in a voice: "my father and son think that once we fight against Zhang Xiu, we will go all out to fight. Even if we can stop Zhang Xiu''s army, it will be a heavy blow to Jin. At that time, the curfew will certainly take advantage of the situation. Even Gongsun Zan in the North may not be able to help. He may fall into the well


    "It''s not good for us."


    "Therefore, my son''s ministers do not agree with the theory of war, which is not conducive to the development of Jin."


    Yuan Shang said: "as for the release of Guo Tu, although there is some ambition of Chang Zhang Xiu, in fact, he endured humiliation before colluding with Wu. Now, for the sake of the great Jin Dynasty and the continuation of the great Jin Dynasty in the future, my son''s ministers think that it is not too bad to release Guo Tu temporarily. A person who practices boxing does not necessarily recruit boxing. This return of the fist is not to show off one''s bravery, but to be able to make a better fist. We now release Guo Tu, although let Zhang Xiu arrogant domineering, but also just for the next time, can better and Zhang Xiu a war


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao nodded his approval.


    In fact, he just didn''t want to fight, because once he started a war with Zhang Xiu, he would lose a lot of troops. At that time, even the current situation will not be maintained.


    This is what Yuan Shao does not want.


    Yuan Shang''s words confirmed Yuan Shao''s idea.


    Yuan Shang continued: "father, but if we want to release Guo Tu, we have to negotiate with Zhang Xiu. Guo Tu made the second elder brother fall into Zhang Xiu''s hands, and also led us to send Cao Cao''s grain into Zhang Xiu''s hands. "


    "If Zhang Xiu wants to take Guo Tu back, then Zhang Xiu has to pay the corresponding price."


    "The children''s minister suggested that the father should mobilize the army to the border to fight against Zhang Xiu, and then in front of all the troops, let Zhang Xiu release the second brother on the ground of exchanging the second brother, and let us release Guo Tu."


    "In this way, it will not affect his father''s reputation, but also in exchange for his second brother."


    Yuan Shang, with a cool face, continued: "if you do this, you will kill two birds with one stone. If we can threaten Zhang Xiu and let her hand over our food, everything will be more perfect. "


    "WonderfulYuan Shao''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    Before, it was not easy for him to say that he did not want to fight, but now with Guo Tu in hand, he could use Guo Tu to exchange Yuan Xi. Such a return would be tantamount to weakening his meaning of recognizing counsels.


    He is no longer a counsellor!


    He is for Yuan Xi.


    This is what a father does for his son.


    Yuan Shao stood up, his face full of joy, went to Yuan Shang, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "my son is smart, not bad, not bad!"


    Yuan Shang said: "my father''s praise is wrong!"


    Yuan Shao immediately ordered: "go and mobilize the army, and prepare to go with me to the border of Jin. In addition, a notice was issued, saying that as long as Zhang Xiu released Yuan Xi and returned the food and war horses he had taken away before, I can promise his request and release Guo Tu. "


    "Here it is


    Yuan Shangde ordered him to turn around and inform him.


    Soon after, Yuan Shang turned around and stepped down, and immediately went to inform him. At the same time, he ordered to inform all the civil and military officers under Yuan Shao.


    It was also the first time for the Yamen to get the information.


    The judge looked at him, with a helpless look on his face, and sighed: "Mr. Ju, it seems that you still lost. Although your majesty did not mention the direct release of Guo Tu, the current practice is to let Zhang Xiu release Yuan Xi before he is willing to release Guo Tu, but in fact, that is to say, he intends to seek peace from Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    He sighed: "this war, after all, can''t be fought. For the sake of a short period of peace, it is unwise for his majesty to be willing to release Guo Tu. There is a Guo Tu in the great Jin State, and Guo Tu is safe under Zhang Xiu''s command. Then, I''m afraid there will be countless Guo Tu in the great Jin State. Since then, there has been no peace in Jin Dynasty. "


    "It''s not necessarily so bad," the judge said. "Just do your job well."


    "So it is


    He shook his head, and there was nothing else he could do.


    It''s just a step by step.


    It can only be in its position.


    However, in half a day, Yuan Shao mobilized the army of Jin State, with civil servants and military generals such as Jushi and Zhengpei. Then he asked people to escort Guo Tu and leave Yecheng. Then he went to the border of Jin state to compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Even if Yuan Shao did not fight, he could not lose his momentum in his heart.


    You have to prop up your face.


    When Yuan Shao''s army arrived at the border and the army was stationed, Zhang Xiu''s army had also arrived at the border of dangyin county and was close to the state of Jin.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is less than ten miles away from Yuan Shao.


    Under this premise, Zhang Xiu did not delay the time to set up a camp. She took her army forward and went straight to the outside of Yuan Shao''s camp, where the whole army lined up to fight Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 956

    The army was arrayed and the drums were rumbling.


    The roaring drums of war broke the silence, making the whole camp filled with the air of killing.


    When Zhang Xiu went north, he brought the army of Huang Zhong, Chen Dao, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning. The strength of these four armies alone has exceeded 100000 people. Yuan Jun was shocked by such a force.


    Dense gathering of people makes people feel numb.


    At once, the sound of the drum on the horse calmed down and all the people in front of him held their breath.


    At this moment, people are watching.


    Zhang xiulang said: "where is yuan Shaoren? Come out and see him."


    Yuan Shao rode out and stood at the gate of the camp, staring at Zhang Xiu. His face was filled with cold Su and disdain, and said: "Zhang Xiu, you are so powerful! When you get to my camp, you look like you are swaggering. "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "don''t you also come out?"


    Yuan Shao said: "Zhang Xiu, cut the crap. If you want to take Guo Tu away, my condition is to release my second son Yuan Xi immediately, and at the same time repay the grain and war horses I sent to Yanzhou before."


    But Zhang Xiu did not answer, said: "Guo Tu people?"


    As soon as Yuan Shao waved, someone brought Guo Tu out. Today''s Guo Tu, although much thinner, but in fact excellent spirit. Especially when he got Zhang Xiu to send troops to the north, he had confidence in his heart and was not afraid of being killed.


    As long as Zhang Xiu sends troops, his safety will be guaranteed.


    This is Guo Tu''s strength.


    Guo Tu turned his mind and exclaimed: "Your Highness, you must not release Yuan Xi because of Guo Tu. Guo Tu would rather die than let his highness be coerced. Your highness, kill the enemy, kill the enemy! Kill Yuan Shao, defeat Jin and rule the country. Even if Guo Tu dies, it''s worth it. Though he dies, he has no regrets. "


    His words were very passionate.


    In fact, Guo Tu did this on purpose, but he was reluctant to die.


    He didn''t want to die, so he said.


    Is to show loyalty to Zhang Xiu, but also to let Zhang Xiu save him back. He is such a loyal person, if Zhang Xiu does not rescue, then who will work for Zhang Xiu?


    This is Guo Tu''s careful thinking.


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, but she was smiling in her heart.


    Guo Tu has a lot of thoughts.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao, did you hear Guo Tu''s words? He said, "let the king, regardless of his life or death, attack the state of Jin with all his strength and destroy it in one go. He will die without regret."


    Yuan Shao said: "Guo Tu said so, don''t you, Zhang Xiu, just watch him be killed. Zhang Xiu, don''t talk nonsense. Release Yuan Xi immediately, and then hand over the grain and war horses. I''ll release Guo Tu. He is the one who is subordinate to Zhang Xiu. He plans for her everywhere. Zhang Xiu, is it hard to succeed? You are so cruel that you don''t want to control Guo Tu. "


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Xiu heard a sigh.


    Yuan Shao said, "what do you sigh for?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "there are two reasons why I sigh."


    "The first reason is that you have taken away your grain and your war horses before. These grain and armor have been used and are difficult to return."


    "The second reason is that your son Yuan Xi, who was under the command of the king, wanted to flee and was caught by soldiers on the spot. He wanted to resist and was killed."


    "Now Yuan Xi''s body has been taken away by wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountains. I can''t meet the two conditions you mentioned. So now, you can only release Guo Tu. "


    Zhang Xiu threatened: "if you don''t release Guo Tu, we can only choose to attack by force. There''s nothing I can do about it. If Guo Tu dies, I''ll have to avenge him. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed slightly.


    Zhang Xiu is such a rogue. It''s a fraud.


    Yuan Shao can''t believe that Zhang Xiu''s so-called killing of Yuan Xi is completely a speech to coax ghosts.


    Yuan Shao''s sleeves brushed and said: "Zhang Xiu, you should stop talking nonsense and cheating. If you want to cheat, it is absolutely impossible to succeed. You hand over Yuan Xi and Feng Ji, and then you hand over grain and war horses. Otherwise, Guo TU will not live today. This is my only bottom line. If you can''t, Guo TU will die. "


    Sonorous!


    Yuan Shao''s sword came out of the sheath, and his sharp blade was placed in front of Guo Tu''s body. As long as Yuan Shao exerted a little force, Guo Tu would die.


    When Zhang Xiu saw it, she was not moved at all and said, "I can''t give it to you, whether it''s Yuan Xi or Feng Ji, because I can''t take out the dead people. As for the captured grain and weapons, they are the same, and they can''t be taken out. Therefore, in the current situation, you can only set up and release people, otherwise, our king will launch an attack. You have released Guo Tu, and Jin is safe. But if you refuse to cooperate, then the state of Jin will surely be defeated. "


    "You..."Yuan Shao stopped talking for a while.


    Zhang Xiu killed Yuan Xi and Feng Ji, which made Yuan Shao helpless.


    After all, he took out Guo tu. if Guo TU was not brought out, he could also say that Guo TU was dead and could not be taught to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeves and said, "Yuan Shao, it''s all in your mind whether you want to fight with our king or release Guo Tu. The civil servants and military generals under my command, whether they are around me or far away, will never give up as long as they are from the state of Qin. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "this battle, whether it is war or peace, depends on how you decide. Yuan Shao, to you, Guo Tu is just a counselor under your command. But for the whole Jin Dynasty, once the war starts, you Yuan Shao will surely lose. "


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again.


    He''s thinking about how to deal with it.


    Because in the current situation, if he abandons Guo Tu, he is tantamount to giving up.


    In the script set by Yuan Shao, he and Zhang Xiu should take out hostages respectively, then negotiate with each other, and finally hand over Guo Tu. But in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu said that Yuan Xi and others were killed, but Yuan Shao could not refute and threaten Zhang Xiu.


    But Yuan Shao was not reconciled.


    In this way, people all over the world how to treat him Yuan Shao.


    What is his dignity?


    So Yuan Shao bit his teeth, raised the sword in his hand, and stabbed it forward. With a puff, the sharp point of the sword had penetrated into Guo Tu''s left shoulder. In an instant, blood was flowing out.


    Intense pain, make Guo Tu pain. Yuan Shao pulled out the sword, only to hear a puff, the tip of the sword pulled out, blood flowing out, dyed Guo Tu''s clothes red.


    Guo Tu screamed constantly, his body trembled slightly.


    The whole person, extremely uncomfortable.


    Yuan Shao, holding his bloody sword, looked at Zhang Xiu with cold eyes and said: "Zhang Xiu, do you see it? You play tricks, saying that Yuan Xi was killed, saying that Feng Ji was killed, that''s just an excuse. If you insist on this, then my next sword is not to stab Guo Tu''s shoulder, but to stab Guo Tu''s chest. If a sword pierces the chest, there is no doubt that Guo TU will die. "


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu sneered.


    Yuan Shao''s intention to use it to threaten him was just a matter of course.


    It doesn''t work.


    For Zhang Xiu, he brought the army to rescue Guo Tu, which has already shown her attitude. If Yuan Shao insists on killing Guo Tu, then Zhang Xiu can''t stop him. The only thing he can do is to show the most Iron-blooded attitude and make Yuan Shao dare not act rashly.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu raised her hand, all the soldiers under her command lined up.


    One by one, the soldiers were ready to fight. At the same time, the archer in the rear is also holding the bow and taking the arrow, aiming at the front, ready to shoot at any time.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Guo Tu, the king has said that Yuan Xi and Feng Ji have died. Since you don''t believe it, I have nothing to say. Guo Tu is in your hands. If you want to kill someone, I can''t stop you. But the only thing I can do is to avenge Guo Tu, so no matter whether you release Guo Tu or not, I will count to ten. If you don''t release people, I will order an attack. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed slightly.


    It was he who threatened Zhang Xiu, but suddenly, it became Zhang Xiu who threatened him.


    The two sides reversed their identities.

 Chapter 957

    The expression on Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again. The hand holding the sword trembled slightly. From the bottom of his heart, he didn''t want to fight Zhang Xiu. When he heard yuan Shang''s suggestion, he was ready to use Guo Tu to return Yuan Xi and Feng Ji, which was not a shame.


    But everything didn''t go in the direction he expected.


    everything has the final say.


    When Yuan Shao hesitated, Zhang Xiu had already begun to count, and had already counted to four.


    At this time, Yuan Shao became more and more nervous.


    "Five!"


    "Six!"


    "Seven!"


    Zhang Xiu is still a steady count, his every voice down, is like a heavy hammer, hard hit in Yuan Shao''s heart, make Yuan Shao incomparably uncomfortable.


    In fact, it is not only Yuan Shao who is nervous, but also Guo Tu.


    His life and death lie in Yuan Shao''s thought.


    Guo Tu decided that Yuan Shaohui would recognize him.


    But up to now, whether Yuan Shao will admit counsels or not is still unknown, so Guo Tu is also nervous. Because once Zhang Xiu counted to ten, Zhang Xiu had to attack. If Zhang Xiu didn''t attack, he would become a showy figure and could no longer frighten Yuan Shao.


    This is what Guo Tu is nervous about.


    "Nine!"


    When Zhang Xiu counted to the ninth, his hand raised again, and his face was already filled with the spirit of killing.


    Zhang Xiu is really ready for war.


    For Zhang Xiu, it''s the best result to save Guo Tu, but even if he can''t save Guo Tu, he does his best, at least he won''t be criticized, which makes sense in the great sense.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu counted to ten, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "everyone listen to the order, ready..."


    When the words arrived here, yuan Shaona couldn''t bear it any more. He roared: "wait a minute!"


    Zhang Xiu squinted and said, "Yuan Shao, what else do you have to say?"


    Yuan Shao said: "Zhang Xiu, if I release Guo Tu, do you really want to withdraw, not attack Jin?"


    At this moment, Yuan Shao has already counseled.


    He didn''t want to go to war.


    Although the state of Jin has the power of the first World War, Yuan Shao is not willing to fight. At least keep the present appearance, after handing over Guo Tu, he can continue to be natural and unrestrained, and continue to dominate in Da Jin, he is still the emperor of Da Jin.


    This is the strength of Yuan Shao.


    The corner of Guo Tu''s mouth went up, and his eyes looked in the direction of the teacher, casting a smug look.


    He won!


    I lost the bet.


    Jushi specially set up this trap and set up a stratagem to force Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu to fight. But in the end, Yuan Shao did not have the courage to fight and chose to surrender.


    Such Yuan Shao is disappointing.


    He sighed in his heart and looked helpless and regretful.


    Dajin won''t last long.


    When Guo Tu surrenders to Zhang Xiu, and Yuan Shao is threatened by Zhang Xiu, the news of Yuan Shao''s direct release of Zhang Xiu spreads, then the whole territory of Shanxi will have a floating heart, and countless people will no longer be able to serve Yuan Shao.


    This is a huge impact.


    Such a thing seems to have little influence, but in fact, it has a great influence.


    Zhang Xiu glanced over Guo Tu, Ju Shu and others and saw their different expressions. Finally, she returned to Yuan Shao and assured him, "Yuan Shao, as long as you hand over Guo Tu, then the great Qin State and the great Jin State should have done what happened before. The king immediately withdrew his troops and stopped attacking the state of Jin. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you should know that the enemy of our king is Cao Cao, who is fighting with him. Because you wanted to kill Guo Tu, you sent troops north. In the final analysis, Wang is not a murderous man. He doesn''t like to fight everywhere. So as long as the state of Jin is willing to quell the war, then the king will also quell the war. "


    "OK, I agree to release people!"


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and spoke directly.


    "Let go!"


    Yuan Shao gave a direct order.


    But he was not reconciled. He stepped forward again and wanted to retrieve it, so he said, "please think twice!"


    Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "juqing, you should not say more about this. In the present situation, I have made up my mind. I don''t need to persuade you any more. Come on, release Guo Tu immediately, and don''t detain him any more. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers holding Guo Tu were released immediately.


    After Guo TU was untied, he showed a smile on his face and ran forward impatiently. Even though he was injured, he had already arrived at Zhang Xiu''s army line in the twinkling of an eye. Facing Zhang Xiu, Guo Tu folded his hands, endured the pain on his shoulder, bowed himself 90 degrees, and solemnly said: "Guo Tu, see you your highness."


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "Thank you, your highness."


    Guo Tu stood aside with a smile on his face.


    For Guo Tu, he not only won the gambling, but also lost the gambling of Jin''s national transportation because of this gambling. If Yuan Shao fought with all his strength, even if Yuan Shao lost, the state of Jin still had the foundation, the army and the people, so he could continue to fight and resist Zhang Xiu.But now, it''s not the same.


    Yuan Shao''s release of Guo Tu is tantamount to destroying all those who are loyal to Da Jin.


    Let those who are loyal to Dajin chill.


    Guo Tu looked at Jushou with pride and joy in his heart. He is now obedient to Zhang Xiu, even if he is halfway obedient, but it is better to follow Yuan Shao to death.


    He didn''t say a word, and his heart was dreary.


    But Yuan Shao didn''t take care of the thoughts of Ju Shou and others. He looked at Zhang Xiu with a gloomy face and said, "Zhang Xiu, now that Guo Tu has been released, you can lead the troops of the Qin Dynasty to retreat."


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing and said, "I have a word from you. It''s hard to catch up. Since the promise of things, when the promise. But before that, I still have something to say. "


    "Listen to everyone in Dajin, I don''t care about my family background or status. As long as I am a talented person, I will use it as much as possible."


    "As long as you are talented, Daqin will have a place for you."


    "Tian Feng, who used to be the president of the Daqin Inspection Institute, is now in a high position; Zhang Ya, who used to be Zhang Ya, is now the commander of the first army of the Daqin regular army; Zhang Ya, who used to be Zhang Ya, also leads a single army to Liangzhou."


    "The people of dajinzhong, who are subordinated to Daqin, can be reused as long as they are talented."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked, there was a voice on the ground: "I''m in Chang''an, welcome to you. No matter whether you are obedient or not, I will accept it. As long as you are talented, you can be reused. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would give him such a means at the end and stab him again.


    Yuan Shaochen said: "Zhang Xiu, you''ve had enough. It''s time to retreat."


    Zhang Xiu looked at the Jin army and officials in an uproar. He raised a look of disdain and continued: "Yuan Shao, I will tell you another piece of news. In fact, neither Yuan Xi nor Feng Ji died, and now they are all detained in the camp of the king. They are still the captives of the king. "


    "You..."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao turned red with anger.


    Originally, Yuan Shao was already weak and weak, and his body was not very good. Today, Zhang Xiu is a stimulus, especially in front of so many soldiers, Yuan Shao can''t hang on his face, and his chest is up and down.


    "Poof!"


    A mouthful of blood came from Yuan Shao''s mouth.


    Yuan Shao stepped back two steps and pointed at Zhang Xiu. His face was full of resentment and resentment.


    He was extremely unwilling.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu came back with a rebuff. Now she tells him that Yuan Xi and Feng Ji are not dead. This is to tell all the soldiers and civil servants of the Jin Dynasty that Zhang Xiu played a trick on Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 958

    Yuan Shao''s face was full of helplessness. In front of everyone''s face, by Zhang Xiu so tease, his face? After this incident, he will become a laughingstock and the talk of countless people.


    Yuan Shao bit his teeth and said angrily, "Zhang Xiu, I will never give up with you."


    "Oh, you''ll never stop?"


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh and said: "I, Zhang Xiu, always don''t like to talk nonsense. Now that you have said that you will never give up with me and continue to be the enemy of Daqin, then my king will not pay attention to it. Originally I promised you not to fight, but now I have to fight it. "


    "You, you..."


    Yuan Shao was so angry that he was about to vomit blood again.


    He handed over Guo Tu in order to stabilize Zhang Xiu and stop the war between Dajin and Daqin.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is going to war again.


    It means that everything he has done before has become useless.


    Yuan Shaona''s anger seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water. He still didn''t have the courage to fight with Zhang Xiu. He said solemnly, "Zhang Xiu, how can you be convincing if you repeat it so repeatedly. What happened just now was a slip of my tongue. The state of Jin and the state of Qin maintained He Ping and did not infringe on each other. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed when she heard it.


    I can''t help laughing!


    Yuan Shao is also a hero, but today''s Yuan Shao gives people the feeling that there is half a point of heroism, just like a person begging for mercy.


    After laughing, Zhang Xiu said, "Yuan Shao, I didn''t hear what you just said. Please say it again."


    Yuan Shao said, "what I said just now is just a slip of the tongue. China''s Jin and Qin states are willing to maintain peace without invading each other. If you want to attack Cao Wei, the state of Jin will not interfere. "


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth stirred up a smile.


    Yuan Shao was abandoned.


    Such a Yuan Shao is no longer the hero of the past.


    The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command also laughed one by one, with a look of disdain in their laughter.


    The curtain fell in Yuan Shao''s hands. Yuan Shao held back his anger but did not break out. However, Yuan Shao''s civil servants and military generals, all of whom are oppressed, are ridiculed, cheated and humiliated by Zhang Xiu. But Yuan Shao still has to lick his face to reply and flatter Zhang Xiu, which is a disgrace to the state of Jin.


    But Yuan Shao didn''t realize it.


    Now Yuan Shao''s face is full of the look of expecting Zhang Xiu to withdraw.


    He hopes the two sides can resolve the conflict.


    He didn''t want war.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, then said again: "since you Yuan Shao are so sincere, willing to fight with the Qin Dynasty, then this battle will be avoided. Withdraw


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    The army came and went in a hurry, and they left in a hurry.


    Zhang Song followed Zhang Xiu and saw her retreat. He inquired, "Your Highness, Yuan Shao is obviously a counsellor now. The soldiers of the whole army of the state of Jin were also in disorder. Why don''t we take this opportunity to attack Yuan Shao''s army in one go? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "although Yuan Shao has counselled, he may not have no fighting capacity. Now, before Cao Cao was exterminated, he attacked Yuan Shao with a hammer in the East and a hammer in the West. In the end, we were unable to exterminate Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao''s strength recovered. "


    "So for now, let Yuan Shao go back, and our focus will be on Cao Cao."


    "After the destruction of Cao Cao, we will attack Yuan Shao."


    "Yuan Shao, in particular, lost face this time. After the news spread, countless people would attack him. The hearts of the people and the minds of the top officials of the Jin Dynasty would gradually change."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the king is immoral, and does not grudge officials, but also greedy for life and fear of death. Such a king will not last long."


    After hearing this, Zhang Song said, "Your Highness is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu led the army on the way and soon withdrew to dangyin county.


    In the end, Zhang Xiu once again left Langya camp led by Chen Dao to stay in dangyin County, then led the troops under the command of Ganning, Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun southward into Dongjun, and finally returned to Xudu.


    Zhang Xiu withdraws Xu Du, and the left behind Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan immediately come to the audience.


    Jia reported: "Your Highness, now our army has pushed the battlefield to the edge of Taishan county. Next, we can fight Cao Cao. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed approval.


    It''s a good fight.


    When the battlefield reaches the edge of Taishan County, we can fight Cao Cao directly.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "the army is going to Taishan county. Now that Yuan Shao has counselled him, it is a great opportunity to exterminate Cao Cao. This time, we will work hard to defeat Cao Cao completely. "


    All the people were filled with excitement when they heard the words.


    After leaving Xudu, the army went to Taishan county.


    When Zhang Xiu led the army to Taishan County, the news quickly spread to fenggao county.Cao Cao''s face was dignified when he heard that Zhang Xiu had been killed. He ordered people to call Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Liu Bei, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun you and others. He directly told the news of Zhang Xiu''s killing and said, "this Zhang Xiu went north to Yecheng. Yuan Shao directly counseled him. He was scared by Zhang Xiu to hand over Guo Tu. Now Zhang Xiu is coming with tens of thousands of troops. What''s your opinion? "


    Liu Bei sighed: "I have seen Yuan Shao before. Yuan Benchu, who used to be a man of extraordinary valour, had great courage. But now she is scared by Zhang Xiu, and has no fighting spirit at all. It must be unreliable to rely on Yuan Shao. This time, Zhang Xiu will fight to the end or go down directly. Of course, my opinion is to fight to the end. No matter how, do everything to fight with Zhang Xiu. Now I think that we can only let Zhang Xiu take advantage. "


    "Yes, I agree with the first World War!"


    Guo Jiashen said in a voice: "although our intention is to fight for some time and then recover our strength. But Zhang Xiu has come, we have no room to retreat, we have no room to compromise. Today, it can only be the first World War. "


    Cheng Yu said: "Your Highness, I''m seconded. I can only fight to the end."


    The rest spoke.


    Everyone wants to fight to the end.


    Cao Cao looked around and nodded. All the people under his command, whether they were his own counsellors, Zhuge Liang or Liu Bei, suggested a fight to the death, and their hearts were united.


    It''s about the cohesion of the army.


    So it can be a war.


    Cao Cao, with a solemn face, clenched his fist and said, "in that case, we will fight with all our strength. I don''t believe it. Zhang Xiu can kill us directly. "


    Guo Jia zhengse said: "king, the soldiers we have recruited from all over the world, together with the combined forces and the forces of uncle Liu, our total strength is more than 100000. 100000 people and Zhang Xiu to kill, even if it''s death, even if it''s defeat, also let Zhang Xiu heavy damage. I don''t believe it. Zhang Xiu''s mouth is so good that she will swallow our soldiers without any influence. "


    Cao Cao said with a generous smile: "I don''t believe what fengxiao said. Zhang Xiu can win easily."


    Immediately, Cao Cao ordered the mobilization of troops.


    Liu Bei, too, mobilized troops.


    Both sides are sending troops to prepare for the first World War.


    In less than an hour, Cao Cao and Liu Bei''s army had gathered in Ximen, fenggao county. Cao Cao and Liu Bei set out with their troops. After they left Ximen, they went on their way to meet Zhang Xiu.


    In this battle, Cao Cao must face the enemy head on.

 Chapter 959

    Zhang Xiu went to Taishan County, while Cao Cao began to withdraw. The two sides faced each other. Finally, when Cao Cao arrived at the border of Bo County in the west of Taishan County, the army led by Zhang Xiu had entered Bo county from Jibei.


    The two armies met and formed their own ranks.


    Zhang Xiu rode to the front and looked at Cao Cao in front of the army. She put a smile on her lips and said, "Cao Cao, I didn''t expect that it won''t be long before we meet again. The last time we met, you were magnificent and heroic. Now, you are not only old, but also decadent. Now you are on the decline. It seems that you can''t last long. "


    Cao Cao raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "the old man is ambitious, and the martyrs are full of ambition in their old age. Even though I am old, I still have a lot of blood. Even though I can''t move, I can still command the battle. "


    The heroic words come from Cao Cao.


    Old as he is, he is not afraid of death.


    Old as he is, he can still fight.


    Cao Cao''s magnificent heart, as well as ambition, in his words, revealed.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was solemn and said, "you Cao Cao are worthy of being a hero. But even so, you can''t bear it in the end, and you will be defeated. "


    Cao Cao said, "the outcome is still unknown."


    But Zhang Xiu did not answer the question. Instead, she said, "can Cao Cao, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, etc., be in your army?"


    Cao Cao said, "what if you are here?"


    Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Xing and Wei Xu were all people who once belonged to Lu Bu.


    These were all the great generals of Lu Bu.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, some soldiers brought Lv Bu up.


    In the first battle of Dongjun, Zhang Xiu took Lv Bu, but from the beginning to the end, Lv Bu was detained, and Zhang Xiu didn''t even recruit Lv Bu. The reason is very simple. Lv Bu was not a person who was inferior to others.


    There''s no point in recruiting such people!


    On the contrary, it is better to use Lu Bu.


    Fully crush and crush the value of Lv Bu.


    Today, Lu Bu has completely recovered from his injuries, but he has shackles on his hands and feet to prevent him from storming businessmen and escaping.


    Cao Cao was stunned when he saw Lu Bu.


    Lubu!


    Wasn''t Lubu killed?


    Cao Cao didn''t pay much attention to Lv Bu. After all, although Lv Bu was obedient, he was not his true confidant. Only Xu Chu was Cao Cao''s true confidant.


    Cao Cao immediately said: "Zhang Xiu, even Lu Bu is not dead, so what about Xu Chu?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "the words of the king of Wei were passed into Lv Bu''s ears. I''m afraid Lv Bu''s heart is cold. Because such words hurt Lu Bu''s heart. Lu Bu is not dead, but Xu Chu is dead. At that time, Xu Chu was killed in the first battle of Dongjun. "


    Cao Cao clenched his fist immediately.


    His face was full of anger.


    Xu Chu is dead!


    Cao Cao took a deep breath and calmed down his restless mood. Then he continued: "Zhang Xiu, you pull out Lv Bu. What do you have to say?"


    Without waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak, Cao Cao said, "according to your usual style, you should be prepared to use Lv Bu to threaten our king and order our king to withdraw, right?"


    For Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao thought he knew her well.


    Zhang Xiu always did this when she was against Yuan Shao and against him. She used the threat of hostages and then played tricks to weaken the opponent''s army morale, so as to achieve the purpose of gaining an advantage.


    So when he saw Lv Bu, Cao Cao had a guess.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "King Wei is really wise, but even if you are wise, you are wrong. I didn''t pull Lv Bu out this time to ask Cao Cao to withdraw or surrender. Of course, there is also a small requirement. "


    Cao Cao''s eyes narrowed and said, "what''s the small requirement?"


    When he spoke, Cao Cao''s heart was full of scorn.


    Zhang Xiu''s small requirements are not small, especially Zhang Xiu is not a simple thing, but a very powerful person. So at this time, Zhang Xiu has played twelve spirit, careful to prepare.


    Zhang Xiu said: "just now I mentioned about the generals under Lv Bu, such as Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Wei Xu, etc. all of them withdrew from the battlefield and were not allowed to fight. Of course, if they go to war, then I will kill Lu Bu. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "in the heart of the king of Wei, he estimated that he wanted me to kill Lv Bu. Because once Lubu dies, these Lubu people will follow you wholeheartedly. But now, do you want them to retreat, or do you want them to continue fighting with my army? "


    Cao Cao secretly scolds Zhang Xiu for her cunning.


    No matter Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, or the rest of Lv Bu''s generals, they are all valiant generals in the army. They have good fighting capacity and can play a leading role in the army.


    But now, Zhang Xiu wants to get rid of these people, which is equivalent to weakening the power of Cao Cao.But Zhang Xiu''s proposal is not difficult.


    Cao Cao can''t stop it.


    If Cao Cao stopped them, what would they think?


    Cao Cao also knew that Zhang Xiu was scheming, so he didn''t go to sophistry any more. He called out all the generals under Lu Bu, such as Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Wei Xu and Cao Xing. Looking at these generals, he said: "this time we have a decisive battle with Zhang Xiu, we will retreat to the rear, be responsible for the supply of food and grass in the army, and will no longer participate in this battle."


    "Here it is


    Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others answered.


    Their hearts are very grateful to Cao Cao, because Cao Cao''s care, they can be all loyal. Otherwise, if Cao Cao insists on letting them fight, he will be trapped in a desperate situation.


    After Gao Shun and others retired, Cao Cao looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "King Qin, now a group of old officials of Lu Bu have retired, they are not going to fight. You have succeeded in weakening the general''s plan through Lu Bu. Next, if you have any other means, I will take them one by one. Although the state of Wei was defeated several times, the son of Wei never gave up. The soldiers of the state of Wei have always been proud and fearless of war. "


    "If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end."


    Cao Cao''s words are full of generosity and sharpness.


    At this moment, Cao Cao showed his pride.


    He is not afraid of the first World War.


    He was ready for the war. Even though Zhang Xiu''s strength is strong, even though Zhang Xiu has a large number of troops, Cao Cao is not afraid of a war, because in the current situation, he has no way to retreat, he can only fight against the back of the river.


    "Kill


    Xia Houyuan stood in front of the army, raised his long gun and cried out.


    "Kill


    The rest of the generals were shouting.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    More and more Cao''s soldiers are shouting, and their faces are full of fighting spirit. As the saying goes, every soldier has a nest of generals. Cao Cao shows his fearless fighting spirit. His soldiers are also deeply affected and influenced by Cao Cao.


    Even at a disadvantage, they dare to fight.


    This is Cao Cao''s fighting spirit.


    Although Cao Cao is old, he has great ambition.

 Chapter 960

    Cao Jun for a time, morale like rainbow, Zhang Xiu see in the eyes, but smile, don''t care. Even if Cao''s morale is like a rainbow, he must be defeated in the end.


    This is based on the strength of both sides.


    Zhang Xiu saw that the other side was fierce and didn''t say much, waiting for Cao Cao to attack. According to the normal situation, Cao Cao has now boosted the morale of the army, so it''s time to launch an attack. Otherwise, Cao Cao would have wasted his efforts this time.


    Sure enough, when Cao Cao''s morale was the most magnificent, he pointed his sword to the front and ordered: "kill!"


    At the first order, Li Dian led the army out. Nowadays, the roads in this area are wide and flat. It is just such a wide place that is most suitable for fighting and killing.


    Li Dian mobilized more than 20000 soldiers to rush out.


    Twenty thousand Wei army, momentum like rainbow.


    The cry of killing is heard all the time.


    After more and more soldiers spread out, looking down from high altitude, they are dense and numb.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu ordered to fight back.


    At this time, the leader of the battle is Gan Ning, his face is full of high morale, shouting, leading the army out. More than 30000 soldiers of the fierce tiger army went to battle. The infantry were in the middle of the army, and the cavalry covered the two wings. They directly attacked the 20000 Cao troops led by Li Dian.


    Not long ago, the two conveniences had been fighting together.


    Gan Ning took the lead. His sword kept swinging and chopping. The light of the sword flashed in the air, killing the Wei soldiers in front of him.


    The cavalry on both wings are also advancing.


    In particular, the fierce tiger army, with a total of 30000 people, is stronger than the soldiers led by Li Dian in both number and combat effectiveness. Although the fighting between the two sides has not been separated in a short time.


    However, with the passage of time, less than half an hour later, the 20000 Cao soldiers led by Li Dian have begun to appear invincible, and the battlefield is advancing to the side of Cao Wei.


    Now, Zhang Xiu has led the army to retreat and stationed on a half slope in the rear.


    He''s in charge.


    After all, on the slope, although it''s only a ten foot hillside, you can still see the fighting clearly from a high position. In fact, the same is true for Cao Cao, who has retreated to a slope behind the battlefield and led his troops to garrison in an array.


    The two sides were far away. Zhang xiuyao only saw the big flag waving in the air, but he didn''t see the rest of Cao Cao''s position. He couldn''t see a single person. After all, the two sides were a little far away after they retreated.


    Zhang Xiu takes back her eyes and falls on the battlefield.


    Seeing that Gan Ning''s army had gradually won, he put a smile on his lips and said, "in this battle, if Cao Cao wants to fight us head-on, he will surely lose. Even though Cao Cao has strength, he also has considerable fighting capacity, but our forces are enough to crush him. A place without a strong garrison and a natural moat will not be able to stop our army. "


    Jia Xu echoed: "Your Highness is wise. Now Cao Cao will be defeated in this battle. However, Cao Cao''s determination has been shown by the fact that he has gathered a large army here to fight against us. In this war, Cao Cao is already gambling. "


    "It''s a pity there''s no suspense," Zhang said


    Jia Xu said: "what your highness said is true. Eh, Cao Cao beat the drum again, and the army killed him again."


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war ring out.


    Zhang Xiu listens to the distant war drum sound, looks forward, sees Cao Jun''s place, has a big army to kill.


    The chief General of this army, and even lejin.


    Yue Jin also led 20000 elite troops. He rushed to help Li Dian at Cao Cao''s command. 20000 troops were late, but soon after that, they were already on the battlefield and began to stop the fierce tiger army under Gan Ning.


    Under the command of lejin, there are also cavalry.


    Lejin fought with cavalry. He led his troops and quickly joined with Li Dian. With the addition of a new force, the two sides fought again. The situation of Li Dian''s downfall turned a little bit.


    However, Gan Ning did not admit defeat and insisted.


    "Kill, the sons of the fierce tiger army, kill with this general."


    "Fierce tiger army, fight to death


    Gan Ning stands on horseback, constantly waving a knife and shouting, cheering for the soldiers under his command. Even though the number of Cao''s troops is large, Gan Ning is not the slightest timid, leading his soldiers, constantly moving forward.


    This scene fell in Cao Cao''s eyes.


    Seeing this, Cao Cao sighed in his heart and said: "the army under Zhang Xiu is really elite. The 30000 troops are superior to our 40000 elite troops. Even though they are slightly inferior, they are as stable as a mountain. There is no sign of collapse. "


    Xun you was a little nervous and said: "Your Highness, according to the current fighting, it''s a real white-edged battle, constantly consuming the strength of the other side with the lives of soldiers. Zhang Xiu''s troops are more than 100000. Even if we count uncle Liu''s troops, it''s about 100000. This is the rest of the elite. Under such circumstances, in the end, our forces will be exhausted. ""I know!"


    There was a light in Cao Cao''s eyes.


    He can judge the current situation. In the end, his army will be almost lost. It can be said that Cao Cao has already regarded this place as a meat grinder. He wants to consume Zhang Xiu''s troops here, so as to achieve the plan of completely weakening Zhang Xiu, at least to ensure that Cao Cao can survive.


    Otherwise retreat now, Zhang Xiu will approach step by step.


    Cao Cao has no choice.


    It''s only one fight!


    Cao Cao stares at the battlefield and says: "Li Dian and lejin join hands. Our army keeps moving forward and has gradually suppressed the army sent by Zhang Xiu. This first confrontation, Zhang Xiu sent out the first wave of people, quickly unstoppable


    Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others also looked forward.


    Everyone''s looking at the battlefield.


    Now the fighting on the battlefield is becoming more and more fierce. The fierce tiger army under Ganning begins to retreat. Even if it is not defeated, it is still retreating. After all, Cao''s offensive is too strong.


    Order to fly up and kill the bear


    "Here it is


    When Huang Zhong got the order, he drove his horse out.


    "Kill


    Huang Zhong drank with his knife.


    With Huang Zhong''s order, the flying bear army''s son Lang under his command immediately won''t delay any time and will fight out in a mighty way. The fighting power of the flying bear army was extremely powerful. Thirty thousand flying bear troops stepped into the battlefield and quickly blocked the attacking Cao army.


    Although there are some new recruits in the flying bear army, and their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of veterans, most of the whole flying bear army are veterans, with veterans and recruits. Therefore, even if some soldiers lack experience, they are constantly advancing.


    With the addition of these 30000 new forces, the whole Cao army seemed to be drenched in cold water in winter. It was extremely uncomfortable to be drenched in cold water. The troops led by lejin and Lidian had been on the offensive before, but now they are constantly retreating.


    Totally unstoppable!


    This scene, falls in Zhang Xiu''s line of sight, also in Zhang Xiu''s anticipation.


    He sent two armies to kill, enough to crush or even crush each other. When he looked in the direction of Cao Cao, a light flashed in his eyes. He knew that Cao Cao''s little intention of sending troops was to consume his troops.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t care.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s command, there are Zhang Yan''s regular army, Zhang Yan''s Black Mountain army, a Guli''s flying Qiang army, and even the loyal army that has never been mobilized in the rear. The combat effectiveness of his army is strong enough.


    If Cao Cao wants to fight a war of attrition, Zhang Xiu will not admit her advice and will accompany her to the end.


    This time, it is to wipe out Cao Cao''s new force.

 Chapter 961

    The fighting on the battlefield continues.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning are already converging. They are leading their own elite to push forward. No matter Gan Ning or Huang Zhong, their combat effectiveness is extremely strong. On the battlefield, they are like sharp knives, constantly charging forward.


    Unfortunately, they failed to meet Li Dian and lejin. If they could meet and kill the enemy chieftain, they would be able to defeat Cao''s soldiers and further defeat Cao''s army.


    "Kill


    Ganning roared.


    Now he is covered with blood, and his clothes are covered with the blood of Cao''s soldiers.


    His eyes were crazy, his face was ferocious, like a demon. Even Gan Ning himself did not know how many people he had killed. He only knew to rush forward and kill those who dared to resist him.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning are not far away from each other. When they join hands to fight on the battlefield, it seems that there are two sharp knives leading them. They keep pushing forward, and no one can stop them.


    Cao Jun, in constant rout.


    Its rout is becoming more and more fierce.


    Seeing that Li Dian and Le Jin were defeated, Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and said, "Xuande, you should send some soldiers forward. After all, I can''t fight this war alone, don''t you think? "


    Without hesitation, Liu Bei allocated 10000 talents to fight.


    Ten thousand elite are the vast majority of his troops.


    After all, Liu Bei didn''t even have his old nest.


    Before the battle with Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei was defeated, and there were not many troops under his command. Fortunately, along the way, Liu Bei was constantly recruiting soldiers to increase the combat effectiveness of his soldiers.


    With Liu Bei''s 10000 troops on the battlefield, Cao Cao did not delay his time and asked Xu Huang to send 30000 troops to the battlefield again.


    By this time, Cao Cao had already put in nearly 70000 elite troops, including Liu Bei''s troops, 80000 elite troops had been put into the battlefield, and even Cao Cao had more than 20000 troops left.


    After Xu Huang led the army to intervene in the battlefield, the forces of the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army were against each other, and the two sides kept fighting. In a short period of time, they were unable to decide the outcome.


    Even though there are many Cao troops, the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army are not weak.


    What''s more, the flying bear army is the division of all battles.


    Everyone knows that this battle is very important. As long as Cao Cao is killed, there will be countless military achievements and rewards. Therefore, every soldier in the army will go all out to fight and show his strongest strength.


    Looking at the battlefield, Zhang Xiu estimated the number of Cao''s troops involved in the battlefield. Looking at the location of Cao Cao''s flag in the distance, she stood up from the seat, with iron and blood on her face.


    It''s almost time for the final fight.


    Most of Cao''s troops have been involved in the battlefield, and Cao Cao''s troops are not many.


    By now, it''s past noon and the sun is in the sky. Fortunately, the summer heat is fading away. Although it''s also hot, it''s not as hot as June and July, so it''s OK.


    Zhang Xiu just stood and watched the battle.


    The 60000 elite soldiers led by Gan Ning and Huang Zhong are still fighting to death. Even in the face of Cao''s army, whose number is more than them, the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army are still fighting.


    Half an hour passed in a twinkling of an eye.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the battlefield below. Now it''s a mess, and it''s hard to separate. Both sides of the fight, you have me, I have you, are already fighting together.


    Zhang Xiu looked up at the sky, no longer hesitated, and ordered: "beat the drum!"


    Dong! Dong!


    The soldiers in charge of beating the drums sounded the war drums.


    With the sound of war drums, the rapid sound of war drums reverberated on the battlefield. The passionate sound came to the ears of the Qin soldiers. All the soldiers were in high spirits. Everyone knew that the final offensive was coming.


    The cry of death rings out again.


    The attack of the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army was strengthened again and pushed forward continuously.


    The attack is extremely fierce.


    Zhang Xiu decisively ordered: "Zhao Yun!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhao Yun salutes with his fist clasped and sharp eyes.


    Zhang xiudao said: "you lead Baima Yicong, and then take the feiqiang army under aguli. All the people take a detour on the left wing, go straight to Cao Cao in the rear, and defeat the army around Cao Cao."


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun immediately threw his fist.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Zhang jaw!"


    "Yes


    Zhang jaw is also a boxing answer.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you lead the regular army under your command, immediately fight into the battlefield, assist Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, work hard to defeat the elite of Cao army. This battle, it''s time to end. "


    "Here it is


    Jaw opening is also a boxing response.


    The two men immediately ordered to send troops. With the roaring of battle drums, Zhang Ya''s regular army quickly entered the battlefield and killed Cao''s soldiers. Zhao Yun led Baima Yicong and feiqiang''s army to take a detour to Cao Cao.


    Cao Cao saw the white horse killed by Yi Cong and the flying Qiang army, and immediately mobilized his tiger and leopard to fight. Even in the last battle of Dongjun, tiger and leopard riding suffered huge losses, but now it is still enough for the first battle.In addition, all the troops around Cao Cao were sent up.


    At this moment, Cao Cao had transferred out all his troops and no longer kept them. He wanted to fight to the death. Even if he was defeated, it was a magnificent defeat. He had never been a shrinking turtle.


    Liu Bei stood aside and frowned. Now he has thousands of soldiers under his command. These thousands of soldiers are his last troops. He did not send them, and Cao Cao did not urge them.


    Liu Bei was worried in his eyes and said, "King Wei, you are so desperate. You are planning to fight against Zhang Xiu here. Are you planning to stop evacuating? "


    "Yes


    Cao Cao''s eyes were cold.


    He was determined to fight to the death.


    Through their own death, for the continuation of Cao Wei, to fight for a few years.


    Liu Bei frowned deeply.


    He didn''t agree with Cao Cao''s practice, because in Liu Bei''s view, even if he was defeated, as long as he was still alive and had fighting spirit, he could not admit to counseling, because he could fight again if he was defeated.


    In fact, Liu Bei has always carried out this idea.


    He has lost countless times.


    However, after every defeat, although he was in a low mood and was extremely unwilling, he finally picked up his mood and fought again, because Liu Bei believed that as long as people were alive, there would still be opportunities. If people die, everything is gone. Just like this, Liu Bei is able to fight indomitably until now.


    Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and said with a smile, "Xuande, when we attacked the yellow scarf army in the past, we both went to the battle to kill the enemy, but you were not famous at that time, and I didn''t know you. Later, when the princes crusaded against Dong Zhuo, your three brothers rose to prominence. Today, we have known each other for some years. I know you and your ambition better. You are not a man willing to be subordinated to others, but a man with great ambition. So you don''t agree with me. I understand


    Liu Bei said, "then, how did the king of Wei consider it?"


    Cao Cao looked up at Zhang Xiu and said, "I''ve fought with Zhang Xiu several times, but I''ve always tried to compromise. But this time, I won''t retreat, I won''t retreat again. This war, I will stick to the end, even if it is risking his life, will not let Zhang Xiu


    "Better die than retreat!"


    "Xuande, you can take these thousands of soldiers around you to retreat. As for where you want to retreat, that''s your business. I can''t manage it or prepare for you."


    After that, Cao Cao looked at Cao ang behind him and ordered: "ang''er!"


    "There''s my son!"


    Cao ang came forward immediately.


    Cao Cao stretched out his hand and patted Cao ang on the shoulder, saying: "in this battle, our Cao army can''t withdraw. Once we withdraw, we will lose the whole army and have no chance to turn over. I can''t turn over, and I won''t make Zhang Xiu feel better. Because of this war, Zhang Xiu won''t be able to slow down in the next few years. As the son of the great Wei Dynasty, you retreat to Qingzhou with your civil servants and military generals, and then you can rally in Qingzhou. After I stay here, I will fight with Zhang Xiu thoroughly. "


    His words are full of determination.


    Up to now, someone must stay behind and even organize all the soldiers and Zhang Xiu to continue fighting.


    Only in this way can Zhang Xiu be held back.


    Only in this way can Zhang Xiu be seriously injured.


    Cao Cao is ready to stand up and fight against Zhang Xiu thoroughly.

 Chapter 962

    When Cao ang heard Cao Cao''s words, he burst into tears. However, he shook his head and said, "father, you are the backbone of the great Wei kingdom. My father is here, and the state of Wei is here. If father is not here, the state of Wei will not be there. Father and son are willing to stay and command the army. "


    "No need."


    Cao Cao''s big sleeve flicked and flatly refused.


    Cao ang said: "father, there is a Cao Cao in this world. You are the only father of my Cao family. After you leave, it means that the Cao family has no backbone, and the brothers have no father. But when he stayed, he just died a cao''ang and a son of great Wei. Without Cao ang, there will be Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, who are your sons; without the emperor of Wei, there will be them. Father, you are indispensable, but son can be replaced


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Cao Cao heard a loud shout.


    Although Cao Cao''s heart was warm when he heard Cao Ang''s words, he felt that Cao ang had grown up, had a sense of responsibility and blood, and had a strong and firm character in his weak nature.


    But Cao Cao did not agree.


    He couldn''t have left his son behind.


    Cao Cao''s big sleeve flicked, and continued: "this battle, is it because you cao ang stay, can stabilize the situation, can make the soldiers fight to the end. As you said, there is only one Cao Cao and only one Wei king in this world. Only if I, Cao Cao, stay here can we make all the soldiers fight to the end. You, Cao ang, don''t have this ability. "


    Cao ang said: "but my son has a cavity of blood."


    Cao Cao said: "a cavity of blood, but it can''t convince the soldiers, can''t make the soldiers fight to the end. So it''s no use for you to stay in this battle. Besides, this is the first battle between Wang Ben and Zhang Xiu. Everything in the past ended in this war. "


    "Dianwei!"


    Cao Cao gave an order.


    "Yes


    Dianwei saluted with his fist.


    Cao Cao said, "take Cao ang, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu and other civil and military generals to retreat. This battle is the king''s battlefield. You escort them to retreat."


    When Dianwei heard this, he didn''t answer immediately and said, "dianman!"


    "There''s my son!"


    Dianman answers with a fist.


    Dian man is Dian Wei''s son. Now he is more than 20 years old. He is very strong and powerful. Although his martial arts could not reach the level of Dian Wei, he was a rare and powerful general among the younger generation of Cao Wei.


    Dian Wei said: "as father, I want to stay and protect the king of Wei. You should escort the son and your adults to leave at once."


    Dian man opened his mouth to speak, but before he could speak, he was glared by Dian Wei. In a flash, Dian man stopped talking and said, "yes, son, I will do it!"


    "Go ahead!"


    Diane said.


    Dianman immediately took a group of bodyguards, and Tuan Tuan protected Cao ang, Xun Yu and others, ready to retreat.


    Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others, shook his sleeve robe, his face was free and easy, his hands were closed, and he arched his hand and said, "my son and the great Wei are entrusted to you."


    Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao with white temples. He was very disappointed, but he also thought about Cao Cao''s great courage. He didn''t persuade Cao Cao any more, because he understood Cao Cao''s temperament. This is a saying. Now that he has decided, he can''t change his character.


    Guo Jia folded his hands and bowed 90 degrees.


    Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu, man Chong and other civil servants also bowed to Cao Cao.


    Everyone looked solemn.


    One by one, they looked at Cao Cao with admiration in their eyes, and even more reluctant to give up. They have been following Cao Cao for many years. They have been fighting with Cao Cao from south to North and from all directions. Now they want to separate.


    Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "let''s go!"


    Cao ang galloped his horse to his feet. Although he walked forward, he was reluctant to give up. The tears in his eyes, like a broken bead, kept sliding down his cheek.


    Cao Cao waved his hand again, and Cao ang, Dian man, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others reluctantly left. After Cao xiacao and others withdrew, they asked them to leave again.


    As for Li Dian, Le Jin and others who took part in the war, there was nothing they could do.


    The fighting continues and cannot be recalled.


    A moment later, there was only Dianwei by Cao Cao''s side, and all the other civil servants and military generals left, including his Cao family and Xiahou family.


    But the army stayed.


    Only a few people left with Cao ang and others, less than 300 soldiers.


    Cao Cao dismissed all the people, and his face was solemn. He looked at Dian Wei and said with a smile, "Dian Wei, I didn''t expect that you were going to die with me in the end. Why?"


    Dian Wei held his head high and held his iron halberd in his hand. He said with a smile: "the king of Wei, the most powerful man in the world, has a humble position. He can follow the king of Wei to death and die properly. The literati said that only when a man''s body is wrapped around a horse can he live up to the world. It''s a great honor to fight with the king. ""Ha ha ha..."


    When Cao Cao heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of heroic.


    In the laughter, it shows a broad mind.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Cao Cao looked at his bodyguards, who were less than 100 people around him, and ordered again: "beat the drum, beat the drum again, and cheer all the soldiers. How can the son Lang of the state of Wei lose to Zhang Xiu? "


    "Dong! Dong! "


    One by one, the soldiers who beat the drums threw away their arms and kept beating the drums.


    The sound of the drum was loud and mighty.


    Cao Cao looked at the guards behind him again and said, "now let''s shout together. Let''s call Cao Cao here and fight to death."


    "Here is Cao Cao, fighting to the death!"


    Cao Cao took the lead in shouting.


    "Here is Cao Cao, fighting to the death!"


    "Here is Cao Cao, fighting to the death!"


    ¡­¡­


    More than a hundred Pro guards roared, and the loud cry reverberated in the air. Even though there were only one hundred people shouting, the 100 strong bodyguards did their best to shout.


    His voice is as firm as a nail on the head.


    Its momentum is magnificent.


    Cao Cao is carrying the flag, but the representative of the king is waving.


    With this cry, with the shaking of the king''s flag, with the sound of war drums resounding through the world, countless Cao soldiers were inspired, because even if the situation is unfavorable, Cao Cao is still fighting.


    Cao Cao is the soul of the whole army. With Cao Cao in the army, the soldiers have the courage to fight to the death.


    Li Dian, Le Jin, Xu Huang and others are constantly fighting.


    The fighting continues.


    "Kill


    Shouts were constantly heard from Li Dian, Le Jin, Xu Huang and others. Taking advantage of Cao Cao''s efforts in the rear, all of you, the main generals of Cao Wei''s army, were boosting their morale and fighting forward.


    Even though the Qin army was fierce, the Cao Wei soldiers were not afraid.


    Still never retreat!


    Still did not step back.


    This scene fell into Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and Zhang Xiu was also filled with emotion. Cao Cao was worthy of being Cao Cao. In other words, it was Yuan Shao. As soon as she saw such an unfavorable scene, she had ordered to retreat and directly admitted her advice.


    Jia Xu said: "Your Highness, Cao Cao''s plan now is to fight to the end. It seems that we can only make a strong attack, and your highness must come down personally, boost our morale and defeat Cao Jun thoroughly. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, agreed with Jia Xu''s words, now he must personally end. If Cao Cao wants to fight to the death, how can Zhang Xiu be absent? She must go out in person and lead the army under his command to defeat Cao Cao''s army.

 Chapter 963

    "Take my overlord gun!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu reached out her hand, the soldiers around her immediately handed over the overlord''s gun. As soon as Zhang Xiu shakes the reins of her horse with a gun, she rushes out like an arrow from the string. Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Ma Chao and others also begin to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu just rushed out, Jia Xu had ordered his soldiers to ring the battle drum again.


    The rumble of drums resounded through the world.


    This voice even suppressed the cry of all the battlefields and soared to the sky.


    Zhang Xiu and his party said that sooner or later, they had already stepped into the battlefield. The overlord gun in his hand kept sticking forward, and with the point of the gun, they took their lives.


    Overlord gun or smash or sweep, momentum.


    No one can stop them.


    But for a moment, Zhang Xiu''s body has been stained with red blood, which is the blood of all Cao soldiers. He continued to move forward, quickly converged with Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others, and quickly moved forward to cover up.


    Zhang Xiu''s indomitable sprint didn''t take long, but he met Li Dian.


    Zhang Xiu knew Li Dian.


    Seeing Li Dian fighting in front of him, Zhang Xiu drives his horse to carry a gun and rushes up directly.


    Even at this speed, Li Dian was in a hurry and couldn''t avoid Zhang Xiu''s attack. Therefore, Li Dian can only lift the sword in his hand and block Zhang Xiu''s stab.


    "Dang!"


    The impact of weapons makes a dull sound.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Li Dian held the sword''s hand and trembled slightly. Although Li Dian''s martial arts are also good, his strength is to lead the battle and command the soldiers under his command. He is not particularly good at fighting.


    Therefore, Li Dian fell behind in face to face.


    Li Dian wanted to retreat.


    But the problem is, after Zhang Xiu got the upper hand, the overlord''s gun revolved in the air, then swung it again and smashed it to Li Dian. It''s not a clever attack, it''s a hard hit.


    Zhang Xiu is stronger than Li Dian.


    The most suitable is rolling.


    Directly crush Lidian.


    When the overlord''s gun falls, Li Dian can''t avoid it. He can only lift the knife quickly.


    "Dang!"


    The bawanggun hit the blade in the front.


    The powerful force hit the blade hard. In an instant, Li Dian felt that under the impact of the unparalleled force, he could not hold the sword, and the sword flew out.


    The overlord gun continued to go down and fell on Li Dian''s shoulder with a bang.


    Li Dian snorted and fell down.


    The corner of the mouth, more blood overflow.


    In the battle with Zhang Xiu, his internal organs were injured, so that''s why.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t look at Li Dian. As soon as she waves her hand, the guards around her step forward quickly, detain Li Dian and drag him back quickly.


    After Zhang Xiu takes Li Dian, she rushes forward again.


    Like a sharp cone on the battlefield, he pierced into the army of Cao Wei, shuttling back and forth to kill, where no one can stop him. In particular, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others were not far away from Zhang Xiu. Under the leadership of these generals, the morale of the Qin army was even greater.


    "Boys, kill me!"


    "Today is the day to kill Cao Jun!"


    Zhang Xiu while carrying the overlord gun, while shouting loudly. For the soldiers of the Qin army, Zhang Xiu is an invincible victory and the object of admiration of all the soldiers in the army. As soon as they hear Zhang Xiu''s words and see her constant sprint, their hearts are restless, constantly rushing forward and fast sprint.


    Zhang Xiu is encouraging morale, as are Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others.


    That''s true for everyone.


    The morale of the whole Qin army has been constantly rising, and it has already begun to crush Cao''s soldiers. Even if Cao Cao ordered his guards to shout, even if Cao Cao was in charge, Cao''s soldiers still retreated unstoppably.


    I can''t stop it!


    Cao''s army could not stop the Qin''s attack.


    The curtain fell in Cao Cao''s eyes. When Cao Cao saw it, he looked helpless. Even if he had to work hard himself, he would not have been able to reverse the defeat, but it was in Cao Cao''s expectation, so Cao Cao was not unhappy, just a little disappointed, because in Cao Cao''s heart, he wanted to win.


    Dian Wei saw the soldiers begin to retreat, and said: "Your Highness, our soldiers, begin to retreat on a large scale. The army led by Zhang Xiu has begun to fight. "


    Cao Cao nodded and said, "Dian Wei, let''s go. Follow me to the hillside. Soldiers can retreat, but the king cannot. It''s a fight to the death. "


    "Here it is


    Dianwei answered directly.


    Since he stayed with Cao Cao, he was ready to be killed.


    Timothy is not afraid of life and death.


    Dian Wei escorted Cao Cao down the hillside, and soon came to the official road under the hillside. On this broad official road, countless soldiers have come. Even lejin and Xu Huang have begun to retreat here.Xu Huang came to Cao Cao and said, "Your Highness, our army can''t stop it. Under the present situation, it can only be a quick retreat. Let''s go! "


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Gongming, I will fight to the death, so I will not retreat. When you give orders, we want to fight to the end. Those who are willing to fight to the end will stay with us. If you don''t want to, you''ll take them with you. Over the years, you have been working hard under my command. You take those who are willing to retreat, retreat


    "Ah


    Xu Huang heard a cry of surprise.


    Cao Cao wants to fight to the death!


    Xu Huanglian said: "king, as long as you live, you will still have a chance. If you stay, you will die. "


    Cao Cao didn''t explain much and said, "I have decided, so you don''t have to do it all. Ang''er and the rest of the civil and military generals have retired. Now, leave with those who are willing to retreat. "


    Xu Huang''s face changed again and again.


    At one time, he was the Ministry under the command of Dong Zhuo. Later, he followed Yang Feng. Later, he came under the command of Cao Cao. He was respected by Cao Cao and entrusted with important tasks. He was deeply trusted by Cao Cao.


    Xu Huang took a deep breath and said: "Your Highness, Xu Huang is not a person who does not know how to be grateful. Your highness promoted me with me. How can I turn my back on your highness. How can animals withdraw at this time if they know how to be grateful. Your highness wants to fight to the end. Xu Huang will fight to the end. Xu Huang is not afraid of death, and the man is not ashamed. "


    Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Why are you suffering?"


    "I have made up my mind," said Xu Huang


    Cao Cao nodded and said, "it''s up to you, but if you want to retreat, you don''t have to stop them. The king wants to fight to the end in this war. There is no need for them to fight to the end together. "


    Xu Huang said: "the end will understand!"


    He immediately arranged for it to go on, but all the officers and men under his command, knowing that Xu Huang was going to fight to the death and Cao Cao was going to fight to the death, were unwilling to retreat one by one. They all lined up behind Cao Cao, and their eyes were more determined.


    Cao Cao is still so, let alone they?


    Xu Huang came to Cao Cao and said, "Your Highness, we are willing to follow your highness and fight to the end."


    Cao Cao nodded solemnly.


    He didn''t say more, just looked at the retreating soldiers. More and more soldiers retreated, but when they came back, they saw Cao Cao''s banner, Cao Cao''s place, and Xu Huang''s place. The soldiers stopped spontaneously and didn''t retreat again. All of them had a decisive look on their faces.


    The Qin army continued to push forward, and soon the vanguard of the Qin army was less than a hundred steps away from Cao Cao.


    At this time, Xu Huang took Xuanhua axe and said again, "Your Highness, I''ll take the lead in my humble position. In this war, I will take the humble post first. "


    "Kill


    Xu Huang gave a low drink.


    He drove his horse out, and the soldiers under his command kept on rushing forward with the fastest speed.


    "The great Wei Er Lang is fearless in death."


    "Kill


    Xu Huang exclaimed that Xuanhua''s axe was swung and chopped down, and a soldier of Qin army was killed with one axe.


    "Da Wei Er Lang, though he died without fear!"


    "Da Wei Er Lang, though he died without fear!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers cried out, and the expression on all their faces was fearless. Because all those who stay to fight are ready to die.


    Though dead, no fear!

 Chapter 964

    Zhang Xiuzheng leads the soldiers to fight. He hears the cry of the soldiers of Cao Wei. He looks at the soldiers of Cao Wei who are fearless of death and charge again. He feels the charm of Cao Cao in his heart. This group of Cao''s soldiers have retreated, but now they are attacking again. It is a rare thing.


    If the Jin army under Yuan Shao''s command retreated, it would be defeated like a mountain, and it would be impossible to hold on. But this scene is different. Although Cao Jun was defeated, he was still fighting.


    Zhang Xiu praised Cao Cao, but did not keep her hand.


    This is the battlefield!


    This is a fight on the battlefield. To keep hands on the enemy is to be cruel to one''s own people. Zhang Xiu wants to show her respect for Cao Cao, that is to show her strongest strength in return for Cao Cao''s attack.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is constantly wielding.


    He rushed forward quickly, and soon he had already rushed to the front. When Zhang Xiu was killing, he was also watching and listening, carefully examining the situation on the surrounding battlefield.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    He saw Xu Huang.


    In the past, when she was in Xudu, Zhang Xiu knew Xu Huang. She knew that Xu Huang was good at martial arts. However, Xu Huang''s martial arts are just like this, but it''s not so powerful.


    Zhang Xiu carries the overlord gun and rushes forward quickly. It''s just a moment''s effort. Zhang Xiu has already reached Xu Huang''s body. With a big gun shaking in her hand, it''s like a poisonous dragon going out to sea. She stabs it hard forward.


    Xu Huang raised Xuanhua axe block.


    Xuanhua''s axe blade is facing the middle and outside, and the spear stabs. With a Ding sound, it hits the axe blade.


    Even though the power of the spear point sprint was great, it was a little impact after all, and the power could not be released completely. So Xu Huang encouraged his strength a little, and then he relieved the power of the overlord''s spear, without any fear.


    "Kill


    Xu Huang''s axe sweeps and cuts Zhang Xiu straight in front of him. Zhang Xiu raises her gun to block her, and then attacks back quickly.


    After three or five moves, Xu Huang fell into a disadvantage.


    When it comes to dexterity or strength, Xu Huang is far behind Zhang Xiu. Therefore, even if Xu Huang tries his best to resist, he can''t withstand Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is either strong and overbearing, or light and cunning. This transformation of hardness and softness makes Xu Huang very uncomfortable. Facing Zhang Xiu''s attack, Xu Huang is extremely subdued and embarrassed.


    "Let go!"


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    The overlord gun in his hand sweeps down, and the seemingly light shot contains the twelve points power of Zhang Xiu. Under the impact of this vast force, the two weapons hit with sparks, and the force poured out. Xu Huang snorted. He only felt the pain and numbness of his hands. He could not hold the Xuanhua axe in his hands, and the weapon was knocked out directly.


    After winning with one shot, Zhang Xiu swept the country again.


    Just listen to a bang, the barrel of the gun hit Xu Huang''s rib, a face-to-face, then Xu Huang has been knocked to the ground, fell seven meat and eight meat. Zhang Xiu didn''t kill Xu Huang, because Xu Huang, or Li Dian, were both rare tiger generals and good soldiers who could unite the army to kill the enemy. It would be a pity if such people died.


    "Take it!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, then another soldier came forward to catch Xu Huang, and quickly stepped back.


    "Li Dian and Xu Huang are arrested and killed!"


    "Defeat the Cao army!"


    Zhang Xiu once again exclaimed that with the news that Li Dian and Xu Huang had been arrested, the morale of Cao''s soldiers began to gradually decline, and the morale began to decline.


    But Rao was so. Seeing that Cao Cao was still in the rear, Cao Cao still didn''t leave. Therefore, although the soldiers were in low spirits and morale was affected, they were still in the first World War.


    No one back!


    No one surrendered!


    Still fighting to the death.


    Great Wei Erlang is fearless in death.


    This is not a word, but also runs through the spirit of all the Cao soldiers, all the people fight to death.


    This situation adds great difficulty to Zhang Xiu.


    It also caused countless losses to Zhang Xiu''s soldiers.


    If Cao Cao''s soldiers lose early, surrender early and flee early, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers will not lose too much and will not fall into a bitter battle.


    But in today''s situation, even if the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command occupy the advantage, even if the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command keep pushing forward, they can be blocked all the time, so that the loss of the army is huge.


    However, under the current conditions, the sword has come out of its sheath and can not retreat. It can only move forward and kill continuously. Only by destroying the last defense line of Cao''s army can it be regarded as the final victory.


    Zhang Xiu carrying a overlord gun, constantly killing forward.


    Time goes by little.


    The fighting between the two sides became more and more fierce. Cao''s army suffered countless casualties, and so did Qin''s army. Even though Baima Yicong, feiqiang army, liehu army and Feixiong army have been involved in the battlefield, the fighting continues.


    The fighting is getting worse.On the battlefield, a body fell.


    On the battlefield, blood flowed and gathered into a lake.


    On the battlefield, there was a smell of blood and disgusting smell.


    There are even crows hovering in the air.


    The tragedy of the war made both sides put in countless soldiers. With the passage of time, Cao Cao''s soldiers lost more and more, and the number of them was less and less. But from beginning to end, Cao Cao seemed to be a statue, completely unaffected, and still encouraged the soldiers to fight.


    Cao Cao is the real God of the sea needle!


    Cao Cao is here, Wei Jun is here.


    Zhang Xiu broke through the direction of Cao Jun, but his eyes fell on Cao Cao''s banner. Because of the large number of people and the protection of the guards around Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu could not see Cao Cao. However, when Zhang Xiu saw the king''s flag, she immediately turned around and went directly to the direction of the king''s flag.


    Catch the king first!


    Take Cao Cao and end the war.


    Zhang Xiu with Wang Yue and others, constantly forward, not long, it has been close to Cao Cao. At this time, Cao Cao also found Zhang Xiu, who had been killed. In his eyes, he burst out the essence and said, "Dian Wei, it''s up to you next. Take all the tigers and leopards with you, kill them immediately, and fight for the encirclement and killing of Zhang Xiu. "


    If you can kill Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao will make money even if he is dead.


    This is Cao Cao''s wild hope.


    Even though Cao Cao knew it was very difficult, there was still a trace of expectation in his heart.


    Dian Wei nodded, he directly turned over on the horse, carrying the iron halberd, with a hundred tigers and leopards riding out. The two sides walked towards each other, and soon they met. Dian Wei swept the iron halberd in his hand and took Zhang Xiu''s neck.


    Zhang Xiu held up her gun and said, "Dian Wei, you are not my opponent. Get off your horse and surrender immediately. I don''t want to kill you. "


    "Death


    Dian Wei didn''t say a word, but just waved the halberd and attacked.


    He only wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    Dian Wei and Zhang Xiu fight each other constantly, and tiger and leopard riders also attack Wang Yue, Deng Zhan and others. Even if tiger and leopard riders are fierce, Wang Yue''s commander-in-chief is the elite guard of Zhang Xiu. These people are all masters who are good at fighting. When the two sides fight, the 100 tigers and leopards still can''t hold the attack of Zhang Xiu''s bodyguards and begin to retreat.


    Zhang Xiu and Dian Wei fight more than 30 moves in a twinkling of an eye. The more Zhang Xiu fights, the more relaxed she is and the stronger her strength is. That move is in one form, as if like a river, the offensive ferocious.


    On the contrary, Dianwei is rather clumsy.


    Dian Wei is not as good as Zhang Xiu. Now Zhang Xiu''s strength can be defeated even by Lv Bu. Even though Dian Wei has infinite strength in front of Zhang Xiu, he can''t match Zhang Xiu in strength and is constantly suppressed. Dexterity can''t be compared, so Dianwei is fighting hard, but Dianwei is biting his teeth, supporting, still attacking.


    Kill him!


    No self-protection!

 Chapter 965

    Dian Wei''s attack did not pose any threat to Zhang Xiu. On the contrary, after dozens of fighting, Dian Wei''s own body had many injuries, and his blood was flowing and his clothes were dyed red.


    Dianway kept on attacking, but it didn''t help.


    Can''t beat Zhang Xiu.


    Seeing the bayonet of Zhang Xiu''s overlord, he even couldn''t resist, just to avoid the key, so he swung the iron halberd down.


    Puchi!


    The tip of the gun penetrated into pawey''s abdomen.


    When the tip of the gun was drawn out, the blood spattered, and Dianwei hummed, with a look of chagrin on his face. He didn''t expect that his own means of exchanging injuries for lives would eventually be his own injuries, but Zhang Xiu was not affected at all.


    Dian Wei gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and waved the iron halberd to attack again.


    Although injured, but not afraid.


    Timothy wants to fight to the end.


    Zhang Xiu sees Dianwei''s action in her eyes and frowns, because Dianwei is not like Li Dian, Xu Huang and others. Li Dian, Xu Huang and others, although their martial arts are good, they are only good. There is a big gap between their strength and Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu can easily capture each other alive.


    But Dianwei can''t do it. Zhang Xiu can''t even keep her hand. Once Zhang Xiu keeps her hand, in the end, she may have to give Dianwei a chance to turn over, so Zhang Xiu can only do her best.


    Under Zhang Xiu''s all-out attack, it''s impossible to take Dian Wei''s life into consideration. If you want to capture him alive, it''s impossible. You have to live and die. With the constant attack of overlord''s gun, the attack becomes more fierce.


    Pawey is still fighting.


    Zhang Xiu knew that Dian Wei couldn''t surrender, and she also put out her mind to surrender. His overlord''s gun became more and more tricky. Once he shot out, he would take the key point directly, which was fatal.


    Every time, Dianwei exchanged injuries for lives.


    Regardless of his life, he wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    But every time, Dian Wei was injured, but it didn''t hurt Zhang Xiu. In the end, Dian Wei was bleeding all over, breathing in his mouth, and his breathing was a little weak.


    If you were an ordinary person, he would be bleeding so much that he would have fainted for a long time. However, Dian Wei still insists on fighting with Zhang Xiu.


    Rao is so, Dian Wei''s strength has begun to weaken.


    When the two weapons hit each other again, under the impact of peiran''s strength, Dian Wei snorted. He could not keep his body steady any longer. His whole burly body flew upside down and fell to the ground.


    There were no less than fifteen or six scars on him.


    Every injury is serious.


    There''s blood everywhere.


    Dianwei is indifferent, staggering stand up, he shook twice some dizzy head. Even if the sight in front of him was shaking, pawey gritted his teeth to wake himself up.


    Zhang Xiu rode along. He didn''t chase Dian Wei. He looked at Dian Wei, who was already about to fall to the ground. He knew that Dian Wei was now at the end of his life.


    Even though pawey didn''t do fatal damage.


    But he bled too much.


    In later generations, he lost too much blood, and he could also transfuse blood quickly. But in this era, it is almost difficult to diagnose and treat after losing too much blood. Especially now, Dianwei is already fighting for his own death.


    The wound on his body is still bleeding.


    His face turned pale.


    Poof!


    Dian Wei couldn''t suppress the injury of the viscera, and another mouthful of blood gushed out. In fact, he was not fatally injured, but not only in more than ten places, but also in his internal organs. And Zhang Xiu constantly fight, Dianwei''s viscera, there are a lot of internal organs have been concussion, has been severely damaged.


    Pawey was wobbly, a little blurry in front of his eyes.


    He knew his time was coming.


    Dian Wei turned around and faced the direction of Cao Cao. Now he was only 20 steps away from Cao Cao. He could see Cao Cao clearly. When he faced Cao Cao, he bent his knees and fell on the ground with a plop.


    When he knelt down on the ground, his breath grew heavier.


    Whoo! Hoo!!


    The whole person''s breathing is like a bellows.


    Extremely heavy.


    That eyelid has been fighting all the time. It needs to be closed.


    Dian Wei was biting his teeth and sticking to it, but his life was not up to him. He could only summon up his last strength, clasping his hands and saluting in the direction of Cao Cao. But this bow was just in general. Dian Wei''s body fell down with a bang and fell directly to the ground. People had lost their breath.


    Cao Cao saw the scene of Dian Wei''s fall after the ceremony. His eyes were splitting, his lips were closed, and his face was filled with endless grief!


    Dead!


    Dianway is dead!


    Another man is missing from his most important arm.


    First Xu Chu, now Dian Wei, his right and left arm were all killed.


    In Cao Cao''s eyes, there are also tears, but Cao Cao is hard, did not let the tears flow down. He just took out his sword and stood in front of him with both hands leaning on it, gazing at the battlefield ahead.He''s still here!


    He''s still holding on!


    Cao Cao was still, and the soldiers in Cao Wei''s army were still, constantly fighting forward. Even if Xu Huang and Li Dian were captured alive, and even if Dian Wei was dead, no Cao soldiers retreated and surrendered.


    Everyone''s fighting to the death.


    Zhang Xiu also saw this scene. He ordered people to restrain Dian Wei''s body. His eyes turned and fell on Cao Cao. Now he is only about 20 steps away from Cao Cao.


    He turned his horse''s head and went in the direction of Cao Cao.


    With this action, countless Cao soldiers began to gather around Cao Cao to protect his safety. Even though Zhang Xiu killed one Cao soldier after another, no one surrendered or retreated.


    All Cao Jun are fighting to the death.


    More and more Qin soldiers have gathered around Cao Cao.


    Keep killing!


    The soldiers under Cao Cao''s command fought bravely, roared, roared and fought hard. All of them were fighting hard. But at the same time, the number of these soldiers was decreasing.


    Cao Cao devoted nearly 100000 troops to the battle.


    All the soldiers are fighting.


    Up to now, there are fewer and fewer troops. All the soldiers, still fighting to death, were willing to die with Cao Cao.


    The killing continues.


    The blood is still flowing.


    Screams are still echoing in the air.


    Cao Cao''s side, the number has become less and less, has been less than 3000 people. And the number of them is rapidly decreasing, from 3000 to 1000, from 1000 to 800.


    In the twinkling of an eye, there were less than 300 people around Cao Cao.


    It''s already sunset.


    It''s like the bloody sun, hanging in the western sky, the sun down, shining on everyone, as if everyone is covered with a layer of blood.


    When there were less than 100 people around Cao Cao, Cao Cao saw that the soldiers under his command could not carry it, and even Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had been killed.


    Cao Cao looked at Zhang Xiu, who was carrying the gun, and roared: "Zhang Xiu, child, in the afterlife, you and I will fight again!"


    "Fight again in the afterlife!"


    Cao Cao tried his best to roar.


    However, he was unwilling to be a prisoner, so when the long sword was mentioned, the sharp blade was wiped on his neck, and his skin was split, and the blood splashed out like a spring. But Cao Cao didn''t make a painful sound from the beginning to the end, and even held the sword tightly in his hand, as if he wanted to fight to the end.


    Plop!!


    Cao Cao''s body fell to the ground.


    However, Cao Cao''s heroic words reverberated in the air, and all the Wei soldiers heard them. The remaining dozens of Wei soldiers, however, resolutely chose to commit suicide, one by one.


    They fought to the end and never surrendered.


    Vow to die!


    Vow to die!

 Chapter 966

    When Zhang Xiu saw Cao Jun''s scene, she was quite shocked, but she was also filled with emotion.


    So is Cao Cao and so is Cao Jun.


    The death of Cao Cao represents the end of Wei state.


    In fact, if yuan Jun was the same, it would be quite difficult for Zhang Xiu to defeat Jin. Fortunately, there is only one Cao Cao and only one Wei state in the world. Cao Cao is the only one who can block his attack.


    Zhang Xiu ordered to clean up the battlefield and count the losses.


    Without looking at Zhang Xiu, he also knew that his own troops had suffered a great loss in this battle.


    Cao Cao had more than 100000 people, all of them were buried here, and no one surrendered or fled. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu''s loss is definitely quite a lot.


    When Zhang Xiu counted the losses, Cao ang and his party, who were retreating on the other side, also stopped for a rest in the evening.


    Today''s Cao ang is lost in his heart.


    It means that Cao Cao will not survive.


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others, and said, "gentlemen, now my father is dying, and our army is almost destroyed. We are taking only a few hundred troops. Even if I return to fenggao County, I''m afraid I can only withdraw from Taishan County immediately. What should we do now? "


    Guo Jia said: "Shizi, what we can do now is to withdraw from Taishan county and go to Qingzhou according to the arrangement of the king of Wei. But when we retreat, we can arrange for people to go north and ask Yuan Shao to send troops to help us again. "


    "Although Yuan Shao lost several times to Zhang Xiu, in fact, Zhang Xiu still has a considerable strength. Today, the king of Wei and Zhang Xiu fight to death with his army. Although Zhang Xiu wins, in the end, Zhang Xiu''s army of more than 100000 is left with 30000 or 40000 people at most. "


    "This is also a great casualty for the state of Qin."


    "Such a force, especially after it has been weakened, can no longer wipe out Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places. Therefore, on the one hand, we are defending ourselves; on the other hand, we ask Yuan Shao to help us. Of course, whether Yuan Shao is willing to help depends on his choice. "


    Guo Jia analyzed: "in a word, we withdraw from Taishan county and rush to Qingzhou."


    Cheng Yu, with a mournful look, said, "what filial piety says is true."


    Others agreed.


    The situation is unfavourable, and now we can only retreat like this.


    Cao ang nodded and looked at Liu Bei and asked, "Xuande, what are you going to do?"


    Liu Bei said: "my Yuzhou foundation has been occupied by Zhang Xiu, and it is impossible to return to Yuzhou. Now I can only live under my son, and I hope he can take me in. "


    Cao ang said, "Xuande is the best if he can help me."


    Now it''s about survival.


    Even if Liu Bei is not willing to surrender, Cao ang is willing to keep Liu Bei. After all, the current strength is insufficient, and Zhang Xiu may kill him at any time. If there were no external threats, Cao ang would not have left Liu Bei, but now he needs Liu Bei''s help.


    After all, Liu Bei has a little elite around him.


    It can stabilize the situation.


    Liu Bei said, "thank you, Shizi."


    All of a sudden, Zhuge Liang took up the conversation and said, "all along, we''ve ignored Jiang Dong''s sun CE. This sun CE occupied Jiangdong and called himself king of Wu. In fact, his strength was not weak. In recent years, Jiangdong has not been affected by the war and is extremely powerful. So I think we can get help from Jiangdong. This time, I''m willing to take the initiative as a diplomatic envoy to go south to Jiangdong and ask for an alliance with Jiangdong to fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    When Cao ang heard this, he thought.


    He is not a man without knowledge.


    Nowadays, the strength of Wei state is greatly weakened. If we make an alliance with sun ce of Jiangdong, in case Jiangdong''s forces enter, it will be very disadvantageous to Wei state.


    Cao ang turned his eyes and looked at Guo Jia, but saw that Guo Jia nodded slightly.


    Immediately, Cao ang said, "I agree with Mr. Zhuge''s suggestion. In that case, Mr. Zhuge worked hard. If sun ce of Jiangdong could garrison troops in Jiangxia county to contain Zhang Xiu, that would be the best. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "please don''t worry. I will try my best to persuade sun CE to seize the land of Jingnan. Today''s Daqin is more and more difficult to deal with. Therefore, it is not limited to alliance. I will try my best to persuade sun CE to attack Daqin. "


    "So best!"


    Cao ang nodded.


    After that, Cao ang looked back at the officials in the rear, with a lonely look on his face. His heart, is how hope, Cao Cao can come back, can return to his side.


    After half an hour''s rest, the army continued on its way to fenggao county.


    Late at night, Zhang Xiu''s army all finished counting. On this battlefield, a torch burns, dispelling the darkness, making the whole battlefield like day.


    One by one, the generals came to Zhang Xiu''s side.


    The expression on all faces was rather gloomy and serious.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and finally fell on Huang Zhong and asked, "Han Sheng, what''s the situation of this war?"Huang Zhong said: "to your highness, the situation of our armies is summarized. Now there are more than 49000 soldiers left, and all the rest of them died in battle. As for Cao Jun, nearly 100000 soldiers died in the war, all of them were killed, and few of them survived. Although we annihilated the main force of Cao''s army, even captured Li Dian and Xu Huang alive, and even killed Cao Cao in this war, in fact, our losses were huge. After all, our main force has lost too much. "


    The fighting in this war is too fierce.


    Cao''s army would rather die than retreat. All of them fought desperately, which caused great damage to the soldiers of Qin army. Even if Cao Cao''s soldiers were killed one by one, they also killed countless Qin soldiers.


    This battle is not easy.


    This is the first time that Zhang Xiu has suffered such a great loss. His own troops have also been reduced by 80 to 90 thousand, which can be described as an unprecedented loss.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression was silent, which was also a sigh.


    This is the case on the battlefield.


    Since ancient times, on the battlefield, there have been several battles in ancient times. Those who can survive on the battlefield are the elite among the elite.


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said, "all the soldiers who died in the war should be registered. Then a hero''s tomb should be built here to comfort the dead soldiers. All the bodies, burn them together. The pensions for all soldiers who died in the war and the awards for other soldiers who rendered meritorious service will be increased. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong''s fist should be thrown.


    Huang Zhong was also deeply tragic about the war.


    It was a terrible battle. Even though there are still nearly 50000 soldiers under his command, many of them have been injured and their combat effectiveness has been greatly damaged.


    It''s difficult to make a concerted effort to completely destroy the state of Wei.


    However, after the first World War, Wei''s strength could not be restored without three or four years. Even if Wei''s troops were restored, its combat effectiveness could not be completely restored.


    Because people can''t come back from death.


    Cao Cao is dead!


    Dianway is dead!


    Li Dian, Xu Huang and others were captured alive!


    These people, it is impossible to survive, this is the state of Wei can no longer recover.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, suppressed her feelings, looked at Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and others, and said, "now that the war has reached this point, what do you think we should do next?"


    Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Song said: "Your Highness, I think we should pursue while winning. It took us nine oxen and two tigers to win this battle. Today, Cao Wei''s troops who fled are almost negligible. Although we have not found Cao ang and others and they have withdrawn, in fact, these forces are insignificant. As long as we kill, we will win. I''d like to suggest that we start again. "


    He had expectations in his eyes.


    I hope Zhang Xiu will take his advice.

 Chapter 967

    Zhang Xiu did not rush to make a decision, but looked at the rest of the people, waiting for their reply.


    Jia Xu said, "Your Highness, I don''t approve of sending troops."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Jia song and Zhang Xu are forced to speak again, especially with their different opinions.


    Jia Xu said: "if there are more troops left after the war with Cao Cao this time, it will be no problem to be able to fight. But now the remaining force is only over 50000, which is too small. "


    "If there were no other reinforcements on the part of Cao Wei, we would be able to wipe out Cao Wei completely and win the war. But I think that on the part of Wu, sun CE might take action."


    "Yuan Shao may also have some action."


    "So for the time being, we should consolidate the situation and restore our strength first."


    Jia Xu said: "when it comes to the recovery of strength, our army is strong and strong. Even if the white horse is damaged, it can recover quickly. Even if there is a lack of troops, it can recover in a few months."


    "It''s July and August, and it''s getting cooler."


    "Therefore, the old minister suggested that we should take a rest for half a year this year. When the spring comes next year, we should attack Cao Wei again. We should start to destroy Cao Wei and cut off the north and the South directly. At that time, sun CE could not unite with Yuan Shao, and the states of Wu, Wei and Jin were completely isolated."


    Jia Xu said: "what we need to do now is mainly to send troops to Jingzhou to stay in town and prevent sun CE from taking action. After all, there are no troops stationed in Jingzhou today. "


    Sima Yi said, "Your Highness, I''m seconded to your humble position."


    Pang Tong said, "I''m inferior to you!"


    Li Ru said: "Your Highness, what Jia Shangshu said is recognized by his humble position. Therefore, he believed that Huang Zhong should be quickly transferred to Jingzhou to lead his soldiers to the south. On the one hand, he should restore his troops, and on the other hand, he should take charge of Jingzhou. The rest of the army should consolidate the counties they have captured. If there is a chance, they should seize some places. If there is no chance, they can maintain the status quo. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "it should be so!"


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu called Huang Zhong and ordered him to send the flying bear army south. But now Huang Zhong''s flying bear army has only more than 10000 soldiers left, and the loss is relatively small.


    Huang Zhong quickly led his troops to the south, and Zhang Xiu left behind the fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning and the conventional army of Zhang Ya, who were stationed in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and then retreated with the rest of the army.


    With the withdrawal of Zhang Xiu, the news of Cao Cao and Dian Wei''s death spread.


    In Qingzhou, when Cao ang got the news, he cried bitterly.


    His father, after all, died.


    Since then, the Cao family has no support.


    Although Cao ang went northward in his heart, he didn''t sink for long. That is to say, he cheered up and prepared for the follow-up. On the other hand, after returning to Chang''an, Zhang Xiu had already begun to prepare to ascend the throne and become emperor.


    Fortunately, all this is arranged by Jia Xu, Xu Shu and others.


    Liu Xie, who was sent back to Chang''an, is now a puppet. What Liu Xie is thinking about now is not how to keep his position as emperor, but how to keep his life.


    Once Zhang Xiu becomes emperor, he worries about his life.


    Under the arrangement of Jia Xu and others, Liu Xie asked for the Zen throne three times, and Zhang Xiu declined three times. After such an operation, Zhang Xiu took over Liu Xie''s Zen throne and officially became emperor of the state of Qin.


    Zhang Xiu became the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, under the command of civil and military generals, has a great leap.


    However, there has been little change in official positions.


    Because almost all of the six books can be used directly, just to upgrade the rank. Zhang Song and Sima Yi, the assistant officials in the palace of King Qin, all made adjustments, rushed into the six departments and became the people in the six departments.


    Zhang Xiu became the son of heaven and Huang Yueying was the queen.


    At the same time, the prince also put on the agenda.


    At present, Zhang Xiu has only one son, Zhang Cheng, so it''s natural that Zhang Cheng should be the crown prince. However, most of the time, Zhang Cheng did not study in the palace, but still studied in the Academy.


    After Zhang Xiu became emperor, the days remained the same.


    Not much has changed.


    In August and September, the autumn harvest has been busy, and the harvest is very good. In particular, according to the report from the royal guards, sweet potato has been planted on a large scale in Chang''an, Hanchang county and other places, and it is bound to have a good harvest this year.


    When Zhang Xiu retired, it was in September and the air was clear in autumn.


    Zhuge Liang has come to Wuxian County in Jiangdong.


    Wu county is the capital of Wu state.


    It should be relatively easy for Zhuge Liang to go south to Wuxian, but when Zhuge Liang went south to enter Xuzhou, because the news of Cao Cao''s killing spread, there was turmoil in Xuzhou, which delayed Zhuge Liang''s time. So Zhuge Liang arrived in Wuxian in September.


    As soon as Zhuge Liang arrived in Wu County, he met Zhang Zhao, a civil servant of the state of Wu. Through Zhang Zhao, he went to the palace and met sun CE.


    Sun CE was the master of the state of Wu.After all, sun CE was never assassinated.


    Sun CE is not only good at martial arts, but also good at fighting. The army believes in him. With the help of civil servants such as Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan, Zhu Gejin and Lu Su, the national strength of the whole state of Wu is becoming stronger and stronger.


    After saluting, Zhuge Liang said, "the next time the king of Wu is sent to the state of Wu, he is coming on behalf of the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu."


    "What''s the matter?" Sun said


    Zhuge Liang said, "I hope King Wu can form an alliance with Wei and Chu and help each other."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Sun CE now had a beard. He stroked his beard under his jaw, and his face was cold. He said, "I know the state of Wei now. Cao Cao, the king of Wei, was killed and Cao ang, the son of Wei, succeeded to the throne. Zhang Xiu is on the verge of sweeping the state of Wei. At this time, my king is making an alliance with the state of Wei. Isn''t he asking for trouble? "


    After a pause, sun CE continued: "what''s more, Liu Bei of the state of Chu, who you mentioned, is a lost dog. Even his nest has been destroyed by Zhang Xiu. An alliance with them will do no good to the king. "


    "The king of Wu, Miao Yi!"


    Zhuge Liang shook his head and answered.


    The look on his face was still calm, without the slightest fluctuation, and he continued: "King Wu said that it was useless to form an alliance with the states of Wei and Chu, even without the slightest benefit, but he forgot that his lips were dead and his teeth were cold. Now it seems that the strength of the state of Wei has weakened a lot, and even the state of Wu can''t compare with it. But at least the state of Wei can support it and fight with Zhang Xiu again. "


    "What''s more, Zhang Xiuming destroyed Cao Cao. Why did he withdraw from Chang''an and become emperor in Chang''an instead of destroying the state of Wei in a single effort? In fact, Zhang Xiu''s strength is insufficient."


    "In the first battle of Taishan County, the state of Wei lost more than 100000 troops."


    "Zhang Xiu''s troops were at least 80000


    "The battle of Cao Cao weakened Zhang Xiu''s strength unprecedentedly, so now the state of Wei can continue to survive."


    Zhuge Liang continued: "in the future, there is another purpose, that is to hope that the king of Wu can seize the opportunity of Zhang Xiu''s lack of strength, quickly send troops to attack Jingzhou, while Zhang Xiu''s lack of strength, work hard to seize Jingzhou and weaken Zhang Xiu''s strength. Over the years, the strength of Jingzhou has grown a lot, and Jingzhou is prosperous and rich. If the state of Wu can win Jingzhou, it will be of great benefit to the whole state of Wu. "


    Sun CE''s heart pounded as soon as he said this.


    It''s not one day or two that sun CE''s eyes are greedy for Jingzhou. He just mentioned sending troops. Neither Zhou Yu nor Zhang Zhao agreed. Under such circumstances, sun CE could not send troops.


    Now Zhuge Liang gave him a chance.


    Sun CE said, "come on


    When an internal servant entered, sun CE immediately said, "go down and summon Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan, Zhou Yu and Lu Su to come to the palace for discussion. The king has a very important matter to discuss."


    "Here it is


    I''ll send the order immediately.

 Chapter 968

    After a short period of time, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan, Zhou Yu and Lu Su joined hands and took their seats after saluting sun CE. However, when they saw Zhuge Liang, they thought about it in their hearts, but they also restrained their mind and didn''t show anything.


    Sun CE was not a roundabout character. He directly talked about Zhuge Liang''s intention, Zhang Xiu''s loss, and the current situation in Jingzhou. He said with a straight face, "ZHUGE Liang mentioned the alliance of Wei, Chu and Wu. What do you think?"


    "Not right!"


    Zhang Zhao directly retorted.


    Sun CE said, "why?"


    Zhang Zhao said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, now Zhang Xiu''s strength is the best in the world. We are not afraid of Zhang Xiu. But now I enter Jingzhou and fight head-on with Zhang Xiu, but it may not be as good as Zhang Xiu. Your highness once had a hand with Zhang Zhao. You should know that Zhang Xiu is powerful. "


    Zhang Zhao does not agree with the war with Zhang Xiu.


    It''s too much of an impact.


    Even if there was no war in the state of Wu, once he took the initiative to stir up Zhang Xiu, he would be at war with Zhang Xiu.


    This is what Zhang Zhao opposes.


    Zhang Shen said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I don''t agree with Zhang Zibu''s proposal, but agree to send troops."


    Sun CE had a burst of spirit and said, "what''s the reason?"


    Zhang Zhen said: "the reason for being humble is very simple, that is, after Zhang Xiu killed Cao Wei and Yuan Shao, she would also deal with Wu. Instead of waiting for Zhang Xiu to come, it''s better to take the initiative. "


    After a pause, Zhang Zhen said: "we are fighting with Zhang Xiu, so we should not stay. Since it''s a fight, fight with Zhang Xiu to the end. Especially in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu''s strength is weakened, which is the best time for us to attack. If you miss this opportunity, it will be very difficult to deal with Zhang Xiu next. "


    Zhou Yu was very handsome. He agreed: "Your Highness, the last general also agrees to send troops. It is not appropriate to attack Zhang Xiu before, because Zhang Xiu is powerful. Once we attack Zhang Xiu, we will be attacked fiercely by Zhang Xiu, and even the state of Wu will be in trouble. "


    "But now that Zhang Xiu''s strength has been weakened, as long as we enter Jingzhou and seize the territory, even if Zhang Xiu is angry, it doesn''t help, because it can''t target us."


    "As long as the road to Jingzhou in the south is blocked, the territory of Wu can take Jingzhou into its hands. With Jingzhou in hand and Zhang Xiu at war, there will be more confidence. "


    Zhou Yu was inclined to send troops.


    He hoped to expand his territory, not just limited to Wu.


    Lu Su is a national character with a good appearance. After thinking about it, he said, "Your Highness, I also agree to send troops. As you have said a lot about the specific reasons, I will not repeat them. In a word, it is suitable to send troops now. "


    Sun CE laughed.


    He just wanted to send troops.


    What we were worried about before was that everyone was against it, but in today''s situation, no one is against it.


    Everyone agrees.


    This is his chance to send troops.


    Sun CE looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "ZHUGE Liang, the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu have agreed to their request. They can form an alliance to keep watch and help each other. If Zhang Xiu wants to attack the state of Wei, the king will fight for the help of his troops. "


    After a pause, sun CE continued: "speaking of it, now the Zen throne of the son of heaven is given to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu has ascended the throne and become emperor. He is no longer the king of Qin, but the emperor of Qin. Now, although I haven''t been called emperor for the time being, I guess it''s fast. Do you have any plans? "


    Zhuge Liang said, "I need to ask the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu after I return. I can''t make a decision about this."


    Immediately, Zhuge Liang said: "since the king of Wu should come down, I will immediately return to the state of Wei and report the news to the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu. It is expected that the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu will be very happy when they get the news. "


    Sun CE waved his hand and said, "step back!"


    "Goodbye!"


    Zhuge Liang left in a hurry without much delay.


    Sun CE looked at Zhou Yu and others and said, "since we are going to attack Zhang Xiu and conquer Jingzhou. Now, how do we attack? "


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, if you want to attack Zhang Xiu, you should do your best. Therefore, he suggested that 60000 elite troops should be dispatched to attack Jingzhou. With our strength, we will strive to win Jingzhou. "


    "At the end of this war, I will be willing to lead the army."


    "In addition, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai and others were accompanying him. At the end of the day, he would attack Jingzhou."


    Zhou Yu said, "this battle will surely win."


    After hearing this, sun CE nodded and said, "Gongjin is willing to go. It''s the best. However, I intend to fight personally. There are Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan in Wu County. The government affairs are running smoothly and there will be no problems. "


    "Yes," said Zhou Yu


    Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zhen are both talented people.


    Enough to stabilize the rear.


    Sun CE said, "then go and prepare for it."


    "Here it is


    After Zhou Yu, Lu Su and others left, they rushed to arrange the dispatch.¡­¡­


    North, Yecheng.


    When Yuan Shao learned that Cao Cao died in the battle, and even lost nearly 100000 troops, he felt that Cao Cao was too strong to fight. He knew he could not do it, but he had to go to the war. This was clearly a suicide.


    If it was Yuan Shao, he would never be so stupid to die. Yuan Shao laughs at Cao Cao''s death in the war. He does not care about anything, but still enjoys himself.


    On this day, when Yuan Shao was enjoying himself in his backyard, he came. Jushou waited in the hall for a long time, but yuan Shaocai came late. Yuan Shao saw him and said, "juqing, what''s the matter?"


    Ju said: "Your Majesty, we have news from Cao Wei. We hope that the state of Jin can send troops to help the state of Wei and help the state of Wei stabilize the situation. Today, Cao ang, king of Wei, also said that he hoped that Wei and Jin would form an alliance and help each other. "


    "Don''t care about him!"


    Yuan Shao snorted, very dissatisfied.


    Now, he doesn''t like the state of Wei at all. What''s more, he was attacked by Zhang Xiu. Even Guo TU was taken away by Zhang Xiu, and even his army suffered heavy losses.


    It can be said that Yuan Shao was too busy for himself.


    The most important thing is that today''s Yuan Shao, even though he has a deep blood feud with Zhang Xiu, has long been afraid of being beaten by Zhang Xiu. Therefore, when Yuan Shao heard that he wanted to keep watch and help each other and be an enemy of Zhang Xiu, he instinctively resisted and was not willing to make an alliance with Cao ang, let alone deal with Cao ang.


    But he said, "Your Majesty, although Cao Wei was defeated and Cao Cao was killed, Cao Wei is still alive. If we don''t care about Cao Ang''s life or death, and finally Cao Wei is exterminated, we can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. "


    Yuan Shao said, "juqing, that''s something to do in the future. I''ll talk about it later. Now, at least Zhang Xiu did not come to attack. What''s more, Zhang Xiu lost a lot in the first battle of Taishan county. In a short period of time, it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to attack our country. So now, we don''t need to take charge of Cao ang. Let Cao ang live and die. "


    "Alas..."


    I heard a sigh.


    Yuan Shao is now out in a daze. He is completely selfish and does not consider the overall situation at all.


    To know the general trend of the world, it has become more and more clear. If we ignore Cao Wei, the next moment is likely to be destroyed, that is, the state of Jin. Therefore, we think it is necessary to help Cao ang.


    Unfortunately, Yuan Shao refused.


    But as soon as his words reached his mouth, he saw Yuan Shao standing up and hurried back to the palace. He didn''t pay any attention to him standing in the main hall.


    He drew his cheek and sighed in his heart.


    "That''s all!"


    Ju Shou shook his head and sighed. He had no choice but to turn around and leave the hall to tell Yuan Shao''s decision to Cao Wei''s envoys and let them return to the state of Wei.

 Chapter 969

    Jiangxia County, located in the east of Jingzhou, is the gateway between Jingzhou and the state of Wu, which is the most important county. After Huang Zhong led the army to the south of Yanzhou, he returned to Jiangxia again.


    Huang Zhong recruited troops in Jingzhou. In a short time, he restored the organizational structure of the flying bear army, and his troops were restored to 30000 again. Especially with Huang Zhong''s vigorous training, and with veterans leading new recruits, military discipline and combat effectiveness are rapidly recovering.


    With the combat effectiveness of the army, Huang Zhong has the strength to guard Jingzhou.


    Barracks, big accounts of the Chinese army.


    Huang Zhong is looking through the latest information.


    Huang Zhong always believed in Jia Xu''s judgment. Jia Xu decided that the state of Wu might take action, so Huang Zhong arranged many sentinels and ordered them to inquire into the state of Wu carefully.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the camp, the voice of soldiers came out.


    Huang Zhong said, "come in!"


    With Huang Zhong''s order, the tent curtain was lifted, and a soldier entered. He bowed to Huang Zhong and said, "general, the latest information has just been sent. It''s from the royal guards."


    Huang Zhong took the letter and waved the soldiers back.


    He opened the letter and scanned it quickly, with an unexpected look on his face.


    The state of Wu has sent troops.


    Sun CE mobilized 60000 elites to Jiangxia county.


    The news was sent back by the royal guards lurking in the territory of Wu. When Huang Zhong got the news, he immediately arranged to send the news to Chang''an in the north to inform Zhang Xiu. Then he quickly mobilized his army and ordered his soldiers to prepare for the first World War. Now it''s nearly November, and the weather is getting colder. But for the south, it''s still acceptable. Moreover, there is less ice and snow in the south, so there is no impact in Jiangxia county.


    At the beginning of November, when Huang Zhong was actively preparing, the news came back to Chang''an.


    At this time, Chang''an was boiling up and down, because the whole Chang''an County, even many places in Guanzhong, had already harvested sweet potatoes and had a good harvest.


    Countless people have food in their homes.


    Even if you don''t think it''s rare to eat too many sweet potatoes, it''s the best and most exciting thing for the common people to be able to fill their stomachs and eat enough.


    So many people in Guanzhong are happy.


    Countless people are boiling.


    People respect Zhang Xiu even more. Because of the discovery of sweet potato, there are countless people can survive.


    This is a good thing for all Buddhas.


    Zhang Xiu is also happy that she can satisfy the people under her rule, which is a good thing to celebrate. Although she is only full now, Zhang Xiu believes that one day, she will make the people under her command have enough food and meat, so that meat will not become a rarity.


    When Zhang Xiu received the letter sent back by Huang Zhong, she immediately arranged for the six ministers, Pang Tong, Sima Yi, Zhang Song and others to come to the hall for discussion. In addition, Guo Tu also participated in the discussion.


    After all, Guo Tu also obeyed Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said quickly about sun CE''s sending troops, then said: "although we have suffered a great loss after the extermination of Cao Cao, now after a few months, our troops have recovered. Our strength has almost recovered. So now that sun CE has come and I''m ready to fight, what do you think of that? "


    Jia Xu said: "as for Yuan Shao, after the business of Dajin bank and Guo Tu, people''s life is in dire straits and people''s life is very difficult."


    "So now, we don''t need to take care of Yuan Shao for the time being."


    "The strength of Cao Wei was also weakened to the extreme. Throughout the world, Gongsun Zan and sun CE are slightly stronger. Now that sun CE has killed him, his majesty will fight back. "


    "Therefore, I believe that Zhang Yan''s Heishan army can be dispatched to the south. There are 30000 Heishan army, 20000 feiqiang army, and Jiang Xia has 30000 Feixiong army."


    Jia Xu said: "to exterminate Sunce''s 60000 Wu troops is enough to win."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "it is true. Sima Yi, Jia Xu and Zhang Song are accompanying us in this battle."


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi, Jia Xu and Zhang Songqi should join in.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and arrange it."


    "Here it is


    All of them went to work together.


    Zhang Xiu also got up and went to the back yard. After he said something about going south, he came out of the backyard and went straight to the barracks to lead the soldiers south. It was not too far from Chang''an to Jingzhou, especially the road was quite smooth. So in December, Zhang Xiu had already entered Xiangyang, the capital of Jingzhou.


    After seeing Kuai Liang, Zhang Xiu inquired about the situation of Jingzhou. Now Huang Zhong is in charge of Jiangxia, while sun CE''s army has approached the border of Jiangxia and launched an attack.


    Huang Zhong chose to defend comprehensively for the time being and didn''t confront sun CE head-on, so there was no victory or defeat for the time being.


    After a little supply in Xiangyang, Zhang Xiu went to Jiangxia county again.When the army entered Jiangxia, when Zhang Xiu and Huang Zhong joined up, the army led by sun CE only conquered some small towns, but did not achieve great results.


    The Chinese Army''s big account, the guests and the hosts are seated.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Huang Zhong and said, "Han Sheng, what''s the current situation of the war?"


    Huang Zhong said, "I would like to report back to your majesty that the army of the state of Wu is constantly attacking. Although they are humble and full of defense, they can only do their best to defend and can not expel the army of the state of Wu. After all, there are 60000 elite soldiers under sun CE''s command. The general was not strong enough, so he took the strategy of comprehensive defense and waiting for reinforcements. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "this is the safest strategy. Now that we are united, the number of our army has surpassed that of Wu. Therefore, we can change the offensive and turn the defensive into the offensive. "


    Huang Zhong hugged his fist and said, "Your Majesty, please give me an order!"


    There was a light in his eyes.


    During this period of time, he has been taking defensive measures, and all his soldiers are defensive. For the officers and men in the army, this is extremely humiliating. When did the army of Qin need to avoid the edge of Wu?


    This is simply impossible.


    So one by one has been prepared for a long time. They want to fight and be ashamed before the snow.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "as a pioneer, the flying bear army under your command will go to the front line first and prepare to fight with sun CE. I will lead the army to postpone and then come


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong should hold his fist.


    There is no specific plan for the moment. After all, there is no real fight. If it really involves planning, we have to wait until we fight with sun CE''s army before we can consider the specific plans and arrangements.


    Huang Zhong left in a hurry and set out. Huang Zhong''s army was in the front, while Zhang Xiu''s army, after a little rest, also followed, followed and went to sun CE''s army.


    On the other hand, at the camp where sun CE''s army was located, when sun CE got the news that Huang Zhong had killed him and Zhang Xiu had followed him closely, he immediately called Lu Su and Zhou Yu and quickly told them about Zhang Xiu''s killing.


    Finally, sun CE said: "this time Zhang Xiu went south, he had 50000 elite soldiers around him, including Huang Zhong''s flying bear army, nearly 80000 elite soldiers. If we fight head-on, we will definitely lose to Zhang Xiu. So what''s your plan for this war? "


    On Lu Su''s honest face, he looked serious, but in his smart eyes, he was shining with the light of wisdom, saying: "Your Highness, now Zhang Xiu is going south, the edge is flourishing."


    "What''s more, Zhang Xiu is more powerful. Therefore, it is suggested that we should avoid the attack for the time being. As soon as Huang Zhong''s vanguard troops arrived to fight, we retreated after fighting for a while to avoid the edge, which made Zhang Xiu think that our army in Soochow was vulnerable and made Zhang Xiu despise it. After we retreat, we gradually retreat to the Yangtze River and fight with the natural advantages of the Yangtze River. "


    "Zhang Xiu''s troops are strong and strong. If we fight on the flat ground, we are not Zhang Xiu''s opponents no matter what. The only way to win is to avoid the edge and fight Zhang Xiu on the river. "


    Lu Su had a clear understanding of the war.


    He knows his strengths and weaknesses.


    Therefore, suggestions are given.

 Chapter 970

    Sun CE always comes and goes straight, and rarely goes around in circles. Although sun CE''s temperament is like this, he has never been willful on the battlefield. He knows that the temporary retreat is not fear, but for better counterattack.


    So sun CE listened to Lu Su''s suggestion, but he didn''t make a decision immediately. Instead, he looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Gongjin, how do you know that Zhang Xiu sent troops?"


    Today, Zhou Yu is also much more mature, he said: "Your Highness, I agree with Zijing''s proposal. The killing of Zhang Xiu''s army is a great threat to the state of Wu. If we are short of troops and fight head-on, we will be defeated. "


    "It''s a fool''s job to attack the other with his own short points."


    "So now, we will go back to Chaisang. On the one hand, there is the Yangtze River to the north of Chaisang. We can use the advantage of geographical location to block Zhang Xiu''s army. On the other hand, it''s also an opportunity to let Zhang Xiu know that it''s easy for him to gallop in the north, but when he comes to the south, especially in the south of the Yangtze River, his army has to shrink. "


    Zhou Yu gave suggestions.


    Sun CE said: "if so, withdraw immediately."


    Zhou Yu said, "Your Highness is wise!"


    Sun CE is not a procrastinator. He does things in a crisp and resolute manner. After working out a plan with Zhou Yu and Lu Su, he moves quickly. Sun CE, who was attacking Jiangxia County, withdraws his troops and leaves.


    This news first spread to Huang Zhonger.


    After Huang Zhong got the news, first, he arranged for people to send the news to the rear and let Zhang Xiu deal with it; second, he strengthened the arrangement of sentries and arranged more sentries to inquire about sun CE''s news, so as to ensure that he knew sun CE''s situation in time; third, he slowed down the speed of going on the road slightly and was on guard to avoid being ambushed.


    Huang Zhong doesn''t know whether sun CE''s retreat is a real one or a fake one. If he is ambushed in front of him and is killed by sun CE, it won''t be wonderful.


    So along the way, Huang Zhong went on cautiously to ensure the steady progress.


    When Huang Zhong arrived at the border of Jiangxia County, the news spread to Zhang Xiu in the rear.


    Zhang Xiu saw sun CE withdraw some, some accident.


    Sun CE came, but even if he withdrew.


    Obviously, she doesn''t want to fight him head-on, but if Zhang Xiu withdraws with the army now, sun CE will invade Jiangxia county again. This is a typical way for the enemy to advance and retreat. Zhang Xiu knows it very well.


    In such a situation, the only way is to make the opponent''s strength incomplete and unable to organize the offensive.


    Otherwise, the other side is like a dog skin plaster, sticking up constantly.


    It''s disgusting.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to go north to deal with Cao Cao or Yuan Shao, the first thing to do is to defeat sun CE''s army and make sure that sun CE can''t send any more troops in a short time. Therefore, in Jingzhou, Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to worry and can go north with all her strength.


    Zhang Xiu and his army continued to advance to the front line. When Zhang Xiu''s army came to the border to join Huang Zhong, the army was temporarily stationed and did not continue to advance.


    The Chinese army is in the tent.


    Zhang Xiu sat down with all the guests and guests. Looking around, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "about the battle with sun CE''s army, sun CE has retreated to Chaisang county and settled down in Chaisang county. What do you think of it?"


    Zhang Song sat down and didn''t yell.


    He was used to it.


    Every time he opens his mouth, he will be rejected immediately. In the end, his suggestions are not smooth. So when Zhang Song hears Zhang Xiu''s inquiry, he thinks carefully in his heart. At the same time, he also waits to see what Jia Xu and Sima Yi have to say.


    However, neither Sima Yi nor Jia Xu took the lead.


    Seems to be thinking.


    When Zhang Song saw this, he couldn''t restrain his agitation and said, "Your Highness, I think the main problem of attacking Jiangdong is to cross the river. This is sun CE''s defense focus and the place where he attacks us."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, a look of listening and encouragement.


    Inspired by this, Zhang Song said, "under the current situation, what sun CE relies on is the Yangtze River. In fact, Jingzhou has always had a water army. That''s why I think we can transfer the water army of Jingzhou to cross the Yangtze River. As long as we cross the Yangtze River, we can drive straight in and get firewood. "


    Sima Yi said: "the question is, once we cross the river, will there be Wu state building boats on the Yangtze River to attack? You know, what Wu is good at is fighting on water. "


    "If we go to World War I, we may not be able to stop it."


    "The most important thing is that all the soldiers in our army, except the Feixiong army, are not used to water fighting and let them fight on the ship. They are shaky and unstable, and even feel uncomfortable. I''m afraid it''s difficult to fight."


    Sima Yi said: "the Yangtze River is vast and broad. Even in the cold winter, people who are not idle can not spend it in the dry season."


    Zhang Song said: "to defeat sun CE, that''s a step we must take. Even if it''s hard, I''m afraid it''s easy to deal with. Your highness, there is a way to ensure that the soldiers in our army will not be affected by the waves of the ship and can fight like walking on the ground. "Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the plan?"


    Zhang Song replied: "our army of 80000 and 90000 has countless soldiers. If we want to cross the Yangtze River, we must recruit countless warships and building ships. We can connect all the warships with iron locks. If such a building ship is connected in series, there will be less shaking and swinging. In this way, we will not be afraid even if we are attacked."


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Isn''t that the result of Cao Cao''s defeat in Chibi?


    This era is not like later generations. It''s very easy or even comfortable to cross the Yangtze River. However, in this era, both sides of the Yangtze River have not been developed. Only the ferry terminal can log in, so it''s very difficult for northerners to cross the Yangtze River.


    It''s extremely vulnerable.


    But the problem is that there are also considerable problems in connecting building ships and warships.


    When Sima Yi heard Zhang Song''s words, she thought about the feasibility of Zhang Song''s plan.


    But Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "Lord Zhang, all our building ships are connected by iron locks. But in case sun CE''s army takes fire attack and rushes into our building ship with countless ships carrying hay, how should we deal with it when all the building ships catch fire?"


    Brush!


    Zhang Song''s face changed greatly.


    He didn''t take this into consideration. It was a complete omission.


    If this really happens, it will be a loss of troops and a loss of generals in the end. Even if the 80000 troops can''t even touch the other side''s hair, they will have to go back to their homes and lose. There will be countless obstacles to the unification of the Qin Dynasty.


    This battle against sun CE is of vital importance.


    Zhang Xiu won sun CE''s battle, and it''s easy to wipe out Cao Wei. If we don''t win sun CE, Qin''s strength will be damaged. If we want to unify the world, it will be impossible in a short time.


    So it has to be won.


    Zhang song took a deep breath, suppressed the bitterness of his inner breath, and said, "Jia Shangshu refuted my strategy. Then, what brilliant strategy does Jia Shangshu have to let his Majesty''s army directly enter the state of Wu and win this war?"


    He began to fight back.


    This attack on Sun CE was different from the fighting in the north. The fighting in the North was mainly the fighting of cavalry and infantry, but the developed water system in the South was not suitable for the fighting of cavalry.

 Chapter 971

    Jia Xu smoothed his beard under his jaw, and said with a straight face: "speaking of it, Mr. Zhang''s suggestion is really good, relatively mature, and can be used as the first link in the plan to attract sun CE''s attention."


    "My suggestion is actually very simple."


    "It''s to attract sun CE''s attention by using the building ships connected in series with iron locks. Then, on each ship, a few soldiers who can swim will be arranged to sit in town to deceive sun CE. "


    Jia Xu said: "this fleet of building ships is on its way along the Yangtze River, ready to log in at Chaisang ferry. Then our army quietly chose the place to log in Chaisang county. Attracting the attention of sun CE by the boat, secretly dispatched the soldiers to leave. In this way, we will win the battle! Even if we lose some buildings, it is worth it for us. "


    A plan is on the paper.


    Zhang Song immediately understood Jia Xu''s strategy, which was obviously a higher level than him. Although it was one more step, the difference between the two steps was quite different. After all, Zhang Song didn''t expect it.


    Zhang Song thought quickly, and suddenly said: "Jia Shangshu, but the boats are empty. For discerning people, especially those who know how to build a building ship, we can judge whether there are soldiers on the building ship by looking at the sinking range of the building ship. "


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "isn''t it simple? Just dispatch soldiers to carry some stones to the building ship. In this way, the building ship will naturally sink slowly. Your consideration is not a problem at all. "


    Zhang song was embarrassed.


    Yes, the question is so simple that he asked it.


    He has lowered his level.


    After hearing this, Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty, I agree with Jia Shangshu''s suggestion. It''s the most appropriate way to build a plank road in the open and to cross the old storehouse in the dark. When sun CE suddenly finds out that our building ships are empty, and he doesn''t see any soldiers, he will suddenly find out that our troops are all close to Chaisang. "


    Zhang Xiu immediately said: "that''s it. It''s settled. We''ll follow this plan. Now, what we need to do is to mobilize the real estate vessels in a big way, and then prepare to connect all the real estate vessels together. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu and others all should go down.


    After the plan was made, the officers and men in the army began to take action. The army changed its garrison location, chose the ferry at the border of Jiangxia County, and then began to collect the buildings and ships. Zhang Xiu also specially asked the soldiers to stand on the warships for training. At the same time, she was also doing the work of connecting all the warships with iron locks.


    All this is in full swing.


    The news had never been hidden, so it soon spread out. When the news reached Chaisang and sun CE, sun CE laughed. After a long time, he arranged for people to call Lu Su and Zhou Yu.


    When he saw Zhou Yu and Lu Su, he couldn''t help laughing again.


    Zhou Yu said, "what is your highness laughing at?"


    Lu Su is also curious. During this period of time, sun CE is busy practicing and thinking about the war with Zhang Xiu. He has always been quite worried. It''s rare for him to laugh so heartily.


    Sun CE said: "having just received the news from Jiang Xia, Zhang Xiu has started to collect large-scale building ships and is ready to lead the army across the river to Chaisang. However, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers were not used to water warfare, so they practiced on the ship every day. In addition, all of Zhang Xiu''s building ships are chained together, obviously afraid of fighting on the water. I can''t help laughing at the thought of Zhang Xiu''s advice and her fear of fighting on the water. "


    When Zhou Yu and Lu Su heard this, they both had smiles on their faces.


    This is really good for the state of Wu.


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, although Zhang Xiu''s army from the north is not used to water warfare, in fact, the flying bear army under Huang Zhong''s command has been stationed in Jingzhou, and the flying bear army suffered heavy losses after the first World War in Taishan County, which was supplemented by recruiting soldiers in Jingzhou. So the soldiers of the flying bear army are actually good at water warfare. Therefore, we must not be careless. After all, there is Huang Zhong


    "I know that Huang Zhong can fight on water."


    Sun CE said: "but the problem is, after all, only Huang Zhong''s water army and Huang Zhong''s flying bear army can turn the situation around and win the war


    "Huang Zhong can''t sing alone now."


    "Zhang Xiu is really powerful, but when we come to the state of Wu, we have to admit it. But Zhang Xiu is also shrewd, even thought of all the boats, the way together


    "Such a method can minimize the dizziness of the soldiers and weaken the shaking of the ship. What I''m thinking about is how to deal with these building ships. "


    "As long as we work hard, we will wipe out these troops. Then Zhang Xiu''s new force will be severely damaged. If he wants to attack Wu again, it will be impossible. "


    Sun CE continued: "even if he wants to defend Jingzhou, it''s not so easy."


    Zhou Yu said, "I have a plan."


    Sun CE said, "Gongjin, speak quickly."


    In this moment, Zhou Yu looks forward to a solution.


    "In fact, it''s very simple. We have people patrolling the river all the time. We just need to observe the movement of the river at any time. Once we find that Zhang Xiu''s fleet is coming, we will arrange a boat to carry all the hay spilled with fire oil. ""When the fire oil is ignited, these ships rush to Zhang Xiu''s fleet, and Zhang Xiu will surely be defeated. Of course, it needs wind direction. After all, only the wind direction is right. When the ship is close to Zhang Xiu''s fleet for a certain distance, the soldiers can jump into the water. "


    "If there is no suitable wind direction, I''m afraid that under the wind of the opposite direction, a fireboat can''t pose a threat to Zhang Xiu''s fleet. Only when the wind direction is right can it work. "


    Zhou Yu said: "however, from the appearance of Zhang Xiu''s fleet, it is not a matter of a moment to cross the Yangtze River and log in. For us, we have plenty of time to wait for the opportunity."


    Sun CE slapped his hand on his thigh and exclaimed, "yes, yes, Gongjin''s strategy is really wonderful. Zhang Xiu is not familiar with water station, so she doesn''t know these tips. If we can kill Zhang Xiu, it would be the best. If Zhang Xiu is killed, the state of Qin will never recover. "


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, it''s not easy to kill Zhang Xiu. Our goal in this war is to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army, so as to ensure that Zhang Xiu will not be able to go south in a few years, and even we have a chance to seize Jingzhou. "


    Lu Su said: "what the governor said is reasonable."


    Lu Su agreed with Zhou Yu''s plan, because Zhang Xiu''s strength is too strong. It''s almost more difficult to kill her. It''s good to defeat her army.


    After a pause, Lu Su said, "Your Highness, there is one more thing. It''s domestic."


    "What''s the matter?" Sun said


    Lu Su replied: "the news of Zhang Xiu''s army going south has already spread. The news of our war with Zhang Xiu spread in China. Some domestic officials have been clamoring for the news that we are defeated by Zhang Xiu. They are even clamoring to surrender to Zhang Xiu and can''t resist it. "


    "Damn it


    Sun CE clenched his teeth and looked angry.


    A bunch of soft bones.


    Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, anyone in the kingdom of Wu can surrender, but your highness can''t. If we surrender to Zhang Xiu, we can still maintain high rank. But his highness surrendered to Zhang Xiu, so in the end, he can only become a cage bird. "


    Sun CE said: "Gongjin''s words are clear to me."


    He looked at Lu Su and said, "Zijing, please remember carefully who are the people who are clamoring to surrender. Write down these people one by one. After we beat Zhang Xiu, we''ll clean them up. Now, let them jump for a while. "


    "Here it is


    Lu Su should bow his hand.

 Chapter 972

    In December, even in southern areas like Jiangxia County, it is quite cold. Today''s river water is freezing, not a strong and perennial swimmer. Once you fall into this kind of river water, there must be no life or death.


    During this period of time, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, from time to time by boat in the river training, momentum is very big.


    It was done on purpose.


    Specially let Sun CE''s sentinel spy find out, let everyone know that Zhang Xiu is ready to attack sun CE.


    Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to send troops in December, but considering that the weather was too cold, the wind was fierce, the cold water was icy, and the soldiers couldn''t bear it, so she didn''t take action. She just kept training the soldiers and continued to recruit more warships.


    Zhang Xiu did not attack immediately, but let Sun CE firmly believe that Zhang Xiu wanted to cross the Yangtze River and attack Chaisang.


    Otherwise, Zhang Xiu would not be so ambitious.


    It''s not like training soldiers like this.


    Time flies and the new year begins in a twinkling of an eye. The weather in the south is warmer. When the north is still cold and the spring is chilly, there is sunshine every day in Jiangxia county.


    It''s good for the army.


    February 18 is a lucky day.


    Zhang Xiu personally vowed to fight. The water village was in the camp, isolating the internal and external contact. Even if there were sentinels in Jiangxia County, they could not find out the specific situation inside.


    The water stronghold connects the Yangtze River. After Zhang Xiu boarded the flagship, all the big ships slowly rose.


    On every big ship, there is a king''s flag flying.


    On every big ship, there are soldiers in formation.


    Its momentum is immense.


    Its power is mighty.


    Zhang Xiu''s warship is not in the front, on the contrary, it is in the back. After all, he represents the great Qin Dynasty. He only needs to sit in the rear. In Zhang Xiu''s flagship, Jia Xu is also there, but Sima Yi and Zhang Song are not. They stay in the water village, because they are responsible for the smuggling of troops.


    Standing on the deck of the warship and facing the river wind, Jia Xu said, "Your Majesty, the area where we are now is still in Jiangxia county. It is estimated that it will be some time before we can meet sun CE. It''s quite different to take a boat on the river from that on Hu Po. I''m not used to some on-demand programs. "


    Zhang xiudao: "Wenhe, it''s OK to get used to it."


    Jia Xu laughed and said: "it''s estimated that sun ceyi is very happy to see our hundreds of building ships crossing the sword together and going to the place where Chaisang is. Unfortunately, he didn''t know that we had to fight together, that is, thousands of soldiers, and the rest of the main force stayed in the water stronghold. "


    Now a building ship draught, because all filled with stone.


    Apart from the soldiers rowing and decorating on the deck, there were no more soldiers. All the other soldiers stayed in the water village. After Zhang Xiu attracted sun CE''s attention, Sima Yi, Zhang Yan and others would sneak in quickly.


    Now even Huang Zhong is beside Zhang Xiu.


    After all, Zhang Xiu needs to face around, to ensure that people are convinced that Zhang Xiu''s army is on the ship. As for Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and others, Sima Yi and Zhang Song acted together.


    This is the beginning of the war between Zhang Xiu and us. It is not easy to destroy the state of Wu. But now, it is an opportunity to weaken sun CE. If sun CE had not taken the initiative to attack, we would not have paid any attention to sun CE for the time being. He asked for all this. "


    Jia Xu said: "indeed, sun CE asked for all this."


    Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu are chatting, and the army is still on its way.


    When the fleet led by Zhang Xiu appeared on the Yangtze River and headed for Chaisang, the news quickly came back to Chaisang.


    When sun CE got the news, he quickly called Zhou Yu and Lu Su and said with a smile, "here we are. Zhang Xiu has finally sent troops. This piece of embroidery has been working behind closed doors for several months in Jiangxia county. It is also a water army that has practiced for several months. Now it has finally come out. Imagine Zhang Xiu now, is fierce, think training for a few months of water army, can win our Jiangdong water army. But in fact, it''s too weak to withstand a single blow. "


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, I still have some doubts about Zhang Xiu''s playing tricks. But as soon as Zhang Xiu practiced the water army, it was just a few months of Kung Fu. These months of action are not in vain. This time, he really wanted to fight on the water. This battle is our chance. "


    Sun CE stood up and said, "let''s go, prepare to fight with Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhou Yu said: "in this war, we only need to send 40000 elite to accompany us. The remaining 20000 elite will stay in Chaisang county. After all, Chaisang is the rear area, so we have to consider its safety. I will fight with your highness, and Zijing will stay in Chaisang. "


    "No problem!"


    Lu Su responded without hesitation.


    He also agrees with Zhou Yu''s analysis. Even if he is fully confident in this war, Chaisang is an important town and the gateway of Jiangdong. There can be no problem. So he is a good choice to stay in Chaisang with 20000 troops.Sun CE also agreed with Zhou Yu''s analysis. Without saying much, he left Chaisang with Zhou Yu and went straight to Chaisang''s Ferry. As a matter of fact, Chaisang is close to Poyang Lake, where there is a water stronghold of the state of Wu. All the fleet of the state of Wu are here.


    From the north of Poyang Lake, you can go straight to the Yangtze River along the waterway now opened.


    Sun CE led the fleet to leave Poyang Lake and head for the Yangtze River. In fact, now from Poyang Lake to the Yangtze River, it is downstream, and the speed is relatively fast.


    However, sun CE was carrying countless boats, which were covered with hay, so even if they were downstream, the speed was not too fast.


    When Zhang Xiu goes to Chaisang and sun CE goes to Zhang Xiu, the two sides are facing each other. Jiangxia county is close to the Yangtze River, a remote place. Looking across the river, you can see that the opposite bank is Chaisang county.


    But these places can''t cross the Yangtze River without river bridges.


    But at this moment, led by Chen Dao and Zhang Yan, they have quietly come to a slightly low-lying and flat terrain. It''s early spring, and it''s still in the dry season. It''s not the time for the river to flood in summer, so the beach is relatively wide.


    It is true that the Yangtze River is still more than 100 feet wide, which is not easy to pass.


    But now, there are boats gathering.


    Boat after boat gathered here, and then one by one, constantly close to the other side of the river. Finally, two rows of boats were formed, all tied with ropes, across the Yangtze River.


    After the boats were connected in series, there began to be rows of rafts directly laid on the boats. In particular, there are ropes on both sides of the raft. Although the soldiers are shaking on the raft, they can stabilize themselves with the help of ropes.


    This is a simple floating bridge.


    So that the soldiers can cross the Yangtze River quickly.


    When all this was built up, Zhang Yan gave an order, and the soldiers in the army quickly began to cross the river and quickly went to Chaisang County on the other side. Although it was a little remote in the past, it was better to be able to cross the river quietly.


    When all the soldiers crossed the river, Zhang Yan looked at the whole group of soldiers and gave the order for the whole army to move forward. It''s easy for soldiers to cross the river, but in fact, the food supply after crossing the river is the most troublesome. Therefore, every soldier under Zhang Xiu''s command has only 15 days of dry food. They must seize Chaisang within 15 days, or they must find food in no hurry. Otherwise, the whole army will be at risk.


    This is the key.


    It''s not difficult to cross the river. What''s difficult is logistics supply. But now it''s impossible to supply continuously.


    The only way is to win Chaisang County as fast as possible.


    Sun CE didn''t know all about Zhang Yan and others crossing the river. Sun CE still thought that Zhang Xiu''s army was already in the fleet, and was moving along the Yangtze River to Chaisang county.

 Chapter 973

    On the mighty Yangtze River, Zhang Xiu''s fleet is still moving steadily. The speed along the way was very slow. For the Qin army, who was not used to water war, it was reasonable to be slow, so there was no doubt.


    In March, the weather is getting warmer.


    Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu are still basking in the sun on the deck. Today''s Jia Xu is used to the life on the deck and the shaking situation.


    Zhang Xiu is the fleet, continue to move forward, in front of a boat, fast approaching.


    This boat is Zhang Xiu''s spy.


    The boat quickly arrived at the building boat and quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s flagship. When she saw Zhang Xiu, she reported: "Your Majesty, there is a fleet of Wu on the Yangtze River ahead. It''s six or seven miles away from us. "


    "Here we are at last!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    He has been wandering on the river for such a long time, waiting for sun CE to kill him.


    Now, sun CE has finally come.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and stood on the deck, looking at the vast Yangtze River, looking at the endless blue waves, with a look of awe on his face. He waited for a long time, and finally arrived.


    I just don''t know how the March between Zhang Yan and Zhao Yun is going.


    After all, after Zhao Yun and Zhang Yan took the army across the river, the biggest problem was food supply. If food supply could not keep up, or could not quickly find food, then after the dry food was exhausted, this army that went deep into the hinterland of Chaisang would become a lonely army, which would be quite dangerous.


    This is what Zhang Xiu is worried about.


    However, this is not what Zhang Xiu can change. What he can do now is to do a good job.


    But Jia Xu said with emotion: "it''s a pity that there is no wind today. If there is a wind, it will blow in the direction of sun CE. When the time comes, our building will be on fire, and we will move forward quickly. At that time, it will not be easy for sun CE''s warships to escape. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is no way, but no wind is not bad."


    Jia Xu nodded yes.


    At least for them, it''s not against the wind. Once it blows, they will be more affected.


    As time went by, Zhang Xiu could see many boats on the river in the distance. But at this time, sun CE''s warships were waiting in front of her, covering all the boats.


    When the distance between the two sides is less than 100 Zhang.


    Sun CE decisively ordered to get out of the way. For a moment, all the building ships and warships retreated one after another, and then the boats full of hay were moving forward quickly. The soldiers rowing one by one were working hard to move forward quickly.


    Go!


    Head of the young general, shout up.


    Xiaojiang''s face was full of excitement and expectation. He constantly ordered all the soldiers to paddle, making the boat move forward.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    A hundred steps!


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    The rapid shortening of the distance, especially the warships under Zhang Xiu''s command, is also moving forward, which leads to the continuous shortening of the distance between the two sides. However, when the distance between the two sides gets closer, the soldiers on the front warship, including the rowing soldiers, all come from the warship building quickly, and then leave by boat.


    A boat, in the bottom of the building slowly to the back.


    However, the distance between the two sides finally narrowed to less than ten steps.


    "Light up!"


    With the order of the boat general, the soldiers quickly took out the flint, ignited the hay on the boat, jumped into the river.


    "Plop! Plop


    One after another, soldiers of the state of Wu kept diving into the water.


    A burning boat, has been loaded on the building. In particular, the firewood on the boat was all sprinkled with kerosene. Because of the presence of kerosene, the kerosene burned very quickly.


    A moment later, the building in front of the building was ignited by the fire and turned into a sea of fire.


    Although there was no wind, the building ships were next to each other and connected in series with ropes, so that under the fire, more and more building ships were ignited and began to burn.


    Zhang Xiu''s flagship is at the back.


    When the boat came, the soldiers under his command had already cut off the ropes. The flagship of the building stopped, and then began to retreat slightly to avoid the burning warship in front.


    Although hundreds of building ships were destroyed, consuming countless money, but for Zhang Xiu, he is not short of money. If you spend some money, you can destroy the state of Wu. Zhang Xiu is willing to.


    This is an opportunity.


    When Zhang Xiu retreated a little, sun CE was on the other side. He stood on the deck of the building ship, looking at the burning scene in front of him, frowning, with a puzzled look on his face.


    Sun CE looked aside and said, "Gongjin, this is not right. There are at least four or five hundred soldiers on each of Zhang Xiu''s building ships. After all, their building ships are not very good. Once the building is on fire, there should be countless people running out of the building and diving to escape. ""Of course, they dive for death."


    "But if you stay on board, you will die. After diving, there may still be a glimmer of life. "


    "But now there are no soldiers on the building, not even a single one. And this is not a two ship. If you look at it carefully, there are no soldiers in all the building ships under Zhang Xiu''s command. "


    Sun CE said in a deep voice, "is this Zhang Xiu''s trick?"


    Zhou Yu also frowned.


    He looked carefully at the front, looked through the front of the building, saw behind the flag is still flying, there is still a king''s flag flying, and has been out of the battlefield of a warship.


    Although the distance is far, but can see the distance.


    Zhou Yu said, "Your Highness, I''m afraid we''ve fallen into the trap. Zhang Xiu''s King flag is here, and Zhang Xiu is indeed there. But the problem is that Zhang Xiu''s army is definitely not there. I expected that Zhang Xiu''s army must be from which position, and then crossed the river into Chaisang territory. However, our army''s eyes were on Zhang Xiu before, so that they didn''t find it. "


    Sun CE said: "Gongjin, what shall we do now? Once Zhang Xiu''s army suddenly killed Chaisang. Even if Lu Su and his army were on guard, I''m afraid Chaisang would be in danger. "


    Zhou Yu turned his eyes and said, "Chai sang is not too worried. After all, Lu Su is here. Even if Zhang Xiu''s army were to enter the Yangtze River, it would not be easy to supply food and logistics. For the time being, the rear is safe. Your highness, I suggest pursuing Zhang Xiu immediately. Then, we return to Chaisang and prepare to encircle and suppress the Qin army. As long as we surround each other, Zhang Xiu''s Qin army will be completely finished. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Sun CE nodded and agreed with Zhou Yu''s analysis.


    He immediately gave an order, ordered his soldiers to move forward quickly, bypassed the burning sea of fire, and went straight to Zhang Xiu''s flagship. It''s just that he''s on his way, and Zhang Xiu''s flagship is also on his way. In a short time, sun CE can''t catch up.


    After half an hour, sun CE stopped.


    We can''t catch up. We have to withdraw.


    After sun CE retreated, Zhang Xiu turned around and began to move forward along the Yangtze River. But this time, Zhang Xiu didn''t go straight ahead. After he found a ferry, he took all the soldiers out of the building and then logged into Chaisang.

 Chapter 974

    Zhao Yun and Zhang Yan led the army into the territory of Chaisang County, which was a quick way.


    At first, Zhao Yun and others didn''t know the distance to Chaisang, but after inquiring into the news, they were surprised to find that they were only 120 miles away from Chaisang county.


    It only took less than two days for Zhao Yun and Zhang Yan''s troops. Therefore, in just one day, and the soldiers were on their way day and night, they were less than 40 li away from Chaisang County, and they were getting closer and closer to Chaisang county.


    Towards evening, everyone stopped to have a rest. Sima Yi and Zhang song also took time to rest. After all, they were not generals. They rode for a short time, but they couldn''t bear to ride for a long time.


    Zhao Yun came to Sima Yi and said, "Mr. Sima, I have been thinking about a problem all the way. Not far from the city, Chaisang county has a water stronghold, which can lead directly to Poyang Lake and then to the Yangtze River. "


    "Once sun CE finds out the truth of his majesty, he will withdraw quickly. If we take Chaisang first, there will be no problem. But if he fails to capture Chaisang County, sun CE will come back, and the consequences will be extremely difficult. "


    Zhao Yun said: "so I wonder if I can divide up some troops to ambush on the way. Once sun CE withdraws from the water village and lets Chaisang county come, we can stop him halfway. "


    Sima Yi said with a smile: "what General Zhao said is very true. I have considered it before. But before we got to Chaisang, there was no arrangement. It has to be arranged to prevent us from being caught. In addition, it can also stop the Wu army leaving from Chaisang. "


    Zhao Yun said: "in that case, I will tell General Zhang Yan to make arrangements."


    "Yes!"


    Sima Yi nodded.


    Zhao Yun turns around and goes to arrange it. Sima Yi looks at Zhao Yun''s vigorous posture and sighs with emotion that he is worthy of being a tiger general in the army. After such a long journey, their backs are aching, but Zhao Yun looks like nothing.


    He can''t match that.


    After about half an hour''s rest, the army continued on its way.


    Go to Chaisang again.


    The army was still on their way through the night. In one night, they finished the last forty miles. When they approached Chaisang County, soldiers in the army hid in a dense forest far away from Chaisang county.


    There is no forest nearby, only this bamboo forest.


    Tens of thousands of troops are hiding in it.


    Today, the gate of mengsang county is not even opened at dawn.


    Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan, a Guli, Sima Yi and Zhang song came together.


    People are deliberating on how to deal with it.


    Zhao Yun said: "from where we hide, it''s only about 200 Zhang away from the gate of the city. As long as we have 30 or 50 people occupying the gate, we can delay the arrival of the army. "


    "In particular, according to the information sent back by the royal guards in the early stage, there is no urn in Chaisang, which means that we only need to take down the gate to enter the city."


    "This is our chance!"


    Zhao Yun said: "so my idea is that I will take more than 50 soldiers and we will disperse and go to the gate of the city. As soon as they arrive at the gate of the city, they suddenly kill the soldiers patrolling at the gate, and then wait for the arrival of the army. "


    Zhang Song said, "General Zhao, this is quite dangerous. Have you considered it clearly?"


    "I know!"


    Zhao Yun''s face was full of fearlessness, and said: "this kind of danger is not big. It seems that the risk is great, but in fact, it is the point of delaying time, which is relatively dangerous. As long as you arrive in the shortest time, everything is not a problem. "


    Sima Yi said: "I agree with General Zhao''s suggestion, but you can''t go empty handed. We have a carriage in our army, which was specially designed for Zhang Song and me before, but we didn''t use it, but the carriage has been there all the time. You will follow on both sides of the carriage, there are more than 20 people around the carriage, so that the other side will not be on guard. You follow the carriage to the gate of the city


    After a pause, Sima Yi said: "in addition, more than ten cavalry will be released. As soon as you stand at the gate, the cavalry will follow. The cavalry will run at full speed and reach the gate in a short time. In this way, we can catch each other unprepared.


    "Yes!"


    Zhao Yun nodded solemnly.


    Zhang Yan said immediately, "I will join the war with general Zilong."


    "I''ll go too!"


    Aguli also spoke.


    Both Zhang Yan and a Guli are the main generals in the army. Now they are all the pioneers.


    Zhao Yun also did not stop, after finalizing the plan, he quickly selected candidates, and then arranged. With the passage of time, when the sky in the East appears white, the gate of Chaisang county opens with a creak.


    Then a group of soldiers came out to guard at the gate of the city.


    There were not many soldiers, about ten.


    It''s for order.Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and a Guli have gone to the gate with the carriage. There were 20 of them, each with weapons, and they were in awe.


    Zhao Yun and other people''s appearance, the soldiers at the gate looked, but did not pay attention. After all, they are stationed at the gate of the city, and there are countless people coming and going every day. There are also people from noble families who enter Chaisang by carriage, and they are also escorted.


    Therefore, the garrison soldiers did not have any panic.


    Zhao Yun is less than 20 steps away from the gate of the city.


    Fifteen steps!


    Ten steps!


    The distance between the two sides is rapidly shortened. When the distance between the two sides is shortened to less than six steps, the cry of stop is heard. The school stationed at the gate of the city is already striding forward. He comes to Zhao Yun and says, "show me your identity?"


    Zhao Yun''s hand was full of force, but with a clang sound, the sword came out of its sheath, and the sword was cut horizontally.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cuts the neck of Xiaoxiao.


    The red blood splashed out at once.


    The school staggered back two steps, then fell to the ground, while at the same time, the driver shook the reins, the horse pulling the carriage quickly forward, straight forward.


    Seeing this, the soldiers of the state of Wu stationed around roared and yelled for the enemy''s attack.


    But Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and a Guli have already started.


    More than 20 people started to kill the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city, and then quickly came to the gate. At this time, the carriage stopped at the gate of the city. Even ten soldiers in the carriage got out and stood inside the gate.


    Including Zhao Yun and others, there are more than 30 people.


    All at the gate.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of the Gong has already sounded on the city tower. It''s a warning of the enemy''s attack.


    With the sound of the Gong, more soldiers were killed at the gate. The mighty soldiers of the state of Wu rushed in quickly. The dense head made people feel numb.


    This scene is shocking.


    After seeing this, Zhao Yun had a fearless look on his face. He gritted his teeth and said, "now is the time to serve the king of Qin. Your daily training and your daily efforts are shown here. "


    "Fight to the death!"


    Zhao Yun exclaimed.


    "Fight to the death!"


    "Fight to the death!"


    ¡­¡­


    More than 30 soldiers agreed.


    The expression on all faces was fearless, because Chaisang''s gate must be captured at this time. If Chaisang''s gate is not controlled, the subsequent cavalry and infantry will not be able to enter the city and capture Chaisang.

 Chapter 975

    Lu Su was on the tower. He believed in Zhou Yu''s judgment. So Lu Su has been resting on the tower, in order to deal with possible accidents at any time. When the Gong rings, Lu Su also quickly rushes out of the room, comes to the tower, and sees the enemy suddenly killed from the tower.


    Lu Su quickly ordered the soldiers stationed in the city to go all out to attack and expel the Qin army who killed at the gate of the city.


    "Kill


    The cry of killing started from outside the city.


    Lu Su looked up and saw that countless soldiers had been killed outside the city.


    Cavalry goes first, infantry follows.


    Countless Qin soldiers came straight to Chaisang county.


    Lu Su saw this behind the scenes, quickly ordered his soldiers to expel the enemy at the gate as soon as possible. If you don''t close the gate quickly, Chaisang will be in danger.


    The soldiers of the state of Wu killed at this moment have already arrived at the gate of the city.


    Zhao Yun waved his sword.


    In Zhao Yun''s hands, the soldiers of Wu state were constantly killed, and no one could resist Zhao Yun. Even if the crowd was surging, Zhao Yun did not retreat.


    Zhang Yan and aguli are the same.


    The other 30 soldiers each brandished their swords and killed the soldiers who rushed up.


    Even though Zhao Yun and others were fierce, they were small in number after all. Under the attack of the dense soldiers of the state of Wu, they were defeated. However, neither Zhao Yun nor aguli could retreat.


    All fight to the death!


    At this time, retreating is tantamount to giving up the city gate and losing the only chance.


    Better die than retreat.


    Zhao Yun and others will be surrounded in a twinkling of an eye. Once they are surrounded, the soldiers of the state of Wu can go up and close the city gate. At this critical moment, Herod, the war horse, hissed. The white horse Yi Cong cavalry, who had been killed first, had already been killed and stabbed out with his gun.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp spear pierced into the soldiers of the state of Wu. As soon as the spear was mentioned, the soldiers of the state of Wu immediately fell back to the ground.


    Follow up cavalry, keep up.


    The arrival of the cavalry relieved the pressure of Zhao Yun and others. Even with the arrival of the subsequent reinforcements, Zhao Yun and others were surrounded, but now the crisis has been resolved, and they began to fight back and push forward into the city.


    "Kill! It''s today to capture Chaisang. Go in! "


    Zhao Yun saw that Baima Yicong and the follow-up army had come to the gate of the city, shouting orders.


    Under the command of the army, continue to advance.


    More and more Qin troops entered, one by one brave and good at fighting, constantly killing the soldiers of Wu state. In particular, Zhao Yun and Zhang Yan were all powerful generals on the battlefield. After Zhao Yun and others kept pushing forward, and more and more soldiers entered, the soldiers of Wu state began to retreat, and there was no support.


    Even though there are more than 20000 soldiers left behind in Chaisang, the problem is that 20000 people can''t fight in the city, especially more and more Qin soldiers are killed, and the number of Qin soldiers is far more than 20000.


    The appearance of the Qin army is frightening.


    Lu Su looked on the tower, his cheek twitched slightly, and he sighed in his heart.


    It''s a trick!


    Mingming thought that there might be an enemy attack, but he fell into the trap.


    Lu Su''s heart, but also particularly helpless, especially roughly estimated that the number of Qin troops, at least 40000 to 50000, such a scale, he can not compete.


    "Withdraw!"


    Lu Su had no choice but to give an order.


    With Lu Su''s command, all the soldiers under his command quickly went to the east of the city, and no longer guarded. Since he can''t hold on, he can only retreat directly.


    Zhao Yun saw the troops of the state of Wu retreating in the city, so he immediately led his troops to catch up with them.


    Lu Su just out of the east city, Zhao Yun''s white horse from the Yi has caught up. In particular, although this section of the road is not suitable for a large range of cavalry, the road about 40 feet wide is enough for the horses to drive quickly.


    After catching up with him, the white horse Yi led by Zhao Yun kept slaughtering.


    Zhao Yun quickly forward to kill.


    In his mouth, he also cried out: "those who fall will not be killed!"


    With the order of surrender not to kill spread out, countless soldiers of Wu who were fleeing and could not escape threw away their weapons and surrendered one after another. They did not dare to stop Baima Yicong''s pursuit.


    Zhao Yun pursued forward all the way. He didn''t know how many people had been killed or how many people had surrendered. He only knew that there were still people fleeing in front of him, and there must be big fish in the front.


    Zhao Yun took his soldiers and quickly killed them.


    This pursuit is getting closer and closer to the Poyang Lake Water Village, which is less than ten miles away.


    Lu Su retreated at the front,


    he drove his horse on the road and ordered his soldiers to retreat. At this time, Lu Su was full of remorse. If it had not been for his carelessness, he would not have lost Chai sang or lost so much."Retreat, retreat!"


    Lu Su gave a loud order.


    When Lu Su looked back, he saw the Qin army hiding behind him getting closer and closer to him. Especially when Lu Su was retreating, he heard the voice of surrender shouting from the rear.


    This made Lu Su lose his heart.


    Lu Su kept running forward, but when he ran forward for about two miles, he was surprised to see an army on the official road ahead, with the number of about 10000 people.


    All of them were Qin soldiers.


    These ten thousand Qin troops, armed with weapons, blocked Lu Su''s retreat.


    Lu Su saw that the Qin army appeared on the way to the water stronghold. He immediately reined in his horse, and his horse, Herod, hissed and stopped. At this moment, Lu Su''s face was very sad.


    It''s over!


    It''s a complete hit!


    From attacking Chaisang county to retreating, the Qin army calculated the route of his retreat.


    Everything was expected.


    It was impossible for him to retreat at this time, because behind him were the Qin army. And it''s impossible for him to break through. Because there were tens of thousands of Qin troops blocking the way ahead, he could not break through.


    "What shall we do, my lord?"


    A small school came forward with a very nervous look on his face, because at this point, they had no way out.


    Lu Su sighed with a sigh: "come down!"


    "Surrender


    The school was ordered to surrender immediately.


    All the surrounded soldiers surrendered and threw away their weapons.


    After catching up with the soldiers, Zhao Yun saw the ambush killed and all the people who surrendered. After a little interrogation, he knew the existence of Lu Su and arranged for someone to detain him.


    When Lu Su was in the state of Wu, he was Sun CE''s right-hand man and a counsellor.


    When he caught Lu Su, he caught a big fish.


    Zhao Yun put all the prisoners in custody, then ordered to clean up the battlefield, wipe out the bloodstain, and finally ordered to withdraw and quickly return to Chaisang county. By the time all the results were counted out, the Qin army had killed less than 600 people, but more than 6000 were killed and more than 12000 soldiers were captured.


    Most importantly, Chaisang was successfully captured.


    Chaisang County, as the gateway to the west of the state of Wu, is an important town of the state of Wu, which has sufficient food and weapons. With food and weapons, Zhao Yun takes root in Chaisang. He is no longer a rootless Ping and does not have to worry about food.


    After Zhao Yun settled everything down, he changed the flag of Wu''s army. If sun CE came to Chaisang directly, or even entered Chaisang, he could keep sun CE, or even take sun CE.


    If sun CE is aware of it, then it''s better to be prepared.

 Chapter 976

    After entering the Poyang Lake water system, sun CE went all the way south. In a short time, he returned to the Poyang Lake water village.


    As soon as the army led by him arrived at the water stronghold, he saw some soldiers coming.


    These soldiers fled when Chaisang county was attacked.


    They evaded the pursuit. When the Qin army led by Zhao Yun returned to Chaisang County, these soldiers quietly lurked outside the water village, waiting for sun CE''s return. Now, as soon as sun CE came back, these escaped soldiers rushed up quickly.


    The leader is a centurion.


    He rushed to sun CE, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said, "King Wu, it''s not good."


    When sun CE heard this, he felt a thump in his heart.


    A heart sank suddenly.


    Sun CE said in a deep voice, "what happened?"


    The centurion said, "Chai sang has fallen, and Lord Lu Su''s life and death are uncertain."


    Brush!


    Sun CE''s heart sank to the bottom of the valley. His face changed again and again. He said in a deep voice, "what''s the matter?"


    The centurion said quickly: "two days ago, just as the gate was opened, some Qin soldiers disguised as ordinary people came to the gate, killed our soldiers and took control of the gate. Lord Lu Su led the troops to stop, but in the end, there were too many Qin troops. Lord Lu Su had no choice but to withdraw with his troops. Unexpectedly, we were ambushed on the way to the Shuizhai and finally defeated. At that time, the villains were in the middle, so they ran away quickly, but the rest of them didn''t have the chance, so they all fell into the trap. "


    "Fool!"


    Sun CE scolded after hearing this.


    He wanted to kill people in his heart. Before he left, he said that Chaisang might be attacked, so he left the army to guard him. But I didn''t expect that Lu Su was so careless that he didn''t even keep the gate well.


    So that Chaisang fell.


    The failure of a war is not an important thing, but the most important thing is that Chaisang is the gateway to the west of Wu. Now that Chai Sang was lost, Zhang Xiu''s army took root.


    It was not easy to drive out the Qin army.


    Sun CE looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Gongjin, what do you say to do?"


    The expression on Zhou Yu''s face was also dignified. He said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I''m afraid we can''t take back Chaisang. In the current situation, I suggest we retreat to the center of Poyang Lake. "


    "There are also some small islands on Poyang Lake, which are the bases we set up. We will evacuate all of them. As long as Zhang Xiu''s army leaves Chaisang, we will attack Chaisang. "


    "As long as Zhang Xiu''s army does not leave Chaisang, we will confront us on the Poyang Lake. We are not necessarily Zhang Xiu''s opponents in the battle on land. But we will not lose to the Qin army in fighting on the water. "


    Zhou Yu said: "only in this way can we contain the Qin army and make it impossible for the Qin army to relax its vigilance."


    Sun cehan said: "now we can only do this, withdraw it!"


    "Here it is


    Zhou Yu immediately gave the order.


    With the arrangement of Zhou Yu, all the soldiers in the army moved quickly.


    Sun CE''s more than 40000 elites retreated to Poyang Lake.


    This situation was known by the nearby Qin sentinel.


    After the news came back, Zhao Yun immediately arranged for people to call Sima Yi, Zhang song, Zhang Yan and others, saying that sun CE had just arrived at the water village and had retreated to Poyang Lake.


    Zhao Yun said: "Sun CE retreated from the water village. He didn''t know whether he was staying on the Poyang lake or retreating. This is not good for us. After all, our power on the water is almost zero. "


    Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "if it were me, I would surely be stationed on Poyang Lake. On the one hand, it can restrain us. On the other hand, they can attack us at any time. This is a strategy of advancing, attacking and retreating. It''s not easy to attack from the water. "


    This is what Sima Yi has no choice but to do.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier entered and said: "General Zhao, your majesty and his party are about to arrive at Chaisang."


    Before that, Zhao Yun spread the news.


    Zhang Xiu knew the news of seizing Chaisang long ago, so Zhang Xiu went straight to Chaisang.


    Zhao Yun stood up and said, "ladies and gentlemen, follow me to meet your majesty."


    They got up, followed Zhao Yun, quickly left the barracks, and came to the gate of Ximen in Chaisang county. Less than a quarter of an hour later, the team led by Zhang Xiu arrived.


    Zhang Xiu and his party, about thousands of people, arrived, Zhao Yun saluted, and briefly described the capture of Chaisang, also said the situation of Lu Su, then said: "about Lu Su, the last general tried to surrender, but Lu Su refused to surrender, not willing to serve his majesty."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not say more, ordered: "into the city!"


    They entered the city and stationed in the army.


    Zhang Xiu knew the details, knew that sun CE was now stationed on Poyang Lake, and knew that Lu Su would not surrender. Zhang Xiu asks Jia Xu and others about sun CE, but they can''t come up with a plan.I''m not good at it!


    Water war is not good.


    Especially when fighting on the water, the cavalry can''t give full play to it.


    After thinking about it in her heart, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, you immediately send an order to Gan Ning to give the fierce tiger army to Zhang Ya for the time being. Take the people who are good at water warfare in the fierce tiger army and immediately go down to Chaisang."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yueying went to arrange it.


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, can Ganning do it?"


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu replied, "when it comes to the water war, no one dares to be the first in the whole territory of Daqin. Before Gan Ning surrendered to me, he was nicknamed Jinfan thief, and he was a man running across the water. Therefore, if we want to deal with sun CE''s water army, we have to let Gan Ning come. Moreover, Gan Ning is familiar with water warfare and knows the situation of warships, so he was asked to come. "


    Jia Xu nodded and said nothing more.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "for the time being, we will stay in Chaisang and take no action for the time being."


    Everyone agrees.


    After all, the first thing at present is to solve the water war. If the problem of water war is not solved, it is impossible to defeat sun CE. It is not easy to eliminate sun CE just because he is entrenched in Poyang Lake.


    Everything is arranged properly, Zhang Xiu waved the people to retreat, but it is arranged to call Lu su. Today''s Lu Su, although sun CE''s reliance, but in fact, Lu Su has not really come to the fore.


    After all, there are Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zhen in the civil service, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other veteran generals in the military, as well as Zhou Yu, a man with both civil and military skills. Therefore, even if Lu Su has outstanding intelligence, he can''t take the lead.


    In history, sun CE died early, so did Zhou Yu. Just in this way, Lu Su became the governor of Dadu.


    Unfortunately, Lu Su''s life was not long.


    Zhang Xiu saw Lu Su who entered, waved his hand and said, "sit down!"


    "Thank you, Emperor Qin!"


    Lu Su said thanks and sat down calmly.


    Looking at Zhang Xiu sitting in the throne, he said: "if the emperor of Qin wants to surrender, then it''s unnecessary. I''m a minister of the state of Wu. Now he is captured by the Qin emperor. If the Qin emperor wants to kill him, Lu Su is willing to kill him. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "you are really stubborn. Before, my younger martial brother Zhao Yun wanted to recruit you. But, in the end, you refused. Now, I haven''t opened my mouth, and you just refuse. In fact, I am in a dilemma between admitting you and not admitting you. I have some hesitation in my heart. "


    Lu Su said, "why is the Emperor Qin redundant?"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "you Lu Su is a talented person. If you don''t surrender, it''s a pity. On the other hand, you Lu Su are sun CE''s confidant and minister. If I use you, it will be much easier for me to deal with sun CE. "


    "But by doing so, your talent is buried."


    "So I''m in a dilemma."


    "You are not willing to surrender. Hum, have you ever thought that sun CE would have a very difficult choice if he didn''t surrender and be used by me. Did he save you, or did he not? "


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there was a light and confidence.


    Lu Su said, "what are you going to do?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not what I want to do, but what you choose. Now, I''ll give you another choice. Are you submissive or not

 Chapter 977

    Lu Su''s heart sank.


    Zhang Xiu said that if he did not surrender, he would be used by Zhang Xiu, which would embarrass sun CE. Although Lu Su was in the state of Wu, he also heard about Zhang Xiu''s use of hostages. For example, Cao Cao''s General Yu Jin once fell into Zhang Xiu''s hands.


    For example, Yuan Tan, the son of Yuan Shao, once fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu. For example, Ma Teng, Ma Chao''s father, was once taken hostage by Zhang Xiu. There are countless such things. All of them were once taken hostage by Zhang Xiu and then used by Zhang Xiu.


    Lu Su can think that once he falls into the hands of Zhang Xiu, he does not submit to Zhang Xiu, then sun CE is bound to fall into a dilemma. If he is subordinate to Zhang Xiu, as a minister of Zhang Xiu, he will not be used by Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu should consider his feelings.


    On the one hand, it is personal honor and disgrace.


    On the one hand, it is sun CE''s interests.


    It''s hard to choose.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu continued: "the choice depends on you. Lu Su, I''ll give you a quarter of an hour to think about it. I expect that a quarter of an hour will be enough for you to make a decision. "


    Lu Su''s cheek twitched slightly.


    His face was full of embarrassment, and he didn''t know how to choose for a moment.


    When he met Zhao Yun, he just didn''t surrender.


    Originally thought met Zhang Xiu, he also insisted that he did not surrender. But he didn''t expect that in a twinkling of an eye, it was not that Zhang Xiu was hard to choose, but that he was in a dilemma.


    That''s the price of living.


    If he dies, it''s all over, but he''s still alive.


    Time goes by little.


    Although it was March, Lu Su''s forehead was full of sweat. His hands were clenched on his knees, his brows were locked, and his heart was tangled.


    After a long time, Lu Su sighed and relaxed.


    In that eye, but flashed the face of determination.


    Zhang Xiu reminded: "Lu Su, it''s your turn to make a decision."


    "I''m willing to come down!"


    Lu Su is facing Zhang Xiu and answers calmly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you choose to surrender. I believe you. I will use you now that you are obedient. I believe in your choice. "


    "Thank you


    Lu Su bowed to thank him.


    Zhang Xiu immediately called Wang Yue and asked him to arrange Lu Su''s residence. Although he removed the surveillance of Lu Su and allowed him to walk around the barracks, in fact, Lu Su could not leave the barracks.


    In fact, Lu Su didn''t want to leave the barracks. He sat cross legged in his own barracks, and his face gradually sank.


    Previously, Lu Su agreed to surrender.


    In fact, it''s false.


    It is deliberately to stabilize Zhang Xiu, because the situation at that time, once he refuses Zhang Xiu''s solicitation, Zhang Xiu will certainly detain him. At that time, he can''t survive, he can''t even survive.


    If he pretends to surrender, he still has a choice. Of course, the choice is suicide.


    Lu Su raised his pen, spread out a piece of rice paper, dipped his brush in ink, and lifted it in the air, but he didn''t finish it for a long time.


    He has a million words to say in his heart.


    But when it came to him, he found it difficult to write and didn''t know what to say.


    He was ashamed of his respect for sun CE.


    I''m even more ashamed of my good friend Zhou Yu.


    After pondering for a long time, Lu Su wrote four words first!


    After writing the four words, Lu Su took out his sword. After his surrender, his sword and supplies have been returned to him. Lu Su held the handle of the sword in his hand. With a clang sound, the long sword came out of its sheath, and the sharp blade was dazzling.


    Lu Su''s fingers flicked and the blade hummed.


    "Go, go!"


    Lu Su sighed and looked at the top of the camp as if he had seen through time and space, landed on the island on Poyang Lake and saw Zhou Yu and others stationed there.


    "Gong Jin, see you in the afterlife!"


    "Your Highness, Lu Su will serve you in the afterlife. Lu Su will go first."


    Lu Su muttered to himself.


    As soon as he made a force in his hand, the blade passed his neck in an instant. The blood spattered and the sword fell. Lu Su sat upright. The next moment, he staggered twice, and his whole body fell on his side.


    Deep in his eyes, he felt guilty.


    He felt guilty that he didn''t keep Chaisang, so that the state of Wu fell into a passive position. If he closed the door of the ship from beginning to end, even if Chaisang was attacked, he would not be able to take it down for a while.


    "Plop!"


    Lu Su''s body fell to the ground with a plop, gurgling with blood. A moment later, a pool of blood was formed at the position of his neck, and Lu Su''s breath had lost his breath.


    When the voice came out, the soldiers outside the camp heard two voices one after another, and quickly entered the camp. As soon as the soldiers saw Lu Su''s suicide, they were so frightened that they rushed out and reported the news of Lu Su''s suicide.Soon, Zhang Xiu got the news.


    Zhang Xiu came to the tent, looking at Lu Su, who was dead in the pool of blood, sighed.


    What a pity!


    Lu Su is a very powerful man.


    With strategic vision and heart, if such a person is in the state of Qin, he will be brilliant in the future. But now, he committed suicide in order to choose to be loyal to sun CE.


    In particular, Lu Su committed suicide by pretending to surrender. Zhang Xiu doesn''t have to guess. She knows that the reason why Lu Su is so worried is that if he says he won''t surrender, he will be restrained, so that he can''t commit suicide.


    This is Lu Su''s intention.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, waved his hand and said: "prepare the coffin, bury Lu Su, and then spread the news."


    "Here it is


    When Wang Yue got the order, he immediately arranged for someone to handle Lu Su''s follow-up affairs.


    But Jia Xu followed him, his eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, saying: "Your Majesty, although Lu Su is dead. But in fact, the dead have their own uses. If we make good use of it, we can also use Lu Su to deal with sun CE. "


    "Death is great!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Lu Su is dead. The dead are the greatest. Although Lu Su can be used, in fact, its use is limited. What''s more, Daqin can defeat Sunce without relying on a dead man. I appreciate that people like Lu Su would rather die than surrender. Unfortunately, he''s with the wrong person. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Now that Zhang Xiu has made a decision, Jia Xu doesn''t say much. He is just a counselor, only responsible for making suggestions. As for the final decision, it is Zhang Xiu''s business.


    Zhang Xiu with people, then turned away.


    Far away in the depths of Poyang Lake, on an island.


    This is the base where Wu troops are stationed.


    In fact, there are some islands around the island, on which some Wu troops are stationed, complimenting sun CE''s troops. On the island, there is a house.


    Today, Zhou Yu is taking a nap.


    He slept in the afternoon, but he was still sleeping, a little confused.


    In his sleep, he dreamt that Lu Su was coming to him. Lu Su stood in front of him and bowed to him to apologize. He said that he didn''t hold Chaisang, and he said that he would go first. After Lu Su said that he would go first, he was already bloody.


    In a flash, Zhou Yu woke up with a start.


    When Zhou Yu woke up, he was sweating. He opened his bedding and breathed heavily. In his eyes, he was worried about Lu Su''s safety.


    "Zijing, if you keep the Castle Peak, you will not worry about firewood. As long as you live, you will have a chance. I believe you are loyal to your highness. I would rather you surrender to Zhang Xiu for a while than die! "


    Zhou Yu murmured to himself.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the voice of a soldier outside the camp came: "governor of Dadu, the king of Wu said that important news has been sent back. Please go to the Council immediately."


    "I see!"


    Zhou Yu gave an answer, got up and put on his jacket. Then he hurried to sun CE''s room. But Zhou Yu''s heart, thinking about Lu Su''s affairs, could not calm down.

 Chapter 978

    Zhou Yu came to sun CE''s room in a hurry. When he saw sun CE''s face as gray as death, he felt sad. His heart sank and his face was very nervous.


    Is something really wrong with Lu Su?


    Zhou Yu gulped down his saliva and asked, "Bo Fu, but what happened to Zi Jing?"


    Bofu is sun CE''s character.


    When sun CE was called queen and Zhou Yu never called sun CE, he always called her royal highness or King Wu. As a matter of fact, when it comes to the relationship, he and sun CE are brothers of friendship, so it''s not bad to address and express words. However, Zhou Yu knew that his status was different. Today, sun CE is king of Wu, and after sun CE became emperor, it is even different.


    Sun CE said dejectedly: "Zijing is dead!"


    Boom!!


    Zhou Yu''s mind was like thunder, and his eyes were blank.


    Kick! Kick!!


    Zhou Yu retreated uncontrollably, and his body faltered. After retreating three steps, he could no longer keep his body steady. He collapsed to the ground, and his face was still in a state of absence.


    "How can it be? How can Zijing die?"


    Zhou Yu murmured to himself, his face full of grief. He and Lu Su are close friends. They met at an early age, and they have been friends for more than ten years. But now Lu Su is dead.


    Immersed in grief, Zhou Yu said, "earlier on, I fell asleep. In my dream, I saw Zijing. He said to go first. I didn''t expect that Zijing was dead."


    "When Zijing died, I lost a good friend!"


    Zhou Yu was very sad.


    Sun CE was also dispirited and said, "Zijing''s death is also a great loss to the state of Wu, and I am even more damaged. In the state of Wu, countless people were frightened to see Zhang Xiu killed. They were afraid to fight and wanted to compromise. But Zijing urged Zhan. Zijing died, and I lost one of my confidants. "


    Both of them are very sad.


    After all, Lu Su''s death was a great blow to both Zhou Yu and sun CE.


    After half a sound, Zhou Yu came back to his senses, staggered to his feet, went to the seat, sat down, looked at Sun CE and said, "Your Highness, how did Zi Jing die. It''s been so many days since I heard from Zijing. "


    Sun CE said: "when the news came out, Zijing had been detained in the army. After Zhang Xiu arrived, Zijing was interrogated and asked if Zijing was willing to surrender. If Zijing doesn''t come down, he will take advantage of Zijing to deal with me. At that time, Zijing agreed. When he got back to the camp, he got the sword and committed suicide. He didn''t want to surrender, but he worried that it would affect me, so he pretended to surrender and then committed suicide. "


    At this point, sun CE was again distressed.


    Lu Su was so loyal, but now he committed suicide.


    As a matter of fact, when the royal guards delivered the news, they did not conceal the information and publicized all Lu Su''s affairs according to Zhang Xiu''s instructions, in order to increase Lu Su''s weight in sun CE''s mind and stimulate sun CE.


    This is to motivate sun CE.


    When such a loyal minister died, would you, sun CE, just sit back and ignore him, even refuse to fart?


    Zhang Xiu wants sun CE to send troops.


    If sun CE sent troops, Zhang Xiu could fight with sun CE on the shore, so she would not fight with sun CE on the water. Of course, even if sun CE continued to stay on the Poyang Lake, it had no influence on Zhang Xiu.


    After hearing this, Zhou Yu was also heartbroken. He was extremely angry and said, "Zhang Xiu really should be killed. When he was in Lujiang County, he calculated on us. Now, Zijing is forced to die. If Zhang Xiu is not killed, he will never give up. "


    "Yes, if you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, you will never stop!"


    Sun Ceng stood up and said: "Gongjin, we have been on the Poyang Lake all day, and we have never been to attack Zhang Xiu. I don''t want to wait any longer. I''m going to lead the troops to log into Chaisang quietly and prepare to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "No, your highness


    Zhou Yu''s brows rose.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu, but not now. Even though Zhou Yu was full of anger, his reason was clear.


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, the reason why Zhang Xiu spread the news of Zijing is that he wanted to motivate your highness and urge you to lead your troops to attack. In this way, Zhang Xiu can fight with us without any effort. Now we are stationed on the Poyang Lake, and Zhang Xiu''s navy is too weak to fight on the water. So even if he wants to kill us, he has no chance. If you come up now, you''re sending it to the door yourself. "


    Sun CE said: "but how can we avenge our son? Is Zhang Xiu allowed to be arrogant? "


    Zhou Yu solemnly said, "wait!"


    Sun CE said, "what are you waiting for?"


    Zhou Yu said: "when Zhang Xiu attacks us by water, since Zhang Xiu has entered Chaisang County, he can''t easily withdraw. So now, Zhang Xiu must attack us. When he can''t help it, he will attack by water. At that time, it''s our chance to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Zhou Yu said, "Your Highness, we should be clear that our strength on water is far greater than that on land. It is the last thing to attack the other''s strong points with one''s own short points. If your highness loses his mind because of Zijing''s affairs, I''m even more sorry for Zijing''s suicide. We want to take revenge for our son, but we don''t want to take revenge in a daze. "Sun CE was so angry that he paced back and forth.


    He was not willing to wait.


    He wants to fight Zhang Xiu, but the problem is that he also knows that Zhou Yu''s words are reasonable.


    Zhou Yu continued: "Your Highness, the battlefield is like this. We need to wait for the opportunity. There is no need for us to start the war in a hurry and keep all our hatred in mind. When Zhang Xiu comes to kill us, we will kill her back and take revenge. "


    "I know!"


    Sun CE clenched his fist, and his hand fell on his sword. In an instant, his sword came out of its sheath. He cut off a corner of the table in front of him and said, "if you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, you will never stop!"


    His highness said, "what did you say?"


    Sun CE continued: "Gongjin, how long do you expect us to wait now?"


    Zhou Yu thought about it and replied, "actually, according to my estimation, it won''t take long. The reason is very simple, Zhang Xiu also opened up a battlefield in the north, whether it is Wei, or Jin, and Zhang Xiu are enemies. But Zhang Xiu, have never killed each other, so we now, waiting is. According to my prediction, at most in a month or two, Zhang Xiu will definitely send troops. "


    "Then wait!"


    Sun CE took a deep breath and said, "Gongjin, find a suit of clothes Zijing used to wear and set up a burial mound for Zijing on Poyang Lake Island for our memorial service."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Yu answered and turned to arrange.


    Sun CE sat alone in the room, looking through the latest news. Today''s news is all about Chaisang county. After Zhang Xiu took charge of Chaisang County, she has grasped the ferry and the main important road in Chaisang county.


    Ensure control of Chaisang.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu''s military supplies and weapons also came in an endless stream.


    It is obvious that Zhang Xiu wants to fight.


    However, sun CE can''t interfere in all this. Now he can only wait for the opportunity.

 Chapter 979

    The vast Yangtze River is endless.


    A warship is heading east along the vast Yangtze River.


    On the deck of the warship stood a burly general, who was no other than Gan Ning, who had gone south from the battle field of the state of Wei. He looked at the rippling river with a look of expectation on his face.


    He is good at fighting on the road, but what he is good at most is water war. Even in the Yangtze River, where the current is quite fast, he is white in the waves and can come and go freely in the water.


    The same is true of Jinfan Erlang under his command.


    Up to now, the number of Jinfan veterans under Ganning''s command has weakened a lot. Many of them have died in the war. Up to now, there are only more than 200 people left. These more than 200 former Jinfan Erlang are all generals in the fierce tiger army. The worst ones are all generals, and the highest ones have reached the position of partial generals.


    A group of people followed Ganning with high morale.


    Fighting on water is their old business.


    It''s their favorite.


    Gan Ning went south this time. After he entered Jiangxia County, he didn''t leave in a hurry. Instead, he recruited a lot of shipbuilding craftsmen in Jiangxia and took them to Chaisang.


    Gan Ning didn''t go to the Poyang Lake to Chaisang, because there are sun CE''s sentinels all over the Poyang Lake. If you don''t pay attention, you may meet sun CE''s water army. Once you meet him, he is now invincible.


    After all, there are not enough warships and water troops.


    Its combat effectiveness is insufficient.


    When Ganning got close to Chaisang, he landed at the ferry and went south with his Jinfan Erlang and other craftsmen. At the beginning of April, Ganning arrived in Chaisang county and went to the city to meet Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Gan Ning coming, she also showed a smile on her face and said, "Xing Ba, you are here. Without you, I would have no backbone to fight with sun CE. When you come, you have the confidence. "


    Ganning said, "Your Majesty, I praise you!"


    After a pause, Gan Ning said, "if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Now we are going to fight against sun CE''s water army. The first is to drill the water army, and the second is to make warships. The training of the water army only needs to be carried out in the water stronghold. As for the making of warships, the last general has brought craftsmen from Jiangxia, and many of the people under the command of the last general can also make warships. They will make boats quickly so that they can fight against sun CE. "


    "Very good!"


    With a look of approval on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "now I have surrounded the water village by the ferry. Now our army can go to the water stronghold to garrison. Although we can''t fight with sun CE on the Poyang Lake for the time being, the water village is safe, and sun CE doesn''t dare to come. "


    Gan Ning said, "it''s not too late. I''ll go right away."


    Zhang Xiu said: "let''s go. I''m ready to move my army to Shuizhai. You''re here, and it''s just the right time. "


    Today, the magistrate of Chaisang county has been changed.


    It''s already under the control of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, in particular, is also in the water village, so she doesn''t worry about what''s wrong with Chaisang. Especially when Zhang Xiu''s army moved, all the military supplies and equipment in Chaisang city were taken away, so even if there was something wrong with Chaisang County, Zhang Xiu was not worried.


    After the army moved to Shuizhai, the army was still stationed, but Ganning was busy. He assigned soldiers to cut down trees, transported some wood prepared earlier, and prepared to make ships.


    However, when Ganning was busy, Zhang Xiu went to the place where the ships were made to check one side.


    At this time, the ships were all inland ships.


    They were all driven on Hu Po of rivers, and they didn''t make the keel of ships, or there is no keel now. The keel of a warship is mainly used for navigation at sea. It is necessary to deal with the wind and waves at sea before the appearance of the keel. Because of the appearance of the keel of the ship, the whole ship can carry more waves and draught, and has stronger resistance.


    Zhang Xiu also had some idea about the keel of a ship.


    He went straight back to the camp, quickly picked up the pen and ink, sketched the shape of the ship''s keel, and then wrote all the details of Yiying, even the side bones of the ship''s keel.


    After explaining everything clearly, Zhang Xiu called Ganning, gave Ganning the manufacturing drawing of keel frame, and said: "xingba, all warships can''t be simply spliced. This is the keel of warships. You arrange the craftsmen to make warships based on the keel, and then make warships again."


    Keel?


    Ganning has some doubts.


    He was also familiar with warships. He could even make them himself, but he never heard of keels. Now hear Zhang Xiu''s words, so confused, just instinctively took the book, and then quickly read.


    As a knowledgeable person, as soon as Zhang Xiu''s manufacturing flow chart came out, Gan Ning drew inferences from one instance, saw the advantages of keel, and exclaimed: "Your Majesty, this warship keel is really not simple. Your majesty, if our warship once collided with sun CE''s warship, both sides fell apart and fell into the water, but with this keel, our warship can even directly collide. ""The existence of the keel is a sharp weapon. It can not only increase the warship''s ability to fight against the wind and waves, but also enable the warship to constantly fight. It''s like a carriage, which can also fight directly on the battlefield. "


    Speaking of this, Gan Ning clasped his fists with both hands and said: "my emperor is holy and bright!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "flattery is not necessary. Shipbuilding is carried out according to the keel. But remember, the news of our large-scale construction of warships can spread. However, the news that our warship has a keel must be kept secret. Anyone who wants to spread the news will be killed! This warship is our weapon against sun CE. "


    Gan Ning said, "I understand your humble position."


    As a knowledgeable person, Gan Ning knows the importance of it.


    It''s like a flying ball.


    The enemy didn''t have it, but if Qin had it, it would have the possibility of winning by surprise.


    Now the keel is the same.


    After equipped with the keel, all the warships of the Qin army can come and go like the wind on the Poyang Lake, and even meet sun CE''s water army. When the two sides fight, they can directly bump into each other, not afraid of sun CE''s warships.


    This is the advantage!


    Is also the key to win!


    He left the book as quickly as he could. As soon as he arrived at the dock where the warships were made, he quickly called together the main shipbuilders and told them all about the keel assembly of the warships. At the beginning, the craftsmen didn''t know the keel. They heard that the keel would be the foundation, but they didn''t know why.


    When I saw the figure, my eyes brightened and I was amazed.


    They are all old craftsmen all year round.


    Know the weakness of the warship, also know what the warship lacks. Today, the appearance of the keel is equivalent to the assembly of a skeleton for a warship. Only when people have a skeleton can they really be called a warship.


    The chief craftsman said with admiration, "general Gan is so wise. I didn''t expect that he could even think of such wonderful ideas. It''s really admirable."


    Gan Ning waved his hand and said, "don''t praise me. I didn''t think of it. It was your majesty. Your majesty, get everything ready and give it to me. "


    "Your Majesty is even holy!"


    The craftsman flattered again, but he looked at the keel in the picture with a gentle look.


    The eyes, as if to look at lovers.


    Gan Ning looked around the crowd and said, "it''s about our battle with the water army of the state of Wu. Now there is the appearance of the keel, which is responsible for the keel and the subsequent process. Now it''s April, and I''ll give you only three months to build hundreds of warships. "


    "Don''t worry, general Gan, and promise to finish the task!"


    The first craftsman spoke again.


    They have so many people. Three months is quite enough. Even they can make the warship more reliable and ensure its combat effectiveness.

 Chapter 980

    In the center of Poyang Lake, on a small island.


    Sun CE was stationed here. He had just received a batch of military provisions, which were sent from Wuxian County by water, and then transported directly along the Yangtze River to Poyang Lake to the island.


    In addition, sun CE also arranged for soldiers to farm on the island, at least to be self-sufficient, so as to alleviate the vacancy of some food and vegetables and ensure adequate food supply.


    On this day, sun CE went to Lu Su''s Tomb of clothes and crowns, held a memorial ceremony, then walked around the island with a fist, and then returned to the barracks.


    In the barracks, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others are training.


    Although there is no war now, it is essential to train soldiers, which has always been going on. Otherwise, once the soldiers relax, they will not adapt when they fight again.


    Only by training all the time can we maintain the combat effectiveness of the army and ensure the exuberance of the fighting will.


    While sun CE was wandering around, Zhou Yu came in a hurry. When sun CE saw Zhou Yu, he said, "Gong Jin, you look like you are in a hurry. You look happy again. Why, is there some good news coming?"


    Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Your Highness is wise!"


    Sun CE said: "is it Zhang Xiu who sent troops?"


    Zhou Yu said: "it''s not that Zhang Xiu sent troops, but just received the news from the outpost outside the Poyang Lake water stronghold. Zhang Xiu mobilized Gan Ning, the chief General of the fierce tiger army, to go south to take charge of the training of the water army."


    "At the same time, large-scale logging and transportation of wood have been started, and warships have been built. Zhang Xiu''s action is obviously due to the lack of warships. She has to prepare to build warships to fight with us. "


    "What I laugh at is that Zhang Xiu is really naive to try to defeat us on the Poyang Lake when she is so ready to drill soldiers."


    Zhou Yu said: "if we are on land, we are in a weak position, but now Zhang Xiu wants to attack each other''s strong points with her own short points. If she wants to wrestle with us on the water, she is looking for death."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Sun CE couldn''t help laughing when he heard that.


    Laughter, full of joy.


    Fighting on water has always been sun CE''s proudest, and it is also the basis of Jiangdong''s survival. If Zhang Xiu can defeat the water army of Wu state on the water, how can Wu state fight with Zhang Xiu?


    Sun CE asked: "what else does Zhang Xiu do?"


    Zhou Yu said: "there is also news that Zhang Xiu openly announced that she would build hundreds of warships in three months, and then drive them to attack us and destroy us in three or four months."


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    When sun CE heard this, he was even more disdainful and sarcastic.


    In fact, the time to attack sun CE was after Gan Ning thought about it and despised Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu finally let Wang Yue pass it on. This is to let Sun CE know, and also let Sun CE think that Zhang Xiu is beyond her ability.


    Sun CE''s eyes narrowed and said: "Zhang Xiu rose in Nanyang. Over the years, she has never been defeated. But for us, this is an opportunity to defeat Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Xiu is self righteous. She thinks she is an ever victorious general and invincible."


    "But he forgot that the battle was on water, not on land. Not only to have high morale and fighting spirit, but also to have enough skills. A man who is arrogant must be doomed in the end. "


    Sun CE clenched his fist and said, "we are bound to win this battle."


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness said that, especially after the defeat of the battle on the water, it is not like a good evacuation on land. As long as you escape fast on land, you can evacuate quickly. But after the defeat on the water, our warships surrounded Zhang Xiu''s warships, and there was no doubt that Zhang Xiu would be defeated. There is no suspense about this war. In this war, we must have won a great victory. "


    At this point, Zhou Yu turned to the direction of Lu Su''s tomb and said, "Zi Jing, you wait. I will defeat Zhang Xiu and cut off her head in honor of you."


    Sun CE clenched his fist and said, "let''s go to the barracks. This good news is to let all the soldiers know, to let all the soldiers know, Zhang Xiu is too much


    He took Zhou Yu and went straight to the barracks.


    As soon as he entered the barracks, sun CE ordered to drum and gather all the soldiers to the school yard.


    More than 40000 Wu elite, all set.


    A pair of eyes, fell on Sun CE''s body, the truth is Wu up and down, in the face of Zhang Xiu''s killing, in fact, the heart is a little uneasy, after all, Zhang Xiu is invincible, even Cao Cao died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, even Yuan Shao are defeated, can Wu resist?


    Sun CE looked around at all the soldiers and said in a loud voice, "my sons, I just got a piece of news. Now, Zhang Xiu has built a large-scale warship in Chaisang''s water stronghold, and has made bold words to attack us in three or four months. "


    "Zhang Xiu is so arrogant!"


    "If it''s fighting on land, Zhang Xiu''s mighty army will come. We all have to be afraid of three points and dare not take advantage of it. After all, Zhang Xiu''s strength is well known.""But Zhang Xiu is stupid."


    "Now he has abandoned his advantages on land and the strength of his horses, and wants to fight us on water. As you know, Zhang Xiu is only now beginning to practice the water army and let the soldiers fight in the water stronghold and get familiar with the water war. "


    Sun CE''s voice became more and more intense, and he said: "a water army of the state of Qin, who has not formed combat effectiveness, has a delusion to defeat our water army of the state of Wu for many years. Do you think Zhang Xiu is arrogant or stupid?"


    Many people laughed at this.


    One by one, the soldiers of the state of Wu were a little frightened, but at this time, they stabilized. The reason is very simple. They want to fight Zhang Xiu''s army on the water, which is their strength.


    The water army of the state of Wu is all over the world.


    There is no army that can compete with the water army of Wu state.


    This is the strength of every soldier in the state of Wu. After sun CE''s words, all the soldiers look forward to the coming of war.


    Sun CE saw that the soldiers were excited, and each soldier began to laugh with a smile on his face. He did not interrupt the soldiers, but let them continue to talk. After a long time, he raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet.


    Sun CE once again said, "sons, this is our chance. If Zhang Xiu fights on the land, the king doesn''t have much confidence. But now, it''s fighting on the Poyang Lake. Our soldiers in the state of Wu have to teach Zhang Xiu to let him know that our sons and daughters in the state of Wu are all dragons on the water, and all of them are white. Now that Zhang Xiu is here, she is suicidal. "


    "Kill yourself!"


    Huang Gai, standing in the army, was also shouting.


    "Kill yourself!"


    "Kill yourself!"


    ¡­¡­


    The soldiers of Wu state were very excited. In their hearts, they no longer have any worries. Instead, they are looking forward to the coming of the war, because this war is their chance and they want to win.


    When sun CE looked at the fighting soldiers, he was also relieved. During this period of time, he watched the soldiers training. Although the soldiers'' fighting spirit was good, it was just so, and it was not strong enough.


    Now, morale is completely on the rise.


    All the soldiers were fighting and looking forward to it.


    Only in this way can the morale of the army be used.


    Only in this way can we fight against Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 981

    Time flies. In a twinkling of an eye, it''s the end of June.


    It''s getting hot.


    After a long time in the hot water, I can get rid of the heat. It''s by the lake, after all. It''s not so hot.


    On this day, Gan Ning rushed to the Chinese army tent in Shuizhai. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he hugged his fist and said, "Your Majesty, the craftsmen in the army have finished building ships. Up to now, 200 warships have been built, each of which can hold up to 800 people. All the warships have been put into the water for testing and are able to sail normally. "


    After a pause, Gan Ning said: "the general has specially found an ordinary warship to collide with the warship made on the basis of keel. The new warship is not damaged at all, but the ordinary warship collapses. Of course, all of sun CE''s warships must be more powerful, but even so, when our new warships meet their warships, they are sure to win. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed approval.


    After a few months, it finally became.


    Zhang Xiu attached great importance to the battle of Poyang Lake. Only when this war is won, can Zhang Xiu completely remove the obstacles that sweep the world.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "let the soldiers in the army board the ship separately, and then adapt to the time of ten days. Ten days later, we sent troops to attack sun CE in Poyang Lake. With sun CE''s pride, as soon as we go out to fight, sun CE will come out with the warship. At that time, on the Poyang Lake, sun CE will be caught off guard. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    He turned and stepped down, and then went to dispatch the soldiers under his command, and let all the soldiers on board for training.


    For soldiers in the army who have been training for several months, relatively speaking, this is not particularly difficult. The most important point is that the shock on the Poyang Lake is actually smaller than that on the Yangtze River, let alone on a par with that on the sea. Therefore, such a shock does not have much impact.


    Moreover, many of Huang Zhong''s flying bear soldiers were recruited in Jingzhou, and many of them knew how to swim. Therefore, it was not difficult for the soldiers.


    The three armies of the feiqiang army, the Feixiong army, and the Heishan army, including Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong.


    Today''s military strength is close to 100000.


    The strength of this force, if it is fighting on land, is enough to destroy the Wu army. That is to say, sun CE had the courage to fight on the Poyang Lake.


    Ten days is fleeting.


    In July, although the weather is still hot, it''s near the beginning of autumn, especially near the water, but it doesn''t feel hot at the end of June. On this day, the whole water village has already heard the rumble of war drums.


    The drums are rumbling and surging.


    All the soldiers in the army have assembled.


    However, even if Zhang Xiu went to war this time, she left 10000 elite garrisons in the water village to ensure the safety of the water village.


    This is now the rear of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was standing in the school yard. He looked at the troops in the array, looked around all the people, and said in a loud voice: "sons, today''s war is to defeat sun CE and start the war of destroying the state of Wu. In this battle, Daqin will win! "


    "The great Qin will win!"


    Huang Zhong exclaimed, looking excited.


    "The great Qin will win!"


    "The great Qin will win!"


    Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan and others also called out. All the soldiers around were extremely excited. For the officers and men of the state of Qin, the destruction of the state of Wu is not far away from the unification of the great Qin.


    The vast cry, one after another.


    Countless people are shouting.


    The voice was loud and clear.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "let''s go!"


    With an order, the soldiers already arranged by the army quickly left the school yard, went to the water village, and boarded warships along the wooden ladder. Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu, Sima Yi, Zhang song, Wang Yue and others also began to board the flagship.


    This flagship is magnificent.


    The Dragon flag, which represents the great Qin Dynasty, is constantly fluttering, and there are warships around.


    All the warships defend the most central flagship.


    Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Zhang Yan, a Guli, Zhao Yun and others are also on their respective warships, because everyone has the command over the soldiers and has to command the next battle.


    "Woo! Woo


    The horn reverberated in the water village. With the order, all the warships began to sail out of Poyang Lake. On each warship, not only are there soldiers, but the rest of the water and grain are well prepared to ensure that there is no shortage of soldiers'' food.


    After Zhang Xiu''s warships sailed out of the water village, the news also spread quickly.


    When the news reached the island in the center of Poyang Lake, sun CE was very excited. He quickly put on his armor and let people ring the battle drum to gather all the soldiers in the army.


    Sun CE came to the school yard, and now Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others have gathered.Everyone''s fighting.


    Zhou Yu also arrived, his eyes projected a look of expectation, because he had been waiting for the war for a long time. More than three months later, Zhang Xiu finally came.


    Zhang Xiu wants to compete with the water army in Jiangdong by virtue of the water army that she has trained for more than three months. Zhou Yu doesn''t think that she can win. Even though Zhang Xiu has many troops and many warships, the battle on the water of Poyang Lake can''t be won by many troops. In the end, it depends on the combat effectiveness on the water, which is the most important thing.


    Sun CE looked around at all the soldiers. At the moment, all the soldiers of Wu state were ready for the first world war with high morale.


    Everyone is looking forward to the war.


    Everyone is looking forward to winning.


    Sun celang said: "sons, just received the news from the front, Zhang Xiu sent out troops. Zhang Xiu, finally sent troops. Zhang Xiu has more than 100000 elites under her command. We are invincible on land. But on Poyang Lake, not to mention 100000 people, even 200000 people, even 300000 people, it''s useless. The water army of Wu Kingdom swept the world. In today''s World War I, we will let all the 100000 elites of Zhang Xiu die at the bottom of the lake. "


    "A few months ago, Lu Su was captured by Zhang Xiu. He surrendered not far away and died of suicide."


    "Today, we pledge to avenge Lu su."


    "It''s today to kill Zhang Xiu!"


    As soon as sun CE thought of Lu Su''s death, his heart was filled with grief. His heart was like a volcano. He completely erupted his emotions and exclaimed, "it''s today to kill Zhang Xiu!"


    "It''s today to kill Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhou Yu tried his best to roar.


    Usually, Zhou Yu is broad-minded and approachable, which makes people admire him. But now, Zhou Yu has a ferocious face, with the smell of killing people.


    It''s all because of Lu su.


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    "Kill Zhang Xiu!"


    More and more soldiers are shouting, more and more generals are shouting, because by now, the morale of the soldiers is fermenting and they are ready for the first World War.


    The morale is at its best.


    After sun CE encouraged his morale, he did not delay any more. He drew out his sword with a clang sound and ordered: "let''s go!"


    At your command, all set out.


    Sun CE''s more than 40000 elites set out in a mighty way. One by one, the soldiers dressed in armor quickly went to the warships. There were about 80 warships under sun CE''s command, and each warship had more than 500 soldiers.


    All 80 warships left the port, avoided the reefs, and then drove fast on the Poyang Lake. Today''s Poyang Lake, the water is clear, can not see the edge at a glance, more can not see to the end, the water level is very deep.


    A warship, constantly moving forward.


    This is the direction to the water village beside Poyang Lake, that is, to the location of Zhang Xiu.


    Both sides are facing each other.

 Chapter 982

    The river is endless.


    On the broad and vast Poyang Lake, it is quiet, just some birds passing by.


    All of a sudden, a warship chopping waves, breaking the silence of Poyang Lake. On this warship, the king''s flag of the Qin Dynasty is flying, and 200 warships are coming.


    On the broad surface of the lake, 200 warships cleaved the waves and moved fast.


    As a matter of fact, Zhang Xiu had sent someone to inquire about the specific location of sun CE before. She only knew a general direction. After all, if she inquired in close range, sun CE would definitely stop her. Therefore, Zhang Xiu''s Qin army could only go in the general direction.


    However, for Zhang Xiu, this is not a big problem. Sun CE can''t sit still when he leads the troops to fight. As long as it''s sun CE who leads the troops out, he will definitely meet him in the end, which is exactly the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Jia Xu stood beside Zhang Xiu and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I have never seen the fighting on the lake before. It''s an eye opener. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this battle will not be anxious."


    If Zhang Xiu''s warships had no keel, they would be more anxious to fight. But when a warship has a keel, it will hit it head-on. This is the crush of strength and technology.


    One step ahead is enough to crush.


    The ship was still moving forward, and it sailed forward for about a quarter of an hour. All of a sudden, the front left-wing direction, came the horn sound, this is the news from Ganning.


    Gan Ning is on the left wing of the fleet, while Huang Zhong is on the right.


    Chen Dao and Zhang Yan are near Zhang Xiu.


    The whole fleet, like a fan, is spread out across the Poyang Lake. After all, the thousands of miles of smoke, enough to make all the warships scattered, so that the warships can thoroughly show their skills.


    Zhang Xiu heard the sound of the horn and looked forward. She saw black lines in the distance ahead. Because of the distance between the two sides, we can''t really see the situation in the distance, but the black line that appeared was obviously sun CE''s fleet.


    The two sides have met.


    Among sun CE''s fleet, 80 big ships were prowling.


    Sun CE stood on the deck in his armor and sword hanging from his waist. His eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "Gongjin, Zhang Xiu''s fleet is ahead. He thinks that if he has one or two hundred warships, he can win. That''s a big mistake. He thinks he is right


    Zhou Yu said: "in this battle, he taught Zhang Xiu a lesson to let him know that the world is not big enough for him to be reckless. He can cross the north, but when he comes to the territory of Wu, even the real dragon has to be kept


    "Drum, full speed ahead!"


    Sun CE gave the order directly, which is his consistent method. In fact, for an old hand like sun CE, he has his own way to deal with the impact, and he knows that the impact is the result of losing both sides.


    But for beginners, it''s different.


    As soon as a novice encounters a fierce collision, he will subconsciously avoid it and turn his direction, which just gives sun ce the opportunity to easily get close to the other side and then quickly log on to the other side''s warship to fight.


    In fact, it''s similar to two people fighting on the battlefield. One rushes forward without fear of death, the other looks after his own life and flinches. Even if they are stronger, they are often killed on the battlefield.


    Because it''s not tough enough!


    Because of the fear of death.


    On the contrary, they will lose.


    The warships of the state of Wu rushed forward fiercely, and their speed was faster and faster.


    This curtain fell in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and a smile came from the corner of his mouth, and a look of disdain showed on his face. Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers under her command to shake the flag, order all the people to go at full speed, and make the warships rush forward regardless of everything.


    More than 200 warships were all scattered. Such a sector completely included sun CE''s fleet. If you look down from the air, Zhang Xiu''s fleet is a large fan-shaped, while sun CE''s fleet is a small fan-shaped, both sides quickly shorten the distance.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the distance difference is less than 100 steps.


    The distance is getting closer.


    Eighty steps!


    Sixty steps!


    At this time, sun CE received the news from the soldiers that Zhang Xiu''s fleet was still going forward, did not stop at all, and did not mean to change direction. If he continued to sprint with all his strength, the two sides would definitely collide.


    "Go ahead, go ahead!"


    Sun CE gave a loud order, shouting: "who will our soldiers be? Zhang Xiu''s soldiers can''t swim. Once we fall into the water, it''s our advantage. Let''s go


    At this point, sun CE can''t step back.


    Once the direction of the warship is changed, the short adjustment time is equal to giving the initiative to Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu''s warships came, his soldiers were in a passive position.


    So sun CE ordered us to continue.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the deck, looking at the warships in front of her, with the same look. Even in one of his warships, the soldiers at the helm all had the same face. They didn''t have any fear. On the contrary, they looked expectant.When they were in the water stronghold, all the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty witnessed the scene of the new warships crashing and destroying the old ones. They knew that their warships were invincible, so they were not afraid.


    All the soldiers, too.


    "Go, go!"


    Ganning can''t wait to get up.


    "Go


    On the other side, Huang Zhong, who is on the right, also began to give orders in a loud voice.


    The warships of the state of Qin continued to march forward.


    The distance between the two sides is getting closer again.


    Thirty steps!


    Twenty steps!


    When the distance between the two sides is less than ten steps, the warships in front of each other will collide with each other in a twinkling of an eye.


    Boom!!!


    When two warships collided with each other, their hulls vibrated endlessly. Although the warships of Qin Kingdom vibrated, because of the existence of keel, the keel could share the impact force and also unload the force, so the hull would not be affected if it vibrated a little.


    However, the warships of the state of Wu lacked the support of the keel. With the fierce impact of the force, the most advanced warships cracked with a click, and the warships collapsed and were askew.


    This scene fell into sun CE''s eyes.


    "How could it be?"


    Sun CE''s eyes widened with an incredible look. It never occurred to him that the warship on which he lived in the state of Wu, the invincible warship, collapsed and could no longer be maintained.


    "Boom! Boom


    More and more warships hit.


    After the collision, without exception, all the warships of the state of Wu collapsed. Even if there were none, they were still wobbly and could not move forward.


    Gudong!


    Sun CE swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked shocked.


    He looked at Zhou Yu and asked, "Gong Jin, how can this embroidered warship be so hard. Our warships are already the most powerful, but they are all defeated in front of Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhou Yu is also a fool.


    Boom!!


    At this time, sun CE''s warship also hit a warship of the Qin army.


    When the two warships collided, their boundless strength swelled, and the Qin warships were not damaged at all. However, sun CE''s flagship, the deck and the side of the ship were cracked, and the warships were tilted and damaged.


    Zhou Yu was also shaky and difficult to stand firm.


    Sun CE grabbed Zhou Yu. He was extremely frightened, but he also gave a loud order: "rush, rush to Zhang Xiu''s warship for me. Rush up and take Zhang Xiu''s warship. "


    With sun CE''s order, the soldiers of the state of Wu responded and began to move quickly. Just waiting for them, is a warship, Qin soldiers spear.


    In this war, all the soldiers of the state of Qin had swords in their waists and spears in their hands.


    This is a specially prepared spear.


    If there is a spear in it, even if the soldiers of the state of Wu come near, one spear can stab and kill the soldiers of the state of Wu.

 Chapter 983

    When the soldiers of the state of Wu, looking at the chaos, rushed to the warships of the Qin army, they were met with a sharp spear.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    The sharp point of the spear penetrated into the soldiers of the state of Wu with no difficulty.


    Blood spattered and screamed one after another.


    One by one, the soldiers of the state of Wu fell down, but more soldiers of the state of Wu continued to rush forward, intending to climb on the warships of the Qin army. Under such a premise, the soldiers of the state of Wu could not stand still and stayed on their own ship. They could only watch the ship silent, so they bit their teeth and rushed forward quickly.


    Rao is so, but no one can rush up.


    Qin''s defense was extremely solid.


    Big guns build a forest of death. All the soldiers of the state of Wu were killed one after another, and no one could break through. This curtain fell in Zhou Yu''s eyes, and he also frowned.


    Zhou Yu, as the head of Wu''s culture and military, has always been in the same mood when Mount Tai collapses. But now, he is extremely nervous and says in a loud voice: "Your Highness, take out the boat before the warship collapses. We will retreat immediately when the situation is chaotic. If we don''t retreat, we''ll all die. Zhang Xiu''s warship has the advantage, we have no defense, this battle is defeated. "


    Sun CE was on the side. He had called for the soldiers to attack. Now hearing Zhou Yu''s words, he sighed in his heart and immediately ordered his bodyguards to act quickly.


    After a while, sun CE and Zhou Yu quietly got out of the boat and asked the guards to speed up their rowing and leave quickly. Because the battlefield is in chaos and the situation on Poyang Lake is turbulent, no one pays attention to them for a while.


    Now, it''s all about fighting Wu soldiers.


    The fighting on the river lasted about half an hour.


    The warships of the state of Wu have sunk. The body of a soldier from the state of Wu was floating on the river. Countless people were killed. There were also countless corpses on the warships of the Qin army, as well as countless captured soldiers of the state of Wu.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for soldiers to salvage the dead bodies of Wu soldiers on Poyang Lake, and then went down again.


    All the way to Sunce''s stronghold on Poyang Lake.


    When Zhang Xiu went to sun CE''s stronghold in Poyang Lake, sun CE went back to the stronghold first. Fortunately, the place where the war started was not too far away from the island where they were stationed. In less than half an hour, sun CE and Zhou Yu returned to the island with their soldiers.


    Now there are only 800 soldiers around Sun CE.


    All by boat.


    When sun CE retreated, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and others took boats to retreat one after another, but Huang Gai had no trace. Sun CE looked at the soldiers in front of him, his face full of grief.


    There are more than 40000 soldiers under his command, and now there are less than 1000 left. The loss is too great.


    The Poyang Lake Water War buried the most elite troops of the state of Wu.


    Sun CE felt extremely remorseful.


    When Zhou Yu saw sun CE''s appearance, he was helpless. Because he did not expect that the warships made by Zhang Xiu were so powerful that they easily smashed and crushed the warships of the state of Wu.


    Zhou Yu felt sorry, but he picked up his spirit and calmly analyzed: "Your Highness, this is the end of the matter. It''s useless to regret and blame yourself. At present, we have very important things to deal with. "


    "The next step is to retreat."


    "With the help of the forces of Danyang County, we will temporarily turn around with Zhang Xiu and strive to block Zhang Xiu''s army."


    Zhou Yu put forward the suggestion and continued: "in the case of losing troops at the expense of generals, we can''t stop Zhang Xiu from crossing Poyang Lake. We can only evacuate eastward quickly. If we don''t grasp the time left, even Danyang county can''t keep it. "


    After hearing this, sun CE nodded solemnly.


    Now that''s the only way.


    There is no other choice.


    Sun CE quickly arranged to go on, less than half a quarter of an hour, the island in the center of Poyang Lake, has been burning a raging fire, with the fire burning, all the food and equipment stored on the island were burned.


    "Let''s go!"


    At Sun CE''s command, the soldiers quickly boarded the ship and left.


    Sun CE brought back 800 soldiers, and there were still 1000 or 2000 soldiers stationed on the island. Now he fled in a hurry, and now he is just more than 2000 soldiers. His troops are weak, so sun CE, who fled, is also wilting.


    Shortly after sun CE''s evacuation, the Daqin fleet led by Zhang Xiu had arrived near the trail. With the surrender of Wu soldiers leading the way, warships entered the small island''s water stronghold safely. When the warships landed, all the soldiers got off the ship. Besides some recovered bodies, they were all transported ashore and thrown into the fire to burn.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the troops to count the losses and achievements.


    After counting all of them, Jia Xu came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we lost less than 800 troops, killed more than 13000 Wu soldiers, captured as many as 20000 people, many of them jumped into the water and fled, and some of them withdrew with sun CE. This battle can be described as a complete victory. "Gan Ning was very excited and said: "all this is due to the dragon boat. Because of the keel warships, our warships directly forward, a face-to-face, will destroy the invincible Wu water army. Then there is sweeping and rolling. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is the advantage!"


    Jia Xu continued: "in addition, we also captured Huang Gai, the great general of the state of Wu. Huang Gai, however, kept abusing his majesty, saying that he would rather die than betray the state of Wu. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "bring people up!"


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu immediately ordered him to go down.


    Soon after, huanggai was brought up by the soldiers. Now huanggai is more than 40 years away. After years of fighting, he had some stubborn diseases, so his back was slightly bent.


    His temples were a little white.


    However, in Huang Gai''s eyes, there was a sharp light, which was more rebellious and cold.


    As soon as Huang Gai saw Zhang Xiu, he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill or cut, I Huang Gai will not say a word. But it''s impossible for you to recruit me. I, Huang Gai, would rather die than surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "don''t worry, don''t kill you!"


    Huang Gai snorted and said with disdain, "even if you don''t kill me, I can''t appreciate you and I won''t lower you. Huang Gai has fought in the battlefield all his life. It''s not bad for him to die on the battlefield. If you die, you can go to see the old master. If I don''t surrender, you have to raise idle people. "


    "Of course not!"


    Zhang Xiu smile, not anxious not impatient way: "even if you are not dead, that also useful ah!"


    Huang Gai said, "I will not cooperate with you."


    "I don''t need your cooperation!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed up and said: "as long as you have a breath, you just need to live. I can use you. I am not afraid to tell you that next, I will not attack one place at a time, but will lead all the warships to drive straight along the Yangtze River to Wu County. Do you think sun CE will return to Wuxian first, or will I arrive at Wuxian first to launch an attack? "


    Now it''s hot summer, the rainfall is increasing, and the river is flooding. As long as you enter the Yangtze River waterway, you can go eastward with extremely fast speed, which is far faster than the speed of the war horse, and you can go to Wuxian one step ahead of sun CE.


    Huang Gai felt numb when he heard that. Zhang Xiu was so cruel.


    This is a cut from the bottom.


    Directly attack the weakest place of sun CE.

 Chapter 984

    Huang Gai, biting his teeth and looking angry, exclaimed: "Zhang Xiu, even if you want to attack Wu County, you can''t break it. Wu county is the capital of the state of Wu, with a strong city and a moat. Even if you have tens of thousands of troops, it is impossible to break Wu County. "


    Zhang xiudao: "Huang Gai, you are so naive! Do you think that when sun CE was defeated and fled in a hurry, especially when Lu Su was killed and Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu and other main fighters were absent, can Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan and others insist on fighting to the death? "


    Huang Gai was silent.


    In the state of Wu, when the Qin army came to kill them, the soldiers were always fighting.


    Civil servants are different.


    Civil servants are softer and hope to surrender.


    Huang Gai was very flustered in his heart, but he cheered up and asked, "what do you mean by saying so much?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ve said so much, but I still don''t plan to recruit you. I just want to tell you one thing. The state of Wu you are loyal to is totally vulnerable in front of me. If you want to resist my army, it''s a fool''s dream. I just don''t want you to think that the state of Wu can resist. Today''s state of Wu is the fish on my chopping board. "


    "Zhang Xiu, you are the devil!"


    Huang Gai suddenly roared, looking very angry.


    He was full of anger.


    Although Huang Gai was detained, in fact, his hands and feet were not tied. Now he is mad and goes directly to Zhang Xiu. Even if Huang Gai knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful, he is not as good as Zhang Xiu, but he runs to Zhang Xiu like crazy.


    Only when he was less than six feet away from Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu kicked out.


    "Pa!"


    Zhang Xiu kicked Huang Gai''s chest with the soles of her feet. Under the impact of the powerful force, Huang Gai flew backward like an arrow from the string. Her body crossed an arc in the air and then plummeted to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu''s action is so fast, fast and ruthless that after Huang gaidu flies out, Wang Yue reacts and blocks Zhang Xiu''s body. But Huang Gai has been kicked, Wang Yue''s reaction is still a step too late.


    Huang Gai fell to the ground, regardless of his own injury, almost choked: "Zhang Xiu, you killed me, killed me. You devil, you devil


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "originally, I didn''t plan to attack the state of Wu for the time being. After all, Cao Cao was killed by me. Cao Wei''s army was completely lost, and there was no resistance. Cao Wei is in danger, and I have a great chance to destroy Wei. I didn''t expect that the state of Wu was going to attack Jingzhou. That''s why I led my troops south. If it had not been for Wu, I would not have been like this. "


    "You, you..."


    Huang Gai sighed when he heard it.


    Yes!


    It was the state of Wu who took the lead in provocation.


    It was the state of Wu who took the lead in sending troops.


    Huang Gai was the main combatant, but now, Huang Gai deeply regrets. If it had not been for Zhuge Liang''s words, Wu would have been the first to send troops to provoke Zhang Xiu. At least in a short time, Wu would not have been destroyed.


    Now, it''s over.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Huang Gai''s madness and pain, and a smile rises from the corner of her mouth. Today''s yellow cap is still useful. Such a person who has been hit and fallen into despair can cause chaos.


    After staying on the island for less than half an hour, Zhang Xiu ordered all the soldiers to detain the prisoners and then board the ship again. This time I left Poyang Lake and started to go to the Yangtze River waterway.


    From Poyang Lake to Yangtze River, it doesn''t take much time.


    After entering the Yangtze River, Zhang Xiu stood on the deck blowing the river wind, but called Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang song, and said slowly, "on the one hand, we need to use the royal guards of the Qin state to spread the news around the Wu state and disintegrate the combat power of the Wu state. On the other hand, I am ready to wait until the next ferry to release all the prisoners and huanggai. "


    "The more than 10000 captives consumed countless grains every day, even if their rations were deducted."


    "So I''m going to release the prisoners and let them go. Moreover, to let Huang Gai leave is to let him return to sun CE and tell sun ce that we are going to destroy Wu County and let Sun CE go to Wu County. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think of this?"


    "I agree with you


    Jia Xu arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, we''ll go east by water. It''s fast and we won''t go around. In a short time, we can reach Wu County and launch an attack. When we take Wu County and detain sun CE''s family members, we can make a forced landing on Sun CE. After all, sun CE travels by land, and his speed is certainly slower than ours. "


    Zhang Song said: "Jia Shangshu, there is a problem. If we arrive in Wu County, but because the city of Wu county is solid, we can''t win it quickly? "


    Jia Xu said: "as far as I know, Wu county has his Majesty''s insiders. I''m sure I''m willing to cooperate. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what Wen he said is very true!"


    Zhang Song listened to the voice in the clouds.


    He didn''t know who it was?


    Sima Yi has been following Zhang Xiu, and he has a good relationship with Wang Yue. He knows the insiders of Jiangdong. When he heard Jia Xu''s words, he also looked like he agreed with him and said, "Your Majesty, I also agree with the decision to send troops. Now in this war, we can choose to release the prisoners. Originally, the state of Wu was attacked by the state of Qin. Now that sun CE''s army has been destroyed, we have released the prisoners. After the news has been spread all over the country, no one dares to be the enemy of Qin. It will be much easier to wipe out all parts of the state of Wu. "Zhang Xiu said: "that''s settled."


    Since there is no objection, Zhang Xiu decided the plan and said the next step.


    About an hour later, at the next ferry, warships came ashore and released all the captives of the state of Wu. Even Huang Gai was among them.


    At this moment, Huang Gai was confused!


    What''s going on?


    Why Zhang Xiu released him, but also released all the prisoners, this is simply unthinkable. As a general in the army, Rao Shi Huang Gai couldn''t understand.


    Huang Gai was puzzled, but he was not indecisive. Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s warships set sail again, heading all the way east to Wu County, Huang Gai did not dare to delay and left quickly.


    But when Huang Gai left, he wanted to gather the soldiers. But now the morale of the army is dispersed, and many soldiers ignore Huang Gai at all. They fly away and all escape.


    In the end, Huang Gai only gathered more than 1200 soldiers around him. You should know that there are more than 10000 prisoners released by Zhang Xiu, but there are only more than 1000 people who stay at Huang Gai''s side in the end.


    Such a number of people made Huang Gai''s heart sink.


    Huang Gai, with more than 1000 soldiers, found several villages and forcibly expropriated some grain. After supplying, he took the soldiers on his way quickly. It took him two days to get sun CE''s trace in Danyang County, and it took him half a day to join sun CE.


    Huang Gai was very excited when he saw sun CE.


    In fact, sun CE was also extremely excited.


    Sun CE patted Huang Gai on the shoulder and said, "Gongfu, you can come back. Just come back. Just come back."


    Gongfu is Huang Gai''s character.


    "Plop!"


    Huang Gai is kneeling on the ground.


    At the same time, more than 1000 soldiers who were withdrawn with Huang Gai knelt on the ground.


    Huang Gai kowtowed his head to the ground and reported: "Your Highness, in the water war of Poyang Lake, he failed to withdraw in time and became a prisoner of Zhang Xiu. It''s humiliating to be a humble official. Your highness, please surrender. "


    However, sun CE shook his head, reached for Huang Gai and said, "Gongfu, I know you are loyal to our country. You are loyal to the state of Wu. Everything in the past is gone with the wind. I believe you. "


    Then he asked the rest of the soldiers to get up.


    After hearing this, Huang Gai knelt on the ground again and kowtowed to sun CE. Then Huang Gai stood up and said, "Your Highness, after being captured by Zhang Xiu, he was released by Zhang Xiu. In addition, more than 10000 prisoners were all released by Zhang Xiu. "


    "Ah


    When sun CE heard this, he exclaimed.


    There was an unexpected look on his face. He never thought that Zhang xiumingming had captured Huang Gai and more than 10000 soldiers of the state of Wu, and even released them all.


    I don''t understand!

 Chapter 985

    Zhou Yu has been standing on one side, he observed all the reactions of Huang Gai. Because Zhou Yu thought that Huang Gai was a prisoner, and now he is released, which is a little strange. To be sure, Zhou Yu believed that Huang Gai''s loyalty and courage were impossible to surrender, but the reality was cruel. What if Huang Gai really had?


    Zhou Yu turned his mind and asked: "general Gong Fu, why did Zhang Xiu release you?"


    Huang Gai said: "Zhang Xiu didn''t say why. He only told us clearly that he would lead the fleet down from the Yangtze River to Wuxian. Zhang Xiu''s ferry on the Yangtze River set us free. At that time, Zhang Xiu released more than 10000 soldiers of Wu state, but in the end, only more than 1000 soldiers withdrew with me. The rest of the Wu soldiers have all fled. "


    After hearing this, Zhou Yu''s face changed greatly.


    He got it!


    This is Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    Zhou Yu looked at Sun CE and said eagerly, "Your Highness, Zhang Xiu''s mind is extremely poisonous. The reason why he released more than 10000 prisoners is to disturb the local people and make people think differently. "


    "The more than 10000 defeated and captured soldiers must have fled back to their villages. After these people publicized Zhang Xiu''s strength, the whole state of Wu would have a floating heart, thinking that Zhang Xiu''s army could not be stopped. "


    "This is Zhang Xiu''s poison plan."


    "With the help of the people, the state of Wu was disturbed."


    "Of course, Zhang Xiu released the prisoners and reduced the pressure on food and grass, so as not to let the prisoners consume countless food and grass. Today, the army led by Zhang Xiu is going straight to Wu County, which is even more crucial. "


    "Although Wu county is strong, but people''s hearts are floating down, the garrison in Wu county may not be able to keep it."


    With sharp eyes, Zhou Yu said, "the first thing we need to do now is to arrange for our soldiers to rush back to Wu County, and order Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zhen, who are left behind in Wu County, to stay. And we''re here, and we''re coming back with the army. On the way back to Wu County, we should constantly recruit soldiers and expand our strength. If only the present strength is not enough to help Wu County. "


    Sun CE said, "what Gongjin said is true."


    "Fast, it must be fast!"


    Sun CE''s eyes are extremely sharp.


    "Your Highness, I''d like to go back and send a message first."


    Just at this time, a young general around Sun CE stood up. His name is Lu Meng. Now he is not well-known. He is a young general under sun CE''s command. He has a lot of brains among the younger generation.


    Sun cehan said: "Lv Meng, you have excellent riding skills. You can go back and send a message to the king. Don''t worry. When you return to Wu County, you will let Zhongmou take charge of the overall situation on behalf of our king and stick to it with all your strength. "


    "Here it is


    Lu Meng''s fist should be thrown.


    He took two horses and drove on quickly. Along the way, Lu Meng kept on running day and night. After one horse was abandoned, he replaced another one and rushed back to Wu County in the shortest time.


    Because he was in a hurry day and night, but also before Zhang Xiu, the first step back to Wu County. It''s just that the story of sun CE''s defeat has been spread in the city of Wu County. The civil servants and military generals of Wu state are in a mess, which can be described as panic.


    Everyone was worried.


    Some civil servants headed by Zhang Zhao thought that they could not stop the army of Qin and should surrender in order to preserve the state of Wu. Even some of the sun family are like this.


    After all, sun CE was defeated.


    Even Lu Su is dead.


    The 60000 troops brought out by sun CE were almost annihilated. It is conceivable that they caused great waves in the state of Wu.


    However, Sun Jing and Sun Quan are simply stuck.


    When LV Meng returned, he went directly to see Sun Quan and said Sun CE''s order. Today''s Sun Quan is in his early twenties and has long been an adult. Although he did not inherit the foundation of the state of Wu as he did in history, today Sun Quan is quite dignified and resourceful.


    He got sun CE''s order and immediately arranged for Zhuge Jin to be called.


    Zhuge Jin is a member of his staff.


    In addition to that, there was also Bu Gu. Bu Gu was not only Sun Quan''s adviser, but also Sun Quan''s elder brother-in-law. Because Bu''s sister married Sun Quan.


    In the hall, Sun Quan sits in the main seat.


    Below are LV Meng, Zhuge Jin and bu Jia.


    Sun Quan looked at the crowd with a solemn expression and said: "brother arranged for LV Meng to come back and send an order, so that our country would take charge of the overall situation. Obviously, he wanted to fight Zhang Xiu to death. Now Zhang Xiu comes from the Yangtze River and estimates that it won''t take long to arrive. "


    "To call you here is to discuss how to deal with the current situation."


    "The Manchurian princes, countless people clamored to surrender, with surrender to protect the state of Wu. Hum, it''s the first time I''ve heard that surrender can protect the whole country. It''s really new. "


    Sun Quan said, "what do you think we should do to reverse the decline?"


    Zhuge Jin stroked her beard and said slowly, "the second young master, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan, as well as Yu fan, Xue Zong and Zhang Wen, all agreed to surrender and thought that they could not stop Zhang Xiu. It''s not easy for civil servants to do so. After all, the strength of these people is quite strong and influential. If you want to resist with all your strength, you are likely to be hindered. "Bu said: "brother Zhuge is right. The situation is decadent. It''s really not easy to plan a full-scale Anti Japanese war. Even if we do our best, what if some of them, who are willing to do something, agree on the surface, but actually do it secretly? "


    Lu Meng had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "if you want me to say that as long as you suggest surrender, you''d better kill all of them."


    "Not right!"


    Zhugejin shook her head and said, "he killed ministers and civil servants. When the news came out, it made the state of Wu more turbulent. It is impossible to do such a thing. Otherwise, it is tantamount to self destruction. Especially Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan, who dares to move? "


    Sun Quan''s eyes were deep and he asked in a deep voice, "Ziyu, what do you think we should do?"


    Ziyu is zhugejin''s character.


    Zhugejin replied: "second young master, I suggest that we should call all the people together first and make it clear that his highness will order a death fight. Then, we will see who will persuade us to surrender. "


    "As long as it''s the surrender, find a reason for the time being and put them in jail."


    "These people don''t need to be put to death. After all, there is no shortage of these people in Wu Kingdom. So we should detain them first to stabilize the situation. If we don''t kill them anyway, our families will not dare to act rashly. "


    Zhu Gejin put forward suggestions.


    After thinking about it, Sun Quan nodded: "not bad, not bad!"


    He agreed with the plan mentioned by Zhuge Jin, but Sun Quan had his own ideas, but he didn''t reveal them. Immediately, Sun Quan arranged for his attendants to summon all the civil servants of the state of Wu to the palace of King Wu.


    Sun Quan brought Zhuge Jin, bu Jia, LV Meng and others to the meeting hall. In addition, Sun Jing, Wu Jing and other members of the sun and Wu families were also present.


    Sun Quan did not sit on the throne. He placed a seat under the throne as his seat.


    In about two quarters of an hour, all the people gathered.


    Sun Quan looked around at the people, especially Zhang Dan and Zhang Zhao, and said slowly, "after the news of brother Wang''s defeat in Poyang Lake came back to Wu County, the whole county was in a state of panic, and everyone was worried."


    "I have heard that many people have discussed surrender."


    "But now, brother Wang arranged for LV Meng to return first, and ordered our country to supervise Wu''s affairs, and ordered him to fight to the death to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. Now Brother Wang is determined to fight to the end. "


    "But even so, I have to ask you more, what do you mean?"


    Sun Quan was not impatient and said, "after listening to the suggestions of the princes, we''ll come up with a plan to resist Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu takes the Yangtze River waterway and will soon arrive in Wu County. Although you can speak freely, it''s OK to say so. "


    Zhang Zhao was not only a civil servant of Wu, but also the helmsman of Zhang Jia.


    He had to consider not only the situation of the state of Wu, but also the situation of his family. Zhang Zhao said, "second young master, in view of the current situation, the old minister thinks that the state of Wu can''t hold on. It''s better to protect the whole country and be a minister to the state of Qin than to let the people''s lives be ruined. "


    This is Zhang Zhao''s attitude.


    What''s more, the trend of Zhang Xiu''s defeating Yuan Shao, killing Cao Cao and destroying Liu Bei''s state of Chu is getting closer and closer. At this point, Zhang Zhao is not optimistic about Wu.


    If sun CE had never been defeated in Poyang Lake, that would be fine. However, sun CE''s defeat in Poyang Lake also damaged Lu Su and countless soldiers. Under such a premise, Zhang Zhao no longer insisted that he should surrender.

 Chapter 986

    With Zhang Zhao''s words, Xue Zong stood up and said with a look of approval: "second young master, I agree with Zhang Gong''s analysis. Zhang Xiu has a strong army and a strong strength. We can''t compete with her. "


    As Xue Zong came forward, civil servants attached to the state of Wu began to speak one after another. All of these people suggested that Sun Quan surrender. No one was on the side of Wu.


    No one can stop it!


    So I''m not willing to resist.


    In particular, their words were also considered by the sun family. They believed that only surrender could protect the whole country.


    Sun Quanming knew these things and the faces of civil servants, but when he heard them, he was still filled with anger. The current situation gives Sun Quan a feeling that people are doing their best.


    In front of his eyes, all his enemies.


    There is no one to support him.


    Sun Quan''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Zhen. He asked, "Mr. Zi Gang, what do you think?"


    Wu Guoer, Zhang Zhang, Zhang Dan and Zhang Zhao are leaders of civil servants, each with a group of supporters.


    Zhang Zhen thought for a while and said slowly: "second young master, since the king has sent back the order to fight Zhang Xiu to the end, he will try his best to fight. Although I also think that the state of Wu can''t stop the army of Qin, Zhang Xiu''s army will fight for a while. If you can resist it, you are the best. If you can''t resist it, you can do other things. "


    "Hoo!"


    After hearing this, Sun Quan was relieved.


    Anyway, Zhang didn''t directly say surrender, which made the pressure on Sun Quan''s shoulder much less. If Zhang Zhen suggested surrender, the pressure on Sun Quan would be enormous, and even he would not be able to deal with some people.


    After all, Zhang represents the other half of the civil service system.


    But now, Zhang Dan and Zhang Zhao have different opinions, so the situation has changed.


    Zhang Zhao was a little surprised.


    Zhang Hong, like him, agreed to surrender. Although Zhang''s words were in favor of capitulation and thought that he could not resist the Qin army, at least Zhang made a slight adjustment and said that he could choose to resist, and then he would consider it.


    Zhang Zhen looked at Zhang Zhao with a calm expression. The original Zhang also agreed to surrender directly. However, he just heard Sun Quan say that sun CE wanted to fight to the death and let Sun Quan take charge of the government. Obviously, there is still a war.


    Under such a premise, Zhang made an adjustment. Instead of blindly demanding surrender, he changed his view and thought that he could resist a little and then consider the matter of surrender.


    There''s an extra buffer.


    Sun Quan was determined in his heart. After looking around the crowd, he said in a deep voice, "come on


    With Sun Quan''s order, two Jiashi entered, Sun Quan again ordered: "Xue Zong bewitched the public, secretly communicated with Zhang Xiu, the crime is not forgiven. Drag Xue Zong down and show him to the public. If there are any more people in the Wu Kingdom who dare to surrender, there will be no amnesty for killing them! "


    Brush!


    People''s faces changed greatly.


    All the civil servants were shocked.


    Even though Zhuge Jin and BU Xiang had different looks on their faces. In the past, they suggested that Sun Quan detain people, but now Sun Quan''s practice is to kill people directly, completely abandoning the previous proposal.


    Zhang Zhao stood up and remonstrated, "second young master, don''t do it!"


    The rest of the civil servants suggested.


    If Xue Zong is killed, this case will not mean that Sun Quan will kill whoever he wants. No one would like to see such a situation, so people came out one after another to stop it.


    Sun Quan looked around and said, "as officials of the state of Wu, you should be loyal to the state of Wu. Zhang Xiu''s army is coming. Before the first World War, you all want to surrender. Xue Zong, in particular, not only had no courage to resist, but also went around shouting that the state of Wu was not the opponent of the state of Qin


    The crowd frowned at the speech.


    It is true that they are from the state of Wu, but it is not proper for them to make the sun family surrender.


    This is forced by the situation.


    There was shame on the faces of all the people, so that there was a temporary calm in the hall.


    Sun Quan, however, had a firm face. With a sonorous sound, he pulled out his sword and held it across his chest. He said with a loud voice: "who dares to dissuade me again, and be such a table!"


    With that, he swung his sword and cut it off.


    "Chaka!"


    A corner of the desk was cut off.


    Sun Quan looked around all the people in the hall. With a flick of his sleeve, he scolded, "drag it down!"


    After the soldiers dragged Xue Zong down, even though Zhang Zhao was in the hall, he didn''t have a good face. Zhang Zhao is very clear that Sun Quan''s killing Xue Zong, although it is a deterrent to other civil servants, is actually beating him. Because Zhang Zhao is in a high position and can''t move lightly, Zhang Zhao can''t be dealt with. He can only be an insignificant Xue Zong killed.


    It''s killing chickens to scare monkeys!


    Sun Quan took a deep breath and continued: "are you going to surrender to Zhang Xiu?"The crowd was silent.


    At this time, Zhang Zhao took a look at Zhang Zhen. He obviously made a judgment before he said that he would resist first and then consider surrendering. All of them were not beaten, but he made some mistakes in his judgment.


    Sun Quan said, "Sun Jing!"


    "Yes


    Sun Jing answers with a clasp.


    Sun Jing is the uncle of Sun Quan and sun CE, and he is also a major combatant.


    Sun Quan said: "you take over all the garrisons in Wu County, close the four gates of Wu County, and forbid anyone to enter or leave. In addition, soldiers were sent to inspect the streets of the city to prevent human affairs. At night, a curfew was imposed and no one was allowed to walk on the street. Those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy! "


    "Here it is


    Sun Jing should hold her fist.


    As Sun Jian''s brother, Sun Jing is very pleased to see sun CE''s heroism and Sun Quan''s command. Compared with sun CE''s impatience, in fact, Sun Quan is more stable and thoughtful.


    Sun Quan looked around and finally looked at Zhang Zhao. He said again, "zibugong, during the time when Zhang Xiu killed him, you are worried that the city will affect your family and you can''t resist it. You should stay in your house and don''t go out at will."


    "Yes, sir


    Zhang Zhao is very clear, this is to prevent him from making trouble, prevent him from joining Zhang Xiu ahead of time, so it is equivalent to imprison him.


    But Zhang Zhao sneered.


    Although Zhang Zhao clamored to surrender to Zhang Xiu and thought that he couldn''t resist Zhang Xiu, in fact, he didn''t want to surrender to Zhang Xiu first, and he didn''t want to lose his face.


    Sun Quan''s big sleeve flicked and said, "since there is no business, let''s step down."


    Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan and others stepped down.


    Bu Jia, Zhuge Jin and LV Meng did not leave. LV Meng looked excited and said, "the second young master killed well, but it''s a pity that Zhang Zhao, an old man who is also a capitulator, can''t kill him. If you kill Xue Zong, these capitulators will know the consequences. If they dare to surrender wantonly, kill them first. "


    Zhugejin sighed: "the second young master dealt with Xue Zong by thunder, and so on, blocked the Qin army''s attack. When your highness returns to the court, I''m afraid the civil servants will impeach you crazily. It''s not good for you. "


    Bu said: "I agree with brother Ziyu''s analysis. The second young master is dedicated to Wu. But in fact, he put himself in danger, which is tantamount to offending the civil servants of the state of Wu. "


    Sun Quan Jun Lang''s cheek, but a look of awe inspiring righteousness, said: "today''s Wu, to the most dangerous time. If the state of Wu is still haggling over personal gains and losses, it will be defeated. The current situation, can only be the most decisive means to deter people. Your proposal to detain and surrender civil servants is not very feasible. "


    When zhugejin and BU Xiang heard this, they didn''t say much.


    Sun Quan looked at LV Meng again and said, "Lv Meng, you lead the soldiers to patrol the city and watch every move in the city carefully. In particular, the officials who propose surrender should keep a close eye on them. If they have any changes, once they are found, there will be no amnesty. "


    In his words, Sun Quan is full of determination.


    He was not a man of indecision. Sun Quan was willing to take risks when it came to the life and death of the state of Wu.


    Lu Meng said: "don''t worry, young master. I will pay attention to it."


    "All back!"


    After Sun Quan waved his hand, LV Meng, Zhuge Jin and BU Xiang stepped down. After the three retreated, Sun Quan sat alone in the hall, his young and handsome cheek full of frustration and helplessness.


    In front of everyone, he can''t panic, can''t show helpless look. But in fact, when the state of Wu arrived at this stage, how could he not panic and not be afraid.


    His elder brother, who was good at fighting, was defeated by Zhang Xiu, not to mention Wu County. But Sun Quan had no choice but to go down.


    Even if we are defeated, we must fight first.


    There is no way out for Wu.


    There is no way out for the sun family.

 Chapter 987

    Wu County, in the city.


    In the southwest of Wu County, there is a mansion which is neither broad nor grand.


    This is the Lu family.


    Now Lu Xun is at the helm of the Lu family. In today''s Lu family, he is the most capable. Although Lu Xun has an uncle, Lu Ji, Lu Xun''s uncle, is only 14 or 15 years old now. He is not old enough to take charge of the Lu family.


    Lu Kang once served as the governor of Lujiang River and died of sun CE. Before sun CE attacked Lujiang River, Lu Xun brought his people back to Wu County and settled down in Wu County. Fortunately, Lu Jia is a big family in Jiangdong and has a lot of contacts.


    So over the years, the Lu family in Wu county also had a lot of old friends and didn''t receive much attention.


    Lu Xun has always known the news from the outside world. Although sun CE never recruited Lu Xun from the beginning to the end, Sun Quan from time to time arranged for people to send some gifts to show his respect for Lu Xun.


    Lu Xun accepted Sun Quan''s kindness one by one, but did not refuse. Because the Lu family now has no strength to compete with the sun family. Even if Lu Xun wants to avenge Lu Kang, he can''t do it just by his strength.


    After all, sun CE''s strength is too strong.


    In the study, Lu Xun is reading a book. Most of the time, he studies behind closed doors. In addition to friends and guests, most of the time, they are reading and practicing calligraphy at home.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, outside the study.


    "Come in!"


    Lu Xun gave a command, the door creaked, and a young man of fourteen or fifteen came in. It was Lu Ji, Lu Xun''s uncle.


    Lu Ji is Lu Kang''s old son. He is younger than Lu Xun''s nephew. Although Lu Xun was young and old, when he saw Lu Ji, he stood up and bowed respectfully


    Lu Ji chuckled and said, "Bo Yan doesn''t have to be polite. Sit down!"


    Bo Yan is Lu Xun''s expression.


    Lu Xun nodded and sat down.


    After Lu Ji sat down, he looked at Lu Xun and solemnly said, "Bo Yan, do you know the news that sun CE was defeated and returned on the Poyang Lake, and Zhang Xiu has moved eastward from the Yangtze River to Wu County?"


    "I see!"


    Lu Xun nodded.


    Lu Ji leaned forward slightly and said solemnly: "Bo Yan, you say this time, whether we Lu family want to fight."


    Lu Xun said: "not for the time being!"


    "Why?"


    Lu Ji frowned and looked unhappy. From Lu Ji''s point of view, sun CE''s defeat in Poyang Lake and Wu''s unprecedented decline in strength are the best opportunities to fall into the pit.


    This time, he can avenge Lu Kang and wash away his shame.


    Lu Xun looked smart and replied: "uncle, although sun CE was defeated in Poyang Lake, there are still tens of thousands of troops in Wu County. This skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Even if the sun family is in decline, it is still unmatched for the Lu family. "


    "If we do it now, it will easily lead to the Lu family''s predicament."


    "For the time being, a move is better than a rest."


    "Especially after the arrival of Zhang Xiu''s army, Zhang Xiu will take action."


    Lu Xun said slowly: "what we have to do now is wait for the opportunity. When it''s time to do it, I''ll arrange it. Now we don''t have any conditions. Now we are looking for a dead end. "


    Lu Ji is a talented person. After hearing Lu Xun''s words, he nodded: "I understand what you mean. What you mean is that we have to wait for Zhang Xiu to attack Wu County, or wait for Zhang Xiu to arrange someone to contact us. "


    "Yes


    Lu Xun stroked his moustache and said, "Shi a, the Royal Guard under Zhang Xiu, took Gu Yong''s family away from Wu County. At that time, without the help of my Lu family, Shi a would not have been able to take people away. This became the link between us and the state of Qin. "


    "In the past, Zhang Xiu was just a overlord with strong strength."


    "Today''s Zhang Xiu has the greatest strength in Liangzhou, Yizhou, Guanzhong, Jingzhou, Yuzhou and Yanzhou. It never occurred to anyone that Zhang Xiu, a Wufu, would be able to get to this point. "


    "But for my Lu family, we have already got in touch with Zhang Xiu, which is a good thing."


    Lu Xun said: "so I''m sure Zhang Xiu will arrange someone to come. With the help of us, we can get familiar with the situation of Wu County. Even with the help of us, we can win Wu County. "


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door outside the study.


    When he saw Lu Xingxun, he called himself an old friend of Qin''s family


    "Please


    Lu Xun said.


    The housekeeper turned and stepped down. Lu Xun looked at Lu Ji and said with a smile, "look, this man, that is to say, he can''t do it. Fortunately, our Lu family is very low-key and not noticeable. After Sun Quan killed Xue Zong, he focused on Zhang Zhao, Yu Fan and others, worried that these civil servants would make trouble. Our Lu family, on the contrary, is relaxed and will not be monitored. If the Lu family is really involved, it will be difficult to be targeted. "Lu Ji said: "Sun Quan has been courting me many times. I hope you will become an official. You just don''t want to be watched by Sun Quan, so you refuse Sun Quan''s solicitation and don''t want to be an official. "


    Lu Xun said: "all kinds of reasons, a combination of them, is not simply unwilling to be watched. After all, Sun Quan is only the second son of the state of Wu. What''s more, the sun family is the enemy of my Lu family. I don''t want to follow Sun Quan. "


    Lu Ji nodded.


    They were chatting. Soon, a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes entered.


    This man is Wu Quan, the Royal Guard of Wu County.


    He was born as a local Ranger. When Shi''a entered Wu County, Wu Quan contacted shi''a. Now, Wu Quan receives a letter from the royal guards arranged by Zhang Xiu, so he comes to visit himself.


    Wu Quan bowed himself and solemnly said, "Wu Quan, I''ve met the leader of the Lu family."


    Lu Xun said, "please sit down!"


    "Thank you, Master Lu!"


    After thanking Wu Quan, he lifted up his robe and sat down in the hall. For him, it''s not difficult to come to see Lu Xun. Even though Lu Xun is a scholarly family and an official family, he has different identities, Wu Quanquan is not humble to Lu Xun, because he is not only responsible for the royal guards in Wu County, but also for the whole Wu County.


    He was also a big official in the royal guards system.


    He was a feudal official.


    Lu Xun said solemnly, "I don''t know what''s the matter when a strong man comes to my Lu family?"


    Wu Quan took out a letter and said, "this is a gift from your majesty. Please read it." With that, he stood up, handed it to Lu Xun, and went back to his seat.


    Lu Xun opened the letter and scanned it quickly. Then he took the oil lamp and burned it in front of Wu Quan. He said with a straight face: "don''t worry, sir. I will cooperate with the arrangement of Emperor Qin. You can report back to Emperor Qin and act according to the plan. "


    "Thank you very much."


    Wu Quan smiles when he hears it.


    It''s done!


    Wu Quan didn''t stay, so he got up and left. After Wu Quan left, Lu Ji couldn''t help but ask: "Bo Yan, what did Zhang Xiu say?"


    Lu Xun replied: "in Zhang Xiu''s letter, it is said that the army he led is going to arrive in Wuxian county all the way east from the Yangtze River. At that time, the army led by Zhang Xiu will attack Ximen of Wu County. At the same time, Zhang Xiu will dispatch an army to enter from the north gate of Wu County, and let our Lu family arrange people to meet her. They will open the north gate with Zhang Xiu''s army to welcome the Qin army into the city. "


    Lu Ji frowned and said, "the city of Wu county is solid, where is it so easy to enter. I''m afraid it''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to enter Wu County. "


    Lu Xun shook his head and said: "uncle, do you forget that Zhang Xiu defeated Zhang Xiu and the flying ball that Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Liu in Nanyang County. As far as I know, the flying eagle camp under Zhang Xiu can transport soldiers to land from the air. With this weapon, it is not difficult for Zhang Xiu''s army to enter through the north gate. "


    "Yes, I forgot."


    When Lu Ji heard this, his eyes brightened, his face looked expectant, and he said, "well, let''s wait and see. I look forward to Zhang Xiu''s army attacking Wu County as soon as possible. "


    "I''m looking forward to it, too!"


    Lu Xun smiles. He looks forward to it.

 Chapter 988

    Zhang Xiu led the army, all aboard warships, all the way to the East, and finally landed at the ferry in Wu County. Although Wu County ferry was garrisoned by Wu army, it was easy for Zhang Xiu to conquer.


    When the army landed, they went straight to the county seat of Wu County. When Zhang Xiu was on the way, he received a letter from the royal guards. Lu Xun agreed to cooperate and was willing to help the army in the city.


    When Zhang Xiu learns of Lu Xun''s reply, she doesn''t feel surprised.


    This is to be expected.


    Lu family and Wu family have feuds.


    In history, Lu Xun finally submitted to Sun Quan and worked for him. At that time, the situation was because Sun Quan had already broken off the southeast and monopolized Jiangdong by virtue of the Yangtze River moat.


    No matter what Lu Xun did, he could not overthrow Sun Quan, but chose to submit to the sun family.


    This is a helpless choice.


    It is also a helpless move.


    Today is not the same, although the sun family occupies Jiangdong county. However, in the first World War of Poyang Lake, sun CE was defeated at the expense of his troops. The sun family''s rule was already in danger, and he was about to be unable to defend the turbulent situation.


    The Lu family has a chance to revenge.


    Therefore, Lu Xun will certainly not sit back and ignore.


    Zhang Xiu led the army on the way. On the way, Hu Mo was ready for the surprise attack. When the army led by Zhang Xiu came outside the city of Wu County, the army set up camp outside the west gate of Wu County. But not all of Zhang Xiu''s troops were here. Some of the troops have quietly ambushed outside the north gate.


    Through the royal guards, Zhang Xiu knows that Sun Quan is in Wu County. Today, sun Dongdi is just a young man who has no power in seclusion.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward and asked in a loud voice, "where is Sun Quan?"


    "I''m here!"


    Sun Quan learned that Zhang Xiu''s army landed on the shore, he had personally brought Sun Jing and others to the city tower to stay and wait. The reason for doing so is to ensure that once Zhang Xiu arrives, he can resist Zhang Xiu''s army for the first time and ensure the safety of Wu County.


    Sun Quan, dressed in armor, has sharp eyes and falls on Zhang Xiu. This is the first time he saw Zhang Xiu, so he was quite surprised. Zhang Xiu''s age is not much different from that of his elder brother. But today''s Zhang Xiu is already the king of a country, with the greatest strength in the world.


    The state of Wu is in trouble.


    It''s amazing that Zhang Xiu is so young and has such a foundation.


    Sun Quan, who is also a young man, has some sour feelings after seeing Zhang Xiu. Sun Quan took a deep breath, suppressed the complex emotional fluctuations in his heart, and then said: "Zhang Xiu, if you invade the state of Wu for no reason, you will be defeated in Wu County even if you win temporarily."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered: "Sun Quan, you are in your early twenties. You are used to telling lies with your eyes open. This is a good tradition of your Sun family. "


    "I am fighting with the army of the state of Wei. Sun CE led his army to invade Jiangxia County on the border of Qin state. It was you who provoked the state of Wu first. Now, I am the first to invade the state of Wu. "


    "Together, what the sun family does is right, others are wrong."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said sarcastically, "your Father Sun Jian died early in Jingzhou. After all, your grandson''s family style is like this, the natural circulation, the retribution is not good. Today, I''m leading the army here to break the state of Wu. "


    Sun Quan has always admired his father.


    On hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, she immediately became angry and said, "Zhang Xiu, the whole Wu Kingdom is one heart, and thousands of children are here. Even if you are as violent as Jie Zhou and kill countless people, you will not scare the soldiers of Wu state. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "when you mentioned that I was like Jie Zhou again, it was very unpleasant. I always don''t like being splashed with dirty water or being stigmatized. So now that I''m talking about this, I''ll press down on my plan to attack for the time being, and I''ll talk to you first. "


    "If it''s far away, it''s meaningless."


    "In the recent Poyang Lake war, I led the army and sun CE to fight in Poyang Lake. After the first World War, I captured more than 10000 soldiers of the state of Wu, and even Huang Gai, the great general of the state of Wu, fell into my hands. "


    "Huang Gai is quite courageous."


    "Better die than surrender!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I have captured so many people. According to Sun Quan, I act like Jie Zhou, killing countless people, so I should kill all the prisoners."


    "But I have never killed one."


    "All the prisoners, without exception, were released at the ferry near the Yangtze River in Danyang county. Even Huang Gai, I never killed him. Even if he raves and roars, I still release Huang Gai. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you still say that I am like Jie Zhou under such circumstances, it''s really bloody. As the saying goes, "justice lies in the heart of the people. How I act depends on the judgment of the people."


    When Sun Quan heard this, he sneered in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu is not so kind.


    Suddenly, Sun Quan''s ear moved, and he immediately heard the comments around him. The soldiers under his command kept talking about Zhang Xiu''s words. Among many people, they said that Zhang Xiu was kind. In a moment, Sun Quan was angry.Zhang Xiu is too treacherous.


    Obviously, he used his words just now to show his strength, to show his kindness to the soldiers, and to break his morale.


    Sun Quan turned his eyes and said again: "Zhang Xiu, don''t say how kind you are. In the first World War of Poyang Lake, you killed more than 20000 soldiers of Wu state. This is a deep hatred. You said you were kind, but why did you kill so many Wu soldiers? "


    "Shallow, stupid!"


    Zhang Xiu heard Sun Quan''s words and spoke again, and her words were extremely sharp.


    Zhang Xiu, standing firmly on the pursuit of the wind, said: "each army has its own stand in fighting. There is a confrontation between me and the state of Wu. It is very normal for both sides to fight. You kill me and I kill you. "


    "When the soldiers of the state of Wu killed the son of our Qin army, my king never said anything. The reason is very simple. There is no reason or friendship for fighting on the battlefield. There is only killing. "


    "Because no one wants to die."


    "Because no one wants to die."


    "So, you kill me, I kill you, there is nothing to say. Every son who goes to fight in the battlefield knows that in the battlefield, he is fighting with his head and risking his life. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so you Sun Quan''s words are really superficial and stupid. As for how to treat prisoners after the war, it is the time to treat a person. Sun Quan, you are so shallow, don''t talk any more. As soon as you open your mouth, you pollute your ears and make people uncomfortable. "


    Brush!


    Sun Quan''s face changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu is so hateful.


    In particular, Sun Quan looked around and looked at the soldiers of the state of Wu under his command. When they glanced at him, they looked contemptuous and looked down on him. Obviously, the soldiers all agreed with Zhang Xiu''s words, because fighting on the battlefield is not benevolent.


    Only win or lose.


    It''s a fight on the battlefield.


    Sun Quan frowned. At this time, he found Zhang Xiu''s sharp teeth and sharp mouth. His mouth was so powerful that he couldn''t compete. At least he couldn''t carry it.


    Sun Quan didn''t want to say more, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you want to fight, fight. Today, I am on the upper floor of the city. If you break Wuxian County, I''m willing to lose. But even if you have a strong army, you still have to stop here when you meet the strong city of Wu County. You can''t win any more


    "Good. I appreciate your courage."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, also no longer many words, ordered: "attack!"


    "Attack!"


    Huang Zhong yelled and ordered immediately.


    In an instant, there were the first soldiers to attack. These soldiers are the elite of the flying bear army under Huang Zhong. With the soldiers carrying shields, some archers quickly put in place and shot bows and arrows to suppress the soldiers on the upper floor of the city.


    In addition, several stone throwing carts were also assembled. They quickly began to throw a small amount of stones collected nearby. They bombarded the soldiers of the state of Wu on the top of the city, as well as Jinglan carts, siege carts, and cloud ladders.


    The offensive was launched completely.

 Chapter 989

    The Qin soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command were extremely aggressive. Even if there was a moat, it still could not stop the Qin army''s offensive. However, the soldiers of the state of Wu, who were on the top of the city, were still fighting against each other.


    There are also some powerful generals of the state of Wu, such as Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, who are all fighting to the death.


    These people are fighting hard.


    So many soldiers of the state of Qin boarded the city tower and were beaten down in the twinkling of an eye.


    The fighting between the two sides is extremely fierce.


    When Zhang Xiu tried her best to urge the soldiers to attack the west gate, on the other side of the north gate of Wu County, beside a bamboo forest in the distance, there was an open place where Hu Mo led the flying eagle camp.


    "Newspaper!"


    The soldier came to Hu Mo''s side and reported, "my Lord, the wind is just right for the attack."


    "Light up!"


    Hu Mo immediately ordered.


    With Hu Mo''s order, the flying balls ignited quickly. As the hot-air balloon heated and expanded, the flying balls began to lift off slowly. The soldier who had been waiting for him quickly entered the basket.


    Now the flying ball has undergone a series of improvements, and its stability and strength are also increased.


    However, there were only 15 people in the flying ball, with a total of 40 flying balls, which were ignited and began to take off. One by one, the flying balls rose to a certain height and went to the north gate of Wu county with the wind blowing. Originally, it was only six or seven miles from the place where it was raised to the north gate. The flying ball moved quickly and entered the north gate in a short time.


    One by one, the flying balls start to land slowly.


    The war in Ximen attracted the attention of all the Wu soldiers, and made almost the vast majority of the soldiers gather in Ximen. Even though soldiers were stationed in the north gate, there were not many troops.


    No one paid attention to the soldiers stationed in the north gate in the sky. It was not clear that there was a flying ball in. On the contrary, Lu Xun had known for a long time, so he had been waiting in the north of the city. When he saw the flying ball landing, he quickly took the private soldiers of the landing home away and came to the landing site.


    The number of Lu''s private soldiers is not large, only more than 400.


    More than 400 private soldiers of Lu family, together with nearly 600 flying bear soldiers from the flying ball and a team of 1000 people, went straight to the gate of the north gate. Lu Xun, who was familiar with the road, took people to the North Gate Tower. On the one hand, he took people to the tower and quickly killed a small number of soldiers stationed at the north gate. On the other hand, he asked people to open the gate and put down the suspension bridge.


    With the drawbridge down, the city gate opened, and immediately there were 20000 black mountain troops outside the city.


    Twenty thousand Montenegrin troops are extremely effective.


    After entering the city, the 20000 black mountain troops did not go to the west gate on the upper floor of the city, but entered the city and went straight to the west along the street. In particular, after Zhang Yan''s Heishan army took Beicheng, they had released Xiangjian to inform Zhang Xiu of the news.


    Twenty thousand Montenegrin troops are on their way. Not long ago, it was close to the west city. Today''s Xicheng upstairs, killing in full swing, fighting continues.


    Sun Quan personally took command.


    In addition, it was also led by a group of tiger generals such as Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin. In addition, this was the first battle, and the soldiers of the state of Wu were still under constant pressure to defend. Therefore, the soldiers of the state of Wu were still able to defend with the help of geographical advantages. All of a sudden, there was a cry from outside the city. The soldiers of the Qin army kept shouting that they had conquered the north of the city.


    The news shocked Sun Quan.


    It''s impossible!


    Zhang Xiu''s troops are all in the west of the city. How can they suddenly seize the north of the city.


    "Newspaper!"


    When Sun Quan was confused, some soldiers came quickly. The soldier looked alarmed and quickly came to Sun Quan''s side, reporting: "second young master, something''s wrong. In the north of the city, Zhang Xiu''s army is coming from the city. It''s about to approach us. Wu county is falling! "


    Boom!!


    Sun Quan''s mind is like thunder. In a flash, there was a blank in my mind, and I didn''t have any consciousness any more. He never thought that the north of the city would fall.


    You know, Wu county is a strong city, which is not easy to break. But now, Wu county has been directly broken, which is beyond Sun Quan''s expectation.


    Zhugejin has been not far away from Sun Quan, he heard the news, but also a moment of absence. Immediately Zhuge Jin came back to her senses and said in a loud voice, "second young master, the situation is not good. Retreat, we retreat at once


    "No, we can''t retreat!"


    Sun Quan clenched his teeth and said: "if we retreat now, our mother, younger sister and others will all fall into the trap and become Zhang Xiu''s hostages. We can''t retreat now. We have to fight to the end. "


    Zhuge Jin said: "second young master, Zhang Xiu''s troops are absolutely superior. We can''t stop them."


    "Withdraw, retreat to Wu Wang Fu!"


    Sun Quan turned his eyes and ordered again.


    He gave orders stubbornly.


    When Zhuge Jin saw this, she had no choice but to follow Sun Quan''s orders and take Bu Jia, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and others to the direction of Wu palace in the city.


    Only this retreat is equivalent to giving the west gate to Zhang Xiu. Especially after Sun Quan retreated, these retreating Wu soldiers soon met the killed black mountain army and were killed by surprise.Sun Quan and his party were even more desperate. When Sun Quan and his party retreated to the Wu palace, even though Sun Jing, LV Meng, Zhou Tai and others were there, there were less than 3000 soldiers around.


    Wu Jun, heavy losses.


    Sun Quan ordered everyone to retreat to guard the great Wu palace.


    After the confluence of Zhang Xiu and the Heishan army, the army did not stop at all, but fought in the direction of King Wu''s residence. At this time, Zhang Xiu also got the news that Sun Quan had retreated to the Wu palace.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is the best.


    Sun Quan didn''t escape, and all the people of the sun family were there, so it was easy for Zhang Xiu to wipe out the people of the sun family. On the contrary, if Sun Quan runs away in a hurry, and even the sun family runs away, it will not be easy to wipe out the sun family and deal with sun CE.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu came outside the Wu palace, the army surrounded the Wu palace.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the towering Wu palace, without any delay or shouting, and directly ordered the attack. Even though it took some time for Zhang Xiu''s army to enter Prince Wu''s residence, half an hour later, the Wu''s residence was broken, and the army had already entered the Wu''s residence.


    Although there were Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin''s generation, in the face of the fierce attack of Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, the power of the Wu palace was hard to compete. Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Zhuge Jin, bu Jia and others were all captured.


    Sun Quan, Sun Jing and sun CE''s family members were all captured.


    When Zhang Xiu entered the hall of the Wu palace, she saw Sun Quan in custody. She put a smile on her lips and said, "do you see Sun Quan? This is your strong city, vulnerable. Just as your elder brother sun CE, relying on the warships of the state of Wu to sweep the world, relying on the natural moat, he did not take my warships in his eyes. In the end, all the ships collided, so that all the warships of Wu state collapsed and were destroyed by the collision. Sun CE has blind self-confidence, so do you. Now, you are defeated. "


    Sun Quan clenched his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, if you want to kill him, kill him."


    "Don''t kill you!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles and says: "originally I was worried that sun CE might run away. But now, with you and the rest of the sun family, I don''t believe that sun CE will retreat. The state of Wu has been destroyed. "


    As soon as Sun Quan heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he rushed to Zhang Xiu.


    This time, Wang Yue prepared early. At the moment of Sun Quan''s hand, Wang Yue stepped forward, raised his leg and kicked it out directly, which made Sun Quan fall back to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu said, "why? Even if you struggle like this, it''s no use! "


    Sun Quan curled up on the ground in great pain.


    He is not willing to!


    He lost Wu County, he lost Wu state, and he buried everything of Wu state.

 Chapter 990

    "Kill me, you kill me!"


    Sun Quan roared. He was not only in physical pain, but also in inner pain. The mental pain tormented Sun Quan and made him fall into a state of madness.


    Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand, took the sword from her waist, threw it directly in front of Sun Quan, and said, "if you want to die, I will help you. One more than you, one less than you. You''re dead, the sun family and the rest. As long as there is one person left in the sun family, I can intimidate sun CE. Now you can commit suicide. "


    Sun Quan curls up on the ground and looks at the sword in front of him. Now he has no idea of attacking Zhang Xiu. It''s not only Zhang Xiu''s own strength, but also Zhang Xiu''s bodyguard and martial arts. He can''t kill Zhang Xiu.


    Sun Quan trembled and stretched out his hand. When he held the sword in his hand, the hand holding the handle of the sword was still shaking slightly.


    Suicide!


    Unexpectedly, he also faced such a scene.


    As sun CE''s younger brother, he was very powerful in the state of Wu, at least controlling the life and death of countless people. Once he wanted to kill was just a matter of words, but now, his life and death are controlled by Zhang Xiu.


    Sun Quan wanted to commit suicide with his sword, but he was not reconciled.


    I''m not willing to be such a failure.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Sun Quan, if you don''t want to die, just kneel down and beg for mercy in front of me. Then, I can not kill you. It''s just a dog''s life. It doesn''t matter if I kill you or not. "


    In a word, it stimulated Sun Quan.


    He is a man of great pride.


    Sun Quan clenched his teeth and suddenly raised his sword. His sharp blade easily cut his throat.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed out at once.


    Sun Quan''s throat spurted blood. After his throat was cut, more blood spilled out of his mouth uncontrollably. He swayed twice, plopped and fell to the ground.


    After the fall of Sun Quan, there is no breath.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the dead Sun Quan and said, "I''m still a man with some courage."


    "Drag it down, burials!"


    Zhang Xiu orders that his own soldiers come forward and drag Sun Quan''s body away.


    At the moment, the rest of the sun family were all grieved. For all the sons of the sun family, sun CE was more hot tempered and spoke more directly, which was something they were awed by.


    However, Sun Quan''s personality is softer and he is very good at leading people and dealing with affairs, which makes all the disciples of the sun family like Sun Quan even more. So now Sun Quan''s suicide is full of grief.


    There are those who cry bitterly and those who have no expression on their faces. Without exception, the death of Sun Quan makes all the people in the sun family afraid of being slaughtered.


    Zhang Xiu looks around at the sun family. She doesn''t want to kill any more. A group of women and children have nothing to deal with. He immediately arranged for the soldiers to take away all the sun family members and put them in prison.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu returned to the barracks where the army was stationed.


    The next thing that Wu Yixiu and Zhang Xuxian have done is to take two things. First, we need to win Zhou Yu and sun CE. Otherwise, if we don''t win them, there will be hidden dangers. Second, we need to clean up Wu County, Danyang county and Kuaiji county


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, it''s very simple to deal with sun CE and Zhou Yu. Nowadays, not only the people in Wu''s mansion have been put into prison, but Zhou Yu''s family members have also been controlled. Just spread the news and order sun CE and Zhou Yu to lead the people to surrender. Otherwise, half a month later, they will be executed in Wu County. With these two pieces of news, everything is enough! "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what Wen he said is true."


    Zhang Xiu directly adopted Jia Xu''s plan, because it was the simplest and most direct way.


    Not everyone can have Liu Bang''s decision to abandon his wife and children. Sun CE, in particular, is impatient and emotional. It involves the lives of all the people in the sun family and the Zhou family. Sun CE can''t stay away.


    Jia Xu continued: "as for the second point, we should wipe out the counties. We should leave the feiqiang army and Baima Yicong in Wuxian. Huang Zhong''s Feixiong army and Zhang Yan''s Heishan army went to the south of Wujun, swept the south of Wujun, and then went south to Kuaiji. Zhang Yan''s Heishan army raided the west of Wu County, then entered Danyang county and raided Danyang county. As long as these three counties are won, there are still some sites in the south, but it is not enough to worry about. In this way, the whole state of Wu will be under the control of his majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and immediately called Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan, and gave an order to send them out.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu stayed in Wu County.


    Now what Zhang Xiu wants to do is to wait for the news.


    ¡­¡­


    On the western border of Wu County, on the official road.


    The army led by sun CE is on its way to Wu County. All the way back from Chaisang, he went through Danyang county. Along the way, the counties continued to recruit soldiers and consolidate their strength. Today, the number of troops under sun CE''s command has reached nearly 10000.


    These 10000 troops are not many.As long as sun CE returns to Wu County, he can contain Zhang Xiu''s army near Wu County. At that time, Zhang Xiu will not be able to go all out to attack Wu County.


    As long as Wu county is preserved, the state of Wu will be preserved.


    This is sun CE''s hope.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentinel in front of him raced back quickly. When the sentry rode the horse, his face was very nervous, and even more worried and afraid. Where he had passed, the soldiers kept retreating, and they did not dare to stop him.


    Soon, the sentry came to sun CE.


    The sentry held his fist and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, the matter is not good."


    Click!


    Sun CE''s heart sank. He couldn''t keep calm any longer, his legs were a little soft, and there was a short blank in his mind. He soon recovered and said, "Wu County, what''s the situation?"


    The sentinel replied, "report back to the king, Wu county has fallen. Zhang Xiu has conquered Wu County."


    Boom!!


    There seemed to be thunder in sun CE''s mind.


    Lost!


    It''s a complete failure!


    Wu County, the capital of Wu state, has already fallen into the hands of Zhang Xiu. At this moment, sun CE was deeply regretful. He provoked Zhang Xiu, but also only a few months, Zhang Xiu has been broken the capital. If he didn''t provoke Zhang Xiu and attack Jiang Xia, there would be no present situation.


    This is the remorse in sun CE''s heart.


    Sun CE regretted it in his heart and was even more immersed in remorse, which made it difficult for him to extricate himself for a moment.


    Zhou Yu stood aside. Although he was very sad, he still kept calm and asked, "is it safe for the second son, the princess and others to escape from the collapse of Wu County?"


    "Fall all over!"


    After listening to Zhou Yu''s inquiry, the sentry said, "the second young master has committed suicide. In addition, the princess and the rest of the royal family all fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu. The same is true of the family members of the governor. Zhang Xiu has arranged for people to spread the news, ordering the king and the governor of Dadu to return to Wu County immediately to surrender, otherwise they will be executed in half a month. "


    Brush!


    Zhou Yu''s face also changed.


    Even his governor''s office was not spared, and all of them fell.


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu!"


    Sun CE clenched his teeth, clenched his fist, and his face was full of anger. It''s said that the disaster is not as bad as his wife and children, but now that Zhang Xiu has won Wu County, she even takes his wife and children as a threat. In sun CE''s opinion, it''s insane.


    Zhou Yu also suffered in his heart!


    Although today''s Zhou Yu has not married yet, all his family members are at home. Today, all people''s lives are in his hands, and it''s hard for Zhou Yu to make up his mind.


    Zhou Yu said: "Your Highness, if it''s a rational judgment, you can''t go to Wu County and throw yourself into the net now. Once you go to Wu County, it is tantamount to entrusting your life to Zhang Xiu and letting her be slaughtered. If you don''t go to Wu County, your highness will be away, and there will be a chance of life. Two choices, your highness


    Sun CE frowned. The choice was really hard. He didn''t know how to choose for a while.


    Either way, it has an impact.

 Chapter 991

    If sun CE fled, he would have to ignore the life of his family. If sun CE chooses to go to Wu County, he will entrust his life to Zhang Xiu.


    No matter which one you choose, you will pay some price.


    This is the most difficult choice.


    It''s also an inner torture.


    Zhou Yu looked in his eyes and solemnly said, "Your Highness, if you choose family, you have to go back to Wu County. If you choose hegemony and fight to the end with Zhang Xiu, you will stay outside and go to the direction of Kuaiji county to resist Zhang Xiu with the help of the power of Kuaiji county. "


    After a pause, Zhou Yu folded his hands and bowed to sun CE.


    It''s a real salute.


    He bowed to the end, stood up and said, "Your Highness, please forgive Zhou Yu for being timid, because I can''t abandon my family. Next, I will go to Wu county to ensure the well-being of my family. If your highness chooses hegemony, I will not accompany you. In fact, I hope your highness can continue to dominate. Because you''re alive and you''re out, you can take revenge. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When sun CE heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    In the laughter, it was desolate.


    In the laughter, I was helpless.


    After half a sound, sun CE stopped laughing. His face was full of determination and said, "Gongjin, you and I have known each other for more than ten years. Don''t you know me? If we say Zhongmou, he has ambition since he was a child. He has a calm temperament and a city. He is a man who does great things. "


    "But I''ve never been. I don''t have much desire to dominate the world."


    "The reason why I am in charge of the army is to avenge my father and make my family safe. I wish my family well. My only wish is for my family to be together. "


    "The general trend of the world makes people in it. It seems that there are countless waves behind you, pushing you forward and making you unable to stop. That''s why we have today''s Wu King sun CE."


    "But that''s not what I want."


    Sun CE said, "I, sun CE, am not a cold-blooded man. What sun CE wants is to protect his family. Now the life of my family is in my hands. How can I ignore it. So, I''m going back to Wu County. "


    After staring at Sun CE for a while, Zhou Yu finally said, "OK, let''s go back to Wu County together."


    "Return to Wu County together!"


    Sun CE nodded in response, but he immediately gave the order to stop the invasion, and gathered more than ten thousand soldiers under his command. Sun CE looked at all the soldiers. At this time, all the soldiers in the army were worried. Their faces were full of sadness and uneasiness, because everyone knew that Zhang Xiu was not easy to deal with.


    To deal with Zhang Xiu is to seek death.


    But they are soldiers of the state of Wu. They must obey orders.


    Sun CE looked around at all the people, took a breath, and said in a loud voice, "my sons, Wu county has fallen. Now all the family members of the king are in the hands of Zhang Xiu. I''m going back to Wu County because I can''t let my family go. "


    "As for you, I do not ask you to fight with me. If you should go back to your hometown, go back to the countryside. Those who are willing to go with me will go back to Wu county with me. I expect that Zhang Xiu will also arrange for you. "


    "There are so many words. I won''t say anything extra. If you want to come, just leave."


    Sun CE made a brief remark and gave an order.


    When the soldiers heard this, they were completely flustered. Previously, they were just panicking. After all, they had never heard of the collapse of Wuxian before. Now, if they don''t go to wuce County, they need to surrender.


    Many soldiers saluted sun CE, turned and left.


    After all, many people were recruited in Danyang County, so soldiers left one after another. A quarter of an hour later, sun CE looks at the soldiers left behind. There are about 1300 soldiers left behind. These soldiers are still with sun CE. On the one hand, many of them are from Wuxian county. On the other hand, many of them have nowhere to go and can only withdraw with sun CE.


    "Let''s go!"


    Sun CE didn''t say much, but took the soldiers on his way.


    Sun CE led more than 1000 soldiers on their way. As they got closer to Wu County, the news had already been sent back to Wu County. Zhang Xiu gets the news of sun CE''s withdrawal, and there are only more than 1000 soldiers around Sun CE. Zhang Xiu smiles.


    Wu Guoping is settled!


    Because with the withdrawal of sun CE, Wu would no longer have any power.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting in Wu County.


    As time went by, sun CE arrived at the gate with more than 1000 soldiers in less than two days. Sun CE personally came forward and asked people to inform Zhang Xiu that he had led his troops to surrender.


    After a while, some soldiers came and led sun CE and his party into the city and went straight to the barracks. However, as soon as they entered the barracks, all the soldiers under sun CE''s command were detained. Sun CE and Zhou Yu were also controlled and led to the barracks.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the throne and looks at Sun CE and Zhou Yu. With a smile on his face, he said with a smile: "after many years, we meet face to face. What a pity! Sun CE and Zhou Yu, you two are completely defeated. "


    "Plop!"Sun CE knelt down directly on the ground, followed by Zhou Yu, also lifted up his robe and knelt down.


    Sun CE said, "Sun CE is willing to surrender."


    Zhou Yu said, "Zhou Yu is willing to surrender."


    Zhang Xiu looked at the two men who were submissive and said, "it''s a good thing that you are willing to surrender. What I promised you will not be broken. If you surrender, I will not kill you and save your lives. Sun and Zhou will all move to Chang''an and live in Chang''an in the future. "


    "Here it is


    Sun CE and Zhou Yu immediately responded.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhou Yu and said, "Zhou Yu, you have both the strategy of governing the country and the talent of leading soldiers to fight. If you are willing to submit, I will not hesitate to use it. "


    Zhou Yu shook his head, but said: "thank you for your respect. However, Zhou Yu was disheartened, but he didn''t want to be an official again. It''s good to be an idle rich man. "


    Surrender and surrender are two different things.


    Zhou Yu is willing to surrender, but he is not willing to submit to Zhang Xiu and work for her.


    After hearing this, sun CE glared at Zhou Yu. As the king of Wu, he must be a caged bird after his surrender. He can''t serve in his own house.


    Zhou Yu is different!


    After all, Zhou Yu is his minister. Zhang Xiu can use it. However, Zhou Yu turned down Zhang Xiu''s invitation, which was tantamount to breaking the possibility of becoming an official himself, which Sun CE didn''t want to see.


    When Zhou Yu saw sun CE''s look, he was not moved at all.


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head with regret.


    Since Zhou Yu is like this, it is impossible for him to give him any chance. He can only monitor Zhou Yu and let him be a rich man all his life. This is Zhou Yu''s choice.


    Zhang Yu and Sun Yu would not be able to release their family members, but they would not be able to do so.


    After Zhang Xiu took sun CE and Zhou Yu, she began to adjust the officials of Wu state. Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan and other civil servants were all in the adjustment. However, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and Han Dang were not willing to be officials, and they were still idle at home.


    Most of the civil servants accepted the adjustment, but the Wu generals were not willing to accept it. Although Zhang Xiu did not deal with such people, she mobilized the royal guards to closely monitor them. As long as there is any change, it is no amnesty. After all the adjustments, on this day, Lu Xun came to the army.


    Lu Xun entered the camp, bowed and said, "I''ve met your majesty."


    Zhang Xiulu: "Bo Yan came here for sun CE''s sake?"


    "Yes


    Lu Xun did not beat around the Bush and answered directly.


    Lu Xun did not forget the hatred of the Lu family. He helped Zhang Xiu for this day. Now that sun CE is in Zhang Xiu''s hands, Lu Xun is ready to take revenge.


    This is what he has to do.

 Chapter 992

    Lu Xun''s eyes were sharp and he said, "Your Majesty, sun CE has a deep hatred for our Lu family. In the past, I was willing to help your majesty because I wanted to avenge myself. Now sun CE has surrendered and fallen into his Majesty''s hands. I would like to ask your majesty to help your majesty by giving sun CE to the Lu family so that we can have revenge. "


    Lu Xun always paid attention to revenge.


    Without revenge, he could not face the dead Lu Kang or the Lu family. You know, because sun CE attacked Lujiang County, Lu Kang died, Lu lost Optimus Prime, decadent so far.


    Even though the Lu family has some fame and connections, the Lu family today is far from the famous Lu family in Jiangdong. All this is caused by sun CE.


    It''s a big hate.


    Zhang Xiu is not surprised to hear Lu Xun''s words. Because he knew the hatred between the two families. After a moment, Zhang Xiu said, "Bo Yan, I have something to consider about sun CE."


    Lu Xun, listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, felt a thump in his heart. After all, sun CE is now obedient.


    What if Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill sun CE?


    It''s not good news for Lu Xun. Lu Xun didn''t want to see such a situation. Before Zhang Xiu finished, he lifted his robe and knelt down on the ground. He solemnly said, "Your Majesty, Lu Xun is willing to exchange all his merits for sun CE. Please allow him."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Bo Yan, you are a wise man. You should know that now that sun CE is obedient, if I rashly give sun CE to you, how do the scholars in the world treat me?"


    "What do the scholars of Wu state think of me?"


    "What will the officials of the state of Wu who will submit to the Qin Dynasty think. Sun CE''s retention can stabilize the officials of Wu state. Once sun CE is given a death sentence or handed over by me, the impact will be too great. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you should know that a living sun CE is more conducive to the stability of Daqin."


    "I know!"


    Still kneeling on the ground, Lu Xun said solemnly: "Lu Xun knows that it is difficult for your majesty to give me sun CE. But Lu Xun didn''t dare to forget his family feud. Therefore, I beg your majesty to do it. "


    He has his own persistence.


    He would rather give up everything, rather than give up his official position, than give up Lu Kang''s great hatred.


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk."


    "Yes


    Although Lu Xun insisted in his heart, he did not dare to force Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu was not only the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, but also a wise man. Lu Xun worried that forcing Zhang Xiu would lead to her anger.


    Therefore, Lu Xun also stood up, still looking at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her reply.


    He hopes Zhang Xiu can let him deal with sun CE.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "as for sun CE, he has already been subordinated to Daqin. No matter what he did before, I can''t give you sun CE directly, otherwise the consequences will be incalculable. "


    Lu Xun was moved by Zhang Xiu''s words. He asked: "Your Majesty can''t give me sun CE directly, so I beg your majesty to give sun ce a death, so as to relieve my family''s gratitude and resentment."


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu still shakes her head.


    Lu Xun was helpless, no matter how to deal with sun CE, how can this work?


    Sun CE must die!


    The problem is that Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person, but a real wise man.


    Lu Xun could only keep a low profile and said, "Your Majesty, it was so sad that my uncle died in Lujiang County in the past. Even the bones of his uncle did not converge, so he sent back some clothes and crowns later and set up a clothes and crowns tomb in Wu County. Sun CE has a family feud against my Lu family. If I don''t get revenge, I can''t be reconciled. I beg your majesty to do it. "


    He can only plead, hoping to be reasonable and emotional, let Zhang Xiu relax.


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you want to deal with sun CE, I won''t stop you. Of course, if you want to deal with sun CE, I will not support you. Do you understand this scale? "


    Lu Xun a listen, then clear Zhang Xiu intention.


    This is impartial.


    In other words, Zhang Xiu remained neutral.


    Lu Xun thought in his heart and said, "Your Majesty''s meaning, Lu Xun has understood."


    There was some regret in his heart.


    Unfortunately, we didn''t get sun CE. If Zhang Xiu gave sun CE to the Lu family directly, it would be easy for him to kill sun CE. But now he has to plan carefully to deal with sun CE. It''s not so easy to deal with sun CE.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "Bo Yan, you have made great contributions to the state of Qin. I have never forgotten the merits of your Lu family. I''m going to appoint you as the governor of Yangzhou. Would you like to


    The governor of Yangzhou is in charge of Yangzhou.


    This is a very prominent official position.


    It can be said that when Zhang Xiu appointed Lu Xun as the governor of a state, the Lu family rose up and became a prominent family of the Qin Dynasty. Even in Yangzhou, Lu Xun was powerful.


    It''s not polite to say that it''s much easier to deal with sun CE when Lu Xun holds the post of governor of Yangzhou. Lu Xun is a wise man. When he thinks about it in his heart, he immediately understands it.This is Zhang Xiu''s compensation, and even a shortcut for him to deal with the sun family.


    This is an opportunity to deal with sun CE.


    As long as he becomes the governor of Yangzhou, it will be easier for him to plan against sun CE than his white identity. After Lu Xun understood his mind, he didn''t refuse. He bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Xun is willing."


    "Humble Lu Xun, meet your majesty."


    Immediately, Lu Xun closed his hands and bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "in that case, get ready, and then go to the post. The state of Wu has perished. Yangzhou lacks a governor to take charge of the overall situation. As a governor of Yangzhou, you should seize the time to deal with government affairs and get familiar with the situation. "


    "Here it is


    Lu Xun responded directly.


    For him, if he can become a governor of Yangzhou, the Lu family will become completely prominent.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Lu Xun turned back.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Lu Xun''s back and smiles at the corner of her mouth. Because he believed that Lu Xun must have understood what he meant. Zhang Xiu, as the emperor of Qin, now that sun CE is obedient, he can''t take the initiative to target sun CE.


    Otherwise, the impact is too great.


    But when Lu Xun was about to walk out of the barracks, Zhang Xiu suddenly said, "Bo Yan, wait a minute!"


    Lu Xun turned around and said, "what can your majesty do for you?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the matter of sun CE, although sun CE led to Lu Kang''s death. But for the Lu family, sun CE never investigated, never killed the old and weak women and children of the Lu family. So I hope you can grasp the yardstick


    "I understand


    Lu Xun bowed down again.


    He is clear about Zhang Xiu''s point, which is to remind him not to harm the innocent. It can deal with sun CE, but it can''t involve sun CE''s family members and other people, otherwise Zhang Xiu will definitely intervene.


    This is the bottom line of Zhang Xiu.


    Lu Xun turned around and left. As soon as he returned to his house, Lu Ji hurried to his study and asked, "Bo Yan, go to see Emperor Qin. I don''t know if he ever promised to give you sun CE."


    Lu Xun and Lu Kang are grandparents, while Lu Ji is Lu Kang''s son. In his heart, he was looking forward to killing sun CE and avenging his father.


    Lu Xun shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has not promised."


    "Why?"


    Lu Ji frowned and said: "whether it was the last time Shi A''s operation in Wu County, or this time, our Lu family led the way for the Qin army, they all helped the Qin army. But why, Zhang Xiu refused Lu''s request. It''s just a sun CE. Is it worth it? Is Zhang Xiu really going to turn around and refuse to recognize people? "


    Lu Ji was a little angry at this moment.


    Anyway, the Lu family is also a meritorious person, who has made great contributions to the state of Qin, but Zhang Xiu turns over and doesn''t recognize people.

 Chapter 993

    Lu Ji looked angry, but Lu Xun was indifferent from beginning to end. He said with a smile, "uncle, although your majesty never promised to give us sun CE, he also made his stand."


    Lu Ji said, "what''s the state of it?"


    Lu Xun replied, "Your Majesty said that we should deal with sun CE. He will not be right. However, he will not support us in dealing with sun CE. That is his Majesty''s attitude. "


    "What''s the use of that?"


    Lu Ji''s slightly tender face was full of anger. For the Lu family, to deal with sun CE without Zhang Xiu''s support is like looking for the moon in the water. Even if Lu Xun is good at planning, even if Lu Xun is good at layout, it is too difficult to deal with sun CE.


    Lu Ji clenched his fists and said: "Zhang Xiu is just ruthless. Bo Yan, I knew that. At the beginning, my Lu family should not believe Zhang Xiu''s words and help her. I didn''t expect that he couldn''t give up even one sun CE. "


    Lu Xun continued: "don''t worry, uncle. If my Lu family doesn''t have any power, it''s really not easy to deal with sun CE. After all, the sun family has a lot of power, but your majesty has appointed me as the governor of Yangzhou. The governor of Yangzhou in the state of Qin was a feudal official. It was not difficult to deal with sun CE. It''s much easier to plan. "


    After hearing this, Lu Ji turned angry into happy.


    That''s a good thing.


    After all, he was a feudal official of the state of Qin, and a prefectural governor was already the most important position of the foreign officials. To be promoted further is to become an official in the imperial court and the central government.


    Lu Jixi said with a smile: "with this compensation, it''s almost the same."


    After a pause, Lu Ji complained: "it''s clear that we can give sun CE directly to our Lu family and let our Lu family take revenge. But it''s so complicated."


    Lu Xun said: "this is your Majesty''s imperial mentality. After I left the barracks, I thought about it carefully and found that this arrangement has three advantages for your majesty."


    Lu Ji said: "how to say?"


    Lu Xun said: "first, tell the former civil servants and military generals of the state of Wu clearly that our Lu family has made great efforts to defeat the state of Wu. It is because of our efforts that Lu Xun can jump to be the governor of Yangzhou. Otherwise, if I want to be the governor of Yangzhou, without any merit, who can be convinced? "


    "Therefore, such an arrangement is tantamount to making enemies for our Lu family. It is tantamount to your majesty making those who once served in the state of Wu hostile to us. Under such a premise, our Lu family can''t give any chance to the former officials of Wu state. "


    "Otherwise, in the end, my Lu family will be targeted."


    "We can only be loyal to your majesty."


    "For your majesty."


    Lu Xun continued: "second, this is also mentioned just now. When I am the governor of Yangzhou, the Lu family will have a chance to deal with sun CE. This is a reward for the Lu family."


    "According to my personal speculation, maybe in his Majesty''s heart, he doesn''t want sun CE to live, but also wants to eradicate sun CE. Because sun CE was eradicated, the state of Wu had no backbone. "


    "But your majesty can''t do it yourself. So take my hand. "


    After a pause, Lu Xun said, "third, both Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan advocated surrender. But if they came to govern Yangzhou, they would be deeply rooted and easily out of the control of the Qin Dynasty. After all, these officials of the state of Wu were originally members of a group. But our Lu family is different. Lu family had never been an official before, and had little contact with the former officials of Wu state. We are isolated, so we govern the place. Your majesty can rest assured that after all, we are vulnerable to attack. "


    Lu Xun said: "this is your Majesty''s imperial mental skill. It gives us the Lu family a chance to deal with sun CE. At the same time, he isolated our Lu family and let us govern Yangzhou for his majesty. "


    After hearing this, Lu Ji''s face was also shocked.


    After Lu Xun''s analysis, he understood. Unexpectedly, there are so many twists and turns in dealing with sun CE. It''s incredible.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there was a valet knocking outside the study.


    Lu Xun said, "come in!"


    The Chamberlain entered and reported: "master of the family, the emperor''s envoys came to convey the imperial edict."


    "Please


    After hearing this, Lu Xun immediately gave orders.


    Lu Xun, together with Lu Ji and others, rushed to the hall to greet them. When they came to the hall and saw the emperor''s envoy after the festival, the other party called him directly. In fact, this was the imperial edict to appoint Lu Xun as the governor of Yangzhou and the official uniform of yinshou.


    Since then, Lu Xun has become the governor of Yangzhou.


    After Lu Xun said thanks, he wanted to invite the summoned people to the mansion for tea, but he was refused. After Lu Xun became the official governor of Yangzhou, the first thing he did was to go to Lu Kang''s tomb to pay homage to him.


    This is the first thing Lu Xun did.


    It''s the beginning of his fight against sun CE.


    Lu Xun wants to take this opportunity to beat the sun family.


    Lu Xun also knew his duty. Since he was appointed governor of Yangzhou. So while dealing with sun CE, we must not neglect the governance of Yangzhou, which must be taken into account, otherwise Zhang Xiu will not let him be the governor of Yangzhou.When Lu Xun began to be busy, the news that Lu Xun was appointed governor of Yangzhou spread in a short time. Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan and others who surrendered were shocked, as were Zhou Yu, sun CE and others.


    No one thought that it was Lu Xun who won.


    Lu Xun became the big winner.


    Under the premise of sun''s defeat, Lu Xun got the greatest benefit. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zhen are all first-class wise men. It''s easy to guess that the Lu family must have contributed to Zhang Xiu''s attack on the state of Wu, otherwise it would not be so.


    Sun CE and his family were imprisoned in the city.


    It''s just no access.


    But they did not restrict their movement in the government.


    When sun CE got the news that Lu Xun had become the governor of Yangzhou, he was also confused for a while. In fact, Lu Xun didn''t show any signs of being involved in the fight between the state of Qin and the state of Wu.


    Now, Lu Xun has become the governor of Yangzhou.


    Sun CE is not stupid.


    He understood the reason immediately.


    When Sun Jing got the news, he also came to the hall in a hurry. When he saw sun CE, he solemnly said, "Bo Fu, Lu Xun suddenly became the governor of Yangzhou, which is very bad for our Sun family."


    Sun CE said: "I understand what my uncle means. You mentioned that when we were in Lujiang County, we attacked Lujiang County, so that Lu Kang died, and Lu Xun and his family evacuated to Wuxian county to settle down. "


    "Yes


    Sun Jing nodded and continued: "in recent years, we have recruited Lu family members to become officials, but they were all politely rejected by Lu Xun. You didn''t take care of the Lu family and let it live and die. "


    "Today, the situation is different."


    "Especially this time, Lu Xun directly became the governor of Yangzhou. I''m afraid that Lu Xun also contributed to the collapse of the state of Wu. As far as I know, when the north gate was broken, someone led the way, so that the north gate fell. "


    "Now it seems that this is the Lu family, led by Lu Xun."


    "The prosperity of the Lu family is not good for the sun family. In particular, you should know that the first thing after Lu Xun took office is to pay homage to Lu Kang who died. "


    "What is he doing? He told us clearly that he didn''t forget Lu Kang''s hatred. Today''s Lu Xun, is to revenge. For so many years, Lu Xun rarely paid homage to Lu Kang, but now he does it openly. Moreover, after he became the governor of Yangzhou, he paid homage to one thing, which shows Lu Xun''s mind. "


    Sun Jing, biting her teeth and looking angry, said, "I didn''t expect that Lu Xun, a young man, was so good at forbearance. Today, he just shows his tusks."


    When Sun Jing spoke, there was a touch of worry in her eyes.


    Worried about the current situation of the sun family.


    Today''s Sun family is no longer the royal family of Wu. Now they are imprisoned and have no more power. Although Zhang Xiu didn''t kill them, she didn''t give them any preferential treatment. They were like caged birds.


    Once they were dealt with by Lu Xun, they could not resist.


    Sun CE sat on the throne, his face also became extremely dignified. Because in the current situation, he can''t think of a solution for a while, and he can''t even find a way to meet Zhou Yu.

 Chapter 994

    Sun CE''s face was full of coldness and solemnity.


    His eyes were more worried.


    Sun CE, the former king of Wu, did not pay attention to his hatred for the Lu family. It''s just a Lu family. He''s not afraid or worried. But now the sun family is lonely.


    On the contrary, it was the Lu family. Because Lu Xun became the governor of Yangzhou, the Lu family became a hot family.


    For a moment, sun CE was a bit absent-minded. After half a sound, he recovered, looked at Sun Jing and said, "uncle, this is it. What do you think we should do? We, the sun family, can''t be beaten passively. "


    Sun Jing sighed and replied, "Bo Fu, I know what you said. The problem is that today''s Lu Xun, even if he is just a assassin, is not difficult to deal with us. What shall we do to resist? "


    "Alas..."


    Sun CE sighed.


    Now he has no counselors around him, no one to offer advice, and he doesn''t know what to do for a moment.


    After all, in the current situation, there is no solution.


    Sun Jing sat down in silence.


    For a time, the atmosphere in the study became stagnant.


    After half a sound, sun CE waved his hand and said, "uncle, go back first. I''ll think about dealing with Lu Xun. I''ll think about what to do. In a word, I''ll ensure the safety of my family. "


    "Good!"


    Sun Jing didn''t say much and turned back.


    After Sun Jing stepped down, sun CE sat alone in the room, thinking about the solution to the current situation.


    The problem is, he has nothing to do.


    Just at this time, your servant came and entered the room and said, "Your Highness, the young master has been crying all the time, saying that he wants to find you. The princess has no choice but to arrange for someone to come to you. "


    Sun CE now has a son under his knees.


    Now his sons are five or six years old. They are very clever and sensible. When sun CE heard this, he stood up and went out, but as he walked, he said, "don''t call your highness any more. I''m not King Wu. Now, it''s just a prisoner. "


    The attendant said, "Your Highness is our highness at all times."


    Sun CE shook his head, but did not correct it.


    He came to the backyard and looked at the crying child with a smile on his face. As soon as he appeared, let alone, the child stopped crying. He hugged sun CE very intimately and was very happy.


    This scene made sun CE happy. In fact, sun CE also sighed.


    A happy family is happy.


    Unfortunately, people are helpless.


    Without Lu Xun, sun CE would be a prisoner. But now, Lu Xun became the governor of Yangzhou, and he made it clear that he wanted to take revenge. Now sun CE can''t enjoy the happiness of his family.


    Sun CE played with his children, stayed in the backyard for a long time, and then returned to his study. Sun CE sat down and thought about the countermeasures. But sun cisi thought about it, but there was still no way to crack it. By evening it was getting dark. At this time, sun CE sighed with a sigh, and his face gradually became determined.


    The root of everything lies in him.


    Well, he''ll take care of it.


    Sun CE took a deep breath and began to write letters. After writing a letter in his hand, he put it aside, but picked up his sword. He had a sword in his hand, his expression was cold, but his eyes gradually became decisive.


    Everything, from him!


    Now it ends in his hands!


    As soon as sun CE gritted his teeth, he began to work hard on his hand, and his long sword sliced his neck.


    "Poof!"


    The blood splashed on Sun CE''s face and he felt a touch of pain. Red blood, gurgling from his throat, soaked his clothes. As soon as sun CE shook, he fell to the ground the next moment.


    His eyes grew dim.


    No more glory.


    Sun CE committed suicide and died in his study. When he arrived late at night, a servant knocked on the door. Seeing that there was no response, he pushed the door open and entered. When he saw that sun CE had committed suicide, he was immediately shocked. The servant went to report in panic. Soon, sun CE''s mother, Mrs. Wu, Sun Jing, and sun CE''s wife all entered the study and saw the dead sun CE.


    Sun Jing came forward and picked up the letter.


    He took out the letter and read it quickly, sighing in his heart. This letter is for Sun Jing to hand over to Zhang Xiu, saying that sun CE is willing to fight for his life, hoping that Lu Xun will not pursue it.


    After reading the letter, Sun Jing told the people of the sun family the content of the letter. After listening to it, all the people of the sun family felt extremely sad.


    First Sun Quan died.


    Now sun CE is dead again.


    The two pillars of the sun family died one after another.


    Sun Jing comes to the door of sun''s residence, looks at the soldiers outside, and asks them to report that he wants to meet Zhang Xiu. After the soldiers went to report, Sun Jing was able to enter the barracks and meet Zhang Xiu in the Chinese army tent.When Sun Jing saw Zhang Xiu, he knelt down and saluted, "sinner Sun Jing, I have seen your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up and talk."


    Sun Jing stood up and said, "Your Majesty, sun CE, the nephew of the sinner, committed suicide. Now sun CE has a letter for your majesty to read. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and was surprised.


    Sun CE chose to commit suicide.


    This is surprising.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and read it quickly. In this letter, sun CE mentioned his hatred with the Lu family. In the past, Lu Kang''s death was caused by him. So now sun CE''s life is worth his life. He hopes that Zhang Xiu will protect the rest of the sun family and Lu Xun will not pursue them.


    After reading it, Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Sun Jing and said, "I''ve agreed to sun CE''s request. Please step back!"


    "Thank you


    Sun Jing bowed down.


    He knew that with the death of sun CE, the cohesion of the sun family would be completely invalid. If sun CE is here, then the former civil and military officials of sun CE may still have ideas. But now that sun CE is dead, everyone has no idea. Zhang Xiu called to Wang Yue, handed sun CE''s letter to Wang Yue, and said, "this letter will be sent to Lu Xun."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Wang Yue went down to arrange, and the letter was soon sent to Lu Xun.


    When Lu Xun saw the news in the letter and learned that sun CE had committed suicide, his hatred for many years disintegrated.


    Dead!


    Sun CE is dead at last!


    Originally, Lu Xun''s memorial ceremony for Lu Kang was to beat sun CE and make the people of the sun family panic all the time. Now sun CE committed suicide, and all the hatred disappeared. Lu Xun didn''t want to do anything to anger the women and children of the sun family.


    Sun CE is dead, so much hatred.


    Lu Xun also admired sun CE''s decision, because it was the most direct solution. If sun CE doesn''t do this, the sun family will be implicated and will certainly suffer from reckless disaster.


    When sun CE died, everything would stop.


    Lu Xun is clear that Zhang Xiu arranges people to send a letter just to tell him that the matter is over. Lu Xun gets up and goes home. After telling Lu Ji the news, he arranges for someone to prepare incense wax paper money and go to Lu Kang''s tomb with Lu Ji.


    When they arrived at Lu Kang''s grave, they were filled with emotion.


    After many years, I finally got revenge.


    Lu Xun and Lu Ji held a memorial ceremony for Lu Kang before turning back. Today''s Lu Xun, without the fetters of family hatred, the next thing to do is to go all out to govern Yangzhou and make achievements.


    He didn''t want to do nothing.


    He also has an ambition.

 Chapter 995

    Zhou Yu''s residence is now a small house, and few people come to visit it. Zhou Yu used to be the governor of the state of Wu, and countless people came to pay homage to him every day. But now, Zhou Yu has long been indifferent to the affairs of the world, regardless of government affairs, so few people come to visit him.


    When Zhou Yu was at home, most of the time he kept his door shut and studied in his family.


    Rao is so. Zhou Yu is also concerned about the situation. When Zhou Yu learned that Lu Xun was worshipped as the governor of Yangzhou, and even Lu Xun openly went to worship Lu Kang, Zhou Yu knew that the situation was not good.


    This is extremely unfavorable to sun CE.


    Zhou Yu wanted to raise sun CE, but now there is no way. After all, it''s not good for sun CE to visit him now. After all, the situation is very sensitive, and Zhou Yu can only help him.


    The next day, Zhou Yu got the news that sun CE had committed suicide. Zhou Yu was saddened by the news. Although they were called monarchs and ministers, they were actually brothers. Although they were not flesh and blood brothers, their friendship was no less than flesh and blood friendship.


    Zhou Yu set up a spirit card in his family to commemorate sun CE. During Zhou Yu''s memorial service to sun CE, however, some attendants came in and reported: "the three generals, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and Han Dang, the head of the family, asked to see him outside the mansion."


    "Please


    Zhou Yu gave an order.


    He knew very well that the three men must have heard about sun CE, and they came to see him only after they knew about sun CE''s death.


    Zhou Yu also came to the hall from the backyard.


    Soon after, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and Han Dang arrived. After bowing to Zhou Yu, they took their seats.


    Cheng Pu clenched his fist and clenched his teeth and said, "governor Du, your highness committed suicide. He died unjustly. All this is caused by Lu Xun and Zhang Xiu. At the beginning, Zhang Xiu said not to kill his highness or the sun family. But now, it was Lu Xun who was inspired to kill his highness. We can''t forget this. Please do it. Let''s go out and take revenge for your highness. "


    "Revenge?"


    Zhou Yu asked, "how are you going to avenge Bo Fu, de Mou?"


    De Mou is Cheng Pu''s word.


    Cheng Pu said: "we are a martial arts man. We can''t give advice. But most of them are different. They have outstanding talents. They must have a way to deal with Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun. Even if we can''t deal with Zhang Xun, at least we will


    Zhou Yu didn''t want everyone to die. He shook his head and said, "Bo Fu is dead. You are sad, and so am I. But you should know that the reason why Lu Xun went to pay homage to Lu Kang was that Lu Kang died in the first World War in Lujiang County. This is the original hatred. "


    "Up to now, Lu Xun is revenge."


    "The reason why Bofu committed suicide is that he didn''t want to implicate the rest of the sun family, and didn''t want to affect the innocent."


    "So, Bofu committed suicide."


    Zhou Yu said: "of course, there is Zhang Xiu''s plan to talk about the death of Bofu. Zhang Xiu''s appointment of Lu Xun as the governor of Yangzhou is tantamount to killing people with the help of a knife and killing Bofu with the help of Lu Xun. You want revenge, and I want revenge. "


    "But you have to know that once you plan to deal with Lu Xun, you are on the edge of the cliff. After the failure, not only the family members of Bofu, but also all of them will be involved. There are many of your family members, and they are all going to jail. "


    Zhou Yu looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "but would you like to see such a result?"


    He was dumb.


    Huang Gai and Han Dang clenched their fists. They were loyal to sun''s family and sun CE, so after sun CE was forced to die, they were willing to stand up for sun CE. But their actions will lead to the plight of the sun family and their families, which they are hesitant about.


    Zhou Yu sighed: "once upon a time, when the state of Qin and the state of Wu were at war, we followed Bo Fu to surrender, so Zhang Xiu didn''t kill us. But now, with a plot against the officials of the Qin Dynasty, or even against Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu will not be merciful any more. It''s not just us, it''s the rest of us. "


    All the people were silent.


    Zhou Yu continued: "you have come to see me together. The news may have been reported to Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu knows that you''ve come to see me. Maybe Zhang Xiu is already waiting for us. When we fall into the trap, are you still willing to deal with Lu Xun and Zhang Xiu? "


    Cheng Pu clenched his teeth and said, "when your highness is dead, we are so unknown that we don''t care about anything?"


    Zhou Yu said: "I have made it very clear about the consequences of the attack. Three, there''s no way. Bo Fu''s death makes everyone sad, but what''s the use of it? We need to know why Bofu did it. If we do it now, it''s against Bofu''s original intention. He doesn''t want us to join in the fight any more. "


    Han Dang has been silent.


    Because it''s hard to refute.


    In the end, he couldn''t help it. He snorted: "governor, we know what you mentioned. No one wants to involve his family, but we can''t do it because of this. "


    "In my opinion, you are just shirking, or deliberately frightening us."


    "You have outstanding intelligence. It''s not impossible to plan against Lu Xun. It may not be impossible to deal with Zhang Xiu. The reason why you do this is that you don''t want to do it. That''s why you say so much. ""There are consequences everywhere. There are possibilities everywhere."


    "It''s a fear of life and death!"


    Although Han Dang is also worried about his family, he is scornful of Zhou Yu''s words about the consequences.


    He didn''t want to!


    Even more unwilling!


    After hearing Han Dang''s words, Huang Gai solemnly said, "governor, I agree with Han Dang''s words. With the intelligence of Dadu governor, he is far superior to Lu Xun''s. If you want to do it, how can you possibly fail. Even if Zhang Xiu doubts, as long as we don''t leave evidence, there''s no problem. If you do this, are you really afraid of Zhang Xiu? If you are afraid of death, you will shirk everything. "


    They talked, but the words made Zhou Yu''s cheek twitch slightly.


    Good advice, three warm winter!


    It''s cold in June!


    Huang Gai and Han Dang''s words made Zhou Yu feel very disappointed. No one in the world can accuse him of being afraid of death. No one can accuse him of neglecting sun CE.


    He is not afraid of death!


    He also wants to deal with Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun.


    But the problem is that once you do it, it will involve the sun family and their families. These people are innocent. Just because of this, sun cecai committed suicide, so Zhou Yu did not want to do it.


    Zhou Yu looks embarrassed.


    Cheng Pu looks at Zhou Yu''s anger. He stares at Huang Gai and Han Dang and says, "don''t you know the kindness of Du Du and his highness? Don''t repeat what you said just now. I apologize to the governor. "


    "No!"


    Huang Gai shook his head and answered.


    Han Dang also refused to apologize and gritted his teeth: "unless, the governor of Dadu agrees to deal with Lu Xun and avenge his highness. Otherwise, I will never take back what I just said, and I will not admit my mistake. "


    Huang Gai said, "yes, I think so too."


    Cheng Pu turned to look at Zhou Yu and said, "governor Du, Huang Gai and Cheng Pu are rude people. Don''t worry about them. Your analysis just now is reasonable. Only Huang Gai and Cheng PU were in a hurry for a moment, so they could not choose what to say. "


    "I understand," Zhou said


    Seeing that today''s conversation was not suitable, Cheng Pu stopped talking and said, "governor, it''s late. Let''s go back first. If you spend a long time in the governor''s office, it''s easy to be suspicious. "


    "Good!"


    Zhou Yu nodded.


    Cheng Pu stares at Huang Gai and Han Dang and takes them away.


    Zhou Yu looks at the back of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang, but sighs in his heart. He knew that sun CE''s death had stimulated the generals of the state of Wu, but he knew that if he acted, everyone would be involved.


    This is what sun CE does not want to see.


    Otherwise, sun CE would not commit suicide.


    So for the sake of sun CE''s last wish, he didn''t want to get involved in the fight again.

 Chapter 996

    In fact, Zhou Yu didn''t want to seek revenge again. After all, the problem between sun CE and Lu Xun, he thinks, is a feud between the two sides. It''s normal that you kill me and I kill you.


    Of course, after Lu Xun forced Sun CE to die, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang joined forces to prepare for sun CE''s revenge. To deal with Lu Xun, this is actually tenable, and nothing, because hatred is derived from this.


    The key is that it involves the safety of sun CE''s family and Cheng Pu''s family. As long as Cheng Yu and others unite to deal with Lu Xun and even Zhang Xiu, once things leak out, it will not only be Cheng Pu and others'' personal problems, but will definitely involve their families.


    This is what Zhou Yu considered.


    Exactly, this is what sun CE didn''t want. Sun CE didn''t want his family to be implicated, so he chose to commit suicide.


    But Huang Gai, Han Dang and others think that he is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.


    This is something Zhou Yu can''t agree with.


    Zhou Yu doesn''t have to guess. He knows that Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang may have plans next.


    "Bo Fu, you left alone. How hard it is to keep me. It''s a taste that ordinary people can''t bear. You''re alive, coward! If I take revenge for you, if I want to deal with Zhang Xiu, it''s equivalent to taking everyone''s life. "


    "If I don''t get revenge for you, I''m not willing to."


    "How helpless!"


    Zhou Yu murmured to himself.


    His face showed an embarrassed expression, impetuous mood, how can not let calm. Because now, he is faced with a difficult choice. Even his spirit gradually decayed. He didn''t want to become an official.


    Now, it''s hard.


    Depressed, Zhou Yu took out his sword and put it on the desk in front of him. He murmured, "I have never been looked down upon in my life. But now, even my own people don''t believe me. They think I''m afraid of death. "


    "I, Zhou Yu, am not afraid of death!"


    When Zhou Yu spoke, he had a sharp look in his eyes. He was always beautiful.


    "Death, perhaps, is the best relief."


    "When they die, the hearts of the people of the state of Wu will be broken, and there will be no more pillars."


    "Zijing is dead!"


    "Bofu is dead!"


    "Zhongmou is dead!"


    "Damn me, too!"


    "I live to make everyone think that Wu still has hope and can plan. When I die, everyone can be saved, and I lose my last confidence and confidence, so I choose to die. "


    "Maybe that''s what cowards do. But I have no solution. "


    "Bofu, I''m coming!"


    At last, he had a bright smile on his face. Because once there is a decision in the heart, the burden in the heart will go away, the heart will be relaxed, and there will be no more burden.


    As soon as Zhou Yu closed his eyes, he began to work hard on his hands.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade cuts the neck, and the blood splashes out like a spring.


    "Ha ha..."


    Zhou Yu laughed, but as soon as the laughter came out, his voice stopped. Because the blood surged up into his throat, making him unable to speak any more. But a moment later, he fell back on the ground and quickly gathered a pool of blood in front of him.


    At this time, Zhou Yu had no breath at all.


    "Creak!"


    When the door was pushed open by a servant, a servant came in and saw Zhou Yu lying in a pool of blood. He opened his eyes and looked shocked. The attendant was silent for a moment. The next moment, he was already screaming and shouting: "Dadu Du died, Dadu Du committed suicide."


    The shrill sound of panic spread throughout the house.


    For a moment, the house was completely flustered.


    When the news spread completely, Zhou Yu''s family were all in a mess. The news of Zhou Yu''s suicide also quickly spread to the royal guards and reported to Zhang Xiu through Wang Yuezhi.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to learn that Zhou Yu had committed suicide.


    It is expected that sun CE committed suicide.


    Why did Zhou Yu commit suicide?


    Did you die for sun CE?


    In Zhang Xiu''s opinion, this is not the case. After all, sun CE is dead. If Zhou Yu is alive, he may be able to take good care of the sun family and the Zhou family. But Zhou Yu chose such extreme means.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Zhou Yu is very good. Why did he commit suicide suddenly? Does he have any letters left?"


    "No!"


    Wang Yue shook his head and replied.


    After a pause, Wang Yue suddenly said, "but before Zhou Yu committed suicide, he met Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang. According to the news from the royal guards, they went to Zhou Yu''s residence to see him. After staying for some time, they left Zhou Yu''s mansion. According to the royal guards who were monitoring outside the governor''s office at that time, when the three left, Huang Gai and Han Dang still looked angry. It should be the conflict between them, otherwise they would not be so angry. "After hearing this, Zhang Xiu pondered carefully in her heart.


    So there are some problems.


    Naturally, Zhang Xiu thought of sun CE who had committed suicide. The reason why Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang went together to see Zhou Yu must be for sun CE''s sake, or even for his revenge.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Jia Shangshu asked to see you."


    "Xuan"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    After a short time, Jia Xu had already entered, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu waved Jia Xu to sit down and said, "why did Wen he come here?"


    Jia Yu replied, "I''m here for the sake of Zhou Yu. According to the information gathered, especially Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang met with Zhou Yu together. After the three left, Zhou Yu committed suicide."


    "I believe that Cheng Pu''s three men must have wanted revenge because of sun CE''s suicide. However, Zhou Yu chose to refuse. Zhou Yu chose to refuse because he later committed suicide. If Zhou Yu meets Cheng Pu''s request, he will not commit suicide. "


    "In fact, the reason why Sun CE committed suicide is because he knew that Lu Xun wanted to seek revenge. He committed suicide in order to save the lives of his family and his own dignity."


    "Zhou Yu is a wise man. He knows sun CE''s intention clearly, and he doesn''t want to affect his family. Zhou Yu also knows that once they deal with Lu Xun or even his majesty, they will definitely involve other families, so Zhou Yu is not willing to


    Jia Xu had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "even I guess that Wu Fu, such as Huang Gai and Han Dang, may even blame Zhou Yu. In the end, Zhou Yu took extreme measures of suicide in order to avoid it."


    "Zhou Yu''s intention, on the one hand, is to sound the alarm for Cheng Pu and others; on the other hand, it is also to protect the sun family, the Zhou family and other family members from being involved."


    "I don''t agree with Zhou Yu''s methods. If he really wants to save the Wu family, he should step up and become an official, and suppress Cheng Pu and others. "


    Jia Xu said: "this is the strong."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Wenhe, if Zhou Yu becomes an official, his reputation will not be preserved. This man, in pursuit of fame and wealth, always has a pursuit and an idea. "


    Jia Xu nodded his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    After a pause, Jia Xu said: "the reason why I came here in a hurry is that Zhou Yu''s death is likely to lead to a complete riot among Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and people loyal to the sun family. They may deal with Lu Xun, or they may deal with your majesty. Please pay attention


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know!"


    Jia Xu added: "now things in the state of Wu are basically normal. According to the current progress, at most three to five months, Yangzhou counties can be pacified. When does your majesty intend to return to court? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "wait a second!"


    After hearing this, Jia Xu said no more, got up and left.


    Zhang Xiu calls Wang Yue and arranges people to closely monitor Huang Gai and others. At the same time, she dispatches the royal guards to protect Lu Xun''s safety, because Lu Xun is directly against sun CE and is easy to be targeted.

 Chapter 997

    Chengpu mansion.


    In the study.


    Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang are on their own. However, the expressions on Huang Gai''s and Han Dang''s faces were angry and unwilling. Because Zhou Yu''s refusal reduced the strength they could use, they were still indignant.


    Huang Gai clenched his fist and said, "if you want me to say, Zhou Yu is greedy for life and afraid of death. Otherwise, we will not shirk this and that. By doing so, he is taking himself out and everything is going well. "


    Han Dang said: "I agree with Gong Fu. This is absolutely Zhou Yu''s evasion. He and his highness are sworn brothers. Now that his highness is dead, he has forgotten all his hatred. What a white eyed wolf


    Huang Gai and Han Dang both resent Zhou Yu.


    Because in today''s situation, Zhou Yu''s philosophy and self-protection make them unhappy and despise Zhou Yu''s responsibility and conduct.


    But Cheng Pu said, "Gongfu, righteous. In fact, don''t blame Dudu. I understand his concerns. He did it to save everyone''s family. After all, there is nothing wrong with what the governor said


    Huang Gai said, "but we are not afraid of death."


    "I''m not afraid of death," Han Dang said


    Cheng Pu''s face said, "I know what you mean. But now that it''s over, what''s your attitude towards Lu Xun''s death or Zhang Xiu''s death? "


    "Lao Cheng, I suggest dealing with Lu Xun first!" Huang Gai bit his teeth and said angrily, "it''s not easy for us to deal with Zhang Xiu, but Lu Xun can''t let it go. So we have to take revenge, kill Lu Xun first. "


    Han Dang said: "Your Highness''s Revenge must not be denied. If your Highness''s hatred is ignored, how can we face the Lord. Revenge must be taken. "


    "Then revenge!"


    When Cheng Pu saw this, he said nothing more.


    Three people look at each other, face is a decidedly appearance, they all decided to start.


    For the three, they followed Sun Jian in the early years and sun CE later. They had already been sun''s ministers. Now, even if there are risks in dealing with Lu Xun, they are willing to do so.


    Huang Gai looked at Cheng Pu and said, "de Mou, of the three of us, you are the best at planning. Zhou Yu doesn''t want to cause trouble, so we have to rely on ourselves. What can you do? "


    "Let me think about it," Cheng said


    Cheng Pu couldn''t figure out how to deal with the current situation.


    Huang Gai and Han Dang sat down and did not disturb.


    The three were so silent.


    As time went by, suddenly there was a quick knock on the door outside the study, and the housekeeper said, "general, something''s wrong, something''s wrong."


    Cheng Pu said, "come in!"


    The door was pushed open with a creak, and the housekeeper entered in a hurry, saying: "the housekeeper, the governor committed suicide."


    Boom!!


    As soon as the words are uttered, they are like thunder in the clear sky, and they ring out in the ears of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang. Hearing this news one by one, they were all extremely shocked.


    Soon after they met Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu committed suicide.


    It''s shocking.


    Even more unexpected.


    After a long time, Cheng Pu recovered. He looked at the housekeeper and asked in a deep voice, "what''s the matter? Most governors are so good that they suddenly choose to commit suicide."


    "I don''t know!"


    The housekeeper shook his head and said, "I only know that the governor of Dadu committed suicide. Now the governor of Dadu has begun to handle the funeral for the governor of Dadu."


    "Go down!"


    Cheng Pu waved his hand and the housekeeper stepped down.


    Huang Gai frowned and said, "now it seems that we are a little sorry for Du Du. If you think about it carefully, it is most likely because of our words that most of the governors blame themselves. He''s not cowardly, he''s afraid of death, he really doesn''t want to implicate the innocent. "


    Zhou Yu was shocked by his suicide.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu chose to commit suicide.


    Cheng Pu said: "at that time, I stopped you two and told you not to push too hard. But what you said at that time really hurt Du Du''s heart. Well, the three of us are to blame


    Han Dang snorted and said, "don''t say anything good for Du Du, de Mou. Anyway, I insist on what I said before. The governor is a coward who is afraid of death. "


    "He is not afraid of death, even dare to commit suicide, why not resist, why not deal with Lu Xun?"


    "If Lu Xun dies, Zhang Xiu can''t find the person behind the scenes. Even if she suspects us, Zhang Xiu can''t help us. However, the governor chose to commit suicide, which was done by cowards. "


    Han Dang raised his head and threw his voice on the ground: "I would rather die vigorously than commit suicide like this. He would rather be killed on horseback than on bed. "


    "You..."


    When Cheng Pu heard Han Dang''s words, he shook his head.


    He stood up and said: "for the matter of planning to deal with Lu Xun, press the button for the moment. The governor has died. Now, let''s go to the governor''s house to express our condolence. In any case, Dadu is the Dadu of Wu. What''s more, Dadu would rather die than submit to Zhang Xiu. He is also a loyal man. "Huang Gai said, "what de Mou said is true."


    "I''m not going," Han said


    He looked down upon Zhou Yu''s practice, so he didn''t want to go.


    Cheng Pu is not reluctant, take Han Dang, quickly go to Zhou Yu''s Du Du Fu. However, in today''s Zhou Yu''s residence, the plaque of the governor''s office has been removed and the plaque of Zhou''s residence has been hung.


    By the time Cheng Pu and Han Dang arrived, they were already crying inside and outside the house, and Zhou Yu''s body had been put into the coffin. All the people in the Zhou family had put on their filial piety clothes and were crying.


    All of you are deeply grieved.


    Zhou Yu is the pillar of the Zhou family. If Zhou Yu dies, it means the pillar of the Zhou family collapses.


    When Cheng Pu took people to pay a visit, the Zhou family didn''t give him a good face. Because Zhou Yu committed suicide in his study after Cheng Pu and others met him.


    Cheng Pu and Huang Gai went out together without saying a word. But when they got to the gate of the Zhou family, they saw a carriage coming.


    The carriage stopped at the gate of the Zhou family and came down one after another.


    Huang Gai became angry.


    His hand was on his sword at his waist.


    Cheng Pu said in a deep voice: "Gong Fu, don''t be impulsive. Lu Xun''s side, someone close to protect, not impulsive. If you do it now, you are looking for your own way out. "


    Now Lu Xun is surrounded by a group of guards. Even if Huang Gai rushes up, it will be blocked immediately. It is impossible to assassinate Lu Xun.


    So Cheng Pu put his hand in the way.


    "Go, let''s go!"


    Cheng puphene said, pulling Huang Gai to leave in a hurry.


    Under the protection of the guards, Lu Xun came to Zhou Yu''s house to pay homage. After all, Zhou Yu was the former governor of the state of Wu, and Lu Xun''s coming to express his condolence at this time is to show his attitude.


    Lu Xun entered, did not get any good face, but for Lu Xun, this is not an important thing. Because he came to visit Zhou Yu just to show off.


    After condolence, Lu Xun turned and left.


    On the other side, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai return together. When they get back to their study, Huang Gai can''t wait to say, "Yigong, who do you think we met when we came out to mourn the governor?"


    Han Dang said: "is it Zhang Xiu?"


    Huang Gai shook his head and said, "it''s not Zhang Xiu, but Lu Xun. He forced his highness to death, and now the governor of Dadu also died. Fortunately, he went to mourn. At that time, I really wanted to rush up and kill Lu Xun. But Lu Xun''s side guards are many, cannot approach. Even if I go, I can only scare the snake. "


    Han Dang clenched his fist and said, "what a pity, what a pity! If I had been there, with the strength of the three of us, maybe I could have killed Lu Xun. As long as you kill Lu Xun, you are willing to die. "


    "It''s already happened, and it''s no use regretting," Cheng said. But when I went to pay tribute to governor Dadu today, I came up with a way, which may be feasible. "

 Chapter 998

    Huang Gai said, "what can I do?"


    Han Dang is also staring at Cheng Pu, waiting for Cheng Pu''s reply.


    Cheng Pu said: "after his highness committed suicide, Lu Xun did not go to mourn. After all, there was hatred between his highness and Lu Xun. But now, after Du Du committed suicide, Lu Xun went to mourn in person. It can be seen that Lu Xun wanted to use it to buy people''s hearts. So in my opinion, let''s just pretend to die to attract Lu Xun to express his condolence. "


    "It''s up to me to feign death."


    "After I pretended to be dead, my family set up a funeral hall, and you two came to mourn me and preside over the funeral for me. Besides, we should ambush good swordsmen in our house. "


    "Bet on Lu Xun to offer his condolence!"


    Cheng Pu''s eyes showed a grim look and said: "as long as it''s Lu Xun who comes to mourn, we will mobilize everyone to surround and kill Lu Xun. Of course, if it''s Zhang Xiu, it''s better to kill her with her. Zhang Xiu has destroyed the state of Wu. Zhang Xiu should be killed. If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, I''m sorry, your highness. "


    "Wonderful


    Huang Gai''s eyes brightened when he heard it.


    Han Dang said: "this method is really good. In the current situation, it is the only way to attract Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun. Even if we do, it''s worth dying. Because without Zhang Xiu, the state of Qin will not last long. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, the housekeeper''s voice rang out.


    Immediately, the housekeeper came in, saluted Cheng Pu, and said, "master, our people just sent back the news that Zhang Xiu had left the military camp and went to the residence of the governor of Dadu to mourn."


    "I see!"


    When Cheng Pu heard this, he waved his hand to ask the housekeeper to step down.


    Cheng Pu looked at Huang Gai and Han Dang and said, "you two, do you hear me? After Du Du committed suicide, Zhang Xiu also went in person. Obviously, Zhang Xiu just wants to show her benevolence and morality in order to attract people. It is expected that not only Zhang Xiu, but also Lu Xun may come. Whoever comes first will be killed. This time, we''ll use the trick. "


    "Yes, that''s it."


    Huang Gai gritted his teeth.


    "This time, we must win, we must succeed," Han said


    Cheng Pu said, "you two, go back. Tonight, I will send all my people to my house. Tomorrow, I will arrange for the news of suicide to come out. At that time, you will come straight to mourn and then preside over the funeral. "


    Huang Gai and Han Dang answered immediately.


    After they left, they went back to their residence and arranged to go on.


    Until that night, the Huang family and the Han family quietly arranged for people to leave their residence, and they all went to Cheng Pu''s residence. This seems to have happened secretly, but in fact, the royal guards of Wuquan are all over the city. So Huang Gai and Han Dang''s seemingly covert actions were detected by the royal guards and reported to them.


    However, Wu Quan got the news that it was past midnight, so he didn''t report it. It was not until the next morning that Wu Quan went to the barracks and reported to Wang Yue the news he had received last night.


    For the Huang family and Han family, they gathered in Cheng Pu''s residence, but they couldn''t see any action at the moment. So Wang Yue didn''t immediately arrange for someone to report it. He just marked the key point of the matter and prepared to send it back to Zhang Xiu when there was news later.


    The information he received will not be delivered immediately unless it is particularly urgent.


    After all, there are too many news every day. If every news comes to him, he will report it immediately. Even if he doesn''t feel trouble, Zhang Xiu will definitely feel trouble.


    At about midnight, Wang Yue was dealing with the latest information he had collected. When he classified all the information, another piece of news came to him. After Wang Yue took it, he looked at it with a look of surprise on his face.


    Cheng Pu also committed suicide.


    Chip''s dead, too.


    It''s a little strange.


    Wang Yue would not have been surprised if it had not happened last night. However, he received a message from Wu Quan that Huang Gai and Han Dang had mobilized a lot of private soldiers to Chengpu mansion. Under such a premise, Cheng Pu died suddenly, which made Wang no doubt. After all, as the leader of the Royal Guards for a long time, Wang Yue also had considerable judgment.


    Wang Yue thinks about it and thinks it''s unusual, so he immediately leaves his office tent and goes to Zhang Xiu''s Chinese army tent. As soon as he sees Zhang Xiu, he immediately reports Cheng Pu''s news.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    It''s interesting.


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, if there was no military deployment last night, Cheng Pu''s suicide can also be regarded as following sun CE and Zhou Yu. But now, it''s different. I doubt that this may be Cheng Pu''s plan. "


    "Of course


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are fixed.


    He has always been sensitive to such things. Therefore, when we get the information collected by Wang Yue, we have a judgment. After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Xiu said, "go and arrange for Lu Xun to come.""Here it is


    When Wang Yue got the order, he immediately went to inform him.


    After a short time, Lu Xun came to the camp, bowed and said, "humble Lu Xun, meet your majesty."


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    After Lu Xun was seated, Zhang Xiu said, "do you know the news of Cheng Pu''s suicide?"


    "I know!"


    Lu Xun nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think of it?"


    Lu Xun flashed a bright light in his eyes and said, "tell your majesty that you think sun CE and Zhou Yu are dead. But Cheng Pu is not. It''s very likely that Cheng Pu is pretending to die. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Zhang Xiu praises Lu Xun''s judgment. Lu Xun doesn''t know what happened to Huang Gai and Han dangbing last night. If Lu Xun can make such a judgment, it is already extremely accurate.


    Lu Xun solemnly said, "please tell your majesty that when Zhou Yu committed suicide yesterday, he went to the Zhou family to express his condolence. When he arrived, he met Cheng Pu and Huang Gai. At that time, Huang Gai''s hands were already on the hilt of the sword, and he looked like he wanted to kill me. Because of Cheng Pu''s stop, Huang Gai stopped and left in a hurry. "


    "I''ve been in Jiangdong, and I''m familiar with Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang."


    "The three are wearing one pair of trousers."


    "They all carry things together, and they are very loyal to the sun family. After sun CE''s death, they must want to kill the humble officials. So it''s impossible for Cheng Pu to commit suicide without killing me. "


    "What''s more, Cheng Pu is the brains of the three. If Cheng PU decides to commit suicide, Huang Gai and Han Dang, as Cheng Pu brothers, can''t have no action. "


    Lu Xun said solemnly: "the only explanation is that Cheng Pu pretends to be dead. He wants to take this opportunity to let me follow Zhou Yu''s example and go to mourn Cheng Pu again, and then take the opportunity to kill me. Only in this way can Cheng Pu have a chance to kill me. "


    "Good, smart!"


    Zhang Xiu had a look of approval.


    Lu Xun''s analysis can be described as extremely accurate, and he has sorted out things clearly.


    This is Lu Xun''s talent, just because before Wu was Sun CE, Lu Xun didn''t become an official, didn''t show his talent, so he didn''t show his fame.


    Lu Xun said modestly, "Your Majesty has praised me falsely."


    Zhang Xiu also no longer conceals, way: "I still get news, last night.". Huang Gai and Han Dang sent soldiers to the Cheng family. Today, there are many forces in the Cheng family. "


    Lu Xun said: "that must be the case. It''s to kill the humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it may not be you. Besides, it may also be me. Because at that time, I also went to mourn Zhou Yu. You take your guard to mourn. In addition, you will summon me to say that I will come later and I will mourn Cheng Pu with you. "


    Lu Xun said: "Your Majesty, this is quite dangerous. It''s no harm to go there in a humble position, but in case your majesty goes there, you can''t afford to do anything wrong. What''s more, since they want to ambush the minister and his majesty, when they know that his majesty will also go, they will certainly wait for his majesty to arrive and fight together. "


    "Just keep them waiting, and it''s not really dangerous!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I''m deliberately giving them a chance to lead the snake out of the hole. If these people do not fight, there will be no sufficient reason to deal with them. But if they do, everything will be different. "


    "I understand


    When Lu Xun saw this, he didn''t have to say much. He should make Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. After that, he left the camp and went back to his assassin''s residence. He mobilized his guards and then went to Cheng Pu''s residence first.

 Chapter 999

    Lu Xun took the first step and took people to Cheng Pu''s home. Today, Cheng Pu''s family is already a piece of plain clothes. All of them are dressed in white and look sad.


    Huang Gai and Han Dang are among them.


    However, they are sad on the surface, but in fact, they have expectations in their eyes.


    They are looking forward to the arrival of Lu Xun. This time, it is to kill Lu Xun, not to kill Lu Xun, never give up. Of course, if you can kill Zhang Xiu together, it''s the best.


    With the passage of time, near the end of the time, at the entrance of the gate, a servant in plain clothes flew into the camp and said, "general, here we are. Lu Xun''s carriage is outside the mansion."


    "Ready!"


    When Huang Gai heard this, he gave an order immediately.


    At this moment, Huang Gai, Han Dang and the other attendants around the hall all looked solemn. The people in Chengpu''s family are ready to kill. They are all ready to fight.


    It wasn''t long before I saw that Lu Xun had entered with a team of guards.


    There are more than ten guards around Lu Xun.


    "Your Majesty has an order!"


    As soon as Lu Xun entered the courtyard, he was already shouting before he got close to the hall. The reason why he did this was to prevent Han Dang from killing him as soon as he got close.


    In this way, we can stabilize Huang Gai and others.


    After Lu Xun spoke, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others were stunned, but they didn''t immediately revolt. Instead, they knelt down on one knee with a solemn look. In fact, even if they don''t kneel down, it''s nothing, but Huang Gai kneels down one by one for a while.


    Lu Xun stepped forward and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty has told me that Cheng Pu is a tiger minister in the east of the Yangtze River. His loyalty is admirable. Therefore, I will send my official to mourn first, and later your majesty will come to mourn general Cheng Pu personally. Now, I''m here, waiting for your Majesty''s arrival. With your majesty, I''d like to express my condolence to general Cheng PU. "


    When Huang Gai heard this, he immediately gave thanks and stood up with a group of people. At this moment, Huang Gai''s heart is also vaguely excited, because Zhang Xiu is coming, so this is the best opportunity to kill Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun.


    Can kill Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun together.


    Huang Gai looks at Han Dang and shakes his head, indicating that Han Dang should not move rashly for the time being.


    Han Dang knows.


    With patience, he stood by quietly like a piece of wood.


    Huang Gai stares at Lu Xun. He doesn''t hide his dislike. He says coldly, "Lu Xun, no one thought that you should become the governor of Yangzhou. You are the biggest winner in the whole kingdom of Wu


    In his words, there is irony.


    It was done on purpose.


    He did not hide his hostility to Lu Xun, because that was what they should have reacted to. If you have a good attitude towards Lu Xun, it is easy to have problems and make Lu Xun suspicious.


    Lu Xun chuckled and said, "it''s your Majesty''s trust to be a governor of Yangzhou."


    Huang Gai snorted and stopped talking.


    They were together, waiting quietly.


    About a quarter of an hour later, I heard the call from outside the mansion that the emperor was coming. For a moment, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others were all nervous, because they had been waiting for Zhang Xiu for such a long time.


    As long as Zhang Xiu comes, he can be killed and avenged.


    This is their chance.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu took the royal guards such as Wang Yue and Deng Zhan, as well as a group of forbidden guards. Behind Zhang Xiu, there were more than 30 forbidden guards. These more than 30 people, all dressed in armour, all of them were murderous and arrayed in the courtyard.


    Zhang Xiu strides in. He goes to Lu Xun''s side and nods to Lu Xun. His eyes fall on the coffin in the middle of the hall.


    Huang Gai and Han Dang are on the left and right.


    At this moment, Huang Gai and Han Dang had a solemn look on their faces, and they already had the air of killing in their eyes. But Zhang Xiu forward, there are royal guards around at any time, so it is impossible to kill Zhang Xiu by surprise.


    However, Huang Gai never had the idea of killing Zhang Xiu by surprise. As long as Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun arrived, this time, they had the idea of killing Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Suddenly, a loud voice came out of the hall.


    With the sound coming out, a group of soldiers rushed out from the cloister in the yard. These soldiers quickly blocked the gate, and then surrounded Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun.


    Immediately Cheng Pu came out.


    Cheng Pu''s face was full of pride and said, "Zhang Xiu, this is heaven. If you don''t go, there''s no way to hell. Our lowest plan is to kill Lu Xun who came to mourn with my life of feigning death. If you come, you are the best. I didn''t expect that you really came, and you really came with Lu Xun. This is God''s help. Let''s take revenge for your highness. "


    Huang Gai clang a, already pulled out the sword between the waist, say: "Zhang Xiu, you must die today.""Zhang Xiu, your end has come."


    Han Dang also pulled out his sword. His eyes were full of excitement. Their plan is to deal with Zhang Xiu. Now they have the chance to kill Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun, so they are very excited.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she was not nervous at all. She said with a smile, "Cheng Pu, do you really think your plan is perfect? In my opinion, your plan is full of loopholes. No way. You don''t have a mastermind. A group of people who play with swords and guns have designed a trick to ambush me, so it''s normal to ambush me like this. You know, why I came with Lu Xun in person is to lead the snake out of the hole and let you take the initiative. Otherwise, it''s really hard to kill you. One by one, they are loyal to the sun family, but they are unwilling to surrender. I can''t sleep day and night because of this disaster. Now, if you want to kill me, I can kill you openly. This is an opportunity. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave a big drink.


    Boom!!


    There was a violent crash. In a flash, the door of Cheng''s family, which was not completely opened, was directly knocked open. A group of soldiers swarmed in and killed them from outside.


    At this moment, the Cheng family was surrounded again.


    Seeing this, Cheng Pu''s face changed slightly. He didn''t dare to delay any longer and ordered: "kill!"


    With Cheng Pu''s order, the soldiers of the state of Wu began to fight and went straight to Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun. They wanted to kill Zhang Xiu and Lu Xun first. As long as they achieved this goal, they were successful.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she raised a touch of disdain at the corner of her mouth. If there is Zhou Yu''s plan, or if Zhou Yu tried to deal with Zhang Xiu by means of feigning death at the beginning, there may still be a chance to affect Zhang Xiu.


    However, there is no real master. Cheng Pu and others are just a group of brave people.


    No wonder.


    Han Dang is already carrying a sword, directly to Zhang Xiu to kill. But before he got close to Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue had already killed him step by step. The Epee in Wang Yue''s hand came out of its sheath and swept away. The edge of the sword is simple, but it''s straight in. Han Dang can''t avoid it. He can only block it by lifting the sword.


    "Dang!"


    When the two swords collided with each other, Han Dang''s face changed greatly. He only felt that the hand holding the sword had a strong impact, and he could not stop it. He stepped back.


    But Wang Yue had already caught up with him. His Epee was like gangrene attached to bones. He swung it again and cut it off from Han Dang''s head.

 Chapter 1000

    Wang Yue''s offensive has always been extremely fierce. As soon as he started, it was a huge and ferocious offensive, one sword after another. There was no room for him to accept or ease.


    So as soon as he has the advantage, the move is like a torrent, continuous, and no one can stop it. When he bullied his body, the sword that fell on Han Dang''s head was ready enough.


    Han Dang quickly raised his sword.


    "Dang!"


    When two swords collided, the sound of the collision shook the eardrum, and the sound sounded like thunder.


    Endless power gushed out. Han Dang had no room to resist. The sword in his hand had already fallen out. The Epee continued to fall and fell on Han Dang''s neck.


    "Yes


    Sharp blade across, the next moment, Han Dang head fly out, a canopy of blood on the neck like a spring splashing out.


    Han Dang fell to the ground.


    It''s just face to face. Han Dang has been killed.


    On the other side, Zhang Xiu rushed forward with her sword. In a twinkling of an eye, he had reached Huang Gai''s body. He no longer has the overlord gun, but he has the strength of Longquan sword. Although Zhang Xiu''s swordsmanship is not as good as Wang Yue''s, with a sword in hand, Zhang Xiu''s swordsmanship moves quickly, which makes Huang Gai a little confused even if he resists.


    When martial arts reaches a certain level, it means that one method can be applied to all kinds of methods, and it can be learned by analogy.


    The sword in Zhang Xiu''s hand, quick move.


    After only ten moves, Huang Gai fell into a bad situation and showed his flaws. Zhang Xiu got up and got close to Huang Gai. She stabbed Huang Gai''s heart easily.


    With Zhang Xiu''s sword blade drawn out, Huang Gai leaned back and fell to the ground, but Huang Gai fell to the ground with a look of incomparable helplessness and unwillingness.


    Dead!


    Just die!


    He never touched Zhang Xiu''s clothes.


    A moment later, Huang Gai had lost his breath, and Zhang Xiu killed quickly with her sword. The private soldiers brought by Huang Gai, even though there were many people, could not carry the attack.


    In particular, Huang Gai and Han Dang were killed one after another. These Wu soldiers were even more flustered and killed one after another.


    Cheng Pu took his soldiers to fight, but he saw his soldiers being killed. Especially when Huang Gai and Han Dang are killed, Cheng Pu himself is in trouble. In such a dangerous situation, Cheng Pu is now desperate. His plan, for Zhang Xiu, is just a scratch.


    Even his plan, in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, is to die.


    It doesn''t make any difference.


    Cheng Pu is helpless in his heart. He abandons commanding soldiers and rushes directly to Zhang Xiu with a golden sword. But before he rushes to Zhang Xiu''s body, Deng Zhan rushes forward with a flash of lightning. When he gets close to Cheng Pu, a sword is delivered.


    The sharp edge of the sword runs through Cheng Pu''s heart.


    A face to face, Cheng Pu fell dead.


    After Cheng Pu''s death, the slaughter continued. None of the people who took part in the encirclement and killing of Zhang Xiu were left behind, and all of them were slaughtered. Even the Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang families, who were involved in the murder of Zhang Xiu, were wiped out.


    Zhang Xiu''s subsequent affairs are all handed over to Lu Xun.


    With Lu Xun at his disposal, he can rest assured.


    When the situation of Wu state comes to this stage, in fact, Zhang Xiu is quite relieved. Because sun CE, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, as well as the main generals who were loyal to the sun family, had also been killed. For the time being, there was no one in the whole kingdom of Wu who could make trouble.


    This is the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    However, Zhang Xiu still did not withdraw immediately.


    Stay in Wu for a while and give Huang Zhong, Zhang Yan and others some time.


    To sweep the counties.


    In August, the weather gradually turned cool, and Donglai County, Qingzhou, has now become the temporary capital of Wei. Because the east side of Donglai county is close to the sea and has hinterland and depth, at least the Cao family who retreated to Huang County of Donglai county can be stabilized temporarily.


    Especially in recent months, Zhang Xiu was busy attacking the state of Wu, which relieved Cao ang a lot of pressure.


    Today, Cao ang is under a lot of pressure.


    He was not only burdened with the deep blood sea of Cao Cao''s death, but also with the pressure of defending the state of Wei and rejuvenating the state of Wei. Under such pressure, even though Cao ang was young, in a short period of time, Cao ang also became mature.


    Fortunately, with the help of Xun Yu and Xun you, the state of Wei has accumulated some strength.


    After all, the state of Wei has its roots.


    Even if Xu Chu, Xia Houdun, Cao Cao, Dian Wei and others were damaged, in fact, the civil service system of the state of Wei was still stable without much influence, so it could operate as before.


    On this day, Cao ang was dealing with government affairs in the temporary palace.


    He''s doing his best now.


    Cao ang had to ask about all the big and small things in order to understand them carefully.


    When Cao ang was busy, a servant came in and reported, "Your Majesty, Mr. Guo, please see you."


    "PleaseCao ang said.


    As the servant went down to inform him, Guo Jia hurried in. Today''s Guo Jia is no longer the prodigal image of the past, and is quite rigorous. Since the death of Cao Cao, Guo Jia is no longer what he used to be. Because Cao Cao knew that he understood him, Guo Jia could be unscrupulous, but once the emperor and a courtier were here, Guo Jia was not like before.


    Seeing Cao ang, Guo Jia saluted respectfully.


    Cao ang said with a light smile, "it''s not necessary to be filial. You can be at will."


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, the ceremony can not be abolished."


    Cao ang didn''t force him, so he said, "what important news did you get from fengxiao?"


    "Yes


    Guo Jia said, "I have just received the news from the state of Wu. It''s about Zhang Xiu."


    As soon as Cao ang heard this, he became nervous. Even his body leaned forward slightly, and his face looked solemn. He solemnly said, "fengxiao, how is the war going in the state of Wu? Can sun CE, king of Wu, stop Zhang Xiu?"


    Guo Jia sighed with a sigh and said, "not only did he fail to stop Zhang Xiu, but Sun CE, the king of Wu, had been defeated. The whole state of Wu has been destroyed and people have died. "


    This is the latest news.


    When Guo Jia saw the news, his heart was also extremely shocked, because he never thought that the state of Wu, which was blocked by the Yangtze River, was easily broken by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Ang''s breathing also became rapid. He said in a deep voice, "what''s the detailed battle report?"


    Guo Jiali carved it on the ground.


    Cao ang took it over, opened the letter and read it quickly. The more he looked down, the more shocked he was. Because the information sent back by the sentinel of the state of Wei is almost the war of the whole state of Wu.


    Cao ang was surprised at Zhang Xiu''s strength. The warship he had trained for a few months was easy. He defeated the warships under the command of Wu Wang sun CE and won, thus laying the foundation for victory.


    Even more surprised, Zhang Xiu easily won Wu County, and finally landed in sun CE.


    In particular, sun CE and Zhou Yu died one after another.


    The death of these people made the whole state of Wu have no one to rebel against Zhang Xiu. Under such a premise, Cao Ang''s heart sank to the bottom of the valley and said in a deep voice: "after the fall of the state of Wu, Zhang Xiu''s next soldiers are either the state of Jin or the state of Wei. In fact, nowadays, neither Wei nor Jin is Zhang Xiu''s rival. So now, we have to think about coping strategies to plan against Zhang Xiu. "


    Guo Jiayan said: "Your Highness is wise!"


    This is exactly the purpose of Guo Jia''s presence, that is, to prepare in advance to compete with Zhang Xiu''s army.

 Chapter 1001

    Cao ang thought about it and immediately arranged for people to call Xun Yu, Xun you and Cheng Yu.


    This is the man Cao ang relies on today.


    In fact, this is the most reassuring person for Cao ang, because these are all old people, people his father once trusted. When he came to Cao ang, he also believed these people unconditionally.


    Soon, Xun Yu, Xun you and Cheng Yu entered.


    Today''s Cheng Yu is even older.


    After all, with the state of Wei, but also worry about everything, very hard work, so Cheng Yu is aging fast. After he entered, he saw Guo Jia with Xun Yu and Xun you and said, "Your Highness, is it the news from Wu state?"


    "Yes


    Cao ang nodded and said, "now the state of Wu has been destroyed."


    With that, Cao ang handed the letter to Cheng Yu. After Cheng Yu finished reading it, he showed it to Xun Yu and Xun you in turn. After reading the news, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu looked very solemn.


    It''s too bad.


    In the case of the great loss of Wei''s strength, the destruction of Wu lost the fetters of Zhang Xiu.


    Cheng Yu sighed and said: "originally, we all thought that sun CE could hold Zhang Xiu. But now it seems that it has failed. It can be predicted that the next war in Wei will start again. The Qin army stationed at the border will be ready to move again. "


    During this period of time, Zhang jaw rarely attacked Qingzhou. After all, he was the only one in charge. Therefore, Zhang jaw consolidated his control in Yanzhou, Yuzhou and other places to ensure that there was no trouble.


    After all, the main battlefield is Wu.


    Xun you said, "it''s useless to ponder over how Wu failed. No matter how Zhang Xiu defeated sun CE, now the state of Wu is gone. "


    "Now Zhang Xiu is about to go north, whether Zhang Xiu is going to attack Wei or Yuan Shao first. For us, we all have to be prepared. Because Yuan Shao was exterminated, it was difficult for the state of Wei to gain a foothold. "


    "So now, I suggest that the envoys should be arranged again to make an alliance with Yuan Shao. This time, however, it was necessary to make a real alliance. It was not like Yuan Shao in the last time. When things happened, he did not care about the life or death of the state of Wei. Instead, he was trapped in the state of Jin. The next war is also a matter of life and death for the state of Wei. "


    Xun you said in a deep voice: "if Zhang Xiu''s army can''t be stopped, the state of Wei may be overthrown."


    Cao ang said: "I also agree with Gongda''s analysis and alliance. But now, what we have to consider is how to make an alliance, who should be sent to make an alliance with Yuan Shao in Yecheng. "


    Xun Yu said: "please go to Zhuge Liang. He went to lobby sun CE at the beginning, so sun CE resisted Zhang Xiu for a while. Zhuge Liang has three inches of eloquence, especially other hope that Liu Bei can enhance his strength. It is expected that Zhuge Liang will go. "


    Cao angyan said: "what Mr. Wen Ruo said is true. In that case, Mr. Wen Ruo went to Liu Bei''s barracks to inform Liu Bei, and then asked Zhuge Liang to go north."


    "Here it is


    Xun Yu responded directly.


    This is not a difficult thing.


    Now Liu Bei''s army is stationed outside the city of Huangxian, with a separate camp. Cao ang supplied all the food and grass in his army. After all, Liu Bei had no food.


    Cao ang discussed the follow-up with Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others, and then dismissed them.


    When Xun Yu arrived at Liu Bei''s barracks and entered, he met Liu Bei in the Chinese Army''s tent. He didn''t beat around the Bush and told the story of the killing of sun CE and Zhou Yu and the collapse of the state of Wu.


    Liu Bei was confused.


    Sun CE is dead!


    Zhou Yu is dead!


    The kingdom of Wu is destroyed!


    Zhang Xiu is pushing the state of Wu, especially the state of Wu. It is reasonable to say that even if Zhang Xiu can defeat sun CE, she will not win the state of Wu in such a short time.


    Now Liu Bei''s intelligence channels are all paralyzed, because after he came to Qingzhou, he had no source of information, so he still had some doubts in his heart and asked again, "Wen Ruo, is sun CE really dead?"


    "It''s dead!"


    Xun Yu solemnly said, "don''t you believe me, Xuande Gong?"


    "I believe it," Liu said


    Xun Yu continued: "I have brought a letter about the details of the state of Wu." With that, Xun Yu handed the copied war report to Liu Bei for checking. After Liu Bei finished checking, he turned pale and handed the news to Zhuge Liang.


    Xun Yu didn''t disturb him and let Zhuge Liang check it.


    After reading it, Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart. He went to lobby sun CE to resist Zhang Xiu. His original intention was to think that sun CE''s strength was strong, and there was a long river and a natural moat that could resist Zhang Xiu''s army, but now he can''t.


    The kingdom of Wu was destroyed.


    Xun Yu said: "in addition to delivering the news, I have another thing. We think that after Zhang Xiu swept Wu, the next step is to target Wei or attack Jin. However, the situation is unfavorable. ""Kong Ming has a good tongue, so his highness hopes that he can go north to Yecheng and persuade yuan Shaoneng to make an alliance with us sincerely, keep watch and help each other, and fight against Zhang Xiu."


    Xun Yu said: "if Yuan Shao is still as afraid of Zhang Xiu as he was last time, then I''m afraid that he will be in a state of disrepair. This is a matter of great importance. So I''ll tell Xuande in person and ask him to make a decision. "


    Liu Bei hated Zhang Xiu.


    He hoped that Zhang Xiu would be defeated. Liu Bei, in particular, had his own judgment. He clearly knew that Wu was destroyed, and then Wei and Jin were the next. If Wei and Jin were not united, they would be destroyed.


    Without any hesitation, Liu Bei said, "Wen, please rest assured that Kong Ming will be sent to Yecheng today."


    "Thank you very much."


    After thanking him, Xun Yu didn''t stay, so he got up and left.


    After Xun Yu left, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming, now you have to work hard to go to Yecheng in the state of Jin. It concerns the state of Wei, the state of Jin, and our life and death. So, you have to work hard. "


    Zhuge Liang shook his head and said with a smile, "my Lord, you''re welcome. It''s a matter of humble duty. Now that the country is in crisis, I can do my part and do my best. "


    Zhuge Liang is a wise man.


    He knows the current situation, and the only way is to unite with Yuan Shao to form an alliance.


    This is the only way to have a chance of life.


    After Zhang Xiu destroyed the state of Wu, it is not polite to say that Zhang Xiu alone against the state of Wei and the state of Jin, it is the result of rolling, can push all the way. Even if the two sides are united, it is quite difficult for Zhang Xiu to join the army. So now, it is necessary to promote the unity of the two sides, otherwise all this will be in vain.


    Liu Bei said: "in the past few months since Zhang Xiu went to Jingzhou, our troops have also recovered. Cao Ang''s forces have also recovered a lot. Kong Ming, it''s up to you whether the state of Chu can continue, whether we can return to Yanzhou or even go to Jingzhou. Now let you follow me, I''m sorry for you. "


    At this time, Liu Bei was incoherent.


    There''s no order.


    Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Bei was a little nervous, so he didn''t take it seriously. With a slight smile, he said, "my Lord, Zhuge Liang is happy to follow him. Even though the current situation is unfavorable, I still have no regrets. Because in this world, only the Lord knows me, and I believe in me. It''s my honor for Zhuge Liang that I can serve the Lord. "


    Liu Bei was moved and said, "it''s also my honor to have Kong Ming here."


    Both kings and ministers cherish each other.


    Zhuge Liang, however, did not delay much. After asking Liu Bei to pay attention, he left Huang County in a hurry, and then headed all the way north to Ye County in the north.

 Chapter 1002

    Yecheng is the imperial city of Jin.


    It is reasonable to say that the political center of a country like Yecheng should be prosperous and prosperous with people coming and going. But today, Yecheng is gradually declining, the number of traders is decreasing, and the population is also very large.


    In fact, it is not only the capital of Yecheng, but also the whole territory of Jin. Many people have quietly left their hometown and left Jin for Qin, unwilling to stay in Jin.


    The passing of population also led to the decline of Jin''s national strength. After all, this era is not a contest based on cutting-edge technology, nor is it a battle of small groups of soldiers, but an era of cold weapons. Population is the standard to measure a country''s strength.


    But Yuan Shao himself died.


    After Dajin bank, it did not mention the collapse of Dajin bank and did not compensate the people. In addition, Yuan Shao''s Treasury was short of money, which not only did not reduce taxes, but also increased taxes, which made life more difficult for the people.


    As a result, countless people left their homes.


    Yuan Shao didn''t pay attention to all this, because now he has more than 100000 troops under his command.


    With the army, Yuan Shao believed that he had the strength.


    When Yuan Shao saw that Cao ang had stabilized the situation in the Wei state, he left it alone. Anyway, although Cao Cao is dead, at least Cao ang is still the king of Wei. If Cao ang is still there, he can continue to restrain Zhang Xiu.


    However, by the end of July, the news of the state of Wu was also sent back, and Yuan Shao also knew the news of the collapse of the state of Wu. But Yuan Shao didn''t take it seriously after he knew it. Anyway, he couldn''t help sun CE.


    The only pity for Yuan Shao is that sun CE died so soon.


    I didn''t try to restrain Zhang Xiu.


    If sun CE can restrain Zhang Xiu for a period of time, or even weaken Zhang Xiu, then everything will be fine. However, even so, Yuan Shao never paid attention to it. Anyway, life can go on.


    He worked hard for a period of time, but Zhang Xiu''s focus was no longer on the state of Jin, so he began to relax. He had less time to deal with government affairs. He left most of the government affairs to Jushi, and Yuan Shao himself was addicted to the harem. All day luxury, all day immersed in a group of women, drinking for pleasure, ignore government affairs.


    Such a situation makes us feel helpless.


    After several times of persuasion, he did not persuade any more. After all, persuasion was useless. That is to say, he spent more time and handled more government affairs, hoping that the state of Jin would recover earlier.


    Once upon a time, Ju Shu bet with Guo Tu, and Ju Shu bet on the national fortune. But at last Yuan Shao released Guo Tu, which led to the collapse of the whole Jin State and the decline of Jin.


    He had no choice but to work hard as a papermaker to make Jin better.


    Yuan Shao didn''t say anything about the complete collapse of the state of Wu, but when he heard this, he said, "heaven is dead, Jin is great.". The reason is very simple. After the fall of Wu, the strength of Qin became stronger.


    He had no choice but to help Wu.


    We can only adjust the army as soon as possible and enhance its combat effectiveness.


    Only in this way can we stabilize Dajin.


    Therefore, during this period of time, it can be said that we are extremely worried. It was only a few months, his temples had been frosty, and he had countless white hair, because everything was on him, which made him gasp.


    On this day, Jufu was in Yamen.


    When Jushi was working, a servant came in from outside the hall of the government office. He bowed and said, "my Lord, Zhuge Liang, the envoy of Wei and Chu, has come to see you."


    "Please


    When I heard that, I immediately gave an order.


    Although the state of Chu is dead in name, Liu Bei is still alive, so the state of Chu is still there.


    Soon, Zhuge Liang entered.


    Today''s Zhuge Liang, dressed in a white robe, with a feather fan and a silk scarf, holds a goose feather fan. He is elegant and has a sword eyebrow. He feels like a spring breeze.


    He waved his hand and said, "Kong Ming, sit down!"


    For Liu Bei''s adviser Zhuge Liang, Ju Shi also knows that even though Liu Bei has been defeated repeatedly in recent years, he can''t deny Zhuge Liang''s ability, because anyone who goes to war with Zhang Xiu can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    No wonder Zhuge Liang.


    After Zhuge Liang lifted his robe and sat down, he said slowly, "Duke Ju, do you know the current situation in Jiangdong?"


    "I''ve heard a little about it," he said


    Zhuge Liang gently shook his goose feather fan and continued: "this time the state of Wu was destroyed. Sun CE, Zhou Yu and others hope that the whole state of Wu has been brought into Zhang Xiu''s hands. Now the strength of Zhang Xiu has become more and more powerful and irresistible. No matter the state of Chu, the state of Wei, or the state of Jin, Zhang Xiu''s army could not be stopped. If they fight separately, the final result can only be annihilated by Zhang Xiu one by one. Duke Ju, do you think so? "


    Ju Zhixin knew this truth, but he didn''t admit it immediately. Instead, he said with a smile: "Kong Ming, that''s what he said, but our country has a strong foundation in Jin, and it recovers quickly. Today, the number of people with armour in Jin is no less than 100000. The number of string controllers is no less than 20000 or 30000. Now that Jin''s strength has recovered, it can fight against Zhang Xiu. Even if the state of Jin was alone against Daqin, it was not afraid. ""Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, show disdain.


    Ju Zhixin knew that Zhuge Liang certainly didn''t agree. However, he wanted to hear Zhuge Liang''s opinions, so he asked: "Why are you laughing, Kongming? Don''t you agree with me? "


    Zhuge Liang said, "I really don''t agree."


    He said in a deep voice, "I''d like to hear your opinions!"


    Zhuge Liang said: "I''ve heard a little about Guo Tu''s exposure in the state of Jin and his imprisonment. Then Zhang Xiu launched a campaign against him. Chen Bing was at the border of Jin and forced Jin to hand over Guo Tu at last."


    "I don''t know the details of this incident, but I know that Duke Ju advocated the first World War, but in the end, either Yuan Shao or yuan Shang released Guo Tu to seek peace."


    "Under such a premise, no matter what the strength of the state of Jin is, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang''s father and son are afraid of Zhang Xiu and have no courage to fight. So even if the state of Jin has a strong foundation and can quickly recover its strength, the people above have been scared by Zhang Xiu. Once they are killed by Zhang Xiu''s army again, how can they have the courage to resist?"


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang continued: "as for the rich foundation of Jin, but since I entered the state of Jin in Qingzhou, along the way, people''s lives have begun to decline, and people''s life is quite difficult."


    "Today''s state of Jin, that is, on the surface, it seems to have unlimited scenery. In fact, it is already declining. Duke Ju, you are the first assistant of the state of Jin. His majesty has delegated the power to you. You can make decisions on many things. "


    Zhuge Liang said: "in fact, the situation of Jin is very bad."


    Ju Shu nodded his head and said, "he is worthy of being the counsellor of the Duke of Chu. What Kong Ming said is quite insightful."


    This is his ability to test Zhuge Liang.


    It''s not easy.


    "Why do you come?" he asked


    Zhuge Liang, with a serious face, said solemnly, "I''m here to see Duke Ju today. I''ve come to meet his Majesty the emperor of Jin under the orders of the king of Wei and the state of Chu to discuss the alliance between the two sides and fight against Zhang Xiu."


    In fact, he had guessed it in his heart, so he was not surprised to hear Zhuge Liang''s words and said: "I know that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages when I unite to fight against Zhang Xiu. But how to persuade your majesty, you will have to work hard. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "please rest assured, I have my own plan."


    "Then go and follow me to the palace!"


    After he recognized Zhuge Liang, he immediately took Zhuge Liang to leave the government office and went straight to the imperial city.

 Chapter 1003

    As he walked along, he admonished Zhuge Liang and said, "Kong Ming, your majesty is very sensitive to war now. So when you see your majesty, even if you want to promote the alliance of the three families, you must carefully consider it and do not make your majesty angry. I''m afraid I can''t protect you when I offend your majesty. Because your majesty is a little unpredictable now. "


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "thank you, Duke Ju!"


    Zhuge Liang knew that the situation in Jin was worse than he had imagined. On the surface, the state of Jin has a solid foundation, but in fact, the king of Jin has lost his fighting spirit and has been scared by Zhang Xiu.


    Such a state of Jin is vulnerable, which is also the reason for the decline of Jin.


    Zhuge Liang was chatting with him, and soon he had come outside the palace. Now, if you want to enter the palace, you don''t need to report at all. You can enter the palace directly.


    It''s a privilege granted by the government.


    Jushi took Zhuge Liang into the hall and ordered the servant to inform him.


    Today''s Yuan Shao doesn''t wander among the women in the harem. After all, he is old and has been fighting continuously. He can''t bear to suffer, so he is resting in his bedroom today. When he heard that Ju Shi wanted to see him, Yuan Shao also went straight to the front hall. After he sat down, he asked, "Ju Qing, what''s the important thing?"


    He pointed to Zhuge Liang and said, "Your Majesty, this is Zhuge Liang, the envoy of Wei and Chu. Now, Zhuge Liang has come to see your Majesty on the order of the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu."


    Yuan Shao examined Zhuge Liang in front of him.


    When he was young, he was a gentleman, tall and handsome. Today, when I see Zhuge Liang, I feel good about him, and I also praise him.


    When Yuan Shao looked at Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang also paid attention to Yuan Shao.


    In these years, Zhuge Liang never met Yuan Shao, but he had heard of Yuan Shao''s deeds. Now when I see Yuan Shao, his eyes are slightly red with blood in his eyes. There are thick bags under his eyes. His face is full of wrinkles. He is quite old.


    It gives people a sense of twilight.


    Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were of the same age, and their ages were not much different.


    Although Cao Cao is old, he gives people a spirit of never giving up and a spirit of being able to stop. Even though Cao Cao is old, he is old and strong, which makes people dare not look down upon him, even more so.


    But Yuan Shao is different.


    Yuan Shao is decadent and dispirited everywhere, which makes people not feel the rebellious and arrogant spirit of once a hero.


    This is Zhuge Liang''s sense.


    However, Zhuge Liang did not show what he thought. He bowed himself and said, "ZHUGE Liang, meet your majesty."


    Yuan Shaoyan said: "you represent the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu. You are the envoys of the two countries. But as far as I know, the hometown of Chu has been under the control of Zhang Xiu. Does the state of Chu still exist? "


    Although Yuan Shao doesn''t worry about or care about the outside affairs, he knows the outside news.


    In the beginning, it was beating.


    Yuan Shao wanted to see what Zhuge Liang would say.


    Zhuge Liang raised a smile and said, "Your Majesty, although Yuzhou is under the control of Zhang Xiu, the existence of Chu is not because the native place of Chu is in Yuzhou, but also because the Duke of Chu is there. As long as the Duke of Chu is there, the state of Chu will be there. As long as the Duke of Chu is there, the heart of Chu is there. Therefore, the state of Chu still exists. "


    "What a sharp mouth


    Yuan Shaoyi stroked his beard under his jaw with a look of approval on his face.


    Yuan Shao once again said: "I heard that after Cao Cao died, Cao ang inherited the foundation of Wei. You follow Liu Bei and have been under Cao Ang''s command. You must be familiar with Cao ang. You should say what kind of person Cao ang is


    Zhuge Liang said: "to your majesty, today''s king of Wei is no less than the late king of Wei, Cao Cao. When Cao Cao was alive, he worked hard to reorganize the army. Today, Cao ang, the king of the Wei Dynasty, personally participated in the training of his soldiers, shared the joys and sorrows with them, and convinced them


    "When Cao Cao was alive, he was courteous to the virtuous, solicited countless talents, and made the country prosperous. Today, Cao ang, the king of Wei, not only solicits talented people in person, but also has a long talk with the talented people who have gone to work for him, making them return to their hearts. "


    "In particular, Cao ang, the king of Wei, was energetic and devoted himself to governance."


    "The king of Wei ordered the state of Wei to be unified, so today''s state of Wei is as powerful as ever."


    Zhuge Liang said with a straight face: "if you want me to say that the king of Wei today is no less than Cao Cao, the former king of Wei. In particular, the king of Wei was admirable. Even if I am Zhuge Liang, I can''t pick a thorn. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao was a little unconvinced and said, "look at my sons yuan Shang and Cao ang. Which one is better than the other?"


    Zhuge Liang sneered at this.


    Yuan Shang is such a straw bag!


    Zhuge Liang knew what yuan Shang had done in the state of Jin, even though he was far away in Yanzhou. Yuan Shang participated in the collapse of Dajin bank, and even slaughtered the people himself. As for the release of Guo Tu, Yuan Shang was also involved. Yuan Shang seems to be smart, but in fact he is incompetent.Compared with Cao ang, yuan is still far behind.


    However, Zhuge Liang could not say such words. Once he said so, Yuan Shao''s heart would be a big knot, even if he wanted to unite.


    Zhuge Liang said with a light smile: "in my opinion, today''s Prince yuan Shang is still inferior to Cao ang."


    Yuan Shao''s face suddenly collapsed.


    Which parents don''t love their children?


    The same is true of Yuan Shao, especially the others who value yuan Shang and think that Yuan Shang is like him. Yuan Shao is smarter than Cao Cao. Even when Cao Cao is dead, he is still there. He and Cao Cao''s generation are like this. In Yuan Shang and Cao Ang''s generation, Yuan Shao still thinks that Yuan Shang is stronger than Cao ang.


    This is Yuan Shao''s idea.


    However, Yuan Shao did not directly say so, but asked: "since Kong Ming said so, there must be a reason. I''m curious. My prince yuan Shang is not as good as Cao ang. "


    Zhuge Liang mocked Yuan Shao in his heart.


    His son is a straw bag, but he thinks it is a treasure. He despises it.


    Zhuge Liang''s heart is like a mirror, but he has a smile on his face and says: "Your Majesty, the reason why I say that the prince is not as good as the king of Wei is very simple. Now, the prince is only the prince. He doesn''t really govern a country and can''t realize the difficulties of a country."


    "Today, the king of Wei governs the whole state of Wei and has to deal with numerous government affairs every day. So what the prince is inferior to is experience. He lacks the experience of being worldly, the courage to face decisions alone, and the experience of being in charge of a country. "


    "This kind of experience can''t be explained clearly in a few words. It''s only when you participate in it personally, but only when you make a real decision that you know it''s not easy."


    "Just as his majesty took charge of the state of Jin, he sheltered the crown prince from countless hardships and let him have no worries. It''s not easy to govern a country. Who knows your Majesty''s sorrow, and who knows it''s not easy? "


    Zhuge Liang continued: "this is not easy. Only the head of a country can realize it. Therefore, I say that the prince is inferior to the king of Wei, which is decided by the respective positions of both sides. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao burst out laughing.


    His face was full of praise.


    Previously, he didn''t like Zhuge Liang''s words because he thought Zhuge Liang looked down on Yuan Shang. But now Zhuge Liang has said that, Yuan Shao thinks it is such a truth, and Zhuge Liang has also said that his heart is not easy to govern a country, which only he can realize.


    When Yuan Shao looked at Zhuge Liang, he was already a confidant.


    When he looked at all this, he was filled with emotion. Zhuge Liang''s mouth was really powerful. In a few words, yuan Shaoxi had already laughed.

 Chapter 1004

    With a smile on his lips, Yuan Shao said, "come on, why are you here?"


    Zhuge Liang leaned back slightly and said, "Your Majesty, as an envoy of Wei and Chu this time, I will represent the two countries and hope to form an ally with Jin and help each other. Now the situation is different from before. Once Wei, Jin, powerful. But now both Jin and Wei are more or less affected. The king of Wei and the Duke of Chu hoped that the two countries could truly form an alliance and be allies with each other. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao''s eyes narrowed.


    Ally with each other!


    This means that once the state of Wei was attacked, Yuan Shao had to send troops to help.


    Yuan Shao''s heart, in fact, is not willing to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhuge Liang saw that Yuan Shao''s face was uncertain, he knew that Yuan Shao must have hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, today''s world is dominated by the state of Qin. On this occasion, do you think that Jin can survive alone? If the state of Wei is destroyed, I''m afraid the state of Jin will not be able to be independent. Of course, if the state of Jin is not ready to fight against Zhang Xiu, it is not ready to fight against Zhang Xiu. Well, I don''t have much to say. "


    Yuan Shao snorted and said, "there is hatred between Jin and Qin. Life and death will never stop."


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said, "in that case, does your majesty agree with the alliance?"


    "Yes!"


    Yuan Shao pondered slightly, but he should go down.


    In any case, it''s not a bad thing to respond first, and it won''t affect the situation.


    Zhuge Liang''s mind was clear, and he knew Yuan Shao''s mind. He said: "Your Majesty, since you are keeping watch and helping each other in the alliance. In fact, it is of little significance to form a simple and common alliance. Today, the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu agree that only when they effectively imitate the pre Qin period, they should send out their own forces and hand them over to a unified person. This is the best way to resist. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed slightly.


    He suddenly changed his face. Originally, he meant that we would make an alliance verbally, just as before. I am willing to support you, so I will send troops to help you. If I don''t want to help you, I won''t help you. It''s all up to me.


    Now, it''s different.


    This is to hand over their respective forces, which is tantamount to losing their previous free decision.


    Yuan Shao was conflicted, so he said: "Kong Ming, it''s OK to form an alliance, but if both sides want to send their own troops and then hand them over to one person, in my opinion, it''s not appropriate."


    Zhuge Liang said: "since your majesty is willing to form an alliance, why do you think it is inappropriate? Even I think that once Zhang Xiu''s troops are withdrawn, the next step is to attack the state of Jin. Isn''t it that your majesty has not made preparations? "


    Yuan Shao said with a smile: "I''m afraid that the first one to attack Zhang Xiu is Cao Wei, not Jin."


    "Your majesty


    Zhuge Liang spoke confidently and calmly.


    "There are three reasons why I judge this," he said


    Yuan Shao said, "I''d like to hear it in detail."


    He wanted to hear what Zhuge Liang could say. Yuan Shao himself thought that after Zhang Xiu destroyed the state of Wu, the next step must be to attack the state of Wei, not his state of Jin. This is his judgment.


    Zhuge Liang said: "first, in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the state of Jin is better to attack, and the state of Wei is tough. Zhang Xiu was at war with the state of Jin, especially the last time she forced her majesty to hand over Guo tu. the whole state of Jin did not really fight. Especially before the big Jin bank, Zhang Xiu''s heart must think that the state of Jin is weak. In contrast, the state of Wei and the state of Chu, even though Cao Cao was in trouble, he was fighting to the end. Cao Wei and the state of Chu all worked together to fight Zhang Xiu to the death. "


    Yuan Shao snorted, said: "I Yuan Shao''s strength, not afraid of Zhang Xiu."


    Zhuge Liang said: "it''s your Majesty''s business to be fearless. I know that the state of Jin is powerful and has enough strength to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. But in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, after Guo Tu''s incident, he thought that the state of Jin was weak. Because this is what Zhang Xiu thinks in her heart. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao was silent for a moment.


    He can''t argue.


    After all, he and Cao Cao took a very different way. Facing the pressure of Zhang Xiu''s army, he gave up Guo Tu in his hand, in exchange for Zhang Xiu''s withdrawal.


    But Cao Cao fought to the end.


    Everyone knows that Cao Wei is tough.


    Therefore, Zhuge Liang made a judgment on the basis of this matter, and there was no mistake in determining that Zhang Xiu was primarily attacking the state of Jin.


    Zhuge Liang continued: "second, Yecheng is the capital of Jin, which is closer to Qin. To attack Yecheng from Hanoi County, there is no long journey, no enough strategic depth, and no long enough logistics supply line. But in the state of Wei, it was different. Even now Yanzhou and Yuzhou fall into the hands of Zhang Xiu, but there are still voices against Zhang Xiu everywhere. Many troops rushing into the mountains have to come out to plunder from time to time, so that if Zhang Xiu attacks Qingzhou, the logistics supply line is very long and dangerous. This is my second judgment. "Yuan Shao''s face was black and his heart was tense.


    Because Zhuge Liang''s words, he thinks that there is a certain truth. Combining the above two factors, Zhang Xiu''s attack on the state of Jin is extremely beneficial to Zhang Xiu. Therefore, Yuan Shao was nervous at this time.


    He listened to Zhuge Liang''s words and praised Zhuge Liang''s wit in his heart.


    In fact, Ju Shu thinks that even if Zhuge Liang''s words are reasonable, in fact, Zhang Xiu may not send troops to attack the state of Jin, because Zhang Xiu''s troops have always been unpredictable, which is not settled.


    I don''t know Zhang Xiu''s mind.


    However, he didn''t refute Zhuge Liang, because in his heart, he hoped to resist Zhang Xiu. Only when Zhang Xiu''s offensive is blocked, can there be a chance of relaxation, and the state of Jin has a chance to survive.


    That''s what I want to do.


    He is the main combatant.


    Yuan Shao took the initiative to ask: "Kong Ming, what''s the third reason?"


    With a confident look on his face, Zhuge Liang said, "the third reason is that there is a foundation for Zhang Xiu to make trouble in Jin. Because of the big Jin bank, the people''s hearts and minds in the whole state of Jin were in disorder. As long as Zhang Xiu incites, it is very likely that the people will make trouble. On the contrary, in the territory of the state of Wei, people are willing to follow the king of Wei. Therefore, if Zhang Xiu fanned the unrest a little, the situation in the state of Jin would be conducive to Zhang Xiu''s attack. So under such a premise, Zhang Xiu is the first choice to attack Jin. "


    Yuan Shao looks black.


    As the emperor of a country, yuan Shaozi knew the situation of Jin, so he knew Zhuge Liang''s words were correct. Especially since the big Jin bank incident, there have been people jumping up and down in the whole country of Jin, which has never subsided.


    Zhuge Liang saw that Yuan Shao''s face sank, knew that Yuan Shao had believed him, and even knew that he had intimidated Yuan Shao, so he said again: "Your Majesty, so I think Zhang Xiu must be the first to attack Jin. The state of Wei is the most reluctant to see the failure of Jin, because once the failure of Jin, the state of Wei is helpless. In fact, the same is true for Jin. Once the state of Wei fell, the state of Jin was isolated. Under this premise, the state of Jin will not last long. Therefore, the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu jointly arranged for me to come as a special envoy to see your majesty, hoping to promote the alliance between the two sides. "


    Yuan Shao''s eyes, however, fell on Ju Shi and said, "Ju Qing, what do you think?"


    Ju Shi was an important Minister of Jin State and a confidant of Yuan Shao.


    He believes in people.


    He looked respectful and said, "Your Majesty, I agree with the analysis of Zhuge Kongming. Because the state of Jin, or the state of Wei, is cold in the mouth and cold in the teeth. As a matter of fact, it is the most appropriate way for both sides to send out their own troops and then put them under the command of a unified person. Your majesty, I agree with this proposal. "


    Yuan Shao nodded, then he stopped talking, but fell into meditation.

 Chapter 1005

    Zhuge Liang expressed his gratitude to Jushi, because with his persuasion, he could make Yuan Shao fight to death. If we join forces, the plan of forming a coalition army this time will be completely broken.


    At this time, Zhuge Liang did not say much.


    What should be said has been said.


    Now, it depends on Yuan Shao''s decision, and Zhuge Liang believes that after he made a clear statement about his interests, or after some intimidation, Yuan Shao is worried about the security of the state of Jin and will certainly agree, because people are selfish. Yuan Shao, in order to protect the state of Jin and keep his own power, would also agree. This is Zhuge Liang''s confidence.


    Yuan Shao has been calculating.


    Nearly half a quarter of an hour later, Yuan Shao made a decision in his heart. However, as Rao was, Yuan Shao did not immediately make a judgment. Instead, he immediately ordered someone to invite the judge to come and ask for his opinions.


    Zhuge Liang was a little nervous.


    He didn''t know the decision of the judge.


    In case that the judge and the match have to firmly oppose, and Yuan Shao is famous for his soft ears, and the public says that the public and the old say that the old are reasonable, Yuan Shao will not make any more decisions, and the joint plan will fail.


    Zhuge Liang looked at Ju Shou and asked, but Ju Shou shook his head.


    This is a signal to Zhuge Liang not to worry.


    The judge is strong and upright.


    In the consideration of the state of Jin, I believe that the judges will agree.


    When Zhuge Liang saw this, he also restrained his worries.


    After half a sound, the judge came to the main hall, bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "Your Majesty, I don''t know what you want to tell me."


    Yuan Shao briefly and quickly talked about the alliance and the joint dispatch of troops. Finally, he asked, "Shen Qing, do you think it''s appropriate for you to talk about the joint dispatch of troops? What''s your opinion?"


    When Wei Jin saw the United Nations, it was a good thing. Now that Zhang Xiu has destroyed the state of Wu, she will attack either the state of Wei or the state of Jin. Next, the war is coming. With our own strength alone, we certainly can''t catch it. So now, it is best for both sides to unite. So I agree with the alliance and jointly send troops, but I have a question. "


    Yuan Shao said, "but it''s OK to say it!"


    The judge and match zhengse said: "the two sides send their own troops, and then unite and hand them over to one person. First, where is the most suitable location for the United Army? Second, how to supply food for the army? Third, who is the commander of the army? If these three problems are not handled properly, then I think even if each of them sends troops, there will be contradictions, and each of them will act on its own. These three issues have been clarified and decided properly. Only then can we really operate, otherwise we can''t arrange the operation. "


    "Yes, yes, yes!"


    Yuan Shao said three "yes" in a row, and his face was full of praise.


    That''s what he cares about.


    Ju Shi''s eyes also fell on Zhuge Liang. He knew that the matter of alliance had been basically settled as soon as he spoke. But the specific operation depends on how the two sides negotiate, or whether Zhuge Liang has the right to make a decision. If Zhuge Liang, as an envoy this time, is unable to finalize these matters, it will be difficult for him to unite next.


    Zhuge Liang was relaxed at this moment.


    It''s done.


    As long as Yuan Shao agrees to unite, everything will be easy. When he was sent as a diplomatic envoy, he specially asked Cao ang about the commander of the United forces and other matters, all of which were settled properly.


    So Zhuge Liang is not worried.


    With a smile on his face, Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, the three questions mentioned by the judge are very important. I can answer or decide these three questions."


    Yuan Shao leaned forward slightly and said, "well, tell me how to arrange it."


    Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, the first problem is the location of the garrison. The opinion of Wei and Chu was that the United Army should be stationed in Bohai Prefecture. Because Bohai county is located in the rear of Qingzhou, if the state of Wei is attacked, then this army can rush to help immediately. If the state of Jin is attacked, this army can go to resist immediately. The garrison in such a place can take care of two battlefields. I don''t know what your majesty thinks? "


    "It works!"


    Yuan Shao did not want to answer directly.


    The army is stationed in his territory, then, for the state of Jin, it is the best.


    Yuan Shao asked again, "what''s the second point?"


    Zhuge Liang was not impatient. He gently shook the goose feather fan in his hand and said again, "second, about grain. Since it is a joint operation, the two countries will each take out a certain amount of food and then store it all in the garrison camp, and then supply it in a unified way. No matter the soldiers of Jin State or the soldiers of Wei state, they all supply grain in a unified way, and do not engage in specialization. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang said: "only in this way can it be regarded as a bowl of water, so that there will be no internal strife. If the soldiers of Wei, Chu and Jin had different supplies, I''m afraid that if Zhang Xiu hadn''t killed her, there would have been an internal dispute. ""Good, good!"


    Yuan Shao nodded and said, "you have a point. What''s the third point?"


    When it comes to the third point, Yuan Shao''s eyes are full of brilliance. Because in Yuan Shao''s view, the first and second points are secondary. The most important thing is who will be the manager, which is very important. At this time, they all looked at Zhuge Liang and waited for Zhuge Liang''s reply.


    Zhuge Liang said, "the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu have reached an agreement on this matter. After the formation of the coalition, the states of Wei and Chu would send generals to take charge of the army, but the commander of the army was Duke Ju of Jin. This time, the army was dispatched by Duke Ju. "


    It was made in advance.


    At the time of discussion, it had been considered that Yuan Shao was not willing to suffer losses and would definitely not agree to let the people of the state of Wei be the commander-in-chief. Only let the people of Jin State be the commander-in-chief, this battle will have a chance.


    But no matter Yuan Shao or yuan Shang, they are all straw bags. They are definitely not suitable to be the commander-in-chief. Only Jushu is a wise man who can lead the army to fight. The most important thing is that Jushu is the main fighting faction and he hopes to fight against Zhang Xiu. Therefore, Jushu as the commander-in-chief can not only ensure the stability of the army, but also ensure the stable attack against Zhang Xiu.


    This is something anyone can rest assured of.


    Sure enough, Yuan Shao heard Zhuge Liang''s words, his face showed a smile and said, "yes, yes, I agree that juqing will be the commander in chief. Kong Ming, I agree to this joint dispatch. In Shanxi Province, 60000 people can be sent out. The first batch of grain can supply 50000 tons of grain. What about the states of Wei and Chu? "


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Your Majesty said it was 60000, so the state of Wei and the state of Chu also jointly sent 60000 troops and supplied 50000 stone grains. The armies of our two sides went to the border counties of Bohai. However, I would like to reiterate that the person recognized by the king of Wei and the Duke of Chu is Duke Ju, who must go to lead the army in person. "


    "No problem!"


    Yuan Shao did not want to answer directly.


    He believes in people.


    Because Jushu was in charge of the army, the next decision would be beneficial to Chu.


    Yuan Shao looked at Ju Shi and said, "Ju Qing, the government affairs in the court, you hand over to Shen Qing and let him take full charge of the government affairs of the court. You are ready to go with your troops and military provisions. I look forward to your performance. "


    "I will live up to your Majesty''s high expectations," he said


    Zhuge Liang was also relieved.


    When the matter was finally settled, he didn''t stay in the palace. He talked about some details and left the palace together with the judge and Jushi. At this moment, Zhuge Liang''s steps were relaxed and full of hope.


    If the two sides unite to fight against Zhang Xiu, they will be sure.

 Chapter 1006

    As Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong dispatched troops to sweep the situation in Yangzhou, especially when the news of sun CE and Zhou Yu''s suicide came out, there was no one in all places to resist, and they all looked forward to surrender, so that in a short time, the whole city of Yangzhou was calmed down. There are still some places that need to be adjusted one by one, and that is the matter of Lu Xun.


    It can''t be done overnight.


    It''s cool in early September.


    The troops led by Huang Zhong and Zhang Yan have been withdrawn and have been stationed in Wu County.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu summoned Lu Xun, Jia Xu, Sima Yi, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Zhang Yan, and a Guli into the Chinese Army''s big account, because by now, they can withdraw and go north.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said in a deep voice: "the situation in Yangzhou has been settled for the time being. Even if there may be some small stocks in the future, it will not be too serious. So I''m ready to withdraw. Lu Xun, you govern Yangzhou, and I''ll leave you 10000 soldiers in Yangzhou for you to dispatch, so that you can have a stable army. "


    "Thank you


    Lu Xun stood up and bowed his thanks.


    Zhang Xiu waved Lu Xun to sit down. In fact, at the beginning, he considered leaving an army in Yangzhou, just like Zhang Ren''s garrison in Yizhou and Gao Lan''s garrison in Liangzhou. However, after considering this, he did not intend to leave a fully formed army.


    The reason is that on the one hand, the next step is to attack the Wei and Jin states northward, which is a unified war and needs more troops to participate. On the other hand, he left ten thousand elites, and he was not afraid of what Lu Xun could do. What''s more, Lu Xun didn''t agree with Wu''s senior officials, so Zhang Xiu was relieved to give Lu Xun ten thousand elites.


    However, the situation of being the commander of the assassin general is only temporary.


    That''s now.


    At the back, it must be the separation of the military and the government. Otherwise, a person who controls both the administrative power and the army will be in charge of both the military and the government, which is tantamount to the state herding. This will easily lead to the situation of large places, which Zhang Xiu will never allow.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and said, "Gan Ning, you muster all the troops to take our warship. All the warships, carrying our troops, will return to Jiangxia County, where they will be stationed. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    Although Gan Ning didn''t like to ponder over political affairs, Zhang Xiu brought all the warships back to Jiangxia County, which ensured that even if there was any trouble in Yangzhou, the troops of the Qin Dynasty could take the warships to Yangzhou at any time.


    Because this ship is invincible.


    It''s invincible.


    This is the balance of Zhang Xiu.


    Even if Lu Xun is in trouble in Yangzhou, with these warships, the warships made in Yangzhou can''t be the opponents of the keel warships, so it''s useless to take a long river.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the rest, such as Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan and other civil servants of Wu state, all moved to Chang''an and worked in Chang''an. All the military generals of the state of Wu who were obedient rushed into the army and served in the army. "


    "Here it is


    Lu Xun responded again.


    After Zhang Xiu arranged everything properly, Wang Yue rushed in from outside. After bowing to Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Your Majesty, there is news about Wei and Jin. It''s quite urgent."


    With that, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    After Zhang Xiu took it, he read it quickly. When he finished reading it, he looked serious and said, "just received the news from the royal guards that the state of Wei and the state of Jin were united, or that the state of Wei, the state of Jin and the state of Chu were united. Each side sent 60000 elite troops to form 120000 united forces. Now they are stationed at the border of Bohai county. Its purpose is to fight against the army of the Qin Dynasty. The commander in chief of this army of Wei and Jin is Ju Shu. There are also some senior generals of Wei and Jin at the bottom. "


    Jia Xu stroked his moustache under his jaw and said, "unexpectedly, Yuan Shao and the state of Wei really United this time. Today, the other side''s 120000 troops, whether attacking Wei or Jin, will face the attack of 120000 troops. It seems that they have been on guard for a long time to prevent their majesty from attacking them. "


    Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, this strategy seems to be powerful. In fact, it may not be impeccable."


    Zhang xiudao said, "Zhong Da, what do you think?"


    Sima Yi gave a smile and replied, "Your Majesty, with the humble understanding of Yuan Shao, it should be Cao Wei''s concession to take Ju as the commander-in-chief, so Yuan Shao agreed to unite. What if we attack Jin and Wei at the same time? We should have the possibility to attack at the same time. "


    "No!"


    Zhang Song shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I''m against sending troops at the same time. Although your Majesty''s forces, there are many large forces, can be divided to attack, in the end it is dispersed. Now, as long as the battle is finished and the Allied forces of Wei and Jin are defeated, it is easy to destroy Wei or Jin. This battle has come to the end. Why don''t you finish the battle and completely defeat the other side? "


    Sima Yi said: "in the state of Qin, Yanzhou and Yuzhou alone, there are two armies, the fierce tiger army and the conventional army, with more than 60000 elite troops.""In addition, your majesty is accompanied by the flying bear army, the flying Qiang army, the black mountain army, and thousands of white horses. Even if 10000 people are left in Yangzhou, there are still 60000 or 70000 elite


    "Plus the Langya camp in Hanoi. Our army of 60000 or 70000 will join the Langya camp, and we will not be afraid of the alliance of Cao Wei and Jin. "


    Sima Yi said: "under this premise, we can divide our forces into two groups. Even in the state of Wei, the strength was further weakened after 60000 elite were separated. It''s actually easier to deal with Cao Wei after division. "


    This is Sima Yi''s view.


    Today''s Daqin is quite powerful.


    This is extremely strong.


    Sima Yi looked at Zhang Xiu and said again, "Your Majesty, we have the ability and strength to divide our forces. Therefore, I believe that this war can be fought separately. "


    "No, no!"


    Zhang song also insisted on Castle Peak: "Your Majesty, in this case, it''s better to strike together. Just think about it, if 150000 or 60000 elite were to be pushed and crushed to defeat the alliance of Cao Wei and Jin. At that time, Cao Wei and the state of Jin lost their ability to resist, and this battle will surely be won. "


    Sima Yi hummed: "it''s not necessary to push and crush. After all, it''s necessary to attack the city and plunder the land. Even if there are more than 100000 troops, if the United forces of Cao and Wei chose to guard, they might not be able to break it. So I think it''s the right choice to divide forces. "


    Zhang Song said: "even if there is a strong city, but I have flying eagle camp in Daqin. If there is flying eagle camp, I can attack the city by surprise and break the defense of the other side."


    Sima Yi retorted: "the attack of flying eagle camp is better than surprise. In particular, Cao Wei, who had suffered from the loss of the flying eagle camp, was sure to be on guard. In particular, the commander in chief of the United forces of Cao Wei and Jin state was Jushou, who was a very wise man. It''s not easy to defeat the enemy by clever means. In particular, all the big armies will fight together. If they can''t defeat their own defense, all their plans will be broken. Such a situation is extremely unfavorable. "


    Sima Yi looked at Zhang Xiu again and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, please judge."


    He took a look at Zhang song.


    On weekdays, Zhang song is also low-key, but when it comes to marching, when it comes to discussing military strategy, Zhang song always has to express different opinions. Now he is arguing with him, and Sima Yi is not happy.


    Zhang song also looks at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her judgment.


    Everything depends on how Zhang Xiu decides.

 Chapter 1007

    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, he does not think there is a dispute below, is what bad things. Because the people below have disputes, the more they argue, the clearer the truth will be. The most important thing is how they judge.


    It''s about trade-offs.


    In fact, both Zhang Song and Sima Yi have some truth. This is the so-called public theory, the public theory, the old woman theory, each has its own basis.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, what do you think?"


    Zhang Song and Sima Yi also looked at Jia Xu together.


    Zhang Bingjia had a very important position in this book.


    Jia Xu, with a wise look on his old cheek, said, "Your Majesty, I always pay attention to surprise when I use my troops. Only in this way can we use our troops. The intention of the alliance of Cao Wei and Jin is self-evident, that is, when we attack, they will resist. Both Zhang Song''s and Sima Yi''s words have some truth, but they all have some defects. "


    "To divide our forces to attack is really to weaken our forces."


    "If we attack one place together, if our forces are blocked, then the whole army will never be able to move forward, and even have a considerable impact on the process of Qin''s unification."


    Jia Xu said: "so I think that when I dispatch a large army to attack, I also get a surprise. Of course, the direction of the army''s attack is also particular. "


    "According to the situation of Jushi as commander in chief of the coalition, I boldly speculated that if Cao Wei did not accept Jushi as commander in chief, Yuan Shao might not accept the coalition. Even if he had not been stationed in Bohai Prefecture, Yuan Shao might not have adopted it. "


    "So it can be speculated that Yuan Shao didn''t have too much thought and was not very sad about rushing to help the state of Wei."


    "We should aim at the Allied forces, so I think that if we want to attack, we should also attack Cao Wei."


    "Only in this way can Yuan Shao be reluctant."


    Jia Xu''s face was solemn, and he continued: "under such a premise, if Yuan Shao wants to withdraw, or rush to help Cao Wei, or even delay, then the attack on Cao Wei will be much more successful. Of course, even if Yuan Shao didn''t drag his feet, the impact was not big. In a word, I think attacking Cao Wei is the first choice. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed with Jia Xu''s analysis.


    After hearing this, Sima Yi''s face showed a thoughtful look, because what he argued with Zhang song just now was how to send troops. He mainly attacked one place, but also divided his troops to attack. Jia Xu didn''t think about it carefully.


    This is Jia Xu''s strength.


    Zhang song is also reflecting. He also knows that Jia Xu is very resourceful and meticulous. Now, under the spur of Jia Xu, he is also trying to improve himself, not to let himself be thoughtless.


    Zhang Song asked: "Jia Shangshu, there is no problem in the direction of attacking Cao Wei. However, how can we get out cavalry and attack it? "


    With a smile, Jia Xu said: "the so-called cavalry is to attack Yuan Shao by surprise. If we attack Cao Wei by force, then in accordance with the covenant between Yuan Shao and Cao ang, the 120000 troops led by Jushou will surely enter the territory of Wei to counter our army. "


    "Under such circumstances, we only need to attack Yuan Shao and Bingzhou. Over the years, we went to battle with Yuan Shao by attacking Yecheng in Hanoi county. "


    "Now, we have raided Bingzhou, captured Bingzhou and killed Gao Gan with lightning speed. Then, the situation of encircling Jizhou came into being, and it would be easier to destroy Yuan Shao, who was left only in Jizhou. "


    "The most important thing is that once Bingzhou is attacked, Yuan Shao is bound to transfer the Allied forces under the command of Jushou. At that time, how can Jushou choose?"


    Jia Xu said: "it''s an extra calculation to make it difficult for Juzhi to make a choice, or even for the coalition forces of Cao Wei and Da Jin to make a choice. This is my plan."


    Sima Yi said, "I agree with what Jia Shangshu said. Raiding Bingzhou is a good direction. After we win Bingzhou, we are one step closer to the destruction of Jin. In this way, although we say that the battlefield is in the state of Wei, it is also in the state of Bingzhou. "


    Jia Xu said: "yes, this war is two battlefields. The best result is a two pronged approach. Both the battle fields of Bingzhou and the state of Wei have won


    Zhang song is speechless.


    He could not refute Jia''s proposal.


    Zhang Xiu finally said: "in that case, we should follow Wen he''s suggestion. Next, our army left and went north. Our troops were mainly concentrated in the state of Wei. As for the attack on Bingzhou, Gao Lan and pound were ordered to attack. In this way, they can enter Bingzhou by surprise


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    When Sima Yi and Zhang Song heard that Zhang Xiu had made a decision, they didn''t say much.


    After Zhang Xiu made up her mind, she ordered her departure.


    Along with Zhang Xiu''s departure, the army left Wu County in a mighty manner. Besides, the civil and military forces who were obedient to Wu state also set out together. They entered the Yangtze River from the ferry of Wu County and went all the way west.After returning to Jiangxia, the army went straight north.


    Zhang Xiu moved northward, entered Yuzhou directly, and finally came to Yanzhou to join the army led by Zhang Ya. Today, the army led by Zhang Ya is stationed in Xu county to coordinate the four directions.


    After Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ya joined up, all the troops set out and went straight to the direction of Taishan county. This trend was quickly detected by the sentinel of the state of Wei and spread to Huang County in Donglai County of Qingzhou.


    Cao ang was also nervous when he learned that Zhang Xiu''s army had been killed, especially Zhang Xiu''s army, which had exceeded 100000. What Cao ang can do now is to mobilize his troops and prepare for the attack.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is here.


    At the same time, Cao ang may arrange people to go north to Jizhou for help.


    When Cao Cao''s sentry came to Bohai County, he saw the leader of the army, and quickly reported: "Mr. Ju, Zhang Xiu will lead the army to Taishan County, and the next step may be to attack Qingzhou. Please send troops to Qingzhou as soon as possible. "


    Jushou waved his hand and said, "I know. I''ll dispatch troops immediately."


    "Thank you


    After thanking him, the sentry turned and stepped down.


    But Ju Shu called Xia Houyuan, Zhang Liao and others in Cao''s army, and also called the chief General of Yuan Shao''s army. He directly said that Zhang Xiu was about to attack Wei, and ordered to send troops.


    120000 troops set out from Bohai county to Qingzhou.


    His action soon spread to Yecheng.


    When Yuan Shao learned that he had sent troops, he slapped his hands on the desk and frowned. He was very unhappy.


    The reason is very simple. He agreed to unite this time because he thought that Zhang Xiu might attack Jin, so he agreed to unite. In particular, this time, the main purpose of the alliance was to give priority to education.


    But now that Zhang Xiu has gone to attack Cao ang, Yuan Shao is worried.


    Jushi called for the judge and said: "Shenqing, you should arrange a sentry to go to the front line and tell Jushi that this time he is taking the army of Jin to help Cao Wei resist Zhang Xiu. If he can''t do his best, he can avoid. If he can send Cao Wei''s army, he can send Cao Jun to reduce our losses. In this war, Cao Wei was attacked. It has nothing to do with us. Let him not be too serious. "


    The judge''s mouth twitched, but he still said, "Your Majesty''s order, I will arrange the sentry to convey it word for word."


    "Go


    Yuan Shao waved his hand.


    The judge turned around and stepped down, then quickly sent the message. However, in his letter, although he mentioned Yuan Shao''s command, he also mentioned it implicitly, which made him do his best to maintain everything in China.


    The reason is that the trial and match faction is also the main fighting faction.

 Chapter 1008

    Zhuxu county is located in the southwest of Beihai.


    This is the border with Gaixian County, Taishan county. Cao ang led the army himself and came to zhuxu county to settle down. Today, Cao Ang''s troops are close to 30000. After all, he had sent 60000 troops to fight, so that the state of Wei had few troops.


    Cao ang was accompanied by Xun you and Guo Jia. As for Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, they stayed in Huangxian county to deal with the affairs in the rear, so as to stabilize the situation in the rear.


    Soon after the arrival of more than 30000 troops led by Cao ang, Jushou had already led them to Beihai.


    On the way, he received a letter from the judge. It was yuan shaole who told him to keep the news of the soldiers of Jin as much as possible. However, when he saw the news mentioned by the judge, he showed a smile on his face.


    With judges in the rear, he has no worries.


    After all, judges are wise.


    Moreover, it was clear that if this war could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army, then Wei would be defeated. When the state of Wei is defeated, it will be sooner or later that the state of Jin is defeated.


    Therefore, the judges fully support the award.


    After entering zhuxu County, Jushi came to the city of the county. After meeting with Cao ang, Jushi met Cao ang in the barracks and said, "I''ve met the king of Wei in lower Jushi."


    This is my first time to see Cao ang.


    Cao ang in his eyes was calm, handsome and extraordinary.


    Compared with Yuan Shang''s arrogance and grandiosity, he was impatient and not pragmatic. He admired Cao ang very much. Because Cao ang was so down-to-earth, the state of Wei could recover in a very short time after losing nearly 100000 troops.


    This is what Cao ang can do.


    Cao ang had known Ju Shou for a long time, and now he saw him for the first time. He waved his hand to show him to take a seat and said, "Duke Ju has just arrived. According to the information we got, Zhang Xiu''s army has entered Taishan county. I''m afraid we''ll arrive at Gai County, which borders zhuxu County, soon. "


    After a pause, Cao ang continued: "this time, Zhang Xiu has more than 100000 troops under her command. If it''s just my 30000 elite, I''m afraid it can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack. Now with the presence of Duke Ju, I have the strength to resist Zhang Xiu. "


    Ju said with a smile, "the king of Wei praised me falsely."


    Cao ang said: "I''ve heard from Kong Ming. If it wasn''t for Duke Ju, I''m afraid the state of Jin would not form an alliance with us. So this time, thanks to Duke Ju. "


    Ju Shuo shook his head gently and said: "Wang juzan, it''s good for people and self to resist Zhang Xiu. It''s good for both Wei and Jin. That''s why I''m fighting. It''s mutual benefit. Otherwise, I would not have fought like this. "


    Cao ang nodded and said, "Duke Ju, you see Zhang Xiu''s army is coming. How can we resist it?"


    Instead of saying the plan in a hurry, Ju Shu asked: "the king of Wei arrived in zhuxu county first. Then, after consulting with his advisers, the king of Wei thought how to fight the next battle?"


    Cao ang said: "in front of Duke Ju, Ben Wan will not hide. After discussing with his advisers, the king agreed that Zhang Xiu was a good soldier. "


    "After Zhang Xiu approached us, on the one hand, she confronted us, on the other hand, she was very likely to divide her forces to attack Xuzhou to contain our army. For the state of Wei, Xuzhou is also a very important place. "


    "When Zhang Xiu attacked Xuzhou, he was unprepared and forced us to rescue."


    "Then, Zhang Xiu can ambush the reinforcements we sent. The last time Cao Ren was in Xiangcheng County, Zhang Xia, a general under Zhang Xiu, took advantage of Huang Zhong''s attack on Runan in Yuzhou to ambush Guan Yu, who came down from Xiangcheng County. "


    Cao ang said: "so now, we must be careful about this. And we will make arrangements ahead of time. "


    Liu Bei also sat on one side and said: "this ambush of Zhang Xiu''s reinforcements will be handed over to my troops, and I will lead them to ambush on the way. Once Zhang Xiu arranges the army to go south to Xuzhou, I will stop the other side. "


    Liu Bei is extremely hostile to Zhang Xiu.


    His second, third and even Jian Yong are still in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Even his women are like this, which makes Liu Bei feel like a knife.


    "Did Kong Ming go south with uncle Liu?" he said


    "Yes


    Zhuge Liang nodded and answered.


    He is Liu Bei''s counselor. Now Liu Bei is going to ambush on the road of Xuzhou. As Liu Bei''s counselor, he wants to go with Liu Bei, which is a matter of course.


    Ju zhengse said: "well, Kong Ming, together with uncle Liu, is able to give advice. Once something happens, he can adapt to circumstances, so that he won''t be caught off guard."


    After having a talk with Cao ang and others, Ju Shou and Cao ang camped separately.


    But on the whole, the army is stationed together.


    After only two days in Jushou, the army led by Zhang Xiu had already arrived at the border of zhuxu County, close to Cao Ang''s barracks.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu has a large number of troops, including Zhang Ya''s regular army, Ganning''s liehu army, Huang Zhong''s Feixiong army, Zhang Yan''s Heishan army, and aguli''s feiqiang army. Even if there are 10000 Feixiong troops left in Yangzhou, even if there are only 20000 feiqiang troops, there are already about 130000 troops, and some Baima yicong.Zhang Xiu''s strength, in fact, is a little less than Cao Ang''s and juxu''s allied forces. This tiny gap in military strength is almost negligible.


    Zhang Xiu''s army was arrayed outside the camp of the Cao Wei united army.


    The vast army stretches for miles.


    The dark army is full of murderous spirit.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward and said in a loud voice, "where are Cao ang and Ju Shu?"


    Cao ang and Ju Shu came forward immediately. When they looked at Zhang Xiu, their eyes were extremely sharp. Cao ang, in particular, looks at Zhang Xiu with boundless killing intention. It is the so-called enemy meeting, especially jealous, Cao Cao died in the hands of Zhang Xiu, Xia Houdun, Cao Hong and others, that also died in the hands of the Qin army, all this is caused by the Qin army.


    Cao ang said: "Zhang Xiu, you dare to come again. You, damn it! Do you know that your father-in-law is your father-in-law, but he is my sister''s father, but you killed him


    The words are cold.


    There is endless resentment in the words.


    The hatred of killing my father is mortal.


    He will never forget that Cao Cao died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu disdained to smile and said: "the fighting on the battlefield is a matter of life and death. I will let Cao Cao kill me. "


    "What''s more, I didn''t kill Cao Cao, nor did my men. I made it clear to Cao Cao that he was ordered to surrender, but in the end, Cao Cao pulled out his sword and committed suicide. "


    "Even Dian Wei, who had been captured, wanted to die on his own. You said I killed him, but I won''t admit it. Moreover, this is the dispute between the two countries and nothing else. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if Cao Cao''s age is his daughter, and the relationship between his age and me, why don''t he surrender? Even when you think about your younger sister, Cao ang, why don''t you put down your butcher''s knife and submit to me? As long as you are obedient, I promise you a prosperous life. "


    "No way, I will not stop until I kill you."


    Cao Ang''s steel teeth clenched tightly, and the words were all spit out from his teeth, revealing the meaning of killing.


    He is familiar with Zhang Xiu and knows her style better.


    Always sharp teeth and sharp mouth.


    If you quarrel with Zhang Xiu, you must say that you won''t win Zhang Xiu. In fact, even his own father''s Kung Fu is not as good as Zhang Xiu''s, and he is the same.


    Cao ang said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, the main force of our allied forces, is stationed here. If you want to attack, just come. I''m Cao ang today. I''ll accompany you to the end. We will fight to the end with you. "


    "Fight to the death!"


    Cao Ren cried out.


    With Cao Ren''s shouting, countless soldiers echoed. A moment later, the cry of death battle was heard one after another, echoing in the air for a long time.


    Cao''s army is full of morale and momentum.


    Even though Cao ang was young, this method of transforming his morale was quite good. He turned grief and anger into strength and inspired the fighting spirit of the army.

 Chapter 1009

    In fact, Zhang Xiu''s age is not much different from Cao ang''s. But for Zhang Xiu, he looks at Cao ang as if he is a younger generation, because Zhang Xiu''s opponents from beginning to end are Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and Cao ang is a younger generation.


    Today, Cao Ang''s performance is not much different from that of Cao Cao, but Cao ang is more immature.


    Cao Cao''s morale can make the soldiers more convinced. Especially the charm of Cao Cao, Cao ang can''t compare with you. Rao is so. Cao ang has done a good job, making the morale of all the troops like a rainbow.


    Cao Ang''s face was full of iron and blood. His eyes were sharp. After the soldiers'' cry died down, he said again: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to fight in this battle, we will accompany you to the end. If you have courage, you can fight."


    "Fight


    "Fight


    ¡­¡­


    Countless soldiers, spontaneously shouting.


    At the beginning, only the front soldiers were shouting, but in a short time, it has spread to the whole army. The cries of tens of thousands of people, one after another, resounded through the world, almost suffocating. Such a cry, but also formed an indestructible fighting spirit, so that all the Cao Wei and Jin soldiers, full of war.


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes, but she laughed.


    Cao Ang''s method is good.


    Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu was useless to him. Zhang Xiu immediately said, "this time, the state of Qin will not only attack the state of Wei, but also attack the state of Jin."


    He gave orders directly, and the soldiers of Qin army began to shout.


    With the cry of the soldiers of Qin army, the news spread to all the soldiers of Wei and Jin. In a flash, many soldiers of Jin were dumb and looked in the direction where Zhang Xiu was, with awe and worry on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu attacked Jin at the same time, can Jin resist?


    Everyone thinks Yuan Shao is not good.


    As a matter of fact, Yuan Shao collected taxes and did not exchange the money owed to Dajin bank. The whole state of Jin was filled with resentment. Therefore, even the soldiers in the army did not think Yuan Shao was so powerful.


    Most importantly, Yuan Shao was afraid of being beaten by the state of Qin. Everyone thinks that if the state of Qin sent troops to attack the state of Jin, then the state of Jin must be dangerous, so the original high morale suddenly withered.


    The 60000 soldiers of the state of Jin were all worried.


    As for the Cao army, although they are still fighting high spirited, the soldiers of the state of Jin are so. These Cao soldiers are still affected.


    The cry of Wei and Jin Dynasties subsided at the same time.


    At this time, Ju Shu stood up and said: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, even if the Langya camp under your command wants to attack the state of Jin from Hanoi, it is impossible to attack the state of Jin with a force of only 20000 or 30000 people. I don''t think you can break the state of Jin. What you said just now is just alarmist


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s Duke Ju. Speaking of it, Tian Feng under my command misses you very much. Tian Feng said that you are a man of great talent. Following Yuan Shao is a secret investment. Even Guo Tu said, "you are dedicated to the state of Jin, but Yuan Shao is a fatuous king. You are loyal to the state of Jin."


    Ju zhengse said, "everyone has his own ambition. Your majesty knows that I am useful and has entrusted me with important tasks. How can I turn my back on your majesty at this time. If so, what''s the difference to animals? "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "it''s a pity that you''re here."


    "Everyone has his own ambition," he said


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, he continued: "Jushou, if you say that I have twenty or thirty thousand people in Langya camp and can''t break the state of Jin, then you are self righteous."


    "Don''t you forget that Yuan Shao himself led an army of 50000 to 60000 to invade Hanoi County, but he was beaten by the fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning and fled in confusion, losing his general at the expense of his troops."


    "Don''t you forget that Yuan Shao didn''t dare to fight when I led the army to the border of dangyin County, Hanoi Prefecture. He honestly handed over Guo Tu and didn''t dare to fight with me."


    "Don''t you forget that in the old days when I led troops to approach Yecheng, Yuan Shao himself begged for peace, and only then did he keep the state of Jin."


    A series of words darkened my face.


    In a word, yuan Shaozhen counsels.


    All previous battles with Zhang Xiu were not only a failure, but also a break in his own spine. It was Yuan Shao himself who broke his spine and bent down in front of Zhang Xiu, so that there was no face in the state of Jin.


    These words can''t be said.


    Ju zhengse said: "Zhang Xiu, no matter what, it''s impossible for you to want to win the first World War and defeat the Allied forces of Jin and Wei. One hundred and fifty thousand troops are stationed here. It''s impossible for you to win. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m not afraid of your 150000 troops. What''s more, the situation in Jin was mentioned just now. Although you have a good relationship with the state of Wei, you should know Yuan Shao''s character. No matter how many troops there are in my Langya camp, Yuan Shao will order you to withdraw once the Langya camp attacks. Are you going to disobey Yuan Shao''s orders? "


    At this time, on the contrary, it reminds Zhang Xiu.


    If Chen Dao is allowed to feint, Yuan Shao is bound to order juxu to withdraw, and the Wei Jin coalition in zhuxu county will be broken.However, it depends on how we deal with it.


    Hearing this, he took a deep breath and said again: "Zhang Xiu, do you think this kind of means can scare me? But you forget that the assistant minister who stayed in the state of Jin was the judge and the main combatant. Even if your majesty wants to order me, the judge will deal with it for me. As long as there is a judge to deal with it for me, everything will be easy. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, everything will wait and see."


    Looking at Zhang Xiu''s confident expression, Ju Shu still has a shadow on her eyebrows, because Zhang Xiu''s means are extremely cruel and hard to deal with.


    Cao ang said: "Duke Ju, don''t worry. This is Zhang Xiu''s threat."


    He nodded and said nothing.


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, he saw that all the officers and men who belonged to the state of Jin were talking and smiling.


    That''s what he wants.


    It''s about letting the other party talk.


    Zhang Xiu immediately dispatched soldiers to come forward, feigned, and ordered to withdraw. Because the real battlefield is not here, Zhang Xiu does not intend to really attack. Even if it''s to attack, it''s not now.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army retreated, whether it was Ju Shou or Cao ang, they were all relieved.


    Soldiers in the army, return to the camp again.


    In Cao Ang''s camp.


    Cao ang sat on the throne, while Jushou, Xun you, Guo Jia and others sat down.


    Cao Ang''s face was solemn and said: "in my opinion, Zhang Xiu''s attack today has no pressure at all. When he sees our coalition forces, the next step is to attack Xuzhou. "


    After a pause, Cao ang said: "of course, Zhang Xiu is not ruled out. He may mobilize the forces of Hanoi Prefecture and then put pressure on his Majesty the emperor of Jin. For this matter, Duke Ju also asked him to write a letter earlier. First, he asked the judge to play the emperor, and then he took precautions. In this way, we will not be caught unprepared. "


    Ju said, "don''t worry, King Wei. I''ve made arrangements for this."


    Cao ang said, "that''s good."


    Ju continued: "in a word, we must be careful when we fight with Zhang Xiu. We can''t relax our vigilance. In my opinion, we have to send a letter to Liu Bei to make him ready all the time. "


    Cao ang said, "of course!"


    He didn''t stay and left soon.


    After he left, Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, Zhang Xiu said something today, which I deeply agree with. Yuan Shao has always been short-sighted. Once Jin is attacked, Yuan Shao is likely to withdraw. So in this case, we must be prepared to face Zhang Xiu alone. Now the fortifications around here are not good enough. Therefore, we should take advantage of this time to build fortifications to cope with the possible future situation. "


    Cao ang said, "what fengxiao said is true."


    He agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis and immediately arranged to prepare for the battle.

 Chapter 1010

    Qin army camp, Chinese army big account.


    Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang Song are all here.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "as for today''s talk with Jushi, I think we can pass orders to Chen Dao to make him pretend to attack and put pressure on Yuan Shao. Since the judge has to support Jushu, and even Jushu knows our plan, I''d like to see how he will choose. If he returns to the state of Jin, it will be very easy for us to break Cao Ang''s army. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "if Jushou does not return to the state of Jin, there will be a certain gap and contradiction between Yuan Shao and Jushou."


    Zhang Song said: "Your Majesty, if you can''t bear the pressure, you will lead your troops back to Yecheng. At that time, whether it will affect general Gao Lan''s side and his raid on Bingzhou. "


    "No influence!"


    Before Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, Jia Xu said: "the more so, the more you can deceive Yuan Shao. As long as Gaolan is successful, the state of Jin will be in chaos. Therefore, we can follow the trend. "


    Zhang Song stopped talking immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said: "yes, that''s it."


    He looks at Wang Yue and orders him. Wang Yue immediately informs the royal guards to send a message so that Chen Dao can take action.


    Jia Xu continued: "I don''t know if your majesty has found out. This time, Cao Ang''s side is missing one person."


    "Who?"


    Zhang Xiu asked.


    Jia Xu said, "Liu Bei!"


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, suddenly said: "it''s really so, from the beginning to the end, have never seen Liu Bei. Moreover, Liu Bei''s counselor Zhuge Liang was not in front of the army. Liu Bei and I hate each other. As long as he takes part in the war, he will certainly go out and even stand in the front. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    After a pause, Jia Xu said again: "even my minister guessed that as long as Liu Bei was in the territory of Wei, Cao ang and his majesty were at war, Liu Bei should be involved. But this time, I didn''t get involved. The only explanation is that Liu Bei, with a certain number of soldiers, is a surprise or an ambush. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what inference does Wen he have?"


    Jia Xu replied: "to your majesty, I think Liu Bei''s army may be on the way to Xuzhou. Xuzhou is isolated to the south of Qingzhou. Now if your majesty wants to attack Xuzhou, it will be unexpected, and even affect the Wei and Jin allied forces. Under such a premise, Liu Bei ambushed on the way early. As long as his Majesty''s surprise troops attacked, he might fall into ambush in the end. This is my guess. "


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said: "Wenhe, since Liu Bei is expected to be lying in ambush on the way, can we follow the trend and calculate Liu Bei?"


    Jia Xu said: "this is exactly my plan."


    After a pause, Jia Xu said: "in today''s situation, we can really calculate Liu Bei. However, it is not easy to calculate Liu Bei. After all, today''s Liu Bei must be on guard. So if we want to deal with Liu Bei, we have to postpone the plan for the time being. When Yuan Shao and Ju Shou collide, when Liu Bei loses patience, and even when Ju Shou is forced to take away the soldiers of Jin, in short, the calculation is to be carried out, but in a short time, we can''t do it. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s what we should do."


    ¡­¡­


    Hanoi County, dangyin county.


    The Langya camp, led by Chen Dao, is here. In fact, he wants to participate in the war of overthrowing the state of Wei. Only by participating in this war can we have a chance to make contributions. Staying in the territory of dangyin county can only contain Yuan Shao''s army, which is unable to attack for the time being.


    However, Chen did not relax the training of soldiers, and his Langya camp is still intensive.


    The army has a very strong fighting capacity.


    While Chen Dao was training his soldiers, a soldier quickly came to Chen Dao''s side and reported: "general, the royal guards have asked to see you. It''s news from your majesty."


    "I see!"


    When Chen Dao got the news, he got excited and immediately went to the Chinese Army''s tent.


    When he entered the Chinese Army''s tent, he saw the royal guards coming to deliver the message and said, "what''s your command?"


    Sentry way: "Your Majesty orders, please Chen general mobilize Langya camp, make feint Yuan Shao posture."


    Chen said, "can''t we really attack?"


    The royal guards didn''t understand and didn''t answer. They took out Zhang Xiu''s letter and handed it to Chen Dao, saying: "the specific situation is in this letter."


    After Chen arrived, he quickly browsed the letters. After he finished reading, he understood Zhang Xiu''s intention in his heart.


    Zhang Xiu really let him feint and forced Yuan Shao to withdraw.


    It''s just that Zhang Xiu doesn''t stipulate death either. She says that Chen Dao will move at random. With such an arrangement, Chen Dao has greater autonomy. As long as the opportunity is right, he can launch an attack.


    This is Chen Dao''s chance.


    Chen Dao waved his hand and said, "I see. You can step back."


    "Here it is


    The royal guards should fight.After the retreat of the royal guards, Chen Zhi immediately began to mobilize his troops to create a posture of attacking the state of Jin. With the action of Langya camp, the situation was soon discovered by Yuan soldiers on the border of dangyin County, and the news quickly spread back to Yecheng.


    When the news reached the auditor, the auditor suppressed the news and did not report it immediately. Because the judge knew Yuan Shao''s character very well. Once he knew that Chen Dao might attack, he was likely to let him withdraw.


    So the judge deliberately suppressed the news.


    However, the news was only suppressed for two days. On this day, Yuan Shang personally went to the palace to see Yuan Shao and told him that Chen Dao might invade the border. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang''s father and son were afraid of the Jin army.


    In particular, now that 60000 troops have been transferred, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang lack a sense of security. They feel that the security of Yecheng can not be guaranteed without the army.


    As soon as Yuan Shaoyi got the news, he immediately arranged for someone to inform him to enter the palace. As soon as he saw the judge, he immediately covered his face with abuse. After a while, he asked, "why don''t you report it in time? Judge, what are you doing


    The judge''s face was solemn and calm.


    This was expected a long time ago.


    In his expectation.


    The judge replied, "Your Majesty, about the Langya camp led by Chen Dao, which is operating at the border. After careful consideration, I found that this matter was only a false momentum, not a real attack. Therefore, I have never reported to you. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yuan Shao was furious.


    He is extremely dissatisfied with the way of trial and match.


    Yuan Shao brushed his sleeve and said, "judge, from today on, you should think about your mistakes behind closed doors and reflect on yourself. The crown prince will take over all affairs in the court, and he will be in charge of them. "


    "Here it is


    On hearing this, Yuan Shang became excited.


    Although he is the crown prince, he used to be in charge of government affairs, but now he is in charge of trial and match. Even though he can read the government affairs, he has no right to deal with it. Now, he has enough power.


    After hearing this, the judge did not retort and said again, "Your Majesty, about Chen Dao''s sending troops, I still think that this is a feint, not a real sending, and I don''t need to worry about him."


    "Back off!"


    Yuan Shao gave a big drink.


    With Yuan Shao''s order, the judge had no choice but to step down honestly.


    Yuan Shang said: "father, about Chen Dao''s possible attack. The children''s minister thought that he should immediately send an order to Ju Shu to send his troops back for help. It''s not that we don''t help Cao ang, it''s that our country, Jin, has suffered from war now. "


    "That''s what I mean!"


    Yuan Shao was very satisfied with Yuan Shang''s reply and said, "you can arrange it."


    "Here it is


    Yuan Shang bowed himself.


    After Yuan Shang turned and stepped down, Yuan Shao snorted and said, "Cao ang, your life and death have nothing to do with me. Now I can only choose to protect myself. "


    After talking about it, he turned and left the main hall and went straight to the back palace.

 Chapter 1011

    When Yuan Shang returned to his residence, he called together Su Hong and other subordinates, and then told them about Yuan Shao''s handling of the trial and match, and the news about Chen Dao''s arrest by the trial and match. Finally, he praised Su Hong.


    Because Chen Dao was at the border, he even made a gesture of attacking Yecheng. Su Hong told yuan Shang the news. So yuan Shang went to the palace to meet yuan Shang, and now he is in power.


    Su Hong was modest.


    To him, he is just carrying out Miao Yong''s life.


    After Yuan Shang gave some orders, he mobilized officials from the prince''s palace to take over the government affairs. Then he arranged for people to immediately send out news at an accelerated speed of 800 Li, ordering the withdrawal of troops.


    After Yuan Shang gave the order, Su Hong also rushed out the news and asked Miao to use it.


    Miao uses the royal guards under his command to deliver messages. The speed is the fastest. In a short time, he first sent the news of Yuan Shaoling''s withdrawal to Wang Yue of zhuxu county.


    Zhang Xiu got the news and did not take action for the time being.


    Not long after Zhang Xiu got the news, he met the soldiers in the army. Yuan Shang sent a decree directly, ordering Jushou to withdraw and return. After he accepted the edict, he sent away the messenger and sat down in the tent alone.


    In this purport, the matter of trial and match is mentioned.


    Today''s judges are ordered to think behind closed doors.


    When Jushou learned the news, he had some helplessness in his heart. He didn''t expect that the match didn''t resist after all.


    What to do?


    My heart, began to tangle.


    If we withdraw now, we will give Zhang Xiu a chance to seize the whole state of Wei. But if we do not withdraw, it is tantamount to a blatant protest against Yuan Shao''s order. When he returned to the state of Jin, he was bound to be dealt with by Yuan Shao.


    He is devoted to the public.


    Even if it is dealt with, he is not worried.


    What he was worried about was that Yuan Shao was furious and might even do something unexpected.


    "Alas..."


    He sighed and looked embarrassed.


    At this time, he didn''t know how to make a decision. At one time, he thought that there was a trial and match, so he was not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s means. But now, Zhang Xiu''s means also embarrassed him, and he didn''t know how to deal with it.


    Everything is extremely difficult.


    Little by little, time goes by, but it''s still sitting dead.


    His deep eyes cast a dilemma, but with the passage of time, the look in his eyes gradually firmed up, no longer the previous dignified entanglement, but a determined look.


    He has made up his mind.


    There will be no military orders.


    He led the army to fight to the end, and he firmly believed that Chen could not really attack, so he would not withdraw.


    This is my decision.


    "Somebody


    As soon as the master gave an order, an attendant immediately entered and bowed himself.


    He said, "please come to the king of Wei."


    "Here it is


    Soon Cao ang, Guo Jia and Xun you came to the tent together. Ju Shi''s eyes fell on Cao ang and said: "king of Wei, I just got your imperial edict, saying that Chen Dao''s activities at the border of dangyin county have made a gesture of attacking the state of Jin. Your majesty ordered me to withdraw my troops."


    "Ah


    Cao ang exclaimed.


    Rao Shi Cao ang is also calm, but all of a sudden, hearing the news is like five thunderbolts. Because the current news, for him, was a bolt from the blue. Because if he lacks the 60000 excellent soldiers, Cao ang can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    Cao ang said: "Duke Ju, didn''t you say that there was a judge in the rear


    Jushi sighed: "now, the judge has been removed. Not only that, the judge has been ordered to think behind closed doors at home. Today, the person in charge of the government is no longer yuan Shang, but yuan Shang, who is the one who encourages the withdrawal of troops. So your majesty has ordered me to withdraw immediately. "


    Cao ang sighed again and said, "well, how did Duke Ju decide?"


    "I''ll be outside, but I won''t be subject to military orders."


    He had a sharp eye and a firm answer.


    This is his decision.


    That''s what he did.


    After hearing this, Cao ang stood up with a grateful look on his face, bowed to Ju Shou and said, "the justice of Ju is high, and Cao ang admires it."


    It can be said that for Cao ang, it was only when he stayed that the state of Wei could resist Zhang Xiu.


    Ju Shu shook his head and said, "it''s not how righteous Ju Shu is, but if he doesn''t rush to help the state of Wei, waiting for the state of Wei to be destroyed by Zhang Xiu. Then, the next step is the fall of Jin. This is not what we want to see. "


    Cao ang said, "thank you, Duke Ju, anyway."


    Guo Jia said: "in fact, there are two ways to ensure the army to stay, but also the integrity of justice."He said, "what is the method of both perfection?"


    Guo Jia said, "the army is still the one who has the final say. But he immediately wrote a letter to Yuan Shang, saying that Duke Ju had been under house arrest and could not move. In this way, Duke Ju has an explanation, which is not against the military order. "


    "Not right!"


    I don''t even think about it. I just shake my head.


    He looked sharp and said, "since I''ve decided to stay here, I won''t do anything else. What''s more, I''m here. Who can control me. What''s more, it''s said that I was imprisoned, what do the soldiers think, and where does your Majesty''s face go. So now, no matter what, we can''t take such measures. "


    "That''s all!"


    Cao ang shook his head and spoke.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a small school outside the camp rushed in quickly. The little school looked alarmed and said in a loud voice, "my Lord, it''s not good. Outside the barracks, the Qin army shoots bows and arrows into the barracks, which are bound with a note saying that your majesty has ordered you to take your troops back to the state of Jin. It is said that the state of Jin was attacked by the Qin army and was in danger. "


    "Zhang Xiu is so fast!"


    When he heard the news reported by the school, he sighed in his heart.


    He really did not expect that Zhang Xiu''s reaction speed would be so fast. Here just had the news, Zhang Xiu has arranged people to deliver the news, in order to disturb the morale of his army.


    Cao ang also frowned and said: "Duke Ju, the news has spread, and it must be impossible to suppress it. In this case, what are you going to do? "


    Cao ang was still worried that he could not bear it.


    If the army withdraws, Cao Ang''s situation will be extremely delicate, even quite dangerous.


    "The more Zhang Xiu forced me to withdraw, the more he showed that he was eager to break the current situation. Therefore, even if Zhang Xiu makes a move, I will not agree to withdraw. In this war, I will fight to the end. "


    Cao ang said: "Ju Gong Gao Yi!"


    At this moment, Cao ang also had great admiration for Jushu. He was a man who devoted himself to the overall interests of the state of Jin, regardless of his own life and death.


    Such a person is admirable.


    He looked at Cao ang and said, "King Wei, go back. Next, I will summon the soldiers of Jin State under my command and tell them that this is Zhang Xiu''s plot to force me to withdraw. Of course, I will also say your Majesty''s orders. In a word, I will pacify the soldiers and make them stay in zhuxu county with one mind. "


    "Thank you, Duke Ju!"


    Cao ang arched his hand and left with Xun you and Guo Jia. Because of Ju''s words, Cao Ang''s heart is also relaxed, and then just need to stick to it, and he hopes Ju can stay for a longer time.


    Only in this way can Cao ang win.

 Chapter 1012

    When he came out of the barracks in his armor, he ordered his soldiers to assemble.


    All soldiers, gather in the school yard.


    All soldiers, look panicked.


    Because they were worried that the state of Jin would be attacked and their families would be in danger, they had no courage to stay here and wanted to return to the state of Jin as soon as possible.


    He listened to the comments, but did not rush to speak, but stood quietly. As time went by, the soldiers around kept silent when they saw that they were not speaking.


    A pair of eyes, fall on me.


    There was no sound in the school yard.


    Ju Shou took a breath and said in a loud voice: "soldiers, Zhang Xiu arranged people to project bows and arrows into the camp. The information recorded on the note is half true and half false. The reason why it is true is that your majesty has indeed ordered me to take the army with me and immediately withdraw to the state of Jin, and no longer help the state of Wei to resist Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "The news is true."


    "It''s not false."


    "Another news that Jin was attacked by Zhang Xiu''s army is false, because now Zhang Xiu''s army is gathered here in zhuxu county and in dangyin County, only Chen Dao''s more than 20000 elites."


    Ju said: "Zhang Xiu vowed that Chen Dao''s Langya camp would attack the state of Jin. Even now, Chen Dao''s Langya camp is really operating on the border of dangyin county. It''s like attacking the state of Jin."


    "In fact, it''s bluffing."


    "It''s false news."


    "If you think about it carefully, Chen Dao is only a little over 20000 elite. How dare he attack our country Jin? That''s because he can''t live long enough to choose such a way of attack."


    "So you don''t have to worry about the news from the state of Jin," he said. As long as Zhang Xiu is in zhuxu county and his army is here, you don''t have to worry at all. "


    He talked and analyzed the situation.


    After the soldiers of the state of Jin heard this, they were a little relieved. In the army, Jushu is a man of great prestige, who can lead the soldiers to believe him. Therefore, the soldiers believe his words.


    It''s the prestige of the government.


    It''s also my ability.


    The expression on Ju Shu''s face was solemn. At this time, the soldiers'' voice was not very loud, so Ju Shu continued: "Zhang Xiu''s camp was going to cause the Jin state to be attacked, and even put pressure on his majesty to send an order for us to withdraw. In fact, Zhang Xiu deliberately did so, intending to take this opportunity to ambush us."


    "Along with your majesty, you have fought with Zhang Xiu several times. You all know that Zhang Xiu is very cunning. If you seize the opportunity, you will make a surprise attack. Just imagine, once we withdraw, will Zhang Xiu let us withdraw? "


    "What Zhang Xiu wants to do is ambush us on the way. Zhang Xiu''s mind, I have guessed thoroughly. I can''t hide such a trick from you. So under the current situation, I believe you can also have your own judgment, and know that our retreat now is in Zhang Xiu''s heart, which must make Zhang Xiu happy. "


    The author puts forward his own analysis.


    When the soldiers heard these words, they talked about them one by one.


    They didn''t think about that before.


    Now I think it''s reasonable.


    At the beginning of what he said just now, he thought of it temporarily in order to let the soldiers stay and retreat in no hurry. But now he thought it was very possible.


    Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention is reasonable.


    At the moment, the school field of the voice of discussion, one after another, constantly sounded. Countless soldiers discussed it, but it lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and all the soldiers gradually subsided.


    One of the generals in the army yelled, "Lord Ju, what should we do?"


    "Yes, what shall we do?"


    "As soon as we retreat, we may be ambushed, which is too dangerous."


    "Please make up your mind."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the generals in the army were shouting. More and more soldiers were shouting, so it became a decision to leave the matter of whether or not to retreat to us.


    As a matter of fact, it should have been decided whether to withdraw or not. It''s just that after such words and such a guidance, all the soldiers give the right of choice to Ju Shou. Even if Ju Shou makes a decision, the soldiers will not say anything, and they will not contradict anything in private.


    You raise your hand and press down.


    After a while, everyone''s eyes fell on him again.


    Ju Shoulang said: "soldiers, your majesty has ordered us to retreat. But now, as soon as we retreat, we may be ambushed by Zhang Xiu, or ambushed by Zhang Xiu. With Zhang Xiu''s method of cutting grass and not removing roots, I''m afraid that Zhang Xiu''s ambush will wipe out the whole army. "


    "So now, no retreat."


    "Let''s stay for a while and hang out Zhang Xiu''s ambush. In this way, Zhang Xiu''s ambush, over time, will lose the fighting spirit, will lose vigilance, and will no longer think that we want to retreat. ""We''ll retreat then."


    Ju zhengse said: "so my decision is that we will wait for a while and then consider withdrawing. I will make it clear to your majesty and expect that your majesty will agree to it. "


    "We listen to Lord Ju."


    Among the generals below, one of them called back.


    The rest of the generals agreed.


    Now the situation is unfavorable. If we retreat at will, the consequences will be quite dangerous. So in today''s situation, it''s better to stay for a while before thinking about leaving.


    Seeing this, I was relieved.


    At least, it has stabilized people''s minds.


    He decided to stay, and then try his best to help Cao ang resist Zhang Xiu''s army. However, if he said that he would resist Yuan Shao''s order and refuse to retreat, the soldiers who supported him would not say anything. They must be loyal. But there are also soldiers who do not want to stay and fight to the death, so the soldiers below will be divided and the people will not be unified.


    Now, with only a slight adjustment, everything is different. The soldiers in the army think that the arrangement is the most reliable and mature way, so they do not conflict with it.


    He waved his hand and said, "disband!"


    At the command, the soldiers left one after another. After all the soldiers left, the captain of the army was relieved and went straight back to his camp to write letters.


    This is for Yuan Shao.


    Because he''s going to postpone his retreat.


    The content of the letter changed again. It didn''t mean to resist the order or that Zhang Xiu''s army might ambush him on the way. Instead, it directly said that the sentry found Zhang Xiu''s ambush on the way to Yecheng.


    Once you retreat, you''re in danger.


    So hold the retreat.


    In this way, there is more room for change than being imprisoned by Cao ang or saying no retreat. Only with such an arrangement can we ensure the safety of the company.


    This is what we do.


    After he had written the letter, he immediately called for the sentry to send it out. After finishing all this, he raised his eyes and looked to the direction where Zhang Xiu was stationed outside the camp. His eyes were deep, as if he had seen through the camp, and saw the camp of Zhang Xiu in a distant place. His eyes were full of fighting spirit.


    He has now given the answer.


    So what should Zhang Xiu do?


    He waited to see what Zhang Xiu would do next and how to break the situation.

 Chapter 1013

    Qin army camp.


    During this period of time, Zhang Xiu had some leisure, because there was no need to deal with Liu Bei for the time being, because the time had not come. As for attacking Cao Ang''s camp, it''s not necessary for the moment, so Zhang Xiu is quite idle now, just dealing with some government affairs in the camp.


    Wang Yue came in a hurry. After entering the barracks, he reported: "Your Majesty, just received the news from the army of Wei and Jin dynasties that Ju Shu did not return to the state of Jin."


    "In front of the soldiers of the state of Jin, he said that once they retreat, they will surely be ambushed by us, so they have to postpone their retreat. "To do so, in fact, is to delay not to go back, for fear that Cao ang will be broken by us."


    Wang Yue said: "it''s just that he delayed so much that he expected that Yuan Shao would be furious when he got the news."


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if Yuan Shao was very angry, he would be away from home and would not be subject to military orders. Even if Yuan Shao was angry, he was helpless. So Yuan Shao''s anger can only be tolerated. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "now, we still need the last straw to make Yuan Shao completely angry."


    Wang Yue said, "please give me your orders."


    He thinks it''s time for the royal guards to act again.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the last straw is not us, but Gaolan and pound. Even if he ordered him to withdraw, even if he was angry, he couldn''t control him for the time being. After all, Chen Dao was feigning and didn''t really enter the territory of Jin. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "so when pound and Gao Lan win, they can turn Yuan Shao''s anger at Ju Shi into all resentment, and even into killing intention. Send orders to pound and Gaolan to speed up their actions. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned to arrange.


    Up to now, there is no news from pound and Gao Lan. For a moment, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know what''s going on in the front line.


    However, Zhang Xiu believes that this is a must win.


    ¡­¡­


    Bingzhou, Xihe county.


    This is a county in the middle of Bingzhou. Compared with Shangjun in the West and Taiyuan in the East, it is close to Hedong county. Further to the north, it was once the seat of the Royal Court of the southern Huns.


    Today, the southern Huns have long been destroyed.


    Xihe county is located in Lishi County, which is only one place apart from Zhongyang County. Outside Lishi County, about five or six miles away, there was a large army hiding in a mountain forest.


    This army is the 20000 elite troops led by Gao Lan.


    In this raid on Bingzhou, Gaolan and pound made a plan. It was a surprise attack on Bingzhou, and they wanted to directly win the high-ranking herdsmen of Bingzhou. Only in this way can the state of Jin be shaken completely.


    Before that, Gao Lan and pound had sent a small group of soldiers to Lishi County, disguised as bandits.


    Because today''s Lishi county has few troops.


    More than 800 small groups of troops took Lishi County by surprise. Then after making a noise here, the news spread to Bingzhou and Taiyuan. Finally, the senior cadres would not be able to sit still.


    What Gao Lan needs is that Gao Gan personally leads the troops to fight against Gao Gan, and then makes a concerted effort to defeat him.


    This is Gaolan''s plan.


    Although the plan is simple, it is the most suitable one. After all, Bingzhou has a vast territory and a large place. If you want to go directly to Taiyuan, you will not be able to defeat Gao Gan in the end. After all, there are many obstacles. I don''t know how long it will take to reach Taiyuan. It''s too time consuming.


    Now, Gao Lan and pound are waiting for the news.


    And so on to Lishi county''s small troop, can obtain the victory, thus establishes this victory first step. Both Gao Lan and pound are very confident, because they are sure to win this battle and they will never lose it.


    "Rustle!"


    All of a sudden, a rapid sound of footsteps came.


    A soldier came quickly.


    In the soldier''s hand, there was also a letter. He came to Gao Lan''s side and reported: "General Gao, your majesty has just sent it. Please read it."


    After Gao Lan took it over, he opened the letter and scanned it quickly. Then he threw it to pound and said, "Your Majesty, let''s speed up and win Bingzhou as soon as possible. In particular, the battlefield of the state of Wei needs us to open up the situation here. "


    After pound finished reading, he said: "even if his majesty urges, there is nothing he can do now. If we don''t capture Lishi County, we can''t deal with senior cadres. Our plan is the most reliable and feasible. If we change our plan, we may not be able to kill senior cadres smoothly. "


    Gao Lan said with a smile: "Ling Ming, what are you in a hurry? Your majesty just urged us to speed up, but did not ask us to change our plan. Now, just follow the plan. The rest, for the time being. When it''s time to speed up, we''ll speed up. All in all, now wait for the news. "


    "What the general said is true," said pound


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, not far away, there were soldiers shouting.But it was a sentinel, who came flying, with an excited look on his face. He came to Gao Lan''s side and reported: "general, it''s a big deal. Our people have successfully conquered Lishi county and seized it. Now, the prefect of Xihe county and the magistrate of Lishi county have left Lishi county to flee. "


    "Good!"


    Gao Lan''s face was full of smiles.


    The first step to success is to capture Lishi county.


    Gao Lan arranged for the soldiers to report the news, but the army remained in the forest. After dark, Gao Lan took three thousand soldiers out of the mountain and went to Lishi county.


    Marching at night, no one knows.


    So Gaolan easily entered Lishi county and joined the soldiers in the city.


    After that, Gaolan arranged for people to post a notice the next day, saying that they were dissatisfied with Yuan Shao''s exorbitant taxes and tyranny, so they wanted to fight against Yuan Shao and wantonly recruit soldiers.


    There are a lot of recruits.


    At this time, pound took the rest of the army, broken into parts, scattered to work, but in two days, all 20000 troops had entered Lishi county.


    In addition, the people who took part in the war were very popular for a while. It was claimed that tens of thousands of people had gathered, no less than 30000 or 40000 people. Such news spread, the whole Xihe County shake, the news also quickly spread.


    When the news came out, Gao Lan even arranged for soldiers to directly capture Zhongyang County in the south, connecting Lishi county and Zhongyang County. For a time, the momentum was even greater.


    Gao Lan announced that the commander of the rebel army was Ma Yuan.


    Therefore, the name of Ma Yuan spread all over Bingzhou. When the news reached Gaogan in Taiyuan, it was in the middle of October. When Gaogan learned that there was turmoil in Xihe County, he was really upset by a man named Ma Yuan, especially when he learned that Ma Yuan occupied most of Xihe county.


    Xihe county is the hinterland of Bingzhou.


    If Xihe County lost control, then Gao Gan''s control over Bingzhou would be weakened.


    This is what senior cadres don''t want to see.


    Gao Gan learned that Ma Yuan had 30000 or 40000 troops, but he didn''t pay attention to them. For Gao Gan, these rebel woodlouse are just a motley crew. If he leads the army, he will be able to destroy each other easily.


    Gao Gan mobilized 20000 troops to leave Taiyuan and head for Xihe county.


    From Taiyuan to Xihe County, the army under Gao Gan''s command marched rapidly, but it took only eight days to enter. In Lishi County, it only took a little more than ten days for senior cadres.


    The closer to Lishi County, the more news Gao Gan got.


    At this time, Gao Gan got the news that there were more than 50000 thieves in Lishi county. Such a team, a large number of people, but still did not put senior appreciation.


    A mob!

 Chapter 1014

    Gao gan led the army, did not stop, with the army, straight to Lishi county. His twenty thousand elite soldiers, one by one, are full of high morale.


    Because the soldiers also despised the mobs who captured Lishi county.


    From senior cadres to ordinary soldiers of the state of Jin, they all hold the same view. They all agreed that the capture of Lishi county was nothing more than a matter of hand turning. Even as soon as their army arrived, the mob in Lishi county had to surrender.


    This is the atmosphere of the whole army.


    When the soldiers left the county, they quickly set out to kill. The whole army, like a raging beast, lay outside the city, as if to swallow up the whole Lishi county.


    Gao Gan rode forward and said, "where is Ma Yuan?"


    "I am Ma Yuan!"


    Pound stepped forward and answered in a loud voice.


    Pound used to be under Ma Chao''s command. With Ma Chao''s surrender, pound went to Liangzhou with Gao Lan very early. There was almost no road in the war in the Central Plains, so no one knew that pound, especially Gao Gan, had been in Bingzhou all the time and had never been to Bingzhou in person.


    Gao Gan knows that there is such a person as pound, but he has never met pound.


    This era is not like the development of science and technology in later generations. Countless people know that a person''s appearance can be directly linked, but in this era, it is impossible, so senior cadres don''t know pound.


    Gao Gan knows Gao Lan. The problem is that Gao Lan has been hiding behind. Even if Gao Gan knows Gao Lan, it''s useless.


    Pound pretended to be Ma Yuan. He looked rough and said, "Gao Gan, Yuan Shao is going to be defeated. If you follow Yuan Shao, there is no future. In particular, Yuan Shao is extremely tyrannical. He is a tyrant. You can''t follow him for a long time. "


    "Now, get off your horse and surrender to me. When I take Bingzhou and defeat Yuan Shao, I will take charge of the army and make you a senior official."


    "At least, a hussar general can''t run. What do you think?"


    Pound said: "don''t be in a hurry to refuse. If you think about it, Yuan Shao was attacked by Daqin. He won''t be long. You follow me, Ma Yuan. If you can be prosperous, there will be no danger. "


    "Rampant!"


    Gao Gan, with a cold face, said with disdain, "just like you Ma Yuan, you are just dominating Lishi county. There is no tiger in the mountain. Monkey is king. I''ll lead the troops here. I won''t say anything about attacking you. I''ll be here. Do you dare to fight with me? "


    It''s a war!


    Gao Gan''s inner thought is to kill each other with the help of the war. As long as he kills each other, he is equal to capturing the bandits and capturing the king. Then, the next step is to defeat the bandits gathered in Lishi county and to win the war, which is easy.


    This is the idea of Gao Gan.


    When pound heard that, his heart was also happy.


    This is an opportunity!


    Pound''s martial arts is extremely powerful. Even if he is challenged like this, he has the chance to kill his opponent. As long as Gao Gan is directly killed, it is even easier to defeat his army.


    Pound''s mind turned, and he soon had an idea and said: "Gao Gan, you are heaven. If you don''t go on the right road, there is no way to enter hell. Since you are going to die today, I will help you today. "


    "Fight


    However, high officials are not afraid.


    On the contrary, he was happy because Ma Yuan''s coming out meant that he could kill Ma Yuan and win the battle easily.


    "Gao Gan, wait!"


    Pound said and turned. However, he turned around and didn''t go down to the castle immediately. Instead, he looked at Gao Lan standing behind him and said, "Lao Gao, I''m sure I can win the fight with Gao Gan. However, if I want to kill him, I won''t know until I have a fight. So you''re on the tower, keeping an eye on Gao Gan. "


    "Once Gao Gan is defeated and wants to retreat, but I can''t remember, you will shoot an arrow directly and kill him from behind. Only in this way can we guarantee the safety of this war. "


    "As long as Gao Gan is dead, the war of merging States will be completely over."


    Pound said: "in this way, we can speed up the war, so that your majesty can defeat the Wei and Jin allied forces in the shortest time and win the final victory."


    Gao Lan said, "don''t worry. I''ll keep an eye on you. If Gao Gan fails to retreat, I will shoot him. But at the beginning, you can be a little clumsy and try out the martial arts of Gao Gan. "


    "I understand!"


    Pound took the sword from the soldiers and went straight down to the castle.


    Soon the gate creaked open.


    Pound rode out of Lishi county with a sword in his hand. He didn''t even wear armour on his body. His clothes were ordinary, simple coarse linen. This kind of dress, with his rough face, especially in Liangzhou all the year round, has a slightly dark complexion, so it can''t be seen that he is a general in a high position.


    This kind of dress makes senior cadres feel at ease.Gao Gan sneered and said, "Ma Yuan, you are not afraid of death. Since you are going to seek death, I will help you today and send you to hell myself. Remember that when you saw the king of hell, you told him that it was me who killed you! "


    "Kill


    Gao Gan, with a long gun in his hand, drove his horse forward.


    Pound is also forward.


    It was just a blink of an eye. The two sides had already met each other. The big guns and swords hit each other. It was a draw. However, pound was a weak point because he only used 60% of his strength.


    But the top man is very proud.


    He has the advantage.


    He thinks that this battle, he is sure to win, so Gao Gan once again waved his gun, quick shot.


    Pound kept blocking. Although he was slightly weaker than Gao Gan with 60% of his strength, such a way of fighting made Gao Gan go all out, and even didn''t stay at all.


    In the twinkling of an eye, they have fought more than 30 moves, and the power of senior cadres has begun to decline. At this time, the senior cadres were in a hurry to attack and began to panic.


    After all, he is eager for success.


    He is eager to win.


    All of a sudden, Pound''s eyes brightened, because the high-ranking cadres were eager to throw their guns at him. This is a long gun like a stick, but also with the strongest force to bombard. When a senior cadre does not make any protection and tries his best to attack, he is breaking his way.


    Pound was ready to move and wring his waist. He held the sword in both hands. The sword in his hand had already been cut out. With the cutting out of the knife, the blade broke through the air, and even there was a sharp howling sound.


    "Dang!"


    The blade collided with the barrel of the gun.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Gao Gan snorted, and an incredible look appeared on his face.


    Great power.


    Under the impact of the power of this blow, Gao Gan only felt that the tiger''s mouth was cracked, and he could not hold the gun even under the sharp pain of his palm. The gun barrel was knocked out directly. Pound''s blade, however, is indomitable and instantly falls on Gao Gan''s left shoulder.


    The blade breaks through the armor and cuts into the flesh easily.


    "Yes


    The blade went down, down Gao Gan''s shoulder, leaving a half foot long wound.


    The blood flowed from the wound.


    Gao Gan couldn''t help screaming. Although he was confused and didn''t understand why "Ma Yuan" became so fierce at once, years of experience told him that he was going to retreat immediately, so he didn''t have any hesitation and drove his horse forward. Now the direction of his horse''s head, just facing his army, is suitable for his rapid retreat.


    As Gao Gan retreated, pound looked up to the city.


    Just now, his blade was one step slower. In particular, the direction of other war horses is their own army. It is even more difficult for them to turn around and pursue.


    At this moment, Gao Lan on the tower was already ready. At the moment when Gao Gan drove his horse to retreat, he released his bow and arrow. With the buzzing of the bow string, the bow and arrow had come out of the string and went straight to Gao Gan''s back.


    "Whew!"


    The bow and arrow break through the air as fast as a meteor.


    When Gao Gan ran forward and got rid of the pursuit, he thought he could escape the disaster. Suddenly, his ears moved and he heard the sound of breaking the air behind him.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp arrow, straight into the back of Gao Gan, pierced the heart. The force on the arrow is great, directly penetrating Gao Gan''s heart and coming out from his chest.


    Drop by drop of blood, falling from the arrow.


    Endless pain, spread all over Gao Gan''s body, he opened his mouth, mouth to speak, but the next moment, the body is uncontrolled shaking, plop, it has fallen to the ground.

 Chapter 1015

    "I''m Ezra Pound. Gao Gan is dead. We will surrender immediately. Those who do not surrender will be killed without mercy! "


    Pound made his identity clear when Gao Gan was killed.


    Creak!


    At the same time, the gate opened.


    Gao Lan has already taken 20000 elite soldiers, as well as some miscellaneous soldiers recruited later, to fight out of the city. At this moment, the officers and soldiers of countless senior cadres were all stunned.


    Qin Jun!


    This is Qin Jun!


    This is not a troublemaker.


    Originally, the soldiers of the state of Jin were afraid of the Qin army from the bottom of their bones and did not dare to fight with the Qin army. Now Gao Gan was killed again. Gao Lan and pound led a large army to kill him. In a moment, the morale of these soldiers in the state of Jin was destroyed, and everyone was afraid.


    Some soldiers fled, but the vast majority stayed where they were.


    Gaolan also cried out: "I am Daqin Gaolan. You must surrender immediately, or you will be killed."


    When Gao Lan and pound are together, they are full of murderous spirit. In particular, the army led by the two men went straight ahead and attacked the soldiers of the state of Jin.


    When the distance between the two sides became closer, all the soldiers in the front of the array were scared, and no one dared to resist. They just heard the sound of clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clan.


    It''s just a matter of time. Except for those who fled from the rear, all the others surrendered.


    Gaolan and pound didn''t go after the escaped men, so they immediately reorganized the army and detained the surrendered prisoners. Now that he has shown his identity, Gao Lan begins to reorganize the soldiers he recruited before, leaving only the young and strong. The rest of the unqualified soldiers either stay in the army as auxiliary soldiers or are all demobilized.


    The army doesn''t leave behind useless people.


    Gao Lan quickly wrote a letter and sent it to Zhang Xiu in zhuxu county. Then Gao Lan began to arrange for people to widely spread the news that Gao Gan was killed. In addition, he rushed to Taiyuan.


    Now Gao Gan was killed, which is the opportunity to win Bingzhou. Taking advantage of the fact that there is no one in Bingzhou, it is easy to seize Bingzhou. When Gao Lan and pound attacked the city and plundered the land, the news of Gao Gan''s death and the collapse of Bingzhou spread to Jizhou and Yecheng.


    When Yuan Shang got the news, he was confused.


    Gao Gan is dead!


    Bingzhou has fallen!


    For the state of Jin, this is bad news.


    Not daring to delay, yuan left the prince''s residence in a hurry and went straight to the palace. He came to the palace. At this time, Yuan Shao was still hanging out in the back palace. He was still inverting the Phoenix.


    Yuan Shang was worried and did not dare to delay, so he ordered the servant to inform him. It can be imagined that at this time Yuan Shao was disturbed, and his heart was extremely angry.


    Yuan Shao came out even though he was angry.


    Seeing yuan Shang, Yuan Shao said with a gloomy face: "prince, what kind of event is it that you can''t wait to report. It''s dead, or it''s lost! "


    Yuan Shang said: "father Huang, Gao Gan died, and Bingzhou fell."


    Boom!


    Yuan Shao''s mind was like five thunders.


    Originally, he was turning Luan Feng upside down. He was not in good health. Now when he heard the news from Yuan Shang, he was in a trance. His legs softened and he fell to the ground. He was really scared by the news.


    Bingzhou is his hinterland, but also the Western defense line of Jin.


    Gao Gan is also his confidant.


    Once Bingzhou is lost, it means that Yuan Shao will be short of a strategic depth, or even in danger. Before that, Yuan Shao always believed that the Langya camp under Zhang Xiu would attack Jin and Yecheng. So Yuan Shao''s main forces were concentrated in the front line of Yecheng, but no one thought that Zhang Xiu''s army had won Bingzhou.


    Yuan Shang quickly stepped forward, helped Yuan Shao up and said, "father, now Bingzhou is lost, what should we do?"


    Yuan Shao asked, "what''s the matter? What''s the matter with Bingzhou. Why is it so good that a high official dies and a state loses him? "


    Yuan Shang explained immediately and said: "no one thought that the army led by Gao Lan and pound would sneak into Lishi County, or even disguise themselves as thieves and bandits and seize Lishi County quietly. As a result, Gao gan led his troops to suppress the bandits and eventually died in the hands of Gao Lan and pound. This Gaolan is also familiar with Bingzhou. Now Gaolan is in Bingzhou. Our army can''t keep it at all. "


    Yuan Shao''s expression changed again and again.


    He has not gone to provoke Zhang Xiu, but unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu still comes to attack him. Even now, even Bingzhou has been lost. After he lost Bingzhou, there was only Jizhou left, and his strength was shrinking unprecedentedly.


    Yuan Shang asked him what to do and what he could do?


    All of a sudden, Yuan Shao asked, "where is Ju Shi?"


    Yuan Shao had ordered juxu county to withdraw its troops before, but to this day, Yuan Shao has not yet withdrawn. In such a situation, Yuan Shao was a little annoyed.Yuan Shang said: "in reply to my father and emperor, two days ago, my son''s ministers received a reply from Ju Shi. He said that he was worried about being ambushed on the way back and wanted to find a time to withdraw. The son minister thought, this matter does not need to report to the father emperor, again orders, orders Ju to withdraw immediately. I just don''t know whether to withdraw now. "


    "You''re right to ask him to withdraw immediately."


    Yuan Shao''s face showed approval.


    Yuan Shang said: "father, according to the son''s point of view, it''s easy to be ambushed on the road. But we have a total of 60000 troops, where are we so vulnerable to ambush. It''s just a pretext given by me. It''s intentional. My father, this will not be accepted by foreign military orders. It must be because he is not willing to withdraw, but he does not dare to disobey his father''s orders. So he found a reason. Now, it is more and more arrogant. Even before that, even the judges and matchmakers opened their eyes to the public. "


    "Damn it, damn it!"


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "at the critical moment, he also helped the state of Wei. Today, Jin is about to be beaten to the door by Gao Lan and pound, but he has not withdrawn. Damn it


    Yuan Shang said: "I don''t know if I will withdraw after receiving the order from my son''s minister again. However, the minister estimated that he would not withdraw. The reason is very simple. I always think that Zhang Xiu will not attack the state of Jin. "


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    Yuan Shao kept drinking and scolding.


    At this time, Yuan Shao had lost his mind and was extremely worried and angry.


    After a long time, Yuan Shao recovered. He said in a deep voice, "prince, you should arrange people to go to zhuxu County as soon as possible. If, on the way, our troops have already withdrawn, that''s all. If Ju Shu hasn''t withdrawn, take him down immediately, detain him in my custody, and return to Yecheng with him and the army. "


    "Here it is


    Yuan Shang got the order, took the imperial edict, then turned and left.


    After Yuan Shang returned to the prince''s residence, he quickly called together a group of aides and assistant officials of the prince''s residence, and said that people should be sent to dispatch troops back, and that people should be sent to deal with the affairs.


    But after Yuan Shang said it, there was no response. Because Bingzhou is lost now, there must be war in the state of Wei in the next step. Now it''s very dangerous to go and lead the soldiers back.


    On this occasion, it is most appropriate to stay in Yecheng.


    This is the safest.


    So no one wants to go.


    Yuan Shang was also stunned. He did not expect that none of them would go. At this time, Su Hong stepped forward. With a look of awe inspiring justice, he held his head high and threw his head on the ground. He said in a voice: "Your Highness the prince is very kind to your humble position. Su Hong, a humble official, is willing to go to zhuxu county and bring back the army and Jushou. "


    "Well, it''s worthy of being master Su, whom the prince relies on."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shang showed a smile on his face, which can be regarded as resolving the embarrassing situation just now. He immediately took out the previous Yuan Shao to the imperial edict to Su Hong, let Su Hong immediately set out.

 Chapter 1016

    Although Su Hong started immediately, after he left, he went back to the contact place of the royal guards to see Miao Yong. Because it''s a big deal now. He has to discuss with Miao Yong about such an important matter.


    When Su Hong said that he was going to lead the troops and escorted Ju Shu back, Miao flashed a light in his eyes and said with emotion, "Su Hong, this time you are really lucky."


    "All the officials under yuan Shang''s command were straw bags. They didn''t dare to go to zhuxu county to bring soldiers back. They were afraid of death. But you are not the same. In my opinion, if you go to lead the soldiers back to Yecheng, there will be countless operational space. "


    "Don''t go too fast now. I''ll arrange someone to send them to your majesty at 800 Li. Please make a decision and see how your majesty arranges them."


    "In my opinion, your majesty may eat these 60000 elite soldiers, so you have a chance to make great contributions. With this great achievement, you will really make a great success at that time. "


    Miao said with a straight face: "brother Su, you have made a great success. You can''t forget your old brother!"


    Su Hong said with a smile, "even if I''m successful, it''s the soldier you brought out. It''s your brother."


    "Go


    Miao nodded.


    To tell you the truth, he is a little envious of Su Hong. The times make heroes. This is Su Hong''s luck. Other people would not get such an opportunity.


    After Su Hong left, Miao Yong immediately wrote a letter and arranged for someone to send him off as soon as possible.


    When Su Hong rushed to zhuxu county and Zhang Xiu was in the camp, she got a letter sent back by Gao Lan and learned about the fall of Bingzhou and the killing of Gao Gan.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is an opportunity.


    That''s what he''s going to break.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for people to call Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang song to discuss the matter, quickly told Gao Lan about breaking Bingzhou and killing Gao Gan, and then said, "if Bingzhou Gao Gan is killed, it can be expected that Yuan Shao will force Jushou to withdraw. Before that, he was unwilling to withdraw and insisted on delaying. But now, even if he wants to delay, it is impossible. "


    "Here comes the opportunity of this war!"


    "Originally, our plan was to prepare to fight against Liu Bei who was ambushing in Xuzhou, but now Bingzhou has won such a great victory. I think we can first wipe out the retreating Jin army, and then turn to the Cao Wei army."


    The previous plan was relatively conservative.


    Now Bingzhou Gao Gan was killed, Gao Lan and pound won a big victory, so Zhang Xiu is ready to make adjustments.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and nodded: "what your majesty said is feasible."


    He didn''t feel anything wrong.


    In fact, Jia Xu believed that under the situation of the collapse of Bingzhou and the complete decline of the state of Jin, the coalition forces of Wei and Jin collapsed, so even if it was a strong attack now, it was extremely safe.


    There is no suspense about this war.


    Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty, I agree with your humble position."


    Zhang Song said, "I agree with you in your humble position."


    All the counsellors agreed with Zhang Xiu''s decision. When they reached a consensus, Wang Yue rushed in. He bowed to Zhang Xiu with a solemn look, and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, I just received the message from Miao Yong in Yecheng. This is the most urgent news. Please read it


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, she quickly checked it.


    The message in the letter is that Su Hong is going to take information about the withdrawal of 60000 troops with him.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu saw the content of the letter, she couldn''t help laughing.


    In the laughter, it was full of joy.


    Laughter, full of joy.


    The letter Miao used was too timely. As the saying goes, if you want to sleep, someone will give you a pillow. For Zhang Xiu, the letter Miao used now has the same meaning.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said that he wanted to deal with the soldiers of the state of Jin led by Ju Shou. Unexpectedly, it was Su Hong who led the soldiers back in the twinkling of an eye. Moreover, Su Hong had to detain Ju Shou. With Su Hong, it would be very easy to win this group of soldiers of the state of Jin.


    That''s the good thing.


    When Jia Xu saw Zhang Xiu''s hearty smile, he couldn''t help asking, "Your Majesty, but what''s the good news about Jin?"


    "Yes


    "And it''s great news," Zhang said


    Jia Xu said, "what is the news?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "Miao Yong sent a letter saying that Yuan Shao really ordered the army of Jin to retreat again. The most important thing is that this time the person in charge of the withdrawal is Su Hong, the royal guard who lurks around yuan Shang. This time, Su Hong not only wanted to take away the army of Jin, but also sent orders to remove Jushou, and then put him in custody. You said, "isn''t that great news?"


    Jia Xu also couldn''t help laughing: "congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to your majesty. It''s a coincidence that it can''t be written. God bless your majesty, God bless Daqin. "Sima Yi said, "Congratulations, your majesty!"


    Zhang Song said, "Congratulations, your majesty!"


    Whether Sima Yi, Zhang song or Jia Xu, they all know that under the current circumstances, it is easy to win the more than 60000 Jin troops.


    Zhang xiudao: "Wang Yue!"


    "I''m in a humble position!"


    Wang Yue bowed himself.


    With a solemn look on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "you should arrange someone to send a letter to Su Hong. As soon as he arrived in zhuxu County, he took the troops of Jin state to retreat and went to Jizhou from the position of daxikou on the border of Beihai state. Our army will ambush at daxikou to win 60000 Jin troops. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded and then went to make arrangements.


    Daxikou is on the northwest border of Beihai state from zhuxu county to the north. After crossing daxikou, you can go up again along Pingyuan County, finally enter Jizhou, and then return to Yecheng.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is preparing to ambush under the cloth of daxikou.


    After everything had been done, Zhang Xiu said: "now with Su Hong''s cooperation, it''s easier to win the war. But then we attacked Wei. However, after the defeat of Jushi and 60000 Jin troops, they had the conditions to attack Jin at the same time. I''m going to send an order to Chen Dao to make him prepare to attack the state of Jin. Together with Gao Lan and pound, he will attack the state of Jin


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is very worried. It''s no problem. However, they were reminded by sun Youlan and Chen Gaozan. If Gongsun Zan intervened, the situation would be different. "


    Zhang Song said: "I also agree to send troops!"


    Sima Yi said: "the unification of the world is close at hand."


    At this moment, Sima Yi''s heart is also incomparable expectation. He has been following Zhang Xiu for some years. Although this is not a long time, in fact, it is really soul stirring and very emotional.


    After a while, Wang Yue entered.


    Zhang Xiu sends an order to Wang Yue again, asking Wang Yue to arrange someone to send a message to Chen Dao, making Chen Dao ready to attack.


    When everything was ready, Zhang Xiu waited quietly.


    Now what Zhang Xiu wants to do is wait for Su Hong to arrive. As long as Su Hong arrived, the opportunity to destroy the Wei and Jin allied forces would be mature. With the passage of time, in late October, Su Hong had come from Yecheng and entered zhuxu county. He had gone to the direction of the Wei and Jin allied forces in zhuxu county.


    Before entering Beihai state, Su Hong got a reply from the royal guards. Zhang Xiu asked him to take his army northward from daxikou on the border of Beihai state for ambush.


    Su Hong has no problem.


    It was a great feat to surrender with 60000 troops of the state of Jin.


    This is his chance.

 Chapter 1017

    Su Hong is a person on the road, before receiving Zhang Xiu''s will, the speed of the road is not fast. But after receiving Zhang Xiu''s will, he was on his way as fast as he could. In a short time, he had arrived at the gate of the camp of the Wei and Jin allied forces.


    He came to the gate of the camp. After being informed, he came out in person.


    After all, Su Hong was the emperor''s envoy.


    Now it''s called.


    He also knew Su Hong, the swordsman beside yuan Shang. He took Su Hong into the camp and went back to the Chinese army. He asked, "why did Su Jianshi come to the camp?"


    Su Hong said: "two things!"


    Ju said, "please show me the sword master su."


    Su Hong said: "first of all, since you don''t listen to your Majesty''s orders, your majesty summoned you to remove you from the post of commander-in-chief. And I will detain you immediately. Today, Su Hong is in charge of the army of the state of Jin. "


    Ju Shu suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "is it possible that Su Jianshi will return to the state of Jin with his army. Today''s situation, once you retreat, I''m afraid you will be ambushed by Zhang Xiu. "


    Su Hong said in a deep voice: "you don''t want to withdraw. Why delay? Your majesty has been summoned before, but on the ground that you may be ambushed, you do not withdraw, so that the state of Jin is now in trouble. "


    Ju said: "it is impossible for Zhang Xiu to attack the state of Jin. His focus is on the state of Wei. How could Jin be in trouble if he didn''t attack Jin? Swordsman Su, you are alarmist. "


    Su Hong snorted and said directly, "that''s why the second thing happened. Pound and Gao Lan led the army to attack Bingzhou from Liangzhou. Gao Gan was killed and Bingzhou fell. Today''s state of Jin is in trouble. So in today''s situation, even if the withdrawal of the road, will be ambushed by Zhang Xiu, also must retreat. Climb, climb back. Why don''t you resist the edict? "


    Brush!


    I''ve changed a lot.


    How is that possible?


    Zhang Xiu actually arranged for Gao Lan to raid Bingzhou and kill Gao Gan.


    This was unexpected.


    It''s a trick!


    I suddenly understood again.


    Last time, Zhang Xiu took a large army to the border of dangyin county and put on a look of attacking Jin. In fact, Zhang Xiu turned around and quietly entered Dongjun. Finally, she attacked Runan of Chu state and swept Yuzhou and Yanzhou.


    Up to now, Zhang Xiu has mobilized most of her troops and gathered in zhuxu County, showing the appearance of attacking the state of Wei. But in fact, he attacked Bingzhou and killed Gao Gan.


    Today, the state of Jin is in danger.


    Jushi sighed in his heart. He was always on guard against thieves. After all, he didn''t guard against Zhang Xiu''s attack. Even, Zhang Xiu was still playing around, it is helpless.


    "Somebody


    Su Hong orders.


    As Su Hong ordered some soldiers to enter the camp, Su Hong said again, "two things: first, call all the soldiers in the army to gather in the school yard; second, immediately put them in custody and put them in the prison car."


    The soldier''s face changed slightly when he heard the words.


    Although he heard Su Hong''s order to enter, the soldiers were in a dilemma when it came to custody. After all, all the soldiers in the army obeyed Ju''s instructions. They were soldiers under Ju''s instructions.


    The soldier did not move. Instead, he looked at Ju Shou and waited for his orders.


    Su Hong said in a cold voice: "Jushu, do you want to disobey your Majesty''s orders?"


    "I dare not!"


    He shook his head and answered.


    Now, he can no longer resist the order. The reason why he resisted the imperial edict was that he thought Jin was not in danger. But now, when Bingzhou fell and Gao Gan was killed, he had to go back to help.


    Otherwise, the state of Jin will be in danger!


    He said, "carry out the order."


    When the soldiers heard the words, they had to go forward and detain him, and then they immediately went down to issue orders.


    Su Hong, who had been detained, went straight out of the barracks and went straight to the barracks. He came to the school yard. At the moment, 60000 soldiers of the state of Jin were in a neat gathering.


    The soldiers in the army were all surprised to see him in custody. No one thought that such a person should be detained, which is beyond everyone''s expectation.


    Facing 60000 elites, Su Hong had no fear at all. He took a deep breath and said in a loud voice, "I''m Su Hong, the official of the prince''s mansion. Today, on the order of his majesty, he took over 60000 elite of Jin State. First, he was removed from office and taken into custody. Second, the army of Jin State should withdraw from Wei state immediately. "


    "Why?"


    In the crowd, a small school roared.


    "Yes, why did you detain Mr. Ju and remove him from office?"


    "Your Majesty, this is nonsense!"


    "You can''t detain Mr. Ju."


    ¡­¡­


    In the barracks, many officers and men admired Ju Shou and were willing to follow him and listen to his leadership. Now, when I see Jushou being detained and bound, I look very angry.One by one.


    When Su Hong heard this, he looked at Ju Shi and said coldly, "Lord Ju is really good at training soldiers. Even his Majesty''s orders are not obeyed by the soldiers in the army. I''m afraid the soldiers you teach only know how to teach, but don''t know your majesty and the prince. "


    His face changed slightly.


    Su Hong''s words are heartbreaking.


    Su Hong''s eyes turned and looked at the soldiers who were talking about it. He didn''t speak for the time being, so he looked at it quietly. The soldiers below, from the beginning of the discussion, to the more and more loud, but gradually, the discussion gradually subsided.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Su Hong again.


    Su Hong then said, "Your Majesty has ordered Jushou to return to Yecheng to protect the safety of Yecheng. However, he was unwilling to retreat, so that the state of Jin lacked military protection, which led to the fall of Bingzhou and the killing of Gao Gan


    "Now the state of Jin is in danger."


    "And all of this is the result of his own will. He said that he was worried about being ambushed, but even if he was ambushed, so what? We are not afraid of Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "The reason for this is to help Cao ang and resist Zhang Xiu. But because of his selfishness, the state of Jin was in danger. He is a sinner of the state of Jin. "


    Su Hong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty didn''t kill him immediately. It''s the utmost justice."


    Boom!!


    Countless soldiers under the stage immediately began to talk.


    One by one, the soldiers of the state of Jin looked worried. No one thought that during their stay in zhuxu County, so great changes had taken place in the state of Jin.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    Without exception, the anger of the soldiers who had been detained completely dissipated. On the contrary, the soldiers were worried about the state of Jin.


    They are not worried about Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang in the state of Jin, but about their families and their homes.


    That''s the soldier''s worry.


    Su Hong immediately ordered: "bring the prison wagon!"


    With Su Hong''s order, some soldiers moved quickly. At this time, no soldiers dared to disobey Su Hong''s order. Not only because Su Hong came on behalf of the prince, but also because he took over the army.


    In a moment, the van was delivered.


    As soon as Su Hongda brushed his sleeve, he saw the soldiers come forward and directly put him into the prison car. Su Hong once again ordered his soldiers to take their armor, weapons and grain, and then ordered them to set out.


    Just when Su Hong''s soldiers had begun to go out, Cao ang, Guo Jia and others came. Cao ang looked worried and asked, "Duke Ju, do you need my help?"


    There was a chill in his face.


    Because Ju Shu has been detained in the prison car, in Cao Ang''s view, this is the result of disobeying Yuan Shao''s order. The reason why he asked if he needed help was that his words implied whether he needed help or not.

 Chapter 1018

    Now people in the prison car, face solemn, but that pair of eyes, but with helplessness and despair. Up to now, he is not optimistic about the state of Jin and thinks that the state of Jin can''t carry Zhang Xiu''s attack.


    Hearing Cao Ang''s words, Jushou shook his head and said, "the king of Wei is kind. Jushou is very kind. Now, the state of Jin has been attacked by Zhang Xiu, and Bingzhou has fallen, and Gao GaN has been killed. I am guilty of Jin, and I have to go back to Jin. "


    Brush!


    After hearing this, Cao Ang''s face changed slightly. For Wei, Jin was an ally. Today, Bingzhou has fallen, and even Yuan Shao''s appointed senior herdsman has died. This is what worries Cao ang.


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia and saw what Guo Jia meant.


    He was a little upset at the moment.


    Guo Jia answered, he even said: "Duke Ju, how can Bingzhou be suddenly attacked?"


    Ju said: "although Zhang Xiu is stationed in zhuxu County, he cheated everyone this time. Zhang Xiu secretly asked Gao Lan and pound to dispatch troops to Bingzhou, so that Bingzhou fell


    Guo jialue thought about it and said directly, "now Jin is in danger. We need Wei to send troops into Jin to help Jin resist Zhang Xiu''s attack."


    Cao Ang''s brows rose.


    He did not expect that Guo Jiahui would raise such a question.


    In fact, at the moment, Su Hong''s heart is also raised, because he has received Zhang Xiu''s arrangement to go northward from daxikou on the border of Beihai state. If it is only the 60000 troops of Jin, then this battle will be extremely easy. Even with his command, the Jin army would surrender.


    Once the army of Wei participated, the situation was different.


    However, Su Hong is a man of courage and insight. Although he has some worries in his heart, in fact, he doesn''t show anything wrong for the time being, and doesn''t interrupt. He just looks at it quietly, because he wants to see how the teacher will answer.


    Ju Shou shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiu''s strength now is divided into two lines, which is enough to fight on two lines. Although the king of Wei wanted to help the state of Jin, there is a lot of internal strife in the state of Jin today. I''m afraid it''s useless for the king of Wei to go. And once the king of Wei withdrew, I''m afraid that the state of Wei would also be in trouble. Therefore, I appreciate the kindness of the king of Wei. "


    Guo Jia said: "since Duke Ju has decided, then the state of Wei will bid farewell to him here. I hope that after returning to Yecheng, Jugong will be safe and sound. This time, thanks to Duke Ju. "


    Ju said: "Guo Junshi praised me falsely. I''m also for the state of Jin!"


    Su Hong stood aside, his heart down again.


    He was at ease again.


    Su Hong no longer delays time, urges a way: "Ju adult, time is pressing, what else do you have to say?"


    "No!"


    He shook his head and answered.


    "Let''s go!"


    Su Hong once again ordered, with his command, detaining the soldiers, waving the whip again. As the horses moved, the cart moved slowly forward again, and Su Hong also drove the horse forward.


    More than 60000 troops of the state of Jin left in a mighty way. But this huge military camp was empty, with more than half of the people missing. Cao Ang''s face was full of worry.


    Now, it''s coming.


    The situation is not good!


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Mr. Guo, we have only 90000 people in our hands now. With our troops, I''m afraid we can''t withstand the fierce attack of Zhang Xiu''s army. After all, Zhang Xiu''s strength is far beyond ours. Especially now that the army of Jin has left, what should we do next? "


    Guo Jia zhengse said: "I think that now the state of Jin has withdrawn, and because of the attack on the state of Jin, Zhang Xiu is very likely to destroy this army. So I think Zhang Xiu will send troops to ambush. This time, after dark, we quietly followed. Once the Jin army was ambushed, we immediately killed to defeat the Qin army. At least, it is to weaken Zhang Xiu''s army and help to increase our strength. "


    Cao ang thought for a while and said, "Sir, if you say we send troops, will it be in Zhang Xiu''s calculation?"


    Guo Jiawen was stunned.


    I didn''t expect that Cao ang would say such a thing.


    Guo Jia chuckled twice, then continued: "Your Majesty, no matter what, we must have enough self-confidence. If even his own troops are timid, worried about this and that, then in the end, he is afraid of Zhang Xiu, instead of sending troops. This time we sent troops to weaken Zhang Xiu, so we only sent a small number of troops to the north, not all of them. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said: "moreover, even if Zhang Xiu wanted to ambush, she was in Beihai, so she was close to zhuxu County, so we could help at any time. What''s more, we are behind the scenes. We are not afraid of Zhang Xiu. "


    Cao ang solemnly said, "my husband''s words, like morning bell and evening drum, make me suddenly open."


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, I praise you."


    Cao ang said solemnly, "since that''s the case, let''s make arrangements. This time, let general Cao Ren lead the army, let him send tiger and leopard to ride, tiger and leopard ride to and fro freely, even if not enemy, also can quickly withdraw"Here it is


    Guo Jia should go to arrange it immediately.


    On the other side, Su Hong, with a large army, went all the way to the north of Beihai state.


    Although Ju Shu was in the prison car, he was also sitting in it. He looked at Su Hong, who was riding beside him, and asked, "dare to ask Su Jianshi. I don''t know if the judge has ever started to deal with the government now?"


    "No!"


    Su Hong answered directly.


    "Then, as in today''s world, who is dealing with government affairs?" he said


    With a smile on his face, Su Hong said, "besides the prince, who else? Now everything in the court is under the control of the prince. In the state of Jin, who doesn''t know that his majesty ignores the government, it is the prince who deals with the government affairs. "


    "Heaven is dead, Jin!"


    When he heard it, he sighed.


    At this time, Yuan Shao did not deal with the government affairs, but still handed over the government affairs of the central court to Yuan Shang. Especially in his view, Yuan Shang was a dandy with no real talent.


    If yuan Shang deals with government affairs, the state of Jin will be defeated.


    After thinking about it, he said again, "now that Bingzhou has fallen and Gaolan and pound are going to Jizhou, what is the response of the central government and who has been sent to resist?"


    Su Hong thought about it and said, "it''s not impressive. At least before I left Yecheng, for the time being, no one led the soldiers to resist."


    She had a twitch in her cheek.


    The more he listened, the more he was lost. Because the great Jin was the most powerful country in the past, but it was a pity that the great Jin had been reduced to such a state.


    He said, "master Su, please be careful. Because we are now withdrawing from Beihai, Zhang Xiu must have got the news. With Zhang Xiu''s temperament, he can''t let it go. Now our military is unstable. If we are ambushed, I''m afraid the 60000 troops will be completely destroyed. "


    Su Hong wanted to laugh.


    What he needs to see is that he wants to be surrounded, that is, he wants the 60000 Jin troops to be handed over to Zhang Xiu intact, so that he can make great contributions.


    Su Hong said, "don''t worry, Mr. Ju. I''ll think about it myself. Now you just need to stay in the prison car, the rest of the things, don''t need you to worry about. I will manage everything. "


    After that, Su Hong stopped talking to her.


    Because in today''s situation, in case the dialogue with Ju Shi exposes the details, so that something goes wrong, that''s what Su Hong doesn''t want to see.


    Therefore, Su Hong simply ignored her.


    The army all the way north, from zhuxu County North, walked about two days, is close to the location of daxikou.


    Approaching tahikou, Su Hong got excited.


    Here''s the chance!


    He is about to hand over the 60000 Jin soldiers to Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1019

    Daxikou, located on the border of Beihai state.


    The roads here are wide and there are few mountains, but some hillside shrubs are everywhere. On some low hillsides, there are many shrubs. Now the weather is getting colder and the leaves are withered and yellow. At a glance, the whole world is shrouded in a bleak feeling.


    On a hillside, in a dense forest.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu ambushed here. This time, Zhang Xiu brought 60000 elite soldiers to ambush. There are Huang Zhong''s flying bear army and Gan Ning''s fierce tiger army.


    Today, there are bushes all around the official road, and his soldiers are dense, gathering around, completely surrounding the official road.


    Zhang Xiu hid in the Bush and waited quietly.


    Time goes by.


    As time goes by, the sun rises. The autumn sun on the body, has lost the hot summer, and even this has been approaching the end of autumn, the weather is getting cold, so the sun, on the contrary, is warm, particularly comfortable.


    Towards noon, a rustling sound of footsteps came. A soldier quickly came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, the army of Jin has come. It''s less than five miles away from us."


    "I''m ready to send orders."


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    Soldiers to summon, all fierce tiger army and flying bear army''s chief general, all vigilant.


    Huang Zhong followed Zhang Xiu. He looked solemn and said, "Your Majesty, let''s ambush the soldiers of Jin now. With Su Hong in, he must have directly ordered surrender. But what if there are Cao''s soldiers in the rear


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you said that Su Hong would surrender directly. In the case of Su Hong''s order not to resist, even if there are Cao soldiers in the rear, we don''t have to worry. If Cao Jun comes, it will be the first battle. "


    "Your Majesty is wise," said Huang Zhong


    The party waited quietly.


    As time went by, the 60000 elite of Jin led by Su Hong had entered the position of daxikou. Su Hong knew about tahikou. As soon as he entered this area, he was already looking forward to it. Because here is the time for him to lead his troops to surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    He was still in the prison car. He was in despair and even more decadent.


    Now the situation in the state of Jin, he is unable to return.


    He had no way to change.


    So along the way, most of the time, they stopped talking and seemed very silent.


    Su Hong led the army to continue to move forward. When he arrived at the center of daxikou, suddenly, a horn sounded around him. The fierce and forceful sound of the horn, resounding around, soared into the sky, and spread into the ears of every soldier of the state of Jin.


    The next moment, around 60000 Jin troops, countless Qin soldiers rushed out.


    More than 60000 imperial soldiers were surrounded.


    "Qin army, we are surrounded by Qin army."


    Some soldiers in the army screamed.


    "Here comes the Qin army!"


    "We''re surrounded!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers were talking one after another, but when they looked around, they were surprised to see that the soldiers of Qin army were surrounded, blocking their way, blocking their retreat, and they could not escape at all.


    When he saw this scene, he sighed in his heart.


    It''s over!


    This cup of Zhang Xiu is ambush. Is there a way out?


    The 60000 troops of the state of Jin were destroyed. Originally, Ju Shu had mentioned the possibility of being ambushed. Unfortunately, Su Hong had never paid any attention to him from the beginning to the end, and now he was ambushed. Under such a premise, suddenly ambushed, there is no room for relief.


    Will cao''ang have an army following him?


    In his heart, Ju Shu suddenly thought of Cao ang. If Cao Ang''s army followed him, he might have a chance to escape this time. If Cao ang didn''t follow him, he might not be able to withstand the attack even if it was a deadly battle.


    Su Hong had been looking forward to this scene for a long time. Now, after hearing it, he was excited. He didn''t have any worries, especially when he saw the panic of the soldiers.


    Soldiers will not fight if they panic.


    If all the soldiers look at death as if they are at home, then even if he orders to surrender, it will not help.


    So Su Hong is very relieved.


    Su Hong directly cried out: "surrender, we all lay down our arms and surrender."


    As soon as he heard Su Hong''s words, he got excited and exclaimed, "Su Hong, what are you doing? Now that the Qin army is coming, if you don''t resist, you order the soldiers to surrender. What''s your intention? "


    He was impatient.


    If Su Hong orders a fight to the death and all the soldiers of Jin State fight against Zhang Xiu''s Qin army, even if they are defeated, they can delay half an hour, or about two quarters of an hour, or even a quarter of an hour. If Cao Ang''s army comes after them, they will still have a chance of survival.If we surrender now, no matter how warm-hearted Cao ang is and how eager he is to help them, it will not help, so he looks like a murderer.


    But Su Hong didn''t take charge of it. He ordered again: "we are surrounded. The Qin army is fierce. Don''t be a fearless resistance. Surrender, we all surrender. "


    This word falls in the ear of Ju Shi, Ju Shi is more surprised.


    How do you feel? Su Hong seems to be Zhang Xiu''s person. He is totally helping Zhang Xiu speak.


    But for the soldiers of Jin, Su Hong''s words seemed to be the sound of nature. Because the whole army of Jin, even though these 60000 people were elite, actually, they heard that the top cadres had been killed and Bingzhou had fallen. In addition, the state of Jin had been defeated several times and lost to the Qin army every time, so they had no will to fight against the army of the Qin Dynasty.


    As soon as Su Hong ordered to surrender, everyone was counselled.


    "Bang Dang! Bang


    A sword. It''s thrown on the ground.


    One by one, the soldiers of the state of Jin, no longer resisting, knelt down on the ground and surrendered, looking like they were being slaughtered. Such a direct surrender took place on the 60000 troops of the state of Jin. For a moment, the scene was spectacular.


    There are no dead men in the whole 60000 Jin army.


    All surrender.


    When Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to arrive, the soldiers of the state of Jin had knelt on the ground, and all of them had thrown away their weapons. Zhang Xiu saw this scene, the corners of her mouth raised a bright smile.


    It''s done!


    This battle was won again.


    With a wave of Zhang Xiu''s sleeve, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong quickly dispatched the soldiers, collected all the weapons of the soldiers of the state of Jin, and then detained them.


    When Gan Ning and Huang Zhong are busy detaining the soldiers, Zhang Xiu takes Su Hong. Su Hong, in particular, bows slightly and stands beside Zhang Xiu. She looks familiar to both sides, which makes Ju Shou stare.


    He was shocked and said, "Su Hong, are you Zhang Xiu?"


    Su Hong raised a smile at the corner of his mouth. His eyes were sharp and he said, "from the beginning, I was a member of Daqin. I, Su Hong, came from the royal guards of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu took the words and said, "Mr. Ju, how can you see that Su Hong is my man? Some accidents?"


    "You, you..."


    I was stunned.


    He never thought that such a thing would happen. Tang Tang Su Hong was the swordsman and confidant of the crown prince yuan Shang. But I didn''t expect that Su Hong should be Zhang Xiu''s person. All this was unexpected.


    Jushi sighed dejectedly and said: "Zhang Xiu, your calculation is really all pervasive and deep. I didn''t expect that you had already calculated to this point. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Mr. Ju has been praised falsely. Now you are my prisoner. Is Mr. Ju willing to submit to me?"


    "No


    He shook his head and answered.


    He seemed very firm and said, "I believe that life is a person of Jin, and death is a ghost of Jin. No matter how, born as a minister of the state of Jin, he should be loyal to the state of Jin. "

 Chapter 1020

    Zhang Xiu is very appreciative of her works.


    This person is not only capable, but also tactful, lacking Tian Feng''s hardness, but also not lacking Tian Feng''s wisdom, not to mention Tian Feng''s bottom line.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Ju, don''t you know what kind of person Yuan Shao is? They are headstrong, greedy, addicted to wine and sex, and ignore government affairs. Is such a person worthy of your loyalty? "


    Ju said: "I am loyal not only to Yuan Shao, but also to the state of Jin. The great Jin is here, the great Jin is there. In the absence of Dajin, he died. Now, I am willing to die first. "


    "You..."


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    He didn''t expect that he was so determined, even harder than Tian Feng.


    In the past, after Tian Feng was taken by Zhang Xiu, he eventually turned to Zhang Xiu and worked for her. But now, when it comes to Jushou, he would rather die than surrender, which makes Zhang Xiu quite helpless.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Ju, you only think about your reputation and yourself. Don''t you think about the huge Ju family and the whole clan?"


    "I''m there, or I''m not," he said, "the family is there. When I die, your majesty will be kind to my family. When I die, Emperor Qin is broad-minded and will not embarrass my family. So I''m willing to die. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how do you know that I will be kind to the Ju family."


    Ju said: "the Emperor Qin is not a person who embarrasses women and children, so I believe in him."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "I''m going to embarrass your Ju family."


    But he looked like a pair of hob meat and said, "if that''s true, there''s no way. In a word, I can only manage the things in front of me, but I can''t manage the things behind me. I would rather die than be a second minister. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    "What does the emperor of Qin laugh at?" he said


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "if you don''t want to be a second minister or betray Dajin, I want you to submit to Daqin. You don''t care about the Ju family. I will let you know that the Ju family will be destroyed because of you. It''s all your fault. "


    Zhang Xiu is also a temperamental person.


    The more he was unwilling to surrender, the more he wanted to surrender.


    What''s more, he has great talent.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "this man, it''s easy to die. But it''s not easy to survive. Mr. Ju, you can see that the 60000 Jin troops were ambushed, and then the news that they were all subordinated to me was sent back to Yecheng. Yuan Shao would certainly vent all his anger on the Ju family. You said, "what will Yuan Shao do with the Ju family?"


    Brush!


    His face changed slightly.


    When he looked at Zhang Xiu, he gritted his teeth and said, "Emperor Qin, give me a good time."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are happy, but I am not. If you make me unhappy, then I can only make you unhappy. Your only choice is to submit to me. "


    "No!"


    He still shakes his head.


    Zhang Xiu mouth with a smile, he is now in the mood to fight with Juzhi. He didn''t believe it. It was just a matter of time, and he could find out the palm of his hand.


    Zhang Xiu said: "according to me, with Yuan Shao''s temperament, he must have ordered the arrest of all the people in the Ju family, and he would certainly be ready to kill all the people in the Ju family. Then, I will arrange for the royal guards in Yecheng to deliver a message. As long as Yuan Shao dares to kill anyone from the Ju family, then I will attack Yecheng immediately. "


    "In addition, I will arrange for a message to be sent that I have been subordinated. Just imagine what kind of attitude Yuan Shao has towards you? "


    "You are the second minister who has betrayed. You not only refused to return to Yecheng, but also caused the fall of Bingzhou, and then caused the fall of 60000 troops of Jin. You are the sinner of Dajin and the one Yuan Shao would like to kill. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "either Yuan Shao or yuan Shang will hate you."


    "You, you..."


    It''s really Zhang Xiu''s words that make her feel numb. Through the operation of Zhang Xiu, in Yuan Shao''s eyes, he was the person who brought disaster to the country and the people, and the culprit who led the state of Jin into danger.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "next, I will order Yuan Shao to hand over the people of Ju family. If Yuan Shao doesn''t let people go, I will threaten to kill Yecheng immediately. In the end, Yuan Shao will release the people of the Ju family. "


    She had a twitch in her cheek.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Ju, are you willing to submit to me?"


    "I, I..."


    Jushou said two words one after another. At this time, Jushou was hesitant. If he does not submit to Zhang Xiu, the consequences will be very serious, even the whole Ju family will be implicated.


    Ju Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Emperor Qin, when the two armies are fighting, they will not hurt the innocent, their wives, children and family members. Now, it''s too cruel of you to do so. ""I don''t think it''s cruel!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if you don''t surrender, who is to blame? If you surrender, I will immediately arrange for the royal guards to bring all the people of your Ju family to Chang''an. If you don''t surrender, the Ju family will be in danger. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "in the final analysis, the reason for all this is not me, but you. For that little bit of self-esteem, for that poor loyalty, you are not willing to submit to me. Therefore, it leads to a possible scene. So you are responsible for everything. Why do you blame me? "


    "Alas..."


    He sighed.


    He also knew that Zhang Xiu did it for him and to surrender him. If Zhang Xiu didn''t want to surrender him, she wouldn''t have made such a great effort.


    "I am willing to come down," he said


    Here, I can''t hold on any longer and choose to be obedient.


    Because if he doesn''t surrender, the whole Ju family will be in turmoil. Such a result was not what Jushou wanted to see, so Jushou chose to surrender.


    In fact, he also knew that Zhang Xiu was the real master of the Ming Dynasty, and that Zhang Xiu''s dominance of the world was irresistible. No matter Cao Cao or sun CE, they all died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Even the state of Wei was crippled and the state of Jin was attacked. Under such a premise, who can resist Zhang Xiu?


    It is the wisest decision to submit to Zhang Xiu.


    It''s just that Ju Shou is always loyal to the king. He works for the state of Jin, so he is willing to fight to the end for the state of Jin and die for it. But the problem is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t play according to common sense.


    Zhang Xiu''s words left her helpless.


    Zhang Xiu also showed a smile on her face. As soon as she waved her hand, some soldiers took him out of the prison car. Then she opened the rope on him and said with a smile: "I have long respected Mr. Ju. The state of Jin would have collapsed without you. Now because you are here, the state of Jin can be stable. You are a worthy talent. "


    Ju said: "Your Majesty''s praise is wrong. Ju was just a mender. He didn''t do anything well in the end."


    Zhang Xiu praised it, but she didn''t say much.


    By this time, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning had already detained all the soldiers who had surrendered. With Zhang Xiu''s command, the army was escorting all the surrender soldiers of Jin, and went to the direction of the army.

 Chapter 1021

    In the rear of daxikou, about ten miles away, there was a tiger and leopard riding team led by Cao Ren. There are about 6000 riders in this group. They are the most elite cavalry and can come and go freely.


    Six thousand tiger and leopard riding is for surprise attack and harassment, which can weaken the power of besieging Jin army. In this way, even if the Jin army is in a weak position, the situation can be reversed if it is restrained by tigers and leopards.


    Cao Ren has been hanging in the back, but not in a hurry.


    After all, the tigers and leopards under his command are fast enough to arrive in an instant, and can rush to the Jin army in the shortest time. Cao Ren, in particular, has always been very patient. He followed all the time, not in a hurry.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, a man and a rider came running in the distance. The sentry drove the horse to run, just like chasing the wind. Everyone retreated along the way, leaving a way for the sentry.


    After a while, the sentry came to him and said, "general, when the Jin army arrived at daxikou, it was ambushed. Around daxikou, there are a lot of Qin soldiers. "


    The sentry had been hiding far behind. As soon as he saw the soldiers of Qin army under Zhang Xiu killed, he turned around and went back to report the news. He never saw the back, so the sentry didn''t know what happened in the future.


    When Cao Ren heard the news, he gave an order: "let''s go!"


    Six thousand tigers and leopards ride on the road.


    "Boom!"


    The hoofs of the horses trampled on the ground, making a deafening sound. The tens of thousands of horses'' hooves were trampled down, and even the ground was shaken. More smoke and dust flew up to block the sky.


    Its momentum is extremely fierce.


    The attack can be stopped by Reebok.


    This is tiger riding leopard.


    In Cao Ren''s mind, he expected the soldiers of Jin to fight the soldiers of Qin, at least to weaken Zhang Xiu''s forces. Even if not, but at least to weaken the strength of Zhang Xiu. As soon as the tiger and leopard riders under his command arrive, they can form the final crushing posture and help the Jin army defeat Zhang Xiu''s army.


    In this way, the war was won.


    As long as the Qin army, which ambushed the Jin army, is destroyed, it will also weaken the strength of the Qin army. Under such a premise, Cao ang and Zhang Xiu will fight next. Even if the troops are at a disadvantage, the gap between the two sides will narrow.


    So Cao Ren is looking forward to it.


    He hopes to win.


    Six thousand tiger and leopard riders all spread out, and they were very fast and mighty. However, Cao Ren''s army ran forward for less than half a quarter of an hour. Suddenly, there was another sentinel flying back.


    "Newspaper!"


    The sentry called eagerly.


    Just his voice, instantly submerged in the sound of the horse''s hooves.


    Cao Ren also saw the front of the withdrawal of the sentry, he slowed down slightly, not long, sentry came to Cao Ren''s side. The sentinel was a little short of breath, and he quickly reported: "general, it''s not good. All the troops of the state of Jin have been demoted. "


    Brush!


    Cao Ren''s eyes widened and his face changed greatly.


    Surrender all?


    How is this possible? We have to know that there are 60000 elite troops in the Jin army, and their strength and combat effectiveness are not weak. However, in the face of the ambush of the Qin soldiers, they actually surrendered without fighting. This is just a fantasy for Cao Ren. It''s totally unthinkable.


    The sentry continued: "in fact, shortly after the previous news came back, the Jin army surrendered. The villain thought that if the Jin army had any stratagem, it would surrender directly? But in the end, the Jin army really surrendered. Without fighting, they all surrendered. "


    Cao Ren heard a burst of fire.


    This damned Jin army, this damned Su Hong. If it wasn''t for Su Hong who took over the army of the state of Jin, or if it wasn''t for Su Hong who imprisoned him, the army of the state of Jin would not have surrendered directly.


    Cao Ren admires Ju.


    Ju Shu dare to disobey Yuan Shao''s orders, even in the face of Zhang Xiu also dare to fight, so he is not afraid.


    But he was imprisoned.


    "Alas..."


    Cao Ren couldn''t help sighing and ordered to stop. As the flag swayed, six thousand tigers and leopards saw it, and all the tigers and leopards in the army stopped.


    The horses neighed, and the tigers and leopards stopped again on the battlefield, leaving only the neighing of the horses.


    "Withdraw


    Cao Ren directly ordered.


    With Cao Ren''s order, six thousand tigers and leopards are reluctant to retreat.


    The tiger and leopard rode back and soon returned to the army. When Cao Ren saw Cao ang, he quickly told him about the ambush. With a helpless look, he said, "now this battle is really frustrating. Su Hong, with the army of Jin, surrendered. Even the weapons didn''t come out, so they all surrendered. Su Hong, what a fool


    As soon as Cao ang heard it, he slapped it on the desk in front of him.


    He was filled with anger when he heard it.


    Damn Su Hong!Because of Su Hong''s surrender, after 60000 Jin troops were reduced to Zhang Xiu''s strength, Jin''s strength was weakened again. On the other hand, Qin''s strength was further strengthened. The most important thing is that after the decline of Jin, the state of Wei was also unable to stand alone, unable to compete with Zhang Xiu alone.


    Cao ang didn''t want to pay attention to Yuan Shao''s life or death, but the problem is that the state of Jin was destroyed, and the state of Wei couldn''t last long.


    This is Cao Ang''s concern.


    Cao ang said in a deep voice: "at that time, did you ever escape?"


    Cao Ren shook his head and said, "Su Hong led 60000 troops of the state of Jin. Without resistance, he surrendered directly. How can he escape? Especially at that time, he was imprisoned in a prison car. He wanted to escape, which was impossible. So I''m sure that today, she must be a prisoner of Zhang Xiu. "


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    Cao ang was even more sorry and angry. He was almost angry. Although the original situation is not very good, but good or bad, still can resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, but now, the situation is completely changed.


    "Come and call Guo Jia and Xun you."


    Cao ang immediately gave orders to go down.


    Cao Ang''s heart, however, was still oppressed, and he felt that it was not worth it. He had already vaguely reminded us whether we need his help and whether we need him to send troops to detain the Jin army.


    But he refused.


    So much so that now, everything completely collapses.


    Not long after, Guo Jia and Xun you entered. When they saw Cao ang, they saw Cao ang looking angry. They also saw Cao Ren. Guo Jia took the lead in saying, "Your Highness, did the army of Jin surrender?"


    "Yes


    Cao ang nodded and answered.


    Immediately, Cao ang continued: "no one thought that Su Hong had fallen without fighting. So that the tiger and leopard riders we sent out did not enter the battlefield at all and came back. This time, Su Hong really broke the news. Mr. Guo, now that the army of the state of Jin has been completely captured, the state of Jin must be in danger. Similarly, we Wei alone face the army of Zhang Xiu. Even ourselves are quite dangerous. Mr. Guo thinks, "what should we do now?"


    Guo Jia frowned, his face was also very solemn, solemnly said: "Your Highness, now facing the attack of Zhang Xiu. We are at a disadvantage. We have no choice but to fight to the death. If it''s opportunistic, it''s good. "


    "But the problem is, now Zhang Xiu''s army is coming, we don''t even have the chance to take advantage of it. Therefore, it can only be positive resistance. If this station in zhuxu county can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s attack, then the next step is that we will be defeated. "


    Guo Jia''s face was tired.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s attack, the state of Wei tried hard to resist.


    Cao ang nodded with a helpless look.


    Guo Jiayan is right.


    Xun you suddenly said, "Your Highness, there is a word in your humble position. I don''t know whether to say it or not."


    With a smile on his face, Cao ang said, "Mr. Xun has something to say. I believe Mr. Xun just as my father believed Mr. Xun. So I don''t think Mr. Xun will harm the king. "


    Xun you said: "in battle, we always consider defeat before victory. Especially in today''s situation, the situation is very unfavorable. That''s why he thinks that his highness should arrange his retreat while fighting to the death, so that if he really can''t bear Zhang Xiu''s attack, there will be room for retreat. Otherwise, the sun family will be a lesson to be learned. "


    With these words, Cao Ang''s face changed slightly.


    Xun you''s words can be said to be bold, but if you think about it carefully, it is also a mature plan, because in today''s situation, the state of Wei is already in turmoil, so it is extremely necessary to consider the future.

 Chapter 1022

    Guo Jia also took a look at Xun you. He was quite surprised. He didn''t expect that Xun you would take the initiative to mention the matter of preparing for the future. This is something he thought about but didn''t say.


    In Guo Jia''s opinion, Cao ang is a mild tempered man with a bright future. However, compared with Cao Cao, Cao ang is still much weaker, so even if Guo Jia gave some advice, in fact, he did not reveal everything.


    It''s time to say, he said.


    He didn''t say what he shouldn''t have said.


    Guo Jia''s eyes turned to Cao ang. His eyes fell on Cao ang to see what he was going to say.


    Cao ang didn''t answer immediately. He looked at his nose, his eyes, and his heart. After a long time, Cao ang came back and said, "Mr. Xun, if we want to consider the way back, how can we arrange the way back?"


    Xunyou said, "all the places in the south of the Yangtze River have been in the hands of Zhang Xiu. It must be inappropriate to go to Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. The only way is to go out to sea, to the direction of Lelang county. "


    Lelang County, located in Liaodong County, is actually the region of later countries such as Silla and Baiji.


    This is the border with Koguryo.


    After hearing this, Cao ang began to think, because Lelang county is already a remote place. This area, he is certainly not willing to go, but as Xun you said, if Zhang Xiu can not carry the attack, then we must be prepared to retreat.


    This is necessary.


    Cao ang asked, "Mr. Xun, how do you think it should be arranged and who should go there?"


    Xun you said with a straight face: "to report back to your highness, the so-called arrangement of retreat, on the one hand, is to leave some people behind. So your highness just needs to select the children of Cao family and dispatch some soldiers to Lelang county. As for other arrangements, there is not much need. After all, Lelang County, even if it belongs to Liaodong, is in fact a mess. "


    Cao angyan said: "in that case, Mr. Xun immediately ordered PI Di to take Zhi Di and other family brothers, and then selected 3000 soldiers from Huang County to go to sea in a big ship to Lelang county."


    "Here it is


    Xun you immediately responded.


    In fact, the so-called "going out to sea" is also the inland sea. This is from crossing the Bohai Sea to entering Lelang county. There are caravans on this road, and it is not a difficult waterway.


    If you really go out to sea and enter the vast sea, you are looking for death.


    Cao ang continued: "I don''t think it will take long for Zhang Xiu to attack. Cao Ren, commander in chief, prepare for the first World War. Especially the defensive equipment, all ready


    "Here it is


    Cao Ren should also go down.


    After Cao ang waved his hand, Xun you, Cao Ren and Guo Jia got up to leave and arranged for each other.


    Cao ang stayed alone in the camp, and his face was gradually decadent. Cao Ang''s heart was still determined when he led the troops. After all, there were 60000 elite of Jin State. Moreover, he was also a good planner who could cooperate with him to resist Zhang Xiu''s army.


    But now, the 60000 elite of Jin State have fallen, and his troops are less than 100000, but it is not easy to resist Zhang Xiu''s 100000 troops.


    "Father, if you were still there, what would you do under the current situation?"


    Cao ang murmured to himself.


    In the current situation, he was really worried. For a moment, he didn''t know what to do to keep the state of Wei. In fact, Xun you''s words made Cao Ang''s heart sink.


    The reason is very simple. Even a wise man like Xun you suggested that he arrange his way back. It is conceivable that the current situation is so serious that Cao ang felt tired.


    In front of Xun you, Guo Jia and others, he can''t show it. He can only calm himself as much as he can. But now, he can''t control it. His face is tired and helpless.


    More decadent.


    After a long silence, Cao ang regained his composure and began to be busy again, dealing with the affairs in his hands and arranging the defense of the camp.


    When Cao ang was busy, on the other side, the Qin army camp.


    Zhang Xiu escorted 60000 Jin troops to withdraw, and the troops were stationed.


    Today, it involves the arrangement of 60000 Jin troops. With Zhang Xiu''s financial resources and strength, it is no problem to supply more than 60000 people with food. Moreover, Jin''s rich financial resources are enough to supply such an army.


    It''s just that it''s getting colder in November.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t attack Cao ang immediately, because there was no joke about the 60000 troops of the state of Jin. He had assigned 60000 troops to the liehu army and the Feixiong army, so that they could digest and reorganize.


    During this period, Chen Dao and Gao Lan have already heard that the two sides have converged, and even Gao Lan and pound have entered Jizhou, seized some sites, and even settled down in Jizhou.


    But the cold weather made it difficult for the army to March. Therefore, Chen Dao and Gao Lan have not sent troops for the time being, and they have not attacked the state of Jin. They have to wait until the spring of next year to consider the matter of attack.Zhang Xiu agreed with this arrangement. Now, the key to achieving a stable and rapid victory is to seek a stable and rapid victory.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Similarly, Zhang Xiu did not attack and began to recuperate in zhuxu county.


    In early November, the news of Jushou''s capture in zhuxu County, Su Hong''s surrender, and the total surrender of 60000 Jin troops finally came back to Yecheng. In fact, roads are blocked everywhere, and Yuan Shao can''t get any news for a while.


    When Yuan Shang got the news, he scolded Su Hong for his incompetence and turned out to surrender.


    In his anger, Yuan Shang arranges for people to deal with Su Hong''s family members, and even to arrest Ju Shi''s family members. However, when the people he arranges go down, he finds that no matter Su Hong or Ju Shi, all the people of the two families have disappeared, and they are empty.


    It''s all gone.


    This situation made yuan Shang angry.


    Obviously, both Jushi and Suhong had surrendered to Zhang Xiu, so their families left Yecheng.


    Yuan Nai went to the Imperial City in a hurry. After entering the Imperial City, he went straight to the palace. After Yuan Shang entered, his servant put a charcoal basin to keep warm, and a stream of heat came out. The chill on Yuan Shang''s body faded slightly, but the chill in his heart could never be eliminated.


    Yuan Shang was worried.


    Soon, a sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, but Yuan Shao came in a hurry. Today, Yuan Shao is much older. After all, on the one hand, he is addicted to the pleasure of the harem; on the other hand, the situation is unfavorable, so that Yuan Shao is getting old quickly.


    When he saw yuan Shang, he said, "prince, what''s the matter?"


    After a pause, Yuan Shao said, "count the time. Su Hong, the swordsman of your prince''s mansion, went to dispatch troops with my will. It''s reasonable to say that he should bring the army back. How to now, there is no news. What''s the problem? "


    "Yes


    Yuan Shang said: "there is indeed an accident."

 Chapter 1023

    Yuan Shao''s heart, a click.


    A heart sank suddenly.


    Now Yuan Shao is quite sensitive, because the whole state of Jin is on the verge of crisis. The fall of Bingzhou, the killing of Gao Gan, and the appearance of Chen Dao in dangyin county that he wants to enter Yecheng make Yuan Shao worried. So when he saw yuan Shang, he was worried.


    I didn''t expect that when I asked, there was something wrong.


    "What''s the matter?" Yuan Shao asked


    Yuan Shang replied, "report back to your father, Su Hong and his army left zhuxu County, and on the way back to Jin State, they were ambushed by Zhang Xiu at daxikou, the border of Beihai state. Seeing that he was defeated, Su Hong finally chose to surrender. The 60000 elite of the state of Jin have been completely destroyed. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Yuan Shao was furious.


    Su Hong, a fool, ruined his 60000 talents.


    Yuan Shang zhengse said: "as soon as I heard the news, I immediately ordered the people below to arrest Su Hong and Ju Shu''s family members. Unexpectedly, their families had all disappeared out of thin air and disappeared completely."


    Yuan Shao''s chest heaved with anger.


    There is no peace of mind.


    What happened now made Yuan Shao''s anger even more difficult to contain. However, his body is not very good now, so when he was stimulated by the surrender of Su Hong and Ju Shu, his mood was even more difficult to maintain stability, his breath was short, his chest was even more ups and downs, and he was constantly panting.


    "Cough! Cough


    Yuan Shao still coughed.


    The voice of the cough affected Yuan Shao''s chest, and his cheeks were red.


    "Father, father, what''s the matter with you."


    Seeing this, Yuan Shang became eager.


    In the Taiping era, he was the crown prince of the Jin State. If Yuan Shao died earlier, he could inherit the throne and become the emperor of the Jin State. But now it is different. Today''s state of Jin is in turmoil. Yuan Shang asked himself whether he could stabilize the situation. He needed Yuan Shao to take charge of it.


    So yuan Shang called twice. Seeing that Yuan Shao''s condition was not right, he immediately called out: "imperial doctor, pass on imperial doctor!"


    After he gave orders, he came to Yuan Shao''s side and stroked his back for Yuan Shao, hoping to calm Yuan Shao''s breathing and let Yuan Shao change. But Yuan Shao''s cough has affected the internal organs. In addition, Yuan Shao''s body has long been empty and collapsed, so he coughed continuously, and Yuan Shao finally couldn''t help but feel his throat is sweet and a mouthful of blood is spitting out from his mouth.


    After vomiting blood, Yuan Shao''s breath was even withered. At this time, the imperial doctor came in and quickly felt Yuan Shao''s pulse. After a while, the imperial doctor said, "Your Majesty''s situation just now is that you are impatient. As long as you adjust it, it won''t hurt much."


    The imperial doctor found that Yuan Shao''s body was empty.


    But I dare not say.


    After all, it only needs to be recuperated, so the imperial doctor only talked about the situation just now.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and the imperial doctor stepped down.


    In the main hall, only two father and son, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang, were left. He looked at Yuan Shang and said in a deep voice, "prince, now Juzhi and Su Hong have surrendered to Zhang Xiu, and the 60000 troops of Jin have disappeared. In addition, Gao Lan''s traitor and pound have already led their troops to Jizhou. Chen Dao has also entered dangyin County, but they haven''t killed Yecheng yet. You said, "what should we do now?"


    After listening to Yuan Shao''s words, Yuan Shang did not answer immediately, but thought quickly in his heart.


    He was worried about the meaning of Yuan Shao''s statement.


    Therefore, there is no urgent answer.


    However, Yuan Shao could not wait. Seeing that yuan still did not speak, he said in a cold voice, "prince, is it such a small matter that you don''t even have your own idea? You are the prince of the state of Jin and the future emperor of Jin. If you don''t make up your mind about such a thing, what do I want you to do? "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shang was in a hurry and said, "father, in view of the current situation, my children''s ministers have three strategies as a way to deal with it."


    In fact, his three strategies were put forward by his staff. When Yuan Shang learned that pound and Gao Lan were coming, he was worried, so he asked his staff.


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "what are the three strategies?"


    Yuan Shang, with a solemn expression, slowly replied: "father, the strength between Jin and Qin is obviously that Qin is strong and Jin is weak, which is indisputable. Especially now Gaolan has entered from the west of Jizhou, approaching Yecheng. Chen Dao is at the border of Yecheng. He has surrounded Yecheng since he approached the southwest of Yecheng. "


    "For Yecheng, this is extremely dangerous."


    "It is also a great threat to the state of Jin."


    "Therefore, the best policy for children''s ministers is to move the capital of Jin to Zhongshan. We retreated to Zhongshan, chose a temporary capital, and then went to the state of Qin to fight again. "


    Yuan Shang made a wise appearance and said, "as long as there is a soldier in Jin, then Jin can fight to the end and fight for the last chance."


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao thought about it in his heart. He did not expect that yuan Shangneng could make such a proposal, and such a proposal is also a good choice.On the one hand, it preserved the state of Jin; on the other hand, it also had strategic depth and was able to continue to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    This is an excellent suggestion.


    However, Yuan Shao''s heart still felt that something was wrong, because after he lost his 60 thousand talents, Yuan Shao''s inner pillar was also destroyed. Although there are still fifty or sixty thousand troops in Yecheng. However, Yuan Shao thought that it was impossible to block Zhang Xiu''s attack with an army of 50000 to 60000. Therefore, Yuan Shao thought that although this proposal was good, it was still precarious and could not guarantee the security of Jin State.


    Yuan Shao asked, "what''s the best policy?"


    Yuan Shang zhengse said: "the best policy of my son''s ministers is still to retreat to Zhongshan state, but at the same time, I arranged envoys to go north to Youzhou to ask Gongsun Zan, the king of Yan, for help. After all, after the defeat of the state of Jin, Gongsun Zan''s state of Yan is hard to escape. "


    "No, absolutely not!"


    Yuan Shao didn''t even think about it and refused.


    He had a good face all his life. Once he had a fight with Gongsun Zan, and even nearly killed him. In Yuan Shao''s heart, he despised Gongsun Zan. Now, it is to ask him to ask Gongsun Zan for help. He is reluctant in his heart.


    This is tantamount to bowing to Gongsun Zan.


    Yuan shaogen didn''t consider this strategy and asked, "what''s your worst strategy?"


    Yuan Shangshen took a deep breath, summoned up courage, and said: "my son''s worst policy is that we still stay in Yecheng and do not leave the capital. However, it was arranged for the envoys to visit Zhang Xiu in zhuxu county. The state of Jin is willing to be a minister to Zhang Xiu, but retains the state of Jin. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed slightly.


    To surrender to Zhang Xiu is to admit his advice completely.


    In particular, in return for such a courtship, it was endless humiliation to the yuan family. But the advantage is that as long as Zhang Xiu agrees, the state of Jin will be able to fight and Jin will not fall into war. After all, Zhang Xiu is a loyal minister. As long as Zhang Xiu accepts it, it is impossible to attack Jin again.


    Yuan Shang zhengse said: "the children''s ministers have the courage to put forward three strategies and ask their father to surrender."


    "You are not guilty!"


    Yuan Shao shook his head and said, "this time, you did a very good job. What''s more, your suggestions are quite valuable. The best policy is not desirable, so what can be adopted is the best one and the worst one, but the best one is hard to resist Zhang Xiu. In Yecheng, Zhang Xiu can''t be stopped. When he retreats to Zhongshan, he can''t be stopped either. "


    Yuan Shang said, "what does Father Huang mean is to take a bad policy?"


    Yuan Shao said: "but to beg for mercy from Zhang Xiu means that our yuan family will be completely beaten in front of Zhang Xiu and become Zhang Xiu''s slaves."


    Yuan Shang said: "my father doesn''t have to think that way. We are now courtiers in order to preserve our strength. As long as we recover, as long as there is something wrong with Zhang Xiu, then we can seize the opportunity to attack Zhang Xiu at one stroke. The present compromise is for the future, we can win


    "Good, good!"


    Yuan Shao''s eyes were clear, and said, "you have a good point, shang''er. You immediately arrange someone as an envoy to meet Zhang Xiu in zhuxu County, and then discuss peace."


    "Here it is


    Yuan still had to order, so he turned to arrange.

 Chapter 1024

    After leaving the palace, Yuan Shang went straight back to the prince''s residence. It is necessary for a minister to have enough courage to think in his heart. If you don''t have enough ability and courage, I''m afraid that when you see Zhang Xiu, you will be scared by her.


    Yuan Shangsi wanted to go. Suddenly, he thought of a candidate.


    Match!


    His candidate is the judge!


    Moreover, yuan shangzi thought that it was a magic stroke to let Shen Pei act as a diplomatic envoy. So yuan Shang immediately gave an order to the soldiers to inform the judges to come to see him. Today''s judge and match is still thinking behind closed doors in his family. After all, he had concealed things before, so that he was punished by Yuan Shao.


    After seeing yuan Shang, he bowed and said, "I''m going to see the prince."


    Today''s matching is much thinner.


    During this period of time, he was also worried about the situation on the front line and the state of Jin, so his heart was so restless that he was so thin that he walked with wind.


    Yuan Shang''s face was full of smiles, and he said, "come on, give me a seat!"


    The servant brought the table, but the judge didn''t take the initiative to speak after sitting down. He knew that he would not go to the three treasures hall. If there was nothing special, Yuan Shang would not come to him.


    After all, he is a nuisance.


    Neither Yuan Shao nor yuan Shang liked his strong character. The judge did not speak, and Yuan Shang did not speak for the time being. For a moment, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.


    Seeing this, Yuan Shang laughed awkwardly.


    It''s really helpless!


    Yuan Shang is now in need of trial and match, so his attitude is particularly good, he took the initiative to say: "trial, now I''m looking for you, it''s the moment of life and death in our country, we need trial to come forward and stabilize the situation."


    The judge said, "please show it to your Highness the prince!"


    Yuan Shang sighed and said, "just today, the prince got news from zhuxu county. Su Hong went to order Jushou to withdraw. On the way to withdraw, the army was ambushed by the army of the state of Qin, and 60000 troops of the state of Jin were annihilated. Su Hong and Ju Shou have now surrendered to Zhang Xiu. "


    She was shocked by the result, but she did not expect that the whole army would be destroyed. She did not expect that Su Hong and Ju Shu had already surrendered to Zhang Xiu.


    He took charge of the government.


    He is also good at military affairs. He knows that rear interference is the most taboo in front-line operations. The withdrawal of yuan shaole''s order was originally calculated by Zhang Xiu. In this case, he would surely be ambushed.


    It''s just that the judges think that the whole army will not be wiped out, at least most of them will be withdrawn.


    But it''s all gone.


    It''s a little strange.


    The judge said: "Your Highness, can you give us a specific notice of the war situation? We should be able to predict why he didn''t prepare well in advance, and even the whole army was annihilated."


    Yuan Shang sighed: "all this is because of Su Hong. As soon as he got to the front line, he was detained. He didn''t know the art of war, so the war was defeated. "


    Hearing this, the judge sneered.


    What is the meaning of Su Hong detaining Ju Shi? Without Yuan Shao''s instruction and Yuan Shang''s arrangement, if only Su Hong had the courage to detain Ju Shi, it was clearly yuan Shang''s shirking responsibility.


    There is also much to worry about.


    Because it''s no use caring about it.


    At this time, the judge said: "the front line is like this, so his Highness the prince summoned the minister, but what''s the matter?"


    Yuan Shangdao said: "the reason why we ask the Duke of justice to come is that the current situation is unfavorable and our country is on the verge of life and death. The prince and his father decided to submit to Zhang Xiu for the time being, so as to preserve the state of Jin. "


    "After stabilizing the current situation, we will consider the way to deal with Zhang Xiu later. So now, his father appointed the Duke of justice as an envoy, and went to zhuxu county to negotiate with Zhang Xiu on behalf of his father. "


    "The state of Jin is willing to submit to and honor the great Qin."


    Yuan Shang zhengse said: "in the past, Gou Jian, king of Yue, was able to endure hardships. Today, I am also able to endure hardships in Jin Dynasty. As long as we get through the present predicament, we will win and turn the situation around in the future. "


    Brush!


    The judge heard that the color changed a lot.


    He was really shocked.


    I didn''t expect that the emperor of yuan Shaotang was the son of a nation. Now, in order to survive, he would like to become a minister to Zhang Xiu. You should know that Cao Cao committed suicide and would rather die than surrender to Zhang Xiu, but Yuan Shao was not. In order to survive, Yuan Shao would rather be a minister to Zhang Xiu than be trampled on by Zhang Xiu.


    Especially yuan Shang said so fresh and refined.


    What''s Gou Jian doing!


    What''s the big Jin!


    Can any cat and dog compare with Gou Jian? Although Gou Jian had all kinds of problems, he was also a hero of his generation. In the stage of revenge, he was able to use his talents and finally avenged himself.


    But what can Yuan Shao do?Yuan Shang saw that the judge had not yet answered. He was worried that the judge was not willing to go. So he stood up and went straight to the judge. He folded his hands and bowed to the judge, saying, "judge, the future of our great Jin State, will be entrusted to the judge. Please accept yuan Shang''s three respects."


    With that, Yuan Shang bowed to him one after another.


    After receiving a gift, the judge stood up and withdrew, bowed himself and said, "Your Highness, you can''t. As a minister of the state of Jin, I am willing to go through fire and water for the state of Jin. "


    After all, Shen Pei was a minister of Jin State.


    Yuan Shao has an arrangement, he can''t refuse, he can only go.


    Yuan Shang''s face also showed relief when he saw that the judge and the match should come down. As long as the judge and the match agreed, everything would be easy to say. If the judge refuses, Yuan Shang really can''t find a suitable candidate.


    Yuan Shang returned to his seat and said, "Duke of justice, Zhang Xiu has an absolute advantage now. He may put forward harsh conditions. However, as long as it is able to let Zhang Xiu strike, you can make a full decision. "


    "I understand


    The judge and match should go down immediately.


    However, his heart was a little sad. The weak country had no diplomacy. Now, as an envoy of Jin State, he went to meet Zhang Xiu and was bound to encounter all kinds of difficulties.


    As a matter of fact, if only as an emissary of a weak country, it would not be so. After all, a weak country, as long as the monarch and his ministers are of one mind, and the monarch and his ministers are wise, then even if the country is small and weak, it will be strong one day.


    But the problem is that in today''s great Jin Dynasty, the emperor Yuan Shao is dazzled with pleasure, and the prince yuan Shang is greedy and reckless. The whole great Jin Dynasty is in a mess.


    There is no sign of prosperity.


    So the heart is lost.


    At this time, Shen Pei was even envious of Tian Feng.


    Tian Feng early, has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu became the president of the inspector, a show of talent. On the contrary, his judges, Ju Shi, and even other Yuan Shao''s counselors were all in trouble.


    Yuan Shang asked, "Duke Shen, when will you leave?"


    Listening to Yuan Shang''s urging words, the judge said: "Your Highness, when you come home to clean up, you will leave immediately and go to zhuxu county. Now because of the cold weather, so Zhang Xiu temporary strike. While Zhang Xiu is still in zhuxu County, he arrives at his humble post earlier and tries to persuade her. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Yuan Shang nodded, with a look of approval and expectation, and said, "I''m looking forward to the good news of the trial."


    "I''m going to leave in a humble position!"


    The judge bowed and bowed again, then turned to withdraw.


    Yuan Shang looked at the back of the judge and his wife, with hope on his face. He hoped that the judge and his wife would succeed, because only if the judge and his wife were successful could the great Jin Dynasty continue.

 Chapter 1025

    In the cold winter, the training of soldiers in the army is still the same, but for soldiers in the army, they can''t practice all the time. In their spare time, the soldiers have nothing to do, so that there are some fights in the army.


    After all, life in the army is monotonous. If there is no corresponding adjustment, it must be boring. On this basis, Zhang Xiu directly brought out Cuju.


    Cuju, that is, football of later generations.


    It''s just that the rules are different.


    After all, there are fish glue, pig urine bags, and so on, which can be filled layer by layer, and can barely cope with. With the ball available for kicking, Zhang Xiu promulgated the rules of Cuju, which was formulated in accordance with the rules of football of later generations, to ensure that Cuju can be more reasonable and there will not be fights.


    When the rules and balls were made, Zhang Xiu let Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others carry them out.


    Not to mention, it set off a wave.


    Whether it''s watching football or entering the stadium, the soldiers always have a suitable one. The most important thing is that at this time of playing football, even if there is a referee in charge, there are fights from time to time.


    Every soldier who has no place to vent his energy has room to vent.


    This is what Zhang Xiu likes to see.


    In particular, the football, with the fastest speed, is popular in the whole army, and countless soldiers like it. Even when the soldiers in the army play football, there are some small-scale gambling. After all, people are like this. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes and interests. The soldiers made a bet on which side of the ball would win.


    Even if Zhang Xiu knew it, she had never checked it out. As long as it''s not too much, Zhang Xiu turns a blind eye. After all, when the water is clear, there is no fish. Zhang Xiu doesn''t interfere too much.


    When the soldiers in the army have a place to exert themselves, everything will be restored to order.


    When the soldiers are free, they talk about football.


    It also reduces conflict.


    Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others are also very happy about this, because they are happy to see it.


    It''s getting colder in December.


    Zhang Xiu''s tent, has been placed on the charcoal basin heating. With the burning of charcoal fire, the heat wave dissipates, and the camp is warm as spring, which is very comfortable. Zhang Xiu is dealing with some things sent by Chang''an.


    These specially sent, are very important, need Zhang Xiu decision.


    After Zhang Xiu dealt with it, she arranged for someone to send it back.


    This year, there was no war in Dajin. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, especially after the sweet potato was planted everywhere. At least countless soldiers could not lack food.


    The problem of food and clothing is already being solved. As for further enriching the people, there is a long way to go. Without a certain amount of time, this is impossible.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the tent came the voice of Wang Yue.


    The curtain of the barracks door was lifted, but Wang Yue rushed in. He bowed to his feet and said, "Your Majesty, the envoys of the state of Jin are looking for a meeting. Now, it''s outside the camp. "


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Wang Yue went to inform him that in a short time, the judge had already entered. But now, it''s quite awkward. After all, it''s windy, snowy and freezing. It''s not easy to get on the road in this cold winter.


    After seeing Zhang Xiu, Shen Pei bowed and said, "the envoys of the state of Jin, Shen Pei, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang xiudao: "Mr. Shen, what''s the matter?"


    The judge said, "I''m here on the order of your majesty. I''m here to ask for peace from your majesty. Today, the power of the great Qin Dynasty is so strong that it is difficult for the state of Jin to fight. Therefore, our majesty is willing to avoid fighting with his majesty. "


    In his words, they are all very purposeful. He didn''t say that the state of Jin was willing to submit to the throne as soon as he came up, because once he said the bottom line directly, it would be extremely difficult to negotiate next.


    The only way to make peace is to lay down a basic tone and say that the Jin Dynasty is just not willing to fight and is avoiding its edge.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to, so she can go on.


    Even if Zhang Xiu mentioned on her own initiative that the state of Jin must become a minister, then she could follow the trend and directly said that she would like to become a minister of the Qin Dynasty, then she would complete Yuan Shao''s arrangement.


    This is the mind of the judge.


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly, her eyes were sharp, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Shen, you are a wise man. When you say that I have so many advantages, I can destroy the state of Jin. Why should I accept the peace of Jin. Is it any good for my Daqin to seek peace in Dajin? "


    Hearing this, the judge said, "Your Majesty, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, is very wise. Then, the judge and the match dare to ask. He does not know what kind of conditions are needed before Daqin is willing to defuse the war, and then he is willing to strike a truce. "


    "No way!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said categorically: "now, it''s impossible to have a truce. When the cold winter of this year is over and the weather gets warmer in the early spring, my army will attack the state of Jin and destroy it in one go. "Hearing this, the judge frowned.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so difficult and didn''t give him a chance at all. His original intention is that if Zhang Xiu puts forward the conditions, then he can follow the trend and propose the matter of becoming a minister. But now, there is no such opportunity.


    "Emperor Qin, if you really want to fight, even if the state of Qin destroyed the state of Jin, it would cause great losses to the state of Qin. This is not good news for the state of Jin. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if we lose a certain amount of troops, we are willing to destroy the state of Jin. So, Mr. Shen, don''t waste your time. It''s impossible for you to ask for peace. "


    The judge bit his teeth and said, "Emperor Qin, Jin is willing to submit to the great Qin. The emperor of Jin is willing to honor the emperor of Qin and ask him to strike a truce. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Laughter, show disdain.


    Unexpectedly, Tang Tang Yuan Shao is willing to surrender and is willing to be a vassal of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Shen, you are as wise as Jushou and Tian Feng. When Yuan Shao lost his fighting spirit and army, it was impossible for Yuan Shao to compete with our troops. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "under such circumstances, you still have to fight again, and you are not willing to let Yuan Shao go and abandon the dark to the light? As you know, Ju Shi and Tian Feng are already important ministers of Qin. You are talented and capable. As long as you are obedient, I will be entrusted with the same important task. "


    Hearing this, she didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would say such a thing.


    To his surprise.


    The judge took a deep breath, but he said: "the Emperor Qin''s kindness has been appreciated. However, since he had already served the state of Jin, he should try his best to be loyal and dare not neglect it. So, I''m sorry to hear that. "


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head with regret and said, "judge and match, about whether to accept Yuan Shao''s surrender, you should go down. I''ll give you an answer after I''ve discussed with my advisers. "


    "Please reply as soon as possible," she said


    Zhang Xiu said, "I will give you an answer today."


    "Thank you, Emperor Qin!"


    After Zhang Xiu said thank you, Zhang Xiu called the soldiers, took the judge to step down, and let him wait for a while. Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for someone to call Sima Yi, Jia Xu and Zhang song, and said frankly about Yuan Shao''s resignation. Then she said, "what do you think about Yuan Shao''s resignation? Do you think you should accept Yuan Shao''s resignation or refuse Yuan Shao''s resignation £¿¡±


    When they heard this, they all thought quickly.


    Jin counseled.


    That''s a great thing.


    However, whether to accept Yuan Shao''s claim to be a minister or not, and whether to completely wipe out Yuan Shao, are the issues to be dealt with at present.

 Chapter 1026

    Zhang song was still an acute man. After a little thought, he said, "Your Majesty, I think it''s a good thing that the state of Jin is willing to be a minister now, but it doesn''t mean anything to the state of Qin."


    After a pause, Zhang Song continued: "we Qin have the strength to wipe out Jin, so there is no need to entangle with Jin. We just need to attack. The troops of Gaolan, pound and chendao were hoarding at the border. By the beginning of next spring, it will be enough to work hard to completely defeat the Jin army. "


    This is the simplest and most direct suggestion.


    Zhang Song believes that as long as it is indomitable, it is enough to win.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, then looked at Sima Yi and Jia Xu. At this time, Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Lord Zhang''s suggestion. There is no need to take care of Yuan Shao''s request for peace. Yuan Shao became a minister when Qin was powerful. If the state of Qin was weak, Yuan Shao would certainly bite his majesty. Therefore, I don''t think it''s necessary to beat around the bush with Yuan Shao. I just need to work hard to attack. As long as ye city is broken, the overall situation will be decided. "


    Zhang Xiu still nodded.


    For the time being, Zhang Xiu still did not express her opinions, but looked at Jia Xu for design.


    Let''s see what Jia Xu explains.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty, Sima Yi and Zhang Song agree with each other''s suggestions. They also think that Yuan Shao should be attacked as soon as possible after the Spring Festival."


    "Before that, however, he thought that he could take advantage of Yuan Shao."


    "Now, your majesty promised Yuan Shao to be a minister, and ordered Yuan Shao to hand over some grain and weapons. When the spring comes next year, your majesty will arrange people at will to create a little conflict at the border, and then you can find an opportunity to deal with the state of Jin. "


    "So, the best of both worlds."


    Jia Xu said: "this not only weakens Yuan Shao''s army, but also takes Yuan Shao by surprise. Why not do it?"


    Zhang Song frowned and said: "Jia Shangshu, he is famous for his division. What''s more, first promise Yuan Shao and then return, which will have a great influence on his Majesty''s reputation. "


    But Zhang Xiu explained: "there is no just war in the spring and Autumn period. In fact, there is no morality and justice in the fight between the two countries no matter when it is. Pay attention to morality and justice, that is to bind yourself, is to find a way out. "


    "This is war, not morality."


    "What''s more, Wen he mentioned that when war is about to start, any reason is also an opportunity for war. If we are strong, then we can fight at any time. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "similarly, if we are weak, our enemies will not give us a chance to survive."


    Zhang Song sighed.


    Unexpectedly, this time is Zhang Xiu personally refuted, is equivalent to personally slapped him.


    Zhang Song said: "Your Majesty is wise, but I didn''t understand."


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "I know Zhang Qing''s heart. You can learn from your loyalty for the sake of Daqin. "


    "Thank you


    Zhang Song immediately thanks.


    Zhang Xiu''s praise, at least give him a little comfort.


    After Zhang Xiu agreed on the matter, she stopped talking and immediately arranged for someone to call the judge. Now, in fact, his heart is still a little uneasy. Since he promised to be an envoy, he hopes to complete the task.


    In its position, seek its politics.


    That''s the reason.


    The judge bowed and said, "I don''t know what the final decision of Emperor Qin on the truce is?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I agree with Yuan Shao to become a minister!"


    Hearing the speech, the judge was relieved, folded his hands, bowed and bowed, and said: "Emperor Qin is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Yuan Shao can avoid swordsmen again. Of course, I''m wise. Mr. Shen is very happy that this is beneficial to the state of Jin. However, if I want to agree to Yuan Shao''s becoming a minister, I have three conditions. "


    The judge said, "please show it to the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are burning at the match, and the deep vision makes the match numb. If you say conditions, you can say conditions. The judge has been staring at him. What''s the matter.


    The judge should take a deep breath, cheer up and let himself face it calmly.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said, "my first condition is that Mr. Shen will no longer serve in the great Jin Dynasty. Yuan Shao himself orders Mr. Shen to join the state of Qin and serve for me."


    Boom!!


    Hearing this, the judge felt as if he had been hit by five thunderbolts.


    This condition is simply unexpected.


    Throughout the pre Qin period, the conditions of fighting have never been so strange as Zhang Xiu''s. Zhang Xiu asked Yuan Shao to transfer his envoys to another country.


    There was a moment''s blank in his mind. After he recovered, he said, "Emperor Qin, why do you have to put forward special conditions for such an insignificant person as me? What''s more, it''s not worth mentioning


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. Shen, this is not for you, but for Yuan Shao. How to make a decision is Yuan Shao''s own decision. If Yuan Shao doesn''t want to, he can refuse. In any case, it was Yuan Shao who became a minister, not I who asked Yuan Shao to become a minister. "The judge had a helpless look on his face.


    What''s the matter?


    He really can''t understand why Zhang Xiu is so eager to fight for him. Previously, Zhang Xiu took a fancy to him, hoping that he would abandon the secret and turn to the light. Now she starts from Yuan Shao.


    He is an envoy!


    But among the conditions, there was a clause that let Yuan Shao give him as an envoy to Zhang Xiu.


    I always feel uncomfortable.


    Although the judge can feel that this is the value of Zhang Xiu, otherwise, Zhang Xiu will not take this matter out as a clause alone.


    After taking a deep breath and suppressing his surprise, the judge said, "what''s the second condition of Emperor Qin?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "my second condition is that Yuan Shao arranges officials to inform the whole people of the state of Jin, and the state of Jin becomes a minister to the state of Qin. In addition, Yuan Shao called himself Emperor ER in front of me. I am just like his father. "


    Gudong!


    Take a sip.


    This is a great shame. It''s a shame that the state of Jin is supposed to be a son''s country, but the emperor of a country is a son''s emperor. However, he was not sure whether Yuan Shao would refuse or accept.


    He couldn''t see Yuan Shao clearly.


    After all, Yuan Shao is a man who is greedy for pleasure. He can give up a lot for power and pleasure.


    The judge said, "what''s the third condition?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "my third condition is that the state of Jin should submit himself to the state of Qin, and that he should submit his confession to the state of Qin every year. Each year''s supply is 1000 Jin of gold, 3000 pieces of silk and 100000 stones of grain. "


    "Hiss!"


    She took a cool breath.


    Whatever the conditions, they are all harsh.


    After all, Jizhou is the only place left in the state of Jin today. If we want to take out so much gold, silk and grain, we can take it out. But it is tantamount to hollowing out our family and plundering the people. In the end, the burden is on the people.


    In the early years, for Jizhou, this was just a small number.


    Now, it''s not a small number.


    "Emperor Qin, this condition is somewhat difficult. Can it be less?" he said


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "tell Yuan Shao that if we can make it all together, I will not reach the state of Jin. If it doesn''t, then let him be ready for the first World War. What''s more, this is a year''s supply of materials, which is not particularly large. For Yuan Shao, a little frugality was enough to put together the materials supplied by him. "


    The judge was so embarrassed that he could only say: "Emperor Qin, this is a big matter. I will return to Yecheng immediately and report to your majesty. At the end of this month, we will report the news to Emperor Qin. "


    "Hurry up!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if Yuan Shao is not willing, I will be ready to send troops after the Spring Festival."


    "Yes


    The judge should bow down.


    Immediately, the judge turned and stepped down. He came in a hurry and returned in a hurry. This is to go back to report the news. Please Yuan Shao make up his mind and see how to make a choice.

 Chapter 1027

    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and others and said with a smile, "my conditions have been set up. Do you think Yuan Shao is going to surrender or not


    This time, Zhang song did not take the lead.


    He sat and waited.


    But for a long time, Sima Yi and Jia Xu did not speak.


    However, Zhang song could not restrain himself and said, "Your Majesty, Yuan Shao will probably choose to refuse. If there was no emperor, Yuan Shao would only hand over some food and money, and he would certainly agree. It may involve emperor ER and his own reputation. I think Yuan Shao is likely to refuse this condition. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "there is a certain truth in what Zhang Qing said."


    Sima Yi answered and said, "Your Majesty, I think Yuan Shao will choose to agree. People''s bottom line is relaxed little by little. If there is no matter about Yuan Tan, Dajin bank or Guo Tu, Yuan Shao will turn his face immediately when he meets his Majesty''s conditions, and he can''t agree. "


    "But after the killing of Yuan Tan, the collapse of Dajin bank and the release of Guo Tu, Yuan Shao is no longer what he used to be."


    "Yuan Shao''s bottom line, is also a little bit of constantly open."


    Sima Yi''s eyes twinkled, and said: "under the premise that Yuan Shao''s bottom line is constantly torn, even if Yuan Shao is an emperor, he will not object. This is the humble view. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "there is a certain truth in what Zhongda said."


    His eyes turned and fell on Jia Xu. He said with a smile, "Wenhe, what do you think?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "Your Majesty, I don''t think I have any opinions. I think Sima Yi''s and Zhang Song''s suggestions have their own reasons. I don''t know for the moment. So, just wait for Yuan Shao''s answer


    Zhang Xiu was also interested and said, "Wen he is not willing to participate. Since there are only Zhang Qing and Zhong Da, I''ll give you a color head. As long as the person who guesses correctly, he will be rewarded with three hundred gold. "


    Gold here is not gold.


    It''s just brass.


    "Thank you


    Zhang Song and Sima Yi spoke together. For both of them, they didn''t care about how much money they had, but they only care about Zhang Xiu''s gift. That''s what makes people care most.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go ahead!"


    "Here it is


    Zhang song, Sima Yi and Jia Xu got up and left.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the back of the three people''s departure, and the corners of her mouth also evoke a smile. Now, she is looking forward to what kind of choice Yuan Shao will make. Is she going to choose to be the emperor or fight.


    ¡­¡­


    After leaving zhuxu County, the judge and match took a carriage to drive quickly. Rao is so, now the cold wind is blowing, the icy cold wind blows into the carriage, making the match making very uncomfortable.


    Even if you wear thick clothes, you can''t stop it.


    There was no way to get on the road on a cold day, especially when others had to be in a hurry, so there was almost no delay along the way, but just after the first ten days of December, he returned to Yecheng.


    When the judge comes back now, the whole person has lost nearly ten jin, even more. His face was covered with frost, and the stubble under his jaw was a little disordered, and he was very tired.


    However, the judge went directly to the prince''s residence to see yuan Shang.


    Now it is yuan Shang who governs the country.


    It is almost impossible to see Yuan Shao directly from Yuan Shang.


    When the judge met yuan Shang, he said three conditions for Zhang Xiu, and finally said, "Zhang Xiu said that if your majesty agrees, then the states of Qin and Jin will stop fighting. But if you don''t agree, after the Spring Festival, Zhang Xiu will continue to fight. "


    Yuan Shang frowned.


    He looked at the clauses and frowned. The first and third clauses are relatively easy to solve. After all, it''s not the first time that the state of Jin released people. The last time it gave Zhang Xiu Guotu, now it has no influence on Zhang Xiu. As for the supply of money and food, it is still relatively easy to solve.


    But in the second, he even called himself Emperor Er, which made yuan Shang frown.


    Yuan Shang said: "Duke of justice, this second article, there is room for change?"


    "No!"


    The judge shook his head and said, "Zhang Xiu is very tough, saying that his majesty either goes to war or agrees to it all. If your majesty wants to fight, Zhang Xiu doesn''t mind. "


    "Alas..."


    Yuan Shang sighed and said, "come on, follow me to meet my father."


    "Here it is


    The judge and match should go down immediately.


    Yuan Shang left the prince''s residence with his wife and took a carriage to the palace. In Yuan Shang''s carriage, there was a stove. The heat from the fire dissipated the chill.


    When the match was on fire, I felt much more comfortable all over. My stiff body was also soft. It''s really this round trip. It''s freezing. He''s freezing.


    Entering the palace, they were waiting in the main hall.About a quarter and a half of an hour later, yuan Shaocai arrived late. Now the weather is cold, Yuan Shao''s body and bones are even worse, and he has already lost his strength, and he doesn''t agree with his former handsome.


    When Yuan Shao saw the match, he was immediately overjoyed and said, "you''ve come back, judge Qing. It''s hard for you to go to zhuxu county this time. This time you go to see Zhang Xiu, has it been done? "


    Zhang Xiu was about to speak, but when his words came to his mouth, Yuan Shang snatched them. He only heard yuan Shang say, "father Huang, this time, Zhang Xiu agreed to make peace, but Zhang Xiu has conditions."


    Yuan Shao said: "what conditions?"


    Yuan Shang replied: "the first condition is that his father ordered him to serve Zhang Xiu; the second condition is that his father announced to the world that the great Jin Dynasty was a minister to the great Qin Dynasty, and his father called himself the son of the emperor, and he was willing to honor Zhang Xiu; the third condition is that he would supply 1000 Jin of gold, 3000 pieces of silk and 100000 stones of grain every year. This is Zhang Xiu''s condition. Zhang Xiu said that if his father and emperor did not agree, there would be a war after the Spring Festival and the Jin State would be completely conquered. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth.


    The emperor!


    He wanted to be Zhang Xiu''s son emperor. Knowing his age, he could be Zhang Xiu''s father. But now, it is a great shame for Yuan Shao to be the emperor of Zhang Xiu.


    However, to Yuan Shao, the first and the third articles were barely acceptable.


    After Yuan Shao was angry for a while, he thought about it in his heart.


    The judge stood at the bottom, and he looked at Yuan Shao who was in deep meditation. In his heart, in fact, he hoped Yuan Shao would fight to death. As long as Yuan Shao is willing to die, he is willing to die for Yuan Shao.


    This is the integrity that a minister should possess.


    This is the idea of matching.


    Yuan Shang stood at the bottom, but he didn''t urge him, because Zhang Xiu''s condition was so sensitive that he was ashamed to let his father and emperor be his son.


    Time goes by little.


    A quarter of an hour slipped away quietly. At this time, yuan Shaochang let out a breath and said, "I agree to the conditions of Zhang Xiu!"


    At the moment when the judge heard this, he felt a little shaken, but he recovered and said, "Your Majesty, I think that Zhang Xiu''s conditions are too harsh. In fact, I can ignore her."


    "No, I agree!"


    Yuan Shao shook his head and replied stubbornly.


    Now he is getting worse and worse, especially the hero Tomb of gentleness village, the gentleness village of the harem, has worn away Yuan Shao''s spirit and fighting spirit, and he has no fighting spirit.


    Even if it was the emperor, he agreed.

 Chapter 1028

    At that moment, it seemed that I heard my heart broken.


    Heartbreak!


    Yuan Shao finally abandoned him.


    In fact, he was loyal to the state of Jin, and he was a minister of Jin. He also hoped that Yuan Shao could be strong in this matter, so that he could persuade himself to stay in the state of Jin.


    As long as Yuan Shao left him, he would be willing to work for Yuan Shao no matter how corrupt the state of Jin was or how confused Yuan Shao was, but now it is not the same.


    He was abandoned.


    Yuan Shang stood aside, looking at the lonely look of the judge, his mind turned, and said: "the judge, my father agreed to surrender to Zhang Xiu, in fact, it is not regardless of you, it is not without you."


    "In fact, my father always valued you. Even if the judge came under Zhang Xiu''s command, he could be loyal to his father. My father knows justice, loyalty and righteousness. "


    "But it is not necessarily around the emperor that justice is judged. If you go under Zhang Xiu''s command and around him, you can be loyal and righteous, and even get information for your father. "


    Yuan Shangdao: "what does the judge think?"


    Yuan Shao''s eyes brightened when he heard this.


    Yuan Shang''s words are just God''s other heart.


    That''s true.


    Yuan Shao said: "Shen Qing, today''s state of Jin has reached the critical moment of life and death. On this occasion, it can only be hard for you. I believe in your loyalty whether you are with me or not. "


    I want to vomit.


    These two fathers and sons have lost their conscience and face.


    It''s disgusting.


    However, the judge''s face did not show it. He said with a straight face: "what your majesty said is true. I should be loyal to your majesty. No matter when and where I am, I will be loyal to your majesty. I will never change my heart and will never change my will."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Yuan Shao''s face was full of joy when he heard the praise. It''s really under his command, and now nobody can use it. With the loyalty of matchmaker, he thinks there are people who can break into Zhang Xiu''s interior.


    Yuan Shang also arched his hand and said, "all this is hard work."


    "I don''t work hard!"


    The judge shook his head with a faint smile on his face.


    Yuan Shao looked at Shen Pei and said, "Shen Qing, can the money and grain submitted to Zhang Xiu this time be postponed until next year. What did Zhang Xiu say about it? "


    The judge said: "report back to your majesty, Zhang Xiu orders that it must be delivered by the end of December, otherwise, Zhang Xiu will attack our Jin Dynasty in the spring of the next year. Today''s Zhang Xiu is extremely arrogant and domineering, and there is no room to turn around."


    "That''s disgusting


    Yuan Shao clenched his teeth and yelled.


    immediately, Yuan Shao ordered: "prince, you allocate food from the Treasury, and then gather food, etc., immediately arranged for people, rushed to the county. In addition, the imperial edict was sent to the whole world. From then on, I became a minister to the state of Qin. As for the matter of emperor Er, it can be mentioned a little, not too much. "


    "I understand!"


    Yuan Shang bowed down.


    Yuan Shao waved his hand and said, "step back!"


    Yuan Shang and his wife walked out of the hall together. After they walked out of the hall, Yuan Shang looked at his wife and said, "judge, you can''t blame your father. Alas, this time, my father was forced to be helpless. "


    The judge said: "there is nothing to blame. Up to now, it is related to the life and death of Da Jin. I''m a good match and can contribute my own strength. That''s what I should mean. "


    Yuan Shangdao: "justice is the highest justice!"


    They chatted and went out. When they got out of the Imperial City, they went home.


    When the judge returned home, he arranged to let the family pack up and prepare to leave.


    In just three days, Yuan Shang and others gathered all the money and grain, so he called for the judge to escort the grain and money to dangyin county. This was the closest transportation.


    After the examination and distribution of grain, there was a notice in Dajin that Dajin had become a minister to the state of Qin, and Yuan Shao called himself Emperor ER and did not dare to call himself Emperor in front of Zhang Xiu.


    As a matter of fact, about the emperor Er, it was only mentioned in an obscure way.


    It''s a little hidden.


    But the problem is that after Miao Yong''s royal guards got the news, they began to publicize it. Under the propaganda of the royal guards, in a short period of time, countless people in the whole state of Jin knew that Yuan Shao was a minister to the state of Jin, and that Yuan Shao called himself Emperor er.


    Countless people despised Yuan Shao.


    Countless people are totally disappointed.


    Yuan Shao was not affected by the people''s resentment and disappointment. Even Yuan Shao himself was still enjoying himself. However, Yuan Shao soon faced a problem, that is, money. After giving Zhang Xiu money and grain, the state treasury of Jin Dynasty began to be empty, and there was a shortage of money.


    After all, over the years, too much money has been consumed.


    When Yuan Shao found that there were difficulties in the turnover of money, he called to Yuan Shang and directly ordered him to arrange for tax increases and increase all kinds of taxes, not only for the common people, but also for businessmen.With the spread of the tax order, the whole territory of Jin, is boiling with resentment.


    Countless people were completely angry.


    He didn''t give any hope to Yuan Shao. Even in the territory of Jin, there began to be trouble. Thieves and bandits began to appear. Some people revolted and started to fight against Yuan Shao''s Jin.


    Miao Yong is very happy to see the success. He even arranged for the royal guards to stir up the flames.


    The decline of Jin was further aggravated.


    The news of Miao Yong also kept coming back to zhuxu county and Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu got the news and learned that Yuan Shao had chosen to call himself Emperor ER and become a minister to the state of Qin, she burst into laughter.


    Once upon a time, the proud Yuan Shao was born in the yuan family, four generations and three princes, a famous family, and was invincible.


    Once upon a time, the proud Yuan Shao, as the leader of the Allied forces, attacked Yuan Shao with high spirits.


    Once, the proud Yuan Shao captured Jizhou and became the leader of Jizhou.


    Now, he calls himself Emperor.


    It''s completely abandoned.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she called Sima Yi and Zhang Song and fulfilled her previous gambling agreement. Such a bet is just a small bet. It''s a small business.


    Soon after Zhang Xiu got the news of Yuan Shao''s surrender, she learned that the trial and match had entered dangyin County, and Chen Dao had accepted the money and food sent by the trial and match escort. She also left the trial and match family and temporarily placed the trial and match in dangyin county.


    In addition, news of the civil strife in the state of Jin was also sent.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu had foreseen the civil strife of Jin.


    Because the state of Jin itself is not rich. After a series of wars and the collapse of the great Jin bank, Yuan Shao finally lost money and food. The lack of money and food can only be passed on to the people, so when the people can''t afford it, they can only make trouble.


    The state of Jin is a mess, and Zhang Xiu is happy.


    Because next, he can go all out to attack Cao Wei. Yuan Shao doesn''t have to worry about it. After the spring of next year, Zhang Xiu can attack Cao ang in zhuxu county.


    If the state of Wei is destroyed, the unification of the world will be around the corner.


    In zhuxu County, Cao ang camp.


    Although the news of the state of Jin was first spread to Zhang Xiu, it was soon spread to Cao ang. After Cao ang learned about the changes of the whole state of Jin, he called Guo Jia and Xun you.


    Cao ang sighed: "it never occurred to anyone that Yuan Shao, who is so invincible, now calls himself Emperor ER and takes the initiative to submit himself to Zhang Xiu. In the territory of Jin, there are many wars and wars. All this is caused by Yuan Shao, who is now in a hurry to go to a doctor, so that the state of Jin is more and more exhausted. "


    Xun you said, "Yuan Shao has been completely abolished. It seems that the state of Jin can''t count on the war next year. Your highness, next year''s war is the time to decide the fate of the Wei state. "


    Cao ang said solemnly: "I know!"


    Guo Jia sat at the bottom with a solemn expression, but he didn''t say much, because now in the state of Jin, he was too lazy to comment. He used to work for Yuan Shao at first, but seeing that Yuan Shao was not the master of Ming Dynasty, he left Yuan Shao early and finally worked for Cao Cao.


    Cao ang discussed some defense matters, and then he took Xun you and Guo Jia out of the camp to inspect the training of the soldiers in the army, so as to ensure the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.

 Chapter 1029

    Playing football in winter is a great test for the soldiers in the army. But for the bored soldiers, it is also a very interesting thing, so whenever there is a ball game in the barracks, it is full of people. Countless soldiers watch the ball game and cheer for each other.


    Zhang Xiu also went to see the scene, saw the enthusiasm of the soldiers, saw the lively scene.


    It''s wonderful that soldiers enjoy it.


    In the midst of laughter and laughter, time has gone through another year, entering February of the next year. At this time of February, the weather gradually began to warm up, all over the country has been busy with spring ploughing. But in zhuxu County, there was a confrontation in the war, so that the common people had little farming. Those who should escape from the famine had gone, those who should join the army had joined the army, and the whole zhuxu county was empty.


    In Zhang Xiu''s barracks and school yard.


    Now, all the troops are gathered, and the liehu army, the feiqiang army, the Feixiong army and other counties all stand in their own yards. There are more than 100000 soldiers in the whole school.


    This is an unprecedented scale.


    Dense heads of people, under the move.


    Even if the soldiers murmured, it was still buzzing. Because there were too many voices converging, even if the voice was small, it was not weak enough to affect Zhang Xiu''s speech.


    Now, Zhang Xiu wants to mobilize before the war.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu had to work hard to completely defeat the army of Cao Wei, and then drive straight in and directly destroy the state of Wei. He looked around, raised his hand and pressed down. Gradually, there was silence.


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    A pair of binocular light, more reverence.


    A pair of binocular light, more love.


    The soldiers in the army have great respect for Zhang Xiu. Not only is Zhang Xiu good at running the army and fighting, but also Zhang Xiu is willing to share happiness with the people and the soldiers in the army. In addition, Zhang Xiu''s own strength is the best in the army, so no one disagrees with Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "son Lang, we have entered the territory of Wei since last year. Or earlier, many people were already in the territory of Wei the year before last. Are you homesick after a few years away? "


    The deep and loud voice resounded through the air.


    After the sound came out clearly, all the more than 100000 soldiers in the army heard Zhang Xiu''s voice.


    "Homesick!"


    "Homesick!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers are shouting, and more and more soldiers are shouting with them. They kept shouting, and the soldiers of more than 100000 people were shouting together. The voice was like a mountain shouting and a tsunami, as if more waves were advancing wave by wave.


    Its momentum is immense.


    Its voice soared to the sky.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the soldiers, he knew clearly that many soldiers really miss their hometown. One or two years is enough to change a lot of things and make a lot of things change.


    Fortunately, in the army, there are also things that allow soldiers to kill time. They can also let soldiers dictate letters, have them transcribed, and then arrange for people to send them back. In this way, the army is still stable.


    But after all, the soldiers have been out for a long time.


    It''s time to go home.


    But it is precisely the thought of going home that is the starting point of Zhang Xiu. He wants to make all the soldiers in the army cheer up, and then fight hard.


    Zhang Xiu did not interrupt the soldiers, but let them shout and let them vent. After a long time, the cries of all the soldiers gradually began to subside, and the surroundings gradually became silent.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "good. Not only are you homesick, but I am also homesick. Like you, I have a wife and children in my family. I have fetters in my family. I am concerned about the situation in my family. "


    "Now it''s getting warmer."


    "We have a chance to attack the state of Wei and completely destroy it. After we annihilate the state of Wei, we can withdraw our troops and return to Chang''an, where we can reunite with our families. "


    "If you want to go home and reunite with your family, fight hard. Through this war, earn meritorious service, earn rewards, and then you can go home with a straight face. "


    "If you want to go home and be with your family, don''t be weak on the battlefield. Because a cowardly person, even when he comes back home, will only bring back cowardice and contempt, which will lead to your family unable to lift their heads. "


    "Miss your family, miss your hometown, and if you want to go home, fight with all your strength."


    Zhang Xiu''s voice is more and more intense and sonorous. With this encouragement, he is going to boost the morale of all the soldiers in the army, so that all the soldiers in the army can fight hard.


    The final battle must be won.


    Zhang Xiu exclaimed and asked: "sons, do you have confidence to defeat the state of Wei?"


    "Confidence


    Countless soldiers yelled.


    "Defeat the state of Wei!"


    "Defeat the state of Wei!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers shout, more and more soldiers face, filled with high morale. Because for the soldiers in the army, they have seen the hope and are ready to defeat the state of Wei."Send out


    Zhang Xiu see the fire, no longer delay time, directly ordered.


    With a command, the mighty army quickly drove out of the school yard. This time, not only the flying bear army and the fierce tiger army, but also all the other elite soldiers. In addition to the auxiliary soldiers who don''t need to go to the battlefield, all the soldiers under Zhang Xiu who can fight in the first World War have already started with the army.


    The army is on its way.


    This news, also in the shortest time, was found by Cao''s sentinel, and then rushed back to Cao''s camp. Now there are fortifications built outside Cao''s barracks, and the defense is strict.


    It''s the result of a whole winter.


    Cao ang constantly strengthened the defense of the camp in order to defend.


    When Cao ang got the news that Zhang Xiu had come to the army with a huge army, he immediately ordered to drum up his troops and summon all the soldiers under his command.


    Cao ang now has nearly 100000 people under his command.


    All of them are in the barracks.


    At the gate of the barracks, Cao ang, dressed in armour, stood aloof. His appearance is not much similar to that of Cao Cao, but more like his mother. However, Cao ang, who is now in the army, is already full of iron and blood. Standing at the gate of the camp, he has a sense of kingliness as a superior.


    Cao ang waited quietly.


    Little by little the passage of time, the spring breeze blowing, the sun shining, all people are looking into the distance.


    Boom!


    All of a sudden, the sound of horse''s hooves came from the distance. The horse''s hooves kept trampling on the ground, making the ground tremble slightly inside and outside Cao''s camp.


    The cavalry of Zhang Xiu has come to kill.


    A troop of cavalry was encamped a hundred feet away from the camp.


    The cavalry was followed by the infantry.


    Each infantry is dressed in armor, each holding weapons, all in the camp 100 steps away. The dark army, arrayed outside the camp, gives people the feeling of wind and rain.


    When Cao ang saw it, he couldn''t help taking a deep breath. Because Cao ang was very clear that if the war was held, the state of Wei would have a smooth road, and at least in the next few years, there would be no worries about the war. But once this battle is defeated, then the state of Jin will lose the ability of defense completely, and the state of Jin will decline completely.


    In this battle, Cao ang must win.


    He can only win, not lose.

 Chapter 1030

    Zhang Xiu looks at Cao Jun''s camp in front of her and the fortifications built by the base, with disdain in her eyes. Let alone the fortifications of the camp, even if it is a strong city, Zhang Xiu will break it this time.


    Zhang Xiu is sure to win this battle.


    Zhang Xiu did not ride the horse forward, did not say superfluous words, directly ordered the attack. With an order from Zhang Xiu, the archers in the army came forward and set up their positions.


    The archers are all carefully selected. They have strong bows in their hands. One arrow is enough to shoot a hundred paces away. Although it''s all by luck to shoot a hundred paces away, more than a thousand archers shoot. The dense bows and arrows are like rain. Even if the arrows are not accurate, it''s enough as long as the strength is still there.


    "Shoot the arrow!"


    With Huang Zhong''s order, the archers fired their arrows.


    "Whew! Whew


    Dense bow and arrow, in the air, like a rain of arrows, began to fall to the gate of Cao army camp.


    The purpose of these bows and arrows is to suppress the soldiers in Cao''s camp.


    Soldiers who avoid sprinting are blocked.


    When the bows and arrows are fired intensively, the catapults are also quickly assembled. The stones are laid on the catapult, and then the lever of the catapult swings, and the stones have been thrown out. Stones were thrown at high altitude, and bows and arrows were used to suppress them, so as to weaken the defense of the Wei army.


    "Kill


    There was a cry to kill.


    The army of Qin began to charge.


    This curtain fell in Cao Ang''s eyes, and Cao ang immediately ordered to fight back. For Cao ang, although the current situation is unfavorable, Cao ang never retreated and ordered the defensive soldiers to fight back.


    The same bow and arrow, catapult counterattack, intended to shoot the attack from the Qin army.


    However, some of the bows and arrows still fell in the camp, causing casualties of the defensive soldiers. The bows and arrows and stones thrown by the soldiers of the state of Wei also fell in the crowd of the Qin army.


    There were casualties in the rain of arrows.


    However, the soldiers in the army are still rushing forward. With the passage of time, the soldiers of Qin army braved the rain of arrows and rushed to the camp outside the state of Wei. Although the walls were rammed and the arrow towers were built outside the camp, they could continuously resist the offensive of Qin army, but for the determined Qin army, no matter what happened in the front, the soldiers continued to rush forward.


    The fighting lasted until noon in the morning.


    Inside and outside the camp, it has become a meat grinder, and countless bodies have fallen to the ground.


    The army of Qin consumed a lot, so did the soldiers of Wei.


    At noon, Zhang Xiu did not stop attacking, but took turns to attack another army and continued to attack the camp of the Wei army. Under the attack of the dense soldiers, the offensive continued unabated, even more and more fierce, which caused great pressure on the Wei army.


    The rear of the Qin army, the central army.


    Zhang Xiu is still standing on horseback, overlooking the front of the war.


    Seeing the anxiety of the war, although Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry for the time being, she is not willing to delay like this. What we hope to defeat is his army.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, can we shorten the war and win as soon as possible?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    Jia Xu shook his head and said, "the army of Wei state has built extremely tough fortifications here. It is not easy to break the defense of Wei state. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, thinking in her heart.


    To be sure, it is very normal for a war to take a long time. But for Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t want to procrastinate like this, because it''s entirely up to soldiers to pile up with their lives.


    Zhang Song looked at the battlefield, but he didn''t speak, because he didn''t have a way to solve the current situation. After all, the Wei army in front of him had a tight defense and was not easy to break.


    "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."


    Suddenly, Sima Yi spoke.


    "Zhang Xiu said:" Zhongda plan out


    Sima Yi said with a smile, "now we have gathered most of our troops here in zhuxu county. Although, in addition to Cao''s army here, Liu Bei''s army is still ambushing on the way to Xuzhou. "


    "But from another point of view, Cao''s army gathered all the troops in this war, which means that there was no garrison in the rear of Wei. In that case, why not dispatch an army to attack the rear of the state of Wei? "


    "As long as Cao Ang''s rear area falls, what else can he take to compete with us? When the time comes, Cao''s army will break up and will not be able to fight again. "


    "After all, today, Cao Wei is on the defensive side, and last year, fortifications were built. Under this premise, it is not easy to break Cao Wei''s defense."


    Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty, please judge."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu always wanted to finish the battle and beat Cao Ang''s army. However, it is ignored that Cao Wei''s defense is strict now. Even if Zhang Xiu''s army can win, it will not win in a short time.It will take time.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu is absolutely sure to win the battle. Even if Cao ang is now fully defensive, but Cao Ang''s defense will be defeated, but it will take a long time.


    Zhang Xiu is eager to break the offensive of Cao Wei, so she asked.


    Zhang song takes a look at Sima Yi.


    There were some accidents.


    Sima Yi, a young man, has come up with such an unexpected scheme. Zhang song was even more upset. In fact, the plan was not complicated, but he didn''t come up with a solution, so Sima Yi took the lead.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Zhongda''s suggestion is really good. However, some adjustments should be made to this proposal. To attack Cao Ang''s rear army, he did not hide his tracks and made a surprise attack quietly, but went there in a aboveboard way. "


    "His intention was not only to attack Cao Ang''s rear area, but also to affect Cao Ang''s garrison morale. If Cao ang dares to divide his forces to attack, he will defeat the attacking Cao army head on. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if Cao ang does not divide his forces, then his rear will be affected. Cao Ang''s strength is weaker than ours, so we can take advantage of this opportunity to win the war. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Zhang Song immediately agreed, a look of approval.


    Sima Yi said: "it''s very good for your majesty to adjust the plan. But this time, who will be the chief General and how many soldiers will be sent


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "with Zhao Yun as the leader, he led the Baima Yicong and feiqiang army. The current strength of the flying Qiang army is more than 20000, and with the help of Baima Yicong, it reaches nearly 30000. Even if this force is blocked, it will be able to fight a war. "


    Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Sima Yi has no opinion about Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged to go on, less than a quarter of an hour, Zhao Yun led Baima Yicong, with aguli and feiqiang army, left the army in a mighty way, let zhuxu county to the north.


    Zhuxu county is an important town in the west of Beihai state. All the way to the north, you can go to the north of Beihai state, and then make a detour from the north of Beihai state to Donglai county.


    This will be a surprise attack on Donglai county.


    It was said that it was a surprise attack, but in fact, Zhao Yun did not hide his whereabouts, so the news of the army was soon exposed. The sentry who defeated the Cao army found it, and then the sentry returned to the Cao army camp as soon as possible.

 Chapter 1031

    Cao ang is now fully resisting the attack of the Qin army.


    This battle has lasted for more than half a day. Since the arrival of the army of Qin in the morning, the army of Qin kept on attacking. Even at lunch time, they were still attacking. Such an offensive put great pressure on Cao ang.


    However, Cao ang also knew that the battle of siege would go on and on and on.


    As long as we get through the first day''s attack, Zhang Xiu''s subsequent attack is certainly not so big. So for Cao ang, even if he tried his best to resist, his heart was full of hope.


    Cao ang is full of hatred for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu killed too many people.


    Xia Houdun, Cao Hong, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and Cao Cao died directly or indirectly in Zhang Xiu''s hands. This series of hatred made Cao ang want to tear Zhang Xiu apart.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, the sentry rushed to Cao Ang''s side.


    Sentinel report: "King Wei, Qin, there is a large army left, to the north of Beihai state. For the time being, it''s not clear what the other side''s intention is. There are soldiers on the front line who have been watching. "


    Cao ang immediately frowned.


    Zhang Xiu is divided.


    This is not good news for Cao ang.


    If Zhang Xiu''s army had been gathering here and occupied zhuxu County, Cao ang would have no worries. Even if Cao ang blocked Zhang Xiu''s army, the state of Wei would be safe.


    Cao ang looked at Xun you and said, "Mr. Xun, Zhang Xiu suddenly divided forces. What do you think?"


    Xun you said: "Zhang Xiu is now dividing her forces to the north of Beihai state. According to the humble inference, Zhang Xiu''s doing so is likely to attack our rear Donglai county. Just imagine, once the army of Zhang Xiu suddenly appeared in Huangxian. With the strength of Huangxian County, can we keep it


    "Hiss!"


    Cao ang took a cool breath.


    He''s really worried.


    Today, the whole Wei state''s troops are gathered in zhuxu County, and the rear Huang County has no troops. What''s more, Cao ang had already sent back news that Cao Pi had arranged to leave Huangxian county with Cao''s family and some of the families of civil servants and military generals to go to Lelang county. Under such a premise, Huangxian is even more empty.


    Cao ang took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Xun, what do you say to do?"


    Xun you said: "Your Highness, Zhang Xiu''s surprise attack was to make it difficult for us. If we rush for help, even if we don''t encounter ambush, it will be unfavorable for us to fight Zhang Xiu''s army head on. For Zhang Xiu, he is looking forward to fighting us head-on. But once the troops are divided, our defense here will be in trouble, and it will be quite difficult. "


    "This is the cunning of Zhang Xiu."


    "He saw the weakness that we were not strong enough to divide our forces."


    "I think there are two aspects to consider."


    "First, immediately arrange someone to inform Liu Bei, who is lying in ambush on the way to Xuzhou, to ask him not to be stationed on the way to Xuzhou, but to go north as fast as possible to resist Zhang Xiu''s strange soldiers."


    "Second, we should abandon the garrison of zhuxu County, perhaps withdraw our troops and return directly to Huangxian county. In this way, even the subsidence of Beihai or other counties still has no impact on us. "


    Xun you said, "this is the solution you can think of at present."


    Cao ang frowned when he heard it.


    It''s not easy to do.


    Either way, he thought, was not a good way. Because it is impossible to succeed simply by relying on Liu Bei to procrastinate. Cao ang was also worried that he entrusted the life and death of the state of Wei to Liu Bei.


    As for the retreat to Huangxian, it was a rout.


    This is also inappropriate.


    So Cao Ang''s heart, how to ponder, feel not easy to choose.


    Cao Ang''s eyes turned and fell on Guo Jia. He asked, "Mr. Guo, what do you think we should do after Zhang Xiu''s division to solve the current dilemma?"


    Guo Jia said: "Your Highness, now we can only do it according to the advice of Lord Xun. Because for the time being, there is no more suitable way. We are in a weak position and lack of troops. We can only rely on Liu Bei''s forces. What''s more, there is no natural moat or barrier for Beihai. Zhang Xiu wants to go to the rear of Donglai county. We have no solution. "


    "Alas..."


    Cao ang frowned and sighed.


    He concentrated all his energy on zhuxu County, intending to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. But unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu slightly adjusted his strategy, and he fell into a dilemma, so that zhuxu county''s plan completely lost its effect.


    For a time, Cao ang was in a difficult choice.


    He didn''t want to retreat.


    However, he had to withdraw. If he did not withdraw, once Zhang Xiu''s troops reached Huang County first, he would be cut off from the rear, and he would also be in trouble.


    Cao ang looked at the fighting outside the camp with a solemn expression.He still hesitated.


    Seeing that Cao ang was hard to make a decision for a while, Xun you knew that it was not a long-term plan to make no decision all the time, so he said, "Your Highness, let''s make a decision and let it go. Now, it''s not the time to procrastinate. The more procrastination, the worse for Wei. "


    Cao ang said, "Mr. Xun, how do you say the king should make a decision?"


    Xun you said, "in a word, first arrange someone to inform Liu Bei and make him rush for help. According to my understanding of Liu Bei, even if this kind of thing makes Liu Bei somewhat resistant, as long as it is to give certain benefits, Liu Bei will also agree. His highness just needs to arrange for someone to tell Liu Bei that as long as he can resist Zhang Xiu''s attack this time, then Beihai state will be assigned to Liu Bei to govern. Liu Bei will certainly agree to such conditions. "


    After a pause, Xun you continued: "as long as you can block Zhang Xiu''s attack and give the Beihai state to Liu Bei, why not. Although doing so, once really blocked Zhang Xiu, the consequences are serious. But no matter how serious the consequences are, they are not as serious as Zhang Xiu. "


    When Cao ang heard this, he nodded.


    It''s true.


    Cao ang immediately called the sentry who was in charge of the message. He immediately ordered the sentry to leave the rear camp as soon as possible, and then went to the ambush place of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.


    After all this, Cao ang continued to arrange soldiers to resist.


    When the sun sets, it''s getting late.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu beat the drum and ordered to stop the attack. One day''s fighting is a heavy burden for Zhang Xiu, so she needs to rest for a while and fight again after daybreak. Cao Ang''s sentry is going all the way south. At the fastest speed, he arrives at Liu Bei''s garrison in the early morning.


    When the sentry saw Liu Bei, he didn''t say much. He took out Cao Ang''s letter and handed it to Liu Bei. He said, "the king of Wei asked the Duke of Chu to go north as soon as possible. I hope that the Duke of Chu can lead the troops to intercept Zhang Xiu''s troops and ensure the safety of Donglai county."


    Liu Bei did not arrange for Zhuge Liang to come to discuss the matter. After all, it was late at night and Zhuge Liang was resting. So he said directly, "go back and tell the king of Wei that our officer will lead his troops north."


    "Here it is


    The sentry answered, turned and left.


    Liu Bei read the letter again, and every time he focused on Beihai. If Zhang Xiu''s army is blocked, Cao ang will let him govern Beihai.


    This is what Liu Bei expected.

 Chapter 1032

    Although Liu Bei had made a decision, he did not send troops immediately. Instead, he ordered the soldiers to call Zhuge Liang.


    Seeing Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei said, "commander, we have just received a message from Cao ang. Let''s go to Beihai and stop the Qin army who is going to Donglai County by a detour. Cao ang promised that as long as this battle was held, he would entrust Beihai to us. So I promised Cao ang to send troops. "


    With that, he handed the letter to Zhuge Liang.


    After Zhuge Liang finished reading it, Zhuge Liang said: "the Lord is right. Now we have no choice. If we don''t help Cao ang and let Cao ang be exterminated by Zhang Xiu, then we don''t have a place to live. "


    After a pause, Zhuge Liang continued: "no matter what, you must go to Beihai to stop Zhang Xiu''s surprise attack. The division of Zhang Xiu''s troops really gave Cao ang a great blow. With Yuan Shao becoming a minister to Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shao in the North unable to help, we are already alone. "


    Liu Bei said, "when you talk about Yuan Shao, it''s a shame. The emperor of the state of Jin, who claimed to be the emperor of the state of Jin, let Zhang Xiu handle it at will. He really lost his face. Yuan Shao was very high spirited when he attacked Dong Zhuo at hulaoguan, but now he is really disgraced. "


    Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "power can make people move forward, but power can also harm people. Yuan Shao had already abandoned everything for the sake of power. Don''t you think it''s Zhang Xiu''s job to judge the match? "


    "That''s true!"


    Liu Bei shook his head and said, "today''s Yuan Shao is no longer afraid."


    Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "Lord, let''s hurry up and go north. If you arrive at Beihai earlier, you can arrive at the attacked Qin soldiers earlier. Otherwise, a long delay will be detrimental to us. "


    Liu Bei nodded in agreement. Without much delay, he immediately mobilized his troops to the north.


    Today, the number of troops under Liu Bei is close to 30000. During his stay in Xuzhou, he did not rest. He had been training and recruiting soldiers to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army.


    Today, there are nearly 30000 people.


    Fortunately, Cao ang provided food, otherwise Liu Bei''s 30000 people would not be able to supply. Even though Cao ang had some ideas about food supply and was reluctant to do so, he had to admit it. Because without Liu Bei''s help, Cao ang would be in trouble, so Cao Ang''s gnawing teeth is also the full supply of Liu Bei''s food and grass.


    The army marched northward with the fastest speed. However, Liu Bei did not go directly to zhuxu county. Instead, he changed his way from the south of zhuxu county to the rear of zhuxu county and went straight to Duchang County.


    Duchang County is located in the north of Beihai state.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to go to Huangxian County, she is bound to pass through Duchang County, so what Liu Bei has to do is to guard Duchang County for the time being. When Liu Bei was guarding Duchang County, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong and feiqiang army had already reached Beihai National Opera county.


    Drama county is the seat of Beihai state, but today''s Beihai national drama county has weak defense, so it can''t defend at all. As soon as Zhao Yun led Baima Yicong, the whole line was defeated, so that Zhao Yun easily won the opera county.


    After Zhao Yun took control of the county, shortly after he left the county, he was informed by the sentinel that Liu Bei had been stationed in Duchang County to block his attack.


    Zhao Yun got the news and frowned.


    I didn''t expect Liu Bei to come again.


    In a word, there was some friendship between Zhao Yun and Liu Bei. However, later in Jingzhou, the friendship between the two sides broke down, and now it has long been a stranger.


    But even if Liu Bei gets in the way, Zhao Yun won''t stop.


    Today, the rule of the Qin Dynasty is around the corner.


    It is impossible for him to stop attacking just because he is Liu Bei. On the contrary, Zhao Yun must quickly conquer Duchang County, then go north again and go straight to Huangxian County in Donglai county to win the battle.


    So after Zhao Yun won the drama County, he set out again for Duchang County.


    While Zhao Yun is on his way to Duchang County, on the other side of zhuxu County, Zhang Xiu gets a message from the royal guards that Liu Bei is going north to Duchang County to stop him.


    Zhang Xiu is not worried about Zhao Yun.


    He believes in Zhao Yun''s strength.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, it''s not impossible to deal with Liu Bei. I heard from the royal guards that there was news about Liu Bei''s family in Chang''an. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Wang Yue said: "Huang Zhong once won Liu Bei''s family in Runan County. After Liu Bei''s wife surrendered, she soon found out that she was pregnant. Today, her children are more than one year old. Liu Bei had not been involved before, so he was not in charge of his humble position. Now that Liu Bei is in Duchang County, can he use his one year old child as a means of threatening him? "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu turns her eyes and thinks in her heart.


    There''s something interesting about it.


    As a matter of fact, after Liu Bei''s family had surrendered, according to the original agreement between Jian Yong and Huang Zhong, all Liu Bei''s family members were looked after by Jian Yong, so Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of Liu Bei''s family members.I didn''t expect that now, Liu Bei has a future.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Zilong is a man with a bottom line. He may not adopt such means to deal with Liu Bei. However, it can also be used a little bit. "


    It must be extremely difficult for Zhao Yun to use Liu Bei''s son to threaten Liu Bei to surrender. However, it is possible for Zhao Yun to persuade Liu Bei to surrender with the help of Liu Bei''s son, which can also weaken Liu Bei''s morale.


    Zhang Xiu immediately wrote a letter and handed it to Wang Yue, saying: "pass it to Zhao Yun as soon as possible. When he arrives in Duchang County, he must send the message to Zhao Yun for layout. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue turned around and stepped back.


    Sentry with Zhang Xiu''s letter, with the fastest speed, day and night did not rest, in Zhao Yungang just entered the border of Duchang County, has not arrived in Duchang County, can can sent the letter.


    Zhao Yun received a letter from Zhang Xiu. After reading it, he had a good idea and agreed with Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. He doesn''t threaten Liu Bei with his wife and children, but with the help of this persuasion and weakening Liu Bei''s power, it is feasible.


    Zhao Yun, with the army, continued on his way.


    In less than a day, the army had already arrived in Duchang County.


    Zhao Yun''s army is arrayed outside the city.


    The white horse was in the array, the army was in awe, and the soldiers were sharp. The soldiers of Baima Yicong were carefully selected by Zhao Yun. Each of them can be regarded as one of the best soldiers in the army.


    Besides, more than 20000 flying Qiang troops are also elite.


    They are all made up of Qiang people with strong fighting capacity.


    Of course, there are some Han soldiers in the flying Qiang army. After all, the flying Qiang army has suffered some losses in all previous battles. Aguli can''t recruit the Qiang people at any time, so he can only recruit some Han people. In particular, his flying Qiang army has also absorbed some of the 60000 elite soldiers from the Jin State.


    Zhao Yun, dressed in a white horse and white robe, rode forward. Now he is wearing a bright silver armor, a white horse in his crotch, and holding a bright silver gun with a dragon gall.


    Zhao Yun raised his head and looked up at the city. He had excellent eyesight. As soon as he looked up, he saw Liu Bei on the upper floor of the city. Today''s Liu Bei, but it is a lot older, temples have the color of wind and frost. However, Zhao Yun did not care about Liu Bei''s situation. Now he is here to attack the city.


    Zhao yunlang said: "where is Liu Bei when Zhao Yun is here

 Chapter 1033

    Liu Bei is standing on the tower. He looks at Zhao Yun with high spirits outside the city, and his eyes are even more hateful.


    Once upon a time, he and Zhang Xiu were close friends. But the problem is that over the years, Zhao Yun''s friendship with him has long been broken, and Zhao Yun even helped Zhang Xiu to do evil, which Liu Bei deeply hated.


    Liu Bei bit his teeth and said, "Zhao Yun, you still have the courage to come to see me."


    Zhao Yun said: "I, Zhao Yun, look up to heaven and earth and never do anything wrong. Why, I don''t have the guts to meet you. Does Xuande have any great kindness to me? Or, I''ve done something that I''m sorry for you, Liu Xuande, and I dare not come to see you. You can tell me why I, Zhao Yun, dare not come to see you. "


    Liu Bei was dumb.


    In terms of kindness, he didn''t have any kindness towards Zhao Yun. Even when he was under Gongsun Zan in the past, he always tried to win over Zhao Yun and let him use him.


    From the beginning to the end, Zhao Yun did not submit to Liu Bei, was not Liu Bei''s person, and did not form a friendship with Liu Bei. Therefore, Zhao Yun never failed Liu Bei.


    Only once, the relationship between the two sides was better.


    That''s all.


    Liu Bei is not a fuel-efficient lamp. As soon as the words change, he says: "Zhang Xiu is just like Jie Zhou. She is extremely tyrannical. She kills innocent people indiscriminately and slaughters the whole world wantonly. If you work for people like Zhang Xiu, you are helping the tyrant. How dare you act recklessly in front of Liu Bei? "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhao Yun couldn''t help laughing.


    In the voice, all show disdain.


    He was really ironic about Liu Bei''s words. He never thought that Liu Bei, who always boasted of benevolence and righteousness, should also give people a big hat. Moreover, this is a false statement, which is totally untenable.


    As soon as Zhao Yun brushed his sleeves, he said, "Liu Bei, you say that your majesty is like Jie Zhou, killing innocent people indiscriminately and tyrannically. But I think that you Liu Bei are talking nonsense and spitting out blood."


    "In Daqin under your Majesty''s rule, everyone has food and clothing. Your Majesty''s rule of the place is not to let the people have food and clothing, but to eliminate hunger and poverty, so that the people can have support and support."


    "In the world, who can do better than your majesty?"


    "You can''t be Liu Bei!"


    "Cao ang and Cao Cao can''t do it!"


    "Neither can Yuan Shao!"


    Zhao Yun has been following Zhang Xiu for a long time, and he has even more admiration for Zhang Xiu. Therefore, he retorts sharply and goes on: "if you say your majesty killed innocent people indiscriminately, did you ever kill prisoners?"


    "No!"


    "Your Majesty captured countless Cao Wei soldiers and finally released them. His majesty captured the soldiers of the former state of Wu, and also released them. His majesty captured Liu Zhang''s soldiers in Yizhou, but they are still released. "


    "What is not good enough for such a benevolent and righteous monarch?"


    Zhao Yun talks with great admiration for Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu always does not advocate killing prisoners. Instead of killing prisoners, he releases them to weaken the morale of the other party.


    Liu Bei is furious!


    Damn Zhao Yun.


    Once, he appreciated Zhao Yun''s loyalty, martial arts and talent, but now, he deeply hates Zhao Yun for defending Zhang Xiu and standing on the side of Daqin, regardless of his former friendship.


    Liu Bei turned his eyes and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu''s doing this is just hypocritical. What he has done is to bewitch the people and to win them over. "


    Zhao Yun said: "you are so poor at words that you can''t say anything like that."


    Liu Bei snorted and said, "if we say that Zhang Xiu is unparalleled in kindness and righteousness, she is kind-hearted. Why did Zhang Xiu arrest my family, but he slaughtered my family. Up to now, she doesn''t even know their life or death. "


    After Liu Bei''s family was arrested, Jian Yong and Liu Bei''s family members were sent to Chang''an, where Jian Yong lived and left.


    So much so that no news came out.


    Therefore, Liu Bei said that he didn''t know whether to live or not. Liu Bei had doubts in his heart. But before, there was no news channel, and he couldn''t find out about his family. So now, he''s just opening his mouth to test, but also criticizing Zhang Xiu.


    Zhao Yun snorted: "Liu Bei, you look like a white eyed wolf. Do you know that the reason why Jianyong opened the gate and surrendered in the past was that he took care of your family. His condition is that you Liu Bei''s family must be guarded by him. No one can deal with your family. "


    Zhao Yun''s tone became sharper and sharper, saying: "after the fall of Runan, Jian Yong and your family members have come to live in Chang''an. It''s always been Jian Yong who takes care of your family. Your Liu Bei''s family has always been peaceful and happy. "


    Liu Bei said, "who knows if your words are true or false?"


    Zhao Yun said: "not only that, when Jian Yonggang was sent to Chang''an, less than a month after they surrendered, your wife, Madame MI, was found to be pregnant. Now, he''s in Chang''an, giving birth to a fat boy for you. Liu Bei, Liu Bei, you say that your majesty is tyrannical like Jie Zhou. If your majesty is tyrannical, you will not leave your family''s life and your Liu Bei''s flesh and blood. "Boom!!


    In Liu Bei''s mind, there was a bang.


    There was a look on his face that could not be shocked. Liu Bei had a wife.


    Liu Bei had children.


    Liu Bei is now over 40 years old. In this era, he can call himself an old man and can be regarded as an old man. Liu Bei has no children, which is Liu Bei''s heart disease, but Liu Bei did not expect that when Runan fell, Madame MI was pregnant.


    Liu Bei also clearly remembers that on the eve of his military expedition, he did have a good time with Madame MI. Even Liu Bei wanted to make a man, not only Madame MI, but also Madame Gan.


    Unexpectedly, Mrs. MI was pregnant.


    When Liu Bei heard Zhao Yun''s words, his mind was in a mess and he was happy because he had a wife. But Liu Bei is also worried because his son is in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    That''s not good news.


    Zhao Yun continued: "Liu Bei, you keep saying that for the sake of ZTE, but now? The son of heaven of the Great Han gave his throne to his Majesty in person. The Great Han is dead. "


    "The trend of your Majesty''s domination is irresistible. No one can stop your majesty. No one can stop the front of the Qin army. On the contrary, you Liu Bei should put away your selfishness and consider your own offspring, because once you insist on doing so, in the end, your child will grow up and lose his father. "


    "Maybe even after the child was sent away, he didn''t know his father was Liu Bei from beginning to end."


    "For the sake of your children, for the sake of your family, it is not appropriate to continue fighting. So I urge you to surrender. What''s more, it''s even more impossible for you to resist your Majesty''s attack with this tiny force in your hands. "


    Zhao Yun talks bluntly, bewitching Liu Bei, hoping to make Liu Bei surrender.


    Liu Bei listened to Zhao Yun''s words, confused. He didn''t know how to choose.


    On one side, his ambition.


    On the one hand, his wife and children, especially his son, are the hope inherited by the old Liu family.


    Zhuge Liang stood aside and looked at Liu Bei with a frightened face. He sighed in his heart. Zhao Yun''s words upset Liu Bei''s mind and weakened Liu Bei''s fighting spirit. Even when Zhuge Liang looked around, every soldier lost his fighting spirit.


    Such an army is hard to fight.


    It can''t resist Zhao Yun''s army.


    Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, on the one hand, he is the son of the Lord, on the other hand, he is ambitious. No matter what the LORD chooses, the humble position will support him. Now, please make up your mind. "


    Liu Bei clenched his teeth and clenched his fist.


    At this moment, Liu Bei''s heart is still very tangled, just like in the past, his third brother was detained in the city tower, Zhang Xiu ordered him to make a choice, he did not know how to choose, finally Zhang Fei chose to commit suicide.


    Now, he still does not know how to choose.


    Liu Bei is already in a dilemma.

 Chapter 1034

    Zhao Yun said again: "Liu Bei, the state of Chu is dead now. The state of Wei will not last long. Just like the Wei state, we need troops, no troops; we need financial resources, no financial resources; we need foundation, no foundation. The resistance of the state of Wei was just a stubborn resistance. The resistance of the state of Wei is just a dying struggle. "


    "Your resistance now is of no help."


    "Why do you have to be stubborn again?"


    "It''s good for you and your soldiers to surrender early. Don''t you, Liu Bei, ever consider how many soldiers have been killed because of your ambition? "


    "At least, no less than 70000."


    Zhao Yun said: "seventy thousand people have died, and now there are twenty or thirty thousand under your command. Because you are determined to go your own way, because of your ambition, you still have to fight to the death. Do you really care about the lives of the soldiers under your command? "


    "If it''s a close match, or even if it''s a little weaker, then you Liu Bei still have a hope and a little idea to resist."


    "But now it''s hard to fight."


    "What''s the trouble?"


    Zhao Yun said: "in the end, it''s not only you, Liu Bei, who can''t defend Duchang County, but also you, Liu Bei, who will die. In the end, your soldiers will be lost. "


    Liu Bei''s face changed again and again.


    In his heart, he also had a little wavering, whether he continued to carry it to the end, or for the safety of his wife and children.


    Zhuge Liang stood aside and did not speak.


    He respects Liu Bei''s choice.


    No matter what, Zhuge Liang is willing to follow Liu Bei and fight to the last soldier.


    Liu Bei thinks. He looks around and looks at the empty space behind him. Suddenly, he thinks of Zhang Fei who died in the battle in Yin county and Guan Yu who died in the battle in the border of Xiangcheng County.


    Zhang Fei jumped down to die.


    Guan Yu was killed in Pingyu county.


    These are all his brothers.


    Brotherhood, brotherhood, but he can not put down, he can not surrender, because there are countless hatred. Liu Bei''s original idea of wavering, under the impact of Zhang Fei and Guan Yu''s hatred, has disappeared in an instant.


    Liu Bei put his hands on the wall, gritted his teeth and stared at Zhao Yun. He said in a deep voice, "Zhao Yun, even if you have bright tongue and you want to bewitch me, I will never surrender. This Duchang County is where you stop. You want to get through Changdu County, that''s impossible. As long as I am Liu Bei, then Duchang County will be invincible. "


    "How conceited


    Hearing Liu Bei''s words, Zhao Yun shook his head in disdain.


    Just Liu Bei, trying to resist.


    This is death.


    Zhao Yun did not say more, he raised the gun in his hand, pointed to the front of the tower, ready to give the order to attack. But at this time, behind him, aguli suddenly came up and whispered in Zhao Yun''s ear: "General Zhao, I have the royal guards to see you."


    "Please


    Zhao Yun gave an order.


    The royal guards under Wang Yue''s command are all over the country and are specially responsible for information. If the royal guards come to see you, there must be some very important news.


    A Guli ordered him to go down. Soon, he saw the royal guards coming. He came to Zhao Yun and said, "Ye Qingyu, deputy commander of the royal guards in Duchang County, meet general Zhao."


    Ye Qingyu, who was born in a poor family, was once a Ranger. Later he was recruited and became a member of the royal guards. But now, he is only the deputy commander of Duchang County, not a person of high status.


    For ye Qingyu, it is a great honor for him to become the Royal Guard of the Qin Dynasty, have a stable income and support his family.


    Zhao Yun said, "come on, what''s the matter?"


    Ye Qingyu replied, "report back to General Zhao, Lord Lin Yong, the leader of the royal guards in Duchang County, who has found Liu Bei''s granary in Duchang County. In addition, Lord Lin Yong has convinced the magistrate of Duchang County to submit to him. "


    "Mr. Lin Yong made a plan to let the county magistrate of the gambling house take people to the granary station this night to change their posts for the sake of ensuring the safety of the granary."


    "Once they arrive, they will start to kill the garrison and set fire to the grain."


    "As long as the grain Liu Bei hoards in the city is gone and tens of thousands of troops are short of food, then in the end, Liu Bei will not be able to stop General Zhao''s army," he said


    "Good!"


    Zhao Yun looked happy.


    He did not expect that Lin Yong, the Royal Guard of Duchang County, gave him such a big surprise at this critical time.


    It''s really unexpected.


    Zhao Yun said: "this general will postpone the attack and wait until you move to attack again."


    Ye Qingyu said: "the general is wise!"


    Zhao Yun waved his hand, and ye Qingyu turned and backed down. Now, he had to take a detour in the rear to avoid the range of the army, and then from the rest of the place, he took a detour over the wall and returned to the city to report the news.Zhao Yun raised his head and looked up at the tower. He had been preparing to attack, but now he said, "Liu Bei, I will give you a day to think about it. Tomorrow morning, the attack will be launched. I hope that this day, you can carefully consider. Not only for your son, but also for the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers under Liu Bei. "


    "Withdraw


    Zhao Yun didn''t even think about it, so he withdrew directly.


    The army retreated a few miles and camped, but Liu Bei on the upper floor of the city was a little confused because Zhao Yungang was so talented that he obviously wanted to prepare for the attack. However, a man came to Zhao Yun''s side to talk, and finally Zhao Yun stopped the attack.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "commander, Zhao Yun retreated suddenly and will not attack immediately. What kind of medicine do you think Zhao Yun sells in this gourd? "


    Zhuge Liang said, "there are two possibilities."


    Liu Bei said, "which two?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "first, Zhao Yun deliberately does not attack now, in order to demoralize our army and make all the soldiers have no desire to fight. Because the longer the delay, the greater the impact on our morale. After all, after Zhao Yun''s words, I''m afraid the hearts of the soldiers are all a little flustered. "


    "Second, Zhao Yun may unite with the people in the city to cooperate with each other. If I remember correctly, Zhang Xiu broke Wu County by using the old flying ball to carry the soldiers into the city of Wu County, and then cooperated with the Lu family of Wu county to open the city gate. Zhao Yun tonight, it may be the same old trick, and Zhang Xiu to adopt the same means


    Zhuge Liang''s eyes twinkled with wisdom, and he analyzed the current situation.


    Liu Bei said: "if Kong Ming didn''t say it, I almost forgot. Zhang Xiu is now attacking the city and plundering the land. Her flying ball is really haunted and not easy to defend. I agree with you on two points. Even, I think Zhao Yun is likely to choose the second one. At night, he suddenly broke the county seat by acting in concert with the outside world. Zhao Yun has cavalry under his command. If we fight Zhao Yun head-on, we may not be Zhao Yun''s opponent. "


    Zhuge Liang said, "my Lord is wise!"


    Liu Bei said: "it''s much better now that we have foresight. In that case, we should arrange to wait until the evening and carefully inspect the sky above the city tower. Once there is a flash of fire and a flying ball in the air, we should immediately use the crossbow design. "


    "Here it is


    Zhuge Liang nodded, then turned to arrange.

 Chapter 1035

    As the sun sets, it''s getting dark.


    Duchang County, a residential.


    This is the residence of Lin Yong, the commander of the royal guards in Duchang County. Lin Yong is young, nearly 30 years old, with eight character eyebrows and fierce eyes, which makes people feel aggressive. His appearance is very rough, typical of the northern big man.


    As a matter of fact, Lin yongben is not from Duchang County. He was born in Zhuo County, Youzhou. When he was young, he wandered around and finally settled down in Duchang County.


    Lin Yong himself, when the royal guards told the development, also became the leader of the royal guards in Duchang County.


    In the study, Lin Yong is reading a book.


    He waited for the leaf herring to come back and report the news.


    As a matter of fact, ye Qingyu had already returned to the city from outside the city. However, after ye came back, Lin Yong arranged for ye Qingyu to go to the county government to report to the magistrate of Duchang County, informing him that the action in the evening was going on as scheduled without any impact.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A sound of walking came, Lin Yong looked up, but saw Ye Qingyu stride forward.


    After ye Qingyu entered, he bowed and said, "chief, Pei county magistrate has agreed. He asked us to gather outside the county government on time at midnight and go to the granary with him. "


    "Good!"


    Lin Yong responded directly.


    The magistrate of Duchang County was named Pei Qian. Lin Yong knew him, because Pei Qian led the way to the granary. Without Pei Qian to lead the way, it was not easy to get close to the granary.


    After the herring retreated, he went down to prepare.


    Time goes by little.


    Before the time of Haishi, Lin Yong and ye Qingyu were already in action. They were all dressed in the clothes of the county yamen, which they had taken from the county yamen.


    Lin Yong and his party had 100 people.


    The party came to the county government, just close to the time of Hai, and Pei Qian also came out. Pei Qiannian was nearly forty years old. He was a gentle Confucian. When he saw Lin Yong, he said, "Lord Lin, let''s go!"


    "Good!"


    Lin Yong should go down.


    When the forces of the two sides converge, there are about 200 soldiers.


    Along the street, they went straight to the granary, about a quarter of an hour from the county government to the granary. This journey for Lin Yong, a heart has been raised in mid air.


    I''m afraid I''ll meet the soldiers on patrol.


    All along the way, everything went smoothly and safely came to the location of the granary.


    The generals stationed in the granary were Liu Bei''s men. When Pei Qian led his troops forward and was more than 20 steps away from the granary, the garrison general was not on guard because he knew Pei Qian. He just stopped and said, "Pei county magistrate, why are you bringing people here?"


    Pei Qian said in a deep voice: "the Duke of Chu said that it is very likely that Zhang Xiu will attack at night. All the troops are stationed on the top of the city. Therefore, now I am specially arranged to change the defense. You will come back to guard in the middle of the night after your rest and in the morning tomorrow


    The garrison general, however, had no doubt. After all, Pei Qian had been cooperating. Even when he arrived, Pei Qian took out the grain of Changdu county to Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei could guard it.


    The general nodded and ordered the soldiers to leave.


    Each side moves forward.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than three steps, Lin Yong did not delay any longer and ordered: "kill!"


    At his command, the royal guards and the rest of the soldiers quickly pulled out their swords and directly killed them.


    Originally, there were only more than 60 soldiers stationed near the granary, but now they were suddenly attacked. They had no defense at all. They were all killed in an instant.


    More than 60 people were killed.


    After Lin Yong killed people, he immediately arranged for them to light a fire.


    With a torch thrown into the granary, the huge granary, in a short time, will burn up. Originally the granary was very easy to be ignited, but now the flames are running wildly. These countless fires are constantly burning and moving. In a short time, they have formed a torrential fire.


    The whole granary was as bright as day in the red light of the fire.


    Even as the fire grew, the darkness around the granary was dispersed.


    Lin Yong and Pei Qian look at each other, but they retreat quickly. Because all the soldiers stationed at the scene were killed, and no one saw him, Lin Yonggen was not worried about exposure.


    After the evacuation, the granary was still burning.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    The fire was burning, and even from a distance, the whole city could be seen.


    In the direction of the tower, on the tower where the west gate was located, the soldiers stationed found it and immediately reported it to Zhuge Liang.


    When Zhuge Liang saw a fire burning in the north of the city, especially the fire, which had dispelled the darkness and even the whole city, he frowned and had a bad feeling.


    This seems to be where the granary is.


    Could it be that


    Zhuge Liang had a guess in his heart and didn''t dare to delay. He immediately arranged for the soldiers to inquire about the news. Then Zhuge Liang went straight to Liu Bei''s room on the upper floor of the city.When Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei, he immediately reported: "my Lord, it''s not good. Our food and grass may have been ignited by the fire and turned into a sea of fire. For the time being, however, it is not clear whether this is the case. At present, I have arranged for soldiers to go to inquire for information. "


    "What?"


    Liu Bei''s heart suddenly panicked.


    Food and grass are crucial.


    Once the grain and grass are lost, it means that the whole army has lost its logistic supply and can no longer guarantee the food for the soldiers.


    Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "now the situation is extremely dangerous. If the grain and grass were really burned, I''m afraid that in such a big Changdu County, it would be difficult for us to have a foothold. Kong Ming, what do you think we should do? "


    Zhuge Liang frowned with solemn expression.


    "Dong! Dong


    All of a sudden, the rapid sound of war drums sounded from outside the city, which broke the tranquility of the night. Outside the city, there was a torch, which burned and dispersed the darkness.


    "Newspaper!"


    The next moment, a soldier came to Liu Bei''s room and reported in a loud voice: "Duke Chu, it''s not good. There were countless Qin troops outside the city, and the Qin troops led by Zhao Yun came to attack at night. "


    Liu Bei''s face has changed a lot.


    If the food and grass were not burning in the city, then Zhao Yun could not attack overnight. Only when food and grass are burning in the city will Zhao Yun launch an attack, intending to take advantage of the situation to attack Changdu county.


    "Liu Bei, if your food and grass are burned, you will surely be defeated!"


    All of a sudden, the sound of a neat and sincere cry sounded from outside the city. This is the cry of countless people, the voice gathered together, straight into the sky, but also spread all over the city.


    When the news came out, Liu Bei soldiers stationed on the city tower heard it, they were all cool in their hearts.


    Every soldier was worried.


    Because the city''s food and grass were burned, they no longer have food supplies, to resist Zhao Yun''s army for a long time, it is just like a fool''s dream.


    Zhuge Liang''s face changed again and again, because Zhao Yun''s plan was a chain game. First, he arranged for people to burn the granary, followed by soldiers to attack at night, and finally arranged for people to make a noise to say that the granary was burned.


    With the city burning, all the soldiers under Liu Bei''s command would believe and know about the collapse of the granary. No one would doubt it.


    So much so that the morale of the army collapsed.


    Zhuge Liang sighed in his heart and said, "Lord, withdraw. As long as Zhao Yun is killed tonight, once he attacks, we can''t stop him at all. If you delay and get stuck in Changdu County, I''m afraid you can''t escape. At present, we have to retreat first! "


    "Alas..."


    Liu Bei sighed.


    At this time, endless helplessness rose in his heart. In the past, he fought with Zhang Xiu in Jingzhou, so that he was calculated by Zhang Xiu. In the past, he went north from Runan County to help Cao Cao, and was calculated by Zhang Xiu. Now, he went to Changdu county from Xuzhou, and was calculated by Zhao Yun under Zhang Xiu''s command. He has never won a single victory. He is really depressed.


    "Go away!"


    Liu Bei had no choice but to give an order.


    "Here it is


    When Zhuge Liang got the order, he immediately arranged to go on. In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei and others had left the west of the city and started to go to the east city, ready to break through from the east city of Changdu county.

 Chapter 1036

    Liu Bei led the army and quickly evacuated from Ximen, so that the feiqiang army led by Zhao Yun easily broke the defense of the city tower when they launched the attack.


    The flying Qiang army took control of the tower and sent the news back.


    Zhao Yun has always been outside the city, including his Baima Yicong. When Zhao Yun gets the news that Liu Bei is not in Ximen, and Liu Bei''s army has withdrawn from Changdu County, Zhao Yun starts to sneer.


    Liu Bei wants to escape, which is so easy.


    Especially in Sifang of Changdu County, he set up a sentry. As soon as Liu Bei left the county seat of Changdu County, the sentry would immediately find out. What''s more, in April, the moonlight is like water at night. Even if there is no torch, you can see it a little. When there is a torch shining, marching and fighting are still as unaffected as day.


    Zhao Yun allowed the flying Qiang soldiers to enter the city and quickly captured the county seat of Changdu county.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s army was still stationed outside the city.


    He waited quietly for the news of Liu Bei.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentry came running. Sentry came to Zhao Yun''s side and reported: "general, Liu Bei led the army to break through from the east gate."


    "The white horse obeys orders!"


    Zhao Yun gave an order.


    "Yes


    Three thousand white horses were obedient, and they all answered.


    "Kill me!"


    As soon as Zhao Yun kicked the broken horse, he had already killed it. Today, Zhao Yun''s horse is a good horse bred by Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping. It is very excellent, fast and heavy-duty. As Zhao Yun shakes his reins, the horses are rushing out like an arrow from the string, and the 3000 white horses under his command are also surging out.


    Boom!!


    White horse Yi from the fast run up, a torch burning, disperse the darkness. And one horse''s hooves trample on the ground, making the whole ground vibrate.


    The three thousand white horses had already disappeared in Simon.


    Zhao Yun leads Bai Ma Yi to go on his way. He doesn''t let his infantry follow him immediately. He just lets a Guli take part of the flying Qiang army with him and follow him slowly, waiting for the follow-up to clean up the battlefield.


    In fact, Zhao Yun''s cavalry was enough to chase down Liu Bei''s infantry.


    For Zhao Yun, his infantry were extremely fast. In less than two quarters of an hour, they were outside the east city, and then caught up with Liu Bei''s army.


    A horse in the dark, with the help of burning fire.


    The horses rushed into the soldiers under Liu Bei.


    The spear came out and killed the soldiers.


    The war horses ran over Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    Facing the cover up and killing of cavalry, Liu Bei''s soldiers were in a complete chaos. No one organized to resist, and no one stayed to fight. They just kept on running away, just wanted to escape from Baima Yicong''s pursuit.


    With the killing going on, Zhao Yun''s soldiers chanted that those who surrender will not be killed. With the slogan, countless Liu Bei''s soldiers, who are already unable to bear it, choose to surrender one after another.


    "I surrender, don''t kill me!"


    "I surrender!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, the soldiers threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender. The surrendering man, like a wave of wheat, kept falling down and kneeling on the ground. The scene was magnificent.


    Zhao Yun saw the surrender of Liu Bei soldiers, but did not go to the tube. Because these soldiers are under the management of the flying Qiang army, Zhao Yun just needs to keep on chasing and take Liu Bei.


    This is Zhao Yun''s goal.


    Zhao Yun led his soldiers and continued to march forward.


    The army is still on its way.


    More and more soldiers died under Baima Yicong''s command, and more and more surrendered. Zhao Yun is indomitable. When he pursues, he is getting closer and closer to Liu Bei''s big flag. The distance between the two sides is less than 60 steps.


    Liu Bei, together with Zhuge Liang, is still retreating rapidly.


    When he saw the soldiers who surrendered in the rear, his heart was like a knife. All these soldiers were the elite under his command, but they were all the elite that he tried hard to win over.


    Now, they are capitulating.


    When Liu Bei saw Zhao Yun and his party behind him, especially the white horses, he felt a little frightened. As a man who was once under Gongsun Zan''s command, Liu Bei knew the power of Baima Yicong. All these white horse followers are extremely fierce, and they are extremely difficult to deal with.


    "Fast, faster, full retreat!"


    Liu Bei roared, and his face was very nervous. He looked at Zhuge Liang and exclaimed: "military division, retreat quickly, hurry to retreat!"


    Zhuge Liang''s riding skill is also good, but compared with the real cavalry''s riding skill, there is a gap. Even if he pushes the horse, the horse in his crotch is hard to get rid of the pursuers.Both Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang were nervous.


    They kept accelerating and ran forward for about two quarters of an hour. There were fewer and fewer soldiers around them. Similarly, the distance between them and Bai Ma Yi, led by Zhao Yun, is constantly narrowing. The distance between them is less than 30 steps.


    Liu Bei still didn''t give up. He kicked the horse''s belly with both legs, bit his teeth and continued to run forward. Liu Bei ran another quarter of an hour, and the distance between the two sides was less than 15 steps.


    Zhao Yun is chasing after him in the rear.


    When he saw Liu Bei, he could shoot him in such a short distance. However, when Zhao Yun was running, he put away his bow and arrow, took out the big bow at his waist, put his hand on it, took out a bow and arrow from the pocket on the horse''s back, put it on his contribution and aimed at Zhuge Liang''s position in front of him.


    "Hum!"


    The bowstring vibrates and the bow and arrow come out.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow broke through the air, but it was only ten steps away. In a twinkling of an eye, it was behind Zhuge Liang. With a puff, the bow and arrow shot into Zhuge Liang''s horse''s buttocks.


    "Herod


    When a horse is in pain, he will go mad.


    Zhuge Liang''s riding skill was not very good. When his horse swung, he couldn''t hold his body and was thrown out directly. Just as he flew out of his body, he suddenly saw another bow and arrow coming, hitting Liu Bei''s horse.


    This is Zhao Yun''s second bow and arrow.


    His first bow and arrow came out, followed by his second.


    When the second bow and arrow hit the horse under Liu Bei''s crotch, the horse ran wildly. Even though Liu Bei had excellent equestrian skills and wanted to control the horse steadily, he was defeated and his body was thrown out.


    "Plop!"


    Zhuge Liang fell to the ground first.


    "Plop!"


    Liu Bei was also beside Zhuge Liang, and then he fell to the ground.


    Two people landed one after another.


    Whether Zhuge Liang or Liu Bei, they were all thrown to pieces, and their whole body seemed to have fallen apart.


    The rest of the soldiers with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang rushed to protect Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but the distance of more than ten steps was only a matter of a flash for the running horses.


    Liu Bei''s soldiers want to resist, but in the twinkling of an eye, they are killed by Zhao Yun and his party. Zhao Yun''s horse has stopped in front of Liu Bei.


    The sharp silver spear of dragon gall was placed three inches in front of Liu Bei. As long as Zhao Yun a little hard, a shot down, it is enough to kill Liu Bei.

 Chapter 1037

    "Hoo! Hoo


    Liu Bei gasped, and his face was extremely tense. When he was pointed at the chest by Zhao Yun, his face had become extremely embarrassed.


    For the first time, he lived for more than 40 years.


    In particular, he was stabbed in the chest by Zhao Yun, which made Liu Bei extremely embarrassed.


    Zhuge Liang was also captured by the soldiers.


    Zhao Yun stared at Liu Bei lying on the ground and said, "Liu Xuande, you are defeated."


    Bearing the pain of his body, Liu Bei expressed a touch of expectation in his eyes and said, "Zilong, let me live. Please look at our friendship to the West and let me live


    "No way!"


    Zhao Yun didn''t even think about it and answered directly.


    Liu Bei can''t be released.


    Even if he is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother and Liu Bei is released, he may not be disposed of. But for Zhao Yun, the public is private and the public is private. What''s more, it''s not the first time that he saw Liu Bei. When he was in Jingzhou in the past, his friendship with Liu Bei has become a thing of the past.


    Did you forget that when we talked about the love of sun Zhilong, we were able to meet again? I don''t ask for anything, just let me live. You are the master of Baima Yicong. Baima Yicong will obey your arrangement. As long as you don''t say it, no one will ever say it. Zilong, please let me live. "


    Zhao Yun looks at Liu Bei in front of him.


    He''s a little strange.


    Is this the ambitious Liu Bei or the magnanimous Liu Bei?


    Zhao Yun also knows that Liu Bei is not willing to fail, and he is not willing to be Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. He must still want to revenge. That''s why Liu Bei wants to leave. For people like Liu Bei, as long as he is alive, he still has a chance.


    Therefore, Liu Bei begged for mercy.


    Turning his mind, Zhao Yun suddenly said, "Liu Bei, you and Zhuge Liang can only leave one person. How do you choose? "


    Liu Bei''s eyes widened.


    He did not expect that Zhao Yun would raise such a question.


    It''s a hard choice.


    The look on Liu Bei''s face was full of embarrassment. He looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, can''t we both be released at the same time?"


    "Of course not!"


    Zhao Yun''s firm answer.


    He did not give any leeway, just let Liu Bei make a choice.


    Liu Bei, however, was an unyielding character and said, "Zilong, please let me and the military adviser go in our old ways. I know it''s going to embarrass you. However, for today''s Qin army, even if we are released, it is just a small matter for you, which has no impact. Zilong, please


    For Liu Bei, there is no such thing as face. He once lived under Liu Yu''s command for the chance of meritorious service, and then took part in the battle against Huangjin. Later, he lived under Gongsun Zan''s command for the purpose of taking part in the vassal''s attack against Dong Zhuo. Later, he lived under Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and he had enough face to deal with it What kind of things.


    For Liu Bei, as long as he can get through this, what is humiliation?


    In order to survive, Gou Jian once tasted dung for Fu Chai, the king of Wu. He completely reassured Fu Chai. Now Liu Bei is just begging for mercy. If we can get rid of the current predicament, Liu Bei is willing.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhao Yun eagerly with an expectant look in his eyes.


    Zhao Yun laughed and said, "Liu Bei, you are always thick skinned. I mentioned you when I chatted with your majesty. Your majesty once said, "Cao Cao is a man with a thick face and a black heart. He is resolute and resolute in doing things. He has never been influenced by anything. He is a hero."


    "Your Majesty once commented on you, saying that you have been defeated many times, that you are extremely tough, and that you are a man with thicker skin than the city wall. At one time, I didn''t really believe it, but now I''ve seen it. "


    "It''s an eye opener to ask for mercy like this, as the supreme ruler of a country. You know, when Cao Cao was defeated, his majesty ordered him to surrender and wanted to capture him alive, but Cao Cao committed suicide directly. "


    "Even though sun CE, who surrendered, was beaten by Lu Xun because of his hatred for the Lu family. In order to save his family, he was willing to kill himself. When you come here, there is no family or face. "


    Zhao Yun sneered: "as long as you can survive, you can do anything. A man like you is really powerful


    Liu Bei''s face twitched and his expression changed constantly. His heart, there is a moment, want to die directly, it is Zhao Yun''s words, like a sharp knife, directly poked in his heart, let him particularly uncomfortable.


    But Liu Bei still suppressed this anger.


    Liu Bei wants revenge!


    Liu Bei is not willing to be caught by Zhang Xiu, not willing to become Zhang Xiu''s prisoner.


    Liu Bei took a deep breath and said again, "Zilong, you''re right. I''m thick skinned, but I can''t put it down. Zilong, the friendship between you and me has been more than ten years. I don''t ask you anything. I just ask you to release me and the military adviser, and I sincerely ask Zilong to do it. ""No way!"


    Zhao Yun shook his head again.


    Zhao Yun said: "just now, I have said that you can only choose one. Either, let Zhuge Liang leave; or, you stay as a prisoner. How would you choose? "


    Listening to Zhao Yun''s words, Liu Bei felt the decisive decision in Zhao Yun''s words, and sighed in his heart. He knew that Zhao Yun would not make any concessions, and it was impossible for him and Zhuge Liang to leave.


    Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "commander, you will stay under Zhang Xiu for the time being. When I get back in line, I''ll save you. "


    When Zhuge Liang heard this, he shook his head and laughed bitterly.


    People just can''t stand the test.


    When it comes to his own security, he, as a military strategist, can also be abandoned.


    Even if Zhuge Liang knew clearly that such a choice was meaningless, because such a choice tested human nature too much. But when he heard Liu Bei''s words, Zhuge Liang was still a little lost.


    Zhuge Liang sighed: "my Lord, Zhao Yun can''t release you. Just now, he was just testing you. As a white horse subordinate general under Zhang Xiu''s command, he would not do such a thing. "


    Liu Bei looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, as you said just now, my military adviser and I chose one. Now, I''ve made a choice. You, let me go, let me go. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Liu Bei, you have a good eye besides your tenacity, but you can''t match Zhuge Liang after all. He''s right. I can''t release you. Just now, it was just a trial. You Liu Bei have been enemies to your majesty many times. How can I release you. How can I account to your majesty then? "


    "Zhao Yun, you deceive people too much!"


    When Liu Bei heard this, he became very angry.


    He suddenly ignored Zhao Yun''s Dragon gall bright silver gun in front of him. He stood up and stared at Zhao Yun with burning eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "it''s a pity that we knew each other before. I really regret knowing you."


    Zhao Yun said: "I also regret knowing you, because now Liu Bei is really despised. If you commit suicide, I Zhao Yun will call you Xuande gong or uncle Liu. But you are despised. Just like Yuan Shao in the north, he calls himself Emperor ER in front of his majesty, which makes people look down upon him. "


    "You, you..."


    Liu Bei big sleeve a brush, way: "I Liu Bei, can''t be Yuan Shao that kind of person."


    He gritted his teeth and said, "if you want to kill or cut, just come."


    "Of course not!"


    With a smile on his face, Zhao Yun said, "of course, if you want to commit suicide, I will not stop you. After all, your Majesty''s captives and suicides are not one or two. Cao Cao, Dian Wei, sun CE and Zhou Yu all committed suicide. "


    Liu Bei was silent for a moment.


    Suicide?

 Chapter 1038

    When Zhao Yun mentions suicide, he still looks at Liu Bei. Because today''s Liu Bei is no longer the one he used to know, Zhao Yun still wants to see if Liu Bei has the courage to commit suicide.


    When Liu Bei committed suicide, he committed suicide.


    After all, Liu Bei, who surrendered, was just a bird in a cage and had no good life.


    Of course, this is Zhao Yun''s selfish intention. He just wants to see what kind of person Liu Bei is today. As for Liu Bei''s life and death, when he was captured, it was impossible to be independent.


    Liu Bei''s hand, pressed on the waist double sword.


    Bang!


    The blade pulled out a little, but Liu Bei did not continue to pull out, stopped in the same place, the hand trembled slightly.


    The whole person has a struggling look on his face.


    "Sonorous!"


    At this time, a clear sound like the sound of the dragon, but Zhuge Liang has drawn his sword. The sword on his body is actually an ornament, but now it is pulled out and put on his neck.


    Seeing this, Liu Bei was immediately flustered and said, "what are you going to do, commander?"


    Zhuge Liang said: "it is impossible for Zhang Xiu and I to reconcile. From the beginning, I despised Zhang Xiu. In the end, he married his daughter


    "Later, I was loyal to my Lord and actively planned for him, intending to deal with Zhang Xiu and defeat her. However, whether it was the battle of Jingzhou, Nanyang County or Xiangcheng County, I was defeated. "


    "I''m a failure now."


    Zhuge Liang said: "a loser, in front of Zhang Xiu, is he humiliated by Zhang Xiu? I, Zhuge Liang, though a man of humble opinion, was born in a famous family. How can I be humiliated by a man? "


    "Originally, from the beginning to the end, I thought I would serve the Lord, and I didn''t regret it."


    "Today, I still don''t regret it."


    "Because the Lord has not given up at this point. I know my Lord''s begging for mercy is not to be afraid, but to fight again. Even the Lord chose to give up on me and choose to leave. Although I was lost, I didn''t regret my choice


    "Emperor, that''s what it is."


    Zhuge Liang said: "the emperor is merciless. I hope the Lord will let me go. That''s impossible."


    "Lord, everyone dies."


    "Either lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai."


    "Liang''s death is lighter than a feather, but he has nothing to do. I have empty ambition and empty ambition. In the end, it ended like this. "


    "I despise Xu Shu, I despise Pang Tong, and I despise Cui Zhou''s equal people. But in the end, Xu Shu became the official Minister of the state of Qin, which was the existence of the leader of the state of Qin. Pang Tong is also a minister of the state of Qin. He is young and has an unlimited future. "


    Zhuge Liang sighed and exclaimed, "I Zhuge Liang, it''s hard to reach my ambition!"


    Zhuge Liang''s face was full of loss, helplessness and despair.


    He won''t survive.


    Zhao Yun''s eyes were sharp and said: "ZHUGE Liang, your majesty has always admired your talent. Your majesty once said that you Zhuge Liang is just casting pearls in the dark. Although there are various misunderstandings between you and your majesty, I believe your majesty is still willing to use you. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhuge Liang laughed.


    In the laughter, it was sad.


    In the laughter, it shows the determination.


    Zhuge Liang said: "I Zhuge Liang life, how proud, how can serve Zhang Xiu. It''s a success for a man. Heaven does not protect and help Zhuge Liang


    With that, Zhuge Liang made a sudden effort.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade was cut from Zhuge Liang''s neck. The next moment, blood splashed and the sword fell to the ground with a crash. Zhuge Liang grinned, and his face was even more resolute, with only the remaining force: "fight again in the afterlife, afterlife..."


    At this point, blood came to his throat, and Zhuge Liang looked up and fell to the ground.


    Plop!


    His body fell down and he was no longer breathing.


    "Kong Ming


    "What''s the trouble with you!"


    Seeing this, Liu Bei burst into tears. Zhuge Liang was his most important counselor. Since he had Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei had a foothold in Runan County. But later a series of things, making Liu Bei heavy losses. But now, Zhuge Liang is brave to die, so Liu Bei is also very sad.


    Zhao Yun big sleeve a whisk, ordered: "come, convergence Zhuge Liang''s body, thick burial!"


    "Here it is


    Bai Ma Yi came forward and gathered up Zhuge Liang''s body.


    Zhao Yun''s eyes turned and fell on Liu Bei who sobbed. He put on a smile and said, "Liu Bei, it''s up to you now. Are you suicidal? Or surrender. Either way, I respect you. All in all, it''s in your hands. "Liu Bei''s hand is still on the hilt.


    It''s just, my hands are shaking.


    With Liu Bei''s strength in his hand, his Sabre rose slightly and raised a little bit. However, when half of the blade was drawn out, Liu Bei''s hand was immediately put down, and the long sword clanged into the scabbard.


    Plop!


    Liu Bei fell to the ground again.


    He has a tough character, but he is unwilling to let him surrender and die. Because he didn''t want to die, and he didn''t want to die.


    "I''m down!"


    When Liu Bei said this, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and the whole person seemed to take off his strength.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhao Yun burst into laughter.


    The impression of Liu Bei in his heart collapsed completely. Liu Bei, after all, is a greedy person.


    Zhao Yun took a deep breath, tut tut said: "once, Zhang Fei was willing to die for you Liu Bei, willing to jump from the tower of the city; once, Guan Yu met Ma Chao on the way to Xiangcheng County, and he would rather die than surrender to fight to the end; now, Zhuge Liang is also resolute to die. But in the end, one by one died, leaving you alone. Then you choose to beg for mercy. Ha ha ha This is blind. You Liu Bei didn''t do Yuan Shao''s business, which is similar to Yuan Shao. "


    Liu Bei''s face was full of fear and embarrassment.


    Zhao Yun''s words are in his heart.


    "Come on, take Liu Bei!"


    Now, Zhao Yun is not willing to say anything to Liu Bei. If Liu Bei died, he still admired Liu Bei and thought that Liu Bei was a real hero. But now Liu Bei has let Zhao Yun down,


    Liu Bei, a coward!


    The soldiers came forward and quickly escorted Liu Bei back.


    Bai Ma Yi was still going around. Where he passed, Liu Bei''s soldiers surrendered one after another. By this time, there was a cry of killing in the rear, but the flying Qiang army was following. Along the way, a Guli led the flying Qiang army to collect and surrender Liu Bei''s soldiers and detain all Liu Bei''s soldiers.


    Zhao Yun didn''t move on. He stopped to wait. In a short time, aguli had already followed him. He came to Zhao Yun and said, "General Zhao, all the prisoners have been detained. We have captured countless people in this war. "


    "Clean up the battlefield and then withdraw," Zhao said. Let''s take a rest in Duchang County for a while. Then, we will continue on our way to the north of Beihai again. We will go straight to Huangxian. "


    "Here it is


    In response, aguli arranged for the soldiers to move.


    In the middle of the night, after cleaning the battlefield, Zhao Yun and his party withdrew to Changdu County, and then stationed in the city for rest. After counting the losses and detaining the prisoners, Zhao Yunqing wrote the war report and arranged for the prisoners to send the soldiers to zhuxu County overnight.

 Chapter 1039

    Zhuxu County, military camp of Qin state.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s army is no longer under attack. Originally, Zhang Xiu''s plan was to destroy Cao Ang''s camp in one go, but Cao ang was so strict that it was hard to break the defense. Therefore, after Zhang Xiu''s continuous attacks, she finally stopped and the army temporarily rested.


    After all, there is Zhao Yun''s army.


    This day, near noon.


    In Zhang Xiu''s barracks, the soldiers have already begun to eat. Outside the barracks, Zhao Yun''s sentry troopers rush to the camp. When they see Zhang Xiu, they hand in Zhao Yun''s war report.


    Zhang Xiu took out the letter, looked at ten lines at a glance, and quickly browsed down. When he finished reading the letter, he couldn''t help laughing. He immediately ordered people to call Huang Zhong, saying that Zhao Yun won, Zhuge Liang committed suicide, and Liu Bei surrendered.


    Then, Zhang Xiu said: "Hansheng, you immediately arrange soldiers to shoot arrows at Cao Ang''s army to spread the news of Zhao Yun''s victory. Now that Zhao Yun is attacking Huang County, I''d like to see how Cao ang will deal with it. In addition, another group of soldiers was arranged to take over Liu Bei''s army in Changdu county. Zhao Yun left some soldiers behind and detained all the prisoners. "


    "Here it is


    As soon as Huang Zhong gave his fist, he went to arrange it.


    After Huang Zhong retreated, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and asked Wang Yue to spread the news of Zhao Yun''s victory throughout the army. When the news went on, all the soldiers knew that Liu Bei had been captured alive, and Zhao Yun was now going to Huangxian County, Donglai County, which excited all the soldiers.


    Because in the eyes of the soldiers in the army, when Zhao Yun went straight to Huangxian, Cao ang would not be able to defend the camp of zhuxu county with no force to resist. The next victory is foreseeable.


    A group of soldiers under Huang Zhong marched quickly, and it didn''t take long for them to come outside Cao Ang''s barracks.


    When the distance was about 60 steps, because of the small number of soldiers in this group, there was no action in Cao Ang''s camp. He didn''t beat the drum to inform all the soldiers. He just responded to the changes with constancy and was careful.


    At the command of the leader''s school, the more than 600 soldiers quickly made great achievements, bent their bows and arched to the camp.


    Sixty steps is not far away.


    In the case of not requiring the accuracy of the bow and arrow, you just need to use your strength to pull the bow. So a bow and arrow, easily shot into the camp.


    After three rounds of shooting, the school ordered the withdrawal.


    When the soldiers picked up the bows and arrows and saw the notes tied to the shaft, they were all curious.


    Many soldiers don''t know words.


    But when a literate person saw the contents of the note, he exclaimed.


    Liu Bei is defeated!


    All Liu Bei''s troops were defeated. Zhao Yun led the army, has left Changdu County, once again to Donglai county to kill. As the news spread, countless Cao soldiers were in a panic.


    When the soldiers were talking and their morale was unstable, the news also spread to Cao Ang''s barracks. When Cao ang heard the news, he felt nervous.


    Liu Bei is also a hero.


    Cao ang, who was quite familiar with military affairs, was captured by Zhao Yunsheng, and Liu Bei''s army was defeated. Under such a premise, Cao Ang''s dilemma returned to the original situation.


    When Cao Youjia and Guo angjia get the news, they are not ready to discuss.


    After Xun you and Guo Jia entered, the rest of the generals followed. They all got the news and were at a loss. They didn''t know what to do, so they came to ask for advice.


    Looking at all the people gathered together, Cao ang said in a deep voice: "you all know about the defeat of Liu Bei. When Liu Bei was defeated, our intention to block Zhang Xiu''s army on the back of Beihai Kingdom has been broken. What do you think we should do next? "


    "Your Highness, just fight!"


    Among the generals below, Dian man spoke. Once his father died in battle to protect Cao Cao. Dianman was full of hatred for Daqin, hoping to get revenge, so he didn''t have any hesitation and directly suggested war.


    Anyway, the situation is unfavorable.


    Fight first.


    Dianman''s words were supported by some generals in the army. However, major generals such as Xia Houyuan did not express their opinions, because under the current situation, a dead battle is not the best choice. Until the last moment, it''s impossible to fight directly, because once you fight directly, you will confront Zhang Xiu head-on, which is a sure defeat.


    Cao ang did not respond and asked, "Mr. Guo, what do you think should be done next?"


    Guo Jia sighed: "now your majesty is also looking for a way to defeat the enemy, but we don''t know the location of Zhang Xiu''s granary. There must be no chance to make a surprise attack. We can''t surprise Zhang Xiu, and we can''t beat her in the front. It''s a moment''s courage to take the initiative now. Once the fight starts, it''s very bad for us. We can''t fight to the death until the last minute. "Cao ang nodded.


    Guo Jia continued: "so now, I agree with the suggestion mentioned by Lord Xun. Now, we can only abandon this camp in zhuxu County, leave and retreat, return to Huang County, and make the final resistance in Huang County. As long as Huangxian is concerned, we will hold on. Make Zhang Xiu''s army return without success, then there is still a ray of life. If we can''t keep it, the state of Wei will be in danger. "


    When the other generals heard this, they were filled with righteous indignation and were not reconciled.


    But the problem is that Zhang Xiu''s military strength far exceeds that of the state of Wei. As a result, Cao ang could not stay even if he wanted to.


    Xun you said in a deep voice: "the problem we are facing now is that Zhang Xiu specially arranges people to deliver the news, which is probably intentional. He''s right. We''ll retreat. Once our army withdraws, Zhang Xiu''s army will immediately kill us and begin to cover us up. And Zhang Xiu''s army is closely behind. It''s not easy for us to retreat. "


    "It is!"


    Guo Jiayan said: "Lord Xun has a point. Zhang Xiuming can directly bring soldiers outside the camp, and then spread the news publicly. However, Zhang Xiu did not, so now, Zhang Xiu may have made up her mind to ambush us. So when we withdraw, we first withdraw on a large scale, and then disperse and break the whole into parts. In this way, even if Zhang Xiu ambushed the army, he would destroy at most a part of our troops. It is impossible to destroy all our troops. "


    Cao ang said in a deep voice: "Mr. fengxiao is right, so do it. First, a group of soldiers were left to guard the camp to prevent Zhang Xiu''s army from conquering the camp as soon as we left. Second, our troops wait until dark before they go on their way. At that time, even if Zhang Xiu wants to ambush us, it''s not easy to ambush us, especially after breaking the whole into parts. "


    "That''s the only way to do it," Guo said


    "Your Highness, the end will be willing to stay


    At this time, Dian man took the initiative to speak. He was not afraid of death and knew that the situation was unfavorable, so he was willing to stay. What''s more, when he can''t resist, he will retreat directly.


    Cao ang said: "so, it''s hard for you."


    Dian man said: "humble duty is not hard!"


    Cao ang stood up and said, "I''m going to order the soldiers to pack up and prepare for the withdrawal. In addition to that, give dianman 10000 troops and stay in the camp to defend. "


    Speaking of this, Cao ang stared at Dian man and said, "Dian man, after our army withdraws, you can keep watch. If you can''t keep watch, you will withdraw immediately. Do you understand?"


    "I understand!"


    Dianman grinned, showed his white teeth and said, "don''t worry, your highness. I know what to do. All in all, I just need to delay a certain amount of time. If our army retreats far away and Zhang Xiu hasn''t come to attack, then humble officers will leave the barracks earlier. "


    Cao Aung chin said: "you understand."


    For Timon, he is very trusting, and Timon''s age is not much different from him. They have been in the army all the time, so their relationship is good. Cao ang hopes Timon can survive and safely withdraw to Huangxian County, Donglai county.

 Chapter 1040

    Zhuxu county was stationed here, not only with sufficient fortifications, but also with sufficient grain and grass. Even if we want to evacuate, we must remove some of the food and grass. As for the food and grass that can not be taken away, we can only abandon and burn them.


    It took half a day for the army to pack up.


    At ten o''clock in the evening, all the soldiers in the camp were ready. All the soldiers to be evacuated were in place. As for Dian man, he stayed with the rest of the soldiers, ready to delay the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army.


    This is the plan today.


    By the end of the night, Cao ang did not delay any longer and ordered the troops to withdraw. The mighty army is no longer staying, but leaving the rear camp of the barracks quickly and orderly. Not only that, all the soldiers should keep quiet, and all the horses should not run in a hurry, so as to make too much noise.


    The army began to withdraw, but it was not the withdrawal of one hundred and two hundred soldiers, but the withdrawal of tens of thousands of troops. It was impossible to be silent and nobody knew.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu specially arranged sentries to keep a close watch around.


    After Cao Ang''s army left, the sentinel, who was watching secretly, ran back quickly first, then quickly returned to the camp to report the news.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered in her heart.


    At last we retreated.


    He waited for Cao ang to withdraw, then destroy Cao Ang''s camp in zhuxu County, and then defeat Cao Ang''s retreating army. After Zhang Xiu got the news, she ordered the soldiers to drum and raise their troops to gather all the soldiers under her command.


    Zhang Xiuxian first dispatched the cavalry of the Feixiong army and the liehu army, and ordered the cavalry of the two armies to attack quickly. They pursued the location detected by the sentry and killed Cao Jun overnight.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and followed closely.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu came out.


    In the whole camp, there were less than 5000 troops left, including Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang song.


    Zhang Xiu led the army on the way, and soon arrived at Cao Jun''s camp in zhuxu county. Today''s camp, even if there are Cao troops stationed, but there are not many troops.


    A torch burns, and the light of the fire dispels the darkness, making the camp as bright as day.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much and ordered the attack directly.


    The army launched an offensive, a fierce attack.


    Even Timon led his troops to guard the camp, and even his soldiers fought hard. However, under the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army, the army led by Timon, even two quarters of an hour, had not resisted, had been defeated, and had to withdraw in a hurry.


    But this retreat was covered up and killed, so that tens of thousands of soldiers under Timon''s command suffered countless losses. Timon retreated quickly, and in the end, he just left with thousands of soldiers.


    After Zhang Xiu defeated Cao''s army, the army entered the camp. Because dianman retreated in a hurry, there was still some food left in zhuxu County, but it was only a small part. A lot of food had been taken away by Cao ang.


    The army continued on their way, following the retreat of cao''ang.


    Because there are cavalry fighting in the front, Zhang Xiu just needs to take the infantry to pick up the leak. After about half an hour''s journey, the army led by him met Cao''s soldiers who were killed by cavalry and finally surrendered.


    Zhang Xiu ordered the soldiers to be detained.


    That night, Zhang Xiu kept detaining Cao soldiers who surrendered.


    In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Xiu had reached the border of zhuxu County, and all the cavalry who went to pursue him had withdrawn. No matter the cavalry of the fierce tiger army or the cavalry of the flying bear army, although they killed a lot last night, in the end, they failed to kill most of the retreating Cao soldiers, so that the Cao soldiers retreated one after another.


    Cao Huaxiu got the news last night that Zhang Huaxiu''s cavalry had retreated. At first, the retreat was a large-scale one, and then a small group of troops retreated, so that even if the cavalry pursued and killed, they could not completely wipe out the rest of the small forces.


    Rao is so. The number of prisoners last night was no less than 20000.


    Kill at least 8000 people.


    Even though most of Cao Ang''s troops have retreated, in fact, Cao Ang''s strength has weakened a lot and suffered heavy losses again. It can be said that Liu Bei''s surrender made Cao Ang''s overall plan collapse, and he could no longer keep it. He had to retreat to Huang County, even to Donglai county.


    This is the current situation of Cao ang.


    After rectifying the soldiers, Zhang Xiu led the army to the northeast of Beihai state and won the counties along the way. It''s as easy as a palm to capture Beihai with Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    Moreover, Cao Ang''s retreat, local officials also saw the general trend, so as soon as Zhang Xiu''s troops arrived, all of them surrendered and there was no resistance. There was no one who resisted Zhang Xiu''s army.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu approached Donglai County, it happened that the feiqiang army led by Zhao Yun and Baima Yicong were just in Donglai county. After entering Donglai County, Zhang Xiu meets Zhao Yun.All the way to Huangxian.


    Now the army of Zhang Xiu is invincible.


    When the army came to the territory of Huangxian and began to approach Huangxian, the news also spread to the city of Huangxian.


    In today''s Huangxian City, Cao ang, Xun you, Guo Jia and others are all here. In the temporary palace, Cao ang and his civil servants and military generals are all gathered together. But now Cao Pi, his family members, and even some of their families have left Huangxian County for Lelang county.


    This is Cao Ang''s arrangement.


    But now Cao Ang''s face is full of helplessness and decadence. It''s just that he retreated all the way, and the territory of the Wei kingdom was lost all the way. To this day, there are no more than one in ten, and only Huang County is still in control.


    As for the rest, they were all captured by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao Ang''s age is only in his twenties, and he is not yet in his thirties. But recently, he has been overworked, and his temples have a little white hair. Although it looks inconspicuous, if you don''t look carefully, you can''t find it. But now, Cao ang does have white hair.


    This is too much worry.


    Cao ang took a deep breath, looked at the people under his command, and solemnly said: "up to now, Zhang Xiu has been in the city. What should we do? We have less than 50000 troops. I''m afraid it''s not easy to resist. So, how do you think about it now? Just speak up and don''t have any scruples. I don''t even care about words like surrender. "


    For Cao ang, the current situation is extremely bad, and he can accept what happens.


    He wants to listen to people.


    It depends on what people say.


    As a person who had followed Cao Cao when Cao Cao was there, Xun you now has a strong voice under Cao ang. His expression is solemn, then solemnly way: "surrender and so on, certainly impossible."


    "I don''t have the soft bone to surrender."


    "But now that Zhang Xiu has been killed, I don''t think it''s suitable to continue to stick to it. Since the hinterland of the Central Plains can''t compete with Zhang Xiu, we''ll retreat and go to Lelang county. After all, Mr. PI had already taken people there. "


    "Now we go to Lelang County before Zhang Xiu comes first."


    Xun you said: "especially during this period of time, I have searched all kinds of data. Not far from the south of Lelang County, there is another place. According to some scattered data, it is a Japanese country that is not very civilized, just like barbarians."


    "We can go to Japan. As long as we have today''s troops, food and weapons, we will have no chance of counterattack. In the past years, in order to hold back Zhang Xiu and give the state of Wei a chance to earn a living, the former leader left a fight to death, which eventually weakened Zhang Xiu''s strength and won a short time for the state of Wei. "


    "Up to now, I don''t think surrender can solve the problem. We can only go to Lelang County, and then we can go south from Lelang county. That''s a chance of survival."


    Xun you gritted his teeth and said, "I don''t believe it. Although Zhang Xiu has won now, she can still chase us to the ends of the earth."


    Cao ang nodded, but he didn''t answer immediately. He looked at the others and asked, "what''s your opinion, gentlemen?"

 Chapter 1041

    Guo Jiashen took a breath and said: "I really agree with the evacuation. After all, Zhang Xiu''s strength is really too strong to compete with."


    "We can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s more than 100000 troops. Under this premise, evacuation is reasonable. But the problem is that it is not easy for the tens of thousands of troops belonging to us to make them willing to retreat together. "


    "Many people''s roots are still in the Central Plains. Because many people prefer to stay in the Central Plains rather than go abroad. "


    Guo Jia said: "this matter must be properly considered."


    As Guo Jia opened his mouth, Xun you also spoke again, saying: "as filial piety says, courtesy is the most important. If the people are united, even if your Highness has 10000 troops, he will be able to fight at sea. If the people are confused, even 30000 or 50000 people will be embarrassed to fight at Lelang county. Therefore, I agree with fengxiao''s analysis that we must choose those who are willing to follow. "


    After a pause, Xun you continued: "if the soldiers are not willing to follow, mutiny will happen on the way, and the consequences will be immeasurable. So the most important thing is to maintain stability. Stability is the most important thing. "


    As Guo Jia and Xun you opened their mouths, the rest of the people generally agreed with this proposal.


    No one can stop Zhang Xiu.


    Even Cao Cao, who is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent, is defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    What''s more, Cao Ang?


    In the eyes of all the soldiers, Cao ang was a little young after all.


    Cao ang saw that everyone''s opinions had reached an agreement, but he didn''t say much, because it was self-evident that all his subordinates agreed to leave Huangxian.


    Without delay, Cao ang immediately ordered all the soldiers under his command to assemble.


    Cao ang went to the school in person.


    The soldiers he wanted to take away must have left willingly.


    When Cao ang arrived at the school yard, he saw all the soldiers in the school yard. Now the whole army is in a panic when it comes to Zhang Xiu''s killing. They are all worried that Zhang Xiu will not be able to defend her.


    This is the consensus of all.


    So much so that the army is in a mess and its morale has already collapsed.


    The reason why all the soldiers are still there is, on the one hand, the timely payment of military salaries, on the other hand, Cao did not treat the soldiers harshly. Many soldiers, grateful for Cao''s kindness, did not want to leave, so they still stayed in the army.


    Cao ang saw all the soldiers, he was depressed, but in the face of all the soldiers, he didn''t show any. Even Cao Ang''s face was still full of fighting spirit, as if he was not affected by the threat of Zhang Xiu.


    Cao ang looked around, and finally said in a loud voice: "my sons, Zhang Xiu is approaching Huangxian. It is expected that no one in the whole army is unaware of this matter, and no one is unaware of it. "


    "Today, everyone knows that the state of Wei can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "The state of Wei is declining."


    "In such a time of crisis, you are willing to stick to it and work for our country. Cao ang is here. Thank you. Whether you are seeking wealth, stability, other things, or willing to serve the Cao family. "


    "All this is worthy of my gratitude."


    Cao ang made a deep bow and stood up after a 90 degree bow. Cao ang continued: "thank you. Thank you for your help. The state of Wei can last until now."


    The soldiers in the army were a little surprised.


    Although Cao ang loves his soldiers like a son, he is very good to the soldiers in the army and can get along with them, but Cao Ang''s great courtesy and thanks really surprised the soldiers in the army.


    No one expected that Cao ang would salute like this.


    The soldiers looked at Cao ang again, waiting for Cao Ang''s next words.


    Many have begun to speculate.


    He thought that Cao ang might Surrender.


    I also think that grass can fight to the death.


    In a word, all the soldiers speculated for the time being, but they couldn''t figure out how Cao ang thought about it.


    Cao ang continued: "we can''t resist Zhang Xiu''s killing, so I don''t intend to continue to resist. Because if you go on fighting, you will die, and nothing else will change. "


    "However, Zhang Xiu killed my father and king, which caused heavy losses to the army of Wei. In this life, Cao ang can never serve Zhang Xiu or Zhang Xiu."


    "Therefore, the king will choose to leave Huangxian county and Donglai county and go out to sea to avoid Zhang Xiu''s army."


    "No matter what the reason is, those of you who stay under the command of the king and work for him. Now, we have to make our own choice, which is to leave Donglai county with our king, or to stay in Donglai county. "


    "To stay or to go is to be voluntary."


    Cao ang said: "the king will not target those who stay, because those who stay have their own reasons to stay. Therefore, the king respects those who are willing to stay and those who are not


    "As for the superfluous words, I will not say any more. Now, I will choose. The soldiers who are willing to leave with the king immediately stand up and go to the right side of the battlefield. ""What I can assure you is that if you are willing to follow me, I can assure you that he will have nothing to worry about. This is my attitude."


    After that, Cao ang said no more.


    All the soldiers in the army began to talk. One by one, they whispered and thought appeared on their faces.


    Every soldier has his own abacus.


    They all have their own plans.


    So some people will choose to stay, some people will choose to leave.


    Each has a choice.


    Cao ang looked at the noisy soldiers below, but still did not interfere. He looked at the soldiers in the army. Now, one after another, soldiers come forward and are willing to leave with them.


    However, there were only a few soldiers who stood up. For the time being, not many of them were willing to leave. Cao ang didn''t say anything and let the soldiers choose.


    Little by little, a quarter of an hour is fleeting.


    There are more than 6000 soldiers who are willing to leave with Cao ang. These soldiers were all grateful for Cao Ang''s kindness, and they all had brothers and sisters, or they were alone, so they didn''t have much burden and concern, and they were willing to leave.


    Still waiting.


    Another quarter of an hour passed.


    Cao ang saw that the soldiers were gradually divided into two camps, but those willing to leave were almost fixed, with more than 8000 soldiers.


    They are willing to follow Cao ang.


    Cao ang took a deep breath and said solemnly, "now, I''ll ask you for the last time, is there anyone who left with me? If there is no one, then the number will be fixed. "


    There was silence below.


    No one spoke.


    Seeing that no one was speaking and no one was willing to stand up again, Cao ang told the soldiers who wanted to leave with him to stand aside. Cao ang looked at the soldiers who did not want to leave and cried out, "now, soldiers who do not want to leave. I will immediately arrange for your salaries to be settled, and then each of you will leave. All right, let''s go pack up. "


    The soldiers who did not want to leave quickly disbanded and went to clean up separately.


    Cao ang then looked at the soldiers who were willing to leave. He quickly arranged for those who were willing to leave with him to take all their armor and weapons. Then he asked the soldiers to leave Huangxian first and go straight to the port at the back of Huangxian.


    The army left first. Cao ang arranged for people to give the soldiers money and salaries. After settling the accounts, he asked the civil and military generals under his command. He didn''t say where he wanted to go. He just said that he was defeated by Zhang Xiu, so he was ready to go to sea to escape.


    This is Cao Ang''s words.


    He didn''t say exactly where he was going.


    Cao ang is still not reluctant, people who are willing to stay all stay, willing to leave with him can leave together.


    After all the arrangements were completed, Cao ang left Huangxian with Xun you, Guo Jia and other old officials who had worked for Cao Cao. He went all the way north, first to the north entrance of Huangxian.


    This is to leave early.


    In fact, all the civil servants under Cao Cao, especially those who belonged to Cao Cao, followed Cao ang. As for some honest officials, they stayed and did not leave with Cao ang.


    Cao ang didn''t care.


    He only needs to be loyal to the people he is loyal to in the Wei Dynasty.


    I can''t control the rest.


    When Cao ang was far away from Huangxian, the army led by Zhang Xiu came to the outside of Huangxian.

 Chapter 1042

    When the army led by Zhang Xiu arrived in Huangxian, it left an empty Huangxian, because when Cao ang left with the army, he not only took food, equipment and weapons, but also took everything he could.


    As for some can''t take away, is also should destroy, destroy, never leave a little bit to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu went smoothly and entered Huangxian county.


    At first, Zhang Xiu didn''t know about Cao Ang''s evacuation. After asking, she found out that Cao ang had abandoned the state of Wei and had chosen to go to sea. Cao ang such a choice, even if Zhang Xiu, is not expected.


    In particular, we only know for the time being that Cao ang is going out to sea, but we don''t know where he has gone. Zhang Xiu just orders the royal guards to make more inquiries.


    The rest, for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu also arranged for Huang Zhong''s flying bear army to sweep Qingzhou, and Ganning''s fierce tiger army to sweep Xuzhou. In less than three months, she pacified the whole territory of Qingzhou and Xuzhou.


    Since then, Zhang Xiu has won the whole territory of Yangzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and the whole Central Plains and the whole southern territory have been under Zhang Xiu''s control, leaving only Jizhou and Youzhou in the north.


    At the beginning of August, Zhang Xiu led a large army from Huangxian county to Yanzhou East County. However, even if Zhang Xiu sent troops, she left Huang Zhong''s flying bear army in Donglai County of Qingzhou.


    Because Cao ang left quickly.


    Cao Ang''s main forces have not been exterminated. If the army is not left behind, what if Cao ang is killed again? So this time Zhang Xiu went north, leaving Huang Zhong stationed in Donglai county.


    As a matter of fact, for Zhang Xiu, it would not take much troops to destroy Yuan Shao.


    After all, Yuan Shao is not strong.


    The troops of Zhang Ya, Gan Ning and a Guli are at least close to 100000 people. It is not particularly difficult for these 100000 people to deal with Yuan Shao.


    In September, the army led by Zhang Xiu had already entered the territory of Dongjun and started to go to the border of Dongjun. This news soon spread to Jin and Yecheng.


    Today, Yuan Shao''s capital is still in Yecheng.


    The last time Yuan Shao was in crisis, he heard yuan Shang''s suggestion and was ready to move his capital to Zhongshan. But later, Yuan Shang put forward the proposal of becoming a minister, just as Zhang Xiu accepted his proposal, so Yuan Shao still did not leave Yecheng and stayed in Yecheng.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army entered the Dongjun border instead of withdrawing to Chang''an, Yuan Shao became nervous.


    He was immediately ready to call together his advisers.


    But all of a sudden, he found that he could not find a counselor to discuss, because his six counselors, Jushi, Tianfeng, Shenpei, Fengji, Guotu and Xuyou, are all gone now, and he has no confidant.


    This made Yuan Shao extremely helpless.


    Yuan Shao thought about it in his heart, and then said, "come and call the prince to the palace."


    "Here it is


    I''d like to send an order immediately.


    Less than two quarters of an hour, Yuan Shang had rushed in and bowed to Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shao said, "do you know about Zhang Xiu''s arrival in Dongjun?"


    "I see!"


    Yuan Shang nodded and answered.


    Yuan shaodao: "what do you think?"


    After thinking about it, Yuan Shang replied, "my father, my son thinks that this is not a very big thing. After all, Zhang Xiu only led the army to the border of Dongjun, and it''s not clear why. We rashly take counter measures, but it is easy to lead to conflicts. "


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao looked very impatient. He put his hands on the desk in front of him. With an angry look, he yelled: "bastard, you can''t tell Zhang Xiu''s action clearly. But in case, Zhang Xiu suddenly kills people in our country, what do you take to resist? If Cao Wei and Sun Wu had been destroyed, Zhang Xiu would not have let us go. "


    Speaking of this, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and said, "this damned Cao ang is really not beaten. Zhang Xiugang led his troops to the state of Wei, and Cao ang was defeated directly, even Liu Bei. "


    Yuan Shang said, "father, what shall we do now?"


    Yuan Shao said, "now, we have three things to do."


    Yuan Shang said, "please give me your orders!"


    Yuan Shao said: "first of all, you immediately arrange the envoys to go to the East County border to test Zhang Xiu''s situation. At the same time, he once again told Zhang Xiu that China''s state of Jin was his vassal state of the Qin Dynasty, and hoped that Zhang Xiu would not attack China''s state of Jin. "


    Yuan Shang said, "I understand."


    Yuan Shao continued: "the second thing is to mobilize troops and hoard at the border of dangyin county and Dongjun county. Once Zhang Xiu''s army is killed, we can immediately send troops to resist. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s army will be killed, and we will be unprepared for nothing, and it will be difficult to respond in time. "


    "Here it is


    Yuan Shang replied again.


    Yuan Shao said, "third, we are going to move the capital. Before that, Zhang Xiu didn''t move her capital to Zhongshan state and didn''t retreat because she was in Cao Wei. Therefore, after we became ministers to Zhang Xiu, there was no danger. But now, it''s different. On the part of our country, it is likely to be dangerous. So we have to retreat. "Yuan Shang said: "my father is wise. I''ll arrange it now. I''m sure I''ll arrange it properly."


    "Go


    Yuan Shao waved his hand.


    For Yuan Shao, he now feels that the situation is extremely urgent and has reached the critical moment of life and death.


    He has to be ready.


    Yuan Shao''s heart, is not willing to fight with Zhang Xiu, because Zhang Xiu can not win, also can not provoke Zhang Xiu. But the problem is, he does not provoke Zhang Xiu, he does not attack Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu does not necessarily not attack him, so we must do enough preparation. When Yuan Shang went out, he had a lot on his mind. There were too many things to deal with.


    And once such an arrangement is made, the whole state of Jin will immediately become nervous.


    Just as Yuan Shang came to the door of the main hall and was about to go out, Yuan Shao''s voice came from behind him: "wait a minute!"


    Yuan Shang turned around and said respectfully, "what else can my father tell me?"


    Yuan Shaochen said in a voice: "I mentioned asking Gongsun Zan for help before. I have considered your suggestion, but it is still reasonable. Now in this situation, our own strength alone can''t stop Zhang Xiu. So you can arrange the envoys to go north to Youzhou and ask Gongsun Zan for help. We in the state of Jin are willing to resolve the conflict with Gongsun Zan and promote the alliance between the two sides. "


    Yuan Shang was a little surprised. He did not expect that Yuan Shao would agree to this arrangement.


    After all, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan had hatred.


    Yuan Shao said, "the alliance with Gongsun Zan should not be delayed. It must be arranged as soon as possible. It''s too late. We don''t have much time. Once Zhang Xiu suddenly attacks, we will be in trouble. "


    Yuan Shangdao: "father Huang rest assured, son minister immediately deal with."


    "Go


    Yuan Shao waved his hand.


    After bowing and bowing, Yuan Shang turned and stepped down.


    Yuan Shao looks at Yuan Shang''s back and rubs his sour face. His white hair, thin face and big bags under his eyes all show Yuan Shao''s old age.


    Yuan Shao is old!


    Today''s Yuan Shao is not only old in body, but also a man with a strong heart. He is just a man who wants to protect himself and continue to enjoy himself.


    This is Yuan Shao now.


    However, to Yuan Shao himself, he was not aware of it. He still thought that he was the emperor, the emperor and the supreme.

 Chapter 1043

    When Yuan Shang returned to the prince''s residence, he called his staff to discuss the matter.


    Now yuan Shang''s aide, Yang Xiao, is from Yecheng, not from a big family, but from a poor family.


    Because of Yuan Shang''s appreciation, he had a place in the prince''s mansion. Before that, the three strategies yuan Shang gave Yuan Shao were Yang Xiao''s suggestions, and then yuan Shang told Yuan Shao.


    Yuan Shang looked at Yang Xiao and quickly said four things yuan Shaofen had told him. Finally, he said, "military strategist, father Huang is now ready to move the capital, and he is also ready to make an alliance with Gongsun Zan. What do you think of this?"


    Yang Xiao was in his early thirties, dressed in a white robe and with outstanding temperament. With a smile, he said: "prince, in the current situation, it''s extremely right to ask Gongsun Zan for help and move the capital. As for the deployment of troops to prepare to resist, as well as sending envoys to see Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu to explore whether to attack, are feasible


    Yuan Shang said, "that''s it."


    "Yes!"


    Yang Xiao nodded and answered.


    After a pause, Yang Xiao said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, it must be inappropriate to go to the East County border to see Zhang Xiu and try out Zhang Xiu. There is no one who is good at dealing with emergencies. I''m willing to go there in person. "


    Yuan Shang said: "but if there''s something wrong with your going, it''s not good."


    Yang Xiao said: "if the two armies don''t kill the emissary when they fight, Zhang Xiu will not detain or kill his humble position. Therefore, the security of humble duty should be safe. Now, it''s time to test Zhang Xiu. "


    Yuan Shang said: "in that case, it''s just for the military division to go, but remember to pay attention to safety."


    "Don''t be too humble!"


    Yang Xiao bowed down.


    Yuan Shang successively issued orders to mobilize troops to the border and then prepare to move the capital. He also sent envoys to the north to meet Gongsun Zan and discuss the alliance.


    Yang Xiao also left Yecheng, all the way south, to the south of the East County border.


    When Yang Xiao entered the border of Dongjun, he soon arrived at the place where Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed. He reported his identity and entered the barracks smoothly. He met Zhang Xiu in the Chinese army tent.


    After his salute, Yang Xiao said, "I''m going to visit the emperor of Qin in Xiayang Xiao. One of them is to congratulate the great Qin Dynasty on the destruction of Cao Wei, and to visit Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places. The second is that after the Qin emperor exterminated Cao Wei, troops were stationed at the border of Dongjun. Does that mean that the great Qin was not willing to accept Jin and was ready to destroy Jin? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "where is this? Yuan Shao is my son and Jin is my son. How can I attack Jin. Yang Xiao, let Yuan Shao rest assured and don''t worry. "


    Yang Xiao listen to Zhang Xiu''s words, how all feel can''t believe.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s army, hoarding in the East County border, once Zhang Xiu ordered, DAHAO can directly into Jin.


    This is the worry of the state of Jin.


    Yang Xiao said: "since the emperor of Qin will not attack the state of Jin, why not withdraw and leave Dongjun and return directly to Chang''an?"


    Zhang Xiu''s face suddenly turned black.


    He has a look of desperation.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "is it possible that what I want to do still needs the consent of the state of Jin and the feelings of Yuan Shao. You tell Yuan Shao that when I do things, I don''t need to consider Yuan Shao''s feelings. What I want to do is my business. "


    After hearing this, Yang Xiao felt sad.


    Zhang Xiu is so overbearing.


    But Yuan Shao in front of Zhang Xiu, as if a mouse saw a cat, not even a little bit of temper.


    This is the sorrow of weak countries.


    Yang Xiao bowed and said, "the emperor of Qin misunderstood. The state of Jin absolutely didn''t mean that. In the state of Jin, we just want to know about it and see what the Emperor Qin has planned. Besides, there is no other mind


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, you can go back."


    "I''m leaving now!"


    Yang Xiao didn''t dare to stay, so he turned around and stepped back.


    After Yang Xiao retreated, Zhang Xiu ordered people to call Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang song. Looking at the counselors around him, she said, "it seems that our troops at the border have made Yuan Shao alert."


    Jia Xu said: "no matter how vigilant Yuan Shao is, it''s useless. Next, we just need to wait for pound, Gao Lan and Chen Dao to send back the news, and then we can attack at the same time. This attack is to make a concerted effort to destroy the state of Jin. "


    For attacking Yuan Shao, Zhang Xiu had no psychological burden.


    This is what we must do to unify the whole country.


    Before that, as soon as the army arrived in Dongjun, Zhang Xiu had already sent orders to pound, Gaolan and chendao, ordering them to look for opportunities to attack Yuan Shao, so now everything is in preparation.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting for the news.


    Zhang Xiu talks with the public about the next step. After a while, Wang Yue enters and presents a letter. In front of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu opens the letter and reads the contents quickly.


    Zhang Xiu''s face flashed a cold color and said: "on the one hand, Yuan Shao arranged people to test me. On the other hand, he has begun to move his capital and retreat from Yecheng to Zhongshan. In addition, Yuan Shao set up an army at the border and arranged for people to go north to ask Gongsun Zan for help. Today''s Yuan Shao, is to take a comprehensive defensive strategyZhang Song said, "Your Majesty, what Yuan Shao has done is just like a trapped beast. He wanted to resist. But in fact, Yuan Shao''s strength alone can''t stop his Majesty''s army. "


    Sima Yi rarely didn''t agree with Zhang Song and said: "Your Majesty, today, it''s very close to the world. Yuan Shao can''t stop the army of Qin. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a sentinel came in and reported: "Your Majesty, General Gao Lan and General Chen Dao, there is a letter coming."


    With that, the sentry handed the letter.


    After receiving the letter, Zhang Xiu quickly browsed it. He had a bright smile on his face and said, "I just received the news from Gao Lan and Chen Dao. Now Gao Lan has sent troops to Wei county to attack the western territory of Jin."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Gao Lan''s reason is that our soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were attacked by the soldiers of the state of Jin when they were at the border, so they entered the state of Jin. After Gao Lan sent troops, the news reached Chen Dao, who also sent troops to attack. Today, the war has begun. The order goes on, and the army enters the state of Jin. "


    "Here it is


    When Wang Yue got the order, he immediately went to inform him.


    Originally, the soldiers in the army were all ready. Now Zhang Xiu''s order is issued, and the soldiers in the army immediately transfer their troops to fight on their way.


    Zhang Xiu was at the rear of the town, and she also set out for the north.


    With Zhang Xiu''s army going north, Yang Xiao was on his way. He wanted to go back to Yecheng to report the news, but when he left, Zhang Xiu killed him. When Yang Xiao got the news, he didn''t return to Yecheng immediately. Instead, he turned around again and came to see Zhang Xiu again. He met Zhang Xiu''s marching army and was finally brought to Zhang Xiu.


    Yang Xiaozhi asked: "before, when I met the Emperor Qin, the Emperor Qin repeatedly said that he would not attack Jin. But now, however, he bravely sent troops to the border of Jin, and the emperor of Qin turned back. What do you want to do


    Zhang Xiu said: "my army, led by Gao Lan, was stationed on the border of Jizhou. When patrolling, they were attacked by soldiers on the border of Jin for no reason. Now, I''m trying to get justice back. Yang Xiao, go back and tell Yuan Shao to order him to take the seal ribbon out of the city and surrender. Otherwise, I will break the state of Jin and burn down its ancestral temples. "


    After hearing this, Yang Xiao sighed.


    ''s attack is nothing but a fabrication of Zhang embroidery, but it is only that Zhang embroidery has the final say.


    Zhang Xiu wants to find fault. No matter what the state of Jin does, it can''t be solved.


    This is the most helpless thing.


    Yang Xiao took a deep breath. He knew that Zhang Xiu would not be willing to give up when she was in the army, so he didn''t stay much. He arched his hand and said, "since Emperor Qin insisted on this, there is only one war in Jin. I''m going to say goodbye


    He turned and left.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Yang Xiao''s back and doesn''t stop her from leaving, because the general situation has become, whether she kills Yang Xiao or not will not be affected. Zhang Xiu is a little curious, with his army killed in the past, Yuan Shao is the first world war or choose to surrender?

 Chapter 1044

    As soon as the army led by Zhang Xiu entered the border of Wei County, it was less than a day''s journey to meet the army dispatched by Yuan Shang. Yuan Shang''s original intention is to resist Zhang Xiu''s army at the border.


    However, the problem is that Yuan Shao was a counsellor in all the battles between the state of Qin and the state of Jin. In addition, Yuan Shao had been overcharging and abusing the people, so that the people lost their trust in Yuan Shao.


    Even though there were many soldiers in the army and they were well equipped, Yuan Shao, who had lost the trust of the people, could not let his soldiers use their lives or make them work as one.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, the Jin army did not resist. Instead, they surrendered to Zhang Xiu in a swarm. This situation makes the army of Zhang Xiu smooth all the way.


    When Zhang Xiu continued to advance to Yecheng, Yang Xiao first returned to Yecheng.


    However, when Yang Xiao withdrew to Yecheng, Yuan Shao had already left Yecheng and was on the way to Zhongshan state. Yang Xiao went to the north to pursue him. After running for a whole day, Yang Xiao caught up with Yuan Shao and his party.


    Yang Xiao first went to see yuan Shang and reported the general news. However, after listening to Yuan Shang, he did not ask for detailed details. He took Yang Xiao to see Yuan Shao and told him about Zhang Xiu''s killing.


    After hearing this, Yuan Shao''s expression was gloomy. He said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu ordered me to surrender. Besides, what else did he say?"


    Yang Xiao said: "the rest didn''t say anything, but now, Zhang Xiu has invaded on a large scale. Not only Zhang Xiu''s army, but also Chen Dao''s and Gao Lan''s army. Now our country is in danger! "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face changed again and again.


    He didn''t expect that he had become a minister to Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu found an excuse and killed him.


    It''s not moral at all.


    Completely abandoned the previous agreement.


    Yuan Shao''s heart is also flustered, even if he now retreats, but Zhang Xiu''s long drive to kill, for Yuan Shao, this is also a very unfavorable situation.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another sentry came back.


    With a quick look on his face, the sentry came to Yuan Shao and said, "Your Majesty, it''s not good. We arranged more than 30000 troops in the south of Yecheng to resist Zhang Xiu. All these troops surrendered to Zhang Xiu. Now, Zhang Xiu''s army has approached Yecheng. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s face was even more livid, and his eyes were full of blood.


    Today''s state of Jin is in turmoil.


    It is not easy to gather 30000 troops. But in the twinkling of an eye, all the 30000 troops surrendered to Zhang Xiu, and even the waves didn''t rise. It''s really amazing.


    "Newspaper!"


    After that, another sentry ran back quickly.


    This time, it was not one sentry, but two sentries running together.


    After the two sentinel stations were established, one of them turned over and dismounted first, saluted Yuan Shao with his fist, and then said, "Your Majesty, the troops of Gaolan in the West have marched straight in. All the 20000 elite troops stationed at the border have surrendered to the state of Qin."


    Another sentry followed closely and said, "Your Majesty, the army from the southwest came to kill us. When we got close to Yecheng, the 20000 elite troops we sent to resist also surrendered directly before the first World War."


    Gudong!


    Yuan Shao swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    70000 troops!


    He had a total of 70000 troops, but they were all gone, not even a little splash.


    This made it difficult for Yuan Shao to calm down.


    For Yuan Shao, the 70000 elite soldiers were almost all his strength. Now he has no more than 20000 people around him. It is extremely difficult to resist Zhang Xiu''s army with the strength of more than 20000 people.


    "Zhang Xiu, hateful!"


    Yuan Shao was gnashing his teeth in anger. His face changed again and again, which showed his anger. Under Yuan Shao''s anger, the whole person''s breath is unstable, shortness of breath, mood is depressed, chest full of anger, also full of panic.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Yuan Shao''s breath was rapid again.


    Today''s Yuan Shao is not in good health and has long been an empty shelf. Suddenly, he was hit one after another. Yuan Shao''s breath was unsteady, and his blood was surging up. He only felt that when his throat was sweet, he was spitting out a mouthful of blood.


    "Poof!"


    The blood gushed out, and Yuan Shao''s whole body was about to fall. Thanks to Yuan Shang''s quick eyes and quick hands, he helped Yuan Shao. Everyone panicked, but yuan Shang rushed to the right people. After a while, Yuan Shao woke up.


    But now Yuan Shao''s breath is even more unstable.


    He was even more depressed.


    Yuan Shang said, "father, please take care of the dragon. Our father is the backbone of us. If our father has any weaknesses, we will lose Optimus Prime. "


    Yuan Shao''s breath was a little short, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, kid, deceive people too much, deceive people too much!"


    Yuan Shang said: "father, now it depends on Gongsun Zan''s reply. It is expected that Gongsun Zan will have news soon. As long as Gongsun Zan is willing to help us, then we still have a chance to resist Zhang Xiu. "Yuan Shao also nodded.


    Now, we can only place all our hopes on Gongsun Zan.


    It depends on how Gongsun Zan decides.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, the soldiers came over and reported: "Your Majesty, Mr. Gu Yi asked to see you."


    Gu Yi, a scholar under the command of Yuan Shao, was ordered to go north to Youzhou to see Gongsun Zan under the arrangement of Yuan Shang, hoping to promote the alliance between the two sides, so as to ask Gongsun Zan to help Yuan Shao.


    "Xuan!" Yuan Shao said


    The soldiers went to send orders. Soon, Gu Yi came in a hurry. But the look on Gu Yi''s face was helpless. He bowed to Yuan Shao and said, "Your Majesty, Gongsun Zan refused to form an alliance with us and even refused to send troops. Gongsun Zan even said, "if we can''t stop it, Gongsun Zan will even send troops to attack us."


    "Damn, damn Gongsun zanpifu!"


    "To take advantage of the fire and rob!"


    Yuan Shao''s face was full of anger, because he was in trouble now, but he didn''t expect that Gongsun Zan would go down the well.


    Damn it.


    But after Yuan Shao''s anger, his heart was lost, because the current situation was extremely unfavorable. After losing 70000 troops, even if the troops around him retreated to Zhongshan, they could not stop Zhang Xiu''s troops.


    Retreat again and again, there is no way back in the end.


    This is the most helpless.


    On Yuan Shao''s thin face, an unhealthy flush appeared. He took a deep breath, then looked at Yuan Shang again and said, "prince, you always have your own opinions. What''s your plan to crack it? "


    Yuan is still bitter face, way: "father emperor, son minister is also powerless."


    Up to now, Yuan Shang has no way. In particular, the people are divorced from their hearts and morals, and the officers and men in the army are in a panic. Without the will of the army and the people, even if they retreated to the ends of the earth, they could not stop Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Yuan Shao sighed and said, "can it be that you have to surrender?"


    At this moment, Yuan Shao had considered surrender.


    If you do not surrender, you will die.


    Hearing this, Yuan Shang said: "father, our army is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. Now it seems that we can only choose to surrender. Because if we don''t surrender now, we must die under the random sword. "


    "That''s all. Let''s go down!"


    Yuan Shao is not willing to fight to the death.


    Even if it''s not the end of the mountain and the end of the river, even if it''s not the end of the road, under the current situation, Yuan Shao has lost his fighting spirit and is not willing to continue fighting.


    After all, he is neither Liu Bei nor Cao Cao, and he does not have the fighting spirit of Liu Bei and Cao Cao.


    This is Yuan Shao.

 Chapter 1045

    With Yuan Shao''s order, the army was no longer withdrawing and began to rest in place. Especially when Yuan Shao said that he was ready to surrender and the news spread all over the army, the officers and men in the army cheered.


    For the soldiers in the army, they are not willing to continue to fight, because if they continue to fight, they can only die, and they can not stop Zhang Xiu''s army. Therefore, the soldiers in the army are not willing to fight and would rather surrender.


    The army stopped. As time went on, after Zhang Xiu''s army took Yecheng, they went all the way north and finally got close to the position where Yuan Shao''s army was stationed.


    Now the army around Zhang Xiu has joined the army of Gao Lan and Chen Dao, and their forces have soared again.


    The number of troops, rapid expansion.


    In fact, the strength is also enhanced.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, Yuan Shao personally took the army to meet him, and Yuan Shao himself, wearing a crown, wearing a crown dress, holding his seal in his hand, was ready to surrender.


    When Yuan Shao saw Zhang Xiu who was riding his horse, he raised his heart.


    There was more embarrassment on his face.


    Yuan Shao was very disappointed to meet Zhang Xiu himself, but there was no way to solve it.


    The distance between the two sides, a little closer.


    Twenty steps!


    Ten steps!


    When the distance was shortened to ten steps, Yuan Shao lifted his robe and knelt down. Then he held his jade seal box in both hands and exclaimed, "Yuan Shao of the state of Jin is willing to submit to your majesty. Please accept it."


    The rest of Jin were civil and military, and all surrendered.


    Everyone on their knees.


    Zhang Xiu looked at tens of thousands of people kneeling in front of him. He straddled on horseback and looked down at Yuan Shao in front of him. He suddenly laughed and said, "yuan Benchu, when we first started war in the past, you were very high spirited. Now you are in a state of decline. Today''s yuan Benchu is really a pity. "


    Yuan Shao was even more embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, like a knife, poked into Yuan Shao''s heart.


    It made Yuan Shao resentful.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Yuan Shao, speaking of your atrocities in the state of Jin, countless people in the state of Jin were in trouble, and countless people were separated from their families. If people like you are still alive and can enjoy the splendor and wealth, I''m afraid that the whole people of Jin will not belong to Qin. "


    Brush!


    Yuan Shao''s heart was raised at once.


    What does Zhang Xiu mean?


    This is not to accept his surrender, to kill him?


    Yuan Shao said, "what do you mean?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what do I mean? I mean, the whole state of Jin, thousands of soldiers can surrender. I accept it. But you, Yuan Shao and his son, can''t surrender, but you can''t do it so easily, so you escape the investigation. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "do you remember killing people outside the imperial palace of Yecheng? Countless people died under the butcher''s knife of your father and son Yuan Shao. Countless people are dying. Now, I want to seek justice for them. "


    Yuan shaodeng became flustered when he was young.


    Zhang Xiu wanted to kill him.


    "No, no, I''ve surrendered. You can''t kill me."


    Yuan Shao tried his best to roar, and then stood up, then quickly stepped back three steps, and opened a certain distance with Zhang Xiu, and then yelled: "all the soldiers listen to the order, kill, kill Zhang Xiu for me!"


    His voice is hysterical.


    Unfortunately, there was no one behind to speak, all the soldiers still knelt on the ground, still did not take any action. Because in the case of Zhang Xiu''s strong strength, the soldiers are not willing to fight.


    What''s more, when Yuan Shao took charge of the great Jin Dynasty, he caused countless wrongs and caused countless people to die. Therefore, officers and men in the army are not willing to act.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene and immediately laughed.


    Yuan Shao has taken command of the immovable soldiers.


    This is what Zhang Xiu expected.


    In fact, the reason why Zhang Xiu wanted to kill Yuan Shao and his son was that Yuan Shao and his son made too many mistakes, which were deeply hated by the people of Jin. Countless people in the state of Jin wished Yuan Shao to die.


    In order to win the hearts and minds of the people of Jin, Zhang Xiu didn''t intend to leave Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang. If yuan Shang and Yuan Shao were not killed, it would be difficult to explain to the people of Jin.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yuan Shao, you can''t command the soldiers. If you commit suicide now, you can still leave a whole body and protect the dignity of the emperor of Jin. If you don''t commit suicide, it''s a public trial. "


    Yuan Shao was very embarrassed.


    He did not expect that he had come to such a step when he came from the yuan family.


    His hand in the waist sword, a sonorous pull sword sheath, there is a moment, Yuan Shao want to assassinate Zhang Xiu. However, at the thought of Zhang Xiu''s strength, Yuan Shao''s mind to kill Zhang Xiu is gone.


    Kill Zhang Xiu, that is to live impatiently.


    Yuan Shao''s hand holding the hilt was shaking. He didn''t have the courage to kill himself. But Yuan Shao took a deep breath, then looked at Yuan Shang and said, "Shang Er, kill me!"Yuan Shang sighed with a look on his face. He didn''t live enough and wanted to survive. But the problem is that Zhang Xiu is determined to kill their father and son. Yuan Shao can''t escape, and so can he.


    It''s the same.


    Yuan Shangyi gritted his teeth and pulled out his sword. Without saying a word, he stabbed it out.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the sword pierced into Yuan Shao''s heart.


    Yuan Shao''s body trembled, but he also used all his strength, holding the handle tightly, and stabbed yuan Shang with a sword. But when he stabbed out, Yuan Shang avoided, so that Yuan Shao''s sword failed.


    Yuan Shao''s eyes widened, showing an unexpected look.


    I didn''t expect that Yuan would escape.


    Yuan Shao opened his mouth to talk, but when he said that, his body shook and fell to the ground with a plop. Until his death, Yuan Shao''s face showed an incredible look, because he never thought that his son had avoided a sword and did not choose to die with him.


    After Yuan Shang evaded, he threw away his sword and knelt down on the ground again, saying, "Your Majesty, please forgive yuan Shang''s life. Please forgive your life."


    Yuan Shang hasn''t lived enough. He doesn''t want to die, so he kneels down to beg for mercy.


    But Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "a man who killed his father and knelt down to beg for mercy is worse than an animal. Especially in the past outside the Imperial City, the people who slaughtered people also had you, Yuan Shang. How can you escape? "


    "Zhang Xiu, I''ll fight with you!"


    Yuan Shangxin is not reconciled, step by step, go to the location of Zhang Xiu. But just as he approached Zhang Xiu, he saw a figure in front of him, and it was a sword.


    "Yes


    The sharp Epee fell, and the blade fell on Yuan Shang''s neck. In an instant, blood splashed, Yuan Shang''s head flew out, and Yuan Shang''s body fell to the ground.


    This is Wang Yue.


    Although he is now a certain age, his explosive power is not weak.


    Kill yuan Shang in one move.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the dead yuan Shang and Yuan Shao, she told people to keep their bodies together, because next, she needed to publicize the killing of the two people, so as to consolidate the popular support.


    After Zhang Ganning''s troops were gathered up again, they surrendered again.


    This time, Zhang Xiu is going to take it together with Youzhou Gongsun Zan. Because the whole world is almost peaceful, Zhang Xiu can''t leave Gongsun Zan alone.


    The world must be unified.


    While Zhang Xiu arranged for the army to sweep Jizhou, she led the army northward. When Zhang Xiu led the army to the north and continued to travel to the north of Jizhou, the news of Jizhou and Zhang Xiu''s actions were also found by the sentry of Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, and then quickly sent back to Youzhou.

 Chapter 1046

    Youzhou, Jicheng.


    This is the capital of Yan.


    Today, the territory of Yan is quite peaceful, and there is no war. After all, the battlefields of these years are mainly concentrated in Jizhou, Yanzhou, Jingzhou and other places.


    Because the state of Yan was located in the border, and Yuan Shao had never attacked Gongsun Zan, there was no war in Youzhou these years, so that Gongsun Zan''s days were quite peaceful.


    Although Youzhou is located in the border, it is a place connecting the Hu people and the Han people. There are a lot of merchants coming and going, so although Youzhou is poorer, its commerce is also prosperous.


    In particular, today''s Gongsun Zan has been called emperor, no longer the king of Yan.


    After Zhang Xiu became emperor, Gongsun Zan also became emperor.


    From the king of Yan to the emperor of Yan, Gongsun Zan is magnificent and has a leisurely life. From the beginning to the end, however, Gongsun Zan didn''t waste his government affairs as he used to. Instead, he made great efforts to govern. The strength of Yan state was not weak.


    Ji City, the capital of Yan state, is full of people.


    At the moment, outside the imperial city of the state of Yan, a middle-aged man is in a hurry to come outside the imperial city. He was tall, with slightly long cheeks, a goatee under his jaw, a smile on his face, and looked flattering.


    His name is Guan Jing, a confidant of Gongsun Zan.


    When Gongsun Zan was in charge, Guan Jing was a long history of Gongsun Zan. When Gongsun Zan became Queen, Guan Jing was also a long history of the Yan palace. Now Gongsun Zan is the emperor, Guan Jing has become the official of the state of Yan. He has been in charge of the power of the state of Yan, and is a powerful official of the state of Yan.


    Guan Jing came to the gate of the imperial city and told the soldiers to go straight into the palace. When Guan Jing came to the hall and waited for a while, he saw Gongsun Zan coming.


    Today''s Gongsun Zan is vigorous and energetic.


    After all, people are in a good mood at happy events.


    In particular, the power in his hands made Gongsun Zan quite energetic. Especially in recent years, the main reason why they occupied Youzhou was to suppress the ethnic groups such as Wuhuan and Xianbei on the back, but they also achieved good results. The foreigners were extremely awed by Gongsun Zan.


    This is also Gongsun Zan''s complacency.


    Jingguan, your majesty


    Gongsun Zan waved his hand and said, "situ doesn''t need to be polite. Sit down!"


    "Thank you


    Guan Jing bows to thank him and sits down.


    Gongsun Zan asked, "what''s the matter with situ''s coming to the palace?"


    Guan Jing said: "in reply to your majesty, the southern state of Jin was destroyed, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang were killed, and Zhang Xiu led the army, which had already approached the state of Yan. It is estimated that Zhang Xiu''s next step is to attack our country. "


    "What?"


    Gongsun Zan had an unexpected look on his face.


    He did not expect that in the blink of an eye, Zhang Xiu had already wiped out Yuan Shao and had approached the border of Yan.


    Gongsun Zan still didn''t believe it and said, "situ, Yuan Shao''s strength is not weaker than that of Yan. Even if Bingzhou fell, Yuan Shao''s strength still existed, with at least 100000 Jiashi. Even if Yuan Shao and Zhang Xiu fought hard, they would not be so defeated. This battle is too rare and too quick. "


    Guan Jing replied: "Yuan Shao really made a big mistake. On the one hand, before that, Yuan Shao became a minister of Zhang Xiu and called himself Emperor er. He wanted to dwarf Zhang Xiu."


    "This incident laid the foundation for Yuan Shao, who was weaker than Zhang Xiu. On the other hand, Yuan Shao''s literary and military officers have all joined Zhang Xiu, and he is no longer available. "


    "In the end, Yuan Shao divided his forces to block, so that he was defeated by each one. In the end, Yuan Shao''s troops were defeated, and Zhang Xiu''s army could no longer be stopped. "


    "In the end, Yuan Shao chose to surrender on the way, but after Zhang Xiu accepted Yuan Shao''s surrender, she killed Yuan Shao''s father and son to comfort the people of Jin."


    Guan Jing zhengse way: "just so, yuan Shaocai quickly defeated."


    "Waste!"


    Gongsun Zan showed disdain, said: "these years, we and Yuan Shao contest, he is still some ability. Did not expect that now, he was so unbearable, is so cowardly. It is a shame that the emperor of a country is willing to be an emperor to Zhang Xiu. The people of the yuan family are so cowardly and shameful. "


    Guan Jing said, "what your majesty said is true."


    Gongsun Zan continued: "when you come to see me, you mean that now Zhang Xiu is going to kill her in the state of Yan. Besides, we need to be ready for a war with Zhang Xiu, right? "


    "Yes


    Guan Jing nods and answers.


    Gongsun Zan beat the desk in front of him. After thinking about it, he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is very powerful and can''t be underestimated. Once upon a time, we were united with Zhang Xiu, but now, since Zhang Xiu was killed, I can''t show weakness. This time, I will have a good meeting with Zhang Xiu to see what he can do for me? Si Tu, you''re going to send an order to mobilize 100000 excellent soldiers under my command to go south with me. In this battle, you stay at Jicheng and take charge of the defense in the rear. As for Gongsun fan, Dan Jing, Tian Kai and others, they went south with me to meet Zhang Xiu. ""Here it is


    Guan Jing''s fist should be thrown.


    Over the years, Yan''s strength has been developing, and its national strength is growing.


    Under this premise, the number of people with armor in the state of Yan is no less than 100000, and their actual strength is extremely powerful. Therefore, Guan Jing''s view on this war also thinks that it has the power of the first war and that it can start a war with Zhang Xiu.


    As long as this battle blocks Zhang Xiu''s army, then Yan''s status will be as stable as Mount Tai. If this war can''t be stopped, then we should consider the way that can''t be stopped.


    In less than an hour, the army gathered.


    Gongsun Zan put on his armor and led his troops to the battle. He took a hundred thousand people to the south of Jicheng. In particular, Gongsun Zan''s strength should not be underestimated because at least 30000 elite soldiers are cavalry.


    When they arrived at the border of Youzhou, the garrison stopped.


    Gongsun Zan did not go south.


    He is waiting for the arrival of Zhang Xiu at the border.


    In addition, Gongsun Zan also arranged many sentinels to sneak into Jizhou to inquire for intelligence, so as to make a response. With the news coming back, Gongsun Zan had already made clear about Zhang Xiu''s troops. This time Zhang Xiu went north, her troops exceeded 100000, no less than 140000.


    This is a vast army.


    Even Gongsun Zan felt great pressure, but Gongsun Zan was not afraid. The 100000 soldiers under his command were all the best among the elite, and all of them were soldiers with strong fighting capacity. Therefore, Gongsun Zan had to fight even if he had few troops.


    With the passage of time, after entering October, the weather gradually turns cool, especially in Youji, which is located in the north and cold early. By this time, the army led by Zhang Xiu had reached the border of Jizhou, close to Gongsun Zan''s army.


    The two armies met and formed their own ranks.


    Whether Zhang Xiu''s army or Gongsun Zan''s army, they all set up their positions.


    Zhang Xiu rode forward, his eyes fell on the Yan army''s line-up, Lang said: "I am Zhang Xiu, where is Gongsun Zan?"


    "Here I am!"


    Gongsun Zan, dressed in bright silver armor, held his head high, raised his horse whip in his hand, pointed to the position of Zhang Xiu, and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, you and I used to fight against Yuan Shao together. Even, I once sent troops to attack Yuan Shao, but I was very kind to the state of Qin. Now you are going north with your army. Is it to avenge the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand that feeds the hand


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time and that time, the past situation, how can we get now to discuss. What''s more, in the past, your Gongsun Zan was so depressed that he was determined to die. I arranged Yang Xiu to go north, so that you could cheer up and make Gongsun Zan what he is today. As for the fact that you sent troops to attack the rear of Yuan Shao, you saw that it was profitable. If you can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s army and you have no profit, how can you attack? After all, you are also for the benefit of ah


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes narrowed and carefully examined Zhang Xiu in front of him. He had heard about Zhang Xiu for a long time, but now he saw her for the first time. In his impression, Zhang Xiu was young, with sharp teeth and sharp mouth.


    This is not an easy person to deal with.

 Chapter 1047

    Gongsun Zan took a deep breath, adjusted his mind and said, "Zhang Xiu, it seems that you are determined to attack."


    Zhang Xiu said: "all the states in the world are in my hands. All the states in the world are only Youzhou. This is the land of the king and the land of the king. Therefore, Youzhou can not be independent of Qin. Gongsun Zan, if you surrender now, I promise you the glory and wealth of your life and the peace and health of your life. If you want to fight to the death, you have to kill. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Gongsun Zan began to laugh, full of irony.


    He disdains Zhang Xiu''s threat.


    Since he came with the army, he would not be afraid of Zhang Xiu''s attack, and he would not be afraid of being attacked by Zhang Xiu. No matter what, he will fight to the end.


    Gongsun Zan said coldly, "Gongsun Zan has been fighting for nearly 20 years and has never been afraid of anyone. Zhang Xiu, your threat to me is nothing more than some big talk, not worth mentioning. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you''ve never been afraid of anyone, but a few years ago, how did you beat Yuan Shao so hard that he shrank in the army, even the outsiders disappeared, even the people around him were women and children."


    Brush!


    Gongsun Zan''s face was stiff.


    That period of time was Gongsun Zan''s most decadent and helpless day.


    I didn''t expect Zhang Xiu to say it directly.


    Gongsun Zan didn''t want to answer the question. He said again: "Zhang Xiu, the whole country of Yan is of one mind. He is not a soft guy like Yuan Shao. He is completely afraid of your attack. Even in the face of a strong enemy, the whole country of Yan will fight to the end. "


    Zhang Xiu also said: "you Gongsun Zan, say Yuan Shao so is soft egg. But even if Yuan Shao is such a soft guy, Gongsun Zan who beat you lost his armor, lost his ambition, and indulged in wine and sex all day long. You are not qualified to judge Yuan Shao. "


    Gongsun Zan was embarrassed again.


    Damn Zhang Xiu.


    Yuan Shao never mentioned the pot.


    Gongsun Zan took a deep breath. With a flick of his big sleeve, he held his head up and threw his voice on the ground: "Zhang Xiu, today''s war, our country of Yan will surely win a complete victory. You are only in the Central Plains, met some strength is not strong, in order to win. You''re here in our country now, and you can''t win any more. You''re going back now. You''re guaranteed to be invincible. But if you stay, if you lose, you will lose your reputation. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "indeed, the central plains are all weak people. Cao Cao is weak and Yuan Shao is weak. But Yuan Shao, such a weak man, such a soft egg, still beat you Gongsun Zan


    This time, Gongsun Zan finally lost his stability.


    It''s really Zhang Xiu who holds on to it.


    It was a headache for him.


    Gongsun Zan was so angry that he could not keep calm any longer. He exclaimed: "Zhang Xiu, even though I was defeated by Yuan Shao. But in the end, I survived. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the reason why you can survive is because of my help. Without Yang Xiu under my command, can you regain your strength? After all, you are a weak person. Gongsun Zan is not qualified to comment on Yuan Shao. Even if Yuan Shao calls himself Emperor Er, your Gongsun Zan is no better. "


    Gongsun Zan was so angry that he made a fist.


    Zhang Xiu''s three words are inseparable from Yuan Shao. Every sentence pokes at Zhang Xiu''s pain, which is really irritating.


    Gongsun Zan was so angry that he exclaimed: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to fight, fight. Gongsun Zan will accompany you to the end. The whole country of Yan is not afraid of you, Zhang Xiu. "


    He was completely angry, especially in this fury, Gongsun Zan said again: "everyone, who dares to fight for me to suppress Zhang Xiu''s morale?"


    He took the most direct tetany, since scold not win Zhang Xiu, then directly tetany, through tetany to let Zhang Xiu shut up, let Zhang Xiu see the strength of Yan.


    "Your Majesty, please fight!"


    At this time, Tian Kai stepped forward.


    Tian Kai is a confidant of Gongsun Zan. When Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao fought, Tian Kai was appointed as the governor of Qingzhou. He once established himself in Qingzhou, but he was defeated and fled back to Youzhou.


    After Gongsun Zan rallied, Tian Kai was the general under Gongsun Zan. Moreover, Tian Kai was in his early 30s and had excellent martial arts skills. It was at the peak of his martial arts. He has a yellow puma on his hip, a helmet on his head, a long knife in his hand, and is awe inspiring.


    Tian Kai raced out and came to the front of the two armies. He immediately called out, "who dares to fight here, Tian Kai?"


    Zhang Xiu''s reputation is well known.


    Tian Kai didn''t challenge Zhang Xiu by name, but by the people under her command. He fought loudly, full of momentum, but also with the air of killing, especially Tian Kai''s appearance, is awe inspiring.


    This added to the morale of the Yan army.


    Zhang Xiu saw this, but she laughed.


    Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others, after seeing his generals, have few people. I didn''t expect that Gongsun Zan had arranged for people to fight in the state of Yan, which was quite interesting.


    Before Zhang Xiu spoke, he heard pound say, "Your Majesty, please fight.""Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    Ganning also stands up and asks for a fight. For Ganning, he also hopes to make contributions before the battle.


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    Ma Chao also stood up and asked for a fight.


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    A Guli, Zhang Yan, Zhang jaw and others, one after another to fight.


    These people all know that there are no peerless generals under Gongsun Zan. Today, only a few Tian Kai have come out to fight, so they all ask for help and want to make contributions on the battlefield.


    This is their chance.


    Therefore, the people asked for war one after another.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the crowd, her eyes finally fell on Pound, and said: "so many people asked for a fight, they came first and then came. Pound was the first to ask for a fight, and it''s up to pound to fight. "


    "Thank you


    Pound was so excited that he quickly said thank you.


    He reached out from the soldier''s hand and took the sword. As soon as he patted the horse''s back, it was like an arrow from the string, rushing out quickly. Pound was a man of rules. Instead of attacking directly, he drove his horse close to Tian Kai. When he was less than ten steps away from Tian Kai, he stopped and said, "Tian Kai, pound will come to you for a while."


    "Nobody!"


    As soon as Tian Kai heard Pound''s words, he disdained to speak. As a general under Gongsun Zan, he knew that Zhang Xiu''s generals, such as Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Zhang Ren, Zhang Yan and so on, were pound, and he had never heard of them.


    Pound grinned with a ferocious look on his face and said, "no matter who is famous or unknown, it''s the best thing to kill you. Today, I''ll kill you and take you to make Wei. "


    "Rampant!"


    Tian Kai snorted and rushed to pound with his knife. The horse in his crotch is a good horse. The horse is fast and powerful. It is close to pound with one dash forward. The sword in his hand is swung and cut off immediately.


    "Kill


    Tian Kai drinks low.


    The light of the knife fell and went straight to pound.


    In the face of Tian Kai''s knife, Pound''s face was not impatient, his face was even more calm, and he swung the sword in his hand to meet him. There are no superfluous moves, no fancy attacks, and only plain frontal attacks.


    "Dang!"


    When the two swords collided, pound was very powerful. One of them was under the blade of Tiandao. Under the impact of the powerful force, Tian Kai''s swords fell slowly. When pound pressed down, the swords in his hand were slowly drawn out, and he was even more poised.


    As pound overwhelmed Tian Kai''s blade to the lowest point, he made another effort. The blade immediately drew out, and the blade turned in the air. The surging force made the blade as swift as thunder. In a moment, it had been swung up and cut down.


    The blade broke through the air, with a sharp whistling sound. When Tian Kai was caught off guard, he had reached the top of Tian Kai''s head.


    Tian Kai''s scalp was numb, so he quickly raised his knife to fight.


    But in a hurry, Tian Kai''s power of wielding his sword was not the same as before. After all, he was suppressed by pound just now. He didn''t react until pound put out his sword. He couldn''t accumulate his power for a while.

 Chapter 1048

    Under the premise of insufficient strength, Tian Kai''s sword lacks strength. When the two swords collide with each other, in a flash, the strength of the two swords comes out of Pound''s sword.


    Originally, Pound''s knife had already done his best to cut it down. He could not resist it. Therefore, under the power of this peiran, Tian Kai''s sword was torn and knocked out, while Pound''s sword kept falling.


    "Yes


    The blade fell on Tian Kai''s shoulder, tore his armor, broke into the flesh and blood, and fell from his shoulder. Where he passed, the flesh and blood flew and splashed.


    After a knife stroke, Tian Kai''s body, leaving a nearly one foot long wound.


    Tian Kai himself also fell to the ground.


    He was wailing in his mouth, and his body was constantly twitching. Just now the knife, not only left a foot long wound on his chest, has been rifled, blood splashing, Tian Kai only feel his body quickly weak down.


    He wanted to get up and go back, but he had no strength.


    I was convulsed with pain.


    Just like this, pound rode over, bent down, and cut off. The knife fell down and fell on Tian Kai''s neck. When it went down, it cut Tian Kai''s throat.


    After pound killed Tian Kai, he looked up at Gongsun Zan''s army. His face was sharp and his eyes were full of fighting spirit. He exclaimed, "Gongsun Zan, can pound dare to fight here?"


    "Dare to fight


    Pound was rebellious at this moment.


    Show the edge of others.


    Gongsun Zan looked at Tian Kai, whose blood had already flowed all over the ground. He frowned and clenched his fist.


    His original intention is to let Tian Kai fight against Zhang Xiu''s general in the first World War, so as to suppress Zhang Xiu''s arrogance and weaken the fighting spirit of Zhang Xiu''s army. Unexpectedly, Tian Kai under his command was killed just face to face.


    It''s really helpless.


    Gongsun Zan looked around the generals and said in a deep voice, "who dares to kill this Liao for me? To kill pound, I give him the rank of marquis. He will be promoted to three ranks, and the reward will be 100 Liang. "


    For the state of Yan, this is a heavy reward, because if an ordinary general directly has a marquis and is promoted to three levels, it is equal to stepping on the road of smooth official career.


    This is an opportunity.


    Therefore, after Gongsun Zan''s words fell, the hearts of the generals under Gongsun Zan''s command were already alive, and they were already thinking about how to kill pound in front of them and make contributions. However, the scene of Tian Kai''s fight with pound just now was also seen by everyone. They knew pound was not good at it.


    This is not an easy man to deal with.


    Gongsun Zan saw that the generals under his command were somewhat moved, but hesitated. He said again, "why, no one is willing to fight? In the territory of Yan, there are countless generals and brave sons. Is it a pound that scares you? "


    He said it was provocative.


    It was intended to be a soldier in the army.


    There are many honest and honest men in the north, especially in Youzhou. As soon as they heard Gongsun Zan''s words, they were all angry. However, Gongsun Zan''s generals did not act for the time being. These people are all human beings.


    Even if Gongsun Zan used the method of arousing generals, it didn''t have much influence on these old youths. On the contrary, ordinary soldiers in the army are the most affected.


    "Sire, villains are willing to fight."


    At this time, a soldier with a big figure, like a hill, stood up on the ground. This is a centurion. He is a general at the bottom of the army. Looking at the whole state of Yan, such a centurion was not qualified to meet Gongsun Zan.


    But this battle is an opportunity.


    "The centurion said:" the villain Dai Da, willing to fight


    Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice, "good. I''m looking forward to your victory. As long as you can come back with Pound''s head in your hand, no matter how senior you are, no matter what your family background is, there will not be less of what I promise. "


    "Thank you


    Dai Da was excited when he heard Gongsun Zan''s words. He was born in an ordinary family, so that he didn''t have a name. He was named Dai Da after the eldest in his family.


    Dai Da is carrying a big iron backed knife. There are rings on the back of the blade. As long as the blade is waved, the rings will hit the blade and make a tinkle, which will affect the mood of the enemy.


    Even, it leads to the other party''s confusion.


    Dai Da turned over and rode out. As a general under Gongsun Zan, if he can''t ride, he can''t. Dai Da''s riding skill is very exquisite. After he rushed out, the next moment, he was in front of pound.


    At this moment, Dai Da didn''t say a word, and he didn''t know what to say, so he swung his iron back sword and cut it down.


    It''s a fierce sword.


    Its offensive is extremely rapid.


    Dai Da looks honest, honest and honest, but when he goes to the battlefield, his eyes are like the fierce eyes of local dogs, as if he wants to choose people."Ding! Ding


    The ring struck and the blade fell.


    Pound didn''t look down on each other just because they were not famous. On the contrary, pound played with a spirit of 12 points. Because this battle was carried out in front of hundreds of thousands of troops of Qin state, he had to win and show his strength in front of all the Qin troops.


    It has to be beautiful to win.


    Pound''s attack was fierce.


    "Dang!"


    Two swords collide.


    For a moment, it was a fight.


    Pound was a little surprised. He didn''t expect that Gongsun Zan could still have someone who was equal to him, and the other side''s reputation was unlimited. He didn''t know who it was. But pound was surprised, but he kept on attacking quickly.


    Pound is faster than a knife.


    A knife is more powerful than a knife.


    Pound''s attack gradually gained the upper hand and was already under Dai Da''s charge. However, Dai Da''s defense, from the beginning to the end, was extremely strict, showing no flaws. Even pound''s fierce attack did not break Dai Da''s defense.


    They fought each other for more than 30 moves. Suddenly, after Dai Da broke Pound''s retreat with a knife, he beat his horse and made a retreat. Pound didn''t even think about it, so he ran after him.


    But pound''s eyes were fixed on the gesture of Dai Da Ti Dao, and his mouth turned cold.


    Is this a shot in the arm to kill him?


    Among the shooting methods, there is a saying that the return of the gun means pretending to be defeated and then suddenly counterattacking to kill the enemy in pursuit. Among the sabre techniques, there are naturally wonderful moves of the same kind. Moreover, Pound himself was proficient in such means, so he already had a judgment when Dai Da retreated.


    Pound is still chasing forward.


    The distance between the two sides, quickly close.


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than six steps, suddenly, Dai Dale stopped his horse in front of him. He twisted his waist and turned around. He had a big iron back knife in his hand, and the knife had been cut down.


    This knife is as fast as lightning.


    Even more powerful, irresistible.


    But at the moment of Dai Da''s cutting, pound had expected that he would lean back a little, and one of his side bodies would avoid the cutting. The next moment, Pound''s sword would be swung like lightning, and it would be cut out.


    The blade was sharp. At the next moment, the cold light flashed, and the blade cut Dai Da''s throat and neck.


    Dai Da''s head flew up under the impact of blood, and then fell to the ground. As Dai Da''s head flew out, Dai Da''s body fell back to the ground.


    Blood spattered. Dai was killed when he was killed.


    Pound straddled on the horse, the sword in his hand was still dripping blood, and the blood splashed on his face, making him more ferocious, like a demon.


    Pound pointed his sword at Gongsun Zan and roared: "Gongsun Zan, how dare you fight?"


    The sound reverberates in the air.


    Its momentum soars to the sky.


    His fighting spirit is incomparable.

 Chapter 1049

    The more ambitious pound is, the lower Yan''s morale will be. Because pound first killed Tian Kai, and now he killed Dai Da, even two people, which weakened the morale of Yan army.


    Especially at this moment, in the Qin army''s battle, suddenly, there came the mighty cry of the great Qin. The cry continued to ring, echoing in the air, one after another, continuous.


    Under such momentum, the morale of the Qin army was like a rainbow.


    As for the officers and men of Yan, they all raised eyebrows. Even though they were not demoralized, they were shocked by Pound''s strength just now.


    Pound listened to the shouts of the soldiers in the rear, with a smile on his face.


    He said again: "Gongsun Zan, how dare you fight?"


    Gongsun Zan''s face was livid when he heard that.


    He wanted to be on the stage himself.


    But now, he is not young. He is more than 40 years old, and his martial arts has begun to decline.


    Gongsun Zan was a member of Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao ''.


    Even if the spirit is good, but their own martial arts has become empty shelf, it is impossible to continue fighting. So Gongsun Zan was powerless. He could only face black and said again, "who dares to fight?"


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    At this time, another man asked to fight.


    This man was known by Gongsun Zan, and his name was Gongsun Hu. He was a distant relative of Gongsun Zan''s family and served in the army. Gongsun Hu is famous for his military strength. He has infinite strength in both arms. He is good at using two hammers and one hammer on the left and right. He can be said to be invincible.


    Gongsun Zan nodded: "Gongsun Hu, I''m waiting for your good news."


    "The end will live up to your Majesty''s high expectations!"


    Gongsun Hu heard Gongsun Zan''s words, he had already kicked the horse''s back, just like an arrow from the string. The two hammers in his hand, each weighing more than 30 jin, were swung in the air, whistling. If you are hit by a hammer, you will die or die.


    As soon as he rushed to the battlefield, like Dai Da, he didn''t say much. He just swung a hammer and smashed it down. The hammer fell, and there was a terrible roar.


    Pound had a more cautious look in his eyes.


    He summoned up his strength and went all out to attack. He swung his sword and hit it.


    "Dang!"


    Pound''s face changed slightly under the impact of the fierce force when the hammer and the sword struck, and his face was slightly dignified. Because after his sword hit him, Gongsun Hu''s hammer did not move and was not affected at all.


    Of course, there are weapons.


    Gongsun Hu has two hammers, which have a certain advantage.


    But pound did not retreat at all. He kept on attacking Gongsun Hu. In the twinkling of an eye, the two men had already fought more than 30 moves. Pound was more and more frightened because his opponent''s strength was not reduced.


    At least for pound, if he supports to one or two hundred moves, he may lose because the opponent is very strong. Pound still insists, he wants to find a chance to win.


    However, after repeated fighting, pound could not find a chance and a way to win. After pound defeated Gongsun tiger, he retreated and avoided fighting.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Gongsun Zan burst out laughing, his face full of complacency, and said: "Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, pound under your command is just like this, just like this."


    Gongsun tiger followed closely, also shouting: "Zhang Xiu child, dare to fight?"


    As a strong man of Gongsun family, Gongsun Hu has heard of Zhang Xiu and knows that Zhang Xiu is superior in strength. Now, he wants to challenge Zhang Xiu. As long as he defeats Zhang Xiu, Gongsun Hu is the first-class general in the world. No one can rival him, and even no one can match his strength. Then he is the first strong general in Dayan Kingdom and will be reused.


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    Zhao Yun stepped forward, with a solemn face.


    Now pound is defeated, stronger people must come forward, and Zhao Yun is ready to appear in person.


    Zhang jaw, aguli and others, but did not go forward.


    No matter Zhang Yan or aguli, his own martial arts are not as good as pound, so he didn''t take the initiative to fight. As for Ganning, his martial arts were similar to pound''s, and he didn''t ask for a fight at this time.


    "Your Majesty, we will fight at the end of the year!"


    At this time, shamoko took the initiative to fight. Shamoko''s martial arts, under the command of Zhang Xiu, is also very strong. He has a mouthful of Tribulus terrestris, and has few rivals in the army.


    Zhang Xiu heard the two people''s invitation to fight and said with a smile, "you two, don''t ask for a fight. Zilong was once the white horse''s subordinate general under Gongsun Zan. If you go up to fight, you will face your former colleagues. You don''t have to


    "As for shamoko, if you go out, you can win."


    "But Gongsun Hu wanted to challenge me, so I agreed to him. I''m afraid the tibia will not rust after a long fight. ""I''ll fight it myself!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkle with a strong sense of war. Although he is the king of a country, he also likes to fight. This is Zhang Xiu''s temperament. He reaches out his hand, takes the overlord''s gun from the soldier''s hand, and then slowly rides out.


    When less than 15 steps away from Gongsun tiger, Zhang Xiu stops moving forward. The overlord gun in his hand points to Gongsun tiger in the distance, and Zhang Xiu says faintly: "come to fight!"


    "Kill


    Gongsun Hu roared.


    He was already pushing the horse. The horse in his crotch came forward quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, he was close to Zhang Xiu. He heard Gongsun Hu roar. The hammer in his right hand crossed an arc in the air and smashed it down.


    A hammer down, the momentum is vast.


    Zhang Xiu is not impatient, not a bit anxious, and Zhang Xiu in the hands of the overlord gun, did not retreat, long gun like a stick, swung up the overlord gun, swept out in the air.


    "Dang!"


    Force impact, the sound resounded through the world, but also stinging the eardrum in general.


    Under the impact of strength, Zhang Xiu''s complexion remained unchanged, but Gongsun Hu''s complexion changed greatly. The hammer he held in his right hand seemed to be shocked by thunder. All he felt was numbness and pain in his palm, and the tiger''s mouth was about to tear. Even the bone of his right hand seemed to have suffered internal injury because of the violent impact just now.


    Gongsun tiger did not stop. His left hand rotated and the hammer fell down again.


    Zhang Xiu did not move and swung the gun again.


    When he hit the hammer again with one shot, Gongsun Hu finally couldn''t hold his ground. He hummed directly. His palms were torn and his bones hurt.


    Although Gongsun Hu''s hands were still carrying a hammer, his arms were trembling. In his heart incomparable shock, Zhang Xiu this strength, is simply too strong, he is not the match completely.


    Just Gongsun Hu has not made a response, Zhang Xiu is already a shot out.


    One shot is as fast as lightning.


    Gongsun Hu''s arms and bones are aching. Instead of carrying a light weapon, he can resist it flexibly. But the problem is that he has no time to lift the hammer to resist, so that Zhang Xiu''s big gun, with a puff, runs through Gongsun Hu''s heart.


    Poof!


    The gun was drawn out and the blood spattered.


    Gongsun Hu screamed, his body fell off the horse, his big body twitched twice, and there was no movement.

 Chapter 1050

    Zhang Xiu didn''t look at it, but fell to the ground. She was already bleeding and lost her breath. He held the overlord''s gun and stood in front of the two armies. The fierce scene and the clean scene of killing Gongsun Hu fell into the eyes of all the soldiers.


    The officers and men of the Qin army chanted long live the great Qin, and even more long live your majesty. In Daqin, Zhang Xiu was not only the real God of war, but also the emperor of Daqin. He was deeply loved by the soldiers.


    Because Zhang Xiu is invincible.


    No one is Zhang Xiu''s rival.


    The Qin army under Zhang Xiu''s command has great morale and high morale. But when the soldiers under Gongsun Zan look at Zhang Xiu, they all have awe in their eyes. In fact, the strength of Zhang Xiu is known all over the world, and everyone knows that Zhang Xiu is powerful.


    But the soldiers of the state of Yan had never seen how powerful Zhang Xiu was. But now, these officers and men of Yan state have witnessed Zhang Xiu''s strength through Gongsun Hu. They are all awed by Zhang Xiu''s strength, and their morale has been affected.


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes were even colder.


    Just the depth of the eyes, but it is a glimmer of fear.


    Gongsun Zan knows Gongsun Hu''s strength. It is not difficult to wipe out many generals under Gongsun Zan with Gongsun Hu''s strength. There are not many people who can resist Gongsun tiger, that is, two or three.


    But now, even a general like Gongsun Hu is beheaded by Zhang Xiu. We can see how strong Zhang Xiu is.


    Gongsun Zan suddenly raised his eyebrows. After the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty stopped shouting, his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu, disdaining to say: "Zhang Xiu, how can you be brave?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Gongsun Zan, why don''t you show off your bravery?"


    Gongsun Zan said, "I don''t care to do it."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''m afraid it''s not disdain, it''s not dare. Gongsun Zan is not fit to carry shoes for me in terms of wisdom. In terms of martial arts, you are like a three-year-old urchin in front of me. In terms of their respective strengths, there is a world of difference. Gongsun Zan, it''s a fool''s dream that you want to resist my army with your army. "


    Zhang Xiu constantly attacked Gongsun Zan to weaken his morale.


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes turned, and he was not a good person. He thought it over and said, "Zhang Xiu, you''ve come with the army of the Qin Dynasty. You''re going to surrender me. The whole country of Yan is indignant and ready to fight to the death. But in view of your sincerity, if you agree to my terms, then our country, Yan, can consider surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu wants to laugh.


    Gongsun Zan couldn''t surrender unless he was at the end of his tether. At the moment, Gongsun Zan has only damaged a few generals. The army has not been affected, and it still has the strength of the first World War.


    If Gongsun Zan surrendered, Zhang Xiu would not believe it.


    It was only Gongsun Zan who had a plot.


    But Zhang Xiu was not afraid, so she said, "Gongsun Zan, what are your conditions?"


    Gongsun Zan said: "if I remember it well, Zhao Yun, the former general of the white horse of Yan, is in the territory of Qin. In addition, he also set up the white horse Yicong to serve as the chief General of the white horse Yicong. "


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Gongsun Zan said: "as long as you Zhang Xiu, before the battle of the two armies, in front of all the soldiers, killed the white horse righteous subordinate general who betrayed our country, then Gongsun Zan is ready to surrender to your country. If you don''t believe Zhang Xiu, I can swear to prove it. What do you think? "


    The so-called oath may work for ordinary people.


    Because the people value the oath.


    I believe in oath more.


    However, for Gongsun Zan, this is not a big problem. The reason is very simple. It''s nothing more than an oath at one stroke. If you break the oath, you will be struck by thunder. Countless people have long died under the five thunderbolts. Therefore, Gongsun Zan didn''t believe it. He just said something like this, which is to let Zhang Xiu break her arm.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu burst out laughing and said in a loud voice, "Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan, I didn''t expect that when you opened your mouth, you wanted me to kill Zhao Yun, the chief general who was loyal to you, and your old friend who has made great contributions to you."


    "Zhao Yun, I have never failed you!"


    "Since Zhao Yun came back from shouxiao, the first thing he did was to go south to inherit and find you in Yijing. But Gongsun Zan refused to see Zhao Yun three or two times, and even chased him away. Finally, Zhao Yun came to serve me. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "your Gongsun Zan abandoned his subordinates, but said they betrayed you. This is really a pity. How could Zhao Yun be blind and have worked for you? "


    Gongsun Zan was black and angry.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth is really sharp. He wants to tear Zhang Xiu''s mouth.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "say up, you let me kill Zhao Yun. Ha, don''t say it''s the surrender of Yan. Even if the territory of Yan is expanded more than ten times, Zhang Xiu doesn''t sell her troops to win. "


    "In the past, I couldn''t do Zhang Xiu!"


    "Now, I still don''t know about Zhang Xiu!""As long as there are people, let alone Gongsun Zan, who is just the land of Yan state, even if it is a larger territory, I can rely on the concerted efforts of my officers and men to win more and larger territory."


    Zhang Xiu tossed a voice: "by selling his confidants, in exchange for victory, it''s all suicide.". Gongsun Zan, you deliberately put forward such words, only to alienate the relationship between Zhao Yun and me. It''s really clumsy of you to do so. "


    Gongsun Zan changed again and again, his expression was completely dark, and his eyes were even more indifferent.


    He was full of displeasure.


    When it comes to mouth, when it comes to defeating Zhang Xiu in mouth, Gongsun Zan has no such ability.


    Guan Jing hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, don''t quarrel with Zhang Xiu. Now, we are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals. Not to mention you, even with the rest of the people, are not Zhang Xiu''s rivals. Now, all we need is a war. "


    The rest of the people, and so on, have also been persuading.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth, they are now witness, this and Zhang Xiu bickering, is looking for abuse.


    Gongsun Zan was extremely unwilling, but there was no way. He finally took a deep breath and said, "Zhang Xiu, the army of Yan led by me is stationed here. You, Zhang Xiu, are now retreating to Jizhou. Nothing has happened to me. However, if you insist on fighting, you will die in the place where Youzhou and Jizhou border. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ll wait and see!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu shakes the overlord gun in her hand and says with a smile: "Gongsun Zan, my overlord gun has just been stained with blood, and has not killed enough. Come on, come on, how about another fight? "


    Gongsun Zan had a black face.


    Gongsun Hu, the most powerful general under his command, died face to face in the hands of Zhang Xiu. Under this premise, he looked up at the sky and avoided his sight.


    Now I''m competing with Zhang Xiu in martial arts. That''s why I want to die.


    Gongsun Zan didn''t talk much. He didn''t talk much with Zhang Xiu. He just withdrew from the army. With a flick of his big sleeve, he said, "Zhang Xiu, my Yan army is here. You can attack it."


    Zhang Xiu knows that the bickering is over, and it is definitely impossible to suppress Gongsun Zan''s morale again. So Zhang Xiu also retreated back to the front of the army, and directly gave the order to attack.


    Kill everything that needs to be killed.


    I''ve said everything that needs to be said.


    Only the first World War!

 Chapter 1051

    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and ordered: "kill!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the army that had already been in array had already rushed forward. At the beginning, Zhang xiulie''s tiger army was elite, mainly infantry, and rushed straight forward.


    More than 20000 infantry rushed out with high morale.


    The crowd was full of black and white, and there were shouts one after another. The officers and soldiers in the army were rushing, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. Now that they are on the battlefield, they have to fight. All the soldiers in the army have this consciousness, so they all have the spirit to kill the enemy and make contributions in the battlefield, so as to earn the chance to be a wife and a son.


    Gongsun Zan saw that Zhang Xiu''s army was coming, but he didn''t hesitate. He was also decisive in mobilizing his army to fight.


    The infantry killed in this wave are also more than 20000 infantry.


    The two sides fought for each other and soon met.


    The two armies fight together. Gan Ning, as the chief General of the fierce tiger army, drives his horse and raises his sword, and constantly rushes forward. He is the general of the army and the commander of the fierce tiger army. He should set an example.


    For Gan Ning, the commander-in-chief does not mean power, but responsibility and responsibility. Therefore, he rushed forward with his sword, constantly killing enemies and attacking, so as to urge his soldiers to rush forward.


    "Kill


    Ganning is still roaring.


    The sword in his hand, constantly up and down, constantly cut down.


    So much so that the killing continues.


    Before the battle, Zhang Xiu is not in charge, because the current battle, fighting has just begun. Zhang Xiu is just watching the battle in the rear. He has retreated to a slightly higher position in the rear to observe the fighting at the scene.


    As time goes by.


    Fighting, more intense.


    An hour passed quickly. By this time, the army under Gongsun Zan was gradually in a state of fatigue. After all, the fierce tiger army under Ganning is really elite and experienced in the battle. One by one, the soldiers fought bravely and kept advancing in the direction of Gongsun Zan. The situation was gradually favorable to the soldiers of Qin army.


    Gongsun Zan saw this behind the scenes, but he couldn''t help it. He immediately ordered to mobilize ten thousand white horses to fight against Ganning''s left wing. After the ten thousand white horses were killed, they moved quickly.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she also mobilized the cavalry of the fierce tiger army.


    Cavalry against cavalry.


    The cavalry of the fierce tiger army was no less than Gongsun Zan''s white horse Yicong.


    After Gongsun Zan''s Baima Yicong was resisted, he dispatched 10000 Baima Yicong to attack the right wing of Ganning. At this time, Zhao Yun led Baima Yicong and some cavalry of the flying Qiang army to fight.


    Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong is well-equipped and can be stopped by Reebok. In particular, Zhao Yun had a high prestige in Baima Yicong. When the two sides met, Zhao Yun''s irresistible momentum and Zhao Yun''s prestige in Baima Yicong showed up, which made Baima Yicong under Gongsun Zan''s command impossible to resist and no one dared to fight.


    The whole army is on the March.


    Gongsun Zan sat in the rear of the town to watch the battle. He looked around and saw Zhao Yun. As soon as he saw Zhao Yun bringing his cavalry to kill him, he was really envious of his enemies, and immediately became very angry.


    Gongsun Zan once highly valued Zhao Yun. He didn''t care how he faced Zhao Yun when he was sinking. He just wanted Zhao Yun to betray him, so Gongsun Zan was furious and ordered his soldiers to attack quickly.


    He also sent the last ten thousand white horses from Jingqi to the direction where Zhao Yun was, attacking Zhao Yun, intending to kill him.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she began to smile.


    Up to now, Gongsun Zan has sent out more than half of his troops, and most of his elite combat power has been sent up. Gongsun Zan is still in a weak position in the competition between the two most central infantry.


    Knowing Gongsun Zan''s idea, Zhang Xiu hoped that his cavalry would defeat Zhao Yun first, and then join the infantry to cover up the army led by Gan Ning, so as to win the battle.


    However, Zhang Xiu would not let Gongsun Zan achieve his wish.


    Zhang Xiu a command down, see Zhang Yan led by the black mountain army, quickly kill. As soon as they entered the battlefield and joined with Ganning, more than 30000 Montenegrin troops pushed forward, and Gongsun Zan''s infantry were even more invincible.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu mobilized the cavalry of Zhang Ya''s regular army and ordered Ma Chao to help Zhao Yun with his cavalry. Together with Zhao Yun, Zhang Xiu blocked the attack of white horse Yicong of Yan state.


    With such a wave of fighting, the battlefield has spread to the surrounding areas.


    More and more people are fighting.


    The fighting between the two sides has become a meat grinder on the battlefield. They have been standing together and killing in darkness. All people, have been killed red eye, have been abandoned everything, regardless of the rush to kill.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on Gongsun Zan''s direction. He is waiting for Gongsun Zan''s decision.


    At this time, Gongsun Zan was in trouble.


    If Gongsun Zan ordered the army to withdraw now, the army of Yan would be defeated like a mountain, and it would never be able to maintain the previous stable situation. If Gongsun Zan continued to resist, then the battle effectiveness of Yan army on the battlefield was insufficient. Gongsun Zan needed to continue to send troops, so he had to send more soldiers to fight.Gongsun Zan had no choice but to mobilize 20000 of his elite to fight.


    After these 20000 elite soldiers entered the battlefield, they joined with the previous infantry and resisted the fierce attack of Zhang Yan and Gan Ning. However, the combined forces of Gan Ning and Zhang Yan were nearly 60000 troops.


    Under such a force, even if Gongsun Zan sent 20000 elite soldiers into the battlefield, he could not turn the situation around. The fighting scene was still not good for Gongsun Zan and the army of Yan.


    In particular, the cavalry on the left and right flanks were also targeted by the cavalry of the Qin army. At the most critical moment, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao''s cavalry were really invincible. Bai Ma Yi of Yan state kept retreating, which was hard to resist.


    Gongsun Zan looked at the situation and clenched his fist.


    His face was full of dignity.


    He didn''t fight with Zhang Xiu. He didn''t know the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xiu''s army, so even though Zhang Xiu''s army was strong and far superior to him, Gongsun Zan still dared to fight. He thought his army had full combat effectiveness. But now fighting together, Gongsun Zan''s elite, has been losing, hard to resist.


    Gongsun Zan''s face turned black.


    Although sun Jingguo was used to flattering him, he was also regarded as Guan Zan.


    Seeing Gongsun Zan''s situation and the situation on the battlefield, Guan Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, the situation is very unfavorable to us. If we go on fighting, I''m afraid our tens of thousands of troops will be buried here. Zhang Xiu has damaged the army and can recruit soldiers from all over the country at any time. But if we have damaged the soldiers, it will be difficult to recruit again. "


    Gongsun Zan said, "what do you mean?"


    Guan Jing replied: "to your majesty, I think that the situation is unfavourable and it is meaningless to continue fighting. It''s better to withdraw decisively and then return to Jicheng for garrison. "


    Gongsun Zan said, "if you can''t keep it here, can you keep it when you retreat to Jicheng?"


    Guan Jing is dumb and speechless.

 Chapter 1052

    Gongsun Zan waved his hand and gritted his teeth and said, "this is a fight to the death. If you can''t stop Zhang Xiu now, can you stop her later? It''s unstoppable. So, we have only one war. In the past, Yuan Shao and I learned a truth in wartime. The more you evade and accept advice, the more you will be defeated and beaten in the end. On the contrary, the more you resist, the more you fight, but there is still a chance of life. We are not defeated yet, so we can''t retreat! "


    After a pause, Gongsun Zan looked at a middle-aged man who was nearly 40 years old, thin and with a good sense of immortality, and asked, "second brother, do you think I can win this battle?"


    His name is Liu Weitai. He is a diviner.


    After all, he was the second brother of Gongsun Zan.


    As a matter of fact, Gongsun Zan, like Liu Bei, also made friends with others. Compared with the quality of Liu Bei''s Taoyuan friendship, Gongsun Zan''s friendship brothers are of three kinds.


    For example, Liu Weitai, Gongsun Zan''s second brother of Jieyi, is just a tricky diviner. He often divines for Gongsun Zan. He even asks Liu Weitai to do divination for Gongsun Zan when he goes out to battle, as well as for every major event, to see whether it is good or bad.


    Li Yizi, Gongsun Zan''s third brother, is just a peddler. He can flatter Gongsun Zan and make him happy. Therefore, he is highly valued by Gongsun Zan and is now the king of Yan.


    Gongsun Zan''s fourth brother, who was a merchant, was the richest of Gongsun Zan''s brothers. This man is very helpful to Gongsun Zan. After all, he can support Gongsun Zan financially.


    These people, in fact, don''t have much talent.


    However, in the state of Yan, he was also in a high position and had great power in his hands.


    As soon as Liu Weitai heard Gongsun Zan''s words, he put a smile on his face. After thinking about it, he said, "Your Majesty, you have the image of a dragon, and Zhang Xiu has the image of a tiger. The fight between your majesty and Zhang Xiu is a fight between a dragon and a tiger. For a while, we can''t see whether we will win or lose. For example, now your Majesty''s army is indeed in a weak position, but in the long run, it is still unknown. After all, it is impossible to decide who will win the battle. "


    Gongsun Zan brushed his sleeves and said, "I''m not asking about your long-term struggle. I''m asking about your fight this time. What do you think is our chance of winning."


    Liu Weitai made a pretence and said, "Your Majesty, I''m afraid this battle is difficult. Zhang Xiu came with countless troops, which outnumbered us both in number and in fighting spirit. The most important thing is that today is the most suitable for Zhang Xiu such tiger, now is the most powerful time of Zhang Xiu. Therefore, we are afraid that we will not be defeated in this war. "


    "Ridiculous!"


    When Guan Jing heard this, he turned to Gongsun Zan and said, "Your Majesty, please don''t believe the prophecy. Don''t believe in the wheel of gods and monsters. This battle only needs to fight openly. If we can win, then we can save the throne of Yan. If it is a failure, then we can only temporarily avoid the edge of Zhang Xiu. "


    Guan Jing does not believe in the theory of ghosts.


    He doesn''t think it''s any good.


    Even though Liu Weitai is the king of Yan, Guan Jing still refutes him mercilessly. Originally, Guan Jing looked down upon such a person, but Gongsun Zan was very confident.


    Gongsun Zan waved to stop Guan Jing and said, "situ, if you don''t understand or believe it, I won''t force you. But there is no good way for you to win or lose this battle. It''s not too bad to listen to the second brother. "


    Liu Weitai was extremely cunning. Instead of directly refuting Guan Jing, he looked aggrieved and said, "Your Majesty, my younger brother has already studied this divination skill. He is devout and worships God, and can get the divine induction. Although I say so, my point of view has always been not to force others. If you believe it, it will be effective. If you don''t believe it, everyone has their own opinions and judgments. You don''t believe it. There''s no need to attack others like that. Just as I have never criticized Guan situ from the beginning to the end. "


    After hearing this, Gongsun Zan snorted: "Guan Jing, do you hear me? Don''t be jealous of a gentleman with the heart of a villain. What the second younger brother said and planned is for my good. If you don''t believe it, that''s all. However, there''s no need to criticize it so much. If you don''t believe it, it doesn''t mean that others don''t believe it, let alone that they can''t do it. "


    Guan Jing gasps for breath. It''s Liu Weitai who is cunning and makes Gongsun Zan stand on Liu Weitai''s side, and he becomes a villain.


    After Guan Jingqi''s death, he also knew that the current situation was unfavorable, especially the infantry force on the battlefield had begun to retreat. And Zhang Xiu''s infantry are advancing step by step. According to the current situation, Yan''s army will be defeated in two hours at most, and can no longer resist Qin''s army.


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty, retreat for the time being. Now the weather is getting colder. Zhang Xiu came from a long distance. In this cold weather, it is not easy for Zhang Xiu to attack. We immediately retreat, temporarily back to the rear Town, with the help of the rear City, resist Zhang Xiu''s attack


    After hearing this, Gongsun Zan''s face changed again and again.


    Even Liu Weitai said that the war could not be resisted, and Guan Jing was shouting. So Gongsun Zan''s courage to fight to the end has gradually faded away, and he has no will to fight any more.Gongsun Zan thought about it for a while, and finally sighed and said, "just withdraw. We will withdraw immediately."


    "Withdraw


    Guan Jing was ordered to go down immediately.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds on the battlefield.


    With Gongsun Zan, Guan Jing, Liu Weitai, Li Yizi and others withdrawing one after another, the army of the state of Yan began to turn around and withdraw. But such an evacuation gave Zhang Xiu an opportunity to cover up again.


    Originally, Gongsun Zan''s troops were not as good as Zhang Xiu''s, but now in this situation, they are even more unstoppable and countless people have been killed. The white horse of Yan state retreated from the beginning, and the cavalry who fell behind were constantly killed.


    For a time, Yan lost a lot.


    On the contrary, the Qin soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command, after winning the victory, constantly launched attacks, constantly killed the troops that fell behind, and chased and killed nearly six or seven miles away before the army retreated.


    The army counted the results of the battle and finished it after dark.


    The army encamped in the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu has placed a brazier in the tent to burn, which dispels the chill in the tent.


    At this time, Jia Xu came in with the generals of the army and reported: "Your Majesty, our army has won this battle. More than 20000 Yan soldiers were decapitated and more than 16000 were captured. The loss of Yan''s army is huge. Our army lost more than 7000 soldiers. With a loss of more than 7000 yuan, we have won a great victory, which is a huge harvest. The next attack on Gongsun Zan went smoothly. "


    Gongsun Zan did not have many troops.


    Gongsun Zan lost nearly 40000 soldiers in the first World War, or he lost more than 50000 soldiers in the fleeing state of Yan. For Gongsun Zan, such losses were enormous.


    It''s an unbearable loss.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if the order goes on, the army will rest here for a day. The next morning, the army went straight to Jicheng, the capital of the state of Yan


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu bowed himself to answer.


    The rest of them also left with Jia Xu, because now they still have to prepare all kinds of signals, such as awards and pensions. This is what we have to do in the first World War. Only in this way can we make the soldiers use their lives and convince them.

 Chapter 1053

    It was dark at night.


    The camp was quiet and many soldiers had rested, but in the wounded camp, soldiers were still wailing. After all, many soldiers'' injuries are too serious to recover in a short time.


    Especially in this winter, the weather is cold and the recovery of the wound is slower.


    There are wounded soldiers in barracks.


    There were at least hundreds of people in each camp, all packed together. However, some of the soldiers were wailing and others were talking. Fortunately, most of them didn''t look lonely and worried.


    After all, since the early years, the wounded soldiers in the army, who are not seriously injured and can no longer go to the battlefield, have special post placement, so that the soldiers can support their families after they retire. Even if they are too seriously injured and can no longer move, the army will give them a lot of money to ensure that the wounded soldiers will not return home There is a shortage of food and clothing.


    It''s a huge expense.


    But for Daqin, it''s all worth it.


    This is the fundamental reason for the soldiers to use their lives.


    If Zhang Xiu treats his soldiers harshly and ignores them if they are injured or disabled, then even the soldiers in the army are still effective, but they lack cohesion and centripetal force.


    But Zhang Xiu set aside some money to ensure the safety of the soldiers. Everything was different. The soldiers in the army were more loyal to the Qin Dynasty and willing to fight in the battlefield.


    While the soldiers were talking in twos and threes, they saw the door of a barracks. Suddenly, the curtain of the barracks was lifted and Zhang Xiu entered in person.


    After Zhang Xiu, he followed Wang Yue.


    This is Zhang Xiu alone to visit the injured soldiers, check the situation of the soldiers. But as soon as Zhang Xiu entered, she frowned slightly.


    For soldiers in good health, even if there is no brazier in the camp, it has little effect. They just need to wear thick clothes. But the problem is, these are wounded soldiers. The situation of wounded soldiers is different.


    Temperature attitude is not conducive to wound recovery.


    Moreover, the temperature in the camp is too cold, which makes it difficult for the injured soldiers to sleep. After all, people injured, resistance will decline, can not be compared with normal people.


    When Zhang Xiu just appeared, no one found her, but suddenly, a soldier found her and cried out, "Your Majesty is here. I''ll see you."


    There are soldiers to stand up and salute.


    Even if a soldier is injured, this is not a reason for impoliteness to the soldiers in the army.


    One heart for Zhang Xiu, it is extremely reverent, so a see Zhang Xiu came, must salute. But they were the wounded after all. With the movement of their bodies, they pulled the wound and made many soldiers groan.


    "Don''t move, don''t salute, just lie down."


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order.


    After Zhang Xiu''s life was released, all the soldiers lay down to rest.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the situation one by one and talked to the soldiers in the army. For these soldiers, Zhang Xiu''s simple words are just like a bowl of warm soup in winter, warm all over and full of fighting spirit.


    That night, Zhang Xiu went all over the wounded camp, he went all the wounded camp, found almost the same situation. Like ordinary soldiers, there is no brazier in the wounded camp to keep warm.


    After Zhang Xiu walked out of the last camp for the wounded, he saw that snow had already floated outside the camp. The snow had changed from the beginning of the floating flocculent snow to the goose feather snow.


    The whole world, in a short period of time, has become a white.


    At a glance, there was a vast expanse of white.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath of heat and took Wang Yue to the tent of the Chinese army. As he walked, he said, "you should arrange to add three braziers to each camp for the wounded. This matter, again inform Jia Xu, let him coordinate and arrange properly, even if it is to add brazier, will increase expenses, this is also worth it


    "Here it is


    The more the king got the order, he immediately ordered him to go down.


    After waiting for Zhang Xiu to arrange these things properly, she quickly returns to the camp. Now it''s snowing heavily, and the weather is getting colder. Although it''s not the coldest season, it''s freezing to the bone.


    The next morning, Zhang Xiu got up early.


    When he came out of the camp, the cold wind came to his face, which made his face hot, like a knife. For officers and men in the army, this is normal, because they have to train and practice every day.


    When Zhang Xiu looked around, it was already a vast expanse of white. When she looked around, she couldn''t see any other scenery, only a vast expanse of white was left. The mountains and forests in the distance were already layers of forest, wrapped in white.


    After the morning exercise, Zhang Xiu went back to the camp.


    After breakfast, I read in the tent.


    Soon after, it was Jia Xu who entered. His pale hair was stained with a lot of snow. When Zhang Xiu saw that Jia Xu was coming, she waved her hand to let him sit down in front of the brazier and warm up. Then she said, "Wenhe came early in the morning. What''s the matter?"Jia Xu said, "Your Majesty, there are three things to do when you come here."


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Jia Xu said: "the first thing is your Majesty''s previous order. In the camp of the wounded soldiers, more braziers have been added. All the humble posts have been arranged to ensure the supply of coal and stone for the wounded soldiers."


    Zhang Xiu said: "yes, the wounded soldiers are different from the soldiers who are in good health. They are even weaker and must be handled carefully. We have to be more careful in this matter. "


    Jia Xu said: "remember your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the second thing?"


    Jia Xu replied: "the second thing about my humble duty is that it''s snowing heavily today and the weather is getting colder and colder. It is quite difficult to attack Gongsun Zan. In particular, the more North we go, the colder the weather becomes. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "soldiers in the army, even if they are well-dressed, may not be able to survive. Therefore, the humble proposal is to withdraw temporarily and return to Jizhou. After the spring of next year, we will go north to Youzhou again. Now this battle has weakened Yuan Shao''s fighting capacity, which is enough. "


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while, did not answer immediately, said: "the third thing?"


    Jia Xu continued: "today''s military, even in the cold weather, there are still countless soldiers playing Cuju. Countless soldiers are keen on this


    "But in the army, there are also some cases of gambling. Many soldiers play football according to this contest and then gamble, which can not be underestimated. For most soldiers, gambling is not a good thing


    "If they lose clean in the army and can''t get money to go home, then some people in the country will be uneasy. So this gambling is a small gamble for pleasure and a big gamble for ruin. This is not a good phenomenon. "


    Jia Xu put forward his own analysis.


    Zhang Xiu also nodded, Jia Xu''s analysis is really reasonable.


    He knows the harm of gambling.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "we can do something about the withdrawal. We are now staying in Youzhou, even if it is a strong attack, but it will be a huge loss. It is better to withdraw than to do so. It is also excellent for us to withdraw to Jizhou for a period of rest. "


    Jia Xu said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    His heart, in fact, worried about Zhang Xiu great success, in case Zhang Xiu to risk the cold attack, but ultimately it is a huge loss. Then, it is not a good omen for a newly stabilized Daqin.


    After all, the states of Wei and Wu had just been destroyed. It took time to precipitate and eliminate the influence of Cao Wei and Dongwu. So Jia Xu thought that it was better to be steady.


    The best arrangement is to wait until next year.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "we really need to pay attention to the gambling of officers and men in the army. You order the army to investigate this matter, and if you find out, you will be punished severely. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is right. Punishment is one aspect, but it is not appropriate to block it blindly. Because blocking is not as good as sparing, not to mention small bets gambling, is also a small gambling pleasure, harmless


    Zhang Xiu smiles and says, "Wenhe has come up with a solution. You should say how to solve this problem."

 Chapter 1054

    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw, and his deep eyes twinkled with sharp light. He said slowly: "gambling has existed since ancient times, which is difficult to eliminate and even more difficult to cure."


    "In fact, all over the country, there are also gambling shops, many people specialized in gambling."


    "And in the army, there is such a thing. The solution is to ask your majesty to take over the matter and let the imperial court come forward and set up gambling bets in the army to entertain the soldiers. "


    "Moreover, since the imperial court is in charge, the amount of the bet should not be large. It must be small. In this way, the soldiers can gamble a little and not fall into a big gamble."


    Jia Xu said: "on the other hand, if there are special censors of gambling, we can combine prevention and control."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart and said, "it''s easy to say, but it''s quite complicated to operate. But there is a certain truth to what Wen he said. "


    In fact, this is similar to the future of football lottery and sports lottery.


    This is the official gambling house.


    The government is in charge.


    It is not conducive to control that the people below gamble freely. But for Zhang Xiu, if she could control it, it would be extremely advantageous for Daqin, even an opportunity to make money.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s meditation, Jia Xu continued: "Your Majesty, since we want to standardize, we must also standardize the matters related to playing football in the army, such as when to compete and when to open."


    Zhang xiudao: "you plan to come up with a fold, carefully sort out this matter, and let me examine and approve it."


    Jia Xu said: "humble duty, obey your orders!"


    Immediately, Jia Xu turned and stepped down.


    After Jia Xu turned around and left, Zhang Xiu was at leisure again, and Jia Xu''s work speed was extremely fast. In a short time of half a day, he wrote the detailed process clearly, and then sent it to Zhang Xiu.


    After reading it, Zhang Xiu discussed with Jia Xu and decided on the detailed process, which was promulgated immediately.


    With the arrangement of this command, there are not many waves among the officers and soldiers in the army. After all, many soldiers are just spectators. The only ones affected are those who set up private outlets in the army.


    But these people were annoyed, but they did not dare to speak. After all, this kind of thing, no one dare to say, once found, it is also to be dealt with.


    After everything is standardized, Cuju in the army is also standardized.


    After a day''s rest, the army retreated.


    When Zhang Xiu withdrew and returned to Jizhou, the news also came back to Jicheng and Gongsun Zan. Today''s Gongsun Zan has retreated to Jicheng garrison, ready to rely on Jicheng defense.


    Originally, Gongsun Zan was ready to fight Zhang Xiu in this cold winter. But now, if Zhang Xiu retreats, Gongsun Zan will not be in danger in this cold winter.


    Jicheng, in the palace.


    Gongsun Zan, Guan Jing, Li Yizi and Liu Weitai all gathered in the hall.


    Inside the hall, braziers burn.


    The burning flames dispelled the chill and made the whole hall warm as spring.


    Gongsun Zan looked around at all the people in the hall with a solemn expression and said in a deep voice: "ladies and gentlemen, although Zhang Xiu is retreating now, in fact, Zhang Xiu is only temporarily stationed in Jizhou. Wait until next year, Zhang Xiu is bound to attack again. Although we have escaped this year''s fight, there will be another war next year. How do you think we can resist Zhang Xiu? "


    All the people were silent.


    Everyone knows the strength of Zhang Xiu. It''s not easy to deal with.


    In particular, today''s Zhang Xiu has destroyed all the vassals in the world, leaving only the state of Yan. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu could not let Yan go and would certainly attack Yan again.


    Gongsun Zan looked at Liu Weitai and said in a deep voice, "second brother, you are good at divination. Tell me about the battle between me and Zhang Xiu next year. What''s the hexagram like? "


    Liu Weitai replied, "I''ll tell you. As soon as I got back to Jicheng, I divined a divination. What the hexagram shows is that even if we are in danger, even if we are going to fall into danger, we will eventually die and live. This is a situation in which we will die and live later. In the end, we will win


    Gongsun Zan''s face looked relaxed.


    It''s a good hexagram.


    But Gongsun Zan had a lot of trust in this kind of divination. Therefore, hearing Liu Weitai''s analysis, Gongsun Zan felt that this battle was relatively safe and would surely win in the coming year.


    Gongsun Zan turned his eyes, looked at the others and said, "what do you think?"


    Guan Jing suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I have a plan on the right."


    After hearing this, Gongsun Zan smiles, leans forward slightly and says, "you can tell me, what''s the ingenious plan that can break the deadlock with Zhang Xiu and reverse the unfavorable situation."


    Guan Jing replied, "report back to your majesty, last time we fought with Zhang Xiu on the border. The loss of nearly half of our troops will be detrimental to our next war. "


    "But your majesty has high prestige among the northern Hu people. No matter the people of Wuhuan, Xianbei or other nationalities, they are all in awe of your majesty. ""Even some of the Hu people of the tribe are courting their majesty. So I suggest that your majesty arrange people to go north and inform the people of Wuhuan, Xianbei and other tribes to send troops to help them. "


    "Zhang Xiu, no matter to Wuhuan people or Xianbei people, will not stay. After all, with the Xiongnu and Qiang people''s rebellion ahead, the Wuhuan and Xianbei people are certainly willing to send troops to help. "


    Guan Jing looks wise and puts forward his analysis.


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes brightened when he heard it.


    This is what he didn''t expect.


    In recent years, Gongsun Zan sent troops from time to time to recruit Wuhuan, Xianbei and other tribes. He was a Hu people who had not dared to fight Gongsun Zan.


    Now Zhang Xiu''s killing is the time to mobilize these Wuhuan and Xianbei people to fight.


    Gongsun Zan praised him and said, "what situ said is true. This matter will be dealt with immediately. You arrange the envoys to go to the tribes as soon as possible, and ask them to send troops to help me resist Zhang Xiu''s army. As long as they resist the army of Zhang Xiu, then I will be generous in return. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing bowed down.


    After a pause, Guan Jing continued: "Your Majesty, in addition, in order to better resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army, I think that with today''s forces, it is certainly not conducive to resist Zhang Xiu. At least in terms of the number of troops, we are still at a disadvantage. Therefore, we should recruit more soldiers and prepare to fight with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Sure!"


    Gongsun Zan answered without hesitation.


    When it comes to conscription, Gongsun Zan also knows that it is crucial to ensure the adequacy of the army.


    Otherwise, it will be difficult to fight against Zhang Xiu.


    After Guan Jing finished speaking, he did not speak any more and went back to his seat.


    Gongsun Zan looked at the rest of his men and said some other things that needed attention.


    In particular, Gongsun Zan strictly ordered the sentinel to carefully observe the movement of Zhang Xiu and the situation of Zhang Xiu''s army. Once Zhang Xiu to send troops, then, immediately have to send the news back, in order to make timely response.


    After everything was arranged properly, Gongsun Zan waved his hand to let the people step down.


    Now everything has been discussed, especially with Guan Jing''s suggestion, Gongsun Zan thinks that it is not difficult to resist Zhang Xiu''s army, so Gongsun Zan now has to let go.


    He handed over the government affairs to Guan Jing and went to the harem himself.


    It''s the joy of life to stay in the harem and have fun with the concubines in the harem on this cold day.

 Chapter 1055

    North of Jizhou, Gaoyang County of Hejian state.


    Today''s army of Zhang Xiu is stationed here. Now it has entered December, and the weather is getting colder and colder. However, the garrison in Gaoyang County didn''t feel cold either. After all, the soldiers in the army had clothes, food and meat, and their diet kept up.


    Soldiers in the army have little influence.


    Moreover, some of the military supplies needed for the war in Jizhou can be supplied from Jizhou, and the other can be transferred from Hanoi Prefecture. Therefore, there is no problem in the supply of grain.


    The army is in good working order.


    Most of the soldiers who were injured in the war have recovered. Nowadays, Cuju is often played in the army. Even though it was often snowing, even though it was often cold, the soldiers were still enthusiastic.


    After all, there is nothing to do in the army.


    In particular, the army appeared a special bet on the plate, only a few copper money can bet. For the soldiers in the army, there is no burden to participate in the fun.


    The camp of more than 100000 troops was in stable operation, but although the army stopped fighting, the royal guards under Zhang Xiu did not stop. They were engaged in extensive activities in Youzhou to obtain information.


    The big account in the army is Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    Now Zhang Xiuzheng is reading a book. After all, there are not many things to do in the army. Read a book and deal with some particularly important things that Wang Yue sent from Chang''an. The day goes by in a hurry.


    "Hoo


    The curtain of the barracks was lifted, and Wang Yue entered quickly.


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, just received a report from the soldiers, Liu Bei and Lu Bu, both requested to see you."


    Liu Bei and Lu Bu were both detained. However, both of them have been detained, and Zhang Xiu has not taken charge of them, because neither Liu Bei nor Lu Bu are willing to live under the people. Such a person, if you want to surrender him, maybe you have to leave a tiger around, and finally hurt yourself, so Zhang Xiu never summoned these people.


    Now, both Liu Bei and Lu Bu ask to see Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "first bring Liu Bei. Let me see what Liu Bei wants to say."


    "Here it is


    The more Wang answered, he immediately went to arrange it.


    Soon, Liu Bei entered.


    Today, Liu Bei is much older, his temples are much whiter, and he is much thinner. His slightly protruding belly has shrunk a lot. He has lost his former spirit and toughness.


    Zhuge Liang died in front of him!


    Zhuge Liang wanted to die, but he was still alive.


    But Liu Bei''s heart, he also has ambition, even if he surrendered to Zhang Xiu, he did not give up hope. As long as he has a chance, he will not give up, he will practice his ambition. In the old days, it was so poor that there was no chance. Now, although he is a prisoner or a prisoner, he has a better starting point than before.


    However, what Liu Bei reveals is still decadent.


    After seeing Zhang Xiu, Liu Bei bowed and said, "sinner Liu Bei, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said: "sit down!"


    Liu Bei shook his head and said, "sinners dare not sit down."


    Zhang Xiu saw that Liu Bei wanted to be like this, but she didn''t care about Liu Bei''s mind. He had asked Liu Bei to sit down, but if Liu Bei didn''t sit down, it was not his business, so Zhang Xiu asked: "you want to come to see me on your own initiative. What do you want to say?"


    Liu Bei bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, a sinner is a guilty person. But he also hopes to make contributions for himself or his children. Now that his majesty is at war with Gongsun Zan, it happens that the sinner and Gongsun Zan are from the same family. So the sinner hopes to go to Jicheng and persuade Gongsun Zan to surrender for his majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    He didn''t believe Liu Bei''s words, because in history, when Liu Bei was under Yuan Shao''s command, he said that he wanted to recruit Guan Yu for Yuan Shao, but he didn''t come back after he left. Even under the command of Cao Cao, there was a situation that never came back. If Liu Bei''s words are solid now, but he leaves directly, on the contrary, he is mixed up with Gongsun Zan, which is not a good thing for Zhang Xiu.


    In particular, Liu Bei is not a simple character.


    people in Zhang embroidery''s cage has the final say. Once Liu Bei gets out of the cage, I''m afraid it''s going to be sky high. It''s not easy to take Liu Bei.


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart and didn''t answer for the moment.


    When Liu Bei saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t speak, he became anxious and said: "Your Majesty, Liu Bei is sincere and has no double heart. Please allow him to have a chance to make contributions."


    Zhang Xiu stares at Liu Bei.


    That sharp eyes, as if directly shot through Liu Bei''s heart, even let Liu Bei heart a little panic. It is really in front of Zhang Xiu, as if there is a feeling of being penetrated, which makes people panic unconsciously.


    Rao is so, Liu Bei still insists, keeps calm.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu laughed.Zhang Xiu suddenly has an idea in her mind. Since Liu Bei is going to lobby Gongsun Zan, he can try Liu Bei. At the same time, it is also an opportunity for Liu Bei to make a choice. He wants to see how Liu Bei will make a choice.


    Liu Bei is not clear about Zhang Xiu''s idea, but he is not willing to give up.


    Before Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, Liu Bei could not wait to say: "Liu Bei knows that your majesty is wise and powerful, and he is tending to dominate the world. The vast rivers and mountains will soon be under your Majesty''s command. Therefore, I sincerely ask your majesty to give Liu Bei a chance to do meritorious service, so that Liu Bei can exert a little strength for Daqin when he finally dominates the country. Please allow me


    After a pause, Liu Bei said: "the heart of Liu Bei, heaven and earth can learn, the sun and the moon can Zhao."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Bei, do you really want to go to Jicheng and persuade Gongsun Zan to surrender to Daqin?"


    "Yes


    Liu Bei replied solemnly.


    This is his only chance. Besides, Liu Bei can''t think of any other way.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were deep and said, "you are willing to go. I am very supportive. But if you want to go on your own initiative, you must comply with my arrangement and follow my arrangement. "


    Liu Bei was overjoyed. He restrained his inner joy and said, "Your Majesty, please command me."


    After Liu Bei surrendered, I have never summoned you or accepted your surrender. Then, tomorrow, I will gather all the soldiers in the army. "


    "In front of all the officers and men of the Qin Dynasty, you Liu Bei will kneel down and bow to me."


    "At that time, I will accept your surrender. Then, in front of everyone, you offered to share my worries and go to the state of Yan to persuade Gongsun Zan to surrender. "


    "In front of all the officers and men of the Qin Dynasty, you say that if you don''t return to Jizhou after Liu Bei goes to the state of Yan, you Liu Bei and his wife and children will be killed by heaven and man, and you can''t die well."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in a word, you have to show your loyalty."


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face changed slightly.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu made such a request for him. In Liu Bei''s heart, he really wanted to leave Jizhou and enter Youzhou. Then he joined Gongsun Zan. Those who followed Gongsun Zan would never return.


    Liu Xiu will pay a great price if he leaves his wife and children completely.


    So Liu Bei''s heart, in a moment, is also some hesitation.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Liu Bei standing in the camp and said faintly: "why, this is some regret. Do you not want to go to Jicheng to lobby Gongsun Zan? Liu Bei, did you come here on purpose to amuse me this time? "


    Liu beilian said hastily: "Your Majesty''s lesson, Liu Bei''s heart, heaven and earth as evidence, absolutely no two hearts. It''s just that Liu Bei has never met such a situation, so he is a little absent-minded. Since your majesty has made such an arrangement, Liu Bei should follow his Majesty''s arrangement. "


    At this point, Liu Bei has no choice. Otherwise, it would appear that he is in a panic.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "if that''s the case, step back!"


    "Here it is


    Liu Bei bowed and bowed to him, then he stepped down. He originally intended to deal with Zhang Xiu, but now, it is some tangled, because how to choose, make him confused.

 Chapter 1056

    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care what Liu Bei thinks. Since Liu Bei wants to fight, Zhang Xiu agrees, but it depends on Liu Bei''s choice. Liu Bei, who lost his reputation and lost his wife and children, is not worth mentioning.


    It depends on what Zhang Zan asks for.


    Zhang Xiu put Liu Bei''s affairs aside for the time being and ordered people to call Lv Bu.


    In a word, Zhang Xiu hasn''t seen Lv Bu for some time.


    Since the last attack on Cao Cao, Zhang Xiu took Lv Bu out for a walk, and then detained Lv Bu again. She controlled Lv Bu in the army and never cared about Lv Bu''s affairs.


    More than a year has passed in this flash. For Zhang Xiu, more than a year has passed in a hurry, but for Lu Bu, it is different. Even if he is full of fighting spirit, it has already passed away.


    Year after year, he grew old.


    Now, Lu Bu''s temples have a trace of white hair.


    Lu Bu didn''t want to be detained like this any more. He didn''t even want to be rich, or fight again. At least he could walk around freely, get together with his family, and live with his family. That would be enough.


    This is Lu Bu''s idea.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu is too strong. Even now Wu and Wei states have been wiped out one after another, and even Jin State has been destroyed. Only the state of Yan under Gongsun Zan is left.


    In Lv Bu''s opinion, this is definitely not able to stop Zhang Xiu.


    Lu Bu thinks that Zhang Xiu must be unified. If he continues to be so restrained, it''s not a matter. It''s better to submit to Zhang Xiu earlier.


    Therefore, as soon as Lv Bu entered the camp, before he reached the front of Zhang Xiu, he had already pushed the golden mountain down like a jade pillar, and knelt down on the ground directly, saluted orally and said, "sinner Lv Bu, meet your majesty."


    He is no longer the pride of Lu Bu among the people of the past, but a military general who is beginning to grow old.


    No pride of the past.


    Once upon a time, Lu Bu''s face was full of pride, full of pride, giving people the feeling that the edge will show when they meet. But now Lu Bu''s face, but more than a few lines of wrinkles, has been the hero''s twilight, aging, more decadent gas.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Lv Bu. He hasn''t seen Lv Bu for a long time, but now Lv Bu has lost his old spirit and light, and even his stubble is a bit messy. It looks decadent.


    Zhang Xiu thinks that she still has the eye of seeing people.


    He was very clear that Lu Bu was no longer what he used to be. He had already worn away his old spirit.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you


    Lu Bu quickly stood up and went forward. When Lv Bu came to the position not far from Zhang Xiu, he stood still, slightly arched his back, slightly bowed his head, and did not dare to face Zhang Xiu.


    As the distance gets closer, it''s easier for Zhang Xiu to look at Lv Bu. He looked at Lv Bu in front of him. He said in a deep voice, "come and see me now. What do you want to do?"


    Lu Bulian said hastily: "tell your majesty that the sinner is willing to submit to and serve Daqin. I don''t want to be a chief General in the army, I just want to be able to take part in the war and kill the enemy. Now the sinners are getting older and live up to their old bravery. Please, your majesty, give Lv Bu a chance. Lv Bu is willing to serve your majesty and the Qin Dynasty. "


    Plop!


    Lu Bu knelt down again.


    This time, he was not only kneeling, but kneeling on the ground with his head on the ground, and his body almost fell on the ground. Such Lu Bu has already abandoned all his dignity. He is no longer Marquis Lu Wen, who used to be the most powerful in the world, but just a living person who cares about his family.


    Today, Lu Bu no longer has the idea of dominating the world, no ambition.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Lv Bu in front of him. He knows that Lv Bu has really given up everything.


    After all, today is different from the past.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "your request is granted. Now you are in the regular army, under the jurisdiction of Zhang Yan, as his deputy general. "


    "Thank you


    Lu Bu was very grateful.


    Zhang xiudao: "I hope you are a brand new you now."


    Lu Bu said: "Your Majesty, this Lu Bu is not the other Lu Bu. Today''s Lu Bu will not be overstepped."


    At this moment, Lu Bu was very happy.


    Once upon a time, Lu Bu had a great ambition to conquer the world and become the leader of the world. So at that time, Lu Bu asked for too much. But now, Lu Bu does not want to be famous. He does not want to compete in the world. He only wants to be able to live in peace, visit his relatives from time to time, and be with his family. That''s enough.


    It is precisely now that Lu Bu doesn''t ask for much, so as soon as he hears Zhang Xiu''s words, his heart will be happy.


    "I''m looking forward to your performance," she said


    Lu Bu said: "I will live up to your Majesty''s high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down!""Here it is


    Lu Bu bowed down and stepped down happily.


    At this moment, Lv Bu was relaxed. When he walked out of Zhang Xiu''s army tent, he couldn''t help laughing. His rough and slightly old cheek showed a happy look.


    Back in his camp, Lu Bu immediately asked someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then quickly wrote a letter. When he finished writing the letter, he called for the soldiers to send it to Chang''an through the post station.


    In fact, Cao and Wei were all dead, and now all of Lu Bu''s family members have moved to Chang''an.


    They all live in Chang''an.


    So Lu Bu wrote a letter to tell his wife and daughter that he was no longer a prisoner, but a general of the Qin Dynasty.


    This is what Lu Bu wants to send.


    After Lu Bu''s letter was sent out, Wang Yue soon got the news. He was holding Lu Bu''s letter in his hand. After all, it was Lu Bu''s letter. Even if he gave it to the soldiers, he could not send it away at will, so he was intercepted and sent to Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue opened the envelope directly and checked the contents of the letter. After reading it, he found that there was no abnormality, so he sealed it again and arranged for someone to send it to Chang''an.


    Wang Yue also personally went to Zhang Xiu''s camp and said that Lv Bu had asked someone to send a message.


    It''s not surprising that Zhang Xiu got the news.


    He can see the current state of Lu Bu. With the passage of time, Lu Bu today is no longer what he used to be. He is just a Lu Bu who has seen through everything and lost his ambition. Perhaps Lu Bu''s martial arts are still there, but today''s Lu Bu can no longer betray as he once did.


    This is such a Lubu.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said: "for Lv Bu''s surveillance, it can be slightly reduced, and there is no need to stare too closely."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    He also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s analysis that now Lv Bu has become obedient and can appropriately reduce surveillance. With the passage of time, only when it is determined that Lu Bu is harmless can we really get in touch with surveillance. Of course, this can not be done overnight.


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu continued to read.


    Zhang Xiu is looking forward to Liu Bei''s performance.


    As a moral model, Liu Bei has always boasted of benevolence and righteousness, and always talked about benevolence and righteousness. Zhang Xiu wants to see what Liu Bei''s final choice will be when he submits in front of all the soldiers tomorrow?


    As time goes by, the day slips away.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    On this day, there was no snow, but the surrounding area was a vast expanse of white, because the snow did not melt away, and countless trees were wrapped in silver. However, there was no snow in the camp. All the snow was removed.


    In the morning, as soon as the soldiers had breakfast, the battle drums began to ring.


    This is the sound of drumming. Gather all the soldiers. As the drums echoed, soldiers in the army ran quickly and went straight to the barracks.


    The school is very spacious.


    Even if it is more than 100000 people, it can easily accommodate them.


    After all the soldiers arrived, although they were well dressed and slightly bloated, they were very energetic. After all, all the soldiers in the army had good food and entertainment programs. They had a good life.

 Chapter 1057

    All the soldiers gathered and talked.


    There are many things that they talk about, such as their family''s strong points, their wives and children, the recent Cuju competition, and other miscellaneous gossip. The constant discussion makes the whole school noisy.


    With the generals in the army taking their positions, the voices of the people gradually stopped, and they all waited patiently.


    Liu Bei arrived first.


    Zhang Xiu was the last to arrive. When he arrived, the scene was even more silent. Everyone looked at Zhang Xiu. With the movement of Zhang Xiu, a pair of eyes, also followed the movement, finally Zhang Xiu came to the front of the stage.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and looked at everyone.


    There are more than 100000 troops, which are extremely frightening and impressive.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "to call your array together today is to announce a major event. Liu Bei, the Duke of Chu, who founded the state of Chu, has made a great change, forgotten the past, and expressed his willingness to submit to Daqin. "


    After all, Liu Bei was captured, and it was useless to resist. However, when many soldiers heard Zhang Xiu say that Liu Bei had forgotten his past, many people sneered and looked down upon Liu Bei.


    You know, Liu Bei''s third brother, Zhang Fei, would rather die than fall. He jumped down from the tower and committed suicide.


    Guan Yu, Liu Bei''s second younger brother, also vowed not to surrender and was eventually killed.


    As for Liu Bei''s counselor Zhuge Liang, he also committed suicide with his sword and was unwilling to surrender. But now Liu Bei has surrendered directly. Although it is beneficial to the Qin Dynasty, the soldiers in the army despise Liu Bei.


    They all think Liu Bei is soft.


    He''s a spineless man.


    The voice of the soldier''s comments clearly came into Liu Bei''s ears, making Liu Bei''s heart as if he had been pricked by a needle. When Liu Bei returned to his camp yesterday, he pondered and pondered. Finally, Liu Bei made a decision.


    He didn''t let go of his hatred!


    He didn''t put down his ambition!


    He will take advantage of this opportunity, and then escape from Zhang Xiu''s clutches, to seek Gongsun Zan''s strength, in order to resist Zhang Xiu.


    This is Liu Bei''s plan.


    It is also Liu Bei''s decision.


    In the soldier''s discussion, Liu Bei stepped out. He went to the front of the army, knelt down and saluted Zhang Xiu. After kneeling once, Liu Bei stood up again and began to step on the stage.


    When Liu Bei came to Zhang Xiu, he lifted his robe and knelt down again, shouting: "Liu Bei of Chu state is willing to submit to his Majesty the great Qin emperor, long live his Majesty the great Qin Emperor!"


    Zhang xiuhan said: "get up!"


    "Thank you


    Liu Bei bowed to thank him, then stood up respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Liu Bei has surrendered to Daqin. The first thing he wants to do is to go north to Jicheng, Youzhou, as an envoy of Daqin, and personally persuade Gongsun Zan to surrender."


    Liu Bei said: "if I go to Jicheng, I will live up to your Majesty''s high hopes. If I fail your Majesty''s high hopes, I will be struck by thunder and lightning, and my family will have to die."


    This oath is made in front of everyone.


    When Liu Bei said it, his face changed a little. He knew that the oath was just empty talk, which was intended to deceive Zhang Xiu. In fact, he didn''t want to talk like this, but it was Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, and he had to say it.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "I really appreciate Liu Bei''s heart. Today, in front of all the soldiers, I promise that as long as Liu Bei lobbies Gongsun Zan to succeed and orders Gongsun Zan to submit to our great Qin Dynasty, I will not be ungrateful to Liu Bei. Even if Liu Bei is a minister, I will treat him equally, and there will be no discrimination. "


    When the soldiers below heard this, they all praised Zhang Xiu for her generosity.


    Even in front of everyone, it was announced.


    In the eyes of the soldiers, Zhang Xiu''s intention is to make Liu Bei feel relieved and to show that Daqin did not treat his subordinates badly. In the eyes of the soldiers, Zhang Xiu broke her heart.


    Liu Bei looked down and saw the admiration of soldiers for Zhang Xiu, and the admiration of soldiers for Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Bei also knew that his reputation would be ruined if he was gone forever.


    Because Liu Bei is treacherous.


    Zhang Xiu trusts Liu Bei so much, but in the end, Liu Bei abandons Daqin, which is Liu Bei''s responsibility.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Liu Bei is clear, but he has a choice, so he knows the consequences of doing so. Liu Bei has no choice but to rush forward with his teeth clenched. He has no choice.


    After Zhang Xiu beckoned Liu Bei to step down, she said something about Lv Bu''s surrender, about Lv Bu''s current role as Deputy General of the regular army, and finally encouraged the soldiers to be diligent in training.


    Finally, Zhang Xiu disbanded the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu goes to the big account of the Chinese army, and Liu Bei goes back with her.Liu Bei stood respectfully in front of Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, it will take some time for me to lobby Gongsun Zan when I go to the north. It can be as short as one month, or as short as three or five months. So during this period, I hope your majesty can stay in Gaoyang County temporarily. I will return as soon as possible and bring good news to your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed and said: "after the Spring Festival, I will send troops to the north. Now in December, you will go north to Jicheng. There is still a month or two left. I hope you can finish your task and come back earlier. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Bei bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Liu Bei dismissed her.


    After Liu Bei left the Chinese Army''s tent, Zhang Xiu immediately called Wang Yue and said, "Liu Bei is about to go north to Jicheng. This time, Liu Bei chose to abandon Daqin and stay under Gongsun Zan''s command, or he really wanted to persuade Gongsun Zan. You should arrange this matter in Jinyiwei of Jicheng and watch it carefully. What should be managed with money, just let it go and don''t have any scruples. "


    "I''ll do it


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer, and seemed very confident.


    During this period, the royal guards under his command continued to infiltrate Youzhou, and the infiltration of Youzhou continued, and the results were quite rich. Under such a premise, it is not difficult for Liu Bei to monitor his every move in Jicheng, Youzhou.


    Liu Bei went back to his camp and cleaned up. He could not wait to leave Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    When he walked out of the camp, he breathed the air outside the camp and felt the cold air under the cold weather. They all felt that the air was so fresh and felt a feeling of getting out of the cage.


    Liu Bei finally escaped.


    He finally got out of the cage and had a chance to revenge again.


    "Zhang Xiu, I will make you regret it."


    Liu Bei turns his head and looks at Zhang Xiu''s camp. His eyes are sharp and resentful. He is burdened with the blood debts of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang. Even Liu Bei can foresee that when the news of his stay with Gongsun Zan comes out, when Zhang Xiu knows that he has betrayed Daqin again, he is likely to anger his family.


    By then, his family could be killed, too. Therefore, he is likely to bear the life of his family. He was burdened with countless hatreds. He wanted to revenge himself and would never give up hatred.


    "Drive!"


    As soon as Liu Bei patted the horse''s back, the horse in his crotch was like an arrow away from the string, and he went away in the fierce cold wind.


    With the cold wind blowing, Liu Bei''s figure gradually disappeared.


    Liu Bei knows the consequences of his going, but Liu Bei goes without hesitation, because everything he does is for revenge and for Zhang Xiu to regret.


    All this, Liu Bei no regret!


    This is his choice!

 Chapter 1058

    Jicheng, as the capital of the state of Yan, when Zhang Xiu didn''t send troops to attack the state of Yan, Jicheng was very prosperous with people coming and going. Countless businessmen gathered here to do business for profit.


    But now, because of Zhang Xiu''s attack, people in the state of Yan are in a panic. Many businessmen are worried that they will be affected, so many businessmen have left ahead of time.


    As a result, Jicheng is much colder.


    There were only a few people coming and going in the streets. Even the vast majority of the people have been hiding at home, unwilling to come out at will, and are careful to avoid the war.


    When Liu Bei arrived at Jicheng, he frowned at everything in Jicheng.


    In principle, the capital of a country is not like this.


    Liu Bei didn''t think much about it. He just went to the imperial city quickly. When he came to the gate of the Imperial City, he was immediately stopped by the soldiers stationed at the gate. Especially when the soldiers looked at Liu Bei, they saw that Liu Bei was sloppy and tired. They didn''t want to see him. They told him, "go, beg, go away, don''t look for death here."


    Liu Bei''s face was slightly embarrassed.


    He was regarded as a beggar, but Liu Bei was not angry. He said with a straight face, "please let me know. Liu Bei asks to see your majesty."


    "Liu Bei?"


    The soldier snorted, waved his hand and said, "I don''t care whether you are Liu Bei, Wang Bei or horseback. As far as it is, you can roll for me. Otherwise, don''t blame us for being rude. This is the imperial city. How can it be a place for beggars like you to beg. If you offend a dignitary at will, you will not be able to get away with it. Go away, go away, go away


    Liu Bei frowned and said, "I am Liu Bei, the Duke of Chu. I used to be the king of Chu. Besides, my majesty and I were martial brothers. You should report to us immediately. "


    The soldier standing at the door hesitated.


    Does Liu Bei have such a relationship?


    But the soldiers on guard at the gate of the imperial city are new to the city. They don''t know Liu Bei, so they don''t know Liu Bei. Even once, Liu Bei was famous, but the soldiers in the army never heard of it.


    "Wheel! Wheel


    Just then, a carriage came slowly.


    The carriage stopped outside the Imperial City, but situ guanjing strode down. Today, it''s freezing. Guan Jing wears thick clothes with his hands in his sleeves to avoid being blown by the cold wind.


    When Liu Bei saw Guan Jing, his eyes lit up and he said, "Guan situ, Guan situ!"


    He knew that Guan Jing was situ now.


    So, open your mouth and shout.


    The soldier at the gate of the city looks unhappy because he is worried that Liu Bei will collide with Guan Jing, so that he will be implicated. But the next moment, Guan Jing''s reaction shocked the soldiers.


    As soon as Guan Jing saw Liu Bei, he was stunned for a moment. Then he came back to himself and bowed himself to say, "is it Xuande Gong?"


    Liu Bei said: "Liu Bei, see the pass situ."


    Guan Jinglian hurriedly said: "Xuande Gong has killed Guan Jing. You should be captured by Zhang Xiu. How Xuande Gong now, but suddenly appeared in succession, also came outside the imperial city


    At this moment, the soldiers were trembling.


    He didn''t expect that Liu Bei was really a man of status. Even Guan Jing was quite respectful to Liu Bei.


    Liu Bei glanced at the soldiers, but he didn''t investigate the fact that the soldiers had a bad eye on people. He said with a straight face, "it''s really a pity. This time, the reason why I was able to get rid of Zhang Xiu was that I told her that I was willing to go north to Jicheng to persuade her majesty. In this way, Zhang Xiu released me. That''s how I get out of the cage. "


    Guan Jing didn''t notice Liu Bei''s subsequent release, so he asked directly, "is Xuande Gong really going to open his eyes for Zhang Xiu now, and persuade his majesty to submit to Daqin?"


    "It''s impossible!"


    Liu Bei answered.


    Now that he has come out, he has a decision, and it is impossible for him to make eyes for Zhang Xiu. This time, he wanted to take advantage of Gongsun Zan''s strength to avenge himself, so he couldn''t work for Zhang Xiu any more.


    When Guan Jing heard Liu Bei''s words, he was also relieved. With a look of approval on his face, he said: "since Xuande is here to join your majesty, your majesty will be very happy. Go, go, let''s go to the palace


    Guan Jing took Liu Bei into the palace, and the soldiers did not dare to stop him.


    They came to the hall and waited.


    Less than a quarter of an hour, Gongsun Zan got the news and came to the hall. When Gongsun Zan saw Liu Bei, his face also showed an unexpected look. He was very happy and said with a smile, "Xuande, how did you come?"


    Liu Bei said: "I''m going to Jicheng in the north. I''ve come to your majesty specially. Please accept me."


    Gongsun Zan narrowed his eyes, looked at Liu Bei in front of him, and said, "Xuande, I heard that you and Zhao Yun were captured by Zhao Yun in the first battle of Changdu county. In the end, it fell into the hands of Zhang Xiu. But now, how did you go north? "


    He had doubts in his mind.


    After all, Gongsun Zan doesn''t know about Liu Bei''s current situation. In case Liu Bei actually obeys Zhang Xiu, but comes to his command to plan for Zhang Xiu under the guise of his name, it will be extremely unfavorable for the state of Yan.Liu Bei once again explained: "to your majesty, Zhang Xiu has now retreated to Gaoyang County of Hejian state. What Zhang Xiu publicizes to the outside world is that after the spring of next year, she will go north to attack the state of Yan. "


    After a pause, Liu Bei said: "I''m not willing to be imprisoned by Zhang Xiu all the time, so I took the initiative to find Zhang Xiu and said that I would go north for him and persuade his majesty to submit to Daqin. Actually, I want to get rid of Zhang Xiu. Thanks to Zhang Xiu''s agreement, I was able to get rid of the cage and go north to the state of Yan. "


    Hearing this, Gongsun Zan nodded.


    Liu Bei''s words, he believes, after all, there is a deep hatred between Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu. According to Gongsun Zan''s understanding of Liu Bei, Liu Bei may have betrayed Zhang Xiu. He wants to depend on him again and then consider dealing with Zhang Xiu.


    Gongsun Zan''s heart is thinking about the pros and cons of accepting Liu Bei.


    Gongsun Zan still hesitated about this.


    Gongsun Zan thought about it in his heart and then said, "Xuande, I''m very relieved that you are willing to come and return to me. Now, I also need to resist Zhang Xiu, so you are the best. I''ll arrange for someone to take you down to have a rest. After I''ve dealt with the government affairs, we''ll have a detailed talk about how to deal with Zhang Xiu and the arrangement for you. What do you think? "


    "Thank you


    Liu Bei bowed to thank him.


    In Liu Bei''s opinion, Gongsun Zan is sure to take him. His willingness is very simple. Zhang Xiu is going to sweep the whole world. It''s impossible to leave a state of Yan.


    Gongsun Zan had no way out, so he could only trust him and accept him. Then the two sides united to fight against Zhang Xiu in order to gain the living space of Yan state.


    Gongsun Zan called for a servant, and let the servant take Liu Bei down.


    In the hall, only Gongsun Zan and Guan Jing were left.


    Gongsun Zan looked solemn, waved his hand and said, "give me a seat!"


    When Guan Jing sat down, Gongsun Zan said, "situ, you went to the palace with Liu Bei. Did Liu Bei find you?"


    "No!"


    Guan Jing shook his head and explained: "when I entered the palace, I happened to see Liu Xuande at the gate of the city, but he was stopped by the soldiers. So, take him to the palace. When a minister enters the palace, he has something to report to his majesty. "


    Gongsun Zan said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guan Jing replied, "it''s about Wuhuan and Xianbei people sending troops. We have arranged people to go north and invite them to send troops. However, both Wuhuan people and Xianbei people say for the time being that this year''s weather is freezing and the sheep are losing a lot. It''s hard to survive the winter. There is no extra strength to help your majesty and they can''t go south."


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Gongsun Zan was furious when he heard that.


    According to Gongsun Zan''s temperament, if there is no threat from Zhang Xiu, as long as the Hu people outside the Great Wall dare to speak like this, he will certainly mobilize the army to fight. But now Gongsun Zan is only angry and has no way to send troops.


    After all, he can''t protect himself.

 Chapter 1059

    In the past, these Hu people outside the great wall were all obedient to Gongsun Zan. No one dared to provoke Gongsun Zan, or even disobey Gongsun Zan''s orders.


    As long as Gongsun Zan gave the order, most of the Hu people outside the Great Wall had to obey it. After all, Gongsun Zan was strong and good at riding and fighting, so the Hu people did not dare to refuse, but now they are different.


    The news of Zhang Xiu''s attack on Gongsun Zan has already spread.


    Therefore, the northern Hu people did not send troops.


    Gongsun Zan, in particular, did not really convince the Hu people. He only subdued Wuhuan and Xianbei people by strength. Once Gongsun Zan was in a weak position, these people immediately changed their mind and stopped going south to help him.


    Just so, Gongsun Zan was angry.


    Gongsun Zan took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and said in a deep voice: "situ, now we don''t have the support of Hu people and Xianbei people. We are not strong enough. How can we resist Zhang Xiu?"


    Guan Jing said, "it''s not easy."


    Let him come up with a solution, he also did not expect, can only be truthful answer.


    Gongsun Zan sat down dejectedly and said, "situ, the state of Dayan has come to the time of life and death. If we can''t win this war, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Guan Jing said, "Your Majesty, can you ask Liu Weitai to come and have a discussion?"


    "No need!"


    Gongsun Zan waved his hand.


    At this time, divination is not very useful.


    Guan Jing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, since there is no help from Wuhuan and Xianbei people, we can only rely on ourselves now. So the idea of humble duty is to mobilize all the troops of Yan. Only in this way can we have a chance to win. There is no other way. In short, we built high walls in Jicheng, hoarded more food and equipment, and defended with the help of the walls of Jicheng. "


    Gongsun Zan nodded solemnly.


    He agrees with Guan Jing''s analysis, because now he can only do his best to resist. Suddenly, Gongsun Zan said, "situ, now Liu Bei is here. Can we use Liu Bei to ease our relationship with Zhang Xiu?"


    Guan Jing turned his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"


    For a moment, Guan Jing had a guess in his heart.


    But Guan Jing didn''t say it. It depends on whether Gongsun Zan''s idea is consistent with his.


    Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice: "what I mean is that Liu Bei was a man who had surrendered to Zhang Xiu. But in the name of persuading him to surrender, he wanted to live under my command and compete with Zhang Xiu again. If we hand over Liu Bei, hand over Liu Bei to Zhang Xiu, and make love to Zhang Xiu, do you think Zhang Xiu will never attack the state of Yan again? "


    For Gongsun Zan, in front of the great cause of Yan, Gongsun Zan had nothing to sacrifice. What''s more, Gongsun Zan knew Liu Bei. He was a man who didn''t want to live under others. To leave Liu Bei is to leave a future trouble.


    What if Liu Bei wants to seize power?


    Therefore, if Liu Bei is handed over and the stability of the state of Yan can be obtained at the same time, Gongsun Zan will not hesitate. Although he and Liu Bei studied in Lu Zhi at the same time, in fact, they were only registered disciples of Lu Zhi, not admitted disciples.


    After all, there were countless people attending Lu Zhi''s lectures at that time. Anyone who attended the lectures could claim to be Lu Zhi''s disciple. Such a brotherhood is inherently unstable.


    This is also the reason why Lu Zhi and Liu Bei have a general relationship.


    After hearing Gongsun Zan''s words, Guan Jing thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, it''s about the confrontation between the state of Yan and the state of Qin. In the end, the state of Qin will certainly attack the state of Yan. It''s impossible to leave the state of Yan in Youzhou alone. As the saying goes, it''s impossible for others to snore on the side of the couch. The greater the strength of the Qin Dynasty, it''s impossible to give up attacking us just because of Liu Bei. However, if we use Liu Bei, we may be able to delay some time. "


    "How to delay?"


    Gongsun Zan immediately asked.


    If he could delay for a few days, that would be some days, so Gongsun Zan was willing to delay.


    Guan Jing zhengse said: "while Zhang Xiu is still recuperating, your majesty immediately arranges the envoy to go south to tell Zhang Xiu about Liu Bei. We don''t ask Zhang Xiu to retreat, we just ask her not to attack for the time being. As long as it is the next year, Zhang Xiu will not send troops. We can release Liu Bei and give him to Zhang Xiu. "


    For Guan Jing, when he met Liu Bei, Xuande Gong was just respectful.


    Now, it is intended to use Liu Bei.


    Because the starting point of everything is for the sake of the state of Yan, and Guan Jing doesn''t want the state of Yan to be destroyed. After all, he is a situ now. He is under one man and above ten thousand. Once Zhang Xiu takes the state of Yan, Guan Jing''s situ will come to an end.


    Gongsun Zan turned his eyes and said, "your proposal is quite good. If we can delay for another year, we will have more time to raise troops and prepare for resistance. As long as we are fully prepared, it will be more and more difficult for Zhang Xiu to destroy us. "


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Gongsun Zan''s face showed a touch of hope and said: "this matter, you should arrange it immediately. Well, if you choose someone who is eloquent, you must do itGuan Jing turned his eyes and said, "what is the most suitable music? He is not only the fourth younger brother of your majesty, but also the representative of your majesty. Moreover, because Le he Dang was born in Jia, he was eloquent and good at observing words and expressions, and he was sure to do it. "


    Gongsun Zan said: "yes!"


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing should go down immediately.


    He turned around and went to inform him. When he saw Le he Dang, he quickly said that Gongsun Zan had asked him to be an envoy.


    When Le he heard that, his first reaction was that he didn''t want to go south to see Zhang Xiu, which was quite risky. If Zhang Xiu detains him, he will not be able to return to Jicheng.


    Yue he said: "Guan situ, can''t you invite others to go? It may be for the rest of the people to go, not necessarily for me to go in person! "


    Guan Jing zhengse said: "it is because you are eloquent and good at observing what you say that your majesty has entrusted the important task to Lord le. So, please don''t refuse. "


    "Oh, that''s all!"


    Le ho Dang shook his head.


    He also knew that Gongsun Zan''s nature made it impossible for him to change the things he decided. He could only deal with the situation and could not make any adjustments.


    Guan Jing was also relieved.


    With Le he packing up, he had already packed up and was ready to leave.


    On the other side, Liu Bei''s residence.


    Today, Liu Bei lives in the imperial palace. It is a side hall. It is quite luxurious and has all kinds of utensils. But outside the side hall, there were soldiers guarding.


    Liu Bei had been waiting, but he still didn''t see Gongsun Zan. He tried to stand up and went to the gate of the side hall. When he was ready to leave, he was stopped by the soldiers outside.


    At that moment, Liu Bei''s heart sank.


    He was imprisoned.


    Lost their own.


    Liu Bei''s heart, a lot of thought, thought of himself to go to Gongsun Zan, but now Gongsun Zan is imprisoned, Gongsun Zan is evil, even Gongsun Zan want to give him to Zhang Xiu?


    This is what Liu Bei fears.


    Liu Bei immediately went to the gate of the side hall and asked the soldiers at the gate to inform Gongsun Zan that he wanted to see him. However, the soldiers directly refused, saying that only when Gongsun''s family informed him to trample on it, could they take him to see Gongsun Zan. It was impossible that Liu Bei had to inform Gongsun Zan immediately if he wanted to see Gongsun Zan. This was impossible.


    When Liu Bei heard this, he staggered back, returned to his seat, and sat on the ground with a look of horror and worry on his face.


    It''s over!


    He may be sold by Gongsun Zan.


    Liu Bei''s original intention is to use Gongsun Zan to resist Zhang Xiu, but now, the situation is not good. Gongsun Zan actually imprisoned him, most likely to use him to please Zhang Xiu.


    "Damn it, damn it!"


    Liu Bei gritted his teeth and roared angrily. But no matter how angry he was, it didn''t help. He couldn''t play any role. He could only be depressed and angry.

 Chapter 1060

    It''s not a secret thing that Le he is an envoy. It''s easy for the royal guards to find out. Especially in today''s Jicheng, there are many guards everywhere. It''s easier to get information.


    Therefore, compared with Le Hedang''s going south, the news of the Royal Guards was sent back first. After Wang Yue got the news, he had already told Zhang Xiu the news and knew how to go south.


    However, I don''t know for the time being why Le should go south and what his intention is.


    But Zhang Xiu made arrangements.


    He wanted to see what kind of scene this music would be in front of him. With the passage of time, towards the end of December, Le Hedang had already arrived in Gaoyang County, and then came to the camp to see him.


    At the gate of the barracks, the soldiers were very strict.


    The soldiers on guard were all big and strong.


    Standing at the gate of the camp, as if iron.


    The spirit of killing on his face was also awe inspiring, especially when he was happy to see it. He was also frightened and scared to the extreme. After all, he was just a businessman, not a battlefield fighter. Now he is afraid to see this scene.


    "Kill! Kill! Kill


    Inside the camp, there was another shout.


    One after another, the shouting went straight up into the sky, as if determined.


    "Kill Gongsun Zan and destroy the state of Yan."


    "Kill Gongsun Zan and destroy the state of Yan."


    "Kill Gongsun Zan and destroy the state of Yan."


    ¡­¡­


    There was also a loud voice coming from the rear of the barracks. Even if Le he Dang could not see the soldiers in the rear training, even if Le he Dang could not see the number of soldiers in the rear, but he only listened to the cry, he only felt that there were thousands of troops in front of him, and there were more sharp steps to stop, which made Le he Dang tremble with fear.


    Gudong!


    Le he Dang swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    His face was full of fear.


    Le he Dang came forward with a little voice, but he still said, "I''m le he Dang, the envoy of Yan state. Please inform his Majesty the emperor of Qin that Le he is coming to see you."


    "Wait!"


    At the soldier''s command, he turned and left.


    Le he should stand still and wait.


    About a quarter of an hour later, the soldier came back and told him, "follow me!"


    "Here it is


    Le he nodded and followed the soldiers in.


    Not long after that, Le Hedang came to the outside of the Chinese army tent, but at the door of the tent, there were a number of soldiers in the array, and all the soldiers held their own swords. The white blade made Le Hedang''s heart seem to be hanging in the air.


    If a sword falls down when he moves forward, he will die. Le he moved forward with fear. He walked slowly all the way. When he got to the gate of the camp, he was relieved.


    At this time, Le ho Dang finished the whole dress.


    He strode into the camp and saw Zhang Xiu sitting on the throne. He bowed and said, "I''m not happy. I''ve been ordered to send an envoy to the state of Qin to see your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "I and Gongsun Zan are hostile now. Qin and Yan can only exist in one country. Now Gongsun Zan has sent you here. Isn''t that sending you to die? Come on, drag Le he Dang down, kill him directly, and hang his head at the gate of the camp for three days to show my determination to destroy the state of Dayan. "


    Brush!


    When he was happy, he became nervous and his face changed again and again.


    He knew it was extremely dangerous.


    Le he Dang was not a man who had seen the world. When he saw the soldiers coming in, he wanted to drag him away. He immediately plopped down on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, please spare your life, your majesty, please spare your life!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the use of keeping you?"


    "Drag it down!"


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked, and her face was full of iron and blood. His cruel decision and firm words made Le he Dang nervous even more. Even when he was dragged by the soldiers, Le he Dang also cried out: "Your Majesty, the two armies are at war and will not be killed. I''m the envoy of Dayan kingdom. You can''t kill me, you can''t kill me! "


    "What can Gongsun Zan do to kill you?"


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, he shows his intention of killing without concealment. He has already inquired about the details of Le he Dang. Le he Dang is a businessman. He is the fourth of Gongsun Zan''s brothers. He is rich, but he is afraid of death.


    Le he said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty Daqin, I am willing to surrender, I am willing to submit to Daqin, only beg for my life."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    He was a little surprised.


    Even if it is music, how to be greedy for life and afraid of death, but at most is to say with Zhang Xiu, willing to reveal. But Zhang Xiu didn''t expect that after some threatening words, Le he should surrender directly, which is interesting. If Le he is willing to cooperate, it is the best for Zhang Xiu to attack Gongsun Zan.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and her soldiers immediately stepped down.After the soldier retreated, Le he quickly climbed forward, but when he moved his body, it was obvious that there was a pool of water stains at the place where he collapsed just now, and he was already scared to pee.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, her face was even more disdainful.


    That''s how to be happy.


    This is a soft guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "are you really willing to submit to Daqin?"


    "Yes, yes!"


    If you don''t want to think about it, you can answer it directly. Now, as long as you are not blind, you can see that the great Qin Dynasty has a tendency to dominate the world. If the state of Dayan had never been defeated in the previous battle between the two armies, then Le he Dang might not have surrendered to Zhang Xiu. But now, the state of Yan is declining, and it can''t be stopped, so le he should push the boat and surrender.


    Zhang Xiu showed approval on her face and nodded: "good. Since you are willing to submit to Daqin, I will not treat you badly. You say, what did Gongsun Zan send you to do this time? "


    Le he replied: "tell your majesty that Gongsun Zan sent me to come to Liu Bei this time. Before that, Liu Bei went north to Jicheng on his Majesty''s order to persuade Gongsun Zan to surrender. "


    "But as soon as Liu Bei arrived at Jicheng, he changed his mind and turned to help Gongsun Zan attack the great Qin state. Gongsun Zan did not dare to take in his majesty. He took Liu Bei into custody and hoped that Daqin would maintain peace for a year. "


    Le he Dang now knows everything and says everything. He goes on: "as long as Daqin doesn''t send troops in the next year, Gongsun Zan will hand over Liu Bei to Daqin for his Majesty''s disposal."


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Gongsun Zan also counseled.


    If Gongsun Zan had the courage to fight, he would never say that he would hand over Liu Bei or send envoys to the south.


    Zhang Xiu laughs at Liu Bei.


    Liu Bei got into the Bureau set by Zhang Xiu, but in the end, he was abandoned by Gongsun Zan. In the final analysis, Liu Bei was too clever to be calculated, but he was calculated again after all.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Le he Dang and said in a deep voice, "Le he Dang, go back and tell Gongsun Zan immediately, order him to kill Liu Bei on the spot, and publicize Liu Bei''s affairs in Qin and Chu. In this way, I can consider attacking Yan for the time being. As for whether I will attack the state of Yan, the detailed treaty will have to be discussed again. "


    Le he said: "Your Majesty, don''t you want to destroy Gongsun Zan?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "this is what you should ask?"


    When Le he heard that, he immediately thought he understood Zhang Xiu''s meaning and said, "Your Majesty is brilliant, your majesty is brilliant! First stabilize Gongsun Zan, let him solve Liu Bei, and then consider dealing with Gongsun Zan. Please don''t worry, your majesty. I''ll go back now. "


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    In fact, for Zhang Xiu, what he does now is to deal with Liu Bei. This is because Liu Bei is totally unwilling to surrender. If he is not disposed of thoroughly, he will not be able to avoid future trouble.

 Chapter 1061

    Le he Dang left the barracks, just a long breath. At this time, he only felt cold sweat on his back, soaked his clothes, and felt cold all over. Zhang Xiu''s strength is too strong, in front of Zhang Xiu, Le he Dang only feels that it is difficult to breathe, for fear of a bad one, he is executed by Zhang Xiu.


    For their own secretly submit to Zhang Xiu, music when do not feel what.


    People tend to seek good fortune and avoid evil.


    In order to survive and avoid being slaughtered, he was happy to submit to the principles of the Qin Dynasty. What''s more, now Zhang Xiu''s strength is too strong, and it''s close to dominating the world.


    Obedience to Zhang Xiu is also the general trend.


    Le he Dang was in a hurry, and there was no delay on the way, so just in January, Le he Dang had already returned to Ji City, and hurried to the imperial city of Yan to see Gong sun Zan.


    He went straight into the palace. As soon as he came to the main hall, he saw Gongsun Zan had arrived.


    Gongsun Zan couldn''t wait to say, "fourth brother, what''s the situation?"


    Le he said: "in return to your majesty, Zhang Xiu agreed in principle not to send troops. However, Zhang Xiu changed the conditions and said that if she wanted her majesty to execute Liu Bei in Jicheng, she had to declare Liu Bei''s treachery. As long as his majesty executed Liu Bei, Zhang Xiu said that he would consider not sending troops for the time being, but Zhang Xiu said that he would have to consider the specific conditions. "


    Gongsun Zan immediately frowned.


    Zhang Xiu put forward the conditions, once put him in midair.


    He was in a dilemma.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu only said that she could consider not sending troops for the time being. In fact, she did not make a decision at all. What if in the future, Zhang Xiu will attack Jicheng again?


    Didn''t Gongsun Zan kill Liu Bei in vain?


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant entered and reported: "Your Majesty, Guan situ has arrived."


    "Xuan!"


    Gongsun Zan gave an order.


    In fact, Gongsun Zan invited Guan Jing to come. When he got the news of Le Hedang''s return, he had arranged for someone to inform Guan Jing. Because Guan Jing''s office is in the Imperial City, he has already come outside the hall after a while.


    Gongsun Zan didn''t make up his mind for the time being. After Guan Jing entered, he quickly said the conditions for le to bring back, and then said, "Guan situ, Zhang Xiu has changed his mind. Let''s kill Liu Bei, and he said it''s just for consideration. Tell me what we should do. Under the current circumstances, it''s really not easy to do. "


    Guan Jing also frowned.


    Zhang Xiu''s response, he did not expect, he thought that Zhang Xiu may refuse, may also agree, or even false, but did not expect, Zhang Xiu will order Gongsun Zan immediately killed Liu Bei.


    This is surprising.


    Gongsun Zan urged again: "Guan situ, what should I do?"


    Guan Jing hastily, zhengse way: "Your Majesty, now we are in a weak position. And now, we need time to adjust and recover, so we agree to kill Liu Bei first and stabilize Zhang Xiu. "


    As for Zhang jingdun, we have to think about the negotiation first. Stabilize Zhang Xiu, and then consider dealing with Zhang Xiu. It is also feasible to use a Liu Bei as a temporary drag on Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Gongsun Zan nodded, but he didn''t agree immediately. He looked at Le he Dang and said, "what''s your opinion, old four?"


    Le he Dang said, "Your Majesty, I agree with Guan situ''s suggestion. What''s more, Liu Bei is not a good stubble. When Liu Bei was under his Majesty''s command, he was always independent and did not want to submit to his majesty. Now, the same is true of him, with the help of his Majesty''s forces. So it''s no use keeping Liu Bei. It may even be harmful to us. "


    Gongsun Zan also nodded.


    He was clear about this, because at that time, Gongsun Zan knew that Liu Bei didn''t want to be a subordinate.


    Gongsun Zan said, "come, please come to liuweitai."


    "Here it is


    The attendants outside the main hall, go to preach immediately.


    About two quarters of an hour later, Liu Weitai rushed in, bowed to Gongsun Zan and said, "I don''t know what happened when your majesty summoned me."


    Gongsun Zan gave a brief account of Liu Bei''s affairs, and finally said: "whether Guan situ or his fourth brother, they all agreed to kill Liu Bei in order to delay the war with Zhang Xiu. Second brother, you are good at divination, so you immediately divine to see if you should kill Liu Bei. "


    "Liu Bei should be killed!"


    Liu Weitai didn''t even think about it and answered directly.


    Gongsun Zan said, "why?"


    Liu Weitai replied, "I''ll report back to your majesty, because in the early years, my younger brother saw that Liu Bei was not a subordinate. Liu Bei, in particular, is a nuisance to the Lord''s life. Whoever he follows will have bad luck. You can''t leave Liu Bei with your majesty. Therefore, there is no need for divination. I implore your majesty to kill Liu Bei. "


    As for Liu Bei, Liu Weitai has a murderous heart, because Liu Bei looks down on people of his divination background. Therefore, when Liu Weitai had an opportunity for Liu Bei, he immediately went down the drain.Gongsun Zan listened to the public''s opinions and thought carefully on his face.


    Whether to kill Liu Bei or not is a big issue.


    If you kill Liu Bei, there will be no way out.


    We can''t kill Liu Bei, and we can''t delay Zhang Xiu. We can''t negotiate with Zhang Xiu and delay time.


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes turned and suddenly said, "when you say, can you pretend to kill Zhang Xiu, and then publicize that I have killed Liu Bei, so as to deceive Zhang Xiu?"


    "No, your majesty!"


    Guan Jing immediately spoke and said, "Your Majesty, there is no impermeable wall in this world. If the news leaks, there is no chance to delay. I don''t agree with that. "


    Le he Dang had already surrendered to Zhang Xiu. He was eager to kill Liu Bei before he could finish his task, so he said, "Your Majesty, I agree with Guan situ. First, Liu Bei is ambitious; second, it''s useless to keep him. So it''s better to kill Liu Bei.


    Liu Weitai also said, "Your Majesty, my younger brother also agrees to kill Liu Bei."


    "Just, just!"


    Gongsun Zan saw that all his brothers and ministers agreed to kill Liu Bei, that is, he no longer insisted on it, so he ordered: "Guan Jing, you can arrange the matter of killing Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei used to be my elder martial brother. Take three feet of white silk with you and leave him dead. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing should go down immediately.


    Gongsun Zan discussed something about preparing to negotiate with Zhang Xiu, and then waved his hand to let everyone back.


    After Guan Jing stepped down, he immediately called for an internal servant, asked someone to prepare three feet of white silk, and took the servant to the side hall where Liu Bei was detained. Now Liu Bei is detained in the side hall, without any freedom.


    When Guan Jing came to the side hall, he took over three feet of white silk from the soldiers and took them in. As soon as Guan Jing looks up, he sees Liu Bei, who is thin and irritable.


    At this moment, when Liu Bei saw Guan Jing, there was a flash of expectation in his eyes. But the next moment, his eyes fell on Guan Jing''s three foot white silk. In an instant, Liu Bei''s heart sank.


    Three feet of white silk!


    This is to kill him!


    Gudong!


    Liu Bei swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He didn''t even move his body. He just stared at Guan Jing and said in a deep voice, "Guan situ, are you here to kill me now? Is Gongsun Zan trying to kill me? "


    "Yes


    Guan Jing''s concise answer.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    All of a sudden, Liu Bei began to laugh. The laughter was full of desolation. He tried his best, but in the end, he was going to die in Gongsun Zan''s side hall. It''s ridiculous!

 Chapter 1062

    Liu Bei''s heart is so cold at this moment.


    When he was captured by Zhao Yun, he was extremely humiliated by Zhao Yun. Finally, Liu Bei did not die, and he survived. He lived in disgrace, only for revenge, only for the opportunity to find revenge.


    This time he went north and thought he had a chance to get revenge. But I didn''t expect that as soon as I got under Gongsun Zan''s command, I was detained by Gongsun Zan. Up to now, Gongsun Zan has given him three feet of white silk.


    Liu Bei bit his teeth and almost growled: "Guan situ, I want to see Gongsun Zan, I want to see him."


    "Your majesty will not see you."


    Guan Jing shakes his head and answers directly. If Gongsun Zan had any friendship, he would not have killed Liu Bei. Therefore, it is impossible for Liu Bei to meet Gongsun Zan.


    Liu Bei''s cheek twitched gently.


    His body, some frivolous, feel top heavy.


    Even, there is such a moment in the brain, there is a blank, for a moment, I don''t know how to deal with it. When Liu Bei''s spirit recovers and comes back to reality, Liu Bei has to look at Guan Jing''s three foot white silk.


    "Guan situ, why does Gongsun Zan want to kill me?"


    Liu Bei''s voice was still low, especially in his eyes.


    Guan Jing said: "because this is Zhang Xiu''s request."


    Brush!


    Liu Bei''s face changed greatly.


    Liu Bei was puzzled and said in a deep voice: "Gongsun Zan can''t surrender to Zhang Xiu. Since he doesn''t want to surrender, why should he give me death. Is Gongsun Zan soon breaking his own arm by doing so? "


    Guan Jing said: "the reason is very simple, because your majesty needs to delay with Zhang Xiu, just kill you, meet the conditions of Zhang Xiu, then you can delay for a while, and then deal with Zhang Xiu."


    Liu Bei shook his head and said, "it''s impossible. It''s impossible to delay. In the past, Yuan Shao became a minister to Zhang Xiu and called himself Emperor Er, but he did not prevent Zhang Xiu from destroying the state of Jin. Today, it''s still the same. Gongsun Zan, this is being hoodwinked by Zhang Xiu. I can''t believe it. Zhang Xiu can''t believe it. "


    Guan Jing said: "believe it or not, it''s not your consideration. Now, you just have to die. "


    With that, Guan Jing throws out the white silk in his hand.


    Three feet of white silk fell to the ground, Guan Jing said in a deep voice: "Liu Bei, you have to die if you don''t die. Now it''s in your Majesty''s hands. You have to die. Speaking of which, I''ve been looking at you for a long time. People like you, Liu Bei, should have died long ago. When you were under your Majesty''s command, you were always independent and did not listen to your Majesty''s instructions. I don''t like you all the time. "


    Liu Bei''s cheek twitched.


    Unexpectedly, when he was dying, he heard the truth of Guan Jing. It turned out that all Guan Jing''s address and courtesy to him were just affectations.


    "Stare at Liu Bei. If he doesn''t commit suicide, send him on the road."


    Guan Jing orders.


    The soldiers behind him immediately responded.


    These soldiers were the imperial guards, and they were all very powerful. At least Liu Bei couldn''t escape. Liu Bei looked at the soldier standing at the door, laughed at himself and bent down to pick up the three foot white silk.


    "What do you want with all this effort?"


    "Why?"


    Liu Bei murmured to himself, with a mournful look on his face. Because up to now, he still hasn''t done anything. Instead, he has become the fish on other people''s chopping board and the price that Gongsun Zan offered to Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Bei is helpless.


    At any rate, Liu Bei is also the leader of a generation, and also the vassal of both sides, but now, he is such a loser.


    "If I had known that, I would have killed myself when I was defeated by Zhao Yun."


    "I was dead and heroic."


    "I don''t know how to bear the name yet."


    "Now, it''s a curse on my back and I die under three feet of white silk. This man, the more he asks, the more he can''t. Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you are really the killer of Liu Bei''s life. "


    "I''m planning Jingzhou. You''re in the way."


    "I''m in Nanyang, defeated by you."


    "I unite with Cao Cao, you attacked Runan."


    "In the end, I''ll be your prisoner."


    "Now, because of you, Gongsun Zan has given him death. Gongsun Zan is nothing but a martial arts man who does not understand the way of governing the country and the difficulties of people''s livelihood. However, he was firmly established in the state of Yan. "


    "Heaven, how unfair


    "Heaven, how heartless!"


    However, Liu Bei threw the three foot white silk out of his hand and directly threw it on the ground, saying: "how can a man, a man, die under the three foot white silk. If you want to die, you will die under the sword


    Liu Bei, who had no way to survive, no longer hesitated. He held his hand directly on the hilt of his sword, and his sword came out of its sheath. He committed suicide with his sword. With a sound of Yila, the blade of the sword cut his throat, and the blood splashed out like a spring, which dyed Liu Bei''s chest red.


    Bang Dang!


    The blade fell to the ground.Liu Bei shook his body twice, but his face was smiling.


    He said this, all in the effort, all in seeking, but from the beginning to the end, did not seek anything.


    Now, he is free.


    No more burdens.


    "Second brother, third brother, have you come to pick me up?"


    It seems that Liu Yu and Zhang Yu''s eyes are blurring as they walk by.


    "Sergeant, are you here, too?"


    Liu Bei''s body is still shaking, and he seems to see Zhuge Liang walking behind Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, gently shaking his feather fan and wearing a white robe, which is dignified.


    "Ha..."


    With a smile, Liu Bei fell to the ground in front of the darkness.


    Liu Bei fell to the ground, no breath.


    The soldiers staring at Liu Bei come forward, squat down, check Liu Bei''s breath, and make sure that Liu Bei is really dead. Then they quickly report to Guan Jing that Liu Bei didn''t hang himself, but killed himself with a sword.


    Guan Jing doesn''t care about this.


    In short, Liu Bei is dead.


    Guan Jing immediately called people to publicize the news that Liu Bei was killed. He also said that Liu Bei was a perfidious man. In short, he was wantonly discrediting Liu Bei. After the arrangement, Guan Jing went to the palace again to meet Gongsun Zan and report Liu Bei''s death.


    After that, Guan Jing finally said: "Your Majesty, Liu Bei has been killed. We have finished the arrangement of Zhang Xiu. Now, it''s time to urge Zhang Xiu to fulfill the agreement, and then let him not attack for the time being. In this case, a treaty must be made so that stability can be achieved. "


    Gongsun Zan thought about it and said, "before that, it was the fourth younger brother who went to make an envoy. This time, the fourth brother was still arranged to go. You go to inform him and ask him to send an envoy at once to make an agreement. As for the detailed treaty, let him handle it. As long as it is within a reasonable range, we can agree to it, but when it comes to territory and becoming a minister, we will refuse it. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing should go down and turn around to arrange.

 Chapter 1063

    Where is Le.


    Today''s Le he Dang is devoted to planning for Zhang Xiu. After he returned to his residence, he even thought about how he would take over Zhang Xiu''s army and ensure the smooth entry of Zhang Xiu''s army into the city once Zhang Xiu''s army was killed.


    Although he was born as a businessman and was greedy for life and afraid of death, he still wanted to be prosperous after he was obedient to Zhang Xiu. He didn''t want to be as rich as he was in the state of Yan. As long as he was prosperous, he would be satisfied.


    This is the idea of Le he Dang.


    Just as Le he was pondering, the servant came to report that Guan Jing had come again.


    Le he Dang asked his attendant to invite Guan Jing to his study. Without waiting for Guan Jing to take the lead, Le he Dang took the initiative to say, "Guan situ came to my Mansion by himself. I don''t know what to tell you?"


    "Your Highness, I''m sorry."


    In fact, Guan Jing despised the merchant background of Le he Dang. But after all, Le he Dang was Gongsun Zan''s fourth younger brother, and he also had Wang Jue in his body, so his attitude was quite gentle.


    Le he said, "tell me, what are you doing here?"


    Guan Jing said, "I''ll report to your highness. I''m summoned by your Majesty''s order."


    "What''s your command?" he said


    Guan Jing replied: "Your Majesty once again worships your highness as the envoy of the state of Dayan. Please send your highness to the state of Qin to negotiate with Zhang Xiu and make a pact so that Zhang Xiu will not invade the state of Dayan in the coming year. Because your majesty has killed Liu Bei and completed the conditions for Zhang Xiu. "


    "I''m going again?"


    Happy when frown, a frown. From the bottom of his heart, although he works for Zhang Xiu, when he goes to see Zhang Xiu, he is always a little uneasy and under great pressure.


    Zhang Xiu was staring at a pair of indifferent eyes, happy when all uncomfortable.


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty trusts his highness and relies on him, so he can only go there. Now the state is difficult, if this can make Zhang Xiu delay the attack on Yan. In that case, there will be a chance for our country to ease up and resist the great Qin army. "


    After a pause, Guan Jing said: "Your Highness is the king of the state of Dayan. He and the state of Dayan are both prosperous and at a loss. Therefore, I sincerely ask your highness to send an envoy again to facilitate the decision of Zhang Xiu''s strike."


    After listening to the music, he sighed in his heart.


    It''s just that. I have to go.


    In particular, Gongsun Zan had already issued an imperial edict. At this time, he could not resist any more.


    Le he thought about it and asked: "we should urge Zhang Xiu to stop fighting and not attack the state of Yan for the time being. So, what is the bottom line of our country? At least, I have to have a bottom to negotiate with Zhang Xiu. "


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty said that as long as it does not involve courtship or territorial separation, the rest can be decided by your highness in a word."


    "I know!"


    He nodded and answered.


    Guan Jing stood up, folded his hands, bowed to le he, and said, "please, your highness."


    Le he Dang waved his hand and said, "it''s not necessary to do that. I''m going to make an envoy for myself. As you said, the king and the state of Yan are both prosperous, and both are at a loss. "


    After a pause, he said: "as long as the swallow is good, I can enjoy the glory and wealth. However, it is estimated that this trip will probably cost countless money and food, and even have to pay war horses. Guan situ and Zhang Xiu, in case the lion opens his mouth, what do you say? "


    Guan Jing replied: "Your Highness, as long as it''s about food, money and war horses, it''s easy to do. After all, our finances are barely passable today. "


    "As soon as the conditions are met, you will see to it."


    "In a word, we must delay the war and give your majesty time to recruit and train again. As long as we slow down, we will have the chance to fight against Zhang Xiu and keep the state of Dayan. "


    "Moreover, after more time, your majesty will be able to free his hand to beat the Wuhuan and Xianbei people in the north. These damned Wuhuan and Xianbei people, your majesty ordered them to send troops to help, but they didn''t want to


    Guan Jing said: "when your majesty knocks Wuhuan and Xianbei and orders them to send troops, they will have more strength. When the time comes, they will have greater confidence to fight against Zhang Xiu. As long as it''s not too much, it can be promised. "


    "I know."


    He nodded his head, but his brow picked.


    He heard a piece of news.


    As for Xianbei and Wuhuan, this is something he didn''t pay attention to before, which may be beneficial to Daqin.


    Yue he asked: "Guan situ, under normal circumstances, whether he is Wu Huan or Xian Bei, he is scared by his majesty. Your majesty will go down and let them send troops. Why do these Hu people dare to refuse? "


    Guan Jing sighed: "what''s the matter? Naturally, these Wuhuan and Xianbei also know the situation of Dayan state. Therefore, it was determined that the state of Dayan did not have enough strength to fight, so it did not send troops. These damned Hu people should have attacked harder in the past, otherwise they would not listen to your Majesty''s orders now. "


    Le he Dang said: "indeed, your Majesty was too gentle to these Hu people at the beginning."Guan Jing said: "in fact, it''s not too mild. After all, it was not easy for him to crusade against Wuhuan and Xianbei and completely destroy them. All in all, it will take your majesty enough time to beat them. "


    "I understand!"


    Le he Dang has a smile on his face.


    He thinks he has inquired into an important piece of news. When he tells Zhang Xiu about it, he will see what Zhang Xiu will do with it.


    Le he Dang and Guan Jing said a word, are testing the news of the court. After all, in the past, although he was the king of Yan, in fact, he didn''t have much real power in his hands. He was just a king, but he had a lot of glory and wealth.


    Now, if you need him as an envoy, you have to let him know a lot of news.


    In this way, how can we negotiate.


    Le he Dang got a lot of information. At the end, he said, "Guan situ, I have a good talk with you. I know the situation. Time is pressing. Today, I''m leaving for Gaoyang County to meet Zhang Xiu. All in all, I try my best. If not, there is no way. I hope Zhang Xiu won''t embarrass me. "


    Guan Jing said: "Your Highness is going to negotiate. Zhang Xiu will certainly not make trouble for your highness. Guan is here. I wish your highness every success and return as soon as possible. "


    "Thank you very much."


    Happy when is also a solemn answer.


    After seeing off Guan Jing, Le he Dang didn''t delay any more. He quickly packed his bags and rode south. In this cold day, riding south, especially in many places, is frozen, and the speed of driving is affected. Even if the horses are wrapped in horseshoes, they are also affected.


    In late January, Le he Dang arrived in Gaoyang County.


    At this time, the weather eased slightly. With the winter sun, the snow began to melt. When Le Hedang arrived at Gaoyang County, he came to the place where Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed. After being informed, he entered Zhang Xiu''s army tent and met Zhang Xiu.


    Le he should salute and say, "I''m in a humble position. I''d like to meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "give me a seat!"


    The waiter came to the table. He knelt down and sat down, but he was serious and solemn. In front of Zhang Xiu, Le he should have great pressure, so he dare not take it lightly.


    Le he took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, this time, Gongsun Zan has killed Liu Bei. He asked me to take charge of the negotiation as an envoy. I hope your majesty will keep his promise and not attack Yan for the time being. "

 Chapter 1064

    Zhang Xiu didn''t mention the negotiation at all. She said, "what''s the point? Gongsun Zan asked you to negotiate. What''s the bottom line of Gongsun Zan''s negotiation?"


    Le he said: "in reply to your majesty, Gongsun Zan''s bottom line is that as long as it doesn''t involve courtship or land cutting, he can consider and agree. I expect Gongsun Zan will agree to the rest. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to smile.


    Gongsun Zan really took the bait.


    Kill Liu Bei first.


    Now let''s recognize it.


    For Zhang Xiu, with the whole premise, it is not difficult for him to wipe out Gongsun Zan.


    What''s more, for Zhang Xiu, to deal with Gongsun Zan is not necessarily to go through war. When Gongsun Zan was trapped in the state of Yan, there were many ways to deal with him.


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "how can I be happy? What should I do


    Le he Dang said: "in reply to your majesty, I think Gongsun Zan can take out grain, cloth, silk, money and horses. Although today''s state of Yan is still passable. "


    "In fact, Youzhou, after all, is located in the northernmost part of the city. It is not as prosperous as Jizhou, and the life of the local people is not so easy. Once Gongsun Zan was asked to give a lot of money and food, it would be a heavy blow to the state of Yan. "


    "Your Majesty can ask Gongsun Zan to give you food first, and then find a reason to attack Gongsun Zan. In a word, the initiative is in your Majesty''s hands. It''s easy to deal with Gongsun Zan. "


    Le Hedang made suggestions.


    Today''s happiness is to consider Zhang Xiu wholeheartedly.


    Zhang Xiu smiles. She doesn''t comment on Le he Dang''s suggestion. Instead, she asks, "Gongsun Zan is your elder brother. Are you willing to help me and deal with your elder brother?"


    Le he zhengse said: "Your Majesty, Gongsun Zan is mean and ungrateful. On the surface, although I am his sworn brother, in fact, Gongsun Zan did not let me take part in government affairs, did not let me take charge of the army, he gave me an empty king, and there was nothing else."


    After a pause, Le he continued: "I don''t exist in Dayan. Gongsun Zan would not have come to me if he had not been an envoy this time. What''s more, your Majesty''s crusade against Dayan is a natural response. It''s a pleasure to follow your majesty. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "so you think, ask for how much food, cloth and war horse, is the most appropriate."


    "I would like to tell you that the most suitable ones are 150000 stone grains, 10000 pieces of silk, 6000 Jin of gold and 6000 horses. This amount should be the most reasonable. "


    Zhang xiudao: "why?"


    Le he Dang said: "I once asked Guan Jing about the situation of grain. Now I ask Gongsun Zan to take out 150000 stone grain. Although he is in pain, he will certainly agree in order to stabilize the situation. If there is more, it will be difficult. As for silk, gold and war horses, this is the same thing. After taking out so many materials, it also has a certain impact on the whole state of Yan. "


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "what''s the point of being happy? As long as you work for me steadfastly, as long as you are upright, I will give you a generous reward after the destruction of the state of Yan."


    "Thank you


    When you listen to the music, you will be happy.


    This is his chance.


    What he wanted was wealth in this life. What''s more, when he was in the state of Yan, he was very cautious and didn''t do anything illegal. He was just doing business, so he was very confident in himself.


    Zhang Xiu said: "according to the conditions you put forward, go back and inform Gongsun Zan that it must be sent to Jizhou border before the end of February. If Gongsun didn''t send it, I would send troops to attack Yan. As for you, you are still under Gongsun Zan. If necessary, I will arrange for someone to contact you. "


    "Thank you


    How can we be happy.


    The last time I saw Zhang Xiu, he was scared and even incontinent. But this time, Zhang Xiu did not put on airs, so in the face of Zhang Xiu, even though he was in awe, his heart was still good. After all, this time, he got Zhang Xiu''s promise.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "step back!"


    "Here it is


    If you bend down, you will turn around and step down.


    Just as he got to the gate of the camp, he suddenly turned around and said, "Your Majesty, I almost forgot one more thing. It may also be quite important to your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Le he zhengse said: "the reason Gongsun Zan admitted counseling this time, the reason he asked for peace, is to prepare to accumulate strength, to recruit soldiers and his majesty to fight again."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s OK. I''m not afraid of his army. Even if there are a large number of troops, they are vulnerable. Even the last army of Yan was defeated in my hands, not to mention the recruitment now. "


    Le he continued: "Your Majesty is wise, but now Gongsun Zan is preparing to transfer troops from Wuhuan and Xianbei. Before that, Gongsun Zan arranged for people to go north and ordered Wuhuan and Xianbei to send troops to help, but both refused. Gongsun Zan was very angry. Today, Gongsun Zan still hasn''t given up. He still wants to beat Wuhuan and Xianbei to force them to send troops. "When Zhang Xiu heard this, her brows rose.


    This is something we should pay attention to. If Wuhuan and Xianbei intervene, the situation will change.


    This is something to pay attention to.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "you should pay close attention to the affairs between Wuhuan and Xianbei. As soon as there is a situation, the news will come out. When you return to Jicheng, I will arrange the royal guards to contact you so that you can keep in touch and send messages in time. "


    "Here it is


    How to be happy.


    Zhang Xiu said, "is there anything else?"


    "No!"


    How can you shake your head.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and she turned back. After Le he Dang retreated, Zhang Xiu ordered people to call Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang song, saying the conditions of Le he Dang.


    Then, Zhang Xiuzheng said, "it''s good to get a batch of grain, money and horses from Gongsun Zan without a single soldier. From this point of view, Gongsun Zan has been in a weak position. He wanted to delay time in order to recover his strength, so he even asked Wuhuan and Xianbei to send troops to help him. "


    Jia Xu said with a smile: "this is the general trend. Even if Wuhuan and Xianbei send troops, the state of Yan will not last long. What''s more, Yan is not a rich country. It is a great burden for Yan to suddenly take out 150000 stone grain, 10000 pieces of silk, 6000 Jin of gold and 6000 horses. It is not difficult for your majesty to win this time. "


    Zhang Song said, "Your Majesty, are we going to find a way to attack Gongsun Zan and destroy Gongsun Zan when we receive grain and money?"


    "Of course not!"


    Zhang Xiu squinted and shook her head.


    Zhang Song said: "Your Majesty is ready to abide by the negotiation agreement? But if Gongsun Zan was given enough time. If Gongsun Zan really gets help from Wuhuan and Xianbei, I''m afraid it''s not good for us. After all, Wuhuan and Xianbei are not weak. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wuhuan and Xianbei are not fools. Gongsun Zan had arranged for Wu Huan and Xianbei to send troops to help, but they were refused. Today, Gongsun Zan has to send troops to attack if he wants to succeed. But with our troops stationed at the border of Yan, Gongsun Zan has no strength to deal with Wuhuan and Xianbei. "


    Zhang Song said: "but it''s a waste of time to deal with Gongsun Zan like this. With our strength, we can go straight into the state of Yan and drive straight into it. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "Gongsun Zan still has some strength, which is not weak. Moreover, I did not say that I would not deal with Gongsun Zan. To deal with Gongsun Zan this time, we should adopt economic means instead of military attack. "


    Zhang song was confused when he heard that.


    This is a little confused.

 Chapter 1065

    Zhang Song fully carried forward the spirit of searching for the bottom, and asked again, "Your Majesty wants to use economic means. I don''t know what kind of means this economic means is? How to deal with Gongsun Zan. Specifically, what are the arrangements? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the so-called economic means is economic blockade. Youzhou is different from Jizhou and Jingzhou. Both Jizhou and Jingzhou are rich and self-sufficient. "


    "Even our external blockade has little impact on such rich places as Jizhou and Jingzhou. But for Youzhou, once all the goods and materials are blocked, merchants are not allowed to go north, and any goods and materials are not allowed to enter Youzhou, it will have a great impact on Youzhou. "


    "The most important thing is that this time Gongsun Zan had to compensate a lot of food and money, making Youzhou, which was not so rich, even poorer."


    Zhang xiudao said: "this is the means to punish Gongsun Zan."


    "A man who is poor to the core, no matter how much he does, is dying. When you can''t get more salt, iron and grain, you have to be self-sufficient. "


    "When Gongsun Zan was unable to satisfy himself, he had to exploit the common people and strengthen the army in order to deal with the attack of Qin. This led to a vicious circle. In the end, the situation in Youzhou would be more and more broken."


    "In addition, we can also arrange for some businessmen to enter Youzhou to operate. In short, prices will be raised, so that the whole Youzhou will be in turmoil."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "this blockade will be a nightmare for Gongsun Zan."


    "Hiss!"


    Zhang Song finally understood everything.


    He understood roughly, this is a blockade, all can supply Youzhou, all blockade. In the past, there were countless merchants going north to transport grain or other materials, but after Zhang Xiu blocked the pass, everything changed, and Youzhou had to rely on itself.


    Zhang Song solemnly said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Sima Yi also said: "Your Majesty''s move didn''t attack Gongsun Zan, but in essence, it was tantamount to drawing money from the bottom of the pot. Such means are really powerful. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty''s plan will be successful. It''s the first time I''ve heard of such a way of war, but just as your majesty said, it''s the most suitable means for Youzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "after Gongsun Zan''s grain and cloth are delivered, it can be operated."


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Everyone spoke together.


    One by one, when they looked at Zhang Xiu, they were full of admiration. However, this is not surprising. After all, what Zhang Xiu has done is not just one or two things, but also beneficial to Daqin.


    After Zhang Xiu made a plan, Le he Dang was already on his way, and quickly went back. Because at this time of the weather, one more day will be warm one day, after all, has been approaching the beginning of spring.


    Even though it''s still cold in the north, it''s actually much better than when it''s coldest.


    It''s spring in February when Le he returns to Ji City.


    On February 2, the dragon looks up.


    Everything revives.


    For the state of Yan, it''s time to cultivate, but the land in Youzhou is poor and there is not much development, so although the people are farming, it''s not as easy as in the south.


    After all, today''s economy is limited.


    Le he didn''t care about the cultivation of Yan state. He only knew that he wanted to carry out Zhang Xiu''s order so that Qin state could be unified earlier. He went straight into the palace and into the main hall.


    For Gongsun Zan, he could not wait to come back earlier to know the situation. So as soon as we get the news of Le he Dang''s return, we can''t wait to meet him in the hall.


    Gongsun Zan couldn''t wait to say, "fourth younger brother, what''s the situation of this mission?"


    "It''s done!"


    Le he zhengse said: "but Zhang Xiu, also put forward the conditions, and even quite harsh."


    Gongsun Zan said: "what conditions?"


    Le he replied: "to your majesty, the conditions for Zhang Xiu are 150000 stone grains, 10000 pieces of silk, 6000 Jin of gold and 6000 horses. There is no room for any change in this condition, and Zhang song must be sent to the Jizhou border by the end of this month, otherwise Zhang Xiu will have to attack. "


    "Hiss!"


    Gongsun Zan took a cool breath.


    150000 stone grain, 10000 pieces of silk, 6000 Jin of gold and 6000 horses were not a small amount, even enough to make his flesh ache.


    Gongsun Zan''s face changed again and again.


    It''s too hard to choose.


    Gongsun Zan thought about it and asked, "fourth brother, didn''t you fight for it?"


    Le he zhengse said: "Your Majesty, it''s not that my younger brother doesn''t fight for it. It''s Zhang Xiu who insists that there will be so many. You didn''t see that battle at that time. Zhang Xiu mobilized all the generals under her command and assumed the posture of killing people. "


    "My younger brother also tried his best to fight for it. He said that our country was sincere in seeking peace and resolving conflicts. But the problem is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t agree at all. Even his younger brothers were sold miserably, saying that Yan was no better than Jin or Qin. ""Yan country is a poor place."


    "However, Zhang Xiu still firmly refused. Therefore, there is no way for my younger brother. My younger brother had no choice but to agree. However, it depends on your Majesty''s decision. "


    Le he continued: "if your majesty does not agree, you can break the contract. Anyway, as long as it''s a breach of contract, that is, a war with Zhang Xiu, it doesn''t matter. "


    Gongsun Zan snorted and said: "fourth brother, it''s easy for you to talk about the war with Zhang Xiu. Our current strength is unable to compete with Zhang Xiu, and we are unable to fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "Alas..."


    Gongsun Zan sighed.


    That rough cheek, full of helpless and sad.


    Gongsun Zan was clear about the economic situation of the state of Yan. It was not easy to take out more than 100000 stone grain at one time. Even there were war horses and cloth, which made Gongsun Zan headache.


    Of course, Gongsun Zan was able to take it out, but the problem was that after giving so much money and food to Zhang Xiu, it had a huge impact on the state of Yan, because his Treasury lost a lot of stored food, and the loss was huge.


    Le he asked: "Your Majesty, is this treaty complied with?"


    "Sure!"


    Gongsun Zan is biting his teeth, but he has no choice.


    He wanted to refuse, but the problem was that once he refused, it would be a disaster for Yan. Of course, Gongsun Zan also knew that giving Zhang Xiu food and money was a chronic suicide.


    But even if he knew, Gongsun Zan couldn''t help it.


    Gongsun Zan immediately arranged an internal servant to call Guan Jing. After Guan Jing entered, Gongsun Zan directly said Zhang Xiu''s conditions and agreed to them.


    Finally, Gongsun Zan said, "Guan situ, give Zhang Xiu food, horses, cloth, etc., immediately prepare, and then arrange people to send them out of Jicheng immediately, to the Jizhou border. Zhang Xiu ordered that the goods should be delivered at the end of February. Now it''s early this month, and we don''t have much time left. After calming Zhang Xiu, we will consider the development of strength. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing solemnly responded.


    For Guan Jing, he also knew that this clause had a great influence on the state of Yan. But Yan country''s national strength is weak, weak country has no diplomacy, does not have enough power, he also has no way.


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty, although Zhang Xiu has promised. But I think that we still have to set up checkpoints and garrison troops at the border. Once Zhang Xiu is killed, there will be resistance. "


    Gongsun Zan said: "at this time, you look at the arrangement."


    Guan Jing said, "I obey you!"


    Gongsun Zan waved his hand. Guan Jing and Le walked out of the hall together. When they got out of the hall, Guan Jing looked at Le he Dang and said, "Your Highness, the situation in Dayan is not good now. Your Highness has countless shops and money. I wonder if your highness can help the Treasury and support your majesty? "


    Yue he said in a deep voice: "Guan Jing, don''t deceive people too much. You asked me to go as an envoy, and now you''ve decided on the king. If the second brother, the third brother and others also agree, I have no opinion. But it''s impossible for me to do good by myself. "


    With that, when the big sleeve of Le he brushed, he turned and left.


    When Le Hedang returned to his house, he was thinking about the connection with the royal guards. During the day, no one came to visit, but in the evening, someone came to visit. They were the people of the royal guards.


    The person who can''t come here is not the person in charge of Jicheng royal guards. He is just an ordinary royal guards. He tells lehedang where to contact him. If lehedang has any news to send, he can go to the contact place to inform him.


    In addition, there is no news about the royal guards.


    There''s no need to be too happy.


    For Le Hedang, it is the best result to contact the royal guards of Ji City.

 Chapter 1066

    At the end of February, although it was still cold in late spring, the sun was shining in the sky. The sun was shining on the body. It was very warm and comfortable, and I didn''t feel anything.


    A team is advancing slowly.


    This team was the one under Gongsun Zan who escorted grain, silk, horses and gold. Because there are so many materials, the team is winding and long, forming a long line across the official road.


    On the border of Jizhou, Zhang Xiu, with a few troops, has been stationed at the border.


    The army is still in Gaoyang County for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu has been informed that the escorted grain and war horses are on their way. When Gongsun Zan''s grain, money, etc. arrived at the border, the time went by a little bit, and only on the second day of March did he deliver all the grain, war horses, etc.


    Zhang Xiu took all the supplies, and then sent the troops back.


    Didn''t say much to each other.


    And the person in charge of escorting food was also afraid of being slaughtered by Zhang Xiu, so he left soon.


    Zhang Xiu went back to the border to settle down and arranged for people to put all the grain and other materials into the warehouse. Then, Zhang Xiu issued a ban, forbidding merchants to go north, forbidding merchants to transport any materials, whether it is grain, salt and iron, cloth, silk, or war horses, all materials are prohibited.


    Youzhou merchants can go south with supplies, but they can''t go north with supplies. The border between Youzhou and Jizhou is completely blocked, and no more merchants enter.


    For Zhang Xiu, there is no influence on the situation. After all, under the rule of Zhang Xiu, the state of Qin was rich in materials, without lack of food, war horses, or money.


    However, the border blockade between Qin and Yan had a huge impact on Yan.


    The most direct impact is on businessmen.


    In the past, businessmen went back and forth to Youzhou, Jizhou and other places to sell goods, but now they have blocked the border, allowed them to leave Youzhou but not allowed them to enter Youzhou. As a result, Youzhou has become a backwater and no longer has the chance to make money in Youzhou.


    Countless businessmen left Youzhou and went south to do business. Even the local businessmen in Youzhou are cautious, because everyone can see that the situation is not good, so they must be careful.


    At the beginning, Guan Jing didn''t notice. When the situation was already in full swing, Guan Jingcai found that the situation was not good, because taxes were sharply reduced in a straight line.


    In addition, there was a sharp drop in supplies.


    The prices of many goods also began to rise.


    In particular, the price of grain is almost one price a day, even to the point that there is no market for food. Originally, Gongsun Zan took out countless grains and money. Now, it is even more difficult to stabilize the grain price. After all, there is not much grain in the granary.


    In this case, Guan Jing did not dare to delay and rushed into the palace. When he entered the palace and met Gongsun Zan, he immediately reported: "Your Majesty, the matter is not good."


    Gongsun Zan said, "what happened?"


    Guan Jing zhengse said: "although Zhang Xiu didn''t send troops to attack the state of Yan, he has blocked the border between the state of Yan and the state of Qin. He only allowed our people to leave the state of Yan, and no merchants were allowed to bring food, salt, iron and other materials into the state of Yan. As a result, prices are rising in our country, and the situation is extremely difficult. "


    Guan Jing looked worried and said, "it''s also a thousand dollars. In the past, when prices didn''t fluctuate, it was worth a thousand dollars. But now, we can''t even buy 100 yuan of materials. The territory of Yan is in a mess. Today''s situation is very bad, and it is even difficult for us to mediate. "


    Gongsun Zan heard that, his heart thumped.


    Zhang Xiu is really cunning.


    But now, we take other measures to deal with the state of Yan.


    Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice: "the rest of the salt and iron can be purchased from Liaodong and Koguryo, at least not particularly lacking. As for food, this is the most important thing. Is our food enough to support us today? "


    Guan Jing replied: "our current grain can support us. After all, after giving Zhang Xiu 150000 stone grain, we still have some grain to store. But the problem is that the price of grain is rising, so that the sale of grain is almost suspended, and few businessmen sell grain again. This is not good news for us. "


    Gongsun Zan said: "you order all the grain traders to lower the grain price. If the price of grain does not decrease, all of them will be arrested and prosecuted. "


    "No, your majesty!"


    As soon as Guan Jing heard this, he suddenly became nervous.


    According to Gongsun Zan''s arrangement, the whole Dayan kingdom would be in turmoil immediately.


    Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice: "you should say why not. Now, I am also for the sake of the people to buy food and their livelihood. "


    Guan Jing zhengse said: "Your Majesty, because food is not available now, so the price of food is rising. Everyone knows that food can''t be transported from outside, but we can''t support it by ourselves, so many people don''t sell food outside. If the order is forced, I''m afraid that the only remaining vendors will not sell food any more. In the end, there is no more grain in the market. ""Son of a bitch!"


    Gongsun Zan was angry and said in a deep voice: "this damn Zhang Xiu is really hateful! I gave him food and money. Unexpectedly, he still had such dark tricks. "


    After a pause, Gongsun Zan asked again, "Guan situ, what do you think we should do to solve this problem in the current situation. Only in this way can the price of food be restored and the situation be stabilized. "


    Guan Jing shook his head and said, "it''s impossible to stabilize. The most important thing is that because of the downturn in business, taxes have plummeted, almost 70% less. If we don''t have enough money, it will also lead to difficulties in the state of Yan. "


    After hearing this, Gongsun Zan frowned even more.


    The reduction of taxes had a huge impact on the state of Yan. In addition to the land tax, the business tax is also a crucial part. If the tax falls sharply, and Gongsun Zan has to maintain the expenditure of countless soldiers, that is a big problem.


    You can''t do without money.


    Everything needs money and food to run, otherwise the whole country of Yan will fall into the brink of collapse.


    Gongsun Zan said: "now, can we just watch the situation get worse and watch Zhang Xiu''s plot succeed step by step. I will never agree to this. "


    Guan Jing thought about it in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, although the domestic prices are soaring, the life of the people is hard. But for the state of Yan, it can be maintained for the time being. Because the surrounding areas of Yan state are blocked, there is no solution. "


    Immediately, Guan Jing said, "when we really get into trouble, the only way we can adopt is to take the big families of the state of Yan and get food and money from them to maintain the operation of the state of Yan. Otherwise, there is nothing we can do. "


    Gongsun Zan sighed: "just go one step and see one step. Today''s situation, though unfavourable. However, it''s not too late. As the situ of Yan state, you should pay close attention to the situation in Jicheng and even in the country. Don''t make any trouble


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing answers and turns to leave.


    But Guan Jing''s face is still a worried look, it is the current environment, it is too bad.


    Food is extremely scarce.


    Money is also devaluing.


    The whole state of Yan was already in turmoil, which Guan Jing could not solve.

 Chapter 1067

    When Guan Jing returned to the government office, he sat down to deal with the affairs. But now Guan Jing is also extremely anxious, but he has no solution to the current situation, and can only take a step by step.


    After all, he was just a situ of Yan.


    Just a papermaker.


    Guan Jing was upset for a while, then he put aside his worries for a while and continued to deal with his own affairs. After all, in the current situation, the situation in Yan is difficult, and there are countless things to do.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there was an attendant in.


    Guan Jing asked, "what''s the matter?"


    The waiter replied, "I''ll tell you back. I''d like to see you in the court."


    "Please


    Guan Jing orders.


    In a short time, a group of officials from the imperial court of the state of Yan entered. All of these officials were solemn and worried.


    When they saw Guan Jing, they bowed and stood separately.


    It''s just that no one spoke.


    Guan Jing looked around and said, "come on, what are you doing together?"


    "Situ, we are here for salary."


    At this time, a slightly old man in the crowd stood up. His name was Wei Wei, who was Taichang of the state of Yan. Wei Wei was appointed as a famous scholar in Jicheng.


    Wei Wei was in his early fifties. He stroked his beard under his jaw and continued: "during this period, the price of food has been rising, so that the rest of the supplies are also rising. Our salary includes a certain amount of food and some silk. But today, silk is also constantly devalued. Originally a piece of silk can buy materials, now, even once half of the things can not buy ah. Situ, if we go on like this, I''m afraid we can''t live any longer. So, please understand us. "


    As soon as he spoke, the rest echoed.


    On all faces, there is a look of approval. It''s really hard today.


    Of course, it''s not that there is no grain in each family, and it''s not that they can''t survive. But now the same salary, get hand to buy less things, all one wants more.


    You can''t suffer with a little bit.


    Guan Jing heard the words of the people, and his face was very solemn. Even in his eyes, there was a trace of horror.


    It''s not good!


    Previously, he went to the palace to meet Gongsun Zan. He wanted to stabilize the price of food. But now when I heard what people said, I suddenly found that the situation was not so simple.


    Today, it is not only the rising food prices that we are facing, but the rest of the world is also affected. For example, the salaries of officials are the same, but the problem is that the value is much lower, which leads to the floating of officials'' minds.


    What about the lowest level soldiers?


    Guan Jing is also clear about the situation of officials. Today''s officials, at least, are not unable to survive. They just come to complain. But the soldiers in the army are different. Once many people are short of money and food, their families will not survive.


    The whole army is prone to turbulence.


    It''s over!


    Guan Jing''s heart suddenly became tense. He was sitting upright, but at this moment, because he thought of the consequences, he was sitting on the ground, and he was lost for a moment.


    Because of the people''s shouting, Guan Jing came back to God.


    Wei Wei said again: "Guan situ, what do you think of this. You are the Assistant Minister of the central government. Almost all government affairs are arranged by you. This matter is related to the livelihood of all of you. Please understand us


    "Please speak to your majesty!"


    "Guan situ, you are situ, so you don''t need to think about making a living. No matter what, you don''t have to worry about food and clothing. We in the court are different! "


    "Please report to your majesty."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, Guan Jing''s mouth was constantly opened, his words were full of noise, and even his heart was restless. He really didn''t expect that things would be so complicated at this stage.


    Guan Jing took a deep breath and said, "I already know what you mean. Next, I will meet with your majesty and mention it to you. As a matter of fact, your majesty has asked me to deal with the rising food prices. So don''t worry. Just wait for the news. "


    Wei Wei said: "so good, so good."


    The rest were relieved.


    No longer saying much, they all thank Guan Jing one after another, and then each began to leave.


    Guan Jing looks at the people leaving, but his face is helpless. In fact, under the current situation, he is helpless and has no solution, because the prices are in disorder and there is not enough grain to stabilize the prices of grain and the rest.


    Guan Jing sat in his office, staring at the beam in a daze.When Guan Jing was helpless, he was happy.


    In his study, Le he Dang was collecting the latest news. When he learned that the Minister of the imperial court had found Guan Jing, and Qi Qi had asked Guan Jing to increase his salary, he began to smile.


    He is not in a hurry.


    Because he had already surrendered to Daqin.


    If he didn''t submit to Daqin, he must be very anxious now, because it is related to his own vital interests. But because he became a member of the state of Qin, the more difficult Dayan was, the more happy he was.


    Happy when the heart, but not willing to do so, looking at, he hopes to participate in them, so as to harvest, in order to get the praise of Zhang Xiu.


    Le he immediately arranged for someone to call the steward of his palace.


    The housekeeper is his confidant.


    Le he looked at the housekeeper and said, "make an arrangement and let people spread the news. They say that the imperial court can''t afford to pay now, and the officials have already made trouble with Guan Jing. Besides, soldiers in the army can hardly afford their salaries. This news should spread to the barracks as far as possible. "


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper bowed down.


    The housekeeper knows that Le Hedang has been subordinated to the Qin Dynasty. Therefore, the housekeeper has no conflict with the arrangement of Le Hedang. Up to now, this is the most appropriate arrangement.


    Only in this way can the musician be saved.


    After the housekeeper left, Le he Dang''s face was full of expectation. He was looking forward to the mutiny of the army. Once the army mutinied, that was the most anticipated. At that time, the state of Yan could not resist the attack of the Qin army.


    Le he Dang was originally a big businessman. He had great strength in Jicheng. It was easy for him to spread rumors. The housekeeper went to arrange things. In less than one day, the news had spread all over the city.


    In the army, there is even more chaos.


    One by one, the soldiers were discussing the current situation.


    Every man has his own abacus, and so do the soldiers in the army. They all know that after the soaring prices, the salaries they get will not be able to support their families or spend at all. So the soldiers in the army began to learn from the officials in the imperial court and asked the superior generals one after another. At this level, the whole army was in an uproar.


    This matter a little big, and finally poked in front of Guan Jing, Guan Jing learned, dare not delay. After all, when it comes to the army, he can only go to the palace to see Gongsun Zan, but the final answer is to directly suppress the people who caused the rebellion.


    Guan Jing has no choice but to go on.


    The officers and men in the army are even more alarmed by this level of Herald.

 Chapter 1068

    The situation in Jicheng, especially the soldiers in the army, were in a state of panic. Some soldiers even began to flee. Many of them were reluctant to stay in the army, and many of them fled.


    The whole Ji City is already a storm.


    Guan Jing is too busy to hide in the dark, but he is very happy.


    His heart was full of joy.


    Because the more turbulent it is, the more meritorious it will be. Le he Dang also sent away all the things he had done through the royal guards. Sometimes, he even sent out as many as five or six letters a day.


    When the army is in chaos, Le he Dang has sent a letter to the royal guards of Jicheng, asking the royal guards of Jicheng to contact Zhang Xiu and ask Zhang Xiu to fight. Now the whole city of Jicheng is in turmoil and people are in a panic. Even the whole state of Yan was like this, which was suitable for attacking Gongsun Zan.


    Jicheng responsible for the royal guards got the news, then quickly spread.


    The news quickly spread back to the Jizhou border.


    Because today''s Zhang Xiu is stationed at the border of Jizhou, so as to handle the information at any time. After all, Jizhou border is far from Jicheng. If you run at full speed now, you can reach Jicheng in one day at most. No snow road, no weather, speed can improve a lot.


    In addition, not only has Zhang Xiu been stationed at the border, but even his army, which was originally stationed near the county seat of Gaoyang County, has now been stationed at the border.


    As long as Zhang Xiu gives an order, he can send troops at any time.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu, holding the news sent back by Wang Yue in her hand, looks at the turbulent situation in Jicheng and reveals the news on her face. Seeing Le he Dang''s action and even inciting chaos, Zhang Xiu is also glad to surrender Le he Dang. It would not have been so convenient for the royal guards to incite chaos in Jicheng if it had not been for their surrender.


    It''s a great achievement to be happy.


    Especially today''s Yan army is in chaos, which makes Zhang Xiu happy.


    In the land of Yan and Zhao, there are many generous and Elegy people.


    What''s more, many brave people.


    For Gongsun Zan''s strength, Zhang Xiu never underestimated, so for Gongsun Zan''s strength, Zhang Xiu can weaken itself, that is, to weaken as much as possible. Today, Gongsun Zan''s military strength has been constantly reduced, and even many soldiers left, which is conducive to the destruction of Yan.


    After putting down the letter, Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yue, call all the generals, Sima Yi, Jia Xu, Zhang Song and others to the Chinese Army''s tent. Now, it''s time to crusade against Gongsun Zan. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue got the order and went down to inform immediately.


    After a short time, everyone came to Zhang Xiu''s account.


    There is not much doubt about the crusade against Gongsun Zan, so in fact, one by one, now on the border of Youzhou and Jizhou, they are quite relaxed and do not feel much burden.


    After all, it is not difficult to wipe out Gongsun Zan.


    After the ceremony, all the people took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu came straight to the point, quickly said what happened in Jicheng, then said: "today''s Youzhou is a mess. Gongsun Zan''s strength was also weakened to the extreme. If this situation continues, it will have a great impact on Youzhou, and it will not last for a long time. So now it''s time for us to crusade against Gongsun Zan. "


    Sima Yi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have already written an attack against Gongsun Zan. Please read it."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "seriously?"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t give any orders for this attack against Gongsun Zan, because she had never sent troops before and lived in the border for the time being. Unexpectedly, Sima Yi had prepared the attack in advance, which was the best.


    Zhang song takes a look at Sima Yi.


    He secretly regretted in his heart. Why didn''t he expect to write the denunciation in advance? If we are ready in advance, we will not let Sima Yi take the lead again. It''s really unpleasant.


    Sima Yi said, "please read it!"


    Immediately, Sima Yi took out a letter from her sleeve, handed it to Wang Yue and handed it to Zhang Xiu. After reading it, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "yes, yes, this letter is worth tens of thousands of troops. Wang Yue immediately arranged for the royal guards to spread in the territory of Yan. I, Zhang Xiu, now send troops to fight against the bandits and save thousands of people in the state of Yan. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue took it over and copied it in his sleeve.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on the generals. He ordered: "Gan Ning, listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Ganning immediately stood up, looking excited.


    For Gan Ning, this is his chance to make contributions. As long as he is a vanguard, he can go to Jicheng first, and then break Jicheng to win Gongsun Zan.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you lead the fierce tiger army under your command as a pioneer. First step into the state of Yan, straight to Jicheng. I led the rest of the army to Jicheng. In this war, they worked hard to completely destroy the state of Yan and unify the whole country. ""Here it is


    All of them answered.


    For the soldiers in the army, this is a chance to win the first World War. As long as this war defeats the state of Yan, it means that the whole country is under the rule of Daqin.


    This is an opportunity.


    "Great Qin wins all the time!"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu stood up and yelled.


    This sentence ignites the passion of all the soldiers, because it is the general word that ignites the passion of all the soldiers. To be able to participate in this final battle is an honor for all of us, and what we are looking forward to.


    "Great Qin wins all the time!"


    "Great Qin wins all the time!"


    ¡­¡­


    The generals began to shout.


    Even civil servants like Jia Xu, Sima Yi and Zhang Song were excited.


    "Send out


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered.


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, all the people left. The general who should be deployed, the person who should be deployed, the whole army who should be deployed, and the war machine of the whole Qin Dynasty started to work again.


    Everyone, get busy.


    But Zhang Xiu''s Army started, but its speed was far slower than that of the royal guards. Before the vanguard led by Gan Ning entered the territory of Yan, the news spread by the royal guards had spread.


    The denunciation against Gongsun Zan has been thoroughly spread.


    In the territory of Yan, countless people knew about this news, especially Gongsun Zan had originally arranged an army stationed at the border to resist Zhang Xiu''s army, but as soon as Ganning''s fierce tiger army arrived, this army had no resistance at all, and even did not fight, so it immediately surrendered.


    After all, today''s state of Yan is poor in goods and materials, and prices are soaring. The whole state of Yan is in a mess.


    The officers and men in the army also had a hard time.


    In order to avoid the chaos and avoid the impact of soaring prices, the soldiers simply chose to surrender and did not resist the army of Ganning. After the victory of Ganning''s army, only more than 1000 soldiers were left to guard the prisoners and quickly went to Jicheng.


    The city of Jicheng is now in a mess.


    The original Jicheng, as the political center of the state of Yan, was very prosperous. Since the war between Zhang Xiu and Gongsun Zan, the prosperity of Jicheng has been affected. When Zhang Xiu''s economic blockade began, the commerce in Jicheng was almost stagnant, especially the lack of food, salt and other important materials.


    The whole city of thistle is in a mess.


    When the attack against Gongsun Zan came out and the news of Zhang Xiu''s sending troops came out, the whole Jicheng was even more shocked. For ordinary people, this is not a bad thing.


    Because they had a hard time under Gongsun Zan. When Zhang Xiu surrendered, he said that he could not wait to live a good life, so there was not much conflict among the common people.


    But for officials, it''s not the same.


    Countless officials, panic.


    When Guan Jing got the news, his heart sank. After all, Zhang Xiu came and abandoned the previous agreement to send troops. Guan Jing didn''t dare to delay, so he quickly went into the palace to see Gongsun Zan.

 Chapter 1069

    In the main hall, Gongsun Zan looked at Guan Jing and said in a deep voice, "situ, are you in such a hurry? Is it because there is a mutiny in the city, some people are making trouble, or some soldiers are going to make trouble?"


    "No!"


    Guan Jing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, it''s a more serious matter."


    Gongsun Zan said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guan Jing replied: "Zhang Xiu has sent out troops and is coming to kill her. Throughout the city of thistle, the call to attack your Majesty was spread everywhere. This time, Zhang Xiu wants to completely destroy his majesty. "


    Boom!!


    Gongsun Zan''s mind was like thunder.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu.


    How is that possible?


    You know, before the signing of the covenant, but now, Zhang Xiu is treacherous, actually is a direct attack. Gongsun Zan was absent-minded for a short time, because the state of Dayan is now in a mess.


    At this time, he didn''t even know how to deal with it.


    Gongsun Zan also knew what kind of situation Yan was in after being blockaded. Under this premise, Gongsun Zan didn''t even know what to do.


    After a long time, Gongsun Zan returned to his senses. He looked down at Guan Jing and asked, "situ, what can I do?"


    Guan Jing said, "Your Majesty, it''s only a retreat now. Jicheng is in a state of internal chaos. People''s hearts are in turmoil and the morale of the army is unstable. Therefore, it is impossible to defend Jicheng. If you stay in Jicheng, you will be a turtle in a jar. As for the next policy, it is to surrender to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Surrender, no way!"


    Gongsun Zan shook his head and replied that he was not a man like Liu Bei. He was willing to be a running dog.


    He would rather die than surrender.


    Gongsun Zan clenched his fist and said again, "Guan situ, if I choose to fight to the death, how many soldiers in our army will be willing to die if I can defend Jicheng with a probability of 10%


    Guan Jing replied: "Your Majesty, if there is no soaring prices, if there is no blockade of the state of Yan, even if we are surrounded, even if Zhang Xiu is killed, we still have the strength of the first World War."


    After a pause, Guan Jing said, "but now, it''s no good. Because the state of Yan was blockaded, people''s hearts were in turmoil, and the morale of the army was unstable. In recent days, there were still deserters. Under such a premise, it''s like a fool''s dream to keep Jicheng


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu!"


    Gongsun Zan clenched his teeth and opened his mouth. He was extremely angry.


    He really didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would turn back in such a short time, violating the original agreement.


    Gongsun Zan waved his hand and said, "Guan Jing, I don''t want to be a deserter or escape. What''s more, the world is so big, where can we escape? Now Zhang Xiu''s power has swept the world, and it can''t escape. "


    "Now, it''s just a fight to the death."


    "Guan Jing, you followed me in the early years. You have suffered a lot these years. For the time being, you should organize your soldiers to resist. Once Zhang Xiu''s army arrives, it''s impossible for you to do anything, so you''ll drop it. "


    "You can surrender, but I will not. I''m Gongsun Zan, Gongsun Zan of Baima Yicong. I would rather die than surrender to Zhang Xiu. "


    Gongsun Zan''s eyes were full of determination and decisiveness.


    He''s dead to death!


    He''s going to fight to the death!


    Guan Jing said in a deep voice, "is your majesty going to fight to the death?"


    "I want to fight to the death!"


    Gongsun Zan clenched his teeth with a solemn look.


    Guan Jing said: "Your Majesty wants to fight to the end. I''m willing to follow you. If your majesty wants to fight to the death, I have a plan. "


    Gongsun Zan said: "good, good, I am worthy of being the situ I rely on. What are you going to do? "


    Guan Jing said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, please mobilize all the guards, and then go to the barracks to mobilize all the soldiers. In the presence of all the soldiers, his Majesty''s ambition to fight to the death is expounded. As for those who are not willing to fight, let them go, leaving only those who are willing to fight to the death. When Zhang Xiu''s army arrives, his majesty and Zhang Xiu will fight to the end. In this way, we can live up to the reputation of Baima Yicong. "


    "Not bad!"


    After hearing this, Gongsun Zan''s face showed approval.


    Guan Jing''s words are deep in Gongsun Zan''s mind.


    He is not willing to surrender and he is not willing to leave his hometown. Therefore, Gongsun Zan called for his retinue and asked him to put on his armor. He took Guan Jing with him, mobilized all the imperial guards and went straight to the barracks.


    Gongsun Zan arrived at the barracks and immediately summoned all his soldiers.


    Today, there are only more than 30000 people in the army.


    Many soldiers ran away.


    The number of guards brought by Gongsun Zan is more than 40000.


    Gongsun Zan stood on the front stage and looked around at all the soldiers. He said in a loud voice: "I think you all know the news of Zhang Xiu''s killing. I don''t think about right or wrong, or victory or defeat. What I''m thinking about now is the first World War. But I don''t ask you to take part in this stop. ""I am the emperor of Dayan, and I created Baima Yicong."


    "There are countless warriors in Dayan."


    "In our country of Dayan, there is no match for athletes."


    "Today, Gongsun Zan is still proud of the white horse of Dayan. The white horse is upright and upright, and the world can''t resist it. I am the commander of Baima Yicong. In the face of a strong enemy, I will fight to the end


    Gongsun Zan said, "those of you who are willing to fight to death will stay with me. Those who do not want to fight the first world war can leave the barracks now. I want to take part in this last war. It''s better to die than to participate. "


    At this moment, Gongsun Zan had his old domineering spirit.


    Just below, the soldiers began to talk.


    Many soldiers know that the state of Dayan is declining, so they are not willing to fight to the death. When Gongsun Zan finished, some soldiers left.


    With the first soldier''s departure, Gongsun Zan did not order to stop or deal with it. The whole army was in an uproar. More and more soldiers left the school yard to leave.


    There are more than 40000 people, only their heads are moving, and people are leaving.


    Gongsun Zan''s face was completely black.


    He didn''t know how many people would stay and how many would like to stay in the end.


    This is what Gongsun Zan is worried about.


    After a full quarter of an hour or so, the school yard was finally quiet, but the soldiers in the school yard did not have the previous number, and the number was reduced.


    Gongsun Zan can roughly see that the current number of people is 4000 at most.


    There are only four thousand less.


    However, Gongsun Zan''s mood is low, but at least, there are thousands of people willing to fight. Gongsun Zan took a deep breath and said, "thank you. Thank you for believing in me and fighting with me to the end."


    With that, Gongsun Zan bowed deeply to the crowd.


    But Guan Jing exclaimed: "Your Majesty, we are willing to fight to the end."


    "Fight to the end!"


    The rest of the white horses also cried out.


    They are all willing to follow Gongsun Zan, and they are all willing to fight to the end with Gongsun Zan. They all screamed, and their voices were powerful, one after another.


    Gongsun Zan ordered: "Guan Jing!"


    "Yes


    Guan Jing stood below and answered in a loud voice.


    Gongsun Zan said, "take people with you, take out the wine from the warehouse, then kill the chickens and sheep, kill all the meat in the army, and let the soldiers in the army have a good meal. Only after good wine and meat can we have enough spirit. This battle is the last glory of my white horse, and it is the last battle of my white horse. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Jing was ordered to take people to work immediately.


    In less than an hour, the whole camp already has meat fragrance. Gongsun Zan himself took his soldiers to eat meat and drink wine. He talked about the past. He talked about the high spirited days together and the pleasure of fighting against the Hu people and fighting together.


    After a banquet, the morale of the officers and men in the army is all unprecedented.


    This is a group of mourners.


    It''s completely out of the question of life and death.


    Gongsun Zan''s banquet ended, and the sky darkened, and the soldiers also had an early rest in the camp. In the early morning of the next day, with the beating of the war drum in the army, Gongsun Zan raised his troops to call on the soldiers.


    After the army assembled, they set out in a mighty manner.


    All of you, in armor.


    Everybody, they''re on horseback.


    All of us are white horses.


    "Let''s go!"


    Gongsun Zan rode his horse to the front, pointed his long gun to the front, and gave the order. In a flash, the sound of horse''s hooves sounded, and nearly 4000 white horses rushed out of the barracks and went straight to the inherited south city.

 Chapter 1070

    Nearly 4000 people led by Gongsun Zan arrived at the gate of Nancheng in a short time.


    But Gongsun Zan didn''t go up to the city tower. Instead, he ordered the soldiers guarding the city to open the gate of the city, and with the soldiers willing to fight to the death, he came to the outside of the city and stationed in formation. A white horse from the righteous soldiers, Qi Qi array.


    All of us are going to die.


    All of them are bold and fearless. Now, everyone is willing to fight this war. Gongsun Zan waited quietly with people. When he arrived, he saw that there was already an army on the official road in the distance, and it was coming.


    The leader is Gan Ning.


    The fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning has reached the South Gate of Ji City.


    Gongsun Zan saw the fierce tiger army, the infantry in the middle and the cavalry in the two wings. His eyes flashed a light, and he exclaimed: "a man''s life is full of happiness. Kill


    He roared all his life and rushed out with a gun.


    "Kill


    Nearly four thousand white horses, hearing the sound, rushed forward quickly.


    "Boom!"


    One horse rushed out, and 4000 horses trampled on the ground, causing the whole ground outside the south city to shake. The deafening voice, the fierce impact of the Iraqi, shocking.


    Ganning saw Gongsun Zan at the front, and a ferocious smile rose from the corner of his mouth. He was worried that Gongsun Zan would defend Jicheng, so he needed to spend time to attack the city. Now Gongsun Zan took the initiative to kill, and there were only thousands of cavalry around him. It was the best chance to destroy Gongsun Zan. It was the best chance.


    Without any hesitation, Gan Ning raised his sword in his hand and already exclaimed: "Gongsun Zan is in front of us. It''s only recently that we have made great achievements. Fierce tiger army, follow me


    "Kill


    Ganning is also the first step.


    The cavalry of the fierce tiger army, following closely, launched a sprint.


    The whole fierce tiger army was excited, because everyone knew that this was the last battle. In particular, if we can kill more enemies, we can make more contributions.


    One by one, the fierce tiger soldiers charged excitedly.


    Cavalry in the front, infantry in the back.


    Launch a mighty sprint.


    Both sides are facing each other, but in a moment, the two conveniences have met. Gongsun Zan and Gan Ning were at the front. They each carried weapons and chopped each other.


    Gongsun Zan''s martial arts are still on the shelf, but his strength has weakened a lot. He doesn''t even have 50% of his former strength. What''s more, after many years of being king and emperor, he seldom practiced martial arts.


    People who practice martial arts don''t practice for three days.


    Gongsun Zan hasn''t practiced martial arts for several years. His legs are full of flesh and his stomach is protruding. What''s more, he hasn''t given up his hard work in the harem these years. He has already lived up to his former bravery.


    On the contrary, he is willing to practice hard.


    Martial arts has been improving.


    In addition to Zhang Xiu''s monstrous martial arts, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Wang Yue, and Sha Moke are all first-class experts in Zhang Xiu''s army. They are all capable of defeating Gan Ning. With the help of these people, Gan Ning''s martial arts are constantly improving.


    The strength of both sides, a contest will be superior to the decision.


    With the impact of the gun and the sword, Gan Ning''s blade pressed down, and Gongsun Zan couldn''t pull away. As soon as Ganning''s blade is dragged, with the help of the force of downward pressure, once the blade is pulled out in the air, it will be cut down again.


    The cold light flickered, and Gongsun Zan could not avoid it.


    Gongsun Zan bit his teeth and swung his big gun to resist. In the impact just now, he only felt the muscles of his arms tremble, and even his body almost couldn''t bear it. He was about to fall down from the horse''s back, and even his arms were faintly painful.


    Gongsun Zan knew he was invincible.


    But, he and Gan Ning after a fight, unable to evacuate, can only be hard to resist.


    The two weapons collided in an instant.


    "Bang!"


    The sound of violent impact, the sound of pricking eardrum, reverberated in the air. The mighty power is also transmitted to each other from weapons, but Gongsun Zan''s weak power of resistance is directly destroyed by Ganning''s great power. Under the impact of the powerful force, Gongsun Zan hums, and his big gun is knocked out directly.


    Gongsun Zan tore the tiger''s mouth with his weapon, spilled blood and dyed his palm red.


    The pain of his arm made Gongsun Zan''s face painful.


    Even Gongsun Zan felt that his waist and legs were weak, and he couldn''t raise his strength to fight. At this moment, Gongsun Zan really found that he was old and had no strength at all. He could not carry the attack.


    Gan Ning is not affected. After a knife falls, the blade turns outward, and when the knife is lifted, it is lifted up and cut out.


    With a flash of lightning, the blade broke Gongsun Zan''s armor, broke into his flesh and blood, and spread from Gongsun Zan''s belly to his left shoulder.


    Red blood, gurgling.


    Gongsun Zan couldn''t stop whining and roaring. It was too painful.Gan Ning once again slashed Gongsun Zan. This Gongsun Zan in pain, even did not have time to escape, saw Gan Ning cut off, heart sighed.


    It''s over!


    He''s done!


    Gongsun Zan simply closed his eyes and waited to die, but suddenly, there was a bang in his ear.


    Ganning cut down the sword, hit on a long sword. Gongsun Zan opened his eyes to see, but Guan Jing came. Although Guan Jing was a scholar, he didn''t want to escape and fought with Gongsun Zan.


    Unfortunately, Guan Jing''s strength is too weak.


    His sword was only slightly resisted, and the sword was knocked away.


    Gan Ning didn''t kill Gongsun Zan with one knife. As soon as the blade turned, it was a horizontal cutting. The blade cuts out, leaving a sharp light in the air. The next moment has arrived at Guan Jing''s neck.


    Poof!


    Blood splashes, Guan Jing falls to the ground.


    Gan Ning chopped Guan Jing with one knife, and without any pause, he chopped Gongsun Zan down again. Gongsun Zan is now unarmed and has no weapons to resist. Seeing the falling blade, he instinctively pulls out the sword block around his waist.


    However, Gongsun Zan and Gan Ning are not in the same series. At the moment when the blade collides with the blade, the sword is knocked off, and the blade continues to fall on Gongsun Zan''s chest.


    A knife down, flesh and blood flying.


    Gongsun Zan opens his mouth and wails. He is biting his teeth and wants to turn his horse to leave. But where can Ganning let Gongsun Zan leave? He raises it decisively and cuts it down directly.


    Gongsun Zan''s body is divided.


    With the blood of the head, bang fell to the ground, bone Lu Lu rolled a few circles after stopping.


    Gongsun Zan''s body immediately fell to the ground.


    Gan Ning rushed up on his horse, bent down, picked up Gongsun Zan''s revelation, and exclaimed: "Gongsun Zan has been killed, and those who have fallen will not be killed. There is no amnesty for those who resist. "


    Although Gan Ning cried out, there were still countless soldiers who resisted and no one surrendered. These three thousand and nearly four thousand white horses were originally determined to die, but now they are fighting to the end.


    The fighting continues.


    More and more white horses have been killed and injured.


    However, this kind of fighting lasted less than half an hour and was completely killed. From the beginning to the end, there was no white horse from surrender, no white horse from retreat, all died.


    Such a white horse, even if it is Gan Ning, is also greatly admired. He did not count the losses, nor did he stop to rest. He gave a direct order: "enter the city!"


    The army went straight into Nancheng.


    When Gongsun Zan was killed, no one fought to death or resisted. Gongsun Zan''s army successfully took control of Jicheng south city.


    Ganning''s hand, full of 30000 elite, this force, in the case of no resistance, easily take Nancheng as a breakthrough, quickly control the four gates.


    Ganning captured Jicheng, and sent troops to the gate of the imperial city. No one was allowed to enter or leave, so he stayed at the South Gate of Jicheng, waiting for Zhang Xiu to lead the army.

 Chapter 1071

    The army led by Zhang Xiu originally followed Ganning. By the time of Shenshi in the afternoon, the army led by Zhang Xiu had already arrived at Jicheng and joined Ganning''s army.


    Zhang Xiu was also quite moved to learn that Gongsun Zan and nearly 4000 white horses died in the battlefield. Gongsun Zan''s death was quite heroic.


    To die is to die on the battlefield.


    From the beginning to the end, he never lost the spirit of the emperor of Yan.


    Compared with Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan was much stronger.


    Zhang Xiu has never been to care about Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan died, but his descendants are still there. According to today''s practice, Gongsun Zan''s descendants are all in custody, and then sent to Chang''an to be detained. They must be under full surveillance.


    After all this, Zhang Xiu dispatched troops again and arranged Zhang Ya, Gan Ning, and Zhang Yan to sweep the counties in the north of Youzhou. In a short time, she wanted to take Youzhou completely.


    When the army left, Zhang Xiu led the rest of the army and temporarily stayed in Jicheng.


    Zhang Xiu asked Jia Xu to take charge of moving out all the grain in the granary of the state of Yan to stabilize grain prices and prices. She also announced the notice of lifting the ban on Youzhou, allowing merchants to exchange needed goods.


    With this order issued, the whole Jicheng and even the surrounding food prices, as well as prices, began to fall rapidly. Even countless big merchants, as well as previous grain hoarders, were ready to sell grain, but for a while, they could not sell it.


    Everyone can see that the price of grain is falling.


    Who doesn''t want to do it now.


    What if it has to go down?


    For any item, the mentality of most people is that the price of the item falls. They buy it up but not down. When it falls, few people buy it. They are looking forward to a further drop and then buy it.


    After the royal guards inquired about the news of the grain, they reported it layer upon layer and finally reported it to Zhang Xiu.


    Looking at Wang Yue, Zhang Xiu inquired, "are the people selling grain big merchants?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Wang Yue inquired about the situation, and then said, "Your Majesty, after the blockade of Youzhou, these big businessmen took the lead in reducing the supply of grain, which led to the rapid rise of grain prices. After a very frightening price, they began to sell grain. Although they didn''t sell much grain every day, the profit was extremely high. After all, the price of grain rose too much. Now, it''s because your majesty broke Ji city that they see no profit, so they quickly sell it at a lower price. "


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "have you ever found the person behind?"


    Ordinary vendors are supported by people behind them.


    If there is no one, it must be impossible, especially Jicheng is in the state of Yan, and it used to be at the foot of the emperor. If there is no one, it is simply impossible.


    Wang Yue said: "behind these grain merchants are Liu Weitai, Li Yizi and le Hedang, all of whom are Gongsun Zan''s brothers. After Gongsun Zan became emperor, they were all princes of Yan state, but Gongsun Zan did not give them real power, so these people mainly engaged in business, and their respective industries were quite rich. "


    Zhang Xiu has always been extremely resistant to people who are not benevolent and rich.


    You can earn money, but you can earn the hard-earned money of the common people. It''s all plundered by squeezing. That''s not good.


    It doesn''t work here.


    Zhang Xiu was thinking about how to deal with it, but at this time, a servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, a man named Le he Dang came outside the camp and asked to see him."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Now, he did not take charge of Gongsun Zan''s Imperial City, but settled in the barracks, still living in the barracks.


    The servant went to inform him. Soon, Le he entered. He met Zhang Xiu and saluted him respectfully, saying: "I''m a humble servant. I''d like to see your majesty. Long live your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "I''ve just arrived at Jicheng. Why are you here now?"


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he respectfully said, "Your Majesty, I''ve always been a businessman, so I have some industries in my hands. Especially before, I was short of materials and the price of food was rising. It happened that the shops in my hand had accumulated nearly 100000 stones of food. All this food is useless in the hands of humble officials. Now, I''m willing to donate all of them to Daqin and your majesty. Please accept them. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, showing an unexpected look.


    How could le take the initiative to donate food.


    It was a surprise to him.


    Zhang xiuhan said, "I accept your wishes. I thank you for the thousands of people in Youzhou."


    Le he should say, "Your Majesty, I praise you."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time you can break Jicheng and easily destroy the state of Yan. How can you make a contribution. What do you want? As long as I can be satisfied, I can promise you. "


    Happy when still be contented, so Zhang Xiu generous reward.


    Le he said: "humble job is to do what you can, do not seek reward."Zhang xiudao said, "if you have made a contribution, you will be rewarded. If you have made a mistake, you will be punished. This is the rule of Daqin. You are good at business and know how to make money. In that case, I appoint you as the right servant of the Ministry of household, as a subordinate of Liu Ba, to assist Liu BA in handling government affairs. "


    But he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don''t want to be an official. Humble position is a business background, that is to say, I want to do business, so humble position still intends to do business. If you want to ask, you have a request. "


    Zhang Xiu was very surprised.


    What a pleasure it is to be unwilling to be an official.


    That''s interesting.


    Scholars, agriculture, industry and commerce, scholars are always ranked first, especially in a country with official standard. Scholars are superior only by their status. Zhang Xiu let Le when official, but Coke when refused, really beyond Zhang Xiu''s expectation.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, what do you want?"


    Le he bowed and said, "I''m not willing to be an official, but I beg your majesty to write for Leji shop. Only one of your Majesty''s inscriptions is needed, and the rest is unnecessary. "


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    There''s something interesting about being happy.


    This man is very clever.


    As a matter of fact, if you are an official in the Department of household affairs, if you have outstanding ability, it''s just that. You can definitely stand firm and continue to climb.


    But the problem is that from the beginning to the end, he has never been in contact with officialdom. He has always been in business. Moreover, he has no big background, and there is no backing behind him. It is difficult for him to be an official.


    But he is good at business.


    Moreover, once Zhang Xiu inscriptions for Leji shops, Leji shops are unique all over the world. Even in the face of monopoly giants like Daqin paper industry and Daqin coal industry, they may not be afraid.


    After all, the emperor''s inscription, to some extent, is not only a protective umbrella, but also a gold lettered signboard.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and asked, "come on, what inscription do you want?"


    He said: "Your Majesty can write at will."


    After thinking about it in her heart, Zhang Xiu spread out the rice paper and put forward the four big words - honest heirs!


    Four big characters, iron and silver hook.


    The typeface is strong and powerful, and even more powerful.


    After the four characters were written, Zhang Xiu took out the signature and seal, and then handed the rice paper to le Hedang, saying: "since your ambition is to do business, I hope you can do business in good faith."


    "Thank you


    For his Leji shop, it is the same as the gold medal of death. Even Leji shop can expand rapidly.


    Even if we give 100000 stone grain today, it is worth it.


    It''s not good to be an official, but there''s a way to do business.


    He has his own plan.


    LOH ho Dang has left without staying long.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have any idea about Le he Dang. After all, Le he Dang is very sensible. She can understand the principle of taking it as soon as it''s good, and even make great contributions. She wants to be kind to le he Dang.


    But for Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, Zhang Xiu didn''t have so much kindness. Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "you arrange the royal guards. The news comes out in Jicheng. The next government will supply large quantities of grain, open warehouses to release grain and salt, and there will be no shortage. Let the news out."


    "Here it is


    After Wang Yue answered, he turned to arrange.

 Chapter 1072

    When he left the camp happily, he went back to his house and arranged for someone to mount Zhang Xiu''s inscription immediately. Next, it is necessary to pass on the inscription of Zhang Xiu and start the name of Yueji shop, so as to do business all over the country.


    This is the wild hope of Le he Dang.


    When Le Hedang arranged things properly, he immediately arranged for someone to inform Liu Weitai and Li Yizi to come.


    Gongsun Zan is dead. There is no sadness.


    Over the years, Gongsun Zan has supported countless money and food, but he has not received much gratitude. What''s more, he is also for the sake of his family.


    Gongsun Zan died, Guan Jing died, but Gongsun Zan''s family did not die, but Li Yizi and Liu Weitai did not die, and Li Yizi and Liu Weitai also had an industry in Jicheng, with countless grains.


    When he was saved, he hoped that Liu Weitai and Li Yizi would imitate him.


    At this time, if you don''t show loyalty to Zhang Xiu, you will miss the chance later.


    It has to be now.


    It wasn''t long before Liu Weitai and Li Yizi arrived, and their faces were dignified.


    On the one hand, Gongsun Zan died, and they lost their support; on the other hand, the price of grain fell slowly. For the shops of the Li and Liu families, it was the constant consumption of assets, so they were very worried.


    After Liu Weitai and Li Yizi took their seats, Liu Weitai took the lead in saying, "fourth brother, what do you want us to do? Today, food prices and the rest of the food are falling. The speed of the decline is too much. We are all anxious to deal with it. If you call us at this time, you will soon be adding to the chaos. "


    Li Yizi also said: "the second brother''s words are really reasonable. Now, we have to find a way to stabilize food prices. Otherwise, a few days ago, we bought some grain to hoard. It was sold at a high price. It didn''t take long before it collapsed. It''s a big loss for us


    Le he Dang said: "second brother, third brother, the reason why I invite you here is for the fall of food prices. Now the price of grain is falling, which is irresistible. Even, this is your Majesty''s arrangement, so we can only follow the trend. Our families also transferred a lot of money when Yan was blocked this time. "


    Speaking of this, Le he said: "I suggest you open a warehouse to release grain, or give some money or grain to your majesty, so as to make a good impression in front of your majesty, at least not to affect your family."


    "Your Majesty?"


    Liu Wei Tai''s eyes narrowed and said, "which emperor, fourth brother, do you make it clear?"


    "His majesty is the emperor of Qin."


    Le he zhengse said: "big brother has died in battle now. The state of Yan has also been destroyed. Apart from his Majesty the emperor of Qin, who else is his majesty? I gave all the grain of 100000 stone to your majesty. I''m happy. I''m safe. "


    He''s still hiding some stories.


    He didn''t say anything about his early obedience to Zhang Xiu, because he didn''t become an official, he didn''t say anything, and no one knew that he had betrayed Gongsun Zan.


    "Stupid!"


    Liu Weitai snorted and said, "old four, you are timid. Zhang Xiu entered Jicheng and destroyed the state of Yan. So what? Our shop is also following the trend and never foolishly. Even if Zhang Xiu controls Jicheng, she can''t do anything about us. "


    Li Yizi echoed: "yes, why should we hand over the grain. I don''t agree with that. "


    Both Liu Weitai and Li Yizi share the same view. They attach great importance to money and food, so when they hear Le he Dang''s words, they directly refute them.


    Le he said, "it''s no good to fight with your majesty."


    "We didn''t fight."


    Liu Weitai snorted, then said with a straight face: "old four, if you instigate, just instigate. Don''t instigate us. You have your ideas, and we have our opinions. Now let''s make our own plans. "


    "Goodbye!"


    Liu Weitai stood up and left.


    "Goodbye!"


    Li Yizi also spoke, unwilling to hand over food.


    Le he Dang watched Li Yizi and Liu Weitai leave, shaking his head and sighing. I know that now the government wants to stabilize the situation and stabilize the grain price. However, Liu Weitai and Li Yizi still have to fight each other. Is it really that Zhang Xiu''s knife is not sharp? Although he was timid and didn''t give much advice, he could see the situation clearly.


    Liu Wei Tai and Li Yi Zi left Le he Dang''s residence. Liu Wei Tai said, "third brother, go to my brother''s residence. Let''s discuss the current affairs."


    Li Yizi answered immediately.


    They boarded the same carriage and left straight away.


    After returning to Liu''s home, they sat down in their study. Liu Weitai looked at Li Yizi and said, "third brother, we bought a lot of grain before that. Now Zhang Xiu has begun to stabilize the price of grain. If we sell it now, we will lose a lot. Can you tell me how to solve the current problems? "Li Yizi said: "it''s not easy to do. After all, people are watching now. Even if the price is reduced, it can''t be sold. If we can''t sell the grain, it''s not easy to do. "


    Liu Weitai said, "no matter what, we have to find a way."


    Li Yizi flashed a light in his eyes and said, "maybe I have a way."


    Liu Weitai said, "what can I do?"


    Li Yizi said: "second brother is good at divination. Then we will create panic in the city and force Zhang Xiu to submit. It''s not difficult for us to create panic. Detailed plan, we can do this... "


    Immediately, Li explained the whole plan.


    Step by step, his plan, in the final analysis, or the use of ghosts, let Zhang Xiu change her mind.


    After hearing this, Liu Weitai suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "third brother, if you put this plan on elder brother, elder brother will surely believe it. But can it be done with Zhang Xiu? "


    Li Yizi said, "brother, can''t it be done? It''s definitely going to work. No one dares to be careless. What''s more, even if Zhang Xiu didn''t believe it, it would have no influence on us. I remember a few years ago in Guanzhong, Zhang Xiu also personally went on the stage to pray for rain. Zhang Xiu herself is a person who believes in ghosts and gods, so our plan is sure to succeed. "


    Liu Weitai nods. He remembers what happened in Guanzhong that year. It was dry in Guanzhong for several months, but it didn''t rain. Finally, Zhang Xiu prayed for rain himself. After a rain praying, it rained heavily, alleviating the drought in Guanzhong.


    Since then, Guanzhong has been stable.


    Li Yizi said again: "second brother, we are all old people in Yan state. Although Zhang Xiu entered the city without detaining us or dealing with us, it is certain that Zhang Xiu will suppress US secretly if we don''t take action. At the end of the day, we will certainly have no good fruit to eat. No matter what, we must make sure that we have enough money, so that we can have a good life. "


    "It''s all right, put it together!"


    As soon as Liu Weitai heard Li Yizi''s words, he gritted his teeth and agreed.


    Li Yizi said: "I knew that the second brother would agree. This time, we will join hands."


    "If brothers are united, their interests will be cut off."


    Liu Weitai spoke solemnly.


    In their hearts, they both decided to take risks and prepare to fight.

 Chapter 1073

    Jicheng, the wine shop in the west of the city.


    Today''s Jicheng has recovered a little. After all, with the arrival of Zhang Xiu, countless goods and materials have been transported, so prices are also falling rapidly. Although they have not returned to normal levels, they are not too high.


    In the wine shop, a drunk is talking.


    What drunk man said is what happened in Jicheng in recent days. He said that people died every day in Jicheng recently, and they hanged themselves for no reason. No one can find out the reason, only they know that people are still dying. The drunkard only said that it might be the wrong soul who claimed his life. That''s why people are constantly dying.


    Such a strange thing makes people feel numb.


    Everyone is worried about their own death.


    While the drunkard was talking, someone came in again, saying that another person had died in the city. As the news spread, the people in the whole wine shop felt numb and worried about their own life and death.


    What if we find them?


    All of a sudden, news like this spread all over the city, which made people panic.


    After investigating for a while, the royal guards didn''t find any results. They just reported to Wang Yue. Wang Yue once again can Ling royal guards investigation, and came to Zhang Xiu''s camp, reported the people continue to die unjustly.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu felt strange.


    Jicheng has just been stabilized. How can there be any misdemeanor of asking for life.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t believe in such things.


    Zhang Xiu carefully looked at the information, sorted out the ideas, and asked: "what is the connection between the dead people today?"


    "Not for the time being!"


    Wang Yue shook his head and said: "at present, the royal guards are still searching for information. The royal guards are good at searching for information, but they are still weak in investigating and solving cases, so they are slower. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "since it''s said that it''s the soul of injustice, what is it?"


    "No!"


    Wang Yue shook his head again.


    Today''s situation is not clear to Wang Yue for the moment, so he is quite nervous. After all, the royal guards don''t have a statement about it, which makes Wang Yue worried about being dealt with by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "it doesn''t matter if we haven''t found it for the time being. We''ll keep a close eye on the changes in the city. Since it happened in Jicheng, the people in the dark will show their flaws. "


    Wang Yue suddenly said, "Your Majesty, is there really any evil spirit?"


    "What?"


    Zhang Xiu stares at Wang Yue with a cool color in her eyes.


    In a flash, Wang Yue knew that he had said something wrong. He said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I''ve lost my word for a while. I will arrange the royal guards to investigate this matter carefully. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Wang Yue, remember clearly that the theory of gods and ghosts does not exist. You are now staring down to see the movement of every move. The second is to pay attention to the direction of public opinion and see what is the cause of death. Such a thing can''t be nothing. If it''s just killing people, it''s a murderer. But there are not so many murderers in thistle city. So the purpose behind the other side will surely gradually come to the surface. "


    Wang Yue bowed his back and said, "please rest assured, your majesty. I''m sure that the investigation will come to a conclusion."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Wang Yue stepped down.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is not a big deal, because the other side will definitely be exposed. If there is no purpose behind it, it is impossible for the other party to make a move.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Zhang Xiu continued to deal with her government affairs, but after reading the memorial presented for a while, she saw that Wang Yue came back in a hurry. Wang Yue bowed to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, new news is coming back."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Wang yuechen reported: "in reply to your majesty, news suddenly spread out in the city that the reason why these people died was that they were killed by the unjust spirits. All these grievances are due to the excessive fall of grain prices, which leads to the bankruptcy and suicide of countless grain merchants. These people''s suicides, death, long time do not leave. That''s why there is a situation in the city where the innocent souls ask for their lives. Nowadays, the whole city is full of people who practice exorcism. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu immediately sneered.


    Grain merchants ask for their lives?


    Why don''t we say that because of the rising food prices, countless people who can''t survive will have to ask for their lives.


    This is a rotten trick.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "since it''s the grain merchants who ask for their lives, why do they say that the price of grain is falling too hard. To do so is nothing more than to protect food prices. After all, it''s the grain merchants who want to make money. I remember that you found out earlier that behind the main grain merchants in Jicheng are le he Dang, Li Yi Zi and Liu Wei Tai. Besides, there are also some small merchants, right? "


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Le he Dang has already surrendered, and has taken the initiative to hand over 100000 tons of grain. In his case, it''s not, but it''s not out of the question. As for Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, they are the most suspicious. These two people can be the schemers behind the scenes. "Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "mobilize the royal guards, sneak into the Liu and Li families and inquire about the news carefully. There is no impermeable wall in this world. If you look carefully, you can find out the reason "


    " here


    Wang Yue responded again.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and bowed to Zhang Xiu, reporting: "Your Majesty, Liu Weitai has something important to see."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Wang Yue did not stay, turned around and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart sneers. It''s really about Liu Weitai. Liu Weitai is coming. Especially now, it''s a matter involving grain merchants. Liu Weitai has come here on his own initiative. There is no silver here.


    It''s a self accusation.


    Not long after Wang Yue stepped down, Liu Weitai entered. What he is wearing today is not ordinary silk, but Taoist robes, with the air of dust. After seeing Zhang Xiu, Liu Weitai bowed and said, "I''ve seen your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "Liu Weitai, why are you here?"


    Liu Weitai said with a straight face: "tell your majesty that the reason why the grass people come here is to ask for the lives of the wronged souls in the city. I can resolve the matter of long-standing grievances. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how do you resolve it?"


    Liu Weitai said: "first, I will do things openly in the city to solve this time''s grievance. Second, please adjust the price of food. If food prices continue to fall, I''m afraid more businessmen will fail and commit suicide. At that time, the number of wronged souls will increase. At that time, it will continue to happen that the whole Ji City will turn into a ghost. "


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered: "people''s hearts are like ghosts, so if you look at this Jicheng, then maybe the whole Jicheng will turn into ghosts. You say, if I kill you, will this Jicheng be a ghost town? "


    Brush!


    Liu Weitai''s face changed slightly.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu suddenly said such a sentence. Rao is Liu Weitai. He is well-informed, but he is also frightened in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Originally, Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to deal with Liu Weitai directly. She thought that when Wang Yue got the news, she would consider dealing with Liu Weitai and Li Yizi. But now she looks at Liu Weitai pretending to be a ghost, and she is not happy.


    Liu Weitai was aware of Zhang Xiu''s anger, but he pretended to be calm and continued: "Your Majesty, the grass people are here to help you solve your troubles. Why do you want to kill me

 Chapter 1074

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "do I need a reason to kill you?"


    For those who don''t follow the rules, Zhang Xiu doesn''t plan to follow the rules. If he talks about the rules, he will deal with Liu Weitai and Li Yizi in accordance with the rules. However, a wise man can judge that Li Yizi and Liu Weitai are planning behind the scenes.


    Under this premise, if Zhang Xiu doesn''t follow the rules, it''s easy to kill Liu Weitai.


    When Liu Weitai heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his face also changed greatly. He really didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu would say such words, which made him speechless.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to kill him, kill him.


    Zhang Xiu wants to kill him, no one can stop him.


    Liu Weitai changed his mind and said quickly, "Your Majesty, as the king of the Qin Dynasty, governs the Qin Dynasty by rules and laws. I have never broken the law. On the contrary, I have been wholeheartedly considering for your majesty and helping your majesty eliminate the disaster. "


    After a pause, Liu Weitai threatened again: "but now, your majesty wants to kill a man who is dedicated to Daqin. In the long run, even if Daqin is strong, it will inevitably decline. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "you need reasons. I can say that you are bewitching people. Who dares to refuse to kill you? Who dares to say I am tyrannical. "


    Liu Weitai said: "right and wrong are just, free from people''s will. If your majesty kills people, there will be someone to voice grievances for the grass people. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are not benevolent in business. Do you think someone will complain for you? Without Gongsun Zan''s support, you are nothing. "


    "Come on, now."


    "We should make it clear that we have framed the common people and made the dead. If it''s not true, then what''s waiting for you next is not good words, but criminal law. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m willing to talk about rules with people who obey the rules. But with criminals and conspirators, I don''t want to talk about rules. "


    Liu Weitai''s face was quite solemn.


    Horror flashed through his eyes.


    At this moment, Liu Weitai''s heart suddenly flustered up. It''s true that Zhang Xiu is completely unruly. In the case of Zhang Xiu''s unruly behavior, this is a very dangerous thing for Liu Weitai.


    Even if Zhang Xiu didn''t follow the rules, all the retreats of Liu Weitai were blocked.


    What Liu Weitai relies on is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t know the situation, can''t take him, can''t deal with him. But now Zhang Xiu''s practice is to break all the rules and make everything change.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "now, have you considered it?"


    Liu Weitai said: "I think very clearly, your majesty, I have never done anything against the law and discipline from the beginning to the end. On the contrary, as soon as I saw the ghost in the city asking for his life, I came to help your majesty. But unexpectedly, your majesty is determined to deal with me, which is chilling. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    At the command, the soldiers entered.


    Zhang xiupai pointed to Liu Weitai and said, "drag people down, first take charge of the ten army staff. Give me a good fight, and I will deal with whoever dares to relax. "


    "Yes


    The soldiers were ordered to drag Liu Weitai out.


    In Zhang Xiu''s words, he already asked for heavier treatment, so the soldiers knew how to blame Liu Weitai. This is because there is a particular way to do it. It can break the skin, but it can jump around, but it can also hurt the muscles and bones, but the skin is not hurt.


    Liu Weitai got very angry and growled: "Zhang Xiu, you are a man who has no way to cheat. You are so cruel and cruel. The state of Qin will surely be destroyed in your hands. "


    Zhang Xiu listen, but ignore.


    It''s just a magic wand.


    If Liu Weitai doesn''t come, or if Liu Weitai is not behind the grain merchants, Zhang Xiu won''t judge. But the problem is that all the problems are directed at Liu Weitai. Only Liu Weitai and Li Yizi have such motives.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu is very firm in her judgment.


    As Liu Weitai was dragged out, it was not long before Liu Weitai was pressed on the ground, with soldiers standing on one side. The soldier swung the stick, which was thicker than the goose egg, and smashed it down.


    "Bang!"


    There was a dull crash.


    An army stick fell down, and the stick was hard on the butt. In a flash, the meat on the butt seemed to be rolling. Under the pressure of peiran''s strength, the strength hit Liu Weitai''s pelvis.


    Severe pain, from the pelvic bone, is invading Liu Weitai''s nerve, making Liu Weitai can''t hold on for a moment, opening his mouth to scream.


    In Liu Weitai''s mouth, he also called Zhang Xiu a fatuous king and cursed her cruelty.


    Liu Weitai followed Gongsun Zan all these years. Gongsun Zan was always in Youzhou, which can be said to be the local emperor of Youzhou. Liu Weitai has Gongsun Zan''s support. In addition, Gongsun Zan believes in ghosts and gods. Therefore, Liu Weitai wants wind to wind and rain to rain. Even Liu Weitai''s skin is tender and tender. Now he is suddenly blamed by the staff, and his pain is beyond his control.


    Liu Weitai''s scream and scolding Zhang Xiu made the soldiers even more angry.Zhang Xiu is the king of Qin.


    Zhang Xiu is the God of war in the state of Qin.


    No insult!


    So that when the soldiers swung the baton and hit Liu Weitai, their strength was stronger. When a baton fell, they hit Liu Weitai. It was more obvious that Liu Weitai''s body trembled and his mouth screamed.


    "Bang! Bang


    Continuous impact sound, continuous sound.


    At the beginning, Liu Weitai gritted his teeth and swore, then slowly begged for mercy, and then roared: "Your Majesty, your majesty, I have confessed, I confess, I am willing to confess. Don''t fight, don''t fight. "


    He is a good magician, relying on divination to cheat, these years lawless, not punished. But now, suddenly by the stick, at the beginning, also can bite. However, with the continuous falling of the baton, Liu Weitai couldn''t hold on any longer and wanted to confess.


    However, the punishment continues.


    Especially when it came to the eighth stroke, Liu Weitai was not only injured in his pelvis, but also in his buttocks. At this time, Liu Weitai was biting his teeth, clenching his hands into a fist, and his face was full of ferocity and pain.


    It hurts!


    This kind of agony is very painful.


    When the tenth army staff fell, Liu Weitai''s tense nerves relaxed, followed by the spread of pain all over his body. All he felt was unbearable.


    I don''t have any strength.


    Can''t stand up!


    Can''t push!


    Liu Weitai was still lying on the ground like a dead dog. At this time, the two soldiers came to Liu Weitai, reached for a copy, stood up with Liu Weitai, and went to Zhang Xiu''s camp.


    After entering Liu Weitai, he could not stand or kneel down, but could only lie on the ground.


    In the tent, Zhang Xiu had heard Liu Weitai''s words and said, "Liu Weitai, you just said you are willing to confess. Tell me what you''re going to confess. "


    Liu Weitai said hastily, "Your Majesty, I have come to see you for selfish reasons. I really want to stabilize the price of food. But I didn''t plan anything. I just hope that with the help of the gods and monsters, your majesty can help stabilize the food price! "


    Zhang Xiu''s face became gloomy.


    This is not guilty!

 Chapter 1075

    Originally, Zhang Xiu thought that after Liu Weitai was beaten by ten soldiers, he would learn to be obedient and confess his guilt honestly. But now it seems that he has no intention of pleading guilty and refuses to plead guilty.


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said in a deep voice: "since you don''t admit your guilt, you''d better die. Anyway, it''s no use keeping you. What''s more, you are still Gongsun Zan''s second younger brother. If you keep you pretending to be a ghost, it''s easy to have an accident and kill you forever. "


    "Come on, drag it down and kill it!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Brush!


    Liu Weitai''s face turned pale immediately.


    He really didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so tyrannical that he would kill him without providing any evidence. But it happened that Zhang Xiu was in power. She could kill whoever she decided to kill, and there was no way to stop her.


    "Drag it down!"


    Zhang Xiu urged.


    Soldiers no longer delay time, dragging Liu Weitai out.


    Liu Weitai was dragged, but he didn''t open his mouth at the beginning, because he thought that Zhang Xiu might be deliberately intimidating him. So Liu Weitai''s heart is still gambling, gambling Zhang Xiu can''t kill indiscriminately.


    However, when he was dragged to the barracks door, Zhang Xiu still did not speak, Liu Weitai could not help it any longer. If he delayed for another time, he would be dragged out and killed.


    "I did, I confessed."


    Liu Weitai was afraid and did not dare to argue any more. It''s true that Zhang Xiu sits firmly in the army account, regardless of his life or death, but Liu Weitai doesn''t want to die, so naturally he is in a disadvantageous position.


    Zhang Xiu said, "wait a minute!"


    As Zhang Xiu spoke, the soldiers dragged Liu Weitai back to the camp.


    "Say it," said Zhang Xiu


    Liu Weitai lay on the ground, kowtowed his head to the ground, and solemnly said: "to your majesty, I really participated in the planning of the four events in the city. It''s not only my plan, but also Li Yizi''s participation. "


    "We are both involved in this matter. We arrange people to kill people quietly, then spread rumors and create panic. In the end, I will come forward and threaten you with the saying of gods and monsters, so that your majesty can come forward to stabilize the food price and ensure the stability of the food price. "


    "As long as your majesty does things with me, then we will stabilize the price of food and not make it fall any more."


    Liu Weitai confessed directly.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu''s strength, he didn''t even have the courage to resist.


    "It''s so bold!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are full of cold and fierce killing intention.


    For the sake of food prices and money, Liu Weitai and Li Yizi ignored the lives of the people and killed innocent people indiscriminately.


    It''s time to kill.


    "Please spare your life, please spare your life!"


    Liu Weitai was worried and begged for mercy. He didn''t want to die. There are good days. If he is killed now, everything will be done. Even as an ordinary man, with the financial resources of the Liu family, he will not worry about food and clothing all his life.


    Liu Weitai said, "Your Majesty, Liu Weitai is wrong. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "if you are free, I will spare you. In this world, where is there any royal law. How can you convince the people of Youzhou if you kill wantonly? "


    When Liu Weitai heard this, his heart sank.


    It''s over!


    There is no doubt that you will die!


    Liu Weitai suddenly sneered and said: "Zhang Xiu, no matter whether I recruit or not, you want to kill me. Why should I be put on trial? In this way, I will never admit to killing people or making mistakes. I don''t admit it. You''re killing innocent people. I don''t believe it. No one will resist you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are Liu Weitai in Jicheng, but there is no good comment. I will cut you down in front of all the people of Jicheng. You say, is clapping people in the majority, or for your grievance people in the majority. Even, can you think about it, will someone complain for you? "


    Gudong!


    After hearing this, Liu Weitai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his face looked frightened


    public trial!


    We should also kill him in front of all the people.


    This is not a good thing for Liu Weitai.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you, Liu Weitai, have been in Jicheng for so many years. You are not a perfect person or a good person. Compared with Le he Dang''s scrupulousness, Le he Dang''s greed for life and fear of death, you Liu Weitai and Li Yizi are much bolder. You have a lot of problems. "


    When Liu Weitai heard this, he clenched his fist and tried to roar: "Zhang Xiu, you killed me, killed me!"


    Now, he realized that life is not like death.


    Now he is beaten and injured, but he is still controlled by Zhang Xiu. Under such a premise, even if you want to live, it''s impossible to want to die. You can''t survive or die.


    Zhang Xiu said: "to kill you is to kill you. However, I will announce the whole Youzhou people in front of the thousands of people in thistle city. Just imagine, with you as a typical example, will the people of Youzhou resist my solicitation? Will it still contradict the state of Qin? ""You are so cruel


    Liu Weitai gritted his teeth and was furious.


    At this time, he suddenly thought of Le he Dang. Before that, he and Li Yizi had gone to see Le he Dang together and wanted to plan with Le he Dang, but le he Dang was unwilling. Now he and Li Yizi are all over.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "drag people down!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers got the order, they dragged Liu Wei down.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yue!"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue enters from outside the camp and bows to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "immediately mobilize the royal guards to catch Li Yizi. Then, the Li and Liu families were seized. The evidence of Li Yizi and Liu Weitai''s crimes should be collected immediately. No matter what the big or small, they should be collected properly. Three days later, outside the South Gate of Jicheng, I bowed to Li Yizi and Liu Weitai. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he immediately went to arrange it.


    Now it is clear that everything is settled, and Li Yizi and Liu Weitai are reduced to fish on the chopping board.


    After Wang Yue arranged, the royal guards under his command moved quickly. In less than half an hour, Li Yizi was taken, the Li and Liu families were sealed up, and the property, grain and other land leases were counted and sealed up.


    As for the Li and Liu families, those who should be dismissed should be arrested. After Li Yizi was arrested, he was sent to the barracks and detained with Liu Weitai.


    Li Yizi is still a little confused.


    All the plans are going well. How did you get caught suddenly. And from the beginning to the end, even the slightest bit of information did not come out, so that he did not have any defense.


    If he knew the news in advance, Li Yizi would certainly resist.


    Li Yizi used to be the prince of Dayan kingdom. Even if he didn''t have real power, his family still had some troops to protect the security of his residence. When the royal guards were killed, they didn''t even take measures to deal with the problem.


    At the same time, three days later, the news of Li Yizi and Liu Weitai''s public trial in Nanmen spread throughout Jicheng.


    Hearing this, the people clapped their hands to celebrate.


    For the common people, because Li Yizi and Liu Weitai united people, food prices were monopolized, and even Li Yizi and Liu Weitai were extremely overbearing and oppressed countless people.


    Many people have long wished for the downfall of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, but now they are facing a public trial. The people are very happy and support Zhang Xiu, talking about the public trial.

 Chapter 1076

    Three days is fleeting.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it is time for the public trial of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi. Outside the South City, a high platform has already been set up, a special place for execution. However, before dawn, people have gathered here, waiting to bow.


    As time goes by, the sun rises eastward, emitting warm and warm light. Yang Guang shines on people, making them warm all over.


    As time goes on, more and more people gather here.


    But no one came.


    But the number of onlookers is still increasing. It is already a sea of people. Countless people gathered here, talking about Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, and telling about Liu Weitai and Li Yizi bullying Liangshan.


    Towards noon, with a cry from the soldiers in the city to give way, the people''s voice suddenly became loud. Countless people looked at the city gate and saw two prison cars coming.


    In front of a prison car, there is Liu Weitai. In the back of a prison car, there is Li Yizi. Both Liu Weitai and Li Yizi are dispirited.


    In particular, Liu Weitai''s wounds on his buttocks have been much better in the past three days, but the problem is that the threat of death is always hanging over his head, causing the whole person to wilt.


    Whether it is Liu Weitai or Li Yizi, they are all extremely lost and full of regret. If they had listened to le he Dang''s advice, voluntarily attached themselves to Zhang Xiu, and even handed over food, everything would not have been like this.


    At least, Zhang Xiu won''t kill them.


    After all, it''s not a smiley face.


    What''s more, if they give up their money and food, they can at least save their lives. But the two of them, self-sustaining will not show traces, will not show flaws, so bent on their own way.


    Who knows, Zhang Xiu is even more overbearing, regardless of the evidence directly, and then pried open the mouth of Liu Weitai, whether it is Liu Weitai, or Li Yizi.


    When the chariot arrived at the high platform, Liu Weitai limped to the platform, and Li Yizi followed. Two people were caught kneeling on the stage, the people below a boiling up.


    "Kill Liu Weitai!"


    "Kill Li Yizi!"


    In the crowd, someone was shouting.


    "Kill him!"


    "Kill Liu Weitai and Li Yizi!"


    ¡­¡­


    Countless people, constantly shouting, more and more people shouting, the voice of the sky, resounding outside the south of the city. In fact, Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, who acted domineeringly and relied on Gongsun Zan''s support, either devoured land, robbed money and treasures, or committed crimes.


    Now they have been put on trial, and the people are shouting.


    Zhang Xiu has not yet appeared on the stage. After he stepped on the stage, he looked at the exciting scenes around the execution ground and listened to the roar of the sky around the execution ground. A smile rose from the corner of his mouth.


    He didn''t kill the wrong person.


    Liu Weitai and Li Yizi should be killed! If such criminals are not killed, it will make the people who once died in the hands of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi die.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that everyone was quiet.


    Soon, the people were silent.


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. They wait for Zhang Xiu to announce the punishment to Liu Weitai and Li Yizi. They have nothing to say about Zhang Xiu. The execution of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi by Zhang Xiu alone has won the support of countless people.


    This is a matter of great merit.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the people around her and said, "today, in front of thousands of villagers in Jicheng, I''m going to judge Liu Weitai and Li Yizi. I sent people to arrest them because countless people died in Jicheng, and it''s even more rumored that they were the victims of death. "


    "After my investigation, I found that the death of the common people was not caused by the unjust spirits, but by the joint arrangement of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi, who sent people to plot to kill countless common people, and then shirked themselves from the unjust spirits."


    "Then, stir up the people to make trouble."


    "Liu Weitai and Li Yizi intended to make me yield with the help of the theory of gods and monsters, so as to stabilize the grain price and ensure that they can continue to seek benefits through the rising grain price."


    "I will not do such a thing."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the prosperity of Daqin does not depend on squeezing the common people. We in Daqin and the common people are both prosperous and at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time at the same time. If the people lose money, our Daqin will be weakened and our strength will be greatly reduced. On the contrary, if the people are rich, the strength of the Qin Dynasty will be rich. "


    "In addition, Liu Weitai and Li Yizi committed numerous crimes, committed crimes, drove up prices, neglected human lives, and violated the law and discipline. They should be executed. If we don''t put these two people to death, I can''t explain to thousands of people. "


    "Today, we are going to convict them."


    "Today, it is to redress the grievances of thousands of dead people and comfort them."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, cut nail cut Railway: "execution!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, in a flash, the people standing beside Liu Weitai and Li Yizi swung their swords and sprayed a mouthful of liquor on the blade. The blade fell down. With a puff, the heads of Liu Weitai and Li Yizi immediately flew out, fell to the ground with a bang, and rolled several times before they stopped.Two bodies fell to the ground.


    "Well done


    "Well done


    Long live your majesty


    Long live your majesty


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, people shout, the voice is more high, more powerful. More and more people shout that all the thousands of people in Jicheng have admiration and joy in their eyes when they look at Zhang Xiu.


    Liu Weitai, damn it!


    Li Yizi, damn it!


    The two giant rats died, and the whole city was safe.


    It''s easy for the people to stand in the hearts of thousands of people when they look at the place.


    In particular, Li Yizi and Liu Weitai are the targets of Liwei, so everything is simple. After things, Zhang Xiu to the following people to deal with, he did not stay, just left the execution ground, returned to the city.


    The people of Jicheng are still cheering.


    Countless people are still celebrating.


    People in Youzhou know Zhang Xiu, especially the power of Daqin. What''s more, although Gongsun Zan had strength in Youzhou, in fact, he didn''t win the hearts of the people, nor did he get the sincere support of the people. Therefore, the state of Yan founded by Gongsun Zan was destroyed. In fact, there were not many loyal people.


    On the contrary, the people are willing to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Because Daqin is better.


    After Li Yizi, Liu Weitai and other people''s affairs were dealt with, Zhang Xiu quickly dealt with the Jicheng situation and began to sweep Youzhou. Time flies. In August, Youzhou was calmed down, and all the counties of Youzhou were attached.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu called Zhang Jia.


    Today''s Zhang jaw, as the commander of the first army, has long been dignified. Especially after many years of obedience to Zhang Xiu and following her to fight in the north and south, Zhang Yan also made great contributions.


    Compared with Gan Ning and others, Zhang Yan is more outstanding in the ability to govern the local area, because people like Zhang Yan are very similar to the Confucian generals, who can fight immediately and also be able to govern the local area.

 Chapter 1077

    Zhang chin stooped to salute Zhang Xiu. Although Zhang Yan is now a general in the army, Zhang Xiu''s dignity is getting deeper and deeper. Facing Zhang Xiu, he is also extremely reserved.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang''s jaw in front of her, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she was.


    There is no doubt about Zhang''s talent.


    Zhang Xiu said slowly, "it''s been a long time since you''ve been obedient to me."


    Zhang Maxiao said: "I am favored by your majesty. I will submit to your majesty for several years. I am respected by your majesty and command the army. Grace of your majesty. As far as the general is concerned, he can''t repay in this life. "


    At the moment, Zhang jaw was a little frightened.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly said so.


    Let him have no bottom.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you are loyal to me, and it''s enough to serve me! There is no need to mention the idea of repayment. I called you here because I hope you can get rid of your armor. "


    "Ah


    Zhang jaw exclaimed.


    He used to be the chief General in the army, but now he is going to remove his armor. He is a bit lost and even more frightened.


    What does he do with his armor?


    Zhang chin back slightly bow, zhengse way: "Your Majesty let minister remove armour, then remove armour."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said with a smile, "how can you be so overbearing? I''ll let you remove your armor, but if you don''t want to, I won''t force you. I hope that you will step down as the general of the regular army, take charge of Youzhou and serve as the governor of Youzhou. "


    Zhang was even more shocked.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu let him be in charge.


    For the generals, in the troubled times, they can make great achievements and rise rapidly, but in fact, the rise of generals is only based on the troubled times. In the peaceful and prosperous times, generals are greatly affected. It is basically impossible for them to be promoted quickly. They can only get their qualifications step by step.


    On the contrary, civil servants can be promoted quickly if they make achievements.


    Therefore, in the peaceful and prosperous times, civil servants are more powerful. As for Zhang Yan, he transferred from a military general to a civil official system and became a civil official of the pastoral side, which was his promotion ladder.


    This is excellent!


    Zhang chin bowed his body and said, "Your Majesty values it. I''m willing to be in Youzhou."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised: "I believe you."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "now, you will take off the post of general of the regular army and go to the post of governor of Youzhou."


    "Here it is


    Open your jaw again.


    After Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Zhang Yan turned and stepped down. After Zhang Xie stepped down, Zhang Xiu arranged for another person, but called Jia Xu and said, "Wenhe, I''ll let Zhang Yan transfer to the civil service system and go to be the governor of Youzhou. Now Zhang Ya is in charge of Youzhou, but Youzhou is a border area. It is certainly prone to war and needs to be guarded. Who is the most suitable arrangement for this


    Jia Xu said: "in reply to your majesty, the people who are in Youzhou must be absolutely loyal and reliable to your majesty. So I think that the best choice is to arrange general Ganning to be in Youzhou. After all, Gan Ning followed his majesty and made great contributions to his majesty. Whether it''s loyalty or ability, Gan Ning has no shortage. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "it''s feasible! Now Youzhou is pacified, and all the states in the world, except Jiaozhou in the south, are almost completely pacified. It''s feasible to leave Gan Ning''s fierce tiger army in Youzhou. "


    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for people to inform Gan Ning to come and arranged for Gan Ning to lead the fierce tiger army to stay in Youzhou.


    This means that Gan Ning is a general of the frontier fortress.


    However, when Zhang Xiu arranged for Ganning, she also clearly told Ganning not to interfere in local government affairs. Zhang Yan is fully responsible for local government affairs. In case of foreign invasion, Gan Ning led the troops to attack. One of the two sides is in charge of military affairs and the other is in charge of political affairs. They are not subordinate to each other or under their respective jurisdiction.


    As for the remaining conventional forces, they broke up and rushed into the various armies.


    Now that the world is approaching peace, it is impossible for the army to maintain too much. Except for the garrison of important towns in various places and the garrison near Chang''an, it is impossible to keep all the troops except the others.


    Fortunately, Zhang Xiu did not have too many troops.


    After arranging the affairs of Youzhou, Zhang Xiu led her army to return. When Zhang Xiu returns now, she cheers all the way, because the states of Cao Wei, Jin and Yan are all destroyed, and the world is unified.


    Everyone is very happy.


    When the army went down from Youzhou and returned to Chang''an, it was already October.


    It''s cool in October.


    In the early autumn of Chang''an, the leaves are falling, a golden color. Along the way, Zhang Xiu saw that sweet potatoes were cultivated in countless places, although the storage time of sweet potatoes was only half a year. But for the common people, this storage time of less than half a year is enough for the common people to survive for less than half a year. For the rest of the time, there are some other grains.


    So the people are actively farming.


    Now Chang''an is already boiling.No matter in the court, or people everywhere, they all cheered the victory of Daqin.


    The people are proud of the victory of the Qin Dynasty.


    The victory of the great Qin Dynasty benefited the officials.


    After all, the more powerful Daqin was, the more benefits people in the official system would get.


    There is no doubt about that.


    Chang''an, in the imperial city.


    Harem.


    As the mother of a country, Huang Yueying does not care about government affairs and does not participate in the operation of specific government affairs, but she will be informed of many things. After all, Huang Yueying is the mother of the Qin Dynasty.


    At the moment, there is a child standing beside Huang Yueying.


    The child was born dignified and said that he was only eight or nine years old, but in fact, he was very tall, no less than eleven or twelve years old, and he had a calm appearance, just like a little adult.


    This child is no other than Zhang Cheng, the son of Zhang Xiu.


    Now Zhang Cheng is almost nine years old.


    Nine year old, already sensible.


    In particular, Zhang Cheng had been sent to Chang''an Academy in the early years to be taught by Zheng Xuan, Pang Degong, Sima Hui and other great Confucians. He was not a child raised in the deep palace.


    Zheng Xuan, Pang Degong, Huang Chengyan, Sima Hui and others are not exaggerators. On the contrary, they are extremely pragmatic.


    Zhang Cheng followed Zheng Xuan and others, not only to learn knowledge, but also to practice in person. Even though he was the prince of the state of Qin, he did not get any preferential treatment, so he could better understand the hardships and difficulties of the people.


    Just like this, Zhang Chengcai has today''s calmness.


    Zhang Cheng said: "the mother sent someone to inform her son to go back to the palace. I don''t know what''s important?"


    Huang Yueying looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "Chenger, your father is going back to the palace. Xu Shangshu said, "you are the prince. You should lead all the civil and military officials to the gate of the city to welcome your Majesty''s return."


    "Ah, is it really the father who is coming back?"


    When Zhang Cheng heard this, he became excited.


    As for Zhang chenglai, when he was young, he grew up listening to Zhang Xiu''s deeds, knowing all kinds of her deeds and all kinds of her legends.


    One by one, Zhang Cheng is familiar with the heart, he is extremely respected his father.


    So when Zhang Xiu came back, he was very happy.


    Huang Yueying said with a smile: "look at your eagerness, your father has destroyed the state of Yan and led the army to victory. Now, it''s coming. You wait in the palace for a moment, and you will be informed by your servant. "


    "I know."


    Zhang Cheng answered respectfully and was very polite.


    Huang Yueying is proud of Zhang Cheng. After all, she has such a son. As a matter of fact, after all these years, Zhang Xiu, who is a son of Zhang Cheng, is not careful for the time being. After all, Zhang Xiu goes out every year and seldom has time to stay in the palace. It''s understandable that she has few children.


    Huang Yueying thought about it and began to test her son''s lessons. After all, she was born in a famous family and knew about classics. Zhang Cheng can easily answer every question she asks.


    After Huang Yueying asked for a while, there was no problem. On the contrary, Zhang Cheng was still relaxed.


    This is even more praised by Huang Yueying.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A burst of rapid footsteps came, but a servant quickly entered.


    The servant bowed to Huang Yueying and Zhang Chengxing, then said: "Xu Shangshu said that your majesty is about to arrive in Chang''an, please go to the prince."


    "I see."


    Zhang Cheng said: "lead the way!"


    "Here it is


    The waiter turned and went out.


    Zhang Cheng bowed to Huang Yueying and said goodbye. Then he followed him and hurried to the main hall.

 Chapter 1078

    Today''s Xu Shu, who is more than 30 years old, is in his prime. In particular, Xu Shu has been in charge of the political center for nearly ten years, and he has rich experience.


    In particular, Xu Shu himself came out of the place. He knew the bad habits of the place, and it was not easy to understand the local customs. He was very clear about the local ways.


    Therefore, Xu Shu''s administration became more and more stable.


    The center under Xu Shu''s administration was also as stable as Mount Tai, creating a stable rear for Zhang Xiu.


    In particular, today''s Xu Shu has already had a beard. At a glance, he is extremely dignified.


    After all, he is an important official in the court.


    For Zhang Cheng, Xu Shu is also quite praise.


    The prince was taught by Zheng Xuan and other great Confucians, especially the prince was extremely intelligent and mature, which was praised by Xu Shu. The stability of a country depends not only on the wisdom of the monarch, but also on the intelligence of the successors.


    If a country lacks successors, it is also extremely dangerous.


    This is what Xu Shu is pleased with.


    Zhang Cheng came out from the harem. When he saw Xu Shu, he was neither formal nor frivolous. He folded his hands and bowed respectfully, saying, "Xu Shangshu!"


    Xu Shu hastily replied, "I''ll see your Highness the prince!"


    Zhang Cheng said: "I heard that my father has come back. In that case, I don''t need to delay. Let''s go."


    "Prince, please!"


    Xu Shu waved to Zhang Cheng to go ahead.


    Zhang Cheng nodded and strode forward.


    After they walked out of the palace, the rest of the civil servants and military generals also followed, and a group of people came out of the palace. Such a line-up, it is extremely large, so after the palace, there are soldiers along the way to clear the streets, let the people along the way retreat.


    When people came to the east gate of Chang''an, they waited quietly at the east gate.


    Zhang Cheng looked at Xu Shu and said, "Xu Shangshu, it''s very hard for his father to come back from the expedition. You said, "what can I do to make my father happy?"


    Xu Shu said with a smile: "Your Highness is wise and intelligent. That''s what makes your majesty happy. That''s enough! "


    But Zhang Cheng didn''t speak any more.


    He heard a lot about the so-called wisdom in the Academy, but in fact, Zhang Cheng never felt that he was smart, because every time Zheng Xuan taught him that a person''s innate wisdom was not really smart, because he knew it when he was a child, but not when he was a child.


    Only when we concentrate on learning, work hard, and acquire the knowledge acquired, can we really be smart. However, this can not be called smart, it should be more about giving.


    In his heart, Zhang Cheng is pondering.


    Time goes by little.


    Now in October, although the cold wind is blowing and it''s a little chilly, Zhang Cheng is not only studying in the Academy, but also practicing martial arts. His martial arts are quite good, his body is very strong, and he doesn''t feel cold.


    So Zhang Cheng can bear it.


    "Here it is


    Suddenly, someone called out.


    With this cry, everyone''s eyes, together brush brush to the front of the official road to see. But there was nothing on the official road ahead. After a long time, a black line appeared, wriggling rapidly, and then came to the east gate of Chang''an.


    Zhang Cheng stands in the front. When the distance gets closer, he sees the flags fluttering with the wind. On his childish face, he shows a bright smile and looks forward to it.


    Come back!


    His father finally came back!


    Time is not long, Zhang Xiu and his party arrived first, especially Zhang Xiu is walking in the front. Zhang Xiu wears armor and pursues the wind in her crotch, which is magnificent.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived, Zhang Cheng and Xu Shu immediately bowed.


    Zhang Cheng, in particular, after saluting with all the people, stepped forward and saluted in an orderly way: "my son, Zhang Cheng, welcome your father back to the court. My father''s long journey back here is very hard. My son is willing to lead the horse for him in person. "


    With these words, he walked over.


    Zhang Xiu sees Zhang Cheng''s action in her eyes, but she doesn''t stop it. He looked at Zhang Cheng, who was generous and fearless in the face of the wind, and his eyes also showed approval.


    His son is really good.


    Zheng Xuan and others taught very well.


    Good manners!


    Have courage!


    More calm!


    In Zhang Xiu''s opinion, although Zhang Cheng is only eight or nine years old, in fact, he is no less than a thirteen or fourteen year old child. He is already a little adult.


    When Zhang Cheng arrived at Zhuifeng''s side, he was not afraid. He patted the horse on the back, took the reins and went to the city.


    With the entry of Zhang Xiu, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and other civil and military generals, Qi Qi followed in the city. The generals, such as Zhang Yan and Zhao Yun, led the army into the city and wanted to stay in the barracks in the city.


    They went straight into the palace.


    Back in the hall, Zhang Xiu did not rest, but directly summoned the civil and military officials under his command, and let Zhang Cheng listen below. Zhang Xiu inquired about the situation in China and also about the war in the state of Yan.After reporting all the affairs, Xu Shu finally said: "Your Majesty, FA is serving as the prefect of Bajun in Yizhou. His term of office has already expired. However, at Fazheng''s request, he took the initiative to stay in Bajun for another two years. It was this year that he left his post as the prefect of Bajun. Now he has just returned to Chang''an. May your majesty decide how to arrange Fazheng''s position? "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart and said, "is there a candidate for Tingwei now?"


    Xu Shu said: "report to your majesty, not yet!"


    After a pause, Xu Shu said: "under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, the main accusations were divided into six departments. Tingwei was the organization in charge of the punishment and prison in the Qin and Han Dynasties. Because there was the punishment department, the main responsibility was in the punishment department. Does your majesty want to re-establish the ting Wei? "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "no need!"


    Xu Shu said, "how to arrange the official position of Fazheng?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "reorganize a department called Dali temple! Fazheng, Minister of Dali temple, is in charge of Dali temple. His accusation is that he is in charge of the trial of criminal and prison cases all over the world. "


    Xu Shu thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, now there are Tian Feng''s supervisory court and Fazheng''s Dali temple. Besides, there is the Ministry of punishment. How can we distinguish the rights of these three institutions? After all, there''s a lot of repetition. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "its responsibilities will be refined again. Dali temple is mainly responsible for hearing, and the Academy of inspectors is mainly responsible for supervision, impeachment and suggestions, as well as assessment. As for the Ministry of punishment, it is responsible for execution. We should divide all the functions and powers, not leave them alone in a certain department, and not centralize power. "


    "Here it is


    After hearing this, Xu Shu bowed down.


    Xu Shu admired the arrangement of Zhang Xiu, because it not only arranged the official position of Fazheng, but also divided a department again, which could make the three departments have their own corresponding and constraints.


    After dealing with the affairs of Fazheng, Zhang Xiu said again: "now the war has subsided in Daqin. The next priority is to resume production in various places on the one hand, and to continue to encircle and suppress bandits in various places to stabilize the situation on the other. But the army in the army also needs to make an adjustment. Before that, in order to sweep the four sides, there were many troops, but there was no detailed division. But now, an adjustment is needed. Otherwise, it will be difficult to maintain local stability and long-term stability. "


    Xu Shu said, "Your Majesty, please show me."


    For many arrangements of Zhang Xiu, Xu Shu thinks it is exquisite, and many times, Zhang Xiu has already made arrangements, so Xu Shu directly asks Zhang Xiu to make arrangements.

 Chapter 1079

    The rest of the generals, including Jia Xu, Li Ru, Tian Feng, Zhao Yun and Zhang Yan, all looked up at Zhang Xiu and waited for her to speak, because how to arrange it depends on what Zhang Xiu said. Moreover, they had a premonition that since they wanted to adjust the whole army, it would mean great turbulence.


    One heart, is to play up the spirit.


    Zhang Cheng sat at the bottom. He saw all the people silence and all of them looking at their father. He admired them from the bottom of his heart and was happy.


    This is his father.


    Convince everyone.


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "today''s Daqin has Liangzhou and other places to the west, Qingzhou and Xuzhou to the East, Youzhou to the north, Jingzhou to the south, and even Jiaozhou, which will be accepted in the future. Therefore, people are needed to guard all over the world. Therefore, I intend to divide my troops into local units to stabilize the situation. "


    "No, your majesty!"


    At this time, Zhang Song step forward, shouting against.


    Zhang Song raised his head and threw a voice on the ground: "Your Majesty, the reason why the Great Han is so turbulent is that there are state herdsmen in various places, so that the places are big. Although your majesty is wise and powerful, you can arrange for generals to be stationed in various places, which will easily make the local army bigger. "


    After a pause, Zhang Song continued: "once the strength is big, it will be difficult to control. Of course, with your Majesty''s strength and prestige, there is no problem. But the great Qin state, which has been handed down from generation to generation, will always have ups and downs. At that time, what should be done? "


    "Your Majesty, I agree with you!"


    Sima Yi also spoke.


    For Sima Yi, although he was a little disgusted with Zhang song, he also knew that under the current situation, the state of Qin had just stabilized, so it was not suitable for the local government to be a big one.


    Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty issued a decree of benediction, which weakened the vassal kings of various places and finally strengthened the strength of the imperial court. But now, when your majesty arranges his troops to go to different places, it is tantamount to making them grow up in different places. "


    The rest agreed.


    Everyone is afraid of and worried about the fact that the local government is so big that the imperial court is in trouble.


    So they don''t want Zhang Xiu to be so divided.


    This is the least cost-effective.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and found that Li Ru, Jia Xu, Xu Shu and others had never spoken. Obviously, these people certainly have some ideas about the establishment of the army, or at least have countermeasures.


    Otherwise, they will not be silent.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down.


    After a moment, all people no longer speak, a pair of eyes, look to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "your worry, in fact, there is not much need.". Because I want to make arrangements for troops to be stationed in local areas, and I want people to be stationed in various places. There are also corresponding measures. "


    Sima Yi said, "I''d like to hear about it!"


    Zhang Song said: "Your Majesty, there are policies at the top and Countermeasures at the bottom. No matter how good the measures are, I''m afraid that in the end, they will easily lead to trouble or even mistakes. Therefore, I think the best way is not to open this gap. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s better to be spared than to be blocked. What''s more, every place needs the army to be in charge. Otherwise, once there is chaos, it is easy to breed chaos. Only when the army is in charge can we take precautions. "


    "I have four plans for this matter."


    "First, the selection of the chief General of the local army is arranged by the imperial court, and local officials are not allowed to interfere in the jurisdiction. This is to ensure that the local officials can be bound by the imperial court, so that they will not be nominated or recommended by the local government, leading to the loss of control over the local government. "


    "Second, the chief General of the local army shall not interfere in the administration of local government affairs. Similarly, local civil servants are strictly forbidden to interfere in the army, let alone to mobilize the army. "


    "Third, the term of office of a chief General of a local army is at most four years. If he is rotated once every four years, he will be transferred to other areas to serve as a chief general or become an official in the central court."


    "Fourth, all the chief generals of the local army only accept the orders of the imperial court. Without the military amulets and seals of the imperial court, they are never allowed to transfer troops without authorization."


    Zhang Xiu said with a straight face: "in this way, we can control the local army. This is not only the rule, but also the law. As long as it is carried out in accordance with this law, even if the local Lord has a mind, he will not be able to grow up. It''s not so easy to control an army for just a few years. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    When Sima Yi heard this, she looked surprised.


    Amazing!


    The plan put forward by Zhang Xiu is really amazing. Apart from the first, second and fourth points, the third point alone has already put an end to the idea of countless people making trouble. Because if we can''t be in power for a long time, we can''t control or collude with local governments.


    In fact, in the Han Dynasty, the emergence of local power, that is, the emergence of state herdsmen, controlled the local military and political power, and even the appointment and removal of local officials were in the hands of state herdsmen.


    When the time came for the Tang Dynasty to have the power to handle affairs, it was also the time for the Tang Dynasty to have the power to handle affairs in an orderly manner.In the later song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was rare.


    Zhang Xiu knew the reason, so she was able to put an end to it. What''s more, after her death, she knew better that there were political commissars in the Chinese army, which was specialized in political work.


    It is to assist the commander in handling matters, but to some extent, it is also the existence of constraints.


    Jia Xu, Li Ru and others began to praise each other.


    No matter who it is, they all agree with Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "Your Majesty wants to arrange the troops to be stationed in all parts of the world, so as to control the world. Then, how does your majesty plan?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "I''m going to set up seven military regions to defend the whole Qin Dynasty."


    Jia Xu said, "which seven military regions?"


    Although Jia Xu can''t guess all of the so-called seven military regions, he can roughly infer some, such as Gaolan and pound in Liangzhou, Zhang Ren in Yizhou, and Huang Zhong in Qingzhou. These must be the military regions.


    However, the specific arrangements have to be made by Zhang Xiu.


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu is said to have seven military regions, so Jia Xu knows better that Zhang Xiu must have a complete framework, which is why he said so firmly.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first military region is Chang''an military region. Chang''an is the capital of the Qin Dynasty and the foot of the emperor. The safety of Chang''an is the top priority, which can not be ignored. "


    Jia Xu nodded his head and said, "Your Majesty is wise. Under the emperor''s feet, we must have a heavy guard. Otherwise, once there is turbulence, the whole of Daqin will be affected. "


    The rest didn''t cut in.


    It''s not that I don''t want to interrupt, but I can''t, because many people can''t keep up with Zhang Xiu''s rhythm.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m going to set up the Second Military Region in Youzhou to protect the security of Youzhou and Bingzhou and ensure the stability of the frontier fortress. After all, this is a frontier fortress. It is often attacked by the Hu people. It can''t be easily guarded by the army. What do you think of this place? "

 Chapter 1080

    Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty, I agree with the proposal of establishing Youzhou military region. Youzhou is located in the north, and Xianbei, Wuhuan people border, is the most critical part. Moreover, Youzhou has been invaded by Hu people all year round. After the establishment of the military region in Youzhou, it can also ensure the safety of the people in the north of Youzhou. "


    Li Ru said: "I''m seconded!"


    "Your Majesty, I agree with you!"


    Everyone in the court spoke one after another and agreed.


    Because the establishment of a military region, on the one hand, can consolidate local security and ensure local stability. On the other hand, it is to separate all the troops and distribute them all over the country.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the Third Military Region, Yizhou military region, is responsible for guarding Yizhou and ensuring its security. The Fourth Military Region is Qingzhou military region, which is responsible for ensuring the security of Qingzhou, Yizhou and Xuzhou; the fifth is Liangzhou military region, which is responsible for ensuring the stability of the western border; the sixth is Jingzhou military region, which is responsible for remote control of the security of Jingzhou and Yangzhou. "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu stopped for a moment and continued: "as I said earlier, it''s seven military regions. But now the six military regions basically cover all the territory of Daqin. However, in addition, I also set up a Jiaozhou army to take charge of the conquest of Jiaozhou. Now, the crusade against Jiaozhou has to be put on the agenda. The world has been unified, and Jiaozhou can not be independent of the outside world. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    When they heard this, they spoke together.


    As a minister of the Ministry of official affairs, Xu Shu asked as soon as he heard that Zhang Xiu had set up seven military regions: "since your majesty has set up seven military regions, then you must arrange someone to take charge of them. Only in this way can the military regions be put into operation. May I ask your majesty, who is the most suitable person to be appointed to the military region? "


    Everyone, Qi Shushu looks at Zhang Xiu.


    This is the most important thing.


    Although the personnel arrangement is in the charge of the Ministry of official affairs, in fact, it is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    The generals in the army, in particular, have a keen eye.


    Everyone knows that the world is now unified. Even if there is still one Jiaozhou that has not been settled, in fact, a small Jiaozhou is not worth mentioning.


    Today, to be a general in charge of the army and to be a general in charge of the shepherd is to reach the top of the army.


    A further step is to become an official.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I plan to appoint Zhao Yun as the commander of Chang''an military region. What do you think?"


    "There''s no point in waiting!"


    When all the people spoke together, no one stood up against it.


    The reason is very simple. Zhao Yun is not only a general in the army, but also a younger martial brother of Zhang Xiu. When it comes to kinship and estrangement, there are few civil servants and military generals here who can match Zhao Yun.


    What''s more, Zhao Yun is first-class in both strength and military strategy. Under Zhang Xiu''s command, he has made many achievements and served as the commander-in-chief of the military region.


    "Thank you


    Zhao Yun also stepped forward to thank him.


    At this moment, Zhao Yun is also excited, his heart is full of hope. Once upon a time, he came back from filial piety for his elder brother. Originally, he wanted to return to Gongsun Zan again, but he was mercilessly rejected by Gongsun Zan. By chance, I met Yang Xiu, and then I was able to go south to Zhang Xiu''s command.


    Now, he is in charge of the Chang''an military region.


    Zhang Xiu waved Zhao Yun back, then continued: "the commander-in-chief of Liangzhou military region, transferred Yizhou Zhang Ren to his post."


    Xu Shu asked, "Your Majesty, where is Liangzhou Gaolan?"


    Zhang Xiu replied: "Liangzhou Gaolan was transferred to Yizhou military region as commander-in-chief of Yizhou military region. In addition, pound was transferred back to Chang''an and did not have to stay with Gao Lan. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Xu Shu flattered.


    He even praised Zhang Xiu''s strength, because such a small means, they exchanged Zhang Ren and Gao Lan. In this way, their respective strength and contacts are staggered, so it is impossible for them to become big.


    The most important thing is that after Zhang Ren and Gao Lan are transferred, they will both have the means to control the army. In this way, it will disrupt the network layout of Gaolan and zhangren.


    In this way, it is even more impossible to let it go.


    This is a means of checks and balances.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the Youzhou army is going to stay in Ganning for the time being. There is no need to adjust. As for the Qingzhou military region, Huang Zhong is still in charge and will not make any adjustment for the time being. As for the Jingzhou military region, Chen Dao is the commander in chief. "


    When they heard this, the generals in the army were relieved.


    Because the main generals who follow Zhang Xiu are all arranged, and they are all the commanders in charge.


    This is what everyone is willing to do.


    However, there is still one Jiaozhou army left, so those who have not been arranged, such as Zhang Yan, Ma Chao, and Sha Moke, are looking forward to it, because everyone wants to be the commander of the first army, especially the commander of Jiaozhou military region, and go south to attack Jiaozhou. This is also an opportunity to make contributions.


    Everyone looked at Zhang Xiu again, waiting for her to speak.


    "Zhang Chao was chosen as commander of the military area command," he said"Thank you


    Ma Chao answered immediately after listening.


    It is also very early for Ma Chao to submit to Zhang Xiu. After all, as soon as Zhang Xiu entered Guanzhong, Ma Chao and Zhang Xiu had a fight, and they had already surrendered to Zhang Xiu. They also made great achievements in fighting for Zhang Xiu.


    Even Ma Chao never led a single army from the beginning to the end.


    His contributions can not be erased.


    Today, Ma Chao has become the commander-in-chief of the first army and is in charge of the army of Jiaozhou military region. He is very happy. For Zhang Xiu, Ma Chao''s heart is more grateful, made up his mind to serve Zhang Xiu, to sweep Jiaozhou as soon as possible.


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "good work, I look forward to, you can pacify Jiaozhou as soon as possible."


    Ma Chao said: "I will live up to your majesty longen."


    Ma Chao''s heart is happy, but for Zhang Yan, the commander of the black mountain army, and Sha Moke, there is still a trace of bitterness in his heart. After all, his failure to become the commander-in-chief of the military region means that they have checked some of them.


    Of course, none of the commanders of the seven major military regions are weak. They are all outstanding in battle.


    Ability and strength are very strong.


    No matter Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Gao Lan, Zhang Ren, Zhao Yun, Chen Dao, or Ma Chao, their personal strength and strategy are not weak.


    After arranging the structure of the military region, Zhang Xiu continued: "the rest of the Heishan army, shamoko and others all stayed in Chang''an, reorganized and turned into a forbidden army to protect the security of Chang''an."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Yan, aguli, shamoko and others were in a state of great spirit.


    They stayed in Chang''an and reorganized into a forbidden army, which was excellent, even without having to leave long distance.


    This is also an opportunity.


    Because at the foot of the emperor, if he can be watched by the emperor, he will have the opportunity to make contributions.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, she continued: "since the seven major military regions and the forbidden army are reorganized, all the positions of commander in chief of each military region will be promoted, with the title of general Hushi in command of the army. The same is true of the imperial army. "


    "Thank you, Ron!"


    Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and others answered together.


    They once followed Zhang Xiu. In fact, they didn''t care much about the official position. Now, to become a Hussars general is to have endless glory and great joy in my heart.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, he said, "after the army''s adjustment, it''s very important for the officialdom of the state of Qin. Now, I still intend to make some adjustments. "


    The six Shangshu, headed by Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others, as well as Tian Feng and others of the other supervisory yuan, all rallied their spirits.


    The army has been readjusted, and the next step is civil service.


    It''s all adjusting.


    But in their hearts, they still don''t know whether Zhang Xiu''s adjustment is beneficial or not.

 Chapter 1081

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the six departments of the Qin Dynasty are in charge of the government affairs of the Qin Dynasty. Whether it''s decision-making or administration, it''s all in the six ministries, and the responsibilities are too huge. "


    Jia Xu, Li Ru and others raised their eyebrows.


    They all looked surprised.


    Zhang Xiu''s meaning is clearly to readjust the six ministries, or to readjust the functions and powers of the officials of the six ministries. However, no one spoke, because Zhang Xiu was enough to say.


    Zhang xiudao said, "officials of the six ministries are directly responsible to me. In addition to the six ministries, a cabinet shall be set up, which shall take charge of government affairs and make decisions, and finally the six ministries shall execute them. "


    Hoo!!


    When they heard this, they were all short of breath.


    Cabinet!


    It''s the ruling of all government affairs.


    This means that the power center of the state of Qin was concentrated in the cabinet.


    Therefore, it is necessary to enter the cabinet.


    If you do not join the cabinet, you will not be able to access the power center of the state of Qin. So one by one look at Zhang Xiu''s eyes, are becoming hot up, but the specific how to enter the cabinet is one thing, still need to be elaborated by Zhang Xiu, after all, this is the thing that Zhang Xiu decided to enter the cabinet.


    More information, whether Jia Xu or Li Ru or others, is unknown.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "as the ruling department above the six ministries, the cabinet has seven members. The first one is called the first assistant, and the second one is called the second assistant. The rest are all cabinet members to assist the first assistant and the second assistant in handling government affairs."


    In fact, this cabinet has also made corresponding changes and gained legitimacy.


    During the Ming Dynasty, although the cabinet was powerful, in fact, the cabinet was only the emperor''s personal adviser and had no legitimacy. It was not only delayed by the six ministries, but also constrained by the eunuchs in the palace. In many cases, the cabinet was only a vassal of the emperor and could not play a real role. Zhang Xiu made corresponding changes and legalized the cabinet.


    Make it above the six.


    Even, the cabinet members selected by Zhang Xiu could not be imperial CI ministers or people who did not understand the local economy. In fact, many of the cabinet members in the Ming Dynasty were just studying in vain. They studied eight parts of the book with lofty ideals and poor classics. Finally, the title of the golden list entered the eyes of the emperor and climbed up step by step to enter the cabinet.


    But in fact, the lack of local ruling experience and many ruling measures are taken for granted.


    So that, on the contrary, it affected the people.


    Of course, to a certain extent, this kind of cabinet has become the prime minister and can dominate the whole world.


    However, Zhang Xiu has its own limitations.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the Prime Minister of the cabinet shall be appointed by the emperor and shall be rotated every ten years. It is strictly forbidden to serve as the Prime Minister of the cabinet indefinitely."


    When people heard the words, they changed color one after another.


    The commander-in-chief of the major military regions previously designated needs to rotate, and now even the cabinet chief and assistant also need to rotate. Obviously, the purpose of Zhang Xiu''s doing this is to limit the unlimited expansion of officials'' rights.


    But there was no way.


    Because thunder, rain and dew are all grace, which is arranged by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said: "all the six previous ministers were separated from their original positions, and then entered the cabinet as officials. Among the six candidates who joined the cabinet for the first time, Xu Shu was the first, Jia Xu was the second, and the rest were members of the cabinet. As for the six officials who are vacant, you should make a judgment, report to me for approval, and then arrange the six officials. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others should go down together.


    "All back!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Now, whether in the army or in the imperial court, certain adjustments have to be made, which can''t be done overnight. So Zhang Xiu asked Xu Shu to take people to deal with government affairs.


    After everyone left, only Zhang Xiu and Zhang Cheng were left.


    Zhang Xiu looked at sitting at the bottom, face solemn, a thoughtful Zhang Cheng, said: "Chenger, but what questions do you have?"


    Zhang Chengdao said: "my father, whether he set up a military region or a cabinet, set a time limit and had to rotate. Is the intention of the emperor''s father to do so a suspicion of disloyalty? "


    "Wrong, not doubt!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "this is to prevent and protect them. Everyone, in the face of temptation, may not be able to stick to the original intention. And once you make a mistake, it''s irreversible. So when I limit the time limit, I block everyone''s greedy thoughts and all people''s desires. In a way, it''s protecting them. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "what''s more, you have to govern a country. Trust is necessary. Without trust, state affairs cannot be governed. But in addition to trust, you also have to have the means of containment to ensure that you are in control of the situation. "


    Zhang chengruo thought and said, "I understand."


    "Just understand."


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    In fact, at Zhang Cheng''s age, Zhang Xiu doesn''t think Zhang Cheng really understands, because it involves power. However, he didn''t interfere in Zhang Cheng''s thoughts, and he didn''t manage them. In short, let it be.Zhang Xiu continued: "you are still young. You should not express your opinion too early. When things happen, listen, read, think and ask more. Don''t express your opinions at will. "


    Zhang Chengdao: "son understands!"


    After a pause, Zhang Cheng continued: "when my son was in the Academy, he studied with his teachers and other senior brothers, and they all taught me that I had to understand before I had any evidence. Otherwise, it will be on paper, floating on the surface. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you just understand."


    Zhang Xiu talked with Zhang Cheng for nearly half an hour before she let Zhang Cheng leave.


    Zhang Xiu returned to the harem and spent some time with a group of concubines. After all, he spent almost all these years fighting outside the palace and rarely stayed in the palace.


    On this day, in the morning.


    After Zhang Xiu came out of the harem, Xu Shu came to see her.


    Zhang xiudao said, "Yuanzhi, what''s the important thing for you to come to see me?"


    Xu Shu replied: "tell your majesty that the reason why I came to see you is that all the people in the cabinet agreed that although your majesty has a prince and Daqin has a successor, there are too few children. The strength of the Qin Dynasty lies not only in the strength of the army, but also in the reproduction of his Majesty''s descendants. Therefore, I beg your majesty to spread more branches and leaves. "


    After a pause, Xu Shu continued: "I''m here to persuade you. I hope your majesty can choose women to enter the palace to enrich the palace."


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu directly shook her head and refused, saying: "there is no need to enrich the harem. Now there are many women in my harem. None of them has yet been born, and there are so many people, that''s enough


    For the women in the harem, Zhang Xiu didn''t have much wild hope, because although he also liked beautiful women, he didn''t indulge in them. What''s more, color is a bone scraper. You can''t do it without restraint.


    Xu Shu said: "in that case, please your majesty to favor the concubines."


    "I see."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Most of his time now is in the palace, so he has plenty of time and energy to make human beings.


    After Xu Shu said something about the harem, he turned around and left without much delay.


    Zhang Xiu is still in the harem.


    Nowadays, government affairs are almost handled by the cabinet. He only needs to review them. Therefore, with the existence of the cabinet, Zhang Xiu can be much more relaxed. As the founding monarch, Zhang Xiu''s prestige is incomparable, so the cabinet can not suppress the imperial power in any case. But in later generations, when the emperor was weak, the power of the cabinet might suppress the imperial power, but this was beyond Zhang Xiu''s control.


    In a word, it is enough to keep the country''s throne.


    The rest, Zhang Xiu did not consider so much.


    Time flies. In a flash, more than a year has passed in a hurry. Time enters March 207. For more than a year, the territory of Daqin has been flourishing, and all localities have been attached to it. Even Jiaozhou in the South has been submitted to surrender.


    The whole Qin Dynasty is completely unified.

 Chapter 1082

    Spring begins in March, and all over the country are busy.


    As a matter of fact, at the end of last year, all the assassins from all over the world went to Chang''an to report their duties. Nowadays, sweet potato has been thoroughly popularized in the whole world of Daqin. In fact, people all over the world are not short of food, and hunger is rare.


    But for Zhang Xiu, this is far from enough.


    What Zhang Xiu wants is not only to have enough to eat, but also to let the world develop rapidly and get rid of the shackles.


    In addition to the promotion of sweet potato, the imperial examination also spread all over the world. After all, in the early years, the imperial examinations had already been launched in the territory of Daqin. Now Daqin dominates the whole country, and the imperial examinations have been extended to the whole world.


    The emergence of the imperial examination greatly weakened the power of the aristocratic family, and the poor scholars constantly rushed into the official system of the Qin Dynasty.


    In addition, the large-scale promotion of papermaking and printing also increased the number of readers.


    Even the number of readers is still small.


    But there are more and more people reading, and reading is no longer out of reach.


    As a whole, Daqin became stronger and stronger.


    Zhang Xiu is not satisfied with this.


    As a witness of all future generations, seen the high-rise buildings, seen the aircraft and artillery, saw the moon can go up nine days, can go down five oceans to catch turtles, Zhang Xiu is not satisfied with the current situation.


    However, the foundation of today''s Daqin is still not solid enough.


    It will take time to settle.


    Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry to attack the four sides, because to attack the four sides and more places, she needs stronger strength and sufficient strength.


    At present, Daqin does not have such strength.


    On this day, in the imperial city.


    Zhang Xiuzheng''s daily handling of government affairs, in fact, has the existence of the cabinet. Most of the government affairs have been filtered, and the government affairs sent to Zhang Xiu have been screened, so Zhang Xiu is not very busy.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    The knock came from outside the hall.


    But Wang Yue entered.


    Today''s Wang Yue, more and more rickets back, hair white, the whole person has entered the old age. Even if Wang Yue was a general, he was old after all.


    Fortunately, Wang Yue was extremely energetic.


    When Wang Yue saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed to her and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, the empress has sent someone to send a message. Both empress Daqiao and Cao Jie have proved to be pregnant. Congratulations to your majesty. Congratulations to your majesty. "


    "Seriously?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu also showed a smile on her face.


    "It''s true


    Wang Yue replied solemnly.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words in succession. In fact, it has been nearly ten years since she married and had children.


    In the past ten years, although Zhang Xiu often went out on expeditions and expeditions, she did not stay at home. When she returned to Chang''an, she was gentle with her wife and concubine, but Zhang Cheng was the only son under her knees.


    Now, Daqiao and Cao Jie are pregnant again, which makes them even more happy.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for people to send some suitable for pregnant women, and sent more imperial doctors to ensure that Daqiao and Cao Jie were pregnant at any time. When the business in hand is finished, Zhang Xiu goes to the harem to visit Daqiao and Caojie and comfort them to have a good baby.


    In today''s Daqin, only Zhang Cheng has such a son.


    Too few.


    So when Daqiao and Cao Jie got pregnant, the whole harem was busy and became lively.


    In fact, there are not many people in Zhang Xiu''s harem. Moreover, Zhang Xiu tries her best to treat all the women as well as a bowl of water. She doesn''t treat anyone harshly, so she gets along well, and there is no intrigue.


    Zhang Xiu pays attention to the pregnancy of Daqiao and Cao Jie, but she doesn''t neglect the government affairs.


    The world is peaceful and everything is normal.


    After the beginning of spring, when farming is over, Zhang Xiu arranges people to call Jia Xu and Xu Shu.


    Xu Shu is the first assistant!


    Jia Xu is the second assistant!


    Two people are the decisive existence in the civil service system of the Qin Dynasty. Now when they are summoned together, they all know that there must be some big action again.


    After all, this year, Zhang Xiu did not take any action, is in the development of production, restore strength, in such a premise, Zhang Xiu suddenly summoned two people together, the significance is extraordinary.


    After the ceremony, Xu Shu and Jia Xu took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "the reason why we called you together today is to discuss something."


    Xu Shu said, "Your Majesty, please show me."


    Jia Xu is also calm, staring at Zhang Xiu, waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak.


    Zhang Xiu replied, "I''ve been thinking about it for nearly a year. I''m going to carry out land reform."


    "Land reform?"


    When Xu Shu and Jia Xu heard this, their faces were stunned.Neither of them has ever heard of it.


    I never knew what land reform was or how to do it.


    As the first assistant, Xu Shu asked, "I dare ask your majesty, what is the land reform and how to carry it out? Today, our country is peaceful and the people are in peace. The people live a rich life. They don''t have to worry about food. They can eat enough. How can we reform the land? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the so-called land reform is actually very simple. It boils down to one sentence: all the land under the Qin Dynasty is owned by the state, owned by the imperial court, and no longer under private control."


    Boom!!


    As if a clear thunder, immediately sounded in Xu Shu and Jia Xu''s brain. Even though they were sitting in danger, they were still in a state of shock.


    What Zhang Xiu mentioned is too scary.


    Since ancient times, private land is private, and it is also allowed to be bought and sold. But all of a sudden, if we want to take all people''s land back to the state and the imperial court, it will certainly cause a great disturbance.


    It may even lead to unrest.


    You know, even if there are countless poor scholars in the world, they have their own fields, and they are not willing to give up their own fields.


    What''s more, land is the lifeblood of the gentry. If they want to take over the land of all the powerful gentry, they will certainly not agree and will certainly boycott it.


    "Your Majesty, this, this..."


    Xu Shu has always been in front of the collapse of Mount Tai, but now he is stuttering. After taking a deep breath and adjusting his mood, he said, "Your Majesty, once this policy is carried out, I''m afraid it will endanger the nation."


    Jia Xu smoothed his beard and echoed: "in the whole world, there are innumerable nobility, innumerable gentry and innumerable common people. Whether they are nobility in the court or ordinary families, land is their foundation. Once they want to take all the land in their hands and nationalize it, it will inevitably lead to unrest. This matter is immeasurable. "


    After a pause, Jia Xu continued: "Your Majesty''s intention, I can roughly understand, must be to collect the land, and then send it to the people for farming, so that the farmers have their own land. But the problem is that once the soldiers in the army oppose, the whole foundation will be shaken. "


    Xu Shu said again, "Your Majesty, I agree with you."


    Neither Xu Shu nor Jia Xu agreed to take over the land.


    The two of them also have countless fields, but in fact, they don''t care about the so-called fields when they come to this antithesis. The reason why they opposed it was that they really considered the long-term stability of the great Qin and the safety of the great Qin.

 Chapter 1083

    Listening to Xu Shu and Jia Xu''s words, Zhang Xiu didn''t feel surprised, because the land reform was a big move, or even an earth shaking event.


    Throughout the five thousand years, there have been a lot of uprisings, all under the slogan of "land to the tiller", but in fact, they all failed and failed.


    Only later generations of Huaxia achieved success.


    Land reform was carried out thoroughly.


    Zhang Xiu is also clear about the consequences of land reform, but he knows better that if he succeeds, his rule of the Qin Dynasty will be more solid and not easy to be shaken, because the peasants have land, and chaos will not happen for a long time.


    As long as the people can live, there will be no chaos.


    This is the people.


    Only when people really can''t live can they rise up and chaos emerge.


    Even if it''s difficult, it''s worth it.


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "Yuanzhi and Wenhe, I have been thinking about land reform for nearly a year. In this year, I changed the draft several times and took all aspects into consideration. I am also clear about the difficulty of land reform, but it involves things for generations. If I don''t do it, who will do it? Is it hard to save it for future generations? "


    Jia Xu and Xu Shu were dumbfounded when they heard the speech.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you should be aware that in the past dynasties, once it comes to the end, there will be serious land annexation. Coupled with exorbitant taxes and levies, people will not be able to dig food in the ground, they will not be able to eat, and there will be chaos. The root cause is land. So I''m going to have a try. If it is successful, it will be a major event that will be remembered for generations to come. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words are full of determination.


    It''s even more indomitable.


    What he has decided will not be changed.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Jia Xu knew Zhang Xiu''s mind and temperament. Once he had decided something, it was impossible to change it. So he said, "since your majesty has decided to do it, how are you going to push it forward?"


    It''s better to block than to dredge!


    Zhang Xiu decided that Jia Xu could only follow the trend to see if he could make some adjustments.


    Minimize risk.


    This is what Jia Xuli can do.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression is solemn, not anxious, not impatient way: "about the promotion of land reform, I''m going to promote it in four aspects. Moreover, the promotion of land reform has not been achieved overnight, nor has it been accomplished in one battle, but has been carried out slowly. "


    "First, land reform is not unconditional expropriation."


    "Land should be returned to the state, which is our internal view. In fact, it''s collection and exchange. When it comes to the land to be exchanged, the government purchases it at the corresponding market price as official land. "


    "It''s a cheap purchase."


    "It''s not an unconditional levy."


    "If it is expropriation, the people will resist. But if it''s exchange, at least the people will resist and will not be willing to, but at least it won''t cause an uproar. "


    "This is the first explanation to set the tone of land reform," Zhang said


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly: "Your Majesty, what I can be sure of is. As soon as this policy comes out, it is likely that countless people will resist it. In other words, the people will not resist but will not cooperate. Because for the people, land is the lifeblood. Who is willing to sell land? It''s like selling your ancestors. "


    Xu Shu said: "what Mr. Jia said is true. I''m afraid this policy needs to be adjusted."


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "natural need!"


    For the big plan, Zhang Xiu''s heart is already in her mind.


    He has the corresponding measures.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "second, the land collected by the government should not be left idle, but should be cultivated by households. The people can even sublet the land allocated to them, but they are never allowed to buy or sell it. In other words, the land allocated by the government to the people is owned by the people, except that the ownership belongs to the government. "


    "It''s in the best interest."


    "Of course, this still does not solve the problem mentioned earlier. No one is willing to sell the land."


    "It''s no hurry."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and continued: "through this measure, we can certainly win over countless people. For the common people, they have to pay taxes when they rent land or cultivate their own land. But by farming the government''s land, or even subletting it out, there is no need to pay taxes, which can be seen at a glance. "


    "Here, it involves the means for the people to sell their land."


    "On the one hand, the government does not need to pay taxes on the land it cultivates. There are always many people who sell their land in order not to pay taxes. "


    "But it''s for ordinary people."


    "Big families don''t think about this, but they have corresponding means to fight against it."


    "So there''s another way."Zhang Xiu said: "this is the third point. I''m going to build a mausoleum near Shanglin garden in Chang''an. In the past, during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, countless merchants migrated to the mausoleum to build it. Now I am ready to follow suit. "


    "In the name of building a mausoleum, we recruited the nobles and gentry to the mausoleum. In this way, they have to sell their property before they can move their family. Otherwise, the land left behind will be useless. "


    "But there is room for negotiation."


    "As long as they are willing to sell their land, they can be allowed to stay in their original places without having to move to the imperial mausoleum."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is the means for big families."


    "Hiss!"


    When Jia Xu and Xu Shu heard the speech, they took a cool breath.


    It''s a tough way.


    If the first is to stabilize the situation and the second is to win over the common people, the third point is to cut corners and completely cut off the possibility of the great gentry remaining. Because now Daqin is strong, no one can compete with Daqin.


    Jia Xu thought for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, even if it is so, if it is promoted and everyone is connected, I''m afraid it will also cause shock. It''s not that easy to deal with. "


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "so, this involves the fourth point. The land reform is not a one-time promotion, not to be completed overnight, but a step-by-step reform from point to area. First, select a county and reform from the county. Then, step by step, it will be extended to all parts of the country. Only in this way can local stability be ensured. Otherwise, the one-time promotion will definitely cause a great disturbance. I am very clear about that. "


    "Your majesty


    After hearing this, Jia Xu was relieved.


    Since it''s a pilot project, it''s easy to do.


    If we really follow the strategy of one-time promotion, then there will be wars all over the world and everyone will do their own things. I''m afraid that the whole Qin Dynasty will soon fall apart.


    This is what Jia Xu does not want to see.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m going to choose Huai County in Hanoi as the pilot. As the base of Hanoi County, huaixian county is also governed by Hu Zhao, which makes it easier to promote the popular customs. Let''s have a try in huaixian county first, and then consider further promotion. "


    Both Xu Shu and Jia Xu agreed.


    Neither of them disagreed.


    After all, Zhang Xiu''s consideration is quite comprehensive.


    Zhang Xiu said the general direction of the strategy, but in fact, involves the details of the operation, there are many problems. He explained one by one, and after elaborating all the things that should be paid attention to, he finally said: "this matter will not be announced to the world. We will start from huaixian county. Next, I will go to huaixian in person. As for the construction of my mausoleum, you should arrange it. This can be done first. "


    "Here it is


    Jia Xu and Xu Shu bowed to answer.


    They are clear about Zhang Xiu''s determination and believe that Zhang Xiu''s plan is likely to succeed.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has enough prestige to deal with.

 Chapter 1084

    When Zhang Xiu finished her work, she handed over the government affairs to Xu Shu and other cabinet members, and asked the crown prince to supervise the country. Then she took Wang Yue, Deng Zhan, Shi a and other royal guards to Huai county.


    Today''s government does not need to worry about Zhang Xiu.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu has enough time to govern according to his ideas.


    Zhang Xiu went to huaixian County, not to be aboveboard, but to visit in private, hiding the trace. When Zhang Xiu arrived in huaixian county and entered the city, she went straight to the prefecture.


    The royal guards first informed Hu Zhao. When he got the news, he waited early. After welcoming Zhang Xiu into the mansion, Hu Zhao bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty is in Hanoi county. What''s the matter?"


    "I''m going to carry out a land reform policy in huaixian County," Zhang said


    "Land reform?"


    Hu Zhao had some doubts after hearing this.


    He didn''t know why.


    After all, Xu Shu and Jia Xu knew about the land reform, but both of them only knew about it, and no news came out. Therefore, no one in the whole Qin Dynasty knew about the land reform at all.


    Zhang Xiu did not beat around the bush. She took a pamphlet from her sleeve and handed it to Hu Zhao. She said, "it''s a matter of land reform. It''s clearly written on it. Take a closer look first."


    Hu Zhao took over and quickly browsed.


    The lower he went, the more solemn and cautious he was.


    The land reform policy is very bold.


    Even though Hu Zhao was a pioneer of the imperial examination reform and a strong advocate of the implementation of the imperial examination, he was also a little nervous when it comes to land reform. After all, at present, there must be great resistance to land reform.


    Even though there are many strategies and means in the pamphlet, it is still not easy to carry out the land reform successfully


    Hu Zhao took a long breath after watching it.


    I was scared by the content when I saw the whole article before. It''s only now that he''s recovered a little bit.


    Hu Zhao said: "Your Majesty, it is not easy to push forward the land reform. I am honored by your majesty and entrusted with important tasks. But I''m afraid it''s not enough to carry out land reform. "


    Zhang Xiu squinted and said, "Mr. Kong Ming, don''t you want to be the pioneer of land reform?"


    "Your Majesty, please forgive me!"


    Hu Zhao shook his head and said: "although I have carried out the imperial examination, I can''t do anything when it comes to land reform. I can''t take such a serious and huge thing. I beg your Majesty''s permission to resign from Hanoi Prefecture. "


    Zhang Xiu was surprised to hear that.


    Hu Zhao asked to resign.


    This is not willing to go through this muddy water, not willing to carry out land reform.


    Zhang Xiu was not happy. Originally, he thought that Hu Zhao, as a pioneer of the reform, would definitely give his full support to the land reform. However, he didn''t expect that when it came to an end, Hu Zhao was reluctant to undertake the task of land reform. Zhang Xiu is silent for a moment. She looks at Hu Zhao in front of her eyes. There is a look in her eyes and a trace of regret.


    What a pity!


    It''s a pity that he thinks highly of Hu Zhao.


    Of course, merits and demerits are merits and demerits, and Hu Zhao''s merits are indelible and cannot be ignored.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t force it, saying: "since Kong Ming is not willing to take up the post again, and is not willing to shoulder the heavy responsibility, I''m not forced either. I give you the title of Marquis of Wuxiang and allow you to resign. "


    Wu Xiang Hou is a county in Yizhou.


    This is the marquis.


    Although the title is low, in fact, it is not easy to have such a title. Especially after the beginning of the world, when the war ended, the chance of meritorious service decreased, and it was extremely difficult to be a marquis.


    Hu Zhao said, "I''m just making an inch of contribution. I don''t care. Therefore, I dare not accept the title of marquis Wu Xiang. The minister was originally clothed in cloth, so when he resigned, he would live in seclusion in the mountains. "


    The reason why he is not willing, in fact, is that he is not willing to take risks. Because he believes that letting the people hand over their land is tantamount to doing heinous things, and is to be stabbed in the spine.


    Hu Zhao also believes that land is the lifeblood of the people.


    This can''t make people lose their lives.


    Therefore, Hu Zhaocai refused.


    Zhang Xiu knows that everyone has his own ambition. Since Hu Zhao has made a decision, it''s useless for him to persuade him again. So he simply entrusts Hu Zhao with a few words and waves his hand to let Hu Zhao go.


    Looking at Hu Zhao''s back, Zhang Xiu feels even more sorry.


    It''s a pity that we have a talent.


    Hu Zhao is talented.


    But now, because of the land reform, Hu Zhao has retreated. Even though he made great contributions, because of the land reform, Hu Zhao has lost the opportunity to enter the center, or even the cabinet.


    If Hu Zhao completes the land reform, it is not impossible for him to enter the cabinet and dominate the government in the future with his experience in promoting the imperial examination and land reform.


    Unfortunately, Hu Zhao was afraid.


    Hu Zhao is not willing to take risks to promote land reform.Although Hu Zhao''s resignation has left the post of prefect of Hanoi vacant, the temporary vacancy does not have much impact. Zhang Xiu temporarily arranged for the prefect to deal with all the government affairs of Hanoi Prefecture, so as to ensure the stable operation of the government affairs of Hanoi Prefecture.


    After arranging things, Zhang Xiu is a candidate to think deeply about promoting land reform.


    Hu Zhao resigned.


    This is because we are afraid of the consequences of land reform.


    Hu Zhao so, Zhang Xiu believes that there must be more people, also will be afraid, is not willing to bear the heavy responsibility. So the candidates involved, Zhang Xiu must be carefully screened.


    As a matter of fact, there are many officials in Zhang Xiu''s Dynasty, such as Zhang Zhao, Zhang Dan, Gu Yong and so on. There are also many officials who once belonged to Yuan Shao, as well as Zhang Xiu''s own talents.


    It''s not hard to choose people.


    The key is to choose a reliable but courageous person.


    That''s the point.


    After thinking for a long time, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and said, "you should arrange people to return to Chang''an immediately and call Sima Yi to huaixian. For the time being, the things in his hands will be entrusted to him. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to inform immediately.


    Zhang Xiu has a look of expectation in her eyes, because Sima Yi is very enterprising under his command. Because Sima Yi''s obedience to Zhang Xiu was later, Sima Yi did not become a Shangshu as early as Xu Shu and Pang Tong, but there is no doubt about Sima Yi''s contributions.


    After Xu Shu, Pang Tong and others left their posts as ministers and entered the cabinet, Sima Yi entered the six ministries, became one of the six ministries, became the heavenly official of the Ministry, and was the head of the six ministries.


    Now, it is to call Sima Yi from the Ministry of officials, ready to let Sima Yi deal with the affairs of Huai county.


    Zhang Xiu believes that Sima Yi can succeed.


    I also believe that Sima Yi has the courage.


    With the passage of time, less than half a month, into April, the weather is getting warmer, in countless people continue to be busy farming, Sima Yi came to huaixian.


    On the way, he got the news of Hu Zhao''s resignation. Sima Yi didn''t know the reason for Hu Zhao''s resignation. She was even more worried. Why did Hu Zhao suddenly resign?


    Hu Zhao is his teacher.


    Equivalent to his family.


    Sima Yi rushed to the sheriff''s house and saw Zhang Xiu in the backyard. She bowed and said solemnly, "humble Sima Yi, I''d like to see your majesty."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "Zhongda, I''ve been waiting for you for a long time."


    Sima Yi said, "I don''t know if your majesty has summoned me. What''s the important thing to tell you?"

 Chapter 1085

    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She still took out the book of land reform and handed it to Sima Yi. She said, "you should have a look at it first, and then talk about it again. Do you have the courage to accept it?"


    On hearing this, Sima Yi raised her eyebrows.


    He also saw two big words on the cover of the book land reform!


    When Sima Yi opened it, Zhang Xiu said, "your teacher Hu Zhao can''t bear the pressure and weight, so she resigned on her own initiative. Now that you have been transferred from Chang''an, we are dealing with this matter specially. "


    Sima Yi''s heart sank.


    I''m even more nervous.


    He did not expect that his teacher Hu Zhao would voluntarily resign.


    I was scared by the land reform.


    You know, Hu Zhao is also a famous person in the world, and he is a capable official. Under Hu Zhao''s administration, the whole Hanoi county is thriving. I dare not say that Hanoi county ranks first in the world, but at least Hanoi county can rank in the top five counties of Daqin.


    Hanoi County itself, in particular, was the first county to make a success.


    Its foundation is very solid.


    Its economy is very rich.


    Under such a premise, Hu Zhao still resigned, which shows the difficulty of land reform and the impact of land reform. However, Sima Yi was young, but he was also a newborn calf, not afraid of tigers. On the contrary, he was very competitive.


    As Ma Yi''s face turned to the next page, he quickly glanced at it. After reading the whole content of the land reform, he knew the pressure and strength of the land reform.


    No wonder Hu Zhao wants to resign.


    If we can''t do this well, it will be a long-standing scandal, even if we have been stabbed in the spine. But if you do it well, you can gain a lot, even be famous in history.


    This is a double-edged sword.


    Can profit!


    At the same time, it''s easy to fall down!


    Sima Yi thought carefully about the strategy of land reform and how to realize the land reform.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu said, "Zhong Da, this matter may be done well?"


    Sima Yi said: "I dare not say I can do it well, but I dare to do it. Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, even if there is a deep abyss ahead, I will go and never retreat. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "I believe you."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Hanoi county is just a pilot project for land reform. In other words, huaixian is just a pilot. The next step is to advance to the whole Hanoi County, and even the whole territory of Daqin. In the territory of Daqin, all the land should be nationalized, and there will be no more private land. "


    Sima Yi said: "please rest assured, no matter what, I will do my best to do it well. Whether it''s Huai County, Hanoi County, or even the whole great Qin Dynasty, the officials will complete it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not easy. Have you considered it? Once it''s decided, there''s no turning back. "


    "I''ve decided!"


    Sima Yi answered firmly: "I was in charge of the Ministry of officials before, but now I am too busy to be distracted. So I implore your majesty to re elect Xianliang as Minister of the Ministry of officials. Now, I am fully responsible for the land reform. "


    "Sure!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    For Zhang Xiu, he hoped that Sima Yi would spare no effort to do a good job in land reform.


    In Sima Yi''s eyes, there was also a blazing light.


    Today''s cabinet members, when it comes to their meritorious deeds, in fact, some people do not have much meritorious deeds or achievements. The reason why he was able to enter the cabinet was that on the one hand he was solely responsible for some things in Daqin, and on the other hand he was the first to follow Zhang Xiu.


    That''s why I''m in the cabinet.


    It is certainly impossible for these people to become the first cabinet assistant or even the second cabinet assistant.


    Sima Yi''s goal is to be the first assistant to the cabinet.


    But now, Sima Yi lacks enough qualifications and outstanding achievements. Although the land reform is very difficult, because of the difficulties, Sima Yi''s qualifications are unparalleled once he succeeds.


    This is Sima Yi''s wild hope.


    Sima Yi hoped that through this incident, she would thoroughly consolidate her foundation and strive for the position of the cabinet''s chief assistant.


    Of course, it can''t be done overnight.


    It will take enough time.


    But Sima Yi had enough patience. He believed that he would succeed with perseverance. Sima Yi thought about it and said again, "I have three more requests. Please allow me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Sima Yi replied: "first, I am in charge of the land reform. I am sure I will change my strategy. So please don''t doubt what I have done and wait for the result of the land reform."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will not interfere in your work. Until the end, I will not make a statement. Even if you are under pressure, I will resist for you. As long as it is from the top to the bottom, I will resist for you. "


    "Thank youSima Yi bowed to thank him and said again, "Your Majesty, my second request is to ask your majesty to give me the sword of the son of heaven. With the sword of the son of heaven in hand, if you encounter obstacles, I will cut first and then play. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu immediately took out the sword Longquan sword from her waist and handed it to Sima Yi. She solemnly said, "this sword is what I have always carried with me. Today, I will give it to you and allow you to cut it first and then play it later."


    Sima Yi continued: "my third request is the promotion of land reform, which also needs the cooperation of the Ministry of industry. Today''s Ministry of work, because a large number of Mohist children rush in, the development of the Ministry of work is changing with each passing day. There are many new things that need the cooperation of the Ministry of work. Therefore, it is necessary for your majesty to issue an imperial edict so that the Ministry of work can fully cooperate with you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "no problem!"


    After finishing his request, Sima Yi folded her hands and bowed to Zhang Xiu solemnly. Then she said with a straight face, "Your Majesty, I will live up to your high expectations and complete the land reform."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you dare to do it. I''ll take charge of huaixian county and plunder the array for you."


    "Thank you


    Sima Yi bowed her thanks.


    At this time, Sima Yi stopped staying and began to work in the prefecture. After all, Sima Yi wanted to work in Hanoi Prefecture.


    But Sima Yi didn''t act immediately. Instead, she sorted out the matter properly. After meeting the assistant officials of Hanoi Prefecture, she left the prefecture and went to Hu Zhao''s residence.


    Now Hu Zhao is also in huaixian city.


    Sima Yi came to Hu Zhao''s house, handed over the name of the thorn, then went straight inside, in the study to see Hu Zhao with a little white temples. Today''s Hu Zhao, dressed in a green shirt, is elegant and outstanding. When he saw Sima Yi coming, he was surprised. He immediately responded and said, "Zhongda, did you come to Hanoi county to replace me in carrying out the land reform?"


    "Yes


    Sima Yi nodded.


    He didn''t conceal this matter. What''s more, Hu Zhao used to be a senior official of the imperial court and a local official. Such a thing can''t be concealed from Hu Zhao.


    Hu Zhao sighed: "Zhongda, your majesty takes the land reform for granted. Your Majesty''s starting point is excellent. He hopes that all the people in the world can have their own land and can cultivate it. "


    "But in fact, there is too much involved. It is not only the common people, but also the gentry and gentry that your majesty has offended this time. It is extremely inappropriate that a single strategy offends everyone. "


    "Every trick is to win over one side and suppress the other."


    "But there is no difference in this way. All of them have to be suppressed and dealt with. They are likely to collapse halfway. So after I got your Majesty''s orders, I finally resigned and retired. I didn''t take over this matter. "


    Hu Zhao said: "now, you have taken over this matter. I don''t think you need the next one. This is not an opportunity to be famous in history, but a pit of fire. It''s easy to jump in, but hard to jump out. "


    Sima Yi smiles.


    His teacher, Hu Zhao, was right, but some of them were too scared.

 Chapter 1086

    Sima Yi said, "I know the teacher''s worries. But great danger is accompanied by great opportunity. If this is done, then the disciples will make great contributions. It is not impossible for them to be in charge of the cabinet in the future. Now that I am a minister, it is more and more difficult for me to go further. Therefore, it can only be a dangerous move. "


    Hu Zhao said: "but this step, if you don''t pay attention to it, you will be broken to pieces."


    Sima Yi said: "if you do things without taking risks, who is willing to take risks? But I have nothing to say about this risk. I have to go straight ahead. "


    "Well, you''ve decided. I won''t say much."


    Hu Zhao is clear about Sima Yi''s nature. Since it is Sima Yi''s decision, it is impossible for him to make any further changes. He will never go forward and destroy it in the middle.


    Hu Zhao stopped persuading him. As soon as his words changed, he said, "what can I do for you? As long as it is within my power, I will never refuse. "


    Sima Yi said: "the teacher''s heart, Yi''s heart. However, there is no need for teachers. Because now I have the full power of your majesty. Even his Majesty''s sword has been entrusted to me, allowing me to cut first and then play. There is no amnesty for anyone who dares to stop. "


    Hu Zhao''s eyebrows rose, slightly surprised.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu even Tianzi sword has been entrusted to Sima Yi.


    This gives Sima Yi great power.


    It also gives Sima Yi room to operate.


    Hu Zhao stroked his beard with a smile and said, "in this way, I''ll wait and see. I hope you can finish the task smoothly."


    Sima Yi spoke to Hu Zhao for a while, then left. Hu Zhao looked at Sima Yi''s back, but his eyes were thoughtful. From Hu Zhao''s point of view, Sima Yi''s special trip is not only to express the friendship between teachers and students, but also to raise Hu Zhao''s mind, so that Hu Zhao can''t stand in the way of affection.


    The reason why Hu Zhao has such an idea is that Sima Yi takes the initiative to show the emperor''s sword.


    This is Hu Zhao''s judgment.


    Hu Zhao shook his head and chuckled. Even if Sima Yi didn''t say it, he would not take the initiative to get involved. We should know that this time''s land reform was not promoted by the officials of the Qin Dynasty, but by Zhang Xiu himself in huaixian county. Anyone who dares to get involved in it will have to die.


    After returning to the prefecture, Sima Yi did not immediately announce the measures. Instead, she began to read the materials to understand the situation of Huai county. He had to find out all the information of huaixian county so that he could have a definite aim.


    Although Sima Yi could not achieve the effect of never forgetting the documents, he was very familiar with the whole situation of Huai County in a very short period of time.


    It took Sima Yi two days to get to know the situation of Huai County, so he began to take two guards to visit the place to get to know the situation of Huai county.


    Sima Yi has been doing this for a month.


    In a month, Sima Yi went all over huaixian county and knew the whole situation thoroughly.


    How many people are there!


    How many fields are there!


    How many paddy fields are there!


    Or, Sima Yi had a clear understanding of how much good land there were and how much poor land there were, without any omission. At this stage, Sima Yi felt that she had the strength to check the place.


    When Sima Yi really began to deal with government affairs, he issued the first order to summon the heads of the Zhou and Ling families in Huai county.


    The Zhous and lings in huaixian county are two big families in huaixian County, occupying a large area.


    Nearly 60% of the land in Huai county is in the hands of these two families, which shows the strength of the two families. Most of the people live on leased land.


    Even Hu Zhao started his career and managed the local areas. In particular, there were many fortifications and countless people working. He did not rely too much on land, but the problem of land was not solved.


    The patriarch of the Zhou family is Zhou Shen, and the patriarch of the Ling family is Ling Yuan. Both of them are nearly 50 years old. Each dressed in silk and satin, clean and tidy, strode into the sheriff''s hall.


    After standing still, they saluted to Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi looked around and said, "two elders, please sit down and talk."


    "Come on, give me a seat!"


    With Sima Yi''s command, a yamen servant offered his seat. Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan sat on both sides of the hall. However, they looked at Sima Yi with a dignified look on their faces.


    As for Hu Zhaohe, it was obvious that this event happened when he resigned from the court.


    Zhou Shen said, "the governor of Sima summoned us. What''s the matter?"


    Ling Yuandao: "as long as it is something we can do, we should do our best to help adults."


    Sima Yi sat upright and said with a smile, "well, there is one thing that needs the cooperation of the Zhou family and the Ling family. This matter was ordered by the imperial court and has just been sent to my official today. "Zhou Shen said, "please tell me!"


    Ling Yuan also looks at Sima Yi, but his heart is still alert and cautious, because now he and Zhou Shen are not sure what Sima Yi''s intention is.


    It''s because you don''t know anything that you worry.


    Sima Yi didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "the imperial court has chosen the location of the mausoleum for your majesty a few days ago. It''s near Shanglin garden and it''s named Dingling. After your Majesty''s mausoleum is settled, you need someone to go to consolidate it. Therefore, the Zhou family and the Ling family have been chosen to go to Dingling


    Brush!


    Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan''s faces changed greatly.


    There was worry on both faces, and even more fear.


    The whole family moved to the mausoleum of the emperor. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the order of moving to Mausoleum of the mausoleum of the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took place. The whole country''s powerful people moved to Mausoleum of the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wave by wave, thus weakening the local powerful power and achieving the result of average wealth.


    Zhang Xiu''s purpose is not to be rich or to fight against the powerful. His main purpose is to close up the land so that he can control the land and ensure that the people can have land to cultivate.


    As for weakening the powerful, it is only incidental.


    Zhou Shen took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Mr. Sima, although my Zhou family is a famous family in huaixian County, in fact, it is far from the powerful families in the world. Why does my Zhou family have to move? "


    Ling Yuan even said hastily: "governor Sima, the Ling family is law-abiding, and has never committed crimes or bid up prices. Even in all the battles in Hanoi County, the Ling family has made great efforts and money. I sincerely ask the governor of Sima to take the credit of the Ling family and let the Ling family go. "


    Both Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan hope to avoid their own problems. Because once the whole family moves, it is tantamount to abandoning the ancestral property and the foundation of their respective families, which no one wants.


    Sima Yi laughed and said, "this is the policy made by the imperial court. It is impossible to change it."


    Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan''s faces changed again and again.


    In Huai County, the Zhou family and Ling family have some strength and connections, but compared with the government, they are mole ants. If you really want to fight against the government, it will be killing yourself.

 Chapter 1087

    Sima Yi looked at the changes of Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan''s expressions and said, "it''s a national policy to move the powerful to the mausoleum. Such a national policy cannot be changed. Of course, if someone tries to stop them, they will kill the nine ethnic groups directly. "


    Gudong!


    Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan swallow a mouthful of saliva at the same time.


    Both of them were afraid.


    What to do?


    They have no way to resist.


    However, Zhou Shen''s heart was still not reconciled and said: "master Sima, is there really no room for maneuver. Or is there no other way? "


    Ling Yuan also said: "Mr. Sima, we are not unwilling to move to Dingling. It''s because our hometown is hard to leave. So please, Lord Sima, give us a way to live. "


    But Sima Yi was silent.


    Sima Yi''s silence suddenly brightened Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan''s eyes.


    Have a chance!


    If Sima Yi refuses decisively, she will not be silent. It was Sima Yi''s action that gave them an opportunity.


    Zhou Shenlian said hastily, "please be considerate of Mr. Sima. When it''s finished, we''ll give you our thanks. This time, it''s related to the life and death of my Zhou family. Please help me


    Lingyuan said again, "please help me, Mr. Sima."


    Both Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan looked expectant.


    We all hope to stabilize the situation.


    I don''t want the family to collapse.


    When Sima Yi saw this, she chuckled, because all this was what he wanted to see. Therefore, Sima Yi stopped beating around the Bush and said, "if you two are so sincere, then things may not have no room for turning around."


    Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan''s eyes brightened, and both of them raised hope.


    The two of them got excited.


    It''s like chicken blood.


    Zhou Shen couldn''t wait to ask: "dare to ask Mr. Sima, what should we do so that we don''t have to move to Dingling? As long as it''s something that my Zhou family can offer, I will never refuse. My Zhou family is willing to cooperate fully and never frown. "


    When they moved to Dingling, the Zhou family was finished.


    And the Zhou family asked Sima Yi to help, even if it was a big price, but the Zhou family had shops in Huai County, contacts and network, even if it was a price, it could quickly turn around.


    But when they moved to Dingling, they were not familiar with the place of life, and maybe not only the Zhou family. When they moved to Dingling, it would be difficult for the Zhou family to develop, and it would gradually decline.


    Ling Yuan also immediately agreed to open his mouth and expressed his willingness to cooperate fully.


    Sima Yi said with a smile, "when I came to Hanoi county to take charge, I also had some tasks. Now, the government has to carry out a matter of replacement. The government will come forward to buy the land of the people at the market price, and then distribute it to the people for farming. "


    "It''s not easy."


    "But I have to do it."


    "As long as the Zhou family and Ling family are willing to sell the land owned by their respective families and transfer it to the government for operation. So the Zhou and Ling families don''t have to move to Dingling. "


    Sima Yi looked determined and said, "this is my only condition. I don''t earn your money or receive your benefits. As long as you cooperate, you don''t have to move to Dingling, and I can finish the task. "


    When Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan heard this, they laughed awkwardly.


    Selling land!


    It''s like selling your ancestral property!


    Both of them are unwilling to move to Dingling, but it''s more reasonable to sell their ancestral land at the market price, at least they won''t lose money.


    Mr. Zhou Shendao said, "I can sell 3000 mu of land."


    Sima Yi said with a smile: "only 13000 mu? When I first took office, I went all over huaixian county. I spent so much time in huaixian county. I knew all about the Zhou family''s land. Do you want to say it again? "


    Zhou Shen''s face changed greatly.


    When he looked at Sima Yi again, there was a look of horror in his eyes.


    At this moment, there was no fluke in Zhou Shen''s heart. Because now, Sima Yi has clearly found out the details of the Zhou family, which is clearly aimed at the Zhou family, and has made a special trip to deal with the Zhou family.


    In other words, the so-called migration to Dingling is just a cover.


    Just to deal with the Zhou family.


    This is what Zhou Shen thought.


    Although Zhou Shen said he had a clear idea in his heart, he actually had no choice. If the family moved to Dingling, they would also sell the ancestral land of Huai County, otherwise they would be black in the face when they arrived at Dingling.


    Now, to stay in Huai County, you only need to sell the ancestral land, which is good for the Zhou family.


    Zhou Shen had no choice.


    Lingyuan looks bitter.


    He is not an ignorant person. As soon as he hears Sima Yi''s words, he immediately understands the possible plan, but Ling Yuan has no way to solve it.Ling family can only cooperate.


    If you don''t cooperate, you will find yourself dead.


    Sima Yi looked at Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan. He knew that Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan were not ordinary people. They were all the clan leaders in charge of the family. They were also old foxes. They had their own gullies in their hearts.


    So when Sima Yi put out the land replacement, Sima Yi knew that Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan could see through it.


    But it''s a plot.


    It''s a grand scheme.


    Even if Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan see through, they have no choice, unless they are willing to go to Dingling. But even if they are willing to move, the two families will eventually have to sell their land. In any case, Sima Yi''s plan is bound to succeed.


    He killed Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan.


    Sima Yi didn''t rush to speak. He sat quietly on the throne and examined Ling Yuan and Zhou Shen. He didn''t urge or take the initiative to speak. He just waited. As time went by, Zhou Shen took a deep breath after a quarter of an hour.


    Zhou Shen clenched his teeth and said, "Mr. Sima, my Zhou family is willing to hand over all the land and sell it to the government at the market price. However, it must be paid and delivered at the same time. "


    Since he can''t resist, Zhou Shen can only choose to agree.


    Only cooperation.


    Lingyuan is the same, he took a deep breath, then echoed: "my Ling family is the same, willing to hand over all the land. The premise is that it''s also a one-off payment and one-off delivery. "


    "No problem!"


    Sima Yi made a firm answer.


    As a matter of fact, when Sima Yi checked the land, she had already prepared enough money to make sure that she could replace it. After all, today''s Daqin has no financial problems, especially with Daqin bank behind it, which is even more stable.


    Sima Yi said: "since you are willing to cooperate, you should go back first. Then you should take the lease of good land and come to the sheriff''s house to sign a contract to replace the land."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Shen and Ling Yuanqi should go down.


    Two people full of bitterness, but there is no way to stop, can only get up to leave, leave to prepare for the replacement of the field.

 Chapter 1088

    After Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan returned to their respective residences, they quickly gathered up their land deeds and prepared to hand them in. Today, they are all fish on Sima Yi''s chopping board. Their necks are stuck by Sima Yi and they can''t move at all, so they have to obey Sima Yi''s arrangement.


    Less than an hour later, Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan returned to the sheriff''s house again, gave all their land deeds to Sima Yi, and exchanged money according to the market price. After all, there was too much money involved. Sima Yi didn''t directly take out gold and silver money, but exchanged it in the form of gold tickets of Daqin bank.


    Zhou Shen and Lingyuan can go directly to Chang''an to exchange money with gold tickets.


    This is the cheapest.


    When all the land of the Zhou and Ling families was returned, Sima Yi was not in a hurry to make public the land reform plan.


    With a large amount of land in hand, Sima Yi announced the plan of land distribution. After all, the land of the Zhou family and the Ling family accounts for more than half of the land in Huai county. The distribution of these land, involving the population, also accounts for more than half of the whole Huai county.


    When the plan was published, the people were boiling.


    All the people are very happy.


    Everyone was excited.


    Because the government wants to distribute the land, even if they can''t buy and sell the land, they can at least cultivate it, and even if they don''t cultivate it, they can sublet it. For the common people, such land with low taxes and good land composition is a pie from the sky, which they can''t wait for.


    Therefore, most of the people in huaixian county are jubilant and glad to get the land.


    When Sima Yi stabilized the situation, he did not delay any longer and began to carry out the policy of taking all the land in Huai county and even Hanoi County as the imperial court''s property according to the market price.


    The promulgation of this policy was in an uproar.


    Even if there are corresponding supporting means, even if there are corresponding exchange measures, it is still a big wave. The reason is very simple. After all, it involves the land and the lifeblood of the people.


    In fact, it is better for the people to take the land back to the state. But the problem is that the people don''t think so. The land handed down from generation to generation, they think, is the lifeblood.


    So Sima Yi is still under unprecedented pressure.


    It''s not easy!


    Fortunately, with the land previously handed over by Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan, and a batch of land allocated to the people, there is a cushion and cushion, so even if there are voices of opposition, with the strong promotion of Sima Yi, the whole huaixian county took the lead in completing the land exchange.


    By the middle of June, the whole Hanoi county had completed the land reform.


    This process is not easy.


    There are even people hanging themselves for death, people swearing at the gate of the sheriff''s house, and even people don''t believe it. In short, there are many reasons.


    But in the end, Sima Yi overcame it.


    All the land was distributed. The people in Hanoi County distributed the land according to the number of people. The people really got the land, got the money and got the land. They were happy to continue farming.


    At first, it was because of fear.


    Finally, if you get a substantial benefit, you will be completely relieved.


    This is the heart.


    It took Sima Yi several months to decide the land reform, which made the whole person more mature. In the past few months, he has not only visited the whole Hanoi County, but also dealt with many complicated matters.


    Everything is settled, the whole person is a lot easier.


    On this day, Sima Yi came to Zhang Xiu''s residence in a loose bodice. When she saw Zhang Xiu, she solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the land reform in Hanoi county has been completely completed. I will live up to my mission


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    With the land reform in Hanoi County, Zhang Xiu believes that the land reform in the whole Qin Dynasty will be much easier.


    Sima Yi continued: "Your Majesty, in view of my land reform in Hanoi County, I have some experience. In particular, I have some ideas about the land reform in the whole territory of Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Sima Yi said: "the idea of this land reform has three aspects."


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Sima Yi then said: "first, when we want to carry out the national land reform, it is only the previously formulated plan and the benefits previously given, such as land exchange for money, and then distribution, which is not enough to make the people excited. In other words, it is not enough for the people to exchange land. "


    "The success this time depends on his Majesty''s dignity and awe of Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan. If it wasn''t for the cooperation of the Zhou and Ling families this time, it would be very difficult. "


    "Therefore, in the first aspect, sufficient benefits must be given."


    Sima Yi had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "I suggest that taxes be adjusted. First, the taxes of the people who have carried out land reform are reduced again when they cultivate their land, while the taxes of the people who cultivate their own land are not reduced. In this way, the common people will have a trend, and will tend to benefit. "Zhang xiuhan said, "what about the second?"


    Sima Yi said: "second, the land reform should not be carried out in a forced way, but in a gentle way. With the first temptation of interests and the benefits previously given to the people, the people will see the benefits of exchanging land. Only in this way can it be gradually spread all over the world and be accepted by the people. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s a soft way, but it''s also feasible."


    Sima Yi continued: "third, the land reform needs a stable environment. If the assassins of all the military regions and all the states in the world are already suspicious and unwilling to carry out the land reform policy, it will be difficult to carry it out. Just like this time, if Zhou Shen and Ling Yuan were not subdued first, it would be very difficult to advance in Hanoi county. The main thing to do is to completely stabilize people''s minds. "


    "If you don''t have the same people, everything will be done."


    "Because it involves summoning people in charge all over the country, we need to think about the original time. Therefore, Chen believes that this is a slow process. Land reform can''t be accomplished overnight. It has to be carried forward step by step


    Sima Yi said, "this is my suggestion."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu felt thoughtful.


    It is precisely because Sima Yi experienced it from beginning to end that Sima Yi had personal experience.


    The suggestions put forward by Sima Yi are also more targeted.


    This is a reasonable analysis.


    Zhang Xiu said, "I have written down your analysis. However, when it comes to land reform across the country, it''s still up to you. I will summon the local assassins and the commanders of the military regions. But the specific operation and implementation are up to you. "


    "I''ll do it


    Sima Yi bowed her hand to answer.


    He is already in charge of the land reform in Hanoi county. If he is not in charge of the land reform in the whole country, he will be picked peaches. Only when he straightened out the land reform of the whole Qin Dynasty can he become his own qualification.


    This is what Sima Yi must ask for.


    Only when it is completely completed can Sima Yi have enough qualifications to enter the cabinet, or even dominate the cabinet in the future.

 Chapter 1089

    As the most promising person in Sima family, Sima Yi followed Zhang Xiu as soon as he became an official. Today, Sima Yi has also made great achievements. But for Sima Yi, he was not satisfied with these things and wanted to get a bigger future.


    The land reform was an opportunity for Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi also told Zhang Xiu some detailed arrangements, and finally said: "Your Majesty, now the land reform in Hanoi county is almost completed, we can return to Chang''an."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I need to return to Chang''an, but before I return, I have to publicize the land reform of Hanoi County, so that the whole people of Daqin can understand the achievements of the land reform of Hanoi county. So, it''s also a trial. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Sima Yi''s eyes brightened when he heard that. It was a good arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu added: "if we stay for a few more days, we will leave. In terms of Chang''an, we still need to make arrangements. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded again.


    After Sima Yi stepped down, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and ordered Wang Yue to dispatch the royal guards to spread the land reform of Hanoi county to the whole Qin Dynasty.


    Then, he immediately wrote a letter to Chang''an to rearrange his position in Hanoi Prefecture as the prefect of Hanoi Prefecture. As for Hu Zhao who has resigned, since he has resigned, Zhang Xiu will not be used again.


    This is Hu Zhao''s own choice.


    Even if Hu Zhao is talented, he shrinks in the face of the battle and refuses to make a decision in the event of a big event, which makes Zhang Xiu unhappy.


    As time goes by, it turns into late June.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu and Sima Yi handed over their work and left Kaihuai County for Chang''an. Now the affairs of Huai county have been arranged properly, so it is not necessary for Sima Yi to stay in town any more. Instead, the affairs of Hanoi county need to be handed over to the chief of Hanoi County for the time being.


    Along the way, the land reform in Hanoi county has spread.


    All over the world, it caused a great disturbance.


    For people all over the world, there is no fool. As soon as people have a look at the actions of Hanoi Prefecture, they know that the imperial court will spread to the whole world. Even now, the imperial court has not announced land reform, but in fact, many people know that it will happen sooner or later.


    So when Zhang Xiu entered Chang''an, the whole Chang''an was already in a turbulent mood.


    Countless people are talking about the nationalization of land.


    There are countless people who are resisting.


    When Zhang Xiu just returned to the Imperial City, not long after returning, he had no time to deal with the government affairs, but the prince Zhang Cheng came.


    When Zhang Cheng saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and said, "father


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Chengchen reported: "father, my son heard rumors from the market outside that Daqin would take all the land of the people of the whole Qin state back to the imperial court. Dare to ask father Huang, is this really the case? "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu did not hide, said: "the next step, Daqin will gradually, the entire Daqin world of land, all returned to the state, no longer let private people hold land."


    Zhang Cheng''s face was slightly tender and shocked.


    A worried look.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you have to say, but it''s OK to say it?"


    Zhang Cheng replied, "to my father, now many people in and out of the government are saying that it is a policy to bring disaster to the country and the people and the whole Qin Dynasty to take the land back to the imperial court."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was not surprised.


    Land reform is a matter of great importance.


    It''s normal for someone to resist. If no one resists, it''s surprising.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Chenger, what do you think?"


    Zhang Cheng was silent for a while, and said, "father, after careful consideration, I think that the land reform will certainly bring disaster to the Qin Dynasty. This matter is not suitable for carrying out, so my children''s ministers do not agree with the land reform. "


    There was a light in Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Subconsciously, Zhang Xiu''s first reaction is that someone bewitches Zhang Cheng, intending to influence the situation through Zhang Cheng. However, Zhang Xiu did not directly ask, but quietly said: "you say, why don''t you agree?"


    Zhang Cheng said: "father, the reason is very simple. The land reform is bound to cause countless people to lose their land. When these people lose their land, they will be in chaos, and Daqin will be in turmoil. Especially in Daqin, there are countless families. These people regard land as their destiny. If we want to seize their land, I''m afraid there will be countless people who will resist. "


    This reason can barely stand.


    But it''s very superficial.


    It is impossible to persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu gave a cool smile and said, "but this is not the root cause. We can''t stop doing it just because someone makes a mess. What''s more, you say that countless people have lost their land, but they can still farm. "


    Zhang Cheng said, "how can they farm when they lose their land?"


    After all, Zhang Cheng is young.A lot of things can''t be seen through.


    In other words, even in the Academy, Zhang Cheng had never been raised in the deep palace, but for Zhang chenglai, he had no contact with local affairs and did not understand the situation of local people.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Chenger''s view, the father respects you, and the father does not persuade you. To understand the situation after the land reform, it is not only useful in a few words. The most important thing is personal experience, which is the most important thing. As the saying goes, only with understanding can we have the right to speak. Only when we really understand it can we know whether it is beneficial to the people. "


    Zhang Cheng said: "my father is wise!"


    After a pause, Zhang Cheng looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "did your father agree with your son''s minister that the land reform would bring turmoil to the Qin Dynasty? If so, why not stop


    To persuade Zhang Chengxiu is to disagree with him.


    So Zhang Cheng is a little excited.


    Zhang Xiu said: "being a father doesn''t persuade you, it doesn''t mean that your views are correct, it doesn''t mean that you agree with your views, it''s because you haven''t experienced it or contacted it. Therefore, my father arranged to take you to Hanoi to see the progress of land reform. So you can understand. "


    "Thank you, father!"


    Although Zhang Cheng thinks that land reform is inappropriate, he is not stubborn, and what he hears is false, what he sees is true. He went to Hanoi for a look in person, but it was also the most appropriate way.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Immediately, there was an internal servant coming in, and Zhang Xiu directly ordered the internal servant Xuan Shi''a to meet him.


    Time is not long, Shi a enters hall, bow body way: "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Shi ah, take a couple of people and take the prince to Hanoi county. The prince has some doubts about the land reform. You take the crown prince to Hanoi county to have a look, so that the crown prince can understand the land reform issues carefully. But the premise is that you can''t expose your identity, you must ensure the safety of the prince. "


    "I''ll do it


    Shi a listen to, immediately excited.


    It is not only a great responsibility on the shoulders, but also a good chance to get in touch with the prince. You know, after a visit to Hanoi County, you can''t come back in a month or two. This is the time for him to get in touch with the prince.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Zhang Cheng again and said, "cheng''er, when you go to Hanoi county this time, you can''t expose your identity. You should obey Shi A''s arrangement. Do you understand?"


    "I understand!"


    Zhang Cheng nodded, then solemnly said: "father, if my son''s officials come back after leaving Hanoi County, they will see that people''s life is hard. Then, is father willing to change his opinion?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you can convince your father, then he will follow your advice. But the premise is that you have to come up with enough reasons. If you don''t have enough reasons, you can''t have a foothold. "


    "I understand!"


    Zhang Cheng replied solemnly with a happy look on his face.


    "Go down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Shi''a and Zhang Cheng left the palace to go to Hanoi.


    Although there is history on the surface, Zhang Xiu still calls Wang Yue and asks him to arrange a group of royal guards to protect him secretly. After all, Zhang Cheng is the crown prince of a country. Safety is more important than Mount Tai. He should not be careless.


    After dealing with Zhang Cheng''s affairs, Zhang Xiu is on the alert. Zhang has been affected. It is conceivable that Chang''an academy is also affected.


    This needs attention.

 Chapter 1090

    Zhang Xiu did not delay. In a short period of more than one month, she summoned the commanders of the seven major military regions. No matter the liehu army, the Feixiong army, or the commanders of other military regions, all supported Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    The army supports the land reform unconditionally.


    There is no objection.


    In fact, most of the soldiers in the army are ordinary people. Many of them don''t even have land. They all rent the land of the powerful families to cultivate. Now the imperial court wants to nationalize the land, and then distribute it to the people for farming. Moreover, the tax on this farming is lower, so the ordinary soldiers in the army support it even more.


    There is no conflict among the major military regions.


    They all support Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    By the end of August, the weather was getting colder, and Zhang Xiu frequently summoned the important officials of the court and the assassins of the States. No matter the important officials of the imperial court or the assassins of each state, they all supported Zhang Xiu''s land reform decision.


    There is no objection.


    With the arrangement of various things going on, especially after the news of Hanoi county land reform came out, the world became more and more shocked. But more and more people are aware of the benefits of land reform.


    At least ordinary people benefit.


    By the end of August, Zhang Xiu had no longer delayed. She formally issued an imperial edict to appoint Sima Yi to be in charge of the land reform, and the land reform would be carried out in the whole territory of the Qin Dynasty. However, the means of land reform are much softer. After all, with Sima Yi''s experience, it is not a rampage.


    Rao is so, but it is also the tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop.


    Chang''an City, suddenly gathered countless people, there are all over the country in charge of the big family, gathered here. All these people gathered together, and then went to petition outside the imperial city.


    Thousands of people.


    After all, they are the leaders of the big families all over the country.


    These people are here.


    This news soon spread to the ears of the Imperial City Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiu got the report from the royal guards, he was not surprised. Because when she decided to carry out land reform, Zhang Xiu knew that there would be obstacles. Even with Hanoi county''s model, there will still be people who will resist, but the number of ordinary people who will resist is less, but the big family has not changed.


    Zhang Xiu immediately summoned the cabinet officials, as well as the six officials under her command. In addition, Sima Yi, who was specially responsible for the land reform, looked at the crowd and said, "countless people gathered outside the imperial city to ask for the abolition of the land reform. What do you think?"


    Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, the people gathered outside the imperial city are all rich families and families. These people are the ones who control the land. In the face of these people, no matter how reasonable, it is useless. If we want them to be subdued and cooperate, we can achieve our goal only when we are strong and intimidated by the army. "


    "I agree!"


    Xu Shu, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, nodded his approval.


    As the first assistant of the cabinet, he knew the advantages and disadvantages of the land reform and its shortcomings.


    Xu Shu said: "for the aristocratic families, land is their lifeblood and the opportunity for them to master resources. Because there is land, there are countless people attached to them. In the end, there are countless people, because of borrowing food and lending food, so that they invest in rich families, becoming a population that can not be thoroughly investigated. Therefore, the land reform must be carried out resolutely. Even if there is turbulence in Daqin, it is worth it. "


    At this moment, Xu Shu''s face was full of iron and blood.


    As a step-by-step person from the war, even though Xu Shu never appeared on the battlefield or directed the war from the beginning to the end, Xu Shu was in the rear of the town and encountered countless decisions and things, so he had enough courage.


    Jia Yu echoed: "Your Majesty, repression must be suppressed. However, when it comes to the powerful families and the stability of the States, it can not be suppressed directly. Otherwise, there will be great turbulence. Because if these people are forced to rush, they will jump out of the wall. Since they are here, they must be ready. So repression means repression, but it also requires tactics. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "what is Wenhe going to do?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Your Majesty, I suggest that your majesty should come forward to meet all the troublemakers in person. Then, tell them that the imperial court has set up a special organization in charge of land reform. Anyone who has any objection to the land reform can register and state the reason for his location, and the imperial court will consider it. "


    "Sima Yi is responsible for the land reform."


    "Then, Sima Yi is responsible for arranging people to meet the people who come to Chang''an alone. All those who want to state their reasons and object to them are registered and then asked for their reasons one by one. "


    Jia Xu continued: "when the identities of these people are clear, we should arrange the royal guards all over the country to investigate these rich families. Anyone who comes out of a big family can''t feel it. There will always be some problems. As long as we have a clear understanding of these problems, we will let them go. "


    "In our battle field, we pay attention to surprise and surprise."


    "It''s the same today."


    "If we want to suppress it in a positive way, we will certainly set off a bloodbath and cause great turbulence. It is reasonable for these aristocratic families to take the initiative to make disturbances and the imperial court to send troops to suppress them. This is tenable. "Jia Xu said: "but when the imperial court takes the initiative to suppress the killing, the situation is different and easy to be criticized. So I think it''s reasonable to arrange people to investigate the problems of these big families, and then force the other party to submit. If they don''t cooperate, then they will announce the disposition of the crime. If they appear to be causing chaos, they will suppress it directly. "


    Jia Xu said, "this is my suggestion."


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    It''s really Jia Xu. This proposal is to the point, and the initiative is in Zhang Xiu''s hands, not Zhang Xiu''s fault.


    Of course, it can be said that Zhang Xiu is the king''s land in the whole world. She can push forward the land reform by force, but it must be difficult. Nowadays, the aristocratic families from all over the world gather in Chang''an, which gives Zhang Xiu a chance.


    Sima Yi said, "what Lord Jia said is true."


    As soon as he heard that there were many people just now, he was ready to propose a crackdown. But Jia Xu''s plan went around in a circle, even insidious. However, such a plan enabled the imperial court to take the initiative instead of being passive.


    Others, such as Li Ru and Tian Feng, agreed.


    The whole court, now unified, is in favor of land reform.


    When they came to the important ministers in the court, they didn''t care about the amount of land. They had already broken away from the need for land. They all agreed with the land reform one by one, and they knew that once the land reform was completed, it would be beneficial to the Qin Dynasty.


    So, everyone agrees.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "let''s go. Now that we''ve made a plan, we''ll see the petitioner."


    He was the first to go out.


    The rest followed, one by one, all following Zhang Xiu. From the palace hall to the gate of the Imperial City, after a short walk, I came to the gate of the imperial city. Outside the Imperial City, on the broad street, countless people sat cross legged, all sitting outside the city.


    This is a petition.


    This is to force Zhang Xiu into submission.


    I hope Zhang Xiu will change her policy and no longer implement the land reform policy.


    At the moment of Zhang Xiu''s appearance, the whole crowd was boiling up. It was originally a buzzing discussion. At this moment, it suddenly turned into a noisy voice, and countless people were very excited.


    All eyes fall on Zhang Xiu.


    All eyes are blazing, staring at Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1091

    After the appearance of Zhang Xiu, the atmosphere changed dramatically.


    But at this time, there was a thin middle-aged man with short stature running forward in the crowd. He came to the front and was less than ten steps away from Zhang Xiu, shouting: "Your Majesty, please give us a way to live!"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I can''t satisfy you?"


    Brush!


    The middle-aged man who rushed out suddenly lost his voice.


    You can eat enough.


    But the problem is that what people like him pursue is not the problem of satiety, but the problem of making money. If it''s just a matter of food, they don''t have to gather outside the imperial city.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "sit down and listen to me. If you have any questions, it''s not too late."


    The middle-aged man immediately returned to his seat.


    The rest of the people who are eager to try are no longer moving forward. They are all quiet. With the spread of the story, the whole people outside the Imperial City knew that Zhang Xiu wanted to speak. They stared at her and waited for her to speak.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "you are gathering outside the imperial city of Chang''an, even from all over the country. It''s for the land reform. I know that. But I don''t know where you are from. I don''t know what your situation is. I don''t know what your demands are. In a word, I don''t know anything about your situation


    When they heard the words, they did not speak.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s words just now, did not say what the key point, is equal to has not entered the topic.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if I ask about your intention one by one and deal with it one by one, I don''t know that it will take a long time to deal with it. Of course, I know that you are all here for the land reform. "


    "If you have something to say about the land reform, I will allow you to say so. I have people in charge of land reform in Daqin. Next, I will be responsible for receiving you. "


    "You go to register and make it clear who you are, what problems you have, and even what you think. All these problems will be recorded. "


    "Then, someone will send statistics to me in different categories."


    "So that I can make a decision."


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and continued: "next, you should leave separately. Tomorrow morning at the latest, the imperial court will announce the place to receive you. Then, you will go straight ahead."


    "Now, separate."


    "It''s no use for you to gather here."


    "They''re all busy going on their own."


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "when the reception place is announced, you will go to register yourself. If you have any ideas or demands, you should speak out boldly and do not have to worry about them. "


    All the leaders of the famous families gathered here were silent.


    No one refuted.


    It''s not that she doesn''t want to refute, but that she doesn''t dare to refute. After all, Zhang Xiu''s prestige is elevated, and Zhang Xiu has given her choice. Under such a premise, if you stand up and speak again, you will be suspected of making trouble.


    In case of eating embroidery is not angry, can go.


    One after another, the leaders of the big families retreated.


    As everyone retreated, the outside of the imperial city became empty and quiet, and Zhang Xiu turned back. For the time being, he has calmed down the people who are in charge of the clan. The next thing is to leave it to Sima Yi.


    On this day, a carriage came outside the imperial city.


    After entering Chang''an City, the carriage went straight to the direction of the imperial city. When the carriage stopped outside the Imperial City, a solemn looking child came down from the carriage.


    It''s Zhang Cheng.


    He has been in Hanoi for nearly two months.


    Accompanied by Shi a, Zhang Cheng traveled all over Hanoi county and saw Hanoi County after the land reform. Nowadays, the people of Hanoi county are full of vitality, because they don''t worry about land and taxes, they just need to work hard.


    This is what the people like the most.


    To some extent, even though the land was owned by the imperial court, it was actually distributed to the people for farming. As long as the imperial court does not fall, the land is still cultivated by them.


    This is the driving force to stimulate people''s cultivation.


    There used to be many people in Hanoi who owned land, but most of them lived on the land of the rich families. They had to hand over some of them to the rich families. After all, few of them really fell into their own hands.


    But now it''s different. The taxes are lower, and the government will teach them farming strategies and help them. So people''s life is actually better than before.


    Facts speak louder than words.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t argue with Zhang Cheng, but let Zhang Cheng go to Hanoi county. Zhang Cheng experienced it with his own eyes. Seeing the living conditions of the people in Hanoi County, he changed his attitude and recognized the land reform.


    Zhang Cheng takes Shi''a into the city and enters the main hall. Zhang Cheng salutes Zhang Xiu respectfully and says, "my son''s ministers have come to see my father."Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what do you think after walking in Hanoi county?"


    Zhang Cheng zhengse said: "in reply to my father and emperor, my son''s ministers went to Hanoi County in person, and then they knew that the land reform was really beneficial to the people. Only in this way can we cultivate without worries. But he also worries that this will lead to unrest. Because as far as my son''s ministers know, all the famous families and aristocratic families gathered in Chang''an to advise my father and emperor to stop the land reform. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as it is correct, it will be carried out without fear. It is enough for you to understand the quality of this policy. As for the promotion of this matter, it has even been blocked by countless people. What''s the point? We can''t stop because of difficulties. "


    Zhang Cheng said: "my father is wise!"


    He was even more respectful of his father.


    Because Zhang Cheng is clear that the land reform that is being carried out today is indeed a major event that benefits the country and the future. As long as this matter is done, the foundation of Daqin will be thoroughly consolidated.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "your mother hasn''t seen you for months. She misses you very much. Go to the harem and see your mother."


    "Here it is


    After Zhang Chengying left the main hall, he went to the back palace.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Shi a, who was slightly tired, and said, "Shi a, it''s hard for you."


    Report to the Emperor: "ah Chen, it''s hard."


    This time he went to Hanoi county and followed Zhang Cheng all the way. The relationship between the two sides was quite harmonious, and Zhang Cheng had to learn swordsmanship from him. For Shi Alai, this is the biggest harvest. As long as he is praised by Zhang Cheng, his official career will be smoother in the future.


    Zhang Xiu praised Shi A''s words and asked him to step down.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has many things in her hands, especially the land reform, which affects her heart. Therefore, Zhang Xiu did not stay in the palace. After putting on her regular clothes, she went straight to Sima Yi''s office to see how Sima Yi dealt with the land reform.

 Chapter 1092

    Chang''an Academy.


    In the president''s office, Yang Biao and Sima Fang sat opposite each other, drinking tea.


    Today''s tea, mainly tea, there is no so-called tea. Compared with later tea making, the aroma of tea is stronger and the taste is more fragrant, which is the mainstream way of tea drinking.


    After taking a sip of tea, Yang Biao put his cup in front of him and said, "Chien Kung, today countless aristocratic families gather outside the imperial city. Do you know what happened?"


    Jian Gong is the symbol of Sima Fang.


    "I know."


    Sima Fang said: "this time, it has caused great turbulence. All the world''s aristocratic families have the opportunity of Chang''an. Such a great event is rare in ancient times. That is to say, your majesty is now strong, the major military regions are in charge, and the prefectural assassins are loyal, so the world can be stable. In other words, in the late Han Dynasty, the whole world had been separated from each other for a long time, and there were wars all over the world. "


    Yang Biao nodded his head and said, "it''s exactly the Majesty''s prestige that can deter the curfew."


    Sima Fang said: "however, according to the news, your majesty asked everyone to withdraw for the time being. He specially asked Sima Yi to count the opinions of the world''s aristocratic families and then prepare to deal with them. What''s your Majesty''s intention, Mr. Yang?"


    Yang Biao said with a smile, "is Jiangong worried about Zhongda?"


    Sima Fang said helplessly, "what''s the use of Zhongda, who is dedicated to making contributions. I''m worried."


    Sima Fang has so many sons. Sima Lang, the eldest son, is the prefect of the county. Sima Yi, the second son, is the most outstanding. Even in the future, he can enter the cabinet or even dominate it.


    Sima Fang was both proud and worried, because if Sima Yi made any mistakes, it would be a broken situation. After all, the land reform today is a hot potato, and if he doesn''t pay attention to it, he might be burned.


    Yang Biao said: "actually, I don''t worry about Zhongda."


    Sima Fang said, "why?"


    Yang Biao said: "when it comes to land reform, it is impossible for the imperial court to have a unified plan. Especially in the imperial court, Jia Xu, Li Ru, Tian Feng, Ju Shu and others were first-class wise men, and others gave advice. Even if the land reform was a big issue, it was not a big problem. Now that Zhongda has started to make statistics, I think the imperial court has a detailed plan. "


    Sima Fang said with a smile, "I can be a little better with my heart hanging in the air. Recently, I can''t sleep at night. I''ve been worrying about Zhongda all night


    Yang Biao said, "if you are worried, I will not worry about the dezu."


    Dezu is Yang Xiu, the son of Yang Biao.


    Sima Fang rolled his eyes and hummed: "Mr. Yang, what do you worry about dezu. He served as an assassin in Liangzhou, where he was a shepherd. Under his administration, Liangzhou became prosperous and prosperous. Under such a premise, you don''t have to worry about it. "


    Yang Biao said with a smile: "my mother is worried when I travel thousands of miles, and my father is also worried when I travel thousands of miles here. I don''t know if I don''t worry about his going out all the time. Jiangong, I think it''s time for us to take action. "


    When Sima Fang heard this, his face became sober.


    He was clear about what Yang Biao said about his actions. He wanted to help Sima Yi and open his eyes to Sima Yi.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a valet spoke outside the room.


    Yang Biao said, "come in!"


    The door creaked. After the attendant entered, he bowed and said, "Dean, this is a letter from the prince. Please have a look."


    Yang Biao took it over and quickly scanned it.


    With a smile on his face, he waved his hand to ask the servant to step down. Then he looked at Sima Fang and said, "the prince has been away for more than two months. He has gone to Hanoi county. Now, the prince has returned. But today''s Prince, and the prince of the past, has undergone very different changes. In the past, under the influence of some people, the crown prince thought that land reform was an influence on the foundation of the country. Now, the crown prince firmly believes that land reform is really beneficial to the country and the people, and is beneficial to the people. "


    Sima Fang said: "after all, it''s your Majesty''s son. Your majesty changed the prince''s view with a little arrangement."


    Yang Biao said: "I''m afraid that some people in the Academy will be more impatient when the prince comes to a conclusion. They try to influence the prince, but in fact, where is it so easy. Especially now, the prince has changed his attitude. "


    Sima Fang said: "if the prince changes his attitude, we will be much more relaxed. Your majesty entrusts the prince to Chang''an Academy. If our teaching is to make the prince and your majesty go against each other and make the father and son turn against each other, I''m afraid it''s not good. Now that the prince has changed his point of view, we are much more relaxed. "


    Yang Biao once again said: "with the attitude of the prince, we should act."


    "Yes, it''s time to act."


    Sima Fang''s face was full of smile.


    Now that the prince is back, Sima Fang also has a look of expectation on his face.


    "Dong! Dong


    The knock on the door rang out again.


    This time, there was no report from the outside, but a middle-aged man entered directly. His name is Yang Chi, a close follower of Yang Biao. On the one hand, Yang Chi is responsible for protecting Yang Biao''s safety; on the other hand, Yang Chi is responsible for taking care of Yang Biao''s daily life, which is Yang Biao''s most trusted person.This is a man drawn from the Yang family.


    Yang Zhi bowed his body and said, "the Dean, many great scholars and lecturers of the Academy, are gathered together now, asking to see the dean."


    Yang Biao said, "please come here."


    "Here it is


    Yang Zhide order, go to inform immediately.


    Yang Biao looked at Sima Fang and said, "Chien Kung, we haven''t taken action yet. These people can''t wait. Unexpectedly, the land reform also caused waves in our academy. "


    Sima Fang said: "with Yang Gong, they can''t rise to the waves. It''s just a little thing, it''s not worth mentioning. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Biao heard this, he stroked his beard and began to laugh: "Jiangong, now you can flatter me."


    Sima Fang said, "I''m just telling the truth."


    They chatted, and soon saw a group of great scholars enter the room. This group of people, more than 30 years old, are all lecturers of Chang''an academy, teaching to the sergeants of the Academy.


    These are the people who advocate that land reform is out of date and should be abandoned.


    Previously, these lecturers influenced Zhang Cheng and exerted pressure on Yang Biao and others with the help of Zhang Cheng. Because Zhang Cheng was transferred away, all these people stopped temporarily. Because today, countless people gathered outside the Imperial City, so they came again.


    The leader''s name is Cui Fu. He was born in a famous family. He was from a big family in Hejian country and was quite famous.


    After Cui Fu entered, he met Yang Biao and Sima Fang and bowed to them. Cui Fu did not beat around the Bush and said straight to the point: "Dean and vice dean, today there are famous family leaders gathered outside the imperial city. I hope your majesty can abolish the land reform."


    "Now your majesty has begun to count the opinions and prepare to abolish the land reform. We in Chang''an academy have been arguing about this before, but up to now, there is no final conclusion. "


    "In my opinion, now that your majesty has begun to abolish the land reform. Therefore, there should be a conclusion within the Academy. Those who insist on land reform are those who bring disaster to the country and the people, and they are all scheming with ulterior motives. "


    "So I think all these people should be expelled from the Academy."


    Cui Fu said, "please judge."


    When Yang Biao heard Cui Fu''s words, he had a cold look on his face and said in a voice: "speaking of it, I also insist on land reform. You, Cui Fu, want to expel all those who insist on land reform from the Academy. Do you also want to expel me? "


    Sima Fang said, "I''m the same. Cui Fu, are you going to be expelled from the academy by me and President Yang?"


    The attitude of the two people is extremely firm.


    As soon as they opened their mouths, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became dignified, and there was no more softness. A pair of eyes, Qi brush fell on Cui Fu''s body.


    In Cui Fu''s eyes, there was also a flash of Li mang. His original purpose was to deal with Yang Biao and Sima Fang, to overthrow them, and then he took charge of the academy and became the president of the Academy.

 Chapter 1093

    Cui Fu, with a confident smile in his mouth, said: "I quite agree with what the dean said. Our Chang''an academy is the Chang''an Academy of Daqin. We should open our eyes for Daqin and consider ourselves for Daqin. Today, the president and vice president support land reform together. This is tantamount to prying and shaking the foundation of Daqin. "


    "How can such a person be the president of Chang''an academy?"


    "It''s not appropriate."


    "So vice president Sima said that whether we want to expel president Yang with you or not is a matter of consideration. If President Yang and vice president Sima devote themselves to the interests of the Qin Dynasty and do not consider land reform, then no one can shake their positions. "


    Cui Fu said: "if President Yang and vice president Sima are determined to support the land reform and shake the national foundation of the Qin Dynasty, there will be no room for them in Chang''an Academy."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Yang Biao heard this, he began to laugh.


    His laughter was full of aloofness.


    Yang Biao was once an old minister of the Han Dynasty, and he can be regarded as the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. When he was in the imperial court, even Cao Cao was afraid of him, so he was dismissed from office and jailed many times. But in the end, Yang Biao was safe, and he was still a loyal leader of the Han Dynasty.


    Now, a Cui Fu dare to say that he wants to deal with Yang Biao.


    Time has changed.


    Yang Biao and Shi ran stood up from the table. Although he was over 60 years old, he was hale and hearty. He was very healthy and had no symptoms. Although his back is slightly bent, he is tall and tall, so even if his back is slightly bent, standing straight, he is still higher than Cui Fu.


    Yang Biao walked straight to Cui Fu with a sneer and a slap.


    "Pa!"


    A loud slap came out.


    Cui Fu is also more than 40 years old, but Yang Biao suddenly slapped him, and he fell to the ground. Cui Fu''s face was in hot pain.


    Cui Fu stares big eyes, a pair of unbelievable appearance, way: "Dean Yang, you hit me openly, what do you want to do? The Chang''an academy has never said that there are people who beat lecturers like this. "


    Yang Biao snorted: "do I need a reason to beat you?"


    Cui Fu stood up and said, "you don''t deserve to be the dean of Chang''an Academy. You are the leader of Qingliu."


    Yang Biao said: "whether I am worthy of being the dean of Chang''an academy or not, it''s not Cui Fu who can evaluate it. Whether I am a leader of Qingliu or not is not decided by me. It is recognized by others, not by Cui Fu. So what you said is really full of absurdity, without any foothold at all. "


    "As for you, Trevor, what is it?"


    "Don''t you dare to talk to me."


    "Where were you when I was running across the court? I''m afraid you were still an ignorant young man. Where were you when I was planning to build Chang''an academy? When I hired you as a lecturer of Chang''an academy, what kind of situation did you have


    "Don''t you forget your predicament. At that time, when you were hired, there were many great scholars in the Academy who thought that your private morality was at stake. I think you have some talent, so I insist on hiring you. "


    Yang Biao''s tone was severe, and he said: "now you are self righteous, and you are going to make waves in the Academy. You have just said the right thing. This Chang''an academy is indeed the Chang''an Academy of Daqin, not someone''s. And you, Cui Fu, are not even a fart in Chang''an Academy in Daqin. "


    At this moment, Yang Biao is extremely domineering.


    Speaking is the loss of the West''s elegant, words, showing disdain for Cui Fu.


    Cui Fu clenched his teeth and said, "Yang Biao, you depend on the old to sell the old. After all, it''s a bad end. Even if you advocate land reform, the crown prince is in the Academy. Even the crown prince doesn''t approve of land reform. You can''t stop it. As far as we know, the prince has returned to Chang''an. When the prince returns to the Academy, you will be dismissed. "


    Yang Biao said with a smile: "unfortunately, the prince is only the Prince now, and he has never supervised the country''s government affairs. What''s more, I Yang Biao is a scholar, not an official. What''s the fear of the prince? I am selfless and broad-minded in my heart, and I am not afraid of any slander, not to mention any overt or covert attack. "


    "Somebody


    Speaking of this, Yang Biao called out.


    In an instant, an attendant came in and bowed to Yang Biao.


    Yang Biao brushed his sleeves and said, "Cui Fu interferes in the government without authorization. He even intends to make trouble in the Academy. He also takes into account Cui Fu''s acceptance of gifts from scholars. He is not qualified to be a lecturer in Chang''an Academy. From now on, Cui Fu will be removed from his position as a lecturer in Chang''an college and expelled from the college. "


    "Not the Dean!"


    In a flash, someone asked for help.


    All the people who asked for help were in a panic.


    Today''s Yang Biao is too overbearing.


    A change in the past mild.


    Yang Biao looked around at the person pleading for Cui Fu and said in a deep voice, "if you want to plead for Cui Fu, you can do it. I agree. However, all those who wanted to intercede for Cui Fu were regarded as Cui Fu''s accomplices and expelled from the Academy. Now, I give you a choice. Are you willing to be expelled from Chang''an Academy with Cui Fu, or do you want to step aside and ignore Cui Fu''s business? "Brush!


    All the people who pleaded for Cui Fu changed greatly.


    These people are in a panic.


    Because Yang Biao is too strong.


    If you don''t agree, you will be expelled. In particular, Yang Biao was arranged by Zhang Xiu himself, not to mention Yang Biao, a great scholar in the sea, was the leader of Qingliu. Now Yang Biao is furious, and no one can bear it.


    The people who originally spoke for Cui Fu no longer spoke for Cui Fu when they saw that the situation was not good. They all chose to be wise and protect themselves.


    Cui Fu looked around, a desolate.


    "Yang Biao, you can''t expel me, you don''t have the right to expel me. What''s more, I used to teach the prince, and I can be regarded as the prince''s teacher. "


    "You deserve to be the prince''s teacher, too?"


    Yang Biao looked grim and said: "in the whole Chang''an academy, the real teacher of the prince is Kang Chenggong, which is approved by his majesty. The rest are just the prince''s occasional interest in listening to lectures. You should be expelled from the people who are under the banner of Prince. "


    "What are you doing? Drag it down!"


    Yang Biao yelled.


    With the order, the Chamberlain comes forward and drags Cui Fu to leave. Cui Fu constantly struggles, but the servants are all soldiers, and they are all highly skilled in martial arts. Cui Fu struggles for a moment and is taken away.


    The room was silent for a moment.


    Yang Biao looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice, "I stand firmly by your Majesty''s side. The will of your majesty is what Chang''an academy should comply with. What''s more, the land reform is related to the hegemony of the Qin Dynasty. Anyone who dares to stop it is disobedience to his majesty. No one is allowed to discuss this matter. Those who violate the order will be expelled from the Academy. "


    "Are you all clear?"


    Yang Biao looked around and asked again.


    "Clear!"


    Everyone was silent and answered carefully. Now, they dare not disobey Yang Biao''s orders, because Yang Biao is obviously serious. Under this premise, no one can stop Yang Biao''s power.

 Chapter 1094

    Yang Biao had a tough attitude. After he removed Cui Fu from his post, he deterred the rest of the lecturers and asked them to step down. After everyone retreated, Yang Biao returned to his seat.


    Sima Fang said with a light smile: "Yang Gonggang is really majestic. Cui Fu came here in a fierce manner, trying to coerce the Confucians of the academy to seize the power. Unexpectedly, you were so strong that a few words shocked the scene. Cui Fu, this person, was completely abandoned. "


    Yang Biao said: "the blame lies in his own ambition. If he does not have ambition, he will not be expelled if he honestly becomes an ordinary lecturer and cultivates his reputation. But the problem is that he wanted to seize power, but he killed himself. Without his Majesty''s approval, no one can succeed as the president of Chang''an Academy. What''s more, Cui Fu doesn''t have any qualifications and prestige. He can''t run Chang''an Academy at all. "


    Sima Fang said, "what Lord Yang said is true."


    Yang Biao said: "when it comes to land reform, I think that academies can no longer be unknown. It''s time to do something and make a statement."


    Sima Fang said, "what is Yang Gong going to do?"


    Yang Biao said: "I speak for the Yang family and support the land reform. My Yang family''s land in Hongnong county and even in Chang''an was handed over to the imperial court at the market price, and they listened to the imperial court''s arrangement. "


    Sima Fang said, "will Yang Gong be the first one to support the land reform?"


    Yang Biao said, "is Jiangong willing?"


    Sima Fang shook his head and said, "it''s not that I don''t want to. It''s just that Yang Gong should know that once we take the lead in expressing our position, I''m afraid we will be criticized by countless people. Even, there will be countless families, and then hostile to us


    "No harm!"


    Yang Biao big sleeve a whisk, way: "this has no influence, don''t care. As for land, I really don''t care about it. The reason why the Yang family is the Yang family is not because of how much land there is, but because of the scholarly heritage of the Yang family, which is the essence. "


    Sima Fang said: "what Mr. Yang said is true. Although Mr. Yang is old, he is as bold as he was then. In this way, Sima Fang should follow him. We are Sima''s family, and we will promote the news together. "


    Yang Biao stroked his beard and said with a smile, "it''s so good."


    After they agreed on their own arrangements, they went to the yangsima family to deal with their own affairs.


    On the other hand, Sima Yi quickly chose the location.


    When the reception place was decided, Sima Yi sent people to inform him that the rich and powerful families gathered in Chang''an began to pour in one after another, registering their own records and telling their reasons for opposing the land reform.


    Sima Yi arranged for the reception one by one.


    All the people who come here have registered their identities and explained their personal details clearly. Sima Yi sent the statistics to the royal guards and Wang Yue''s royal guards to investigate the news of these elite families.


    This is a counter measure.


    With Sima Yi in full swing, people from the Yang and Sima families came to the scene and expressed their willingness to carry out land reform.


    The news, like a pool of dead water, splashed a circle of ripples.


    It disrupted the original calm.


    The gathering of aristocratic families originally wanted to coerce Zhang Xiu to agree to land reform. But now, the Sima family and the Yang family suddenly stand up and disrupt this plan.


    This forced all the great families to solve the problems of the Yang and Sima families first.


    Otherwise, it will be unsustainable.


    Just as the aristocratic families gathered in Chang''an were preparing to deal with the Yang and Sima families, the Kuai, CAI and Pang families in Jingzhou suddenly voiced their support for land reform.


    Then the ministers in the court, as well as the key officials in the court, spoke out one after another and all agreed with the land reform.


    You know, many ministers in the court are also from famous families.


    These big families have expressed their views one after another, which makes the whole world, many big family members who were originally prepared to resist the land reform, fear. It''s not that they don''t want to resist. It''s because many famous families in Jingzhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Yizhou and other states all speak up and all agree with the land reform, which makes the big families gathered in Chang''an lose their support.


    All over the world, all of a sudden, the wind and clouds surged.


    Originally, many of the big clan leaders who had registered and wanted to resist the land reform went directly to cancel the records and did not insist on land reform any more. Even many people who had been waiting to register and boycott land reform gave up.


    All of a sudden, the massive resistance was hindered.


    There was no more momentum.


    Even the momentum of the original alliance has completely dissipated, and many people have left. Even if some of them stay in the same place, they are no longer the majority, only a few people are left.


    Sima Yi was originally prepared to let the royal guards take action, but now he has left so many people that even though he is ready to take action, now it is not necessary to use the royal guards.


    Sima Yi arranged for people to meet with the powerful families who were still sticking to it.


    Talk one by one.


    Under Sima Yi''s appointment, the aristocratic families who had resisted eventually changed their language and no longer insisted on the previous attitude. They all agreed to the land reform.So far, the opposition to land reform has been completely suppressed.


    But Sima Yi knew it.


    This depends on the timely appearance of the people of the Yang family and Sima family, and the support of Zheng Xuan, Pang Degong, Kuai Liang, and other big families. Because of the support of these big families, the powerful families gathered in Chang''an can be deterred.


    Sima Yi took advantage of the opportunity to carry out the national land reform.


    Originally, it was in Hanoi county.


    Now, it''s looking across the country.


    Sima Yi''s land reform didn''t rely on the governor of each state and the prefect of each county. Instead, she set up a team of land reform to go to each state and county to make statistics on the land reform.


    National land reform is not easy.


    It''s also because Daqin has enough financial support. Otherwise, it''s not easy to carry out land reform.


    Time goes by day.


    In December, Chang''an is already covered with heavy snow. Looking around, you can see that it is covered with silver. Now, the land reform of Daqin has been completed in the general direction, and then there are more detailed issues and consolidation measures.


    Sima Yi is in charge of land reform, but it has to continue.


    On this day, after Sima Yi reported the land reform to Zhang Xiu, a servant came to Zhang Xiu''s main hall shortly after Sima Yi left. With a look of joy on his face, the servant exclaimed, "Your Majesty, great joy, great joy! Qiao Guiren and Cao Guiren gave birth to their heirs at the same time today. Qiao Guiren gave birth to a dragon, Cao Guiren gave birth to a princess. "


    In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial concubines system was simplified. Except for the empress of the Imperial Palace, there were only four hierarchies: noble, beautiful, palace and cainu. Noble people were recognized by the imperial court, and they had titles and salaries. As for the beautiful, palace and cainu, they had no status and were not recognized by the imperial court.


    All the women in Zhang Xiu''s harem, except Huang Yueying who was the queen of the Qin Dynasty, were noble people with the same hierarchy.


    Zhang Xiu is also very happy to hear the report from the servant. He had only one son under his knee, but now he has one more son and one more daughter. He gave birth on the same day, which is a double happiness.


    Zhang Xiu thought rotation, immediately said: "Qiao Guiren''s son, named Zhang Ke; Cao Guiren''s daughter, named Zhang Zhi."


    "Here it is


    The internal servant was ordered to immediately respond, and quickly turned to pass the edict.


    After NEISHI left, Zhang Xiu finished what was left in her hands. She also changed her regular clothes and went back to the palace to visit Daqiao and Caojie. Both Daqiao''s son and Caojie''s daughter are very good-looking. Zhang Ke has six Jin and eight Liang, and Zhang Zhi has six Jin and six Liang. Although they haven''t grown yet, they look very much like Zhang Xiu.


    Looking at the two little guys, Zhang Xiu is also happy.


    He has a back.


    And the birth of two children, but also makes the harem, increased a lot of joy.


    At the same time, for Daqin, it was also a shot in the arm. The reason is very simple. If only Zhang Cheng is the successor of the state of Qin, it is not safe and secure. Now that there are more children, it is different. The foundation of the state of Qin is completely stable.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t care much about these. If he is here, the state of Qin will be as stable as Mount Tai.


    He is the root of Daqin.

 Chapter 1095

    Time flies into a new year.


    It''s warm in February.


    In the whole Daqin, everything revived and everything began to revive.


    Nowadays, most of Zhang Xiu stay in the palace. On the one hand, she deals with government affairs, and on the other hand, she accompanies her family. This nearly two years, Zhang Xiu did not choose to expand, has been committed to the governance of local, restore local production.


    The most important thing is that in the past year, the land reform has achieved results again. Under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, at least 80% of the land has been reformed.


    As a result, almost all the people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty were allocated land.


    It will take time for the remaining land to be nationalized.


    On this day, Sima Yi came to the imperial city again. After seeing Zhang Xiu in the main hall, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the land reform of the Qin Dynasty has been completed. Today, only one capable person is needed to carry on. I implore your majesty to rearrange the person in charge of the land reform. "


    He shook his head and said, "you are still in charge of the land reform. Since the land reform, there are still many problems. As for your official position, if you do not hold the post of minister of the Ministry of officials, you do not have to hold the post of minister of the Ministry of officials any more. You will go directly to the cabinet and decide state affairs together with the ministers of the cabinet. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Sima Yi looked happy.


    The cabinet is a higher level than the six ministries. All the people who enter the cabinet are promoted from the ministers. Moreover, a few days ago, Zhang Xiu made subtle adjustments to the cabinet. All those who want to join the cabinet in the future must make achievements in the local government.


    In other words, the future promotion must have sufficient qualifications, step by step from the local promotion. As for the so-called direct airborne cabinet, it is impossible.


    This is the standardization of the cabinet.


    In addition, the first and second cabinet is not a life-long system, but has a fixed number of years. Therefore, although the cabinet is an organ of power, in fact, it is also a cabinet with corresponding restrictions.


    Rao is so, also let people flock to.


    Sima Yi changed the subject and continued: "Your Majesty, in view of the achievements of land reform. The minister suggested that a notice should be issued to inform the whole world, so that all the people of the Qin Dynasty would also know the news. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed.


    But after thinking about it, Zhang Xiu said, "now that you are in the cabinet, listen to and see more. However, in addition to being responsible for the land reform, you are also responsible for the land reform. "


    Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty, please show me?"


    Zhang xiudao said, "now you are responsible for organizing newspapers. The name of the newspaper is Daqin daily."


    "Daqin daily?"


    Sima Yi blinked, with a strange look on her face.


    He didn''t understand.


    It''s completely confused.


    When it comes to Daqin daily, he never found anything about Daqin daily. In Sima Yi''s mind, she understood that it was something new.


    Just like the land reform.


    Before the land reform, who knows how to carry out it? Who knows that after the land reform, it will be beneficial to the great Qin Dynasty and solve the problem of common people''s farming under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty? Although the land reform has some troubles, it has also been successful.


    This also depends on Zhang Xiu''s prestige.


    If it had not been for Zhang Xiu''s prestige, I''m afraid that the newly established Daqin would have fallen apart.


    Sima Yi took a deep breath and asked, "Your Majesty, what kind of thing is this Daqin daily?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "in fact, this Daqin daily is just like a residence newspaper. It''s specially for people to read. In other words, he is also equivalent to a notice. "


    At this point, Zhang Xiu explained the general situation of Daqin daily, from the solicitation of contributions, to the printing of Daqin daily, as well as the sale of Daqin daily.


    After finishing, Zhang Xiu continued: "with the establishment of Daqin daily, like Daqin paper and coal industry, we can also set up our own organization to be responsible for the propaganda and distribution of newspapers. In particular, Daqin daily must be widely publicized, and even numerous people will subscribe to it, so this is also a business opportunity. "


    The existence of newspapers, in the era of lack of entertainment, is the most direct way to convey information.


    With mobile phones, it''s easy to collect all kinds of information. Therefore, there is less and less demand for paper newspapers, so that many newspapers can''t operate at all.


    But now it''s different.


    Daqin daily, like Daqin paper, can achieve the effect of monopoly.


    Because some information in Daqin daily is unique.


    After listening carefully, Sima Yi also showed a clear look on her face and nodded: "I understand what your majesty said. In the near future, Daqin daily will finish its work quickly. Daqin daily, it will be promoted soon. ""I look forward to your success."


    Zhang Xiu laughs. He is at ease with Sima Yi''s speed.


    "I''ll leave you!"


    Sima Yi turned and stepped down.


    After leaving the main hall, Sima Yi went to the office where the cabinet was located. As the highest organ of power in the Qin Dynasty, the cabinet has its own office. Jia Xu, Li Ru, Xu Shu and others all work in the cabinet.


    Now Sima Yi, with the merits of land reform, has stepped into the decision-making center of Daqin. It''s true that Sima Yi''s self-reliance is a little bit shallow, but in fact, Sima Yi''s contribution is great.


    Sima Yi should not be underestimated.


    After meeting Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Li Ru and others, Sima Yi talked about Daqin daily. Because the establishment of Daqin daily required the cooperation of various departments, Sima Yi said that before leaving.


    He returned to his house and began to think about the creation of Daqin daily. The contribution solicitation of Daqin daily is closely related to all departments of Daqin. However, Daqin daily itself has its own layout and text composition.


    This is what Sima Yi wants to arrange.


    It is necessary to design the layout and print the contents one by one, and then there will be newspapers.


    After all, there is printing, and printing is easier.


    Sima Yi stayed up all night and counted all the news in the Daqin daily. It was just dawn, so she got up and went to the imperial city again.


    When Sima Yi saw Zhang Xiu, she took out her own layout and explained the reason for the design.


    All explained clearly, Zhang Xiu''s face showed approval.


    Zhang Xiu mentioned some things about soliciting contributions and layout, but she didn''t explain them clearly. But Sima Yi explained everything in detail, which was not easy.


    It was Zhang Xiu who praised it.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said: "the layout of Daqin daily is good, and it can be promoted immediately. As for the contents of Daqin daily, I have already told you that we should leave enough space to carry more contents. Daqin daily is not only an official voice channel, but also a place for gathering talents'' opinions. As long as the court has a good reason to attack, it can take whatever the officials say


    "I understand


    Sima Yi replied solemnly.


    Through Zhang Xiu''s elaboration, in fact, Sima Yi has made it clear and understood how to arrange it.


    Sima Yi also knows the contents of the first edition.


    He knows what to post.

 Chapter 1096

    Chang''an City, west of the city.


    There are numerous vendors in the west of the city now. However, some of them are engaged in fruit business, some in cloth and silk business, and some in tea and grain business. But these vendors are not big businesses. They are all small vendors.


    The real tycoons are mainly concentrated in the north of the city.


    That''s where the rich live.


    In a relatively remote house in the west of the city, it was a tragedy.


    In the hall, right above.


    There was a middle-aged man in his early 40s with a fat figure. It''s just that the man''s eyes are dark, his face is depressed, and he looks dejected. His name is Zhou Yixing. When he was young, he didn''t know any big characters. He was a rogue. At the age of 30, there was a change. The prodigal son began to turn back and work hard to run a shop of his own.


    Zhou Yixing runs a book business.


    In recent years, under the catalysis of Xuan paper and printing, the cost of books has become too much cheaper, and many popular books have already spread in the market. Therefore, Zhou Yixing is a bookseller who specializes in selling books.


    But the problem is that there are countless people running bookstores in Chang''an city. There are countless people running bookstores, and Zhou Yixing has no background or abundant capital, so he was run and lost his business.


    They are all fighting price wars and losing money. Zhou Yixing can''t bear it.


    Now, even the rent of his shop has been in arrears for half a month. Fortunately, he dealt with the matter with justice, and when he rented the shop, he always sent the rent on time, so even if he was in arrears, the landlord didn''t turn him out for the time being and gave him a little time.


    However, Zhou Yixing had no solution.


    If you want to have a personal relationship, Zhou Yixing doesn''t have any personal relationship, so you can''t find someone to trust you.


    Relying on his strong strength, Zhou Yixing did not have enough money to support him. His price war has reached the point where he is even in arrears with the rent. It is conceivable that he is so short of money.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door from outside the hall.


    Then a middle-aged woman came in, younger than Zhou Yixing. When she saw Zhou Yixing, she said, "husband, you''ve been sitting for a long time. There is no solution to sitting down like this. Our bookstore is no longer operational. Anyway, someone has hired you to be the shopkeeper, so you should take it. At least, we need to make a living? "


    Zhou Yixing felt even worse when he listened to his wife.


    He has been running his own bookstore for many years. Over the years, he has been with books and learned a lot from them. He is not willing to give up his own bookstore.


    But he couldn''t bring the bookstore back to life.


    This is Zhou Yixing''s most helpless.


    Zhou continued to advise: "husband, we two can support each other. But have you forgotten the children who studied in Chang''an academy? In another month, he will go home to get his living expenses. If you don''t have money, then you will let your children live in the college. "


    "Alas..."


    Zhou Yixing sighed.


    Reality and ideal are the most difficult things for him to choose.


    In his heart, he still wants to continue running the bookstore. But the problem is that it''s hard to make ends meet. If it goes on like this, the whole family will have nothing to eat and drink.


    "Creak!"


    Suddenly, there was a sound of the door being pushed open at the gate of the yard.


    A young man rushed in.


    His name is Zhou Hong. He is Zhou Yixing''s nephew. He has always worked with Zhou Yixing. He hurried in, bowed to Zhou Yixing and said, "uncle, nephew has found a business opportunity, which will surely solve the crisis of Zhouji bookstore."


    "What business opportunities?"


    Zhou Yixing asked.


    He also held Zhou Hong in high esteem, because when he was young, Zhou Hong had already been able to take charge of his own affairs with Zhou Yixing.


    Zhou Hong said, "my nephew found out that there was a selling point of Daqin daily outside the imperial city. There were many interesting things in Daqin daily."


    With these words, Zhou Hong went to a Daqin daily from his sleeve.


    This Daqin daily was invented by Sima Yi in accordance with Zhang Xiu''s idea. However, the sale of Daqin daily is on the one hand as a residence newspaper, which is specially supplied to the Yamen of all States in the world, and on the other hand, it is sold in a special place outside the Imperial City.


    The planning of Daqin daily is just like that of later newspapers.


    There are four sections.


    Every page has different content.


    The contents of the four pages are quite detailed.


    After reading it, Zhou Yixing thought about it and said, "hong''er, do you mean we buy Daqin daily in large quantities and sell it in our bookstore?"


    "Yes


    Zhou Hong nodded solemnly.


    After a pause, Zhou Hong continued: "no one has considered it yet. We''ll go right away. Not only that, but also after consulting with the government, the west of Chang''an city will be operated by us. We can''t let others sell Daqin daily any more, so that we won''t be run on. Otherwise, we will be run again. As for what we buy, it must be in large quantities. Naturally, the price can be lower. ""Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhou Yixing looked at his wife and said, "you are at home. Hong''er and I are going to have a try. If I can''t do it this time, I''ll stop doing business by myself and go to look after the shop for others. "


    Zhou nodded, not to stop.


    Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong left the county government and went straight to the direction of the imperial city.


    When they arrived at the sales point of Daqin daily, although many people came to buy it, in fact, it was not lively enough. It''s very simple that Daqin Daily has no influence for the time being.


    Zhou Yixing, a peddler of Daqin daily, explained his intention to the attendants who sold Daqin daily. The attendants had never met him, and they had to report to each other. Now Sima Yi is in charge of Daqin daily. When he heard Zhou Yixing''s intention, he arranged for people to shout Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong into the room.


    Looking at them, Sima Yi said, "my official, Sima Yi, is responsible for the affairs of Daqin daily. You said that if you are going to buy Daqin daily in large quantities, you should do business with our official Daqin daily. What''s your plan? "


    Zhou Yixing''s brows rose.


    The man in front of us is actually Sima Yi, who is in charge of land reform.


    Sima Yi''s responsibility for land reform is well known all over the world. It is not polite to say that Sima Yi''s reputation in the world is no less than that of Xu Shu, because Sima Yi''s land reform involves the whole Qin Dynasty.


    He was in charge of land reform, so countless people knew about it.


    There are also countless people who are grateful.


    Zhou Yixing bowed slightly and said respectfully, "I''d like to report back to Mr. Sima. Zhou Yixing, a villain, is the owner of a bookstore. The sale of Daqin daily is certainly not enough if it is just such a selling point. So Xiaoren plans to buy Daqin daily in large quantities and sell it in Chang''an. "


    After a pause, Zhou Yixing said: "villains will buy a considerable amount, which can remove the inventory of Daqin daily and help promote Daqin daily. The villain''s condition is that in the west of Chang''an City, only my bookstores are allowed to sell Daqin daily, and Mr. Sima can no longer authorize other bookstores to sell Daqin daily. "


    He made the offer.


    At this moment, Zhou Yixing''s heart was also a little uneasy.


    After all, he did not know how Sima Yi would decide, and his life and death also depended on Sima Yi''s decision.

 Chapter 1097

    Sima Yi looked at Zhou Yixing in front of her eyes, squinted and carefully examined Zhou Yixing. In fact, before that, Sima Yi had planned to set up sales outlets for Daqin daily in the southeast and northwest cities of Chang''an, so as to sell Daqin daily.


    But it took too much manpower and material resources, so Sima Yi gave up her mind and set up a peddler''s shop outside the imperial city for the time being. She did it first, and then considered the follow-up instructions.


    Unexpectedly, Zhou Yixing came directly to the door.


    Zhou Yixing''s practice was beneficial to Sima Yi''s plan, but Sima Yi had another idea in her mind.


    Looking at Zhou Yixing, he said in a deep voice, "if you want to operate in the west of the city, how much do you think the one-time purchase is? In addition, do you think the west of the city can''t sell Daqin daily any more besides you? In the end, it''s not how much money we earn, but how much we promote it. "


    Zhou Yixing thought about it in his heart, and then said: "Mr. Sima, the amount of one-time purchase, villains think, the first time should not exceed 3000, this number is not much, not too little, not too much."


    "After sales, we can test a bottom."


    "Next time, the order quantity will be more accurate."


    "As for the shops selling Daqin daily in the west of the city, naturally there can''t be only one. We must open one at a certain distance, or sell newspapers with the help of the existing bookstores. But in order to avoid malicious bidding, only one shop in the west of the city can get the newspaper from Daqin daily, and the rest of the shops and bookstores in the west of the city can only get it from this bookstore. "


    "Only in this way can malicious competition be avoided."


    Zhou Yixing, with a solemn expression, said, "this is my consideration. Please judge it by Mr. Sima."


    After hearing this, Sima Yi nodded her approval.


    Zhou Yixing has a lot of experience in business, and his suggestions are very good.


    After a change of heart, Sima Yi said, "how much do you think is suitable for newspaper pricing? Although the price of Daqin daily is already fixed, I have not yet assessed whether it is reasonable. "


    Zhou Yixing said: "it depends on the cost of a Daqin daily. If the cost is low, the price can be reduced. If the cost is high, we have to consider the price according to the cost. But the villain thinks that since we need to consider promotion and focus on expanding influence, the sale of newspapers has little to do with the cost. The key is to lower the price and let more people see the newspapers. "


    Sima Yi''s face was full of praise.


    Good! pretty good!


    Zhou Yixing has a lot of experience in running newspapers. Even Sima Yi had a heart of love for talents, and wanted to take Zhou Yixing for his own use and bring him into the system of Daqin daily.


    The plan of Daqin daily is to form a Daqin newspaper system just like Daqin coal industry and Daqin paper industry. It needs a lot of talents to participate in the system. But such a system needs the participation of businessmen instead of scholars.


    Without a businessman''s mind, it is difficult to run Daqin daily.


    Sima Yi said: "Zhou Yixing, since you have come into contact with Daqin daily, what can you do if you want to run Daqin daily to expand its influence and make profits?"


    Zhou Yixing was a little confused.


    He didn''t understand how Sima Yi asked him such a question, or that it was Sima Yi''s intention to ask him.


    However, Zhou Yixing, who had been in business for many years, soon recovered and regained his composure. He solemnly said, "Mr. Sima, would you please allow me to think for a moment?"


    "No problem!"


    Sima Yi was not worried. Since he wanted to test Zhou Yixing, he was willing to give Zhou Yixing enough opportunities.


    Zhou Yixing thought carefully.


    Little by little the passage of time, half a quarter of an hour, fleeting.


    Qin Yishen said: "if you want to take into account the interests of both Mr. Qin and Mr. Zhou, you need to take a breath."


    "The first is the channel."


    "Villains used to be booksellers, selling books. If they sell a set of books, they will sell books to the maximum extent under the condition that all channels are unblocked and all selling points are selling."


    "It''s the same with newspapers."


    "For example, in Chang''an City, it is necessary to build channels at all levels to sell newspapers, and then as soon as there are newspapers, they will be sent out quickly."


    "It can get the message out in the shortest time."


    Zhou Yixing continued with a frank talk: "second, the price of newspapers. If we want to expand our influence, the cost of newspapers must be reduced again. It must be small profits but quick turnover. "


    "Because of the low price, more people buy Daqin daily. For example, you can buy a newspaper with a penny at hand. You can get news with a newspaper. Why not do it? "


    "After all, there''s a lot of information in the newspapers."


    "That''s what many people want to see.""So the iron has to be hard on its own, and the selling price has to be lowered again, so as to maximize the promotion."


    After saying two points in succession, Zhou Yixing said again: "the third point is to set up a special team to deliver newspapers. This newspaper should be sold not only in Chang''an and even Sili areas, but also in the whole territory of Daqin. Therefore, we have to make sure that the roads in different places are unblocked, and even the traffic between different places must be more frequent, so as to ensure that the newspapers can be delivered quickly. Even if we set up branches of newspapers all over the country, we can print and sell them locally according to the newspapers as soon as they are delivered. "


    Zhou Yixing said: "Mr. Sima, this is a shallow opinion that I thought of in a hurry. Please forgive me."


    "Not bad, not bad!"


    Sima Yi''s face was full of praise.


    Zhou Yixing is quite knowledgeable.


    It''s very good.


    Sima Yi said, "if you want to take the right to sell newspapers in the west of the city, I will consider it again and arrange for someone to inform you later. I''ll let you know whether it''s done or not. "


    "Thank you."


    After hearing this, Zhou Yixing bowed to thank him, but he was disappointed.


    Sima Yi didn''t make a decision immediately, so Zhou Yixing was worried. If Sima Yi doesn''t agree, his plan won''t succeed, and the bookstore won''t improve, that is, everything will be closed.


    Sima Yi waves her hand, and Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong leave. Just as they get to the door of the hall, Sima Yi stops them and asks them where they live before they leave. After Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong left, Sima Yi thought about it again. Then she got up and left the government office and took a carriage to the palace.


    On the other side, after Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong left, they walked down the street. Zhou Hong said, "uncle, Mr. Sima asked you how to run Daqin daily. You said, "does he mean anything?"


    Zhou Yixing joked: "you want to say that master Sima wants to attract me, right?"


    "Yes


    Zhou Hong answered immediately.


    Zhou Yixing shook his head and said, "you are too young after all. In this world, there is no such easy thing. Lord Sima''s inquiry is just a question, that''s all. Don''t think about the rest. Now we have to wait for news. Alas, I don''t know whether Mr. Sima is willing to delegate the management right of Daqin daily to us in the west of the city. "


    Zhou Hong clenched his fist and said, "certainly."


    "I hope so," said Zhou Yixing


    On Zhou Yixing''s face, it was already a frosty cheek, with a touch of uneasiness, but there was still more hope.

 Chapter 1098

    When Sima Yi came to the Imperial City, he saw Zhang Xiu in the palace, bowed to him and reported: "Your Majesty, Daqin daily is officially open. Today, thousands of newspapers have been sold. Of course, the number is still very small, far from reaching the expected goal. But at least, Daqin daily is in normal operation. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "we have to expand our influence and increase the influence of Daqin daily."


    "I understand


    Sima Yi solemnly responded.


    He knew that the orientation of Daqin daily was not only to make money, but also to expand its influence and publicize the policies of the imperial court in the whole world through Daqin daily.


    In other words, this is the mouthpiece of Daqin.


    Sima Yi changed his words and said, "Your Majesty, I am responsible for the management of Daqin daily. However, the specific operation of Daqin daily also needs people to be responsible. I have some ideas about the candidates for the operation of Daqin daily. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s ok if you say it!"


    Sima Yi said: "when I was working in Daqin Daily today, a bookseller named Zhou Yixing specially found Peichen, hoping to win the management right in the west of the city and be responsible for the management of the whole newspaper in the west of the city. At that time, I carefully asked Zhou Yixing about some newspapers. He was very insightful. "


    At present, Sima Yi talked about the three business modes mentioned by Zhou Yixing.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded.


    Zhou Yixing''s consideration is good, but in fact, it is not enough. Newspapers want to expand their influence, but they can also be used to make money, and it is extremely easy to make money.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you mean when you mention Zhou Yixing?"


    Sima Yi replied: "to report back to your majesty, I mean to solicit Zhou Yixing to be responsible for the operation of Daqin daily. Of course, this Daqin daily is not officialdom, it does not involve official positions. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    Sima Yi is in charge of the overall control, and there are people specially responsible for it. This is the most appropriate way.


    "Thank you


    After thanking him, Sima Yi said, "I''ll arrange it immediately and make use of Zhou Yixing."


    Zhang xiudao said: "since Zhou Yixing is in charge, you can tell Zhou Yixing that in Daqin daily, certain columns can also be specially put out to make money by advertising. For example, there is Daqin coal industry in Chang''an city. If we want to let more people know about Daqin coal industry, we can publicize Daqin coal industry in newspapers. We have to collect money. Specifically, it is the analogy, one by one to promote


    Sima Yi''s eyes lit up.


    It''s a good idea.


    Neither Sima Yi nor Zhou Yixing had ever considered advertising in official newspapers. But through Zhang Xiu''s VOD, Sima Yi immediately understood the business opportunities.


    Of course, this is related to the influence of newspapers. The greater the influence of Daqin daily, the wider the audience of Daqin daily, so the daily profit brought by Daqin daily is more considerable.


    Sima Yi arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty is holy. I understand. Alas, your majesty, a little mention will benefit us a lot. Your Majesty''s way of thinking makes me admire you very much. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "once upon a time, Zhongda also began to flatter."


    Sima Yi said, "I''m telling the truth."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled twice. She was also happy. She waved her hand and said, "go ahead. I''m looking forward to the day when Daqin daily will rise."


    "I''ll leave!"


    Sima Yi left respectfully.


    Just as Sima Yi came to the door of the main hall, he suddenly heard Zhang Xiu say: "wait a minute!"


    Sima Yi turned around and said, "Your Majesty, what can I do for you?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "since we want to use Zhou Yixing, we must find out the details of Zhou Yixing. If the actor of Zhou Yi violates the law and discipline, is not a good person, and has more crimes in his hands, then he can''t use Zhou Yi. Even if Zhou Yixing has the ability, it will not work. Therefore, you first ask Wang Yue to mobilize the royal guards and carefully investigate the details of the next week''s Yixing, and then make arrangements not too late. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi bowed down.


    Immediately, Sima Yi got up and left. When he got out of the hall, he found Wang Yue and said Zhang Xiu''s order. Wang Yue''s mastery of intelligence is extremely detailed, and the intelligence network of the royal guards is becoming more and more powerful.


    In less than half an hour after Wang Yuegang arranged the news, all the information of Zhou Yixing had been submitted to Wang Yuegang''s desk, and it was very detailed and there was not much missing.


    Wang Yue did not check, but handed the file to Sima Yi and said, "Mr. Sima, you can check it."


    "Thank you, Prince."


    After thanking him, Sima Yi left with Zhou Yixing''s file. Because of the large amount of information, he needed to read it carefully, so after leaving the palace, he took a carriage back to his office to check Zhou Yixing''s information carefully.


    When Zhou Yixing was a rogue, although he was a rogue, he also learned to fight for justice. In the final analysis, he was a Ranger. But in the end, he changed his old ways and managed the bookstore honestly without any tricks.Just like this, Zhou Yixing''s bookstore has been in operation till now.


    This is due to Zhou Yixing''s conduct.


    After reading, Sima Yi was more determined. In particular, Zhou Yixing was once a knight errant, who was quite dangerous. But when he was run, he still abided by his conscience and never fooled around, which was praised by Sima Yi.


    Without further delay, Sima Yi arranged for a carriage to be prepared, so she boarded the carriage and went to Zhou Yixing''s home in person. According to the news in the newspaper, Zhou Yixing''s life is very tight now. He wants to have a look.


    Zhou Yi is an expert.


    After Zhou Yixing and Zhou Hong returned and told the news to Zhou, Zhou was also a little worried.


    Zhou said: "husband, although someone bought the newspaper, when I went out to buy vegetables, someone also said something about the newspaper. However, can this really make money and help the Zhou family get rid of the current predicament? "


    "Certainly."


    Zhou Yixing firmly replied, but deep in his eyes, there was still a strong worry.


    He is not sure whether Sima Yi will give him a chance.


    This is something Zhou Yixing can''t be sure about.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, sounded outside the yard, with the knock on the door, followed by a slightly hoarse voice: "brother Zhou at home?"


    On hearing this, Zhou Yixing quickly went forward and opened the door of the courtyard, with a smile on his face.


    At the gate is a fat man who is nearly 50 years old. This is the landlord of Zhou Yixing''s shop. Zhou Yixing''s bookstore is to rent this person''s house.


    The fat man''s name is Shacheng. There are several houses in the west of Chang''an city.


    Very rich.


    After seeing Zhou Yixing, Sha Cheng said with a smile, "brother Zhou, please forgive me for coming here uninvited."


    Zhou Yixing said, "brother Sha, you''re welcome."


    Sha Cheng said again: "we''ve known each other for many years. We''re old brothers, so I''ll keep talking about everything, and I won''t hide it. Now, brother, you have offended people. Some people don''t want you to continue to run the bookstore. Even, the other party left the relationship, found someone to put pressure on me, let me close your shop. I can''t help it. It''s hard to do for my brother, so I have to take back the shop ahead of time. Of course, you owe some rent, that''s all. When you''re free, just take time to move the books away. "


    After hearing this, Zhou Yixing felt a thump in his heart.


    The worst news came down.


    Zhou Yixing even felt that his legs were soft, but he still bit his teeth, took a deep breath and said, "brother Sha, it''s hard for you to do it."


    "What''s hard to do is not hard to do. I''m sorry for you."


    Sha Cheng is also helpless.


    He is also quite fond of Zhou Yixing, but now he is unlucky and has been dealt with. So Sha Cheng can''t resist this.


    After Sha Cheng left, the expression on Zhou Yixing''s face was even more lost. He didn''t expect that, all of a sudden, he was struck by such a thunderbolt, which cut off all his retreat.

 Chapter 1099

    Zhou Yixing, Zhou Hong and Zhou Shi all showed helplessness and even despair on their faces.


    The road to business is completely broken.


    However, Zhou Yixing was the first to recover. He rubbed his sour face and said with a smile, "it seems that God doesn''t want me to run a bookstore. In that case, I will go out to work according to the previous arrangement. Anyway, I have to be a shopkeeper. Hong''er also follows me to help others. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Hong also followed.


    "Pa! Bang


    All of a sudden, there was a quick knock on the door.


    The sound of knocking is not to button the door, but to clap the door. It is to clap the palm of the hand on the door, which makes a rapid sound. With the sound, Zhou Yixing opened the door. Zhou Yixing frowned when he saw the man standing outside the door.


    Outside was a middle-aged man in his late 40s.


    This man is of medium build, with a sharp chin and a sharp mouth. With a pair of small eyes and a proud look, he said with a smile, "Zhou Yixing, we meet again. I heard that Sha Cheng took back your shop. Now that you don''t even have a shop, how do you run a bookstore. I''ve offended Yu Zheng. You deserve it. "


    His name is Yu Zheng. He is also a bookseller and lives in the west of the city.


    But Yu Zheng has a lot of contacts.


    When he was in conflict with Zhou Yixing, he united with the rest of the people to suppress Zhou Yixing, which led to the decline of Zhou Yixing''s shops. Now when Sha Cheng comes, Yu Zheng follows him.


    Yu Zheng held his head high, his toes high and his breath high.


    He has long been unhappy with Zhou Yixing.


    I want to kill Zhou Yixing.


    However, although Zhou Yixing doesn''t have any contacts, he is also a Ranger. If he is really in a hurry, it''s not good for him to jump over the wall in a hurry. So Yu Zheng didn''t arrange for people to start, but destroyed Zhou Yixing''s shop step by step.


    Zhou Yixing clenched his fists and felt resentful.


    He even wanted to kill Yu Zheng.


    Seeing this, Yu Zheng said with a smile, "why, do you want to hit me or kill me? Come on, come on, I welcome it. Today, in the great Qin Dynasty, you can''t avoid prison as long as you punch down the law. Come, come, come as you please


    After hearing this, Zhou Yixing felt angry.


    In the end, the fist was loosened.


    Zhou Yixing gritted his teeth and said, "Yu Zheng, you are not welcome in my Zhou family. You can go now. "


    Yu Zheng said, "Oh, I''m so annoyed!"


    Zhou Yixing said: "do you want to stay? If you continue to stay, it''s trespassing. At that time, even if I deal with you, I have every reason. "


    "What a dead duck


    Yu Zheng snorted and said, "I''d like to see how tough Zhou Yixing is and how he can hold on. Guess, you still want to go to other shops to be shopkeepers. You have a dream. I''ve cut off all your back roads. "


    Brush!


    Zhou Yixing''s face changed again.


    Although the store was taken back and Zhou Yixing was stimulated by Yu Zheng, his heart was angry, but in fact, Zhou Yixing felt that there was a way out, so he was not impatient.


    But when he heard Yu Zheng''s words, he couldn''t help but get angry. Yu Zheng deceived people too much, which didn''t give him a way to live. If there is no way to survive, Zhou Yixing can not wait to die.


    Just as Zhou Yixing was about to start, suddenly there was a knock on the door outside the yard.


    Because the door was opened, two people entered after the knock. The leader, no one else, is Sima Yi, and the latter is Sima Yi''s bodyguard, who is responsible for protecting Sima Yi''s safety.


    "Lord Sima!"


    As soon as Zhou Yixing saw Sima Yi, he immediately saluted.


    Zhou Hong and Zhou Shi also followed.


    Yu Zheng heard Zhou Yixing''s words and looked at Sima Yi, but he was disdained. After all, Sima Yi was young, and Yu Zheng didn''t think it was Sima Yi for a while. He only thought that Sima Yi was the rescuer moved by Zhou Yixing.


    Yu Zheng snorted and said, "don''t think it''s a big man. I''ll tell you, you''re involved in what''s going on here. Go back where you come from. "


    When Sima Yi heard this, she looked cold.


    He has a bad temper.


    In the face of Zhang Xiu, Jia Xu and others who are more powerful than him, Sima Yi is willing to sincerely study. However, Sima Yi was not happy with the sharp mouthed man''s sharp mouth. So Sima Yi raised her hand and said, "your mouth stinks. Open your mouth ten."


    I''ll be waiting for you.


    He swung his arm and fanned out.


    "Pa! Bang


    After ten slaps, Yu Zheng''s face was red and swollen, and his whole face was disgusting. He looked at Sima Yi and said, "you, you..."


    Sima Yi light way: "how, in front of my Sima Yi''s face, do you have anything to say?"Sima Yi?


    When Yu Zhengyi heard this, his brain exploded.


    It turned out to be Sima Yi.


    This is a senior member of the central government in charge of land reform, and even a member of the cabinet.


    Yu Zheng''s legs softened and he fell to the ground. His eyes turned to look at Zhou Yixing. His eyes were full of resentment. He said to himself, "why do you have such a relationship with Sima Yi. Now that Ma Yixing is in front of us, he has nothing to say.


    Sima Yi saw her eyes and fell to the ground. Yu Zheng, who looked like mud, said, "get out of my way. Don''t hinder my eyes here."


    "Yes, yes!"


    As soon as Yu Zheng heard this, he quickly climbed to one side.


    Zhou Yixing bowed himself again and said, "Mr. Sima came by himself, which made the villain panic."


    Sima Yi said, "the reason why I came here in person is because of your grace. I recommend you to take charge of the operation of Daqin daily. Would you like to?"


    Zhou Yixing''s eyes suddenly widened, and even a momentary blank appeared in his mind.


    Accident!


    What a surprise.


    It never occurred to him that Sima Yi wanted him to take charge of Daqin daily directly, and this was approved by the emperor.


    Yu Zheng was on one side. When he heard the news, he felt even more sad and sighed.


    It''s over!


    He offended Zhou Yixing to death.


    But today, Zhou Yixing is obviously promoted to become rich. He has stepped into the officialdom and become a man of the Qin Dynasty. A businessman like him, in front of Zhou Yixing, was the most humble existence.


    Yu Zheng''s heart is extremely lost.


    Zhou Yixing didn''t care about Yu Zheng''s heart. After thinking about it, he said, "Mr. Sima thinks highly of it. The villain is willing to take charge of Daqin daily. He will do his best to live up to the high expectations of Lord Sima and his majesty. "


    "Good!"


    Sima Yi said with a smile, "I look forward to your performance."


    At this time, Sima Yi took another look at Yu Zheng and said, "what are you going to say here? Go away!"


    "Yes, yes, villain, get out of here!"


    Yu Zheng didn''t dare to delay, so he quickly left Zhou Yixing''s yard. After Yu Zheng left, Sima Yi looked at Zhou Yixing and said, "arrange your personal affairs as soon as possible. Come to report tomorrow and start to deal with things."


    "Here it is


    Zhou Yixing bowed to answer.


    Sima Yi stopped staying, turned around and left the Zhou family.


    At this moment, the Zhou family''s happy face, a face showing a happy smile.

 Chapter 1100

    Zhou Yixing''s family background is not very good, not many contacts, but he knows countless booksellers. Although these people are just ordinary relations with him on weekdays, it is better for Zhou Yixing to know these people.


    When Zhou Yixing didn''t have much energy, these insights couldn''t play any role. But now when Zhou Yixing wants to take charge of Daqin daily, his identity suddenly changes. These people he knows will become Zhou Yixing''s contacts and help him.


    Zhou Yixing first lets Zhou Hong go to Sha Cheng''s residence, and tells him that he doesn''t pay attention to the books in his bookstore. He asks Sha Cheng to help him. When Zhou Hong told Sha Cheng the news, Sha Cheng also asked about Zhou Yixing. When Sha Cheng learned that Zhou Yixing was valued by Sima Yi, he became a member of the Daqin government and the leader of Daqin daily. He was shocked.


    Zhou Yixing is really lucky.


    Once Zhou Yixing, in front of Sha Cheng, that is also a lot worse. But now, Zhou Yixing has thrown away Sha Cheng. Even when Sha Cheng sees Zhou Yixing, he has to be respectful.


    Not daring to delay, Sha Cheng immediately got up and went to Zhou Yixing''s residence.


    When Sha Cheng arrived, Yu Zheng and other booksellers came.


    Yu just came to apologize with a gift.


    He offended Zhou Yixing. Before that, Sima Yi told him to go away, but Yu Zheng didn''t dare to apologize when he got home. Today, Zhou Yixing is the official of the Qin Dynasty. Zhou Yixing wanted to deal with him in one sentence, so Yu Zheng didn''t dare to delay and apologized as soon as possible.


    They entered the courtyard and congratulated Zhou Yixing and presented gifts to each other.


    Zhou Yixing took a look at Yu Zheng, but he didn''t deal with him.


    There was no hard talk.


    In other words, he was once a young man. Zhou Yixing is sure to be rewarded when he was young, but now he has been smoothed out. What''s more, if he wants to be in charge of the Daqin daily, he can''t give people the impression that he must repay others. He must be kind and make money.


    This is good for him to take charge of Daqin daily.


    Zhou Yixing exposed the contradiction with Yu Zheng in front of everyone, but did not accept Yu Zheng''s gift. For Yu Zheng, Zhou Yixing''s lack of investigation made him feel completely relaxed as if he had been granted an amnesty.


    The rest of the people who came to congratulate Zhou Yixing accepted it, but they didn''t accept any gifts.


    After thanking all the people, Zhou Yixing said, "ladies and gentlemen, I am now in charge of Daqin daily under the command of master Sima. I believe you all know about Daqin daily. It''s not polite to say that this Daqin daily is bound to trigger a trend, and there will be countless people buying Daqin daily. "


    "Therefore, I''m going to authorize Daqin daily to sell."


    "In Chang''an City, there will be a bookseller in charge of each city. Then, the Booksellers in the urban areas go to the general manager to buy newspapers and sell them. "


    "I''m not in charge of retail sales of newspapers."


    "It''s just a mass sale."


    Zhou Yixing looked at all of you and said, "so you can go and publicize it. I will sell the right to sell newspapers in the four cities of southeast, northwest and northwest in the way of the highest price. Anyone who takes the right to sell can buy newspapers from me. The rest can only buy from these four cities. "


    "Of course, the price of newspapers is still with me. You can''t price them."


    "But I''m sure you can make money. If you can''t make money, you don''t have to compete and operate. You don''t have to worry about that. "


    Zhou Yixing said: "I always pay attention to win-win situation when I do things. I, Daqin daily, want to make a profit. In addition, you should also be able to make money, everyone can make money, this is the best way. If I make money in Daqin daily, you''ll lose money and make money. It won''t last long. "


    "Mr. Zhou Shengming!"


    In the crowd, Yu Zheng was the first to speak.


    At this time, Yu Zheng was eager to curry favor with Zhou Yixing. He didn''t ask Zhou Yixing to give preferential treatment, but only asked Zhou Yixing not to bear grudges.


    "Mr. Zhou is wise!"


    "Mr. Zhou is wise!"


    ¡­¡­


    Booksellers began to speak one after another.


    When everyone heard this, their faces were full of approval and excitement. At the same time, their hearts are already excited, and they all begin to think about how to get the management right.


    Only by seizing the right to sell in one of the four districts can we really make a profit.


    Zhou Yixing waved his hand and said, "everyone, please go back. Each brings his own gift, and I will not repeat it. I''ll be at my office tomorrow, and you''re welcome. "


    Everyone thanks and leaves.


    Yu just walked at the end, but he didn''t leave. He bowed and said, "Mr. Zhou is magnanimous. He doesn''t care about villains. Villains are very grateful. These money, villains are not apologizing, nor congratulating adults on their promotion, nor are they bribes. It''s just that the competition in bookstores before has led to considerable losses for adults. These properties are converted compensation. Please accept them. "If Zhou Yixing doesn''t accept gifts, Yu Zheng is always worried.


    So he changed his words.


    As soon as Zhou Yixing brushed his sleeve, he said, "Yu Zheng, I won''t say more if it''s superfluous. Take back the things you bring. I won''t accept any property. You don''t have to worry about the contradiction between you and me


    "Yes, yes, Mr. Zhou. Thank you, Mr. Zhou."


    When Yu Zheng saw this, he said nothing more.


    He took his present and left in a hurry.


    In the courtyard, peace was restored.


    Zhou Hong''s face was full of joy and said, "uncle, this is just the beginning. After the news that you are in charge of Daqin Daily has been thoroughly spread, there will certainly be more people to visit. "


    Zhou reminded: "my husband, Mr. Sima thinks highly of us and gives us a chance. You must cherish it. Don''t ruin your bright future because of a moment''s confusion. "


    "Don''t worry, madam. I understand."


    Zhou Yixing has a confident look on his face. He is very clear about his previous situation and his present situation. It was just a matter between Sima Yi''s thoughts, and he soared to the sky.


    He should cherish such an opportunity.


    It won''t be wasted.


    Zhou Yixing said, "there must be a visit in the afternoon. I won''t accept the gifts. However, I will continue to publicize and implement some of the business methods of Daqin daily and the following arrangements, telling these booksellers and even the rest of them. This will also help me start to deal with government affairs when I go to office tomorrow. "


    "My uncle is wise!"


    When Zhou Hong heard this, he gave a thumbs up and praised it.


    Zhou Yixing said, "hong''er, you will follow me tomorrow. For the time being, you can only be my personal companion. After all, my position is arranged by master Sima, and I can''t arrange it for you at will. "


    Zhou Hong said: "uncle, don''t worry. I understand."


    Today, Zhou Hong also has a vision for his future. Although Zhou Yixing can''t arrange for him for the time being, for a long time, when Daqin daily needs people, he can arrange his position.


    This is Zhou Hong''s confidence.

 Chapter 1101

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Zhou Yixing had already packed up, put on new clothes, and combed his hair carefully. After he took Zhou Hong to the location of Daqin daily, he went straight to see Sima Yi.


    Sima Yi immediately arranged Zhou Yixing to take over Daqin daily.


    When the order was given, Zhou Yixing began to be a director.


    Not long after that, people who heard the news gathered outside the Daqin daily. They had already got the news and wanted to fight for the right to sell newspapers as agents.


    According to Zhou Yixing''s plan yesterday, each of Chang''an''s four cities, Southeast, northwest, has its own people fighting. In the end, the price of the agency right of the newspaper is quite high.


    However, the four districts in the East, South, West and North won 100 taels of gold. On average, the agency power of one district is about 25 taels of gold.


    For a stranger, it''s a high price.


    Maybe in the future, prices will go up.


    But now, it''s different.


    After all, Daqin Daily has just been born, and everything is still unknown, so it''s good to have so much money. However, Zhou Yixing also knows that once the newspaper is popular, it will definitely make a profit, so this is only one year''s agency right.


    Next year, it''s going to have to compete again.


    After making proper arrangements, Zhou Yixing announced the corresponding measures for the sale of newspapers, and finally said: "all the provisions have been told to you. Next, you can arrange the sale of newspapers in the four major urban areas of Chang''an. Next, I hope you can spread out the channels of newspapers in the shortest time


    And when they heard this, they did not linger any longer, but went on their own.


    Among the newspapers in the four major urban areas, the least one person received 6000 newspapers and the most one person received 10000 newspapers.


    People in charge of the four major urban areas peddle and sell their own products when they go back. On the one hand, they sell books by themselves, on the other hand, they sell them to other merchants in large quantities, so that booksellers can participate in the selling.


    As the price has been set for a long time, it is extremely cheap, that is, three copper coins for a newspaper, the price is very low. After all, the paper of this newspaper is not made of high-quality rice paper. It is poor rice paper with low cost.


    The emergence of newspapers immediately triggered the purchase of countless people.


    This scholar should understand the situation.


    If you don''t study, you also want to know. Therefore, the people who buy newspapers in the four major urban areas of Chang''an are very crowded. The newspapers won by the four major cities were sold out in a very short time.


    Countless people, talking about the contents of the newspaper.


    Many people are commenting.


    This is the purpose of newspapers, which can make people understand national policies, what the country has done and how to do it. It can make people more convenient.


    Zhou Yixing also paid close attention to the news in a timely manner. He was relieved to learn that the following newspapers were sold out, and even countless people were talking about things in the newspapers.


    It''s done!


    When he first took charge of Daqin daily, it can be said that he took a solid step.


    Zhou Yixing sorted out what happened today and what he wanted to do next. He came to Sima Yi''s office in person, reported the result of the day to Sima Yi respectfully, and finally said: "my Lord, Daqin Daily has just started. The next step should be better and better. However, there are still many details that need to be corrected. As for the expansion to all the states in the country, it will take some time. "


    Sima Yi said, "it''s OK. Just go on slowly."


    "Here it is


    When Zhou Yixing heard Sima Yi''s words, he felt at ease.


    As long as Sima Yi doesn''t urge him, he can push forward steadily and ensure the steady progress of Daqin daily.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, suddenly sounded outside the study.


    Sima Yi''s relatives entered, bowed to Sima Yi''s ear, whispered a word, and then turned back.


    Sima Yi said with a smile: "Zhou Yixing, you are really lucky. Your majesty has heard about the newspaper and wants to see you in person. Let''s go. Let''s go into the palace and meet your majesty. "


    "Here it is


    After hearing this, Zhou Yixing became excited.


    He wanted to meet the emperor.


    It''s a great honor. It''s a blessing I can''t ask for all my life.


    Zhou Yixing followed Sima Yi and took a carriage to the outside of the imperial city. They dismounted and walked into the palace. Entering the Imperial City, Sima Yi was calm and didn''t feel nervous, but Zhou Yixing was very nervous. His legs were trembling, as if they lacked strength.


    Soon, Sima Yi and Zhou Yixing entered the hall.


    Sima Yi bowed to the ground, while Zhou Yixing knelt down with a plop. He had never seen Zhang Xiu before. Now a see Zhang Xiu, subconscious, is already kneeling on the ground, kowtow to Zhang Xiu salute.


    "Get up!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order."Thank you


    Zhou Yixing stood up, still bowing, with a careful look.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Zhou Yixing!"


    His voice was flat, but it was full of endless majesty. When Zhou Yixing heard it, he said, "Your Majesty, villain is here."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I am very satisfied with the operation of Daqin daily. Although today''s Daqin daily does not involve officialdom. But the future of Daqin daily is to set up a separate Daqin newspaper industry, just like Daqin coal industry and Daqin paper industry. At that time, Daqin newspaper industry will also be incorporated into the officialdom system. Do it well. I''ll take care of you. Daqin Daily has a bright future. "


    After hearing this, Zhou Yixing felt his blood boiling.


    He was full of excitement.


    In his impression, Zhang Xiu, as the son of heaven of a country, must be dignified and dignified. She is very serious. However, Zhang Xiu earnestly asked, let alone optimistic about him.


    Rao is Zhou Yixing''s age, older than Zhang Xiu, but in fact, Zhou Yixing is already at the foot of Zhang Xiu. A heart is willing to work for Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu did not say much. She waved her hand and Zhou Yixing dismissed her.


    Only Sima Yi was left.


    With a smile on her face, Sima Yi said, "Your Majesty, Zhou Yixing is in charge of Daqin daily. However, in order to expand the influence of the Daqin daily, I think that we should take a rest of the main roads of all the states in the world to ensure that the news can be transmitted accurately and quickly. In this way, the newspaper can spread in the shortest time


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "if you want to be rich, you should build roads first. It''s really a good suggestion to take a road rest. However, this road needs more manpower and material resources to be renovated. "


    For Zhang Xiu, he has seen the skyscrapers of later generations and the development of cities in later generations. He has a better understanding of the main road connection between cities, and has achieved real access in all directions.


    However, in this era, due to the limited productivity, it is not easy to achieve this effect.


    Relatively speaking, it is much more difficult.


    What Zhang Xiu can do now is to improve the slightly flat area on the basis of the original road.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue rushed in and bowed himself to report: "Your Majesty, Hu Mo, the left servant of the Ministry of industry, asked to see you. He looks like he''s in a hurry, and says that today''s Ministry of work has invented a wonderful thing. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, ordered: "call people in."


    Since the end of the national war, Hu Mo has returned to work in the Ministry of industry, and all the Mohist children he brought out also work in the Ministry of industry, and there are special places for Mohist children to study, so the Mohist people can invent all kinds of utensils to the maximum extent.

 Chapter 1102

    NEISHI to inform, not long, Hu Mo came to the hall.


    Hu Mo bowed to Zhang Xiu and quickly said, "Your Majesty, I have developed a new thing to solidify the ground and even the wall. In my humble opinion, it can be used to build roads and houses. Therefore, I hastened to report to your majesty. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    It can solidify the ground.


    Is it cement?


    Zhang Xiu gave enough authority and treatment to Hu Mo and other Mohist children to let them invent and create. These days, a lot of small things, as well as some strange things come out.


    "Let''s go and have a look."


    Zhang Xiu can''t wait to stand up and orders Sima Yi to accompany her.


    Hu Mo is glad to see that Zhang Xiu attaches so much importance to it.


    The party quickly went out of the hall and went straight to the workshop where the work department was sitting. After everyone arrived, Hu Mo immediately ordered people to move out the ingredients.


    Hu Mo said: "Your Majesty, this is the ingredient obtained after calcination. You only need to mix it with cold water, and then apply it on the ground to strengthen the ground. On the wall, it''s the same. It''s something we get by chance. After many times of improvement, it has such an effect. "


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she immediately laughed.


    Cement!


    This is cement!


    Although the effect of this cement is certainly not as good as that of later generations, it only needs to be improved step by step, but it can continue to approach. For Zhang Xiu, as long as cement appears, it is a big leap.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "does it have a name?"


    Hu Mo said: "not at the moment, and we have just finished the improvement, and there is no mass production. Moreover, its purpose has not been determined for the time being. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s mixed with water. After mixing it up, it''s like a puddle. It''s named after cement. But what have you found out about the use of cement? "


    Hu Mo said: "Your Majesty, what we have found for the time being is that after mixing it with water, it can be put on the ground or on the wall to reinforce the ground and wall. The rest is not found."


    "It''s not enough," Zhang said


    Hu Mo said: "I will do my best to live up to your Majesty''s high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu thought, said: "the effect of cement, out of the plaster on the wall, the ground, you can also directly cast slate, bridge paving, also can make the ground more stable. I''ll show you the iron bars. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo immediately arranged it.


    Sima Yi stood aside, looking at all this in his eyes, a little confused. He couldn''t understand it, but he was shocked. It seemed that Zhang Xiu had already understood the effect of cement and wanted to show it to Hu mo.


    You know, the cement was developed by Hu Mo and other craftsmen. This is the first time in the world. However, it seems that Zhang Xiu has already understood everything about cement.


    It''s really shocking.


    Sima Yi stood quietly, watching the development of all this.


    Not long after that, the craftsmen of the work department brought iron bars.


    After Zhang Xiu saw it, she frowned, because the iron bars she took out were thick, too thick. Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "is it only so thick, no finer?"


    "Yes!"


    Hu Mo nods and answers.


    Zhang xiudao: "take out a batch again, about have this iron bar two or three into thick can."


    Hu Mo waved his hand and ordered the waiter to prepare immediately.


    After a while, she took a batch of thinner iron bars. Zhang Xiu took off her robe directly, and asked someone to take the wooden board and so on. She put the iron bars inside and put the cement in the temporary mold of the stone slab. This stone slab, about two inches high, one foot wide and eight feet long, is fixed in the mould after all the cement is poured in.


    After finishing all this, Zhang Xiu said: "when the cement is completely solidified, this is a long stone slab. If this kind of stone slab is laid on the road, you can imagine how convenient it will be to walk. Even bridges and roads can be paved in this way. In particular, with iron bars in it, and even better steel bars, its firmness is better. "


    It''s not that Zhang Xiu doesn''t use steel bars. There are no such conditions.


    It''s nice to be able to use iron bars.


    When Hu Mo heard this, his eyes lit up and he respectfully said, "Your Majesty, I understand. I didn''t think of this before. In particular, this kind of stone slab can completely replace taking stones from the mountains. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "you can find out how to do it. What I want to ask is, when can mass production of this cement be carried out now? "


    Hu Mo said: "report to your majesty, there is no production stove for the time being. It will take at least half a month for mass production. After everything is built up, mass production can be carried out. ""I''ll give you half a month."


    Zhang Xiuchuan''s coat and robe, then said: "half a month later, I need a lot of cement. As for the money you need, you should draw up a statement and I will carry it out with my approval. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo was happy to respond.


    Today''s Mohist children who have entered the Ministry of industry can all show their talents and ambition, and they are the best. In particular, cement needs mass production, but also requires the participation of countless craftsmen. Many Mohist children are able to take part in it.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Sima Yi. She said in a deep voice: "about road construction, the appearance of cement now provides you with an opportunity. The principle of road construction is to start from Chang''an and look at the surrounding areas, especially the major cities


    Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, I''m afraid it will cost a lot to build roads. Even if the material is produced by us, it also needs countless manpower. As long as it involves human and material resources, it will cost a lot of money. Of course, corvee can also be levied, but once corvee is levied, it will certainly affect the people. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse way: "levy corvee, certainly not desirable.". In the case of road construction, money can be borrowed from Daqin bank in the form of work relief. Anyone who comes to work will be paid. As for the loan money, after the road is dredged, for the goods transported, the corresponding money can be collected. Even if money is needed, it will continue to be allocated from the Treasury. Road construction is a big thing. As long as the road is dredged, it will be beneficial but not harmful. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Sima Yi spoke.


    With Zhang Xiu, Sima Yi would be able to build roads with great force. Today, Sima Yi is in charge of land reform, Daqin daily, and road construction. There are more and more things on hand, but Sima Yi enjoys it.


    After arranging Sima Yi''s affairs, Zhang Xiu takes back her eyes and falls on Hu Mo, saying, "who first invented cement?"


    Hu Mo said, "it''s Wan Dayou of the Ministry of industry to report back to your majesty."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu heard the name of Wan Dayou, she chuckled in her heart. The name was easy to remember. He immediately said, "shout Wan Dayou up. I want to see him."


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo arranged to go on.

 Chapter 1103

    After a while, Wan Dayou came to Zhang Xiu. Some of Wan Da''s age is in his early forties, but his hands are extremely rough, full of cracks and cocoons.


    This is a simple craftsman.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he knelt down on the ground like a jade pillar and said excitedly, "I''ve got a lot of villains. I''d like to meet your majesty."


    Wan Dayou has also seen Zhang Xiu.


    Of course, I saw it from a distance and never said a word to Zhang Xiu. Now, he was summoned by Zhang Xiu. His heart was agitated. Kneeling on the ground, he was confused. He didn''t expect that he was summoned by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu reached out to hold up Wan Dayou and said, "you invented cement. It''s very good. Although the improvement of cement is certainly the credit of the craftsmen of the whole work department, without your first invention, there would be no cement now. Your credit should come first. "


    When Wan Da heard Zhang Xiu''s praise, he was even more excited. His red ears rose. He said, "Your Majesty is praising me falsely. I just found it by accident, not really studying cement. It happened to be discovered when studying something else. "


    "No matter what, cement was invented," Zhang said


    For a while, Wanda didn''t know how to answer the phone, but some of them stood on one side with a happy smile on their face.


    He was very excited.


    Today, I had a talk with Zhang Xiu, which can be said for at least ten years. I can tell everyone about today''s deeds. For people at the bottom of Wanda, Zhang Xiu''s praise and reception are the most exciting things.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you have meritorious service in the imperial court, I give you Yicheng Pavilion Marquis, reward 300."


    "Thank you


    When Wan Da heard this, he knelt down again to thank him.


    At this moment, Wan Dayou was even more excited. His whole body trembled slightly. He is the most common craftsman, that is, he can manipulate some objects. He doesn''t understand the four books and five classics, poetry and ode, the way of governing the country, and even less the way of marching and fighting. But now, it suddenly became the Marquis of Yicheng Pavilion. With the title of marquis, it can be said that the ancestral tombs are full of smoke.


    It is true that Marquis Ting is the lowest Marquis, but after all, it is a title.


    It''s different to have a title or not.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let Wan Da have a chance. Then she looked at Hu Mo and said, "the invention of Yiying made by the Ministry of industry is beneficial to the people and the country. I do not grudge the reward. In addition to the reward given by Wanda, another three hundred gold coins will be allocated to the rest of the craftsmen. As long as they are participants, they will have a reward. "


    "I thank you for your kindness."


    Hu Mo was very happy.


    Because Zhang Xiu attached great importance to craftsmen, so that the children of Mohist school were able to enter the Ministry of industry, to work openly and aboveboard, and to have today''s status and glory.


    He is even more grateful to Zhang Xiu.


    Hu Mo assured: "please rest assured, your majesty. I will urge the craftsmen of the Ministry of industry to make persistent efforts and strive to invent more things beneficial to the country and the people and the country."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ll wait and see!"


    After he had been pardoned for a while, he stopped staying and was ready to leave with Sima Yi. But when he and Sima Yi were ready to leave, they stopped, looked at Hu Mo and continued: "in the Daqin daily tomorrow, I will send someone to publish a special article to explain the cement issue, and also announce the contribution of Wan Dayou and his participants. You will be known by countless people. "


    "Thank you


    Hu Mo thanks again.


    Just this time thanks, is hands together, Yidi to the end.


    It is a great honor for all the people of the Ministry of industry that Zhang Xiu repeatedly rewards the Ministry of industry. In particular, if it is specially published in newspapers, it means that it is specially published in the world.


    It''s even more exciting.


    Once you become famous, you will be known all over the world.


    This is what everyone expects.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay any longer, so she left with Sima Yi. After Zhang Xiu left, the atmosphere in the work department was even higher, and all the craftsmen were excited because Zhang Xiu gave them too much respect.


    Wan Dayou also said thank you again and again, saying that he wanted to treat and thank everyone. He is now the first to become a Marquis of the country and the only one among the Mohist people. He wants to thank them all.


    Not to mention the reaction of the people in the work department, after Zhang Xiu returned to the palace, she discussed the road construction with Sima Yi. Along the way, Sima Yi had many considerations in her heart.


    Sima Yi said: "Your Majesty, after thinking about the road construction, I think it is not suitable to spread it all at once. The most appropriate way is to implement it in Chang''an and even the whole Sili area in advance. After the construction of the main road, it caused a great shock, and let countless people see the hope, and then promote it. In this way, the resistance will be much less. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Sima Yi''s arrangement was originally a mature strategy. One thing was directly spread out. Once she made a big step, it would be easy to have problems. The most appropriate strategy was to make steady progress step by step.Sima Yi said, "I went to arrange it."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    After leaving the Imperial City, Sima Yi went straight back to her office and began to plan for road construction. Today, Zhou Yixing is the leader of Daqin daily. He doesn''t have to worry about it. The land reform is also going on, and it doesn''t need Sima Yi to spend too much time. Sima Yi only needs to focus on the road construction.


    However, when it comes to road construction, he can''t do it alone. He needs more people to participate.


    After Sima Yi planned the big plan, she felt tired.


    For this reason, Sima Yi specially invited Du Ji, the capital Zhaoyin.


    When it comes to road construction in Chang''an and even the whole Sili area, it requires the cooperation of Du Ji. After Du Ji entered, Sima Yi came straight to the point and said something about cement.


    After hearing this, Du Ji was skeptical and said, "Mr. Sima, is this reliable? The cement you mentioned has never existed before. It''s incredible. "


    Sima Yi said: "this matter has been confirmed by your majesty. Even tomorrow''s Daqin daily will publish about cement. You will know, can this matter be falsified? In particular, his majesty has arranged to build roads in the whole Sili area. Under such a premise, can we cheat? "


    "That''s true!"


    After hearing this, Du Ji nodded: "to build roads, I agree. Because road construction can make transportation convenient. Originally, when I worked as Jing Zhaoyin, I built roads several times, but they were all dirt roads. According to you, this kind of concrete road is totally different. If it can be done, it will be extremely beneficial for local development and consolidation. "


    Sima Yi said: "that''s exactly the reason!"


    After a pause, Sima Yi said: "so I specially invited Mr. Du to discuss how to build roads and where to build roads. From Chang''an to the whole Sili area, it must be connected in all directions, and important checkpoints must have access roads. Mr. Du knows the Sili area like the back of his hand, so I would like to ask Mr. Du for advice. "


    Du Ji said: "I don''t dare to give you directions. Du should know everything and say everything."


    At that moment, Du Ji asked people to bring the map, and together with Sima Yi, gathered in front of the map, carefully studied the map of Sili area, and discussed the route of road construction.

 Chapter 1104

    In March, the weather is getting warmer and warmer. Even in Chang''an, which is in the north, the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, and everything is reviving. Everything is full of vitality.


    Zhang Xiu is now dealing with government affairs, but also a little leisure. Even though there are a lot of things, they are shared by the cabinet, so Zhang Xiu is happy to take advantage of the early spring and even take her family on a spring outing.


    When Zhang Xiu was idle, Sima Yi and Du Ji were busy.


    With the full support of the Ministry of industry, the Ministry of accounts and the Bank of Daqin, the main roads of Chang''an began to harden and all began to lay cement roads. Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer now, and the cement is easier to dry after laying than it is hard to dry in winter.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu was reviewing government affairs.


    When Zhang Xiu was busy, Wang Yue came in and bowed, "Your Majesty, Mr. Sima, please see me."


    "Xuan"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    After a while, Sima Yi entered. He bowed to Zhang Xiu and stood at the bottom.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhongda, you are too busy to see people now. What''s the important thing about coming to see me now? "


    Sima Yi said with a straight face: "to report back to your majesty, there is indeed an important matter that needs your Majesty''s presence."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Sima Yi replied, "we started to pave and harden roads in Chang''an. The main roads along the way are mainly the original clay roads. However, in some places, it can be changed. So for some roads, we occupied some land, and after making compensation, we got through the roads. But this time, I met a group of graves. This group of tombs belongs mainly to the Yang family of Hongnong, that is, to the old Dean Yang Biao. Now we need to move graves to make the road smooth. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    People in this era attach great importance to the graves of their ancestors.


    The body hair skin, suffers the parents, dare not injure. Similarly, ancestral graves are even more important. Not to mention the geomantic omen of ancestral graves, just a word of filial piety is enough to make countless people dare not move ancestral graves.


    Therefore, it is extremely troublesome to move graves.


    Zhang Xiu said: "when it comes to the ancestral tombs of the Yang family, do we have to move them? Isn''t it possible to take a detour? "


    "No way!"


    Sima Yi shook her head and said, "now the hardening of roads has been pushed to the vicinity of the tomb of Yang Jiazu. If we change the direction now, it will not only cost more materials and money, but also the road will not be as smooth as it used to be. The road from Chang''an to the counties and counties in the Sili area was decided after careful deliberation between Pei Chen and Du Ji. This can not be changed without authorization. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "did you go to see Yang Biao?"


    Sima Yi said, "see you!"


    Zhang xiudao: "what does Yang Biao say?"


    Sima Yi replied: "Mr. Yang said that it involves state affairs and the country. He himself agrees in principle. However, Yang Gong did not stand in his way. But there are countless people in the Yang family, and even many people in the branch of the Yang family. We have to persuade these people, but he will not. At most, he doesn''t make trouble. Pei Chen has arranged for people to go to Hongnong Yang''s house to lobby, but in the end, no one agrees, and they all bite to death, unwilling to move the grave. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu fell into silence.


    Moving graves, even if it is placed in later generations, is also a rather thorny matter. Although this does not involve the law, but only the private morality, in fact, it is still difficult to operate.


    It''s not an easy thing to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu said, "have you ever dealt with it yourself?"


    Sima Yi said: "in reply to your majesty, I went to Hongnong Yang''s house in person. But the problem is that the Yang family is not willing to cooperate from beginning to end. Yang''s attitude is very firm, would rather die than move the grave. If we want to pave the road directly from the site of the ancestral tomb, then the people of the Yang family will be killed at the site of the tomb. "


    After a pause, Sima Yi continued: "such a strong move, that I can''t stop it. Although the minister is eloquent, there is no room for maneuver in the Yang family. Even I don''t know what to do. The minister told Du Ji about it. After consulting with him, Du Ji was helpless. "


    Zhang Xiu sighed: "the family is the first in the world. It''s very normal for the Yang family not to move their graves. Zhong Da, I want to ask you something. If the road construction involves the ancestral Tomb of your Sima family, what do you do with Sima Yi? "


    Sima Yi frowned slightly.


    It''s hard to answer. If he says without thinking, the Sima family is willing to cooperate, it''s a bit perfunctory.


    It would be selfish to refuse.


    What''s the reason that you want others to move graves, but you don''t want to cooperate?


    Sima Yi took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, if it comes to the ancestral tombs of Sima family, in front of the state, I will persuade Sima family to agree to move the tombs."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I believe you!"


    Hoo!!


    Sima Yi breathed a sigh of relief.


    Under the current situation, he can only say so now. Although Sima Yi will definitely make a decision and agree if he does, it''s definitely not pleasant.Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned, but her heart was thinking about her own strategy.


    It''s not easy to deal with.


    The ancients paid the most attention to their ancestors. A person who discards his ancestors will surely be rejected. Therefore, if this issue is not handled properly, it will lead to turmoil far beyond the land reform.


    Land reform involves countless people, but in fact, it does not involve some family issues.


    When it comes to family issues, it''s complicated.


    Zhang Xiu takes a deep breath. According to his nature, it''s better to uproot the ancestral grave of the Yang family, because this time, if we don''t uproot the ancestral grave of the Yang family, we will encounter similar things the next time. With the ancestral grave of the Yang family as a precedent, it will be difficult to enforce the law in the future.


    The construction of roads connecting the four directions, involving the diversion, will inevitably encounter the graves of the people. If we can''t carry out the law, we can''t do anything well in the end.


    So Zhang Xiu hesitated.


    On the one hand, it was the stability of the imperial court; on the other hand, it was the construction of roads.


    Both of them should be taken into account by Zhang Xiu. After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu didn''t come up with a solution. She immediately arranged for people to inform Jia Xu, Xu Shu and other cabinet members to discuss the matter.


    One man''s power is short!


    There are a lot of people in the cabinet. With their wisdom, they may be able to come up with solutions.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s solution.


    After a short period of time, Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Li Ru and others entered together. After bowing to Zhang Xiu one by one, they took their seats. Everyone''s eyes were on Sima Yi first, because now Sima Yi is a busy man, more busy than many people in the cabinet. Finally, he looked at Zhang Xiu and waited for her instructions.


    Zhang Xiu directly talked about the problems encountered in road construction, and then said, "now it comes to the ancestral Tomb of the Yang family. How do you think this matter should be solved in order to deal with it satisfactorily?"

 Chapter 1105

    On hearing this, Xu Shu immediately frowned.


    When it comes to ancestral graves, this is not a small matter. In other words, this is a series of problems. If we don''t solve the problem of Yang''s ancestral grave at present, there will be the problem of Li''s, Zhou''s, Duan''s and many other families'' ancestral grave in the future. But the problem is that once it is dealt with, a series of problems are involved.


    What''s more, no one dares to act rashly when it comes to his ancestors.


    Xu Shu used his brain, but in a short time, he didn''t come up with a solution. Others, such as Li Ru and Jia Xu, remained silent for the time being, and no one took the lead in breaking the deadlock.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "why, is there no way to crack it?"


    Jia Xu suddenly said: "Your Majesty, this matter does not involve legal principles, but involves human feelings. As the saying goes, legal principle is nothing more than human feelings. Even if we want to consider legal principle, we have to consider human feelings. In my opinion, it is not appropriate to make a big fight in this matter. Otherwise, when the news spreads, it is bound to cause unrest. Even if a Yang family is solved, there will be more problems in the next step. The old minister thought that the road construction could be carried out in a different way. Even if it''s huge, it''s the only way to do it. "


    In the past, Jia Xu has always been resourceful. But now, he has no solution.


    We can only hope that Zhang Xiu will change her way.


    Sima Yi frowned and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Jia, if the road is changed now, it will cost a lot. At that time, the structure of the whole road and its future direction will be affected. It''s not easy to change course. "


    As a road planner, Sima Yi knew that it was not easy.


    If we change the route, all the plans will be out of order.


    This is not allowed.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this moment, the sound of footsteps sounded from the door of the main hall.


    But Wang is more and more.


    Wang Yue has been doing things with Zhang Xiu, responsible for all the information. After he entered, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, as for the mausoleum, there is news coming back. Please make a decision."


    With that, Wang Yue handed over a letter.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and quickly scanned it. He read it down at a glance. After reading it, he said in front of the public: "before, it was because the ancestral grave of the Yang family blocked the road, so we had to move the grave. Today, my mausoleum also blocks the road to be built. "


    Sima Yi said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I have considered this matter. Although it will pass through His Majesty''s mausoleum, in fact, it will only pass by the side. In fact, it has little influence. "


    "That''s not right!"


    Jia Xu immediately said: "Zhongda, your Majesty''s mausoleum is related to the foundation of the great Qin Dynasty and the foundation of the great Qin Dynasty. Once his Majesty''s mausoleum is moved, it will shake the foundation of the country, which is not conducive to the development of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Sima Yi stopped talking.


    When it comes to the ancestral tombs of the Yang family, Sima Yi can propose to tear down the ancestral tombs of the Yang family and give some compensation.


    Now, it is about Zhang Xiu.


    When it comes to the emperor, if he expresses his position casually, once he is targeted, life will be difficult. What''s more, Sima Yi is determined to dominate the cabinet, so he should not say anything. He never talks nonsense.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she said in a deep voice: "now that the matter has come to this point, it must be impossible to change the way. What''s more, since we are going to extend the road to the whole of the Qin Dynasty, I will set an example and set an example. "


    People were shocked by the words.


    Zhang Xiu is going to give a demonstration.


    This means that Zhang Xiu will change the mausoleum, not in accordance with the previous plan.


    Jia Xulian said: "Your Majesty can''t do it!"


    The rest of the people also began to persuade. For the courtiers, they still thought that the emperor''s mausoleum was related to geomantic omen and national destiny, so they didn''t want to change the mausoleum one by one.


    Zhang Xiu listened to people''s suggestions and said: "persuasion is not necessary. I have made up my mind and don''t care. What''s more, the national fate of a country depends on Fengshui mausoleum, which is so simple. The long-term stability of a country lies in the hard work of its administrators. Without the painstaking efforts of the ruling party, the country will not last long. "


    "Your majesty


    Sima Yi spoke respectfully.


    For Sima Yi, when Zhang Xiu was the first to set an example, after the news came out, it was not difficult to lead away the graves when building roads and meeting tombs everywhere.


    After all, the emperor''s mausoleum has changed, let alone ordinary people.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Zhong Da, after the change of my mausoleum, it involves the ancestral tombs of the rest of the Yang family, or the ancestral tombs of the rest of the people in the future. Please ask Zuo Ci to come forward and ask them to delimit the ancestral tombs and select the graveyards for others. With Zuo Ci, everything will be much easier. "


    "Here it is


    Sima Yi responded again.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "Yang ancestral grave matter, so settled."


    "Here it is


    All the people spoke in unison.


    The big stone in Sima Yi''s heart has finally landed. When he returned to his residence, he did not immediately announce the change of the mausoleum near Shanglinyuan. Instead, he specially called Zhou Yixing to talk about road construction and the fact that the mausoleum blocked the road. Now he wanted to change the mausoleum to give way to the road.When he had finished, Sima Yi said, "Zhou Yixing, tomorrow''s Daqin daily, this will be printed on the front page. This news must be widely spread. "


    "Here it is


    Zhou Yixing immediately responded.


    Zhou Yixing had already made preparations for the contents of the original Daqin daily tomorrow, which had been set before. But now, when it comes to road construction, Zhou Yixing has to remove the content from the front page and replace it with the content mentioned by Sima Yi.


    Zhou Yixing arranged for Daqin daily to publicize, and Sima Yi invited Wang Yue to mobilize the royal guards to spread news in the whole Sili area.


    The spread of grapevine news will also let people know, but many people will not take it seriously.


    The news from Daqin daily is true.


    Therefore, Sima Yi is responsible for the propaganda of Daqin daily on the one hand, and the dissemination of news by the royal guards on the other. If the news of the two aspects is gathered together, it can be convincing.


    That afternoon, the news had spread.


    The next day, after Daqin daily published the sale, the news came out, and everyone knew that in order to build the road, Zhang Xiu had really changed the mausoleum instead of changing the road.


    As soon as the news came out, there were waves.


    The news also spread to Chang''an Academy.


    When Yang Biao got the news, his eyebrows also wrinkled. When it comes to the tombs of the Yang family, he is unwilling to move. After all, the tombs of the Yang family are almost all buried in the same area, forming a group of tombs of the Yang family. Now he wants to move away in a unified way, and his heart is a bit of a barrier.


    But the problem is that Zhang Xiu has set an example, even the emperor''s mausoleum has been changed, let alone the following people?


    Yang Biao knows that it can''t be changed.


    Of course, before that, he did not take charge of it. He adhered to the policy of non-interference and non obstruction, and let the people of the Yang family come forward. But now, Yang Biao is hard to be alone and knows that he has to give in.


    "Newspaper!"


    There was a knock on the door outside the study.


    Yang Biao''s relatives said: "president, Mr. Sima Yi, please see me."

 Chapter 1106

    As soon as Yang Biao heard this, he knew that Sima Yi''s intention must be for the sake of the relocation of Yang''s ancestral tomb. Yang Biao nodded and turned to inform him. After a while, Sima Yi went into the room, bowed and said, "I''ve seen Mr. Yang!"


    Yang Biao nodded his head and said, "is Zhong Dalai for business or for private?"


    "Both the public and the private!"


    Sima Yi replied with a smile: "my father is also in the Academy. Now I come to the academy to visit my father and Yang Gong. On the other hand, it''s about business. "


    Yang Biao said: "I and your father are not bad. Now you are in charge of road construction. Your business is the problem of my ancestral Tomb of the Yang family. "


    "Yes


    Sima Yi nodded.


    Yang Biao said: "when it comes to the relocation of ancestral graves, I agree. I''m going to write a letter. Take it with you. I''m from the Yang family. I''m willing to move graves. "


    There''s no way not to move graves.


    Even Zhang Xiu''s own mausoleum blocked the road, Zhang Xiu has changed the mausoleum, let alone the Yang family.


    Sima Yi was relieved. He was worried that Yang Biao was still careless. Now with Yang Biao''s personal letter, it is much easier to solve the problem of Yang''s ancestral grave.


    Sima Yi said, "please don''t worry, Lord Yang. I specially asked Zuo Ci to accompany me and let him be responsible for the removal of the grave. Besides, I will ask Zuo Ci to be responsible for the site selection of the new tomb. "


    "That''s the best."


    When Yang Biao heard this, he had a smile on his face.


    Zuo CI is a famous alchemist who is good at astronomy and geography. Now Zuo Ci''s choice of graveyard will surely convince the whole family and make the family''s resistance weaker.


    After Sima Yi settled the matter of Yang''s ancestral tomb, the conversation changed. She talked about all the things in the academy and asked about Sima Fang.


    After staying for two quarters of an hour, Sima Yi left Yang Biao''s office and went to see Sima Fang. Then she left Chang''an in a hurry and went to Hongnong county.


    He has to deal with Hongnong county.


    With Yang Biao''s letter, Sima Yi is confident that she can handle things well. When Sima Yi arrived in Hongnong County, he met a group of people who were guarding the ancestral hall of the Yang family. He took out Yang Biao''s letter and even talked about the diversion of Zhang Xiu''s mausoleum.


    The Yang family, even if some people don''t like it.


    But, but also helpless.


    Yang Biao agreed, and Zhang Xiu even changed her mausoleum. If they still want to resist, they will be the enemy of Zhang Xiu, so the Yang family finally choose to agree.


    Finally, Sima Yi made clear Zuo Ci and moved his tomb.


    Everything went on very quickly.


    When the tomb of the Yang family moved away, the road continued to be paved and quickly went to the Sili area. With the extension of the road, more and more materials are sent to the past, and the road is laying rapidly.


    A section of the road is open, which has greatly promoted the local economy along the way.


    Because travel is more convenient.


    When there was no road construction, once it rained, the road was muddy. But now, even if it rains, it doesn''t affect driving, and it can even move easily, which is the convenience of road construction.


    In particular, with the goods available, they can be sent out for sale as soon as possible without delay, which promotes local development.


    This situation was expected.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she was also pleased with the smooth road construction and the local development. I believe that with the passage of time, the whole Sili area will become more prosperous because of the roads built. Because after the road is built, it is easier to sell many goods and materials. It is not as self-sufficient as before.


    Zhang Xiu lets Sima Yi arrange the road construction, while he teases the children in the back palace.


    Besides Zhang Xiu, even Zhang Cheng is here.


    All along, Zhang Cheng is a person, no brothers and sisters, now suddenly more Zhang Ke and Zhang Zhi two younger brothers and sisters, Zhang Cheng when the brother''s heart is also flooding, incomparable joy.


    From time to time, he went back to the palace to have a look at his younger brother and sister.


    Although the royal family is merciless.


    But now, the identity of Zhang Cheng''s successor has been determined, and the two sides are quite different in age, so there is no intrigue between them. Especially when Zhang Ke is just a baby, there is no conflict between the two sides, so it is very harmonious.


    When Zhang Xiu and Zhang Cheng tease their children, Cao Jie, Da Qiao and others are on the side.


    Originally, Cao gave birth to a baby girl, with some loss in her heart.


    In this era, men are more important than women.


    Both men and women who are mothers want to give birth to sons, because sons mean inheritance. So Cao gave birth to a girl, and he was very sorry. If only I could have a son. Even though his son can''t inherit Daqin because he was born in Cao family, his son is better.


    After Cao Jie gave birth to his daughter, he found that he was wrong.


    Zhang Xiu actually likes Zhang Zhi more.If we say that we like it in a short time, it may be that Zhang Xiu appeases Cao Jie, but Zhang Xiu''s natural indulgence can''t hide Cao Jie''s eyes.


    Because of Zhang Xiu''s doting, Cao Jie''s bad habits are gone, and there is no burden in her heart.


    A family is happy together.


    It''s just that Zhen MI, Xiao Qiao and other girls are envious in their eyes, because they''ve been married to Zhang Xiu for some time, but they haven''t been pregnant yet. Zhang Xiu, in particular, spent most of her time in Chang''an, staying in the harem, but she didn''t get pregnant, which made her regret.


    At this time, Cao Jie suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I''ve recovered and I can''t spare any time. Although restaurants and other industries are operated by people, they are not enough. Now, I have found another business opportunity. I hope your majesty will allow us to manage it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as it is not against the law and discipline, your arrangement is."


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    Cao Jie quickly thanks and salutes.


    Huang Yueying, Zhen MI and other women also expressed their thanks one after another.


    Cao Jie owns shares in all the industries he manages. It can be said that Cao Jie is the God of wealth in the harem. Now Cao Jie got Zhang Xiu''s permission, so everyone quickly thanks Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s hear. What business are you going to do?"


    "In the carriage business!"


    In Cao Jie''s dark and shining eyes, there was a bright light, and he said: "from Chang''an to Hongnong County, and even to Luoyang, the road has been completed. In addition, the road leading to the other counties is also stepping up


    "We''ve explored the condition of the road. It''s so smooth."


    "It''s incredible."


    "It''s just such a smooth road. The carriage runs fast on it, and it''s not so bumpy. What''s more, the carriage can also shock absorption, try to see the bumps of the carriage


    Cao Jie continued: "our plan is to set up a team to run from Chang''an to Luoyang or even further. A real big family, with a carriage to ride. In fact, most people travel on foot. They want to be a coach. They don''t have the conditions. "


    "But our carriage is specially designed by sister Huang. It can accommodate more people and increase the shock absorption effect. At that time, it will be able to accommodate a lot of people. "


    "With more people, it''s cheaper to take a car."


    "So we expect that such a cheap carriage can save time, manpower and material resources. We expect that the people will definitely support it, and this is definitely a business opportunity."


    Cao Jie zhengse way: "please your majesty permission."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened when she heard that.


    He looked at Cao Jie with admiration. He was really the person who was the best at business around him. His vision was really sharp. He saw the business opportunities brought by the road construction at a glance. Moreover, Cao Jie''s proposal is indeed an opportunity to make money.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can arrange it. I''ll let it go."


    "Thank you


    Cao Jie, Huang Yueying and other women once again expressed their thanks.


    They were all convinced by Cao Jie, and they were looking forward to finding a new source of wealth. They have been in the harem all the time, and they are not short of money. But the feeling of making money by themselves and finding a way to make money by themselves is totally different.


    With Zhang Xiu''s consent, Cao Jie arranged to go down on that day and let the people below begin to prepare.

 Chapter 1107

    Cao Jie, who has been in business for many years, has accumulated rich experience and sufficient contacts, and knows better how to operate. So she invested in carriages. In just three days, she had already made a big splash and started to have a formal operation of carriages.


    When the original propaganda came out, many people were not optimistic about the carriage carrying people.


    After all, you have to pay.


    Anyway, there are two legs. As long as you are willing to walk, you can walk back. Why pay?


    This is the attitude of many people.


    But the reality is that when the carriage is officially running, a brand-new carriage appears. When it officially starts to carry people, it will be the first one to ride, especially when it doesn''t pay much. So from the very beginning, it has become popular in a short time.


    You don''t take a car. Is that a good boast?


    You don''t take a bus. Do you have any talk?


    There are not a few people with this mentality. Many people have opened their eyes after trying. Because you don''t have to pay much, but you can save a lot of time. You don''t have to walk slowly. Why not? Even if the charge is small, but a carriage back and forth more times, so can earn a lot of money.


    The popularity of the carriage caused some people''s envy, but after a little inquiry, they knew that Cao Jie and others were behind it. Since then, no one has dared to stretch out his hand or make up his mind.


    This is the benefit of identity.


    The operation of a carriage, even the city also began to appear a simple rickshaw. The innovation of the carriage makes everything in Chang''an change imperceptibly.


    It is no longer as quiet as before, but more active.


    Chang''an is becoming more and more prosperous.


    In particular, after the emergence of the carriage, the carriage specialized in pulling goods also came into being. A series of derivative things have been constantly breeding out, and there are more and more.


    The prosperity of Chang''an gradually led the whole Sili area.


    Even with the construction of roads, from Chang''an, the political center, gradually extended to the important town of the whole Daqin, large-scale construction was also started among various states, and the main roads were gradually built.


    More and more people are seeing changes in the place.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see the success of this.


    Time passes day by day, the rings turn, five years, fleeting.


    In the past five years, everything in Daqin has developed vigorously, especially Jiaozhou development in the south. In other words, it''s for later generations to replant trees and return the soil to forests.


    But in this era, there are too many primeval forests, just like this. Jiaozhou and other places are so hot that miasma is easy to breed. A piece of forest was cut down, a large area of land was reclaimed, all under the control of the state.


    Today''s Daqin, there are very few people who are hard to eat.


    After all, land acquisition is under control.


    The common people have cultivated land.


    As long as the people do not encounter natural and man-made disasters, they can still live.


    The most important thing is that over the years, all over the country are building fortifications, building roads, digging ditches, etc., giving countless people the opportunity to work, so that people can make money to support their families through working.


    In the whole Qin Dynasty, whether it is the craftsmen ''workshop headed by Mohism, or the central government, or the local military and government, everything has been thriving, and the development trend is very good.


    Zhang Xiu was pleased with the development of Daqin.


    The world has been in chaos for a long time. Now that the world is unified, people should enjoy some good days.


    This year, after spring.


    All over the country are already busy with farming, but Zhang Xiu is quite idle in the palace. Five years is enough to make Zhang Cheng more mature. A few years ago, Zhang Cheng was a young adult. Although he was young, he was quite intelligent. These years, Zhang Cheng has been involved in government affairs, so for government affairs, Zhang Xiu is also bold to let go, to Zhang Cheng to deal with.


    The power should be the experience of Zhang Cheng.


    Moreover, the cabinet, including Xu Shu, Jia Xu, Sima Yi and others, also operated well.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu often creates people in the harem, so that he has children everywhere, and the women around him have their own children, or sons or daughters. The whole harem is full of excitement.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu still stayed in the harem.


    Now it''s spring in March, and the weather is getting warmer and warmer. Zhang Xiu is lying on a reclining chair, basking in the spring sun, and her whole body is crisp and extremely comfortable. Not far away from Zhang Xiu, Huang Yueying, Cao Jie and other women are also playing mahjong for entertainment, which is very leisurely.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Footsteps, from the yard.


    But a servant entered and came to Zhang Xiu''s side. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Royal Guard, please see me."


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a command. He got up bored and left the back palace. He came to Xuanshi hall and saw Wang Yue. Today''s Wang Yue is also getting older, and his back is slightly bent. But his spirit was excellent, and he didn''t seem so decadent.He is still in charge of the royal guards.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang Yue said with a straight face: "report back to your majesty, today the royal guards have received the news from Liangzhou. At the border of Liangzhou, especially in Zhangye, Jiuquan, Dunhuang and other places, there are a large number of Hu sentries who are inquiring about us. At present, our people are playing hide and seek with each other, trying to find out each other''s whereabouts as soon as possible. "


    Zhang xiudao: "but the Hu people in the western regions are small country spies?"


    There are shuci, Tangyue and so on. So far, there has been no movement. These small countries in the western regions have never been enemies to us. But these sentinels are not from these countries. Just for the time being, we haven''t found out the situation of the other party. But this situation is worthy of attention. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and there was a look of thinking in her eyes.


    In fact, the strength of the countries in the western regions is not strong, but further away, it is the Kushan empire known to Zhang Xiu. It is a powerful country, stronger than many small countries.


    That''s what needs to be considered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you mobilize the royal guards and pay close attention to the situation. In addition, he immediately sent orders to Liangzhou Gaolan to mobilize soldiers and pay close attention to the situation. "


    Gao Lan is still the commander of Liangzhou military region.


    In fact, a few years ago, Zhang Xiu made an adjustment to the commander-in-chief of each military region and had a rotation. However, Gaolan is familiar with Liangzhou, and Liangzhou''s geographical location is important, so Gaolan has been working in Liangzhou.


    Wang Yue said: "I understand your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Wang Yue stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu sits alone in the hall, with a solemn look on her face, but her eyes are full of fighting spirit. In recent years, Zhang Xiu hardly attacked any place, but mainly concentrated on the development of production. Now the western regions are likely to invade, so Zhang Xiu is needed here. Zhang Xiu, who has not sent troops for many years, is also looking forward to war.

 Chapter 1108

    Zhang Xiu sat alone in the hall of Xuanshi, thinking about the various issues of going to war. After pondering for a long time, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for the prince Zhang Cheng, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and other cabinet members to discuss the matter.


    Now Zhang Cheng is 16 years old.


    Sixteen year old children, in this era, although not crown, but in fact, is already weak crown age. Especially born in the royal family, since it is early dawn. In addition, Zhang Cheng had been in the Academy in his early years. Even though he was a weak champion, in fact, his mind was already mature. At the age of 16, he was 173 cm, tall and dignified.


    Zhang Cheng was the first to arrive. When he entered, he saw Zhang Xiu and bowed himself to say, "my son has seen my father!"


    In recent years, Zhang Cheng called her father Zhang Xiu.


    Don''t call your father emperor.


    That is, less alienation, more closeness and more warmth of family members.


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Zhang chengyiyan took a seat. A moment later, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and other cabinet officials arrived one after another, saluted Zhang Xiu and took a seat in the main hall.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "just now, I got the news that a large number of Hu spies from the western regions have appeared in Dunhuang, Jiuquan and Zhangye counties of Liangzhou. They are searching for information about the Qin Dynasty. I think it''s a further invasion of the western regions by Qin. Therefore, I call you all here to discuss this matter. "


    Xu Shu said: "Your Majesty, after all, this matter has not happened. The minister suggested that the order should be sent to Liangzhou military region immediately to order Gaolan to dispatch troops to guard. Once there is a real war, we can rush for help. If there is no war, there will be no impact. "


    Jia Xu sat down, but his eyes narrowed.


    He didn''t think Zhang Xiu would think so.


    If it''s just Xu Shu''s suggestion, all problems will be solved with one will. But the problem is, Zhang Xiu called all the people together, certainly not so planned.


    Do you want to drive in person?


    Jia Xu raised his eyebrows. Thinking of this possibility, he said, "Your Majesty, are you planning to lead the army?"


    "He who knows me is Wen he!"


    Zhang Xiu stroked the short beard under her jaw and gave a smile. Today''s Zhang Xiu is already bearded. After all, he is also in his early 30s. He stands in his 30s and has beards under his jaw. He looks more dignified.


    Now, Zhang Xiu wants to send troops.


    Always stay in the palace, it seems boring, people are almost moldy.


    In the previous few years, because most of the reforms were involved, on the one hand, land reform, on the other hand, road construction, etc., for Daqin, development was the first priority, so Zhang Xiu never sent troops, and always devoted herself to development.


    In the past five years, the foundation of Daqin was stable, and the people were well-off. Under this premise, Zhang Xiu has no worries, does not worry about the problems of Daqin, is not willing to stay, thinking of sending troops.


    Daqin should not be limited to its original territory.


    Daqin, we must expand.


    When people heard Zhang Xiu''s words, they were surprised, but in fact, they were not so surprised. Because all along, Zhang Xiu led the soldiers to fight. It was not easy to stay in the palace for several years.


    After thinking about it, Xu Shu said: "Your Majesty means that no matter whether the western countries send troops or not, they are ready to attack the western countries. Do you want to open up territory?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s the meaning."


    He decided to March West.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another servant came in and came to Xu Shu in a hurry. He quickly said something to Xu Shu. After hearing this, Xu Shu looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, there''s news from Youzhou that the people of Wuhuan are going south to the border. More than ten villages with hundreds of surnames on the border of Youzhou were all abducted by the Wuhuan people. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Zhang Xiu was furious when she heard that.


    He didn''t go to the Wuhuan people for trouble. Unexpectedly, the Wuhuan people took the lead in sending troops.


    For Wu Huan, Zhang Xiu didn''t pay attention.


    Moreover, there are troops in Youzhou, so Zhang Xiu is not worried. However, Zhang Xiu didn''t expect that the people of Wuhuan dared to plunder the border of the state of Qin.


    Xu Shu, as the chief assistant of the cabinet, said: "Your Majesty, Daqin can''t be provoked. In my opinion, it is not appropriate for Liangzhou to move troops at present. For the time being, let''s solve Wuhuan first. It is the so-called reciprocity that comes but never goes. Since the Wuhuan people have killed us, we, Daqin, should fight back. Your majesty led the army when he went to the western regions, and also led the army when he went to Youzhou in the north. Therefore, my minister suggested that your majesty should drive to Wuhuan. "


    Xu Shu followed Zhang Xiu for more than ten years, and he knew Zhang Xiu''s character clearly.


    Zhang Xiu is sure to send troops.


    Simply, let Zhang Xiu go to Youzhou to attack Wuhuan. In this way, he will not run to the desolate western regions.


    Jia Xu is also a human spirit. As soon as he heard Xu Shu''s suggestion, he understood Xu Shu''s mind and immediately agreed: "Your Majesty, there are serious and serious problems. Please put down Liangzhou''s business for a while and do your best to deal with Wuhuan."After a pause, Jia Xu induced: "as the saying goes, if it''s not my family, its heart will be different. Now Wuhuan invades the border to the south, which must be dealt with. If Daqin doesn''t deal with it, then the people of Wuhuan must think that everyone in Daqin can be deceived, and Daqin is not difficult to deal with. "


    "Your Majesty, I agree with you!"


    Li Ru agreed.


    "Your Majesty, I agree with you!"


    "Your Majesty, I agree with you!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the cabinet members agreed. They are all very smart people. They can understand the situation one by one and hope that Zhang Xiu will go north to Youzhou. After all, even if there is a war in Youzhou, it is much easier and not so difficult.


    As for Wuhuan, it''s time to put it out.


    Zhang Cheng has been sitting at the bottom, and his heart is also thinking. What he thought was not the difficulty of conquering the western regions, but the fact that the Wuhuan people had invaded the border and had to respond immediately.


    It can''t be delayed.


    Therefore, Zhang Cheng also said: "father, son also agreed to the expedition of the western regions. In the Han Dynasty, there was a strong saying that those who offended me would be punished even though they were far away. It''s the same with Daqin. As long as those who have violated Daqin, they must be killed. Otherwise, people will think that everyone in Daqin can be deceived. "


    As a prince, it is not easy to express his position under normal circumstances. However, when it comes to the attack on the border of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Cheng gives his attitude directly. He is not a timid man and suggests the first World War.


    Zhang Xiu listens to people''s words, is also nod.


    Even if we want to invade the western regions, we should at least stabilize the domestic situation, solve the problems around Daqin, and then carry out the western expedition.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "since the cabinet and even the prince have reached a consensus. Then I will not say more. In addition to the Youzhou army, it is necessary to mobilize the rest of the troops to fight against Wuhuan


    Xu Shu said: "Your Majesty, in addition to the Youzhou army, I think it is necessary to dispatch troops to fight. He suggested that the troops of Qingzhou military region should be sent northward to take part in the war against Wuhuan. In addition, we should dispatch the latest weapons and artillery to fight. "


    Speaking of artillery, Zhang Xiu knew it.


    Today''s artillery, of course, is not the artillery of later generations, but when Zuo Ci''s disciples made pills, they burst the furnace. Things reported to Zhang Xiu in front of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu eventually transferred Mohist, and then developed, so there was gunpowder.


    With gunpowder, we began to make guns.


    But today''s artillery is still relatively primitive. It''s only made, then ignited and blasted. It can''t make use of the barrel to open the gun. After all, the steel-making technology and today''s technical level are still not up to the standard.


    Even so, it is a weapon of mass destruction.


    It''s enough to have the original version of the gun!

 Chapter 1109

    Zhang Xiu also agreed with Xu Shu. Now that there are guns made of gunpowder, they should be used. Although there is no gun barrel, it is a great progress to be able to use the catapult to launch. In many cases, it is enough to play a decisive role. At the end of the discussion, Zhang Xiu said, "during the imperial expedition, the crown prince will be in charge of all the affairs of the Qin Dynasty."


    "My son, obey the order!"


    Zhang Cheng stood up and bowed down.


    After Zhang Chengying came down, Zhang Xiu said, "in this battle, Pang Tong was sent with him, and the rest of the people were still in Chang''an."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    With the public''s reply, the issue of sending troops should be dealt with.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand for everyone to prepare. When it comes to war, it is inevitable to consume a lot of money and food. These materials need to be prepared in advance.


    Zhang Xiu went back to the harem.


    If you want to leave Chang''an, you have to say hello to all the women in the harem.


    After spending half a day in the palace, Zhang Xiu left the Imperial City, took Wang Yue, Sha Moke, Pang Tong and a group of imperial guards, and left Chang''an for the north.


    This time Zhang Xiu went north, she was going to Youzhou.


    Arrive at Youzhou first, and then consider going to war.


    Because all the roads along this road have been paved with concrete, so the journey northward is smooth. In mid April, we arrived at Jicheng, Youzhou. Zhang Xiu did not go to the governor''s office, but went straight to the camp where the fierce tiger army was.


    Ganning, as the commander of the fierce tiger army and the commander of the Youzhou army, went to the barracks to meet him personally. After several years in Youzhou, Gan Ning was also quite relaxed. Now the war is very exciting.


    See Zhang Xiu, Gan Ning boxing salute, then lead Zhang Xiu into.


    In the Chinese Army''s big account, the host and the guest are seated.


    Gan Ning said: "Your Majesty, all the sons of our liehu army are ready to send troops at any time. According to our information, the flying bear army led by Huang Zhong is on the way. It''s expected to arrive in half a month. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "as soon as Huang Zhong''s army arrives, we will send troops immediately."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "before that, I have already sent an order to you, so that you are ready to fight with Wuhuan. During this period, did you inquire into Wu Huan''s intelligence? "


    Gan Ning said, "please rest assured that everything is ready. Our liehu spies have found out where Wuhuan''s royal court is. In particular, the topography of Liucheng in the north, as well as the specific situation, have been fully understood. Now, just wait for the first World War! "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was full of praise.


    As the saying goes, if the troops and horses don''t move, the food and grass will go first, but the same principle is that if the troops and horses don''t move, the intelligence will go first. Only when we have a clear understanding of the enemy''s information and the situation of the other side, can we win steadily.


    This is fundamental.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a soldier entered.


    The soldier went straight to Ganning and said something in a low voice. After these words, Gan Ning''s face changed slightly. He waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, then looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, this Wuhuan man is really brave. Wudun, the leader of Wuhuan, sent envoys to meet his ministers outside the barracks. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and showed an unexpected look.


    He sent envoys.


    You know, when Tatton led the Wuhuan people to invade the border, now he is sending envoys again, which is tantamount to sending them home to fight.


    It''s a little weird.


    Ganning said, "Your Majesty, did you expel this man?"


    "Call him in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a direct order.


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, the soldiers went to inform immediately. Soon, a man in animal skin, with bird feathers on his head and teeth on his neck entered.


    After he entered, he held up his head and looked around. His eyes fell on Zhang Xiu and said, "are you Ganning?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    He smiles, the other party didn''t expect him to arrive.


    After all, the whereabouts of Zhang Xiu''s journey to Youzhou were hidden. There was no great publicity, so the news has not come out. The envoys sent by Dayton had a preconceived idea that Zhang Xiu was Gan Ning.


    Ambassador Tatton raised his head and hurled his voice to the ground: "my name is Su Nan Lou. I''m the imperial envoy of Da Dan Yu Tatton. Now, on the order of Da Danyu, I''ve come to call you down. "


    Zhang Xiu disdains a way: "depend on you Wu Huan person, want to recruit to surrender me Gan Ning?"


    Su Nanlou replied: "Gan Ning, you are the general of Daqin in Youzhou. But in fact, you are in the border of Youzhou, there has been our army hoarding. Once our army attacks, you will be defeated. So if you know the current affairs, you will honestly hand over the military power, and then lead the army to my Wuhuan. "


    After a pause, Su Nan Lou continued: "at that time, you will still be the commander-in-chief of Youzhou, and you will continue to be prosperous. But if you refuse, you can''t resist our army going south. At that time, not only will you die, but also the thousands of people under your rule will be unable to bear it. In the end, you lose and dieZhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    How arrogant you are.


    I think I can take the whole Youzhou.


    Su Nan Lou continued: "Gan Ning, what about your smile? Even if you laugh, it can only cover up your inner emptiness. Under the thousands of iron feet of Wuhuan, you will be defeated in the end. Now, you''d better surrender your wisdom. "


    "Obviously not!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said, "this time I''m going to invade Daqin, I''ll mobilize my troops to wipe out Wuhuan. The Huns and I were enemies, and they were finally exterminated by me. Now you Wuhuan, want to invade, then, I will let Wuhuan never come back. No matter who you are, you are the result of being killed. "


    "You, you, you are not Ganning?"


    As soon as Su Nan Lou heard Zhang Xiu''s self declaration, she immediately reacted, and her face was even more shocked.


    I, this is the name of the emperor.


    Is the person in front of you


    Su Nan Lou immediately understood and said, "you are Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty."


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Su Nan stepped back two steps, and a bad feeling arose in his heart. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu had already arrived in Youzhou, which means that Zhang Xiu must be a national soldier to attack Wuhuan.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    At the command, soldiers entered the camp.


    Zhang Xiu said, "drag Su Nan Lou down to me and cut off his two arms. Then, throw him out of the barracks. "


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to be ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    After hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Su Nanlou was in a panic and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, the two armies don''t kill envoys in battle. I''m the envoy of Wuhuan people, representing Wuhuan. You can''t do this to me


    "Drag it down!"


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeves are swept.


    The reason why he is like this is that he wants to tell us that Zhang Xiu is here. Since he dares to send troops to attack the border, he must be ready to be killed.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s declaration of war.


    Daqin, not afraid of wind and rain!


    Daqin, dare to fight!

 Chapter 1110

    Su Nanlou wails and screams, even still shouting, in order to get rid of the danger of being dragged out. However, even though he is quite brave, no matter how strong he is, he can''t help under the drag of the soldiers.


    A moment later, Su Nan Lou was dragged out of the camp, followed by a shrill scream. After the soldiers cut off Su Nan Lou''s arm, they simply bandaged it and threw it out of the barracks. Fortunately, Su Nan Lou went south with his own guards. One of them picked up Su Nan Lou, whose arms had been cut off, and turned over to leave.


    The whole party went north at full speed.


    Within seven days, sunanlou had returned to Liucheng.


    Liucheng, located in Liaoxi county.


    This is the headquarters of Wuhuan and the seat of the royal court.


    All the forces of Wuhuan gathered around Liucheng. When Su Nanlou returned to Liucheng, he was relieved that he finally came back. In these six or seven days, his wound has recovered a lot, at least not as painful as before. However, at least the body''s movement range is a little larger, is still painful.


    When Su Nan Lou returned to the city, he went straight to his residence.


    When he entered the mansion, he saw Dayton in the hall.


    Today''s Dayton is enjoying singing and dancing. The dancers were graceful, young and beautiful women. These women were brought back by Tatton''s soldiers, who were specially for Tatton to play.


    But when he saw Su Nan Lou, his brow went up. There was anger in his sharp sword eyebrow.


    Su Nan Lou''s arms are gone.


    It''s obviously a south bound injury.


    With a wave of his big hand, the dancing women left quickly.


    In the hall, suddenly quiet.


    "Su Nan Lou, your arms are bare. What''s the matter?" he said in a deep voice


    Plop!


    Su Nanlou pushed the golden mountain down to the jade pillar and knelt down on the ground. He looked pitiful and said in a loud voice: "Da Chanyu, you have to make decisions for villains!"


    "Say, what''s going on."


    He spoke with a cold face and a solemn expression.


    If he could become Wu Huan''s Da Dan Yu, he had considerable dignity and strength. Especially others have been in charge of Wuhuan for many years. Originally, Tatton sent Su Nan Lou south to meet Gan Ning in Youzhou to show his prestige and surrender Gan Ning. But he didn''t expect that Su Nan Lou came back without arms, which made Tatton very angry.


    Su Nan Lou replied: "Da Danyu, villain went south to Youzhou, met Ganning, and even saw Zhang Xiu of Daqin."


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    "Is it Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty?" he asked


    "Yes


    Su Nanlou was busy answering.


    After a pause, Su Nanlou continued: "Da Danyu, Zhang Xiu said that we Wuhuan people went south to invade the border of Youzhou. He wanted to retaliate and even attack Wuhuan. Therefore, he directly let people cut off the two arms of the villain. Da Danyu, Zhang Xiu is too rampant. Please be the master of villains. "


    "Damn it!" he snorted


    He was angry with Zhang Xiu.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu, as the emperor of a country and the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, is also so unruly. You should know that the two armies did not cut envoys when they were at war. Su Nanlou went as Wu Huan''s envoy, but Zhang Xiu cut off Su Nanlou''s two arms. It was too overbearing and did not pay attention to rules.


    Su Nan Lou continued: "Da Dan Yu, our strength is not afraid of Zhang Xiu. Especially in Liucheng, Wuhuan''s troops gathered. Even if it''s Zhang xiulai, it''s also looking for death. "


    "Ben Dan Yu is clear," he said


    After a pause, he said, "are you sure that Zhang Xiu really wants to send troops?"


    "Sure!"


    Su Nanlou answered firmly: "Zhang Xiu unified the whole of the Qin Dynasty, and her authority is unparalleled. Our army of Wuhuan has invaded the border of Youzhou. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t respond, I''m afraid the whole Qin Dynasty will be in turmoil. This time, Zhang Xiu will do it. "


    Patton nodded, thinking on his face.


    So far, the war is predictable.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant outside the mansion entered. After standing still, he said, "dadanyu, there''s a man from outside the mansion. He said he''s from Lelang County of Liaodong Peninsula. I''d like to see dadanyu if I have something to do."


    "Please


    Give me an order.


    As for the situation of Lelang County in Eastern Liaoning, Tatton actually knew about it. After all, Liaodong and Western Liaoning are in the area outside Youzhou, so Tatton immediately ordered the people from Lelang county.


    The valet went to give orders, and soon saw a middle-aged man in his early 40s enter.


    He was thin, but his eyes were bright.


    It''s extraordinary.


    If Zhang Xiu is here, she will know the person in front of her. This person is not someone else, but Guo Jia.


    It was once the pillar of Wei state.


    He was once an unparalleled statesman of the state of Wei.


    He was a military adviser of the state of Wei.At that time, Cao ang was defeated and retreated from the sea. Guo Jia followed Cao ang and retreated into eastern Liaoning and entered Lelang county. As a matter of fact, when the Cao family entered Lelang County earlier, they easily occupied the Liaodong Peninsula and had a foothold in the Liaodong Peninsula.


    After several years of development, Cao ang had already unified Liaodong.


    Even more, Cao ang went south and had already entered the region of the Japanese state. He occupied the Japanese state and other places and wantonly developed the Japanese state and other places. Cao Ang''s strength was already extraordinary.


    Today, Cao ang saw an opportunity when he attacked the border of Daqin. Because Cao ang concluded that Zhang Xiu was not willing to bear humiliation. After the attack on the border of Daqin, Zhang Xiu could not ignore it.


    This is Cao Ang''s conclusion.


    Therefore, after discussing with Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and others, Cao ang finally made a plan and sent Guo Jia to Liucheng in western Liaoning. That is to say, Cao ang specially wanted to unite with Tatton to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    This is a general plan.


    After Guo Jia entered, he looked as if he was in the right mood. He shook his sleeve robe, arched his hand and said, "Guo Jia, the situ of the state of Wei, has seen Wu Huan and Da Danyu."


    Today, Guo Jia holds the post of situ.


    This is one of the three gongs.


    As a matter of fact, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun you and Cheng Yu were the pillars of the Wei state where Cao ang lived.


    Guo Jia is a member of the core.


    "In the early years, Ben got the news that Cao Wei had moved to Liaodong," he said in a deep voice. After several years, I didn''t expect that Cao Wei''s people finally came. Guo situ came to Ben Chanyu, but what''s the matter? "


    At the moment, although there is doubt in his heart, in fact, he did not show it.


    Guo Jia gave a smile and said, "I''m here for the sake of Wu Huan''s life and death."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Dayton immediately began to laugh.


    In his laughter, he showed full confidence and said, "Guo situ, you Han people just like alarmist talk. Your purpose, hide it, and then scare me by scaremongering, to achieve your purpose. I''ve heard that when I was young. If you do, it won''t work here. "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "the big one is more than the Miao one. The so-called words are created out of nothing and are deceitful. However, there are quite detailed reasons for what I have said. I won''t say that without a good reason. "


    He said: "well, Ben Chanyu wants to listen. What do you want to say. I''d like to hear more about this list! "

 Chapter 1111

    Guo Jia did not have the slightest stage fright in the face of Dayton. Even in Guo Jia''s heart, he actually looked down upon him. A barbarian in Wuhuan, who has no knowledge of poetry or Han culture, only knows how to kill and plunder, is no different from a brute.


    It''s just, it''s got to be done.


    Today, Cao ang has developed in Liaodong for several years. Although he has some strength, in fact, Cao Ang''s strength is still very weak. On the one hand, it is limited by Liaodong''s own strength, and on the other hand, the economy can''t keep up.


    As a result, it is impossible for Cao ang to compete with Zhang Xiu alone.


    So, we have to rely on Dayton.


    Guo Jia was not impatient. He said with a straight face, "I admire Da Dan''s invasion of the Qin border. Because on the premise that the great Qin Dynasty was so powerful, it is really admirable that Wu Huan dared to take advantage of it. "


    He puffed his cheek.


    Is this ridicule?


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "it''s not ridicule or irony, but sincere praise. Da Danyu should know that Cao Wei and Da Qin share a bitter hatred. The former Emperor of Cao Wei died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. It can be said that Cao Wei was looking forward to anything that could weaken Daqin. Therefore, I say that Da Dan Yu dares to lead the army to attack the border, and I, Cao Wei, all over the world, deeply admire him. "


    "Hahaha, I''m flattered. I''m flattered."


    After listening to Guo Jia''s words, he showed a smile on his rough cheek.


    In fact, he just wanted to play autumn.


    A woman is so tender that she can squeeze water. Everyone likes such a woman. That''s why Tatton led his troops South and plundered an area in succession.


    Guo Jia continued: "let''s get back to the point. It''s about Wu Huan''s life and death. There are three reasons why I have such a conclusion. "


    "I''d like to hear about it," he said


    Guo Jia said: "first, all aspects of the great Qin Dynasty are developing. Today''s great Qin Dynasty is no less than that of the Great Han Dynasty, and it has to catch up with and surpass the Great Han Dynasty in everything. In the Great Han Dynasty, those who committed crimes against our strong Han Dynasty would be punished. Now that we are in Daqin, since we have to catch up with the Great Han in everything, if we do not deal with or even take revenge on this matter, how do the people in the world see Daqin? "


    "At that time, people''s hearts will be lost."


    "At that time, the dignity and confidence of Daqin will be destroyed. So what happened to koubian is that Daqin can''t make peace in any case. He will surely send troops. "


    Guo Jia talked with great eloquence and continued: "let me tell you something about Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is the one who likes to fight personally. Now that she wants to fight against Wuhuan, she must come to Youzhou in person, and will take charge of it in person. "


    Brush!


    His face changed slightly.


    The reason why he felt a little shocked was not that Zhang Xiu went to Youzhou in person, but Guo Jia''s inference.


    Tatton knows that Zhang Xiu has arrived because Su Nanlou has gone down to the south in person and his arms have been cut off by Zhang Xiu, so Tatton knows that Zhang Xiu has arrived. But Guo Jia didn''t know. Because Guo Jiagang arrived in Liucheng County, he deduced that Zhang Xiu must go north.


    So, it''s really amazing.


    The way he looked at Guo Jia also changed.


    Guo Jia is worthy of Guo Jia.


    He is worthy of being a wise man and a military strategist of the state of Wei.


    He took a deep breath, and his contempt for Guo Jia also subsided. He looked solemn and said, "Mr. Guo, you mentioned three reasons. What''s the second reason?"


    His address to Guo Jia has changed.


    No longer Guo situ.


    No longer Guo Jia.


    It''s Mr. Guo.


    Guo Jia was aware of the change in address. As soon as he heard his name, he knew that Zhang Xiu might have arrived in Youzhou, otherwise his attitude would not have changed so quickly.


    Guo Jia didn''t go on and said, "if I infer that Zhang Xiu has arrived in Youzhou, or even in Jicheng, right?"


    "Yes


    He nodded in reply.


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "it seems that this war is imminent and is about to happen."


    He urged: "Mr. Guo, you haven''t mentioned the second reason?"


    Guo Jia said: "the second reason is the difference between the strength of Daqin and Wuhuan. Under the governance of Zhang Xiu, in recent years, Daqin not only successfully carried out land reform, but also built cement roads leading to all States in the country. "


    "The strength of the whole Daqin is totally new."


    "In the late Han Dynasty or the Great Han Dynasty, the strength may not be as strong as that of the great Qin Dynasty."


    "The most important thing is that with the cement road built by Daqin, it''s easy to dispatch troops from Chang''an to Youzhou. Because the roads are cheap, it will be easy for the army to go north. "


    "Moreover, it also ensures the cheap transportation of grain and grass."


    Guo Jia zhengse said: "it is the so-called army did not move, food and grass first, because the transportation of food and grass is easy, so Zhang Xiu gathered in Youzhou strength, also more powerful.""On the other hand, since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, there are numerous generals, including Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Ma Chao, Chen Dao and so on, especially Lv Bu and Sha Mo Ke."


    "In addition, Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Li Ru and so on are more sophisticated people."


    "It''s a lot of talent."


    "Under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, the population increased year by year, and the power became more powerful."


    Guo Jia''s eyes, with a trace of dignity, said: "in contrast, Wuhuan has always been in western Liaoning, has always been in the vicinity of Liucheng. Although there has been no war in Wuhuan these years, it has also developed well. But no matter how powerful Wuhuan was, could he compete with the whole Qin Dynasty? It''s nothing like you. Zhang Xiu could invade 100000, 200000 or even 300000 troops. However, even if all the people were soldiers, Wu Huan could not achieve the effect of the great Qin Dynasty. "


    As for the situation of Daqin, Guo Jia knew it even when he was deep in Liaodong.


    Because Daqin had spies from the state of Wei.


    In recent years, Cao ang was in Liaodong. Although Cao ang developed his strength, constantly expanded and swept all over the country, in fact, he always carefully observed the situation of Daqin to understand the specific situation of Daqin.


    When the land reform was carried out, Cao ang, Guo Jia, Xun you and others even thought that there would be turbulence in the whole Qin Dynasty, leading to civil strife in the Qin Dynasty, and Cao Wei had the opportunity to counter attack.


    However, the land reform was soon suppressed.


    Everything has returned to calm.


    Even through the land reform, Daqin''s strength has been greatly enhanced, even far beyond the past. Such a great Qin made Guo Jia afraid, because the great Qin was so powerful.


    He was even more frightened.


    Before that, he didn''t analyze it carefully. Now when he heard Guo Jia''s words, he felt nervous and worried. Because he suddenly found that it was the most unwise decision to provoke Daqin at this time.

 Chapter 1112

    At first, he was frightened, but after a moment, he soon regained his peace.


    He is not afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    Because although the Wuhuan people live in Liucheng County temporarily, they can also leave. They don''t need to be in Liucheng county all the time. Even if it is defeated by Zhang Xiu, it is a big deal to abandon Liucheng and leave the Royal Court of Wuhuan people. Of course, he won''t say that. After all, he is a big Danyu and the king of Wuhuan people. He can''t be timid without fighting.


    He admired Guo Jia even more and said, "Mr. Guo, what''s the third point?"


    Guo Jia said: "this is a battle that the Qin Dynasty will surely win."


    "After careful analysis, we will find that this war is the first one after the whole Qin Dynasty was pacified. Although Zhang Xiu had attacked Xiongnu, Xianbei and many Qiang people in Liangzhou before


    "But that was all the war before."


    "All this happened before, not after the founding of the country."


    Guo Jia said: "after the founding of the great Qin Dynasty, the national power became stronger and stronger, and the country prospered day by day. Under such a premise, Daqin must be strong and prosperous, and it is impossible to ignore the invasion. So as long as we send troops, we must win.


    After a pause, Guo Jia said: "even if Daqin paid a big price, even if he did his best, he had to win. For Daqin and even Zhang Xiu, this is a battle that must be won. Once the battle of the great Qin Dynasty is defeated, the national prestige will be lost. "


    After listening, he nodded busily.


    He agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis.


    Today''s Daqin is at its best and has great strength. Under such a premise, Daqin can never admit defeat in foreign wars. As long as it wants to fight, it must win.


    This is the root of Daqin.


    After thinking about it, he said: "since Mr. Guo has found the problem and knows that Zhang Xiu is going to destroy Wuhuan people, what strategies does Mr. Guo have to deal with it?"


    Since Guo Jia came, he said that Cao Wei had a plan to deal with it.


    That''s the bottom line.


    Otherwise, Guo Jia doesn''t have to come to Liucheng and go all the way.


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "in fact, it''s not difficult to deal with Zhang Xiu. Because in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu is not aware of the existence of Cao Wei. For Zhang Xiu, Cao Wei is the biggest variable. And this battle is the biggest help for Da Danyu, we Cao Wei. "


    The words are full of confidence.


    When Guo Jia was in Cao Wei, he was not very good. But when he arrived in Lelang County, Liaoxi County, he often practiced martial arts because of the different environment, so his body became stronger and stronger, and he had a strong voice, which was even more oppressive.


    This is more convincing.


    After pondering in his heart, he continued: "the truth is that, but there is no specific arrangement. What we want to know is the specific arrangements. "


    Nowadays, war is inevitable.


    There has to be a war.


    So I don''t want to hear vague plans, I want to hear detailed plans.


    Guo Jia said: "there is a detailed plan for this war. In the general direction, Da Danyu needs to give up Liucheng for the time being, and then lead his troops to retreat. The next step is to... "


    Guo Jia elaborated the whole plan.


    Guo Jia said the plan all over again, then said: "the key to the plan is to make sure that Zhang Xiu''s army is led to the ambush. As long as Zhang Xiu continues to pursue and arrives at the ambush site, we will jointly fight back. It''s not difficult to wipe out Zhang Xiu. "


    After hearing this, he raised his eyebrows.


    He has listened to all of Guo Jia''s detailed plans. In his opinion, the plan is good. But the key is that once there is a war between the two sides, he must give up Liucheng.


    That''s the problem.


    Liucheng is the root of Wuhuan.


    Once he gave up, Wuhuan would also suffer huge losses.


    Guo Jia continued: "Da Danyu, abandoning Liucheng for the time being can bring long-term stability. Especially once Zhang Xiu''s army was destroyed, even Zhang Xiu was destroyed. Then the strength of Daqin was completely weakened. This is a great opportunity for Daqin. So, I think you can judge and weigh the interests. "


    He turned his eyes and thought about Guo Jia''s words.


    There''s something in his heart.


    It''s just for the time being. It''s not decided yet.


    Su Nan Lou was always below. When he heard Guo Jia''s words, he solemnly said: "Da Danyu, Zhang Xiu is arrogant and domineering, and even more damned. Therefore, he thought that he should be killed. Kill Zhang Xiu and Daqin will collapse. When that happens, it will be easy for us to go south and plunder. Today''s Daqin people, one by one fat flow of oil. Now we go south to plunder, but we can plunder countless benefits. So I agree with this war. "


    After hearing this, he nodded and said, "OK, let''s fight with Zhang Xiu."He looked at Guo Jia and said, "Mr. Guo, I agree with your plan. Cao Wei, please be prepared. We Wuhuan people will withdraw from Liucheng county and cooperate with you. "


    Guo Jia chuckled.


    His reaction was expected.


    Because he has no choice.


    Guo Jia said: "I believe Da Danyu will not regret today''s decision. Now the strength of Daqin is thriving. Every day, Daqin is changing with each passing day. In the long run, when Daqin is stronger, it is bound to sweep the surrounding areas. Under this premise, Wuhuan made preparations early and started a war with Zhang Xiu early, which was also for Wuhuan''s stability. "


    "I know it," he said


    Guo Jia said: "since Da Danyu has made a decision, I will not stay here. I immediately return to report the news, and I, Cao Wei, look forward to hearing from Da Danyu. "


    "Go


    He waved his hand.


    Guo Jia turned and left, leaving only sunanlou and Dayton in the camp.


    Su Nanlou was also agitated. He was cut off by Zhang Xiu, even though he was a leader of the Wuhuan people. But now sunanlou, which has lost both arms, is bound to be marginalized and lose power.


    This is unbearable for sunanlou.


    Su Nanlou wants revenge.


    Su Nanlou even wants to kill Zhang Xiu. He can''t stop until he cuts her to pieces.


    Su Nan Lou said: "Da Danyu, now he has decided to fight Zhang Xiu. But since this war is going to start with Zhang Xiu, it will involve the whole of Wuhuan. Now there are other kings of Wuhuan who also need to be informed. "


    "Are you worried they won''t cooperate?" he said


    "Yes


    Su Nan Lou nodded and answered.


    He said with a smile: "the whole Wuhuan people started the plunder. All people, can not only have the benefit, regardless of others. So in this war, they have no choice. What''s more, Zhang Xiu is so powerful and powerful. Although these people have their own thoughts, in the end, they can''t have a choice. "


    Su Nan said: "you have to be ready."


    But he didn''t delay his time. Immediately, he arranged for people to call all the other leaders of Wuhuan''s departments, explaining the Wuhuan crisis mentioned by Guo Jia.


    It has to be said that Guo Jia''s words are very persuasive. Under the explanation of Tatton''s words, everyone agrees with them. They all look relaxed originally, but after Tatton''s words, they finally get nervous.


    With this premise, the leaders of the tribes in Wuhuan were inspired to fight.


    Everyone is willing to fight.


    Everyone is willing to fight to the death.


    Because after plundering Daqin, there was no choice.


    After the first World War, he began to talk about Guo Jialai''s request for alliance. Under such a premise, all the Wuhuan people agreed to unite with Cao Wei.


    Because the situation of Wuhuan people is unfavorable.


    Now we need Cao Wei.


    Only by uniting with Cao Wei can we win and plunder again.


    After persuading everyone, he was also relieved. Now, all the people in Wuhuan are ready for the first world war one by one, so they have no worries.

 Chapter 1113

    In May, the weather is getting warmer.


    Even in the north, everything is full of vitality, and the whole land of Youzhou is even busier. And Zhang Xiu, who has been waiting in Jicheng, is finally waiting for Huang Zhong''s arrival.


    All the troops led by Huang Zhong have arrived.


    Huang Zhong''s flying bear army and Gan Ning''s fierce tiger army have joined together, and their forces have exceeded 80000.


    Such a force is already very strong.


    Enough to destroy Wuhuan.


    When everything was ready, Zhang Xiu did not delay any more. She led her army to the north of Youzhou. The mighty army is on their way together, and the momentum is vast.


    After arriving at the border all the way north, the army went out of the Youzhou border and went straight to Liucheng.


    Because along the way of Ganning, sentries have been arranged for a long time.


    Everything is a familiar road.


    So there was no obstruction along the way.


    The army is on its way, getting closer and closer to Liucheng county. At the same time, the royal guards'' information about the Wuhuan people became more and more intensive, and kept sending back the news of the Wuhuan people.


    And in Liucheng.


    The hall of Dadan yudun''s mansion is already overcrowded. People from all the tribes of Wuhuan gather here. On all faces, there was a dignified look.


    Because Zhang Xiu has come.


    Zhang Xiu is less than a day away from Liucheng.


    One day at most, Zhang Xiu will arrive.


    He looked around the crowd, looking solemn and upright, and said, "Zhang Xiu is less than a day away from Liucheng. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s military strength was at least 80000, which was unprecedented. With all our forces, if we were to garrison with all our strength, there would be a possibility of World War I. But before that, we had already made a plan. First garrison Liucheng, and then withdraw from Liucheng, and then lure Zhang Xiu pursuit, and Cao Wei forces attack Zhang Xiu. Do you have any objection to that? "


    "No objection!"


    Most of them answered.


    At this time, a young man in his twenties said: "Da Danyu, although we have made plans for this war, in fact, we can''t trust Cao Wei completely. If at the end of the day, Cao Wei turned against the water and wanted to destroy Wuhuan, then it would be a man who would take advantage of me. The Han people are originally crafty people. They can''t be trusted. "


    The young man''s name is louban, and he also has high prestige in Wuhuan. His prestige did not come from his ability, but from his identity, because he was the son of the late Wu Huan Da Dan Yu Qiu Li Ju.


    When Qiu Liju lived in Wuhuan in the past, he had a high prestige, which convinced Wuhuan.


    However, Qiu Liju died early, and Tatton was the son of Qiu Liju''s elder brother. Especially Tatton had high prestige in Wuhuan and had the ability and means. In addition, Qiu Liju''s own son louban was too young to take charge of Wuhuan. Therefore, Qiu Liju named Tatton as Da Danyu.


    Rao is so, Lou ban is still a special identity.


    After all, he is the son of Qiu Liju.


    Especially around louban, there are Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wu Yan of the three kings of Wuhuan who support louban. So louban has a lot of strength, so that louban''s words have a certain weight even though he has not established any achievements.


    When he heard what Lou Ban said, he said with a smile: "what Lou Ban said, Ben Shanyu also deeply agrees. Both the Qin Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty are unreliable and untrustworthy. But now, we can only unite with Cao Wei. Otherwise, our strength alone will not be able to resist the army of Daqin. After all, the strength of the great Qin Dynasty is far greater than that of the Great Han Dynasty. "


    Lou Ban said: "Da Dan is right. I just want to remind you. We Wuhuan people, after all, have to rely on ourselves. You can''t rely on others. "


    "So it is," he said


    "So under this premise, I have a suggestion," louban said


    His brow went up.


    The plan was made before, and now the building class has to make suggestions. Obviously, they don''t intend to act according to the previous plan. If we simply follow the previous plan, we will not be able to propose a new plan.


    He didn''t like it in his heart, but he couldn''t refuse the fact that Lou ban had become powerful. He said, "if you have any suggestions, it doesn''t matter. As long as it''s in my favor, Ben Shan Yu has no problem


    When it comes to the new plan, he gives a precondition.


    That is in favor of Wuhuan.


    If it goes against Wu Huan, he will refute it and will not agree with it.


    Louban said: "in this war, if all our troops gather in Liucheng, it is not suitable, and it is not of great value. Therefore, I suggest that all the troops of Da Dan Yu''s headquarters gather in Liucheng and pretend to resist. "


    "Before Zhang Xiu arrives, we divide our forces."


    "Under my command, Wu Huan left Liucheng ahead of time and laid an ambush in Bailang mountain near Liucheng. Once Zhang Xiu attacks Liucheng and Da Danyu withdraws, I will lead the army to block Zhang Xiu''s retreat. "


    "When Da Danyu and Cao Wei forces jointly attacked Zhang Xiu, I would lead the army to attack from Zhang Xiu''s rear. At that time, the three armies will attack. "Lou Ban said with a smile: "Da Danyu, in the words of the Han people, this is a drastic solution."


    He narrowed his eyes when he heard it.


    Although Lou ban did this to copy Zhang Xiu''s back road, in fact, from another point of view, Lou ban was withdrawing troops ahead of time. If Zhang Xiu is defeated by the troops of Dayton and Cao Wei, Lou ban can take advantage of the situation. If there is no way to defeat Zhang Xiu, Lou ban will leave early.


    This is the cunning of louban.


    In other words, this is the cunning of the people around louban. They avoid risks, but they hold the benefits in their hands.


    Cunning!


    He was cold inside.


    I didn''t expect that at the critical moment, Lou ban didn''t have the same heart with him, but intended to stab him.


    Lou Ban said with a smile: "Da Danyu, my plan is for Wu Huan''s sake, and also for this victory. If we want to win this battle, we must take it by surprise. You also said that Zhang Xiu''s strength is powerful and not easy to deal with. At this time, it''s best to avoid its edge, and then prepare to calculate Zhang Xiu. "


    "Yes, I agree," he said


    "Xie Da Shan Yu."


    The floor class a listen, face more smile.


    He glanced at Nanlou, Wuyan and Su Puyan, and nodded to them. Because louban''s proposal was originally put forward by Nanlou, Wuyan and Su Puyan. Louban was only responsible for elaborating.


    Dayton no longer looked at the building class, looked around the crowd and said, "do you have any objection?"


    "No more!"


    They answered again.


    On all faces, there was a look of expectation, because they all believed that the battle would be won.


    No one is timid.


    Even if it was Zhang Xiu, Wu Huan wanted to fight. Because if Zhang Xiu''s army is completely defeated in this battle, then the soldiers of Daqin will no longer be terrible, and even they can go south to plunder at any time.


    By then, Daqin will be their back garden.


    You can take advantage at any time.

 Chapter 1114

    After the discussion, louban took Nanlou, supuyan and Wuyan to leave dadanyu''s residence and went straight back to the barracks. On the one hand, he arranged for people to mobilize the army to leave. On the other hand, he called together Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wu Yan. The four guests and hosts took their seats and discussed the matter.


    Louban looks a little delicate. He sits upright, looks at Nanlou and other three people, and says, "three, how do you think about this war with Zhang Xiu, regardless of the analysis of Dayton?"


    Although louban agrees with Dayton''s analysis, louban also has his own ideas when it comes to war.


    In fact, he did not agree with the alliance with Cao Wei.


    More do not agree with Zhang Xiu.


    In Lou Ban''s opinion, when Zhang Xiu comes, they can choose to escape. They don''t need to stay, and they don''t need to use Cao Wei''s power.


    When Nanlou heard this, she turned her eyes and thought about it. Then she said, "well, Zhang Xiu is not a good friend. We''ve been in the frontier fortress, and we know Zhang Xiu''s achievements. "


    "It can be seen from the sweeping of Zhang Xiu in the past that it was in general."


    "In particular, Gongsun Zan was easily exterminated."


    "Gongsun Zan''s strength is well known. Everyone knows that Gongsun Zan''s strength is powerful. Now, it''s not easy for us to compete with the stronger Zhang Xiu! "


    Nanlou''s expression was solemn and said: "Cao Wei in the past was not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. What''s more, Daqin has been unified for several years. Today''s Daqin is not what it used to be. It''s not easy to compete with Zhang Xiu. "


    Su Puyan also nodded his head and said, "to be honest, I didn''t agree with the plundering of the border of Daqin in the past. But at that time, most people agreed, especially my son-in-law, who wanted to go south and plunder. "


    "So I agreed."


    "Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu was offended. It''s not easy to go to war with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Even the slightest carelessness is the disaster of extermination."


    Su Puyan continued: "the Huns in the past provoked Zhang Xiu, so that they were completely exterminated. Now, the war between us and Zhang Xiu is also a battle of life and death. If this war is not handled properly, Wuhuan will also be in trouble. "


    It''s wise for us to stay away from Zhang Fengmang for a while. If the edge of Zhang Xiu will be exposed, it is hard to resist, we will not manage, or even escape. If Zhang Xiu shows fatigue and can''t resist it, we''ll attack and force Zhang Xiu. This is my plan. "


    Louban listened to the people''s words and nodded: "I agree with Wuyan''s words."


    In fact, he is not willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Just had to fight.


    After discussing with the public, some soldiers came in and reported that all the soldiers in the army had assembled and could leave at any time. Without delay, Lou ban took Su Puyan and others and got up to walk out of the big account of the Chinese army and mobilize the troops under his command to leave.


    The troops under Lou Ban''s command are 50000 elite.


    This is the elite.


    If louban wants to coerce their own tribal sons, he can even pull up nearly 100000 tribal strength. But the elites around him in his daily life are more than 50000 elites.


    The army left in great force and marched quickly.


    After the army of louban left, the news was also sent back quickly, and it reached Dayton''s ears.


    Dayton got the news with a cold face.


    He didn''t like louban.


    Because louban''s existence has been threatening his position. According to the normal situation, louban should be Wuhuan''s Da Danyu, but when Qiu Liju died, louban was too young, so he had the chance to take charge of Wuhuan. But with the growth of Lou ban, the appeal for Lou ban to succeed to the throne has become higher and higher.


    More and more people want louban to succeed, especially the three leaders of Wuhuan, Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wuyan, who are on the same side of louban. Their strength can compete with that of Tatton.


    It''s no less powerful than Dayton.


    Especially this time, Lou ban came up with different opinions. He was totally divided into different groups and didn''t cooperate with his arrangement. Such a thing made him feel unhappy and even murderous.


    It''s a disaster to keep the building class.


    Su Nanlou sits below. His arms have been bandaged again. Although he was physically injured, his fighting spirit did not decrease. Seeing that he was not happy, Su Nanlou turned his mind and said, "Da Danyu, I have something to say in my humble position. I don''t know what to say."


    "But it doesn''t matter," he said


    Su Nan Lou said: "the boy of Lou ban is more and more courageous. Now he is more and more frequent in resisting the arrangement of Da Chanyu. This time, it was even more blatant. If you want me to say that this man from louban is a disaster sooner or later, it''s not suitable to stay for a long time. "


    "He is my brother after all," he said


    Su Nan Lou snorted and said, "Da Danyu, because Qiu Liju is in Da Danyu''s position, you should pay more attention to the Lou ban. But in fact, the floor class is not grateful, has been committed to enhance their own strength. Over the years, the strength of louban has been no less than that of Da Dan. He did not regard you as a brother at all"In Lou Ban''s heart, he always thinks that Da Danyu has stolen his father''s position."


    "That''s why it''s so weird all the time."


    "But he forgot that if it had not been for Da Danyu''s care, if it had not been for Da Danyu''s kindness, Lou ban would have died long ago. Even Qiu Liju''s tribe, where Da Chanyu lives, has long been annexed. "


    Su Nan Lou said: "Da Danyu, you are kind. But in fact, you are a tiger. In the end, you will kill all your brothers because of your kindness. "


    He frowned.


    His face was very solemn and dignified.


    Su Nan Lou''s words moved him.


    If it had not been for louban''s blatant departure today and his disobedience to his big plan, Dayton would not have been like this. But because of Lou Ban''s hostility, his heart changed.


    Su Nan Lou continued: "Da Danyu, I think that since I want to get rid of Lou ban, now is the best opportunity."


    "What chance?"


    He spoke.


    Su Nan Lou''s eyes flashed a sharp look and said: "after the army of Lou ban left Liucheng, they hid in the nearby Bailang mountain and were ready to move. Then, we''ll arrange for someone to give the hiding place of louban to Zhang Xiu. Then, entice Zhang Xiu to ambush. Next, we ambush Zhang Xiu. "


    "Of course, we may not win by our strength."


    "At least, it can weaken Zhang Xiu."


    "If we can''t win the first World War, we will immediately return to Liucheng and make a little resistance with the help of the city of Liucheng. At that time, he will weaken Zhang Xiu, then wait for the opportunity to retreat and join forces with Cao Wei to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Su Nan Lou put forward a plan.


    He in order to revenge, even the floor class are used up, everything is to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    There was a flash in his eyes.


    He''s a little excited.


    I have to say that Su Nanlou''s plan to kill people with a knife is very good. Such a plan, the perfect deal with the floor class, but also weakened Zhang Xiu, is a double-edged stratagem.


    "Well, do as you plan."


    With a fist in his hand and a steady look in his eyes, he was also willing to go.


    "Big single is better than wise!"


    Su Nanlou''s face was also happy.


    With the decision of Dayton, we will have a certain degree of assurance in dealing with Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1115

    Zhang Xiu led the troops to the north, and the army rushed all the way to Liucheng. When the army was marching, Zhang Xiu was riding on his horse. He also observed everything around him along the way.


    Close to Liucheng, the place is actually more barren.


    Even though Liucheng is the seat of the Royal Court of Wuhuan people, in fact, Liucheng is not very prosperous. After all, the people of Wuhuan are not like the people of Central Plains. Only those who live at the bottom do farm. As for more Wuhuan people, they kept on wandering and hunting.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in her eyes, and she was full of confidence in attacking Wuhuan.


    Wu Huan, not to worry about.


    Pang Tong followed and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, up to now, Wu Huan has never sent troops to resist. It seems that the Wuhuan people are preparing to resist in Liucheng this time. That''s good. It''s convenient for us to attack Liucheng in one go. When there is no gunpowder, it is more difficult to attack a city. But now, with gunpowder, it''s easy to break the gate of Liucheng. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it is not difficult to win this battle. This war is to completely destroy Wuhuan. "


    Zhang Xiu is not compassionate.


    When the Wuhuan people slaughtered the people on the border, Zhang Xiu killed them directly, tooth for tooth, blood for blood. Especially for Wu Huan, it is impossible to be naturalized simply by virtue. In order to assimilate the Wuhuan people, the only way is to assimilate them with iron blood.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there was the royal guards galloping back.


    Royal Guard path to Wang Yue''s side, handed a letter. After reading the letter, Wang Yue showed an unexpected look on his face. He quickly came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, there is a message from the royal guards lurking in Liucheng. Please read it."


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly.


    After watching it, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    The news sent back by the royal guards is the news that Lou ban is hiding near the Bailang mountain. In this news, there are detailed information, from the identity of Lou ban to the number of troops led by Lou ban, as well as the hiding place of a group of people around Lou ban.


    Zhang Xiu handed the letter to Pang Tong and said, "here, have a look."


    "Here it is


    When Pang Tong got the order, he quickly browsed it.


    When Pang Tong finished reading it, he said, "Your Majesty, this is strange! You know, louban is also one of the leaders of Wuhuan. Even louban''s strength is no less than that of Dayton. "


    "What''s more, under Lou ban, there are three kings, Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wuyan, who have great strength and influence. Under such a premise, the news leaked. And the news came from Liucheng, obviously from Dayton. "


    "I think there are two possibilities."


    Pang Tong''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "first, it''s really a deliberate act, that is to deal with Lou ban. After all, louban is the son of Qiu Liju, which is a great threat to Wu Huan Da Danyu. It''s also natural that he wants to get rid of Lou ban and solve the people who threaten his position. "


    "The second one is to lure us to langdun, and then to ambush us on purpose. The reason for this news is that louban has become a bait and a trap to attract us. "


    "This is my judgment."


    Pang Tong''s eyes were wise, and he continued: "but I think that wealth is in danger. Even if Bailang mountain is in danger, we can''t miss the opportunity. It''s because the opportunity will never come again. Once the opportunity to weaken the Wuhuan people is lost, it will be hard to find another opportunity. "


    "Even in our plan, we can take ambush into consideration."


    "Step by step calculation, completely dead floor class."


    "As long as we get rid of Lou ban, it will be easier for us to deal with Wu Huan."


    Pang Tong said, "please judge my humble opinion."


    Zhang Xiu has a thoughtful look in her eyes.


    He also has his own judgment on this war, because it is obvious that this war has thrown bait. No matter whether the bait is true or false, Zhang Xiu can''t give it up, because the bait is too big.


    This is a great opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Ganning not far away and asked, "how far away are we from Bailang mountain?"


    Ganning said: "tell your majesty, Bailang mountain is in the northeast of our country, and it is more than 100 miles away. At least, it''s a day away. From where we are now, go straight to Liucheng, which is closer. On the contrary, it will be further to the Bailang mountain. "


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu said again, "what''s the landform of Bailang mountain?"


    Gan Ning said: "the terrain of Bailang mountain is not steep, and there are no rugged roads. If you arrive at Bailang mountain, you can attack easily. But there is a problem in the direction of Bailang mountain. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the problem?"


    Gan Ning replied: "the roads around Bailang mountain are smooth. They extend in all directions, whether to the north, or to the East, or in other directions. Once the Wuhuan people in Bailang mountain can''t resist, it is very likely that they will withdraw immediately. I''m afraid it''s not easy to cover them up because the road is clear. Even if we have cavalry, but the other side is mainly cavalry, it is not easy to cover upZhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed.


    He is thinking about the pros and cons.


    Originally, Zhang Xiu''s heart, in fact, also tends to attack Lou ban in Bailang mountain. Because louban is located in Bailang mountain, as long as you kill him, the other side has no fortifications. If you work hard, you can defeat him.


    The problem is that it''s too easy for the other side to retreat.


    Moreover, it is impossible to determine what kind of situation it is.


    What if this is the trap of the Wuhuan people?


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath. After a moment, she made a decision and solemnly said, "under normal circumstances, we should attack the louban of Bailang mountain. But in fact, the strength of Liucheng is equal to that of louban. "


    "The most important thing is that in his heart, he definitely thinks that we will go to Bailang mountain, and Liucheng is not defending. Once we attack, there will be less resistance


    "If there is no gunpowder, it will be difficult for us to attack the city."


    "But now, we have gunpowder. It''s easy to break Liucheng."


    "It can be said that Liucheng is just like paper paste in front of us. There is not much difficulty. Therefore, I think it is more suitable to attack Liucheng by surprise. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the most important thing is that we attack Liucheng with integrity and are not afraid of ambush. As for Bailang mountain, there may be people attacking us. Now that we know it, it is even less likely to affect us. "


    "My decision is to attack Liucheng."


    "Attack Liucheng by force."


    "Kill Dayton first, and then solve the louban in Bailang mountain."


    With a sharp look on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "this time, we surrounded Liucheng, making it difficult for the people of Liucheng to fly. And now it''s more than an hour away from dusk, at most. We''re on our way now, pretending to rush to Bailang mountain. In fact, we''re going straight to Liucheng. Tonight, we will arrive at Liucheng and work hard to break it. "


    Gan Ning zhengse way: "Your Majesty is wise, minister also agree to attack Liucheng."


    Huang Zhong said, "I''m seconded!"


    Pang Tong thought about it carefully and said: "from the perspective of surprise and safety, it is more reliable to attack Liucheng. Your Majesty''s decision, and I agree with you. "


    The rest of the people have made their stand.


    Everyone agrees with Zhang Xiu''s decision and is willing to attack Liucheng directly.


    With a decision, Zhang Xiu began to arrange, the army began to turn, the mighty army banners, but to the direction of Bailang mountain. However, after the army turned, there was an army secretly turning to the direction of Liucheng county. With the departure of one army, Zhang Xiu left only a few to turn around with banners. Most of the rest had already gone to Liucheng.

 Chapter 1116

    Liucheng, in the city.


    Under the night, Liucheng became silent, especially on the streets of the city, people could not be seen everywhere, and all of them had taken a rest. However, Danyu''s mansion was full of lights and dancing.


    When he made the decision, he still had some tangles in his heart, thinking that he had harmed Lou ban. But after the decision was made and the arrangement was made, the burden of Dayton was no longer there, because the arrangement had been made properly.


    In the hall, there are warblers.


    Tatton sat on the throne, Su Nan Lou and the rest of Tatton''s lineage were all present. As a matter of fact, these people have already known about the murder by using a knife. They all agree.


    After all, louban is a threat.


    To get rid of Lou ban is the best for Wu Huan and even Yu Dayton.


    When Tatton and the others were enjoying singing and dancing, drinking wine and eating meat, a sentinel came in and reported that Zhang Xiu had changed his way to Bailang mountain after she got the news.


    As soon as the news came out, there was a lot of joy.


    Everyone cheered.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s going to the direction of Bailang mountain means that the next battlefield is in the direction of Bailang mountain. Once Lou ban and Zhang Xiu go to war, the final result is that both sides will lose. Of course, no matter which side wins, Dayton can even check and balance.


    That''s why the crowd cheered.


    Su Nan Lou sat down and cheered.


    This time, we will be able to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    He is looking forward to the results.


    Among the cheers of the crowd, they all drank a lot of wine, and then went crazy in the hall. They even captured the women for fun in public.


    From the beginning to the end, Dayton never stopped him, even he participated in it and enjoyed it all.


    In the pursuit of pleasure among the leaders of the various departments stationed in Wuhuan, time passed in a hurry. In a twinkling of an eye, it was already past the early morning and into the late middle of the night. While the crowd is still busy making fun, on the official road leading to Liucheng, a large army is rushing to Liucheng.


    This army is the Qin army.


    The leader is the fierce tiger army.


    The fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning was the vanguard, followed by the flying bear army.


    Zhang Xiu is also in the middle army.


    The army is mighty, and it is getting closer and closer to Liucheng. On the night of April and may, even in the middle of the night, there is a waning moon hanging in the sky. Under the light of the moon, even without a torch, you can see clearly the road ahead.


    Zhang Xiu overlooks the distance, vaguely, already can see the distance of Liucheng.


    He had expectations in his eyes.


    Soon!


    We will arrive at Liucheng soon.


    Tonight, the battle will begin. At the same time, tonight''s war will come to an end.


    The distance keeps drawing in.


    Less than half an hour later, the army of the Qin Dynasty was close to the county. And the soldiers in the front, hiding in the moonlight, have already begun to rush forward to the gate of the city.


    Liucheng is located in the north, there is no moat.


    The soldiers of Qin army in the front are already carrying gunpowder. With the help of night, they lurk to the gate of the city. Then, they began to pile up the powder package by package.


    Piles of gunpowder were placed, and everyone was waiting for the order.


    Ganning didn''t order a fire for the time being.


    For the time being, the army has not completely surrounded Liucheng. About a quarter of an hour later, all the troops were in place and surrounded Liucheng. Ganning gave the order to light the fire.


    The soldier took out the flint, ignited the fold, and quickly ignited the fire.


    When the fuse is ignited, it burns.


    "Withdraw!"


    Qin soldiers, retreat quickly.


    Everyone quickly away, and the fuse is still like a fire snake, fast moving. When the soldiers of Qin army, who were responsible for carrying gunpowder, had already run a hundred paces away, the line of fire was close to the gunpowder.


    "Boom!"


    The gunpowder exploded suddenly.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom


    Package after package of gunpowder burst, and under the chain of explosions, the dazzling fire suddenly broke out from the South Gate of Liucheng. The light was so dazzling that people couldn''t even open their eyes. The whole South Gate turned into a sea of fire with a burning smell.


    Even on the city tower, more Wuhuan soldiers were frightened and shocked.


    One by one, the Wuhuan soldiers were silent.


    How is that possible?


    What is the means?


    Is it the God who came down to earth.


    When the Wuhuan soldiers stationed in the garrison tower were shocked, Ganning outside the city pointed to the front with a knife and cried out: "kill


    "Kill


    Countless soldiers cried out.


    More and more soldiers of the Qin Dynasty started to shout and rushed to Liucheng with knives.


    When the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty began to charge, the soldiers of Wuhuan on the city tower responded. However, one by one, the soldiers were in a panic. Seeing that some soldiers of the Qin army were killed, there was no one to resist. They turned around and ran into the city. There were no soldiers to resist.When the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty attacked, they destroyed the mansion in the city.


    At this time, Tatton and the other leaders of Wuhuan were still having fun. One by one, they chased the singer girls, one by one even took off their clothes for fun, and they were all intoxicated with drunken gold fans.


    Boom!!


    There was a loud noise.


    The sound even reached the mansion, even the ground in the hall, there was a tremor. All the people who are looking for pleasure, all stop, one by one look on their faces, all with a trace of panic.


    What''s going on?.


    Dayton was the first to stop. He pushed away the woman in his arms, regardless of her untidy appearance. He stood up straight away and exclaimed, "come on!"


    At the first order, the attendant at the door came in.


    "What happened to the vibration?" he asked? What happened in Liucheng. "


    The attendant shook his head and said, "I don''t know if I can reply to Da Chanyu."


    "Check, check for me."


    I''ll give you a direct order.


    "Yes


    The valet turned and stepped down to arrange quickly.


    He sat down again, but his face didn''t have the previous calm and unrestrained, and he didn''t have the previous mind to play. As for all the tribal leaders in the hall, their faces became tense, and they all gave up their women and waited for the news.


    Seeing this, Su Nan Lou said: "Da Chanyu, I guess it''s just a loud noise. Where did it collapse. It''s not a big thing. Don''t worry about it. "


    "I hope so," he said


    Su Nanlou continued: "is da Danyu worried about Zhang Xiu? Today''s Zhang Xiu must be close to Bailang mountain, and will fight with the army led by Lou ban."


    "I hope so," he said


    In his heart, he was still worried and felt that the situation was not good.


    The previous shock was too big.


    It''s no less than the Earth Dragon turning over.


    As time went by, the hall was silent. Everyone didn''t speak. The atmosphere was very awkward.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a cry broke the silence in the hall. But in the voice of the report, there was panic, haste, worry and fear.


    A moment later, a soldier rushed in quickly. With a plop, the soldier knelt down on one knee and reported aloud: "Da Danyu, Da Qin''s army has arrived. Not only that, but also the use of ghost means to directly collapse the city gate. Today, the army of Daqin has already entered the city and is slaughtering our army. "


    Boom!!


    In his head, it exploded.


    At this moment, his face even showed a look of panic. According to the prediction of Tatton, sunanlou and other leaders of Wuhuan, Zhang Xiu should go to bailangshan to ambush the louban after getting the news that the louban is in bailangshan. However, no one thought that the army led by Zhang Xiu came to Liucheng directly.


    It just messed up Dayton''s plan.


    Even, because he was not prepared, he could not immediately call up the army to resist.


    It''s all in a hurry.


    He looked at the tribal leaders under his command and said in a deep voice: "under the current situation, we can no longer guard Liucheng. Even our troops will be slaughtered. You said, "what should we do?"


    "Withdraw, withdraw at once!"


    Su Nan Lou said in a loud voice: "Da Danyu, now Zhang Xiu''s army is coming, we have lost the city to resist. Our troops, in particular, can''t resist it at all. At present, we can only retreat and take shelter. If we don''t withdraw now, I''m afraid it''s impossible to withdraw later. "


    "Da Danyu, we have to retreat."


    "Please give orders to retreat!"


    The leaders of the Wuhuan tribe spoke one after another. These people have already stood up, and their faces show a hasty look. They want to retreat immediately to avoid Zhang Xiu''s killing.

 Chapter 1117

    The look on Dayton''s face was also iron green, because they had lost their fighting spirit and didn''t want to fight. He took a deep breath and stood up, then said in a deep voice, "withdraw, we will withdraw immediately."


    After hearing this, the crowd rushed out.


    Because they''re going to deploy.


    Because they all want to leave in a hurry.


    After the crowd left, Tatton immediately called his own followers, quickly left the house and went to the barracks to dispatch troops. When Dayton arrived at the barracks, Gan Ning''s vanguard troops had also arrived at the barracks.


    "Kill


    Ganning gave a loud order.


    His face was full of sharpness.


    The soldiers under his command rushed forward quickly to meet the army under his command.


    "Kill


    And then there was a cry.


    One by one, the soldiers yelled and went straight for the Wuhuan soldiers.


    Ganning''s eyes, however, fell directly on Dayton''s body. Because Tatton was not only wearing gold helmets and armor, but also surrounded by soldiers, which led to the target being too conspicuous.


    Gan Ning patted the horse''s back and rushed forward with his knife.


    The horse galloped, and in an instant, it was already in front of him. Gan Ning drinks a lot in his mouth, but he even gets his knife off. With the blade falling and blood splashing, the heads flew out.


    If you kill someone, you''re in the middle of nowhere.


    No one can stop it.


    After a while, Gan Ning had already killed Tatton. He didn''t know Tatton, but he had a preconceived idea that this was the leader of Wu Huan''s Department, so he took the sword.


    The blade fell down, and he quickly sidestepped to avoid it, instead of facing Ganning.


    "Where to escape!"


    Gan Ning, holding a knife, pursues again.


    Even if someone killed him head-on, Gan Ning took the knife and directly killed the Wu Huan soldiers. The horse in the crotch rushed forward, and then came close to Dayton.


    "Kill


    Ganning drinks low again.


    The long sword swung up and crossed an arc in the air, then cut it to the top of his head.


    It''s hard to escape in a hurry.


    There is no escape.


    "Sonorous!"


    He pulled out his sword, and the blade went up. The next moment, he collided with the falling sword.


    "Dang!"


    There was a violent crash.


    Under the great power, he felt that his palm was shaking and the tiger''s mouth was torn immediately. The sword that he held was knocked out immediately, but the blade that fell was still falling.


    "Yes


    The blade fell on his shoulder, and his blood splashed.


    With a scream, he was immediately beheaded.


    On that shoulder, already is blood dripping.


    Gan Ning''s eyes were sharp. He came forward with his sword. His left hand held the reins of the horse, and his right hand swung the sword and cut it off.


    "I''m Dayton. Don''t kill me!"


    He saw the knife fall and roared. If he doesn''t shout out again, I''m afraid he will be in a different place. At the moment when Tatton screamed, Ganning''s eyes shrank. The next moment, the blade stopped and turned, the back of the blade fell, and with a bang, he knocked on Tatton.


    Even if Gan Ning didn''t plan to kill people, he would fall down with a knife, and the force of the impact would make him scream.


    "Take it!"


    Ganning gave a loud order.


    With this order, some soldiers went forward and directly detained him.


    Gan Ning roared: "if you are captured, you will not be killed!"


    "If you are caught, you will not be killed!"


    "If you are caught, you will not be killed!"


    One by one, the soldiers in the army cried out.


    The voice became louder and louder, echoing in the air. When the soldiers of Wuhuan heard it, they were all in a panic. Originally, these Wuhuan soldiers were attacked, but they were panicked. Now I heard the news that Dayton was captured, and I didn''t want to fight again.


    One by one, the Wuhuan soldiers surrendered.


    Even the leaders of the other departments under his command chose to surrender one after another.


    The whole battlefield didn''t last long.


    Just an hour later, the war was over, and the Qin army had begun to clean up the battlefield and count the losses. Originally, all the officers and men under Tatun''s command were ready to flee, but outside the four city gates, they were surrounded by the Qin army, so all the Wuhuan people who escaped were captured.


    When the war was over, it was near dawn.


    In the mansion of Dayton.


    Zhang Xiu''s followers have been dismissed, and one of them has been released.


    Gan Ning and Huang Zhong came to the hall.


    Two faces, are brimming with a brilliant smile, because tonight''s war, is really hearty. With one effort, he completely destroyed the Wuhuan army led by Tatton, and even captured Tatton.Gan Ning said: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we killed more than 6000 Wuhuan soldiers and captured nearly 60000 Wuhuan soldiers. The leaders of all the tribes in Wuhuan, as well as Dahan yudun in Wuhuan, were all captured. This time, all the Wuhuan people in Liucheng were taken down. "


    "Well done!"


    Zhang Xiu was inspired by the news.


    This battle brought out the elegant demeanor of the Qin army.


    It''s wonderful.


    For Daqin, a few years after its founding, the border was violated, and Daqin must take revenge. And this battle, the clean destruction of Wuhuan, is the best proof of the strength of the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the loss of our army in this fight?"


    Gan Ning said: "our army''s damaged strength is less than 800. Of course, the victory of this war is due to gunpowder. If there was no gunpowder to destroy the gate of Liucheng, it would not be so easy, let alone so easy, to win the battle. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "this is the strength of the new weapons. In other words, this is the benefit of technological innovation. For example, once, the flying ball made by Mohist can take us across the city level. Now, with gunpowder, we can easily destroy each other''s gates. This is the same truth. "


    Ganning said, "Your Majesty is holy!"


    Huang Zhong echoed: "Your Majesty is holy!"


    People''s faces are full of brilliant expression, and now the war has made a good start. Next, it''s much easier to fight again and wipe out the rest of the louban.


    Zhang Xiu thought a turn, command a way: "bring up to."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning was ordered to go down immediately.


    After a while, he was brought in by the soldiers. Now he is in a state of panic, worried about being killed by Zhang Xiu. You know, Su Nan Lou had gone south before. As a diplomatic envoy, he should not be dealt with, but his arms were cut off. Now, when he''s captured, he''s worried about being killed.


    So as soon as he saw Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t wait to say, "Your Majesty, he is willing to surrender. He knew his mistake and was willing to submit to Daqin. He only asked his majesty to spare my life. I have an important piece of news for your majesty. It''s very important for him. "


    Zhang Xiu looks at her.


    In front of us, where is the elegant demeanor of Wu Huan Da Dan Yu.


    It''s a total shock fool.


    A person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

 Chapter 1118

    Pang Tong was shocked.


    The policy of slavery should become a national policy.


    It''s not a good thing.


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, once this slave policy becomes a national policy. I''m afraid the whole world will be in turmoil. You know, the world has just calmed down before it regained calm. All of a sudden, the slave policy was released. I''m afraid there will be countless people starting to raise slaves. And once they start to raise slaves, the power of the rich and powerful families will begin to rise. Your majesty, think twice


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Shiyuan, you are too worried. The slave policy must be carried out. However, the slave policy was not aimed at ordinary people, but only at foreigners. No one in Daqin can be a slave. Only people outside the territory of the Qin Dynasty can be used as slaves. This is my bottom line. "


    Pang Tong raised his eyebrows.


    He suddenly understood.


    Such a slave policy would not spread to Daqin, and even promote economic development.


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright. In this way, it will open up another way of money. In fact, there will be countless merchants, one after another to open up territory, to capture foreign slaves


    Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, these are secondary."


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, please show me."


    He had some doubts. What else did he not consider under Zhang Xiu''s slave policy.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the great Qin Dynasty was in Chengping, but under the land reform, countless aristocratic families were weakened. Under the strong suppression of me, even though these elite families are resentful, they dare not do anything or act recklessly. "


    "It''s known to all."


    "In the long run, there will be countless problems."


    "So I''ll give them money."


    "So I give them opportunities."


    Zhang Xiu said: "after all, aristocratic families have strength, and they will fight like crazy jackals for money and more opportunities."


    "The slave policy is their opportunity."


    "In order to earn money and gain profits, they would go out to capture slaves and sell them back to China to earn money."


    "Such an arrangement will transfer their strength."


    "The power of aristocratic families is weakened, and the country is more stable."


    "This is my arrangement."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "so the most fundamental purpose is to transfer their strength, to let them transfer their anger and their strength out of Daqin."


    "Your majesty


    After listening, Pang Tong also admired Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    This is really a good way.


    It''s a good idea.


    Pang Tong changed his words and said, "Your Majesty, although this is a wonderful strategy, in fact, it also has some influence on Daqin. His Majesty''s reputation, in particular, will certainly be criticized. The court openly supported the slave trade. When the news spread, there must be an uproar in the world. The Qingliu Confucians, in particular, will certainly take this opportunity to attack his majesty. "


    "No harm!"


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed and said: "it''s just a small matter. What''s more, under my administration, even if there is a voice of attack in the DPRK, it can be ignored. "


    Pang Tong said: "since your majesty has made a decision, I will arrange it."


    Gan Ning and Huang Zhong have been sitting at the bottom.


    After all, they are only military generals, not involved in other national policies. They just need to listen to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    When Huang Zhong saw that the negotiation was in order, he changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, now the Wuhuan people in Liucheng have been dealt with properly. The rest of the Wuhuan people scattered in western Liaoning can be ignored for the time being. However, how to deal with the group of people in louban, located in Bailang mountain? "


    Zhang xiudao: "what suggestions does Han Sheng have?"


    Huang Zhong hugged his fist and said, "Your Majesty, louban is hiding in Bailang mountain. And we won Liucheng as fast as we could. Today''s Lou ban must not know the situation of Liucheng. Therefore, I think it''s better to rush into Bailang mountain and defeat louban in one go. Even though the surrounding areas of Bailang mountain are in all directions, it is easy to determine the direction of louban''s escape. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought quickly and said, "Gan Ning and Huang Zhong listen to the order!"


    "The end will listen to the order!"


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the two of you, led by your own troops, rushed to Bailang mountain and took down the louban and other leaders of Wuhuan tribe. I''m in Liucheng, waiting for your good news. "


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning should go down together.


    Without delay, they left with the army.


    Now it''s near dawn, although the soldiers in the army have already gone through a battle and have been running all night. But this battle has already won Wuhuan Tatton, and now it is a great achievement to win Wuhuan louban. Every soldier in the army is ready to make contributions, so every soldier is extremely excited and ready for the next World War.The army set out, but Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of the military operations.


    He stayed in Liucheng.


    In the direction of Bailang mountain.


    An open place at the foot of the mountain, where louban and Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wu Yanjin all gather.


    Tens of thousands of troops, black pressure here, the lineup is very large.


    The floor class had a rest all night and was full of energy. After breakfast, Lou ban is still walking around the camp, swaying and inspecting everything in the camp. For Lou ban, he thinks that evacuating Liucheng is a magic stroke, and he doesn''t think he will be found.


    After all, when evacuating, it is quietly evacuating.


    Nanlou, Su Puyan, Wu Yan and others also had smiles on their faces.


    They are going to pick peaches in this war.


    In this battle, they will win.


    With the passage of time, towards noon, suddenly, a sentinel rushed back to louban''s side, loudly reported: "king, no good, Liucheng fell."


    "What?"


    Lou Ban''s face showed a look of disbelief.


    Liucheng fell.


    No way.


    You know, Liucheng is the seat of the Royal Court of Wuhuan people. Even though Liucheng is not very prosperous, in fact, Liucheng is also a strong city. Even if it is attacked, it can not be broken in a short time.


    But from the evacuation of louban to now, it''s just a night''s time, and Liucheng county has fallen.


    Such a thing is just incredible.


    Lou ban used to be as stable as a dog, but now he is in a panic. Because the sudden fall of Liucheng led to his passivity. All he planned was that he had no chance at all.


    Louban said in a deep voice: "where is Dayton?"


    If he fled and went directly to join Cao Wei''s army, everything would be OK for Lou ban.


    But if there is danger, it is the worst.


    Sentinel report: "king, it is not only Liucheng County, but also Datun Danyu who was killed. The rest of the tribe leaders of Wuhuan who stayed in Liucheng have all surrendered. "


    Brush!


    Lou Ban''s face changed again and again, and the situation actually evolved to this point.


    The situation is too bad.


    His death means the failure of the alliance with Cao Wei. In particular, after the loss of troops, Lou Ban''s troops alone could not win. Even if Lou ban wanted to protect himself, it was quite difficult.


    "Alas..."


    Lou ban sighed.


    He waved the sentry to retreat, looked at Su Puyan, Nanlou and Wu Yan, and said: "three, now that you are dead, we Wuhuan people are in an unprecedented predicament. You said, "what should we do?"


    Su Puyan''s face was also unprecedentedly dignified. For a moment, they looked at each other and couldn''t figure out a solution. They also began to worry.

 Chapter 1119

    Zhang Xiu light way: "say, you know what important news.". If it is valuable, I may spare your life. If what you say is worthless, you can die. "


    He was busy and nodded: "valuable, valuable."


    At that moment, he said, "it''s not my intention to invade the border of Daqin. This time, it was because of the instructions of Cao ang of the state of Wei that I led the troops to the south. Cao ang arranged for situ Guojia to attract his majesty to fight. When your majesty arrived in Liucheng, we resisted a little, then pretended to be defeated and retreated. At that time, we would join forces with the state of Wei to ambush the Qin army. "


    He made a certain change in his speech.


    It is a fact that Wuhuan went south to invade, and it is also a fact that Tatun and Cao Wei United.


    But the order is different.


    The original order was that Wuhuan first went south to invade, and then Guo Jialai United. However, in order to shirk the responsibility, he made a change directly, saying that Cao ang had instructed him to go south and shirked the main responsibility on Cao ang.


    So as not to be angry by Zhang Xiu.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and showed an unexpected look.


    Cao ang showed up.


    In the past year, Zhang Xiu invaded Qingzhou, but as soon as he arrived in Huangxian County, Donglai County, Cao''s army and main personnel disappeared completely. Because there was not enough time at that time and Zhang Xiu didn''t investigate, she just arranged for Huang Zhong to be in Qingzhou to avoid Cao Ang''s killing again and causing trouble in Qingzhou.


    Unexpectedly, I got news from Cao ang here.


    Zhang Xiu said, "where is Cao Ang?"


    "Tell your majesty, Cao ang is now in Liaodong, where he established his kingdom. Cao ang occupied the Lelang county and other places, with strong strength. The Wuhuan soldiers under my command once invaded the East, but they never made a breakthrough or even ran into a wall. "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly realized.


    He finally understood.


    In the past, the reason for Cao Ang''s sudden disappearance was finally understood. Cao ang and Wei people all went out to sea from Qingzhou, from Bohai Bay to the north, and then logged in Liaodong Peninsula to escape in Liaodong.


    At that time, Zhang Xiu couldn''t find anyone.


    He continued, "Your Majesty, I have told you the truth. Please spare my life."


    "Spare you?"


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu sneered and said, "if I spare your life, how do the people of the Qin Dynasty treat me? Blood for blood. National enmity means self destruction. As Wu Huan''s Da Danyu, you will not die. How can I explain to the thousands of people in the Qin Dynasty? "


    Brush!


    Dayton''s face changed a lot.


    Zhang Xiu wants to kill him.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are not trustworthy. I''ve told you such important news that you''re going to kill me. "


    He yelled.


    His face was full of anger and impatience.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I said I would spare you from death? I just said that your news is valuable and I will spare your life. But the problem is, your message has no value at all. So you have to die. "


    "You lied to me, you lied to me."


    "How can Cao Ang''s news be worthless?" he exclaimed. Cao Ang''s news can change my life. Zhang Xiu, you have to go back and die. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I said there is no value, naturally there is no value."


    This is true of politics.


    Zhang Xiu can''t let go of his life just because of a piece of news. Otherwise, the destruction of Wu Huan by the Qin Dynasty is a joke.


    "I''ll fight with you."


    Dayton was kneeling on the ground. In a hurry, he jumped up and rushed directly to Zhang Xiu. Even if it''s barehanded, even if it''s Gan Ning''s body, he is still biting his teeth, enduring the pain of his body and quickly approaching Zhang Xiu.


    He is going to kill Zhang Xiu.


    When he saw the distance getting closer, his eyes were shining with fiery light, incomparably excited.


    It''s close!


    It''s close!


    When the look of hope appeared in his eyes, suddenly, in front of Zhang Xiu, a figure suddenly flashed. This person is no one else. He is Wang Yue who has been following Zhang Xiu all the time.


    "Sonorous!"


    When the sword in Wang Yue''s hand came out of its sheath, he saw the cold light twinkling, and the sharp edge of the sword had already been cut to Dayton.


    "Yes


    The sharp blade easily cuts the neck.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed out and fell on the ground.


    Dayton''s body still ran two steps forward, then staggered and fell to the ground. In his big eyes, there was still a thrilling light, because he never thought that Zhang Xiu''s side, the old man with such gray hair and slightly bent back, would burst out such a powerful lethality.


    It''s incredible.


    They''re incredible.


    Plop!


    He raised his hand in mid air and then fell to the ground.The only breath left, completely disappeared.


    Once he tilted his neck, he could not breathe any more.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the body lying on the ground and said, "drag the man down and hang him directly at the gate of the barracks for three days. The imperial edict has been issued to the whole army, and he has been put to death. "


    "Here it is


    Ganning immediately responded.


    Gan Ning was in favor of the execution of Patton.


    Gan Ning said again, "Your Majesty, now he has been killed. But there are tens of thousands of captured Wuhuan people here. What should we do with these people? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and she looked thoughtful.


    This is the key.


    If tens of thousands of Wuhuan people can not settle down well, it is bound to have a huge impact. Moreover, tens of thousands of people have been detained, and countless grains will be consumed every day.


    Pang Tong had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, it''s a disaster to keep these prisoners. If we don''t kill Wuhuan, there will be disaster for him. So I think we can kill Wuhuan people as much as possible. "


    He has always been very strong towards foreigners like Wuhuan.


    Therefore, Pang Tong proposed to kill the prisoners.


    After all, it''s an alien.


    Not the people of Daqin.


    Even if Zhang Xiu killed, no one in the whole Qin Dynasty would accuse Zhang Xiu of killing too much. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s killing will only arouse the common people''s resonance and make them cheering.


    But Zhang Xiu is still thinking.


    To kill a prisoner is the easiest way. But the problem is that such a method is too crude, and even does not take advantage of the tens of thousands of Wuhuan people.


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s brain flashed a light.


    He had a plan.


    Now under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, because of the land reform, the aristocratic families were weakened, and countless people separated from the aristocratic families, resulting in the decrease of the population of the aristocratic families. But even though Daqin did not abolish slaves, in fact, slaves were the most scarce.


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is to treat the Wuhuan people as slaves.


    It also makes money.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and said, "Shiyuan, you should arrange someone to deliver the message to the cabinet immediately. I''m going to call together the businessmen in the world, or the powerful families in the world. Anyone who wants to buy Wuhuan slaves can come to Liucheng. I''m in Liucheng. I''m waiting for them to come and discuss the business of Wuhuan people. "


    "Ah


    When Pang Tong heard this, he exclaimed.


    He really didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu should come up with such a plan, that is, to buy and sell slaves.


    Pang Tong also knows that this is the best way.


    But the problem is that when the emperor of a country talks directly about the slave trade, he will be criticized. Therefore, Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, if the slave trade is put on the table, I''m afraid it will affect your Majesty''s reputation. Do you think it''s up to me to arrange this matter? I''ll take charge of it. "


    "No need!"


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said, "I will handle this matter myself. This matter will also be one of the national policies of Daqin in the future. I want to discuss with the world''s top businessmen. "

 Chapter 1120

    Su Puyan said: "king, under the current situation, it must be difficult for us to guard Bailang mountain. After all, we are not strong enough. So now, it''s evacuation. Quickly evacuate Bailang mountain to avoid fighting with Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Wu Yan said: "I also agree with the withdrawal. Our strength is not enough. Now we are fighting with Zhang Xiu. That''s a fight against a stone with an egg. Once we are all defeated, then Wuhuan will be completely finished. "


    Nanlou held a different opinion and said, "Your Majesty, it''s too frustrating to leave now. In my opinion, we can fight first and tentatively against Zhang Xiu''s army. Then, it''s not too late to evacuate. The general direction is to withdraw, but we can''t withdraw directly. Otherwise, I''m afraid that the people of Wuhuan''s warriors will lose heart and look down on the king. "


    Floor class listen to opinions, expression slightly hesitant.


    Su Puyan and Wu Yan''s opinions are quite agreed by Lou ban, but Lou ban also thinks that there is a certain truth in the difficult words. Dayton has been killed, and Wuhuan has lost Da Danyu. Under this premise, it is natural for Lou ban to take over Da Danyu.


    If he wants to be a Da Dan Yu, he must keep his image.


    You can''t lose your dignity.


    Therefore, this is the reason why the building class hesitated. If it wasn''t for Da Danyu''s position, he didn''t care about the evacuation.


    Su Puyan continued: "king, you can''t stay because of face. If we go to war with the Qin army, we may not be able to evacuate safely if we lose. It''s better to evacuate just in case. "


    "Yes, I think we should withdraw."


    Wuyan''s face was full of firmness. He thought it was extremely dangerous to stay.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another sentry rushed back.


    The sentinel came to Lou ban and reported: "Your Majesty, the big deal is not good. The Qin army is close to Bailang mountain, less than ten miles away from us. "


    "What?"


    Lou ban was shocked when he heard the speech.


    Qin army went to Liucheng County, how quietly, and then to Bailang mountain.


    Louban took a deep breath, calmed himself down and said, "now the Qin army has arrived near Bailang mountain. If we''re evacuating, I''m afraid it''s not as good as evacuating. After all, the other side has cavalry to kill, so it''s easy to catch up with our army. Now, it can only be the first World War. "


    Su Puyan said: "you can withdraw, but you can also ensure the withdrawal of the army. Although a part of the army will be covered up. But in order to save the army, it''s worth withdrawing. "


    "Newspaper!"


    And the sentinel Pegasus withdrew.


    The sentry came to louban quickly and reported again: "king, all the official roads near Bailang mountain are garrisoned by Qin army. Our retreat has been completely blocked. We have no way back. All the retreats have been blocked. "


    The look of Lou ban changed again and again.


    He is thinking about evacuating, but when it comes to the end, the way out is blocked.


    It''s impossible to evacuate.


    "Alas..."


    Lou ban sighed and said, "it seems that we don''t want to leave. In this war, we have to fight without it. Su Puyan, Wu Yan and Lou ban, gather troops for me and prepare for the first World War. We warriors of Wuhuan are not afraid of a battle. "


    So far, Lou ban can only fight.


    Since there is going to be a war, it''s going to be a fight to the death.


    Su Puyan and others, also no longer speak much. Now, they do not need to speak much. The three men immediately mobilized troops, tens of thousands of troops gathered together, one by one armed, ready for the first battle.


    But on Wu Huan Er Lang''s face, he was worried. Because the sentinel didn''t control the news when he reported it, all the soldiers in the army knew about the killing and the fall of Liucheng county.


    Time goes by little.


    In less than half an hour, the army led by Huang Zhong and Gan Ning had arrived. Even if the two left a large army to block the retreat of the four sides, the forces around them were no less than 60000.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led the troops forward and led the troops in formation.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes fell on the front and looked in the direction of Lou ban. He said in a loud voice, "Lou ban, I''m Huang Zhong. I''m called to attack you today. Now, Ben will order you to dismount and surrender. Those who fall will not be killed, and those who resist will not be forgiven! "


    Strong words come from Huang Zhong''s mouth.


    Gan Ning followed and raised his sword. He was ready to fight.


    Hearing Huang Zhong''s words, Lou Ban said with a sneer, "Huang Zhong, I''m Wu Huan Er Lang, who is good at fighting. If you want to fight, we will fight. If you want a war, we will accompany you to the end. "


    "The whole army is ready for war!"


    Huang Zhong gave a big drink and raised his long knife in his hand. For Huang Zhong, if Lou ban wanted to surrender, he would surrender. If louban does not surrender, he will defeat the other party directly.


    He has enough confidence.


    He is sure enough.


    He will win this battle!


    When the soldiers in the army were preparing for the first World War, Huang Zhong yelled: "kill!"


    "Kill


    Soldiers, shout.One by one, the soldiers took out their swords and went straight for Wuhuan''s army. At the same time, Huang Zhong and Gan Ning also led the troops. Louban immediately ordered his soldiers to fight.


    In the twinkling of an eye, they met and fought together.


    Huang Zhong takes the lead. He has already entered the crowd with his sword. Because of the opening of louban, Huang Zhong went straight to louban with a knife, intending to kill louban. As long as louban was killed first, the Wuhuan army gathered in Bailang mountain would no longer be a threat.


    But when Huang Zhong rushes to Lou ban, he sees Su Puyan holding a mace to stop him. Su Puyan was in his early thirties, when he was in his prime.


    When he followed Qiu Liju, he was a warrior of Wuhuan and a leader of Wuhuan.


    His bravery is well known in the army.


    Especially when Su Puyan saw that Huang Zhong''s temples were white and old, he didn''t pay attention to Huang Zhong. As soon as he got close to Huang Zhong, Su Puyan swung his mace and roared, "Huang Zhong, die!"


    There was a roaring sound on the mace.


    Huang Zhong is sneer, in the hand long knife from the air a wave, directly welcomed up.


    "Dang!"


    The blade and the mace collided together, making a piercing sound.


    Surge of power, then gush out.


    Su Puyan held the mace''s hand and was shocked by the power of peiran. In an instant, his face changed greatly. Because under the attack of this force, his palms were numb, even his mouth was numb.


    All the horses in his crotch were hissing.


    "Come again!"


    However, Huang Zhong was not affected at all. He swung his sword again. Between the lightning and flint, it has been cut down again. A knife fell, the knife light wash practice, even blocked Su Puyan''s retreat, make su Puyan avoid inevitable, can only bite the pain on the palm of the hand to meet.


    When the two weapons collided again, the mace in Su Puyan''s hand was knocked out in a flash, and his arms were a little crisp. It was Huang Zhong''s strength that made Su Puyan unable to resist.


    The blade goes on.


    The cold light fell from Su Puyan''s shoulder.


    "Yes


    The blade went into the flesh and directly broke Su Puyan''s shoulder. Even the whole upper part of his body was cut off. Under Huang Zhong''s rule, Su Puyan''s body was cut in two.


    Blood splashed down, Su Puyan''s body broke, and his internal organs fell with blood.


    It''s just two moves. Su Puyan was killed.


    Huang Zhong didn''t look at Su Puyan. He took the knife forward again and continued to rush to the position where Lou ban was. He will not give up until he kills louban.


    When Huang Zhong sprints, Lou ban also sees Su Puyan, who is killed, and his face turns pale. Su Puyan''s martial arts are recognized as the most powerful in the whole Wuhuan. However, Su Puyan was beheaded in front of Huang Zhong.


    It''s shocking.


    "Go away, go away!"


    Lou ban was frightened and roared.


    But the speed of Lou Ban''s retreat was not particularly fast. Urged by Huang Zhong''s fast horse, Huang Zhong killed Su Puyan cleanly, which scared many Wuhuan soldiers not to step forward. As a result, Huang Zhong''s body was empty about a foot in front of him.


    Huang Zhong galloped his horse to get closer to Lou ban, when the distance between the two sides was less than 20 steps. Huang Zhong took the knife in his left hand and wiped it with his right hand. Then he took out a short gun from his horse''s belly pocket and threw it directly.


    The short gun broke through the air, with a sharp whistling sound. In a twinkling of an eye, it came to the back of Lou ban.


    Puchi!


    A sharp short gun that pierces the horse''s buttocks.


    Under the severe pain, the horse ran wildly and bumped fiercely. Louban couldn''t keep his shape any longer. He was thrown off the horse''s back and fell to the ground with a bang.


    At this moment, the floor class unprecedented panic.


    It''s over!


    It''s in Huang Zhong''s hands.

 Chapter 1121

    Lou ban fell all over in pain. He wanted to stand up to escape, but the problem was that he couldn''t lift any strength because of the severe pain all over his body, so he could only watch Huang Zhong approach. But in the blink of an eye, Huang Zhong drove his horse to the front of Lou ban. Without hesitation, he cut off the sword in his hand.


    Floor class see this, immediately panic.


    "I surrender!"


    Lou ban shouts.


    When he saw that Huang Zhong did not surrender and imprison him, he immediately called for surrender. The next moment, Lou Ban''s eyes, but it emerged a look of horror, because that cut down the blade, never stop, is still indomitable.


    Huang Zhong has no pity for Lou ban, and he has no idea of surrender.


    Even Dayton is dead, not to mention louban.


    It is a disaster to leave the building class behind.


    "Poof!"


    Blade into the meat, directly cut down on the neck of Lou ban.


    A knife cut off, the head will roll out, with blood rolling a few times to stop rolling. Lou Ban''s body was convulsed twice, and then there was no movement, completely lost the breath.


    Huang Zhong killed Lou ban with a knife and exclaimed, "Lou ban is dead. Those who come down will not be killed!"


    "Lou ban is dead, those who come down will not be killed!"


    When the soldiers around saw this, they immediately cried out.


    "Lou ban is dead, those who come down will not be killed!"


    "Lou ban is dead, those who come down will not be killed!"


    More and more soldiers shout, the voice gradually gathered, as if the mighty torrent, reverberated in the air. After the sound spread, the Wuhuan soldiers under louban and Su Puyan were all worried.


    In fact, it''s not just Su Puyan who died.


    Together with Wu Yanning, they also died in the building. The leaders of the Wuhuan tribe under the command of the whole louban were killed and all of them died.


    Therefore, when Wu Huan soldiers heard Huang Zhong''s call for surrender, they no longer resisted, but threw away their weapons and surrendered. Wave after wave of Wuhuan soldiers knelt down like wheat waves and fell to the ground one by one, with a look of panic. They all fell down.


    There are a few who have escaped.


    Even if some people fled, there were soldiers arranged by Huang Zhong and Gan Ning on the official roads around them, so that even the escaped Wuhuan soldiers were all taken, and there were no escaped Wuhuan soldiers.


    The end of the battle lasted less than an hour.


    By noon, the results of the battle had been counted.


    In this battle, the number of Qin soldiers damaged was no more than 1500. However, more than 3000 Wuhuan soldiers died in the war, and more than 40000 of them surrendered, which is a complete victory.


    In fact, this is not a symmetrical battle.


    No matter the strength of the Qin army, the number of the Qin army, or the morale of the Qin army, they were far more than the Wuhuan people.


    On the contrary, it was the people of Wuhuan who were in a panic.


    Under such circumstances, fighting is unequal killing.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning led the army and escorted Wu Huan and his party to withdraw. Because of the slow speed of driving, the army returned to Liucheng county when it was nearly dark. The army entered and detained the new prisoners again.


    Nearly 100000 of Wuhuan''s prisoners were kept in separate custody.


    After all, there are too many people.


    Once all of them are held together, it is easy to breed chaos. Separate custody, even if some of the Wuhuan people want to flee, it is impossible to do so.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning came to the house and reported the results of the war after they met Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was overjoyed to hear that she had captured more than 40000 Wuhuan people.


    This is a gratifying achievement.


    There are nearly 100000 Wuhuan people, which is a very rich resource for the whole Qin Dynasty. Although wars are all money burning, in fact, the Wuhuan people, who have nearly 100000 people, can make profits from it.


    This is an opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "our army is stationed in Liucheng for the time being. For the time being, there will be no more troops. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning and Huang Zhong immediately respond.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, immediately send back the news of the great victory of the war to China, and order the cabinet to announce to the world, so that the people of the Qin Dynasty can celebrate."


    Pang Tong asked, "Your Majesty, what about Cao Wei in Liaodong?"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "for the time being, I don''t care about Cao Wei. I just need to get some information."


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said again, "send more royal guards spies to Liaodong to inquire about Cao Wei. In a war, we must know ourselves and the enemy. Only when we know the current situation of Cao Wei can we deal with it properly. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue solemnly responded.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t underestimate Cao Wei at all, because in Cao Wei, although Cao Cao, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and others are not included, in fact, Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and others, as well as Xia Hou family and Cao family''s generals are present.


    As long as these people are there, Zhang Xiu can''t relax her vigilance. As the saying goes, the lion fighting the rabbit, still need to go all out, in the face of Cao, Zhang Xiu must do enough preparation, and then not too late.As soon as the arrangements were made, Zhang Xiu stayed in Liucheng county and temporarily joined the army.


    In the east of Liucheng County, 200 miles away.


    It''s a mountain.


    This place is called Heishan. The mountain is not steep, but it is better than several miles.


    In Montenegrin, there is an army stationed.


    In this army, Cao ang is the leader, not others. This ambush Zhang Xiu, Cao ang is the imperial driver personally, ready to hand. Cao ang always wanted to avenge himself. He could not forget the hatred of XiahouDun''s death, the courage of Cao Cao''s death, and even more the courage of Dian Wei and others.


    Although Cao ang was in a corner, he never forgot to take revenge from the beginning to the end.


    He always wanted to kill back to the Central Plains.


    Because the ancestral land of the Cao family, because the root of the Cao family, is in the Central Plains.


    Guo Jia is also with Cao ang.


    He was with Cao ang.


    Today, Cao ang is over thirty years old. Normally, Cao ang is not old, but in fact, his temples are already white and have been stained by the wind and frost.


    It''s too much effort.


    Cao ang, Guo Jia and others are chatting, a sentinel quickly ran back. Sentry look in a hurry, hurried to Cao Ang''s side, is boxing salute.


    Cao ang couldn''t wait to say, "but I have already withdrawn from Liucheng county and come to the direction of Heishan?"


    "No!"


    The sentry shook his head and said, "tell your majesty, it''s not that Tatton withdrew from Liucheng County, but that Tatton in Liucheng county has died in the hands of the Qin army. In addition, the leaders of Wuhuan, such as louban, supuyan, Wuyan and Nanlou, were also killed. All the leaders of Wuhuan were killed. Wu Huan''s nearly 100000 troops were all captured. "


    Boom!!


    Cao Ang''s head exploded.


    In his mind, there was a moment of blank, more a moment of absence.


    Dayton''s dead!


    His plan failed again.


    Cao ang was originally prepared to join forces with Yu Dun to ambush Zhang Xiu in Heishan. But now, Zhang Xiu directly killed Tatton and Wu Huan, making Cao Ang''s plan completely defeated. If you want to ambush, you will never have a chance, let alone defeat Zhang Xiu.


    After Cao ang recovered, he said in a deep voice: "how did Zhang Xiu take Liucheng?"


    Cao ang knows about Liucheng.


    The most important thing is that there are nearly 100000 Wuhuan troops in Liucheng. No matter how useless Tatton is, it should not be defeated easily. But it happened that it was not long ago. Cao ang even speculated that at most it was the time when Tatton was ready to leave, but it happened that Tatton was defeated.


    The sentry replied, "Your Majesty, it''s very easy for the Qin army to break through Liucheng. At that time, only heard the South Gate of Liucheng a bang, the gate opened, the Qin army on the mighty into, then destroyed. As for louban and Wuyan, they were destroyed because louban left Liucheng and hid in Bailang mountain, but they were destroyed by the Qin army. "


    Immediately, the sentinel said about the withdrawal of louban.


    After hearing this, Cao ang sighed in his heart.


    Cao Ang''s heart, in particular, was on guard, because Zhang Xiu easily attacked Liucheng when it came to the siege, which was unexpected.

 Chapter 1122

    Cao ang turned to Guo Jia and said, "Sir, what do you think we should do under the current situation?"


    What''s happening now is unexpected. It must be impossible for Cao Wei to fight against Zhang Xiu again. After all, it is very difficult to compete with Zhang Xiu only by Cao Wei''s strength.


    Guo Jia also sighed.


    Once upon a time, heaven did not bless Cao Wei.


    Today, it is still heaven that does not protect Cao Wei.


    The original plan has been done, just waiting for the United Kingdom to ambush Zhang Xiu. But when it came to the end, everything changed. Cao Wei never sent a single soldier. When the whole army was ready to fight, the war was over.


    Guo Jiashen took a breath and said, "Your Majesty, now we have to withdraw quickly. We can''t resist the current Daqin. In particular, this time Zhang Xiu attacked the city, new means appeared. "


    "It''s something we didn''t know."


    "Once upon a time, when Zhang Xiu faced the strong city, she flew in with the help of a flying ball, so as to meet the needs of the inside and outside and break the city. But now, however, there are ghost like means, which directly make the gate collapse. "


    "It''s shocking."


    Guo Jia zhengse said: "we must find out this matter as soon as possible. If we don''t find out, the next time we face Zhang Xiu''s attack, we will definitely be unstoppable. In particular, if Zhang Xiu has destroyed Tatton, he must know our existence from Tatton''s mouth. Your majesty, the calm Liaodong is already on the verge of wind and rain. "


    Cao ang clenched his fist and said, "I''m not afraid of the first World War!"


    He actually wanted a war.


    For many years of development, Cao ang is for today, is to defeat Zhang Xiu, to revenge.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, it''s not suitable to fight Zhang Xiu in this situation. At least, we are not ready. Now that we''re gone, let''s get out of here. For the time being, we should avoid its edge and not fight head-on with Zhang Xiu. When I get back to Liaodong, I''ll think about the war with Zhang Xiu. "


    "Well, that''s the only way."


    Cao ang nodded in agreement with Guo Jia.


    Up to now, he has no other choice but to withdraw to preserve his strength.


    Immediately, Cao ang ordered the withdrawal.


    More than 60000 of Cao''s elite troops gathered together and left Heishan to Liaodong. For Cao ang, he can''t fight Zhang Xiu now, he can only retreat. But for Zhang Xiu, even if he has the strength of the first World War, but now he is not in a hurry to send troops, still arrange people to inquire about Liaodong carefully.


    As time goes by, July begins.


    The rest of the weather, if it is in the south, is still steaming, the whole earth like a steamer. But here in Liucheng, the weather in July is quite cool and comfortable.


    On this day, countless people appeared in Liucheng.


    All these people came to Liucheng.


    These people came for the slaves of Wuhuan in Liucheng. Before that, Zhang Xiu asked Wang Yue to send back the news about the slave policy. Although Xu Shu and others were reluctant to trade slaves in this way, Zhang Xiu''s strength was strong. Xu Shu and other cabinet officials could only follow Zhang Xiu''s decision and dispose of slaves according to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    Therefore, when Xu Shu spread the news, the whole aristocratic families, even the famous families, or businessmen, were all excited.


    Because the great families see the benefits.


    The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit.


    Everything is for profit.


    Innumerable families, innumerable big families, moved by the wind, like flies, constantly to the direction of Liucheng. This is long ago, in Liucheng, there are countless big family leaders.


    The news of these people''s appearance was soon inquired by the royal guards and spread to Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue directly spread it to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was happy to see this. Immediately, he arranged for people to announce that he would meet with the big families and businessmen who came to Liucheng at his residence on July 18. Anyone interested in the slave trade can come to the meeting.


    When this notice was put up, all the big families and businessmen were excited.


    This is what Zhang Xiu revealed.


    Everyone can go.


    Time flies. In a twinkling of an eye, it''s July 18.


    On this day, the house where Zhang Xiu stayed temporarily was already overcrowded, and countless people from different families gathered together, showing their excited faces. They all got the wind. In Zhang Xiu''s hands, there were nearly 100000 Wuhuan slaves. Once these slaves were bought, they could be used for many purposes, either as slaves of the family, or to help the family cultivate.


    In a word, it is harmful but not beneficial.


    Everyone gathered at the door, waiting quietly.


    When Zhang Xiu''s people arrived at the door, they called all the people to enter, and all the people of the big families or businessmen entered together. All the people gathered in the hall, whispering and talking.


    "Your Majesty is here!"


    All of a sudden, a loud voice came.With the sound falling, Zhang Xiu, dressed in a broad collar shirt, strides into the room. Today''s Zhang Xiu, as the king of a country, has been in a high position for many years, and already has a sense of dignity and bearing.


    As soon as he appeared, there was silence.


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu and move with her.


    When Zhang Xiu sits down, she looks around.


    Everyone saluted Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu waved the people to get up, then opened the door to the mountain and said, "I don''t want to repeat the purpose of asking you to come. To call you here this time is to discuss the slave trade. "


    "In my hands, there are 100000 Wuhuan slaves. So each of you can ask how many slaves you want to buy. Of course, among the slaves, there are the young, the slightly old and the slightly young, all of which are divided separately. "


    "So, the price is different."


    "Each of you offers to buy."


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said faintly: "next, it''s about the quotation. As for the rules of quoted price purchase, it''s basically like this... "


    At present, Zhang Xiu said the quotation. After explaining the rules of the slave trade and the lowest price, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first batch of slaves sold were 1000 people. All of them were young men in their early twenties and under thirty years old. If you make an offer, the one with the highest price will get it. "


    When they heard this, they all turned black.


    When looking at Zhang Xiu, they all secretly scold Zhang Xiu for being cunning, which is clearly intentional. They specially take it out to let them bid.


    It''s too cunning.


    But they had their own ideas about slaves.


    If you don''t, others will.


    If you don''t, others will.


    After all, there are no less than hundreds of merchants and families involved in the scene. On such a scale, one family can not get much if it is shared equally. In the end, they can not make much profit if they change hands to sell.


    "Your Majesty, this thousand young and strong, my Liu family give a thousand gold."


    In the crowd, someone came out to speak.


    His name is Liu Qin. He is the head of the Liu family in Chang''an. He is a big businessman. What the Liu family managed was the silk cloth business, which spread all over Daqin.


    The strength of the Liu family is quite extraordinary.


    When Liu Qin came to buy slaves, he would see the prospect of the slave trade. According to Liu Qin''s idea, he planned to buy slaves in large quantities, and then set up a slave trade to carry out the slave trade.


    Although one thousand gold is only one thousand brass, not one thousand taels of gold. But in fact, the average price of a slave is one gold, which is not bad. However, after Liu Qin''s words, another person came forward.


    "Master Liu, you are too stingy. This is not a thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, but a thousand young and strong, the most valuable labor force. One thousand gold is too little. I''ll give one thousand five hundred gold. "


    In the crowd, someone came out again.


    His name is Wei Xiong. He is from Jizhou. He was born in Jizhou and specializes in grain silk cloth business.


    In Jizhou, the strength of the Wei family is not weak.


    Moreover, there is overlap in the operation of the Wei family and the Liu family, so they are familiar with each other and there is a certain degree of competition.

 Chapter 1123

    Liu Qin''s face turned black as soon as he heard Wei Xiong''s words.


    He paid a thousand gold at a buy it now, which had already raised the price. He wanted to win the slave trade right at one time. However, Liu Qin didn''t expect that Wei Xiong was on the way to raise the price to 1500 gold, which was not a reasonable price. But in front of everyone, especially Zhang Xiu, Liu Qin couldn''t lose his face. He couldn''t recognize him at this time.


    Liu Qin clenched his teeth and said, "I''ll give you two thousand gold!"


    Wei Xiong couldn''t spare his face. After all, in front of everyone, especially Zhang Xiu, she said, "this is my convenience for you, because I believe that you have the strength to capture slaves. As for how you sell, it''s your business. I will not interfere. "


    "Your majesty


    In the crowd, someone was shouting.


    "Your majesty


    "Your majesty


    All the businessmen and the rich and powerful families were excited and chanted Zhang Xiu Shengming. Originally, they came to buy slaves in order to make profits. Up to now, Zhang Xiu has given a piece of good news. For all the businessmen and even the big families, this is a new way to make money.


    This is their chance.


    After Zhang Xiu announced the policy, she looked at the excited look on the faces of businessmen and families, and began to smile.


    This is what he wants to see.


    Because the power of these big families and businessmen turned to the outside and expelled their interests, the domestic situation would become more stable, which would be very good for the peace of the state of Qin.


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, she encouraged all of you to go and arrest the slaves. Finally, Zhang Xiu arranged a banquet for the businessmen and the leaders of the big family.


    After a banquet, all the people left separately.


    Everyone''s mood when they leave is filled with joy.


    It''s a good experience.


    With Zhang Xiu''s permission, they could then organize forces to go to the border of Daqin to capture slaves. Even if there are considerable risks, there are enough benefits under high risks.


    No one can ignore this.


    Zhang Xiu sits in the room, but is thinking about the matter of sending troops again.


    Now, we have to deal with Cao Wei.


    It was always a disaster for the Qin Dynasty to keep Cao ang on the Liaodong Peninsula. If Cao ang is not thoroughly solved, Zhang Xiu can hardly rest assured. It is the so-called side of the couch that does not allow others to snore. Zhang Xiu''s Daqin dominates all over the world, and it is impossible for Cao ang to exist all the time.


    "Newspaper!"


    An attendant came in and said, "Your Majesty, I beg to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the attendants went to inform him that Pang Tong strode in. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he sat down and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have carefully considered the war with Cao Wei in Liaodong and have a suggestion."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Pang Tong replied: "I think we can follow the way of his Majesty''s overthrow of Gongsun Zan in the past, blockade Liaodong, and forbid merchants to enter and leave Liaodong. No matter it''s food or goods, it''s all banned. "


    "As long as it''s the border, set up all the checkpoints. Without people going in and out, Liaodong is poor. Even if it can be self-sufficient for the time being, it will consume a lot of money for a long time. "


    "It''s nearly August now. Although the weather is not too cold, it will start to get cold in Liaodong at most one month later."


    "It''s not conducive to war."


    Pang Tong said: "first, weaken the economy of Liaodong and weaken the strength of Cao Wei. After the spring of next year, we will go into the army again, and then we can make a concerted effort to completely destroy Cao Wei. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s up to you."


    "Your majesty


    Pang Tong''s face more smile, according to his plan, can weaken Cao Wei a little bit, so as to reduce the loss of the Qin Dynasty.

 Chapter 1124

    Liaodong Peninsula, Lelang County, Korea city.


    This is the seat of Lelang county.


    At the same time, it was also the capital of Wei state. After Cao ang withdrew from the front line, he went straight back to the Korean city. Today, Cao ang is in control of Lelang County, Liaodong county and other places, as well as the Japanese nation in the south. But compared with Zhang Xiu''s strength, Cao Ang''s strength is still not enough.


    Imperial City, in the main hall.


    Cao ang was dressed in a black coronal dress and a towering crown.


    Below are Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu and others. The civil servants of the whole Cao Wei system, and even the military generals of Cao Wei, all gathered here, with a solemn look on their faces.


    Because Zhang Xiu led the army to destroy Wuhuan, it was already the border of garrison.


    Zhang Xiu''s army can be killed at any time.


    This is the worry of Cao Wei.


    In particular, the latest news came back that after several months in Liucheng, Zhang Xiu sold all the prisoners of Wuhuan and turned them into money.


    In fact, keeping prisoners in the army increases the burden. But the problem is that Zhang Xiu made a lot of money by buying and selling prisoners, so Zhang Xiu didn''t worry about logistics supply.


    Because Zhang Xiu has money.


    This is fundamental.


    Cao ang looked around the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on Xun Yu''s and Xun you''s faces, and finally said: "now Zhang Xiu''s troops are stationed at the border, and they are eyeing the Wei Kingdom, which will threaten the security of the Wei Kingdom at any time. What do you think, gentlemen?"


    Everyone''s face was frowning.


    After a long time, Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, in this situation, although our strength is slightly inferior to Zhang Xiu, in any case, we must fight against Zhang Xiu."


    "If you don''t fight and flee, the great Wei will never have a peaceful day."


    "Even if we are defeated, we must have a war."


    "Of course, even if it''s a war, we must be prepared. We can''t start a war without any preparation."


    Guo Jia looked solemn and said: "so my suggestion is to arrange the back road first, let the main personnel retreat first and go to Wuzhou to ensure that Lelang county has no worries. As for your majesty, he personally led his army to stay here, preparing to fight with Zhang Xiu. Only in this way can we advance, attack and retreat, and be invincible. "


    After hearing this, Cao ang nodded, looked around and asked, "what do you think?"


    "Your Majesty, I object!"


    At this point, one person came out against it.


    This person is no other than Cao Zhang.


    He is also the son of Cao Cao.


    Today, Cao Zhang is also very prestigious in Wei. After all, he is a patriarch and has excellent martial arts skills. In particular, today''s Cao Wei is always in a dangerous situation. Therefore, all Cao''s clans are highly valued, and Cao Zhang has a great reputation in the army.


    Cao ang said, "what''s your opinion, Ziwen?"


    Zi Wen, Cao Zhang''s character.


    Cao Zhang said: "Your Majesty, my Cao family has a foothold in Liaodong. Although we are in a corner, our strength is not weak. Especially in my Cao family, I never give up. When his father was alive, he fought to the end until he died. I Cao''s pulse, is also the same is not down. Why now, when we have a certain strength, we have to arrange the way back first? "


    "A fight is not only about the strength of soldiers, but also about the amount of money and food, the number of soldiers and their fighting consciousness."


    "Without a sense of fighting, this battle will not be fought."


    "When soldiers go to the battlefield, they will think that even if they are defeated, they still have a way out and are not afraid of defeat. In such a war, we are naturally at a disadvantage. "


    Cao Zhang''s face is slightly yellow, but his eyes are sharp. His sharp eyes, like a sharp knife, seem to penetrate people''s heart. With a flick of his big sleeve, he said: "if you don''t have the courage to burn the boat and the determination to fight to the end, you can''t win with Zhang Xiu. So in this war, I don''t think it''s necessary to arrange the way back. "


    "Only in this way can we have the power of the first World War."


    "Only in this way can we die and have a chance of survival at the most critical moment."


    "In a word, I don''t agree with sending people out first."


    Cao Zhang looked around the crowd and said, "gentlemen, the blood of our father''s fight to the end is flowing in the blood of our Cao family''s descendants. They are not those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, nor those who are ready to retreat. We don''t want to retreat. "


    "I, Cao Zhang, am willing to fight to the death."


    He clenched his fist and waved in the air.


    "I, Cao Pi, am willing to fight to the death!"


    Then, Cao Pi also stood up. He said in a voice: "in the past, my father died in Yanzhou, but I took a group of brothers to leave first and became a deserter. In this war, I, Cao Pi, am not retreating. I am willing to fight to the death. "


    Cao Pi is now nearly thirty years old.


    At the age of thirty, Cao Pi was also extremely belligerent. He watched the failure of Cao''s foundation. He was extremely unwilling and wanted to reverse the failure of Cao."Your Majesty, Cao Zhi is willing to fight to the death."


    Cao Zhi came forward again.


    Cao Zhi is also in his early twenties. He is very slender, elegant, with a sword eyebrow. He is elegant and graceful, and has the demeanor of a good childe. But in this life, Cao Zhi is not a son of fortune, but a man of both literature and martial arts. He is not only talented, but also very good at martial arts.


    He also wanted to inspire Cao.


    Cao Zhi stood up with his head high and said, "Your Majesty, I''d rather fight to the death than flinch. I can''t be afraid of Zhang Xiu in my heart. I''m Cao ang, willing to fight to the death. "


    "Your Majesty, we are willing to fight to the death."


    In the crowd, the rest of the Cao clan, as well as the Xiahou family, all stood up to fight.


    Everyone was impassioned.


    Everyone is fighting.


    They are not afraid of Zhang Xiu. They want to fight and dare to fight.


    This is Cao Wei Er Lang.


    Cao ang listened to the people. Some of them were his elders, others were his brothers, and they were all relatives of his own family. Now, listening to people''s words, Cao Ang''s heart is impassioned, and his blood is boiling.


    In his heart, there was a sense of war.


    I''m not going to arrange a retreat.


    Ready to fight to the death.


    "Your Majesty, I have something to say."


    Just when Cao ang is ready to fight to the death, he sees Cheng Yu stand up. Today, Cheng Yu is more than 70 years old and the oldest minister in the court.


    In this era, it is extremely rare to be 70 years old. In particular, Cheng Yu had been following Cao Cao for a long time and was an old minister. Moreover, Cheng Yu put the interests of the great Wei first in everything. In the great Wei Kingdom, Cheng Yu had a high prestige.


    Cao ang also respects Cheng Yu.


    But see Cheng Yu in the hand leaning on crutches, slightly bent back to stand out, bow to Cao ang salute.


    Cao ang said, "Mr. Zhong De, you don''t have to salute or stand. You are old enough to sit down and talk."


    Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "the ceremony can''t be abolished."


    After a pause, Cheng Yu continued: "after hearing what Mr. Zhang said just now, I felt excited. In particular, the words of a group of young masters are more gratifying. If the former Emperor was alive, it would be gratifying to see that all the young masters had such courage. The spirit of the former Emperor is also very proud. "


    "Because of Cao, there are no cowards."


    "Cao Wei Erlang is a man of lofty character."


    Cheng Yu talks with great eloquence. His voice is a little hoarse and his speaking speed is not slow. But his words are very important. When Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi hear it, they look at Cheng Yu with praise and awe in their eyes.


    They are not afraid of death.


    Cao Jia''er Lang, who is proud, is not afraid of death, but also dares to fight.

 Chapter 1125

    Cheng Yu''s old cheek has been full of folds, a face immersed in too many years of vicissitudes, but also witnessed countless magnificent. His eyes are deep and vast, and even deeper. It''s just that Cheng Yu has seen too much, so he doesn''t think that shrinking back is a bad thing, because the short-term shrinking back is for the next better counterattack.


    Of course, he also appreciated the character of Cao Wei''s children.


    As a descendant of Cao Cao, it should be so.


    That''s not to lose Cao Cao.


    Cheng Yu said slowly, "I agree with you when you ask for a fight. I wish I was a few decades younger. Then I went to the battlefield with you with my sword."


    "No one is old."


    "We can''t lift our swords, we can only wave flags and shout in the rear."


    "It''s reasonable to say that an old man like me, whose neck is buried in the earth, is not suitable to discuss whether to fight. But I still want to say it. "


    Cheng Yu said: "when the former Emperor was alive, facing Zhang Xiu, on the one hand, he dared to fight, on the other hand, he arranged his way back. Because war is not something that can be achieved overnight, let alone solved at one time. "


    "War is a long fight."


    "One victory or defeat is not enough to explain or decide a war."


    "So at any time, we have to arrange the way back."


    Cheng Yu said slowly: "Zhang Xiu''s army is already stationed at the Liaodong border, and may be killed at any time. If we can win, then Cao Wei can not only save, but also have the chance to counterattack. But if you lose, once you leave all your strength in Liaodong and Lelang county. Once you lose, you bet everything on it, and you have no chance. "


    "I''m old and I don''t have the youthful spirit of young people, so when I think about things, it''s hard to avoid looking forward and backward."


    "Please, your majesty."


    "But I don''t think that after the arrangement of the back road, the soldiers in the army will lose their will to fight. I, Cao wei''erlang, dare to fight and fight at any time and in any situation. "


    Cheng Yu folded his hands and solemnly said, "please judge the words from the bottom of my heart."


    When Cao ang heard this, he frowned.


    Previously, Guo Jia suggested to arrange the future, but now Cheng Yu is the same. Cao ang and even Guo Jia and Cheng Yu''s temperament, whether Guo Jia or Cheng Yu, were the pillars of the state of Wei. They were all dedicated to the great Wei.


    They are not people who are greedy for life and afraid of death.


    This kind of person, mentioning the suggestion of arranging the way back, is also for the sake of the great Wei state.


    Originally, when Cao ang heard what Cao Pi and Cao Zhi said, his heart was boiling with blood and ready for the first World War. However, after listening to Cheng Yu''s words, a cavity of blood gradually cooled down, but there was more thinking in his eyes.


    He is inclined to Cheng Yu.


    The back roads should be arranged.


    According to the art of war, a general should not worry about winning, but about losing first, so he can win a hundred battles. In particular, Cao ang and Zhang Xiu''s war, the strength is not equal, in such a premise, do not consider the retreat, that is to cut off their own back, but also their own death.


    When Cao Zhang heard Cheng Yu''s words, he was not moved. He said in a loud voice, "Mr. Zhong De, I know what you said. However, it is better to fight a war than to linger or run away in a panic. If you want to fight, you will fight with vigour; if you want to die, you will die with vigour. I, Cao Zhang, would rather die than live. "


    Cheng Yu said: "Mr. Zhang''s words are too extreme. If Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty in the past, did his best to fight Xiang Yu like Zhang Gongzi, and committed suicide after losing the first World War, then there would be no such thing as the Great Han Dynasty for hundreds of years. Because Liu Bang can defeat repeatedly and endure humiliation constantly, he can finally turn the tables and turn the situation around. "


    "There are so many reasons."


    "There have been many since ancient times."


    "It is even said that if King Gou Jian of Yue was defeated in the first World War, he would commit suicide instead of bearing humiliation. How could he have revenge later, such as destroying Wu state and killing fuchai."


    Cheng Yu tone slightly severe, said: "it''s not easy to bear humiliation. It''s easy to die, but not to live. It has been so many years since the founding of the great Wei state. We can''t go to extremes easily. As long as there is a chance, we can''t give up. "


    "We should strive for opportunities on the front line."


    "The battle with Zhang Xiu is a chance to survive."


    "The arrangement of the back roads is also a chance for the survival of the great Wei state."


    "It''s all about survival."


    Cheng Yu''s eyes were sharp and he continued: "especially the people who died in the war are heroes. It''s easy to choose. But actually, it''s not easy for people to survive. Mr. Zhang, please think twice. "


    Cao Zhang''s cheeks twitched.


    He wants to fight for the first World War. Unexpectedly, Cheng Yu''s words refute him so much that he can''t refute them.


    "What Mr. Zhong De said is true."


    When Cao Zhang heard this, he didn''t insist on it any more, so he said, "if that''s the case, we''ll do it according to Zhong De Gong. This time I''m going to fight Zhang Xiu, I''m going to arrange for people to go back to Wozhou, but I''m going to stay and fight with Zhang Xiu. "The Japanese state is actually the Japanese state.


    After Cao ANGFA captured the state of Japan, he changed his name to the state of Japan. In particular, in recent years, Cao ang arranged people to continuously develop the Japanese nation and found a lot of resources. In particular, the original local strength of the Japanese was not strong, so it was relatively easy for Cao ang to send people to govern.


    It''s not too much effort.


    In fact, Cao Ang''s strength in Wo Zhou is not weak.


    Hearing Cao Zhang''s words, Cheng Yu stroked his beard under his jaw and showed satisfaction on his face. Today, Cao Zhang has a high prestige in the army. Once Cao Zhang insisted on fighting to the death, it was very dangerous for the state of Wei. Now that Cao Zhang has changed his attention, the morale of the army will not be turbulent.


    When Cao ang saw this, he looked at the rest of Cao''s children who were fighting. They all saw that Cao Zhang had changed his mind, especially Cheng Yu''s words. They all changed their mind. They didn''t insist on blocking the way back. They all thought that they could arrange the way back first. But every Cao''s child said that they wanted to stay and fight to the death Some are willing to retreat.


    Cao Ang''s son, the prince of the great Wei Kingdom, led some of them to withdraw first.


    This is equivalent to protecting the whole country.


    After everything was settled, Cao ang was relieved. Now he was ready to fight again. He would be ready to meet Zhang Xiu for a while.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, soldiers entered outside the hall.


    After saluting Cao ang respectfully, the soldier handed over a letter, which was the latest one from the sentinel.


    Cao ang took the letter, opened it and scanned it quickly. When he finished reading the letter, his face was quite solemn, so he ordered: "Mr. Zhong De, Zhang Xiu has not sent troops for the time being, but has taken action."


    After that, Cao ang handed the letter to Cheng Yu.


    After Cheng Yu finished reading it, he looked even more solemn, and Cheng Yu handed the letter to Xun Yu for everyone to browse one by one.


    When everyone finished watching it, they were all dignified.


    The situation is not optimistic.


    The message mentioned in the letter is that Zhang Xiu has carried out an economic blockade, forbidding the merchants of Daqin from transporting goods into Liaodong. As a result, Liaodong could not be as rich in materials as before.

 Chapter 1126

    Cao ang looked around the crowd and said, "ladies and gentlemen, tell me how to solve this problem?"


    Xun Yu said: "under the current situation, Zhang Xiu has adopted the blockade, which is a great challenge for the great Wei Dynasty. Even with the blockade of materials, local prices will change. Today''s war is different from the past. In this war, we should first stabilize the country. If we can''t stabilize domestic prices, if we can''t stabilize prices, then the great Wei will collapse. "


    "In the past, Gongsun Zan of the state of Yan was like this."


    "In the face of Zhang Xiu''s blockade, the prices of the state of Yan soared, and the people were turbulent. In particular, the withdrawal of the merchants made the whole Yan people very hard to live, and it was extremely difficult for the people to buy materials. "


    "We will face the same situation."


    Xun Yu said in a deep voice: "so now, we must deal with it carefully. If you don''t handle it well, you will lose to Zhang Xiu. "


    As the chief steward of Wei state, Xun Yu was mainly responsible for the operation of government affairs.


    He is worried about the instability of people''s livelihood.


    This is the biggest problem.


    Guo Jia''s eyes flashed a grim look and said, "Your Majesty, the state of Wei is not the state of Yan. If the people''s livelihood of the state of Wei was in turmoil, it would follow. So now, I urge your majesty to keep a close watch on Liaodong and Lelang county. Anyone who hoards food will be killed. There is no amnesty for those who bid up prices. There is no amnesty for those who intend to stir up trouble. In a word, it is better to kill the wrong than to let it go. Only in this way can the situation be stabilized. "


    "I agree!"


    Xun you agreed.


    "I agree!"


    Cheng Yu also agreed.


    "I agree!"


    "I agree!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the courtiers, whether civil or military, agreed with Guo Jia''s proposal. Under the current premise, the only way to stabilize the situation is to take such a bloody means.


    Cao ang didn''t object, so he agreed to let Guo Jia take charge of it.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a valet entered.


    The servant quietly went to Guo Jia''s side and handed over a letter.


    Guo Jia opened the letter and looked at it. After reading it, his brow rose and his face turned cold. When he waved his hand to ask the servant to step down, he looked at Cao ang and reported: "Your Majesty, whatever you say will come. In Lelang County, there are people who do not sell grain and bid up prices. Please have a look at the specific list. "


    Then he handed the letter.


    Cao ang took it and quickly scanned it. His face was extremely cold and fierce. He bit his teeth and said, "these people are really damned! You know, I have a lot of support for these people. In particular, the Gongsun family and the Pu family were the big merchants in Lelang county. At the beginning, in order to make Lelang county more prosperous, we gave them more support and let them expand. But I didn''t expect that the Gongsun family and the Pu family, one of which doesn''t sell grain, and the other of which drives up prices, would turn over their faces faster than their books! "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, what should we do with these people?"


    "Kill


    Cao ang spoke flatly.


    Although he didn''t have Cao Cao''s courage, let alone Cao Cao''s skill, Cao ang still had great courage, acted decisively, and had no women''s benevolence.


    Guo Jia arched his hand and said, "I will take orders!"


    Cao ang said, "go


    Guo Jia turned around and stepped down, while the other courtiers left one after another, busy with their own affairs.


    Because next, we have to arrange the evacuation.


    If Lelang county can''t keep it, it must leave Liaodong and Lelang county.


    After Guo Jia left the Imperial City, he took a group of imperial guards and went straight to Gongsun''s house in the city. The Gongsun family is a merchant family and a member of Liaodong county. When Cao ang retired to Lelang County, the Gongsun family gave Cao ang a lot of information, so Cao ang supported the Gongsun family.


    The Gongsun family is mainly engaged in grain business.


    This is related to people''s livelihood.


    Especially in Liaodong and Lelang County, because of Cao Ang''s support, the Gongsun family is the largest shop in grain management, with huge daily shipment. Once Gongsun''s shops stop selling grain, the price of grain in Lelang county will rise a lot.


    The owner of Gongsun''s family is gongsunzhi.


    This man talked about the relationship with the late Gongsun Zan of the state of Yan, as well as some other relationships, all of which came from the Gongsun family. However, although Gongsun Zhi and Gongsun Zan share the same vein, in fact, their relationship is also very distant, so they just have some relationship.


    When Guo Jia arrived at Gongsun''s house, the door of Gongsun''s house was closed.


    Guo Jia sneered at this.


    Gongsun Zhi doesn''t sell grain, but also thanks guests behind closed doors. What is he doing? Is he ready to welcome Zhang Xiu?


    As soon as Guo Jia waved his hand, some soldiers knocked on the door.


    Soon the door opened.


    The porter came out and looked at Guo Jia and his party. He looked calm and said, "my Lord, who are you looking for?"


    Guo Jia said: "my official Guo Jia, let Gongsun Zhi come out to see me."When the porter heard this, he didn''t feel surprised. He didn''t show any fear. He said humbly: "tell Lord Guo that the master of the family left two days ago and went to Japan to find the food producing area, in order to increase the food supply. During this period, the owner is not at home. Please forgive me


    Guo Jia sneered.


    He was in charge of the intelligence system of the state of Wei and knew everything about Lelang county.


    Gongsun Zhi was still there yesterday. How could he have left.


    This is a word of evasion.


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "since Gongsun Zhi is not here, it''s just the right time for me to take Gongsun''s family first. Come, immediately seal up Gongsun family, Gongsun family should be a person, all custody, pressure into Tingwei house pending trial


    When the porter heard this, his face changed greatly.


    He wants to open his mouth to stop, but Guo Jia waves his hand, and the guard has directly broken in.


    "Wait a minute!"


    At this moment, a cry came from the hall.


    I saw a big figure come out.


    This man is no other than Gongsun Zhi. He was a big, cunning man. Gongsun Zhi''s face was embarrassed and helpless, because in fact, he wanted to avoid it, but he didn''t expect that Guo Jia would directly order to attack Gongsun''s family.


    Under this premise, Gongsun Zhi had to come out.


    He can only stand up.


    Gongsun Zhi bowed his hand to Guo Jia and said, "Guo situ, what''s wrong with my Gongsun family? I want to directly seal up the Gongsun family and put the Gongsun family in prison."


    Guo Jia said with a smile, "don''t you know why I came here?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Gongsun Zhi shook his head.


    But Guo Jia was unwilling to explain more, and said, "since you don''t know, go to Tingwei''s house with me. Then you may know. If you don''t talk about it in Gongsun''s house, you can only talk about it in Tingwei''s house. "


    "Come on, take it!"


    Guo Jia ordered directly.


    Gongsun Zhi''s face changed greatly, because Guo Jia was completely unreasonable, and he was totally direct. Under such a premise, even if Gongsun Zhi wants to protect himself, there is no way. When the soldiers came forward, Gongsun Zhi wanted to escape, but he had no way to escape. He had to be detained.


    Gongsun Zhi changed his mind and roared: "Guo situ, I''m wrong. My Gongsun family is willing to help your majesty with all their strength and to live and die together with the state of Wei. My Gongsun family is willing to donate all the grain for your majesty to stabilize the situation. "


    In fact, Gongsun Zhi really wanted to stop selling food and then take advantage of it.


    I didn''t expect to be cleaned up.


    Gongsun Zhi didn''t expect this.


    Guo Jia laughed and said: "there is no regret medicine in this world. Since you have made a choice, it can''t be retrieved. The Gongsun family has been removed from the list since today. "


    "Take it away!"


    Guo Jiada ordered.


    The soldiers directly took Gongsun Zhi away, and Gongsun''s family was sealed up, and Gongsun''s people were taken away.


    The materials of Gongsun''s family were also seized.


    After Guo Jia dealt with the Gongsun family, he took the people around him and went back to the park family.


    The next step is to deal with the park family.

 Chapter 1127

    The park family is from Lelang county.


    He is a local businessman.


    The owner of the Pu family, named Pu Renfeng, deals in cloth, silk, tea and salt. Cloth, silk, tea and salt are very important materials.


    When it comes to wealth, the Pu family is no less wealthy than the Gongsun family, even more so.


    What Pu Renfeng is doing now is driving up prices.


    He wants to make money.


    He wants to earn more.


    Therefore, Pu Renfeng kept raising prices, intending to profit from the war.


    Park family, residence.


    In the study.


    Park Renfeng sat cross legged, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about business.


    In front of Pu Renfeng, there was a middle-aged man of medium height with two beards under his lips. His name is Xia Shang. He is not only the commander of Park Renfeng, but also the person in charge of the business operation of the park family.


    Xia Shang zhengse said: "master, because of the economic blockade, we bid up prices. Now, in this case, although it makes more money, it is not good if it is suppressed by the imperial court. "


    "Suppression?"


    Pu Renfeng opened his squinted eyes and said in a voice: "our park family is in Lelang County, and even the whole area of Wei Kingdom, which is very important. Once the Pu family falls down, the whole great Wei will be affected to a certain extent. After all, in the hands of the Pu family, they also control the sale of salt, which is very important to the great Wei Dynasty. "


    Xia Shang said: "even so, what if the imperial court wants to go out and mess?"


    "No way!"


    Pu Renfeng''s big sleeve flicked and answered categorically.


    For park Renfeng, he didn''t think Cao ang would attack the park family. Because since Cao ang entered Lelang County, he has been carrying out the policy of benevolence and recuperation.


    Just like this, Pu Renfeng thinks that Cao ang can''t attack the Pu family.


    Seeing this, Xia Shang suddenly raised his eyebrows.


    He thinks that park Renfeng is too confident. The court is not a good man or a good woman.


    Xia Shang zhengse said: "master, I think we should consider the worst result. In case, the imperial court really wants to deal with our Pu family? At that time, the park family can''t resist it. "


    Park Jen Feng laughed and said, "you worry too much."


    Xia Shang frowned and said solemnly: "in everything, we should consider the future. Even the relationship between the court and the Pu family is good. After all, it''s easy to drive up prices


    "You''re worrying."


    Park Renfeng spoke again.


    For park Renfeng, he doesn''t think there will be any crisis in the park family.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the housekeeper of the park family came in.


    The housekeeper looked solemn and said, "master, there are a lot of officers and soldiers outside the mansion. The leader was Guo Jiaguo situ of the imperial court. Guo Jia asked people to meet him at the door. Something important was announced. "


    After hearing this, Xia Shang''s face changed slightly.


    Here we go!


    Here it is!


    After hearing this, Pu Renfeng also looked solemn, because just now, he was confident that he would not be liquidated by the imperial court. The reason is very simple. It''s his business to do business. He is willing to sell at a high price, but the imperial court can''t control him.


    But here comes Guo Jia.


    Park Renfeng took a deep breath, suppressed the panic in his heart, and already stood up and said: "Guo situ is here. I''m sure he can''t get rid of it. Now, we can only go to meet. Xia Shang, let''s go and see Guo situ. "


    "Here it is


    Xia Shang got up and went out with Park Renfeng.


    When they came to the outside of the residence, they met Guo Jia. Pu Renfeng went forward and said, "Guo situ, long time no see. I don''t know what happened when Guo situ brought people to my house today? "


    Guo Jia said: "the price of salt, cloth, silk and tea has risen."


    Pu Renfeng frowned slightly and said, "Guo situ, now the border of Wei state is blocked, so it''s hard to enter ordinary materials. As a result, prices have risen. In fact, this is quite normal. I don''t know what Guo situ''s advice is for this matter? "


    Guo Jia said, "you bid up prices. What do you want to say?"


    Park Renfeng said again: "Guo situ, I have just explained. The border of the state of Wei was blocked, and the goods from outside could not enter, so the prices rose. This is a very normal thing. "


    Guo Jia said, "are you sure?"


    "That''s true," said park Renfeng


    "Since you insist on saying that, I have nothing to say," Guo said


    "Come on, take park Jen Feng."


    As soon as Guo Jiada''s sleeve was brushed, some soldiers came forward.


    This scene shocked Pu Renfeng. He didn''t expect that Guo Jia would start a fight if he didn''t agree.


    Pu Renfeng said, "Guo situ, it''s really inappropriate for you to do something if you don''t agree with me."


    Guo Jia said, "take it!"Park Renfeng said: "Mr. Guo, you are a bit overbearing. My reasonable price increase, but you are directly to arrest people, which is not in line with the law of the great Wei state


    Guo Jia said with a sneer, "let''s talk about right and wrong at Tingwei''s house."


    "I''m not convinced," said park


    Guo Jia said: "I don''t care whether you are convinced or not. Now, I''m just on a mission. "


    "Come on, take Pu Renfeng!"


    Guo Jia ordered directly.


    With the action of the soldiers, park Renfeng didn''t even have the chance to struggle and was taken directly. Park Renfeng''s constant struggle is also a constant plea for mercy. Unfortunately, Guo Jia is indifferent.


    After Guo Jia took park Renfeng, he immediately sealed up the park family.


    Although the park family is a big family.


    It''s more business and has considerable strength.


    But in fact, in front of the great Wei state, the little strength of the Pu family was not enough, and even had no chance to resist, so they were directly won.


    The whole park family was destroyed.


    After Guo Jia returned with the people, he directly sent Park Renfeng and Gongsun Zhi to Tingwei''s house. Soon after, a notice came out from Tingwei''s house that park Renfeng was suspected of driving up prices, Gongsun Zhi was suspected of hoarding grain, and he colluded with Daqin to work for Daqin.


    Therefore, they killed Pu Renfeng and Gongsun Zhi, and sealed up the Pu family and Gongsun family.


    The two were taken directly.


    When the news came out, the whole territory of the great Wei kingdom was in an uproar. Because the Gongsun family and the Pu family are the big families of the great Wei state. Even these two families were taken, and the rest of the families who had ideas in their hearts but didn''t implement them dare not act rashly.


    They were scared.


    After all, Gongsun Zhi and park Renfeng were killed, not to mention others.


    Originally, people''s hearts were floating, and even prices began to soar, but also because of the iron and blood means of the great Wei state, they completely stabilized. Those who want to bid up prices dare not bid up prices any more. Those who want to take advantage of the opportunity to make profits dare not act rashly any more.


    The whole Liaodong county and Lelang county were settled.


    Everything will be stable.


    After Cao ang stabilized the internal situation, he spread the news again, guided the public opinion, stabilized the people of Liaodong and Lelang County, publicized that Zhang Xiu wanted to kill the people, and guided the public opinion against Zhang Xiu.


    In addition, Cao ang was also actively preparing for the first World War.


    Now the state of Wei, from top to bottom, is ready for war. In particular, Cao Ang''s next of kin has retreated, leaving only those who want to fight to the death, so the whole Wei Dynasty is filled with the atmosphere of the coming war.

 Chapter 1128

    Zhang Xiu is now in Liucheng. Her life is quite easy. After all, it does not involve the government affairs. She only needs to know the information she sent. Huang Zhong and Gan Ning are responsible for the army stationed in Liucheng, and Zhang Xiu doesn''t need to worry about it.


    Zhang Xiu has nothing to do, so she strolls around Liucheng. In a short period of time, Zhang Xiu is very familiar with the streets of Liucheng and the surrounding mountains and rivers.


    As time goes by, October comes.


    At the end of autumn in October, the weather in Liucheng has changed and it is rather cold. When you touch the water with your hand, you already feel cold and piercing, which makes you very uncomfortable.


    This is exactly the difficulty of using troops in the north.


    Once it''s winter, it''s freezing. It''s hard for the soldiers stationed in the north.


    Fortunately, in Zhang Xiu''s army, there is a sufficient supply of coal.


    Soldiers can keep warm.


    Don''t worry about the impact of the cold.


    This day, Zhang Xiu residence, Wang Yue is in a hurry to enter. Although the weather is rather cold, Wang Yue''s clothes are not thick, and there are not many clothes. Although he is old, his body is excellent, so he doesn''t feel very cold.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, the latest news about Cao ang is coming back."


    Zhang Xiu said, "say it!"


    Wang Yue said: "in Liaodong county and Lelang County, the price turbulence originally caused by economic blockade has been suppressed by Cao ang. Please read the details. "


    Immediately, Wang Yue handed the letter.


    In this letter, it is recorded that Guo Jia visited the PU and Gongsun families and directly destroyed the grain price.


    It also recorded the situation that other merchants did not dare to act rashly.


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, her brow slightly wrinkled.


    In Zhang Xiu''s plan, it is hoped that through the economic blockade, the prices of Liaodong and Lelang counties will be completely disrupted, resulting in soaring prices, rising grain prices, and even no market for grain.


    Unexpectedly, Cao ang was so decisive this time that he directly asked Guo Jia to set an example to others. As a result, the merchants in Liaodong and Lelang county were scared and did not dare to act rashly.


    "It''s interesting."


    Zhang Xiu murmured to himself, and there was a light in her eyes.


    For Zhang Xiu, he is not afraid of Cao angqiang.


    He is not afraid of the strong.


    On the contrary, because of Cao Ang''s decisiveness, as well as Cao Ang''s overbearing, Zhang Xiu felt some meaning. Just in this way, can stimulate Zhang Xiu''s fighting spirit, make Zhang Xiu is looking forward to the next fighting and fighting.


    Wang Yue bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, we have arranged for the royal guards in Lelang County, and we have got a piece of news."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Wang Yue said: "Cao ang not only occupied Liaodong and Lelang County, but also occupied the Japanese state further south, that is, the Japanese state in the population of Wei state. This time, Cao ang stayed to fight to death, but he had arranged to send away his family members and sent the prince of Wei, some of his relatives and some of his officials'' children to Wuzhou to avoid worries. "


    Zhang Xiu heard eyebrows rise, some accident.


    Japan, Japan!


    Isn''t this the place where the little devils are?


    Now it''s Japan.


    Historically, in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, the queen of Japan sent envoys to the Central Plains.


    Today, Cao ang has extended his influence to the state of Japan, and changed his name to the state of Japan. Thus it can be seen that Cao ang has captured the whole of the Japanese nation and occupied it for himself.


    The state of Japan is the sphere of influence of the state of Wei.


    After Zhang Xiu thought about it, she thought it was reasonable. Because it was not easy to cross the sea from Yangzhou to Japan. The relatively easy route is to cross the sea from Liaodong Peninsula to Japan.


    This is also the route for Japanese envoys to enter the great Sui Dynasty and even the great Tang Dynasty.


    It''s also the safest route.


    After all, in this era, warships are far from strong enough.


    But for Zhang Xiu, it''s not a complicated problem, because the warships of the Qin Dynasty are becoming stronger and stronger, and have the possibility of sailing on the sea.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu had never been angry, Wang Yue said again, "Your Majesty, today, Cao ang, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun you, Cheng Yu and other officials of the state of Wei are still in Lelang county. Cao ang has always been in the palace. As for Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others, although they are protected by guards, it is not difficult to assassinate them. "


    "Our royal guards are gathering more and more in Lelang county."


    "It''s not hard to kill them."


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, do you arrange people to assassinate these people? Once these people are killed, the state of Wei will be in danger, and it is impossible to maintain stability. "


    "No way!"


    Zhang Xiu flatly refused.


    He had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "even if the two countries are enemies, there is a certain bottom line. For example, we should not slaughter innocent people because they are innocent. Similarly, you can''t assassinate the other party''s officials. ""Although it can be assassinated."


    "But we can arrange people to assassinate Cao Wei''s officials. Similarly, Cao Wei can also arrange assassins to assassinate our people. Even if the royal guards are powerful, it is impossible to protect all the officials. "


    "If both sides have no bottom line to assassinate officials, they have already lost the bottom line."


    "No more scruples."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t want to see such a war. Therefore, if you mention the assassination, you don''t have to mention it any more. I won''t adopt it now and I won''t adopt it in the future. "


    When Wang Yue heard this, he hurriedly said, "if you have lost your word, please let your majesty confess."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and didn''t care.


    In fact, Wang Yue was also for the sake of the great Qin Dynasty and for the sake of solving Cao Wei''s problems quickly.


    But Zhang Shen didn''t want to be assassinated. You arrange to go to the royal guards in Lelang County, try to penetrate into the place, try to win over each other, whether the officials at the top or at the bottom, try to rebel against each other, so that the foundation of the state of Wei collapsed. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said again, "in addition, we will arrange people to spread the news. After the spring of next year, I will lead a large army to Liaodong and destroy Cao Wei. If Cao Wei is willing to surrender, I will not care about the past enmity, but will not grudge rewards. This news can be widely publicized, so that the subjects of the state of Wei can know my intention. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded again.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Wang Yue turned and stepped back.


    After Wang Yue returned to the government of the royal guards, he immediately arranged to go on. With the action of the royal guards, in a short period of time, the royal guards spread all over Liaodong and Lelang County, which is a quick action and also a dissemination of news.


    The state of Wei, which had been affected by the economic blockade but had stabilized, is now making waves again.


    Countless people are in a panic.


    Because Daqin is coming.


    In particular, the royal guards began to take action and constantly wooed officials. Although the mainstay of the upper Wei kingdom had never been defected, in fact, some of the officials of the lower Wei kingdom had begun to change the wind and began to fall to the Qin Dynasty.


    It''s not hard to guess.


    Because the state of Qin was powerful, and the state of Wei was too powerful.


    There is too much difference in strength between the two sides.


    It is also reasonable for the officials at the bottom to choose obedience in secret.


    As time goes on, the impact is growing.


    By the beginning of spring in February, the whole Liaodong and Lelang county had already had a floating heart. Because the news spread by the royal guards is that Daqin will send troops after the Spring Festival.


    In early February, certain news came out in Liaodong and Lelang counties.


    Zhang Xiu has sent troops.


    Zhang Xiu led nearly 100000 troops from Liucheng to Liaodong.


    In fact, the number of Zhang Xiu''s troops this time is about 100000. On the one hand, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong each have nearly 40000 troops, a total of 80000. With the accompanying auxiliary soldiers, the number of soldiers is indeed close to 100000.


    When the 100000 troops left Liucheng, they went straight to Liaodong.


    This time, Zhang Xiu vowed to destroy Cao Wei.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    In fact, the distance from Liucheng to Liaodong is not far. It''s only five days'' journey. Zhang Xiu''s army has reached the border of Liaodong county. Now in late February, although the weather is getting warmer in the south, it is still quite cold in the north. Therefore, the military officers and men''s clothing is still quite thick to resist the attack of the cold wind.

 Chapter 1129

    The place where Zhang Xiu led the army was called Changli County, which was once the seat of Liaodong county. However, after Cao ang conquered Liaodong, he directly assigned Liaodong county to Liaodong. Changli County is a big county.


    Today''s Changli County has gathered Cao Ang''s army.


    As early as the beginning of February, Cao ang had mobilized a large army to Changli County, ready to resist Zhang Xiu. This time Cao ang brought his troops to resist, he poured out all his troops, and mobilized nearly 100000 troops.


    This is all of Cao Ang''s property.


    Even, it''s putting everything together.


    The reason why Cao ang did this was to seek a chance of survival and win the war. As long as Cao Wei wins this war, he will be safe at least in the next year or two. For the state of Wei, the development time of one or two years is also quite critical.


    Changli County.


    Barracks, big accounts of the Chinese army.


    Cao angduan sits on the throne, and Guo Jia, Xun you, Cheng Yu and others sit below. As for Xun Yu, Chen Qun and others, they stayed in Lelang County, so as to stabilize the rear and prevent the rear from chaos.


    Cao ang looked around and said, "the army led by Zhang Xiu has entered Changli County. Ladies and gentlemen, how should we meet the enemy in this battle. Do you choose to attack on your own initiative, or do you want to defend Changli County? "


    "Your Majesty, I suggest you take the initiative."


    Guo Jia stood at the bottom and made suggestions.


    For Guo Jia, it''s not a good way to choose defense all the time. Especially according to the information he got, when Zhang Xiu broke Liucheng, he used a new weapon, which easily made the gate of Liucheng collapse.


    It''s not easy to stick to Changli County.


    It is better to attack than to do so.


    Cao ang said: "Sir, I suggest taking the initiative to attack. Then, how do we fight? When it comes to fighting with Zhang Xiu, it is well known that Zhang Xiu''s army has extraordinary strength. If we do not have a detailed plan, we are not suitable to take the initiative. If we want to take the initiative to fight against Zhang Xiu, we must have a careful operational plan. "


    Guo Jiayan said: "I should be like this!"


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "there is a mountain named Hengshan, 20 miles southwest of Changli County. Although the mountain is not steep, it lies on the official road leading to Changli County. In order to reach Changli County, we must look over Hengshan. It is impossible to get around Hengshan and reach Changli County. Our army can seize Hengshan first and build fortifications in Hengshan to compete with Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Cao ang looked at the others and said, "what''s the general will?"


    When they heard the words, they all thought about it carefully.


    A moment later, Xun you said, "I agree with the plan of using Hengshan to block Zhang Xiu''s army. But this time, if we want to use Hengshan to stop us, we must fight this war well. It will take at least three months for Zhang Xiu''s army to stay in Hengshan. So, when the weather gets hot, Zhang Xiu''s army can''t bear it. Maybe Zhang Xiu can withdraw. "


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard and said, "I''m thinking about whether Hengshan can be used as a barrier. In addition, send a mobile team to the rear of Zhang Xiu, in order to block the grain road of Zhang Xiu? Zhang Xiu came from a long way, and the grain road must not be easy. As long as they continue to destroy each other''s grain supply, Zhang Xiu''s grain supply will not be in a hurry and he will not be able to stay in Hengshan all the time. "


    "You can have a try."


    Guo Jia nodded, but he didn''t have much hope.


    After all, Zhang Xiu can''t sit back and watch the crisis of grain supply.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is not good at it.


    The rest of the people, too, all agreed with the plan.


    Seeing that the proposal was approved, Cao ang said, "since there are no opinions, let''s take action. Guo Jia, listen to the order


    "I''m here!"


    Guo Jia arched her hand and answered.


    Cao ang said: "you are fully responsible for commanding this battle and dispatching the generals in the army. My officers and men of Cao Wei are all under your command. "


    "Yes, sir


    Guo Jia should bow his hand.


    After Guo Jia responded, Cao ang took out the seal ribbon and the arrow and handed them to Guo Jia.


    In this way, Guo Jia is right.


    Guo Jia stood up, looked around the crowd and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Liao!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Zhang Liao stood up immediately.


    Among the generals of the Wei Dynasty, Zhang Liao is now convinced by his own ability. Even though he was once a subordinate of Lv Bu, and even though Lv Bu had been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao was highly valued in the Cao Wei army.


    Guo Jia took out the map, pointed to the location of Hengshan in Changli County, and said: "if Zhang Xiu''s army wants to read Hengshan and reach Changli County, it must pass through Hengshan official road. As a pioneer, you led 20000 elite soldiers to Hengshan, dug ditches, built fortifications, and prepared to resist Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    "Here it is


    Zhang Liao''s fist should be thrown.


    Guo Jia once again said, "Cao Zhen listens to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"Cao Zhen stepped forward and saluted.


    Cao Zhen was once captured by Zhang Xiu because of the battle in Nanyang County. Later, when he was in Xudu, he was humiliated by Zhang Xiu. Cao Zhen hated Zhang Xiu to the bone.


    Even though he was snubbed by Cao ang for dealing with Zhang Xiu, with the fall of many generals in Cao''s family, Cao Zhen was still in high position. After all, Cao also lacked generals.


    And Cao Zhen has a certain talent.


    Guo Jia said, "Cao Zhen, you lead 3000 soldiers to escort the defense equipment, bows and arrows, Tribulus terrestris and other equipment to Hengshan. All instruments must be delivered as soon as possible, without delay. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Cao Zhen immediately responded.


    Guo Jia looked at the rest of the army and issued orders. As the orders were issued, the generals in the army got orders one after another and had their own tasks.


    "Go ahead!"


    With a wave of Guo Jia''s hand, the generals left.


    After the generals left, only Guo Jia, Xun you and Cheng Yu were left in the hall.


    Cao ang looked around the three men and said, "Mr. Guo, Mr. Xun, Mr. Zhong De Gong, this battle is very important. Now that everyone is busy, I''m going to go to the front line with the forbidden army and tiger and leopard riding. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty doesn''t have to be like this. You just need to be in Changli County."


    "No!"


    Cao ang shook his head and said, "if you don''t go to the front line, you will never know the latest situation on the front line. What''s more, when I go to the front line, I can also boost the morale of the soldiers and make them unite. And if I don''t go to this war in person, I will be sorry. After many years, I''d like to see how Zhang Xiu can break my Hengshan line of defense. "


    Guo Jia sighed.


    So far, there is no need for Guo Jia to persuade any more.


    Guo Jiayan said: "since your majesty has made a decision, go. Indeed, with your majesty at the front line, the soldiers can work harder. Our war is even more a battle of the national destiny of the great Wei state. "


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard and said, "this battle is really of great importance. The great Wei will win this battle."


    "Great Wei will win!"


    When several people heard the speech, they all spoke together.


    One by one, their faces were full of fighting spirit and expectation.


    They are also looking forward to the war.


    Because if we don''t fight with Zhang Xiu and win this war, the state of Wei will never be peaceful.


    This war is inevitable.

 Chapter 1130

    Hengshan is on the way to Changli County.


    The mountain is not very steep.


    It''s not difficult to cross the Hengshan Mountain. After all, the road is neither steep nor rugged. Just walk along the broad road. After Zhang Liao led the vanguard troops to arrive, they quickly built fortifications.


    This time, Zhang Liao, in particular, began to dig trenches layer by layer along the slope, just like building terraces. But the trench was not deep, only half a man tall.


    Zhang Liao''s fortifications were soon properly arranged, and even on the way up the mountain, there were Tribulus terrestris, horse resistance and so on, to prevent Zhang Xiu''s army from attacking directly.


    When everything was well arranged, Zhang Liao stationed his troops here.


    Soon after Zhang Liao arrived, Cao ang led the army to arrive one after another.


    The command post of the Cao Wei army was also built on the mountain. Cao Ang''s command post is located at the top of Hengshan Mountain. It can overlook the situation at the bottom of Hengshan Mountain, so that Cao ang can take charge of the whole situation.


    At the same time, the army led by Zhang Xiu has been close to Hengshan. Even though Zhang Xiu did not arrive at Hengshan, the news of Hengshan has been passed back.


    Everything in Hengshan is known to Zhang Xiu.


    When the army arrived at Hengshan, less than six miles away, the army stopped and stationed for the time being.


    The army camped for miles.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu, dressed in armor, sits directly above.


    Below are Pang Tong, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning and others, all gathered.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "in terms of Cao Wei, troops are stationed in Hengshan. How do you think we should fight this war? "


    Ganning said: "Your Majesty, Hengshan is not a steep cliff, not a place with rough roads. When our troops arrive at Hengshan, they can attack. So I think we can attack Hengshan. In the face of absolute strength, even if it is Cao Wei, there is any conspiracy, it will not help


    Huang Zhong echoed: "Your Majesty, I agree."


    For Huang Zhong and Gan Ning, things are not difficult. After all, Daqin is strong enough to sweep Cao Wei. On such a premise, both Huang Zhong and Gan Ning agreed to go to war directly.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not make a statement.


    A strong attack is possible.


    However, it may not be necessary to attack so forcibly.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Pang Tong. She said, "Shiyuan, how do you think about it?"


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, I agree to attack Hengshan. However, Chen believes that a strong attack on Hengshan also requires a certain plan and the cooperation of different arms, rather than a rush to attack. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "talk about it carefully!"


    Pang Tong said slowly: "I think this battle must be a simultaneous attack of the air and the ground. First, the flying eagle battalion dropped gunpowder from the air to bomb the Cao Wei army''s position in Hengshan. Then, the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army jointly attacked and won a scorched Hengshan. In this way, the layout of the Cao Wei army in Hengshan was completely swept away. We will win this battle. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened and praised Pang Tong''s arrangement.


    The war of later generations is the battle of the sea, land and air.


    Today, Pang Tong took the flying eagle camp as the vanguard, and then assisted by the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army. In this way, he was able to win the war. Even if Cao ang was fully prepared, he would still be defeated.


    Zhang Xiu has not yet made a statement, Zhang Xiu continued: "Your Majesty, at the beginning of this war, I still have a suggestion."


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Pang Tong said: "this battle is not only the cooperation of the flying eagle camp, the fierce tiger army and the flying bear army, but also the mobilization of all the water troops. In the early years, the water army of the Qin Dynasty was in Jingzhou. After the destruction of the state of Wu, they often sailed along the Yangtze River and were able to cross the sea. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "therefore, I think we should send the navy to the north to rest in the sea area near Qingzhou, and then go to the sea garrison at the border of Lelang county to prevent Cao ang from escaping from the sea after his defeat. Only in this way can Cao Ang''s retreat be completely blocked. "


    "Wonderful


    Zhang Xiu was greatly praised.


    Pang Tong''s analysis has been based on the sea, land and air combat, mobilizing the flying eagle battalion in the sky, as well as the land and sea forces, mobilizing all the forces of the sea, land and air.


    It''s a very strong force.


    What''s more, Cao Ang''s power should be completely destroyed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue, who was standing on one side, and said, "send orders to the royal guards, and immediately go south to summon the water army to the north."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu and others discussed some of the details of the follow-up, decided to send troops after the plan, the army will no longer stay, army pull out, straight to Hengshan.


    The army under Zhang Xiu''s command is vast and powerful.


    When the army came to the foot of Hengshan, they saw that the army of Cao Wei was all over Hengshan.


    Zhang Xiu fixed her eyes and was surprised.


    Because from the foot of the mountain, climbing along the hillside of Hengshan, the road has only a slope of about 45 degrees, but on this slope, many ditches have been dug out, and Cao Wei''s soldiers are hiding inside. From their hiding places, these soldiers can shoot at close range and use bows and arrows to stop the Qin army on the mountain. At the same time, the soldiers in the trench, with shelter, can use the shelter to spear out.This is Zhang Liao''s arrangement.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised at Cao Jun''s arrangement, but she didn''t think so. Because no matter what kind of Defense Cao Jun made, it could not change the fact of defeat.


    Cao ang will be defeated in this battle.


    In this war, the state of Wei will be defeated.


    Zhang Xiu rode to the foot of Hengshan Mountain. He looked up to the slope. At the top of the mountain is Cao Ang''s command post. At this time, Cao ang had come out of the command post. With Guo Jia, Xun you and others, he came to the position near the foot of the mountain and looked at Zhang Xiu closely.


    As soon as Cao ang saw Zhang Xiu, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of hatred.


    The enemy''s eyes are red when they meet, that''s what it is.


    After all, for Cao ang, Zhang Xiu was the hatred of killing his father and destroying his country. Without Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao would not have died, and Cao Wei in the Central Plains would not have been destroyed.


    All this is caused by Zhang Xiu.


    Cao ang clenched his fist and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, I always remember the hatred of the past. Although I have been in a corner all these years, I have never forgotten my hatred. I have been waiting for this war for many years. This time, when you come to Hengshan, you can only stop here. "


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "everyone can talk big. Cao ang, have you forgotten the situation when you were in Nanyang County in the past. You, Cao ang, are just a defeated general. Especially when the state of Wei occupied the Central Plains, I could easily destroy it. Now the state of Wei is in a corner, hiding in Liaodong. Under my army, the state of Wei will surely be defeated. Now, you are just fighting hard. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu looked up at the Hengshan Mountain and said in a loud voice, "I am Zhang Xiu. Today, I personally lead the army to attack Cao ang. The Qin army under my command is invincible and invincible. Now, Cao Ang''s defeat is imminent. Now we surrender. I will let bygones be bygones and accept you as the people of the great Qin Dynasty. If it is a stubborn resistance, there will be no amnesty for killing. "


    Strong words, echoing in the air, are introduced into the ears of Cao Wei soldiers.


    The soldiers of the Cao army turned pale one after another.


    One by one, there are worries on their faces. As the name of the so-called shadow man of the tree, Zhang Xiu''s fighting with soldiers is always invincible. Now Zhang Xiu wants to attack Cao Wei, so Cao Wei soldiers are worried that they can''t stop it.


    This is the power of Zhang Xiu.


    It is also the influence of Zhang Xiu''s victory.

 Chapter 1131

    Cao ang heard Zhang Xiu''s words, looked around, saw the reaction of a group of soldiers, and immediately frowned. After many years, Zhang Xiu is still Zhang Xiu, is still familiar with the formula, is still familiar with the taste. As soon as he opens his mouth, he will sow dissension and intend to disturb his morale.


    Cao ang took a breath and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, you want to threaten me, Cao Wei Erlang. That''s self righteous. The fighting spirit of the state of Wei will never be frustrated. On the contrary, you kill me Dawei Erlang, and I hate Dawei. I want to kill you soon. It''s futile for Zhang Xiu to show off her eloquence. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Cao ang, it''s futile for you to show off your advantage. But the problem is, if you look carefully at the officers and men of Wei Dynasty, they are all like counsels, and they are afraid. "


    Cao ang said: "hum, I don''t know if I have counselled until I have fought."


    He knew that the morale of the army was damaged.


    However, Cao ang could not retreat. Once he retreated, let alone Changli County, even the whole Liaodong and even the whole Lelang County could not be defended.


    So Cao ang had to fight to the death.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said, "Cao ang, where is Guo Jia?"


    Cao ang looks at Guo Jia.


    At this time, Guo Jia stood up. He looked at Zhang Xiu at the foot of the mountain and said in a loud voice, "Zhang Xiu, Guo fengxiao is here. What do you want to say?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Guo Jia, Cao Cao is a hero. If you follow Cao Cao, you can show your talent. However, you are now working for Cao ang. That''s a shot in the dark. The so-called tiger father and dog son, it''s a pity that you follow Cao ang. "


    Guo Jia said: "there''s nothing that comes from behind. All this is what Guo Jia wants. Guo Jia''s wish in this life is to defeat you, Zhang Xiu. Only in this way can we get what we want. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head.


    Guo Jia is so stubborn.


    But this is also expected, because people like Guo Jia can not easily change their family.


    Cheng Yu is impatient.


    Although Cheng Yu is old, he is full of Zhongqi. He stands up next to Guo Jia, stares at Zhang Xiu at the foot of the mountain, and exclaims: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to fight, you can fight. I will accompany you to the end. If you don''t go to war, don''t be so tiresome. I, Cheng Yu, look down on people like you. "


    He called Zhang Xiu Pifu.


    Because Zhang Xiu is a martial artist, not a famous family.


    Zhang Xiu looked up and saw Cheng Yu. The corner of her mouth rose and said faintly, "who am I? It''s Cheng Yu and Cheng Zhongde. It''s a bit of a surprise that you haven''t died after many years. "


    Cheng Yu said: "you are not dead, I will not go before you."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s a pity that those who want me to die have left before me. Li Zhen wanted me to die, Li Zhen died; Liu Biao wanted me to die, Liu Biao died; Liu Bei wanted me to die, Liu Bei died; Yuan Shao and Gong sunzan wanted me to die, too. Even Cao Cao, Xu Chu, Dian Wei and Xia Houdun wanted me to die, and they all died. "


    "Now, it''s Cheng Yu''s turn."


    "You''ve lived for decades, but now you''re still alive. What''s the point of living?"


    "Just die."


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp words continued: "Cheng Yu, Cao Cao is alone underground, quite lonely. You''ve lived for decades now, and you''ve lived enough. You can see Cao Cao earlier and talk to him about the past. "


    Cheng Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, I will witness you go to see the emperor first."


    Zhang xiudao said: "wishful thinking!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said again, "Cheng Yu, you still follow Cao ang. As everyone knows, the foundation of the whole Cao Wei Dynasty in Liaodong and Lelang county has long been empty. The officials of Liaodong and Lelang County, as well as countless people, have already expressed their willingness to follow me. In this war, I have not only a large army that can defeat everything, but also innumerable insiders. I will surely win. "


    Cheng Yu clenched his fist.


    He was very angry because Zhang Xiu insulted Cao Cao.


    For Cheng Yu, Cao Cao is the leader of his Ming Dynasty. Zhang Xiu humiliates Cao Cao and makes Cheng Yu restless.


    Cheng Yu big sleeve a brush, way: "Zhang Xiu, mouth fight, that is nonsense.". If you have the ability, attack Hengshan. Our Cao army has nearly 100000 sons, and we are waiting on the Hengshan Mountain. "


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu looked at the ditches on the Hengshan Mountain.


    There are countless Cao Jun in it.


    There are also Cao troops stationed on the mountain.


    Nearly 100000 Cao''s soldiers, all gathered in Hengshan, intended to stop Zhang Xiu, so that Zhang Xiu''s army could not move forward.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a sentinel Pegasus was originally.


    Sentry came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "Your Majesty, the flying eagle camp is ready."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised.


    The reason why he talked with Cao ang, Cheng Yu and others was to suppress the morale of Cao Wei''s army on the one hand, and to buy time for the soldiers of Feiying camp on the other.


    Zhang Xiu was inspired and exclaimed: "Cao ang, my army''s offensive has come. Now, I see how you can resist. In front of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, the defense of the state of Wei is nothing but a local chicken and a tile dog, which is not worth mentioning. "When Cao ang heard this, he cheered up.


    He looked around carefully, but there were no soldiers around to attack, and the Qin army did not move.


    What about Zhang Xiu''s offensive?


    Cao ang looked a little strange.


    Guo Jia fought Zhang Xiu several times, but he was familiar with Zhang Xiu''s means. He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu has an army that can fly in the air. This time, there may be attacks from the air. You have to be careful about that. "


    Cao angyan said: "don''t worry, sir. Everything is ready. What''s more, the soldiers were hiding in the trenches. Even if Zhang Xiu threw fireballs from the air, it had little effect on us. After all, firewood is needed to ignite the fireball. In particular, there are countless sands on the trench, which can put out the fire immediately. "


    Guo Jia nodded.


    He raised his head and looked into the distance.


    Suddenly, the pupil in Guo Jia''s eyes shrank, and a touch of surprise passed through the eyes.


    "Here comes your majesty!"


    Guo Jia exclaimed in surprise.


    In Guo Jia''s sight, there were dense shadows flying in the distance, close to the direction of Hengshan. From the ground to the air, it is at least forty to fifty steps away. It is not easy to shoot arrows from the ground into the air. In particular, this time to the flying ball, dense, at a glance, no less than a hundred flying ball.


    "Shoot an arrow, shoot an arrow for me!"


    When Cao ang saw it, he called for an order.


    There were archers on the ground, and even crossbows. With Cao Ang''s order, all the archers began to shoot. Just shooting from the ground, especially in the air, has great resistance and the influence of wind speed, so it''s very easy and cheap, and it''s difficult to aim and shoot.


    Even if a few of them hit the fly ball, it doesn''t affect the overall situation.


    A lot of flying balls, starting to get close to Yokoyama.

 Chapter 1132

    Now the flying eagle camp formed by feiqiu is no longer under the leadership of Hu mo. after all, Hu Mo has been transferred to the Ministry of industry and has not taken action with the army. The general in charge of the flying eagle camp is Gao Shu. He was once a Mohist and the first commander of the flying eagle camp.


    Now, as the commander of the flying eagle camp.


    Gao Shu controls the flying ball and keeps moving forward. When the distance is less than 60 steps, Gao Shu no longer delays. He orders decisively: "let''s fire the arrow, attack!"


    "Whew!"


    A loud arrow blasted off from the flying ball where the tall tree was. As the order was given, the soldiers in the flying balls took out the powder pack, quickly lit the fuse and threw it down to the ground.


    In hundreds of flying balls, the powder pack was thrown at the same time. Hundreds of powder packs fell, all of which ignited the lead wire. With the burning of the ignition line, it is closer to the ground.


    At the foot of the mountain, at the top of Hengshan.


    Cao ang looked at the gunpowder bags, frowned, and his face was dignified.


    This is a different weapon.


    In the past, Zhang Xiu used to fight in Nanyang County with the help of a flying ball. She bumped a pottery pot into the fire oil, then lit it with hemp cloth soaked in the fire oil on the sealing plug of the pottery pot, threw it down and set it on fire.


    This time, it''s not.


    I didn''t see the burning flames, I didn''t see the pots, I just saw the black package.


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia and said, "Mr. Guo, Zhang Xiu''s flying ball attack this time seems to be different."


    "It''s really different," Guo said


    He had a more dignified look in his eyes.


    The great Qin Dynasty, under the control of Zhang Xiu, is very powerful. Especially in the past few years, the strength of Daqin has risen countless. No one knows what kind of means Zhang Xiu has.


    Guo Jia stares at the gunpowder bag.


    It''s close!


    The fallen weapon will be near the ground.


    "Bang!"


    The first cartridge landed and hit the ground.


    "Boom!"


    The next moment, the powder pack suddenly burst, with the explosion of the powder pack, a fire rose, the explosion site, was immediately blown out of a big hole, close to the soldiers, were directly blown out, died on the spot.


    "Boom!"


    One by one, the powder packs landed.


    Explosions, one after another.


    Under the violent explosion, the whole slope of Hengshan began to shake, and countless screams came out. Originally, Cao Ang''s soldiers could hide in the trench, but the trench was not deep, and there were too many powder packs, which kept falling and exploding, so that countless Cao Wei soldiers died in the explosion.


    "Run away!"


    In the crowd, Cao''s soldiers suddenly roared.


    Cao Jun was really stunned by the bombing.


    They used to hide in the ditch, even if they were throwing fire oil in the air, but they had sand and stone, which was enough to put out the fire quickly. But no one thought that what fell was not fire oil, but a weapon to crack.


    Under the dense gunpowder explosion, the soil was flying, the debris was flying, and there were countless casualties.


    Countless people, wailing loudly.


    Countless people fled in a hurry.


    Even under the bombardment of gunpowder, the original was not steep, but it sank a little.


    The curtain fell on the top of Hengshan Mountain. Cao ang saw that the soldiers were in a terrible situation. He gulped down a mouthful of saliva. His expression was extremely startled. He said in a deep voice: "Mr. Guo, what weapon is this? Zhang Xiu''s lethal weapon is so terrible. We have nearly 100000 people in it. We can''t resist it at all! "


    At the moment, Guo Jia also looked shocked.


    In his whole life, he had never seen such a tragic scene. He could not imagine that such a situation would happen.


    It''s scary!


    Even more unimaginable!


    Guo Jia was even in a trance. He was at a loss in the face of this scene. Even if Guo Jia has been on the battlefield for a long time, and even if Guo Jiacai is extremely intelligent, he has no way to deal with such weapons.


    Just as in the past, Zhou Yu and sun CE led the water army to fight Zhang Xiu and met the keel warship. Even if you are extremely intelligent, you will feel extremely sour when you encounter advanced weapons that are beyond common sense and weapons that are difficult to contend with.


    Because there is no solution.


    Guo Jia sighed: "Your Majesty, now we can only withdraw."


    Cao Ang''s heart, but not reconciled, looked to the side of Cheng Yu, said: "Zhong De Gong, do you think?"


    Cheng Yu said: "there is no way, can only withdraw."


    "Your Majesty, get out of the way, get out of the way!"


    At this moment, Zhang Liao cried out.


    Because the flying ball in the air is moving forward slowly, getting closer and closer to Cao ang and his party. Even if people in mid air can''t see Cao ang, the problem is that the king''s flag can roughly judge Cao Ang''s whereabouts."Come on, carry the flag!"


    After Zhang Liao reminded Cao ang, he arranged for the soldiers to come forward again, shouldered the flag representing Cao''s army and ran away. Because in the current situation, Cao Ang''s safety can only be preserved by transferring the flag representing Cao''s army.


    Just at this time, the powder pack had fallen.


    "Boom! Boom


    The sound of successive explosions sounded again.


    Fortunately, all the gunpowder packets fell not far away. Even if the soil burst and the fire flashed, Cao ang was not hurt. But after such a wave of bombing, the top of Hengshan collapsed.


    The forbidden army in the army has suffered countless losses.


    At this time, the flying ball in the air is gradually away. But Cao''s line of defense in Hengshan collapsed. In particular, the nearly 100000 troops on Hengshan suffered a great loss.


    Cao ang looked at this scene, extremely sour.


    The heart is very lost.


    Lost!


    This thought came to him.


    Especially in this war, he had not even started a war with Zhang Xiu. He had not even touched the hair of a soldier of the Qin army, and he was defeated.


    Cheng Yu was also disheartened. He looked at the tragic scene at the foot of the mountain and the soldiers of Cao Jun who ran away in a hurry. He felt sorry and said, "Your Majesty, leave. We can''t hold on to this war. Now, we can only retreat to Changli County. "


    "Your Majesty, go away!"


    Xun you also made suggestions.


    In fact, at the beginning of the war, there was a tragic scene, even Xun you had no way.


    Others, too, began to persuade.


    No one dares to fight.


    Cao ang saw this scene and sighed in his heart. He could only order: "withdraw, withdraw all."


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounded from the Hengshan Mountain.


    When the evacuation order was given, Cao ang, together with Xun you, Zhang Liao and others, retreated in disgrace. In this war, everyone''s heart is flustered, and they have their own thoughts.


    Compared with the chaos of Cao Jun, Zhang Xiu led the army to the foot of the mountain, but she was full of spirit. In particular, Zhang Xiu heard the sound of the Gong of Cao''s retreat, shouting: "attack!"


    With the order issued, the Qin army launched an attack.


    The fierce tiger army and the flying bear army launched an attack at the same time and began to rush up the mountain along the hillside. Today''s Hengshan half slope, in addition to the trench, the rest is pitted, a tragic sign.


    The army rushed quickly and began to cover up the Qin soldiers who were ready to leave. In addition, some cavalry began to make a detour from the side and went up the hillside of Hengshan, intending to kill Cao Jun.


    The army quickly covered up and killed Cao Jun.


    One by one, Cao Jun was killed.


    Zhang Xiu did not personally go to cover up, but with the army followed, not anxious not slow to follow. But now the battle in the front has spread out the cry of not killing those who surrender. Countless people of the Qin army shout, while the Cao army who falls behind no longer resists and begins to surrender in large quantities.


    It''s not that we don''t fight, it''s that we can''t stop it.


    It''s not that we don''t fight, it''s that we can''t do anything.


    Cao''s army was defeated like a mountain and lost more and more.


    Cao ang, who is in the front, is withdrawing with the army. When he sees the scene in the rear, his heart is even more miserable. Cao ang at this moment, the heart of endless desolation.


    How else can he resist?


    How can he fight with Zhang Xiu?


    Cao ang had no choice.

 Chapter 1133

    Cao ang withdrew with the army, but when he withdrew along the way, the army was constantly damaged, and more and more soldiers surrendered. In particular, the army led by Zhang Xiu was in hot pursuit, and the cavalry killed him, which led to more and more losses of Cao Ang''s army.


    Along the way, Cao ang returned directly to Changli County. After the army retreated into the city, Cao ang temporarily garrisoned with the help of the city. At this time, Cao ang had time to count his losses.


    When the final result was reported, Cao ang was silent.


    Nearly 100000 people lost more than 70000 people, and only more than 20000 people were left with Cao ang.


    The most important thing is that Cao ang has never been at war with Zhang Xiu.


    Even the soldiers of the Qin army never met with Cao ang, and the 100000 troops led by Cao ang were completely defeated. No matter who it is, no one can bear such a result.


    Cao ang was silent, just like Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Xun you and others.


    They were all silent.


    Cao ang said: "gentlemen, this battle has been defeated, and the damage is huge. Now, how can we resist it? "


    Guo Jia was silent.


    He couldn''t think of a way to resist.


    When he was in Hengshan before, Cao Jun intended to resist with Hengshan, but in the end, Hengshan''s fortifications turned into scorched earth, which damaged countless soldiers. Up to now, there are only 20000 people left in Cao''s army. It is almost impossible to resist with the help of Changli County.


    After all, Hengshan is no different from Changli.


    It''s all the same.


    Hengshan can''t be defended, so can Changli County.


    Cheng Yu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Your Majesty, with today''s forces, we can''t defend Changli County. Therefore, I suggest evacuation. At present, we can only evacuate, otherwise we can''t stop Zhang Xiu''s attack. "


    Xun you said, "we have to evacuate."


    The rest of the people spoke.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentry quickly came to the tower.


    Sentry report: "Your Majesty, the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu is less than ten miles away from Changli County."


    "Explore again!"


    Cao ang said.


    At this moment, Cao Ang''s face was more serious, because Zhang Xiu''s army was getting closer and closer to Changli County. If we''re going to evacuate, we have to evacuate now. If you want to stick to it, you have to prepare now.


    But the problem is that Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun you and others all proposed to withdraw their troops. They all thought that Changli County could not be defended, and Cao ang did not have the strength to defend.


    After the sentry left, Cao ang thought about it and made a decision. He ordered: "order, evacuate Changli County."


    "Here it is


    One side of the herald to order, immediately go to inform.


    With the soldiers to order, Cao ang also took Xun you, Cheng Yu and others down the castle, and quickly left Changli County. However, when Cao ang was on his way, he also arranged for people to burn the food that Changli County could not take away.


    After Cao ang led the troops to withdraw, Zhang Xiu led the army to follow, and took Changli County. After all, without Cao ang, people in Changli County did not resist.


    Zhang Xiu sent troops to seize the county seat, but also changed the officials.


    If you don''t arrange your own people to stay in the county, once Zhang Xiu continues to go deep, Changli County may have a change.


    So we must ensure the safety of Changli County.


    After taking control of Changli County, Zhang Xiu continued to send troops along Liaodong and pursued Cao Ang''s army again. Today, there are more than 100000 people in the army led by Zhang Xiu. Cao ang could not resist such a mighty army. As a result, Cao ang fought and retreated, while Zhang Xiu went deep step by step.


    In August, although the weather is hot, in fact, it is not as hot as June and July.


    In particular, the weather in the North began to cool off early.


    It''s getting cooler.


    After Cao Ang''s troops left Liaodong, they had retreated to Lelang county. This is the last defense line of Wei, but Cao ang can''t guard it now.


    When he came to the Korean city in Lelang County, Cao ang felt helpless, but he was more and more unwilling.


    He was not willing to leave.


    Once you evacuate again, you will lose everything in Liaodong.


    Cao ang looked at Xun you, Guo Jia and others gathered together and said that he had decided to prepare for the first World War. Then he said with a straight face, "if you leave now, you will have nothing left for us. Today, there is only one world war. If North Korea city can''t hold, evacuate. But at least, I''ll do it. I''m not reconciled if I don''t work hard. "


    "I am willing to fight with your majesty."


    Guo Jia spoke solemnly.


    Xun you, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu and others also spoke one after another. Everyone agreed with Cao Ang''s decision to prepare for the first World War and then consider the evacuation. After all, Cao ang did not want to fight to the death.


    Everybody, up and down.


    All are willing to fight.


    Cao ang was relieved to see that everyone supported him. If no one agrees with his announcement of World War I, then he has no choice. After all, he needs the support of all. Now with everyone''s support, he can fight to his heart''s content. With the promulgation of the order, the defensive equipment in the North Korean city kept gathering.When Cao ang began to prepare, the army led by Zhang Xiu finally arrived.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is close to the county.


    The mighty army was stationed outside the city.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the towering and magnificent Korean city, with a sneer on her lips. It''s just a Korean city. Zhang Xiu rode forward. He came to the front of the army and said in a loud voice, "where is Cao Ang?"


    "I''m here!"


    Cao ang, dressed in armor, stood on the tower with sharp eyes.


    He''s ready for World War I.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Cao ang, in the battle of Hengshan, the 100000 people you led were almost destroyed. Now, with only a few troops, you are trying to resist with the help of the Korean city. That''s a fool''s dream. "


    "Now, you are determined to fight to death. Do you think there are not enough dead soldiers? If I were you, I would not bury countless lives for my own selfish interests. "


    "It''s nothing to fight to death if you can resist it. But the problem is, you don''t have the strength to resist. Even if it''s resistance, it''s also stubborn. Why


    "How selfish of you


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "looking back, what a hero Cao mengde was. He was determined to assassinate Dong Zhuo and attack Dong Zhuo for the good of the world, regardless of his own danger. But now, as Cao mengde''s son, you have lost Cao mengde''s heroic courage. Instead, you are fighting for your own selfish interests, which makes people look down upon you! "


    "I despise you, Cao ang."


    Zhang Xiu spoke flatly.


    His words, with sharp and disdain, the voice is clear to the city upstairs.


    Cao ang frowned.


    Zhang Xiu is still such a nuisance.


    Before the war started, he had planned to encourage his soldiers to shake his morale.


    But Zhang Xiu continued: "listen to the soldiers on the tower, my great Qin Bing Feng, you have seen it in Hengshan. When I was in Hengshan, I ordered you to surrender, but you didn''t want to. "


    "Because you have never seen the strength of my weapons."


    "Now, you''ve seen it."


    "Now, I call on you to surrender again, because your resistance is completely stubborn. Under the attack of my weapons, such a big Korean city can''t resist at all. "


    "Your resistance can only be in vain, can only be to bury their own lives."


    Zhang xiulang said: "Cao ang has no way. You don''t have to die with Cao ang. Today, I sincerely hope that you will not fight for Cao ang because it is not worth it. "


    With Cao Ang''s words, there was an uproar on the tower.


    If Cao''s soldiers on the top of the city had never seen the power of gunpowder, they would be willing to fight to the death. After all, they have a strong city to resist. But the problem is that Cao''s soldiers on the city tower saw the power of gunpowder in Hengshan and knew the hegemony of gunpowder.


    Even if there is a strong North Korean city, it can''t carry it.


    Cao Jun is bound to lose.


    Originally silent city upstairs, gradually talking up, a soldier in the army, constantly talking. Cao Ang''s face was livid and he didn''t know what to do for a moment.


    He wants to fight, but his morale has been shaken.

 Chapter 1134

    Cao Ang''s face was very solemn, but the solemn look gradually became dispirited. When he looked at Guo Jia, Xun you and others, they all shook their heads to persuade Cao ang to withdraw.


    This war cannot be fought.


    Cao''s army has no strength and confidence to fight. If it really wants to fight, Cao''s army will surely be defeated.


    "Your Majesty, since I am the chief General of the army, I will stay here and die. This battle has come to a time of crisis. I''m willing to lead the troops to fight to the death after the end of the battle. Please your majesty lead the army to retreat. "


    Zhang Liao stepped forward and took the initiative to fight.


    Before the first battle in Hengshan, Zhang Liao was the chief general, but the problem was that Zhang Liao didn''t even encounter the Qin army in Hengshan, so he retreated at the expense of his troops, so that Zhang Liao''s heart was choked.


    It''s a tough fight.


    Now that we have retreated to the Korean city, we still have no strength in the first World War and can only retreat.


    Zhang Liao chose to stay and fight to the death.


    When Cao ang heard Zhang Liao''s words, his eyes were solemn and he said, "general Wen Yuan, you have to think it over. If you stay to fight to death, you are going to die. This is a situation in which there is no life but death. It is impossible to survive. "


    Zhang Liao said: "I would rather fight to the death!"


    He didn''t want to be a deserter any more.


    It''s better to stay and fight than to flee. Even if it''s going to die, it''s going to die vigorously.


    Cao angyan said: "I will leave you 1000 tiger and leopard horses and 15000 elite soldiers. Wenyuan, if you can fight to the death, you should fight to the death. But when it comes to the critical moment, if you can''t keep it, I will allow you to surrender Zhang Xiu. "


    Zhang Liao said: "I should be loyal to Wei Dynasty."


    Cao ang didn''t speak any more. He immediately summoned Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and others, led the royal guards around him, and quickly left the north gate of the Korean city with the army. He went straight to the south gate, ready to break through from the south gate.


    Although Cao ang left, Zhang Liao was there.


    Zhang Liao knew that the army was unstable.


    So the first thing he did was to gather all the soldiers under his command. Looking around at all the soldiers, Zhang Liao said in a loud voice: "I think you all know that your majesty has left Korea city first, leaving us to fight to the death."


    "Ben will know that there must be discontent in many people''s hearts. Why should I stay to fight to the death? Why should I stay to end the war. Because staying means being killed. "


    "Ben will understand you."


    "Because Ben will also stay behind. However, the difference is that you are ordered to stay, but Ben will take the initiative to ask for a fight, and you will take the initiative to stay to fight to the death. "


    Zhang Liao''s tone was vehement, saying: "many people must laugh in their hearts. They know it''s dangerous to stay, but they would have to stay. Obviously, they are looking for their own death."


    "Yes, Ben was looking for his own death."


    "In the past, when we were in the Central Plains, we were defeated and withdrew from the Central Plains. We became deserters and retreated to Liaodong. Before that, we were on the Hengshan line, intending to stop Zhang Xiu, but eventually we were defeated and withdrew to the Korean city. "


    "Now your majesty has withdrawn."


    "Again and again, again and again. But the more we retreat, the fewer troops we have and the weaker our resistance. Maybe even in the near future, your majesty will not be able to stop Daqin''s troops. "


    Zhang Liao tossed the ground and said in a voice: "however, Ben would not like to retreat any more. Ben will not be willing to continue as a deserter. So Ben will stay and fight to the death. "


    "It''s going to be said that Ben would be stupid."


    "It''s clear that as the chief General of the army, he can withdraw, but he has to stay to fight and die."


    "Yes, Ben would have been stupid."


    "I would rather die in the first world war than rush out again."


    Zhang Liao said: "the officers and soldiers of the great Wei state should not continue to withdraw like this and should not rush away. However, Ben Jiang''s will is only Ben Jiang''s will. So at this time, those of you who are willing to fight to the death will stay and fight to the end with the general. Those who are not willing to fight to the death will return to the city. When Zhang Xiu breaks the city, you will surrender. "


    "Those who don''t want to fight, step back and go to the city."


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, under the order.


    At first, no one left, but soon after, the first one left. With the emergence of the first soldier to leave the city tower, countless soldiers kept on evacuating and quickly went down the city tower.


    Looking at all this, Zhang Liao was not impatient.


    Even if there is no one left to fight, he will fight to the end.


    This is his will.


    It wasn''t long. The more than ten thousand soldiers on the tower of the city had gone for less than half of them, and nearly nine thousand elite soldiers remained. These nine thousand elite soldiers, one by one with a look of death, determined to fight to death, are willing to fight with Zhang Xiu.


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Liao laughed and said: "originally, I thought that 5000 people would be enough to fight with me. Unexpectedly, there are so many people willing to fight with me. Good to raise, I big Wei Er Lang, Zheng Zheng proud, this will admireAt this point, Zhang Liao folded his hands and bowed to all of them 90 degrees, saying, "thank you. This battle, please. "


    "Fight to the death!"


    In the crowd, a general called out.


    "Fight to the death!"


    "Fight to the death!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers roar. Even if there are only 9000 soldiers left in Cao Wei, the combat effectiveness of these 9000 soldiers is unparalleled. One by one, the sound is rich and sonorous, and the sound of clank is like a torrent of steel, gathering together with indestructible strength.


    Zhang Liao straightened out the army on the upper floor of the city, straightened out the combat effectiveness of the army, and turned to look outside the city.


    Zhang Xiu still didn''t attack.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu did it on purpose.


    After his previous words were uttered, he was able to attack the morale of the Wei soldiers and make them neglect to resist and have no determination to fight to the death. Finally, Zhang Xiu was able to win the first battle.


    Now, when Zhang Xiu hears the cry from the tower, her eyebrows rise, which is quite unexpected.


    Cao Wei is on the verge of extinction.


    I didn''t expect that there would be another war.


    There is such courage.


    Zhang Xiu is no longer more words, ordered: "kill!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, the roaring battle drums resound. The fierce tiger army under the command of Gan Ning and Huang Zhong has already launched an offensive. The black army keeps moving forward. In a short time, it has been close to the city wall. A ladder, a car siege, has been fast forward attack.


    Under the fierce attack of the Qin army, not long after that, some soldiers had climbed up the city tower and began to fight with the people stationed in the city.


    The fighting continues.


    At the gate of the city, a group of soldiers approached.


    This group of soldiers, in their hands, were all carrying fire powder packs, and piles of powder packs piled up. When the fuse was lit, all the soldiers quickly retreated, and the whole gate was empty.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fuse is constantly burning.


    When the fuse is burned, the gunpowder is ignited immediately, and only a bang is heard.


    Boom!!


    Dense explosion sounds, the whole gate of the Korean city, immediately burst out dazzling light. The heavy city gate directly collapsed, and even the city wall was a lot of rags, and became mottled and dilapidated. With the collapse of the gate, the North Korean city suddenly opened, and there was no solid defense.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu gave a decisive order to attack.


    Under the command of the army, out of the nest, straight to the Korean city.


    The mighty army charged, the momentum of the moment no two, and the city upstairs Cao soldiers, at this moment, is also completely cold.


    Lost!


    They didn''t keep North Korea city.

 Chapter 1135

    Zhang Liao led the soldiers to fight and resisted the attack of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. If the gate did not collapse and Zhang Liao was in command, even though the Qin army was on the offensive, and even the Qin army continued to climb the Lincheng tower, Zhang Liao still blocked the offensive and did not let the Korean city fall.


    But the gate collapsed.


    The collapse of the city gate made Zhang Liao''s last line of defense lost, and he could no longer resist the attack of the Qin army. When the Qin army outside the city entered the city from the gate and rushed to the upper floor of the city along the galloping road leading to the upper floor of the city, the garrison Cao army was defeated like a mountain.


    Even if the garrisoned Cao army was determined to die, even if it was fighting to the death, but under the attack of the Qin army, Cao army was defeated, cut, surrounded and killed.


    Huang Zhong has already taken the lead and ascended the Lincheng tower.


    He met Zhang Liao.


    So Huang Zhong went up to the city building and rushed to Zhang Liao with his knife. As soon as he got close to Zhang Liao, the long knife whirled around and chopped him down.


    Knowing Huang Zhong''s strength, Zhang Liao did not resist him directly, so he quickly withdrew.


    He knew that he was not Huang Zhong''s opponent.


    Huang Zhong saw Zhang Liao avoid, but he did not let Zhang Liao go and pressed him step by step. As he stormed, he exclaimed, "Zhang Liao, now that Cao''s army has withdrawn, you are the only one left to guard. What else can you do if you continue to fight hard and let your soldiers die? Do you have the heart to watch your soldiers being slaughtered? "


    When Huang Zhong killed Cao ang and others, he didn''t see them. He knew that Cao ang and others would leave first.


    He wants to surrender Zhang Liao.


    Therefore, while attacking, he also influenced Zhang Liao with words, intending to make Zhang Liao surrender.


    Zhang Liao dodges Huang Zhong''s attack and looks around with a bitter look.


    Lost!


    Cao''s Garrison has been defeated.


    It''s irresistible.


    Although Zhang Liao wanted to command the soldiers to continue fighting to delay time, it was quite difficult for him. Because the troops under his command, even though they were still resisting, could not carry the Qin army''s offensive.


    The whole army has been defeated.


    Huang Zhong noticed that Zhang Liao''s look was different. Knowing that Zhang liaokuai couldn''t resist, he once again exclaimed, "Zhang Liao, if you delay one more breath, more Cao Jun will be killed. At most, in a little half an hour, your soldiers will be slaughtered. Is it worth burying all the soldiers for the sake of a Korean city and loyalty to the Cao family? "


    "Don''t talk about your own life."


    "When it comes to the countless soldiers under your command, are you willing to watch them die?"


    "They are also living people."


    "They have their own wife, children and parents at home; they have their own family at home. Even their families depend on them to earn money to support their families. Now they all die in Korean city. How can you bear it? "


    Huang Zhong''s words are more and more sharp.


    The words, like the tip of a knife, poked directly into Zhang Liao''s heart and shocked Zhang Liao''s heart.


    As a general of Cao family, Zhang Liao was willing to die. He was even willing to fight to the end. But the problem is that Zhang Liao has to take into account the lives of countless soldiers. He can''t ignore the lives of soldiers.


    If Zhang Liao could defend the Korean city, he would fight to death no matter how much he paid. But today''s resistance, totally meaningless resistance, is a stubborn resistance, unable to stop the offensive of the Qin army.


    Therefore, Zhang Liao is not willing to continue.


    He can''t ignore the lives of soldiers.


    These soldiers are not afraid of death. They fight with him. He can''t bury everyone.


    "Alas..."


    Zhang Liao sighed. His sword swung in the air, and the handle of the sword was on the ground. He no longer retreated, but also no longer faced, shouting: "Huang Zhong, I''m down!"


    Zhang Liao chose to surrender.


    He has no choice.


    You can''t watch soldiers die.


    With the words of Zhang Liao''s surrender, Huang Zhong yelled the news of Zhang Liao''s surrender and began to surrender Cao''s army, who was still fighting to the death. For Cao''s soldiers, Zhang and Liao fought to the end.


    Now that Zhang Liao surrendered, Cao''s soldiers, who were still fighting tenaciously, completely lost their support, courage and mind to resist. They threw away their weapons one by one and knelt down on the ground.


    So far, the war subsided.


    The subsequent cleaning continued for nearly half an hour, and the tower of the Korean city was calm.


    Zhang Xiu also entered the city.


    When the army entered the city, Zhang Xiujing went straight into the main palace of the great Wei Dynasty.


    Huang Zhong and Gan Ning came to the palace after counting the results of the war and handling all the military affairs. After they met Zhang Xiu, they reported the results of the war. In the first siege of the Korean city, nearly 5000 Cao soldiers were killed, and the rest were captured. As for the Qin army, only a thousand troops were damaged.


    With a team of more than a thousand people, we won the attack of Korean city.After all, Korean city was the capital of Wei Dynasty.


    After Zhang Xiu praised her, she changed the subject and said, "where is Zhang Liao?"


    Huang Zhong said, "report back to your majesty, Zhang Liao is in custody in the barracks."


    Zhang xiudao: "bring people."


    "Here it is


    Huang Zhong is ordered to go down immediately.


    Shortly after, Zhang Liao was escorted into the hall by soldiers. Even Zhang Liao''s hands were tied behind him. Even though Zhang Liao was a prisoner, he was proud and said, "Zhang Xiu, my soldiers are defeated in your hands. If you want to kill or cut, you can do as you please."


    "To kill you?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile, "what do I do to kill you?"


    Zhang Liao said: "even if you don''t kill me, I, Zhang Liao, still can''t obey you."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that Wen Yuan is very comfortable in the state of Wei. In the past, Wen Yuan was under the command of Dong Zhuo, who was tyrannical. Finally, Wen Yuan was under the command of Lu Bu. "


    "Originally, Lu Bu was brave, but he was headstrong. Wen Yuan followed Lv Bu, and finally Lv Bu was defeated by Cao Cao, so Wen Yuan turned around and came under the command of Cao Cao. "


    "Cao Cao is a hero."


    "I didn''t expect that Cao Cao had died, but Wen Yuan was still determined to die for Cao Wei."


    "It''s very impressive!"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "Wenyuan, you are supported by Cao Cao and respected by Cao ang. However, I don''t think this is the reason why you are stubborn and unwilling to surrender. You, Zhang Liao, are willing to die for your reputation and fame. For you, it''s a lifetime of fame and heroism. "


    "But what about your family?"


    "With your family, you don''t have to worry about food and clothing, and your children don''t have to worry about being bullied. But without your Zhang family, even if they were treated with courtesy by Cao Wei, after all, when people go to tea, can they still be Zhang family? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Zhang Liao, don''t you think about yourself, don''t you think about your parents, wife and children? They just need you to support them, but you are willing to die for your illusory fame. How innocent they are


    Brush!


    Zhang Liao''s face changed slightly.


    Now, if Zhang Liao''s mind is still affected, it is his family.


    If he dies, he worries about his family''s livelihood.


    After all, Zhang''s family had always depended on him. Once he died, Zhangjia lost the backbone, lost the pillar, then Zhangjia, also began to decline.


    This is predictable.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Zhang Wenyuan, you are not only the general of Cao Wei, but also the pillar of Zhang Jia. I hope you can think it over. Of course, after so many words, if you insist on dying, I will help you. "


    Zhang Liao was silent.


    He thought, with a hesitant look on his face, because for a moment, he didn''t know what to choose.

 Chapter 1136

    Zhang Xiu saw Zhang Liao hesitant, but did not persuade. The reason is very simple. He has made it clear what he should say. Next, to make a choice, that is Zhang Liao''s choice, Zhang Xiu no longer interfere.


    If Zhang Liao really wants to die, Zhang Xiu will help him if he doesn''t stop him.


    Zhang Xiu waited quietly.


    Zhang Liao''s expression changed again and again, but in the end, he still had a decision, kneeling on one knee, clasping his fist and saying: "Zhang Liao, willing to submit to your majesty, willing to serve for the Qin Dynasty."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised and said: "Wenyuan is obedient today and will not regret it. There''s no need to kneel down. Get up


    "Thank you


    Zhang Liao bowed his thanks.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a soldier quickly entered, knelt down on one knee and reported: "Your Majesty, the front-line sentinel sent back the news and found the trace of Cao ang and his party. Now, they are running to the southwest of Lelang county."


    "Southwest?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "so it seems that Cao ang and his party are really planning to go to sea from the port in the southwest of Lelang County, and then go south to Japan, so as to avoid us."


    Zhang Liao stood below and said nothing.


    He knows.


    However, when it comes to Cao Ang''s affairs, even if he has already submitted to Zhang Xiu, he is not willing to talk about the old master''s affairs.


    So Zhang Liao didn''t speak.


    Huang Zhong said: "Your Majesty, Cao ang wants to go out to sea, but we have already arranged a water army on the sea to the west of Lelang county. Now, we are waiting for Cao ang to enter the urn. "


    "That''s exactly what it is," Zhang said


    Zhang Liao was surprised to hear that his brows rose.


    As far as the Qin Dynasty is concerned, it has already deployed troops on the sea early, blocking the retreat to the south. In this way, even if Cao ang left the Korean city, it was extremely difficult for him to go south to Wozhou.


    In this way, the state of Wei will be defeated.


    Although Zhang Liao was surprised, he still didn''t speak.


    Zhang Xiu, on the other hand, dispatched some troops to the Korean city, took Huang Zhong and Gan Ning with her, and started to run to the port in the southwest of Lelang county.


    When Zhang Xiu pursued from the rear, Cao Ang''s troops had already far away from the Qin army.


    But around Cao ang, there were not many troops.


    There are less than 10000 people left.


    Especially this time, because of the rush of time, Cao ang didn''t carry much dry food around him, that is to say, he could support the Japanese state. For Cao ang, the loss was huge, but he had to face it.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest.


    The soldiers began to eat.


    After eating some dry food, Cao ang didn''t continue to eat. He really had no appetite. He looked at Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and others around him. His voice was a little hoarse and he said, "you guys, we are once again a dog in fear. You say, when we come to Wozhou, can we resist the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army? "


    At this time, Cao ang was a little nervous.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, he is afraid.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s strength is too strong, he led the army, in front of Zhang Xiu, not enough to see. Especially this time, he had 100000 people in his hands, but even Zhang Xiu''s army had not been weakened, and he had already been defeated like a mountain.


    So Cao ang began to doubt himself.


    Does it make sense to stick to it?


    Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu and so on all had a moment of hesitation. These years, they have been working for the state of Wei, but to this day, the state of Wei is still struggling. Especially after Zhang Xiu found their whereabouts, they had no peace.


    It is extremely difficult to avoid Zhang Xiu.


    "Hoo..."


    Cheng Yuchang breathed a sigh and said, "Your Majesty, in the past, Fu Chai swept the state of Yue. Gou Jian lived on his salary and tasted his courage. With 3000 Yue Jia, he finally destroyed the state of Wu. The situation faced by Gou Jian is much worse. But in the end, Gou Jian wiped out the state of Wu and took revenge. Now we are in a disadvantageous position, but at least we have not yet been defeated. "


    "In the old days, when the emperor was there, as long as there was a soldier, he would never give up."


    "Your Majesty, as the son of the former Emperor, takes the former Emperor as an example in everything and inherits the spirit of never giving up. Even in a desperate situation, never give up. "


    "As long as there is a chance, we must fight for it."


    Cheng Yu solemnly said: "Your Majesty, people who have achieved great things in ancient times do not necessarily have extraordinary talent, but they must have perseverance. Because most of the time, the turning point is at the end. If you don''t stick to the end, you''ll never know what it will be. "


    Cao ang was inspired by the speech.


    He took a deep breath and said, "I''ve been taught what Mr. Zhong De said."


    Cheng Yu looked like a teachable child and said, "Your Majesty is holy!"


    Guo Jia saw all this in his eyes, but he shook his head in his heart, but he didn''t say much. The reason is very simple, in Guo Jia''s view, today''s Cao Wei, is already declining, the situation is unfavorable. It is impossible to turn the situation around. The only thing we can do is to survive.Because Zhang Xiu is not the king of Wu.


    Fu Chai, the king of Wu, was willing to accept Gou Jian''s request for peace, but Zhang Xiu couldn''t. Zhang Xiu was determined to destroy the state of Wei.


    The two sides are totally different.


    So Cheng Yu seems to encourage Cao ang, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, it''s of no use at all. That is to say, Cao Ang''s heart is in a state of panic and he has lost his confidence. Therefore, Cheng Yu''s words can pacify Cao ang.


    Although Xun you was uneasy, he never gave up. He said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, although we are defeated temporarily, we may not have the strength of the first World War. As long as we retreat to the Japanese state, we can still fight the first world war with the power of the Japanese state. "


    The rest echoed.


    Even in a disadvantageous situation, no one is willing to take the initiative today.


    After all, it''s not the worst.


    Cao ang revived his spirits and discussed the next March plan with the public. After half an hour''s rest, the army set out again for the port to the southwest of Lelang county.


    It took two days.


    The army led by Cao ang approached the entrance to the sea. This port has been established in the early years and has a complete water village. There must be troops in the barracks and even in the water.


    When Cao ang arrived with his army, he joined up with the army in the water stronghold, moved away the army supplies, and led the army to go out to sea. As the warships went out to sea, Cao ang stood on the deck, gazing at the land of Lelang County, his eyes gradually moistening.


    Since ancient times, Lelang county has belonged to the Han Dynasty.


    Although it is located in a remote area, it has never left the hometown of Dahan. However, for Cao ang, leaving for Wuzhou now means that he has really left his hometown.


    I don''t know when I''m going to return.


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia and said, "Sir, we are going to Wuzhou. Do you think we have a chance to kill him or even return to Yanzhou?"


    "Yes!"


    Guo Jia said: "as long as your majesty is firm in his direction, there will be opportunities. If your majesty himself has given up. Then, as soon as we go, we will not be able to return. "


    "We''ll be back for sure."


    Cao ang clenched his teeth with a firm look on his face.


    He is not willing to leave his hometown like this.


    He wants to go back to his hometown.


    Cao ang stood on the deck, quietly overlooking the land of Lelang county. As the warships gradually went away, the land was gradually out of sight, surrounded by a blue ocean.


    Cao ang and his party are far away from the entrance to the sea.


    "Newspaper!"


    All of a sudden, the sentry on the flagpole, looking at the direction, cried out: "we have a large number of warships in the southwest. There are a number of warships coming to kill us. "

 Chapter 1137

    As soon as Cao ang heard the news from the sentinel, he was shocked and looked southwest. Because he was on the deck, the angle and distance he looked at were not as good as that of the sentry, so he only saw black lines gradually drawing closer on the blue sea.


    In a moment, you can see clearly.


    A keel warship, appeared on the sea, quickly close to the Cao Jun warship. Especially after the distance is shortened, from a distance, you can see the Da Qin battle flag fluttering in the wind on the keel warships.


    "Gudong!"


    Cao swallowed with a look of horror.


    Zhang Xiu has a back hand.


    Cao ang thought that they would be safe after they left Korea city and Lelang county. Even in Cao Ang''s heart, he didn''t worry that Zhang Xiu would come after him. He thought that after going to sea, Zhang Xiu was already weak.


    But unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu still came.


    Zhang Xiu has a back hand.


    Cao ang took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, stabilized his mood, and then carefully stared at the sea ahead. Because there are too many keel warships. A rough scan, at least 50 or 60 search keel warships. Dense warships, across the sea, blocking the way.


    On Cao Ang''s side, there are only six warships, and there are not many real large warships.


    There is too much difference in strength between the two sides.


    As time flies, the distance between the two sides gets closer and closer. In a twinkling of an eye, the keel warships of the great Qin Dynasty have surrounded the warships of Cao ang and his party. They are surrounded and blocked in both directions.


    Cao ang clenched his teeth and gave a decisive order: "rush, rush out!"


    He ordered it directly.


    Now it''s the sea. As long as you rush out, there''s still a chance of life.


    If you give up your hand, everything will be done.


    With the order of Cao ang, the six warships belonging to Cao Wei were already at full power. One by one, the soldiers kept sliding their oars and moving forward quickly, intending to break through the encirclement.


    The person in charge of the Daqin warship is Meng Feifan, who was originally born in the Jingzhou Navy. After the establishment of the water army of the great Qin Dynasty, it quickly came to the fore with outstanding ability, and finally took charge of the water army of the great Qin Dynasty.


    Seeing that the warships of the state of Wei were about to leave, Meng Feifan sneered and said, "run, hit me!"


    Today''s Daqin warship is no longer the warship of the past.


    In the past, Daqin warships were only supported by the keel, even though the impact force was stronger, it was limited. But today''s Daqin warships, in addition to the keel as the skeleton, the front end of each warship is wrapped with iron sheet, which is indestructible and has stronger impact force.


    This is the benefit of technology.


    In the past, everyone thought that the warship wrapped in iron would sink, but in fact, the warship of Daqin did not sink. On the contrary, it was more impregnable and faster.


    Warships of both sides, facing each other.


    In the twinkling of an eye, they have met.


    When the two warships collided, the warships of the Qin Dynasty were not damaged at all, while the warships of the state of Wei were smashed and broken. But in the blink of an eye, the warships of the state of Wei broke and collapsed, and the soldiers on the warships kept falling into the water.


    Both sides, high and low.


    This scene was also seen by Cao ang, who was immediately stunned.


    How is that possible?


    The warships of the great Wei kingdom were also able to sail on the sea and were quite strong. But now, it is a face-to-face defeat.


    "No!"


    Cao ang suddenly exclaimed.


    His own flagship, which is constantly going, is fast approaching Qin warships.


    Cao ang yelled: "turn around, turn around at once! Turn around and don''t hit it. "


    In fact, there was a scene when the warship was destroyed. Even if Cao ang didn''t give the order, the soldiers who were in charge of controlling the direction had begun to turn around, intending to avoid Daqin''s warship. But Rao is so slow. After all, it''s hard to turn suddenly. The tail of Cao Ang''s warship was scratched by the Qin warship.


    "Chaka!"


    The tail of Cao Ang''s warship broke directly.


    The whole ship, shaking.


    It''s shaking.


    Cao Ang''s face, hands on the side of the ship, tugged, himself did not fall because of the warship''s tremor. But some of the others, because they were in the middle of the deck of the warship, didn''t have time to catch something to stabilize themselves, and fell down with a shake. Although Cao Ang''s warships were not destroyed immediately, the other four warships were destroyed in an instant.


    But in the blink of an eye, only Cao Ang''s warship still existed.


    Today, Cao ang is surrounded by groups.


    Meng Feifan after seeing this, big sleeve a whisk, ordered: "up, take Cao ang."


    At the command, the soldiers in the army quickly took out the ladder and put it on Cao Ang''s warship. Then they ran along the ladder and killed Cao Ang''s warship.


    Although there were soldiers on cao''ang''s warship, the problem was that many soldiers were shaking under the shaking of the warship, and they lacked combat effectiveness. However, Meng Feifan''s navy was brave and good at fighting, and quickly landed on cao''ang''s warship.Within a quarter of an hour, Cao ang, Xun Yu, Xun you and others were all detained.


    Everyone was taken to Meng Feifan''s warship.


    After Meng Feifan captured Cao ang and others alive, he ordered people to salvage the Cao army that had fallen into the water. After all the Cao army that could be salvaged were salvaged, Meng Feifan ordered him to return.


    One warship, set sail back.


    The sea voyage, less than half a day, has reached the entrance of Lelang County, came to the port landing.


    Meng Feifan takes people off the ship, and the army led by Zhang Xiu has also arrived at the port.


    When the two armies met, Meng Feifan quickly reported the results of the battle after seeing Zhang Xiu, and finally said: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we will destroy Cao Jun and capture Cao ang and others. The next step was to wipe out the Cao army in the Japanese state. I asked for a fight, and immediately went south to land in Wuzhou and wipe out the Cao army in Wuzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t see Cao ang and others at once, and immediately ordered Huang Zhong to lead the army and Meng Feifan to go south by boat to Wuzhou to wipe out Cao''s army in Wuzhou.


    The reason why Huang Zhong is allowed to work together is to be on the safe side.


    The lion and the rabbit still need to go all out.


    Although Meng Feifan led a large army to the south, it might be able to sweep the Cao army in Wuzhou. However, it is not known what kind of situation Wozhou is, so Zhang Xiu asked Huang Zhong to lead the flying bear army together.


    Huang Zhong and Meng Feifan left quickly, while Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed nearby.


    After Zhang Xiu had dealt with Cao''s captives, she arranged for someone to bring Cao ang. Cao ang is Zhang Xiu''s eldest brother-in-law, but both sides have their own positions. Even if they are related by marriage, they are all put aside.


    Cao ang was rather embarrassed.


    After entering the Chinese army tent, he looked at Zhang Xiu, who was sitting in the main position, and gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, the king is defeated. I''m defeated. If you want to kill or cut, you can do as you please. I don''t fear death. "


    Zhang Xiu sneered and said: "Cao ang, you are just like Zhang Liao. When you see me, you say you want to kill me or cut me. You can do whatever you want. The problem is, I''m not going to kill you. What''s more, you are jie''er''s elder brother. If I kill you, won''t I make jie''er miserable? "


    Cao ang said in a deep voice: "if you don''t kill me, then as long as I''m here, my civil and military generals of Cao Wei can''t really serve you. In their hearts, I have always been the son of heaven and their mainstay. "


    "You are too confident," Zhang said


    For Cao Ang''s words, Zhang Xiu didn''t really care. In other words, Cao Cao can make Zhang Xiu a little afraid, but it''s just a Cao ang. Zhang Xiu''s manipulation of Cao ang is nothing but a matter of opposition.

 Chapter 1138

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and she said again, "even if I don''t kill you, I, Daqin, can still convince the civil and military generals of Cao Wei. If you surrender, the state of Wei will be completely destroyed. "


    Cao ang heard Zhang Xiu''s words and said, "OK, I''m willing to submit to Daqin!"


    Zhang Xiu smell speech, immediately smile.


    Cao ang surrendered. In this way, it was easier to recruit Wei officials. As a matter of fact, Cao angjiang has its own advantages and disadvantages. If Cao ang surrendered, then for the officials of the state of Wei, even Cao ang, the son of heaven, has no longer insisted on it and is willing to surrender. Naturally, the officials of the state of Wei below will surrender one after another and will not insist on it.


    Of course, if Cao ang didn''t surrender, Zhang Xiu''s execution of Cao ang would completely break the root of Cao Wei, and Cao Wei''s officials would lose their backbone. Only those who were really loyal to Cao Wei would still be loyal, because Cao ang died of righteousness, and many officials would follow suit.


    In a word, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.


    But for Zhang Xiu, Cao Ang''s willingness to be submissive will bring more benefits.


    I can explain to Cao Jie.


    Even after Cao Jie married Zhang Xiu, both sides had their own positions, but after all, Cao Jie and Cao ang were related by blood. Can complete Cao Jie''s mind, is also a consideration of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and said in a deep voice: "I have arranged for people to go south to Wuzhou. I expect that in three or five months at most, the army going south will return in triumph. All the people you arrange in Wozhou can''t escape. "


    Cao ang felt dejected.


    The people he arranged in Wuzhou were all the heirs of his own family, as well as some of the heirs of the officials of the state of Wei, who specially guaranteed the future. But now, Zhang Xiu has sent a large army to Japan, and it must be difficult to preserve the state.


    In other words, Cao ang had never seen a warship of the Qin Dynasty. Cao ang was a little confident. After all, it was not easy to sail on the sea. However, the warships of the Qin Dynasty were indestructible, and sailing on the sea was not a problem. It was easy to get to Wuzhou.


    On the Japanese side, there were not many troops.


    Therefore, once Zhang Xiu''s army arrived, the Japanese army would be defeated.


    Cao ang felt a little lost, especially as a prisoner, he lost his freedom, and it was hard for him to adapt for a moment. So he simply did not speak, standing quietly below.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Cao ang didn''t want to talk much, so she waved her hand and asked people to take Cao ang back.


    After Cao ang retreated, Zhang Xiu arranged for Guo Jia to be called.


    Zhang Xiu admired Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia is a man of great talent.


    His vision is extremely accurate.


    However, Cao Cao, who worked for Guo Jia, met Zhang Xiu, so that Cao Cao was defeated in a row, and finally Cao Wei was defeated by Zhang Xiu. Today''s Guo Jia, although somewhat embarrassed, but in fact, the spirit is excellent.


    Guo Jia in history has already died of illness in this era.


    Because of the influence of Zhang Xiu, Guo Jia''s body and bones were not weakened. On the contrary, he became stronger and stronger with excellent spirit. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he was not polite, so he stood at the bottom indifferently, completely ignoring the existence of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu saw this, she didn''t think much of it. She said faintly: "in the past, when she first confronted Cao Cao, she knew the talent of filial piety. I''ve heard so much about you. "


    Guo Jia said faintly, "Your Majesty''s praise is wrong."


    When Zhang Xiu saw Guo Jia''s attitude, she didn''t pay attention to it and said, "in this war, the state of Wei was defeated. Cao ang has chosen to surrender to the Qin Dynasty. Guo Jia, are you willing to submit to Daqin? As long as you like, I''ll be the official of the six departments of the Qin Dynasty


    Today''s six ministries, though powerful, have actually weakened a lot.


    After all, there is a cabinet on top of the six ministries.


    In addition, there are inspectors'' court, Dali temple and other officials who are independent of the six ministries.


    As a matter of fact, for Guo Jia, the positions of officials in the six ministries are still overqualified. With Guo Jia''s ability, it is also a matter of course to enter the cabinet. After all, Guo Jia was born in the state of Wei and could not join the cabinet as soon as he surrendered.


    When Guo Jia heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he shook his sleeve robe and said in a straight tone: "the kindness of your majesty Daqin, Guo Jia is willing to lead. His majesty of the state of Wei is willing to submit to his own consideration. But I can''t yield, let alone surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "why?"


    Guo Jia said: "the reason is actually very simple. The former Emperor was kind to me. When the former emperor died in the war in the past, Guo Jia should have gone with him. Now I''ve been living for several years, and I''m still living. I, Guo Jia, can''t turn my back on the former Emperor, let alone the great Wei. Therefore, Guo Jia is willing to die rather than surrender. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    Guo Jia is a man of great talent. It''s a pity that such a man died.


    He didn''t want Guo Jia to die.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Guo Jia, Cao Cao is very kind to you. I know about it. But these years, you have been in the state of Wei, working hard for Wei''s plan. The gratitude that should be paid is over. Now that the state of Wei is destroyed, why should we die with the state of Wei? "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "this is my choice. If I don''t succeed, I will be benevolent. I''d rather be killed than surrender. Cao Cao, the former Emperor of the state of Wei, was proud and firm, and would rather die than surrender. How could Guo Jia, as a minister, not follow the emperor. I, Guo Jia, would like to sacrifice my blood to the dead emperor. ""Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed.


    Unexpectedly, Guo Jia said something like this. Even Guo Jia chose to die, but she didn''t want to stay. But Zhang Xiu didn''t kill Guo Jia.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s stubborn temper. He wants to see if Guo Jia has the courage to commit suicide.


    "What are you laughing at?" Guo Jia asked


    Zhang Xiu said: "I smile that you want to die, but I don''t intend to kill you. I killed you, didn''t I fulfill your strength and loyalty. Of course, I will not kill you or stop you from committing suicide. If you, Guo Jia, can give up your family, your wife, children and parents, and become an unfilial son to fulfill your loyalty, I will help you. "


    Guo Jia frowned.


    This time, he was in a bit of a dilemma.


    If Zhang Xiu killed him, he had no choice and could not resist. If he died, he would be dead. Anyway, it would be all over. But the problem is that if Zhang Xiu didn''t kill him and entrusted the right of life and death to him, Guo Jia was in trouble.


    If you commit suicide, as Zhang Xiu said, it really helps you to be strong and loyal. But the problem is that Guo Jia is not alone. He is the backbone of the family. In the face of his parents, wife and children, Guo Jia did not have the courage to commit suicide.


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a.


    As the soldiers came in, Zhang Xiu said, "take Guo Jia down and wait on him. There is no need to restrict Guo Jia''s freedom. "


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to step down with his men.


    Guojia now wants to deal with things here, but Zhang Jia doesn''t want to wait for a while.


    Zhang Xiu arranges people again and sends someone to invite Xun you.


    Zhang Xiu is also ready to recruit Xun you.


    In this way, it is also an appeal to the Xunzi family, because to some extent, both xunzu and Xunyou can represent the Xunzi family, which are outstanding figures of the Xunzi family.

 Chapter 1139

    Xun you is now nearly sixty years old and quite old. At this age, I have been through the wind and rain for a long time. What''s more, Xunyou himself experienced the turbulence of the Great Han Dynasty, witnessed the collapse of the Great Han Dynasty, and watched the great Qin rule the country.


    Xun you is now a prisoner.


    However, Xun you has lived a long time, but he is indifferent to these.


    No prisoners.


    After all, half of the body has been buried.


    Xun you straightened his clothes and entered the Chinese army tent. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he saluted humbly and said, "defeated general Xun you, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Gongda, sit down!"


    "Thank you, your majesty


    Xun you''s words and manners were very indifferent. He could not see that he was a prisoner.


    This kind of Xunyou was praised by Zhang Xiu.


    Xun you is worthy of Xun you.


    Xun family, it''s really not simple.


    Not to mention Xunyou''s talent, Xunyou''s bearing alone has already broken people''s hearts.


    After Xun you was seated, Zhang Xiu opened the door and said, "Gongda, you used to be a military adviser of the state of Wei, but now the state of Wei has been destroyed. Cao Cao died first and Cao ang surrendered. Now, are you willing to submit to Daqin and serve me? "


    Xun you was not impatient and said, "Your Majesty, Xun you is old now. Half of his body is buried in the earth. I''m afraid it''s hard to work hard again. Therefore, Xun you is afraid that he can''t serve your majesty now. Please forgive me. "


    This is a refusal.


    Refused on the grounds of age.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and looked at Xun you in front of her. However, Xun you remained unmoved and looked as usual. For an old man like Xun you, even if Zhang Xiu was a great pressure, Xun you could deal with it easily.


    Zhang Xiu made a little silence, then continued: "Gongda, do you know the change of Daqin?"


    Xun you said, "I know a little bit."


    Although Xunyou has been in Liaodong Peninsula and Lelang County, he has been paying close attention to the news and changes of the Central Plains.


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, I think Gongda should know about the land reform."


    "I know!"


    Xun you said, "Your Majesty took over the land of all the people in the world by means of land reform. All the land owned by the aristocratic families and ordinary people was returned to the imperial court. Today, the court distributes land according to population. The surplus land is still in the hands of the court. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "that''s it!"


    Xun you did not answer immediately.


    Because the land reform and soliciting him are totally unrelated. He couldn''t understand the connection between them.


    But Zhang Xiu continued: "after the land reform, the people in the whole territory of Daqin benefited. Today, the people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty are able to eat, wear and live a rich life. On the contrary, the aristocratic families in the territory of the great Qin Dynasty have changed one after another, because they can''t survive simply by collecting rent. "


    "Because they have no land."


    "With the continuous production of rice paper in Daqin, the cost of reading has been reduced. Nowadays, the monopoly of big families on reading is very small and almost nonexistent. "


    "So the sense of existence of the aristocratic family is getting weaker and weaker, unless there are powerful people in the family who can bring benefits to the family. Or the family may start to do business. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "this is the status quo of the aristocratic families under the rule of the Qin Dynasty."


    "The Xun family, too."


    "The people of Xun family, such as Gong Da, Xun Xun, Xun Wenruo, and even the rest of them, are all outside. But the roots of the Xun family are still in Yingchuan county. "


    "The Xunzi family needs a pillar."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "so if Gongda does not become an official, it will be easier to study under the premise of land reform. Even though the Xunzi family has a reputation, it is still declining. It is well known that people go to tea cooler. Gongda is a wise man. He should understand this truth and the cruelty of reality. "


    Xun you was silent when he heard the speech.


    He raised his hand and fumbled for his beard under his jaw. His face, which was full of wrinkles, had a look of wise thinking.


    He was thinking.


    He is weighing his interests.


    Even now that Cao ang has surrendered, it is not necessary for Xun you to become an official at his age. When it comes to power, he once grasped it and saw the benefits it brought. When it comes to wealth, Xunyou didn''t have much desire for wealth. He could eat and drink enough.


    However, Xun you had to consider the Xun family.


    Because home is the country.


    We must ensure the inheritance of the family and the interests of the family.


    This is what Xun you wants to do.


    Xun you took a deep breath and made a decision in his heart. He solemnly said, "Your Majesty, Xun you is willing to surrender. But Xun you didn''t want to be an official. He wanted to go there. "Where does Gongda want to go


    Xun you said, "Chang''an academy!"


    Xunyou knows about Chang''an Academy. Among them are Zheng Xuan, Sima Fang, Yang Biao and other great Confucians. Even Guan Ning, Bing yuan and others are here. It is a good choice for him to preach and teach in such an academy.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "no problem. Since Gongda is determined to be a scholar, go to the Academy. It''s the same whether it''s in the government or in the Academy. "


    Xun you was also relieved and said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    He doesn''t want to be an official any more.


    Academy is the best choice. Now with the consent of Zhang Xiu, she is completely down-to-earth.


    After talking to Xun you again, Zhang Xiu stopped talking to Xun you and asked people to take him back and bring him back. Compared with Xun you, Xun Yu is more pure and has his own bottom line and persistence.


    In history, although Xun Yu worked for Cao Cao, he was always on the side of the Great Han and hoped that the Great Han would prosper. Unfortunately, the Han Dynasty did not have Zhongxing after all, and Xun Yu did not see the prosperous scene he hoped for.


    In this life, the impression of Zhang Xiu is different.


    The great man died early.


    Although Xun Yu was Xun you''s uncle, he was actually younger and had just turned 50. However, he was very worried about government affairs. His temples were already gray. At a glance, he was older than Xun you.


    Fortunately, Xun Yu was extremely spiritual. Even though he was old, he was not decadent. After he entered, he bowed his hands and said with solemnity, "the sinner Xun Yu, has met his Majesty the great Qin emperor."


    Zhang Xiu said, "sit down!"


    "Thank you


    After thanking him, Xun Xun sat down at the bottom.


    Zhang Xiu is still open-minded: "Xun Yu, I have met Xun you. Like Cao ang, he chose to submit to Daqin and serve for me. Even Guo Jia was the same. Guo Jia also chose to be submissive. Now it''s your turn. Are you willing to submit to me? "

 Chapter 1140

    When Xun Yu heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he didn''t hesitate and said, "the great Qin Dynasty ruled the country, and the state of Wei was defeated. Xun Yu is willing to submit to his majesty. However, Xun Yu was defeated and did not care about the government, so he prepared to return to his hometown and write books. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned at this.


    In the presence of Xun Yu, he said that Guo Jia, Cao ang and Xun you were all obedient, which was a bluff to Xun Yu, hoping to make him obedient. In fact, there are no results for the time being.


    Only Zhang Xiu said it directly.


    Anyway, it didn''t affect much. If Xun Yu was directly obedient, he would be the best. If Xun Yu doesn''t comply, it''s no big deal even if Zhang Xiu and Guo Jia do.


    In short, it will not affect the situation.


    Only Xun Yu''s answer made Zhang Xiu a little difficult.


    Xun Yu did not refuse to submit. He chose to submit. However, he did not want to become an official, but wanted to go home and write books. Such a situation involves personal choice and ambition.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Wen Ruo is the most experienced time. At this time, the people who are benefited by writing books are far less than the people who are benefited by you. Are you willing to bury what you have learned? "


    Xun Yu said: "in the imperial court is to benefit the people, at home is also to benefit the people, in fact, there is no difference."


    He ignored the issue of how many people would benefit.


    It doesn''t make any difference.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu knew that Xun Yu was still unwilling to serve the Qin Dynasty.


    According to his family interests, he tried to persuade Xun Yu to become an official. But when Xun Yu heard this, he said, "Your Majesty, Xun you has become an official in the Xun family. He is talented enough to support the Xun family."


    After a pause, Xun Yu induced: "especially I don''t want to go to court. I just want to go home and write books. All these years, I''ve been running around in constant fear. Now, it''s time to stop and have a good rest. "


    A word, blocked to go back to Zhang Xiu.


    Blocked Zhang Xiu''s words.


    It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to persuade Xun Yu with the same reason. Because Xunyou had to consider the Xunzi family, Xunyou finally agreed to become an official and was willing to work for Zhang Xiu.


    However, Xun Yu was not able to work here.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind turned quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, she had an idea and said again: "since Wen wants to write a book, I will complete you. However, he wrote books and theories at home and in the court. As a historian of the Qin Dynasty, you specially compiled historical books. What do you think? "


    Xun Yu was unwilling and said, "Your Majesty, I am not suitable to be a historian."


    "Oh, is Wen Ruo testing my patience?"


    When Zhang Xiu saw that Xun Yu still didn''t cooperate, her eyes became cold. Because he knew Xun Yu''s talent, he didn''t want to leave him in the countryside and throw him into the court.


    Unexpectedly, Xun Yu tried every means to shirk responsibility.


    Never willing.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu''s tone had cooled down and she said in a deep voice: "Wenruo, I gave you face. Don''t you even give me that little face? You are a wise man. You should know that people are mutual. In particular, as the supreme of the ninth five year plan, I give you a choice. If you don''t cooperate, it will affect not only Xunzhou himself, including Xunyou and Xunzhou, but also the whole Xunzi family. "


    Xun Yu''s eyebrows trembled, and a trace of surprise and anger passed in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu is threatening him.


    If Xun Yu was only himself, he would ignore Zhang Xiu''s threat. But the crux of the problem is that this time it involves Xun you and the whole family of Xun family, which Xun Yu can''t ignore.


    Angered Zhang Xiu, the gain is not worth the loss.


    Xun Yu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the rest of the Xun family are innocent. If they are involved, it would be unjust. Moreover, the Xuns abide by the law. If you want to involve the Xuns, you have to have a good reason. "


    After a pause, Xun Yu said again, "Your Majesty asked me to be a historian, and I will write straight. Isn''t your majesty worried that I would mix my personal feelings and defame Your Majesty''s image?"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu hears speech, laugh again.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu stopped laughing, looked at Xun Yu below, and said in a deep voice: "Wen Ruo, how can such a big family of Xun family have no problem, how can it be innocent."


    "As long as you are willing to check, there are always problems."


    "What''s more, do I need any reason to deal with people?"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as for your straightforwardness, what''s my fear? After my death, it''s the business of later generations that I don''t care what future generations will say. I am not afraid of any ugliness. "


    "Wenruo, I''ll give you two choices."


    "First, submit to Daqin."


    "So, Hello, I''m good, everyone is good, each has got something."


    "Second, you insist on going back to the countryside.""Of course, the consequence of doing so is that you and the Xun family will be in a desperate situation. Especially now, without Cao''s support and status in Cao Wei, you can''t protect the Xun family. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what are you going to do?"


    Xun Yu''s old cheek was full of wrinkles, especially his eyes, but they narrowed up, and his deep eyes flashed the look of thinking. But deep in the eyes, there is anger and helplessness.


    Zhang Xiu was so threatening that Xun Yu was helpless.


    Zhang Xiu was so overbearing that Xun Yu was helpless.


    This cannot be resolved.


    He was willing to take a deep breath for his majesty


    He finally made a choice.


    Because Xun Yu had no choice but to do so.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said faintly, "now you are full of reluctance. But in the near future, you will be proud of today''s decision. Daqin is changing with each passing day. The strength of the whole Qin Dynasty will become stronger and stronger day by day. Even to the point where you can''t even imagine it. "


    After hearing this, Xun Yu didn''t agree.


    We are proud of Daqin.


    I''m proud of Daqin.


    How is that possible?


    Xun Yu didn''t say any more. He just asked to leave because he didn''t want to talk to Zhang xiuduo. Zhang Xiu didn''t stay, but let Xun Yu leave, because he still had many things to deal with, and many Cao Wei people didn''t finish.


    As for Cao Wei, Zhang Xiu knows that there are many capable people.


    For example, Cheng Yu, Chen Qun, Liu Ye and others.


    These are talented people.


    Now, these civil and military generals of Cao Wei were all captured, so Zhang Xiu wanted to meet them one by one. When Zhang Xiu continued to meet people, Xun Yu left the Chinese army tent and returned to his camp.


    Because he obeyed Zhang Xiu and was unrestricted, he stayed in his camp for a while, then left and went to Xun you''s camp.


    He wants to see Xun you.


    Because there are some things to discuss with Xun you.

 Chapter 1141

    When Xun Yu entered Xun you''s camp, Xun you immediately got up to greet him and said respectfully, "uncle!"


    Xun Yu nodded and said, "sit down!"


    They took their seats.


    When it comes to age, Xun you is older than Xun Yu. But Xun Yu''s seniority was higher, so even if he was older, he had to be respectful in front of him and didn''t dare to be disrespectful.


    Xun you asked, "what''s the matter with uncle coming to see me?"


    Xun Yu said: "listen to Zhang Xiu, you are obedient to Daqin."


    "Yes


    Xun you nodded.


    After a pause, Xun you said: "uncle has met Zhang Xiu. Then, Zhang Xiu will surely surrender him. I don''t know. Did Uncle ever submit to the great Qin Dynasty or decide to work for Zhang Xiu?"


    Xun Yu said: "there is no way to do that. Zhang Xiu forced me to be the historian of the Qin Dynasty by coercion and inducement, and asked me to write directly. Now, it''s Zhang Xiu. "


    "Zhang Xiu is different from the emperor and his majesty. Although there were no taboos, the means of the former Emperor were extremely brilliant, which made people both awed and willing. We, your majesty, have a softer mind and a softer hand in dealing with matters. "


    "But Zhang Xiu is unscrupulous."


    "As long as it''s good for him, Zhang Xiu can do it."


    Xun Zheng said: "I was forced to become an official. According to my idea, I wanted to resign and go back to seclusion, but Zhang Xiu forced me to threaten. If I didn''t follow, I''m afraid our Xun family would be in danger. So I finally agreed. "


    Xun you sighed: "Zhang Xiu is true, but now my nephew is working in Chang''an Academy. Although the academy is also affiliated to the Qin Dynasty, it''s good that there is no collusion among the officials of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Xun Yu sighed: "Alas..."


    A sigh contains endless helplessness.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, even if Xun Yu and Xun you had great talent, they were helpless, because they had no way to take Zhang Xiu.


    Xun you stroked his beard and said, "uncle, it''s not necessarily a bad thing to follow Zhang Xiu and serve the Qin Dynasty."


    Xun Yu narrowed his eyes, and there was a light in his eyes.


    His eyes are sharp.


    It seems that he wants to expose Xun you''s heart.


    But Xun you didn''t realize it. He said, "uncle, there are three reasons why I say that."


    "First, we have no choice. After all, up to now, the state of Wei has been destroyed, and his majesty has been demoted. The Xunzi family has come to this point, there is no other choice but to submit. How can the Xun family, a hundred year old family, break off the inheritance here? Therefore, we can only look forward, and we can only submit to Zhang Xiu and serve the Qin Dynasty. "


    "Second, Zhang Xiu can be called a hero in terms of ability. In just over ten years, Zhang Xiu has unified the whole world. Its ability, even if it is the former Emperor, can not be compared. Needless to say, today''s emperor is much different from Zhang Xiu. "


    "Third, today''s Daqin is much better than the Qin and Han Dynasties in the past."


    "In the Qin and Han Dynasties, even if they were powerful, could they have such a weapon that could easily break the city? Is there a weapon that can fly through the air? Can there be rice paper, printing and so on? All these are possessed by Daqin. "


    "The land reform of Qin Dynasty is especially vigorous. The strength of Daqin has long been extraordinary. "


    "Daqin is stronger."


    "The future of Daqin is more brilliant."


    Xun you said with a straight face: "put aside their respective positions, carefully say, follow Zhang Xiu, as long as the ability is outstanding, after emerging, will be able to remain in history. In fact, following Zhang Xiu is not a bad thing. It is of great benefit to the Xun family and to you and me. This is my view. "


    When Xun Yu heard this, he also nodded.


    Xun you''s words are reasonable.


    He agreed.


    But Xun Yu also had his own insistence in his heart. Although he once worked for Cao Wei, he hoped that the Great Han would prosper in his heart. However, after Liu Xie''s throne was given to Zhang Xiu, the Great Han Dynasty collapsed, and Xun Yu wholeheartedly planned for the great Wei Dynasty, hoping that the great Wei Dynasty would dominate the world. But I didn''t expect that the state of Wei was also vulnerable in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Xun Yu, from the bottom of his heart, was no longer willing to serve the Qin Dynasty, and was no longer willing to be a second minister.


    This is Xun Yu''s insistence and idea.


    Xunyou continued: "uncle, carefully speaking, there are many talents in Daqin. If we in the Xunzi family want to restore the glory of the past and come to the fore, then the talents of the Xunzi family are bound to take the initiative to become officials. Otherwise, the Xun family will soon be left behind, which I don''t want to see. "


    "In fact, these things, as well as these ideas, are also my thoughts after I returned to Zhang Xiu and went back to the camp. At this point, there is no choice but to look ahead. "


    "Moreover, from the perspective of the Xun family, if we are not inferior to the Pang family, the Huang family, the Sima family and the Yang family, we have to take the initiative to integrate and become a part of them.""Otherwise, there will be no place for the Xun family in the world."


    Xun you solemnly said, "this is my view."


    Xun Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "you mean that you and I have to change our attitude. In addition, we Xunzi family also changed direction and began to work hard for Zhang Xiu and Daqin, striving for the right to speak in Daqin. "


    "Exactly so!"


    Xun you nodded solemnly.


    He is not a bigoted conservative, he is more willing to look forward. Because based on the current environment, if the Xunzi family wants to make a difference and constantly improve their reputation and strength, they can''t be complacent, they must take the initiative to attack.


    Xun Yu''s expression was solemn and thought carefully.


    As Xun you''s uncle, Xun Yu has a high prestige in the Xun family. After all, he has a high rank and prestige.


    After half a sound, Xun Yu said, "Gongda, I believe your judgment. Since you said you want us Xunzi family to change their attitude, we should do it according to you. I can''t affect the development of the Xunzi family just because of my attitude. "


    Xun you''s face showed a smile and said, "my uncle is wise."


    Xun Yu waved his hand and had no choice but to smile.


    He is not wise. If he is wise enough and powerful enough, he will not let the Xunzi family down to this point. You should know that the Xunzi family was able to be proud of the princes and despise the officials, so you can ignore the princes and officials.


    Now it''s different.


    Xun family also needs to develop.


    Xun Yu and Xun you talked carefully about the current situation and their plans and arrangements.


    After they reached an agreement, Xun Yu got up and left. Xun you looked at Xun Yu''s back as he left, with a long sigh of relief and a touch of relief on his face.


    He knew his uncle''s character.


    He knew Xun Yu''s worries.


    That''s exactly the case. Only when Xunyou saw Xunyu, could he have some good words of obedience to the great Qin Dynasty. Such a remark is not only to Xun you himself, but also to Xun Yu.


    Only by enlightening Xun Yu can he solve his inner knot.


    In this way, Xun Yu is Xun Yu.


    Instead of being depressed and indulging in the past.

 Chapter 1142

    Zhang Xiu is located at the border of Lelang County, and has not moved northward for the time being.


    He is waiting for news from Huang Zhong.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not worried about Huang Zhong''s going south to Japan. After all, today''s Japan is still relatively primitive. If we want weapons, there will be no sharp weapons; if we want population, there will be no sufficient population; if we want strength, there will be no strength at all.


    It''s easy for Huang Zhong to get rid of the Cao family who had been brought into Wuzhou.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s view.


    Zhang Xiu stayed for a while, but she also began to deal with the counties in Eastern Liaoning and Lelang county. Gan Ning dispatched troops to sweep all over the country. Then she adjusted the officials of each county one by one and reassigned new officials to firmly control Lelang county and Eastern Liaoning.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu met with Cao Wei''s civil and military generals one by one.


    Whether they were Cao''s generals, Xia Hou''s generals, or even the others who were loyal to Cao Wei, Zhang Xiu met one by one, and then convinced them to surrender.


    In this way, the influence of Cao Wei was completely disintegrated.


    In particular, Cao ang is now obedient, and few people are really willing to die loyal to the Cao family.


    Guo Jia is still loyal.


    However, Guo Jia''s movement is unrestricted. He can go in and out of the barracks normally, but he just follows people around.


    On this day, Guo Jia came to Cao Ang''s camp.


    After Cao Ang''s surrender, he also regained his freedom.


    Not only that, Cao Ang''s food supply and money expenditure are also quite good and unrestricted. Now he has no right to fight, and he is a rich man. Not to mention his status as the head of the Wei Dynasty, he was Zhang Xiu''s eldest brother-in-law and Cao Jie''s elder brother, which was enough to make him rich and secure.


    Now Cao ang is quite relieved.


    The whole person is a lot more spirited.


    The reason is very simple, he no longer has to bear endless responsibilities, no longer has to bear endless pressure. Once Cao ang, as the leader of Cao Wei, shouldered the heavy responsibility of revitalizing Cao Wei and the responsibility of revenge. He did not work hard to strengthen Cao Wei.


    It''s not polite to say that during his several years as the leader of Cao Wei, he never had a stable sleep, never fell asleep in the early morning of the night, and was busy every day.


    There is no time for leisure.


    Because the situation is not good.


    Because it''s revenge.


    But now, Cao ang is completely defeated and becomes Zhang Xiu''s prisoner. He even chooses to surrender to Zhang Xiu and submit to Daqin. On the contrary, his obsession is exhausted and the whole person is relaxed.


    Because there''s no revenge.


    Because I can''t think about more.


    Everything has been powerless, that is to say, today, the food and drink, the day relaxed and comfortable, nothing to consider, is a rich idle man.


    It''s quite leisurely.


    Today, Cao ang, dressed in a blue robe, sits cross legged, with a brush in his hand, pondering. Now, he is writing poetry, but he is short of inspiration, so a poem is always incomplete.


    Cao Cao himself is very talented.


    So is Cao Cao''s son.


    Cao ang, as the eldest of all the scholars in the Cao family, is also very talented. Therefore, Cao ang often wrote poems to express his feelings and thoughts.


    When Cao ang thought hard, he lifted the curtain of the tent door, but saw a middle-aged man stride in.


    This person is Guo Jia.


    After Guo Jia entered, he met Cao ang and said, "minister Guo Jia, meet your majesty."


    The voice came abruptly.


    After all, Cao ang was immersed in the mood of composing poems. When he suddenly heard Guo Jia''s voice, he was shocked. When he saw Guo Jia, he quickly gave a smile on his face and said, "it''s Mr. Guo. Sit down. Please sit down."


    "Thank you


    Guo Jia gave thanks again.


    Cao ang said: "Sir, the state of Wei is dead, and I am no longer the emperor of the state of Wei. There is no need for you to be courteous to me or to call me your majesty. Today''s great Wei has long gone. And I have already surrendered to Zhang Xiu. "


    Guo Jia shook her head.


    He didn''t approve of Cao Ang''s words.


    Guo Jia was silent for a moment, then said: "although your majesty surrendered to Zhang Xiu, it was also a helpless move. But as long as there is a chance, won''t your majesty fight again? But as long as there is a chance to recover Wei, will your majesty give up? Therefore, your majesty is still your majesty, Minister Guo Jia, and will be loyal to the great Wei. "


    Cao ang chuckled, but immediately he stood up and bowed respectfully to Guo Jia.


    It''s a 90 degree gift.


    Cao angxian laughed because he thought that some of Guo Jia''s words were too exaggerated and some were too naive. Today''s great Qin state is flourishing and its strength is becoming stronger and stronger. It must be impossible to recover the great Wei state.


    Cao ang saluted Guo Jia because the state of Wei had already been destroyed. After the state of Wei had completely disappeared, there were loyal officials like Guo Jia who were willing to be loyal to the state of Wei, still willing to support the state of Wei, and still willing to die for the state of Wei.Cao ang is grateful.


    But Guo Jia got up and staggered. He refused to accept Cao Ang''s big gift. He solemnly said, "Your Majesty salutes me. I''m sorry."


    Cao ang said, "Sir, please sit down!"


    Guo Jia sat down after hearing the speech.


    Cao ang was also seated again. His eyes were fixed on Guo Jia. His eyes were very sincere, and he solemnly said: "on this occasion, there are still some gentlemen who are willing to serve and loyal to the state of Wei. That''s the honor of our Cao family and the state of Wei. Thank you very much, Cao ang. But Sir, I don''t want to fight any more now. "


    Guo Jia immediately frowned.


    When he looked at Cao ang, he was quite disappointed, because Cao ang was the emperor of the great Wei Dynasty and the backbone of all Wei people. If even Cao ang had given up, if even Cao ang did not want to recover the great Wei, everything would be meaningless.


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, don''t lose heart. Even in the most difficult situation, there is a chance of survival. In the past, Gou Jian was in such a difficult situation that he finally recovered the state of Yue. "


    When Cao ang heard the speech, he laughed.


    Guo Jia''s words seem to be a relief, but in fact, Cao Ang''s eyes, it is difficult to convince him. Because Cao ang is now out of the way. When he is out of the way, he can see the situation clearly and understand the difficulty of recovering Wei.


    It''s impossible.


    But Guo Jia is not willing to face the reality.


    Guo Jia said, "what is your majesty laughing at?"


    Cao ang zhengse said: "fengxiao, I laugh because I''m not Gou Jian. I don''t have Gou Jian''s ability, forbearance and strength. Even if Gou Jian was defeated, he preserved the state of Yue. "


    "Now, does the state of Wei exist?"


    "The state of Wei no longer exists."


    "Gou Jian is patient and tenacious, while Fu Chai, the king of Wu, is headstrong and self righteous, and even expels the virtuous. But what about Zhang Xiu? Zhang Xiu is a man of virtue and ability. He is determined to reform and keep forging ahead, which makes the Qin Dynasty more and more powerful. "


    "I''m not Gou Jian."


    "Zhang Xiu is not the king of Wu."


    Cao ang solemnly said, "filial piety, I appreciate your willingness to be loyal to Dawei and your willingness to honor me as your majesty. But now I see it. "


    "The great Wei state has become the past. Now it is the state of Qin that dominates the whole country. "


    "Just as in the past, the Han Dynasty unified the whole country, while the rest of the countries were destroyed, so there was no chance. Especially in today''s Daqin, people are stable and enterprising. "


    Cao ang said: "under this premise, there is no chance for the state of Wei."


    After Guo Jia heard this, there was a touch of helplessness and despair between her eyebrows.


    It''s not that he doesn''t know about it.


    I just don''t want to face it.


    Now Cao ang said that the red naked naked exposed the status quo, and Guo Jia was in the most sad mood. He didn''t want to see the great Wei perish, let alone surrender.


    However, nothing can be done.


    At this moment, Guo Jia seems to have lost the pillar of his heart. In his bright and deep eyes, fog suddenly rises. That crystal clear tear light, twinkles in the eye son to revolve, but the tear actually never falls.


    Don''t play with tears!


    Only, not to the sad place.


    Today''s Guo Jia, heart incomparable loss, but also incomparable decadence.


    Dawei, dead!

 Chapter 1143

    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia sobbing, his face was also sad. He is the emperor of the great Wei state, and the great Wei state belongs to the Cao family. Now that the great Wei is dead, he has become a prisoner. Can he not be lost?


    It must be lost.


    Can we not despair?


    It must be hopeless.


    However, Cao ang could not do anything, because he was a prisoner.


    Cao ang took a deep breath to stabilize his impetuous mood and said, "fengxiao, thank you! Because of you, let me see the pulse of Cao Wei, there are some diehard people. It''s just that I let you down. "


    Guo Jia stared at Cao ang with tears in her eyes, even sobbing. When Dou Da''s tears came down, Guo Jia could no longer control her emotions.


    He folded his hands and bowed to Cao ang.


    This is a big gift.


    Guo Jiajiu bowed ten times and left without saying much.


    Cao ang looked at Guo Jia who had left, his eyes were a little confused, because he was stimulated by Guo Jia, and his heart was also very lost. However, Cao ang could not do anything. He knew that it was impossible to shake Daqin.


    "Alas..."


    A sigh came from Cao Ang''s mouth.


    Cao ang took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone in an irritable mood, and began to polish and write in order to calm his mood.


    Guo Jia came out of Cao Ang''s camp and wiped away his tears, but his eyes were a little red. He went straight back to his camp and sat down. Although he was in a bit of a mess, in fact, after Guo Jia''s mood began to subside, his inner obsession had dissipated.


    He is no longer dedicated to the restoration of Cao Wei.


    He was no longer attached to Cao Cao''s kindness.


    He no longer insists on fighting back against Zhang Xiu.


    Everything has been put down.


    In particular, Guo Jia has long been informed that Xun you, Xun Yu, Chen Qun, Liu Ye and other former literary officials of the Cao Wei Dynasty, as well as Zhang Liao, Yu Jin and other military generals of the Cao Wei Dynasty, have all been subordinated to Zhang Xiu.


    These people are all submissive, and each of them has moved forward. What else does he insist on?


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, there was a voice outside the camp.


    A soldier entered, bowed to Guo Jia and said, "Mr. Guo, your majesty, please come with me."


    Guo Jiashen took a breath, then stood up and said, "let''s go!"


    He''s adjusted.


    It also calmed the mood.


    Guo Jia left with the soldiers. After a short time, he entered Zhang Xiu''s camp, bowed to Zhang Xiu and stood in the camp. He didn''t flatter Zhang Xiu because Zhang Xiu was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "fengxiao, today, I have seen all the civil servants and military generals of the state of Wei. From Cao ang, Xun Yu, Xun you and so on, down to the ordinary generals in the army, they have all surrendered. All of these people have been assigned official positions and have begun to perform their duties in new posts. Now, you''re the only one left. If you want to be filial, you can submit to Daqin. "


    Guo Jia said, "what position do I take when I submit to Daqin?"


    Zhang Xiu was glad to see that Guo Jia no longer insisted. Moreover, Zhang Xiu knows Guo Jia''s whereabouts and knows that Guo Jia went to see Cao ang. She speculates that Guo Jia''s change is probably due to the influence of Cao ang.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "you submit to me, I specially set up a department in the army, and you will be the head of the Department."


    "What department?" Guo said


    He was a little curious about what position Zhang Xiu would give him.


    Is it a nominal title or a real power.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the new Department I intend to set up is called the General Staff Department, which is a military organ specialized in operational command. Whenever there is a war, the order comes from the general staff and is issued and executed by the military department. The general staff is directly responsible to me, not even under the jurisdiction of the cabinet. "


    Guo Jia''s eyebrows rose and she was surprised.


    According to Zhang Xiu, the general staff is actually independent, and its authority is higher than that of the Ministry of war. If the general staff department formulates a military strategy, then the military department is only implementing it and has no decision-making power.


    Because the decision-making power is in the hands of the general staff.


    In particular, the general staff is not under the jurisdiction of the cabinet, which means that military power is divided separately.


    This is the real power department.


    Guo Jiashen took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty has entrusted me with a heavy task. Are you not afraid that I will act recklessly and even put in confidants to stir up the army after I take charge of the general staff?"


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "although the general staff is responsible for military operations and military command, in fact, I have to agree with the mobilization of the general staff. Without my approval, the general staff will issue decision-making orders, which will not be implemented. So the final decision-making power is still in my hands. Therefore, I don''t worry about your random placement of confidants. "


    "Especially you Guo Jia, a great scholar, I believe in you."


    "If you don''t, you don''t."


    "But now that you have chosen to surrender, I believe that Guo Jia''s words are hard to trace.""I believe in Guo Jia''s character."


    Zhang Xiu straightened out: "because in my eyes, Guo Jia alone is worth tens of thousands of troops. Guo Jia alone is trustworthy. Guo Jia''s name is a gold lettered signboard. "


    After hearing this, Guo Jia was quite moved.


    Zhang Xiu gave him so much trust that he was very grateful.


    After all, Guo Jia and Zhang Xiu were enemies.


    Zhang Xiu said, "fengxiao, I can tell you. Even if today''s Daqin has ruled the country, the war in Daqin will never subside, let alone let Ma Nanshan go. "


    "The military front of the Qin Dynasty will go further."


    "Before that, when I went north to attack Wuhuan and Wei, I got the news of the western regions. In the western regions, there are Hu sentries from various countries in the western regions who gather in Liangzhou. "


    "In the western regions, there may be war."


    Zhang Xiu said with a straight face: "in fact, even if there is no movement in the western regions, I will expand to the West. Daqin can not only be limited to the current territory, Daqin must be enterprising and must expand. Only in this way can the development of Daqin become stronger and stronger from generation to generation. "


    Guo Jia nodded.


    Zhang Xiu has a point. Daqin can''t graze Nanshan, and can''t be so reckless. Only a enterprising Daqin can go further and surpass the Qin and Han Dynasties.


    Guo Jia had made a decision in his heart, so he didn''t hesitate any more. He folded his hands and bowed himself to say, "Guo Jia, I''d like to meet your majesty! Guo Jia, willing to serve your majesty, this life this life, never betray. If you disobey this oath, heaven will strike thunder. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I have to be filial and have no worries."


    With such a great sage as Guo Jia, Zhang Xiu''s staff is a great filling. After all, most of the counselors under Zhang Xiu''s command have their own positions, while others such as Zhang song have certain abilities, but in fact, they are difficult to take charge of the staff. Guo Jia is the right person.


    With the staff headquarters, the reform of the army has been further improved.


    Moreover, it would be more reasonable for the army to March and fight when it is summed up by the general staff.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s idea.


    After Zhang Xiu surrendered Guo Jia, she still stayed in Lelang county.


    Time goes by day, and in the twinkling of an eye, October comes. In October in Lelang County, it was cold and cold, especially when the cold wind blew on his face. It was as uncomfortable as a knife.


    On this day, Wang Yue came to the big account of the Chinese army in a hurry.


    Wang Yue''s face was quite solemn. After seeing Zhang Xiu, he reported: "Your Majesty, the news is coming back from Wozhou. The army led by Huang Zhong was defeated and now retreated to the port of Wozhou. Please read the details of the war. "


    With that, Wang Yue handed over a letter.


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    Huang Zhong was defeated.


    And it was a fiasco.


    How is this possible? You know, the flying bear army led by Huang Zhong and the water army of the Qin Dynasty are enough to sweep the Japanese army. After all, there were not many Japanese soldiers in Caozhou. In fact, in Zhang Xiu''s view, even without Huang Zhong''s Feixiong army, the water army of the Qin Dynasty alone was enough to wipe out the Cao army in the Japanese state.


    But unexpectedly, Huang Zhong was defeated.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and scanned it quickly. He looked down at it at a glance. After watching it, his face was shocked. The reason for Huang Zhong''s defeat was not because of Cao''s powerful army, but because of the changes in the Japanese side.


    That''s why Huang Zhong lost.

 Chapter 1144

    As a war leader, it''s common to win and lose. Under normal circumstances, even if Huang Zhong is defeated, it has no effect. But the problem is, according to the information sent back, the name of the person who defeated Huang Zhong is Tokugawa Jiakang.


    Others don''t know about Tokugawa, but Zhang Xiu does.


    Tokugawa is not only the famous Sanhe in the Warring States period, but also the first shogunate general in the Edo period. According to normal history, Tokugawa was born more than 1000 years later. But now, it appeared in the late Han Dynasty, which shocked Zhang Xiu.


    Of course, if the name is simply Tokugawa Jiakang, Zhang Xiu will not be shocked, because it may be a duplicate name.


    But in addition to Tokugawa Jiakang, there are also swordsmen like Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro in Japan. Even when Huang Zhong fought with Miyamoto Musashi, he was defeated by Miyamoto Musashi.


    Huang Zhong today is no better than he was in the past.


    I''m getting old.


    It''s almost sixty years old.


    Even though Huang Zhong''s explosive power is still there, his long-term combat power has been weakened a lot. In particular, the other side has Miyamoto Musashi, the first master of the Japanese state. Huang ZHONGJIU''s fighting strength is exhausted, so he can''t defeat Miyamoto Musashi.


    No matter Tokugawa, Miyamoto Musashi or Sasaki Kojiro, they are all descendants of the Japanese nation. But now, they all appear in the Japanese.


    In addition, intelligence also said that before the Japanese, there was no such group of people as Tokugawa. These people suddenly appeared when Huang Zhong was about to annihilate the Cao family.


    Its military strength is no less than 60000. Such a force is extremely powerful. In particular, the other side also has gunpowder, which can be used to attack on the battlefield.


    All this information, Zhang Xiu can determine, Tokugawa Jiakang a people, is in some reason, just suddenly appeared in the Japanese. What is the reason, Zhang Xiu is not known.


    After all, he can be reborn.


    So it''s not strange that something like Tokugawa Jiakang happened.


    Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes and murmured to herself: "if you arrived in Japan more than ten years earlier, maybe everything would be different. But now, I''m in control. Even if you have tens of thousands of troops, you are also looking for death. "


    In the words, there is a sense of war.


    More confident.


    Zhang Xiu has full confidence, can destroy the Tokugawa Jiakang a people.


    What''s more, Zhang Xiu has never had a good impression on the people of the Japanese nation. She is eager to wipe out the Japanese nation and level the people of the Japanese nation. In fact, in later generations, Zhang Xiu wished she had been born in the Anti Japanese period and could fight ghosts in the battlefield.


    Today, the Japanese nation has changed.


    There''s a group of people coming through.


    That''s interesting.


    Zhang Xiu''s current strength, he is not afraid, and even if Huang Zhong is defeated for the first time, but Zhang Xiu next, is ready to transfer troops to. Originally, Zhang Xiu didn''t plan to land in Japan, but now, Zhang Xiu wants to go there in person.


    He''s going to do it himself.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    When a servant entered, Zhang Xiu said, "go to inform Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, Pang Tong, Gan Ning, Lu Bu and shamoko to come to see me."


    "Here it is


    The internal servant was ordered to go on immediately.


    Lu Bu and shamoko were always in the army and went to war with Zhang Xiu. But in this battle, there were few real battles before the battle, so that Lubu and shamoko did not go to the battlefield.


    Soon, Pang Tong, Gan Ning, Lu Bu and shamoko joined hands. The rest Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others also followed.


    They all came together and were curious.


    They stayed in Lelang County for some time, but during this time, they almost had nothing to do in the army and were busy with their own affairs. Now, everyone is called together. It can be seen that something big has happened.


    Zhang Xiu looked around and said quickly what happened to the Japanese nation. Finally, she said, "the Japanese nation, Tokugawa Jiakang, defeated Huang Zhong. Now that Huang Zhong retreats to the harbor, we need to go south to Japan and fight against Tokugawa Jiakang. "


    Guo Jia narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, who is Tokugawa Jiakang? Before that, Cao Wei''s troops were stationed in Wuzhou. From the beginning to the end, he never heard of Tokugawa Jiakang, nor did he know that Miyamoto Musashi could rival Huang Zhong. "


    "Even Tokugawa has 60000 or 70000 people."


    "Even gunpowder."


    "In the past, if there were Tokugawa Jiakang, they would have more powerful weapons. It was absolutely impossible for Cao Wei''s troops to have a foothold in Wuzhou. But now, it suddenly appears. "


    There was a wise look in Guo Jia''s eyes, and he said: "the sudden appearance of these people is really strange. After all, it has been several years since Wuzhou was governed by Cao Wei. It''s impossible for us to have so many people out of thin air. "


    Xun Yu echoed: "what Guo fengxiao said is very true. In the aspect of Wozhou, the situation is somewhat strange."


    Other people who had previously belonged to Cao Wei also spoke one after another.


    Because once, there was no such person as Tokugawa.They find it strange.


    Zhang Xiu knows the reason, but she doesn''t explain anything.


    Even if the explanation, people do not understand.


    This matter, as if he had already existed, so Zhang Xiu said: "now Tokugawa Jiakang leads the public to appear, defeats Huang Zhong, and quickly takes charge of the Japanese state. In particular, Tokugawa Yasukuni was originally a Japanese. As soon as he appeared, the Japanese who were suppressed would quickly gather around Tokugawa Yasukuni and form a stronger force. "


    "Tokugawa''s strength will be stronger."


    "Now it is meaningless to investigate the origin and origin of Tokugawa Jiakang. After all, he already exists. What we need to do now is to defeat Tokugawa Jiakang. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "do you have any suggestions for this war going south?"


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, even if Tokugawa is not weak, even if he has a master like Miyamoto Musashi, even if he is strong. But for me, Daqin, he is still no match. So we just need to attack directly. With the warships of the Qin Dynasty, carrying all the troops, they went straight south to Wuzhou to wipe out Tokugawa Jiakang. "


    For Tokugawa Jiakang, Pang Tong is still ignored.


    After all, it''s not a big country.


    Moreover, tens of thousands of troops are not enough to be afraid of.


    Guo Jia nodded and echoed: "Your Majesty, I agree with Mr. Pang. There is no need to make a plan for the Japanese troops like Tokugawa Jiakang. They just need to go south. After the troops arrived in Japan, they made plans according to the local conditions. Especially when we are here, we just rely on Huang Zhong''s analysis of the war reports. I don''t know the specific situation. "


    Xun Yu''s face was calm. Although he was a historian appointed by Zhang Xiu, he didn''t hide himself when it came to war. He said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, it''s already October. It''s freezing, and materials are beginning to be scarce. The transportation of grain is becoming difficult. If you want to go south now, you have to make it as early as possible. After all, after a while, it will be more and more difficult to go south. Sailing on the sea will be more difficult. "


    Xun you said: "in a word, we should go down to the South first, and then consider the matter of destroying Tokugawa Jiakang."


    Everyone put forward suggestions.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought about it and nodded: "if that''s the case, then prepare to send troops. Ganning, you immediately arrange to go down, mobilize the army to prepare to board the warship, we are ready to go south


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others and said, "all of you will go with me to Wuzhou."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Zhang Xiu asked Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others to step down, leaving Wang Yue alone. He looked at Wang Yue and said, "you should dispatch the royal guards to Chang''an to send more troops to Liaodong, so as to prevent accidents in Liaodong. In addition, Cao ang and other members of Cao''s family were closely monitored. If there is any change during this period, the first action will be executed and the second action will be executed


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded with awe.


    At this time, Wang Yue was clear about the weight and how to arrange it.

 Chapter 1145

    In the barracks, Cao Ang''s camp.


    Today, Cao ang is quite relaxed and has little to do.


    After all, no official is light.


    He had no responsibility, that is, he should eat and drink, and Cao ang had time to think about some past things. It is reasonable to say that Cao Cao died in Zhang Xiu''s hands. Cao ang should hate Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu is his younger sister and younger brother. In addition, Cao Cao''s death in battle was the result of the war between the two armies. Therefore, Cao ang didn''t have much burden in his heart, and had nothing to hate Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t kill the Cao family, and didn''t implicate the innocent. For the people of the Cao family, it was already a great preferential treatment.


    "Hoo


    All of a sudden, the tent curtain lifted, but saw a thin shadow into.


    It was Cao Zhang, not someone else.


    This time, Cao Zhang stayed in Lelang county to fight with Zhang Xiu. He didn''t go south to evacuate. He was always by Cao Ang''s side. After Cao ang surrendered, Cao Zhang also surrendered with him.


    After all, there is no choice.


    Cao ang looked up to see Cao Zhang coming and said, "brother Zhang, why are you here?"


    Cao Zhang sat down, lowered his voice and said in a deep voice: "brother, I just got the news that Zhang Xiu has mobilized a large army to go south to Wuzhou. It''s said that something went wrong with the Japanese state. A Japanese army was born, led by a man named Tokugawa Jiakang, who led the army to defeat Huang Zhong. "


    "Our men, though defeated."


    "But the army of the Qin Dynasty was defeated in Wuzhou, so that Zhang Xiu had to go south in person."


    "Zhang Xiu went south and took all the troops."


    "In this way, Lelang county and even Liaodong are less awed by Zhang Xiu. And there are no fetters around us. It''s an opportunity for us. "


    "If you miss this chance, I''m afraid you''ll never have another chance," Cao said


    Cao ang put down his book and said, "brother Zhang, what chance do you want? Is it taking advantage of Zhang Xiu''s departure to recapture Lelang county and Liaodong County, or seizing the opportunity to flee? "


    Cao Zhang zhengse way: "since it is to take back Lelang county and Liaodong County, and then take advantage of the situation to cut off the back road of Zhang Xiu.". If Zhang Xiu wanted to go south to Wuzhou, he had to rely on Liaodong''s grain supply. Once we cut off the back road of Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu is isolated and helpless in Wozhou, and is likely to be defeated. At that time, Zhang Xiu even had to die in Wozhou. If you lose Zhang Xiu, you will be in chaos. "


    When Cao ang heard this, he shook his head.


    Seeing that Cao ang didn''t speak, Cao Zhang frowned and raised his voice slightly. He said, "brother, did you forget your father''s hatred and our kingdom of Wei, which was destroyed by Zhang Xiu?"


    Cao ang said, "I didn''t forget it!"


    Cao Zhang said: "since you haven''t forgotten it, you can do it. Anyway, we have to fight for it. "


    Cao ang said: "even so, do you think Zhang Xiu will not consider what you can consider? People like Zhang Xiu are extremely cunning. Since he chose to send troops, how could he not be on guard. Even in my opinion, Zhang Xiu''s going out to fight was intended to make us think that we have a chance to take advantage of it so as to deal with us. "


    On hearing this, Cao Zhang frowned.


    This is what he didn''t consider. He only thought of the emptiness after Zhang Xiu left, but he forgot that Zhang Xiu may be deliberately fierce, and he specially arranged a dangerous situation, waiting for them to get in.


    Just then, a valet entered.


    This attendant is Cao Ang''s personal follower.


    So we can get in and out normally.


    Pro then came to Cao Ang''s side and reported: "master, Mr. Guo is here."


    "Please


    Cao ang said.


    I''ll turn around and tell you.


    Today, Cao ang is no longer the emperor of the Wei state. The title of Cao ang has also changed. It is no longer his majesty, but the title of the head of his family to show his respect for Cao ang.


    Soon, Guo Jia entered.


    After Guo Jia came in and bowed to him, he didn''t speak. Cao ang took the initiative to say, "Sir, what''s the matter?"


    Cao ang had a certain reason for Guo Jia''s surrender to Zhang Xiu. Cao ang was the first to surrender to Zhang Xiu. Cao ang even said that he did not want to fight any more, so Guo Jia finally chose to surrender to Zhang Xiu.


    Cao ang only apologized to Guo Jia.


    Because he failed Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia lifted his robe, sat down, looked at Cao Zhang, and then said, "Zixiu, I''ve come here to remind you that when your majesty leaves Lelang County, you must restrain the people of the Cao family, and don''t have any ideas."


    Zixiu is Cao Ang''s character.


    Now it is no longer the relationship between monarch and minister, and there is a difference in age between the two sides, so Guo Jia''s address to Cao ang is a sign.


    As soon as Guo yinxiu thought of Zhang yinxiu, he didn''t think about everything. When you are leaving, you have to entrust us with a special task. What a good intention


    "Shut up


    When Cao ang heard Cao Zhang''s words, he yelled.He said in a deep voice: "Mr. Guo''s heart, you know, I know. No one can blame Mr. Guo. Zhang Di, apologize to Mr. Guo immediately. "


    When Cao Zhang heard this, he also knew that everyone had surrendered, including him, but Guo Jia did not surrender. Cao ang finally persuaded Guo Jia to surrender.


    Cao Zhang took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "I''m sorry, Mr. Guo. My mouth stinks. Please forgive me."


    Guo Jia said: "no harm!"


    Cao ang said, "Mr. Guo, did you hear something?"


    Guo Jia shook her head and said, "it''s not that I heard any news, but that this time when her majesty leads the army out, she will leave behind to prevent trouble in Lelang county and Liaodong county. Such an arrangement is human nature. If your majesty doesn''t make arrangements, it''s not your majesty. Therefore, I came here specially to remind Zixiu that he must restrain the people of the Cao family and never do things beyond his reach. "


    After hearing this, Cao ang nodded and said, "Mr. Guo''s reminder, Cao ang sincerely remembers. Cao ang, thank Mr. Guo on behalf of the Cao family. "


    Guo Jia said: "no need to thank you. I just hope that my Lord''s descendants can live in peace at this stage. At least, it''s a safe and prosperous life. "


    Lord is the name of Cao Cao.


    This time Guo Jia comes to talk about Cao ang, that is to say, it depends on Cao Cao''s face, otherwise he won''t come.


    When Cao ang heard Guo Jia mention Cao Cao, he solemnly said, "don''t worry, sir. I understand."


    Guo Jia said: "goodbye!"


    He stopped staying, got up and left.


    Cao ang personally escorted Guo Jia away, turned back to the camp, looked at Cao Zhang and said, "brother Zhang, you should understand what Mr. Guo said, even you, me and Mr. Guo understand. Will Zhang Xiu not make arrangements? Put away all your thoughts. When you go back, you will also restrain the people of the Cao family. Do you understand? "


    Cao Zhang sighed and said, "I understand!"


    At this moment, Cao Zhang''s little agitation disappeared completely. In Cao Ang''s and Guo Jia''s eyes, they were all holes under Zhang xiubu''s cloth. Under this premise, Cao Zhang will not have the mind to toss again, otherwise in the end, it will be the Cao family.


    Cao ang waved his hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Cao Zhang stood up and left.


    Cao ang sat alone in the tent, looking at the swinging curtain of the tent door, and murmured, "this time, I''m not going to do it. This time, I bet with heaven. If Zhang Xiu goes to the war of Wozhou, and Zhang Xiu is defeated in Wozhou, and her indomitable victory is broken, then I will toss again. "


    "No matter what, fight again."


    "But if Zhang Xiu sweeps Wuzhou, I, Cao ang, will accept my life and be honest in my life."


    "Heaven is witness to this."


    Cao ang murmured to himself. His voice was so small that he could only hear it. Although Cao Ang''s heart had already extinguished his fighting mind, it was based on Zhang Xiu''s sweeping eight wastelands and Zhang Xiu''s position in Chang''an.


    If Zhang Xiu is defeated in Wozhou, the situation is different.


    This is Cao Ang''s mind, even if Cao ang is no longer tossing, but deep in his heart, there is always a trace of unwilling, there is a little bit of wild hope.

 Chapter 1146

    Japan, Tottori county.


    This place is close to the coastline. It is one of the ports that landed in Japan by sea when going south from Lelang county. Both the ships of the Wei Dynasty and the warships of the Qin Dynasty landed from the estuary of Niaodao county.


    Now, not far from the mouth of the sea, there is an army stationed.


    In the barracks, the great banner of the Qin Dynasty stands.


    This is the army led by Huang Zhong.


    Inside the camp, the Chinese army has a big account.


    Huang Zhong looked at his generals and said in a deep voice, "we are now stationed at the entrance of the sea, waiting for your Majesty''s army to come. Now, have the fortifications been properly arranged? "


    "It''s set up."


    All of them answered.


    For all, they want to fight again. Because before, when he was fighting with Cao Wei army, he was suddenly attacked, so that he was caught off guard and defeated by Tokugawa Jiakang.


    However, Huang Zhong also knew that Tokugawa Jiakang could not allow him to stay in the port, and was bound to destroy him. Therefore, Huang Zhongcai arranged fortifications one after another to prepare for another battle with Tokugawa Jiakang.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, soldiers came in.


    The soldier came to the camp with a quick look and reported: "general, the sentry has sent back the latest information. The army led by Tokugawa Jiakang has killed us. It''s less than a day and a half away from us. "


    Huang Zhong was calm when he heard that.


    A day and a half.


    There is still a day and a half left for him to prepare better.


    Now, Huang Zhong has less than 6000 troops. Under such a premise, Huang Zhong must take defense as attack, delay time, and strive to wait until the arrival of Zhang Xiu.


    This is Huang Zhong''s plan.


    Huang Zhong waved the soldiers back and looked at the generals in the army again. He asked them to perform their duties and do their own work, so as to prepare for the next war.


    On the official road to Tottori county.


    An army, moving fast.


    The soldiers of this army, though not tall, were quite strong and vigorous. They are dressed like Japanese people.


    This army is the Japanese army.


    The leader is kazuka Tokugawa. He is in his early 30s and is in his prime. Around him are his counselor Abe Boya and his tiger general Miyamoto Musashi.


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s travel is quite strange.


    He was already dead.


    There is no more vitality, no more anything, no more consciousness. However, he suddenly returned to the Japanese state in the late Han Dynasty, and even had a group of literary officials and tiger generals around him. Even Musashi, once not affiliated to him, became his generals.


    Tokugawa was surprised.


    Tokugawa''s memory of his last life is very clear. He knew very well that he was living again. On the contrary, the civil and military generals under his command did not have this kind of consciousness and seemed to follow him.


    In this case, Tokugawa finally believed that this was God''s blessing. When God sent him back to Japan in the early years, he was specially asked to prosper Japan.


    After Tokugawa Jiakang passed through, he did not act rashly. Tokugawa''s character is extremely cautious. He is very steady, so he first inquires about the news.


    But after he inquired about the news, he was shocked.


    The state of Japan is not the state of Japan in history.


    A great man separated by a river is not a great man in history.


    As the founder of the Japanese shogunate in Edo period, Tokugawa is not only familiar with the history of the Japanese state, but also with the history of the Han Dynasty.


    At the end of the Han Dynasty, Cao Wei unified, but eventually the three families returned to Jin. But now, he got the news that Cao Cao died early, and Zhang Xiu, the warlord general at the end of the Han Dynasty, unified the whole Han Dynasty and ended the troubled times.


    This is not the history that Tokugawa is familiar with, so Tokugawa''s heart is quite dignified, because history has already changed direction and has not been carried out according to the situation he is familiar with.


    Under this premise, Tokugawa has no advantage of the prophet.


    Fortunately, Tokugawa''s strength is strong enough.


    He has a total of 60000 elite soldiers under his command.


    In addition, there are weapons such as gunpowder in the army. Craftsmen in the army can mine raw materials to make weapons.


    With this premise, Tokugawa is more confident.


    In particular, Tokugawa Jiakang specifically inquired about the prisoners. The big Han on the opposite side, no, should be the big Qin. Although the whole world has been unified, in fact, although the big Qin is strong, there is no such advanced weapon as gunpowder.


    This is what Tokugawa is most proud of.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this moment, the sentinel galloping.


    The sentry came to Tokugawa Jiakang''s side, turned over, dismounted, knelt down and saluted, and said, "I inform your majesty that our sentry has found that the troops of the Qin Dynasty are stationed at the port of entering the sea near the sea in Tottori county. Today, the Qin army is building fortifications to resist our army. "Today, Tokugawa has become emperor of Japan.


    He''s not a shogunate general.


    Because there is no emperor in this era, Tokugawa can replace him and become the real emperor.


    Tokugawa said, "let''s explore again!"


    "Yes


    The sentry turned and stepped down.


    Tokugawa looked at Abe Boya, a counselor on one side, and said in a deep voice, "Abe, the commander-in-chief of the great Qin Dynasty, is clearly not strong enough to compete with us. Unexpectedly, he did not leave, still stationed in the port into the sea. It seems that he really wants to fight with us to the end and is ready to die! "


    Abe said: "Your Majesty the emperor, the commander-in-chief of Daqin, stayed at the port to delay time. In short, the other side will adopt any plan that is conducive to procrastination. "


    "Delusion!"


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s face was cold and scornful.


    He doesn''t like Huang Zhong.


    When it comes to martial arts, Huang Zhong is old and has lost out on Miyamoto Musashi.


    In terms of ability, the older generation is not worth mentioning.


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s big sleeve flicked and said: "the order goes on, and the army advances at full speed. This time, the Japanese army of our country will defeat the Qin army completely and show its power. "


    "Here it is


    The sentry is ordered to go down immediately.


    Abe Boya said: "Your Majesty, Huang Zhong of Daqin, who is stationed at the entrance to the sea, actually has some use value."


    Tokugawa''s eyes narrowed and asked, "what''s the use value?"


    Abe said: "when we arrived at Haikou, we captured each other and stationed our troops there. When Daqin''s army went south from Lelang County, we used this group of Daqin officers and men to threaten Zhang Xiu, making him helpless. "


    "Wonderful


    When Tokugawa heard this, he was smiling.


    Abe''s strategy is indeed excellent, and can make full use of the value of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty.

 Chapter 1147

    After adopting Abe''s strategy, Tokugawa once again ordered full speed forward. The army continued on their way to the entrance of Tottori county.


    The original journey of more than one day, under the strong command of Tokugawa Jiakang, was abruptly shortened to within one day, and it had already arrived at the port of the entrance to the sea, close to Huang Zhong''s barracks.


    A large army, outside the barracks.


    Tokugawa Jiakang, with his armor on top and his sword hanging from his waist, rode his horse. He stood in front of the army, looking at the strict barracks, his eyes showed a touch of disdain.


    Even if the Qin army is powerful, what can it do?


    The same is not against him.


    In the land of Japan, he is the real king and the real master. Of course, Tokugawa Jiakang knew that the Japanese country where he lived was too small to be compared with the Qin Dynasty. But Tokugawa Jiakang had gunpowder and other weapons. He thought that he was stronger and could attack the Qin Dynasty.


    "Where is Huang Zhong?" he exclaimed? I am emperor Tokugawa of Japan. "


    He once captured some Qin soldiers.


    Through these people, I learned about Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong is also at the gate of the camp. Although he has white temples, his spirit is good.


    When he heard Tokugawa Jiakang''s shouting, he replied: "this general is Huang Zhong. Tokugawa Jiakang, even if you lead a large army here and want to break this general''s camp, it''s wishful thinking. The last time you won, it was just a sneak attack. If Ben had been prepared, you would not have succeeded. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Tokugawa heard this, he laughed.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    A defeated general is brave.


    It''s rampant.


    Tokugawa Yasunari said: "you are just Huang Zhong. You are old. In front of my general Miyamoto Musashi, you are nothing but a local chicken and a local dog. Now, it''s rampant. "


    Huang Zhong''s face turned black when he heard that.


    His eyes were full of anger.


    Although he was defeated by Miyamoto Musashi, in fact, he was not really defeated.


    Huang Zhong held the sword in his hand and said coldly, "Tokugawa Jiakang, you should know exactly what''s going on. At that time, the general led the army to fight with the Wei army. After a fierce battle, his physical strength declined and his strength was weak. Then he met Miyamoto Musashi. If not, how could Ben be defeated by Miyamoto Musashi? "


    "Huang Zhong, you dare to fight."


    At this time, behind Tokugawa, a middle-aged man with a rather strong body came out.


    This man is Musashi Miyamoto.


    Miyamoto Musashi''s physique is very big. He is 170 cm tall, and he is quite big and handsome. He was dressed in a black Samurai suit, with a samurai sword at his waist, his hand on the handle, and his eyes were sharp.


    Black eyes staring at Huang Zhong, as if to penetrate Huang Zhong''s heart.


    This time, Musashi Miyamoto challenged again.


    Hearing this, Huang Zhong sneered and gritted his teeth: "last time, you attacked Miyamoto Musashi, so you chopped him on his left shoulder, leaving a half foot long wound. It''s only been a few days, and you challenge again. You know how to take advantage of the fire. "


    Miyamoto Musashi is not good at verbal confrontation, and he is not used to taking advantage of the fire. Hearing Huang Zhong''s words, he immediately turned his head and looked at Tokugawa Jiakang, waiting for his decision.


    Tokugawa said: "Miyamoto, fight!"


    "Yes


    Miyamoto Musashi was ordered to move forward again, and finally came to the middle of the two armies. At this moment, Miyamoto Musashi had drawn his sword out of its sheath, pointed at Huang Zhong and said, "Huang Zhong, how dare you fight?"


    Huang Zhong''s face is very blue.


    His generals were filled with righteous indignation.


    Damn it!


    The hearts of the generals were not reconciled. As a matter of fact, they have all seen the martial arts of Miyamoto Musashi. This man''s swordsmanship is really brilliant, and his killing power is extremely strong. Moreover, he appears and disappears in a supernatural way, and his speed is extremely fast. They are not rivals.


    However, people are not reconciled.


    They are worried about Huang Zhong''s injury.


    "General, please fight. You can''t deal with Miyamoto Musashi yourself. "


    Some of the generals came out to fight.


    "General, please fight."


    "General, this battle will be handed over to the general. Even if it is defeated, at least it will be able to block the attack of Miyamoto Musashi. Even if he is strong, it is not easy for him to defeat the last general


    The generals, one after another, asked to fight.


    These people''s faces are full of indignation and courage. For them, if they can save Huang Zhong, even if they pay their own lives, it is worth it.


    Huang Zhong was also deeply moved.


    It''s enough to have subordinates like this!


    Huang Zhong''s big sleeve brushed and said: "Ben Jiang''s injury has almost recovered. Even now, it doesn''t matter. Miyamoto Musashi, in particular, is a very good swordsman. You are not rivals. You go to war, only to increase casualties. In this battle, it is up to the general to fight. What''s more, this battle was meant to challenge me, not you. ""No, general!"


    "Please take care of your health, general!"


    "The general''s body has just recovered. Once he goes to battle, the scabby wound will probably crack. At that time, the injury, which was close to recovery, will be more serious


    The crowd tried to persuade again.


    They don''t want Huang Zhong to fight.


    They are worried about Huang Zhong''s health.


    Huang Zhong shakes his head and laughs. He can''t avoid this battle. On the one hand, there are no available people around him. After all, Miyamoto Musashi is so powerful that his subordinates can''t resist it. On the other hand, it is Miyamoto Musashi who challenges him by naming his family name. He can''t avoid retiring, otherwise he will be looked down upon.


    "Drive!"


    Huang Zhong took the sword with his right hand, slapped his left hand on the horse''s back, and was already slowly driving the horse out.


    The battle of Huang Zhong falls into the eyes of Tokugawa Jiakang. Tokugawa Jiakang looks at Huang Zhong coming out and laughs. Huang Zhong, who really can''t stand the fierce general, actually goes to war.


    You know, Huang Zhong is injured. If he comes out to fight, he is looking for death.


    Tokugawa said: "Miyamoto, take off Huang Zhong''s head for me. If you can capture it alive, it''s the best. If you can''t capture him alive, take off Huang Zhong''s head to pay homage to the dead spirit. "


    "I understand


    Miyamoto Musashi''s right hand works hard, and the samurai sword on his waist comes out of the sheath. With one sword in his hand, his momentum suddenly changes.


    At this moment, Miyamoto Musashi''s edge will be exposed.


    He is not good at hiding and he doesn''t like procrastination. Seeing that Huang Zhong had come out, he kicked the horse in the belly, and the horse rushed out like an arrow.


    When Huang Zhong saw this, he speeded up immediately.


    Both sides have speeded up their pace and are facing each other. In a twinkling of an eye, the distance between them is less than one Zhang.


    Huang Zhong''s sword swung around in the air and fell down. At the same time, Miyamoto Musashi''s samurai sword came out of its sheath, and the blade rose to meet it.


    "Dang!"


    The sound of violent impact, the pain of eardrum.


    Both Miyamoto Musashi and Huang Zhong had a firm foothold and did not retreat. But Huang Zhong''s left hand holding the end of the handle trembled slightly. After all, there was a wound on his left shoulder.


    Suddenly, the force will affect the left shoulder wound.


    In particular, Miyamoto Musashi is a great master, not easy to deal with, Huang Zhong and Miyamoto Musashi face-to-face confrontation, the pain is exacerbated.


    Miyamoto Musashi''s move was successful, but he was unreasonable. He swung the samurai sword again, intending to suppress Huang Zhong and win the battle.

 Chapter 1148

    With the light of the sword, Miyamoto Musashi''s sword has fallen.


    This knife is as fast as lightning.


    Miyamoto Musashi''s Sabre technique focuses on speed. He draws his Sabre day after day to improve his attack speed. In particular, Miyamoto Musashi''s physical fitness is excellent. The attack speed is even faster when the two phases are superposed. Only a vague shadow is left in the air, and the blade is in front of Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong is not impatient.


    Even if there is a wound on his left shoulder, Huang Zhong has a lot of experience.


    He knows what to do.


    Therefore, when Miyamoto Musashi''s samurai sword falls and Huang Zhong lifts it, the moment of collision is to release the force and quickly pour out the force from Miyamoto Musashi''s oppression.


    As a result, Miyamoto Musashi''s knife didn''t work.


    After Huang Zhong''s defense, he showed a sharp look on his old cheek. Huang Zhong shook his long knife and swung it. It was like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves and the lightning had already fallen.


    A knife is a powerful force.


    It''s even more weighty.


    When the blade came to Miyamoto Musashi''s body, Miyamoto Musashi did not hide and shook Huang Zhong''s knife.


    "Dang!"


    The sound is more intense when the weapon strikes.


    Huang Zhong snorted. He felt that the wound on his left shoulder was tearing. However, Huang Zhong gritted his teeth and endured it. Huang Zhong did not move, but with Huang Zhong''s effort, Miyamoto Musashi''s face changed slightly.


    He only felt that peiran''s strength impacted the palm of his hand, which made the tiger mouth of his palm feel torn. Even his whole life was shaken, almost unable to grasp the blade.


    What a powerful force!


    Miyamoto Musashi''s eyebrows rise. It seems that he knows Huang Zhong for the first time, because such Huang Zhong surprised him. If Huang Zhong can maintain this state, Miyamoto Musashi will be defeated.


    Miyamoto Musashi also knows that the last time he attacked Huang Zhong, it was after Huang Zhong''s strength was exhausted, so Miyamoto Musashi could win. In Huang Zhong''s heyday, Miyamoto Musashi could not defeat him.


    Even though Huang Zhong is old and his life is declining, it is not easy for Miyamoto Musashi to defeat him.


    "Come again!"


    Huang Zhong broke back Miyamoto Musashi with a knife and waved it again. He knew that such a way of fighting would have a great impact on his injury, but the problem is that Huang Zhong must guard the port of entering the sea now, and he must not shrink back.


    Once you retreat, the port will not hold.


    Zhang Xiu has no landing base.


    Huang Zhong raises the sword to attack, where the blade is, and constantly fights with Miyamoto Musashi.


    "Dang! Dang! Dang! "


    One after another, the sound of crashing and ringing.


    The two are fighting each other.


    At this time, Huang Zhong''s left shoulder wound had been torn, and blood had spilled over and dyed his clothes red. The whole left shoulder, even the right shoulder, was wet with blood.


    However, there was no anxiety on Huang Zhong''s face.


    When the two armies fight, only the brave win.


    Two people fight each other, only the ruthless wins.


    Huang Zhong has experienced a great battle. He is not afraid of such fighting and suffering. Especially in this battle, Huang Zhong has to win, so Huang Zhong is biting his teeth and supporting himself.


    Huang Zhong''s condition is not good, and Miyamoto Musashi''s condition is not much better. Now, the tiger mouth of his hands has been torn, and the red blood overflowed, and dyed the handle of the samurai sword red.


    His arms were trembling.


    The bones of both arms ache faintly.


    Miyamoto Musashi faced with such desperate Huang Zhong, he could not take advantage of it, on the contrary, he himself was also greatly damaged. It''s just that Miyamoto Musashi is not a person who recognizes counsels. He is also a person who is determined to bite his teeth.


    They fought fiercely.


    It''s just that under the continuous fighting, the more Miyamoto Musashi fights down, the more terrifying he is. Even though Huang Zhong''s shoulders have been dyed red, his strength has not been weakened much and his offensive is still fierce. Such a Huang Zhong doesn''t look like an old man in his 60s, so the more he fights, the more frightened he is.


    If it wasn''t for Huang Zhong''s injury, Miyamoto Musashi knew that he would have been beheaded.


    "Kill


    At this time, Huang Zhong shot again.


    With Huang Zhong''s swift and violent wielding of the sword, Miyamoto Musashi quickly resisted. When the deafening sound of impact passed, Miyamoto Musashi was surprised to find that Huang Zhong''s strength was greatly weakened, which made Miyamoto Musashi very happy.


    Here''s the chance!


    He had a chance to fight back.


    Even he also had his blood and blood churning, his arms aching and his internal organs injured, but he still had to fight.


    A brave man is not afraid of pain.


    Miyamoto Musashi immediately bites his teeth to fight back. With Miyamoto Musashi''s hand, Huang Zhongxu shakes a knife, but quickly turns the horse''s head and retreats.


    This retreat gave Miyamoto Musashi an opportunity.


    Miyamoto Musashi chases his horse with excited eyes.Here''s the chance!


    He''s going to kill Huang Zhong!


    As long as Huang Zhong is killed, this group of Qin troops in front of him will be defeated, and he will have made great contributions.


    "Drive!"


    Miyamoto Musashi''s legs are clamped in the horse''s belly to pursue quickly. In his pursuit, the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, and in a twinkling of an eye, it was less than a Zhang or so.


    This distance is a great joy for Musashi Miyamoto.


    Huang Zhong, who was retreating in front of him, also had a smile on his face. He suddenly tightened his rein with his left hand. With the rein tightening and Huang Zhong''s grip on the horse''s belly, the horse''s front hooves were raised, but it stopped abruptly.


    "Die


    Huang Zhong twisted his waist and cut back with a knife.


    This knife is as fast as lightning.


    In particular, Miyamoto Musashi is catching up, which is the same as coming up to die. The light of the knife falls down like a bolt of bamboo. Reebok can stop it. In the twinkling of an eye, he had reached the top of Miyamoto Musashi''s head.


    Miyamoto Musashi was so surprised that he quickly raised his sword.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    The next moment, Miyamoto Musashi was struck by lightning, and the sword in his hand was knocked out directly. Huang Zhong''s long knife continued to cut off, and with a pee, it fell on Miyamoto Musashi''s left shoulder.


    The blade slipped, leaving a foot long wound.


    Miyamoto Musashi''s left chest is full of blood and flesh, and his body is unstable. He falls off the horse and rolls twice before he can stabilize himself.


    At this moment, Miyamoto Musashi''s face was as pale as death, and he was seriously injured.


    After Huang Zhong seriously injured Miyamoto Musashi with one knife, he wanted to further kill Miyamoto Musashi, but he saw another general in the Japanese army, Pegasus, rushing out to take Huang Zhong.


    Seeing this, Huang Zhong stopped moving forward and turned to retreat.


    It''s not that he doesn''t want to kill Miyamoto Musashi. It''s that once he goes forward to kill the dying Miyamoto Musashi, it will delay his time. Moreover, his body has been severely damaged. If he stays to fight with others, he will surely be defeated.


    We can only retreat for a while.


    However, after seriously injuring Miyamoto Musashi, Huang Zhong also avenged himself with a happy look on his face.


    Revenge!


    Cheerfulness!


    When Huang Zhong returned to the barracks gate, a military doctor immediately came forward to bandage Huang Zhong''s wound. After Miyamoto Musashi was taken back, he also made a quick diagnosis and treatment to avoid the deterioration of the injury.


    At the moment, Tokugawa Jiakang''s face is as black as the bottom of the pot, and his face is very unhappy. He sent Miyamoto Musashi to fight in order to defeat Huang Zhong in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, Huang Zhong defeated Miyamoto Musashi with a sick body, which made Tokugawa''s calculation come to nothing.


    In particular, the defeat of Miyamoto Musashi also affected Tokugawa''s morale.


    This is the anger of Tokugawa.


    Now Huang Dekang is back with you. Your army, just like you, is a tired army. You can''t stop my army. In this battle, you will surely lose. "


    "Dream!"


    Huang Zhong''s answer is concise and comprehensive.


    He was eager to get along with Tokugawa, but he didn''t find the chance.

 Chapter 1149

    Tokugawa said solemnly: "whether you dream or not, you will know after the first World War. Last time I defeated you with a large army, you must have thought that I was a surprise attack. This time, you will see the real strength of Japan. "


    Huang Zhong''s cheek was slightly painful. After all, even if he was standing, he would pull the wound. However, he endured the pain and replied, "Tokugawa Jiakang, the theory of victory and defeat is only known after the fight. I''d like to see how strong your country is. "


    "To die!"


    Tokugawa has a cool face.


    As soon as he waved his hand, he ordered: "Songping Kangzhong!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Matsuiping Kangzhong step forward, his body is about 160 cm, but very strong, at a glance, like a small wooden pier. But Songping Kangzhong is born a pair of eight character eyebrows, sharp eyebrows, thin lips, give people a sense of cold.


    Among the many generals under the command of Tokugawa Jiakang, the martial arts of Matsui Ping Kangzhong is not the most outstanding, but the most ruthless. He is cruel not only to himself but also to the enemy.


    The army under him was extremely fierce.


    Soldiers, like hungry wolves on the battlefield, are invincible.


    Tokugawa said: "you lead 10000 troops to attack the camp on the left side of the Qin army. Kill me and break the defense of the Qin army. "


    "Yes, sir


    Songping Kangzhong should fight.


    Immediately, he went to transfer troops.


    After Matsumoto''s retirement, Tokugawa said, "BENDUO won!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Mr. Bento stepped forward.


    Bento is 178 cm tall. Under the command of Tokugawa, he is the tallest man. He is very tall and strong. He had a rough face, a rebellious brow and an extremely fierce face.


    What BENDUO Zhongsheng is good at is shooting. He raises his gun and drives his horse to fight on the battlefield. If it is a battle on the battlefield, Miyamoto Musashi may not be his opponent.


    In a single to single contest, Mototo won, but not Miyamoto Musashi.


    Tokugawa Jiakang ordered: "you lead 10000 troops to attack the camp on the right side of the Qin army. Songping Kangzhong has led the army to attack from the left side. Now, if you lead the army to attack from the right side, it depends on who will enter the Qin camp first. "


    "It must be me!"


    Bendor''s reply was blunt.


    He is extremely confident.


    He got on his horse, took the gun from the soldier''s hand, and quickly mobilized the soldiers to fight. Soon after, two men, matsuiping Kangzhong and Bento Zhongsheng, led their own soldiers, one on the left and the other on the right, to attack Huang Zhong''s camp.


    Huang Zhong was not impatient when he saw the enemy coming.


    He dispassionately dispatched the soldiers to defend.


    Huang Zhong had some experience in guarding. After all, Huang Zhong arranged Defense this time, including Tribulus terrestris, bows and arrows, and ditches to specially block the Japanese soldiers.


    With constant resistance, countless Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded.


    Rao is so, Japanese soldiers are also close.


    When the Japanese soldiers approached, Huang Zhong dispatched his troops to resist BENDUO Zhongsheng and Songping Kangzhong. But these two men are quite brave, leading the soldiers to press step by step. Even after Huang Zhong''s troops beat back the two men''s offensive, in the twinkling of an eye, they led the army to fight up again and launched another offensive.


    Huang Zhong dispatched soldiers to resist, and his eyes fell on Songping Kangzhong.


    Compared with Bento, Songping Kangzhong is weaker.


    It''s even easier to kill Matsumoto.


    But Huang Zhong''s side, but can''t take out a strong general, no one can kill Songping Kangzhong. Huang Zhong clenched his teeth and said, "come on, tie the wound to death for me. Tie the wound again."


    "General, the wound is tied to death, which is not conducive to wound recovery!"


    One side of the doctor smell speech, immediately open mouth.


    Huang Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "now, where can we manage the wound recovery. At present, what we should do is to hold the port and win the war. Otherwise, the rest is in vain. "


    "Here, tie Ben up."


    Huang Zhong gave another order.


    The doctor had no choice but to take off Huang Zhong''s armour, quickly bind Huang Zhong with gauze and put on his coat again. Huang Zhong moved his arm for a while. After the wound was completely tied to death, the movement of his arm did not affect the wound for the time being.


    Of course, if you use too much force, it will definitely affect the wound.


    But these are all helpless things.


    Huang Zhong bit his teeth, turned over and mounted the horse, and took up his weapon. He first told the staff around him to direct the war. Then he rushed straight to Songping Kangzhong with a knife in his hand.


    Today, Songping Kangzhong is still at the gate of the camp and is still trying to enter the camp. However, Huang Zhong''s soldiers were still on guard. Even though Matsui Ping Kangzhong killed in the camp, he was beaten back in the twinkling of an eye.


    Huang Zhong drives his horse to kill him. He is getting closer and closer to Songping Kangzhong.The distance between them is less than ten steps.


    At this time, Songping Kangzhong also found Huang Zhong. If it''s Huang Zhong who has never been injured, Songping Kangzhong dare not fight. But Huang Zhong was injured by Musashi Miyamoto early in the morning. Previously, even if Huang Zhong defeated Miyamoto Musashi, in fact, Huang Zhong was seriously injured and suffered great physical damage.


    Under this premise, Songping Kangzhong dares to fight.


    He even made contributions to the killing of Huang Zhong.


    This is his chance.


    As soon as Songping Kangzhong lifted his sword, he drove his horse to Huang Zhong. With a look of excitement in his eyes, he exclaimed, "Huang Zhong, today next year is your memorial day. Take your life!"


    The blade swung up. As soon as Songping Kangzhong got close to Huang Zhong, he swung the knife and cut it down.


    Huang Zhong did not hide, but raised his knife to fight.


    "Dang!"


    The two weapons collided with each other, making a tremendous noise.


    Huang Zhong''s eyebrows wrinkled for a moment, because the impact just now inevitably involved his wound. However, Huang Zhong was not affected by the pain and continued to move forward.


    Songping Kangzhong is different. His strength is much worse than Huang Zhong''s. Now Huang Zhong goes all out. Songping Kangzhong''s arm is in great pain. He even feels that his bones are torn. His hand is torn and his weapon is knocked out.


    In the face of Huang Zhong continue to fall a knife, Songping Kangzhong quickly side to avoid.


    Just as he avoided it, his eyes suddenly widened.


    Because the direction of his side body is exactly the direction of Huang Zhong''s change.


    Huang Zhong''s falling knife suddenly changes its move and cuts horizontally. It just happens to meet the oncoming Songping Kangzhong.


    "Yes


    The edge of the knife cuts Matsui''s neck.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, splashing out.


    Songping Kangzhong didn''t say a word. He just opened his mouth and fell down from his horse. After Songping Kangzhong was killed, Huang Zhong withdrew, handed over the battlefield to his ministry, and returned to the camp again.


    This scene fell into the eyes of Tokugawa Jiakang.


    "Waste!"


    Tokugawa cheered.


    He did not expect that his Songping Kangzhong was killed by Huang Zhong face to face. Originally, Tokugawa was ready to win the war, but now that matsuiping Kangzhong was killed, his attack against Huang Zhong disappeared completely.


    For the time being, Tokugawa Jiakang didn''t increase his troops, because we can''t see the outcome at the moment. It depends on the situation of moto''s victory. Once benduozhong wins, the battle will still be enough to turn the situation around.


    Huang Zhong stood in the camp, looking at the movement of the Japanese army outside the camp. He was relieved to see that Tokugawa had not increased his troops. His eyes turned and fell on BENDUO Zhongsheng.


    As the saying goes, if you want to capture the king first, you have to kill BENDUO Zhongsheng first.


    Only in this way can there be a turning point.


    It''s just that Bento''s strength is very strong. Huang Zhong is injured now, even though he is not afraid of Bento. But the problem is that Huang Zhong''s attempt to wipe out BENDUO Zhongsheng in a short time is extremely difficult.


    This is what Huang Zhong is afraid of.


    What should we do?


    Huang Zhong''s face is dignified, thinking about the way to get rid of BENDUO Zhongsheng.

 Chapter 1150

    "General, I have a plan to kill another Japanese general who attacked us."


    Just then, a general behind Huang Zhong spoke.


    His name is Xiao moping. He was born in a poor family. In his early years, he had been flying in the bear army. Today, he is a strong general in the flying bear army. His strength and ability are quite good.


    Huang Zhong said, "Xiao, what can you do?"


    Xiao moping replied: "general, if you want to kill Japanese generals, ordinary people can''t do it. Only general, you can do it. But now the general, obviously, can''t appear in person. If the general wants to kill him, there is another way, that is to shoot him with bow and arrow. "


    "It''s just that it''s not easy to shoot him."


    "So, a decoy is needed."


    "Lure the Japanese generals to the direction of the camp, so that the general can aim at him and shoot the Japanese generals. In the army, general, your archery is famous for its superb skill, which can pierce the Yang with every step. As long as it''s close to the camp, it''s easy for you to kill him. "


    Xiao moping made suggestions.


    Huang Zhong frowned: "your plan is good, but it involves a bait. You need one person to fight with the Japanese generals. But I look all over the army, and there is no one who can compete with each other. "


    "The end will be willing to go!"


    Xiao moping clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, "the end general is willing to lure the Japanese generals to get close to the camp and expose them to the general''s sight. Please allow him."


    Brush!


    Huang Zhong''s face changed slightly.


    It never occurred to him that Xiao moping wanted to risk himself and go to lure the enemy himself.


    It''s like trusting life and death.


    If you don''t pay attention, Xiao moping will die on the battlefield. In particular, although Xiao moping is a valiant general of the flying bear army, in fact, Xiao moping is the most powerful person, mainly judging the situation and being able to arrange troops. But now, when it comes to the outcome of the war, Xiao moping is willing to give his life in exchange for Ben duozhong''s life.


    Seeing Huang Zhong''s hesitation, Xiao moping said, "general, up to now, our flying bear army has rarely been defeated. But now, it is defeated in the hands of Tokugawa Jiakang, and the losses are huge. "


    "This is a disgrace to the flying bear army."


    "The shame of the bear army should be washed away by the bear army."


    "Therefore, we must fight to the death."


    Xiao moping clenched his teeth and solemnly said, "if the last general is lucky enough to survive, then the general will give him a jar of excellent aged wine. The last general knows that you have a lot of good wine. If the general is dead, please take his bones back to his hometown and pour a bowl of wine on his head. That''s enough! "


    Huang Zhong clenched his fist. He was extremely excited and felt more remorse.


    He is responsible for the defeat of the war.


    So much so that Xiao moping needs to stand up and trade his life for his life.


    "General, the last general is willing to fight."


    At this time, another person came forward to speak. His name is Yan Qing. He is also a veteran of the flying bear army. Now he is nearly 40 years old. When Yan Qing was in the flying bear army, he was a young man. Now he is a middle-aged man. He is gradually getting old.


    Yan Qing said: "general, Lao Xiao will fight alone. He may not succeed if he takes the lead. If Lao Xiao doesn''t succeed, then Mo will be willing to use it as bait to lure Japanese generals. "


    "General, the end will be willing to use as bait."


    "General, the last general is willing to go."


    "Please don''t worry, general. I''m sure I can finish the task."


    One by one, the generals of the flying bear army asked to fight one after another. Even though it was a more sinister and less auspicious situation that BENDUO was lured to win, all of them stood up and spoke one after another.


    Everyone is ready for World War I.


    All of us are dead.


    They regard the honor of the flying bear army as more important than their own lives, because the flying bear army is not only the army they serve, but also the collective for which they give everything, which is their spiritual sustenance.


    Therefore, the generals of the flying bear army are willing to die.


    Hearing this, Huang Zhong''s eyes were full of tears.


    He did not expect that at this time of crisis, the generals under his command were willing to sacrifice their lives for their country. Huang Zhong was deeply moved by such a group of people.


    The more moved Huang Zhong was, the more guilty he felt. Even if he won the battle, I''m afraid there would not be many soldiers left. However, the flying bear army had no choice, and Huang Zhong had no choice.


    Huang Zhong clenched his fist and solemnly said, "OK, just do as Xiao moping said. After Xiao moping, there was Yan Qing, who queued up according to their respective speaking order. In this war, the Japanese generals will be killed. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Xiao moping turned over and got on the horse, carrying his own sword, he was already carrying his sword to fight. Although Xiao moping couldn''t find Bento Zhongsheng for a while, it didn''t take him long to see Bento Zhongsheng.Today, Bento is killing quickly.


    A long shot, left to right.


    The tip of the gun flickered and pierced the soldiers'' bodies, forcing them to retreat.


    Xiao moping saw BENDUO Zhongsheng''s strength. Without delay, he killed him with a knife. When he came to BENDUO Zhongsheng''s side, he would cut off with a knife.


    The light of the knife falls down. It''s fast and amazing.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    When BENDUO Zhongsheng saw Xiao moping''s strength, he raised a look of disdain. As soon as he swept his gun, it was hard for Xiao moping to resist, so Xiao moping took advantage of the situation to retreat.


    Xiao moping retreated in the hope of luring BENDUO Zhongsheng to pursue.


    It''s a pity that BENDUO Zhongsheng didn''t pursue him. He still fought steadily. With his army, he slaughtered the Qin soldiers who were standing in front of him to wipe out the main force of the Qin army.


    Benduozhongsheng, regardless of Xiao moping, exclaimed: "the general of Daqin was sniped by benduozhongsheng and defeated. We are going to win this battle. Sons, follow me to the barracks of Daqin. "


    He led the troops to fight and was very aggressive.


    At this time, Xiao moping, seeing that BENDUO Zhongsheng did not pursue, could only kill him again, and then led his troops to attack BENDUO Zhongsheng.


    Seeing the other side coming again, benduozhongsheng''s murderous spirit grows.


    It''s a crap stick.


    He was defeated by BENDUO Zhongsheng and retreated. Now, this man is here again. BENDUO Zhongsheng''s heart is full of anger. He kills Xiao moping with his gun and wants to kill him.


    In the face of benduozhongsheng, Xiao moping could not retreat directly even if he knew he was defeated. If he wants to lure him to pursue, at least he has to fight first and then withdraw.


    So, Xiao moping is fighting with weapons.


    When they met, Xiao moping was not defeated at all, and he fell down again. This time, Xiao moping did not withdraw directly, but resisted BENDUO Zhongsheng''s attack.


    "Waste, people like you are just going to die."


    "Die


    "Kill


    BENDUO Zhongsheng drank and stabbed out his gun one after another. Its offensive is extremely powerful. Its murderous spirit, tosses endlessly. BENDUO''s attack is becoming more and more powerful, while Xiao moping is losing, not BENDUO''s opponent.


    In this retreat of Xiao moping, BENDUO Zhongsheng began to pursue.


    Big gun up, straight at Xiao moping.


    In the face of BENDUO Zhongsheng, if Xiao moping retreats too fast, he can''t create opportunities for Huang Zhong. So he retreated so slowly that he gave him a chance to win.


    Big guns close, one up.


    Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun pierced Xiao moping''s shoulder. BENDUO Zhongsheng''s mouth rose, and he raised a cruel smile. He put his strength into his hand and stirred it between his guns. After smashing moto''s muscles, he pulled out his gun.


    The blood splashed and dyed Xiao moping''s clothes red, which made Xiao moping almost shudder. The heartrending pain made Xiao moping extremely painful.


    But Xiao moping didn''t care about it.


    He retreated again in no hurry, luring moto to pursue.


    Under such circumstances, Xiao moping himself is already in crisis. Because Xiao moping was not as good as BENDUO Zhongsheng, now he deliberately delayed and lured BENDUO Zhongsheng close to the camp, which gave BENDUO Zhongsheng the chance to kill Xiao moping.


    "General, it''s up to you."


    Xiao moping is aware that he has been overtaken and knows that he can''t retreat. But by this time, he had successfully lured him to a position about 60 steps away from the camp, which was quite open and easy to aim at.


    This is Huang Zhong''s chance.

 Chapter 1151

    Although Huang Zhong''s shoulder was injured, and because of the successive battles, the wound cracked and the blood kept flowing out, he had already soaked his clothes. However, Huang Zhong can still shoot arrows, even if the injury affects him, but Huang Zhong can still hold on.


    Now Huang Zhong is standing in the military camp, holding a bow in his left hand and twisting a bow and arrow in his right hand, ready at any time. His eyes are all on Xiao moping, waiting for him to create opportunities.


    Seeing Xiao moping injured and endangered, Huang Zhong was even more anxious.


    When Xiao moping got closer and guided BENDUO Zhongsheng about 60 steps away, Huang Zhong was ready to fight.


    The distance is right.


    Next, let''s see when BENDUO Zhongsheng shows his flaws.


    All of a sudden, Huang Zhong''s pupil shrinks, and he sees the chance of BENDUO''s victory. Because today''s BENDUO Zhongsheng is just facing the camp and slashing Xiao moping.


    Xiao moping is hard to resist and is in trouble.


    Huang Zhong is helpless, unable to help Xiao moping, and he has to shoot BENDUO Zhongsheng.


    "Xiao, you must survive."


    Huang Zhong secretly encouraged Xiao moping.


    At the same time, Huang Zhong has bent his bow and set his arrow on the bowstring. It''s just a flash of aiming. Huang Zhong has already aimed at BENDUO Zhongsheng.


    "Yes


    Huang Zhong drinks low.


    "Hum!"


    The bow string vibrates, and the bow and arrow gallop like a meteor. In an instant, they have come out of the string and go straight to BENDUO. The arrow pierced the air with a sharp whistling sound, leaving only a shadow in the air. It was as fast as lightning, almost hard to see the trace.


    At the moment, Bento Zhongsheng only wants to kill Xiao moping.


    Damn this guy.


    It was a constant escape.


    In the hands of benduozhongsheng, he could never leave a living, and could not let people escape. So benduozhongsheng wanted to kill Xiao moping. When BENDUO Zhongsheng wanted to kill Xiao Mo, a trace of palpitation suddenly came out of his heart.


    Even he instinctively felt that there was something dangerous.


    BENDUO Zhongsheng looked up and immediately opened his eyes. Deep in his eyes, there was a deep sense of horror.


    "Puchi!"


    A dull sound came out.


    Sharp bow and arrow, impartial, in the middle of this more Zhongsheng eyebrow. The arrow has pierced the skull, into your head. The red blood immediately overflowed and fell from BENDUO''s cheek.


    From the beginning to the end, he didn''t even say a word, but there was horror and fear in his eyes. The next moment, his body had fallen from his horse and fell to the ground with a plop.


    BENDUO Zhongsheng''s massive body twitches twice, and the corner of his mouth overflows with blood, and then there is no breath.


    Huang Zhong shot BENDUO Zhongsheng.


    One shot at the head!


    "Hoo! Hoo


    At this moment, Xiao moping was gasping, with a happy look on his face.


    He survived.


    He survived.


    It''s only a little bit short that he will die in the hands of BENDUO Zhongsheng. Thanks to Huang Zhong''s arrow, he rescued him in time. Had it not been for this, Xiao moping would have been a corpse, just like BENDUO.


    Xiao moping took advantage of the situation and called out to kill the enemy and fight back. His soldiers kept on fighting to defeat the Japanese soldiers. After all, the killing of BENDUO Zhongsheng affected the morale of the Japanese army.


    As a result, the Japanese forces on the left and right flanks of the camp were weakened.


    They were all resisted.


    It is difficult for the Japanese army to move forward.


    This scene, fell in the eyes of Tokugawa Jiakang, Tokugawa Jiakang suddenly furious. Even though Tokugawa Jiakang, the leader of a country, claimed to be the emperor of Japan, and even he once ruled Japan, it was still difficult to suppress his anger when he saw the scene in front of him.


    He had never been in such a situation.


    The two generals under his command were killed one after another.


    Damn it!


    Damn it!


    Full of anger, Tokugawa Jiakang ordered: "the bird lives in Yuanzhong, the tall wood is beautiful!"


    "Yes


    Niaoju Yuanzhong and Takagi Qingxiu stand up and answer at the same time.


    Both of them are valiant generals, especially when they saw BENDUO Zhongsheng and Matsui Kangzhong killed, they were filled with anger. They are not only comrades, but also comrades in arms. Now that their comrades in arms are killed, niaojuyuanzhong and gaomuqingxiu can''t help but kill the enemy for revenge.


    Tokugawa Jiakang ordered: "you two again led 20000 troops to attack the Qin camp."


    "Yes


    Bird house Yuanzhong and Gao muqingxiu should go down at the same time.


    Immediately, the two mobilized soldiers to fight. This time, after the deployment of 20000 troops by the two men, together with the number of troops attacking the front line, it has reached nearly 40000. Although some of the Japanese troops lost their lives in the previous attack, the main forces were still there. Now, coupled with the strength of bird house Yuanzhong and Takagi Qingxiu, Huang Zhong, who is in charge of defense, is under more pressure.Things are getting worse.


    After all, the troops under Huang Zhong''s command are insufficient, and it is difficult to compete with the army of Tokugawa Jiakang.


    The gap between the two sides is too big.


    Tokugawa Jiakang looked at the situation on the battlefield and saw that Huang Zhong was on the verge of danger. Then he showed a smile on his face. Up to now, the Qin army led by Huang Zhong has been unable to defend and will surely be defeated.


    "Get the drumsticks!"


    Tokugawa said.


    Immediately, a soldier handed the drumstick. When Tokugawa Jiakang took over, he personally beat the drum. With the sound of the war drum, Japanese soldiers found that Tokugawa Jiakang personally beat the drum, and the attack was more fierce, wave by wave.


    "Kill, kill!"


    "Capture Huang Zhong alive and kill the Qin army."


    "Go in!"


    With the shouts rising one after another, more and more Japanese soldiers became excited and kept on sprinting. This kind of offensive makes Huang Zhong''s defensive pressure doubled, and the situation of garrison is in danger.


    Xiao moping was injured, but now he has returned to the camp. He looks at the Japanese soldiers killed outside the camp with a solemn look on his face and a little more worry in his eyes.


    Xiao moping again advised: "general, you can''t stay any longer. Stay in the camp. We can''t leave any of them. Please ask the general to lead the army to retreat, and the general will be willing to stay behind. Now leave the camp early, go to the dock and board the boat, and you can still leave. If it''s later, it''s impossible to leave. "


    The rest of the generals also tried to persuade them, and they even asked for war and were willing to break the war.


    Everyone knows that after severance, it means death.


    However, no one recognized it.


    Each of them would rather die than retreat. They all asked for a fight one after another and were willing to seek a chance of life for Huang Zhong.


    Huang Zhong clenched his teeth and said in a deep voice, "if you want to retreat, you should also retreat together. Now, Ben is going to retreat alone. That''s nothing. This will never leave the army behind to withdraw. "


    In today''s situation, Huang Zhong knows that the situation is unfavorable.


    I can''t keep it.


    It can only be a retreat.


    Otherwise, Huang Zhong and all the soldiers in the army will die here.


    Huang Zhong didn''t wait for the crowd to speak, so he gave a decisive order and said, "send the order down, and the army will retreat. Let''s go back to the dock at full speed and get ready to board and leave. "


    "Pull out, pull out all the troops!"


    When the herald got the order, he immediately informed him.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs, one after another.


    After the order to withdraw was passed on, all the soldiers in the army, together with Huang Zhong, quickly withdrew and no longer fell in love with war. With Huang Zhong leading the troops to leave, Tokugawa Jiakang smiles.


    He won the battle.


    But Tokugawa Jiakang was not satisfied, shouting: "chase, chase up for me. Capture Huang Zhong alive and take the Qin army. "


    "Kill


    Tokugawa calls for orders.


    Now that he has won the battle, he will fight back and destroy Huang Zhong. He will never let Huang Zhong go back to Lelang County in the north.

 Chapter 1152

    Huang Zhong retreated with his army, even though there were countless pursuers behind him. Even because Huang Zhong didn''t leave alone, the speed of his retreat was slow. However, Huang Zhong has no regrets. Because in Huang Zhong''s heart, he can''t give up this group of old brothers.


    The flying bear army was pulled out by Huang Zhong.


    It''s his family.


    The soldiers here are all carefully selected by him.


    Everyone is a clang son.


    If Huang Zhong abandons his soldiers and flees alone, he will look down on himself. Even if he is dead, it is impossible for him to leave the soldiers alone.


    "Retreat, full retreat."


    Huang Zhong gave an urgent order.


    With the order issued, Huang Zhong''s soldiers are also accelerating their evacuation. Even if the soldiers in the rear of the army were killed, a large number of soldiers were still going to the location of the dock.


    From Huang Zhong''s barracks to the wharf at the entrance to the sea. If you are on your way normally, it will take less than half an hour. This time rush, but faster.


    When approaching the dock, Huang Zhong immediately called his soldiers and prepared to land and evacuate the warship.


    "General, the big deal is not good."


    At this moment, some soldiers rushed to Huang Zhong''s side and exclaimed, "general, all the warships we docked on the shore have gone out of water. Today, all warships are difficult to navigate at sea. "


    Brush!


    Huang Zhong''s face changed greatly.


    All the warships have gone into the water, which means that all the warships have been damaged before.


    Obviously, during the war, Tokugawa Jiakang had already predicted that Huang Zhong might withdraw from the sea. Therefore, he arranged people to take the back road early, so that all Huang Zhong''s warships were destroyed.


    Huang Zhong looked at the warships alongside the wharf and sighed in his heart. He turned his eyes and finally fell on the people who had already been killed.


    At the moment, the Japanese soldiers under the command of Tokugawa Jiakang surrounded Huang Zhong and his party on three sides.


    Only the vast sea behind.


    When Tokugawa Jiakang drives his horse forward, his eyes fall on Huang Zhong, with a look of praise in his eyes. Although Huang Zhong is old, in fact, his strength is extraordinary.


    Therefore, Tokugawa hopes to be able to recruit Huang Zhong for his own use.


    Tokugawa said in a deep voice: "Huang Zhong, you have no way to go now. Unless you choose to jump from behind. Otherwise, it will be a dead end. I had expected that you would withdraw from the sea if you couldn''t keep watch, so I arranged people early to destroy the warships and make them out of the water and unable to navigate on the sea. "


    "Without a warship, you have no way back."


    "Today, you have less than 2000 troops."


    "Fighting to death can only increase casualties."


    "If you surrender now, I don''t care about the gratitude and hatred you once killed my general, or even give you a high official position to continue to command the army. Not only that, I''m not in charge of all the officers and men under your command


    "Huang Zhong, you have no way to escape," he said. Now, are you willing to lay down your arms and submit to me? "


    Abe Boya stood beside Tokugawa and frowned at his words. The previous plan was not to recruit Huang Zhong and Qin soldiers, but to capture each other and restrain Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Now, Tokugawa has changed his plan.


    However, Abe did not open his mouth to persuade him, but stood aside quietly.


    However, Huang Zhong sneered and said, "Tokugawa Jiakang, you are a Japanese, a barbarian, a man of small age, and a frog in the well. You want to recruit your general. You are so sentimental. You don''t pee, you look after yourself, you look at your virtue. It''s impossible for a man like you to surrender me, even if you give me a thousand troops. "


    "You say, don''t you?"


    Huang Zhong turned to look at the soldiers under his command and asked in a loud voice.


    "Die or surrender!"


    The general spoke.


    "Die or surrender!"


    "Die or surrender!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers began to shout in response to Huang Zhong. As like as two peas in Huang Zhong, the flying bear Army soldiers of Daqin, they are the warriors of the great Qin Dynasty, and are brave and brave as the flying bear army.


    It''s about being stabbed in the back.


    It''s impossible.


    Tokugawa Jiakang heard Huang Zhong''s words and saw the look of Huang Zhong''s soldiers. His eyes were cold and fierce, and even more gloomy and cold. As the people of Japan, they should be inferior to others in the face of China.


    Therefore, Tokugawa Jiakang wanted to enhance his national strength, even annexing Daqin and taking over China.


    In particular, when Tokugawa unified Japan, he also wanted to expand at that time, but in the Ming Dynasty, even if the river was declining, Japan could not compete, so Tokugawa did not expand.


    Now, Tokugawa wants to have a try.


    He wants to enter the Central Plains.Unfortunately, Huang Zhong''s first step to the Central Plains, which was to surrender him, was a failure.


    "If you want to die, I''ll help you."


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s face was cold and solemn. He raised his hand, then decisively ordered: "kill!"


    Under the command, the soldiers under Tokugawa Jiakang launched an attack.


    One by one, Japanese soldiers rushed forward and began to attack Huang Zhong''s soldiers. Seeing this, Huang Zhong did not retreat again because there was no way out in the rear. To retreat again is to retreat into the sea.


    "Sons, it''s time to serve your majesty and Daqin. I''ll kill you


    Huang Zhong exclaimed.


    "To the death of the enemy!"


    Huang Zhong rushed forward with his knife in his mouth.


    "To the death of the enemy!"


    "To the death of the enemy!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers of the flying bear army yelled, their voices echoed in the air, showing generosity, enthusiasm, and the will to die. All the soldiers of the flying bear army, led by Huang Zhong, have completely given up the chance of survival and fight to the death.


    I''d rather die than kill a few people to earn enough money.


    Better die than fight to the end.


    Better die than surrender.


    The fighting between the two sides proceeded quickly. In the face of the Japanese army, which was dozens of times larger than them, the flying bear army led by Huang Zhong was not afraid and kept fighting against them. With the passage of time, the number of dead and wounded soldiers of Feixiong army is increasing, and the number of soldiers around Huang Zhong is gradually decreasing.


    A corpse was left on the ground near the coast, and the scarlet blood gathered into a river and flowed to the sea, which made the ground on the sea dark red.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Huang Zhong breathed heavily. Even when he breathed, he felt that his chest was like a bellows, which was extremely difficult.


    Around, there are fewer and fewer soldiers.


    It''s less than 600.


    At this time, Tokugawa Jiakang once again called out to recruit, but Huang Zhong responded with practical actions, continued to kill and kill Japanese soldiers. From the beginning to the end, Huang Zhong did not intend to surrender. He would rather die than surrender, because he was not only a general of the Qin Dynasty, but also a people of the Qin Dynasty.


    "General, I can''t stop it. I''m afraid I can''t hold on. At the end of the day, we will take the first step. "


    Xiao moping was injured originally. After the fight, his body couldn''t support him any more. He didn''t want to be a prisoner, so he was ready to commit suicide.


    He would rather fight than be captured.


    The rest of us all have the will to die. They all want to fight for death.


    Huang Zhong''s eyes were sharp and said, "what''s the meaning of going first? Do you want to commit suicide? It was a cowardly act. Even if a man is dead, he is a dead man. Fight to the end. "


    "Yes


    Xiao moping was shocked when he heard it.


    Just now, he really wanted to commit suicide. When he heard Huang Zhong''s words, he gave up his mind to commit suicide. Even if he is full of injuries, he will fight to the end. If he can kill one, he will kill another.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    All of a sudden, the sound of the war drum came from the warship.


    As soon as Huang Zhong heard this, he suddenly turned his head back. When he saw the warships coming from the sea and the big flag on the sea, he immediately became excited and exclaimed, "my sons, your Majesty''s army is coming."


    "Our reinforcements, here they are!"


    Huang Zhong almost used his strength to shout.


    Its voice is extremely loud.


    His emotion, excited and exuberant.


    Master Wang, here we are!

 Chapter 1153

    At this moment, Huang Zhong would like to roar up to the sky. He fought in the war of Japan, and he was subdued. At first, he was ambushed by Tokugawa Jiakang, but later he had to stay in the garrison because he wanted to buy time for Zhang Xiu and wait for the arrival of the army.


    Once he leaves, it will be much more difficult for the warship to land at the port of entry. So even if the troops are small, Huang Zhong will have to fight to the death. So far, there are only a few hundred people left, which is extremely miserable.


    Now, at last, reinforcements are here.


    Here we are.


    When Huang Zhong cried out, the only hundreds of soldiers under his command also cried out. More and more cries of "reinforcements are here" reverberate on the docks. More and more soldiers are excited and excited. They stick to now, and finally keep the clouds open to see the moon.


    The rumbling drums are still ringing.


    Tokugawa Jiakang also heard the voice, but now Tokugawa Jiakang''s face is very gloomy.


    A pair of eyes, gloomy quickly dripping water.


    Only a quarter of an hour at most, he could destroy Huang Zhong. Even if Huang Zhong died, he could kill Huang Zhong and capture some Qin soldiers. But now the reinforcements of the Qin army arrived, and all the plans of Tokugawa Jiakang were completely destroyed.


    Abe said: "Your Majesty, the Qin army is here. Withdraw, for a moment, to avoid its edge. "


    Miyamoto Musashi said, "no, why retreat? We can continue to fight. "


    Although Musashi Miyamoto was injured, he was always in the army after his body was bandaged. Now, seeing Abe''s proposal to withdraw, he resolutely denied it.


    But Tokugawa did not make a statement.


    Abe Boya objected: "we can fight against the Qin army, but now we don''t even know how many people the Qin army has come and how powerful the other side is. Under such a premise, it is not suitable for the first World War. "


    After a pause, Abe Boya continued: "to retreat now is not to be afraid of the Qin army, but to better understand the situation of the other side. In the art of war of the Chinese people, it was said that if you know yourself and know your enemy, you can win a hundred battles. If we want to win, we must find out the situation of the other side, so that we can win


    After hearing this, Tokugawa Jiakang stopped insisting and ordered: "withdraw the troops!"


    Abe''s words moved Tokugawa.


    The herald gets the order, immediately.


    The voice of calling the golden end resounds through the battlefield, while the army led by Tokugawa Jiakang is rapidly retreating away from the battlefield.


    At this moment, Huang Zhong and his party were relieved.


    "Plop! Plop


    There was a constant sound.


    One by one, the soldiers fell to the ground.


    These soldiers can''t hold on any longer. After all, the soldiers in the army are exhausted and unable to lift their strength. When the enemy withdraws, they will collapse one by one.


    "Hoo..."


    Huang Zhong is also a long sigh of relief, long knife leaning on the ground, gasping.


    In addition to the original injuries, Huang Zhong had many small wounds. Because of the overflow of blood, his whole body was weak and weak. If it had not been for him to stick to his will, he would not have been able to support himself before.


    Now, finally, it''s time to relax.


    At this time, people began to talk. Although they were in bad condition and even hoarse voice, at this moment, they were in excellent condition, and their faces were filled with joy for the rest of their lives.


    It''s not a long time. One warship stops.


    On the flagship where Zhang Xiu is located, Zhang Xiu, with Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Lu Bu, shamoko and others, has been off the warship. Zhang Xiu looks at the corpses all over the ground and the blood on the ground. Her face is as heavy as water, and her face is full of anger.


    It''s tragic.


    The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were seriously injured.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu see a soldier exhausted fell to the ground, gasping, is heartache. These soldiers are the most brave and lovely people. Without the insistence of Huang Zhong and these soldiers, the battle would not have lasted until now. The port and wharf at Haikou had already been occupied by Tokugawa Jiakang.


    It''s not easy for Zhang Xiu to land.


    Huang Zhong drags his tired steps, almost pausing step by step, to Zhang Xiu''s side, reporting: "sinner Huang Zhong, meet your majesty. I''d like to ask your majesty to surrender his crime. "


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "the situation of the Japanese state is also a sudden incident. Han Sheng doesn''t have to be like this. I have witnessed the battle with my own eyes on board the warship. You are heroes. All the sons of the flying bear army are heroes. They are worthy of being our great Qin sons. "


    One by one, the soldiers of the flying bear army were very excited when they heard this.


    Many people, but also choked tears.


    It''s worth it!


    They hold fast to now, got Zhang Xiu''s words, thought it was worth it!


    As all the fierce tigers under Ganning landed and landed, the army stationed near here. All the survivors of the flying bear army were recuperated and treated. The bones of all the soldiers who died in the war were collected. In addition, all the people who died in the war were registered.After all the work, it was almost dark.


    But Zhang Xiu went to Huang Zhong''s camp in person. Now Huang Zhong is lying on his bed, with a solemn face and a touch of pain on his face. Previously, I didn''t feel how painful the wound was. But now, wave after wave of pain comes, making Huang Zhong feel uncomfortable all over.


    Huang Zhong looked at Zhang Xiu with a mournful look. He said again: "Your Majesty, I have caused such a huge loss to the bear army. I beg your majesty to punish me for my guilt. "


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said: "I have already said that the incident of Tokugawa Jiakang happened suddenly, and it has nothing to do with you. What''s more, in terms of the number of troops and the combat effectiveness of the army, the other side is not inferior to you. It makes sense that you are defeated. "


    Huang Zhong suddenly choked.


    The more Zhang Xiuyue did not pursue his responsibility, on the contrary, the more he felt guilty.


    In the end, the tears were pouring down from Huang Zhong''s eyes. Huang Zhong has always been extremely strong. He is nearly 60 years old and has a tough temperament. But now, it''s tears, not for others, just for the dead bear soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu comforted Huang Zhong and said, "Han Sheng, I will never forget the enemy of the flying bear army. I will avenge the enemies of the flying bear army. Now, you have to take good care of yourself. After a few days of cultivation, when you gather up the bones of the flying bear army''s son, I will personally choose the graveyard and bury all the flying bear army''s son at the port of Haikou, and go to mourn in person. "


    "Thank you


    Huang Zhong was very grateful.


    It''s very normal for the bear army to die in battle. However, Zhang Xiu''s personal visit to express her condolence is tantamount to giving a final conclusion to the flying bear army''s son Lang, which shows that even if the flying bear army''s son Lang died in the war, he was a hero.


    This is what Huang Zhong is most excited about.


    Zhang Xiu comforts Huang Zhong and instructs him to take a good rest. Finally, she gets up and leaves the barracks and goes back to the Chinese Army''s barracks. She convenes people to discuss the next trend.

 Chapter 1154

    Zhang Xiu called all the people together to discuss the issue of sending troops. In fact, in the end, she didn''t come up with any clear plan. The final direction was to dispatch sentries to find out the direction of Tokugawa''s retreat and the topography of this area.


    This is to understand the situation.


    If you don''t even know the situation of the other side, then this battle is an uncertain one.


    So now Zhang Xiu is temporarily stationed.


    Just wait for the sentry to get back.


    When Zhang Xiu made a plan and started the operation, the army led by Tokugawa Jiakang on the other side had already retreated to Tottori county. The army went straight back to the county seat of Tottori county and settled down in the city.


    Tottori county is a small county.


    Its wall is no more than two feet high, and the wall is not paved with green stones, but rammed with earth. After years of wind and rain, the city wall is mottled and full of potholes. It is not a strong city.


    The army led by Tokugawa Jiakang entered the city.


    Compared with the garrison of Wei and Qin, the garrison of Tokugawa Jiakang was supported by the Japanese people. The reason is very simple. Tokugawa is also a Japanese, and Tokugawa asked Abe Boya to announce that he was a God who came down to save thousands of Japanese people from being enslaved by the Qin Dynasty.


    In this way, Tokugawa has won the support of the people.


    With the support of the Japanese people, Tokugawa has a foundation. In addition, the Japanese nation was not civilized and was still in a relatively primitive stage, so when Tokugawa Jiakang appeared under the guise of reincarnation, countless people supported Tokugawa Jiakang.


    This provided great convenience for Tokugawa Jiakang to recruit troops.


    It''s a lot more convenient for Tokugawa.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Tokugawa Jiakang and his civil and military generals gathered one after another. This is after the battle between Tokugawa Jiakang and Huang Zhong, he returned to Tottori County, which will be very difficult.

 Chapter 1155

    Zhang Xiu continued: "so before the war with Tokugawa Jiakang, we must first solve these prisoners. Only after all the prisoners have been rescued can we go to war without fear. What we need to discuss now is how to rescue the prisoners. All of you, let''s talk about the solution to this matter. "


    All the people used their brains for a moment, but it was not easy to finish.


    Tokugawa Jiakang is located in the county seat of Tottori county. The army is stationed in the city, and its prisoners are also in it. Under such a premise, it is extremely difficult to rescue all the prisoners.


    Guo Jia suddenly said, "Your Majesty, how many people are there who have been imprisoned by Tokugawa Jiakang?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "we are about 3000 prisoners of the flying bear army. In addition, there were more than 1000 prisoners of Cao army. These two teams are all detained in the city. "


    Guo Jia said: "is the news definite?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "this news was published earlier by Tokugawa Jiakang in order to publicize his achievements. So this news should be true. "


    Guo Jia turned her eyes and said, "in fact, being a prisoner alone is a powerful force."


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if the number is not weak, I''m afraid these prisoners will not be too strong. Because they are in the military camp of Tokugawa Jiakang, it is impossible for them to have enough to eat, and their strength will certainly be weakened. Moreover, there are no weapons on them. So it''s not easy for them to start from the inside. "


    In Guo Jia''s eyes, there was a light, and he said: "so next, to rescue this group of prisoners, to break Niaodao County, we must work in two ways. At the same time, we should attack Niaodao county. "


    Pang Tong said, "Mr. Guo, it''s not easy."


    Guo Jia said: "war is not easy. But anyway, we have to try. This is how I think about the detailed plan for the next war. On the one hand, they arranged for people to sneak into the county seat of Niaodao to rescue 3000 prisoners. On the other hand, at the same time, he made a gesture of attacking Tottori County, attracting the forces of Tokugawa Jiakang to the city tower. Only in this way can the effect be achieved at the same time. "


    Pang Tong said: "it is extremely easy to attack the county seat of Niaodao County, not difficult. But the problem is that there are still 3000 prisoners. These people must be the Japanese barracks in the city. It''s not easy to sneak in, but it''s even more difficult to rescue the prisoners. "


    "It''s true, but even so, people have to go," Guo said


    Pang Tong stopped talking.


    In fact, Pang tong can''t think of any good solution to the current situation. After all, the Feixiong army fell into the hands of Tokugawa Jiakang, which made it more inconvenient.


    Even though Pang Tong was extremely intelligent, there was no way.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what do you think of Guo Jia''s suggestion?"


    "Your Majesty, I agree!"


    Xun Yu took the lead in talking. He thought about it for a while. He also thought that in order to win the victory of Niaodao County, we must first solve the problem of prisoners. Otherwise, there will be great variables in the attack on Niaodao county.


    Suddenly, Xun you said, "Your Majesty, I have different opinions."


    It''s sudden.


    Xun you didn''t speak much before, but now he suddenly said it, which surprised Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu said, "Gongda has different opinions, but it''s OK to say it."


    Xun you said in a deep voice: "the precondition for your majesty to deal with this matter is to think that our prisoners will be used by Tokugawa Jiakang, which will hinder us. But why don''t you just bypass it? "


    After a pause, Xun you said, "if Tokugawa Jiakang doesn''t use the constraints of the captives, it won''t affect him. If Tokugawa takes advantage of the prisoners, his majesty will ignore them. Your majesty only needs to lead the army to attack and defeat the army of Tokugawa Jiakang in one go, so you will win


    Zhang Xiu said immediately, "how can I be a soldier of the Qin Dynasty regardless of life and death?"


    In a word, it directly set the tone.


    However, Xun you took the overall situation into consideration and said, "Your Majesty, death and injury are inevitable on the battlefield. If, despite the lives of the more than 2000 soldiers, they can go all out to attack without restriction, why not? This kind of fighting can actually reduce the losses to the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty to the minimum. "


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head firmly.


    His eyes were sharp and firm, and he said, "no matter how much I pay, I am willing to adopt Guo Jia''s plan. Because at any time, I will not give up the soldiers in the army. "


    "Even if the loss may increase, I will not turn back. I also believe that the soldiers in the army will not object. On the contrary, they will support me. "


    "Because if we don''t give up the more than 2000 captive flying bears, that is to say, we don''t give up on them."


    "I have always been like this when I use my troops."


    "Don''t abandon, don''t give up!"


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as long as I am under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, I will not abandon or give up. This sentence is for your mutual encouragement. I hope you will remember it. "When people heard the words, they were in awe.


    Xun you, in particular, was shocked.


    It was as if he knew Zhang Xiu for the first time, because Zhang Xiu in front of him didn''t feel like a superior son of heaven, but a man of flesh and blood and warmth.


    Such people are alive.


    It''s not apathy.


    It''s not just about the big business.


    Xun you took a deep breath, but he folded his hands and bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu, then said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    "Your majesty


    The rest spoke.


    After all, with Xun you''s leadership, others can only follow.


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    They all got up. At this time, Pang Tong took the words and said, "emperor, since you have chosen Mr. Guo''s plan. Then, who will be the people who want to sneak into the city to execute? "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "I will go to the people who sneak into the city to carry out the plan. Then I will take Shi a, Deng Zhan and Lu Bu with me. The rest will stay in the barracks outside the city, waiting for my orders. At that time, once I succeed, I will release the arrow, and you will attack outside the city immediately. "


    "No, your majesty


    Pang Tong heard, cold can not help but shiver, quickly persuade.


    In case of Zhang Xiu''s weakness, it''s not good. Especially in today''s Daqin, although the national prosperity is prosperous and the country is stable, this premise is based on Zhang Xiu''s physical safety.


    Once Zhang Xiu made a mistake, Daqin would be turbulent.


    Even with the crown prince.


    It''s also unstable.


    Xun Yu also said: "Your Majesty, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Your majesty is going to sneak into the county seat of Niaodao in person, and also sneak into the Japanese barracks, or even cause an accident. This step by step is becoming more and more dangerous. If you don''t pay attention, I''m afraid your life will be in danger. "


    Xun you also said, "Your Majesty, I don''t agree with you."


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, I don''t agree with you either."


    Everyone, they all agree.


    No one wants Zhang Xiu to be in danger, because without conquering Niaodao County, Zhang Xiu sneaks into the action with people, which is tantamount to putting herself at risk. This is something that wise people do not do.

 Chapter 1156

    When Zhang Xiu saw the opposition, she didn''t feel surprised.


    After all, the matter of sneaking into action in this way can be handled by the people below. There''s nothing in the world that you can''t play without. Even if Zhang Xiu does not go, there are still people below who can complete the plan and ensure that nearly 3000 prisoners can be rescued.


    It''s just that Zhang Xiu doesn''t like being in the back.


    He likes to act.


    He likes to do things.


    This is his inherent nature, especially his sense of achievement is unparalleled when he takes risks and succeeds in the end. After all, although Zhang Xiu is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, in fact, in many ways, he is unqualified.


    A king shows little emotion.


    An emperor, can''t have too many personal feelings, must be indifferent.


    An emperor can''t do everything by himself.


    ¡­¡­


    But Zhang Xiu did a lot of it.


    This is the shortcoming of Zhang Xiu.


    But just because of these shortcomings, Zhang Xiu is not alone. He is not indifferent, on the contrary, he is more affectionate. And the people under Zhang Xiu''s command are more loyal to Zhang Xiu.


    This is the pros and cons.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care about this. He took a deep breath and said, "I''ve decided what I''m going to do. You don''t have to persuade me. I''ve made up my mind. No one can persuade me. I think you understand


    Pang Tong sighed: "Your Majesty, this battle doesn''t have to be in the past."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "these years, I have been living in the deep palace for a long time, and my body and bones are almost rusty. This time I personally carried out the task, which aroused my interest. Shiyuan, you don''t have to persuade any more. You are an old man who follows me. You should know my nature. "


    Pang Tong sighed and said nothing more.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "our action will be tonight. So, get ready. Tonight, not only am I going to take people with me, but the troops in the army are also on their way all night, lurking outside the city of Niaodao County, waiting for my news. "


    "Here it is


    All of them answered.


    No matter Pang Tong or Guo Jia and others, they will not talk much and look forward to the beginning of the next war.


    Everyone went to arrange things separately.


    Wang Yue stood beside Zhang Xiu and said solemnly, "emperor, although Shi a and Deng Zhan are accompanying us in this battle. But please be careful not to be careless. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know that you stay in the army and watch the situation carefully."


    "I understand


    Wang Yue replied solemnly.


    After two people''s words, Wang Yue goes to arrange the task, while Zhang Xiu is in the camp, quietly waiting for the arrival of the night.


    Time flies and night falls.


    In November, even in Tottori County, it is getting colder and colder. However, Zhang Xiu, Deng Zhan, Shi a and Lu Bu were full of excitement.


    Their action is tonight.


    Lu Bu, in particular, is more happy with the action tonight. After he was subordinated to Zhang Xiu, although he also got the official position and title. But I have nothing to do all day, and my body and bones will rust. Now can act together with Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu is particularly cherish.


    Zhang Xiu and her party, dressed in black, quietly left.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Gan Ning and Huang Zhong also left the barracks and began to rush to Niaodao county.


    Compared with Gan Ning, who was on the road with a large army, Zhang Xiu and his party were faster. In the early morning, Zhang Xiu and his party had already been outside the county town of Niaodao County, hiding in the dark and looking at the county town of Niaodao county.


    The city of Tottori county is very dilapidated and mottled. It can''t stand the towering and solid weather at all.


    It''s an ordinary city.


    Even a lower county city in Daqin can''t match.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the county seat of Tottori County, looked at Shi a, and said, "Shi a, do you remember the distribution map of the situation in the county seat of Tottori and the road to the barracks clearly?"


    "Clear!"


    Shia nodded.


    Shi a is familiar with how to get to the Japanese army''s barracks.


    "Come on, let''s go around the corner of the tower, then climb the wall and sneak into the city."


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    He immediately took Shi''a, Deng zhanbu and Lv Bu into action and ran in the dark. After a while, he approached a corner of the city wall in the northwest of Tottori county and hid under it.


    Zhang Xiu asks Shi a to take out the triangular hook claw, grabs one end of the rope, and throws it up. With a bang, the claws landed on the wall. Zhang Xiu forced a pull, hook claw fixed on the wall.


    Zhang Xiu immediately pulled the rope to climb up.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is not a difficult thing. It''s easy for her to climb the low tower. Shi a, Deng Zhan and Lu Bu also climbed the tower one after another.


    After landing, they quickly went down the castle, sneaked into the city, and quietly went to the direction of the barracks.It''s not far from sijialu in chuanlikang county. If you run at full speed, it won''t take long.


    After the arrival of the four, Zhang Xiu also hid in the dark to observe.


    The garrison of this military camp is rather strict.


    There are soldiers on guard at the gate of the camp. In the camp, there are three steps, one post and five steps, one sentry.


    After Zhang Xiu looked at her, she turned her eyes and landed in the northwest corner of the camp. He said, "go, follow me. Now the former camp is heavily guarded, which is not conducive to sneaking in. We''ll come in from the rear camp and wait for the opportunity. "


    Everyone is closely follow, follow Zhang Xiu fast action. When we got to the northwest corner of the camp, although there were fences and even trenches outside the local military camp, which were specially used to isolate the inside and outside, for Zhang Xiu and others, such protective measures were not the same and were not affected at all.


    "Come on, let''s dive in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order and was ready to take action.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, there are footsteps.


    Zhang Xiu quickly raised her hand and motioned that all the people did not move. She was still hidden in the dark. While they were waiting, they saw that four Japanese came out of the place where they were going to go through the fence.


    Among the four Japanese, the leader is quite tall.


    The rest of them are not low in stature.


    And one by one dressed up, a look is not ordinary Japanese soldiers, all have a certain identity.


    The leader''s name was Liang Tian Da Xiong.


    He is a general in the army.


    Liangtian Big Bear looked at the other three people who followed him and said with a smile, "you guys, I can tell you. Although this county is a small one, it can''t compare with the capital of China. But here in Tottori County, I hear it''s very beautiful. "


    After a pause, Liangtian said: "there are several beautiful women in the brothels in the city. This is our chance. Let''s go quietly tonight. Tomorrow morning, I''ll come back quietly. I don''t know. "


    The other three were all flattered.


    They are all very excited. After all, they haven''t had meat for a long time. Now they want to leave the military camp to have fun and vent their anger.


    Liangtian bear was very proud to see the look of the three, holding his head high and carrying his hands. They strode out, and soon they had already bypassed Zhang Xiu and his party.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the back of four people leaving, but the light flashed in her eyes.


    Opportunity!


    He waved and gave the order to attack.


    Four decisive hand, a direct forward, in a twinkling of an eye, then killed Liangtian big bear four people behind. Only listen to the sound of bang, not even a little scream, Liangtian big bear and other four people were knocked unconscious.


    Four people fell on the ground, a soft look.


    Zhang Xiu said: "people, kill. Their clothes, we put them on immediately. Thanks to the Japanese army, because of the recruitment of new soldiers, many of them have different hair styles from Tokugawa''s. So we enter, even if the bun style is different, it will not be found


    Lu Bu said, "what your majesty said is true."


    Four people quickly shot, killed Liangtian big bear and others, and took off their clothes. A few people suddenly changed, then turned into the camp, to the direction of the prisoner.

 Chapter 1157

    Zhang Xiu and his party went to the camp where the prisoners were. On the way, they didn''t meet anyone.


    However, Shi a put forward different views.


    Shia lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, we have sneaked into the Japanese barracks. If we directly rescue the prisoners, we are the best. But if we capture the thief and the king, we will kill the Japanese Tokugawa Jiakang. Then, the Japanese army is self defeating. Compared with rescuing prisoners, killing Tokugawa Jiakang is the most direct. "


    Zhang Xiu squinted and said, "it''s not easy to kill Tokugawa Jiakang. That''s why we didn''t choose this strategy. But since you mentioned it, we still have plenty of time. Let''s have a try. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu and his party began to shift direction.


    However, in such a large military camp, Zhang Xiu was not a member of the army, so he didn''t know about Tokugawa Jiakang''s account of the Chinese army. He just met a Japanese soldier on the way out and got the news after he was interrogated.


    After killing the Japanese soldiers, Zhang Xiu and his party went to the big account of the Chinese army in Tokugawa Jiakang.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the Chinese Army''s big account.


    Zhang Xiu four people hide in the dark, carefully look at Tokugawa Jiakang''s army account. Outside the barracks, a group of soldiers took up protection and surrounded the barracks, so that no one could threaten the safety of Tokugawa.


    Zhang Xiu roughly swept around, and the troops outside the Tokugawa camp were at least 200.


    This must be Tokugawa''s personal guard.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fall on the middle-aged man who stands with a sword in his arms, but is squinting and dozing. Zhang Xiu stares at the middle-aged man. He has a good idea after a careful examination. This person is a master, even if not Zhang Xiu''s opponent, but at least to a certain extent can contain Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "there are two or three hundred soldiers outside the tent of the Tokugawa family. In the dark, I''m afraid there are still soldiers stationed for protection. We''re going to assassinate Tokugawa. It won''t work. Come on, let''s go to the camp where the prisoners are. "


    "Yes


    Shi''a, Lu Bu and Deng Zhanqi should join in.


    They all want to win Tokugawa. The problem is that Tokugawa is too cautious. Even if Zhang Xiu wanted to get close, it was difficult. She had to step back and continue her previous plan.


    It took a quarter of an hour for Zhang Xiu and his party to arrive at the place where the prisoners were detained.


    All the captives of the Cao army and the flying bear army of the Qin army were held together. Thousands of people were detained, and the camp was not warm, even windy.


    This is a very difficult environment.


    In particular, all the prisoners had only one meal a day. Under this premise, they were not satisfied at all, but they were not hungry. After all, they could still eat.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the Japanese soldiers guarding outside the camp.


    There were only ten Japanese soldiers guarding such a large camp. In fact, Tokugawa didn''t pay attention to the prisoners at all. The reason is very simple. On the one hand, the prisoners do not have any weapons. On the other hand, they are always short of food and strength. The most important thing is that there are Japanese troops in the barracks.


    Two or three thousand captives can''t lift the waves.


    This is Tokugawa''s cognition.


    So, it''s just ten Japanese soldiers guarding.


    Deng Zhan looked around and said, "Your Majesty, there are a few soldiers stationed not far from here. Once something happens here, the Japanese soldiers not far away will immediately come back to help. Therefore, if we want to take action, we must quickly solve this group of Japanese soldiers quietly. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for the plan to succeed. "


    Shia said: "Your Majesty, I also think so."


    Lu Bu''s eyes were rolling, full of energy, and said, "I can do it one on two, or even one on three. I was able to kill two Japanese soldiers one on two without a sound. As for the third, it depends on the speed. "


    Zhang Xiu listened to a few people''s words and laughed.


    There is no such difficulty.


    It is not difficult to deal with the soldiers of these ten Japanese countries.


    Zhang Xiu is still hiding in the dark, but he did a strange action, hand in front of the mouth. With the development of Zhang Xiu, the sound of bird''s call came from her mouth.


    The sound is crisp and high.


    With the spread of the voice, some of the Japanese soldiers guarding the camp where the prisoners were located were surprised. Because in this camp, there was a bird call, which was really strange.


    "Lin Zhongjun, follow me to have a look."


    The general in charge of guarding, Yuantian Feimu, gave an order.


    Lin Zhongjun, as he called him, was called Lin zhongsan Lang, who immediately stepped out and went with Yuantian Feimu to find out where Zhang Xiu was.


    Harada was not in the wood''s heart, but he didn''t feel any danger. After all, it''s a little bit of wood in the town, and it''s not taken by the army.He and Saburo went on, and soon he was in the dark.


    The rest of the soldiers at the gate of the barracks could not see the log fields.


    Zhang Xiu is decisive.


    With only two bangs, Harada Feimu and Junichiro Hayashi were knocked unconscious on the ground. But Zhang Xiu didn''t leave her hand. She twisted their necks and threw their bodies aside.


    Zhang Xiu is hiding in the dark again. He doesn''t go out.


    As time went by, half a quarter of an hour later, Harada Feimu and Junichiro Hayashi never went back. Under such a premise, the other eight Japanese soldiers who stayed at the gate of the barracks looked at each other face to face. After each of them looked at each other, they decided to go to investigate the situation together.


    No one dares to go alone.


    After all, neither Yuantian Feimu nor Linzhong Sanlang ever came back. No one knows what happened.


    Eight Japanese soldiers work together. In a twinkling of an eye, they are close to where Zhang Xiu is. Although the number of the eight Japanese soldiers is twice that of Zhang Xiu, in fact, there is not much difference in handling them.


    Just listen to the sound of bang bang, eight Japanese soldiers were knocked to the ground.


    Or be killed.


    Or get knocked out.


    Zhang Xiu asked Shi a to kill all the people, and then took them to the camp where the prisoners were. When Zhang Xiu lifted the curtain of the barracks door and entered the barracks, she frowned.


    In this camp, it was extremely cold, even windy on all sides, and the soldiers of the flying bear army, or Cao army, were all lightly dressed and huddled together in twos and threes.


    They all nestled up for warmth.


    After all, there is no brazier.


    No thick clothes.


    In addition, the stomach is not full, so that in this camp, the body is shivering.


    Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu''s face is even colder, and she has a deeper mind to kill Tokugawa. Zhang Xiu nodded to Deng Zhan and Shi a, then they turned to leave the camp and went out to let the wind.


    They have to make sure that no one is coming now.


    Otherwise, once the army comes, it will be extremely dangerous and will affect the progress of the plan.


    So someone has to look out.


    Zhang Xiu looked at it carefully. The thousands of people crowded together, but they were not captured. They were all sitting on the ground, and they didn''t even have a quilt. Such an environment has greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of these soldiers.


    When Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu appeared, some soldiers looked over and around.


    Ignore Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu.


    After all, I don''t know.


    However, some of the prisoners in the camp, whether they were soldiers of the Cao army or soldiers of the flying bear army, knew Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu. When they saw Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu appear, suddenly someone called out to his majesty, and the crowd was excited.


    "Be quiet. Don''t talk. Listen to me."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve was brushed, he ordered directly. His voice was as firm as iron, and there was no doubt about it. With Zhang Xiu''s order, some restless soldiers were all quiet.


    One by one, they stopped talking.


    A pair of eyes, all fell on the body of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1158

    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the soldiers and said in a loud voice: "among you, there are people from the flying bear army and the state of Wei, but whether it is the flying bear army or the state of Wei, they are all Chinese sons."


    "As a Chinese son, how can he be a prisoner of the Japanese?"


    "Today, I come to take you home."


    "Today, I come to save you."


    Zhang Xiu soft eyes, eyes with encouragement, said: "you are here, hard."


    WOW!!


    When the prisoners heard the words, they were talking all the time.


    One by one, they were even more excited.


    The eyes, directly full of crystal tears, bean tears, do not want money directly from the cheek. On all the faces, there are feelings, gratitude and joy.


    They are defeated generals.


    They are prisoners.


    But when Zhang Xiu arrived, she didn''t ask for a crime, and she didn''t scold her. Instead, she comforted them and said she would take them home. To take them home is to poke them in their hearts and make them warm.


    Even the soldiers of the state of Wei were very excited.


    I am very grateful to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the soldiers in the camp. He saw many soldiers with tears in their eyes, and saw many soldiers excited and nodded slightly. These soldiers, even if they are captured, can still fight a war if they have enough morale.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t speak for the time being, and let the soldiers vent their inner feelings.


    Let the soldiers whisper.


    After a long time, the voices of all the soldiers gradually subsided. Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. They are looking forward to Zhang Xiu''s words.


    Zhang Xiu mentioned one breath, then said in a loud voice: "today, I have taken the army to the city of Niaodao county to ambush. Everything is in place. I''ll wait for my order. "


    "But if I want to give orders, it depends on your situation."


    "Are you going to fight again?"


    "Do you dare to fight again?"


    Zhang Xiu has sharp eyes and asks directly. His words are full of high morale. Because Zhang Xiu now, after stabilizing the mood of the soldiers, he wants to boost their morale and let all the soldiers dare to fight.


    Despite the lack of weapons, but also dare to fight to the death.


    "Your Majesty, we dare to fight."


    In the crowd, someone stood up first and answered in a loud voice.


    "Your Majesty, we dare to fight."


    "Your Majesty, the bear army is not afraid of the first battle."


    "There is no coward in our country, your majesty."


    ¡­¡­


    All soldiers, one after another.


    Countless people, high morale.


    More and more sounds are coming together. The sound is quite high. In this silent barracks, suddenly, someone cried so, it is to break the night.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu did not delay any longer and ordered: "Lv Bu, let go the arrow."


    "Here it is


    Lu budeling immediately walked out of the barracks and took out the arrow he was carrying to light the fire. This ring arrow is no longer a simple ring arrow, it is propelled by gunpowder. With the burning of gunpowder and the launch of the arrow, there was not only a sharp piercing sound, but also the burning of fire.


    In this case, the message can be delivered more clearly.


    In an instant, the arrow''s lift off has been delivered to the outside of the city.


    Ganning, who had been stationed outside the city, did not delay any longer and immediately ordered: "kill!"


    With Gan Ning''s command, the army was out in a mighty way. In particular, the vanguards in the army have already gone straight to the gate with gunpowder on their shoulders. This group of soldiers close to the gate, quickly put the powder, and then began to ignite.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fire flickered and the fuse kept burning.


    "Boom!"


    Suddenly, the powder burst.


    Boom!!


    One after another gunpowder explosion, the sound immediately resounded through the world. The gate, which was not so thick, collapsed in an instant, and even the city wall showed signs of collapse.


    "Kill! Go in


    Gan Ning constantly ordered the soldiers to attack with drums in the rear.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums of war are ringing all the time.


    The drums are rumbling and reverberating in the air.


    More and more Qin soldiers, already close to the gate, launched an attack.


    Its offensive is more and more fierce.


    On the one hand, the Japanese soldiers stationed on the castle quickly dispatched troops to resist, on the other hand, they went to the barracks to report the news.


    In fact, when the explosion sounded, even Tokugawa Jiakang, who had fallen asleep in the military camp in the city, woke up. Tokugawa, who already had gunpowder, knew the situation of gunpowder, so as soon as he heard the gunpowder burst, he immediately turned over and got up, quickly put on the armor, and then called the officers and men in the army together."Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, the sentinel has entered rapidly.


    When the sentinel saw Tokugawa Jiakang, he reported: "Your Majesty, the matter is not good. The Qin army suddenly appeared outside the city and destroyed the gate. Now, it''s time to enter the city. Our army is actively resisting. "


    "I see!"


    Tokugawa beckons.


    After the sentry retreated, Tokugawa Jiakang said in a deep voice: "originally, my plan was to confront Zhang Xiu with the help of the city wall and threaten Zhang Xiu with the prisoners in my hand. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu suddenly launched an attack, and now she is in the city. In a hurry, to resist the attack of the Qin army, these prisoners could not be used. Now, let''s fight with all our strength. After we beat back Zhang Xiu, we escort the prisoners and then threaten Zhang Xiu. "


    After hearing this, everyone agreed.


    Abe said: "Your Majesty, even so. We also have to leave some soldiers, so as to ensure the safety of the camp and avoid the disturbance of the prisoners. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    At this time, there is Takagi Qingxiu laughing.


    Gao Mu Qingxiu''s face was full of disdain and disdain, and said: "Mr Abe, you look up to these three thousand prisoners too much. During this period of time, we have been withholding food and clothing, especially since they have no weapons. Such a group of people are not enough for fear. "


    "Especially during this period, there were only more than ten people holding 3000 prisoners."


    "No more people are arranged."


    "It can be seen that these three thousand prisoners are not enough to fear. So your worry is totally unreasonable and groundless. You worry too much. "


    Gao muqingxiu solemnly said: "Abe''s Army division, now fighting with Zhang Xiu, can''t leave too many troops. Now, we must do our best to wipe out the Qin army. In this way, Zhang Xiu damaged the army, but it was not like we could replenish our forces. If Zhang Xiu had no troops, she would be defeated. "


    Abe frowned and said, "Gao Mujun, you should be more cautious."


    "It''s unnecessary!"


    Gaomu Qingxiu''s face showed disdain.


    He despised the prisoners in the army.


    Abe Boya is not willing to argue with Takagi Qingxiu. His eyes turn and fall on Tokugawa Jiakang, waiting for Tokugawa Jiakang''s decision. Abe''s heart is also full of hope, hoping that Tokugawa Jiakang can attach importance to his opinions.


    After thinking about it in his heart, Tokugawa said: "this battle against the Qin army is really not to be despised. We need to fight with all our strength. So in this war, our main forces have to go out and fight Zhang Xiu to annihilate each other''s forces. "


    Takaki gave Abe a proud look and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Abe''s heart is lost.


    However, he still believes in his own judgment and does not think he is wrong.


    However, Tokugawa continued: "however, three thousand prisoners should not be underestimated. So Abe, you go to the camp of the prisoner immediately and check the situation. We are going to fight. If the prisoners are OK, we will fight with all our strength. If there are some problems, some soldiers will be left behind. "


    "Emperor Shengming!"


    Abe was overjoyed.


    His majesty still believes in him.


    Therefore, Abe did not dare to delay and immediately stood up to leave the camp and went to the place where the prisoners were.


    Tokugawa Jiakang, on the other hand, ordered the generals under his command to mobilize their troops and then went directly to meet them. Sichuan Boya and other soldiers did not leave home.

 Chapter 1159

    Abe Boya was ordered to go to the camp where the prisoners were. In fact, he had nothing to worry about.


    After all, this is the base of Japan.


    Abe''s worry is that after the war between the Japanese army and the Qin army, the prisoners will start to make trouble, which will affect the fighting on the front line. In order to save time, he has wind under his feet and walks fast.


    In a short time, the camp where the prisoners lived was getting closer and closer.


    Just before Abe''s teeth got close, Shi a, who had been secretly watching, found out. Shi a returns quickly, returns to the barracks, looks at Zhang Xiu who has started the whole army, and says: "Your Majesty, someone is coming."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, let Shi a still stare outside.


    In addition, Zhang Xiu did not move.


    He''s right in the camp.


    It wasn''t long before Abe was outside the camp. He didn''t feel any danger. He lifted the curtain of the tent and went straight in. However, when Abe entered the moment, his eyes widened and his face showed a look of shock.


    The prisoners in the camp are killing one by one.


    Everyone, no longer wilting.


    Everyone, full of war.


    Such an army is beyond Abe''s expectation. Because Abe Boya often visits the prisoners, the prisoners he sees are all wilting, one by one losing their fighting capacity. But now this scene gives ABE the feeling of falling into a tiger''s den, and he seems to be entering a tiger''s mouth.


    Abe''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Xiu not far away.


    At this moment, Abe''s pupils shrink.


    The eyes are more dignified.


    The people in front of him, just standing in front of him, put endless pressure on Abe, making him very uncomfortable. Even this kind of aura is stronger than that of Tokugawa Jiakang, which makes Abe''s heart upset.


    Who is this?


    This man was well-dressed, handsome and dignified. He was not from the camp.


    Abe said, "who are you?"


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose to a smile and said, "you ask me who I am. Your Japanese army is not Jiji''s camp. If you want to defeat my army, do you want to go north to Daqin?"


    Abe exclaimed, "are you Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Abe was even more surprised and said, "you, you, how can you be in the camp where the prisoners are? Why are you here? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "why can''t I be here. Tonight, my army, the Japanese army in Tottori County, will sweep Tokugawa Jiakang. And I''m worried about the officers and men under my command, so naturally I''ll come. "


    Abe Bo Ya heard Zhang Xiu''s words. He was thrilled. As soon as his legs softened, he collapsed on the ground.


    It''s over!


    It''s over!


    Zhang Xiu has sneaked into the army, where can they fight with Zhang Xiu.


    Japan can''t afford this war.


    Abe''s heart, extremely panic, he opened his mouth and said: "Zhang Xiu, spare me, spare my life!"


    As Tokugawa''s military adviser, Abe Boya has great insight. Knowing that he can''t resist, he immediately begged for mercy. It''s the so-called "keep the Castle Peak" without worrying about firewood. As long as you keep your life, there will be opportunities in the future.


    This is Abe''s view.


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s the use of keeping you? All the Japanese should be killed. "


    Abe said: "Zhang Xiu, if you kill me, I will scream and the soldiers in the camp will be killed immediately. At that time, you will be surrounded by a large army. You can''t escape. I''m dead, and you can''t live. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "you can have a try to see if someone is coming to save you and if there are soldiers in the army. Now, the army under my command has attacked Tottori County, and the army of Tokugawa Jiakang will surely be attracted to the past. Under such a premise, there can be no big army in such a big camp. "


    Brush!


    Abe''s face changed again and again. In order to protect himself, he said in a loud voice: "I know the situation of Tokugawa Jiakang. Emperor Qin, I can work for you. I''m willing to work for you."


    Anyway, he didn''t want to die.


    Save your life first.


    Zhang Xiu still shakes her head. He turns to look at the soldiers in the barracks and says in a loud voice: "today, our fighting is based on this person to sacrifice the flag. Who will come up and kill this Liao for me? "


    "I''ll do it!"


    In the crowd, a young general rushed out, made a lunge and came to Abe''s face. He swung his fist and hit him on the heart. The shrill scream came from Abe''s mouth. Even Abe felt that he was going to be hard to breathe.


    It''s just that the pain has just slowed down a little, and it''s another blow.


    "Bang!"


    The hard fist fell on Abe''s heart again.


    Under the impact of heavy force, Abe''s body trembled and he felt that his heart was about to break. But this time, he did not slow down, his fist had fallen down again."Bang! Bang


    His fist fell like rain beating banana, constantly hitting Abe''s heart.


    A moment later, Abe''s mouth bleeding, the body has been soft down.


    The young general biting his teeth and clasping his fist said: "Your Majesty, I will live up to my mission and kill Abe Boya. This man once came to recruit us and told us his identity. He is the military adviser of Tokugawa Jiakang, and he is the worst. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, some accident.


    Unexpectedly, it killed the military division of Tokugawa Jiakang. This time, it was good.


    Zhang Xiu said: "now, sacrifice the flag with Abe Boya''s head. Sons, we will go to the camp now, take out our weapons, and then go directly to kill Tokugawa Jiakang."


    "Kill


    Cry, suddenly sounded.


    This time, all the soldiers yelled.


    Previously, the soldiers answered Zhang Xiu''s words. In fact, all the voices were suppressed. After all, everyone understood that they should not shout too loud to avoid exposure. But now, the war drums are coming from outside the city. Ganning has led the army to attack. In addition, Tokugawa Jiakang has left with the army. They are already worried about the house and just need to do their best.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she took the army out of the camp and went straight to the equipment warehouse in the camp.


    At this time, we met a group of soldiers left by Tokugawa Jiakang to Abe Boya on the way. However, the number of soldiers in this group is no more than 100. In the face of thousands of troops, more than 100 people, even with weapons, are vulnerable.


    After annihilating the army, Zhang Xiu went directly to the army with a weapon. After all, the soldiers in the army are short of weapons.


    Only with weapons can we fight the first World War.


    Armed with all the soldiers, Zhang Xiu left the camp with the men and began to run to the west city of Tottori county.


    This time, Zhang Xiu will be surrounded.


    We should attack Tokugawa Jiakang.


    Even though Tokugawa has 60000 or 70000 elite troops, today, Tokugawa is in a disadvantageous position in internal and external attacks. Therefore, if Zhang Xiu wants to win, he has great confidence.


    When Zhang Xiu was on his way, Tokugawa Jiakang had already led his troops to the west city and began to attack the Qin army with the Japanese soldiers guarding the city.


    Under the personal command of Tokugawa Jiakang, all his generals were put into the battlefield.


    For a time, the killing was in full swing.


    The battle in the battlefield continues, but Tokugawa Jiakang''s face is gradually gloomy. He had already climbed the castle and carefully examined the situation of both sides. In terms of the number of troops, the number of soldiers of the Qin army was actually smaller than that of his troops. But the problem is that the result of the fighting is that his troops are not as good as Zhang Xiu''s.


    This is puzzling.


    Tokugawa Jiakang personally beat the battle drum and ordered his soldiers to fight to the end.


    He wants to win the war.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentinel came to Tokugawa and reported: "Your Majesty, it''s not good. The prisoners in the barracks revolted and the Army division was killed. Today, thousands of prisoners in the city have been killed in our direction. "


    Brush!


    Tokugawa''s face changed again and again.


    It''s over!


    He was really caught in the middle.


    This time, Tokugawa Jiakang was wrapped with dumplings before and after, and may even face the crisis of life and death.

 Chapter 1160

    Tokugawa Jiakang''s face is still resolute, but in his eyes, there is a trace of worry. Because under the current situation, the Japanese army under his command has been caught in the dilemma of two-phase attack. If he doesn''t pay attention, it will be in danger of toppling over.


    Fortunately, the army under the command of Tokugawa Jiakang has temporarily blocked the offensive into the city, so at least this part outside the city can stabilize the situation for the time being.


    Tokugawa knows that although he is in danger, he still has a chance.


    "Tall and clear!"


    Tokugawa said.


    "The end will be here!"


    Kao muqingxiu answered immediately.


    Tokugawa said: "you lead three thousand elite, immediately back a mile, blocking the road to the west city. Once the prisoners in the city appear, you immediately go to meet them and block their attack. "


    "Yes, sir


    Takagi Qingxiu immediately responded.


    For Takagi, he doesn''t think it''s too difficult. Immediately, Gao muqingxiu and his army left quickly and went to the official road to block the captured army.


    Tokugawa Jiakang watched Gao muqingxiu leave and turned his eyes to the Qin army who entered the city.


    Now, his task is to stop this group of people.


    Stop the Qin army from entering the city.


    Only in this way can the situation be reversed.


    Tokugawa Jiakang constantly deployed troops and sent all the generals under his command. It can be said that Tokugawa has done his best to win the war.


    When Tokugawa Jiakang was fighting with the Qin army led by Ganning, the army led by Zhang Xiu had already come from the camp and was close to the west of the city, and was about to reach the tower of the west city.


    Gao muqingxiu arrived early. All the 3000 troops under his command are in place. When Zhang Xiu led the army to arrive, Gao muqingxiu rode forward and cut off his sword: "kill! Kill these defeated generals


    At the command, the army came out.


    Zhang Xiu and his party were attacked by a great army.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth is filled with disdain. Tokugawa Jiakang is so confident that he only sent a small number of people to resist. He intended to delay his attack. It''s just wishful thinking.


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave the order decisively.


    It doesn''t need Zhang Xiu''s strength, it doesn''t need Zhang Xiu''s support, it just needs the enemy to meet and be very jealous. Zhang Xiu''s soldiers, armed with weapons, have rushed up and launched a strong attack.


    Lu Bu is also carrying a painting halberd to kill.


    The halberd in his hand was found in the Japanese armory. Although I don''t have my own painting halberd, it''s good. Although there was no horse in Lu Bu''s crotch, even so, he rushed to the front and went straight to the Japanese soldiers.


    But in the blink of an eye, Lu Bu and the Japanese soldiers met. He saw Fang Tianhua''s halberd in Lu Bu''s hand swung up, swept gently in the air, and then cut off the weapons of the Japanese soldiers in front of him.


    Fang Tianhua''s Halberd falls and cuts down on the body, cuts the skin and forces it into the flesh and blood.


    For a moment, blood spattered.


    Lu Bu''s entry into the Japanese soldiers was like entering a land of no one. Only to see a body fell, a pengpeng blood flying, but Lu Bu is steadily forward.


    "To die!"


    Seeing Lu Bu''s arrogance, Gao Mu Qingxiu raced to Lu Bu.


    He was not far away from Lu Bu. With a sprint, Gao Mu Qingxiu arrived in front of Lu Bu. The horse stopped. Gao Mu''s sword had been cut down.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Lu Bu''s eyes disdained him and waved his halberd.


    I saw a cold light in the air, the next moment, Fang Tian painting halberd and saber Bang together.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Lu Bu stood still on the ground, but the tall wood on the horse''s back was clear and beautiful. He only felt that there was a powerful impact coming, which made him unable to hold the sword.


    The next moment, the sword blows.


    Fang Tian''s painting halberd is indomitable, Yila, then cut Gao Mu Qingxiu''s chest, cut into the body.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed out immediately.


    Gao muqingxiu screamed out, but he could not sit still any more. He looked up and fell to the ground.


    Taking advantage of the victory, Lu Bu rushed to Gao Mu Qingxiu''s body with one lunge. Fang Tianhua put his halberd in, and with a puff, it had penetrated into Gao Mu Qingxiu''s chest.


    But a face-to-face, Gao muqingxiu was killed.


    "Kill


    Lu Bu drank low and entered the crowd again.


    With the killing of Lu Bu, Deng Zhan, Shi a and Zhang Xiu are all fighting together and attacking constantly. Under the crazy attack of a few people, the Japanese army was not stable at all. It was defeated like a mountain and collapsed quickly. Especially when the news of Gao muqingxiu''s death came out, the Japanese army, which was supposed to stop Zhang Xiu and his party, was defeated.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, move on.


    Xicheng, which was soon approached by the army, was like a sharp knife, which was inserted into the back of Tokugawa Jiakang''s stomach.At this moment, Tokugawa was attacked by the enemy.


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    Tokugawa Jiakang was so angry that he sent Gao muqingxiu to stop the rebels. He wanted to stop the rebels in the city, so that the prisoners in the city could not meet the Qin army outside the city.


    But now, the two sides are converging.


    So that Tokugawa Jiakang was made dumplings, completely lost the chance to win.


    In this war, Tokugawa was defeated.


    "Take Tokugawa Jiakang alive and kill him!"


    "Take Tokugawa alive!"


    "Today is the day to kill Tokugawa. Boys, kill! It''s time to make contributions, kill


    ¡­¡­


    Shouts, one after another.


    More and more soldiers are shouting that the morale of the Qin army is like a rainbow. With such a strong morale and such a strong military strength, the army under the command of Tokugawa Jiakang has been losing and can no longer resist.


    Tokugawa Jiakang frowned, and his expression was even more helpless.


    "Your Majesty, our army has begun to rout. Let''s get out of here. We can''t keep our troops


    "Emperor, retreat."


    "Your Majesty, let''s withdraw!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more generals advised that at this moment the main generals of the whole Japanese nation chose to withdraw. It''s not that they don''t want to fight, it''s that they can''t keep fighting.


    "Go away!"


    Tokugawa had no choice but to give orders.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    The heralds in the army yelled, followed by the sound of the Gong, which spread to all the Japanese soldiers. One by one, Japanese soldiers retreated crazily and did not dare to resist.


    That''s exactly the case. There are more casualties.


    There were countless casualties, and even many Japanese soldiers fell to the ground because of the crowding in the rear, and were trampled to death by the people coming up from the rear.


    After the defeat of Tokugawa Jiakang, Zhang Xiu led the army to join Ganning and quickly killed the Japanese soldiers.


    Take advantage of his illness and kill him.


    This is the most normal truth.


    Zhang Xiu took the army to cover up and kill him from the west city to the east city. At this time, Tokugawa Jiakang had already escaped from the east city, but the army led by Zhang Xiu followed closely, making it impossible for Tokugawa Jiakang to get rid of the pursuers in the rear.


    Zhang Xiu, in particular, has turned over and started riding.


    It''s easier for the horses to run.


    Since Zhang Xiu has won this battle, he does not want to leave Tokugawa Jiakang, and wants to win Tokugawa Jiakang. He led Lv Bu''s people to pursue and kill countless Japanese soldiers along the way. The distance between him and Tokugawa Jiakang was getting closer and closer.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu can''t see Tokugawa Jiakang, but from the mouth of the sentinel, she knows the direction of Tokugawa Jiakang''s retreat. But now, Zhang Xiu is less than 60 steps away from the home of Dechuan.


    The two sides are getting closer and closer.


    The expectation in Zhang Xiu''s eyes is also increasingly strong. He is looking forward to meeting with Tokugawa Jiakang, a famous politician in the Warring States period of Japan. How did he come to this era.


    Tokugawa also retreated quickly.


    He didn''t want to die.


    He can''t die.


    Originally, he had already died, and his soul was so dim that he didn''t even have a trace of consciousness. Finally, he suddenly lived. Even if he lived in another time and space, at least he really lived.


    He wants a lot.


    He wanted to unify Japan.


    He wants to win China.


    He wanted to go further.


    But now, he didn''t do anything, so Tokugawa didn''t want to die. He still wanted to live, so Tokugawa kept beating his horse on the back, prompting his horses to retreat quickly.


    Unfortunately, the rear pursuers are getting closer and closer.


    Tokugawa is also more nervous.

 Chapter 1161

    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Tokugawa Jiakang cried out, constantly slapping the horse''s ass, urging the horse to speed up running. Unfortunately, the speed of Tokugawa''s retreat was slower than Zhang Xiu''s, and the distance between the two sides was still getting closer.


    Zhang Xiu drives the horse in a hurry. He straddles the horse and stares at the position where Tokugawa Jiakang is.


    There are more than ten bodyguards around Tokugawa.


    Further nearby, there is a team of soldiers to protect the safety of Tokugawa.


    Zhang Xiu galloped on her horse, drew a bow and arched constantly. One by one, the bows and arrows shot out and hit the pro guards around him, making the pro guards around him less and less.


    The distance between the two sides is getting closer.


    When the distance was shortened to less than 30 steps, the guards around him were almost shot. In a hurry, Tokugawa had to mobilize more soldiers to protect his safety.


    Tokugawa looked back, more worried, quickly ordered: "Sasaki Kojiro, you lead the troops to block, block the pursuit of the enemy for me."


    Kojiro Sasaki, a swordsman.


    Like Musashi Miyamoto, he works for Tokugawa. It''s just that Miyamoto Musashi is injured, and Sasaki Kojiro is in good health. He has been following Tokugawa to protect Tokugawa''s safety.


    After hearing the order of Tokugawa Jiakang, he immediately broke away from the army and stopped with a group of soldiers, ready to stop Zhang Xiu and his party. Kojiro Sasaki has been in the military for many years, and he has great insight.


    At a glance, he saw that Zhang Xiu was extraordinary.


    After all, Zhang Xiu has a different temperament.


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than ten steps, Sasaki Kojiro gave a low drink and went to kill Zhang Xiu with his sword. With the help of the horse, he used the horse''s power to chop with his sword.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are cold, and she swings a big gun in her hand.


    This big gun is as thick as a goose egg.


    It weighs more than 60 Jin, which is extremely heavy for ordinary people. But for Zhang Xiu, it is just like an armchair, which is extremely relaxed.


    The big gun met the sharp sword, and the weapon struck with a piercing sound.


    Under the attack of strength, Zhang Xiu was not affected at all, but Sasaki Kojiro''s face changed slightly. He only felt that the palm of his hand holding the hilt of the sword was numb and painful, almost tearing the tiger''s mouth.


    "What a strong and domineering force!"


    There was a shock in his heart. Knowing that he was invincible, he immediately withdrew his sword and prepared to retreat as soon as possible. After all, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. If he fights with Zhang Xiu again, he will find himself dead.


    Zhang Xiu is a move to power, the reason does not forgive. He swept the gun like lightning. The long gun is as fast as a stick. After leaving a flash of lightning in the air, the next moment, it has fallen on the waist of Kojiro Sasaki.


    "Bang!"


    The gun struck under the rib and made a dull noise.


    "Chaka! Click


    The sound of broken ribs came out again.


    Then, Kojiro Sasaki screamed bitterly, especially under the impact of the great power, he could no longer keep his shape. His lean body, directly inverted out, in the air across a parabola, and then crash to the ground.


    "Die


    At this time, Shi a arrow step forward.


    Shia killed the enemy on foot.


    After all, his swordsmanship is not suitable for fighting on horseback. So when Kojiro Sasaki landed, Shi a lunge close, iron sword swung cut, then cut off the neck of Kojiro Sasaki.


    "Poof!"


    The blood splashed like a spotted plum blossom.


    After the separation of the head and body, Kojiro Sasaki''s body twitched twice, and then there was no breath. Shi a didn''t take care of the killed Kojiro Sasaki and continued to attack again.


    Zhang Xiu also continued to move forward.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stop just because Kojiro Sasaki flew out. His goal was Tokugawa. Only by killing Tokugawa can this battle be regarded as a victory, and this offensive can be ended.


    "Today is the day to kill Tokugawa. Kill me, boys


    Zhang Xiu exclaimed.


    He kept galloping to shorten the distance between him and Tokugawa. Because of the resistance of Kojiro Sasaki just now, there was a delay, which made the distance between Zhang Xiu and Tokugawa Jiakang about 40 steps.


    That said, it doesn''t matter.


    In less than a moment, the distance between the two sides was shortened to 30 steps. Even, Zhang Xiu''s side, there are many soldiers, a pair of to kill Tokugawa Jiakang look.


    This battle has made Tokugawa Jiakang nervous.


    Tokugawa Jiakang is also a man who has been fighting for many years. He has rich experience in fighting. But now, he is like a dog who has lost his family. He is extremely frightened. He is afraid that he will be caught up, so he says again: "Yasunari, you lead the troops to resist."


    Not far from Tokugawa, there is Yasunari shinhara.This person is also an important general under the command of Tokugawa Jiakang, who has a strong voice. But now, the look on Yasunari''s face is also extremely solemn. It''s really hard to fight this war. They are already in trouble.


    But since Tokugawa Jiakang had already ordered, shinhara Kangzheng could not refuse. He could only quickly mobilize the army to directly stop Zhang Xiu and his party.


    In his hand, shinhara Kangzheng has a three pointed two edged sword.


    This is a rarely used weapon, but in the hands of Yasunari shinhara, this three pointed two edged sword has killed many enemies who dare to fight Tokugawa.


    Shinhara Kangzheng led the troops to block, and soon met Zhang Xiu''s army.


    The two sides immediately fought together.


    Shinhara''s strength is no less than that of Kojiro Sasaki. If it''s a fight under the horse, Yasunari shinhara doesn''t think he''s an opponent of Kojiro Sasaki. However, fighting on horseback, the moves open and close, the attack is very strong, Shenyuan Kangzheng is very powerful, so he thinks, fighting on horseback, he can fight with Zhang Xiu.


    "Die


    Shenyuan Kangzheng gave a loud shout, and the three pointed and two edged sword shook in the air, then stabbed Zhang Xiu''s heart.


    Zhang Xiu holds the gun.


    The big gun went up and hit the three pointed two edged sword, which made the direction of the three pointed two edged sword cheap. After Zhang Xiu moves to block, she swings the big gun and smashes it down again. He didn''t have the heart to fight with Yasunari, because Zhang Xiu''s goal was Tokugawa.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu did her best.


    One shot was fired with great momentum.


    One shot, no match.


    At the next moment, the big gun fell from the top of the head of Shenyuan Kangzheng.


    Shinhara Kangzheng could not avoid it. In a hurry, he quickly raised the three pointed two edged sword to resist. It''s just that the two points of the gun have been smashed on the three blades.


    Boom!!


    Shinhara Kangzheng only felt that there was a sudden blank in his mind.


    I was stunned.


    This force is too strong.


    Shinhara Kangzheng asked himself that his strength was not weak. But the problem is that the blow just now is the strongest force he has ever encountered in his life. As a result, the three pointed two edged sword in his hand was knocked out in an instant.


    The gun continued to fall.


    "Bang!"


    The barrel of the gun fell on Yasunari shinhara''s head.


    In a flash, shinhara Kangzheng''s brain broke, red and white splashed on the ground, and the whole person fell directly from the horse. This scene is extremely tragic and shocking.


    The Japanese soldiers who were going to be killed around them were scared when they saw the killing of Yasunari shinhara. They were ready to go forward, but now they are afraid, and some even turn around and withdraw.


    No one dares to stop Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    Zhang Xiu shouts and gallops with a big gun. When he looked forward, his eyes suddenly brightened, because the guards around Tokugawa Jiakang were shocked after Zhang Xiu killed shinhara Kangzheng just now.


    At this moment, it was the exposure of Tokugawa Jiakang, which made Zhang Xiu clearly see Tokugawa Jiakang.


    Here''s the chance!


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.

 Chapter 1162

    Now the distance between Zhang Xiu and Tokugawa Jiakang is 30 or 40 steps. Within this distance, Zhang Xiu''s bow and arrow can be said to hit a hundred times without any deviation.


    He put away his gun, took out the bow at his waist, held the bow in his left hand, and twisted a bow and arrow in his right hand. He put it on the bow string and aimed at the position where Tokugawa was.


    But Zhang Xiu frowned.


    This moment''s delay, Tokugawa Jiakang back heart staggered, has been unable to aim. Zhang Xiu can shoot an arrow, but even if she shoots an arrow at him, she can only hurt him. It''s hard to stop him from escaping.


    But Zhang Xiu knows that opportunities are fleeting on the battlefield. Without hesitation, he immediately made a decision. As soon as he released his hand, the bow and arrow came out of the string, turned into a streamer in the air, and went straight to the position where Tokugawa Jiakang was.


    "Puchi!"


    The bow and arrow went into the flesh, and the tail of the shaft swayed slightly.


    "Herod!"


    The horses hissed.


    His voice, full of pain, is crazy to run forward, and running, constantly shaking the body. Even Tokugawa Jiakang''s horse skill is good, but also difficult to control this horse.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    He can''t shoot Tokugawa Jiakang, then, shoot the horse under Tokugawa Jiakang''s crotch. As long as the horses scream in pain, Tokugawa Jiakang is bound to fall off the horse.


    This is the opportunity Zhang Xiu is waiting for.


    Tokugawa''s body is constantly bumping. Suddenly, his body can no longer be stable. His hand released the reins of the horse, and his body flew directly out of the horse''s back. With a bang, he fell to the ground.


    Tokugawa Ka Kang screamed. He felt pain all over his body, as if his whole body were falling apart.


    Pain!


    It hurts!


    Tokugawa wants to get up, but the severe pain makes it difficult for him to get up in a hurry. But when Tokugawa Jiakang looked back, he saw that Zhang Xiu was chasing him. He was getting closer and closer to him.


    "Help me, help me!"


    "Block the Qin army, block the offensive of the Qin army."


    Tokugawa Jiakang exclaimed, looking eager.


    He has just returned to Japan and won the war. Now he doesn''t want to die because he still has too many things to do and too many ambitions to realize.


    Unfortunately, even if someone stopped Zhang Xiu, the person who could stop in front of Zhang Xiu was killed face to face. In particular, Shenyuan Kangzheng was killed by Zhang Xiu. The bloody scene shocked the Japanese soldiers.


    Many people dare not stop Zhang Xiu.


    So the next moment, Zhang Xiu has arrived in front of Tokugawa Jiakang.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly tightened the reins of the horse. The horse in his crotch suddenly hissed, and the hooves in front of him also rose sharply in this instant.


    The next moment, the horse''s hooves fall.


    Exactly where the horse''s hooves fall is where Tokugawa is. If Tokugawa Jiakang does not evade, then the next moment, Tokugawa Jiakang will be trampled to death by the horses.


    Tokugawa didn''t want to die. At the critical moment, even though he was in pain, he didn''t know where he had the strength. Once he turned over, he quickly avoided the falling horse''s hooves.


    Bang!!


    After the horse''s hooves fell to the ground, Tokugawa Jiakang rolled to one side, gasping in his mouth.


    His face was full of horror.


    Terrible!


    It''s terrible!


    Just now, if it was not for his quick reaction, he is now a cold corpse. Tokugawa knew that the situation was critical, so he dodged the trampled horse''s hoof, put his hand on the ground for a support, and then he jumped up, took a step, and wanted to escape.


    Hoo!!


    Just then, a shadow fell.


    The long gun, like a stick, happened to fall on the shoulder of Tokugawa Jiakang, who just stood up and was ready to escape.


    "Chaka!"


    Broken bones, Tokugawa Jiakang is screaming.


    His body is no exception, fell to the ground, because the pain on the shoulder, so that he fell to the ground, the body is constantly twitching. His face is also extremely red, full of pain and despair.


    It''s over!


    I can''t escape!


    In his heart, Tokugawa was in despair.


    Especially the pain on the shoulder, let Tokugawa Jiakang pain. He fell to the ground, shaking. After a long time, Tokugawa''s pain was relieved. He looked up and saw that Zhang Xiu had stopped his horse and stood firmly in front of him.


    Zhang Xiu light said: "Tokugawa Jiakang, we finally met."


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s face was still full of pain, but when he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his eyes shrank. In his eye son, flit over frightened, say: "are you Zhang Xiu?"


    "Yes, I''m Zhang Xiu!"


    Zhang Xiu light answer, he zhengse way: "originally I thought, you Tokugawa Jiakang will be very powerful, will be very difficult to deal with. But I didn''t expect that you were just like that. Tokugawa, you are defeated now. "Tokugawa Jiakang sighed.


    Now, he is also in charge of the Japanese state, but in a twinkling of an eye, he has been defeated by Zhang Xiu.


    "I will surrender!"


    Tokugawa spoke.


    Now, he doesn''t want to win, he just wants to save his life temporarily. As long as his life is preserved, he has the means to turn over by his means.


    This is the idea of Tokugawa.


    But Zhang Xiu said, "do you know a word about Tokugawa Jiakang?"


    "What are you talking about?" Tokugawa said


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not my race, but my heart is different. People like you call themselves the emperor of Japan. To leave people like you is to leave disaster behind. So I''m going to kill you. If you don''t die, then I can''t explain to the people of the whole Qin Dynasty, and I can''t completely frighten the Japanese nation. You must die


    Boom!


    Tokugawa''s mind is blank again.


    I''m dying!


    He''s going to be killed!


    Tokugawa Jiakang bit his teeth and said in a loud voice, "if I, Tokugawa Jiakang, submit to you, it will be more beneficial to Daqin. Zhang Xiu, don''t kill me. Please don''t kill me. I''m a very useful person. It can not only handle government affairs for you, but also set up strategies for you to March and fight. "


    Zhang Xiu still shook her head.


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s eyes were sharp, and suddenly said: "Zhang Xiu, I know a lot of food you don''t know. The raw materials of these foods can make decisions about the delicious. In addition, I can help you innovate your weapons and make paper. In short, I can do a lot of things for you, and I''m still valuable. "


    Zhang Xiu still shook her head and refused.


    Tokugawa Jiakang suddenly went crazy. Unfortunately, his shoulder bone was broken by Zhang Xiu. It was impossible for him to stand up, so that he still lay on the ground and fell into despair.


    Zhang Xiu waved her big hand and said, "come on, take it!"


    With the capture of Tokugawa Jiakang, the remaining soldiers under Tokugawa Jiakang gave up their resistance.


    No more fighting.


    That''s what it is to capture the thief and the king.


    After Zhang Xiu took Tokugawa Jiakang, she didn''t fight any more and turned back to the county seat of Niaodao county.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu just got up for morning exercise. By this time, Gan Ning had come back.


    Ganning''s face was full of smile.


    He came to Zhang Xiu and waited quietly. After Zhang Xiu''s morning exercise, Gan Ning couldn''t wait to report: "Your Majesty, we have won this battle. In this war, more than 14000 Japanese soldiers were killed. As many as 35000 Japanese soldiers were captured. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and asked, "what about our losses?"


    Ganning said: "our loss is less than 2500 people. After all, in this battle, we only fought at the gate for a while at the beginning, and then covered up the Japanese soldiers. "


    After a pause, Gan Ning asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do with the captured Japanese soldiers?"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, way: "don''t worry, first Tokugawa Jiakang to me, I want to see."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning got the order, so he went to arrange it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu also went to change clothes and came to the hall.


    Not long after Zhang Xiu was seated, he saw that Tokugawa Jiakang was brought in. At this time, Tokugawa''s face was depressed and his eyes were even more frightened. There are other shoulder injuries, although after a simple bandage, but still very painful.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu with frightened eyes.


    Zhang Xiu of the Three Kingdoms, who is familiar with Chinese history, is well known. But in front of her, Zhang Xiu established the great Qin Dynasty, eliminated Cao Wei, Liu Bei and others, and unified the whole of China.

 Chapter 1163

    Zhang Xiu looks at Tokugawa Jiakang under the hall and waves her hand. Suddenly, all the attendants in the hall step down.


    In the hall, only Zhang Xiu and Tokugawa Jiakang were left.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "Tokugawa Jiakang, if I remember correctly, there is no one like you in Japan. I have not heard from you in the information of Cao Wei that I destroyed. However, when Huang Zhong was concerned about the destruction of Cao Wei''s troops, you suddenly appeared with your troops. Tell me, where were you hiding? "


    He didn''t point out that Tokugawa Jiakang came from later generations, just a normal inquiry.


    After hearing this, Tokugawa Jiakang said, "Zhang Xiu, I said I came from later generations, and I came more than 1000 years later. Do you believe it?"


    Zhang Xiu sneered.


    The laughter was full of disdain and disbelief.


    Zhang Xiu did it on purpose.


    When Tokugawa Jiakang saw Zhang Xiu''s look and expression, he knew that Zhang Xiu didn''t believe it. He said hurriedly: "what I said is true, absolutely not false. If there''s half a lie, it''s hard to die with five thunders in the sky. "


    Zhang Xiu snorted and said, "tell me how you came here more than a thousand years later."


    Tokugawa Jiakang suddenly stopped talking.


    He didn''t know how he came, because as soon as he appeared, his soldiers also appeared.


    It''s a miracle!


    "I don''t know how I got here," he said. In short, all of a sudden, it appeared in the Japanese state. "


    Kawabaton shogunate: "after a thousand years, kawabaton was in charge of our country."


    Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeves and said, "it has nothing to do with me. Since you are from more than 1000 years ago. Then I ask you, what is the future of Daqin in more than 1000 years. What''s my comment on Zhang Xiu after more than a thousand years


    It''s a deliberate cliche.


    Zhang Xiu himself is through, he knows the situation, but Zhang Xiu is not clear about Tokugawa Jiakang through the scene. What if Tokugawa''s situation is different?


    "In history, Zhang Xiu was just a warlord in Nanyang County. Later, she became obedient to Cao Cao and ended up depressed. Even in the late Han Dynasty, the history should be Cao Wei, Sun Wu and Liu Bei, who lived in Yizhou. In the end, Sima Yi seized the power and unified the whole world. Today, the world is in chaos, totally different from history. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu understood that the environment of Tokugawa was the same as history.


    It''s just that the time of crossing is different.


    As for why Tokugawa Jiakang crossed, it''s not known. After all, Zhang Xiu''s own crossing was black in his eyes, and he didn''t know what it was.


    After Zhang Xiu interrogated him, he knew the situation and lost his mind to bring Tokugawa Jiakang up for trial again. He said, "come on!"


    A soldier rushed in.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take Tokugawa Jiakang and put him in custody."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to leave with Tokugawa.


    Tokugawa Jiakang''s heart, a mention up, Zhang Xiu does not say surrender thing, also do not say to kill things. It is precisely such a situation that makes Tokugawa Jiakang extremely alarmed.


    What if Zhang Xiu wants to kill him?


    Tokugawa Jiakang is an experienced old fox who knows that as long as he survives, he will have a chance. Once he died, there was no chance, so he said: "Zhang Xiu, I''m willing to submit to you, I''m willing to work for you. I know more about history. I can tell you everything. I can help you


    Zhang Xiu turned a deaf ear, waved her hand, and the soldiers escorted him out.


    In this case, Tokugawa is even more flustered.


    It''s over!


    He''s going to be killed.


    Tokugawa didn''t want to die. He kept struggling. However, under the custody of the soldiers, Tokugawa couldn''t break free at all. Soon, he was dragged out of the hall.


    Zhang Xiu immediately asked people to send people to invite Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Pang Tong, Guo Jia, Xun you, Xun Yu and others. All of them entered together, and their faces were full of bright smiles.


    This battle, won!


    The chaos of the Japanese nation is settled!


    Originally, the sudden appearance of Tokugawa Jiakang made the situation in Japan chaotic. But now, with the capture of Tokugawa Jiakang, the situation in Japan can no longer be turbulent.


    The Japanese state will soon be restored to the Japanese state.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "I''m calling you up because the situation in Japan has been completely settled. Next, we will stay for a while to stabilize the situation in Oklahoma. Then, we will set out to return. But before that, we need to do one more thing, that is, to deal with Tokugawa and the prisoners. What do you think of that? "


    Huang Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing to say. Minister is an attitude, kill! All the soldiers of Japan have been killed. Only by doing so can we ensure the peace of Wo state. "


    This time in Wozhou, Huang Zhong suffered a big loss.His troops were almost lost, and the bear army was badly damaged. Next, the flying bear army will recruit soldiers again, but the combat effectiveness of the flying bear army will also decrease a lot.


    This is the anger of Huang Zhong.


    When Zhang Xiu heard Huang Zhong''s words, she didn''t make a statement. Instead, she waited for everyone to speak.


    Gan Ning echoed: "Your Majesty, I also agree with general Hansheng''s analysis. After the war, all the Japanese soldiers must be executed. To leave the Japanese soldiers behind is to leave disaster behind. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, I have different opinions."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Guo Jia said: "if you remember well, when your Majesty was in Liucheng, he sold all the captured Wuhuan people to the aristocratic families and businessmen in the territory of the Qin Dynasty, and made a lot of money."


    "Today, countless prisoners are involved."


    "These prisoners are not Han people, but Japanese people, so they can take the same way. After the Japanese were shipped, they were sent back to Qingzhou by sea and land and sold by the imperial court. "


    Guo Jiachen said: "in this way, we can not only solve the crisis of Japanese people, but also make a lot of money. In today''s Daqin, because after the land reform, the number of slaves in every household decreased, there was a great demand for slaves. Nowadays, the slave trade is a big business with huge profits. "


    "I don''t agree!"


    When Xun Yu heard this, he shook his head and denied it.


    Guo Jia didn''t rush to retort. Instead, he turned to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, please judge."


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient. She looked at Xun Yu and said, "if Wen is against the slave trade of the Japanese, what''s your opinion. What''s your objection? If there are good reasons, I will take your advice. "


    Xun Yu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, when you fight with the Wuhuan people, all the captured Wuhuan people are slaves. Now when you fight with the Japanese people, all the captured Japanese people are still slaves. After the formation of such a convention, does it mean that in the future, when fighting with countries other than the Qin Dynasty, whether the captives have to be traded? "


    Zhang xiudao said: "this is the way to ensure a war without losing money. Simply relying on the imperial court to supply money and food, the imperial court was under great pressure. If you don''t make money or get benefits in a war, the more you fight, the poorer you will be, and the more you fight, the stronger you will be. "


    Xun Yu said: "but this is detrimental to the prestige of the state of etiquette. Whether in the spring and Autumn period, the Warring States period, or the Qin and Han Dynasties, China is a country of etiquette. Nowadays, there is a lot of talk about buying and selling, even in war. I don''t think that''s desirable. "


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Xun Yu''s meaning, he has generally understood, because such concerns are possessed by a normal Confucian. Xun Yu was also a Confucian scholar and a Confucian son, so he did not agree with the slave trade.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "Wen Ruo, everything has advantages and disadvantages, it is to weigh the pros and cons to make a choice. If the captured slaves are not traded in this war, the rewards of the fighting soldiers and the pensions of the dead soldiers will be affected. Would you rather tarnish your reputation, or would you rather have your soldiers cold? "


    Xun Yu frowned.


    A moment later, Xun Yu continued: "but Daqin is not short of money. The consumption of the soldiers in this war is enough to be provided by the Qin court alone, so that the interests of the soldiers will not be damaged. "


    He still retorted.


    He didn''t want to give in because Xun Yu didn''t agree with buying and selling prisoners, which affected the reputation of Daqin.

 Chapter 1164

    After Xun Yu finished his words, he also looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, I''d like to ask you to make a judgment. However, when it comes to the prestige of the Qin Dynasty, please think twice. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, but did not make a statement.


    In his mind, he has his own thoughts.


    The reason why everyone is called to ask for opinions is, on the one hand, to listen to both sides is to be clear, and on the other hand, to see everyone''s attitude towards this matter is also helpful for Zhang Xiu to grasp the balance.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd and said, "what''s the other people''s opinion? If you have an idea, just say it. "


    "Your Majesty, I agree with Guo Jia."


    At this time, it is Cheng Yu''s mouth. For an old man like Cheng Yu, it''s impossible to care about false names. What he cares about is real interests, which can be seen and felt.


    This is what Cheng Yu pays most attention to.


    So Cheng Yu took the initiative to speak.


    Others also expressed their opinions, but some agreed with Xun Yu''s words, and others agreed with Guo Jia''s words. In addition, some people, like Gan Ning and Huang Zhong, think that prisoners should be killed.


    Everyone has their own opinions.


    There is no unified view.


    This requires Zhang Xiu to cut.


    Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu, waiting for Zhang Xiu to make a ruling.


    Zhang Xiu was not impatient and said: "whether it''s killing all the Japanese soldiers, selling all the Japanese soldiers, or not dealing with the Japanese soldiers and taking care of the prestige of the Qin state, in short, there is a certain truth."


    "I can understand your starting point."


    "But this time, there is a certain particularity."


    "Under normal circumstances, I will adopt Guo Jia''s plan to send all the prisoners back to Daqin and let the imperial court sell the profits to earn enough money."


    Zhang Xiu talks, and Guo Jia frowns slightly as soon as he says this.


    These words have already expressed Zhang Xiu''s attitude.


    There will be no slave trade.


    It''s like denying Guo Jia''s suggestion, but Guo Jia looks as usual. As Zhang Xiu''s newly appointed head of the general staff, he doesn''t think that if Zhang Xiu negates his opinions, he has a mentality that is hard to bear.


    Xun Jian''s eyebrows rise, but he has a bad feeling in his heart. He thinks that Zhang Xiu''s adoption of his suggestion is very small. Is it because Zhang Xiu wants to kill all Japanese soldiers.


    Killing all the surrendered Japanese soldiers is more terrifying than trying to sell them.


    Slave trade, good or bad people are still alive.


    But after a killing, everyone died.


    However, Xun Jian was sitting quietly, his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her to explain.


    Zhang Xiu hurled a voice: "in this battle, our Qin flying bear army suffered countless losses, so it was almost completely destroyed. The Japanese army, as far as the officers and men of the Qin Dynasty are concerned, is the enemy. "


    "What''s more, originally the Japanese state had been pacified, but the appearance of Tokugawa Jiakang upset the situation."


    "It has increased our casualties."


    "The sudden appearance of Tokugawa and Japanese soldiers, though accidental. But in the view of people in other places, if we don''t deal with it thoroughly now, many places may follow suit. "


    "So it must be severely punished!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp. She threw a voice on the ground: "in this war, all the prisoners, including Tokugawa Jiakang and other Japanese generals, were killed. All the Japanese prisoners who were executed were outside the city of Tottori County, leading to the port to build Jingguan. "


    The view of Zhujing is built with numerous bones.


    In general, after the end of the war, the way of Zhujing temple was rarely adopted. However, Zhujing temple is a real demonstration. It''s really about showing merits, so as to achieve the function of killing chickens and frightening monkeys and sacrificing.


    Of course, it''s pretty bloody.


    Everyone was surprised to hear that Zhang Xiu not only wanted to kill people, but also wanted to build a Beijing temple.


    However, no one refuted.


    Because just now, Zhang Xiu has refuted Guo Jia''s point of view. In normal times, Zhang Xiu would take Guo Jia''s advice, but this war and the Japanese war have certain particularity, so we must kill the chickens and frighten the monkeys. It was not only the power to frighten the Japanese, but also the other small countries around Daqin.


    "Your majesty


    Gan Ning is the first to speak.


    His face was full of joy, because in Ganning''s view, zhujingguan was the best choice.


    The rest of the people also began to praise.


    After Zhang Xiu made a plan to deal with the Japanese soldiers, she waved her hand to let them go down to deal with the matter. After all, it is not easy to kill all the Japanese soldiers next.


    In order to build Jingguan, Zhang Xiu took a full month or so in Tottori county.


    Tokugawa, Miyamoto Musashi and the rest of the Japanese generals, as well as the rest of the soldiers, were all killed. All the people were killed and used to build Jingguan.


    The news spread, the entire territory of the wo state, a shock.Originally, many Japanese people thought that Tokugawa was a Japanese, so it was nothing for them to belong to Tokugawa. But now, with the death of Tokugawa, all the people who used to live in Wozhou are shocked.


    In fact, the original people of Wozhou were not very civilized and were in a relatively primitive state. Originally, the emergence of Tokugawa was to make the rapid development of Wozhou.


    Now, everything has changed.


    However, even if the local people in Wozhou were shocked, these people who were not yet civilized soon forgot Tokugawa. The reason is very simple. Zhang Xiu promulgated a series of policies in Wuzhou, which is conducive to the livelihood of the people in Wuzhou.


    In this way, the people immediately changed the wind and all began to support Zhang Xiu.


    They are all on the side of Daqin.


    The most important thing is that Zhang Xiu began to rule the whole Wozhou in the name of Daqin, and let people publicize and implement Daqin. What''s more, she turned all the people of Wozhou into the people of Daqin, and there was no such thing as the people of Wozhou.


    It''s getting colder in December.


    At this time, Zhang Xiu didn''t go north for the time being. Because it was cold and the ground was frozen, the roads were blocked by heavy snow, and even the sea was not easy to navigate, so Zhang Xiu was stationed in Tottori County for the time being.


    Even so, Zhang Xiu still arranges people to sweep the rest of the state.


    We need to take all the places.


    Time flies. In a twinkling of an eye, spring begins in February next year. At the beginning of February, although it was still chilly, in fact, everything was revived and everything was full of vitality.


    Now, it is possible to start sailing at sea.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is ready to leave.


    However, before leaving, Zhang Xiu had to arrange everything in Wo Zhou. After all, such a big Japanese state needs a capable person to be here, and a talented person to govern it.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, thinking about the way to stabilize the Japanese state.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu was still working in the hall, but he had very little government affairs in his hands. After Zhang Xiu handled all the affairs properly, she arranged for Wang Yue to inform Xun you to come to see her.


    Although Xun you was old, he was very strong. Even in the cold winter of last year, Xun you was not affected. When Xun you entered the hall, he saw Zhang Xiu and solemnly said, "I have met your majesty, my humble minister Xun you!"


    "Sit down!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "Thank you


    After thanking him, Xun you lifted his robe and sat down.


    He did not take the lead in asking, but looked at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her to speak.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "Xun you, when I was in Lelang County, I asked you to surrender. Your answer is to enter the academy and become a teacher to preach and teach. But now, I hope Mr. Xun you can share his worries for the great Qin Dynasty. "


    Xun you frowned.


    For a moment, he didn''t guess Zhang Xiu''s intention. He didn''t know what Zhang Xiu''s intention was.


    Share the worries for the Qin Dynasty?


    What do you want him to do?


    Xun you was a decisive man in his heart. He coughed twice and said, "Your Majesty, I''m old now. Both the body and the energy are not as good as before. You see, how can an old man like me share the worries of the Qin Dynasty? Of course, if I can do it, I will never refuse. "

 Chapter 1165

    Xun you''s face was solemn. He knew in his heart that it was difficult to refuse Zhang Xiu. Therefore, Xun you took the lead in talking about his own situation, saying that he was old, which was a euphemistic refusal to Zhang Xiu.


    Xun you didn''t want to offend Zhang Xiu, so at the end of his speech, he said that as long as he could do it, he would never refuse. In order to ease the atmosphere.


    This is Xun you''s mind.


    Zhang Xiu understood Xun you''s thoughts at a glance and said with a smile, "don''t worry, Xun Gong. This is not a difficult thing for you. It can even be said that it''s a trifle at hand. "


    Xun you didn''t believe Zhang Xiu''s words and said, "Your Majesty, what is it?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Wozhou has been under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, but the governance of Wozhou is a very important thing. As for the candidates who were able to join the state after a few years, they might not be able to join the state. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "therefore, I need Xun Gong to stay in Wuzhou, serve as the governor of Wuzhou, and govern Wuzhou. As long as Xun Gong is the governor of the state, the military and political power of the state is in the charge of Xun Gong, and no one can restrain him. "


    Xun you was surprised to hear that.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu will suddenly put forward such an arrangement, which is to let him take charge of the Japanese state, and also give him military and political power.


    Today, Xunyou understands the Daqin system.


    Under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, the assassins of the States had only the right to govern the local areas, and could not mobilize the army, let alone have relations with the army. However, if he was in charge of Wuzhou, he wanted to do something military and political. This is his trust.


    Xun you''s eyes narrowed and said, "Your Majesty, let us have a good command of the military and government. Aren''t you afraid that there will be trouble in Wuzhou?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I have no doubt about the use of people. Since I choose to believe in you, I will not hinder you. What''s more, the Japanese state has just been attached to Japan, and it needs to be grasped by the military and the government. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu raised her lips and said confidently: "in fact, although Xun Gong was in Wuzhou, his family were all in Yingchuan county. If there is any change in Xun Gong, it is tantamount to putting Xun family into a desperate situation. Will Xun Gong Hui do it? Therefore, I believe in Xun Gong. It''s not only the ability but also the conduct of Xun Gong. "


    After hearing this, Xun you knew that Zhang Xiu had arranged for him to be the governor of Wuzhou, which was very mature.


    All aspects have been taken into consideration.


    But Xun you didn''t want to.


    He is not willing to become an official now. He just wants to go to Chang''an academy, teach quietly and write well. That''s enough. After all, I''m old, and I''m used to wind and waves, so I don''t want to be an official again.


    Xun you couldn''t refuse directly. He thought about it in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, when it comes to the official position of the governor of Wuzhou, it''s not simple. It''s related to whether Wuzhou can be integrated into the territory of the Qin Dynasty. In particular, the Japanese state is located on the sea, surrounded by the sea, it is not easy to develop. Therefore, the people who govern Wo state should be the ones who are young and strong, capable and skillful. "


    "On the contrary, I am an old man."


    "People who are nearly 60 years old are dazed and lack of energy, and it is difficult to concentrate."


    "It''s hard for Weichen to govern Wuzhou!"


    Xun you continued: "Wuzhou is a crucial state. Once the affairs of Wuzhou are handled well, it will be of great benefit to the Qin Dynasty. But if we can''t deal with the affairs of the Japanese state well, it will also have a great impact on the Japanese state. Therefore, I urge your majesty to think twice and choose another virtuous person to serve as the governor of Wuzhou. "


    Zhang Xiu heard Xun you''s words and looked as usual. She didn''t feel strange.


    This is normal.


    Originally, Xun you did not want to be an official, so he was willing to work in Chang''an Academy. Now, Xunyou is not willing to let him stay in Wuzhou as an assassin.


    Fortunately, Zhang Xiu came prepared.


    Zhang Xiu early, heart already persuade Xun you abdominal draft.


    He shook his sleeve robe, stood up and said: "Xun Gong is a wise man. You should know that you can''t hide me from such a refusal. Because at the age of 60, although the physical strength is declining and the energy is poor, the experience is the most abundant. "


    "I can rest assured that Xun Gong will govern Wuzhou."


    "Xun Gong, this great Han Dynasty has never been abroad for hundreds of years. Even if you go to the western regions, you don''t have a stronghold overseas. "


    "Today, the Japanese state is the first."


    "If we manage Wozhou well and integrate it into the great Qin Dynasty, then it must be a great book in the later history books, and it must be able to keep its name in the history of the Qing Dynasty."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "for Daqin, it is good for the peace of the country and the people to govern Wuzhou well. For you, Xun you, it is to leave your name in history. For the Xunzi family, the Xunzi family is also proud. When it comes to Wuzhou, thousands of people in the Qin Dynasty will think that this is the governance of Xunyou of the Xunzi family. "


    "Xun Gong''s indifference to fame and wealth is admirable."


    "But Mr. Xun, don''t you want to offer more for the family?"


    "You know, the Xunzi family also needs a pillar."Zhang Xiu''s words, did not mention any polite words, did not mention any entreaties and so on, are completely real interests, with the influence of interests.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    It will be very difficult for him to persuade Xun you, but Xun you is a member of the Xun family and cares about the Xun family. Therefore, only by using the interests of the Xun family and Xun you''s own interests can he influence Xun you''s decision.


    Xun you was silent at the moment.


    He did not immediately retort.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s words touched Xun you''s heart. Originally, after Hsun you surrendered to the great Qin Dynasty, even though he went south to Wuzhou with Zhang Xiu, in fact, he planned to teach in Chang''an academy when he returned to Chang''an.


    Now, Xunyou is excited.


    Not for himself, but for the Xun family.


    This is Xun you''s starting point.


    Of course, Xunyou also knew that to manage Wuzhou well was a feat of opening up territory. Such a great achievement, even Xun you, was also excited and expected.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Xun you''s manner. Seeing that Xun you''s manner is moving, she is determined.


    Xun you''s idea is moving.


    So, this is it.


    Zhang Xiu finally said, "Duke Xun, there is no real family in the world today. Once upon a time, when there was no rice paper or printing technology, it was difficult for people to read, and there were few readers. So the children of the aristocratic family can be officials. But now, the cost of reading is low. There are more and more people studying, and there are more and more children from poor families. "


    "In particular, the existence of scientific research, but also a wide range of poor talent."


    "If the Xunzi family is complacent and there is no leader in it, then in the end, the Xunzi family must be devoid of people, and it is impossible to become a big family in the world again."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s the so-called sailing against the current. If you don''t advance, you will retreat. If there is no talent in today''s world, it will be eliminated in the end. Because without resources and advantages, we have to be suppressed and weakened. "


    "I agree!"


    Xun you clenched his teeth and opened his mouth.


    He knows that Zhang Xiu''s words are true, because today''s world is no longer a time to monopolize reading resources. Nowadays, there are too many opportunities in the Qin Dynasty, but they are also quite cruel.


    The power of the aristocratic family can no longer be as strong as before.


    If you do not advance, you will retreat.


    Hearing Xun you''s words, Zhang Xiu smiles and praises: "I knew that Xun Gong would agree. Xun Gong was in charge of Wuzhou. It is expected that in a few years, Wuzhou will surely be under great rule. "


    Xun you said, "I will do my best to live up to your Majesty''s high expectations."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I believe you."

 Chapter 1166

    The governor of Wuzhou decided that Zhang Xiu did not leave immediately, but stayed in Wuzhou for half a month. This was to give Xunyou time to take charge of Wuzhou and facilitate Xunyou''s smooth administration.


    As a matter of fact, for Xun you, governing a state of Wo was like killing a chicken with a bull''s knife. Especially when Zhang Xiu was in charge, Xun you''s administration was more relaxed and easy to carry out.


    In particular, the Japanese state is barren.


    The people are not civilized.


    Under this premise, Xun you''s governance of Wuzhou seemed to be very difficult, but in fact it was not very difficult.


    When Xunyou was busy, time went by in a hurry. When it was time for Zhang Xiu to leave, Xunyou began to relax. The reason is very simple. After the general direction of the policy is set, the next step is the specific operation, which depends on the local government.


    But Xun you was not satisfied.


    Xunyou specially asked Zhang Xiu to send a letter to Chang''an academy, hoping to transfer some scholars from Chang''an academy to Wuzhou, so as to educate the people of Wuzhou and govern Wuzhou.


    This is the basis of governance.


    Only when there are enough taxis to enrich the local area, can it affect the future development of Wozhou and assimilate the people of Wozhou.


    Before he left, Xun Yu found Xun you.


    Xun Yu''s face was solemn. Looking at Xun you with white temples and full of vicissitudes on his face, he said: "Gongda, this army is about to leave. Even if your majesty leaves some soldiers for you, it''s not easy for you to stay in Wozhou alone. Are you really ready to go to Japan? "


    Xun you said with a smile: "I have already taken over the post of governor of Wuzhou. What else can I say? Don''t worry, uncle. I''m not a three-year-old urchin. I know what I can do and what I should do. "


    Xun Yu said: "I don''t have much to worry about when you become an official. On the contrary, as a Japanese governor, even if it''s a wild place, it''s not civilized. However, to serve here is to open up territory. For you, for the Xun family, it is very helpful. In the future, maybe there will be some senior officials in the Xun family. "


    After a pause, Xun Yu said: "in fact, I know that being an official is good for Xun family, but I have some problems, so I can''t make it. Now, it''s not bad to be an official censor. But you, I hope, can go further. "


    Xun you said: "uncle asked, you bear in mind."


    Xun Yu sighed: "Zhang Xiu is really powerful. Now, if you think about it carefully, Zhang Xiu, relying on her own strength, dominates the world in the shortest time, and all the people in the world will no longer suffer for it. Zhang Xiu, what a great achievement


    Xun you said: "from the point of view of the people, it is true. It cannot be erased."


    After a pause, Xun you said, "it''s a pity that the emperor was born at a wrong time. If it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu, I can conclude that the man who ruled the country must have been the emperor. "


    Xun Yu didn''t express his opinion on this.


    He has always supported Hanshi.


    Even if he works for Cao Cao, he is still in the Han Dynasty, hoping to maintain the Han Dynasty.


    This is Xun Yu''s attitude.


    Seeing this, Xun you immediately understood what Xun Yu was thinking. As soon as the conversation changed, he turned away from the topic and said, "uncle, I am the governor of Wuzhou. In fact, I still have some ideas about Daqin. As a censor, you can bring it up. "


    Xun Yu said, "what''s your opinion?"


    Xun you said in a deep voice: "today''s Daqin, although it''s a little oppressive to the military, even as far as I know, the officials of the major military regions will rotate. But actually, it''s not enough. Now that it is time for the unification of the world, it is time to let Nanshan go. If it is time to collect the right, it is time to collect the right. We can''t continue to delay. My uncle needs to advise his Majesty on this matter. "


    Xun Yu said: "it''s difficult!"


    Xun you said, "why?"


    Xun Yu explained: "Zhang Xiu is a very independent person. It''s hard to persuade her. You see, last time, we expressed our views on the treatment of prisoners. But in the end, Zhang Xiu put forward a different plan. Of course, Zhang Xiu''s plan has its own reasons. In short, Zhang Xiu has the ability and vision. He thinks about problems and is different from us. "


    Xun you said, "no matter what, we should persuade."


    Xun Yu thought about it, then said: "now Zhang Xiu is still in Wuzhou, Gongda, since you have suggestions, why don''t you put forward them yourself?"


    Xun you''s eyes flashed a light, and immediately said: "uncle, this matter is easy to offend people. My uncle is an official, so I hope he can persuade Zhang Xiu. "


    Xun Yu heard something strange.


    It''s not right.


    This is not in line with Xun you''s style. Generally speaking, Xun you will not let him do difficult things.


    However, when Xun Yu saw Xun you''s eager eyes, he finally couldn''t stop Xun you''s request and said, "well, since you put it forward, I''ll help you with your advice."


    "Thank you, uncle!"


    Xun you''s mouth went up and he started to smile.The wrinkled face stretched out. He is now the governor of Wuzhou, but since Xun you intends to work for Zhang Xiu, he hopes that Xun Yu will do the same, instead of hiding himself.


    Xun Yu didn''t stay much, so he got up and left.


    Looking at Xun Yu''s back as he left, Xun you murmured, "uncle, you should be able to feel your Majesty''s courage and his consideration of the whole world. I hope you can open your heart and stop being so clumsy. "


    There was hope in his eyes.


    Because when it comes to governance, Xun Yu''s talent is no less than Xu Shu''s. Even in Xun you''s view, Xun Yu''s administrative ability is definitely stronger than Xu Shu''s, and Xun Yu deserves a bigger platform.


    After Xun Yu left, he went straight to the place where Zhang Xiu was. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed to salute and said, "minister Xun Yu, I''d like to see your majesty."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s rare for Wen Ruo to come to see me in person. Come on, give me a seat


    The soldier immediately offered his seat.


    Xun Xun lifted his robe and sat down, with a solemn appearance.


    Zhang xiudao said, "if Wen comes to see me today, I don''t know. What can I do for you?"


    Xun Yu leaned back slightly and said, "Your Majesty has turned over my ministers. I''m here to see you today. It''s the end of the war in Wuzhou. With the calm of Wuhuan, Liaodong and Lelang are under your control. Today, the great Qin Dynasty has been completely pacified. Therefore, I believe that today, the Qin Dynasty does not need to retain so many troops. It can let Nanshan go and abolish some of its troops. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought about it, but she didn''t think Xun Yu''s words were strange.


    Throughout the dynasties, after the state arrived, it was sure that the generals would eventually be released, either to reduce the military power of the generals, or to dispose of some of the generals to avoid chaos.


    After all, with an army, it''s easy to cause chaos.


    Xun Yu''s suggestion is to the point.


    However, Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "Wenruo, I''m not going to cut off the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, let alone let them go to Nanshan. Because the front of Daqin''s troops will not stop, but will continue to move forward. "


    After hearing this, Xun Yu was quite surprised.


    Today, when the Qin Dynasty unified the world, there was no need to fight in the battlefield. Why did Zhang Xiu say that she had to move on.


    This puzzled Xun Yu.

 Chapter 1167

    Xun Yu took a deep breath, suppressed his surprise and said, "Your Majesty does not want to rein in Manan mountain. So, how are so many troops going to settle down? We need to know the existence of the army, although it once swept the world for Daqin. "


    "In fact, it had a great influence on the stability of the Qin Dynasty."


    "The army is a double-edged sword."


    "Especially in the peaceful and prosperous times, too many troops not only consumed huge amounts of grain and military salaries, but also affected the stability of the local people and the stability of the Qin Dynasty."


    Xun Yu said: "therefore, I think that the unification of the world today is due to the strategy of letting Nanshan go and adopting the strategy of elite troops. We can''t maintain such a large number of troops all the time. I ask your majesty to judge my stupid opinion. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wenruo, I just said that we will not abolish the soldiers. The front of the army of the Qin Dynasty will continue to move forward. It''s not empty talk at one stroke, but because I will fight in the western regions next. "


    "The soldiers of the great Qin Dynasty will reconnect the Silk Road, open up the road to the western regions, and even wipe out the western regions. From the Qin Dynasty to the Western Han Dynasty, the territory has been expanding. But in the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was different. "


    "The territory has not expanded again, nor has its strength been strengthened again."


    "Now, I want to go west again."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said in a deep voice: "today''s Daqin is not the one I am most satisfied with. Daqin, will be more powerful, under the jurisdiction of the place, will be more and more broad. I hope that Daqin will be the place where the sun rises and the place where the sun sets. It will be the territory of Daqin. It will really be the kingdom of the whole world. "


    Hiss!


    When Xun Yu heard the speech, he took a cool breath.


    How scary!


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu had such great ambition to surpass the Qin and Han Dynasties. In other words, Zhang Xiu''s ambition, at least, is to surpass the Qin Emperor Hanwu, to expand the strength of the Qin Dynasty to unprecedented strength.


    At this moment, Xun Yu suddenly thought of Xun you.


    Perhaps Xun you had expected that.


    Xunyou knew Zhang Xiu''s ambition and thought of expansion, so he asked him to advise. At the same time, it is to take this opportunity to let Xun Jian see Zhang Xiu clearly.


    After a long time, Xun Yu regained his peace and said, "Your Majesty, war is money burning. When we think about Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, we have the family background accumulated by the two emperors of Wenjing. However, Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty has fought for years in succession, although he has played the prestige of the Han family and laid the foundation of the Han family for hundreds of years. But in fact, people''s livelihood is withering, and people''s life is extremely difficult. "


    "War comes at a price."


    "It''s not easy."


    "Every war will consume countless money and food, as well as countless lives. Even today''s Daqin has a solid foundation, but it can''t stand much trouble. "


    Xun Yu said: "so it''s better to put out the war and let the horses go to Nanshan."


    This is Xun Yu''s point of view.


    Although he used to be a man of Cao Cao and a minister of Cao Wei, now xunzu has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu. Under such a premise, Xun Yu adhered to the view of seeking political power in his position, hoping that the Qin Dynasty could maintain peace and not fall into war again.


    If we fall into war again, it will do harm to all the people.


    Because it''s the people who are ultimately affected.


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly with a smile on the corner of her mouth and said, "Wenruo, in most cases, wars in the past dynasties consume money and food."


    "But actually, it''s the wrong way."


    "To fight is not simply to fight, but to gain something."


    "That''s what started the war."


    Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, in the first battle against Wuhuan, Daqin not only won the territory of Wuhuan people, but also made a lot of money. For to have a prisoner is to have money. The money and food consumed in this war are more than enough to earn back. "


    "Let''s talk about the war of our country."


    "If it were not for this war, we would not have killed Japanese soldiers. With this group of prisoners, in fact, this war can not only open up territory, but also earn countless money. "


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "in this way, one battle after another will not consume the strength of Daqin. On the contrary, it will increase Daqin''s fighting capacity and make Daqin more powerful."


    Xun Yu was stunned.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are incredible.


    I didn''t expect that the king of Zhang Xiutang had said such a thing, which was really shocking.


    This also impacted Xun Yu''s idea.


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, such behavior is no different from that of a robber. Under such a premise, Daqin is bound to be called the country of tiger and wolf. Even every war is like a bandit, which makes people despise him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Xun Yu, I don''t mind if the great Qin Dynasty is called the country of tiger and wolf. As long as we in the Qin Dynasty are not slaughtered or invaded, and the people live in peace and contentment, and are called the land of tigers and wolves, what is the impact? "When Xun Yu heard this, his pupils shrank.


    It seems that he saw Zhang Xiu for the first time, as if he saw Zhang Xiu again.


    This is because Zhang Xiu is a person who speaks out of interest and does not pay attention to morality and etiquette, and is not subject to secular constraints. What such an emperor does is different from a normal monarch.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in fact, between countries, where there is any friendship, where there is any warmth, only the interests of countries. If the interests are the same, they are bound together. Different interests are like enemies. "


    "So, even if it''s unknown, it doesn''t matter."


    "I don''t care if I''m scolded and robbed."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said: "what I care about is the thousands of people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty. What I can protect is only the thousands of people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty. I can''t and won''t take care of people from other countries. I don''t have so much time to worry about them. "


    Xun Yu''s body trembled when he heard it.


    Zhang Xiu''s words opened Xun''s eyes and seemed to really understand Zhang Xiu. Moreover, Xun Yu listened to Zhang Xiu''s words and thought that Zhang Xiu''s words were reasonable.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wen Ruo, is there any doubt?"


    Xun Yu said, "no more!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xun Yu in front of her and said, "Xun Yu, you are a man of great talent. To be a speech officer is really a talent. I hope you can make progress and contribute your strength to Daqin. Are you willing to submit to me? "


    This time, it is Zhang Xiu''s real solicitation.


    He hoped that Xun Yu would make an appropriate choice and that he would no longer hide his clumsiness.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s attitude.


    Xun Yu and Zhang Xiu''s words have been greatly shocked, and a trace of disdain for Zhang Xiu in his heart has all dissipated. He took a deep breath, folded his hands, bowed and said: "Xun Yu, I''d like to meet your majesty and serve you."


    With a plop, Xun Yu knelt down directly.


    This is a big gift to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu got up and went to Xun Yu. With a bright smile on her face, she reached for Xun Yu and said, "with Wen Ruo, I will not worry about raising food and grass in the rear. Now I''m in charge of your food and money. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Xun Yu''s boxing should be done.


    He is a person with strong adaptability, and he is also resolute in his work. Therefore, after taking on his task, Xun Jian began to deal with government affairs and entered into a state and role.

 Chapter 1168

    In March, the weather is getting warmer.


    Everything is on the right track.


    Xunyou was in Wuzhou, but Zhang Xiu didn''t worry about Wuzhou. Instead, she looked forward to the development of Wuzhou. Zhang Xiu believed that under the governance of Xun you, Wuzhou would be better than ever and could develop rapidly.


    In Japan, resources are relatively scarce.


    However, there are also many minerals.


    Moreover, in this era, Wozhou has the advantage of being close to the sea, the climate is also good, and it can develop its economy rapidly. During this period, under the governance of Xun you, everything flourished.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu is ready to leave.


    It''s sunny on March 6.


    Zhang Xiu leaves for the direction of the entrance to the sea in Tottori county. However, although Zhang Xiu left with his troops, he left 3000 elite soldiers in Wuzhou for Xun you to dispatch.


    There are 3000 elite soldiers in the town. Xun you is safe.


    There won''t be a problem in Oklahoma.


    After the army led by Zhang Xiu arrived at the entrance to the sea, all of them landed on the warships and began to set sail back. Spring weather in March, the sea a blue, rippling, refreshing. The golden sun, shining on the sea, makes the sea shining and makes people intoxicated with its beautiful scenery.


    However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, if you stare at it for a long time, it will become ordinary.


    After a period of time, Zhang Xiu lost interest.


    It''s the same with everyone.


    They took a boat to the north. They didn''t encounter any wind and waves on the way, so they went back to the entrance of Lelang county. After landing at the port, the army stationed on the shore.


    Zhang Xiu went north to Lelang county. After a short rest, the army continued to set out. However, at the same time, Zhang Xiu also arranged sentry to send the war situation back to Wuzhou as soon as possible to let the people in the court know the situation.


    Chang''an City, in the imperial city.


    With the assistance of Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Li Ru and others, everything went smoothly. However, during this period of time, the border to the west of Daqin was in turmoil, such as Jiuquan in Liangzhou and Zhangye.


    But it''s just turbulence.


    Therefore, the imperial court only sent orders to Gaolan and pound in Liangzhou to make them pay attention to the situation.


    In the Imperial City, Xuanshi hall.


    Zhang Cheng is here to handle the government affairs presented. Below, there are also cabinet members such as Xu Shu and Li Ru, so that Zhang Cheng can inquire at any time and know the situation.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.


    A valet enters.


    His face was full of joy. When he entered the hall and stood still, he said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty has returned in triumph. Your Majesty''s army has returned triumphantly. Now, I have landed in Lelang County, Liaodong, and I am on my way back to the city. "


    "Good!"


    When Zhang Cheng heard this, he clapped his hands and cheered.


    The return of victory means that the war is extremely smooth.


    Just at this time, another official from the imperial court came to Xu Shu and handed him a war report.


    After receiving it, Xu Shu opened the letter and read it again. His face was also full of smiles. He congratulated: "Your Highness, the imperial court has also received the war report sent back from the front line. Your majesty has stabilized the situation by killing all the Japanese who have made trouble in Japan. Today, the state of Japan officially changed its name to the state of Japan. The first governor of Wuzhou was Xun you. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Cheng couldn''t help cheering again.


    Great!


    The pacification of Wozhou meant the opening of the territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    In particular, today''s Daqin has started from Liangzhou in the west, ended in Japan in the East, and directly entered the northern grassland in the north. The South has already reached Jiaozhou. Such a territory is already vast.


    The territory of the Qin Dynasty is stronger than ever.


    It has surpassed the Qin and Han Dynasties.


    "Congratulations, your highness."


    Xu Shu was the first to speak.


    The rest of them began to express their congratulations.


    For the people of Wuzhou, the return of Wuzhou is a great event.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, another attendant came in.


    The servant''s face was full of tension. As soon as he came to the center of the hall, he said: "Your Highness, Liangzhou 800 Li urgent news. The messenger has arrived outside the imperial city. "


    When they heard the words, their faces suddenly became serious.


    The situation in Liangzhou is known to all of you, so when you hear about the eight hundred Li emergency in Liangzhou, you are all nervous and worried about what will happen in Liangzhou.


    Zhang Cheng said, "let people in!"


    "Here it is


    The valet rushed to inform.


    It''s not long. The messenger''s in.


    The sentry''s cheek was rough, his lips were almost dry, and he was very tired. He came from Liangzhou in a hurry and had no rest on the way. So now, the sentinel is very haggard.


    Zhang Chengchen said in a voice: "what happened in Liangzhou?"Sentry: "return to your highness, Liangzhou now lost Jiuquan, Zhangye two counties. In the western regions, the Hu people invaded, and they had a weapon similar to our gunpowder, but it was much more powerful. It was easy to break the city and defeat our army. Now, Gaolan has been a comprehensive defense, retreated to the direction of Weiwu County, Liangzhou, to guard


    Brush!


    Everyone''s face changed greatly when they heard the words.


    Just now, all the princes in the court were excited by the news of Zhang Xiu''s triumphant return to Japan. But now, the situation is greatly changed, because Liangzhou had a problem, and it lost two counties in succession.


    Even the weapons of the Hu people in the western regions are more powerful.


    You know, firearms are Daqin''s trump card, and Daqin''s most powerful weapon. But now, the other side''s weapons are more powerful, which makes people worried.


    "Do you have any details?" Zhang said


    "Not for the time being!"


    The sentry shook his head and replied, "the humble duty is the first person to withdraw the message. The specific situation of the enemy and the specific situation of the relevant war will be sent back after me, about two hours later."


    Zhang Cheng nodded and waved his hand to let the sentry down.


    After the sentry retreated, Zhang Cheng said solemnly: "Liangzhou has changed. How should we deal with it now?"


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said: "in response to your highness, I believe that the only way to deal with the current situation is to send troops to resist and try to calm down the chaos. Even if it is impossible to stabilize the situation, it is necessary to delay the situation and wait for your majesty to lead his troops back. As long as your Majesty''s army withdraws, we will consider the counter offensive. "


    Zhang Chengxin thought about it and said, "Mr. Jia, where do you think it is most appropriate to dispatch troops to calm down the chaos under the current situation?"


    Jia Xu said: "to report back to your highness, the best way is to dispatch Yizhou army. Zhang Ren led the army to rush for help, so as to temporarily alleviate the crisis of Liangzhou. In addition, some of the troops stationed in Chang''an can also be dispatched. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Cheng thought about it in his heart.


    When it comes to the deployment of Chang''an garrison, it needs careful consideration.

 Chapter 1169

    Zhang Chengsi made a decision soon after he asked for it. He said, "what Jia Gong said is very true. For the sake of today''s plan, we must dispatch Yizhou army. In addition, 30% of the Chang''an garrison went west to Liangzhou. "


    "Your Highness is wise!"


    When Jia Xu heard this, he was also relieved.


    Now the situation is extremely unfavorable for Daqin. At present, we can only dispatch Yizhou military region and the troops stationed in Chang''an to rush to help and stabilize the situation for the time being.


    Others also agreed with Zhang Cheng''s decision.


    After a lot of deliberation, they discussed many details, and ordered the troops to take action in the name of the imperial court. When the imperial court made a response, on the other side, the army led by Zhang Xiu also made a quick return.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu entered Hanoi Prefecture, they received news from the imperial court about Liangzhou in the western regions. Zhang Xiu was shocked when she saw the news.


    The reason why he was shocked was not the invasion of the Hu people in the western regions, or the capture of Jiuquan and Zhangye by the troops of the Kushan Empire, but the fact that the other side had guns.


    Zhang Xiu knows both artillery and firearm, but even Zhang Xiu knows it, because of today''s steel-making technology, as well as today''s overall technology, it is difficult to make parts such as gun bore and barrel.


    Therefore, Daqin had gunpowder, but no artillery.


    But they had guns.


    You know, the real artillery is in the Ming Dynasty, which makes the artillery status respected, is the key weapon. However, it will be more than 1000 years later.


    Nowadays, there are no guns in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms.


    The Kushan Empire, however, had artillery.


    It''s shocking.


    It''s even more puzzling.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind, suddenly thought of the Japanese Tokugawa Jiakang. His eyes narrowed and he was thinking. Previously, there was Tokugawa Jiakang''s crossing. Now, the countries in the western regions are unified ahead of time, and even have artillery. This means that Tokugawa Jiakang may have happened in the Kushan empire of the western regions.


    Someone must have crossed.


    Otherwise, the western regions would not have artillery.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart is also worried about the situation in Liangzhou. With the help of artillery, Gao Lan and pound could not resist. Because of the existence of artillery, the fortified city is not a fortified city. It is not easy to resist the artillery bombing.


    Just as Zhang Xiu had gunpowder, he could easily break Liucheng and destroy Wuhuan.


    That''s the same thing.


    When Zhang Xiu told Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Pang Tong and others about the situation, she stopped delaying and ordered them to go at full speed. Under the full speed of the army, it didn''t take too much time. In less than three days, Zhang Xiu had led her troops back to Chang''an.


    It was near the end of April.


    The weather is getting warmer.


    The sunny weather is very suitable for outing. But now, Zhang Xiu has no idea. The bright mood of returning home from Wozhou was also dispelled by the haze of Liangzhou.


    The troops were stationed, while Zhang Xiu went straight into the palace.


    First, he met with Zhang Cheng and listened to Zhang Cheng''s report on the recent operation of government affairs. After a general understanding, Zhang Xiu called in cabinet members and inquired about Liangzhou. She learned that Zhang Ren had been transferred to Liangzhou according to Jia Xu''s arrangement, and a part of Chang''an''s garrison had been transferred to Liangzhou. Zhang Xiu was also relieved.


    Especially the latest, no news has been sent back.


    No news is good news.


    Once bad news comes back, it will be extremely dangerous for Daqin.


    Without much delay, Zhang Xiu immediately mobilized the remaining troops of the Chang''an military region stationed in Chang''an, and Zhao Yun went to war with Zhang Xiu. In addition, the fierce tiger army led by Gan Ning also followed Zhang Xiu to fight.


    Huang Zhong was stationed in Chang''an. On the one hand, he was stationed in Chang''an. On the other hand, he recruited soldiers to restore the fighting capacity of the flying bear army.


    When Zhang Xiu left, she still took Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others with her. In addition, the generals of the army such as shamoke and Lu Bu were also there. They were on their way to Liangzhou.


    At the same time, the royal guards are also quick to get information.


    When Zhang Xiu arrived at the Liangzhou border and Jixian County, he temporarily settled down in Jixian County.


    Jixian county is the center of Liangzhou.


    The political center of Liangzhou was here, and Yang Xiu, as the governor of Liangzhou, was also in Jixian County. The first thing after Zhang Xiu arrived was to call Yang Xiu and ask about the current situation in Liangzhou.


    Yang Xiu, with a solemn face, reported: "Your Majesty, the people who attacked Jiuquan and Zhangye this time are the Kushan empire in the West. The strength of this country is extremely strong, and their weapons are also very powerful. "


    "Their troops have been based in Jiuquan and Zhangye."


    "Previously, Gao Lan and pound led their troops to fight against each other. Because of the powerful weapons of the other side and the large number of troops of the other side, the Liangzhou army led by Gao Lan was defeated, so they retreated to Weiwu county."


    Yang Xiuse said: "now Zhang Ren and a part of Chang''an army have entered. After the new forces of the two armies have gathered together, Gaolan has a foothold in guzang County of Weiwu county to resist the advance of the Kushan empire."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "is there no news of winning?""No!"


    Yang Xiu looked ashamed.


    As the governor of Liangzhou, he governed the local areas. It is reasonable to say that under his administration, Liangzhou had good political and human relations, and everything developed very well, even compared with some states in the Central Plains, it was no inferior.


    But now, it''s in vain.


    Everything, it''s all gone.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, the heart is not happy. In the face of the Kushan empire''s attack, even if the enemy is fierce, even if there are a large number of enemies, they have no strength to fight back and no posture to fight back.


    This kind of guard, let Zhang Xiu not like.


    Zhang Xiu just lingered in the assassin''s residence for a little while, and then ordered her to leave for Weiwu county.


    Now, we have to arrive early.


    When Zhang Xiu is here, everyone has the backbone.


    All the way, Zhang Xiu''s army didn''t stop and rushed all the way. At the beginning of May, he arrived in guzang County of Weiwu county and joined the army led by Zhang Ren and Gao Lan.


    All troops, enter the city.


    When the army settled down, Zhang Xiu immediately called together Gao Lan, pound, Zhang Ren and others to discuss the counter attack strategy.


    For Zhang Xiu, Daqin would never admit advice.


    If the Kushan Empire dares to kill her, Zhang Xiu wants to kill her back.


    Tooth for tooth, blood for blood.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Gao Lan and said: "Gao Lan, talk about the army situation of Kushan empire. And the general of the Kushan empire. "


    "Here it is


    Gao Lan answered and said slowly, "please tell your majesty that the troops of Kushan empire are stationed in Zhangye County for the time being. The number of its troops is as many as 100000. The commander-in-chief of the other side''s army, named dijean, was very cunning, and his use of troops was as quiet as a virgin. He was extremely cautious when it was time to calm down. When it''s time to attack, he''s as fierce as a snake. This man is very difficult to deal with. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "what do you think of the other side''s new guns?"


    Artillery, that''s the key.


    It is also the focus of this war.

 Chapter 1170

    Referring to the artillery, Gao Lan''s face became very dignified. He said with a straight face: "tell your majesty, the artillery of the Kushan empire is very powerful. According to the situation that we have fought with the Kushan Empire several times, the artillery of the other side can hit the target hundreds of steps away. And the power of artillery is huge, far more than our gunpowder. "


    After a pause, Gao Lan said: "with guns, our city has lost its function. No matter how strong the city is, it can''t resist the attack of artillery. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the artillery is really powerful, but it is not without defects. To deal with artillery, we must fight outside the city and occupy a favorable strategic commanding point. In this way, the army can use the trench to hide and reduce the casualties of soldiers. At the same time, it can also resist the enemy''s attack with the help of trenches. "


    Gao Lan gave a thumbs up and praised: "Your Majesty Shengming, at the beginning, we didn''t know the situation of the cannons, so we were beaten in every battle, and the loss was huge."


    "Gradually, we also found the problem of artillery."


    "So now we have a lot of troops in the direction of Mount Baimang on the border of Weiwu county. And all the soldiers on Mount Baimang dug trenches, and the soldiers hid in them to avoid the falling artillery. "


    "If the enemy is close, on the one hand, he can take advantage of the height of the mountain to shoot with bows and arrows. On the other hand, they can also fight back from a commanding position. "


    Gao Lan zhengse said: "only in this way can we stabilize the situation, so that the army of Kushan Empire, even after seizing Zhangye, temporarily stopped at the border of Weiwu."


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu smiles when she hears it.


    Artillery is indeed a new weapon, a weapon of mass destruction. But in fact, as long as we deal with it properly, even if the artillery of Kushan empire is powerful, it is not unstoppable.


    It''s not a problem.


    Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty is leading the army to arrive. With the army of the imperial court, our shortcomings in military strength will disappear completely. Next, we can fight the Kushan empire. Your majesty, we have worked out a plan to defeat the Kushan empire. We can send troops at any time. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the plan?"


    Gao Lan took out the map, hung it up, pointed to the direction of Zhangye County, and said: "according to the information we have found, although the army of the Kushan empire was stationed at the border of Zhangye and Weiwu, in fact, the grain and grass of the Kushan empire was in Dichi County of Zhangye county."


    "That''s what we got."


    "If you send a surprise army to Dichi County quietly, you can quickly take down Dichi and swallow the other party''s food."


    "In this way, the Kushan empire will be defeated."


    Gao Lan zhengse said, "this is the strategy formulated by our Liangzhou military region early. Please allow it."


    Although Gao Lan has always been a garrison and never fought back, Gao Lan and pound have made plans to fight back and are always ready to fight back.


    The location of the granary of the Kushan empire was inquired about before.


    So Gaolan made a plan.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t immediately retort and thought about it. She asked, "all the grain of the Kushan empire is stored in the county seat of Dichi. Is this news confidential or open to the public?"


    Gao Lan said: "this news has never been made public, but it has never been kept secret. As long as you want to make inquiries, you can make them out. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, can we think that this grain and grass hoarding site of Kushan empire is a flaw revealed by the other party intentionally, which is specially for us to know, so that we can take the initiative to attack. In the end, they fall into each other''s trap. "


    Gao Lan was startled and said, "Your Majesty means that the Kushan Empire has laid an ambush in Dichi county."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it may not be that the ambush was laid early, but the Kushan Empire would make arrangements to ensure the safety of Dichi county because of grain hoarding. If we attack Dichi normally, we may fall into ambush. "


    Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright. I really didn''t think about it. Because according to the situation of our confrontation with the Kushan Empire, the troops of the Kushan Empire gathered at the border of Zhangye and Weiwu. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "on the battlefield, since it is fighting, we must consider all possibilities. Therefore, in this war, I think Dichi county is likely to have the army of Kushan empire. Of course, I also think that we can make the best of our plan. "


    Gao Lan Lian said hastily, "Your Majesty, how do you plan?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "take Dichi County as a stronghold and implement the strategy of encircling and supporting. In addition, it is also necessary to annihilate the garrison troops in Dichi county and destroy the other party''s grain. In this way, we have a dual policy nature. "


    When Gao Lan heard this, he said, "Your Majesty is right. In this way, we will leave the baimangshan battlefield and take the initiative to transfer the baimangshan battlefield to our advantage."


    Guo jiace thought that "the three ways should not be in parallel, your majesty."


    Zhang xiudao said: "how can the three strategies go hand in hand?"


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "the so-called three strategies must be carried out. After the implementation of encirclement, the troops of the Kushan empire may begin to withdraw from the front line of Baimang mountain. At that time, the baimangshan army should be allowed to push forward the battlefield quickly and reduce the influence of Kushan empire. Whether it is the battlefield in Baimang mountain or the battlefield in Dichi County, it must be linked. "Pang Tong said with a smile: "what Mr. Guo said is true. We can really push forward the three strategies at the same time. However, the direction of Baimang mountain may not always be tenacious. We can attack appropriately to attract the Kushan imperial garrison outside Baimang mountain. In short, the delay on the front line of Baimang mountain is also conducive to the war in Dichi county. "


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu allowed it directly.


    Now, the three policies are in parallel, which is the most appropriate policy at present.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in the direction of Baimang mountain, I will go in person, accompanied by Pang Tong, Xun Yu, Gao Lan and pound. In the direction of Dichi County, Gan Ning and Zhao Yun led their respective armies. Guo Jia served as the staff officer and was responsible for the operation of the war in Dichi county. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    After the general direction of the strategy has been decided, the next step is to discuss the details in detail.


    After all the negotiations were completed, Zhang Xiu did not delay any longer and ordered everyone to act separately. Ganning, Zhao Yun and Guo Jia, with nearly 80000 troops, walked day and night quietly to the direction of Dichi county. In particular, this direction of travel is to take the path to walk, not along the official road.


    Zhang Xiu, along with Gao Lan, Pang Tong and others, was marching along the official road. However, in half a day, the party had already arrived at the site where the baimangshan army was stationed.


    Today, there are more than 20000 elite troops stationed in Baimang mountain.


    The whole mountain is facing the direction of the camp of the Kushan Empire, that is, the place where the road at the foot of the mountain is located. There are circles of trenches with soldiers specially stationed to prevent the troops of the Kushan empire from seizing mount Baimang.


    Today''s baimangshan is still under the control of the Qin army.


    After Zhang Xiu arrived, she went to the army headquarters at the top of the mountain. With the arrival of Zhang Xiu, he took over the command of the army and began to gather the generals to discuss sending troops.

 Chapter 1171

    "Dong! Dong! "


    Suddenly, the sound of fighting drums came from the foot of Baimang mountain.


    The voice came to the headquarters, which made Zhang Xiu, who had just called the meeting, frown a little.


    Zhang Ren said: "Your Majesty, don''t worry. The Kushan Empire always arranges people to attack or fight. Such a thing is extremely common. "


    Today, Zhang Ren is also on Mount Baimang.


    After all, the cabinet had already made a decision to dispatch Zhang Ren to Liangzhou. It is Zhang Ren''s timely rescue that can stabilize the situation of Mount Baimang. Otherwise, Gao Lan alone will not be able to defend mount Baimang.


    Zhang Xiu got up and said, "let''s go down and have a look. We will discuss the dispatch of troops and postpone it for the time being. After meeting the people of the Kushan Empire, we will consider sending troops. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Each of them got up, followed Zhang Xiu out of the headquarters and went down the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu stops near the foot of the mountain, where there are soldiers of the Qin army. Standing on the inside line of the army, Zhang Xiu looks out and clearly sees the situation of the Kushan Empire opposite.


    At the moment, a general of the Kushan empire was standing not far away. He was wearing armor, and his whole body was covered by armor. The horse on his hip was tall, powerful and strong.


    A man and a horse are powerful and majestic.


    His name is Shaqi.


    He was the general of the Kushan Empire, and also the direct family of dirang, the commander of the Kushan empire.


    Shaqi held a long sword in his hand. The blade of the sword was slightly smaller, but the blade was extremely sharp. He also carried a shield in his left hand, one with a sword and the other with a shield.


    Shaqi stood on his horse and exclaimed: "this general Shaqi, today is another challenge. The timid and timid people of the state of Qin dare to fight against the general. If you dare not fight and retreat earlier, are you going to die here? "


    His words were conveyed through an interpreter.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed. There was a cold light in her eyes.


    The barbarians dare to be presumptuous.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Shaqi is provoking here. Who dares to take off his head for me?"


    Gao LANLIAN said quickly: "tell your majesty, although Shaqi is a military general, he is also very powerful. He is not easy to be compared with. The generals in our army, such as pound, can''t help Shaqi. General Zhao can defeat Shaqi, but it will take at least hundreds of moves, and Shaqi doesn''t love to fight with General Zhao at all, so for a moment, we can''t help Shaqi. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu did not open her mouth to answer Gao Lan''s words. She said again, "who picked Shaqi''s head for me?"


    "I''m willing to go!"


    Lu Bu stepped forward and saluted.


    His face was full of fighting spirit. He was a little Shaqi, not afraid.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go


    "Drive!"


    As soon as Lu Bu patted the horse''s back, the red rabbit horse rushed out like an arrow. Today''s red rabbit horse is a new horse. It''s not the red rabbit horse of Lu Bu, but the name of red rabbit is still used.


    A moment after Lu Bu rushed out, he approached Shaqi. Fang Tian quickly swung the halberd and chopped it down.


    Shaqi disdained to say: "it''s too much."


    Immediately the shield in his hand met him.


    "Dang!"


    The shield collided with the halberd, making a harsh sound. The great power is like a tidal current in an instant. With Lu Bu''s Halberd falling, Shaqi was under great pressure. However, Shaqi is also a master who does not admit defeat. He holds on to his shield and resists the power of Fang Tianhua''s halberd.


    With a low roar, Shaqi''s shield swung away and Fang Tianhua''s halberd, but the sword of his right hand swung up against the wind and slashed like lightning. The slightly narrow blade fell in the air, and it was extremely fast.


    Lu Bu is not impatient, Fang Tian draws halberd to turn in the air, big halberd sweeps.


    It has already been met.


    "Bang!"


    Halberd blade and sword blade impact, harsh sound, ring again.


    Lu Bu frowned. He was not defeated by Shaqi, but through the two fights just now, Lu Bu judged that the power of murderous Qi was slightly inferior to him, but Lu Bu needed hundreds of moves to solve Shaqi.


    It will take quite a while.


    Lu Bu''s mind turned and thought about the solution quickly. At this time, Lu Bu was a dual-purpose man, fighting with Shaqi and thinking about solutions.


    A moment later, Lu Bu had a plan.


    Lu Bu took Fang Tian''s painting halberd quickly, but when he wielded it, his strength was gradually weakened, and he looked like he was going to be exhausted again and again.


    After fighting for more than ten moves, Lu bufangtian drew a halberd and retreated.


    He made an invincible gesture.


    When Shaqi saw that Lv Bu was going to retreat, he was unwilling to let Lv Bu retreat. As soon as he kicked the horse''s belly, he rushed out with a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand.


    "Kill


    In Shaqi''s mouth, he roared again.The horse in his crotch was like an arrow from the string. It was extremely fast, and it was actually fast to shorten the distance between him and Lv Bu. When the distance between the two sides was less than six feet, Shaqi''s sword was slashed obliquely and fell from Lu Bu''s head.


    "Right now!"


    At this time, Lu Bu gave a low roar and held the reins of his horse with his left hand. The horse in the crotch immediately raised its front hooves, and Herod''s neighing of the horse. At this moment, Lubu suddenly twisted his waist.


    Fang Tianhua''s Halberd rises from the ground and cuts it horizontally.


    "Dang!"


    The blade of the halberd collided with the blade of the sword.


    But this time, the strength of Fang Tian''s painting halberd is far more than before. So that Shaqi was caught unprepared, and the blade in his hand was knocked out immediately.


    Fang Tian continued to draw halberd, and the next moment, it fell on Shaqi.


    "Yes


    The sharp halberd fell from the neck from top to bottom, cutting the armor of Shaqi''s body and breaking into his skin. The blade of the halberd went down along the skin and broke Shaqi''s stomach.


    Blood and internal organs spilled all over the ground. Shaqi screamed, and the whole person fell from the horse with his head up. With a bang, he fell to the ground, and the blood on his body overflowed everywhere.


    Whoo! Whoo!


    Lu Bu killed Shaqi with a move and gasped.


    For this move just now, he is also fighting hard. In fact, the shot just now is to fight for strength and luck. If Lu Bu hadn''t taken advantage of Shaqi''s surprise, he would have knocked Shaqi''s sword in one move. Otherwise, it would not be easy to kill Shaqi.


    Especially the others themselves are also consuming a lot.


    After breathing a little, Lu Bu had recovered. He turned to the direction of the Kushan empire. Fang Tianhua''s Halberd pointed to the army camp of the Kushan Empire and exclaimed, "who dares to fight here


    "Who dares to fight?"


    The powerful cry resounded through the air.


    Lu Bu''s power is fully displayed.


    "Who dares to fight?"


    In the rear of the army, many of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty were also shouting. With the cry of who dares to fight one war, one after another, the momentum is vast, converging into a vast torrent, shocking.


    This scene falls in the eyes of maudi, the commander of Kushan empire. His eyes are full of cold and solemn expression. Shaqi, the general under his command, is very good at martial arts. He has never been defeated in several battles.


    Now, it''s being killed.


    It surprised modi.


    However, modi was unwilling to be demoralized. He said in a deep voice, "Salman, go and chop off Lubu''s head for me. If you don''t kill him, you will come to me with your head in your hand. "


    "Yes, sir


    Salman gave his fist.


    This Salman is more than 180 cm tall, weighs nearly 200 Jin, and has bulging muscles. In the early spring, most people are well-dressed, but Salman only wears armor to protect his chest and back, and his two strong arms are naked.


    It''s explosive.


    What he was holding in his hand was a mace. The sharp spines on the tip of the mace were bright and purple. It was frightening.


    Salman drove his horse to the front of the battle, and his eyes fell on Lu Bu.


    A pair of hawk like eyes, through the cold and fierce killing.


    He''s going to kill Lubu.

 Chapter 1172

    "You killed Shaqi. When it comes to relationships, he is half of my disciple. You killed Shaqi. Today, I will kill you and pay for your life. "


    Salman''s cold mouth.


    For Salman, he didn''t care about Shaqi''s life or death. What he cared about was that Shaqi was killed before the battle of the two armies, which damaged the face of the Kushan empire. It is only from the beginning that Shaqi is half of his disciples.


    Lu Bu was dressed in armor, and the new red rabbit and horse in his crotch were still red. Lu Bu straddled on his horse, just like the God of war of fire. He drew halberds across his chest and threw them on the ground. He said in a voice: "you want to kill me, just as I want to kill you. But I, Lu Bu, must have killed you. "


    "Rampant!"


    Salman drinks low, pats the horse''s back, and has swung the mace to rush out.


    The spike covered mace is about three feet long at the top and nearly seven feet long at the bottom. The length of this mace was close to one foot, and it was extremely heavy. It roared in the air.


    It''s late, it''s fast.


    The mace came in front of Lu Bu in a fierce manner.


    When Lu Bu was in a hurry, Fang Tianhua raised his halberd and welcomed it.


    "Dang!"


    The sound was so sharp that the eardrum was in pain.


    On the other hand, Lu Bu and Salman took two steps back, but quickly stabilized their bodies.


    No one will give up.


    No one knows.


    Even if the two men were hit by their own weapons in the past, they could be attacked by each other again.


    When two people fight, they are equal in strength.


    The halberd painted by Fang Tian in Lu Bu''s hand is as skillful as it is clumsy, as light as it is weighty. It''s constantly waving, showing the opportunity of killing. Where Salman''s mace passed, there was a sharp whistling sound, which was frightening.


    The fight between them was fierce.


    After fighting for more than a hundred moves, there is still no division.


    In front of the Kushan Empire, commander modi frowned. Modi''s age is more than 40 years old, almost 50 years old. His temples were already gray, and he was quite old, but his eyes were as sharp as Eagle''s eyes, which made people dare not face them.


    Seeing Salman''s failure to win, modi felt for a jade ring on his left thumb with his right hand, with a thoughtful look on his face. According to the current situation, Salman does not have enough time to win.


    After all, the other side is not weak.


    Modi quickly figured it out and yelled, "akeru, you go up and help Salman."


    Akeru is also a tiger general under modi.


    His figure is not much different from that of Aerman. He uses an Epee with great strength. Akeru''s strength is equal to Salman''s. They are both under modi''s command, and are called modi''s two tigers.


    With his Epee in his hand, akeru rushed out quickly and rushed straight at Lubu.


    Zhang Xiu hand took the overlord gun, quickly rushed out to intercept.


    In fact, shamoko, Zhao Yun and others are all ready to fight. Just, who didn''t expect, Zhang Xiu take the lead in can''t restrain his war spirit, carry a gun to fight. In fact, Zhang Xiu knows about Lv Bu''s strength. The opponent''s ability is superior to Lv Bu''s.


    Zhang Xiu''s pursuit of the wind in her crotch was in front of akeru in the blink of an eye.


    "Those who stand in my way will die. Get out of here!"


    Akeru''s target is Lu Bu, and he wants to join hands with Salman to kill Lu Bu. Now, it was blocked, so akeru was extremely angry. He lifted the Epee in his hand and cut it out.


    "Whew!"


    The blade broke through the air with a sharp whistling sound.


    Its speed is even faster.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are fixed on akelu. When akelu Epee attacks, the overlord''s gun is lifted and the gun is blocked directly. The blade of the sword cuts on the barrel of the overlord''s gun, splashing out sparks and pouring down endless power.


    Zhang Xiu shakes the overlord gun and takes off her strength. When she looks at akelu, she is also surprised.


    First Salman, then akeru.


    The strength of the Kushan Empire led by modi cannot be underestimated.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swung up again. Before aklu wielded his Epee, the tip of the gun turned into a little cold, enveloping aklu and wanted to kill him.


    Akeru calmly waves the Epee to attack, only listening to the constant impact of the epee and the tip of the gun. It''s just that the gun''s point is getting faster and faster, and it''s getting closer and closer to leaving only one shadow after another.


    In terms of power, akrus is not afraid.


    The weapons he used were real epee.


    But the existence of weight also limits the speed of AKRO, which makes AKRO''s speed unable to keep up with the typical top heavy.


    Akeru was even more furious and yelled: "if you have the ability, fight me. What''s in hiding. Kill, I''m going to kill you today. If I don''t kill you, I can''t get rid of my hatred. "He keeps waving Epee, but the problem is that Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is more and more tricky and faster. In the block of akruti''s sword, the point of the gun had bypassed the Epee, and with a puff, it went into akruti''s shoulder.


    One shot down, flesh and blood flying, broken bones.


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate, a gun pulled out, then swung the overlord gun to attack again. As a result, there was no time for him to relax. He could only hold his horse''s belly and lift up his Epee block.


    Two weapons collide, anti shock.


    Zhang Xiu is not affected by the anti earthquake forces, but akeru is different. Akeru''s shoulder was injured. Under the pressure of great power, his blood splashed out like a spring and dyed his clothes red. For a time, blood was pouring, even terrible.


    Zhang Xiu is reasonable and unforgiving, after a move to power, constantly attack. Every time he attacked, it was hard for him to avoid, so that he had to hold up his sword to block.


    Continuous impact fight, akeru arms are numb, shoulder is outflow of countless blood. Akeru himself, because of too much blood, was pale.


    Lost!


    In the heart of akroux, the idea came out.


    He looked even more miserable.


    As one of modi''s two tigers, AKRO is powerful and invincible. Arguably, this is a very complacent thing, but now akelu is abused by Zhang Xiu, and the strength difference is too big.


    "No, I''m not reconciled."


    Akeru clenched his teeth and struggled to lift his sword.


    But akeru''s face was full of pain, because in the current situation, he not only weakened his strength, but also suffered from arm pain.


    However, akeru is still fighting to the death.


    He has to fight to the death.


    "Kill


    Akeru roared, relying on his legs to clamp the horse''s belly, holding the handle of Epee in both hands, and then slashed it with both hands. After he wields a sword, Zhang Xiu also does not hide does not avoid, Overlord gun directly met up.


    "Dang!"


    The crash came out.


    Under the impact of fierce force, although Zhang Xiu retreated two steps, she stopped like lightning and drove her horse forward again. However, akeru himself was struck by lightning. He could not hold the Epee in his hand and was knocked out directly.


    Akeru himself, spilling blood in his mouth.


    The wound is bleeding.


    He is on the verge of life and death, because now he is too seriously injured. Originally, he wanted to help Aerman, but now, akeru himself, it is hard to predict life and death.

 Chapter 1173

    Zhang Xiu rushed forward with her gun. The wind in her crotch was channeling, and her four hooves swung, as if turning into wind. In a twinkling of an eye, she rushed to akelu. The overlord gun is raised, and when akeru is still immersed in pain and unable to respond, it is like lightning.


    "Whew!"


    The point of the gun was broken and the sound was sharp and harsh.


    I saw a flash of light in the air, and with a puff, the sharp point of the gun had penetrated through the heart of akeru.


    "Poof!"


    The bawanggun was drawn out and the blood spattered.


    After two shakes, akeru fell from his horse. Akeru''s burly body fell to the ground, making a dull sound. His body twitched twice, and then he lost his breath.


    After Zhang Xiu killed akelu, she no longer cares about akelu''s life and death. She holds the overlord''s gun in her hand and rushes to Salman instead.


    Now Salman and Lubu are still fighting.


    It''s a tough fight.


    Salman and Lu Bu fight, Zhang Xiu suddenly involved in the battlefield, hit Salman a unprepared. Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun swept, slapped, then hit Salman''s waist rib.


    The force of the blow was so strong that Salman''s ribs broke and screamed with pain. Because of the pain of his body, his strength was weakened and the mace he held was not strong enough.


    Lu Bu''s Halberd fell, Salman was unable to resist, and the mace was knocked out directly.


    "Yes


    The blade of Fang Tian''s painting halberd continued to fall, cutting Salman''s neck.


    The throat was broken and the blood splashed like a spring. Salman''s throat was broken, his eyes were dim, and he lost his center of gravity. He couldn''t straddle on his horse and fell to the ground.


    Lu Bu was relieved at last.


    Finally killed Salman.


    Although it was Zhang Xiu who joined hands to kill Salman, it seemed that he could not win. But this is the battlefield, especially modi first sent people to intervene in the battlefield, Zhang Xiu is later.


    If you want to break the rules, modi is the first. No wonder Zhang Xiu and Lv Bu.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on modi. She took a breath and cried out: "Modi, the army of the Qin Dynasty, is here. You sent someone to fight. Now that both of them have been killed, dare you fight with me? "


    Modi heard Zhang Xiu''s claim.


    I love you!


    This is the title of the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    Thinking of this, modi''s eyes narrowed and his face looked surprised. The man in front of him was Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Combined with the information that modi inquired, he knew that Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, was a strong fighter on the battlefield.


    Zhang Xiu killed akelu in front of her eyes, showing her absolute strength.


    This must be Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not fake.


    Modi put out his hand and rubbed the gray beard under his jaw, saying: "Zhang Xiu, as the king of a country, you are not in the rear of the imperial capital to adjust Yin and Yang, stabilize the situation, but go to war in person. You really don''t deserve to be the king of the Qin Dynasty. You are not a qualified emperor


    Zhang Xiu sneered and retorted: "Modi, whether I am a qualified king of the Qin Dynasty, you don''t need to judge, and it''s not your turn to judge. I''m sure that your two generals died on the battlefield. Now, are you heartbroken? "


    Modi said coldly: "it''s worth using the death of akeru and Salman to find out that Zhang Xiu has arrived at Baimang mountain. Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu, you actually went to Baimang mountain in person. Then, don''t leave. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s my business to stay. I want to go, you can''t stop me. Modi, I''m here. If you have any tiger generals, just send them out. I''ll see how good you are, the warriors of Kushan empire. "


    Modi''s face turned black.


    His two generals, Salman and akeru, are the two strongest men. In addition to Salman and akeru, modi can''t find a general who can compete with Zhang Xiu.


    Modi Lengsu said: "Zhang Xiu, fighting on the battlefield is personal courage, which is not good for the army. Even if you kill akeru and Salman, it has no influence on the overall situation of the battlefield. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Modi said, "what are you laughing at?"


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "I smile is that you Modi, as the commander of the Kushan Empire, commander more than 100000 troops into Liangzhou. Unfortunately, it is so short-sighted. Although personal bravery can''t affect the overall situation on the battlefield, it''s bullshit to say it doesn''t affect at all. Personal fighting, killing the enemy, is enough to show the military prestige, boost morale, so that officers and men of one mind, so that officers and men to fight


    Modi''s face darkened again.


    He did not expect, Zhang Xiu a mouth, so sharp, unexpectedly is directly refute him.


    He was speechless.


    Modi is not reconciled, especially now that Zhang Xiu has come to baimangshan, he must take Zhang Xiu. As long as you take Zhang Xiu, let alone conquer the small Weiwu County, it''s easy to attack Liangzhou.


    With Zhang Xiu in hand, it is not without a chance to further capture Daqin.Modi no longer talks with Zhang Xiu and orders the attack directly. He had already ordered the dispatch of the army. Now modi''s order was issued, and the soldiers, armed with weapons, began to go in the direction of Baimang mountain.


    At the same time, in the rear of modi''s army, there was the sound of firing again. With the booming sound, modi''s army is getting closer and closer to Baimang mountain.


    Zhang Xiu quickly evacuated to the top of Baimang mountain.


    A moment later, shells were fired one by one, and the top of Mount Baimang was covered with smoke and dust. Many soldiers were injured by the artillery explosion. But fortunately, with the trench to resist, the soldiers did not lose much.


    Zhang Xiu evacuated to the top of Baimang mountain, returned to the headquarters, and quietly observed the battlefield. Now, with the continuous fall of artillery, the whole Baimang mountain is burning.


    The shells kept falling, and all the soldiers in the ditch squatted down to hide.


    They''re hiding from the shells.


    After shelling one by one, modi''s soldiers arrived at the foot of the mountain. The soldiers quickly climbed up the hillside and launched an attack. When the soldiers of the Kushan Empire attacked, the artillery had stopped and was no longer firing. After all, the army of Kushan Empire also went up the mountain. If you continue bombing, you will kill your own people.


    The soldiers of the Kushan Empire quickly climbed the mountain. When they got close to the trench, they saw the soldiers in the trench stabbing with long guns.


    In an instant, they killed the Kushan soldiers.


    "Kill


    "Damn it."


    "Brothers, we are the first army and Chang''an army of Daqin. Chang''an junerlang, go


    "Brothers, hold on!"


    ¡­¡­


    Soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, shout out.


    The soldiers cried out in a very strong voice. Rao is so, there are still countless Kushan imperial soldiers, risking the rain of arrows, risking the risk of being stabbed to death by a long gun, quickly climbing up the mountain, intending to defeat the Qin soldiers in the ditch.


    The fight took place in Mount Baimang.


    More and more soldiers of Kushan Empire charged on the mountain, but they kept falling down and being blocked.


    Similarly, the Qin army suffered many casualties.


    The war was so fierce that both sides suffered great losses.


    In the fight, time is passing by. Towards evening, it was getting late and modi''s offensive slowed down slightly. When modi ordered the retreat, Zhang Xiu''s soldiers cheered.


    There were smiles on their faces.


    The first one won.


    They held mount Baimang.


    Zhang Xiu, sitting in the headquarters, looked at Gao Lan, who had always reported the news, and asked, "how many losses and prisoners are there in this war?"


    Gao Lan said: "report to your majesty, this battle is against the army of Kushan Empire, with more than 1200 decapitations and more than 600 captives. Our army has lost no more than 400 people. Especially in this battle, we have won by killing akeru and Salman


    "Not enough, it''s not enough!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    According to the plan, Zhang Xiu is fighting with modi in baimangshan. On the other hand, Ganning, Zhao Yun and Guo Jia went to attack Dichi county. If Zhang Xiu can attract more modi''s troops and attract all the troops of Kushan Empire to the front line of baimangshan, it will also help Ganning and Zhao Yun''s surprise attack.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu feels that the current scale is not enough.

 Chapter 1174

    On the night of early spring, the starry sky on Mt. Baimang is full of stars, talking about the waning moon hanging high, casting down the dim moonlight. The whole mount Baimang is now quiet, and all the soldiers have rested.


    The war during the day is very tiring.


    But even so, the officers and men in the army are sleeping peacefully, resting in the trenches. The reason for this is to prevent being attacked at night, so that the response is not timely. Fortunately, the weather is not as cold as winter. Hide in the ditch, add coat thick, also don''t feel cold.


    The top of Mount Baimang, headquarters.


    Zhang Xiu still has no rest.


    In front of Zhang Xiu, there is still a map, a map near Baimang mountain.


    Only when there is a map can Zhang Xiu judge the battlefield situation.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside the headquarters. Immediately after that, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted, but Wang Yue entered in a hurry. He went to Zhang Xiu''s side, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the sentinel sent back the news. As for the Kushan Empire, modi has already sent troops. This time, modi is pouring out. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it seems that modi is going to fight at night! The camp of tamodi is quite far away from us, eight or nine miles away. In a short time, they will not be able to reach Mt. Baimang. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, how can we deal with it?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s tooth for tooth and blood for blood. Since it''s here, how can we not entertain it."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu arranges for people to call Zhang Ren, Gao Lan, pound, Xun Yu and Pang Tong. In the camp, Zhang Xiu quickly tells the news of modi''s killing, and finally says: "now modi''s killing is coming, ready to fight at night. In this way, I am also ready to respond to modi and fight a encounter with modi. "


    Xun Yu said, "Your Majesty, you have made a decision. How are you going to fight it?"


    Everyone''s eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.


    Waiting for Zhang Xiu to explain the plan.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the war with modi is planned in three steps."


    "The first step is to dispatch soldiers from Yizhou army and flying eagle battalion of Liangzhou military region to immediately carry 1000 soldiers from the air to modi''s army camp and set fire to the night."


    "Modi''s barracks are all over the vast area. It''s very easy to find them under the burning torch. So it''s not difficult for the flying eagle camp to find the target. In addition, it is not difficult for modi''s army to leave the camp, burn the camp and attack modi''s rear. "


    "Zhang Ren, you can arrange this."


    Zhang Xiu gave a plan for the first step.


    In this step, we need to use the soldiers of flying eagle camp. Today''s Flying Eagle battalions are not limited to the soldiers of the flying eagle battalions alone. In all major military areas, flying eagle battalions have been set up to facilitate operations.


    Zhang Ren said: "don''t worry, your majesty. I''ll arrange it immediately."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and continued: "the second step is to dispatch 15000 elite troops from Yizhou military region and Liangzhou military region to garrison on the left and right wings of Baimang mountain, waiting for my order to launch an attack. This time, modi wanted to capture mount Baimang. For me, Mo Shengdi wants to destroy the army


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren and Gao Lan should go down together.


    They are also preparing for the first World War.


    Before that, because Zhang Xiu had not arrived, and because he could not contain the artillery of the Kushan Empire, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren did not fight back. To now, Zhang Xiu decisively ordered to fight back, two people are quite excited.


    No one wants to be beaten passively.


    In particular, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan are both important generals in the army, with their own ideas and pride. These two people are also looking forward to fighting back.


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed and said in a deep voice: "the third step is the war on Baimang mountain. This time modi''s attack must have been to bombard the trenches of Baimang mountain with artillery, weaken our defense, and then order the army to attack. "


    "So at the end of the artillery bombardment, when the army of the Kushan Empire launched an attack, the gunpowder was immediately transported into the trenches and handed over to the soldiers, so that the soldiers could ignite it and throw it into the crowd of the Kushan empire."


    "The other side is a dense attack. Gunpowder explosion will certainly hurt a lot of people."


    Zhang Xiu looked cold and fierce in her eyes, and said: "the bombardment of artillery is indiscriminate bombardment, without accuracy. But our gunpowder is not the same, it can be accurately thrown into the crowd. Such lethality is definitely stronger. "


    At the moment, Zhang Xiu suddenly has an idea in her heart.


    Originally, he didn''t want to throw the gunpowder, but now when he talks about throwing the gunpowder, grenades and even mines suddenly appear in his mind.


    Whether it''s a grenade or a land mine, it''s not complicated.


    It''s relatively easy.


    But now, it can''t be made. Gunpowder is enough.


    When Gao Lan and Zhang Ren heard this, their eyes lit up.


    That''s something they didn''t think about.


    In previous defensive battles, either Gao Lan or Zhang Ren did not use gunpowder even though there was a storage in the army. Because in two people''s view, such defensive warfare does not need gunpowder. Now, Zhang Xiu''s words are just like clouds and fog, and they immediately understand.Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty''s insight, I admire."


    Zhang Ren also said: "Your Majesty''s words made me suddenly enlightened. We''ll deliver the gunpowder after the artillery bombardment. In this way, gunpowder can be used to fight back. "


    The others all agreed with Zhang Xiu''s third step plan.


    This is a wonderful step.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "do you have any objection to modi''s three-step plan?"


    "No!"


    Everyone spoke together.


    Every face was filled with expectation.


    Looking forward to fighting modi.


    I''m looking forward to Morty''s death.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, she asked everyone to step down and do their own business.


    Zhang Xiu sits alone in the army tent, waiting for the arrival of modi''s army. With the passage of time, less than a quarter of an hour, the soldiers of flying eagle camp left first. Within two quarters of an hour, pound and Zhang Ren''s troops had left for ambush.


    Zhang Xiu''s layout, everything has been in place.


    Just wait for modi''s army to kill him.


    As time goes by, the night becomes more and more deep. Originally in mid air, there was a crescent moon and stars. But now, it is dark clouds cover the moon, the stars dissipate, and the night is very deep.


    The mountain is still quiet.


    Like a giant beast lurking here, quietly waiting for the arrival of prey.


    All of a sudden, in the distance to the west of Baimang, there was a fire, which dispelled the darkness. This dense light was the torch of the army led by modi.


    A torch crackled to disperse the darkness.


    After the army led by modi approached Baimang mountain, the army continued to advance, but modi had ordered his artillery to fire.


    "Boom! Boom


    There was a continuous roar.


    One by one, shells skimmed through the air and then fell to the mountain of Baimang mountain.


    "Duck down, all of you


    In the moat on the mountain, there were already generals shouting. All the officers and men squat down and hide to avoid falling shells.


    "Boom!!"


    The shells fell on the mountain, burst, the soil flew, and the mountain vibrated slightly.


    Explosions, more and more.


    The voices are rising one after another.


    The whole mountain of Baimang mountain seems to have turned into a sea of fire. It is full of red light, and sometimes there are screams. After all, it was the shells that fell. Even if the soldiers were hiding in the trench, some shells happened to fall in the trench, so that the soldiers were killed. Fortunately, this situation is rare after all.


    After a long period of bombing, the sound of the shells came to an end, and the whole mountain was covered with mud, as if it had been ploughed.


    At the same time, at the foot of the mountain, the troops of the Kushan Empire had gathered.


    The army approached and attacked.


    "Come on, come on, get the powder up there."


    At the top of Baimang mountain, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren, who were in charge, ordered one after another to mobilize the soldiers under their command. They quickly went down the trench and delivered packets of gunpowder to the soldiers in the trench, so that they could use gunpowder to fight back.

 Chapter 1175

    After listening to Zhang Xiu''s tone, Gao Lan asked, "what does your majesty mean?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "turn defense into attack, take the initiative to attack."


    Gao Lan frowned.


    Today, the troops of Kushan empire are all hoarded outside mount Baimang, and they are powerful, and they have artillery, a weapon of mass destruction. It is not easy to defeat the Kushan empire.


    Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty, I don''t agree to take the initiative. Even now, our forces in baimangshan include the troops of Liangzhou military region and the soldiers of Yizhou military region of General Zhang Ren. However, the other side''s weapons are more powerful. Once war begins, it will be extremely detrimental to us. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the artillery of the Kushan Empire seems powerful, but in fact, it has many limitations. This artillery is powerful, but in fact, it is also a long-distance bombardment. Once the distance is shortened, the artillery will lose its function. "


    "Moreover, the artillery needs to be used on a sunny day. Once it rains, the weather is humid, and the gunpowder is damp, it is difficult to ignite the gun lead, so it is not easy to fire. "


    "So the gun seems powerful, in fact, that''s it."


    "Just as we have gunpowder, it can break the gate. But in fact, except for some cracks, gunpowder is still useless in many places. It''s the same with artillery. It doesn''t make any difference. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so the weapons you fear, in fact, have nothing to fear. What''s more, we are not without special weapons. Our flying eagle camp is not available to the Kushan empire. "


    After listening to it, Gao Lan made a careful balance.


    If the artillery factor is excluded, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are not afraid of the imperial army of Kushan. After all, after Zhang Xiu arrived with a large army, the military front of the Qin army is no less than that of the Kushan empire.


    If Ganning and Zhaoyun who left are taken into account, in fact, the strength of the Qin army is far more than that of the Kushan empire.


    This war can be operated.


    Gao Lan said: "since your majesty has made a decision, I will obey it. However, the soldiers of the Kushan Empire were very strong. It''s a tough fight to fight these people. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "even if it''s a tough battle, we should fight it. No matter how hard the bones are, they can only be captured in front of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. If even the Kushan empire can''t be won, then how can Daqin continue to expand? "


    Gao Lan''s face was silent.


    He heard Zhang Xiu''s voice, Daqin is to continue to expand.


    Gao Lan said, "Your Majesty is right."


    Zhang Xiu said: "go and prepare. Now we are waiting for an opportunity to fight."


    "Here it is


    Gao Lan got the order, so he turned to arrange it.


    Kushan Empire, barracks.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Modiduan sat on the throne with a solemn look on his face and a shadow in his eyes. Today, although Zhang Xiu was found in the battle, his two generals, akeru and Salman, were killed, and maudi was very depressed.


    Below, the crowd will gather.


    In their eyes, there is not much worry, on the contrary, they are full of war. The main generals of the Kushan Empire had strong fighting capacity, and they were veteran soldiers who had been fighting for a long time and were very warlike.


    "Marshal, although we didn''t conquer Mt. Baimang in the daytime, I think we can have a fight tonight."


    A skinny middle-aged man came forward.


    His name was Herma. He was in his early thirties and his eyes were like eagle''s. With sharp eyes, he said again, "the army of Kushan empire can''t be blocked by a mount Baimang. Especially now there is Zhang Xiu''s army in Baimang mountain. As long as we defeat the garrison camp of Daqin, it is possible to capture Zhang Xiu alive. "


    In modi''s heart, he was ready for the first World War.


    He is not the master of fear.


    However, modi didn''t answer immediately. Instead, he said, "Herma, do you know that the army led by Zhang Xiu is in Baimang mountain. It means that the Qin army in baimangshan has not only increased its combat effectiveness, but also increased its number. It''s not easy to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    This is modi''s intention to show weakness and elevate Zhang Xiu to arouse the common hatred of the soldiers.


    Sure enough, Herma got excited.


    Herma said in a high voice: "marshal, even if Salman and akrou were killed, our army of Kushan empire was not afraid. The warriors of Kushan Empire dare to fight, and they will not dare to fight again because of one or two obstructions. "


    Many people agree with this remark.


    The generals of the Kushan empire could no longer help but stand up and speak.


    "Marshal, Herma has a point."


    "Marshal, I agree."


    "Marshal, you have to be shameful and avenge for akeru and Salman. If we don''t get revenge, we will be soldiers of Kushan empire in vain. I, the soldiers of the Kushan Empire, would rather give in than give in, would rather die than retreat, and would never tolerate cowardice. ""We must fight again!"


    The generals spoke.


    All of them were filled with righteous indignation. They wanted to attack mount Baimang immediately. Even at night, the generals of the Kushan Empire were ready for the first World War.


    They are not afraid of difficulties and dangers,


    they are only afraid of becoming weak.


    Modi looked at the smile on the general''s face, but he laughed.


    This is the result he is looking forward to.


    He needs the generals in the army to be able to share a common hatred and fight to the death. Under such a premise, we can ensure the morale of the army.


    Modi didn''t immediately make a statement.


    He looks at the nose and heart with his eyes. He seems to be wandering in the sky and pondering. All the generals knew modi''s nature. They didn''t dare to disturb him. They had to go on fighting.


    After half a sound, modi came back and said, "you all want to fight again. But, you can be clear, now baimangshan is the seat of Zhang Xiu. As the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu''s strength of resistance will be stronger than ever before. Even our attack will be ineffective and it is difficult to play a role. "


    This is another crackdown.


    Modi wanted to stimulate the morale of the soldiers in the army and deliberately suppressed it. Because he knows that the generals under his command are not the ones who admit advice, and they are not the ones who swallow their words. The more he says about Zhang Xiu, the more enthusiastic they are.


    The crowd began to fight again.


    One by one, they can''t wait to stand up, already can''t sit.


    Herma rolled up her sleeve and said in a loud voice: "marshal, I think we should attack mount Baimang. It''s better to attack Mt. Baimang tonight than earlier, so that Zhang Xiu has no chance to buffer. Commander in chief, he is willing to be a pioneer. If the commander-in-chief does not approve of sending troops, he will not be able to get up on his knees today. "


    "Plop!"


    Herma was on her knees.


    His eyes were sharp and aggressive. Even if he knew that kneeling down to fight like this was threatening modi. But in order to take the initiative to attack mount Baimang, in order to be able to fight, Herma is also fighting.


    He doesn''t care about the rest.


    Just for a fight.


    Others have followed suit.


    One by one, they all lifted their robes and knelt down. The crowd knelt down beside Herma. The black scene was magnificent. And people look serious, so that the whole camp seems to be filled with the atmosphere of killing.


    Seeing this, modi nodded with approval.


    Good!


    Good!


    He liked the fighting spirit shown by the people.


    Modi is no longer hesitant, decisively ordered: "Herma listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Modi ordered: "lead your troops to mount Baimang and launch an attack. But before you attack, my commander will let the soldiers of artillery battalion bomb Baimang mountain first to clear the obstacles for you. As for the rest of the generals, they are stationed at the foot of Mount Baimang, ready to attack at my command. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Herma and the rest of the generals, they''re all responding.


    One by one, with a look of joy, the war finally began again.

 Chapter 1176

    Packets of gunpowder were placed in the trench. Although today''s gunpowder needs to be ignited by a torch, Zhang Xiu specially arranged for soldiers to be responsible for igniting and throwing gunpowder in order to avoid mistakes.


    After all, many soldiers in the army only know gunpowder and never use it. If someone shakes his hand or makes a mistake, he or she will be injured by mistake. Therefore, the ignition and throwing of gunpowder are in the charge of special personnel.


    The Kushan army at the foot of the mountain keeps climbing.


    The shortest trench is less than 20 steps away.


    "Light up!"


    In the trench, a small school ordered.


    After the order was given, some soldiers who were in charge of the ignition had already passed the torch and ignited the fuse of the powder. The soldier, who was specially responsible for throwing, gave a low drink and threw out the gunpowder.


    The slope of Baimang mountain is about 50-60 degrees, and the trench is above it. It''s very easy for soldiers to throw gunpowder from top to bottom.


    Gunpowder in the air, the next moment, it fell on the Kushan Empire crowd.


    Boom!!


    After the gunpowder landed, the fuse ignited the gunpowder and exploded.


    In a flash, all the soldiers of the Kushan Empire were injured within one foot of the gunpowder. In particular, the most central soldiers of the Kushan Empire were killed directly.


    A packet of imperial powder fell out of the crowd.


    Boom!!


    Explosions, one after another.


    More and more gunpowder exploded, making waves of soldiers killed. The soldiers of Kushan, who used to rush forward in a fierce manner, are now scared out of courage and cold in heart.


    One by one, I can''t help retreating.


    Herma was also in the crowd. He was almost killed by the explosion. Fortunately, he was far away from the gunpowder of the explosion, but there was some soil splashed on his body and the blood of some soldiers killed by the explosion.


    Rao is so. Herma is scared.


    The Qin army had firearms.


    The Qin army had gunpowder.


    "Go ahead, go ahead!"


    Herma was unwilling to retreat even though she saw the gunpowder explode fiercely, and ordered to launch an attack again. Anyway, he is the chief General in the army. He doesn''t need to rush in the front, he just needs to follow.


    That''s what Herma thought.


    He kept giving orders, forcing his soldiers to attack.


    More and more soldiers launched attacks, but in the end, they were all gunpowder thrown down. They were scared and had no attack. In the end, even though Herma and the rest of the generals ordered the attack, the troops of the Kushan empire could not move forward.


    This scene, fell in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, the corner of his mouth stirred up a smile.


    Gunpowder used in the battlefield, it is not good.


    Unfortunately, there are no grenades and mines. With these two kinds of weapons, even if there are no cannons or heavy weapons, Daqin''s strength will be improved several grades.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and looked at the place where the Shuai flag of Kushan empire was at the foot of the mountain. There was a touch of expectation in her eyes.


    What will modi do?


    In fact, modi is now full of anger. He''s ready for the attack tonight. In particular, the previous artillery bombardment had greatly weakened the combat effectiveness of the Qin army. In modi''s view, in this war, he first had artillery to suppress the morale of the Qin army, and then had a big army to attack. He had no way to win.


    Now, it is forced to retreat.


    It''s really disappointing.


    Especially in the Qin army, there was gunpowder, which was used to counterattack, which surprised modi.


    "Well, even if you have gunpowder, I''m not afraid."


    Modi''s eyes were sharp, and he ordered in a deep voice: "send the order down, and the army will rush for me. Who was the first to kill on the top of Baimang mountain, Ben Shuai promoted him to three levels and gave him guzang County as his fiefdom. In this matter, I am in charge of the monarch. "


    "Tonight, we must take Baimang mountain."


    "If you don''t take Baimang mountain, you will never give up."


    "There are more retreaters, kill them!"


    Modi ordered one after another, he gave a reward, but also gave a death order to beat the soldiers on the front line. After giving an order, modi issued an order of commendation. Whenever he killed the Qin army, he would be rewarded.


    So when modi''s order was delivered to the front line at the foot of the mountain, the whole Kushan empire''s army was excited, whether it was the generals or the soldiers.


    Guzang county is not an ordinary county.


    This is the headquarters of Wimbledon.


    If guzang county can be used as a fief, it will be a lot of money.


    Therefore, all the soldiers in the army will not retreat. In particular, modi has ordered that more evacuees be killed. Therefore, the officers and men of Kushan Empire all rushed forward. Even if there is a sea of fire on the mountain, even if there is a gunpowder explosion, there are still countless people rushing forward one after another.


    "Kill me!""Kill mount Baimang!"


    "Capture Zhang Xiu alive and defeat Daqin."


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded. More and more soldiers of Kushan Empire launched a sprint. On the contrary, they gave the Qin army a chance to use gunpowder.


    Packets of gunpowder fell into the crowd, killing countless people.


    On the side of Kushan Empire, there are countless casualties.


    It was Kushan who rushed forward recklessly, so he broke the moat line at the foot of the mountain and kept pushing up the mountain. When the distance advanced to the mountainside of Baimang mountain, the attack of guishuang soldiers was still fierce.


    In her eyes, Zhang Xiu is not impatient.


    All this was expected.


    He just wanted modi to put in more soldiers, and let modi''s troops gather on Mount Baimang, so as to facilitate his action.


    Zhang Xiu looked down the mountain again. At this time, there were at least 40000 or 50000 soldiers beside modi. With such a force, Zhang Xiu could hardly wipe out modi''s army in one go.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu still did not order to fight back, but still ordered his soldiers to resist with the help of trenches.


    The war continued.


    The cries of killing came one after another.


    The number of dead and wounded soldiers of Kushan empire is still increasing, but they are getting closer to the top of Mount Baimang. Gradually, the distance was shortened to about 30 steps.


    If you push forward another 30 steps, you can climb the mountain and attack Zhang Xiu.


    Gao Lan was a little anxious and said, "Your Majesty, the army of Kushan empire is getting closer and closer to us. Now, it''s time to go to war. If we don''t fight again, I''m afraid the other side will go up the mountain. At that time, it will be difficult to crush the troops of the Kushan empire. "


    Pound also took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, please fight!"


    Zhang Ren is also standing on one side, boxing way: "Your Majesty, please fight!"


    The generals, one after another, asked to fight.


    Up to now, we can start to fight with all our strength, because the beginning of this war is the clarion call of counterattack.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd, no longer hesitated, ordered: "pass the order down, the whole army attack, kill the Kushan army."


    "Attack the whole army!"


    Zhang Ren roared, his long gun standing in the air, excited.


    "Attack the whole army!"


    All the generals were shouting.


    After hearing this, all the soldiers of Yizhou military region and Liangzhou military region came out from the top of Mount Baimang. Soon, they had stepped into the battlefield and fought with the soldiers of Kushan.


    The Qin army is a commanding force, which has already occupied an advantage. In particular, the Qin army, who had just been killed on the mountain, was full of energy and experience. They compete with the soldiers of Kushan who rush to the top of Baimang mountain. They take advantage of their leisure.


    When the two sides went to war, led by Lu Bu, Zhang Ren, Gao Lan, pound and shamoko, the morale of the Qin army was like a rainbow, constantly rolling down, which made the soldiers of the Kushan Empire who had been fighting up again and again fall back.

 Chapter 1177

    Lu Bu, Zhang Ren, Gao Lan, pound and shamoko are all powerful generals in the army. They have strong fighting power and full lethality. Any one of these men is enough to lead the battle and win the first World War.


    Now, it''s all together.


    All the people gathered and their fighting capacity increased dramatically, so under the leadership of a few people, the Qin army kept advancing.


    Herma was leading the charge. He was behind at the beginning, but the two sides were fighting at close range. After the gunpowder was no longer put in, Herma was already leading the charge.


    In his hand is a long sword with a sharp edge. The blade is made of steel and is indestructible.


    Herma rushed to pound with her sword.


    "Take your life!"


    Herma roared. Just as he approached pound, he saw Pound''s hand rise and fall, and the blade fell on Herma''s blade. Under the impact of that force, Herma felt numb in both hands and almost couldn''t hold the hilt in his hand.


    "Hiss!"


    Herma took a cool breath. He didn''t dare to fight any more. He turned around and left.


    But pound, he''s on Herma.


    He''s going to kill Herma.


    So as Herma turned to leave, pound raced up. The sharp blade fell straight to Herma''s back. Its blade was as fast as lightning. It was swift and domineering. It had the potential to break mountains.


    Herma couldn''t avoid it. She quickly turned around and waved her sword.


    When the two weapons collided, a surge of power poured from the sword onto Herma''s blade. Herma couldn''t stop this force. The blade was swung away and continued to fall.


    "Yes


    Sharp blade, cut Herma''s shoulder, a knife down, then put Herma open intestines broken belly.


    With a scream, Herma fell to the ground.


    After pound killed Herma with one knife, he rushed to kill again and kept killing the Kushan soldiers.


    When pound led the soldiers to fight, Lu Bu, Zhang Ren, Gao Lan and others, just like a sharp knife, rushed into the army of the Kushan Empire and pierced the army, making the formation of the Kushan soldiers in chaos.


    The soldiers of the Kushan Empire had already attacked the hillside, but they were suddenly hit back fiercely. They kept retreating like a stick, and there was no previous attack.


    Zhang Xiu is condescending and looks at the retreating soldiers of Kushan. With a smile on her lips, her eyes fall on the direction where modi is. What will modi do if the army of Kushan is defeated and retreats?


    He expects modi to continue his surge.


    Only in this way can we ambush modi and make modi plant in the first battle of Mount Baimang.


    Modi is really in a rage now. He has dispatched a large army to attack him. He is about to reach the top of the mountain. But suddenly, Zhang Xiu''s army attacked him, and his soldiers were defeated.


    Modi was eager to mobilize the army to attack again. This time, modi dispatched nearly 20000 soldiers to join the battlefield of baimangshan. The surging soldiers rushed forward and stepped into the battlefield. This new force contained the previous decline.


    This is the case. The situation has never improved. It is just that there will be no rout.


    Modi''s temperament has always been cautious, very fast, see the opportunity, he will decisively attack. But now, modi thought that he could conquer mount Baimang, but he was blocked and suffered heavy losses.


    Modi''s heart gave birth to the idea of retreat.


    Now that he is defeated, modi doesn''t intend to fight any more. After all, he can''t achieve the goal of destroying Zhang Xiu. Instead of this, it''s better to retreat to Zhangye first, stay temporarily, and then look for the opportunity to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    But when modi hesitated in his heart to order the retreat, suddenly, on the top of Mount Baimang, there was a rumble of war drums, which broke the silence of the night and reverberated in the night sky.


    But Zhang Xiu ordered that Yizhou army and Liangzhou army ambush outside Baimang mountain to fight, killing from the left and right sides outside Baimang mountain.


    "No, Zhang Xiu still has means."


    Modine; heart, is to give birth to a bad premonition.


    "Kill


    The cry of killing started from the left and right sides.


    A torch burns and dispels the darkness. The black army appeared and marched fast. Within a moment, he was close to modi''s position and started a war with the army stationed behind modi.


    "Marshal, it''s not good. Our rear is under attack. "


    A general came quickly to modi.


    The general looked alarmed.


    Because the troops who attacked Mt. Baimang were defeated, they could not succeed. Now the rear has been raided again. The whole Kushan Empire has been surrounded.


    It''s frightening.


    Modi yelled, "what''s the matter? We haven''t lost yet. We still have at least 60000 or 70000 troops. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    The general got the order, nodded quickly, and then said, "marshal, what shall we do?""Order, withdraw!"


    Modi wasn''t indecisive. He ordered it right away. Originally, he hesitated to withdraw because the offensive was blocked. Now, seeing the ambush in the rear, there was no further hesitation, so he immediately ordered the retreat.


    "Dang! Dang


    The sound of gongs resounds through the army.


    After one by one Kushan soldiers heard this, they no longer love to fight and retreated quickly. These Kushan soldiers are also well-trained elite. Even if they retreat, they will fight and retreat to ensure that they will not be covered up on a large scale.


    Modi led the army and retreated from the rear. Even if the left and right wings came to ambush, modi''s tens of thousands of troops retreated together and finally broke out.


    The army retreated rapidly.


    Pound, Gao Lan and others led the pursuit.


    The army chased up and kept killing the soldiers who fell behind.


    Zhang Xiu saw modi''s retreat on the mountain, but she didn''t stay in the headquarters any longer. She rode down the mountain and followed the army to kill modi.


    Although modi failed in this war, the present failure is only the beginning.


    After that, there''s modi.


    Along the official road, the army hid and killed. Along the way, countless Kushan soldiers were either killed or surrendered.


    On modi''s side, the losses are heavy.


    On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s army, even though it had suffered a certain loss in defending Baimang mountain before, even if there was a loss in the subsequent fighting, it was much smaller than the loss rate of Kushan kingdom. The army continued to pursue, and the speed was not slow. It was closer and closer to the camp site of the Kushan army.


    Modi had a look on his face and had expectations. As long as he withdraws to the barracks, with the help of the barracks'' defensive equipment, and modi himself has tens of thousands of troops, he thinks he can hold the barracks.


    It''s less than two or three miles from the camp.


    Suddenly, the pupils in modi''s eyes shrank.


    In the direction of the camp, suddenly, there was a fierce fire, and more smoke rose into the sky. Even a few miles away, modi could see it clearly.


    Modi''s heart, a click.


    Even in his heart, suddenly there was a guess.


    Although modi had a guess, he didn''t want it to happen. He took the soldiers on the road quickly and went on. When the army led by modi really returned to the camp, he was stunned.


    Bad things come true.


    Seeing the fire in the direction of the camp earlier, he speculated that the camp might have been attacked.


    Now, that''s true.


    Modi''s camp has turned into a sea of fire. Under the fire, the whole camp is ablaze with fierce heat waves. Under the fire, everything in the camp quickly turned into ruins.


    It''s over!


    Modi''s heart, sigh.


    There is endless despair in my eyes.


    If his camp is safe and sound, modi can now retreat into the camp, with the help of the camp fortifications to guard against Zhang Xiu''s pursuers outside the camp, which can stop losses in time and reduce losses.


    Now, the camp has turned into a sea of fire. On the one hand, the morale of the army is completely unstable, and on the other hand, the supply defense is lost. The most important thing is that if the army is not stationed for the time being, it will continue to be covered up.


    In the end, there was nothing left of the army around him.


    This is the key.

 Chapter 1178

    "Pull out, full speed."


    Modi roared and ordered: "we retreat to Dichi County, return to Dichi County, and garrison with the help of Dichi county."


    Modi at this moment, flustered.


    He just wanted to get rid of Zhang Xiu''s pursuit and escape back to Dichi county. He had food and grass in Dichi county and a strong city in Dichi county. It was not difficult for him to resist Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Modi dare not stay, with the army quickly retreat.


    But now, the morale of modi''s soldiers is further collapsing, and the loss is enormous.


    Zhang Xiu led the troops in the rear.


    He saw the beginning of the surrender of the Kushan soldiers, with a smile on his face, told the soldiers to control all the surrender of the Kushan soldiers. Although these Kushan soldiers once attacked Daqin, these prisoners were valuable.


    This is business!


    If a simple war, Zhang Xiu between the first World War, will consume countless money and food.


    However, with the captives, they can be sold back to China, and they can make money with the help of the captives to ensure that a war will come down. Zhang Xiu not only won''t lose money, but also can earn a lot of money.


    This is the right way to fight.


    Although such a way of war was not benevolent, for Zhang Xiu, he could not control the life and death of the Kushan people. What Zhang Xiu can think about is that she has one mu and three parts of land to ensure that her people can survive.


    The army continued to cover up and kill until dawn.


    Zhang Xiu is no longer forward.


    However, instead of returning to baimangshan, Zhang Xiu took a rest in the same place and controlled all the prisoners detained along the way. All the prisoners, that is the key of the key, can''t have any loss.


    Near noon, Gao Lan and Zhang Rendu led their troops to withdraw, and they also finished counting the losses.


    Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty, our Liangzhou army has killed more than 4000 soldiers in this battle. General Zhang Ren''s Yizhou army killed more than 3000 soldiers. We lost more than 7000 people. There are too many wounded soldiers to count for the time being. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    The loss was not unexpected.


    After all, in the battle of Baimang mountain, it was first bombarded by the Kushan army, and then by the Baimang mountain''s white blade fighting, which damaged 7000 soldiers, which was the normal number.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and asked, "what''s the harvest of this war?"


    When it comes to harvest, Gao Lan looks at Zhang Ren.


    He and Zhang Ren work together separately. One is responsible for counting his own losses and appeasing the wounded soldiers. The other was to count the prisoners and the gains of the war.


    Zhang Ren said: "Your Majesty, the number of Kushan soldiers we killed in this war is about 18000. The number of Kushan soldiers captured was about 66000. In this war, we have won a great victory. It can be said that the army led by modi was almost completely destroyed. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu also laughed.


    More than 66000 prisoners.


    That''s not a small number.


    In particular, more than 18000 people were killed, which can be said to be fruitful.


    Zhang Ren continued: "Your Majesty, in addition to the captured and killed enemies, we also captured ten cannons. These ten cannons are all sharp weapons used by the Kushan army to bomb mount Baimang. In addition, there are a hundred shells. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she burst out laughing.


    That''s good news.


    With the ten cannons of the Kushan Kingdom, after the cannons were sent back to China, the domestic workshops and the Ministry of industry could quickly imitate the cannons and make new weapons.


    For Daqin, this is an opportunity to take off.


    Instead of sending the cannons back to Chang''an, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered Hu Mo, Mohist children and craftsmen of the Ministry of industry to come to Liangzhou to study the captured cannons and prepare to imitate them.


    When Zhang Xiu arranged for the craftsmen of the Ministry of industry, she went back to the subject and said, "the number of modi''s troops was more than 100000. There are more than 80000 troops in our hands. In addition to this battle, many soldiers must have escaped. Therefore, modi''s side is more than 10000 at most. Modi was completely defeated in this battle. "


    Gao Lan said: "Your Majesty is wise. We have won the battle completely."


    Zhang Xiu looked calm and said, "the reason why this battle can be won so easily is that it is so easy. The fact is also related to modi''s belittling of the enemy. If modi had not known our situation, he would not have been planted in Mt. Baimang. "


    Zhang Ren said: "Your Majesty is right. In this war, modi has the reason to belittle the enemy. However, it was the proper arrangement of the battle and the desperate battle of the officers and men in the army that led to such a great victory. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed with Zhang Ren.


    No victory in any war can be achieved without the hard work of the officers and men in the army.


    This is fundamental.


    If soldiers don''t have to fight, even if it''s a good chance, it''s hard to win.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in this battle, both Yizhou army and Liangzhou army lost some soldiers. If you should, you should. You should reward those who deserve it. You should not be lazy. ""Yes, sir


    Zhang Ren and Gao Lan should go down together.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, it was Wang Yue who lifted up the tent curtain and entered. He came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Your Majesty, there are six businessmen outside the camp. They say they have something important to see your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    So fast.


    Because there was a precedent of Liaodong war, and now Zhang Xiu won the war, these hidden merchants, seeing that Zhang Xiu had won a great victory, were eager to see him for the sake of capture.


    Zhang Xiu said, "tell them that I''m very slow now. I''ll meet them after everything is done."


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned to inform.


    Zhang Xiu''s mind has already planned to open, he did not plan to meet these businessmen now. Because this war has won a great victory, the news is bound to cause shock, so countless businessmen must gather here.


    With more businessmen, there will be competition.


    In terms of price, it''s better.


    If there are few businessmen and less competition, it means that Zhang Xiu earns less money. So now, Zhang Xiu has to delay for a while. When more businessmen arrive, she will meet them again. Zhang Xiu arranges Gao Lan and Zhang Ren''s affairs properly. They step down to do their own work, but Zhang Xiu calls Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong entered the camp and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Shiyuan, do you know that outside the camp today, businessmen have gathered here."


    "I know!"


    Pang Tong nodded.


    Zhang Xiu said: "these businessmen are all for the prisoners of our army. After all, nearly 70000 people were captured in this war. I had planned to deal with this group of prisoners personally, but after thinking about it, I still don''t have to. This time, you will represent me in the negotiation with the businessman. Nearly 70000 prisoners should be disposed of as soon as possible. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "today, I don''t need to see them. Tomorrow morning, you will meet them and dispose of all the Kushan soldiers captured in the army. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong answered and said, "please rest assured that your majesty will complete the task. This group of prisoners will be used to the maximum extent to ensure that they can earn enough money. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ll wait and see!"


    Pang Tong added some details about the prisoner trafficking. Without much delay, he went down to make arrangements.

 Chapter 1179

    Modi withdrew with his army, and when he lost his pursuers, he stopped to rest. However, when the army was recuperating, modi looked around and looked at the soldiers around him, but his eyes were filled with helplessness and resentment.


    In this war, the loss is too great.


    Even if he just let people count the losses, but now a cursory scan, it can also be roughly seen.


    At least more than 80000 or 90000 people have been lost.


    About a quarter of an hour later, Shi Maha, the minister next to Modi, came up and said respectfully, "marshal, we have lost nearly 100000 in this battle. The number of soldiers around us is less than 8000 now. This war is a complete defeat. "


    "Alas..."


    Modi sighed, helpless.


    I didn''t expect that it had come to this.


    He took Zhangye and Jiuquan with great efforts, and then was blocked in Baimang mountain. Even if you want to break through, there is nothing you can do. Especially modi didn''t expect that the battle of baimangshan destroyed his army and made him fall short.


    Shimohe said: "marshal, it''s hard for us to get a foothold in Dichi county now. After we return to Dichi County, will we still stay in Zhangye? "


    When it comes to business, modi perks up again.


    Even now, modi has never given up. After all, he is not willing to withdraw to China so disheartened.


    Modi thought for a while and said, "we have less than 8000 troops today. But in the previous battle with the Qin army, even though the losses were huge, a considerable part of them escaped. So next, there must be some people who will rush back to join us. Our forces will increase again. "


    Shimohe said: "Zhang Xiu has a strong army, but we are weakened to the greatest extent. At this time, even if there are soldiers coming back to join us, there will be more than 20000 at most. Relying on more than 20000 soldiers, it is not easy to defend Dichi county. "


    "How do you know if you don''t try?" modi said


    After a pause, modi said again: "what''s more, we have enough food and grass in Dichi county. At that time, we can rely on food and money to recruit soldiers and rely on local people to resist the Qin army. If we say that the Central Plains of the great Qin Empire, the people belong to the great Qin, I dare not recruit. "


    "But in Dichi County, it can."


    "Because many people in Dichi county are not from the Qin Dynasty, but from the western regions."


    "These people have very low loyalty to Daqin."


    Modi said: "so as long as we recruit the army, the combat effectiveness of the army will be improved, and then with the help of Dichi county to resist Zhang Xiu''s army, it is not impossible. This war is also promising. As long as we keep Zhang Xiu''s army out of Dichi County, Zhang Xiu will not be able to recover Jiuquan and Zhangye counties. Even if we lose our troops at the expense of our troops, we will make great contributions to the monarch. "


    Shimaha''s eyes were shining.


    Modi deserves to be a great coach.


    It''s really an old fox.


    It''s reasonable to think and worry about it. After all, now I''m losing my troops and I''m just going to flee back. Well, they are all losers. They will be despised and ridiculed by countless people when they go back.


    But as long as we keep Dichi, even if the troops are damaged, they are still meritorious.


    Because they opened up territory.


    Shimohe said: "the Marshal''s consideration is really more comprehensive. But marshal, the morale of the army is in turmoil. How can we recover it? "


    This is what modi is facing now.


    The morale of the army is unstable and the morale of the people is lax.


    Once it is not handled properly, even if these soldiers return to Dichi county with Modi, modi will be hard to keep Dichi.


    Modi nodded his head and said, "Maha, you can see it very well. The first task now is to stabilize the morale of the army, calm the mood of the soldiers, and let all the soldiers fight spiritually. Otherwise, we will be defeated. "


    Shimohe said: "the great commander is extremely intelligent. I believe that it''s not difficult for him. We are bound to win this battle. Even if we lose, it''s only temporary. "


    Modi''s eyes narrowed and he thought carefully about his strategy. It is not easy to save the morale of these soldiers. Because the soldiers in the army are not fools. They can see the situation clearly.


    Shimohe stood by without disturbing.


    He waited quietly.


    As one of modi''s relatives, shimohe is well aware of modi''s power. Even in a difficult situation, shimohe also believes that modi is still not in a desperate situation and has the power to return to heaven.


    After half a sound, modi opened his eyes, and there was a light in his eyes.


    He has a way.


    Modi said, "shimoha, gather all the soldiers to the commander in front of us. Now that the army has just retired, I have something to say to all the officers and men. "


    "Yes, sir


    Shi mahadeling, go to arrange it immediately.


    In a short time, there were only eight thousand soldiers left in the guishuang kingdom. However, the 8000 odd soldiers were all in a state of distress and misery, and many of them were even injured.It''s not easy for them to get out.


    So one by one they are in a mess.


    Especially in their eyes, one by one deep in their eyes, there was panic and uneasiness. The soldiers of the Kushan Empire were always invincible. In particular, when sweeping the western regions, he did not encounter anyone who could fight in the first World War. He came to the border of Daqin very smoothly, and successfully invaded and captured Zhangye and Jiuquan.


    Now, it hit the iron plate.


    The whole army was filled with despair.


    Everyone is miserable.


    Modi stood up with his head high, straightening his armor and clothes. He stood in front of everyone with sharp eyes, swept all the soldiers in the army one by one, and said in a high voice: "sons, in the first world war last night, we lost countless comrades in arms and barracks, which can be described as a huge loss."


    "It can even be said that the foundation has been lost."


    "Today''s us, weakened, has been beaten extremely miserable, no and Zhang Xiu a war of power."


    "In this case, Ben Shuai''s first thought is to retreat to Dichi County, take our food and grass, decisively withdraw, leave Zhangye county and prepare to return to Kushan. After all, the troops are insufficient."


    Modi spoke slowly.


    Even if his voice is a little hoarse, it is not very loud, but modi''s voice is clearly introduced into every soldier''s ear, so that soldiers in the army can hear clearly.


    Modi continued: "I''m going to return to Kushan, but it reminds me that now we are not triumphant. Once we withdraw, we are defeated."


    "You know the domestic criminal law."


    "The monarch only pays attention to the winners and is always very strict with the losers. A defeated general will be deprived of his official position; similarly, a defeated soldier will be punished if he goes back. Or demoted to slavery, or corvee. "


    "In a word, the loser''s fate is miserable."


    Modi''s eyes, flashing sharp light, once again said: "so now, even if we are short of troops, but now, we can not retreat. Because once you retreat, you retreat as a loser. "


    "Are you willing to retreat as losers?"


    Modi asked out loud.


    All the soldiers in the array were dumb when they heard the words.


    In Kushan, the ranks are very strict. If the soldiers want to get rid of the fate of being dealt with, they can''t withdraw, they can only fight again. Otherwise, what is waiting for them is the extremely harsh criminal law.


    This is the law of kusana.


    When modi saw the soldiers in the army, they were all worried and unwilling to withdraw. A smile passed over modi''s face.


    It''s done!


    He just wanted to use the domestic criminal law to frighten the soldiers in the army and cut off everyone''s retreat. In this way, the officers and men in the army will not want to retreat and will not be indifferent to war.


    This is modi''s plan.


    Modi took a deep breath, and said again: "son Lang, now you all think that Zhang Xiu''s army is coming. It''s not easy to resist. Thinking that if it is withdrawn to China, it will be disposed of, I am worried. So one by one worried, but Ben Shuai thinks that we are not at the end of our tether. We still have a chance to turn defeat into victory. "


    Shimohe stood in front of the crowd. He heard modi''s words and understood modi''s intention, so he said: "marshal, how can we turn defeat into victory now?"

 Chapter 1180

    Shi Maha''s words represent the aspirations of many soldiers.


    Now, they are worried about being overtaken by Zhang Xiu''s army and being killed. They are more worried about returning to China and being dealt with by harsh criminal law.


    Hearing modi''s words, there seems to be a turning point.


    People are looking forward to it.


    A pair of eyes, Qishu fell on Modi, waiting for modi to explain.


    Modi is very satisfied with the soldiers'' eyes, more satisfied with the soldiers'' recovery of some spirit, at least not as decadent as before. Under such a premise, modi felt that this war really had a certain chance, not empty talk.


    Modi took a deep breath and said, "sons, what we can do now is to retreat to Dichi county. In Dichi County, there is not only enough food, but also enough weapons and money. "


    "The money, food and weapons are enough to sustain us."


    "Of course, there must be doubts."


    "Zhang Xiu''s army is strong and strong, with a force of more than 100000. But now we don''t have even 10000 troops. It''s wishful thinking to resist Zhang Xiu''s attack. "


    Modi looked at the soldiers in the army and yelled, "do any of you think so?"


    "Yes!"


    Shimohe was the first to speak.


    As shimaha spoke, soldiers immediately followed up, and some people questioned him. This is very normal. After all, modi''s troops are small, so it''s almost impossible for him to fight a world war. This is the consensus of all the soldiers in the army.


    Modi was not impatient. He raised his hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet. He said again, "you think it''s wishful thinking, but you forget that we actually have a chance."


    "First of all, our troops are far more than the 8000 in front of us. There will be more."


    "Before that, he fought with Zhang Xiu and was killed by the Qin army. Many soldiers in our army fled. Next, they will gradually return to the army, and gradually return to the army. "


    "According to the normal proportion, there are at least 10000 soldiers who have escaped back."


    "Then we can have more than 20000 troops."


    Modi spoke with great enthusiasm and said: "the strength of more than 20000 people is not a small number. At least, we are no longer allowed to be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu, we can still fight a war. "


    At this time, no one interrupted.


    Everyone is thinking.


    Modi continued: "second, after my commander retired to Dichi County, he would recruit soldiers again. We have plenty of food, weapons and money, so we can recruit on a large scale. "


    "Dichi county is also a big county, especially in Zhangye County, there are countless people who live a hard life. As long as the offer is made, countless people will come to join the army. "


    "It''s not difficult to recruit soldiers."


    "By then, I will be recruiting 30000 soldiers."


    "We have more than 20000 soldiers and more than 30000 soldiers recruited. More than 50000 elite, guarding Dichi county. Such a lineup guard, enough to withstand the attack of Zhang Xiu''s army


    Modi had inexplicable self-confidence in his eyes, and continued: "so now, as long as we go back to Dichi County, we are very likely to keep Dichi county. After all, our strength is not weak."


    After a short pause, modi continued: "third, after the commander-in-chief arrived in Dichi County, he would quickly arrange people to send letters back to China and ask the monarch to dispatch troops to help. That is to say, the Qin army is fierce and hard to resist."


    "So, there must be reinforcements."


    "After all, we captured two counties and occupied the bridgehead to attack Daqin. When the monarch knows the news, he can''t give up the two places. He is bound to go all out to deploy his troops. "


    Modi said: "under such a premise, it is no longer difficult for us to win. In other words, our goal of victory is to hold Dichi county and wait for the arrival of reinforcements. If you still don''t have confidence in this. Well, I have to doubt that you are not the sons of Kushan. "


    "Fight to the end


    Shimohe, as the loyal of Modi, once he heard modi finish, he cried out again.


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers, follow shimaha to shout. The cries of these soldiers reverberated in the air. Even though the voices were a little messy, their fighting spirit had been mobilized.


    The soldiers in the army have the will to fight.


    No longer wilting.


    Seeing this, modi was also relieved. At least, he calmed the soldiers. Then, modi went back to Dichi County, and then with the help of Dichi county to resist Zhang Xiu''s army.


    After a little rest, the army continued on its way and began to go to Dichi county.


    ¡­¡­


    In the early morning of spring, the air is fresh.


    Everything is full of life.


    Pang Tong also got up early. After washing and eating, he began to work in the camp and deal with government affairs. When Pang Tong was about to get busy, some businessmen came to Pang Tong''s camp.This is the first businessman to see Pang Tong.


    The merchant''s surname was Shang, and his name was Shang Tianliang. He was from Guanzhong. Most of the time, however, Shang Tianliang did business in Liangzhou. He went back and forth between Liangzhou, dealing in grain, cloth and other businesses.


    When Shang Tianliang saw Pang Tong, after chatting with him, he took out the prepared gift and wanted to give it to Pang Tong, but Pang Tong refused.


    Since Pang Tong took over Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, he would not abuse his power for personal gain. Therefore, Pang Tong simply put Shang Tianliang in the hall and waited quietly.


    It wasn''t long. Within a quarter of an hour, many businessmen arrived.


    There are seven or eight businessmen in this group.


    And then there''s people coming.


    After a long time, the merchants and family leaders who entered the hall turned out to be more than 30 people. One by one, when they looked at Zhang Xiu, they were eager to get more prisoners.


    With captives, there is a slave business.


    Before that, when Zhang Xiu attacked Liaodong, he captured countless Wuhuan people as prisoners. Those who bought slaves at that time made a lot of money. So now, it''s the wind that moves.


    Pang Tong looked around and saw that no one had entered, so he was ready to order the auction of slaves. However, before the auction, Pang Tong said: "you, the slaves of kushana in this auction, you should know the rules. After all, the last time I was in Liucheng, many of you experienced a slave auction, and they were no strangers. "


    "I know!"


    Among the crowd, Shang Tianliang was the first to speak.


    Before that, when he was in Liucheng, Shang Tianliang also photographed some slaves and made a lot of money. Shang Tianliang can''t wait to buy more slaves and make money from them again.


    Others, too, agreed.


    One by one, they kept opening their mouths, and there was excitement in their eyes.


    They were looking forward to the auction of slaves.


    Pang Tong continued: "all the soldiers and slaves of Kushan Kingdom sold this time are young and strong. They are very good in workmanship and other aspects."


    "For you, this is an opportunity."


    "Hold on, this is another chance to get rich, so please cherish it."


    "Don''t say much."


    "The slaves in this auction are still sold by 1000 people. Among you, those who are willing to auction will continuously increase the price according to the lowest price of each auction, and win with the final winning price. "


    Pang Tong said something about it. With a wave of his hand, he took out the 1000 people''s exchange volume of the first auction.


    The first wave of auctions immediately triggered the competition among the people.


    With the climax of the first wave of slave auctions, the follow-up human trafficking is also constantly making the price rise, constantly affecting the hearts of a wealthy businessman or family.


    This auction lasted until noon.


    Nearly 70000 slaves, all sold at auction.


    Next, nearly 70000 slaves will be covered with tattoos. Because of this tattoo mark, it can be circulated and sold in the slave market.


    Otherwise, it is against the law.


    Only those officially recognized will not be held responsible.


    Pang Tong takes the statistics and strides to Zhang Xiu''s camp. After he saluted Zhang Xiu, his face was still excited. He reported: "Your Majesty, the total price of nearly 70000 slaves sold at auction is 1365500 taels of gold, which can be described as a huge harvest."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked, "how can we make so much money this time?"


    Such a price is unexpected.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    Because such a price, on average, a slave is nearly two liang of gold, which is already a very high price, even higher than today''s market price, so Zhang Xiu was a little surprised.

 Chapter 1181

    Dichi County, south gate.


    There are troops stationed at the gate of the city, and the number of troops is small. After all, what the soldiers at the gate have to do is to check whether the people in and out of the city are armed. There is nothing else.


    On the official road outside the city, a caravan is slowly approaching.


    The number of this caravan is nearly sixty.


    In the caravan, a carriage was moving forward, and the carriage was loaded with grain.


    Headed by a burly young man.


    The young man''s name was Chen Han, a soldier in the fierce tiger army. He disguised himself as a businessman and walked slowly with his soldiers. The closer to the gate of the county, Chen Han''s heart is also quite nervous.


    Whether the city can be broken or not depends on this.


    He can''t screw things up.


    Chen Han looked back. He knew that there were fierce tigers hiding around the rear, in the bushes, in the woods, or on the hillside, and they had gathered around. As soon as he takes control of the city gate, these comrades will immediately come out and fight for the city gate.


    Chen Han took a deep breath, adjusted his mood and took people on. His rough face, a little more flattering look, although slightly stiff, but also can not see what flaws.


    The team moved on.


    It''s getting closer to the city gate.


    When he came to the city gate less than ten steps, Chen Han suddenly settled down in his heart, and then settled down. There was no fear and uneasiness, no tension, and he seemed very comfortable.


    He took the team four more steps before he was stopped by the soldiers stationed at the gate of the city. The soldier, who was stationed at the gate of the city, glanced at Chen Han, then looked at the grain troops in the rear and said, "what do you do?"


    Chen Han said: "report back to Jun ye, we are in the grain business. You see, the bags of grain on the carriage are all transported to Dichi County, ready to be sold in Dichi county. "


    "The grain business?"


    At this time, the small school in charge of the city gate came.


    This small school is also guishuang people, tall, but some of the fat, belly round slip quite straight. In particular, the school saw a load of grain, with a greedy look in his eyes. He rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "I have a rough look. You have ten loads of grain here. I''m afraid you can make a lot of money."


    Chen Han had been told by Guo jiaphen for a long time. As soon as he heard that the school was talking about money, he had a happy look on his face.


    Here comes the opportunity.


    His hand, slowly deep into the sleeve.


    This action fell in the eyes of the school, and his eyes narrowed, because in the eyes of the school, Chen Han''s action must be to touch the money. As long as Chen Han gives the money, he will not stop it and will give it convenience.


    Chen Han''s hand is still in his sleeve, but he is two steps closer to the school, only half a step away. At this time, Chen Han suddenly took out his hand and quickly lowered it.


    A touch of cold light suddenly appeared in Chen Han''s hands.


    "Kill


    Chen Han drinks low.


    With his low drink, the next moment, sharp dagger, has been stabbed into the heart of the school. Chen Han is an old hand in the battlefield. When he makes an effort, the dagger breaks Chen Han''s heart.


    Xiao Xiao''s eyes widened, and his eyes showed an incredible look.


    How is that possible?


    The man in front of me is an assassin.


    The school tried hard to support him, but the strength in his body was pouring like water. In an instant, he lost his strength and fell to the ground with a plop.


    At the moment when the school was killed, Chen Han''s soldiers were also tacit lightning strikes.


    One by one, the soldiers drew their swords and came forward to chop.


    In a short time, he killed the guishuang soldiers at the gate of the city and seized the control of the gate. This situation alarmed the Kushan army stationed on the upper floor of the city.


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of the Gong reverberates endlessly.


    This is a special way to convey the message that there is an enemy attack.


    The general stationed on the tower quickly mobilizes the soldiers, and then runs down the galloping road of the tower to the gate, intending to block Chen Han and his party who control the gate. However, when the soldiers were killed on the city tower, a group of Qin soldiers quickly appeared outside the city. These soldiers came out from all directions and went straight to the south gate.


    Chen Han took control of the south gate, and was attacked by the Kushan army, but he stayed there and didn''t step back. Fortunately, after a while, the follow-up soldiers arrived and joined the battlefield. With one go, they destroyed the defense line of Kushan army and entered the city.


    "Kill, kill the Kushan army."


    "The capture of Dichi county is today."


    "Kill


    ¡­¡­


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    More and more soldiers of Qin army appeared in the city and began to kill the soldiers of Kushan. Even if there were garrisons on the city tower, the number and strength of these garrisons were not Qin''s rivals at all.


    The fighting at the gate of the city continues, but the Kushan army has begun to rout.After the sound of the Gong, the heralds had retreated and rushed to Marcus'' house in the city. The messenger broke into the hall in panic.


    Now in the hall, yingyingyanyan, a school of singing and dancing. Even, there are several Marcus under the general, is holding the woman wantonly kneading.


    The scene is beautiful and unbearable.


    Marcus was not happy to see the panicked appearance of the herald. He yelled, "what''s the system of panicking? Especially, it''s nonsense for you to break in without reporting."


    The herald ignored everything else and said in a loud voice, "it''s not good. It''s not good."


    Marcus frowned and said, "what''s the matter?"


    The messenger said, "the Qin army has entered the city. Our soldiers in the south gate have been killed. The troops of the great Qin army have entered the city. Roughly speaking, there are countless Qin troops outside the city. General Marcus, we can''t keep Dichi county. Especially today''s Qin army has entered the city and started to move towards your residence. "


    Brush!


    Marcus changed his face.


    The rest of the generals sitting on the left and right sides of the hall also looked alarmed.


    Dichi county is an important town.


    Its defense is quite solid, but I didn''t expect that this Dichi county is now broken by the Qin army. Originally one by one heart, quite confident, did not think that Dichi county would fall. But now, the cruel reality placed in front of one by one, so that all faces, are showing anxious look.


    "General, we have only six thousand people. If we can''t hold on with our troops, retreat! "


    In the crowd, there was a suggestion to retreat.


    "General, the general also agreed to withdraw."


    "General Marcus, we can only retreat now. After all, we are not strong enough. If we delay, or delay again, we will not be able to evacuate. "


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, Marcus''s subordinates, no one asked for a fight, all proposed to withdraw.


    That''s true for all of us.


    In fact, Marcus still wanted to fight for the first World War. After all, there were countless grains, money and equipment in the county seat of Dichi. Even there were six cannons exclusive to the Kushan empire.


    If Marcus withdraws such a large amount of materials, he will be too guilty to bear. So even if the people under his command admonished him, Marcus was still reluctant to retreat.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier entered.


    The soldier rushed back from the south gate. After entering, he knelt down on one knee and reported: "general Marcus, there are countless Qin troops outside the city. It is roughly estimated that the number of Qin troops is at least 30000. Our troops at the south gate have been completely lost and are retreating towards the general''s house. "


    Brush!


    Marcus'' face changed again and again.


    He sighed even more.


    I can''t keep it.


    The strength of the Qin army was at least 30000, while he had only 6000. If we rely on the strong city of the county, Marcus still has some assurance. But now, the Qin army has entered the city. Under the mighty army, Marcus can''t keep it.


    "Retreat, we''ll evacuate at once."


    Marcus was not indecisive and immediately gave the order to retreat. Even now everything is in a hurry. He doesn''t even have time to go back to the granary. He has no time to deal with the stored grain. He can only retreat in a hurry.


    Marcus retreated with his men and went straight to the east gate.


    He believes that the number of people in Dongmen is small and it is easy to evacuate.

 Chapter 1182

    Pang Tong explained: "Your Majesty, I have made some understanding about the price rise. Today, nearly 70000 Kushan prisoners have taken nearly 140000 taels of gold, which is really normal. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Pang Tong said, "there are three reasons."


    "First, today''s slave market is in short supply and there is a great demand for slaves. However, there are very few slaves in real supply. In addition to the slaves captured by the imperial court through the war, the slaves captured by the merchants were just a drop in the ocean after all. The number of slaves was too small to meet the needs of the slave market of the Qin Dynasty. "


    "Second, the slaves were good as a whole. The prisoners of the Kushan army were almost all young and strong, few old and weak. In particular, these people are tall and strong. Whether they are used for work or other aspects, they are of great value. Its overall value is more valuable than that of the Wuhuan people. "


    Pang Tong said, "third, the competition among businessmen, especially when we sell by auction, has raised a certain price. If the normal sale, the price will not be so high


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s the same truth."


    Pang Tong added: "today, all the merchants are going to collect the Kushan slaves by cash. These people who became slaves were all branded to show their identity. When the major buyers bring the slaves back, they can sell them again after a little training. Your majesty, we''ve made a lot of money this time. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "so this is the right way to fight. Foreign expeditions must make money. If the external expedition does not make money, the imperial court will not be able to support it for a long time. "


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go and arrange the handover of slaves. After the handover, we will set off again and go to Dichi county. Today, modi is expecting to return to Dichi. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong answered and turned to leave.


    ¡­¡­


    Dichi County, located in the central and southern part of Zhangye County, has a vast territory, far more than other counties of Zhangye county. Among the counties in Zhangye County, Dichi is the largest.


    However, the location of Dichi is not the best.


    When it comes to prosperity, it is not as prosperous as the other counties in Zhangye county.


    However, the city of Di Chi was quite strong. It was paved with green stones, not rammed with earth. Such a city is nearly three feet high, standing firmly on the earth, can be described as a strong city.


    The general of Kushan army stationed in Dichi County, named Marcus, was a noble of Kushan empire. He led 6000 soldiers stationed in Dichi county to protect food, equipment and money.


    But Marcus didn''t think it was dangerous to stay in Dichi county.


    After all, Dichi county is located in the rear.


    There is modi in the front line. It is impossible for the soldiers of Daqin to come to Dichi. Therefore, Marcus has no heart to be on guard. In Dichi County, he should drink and enjoy singing and dancing all the time.


    When Marcus indulged in wine and sex and lowered his vigilance, he was in a mountain forest six miles outside the city of Dichi county.


    This mountain forest is quite vast.


    It can hold countless people in hiding.


    Deep in the mountains, in a slightly empty place, there is an army entrenched here. The dress of this army is the Qin army. The leading generals are Gan Ning and Zhao Yun.


    Both of them were dressed in armour with a look of desperation.


    Next to them was Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia''s face was calm. Looking at Zhao Yun and Gan Ning, who were quite nervous, he joked: "general Gan and General Zhao, the Sentinels sent to inquire about the news will come back soon. When we have a clear idea of the situation in Dichi County, we can win it in one go. "


    Gan Ning said, "it''s not easy for Guo Junshi to capture Dichi."


    Guo Jia shook his sleeve and said, "in my opinion, it''s not a difficult thing. Because Dichi county is located in the rear, even if there is a defensive force, it can not be too strong. And our two armies are converging, 70, 000 troops. Even if it''s a strong attack on Dichi, it''s not hard. Today, it''s even easier to seize the Dichi. "


    "I hope so," Ganning said


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a sentry came running.


    The sentinel came to Guo Jia''s side and reported: "commander Guo, all the information you want to inquire has been inquired. In today''s Dichi County, there are 6000 troops, all elite. "


    "The Garrison''s general is Marcus, who is said to be good at fighting. However, in the county seat of Dichi, Marcus ate, drank and played, and seldom practiced soldiers in the army. "


    "In the gate of Dichi County, there is no blockade of the gate, you can go in and out normally."


    "The east gate is the weakest of the four gates. Because the road to the east of Dichi county is blocked, there are few troops in the east gate. However, the South Gate of Dichi county is a very prosperous place with people coming and going. "


    The sentinel reported the news quickly.Guo Jia specially asked the sentinel to inquire into the news. In particular, the garrison in Dichi county has already garrisoned generals, which must be investigated clearly.


    After listening to the sentry''s words, Gan Ning did not wait for Guo Jia to speak, then said: "military division, there are few troops stationed in the east gate of Dichi county. Then, we''ll attack the east gate and go into the city in one go. "


    "No!"


    But Guo Jia shook her head and answered.


    Gan Ning said, "what should we do now, according to Mr. Guo


    Guo Jia''s eyes flashed a bright light and said: "general Gan, what we need to do now is to enter through the south gate. On the surface, there are few troops in Dongmen and weak defense. But in fact, because there are few people going, our people are easy to be found as soon as they appear. "


    "Dichi County garrison can make response in the shortest time."


    "It''s so hard to attack."


    "On the contrary, it''s the south gate, because people come and go, and the daily flow of people in and out is large. Even if our people show up, it will not arouse suspicion. So on this basis, we arranged a group of soldiers to go to the gate of the city disguised as a caravan, and then suddenly launched an attack. "


    Guo Jia said: "in this way, we can control the gate of Dichi county. As long as the soldiers occupy the gate of Dichi County, the army can quickly move into the city. Once our army enters the city, there will be no more suspense about this battle. "


    Gan Ning heard a flash in front of his eyes and said, "it''s worthy of being commander Guo. Your plan is really good."


    Zhao Yun''s eyes were solemn and said solemnly, "I agree with the tactics of commander Guo. But commander Guo, if we go into the city, I''m afraid Marcus will withdraw immediately if he doesn''t see the enemy. "


    "I suggest leaving a cavalry outside the city of Dichi county. Once Marcus led his troops out of Dichi County, he would directly kill and ambush the enemy who left the city. "


    "In this way, we can ensure that there are no fish who miss the net."


    "After all, in the direction of Mt. Baimang, your majesty and modi are at war. By your Majesty''s means, you are likely to defeat modi in a short time. After the defeat of Modi, the first place for him to retreat was Dichi County, where he had accumulated grain and equipment. "


    Zhao Yun said: "we have captured Dichi County quietly. Once modi comes back, it''s a trap. It''s easy to take modi. Of course, if your majesty is on the front line of Baimang mountain and can kill Modi, it is the best. But we have to take this layer into consideration. "


    Guo Jia nodded his approval, and Zhao Yun''s consideration was indeed comprehensive. He said immediately, "General Zhao has said a lot, and this is the key point. I will do it according to General Zhao''s arrangement."


    Ganning echoed: "I agree that Marcus can''t escape, and modi can''t escape."


    The three men made a plan and acted immediately.


    A small group of soldiers were sent out to escort a batch of grain out of the mountain forest along the official road to the South Gate of Dichi county. Gan Ning and Zhao Yun broke up the soldiers in the army and temporarily dispersed them. They either took the path or the official road and started to go to the county.

 Chapter 1183

    After Ganning and Zhao Yun led the army into the city, Zhao Yun led the army to sweep Sifang City, control Dichi County, and control the granary and equipment warehouse in the city to ensure that these materials would not be damaged. Ganning went straight to Marcus'' residence with his army.


    However, by the time Ganning arrived, Marcus had evacuated with his men.


    Ganning inquired and learned that Marcus was evacuating towards the east gate. He was not in a hurry. After all, there were cavalry outside the city, which was enough to stop Marcus from evacuating.


    However, Gan Ning also went straight to the East Gate with his army.


    This time, we''re going to take Marcus.


    When Ganning pursued, Marcus'' team had retreated to the east gate. Today, there are only a thousand people around Marcus. After all, the forces under Marcus are mainly guarding the four gates. It is quite good to have more than 1000 people around him.


    "Retreat, accelerate the retreat."


    Marcus raced his horse and gave a loud order.


    He knew the Qin army would come after him.


    So we must speed up the evacuation. When we are far away from Dichi County, he will find a way to join modi and plead with modi. Marcus was very clear that Dichi county was lost, and he might even be executed, but after all, he was from a noble family, so he thought that modi would consider the situation of his family, and most likely spared him.


    As long as he can survive, Marcus thinks it''s good.


    If you live, you have a chance.


    Marcus led his men out of the east gate and went on. He was heading for the border of Zhangye county and the direction of Baimang mountain.


    At the beginning, Marcus led a smooth team.


    There was no resistance.


    However, when Marcus took people away for about a quarter of an hour, and even the soldiers in the army were very tired and slowed down, a cavalry suddenly appeared on the official road ahead.


    This cavalry is black and white.


    Roughly speaking, the number is at least 3000.


    "Boom!"


    The horse''s hooves were trampling on the ground, making it tremble. The cavalry of more than 3000 people began to speed up their sprint, and all of them spread out like a fan. The attack was overwhelming.


    Brush!


    At this moment, Marcus changed his face.


    Ambush!


    The Qin army set up an ambush outside the east gate.


    "Retreat, turn around and retreat quickly. Let''s go to the north. Let''s go to the north of Dichi county."


    Marcus gave a loud order.


    After all, there were still hundreds of steps between the two sides, so Marcus quickly turned his horse''s head and took the men to the north, intending to avoid the cavalry. But his soldiers, many of them infantry, are slow. Marcus himself fled with a few generals, but the infantry were soon overtaken by the cavalry.


    Under the cover of cavalry, the infantry were completely defeated after a short time.


    There was not even a splash.


    The cavalry pursued again and continued in the direction of Marcus'' withdrawal. However, although the pursuing cavalry was speeding up, it seemed that they were not particularly eager to catch up.


    Marcus fled with people, and the number of people around him is now less than 100.


    Many are generals in the army.


    There are also some of Marcus'' bodyguards.


    There are all kinds of horses.


    Those without horses had been killed by the cavalry of the Qin army.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    As Marcus retreated, he continued to shout for his men to leave at full speed. However, in such a big environment, all of us are terrified and worried, and keep retreating.


    "General, there are cavalry in front."


    At this moment, suddenly, someone yelled again.


    When Marcus heard this, he looked up and saw a group of cavalry on the official road ahead. Because of the distance, I can only see the dark shadow, but I can clearly see the dust splashed by the horses.


    It''s over!


    Marcus''s heart, completely flustered.


    He looked roughly, and the number of cavalry in front of him was at least one thousand.


    Such numbers, fanning out, have blocked Marcus'' way. Under such a premise, Marcus wants to evacuate, which is already extremely difficult.


    He can''t escape.


    Marcus simply stopped and looked left and right. He instinctively wanted to break through to the West. But in the distance to the west, some cavalry came. Even to his East, it was the same.


    Marcus is surrounded.


    It''s impossible to break through.


    "General, we can''t get out now. Let''s go down! "


    "Yes, yes. Today, we have lost all our food, money and equipment. Even if we go back, we will be punished. Now that it''s down, there''s still a chance of life. ""Please make up your mind."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the generals under Marcus began to persuade Marcus to surrender. When there are advantages, they scramble one by one; when they encounter difficulties, they dodge quickly and dare not face up to them; when they are in a desperate situation, they propose to surrender and are unwilling to fight to the death.


    Marcus was so cold.


    He has no choice.


    "Just surrender!"


    Marcus sighed and gave the order.


    With this order, Marcus and all his subordinates turned over and got off the horse. They even threw away their weapons, and stood in the same place, afraid to fight again.


    Soon the cavalry came up and surrounded Marcus.


    After the cavalry quickly took down Marcus and others, they escorted the previous prisoners back to Dichi county. However, on the way back, he met Gan Ning and his party who came to pursue him.


    Ganning is very happy to learn that the pursuit has won a complete victory and captured the retreating Marcus and his party. Ganning saw Marcus in the crowd, but did not say much, with the team to withdraw.


    Back in the county, the army was stationed.


    Gan Ning went straight up to the city building and came to the room where Zhao Yun and Guo Jia were.


    With a smile on his face, he said: "in this war, we have not let an enemy escape. Today, this Dichi county is quietly changing its ownership. Next, let''s wait for modi to come back. "


    After a pause, Ganning said: "I''m looking forward to seeing that modi won''t be directly captured after he lost to his majesty. We have to withdraw to Dichi county so that we can have a chance. "


    "It depends on luck," Guo said


    After a pause, Guo Jia solemnly said, "general Gan and General Zhao, the next thing to do is to block the news. In today''s Dichi County, no one is allowed to enter or leave. Only in this way can we prevent the leakage of information. During this period of time, army patrols should be strengthened to avoid chaos in the city. "


    "I understand!"


    Zhao Yun and Gan Ning should go down together.


    Both of them are generals in the army. They know what to do and what not to do after they have won Dichi county.


    Guo Zhanhui sent the news back to di County immediately. If your majesty and modi fight and fail to make a breakthrough, you can use the victory of Dichi county to break the deadlock. If your majesty wins, then your majesty can rest assured of the war in Dichi county. "


    Zhao Yun said, "what commander Guo said is very true."


    Ganning also felt happy, because the capture of Dichi county was very smooth. In particular, such a victory will be of great help to the next war.


    After a discussion, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning went to deal with the affairs in the army, but Guo Jia had to get busy, because after the victory of Dichi County, Guo Jia had to deal with the administrative affairs of Dichi County, pacify the people, and readjust the officials.

 Chapter 1184

    Modi led the army to retreat. As he expected, in the process of retreat, soldiers came to join him. So that the soldiers around Modi, from more than 8000 at the beginning, rapidly increased to about 15000.


    Nearly double the number of people, the daily consumption of food also increased.


    Today, modi mainly relies on the villages and towns along the way to supply. If you are willing to supply, modi will not plunder. But not willing to supply, modi is conniving soldiers looting.


    At this point, modi won''t stay.


    Everything is to survive.


    When modi retreats with his army, he also arranges a sentry to find out the movement of Zhang Xiu''s army in the rear, so as to ensure modi can know Zhang Xiu''s situation at any time.


    On this day, at noon.


    The army stopped to rest, and the soldiers also cooked and began to prepare lunch. After all, there is not enough food and grass, so the food for soldiers at noon is relatively simple, not particularly rich.


    But at least it''s full.


    Modi now, the whole person a pair of eyes with thick bags, eyes covered with blood, is very tired. This is not only mental fatigue, but also physical fatigue.


    But modi has to stick to it.


    If modi is the first to fall, his soldiers will not be able to support him.


    "Newspaper!"


    As modi rested against a big tree, the sentinel Pegasus retreated.


    There was a rush in the voice of the sentinel.


    With the sound of the horse''s hooves, the sentry came to modi soon, turned over and got off the horse, knelt down on one knee and said, "commander, there is news about the disposal of the prisoners by the Qin army in the rear."


    As he spoke, the prisoner handed a letter.


    Modi took the letter. When he opened the letter and saw the content, his hand could not help shaking. The letter fell directly to the ground, and modi''s face also turned black.


    "Zhang Xiu, I''m not with you."


    "If I don''t kill you, I swear I won''t be a man."


    "You deceive too much!"


    ¡­¡­


    Modi murmured to himself, his face was livid, and his eyes showed no intention of killing. If eyes can kill people, Zhang Xiu has died countless times.


    Modi''s every move affects the hearts of the generals. Shimohe is always beside modi. When he sees the letter on the ground, he quickly picks it up and reads it.


    "Hiss!"


    Seeing this, shimohe couldn''t help taking a breath.


    Zhang Xiu is too cruel.


    There are nearly 70000 soldiers in Kushan, but now Zhang Xiu has sold them all. Take the soldiers of Kushan as slaves and sell them all.


    This is the information in the letter.


    The information sent back by the sentinel is about how Zhang Xiu dealt with the prisoners.


    That''s why modi is so angry.


    This battle between modi and Zhang Xiu not only damaged his generals, such as Shaqi, akelu and Salman, but also was captured by Zhang Xiu.


    Now, it''s all sold.


    They were all slaves.


    No one can bear such a situation.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Modi''s breathing, are increasingly rapid, chest constantly bullying. Originally these days, modi is already weak, heartburn, so that the body is very uncomfortable. Now, stimulated by the intelligence news, he is even more anxious and can no longer suppress his own Qi and blood.


    All of a sudden, modi just felt sweet in his throat.


    "Poof!"


    A mouthful of red blood sprayed from modi''s mouth. Blood spilled, modi mouth with a trace of blood, and modi itself, is the breath of wilting.


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu!"


    Modi yelled bitterly.


    With the roar of Modi, his eyes full of blood are already full of crystal clear tears. Drop by drop of tears from the eyes, from the cheek down, wet clothes.


    At this moment, modi''s heart is like a knife.


    He suffered a great deal.


    As a veteran who has been fighting for decades, modi has never encountered such humiliating things. His soldiers were sold as slaves by Zhang Xiu.


    It''s a shame for modi.


    When shimohe saw this, he sighed in his heart. Zhang Xiu''s treatment is really surprising. No one thought that Zhang Xiu would sell the prisoners as slaves.


    Shimaha didn''t open his mouth to persuade.


    These days, he knows the pressure that modi is under and that modi''s spirit is on the verge of collapse. Now, it''s not a bad thing for Mo Di to cry.


    Doing things with emotion is easy to make mistakes.


    After all the emotions are vented, people can be relaxed and go to the battlefield without burden, so that they can make rational judgment.After half a sound, modi stopped crying.


    Shimohe said: "marshal, this is the end of the matter. What we need to do now is to cheer up and take revenge for our comrades who died in the war and those who were captured. Now, we still need to speed up the withdrawal of Dichi county. Only when we return to Dichi County as soon as possible and recruit new soldiers can we have the capital to fight against Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, everything will be in vain. "


    Modi took a deep breath, wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, and said: "you''re right, I can''t let Zhang Xiu look down on it, let alone make Zhang Xiu proud. Now this war, we have not completely lost to Zhang Xiu. As long as we have a chance, I will fight to the end. "


    "Handsome and wise!"


    Shimohe said: "this is the marshal that the last general knows. Even if he is defeated, he can still turn the tables in adversity and turn the situation around in adversity."


    With a flick of his sleeve, modi stood up and looked around at the generals. He said in a deep voice: "all the captured comrades have been sold as slaves by Zhang Xiu. Now, you should know what is the end of defeat. "


    "We flee back home and will be dealt with. It is estimated that they are not much different from slaves. They must have lost their freedom and everything. When we were defeated, we were treated as slaves by Zhang Xiu. It''s hard for us to be free. "


    "We have only one war now."


    "And we have to win."


    Modi tossed the ground and said: "now, we are only allowed to win, not lose. Now, we can only withdraw to Dichi county first, and then fight to death with the help of Dichi county and Zhang Xiu. "


    "Fight to the death!"


    Shimohe roared.


    He admired modi because modi was always able to boost morale.


    Just as now, it was supposed to be people''s grief, but after modi''s words, it turned to inspire all the soldiers, so that they could fight to death instead of self pity.


    "Fight to the death!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    ¡­¡­


    All the soldiers in the army roared.


    Everyone is full of war.


    It''s not that they want to fight, it''s that they are forced into a desperate situation and can only fight. Therefore, under the instigation of modi''s words, all of them are ready to fight against Zhang Xiu and fight again with the help of Dichi county.


    Modi looked around, looking at the excited soldiers, his heart was also relieved. Now, he wants to control this group of soldiers and ensure that this war will continue and win.


    This is modi''s plan.


    After boosting the morale of the soldiers, modi ordered them to continue their journey after lunch. In May, when the weather became warmer, the army led by modi returned to Dichi county.


    When he came to the outside of Dichi County, modi looked at the towering city wall of Dichi county and the flag of Kushan Empire floating on the tower, with a smile on his face.


    He finally came back.


    Finally back to Dichi county.

 Chapter 1185

    Modi takes people to the county town, but he is relieved. This time, it''s not easy to persist until we return to Dichi county. After all, the loss of his forces is too great.


    Up to now, there are no more than 10000 people. Compared with the past, modi randomly mobilized at least 10000 or 20000 troops, but now there are more than 10000.


    The gap is huge.


    But modi put up with it.


    Because modi wants revenge.


    "Speed up, go back to the city earlier, recover combat effectiveness earlier, and take revenge earlier."


    Modi yelled orders.


    Today, what modi can inspire the soldiers is the money and food in Dichi county. With the money and food, modi has the foundation to reward the soldiers and mobilize the enthusiasm of the soldiers.


    Soldiers in the army, hurry up.


    In a short time, the army arrived downstairs.


    Modi looked up to the top of the city and exclaimed, "Marcus, Ben is back. Open the gate immediately, and I will enter the city. "


    "Wait a minute, marshal."


    Marcus called from the top of the city.


    He has surrendered to Daqin.


    Before that, he led the troops to withdraw, but in the end, he was surrounded by the cavalry of Gan Ning and Zhao Yun, so he surrendered. Because of the need to ambush Modi, Guo Jia suggested that Marcus be recruited, so Marcus would reply on the tower.


    If there is Marcus, modi has no doubt.


    "Creak!"


    The gate opened.


    Modi waved and ordered, "enter the city!"


    With modi''s order, shimohe led the soldiers into the city. Modi also followed, quickly with the army into the city.


    As the army marches into the city, modi''s heart is full of spirit.


    He will rise again.


    When modi and his army all entered the city, suddenly, the city gate was closed with a creak, and the Qianjin gate fell from the upper floor of the city, completely blocking the way out of the city.


    The roar of Qianjin gate makes modi''s heart burst. Modi had a bad feeling in his heart. He looked up at the tower and yelled, "Marcus, why did you suddenly close the gate?"


    Marcus stood on the tower and did not answer.


    Zhao Yun and Gan Ning led the soldiers out of the city street. Zhao Yun''s eyes were sharp, and there was a voice on the ground: "Modi, why do you want to close the city gate? Don''t you know now?"


    Gan Ning said in a deep voice, "today is your death, modi."


    Two men led the troops in the city.


    The mighty army set out to block modi''s way into the city, and surrounded modi''s army.


    In fact, this is the reason why the city of Dichi county is small. If the city of Dichi county is large and has a urn, as long as modi enters the urn, he can kill modi without a single soldier. He only needs some bows and arrows. Because there is no urn in Dichi County, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning need to lead the troops to surround and kill modi personally.


    Modi is sad at the moment.


    It was calculated again.


    In the first World War of baimangshan, he was calculated by Zhang Xiu, so that he lost his barracks, food, equipment and so on. At that time, modi had to withdraw. He wanted to withdraw to Dichi county and resist with the help of Dichi county.


    Now, it is found that Dichi county has fallen.


    He''s already miserable.


    But now I found that only worse, not the worst.


    It''s really horrible.


    Modi bit his teeth, eyes fell on Gan Ning and Zhao Yun, and said in a deep voice, "who are you affiliated to Zhang Xiu?"


    Ganning said: "this will be Ganning of Youzhou military region."


    Zhao Yun said, "I will be Zhao Yun of Chang''an military region."


    They answered together. At the same time, the army behind them held their heads high, and there was an atmosphere of extermination. A long, sharp gun, with a sharp, cold light on its tip. The blade of a knife is dazzling.


    Cold, fierce and murderous, filled with self army.


    This scene made modi''s cheek twitch. When he saw the situation, he knew that he could not escape.


    Zhao Yun took a breath and said in a loud voice: "Modi, now you put down your arms and surrender. You will not be killed, but you will be saved. If you resist, there will be no amnesty. "


    Modi snorted: "even if it''s surrender, what''s the good result? Zhang Xiu of the Qin Dynasty captured the soldiers of the Kushan Empire and sold them as slaves. Now we surrender and are sold as slaves. What''s the difference between being sold and being killed? "


    Gan Ning took the lead in saying, "it''s a big difference."


    For modi''s answer, Ganning said with a smile: "Modi, you are also the commander of the Kushan empire. Don''t you know the difference between being sold and being killed?"


    "If you''re killed, you''re dead. There''s nothing."


    "Sold, at least alive."


    Ganning said, "Modi, would you rather die or be sold? All the kusana soldiers, listen. If you want you to lay down your arms and surrender, I will not kill your soldiers. "After the soldiers of Kushan heard it, someone relayed Gan Ning''s words, and the soldiers in the army talked about it one after another.


    At this moment, these soldiers have no morale.


    There''s no need to fight.


    Because they are surrounded, they become trapped animals.


    Modi clenched his teeth and exclaimed, "Ben Shuai would rather be killed than sold."


    He turned around and looked at the soldiers under his command, shouting: "sons, we are the soldiers of Kushan Empire, and we are the sons with lofty character. Are you willing to be sold as slaves? Ben would rather be a prisoner than a slave. Today, there is death. I''ll fight to the end. Are you willing to fight to the end with me? "


    There was a lot of discussion among the officers and men in the army.


    Many people talk about the difference between being a slave after being captured and being killed in a dead battle.


    But mole ants still live secretly, let alone human beings?


    Even as slaves, they are still alive, so most of the soldiers in the army are unwilling to fight any more and prefer to surrender. So that after modi yelled, there was no response, only a few people spoke.


    Shimaha, who responded quickly in the past, was also silent.


    Shimoha did not speak, so did the other generals.


    Few people go along with modi.


    Modi''s cheek twitched and he suddenly laughed miserably and said with emotion, "well, well, I was thinking about fighting to the death, but I didn''t expect that all the soldiers in the army were greedy for life and afraid of death and didn''t want to fight to the death. In that case, let''s go down! "


    Hoo!!


    Many people breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the words.


    They were afraid of modi''s death.


    Now that modi says he''s down, they don''t have to risk their lives to fight. After all, in the current situation, it''s really silly and naive to know that fighting is to die, but also to fight.


    After modi said surrender, his voice rose, and he almost roared, "but you are willing to surrender, but I can''t. This Shuai, life is the person of Kushan, death is the ghost of Kushan, would rather die than be humiliated. "


    Sonorous!


    As he spoke, modi drew his sword.


    The sharp edge of the sword was lifted up and swept across his neck.


    "Yes


    The blade cut his neck, and the red blood splashed out and fell on the ground.


    Modi''s body was shaking, and he felt that everything in front of him began to shake, and there were overlapping shadows. Just in the eyes of the color, but quietly and quickly dim.


    The next moment, modi was in the dark.


    "Plop!"


    A dull sound came out, modi''s body, already fell to the ground, no breath.


    Shimohe and others were shocked.


    They have decided to surrender because they are the main generals in the army. Even if Zhang Xiu wants to sell ordinary soldiers, but they are such a level of generals, Zhang Xiu will certainly be useful, so they think it''s not their turn to be sold.


    They are willing to surrender.


    But modi committed suicide.


    Modi''s fortitude, in sharp contrast to their surrender, also makes each one feel shocked and even more uncomfortable. I don''t know how, my heart is mixed.

 Chapter 1186

    Modi''s suicide, even in the eyes of Zhao Yun and Gan Ning, is quite shocking.


    After all, the commander-in-chief of the first army, who dares to commit suicide, is not a coward. Especially in front of the two armies, in order not to be humiliated, modi killed himself. Even as the enemy, Gan Ning and Zhao Yun also pay great respect.


    Zhao Yun looked around and said again, "modi is dead. We will lay down our arms and surrender. We will not kill. If you want to follow modi''s example, there will be no amnesty. "


    Ganning ordered: "you quickly make a decision, do not make a decision, no amnesty."


    The two men''s urging voice, through reporting, spread throughout the whole Kushan army.


    "I will surrender!"


    Shimohe was the first to speak.


    After shimaha opened his mouth, the rest of the generals spoke one after another, expressing their willingness to surrender. Then the soldiers in the army, no longer insisting, put down their weapons one after another and knelt down on the ground.


    With a wave of Zhao Yun''s big hand, some soldiers came forward and quickly detained group after group of Kushan soldiers. This group of more than 15000 Kushan soldiers who entered the city were all taken down.


    Taking into account more than 6000 Kushan soldiers under Marcus'' command, more than 20000 prisoners have been taken into custody by Zhao Yun and Gan Ning alone, which is a great fortune.


    It can be said that it is a big profit.


    After everything is settled, Guo Jia has specially arranged for sentinels to send a letter to Zhang Xiu to report the situation of Dichi County, so that Zhang Xiu can know that the army led by modi has been taken.


    After all this, Guo Jia began to interrogate the officers and soldiers of Kushan and understand the situation of Kushan. Find out the news ahead of time, and when Zhang Xiu arrives, Guo Jia can report it directly, and there is no need to waste time to get the information.


    In the middle of May, Zhang Xiu''s army arrived in Dichi county.


    The army entered the city and joined the army in the city.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the main position, and below sits Guo Jia, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Pang Tong, Zhang Ren, Gao Lan, pound and others.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I already know the information reported by Guo Jia. Now that modi is dead, modi''s army is lost. For Daqin, it is a grand event. Next, it''s easy to recapture Zhangye and Jiuquan. "


    "We have won this battle!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are full of excitement and joy.


    This time, Zhang Xiu didn''t know much about Kushan because she didn''t know much about it. But now, Zhang Xiu''s understanding of Kushan is gradually increasing, and she has a general understanding of the western regions.


    When people heard the speech, they were also very happy.


    Win!


    They won!


    As a matter of fact, the fighting in this war is not very complicated or particularly difficult.


    It went well and won.


    Zhang Xiu and other people stopped talking. As soon as the words changed, they said: "the more than 20000 Kushan troops captured by the new prisoners were still sold to the domestic merchants and families, as before, and they made money from these slaves. Pang Tong, you are still in charge of this. "


    "Yes, sir


    Pang Tong bowed himself to answer.


    Because he had presided over a slave trade before, he had connections with many merchants and family leaders. So now that he is in charge again, it is very easy. Just let out the wind and it can be done easily.


    Guo Jia suddenly said, "Your Majesty, when it comes to the slave trade, I think we should be more careful. Otherwise, the sale of slaves will easily lead to problems. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Guo Jia replied: "tell your majesty, I suppose a family with ulterior motives. The sun family is rich and powerful. Because of the land reform in the Qin Dynasty, the sun family had no slaves and could not hide their strength. But because the slave trade was legal, the imperial court also encouraged aristocratic families and merchants to buy slaves. "


    "The sun family has a strange mind."


    "So he can buy slaves and strengthen his family."


    "Once the number of slaves reaches a certain level, it is a potential threat. For example, I suppose the sun family, once the sun family has more than 1000 slaves, or more than 3000 slaves, then the sun family can make trouble at any time. "


    "Enough to affect local stability."


    Guo Jia said solemnly, "so when it comes to the slave trade, it also needs to be regulated. Otherwise, once there is a problem, it will lead to disaster. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, her brows rose.


    Before that, he thought about the slave trade. After all, it was a way to transfer domestic power. We can transfer the power of the aristocratic families to foreign countries, so that these aristocratic families, or businessmen, can go abroad to capture slaves and make money.


    However, Zhang Xiu forgot that the slave trade also brought some risks.


    As Guo Jia mentioned.


    Once a family controls more than a thousand slaves, it is enough to threaten the place. In fact, let alone a thousand people, even three or five hundred people, this is not a weak force. Because slaves mainly come from prisoners of war. When it comes to prisoners of war, they are all people who can fight on the battlefield.These people are not simple.


    It can''t be taken lightly.


    Zhang Xiu changed her mind and asked: "since fengxiao has raised the problem of slave trade, what solution does fengxiao have?"


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and replied, "I would like to report back to your majesty. In order to solve this potential threat, we can only order the slave merchants to register the slaves."


    "In fact, it should start from the imperial court. The imperial court registered merchants who bought slaves in large quantities. When these merchants bought slaves back, traded them, or took them as their own, they had to register or report them to the higher authorities. "


    "Level by level registration."


    "Of course, there is no need to register the sale of one or two slaves. After all, it is too complicated. If the slave trade involves more than 100 people, it must be registered for verification. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes were sharp and said solemnly: "in addition, the imperial court ordered that any family or businessman who owned more than 500 slaves must report to the imperial court. Otherwise, once the number of hidden slaves is found out, there will be no amnesty. In this way, even if there are big families with slaves, everything is under control. "


    "Good, good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed approval in her eyes.


    As long as they have no ulterior motives, they will go to the local Yamen to register for verification. In this way, the imperial court mastered the situation of large-scale slaves in various places, so as not to lose control.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "according to filial piety, a big threat has been solved. In addition, this battle broke the Dichi County, and the plan of fengxiao contributed a lot. This time, the first merit of fengxiao should be recorded. "


    Guo Jia shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, if General Zhao and general Gan hadn''t been calm in commanding this battle, they would not have been able to win the county seat of Dichi county. My minister just gave me an idea, which is not worth mentioning."


    "You don''t have to be modest," Zhang said


    Guo Jia said nothing more.


    Anyway, how to reward? It''s Zhang Xiu''s business. He won''t get involved.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "the imperial court will not give you less rewards. After the end of the war, we will pay a reward for what we have done. " After a pause, Zhang Xiu asked, "fengxiao, when you wrote, you said you wanted to examine the officers and men of Kushan state. Now, how much do you know about Kushan? "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, the Kushan kingdom is as powerful as our great Qin. In particular, the territory of Kushan is extremely vast, even though we in Daqin are not as broad as that of Kushan. The strength of this country is the enemy of our great Qin Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s talk about it in detail."


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia responded respectfully.

 Chapter 1187

    Guo Jia said solemnly, "Your Majesty, according to my minister, the king of Kushan kingdom is named weisudiva. According to the description of the officers and men of the Kushan Kingdom, the Kushan Empire actually began to weaken and even disintegrate when vesuvativa ascended the throne, and all the vassal states in the country left one after another. "


    "At that time, people thought that Vasudeva had great ambition and little ability."


    "There is no way to reverse the decline."


    "Even, it can only accelerate the disintegration of Kushan."


    Guo Jia said: "but just over ten years ago, the monarch of Kushan Kingdom, Wei sudiva, suddenly seemed to be a different person. His ability to govern suddenly changed greatly. In our opinion, all of a sudden, there is a feeling that governing a country is like cooking a small dish. "


    "In weisudiva, she developed disorderly, promoted virtuous and virtuous people, dismissed corrupt officials, and even dealt with the nobles of Kushan, so that Kushan, a powerful country with profound foundation, soon regained its birth opportunity."


    "As a result, the national strength is getting stronger day by day."


    "Today, the strength of Kushan''s army is no less than one million. Its main army is north-south. Today, the whole Kushan kingdom is directly annexing the former vassal states. "


    "There is no vassal state in Kushan, only states and counties like ours."


    "Only in this way can the Kushan rule the north and the south."


    Guo Jia''s eyes were sharp, and said: "today''s Kushan state occupies the former Dawan state, Dayue family, Loulan and other countries, with a vast territory and strength no less than that of our Daqin. Modi, the head of a state in Kushan, is not a real general in Kushan. "


    "Interesting, interesting!"


    Zhang Xiu heard, the corners of her mouth rose, but her eyes had a high morale.


    He is not afraid of challenges.


    It''s a lot of fun to fight with heaven; it''s a lot of fun to fight with earth; it''s a lot of fun to fight with people. Zhang Xiu first destroyed Tokugawa Jiakang, and now she fights with Kushan empire. She is not tired, but full of fighting spirit.


    Zhang Xiu knew about the Kushan state.


    In history, the Kushan kingdom is on the verge of collapse at present, that is, during the reign of vesuva. This was the last monarch of the Kushan empire.


    Now, it''s changing.


    The reason is that Zhang Xiu doesn''t care, because it doesn''t have any meaning.


    Zhang Xiu only knows that the Kushan Kingdom now provokes Daqin, and even goes to war with Daqin. So now, Zhang Xiu has to wipe out Kushan. He wants to destroy Wei sudiva, and let Wei sudiva see Daqin''s soldiers.


    This is fundamental.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s fighting spirit, Guo Jia knew Zhang Xiu''s character, so he said: "Your Majesty, the strength of Kushan country can''t be underestimated. Today, the people of Kushan, who call themselves visudiva, are all called Kushan emperor. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "emperor guishuang, when my army arrives, beat him as guishuang''s younger brother. In front of Daqin, even if the Kushan kingdom is strong and prosperous, it is not enough to see it. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, we need to be prepared to attack Kushan now. In my opinion, we can make preparations from three aspects in order to fight this battle well. "


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what are the three aspects?"


    Guo Jia said: "first, to inquire about the Kushan kingdom."


    "It''s the so-called" know yourself and know your enemy, you can win a hundred battles. Even now, we know a lot about Kushan through the examination of the officers and soldiers of Kushan kingdom. But the news is only the shallowest, far from enough. "


    "Now, we need the royal guards to take action."


    "Send more royal guards to sneak into Kushan from the western regions to inquire about the news of Kushan. No matter the local conditions and customs, the geographical location, the deployment of troops, or even the arrangement of people to lurk. "


    Guo Jia continued: "in a word, we must have the detailed information of Kushan. Only in this way can we really ensure that we can go to war with the Kushan Kingdom and keep forging ahead. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "what fengxiao said is true. In this case, it is really necessary to make such arrangements. A war involves the life and death of countless children, so we can''t make fun of it. The more prepared we are, the more fortunate it will be for a war to end in the shortest possible time. "


    Guo Jia said, "what your majesty said is true."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the second point?"


    Guo Jia replied: "to your majesty, my second proposal is to promote the reform of weapons. This time we went to war with Modi, we captured the cannons. We don''t have such weapons now. Next, to go to war with Kushan, we must equip such weapons on a large scale. "


    "With such weapons, we are not afraid of each other''s cannons when we fight with Kushan."


    "Your Majesty has arranged for the workers to come."


    "When the Ministry of work and the Mohist people arrive, they must study the cannons as soon as possible and make some weapons as soon as possible. Even if you can''t make a cannon, you must have a weapon that can make a Kushan cannon. "


    Guo Jia said, "this is my suggestion. Weapons must keep up."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the innovation of weapons really needs to be carried out. And this time, I also have some ideas about weapons. When Hu Mo and others arrive, there will be an innovation in our weapons. The future war will also change. "Nowadays, Zhang Xiu wants to innovate her weapons.


    He''s going to make grenades and mines.


    This is the most basic weapon.


    Without guns, machine guns and other weapons, grenades, mines and other weapons alone are extremely powerful.


    When Guo Jia heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he didn''t go deep into it. He said once again, "my third suggestion is that this time I will fight against Kushan, which is a national war. I need to go all out."


    "Domestically, the cabinet needs to publicize the power of Kushan state and its threat to Daqin. Let the people of the whole Qin Dynasty know and hate the Kushan, so as to win the hearts of the people. "


    "Let Baixin know that your Majesty''s leading troops to attack Kushan is for the safety of thousands of people in the Qin Dynasty."


    "It''s for the long-term stability of the Qin Dynasty."


    Guo Jia talked with great eloquence and once again said: "especially this battle involves fighting with Kushan. Your majesty can also issue an imperial edict to call on the powerful families of businessmen in the world to participate in this war. "


    "All the powerful families who took part in the attack on Kushan went deep into the country and captured the Kushan people. Once captured, they are all at the disposal of the powerful families. In addition, Daqin also gave awards. "


    "This award is not limited to money, titles, and official positions."


    "The imperial court encouraged the powerful families in China to take part in the war."


    Guo Jia said: "such a practice means that all the people are soldiers. Give full play to the domestic power. In this way, it will also reduce our pressure. "


    "Brilliant plan!"


    When Zhang Xiu heard Guo Jia''s plan, she looked approachable and said, "it''s really a good plan to call on the powerful families in China to take part in the war with money, titles and official positions as rewards. In this way, we can not only share our pressure, but also weaken the power of kusana. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, however, there are also flaws in this strategy."


    Zhang Xiu asked: "what defect?"


    Guo Jia replied, "because it was by taking prisoners in exchange for titles and money. With this one, then there may be people who are desperate to create false victories in exchange for benefits. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "now that we know it, we just need to work out a good plan, and we are not afraid to fake it in exchange for war merit. Once discovered, it is not only the execution of the parties, but also the involvement of nine ethnic groups. I don''t believe it. Under such a high-pressure policy, people dare to take risks. "


    "Your majesty


    Guo Jia flattered.


    What he said just now was to ask Zhang Xiu to put forward a disposal plan.


    Only in this way can we avoid future troubles.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, however, some soldiers entered the barracks and reported: "I would like to inform your majesty that Hu Mo is asking for a meeting with someone."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In fact, it didn''t take long for Zhang Xiu to return. Hu Mo and his party arrived in Dichi county. This speed, even if it is Zhang Xiu, also a little surprised.


    Soldiers to inform, time is not long, Hu Mo and his party entered.


    However, Hu Mo is now in the dust.


    A haggard face.


    From Chang''an to Liangzhou, Hu Mo and his party were on their way at full speed. Sometimes they even traveled day and night, even at night. That is to say, when I couldn''t hold on, I just stopped to rest all night and keep on going.


    However, in the eyes of Hu Mo and others, there is a strong thirst for knowledge.


    From Zhang Xiu''s letters, they know the existence of cannons, so now they arrive one by one. Although they are extremely tired, they are extremely excited and looking forward to seeing cannons.

 Chapter 1188

    Hu Mo took a deep breath and bowed to him: "I''m Hu Mo, see you."


    "See your majesty!"


    The rest of the Mohists and the Ministry of industry saluted one after another.


    Their clothes are very shabby. After all, they wake up all the way and travel day and night. No matter how good their clothes are, they can''t stand the long journey. Even on the people, there is a faint taste, which makes people frown slightly.


    Zhang Xiu was aware of it and said, "it''s hard for you to come all the way. But when it comes to artillery research, we need to cultivate our spirit and a clear mind. Now, you all go down to wash and rest. I''ll see you again tomorrow morning. "


    Hu Mo couldn''t wait to say: "Your Majesty, our spirit is very good. We don''t need to rest."


    "Sire, we don''t need a rest."


    "We are very sober."


    "Your Majesty, please believe us. We must be very sober and rational."


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, Mohist craftsmen kept on talking.


    Everyone''s eyes reflect light. They want to see the cannon immediately. Then they disassemble it and study the structure and manufacture of the cannon carefully.


    This is the spirit of craftsman.


    It is with such a spirit of inquiry that these Mohist craftsmen can produce one weapon after another and more devices.


    Zhang Xiu looked at this group of people, some moved, but also some sad.


    These craftsmen are very lovely.


    One by one, they dragged their tired bodies, but they did not care about their own situation. They wanted to see the cannon immediately, and then began to study. But just like this, Zhang Xiu can''t agree, because today''s group of people are exhausted and need a good rest.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, his own soldiers entered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "take Hu Mo and others down, so that they can be served. Let them wash their clothes, have a good meal and have a good rest. "


    "Here it is


    The soldier got the order and motioned Hu Mo to go out.


    Hu Mo sees Zhang Xiu''s order, but he can''t refuse it. He can only thank Zhang Xiu, and then turns back with the others.


    After this group of people retired, Pang Tong said with emotion: "after so many years, although Hu Mo has been successful, even though he is in a high position, there is still no change. The same is true of the Mohist children who entered the Ministry of industry. These people are all craftsmen immersed in the production of utensils. These people are admirable. "


    Guo Jia echoed: "what a great man said is true. Hu Mo and others are indeed worthy of respect."


    Zhang Xiu said: "Hu Mo and others have their own things to do. But now, you have a lot of things to do Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and others and said, "Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and Zhao Yun listen to the order."


    "I''m here!"


    Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and Zhao yunqi should go down.


    All three looked solemn.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the three of you, each of you, will dispatch troops to fight, lead the army to continue to advance westward, and wipe out the guishuang thieves in Zhangye and Jiuquan. After cleaning up the soldiers of Kushan state, the three armies were stationed at the border of Daqin. When the artillery is properly arranged and new weapons are developed, I will personally visit the Daqin border. "


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and Zhang Ren agreed to come down.


    It''s not difficult to wipe out the Kushan soldiers everywhere. After all, Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and Zhang Ren have the ability to handle things well by themselves.


    But next, we have to fight against Kushan, so the three armies work together.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Wang Yue, saying: "Wang Yue, when it comes to inquiring about the situation, you need the cooperation of the royal guards. Your royal guards should be sent out as soon as possible to find out the situation of Kushan. In particular, we must be clear about the areas where we hand over, and there should be no mistakes. "


    "I understand


    Wang Yue nodded solemnly with a solemn look.


    He has been in charge of the Royal Guards for many years, and he has always been devoted to seeking information. Up to now, to find out the situation of Kushan, we need to be unfamiliar. After all, it is a foreign country with different places and different soil and water, which will be more difficult.


    Zhang Xiu arranged all kinds of things, and then relaxed a little. However, in the case of grenades and mines, Zhang Xiu took out the ink, paper and inkstone and drew them directly, and then showed the production method, as well as the production process and steps.


    A day is fleeting.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    When Zhang Xiu gets up early for morning exercise, he has not had breakfast yet, and soldiers have come to report it. Hu Mo and his Mohist children ask for a meeting. After hearing this, Zhang Xiu didn''t answer for the moment. At the end of morning exercise, Zhang Xiu went back to the army tent and ordered people to bring breakfast and Hu Mo and others.


    Hu Mo and others enter, seeing that Zhang Xiu is having a meal, but it is a little embarrassed.


    They came early.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu looked up at Hu Mo and other people and asked, "as soon as you arrived in the morning, you came outside my camp. Did you ever have breakfast? If you haven''t had breakfast yet, have dinner here. ""Thank you, long en, but I have already had breakfast."


    Hu Mo bowed to answer.


    Now Hu Mo is a little embarrassed. After all, it was too early for him to come with people in the early morning. So that Zhang Xiu began to eat.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu said, "if that''s the case, wait until I finish my meal."


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo and others responded directly.


    After a while, Zhang Xiu finished, looked at Hu Mo and said, "you should all know about the cannon."


    "I know!"


    Hu Mo rubbed his hands and could not wait to say: "Your Majesty, we already know. Now, we are all ready, looking forward to cracking the Kushan cannons and making our own cannons. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what is involved now is not only artillery, but also hand grenades and mines that I have figured out. These two weapons are also urgently needed in the next war. "


    Hu Mo asked, "Your Majesty, what is a grenade? What are mines? "


    Zhang Xiu took out the manufacturing process and flow chart of grenades and mines from the desk, handed it to Hu Mo, and ordered: "the research of artillery needs you to dismantle the real object for research, which should not be difficult. However, there are detailed descriptions of grenades and mines, which should be very simple. You can develop them directly and then test them. "


    Hu Mo took it over and quickly scanned it.


    As a craftsman, Hu Mo is concerned about the technological process. Seeing that the technological process of grenades and mines is not complicated, he is also relieved. He didn''t know about grenades and mines, but he knew how difficult it was to make.


    Hu Mo assured: "sire, it is not difficult to make grenades and mines. We can develop it in three days at most. But can such a small object work? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "although grenades and mines are small objects on the battlefield. But it can make a big difference. Even these two weapons, to some extent, are far more effective than cannons. At least under current conditions. So you have to develop these two weapons first. After the research is clear, mass production will be carried out. "


    "Here it is


    Hu and Mo should go down immediately.


    For Hu Mo and his Mohist children, with the direction, manufacturing technology and process, it is not difficult to make grenades and mines.


    Hu Mo was most interested in cannons. He said again, "Your Majesty, when can we touch cannons?"


    "Now!"


    Zhang Xiu answered, and called the soldiers, let the soldiers with Hu Mo and others to shelve the artillery warehouse.


    In order to let Hu Mo and others study, they can only draw out a cannon.


    Only in this way can we study it clearly.


    In fact, the cannon is not complicated. The most difficult thing is to make the bore and barrel, which is the most complicated. But Zhang Xiu believes that such a thing can''t defeat Hu Mo and others.

 Chapter 1189

    Hu Mo and others came to the warehouse barracks where the cannons were placed. They saw the cannons placed well. One by one, they touched the cannons'' cannons, even lowered their heads and carefully watched the internal structure of the cannons. They all looked like curious babies.


    These people are particularly curious about the artillery.


    So I studied it carefully.


    "Lord Hu, the structure of this cannon is not very complicated in my opinion. As long as we have made a mold and poured it with molten iron, we can also make the same cannon. "


    Some of the craftsmen took the lead.


    "I should have no problem. In my opinion, the manufacture of this cannon is not very complicated. Especially now, when we forge weapons, we no longer use ordinary bellows for calcination, but use coal and stone for calcination. This coal is so hot that steel can melt. Once poured out, the hardness is stronger. The cannon I made will be more durable. "


    Another one followed.


    The rest of the craftsmen expressed their opinions one after another.


    Most of the craftsmen, after studying for a while, think that they can make cannons, because it is not a complicated object, they can make cannons.


    When Hu Mo heard what they said, he also laughed.


    It''s best to be able to make it.


    Hu Mo picked up a shell, carefully disassembled it, studied it, and understood the development plan of the shell. This kind of cannonball production is not a very complicated process. It can be easily made.


    "Since you all think it''s not difficult, let''s start to work out the manufacturing process and allocate the devices we need to make," Hu said


    At present, Hu Mo and others assigned tasks.


    When the arrangement for the cannon was made properly, Hu Mo said again: "the cannon needs to be made, but the most urgent thing is the grenade and mine ordered by your majesty. These two weapons need to be carried out immediately. In today''s military, there are enough raw materials for us to make. So now we make these two weapons for your Majesty''s review. "


    "Here!"


    All of us should go down together.


    When they came back, they had learned about grenades and mines, and about the production of two weapons in Liucheng.


    So I don''t think it''s very difficult.


    Hu Mo saw that everyone should think about it, and suddenly said: "the cannon is on hold for the time being. Now it involves grenades and mines. We all get materials and make them separately. After that, the filter is carried out. In the end, the best weapon will be presented to your majesty for inspection. "


    Everyone nodded in agreement.


    As a matter of fact, this is what craftsmen are used to, because they have to make their own plans. A simple superficial plan has no real effect. Even if it is too much hype, it will be in vain.


    After Hu Mo went to the warehouse to get the materials, together with all the craftsmen, he built a separate workshop at the rear of the barracks, and then took the materials and began to make them.


    No matter it''s a mine or a grenade.


    By noon, craftsmen had made grenades and mines.


    Hu Mo itself is also the completion of production.


    However, Hu Mo did not immediately select, he let others continue to research production, and Hu Mo himself, in the process of re research, to avoid mistakes.


    Until evening, in the evening.


    All the people brought by Hu Mo have successfully developed grenades and mines.


    Hu Mo said: "now, the weapons made by each party are marked with their names, and then experiments are carried out. Let''s start with the grenade experiment, which is a relatively good weapon. "


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    Starting from Hu Mo, one by one, the grenades were dropped one by one and exploded. Some people''s grenades didn''t explode after landing. Some people''s grenades have exploded before they hit the ground. Some people drop grenades and explode, but they just have no explosive force


    Successful, but also the majority.


    Hu Mo selected the best grenade one by one, and according to his experience, he re compiled the production and technological process, because the process given by Zhang Xiu may not be the one they are most used to.


    At the end of the grenade screening, Hu Mo conducted another mine experiment.


    Mine experiments need gravity suppression.


    Hu Mo and others chose to go with sheep. After the mines were laid, the sheep went to trample. When the sheep stepped on the mine, there was an explosion, and the sheep were killed on the spot. Although there are also mistakes, but this is a normal situation, because this is in the experimental stage.


    It''s late at night when everything is busy.


    Hu Mo and all the craftsmen under his command were very tired, but their faces were full of excitement.


    Because it''s done.


    They made grenades and mines.


    Of course, being able to complete the production in such a short period of time, on the one hand, it benefited from Hu Mo and others'' superb skills, on the other hand, Zhang Xiu explained the production process and the proportion of gunpowder formula clearly.Only in this way can it be completed in a short time.


    Hu Mo looked around at the tired people and said with a smile: "you guys, grenades and mines have been completed. These two weapons are really powerful. Easy to slack off, small and powerful. Tomorrow morning, I will go to your camp and ask for your help. Now, you''ve been busy all day. You''re tired. Go and have a rest. "


    When they heard this, they were all happy.


    It''s a sense of accomplishment after completion.


    This is unprecedented.


    "Mr. Hu, although we are tired, we still have spirit. Next, I''m going to study cannons. Study it carefully, and then consider the matter of rest. I''ll have a rest when I''m tired. "


    In the crowd, someone spoke.


    "Yes, I''m going to study it again."


    "Compared with grenades and mines, this cannon is not too complicated, but it will definitely take longer time. I will study this cannon again. "


    "Yes, yes, study first."


    ¡­¡­


    One after another, they all spoke with high morale. Even though their faces are tired, for them, if they don''t study such a novel cannon immediately, their hearts are always hanging in the air. They have to study it.


    When Hu Mo saw this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    He doesn''t care about these people, because all this is extremely normal. Hu Mo waved his hand and said: "you should study the cannon. Do it yourself. Don''t make it too late. I''m going to meet your majesty tomorrow morning, so I''ll have a rest first. "


    With that, he turned and left.


    The people left behind, one by one, you said a word to me, but they began to prepare to study cannons. Cannons are different from grenades and mines. It''s OK to study them by one person, and all people work together. In addition, Hu Mo had assigned tasks before, so people gathered together to discuss and discuss how to make cannons.


    At night, the lights are bright.


    One after another''s comments, even accompanied by occasional quarrels, reverberate in the night sky.


    This night, is doomed to no sleep.

 Chapter 1190

    The next day, early in the morning.


    This morning, Hu Mo didn''t come to Zhang Xiu''s camp as he did yesterday. When the sun was up and the sun was shining, he took the grenades and mines he had made to the Chinese army.


    This time, ten grenades and three mines were carried.


    Hu Mo came outside the camp tent. After being informed by the soldiers, he went into the camp and saw Zhang Xiu. After saluting, he quickly reported: "Your Majesty, we have made grenades and mines. Please review them."


    With that, he handed over a mouthful of the box.


    In this box, he brought ten grenades and three mines.


    Zhang Xiu was a little surprised.


    It''s only a long time, but in a short day, Hu Mo and his craftsmen have already made grenades and mines, which can be said to be extremely fast.


    Zhang Xiu took the box, opened it and saw the neatly placed mines and grenades. She nodded and asked, "have you ever tested these grenades and grenades?"


    Hu Mo said: "report to your majesty, it has been tested. However, your majesty, please examine it again. "


    "All right!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time, let the generals in the army open their eyes and see the power of mines and grenades. This weapon is a very important strategic weapon for Daqin. "


    "Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When the soldiers entered, Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers to send orders, informing Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Xun Yu, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and other civil and military generals to come together to discuss the affairs of the Chinese army.


    When they arrived, they stood still.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hide it and said, "before, the most powerful strategic weapon in our army was gunpowder. You have all seen the use and power of gunpowder. But after today, we have two more weapons in the Qin army. Facts speak louder than words!


    Zhang Xiu heard people suspicious words, also not anxious, hand grenade, introduced the situation of the grenade. This hand grenade is a typical wooden handle hand grenade. At the back end of the wooden handle of the hand grenade, there is a back cover to cover it.


    When the back cover is opened, there is a special pull ring inside. As long as the pull ring is pulled and the delay is about five seconds, the grenade will explode.


    After introducing the general situation, Zhang Xiu pulled the pull ring and threw the grenade out of her hand.


    Bang!


    The grenade passed an arc in the air and fell to the ground.


    This scene is in the eyes of all.


    Because the grenades didn''t explode immediately, they all chuckled. But the next moment, only a loud bang was heard, the grenade burst, the soil flew, and a pit appeared on the ground.


    Under the impact of huge force, the splashing soil even falls far around.


    Within a radius of one foot, they are all affected.


    "Hiss!"


    Seeing this, Guo Jia took a breath and asked, "Your Majesty, this grenade is really powerful. Can such grenades be mass produced? "


    He saw the power of the grenade.


    This weapon is easy to carry. It can be used both in attack and retreat defense.


    The rest of them are confused at the moment.


    Because they saw the scene of grenade explosion and witnessed the strength of grenade. Originally, everyone''s heart was skeptical, but facts speak louder than words. Now the scene of grenade explosion surprised everyone.


    In particular, Xun Yu, Pang Tong, Guo Jia, Gao Lan, Zhang Ren and Gan Ning are all smart people. When they see the explosion of a grenade, they know the use of it.


    It has a big effect.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this grenade is easy to make and can be mass produced. Just so, I said it was another sharp weapon. I still have nine grenades here. Let me try again. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu kept taking out the grenades and throwing them into the distance. Just listen to the rumbling sound, one after another, the ground in front of us is full of smoke and dust, the soil is splashing, and there are many small pits on the ground, all of which are exploded by hand grenades.


    Guo Jia changed his words and said again, "well, what about land mines?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "mines are clumsy, but their function is not small."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu took out the mine and gave a general description of the situation of the mine. Then, soldiers were arranged to bury the mines in the ground. On top of the mine, a thin layer of soil was laid.


    Zhang Xiu, like Hu Mo and others, also adopted the way of sheep trampling. When a few sheep go forward together, they step on the land mine. There is an explosion on the ground.


    The soil flew, and the sheep in the center were blown out directly, and the surrounding sheep also fell to the ground. These sheep can''t live as soon as they see. They are already bleeding.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and asked: "you have seen the situation of mines and grenades. How about this weapon? ""Powerful, really powerful!"


    Guo Jia took the lead.


    He didn''t expect that there was such a sharp weapon in the world. A simple explosion was so powerful.


    Others, too, agreed.


    The faces were shocked and full of joy and expectation. Because such a lethal weapon belongs to Daqin.


    This is good for Daqin.


    After listening to the praise, Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and fell on Hu Mo again, saying: "now the hand grenades and mines have been successfully developed. You can select some people from the craftsmen, and then select some auxiliary soldiers from the army to make hand grenades and mines. Today, these two weapons must be produced in large quantities. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo nodded.


    For Hu Mo, this is not a difficult thing.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "in addition to that, the development of cannons should also seize the time. There is not much time left for us. The artillery must be developed before the war with Kushan. "


    "I will live up to your Majesty''s great trust, and it will be completed."


    The look on Hu Mo''s face was also extremely serious. Because after he saw the power of grenades and mines, he knew better that artillery bombardment was also extremely severe, which had to equip the Qin army to ensure its combat effectiveness.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    At this time, Wang Yue came in a hurry.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "Your Majesty, there is a man from outside the camp. He wants to see your majesty. He has come to complain."

 Chapter 1191

    Zhang Xiu nodded, waved to let the people back down, and took Wang Yue to the direction of the big account of the Chinese army. After grenades and mines were made, everyone was surprised and had to digest them for a while.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t care about this.


    He believes that the emergence of mines and grenades will make people think about the way to fight in the future.


    This is what people have to think about.


    As Zhang Xiu walked along, she asked, "Wang Yue, who is outside the camp?"


    Wang Yue said: "in reply to your majesty, the name of the stranger in the camp is Kong Yan, the 21st grandson of Confucius, and his father Kong Yu, the 20th grandson of Confucius. His uncle is Kong Rong, a great Confucian


    When Zhang Xiu heard that her brows rose, she found that it was the descendants of Confucius. We should know that Confucius is from the state of Lu, even today''s Confucius family is also in Qingzhou. But how did Kong Yan, the twenty-first grandson of Confucius, come to Liangzhou.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what is he doing here?"


    Wang Yue replied, "report back to your majesty. Kong Yan sued Mali in Dichi county."


    Zhang Xiu said, "who is Ma Li? Kong Yan, as the 21st grandson of Confucius, can be treated well wherever he goes. He sued Mali for what. "


    Wang Yue explained: "Mali is the head of a big clan in Dichi County of Liangzhou. He was born from Di people. In the county seat of Dichi, Mali''s prestige is very high. "


    "First of all, Ma Li is in his early 40s. He is quite righteous and fair. In addition, Ma''s family has prestige in Dichi county. Even many people don''t go to the government to judge things, but go to Ma Li to deal with them."


    "Ma Li is able to deal with it fairly."


    "There was no partiality."


    "Although Mali was born in Di, he was devoted to sages. Therefore, Ma Li also read books of sages. As the patriarch of the Ma family, he never bullied the people. From this point of view, Ma Li is really good. "


    Wang Yue talked about Ma Li.


    As a matter of fact, he was also glad that he received Kong Yan''s lawsuit against Ma Li. Now he is in the county seat of Dichi County, and he is getting to know the situation of Dichi county. He just happened to know the situation of Mali.


    Unexpectedly, Kong Yan came to the door.


    Just like this, Wang Yue could know the situation of Mali like the back of his hand.


    Zhang xiudao said: "you haven''t made it clear about Mali, especially you just said that judging from Mali''s direction, he is a good man. But Ma Li, what''s the problem? "


    Wang Yue explained: "to your majesty, Ma Li''s question is about his personal life. Mali has a high prestige among the Di people, and even Mali has a status of offering sacrifices to gods. "


    "He claims to have the protection of the gods. He is the spokesman of the gods in Dichi County, and is specially responsible for offering sacrifices to the gods."


    "Of course, it didn''t start with Mali. Ma Jiazu has always been a God''s wish. Of course, if it''s just like this, it doesn''t matter. It''s not a profound influence. "


    "Even Mali has made great contributions to the country."


    "After all, because of the adjustment of Mali, many problems were solved and many disputes disappeared."


    At this point, Wang Yue''s eyes became dignified and continued: "but the problem is that the Ma family is involved in a bad habit. That is, in Dichi County, almost the vast majority of the people believe in the gods and respect the Ma family


    "The existing bad habit is the first night of a married woman in Dichi County, which is dedicated to Mali. When it means to dedicate it to Mali, it means to dedicate it to the God of heaven and get the protection of the God of heaven. "


    "Kong Yan is here."


    "Kong Yan believes that Mali deliberately humiliated the women in Dichi county. Therefore, Kong Yan came to see his Majesty in person, hoping that his majesty can deal with this matter and ask for justice for thousands of women in Dichi county. "


    Wang Yue sighed: "it''s quite ridiculous. The so-called woman in marriage, the first time to Ma Li, you can get the protection of God, it is ridiculous, it is stupid


    Zhang Xiu was also shocked.


    What kind of bullshit is this? It''s the first night.


    Zhang Xiu''s face cooled down and began to think about solutions. Of course, if Mali was vicious, and he killed innocent people and oppressed the people, it would be very easy for Zhang Xiu to deal with him.


    The problem is that Ma Li is fair and just, and he is devoted to guiding people to be good. He can''t be said to be a bad man. In particular, women in Dichi County voluntarily gave their first night to Mali.


    This is a bad habit. Zhang Xiu doesn''t like it.


    But the people of Dichi county are used to it and even proud of it.


    It''s not easy to handle!


    Zhang Xiu''s heart frowned.


    Moreover, the first night of the offering of this thing, is not made by Ma Li, but Ma Li inherited the ancestors. Since the ancestors of Mali, it has been carried out.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "go and invite Kong Yan in."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to go down immediately.


    When the soldiers went to inform him, Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, it involves thousands of people in Dichi County, especially Mali. If we want to deal with Mali now, it will cause a great disturbance. Moreover, Mali also inherited the patriarchal system, and there was no serious violation of the law. I don''t think it''s easy to deal with this matter. "Zhang xiudao said: "I know it''s not easy to deal with this matter, but anyway, I''ll see Kong Yan first and then consider the specific method."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue said no more.


    Not long after, Kong Yan entered the Chinese army.


    Kong Yan''s age is about 30 years old. He has a pretty face. After he entered, he folded his hands and arched his hands and said, "Cao min Kong Yan, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    "Give me a seat!"


    Zhang Xiu gave another order.


    When the Chamberlain presented his seat, Kong Yan said thanks to Zhang Xiu, lifted his robe and sat down.


    "I don''t know about Zhang Yanxiu. But do you have any suggestions for Mali''s disposal plan? "


    Kong Yan, biting his teeth and looking indignant, said, "Your Majesty, the thousands of people in Dichi county are your people. When it comes to their interests, the grassroots believe that it is difficult to explain to the people without killing Ma Li. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "but Ma Li has high prestige among the common people. If you kill Mali, it''s not easy to explain to the people. "


    Holding his head high, Kong Yan said in a voice: "the two evils are the least, and the two benefits are the most important. Nowadays, when women in Dichi County get married, they all spend the night at Mali''s house and dedicate themselves to Mali. This is ridiculous. Even the people in Dichi county think it is their glory. You can''t just ignore Mali because the people are ghosts and gods. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "no matter how Ma Li is, should he be executed?"


    "Yes


    Kong Yan''s big sleeve flicked and said, "it''s bad for ethics. We must be careful. The people in Dichi County don''t understand it. It doesn''t mean they have to accommodate them. Such bad habits must be stopped directly. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, eyes open and close, thinking about the disposal of things.


    Ma Li was known by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu also knows about ghosts and gods.


    Now to deal with it, there must be an entry point. Of course, Zhang Xiu does not agree with direct killing. Because in Zhang Xiu''s view, it only involves a ridiculous and eccentric bad habit, which can be solved directly.


    After all, this kind of thing is not forced by Mali, but voluntary by the people. It''s certainly not right to say that Mali is OK. So what Zhang Xiu wants to do now is to solve the bad habits that the people believe in.


    To solve this bad habit, the key lies in Mali.


    Zhang Xiu had a plan in mind. When she had a solution in her heart, she said, "Wang Yue!"


    "I''m here!"


    Wang Yue answers with a fist.


    Zhang xiudao said: "immediately arrange people to pass the Edict and call Ma Li to the army. I want to see Mali in person. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue went to arrange it immediately.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Kong Yan again and said, "Kong Yan, it''s about Ma Li. When Ma Li arrives, you show your doubts and anger in front of him and question him face to face."


    Kong Yan said: "the grass people understand!"


    He really wanted to ask Ma Li why he fooled the people so much.


    Ma Li is damned.

 Chapter 1192

    In his heart, Kong Yan despises Ma Li. He is ready. Once Ma Li arrives, he must attack him and let him repent.


    Without criticizing Ma Li, he was a disciple of the Confucius family.


    Before Mali came, Kong Yan looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty has defeated the army of the Kushan Kingdom and recaptured Zhangye and Jiuquan. However, your majesty is still stationed in Dichi County, but does not withdraw. Why


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not polite to come but not to go. The Kushan Kingdom invaded the people of Daqin. Now, I have just destroyed the army that invaded the Qin Dynasty, but I have never entered Kushan to avenge myself. Under such circumstances, how can we withdraw our troops? "


    Kong Yan said: "Your Majesty, this is to enter the Kushan?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    "No, your majesty


    With a decent appearance, Kong Yan said: "Your Majesty, as the king of a country, should know the truth that if you are belligerent, you will die. Today, the great Qin Dynasty is prosperous, He Ping is prosperous, the country is peaceful and the people are in peace, and the life of the common people is excellent. However, the long-term war will surely drag down the people and bring losses to countless people. It''s not a good thing for the people to continue the war. Your majesty, please stop the war. "


    After a pause, Kong Yan said again: "what''s more, when is the time to repay each other''s grievances? Guishuang is coming. Your majesty has taught guishuang a lesson by destroying the army of guishuang. But now his majesty wants to kill him, so he starts war again. At that time, the Kushan kingdom will also fight with all its strength. If the two countries fight each other, they will lose countless. Your majesty, war is not a joke. It''s about death. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what you said in front of you is all nonsense. But in the end, you''re right. War really kills people. But the problem is that without war, Daqin would not be able to stand


    "The reason why Daqin is Daqin is not that Daqin pays attention to repaying good for evil, but that Daqin returns blood with blood."


    "If you dare to invade Daqin, you have to bear the consequences."


    "If you kill me, I will take revenge."


    "If guishuang sends troops to kill us now, we will wipe out guishuang''s troops, but we will kill them back without reciprocity. As for the Kushan, they will think that Daqin is weak and deceiving, and they will kill me again. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Daqin should not be offended, so we must kill him back and let guishuang know the lesson. It''s not about morality, but about morality. No one can offend Daqin. Those who offend will die! "


    Kong Yan frowned even more.


    This is not in line with his theory.


    The theory that Kong Yan learned should be to return good for bad, to stop killing with benevolence, not to stop killing with kindness.


    Kong Yan said, "Your Majesty, if you are belligerent, you will die."


    Zhang Xiu retorted directly: "but you have forgotten a word. If you forget war, you will be in danger. If a country fails to fight, it will eventually fall into a dangerous situation. "


    For Kong Yan, although he was born in the Kong family, he was a child of a famous family. However, people like Kong Yan are already stupid in reading. They don''t know that there is no benevolence, justice and morality between countries, but only intrigue and interest struggle.


    This is the norm between countries.


    Unfortunately, Kong Yan didn''t understand.


    Kong Yan just read an article on the surface and thought that good for bad.


    Kong Yan looked impatient. He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu, as the king of a country and the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, was so stubborn that he had to fight. He brushed his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty is so stubborn. Sooner or later, Daqin will be in trouble because of you."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Kong Yan, I want to ask you something. Since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, there have been constant wars. Have you ever heard of the complaints of the people? Have you ever seen that the people of the great Qin Dynasty were in dire straits. On the contrary, because of my continuous use of troops, Daqin not only made people rich, but also opened up territory. Daqin, for this reason, became more and more powerful. "


    Brush!


    Kong Yan''s face changed slightly.


    What Zhang Xiu said is a fact.


    Throughout these years, Daqin has been using its troops to destroy Wuhuan, defeat Caowei, and take over Wuzhou. Even now, it has destroyed the Kushan army that invaded Daqin. Daqin is also stronger and stronger in the Vietnam War, and has not been declining.


    Kong Yanna did not speak, no retort.


    Because facts speak louder than words.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Kong Yan, read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles. The great truth in this world is not as recorded in books. Things in the real world are extremely complicated and can not be explained in a simple sentence or two. As a child of the Kong family, you should be clear that the paper is shallow and you should practice it. The real experience in books is simple, and it needs your own experience. "


    Kong Yan hit it hit it mouth, did not speak.


    Zhang Xiu no longer talks much.


    He has already mentioned everything that needs to be mentioned. As for whether Kong Yan realized it or not, that''s Kong Yan''s business. As time went by, Wang Yue entered and reported, "Your Majesty, Mali has arrived."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Wang Yue informed him to go on, and immediately after that, he saw a middle-aged man in his thirties, strong and strong, striding in.This man is Ma Li.


    He had a face with Chinese characters, thick eyebrows and big eyes. At a glance, he felt upright. In particular, there is a faint smile on other faces, which makes people feel like a spring breeze and gives people a good impression.


    Mali''s dress is very particular. All his clothes are made of silk. After he entered, he bowed himself and said, "Cao min, Ma Li, meet your majesty. May your majesty live forever."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''ve brought you here today. It''s not that I want to see you. It''s the people in front of you who want to see you. His name is Kong Yan. He is a descendant of Confucius. He has something to ask for you. "


    At this time, Kong Yan was full of energy and asked aloud, "Ma Li, you are just a common man, but you lie about what God you are. You have accepted women''s flattery for many times. It''s heartless of you to do so. In fact, you''re doing dirty business under the pretext of God''s blessing. A man like you should be damned. "


    Ma Li was neither humble nor arrogant, and said, "Mr. Kong, I, Ma Li, do not force anyone to act. These people who come to my house are of their own free will. They are all devout and want to serve the gods. I''m just offering sacrifices as a God, acting instead of gods. "


    "Ridiculous


    Kong Yan said: "it''s ridiculous. You are full of nonsense. You are the one who bewitches the people by using the words of gods and monsters to bewitch the people and seek money wantonly


    As soon as the words changed, Kong Yan turned to look at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, please kill Ma Li."


    Ma Li said: "Your Majesty, Ma Li has never committed any crimes. This is the custom of our Dichi county. It has a long history. Mr. Kong doesn''t understand. I don''t ask for it. But it is not proper for Mr. Kong to impose his own principles on others. Your majesty, please be aware of it. "


    Zhang Xiu sat on the throne, shaking her head in her heart.


    Between Kong Yan and Ma Li, he made a decision. Kong Yan was just like a fledgling boy. He ran all the way without any wrist. In the end, he broke his head and blood.


    Ma Li was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was even more stable, showing no flaw and difficult to deal with.


    Kong Yan has to deal with Ma Li. No way.


    The expression on Zhang Xiu''s face, with a faint smile, eyes fell on Ma Li''s body and said: "Ma Li, as a God, I''m curious. Is there any miracle in your pulse? "


    All gods have their own miracles.


    Otherwise, it would be hard to be convincing, so the starting point of Zhang Xiu is to start with miracles. Only by letting Ma Li''s words break through, can we achieve the purpose of dealing with Ma Li, because Ma Li has no flaws in other aspects.


    You must attack your shield with your spear!


    This is the solution.

 Chapter 1193

    Ma Li frowned, but he frowned.


    Zhang Xiu asked him to explain the miracles, but the problem is that as a God himself, he clearly knows that there are no miracles in the world, and there are no real gods. He just acts in the name of gods.


    And he Mali himself, with the help of the identity of God''s sacrifice, constantly grabs the benefits, and constantly rises and falls on the budding girls.


    Even if Ma Li is clear, this is not appropriate.


    But he is a God''s sacrifice. In his capacity, it can''t be said that there is something wrong with the temple. Anyway, he has to keep going, he has to keep going.


    Now, Ma Li was forced to the edge. After taking a deep breath, he said, "tell your majesty, the miracles in Dichi county have always been there. It is because of the protection of God that thousands of people in Dichi county will not suffer from disaster. This is already the greatest miracle, the greatest manifestation. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    Ma Li is very eloquent. He can even say that.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "you mean that Dichi county will not suffer from disaster, not because I rule the world and favor the people. On the contrary, this inexplicable God sheltered the people? "


    Brush!


    Mali''s face changed greatly.


    He can''t dare to have a dispute with Zhang Xiu, more dare not and Zhang Xiu hard resistance. Let him and Zhang Xiu hard resistance, that is the old birthday star hanging, live impatiently.


    Ma Li thought a little, then quickly said: "Your Majesty, thousands of people in Dichi County, because of your Majesty''s administration, can people''s livelihood be rich, can have today''s good days. However, there are also reasons for God''s protection. Your majesty is the Lord, and God is the assistant. Only in this way can people live a good life. "


    Once again, Zhang Xiu said, "it''s a miracle that the people will not suffer. In that case, countless places in the central plains are peaceful and peaceful. Can I say that there are miracles everywhere in the Central Plains? "


    Ma Li hears speech, looked up again Zhang Xiu one eye.


    It seems that Zhang Xiu is aiming at him.


    If he said that there were miracles in the Central Plains, he would appear that he was too incompetent to have miracles. If there are no miracles in the Central Plains, then the central plains are so peaceful and the people are peaceful, then their own gods do not have much significance.


    This is the dilemma.


    Neither choice is appropriate.


    Ma Li took a deep breath and cheered up: "to your majesty, there are no miracles everywhere in the Central Plains. The reason why Dichi county has miracles is that for more than a hundred years, the gods have already arrived in Dichi county and started to protect it. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "but I heard that before Dichi county was attached to the great Qin Dynasty, before it was under my administration, it was in chaos, the people were in dire straits, life was hard, and even the situation of changing sons and eating things appeared. Is this the protection of God? "


    "If your God is omnipotent, he can save the people from hanging upside down. Why is it that when the people are in a difficult situation, they don''t see God''s miracles and let the people go through the days of hardship? "


    "On the contrary, when the country is peaceful and the people are in peace, your God suddenly appears to have made great contributions to the people."


    "I really don''t understand."


    When Zhang Xiu said this, her eyes were cold and she said in a deep voice: "in the territory of Daqin, except for the sects recognized by the imperial court, the rest of the witches worship ghosts and gods, all of them are licentious sacrifices, not recognized by the imperial court."


    "In particular, these sacrifices are all in the name of offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods, from which we can do something unspeakable."


    "That''s what you worship."


    "Not recognized by the court."


    "I''ve gone all over the country and never heard of any God who wants unmarried women to make their first sacrifice."


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "in the name of God, it''s for the purpose of defiling women and achieving the purpose of dirty heart. It''s really a sin that can''t be redeemed. Now, I''ll give you a chance to mend your ways and give you a good account of your crime. I can consider it at my discretion and spare your life. But if you don''t cooperate, don''t blame my sword for killing people. "


    Here, Zhang Xiu has been directly clear intention, he was too lazy to reorganize with Mali.


    Ma Li''s so-called miracles do not hold water.


    After hearing this, Kong Yan looked at Ma Li with hatred and said, "Your Majesty, Shengming, we will never allow such a person to harm the people and pollute women in the territory of the Qin Dynasty. Such people are scum. "


    Ma Lilian said: "Your Majesty, the grass people are wronged! The grass people offered sacrifices to the gods, but never made any overtures. Even in Dichi County, the grassroots constantly mediate the contradictions among the people, intending to resolve the disputes among the people and let them live a good life. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know about you. Put aside your sacrifice to God, under the pretext of God''s invasion of women, you do things for people, no one can pick out mistakes, you are a good person. "


    "If not, I would have killed you just because I violated the woman by offering sacrifices to God. So now, I''ll give you a chance. Now, for the last time, I will tell you honestly that I will not kill you and save your life. ""But if you are stubborn, I will send you on the road now."


    Zhang Xiu said, "do you understand?"


    Gudong!


    Ma Li swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked into Zhang Xiu''s eyes. For the first time, he had a trace of worry and fear.


    What to do?


    How should he choose?


    Ma Li''s heart, in fact, is to refuse to explain again, to carry to the end. Because he wanted to try again, but the man in front of him was Zhang Xiu. He was very eloquent, especially Zhang Xiu, the founder of the country. If what Zhang Xiu said is true, once he talks about him again, Zhang Xiu kills him, then he will have nothing.


    If you give an account directly, it''s a confession. Even if you don''t die, you have to peel off your skin.


    This is the dilemma of Mali.


    It''s a dilemma.


    No matter which option you choose, you have to pay a certain price.


    The weather in May was not too hot, but there were already fine beads of sweat on Mali''s forehead and back. He had a cold sweat on his back. There were big beads of sweat on his forehead, which ran across his cheek and spattered on the ground.


    At this moment, Mali felt as if heaven and man were fighting, and he was in a great dilemma.


    Zhang Xiu saw in the eye, but is sneer.


    He didn''t speak.


    Because under the imperial power, he believed that Mali would make a choice. In particular, the hesitation shown by Ma Li has proved everything. The so-called God, that is, a pretext for bluffing, is intended to defile these women.


    But Kong Yan was furious and said, "Ma Li, you damned bastard. You don''t call yourself God''s sacrifice. You represent God. Now, go and bury your God. As long as you dare to commit suicide and die for God, I admit that your God exists. "


    This is Kong Yan.


    He would like to see if Ma Li would dare to commit suicide. If Ma Li really dares to commit suicide, he will say he admires him. However, in Kong Yan''s view, Ma Li certainly did not dare to do so.

 Chapter 1194

    Ma Li''s cheek was twitching.


    His eyes were full of anxiety.


    He is good at home and good at Dichi county. He has prestige and status. Wherever he goes, he is respected by people. Even when he was walking on the road, some people wanted to send his daughter to his house so that he could show his miracles.


    Now, it is in trouble.


    Once upon a time, he was praised and revered by countless people because of his status as a god praying sacrifice. Now, he is in the dilemma of life and death because of God''s sacrifice.


    Ma Li''s heart, even regret, had known that today, he would never be involved in it.


    It''s long overdue.


    Now, it''s too late.


    Ma Li''s heart, after all, still did not dare to gamble. With a plop, he knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head and said, "Your Majesty, the grass people are guilty. The so-called God, in fact, does not exist. It''s just that the ancestors of the Ma family made a fool of people. In fact, there are no miracles. All this is false. "


    "Damn you, you son of a bitch!"


    When Kong Yan heard this, he stepped forward and kicked out.


    Bang!


    The foot pedals on Ma Li and makes a dull sound.


    The next moment, but listen to Kong Yan dull hum, his foot is not stable, stagger back, a stagger fell to the ground. But just now he kicked it, and Ma Li didn''t move, not affected at all. On the contrary, Kong Yan was a showy man without any martial arts skills. He was unstable after kicking up, so that he fell back.


    Kong Yan looks embarrassed.


    Ma Li knelt still and let him kick. On the contrary, he fell down.


    Kong Yan is not reconciled, and want to rush up to beat Mali, but he just ready to action, but listen to Zhang Xiu scolded: "enough!"


    In a word, Kong Yan stopped immediately.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Ma Li and says in a deep voice: "since you have told the truth, I have just said that as long as you tell the truth, I can consider opening up the net and not killing you. So I will not kill you. "


    Kong Yan got excited and retorted loudly: "Your Majesty, you can''t! Ma Li has committed a heinous crime. If he does not kill Ma Li, it will be hard to convince the people and calm down their anger. Please think twice. "


    What Ma Li did made Kong Yan extremely angry.


    Mali alone defiled countless women.


    However, Zhang Xiu is not willing to kill Ma Li now. However, Kong Yan is not willing to accept the result. Kong Yanduan is not satisfied with the way he went to the camp.


    In his excitement, Kong Yan knelt down and said in a loud voice, "if your majesty favors Ma Li and does not deal with Ma Li, then Cao min Kong Yan will kneel here and never get up."


    Zhang Xiu glances at Kong Yan, but she doesn''t pay attention to him.


    How to deal with Mali, he has his own consideration.


    There is no need to refer to Kong Yan''s opinion.


    In particular, Kong Yan, such a fledgling boy, is less comprehensive in considering things, and Zhang Xiu is even less likely to adopt them.


    Ma Li glanced at Kong Yan with anger in his eyes, but now he couldn''t control Kong Yan, and his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. For fear that Zhang Xiu would change her mind, he said: "Your Majesty, Ma Li pleads guilty. Ma Li has committed a crime and is willing to accept punishment. Just ask your majesty, for the sake of Ma Li''s mediation of numerous disputes and his contribution, to spare Ma Li this time. "


    "Plop!"


    Ma Li kowtowed to the ground.


    He just knocked his head on the ground, and his voice was loud, and his forehead was scratched immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "Ma Li, I can''t kill you. But now you have three things to do. If you accomplish these three things, I''ll spare your life, regardless of your past crimes. "


    "No, your majesty


    On hearing this, Kong Yan spoke again.


    He said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful. How can you make such a stupid decision? Please think twice."


    "Shut up


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    He looked at Kong Yan with sharp eyes, and there was a strong sense of killing in his sharp eyes. Zhang Xiu, who came out of a sea of corpses, was in a state of great anger, and his breath broke out, which made people fear.


    In particular, Kong Yan is a hairy boy.


    I didn''t go through a big battle.


    By Zhang Xiu low drink, feel Zhang Xiu that overflow out of the murderous, Kong Yan is completely afraid. Kong Yan shivered and did not speak. But Kong Yan''s heart, but still stubborn, he does not agree with Zhang Xiu''s disposal plan.


    He thought in his heart that when he returned to the Central Plains, when he returned to his home, he would not believe it and let Zhang Xiu be so unscrupulous.


    Ma Li''s heart is very happy.


    Anyway, Zhang Xiu doesn''t love him.


    Even if Zhang Xiu asked him to do something, such a thing could not be too difficult.


    Better than ever.Ma Li kowtowed to the ground with his head. He looked very grateful and said in a loud voice, "please tell me three things, even thirty things. Even more. As long as Mali is still alive, it will be done one by one. "


    Zhang Xiu raised an arc at the corner of her mouth and said, "are you serious?"


    "Seriously!"


    Ma Li answered.


    Now that he had let go of his worries, he said with certainty, "please show me the three things."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first thing for me is that you publicly announce the so-called God in front of all the people in Dichi county. It''s a myth. It''s useless for you to be a god of sacrifice. The people you worship do not exist. "


    Boom!!


    In Mali''s mind, it was like thunder.


    He had been kneeling on the ground, but now he heard Zhang Xiu''s words, and his whole body was shaking for a while, flopping to the ground. Immediately, Ma Li knelt down again, looking worried, and said, "Your Majesty, once the grass people announce in front of all the people that the so-called God is nonexistent and that I have deceived them. I''m afraid the grass people will be torn up. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "why don''t you want to?"


    The cold light in his eyes made Ma Li shiver. Ma Li thought that Zhang Xiunian would give him special treatment for his contribution to Dichi County, but now it seems that Zhang Xiu is extremely cruel.


    As soon as you make a move, you''ll get to the point.


    Although Kong Yan is young and vigorous, he is not a fool. When he heard the first thing about Zhang Xiu, he understood the reason. At least, Zhang Xiu''s conditions are not so easy to achieve.


    Even the subsequent conditions are not easy to meet.


    At this moment, Kong Yan knelt on the ground, and his inner anger dissipated slightly. He would like to see how Ma Li would reply. Because once Ma Li agreed to it, it would not be good news for Ma Li, and he would even be attacked by a group of people. But if Ma Li did not agree, Zhang Xiu would not be able to pass.


    Ma Li pondered for a long time, and finally said: "Your Majesty, I''m willing to agree!"


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth.


    As a matter of fact, if Zhang Xiu wants to make the people no longer envelope the gods that the Majia people serve, then it must be the Majia people who stand up to explain, and it must be the Majia people who stand up to tear them down.


    Otherwise, Baixin would not believe it.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    As for the people disappointed in Mali''s deception and angry that Mali has defiled their daughter, that''s what happened to Mali and the people.


    This is also in Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    Ma Li said: "Your Majesty''s second thing, what is that?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the second thing for me is that you have been serving as a God''s Prayer sacrifice for so many years, even if you have never solicited money or wantonly snatched money. But countless people, going to Shangxiang to wish, will leave countless money. Even if the money given by a common people is small, there will be a lot of money accumulated if there are many people


    "All this money is ill gotten gains for the Ma family."


    Zhang xiudao said, "so my second thing is to give back the money of the Ma family to the people of Dichi county."


    Brush!


    Ma Li''s face changed again.


    This second move is equivalent to cutting off the economic source of Mali.


    If Zhang Xiu''s first step made the Mali people as enemies, countless people in Dichi County hated Mali and the Mali people, and even attacked the Mali people, but at least Mali was still alive.


    Even Mali could escape to other places.


    After all, the Ma family has money.


    But the second thing Zhang Xiu did was to cut off Ma Li''s money, making it impossible for Ma Li to transfer money. In this way, Ma Li and his family are in trouble, because without money, it will be very difficult, even difficult step by step.

 Chapter 1195

    Kong Yan is still kneeling aside, his face is already full of smiles. Earlier on, Kong Yan was full of anger. He wanted to scold Zhang Xiu for being a fatuous king. He wanted to kill Ma Li immediately.


    Today, Kong Yan has to say that Zhang Xiu''s means are more advanced.


    There is no blood to kill.


    To punish Mali is far more effective than to kill Mali. Therefore, Kong Yan''s attitude towards Zhang Xiu has changed accordingly. He is no longer hostile to Zhang Xiu, but full of respect.


    However, Ma Li''s mood was different.


    Ma Lixian got Zhang Xiu''s promise not to kill him. He was very happy and felt that even if he paid a big price, he could at least survive. As long as he is alive, there is still hope and a chance to make a comeback.


    After all, the Ma family has enough money.


    He can rise again.


    But now, Ma Li suddenly found that Zhang Xiu was not an easy deceiver. Zhang Xiu was the founding emperor of the great Qin Dynasty. His words and deeds were purposeful, and he was forced into a desperate situation.


    Ma Li was not reconciled and could only say: "Your Majesty, if the Ma family donates all their money and gives it back to the people of Dichi County, then the people of my Ma family will not survive. Please, your majesty, give the Ma family a way to live. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "livelihood is not a problem. There are many ambushes in my army. They are engaged in burying pots and cooking, building fortifications, or building bridges and roads. They can earn money. As long as your Ma family is willing to cooperate, I can give you Ma family the opportunity to do things, so that they can support their families. "


    Ma Li was very embarrassed.


    No one in the Ma family can do such a thing.


    The Ma family has a big family and a big business.


    All the people in the Ma family need to do is lie down and eat. They don''t have to think about livelihood. Let the people of the Ma family change their way of life. I''m afraid the people of the Ma family can''t bear it.


    Said to be a member of the Ma family, Ma Li couldn''t hold on.


    Ma Li solemnly said: "please your majesty, you can leave some money to the Ma family, so that the Ma family has a chance to survive."


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said: "Ma Li, what I told you is not to discuss with you, but to inform you. It''s for you to carry out. If you want to say anything else, you don''t have to. You don''t want to live. The people of the Ma family don''t want to live. I can help you and send you Mali and the people of the Ma family on the road. "


    Strong words come from Zhang Xiu''s mouth.


    The tone is cold, leaving no feeling.


    For Zhang Xiu, he despised Mali''s defilement of women, especially under the pretext of offering sacrifices to gods, which made his words more violent.


    Ma Li heard his cheek twitch, and his face was helpless.


    At this moment, Mali understood.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill him, but she cuts meat with a blunt knife. She wants him to die little by little, or put him in a desperate situation little by little.


    Ma Li knelt on the ground, his eyes gradually congested, more full of resentment.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill him, he will be given a way to live.


    Then, Ma Li will be grateful.


    Now, Zhang Xiu clearly wants to deal with him, so Ma Li kneels on the ground. His hands, which were originally on his knees, are already overlapped up and down and put on his knees.


    This makes Ma Li not willing to cooperate, so Ma Li''s heart, already had the intention to kill.


    Ma Li didn''t tell his heart for the time being. He bit his teeth and said with a look of pain, "Your Majesty, the grassroots are willing to give up their wealth. What''s the third thing


    Zhang Xiu said: "my third thing..."


    "Kill


    Just when Zhang Xiugang opened her mouth, a big drink came from Mali''s mouth. Ma Li sprang up with a leap, and took out a dagger from his sleeve with his right hand. He stepped on Zhang Xiu.


    This is to kill Zhang Xiu.


    If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, you will never stop.


    "Zhang Xiu child, you are so forced, you don''t let my Ma family people live, then I will kill you first."


    Ma Li himself has martial arts.


    And Mali''s martial arts are not bad.


    When he rushed forward quickly, in a twinkling of an eye, he was close to Zhang Xiu, less than three feet away. In Mali''s hand, the dagger went on. When he saw that he was about to stab Zhang Xiu, he saw that Zhang Xiu had already avoided the dagger.


    Zhang Xiu''s hand is like lightning.


    As soon as he reached out, he grasped Ma Li''s wrist.


    "Let go!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    In a flash, Mali felt severe pain in his wrist, and even his muscles and veins were restrained. He took the hand of the dagger, and it lost its power immediately, and the dagger fell to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu tugs hard, and Ma Li staggers forward.


    But at this time, Zhang Xiu has stood up and kicked out. Just as Mali''s body was moving forward, his kick was impartial and hit Mali''s heart. Only with a bang, Mali''s body flew out of control. After crossing an arc in the air, Mali fell to the ground with a bang."Ah


    The scream came from Mali''s mouth.


    Ma Li was gasping, and even he seemed to suffocate.


    It''s really just Zhang Xiu''s foot down, and Ma Li nearly fainted. Ma Li fell to the ground and felt more pain all over. His whole body was up and down, and he seemed to have been scattered.


    Ma Li looked at Zhang Xiu with sharp eyes and a strong hatred. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel. If you kill me today, there will be countless people to avenge me in the future. There are countless crazy believers who believe in gods in the county seat of Dichi. These people will take revenge for me when they learn that I died in the hands of Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, Mali continued: "if you kill me, there will be no peace."


    There is a strong threat in the words.


    Ma Li is now out of the question. He has torn his face with Zhang Xiu. In this way, he doesn''t care about anything else.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Ma Li, you look up to yourself too much. You think that the God you believe in has countless crazy believers, but you forget that these crazy believers, in fact, are driven by interests. Once they are not driven by profit, even when their lives are in danger, they will abandon the gods and even deal with the Ma family in turn. The hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. Without sufficient interests, they will no longer believe in the so-called gods. "


    "No way!"


    Ma Li clenched his teeth and answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I only need an order. In view of the fact that the army of the Kushan Kingdom ravaged Dichi County, causing a lot of losses to the people of Dichi county. I give some preferential treatment to the people of Dichi County, and forgive them one year''s taxes and corvee. The object of forgiveness is those who have never believed in the gods of your horse family. No one who has any relationship with the gods worshipped by the Ma family will enjoy any preferential treatment. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said again: "in addition, I will declare the gods worshipped by the Ma family as wanton sacrifices. It''s driven by the imperial court''s orders and the interests I''ve given. I''d like to see how many people are willing to honor the gods you believe in. "


    "Zhang Xiu, you..."


    Ma Li bit his teeth and said, "you are too cruel. My Ma family are willing to follow you. But, without you, we still have to kill. Zhang Xiu, you have to die. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "your way of life can only follow the direction that I set. I''ll give you a way to live, but you don''t want to accept it. No wonder. In particular, it is a capital crime for you to assassinate me with a sharp blade. Today, you can assassinate me; tomorrow, you can too. You can''t stay with a man of ulterior motives. "


    A thug, a murderer, even a threat, Zhang Xiu will not stay.


    Only kill it!

 Chapter 1196

    "Hoo! Hoo


    Ma Li breathed, and his eyes were very angry.


    In his eyes, he was even more desperate.


    He''s dead.


    The Ma family is over.


    Originally, Mali was a man with a bottom line. But there is no way. As a god sacrifice, he has been deeply involved in it. He can''t extricate himself from it, so that he is now in such a situation.


    It''s all self inflicted.


    But Ma Li was not reconciled.


    Ma Li tried hard to get up, but as soon as he worked hard, he felt pain all over and couldn''t lift any strength.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are bound to die!"


    Ma Li roared in his mouth. He could not vent his anger or revenge, so he could only show off his advantage. However, in his words, there was a strong sense of despair, and it was extremely sad.


    The invincible Ma family, it''s over!


    Zhang Xiu no longer said much and ordered, "come on!"


    With an order, a soldier entered. Zhang Xiu said, "take Mali down to me and put him to death."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to take Mali out.


    Ma Li''s mouth, but constantly yelling, he is not willing to be killed, so loudly curse Zhang Xiu, curse Zhang Xiu not good death, and said that will be retribution.


    "Wait a minute!"


    Suddenly, Zhang Xiu waved to stop.


    In Mali''s eyes, hope rose and said: "Zhang Xiu, as long as you spare my life. Not only that, but also let go of my Ma family. Then my Ma family is willing to work for you. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I don''t need scum like you and the Ma family. If all my subordinates are people like you, then Daqin will not last long. I don''t need you."


    Ma Li said, "well, what do you do when you stop drinking?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the reason why I stop drinking is not to forgive you, but because I think of a better way to deal with it, which is also the way I am most used to. Next, I will announce the crimes of your Mali and the Mali family, and then try you Mali publicly, so that all the people in Dichi county will know about your crimes. "


    Brush!


    Mali''s face changed greatly.


    When he looked at Zhang Xiu, there was more horror in his eyes. He roared: "Zhang Xiu, you are the devil, you are the devil, if you want to kill or cut, come directly. Zhang Xiu, you heartless son of a bitch


    He''s not willing to go to trial.


    If Zhang Xiu killed him now. So, even if Zhang Xiu declared that the gods worshipped by the Ma family were ghosts and gods, which were not recognized by the imperial court, there were always countless people who believed in these gods.


    After all, Zhang Xiu killed people directly.


    But the problem is that after Zhang Xiu''s public trial, all the mystery of Ma Li disappeared, and Ma Li was also completely exposed in the sight of the people, so he was no longer an omnipotent God sacrifice, no longer a superior person.


    It''s a fragmentation of identity.


    Zhang Xiu''s decision made him lose his reputation and everything.


    Mali has no doubt that after the public trial, he Mali is the great God stick in the history of Dichi county and will be cursed by countless people. Later, generations of people in Dichi county will remember that in the history of Dichi County, there was a god stick named Mali who invaded women with the help of the theory of gods and ghosts.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the crazy Mali and said faintly: "Mali, all this is your self humiliation. I''ll give you life. If you don''t want to, you have to choose the most extreme way. "


    Ma Li said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, I know I''m wrong. I''m willing to repent."


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, command a way: "take a person down."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to drag people out.


    Only Kong Yan, Zhang Xiu and others were left in the tent. At this time, Kong Yan admired Zhang Xiu. He still knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and solemnly said: "Your Majesty''s determination, wisdom and martial arts, grass people admire. Just now, it was the grass people who misunderstood your majesty. Please forgive me. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s not bad if you can change it when you know your mistakes clearly."


    Kong Yan looked ashamed and said, "Your Majesty loves me. The grass people are ashamed."


    Looking at Kong Yan in front of her, Zhang Xiu suddenly had a plan in mind and said, "Kong Yan, as a son of the sage family, you have been reading the books of sages since you were young, and you know the significance of enlightenment. At your age, you should be an official. Why, up to now, have not become an official yet? "


    When Kong Yan heard this, he was embarrassed.


    Zhang xiudao said, "why, is there something hard to say?"


    Kong Yan now admires Zhang Xiu and trusts her more. As soon as he bites his teeth, he says, "the reason why the grassroots people don''t become officials is not that they don''t want to, it''s because of their uncle''s obstruction."


    Zhang xiudao: "your uncle Kong Rong?"


    "Yes


    Kong Yan nodded and answered.Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Today, Kong Rong is also an important official of the Qin Dynasty. In the past, there were some contradictions between Zhang Xiu and Kong Rong. Later, Kong Rong became a subordinate of Zhang Xiu and took up a post under his command. He was also an old minister who became subordinate to Zhang Xiu very early.


    Kong Yan said: "my uncle said that my temperament is very similar to that of my uncle in earlier years. If I am too rigid, I will be easily broken. Therefore, my uncle asked me to travel around the world and increase my experience, which is also a way to sharpen my temper. Otherwise, my uncle said that sooner or later, I would fall into the official arena. So, I didn''t become an official for the time being. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "Kong Rong himself has not changed much. Maybe he realized his own shortcomings and didn''t want you to go his way. But in fact, Kong Rong forgot that straightness is a good character. Once you really become a smooth person, you will be much more philistine if you lack the sharp edges and straightness. "


    Kong Yan said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I think you are very good. If you are not jealous of evil, how can you expose Ma Li here and make such a feat. So I appreciate you very much. "


    When Kong Yan heard this, he was even more excited and flushed.


    His heart was filled with joy.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "Kong Yan, the situation of Dichi County, you travel here, should be very clear. Although I have dealt with Mali, I even have to bow down to Mali. "


    "But in fact, it is not possible to change people''s ideas overnight. The situation of the people in Dichi county is even more tragic. If I want to change the situation here, I urgently need a person who dares to ask for orders for the people, who dares to uphold justice for the people, to be the magistrate of Dichi county. "


    "You, Kong Yan, have the courage and courage to speak out, and you come from the sage family. I believe you are a capable person. You can be willing to serve as the magistrate of Dichi county. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "would you like to?"


    Although Kong Yan has many shortcomings, as the head of a county, he also has this ability.


    Kong Yan admired Zhang Xiu in his heart. After listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, he said without hesitation: "Your Majesty values it. Kong Yan should do his best to let the people of Dichi County get rid of the influence of the past. Kong Yan, I am willing to serve your majesty. "


    "Well, I look forward to your success."


    Zhang Xiu said: "now there is no magistrate in Dichi county. I will issue an imperial edict immediately. You can go directly to the post."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu wrote an imperial edict, which he handed to Kong Yan after printing.


    "Thank you


    After Kong Yan took the imperial edict, he left in a serious manner.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Kong Yan''s back and smiles. With a straight man like Kong Yan, Ma Li and others will not be allowed to continue to exist. Then the bad habits of Dichi county will be completely wiped out.

 Chapter 1197

    After Kong Yan left, Wang Yuecai said, "Your Majesty, Kong Yan is a man who is jealous of evil. As a magistrate of Dichi County, he is bound to crack down on the bad habits of obscene temples such as the Ma family. It can be predicted that this will definitely be swept up. Just, what if Kong Yan''s means are too extreme, leading to a mess below? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "chaos is impossible. After all, my army is still in Dichi county. Now, we need to find out the situation of Kushan country, which takes a certain amount of time to get information. So in a short time, I will not leave Dichi county. "


    Wang Yue said: "with your Majesty in charge, Kong Yan will not have any problems. This Kong Yan is really lucky. He is the county magistrate, and his majesty is escorting him. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue, let''s arrange the affairs of Mali. In addition, the Ma family seized immediately. Even if the Ma family has no bad habits, please find out for me what''s wrong with the Ma family. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded.


    He has understood the meaning of Zhang Xiu. No matter how Ma Li is, he must be charged.


    Otherwise, it''s not easy to deal with.


    After all, Mali has been taken down, and Mali has committed crimes. Therefore, under this premise, some small things of Mali''s family in the past will be turned over and used as the evidence of Mali''s crimes.


    Wang Yue turned around and went down to arrange it. It was only half a day. The news that Ma Li had planted it had spread all over the county. In particular, Mali''s assassination of Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, is even more shocking.


    In addition, the government issued a notice that the ghosts and gods Ma Li served were prostitutes and were not recognized by the government. Under a series of adverse news propaganda to the Ma family, the people were quite shocked.


    In fact, many people in Dichi county like Mali very much.


    After all, Mali mediated numerous disputes.


    But at this time, the government issued a data about the Ma family, that is, the money found in Ma Li''s family amounted to 100 million. Mali''s family assets are hundreds of millions, which shocked countless people.


    People are naturally hostile to the rich.


    Mali is no exception.


    When the government issued this data, and Ma Li himself was not in business, he served a ghost. As a sacrifice, there is so much money that people feel resentful. Also through this situation, the people of Mali, has no early awe. Therefore, when the government issued an order to examine Mali publicly, the people only clapped their hands.


    When the government ordered Ma Li to be brought to trial, the people did not resist, and there were no supporters of Ma Li. Even those who believe in Mali dare not speak for Mali.


    In the end, the matter of Mali didn''t even send out a ripple.


    Mali disappeared completely in Dichi county.


    At the same time, the news that Kong Yan was the county magistrate was also thoroughly spread. As a descendant of Confucius, the birth of Kong Yan shocked countless people, made countless people praise him, and began to support him.


    The reason is very simple. Kong Yan is a descendant of Confucius.


    For this reason alone, the people were convinced by Kong Yan.


    It''s the celebrity effect.


    This is what Zhang Xiu expected. The reason why he appointed Kong Yan is that on the one hand, Kong Yan dares to take office, and on the other hand, he has enough influence as a member of Kong''s family.


    Dichi County things on the regular, Zhang Xiu did not go to tube.


    Now, Zhang Xiu''s focus is on the intelligence of Kushan state, so as to attack Kushan in the next stage.


    When the army is stationed, the soldiers in the army will have ball games in addition to daily training. There are many kinds of competitions in the army, which make the soldiers have something to do.


    Zhang Xiu is also at leisure, reading books, practicing martial arts, but also lead a leisurely life. On this day, when Zhang Xiu was dealing with government affairs in the camp, the curtain of the camp door was lifted, but Wang Yue strode in and saluted respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Wang Yue said with a straight face: "report to your majesty, the royal guards sent by my minister came into contact with one person in Dichi county. His name is liedumi, a prince who calls himself Wusun king. The soldiers of Kushan Kingdom killed Wusun, and Wusun was destroyed. The people who hunted Wusun were able to escape. Now he comes to Dichi county to see his majesty. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "how much power is there for hunting?"


    Wang Yue replied, "tell your majesty, hunting is all around you, only a hundred people."


    Zhang xiudao said, "I''ll see you then."


    Wang Yue said, "I''ll arrange it now."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, Wang Yue turned around and stepped down. However, Zhang Xiu''s heart is vivid. Wusun is also one of the countries in the western regions, and used to be a big country. But later, the strength of Wusun Kingdom gradually weakened, and now it has been easily destroyed by Kushan.


    With the prince of Wusun, the hunting capital is everywhere, and Zhang Xiu''s entry into the western regions is just as the name says.


    At least, there is a charismatic person.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, thinking about how to deal with hunting, because hunting is an opportunity for Zhang Xiu.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu has made up her mind.However, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for people to call Pang Tong, Guo Jia and Xun Yu. Even though Zhang Xiu has her own plan, she also needs to ask the Counselor''s opinions, because if she listens to it, it will be clear, and if she is biased, it will be dark.


    After seeing all the three of you, Zhang said to me, "why did you come to see me


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, liedumi is a member of the Wusun royal family. With the help of the power of liedumi, on the one hand, he can enter the western regions with a good name, on the other hand, he can fight against the Kushan with a good name."


    "If we go there alone, it''s easy to be resisted."


    "After all, we are no different from Kushan."


    "With hunting capital, people in western regions will have less resistance to us. Then, we can take the people of the western regions for our own use, which is good for hunting. "


    Xun Yu''s eyes twinkled, and he said, "but when it comes to hunting, it depends on whether he is willing to cooperate. If the hunting capital is full of evil intentions, it may evolve into a double-edged sword, which is easy to hurt others and oneself. "


    Guo Jia said: "if Wen said that, I agree with him. So my suggestion is to take down the hunter and control him. It''s not hard to take in a small hunting capital. "


    Pang Tong said: "I agree with Mr. Guo''s suggestion. There''s no need to be gentle about hunting. Because Huairou, on the contrary, leads the other party to think that we need to rely on his strength. What we have to do is to suppress strongly and let him cooperate. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "I also agree with Guo Jia''s suggestion. I will directly subdue the hunting capital."


    His idea coincides with Guo Jia''s.


    It''s all direct deterrence and hunting.


    After making the plan, Zhang Xiu asked Guo Jia about the situation of the general staff, and asked the people about the deduction of the war with Kushan. Now it is only with a small number of news, and then deduction.


    After all, the information is not detailed.


    After the negotiation, everyone retreats, while Zhang Xiu quietly waits for the arrival of hunting capital.


    Time is not long, Wang Yue entered.


    The more respectful the king said, "Your Majesty, the hunting is all over. It''s outside the camp."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Wang Yue went to inform him that soon, a man in his early twenties, less than 30 years old, entered. This man is a hunter. His dress is quite different from that of Wusun kingdom.


    It is reasonable to say that Wusun is a country in the western regions, dressed differently from the Central Plains. But the hunting capital is popular today, but it is dressed in the clothes of Daqin. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he knelt straight forward.


    However, he was not used to wearing Daqin''s clothes. When he knelt down, because he stepped on the end of his robe, he couldn''t stand firmly. He staggered forward and fell to the ground. He was very embarrassed.


    Rao is so, hunting all Mi look up to Zhang Xiu, but grin up, a face flattery appearance.


    Zhang Xiu stares at the hunting capital, but her eyes squint.


    This man is flattering, but whether he has a heart or a shallow person, he needs to be tested.


    In this way, Zhang Xiu can do things conveniently.

 Chapter 1198

    Liedumi knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head to the ground. Regardless of his embarrassment, he said, "Wusun liedumi, I''d like to meet your majesty. May your majesty live forever."


    Zhang xiudao said, "as Prince Wusun, why are you dressed in the service of the Qin people?"


    "I''ll tell you," replied liedumi, "liedumi does as the Romans do. He should be served by the people of Qin. Although the dress doesn''t fit and I''m not used to it, the experience is OK. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at the humble hunting, eyes narrowed, eyes still look at.


    He didn''t believe all the hunting in front of him.


    Zhang xiudao said, "you''ve come to see me, but what''s the matter?"


    "Liedumi replied:" Your Majesty, liedumi is here today, hoping to get help from Daqin. Wusun kingdom was suddenly attacked by Kushan Kingdom, which led to the destruction of the country. Today, there are only a few people left in Wusun. My Wusun and Kushan are enemies. So I''m sure that his majesty Daqin can lend me ten thousand excellent soldiers to help me restore our country. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard this, she sneered.


    With one identity, the hunting capital needs ten thousand elite soldiers to open his mouth. He really dares to open his mouth.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "you asked me to give you ten thousand elite soldiers. Then, what do you take as a pledge? If you don''t have enough collateral, you want 10000 elite soldiers. That''s empty talk. "


    All of them are thinking about their strategies.


    He wanted revenge all the time.


    It is not impossible for him to restore his country if he has ten thousand more Qin''s elite troops and has Qin as his backing.


    So liedumi said, "Your Majesty, liedumi has a treasure of Wusun''s town. The hunting capital is willing to exchange Wusun''s treasure for the help of his majesty Daqin. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what is the most precious treasure of the country?"


    Hunting all Mi said: "this is a jade seal, which represents the jade seal of my Wusun king. With this jade seal, you can be the successor of Wusun King''s family. Just like me, although I am now living in Daqin. But with the jade seal of King Wusun''s vein, when I come back to Wusun''s country, as long as I take out the jade seal and make a call, there will be people who follow me. In Wusun, the jade seal is the imperial power. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "in that case, what about the jade seal?"


    The hunting capital narrowed his eyes and said, "I''ll tell your majesty that this jade seal is very important. It''s not in my hands. Today, it is hidden in the county seat of Dichi. This place, only I know. As long as your majesty is willing to help me, I am willing to hand over this jade seal. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "to help you is for sure. But the premise is, you have to be obedient. "


    "Obedient, very obedient."


    "I will obey your Majesty''s orders. Your majesty will let me go east, but I dare not go west. Your majesty told me to go west, I would never dare to go east. In short, your Majesty''s orders are everything. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "Wang Yue!"


    "I''m here!"


    Wang Yue stepped forward to answer.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "you arrange for someone to inform Shi a and let him come to the big account of the Chinese army. Next, escort hunting to get back the jade seal. Time can''t be delayed. Let him come to the palace as soon as possible. "


    "Ah


    Huntsman frowned and even exclaimed.


    He didn''t want to be accompanied, and things didn''t work out, he had to keep the jade seal. When the army of Kushan is defeated, the jade seal can be handed over to Zhang Xiu.


    It''s something that every hunter has to think about.


    After taking a deep breath and adjusting his mood, he said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, is the jade seal postponed. When I take back Wusun, I will hand over the jade seal. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "now I want Wu sun''s jade seal."


    "I can''t do it!" said the hunter


    At the moment, the hunting is very popular, with a solemn and firm look on his face.


    When it comes to Wu sun''s jade seal, he won''t let it go easily. Once now, give the jade seal of Wusun king to Zhang Xiu. In case Zhang Xiu doesn''t take the jade seal, he can''t do anything.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "it''s not up to you. It''s the same whether you go or not."


    Huntsman exclaimed, "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I need you to cooperate with me and listen to me. Now, I give you a choice, go or not


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have any kind heart for hunting capital, and she doesn''t want to show the style of a big country to help hunting capital recover. Zhang Xiu''s goal is to capture the whole western region and even control the Kushan.


    So Wusun state and Zhang Xiu also need it.


    It''s impossible for us to recover our country.


    Neither Kushan nor Zhang Xiu''s Daqin allowed a Wusun state to exist. There can be no pity between countries, let alone because of Wusun''s miserable situation. Zhang Xiu is going to help Wusun recover.


    This is reality.


    The hunting capital swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Your Majesty, I can''t go. Wusun jade seal is the inheritance of Wusun kingdom. It can never be handed over to you easily. "Zhang xiudao said: "just, I don''t want this Wusun jade seal."


    "Hoo


    Hunting all mi long breathed a sigh of relief, said: "thank you, your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, a soldier entered the camp and saluted Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "drag down the hunting and kill it for me."


    "Here it is


    When the soldiers got the order, they went straight to the hunting capital.


    Even though the hunting capital is full of bravery, but in front of the soldiers, the hunting capital can''t get rid of it. He was dragged out by the soldiers, with a look of panic on his face, and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, what are you doing? Why do you want to kill me? Why do you want to kill me? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you can''t use it for me, you can only destroy it. If you don''t want to hand over the so-called Wusun jade seal, I will not. I will destroy it with you. Even without you, it has no influence on me. "


    Huntsman''s face changed again and again, and there was more panic in his eyes.


    He once thought that Daqin was a country of benevolence and righteousness.


    If he comes to seek help, Daqin will certainly help him to restore his country. But did not expect, he just out of the wolf''s nest, and into the tiger''s den, and Zhang Xiu''s means, far more ruthless than Kushan.


    If you don''t agree, you''re going to kill.


    "Your Majesty, please spare your life," said liedumi


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t speak and let the soldiers drag the hunting capital out. Under such a premise, hunting is very popular, and he is about to be dragged out of the camp, and his heart is even more nervous.


    In the end, huntu Mi could not help shouting: "Your Majesty, I am willing to cooperate, I am willing to cooperate. I''m willing to hand over the Wusun jade seal in my hand. I only ask the emperor to spare my life. "


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, the soldiers stopped.


    At this moment, all the hunters were relieved. Even his legs are a little weak and almost unstable.


    It''s terrible.


    Huntu faltered back to the camp, but because of what happened just now, his legs were not stable, and he fell to the ground again with a stagger, which was a big gasp.


    Huntsman looked up at Zhang Xiu, who was sitting on the throne. There was a touch of fear in her eyes. Because he found that when he saw Zhang Xiu in Dichi County, it was impossible for him to do things with the help of the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, but instead, he was used by Zhang Xiu.


    Even if the hunting is all at the moment, my heart is full of regret, but everything has been irreparable.


    He is the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board.

 Chapter 1199

    Soon, Shi a entered and saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu immediately talked about the situation of hunting capital, so she asked Shi a to take hunting capital to get Wu sun Yuyin. However, when Shi a was on his way, Zhang Xiu gave a special order that if he could not get back Wu SunYu''s seal, he would directly kill hunting capital.


    Once this was said, all the hunters were shocked.


    Hunting is full of some bitterness to see Zhang Xiu one eye, his heart, indeed some ideas. Thinking that when Shi a and he arrive at Wusun''s residence, they will look for an opportunity to escape.


    At present Zhang Xiu a word, then cut off to hunt all Mi of retreat.


    They are too busy to even delay.


    Otherwise, he will be killed.


    Shi A''s face was solemn, and he said solemnly: "Your Majesty, don''t worry, from beginning to end, the minister will control the hunting capital, and will never let him out of control. This is true before and after Wu sun''s jade seal. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m waiting for your good news."


    Shi''a bows with his fist and leaves with his hunting capital.


    Among the people who left with Shi a was a group of royal guards. The number of this group was about 50 people. All of them were dressed in black Samurai clothes, with sharp eyes and eyes, and they were all the best of the best.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the camp waiting.


    About half an hour later, Shi''a and liedumi have returned.


    There is a box in the hand of Huntsman.


    He wants to go to Zhang Xiu with a box in his hand, but when he takes a step, he is stopped by Shi a. Shi a took the box directly, then walked forward, came to Zhang Xiu, put the box down, and said: "Your Majesty, the jade seal of Wusun king is in it."


    Zhang Xiu opens the box and her eyes fall on the jade seal.


    This jade seal is a square one.


    Its shape is similar to that of the seals of all dynasties in China, but the material of the jade seal is excellent, transparent, warm and mellow. When Zhang Xiu reached out and picked it up, she didn''t feel the jade seal was cold at all. Instead, it was soft and comfortable.


    Zhang Xiu picked up the jade seal and looked at the bottom of it. At the bottom of the jade seal, Wu sun''s characters are carved. But Zhang Xiu doesn''t know exactly what it is and is not interested in getting to the bottom of it.


    Hunting is popular now, is completely cool, he a flattering look, said: "Your Majesty, I have now offered the jade seal of Wusun. I don''t know. Can you let me go for a while. Please rest assured that I will stay in Dichi county all the time and I will obey your arrangement. I''ll be on call as long as your majesty has orders. Just ask your majesty to give me some freedom. "


    Zhang xiudao: "it''s not safe outside. For your safety, it''s safer to stay in the barracks."


    The hunting capital has changed greatly.


    He was imprisoned, and he lost his freedom.


    However, he was unwilling to do so. He said, "Your Majesty, do you think so. Let me go back to the house. You arrange soldiers to stay outside the house and surround it. In this way, it''s under your control. After all, I''m not used to living in the barracks. It''s more comfortable to live in a house. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s obviously impossible for you to go back to your house. If you go back to your house and find a tunnel or someone to replace you, I can''t help you. Honest, stay in the barracks. If you want to eat, drink and do anything, you can find soldiers outside the camp. "


    The face of the hunting capital changed again and again.


    He did not expect that Zhang Xiu, as the king of a country, was so cautious.


    Give him no chance.


    In fact, there is a tunnel in the house where hunting is popular. Although this tunnel does not lead to the outside of Dichi County, it can leave the residence and disappear quietly.


    In such a big Dichi County, as long as the hunting capital disappears, Zhang Xiu''s search for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.


    This is the only way to escape.


    But now, because of Zhang Xiu''s prudence, even this last chance is completely gone.


    Zhang Xiu said, "take the people down."


    "Yes


    When the soldiers got the order, they immediately stepped forward and retired with their hunting.


    In the tent, only Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue and Shi a were left. Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Shi a and said in a deep voice, "Shi a, I''ll leave it to you to monitor the hunting capital. During this period of time, keep an eye on him and don''t let him have any changes. "


    "Here it is


    Shia is respectful.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Wang Yue again, saying: "Wang Yue, you can start to arrange the hunting. Let''s publicize the news of hunting in Wusun. At the same time, the news was released again that I had already got my support. In a short time, I will kill him with my help. In this way, we can unite Wusun and remain loyal to the power of Wusun. "


    Wang Yue said, "I understand your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu said the rest of the detailed arrangements, let Wang Yue back.


    Hunting all the things, gradually subsided.As time goes by, the weather becomes hotter and hotter in June. Especially in Dichi County, although it is quite cool at night, it is very hot during the day, with a large temperature difference between day and night.


    Fortunately, officers and men in the army are used to it.


    However, during this period, Zhang Xiu did not restrict the soldiers in the army. She often gave them holidays and allowed them to go out. However, Zhang Xiu also ordered the soldiers to harass the people in Dichi County, and once found, they would be punished severely.


    So the officers and men in the army also abide by the law.


    On this day, when Zhang Xiu was avoiding the heat in the camp, she saw that the curtain of the camp door was lifted, but Xun Yu entered.


    "I''d like to meet your majesty, Xun Yu."


    Xun Yu saluted respectfully.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "Wenruo, what can I do for you?"


    Xun Yu said: "tell your majesty that I came here for the marriage of the soldiers in the army. Nowadays, because the army has been stationed in Dichi County for a long time, and the soldiers have never been forbidden to go out, it is inevitable that they will be involved with the local people when they go out. As far as I know, there are many officers and men in the army today, including some grassroots generals in the army, who have contacts with some women in Dichi county. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "as long as the officers and men have never committed crimes and always abide by the law, it has no effect."


    Xun Yu replied, "Your Majesty is right, but I''m thinking that with the help of this matter, we can further control Dichi county and promote the complete stability of Dichi county."


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Xun Zheng said: "the soldiers in the army are loyal to your majesty. Therefore, if these people stay in Dichi County, they are also loyal to your majesty. In particular, Dichi County itself is a remote place. The more so, the more difficult it is to control. "


    After a pause, Xun Yu continued: "the minister''s proposal is to place all the women in the army who are related to the local women in Dichi county. In this way, they settled down in Dichi county and were loyal to their majesty. It is also very beneficial for your majesty to control the place. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    It can be done.


    From the general direction, once this thing is successful, then Zhang Xiu''s control of the place will be more stable. In fact, if such a thing can be put into the world, it''s not bad, but it''s more difficult to operate.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wenruo, you can arrange this."


    "Here it is


    Xun Yu responded respectfully.


    "Hoo


    Just at this time, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted again.


    But see Wang more in a hurry, face more eager look, seems to have extremely urgent things.

 Chapter 1200

    Wang Yue bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, I have just received two pieces of news."


    Zhang xiudao: "which two pieces of news?"


    Wang Yue replied: "the first news is that the army led by generals such as Gan Ning and Zhao Yun has swept Zhangye and Jiuquan counties. Our army has been stationed at the Jiuquan border and can enter the western regions at any time. "


    "The second piece of news is from Kushan. The great emperor of Kushan, Wei sudiva, who learned that modi had been defeated, had personally mobilized her troops to kill her in Jiuquan county."


    Wang Yue said: "this time, the number of weisudiva''s troops reached nearly 200000."


    "Two hundred thousand?"


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said, "are there so many people?"


    Wang Yue replied, "it''s true that 200000 troops have been mobilized. Even these 200000 troops are only elite soldiers in combat. I''m afraid that the number of troops mobilized in this guishuang event will be more than 256 000."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed slightly, thinking about the situation of guishuang''s sending troops.


    Zhang Xiu''s Daqin was able to touch 2560000 troops at one time. The problem is that the deployment of such a large number of troops, once the army is defeated, will be tantamount to a disaster for Daqin, and will affect the stability of the whole Daqin.


    This is what Zhang Xiu doesn''t want to do.


    Similarly, Zhang Xiu believes that guishuang is the same.


    As for Kushan, because modi had damaged more than 100000 troops before, on this premise, Kushan again mobilized 250000 troops, or even more troops, which must have exhausted its national strength.


    Otherwise, there can be no such battle.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "Wang Yue, do we have many hands available for Kushan?"


    Wang Yue said: "we have a lot of people in Kushan, but they are all unimportant people. After all, the people sent by the royal guards to Kushan have just entered and have not made any breakthrough for the time being. Now, that is to say, we can get some public information, but we can''t get confidential information. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "even if you don''t get in touch with important people, it doesn''t matter. You send orders to the royal guards of Kushan, ask them to move as far as possible, inquire about the news closely, and then make friends with the power of Kushan. In particular, make friends with people who disagree with vesuva. As a result, Vasudeva was defeated in the front line, and then there was trouble in the rear. "


    Wang Yue said: "I understand your humble position!"


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "if the order goes on, we will leave today and go to Jiuquan to meet Gan Ning, Chen Zhi and others. As far as I know, to the west of Jiuquan County, there is Dunhuang county. However, the former Dunhuang county was no longer under control. It used to be an active place in the western regions. Now it is under the control of Kushan as the boundary of Kushan. I don''t know if Gan Ning and others have entered Dunhuang. "


    Wang Yue said: "there is no news back."


    Zhang xiudao said: "when we arrive, we will know. You can send a message. We will leave today."


    "Here it is


    The more the king got the order, he immediately went to send it.


    It was only half an hour before the army got everything ready and set out for Jiuquan county. Originally, according to Xun Yu''s suggestion, some military officers and men who had contact with women in Dichi county were prepared to stay.


    However, the incident happened suddenly, but now it can only be put on hold, because in the guishuang area, Wei sudiva personally led the troops to kill, and Zhang Xiu must rush to the front line as soon as possible, so that she can take command.


    The army set out on a mighty journey.


    However, the speed of the journey was slightly accelerated. Towards the evening, the sun was setting in the West. Under the golden sun, the afterglow of the setting sun was scattered on the horizon, making the whole western horizon red.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu has stopped.


    The troops rest and camp in the same place. The auxiliary soldiers in the camp are already cooking and chatting. The whole camp is filled with the fragrance of rice.


    "There are green mountains and green waters ahead. Look, there are green mountains and green waters ahead."


    There were soldiers in the army, suddenly shouting.


    One by one, the soldiers looked forward and saw a hazy scene in the air not far away. In this scene, there are green mountains and green waters, and the rising smoke, as well as some people and sheep, a harmonious scene.


    Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Pang Tong were all around Zhang Xiu.


    Everyone looked up and saw it.


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it looks like a scene emerging from the air. It''s not too far away from us. It''s better to send a sentry to inquire about the situation. Now we are camping. There is no village in front of us, no shop behind us, and even desert nearby. If you can stay in the front, you can not only replenish water, but also some food, and the soldiers can have a good rest. "


    Xun Yu said, "Your Majesty, I agree with you."


    Ponte said solemnly, "Your Majesty, I agree. Although it''s summer and it''s not too cold at night, it''s not convenient for us to camp in the wilderness. It would be better to camp in the village. "One by one, they keep talking.


    Even some generals in the army came to speak one after another.


    They think they can find out the situation ahead.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people''s words, but she shook her head and said, "ladies and gentlemen, the scene emerging in front of us is not a real village, but an illusion. It''s called a mirage. It''s a scene from a far away place, projected to us not far away. In fact, it''s invisible. "


    Everyone was very surprised.


    Mirage!


    You can see it, you can''t touch it!


    This matter sounds very mysterious, but no one doubts Zhang Xiu. Because Zhang Xiu''s understanding of a lot of knowledge is beyond their ability. First there are sweet potatoes, then there are gunpowder, etc. Zhang Xiu is very clear, but people don''t know.


    So Zhang Xiu''s explanation is believed by everyone.


    Guo Jia said with emotion: "unfortunately, it would be great if it could be close. Especially in this case, it feels like a fairyland, quiet and elegant


    Others echoed.


    Many people think that this may also be a fairyland.


    But there is Zhang Xiu in, after all, no one to take any action, is still in place.


    The rice is fragrant and the meat is delicious.


    With the order for dinner, the soldiers in the army have forgotten the mirage in the distance. After all, after the surprise lasted for a while, it had dissipated. The soldiers chatted with each other, but they had to eat when it was time to eat.


    The army rested all night, and the next morning.


    The army set out again.


    It''s not easy to go on this way, because although the official way is ready-made, we just need to go along the official way. But the problem is that some of the official roads are close to the desert. It''s not easy because of the strong wind and sand.


    As a result, the speed of driving is slower.


    It was late July when Zhang Xiu''s army arrived at Shatou County, the border of Jiuquan county.


    It''s still hot.


    The temperature difference between day and night is still huge.


    Shatou county is not far from Dunhuang county. You can enter Dunhuang County in less than a day''s journey. However, there are also Kushan troops stationed on the border of Dunhuang County today. Although weisudiva of Kushan country has not come yet, there are actually many troops stationed on the border. As a result, it was not easy for the Qin army to invade.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu converged with Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and others, and all entered the army.


    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu sat on the throne, looked around Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and others, and said: "tell me, what''s the situation now? And when will the army of visudiva arrive in Dunhuang county? "


    Gan Ning, with a serious look, reported quickly: "report back to your majesty, according to the information sent back by the sentinel. The army of vesuvativa will arrive at the border of Dunhuang County in two days. "


    "The Kushan army stationed at maishan on the border and seized the commanding height of maishan."


    "There are more than 30000 troops stationed at the top of the mountain alone. In addition, there are more than 60000 troops in the rear camp at the foot of the mountain. If we want to attack, we must first seize the commanding height of maishan. "


    "Otherwise, it will not be easy to attack."


    Gan Ning, with a look of shame, said: "I have attacked several times, but they all ended in failure."


    Zhang Xiu listened and nodded.


    If the general situation is clear, it will be easier for us to deal with it. We won''t be blind. Zhang Xiu looked around Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others and said, "now you know the situation of the border. Tell me, what do you suggest? "

 Chapter 1201

    Before that, Zhang Xiu and modi went to war. Although guishuang and the Qin army went to war, in fact, it was not really a national war between the two countries. At most, it was just a skirmish. But now, Wei sudiva is about to be killed. When the army led by Wei sudiva goes to war with the army led by Zhang Xiu, it is the real national war.


    This is a confrontation between the two countries.


    No matter Zhang Xiu or Wei sudiva, they are not willing to admit defeat, nor can they.


    Because nobody can afford to lose.


    This is the battle of national destiny.


    Guo Jia had a sharp look in his eyes and said: "Your Majesty, I think we should attack quickly at the moment. At the junction of Dunhuang and Jiuquan County, a group of troops from the Kushan kingdom were stationed. Before the arrival of the great army led by vesudeva, we marched in as fast as we could, and with all our might, we took each other down


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, I also agree to rush into the army."


    Pang Tong said, "I''m seconded."


    As the three men opened their mouths, the rest of the generals also asked to fight one after another, ready to fight with all their strength.


    When Zhang Xiu saw that all the people agreed, she stopped talking and ordered, "if that''s the case, attack with all your strength. But before that, you have to be familiar with some weapons. Today, although we haven''t developed artillery, we have new weapons. "


    Ganning said, "Your Majesty, what weapon is it?"


    "Grenades!"


    Zhang Xiu answers.


    As soon as the words came out, Gan Ning, Chen Dao and Gao Lan all showed a puzzled look. The three had led an army to sweep Zhangye and Jiuquan before, so they didn''t know the situation in the rear, and they didn''t know that Zhang Xiu had asked Hu Mo and others to develop hand grenades.


    Zhang Xiu immediately explained it, and even took Gan Ning and others to do experiments in the school. People who had doubts about it were excited to see the explosion of grenades, especially the splashing of soil.


    Ganning said: "Your Majesty, when we attacked maishan, because the Kushan garrison in maishan also dug a trench, so that when we killed, we were blocked and it was difficult to conquer maishan. But now, with grenades, we can prescribe the right medicine to the case, close to them and kill them with grenades. It''s easy to capture Mai Shan. "


    Zhao Yun echoed: "as long as you take maishan, it will be much easier to attack the Kushan garrison at the foot of the mountain. After all, we have three armies, plus the forbidden army led by your majesty. Our troops are no less than 134000. "


    Gao Lan said, "what General Zhao said is true."


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "go to the herald, pull out the army, and set out for maishan. In this war, it is necessary to work hard to win maishan. After taking maishan, drive straight in and destroy the guishuang garrison at the foot of maishan. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning and others should go down together.


    Three people go to arrange separately.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, the officers and men of the army had gathered, and the army left the camp and began to march in the direction of maishan on the border of Dunhuang county. Because it''s the beginning of the army, it''s mighty, it''s fierce.


    This news was soon detected by the sentry of Kushan, so the sentry quickly withdrew to deliver the message.


    Guishuang barracks, on the west side of maishan.


    This is the back of maishan.


    The camp where the army was stationed lasted for several miles. Tens of thousands of Kushan troops were stationed here, and a lot of food, grass and materials were all gathered here, so the area was very wide.


    Barracks, big accounts of the Chinese army.


    Right above the camp, there was an old man in his early fifties, with white temples and a bearded face. The clothes he was wearing were made of Daqin Shu brocade, which was loose, breathable and comfortable.


    His eyes were bright and deep, and he couldn''t see them to the end. On his frosty cheek, there are many gullies, which make his whole face feel like a person and experience countless vicissitudes.


    The man''s name was ujitu.


    He is the commander of Dunhuang county.


    Originally, this time when he entered the territory of Daqin and Zhangye, Wu jiutu would join modi. However, modi was the commander in chief of the March. He ordered utu to stay at the border to ensure the security of the border.


    Moreover, the army led by ujtu was originally the garrison stationed at the border.


    Wu Jiu Tu fan looked at the latest information, and there was a dignified look between his eyebrows. Because the whole army led by modi was destroyed, and the Qin army also began to kill people in Dunhuang.


    The pressure on ujtu is very great.


    If you can''t keep Dunhuang.


    Then the layout of Kushan in the territory of Daqin is that everything will be stopped.


    Especially now, just a few days later, the Kushan army in China, and even the great emperor Wei SUDI will come. Of course, the premise of all this is that he can block the army of Daqin.


    "Newspaper!"


    Outside the camp, a soldier lifted the curtain and entered.


    The soldier hugged his fist and said, "marshal, according to the sentinel, the Qin army is less than ten miles away from maishan. Daqin''s army is about to arrive at maishan. "


    When Wu jiutu heard this, he also cheered up and ordered: "pass on the orders and strictly order the troops stationed on maishan to be ready for battle. And then send orders to all the officers and men in the army to prepare for war. ""Yes


    When the soldier got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    Wu jiutu was sitting alone in the camp. He rubbed his white beard under his jaw. His face was solemn, but his eyes were full of fighting spirit. Even though uytu is a guard, he also wants to fight a war to show his strength and ability.


    Wu jiutu thought about it for a while, then he heard the trumpet in the camp.


    This is the order to call up the soldiers.


    When the officers and men of the army gathered together, ujitu also stood up, put on his armor, and hung his sword around his waist. Then he was ready for the first battle.


    After walking out of the barracks, Wu jiutu came to the barracks and ordered to send troops.


    This time he was sent out, he didn''t want to fight Zhang Xiu. Instead, he wanted to sit in the back of maishan, pay attention to the changes on the battlefield at any time, and respond in the shortest time.


    This is the reason why ujitu sent troops.


    After all, there is still a long way to go from the barracks to the peak of Mt. maishan, and Wu Yutu wants to reduce this distance.


    However, when the troops were temporarily stationed after the deployment of ujtu, ujtu also arranged many sentries to go out again, so as to inquire about the situation and grasp the war situation at any time, so as to make response.


    On maishan, the general of the garrison was named Xumi.


    This man was once born in Wusun country, but he had been in the Kushan army for several years. He drifted all over the world since he was a child. With the help of Wu Jitu, he was able to make a rapid progress.


    Xumi sits on the top of the mountain.


    He has got the news from Wu jiutu''s people that he should guard maishan carefully and avoid loopholes. In addition, Xu Mi also got the news that Zhang Xiu was about to arrive, and knew that Zhang Xiu''s army was coming.


    Even though Wu jiutu makes Xu Mi cautious, Xu Mi doesn''t care. He only cares about the life and death of Zhang Xiu.


    The rest, he doesn''t mind at all.

 Chapter 1202

    Although Xumi is on the border, he wants to kill Zhang Xiu. In this way, he can make great achievements. In particular, Xumi is very clear that the first thing for Zhang Xiu to go west to Dunhuang is to take maishan and his army. Zhang Xiu wants to live through maishan, but Xumi also wants to kill Zhang Xiu in maishan.


    Xu Mi immediately called to his ministry, ordered the next thing to do, then let the people under his command to prepare. Xu Mi himself came out of his own account and personally supervised the battle on the hillside.


    The slope of maishan is about 50 degrees, not steep. And the mountains are grass, no shrubs, no towering trees, is a slope highland.


    With the passage of time, the sun is gradually rising.


    It''s getting hot.


    "Newspaper!"


    A sentinel quickly climbed the mountain and came to Xumi''s side, reporting: "general, the Qin army is coming."


    "Ben will have seen it."


    Xu Mi stands on the mountain. Looking at the official road in the distance, he can clearly see the dark crowd on the official road in the distance. Even if it is because of the distance, I can''t see clearly for the moment, but I already know that the Qin army is coming.


    "The whole army is ready for war!"


    Xu Mi orders loudly.


    After this order was given, all the soldiers who had been in position in the trench were in spirits.


    The army of the mountain formation is also the preparation of the formation.


    It wasn''t long before the army led by Zhang Xiu arrived at the foot of maishan. Looking up from the foot of the mountain, because Mai mountain is undulating and continuous, although the mountain is not steep, but the mountain is very large, so you can clearly see the soldiers in the trench of the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu looked at it carefully. Her eyes turned and fell on the top of maishan mountain.


    At the top of the mountain in the distance, you can see the big flag flying.


    It represents the headquarters of the Kushan army and the location of Xumi.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the situation of the battlefield, did not arrange people to fight, also did not delay time. Now the army of Wu jiutu is about to arrive at maishan, and Zhang Xiu must take maishan in the shortest time.


    "Gan Ning, Gao Lan!"


    Zhang Xiu said.


    "Yes


    Gan Ning and Gao Lan should go down together.


    Both of them are full of fighting spirit.


    Because today''s army has been equipped with new weapons, which is enough to take maishan''s defenders by surprise.


    Zhang xiudao: "attack."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning and Gao Lan answered in one voice.


    The soldiers under the two men''s command were already ready, so after the order was given, the troops under the command of Gan Ning and Gao Lan each had 10000 elite soldiers to launch an attack and began to charge along maishan.


    Dense army, constantly up the mountain.


    When Xu Mi saw this scene, he raised a look of disdain, because his soldiers were superior. In particular, the Qin army is a direct attack. Such an attack is not difficult for Xumi.


    The idea is more empty.


    With the help of maishan, he wanted to consume the strength of the Qin army. After the Qin army was consumed, he launched an attack to defeat the Qin army and kill Zhang Xiu. As long as he killed Zhang Xiu, he made great contributions.


    With a wave of Xumi''s hand, his soldiers began to fight back.


    In the trench, some soldiers took up bows and arrows and shot at the soldiers charging down the mountain; others took out large stones and pushed them down directly, intending to kill the soldiers of the Qin army. Even more, there were still logs that fell from the hillside to hit the soldiers of the Qin army.


    This is something Xumi has already prepared.


    He has plenty of defensive equipment.


    With the help of trenches, guishuang kept on fighting, which hindered the Qin army. But Rao is so, wave after wave of Qin soldiers, it is constantly forward.


    In the middle of the day, near noon, the army at the foot of the mountain was already close to the trench at the bottom of the Kushan army. This trench is where logs and rolling stones fall.


    "Firearm camp, keep up!"


    Among the sprint generals, one of them called out.


    The name of the primary school is Gao Yuan, a general in the fierce tiger army. In fact, the soldiers he led, on the one hand, were the pioneers of the fierce attack, on the other hand, were the soldiers who covered the firearm camp.


    Soldiers in the firearm battalion are actually specially trained to throw grenades.


    After all, grenades have just been manufactured, and the time is too short to train all soldiers. Therefore, they can not be extended to all soldiers. We can only set up a firearm battalion temporarily to let special soldiers be responsible for throwing grenades.


    Under the cover of generals like Gao Yuan, all the soldiers of the firearm battalion still quickly came forward, took out the grenades in their pockets, opened the safety cover, and threw them into the ditch in front of them.


    A grenade, from the air across, accurately landed in the ditch."Boom! Boom! "


    The grenade fell and exploded.


    In a flash, the soil flew, and the soldiers in the trenches were blown off and fell to the ground.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    This scene, but make the Kushan soldiers in the ditch, all confused. No one thought that the Qin army should have such weapons. In particular, this weapon was never encountered by the Kushan army.


    Boom!!


    The explosion is still ringing.


    More and more grenades landed in the trenches, causing countless casualties.


    Gao Yuan exclaimed, "go, go!"


    The soldiers of the fierce tiger army under his command all rushed forward with Gao Yuan when the grenade exploded. After a short time, the dense Qin soldiers had already gone into the ditch and killed one by one guishuang soldiers.


    The first trench was taken down in a flash.


    High spirited, Gao Yuan exclaimed, "go with me, boys! Take down maishan and kill the Kushan people. "


    He took the lead.


    The officers and men under his command are constantly rushing forward.


    With the help of grenades from the firearm camp, the soldiers rushed up the moat one by one, getting closer and closer to the mountain. However, the guishuang Garrison under Xumi''s command was becoming more and more decadent.


    They couldn''t stop the Qin army.


    This scene, fell in the eyes of the empty peak.


    His face was cold and his eyes were solemn. He never thought that a face-to-face attack of the Qin army would destroy his defense in maishan. In particular, the sudden use of weapons by the Qin army caught Xu Mi unprepared and had no response measures at all.


    "General, I can''t stop it. The Qin army is less than 80 steps away from the top of our mountain. In particular, the Qin army has special weapons. If they attack, I''m afraid that in half an hour at most, the Qin army will break maishan''s defense. "


    Next to Xu MI, the staff spoke.


    Xumi clenched his fist, and his face was full of anger.


    He wanted to kill Zhang Xiu.


    When he was in maishan, he was waiting for Zhang Xiu to kill him. Then he intended to kill Zhang Xiu''s army. However, he did not expect that so many of his troops would be vulnerable in front of the Qin army.


    Xu Mi decisively ordered: "kill, give me all rushed up, the Qin army down."


    He can''t retreat now.


    Once retreated, maishan was lost.


    In particular, the army led by Wu jiutu is heading towards maishan. Under this premise, Xumi cannot retreat. Therefore, no matter how difficult the situation is, Wu would have to be nailed to maishan to resist the attack of the Qin army.

 Chapter 1203

    With Xumi''s order, the Kushan army stationed at the top of the mountain all rushed down the mountain. Now, it''s time to give up, because maishan can''t be lost. Once maishan was lost, the Qin army would march westward and be able to fight with the Kushan army.


    Therefore, no matter what, Xu MI can only bite his teeth.


    He can''t step back.


    As new troops entered the battlefield, the declining Kushan army was finally stopped.


    The two sides fought on Mount Mai.


    Today''s fighting is a close-up white-edged battle, and the grenade has lost its function. So the soldiers of the firearm battalion had retreated and avoided the battlefield.


    The army led by Gan Ning and Gao Lan kept on charging.


    The offensive is getting stronger and stronger.


    This is like a wave of general offensive, to the Kushan army caused great pressure. Even if there were fresh troops in Kushan, which hindered the Qin army''s attack, Gan Ning and Gao Lan rushed into the battle and sent their troops into the battlefield again.


    The two sides fought, even if the Kushan army resisted for a while, but with the passage of time, the two armies of the two sides faced each other, the Kushan army finally could not withstand the attack of the Qin army, and began to rout again and again.


    Even if there is a trench in maishan, it doesn''t work.


    Still unable to stop the Qin offensive.


    The strength of the Kushan army began to retreat.


    Xu Mi stood on the top of the mountain, watching the decadent scene of his soldiers, his face gradually became worried. Up to now, even if it''s empty, it''s hard to fight.


    Because defeat is a foregone conclusion.


    Xu Mi ordered: "pass my military order, withdraw."


    The messenger on one side got the order and immediately passed it on.


    "Pull out, full speed."


    The officers and men in the army are also shouting.


    "Withdraw


    "Withdraw


    One after another, the soldiers of Kushan began to retreat in panic.


    This retreat inspired the Qin army.


    The soldiers of Qin army yelled and rushed together to hide the retreating Kushan soldiers. Now the Qin army has already attacked the top of maishan mountain and started to slaughter wantonly.


    Gan Ning took the lead and rushed to the front. He is full of ideas, is to catch the empty. When he defeated modi in Zhangye County, the Qin army inquired about the situation of Dunhuang county and knew the emptiness of maishan.


    In addition, it is a special portrait.


    Therefore, no matter Gan Ning or Gao Lan, they all have a general understanding of Xu MI.


    Gan Ning led the troops to pursue and recognized Xu MI at a glance.


    "Where are the bandits running away?"


    Gan Ning roared and rushed forward quickly with a knife in his hand. Even if it''s on the hillside, it''s not difficult for Gan Ning to walk on the flat ground.


    The distance between the two sides has gradually shortened from more than 20 steps in the beginning to more than 10 steps.


    Gan Ning sprints with his sword. When he swings it, he brings out a flood of blood. All those who stand in front of Ganning are killed by him. Especially think of winning the merits of Xu MI, Gan Ning is like playing chicken blood, constantly forward.


    In less than half a quarter of an hour, the people of Ganning had already arrived behind Xumi.


    "Kill


    Gan Ning cut off with a knife.


    Xu Mi''s side, a pro with the knife grid block, but this pro with the steel knife, just and Ganning blade impact. The surging and unparalleled power gushed out. As soon as he met him, he had already knocked his own sword away.


    The blade continued to fall. With a pee, it cut the soldier''s skin and cut him in two.


    Blood spilled and splashed all over the body.


    Gan Ning continued to move forward, carrying a knife to sprint, in a twinkling of an eye, it has already approached the empty MI. At this moment, Gan Ning''s eyes twinkle with endless joy.


    Swing the long knife and cut it horizontally.


    Xumi is not a person who can''t master martial arts. He quickly mentions the sabre block. However, in front of Gan Ning, he was just like a child and had no strength to resist.


    A dull sound came out, and Xu MI was knocked to the ground.


    The two arms holding the hilt of the sword are even more painful.


    Gan Ning came forward with a lunge, and the long sword fell down. He stopped in front of Xu MI and directly controlled Xu MI. He waved and said, "come on, take Xu MI for me."


    The soldiers rushed up and quickly detained Xu MI.


    After Ganning took Xumi, he yelled: "Xumi is captured, and the one who comes down will not be killed."


    "If Xumi is captured, he will not be killed!"


    Soldiers in the army, follow the call.


    With the cry of more and more soldiers, the soldiers who could understand Chinese in the Kushan army were already flustered when they heard that Xumi had been taken. They no longer resisted and began to surrender. As more and more Kushan soldiers surrender, one after another, there are Kushan soldiers kneeling down to surrender.It''s not that the guishuang soldiers can''t resist, it''s that they can''t, especially at the foot of maishan mountain, there are countless Qin troops. Under such a premise, the Kushan army on maishan has lost its fighting spirit.


    It''s only an hour from winning the battle to ending the war.


    This war is over.


    After counting the war situation, Gan Ning, Gao Lan and others came to Zhang Xiu. Gan Ning couldn''t wait to say, "Your Majesty, in this battle, we killed more than 4000 Kushan soldiers and captured more than 20000. Moreover, the last general captured Xu MI, the chief General of the Kushan army. This man is also commander-in-chief Tu guishuang


    Zhang Xiu praised: "very good. With Xumi and more than 20000 Kushan prisoners, we have the first hand in the fight with wuyutau. If the order goes on, the army will be stationed in maishan for a while, waiting for Wujiu to slaughter. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning, Gao Lan and others immediately sent orders.


    The army settled down and waited.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu stopped and stationed, on the other side, the army led by Wu jiutu was approaching maishan. When Wu jiutu came near maishan, he got the news that Xumi was defeated and maishan changed its owner.


    When Wu jiutu got the news, he was very angry.


    Maishan is a strategic location.


    With maishan in hand, wuhutu could use maishan to block Zhang Xiu''s army to the east of maishan, making it impossible for Zhang Xiu''s army to enter Dunhuang county and wait for the army led by Wei sudiva to arrive.


    However, with the loss of Mai Shan, Wu Jiu Tu is very passive.


    Because wujitu has no fortifications.


    Wu on the Tu is also helpless.


    Especially after losing the fortifications of the front line, Wu jiutu still has to fight Zhang Xiu. He wants to defeat Zhang Xiu who is in maishan and seize the fortifications of maishan. The reason for this is that ujuatu was worried that when vesuva arrived, he would ask him about his sin. As long as Wu jiutu takes back maishan, even if maishan was once lost, there is nothing to say.


    The army led by Wu jiutu was on his way quickly. When he came to the foot of maishan mountain, Wu jiutu led his army.


    The black army stands tall.


    The whole army is full of murderous spirit.


    In his armor, Wu jiutu rode his horse to the front. He stroked his white beard under his jaw, but his eyes fell on the hillside of maishan mountain. Now the Qin army is in charge of maishan. If he wants to take back maishan, he can only attack by force.

 Chapter 1204

    When Wu jiutu led the troops, they were on the top of maishan mountain.


    Zhang Xiu is in the command post.


    Zhang Xiu clearly saw the guishuang army under the mountain, and ordered Ganning to bombard with artillery. At present, all the troops led by Wu jiutu gathered together, and the black crowd lined up. If one shot went on, countless people would be killed.


    Ganning heard Zhang Xiu''s command, but said: "Your Majesty, Hu Mo and others have not developed ammunition, so that our soldiers have not practiced. This cannon has never been operated before. It''s easy to go wrong! "


    This is the current flaw.


    Artillery bombing also needs enough ammunition to support training.


    There is not enough training to talk about accuracy, that is to play hooligans, is nonsense.


    After hearing Gan Ning''s words, Zhang Xiu claps her head and shakes her head. It''s because he ignores the fact that the soldiers haven''t practiced. Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "let''s go. I''ll take aim and let the soldiers light the fire."


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should go out of the command post with Zhang Xiu.


    Come to a gun layout position, Zhang Xiu one by one aiming, and then loading ammunition. After all the cannons were loaded, Zhang Xiu looked at the guishuang army in the lower formation of Yanshan.


    At this time, ujitu had not launched an attack.


    "Fire!"


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    The soldier in charge of the ignition was ordered to light the fuse immediately.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fuse burned quickly. Soon, with the sound of a boom, the fixed cannon made a huge noise. Each shell flew out from the top of the mountain and passed through parabola in the air. Then it went to the military array where wuyaotu was.


    Even if Wu heard the gunfire, he was too late to respond immediately.


    "Boom!"


    One shell fell into the crowd and exploded.


    In a flash, screams were heard everywhere.


    One by one, soldiers were killed, bodies flying and mud splashing.


    In particular, this group of bombing cannons, full of nine cannons, each cannonball fell on the soldiers of Kushan, so that under the explosion, the soldiers of ujitu were killed and injured hundreds of people immediately.


    The formation of the army is also in chaos.


    Everyone is worried that if there are a few more shots, they will be miserable.


    But when Zhang danxiu stops loading the gun, he doesn''t take any medicine. This round of loading and aiming didn''t take long. With Zhang Xiu''s order again, it was also a discussion that the artillery was fired, and the shells passed through the air and landed in the soldiers of Kushan.


    Wu bited his teeth and ordered the attack.


    He''s going to take maishan back.


    Only by taking back maishan and waiting for the arrival of visudiva, the great Kushan emperor, can he make amends. Wujiutu is a general stationed at the border, so it is very powerful to understand the character of vesutiva.


    If Mai Shan had not been lost, Wu would not have been accused.


    But if it is lost, he must be charged.


    Just in this way, uyutu would launch an attack and try to get maishan back before vesuva came.


    With the order of Wu Yutu, wave after wave of Kushan army kept on rushing forward. Now, it is safer for them to rush forward and stay where they are. On the contrary, they are easy to be bombarded.


    Therefore, the Kushan army is in full charge.


    Wu jiutu looked up at the mountain and frowned a little.


    Because the Qin army was more powerful than he expected, Wu jiutu was still worried.


    Can he get maishan back?


    This idea, also just in the blink of an eye, was again suppressed by Wu Jitu. Wu jiutu clenched his teeth and fixed his eyes on the soldiers rushing forward. No matter what, he must win this battle.


    He can''t lose!


    He knew visudeva, the great Kushan.


    Vasudeva didn''t need a defeated general. Once he was defeated, death would be the last thing waiting for him.


    "If the order goes on, who will be the first to climb Mt. maishan will be rewarded with 100 liang of gold and promoted to three levels. All those who kill the enemy will be rewarded. "


    Wu jiutu sits at the foot of the town and orders directly.


    With the order of Wu jiutu, the order spread to the attacking Kushan soldiers. Each Kushan soldier was excited. Wu jiutu always does what he says. Since he has said the order, he will carry it out.


    The Kushan army was full of morale and kept on attacking.


    Its offensive is more and more fierce.


    One by one, the soldiers of Kushan rushed forward quickly. Soon, they were close to the ditch at the bottom of the mountain. However, when the Kushan army approached, there was no explosive package bombing, no challenge wood rolling down, and no stone rolling down. To meet the Kushan army, the soldiers specialized in throwing grenades opened the lead and began to throw grenades.


    The light grenade fell into the crowd.


    Boom!!!


    The grenade exploded, and in a flash, the attacking guishuang soldiers answered to the end, bleeding from the mouth and nose, and died on the spot.The area of grenade explosion caused heavy losses to the Kushan soldiers.


    Grenades one by one, constantly throwing out.


    Explosions, one after another.


    The guishuang soldiers, who were attacking, were hindered to some extent. However, the troops under Wu jiutu''s command are not the empty 20000 or 30000. More than 60000 troops were brought by Wu jiutu this time. In particular, the officers and men in the army were excellent soldiers with strong fighting capacity. Therefore, under the constant rush of the Kushan soldiers, even if there are grenade obstacles, the Kushan soldiers still keep on rushing forward.


    When these kusana soldiers approached the bottom ditch, the soldiers who were responsible for throwing grenades had evacuated, and the remaining soldiers were elite soldiers who were responsible for fighting.


    Both sides are close to fighting.


    However, the soldiers who were in charge of throwing grenades also retreated to the bottom of the trench and threw grenades into the guishuang army which came down the mountain.


    The explosion is still ringing.


    As for the Kushan army, there were more and more casualties, but the offensive remained unchanged.


    More and more guishuang soldiers rushed down the mountain, and the trenches were broken. Guishuang soldiers were getting closer and closer to the mountain. Even now, grenades have gradually stopped throwing, because the scope of white-edged war is becoming larger and larger. Once grenades are thrown, they will blow up their own soldiers.


    The fighting between the two sides continues.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of Wu Jiu Tu at the foot of the mountain. Wu Jiu Tu looked excited and seemed to see hope.


    Take maishan. There''s a chance.


    When Wu jiutu was looking forward to it, Zhang Xiu looked at the scene of the battle in the command post on the top of the mountain, with a sharp look in her eyes, and said: "now Wu jiutu''s tens of thousands of troops have been put into the maishan battlefield. Now, it''s time to start the counterattack. "


    "Your Majesty''s order!"


    Gan Ning, Gao Lan, Zhao Yun and pound spoke together.


    All three are the chief generals in the army.


    The three of them were all fighting with high morale. This battle has lasted until now. Every heart has been looking forward to fighting and fighting back.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Ganning and pound, lead your troops from the top of maishan mountain, and kill them in one go. In this battle, we should be clean and clear, and defeat the other side in a decadent way. "


    "Here it is


    Ganning and pound should play at the same time.


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "Gaolan, send the order to your cavalry. They come out from the left wing on the north side of maishan, cut off the retreat of wujiutu, and begin to attack the wujiutu army at the foot of the mountain."


    "Here it is


    High view should be down again.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on Zhao Yun and said, "Zhao Yun, send orders to Baima Yicong under your command. Let them kill from the south side of maishan mountain, cut off wujitu''s retreat, and attack wujitu with Gaolan''s army. In this battle, we have to run away and slaughter. "


    "Yes, sir


    Zhao Yun also should be the next.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order of counterattack, the horn on the mountain suddenly rings. The sound of the bugle sounded, mighty, surging, people all over the blood boiling.


    All the soldiers who have been killed know that they need to start a counterattack. They need to cheer up one by one and get involved in the battlefield quickly.


    The Qin army on the mountain was killed on a large scale.


    After this new force entered the battlefield, the original stalemate of the battlefield was immediately reversed. Wu jiutu''s army can no longer stabilize the situation, let alone continue to rush up the mountain, and has begun to retreat on a large scale.


    In terms of guishuang, it''s totally unstoppable.


    The Qin army was too strong.


    In fact, in terms of the number of troops, the number of Zhang Xiu''s three armies far exceeds that of Wu Jitu. Zhang Xiu has been fighting for a long time. Every time after the war, he will replenish his troops in place. Therefore, the number of the three armies has never been reduced.


    The Qin army not only had a large number of troops, but also occupied the advantage of maishan. Under the Qin army under Zhang Xiu''s command, guishuang army could not stop it at all, and was soon suppressed to withdraw from the trench at the bottom of the mountain.


    The troops of Kushan are still retreating.


    The trend of its retreat is faster and faster.


    The curtain fell on Wu jiutu''s eyes. Wu jiutu''s cheek twitched and his heart suddenly rose with endless regret.


    He regretted attacking maishan.


    Before attacking maishan, even if his great general Xumi was defeated and lost maishan, this matter was known by weisudiva. Even if he was dismissed or even disposed of, it would not be as miserable as it is now.


    Not only did he fail to break maishan, but he also failed to avenge himself. On the contrary, he suffered heavy losses.


    His army suffered a great loss.


    But all this, there is no regret medicine, Wu Tu has now been in trouble.

 Chapter 1205

    "Kill


    All of a sudden, a loud voice came from the right side of Wu jiutu.


    When Wu jiutu heard the sound, he turned his head and saw a black thread in the distance. As the black line wriggled, the cries of killing came one after another, accompanied by the roaring sound of horses'' hooves, which was deafening.


    Brush!


    Wu jiutu''s face changed greatly.


    The back road was taken.


    Wu jiutu did not expect that he had just led his troops to maishan, but was ambushed by Zhang Xiu, so that now his back road was cut off.


    "Wu jiutu, take your life!"


    At this time, there are shouts.


    When Wu jiutu heard the sound, he looked again, but on the left side of his rear, he saw the sound of shouting and killing and the sound of horses'' hooves. The dark horses rush and trample on the ground. Even Wu Jitu, who is far away, can feel the tremor of the ground.


    The two cavalry came in a fierce way.


    The momentum is ferocious.


    It is irresistible.


    The expression on Wu jiutu''s face changed again and again, sometimes black and sometimes red, but in the end, it turned pale. In the eyes of Wu jiutu''s face, there was a look of despair.


    He turned his head to the top of maishan mountain and looked in the direction of Qin army headquarters.


    He was puzzled.


    When Zhang Xiu''s army set up the battle, he sent someone to block his way in the early morning. Could it be that Zhang Xiu was sure to win in the early days. But now, it is meaningless for Wu jiutu to consider these. Wujiutu is now facing a situation in which the Qin army came down from maishan before and two cavalry troops from the Qin army after. It can be said that there is no way out.


    The cries of killing are still ringing one after another.


    More and more Qin soldiers are shouting.


    This momentum made the soldiers of Kushan army under Wu jiutu feel scared and even more frightened. Under the unfavorable situation, the morale of the army has completely disintegrated.


    We can no longer rally our fighting spirit.


    The Kushan army is over.


    Wu jiutu knew that he must have been defeated in this battle, and he was also extremely disappointed.


    If Rao is so, Wu jiutu is not far away from giving up.


    If he loses, he can fight again.


    As long as you''re alive, there''s still a chance. Even after the evacuation, the army that returned to vesutiva would be dealt with by vesutiva, and he was not willing to give up.


    For an old fox like Wu jiutu, he has lived for decades and is used to numerous storms. He thinks that as long as he is alive, as long as he has a breath, then everything will have a chance.


    "Withdraw, full speed


    Wu jiutu gave a loud order.


    With the order issued, accompanied by the sound of Dang Dang, the Kushan soldiers who had been retreating began to retreat.


    No one is in charge of any generals, no one is going to protect any superior officers, just want to retreat, first save their own lives, and then consider other issues.


    The dark crowd retreated, but it was extremely scattered.


    The Qin army in the rear came to kill and entered the Kushan army. Where they passed, one by one Kushan soldiers were killed. When the soldiers of Kushan were killed with fear, there were those who surrendered. More and more Kushan soldiers threw away their weapons and gave up fighting.


    This situation promoted the Qin army to pursue faster and fiercer.


    The army continued to pursue.


    The Kushan army was a total failure.


    Wu jiutu knew that the army had been defeated. He didn''t do it any more. What he thought was to retreat.


    Evacuate first.


    Wu jiutu led his troops to retreat quickly. His horse was on his way at full speed, and he was accompanied by cavalry. In a short time, the cavalry led by Wu jiutu had already met Baima Yicong, who had killed him. Both sides had already fought together.


    The white horse and the cavalry are all elite.


    Big guns were flying in the air. Only the sound of puffing and puffing came out. More and more guishuang cavalry fell down and were killed by Baima Yicong.


    On the other hand, Gao Lan''s cavalry are also killing.


    After the two cavalry joined, they blocked the way of uytu.


    In particular, Wu jiutu himself is very old. He rides on his horse, but he can''t fight in person. He still needs protection around him. When the soldiers around Wu Yutu were slaughtered, he was exposed to the cavalry of Bai Ma Yicong. Seeing the big guns coming, he put his legs in the belly of the horse, raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender.


    "Take it!"


    The general of Baima Yicong ordered.


    With the soldiers taking wujitu, Baima Yicong is still killing.


    At first, only a few cavalry around him knew the news that Wu jiutu had been taken. But in a moment, the news had spread all over the country. The cavalry who had been guarding the retreat of ujitu gave up resistance and did not fight any more. As for the guishuang army who was fleeing later, when they learned that wuyutau had been taken, they also gave up their escape and chose to surrender in situ.


    This Kushan army was completely defeated.So it is. The war is still going on.


    There is still a death battle for Kushan''s army.


    The war lasted nearly an hour before it was completely over.


    By this time, Gan Ning, Gao Lan and Zhao Yun had come up from the rear, and the three men, with their respective troops, began to clean up the battlefield. After all, the fighting on the battlefield was fierce, and the cleaning of the battlefield was almost finished in the evening.


    The auxiliary soldiers in the army have begun to cook.


    Up and down the wheat mountain, there is a smell of meat.


    Ganning, Gaolan and Zhao Yun came to the mountain together and met Zhang Xiu at the headquarters.


    Gan Ning still took the lead, he said: "Your Majesty, we have completely annihilated the wujiutu army in this war. The number of prisoners was close to 50000 and more than 10000 were killed. Not only that, but also captured guishuang commander Wu jiutu alive. "


    After a pause, Gan Ning said again: "our soldiers lost more than 2600 soldiers and died. This battle, we can be described as a complete victory, is still achieved rich results


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in praise.


    It is absolutely worth the loss of more than 2000 yuan in exchange for the victory of this war.


    Guo Jia sat aside and said, "Your Majesty, we captured Xumi and his army in the first battle of maishan. Now, he has captured uytu and the army led by uytu. According to the old rule, all prisoners are to be sold. But what should we do with these generals? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "all the generals of the Kushan army will be detained in the army for the time being. As for the rest of the prisoners, they were still dealt with according to the previous rules. The total number of prisoners this time is nearly 80000. This group of captives, for us, can be exchanged for countless money and food. "


    He looked at Pang Tong not far away and said, "Shi Yuan, you are always responsible for the trafficking of prisoners. This time, you are still in charge. Now, as for Kushan, the army of vesudeva is about to arrive. You should dispose of all the prisoners as soon as possible. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong bowed himself.


    For Pang Tong, this is a familiar thing, very simple.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and then said, "now, we have gained a lot in every battle, and we have gained a lot. The army got a lot of money because of the war. But in every war, we lose. I plan to increase the pension for soldiers by 30% on the basis of the original pension. In addition, the salaries of officers and men in the army were increased by 10%. What do you think? "


    Pang Tong immediately said, "Your Majesty, I agree. As the saying goes, if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. The officers and men in the army are our sharp tools. All along, our officers and men of the Qin army are famous for their daring to fight and kill. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "the reason for this depends on your Majesty''s respect and preferential treatment for the soldiers. Therefore, the soldiers use their lives to conquer the enemy and win the battle. Now that the treatment of the soldiers has been raised again, I expect that the soldiers in the army will be grateful to your majesty and will do their best to serve your majesty. "


    Xun Yu nodded: "today''s finance can be steadily supported, so your Majesty''s decision, I also agree."


    "I agree!"


    Guo Jia followed.


    Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and other military generals are even more happy.


    As soldiers in the army, they know that it''s not easy for them, so now Zhang Xiu''s decision is unanimously agreed by everyone. Everyone agrees with Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a whisk, way: "since all have no objection, so settled."

 Chapter 1206

    Dunhuang county.


    An army, moving fast.


    This army winds for several miles, mighty and powerful.


    The middle of the army.


    An elephant is walking slowly.


    On the back of this elephant, there is a couch, on which a middle-aged man sits. This man is very cold and sharp in appearance, with eight character eyebrows, beard and curly beard under his jaw, which makes his whole person cold and sharp and rough.


    He has short hair.


    It''s very smart.


    The clothes on my body are very simple, not satin. But it was he who was sitting on the couch, but he was dignified, not angry, giving people a very sharp feeling.


    This is Vasudeva.


    He is the king of Kushan Empire, and is called Kushan emperor. He slightly narrowed his eyes, as if to rest, but the slightly open eyes, but also as if to sleep, let people in front of him, dare not have the slightest relaxation.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, there was a call from the sentinel ahead.


    "Da! Dada


    The sound of horse''s hooves resounded through the air.


    One man and one rider came back quickly. Where the sentry had passed, the soldiers retreated one after another and did not dare to stop them.


    Soon after, the sentry rode to the throne of vesudeva. The sentry didn''t ride near, so he got off his horse ahead of time. He came to Vasudeva''s side, knelt down on one knee and reported: "great emperor, there are war reports on the front line."


    At the elephant''s side, an attendant took over immediately.


    Meanwhile, the elephant stops.


    The attendant stepped on the ladder next to the elephant and handed the letter to Vasudeva.


    Vasudeva looked calm and tore the letter. When he finished reading the contents of the letter, his cold eyebrows were even more angry. It seemed that he wanted to choose someone to eat, with great terror.


    This scene greatly increased the pressure of the people around.


    Each one was very careful.


    At this time, it was certain that she would die if she was offended by vesudeva.


    "Emperor, what happened?"


    The speaker was an old man in his fifties. His back was slightly bent, but his eyes were vast and deep. His name was Seneca, and he was the national teacher and chief counselor of Vasudeva.


    Weisutiva said in a deep voice: "the news from the front line is that maishan, located at the border of Dunhuang County, was lost, and maishan''s guard general Xumi was defeated and captured. In addition, uytu, who was stationed at the border, was also defeated and captured. This time, we have lost nearly 100000 people. "


    Brush!


    Seneca''s face also changed greatly.


    One hundred thousand people is not a small number. Such an army is enough to wipe out a country.


    In particular, modi''s attack on Daqin destroyed more than 100000 troops.


    The two losses are combined, and the whole Kushan army has lost more than 200000 people. Such a loss, even if the Kushan Empire has a deep foundation, can not be sustained.


    "Tu Xuwei''s family was ordered to die. Such a waste, his family is also a waste, leaving it useless. "


    "Not the emperor!"


    Senegalen answered hastily.


    He had a dignified look in his eyes. The great emperor was good at everything, but he was a bit tyrannical in nature. He was ready to kill people, and even killed people everywhere. This practice has always been opposed by Seneca.


    She said, "Seneca, are you going to be a good man again to help these damned rubbish? Do you want to dissuade me?"


    Seneca bowed and said solemnly, "great emperor, this is the critical moment for us to fight against the Qin Dynasty. At this time, if the family members of wuyutau and Xumi were killed, the news will surely make people think that the great emperor has changed on the front line. "


    "I''m afraid it will cause domestic unrest."


    "Moreover, if we kill Wu Jiu Tu and Xu Mi''s family now, it will inevitably shake the morale of the army."


    "Therefore, the old minister suggested that the crimes of wuyutau and Xumi should be recorded for the time being. After the end of the war, the family members of wuyutau and Xumi should be dealt with."


    Seneca said, "please let the great emperor know."


    After hearing this, Vasudeva nodded, her face was full of praise, and her anger faded slightly. But in her heart, she was still very angry. She said in a deep voice, "either modi or ujitu, it''s bad for me."


    Seneca said: "great emperor, this Daqin is not a weak one, it is a very strong country. It takes a lot of thought, money and material resources to destroy Daqin. It''s also very normal to encounter difficulties for a while. "


    "Seneca, what shall we do now that all the front lines are broken down?" said vesudeva


    Seneca said: "still continue to advance, according to the war report so far. Zhang Xiu''s army is still stationed on the front line of maishan and has not withdrawn. This means that the next battlefield must be in maishan. Now, we just need to continue to push forward. When we get close to maishan, we can withdraw and camp. "


    "It makes sense," said vesuva"Newspaper!"


    At this time, another sentry Pegasus withdrew. Sentinel came to the side of Wei Su diva, once again reported: "inform the emperor, the front line has news back, please read."


    Vasudeva took the letter. When he opened it, she looked even more livid, and her eyes were burning. Wei Su''s mother-in-law directly waved away the letter and said angrily, "Zhang Xiu is hateful, damn Zhang Xiu. If you don''t kill Zhang Xiu, the emperor will never give up. I will definitely catch Zhang Xiu and let him live or die. "


    He was furious.


    Such a visudeva is very rare. But now, it''s exposed in everyone''s eyes.


    This scene surprised Seneca.


    What''s going on?


    What happened in the end that made vesuva so angry.


    Even after he had been following her for nearly ten years, even though she had a cold face, she was not a person who showed her emotions casually.


    But today, because of Zhang Xiu''s affair, Wei SUDI''s wife is constantly angry.


    This is too rare.


    Seneca bent down and picked up the letter that had fallen on the ground. After looking at it quickly, he was also shocked. However, he sighed again in his heart, rather helpless.


    The information in the letter is that Pang Tong regarded the Kushan soldiers as slaves and sold them. You should know that now the troops of the Kushan empire are nearly 200000 defeated, and the troops of 178000 are in the hands of Zhang Xiu. But all the prisoners are treated as slaves and then sold.


    In such a situation, vesuva was angry and could not suppress her anger.


    Even Seneca is the same.


    I can''t suppress anger.


    After all, those who were sold were the sons of Kushan, and all of them were treated as slaves.


    Seneca said: "great emperor, it''s really hateful for Daqin to do this. Zhang Xiu is really very treacherous. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu wants to irritate you. He also asked the emperor to calm down so that he could fight with Zhang Xiu. If the emperor with anger, and Zhang Xiu war, it is bound to affect your judgment. Such a mentality is not suitable for war. "


    "I know!"


    Vasudeva clenched her teeth and said, "but even if I know, I can''t stop getting angry. Zhang Xiu is really hateful. Guoshi, if it were you, would you be able to suppress your anger? "


    When senejaden came, he did not speak.


    When it comes to him, he can''t be sure to be angry.


    A moment later, Seneca said: "what we have to do now is to go all out. Strive to arrive at maishan as soon as possible, and then defeat Zhang Xiu to get revenge. It''s useless to be angry now. What we have to do now is to write down the harm Zhang Xiu has done to us, and then take revenge. "


    Vasudeva said, "that''s all. I know."


    "The great emperor is wise!"


    There was a look of relief on Seneca''s face. What he was most worried about was that Vasudeva became angry and lost her mind, which was extremely undesirable for the army.

 Chapter 1207

    The army led by Vasudeva did not delay because of Xumi and wujiutu, but continued to move forward. When Vasudeva''s army arrived at the front line of maishan, the army stationed far away from maishan.


    After all, the army came from a long way and was a tired division. Therefore, vesudeva did not attack. The army was stationed, and the camp layout was very strict and well guarded.


    This situation also spread to maishan.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that the army of Wei sudiva had arrived, she personally went outside Wei sudiva''s camp to observe the layout of Wei sudiva''s camp from a distance. After all, Vasudeva had a large army of more than 200000 people. Hundreds of thousands of people are stationed in the camp, which covers an extremely large area.


    In particular, Wei sudiva''s defense was strict, and Zhang Xiu saw that she had no chance to break it, so she took people back.


    After returning, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren entered together.


    Gan Ning said, "Your Majesty, the army of Vasudeva has come all the way. It''s a tired division. If you take people to the camp of vesuvativa to have a look, will we have a chance to attack overnight? "


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, she also showed a look of prudence, and said: "this person, Wei sudiva, is quite difficult, not easy to deal with. The camp set up by such people is also heavily guarded. We have no chance to break each other''s camp. "


    "Alas..."


    Gan Ning sighed with regret.


    Even though the number of Kushan troops is large, up to more than 200000, for Gan Ning, it is a common practice for Daqin to win more with less. Therefore, he believes that Daqin is not afraid of Kushan even with less manpower.


    He dares to fight.


    The fierce tigers under his command also dare to fight.


    Even after several wars, the liehu army has recruited new soldiers to enter, but the combat effectiveness of the liehu army is no less than that of the former.


    Gao Lan''s eyes turned and said, "Your Majesty, it''s not easy to deal with Kushan. Then, can we feint, attract the Kushan army to pursue and ambush on the way? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "at the start of the war in the evening, all those who use the military know that the poor are not to be chased and the poor are not to be entered. In particular, it''s still a big night. It''s almost impossible for us to bring out the Kushan army. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, the soldier entered and said, "Your Majesty, commander Guo, please see me."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    After Zhang Xiu gave the order, the soldiers went to inform him, and then Guo Jia entered from outside the camp. After bowing to Zhang Xiu, he took a seat in the tent.


    Zhang xiudao said, "fengxiao came late at night. What''s the matter?"


    Guo Jia replied: "tell your majesty, I''m here now. I hope your majesty won''t take the initiative to attack and defend for the time being."


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Guo Jia replied, "to your majesty, there are three reasons why I put forward the proposal of defending as an attack."


    "Guo Jia said:" Your Majesty is just trying. It''s no harm. Even, I think I can take this opportunity to stimulate Vasudeva. We have prisoners like Xumi and wuyutau in our hands, and we have an advantage. "


    "That''s true!"


    Zhang Xiu also agreed with Guo Jia''s suggestion.


    Although all the prisoners of Kushan in the army have been disposed of, in fact, such Kushan generals as Wu Jiu Tu and Xu MI are all in custody for future use.


    Zhang Xiu discussed with Guo Jia and others about the next detailed plans and details, and then waved Guo Jia, Zhao Yun and others to step down and turn around to have a rest.


    The night passed safely.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early for morning exercises. After breakfast, Zhang Xiu takes a team of white horse Yicong under Zhao Yun, escorts Wu jiutu, Xu MI and other military generals of Kushan, and starts to go to the camp of Kushan army.


    This time, there were only a thousand troops.


    There are not many people.


    But they''re all elite.


    Even in the face of war, Zhang Xiu can quickly lead Baima Yi to retreat from the army, and can come and go like the wind.

 Chapter 1208

    Zhang Xiu with white horse righteousness from the fast road, a horse gallop, trampling on the ground, splashing a dust. Zhang Xiu took a few people with her, but there were many generals around her, including Lv Bu, Zhao Yun, and Sha Moke.


    Up to now, in fact, there is less chance of war.


    After all, there are firearms.


    With more and more investment in firearms, especially more and more invention of firearms, the so-called war of arms will be even less. Because you come forward to fight, you may be killed by a firearm.


    Not long, Zhang Xiu led the army, came to the army camp outside Kushan.


    "Woo! Woo


    The soldier took out his horn and blew it.


    The sound of the trumpet resounded in the air. With this sound, the camp of the Kushan army soon gathered, and even the great Kushan emperor vesudeva and the national master Seneca came out with them.


    Zhang Xiu saw a large army gathering in the barracks, and also saw Wei sudiva, who was standing in the front and dressed extraordinary. One person, all standing half a step behind Vasudeva.


    Such a situation is enough to show the identity of vesudeva.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wei Su, I am Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Today, I come to fight with my troops. At the same time, I want you to have a look at my achievements. "


    His words are relayed by people who know the language.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s name, Wei Su''s mother-in-law immediately showed a sense of killing. He almost can''t control, to directly lead the troops to kill, directly encircle and suppress Zhang Xiu outside the camp.


    However, this idea was stopped by vesudeva.


    "The great emperor, please fight."


    At this time, one of the great generals under the command of Vasudeva asked to fight.


    This person is barearm, the upper part of the bulging muscles exposed in the air, very explosive. His name was amo, a great general under the command of vesudeva. He raised his eyebrows, showed his intention to kill in his eyes, and said: "Zhang Xiu, with a small number of soldiers, has fallen into the trap. At the end of the day, he led the soldiers out and took Zhang Xiu with one go. "


    "No way!"


    Vasudeva shook her head and refused.


    AMO said, "emperor, why not?"


    Wei sudiva said: "as the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary person. In particular, both modi and ujitu are resourceful people. But the army led by these two men is all planted in Zhang Xiu''s hands. "


    "It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is not simple."


    "Would such a shrewd man come with only a few soldiers and let you encircle and suppress him?"


    "No way."


    Wei sudiva''s face was a little sharp, and she said in a deep voice: "if the emperor expected it to be right, there must be an ambush on the back half way of Zhang Xiu. There must be an army ambush. You lead the troops to kill, and after a little fight with Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu retreats, and once you lead the troops to pursue. In the end, you must fall into the ambush of Zhang Xiu. "


    "Ah


    AMO heard a scream.


    Seneca stroked the white beard under his jaw and praised: "the analysis of the great emperor is very reasonable. In today''s situation, it is not appropriate to send troops on a large scale. Because at the moment, it''s not clear what Zhang Xiu''s intention is. "


    When amo heard the words, he stopped talking.


    Wei Su''s eyes, however, fell on Zhang Xiu''s body. With a cold face, he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, you come with the army. On the surface, only a thousand soldiers were exposed, hiding the army in the dark. Well, you can''t cheat people with such a trick. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, very happy.


    Unexpectedly, Wei sudiva''s brain was so full. This time, he was dressed lightly. There was no big army ambushing him. In fact, there were more than a thousand white horses around him.


    After laughing, Zhang Xiu said, "you really know me, so does Wei sudiva. I didn''t expect that you could see through my little trick. Vasudeva, since you have seen through it, how dare you send troops to fight? "


    She said, "I can''t guess what danger you have set up. Since I can''t guess, I can''t send troops. Zhang Xiu, if you have the ability, you can attack directly! "


    Zhang Xiu wants to laugh in her heart.


    Wei sudiva has some meaning, but she is sentimental. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiu didn''t bring the army.


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve flicked and said, "Wei sudiva, I''m not here to attack. Now, I want you to have a look at the achievements I have made after the continuous fighting. "


    "Come on, bring people out."


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand to brush her sleeve and gave an order.


    In an instant, the soldiers escorted out one by one. They were the generals of the Kushan army, such as Wu Jiu Tu and Xu MI. All of these prisoners are wilting. After all, in maishan military camp, Zhang Xiu didn''t give any good food. She just asked the soldiers to give food to Wu jiutu and others to ensure that they would not die of hunger.


    Zhang Xiu said, "do you see Wei sudiva? These people are all the generals under your command. They are all the generals in your Kushan army. But now, they are all my prisoners. As long as I give an order, they will all die. "Vasudeva''s face darkened.


    Vasudeva had always been extremely conceited. He was proud and could not tolerate any mistakes. But now, no matter Wu jiutu or Xu MI, they are all in custody, and the main generals of guishuang become the captives of Zhang Xiu.


    Especially in front of the two armies.


    This makes visutiva lose face.


    Wei sutiva said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want to do? Are you going to use these defeated generals to threaten the emperor? If so, you are wrong. The emperor is here, free from any threat. "


    "Wrong, not threatening you."


    Zhang Xiu put a smile on her lips and said, "I''m escorting them to do business with you. It''s up to you, Vasudeva, if you will


    Vasudeva''s brows rose.


    Originally present sharp eyebrows, at this moment, it turned into eight character eyebrows, more sharp.


    "What kind of business?" said Vasudeva


    Zhang Xiubai pointed to Wu jiutu, Xu MI and others, and said in a voice: "these prisoners of Kushan are all generals in the army. It''s not easy to cultivate them. It would be a pity for the Kushan kingdom to kill them. So now, I''ll give you a chance to redeem them. "


    Vasudeva was silent when she heard the words.


    No matter Wu jiutu, Xu MI and other generals, they are all experienced.


    It''s a pity these people died.


    Especially before the battle of the two armies, if Vasudeva didn''t care about the lives of Wu jiutu and others, it would easily chill the hearts of the generals in the army. So after a moment''s silence, she said, "well, what are your requirements for Zhang Xiu?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "my conditions are very simple. You, Wei sudiva, not only want to quit Dunhuang County, but also give me ten Kushan cities on the border of Dunhuang county. In this way, I will release them. In this war, you, Vasudeva, will withdraw unconditionally. "


    "No way!"


    After hearing this, Vasudeva refused without hesitation.


    He looks cold and fierce, said: "Zhang Xiu, you this is a lion big mouth, completely without any sincerity."


    Zhang Xiu said: "the conditions I put forward are just the most sincere. Because in Daqin, we attach great importance to talents. An important talent, not to mention ten cities, even twenty and thirty cities, can be exchanged for one talent, which is worth it. Because it''s easy for a thousand troops to get a general, but hard to get one. "


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    "I didn''t expect that you, Vasudeva, were also short-sighted. You would rather keep the cold city than exchange for your own general. It''s a pity that Wu jiutu and others were loyal."


    Zhang Xiu began to attack Wei sudiva with words.


    This is to take advantage of this to break down the morale of the Kushan army and weaken the combat effectiveness of the other side.

 Chapter 1209

    In the heart of Vasudeva, she was furious.


    Zhang Xiu is abominable!


    This damned Zhang Xiu, with the help of prisoners, attacks the soldiers under his command. Although she was strict and conceited, she was also proficient in the art of war, so she had a clear insight into Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    Wei sutiva said: "Zhang Xiu, it''s not that the emperor doesn''t exchange for them, it''s that the conditions you offer are too harsh. If you want to get ten cities in exchange for some prisoners, it''s wishful thinking. "


    He is very firm in his views.


    It is impossible to change ten cities just for Wu Jiu Tu, Xu MI and others.


    This is not equivalent.


    Zhang Xiu shrugged her shoulders and said with emotion: "you see, this is what I mentioned. You''d rather stay in the cold city than exchange for your generals or loyal subordinates. Let alone the so-called unequal value, let alone their ability, their loyalty is priceless. "


    Wei sutiva said: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to have flowers, I can''t agree with you. Under the rule of this emperor, it is impossible to hand over the city to the defeated general. "


    "What a pity, what a pity!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help feeling.


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu took a breath, turned to the Kushan army, and said in a loud voice: "the officers and men of Kushan, do you see the temperament of Wei sudiva?"


    "For the sake of her own interests, she would rather give up her subordinates than give up her city."


    "Vasudeva is a tyrant."


    "It''s more headstrong."


    "As the emperor of Kushan, he ignores his subordinates so much. What''s the point of following such a king? I don''t know when you will be abandoned. "


    Zhang Xiu tosses the ground to have a voice way: "you follow him, have no future.". As long as you are willing to enter Daqin, I''m in Daqin, waiting for you. Please believe that I will not abandon you. Because there is a foundation for me to govern the army and the country, that is, not to abandon, not to give up, not to abandon any comrade in arms, not to give up any of my comrades. "


    After these words came out, there was a cry in the army.


    A thousand soldiers of the Qin army who came with Zhang Xiu cried long live.


    Even though the number of soldiers is small, the cry of these 1000 soldiers is like a sharp sword, which pierces the sky in an instant and penetrates the sky, making people shocked.


    Vasudeva''s face was very angry.


    Zhang Xiu this is in front of all the soldiers, openly dig his corner, is openly ridicule him.


    He had no face.


    Instead of ordering an attack, vesudeva ordered, "amo, how dare you go to war. Zhang Xiu is so rampant. The emperor wants to see how he can deal with it. "


    "Yes


    Amod ordered him to turn over and get on the horse. He took a shot from the soldier and rushed out.


    "Kill


    AMO''s mouth, low roar.


    In his eyes, there was a strong sense of war. He was sure to win this battle.


    We will never fail.


    Speaking late and fast, amo was in front of Zhang Xiu''s two armies in a twinkling of an eye. Ma Shuo in his hand pointed to Zhang Xiu''s position and exclaimed: "Zhang Xiu, general amo, do you dare to fight? In the final analysis, it depends on your strength. If your strength is not strong, everything is in vain


    "Zhang Xiu, the dog thief, dare to fight!"


    AMO tried to roar.


    The deep and loud voice reverberated outside the camp, more clearly spread to the ears of the soldiers on both sides.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to smile.


    On the one hand, he came here to fight against vesudeva''s morale; on the other hand, he came here to fight. Just so, Zhang Xiucai came with Lu Bu and shamoko. In particular, today''s Lu Bu is no longer young, but his own martial arts have made a breakthrough in recent years. Further, a painting halberd appears and disappears, and the killing power is even greater.


    It''s overwhelming.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s martial arts are superb, it will take a lot of effort to defeat Lv Bu.


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    Lu Bu was full of war in his eyes. He asked for war with Fang Tianhua halberd.


    "Your Majesty, please fight at the end!"


    Shamoko followed suit.


    The rest of the generals, all ready to fight, want to stand out in this battle.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Fengxian, I''m waiting for your good news."


    "I will live up to your Majesty''s expectations!"


    Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard that. He held Fang Tianhua halberd in his right hand and shook his horse reins in his left. The red rabbit horse in the crotch is like an arrow from the string, so it can kill quickly.


    Red rabbit galloped and turned into a fiery red light. In a twinkling of an eye, he had already stepped into the battlefield. Lu Bu didn''t say a word. When he got close to amo, Fang Tianhua halberd in his hand had been swung up and cut down.Whew!


    The halberd blade broke through the air, leaving only a shadow in the air.


    When amo saw the falling halberd, he was also surprised. He didn''t expect that the speed of his opponent''s hand was so fast. AMO quickly picked up the horse in his hand and went up to block it.


    Suddenly, amo''s face changed greatly.


    Because the horse that he put up the block failed, Fang Tian''s painting halberd didn''t fall.


    The next moment, the sound of breaking the air came out from under amo''s belly again, but Fang Tian''s painting halberd had been lifted up and cut out. Just now, Lu Bu made a move to attract amog to block him. Then Fang Tian painted the halberd in the air and lifted it from the bottom up.


    This move is as fast as lightning.


    AMO didn''t have time to resist. The blade had already split his skin. He bared it and forced it into his body.


    "Poof!"


    The blood splashed and dyed amo''s clothes red.


    The next moment, amo screamed and fell to the ground. That fall on the ground of amo, chest flesh and blood fly, already is by Lu Bu this move open intestines broken belly.


    One face to face, amo was killed.


    After Lu Bu killed amo, his face was still a look of Gujing bubo. But the halberd in his hand, with blood, rose little by little, aiming at the position of vesuvata.


    "Do you dare to fight, Vasudeva?"


    Lu Bu suddenly roared.


    His voice was thick and loud, which was strong and magnificent and spread to the army of Kushan. One by one, looking at Lu Bu''s wanton and ferocious manner, they all felt numb and afraid.


    AMO''s strength is also very strong.


    There were several tiger generals in the army, but amo was killed in front of Lu Bu. Such a result makes all the Kushan soldiers scared.


    Vasudeva''s face was even more livid.


    Originally, Wei sudiva wanted to use amo to fight in tetany, so as to reverse the defeat. At least, she encouraged her soldiers to do her best. However, she did not expect that amo''s tetany made Zhang Xiu successful.


    It once again made the Qin army raise its prestige.


    Hit yourself again.

 Chapter 1210

    As the great emperor of Kushan, vesuva is certainly proud of the king of a country. In the face of Lu Bu''s tetany, as long as there is nothing to do, it is impossible to take the initiative to admit counseling. If he admits defeat, where can he put aside the face of Kushan Kingdom, and how can he convince all the soldiers?


    Therefore, it is impossible for Vasudeva to avoid fighting.


    Weisudiva said: "Lv Bu is so rampant. Who dares to kill this man for our emperor. If you kill this person, I will reward a city as a fief. It will be hereditary. "


    Boom!!


    The generals were shocked to hear that.


    There seemed to be thunder in their heads. They were all shocked by the awards given by Vasudeva. But in the next moment, there was light in their eyes, because the reward given by Vasudeva was really excellent.


    A city as a feudal city, but also hereditary.


    It''s a title.


    A title that can be passed down from generation to generation.


    In such a situation, no one can be indifferent to it. So much so that the generals of the Kushan army have been talking about it, and many people are ready to fight.


    "The great emperor, please fight."


    At this time, another person came out.


    His name is Tu Tuona. He is nearly nine feet long. He has a lion''s mouth, a broad nose, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has a pair of Qiu beards under his jaw. He is very tough. His nine foot height, just standing on the ground, gives people a hill like feeling.


    Tutuna was holding a huge axe in his hand.


    This axe weighs more than 60 Jin. With one axe in hand, it is ferocious and powerful.


    Looking at tutuna, she nodded and said, "tutuna, your martial arts are very good. I hope that you can take the lead and take Lv Bu''s head. I hope you will live up to your expectations. "


    Tu Tuona held his head high and said, "don''t worry, Emperor. I will kill Lv Bu. In my eyes, such a person as Lu Bu is just a slightly more powerful person, not worth mentioning. "


    "Kill


    Tutuo gave a low drink.


    At that time, Tu Tuo had already driven his horse out.


    "Lu Bu, take your life!"


    Tu Tuo''s eyes were round, and his eyes were round, which burst out a strong sense of killing. The horse galloped down. After a while, Tu Tuo was in front of Lv Bu. He swung his axe and cut it off.


    The edge of the axe fell and the momentum was fierce.


    Lu Bu, however, was not afraid. He turned his painting halberd in the air and welcomed it.


    "Dang!"


    There was a violent crash.


    Under the impact of peiran''s strength, Lu Bu and Tu Tuona''s arms hurt.


    It''s just that they''re too powerful.


    "Come again!"


    Lu Bu''s eyes twinkled, showing a strong sense of war. After his breakthrough in martial arts, even if he fought with Zhang Xiu, he could have a certain combat effectiveness. Now I fight with tutuo, and I''m in the same league with him. I''m very enthusiastic.


    It''s the same with tutuo.


    In the army, he was also a tiger general on the battlefield. Now he was blocked by Lu Bu, so he was unwilling.


    The two men fought fiercely.


    For a while, it''s hard to tell the difference.


    Under the golden sun, I saw two people fighting fiercely.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of visutiva. He saw tutuna''s delay in winning. As soon as his eyes turned, he said, "now tutuna''s delay in winning, who will go up for the emperor, unite tutuna and kill Lv Bu?"


    When they heard this, they were surprised.


    Seneca suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "great emperor, this is a battle between the two armies before the battle. Is it appropriate to send people to join forces to attack Lubu?"


    Wei sudiva snorted, clenched her fist and said, "when fighting in the battlefield, I only care about the final result, not the process. As long as it is able to win, what measures have been taken, what is worthy of attention? As long as we win in the end, no one dares to say anything. What do you say, Seneca


    Seneca said, "the great emperor is wise!"


    He knew that this was the character of vesuva, who only looked at the results, not the process.


    "The great emperor, the end will be willing to go."


    At this time, another general came out. His name was gunaro. He was thin and had sharp eyes. In his hand was a four foot long steel knife with a single edge and a thick back. It''s hard to resist the power of a knife.


    "Go," said Vasudeva


    "Yes, sir!"


    Gu naluode order, a shake horse reins, urge the standing horse under the crotch to rush out. However, at the moment when Gu naluo rushes out, Zhang Xiu''s side sees that shamoko still rushes out with the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    Shamoko''s face was full of joy and smile. The horse on his hip was like an arrow from the string. A moment later, he was in front of him and blocked his way.


    There was no superfluous words, but shamoko swung the iron thistle in his hand and smashed it down.Gunarotti''s knife will block the attack.


    "Dang!"


    The sound is harsh when weapons strike.


    But for the two people who fight each other, what they feel is the impact of anti shock. As soon as shamoko''s hand was tight, he suppressed the anti earthquake force. With the help of the rebound force, he quickly swung up the iron thistle in his hand and threw it down again in the air.


    Cournalo was a little slower because his palms were numb because of the influence of his strength just now. It was very difficult for him to take off his strength, which made his speed a little slower.


    Therefore, when the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris falls, the speed of attack is a little slower, and the strength is also a little weaker.


    "Dang!"


    The weapons collided again.


    When the two forces collided, the Tribulus terrestris was more powerful, so it pressed down hard, so that the sword in cournalo''s hand began to sink, and it was almost unable to withstand the attack of shamocco.


    "Come again!"


    But shamoko''s killing is rising.


    In his hand, the iron Tribulus terrestris in his hand is constantly swinging and smashing, just like ramming. He constantly swings his weapons and smashes them in one move. There is no softness, no Yin softness, only straight and strong.


    The impact of weapons, continuous sound.


    In the blink of an eye, shamoko and cournalo have already fought each other for more than 40 moves.


    Shamoko''s face was a little pale, but his eyes were very excited. In particular, although he is also quite tired, but now, shamoko has occupied the advantage.


    Compared with shamoko''s fatigue, his hands were sore, his palms were torn, and there was blood spilling over his palms. Even when he held the axe, his arms trembled slightly.


    The whole person, extremely uncomfortable.


    "Come again!"


    Shamoko is still indomitable.


    When the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris in his hand fell again, it hung with a whistling sound, and his head fell.


    Gunaro was pale.


    He was even a little scared.


    The problem is that he can''t avoid it. He can only block it with a huge axe. With the impact of weapons and the impact of peiran''s power, Gu naluo can no longer bear the impact of this power. The huge axe is knocked out, while the iron tribulus is indomitable and bangs on Gu naluo''s head.


    The sharp thorn on the bone of Tribulus terrestris stabs into the head of Gu naluo. The next moment, under the impact of the strength of the bone of Tribulus terrestris, Gu naluo''s head is like a watermelon class, and his blood is all over the ground.


    Gunaro''s body falls to the ground at random.


    Shamoko yelled loudly, holding the bone of Tribulus terrestris. His eyes turned and fell on Lu Bu and Tu Tuo who were fighting. Now the fight between the two men is still going on, and the fighting is more and more fierce. But at a glance, shamoko can see the subtle difference.


    Although Tu Tuona is strong, it seems that he has no power to succeed. Lu Bu is still powerful, Fang Tian painting halberd constantly cut down. But look at the current situation, there is no dozens of moves, still can not tell the outcome.

 Chapter 1211

    If it was a normal fight between the warriors, it would be impossible for shamoko to intervene in Lubu''s battlefield. Because there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, the confrontation of martial arts has its own pride. But now it''s different. It''s a battle between the two armies. Even if it''s a battle between generals, they have to obey the overall situation. It would be dereliction of duty if every move of a military general could not serve the overall situation of the war.


    So after shamoko killed gunaro, he patted the horse on the back and drove the horse to tutuo.


    At this moment, countless people''s eyes are gathered here.


    Seeing this scene, Vasudeva''s cold face could not help twitching. He sent three generals. Amo and gunaro were killed. Now only tutuna seems to be in a bad situation.


    This is very uncomfortable for Vasudeva.


    Since the establishment of the state, the Kushan state has been invincible and invincible.


    Now, it''s shriveled.


    She clenched her teeth and clenched her fist. "Who''s going to stop that guy again?"


    "I''ll go!"


    At this time, another person rushed out.


    He was a big man, but only in his early twenties. He is visunaro, and in terms of identity, he is the patriarch of Kushan. He had a hammer in his hand. Waving the hammer, he rushed to shamoko quickly.


    When shamoko was about to intervene in the war between Lubu and tutuna, vesunaro successfully stopped shamoko, swung the hammer and met him fiercely.


    "To die!"


    Shamoko murmured.


    When the weapons collide with each other, shamoko''s tribulus is pressed down, and the hammer in vesunaro''s hand is forced to sink.


    "Come again!"


    Shamoko pressed down hard. With the help of vesunaro''s resistance, his weapon rebounded in an instant. After a meal in the air, he was smashed down again.


    "Dang!"


    The weapons collided again.


    When this strike happened, the thorn in shamoko''s hand had already dropped the hammer to the ground. The sharp thorn of Tribulus terrestris was scratched on vesunaro when he slipped, and he was seriously injured immediately.


    Blood spattered, vesunaro fell from the horse, bang, then fell to the ground.


    Shamoko is a veteran on the battlefield.


    As soon as he saw vesunaro fall to the ground, the flower of Tribulus terrestris took advantage of the victory to chase him down. Just listen to a bang, Tribulus terrestris bone flower hard hit on the chest of vesunaro.


    "Poof!"


    Blood spattered and vesunaro vomited blood.


    His chest was broken.


    The whole chest is sunken.


    After shamoko killed vesunaro, his eyes turned and fell on Lv Bu. Perhaps it was Lu Bu who was influenced by shamoko, or tutuna who was influenced by gunaro and vesunaro. The morale of both sides grew and waned, so that tutuna''s stable defense was no longer tenable.


    Tutuo kept retreating, with no offensive and scattered defensive situation.


    When shamoko saw this, he stopped going forward.


    After all, it''s the winner.


    Lu Bu is more courageous in the war. Fang Tian paints halberds and wields them. His moves are like antelopes hanging horns and Taishan pressing down the top. He can move easily between hard and soft, showing his power of hegemony.


    On the contrary, Tu Tuo was unable to carry it.


    Tutuo''s move is more and more scattered.


    Seeing that he was invincible, Tu Tuo didn''t want to follow amo''s footsteps. He swung the weapon in his hand and cut it out with an axe.


    This move is extremely fierce.


    It''s a desperate move.


    As a result, Lu Bu also mentioned Fang Tian''s painting halberd block. At the moment of weapon collision, before Lu Bu had time to attack, Tu Tuona was already driving his horse away and no longer fighting with Lu Bu.


    Tu Tuo is very clear. If he continues to fight, he will be killed within 30 moves. So tutuna withdrew decisively. Even though he was punished by vesuva, he at least saved his own life.


    That''s tutuna''s consideration.


    Lu Bu saw that Tu Tuo Na had withdrawn without pursuing him, and his face was calm. In his hand, the halberd painted by Fang Tian was still the end of the halberd, which was inserted on the ground.


    That slender finger, wipe in the waist, took out the waist big bow.


    His left hand took out a bow and arrow and put it on the bow string like flowing water.


    For a moment, the bowstring vibrated.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow breaks through the air and shoots out. The bow and arrow turns into a streamer in the air, leaving a shadow in the air.


    "Tutuo, be careful of the cold arrow."


    Seeing Lu Bu''s archery, Vasudeva immediately began to remind her.


    His voice came into tutuo''s ear.


    When tutuo Na heard this, he immediately prepared to turn around to look at it. But just as he was about to turn around, he only heard a puff. Tutuo Na immediately felt a pain in his back, and even more heartrending feelings came from his chest.


    A force of destruction burst out from his chest. The sharp arrow pierced the heart of tutuna. Even the force on this arrow is so strong that after the arrow penetrates from the front chest, the end of the shaft comes out from the heart. After flying forward for a certain distance, it falls to the ground with a bang."Poof!"


    Tu Tuo spits blood in his mouth.


    The next moment, Tu Tuo''s huge body had already fallen to the ground.


    A pair of eyes, showing an incredible look. He didn''t expect that he did his best to push back Lu Bu, and then he retreated decisively. Finally, he died under Lu Bu''s arrow.


    I didn''t expect that Lu Bu''s archery was so powerful.


    One shot through his heart.


    "Waste!"


    When she saw tutuna, who had fallen to the ground and died, she looked very angry. He didn''t expect that none of his generals could fight and all of them were killed.


    "Wansheng!"


    All of a sudden, there was another cry from the Qin army.


    Even though Zhang Xiu has never brought much white horse righteousness, the voice of more than a thousand people''s team is still soaring into the sky.


    "Wansheng!"


    "Wansheng!"


    ¡­¡­


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded.


    The voice came out clearly, and it was exactly this that made vesudeva more and more angry. Because now, vesuva has never taken any advantage of it.


    Seeing this, Seneca sighed: "great emperor, this is the end of the matter. It''s not appropriate to send generals to fight again. For today''s plan, the best way is to dispatch troops to fight. Our army is out to drive out Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Vasudeva said nothing.


    On his face, there was still an angry look, angry.


    He lost his face.


    After Lu Bu shot Tu Tuona, Fang Tian''s halberd in his hand pointed to Wei sudiva, but he also raised his left hand and made a neck cutting. That provocative action, as well as the look of disdain, deeply stimulated Vasudeva.


    Zhang Xiu was very satisfied.


    Lu Bu has made some progress now. He is no longer the same as before.


    "Come back!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    In today''s situation, it is obvious that vesuva can no longer arrange for human war. Therefore, Zhang Xiu transferred people back. After Lu Bu and shamoko withdrew, Zhang Xiu once again exclaimed, "Wei sudiva, the generals under your command are all local people, not worth mentioning. But now, you''ve lost the fight. Now, do you choose to mobilize the army to kill them? "


    Vasudeva frowned and looked into the distance. He listened to Zhang Xiu''s words, and felt that Zhang Xiu must have laid an ambush in the distance, otherwise, Zhang Xiu would not be so provocative.


    Zhang Xiu is not far away from Wei sudiva.


    At the first sight of the change of visudeva''s manner, it was possible to tell her worries.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wei Su, do you think in your heart that I ambushed the army in the hiding place behind. Once you get out, I''ll withdraw and you will be ambushed. I tell you, there is absolutely no ambush. "


    Vasudeva snorted.


    He doesn''t believe it.


    The more Zhang Xiu said that, the more suspicious she was.


    Seneca stood aside, he said: "the great emperor, according to the old minister, no matter whether Zhang Xiu arranged an ambush or not. Now, they all send out soldiers to fight for a while. They first defeat Zhang Xiu and drive him away. "


    Vasudeva clenched her fist and was unwilling.


    He always admits defeat.


    But now, facing the army led by Zhang Xiu, he was killed in all battles. It has always been the practice of visudeva to stand up wherever she falls. But now, he wants to beat Zhang Xiu''s Department, but he finds it completely impossible.


    This is what makes visutiva helpless.


    Wei sutiva took a deep breath, gritted her teeth and said: "Zhang Xiu, even if your generals are powerful, what can you do? The fight and defeat of a war do not depend on the courage of a general. In the end, it depends on the strength of the army. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "weisudiva, you are still the king of Kushan kingdom. You are also called Kushan emperor. A man like you, in principle, knows how to use troops. However, your words, but exposed your ignorance and shallow. It''s true that a tiger general in the army can''t influence the victory or defeat of a war, but it can greatly influence the war. "


    "Now, for example, several of your generals have been killed and their morale has been damaged."


    "The morale of my army is like a rainbow."


    "The morale of the army is high, and we can fight with all our strength."


    Zhang Xiu held up her head and threw her voice to the ground: "but you said it had no effect at all. You are deceiving yourself by saying so. Alas, I thought the great Kushan was different. Now, it''s not so bad. "


    Vasudeva''s face was full of anger.


    I didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was so sharp mouthed that she attacked him so much.

 Chapter 1212

    Vasudeva was unwilling, but helpless.


    On the lips, he is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent.


    Vasudeva clenched her fist, raised it slowly, and ordered, "kujiula, listen to me!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Kujiula replied immediately.


    However, kujiula''s face was full of worry. He quickly added: "the great emperor, the last general is good at leading the troops. I''m not good at fighting alone. Therefore, I am afraid that the end of the war will not be able to Lvbu


    Wei sutiva ordered: "the Emperor didn''t let you fight in person. You take your soldiers and immediately go out of the camp to take Zhang Xiu for the emperor."


    "Yes


    Kujiula immediately responded.


    There is no worry on his face. For kujiula, he has 20000 elite soldiers. On the other hand, Zhang Xiu''s army outside the camp was no more than a thousand. With such a military gap, kujiula is confident enough to win.


    "Sons, the opportunity to do meritorious service is here, kill them!"


    Kujiula immediately ordered.


    "Kill


    The cries of killing reverberated inside and outside the camp.


    The soldiers in the dense area are surging out. Kujiula follows behind. He commands the soldiers to come forward, intending to encircle Zhang Xiu in order to block her retreat.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the situation in her eyes. She was calm and didn''t have any eagerness. She immediately ordered the evacuation.


    Everyone, turn around and get out quickly.


    During the retreat of Baima Yicong under more than 1000 Zhao Yun''s command, Lv Bu, Zhao Yun and shamoko were the leaders. They seemed to turn into a sharp knife and easily pierced the guishuang soldiers in the rear.


    The great army left, leaving behind the guishuang soldiers.


    Kujiula is still chasing.


    He did not dare to stop without vesudeva''s order.


    Wei Su''s mother-in-law watched Zhang Xiu''s army withdraw. She had such a look on her face. He expected that it would be like this. Once he sends troops, Zhang Xiu will definitely withdraw.


    Vesuvativa ordered, "withdraw!"


    When the herald gets the order, he immediately calls for gold.


    With the sound of Dangdang, kujiula no longer pursued and quickly withdrew with the army. Kujiula a look of pleading guilty, said: "minister incompetent, failed to catch up with Zhang Xiu, please the emperor to surrender."


    She said, "it''s not your fault. It''s mainly Zhang Xiu''s cunning. Zhang Xiu deliberately retreated, the real purpose is because he intended to ambush our pursuers halfway. Once pursued, it will eventually fall into ambush. "


    Kujiula said: "the great emperor is wise!"


    But Seneca said: "great emperor, now that Zhang Xiu has retreated, he must return to maishan to guard. Now, are we going to dispatch a large army to the front line of maishan? "


    Wei sutiva said: "not for the time being, because Zhang Xiu is now very likely to have a conspiracy. If we don''t wait for a moment, then the ambush arranged by Zhang Xiu will lose its function. "


    Kujiula added: "the great emperor is wise!"


    "The great emperor is wise!"


    The rest of the people spoke.


    On all the faces, they began to flatter Vasudeva.


    Vasudeva waved and said, "let''s go. Let''s go back to the camp and garrison each other."


    "Yes


    The generals were ordered to withdraw their troops.


    After the host and guest took their seats, she looked at Seneca and said in a deep voice, "national master, today we fought with Zhang Xiu for a while and killed the tiger generals of AMO and gunaro. In addition, the morale of the army was also affected to a certain extent. Through today''s events, we should have a judgment on Zhang Xiu. What do you think of Zhang Xiu? "


    Seneca replied: "to the great emperor, I think Zhang Xiu is very cunning and powerful. It is not easy to deal with the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu. Even now, we have the advantage of military strength, but if we go to war with Zhang Xiu, if we don''t pay attention, we will be very passive. We must be cautious in this war. "


    Vasudeva was a man of great pride.


    He is also a conceited person.


    He really wanted to listen to Seneca''s evaluation of Zhang Xiu, but when he really heard what Seneca said, he felt that Seneca praised Zhang Xiu, so he was not happy. He snorted: "Zhang Xiu is just cunning, and depends on some military generals. As for other aspects, it''s no more than that. "


    Seneca understood the nature of visutiva. It was because she attached great importance to Zhang Xiu that she asked. But it''s because I can''t see Seneca and Zhang Xiu that I say so.


    Seneca said: "what the great emperor said is true, but it is precisely because Zhang Xiu is cunning, and we should be more careful. Because a cunning person like Zhang Xiu is likely to use conspiracy means. "


    Vasudeva nodded.


    Seneca said: "the great emperor has decided not to send troops for the time being. So when are you going to attack?"


    In Vasudeva''s eyes, a bright light flashed over her eyes, and she said: "in the course of war, the aggressor always loses more. Even if it is dominant, the loss will be greater. ""So it''s best for us not to attack."


    "On the one hand, in order to prevent Zhang Xiu from conspiracy; on the other hand, it is to give Zhang Xiu the opportunity to take the initiative to attack, so now in a short period of time, we temporarily suspend our troops and do not launch an attack."


    "Not always, of course."


    Wei sudiva said: "if Zhang Xiu has been guarding maishan, she will not take action. At that time, we will take the initiative to attack again. After all, we are here to attack cities and plunder land. If we have been stationing troops here and do not take any action, it will be quite disadvantageous for us. "


    Seneca said, "the great emperor is wise!"


    Wei sudiva said: "today''s World War I will certainly have some influence on the army if we lose several generals. Let''s go. Let''s go to the army with our emperor, and stabilize the morale of the army. "


    "Yes


    Seneca immediately responded.


    They stood up one after another, then walked out of the Chinese Army''s tent and went to the place where the soldiers were resting, ready to appease the soldiers in the army.


    On the other side, Zhang Xiu led the army to retreat.


    The speed of his retreat is not fast. When the army withdrew not far away, Zhang Xiu found that there were no pursuers in the rear. Although she sent troops to kill her, she was not in a hurry to catch up.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu knew that Wei sudiva would not attack for the time being, so she withdrew.


    The army returned to maishan and stayed.


    Zhang Xiu never took the initiative to attack.


    He has the geographical advantage of maishan, it is impossible to give up maishan to take the initiative to attack. With the passage of time day by day, in a twinkling of an eye, three days slipped away quietly. Zhang Xiu was still stationed in maishan, and Wei sudiva had never attacked.


    Both sides are competing for patience.


    They''re all waiting for a chance.


    Wei sudiva is waiting for Zhang Xiu to give up maishan and take the initiative to attack.


    Zhang Xiu is also waiting for Wei sudiva to give up defense and take the initiative to attack Mai Shan.


    When time entered the fourth day, Zhang Xiu was still sitting in the Central Military account, never because of Wei sudiva''s impetuous not to attack. However, vesuvativa did not move forward in the army, but the soldiers were impetuous.


    In private, many soldiers talked about the fact that she was afraid of the Qin army.


    He was worried that he would be seriously damaged by the Qin army.


    In particular, the previous scene of Lu Bu and shamoko''s killing is still imprinted in the minds of many Kushan soldiers. So when Vasudeva did not enter the army, the soldiers in the army talked about it.


    On the fifth day, Wei sudiva was still disappointed, and Zhang Xiu still didn''t kill her.


    In this case, Wei sudiva completely gave up the idea of waiting for Zhang Xiu to kill her, and now the morale of the army is in a mess, and it is not conducive to the war to continue to delay.


    Therefore, the order of sending troops was given by vesuvati.


    The mighty Kushan army set out to kill Mai Shan. This time, Vasudeva did her best to take all the troops under her command and went to maishan, intending to take maishan in one go.

 Chapter 1213

    Maishan, peak command.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting at the top of the mountain these days. He and his subordinates have already worked out a plan for this battle. It is impossible for Wei sudiva not to go out and give up Mai Shan''s advantage to attack.


    Zhang Xiu is not on the offensive side. He is not in a hurry.


    Especially in the rear area of Zhang Xiu, there is enough food and grass supply, so we don''t worry about the extension of time. On the contrary, the lengthening of time is ultimately unfavorable to Wei sudiva, not to Da Qin.


    When Zhang Xiu and Guo Jia played chess, Wang Yue rushed in.


    Wang Yue saluted and said, "Your Majesty, the sentinel has sent back the news that in Kushan, the army led by Wei sudiva is coming to kill us. This time, Vasudeva, it should be a real attack. All of his 200, 000 strong troops have been deployed. "


    "I see!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and Wang Yue stepped down.


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it seems that Vasudeva is really unstable now. However, I infer that vesutiva''s attack must have been first bombed by artillery and then attacked. Now it''s time to order all the soldiers in the trench to be on guard. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "what fengxiao said is true."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu gave the order to the messenger, and asked the soldiers around him to convey the order immediately. All the soldiers who are in the trench, all in position.


    However, the firearm Battalion soldiers who were responsible for throwing grenades did not enter the trench for the time being. Because once a lot of grenades are piled up on the hillside, once they are detonated by bombs, on the contrary, they will injure their own people.


    So now, the firearm camp is still on the mountain.


    The rest of the army was stationed on the other side of maishan.


    As time goes by.


    In the distance to the west of maishan, suddenly, there was a roaring sound. Zhang Xiu put her chess pieces on the chessboard, stood up and said, "fengxiao, if you say so, in the guishuang area, the first thing she did was bombard. Now, it''s starting. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes were solemn.


    The war has begun.


    "Boom!"


    A moment later, a shell fell on the mountain of maishan. For a moment, the soil on maishan turned over, and even the whole mountain began to shake and was severely bombed.


    Countless shells came and landed on the mountain with fierce momentum.


    Zhang Xiu is standing on the mountain. He looks into the distance.


    The army led by vesudeva stopped at a distance and did not attack. All the cannons aimed at maishan. With the continuous loading of shells, maishan''s mountain seemed to be a sea of fire.


    With the naked eye, we can only see the smoke and dust, the soil flying, and even can''t really see what happened inside. We can only feel the shock of maishan mountain.


    Guo Jia stares at the foot of the mountain and sees that although the shells are bombing, guishuang has not sent troops to kill them yet.


    It''s obviously the artillery first.


    Attack later.


    Guo Jia turned her eyes and immediately suggested: "Your Majesty, I suggest that all the soldiers in the ditch be transferred back immediately. The trench is winding round and round. It can run from the high trench on the hillside to the top of the mountain. After all, now that vesuva had not ordered an attack and had not been approached by Kushan''s army, the defending soldiers'' vehicles could be brought back temporarily. When the other party''s army launches an attack, the soldiers may enter the trench. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia solemnly said, "if the soldiers are not allowed to withdraw, everyone will be bombed on the mountain. It''s not cost-effective. So in this matter, we can make certain adjustments and withdraw the soldiers first. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s reasonable!"


    He agreed with Guo Jia''s analysis, so he immediately ordered the messenger to continue.


    With the order issued, one by one soldiers in the trench, shaking the soil splashed on their bodies, quickly went up the hillside. The long winding soldiers withdraw, just like a long snake.


    Even if there are still bomb explosions around, even if the soil is flying, but the soldiers in the army, there was no turmoil, all orderly into the planning position, according to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    All the soldiers evacuated, Zhang Xiu is both relaxed and cautious.


    The reason why it''s easy is that under such circumstances, if there are no soldiers on the hillside, the losses of his soldiers will be minimized. The reason why we are cautious is that we should always be careful that the Kushan army at the foot of the mountain will attack the city at any time.


    Boom!!


    The sound of explosion is still ringing.


    More and more explosions reverberate on the mountain.


    The whole western slope of maishan is almost a large section short, as if it had been cut and peeled. At the command of vesudeva, the army began to charge along maishan. At this time, the artillery bombing finally stopped.


    After all, the previous attack, Kushan''s army will also be bombarded, that is equal to regardless of the enemy and ourselves.


    When more and more Kushan troops launched attacks, the soldiers who had originally evacuated from the hillside trench immediately entered along the trench and stationed in the trench again, ready to wait for the Kushan army to approach.In addition, soldiers from the firearm battalion came forward.


    Baskets of hand grenades were sent into the trench by soldiers. The soldiers who were responsible for throwing hand grenades were in position quickly.


    The cry came from the foot of the mountain.


    Dense Kushan army, like a flood rising, constantly to the hillside to soak.


    The attack was extremely swift.


    However, when the soldiers of Kushan entered the throwing range of the grenades, when the order of attack was issued, the grenadists of the firearm battalion quickly took out the grenades, opened the fuse and threw them out.


    A grenade swept empty, the next moment, it fell in the crowd.


    "Boom!"


    There was an explosion.


    "Boom!!"


    More and more grenade explosions, the sound of one after another, appalling.


    The continuous explosion made the Kushan army suffer heavy losses and countless casualties. But even so, the army of Kushan is still rushing up quickly.


    There are too many people.


    Even the grenade bombardment did not affect Kushan''s attack.


    The attack is too strong.


    The curtain fell at the foot of the mountain and was seen from a distance by Vasudeva. He had an unexpected look in his eyes. He didn''t expect that Daqin also had firearms to fight back.


    Even though the firearm was less powerful, vesudeva frowned. The firearm was less powerful, but it also caused great losses to his attacking soldiers.


    Unfortunately for his soldiers.


    In the process of attacking the mountain, there are countless losses.


    However, the order has been given and the sword has come out of its sheath. There is no room for relaxation. The army under the command of Vasudeva is still advancing, and the sea of people tactics are still effective.


    When approaching the bottom of the trench, the Qin soldiers inside had drawn their swords and started a white-edged battle.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu''s army did not help to evacuate, did not retreat to the mountains and then kill them. The reason is that this time there are too many Kushan troops and their combat effectiveness is stronger. They must be stopped early.


    If the other party is allowed to climb the mountain, the consequences will be unimaginable. The two sides took maishan as the base of fighting, and constantly put in troops, so that their losses continued.


    In comparison, the loss of guishuang is greater.


    At a disadvantage, after all.


    In particular, the Qin army on the mountain can still throw grenades to the crowd of Kushan to bomb, making the offensive of Kushan unable to play to the maximum, unable to rush up the mountain.


    The war has been going on.


    From the morning to the afternoon, and then from the afternoon to the evening.


    A corpse, lying across the maishan mountain, was damaged in both guishuang and the Qin army. At this time, it was getting late, and Vasudeva looked at the dark sky. Even if there was a moonlight, it was not convenient to attack.


    "Withdraw


    Vasudeva gave the order.


    "Dang! Dang


    With the order of Ming Jin''s withdrawal, it was passed over maishan. All the soldiers of Kushan retreated like a tide and stopped attacking. For a moment, the pressure of the Qin army dropped sharply, and it was even more relieved.


    Anyway, hold on.


    Zhang Xiu also looked at the development of the situation from the top of the mountain. Seeing guishuang take the lead to retreat, Zhang Xiu is also relieved. Now that the Kushan army retreats, the garrison of the Qin army will be able to slow down a little, and all of them will be able to retreat, replacing the soldiers who have not participated in the war before, so as to ensure the control of maishan.


    After the army''s change of duty, the smell of meat and rice on the mountain has been diffused. The soldiers have been preparing for the evening meal.


    This is the biggest reward for soldiers who have been fighting for a day.

 Chapter 1214

    Under the night, the moonlight is like water.


    The hazy moonlight makes the whole wheat mountain seem real and illusory, especially the cover of fog, which makes the wheat mountain become hazy and can''t really see everything on the wheat mountain.


    In the peak command.


    Ganning is reporting losses in the daytime war.


    During the daytime war, only the fierce tiger army under Ganning took part in the battle, which damaged more than 1000 soldiers. However, it also successfully blocked the first day''s attack of the Kushan army. In particular, the loss of guishuang was more than that of Qin army.


    Now the army that is replaced is the infantry of Bai Ma Yi under Zhao Yun.


    After hearing Gan Ning''s report, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "our fight with guishuang just started yesterday. Such a fight, even if we are mainly defensive, will also lose a lot. Today, we have not fought back with cannons. We will fight tomorrow. We will pull out all the guns we have captured and load them with shells to counter the bombing. "


    "Here it is


    Zhao Yun said, "Your Majesty, after all, we have a limited number of cannons. If we have a large number of cannons and can supply them in full, it will be much easier to keep maishan. After all, the strength of the grenade is weak


    Zhang Xiu said: "the situation of artillery depends on the research progress of Hu Mo and others in the rear."


    Before that, Zhang Xiu had already transferred Hu Mo and others. With the research of Hu Mo and others, Zhang Xiu believes that there will be cannons in the near future.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a soldier entered.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldier and said, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier said, "Your Majesty, Mr. Hu Mo, please see me."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Soldiers to inform, in a short time, see Hu Mo came in a hurry. Hu Mo''s face was slightly tired, but his eyes were excited. As soon as he saw Zhang Xiu, he couldn''t wait to say, "Your Majesty, it''s done. It''s done."


    Zhang Xiu asked, "has the cannon been developed?"


    "Yes, it has been developed."


    Hu Mo looked excited and said: "the casting of this cannon is mainly due to the difficulty of the barrel, especially the difficulty of the bore. But now, we''ve all overcome it. At present, we have made three cannons in a row, and made shells for experiments, all of which are successful. Our cannon has been developed. "


    With the template, it is not difficult to make the cannon.


    So Hu Mo and others, in a short time, have been copied.


    Although Zhang Xiu was excited, she was calm. He asked, "what''s the power of the cannon you developed?"


    Hu Mo said: "in reply to your majesty, the cannons we have developed are thinner and smaller in barrel, although the cannons are smaller correspondingly. However, its power is not weak. Because we added some iron flakes, steel needles and so on to the shells. Once the shell explodes, the iron flakes and steel needles will fly across, and there will be countless casualties. It''s not just the power of explosion, but also the lethality of iron and steel needles. "


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu heard the light in her eyes, full of praise.


    As a matter of fact, the addition of steel needles and iron flakes to the shells has also occurred in many wars of later generations. Zhang Xiu did not expect that he did not mention, Hu Mo and others have developed.


    These people are worthy of being Mohist.


    It''s really powerful.


    Hu Mo said in a deep voice: "at present, our people are stepping up mass production. Three days at most, there will be cannons and shells. Three days later, there were no less than 30 cannons and more than 1000 shells. "


    Now the Ministry of work has mobilized local forces.


    If we do not mobilize local cooperation, it is certainly impossible to achieve such a speed.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "OK, I''ll give you three days. These three days, I will still choose to stick to it. Three days later, when your cannons and shells arrive, I will launch a counterattack on the whole line. "


    "Here it is


    Hu Mo hugged his fist and said, "it''s not too late. I''ll come back immediately and tell everyone the news."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Hu Mo bows to Zhang Xiu and then turns back.


    After Hu Mo left, Zhang Xiu looked at Zhao Yun, Gan Ning and others and said, "you should have known the situation now. These three days, in any case, must be firmly held. We have the geographical advantage of maishan, and we have to guard it for three days. I believe it''s not difficult. "


    Gan Ning suddenly said, "Your Majesty, can we publicize that we will launch a counter offensive in three days. Let the soldiers keep up their spirits and defend for three days. With the notice, the officers and men have hope, and they can fight without worries. "


    "Yes!"


    Directly approved by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu and the people discussed, the headquarters is still bright, from time to time came the voice of negotiation.


    It''s far west of maishan.


    Vasudeva''s army has returned to the barracks.


    But in the camp, the atmosphere was dignified.Because today''s attack is futile.


    The great army of Kushan kingdom was blocked by a small Mai mountain. After a whole day''s attack, the troops of Kushan still failed to conquer maishan.


    This irritated Vasudeva.


    This is not the style of kusana.


    Kushan''s army is always invincible and invincible.


    Now, it''s blocked.


    After a lecture, she looked around at all the people: "tomorrow morning, the army will pull out again and continue to attack maishan. Tomorrow, we must take maishan. It''s unforgivable that only a mountain of wheat has blocked my army of Kushan. "


    All of us should go down together.


    However, the look of the soldiers in the army is slightly dignified.


    They didn''t have much confidence. The army of Kushan was very strong, but the soldiers of Daqin were also very tenacious. Just like this, the army of Kushan tried to attack and failed to conquer maishan.


    But she did not speak much. After a brief lecture, she asked the generals to step down, leaving only Seneca. He looked at Seneca and said, "national master, can you take maishan tomorrow?"


    "Hard!"


    Seneca answered truthfully.


    "What''s the reason?" said Vasudeva


    Seneca replied: "today''s World War I, we suffered a great loss. Although the Qin army also suffered losses, the losses were smaller than ours. Especially in the Qin army, the morale was high and the fighting spirit was not weakened. Under such a premise, it is not a matter of one day to conquer maishan. According to my estimation, I''m afraid it will take three or five days or even longer to capture maishan. "


    She nodded her head and said, "what the national teacher said is also the judgment of the emperor. However, we can''t be stopped all the time, so we must give orders to the attackers to die, and we must break maishan ahead of time. "


    After a pause, Vasudeva said, "tomorrow''s attack will be bombarded again. Under our constant bombardment, this wheat mountain became more and more flat, and the defense of the Qin army became weaker and weaker. "


    Seneca said, "the great emperor is wise!"


    The two men discussed the strategy of the attack. Late at night, Seneca left the camp and went back to rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    It was just dawn, and the clarion had sounded in the Kushan army. The sound of the trumpet roused all the soldiers from their sleep. When the soldiers woke up, they had a quick meal, and then the army pulled out and went to maishan again.


    Today''s attack is not much different from yesterday''s.


    Still first with artillery bombardment, and then, is the dense Kushan soldiers attack.


    Under the attack of the sea of people, the soldiers of Kushan rushed to maishan. However, under Zhao Yun''s command, Baima Yicong''s infantry was like a nail, nailed to maishan, never retreated, and always stopped the Kushan soldiers in the middle of the mountain.


    After a day''s fighting, the Kushan army failed again.


    Vasudeva was furious and helpless.


    On the third day and the fourth day, the attack was still the same as before, but maishan was still maishan, and the Qin army under Zhang Xiu was still well guarded.


    In the guishuang army has always been unable to break through the situation, Zhang Xiu''s rear, Hu Mo has taken a group of soldiers, transported artillery and shells to the east side of maishan.


    All the cannons, up the mountain.


    All the shells, too, arrived.


    After the arrival of this batch of weapons, Zhang Xiu''s heart is to arrive. This battle continues until now, all the time, he is the choice of defense. Now, at last, we can fight back.


    But for the time being, Zhang Xiu did not go directly to the camp of Kushan, but was still in maishan, waiting for the arrival of the army of Kushan.


    After a night, the red sun rises.


    The golden sun, falling from the sky, makes the whole maishan red. Today, there are still many corpses on maishan, and even the mountain is dark purple because of the blood.


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of the horn came from far west.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the top of the mountain and looked to the west of maishan. She could see clearly that the army led by Wei sudiva was coming again, ready to attack maishan.

 Chapter 1215

    Time is not long, suddenly in the distance, there will be a roar of artillery. One by one, shells flew from the air, swept an arc in the air, and flew to the hillside of maishan.


    "Boom!"


    The bomb exploded and the soil flew.


    The whole maishan mountain was shaking at this moment.


    The sound of explosions, one after another, fortunately Zhang Xiu''s Qin army, all stationed in the east side of maishan. So even the artillery bombardment did not have any impact.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the mountain, but she looks as usual. These days of fighting, Zhang Xiu to this degree of artillery bombing, has been used to.


    With the artillery bombardment, the soldiers of Kushan got closer and closer to the foot of the mountain. When the distance was shortened to about 300 steps, Zhang Xiu decisively ordered the firing. Now the cannon made by Hu Mo and others has a range of more than 300 steps.


    It is the best time to bomb the Kushan army.


    Artillery one by one, get in position quickly.


    One gun, all in array.


    "Light up!"


    As the order was given, the soldiers lit the fire quickly.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fuse is burning fast.


    "Boom!"


    The explosion broke out suddenly.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom


    One after another, the sound of explosions reverberated. One shell flew out of the mountain and crossed an arc in the air. In the twinkling of an eye, it fell in the position of more than 300 steps, in the crowd.


    Boom!!


    The explosion started.


    "Boom!"


    More and more explosions, one after another. Soldiers on the ground were blown over one after another, their limbs and arms were broken, and they died miserably. This kind of explosion, make originally calm Kushan army, all in a mess, desperate to escape.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of vesudeva in the rear.


    Vasudeva frowned.


    Guishuang army was at war with Qin army. Qin army never had artillery bombardment from beginning to end. But now, suddenly there are cannons and dense bombing.


    This kind of intensive bombing is not possessed by one or two cannons, but by dozens of cannons.


    It can be seen that the Qin army had its own cannons.


    In her heart, vesuva was a little proud. Because guishuang has a cannon, which is better than Daqin. But now, Daqin is different. Daqin also has cannons. Even Daqin had weapons like grenades.


    Vasudeva''s sense of superiority disappeared completely under the bombardment of cannons.


    "Attack, attack with all your strength!"


    She felt a sense of urgency in her heart, and she immediately gave the order. Now the defense of Qin army is more and more strict. Under such a premise, time can not be delayed any longer. So no matter whether the Qin army had artillery or not, he would take down maishan and enter the territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    Kushan army, fast attack.


    Even if the artillery bombing, Kushan''s army did not stop, risking the shells to attack quickly. As time went on, Kushan''s army arrived at the foot of maishan and launched an attack.


    Its offensive is extremely fierce.


    The mighty army continued to rush up from the mountain. Even if there are grenades falling down to bomb, even if there are shells bombing the rear, the soldiers of the precious frost never stop.


    Zhang Xiu is still on the mountain, staring coldly at the battle.


    This is the final battle.


    This battle must be won.


    Therefore, the army under Zhang Xiu''s command, while resisting step by step, still relied on artillery bombing to weaken Kushan''s offensive. When the Qin army retreated from the bottom of the trench to less than three Zhang away from the top, Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated and ordered: "pass the order, and the army began to counter attack. In this battle, the Kushan army was completely defeated. "


    "Woo! Woo


    The sound of the horn suddenly rang out.


    The sound of the trumpet is urgent and exciting.


    With the sound of the horn, the army stationed on the mountain has launched a general attack.


    The fierce tiger army, the white horse Yicong army and the rest of the army all sent troops at this time. The army went out in full force, and the army was covered up from the mountain.


    Originally, the Kushan army kept rushing up and was close to the top of the mountain. But now, as soon as the Qin army stepped into the battlefield, the emergence of this new force immediately changed the fighting in the battlefield.


    The Kushan army is a total failure.


    The offensive was completely dispersed.


    Kushan''s troops are constantly retreating, and they can no longer keep their shape.


    The Kushan army on the hillside was constantly crushed down.


    Zhang is still in the town.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp. He looked to the general who was in charge of the artillery not far away and asked, "have you found out the position of the artillery in Kushan?"


    "Clear!"


    The responsible general nodded.Zhang xiudao said: "get ready for me. As soon as the other side''s artillery launches, it will start to adjust the angle of the artillery, extend the range and blow up the position of the other side''s artillery."


    "Here it is


    The general answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell in the direction of Wei sudiva.


    He believed that Vasudeva would make a judgment.


    Because when Zhang Xiu''s army began a large-scale counterattack, a dense army appeared. Because there were too many people, the other side was likely to use artillery bombing, so Zhang Xiu had to arrange a firearm battalion to deal with it.


    Sure enough, when she found that her army had been defeated and the Qin army had been killed on a large scale, she immediately ordered her soldiers to aim at the positions of the Qin soldiers and fire.


    Previously, Wei Su''s army attacked and was bombarded by the Qin army.


    So many deaths and injuries.


    Now, Vasudeva has to pay for her blood.


    Let the soldiers of Daqin also die under his cannons, and let them see the power of Kushan cannons.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, big guns were fired.


    After the shell flew out, its geographical location was also found by the Qin army on maishan. One by one, the soldiers in charge of artillery aiming adjusted the angle of the cannon and began to aim again.


    "Fire!"


    When the commander in charge gave a loud order, there was an explosion.


    In mid air, a shell passed by.


    These shells crossed a parabola in the air, and finally landed in the area where the Kushan cannon was. Such an explosion not only destroyed the artillery of Kushan, but also ignited the elixir accumulated on the ground.


    Countless pills, constantly exploding.


    The boom of explosions, one after another, resounded through the world. The whole artillery camp in Kushan turned into a sea of fire at this moment, and even all the people around the artillery were killed.


    Zhang Xiu, looking from a distance, finds that the artillery camp of Kushan Kingdom has been taken away, and her heart is also excited. Now that the artillery barracks of the other side have been bombed, it means that Daqin will not be bombed again in a short time.


    It can only be Daqin bombing Kushan.


    Vasudeva looked at the artillery camp which turned into a sea of fire. Her heart was like a knife, and her face was even more livid. After the loss of artillery, his army''s offensive, at least a third of the lack of combat effectiveness.


    This war is dangerous.


    She was very nervous in her heart.


    He turned his eyes again, looked at the foot of maishan mountain, looked at the mighty troops of the Qin Dynasty, no longer hesitated, and ordered: "kill, the whole army will attack. Today is the day to defeat the Qin army. "


    Zhang Xiu leads the troops to fight a decisive battle. Wei sudiva does not retreat and gives the order to fight a decisive battle.


    In this battle, Vasudeva will win.


    Even without the artillery, he''s going to fight. Especially when the two sides fight face-to-face, such a white-edged battle will not affect even if there is no artillery, so Vasudeva will fight with all her strength.


    With the order of vesuvativa, there was a great battle drum behind him. With the roar of war drums, dense soldiers launched an attack.


    The final showdown has been triggered.

 Chapter 1216

    The number of troops under vesudeva''s command is quite large, at least 160000. After all, in the successive attacks of the past few days, the army lost a lot.


    Rao is so, it is still a strong force.


    A team of more than 100000 people is terrible.


    Today, Zhang Xiu''s military strength is about 140000, and Zhang Xiu''s military strength is about one.


    The gap between the two sides is not too big.


    After all, guishuang was on the offensive side and suffered great losses in fighting for several days in a row; Qin army was on the defensive side and consumed little. Over the past few days, the gap between the two sides has narrowed a lot.


    The close fight between the two sides was carried out in the vast northwest.


    Especially when the fighting started, the scope became wider and wider. Looking down from high altitude, you can see dense black spots, lying on the ground, and then constantly colliding and fighting.


    Lu Bu, Sha Mo Ke, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and others all stepped into the battlefield and began to charge with their troops.


    No matter Lu Bu, or shamoko and others, they are all first-class tiger generals. On the battlefield, even if one''s strength is weak, one''s bravery can drive the attack of the army.


    This is complementary.


    Therefore, even if personal bravery is difficult to influence more than 100000 people, the final effect of driving the army to attack through personal fighting is to make the army fight bravely and keep on advancing.


    "Kill me, kill me!"


    Lu Bu, holding the halberd painted by Fang Tian, sprints quickly.


    At this moment, the halberd painted by Fang Tian revolves in his hands. It is either heavy or light as a feather. It is already rigid or soft, and changes freely in the process of being rigid, fierce and soft.


    The soldiers of Kushan were killed one after another.


    Lu Bu''s body has been stained with blood.


    Under the bloodstain, Lv Bu was rendered like a demon. There were no soldiers within a foot of him. The Kushan army nearby has been scared out of their wits.


    Lu Bu is invincible, and shamoko is constantly advancing on the other side.


    Whether it is Lu Bu or shamoko, they used to fight outside the camp of Kushan to show their skills and show their faces among the soldiers of Kushan. Therefore, many people know Lu Bu and shamoko and their horror.


    Gao Lan, Gan Ning, Pang De, Zhao Yun and Zhang Ren are fighting in the distance.


    All armies are advancing.


    Rao is so. There are countless black people on the ground with more than 100000 people. Even if the local Kushan troops could not resist the offensive, the whole battlefield, the Kushan troops, still have not been defeated, still continue to fight.


    On Vasudeva''s face, she looked cold and solemn.


    He can''t accept failure.


    Not willing to fail.


    Therefore, even though the war is now in a weak position, she is unwilling to retreat and constantly orders the soldiers in the rear to beat the drum to cheer the soldiers who rush forward.


    "Dong! Dong! "


    The drums are rumbling and ringing.


    The soldiers of Kushan Kingdom, hearing the sound of war drums coming from the rear, were all rushing.


    After beating the drums for a while, Vasudeva stopped and looked at the battlefield again. Today''s battlefield, the two sides fight each other, it is difficult to separate you and me, the fight is very fierce.


    "To win, you have to win!"


    She murmured to herself.


    This time, he came from the Kushan Kingdom, and he was repeatedly humiliated here in Zhang Xiu. In the heart of Vasudeva, there was already a huge amount of anger.


    Only by winning can we vent our anger.


    Only by winning can we vent our anger.


    So no matter what, kusana must win.


    The attack of the Kushan kingdom is still going on, and the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are still continuing to attack.


    The fighting between the two sides became more intense.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the top of the mountain, watching the fighting at the foot of the mountain, looked at Wang Yue not far away, and ordered: "Wang Yue, the fighting has become more and more fierce. Now you can start planning. "


    "Here it is


    The more the king got the order, he immediately ordered him to go down.


    In fact, when Zhang Xiu decided to fight a decisive battle, she had already made a plan.


    "Woo! Woo


    All of a sudden, the horn was ringing.


    The sound of the trumpet is not loud and grand, but the sound is long and lingering. In particular, the sound of the horn was very loud, and it was clearly introduced into the battlefield.


    With the sound of the horn, the battle field suddenly sounded the voice of retreat.


    "I can''t stop it. Retreat quickly!"


    "Qin''s chest is tight, retreat!"


    "Retreat


    These words are constantly ringing, and the most important thing is that such retreating words are spread in Kushan dialect. So when more and more kusana words were heard, all of them were words of surrender and retreat, many soldiers of kusana did not know why, so they did not hesitate to retreat and no longer resist.The withdrawal of a few people will lead to the withdrawal of more people.


    Because once someone starts to retreat and is found by the people around him, he will let the people around him think that this is an order for a large-scale retreat. Therefore, such a cry actually triggered the collapse trend of Kushan army.


    In addition, the generals of Lv Bu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and so on, with the army constantly charging forward, even like a sharp knife, quickly penetrated into the Kushan army, making the Kushan troops gradually unable to stop.


    So after the words of retreat, many Kushan soldiers never doubted.


    Then a strong retreat.


    The attack of Kushan suddenly avalanched.


    Guishuang''s army suddenly retreated on a large scale.


    Zhang Xiu in maishan, condescending examination, can clearly see the development of the battlefield. When he saw that the Kushan army collapsed like an avalanche, he could no longer suppress his joy and burst into laughter.


    Win!


    This is a victory!


    Even in this war, an unexpected small means has been adopted, but such means, as long as they can work, are excellent means.


    In fact, it also depends on the language barrier between the two sides.


    Qin soldiers have their own official language. As for Kushan, it has its own language system. Therefore, the soldiers of Kushan suddenly heard the words of Kushan retreating. They did not doubt it and began to retreat.


    Once you retreat, you lose.


    It can''t be turned around any more.


    Vasudeva was sitting in the rear of the Kushan army. When he saw the army on the front line, all of a sudden, she began to rout, with an unbelievable look on her face.


    How is that possible?


    Why did you lose all of a sudden.


    Just now, the fighting on the battlefield was very good. Even though Zhang Xiu''s tiger generals were fierce, guishuang had a large number of troops and was still guarding against the Qin army.


    But now, it''s a rout.


    This confused Vasudeva.


    He did not understand why the good situation suddenly collapsed like an avalanche.

 Chapter 1217

    "Waste, a bunch of waste!"


    The expression on visudeva''s face was full of anger. After a long period of abuse, he immediately looked at Seneca and asked, "national master, what do you think we should do now? The whole army of Kushan began to rout. "


    Seneca said: "great emperor, this is the end of the matter. There is no other way but to withdraw."


    Vasudeva''s face was cold.


    He was unwilling to retreat.


    Once the army withdraws now, it means that the army will be completely defeated, and it will inevitably be covered up and killed, leading to a downfall. In particular, Vasudeva was in the rear, and did not arrange the army to break the rear.


    So Vasudeva cannot retreat.


    She did not take Seneca''s advice and beat the drum again to encourage the soldiers in the army. She hoped that the retreating Kushan soldiers would regain their spirits and fight back.


    It''s a pity that the army of vesudeva is in a rout.


    More than 100000 people were defeated, and their posture was like an avalanche, which could not be stopped. In particular, the defeated and fleeing man kept retreating. Even if vesudeva ordered to fight back, it was of no help.


    After all, commanding 100 men in combat is totally different from commanding 10000 or 100000 men.


    If it is a battle of more than 100 people, when the troops are defeated and retreat, the retreating soldiers can be killed to frighten the rest of the retreating soldiers. But this team of more than 100000 people, even if vesuva killed and made Wei, had no significance and had no effect.


    In particular, the trend of rout, like a snowball, is getting stronger and stronger.


    Vasudeva couldn''t stop it.


    "What to do?"


    In the heart of vesudeva, she used her brain quickly, intending to turn the situation around.


    He didn''t want to retreat.


    It was a mythical mission, an invincible God of war and an invincible emperor. But now, once the army was defeated and retreated, his myth would be shattered.


    Vasudeva looked at Seneca again, clenched her teeth and said, "master, are you really helpless? If I can''t think of a way, I''ll put you to death now. "


    Brush!


    Seneca''s face changed greatly.


    He looked unbelievable, but he didn''t expect that Vasudeva would make such a statement at this time.


    It''s really surprising.


    Such a visutiva, even in Seneca''s heart, gave birth to a sense of surprise. He did not expect that at such a critical time, vesuva would say such words.


    It''s so chilling.


    Seneca took a deep breath, cheered up and said: "under the current situation, it is inevitable that the war will be defeated. Even if the emperor wants to kill me, I have nothing to say. If the great emperor wants to reverse the victory or defeat, this war is impossible, but the follow-up is not impossible, and there is a chance. "


    "How can we reverse the outcome?" said Vasudeva


    Seneca said: "the emperor''s Mount was offered by the official balho. According to the minister, balho obtained this colossus from dumethin, who kept it. "


    "Dumeishen is good at raising colossus and controlling all colossus. Just imagine if there are giant elephants in our army. Once the Qin army is brought into the battlefield and attacked by the giant elephant array, the Qin army will be defeated. "


    "It''s just manpower. In front of the Colossus, everything is in vain."


    Seneca said: "this is our chance to reverse the situation. However, dumishin always lived a simple life, and he was eccentric and didn''t deal with people. It''s not easy to persuade him. "


    When Vasudeva heard this, her eyes lit up.


    Opportunity!


    Seneca''s suggestion gives the solution.


    Without further delay, vesudeva immediately ordered, "retreat, full speed."


    "Dang! Dang! "


    The sound of gongs resounds through the battlefield.


    With the sound of the call for the end of the war, the troops of the Kushan Empire withdrew quickly in the whole battlefield. With the avalanche, Su Tiwei was defeated again.


    Under such circumstances, the rear army was unable to resist, and soldiers began to surrender.


    The whole situation has collapsed.


    Vasudeva, together with Seneca and others, quickly evacuated. When he looked back and saw the situation of the rear army''s defeat, he felt helpless. Even so, vesuva could only evacuate quickly, regardless of the situation in the rear.


    Just like this, the Qin army''s offensive was more fierce.


    Shouting and killing, one after another.


    Infantry cover, cavalry pursuit, this vast land, dense Qin soldiers, fast pursuit cover. Under the attack of Daqin soldiers, more and more Kushan soldiers surrendered.


    Rao was so. Vesuva led the troops to withdraw.


    After all, the Qin army failed to take Wei sudiva.


    After all, there are too many Kushan troops.


    It took more than half a day for the war to cover up and kill. It lasted until the evening when all the troops returned to maishan. Now the Qin troops stationed on maishan are all in high spirits. One by one, their faces were full of fighting spirit and joy.They won the battle.


    In this war, Kushan was defeated.


    Even though guishuang was strong and powerful, it was defeated by Daqin after all.


    Daqin is still invincible.


    In the mountain command post, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren are all reporting the results of the battle. Gan Ning took the lead in reporting: "Your Majesty, in this battle, the soldiers of our fierce tiger army suffered more than 4000 casualties, but as many as 40000 Kushan soldiers were captured, and countless of them were killed. In this battle, the fierce tiger army won a great victory. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty, the army under the last general suffered more than 3000 casualties and captured more than 40000 Kushan soldiers. The killing of this war is still in the statistics. However, the number of slaughters is certainly not equal to the number of captives. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly and looked at Gao Lan and Zhang Ren.


    Gao Lan said, "Your Majesty, the Liangzhou army, which is subordinate to your humble position, suffered nearly 2000 casualties and captured more than 20000 Kushan soldiers."


    Zhang Ren said simply: "the Yizhou army under his humble command suffered more than 3000 casualties and 40000 prisoners. However, there are many wounded soldiers in Yizhou army, and many of them can no longer go to the battlefield. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought a little and said with a smile on her face, "so we have captured 140000 Kushan soldiers with the loss of 12000 people. Not only that, but also a lot of them. "


    "Yes


    Gan Ning nodded and replied, "but some of these prisoners were killed by us in the camp of the Kushan army. The auxiliary soldiers of the prisoners were not the elite soldiers in the previous battle."


    Zhang Ren, Gao Lan and Zhao Yun also agreed.


    There are also some auxiliary soldiers among their captives. Otherwise, they would not have captured so many. After all, some of the soldiers who followed vesuva left, others fled, and many of them ran away.


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "since we have defeated Wei sudiva, the next step is to sweep Dunhuang county. Within a month, they recaptured Dunhuang County, and then the army gathered at the border of Dunhuang County, ready to enter Kushan. "


    "Here it is


    All the generals responded.


    Every face is full of fighting spirit. For them, it was a simple thing to sweep Dunhuang.


    Zhang Xiu turned her eyes, looked at Pang Tong, and said, "all the Kushan prisoners are still sold as slaves according to the previous disposal plan."


    "Yes, I do!"


    Pang Tong responded respectfully.


    Now he is very handy in selling slaves, so it is very easy for him to sell the slaves of more than 100000 people. The only thing that is a little more complicated is that after all the slaves are sold, they should be tracked to make sure that they know where the large-scale slaves are going.


    It''s a little more complicated.


    But it was not difficult for Pang Tong.

 Chapter 1218

    Zhang Xiu''s army stayed at the border of Dunhuang County for less than half a month before setting out. Before that, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and others had already entered Dunhuang. Zhang Xiu stayed because she had to deal with all the captive slaves.


    The slaves of more than 100000 people are not a small number.


    Batch after batch of slaves were sold and sent back home.


    Batch after batch of slaves were replaced with real gold and silver, as well as mountains of grain.


    With food and money, military officers and men who should be rewarded have already begun to be rewarded, and those who should be given pension have begun to receive pension. The whole army of the Qin Dynasty was jubilant. Especially for the soldiers fighting in the front line, Zhang Xiu started to pay rewards in the rear, which was even more inspiring and made the generals and officers of the army celebrate.


    After everything was handled properly, Zhang Xiucai led the team to continue on their way.


    Zhang Xiu was accompanied by a small number of troops, that is, more than 3000 people, including Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others. After they entered Dunhuang, because all the counties and places in Dunhuang had been taken, they had a smooth journey.


    It''s still hot in July.


    But at night, the temperature also dropped a lot, not as hot as before.


    Zhang Xiu arrived at the western border of Dunhuang county and settled down in Dunhuang county.


    Dunhuang county is the seat of Dunhuang county.


    It is located in the westernmost part of Dunhuang county.


    Zhang Xiu camped outside the city, but did not enter the city. After meeting with Ganning and Zhao Yun, he immediately raised his account to discuss the matter. He called Zhao Yun and Ganning together and asked, "now that the army is stationed in Dunhuang, how much do you know about the situation of the Western Regions?"


    Gan Ning said: "tell your majesty, although all the countries in the western regions have been wiped out by Kushan. But in fact, all these countries in the western regions have their own lineage to escape. So to stir up the situation in the western regions, we can start with these people. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "where are people?"


    Gan Ning replied, "they are all in the city. They all live in Dunhuang."


    Zhang Xiu, with a soft expression, said, "if that''s the case, I''ll see you. Ganning, you immediately arrange for your attendants to send orders. I''ll be in the camp waiting for their arrival. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    Gan Ning said: "Your Majesty, these people from the western regions have actually settled down. They don''t have much power now. So now, we just need our support, and these people will certainly be obedient. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "I''ll wait and see!"


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue stepped in.


    Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, there are a group of people from outside the camp. They are all princes and nobles of western regions. These people came together and asked to see your majesty. "


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When Wang Yue got the order, he immediately went to inform him.


    Soon, a group of people with different clothes, even different skin color and dress, entered.


    With a cursory scan, Zhang Xiu entered at least 50 people. In particular, as soon as these people entered, the originally quiet Chinese army tent suddenly became as noisy as a vegetable market.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes passed by, but she didn''t stop it.


    Let these people be noisy.


    He wants to see how noisy these people will be. When Zhang Xiu didn''t speak, the princes and nobles of the western regions had not found anything unusual for a while. They were still chatting and talking in their own way, which was very lively. But as time went by, after a while, these people found that Zhang Xiu had not spoken.


    At this moment, the big tent suddenly quieted down.


    Everything was quiet again.


    A pair of eyes, fell on Zhang Xiu, and even on many faces, this moment no longer the previous calm, but on the face more uneasy and worried. After all, they are all people who have lost their country.


    The corner of Zhang Xiu''s mouth rose and said, "why don''t you tell me? Good, since we don''t talk about it. Now, it''s up to me. What can I do for you when you come to see me together? "


    As soon as the words came out, many people were ready to speak.


    After all, there are more than 50 people.


    However, before they spoke, Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, motioned for everyone to be quiet, interrupted everyone''s plan to speak separately, and continued: "there are too many of you, so you don''t have to speak individually. Now, you name one person to represent all of you and express your opinions. "


    People from all over the western regions frowned.


    Some of these people in the western regions were strong, some were weak, and even some were just a small tribe. In particular, many people used to be hostile, distrusting and hostile to each other.


    Under such a premise, it is difficult to recommend people.


    Even many people started to argue.


    At this moment, the Chinese army tent, which had just been quiet, suddenly became noisy again.Zhang Xiu is still in the dominant position.


    He didn''t stop the disputing people, but said lightly: "since you can''t elect a representative, then you can step down. When do you recommend someone, come back to me. "


    Zhang Xiu''s words made the princes and nobles of the western regions tremble and panic. They are worried that now, Zhang Xiu does not buy, it will be very difficult.


    So these people had disputes, but now, all of a sudden, they resolved the disputes and stopped arguing. All of them sought similarities and differences at this moment, and in a short time, they elected a representative.


    This man''s name is Ulman.


    He was once a Duke of kuizi. After the Kushan army arrived at kuizi and destroyed kuizi, wurmanfu fled from kuizi and finally settled in Dunhuang.


    After Zhang Xiu''s army expelled the Kushan army, wurmanfu finally stood up.


    He was about fifty years old, and his hair was gray.


    But in the thin eyes, there was a twinkling of cunning light. He raised his right hand, put it on his chest, bent over to salute Zhang Xiu, and said, "Your Majesty, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, wumanfu of the kuci Kingdom, on behalf of people from all countries in the western regions, pay a visit to your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "tell me, what are you here for?"


    Urmanf said solemnly: "to report back to the emperor, we are willing to serve Daqin. Both the kuci Kingdom and other princes from Loulan, Wusun, Yanqi, Qiemo, Shule and other countries agreed that they should attach themselves to Daqin and respect Daqin as their sovereign state. "


    After a pause, urmanf continued: "what we want is simply that Daqin can help us recover our country. In addition, give us some equipment so that we can equip some of our troops. Our request is that simple. "


    Zhang Xiu heard that the corners of her mouth rose, and stirred up a sneer.


    People in the western regions are very good at abacus. If they respect Daqin as the suzerain, they want to restore the country unconditionally. Even Zhang Xiu had to be equipped with weapons.


    The people of the western regions paid nothing, but they got countless benefits.


    Zhang Xiu is thankless.


    This kind of thing, Zhang Xiu is not willing to do, hit swollen face filling fat thing, can''t happen in Daqin.

 Chapter 1219

    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if I want to send troops to attack the western regions, I must continue to fight against Kushan. However, my officers and men have worked hard to take the territory of the western regions, but they still have to return it to you. What''s the reason? "


    URMan was stunned.


    There were some accidents.


    As an old man, he has seen the world and knows some rules of the Central Plains. In the Central Plains, the Heavenly Kingdom and the Great Han Dynasty were always ceremonial and moral, and always preached enlightenment. Now the Emperor Qin and the Han took the initiative to accept all the food, and he should promise them to live.


    However, Zhang Xiu is unwilling.


    In Zhang Xiu''s reply, she even asked questions, like she didn''t want to give the territory to Daqin.


    URMan took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, the territory of the western regions is handed down from generation to generation. Just like this Daqin, it belongs to the emperor. "


    "In the territory of Daqin, under any circumstances, Daqin is Daqin and everything belongs to Daqin. Regardless of the change of time, regardless of the flow of mountains and rivers, the territory of Daqin will always belong to Daqin. "


    "The same is true of Kucha."


    "The territory of Kucha state began in the early years. All the territories of Kucha state belong to Kucha state, not to other states. In the same way, the territory of the rest of the countries belongs to them. "


    Urmanf said: "therefore, I think it is extremely undesirable for his majesty to seize the territory of the western countries. Because it''s just a narrow place, but it''s the end result of innumerable people''s hearts.


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "but the problem is that the territory of kuci, Shule and other countries was also seized by former people. In your opinion, the territory of Kucha and other countries does not belong to Kucha. "


    Brush!


    Urmanf''s face changed slightly.


    Unexpectedly, his proposal was denied, and even Zhang Xiu did so obviously to annex the territory of the western regions.


    Zhang Xiu''s ambition as a wolf is very clear.


    If the Kushan kingdom is a wolf, then Zhang Xiu is a tiger.


    They are not good people.


    Urmanf took a deep breath, calmed his restless mood, and then said: "according to the emperor''s will, it is impossible to return our land to us. Even his Majesty''s intention is to annex our territory. Am I right to say that


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is impossible for him to hand over the territory of the western regions to the princes and nobles of the western regions.


    It is impossible to give benefits unconditionally.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    Urmanf said in a deep voice: "since the emperor said that, then we have nothing to talk about. There is a saying in the Central Plains, which is called saying nothing more than half a sentence. We and the emperor, too, don''t have much to say. Goodbye


    With that, he was ready to leave.


    The rest of the princes and nobles in the western regions also took a look at Zhang Xiu one by one and were ready to leave.


    Zhang Xiu shook her sleeve robe and said calmly, "come as you want and go as you want. You are so naive. Since you have come to me, please stay. "


    As soon as the voice fell, the soldiers stood out at the gate of the barracks and stopped everyone''s retreat.


    Wurmanfu said: "Zhang Xiu, what are you going to do?"


    He has been called by his first name.


    At the moment, urmanf''s heart is full of anger. He didn''t expect to visit Zhang Xiu himself. Instead, he went into Hukou and couldn''t even leave. It''s just outrageous.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. You are in vain to be the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. "


    "Zhang Xiu, release people immediately."


    "We are all kings of the western regions. You are not going to let people go."


    One by one, they kept talking, very angry.


    They are full of indignant accusations, but Rao is so. These people''s hearts are full of worries. They are worried that they are really killed by Zhang Xiu. After all, there is only one life. If they are really killed, there will be nothing left.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people''s words, but she was not angry and seemed very calm.


    The reaction of these people is expected.


    For Zhang Xiu, these are locusts, who intend to draw blood from him. Zhang Xiu will not give any good looks. Because Zhang Xiu is not a good man or a person who likes to support the enemy.


    Now, if a lot of money is given to these people, in a twinkling of an eye, these princes and nobles of the western regions will soon become enemies of Zhang Xiu and the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu said nothing.


    He still didn''t speak, so the angry crowd gradually subsided.


    After all, they can''t leave, and they can''t take Zhang Xiu.


    After half a sound, peace returned to the camp.


    Zhang Xiu then said: "now it''s quiet again. Since everyone doesn''t speak, I''ll tell you, you all listen." At the moment, Zhang Xiu''s words are full of strength and indisputable."Zhang Xiu, you are so overbearing!"


    At the moment, one of the people came out to drink. This man is not tall, but he is quite strong. He has a big belly and a big beard under his jaw. He looks very rough.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "who are you?"


    "I am Qiping, the prince of Yanqi."


    Qi Ping began to speak. He looked discontented and said, "there is an old saying in the central plains that those who are successful in the way help more, while those who are not. We have come to you to help you and honor you as your sovereign nation. But now, you are trying to seize our respective territory. If you act against us in this way, you will have nothing in the end. "


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    I didn''t expect that he was still of a certain standard. He knew that those who were successful helped more and those who were not.


    Unfortunately, it''s useless.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "come on, drag people down and cut them down."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers were ordered to rush in immediately and go out with Qi Ping.


    "Let me go, let me go."


    Qi Ping made a sound in his mouth and cried out.


    Even Qi Ping began to struggle, but his strength was like a naughty child in front of the soldiers in the army. He could not shake the soldiers at all, but made himself very uncomfortable.


    "Drag it down!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    With the order passed down, dragging Qi Ping''s soldiers to go out quickly. In full view of the public, Qiping was dragged away. After a while, there was a shrill scream, and the sound stopped suddenly.


    Inside the camp, there was a complete silence.


    All the princes and nobles of the western regions were silent at this moment, and they were afraid. They didn''t expect that Qi Ping would be put to death just by saying a word.


    Zhang Xiu is too overbearing.


    People from all over the western regions, however, do not dare to speak out.


    I''m afraid I''ll annoy Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu looked around the crowd, eyes one by one, the sharp eyes over the place, one by one the western regions princes and nobles, all avoid Zhang Xiu''s eyes, dare not face up to Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    "Now, you are willing to listen to me again."


    Zhang Xiu spoke lightly.


    Everyone looked at Zhang Xiu, and no one dared to speak again. Qi Ping interrupts Zhang Xiu and is killed. With Qi Ping''s lessons, Zhang Xiu completely subdued everyone.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you are willing to be my help. I''m not stingy of rewards. I can give you high office and wealth, and I can give you honor and wealth. But if you don''t want to cooperate and want to leave, don''t blame me for being impolite. "


    Brush!


    People''s faces changed again.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s practice is too overbearing.


    It''s even more outrageous.


    But even so, no one dares to speak.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you stand on the left if you are willing to submit to me one by one. Those who do not want to submit to me or obey my instructions will stand on the right and give you half an hour to make a choice. "


    Words fall, but people are numb, because they are used to the strength of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu seems to give a choice, but with Qi Ping''s lessons, who dares not to listen to the dispatch.


    Once he refuses Zhang Xiu, he will be killed.


    Therefore, even if no one expressed his position at the beginning, in the end, all the people chose to stand on the left side and were willing to submit to Zhang Xiu and listen to her.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "it''s said that those who know current affairs are heroes. I''m very glad that you have made a choice."


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu said.


    "Yes


    Wang Yue went out of the tent and saluted in the tent.


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "put all the princes and nobles in the western regions to rest in the army. From today on, Haosheng will serve them without slighting them. But everyone must also stay in the army and be at their disposal. There is no amnesty for those who intend to flee and disobey orders. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue''s fist should be thrown.


    Urmanf and others are all silent.


    Compared with before, although they have lost their country, they have their own money, no lack of food and clothing, and are free. They have a good life, but now everything has changed.


    They became prisoners.


    And I lost my freedom.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "take them down to have a rest, so that they can be served."


    "Yes, sir


    After Wang Yue answered, he waved his hand to the crowd and led them to the front. Urmanf and others, even helpless, can only follow behind, dare not have any complaints.

 Chapter 1220

    In the barracks.


    The princes and nobles of the western regions all lived in the camps. The people of urmanf and other countries do not live alone, but live together in many countries. Especially in this camp, the freedom of urmanf and others was not restricted, but they could not go out.


    As the leader of kuci state, urmanf is not only the leader of age and experience, but also the representative of western regions because he is good at handling affairs and is good at dancing.


    Now urmanf is sitting on the throne.


    Below, there are people from Wusun, Loulan, Qiemo and other countries.


    The principal of Wusun kingdom was a middle-aged man in his early thirties. His name was nanxumi. He looked at urmanf sitting on the throne and said, "Mr. urmanf, what do you think we should do under the present circumstances?"


    "Yes, you can''t let Zhang Xiu knead it like this."


    The principal of Loulan state is an old minister of Loulan state. His name is sun dianchen.


    With a pile of whiskers under his jaw, he said in a deep voice, "Mr. urmanf, you are the wise among us. What should we do. Previously in Zhang Xiu''s camp, I dare not speak. Now, without the threat of Zhang Xiu, we have to discuss and come up with a solution. "


    The rest of them agreed.


    After hearing this, URMan looked solemn and dignified.


    He also knows that the current situation is unfavorable. Now that they are controlled by Zhang Xiu, they have to work for Zhang Xiu, which is equivalent to being Zhang Xiu''s puppets. With urmanf''s wisdom, he judged that the current situation would not be free until Zhang Xiu annexed the western regions. Because by that time, they will have no use value.


    URMan coughed twice, and everyone was quiet.


    Everybody''s looking at uman.


    "I understand your considerations and your worries, and I can deeply understand them." Urmanf said: "now, we are imprisoned by Zhang Xiu. It is impossible to leave Dunhuang county. In other words, it is impossible to leave the military camp. If you want to be free, the first thing to do now is to think of a way out. "


    Sun dianchen said: "Mr. urmanf, the problem we are facing now is that we have no escape strategy."


    "Yes, Mr. urmanf, please use your mind." Nanxumi said, "after all, we all depend on Mr. Ulman now. Without Mr. urmanf''s plan, we would be completely finished. "


    The crowd was still staring at uman.


    His eyes were blazing, and he was eager to come up with a solution immediately.


    URMan was silent.


    He used his brain quickly to think about the solution.


    All the people were silent and waiting.


    As time goes by, a quarter of an hour goes by quietly. At this time, there is still no one to speak, one by one sits down, and his back is sour. But now, URMan has not opened his mouth, and he still thinks with his eyes closed.


    All of a sudden, wurmanfu opened his eyes. In the depth of his eyes, there was a light. He said with a straight face, "I think of a way that is not a way. Maybe it''s possible."


    Sun dianchen said, "what can I do?"


    The rest of the people spoke.


    "We''re going to leave the camp, we''re going to be free again. So the only way is to take Zhang Xiu. Because in today''s situation, we can not submit to Zhang Xiu. In other words, even if he is obedient to Zhang Xiu, he will not rest assured of us. "


    "So, only take down Zhang Xiu."


    "It''s just Zhang Xiu who is sitting in the big account of the Chinese army. It will be very difficult to take him down. Even if we want to see Zhang Xiu, it''s quite difficult. "


    "Therefore, we must have enough interests to arouse Zhang Xiu''s interest."


    Urmanf said: "in this way, we can get close to Zhang Xiu and win her."


    Sun dianchen said, "Mr. urmanf, I have also considered the method you mentioned. But the problem is how to get close to Zhang Xiu, which is very difficult. If you can''t get close to Zhang Xiu, everything will be in vain. "


    "There''s a way," URMan said


    Sun dianchen said, "what can I do?"


    Urmanf replied: "as far as I know, Khotan is a national treasure. It''s a pearl of the night. It''s the size of a goose''s egg. It''s extremely round. At night, it can burst out a brilliant light


    The person in charge of Khotan was indeed present. He was the king he Lancheng. As soon as he heard the words of uman Fu, he said: "uman Fu, the night pearl is the treasure of Khotan. What do you mean by that? Do you want our country in Khotan to present the night pearl to Zhang Xiu, and then take the opportunity to get close to Zhang Xiu? "


    "Smart!"


    URMan nodded.


    "No way!"


    He Lancheng, the leader of Khotan, shook his head and said, "this is not only the treasure of Khotan, but also the inheritance of Khotan''s throne. It''s impossible for me to hand over the night pearl. "Urmanf stroked his beard under his jaw, shook his head and sighed, "well, since the Lord of Khotan doesn''t want to, let it go. We have to deal with Zhang Xiu''s affairs. If we want to get freedom, let it go. "


    The main face of Khotan changed slightly.


    He also does not want to be the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, and does not want to be controlled by Zhang Xiu. Can let him hand over the night pearl, he is not willing to, feel the flesh ache.


    The others frowned when they heard the words.


    They were all disappointed.


    Sun dianchen said: "helancheng, the night pearl is really the symbol of Khotan. However, if Khotan is completely destroyed, there is no symbol or inheritance of the throne. "


    After a pause, sun dianchen said: "on the contrary, you take out the night pearl now, and we will deal with Zhang Xiu. Once you leave Dunhuang County, even if you don''t have the night pearl as a national treasure, Khotan will stay. What''s more, it''s the value of the night pearl, which everyone will agree with. "


    Others, too, are persuading. They all hope that he Lancheng will hand over the night pearl. After all, only when he takes out the night pearl can the plan of Khotan continue to be carried out.


    He Lancheng''s face changes again and again.


    There was also hesitation in him.


    If you hand over the night pearl, you can''t get it back. However, it is impossible for Khotan to recover without handing over the night pearl.


    Wurmanf said slowly: "helancheng, I won''t say more about which is more important. What you plan for, what you decide, just follow your heart. I don''t mind whether you agree or not. "


    Others, too, began to persuade.


    Under the persuasion of all the people, he Lancheng''s heart was even more shaken, and finally nodded: "OK, I agree."


    "Good, good, good!"


    At this moment, urmanf said three good words in succession.


    Others praised he Lancheng.


    They all praise he Lancheng''s lofty demeanor and integrity, and praise he Lancheng''s profound righteousness. All the people are happy and smiling, but he Lancheng''s face is embarrassed and can''t smile at all.

 Chapter 1221

    He Lancheng clenched his teeth and said, "Mr. urmanf, I have admitted that I have given up the night pearl. However, after I handed over the night pearl, even though I approached Zhang Xiu by the opportunity of offering the night pearl, in fact, it was not easy to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    Wurmanfu said: "of course, with the night pearl, we must also be able to deal with Zhang Xiu. Just as it happens, there is a dagger named Qiushui in Qiuci. It blows hair and cuts iron like mud. "


    "With this dagger and a warrior. Then, you can let the samurai go to offer the night pearl, hide the dagger under the box of the night pearl, and assassinate Zhang Xiu by the chance of being close to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Of course, it''s not really an assassination."


    "We should control Zhang Xiu."


    In urmanf''s eyes, a light flashed and he said, "this time, as long as we make Zhang Xiu. You can force Zhang Xiu to leave Dunhuang county quickly. As long as we leave, we can get out of danger. This is my detailed plan, ladies and gentlemen. What do you think of it? "


    "I agree," Sun said


    After hearing this, he Lancheng pondered it carefully and said with emotion: "originally, I was worried. But now, after listening to Mr. urmanf''s plan, it''s really a clever plan. Although we are confined to the barracks, we cannot leave the barracks. But in fact, our respective entourage can go in and out of the barracks. Now, start to prepare according to the elements mentioned just now. "


    "It''s not urgent. There are still people who have not been decided."


    "Nowadays, it''s necessary to select a person with excellent martial arts skills," urmanf said. Only in this way can Zhang Xiu be controlled. "


    "It''s not difficult."


    The principal of Kang juguo spoke.


    His name is Chu Youhong.


    Once upon a time, Chu Youhong was also a man of the Han Dynasty and was an official in Liangzhou. Because of the misfortune of Danggu, he wandered to kangjuguo in the western regions and became an official of kangjuguo. Later, the Kushan army entered the western regions, and Kang juguo was also destroyed. Chu Youhong fled with Kang juguo''s little prince and lurked in Dunhuang county.


    This time Chu Youhong came alone.


    Chu Youhong said: "I live in Kangju state. I''m very powerful. His name is black dog. He is a warrior of Kangju. Now he is with me. At that time, the black dog can come forward, hand over the box, and then take advantage of the mechanism to live Zhang Xiu. "


    Wurmanfu nodded: "yes, Mr. Chu has a point."


    After a pause, uman said: "in that case, there is no need to say more. Now, get busy. We have to deal with the matter and act early so that we can leave Dunhuang as soon as possible. "


    All of us should go down together.


    One by one, they told their followers to take action.


    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu deals with government affairs.


    But Wang Yue came in from the outside. After bowing to Zhang Xiu, he said, "Your Majesty, I just received a message from the royal guards. Although all the people of Wusun, kuci, Qiemo and Kangju remained in the army. But some of these people have arranged for their entourage to leave the barracks. "


    "Because considering that they were in the camp, they didn''t limit anything. So our people didn''t stop them, they just followed the people who left the barracks. "


    "But I''m afraid there''s some intrigue in these people''s arrangement."


    Wang Yue solemnly said, "after all, these people are not good people."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I will pay attention to it. When it comes to the affairs of various countries in the western regions, I will pay more attention to it."


    Wang Yue said: "in this way, I can rest assured."


    Without much delay, he went to his own business.


    In the evening, the attendants arranged by urmanf, helancheng and others have all returned.


    Everyone''s back in the camp.


    Urmanf gathered people from all over the world together, glanced at them, and said: "you, all the conditions involved have been achieved. Now the simple thing to do is to be ready to give the night pearl


    He Lancheng said, "when will it be given away?"


    "Tomorrow morning is OK, after all, it''s very late now. At this time, Zhang Xiu may not meet us. In short, it''s not a bad thing to slow down. "


    When they heard the words, they went to rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, wurmanfu just got up and was having breakfast when he Lancheng, sun dianchen and others had gathered.


    All these people are here.


    He Lancheng took the lead in saying: "Mr. urmanf, do you need all of us to present the night pearl. After all, more people make it easier to do things. "


    "Not right!"


    URMan shook his head and spoke.


    He Lancheng asked, "why?"


    Urmanf replied: "if everyone goes, it is obvious that there is no silver here, which makes Zhang Xiu suspicious. Therefore, according to my opinion, he Lancheng from Kang juguo is going with the night pearl. In addition, let the black dog accompany. At that time, the black dog handed the box. In the moment of presenting the box, he chose to take Zhang Xiu"Not right!"


    At this time, he Lancheng shook his head and answered.


    "Why?" URMan asked


    He Lancheng said: "through the night pearl, you can really get close to Zhang Xiu. But last night, after careful consideration, I found that it was very difficult. Because this last link, when presenting the box, it can''t be presented in person. There must be Zhang Xiu''s personal guard to protect it. At that time, it will be even more difficult to assassinate Zhang Xiu. In other words, there is no chance to get close to Zhang Xiu. "


    This is he Lancheng''s way of thinking all night.


    When urmanf heard this, he said, "it''s true. I didn''t think about it. However, since he Lancheng raised the crux of the problem, how can he solve the final problem? "


    He Lancheng said: "there is no need for extra people, just a black dog."


    Wurmanfu said: "the last problem is still unsolved. In the end, how can we solve this problem? "


    He Lancheng said: "I think so..."


    Immediately, he Lancheng put forward a detailed plan.


    In fact, he Lancheng''s plan is not difficult, even relatively simple. So when he Lancheng put forward his plan, no matter urmanf, sun dianchen, or other people in western regions agreed with him.


    Wurmanfu said: "this time, if we can get away smoothly, it all depends on the plan of helancheng. The plan I mentioned almost went wrong. "


    He Lancheng said: "the love of Mr. wurmanfu should not be praised like this."


    "Now, we can all go on our own. Just a moment later, black dog will take the night pearl to Zhang Xiu''s tent and offer the night pearl to her. "


    When they heard the words, they each stepped down.

 Chapter 1222

    Black dog is a man with a great sense of justice.


    He was more dedicated to the country, so when the black dog was arranged by Chu Youhong, he decided to give his life. Even if he died, he would control Zhang Xiu and find a way to live for Kang.


    The black dog stayed up all night.


    I have been thinking about how to successfully complete the task. After a night, the black dog is still in spirit, especially the look in his eyes, which is bright and even sharp.


    The black dog dressed up after breakfast.


    Today, he''s dressed up.


    In particular, the black dog is tall, very strong, very heroic. When he came out of the camp, he saw Chu Youhong, URMan Fu, sun dianchen and others coming. In addition, the night pearl had already been delivered, which was packed in a square box.


    Wurmanf handed the box to the black dog and said, "black dog, it''s up to you today. Previously, you were a tiger General of Kang juguo, but now, you are the representative of Kang juguo. You need to be careful in your words and deeds, and you can never be underestimated by Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for you to get close to Zhang Xiu. "


    The black dog said, "don''t worry, Mr. wurmanfu. The black dog will save everything."


    "That''s about it. Go on!"


    Urmanf spoke again.


    The black dog held the box in his hand, and then someone brought a piece of silk to cover the box. Then, the black dog in the eyes of the people, holding the box to the direction of the Chinese army tent.


    Wurmanfu looked at the back of the black dog. He could not help clenching his hand in his sleeve.


    He was very nervous.


    Because success or failure depends on it.


    Chu Youhong said: "Mr. wurmanfu, if the plan is successful, there will be no problem. But if it fails. Do you think it will involve us then? "


    Urmanf sighed: "even if it is involved, there is no way. But I''ve already told black dog about it. I expect he''ll take all the responsibility. "


    Sun dianchen said, "I hope I can succeed."


    The others spoke one after another, and their faces looked hopeful.


    We all hope to succeed.


    No one wants to fail, because failure is not good news for them.


    Black dog holding the box, to the Chinese Army outside the tent, at this time, the weather is just right. The golden sun came down from the sky and made the camp look golden.


    Black dog immediately came forward, the way to know his identity, is the envoy of Kang juguo. Then, the black dog asked the soldiers stationed at the door to report, saying that they wanted to see Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, he put down his brush and thought about it.


    Yesterday, Wang Yue specially reported the news.


    Let him be careful of the envoys of the western regions.


    Be prepared for these people.


    Now, the black dog to see, Zhang Xiu''s heart, is also vigilant. Zhang Xiu is confident that she will not be affected. However, Zhang Xiu is not careless, this is his style.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "hang him!"


    "Yes


    The soldier immediately went to convey, saw the black dog, then said: "Your Majesty is busy now, there are many government affairs to deal with. Now, wait! If you want to wait, just wait. If you don''t want to wait, go back. "


    "I''ll wait!"


    The black dog had a cool face.


    Such things as waiting for people are nothing more than standing for a while and nothing will be lost.


    Time goes by.


    In succession, many people have entered the barracks. These people come in and go out, and the number is at least 20 or 30. Black dog saw all this in his eyes, his face was still Gujing bubo, he was still waiting.


    Near noon, outside the camp, the sun was rising, already quite hot.


    On the forehead of the black dog, there were already fine beads of sweat.


    Black dog''s clothes and back have been wet.


    Even if the box with the night pearl is not heavy, it is quite uncomfortable to keep such a movement. But the black dog was still motionless, still waiting.


    He would never give up until he saw Zhang Xiu.


    When the black dog was very tired, a soldier came up and said, "go in, your majesty wants to see you."


    "Thank you, thank you!"


    Black dog quickly thanks, and then step in.


    When walking around, the black dog moves his body quickly to avoid stiffness. After all, he still has to control Zhang Xiu. Once he doesn''t move now, it''s hard to move later.


    The black dog entered the camp and stood in the middle of the camp. Then he bowed and said, "black dog, envoy of Kangju state, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, what''s the matter?"


    The black dog raised the box in his hands and said in a straight tone: "to your majesty, this is a treasure of our country, which has been treasured by Kang juguo. It''s a pearl of the night. I, Kang juguo, would like to present this moment''s night pearl to the emperor. Please accept it. "Then he held the box high.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, her own attendants went to take over the brocade box and put it on the desk in front of Zhang Xiu. Looking at the brocade box on the desk, Zhang Xiu''s eyes flitted a trace of vigilance.


    With a wave of his hand, the attendant lifted the silk cover and opened the brocade box.


    A round bead the size of a goose egg is quietly lying in the brocade box.


    Because it''s in broad daylight, there''s nothing special at a glance. The night pearl needs to wait until at night, to be able to burst out a bright light, dazzling.


    Zhang Xiu took out the night pearl and weighed it in her hand. She said, "Kang juguo has a heart. I''m very satisfied."


    Black dog''s face, still full of smile.


    He said: "Your Majesty, if this night pearl is only a night pearl, it can''t be used as the treasure of our country. At night, the night pearl can shine and burst out gorgeous colors. But in the daytime, there is something special. But this special place needs to find the right position. "


    At this point, the black dog pause, just way: "black dog, willing to demonstrate for the emperor, please the emperor''s permission."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she saw a light in her eyes.


    Interesting!


    It''s very interesting.


    Zhang Xiu did not refuse and said, "come on!"


    "Thank you


    After hearing this, the black dog showed a relieved look on his face. Immediately, as soon as he shook his sleeve robe, he went straight forward and came to Zhang Xiu''s desk. He spread his hands and moved forward slowly.


    Zhang Xiu handed the night pearl to the black dog and asked the black dog to prepare for the demonstration.


    The black dog said: "sire, the demonstration of the night pearl needs the help of this brocade box. Although this brocade box is an implement for carrying the night pearl, in fact, it complements the night pearl and is indispensable. "


    Zhang Xiu waved: "you go on!"


    Black dog put the night pearl in the brocade box, then picked up the brocade box and carried it in the air, looking at it. At this time, the black dog''s hand, however, had already touched the bottom of the brocade box and pressed down a raised position at the bottom.


    Black dog with a little bit of force.


    There was only a click, which was very weak. But with the sound, the handle of a dagger popped out at the bottom of the brocade box towards the black dog. As soon as he lifted his hand, he grasped the short handle of the dagger, took out the dagger, threw away the brocade box, and went straight to Zhang Xiu.


    "Kill


    Black dogs drink low.


    He is already from the side of the desk, directly close to Zhang Xiu, want to take down Zhang Xiu.


    In the face of the black dog, Zhang Xiu is not impatient, and even has a clear look in her eyes. Because from the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu is on guard against the black dog. At the moment when the black dog suddenly moves, Zhang Xiu is on guard.


    Zhang Xiu rubbed and stood up.


    He clenched his hand into a fist and stepped forward. The whole person came to the black dog in an instant and handed out a fist.

 Chapter 1223

    This punch avoided the black dog''s dagger. His fist was as fast as lightning. The next moment, he hit the black dog''s chest. With a bang, peiran''s strength burst out. If the black dog was struck by lightning, his body would fly upside down and crash to the ground.


    "Hiss!"


    The black dog fell to the ground and took a breath.


    The whole chest, as if about to sag down, extremely uncomfortable.


    However, black dog must have been a military general. He has already turned over. The black dog clenched the dagger in his hand, drank a low, then quickly rushed to Zhang Xiu again.


    He wants to take Zhang Xiu.


    He had to take Zhang Xiu.


    Even if it is death, it must achieve its goal.


    Black dog''s speed is extremely fast, in the twinkling of an eye rushes to Zhang Xiu''s body, in the hand dagger swings again, cuts down mercilessly. But at the moment when he cut off the dagger, Zhang Xiu raised her left hand like lightning, and then blocked the black dog''s right arm, which made the speed of cutting slow.


    The black dog subconsciously moves his arm backward, intending to scratch Zhang Xiu''s arm with a dagger.


    But the black dog just has the movement, Zhang Xiu''s right fist hits again.


    This punch is stronger.


    Already has the strength of Zhang Xiu.


    Just as the fierce and domineering force poured down from his fist, there was only a bang. If the black dog''s body was struck by lightning, he would fall back on the ground. He had already been knocked unconscious, and the dagger fell to the ground with a bang.


    This punch is too strong.


    As a result, the black dog was beaten to death.


    At this time, the curtain of the barracks door was lifted up, and Wang Yue also brought people in. He looked at the black dog lying on the ground, knelt down on one knee, clasped his fist and said, "Your Majesty, I''m late to help you. Please your majesty surrender."


    "I don''t blame you!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Wang Yue bit his teeth and said, "these people in the western regions are really looking for death. When you think about it, your majesty


    Zhang Xiu said: "just like before, the prince of Wusun kingdom was very popular in hunting. At that time, he thought that he had Wusun jade seal and wanted to restore the country with the help of my power, and then set aside me. Today, the same is true of people from western regions. If you don''t want to pay the price, you should exchange my support for them, or even let me give them benefits unconditionally. "


    "It''s all naive people."


    "Especially among these people, there are people from the so-called Wusun Kingdom, who don''t know whether they are true or not. But against, this is not important, I have no impact


    "Because I rejected them and disillusioned them, I wanted to see nothing."


    As Zhang Xiu spoke, her face gradually cooled down and she said in a deep voice, "the reason why I don''t kill them or deal with them is that they are still useful. But if they think that I dare not kill people because of this, they are very wrong. "


    Wang Yue immediately said: "Your Majesty, I immediately arrested all these people and cut them. A group of damned idiots are living impatiently to count on your majesty. They want to die. I''ll help them. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "if you cut it, you don''t have to. Take people and gather all the people in the western regions in the campsite. Next, I have something to say."


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned to arrange it.


    Zhang Xiu returned to the seat, looked at the black dog lying on the ground and sneered.


    A man who has some martial arts skills wants to assassinate him. That''s a fool''s dream. I''m afraid the martial arts of black dog can''t even compare with Gan Ning, let alone Lv Bu''s.


    Such a person''s action is pure death.


    After half a sound, black dog wakes up. He finds himself lying on the ground. He looks up to the position where Zhang Xiu is. When he sees Zhang Xiu, he bites his teeth, reaches out his hand and pats her on the ground. He wants to stand up. But when he holds his hand on the ground, he feels that his skeleton is stinging. He can''t even lift up a little bit of strength.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it''s hard for you to get up now. If I punch you down, you will not only be breathless, but also hurt your internal organs. If you can force your hand now, I will admire you. "


    Black dog smell speech, a face helpless look.


    He really can''t work.


    The black dog carefully supported himself and then stood up.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come on, who ordered you to assassinate me. If you don''t tell the story clearly, I''m afraid the people who live in kangkuo will have a hard time. "


    The black dog raised his head and said, "no one instructs me or dares to do so. The reason why I do this is not to be ordered by others, but to kill you. We from the western regions have come to submit to you and serve you. But you, Zhang Xiu, are so ambitious that you intend to annex all the countries in the western regions


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Laughter, full of irony.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu finished laughing and said with a sarcastic look on her face, "black dog, you really should pee and take a look at yourself.""Western region countries, do you still think that you are the masters of western region countries?"


    "Just a bunch of broken houses."


    "Now, you can''t even compare with the most common people in Daqin. Because today''s western regions no longer belong to you, but are occupied by Kushan. The territory of the western regions also belongs to Kushan. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "after I defeat the Kushan army, then the territory of the western regions belongs to me. Just as you once occupied the western regions with the people of Kangju and other countries, you took it from other people, and I took it from vesudeva. "


    "As for the territory of the western regions, it never belongs to you."


    "It''s not your private territory."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "so now, I want to seize the territory of the western regions. I want to take the land of the western regions for myself. That''s my own business. Why do you care. I''ll let you lead the way and give you the chance to enjoy your splendor. That''s why I look up to you. Even without you, I can capture the western regions. "


    The black dog was furious.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, black dog is not agree with, he gritted his teeth and said: "you this is unreasonable."


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that you are just a shrimp. That''s all. I''ll interrogate you, too. Because it doesn''t make sense even to bring you up for trial. "


    The black dog frowned.


    In his heart, he had a bad feeling that Zhang Xiu was going to do something.


    Black dog is not reconciled, way: "Zhang Xiu, what do you want to do?"


    Zhang Xiu did not hide, said: "I have arranged people to gather all the people from the western regions to the school yard. Next, I will deal with this matter in the school yard. Wait


    Black dog''s heart sank.


    It''s a big deal. It''s bound to involve the rest of the people.


    The black dog was helpless.


    It was a failure, and he had nothing to do.


    After a while, Wang Yue entered again and bowed himself to say, "Your Majesty, it has been arranged."


    Zhang Xiu looked cold and said, "take the black dog and go. I really want to know what these people will look like when they know that the black dog is defeated."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to escort the black dog to the school yard with Zhang Xiu.


    Entering the school yard, urmanf, sun dianchen, Chu Youhong and others all stood. One by one before, had known the black dog assassinate Zhang Xiu defeat, so now one by one heart, incomparable worry.


    They all know the consequences of the failure of the assassination of Zhang Xiu.


    If it fails, it will be miserable.


    While everyone was talking, suddenly, someone whispered to remind Zhang Xiu that she was coming, so they looked at the entrance of the school yard and saw Zhang Xiu with a black dog.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu came to everyone.


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes swept the people of western regions one by one, and finally said, "you are really good. You let people assassinate me. Unfortunately, the strength of black dog is limited, even if it is hard to approach me, it is still defeated. Now that you have done something stupid, you have to pay for it. Now it''s time for you to pay for what you have done. "


    Brush!


    All the people in the western regions have changed greatly.


    Everyone was worried.


    It''s even more disturbing.

 Chapter 1224

    The corner of urmanf''s mouth smoked, and he was helpless. This time, he was in charge of the plan. But today, when things come to light, he, the chief planner, naturally has nothing to eat.


    The rest of the participants, they all had their eyes wandering.


    It''s all in my heart.


    Originally, there was a low voice of discussion, but at this moment, no one dare to speak.


    Everyone shut up.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as a man of Kang juguo, Heigou intends to assassinate me. Such a thing can never be planned by one or two people. So now, all of Kang juguo''s people stand up. "


    Hearing the speech, Chu Youhong came out with several people from Kang juguo.


    There are only four people.


    This still includes the black dog that was taken down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Chu Youhong and others and said, "now that you have come forward. Well, I''ll tell you honestly who participated in it and how it was planned. Black dog, you say first


    The black dog shook his head and said, "I am the one who assassinated you. There is no other accomplice. I just want to kill you with the help of the night pearl, because you, Zhang Xiu, are tyrannical and cruel, and have no humanity at all. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "bold color, not bad, not bad!"


    "Kill me!"


    Zhang Xiu''s crisp order.


    With this order issued, a soldier came forward, sword stabbed.


    Poof!


    Blood spattered and the blade pierced the chest.


    With the blade pulled out, the blood splashed out like a spring, spilled on the ground and dyed the ground red. The black dog rattled in his mouth, swayed twice, fell to the ground with a plop when it was dark.


    Brush!


    All the faces of Chu Youhong and other people who lived in Kangguo changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu is so cruel.


    If you don''t agree, you kill.


    Gudong!


    Chu Yu Hong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart was a little uneasy, more worried about his situation.


    The rest of the people in the western regions are afraid.


    When planning, they think that if the plan can be successful, they can get rid of the shackles of Zhang Xiu and no longer be controlled by Zhang Xiu. But now in the hands of Zhang Xiu, one by one heart, and worry about their own safety.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over and saw everyone''s expression change.


    His heart was scornful.


    These people are really incompetent.


    Zhang Xiu has a smile on her face, but the smile is a little cold, which makes people feel uncomfortable and afraid. Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Chu Youhong. She said faintly, "what''s your name? Now, let''s talk about it."


    Chu Youhong''s cheek twitched.


    Rao is very resourceful, and even has a gap in his heart. But at the moment, it''s hard for a skillful woman to make a meal without rice. She can''t make an excuse at all, because Zhang Xiu has killed the black dog just now.


    If he doesn''t explain, he''ll worry about being killed by Zhang Xiu.


    However, Chu Youhong could not give an explanation at will, so he gritted his teeth and said, "to your majesty, my name is Chu Youhong, an old minister of Kang juguo. This time, it was really the black dog who did it for his majesty. I have never participated in or known about this matter. He did it all by himself. "


    Chu Youhong finally chose to shirk responsibility.


    Put all the responsibility on Zha black dog. After all, the black dog has been killed.


    There''s no proof of death.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "it''s a pity that you don''t know me. Maybe you think in your heart, if you lie now, what if you get through it? In other words, they deceived me. Even, when I order to kill you, I will give you all. Unfortunately, you can''t guess my mind. I won''t give you a chance. "


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu is concise and comprehensive.


    "Ah


    Chu you Hong heard exclamation, this moment Chu you Hong, greatly regret, did not expect Zhang Xiu so overbearing direct. Even, he was not given any buffer time.


    Seeing the soldiers coming, Chu Youhong was in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty, your majesty, I''m willing to explain. I''m willing to explain clearly. Don''t kill me!"


    But Zhang Xiu turned a deaf ear.


    When the soldiers arrived at Chu Youhong, they didn''t wait for him to explain. They had already thrust out their swords.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the sword penetrated into Chu Youhong''s heart.


    A sword goes through the heart.


    With the soldiers pulling their swords out of their scabbard, blood gushing out, Chu Youhong''s eyes closed, his head raised and fell to the ground.


    This scene is even more frightening.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the other two Kang juguo people again. In fact, they really don''t know. But here in Zhang Xiu, if they don''t know, there is only one end, that is to be killed.


    In a short time, Kang juguo''s people were killed completely.After Zhang Xiu killed her, she turned her eyes and fell on URMan. She said faintly, "URMan, I know you. Yesterday, you spoke as a representative of the western regions. Now, for your part, if you can''t tell me how ugly you are. Well, you should know the end result. "


    URMan looked embarrassed.


    This is what he planned, especially now Zhang Xiu asked him questions. If wurmanf didn''t answer, with the lessons of Chu Youhong and others, he would have no way to live, and he would have been killed.


    "I said, I said!"


    URMan sighed and gave a reply.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I listen."


    "The assassination of the emperor this time is said to be an assassination, but it is not. If the emperor is really assassinated, none of us will be able to leave. Therefore, the black dog with the night pearl to go, just to control the emperor, just to intimidate you


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "I don''t care about this. I want to know who is involved in this matter and who is planning it. Who is the mastermind of this matter? "


    Urmanf said with a smile, "I''m the mastermind. I''ve decided the whole story."


    Zhang Xiu said, "and then?"


    Urmanf replied, "I planned it on my own initiative, but everyone involved has it. This matter is agreed by all. "


    In fact, everyone agrees.


    The real purpose of urmanf''s saying this is that he implicitly mentioned one thing, that is, if Zhang Xiu wants to kill anyone, she has to kill everyone.


    If Zhang Xiu wants to kill people, he has to kill them all. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill people, then wurmanfu is likely to escape. This is wurmanfu''s intention.


    Zhang Xiu started to sneer at the corner of her mouth.


    Wurmanf''s intention, how can Zhang Xiu make him successful?


    It''s impossible.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and swept to the rest of the people. In an instant, someone had already come out and knelt on the ground with a plop. His name was Cherchen, and he was nearly forty years old and thin.


    Chechen knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, our country has never participated. In the whole matter, Qiemo did not publish a proposal or put forward a plan. This time, it was planned by urmanf, with the participation of Kang juguo''s black dog and others. In addition, there was Khotan''s helancheng, who provided the night pearl. "


    Chechnya gave up all the people who participated in the whole project. As for Chechen himself, he left it alone. After all, from beginning to end, he did not speak out or send people to participate.


    He Lancheng and others are all confused.


    It''s over!


    It was confessed.


    One by one, when they heard Cherchen''s words, they all knelt down and begged for mercy from Zhang Xiu.


    They don''t want to die.


    They have enough money to eat well, to drink well, and to live a noble life. Now, let them all die, one is not willing to, so all kowtow for mercy.

 Chapter 1225

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept this group of people, and her eyes were full of disdain.


    A mob.


    In this way, still want to recover the country, it is a fool''s dream. But it is such a group of people who unite to calculate him. Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "now that you all agree, you are participating in the plan to deal with me. The crimes of all of you are no different from those of Ulman. So you are all guilty. "


    Boom!!


    Hear one by one, as if struck by lightning.


    Everyone was confused.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s words are tantamount to convicting them.


    So everybody was scared.


    One by one constantly kowtow, constantly beg for mercy, please Zhang Xiu can understand.


    Zhang Xiu said, "shut up!"


    As soon as the words came out, everyone was quiet and didn''t speak again. A pair of eyes, and fell on the body of Zhang Xiu. The depth of the eyes, showing a look of begging for mercy, a pathetic look.


    Zhang Xiu said, "you intend to kill me. Now I can''t forgive you. But heaven has the virtue of living well, so I''ll give you a way to live. "


    "Thank you, Ron!"


    In the crowd, some people kowtow first to thank you.


    As soon as the words were said, all the leaders of the other countries responded in a flash, one by one busily thanking each other, with a look of gratitude.


    Now they are all fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board.


    Let Zhang Xiu be slaughtered.


    Now you don''t have to die. You can live. Everyone feels lucky.


    It''s worth the price.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the voice of thanks one after another, but waved her hand to stop the speaker. When the school was silent, Zhang Xiu said: "don''t hurry to thank you, because this time, not everyone can survive. I said to give you a way to live, but not to everyone. It''s up to you to seize the opportunity. "


    Urmanf felt uneasy, but also with expectations, said: "Your Majesty, please show me."


    "Your Majesty, please."


    Sun dianchen and others also spoke one after another.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "among you, there should still be about 50 people, whether more than 50 or less than 50, in a word, in this number range."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "only 20 people can get the chance I give you. You kill each other, and I will not kill the last 20 people who can survive. Even after winning the western regions according to the previous agreement, I will give you high officials and rich salaries, so that you can enjoy the glory and wealth. "


    Boom!!


    When everyone hears the words, it''s like thunder in his head.


    Everyone was confused.


    It never occurred to anyone that Zhang Xiu''s life was like this.


    It''s about letting them kill each other.


    The danger of human nature breaks out here.


    They kill each other.


    One after another, some people even look up at Zhang Xiu, no longer previous gratitude, some resentment, some anger. But even so, no one can take Zhang Xiu, because they are unarmed in front of her.


    However, some of the people in the crowd were too old to wave their weapons, so they cried out, "Your Majesty, this is not fair. We are old enough to fight. I can''t move my old arms and legs


    Many old people were immediately attached.


    It''s all a look of hope.


    They all hope that Zhang Xiu can open up the net and give them a chance to survive.


    Zhang Xiu said in a cold voice: "when you conspired to kill me, did you ever think that if you were older, you would not get involved. Now that I''m involved, I have to bear all the consequences. You''re old enough to be protected. Of course, you can die by yourself. "


    These old people are pale.


    Everyone panicked.


    In such a desperate situation, some people began to curse, all began to blame Zhang Xiu, curse Zhang Xiu not good death.


    In the face of these people''s curse, Zhang Xiu''s face was calm and said: "if it''s not my family, it will be different. I would have killed all of you in the past. None of you could have survived. That is, you have some uses, so keep you. But it''s impossible to keep all of them. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I''m not a good person to kill you. I admit that. Which King''s hand in this world is not stained with blood. Which king in the world is a good person? "


    "No, it can''t be!"


    "I am not a good man, but what about you?"


    "Are you good things?"


    "You are not good birds either. You have no position to blame me."


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "the reason why you are like this is that you fall into my hands and have no power to fight back. If you were strong, you would have invaded Daqin. Don''t sell so badly here. "After Zhang Xiu''s words, she didn''t say much. As soon as she waved her hand, a soldier threw a sword in. A clang clang clang sound came out, a pile of knives on the ground.


    However, no action has been taken.


    None of them.


    Obviously, they have some scruples at this time, so they don''t have the first one to do it.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "I only give you a quarter of an hour. In a quarter of an hour, if you haven''t finished the battle. Then, I will do it myself. OK, no more nonsense. We can start. Remember, only 20 people will survive. "


    When he had finished, he stepped aside.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t feel guilty about the fighting between the princes and nobles in the western regions.


    These people are not good people.


    On the one hand, in order to make them completely used by Zhang Xiu, they must be frightened and dare not have any thoughts. Therefore, Zhang Xiu has this fratricidal arrangement.


    On the other hand, it''s a lesson they deserve. Yesterday, Zhang Xiu said that as long as these people cooperate honestly, there will be no less glory and wealth, but they still want to calculate Zhang Xiu.


    It''s suicide.


    So now, Zhang Xiu just needs to watch quietly.


    At the beginning, no one in the crowd took action, but after a while, suddenly, someone rushed to the position of the weapon, bent down, picked up a sword and rushed to the old man nearby.


    In a flash, it was like igniting gunpowder, causing the whole situation to explode. A person rushed forward fiercely, then swung his weapon and rushed around.


    For a moment, there were all kinds of killing.


    The scene is extremely tragic.


    The shrill scream, the cry of panic, one after another.


    The whole scene was bloody.


    This kind of fighting lasted for more than half a quarter of an hour. At last, the killing stopped. One by one, the surviving people were on guard against each other, but they avoided each other and were unwilling to fight again.


    Only 18 people survived.


    Even if Zhang Xiu gave 20 places, the killing might not stop after it started, so in the end, only 18 people stayed and the rest were killed.


    Red blood, red ground.


    The bodies were laid out.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the man who survived with the knife and said slowly, "now you can throw away your weapons. I''m still an old saying. If you cooperate well, I won''t be short of your glory and wealth, and I guarantee you endless glory and wealth. "


    "Yes


    One person, quickly agreed.


    It''s been scared.


    So those who survived no longer dare to disobey Zhang Xiu''s orders.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand again to let the soldiers clean the dead bodies and the blood on the wet ground. After everything is arranged properly, Zhang Xiu turns around and leaves, without continuing to stay.

 Chapter 1226

    After dealing with the affairs of the western regions, Zhang Xiu didn''t care about these people. As for who survived and who didn''t, in fact, Zhang Xiu didn''t care much.


    The reason why Zhang Xiu left these people behind is just a gimmick. When you enter the western regions, you can take revenge for these people, attack them naturally, and master the great justice.


    That''s all.


    Besides, these people are of little use.


    When Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, she took out the maps of the western regions to the west of Dunhuang. Nowadays, the royal guards are constantly sent to various countries in the western regions to inquire about this situation, find out the local situation, and then understand the situation of Kushan, so as to attack Kushan.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t rush into the army.


    He chose to be steady.


    Only in this way can we consolidate the place we have taken down and ensure that what we have won will not be lost again.


    This is also the reason why Zhang Xiu did not move forward.


    If it''s just to attack the city and plunder the land, Zhang Xiu has already taken the attack, but this result is not what Zhang Xiu is happy to see. Every time Zhang Xiu takes down an area, he must consolidate it and make it a real territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    Of course, Dunhuang, Zhangye and other places are relatively easy.


    This is the territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    Although the local people don''t have a high sense of belonging to Daqin, at least they clearly belong to Daqin. After Zhang Xiu entered the western regions, it was not easy to bring these places into the Qin Dynasty.


    When Zhang Xiu studied maps, she saw Guo Jia enter.


    Guo Jia saluted and said, "your majesty!"


    When Zhang Xiu saw Guo Jia, she gave a little smile and waved her hand to indicate that Guo Jia would be seated: "it''s rare to be filial today. I have never played mahjong. Come to see me today, but what''s the important thing? "


    Now mahjong, also spread.


    However, Guo Jia did not play mahjong in the army. He asked some people to find a place to play mahjong in the county.


    In this way, the situation of the army will not be affected.


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "tell your majesty that I have a clear division between the public and the private. When it comes to dealing with business, I will never be vague. It is indeed an important matter to call on your majesty to make a decision. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "but it doesn''t hurt to say so!"


    Guo Jia replied, "Your Majesty, although I linger in Dunhuang and play around. However, the understanding of Dunhuang is more and more clear. I found that the governance of Dunhuang, whether in Dunhuang County itself or in Dunhuang County, depended on local clans. "


    "Local officials, in particular, are not strong in handling government affairs."


    "These people, too, lack courage."


    "Once something happens, it''s hard to make a decision because it''s constrained by the local people. Or, the big families in these places are the officials of various places. "


    Guo Jia said, "this kind of situation is not conducive to the management of the imperial court. So I think that this situation must be broken, otherwise no matter how to adjust Dunhuang, it will not help. Of course, this situation also applies to places like Jiuquan and Zhangye. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard that, her eyebrows wrinkled and her brain began to think quickly.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu asked: "since fengxiao raised this problem, how do you think it should be solved?"


    Guo Jia said: "it''s not difficult. You just need your Majesty''s order to the central government. After the Ministry of official affairs was asked to assess officials, many officials were dispatched, or newly recruited taxis were mainly arranged to come to the Liangzhou border and let the taxis govern the place. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "fengxiao''s plan is to use these new officials to break the current situation. Even, it is necessary to solve the problem of big family control. Besides, land reform is also needed, right? "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    The land reform in Qin Dynasty has been promoted early.


    At the beginning, Zhang Xiu did not send troops, and always firmly guarded the country, which was to promote land reform. To this day, the land reform of the Qin Dynasty is still effective, and the people are used to it.


    Even, people''s lives are better because of this.


    This is a visible benefit.


    However, in remote areas, such as Dunhuang and Zhangye, there was no exploration.


    It takes people to push.


    It is obviously impossible to rely on the big families in Dunhuang and Zhangye to carry out the reform.


    Zhang Xiu is not a hesitant person. She is quick to do things. After thinking about Guo Jia''s arrangement, she does not delay any more. She immediately takes out the rice paper, spreads the Paperweight, and then draws up a pen to dip in the ink. Then she quickly writes the imperial edict, so that the Ministry of officials begins to incline the arrangement of new recruits to Liangzhou, so as to ensure the safety of Liangzhou.


    When an imperial edict is written, Zhang Xiu immediately seals it up and calls Wang Yue to send the royal guards back to Chang''an as soon as possible.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, I still have a card game. Chao Neng will retire."


    When he had finished, he was ready to leave.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stop her. She waved her hand, and Guo Jia turned back.Zhang Xiu put away the brush, ink, paper and inkstone, took out the previous map again, and carefully looked at the maps of Dunhuang and the western regions. He had to carefully understand the topography and situation. In this way, in the follow-up fight, we will not be able to ask three questions and understand nothing.


    "Hoo


    The curtain of the tent was lifted, but Wang Yue entered.


    Wang Yue''s hands, carrying a plate, there are strings of crystal clear purple grapes.


    This bunch of grapes is very big.


    You look like you have a good appetite.


    Wang Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is the grape just picked. It''s a bit hot. I let people put it in the well to cool for a while. Now it''s most comfortable to eat."


    Zhang Xiu took it over, picked a grape and ate it. This grape is full and juicy. It''s very sweet. Especially after deep well freezing, the whole body seems to be in the ice spring, and it''s very comfortable.


    Zhang Xiu ate a few more grapes, wiped her hands, and praised: "not bad, not bad!"


    Wang Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty loves to eat, so I asked people to buy more. These grapes were bought by Shi a, who saw the peddler on his way back when he was working outside. Now, it''s frozen in the well water. "


    "You can buy more," Zhang said


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said, "these grapes should be sent to the generals of the army, and then to Guo Jia, Pang Tong, Xun Yu and other civil servants of the army. If not, buy more. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    He left the grapes on his plate and turned to arrange. At the moment, Wang Yue''s face was also smiling. Zhang Xiu is very satisfied with Shi A''s practice, Wang Yue is also with you Rong Yan.


    After Wang Yue went back, he called Shi''a and said that Zhang Xiu praised shi''a. finally, he told Shi''a to buy more grapes.


    Shia said, "I''m going now."


    After that, he turned and went out. However, Shi Gang came to the gate of the camp, but he was stopped by Wang Yue. Wang Yue said, "this time, the grapes must be sweet, not sour. You must try it yourself, but you can''t buy it wrong. "


    Shia bowed and said, "don''t worry, teacher. I understand."


    In fact, in Shi A''s heart, he didn''t pay much attention to the teacher Wang Yue''s instructions. The reason is very simple. This time, all the grapes are very sweet, and they are all ripe. It is impossible to have anything very sour.


    In particular, the climate of Dunhuang is different from that of the Central Plains. So the grapes produced in these places are very delicious. Even Shia can''t put it down and wants to continue to eat.


    Shi''a left the camp and drove his horse.


    He still went to the place where he had met the peddler before. Less than two quarters of an hour later, Shi a arrived at the place where he had met the peddler before. But when he went up, he saw that there were only a few clusters of grapes in the vendor''s basket, and the appearance was not very good.


    Shia got off his horse and asked, "old man, I passed by before and bought ten jin of grapes from you. The adults at home ate it and thought it was sweet and delicious. They still need to buy some. Do you have any in your family


    The grape peddler is an old man in his early fifties.


    He was dressed in coarse linen.


    He looked very old, but when he faced Shia, he had a smile on his face and said: "don''t worry, there are still many grapes in the old man''s house, and they haven''t been picked yet. They are absolutely fresh, sweet and delicious. If you need more, please follow me. If you buy more grapes, I will send them to you. "


    Shia said, "lead the way."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Hearing this, the old man was overjoyed. He shouldered the burden and led the way.

 Chapter 1227

    Shi''a looked at the old man carrying a load, walking and asking questions to learn about the local situation.


    Shia Ben has been in the crowd all the year round. He is neither superior nor aggressive. Therefore, the old man has a good impression of Shia, saying everything he knows.


    Shi a learned that the old man''s name was Xiao Youfu.


    It''s an ordinary farmer.


    He lived in Dunhuang for generations and made a living by farming.


    It''s a long way from the city to Xiao Youfu''s home. It took nearly half an hour to arrive.


    Xiao Youfu lived in a house at the foot of the mountain.


    The so-called foot of the mountain is actually a slope. The slope of the mountain is not even 30 degrees. At most, it is about 20 degrees. It''s just a little steep. Looking around, the land on the mountain is covered with grape shelves and planted grapes.


    Shi''a stopped for a while and said with emotion: "old man, is the vineyard behind your house yours?"


    "Yes, they are all from the little old man''s family!"


    Xiao Youfu nodded and answered.


    Immediately, Xiao Youfu pointed to a large area of land on the left side of the house and said, "I planted grapes here. In addition to planting corn and soybeans, most of the land is planted with grapes. "


    Shia said: "how much money do you have to earn if you plant the grapes one by one in a season?"


    "Alas..."


    Speaking of this, Xiao Youfu sighed.


    Shia asked, "old man, why do you sigh? You''ve planted countless grapes and sold them one by one. They''re all real money, but you''ve made a lot of money. "


    "Alas..."


    Xiao Youfu sighed again.


    Shi a listens to this sigh, then some curiosity, ask a way: "old man, you this one after another sigh.". Is it true that so many grapes can still lose money. I''m afraid not. "


    Xiao Youfu heard the speech, no longer hide, then said the current predicament.


    In fact, the grapes Xiao Youfu planted were not planted by his family. In Dunhuang County, there are countless people planting. The reason why they planted grapes on a large scale was that the Chen family, a big ethnic group in Dunhuang County, needed a lot of grapes every year and bought them in batches, so countless people could earn money by selling grapes.


    This has been going on for two years.


    This is the third year.


    It''s also the third year of grape fruit.


    In particular, a lot of land is rented by many farmers, and they have to pay free rent every year.


    Originally, the people were not worried.


    But this year, news suddenly came out that the grapes needed by the Chen family were sharply reduced, and it was impossible to buy all the grapes as in previous years. When such a news came out, it completely alarmed the people.


    Unlike soybeans, grapes can be stored for a long time. Once these grapes are not eaten and sold in time, they will all rot, which many people can''t bear.


    So many people began to carry the burden of selling grapes themselves.


    Even the price is much lower than in previous years.


    In fact, it''s not easy to manage the grapes. We need to apply fertilizer and so on. Once the price falls too low, the people can''t make any money, especially if there are too many grapes, which leads to the price falling again and again.


    After hearing this, Shi a understood it and asked, "old man, I''ll ask you a lot. In the past, the Chen family had to buy all of them, and then sell them through the Chen family''s channels. But this year, why didn''t the Chens buy all of them? "


    Xiao Youfu said: "this involves another matter."


    Shia said: "you always talk about it."


    Xiao Youfu thought that Shi a wanted to buy grapes, and the news was no secret, so when he took Shi a to the field, he said: "when the Chen family was in charge last year, it was Mr. Chen."


    "The old man is kind-hearted and considerate of US farmers."


    "Last year, the year before last, all of them were acquired."


    "The purchase price is also fair."


    "Well, it''s a pity that good people don''t live long. The old man passed his 70th birthday last year and died at the end of the year. Since then, the Chen family has been the eldest son of the old master, master Chen Yin


    Xiao Youfu sighed: "after master Chen Yin took charge of the family, his attitude was different. This year''s Chen family, not only the number of acquisitions to weaken, but also the price than in previous years, a little lower than half


    "Ah


    Shi ah can''t help exclaiming when he hears it.


    This year''s purchase price is more than half lower than that of last year, which is simply surprising.


    Shia asked, "what''s the price you sold me before?"


    Xiao Youfu explained: "because of the purchase price of the Chen family, many people picked grapes and sold them. So the price I sold to you before was only half that of last year. That''s why you thought it was so cheap when you bought it before. "


    "It''s really cheap."


    Shi ah sighed: "I didn''t expect that there were such twists and turns in it."Xiao Youfu said: "in previous years, life was better. After all, after giving the land rent and other expenses, you can still make a lot of money by selling all the grapes. But this year, it will be a big loss. Anyway, if you can sell some, you can reduce the loss as much as possible. "


    As a member of the royal guards, Shi a, in addition to his official position, can''t stand the fact that the Chen family oppresses the people. What is the ability of a man with a great family and a great career to squeeze ordinary people.


    Shia said: "old man, I''ll take care of this for you."


    Xiao Youfu shook his head and said, "no, No. It''s very good that you can buy grapes, let you buy all my grapes, even worse. You can''t eat up so many grapes, but it can''t hurt you. "


    Shi ah laughs and explains: "I''m wrong. I''ll help you with the grape sales and the people in Dunhuang county. It''s up to me. "


    "Seriously?"


    Xiao Youfu rubbed his face in disbelief.


    Immediately, Xiao Youfu said: "young master, don''t go through this muddy water. Chen family is a big family in Dunhuang. They have a lot of contacts and influence. If you want to join in, you may set yourself on fire. I appreciate your kindness. But don''t get involved in this matter. For your kindness, this batch of grapes is for you


    Xiao Youfu is also a kind-hearted man.


    He was grateful for Shi A''s help, but he didn''t want Shi a to get involved, because Shi a was easily affected.


    Shia said: "old man, don''t worry about my safety. It''s just the Chen family, but I can''t help it. It''s all right. I''ll tell you more, but you don''t understand. You old now, pick grapes for me. Wait a minute. Bring me the grapes. By the way, let''s solve the problem of grape selling. "


    Xiao Youfu opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but when the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them back.


    In fact, there is a little hope in his heart.


    Looking forward to solving the problem.


    After all, his family planted so many grapes that it would be a pity if they all rotted. Moreover, the family''s livelihood was concentrated on the grapes, and the family could not afford such a big loss.


    Xiao Youfu doesn''t talk much any more. While picking grapes, he thinks that he will wait until he delivers them.

 Chapter 1228

    Xiao Youfu is a simple man. Seeing that Shi a is so generous, especially now that the grapes are cheap and can''t afford to sell, he simply picked two baskets and gave them to Shi a without any money.


    Shi a wants to give money, but Xiao Youfu doesn''t accept it at all.


    In the end, shiagan no longer insisted.


    Shi a takes Xiao Youfu and goes to the barracks. Along the way, Xiao Youfu happened to know the location of the barracks because he was close to the direction of the barracks. Moreover, the barracks were remote and there were no streets. When he was carrying the burden, he could not help asking, "are you from the army, young man?"


    "Yes


    Shia nodded.


    Xiao Youfu said, "is your son a general in the army?"


    Shi ah nodded again and said, "I''m a general in the army, but I''m not responsible for fighting in the battlefield. Well, father-in-law, you don''t have to worry about it. Just rest assured. I''ll arrange the next thing for you. "


    "Thank you, general!"


    Xiao Youfu spoke quickly.


    At this moment, Xiao Youfu''s heart is really raised expectations.


    If Shi a is an ordinary person, because of the power of the Chen family, Shi a Ken will not be defeated. But now, Shi a is not an ordinary person, but a general in the army. He is far more powerful than the Chen family. It''s easy to deal with the Chen family.


    This makes Xiao Youfu see the opportunity.


    The speed of their journey was not fast. After all, Xiao Youfu was carrying the burden.


    Shi a sees this, can''t bear Xiao Youfu an old man to carry a burden, insist to dismount to take over. Xiao Youfu is stubborn, but in the end, it''s worth handing the burden to Shi a, but Shi a is not a burden bearer, but a burden bearer.


    At first, I was able to stick to it.


    After a while, he could not hold on and walked with a bump.


    Even Shia himself, it''s hard.


    Xiao Youfu wants to take over the burden, but Shi a refuses again. When he finally passes the village, he finds a unicycle and pushes two baskets of grapes on the unicycle, which makes it easier. As soon as he got back to the barracks, Shi a called for the soldiers to push two baskets of grapes to wash them. He took Xiao Youfu and went straight to Zhang Xiu''s army tent.


    When he came outside the camp, Shi Aoen told Xiao Youfu to wait, just like in the camp.


    Shi a met Zhang Xiu and after a salute, he reported: "Your Majesty, I have bought back two baskets of grapes, which are big and sweet. Now, it''s for the soldiers to ice. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "since we have bought more, we should take out another part and send it to the civilian and military generals in the army. Let the people in the army have a taste. "


    "Here it is


    Shi Yingxia.


    However, he is a pair of words and stop, this is intentional.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "if you have something to say, you don''t have to stammer."


    Shi a heard Zhang Xiu''s words, and with a plop, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the ground with his head: "please your majesty, make the decision for all the people in Dunhuang county."


    Zhang Xiu was very surprised.


    Shi a just went out once. How could he be the master of the people.


    In particular, the royal guards where Shi a is located can deal with corrupt officials, punish evil and promote good, and have great power. If Shi Azhen encounters injustice, he can deal with it directly.


    Zhang Xiu shook his sleeve robe and said, "if something happens, it doesn''t matter."


    Shi a immediately talked about Xiao Youfu and other people planting grapes in Dunhuang county. He also talked about the changes of the Chen family and the fact that Chen Yin, the leader of the Chen family, wantonly suppressed the price of grapes.


    Finally, Shi zhengse said: "as for Chen Yin''s no longer purchasing so many grapes, Chen Yin has never broken the law, and Chen Yin has never made a treaty. So if we really want to target Chen Yin, there''s no way. Therefore, your majesty, please make the decision for the thousands of people in Dunhuang county. Once this season is over, I''m afraid all the grapes will rot and countless people will be affected by it. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu turned her mind.


    When it comes to grapes, it''s not particularly difficult to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu suddenly said: "this matter, you will pass on the order, and release the news that my barracks needs to purchase grapes according to the normal market price. You don''t have to worry about the rest. "


    "Ah


    Shi a hears after, exclaim.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s solution is not a good one.


    Shia said: "Your Majesty, although we release the news, if we do not purchase. In the end, I am afraid there is no way to solve the problem of the people. Of course, even if Chen Yin worried about his Majesty''s raising the price this year and purchasing grapes at the real market price, what would these people do next year without the protection of the emperor? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "unexpectedly, Shi a also knows how to settle accounts. You can rest assured, I said, this is normal purchase, that will purchase. I''ll buy as many people as I have. "


    Shia said: "but with so many purchases, can we use them up?"


    Zhang Xiu replied, "I have my own plan."After hearing this, Shi a stopped talking and said, "Your Majesty, Xiao Youfu is the old man who brought the grapes. It''s just outside the camp. I wonder if your majesty will meet him? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "bring it in!"


    "Here it is


    Starling, let me know right away.


    When Xiao Youfu entered the camp, he heard Shi a say that the person he was going to meet was the emperor. At this moment, Xiao Youfu''s brain is a little dizzy. He just feels that his legs are weak and almost can''t stand.


    He had never seen the emperor in his life, so he was very worried.


    After Xiao Youfu entered, with a plop, he was already his whole body. He fell down on the ground and saluted with five bodies: "Xiao Youfu, grasshopper, meet your majesty. Your majesty will live forever."


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said, "get up and talk."


    "Thank you


    Xiao Youfu said thanks and stood up with his hands on the ground. But the problem is that when he put his hand on the ground, he had to stand up slightly, but he was weak and fell to the ground with a plop.


    He is really a little dizzy.


    After all, I haven''t seen the emperor.


    Now suddenly saw Zhang Xiu, the whole person is like flying clouds, especially empty.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Shi a helped Xiao Youfu up. Zhang Xiu said slowly, "Xiao Youfu, I already know about you and the thousands of grape growers in Dunhuang county. You can rest assured that I will settle the matter. In addition, I also hope that you can go back and tell some people you know so that they don''t have to rush to sell at a low price. I will take care of everything. "


    "Thank you, thank you, Ron."


    Xiao Youfu quickly thanks again. At this moment, Xiao Youfu is very happy. Because of Shi A''s recommendation, the biggest problem of Dunhuang county was solved.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She waved her hand and Shi a took Xiao Youfu out of the camp.


    Shia said, "old man, you can go back. Wait for the news. In just one or two days, there will be news. The price of all grapes will go up. "


    "Thank you, general."


    Xiao Youfu closed his hands and looked grateful. He is very reluctant to leave, more grateful to Zhang Xiu, so this step three back, after a long time, already can''t see the real camp, Xiao Youfu just quickly walk, want to return to the residence earlier.

 Chapter 1229

    Chenjia of Dunhuang county is located in the south of the county.


    The house covers an area of nearly 200 mu. It is broad, thick and simple, and dignified.


    In Dunhuang County, even if the magistrate of Dunhuang met the head of Chen''s family, he had to be respectful. Because in Dunhuang and other border areas, officials are frequently transferred and changed, and there is also the saying that the Chen family is iron and the county magistrate is running water.


    So to some extent, the Chen family is like the emperor of Dunhuang. Any disturbance in the Chen family will cause unrest in the whole Dunhuang County, such as the acquisition of grapes this time.


    The Chen family did not make it clear.


    However, just a little bit of news has caused great turbulence.


    Chen family, in the hall.


    But just above the hall, there was a man, about forty years old, thin and with cold eyes, who felt more aggressive. In particular, the thin and thin lips, is to give people a mean and ungrateful feeling.


    This person is Chen Yin.


    He is not only the master of the Chen family, but also the eldest son of the Chen family.


    He is now a member of the Chen family.


    Below Chen Yin are two middle-aged people.


    Both of them are full of fat intestines. They are very fat and have big stomachs. They are very greasy.


    One of them is Guan Zuo, the other is Li Ning.


    Chen Yin''s brother-in-law.


    Guan Zuo is the younger brother of Chen Yinzheng''s wife, and Li Ning is the younger brother of Chen Yin''s concubine.


    Both of them rely on Chen Yin, so they can have a foothold.


    Guan Zuo was obsequious and said, "brother, I''ve heard about it. Now all the grapes planted by the farmers in Dunhuang County, because of your words, the grapes can''t be sold, and they all begin to sell the grapes cheaply on their own. Nowadays, the price of grapes is getting lower and lower day by day. These damned common people are beaten by you. "


    Li Ning agreed and said, "brother Guan is right. In the past, when the old man was alive, these unsatisfied people often acted as demons. They thought that the price was low and they wanted to raise it. It''s really damned."


    Two people sing in unison, very belittle the people.


    They all live by sucking the blood of the people. If they don''t let the people suffer, they will suffer.


    Chen Yin stroked his beard and said, "the rules that my father used to set are going to change. Our Chen family is a businessman, not a charity. The rules of Dunhuang county have changed since this year. "


    Guan Zuo said, "you should be like this!"


    Two people a word of praise, is very happy.


    When talking about when to start large-scale acquisition, Chen Yin said: "now this grape can not be put on hold for long. Once it''s on the vine, if it''s too long, it''s too ripe. We can''t wait until then. Now, try to collect some of the grapes. Both of you, make arrangements and charge some at a low price. "


    When it comes to business, Guan Zuo''s eyes were shining. He leaned forward and said, "brother, what if after we lower the price again, the people don''t buy it and don''t want to sell it?"


    Chen Yinchen said in a voice: "if you don''t agree with me again, I''ll let you know that we won''t accept grapes this year. These damned untouchables, a bunch of dogs, don''t clean up. "


    Guan Zuo thumbed up and said, "brother, you have courage!"


    Li Ning also agreed.


    After chatting with Chen Yin, they left the Chen family and were busy buying grapes. However, when Guan Zuo and Li Ning were preparing to buy grapes, because of the spread of news from the royal guards, the people in Dunhuang county began to know how many grapes the imperial court wanted to buy, and how much they bought. Moreover, the price the imperial court bought was the normal market price, not the current price.


    At one time, there was a lot of discussion.


    The people are grateful, especially with Xiao Youfu''s message, which has spread from ten to 100. Many people are even more grateful to Zhang Xiu when they know about it.


    It was this news that made the whole fruit farmers of Dunhuang County feel at ease. The grape growers who originally planned to sell grapes cheaply are no longer selling grapes cheaply.


    In this business, we always buy up but not down. When the price is very low, even when it goes down again and again, there are very few people who want to buy it. They all wait and see, waiting for the price to go down again. Now, as the price of grapes rises, especially when it is said that the imperial court wants to buy grapes in large quantities, countless people begin to buy grapes.


    Even if the price of grapes goes up, there are a lot of people buying them.


    As a result, many fruit growers sell their grapes one after another.


    As a result, when Guan Zuo and Li Ning went out to buy grapes, they couldn''t lower the price at all. Even when they lowered the price, the people didn''t pay at all. They didn''t pay attention to the officials and Li Ning.


    So much so that I didn''t buy a kilo of grapes.


    When the news comes back to Guan Zuo and Li Ning, they are both shocked and angry, but they are worried. After all, it is the imperial court, the son of heaven, who is now fighting against them. If they are against the emperor, they will seek death.


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning dare not delay and go to Chen''s house. Entering the Chen family, Guan Zuo and Li Ning quickly talked about the current situation and looked worried.Even Chen Yin frowned when he heard the speech.


    It''s not easy to do.


    After all, it is the imperial court and the emperor in the court that are involved. In front of the court, the Chen family is just like a mole ant. As long as the emperor reaches out a finger, it will be enough to crush the Chen family and destroy it completely.


    Guan Zuo asked, "brother, what can we do?"


    Li Ning said: "yes, it''s not easy to deal with. Please give me an idea. If we buy according to the current market price, especially if the price rises again and again, it will be more difficult to buy grapes. It''s not easy to buy grapes and sell them. "


    Chen Yin''s eyes turned and his face looked thoughtful.


    It''s not easy.


    But the problem is that Chen Yin is not reconciled, because once he agrees, this year his plan will be over.


    Chen Yin continued: "it can''t be done like this. Even if the imperial court is powerful and powerful, the problem is that the imperial court can''t eat so many grapes. We have an ice cellar. We can hoard it. Even, we have enough channels to deliver goods and sell them in a short time. "


    "But the court can''t do it."


    "We Chen family, in particular, are local people. It''s not easy for these people to get rid of our Chen family. "


    Chen Yin said, "so this time, I''m going to have a fight with the imperial court to see who is more skillful. This time, it is impossible for the imperial court to disturb our plan. "


    "Elder brother an Ji comes out


    Li Ning said: "brother, just say what you should do now. As long as this year''s grape business is done, our Chen family will have another bumper harvest this year. "


    Chen Yin did not hide, and immediately said the detailed plan.


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning after listening, a look of praise, is repeatedly good.


    Ginger is really hot.


    Chen Yin''s plan is indeed the most appropriate one.


    They left the Chen family and arranged things without delay. They are also full of expectations, but they want to see how these shallow eyed people will choose to do it.

 Chapter 1230

    Inside the camp, the Chinese army has a big account.


    When Zhang Xiu was dealing with government affairs, she was surprised to see Pang Tong coming.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s notice.


    Pang Tong asked, "Your Majesty is calling me to see you. I don''t know why?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the grape business."


    Pang Tong''s face was solemn, and he said, "now that I''m talking about grapes, I have to say something. Outside, there is a rumor that the imperial court wants to buy grapes in large quantities. How many do they buy. May I ask your majesty, is that so? "


    In fact, Pang Tong already inquired, but he still had to ask Zhang Xiu carefully.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it is true."


    Pang Tong was in a hurry and said, "emperor, countless people in Dunhuang county have planted countless grapes. We don''t operate at all, let alone have so many channels. "


    "Where to sell all the grapes? I can''t. It''s too wasteful to throw all the grapes to the soldiers for free. Your majesty, you are for the people of Dunhuang County, and you will not waste money like this. "


    "In particular, you have handled the matter well this year, but your majesty will not be in Dunhuang next year. At that time, how to help the people? It''s better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. If we don''t solve the problem thoroughly, we will treat the symptoms rather than the root cause. "


    Pang Tong said, "please think twice."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this matter, I have my own consideration. That''s why I called you


    Pang Tong''s eyebrows rose, a little unexpected.


    However, Pang Tong knew Zhang Xiu well, and he always did not fight unprepared battles. Now that he had an idea, there must be a solution, so he pressed down his anxious mood and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "when it comes to the grapes planted by the people in Dunhuang County, I have three things to do."


    Pang Tong said, "I''m all ears!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, all the grapes bought back will not be wasted. As soon as the grapes are bought back, they will be put in the camp to be exposed to the sun. All the grapes will be dried and stored


    "Ah


    When Pang Tong heard this, he exclaimed.


    Raisins?


    Pang Tong had eaten grapes. He also knew that grapes were delicious and sweet. However, this is the first time he has heard of raisins. He has never heard of such operation.


    It''s weird.


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, this is not a broken pot."


    Zhang Xiu smile, not anxious not impatient way: "Shiyuan, you follow me for so many years, think I will break pot break? In other words, you don''t believe my arrangement. "


    "Of course not!"


    Pang Tong shook his head.


    But he believed in Zhang Xiu very much, because Zhang Xiu''s arrangement had never been missed.


    Zhang Xiu said: "since I believe it, I will. I tell you, this raisin is a rare fruit, although it has less sweet juice. And the sale of raisins is also unaffected. "


    After thinking about it, Pang Tong said without saying much: "Your Majesty, what are you going to do in your second aspect?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the second thing I want to do is to find someone to set up a shop to buy and sell grapes. Since this year, we have been buying grapes everywhere in Liangzhou for commercial operation. "


    "That''s why I called you."


    "You can find someone who is reliable and knows how to do business, who is responsible for it."


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "to do this is to teach people to fish, with the operation of the imperial court. Even if the Chen family is in a dilemma, there is no way. Even the Chen family does not dare to be a demon. "


    Pang Tong''s eyes were full of splendor.


    Wonderful!


    How wonderful!


    With the special shops for buying and selling grapes, the raisins can be transported to the Central Plains for sale with the help of the transportation capacity of the imperial court, and numerous profits can be made.


    This is a wonderful move.


    At this time, Pang Tong felt at ease and asked, "Your Majesty, what''s the third thing you arranged?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I don''t know the specific situation of the Chen family. However, since the Chen family has made such a price reduction and intended to harm the people, it can be seen that it is not a good family. "


    "Of course, because the Chen family had never signed a contract with the people before, there was no way to blame the Chen family for not buying grapes. So now, we have to pay attention to the actions of the Chen family, and don''t go wrong. "


    "If the Chen family doesn''t cooperate, then next, we have to deal with the Chen family."


    Zhang Xiu said: "so the third thing is that you have to stare at the Chen family. When it comes to the affairs of thousands of people in Dunhuang County, we should not be careless, otherwise it will be the people who will suffer the ultimate loss. "


    Pang Tong arched his hand and said, "please rest assured. I understand."


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    Pang Tong is now at ease in his heart.After he left in a hurry, he immediately went to arrange things. Pang Tong selected a scholar from the army. His name was Pang Xiu, a distant relative of the Pang family.


    Pang Xiu once wanted to take part in the imperial examination. The problem is that he tried again and again, and finally he just worked with Pang Tong. Now when it comes to grapes, Pang Tong asked Pang Xiu to deal with it.


    Pang Xiu is not worried about this.


    He represents the court.


    In particular, he also gave the market price according to Pang Tong''s orders, which has already given enough sweetness to the people.


    It''s a very easy thing to do.


    So Pang Xiu thinks that this is just a passing experience. But the problem is that when Pang Xiu and others were ready to buy grapes, they met with a nail in the face. All the old farmers who were going to sell grapes changed their mind and stopped selling them. Even though Pang Xiu said that what he gave was the market price and high price, the people still refused one by one, and no one was willing to sell grapes to Pang Xiu.


    This matter, however, baffled Pang Xiu.


    He also asked why, but the people never told the truth.


    So much so that Pontius never made any progress.


    Pang Xiu couldn''t deal with it by himself, so he had to come to Pang Tong''s side. After bowing and saluting, he said, "brother, the purchase of grapes can''t go on."


    Pang Tong raised his eyebrows, looked surprised, and said, "Pang Xiu, how do you do things. You didn''t do such a simple thing well. "


    In fact, I can''t blame you for that. After all, it''s not that I don''t buy. But when I bought it at the market price, the people refused to sell the grapes. "


    "I also asked them if it was because the price of grapes was not high enough. They said no, it was already very good. But the problem is that all of us don''t let go and don''t want to sell grapes. "


    "You see, I can''t help it either."


    "That''s why I came to ask my elder brother for help."


    Pang Xiu was helpless. It was not that he didn''t want to do it, but that he couldn''t do it.


    "You are so rotten that you can''t get on the wall." Pang Tong listened to Pang Xiu''s words and said in a deep voice: "if you encounter something, won''t you go to inquire about it and get to know the local situation. Since the people do not sell grapes, why do they not sell grapes? There must be a reason for this. "


    Pang Xiu''s eyes brightened and said, "elder brother, I''m going to inquire. When you get the information, you can report it to your elder brother. Please make up your mind. "


    "You, you..."


    Pang Tong sighed and said, "it''s just, it''s just, you''re suitable to be a petty official. It''s hard for you to do these things. This time, I''ll do it myself. "


    "Good!"


    Pang Xiu didn''t get angry when he heard it, so he responded directly.


    Anyway, he felt very tired.

 Chapter 1231

    Pang Tong thought about it in his heart, and soon he had a plan in his heart, so he ordered: "you go to see Shi a, and say I have something to ask him here, and ask him to come sometime."


    "Here it is


    Pang Xiude order, go to inform immediately.


    After a while, Shi a came in a hurry. When he saw Pang Tong, with a smile on his face, he bowed and said, "I''ve met a huge man. I don''t know if you want to see me. What can I do for you?"


    Pang Tong is now with the army, but Pang Tong''s identity, which is also a cabinet minister, is much higher than Shi a, so Shi a salutes as soon as he sees Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "sit down!"


    After Shi a sat down, he said, "I''m invited by a huge man. I don''t know. What''s the matter?"


    Pang Tong didn''t beat around the Bush, so he said, "Mr. Shi, the reason why I invited you here is related to the fruit farmers. Now the people in Dunhuang county have suddenly changed their routine and stopped selling grapes. "


    "Even at a high price."


    "All in all, it''s weird."


    "I thought, there must be something fishy in it. But if you don''t know anyone, it''s no use visiting. After all, since these people are determined not to sell grapes, they must be very tight lipped and can''t get information. "


    Pang Tong spoke with a soft voice and said, "it happened that in the past, it was you who went to buy grapes. It was also you who learned about the difficulties of people planting grapes. Your majesty also met Xiao Youfu in person."


    "I mean, please show me the way and take me to Xiao Youfu''s home to visit him in person. If I go alone, the old people may not believe me. "


    "It''s not the same when you''re here."


    "So I hope Lord Smith will follow me."


    Pang Tong stood up, folded his hands, bowed to Shi a, and said, "please, Mr. Shi."


    Shi a immediately arched back.


    He didn''t dare to accept Pang Tong''s great gift. He knew that Pang Tong''s identity was far more noble than him. Moreover, when it comes to matters involving the people, Shi a is willing to go, because this matter started because of him.


    Shi a said with a straight face: "you''re a big man, you''ve turned me down. Shia is duty bound in this matter. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "thank you very much."


    Shi ah said: "it''s better to hit the sun than choose the day. How about we start now?"


    Pang Tong said, "that''s what I mean."


    Shi a immediately arranged for a carriage to go to Xiao Youfu''s home with Pang Tong. When he arrived, there was no one in Xiao Youfu''s house, and the door was closed.


    Shi a said: "this period of time, belongs to the very busy season, perhaps the old man went out. If you want to visit Xiao Youfu, you have to wait a little longer. "


    Pang Tong said: "no harm, just wait a moment."


    They chatted and talked about the grapes, but they didn''t realize the passage of time.


    Half an hour is fleeting.


    At this time, Xiao Youfu came back with the burden. But in his burden, there are half a basket of grapes. Although Xiao Youfu has never sold grapes to the government, he is also retailing and selling some of them to subsidize his family.


    Shi ah went up and said, "old man, I''m Shi ah. I''m here again."


    Xiao Youfu saluted in a hurry. He was very respectful.


    But Xiao Youfu''s face was a look of shame. Because Shi''a helped all the farmers and even urged the court to buy grapes, but they refused. Xiao Youfu felt guilty about this.


    Shi a pointed to Pang Tong and said, "old man, this is Pang Tong''s great man. He is an official of the Qin Dynasty. He is highly respected by his majesty. Now, he''s coming to visit and learn something. "


    Xiao Youfu immediately saluted again.


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "father-in-law, can I have a talk in hospital?"


    "Please, please!"


    Xiao Youfu rushed forward, opened the door of the courtyard, and took Pang Tong and Shi''a to enter. But after sitting down, Xiao Youfu was very formal, because the two people sitting next to him had status and status.


    Pang Tong said: "father-in-law, this time I''m here, I just want to know something about it. The imperial court specially arranged Pang Xiu to be responsible for the purchase of grapes. The price given by the imperial court is the market price, which is slightly higher. Such a price does not harm the fruit farmers. But why does everyone refuse? "


    Xiao Youfu is quite embarrassed, a pair of words and stop.


    He felt guilty.


    The problem is, he can''t say either.


    Because they had been ordered before, and someone said hello to them, they could not disclose the information. Otherwise, in the end, it''s not just that the grapes can''t be sold, it''s likely that the family will be ruined.


    Pang Tong was so clever that when he saw Xiao Youfu''s appearance, he knew he had something inside. He was not worried. He said with a straight face, "Xiao Youfu, this time for the sake of grapes, is Shi a busy introduction. So much so that his majesty himself gave the order. You have also met your majesty. Your majesty has specially ordered to deal with it for your livelihood. "


    "Your Majesty, Ron, for your sake.""But now, you are not willing to accept your Majesty''s kindness. Even your majesty is dedicated to you. On the other hand, you have to embarrass your majesty and make his edict impossible to implement. "


    Pang Tong spoke in a heavy tone.


    When Xiao Youfu heard this, he was even more embarrassed. He was an ordinary people, who could not stand such a threat, so he was in a panic.


    Shi a wanted to speak, but Pang Tong stopped him with his eyes. Pang Tong continued: "father-in-law, I know you have reasons to say. But in fact, the imperial court has got some information, but you need to confirm it yourself. "


    Shia wanted to laugh.


    Pang Tong is lying all over the world. What does it mean to have a certain amount of information.


    In fact, there''s no message.


    Of course, Shi can''t tear Pang Tong down, because what he wants to do now is to investigate clearly, so as to make a response, and then bring the people behind the scenes to justice.


    At this moment, Xiao Youfu is also a little loose, a pair of words and stop.


    Pang Tong once again said, "father-in-law, let me say something impolite. Although you have been threatened to some extent, have you ever considered that there can be a greater official and a stronger force in this world than your majesty? "


    "Certainly not."


    "If you have grievances, your majesty will declare them for you."


    "You have difficulties, your majesty will solve them for you."


    "If you have ideas, your majesty will listen to them."


    Pang Tong tossed the ground and said: "Your Majesty is an eternal saint. He is committed to making the people live a good life. So when I learned that your grapes could not be sold, which would cause detention, I immediately arranged for someone to buy them. Father in law, your majesty is full of blood. And you should also believe that your majesty will be able to solve even the greatest difficulties for you. "


    When Xiao Youfu heard this, he burst into tears and choked up. He stood up directly, knelt down on the ground and said, "giant man, it''s the little old man''s heart that has been gnawed by the dog. He doesn''t care about his Majesty''s kindness."


    Pang Tong helped Xiao Youfu up and said, "Your Majesty won''t care about this, because your majesty is still concerned about your livelihood, so let me investigate. Come on, what''s going on? "


    After Xiao Youfu heard this, he no longer concealed it and immediately explained the reason.


    The reason is not complicated.


    It was Guan Zuo and Li Ning who represented pondering. They personally visited many grape farmers and said that the emperor could not have been in Dunhuang all the time. They came here this year and left soon.


    Even if the emperor helped the fruit growers this year, he could not help them next year. At that time, the fruit growers had to ask for and rely on the Chen family. If the fruit growers want to continue planting, they can''t sell grapes and have to follow the Chen family''s arrangement.


    Just like this, the fruit growers changed the direction of the wind.


    None of them sell grapes.


    Because they can''t afford to offend the Chen family, after all, it''s better for the county magistrate to be in charge now. The Chen family is a local snake, and countless Dunhuang people have to rely on the Chen family, so they all choose to keep silent and stop selling grapes.


    After Pang Tong heard this, he had a judgment in his heart, but his eyes were cold.


    Previously, there was no way to deal with the Chen family.


    After all, the Chen family doesn''t buy grapes, and no one can blame Chen Yin. But now, the Chen family has arranged for people to threaten the people and control the price of grapes wantonly, which has already touched the law.

 Chapter 1232

    After Pang Tong heard this, he laughed in his heart and said, "old man, you don''t have to worry about your worries. I know that the reason why you and the rest of the fruit growers are afraid to sell grapes is because the Chen family has threatened us. They are worried that if we harvest grapes this year, we will not harvest grapes next year. They are also worried that if we harvest grapes, there is no place to sell them, right


    "Yes, it is."


    Xiao Youfu nodded: "Your Majesty is kind to us, but we can''t let him suffer. This man has to have a good conscience. He can''t do without his majesty. What''s more, the Chen family must be local. Next year we will have to rely on the Chen family. Now, if you have a little loss, you should have a little loss. It''s a blessing to have a little loss. As long as we get through it, next year will be better. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "you don''t have to worry about two things."


    Xiao Youfu said, "why?"


    Pang Tong said: "the reason is very simple. The grapes purchased in large quantities by the imperial court will be dried and stored. In this way, even if it is a large number of acquisitions, it will not affect the market. "


    Xiao Youfu raised his eyebrows and said, "giant, the imperial court is going to sun all the grapes into raisins. This can be stored in our family. The problem is that few people buy it, and many people don''t like it. When the raisins are sold at a high price, there is no room for you to buy them at all! "


    Pang Tong said, "father-in-law, could you give me some of your raisins for me to taste?"


    "No problem!"


    Xiao Youfu responded immediately.


    Immediately, he went into the room, filled a bowl with a bowl, put it on the stone table in the yard, and said, "great man, Mr. Shi, you two have a taste."


    In fact, there are raisins now.


    After all, the weather in Dunhuang is suitable for drying raisins, which can be finished in a short time.


    It''s just that few people eat it.


    After all, local people are not uncommon, so there is no channel and audience to sell.


    After Pang Tong ate a raisin, his brow trembled, but his face looked joyful. He said, "although the raisin is not as sweet and juicy as the fresh grape, it has a different flavor. It''s good, it''s good!"


    Shia also nodded in agreement.


    Pang Tong once again said, "father-in-law, you don''t have to worry about the sale of raisins. After all the raisins were made, they were not sold in Dunhuang, but transported to the Central Plains and sold in the Central Plains. This item is rare. Because there are too many and too common in Dunhuang, no one is surprised. But in the Central Plains, it''s different. "


    Xiao Youfu said: "really?"


    "Nature is true."


    Pang Tong had a smile on his face with a determined look.


    He didn''t have much hope for raisins, just because he believed in Zhang Xiu, so he believed in Zhang Xiu''s judgment. Now, having tasted the taste of raisins himself, he believes that the raisins will sell well after being transported to the Central Plains.


    Xiao Youfu said: "but this year, the imperial court has accepted raisins. Next year, what should we do?"


    Pang Tong said, "you don''t have to worry about this. Your majesty has specially arranged for people to set up shops in Dunhuang. This year, he will buy grapes. Next year, the year after next, he will still buy grapes. Whether it is fresh grapes, or raisins, etc., will be a large number of acquisitions. So there''s no need for you to worry. "


    After hearing this, Xiao Youfu felt relieved. He stood up and knelt down again and said, "thank you very much for your kindness. Luo Youfu is very grateful."


    Pang Tong helped Xiao Youfu up and said, "you don''t have to do that, father-in-law. You don''t have to thank me. After all, I am a runner, I just carry out your Majesty''s arrangement. The one you want to thank is your majesty. "


    "Yes, yes, we must set up a ancestral temple for your majesty and pray for your majesty every day."


    Xiao Youfu kept on answering.


    Now he is already happy.


    Before that, Shi a took him to see Zhang Xiu and learned that the imperial court was going to buy grapes. Luo Youfu was very happy and prepared to sell grapes. But it didn''t last long. In the twinkling of an eye, the Chen family arranged for someone to release news that whoever sold the grapes to the imperial court would be against the Chen family, and there would be bitter consequences in the future.


    As a result, people in Dunhuang County, such as Xiao Youfu, were as cold as if they had fallen into an abyss.


    Now it''s finally good.


    The imperial court finally made a move.


    Pang Tong''s face was calm, and he continued: "father-in-law, although you are not worried. However, some people must think that the Chen family is still there, and they dare not disobey their orders or act rashly. You tell them that they don''t have to worry about the Chen family. Now the court will deal with the Chen family. In Dunhuang County, the Chen family will not be able to dance for a few days. "


    If it wasn''t for the Chen family threatening the people, if it wasn''t for the Chen family controlling the price of grapes, Pang Tong didn''t have the heart to deal with the Chen family.


    After all, there is nothing wrong with the Chen family.


    But now, Pang Tong directly gave the people a message, telling everyone to know the determination of the imperial court.


    Luo Youfu said solemnly: "please don''t worry, Mr. Pang. I will spread the news. Now thousands of grape growers have no backbone. Now, with a huge number of people, we finally have the backbone. "Pang Tong said: "that''s it. Next, someone will buy grapes. The grapes in your hands are sold on a large scale. After I go back, I will prepare to deal with the Chen family. If the Chen family is not removed for a day, the people will be in trouble for a day. "


    Luo Youfu nodded busily, and he was very happy. At this moment, Luo Youfu''s wrinkled face was full of joy instead of worry.


    Because there is hope again.


    Life has hope again.


    After Pang Tong left with Shi a, Shi a sat in the carriage and asked, "since you want to deal with the Chen family. Now, what are you going to do? "


    Pang Tong''s eyes narrowed and said: "naturally, it''s the royal guards who come to inquire about the news. Please arrange the royal guards to check the information of Chen''s family immediately after Mr. Shi goes back. Next, I will ask your majesty to personally go to master Chen Jiaxing to ask for a crime. "


    "I see," said Shia


    They chatted all the way. When they got back to the barracks, Shi a arranged to investigate the Chen family. Pang Tong arranged Pang Xiu to buy grapes in large quantities again immediately.


    After telling Pang Xiu what to deal with, Pang Tong went straight to the central army.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong reported the whole story.


    After all that, Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, the Chen family is obviously threatening the people. There is no need for such a Chen family to stay. Chen family''s crime, I asked the Royal Guard Shi''a to investigate. It is expected that at most one more day will be enough time to investigate the matter. I implore that once the matter is investigated clearly, your majesty will come out in person and ask for a crime, and then deal with the Chen family. "


    "Sure!"


    Zhang Xiu''s concise answer.


    In fact, the disposal of the Chen family is also conducive to Zhang Xiu''s establishing prestige and winning the hearts of the people in Dunhuang. This is a matter of great benefit but no harm. He wants to participate in it.


    "Thank you


    Pang turned around and retired.

 Chapter 1233

    Chen family in Dunhuang.


    The backyard.


    In a pavilion, Chen Yin is drinking tea.


    His pavilion is located in the center of the lake. Even though it is hot, the center of the lake is much cooler. Especially in Dunhuang, water is a very important resource, but the Chen family dug a man-made lake to bring water in, which is quite luxurious.


    When Chen Yin was drinking tea, not far away, his family''s attendants came in a hurry and reported: "master, Guan Zuo and Li Ning have come to see him. They are waiting in the hall now."


    "Let them wait a moment."


    Chen Yin had not finished a pot of tea, so he gave an order. After the valet left, Chen Yin still drank tea leisurely and enjoyed the peace of summer.


    Chen Yin had to keep a low profile and did not dare to show any signs of luxury. Now that Mr. Chen has passed away and Chen Yin is in charge, he can change his former state and begin to enjoy himself.


    After a pot of tea, Chen Yincai went to the hall.


    It''s more than a quarter of an hour since the waiter reported to me, but Guan Zuo and Li Ning dare not have the slightest impatience. They all depend on the Chen family for a living.


    After Chen Yin enters, Guan Zuo and Li Ning quickly get up and salute.


    Chen Yin nodded, then sat down and asked, "you two are going to collect grapes now. How can I come to the government now when I have free time. Nowadays, a lot of grapes are needed in all channels, whether in Liangzhou or to the western regions. It takes a lot of effort. "


    "Here it is


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning should go down immediately.


    They looked at each other, and finally Guan Zuo said, "brother, there''s something else going on now. This has affected our acquisition of grapes. "


    Chen Yin said, "what''s the matter?"


    Guan Zuo replied: "the imperial court is still buying grapes, and it is buying them at the market price. The people who were threatened by us and did not dare to sell grapes to the imperial court have already begun to sell grapes. "


    After a pause, Guan Zuo said again: "this thing has shocked them for less than a day. Now, it''s time to start mass trafficking again. As a result, our people went to collect grapes, but no one paid any attention. After all, the price was too low. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Chen Yin clenched his teeth and said, "are these Dalits tired of living. Don''t they worry that when the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty leave later and the imperial court can''t manage Dunhuang, they will be liquidated? "


    Guan Zuo looked helpless and said: "brother, our people have repeatedly reiterated the interest in this. But these damned rascals just ignore us. Now we can''t get grapes. Alas, if you don''t get any grapes this day, you will lose a lot of money. "


    Li Ning said: "that is, at the end of the day, the loss is too great."


    Chen Yin said, "what''s wrong with this. If they are just a group of rascals, how can they dare to be enemies with our Chen family. There must be someone behind them. "


    Guan Zuo asked, "who is there?"


    Li Ning echoed: "yes, who is behind them?"


    Chen Yin listens to two people to inquire, the corner of the mouth smoked to smoke, saw two people are very dissatisfied.


    These two wastes.


    Nothing can be done.


    Chen Yin once again said, "it''s the people of the imperial court who can be behind these people. They think that with the support of the imperial court, they are not afraid of my Chen family. Hum, they forget that the county magistrate should be in charge now. In particular, the dragon does not pressure the local leader. My Chen family has been in Dunhuang for so many years, but it has not been established in vain for more than a hundred years. "


    Guan Zuo flashed a light in his eyes and said, "what are you going to do, brother?"


    Chen Yin said: "we must teach them a lesson and let them know. My Chen family is in Dunhuang county. Not everyone can compete. These damned rascals are not clean up. "


    In the words, it is cold and sharp.


    In particular, Chen Yin''s eyes were full of anger. He thinks that even if there are people from the imperial court in Dunhuang County, the imperial court is just a puppet. He is the king of Dunhuang and can control Dunhuang.


    Unexpectedly, the people did not obey the arrangement.


    Chen Yin said: "Guan Zuo, you and Li Ning, take people to the people''s home. Select a few families for me, and then deal with them. As long as you don''t kill people, there''s no problem. "


    "Ah


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning were shocked.


    Both of them were a little nervous.


    In other words, in normal times, there are no people from the imperial court in Dunhuang County, so no one can control how they toss about in Dunhuang. But now Zhang Xiu leads a large army stationed in Dunhuang, in case things get big in front of Zhang Xiu, they such small shrimps, simply can''t bear Zhang Xiu''s anger.


    This is the concern of both.


    Chen Yin scolded and said, "ah, what? I just want you to fight a few people. This time, after you took people to clean up the farmers, I arranged for people to turn themselves in to the county government. Hum, if you beat someone, you can plead guilty. Even if the government knows something, it won''t help. After all, those who beat people have pleaded guilty. So you don''t have to worry. "After hearing this, Guan Zuo thought about it in his heart. He also showed a smile on his face and said: "brother''s plan is really exquisite. Li Ning and I will do it at once


    Li Ning also said: "in this way, we can really beat these Dalits. Under such circumstances, this group of untouchables will not dare to sell grapes any more. Otherwise, we''ll make them all restless. On our side, there are plenty of people to answer the blame. But these Untouchables can''t afford the loss. "


    Chen Yin said, "that''s the case. Let''s make arrangements."


    "Here it is


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning smell speech, two people immediately leave the Chen family, each to arrange things.


    Pang Xiu is very busy now.


    After all, there are too many grapes to buy.


    In particular, Pang Xiu got Pang Tong''s arrangement. All those who want to sell grapes are welcome. The current premise is good quality. If the quality is not good, it is impossible to reach the standard of market price.


    At the end of the day, Pang Xiu''s waist was about to break.


    The whole person is extremely tired.


    He dragged his tired body back to the place where he lived. Now, instead of being in the military camp, he has a special house in the city, where he lives.


    When Pang Xiu lay down to rest, there was a knock outside the room.


    "Who is it?"


    Pang Xiu replied impatiently.


    He thought it was not a troublesome and difficult thing to collect grapes, but now he understands that the trouble is not troublesome, and the difficulty is not so difficult, but the problem is that he is too busy to go to the toilet.


    As soon as Pang Xiu lay down, he did not want to move.


    There was a report from the servant outside the room: "my Lord, there are eight fruit growers outside the residence. They all claim to have sold us grapes today. Now, they have been beaten. They are all beaten to pieces. They are blue and purple. It''s very sad. "


    When Pang Xiu heard this, he suddenly woke up.


    The farmer was beaten.


    This is not a simple matter, because the purchase of grapes was arranged by the Emperor himself. When something went wrong, it was difficult to deliver to the emperor, so Pang Xiu immediately said, "please come to the hall. I''ll come later."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    Pang Xiu immediately put on his coat, dragged his tired body, and went to the hall. When he entered the hall, he saw the fruit growers standing in the hall, one by one in shabby clothes, covered with blood, with black and purple faces and scars everywhere.


    Among these people, the oldest one seems to be in his early fifties, and the youngest one is nearly thirty. They are beaten one by one, and their faces show helplessness.


    Pang Xiu waved his hand and said, "sit down!"


    The leader''s name is Jiang Daqi. He is about 50 years old. Today, Jiang Daqi also has several upper parts on his forehead and face. Even on him, there is a bruise everywhere.


    Jiang Daqi looked mournful and said, "giant, we were beaten because we sold grapes to the imperial court. The man who beat us was the brother-in-law of Chen Yin, the head of the Chen family. This man''s name is Guan Zuo. He beat us with people and then left. Besides, Guan Zuo also said that if we complain, if we continue to sell grapes, we have to beat us again. Please make the decision for us


    Brush!


    Pang Xiu''s face changed slightly.


    It turned out to be the Chen family. The Chen family is so arrogant.


    The last time he failed to buy grapes, it was because the Chen family secretly intervened that he could not receive the grapes. Now, after the Chen family has been suppressed, they are not willing to be defeated. They send people to fight again and beat the people.


    The blow is against the law.


    Pang Xiu thought about it in his heart and said, "you are not safe to go back now. Take a rest in this house for a while. I''ll report to the barracks immediately. Please rest assured that I will give you an answer tonight. "


    "Lord Xie Pang."


    "Thank you, my Lord."


    One by one, the growers began to thank each other, and their faces were excited.


    At least there is hope.


    Now, they all hope to take advantage of Zhang Xiu''s strength and destroy the Chen family. After all, they have been squeezed by the Chen family. If the Chen family is not disposed of, they are still unsafe. On the contrary, if the imperial court takes action, even if the Chen family is powerful, in front of the imperial court, the Chen family is a mole ant.


    Pang Xiu waved his hand and said, "you have a problem because of the grapes. You should not thank me. I want to say sorry to you. "


    After a pause, Pang Xiu continued: "now, I will go to the barracks immediately and ask your majesty to make a judgment."


    Everyone was grateful again.


    In a word, Pang Xiu cherishes the present income, so he is very cautious. But in front of the people, he said he wanted to meet Zhang Xiu. But in fact, Pang Xiu went straight to see Pang Tong and said, "I''ve seen a huge man."


    Pang Tong said, "get up and talk."


    "Thank you.


    Pang Xiu answered immediately.At this time, Pang Xiu was also relieved. In front of Zhang Xiu, he had no sense of existence and could not see Zhang Xiu. But Pang Tong is different. Pang Tong is an important official of Zhang Xiu. You can see Zhang Xiu at any time. You can get permission from Pang Tong.


    This is ponchou''s plan.

 Chapter 1234

    Pang Xiu left his residence all night, and he did not dare to delay even after the early morning. Pang Xiu is very clear about his talent. His ability is mediocre, and his ability to take charge of the acquisition of grapes is also in Pang Tong''s light, so Pang Xiu is very diligent.


    When something happened, he didn''t dare to delay.


    When Pang Xiu arrived at the barracks, he went straight into the barracks and came to Pang Tong''s resting camp. He asked the soldiers stationed outside the barracks to enter. After a while, the soldiers invited him in.


    After Pang Xiu entered, he saw Pang Tong sitting on the couch and bowed to him.


    Pang Tong said, "it''s so late. What can I do for you


    Pang Xiu didn''t dare to hide. He immediately told Jiang Daqi and other fruit farmers what happened. Finally, he said, "my Lord, the Chen family not only beat the fruit farmers, but also threatened them. These people are bold. If we don''t deal with it, I''m afraid it will cause an uproar, and the people dare not sell grapes to us any more. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When Pang Tong heard this, he couldn''t help shouting.


    His face was full of anger.


    Originally, Pang Tong had informed Shi a that Shi a would arrange someone to inquire about the Chen family''s problems and prepare to attack the Chen family. However, he did not expect that before dealing with the Chen family, the Chen family was so bad at attacking the people.


    This is also the reason why Jiang Daqi and others believe in the imperial court.


    If some timid, for fear of revenge by the Chen family, will not dare to come to redress.


    Pang Tong''s eyes turned, thinking about the countermeasures.


    It''s late at night and it''s not easy to deal with. After all, Zhang Xiu has already gone to bed. If he wants to deal with the Chen family, he needs to transfer troops. If he wants to transfer troops, he must at least ask Zhang Xiu for instructions.


    A moment later, Pang Tong had made up his mind and said, "Pang Xiu, you should go back to your house immediately. Tomorrow morning, you will bring Jiang Daqi and others to the barracks to find me. I will take you to see your majesty. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Xiu''s fist should be thrown.


    After he left, he soon returned to his house and met Jiang Daqi and others. Looking at the expectant eyes, Pang Xiu said: "ladies and gentlemen, you will have a rest in your house tonight. Tomorrow morning, follow me to the barracks. Pang Tongda, take you to see your Majesty in person, and ask your majesty to make decisions for you. "


    "Lord Xie Pang."


    Jiang Daqi and others were all excited.


    The emperor made the decision for them. At this moment, Jiang Daqi and other farmers, whose hearts were hanging in the air, had already fallen to the ground. They were no longer worried about their own safety, and they were no longer worried that the grapes could not be sold.


    One night without words, the next morning.


    Pang Xiu and his men soon left the residence and went to the barracks.


    When they came into the camp and saw Pang Tong, they went to Zhang Xiu''s army tent under Pang Tong''s leadership. Pang Tong brought people in. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he explained the situation quickly and said, "Your Majesty, the Chen family is too rampant. At the beginning, the Chen family destroyed the agreement and lowered the price of grapes, causing damage to countless people. "


    "After all, there''s no contract. The Chen family doesn''t buy grapes, and no one will do anything to the Chen family. At most, that is to say, the Chen family has lost their moral integrity. "


    "But your majesty arranged Pang Xiu to buy grapes, and the Chen family set up a threat to the fruit growers. As a result, countless people were forced by the Chen family to sell grapes. "


    "I took people to do the work of the people. After pacifying the people, the people sold grapes in large quantities. But now, the Chen family arranges people to beat the people and threaten them not to sell grapes. It''s really rampant. "


    Pang Tong clenched his teeth and said, "I think we must take down the Chen family immediately. Such a family is abominable. If we don''t kill the Chen family, it will be hard for the people to live in peace. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a report came from outside the camp.


    But Shia entered.


    When Shi a entered the camp, he saw Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, I have been paying close attention to the movements of the Chen family. They found that the Chen family arranged for people to beat the common people. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I know about this. All the people who were beaten by the Chen family are here."


    Shi ahuan saw Jiang Daqi and others, but said: "not only that, early this morning, the Chen family arranged another person to go to the county government to confess his guilt. These people who pleaded guilty all beat the common people yesterday. They all went to plead guilty. "


    When Pang Tong heard this, he was even more angry and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, you see, the Chen family really does everything without leakage. They must have considered that the people may cause trouble, so they have arranged for people to turn themselves in and plead guilty. "


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there was a cold color.


    He didn''t expect that the Chen family could do so many things.


    There''s a way.


    That''s very bold.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Shi a and asked, "have you ever inquired into the evidence of the Chen family?"


    Shi a replied: "I will report to your majesty that all the evidence of the Chen family has been found. It is a small matter to calculate the common people once or twice. In fact, Chen Yin, the head of the Chen family, had colluded with the Kushan people before. The reason why Dunhuang County fell was that he helped the Kushan people to send news, which led to the Kushan people''s easy access to Dunhuang. This is the most direct evidence. "Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "are you sure?"


    "Your Majesty, I am sure. Because the staff of Chen Yin''s family were the people who surrendered to Kushan. The name of the staff is Jinyuan, who was placed in Dunhuang by Kushan. The Jin principle connects the Chen family with the Kushan, making the Chen family submit to the Kushan. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "let''s go, go with me to the Chen family and take Chen Yin and other people. In addition, the people who were threatened for the first time, as well as Jiang Daqi and others who were threatened this time, all took them with them and gathered them together for confrontation. "


    "Here it is


    Shia, go to inform me immediately.


    Jiang Daqi and others were full of joy on their faces.


    They are happy because Zhang Xiu is in charge of justice. If it were not for Zhang Xiu, they would have escaped the persecution of the Chen family this year, and they would certainly have been in trouble next year.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, Zhang Xiu left the camp with her men.


    One thousand soldiers went with Zhang Xiu to ensure their safety.


    The army is vast and fast on its way.


    On the way, some people came together, who had been threatened by the Chen family. In addition to Jiang Daqi, there are dozens of people gathered.


    Especially on the way, there are countless people with them. When people learned that Zhang Xiu was going to deal with the Chen family, all the people were even more elated and ready to see the outcome of the Chen family.


    When the team led by Zhang Xiu came to the house of the Chen family, there were soldiers knocking at the door.


    When the porter heard the sound, he opened the door to yell. However, as soon as I walked out of the gate, I saw the troops outside the residence and the dense heads of people. I was shocked.


    Too many people!


    The porter''s legs were soft for a while, and he reached out to hold the door, and then stabilized his body.


    He gulped down a mouthful of saliva and asked, "who are you, just outside the door of the Chen family? I tell you, this is the Chen family. If you''re all right, just leave. Otherwise, don''t blame the Chen family for being rude. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t speak. Pang Tong came forward and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty the emperor of Qin is here. Let Chen Yin come out to meet you."


    When the porter heard it, his heart and liver trembled.


    Unexpectedly, his Majesty the emperor of Qin came to the Chen family in person.


    The porter didn''t dare to delay. He turned around and went to inform. After a while, he saw Chen Yin walking out in gorgeous clothes. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and said, "Cao min Chen Yin, I''d like to meet your majesty. May your majesty live a long and happy life."


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "I''m afraid I can''t live forever. You, Chen Yin, have colluded with the Kushan people long ago. How can you wish I could live forever if I die early? "


    Brush!


    Chen Yin''s face suddenly changed.


    He didn''t expect that the emperor came to his residence to ask for a crime. Chen Yin didn''t expect this, because the Kushan people had already left. He thought that he would not reveal his purpose for the Kushan people.


    But now it''s exposed.


    It''s tough.

 Chapter 1235

    Chen Yin knows that no matter what, he can''t plead guilty. Once he confessed, it was treason, so Chen Yin said, "Your Majesty, you misunderstood me. The Chen family has lived in Dunhuang for generations. As a big family in Dunhuang, there has never been any betrayal. "


    After a pause, Chen Yin said: "I, Chen Yin, can swear to heaven that there is absolutely no treason, and there has never been collusion with Kushan. If that is the case, the grassroots are willing to split their bodies into five parts


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "you dare to swear that you are not afraid of retribution. Yeah, you''re not afraid of retribution. Because you surrendered to Kushan, many Han people in Dunhuang were oppressed by Kushan people, and many people died. You have so much blood on your hands. How can you be afraid of it? "


    Chen Yin said: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood the grass people."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I don''t know if it''s a misunderstanding, but I only know that you must have colluded with the Kushan people. There is a man named Jinyuan around you. Call him out. "


    Brush!


    Chen Yin''s face changed slightly again.


    Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu even knew Jin Yuan.


    At this moment, Chen Yin was completely flustered and confused.


    Facing the strong Zhang Xiu, Chen Yin couldn''t refuse and didn''t dare to refuse, so he immediately arranged for the attendant to enter the notice. Soon, Jin Yuan came out of the room. He stood beside Chen Yin, looking humble.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Chen Yin, Jinyuan is a running dog of Kushan. You are in collusion with Jinyuan, and you have also submitted to guishuang. You used to work for the tiger. What do you say about this


    Chen Yin still clenched his teeth and said, "no, I didn''t


    "It''s so unrepentant."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head, her eyes became colder and fiercer, and said: "now you answer simply, but you forget. After the army of Kushan entered the city, Chen Yin entertained the general of Kushan several times, and even had close contact with him. These things were not seen by one or two people, and the whole people of Dunhuang also knew about them. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "as for now, you are greedy and oppressive for your own sake, and you intend to buy all the grapes at a low price. Your means are despicable, and you beat the people and trample on the law wantonly."


    Chen Yin said again, "I didn''t!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you said no, but you forgot that all the beaten people knew the Chen family. In particular, Guan Zuo and Li Ning are not unrecognized by the public. "


    Along the way, Shi a reported a lot of news.


    Shia knows the main information. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu knows the cause and effect of things and all kinds of things very well.


    Chen Yin felt guilty when he heard this.


    Because listen to the tone of Zhang Xiu, seems to be to deal with him.


    Especially in the face of Zhang Xiu, Chen Yin only feels that there are waves of pressure. Under the boundless pressure, Chen Yin''s forehead was sweating, and even his legs were weak.


    He can''t stand the pressure.


    "Plop!"


    Chen Yin is also a man of several decades old, but at the moment, he is also paralyzed to the ground by Zhang Xiu. He is lying on his hands and says in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, Chen Yin has committed a serious crime. Please give it up. Chen Yin is willing to give an account of it all. He only asks his majesty to open up one side of the net. "


    Zhang Xiu said coldly: "people like you deserve to die. If people like you can survive, how can I explain to the thousands of people in Dunhuang. How can those who resist Kushan and die miserably because of your collusion with Kushan die in peace? "


    Chen Yin''s face twitched and his expression changed again and again.


    Zhang Xiu''s tone is too cold.


    There is no room for it.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "if Chen Yin, who has a little conscience, still goes on according to the policy of the Chen family, I will not notice you."


    "It''s a pity that you''re targeting the people. They not only threatened in private, but also arranged for people to beat the people, and let people go to the county government to answer the charges. You, Chen Yin, are really calculating. "


    "It''s a pity that you are too clever to use all your tricks. In the end, it''s your own fault."


    "If you don''t die, the people will be in trouble."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "especially people like Chen Yin, who have harmed the people of a city by themselves. Keep you, I''m afraid that in the future, thousands of Dunhuang people will have to point at me by the nose and scold me. "


    "Come on, take Chen Yin!"


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    The soldiers immediately came forward and took Chen Yin into custody.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Chen Yin, who is already dejected, and sneers. Today''s Chen Yin is still begging for mercy, but now it''s too late.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on the common people on the street outside, saying: "villagers, Chen Yin should be punished for his crime. Three days later, Chen Yin was beheaded outside the south gate. You can all go and watch. "


    "Your Majesty is holy!"


    In the crowd, suddenly there were people shouting.


    This is to thank Zhang Xiu for killing Chen Yin.


    "Your majesty


    "Your majestyOne after another of the cries, constantly sounded. More and more people, constantly shouting. More and more people are blushing with excitement.


    Chen Yin is a big moth in Dunhuang county. In one day, Chen Yin''s life was very difficult for the common people. But now that Chen Yin is about to be killed, the people are very happy.


    "Your Majesty, will the Chen family not deal with it?"


    In the crowd, there were people shouting again.


    Obviously, the common people are not only against Chen Yin, but also against the Chen family.


    Zhang Xiu tossed a voice: "Chen Yin was taken down, the Chen family is also guilty, it is to seal up. From today on, we will demobilize all the servants of the Chen family, and then all the people of the Chen family. However, Guan Zuo and Li Ning have to stay. These two people are fighting for the tiger. They look out for Chen Yin everywhere and kill a lot of people. They really deserve to die. "


    Guan Zuo and Li Ning are in custody.


    Now hear Zhang Xiu''s words, two people''s heart, is also heart like ashes. At this point in the matter, the two men, as Chen Yin''s doglegs, must not be able to escape.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, the soldiers in the army began to take action.


    If it''s time to seal up the Chen family, seal up the Chen family.


    If it''s time to send someone away, it''s time to send someone away.


    When the soldiers in the army are busy, Zhang Xiu''s eyes turn to the people gathered outside the residence. He shouts: "villagers, now the Chen family has been removed. You are free to sell grain or grapes. "


    The people cheered.


    Because they can sell grapes by themselves and make a lot of profits.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay long, because after Chen Yin was killed, Jin Yuan was also killed soon, and other people who had been involved with Chen Yin pleaded guilty one after another. After all this, these talents are steadfast, otherwise they are worried about Zhang Xiu''s future.


    With the army, Zhang Xiu began to withdraw.


    After all, we don''t need an army.

 Chapter 1236

    When the Chen family''s affairs came to an end, the whole Dunhuang County regained its tranquility. Pang Xiu continued to buy grapes in large quantities, which cost countless money. But even so, there was no pressure, because the Chen family was taken, and the money seized by the Chen family alone was countless, enough to run pangxiu''s business.


    With the collapse of the Chen family, Pang Xiu took over the business channels of the Chen family. So Pang Xiu''s shop is not only making raisins, but also selling grapes.


    The whole business system is very successful.


    On this day, Pang Xiu personally came to Zhang Xiu''s army account.


    In the past, Pang Xiu was just a very ordinary official, that is to say, he worked with Pang Tong and was not qualified to meet Zhang Xiu. But now, because of the business of the shop, he can see Zhang Xiu directly.


    Even Pang Xiu''s ability is mediocre, thanks to Pang Tong''s guidance. After all, Pang Xiu is not stupid, and the business of the shop is not so complicated. Especially after other practices make perfect, he has become more skilled and capable.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu, Pang Xiu is still excited.


    It''s exciting.


    After all, it''s a great blessing to see the emperor of a country.


    Pang Xiu pushed the golden mountain down to the jade pillar, then knelt down on the ground and said: "humble Pang Xiu, see your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    When Pang Xiu stood up, he immediately said, "I will report back to your majesty. I rely on the Chen family''s money and business channels. Nowadays, the purchase and sale of grapes are already on a regular basis. All the grapes in Dunhuang are sold in large quantities. "


    "In particular, we have the support of the government, and the transportation speed is fast."


    "So it can sell further."


    "Nowadays, grapes alone are a daily income, and the profit is considerable."


    Pang Xiu continued with a solemn look on his face: "however, relying on grapes alone is too single. Dunhuang is located in Liangzhou. Because of its soil and water, the fruits are very sweet. Besides grapes, there are melons and other fruits. Therefore, they are humble and hope to be able to manage them. Even the operation of melons and fruits is too single to form an industry. "


    Zhang Xiu has come and gone.


    Pang Xiu has some ideas, and the Pang Xiu I see now has changed a lot.


    When Zhang Xiu saw Pang Xiu for the first time, Pang Xiu was nervous and stammered. He was timid and couldn''t let go. But now Pang Xiu, even in front of Zhang Xiu, is still a little cramped, but he is very confident in his speech and behavior, and has his own ideas, which makes Zhang Xiu praise him very much.


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you say that the shops are too single to form an industry, what do you think? But it doesn''t hurt to say so. "


    "Thank you


    Pang Xiu bowed his thanks.


    Instead of explaining it immediately, he once again organized the wording in his heart and said, "Your Majesty, Dunhuang is located in Liangzhou. The demand for salt, iron, silk cloth and tea in this place is huge. Pure fruit business, in fact, there is no money to make, but a small fight


    "I visited some places and learned about Dunhuang."


    "If we can sell salt, iron, silk, tea and so on, then the business will become bigger and stronger. In particular, this shop belongs to the government. With the support of the government, it will develop faster. "


    Pang Xiu said: "so I hope that I can set up official shops in Dunhuang. On the one hand, they are engaged in Dunhuang and domestic business; on the other hand, they can sell silk and tea to the western regions. "


    "Not bad, not bad!" said Zhang Xiuyan


    Pang Xiu had such an idea, which Zhang Xiu highly praised.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "if you want to do this, what do you need?"


    Pang Xiu was elated.


    Once supported by the emperor, the shop he was in charge of would become an unprecedentedly powerful one. Once developed, its strength will not be weaker than that of Daqin coal industry and paper industry, or even more so.


    After all, it involves a lot of business projects, and because of the natural lack of silk, cloth, salt and iron in Liangzhou, with the support of the imperial court, Pang Xiu is sure to become bigger and stronger.


    Pang Xiu thought about it carefully, and then said: "tell your majesty, I don''t need talents, and I don''t need money. The only thing you need is your Majesty''s support. With your Majesty''s permission, everything will be all right. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll let you do it. But there is one premise, not to do anything against the law. Once you let me know that you have violated the law, you will surely die. "


    Pang Xiu said: "please rest assured, your majesty, I understand."


    After a pause, Pang Xiu said: "Your Majesty''s first support is to ask your majesty to nominate for our shop. With your Majesty''s gold lettered signboard, things will be much easier to do. Please give me the name of the shop. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate. She spread out the rice paper, picked up the pen and dipped it in ink, and then wrote down three big words.


    Qingyu hall!Three words, through the back of the paper, iron draw silver hook.


    Zhang Xiu wrote down the name of the shop and said, "this Qingyu hall is the name of the shop you run. Qingyu hall, Qingyu hall, there must be Yuqing in the family of good deeds. I hope that the Qingyu hall you are in charge of can not only do business and make money, but also manage the world and help the people, so that countless people can benefit from it. "


    Looking at Zhang Xiu''s inscription, Pang Xiu was even more excited and exclaimed, "please rest assured that Pang Xiu will live up to your high expectations. Qingyu hall will become a real Qingyu hall. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I believe you!"


    "Thank you


    Pang Xiu took the inscription from Zhang Xiu and carefully put it away.


    These three words are gold lettered signboards.


    It is the foundation on which he stands.


    Pang Xiu finished the matter, and then came to Zhang Xiu''s support and praise, so he stopped staying and left quickly. Zhang Xiu expected Pang Xiu, but in a flash, Zhang Xiu forgot about it. He began to study the map of Dunhuang and the issue of sending troops.


    Towards noon, the soldiers brought lunch early.


    When Zhang Xiu was having lunch, Wang Yue was in a hurry and quickly entered. He bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, I have something important to report."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s not an important thing that you should report on one day. Now, haven''t you had lunch yet? "


    Wang Yue said, "I''ll have dinner later."


    Zhang xiudao said, "you don''t have to go to dinner alone. Come and have dinner with me. You can talk while you eat." Not allow Wang Yue to refuse, Zhang Xiu immediately arranged, let people bring a pair of chopsticks.


    Wang Yue was also excited.


    It is a great honor for people of this era to have dinner with the emperor.


    It can be said that the ancestral tombs are emitting green smoke.


    So Wang Yue was very excited. Even when he picked up the chopsticks, his hands, which had always been very steady, trembled a little. Fortunately, Wang Yue also suppressed his excitement.


    While eating, Wang Yue reported: "to your majesty, the royal guards of the western regions have just sent back a message. A gold mine was discovered in Shule country, thousands of miles west of Dunhuang. "


    "The location of this gold mine, stretching for tens of miles, is unprecedented."


    "Now this area is controlled by the army of Kushan. In addition, the country of Shule and countless people around it were forced to go to the gold mine to dig. "


    "But the scope of the gold mine is too wide. It covers dozens of miles, especially a lot. So in a short period of time, they can''t mine all of them. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, we have found the whereabouts of the other party. Should we send troops immediately and go straight to the countries in the western regions, and then arrive at Shule as soon as possible to seize the gold mine?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought about it in her eyes.


    Gold mine!


    It means wealth!


    If we control the gold mine in our hands, it means that the gold reserves of Daqin bank can go further. In fact, today''s Daqin, the market has begun to popular pen and paper, is specially developed by the Bank of Daqin, can be circulated in the market.


    However, its traffic level is not high.


    But there are already.


    It is precisely because of the existence of paper money that a large amount of gold is needed to enrich the Treasury and ensure that the Treasury has sufficient gold reserves.


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart, and then said, "come and inform Guo Jia, Pang Tong and Xun Yu to come to discuss the matter."


    "Here it is


    When the soldier got the order, he went to inform him immediately.

 Chapter 1237

    After a short time, Pang Tong, Guo Jia and Xun Yu entered the army together. As military advisers, they have no war now, but they are quite idle. They just need to gather the information sent back from the front line, and then figure out the plan of sending troops.


    Three people each take a seat, the vision brushes together falls on Zhang Xiu''s body.


    Zhang Xiu immediately said about the discovery of gold in Shule state, and then said: "gold is a strategic resource of a country, so we must seize the gold in Shule state. What do you think of this? "


    Pang Tong had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, we have learned a lot about the situation of the western regions. I think we can send troops into the western regions. After all, the troops of Kushan are now shrinking to Kushan. In the western regions, even if there is the power of Kushan, it is much less. "


    Guo Jiayan said: "Your Majesty, I agree with what Mr. Pang said. However, after entering the western regions, many places were uninhabited, even without water. So now, even if we want to go to Shule country, we must also consider the route to ensure sufficient water along the way. With such a large number of soldiers, if there is not enough water, in the end, even if there is more food, it will be very troublesome. "


    Xun Yu said, "Your Majesty, I agree with what Mr. Pang and Mr. Guo said."


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people''s words, then knew that this matter was all agreed, and said: "if so, then prepare to send troops."


    Guo Jia continued: "but when it comes to the gold mines in Shule state, I think we should make some plans. Otherwise, we will march in on a large scale, which may lead to the spirit of weeding. "


    "For example, in Shule country, many gold mines have been mined, but they have not yet been transported away. Once we know that our army is close to Shule country, the other party may carry it away ahead of time. "


    "Or, when our army arrives, the Kushan army has arrived."


    "So the priority now is to make a plan."


    Guo Jia said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, my minister''s suggestion is that before the army sets out, we should send a team of elite soldiers to the gold mine to destroy the Kushan garrison near the gold mine and take the gold mine."


    "Yes," said Zhang Xiu


    At this point, Zhang Xiu arranged for people to bring Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, Gan Ning and Gao Lan.


    Four people gathered in the camp.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered: "during this period, the army has been stationed in Dunhuang, and has never entered the army. However, after this period of recuperation, the soldiers in the army have already recuperated, and they also have a clear understanding of the situation in the western regions. Now, we can send troops. "


    Everyone was excited by the speech.


    Finally, we can send troops.


    No matter Zhao Yun or Zhang Ren, they all know that this time they were stationed in Dunhuang, they wanted to invade the western regions, or even the territory of Kushan to wipe out Kushan completely.


    Under such a premise, everyone is ready for the coming of war.


    Zhang Xiu immediately took out the maps of the countries in the western regions and arranged for Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren, Gan Ning and Gao Lan. The army was divided into four routes, each with its own area and route to be swept up.


    This arrangement alone lasted for an hour.


    After everything was arranged, Guo Jia suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the four armies have their own tasks. But, your majesty, which army do you follow


    With a smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said, "I don''t follow any army. They have four armies to sweep all countries, while I lead a small group of troops, with Lvbu, desert and the forbidden army around me, to go straight to Shule country to control the gold mine first."


    Guo Jia''s cheeks twitched.


    Sure enough!


    It''s a familiar formula.


    Zhang Xiu is still going to fight in person, and is risking her life.


    Guo Jia advised: "Your Majesty, the war on the front line is extremely dangerous. In particular, the fourth Route Army is approaching step by step, not driving straight in. Shule kingdom is located in the west of the western regions, which is close to the West. Under such circumstances, if your majesty wants to enter the kingdom of Shule, he will go deep into it alone and take great risks. "


    Pang Tong echoed: "Your Majesty, the western regions are different from the Central Plains. The western regions are more windy and dangerous. Especially those who are not familiar with life and land are even more dangerous. The favorable weather, location and people do not account for any of these factors. "


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty is adventurous and unwilling to command in the rear. We are used to it. But it should also be with the army. In this way, we will not fall into crisis. Now, your majesty is so headstrong, have you ever considered the stability of the Qin Dynasty. If your majesty makes any mistake, then Daqin will be in danger. "


    One after another, one person began to persuade.


    Even Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and others are the same.


    After all, in the western regions, people are not familiar with the place of life, and even have no language. Under such a premise, all the people spoke out against it, hoping that Zhang Xiu would follow the army instead of going deep alone.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "your words are all reasonable, and I agree with them. If I really wanted to consider safety, I would not have led my troops to fight every time, but would have stayed in Chang''an. "


    "I know that there are risks in going to the front.""I also know the risk of fighting."


    "But I don''t like to lie in the back and do nothing like this. Of course, I know it''s irresponsible to do so. It''s not like a king did it. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "but I still want to go. Because in my life, I will not hide in the rear, but fight in the front. "


    Everyone is helpless.


    Such a king on the stall is really tired, but they can''t persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Because Zhang Xiu is very independent.


    Zhang Xiu looked confident and continued: "gentlemen, I am very clear about your worries. But as a matter of fact, I will never fight a war without confidence, and I will not act rashly and impulsively. "


    "A war with planning and preparation is a war with preparation. Go straight to fight, that''s death, that''s courage. I know what to do and what not to do when I go to the front line. "


    "So rest assured."


    "After all these years, don''t you know my style?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "so I went to the front line, you don''t have to worry, there won''t be any problems."


    "Just, just!"


    When Xun Yu heard this, he shook his head and sighed.


    He didn''t agree with what Zhang Xiu had done, but he couldn''t persuade her. In particular, Zhang Xiu has won many battles and never failed. Under such a premise, it is almost a very difficult thing to persuade Zhang Xiu.


    Pang Tong was the first person to follow Zhang Xiu. He said, "Your Majesty, I won''t say much. The minister said, "when your majesty is at the front line, please consider the crown prince and empress in Chang''an."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I''m going here with elite soldiers and Lv Bu, Sha Moke and others. I''m sure there''s no problem with my safety. And if something goes wrong, I will withdraw immediately. "


    When they heard this, they stopped persuading them.


    After all, it''s settled.

 Chapter 1238

    In the afternoon of that day, the Qin army had already left Dunhuang for the western regions. This time, the troops were divided into four routes, while the more than 2000 soldiers Zhang Xiu was carrying were hiding behind the scenes and never exposed their tracks.


    Especially Zhang Xiu''s speed is faster.


    From Dunhuang all the way to the west, the first country to arrive in the western regions is the mountain country.


    This is a small country.


    The capital city is called Moshan city. It has only two thousand troops and a population of only ten thousand. In particular, these ten thousand people are not the permanent population in Moshan city. In the real Moshan City, the population is no more than 6000 or 7000, and more than 3000 people gather around the Moshan City, either living in the mountains or scattered villages.


    But now, there is no mountain country, and Moshan city has become a county of Kushan.


    In Zhang Xiu''s army, Li bengen, the prince of the mountain kingdom, stands out.


    He was in his early twenties.


    Originally, his father was old and dying, and liebengen was about to succeed the king of the mountain kingdom. But unexpectedly, the army of Kushan came to kill, the mountain kingdom was broken, his father died, and the people of the mountain kingdom were slaughtered countless times.


    As a result, libengen was exiled in Dunhuang.


    Now, it is controlled by Zhang Xiu.


    After entering the mountain kingdom, Zhang Xiu''s army called Li Ben Gen and asked, "Li Ben gen, the army led by me can''t be found by the Kushan garrison of Mo mountain city. Can you find a way to let me cross the mountain kingdom quietly and enter the Western Weili kingdom?"


    "There''s a way!"


    Liebengen answered immediately.


    He knows Zhang Xiu. If he is useless to Zhang Xiu, he may be killed.


    So he answered directly.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "what method?"


    Libogen replied, "in the southwest of our mountain country, there is a desert called almuhan. The length of this desert is about 130 miles. Because it is a desert, lack of water and vegetation, so very few people live, there is no one to go. But there is a road that can cross the desert


    "As long as you cross the almuhan desert, you can bypass the Moshan city. Even if there is a garrison in Moshan City, it is impossible to find us. We will be safe then. "


    "The only trouble is that it''s hard to walk in the desert."


    "It''s hot after all."


    Liebengen said: "Your Majesty, this journey is difficult. However, if you go through it, you can avoid sight. But please think twice about how to choose


    He made suggestions.


    Because at the moment, this is the most appropriate choice.


    He did his best.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and thought carefully in her heart. In fact, it''s not too difficult for an energetic army to travel more than 130 miles. Once you are on your way at full speed, you can cross the desert in a short time.


    Even if it''s difficult, it''s not too big.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, we will cross the whole almuhan desert."


    Worried about his own safety, he added, "Your Majesty, it''s not easy to cross the almuhan desert. Especially in the desert, the wind and sand are very strong, so it is easy to lose the way. Even the desert is not easy to walk. So you have to be careful. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed up, examined Li bengen, and said: "even in the desert, there must be a way. You know, the road in the desert. "


    "Libengen, as long as you take the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty and cross the almuhan desert smoothly."


    "Well, I can promise to give you a mansion in Chang''an City and allow you to become an official. Although it is impossible for you to hold any particularly important position, it is enough to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing, so that you can really have a foothold in Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "have you ever thought about it?"


    When Reuben heard this, he clenched his fist.


    There was a look of expectation in his eyes, because today''s libengen, though alive, has no freedom. Even Zhang Xiu promised that after the destruction of the western regions, they would be given honor and wealth.


    But in fact, everyone was worried, and so was libengen. Now, in front of the officers and men of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu says that it is an opportunity to give him honor and wealth and let him have a foothold in the Qin Dynasty.


    "Is your Majesty''s promise true?" he asked


    Zhang xiudao said: "I am the emperor of Qin Dynasty. I follow what I say. Since I have promised you, it must be true, and I will not deceive you


    Libogen said, "OK, I''ll do it. However, I can''t rely on it. After all, I just went to the almuhan desert once, and I''m not familiar with the route. I need help finding the route. And the people I need to live near the edge of the almuhan desert. After we arrive, we need to visit and ask the other party to lead the way. Just let this person lead the way, need to give a certain amount of money. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered directly.


    Just pay a little money, you can cross the whole almuhan desert, all this is worth it.The army continued on their way to the almuhan desert.


    Two days later, the army was less than half an hour away from the almuhan desert. Even now, there is little vegetation and few villages.


    The army was temporarily stationed.


    With Zhang Xiu and a group of soldiers, libengen quickly went to the place where the people he knew lived.


    While walking, Li bengen introduced the situation to Zhang Xiu.


    He knew a man named ould who lived on the edge of the almuhan desert for generations. After walking for half an hour, they finally arrived at the place where Wilde lived. In this area, there are more vegetation, a lot of shrubs and some vegetation. Only in such places can there be water.


    Li Yuan came to the door and knocked on it.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock at the door.


    Soon after, the door opened and a thin, bearded, dark, sunken middle-aged man came out. But this person''s age, also some old.


    This is ould.


    When he saw libengen, he was puzzled and even more alert, and said, "who are you looking for?"


    Rigan said, "we are here to ask you to lead us across the almuhan desert. I''ve been looking for you before, and you''ve led me across the almuhan desert. This time, I hope you will lead us through the almuhan desert


    When he heard this, the alert on his face faded.


    It''s something he does all the time.


    From time to time, he was asked to lead the way, from which he could earn money.


    "Since you are a regular customer, you should know that I have to be paid to lead the way. If you want me to lead the way for nothing, you can''t. After all, there are many dangers in the almuhan desert


    "No problem, as long as you can cross it, it''s a small thing," said liebengen


    Wurde''s eyes swept over Zhang Xiu. Seeing that Zhang Xiu was dressed in extraordinary clothes, he said, "if you want me to take you, you''ll get ten taels of gold this time."


    Reuben frowned.


    He used to, it was across the almuhan desert, know the price. This time, the price is much higher than that of Israel. However, in the root did not make up his mind, eyes turned, fell on the body behind Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "ten taels of gold is ten taels of gold. It''s not a problem. As long as you take us across the almuhan desert, I can afford ten taels of gold. "


    "Cheerfulness!"


    When he heard this, Wilde had a smile on his face.


    This time, I made a lot of money.


    In fact, he also judged according to Zhang Xiu''s face, because the momentum of Zhang Xiu was extraordinary. Such a person, must be a rich and noble generation, so he just opened his mouth.


    Zhang Xiu said, "since it''s decided, let''s go."


    "No problem, no problem!"


    Wurde immediately packed up, took some supplies, and followed Zhang Xiu to the direction of the army. When wurde came to the barracks, he saw the troops around Zhang Xiu, especially the powerful people with black hair and yellow skin, and suddenly said, "you, are you the army of Daqin?"


    For Daqin, wuld also knew.


    Guishuang''s army led more than 200000 troops to kill Daqin. After entering Dunhuang, they were finally killed by Daqin and lost their armour, so that the army was completely destroyed. Guishuang''s emperor also fled back.


    The whole western region knows the power of Daqin.


    Daqin is stronger than Kushan.


    So when he saw the troops of the Qin Dynasty, wuld''s face changed slightly, and his face showed a look of fear. After all, he is an ordinary man. If he is killed, he will die in vain.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "yes, this is the army of the Qin Dynasty. Our army of Daqin, entering the mountain country, is to wipe out Kushan. Revenge for the people who died in the mountain country. "


    Wuld nodded and said nothing.


    There was still some uneasiness in his eyes.


    Worry about your own safety.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "wuld, as long as you take my troops of Daqin and smoothly cross the almuhan desert, I will still give you ten taels of gold. Besides, if you''re familiar with going west, I can still give you more money. "


    "Really?"


    Wilder was overjoyed.


    This is an opportunity.


    When he was young, he used to be a businessman, doing business everywhere. He knew the situation of the western regions like the back of his hand. It''s easy for him to lead the way.


    Zhang Xiu said: "nature is true, if you can give more suggestions to help the Qin army. Even I, Daqin, can give you some official positions. "


    "I did it!"


    Wilder answered directly.


    He doesn''t care whether it''s true or not. Anyway, try it first. After all, it''s an opportunity. If he meets the real one, it''s carp crossing the dragon''s gate. From then on, he has to live in poverty.This is an opportunity.


    Wurde also had contact with the Han people in the Central Plains. There is a saying in the Central Plains called seeking wealth in danger. For ould, this time, although there is considerable risk, it is also an opportunity.


    He wants to fight.


    Zhang Xiu praised: "yes, you won''t regret today''s decision." Immediately, Zhang Xiu asked: "we are now close to the almuhan desert. When are we going to start? "

 Chapter 1239

    Wurde said in a deep voice: "I''ll tell you, we''re going to start early in the morning. It''s getting dark now, so it''s not suitable to start. Especially at night, the wind and sand are strong, the temperature is low, and it is very dangerous to drive at night. So now, we can only take a break. Wait till tomorrow morning, and then go on your way


    After a pause, ould continued: "please rest assured that you can cross the almuhan desert from here and drive at full speed, which is less than one day. Although there are certain risks, I am familiar with the road and the danger is not great. Especially the road I know, there is no real desert, just some desert, the road is still easy to walk


    Zhang Xiu said: "I believe you, and I hope you can show your value!"


    "Please don''t worry, I''ll take care of it this time," he said in a deep voice


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said nothing more.


    The night is getting dark.


    Soldiers in the army didn''t make a fire to cook. After all, these places are relatively remote and there is little firewood. It''s difficult to make a fire to cook by relying on these bushes, so they use flour cakes to satisfy their hunger.


    Ould and libengen were close together.


    Wurde looked at the position of Zhang Xiu.


    There was a touch of cunning in his eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "my Lord, the noble man of the Qin Dynasty, I don''t think ordinary people can have the bearing. Do you know what his real identity is? It''s a valiant general of Daqin, or a noble man of Daqin. "


    "You shouldn''t ask, wilder," said liebengen. Because once you know more, you may lose out in the end. Ignorance is bliss, understand? "


    "I understand! Understand


    Wilder nodded one after another, with a cautious look in his eyes.


    Through the inquiry just now, he judged the identity of Daqin noble. He was definitely not an ordinary person, but a real noble. So wurde''s heart is also vivid, hoping to show his value and get the appreciation of Zhang Xiu.


    A night without words.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, wilder woke up early. Like all the soldiers in the army, he ate dry food. Wurde would eat whatever the soldiers in the army ate, just like the soldiers in the Qin army.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on wurde and said, "wurde, lead the way!"


    "Yes


    Ould answered immediately.


    At that moment, wurde took people on the road quickly, but wurde found that even if he ran at full speed, he could not match the speed of the Qin soldiers.


    The soldiers of Qin army were in excellent physical condition and very fast. Wurde went all out and couldn''t keep up with the rhythm. Wurde''s physical fitness is good, but compared with the soldiers of Daqin, it is much worse.


    Zhang Xiu sees this, let a person lead a war horse to wuld, then let wuld slightly accelerate. As Wilder''s speed increased, the army''s speed increased again.


    Fortunately, wurde was familiar with the journey. He hardly encountered any real sandstorms or deserts along the way. They were all deserts, so it was easy to catch up.


    But as the sun rose, the earth became hot.


    The air is getting drier.


    These soldiers on the road at high speed were sweating because they were on the road at high speed. Now the sun is rising, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, soldiers are sweating, fast consumption of water in the body.


    Many soldiers take out the water pipe they are carrying while they are on their way.


    These water pipes are all made of bamboo.


    Each bamboo tube can hold a lot of water.


    Wurde saw many soldiers drinking water. Suddenly, he stopped his horses and slowed down the speed of driving. When Zhang Xiu rode up from behind, he immediately reported: "noble man, water is life to drive in the desert."


    "More water, more strength. So in the desert, even if you are thirsty, you have to endure it. If you can''t help it, you can''t drink indiscriminately. "


    "Especially now that we are in the almuhan desert, we have at least four hours to go from here to the next place where there is water. It''s not so easy to stick to these four hours. "


    "Especially when the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the soldiers in the army drink water quickly and sweat quickly. In the end, they may not be able to persist. Please order that soldiers in the army be forbidden to drink water at will. "


    There was an eager look in Wilde''s eyes.


    He didn''t want the soldiers in the army, because the water source was affected. After all, he now hopes to make use of the soldiers of Daqin, and then make contributions, so as to get a chance to ascend to the sky.


    So ould quickly reminded.


    Zhang Xiu nodded when she heard wuld''s words. This is a timely reminder from ould. Once a soldier is thirsty, he will drink water quickly. However, when a person is running fast, his sweat will flow continuously. If he does not pay attention to saving, it is certainly not enough to take some water from the water pipe, so he must be careful.


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order to the soldiers to save water.Only in this way can we persist for a long time.


    When he saw that the soldiers who used to drink a lot of water turned into small ones, many people stopped drinking water at all, but tried their best to stick to it. He was also relieved.


    At least I was persuaded.


    The team is still on its way.


    Towards noon, the soldiers who were rushing all the way were already quite tired, especially the sweat kept flowing down. They had already wet their clothes and made their whole body sticky and uncomfortable.


    However, the officers and men in the army did not have any complaints.


    They all gritted their teeth and held on.


    Zhang Xiu is going to order the soldiers to rest for a while. At lunch time, ould comes to make a suggestion again and says to go forward for another half an hour. Because half an hour later, there was a forest. Although there is no water source, the soldiers can take a rest in order to eat some dry food and drink some water.


    Zhang Xiu will not refuse anyone who comes, so she will answer directly.


    It took the team another half hour to stop and rest.


    Soldiers were hiding in the woods.


    In fact, the so-called forest, which is a small number of two people tall, is not a big tree. In such a desert, it is good to have such a forest. Even if there is no water, at least take a rest.


    After a break of two quarters of an hour, the team continued on its way.


    This time I''m on my way, I''m still on my way at full speed.


    Every soldier in the army is sweating and tired. But their heart, but also calculate the distance. It''s only a hundred Li''s journey. For them, it won''t take long to go at full speed, so all the soldiers are trying their best to go ahead.


    In particular, although there was a long way to go and it was a little bit more difficult, with wurde leading the way, it was still smooth in the end. Especially in the middle of the way, there is a water grass area.


    Here, the soldiers began to draw water.


    Everyone drank a lot of water and went to the bamboo tube to get enough water.


    After a little rest, the team went on.


    Originally, according to Zhang Xiu''s plan, even at night, she still had to go on her way.


    But wurde suggested that the last part of the journey is actually far away from the most core desert area. It is no longer the place where wind and sand gather. There are even some weeds around, which can drive all night.


    Zhang Xiu took the advice directly, and the team rushed all night. Before arriving late at night, she finally crossed the whole almuhan desert, which is also far away from the mountain country of Moshan city.


    At this moment, ould was also relieved.


    It''s done.


    Finally came out.


    Wurde''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Xiu not far away. There was a look of expectation in his eyes.


    He waited for Zhang Xiu to fulfill his promise.

 Chapter 1240

    Zhang Xiu is aware of the air of wurde, he waved, wurde came to Zhang Xiu''s side, bowed, a flattering appearance, said: "noble, you greet me, what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "since I have promised you, I will never go back."


    "Come on, get the gold."


    Zhang Xiu held out her hand, and immediately a soldier handed over the gold.


    Zhang Xiu gave the gold to wuld and said, "the first money I promised you, I will give it to you. Next, we will talk about what we mentioned before. I will continue to go east, and the next step is to cross the state of Yuli. You are willing to continue to lead the way. "


    "Yes, I do!"


    Wurde quickly put away the gold, nodded busily and said, "don''t worry, my dear. I''m not only familiar with the roads in the mountain country, but also with the Yuli country and other countries farther west. You will never make a mistake when you come to me for business. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "as long as you can do it, I will give you a generous reward."


    "Thank you very much."


    I''m glad, wurde.


    He thought he had an opportunity.


    Seize the present opportunity, and he will have a chance to prosper. So wurde turned his eyes and said, "my dear, I know a piece of news that may be useful to you. I don''t know. Would you like to hear it?"


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu said.


    Wilder''s eyes became sharper and sharper, and he said, "villains have traveled to and from different countries, and they know the situation of different countries. Yuli state is located in the west of the mountain state. There are many hills, sand and stones in the territory. Although there is no desert, there are many hills. Many rolling mountains are inaccessible in many places. It is in this area that there is a hidden place, in which there are weapons workshops of Kushan state. "


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and asked, "are you sure?"


    "Sure!"


    Wilder replied solemnly.


    "If it''s false, then I''m willing to be killed," he said with a determined look. Dear man, I swear by my life that this is absolutely true. "


    Zhang Xiu patted wurde on the shoulder and asked, "wurde, do you know the scale of the Kushan weapons workshop in the mountains?"


    "When I came in by chance, I thought about it and got to know it," said ould. So, know something. Guishuang''s weapons workshop covers an area of nearly 1000 mu, which is extremely wide. However, there are also many garrisons. Even if you want to win, I''m afraid it''s not easy


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said, "no matter what, there is always a chance. How many days are we away from the weapon workshop in Yuli? "


    "At full speed, two days at most," ould replied. A little slower, about three days. However, in accordance with the style of the noble, not willing to expose the whereabouts, has been taking the path. So it''s going to have to be slower. It''s estimated that it will take four to five days to get there. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go. Let''s go to the weapons workshop of Kushan people."


    "Good!"


    Wilder answered at once.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "wuld, as long as this time''s work is completed, money can''t be measured. As long as it''s done, I''ll let you become an official in Daqin, and the official position is not low, so that you will have no worries about food and clothing. Do you understand? "


    "Thank you very much for your help," he said. Please rest assured that I will do my best. I promise that all the routes will not make any mistakes. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you just understand."


    He said solemnly, "my dear, I will accomplish it. I will live up to my high expectations."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved her hand, wuld stepped back to rest.


    Wang Yue followed Zhang Xiu with a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, this wuld has some skills. He is even familiar with the whole journey of the western regions. In particular, it provides such an important piece of information. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is luck."


    Wang Yue said, "it''s your majesty, Hong Fu Qi Tian."


    Liebengen said: "Your Majesty, I have now completed the task of helping the Qin army through the whole mountain country. Do you want me to accompany you? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s necessary. Do you want to get rid of it?"


    "No, no!"


    Li bengen was worried about being killed by Zhang Xiu, so he quickly refused. Up to now, he can only follow Zhang Xiu.


    It''s good to survive.


    As for the glory and wealth that Zhang Xiu promised, Li bengen didn''t think about it at all.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Li bengen''s appearance, knew what Li bengen thought, and said: "now you are allowed to leave. In case of leakage of information, I can''t afford the consequences. So now, you must follow me. Of course, you can rest assured. When you return to the territory of Daqin, when the war is over, I promise you that I will never let it go. You can''t be without your splendor. "When liebengen heard this, he was very happy.


    In fact, he was worried that Zhang Xiu would not admit it, but he did not dare to mention it. Now, Zhang Xiu takes the initiative to say that she will give him the promise. So, there''s no more worry for libengen.


    "Thank you, Ron."


    In his heart, he was very happy. Now he was relieved.


    Finally, there''s no need to worry.


    After liebengen retired, everyone took a rest.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Early in the morning, Zhang Xiu''s army had already had breakfast and began to set out. The army continued to march to the state of Yuli, especially led by wurde. The road was smooth without any obstruction.


    According to wurde''s plan, it took about four days, but with the full speed of the whole army, it arrived in Yuli in three days, close to the production site of the weapons workshop.


    All the troops led by Zhang Xiu are hidden.


    There was no exposure.


    But Zhang Xiu called wuld and asked, "wuld, now we are close to the area of weapon making workshop. This area, surrounded by mountains, is full of rolling hills. Now that you are familiar with the terrain, do you know the way in and out? "


    "I know!"


    Oscar Wilde nodded and said, "there''s only one way, my dear. There is only one way to enter or leave, and there is no other reason. "


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, arrange sentry to inquire immediately. Before evening, we have to send back detailed information about the valley. "


    "Yes


    Wang Yue turned to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu did this in order to make preparations. On the one hand, it would be easier if wurde led the way. However, before marching forward, we also need to send people to inquire about the situation, so as not to be black eyed.


    The team stopped to recuperate.


    In the evening, the sentinel who went out to inquire about the information also came back and reported the situation of the mountains to Zhang Xiu. It is true that, as wuld said, there is only one road to go in and out, especially surrounded by mountains. The geographical location is very hidden and it is not easy to find the location.


    When Zhang Xiu got the exact news, she began to laugh.


    This time, it hit Kushan again.


    Wipe out the weapon production sites of Kushan in the western regions. In this way, even if the troops of Kushan enter the western regions, they will not be able to get weapons supplies from this place.


    Zhang Xiu did not delay, immediately ordered the troops.


    As the army marched forward, all the soldiers held a piece in their mouths, and all the horses wrapped their hooves to make sure that there was no sound coming out, so as not to disturb the snake. The army approached quietly. Half an hour later, the army led by Zhang Xiu entered the valley and saw the weapon workshop below.


    The weapon workshop in the valley is a big stronghold.


    In the stockade, the fire is shining


    because you look down from the hillside, you can clearly see that there are soldiers patrolling in the stockade, and the gate of the stockade is also guarded by troops.


    The whole camp is heavily defended.

 Chapter 1241

    Lu Bu half squatted, followed Zhang Xiu, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the camp of Kushan people has a very strict defense. Such a weapons workshop is hard to win easily. "


    "Look carefully, the west side of the camp, and the east side of the camp."


    "There are troops in both locations."


    "Even if we look down from the mountain, it''s a little far away, but we can still see the dark crowd. There are still people patrolling in the evening, which shows that the guard is very strong. "


    Lu Bu sighed and said helplessly: "the general will roughly estimate that there are at least 3000 Kushan soldiers in this weapon workshop. These three thousand troops are here. It will be very difficult for us to enter and seize the camp quietly. And once you enter, you can''t take down all the Kushan people. Someone must escape, and the news will leak at that time. "


    Shamoko squatted aside.


    He doesn''t care.


    He''s just fighting.


    After listening to Lu Bu''s words, Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "Fengxian, don''t worry. We''ve just arrived. Since we don''t have the right opportunity, we''ll wait a little longer. "


    "What we need to do now is to be steady."


    "In a word, you can''t reveal your whereabouts."


    "Even I would rather give up attacking this weapon workshop than reveal my whereabouts."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "however, in the current situation, we have no chance to seize this weapon workshop. Send the order down, and we''ll retreat at once. "


    "Here it is


    The herald got the order. Let''s go down immediately.


    Under the command, the soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command quickly evacuated and hid not far away. Even so, Zhang Xiu still arranges sentinel, staring at the situation of the weapons workshop.


    Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed at the foot of a mountain.


    This place is quite hidden.


    The army was stationed.


    After everything was arranged properly, Wang Yue sat down beside Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, we have to go to Shule country. After all, there are gold mines in Shule. If you go late, I''m afraid something will happen to the gold mine. Now, we are all stranded in the state of Yuli. Is it worth building a small workshop? "


    Zhang Xiu was silent for a moment and explained: "although at the moment, it will delay some time. But I''m not willing to leave now. Wait a second, and observe the weapons workshop of the Kushan people to see if there is still a chance. "


    Wang Yue said: "wait a few days?"


    "Three days!"


    Zhang Xiu had a sharp look in her eyes and said: "wait three days. If we can''t find a chance to fight in these three days, we''ll leave the state of Yuli. After winning the gold mine, turn back and take away this weapon workshop. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang responded, the more he said. Three days is not a long time, or a short time. If you stay for three days, you can get rid of this weapons workshop, which is also worth it.


    The troops are temporarily stationed.


    The soldiers in the army also took the opportunity to rest.


    It''s not easy for all the officers and men to go on this road. Now it''s hard to get a rest.


    In the army rest, Zhang Xiu also has nothing to do, has been waiting for the news. On the first day, the sentinel sent back information, but none of it was valuable. It was useless.


    The message sent back the next day was the same.


    On the third day, on this day, there was a strong wind, dark clouds gathered, and a swift and short downpour made the dry air a little wetter.


    Fortunately, Zhang Xiu and the soldiers under her command found shelter from the rain and avoided the torrential rain.


    After the heavy rain, a rainbow appeared in the sky.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the rainbow of seven colors and breathes fresh air. She feels a little lost in her heart. Up to now, no news has been sent back. It seems that he has been waiting for these three days, but still can''t find a chance.


    "Newspaper!"


    Suddenly, a cry came back.


    A sentry Trooper came back.


    The horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, trampled on the water stains, brought up the spray, and the horse ran forward quickly. After a while, the sentry came to Zhang Xiu''s side, turned over and dismounted, and said, "Your Majesty, in the Kushan weapons workshop, there are a group of soldiers, about 500 people, escorting a group of weapons out. These weapons are cannons and some shells. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes suddenly brightened.


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu burst out laughing.


    Laughter, full of joy.


    Wang Yue was puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, why are you laughing?"


    "Opportunity, opportunity."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes twinkled with light, excited: "the opportunity to break the Kushan weapons workshop has come."


    Lu Bu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it''s no surprise that a batch of weapons were escorted out. How did you arrange your plan? "


    Zhang Xiu explained: "since we can''t take the weapon workshop of Kushan people, we will destroy it directly. We intercepted all these guns and then turned them around to bombard the weapons workshop. Since cannons are made in the workshop, there is still a lot of gunpowder. When a shell falls, it will explode. It was not only the workshop, but also the soldiers of KushanLu Bu sighed: "unfortunately, once it''s destroyed, there will be no weapons workshop."


    Zhang xiudao said: "let''s go to the state of Shule. When the war of Shule starts, the news will be sent back to the state of Yuli. If these Kushan people get the news, they can''t leave the workshop to us. Even these people can make trouble. It''s better to take the lead. Even if these weapons are destroyed, it''s a pity, but it''s always like leaving them to the enemy. "


    Lu Bu said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    He agreed with Zhang Xiu''s analysis. In this situation, since it is impossible to seize the weapon workshop quietly, there is only one way to do so, which is to bombard, and it is also thanks to guishuang''s cannons.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers had grenades and mines, but no guns. After all, starting from Dunhuang, it was a long journey, and it was impossible for soldiers to carry cannons.


    Now with these cannons, everything will be easy. Zhang Xiu immediately ordered to mobilize soldiers to set out. Under the leadership of the sentinel, she went to the official road to ambush.


    Although the territory of Yuli is still dominated by deserts, it is not all deserts. Zhang Xiu and his party ambushed in the bushes on both sides of the hillside.


    When the soldiers escorted their weapons and entered the ambush circle, Zhang Xiu gave a decisive order to attack.


    There are not many Kushan soldiers escorting weapons. Surrounded by the army under Zhang Xiu''s command, none of the more than 500 guishuang people in this group could escape, and all of them were killed.


    After counting the battlefield, Zhang Xiu has a bright smile.


    Thirty five guns and some ammunition were escorted by these soldiers. Just in this way, Zhang Xiu was able to use these guns to bomb the weapon workshop of Kushan people.


    After all, Zhang Xiu took the gun and pills and began to go up the mountain. Fortunately, the mountain is not very steep. Even the cannons are quite heavy. After some hard work, they are all sent to the mountain.


    A big gun was set up. The muzzle of the gun aimed at the weapon workshop at the foot of the mountain.


    Thirty five guns were aimed at, and the momentum was appalling.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the line of cannon, the corners of her mouth rose, and a smile came up. This time, he taught these Kushan people a hard lesson, so that they didn''t even know how to die.

 Chapter 1242

    "Ready!"


    Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhang Xiu immediately gave the order.


    In an instant, the soldiers began to load shells. One by one, put all the shells in the bore.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu said again, "light the fire!"


    At the command, the soldier in charge of the ignition immediately handed the torch up.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fuse is getting shorter and shorter as it burns.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, there was a loud noise.


    "Boom! Boom


    One after another, there were thirty-five loud sounds, almost at the same time. Streams of light passed through the air, and in a twinkling of an eye, it was already above the top of the weapon workshop at the foot of the mountain.


    "Boom!!"


    The next moment, the explosion.


    Thirty five shells landed in the weapons workshop and exploded one after another in an instant. Originally, there were countless gunpowder in this weapon workshop. These gunpowder, the most can not see open fire. Now the shell explodes and the gunpowder is ignited, so that the whole weapon workshop turns into a fire in a short time.


    The sound of the explosion was like a tsunami, and it didn''t stop at all.


    There are many Kushan soldiers and craftsmen in this weapon workshop. But these people, even have no chance to escape, in the twinkling of an eye, have been buried in the sea of fire.


    In a flash, the weapons workshop, which used to cover a large area, disappeared on the ground.


    There was only a flash of fire left.


    Wang Yue was very excited and said happily, "Your Majesty, we can easily destroy the Kushan weapons workshop in the mountain without a single soldier. It''s really a great victory."


    Lu Bu was also very excited and said: "Your Majesty is still holy. If your majesty doesn''t do it, it will be earth shaking. But this place has turned into a sea of fire. I''m afraid someone will come to investigate soon after the sound of such a shock comes out. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "so we should evacuate as soon as possible."


    Lu Bu asked: "Your Majesty, we are going to evacuate, but what about these cannons? These 35 guns are not a small number, and there are so many ammunition. It''s a pity to throw away these pills now. But it''s not easy to drive with 35 guns. It will slow us down. No matter what, it''s not easy. "


    With a smile in her eyes, Zhang Xiu said: "it seems difficult, but in fact, it''s not difficult. For the time being, we will evacuate with these 35 guns and ammunition. After a certain distance, we will find a suitable place to place the 35 guns and all the ammunition. When we return from Shule, we will take the cannons with us. "


    "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Lu Bu immediately agreed.


    Thirty five cannons, each of which costs a lot. If you give up everything, it''s too violent. It''s the best to take it away now.


    Zhang Xiu immediately sent the order down.


    As the order was issued, the soldiers in the army began to evacuate orderly, and all the artillery and ammunition were also moved out of the mountain.


    The team continued along the official road at the foot of the mountain.


    About half an hour later, wurde suddenly came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Your Majesty, I know where to put the cannons. I''ve walked this road, and I know there''s a suitable place ahead. "


    Now, he also calls Zhang Xiu his majesty.


    At the beginning, wurde was called a noble man, and he didn''t know the identity of Zhang Xiu. But after all, such a long time together, after a period of time, wuld also found something different, see Zhang Xiu''s identity is not general, finally know Zhang Xiu''s identity.


    Zhang xiudao: "what kind of terrain is the location you mentioned?"


    Wurde replied, "tell your majesty, it''s a hilly area more than ten miles from here. There are also dense forests on many hillsides. Just choose a place to place all the guns and ammunition. "


    Lu Bu said, "what if it is found?"


    "No way!"


    "Because the road ahead, the official road for normal walking, is at the foot of the mountain. Moreover, the hillside in front is undulating. Although there are bushes more than half of the people in many places, in fact, no one goes there all the year round. On such a premise, it is safe to place the artillery and ammunition in front of us. "


    After a pause, ould said again: "even if your majesty is not at ease, you can leave a small group of soldiers to guard. In this way, it is safe and impossible to make any mistakes. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu agreed.


    However, he is not very clear about the details. He still needs to go ahead and take a look at the local situation.


    "Lead the way, ould!"


    Zhang Xiu didn''t doubt it, so she ordered immediately.


    "Here it is


    Ould answered immediately.


    His face also appeared excited, because the more credit he made for Zhang Xiu, the more benefits he would get when Zhang Xiu won the whole western regions.So now, wilder is eager to do everything he can to make more contributions.


    Only in this way can we have a foothold.


    The army continued on their way, but without much effort, they reached the position mentioned by ould.


    Zhang Xiu made a personal investigation.


    The location that wuld mentioned is indeed quite secretive. It is safe to put all the cannons here. In particular, Zhang Xiu can overlook the official road under the hillside in the distance from the position where the cannon is hidden. Even if Zhang Xiu wants to, she can arrange a cannon on the mountain and bombard the road under the mountain.


    Although Lu Bu was a strong general, he was actually quite knowledgeable. After a careful look, he said with emotion: "Your Majesty, this is a good position. From here on the mountain, it is enough to guard the passage at the foot of the mountain with the help of cannons. However, it''s not very useful here. After all, we won''t encounter any war in the territory of Yuli state for the time being. "


    Dieurd was not busy, either.


    When he mentioned this place, he didn''t know the geographical location. He just knew that this place could hide artillery, that''s all. Now people say that they can ambush here. Even this place is very good. He agrees.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes flashed a light, immediately mobilized the soldiers, let the soldiers put 35 guns, one by one in the mountain. In addition, Zhang Xiu specially left 300 soldiers to guard here to ensure the safety of the artillery.


    Everything was arranged properly. Without staying, Zhang Xiu marched again and began to march to the border of the state of Yuli. From the location of Zhang Xiu to the border of the state of Yuli, in fact, the distance between the East and the west is no more than 300 Li.


    Yuli is not a big country.


    From the location of Zhang Xiu to the border, the distance is shorter.


    Such a distance, if the full speed of the road, one day is enough to run all.


    However, when the army led by Zhang Xiu approached the border of the state of Yuli, the sentinel in front of him withdrew and quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side, reporting: "Your Majesty, there is a Kushan army on the western border of the state of Yuli. The number of its troops is about 15000. This group of soldiers are coming in our direction. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed when she heard the speech.


    He was thinking about how to deal with it.


    With this group of Kushan''s troops, there may be problems. Of course, Zhang Xiu can choose to lead the army to hide. In this way, she will avoid the coming Kushan army.


    The problem is that once Zhang Xiu avoids, if this group of Kushan''s troops go to the location of the weapons workshop, they will be alert when they find out the situation of the weapons workshop.


    At that time, the situation is not easy to deal with.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s concern.


    Zhang Xiu''s heart, thinking quickly. He must solve this group of Kushan army completely and quietly. Then, he rushed to the front line to Shule country.

 Chapter 1243

    In the territory of the state of Yuli, there are many officials.


    An army is coming fast.


    This army, all dressed in coarse cloth, bare arms and straw sandals, is on its way. It''s too easy to wear thick linen shoes because it''s too hot to wear thick linen.


    The leader of this army is Shoutuo.


    In the Kushan Empire, this man was born in a poor family. According to the situation of Kushan, shoutuoluo was a person at the bottom of the society. But because of the wise eyes of the great Kushan emperor, Wei sudiva promoted Shoutuo, which made Shoutuo grow rapidly in the army and become a strong general in the army.


    When Shoutuo entered the state of Yuli, he took these 15000 soldiers to the weapons workshop in the territory of Yuli, and then led the troops to settle down.


    He''s going to be a surprise.


    At the beginning of the war, Shoutuo would not send troops or take part in the war. Because the mission that Vasudeva gave to Shoutuo was to wait until the war between the two sides was in full swing, and then Shoutuo would come out with the army.


    This is the positioning of the 15000 elite soldiers in Shoutuo.


    Shoutuo is not satisfied with his task.


    He didn''t want to hide.


    As a matter of fact, before Wei sudiva entered Dunhuang with a large army, Shoutuo did not take part in the war because he worked in China. Now, as she was preparing for the war with Zhang Xiu in China, she arranged the battle of Shoutuo and lurked to the state of Yuli.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the front line sentinel Pegasus came.


    The sentinel quickly came to Shoutuo and said, "general, an army has been found in the front line. Its number, about a thousand people, depending on the situation, seems to be a special army responsible for information. This army is not from the western regions. They are all people with black hair and yellow skin. They should be soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Shoutuo''s eyebrows rise, quite surprised.


    Unexpectedly, in the state of Yuli, an army subordinate to the Qin Dynasty was found.


    As the sentinel said, the number of troops in this army is small and the troops are insufficient. Under such a premise, it is very likely that the more than 1000 soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are all here to inquire about information.


    In Shoutuo''s heart, there is no vigilance or worry. His heart, only banter and smile, because for Shoutuo, more than a thousand people''s team, that is ants in general.


    A little of his hand is enough to crush each other.


    It''s easy enough to win.


    "General, since more than 1000 Qin troops are coming to kill us, we should stop at once and wait here. Just wait for the Qin army to come, then rush up and completely subdue each other. "


    At this time, someone suggested.


    This man is thin with sharp eyes. His name is Saro, and he is the commander of Shoutuo.


    Shoutuo is a very independent person.


    When he heard sarrow''s words, he thought about it, shook his head and said, "it''s not appropriate to wait for the hare. In particular, this style is not suitable for this general. What''s more, it was just a thousand odd sentinels of the Qin army. Now that they have sneaked into the state of Yuli, they are discovered by the general, and they want to wipe him out completely. "


    "The order goes on, and the whole army moves at full speed."


    Shoutuo gave the order.


    Fifteen thousand troops, no longer scruple, go all out.


    With more than 10000 troops in shoutuoluo, Zhang Xiuzheng was on his way with more than 1000 soldiers. Now there are only a thousand soldiers left with him.


    There are more than 2000 soldiers in the rear.


    This is to deal with the army of shoutuoluo.


    Lure the enemy in and ambush them again.


    While Zhang Xiu was on her way, she was waiting for the sentinel to send back the news, and the distance between the two sides was getting closer.


    Thirty miles!


    Twenty miles!


    When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than ten miles, Zhang Xiu had ordered his soldiers to be on guard and wait for his orders at any time. But Rao is so, Zhang Xiu still did not make the gesture of discovering the Kushan army, as if still did not find.


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than five li, Zhang Xiu suddenly ordered to retreat.


    The army evacuated quickly.


    This situation was soon discovered by Shoutuo''s sentinel and reported to Shoutuo. When Shoutuo got the news, he burst into laughter, filled with pride.


    Laughter, more banter.


    It''s like a cat and a mouse playing hide and seek.


    Saro has been following Shoutuo for some years. He is familiar with Shoutuo''s style and temperament, so he suggested: "general, I''m afraid we should be more careful in the current situation. I think we should not be careless. "


    Shoutuo said: "Saro, you are too conservative and too cautious. You have to know that the army of the Qin Dynasty is still at the border of the mountain state, and it is impossible to appear in the state of Yuli. ""So this army is a sentry."


    "It''s for information."


    "There''s nothing else."


    Shoutuoluo said in a deep voice: "since the other side is only a sentinel, why not pursue with all one''s strength? Qin''s army will be the vanguard of the other side and our morale will be weakened


    "The great emperor fought with the Qin army in Dunhuang and lost his general at the expense of his troops. There was a lot of anger in his heart."


    "Now that we have won the war, when the news comes back to China, the great emperor will surely treat me differently. At that time, I will be able to go up to a higher level again with this achievement. "


    "Whether it is for my own sake or for the sake of exterminating the enemy, we should continue to send troops."


    "Take the lightning."


    Shoutuoluo said in a deep voice: "military master, do you know what I mean?"


    After listening to Shoutuo''s words, Saro understood it, and he did not dissuade him any more. He said with a straight face: "the general''s consideration is really reasonable. This time, I think about Bu Zhou, and I think it is not comprehensive. In this war, I support sending troops. "


    He laughed when he went to see him.


    He convinced Saro.


    Shoutuo ordered: "Herald, go on, the army will advance at full speed, and pursue more than 1000 Qin soldiers in front of us. This time, we will capture each other alive, so that none of the Qin soldiers can escape. "


    "Here it is


    When the herald got the order, he immediately informed him.


    The army speeded up the speed of the road and pursued quickly.


    Shoutuo led the troops to pursue, and the speed increased. This situation was also detected by the sentry sent by Zhang Xiu. The sentry expedited his horse and went back to Zhang Xiu, then quickly reported: "Your Majesty, the Kushan army has speeded up. The more than 10000 Kushan troops are going all out to pursue us. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she just laughed.


    I''m hooked!


    This Kushan army has finally taken the bait.


    The reason why he retreated with more than 1000 soldiers was to let the other side pursue him. Now, they''re on their way at full speed. Then, Zhang Xiu can hang the other side, let the other side constantly on the way, close to the location of the ambush.


    The speed of Zhang Xiu''s retreat was not particularly fast, so that she could hang the Shoutuo steadily. As time goes by, they gradually approach the location of Zhang Xiu''s ambush.


    When Zhang Xiu approached the ambush circle, she began to slow down and let Shoutuo catch up. When the distance between the two sides narrowed to less than a mile, Zhang Xiu had completely entered the ambush circle.


    This moment of Zhang Xiu, the corner of the mouth raised a successful smile.

 Chapter 1244

    Zhang Xiu with more than a thousand soldiers on the way, the rear of a mile is the location of shoutuoluo Kushan army.


    Now all the people led by Shoutuo have entered the ambush circle. However, Zhang Xiu didn''t stop for the moment. He ordered to drive at full speed. In a short time, he and shoutuoluo were half a mile away, making the distance between them one and a half miles away.


    Rao is so, still can see the rear after the Kushan army.


    Zhang Xiu looked up to the back, not far from the mountain.


    Smile on the corner of the mouth.


    It''s time for the cannons.


    Zhang Xiu no longer hesitated, decisively ordered: "blow the trumpet, order the artillery to open fire."


    "Woo! Woo


    All of a sudden, the sound of the trumpet suddenly rang out. With the sound of the horn, Wang Yue sat down on the hillside in front of him. He decisively ordered: "fire, fire."


    The soldiers immediately lit the fuse, and the next moment, the artillery made a tremendous noise.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    There were thirty-five voices.


    Thirty five shells passed through the air. At the next moment, they had already landed in the crowd led by Shoutuo.


    "Boom!"


    The shells exploded one after another, the soil flew, and the soldiers'' bodies were blown out. In particular, the number of soldiers led by Shoutuo was large and dense. When a shell burst, dozens of soldiers were killed.


    Dense shells, continuous explosions.


    There are countless soldiers killed and wounded in Kushan.


    Shoutuo is confused at this moment.


    He thought that this pursuit should be very smooth, and it would be very easy. However, when he saw that he was going to pursue him, he was bombarded and his head was blank for a short time.


    "Be careful, general!"


    Suddenly, a roar came.


    A small school flew over and threw the shoutuoluo to the ground.


    "Boom!"


    The next moment the shell exploded, Shoutuo was all right, but the small school that pressed him was bombarded by artillery, still killed and lost his breath.


    At the moment, shells are still flying, falling in the crowd one after another, killing one after another Kushan soldiers.


    Shoutuo recovered with fierce eyes.


    Damn it!


    Damn it!


    His 15000 soldiers were ambushed and suffered heavy losses. It''s unforgivable that such a thing happened to him.


    Shoutuo gnaws his teeth and looks at Saro not far away. Fortunately, Saro is still OK, but there is some dirt splashed on his body, some dirty.


    Shoutuo said with concern: "Saro, are you ok?"


    "Nothing!"


    Saro answered.


    With worry in his eyes, he suggested in a loud voice, "general, we''ve been ambushed. The more than 1000 Qin troops are not simple. Withdraw. We will withdraw immediately. As long as you retreat for a certain distance, you can avoid the bombardment of artillery. "


    "Fart!"


    Shoutuo yelled.


    At this moment, Shoutuo turned his eyes to the front, saw the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty who were still retreating, and said, "these soldiers of the Qin army are only a thousand people. Even if they are ambushed, they are not afraid. Retreat can avoid the bombardment of shells, so forward, the same can avoid the bombardment of shells


    Saro was sorry to hear that.


    We need to pursue. This is a deeper and deeper call.


    Saro thought that this group of Qin army was not simple, and was probably the first to calculate. However, Shoutuo didn''t listen to persuasion at all, so that Saro couldn''t help it.


    When Shoutuo ordered to continue to advance, Saro could only follow.


    The team braved the shelling and went on.


    After running for nearly half a mile, at this time, the bombing of shells gradually began to subside. After all, after the bamboo slips were closer, the shells could not be bombed at close range.


    Rao is like this, but the army under Shoutuo''s command has lost a lot. The previous artillery bombardment has damaged at least 2000 people of the Kushan army.


    Even though many of the soldiers around Shoutuo are in good health, many of them are injured, and they are even more afraid of being ambushed.


    Shoutuo roars: "boys, have we ever been ambushed? The 15000 of us are invincible on the battlefield. "


    "We must not give up in this war. If you look at the soldiers of the Qin army, they are still not far ahead. They are only a little more than a mile away from us. "


    "Catch up with me and kill the Qin army."


    "Revenge, we want revenge."


    "Don''t take revenge, swear not to be a man."


    Shoutuo gritted his teeth and tried to roar: "sons, the opportunity to make contributions is right in front of us. As long as you take this group of Qin soldiers, we will make a great contribution. Even though the number of Qin soldiers is small, guishuang has never captured Qin soldiers. Once we win and the news is sent back home, you will also be rewarded. Go ahead, the opportunity is just around the corner. "When the soldiers in the army heard this, their eyes gradually brightened.


    There is a lot of fighting spirit in my eyes.


    Every soldier has been encouraged by Shoutuo.


    As shoutuoluo said, today, even in the battle between Kushan and Daqin, even though some Qin soldiers were killed in the battlefield, Kushan was defeated again and again from beginning to end.


    If they can win this battle, even though there are not many Qin soldiers, as long as they win, the tone will be different. If the news is sent back to China, they will be rewarded.


    The soldiers under the command of shoutuoluo, keep up their spirits and continue to pursue.


    Both sides chased and fled, and ran a distance.


    Zhang Xiu''s army is getting closer and closer to the army led by Shoutuo in the rear. When approaching the location of the cannon, Zhang Xiu looked back and saw that he was still a little more than a mile away from Shoutuo.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu suddenly ordered: "stop!"


    With his order issued, more than a thousand soldiers around, no longer continue to move forward, the army stopped and quickly arrayed. One thousand soldiers, though small in number, are full of fighting spirit, which is totally different from the army that has been fleeing.


    There are also some accidents.


    The Qin army stopped.


    He pursued for a distance. To be careful, when he was half a mile away from the army led by Zhang Xiu, he raised his hand and ordered the soldiers to stop, but his eyes fell on the Qin army. He swept the soldiers of Qin army one by one, and finally fixed his eyes on Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu wore different clothes and was the commander of the army.


    Shoutuoluo bit his teeth and said, "run away, why don''t you run away. Now, none of you can escape. You immediately throw away your weapons and surrender. I can consider not killing you. If you continue to escape, then, I don''t mind playing cat and mouse, but you will all die. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    Shoutuo said, "what are you laughing at?"


    After laughing, Zhang Xiu examined Shoutuo and said, "what I laugh at is that you are so stupid and arrogant. Previously, I took the initiative to stop the retreat, so you can catch up. If I keep evacuating, you can''t catch up. Don''t you know the trick? "


    When Shoutuo heard this, he felt a thump in his heart.


    Ambush!


    Shoutuo looked around and didn''t see any ambush. His guess was not correct.


    Shoutuo suppressed his impetuous mood and said, "even if you lay an ambush and set up a net, it''s difficult for you, more than 1000 people, to succeed in the end. In the end, you will lose. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can have a try. I''ll wait for you here."


    Shoutuoluo a listen, frown.


    It was the fact that the Qin army did not retreat any more that made it suspicious for him to advance or retreat.

 Chapter 1245

    Seeing Shoutuo, Zhang Xiu didn''t dare to move forward. With a sneer, she said, "why, the grand general of guishuang is carrying more than 10000 elite soldiers. See my more than 1000 soldiers, but dare not go forward? "


    Shoutuo has a black face and a serious look.


    Saro followed Shoutuo with a worried face. He said: "general, since the general of the Qin army dares to stop, he must still rely on him. Let''s go. Let''s go at once. "


    As a military strategist, Saro is always cautious and does not like to take risks. Now, when Zhang Xiu stops with her troops and no longer retreats, salow thinks that there must be risks in this battle.


    Shoutuo drew at the corner of his mouth.


    Retreat!


    How can he retreat in the face of battle!


    He met more than 1000 Qin soldiers, but at the last moment, he was scared to withdraw. If this news is sent back to Kushan, I''m afraid he will be shameless to lead the army. Even Vasudeva, knowing the news, would have to remove him from office.


    This is unbearable for Shoutuo.


    When there were only a thousand Qin troops in front, even if there might be an ambush in front, Shoutuo would not stop. So after thinking about it, Shoutuo decisively ordered: "Harry formation, you lead 3000 elite soldiers and kill them for me."


    Harry array is a valiant general under the command of Shoutuo.


    He was holding an iron bar and his eyes were as big as a brass bell. He is now topless and only wears a pair of straw sandals.


    It looks rough and crude.


    Harry shook the iron bar in his hand and ordered: "boys, kill me!"


    His officers and men went to war immediately.


    More than 3000 soldiers, with people fast forward. Just as these Kushan troops were moving forward, soldiers were lying in ambush on the slope not far from the official road and in the bush.


    The leader is Lu Bu.


    He stares at the more than 3000 Kushan soldiers who are marching forward, and sees them getting closer to Zhang Xiu''s position. His look of expectation in his eyes is more and more intense.


    "General Lu, the army of Kushan is less than 100 steps away from your majesty."


    One side of the soldiers, mouth to remind.


    Lu Bu''s eyes were sharp and he said, "don''t worry, wait a second. When the other side is less than 30 steps away from your Majesty''s army, pull the lead


    "Yes


    The soldiers were ordered to stop talking.


    The distance between Harry array and Zhang Xiu is getting closer and closer. At this time, Harry array is not worried any more from the beginning to now.


    Because the other party is very likely to be pretending momentum.


    "Kill me!"


    Harry picked up the iron bar and ordered again.


    When Harry led the soldiers to prepare for the charge, Zhang Xiu suddenly said a word: "explosion!"


    "Boom! Boom


    One after another of the explosions, suddenly sounded.


    The location of the explosion was exactly where the soldiers led by the Harry formation were. Originally, there were more than 3000 soldiers around the Harry formation, but now, after a series of explosions, they are all falling to the ground, causing heavy losses.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth.


    This is a big meal he prepared for the Kushan army. There are mines buried underground. Such mines are not detonated by trampling, but by pulling the lead wire by hiding Lu Bu and others, causing the explosion of mines.


    In this way, the soldiers of Kushan died on a large scale.


    Now, Harry is also a little dizzy. Fortunately, he was not bombed, so he is safe. But when Harry looked around, although there were still some soldiers left under his command, in fact, there were no more than a thousand soldiers. There are bodies all around. They were all killed just now.


    Harry array saw Zhang Xiu''s side, but also more than a thousand people. Even if he lost one third of his troops, he could still win as long as he rushed up.


    Harry exclaimed: "boys, go with me! Go ahead and kill the enemy. "


    Only the remaining soldiers of Kushan, shaking their heads twice, regained their spirits, and then rushed out with the Harry formation again with weapons in hand. Just when they began to sprint, Zhang Xiu stepped back and ordered, "Bomb thrower, attack!"


    Under the command, more than a hundred soldiers rushed out and lined up quickly and neatly.


    More than 100 soldiers were divided into three rows, with about 30 people in each row. See a soldier, took out the grenade, quickly pull the lead, grenade ignition smoke, then quickly throw forward. A grenade, in the air across an arc, in the twinkling of an eye, fell in the crowd where the Harry formation.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    One after another, the explosion sounds.


    One grenade exploded in the crowd, and the soldiers around the Harry formation were still rushing forward. But this wave of grenades thrown over, Harry''s soldiers blink of an eye, they lost more than half.


    There are less than 300 troops around us.


    They all look embarrassed.Many people are covered with mud.


    At the moment, Harry also gulped down a mouthful of saliva, with a look of horror on his face.


    There are too many means for the Qin army.


    However, after the shock, Harry suddenly showed a look of Madness on his face and exclaimed: "boys, the other party''s weapons are useless. Now, let''s go up and crush each other. "


    "Kill


    Harry did not flinch and charged again.


    He was the first to go forward.


    In particular, today, the distance with Zhang Xiu has narrowed to less than 20 steps. With such a short distance, it is not difficult for Harry to win.


    Even though there are less than 300 people in Harry''s team, he can win the first World War. As long as the battle is started and the Qin army is held back, the troops in the rear will continue to kill, and he will have a chance to make contributions.


    When Harry sprints, Zhang Xiu still smiles.


    He still let the bombers continue to throw grenades, wave after wave of grenades exploded, once again killed some of the soldiers under the command of the Harry formation. When the distance was less than ten steps, it was not easy to throw grenades. However, there were less than 200 soldiers left, only more than 100 elite soldiers.


    "Shamoko, it''s up to you."


    Zhang Xiu tone indifferent, issued the order.


    As the order was issued, shamoko held the bone of Tribulus terrestris in his hand and patted his horse on the back of his crotch. People had already killed like an arrow from the string. As he sprinted, he cried out: "kill!"


    Behind him, there are more than 600 soldiers.


    This is to use up all our forces to directly destroy the other side and solve the problem in a short time.


    Speaking late, then fast, shamoko meets Harry in a twinkling of an eye. Shamoko swings the iron thistle in his hand and suddenly falls down on Harry.


    Harry array is also a veteran of the battlefield, he saw shamoko''s weapons fall, sneer, boldly shouldered the iron bar to fight. He wants to defeat the other side, then kill and crush the Qin army.


    "Dang!"


    It''s a violent collision, and it''s going to ring.


    Shamoko was not affected at all, but the cheeks on Harry''s face began to tremble. In particular, Harry''s hand holding the iron bar, under the impact of the anti shock force, the palm immediately tore the tiger''s mouth, even more unable to hold the iron bar.


    After the iron rod was knocked off, the bone flower of Tribulus terrestris continued to fall.


    "Bang!"


    The huge Tribulus terrestris was smashed on Harry''s head.


    In a flash, blood spattered.


    That round rolling head, as if watermelon class broken, red and white splashed on the ground. Harry''s body, also in this instant, flopped to the ground.


    After shamoko killed Harry face to face, he drove his horse back and forth. Where he passed, the soldiers of Kushan were killed constantly, but those who were killed by shamoko were bloody and miserable.


    More than 100 Kushan soldiers were wiped out in a flash.


    He was killed clean.


    After shamoko killed the man, he withdrew with the soldiers. However, Zhang Xiu''s eyes looked ahead and fell on Shoutuo again. With a faint smile in his mouth, he exclaimed: "guishuang people, do you want to fight again? All of these 3000 soldiers have been killed. I''ll see how many 3000 people you still have. "


    He clenched his fists when he went to Dalton.


    His face was livid, his eyes were shining with fierce anger, and he was more unwilling.


    He was unwilling to fail.

 Chapter 1246

    Saro glanced at Shoutuo and was more worried. He quickly suggested: "general, the general of Daqin is too cunning. He did it on purpose. He deliberately urged you to send troops. General, please don''t fall into the trap. "


    Shoutuo said: "Saro, the Qin army in front of us really has means. However, he has only a thousand people. If I don''t win more than 1000 people, how can I face the Chinese people and explain to the emperor? "


    Saro sighed.


    Shoutuo once again said: "previously, there was an explosion on the ground. Now, there must be no more explosions. The same method, this time, can no longer work. So this time, we will win


    "Albaz!"


    Shoutuo immediately ordered.


    "The end will be here!"


    Albaz immediately stood up and saluted.


    He''s not big, he''s even skinny. He is also a valiant general under the command of Shoutuo. Even albaz did not have a strong body, unable to take the lead in the front. But in fact, albaz is extremely fierce vision, can clearly judge the battlefield situation.


    Shoutuoluo said: "take your soldiers to kill and destroy the Qin army''s defense line."


    "Yes


    Albaz responded immediately.


    For albaz, with the previous test of Harry''s array, the danger is much less. As long as he can successfully rush into the crowd of Daqin soldiers, he has more than 3000 soldiers under his command. With a force of more than 3000 people, albaz has great confidence in winning the war.


    Shoutuo said, "let''s go!"


    "Send out


    Albaz immediately ordered.


    With albaz''s order, 3000 Kushan soldiers launched another attack. The speed of these people moving forward is quite fast. In a twinkling of an eye, they are less than 50 steps away from Zhang Xiu''s position.


    Zhang Xiu looks at this scene, the corner of her mouth rises, and draws an arc.


    Fifty steps!


    If the Kushan people think that at this point, they are completely ready to take the opportunity to kill, then they are very wrong. Zhang Xiu''s layout has always been one link after another, and will never give the other party any chance to seize the loopholes.


    "Blast!"


    Zhang Xiu murmured.


    With Zhang Xiu''s voice falling, in an instant, within the range of 50 steps in front of him, all of a sudden, albaz and his 3000 soldiers were exploded again.


    "Boom! Boom


    One after another, explosions began.


    I saw the earth flying on the official road, the corpses were thrown up and down, and countless screams echoed.


    The soldiers under the command of albaz and the soldiers of the former Harry formation are on the same way. They are all on the road in a dense way, so that when the soldiers under the command of albaz encounter the explosion of a mine, countless people die in the explosion.


    The explosion was still operated by Lu Bu.


    In fact, there are mines on this official road, and all mines are ignited by pulling the lead wire. And different areas have different leads.


    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement for Lv Bu is that if the troops of Kushan rush up together, they will directly detonate the bombing. If the attack is staged, it will detonate from the area closest to Zhang Xiu.


    The reason for this is to paralyze Shoutuo. After the first explosion, Shoutuo thought about the position close to Zhang Xiu. There was no land mine explosion, so he would lower his vigilance.


    In this way, the second batch of mines can work again.


    Just as it is now.


    In the area 50 steps away from Zhang Xiu, under the continuous explosion of mines, the soldiers under albaz''s command died countless people. The original team of 3000 people disappeared, two-thirds of them, leaving only more than 1000 people.


    In this case, the situation of Harry''s array is repeated.


    As soon as albaz turned his head, he knew that his troops could not move forward. The reason is simple, the other side not only has weapons to explode underground, but also can throw weapons to bomb.


    If his army rushes forward, it will also be bombed, so even if albaz is the same as Harry''s, even if it is close to Zhang Xiu, it will not escape the result of being killed.


    For this reason, albaz did not move forward.


    The team stopped where it was.


    Albaz looked back and exclaimed, "general, we are short of troops. I also ask the general to dispatch another batch of troops to facilitate the final general''s strong attack. "


    Shoutuo''s face is cold and solemn.


    In fact, there are not many troops around him, that is, more than 6000. After all, from the very beginning, they were shelled and lost two or three thousand troops. Now two attacks, he mobilized 6000 troops to fight, now the strength around, only 6000 people.


    With such strength, Shoutuo is slightly worried.


    But Shoutuo is a little lucky that the Qin army has only a small number of troops.


    Shoutuo has a chance to win.


    As soon as Shoutuo gritted his teeth, he stopped delaying and dispatching troops in batches. He ordered: "if you go down, you will be killed. There are many rewards for killing the Qin army. ""Kill


    Shoutuo gave the order of general attack.


    With the attack of Shoutuo, his soldiers were hesitant. The reason is very simple, one by one Kushan soldiers are worried that they will be killed by mines if they encounter them again.


    All teams, move forward together.


    A moment later, Shoutuo''s team was less than 130 steps away from Zhang Xiu. The black army advanced and crossed the official road. However, in order to reduce the losses, Shoutuo let the soldiers spread out and move forward to avoid stepping on mines.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu exclaimed: "Lv Bu, detonate all of them! Detonate it for me


    He has a very high voice.


    In the voice, there is more excitement.


    This time, all the soldiers under the command of Shoutuo will be bombed by mines.


    Lu Bu hides in the Bush, hears Zhang Xiu''s order, is also immediately orders. In an instant, the soldiers along the official road quickly pulled the lead. The next moment, the explosion on the official road sounded again.


    Even the soldiers under the command of Shoutuo, many people scattered, but also suffered huge losses. After all, in order to ambush Shoutuo, Zhang Xiu took out half of the mines, all of which were arranged on the official road.


    As a result, there are so many mines.


    Successive explosions, more and more violent.


    One body fell to the ground, one by one guishuang soldiers kept running. The faces were full of pain and panic. All the soldiers of Kushan have been scared.


    Qin people are terrible.


    It''s frightening.


    There were more than 6000 elite members of Shoutuo''s own team. But in this wave of explosion, the soldiers of shoutuoluo were damaged by nearly two-thirds, leaving less than 2000 people. There were too many casualties!


    Even Shoutuo can''t afford such a loss. He looked around for Saro''s shadow, but he didn''t find it. At this moment, Shoutuo''s heart clapped.


    Saro''s done!


    It must have been blown up.


    Shoutuo gnawed his teeth, but he still did not retreat. He said again: "sons, the means of the Qin people have been used up. Kill me, kill the people of Qin, and avenge my brother. "


    "Kill


    "Kill me!"


    Shoutuo''s continuous shouts and shouts. The soldiers under his command rushed forward quickly, soon joined with albaz, and then went on to directly defeat Zhang Xiu''s army in front of him.


    In the face of killing nearly 3000 guishuang people, Zhang Xiu is still not at all flustered. He once again ordered his grenadiers to come forward, but this time, it was not 100 people, but 500 people.


    Five hundred soldiers took out the grenade, pulled out the fuse and ignited it. Then they threw the grenade out of their arms.


    Grenades fell across the air.


    "Boom! Boom


    Explosions, one after another.


    This continuous sound of explosion detonated the battlefield again. Many Kushan soldiers died under grenades.


    The number of deaths and injuries is increasing.


    Shoutuo''s face is even more iron green. After the explosion, his soldiers are getting closer and closer to Zhang Xiu. However, the number of soldiers under his command decreased again. Shoutuo did not expect that he would be so miserable. But even though there were less than 2000 soldiers under the command of shoutuoluo, he still did not retreat and said again, "kill, kill me."


    He is still determined to fight.


    He didn''t choose to give up.

 Chapter 1247

    After the order of Shoutuo was given, the soldiers under his command rushed forward quickly, and the distance from Zhang Xiu was getting closer and closer.


    Twenty steps!


    Ten steps!


    When the distance between the two sides was shortened to ten steps, Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand and took the overlord''s gun from the hands of the soldiers on one side. With a cold look on her face, she ordered: "the whole army will follow me! Today is the day to destroy the soldiers of Kushan


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    As soon as he patted the horse on the back, the horse in his crotch was like an arrow away from the string, and he entered the battlefield like lightning.


    "Kill me, boys


    Shamoko, holding the flower of Tribulus terrestris, also cried out. In the twinkling of an eye, he caught up with Zhang Xiu. He also got involved in the battlefield and began to kill everywhere.


    The 1000 soldiers who followed Zhang Xiu and shamoko were like hungry wolves, whining and rushing.


    Everyone involved in the battlefield, both sides launched a white-edged battle.


    There''s no trick in such a fight.


    It''s all about fighting for life.


    If you are strong, you can survive; if you are weak, you can only be killed.


    In such a fight, the number of troops under the command of Shoutuo is superior. However, these soldiers were bombarded by artillery, mines and hand grenades in turn, causing great losses, affecting their morale and greatly weakening their combat effectiveness.


    As a result, even if there were more troops under the command of Shoutuo, their combat power was insufficient. When the two sides started fighting, the troops under the command of Shoutuo soon got into trouble.


    Shoutuo is not willing to see this happen. The only thing he can do is to catch the thief and the king.


    Kill the general of Qin army and turn the defeat around.


    Shoutuoluo took a deep breath, clenched his teeth, raised his sword and went straight to Zhang Xiu.


    "Take your life!"


    Shoutuo drink low, full of war.


    He spurted his horse quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, he was in front of Zhang Xiu. The sword he swung turned into a streamer in the air and was cut down.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Zhang Xiu shakes her head and smiles.


    He picked up the overlord gun in his hand immediately, and his strength burst out. The gun had a sharp whistling sound, and he was approaching the sword.


    When two weapons collided, the power burst out, especially on the overlord gun, which had more turbulent and unparalleled power, and immediately poured into the sword. This great power was irresistible. As soon as Shoutuo''s face changed, he felt numb in his hand and the sword flew out.


    The overlord gun continued to move forward. With a bang, it hit the side of Shoutuo. With a click, the ribs under Shoutuo''s ribs were broken. Under the impact of this force, Zizhan immediately flew out and fell to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu riding forward, Overlord gun in the air a turn like lightning stab out.


    One shot out, very fast.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp point of the gun, easily, has penetrated the heart of the Shoutuo.


    "Poof!"


    The tip of the gun was drawn out, bringing out a shed of blood.


    Shoutuoluo''s body, after two convulsions, suddenly there was no movement, has died under Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun.


    "Kill


    After Zhang Xiu killed shoutuoluo, she rushed again.


    In this war, Zhang Xiu did not intend to stay alive, because even if he captured this group of Kushan soldiers, there was no place to settle. In particular, Zhang Xiu''s trip to Shule was a secret operation, and it was impossible to take these prisoners with her.


    Therefore, it can only be the total slaughter.


    When the news of the death of shoutuoluo came out, the soldiers of Kushan, who were already in low morale, were in chaos. One by one, they didn''t want to fight and began to retreat or surrender.


    Zhang Xiu and Sha Moke took people to fight and killed them all the way, ignoring those who surrendered.


    All the way, it was extremely cruel.


    All the way, it was brutal.


    As a result, the soldiers of Kushan were all as cold as cicadas, constantly retreating. But when they were retreating, all of a sudden, on the official road in the rear, Lu Bu led the soldiers to kill them.


    "Sons, kill with me!"


    Lu Bu took Fang Tian''s painting halberd and led the army out.


    Even if Lu Bu cut off his retreat from the rear, he still left 600 soldiers behind. These 600 soldiers are the last line of defense to prevent fish from leaving.


    When Lv Bu and Zhang Xiu began to encircle, guishuang soldiers were killed and injured faster.


    The killing continues.


    Casualties are still increasing.


    The chilly soldiers of Kushan, like headless flies, were even more flustered and at a loss. They were willing to surrender, but the Qin army was not willing to accept it. They fought to the death, but they couldn''t resist it.


    Desperation spread among the soldiers of Kushan.


    The killing is still spreading in despair.


    The killing continues.


    The number of soldiers in Kushan is less and less. There are no more than a hundred left. The last hundred of them are the most effective. But in the face of the joint siege of Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu, shamoko and others, even if these people are elite, they still can''t resist, but just delay a little time.In the end, all the Kushan soldiers were slaughtered and none was left.


    Zhang Xiu looks around at a corpse on the ground and orders Lu Bu and shamoko to take people to kill again. All the soldiers of Kushan lying on the ground will be mended.


    No matter what kind of situation it is, we will make up for it all.


    It''s about making sure no one lives.


    After Lu Bu and shamoko had repaired all the Kushan soldiers, they collected all the Kushan soldiers'' bodies. Pile up a corpse, ignite a fire, and burn all the corpses completely.


    After finishing all this, Zhang Xiu ordered to enter the army.


    Continue to the direction of Shule country.


    However, with Zhang Xiu, wurde and libengen, when they look at Zhang Xiu, there is more horror and fear in their eyes. Because this time the scene of dealing with the Kushan soldiers deeply shocked them.


    You know, Shoutuo led a total of 15000 troops. Under the bombardment of cannons, mines and hand grenades, the soldiers of Kushan were killed and wounded countless times. At last, all the soldiers of Kushan were slaughtered, and no one was left.


    Such a bloody scene is shocking.


    In fact, such a war, Zhang Xiu''s army, the loss is not much.


    After a fight, he just lost less than 200 people. After all, the initial fighting was carried out with cannons, grenades and mines, and finally the face-to-face fighting was involved. But this kind of fighting, guishuang''s morale collapsed and its combat effectiveness weakened. It had no courage to fight, so the damage caused to Zhang Xiu''s soldiers was not great.


    Zhang Xiu noticed the air of libengen and wurde, but she didn''t care.


    It''s a good thing that two people have awe.


    Can make two people more cooperative.


    In September, the army entered the territory of Shule. In autumn and September, the weather in Shule is still cool. Even at night, when the air conditioning attacks, it is still quite cold.


    After entering the state of Shule, Zhang Xiu found a hidden place and settled down for the time being. Then she arranged sentries to inquire about the gold mines. After all, after such a long time, there may be changes in the gold mine. We need to find out the situation again, and then consider sending troops.

 Chapter 1248

    Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts have always been hidden in the territory of Shule state. Fortunately, there was a certain amount of dry food in the army, especially when they arrived in the state of Shule, and liebengen and wurde came forward to buy food, so the soldiers were not short of meat and food.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu stayed in the hiding Valley, bored reading, a sentinel quickly returned.


    The sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, our people have found the detailed location of the gold mine. However, because the defense of this gold mine is really strict. Now, we have no way to sneak in and judge the situation in the gold mine. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned and said, "what''s the matter? This gold mine is not so hard to find! "


    Sentinel said: "before, when we explored gold mines, the defense of gold mines was not as strict as it is now. Even the entrance to the gold mine has changed, extending about two miles


    "It''s these two miles that keep us away. Because the entrance to the gold mine is two miles away, it is the main road to the gold mine. Anyone who wants to enter the gold mine must go through the entrance of today. "


    "This entrance is a narrow road. Because there are troops stationed inside, it''s even more difficult for us to get involved, and we can''t make a breakthrough. "


    The sentinel knelt down on one knee and said, "we are incompetent. Please punish us."


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    I didn''t expect that some changes have taken place as soon as possible. Zhang Xiu speculated in her heart that since the location of the gold mine had changed, it was most likely the situation of the mountain state, Yuli state and other places. In addition, the eastern part of the western regions was attacked, which led to the increase of guishuang''s control over the gold mine.


    The vein of gold mine is very broad. It''s not hard to sneak in. But now, the army of Kushan controls the entrance, which changes the situation.


    Zhang Xiu also uses her brain to think carefully.


    After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Xiu made a general plan, but this plan also needs to go by herself to find out the situation of the entrance of the gold mine, and then make a detailed plan.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Shi ah!"


    "Yes


    Shia answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately take ten royal guards and follow me to the location of the gold mine. Let''s go and make some inquiries, and then work out the plan of action. "


    "Here it is


    Shia immediately responded.


    Lu Bu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, if you go in person, you will inevitably be in danger. It''s easier to have problems, especially with fewer people around. It is clear to the general that it is difficult to dissuade his majesty. Therefore, the general thinks that in addition to ten royal guards, your majesty should also bring a team of soldiers to ensure your Majesty''s safety. "


    "No need."


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and replied, "if I take these soldiers with me, my action will be affected. Now I''m going to ask for information. I''ll hide my whereabouts. Besides, no one knows me, so you don''t have to worry. "


    Seeing this, Lu Bu said nothing more.


    After making a simple arrangement, Zhang Xiu takes Shi a and ten royal guards to the location of the gold mine under the guidance of the sentinel.


    This gold mine was originally in a mountain, but the mountain is quite steep, especially if you want to enter the gold mine, you have to enter from the place where the Kushan army is stationed.


    In this way, we will not be able to make a detour or find a place. Zhang Xiu arrived with people, not to continue close, but in the distance a large number of observation of the topography of this place.


    This entrance, on both sides of the mountain, only the entrance.


    Outside the entrance is also a rolling hillside.


    It''s just that the mountain is not steep, and it''s quite desert, so few people go there.


    Zhang Xiu looked at it carefully and found that it was not easy to enter quietly. Because in and out, are Kushan soldiers. Ordinary people, in particular, are not allowed to enter. Only those who are specially responsible for mining can enter.


    Zhang Xiu had a plan before.


    Now take a look, his inner plan quickly improved. In a short time, Zhang Xiu has perfected the plan. He looked at Shi''a and said, "let''s go, let''s go back."


    Shi a follows Zhang Xiu and gets up to retreat.


    When he got back to the camp, it was already dark. Seeing that Zhang Xiu had come back, Lv Bu quickly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, what''s the situation in this gold mine?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "what we can do now is to make a plan to sneak in. For the rest, we can''t make a judgment for the time being. Next, what we need to do is to sneak in and inquire about the situation. "


    Lu Bu asked, "what is your majesty going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "next, we will do this, do this..."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the detailed plan. After finishing the whole plan, Zhang Xiu said, "now, do you understand?"


    "I see!"


    Lu Bu and Wang Yue should go down together.Because we have to take action tonight, and this matter requires the cooperation of two people.


    Zhang Xiu said: "take advantage of the darkness, let''s move."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue and LV budeling mobilized their soldiers and began to take action.


    One night without words, the next day, in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu got up early. After eating dry food, he took a team of royal guards and ran quickly to the entrance of the gold mine. This time Zhang Xiu acted, there were not many people around him, more than 30 people.


    Lu Bu, together with shamoko and more than 200 people, quietly went to the west of the entrance. In less than two quarters of an hour, the party arrived at their destination.


    This area is on the middle of the mountain.


    It''s not hard to climb from here.


    But it is difficult to get into the position of the gold mine. On the one hand, it is difficult to go to the gold mine after climbing; on the other hand, it takes a long time and is easy to be found.


    There are not many people here.


    Lu Bu looked around and said, "everyone, go your own way. Two quarters of an hour later is the time for action. I hope you can speed up and not delay


    "Here it is


    Shamoko and the rest of the soldiers, with their fists clasped, then dispersed.


    In fact, Lu Bu''s task is to wait in place. As soon as the time comes, let the soldiers take out the torches to light the fire. Now time goes by little, a quarter of an hour goes by in a flash.


    Entering the countdown to the ignition, Lu Bu waited patiently.


    "It''s time, general."


    At this time, a soldier began to remind.


    Lu Bu took a deep breath, then decisively ordered: "ignition."


    With a single order, the soldiers took out the torches and quickly lit the powder, mines and grenades buried here. This batch of gunpowder is reconstituted. As for mines and hand grenades, they are original.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fire flashed and the wires burned fast.


    Seeing this, Lu Bu quickly took the soldiers to the distance. More than 30 steps later, Lu Bu stopped. At this time, the ignition was over.


    "Boom!"


    There was a loud bang, suddenly.


    "Boom!"


    Then, the sound of explosions, a series of gunpowder explosion, deafening, and even the mountain began to tremor. Standing in the distance, Lu Bu and others felt the power of gunpowder explosion, and their bodies swayed slightly.


    Seeing this, Lu Bu put a smile on his lips and said, "here we go!"


    Not long after his voice fell, he saw that he was not far away from Lubu, and then there was a roaring explosion. The sound of the explosion is like beating a drum to spread flowers. It is constantly transmitted to the distance. The sound is one after another, and the momentum is frightening.


    After all this, Lubu, shamoko and others have begun to evacuate separately.


    At the entrance of Zhang Xiu, he heard the explosion in the distance, and his eyes had fallen on the entrance. The entrance to the gold mine is guarded by a team of soldiers, about a hundred of them.

 Chapter 1249

    The sound of the explosion shocked the whole gold mine. Because of this explosion, it''s really shocking. One after another, the explosions made the soldiers at the entrance of the gold mine panic.


    Fortunately, there was no explosion at the entrance.


    Rao is so, but the explosion nearby is also worrying.


    So the small school stationed at the entrance immediately ordered: "go, follow me to see what happened. They all pull out their swords and are ready to fight at any time. "


    "Yes


    Soldiers at the entrance, answer immediately.


    Everyone left in a swarm and rushed to the site of the explosion.


    This scene falls in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and Zhang Xiu''s mouth raises a smile. The reason why he kept causing explosions in other places was to attract soldiers standing guard at the entrance on the one hand, and to mobilize the troops in the gold mine on the other hand, so as to facilitate Zhang Xiu''s operation.


    Zhang Xiu and other garrisoned soldiers of Kushan went away. As soon as they waved, they brought people in quickly.


    After entering the gold mine, Zhang Xiu takes people to go inside quickly.


    It was a smooth journey.


    It was easy to arrive at the center of the gold mine. However, the gold mines in this area are not particularly dense. Many mining soldiers, sparsely engaged in their own mining, are mining gold.


    Zhang Xiu quietly touched in the past, took a person.


    The miners are from Shule.


    He was very shabby, skinny and thin. These people in Shule are not free men, they are captured. They have to mine every day, and they don''t eat very well, so they are not healthy.


    After Zhang Xiu inquired, she learned about this person.


    The name of this Shule native is Jin Lingyun.


    In his early years, he was a common people. Later, guishuang''s army entered the state of Shule. After destroying the state of Shule, they arrested the common people for mining, so Jin Lingyun was caught in the gold mine.


    Through the elaboration of Jin Lingyun, Zhang Xiu clearly understood the situation in the gold mine.


    There are 3000 soldiers in this gold mine.


    All the soldiers in Kushan are well armed, and each of them has excellent spirit. The five thousand Kushan soldiers were stationed close to the camp where all the Shule people were imprisoned.


    There are more than 5000 people in the mine. They are all skin and bones, and their bodies and bones are very weak.


    Five thousand soldiers in custody.


    When Zhang Xiu learned about this situation, she began to use her mind. Because the people of Shule are too tired to fight, it is impossible to use them.


    Moreover, there are too many people to talk about. Once there are too many people to leak information, it is extremely dangerous.


    Zhang Xiu thought quickly. He thought about it and asked, "Jin Lingyun, there are nearly ten thousand people in this gold mine. So many people consume a lot of water every day. Where is the water source in this mountain? "


    Jin Lingyun replied: "tell me, we have dug a lot of wells in the gold mine where we were imprisoned. In particular, the location of the water well chosen is very good. The water well drilled can provide food and drink for all of us. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    That''s good.


    Since there is water, then find water, you can operate. If we can''t start from the water source, Zhang Xiu won''t stay. She will leave the gold mine and attack with a large army.


    Because there are only 3000 troops stationed in the gold mine.


    Even if there are only seven or eight hundred people under Zhang Xiu''s command, Zhang Xiu dares to fight. But now, knowing each other''s water source, Zhang Xiu wants to use it, especially if other people have been prepared, let alone waste this great opportunity.


    So after Zhang Xiu made a plan, she arranged for people to go back to convey the news.


    And Zhang Xiu takes Jin Lingyun to the camp of mining.


    Walking nearly two quarters of an hour, Zhang Xiu and his party came to the station.


    Jin Lingyun suddenly said: "dare to ask, sir, you have brought dozens of people to the camp. How are you going to deal with the 3000 Kushan troops? It''s almost impossible to destroy the Kushan people only by your strength. "


    "I will start from the water source," Zhang said


    Jin Lingyun replied, "are you going to poison all Kushan people with poison?"


    "It''s not as good as poisoning."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "this time I came into the mining area, I brought enough sweat medicine. This medicine is mixed in the water, as long as the Kushan people drink water and eat rice, they must be drowsy. These people, when they all fall asleep, can do things. "


    After hearing this, Jin Lingyun was relieved.


    It''s just sweat medicine.


    In case of poison, these wells will be completely unusable.


    Jin Lingyun once again said: "it''s no problem for adults to use Mongolian medicine. In particular, every meal is eaten first by the army of Kushan. After the Kushan people finish eating, we miners in the mining area will eat again. So if you want to take medicine, they will definitely be the first to take it. This is your chance. "Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said: "so, that''s the best."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu took people''s quick action. This time brought the sweat medicine, package after package, regardless of cost into the well, also into the cooking place water storage bucket.


    All the Mongolian medicine was sprinkled into the water, while Zhang Xiu took people to hide.


    By noon, the soldiers of Kushan in the mining area had all begun to withdraw and returned to the garrison. Because at this time, it''s time for all the miners to hand over the gold in exchange for food.


    However, it is the Kushan people who eat first.


    Three thousand Kushan troops returned, and the cook in charge of the kitchen quickly cooked.


    Wait until all the food is ready.


    The smell of meat and rice is gone.


    But it''s not rice, it''s wheat. Even if it can''t compare with rice, in fact, it''s very good for the Kushan soldiers in the mining area.


    There''s meat, after all.


    Guishuang soldiers are not short of food and clothing, nor meat, which is already very good.


    "Dinner''s ready!"


    With a cry, there is a gong. All the soldiers of Kushan stood in line, quickly approached the place where they were eating, and then returned to the place where they were sitting.


    Both food and water were adulterated with sweat medicine. When the soldiers of Kushan ate their food, they were a bit drowsy at first. With the passage of time, some soldiers can''t stand it. They just sit on the ground and sleep in the same place.


    This scene is amazing.


    Plop! Plop!


    One after another, soldiers keep falling.


    After all, the soldiers of Kushan fell down. Even the last diner stood up behind the scenes and was ready to speak, but after all, he used rice and drank soup. After two shakes, he fell to the ground with a plop.


    After the soldiers of guishuang fell, Zhang Xiu came out with people.


    He looked not far away, standing in a circle around him, one by one rickety, frail miners, then said: "I''m from Daqin, and I''m here to expel Kushan. Now all the Kushan soldiers here have fallen down. Go and get the ropes and tie up all the Kushans. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "you are free now. You''re no longer in custody, you''re no longer being treated badly. Since then, you''ve been decent people. "


    WOW!!


    All the miners cheered up.


    They were very excited.


    They are free.


    They can go home.


    But these miners didn''t disobey Zhang Xiu''s orders. In fact, they have long hated the Kushan people. So the people of Shule country quickly tied up all the Kushan people.


    After all this, many people are out of breath.


    After all, I''m busy all day. I can''t bear to have no food for the time being.


    Zhang Xiu saw that all the Kushan soldiers were tied up, with a smile on her face. Now, he has won this gold mine of Shule country, and then he can use this gold mine to plan.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers to shoot the arrow, and with the arrow, a troop on the outskirts of the gold mine soon went on their way. In a short time, they entered the gold mine.


    This army is the army of Zhang Xiu.


    Led by Lu Bu.


    Lu Bu came to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, what shall we do next?"


    When all the soldiers arrived, Zhang Xiu took control of the gold mine. Zhang Xiu ordered people to take over the weapons and clothes of the Kushan people, and turned them into slaves. In particular, Zhang Xiu adopted the way of the Kushan people to the miners, holding the food of these soldiers.


    In this way, even if there are many people in Kushan, they can''t make trouble because of the huge physical consumption. We can''t be merciful to the people of Kushan. But for the people of Shule country, these innocent miners, Zhang Xiu did not treat them badly.


    Zhang Xiu called everyone together again and said in a deep voice, "you have made great contributions to mining gold in the mountains now."


    "I promised to let you go."


    "It''s true."


    "If you want to go home, I''ll give you a sum of money. Go home and live your own life. Those who are willing to stay and continue to mine here will be paid a high price. "


    With a soft smile on her face, Zhang Xiu continued: "so now, you make your own choice. I''ll treat those who are willing to stay. I will not stop those who want to leave. "


    When the people of Shule heard this, they were all elated.


    They were very excited.


    Whether you leave or stay, you can get money, which is the best. With Zhang Xiu''s orders, many people in Shule state expressed their willingness to stay and continue mining. After all, it''s best to have a high salary and eat excrement.


    After all, there are only a few people who leave.


    In the gold mine, everything soon returned to normal operation.However, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu. Wang Yue looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, we are now in control of this gold mine. But next, there must be an army of kusana. How can we meet it then? After all, we don''t have many troops. In particular, we are too small to have a foothold. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s not difficult, because we are here to block the news for the time being. When the news is thoroughly spread, our rear army will soon arrive. "


    Wang Yue said: "in that case, I arranged the royal guards to urge the rear army to speed up their journey."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.

 Chapter 1250

    Kushan in China.


    In the south, the city of Sheraton.


    This is the south of Kushan. It''s hotter in August now. Thirty miles southwest of the city is a vast prairie forest. At the edge of this area, there is a not wide bamboo house, which is clean and elegant.


    Even though the weather is quite hot, it is cool in the bamboo house. After all, there is a stream flowing around the bamboo house to take away the summer heat. There are big trees to shade the sun.


    In the bamboo house, there is an old man.


    This man is in his early fifties, but his face has been covered with wrinkles and even his back has some rickets due to years of wind and frost. Especially the others are quite tall. Now they are bent and look rather old.


    This person is dumethin.


    It''s a giant elephant.


    Dumishin has a unique skill, that is, by playing the flute to make a sound, he can control his elephants and make them act according to his ideas.


    It''s a terrible art.


    Because on the battlefield, these elephants are enough to destroy everything.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, from outside the bamboo house.


    Dumishin took a sip of tea and said, "come in!"


    Dumishin doesn''t have many hobbies, but likes to drink tea. Especially other teas must come from China. Because this kind of tea is authentic, so it doesn''t taste too bad.


    Creak!


    The door of the bamboo house was pushed open.


    One of the attendants came in, bowed and bowed, and said, "Lord dumethin, the great emperor of vesuvata asked to see you. Now, the great emperor is waiting outside the forest for your reception. "


    "Please


    Give me a command.


    He''s just a giant elephant keeper. He has some means to control the giant elephant. When it comes to governing other places, or marching and fighting, he does not have much ability. Therefore, as soon as Dushen heard that Vasudeva was coming, he cheered up and was a little nervous.


    After all, Vasudeva is the great Kushan and the most honorable person.


    Mishin dare not neglect anyone like this.


    Soon after, Vasudeva entered the bamboo house. After Vasudeva sat down, he said with a smile on her face, "Mr. dumethin, you can really enjoy it! Outside of your bamboo house, there is a brook murmuring; above the bamboo house, there are woods to shade you. The bamboo house is extremely cool. It''s really enviable. "


    After hearing this, dumishen quickly replied: "the great emperor''s praise is a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. If the emperor needs it, he can build a bamboo house like this. "


    "When there is a chance in the future, the emperor must follow suit," she said


    Dumishen said, "I don''t know if the great emperor is coming today, but what''s important?"


    Vasudeva said, "I''m here to hope that Mr. dumethin will come out of the mountain and help me. Now the emperor''s attack on Daqin was blocked. In particular, the army under his command lost hundreds of thousands. My emperor is in trouble now, so I hope that Lord dumishen can mobilize your giant elephant to fight and crush the army of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Du Mishin frowned slightly when he heard the speech.


    The Colossus under his command were all cultivated little by little with great efforts. If you go to war, these Colossus will certainly be damaged.


    Vasudeva said, "Mr. dumethin, if you say something unpleasant, your safe life is due to the safety and strength of kusana. Once Kushan is defeated by Daqin, I''m afraid your stable life will never return. At that time, it may not be able to survive. "


    Du Mishin said with a smile: "the emperor is joking. The Kushan under your governance is powerful. Even if the distant Daqin, strong troops, is not your opponent. Even if he won temporarily, he won by accident. It can''t be true, and it can''t be counted. "


    "You are wrong," said vesuva


    "Why do you say I''m wrong?" he said


    Wei sutiva said, "because Zhang Xiu of the Qin Dynasty won not by chance, but by necessity. Because Zhang Xiu is extremely cunning, so it''s impossible to defend him, and I can''t guess what he thinks. "


    After a pause, Wei sudiva said, "Mr. dumishin doesn''t know Zhang Xiu''s achievements. This piece of Embroidery Rose in the end. It used to be a general who fled everywhere and was precarious. "


    "After the rise of Zhang Xiu, she fought in the East and West, and in the South and North, and in a short time, ended the disputes in the territory of the Qin Dynasty. Since then, the great Qin Dynasty has been unified. This embroidery has never been defeated in all the wars of the unification of the great Qin Dynasty. "


    "When we were at war, Zhang Xiu''s army first won the army led by Modi, and then defeated the army led by ujiutu. In short, we have to be careful when facing Zhang Xiu, and we have to be more careful. "


    Wei sutiva said: "in the face of such Zhang Xiu, even the emperor has no chance to win. So I''m sure Mr. domishen can help me and Kushan win this battle. As long as Zhang Xiu is won in this battle, the power of my Kushan will go further. "After hearing this, he thought about it in his heart.


    As Vasudeva said, kusana needs to be strong, it must trample on the weak. Under such a premise, many things are helpless.


    Weisudiva said again, "Mr. dumishen, I heard that there is a saying in Daqin. If there is no skin, how can hair be attached to it? Once my precious frost is gone, can you still live well? It''s impossible


    "I can promise that when Mr. dumishen helps me defeat the Qin army, then Mr. dumishen wants to be an official. I''ll give you the chance to be an official."


    "If you want to stay in the mountains, I''ll give you a better environment."


    "As a matter of fact, if there was no other way, I would not have come to invite Mr. dumethin. Now, there is really no way. Because the strength of Daqin is no less than ours, even stronger. "


    Vasudeva solemnly said, "on the occasion of the life and death of the kusana, I would like to ask Mr. dumethin to help me."


    After hearing this, Dushen sighed and said, "well, I''ll go with the emperor. However, the elephants under my command don''t go on their way very fast. It takes a long time to go to the front line. "


    She said, "enough, enough. As long as Mr. dumishin is willing to help, that''s enough! "


    After a pause, Vasudeva said, "I don''t know how many colossus Mr. dumethin has raised. How many colossus can take part in this war? "


    "I have 30 colossus to fight," said dummishin


    "Good, good, good!"


    When she heard this, she said three good words in a row. She was very excited.


    Vasudeva herself has a giant elephant, which is really like a hill. If on the battlefield, at the same time, there are 30 Colossus, this force is enough to destroy everything.


    Vasudeva bowed respectfully to dumeishen and said, "thank you, Mr. dumeishen. On behalf of our Kushan Kingdom, thank you."


    Dumishin quickly dodged, shook his head and said, "great emperor, you''re killing me by doing this. In a word, it''s my duty to guard the territory, my people of Kushan. "


    After a pause, dumishen said again, "please return to shewei city for a while. Next, I will mobilize all the Colossus to go to shewei city first, and then go to the northern front with you."


    "No problem!"


    Vasudeva answered immediately.


    For Vasudeva, he now had a plan to defeat the enemy. As long as these 30 colossus take part in the war, they will win in the end.

 Chapter 1251

    After that, she told the commander who had just set out to go back to the camp.


    While Vasudeva was waiting for dumethin, another sentry from the North returned.


    The sentinel entered the barracks and came to visutiva, reporting: "great emperor, news is coming from the north. The Qin army had entered the western regions from Dunhuang. Under the strong offensive of the Qin army, the western regions countries such as shanguo and Khotan were defeated one after another. The army led by Zhang Xiu has the tendency of sweeping the whole western regions. Especially in the western regions, there was no one who could resist Zhang Xiu''s army. "


    Vasudeva heard her cheek twitch.


    Son of a bitch!


    In the western regions, there was no way to stop Zhang Xiu''s army.


    Wei sudiva turned her mind and asked again, "there are gold mines in Shule country in the western regions. In addition, there is a weapons workshop in the territory of Yuli state. Did news ever come back from these two places? "


    The sentry shook his head and said, "the great emperor, our gold mine and weapons workshop, there is no news coming back for the time being. However, there are troops stationed in the gold mine, and the weapons workshop is hidden in the dark, so it is not expected that there will be problems. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Then there was the return of the sentry.


    The sentinel looked a little hasty. He bowed to Wei sudipu and reported: "great emperor, the latest news from the western regions is about the gold mines of Shule state and the weapons workshops of Yuli state."


    "Say it


    Vasudeva spoke.


    The sentry said: "report back to the emperor, our gold mine in Shule state has been controlled by the Qin army. Our weapons workshop in the state of Yuli was also captured. Besides, all the 15000 soldiers led by Shoutuo were wiped out. Our layout in the western regions is over! "


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    "A bunch of trash!"


    When she heard this, she was very angry. She was hopeful about her layout in the western regions. Now, all of them have been destroyed, making it more difficult for him to enter the western regions.


    She said immediately, "summon Seneca to do business."


    "Yes


    The soldiers went to summon at once.


    After a short time, Seneca entered the hall, bowed himself and said, "the great emperor!"


    Wesutiva said, "Seneca, our layout in the western regions has been completely destroyed. Whether it''s the gold mine we control, or our weapons workshop, it''s all taken. This time, the loss is too great. "


    Seneca''s face suddenly changed.


    Gold is material and money.


    Weapon workshop is a combat weapon.


    The loss of these two materials has greatly reduced the power of Kushan.


    Seneca took a deep breath and said, "great emperor, since the gold mine has been lost, the weapons workshop has also been captured. Then there''s no need to think about it, because even thinking about it doesn''t work. Now we have to think about how to win and how to turn the tide around. "


    After a pause, Seneca continued: "with the help of dumethin, the great emperor will surely win the battle."


    Vasudeva was very reluctant.


    He was defeated in Dunhuang, and now the loss in the western regions is so great that he is not reconciled.


    Seneca had been following Vasudeva for more than ten years. He had already found out the nature of Vasudeva and said, "emperor, you don''t have to be so angry. As long as we defeat Daqin with dumishen''s Colossus, it''s easy to get revenge. Then everything will be recovered. "


    With an angry look on her face, she said, "that''s what they say. But in fact, it''s not so easy to deal with Daqin alone. "


    Seneca felt helpless.


    Why should you be angry again when you have said that?


    Seneca knew Vasudeva very well, so he said, "great emperor, let Zhang Xiuxian be arrogant for a while now. But even if Zhang Xiuxian was arrogant for a while, it had no effect. In short, once our people arrive, they can clean up Zhang Xiu. As long as there is a big army led by dumeishen to sweep Daqin, it will be as easy as a palm. "


    Vasudeva was dissatisfied.


    Wei sudiva has no doubt that she will defeat Zhang Xiu in the end.


    He is sure to win.


    However, he is not willing to let Zhang Xiu continue to be arrogant. He wants to quickly destroy Zhang Xiu''s army now.


    She could not vent her anger, but could only suppress it temporarily. Even now, Zhang Xiu''s army has invaded the western regions, but she has no choice but to let it go.


    Fortunately, dumethin soon packed up.


    With thirty elephants, he came to the city of shewei to meet with vesudeva.


    This was the most joyful of all.


    Dushen''s elephant, at last.


    With dumeishen''s elephant, weisudiva once again knocked on the troops all over the country and was ready to go north to fight with Zhang Xiu. Up to now, many people in Kushan have been living a hard life, even in dire straits.The reason is very simple. In recent years, Wei SUDI''s war has brought great burden to the people.


    It is different from Zhang Xiu''s idea of supporting war with war.


    The war of vesudeva could not achieve this goal.


    In fact, if it wasn''t for Zhang Xiu who supported the war with war and used captives to sell it, and because there were sweet potatoes in the country that could starve, the people of the Qin Dynasty would have a good life.


    It''s a pity that Vasudeva can''t manage so much.


    What visutiva wants to do now is to win the war of the western regions.


    When Wei sudiva went north, the royal guards who were lurking in Kushan found the news of Wei sudiva''s going north, and spread the news first.


    After all, Vasudeva did not hide her whereabouts today.


    Thirty elephants can''t hide.


    So the information that the royal guards inquired about was sent to the territory of Shule country first.


    After receiving the news from the royal guards, Wang Yue immediately came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, I just received the news from the royal guards of Kushan kingdom. Vasudeva, as a man, rallied again and led the army northward. This time, the army mobilized by vesudeva was no less than 200000. "


    "Not only that, he also sent 30 colossus to fight."


    After a pause, Wang Yue said: "this giant elephant is just a small mountain, towering and huge. If you put it in the army, one charge is enough to wipe out thousands of troops. Your majesty, Vasudeva, this time, may drive the Colossus to war. "


    "Colossus?"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and she looked thoughtful.


    He was a bit surprised.


    It was not easy for vesudeva to rally 200000 troops and organize a group of giant elephants in such a short time after her last defeat. The one who cared most about embroidery was Zhang Juxiang.


    It''s terrifying.


    However, since we know that the problem is not big, Zhang Xiu can make a response early.


    Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do about it?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not difficult. Now that you know it, it''s easy to deal with the giant elephant of Kushan. I''m curious. What is the current situation of Kushan in China? After all, Kushan, who has been fighting for years, suddenly lost hundreds of thousands of troops in succession. And Vasudeva mobilized more than 200000 troops, which guishuang may not be able to afford. "


    Wang Yue said: "to your majesty, the situation in Kushan is not very good. In many places, there are complaints. According to Wei Chen, this Kushan is likely to cause trouble in China. "


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said: "this is the opportunity. You arrange the royal guards in Kushan to start inciting rebellion. Make sure that the Kushan is in complete disorder. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer.

 Chapter 1252

    Zhang Xiu didn''t stay in Shule for a long time. At the end of September, the army led by Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and others from the rear had already gone to Shule to join Zhang Xiu.


    When the army arrived, Zhang Xiu was confident.


    All the gold mines will be moved back to the rear.


    The army continued to move westward and pushed all the way to destroy the Shache Kingdom, Puli Kingdom and other countries. In a short time, it swept the western regions. In fact, the reason why it can be so smooth also depends on the sweep of vesuvata.


    If it had not been for the war led by Wei sudiva to destroy the western regions, Zhang Xiu would not have been able to obtain the princes and nobles of the western regions. Without these people, things would have been quite difficult. After all, she was not familiar with the road and the local situation.


    It was the existence of these princes and nobles that made the army under Zhang Xiu go on their way smoothly. They could know which road was easy to walk and which road could have a surprising effect.


    When Zhang Xiu led the army into Congling, it was already October.


    The weather is getting colder.


    Congling is the Pamirs Plateau of later generations. This location is the only way to the Silk Road and the main road to Kushan. As long as we guard this important road, we can prevent the Kushan army from entering the western regions.


    Now, Zhang Xiu''s army has entered.


    However, it is extremely difficult for Zhang Xiu''s army to fight in this area, especially in October when it has already begun to snow.


    In view of the freezing weather, Zhang Xiu led the troops to stay.


    The place where the army was stationed was called wangshankou.


    This is a pass.


    The terrain on both sides is very steep. At a glance, it is snowy and hard to climb. Only a road at the foot of the mountain can cross this place and enter Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed here.


    The army camped for the time being.


    Tents were built one by one, and all the soldiers were resting in the camp. Even today''s army supplies coal and stone, but many soldiers are not used to it. After all, the weather is too cold.


    It''s much colder than the Central Plains.


    So many people don''t adapt.


    In particular, if you are stationed in this place, if you run hard for a circle, you will be extremely short of breath, which is unbearable. In many cases, many soldiers do not adapt to this environment.


    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu sits cross legged. In front of her, there is a brazier with coal and stone burning in it. Burning charcoal, dispelling the chill, so that people are no longer cold, become warm a lot.


    "Hoo


    All of a sudden, the tent curtain was lifted.


    But Wang Yue strides in.


    Wang Yue was wearing a cape. When he entered, there was a lot of snow on his shoulders. As soon as he shook his cloak, he gave it to the soldiers in the camp. Then he went straight forward and bowed, "your majesty!"


    Zhang xiudao said, "Wang Yue, come closer and bake. It''s too cold."


    Today''s weather, freezing, if not close to the brazier, it will shiver cold, very uncomfortable.


    Wang Yue came closer to the brazier, knelt down, a pair of dry and thin hands, stretched out to the brazier in front of the fire. Under the influence of this heat, Wang Yue felt comfortable and said, "Your Majesty, it''s really too cold."


    Zhang Xiu said, "this is the normal situation in the western regions."


    After receiving the message, Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, I have just received the news that the army led by vesudiva is rapidly going north. We are ten days away at most


    Zhang xiudao: "there is still a period of rest."


    Now, should we continue to march across the country? The royal guards under my command have already contacted the first town leader after crossing Congling. This man is willing to follow his majesty. As soon as our army arrives, he will open the city and return. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "our army has been stationed for the time being and will not enter any more. On the one hand, it is too cold to enter the army; on the other hand, even if he is willing to follow, the truth is unknown. We are about to start a war with Vasudeva, and because of the weather, we will not take action for the time being. Now, we just need to wait and see. "


    Wang Yue said: "I understand your humble position."


    "Cough! Cough


    At this time, Wang Yue coughed twice, and his cheeks were slightly red. He looked rather uncomfortable.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang Yue stopped for a long time. When he came back, he said, "don''t worry, your majesty. It''s a little cold. It doesn''t matter. In a few days, we will be able to recover. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "have you ever used drugs?"


    Wang Yue said: "it''s just a little cold. It''s not worth mentioning. Your majesty, please rest assured that in a few days, I will recover. Although I am old, I can recover from this minor illness in a few days. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "if you''re in Luoyang, there''s no problem. But in this cold and bitter place in the western regions, you can''t underestimate it, let alone take it lightly. You should pay attention to it.""Somebody


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    At Zhang Xiu''s order, a soldier enters and bows.


    The soldier standing at the gate of the barracks was covered with snow and his cheeks were red with cold.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go and ask the doctors in the army to come!"


    "Here it is


    When the soldier got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    Soon after, the military doctors came in. They came out of the hospital. They were taught by Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo. They had rich experience and strong ability.


    After saluting Zhang Xiu, he examined Wang Yue''s pulse and then said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty''s condition is not in the way. When you go back, I''ll let you boil the medicine for him for two days. After you drink it, you can recover. In the final analysis, it is caused by cold invasion. In fact, this situation is very common in the military. Nowadays, the weather is cold, and many soldiers in the army are infected with wind chill. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows.


    A little dignified.


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and asked, "soldiers infected in the army are very common. It means that many soldiers are infected with wind chill now. Does that mean?"


    "Yes


    The doctor nodded.


    Zhang Xiu said: "when you go back, immediately call in some doctors in the army to investigate and treat the soldiers. All soldiers infected with wind cold must be treated. This disease of wind cold is not complicated to treat. However, once carelessness develops into mutual infection, it is very dangerous. Diseases must be prevented before they occur, and this matter must be properly handled. "


    "I''ll do it


    The doctor bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and the doctor turned around and stepped back.


    However, as soon as the doctor arrived at the gate of the camp, Zhang Xiu stopped the doctor and said, "in addition to investigating the situation of the soldiers in the army, go to the kitchen to inform the cook, and ask them to make ginger soup to dispel the cold for the soldiers. Don''t worry because there are too many generals and too many old generals. The safety of officers and men in the army is the first priority. "


    "I understand


    The doctor nodded solemnly and said, "does your majesty still have orders?"


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    After the doctor turned and retreated, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue again and solemnly said: "Wang Yue, the body is the foundation of everything. If you''re in poor health, you can''t do anything. Although you are a martial arts practitioner, you are strong. But after all, I''m old, so I have to treasure my body. I can''t be careless. "


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s advice, Wang Yue solemnly said, "please rest assured, your majesty. I will pay attention."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and reported: "Your Majesty, Lord Xun Xun, please see me."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When the soldiers went to give orders, Wang Yue got up to say goodbye.


    After Wang Yue left, Xun Yu entered together. With a bright smile on his face, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "congratulations to your majesty. Congratulations to your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "Wen Ruo, where does this joy come from?"


    Xun Yu replied, "please tell your majesty that a large number of clothes have been sent in China. For us, this batch of clothes is a timely help. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s freezing. Even if you bring new clothes, it''s not easy to keep warm. How can it be regarded as a timely help? "


    Xun Yu replied, "please follow me to the warehouse."


    Seeing Xun Yu''s vows, Zhang Xiu said, "since that''s the case, I want to see it myself. Wenruo, you have aroused my curiosity. "


    Xun Yu said, "I promise to open your eyes to your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu and Xun Yu rushed out of the barracks and ran to the warehouse in the barracks. When they arrived, Xun Yu asked someone to take out a piece of clothes, handed it to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, please put it on."


    Zhang Xiu looked at this dress and was surprised.


    This dress in front of us is similar to the sweater of later generations, but the stitching is more tight. It is not made of steel, but is still made according to the way of the times. Zhang Xiu took over to touch, soft and delicate, and warm feeling, tentacles are very soft and warm.


    Zhang Xiu was surprised and asked, "is this made of wool?"


    "Yes


    Xun Yu nodded his head and said, "the people who sent the clothes also told us the general situation. Your majesty, this dress is different from our robe, but it is incomparably warm. When you put them on, you''ll know. "


    Zhang xiudao: "then try it!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately took off her robe and put this woolen sweater in it. With the sweater wearing on the body, a warm feeling flows on the body, especially comfortable.


    In particular, this pair of soft, does not affect the action.


    Zhang Xiu has only two words of evaluation -- comfortable!


    Such a suit of clothes on the body can really play a big role in cold resistance.Zhang Xiu squinted and said, "Wenruo, even this sweater made of wool is quite warm. But a piece of clothing down, the consumption of wool is not poor. The price of such a sweater is not low. With so many soldiers in the army, they can''t afford such clothes. Even if the court wants to supply, it can''t supply all of them. The cost is too high. "


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty is wise, so there are other new clothes."


    Zhang Xiulian said: "take it out and have a look."

 Chapter 1253

    Xun Yu immediately took out a rather generous dress from the storeroom. After all, the soldiers fighting on the battlefield are not suitable to wear long robes.


    Because fighting on the battlefield needs to be the simplest and quickest, which can not affect the body movements. The existence of long robes will restrict the soldiers, so the soldiers in the army wear short robes.


    This short robe is similar to the down jacket of later generations.


    A whole dress is divided into innumerable small squares, each of which is filled with duck''s appearance. And these duck down are also processed, very soft.


    This is the result of a short drum robe.


    Once it''s on the body, it''s a little bloated.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t know what was filled inside, so she asked: "Wenruo, the outside of the dress is a layer of cotton cloth, but it swells up. It must be the inside of the cotton cloth. What is it filled with, and what is it filled with?"


    Xun Yu replied, "Your Majesty, the stuff in it is duck feather, duck fluff. Whether it''s cashmere or duck down, it''s invented by domestic businessmen. It''s filled in clothes to increase the warmth of clothes. "


    "Duck down suits are relatively cheaper."


    "Duck down is easy to get, after all."


    "This time, the reason why so many down garments can be sent. The biggest reason is that the Ministry of the people''s Republic of China has called together big businessmen all over the world to order down jackets from big businessmen, and then the businessmen go to make them. "


    "Only with this level by level promotion can we guarantee that the production will be completed in a short time and then sent to the front line. The quality of this batch of goods has also been spot checked, which is very good. "


    Xun Yu solemnly said: "Your Majesty, with these down jackets, the soldiers will be more warm when they wear them. As for the clothes made of cashmere, they are more expensive, so only a few generals can be equipped with them. "


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    He was thinking about the cold weather, and the soldiers could not bear it. He did not intend to continue to use troops, but to stay. But he did not expect that the rear at this time sent down jacket.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is just like sending charcoal in the snow.


    It''s just in time.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wenruo, you are in charge of logistics. Next, put all these down jackets into the hands of the soldiers, and let them all get new clothes on board. With the new clothes, we will have the first chance in this cold winter. "


    Xun Yu said, "I will arrange it."


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t take off her woolen sweater, cover her robe, put on her cloak, and then returned to her own army account. Now that the soldiers in the army have new clothes, they will have more confidence in the next battle.


    When Zhang Xiu sat down to have a rest, Guo Jia came again.


    Guo Jia''s body is not weak.


    In history, Guo Jia was not very good. He died soon after following Cao Cao''s northern expedition to Wuhuan. But at that time, Guo Jia''s body was very good, especially Guo Jia who often practiced martial arts and was strong. Even now, in the bitter and cold land of the western regions, Guo Jia can still insist, not affected by the cold weather.


    Zhang Xiu said, "why did fengxiaosuo come here?"


    Guo Jia said: "tell your majesty, I have heard the news that the army of vesuvativa will arrive to fight us in a few days. I have some ideas about this war. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    There was a light in Guo Jia''s eyes, and he said: "Your Majesty, the place we are now in is between the two mountains, where the entrance is. Even if the road between the two mountains is extremely wide, not a canyon at all, but a broad road, there is still a chance to deal with them. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what opportunity."


    Guo Jia replied, "now on the Congling mountain, there is snow on both sides of the mountain. Not only that, the snow is thick. Under normal circumstances, such a place, it is impossible to snow collapse accident. But what if we bombard the mountain? Once the mountain collapses, the snow on the surface is bound to avalanche. As long as the mighty snow falls, the army led by vesudeva will surely be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the method you mentioned is good. Even, this is a once and for all solution, which can completely solve the problem of Vasudeva. But the problem is that, as a native of the western regions, she must understand the consequences of the avalanche. So it is very likely that Vasudeva will take precautions. "


    "It''s not difficult," Guo said confidently


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    For a time, Zhang Xiu''s heart was a little curious. Because in Zhang Xiu''s view, it is not easy to calculate Wei sudiva. But now Guo Jia says it''s easy. It can be seen that Guo Jia must have a plan in mind.


    Guo Jia replied, "Your Majesty, we can think of shelling. Then, will Vasudeva think of it? I''m sure you''ll think of it, vesudeva


    "Even Vasudeva now has the Colossus led by dumethin as her trump card. However, he saw the simplest method of killing and felling, and will certainly adopt it. ""So, Vasudeva, it will be bombarded."


    "As long as our position is under the snow mountain, vesudiva will certainly bombard us."


    Guo Jia said with a straight face: "so what we have to do is to choose a place to be stationed. To ensure that this place can be bombarded by the other side, and the other side must be able to bombard the only place, so that it is conducive to our plan. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I understand when you say that. The strategy of filial piety is really good. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    After a pause, Guo Jia explained the detailed plan and the matters needing attention. After that, he was completely relieved and said, "Your Majesty, do you have anything else to add?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "there is no supplement, but this time we should be careful. This war, in particular, must be planned ahead of time. You can arrange it as soon as possible, before vesuva has come with the army


    "I understand


    Guo Jia responded respectfully.


    On the official road leading to Congling, a team is marching fast.


    This group is the army of vesudeva. This time, in order to win, Vasudeva dispatched countless troops. Moreover, he had the elephant army of dumethin, who was high spirited, high spirited and highly effective.


    Vasudeva was still riding on an elephant.


    For Vasudeva, such a journey is nothing.


    But it''s different for dumethin.


    Dumishin was on his way with the elephants, but his heart was a little anxious, because the weather was cold and the earth was freezing, and the elephants couldn''t stand it. He quickly came to Vasudeva and solemnly said: "the great emperor, our Colossus, it''s very difficult to go on in the cold winter. It''s freezing. They don''t like to run around. They''re not as active as they used to be. "


    Vasudeva said very strongly: "dumethin, the Colossus is gone. It can be raised again. It''s just a waste of time. But if we are defeated in this battle, then you are not qualified to raise a colossus. "


    Dumishin laughs and knows that there is no room for change.


    If you agree, you have to go north.


    Even though it was freezing, vesuva had to keep going north.


    The army continued to move northward, getting closer and closer to Congling.


    When it was less than a day''s journey from Congling, another sentinel came back in front of her. Soon she came to her side and reported: "Your Majesty, the sentinel in front sent back the news that our people had found the camp of Zhang Xiu''s army. Now, Zhang Xiu has not been stationed in the same place, but in the channel. "


    She was startled and said, "is he stationed in the passage?"


    "Yes


    The tower nodded and answered.


    Weisutiva said: "if I remember correctly, this is the main road of Congling mountain to pass my Kushan. Even if the road is more than 100 feet wide, it will be freezing, and there will be countless snow on both sides of the mountain. The heavy snow is a sharp weapon to deal with Zhang Xiu. "


    The sentry heard in the clouds.


    He didn''t understand how to use Zhang Xiu to deal with weapons.


    National Master Seneca asked, "what does the great emperor intend to do?"

 Chapter 1254

    Wei sutiva said in a deep voice: "since the army led by Zhang Xiu has been sent to the door, how can the emperor let it go. Hum, Zhang Xiu has been fighting in the Central Plains. She has never seen any snow mountain or such a bitter and cold place as the western regions. So he doesn''t know how dangerous it is to be under the snow mountain. "


    Seneca turned his eyes and said, "great emperor, is this Zhang Xiu''s plot?"


    "Conspiracy?"


    Vasudeva snorted and said, "there can be any conspiracy. I can''t see it. If Zhang Xiu had a conspiracy, she would not die at the foot of the snow mountain. "


    "Zhang Xiu''s position, though fatal, blocked our access to the western regions. If we want to enter the western regions, we must fight against Zhang Xiu. "


    "So despite the snow mountain issue, Zhang Xiu didn''t make any mistakes."


    "Seneca, you are worried too much."


    Vasudeva said: "war is, even if you win many battles, you will never know what will happen in the end. Until the end, we can never decide who wins or who loses. This time, Zhang Xiu revealed a fatal flaw, so we have a chance to destroy Zhang Xiu. "


    Seneca nodded and said, "the great emperor is holy!"


    Weisudiva said: "now, we have to move in quickly and choose the place to deal with Zhang Xiu earlier. Zhang Xiu to the opportunity in front of us, must grasp. Once you miss this opportunity, it''s hard to get rid of Zhang Xiu easily. "


    Seneca saw a look of excitement in vesudeva''s eyes, and his heart was a little lost.


    Because Vasudeva has lost her mind.


    In this case, Seneca thinks it is quite dangerous.


    The slightest carelessness will lead to miscalculation.


    This is Seneca''s worry.


    But the problem is that Seneca can''t stop vesudeva, can''t make vesudeva calm down. Together with the army, Seneca quickly went to the front line. When it was less than 30 li away from Zhang Xiu''s camp, vesudeva had slowed down.


    At this time, Vasudeva began to send a large number of sentinels to inquire for information.


    To determine the appropriate location for the bombardment.


    When it was less than fifteen miles away from Zhang Xiu, the sentry sent by Wei sudiva finally came back. The sentinel in charge came to Wei sudiva''s side and reported: "great emperor, we have chosen the position of shelling the snow mountain above Zhang Xiu camp. This site, called Feiying rock, is a wide place on the mountain, which can hold at least 20 cannons. "


    With a twinkle in her eyes, she said, "OK, OK, it can hold twenty cannons at one time. Such a position, you can fire one-time, blow up the snow mountain on the mountain, make avalanche


    "The sentry said:" emperor, there is also a problem


    "What''s the problem?" said Vasudeva


    The sentinel replied, "the position we have chosen is unique. In order to bombard the snow mountain above Zhangxiu camp and cause avalanche, considering the location and range, it must be in Feiying camp. In other places, it can''t achieve this effect. So it can only be this location. "


    "No harm!"


    Vasudeva waved her hand and didn''t care.


    As long as we can bombard Zhang Xiu''s camp, it is worthwhile and feasible.


    Seneca was on one side, but frowned.


    After getting the news that Zhang Xiu was stationed at the foot of the snow mountain, Seneca was worried and thought that it was Zhang Xiu''s intention. Especially now, hearing the report from the sentinel, Seneca is more sure that Zhang Xiu may have laid an ambush.


    The reason is very simple. If other places are stationed, as long as they are shelling snow mountains, once large-scale avalanches are triggered, they will be enough to submerge countless places. But now the location of Zhang Xiu''s camp, to bombard, there is only one place that can cause an avalanche to submerge Zhang Xiu''s camp. Such a situation is a bit strange.


    Senegalen said hastily, "great emperor, this matter is strange and inappropriate."


    Vasudeva said in a deep voice, "master, you must be worried about this and that, but in fact, it''s just a coincidence. Now the opportunity has come, and the emperor will never miss it. Because once you miss this opportunity, it is impossible to solve Zhang Xiu once again. This is a chance that I will seize. "


    Seneca said, "the great emperor asked dumetheus to come out of the mountain, and his Colossus was there. When the time comes, Zhang Xiu''s army will be defeated. We can take a more secure approach. "


    "No!"


    She shook her head and said, "Seneca, you are too conservative. You don''t have to persuade me any more. I have made up my mind. "


    "Alas..."


    Seneca sighed in his heart.


    Because he couldn''t persuade Vasudeva.


    "You don''t have to worry about this, you don''t have to worry about that," said Vasudeva. What''s more, even if you want to lose, it doesn''t matter. After all, we just need more than 20 cannons. We can afford it. "


    Seneca said: "since the great emperor has decided, I can only support him."He had no other way.


    It can only be supported.


    After persuading Seneca, Vasudeva took the army on her way to the front line. When he was less than three miles away from Zhang Xiu, the army led by Wei sudiva stopped.


    The army was stationed, while vesuva sent a team of soldiers to escort a cannon to the flying eagle rock on the snow mountain. After all, it''s freezing. The roads are covered with snow, so it''s hard to walk.


    Rao is so, the soldiers of vesuva are still moving fast.


    It''s getting closer to Feiying rock.


    As long as all the cannons are transported to feiyingyan, they can attack and bombard the snow mountain behind Zhangxiu camp.


    In particular, feiyingyan is close to the two campsites, so when vesutiva''s army boarded feiyingyan, they began to lay cannons quickly and set up big guns for firing.


    Behind the Feiying rock is still a mountain.


    This location is between the flying eagle rock and the camp of vesutiva in the rear. There is no snow in the rear. Even if the artillery is fired, it will not cause avalanche. The most important thing is to bomb flying eagle rock.


    The general in charge here is pound.


    He was carrying thirty cannons, which were divided into two rows and arranged in a row. His posture was extraordinary. Pound is now sitting up in the wind and rain, a serious look. Now he waited quietly, waiting for the sentry to send back the news.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, the sentinel returned quickly. The sentinel came to pound''s side and reported: "general Pang, the news from flying eagle rock on the front line is that the other side has all been in place and started to assemble cannons to bomb our camp."


    "Light up!"


    When pound heard this, he immediately gave the order.


    As the order was given, the soldier took out the torch and went forward to light the lead of the shell.


    "Ho! Ho


    The lead is burning. Move fast to the ammo.


    "Boom!"


    There was a loud noise.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    One after another, the sound of firing came out, and all of a sudden, shells sprang up, crossed an arc in the air, then went to the direction of flying eagle rock and landed on it.


    "Boom!"


    The explosion, the sudden sound.


    In particular, the cannonball fell on the position of the Kushan cannons and immediately destroyed them. Even if the cannons were not destroyed, the soldiers around them were blown up.


    Even though the 30 shells did not destroy all the Kushan cannons or kill all the Kushan soldiers, the shock caused by the 30 cannons made the snow above the flying eagle rock begin to slide.


    A canopy of snow, sorghum fall.


    Especially after the snow began to fall, the next moment, suddenly burst out the sound of boom, the snow above the flying eagle rock, has begun to collapse and roll down.


    Snow rolling, as if surging, constantly set off waves.


    Its momentum is immense.


    The soldiers of Kushan, who are still on the flying eagle rock, were shocked when they saw the avalanche. It never occurred to anyone that they were scheming against Zhang Xiu on feiyingyan, but they were scheming against Zhang Xiu on the contrary.


    A wave of avalanches, they completely destroyed.


    The next moment, everyone was covered with snow, the snow continued to roll down, and rushed out for a long distance.


    Fortunately, the avalanche in this area was not particularly large, especially since the bombing did not last and the scope of the shock was limited. Therefore, after a wave of avalanches, no heavy snow broke and rolled down again.


    This scene, fell in the eyes of vesuva, vesuva''s face, full of endless anger, but also the face of iron green, tightly clenched her fist.


    It''s a trick!


    He''s on the hook again.


    Unexpectedly, the intention to deal with Zhang Xiu, but he was Zhang Xiu''s calculation.


    Seneca looked and shook his head.


    He didn''t say much.


    It has already happened. If I say a few more words, I will not pay attention to it except that it will make Vasudeva angry.

 Chapter 1255

    After she was angry, she gradually calmed down, turned her eyes and looked in the direction of Zhang Xiu''s camp. Next, Wei sudiva had to consider the war with Zhang Xiu, not the artillery on Feiying rock.


    Under the heavy snow, the flying eagle rock has been submerged by the snow. All the soldiers and artillery have disappeared, and no trace can be found.


    "The order goes on, and the army is on its way at full speed, approaching the Qin army camp."


    With the implementation of the order, the army led by Wei sudiva marched forward to the camp of Zhang Xiu.


    Pound, on the other hand, was on the high side, and he saw vesudeva begin to move forward, and ordered to turn around. The muzzle of one of the cannons, this time aimed at the position of the wesudeva army in the rear.


    When vesuva''s army moved forward and the rear was empty, pound gave a decisive order to fire.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    The cannon thundered.


    Each shell flew out of the gun bore, crossed arcs in the air, and in the twinkling of an eye, landed on the snow mountain on the side of the official road behind. In a flash, the shells exploded, the snow was flying, and the snow mountain on the hillside began to fall apart.


    Boom!!!


    The snow mountain broke and began to roll down.


    In particular, the subsequent shells into the explosion, making the snow mountain fragmentation momentum more urgent.


    The heavy snow fell all over the sky, forming an avalanche.


    Its momentum is incomparable.


    This scene was soon discovered by vesuva, who was walking forward. He was shocked to see the avalanche behind him. At the next moment, Vasudeva frowned, because the mighty avalanche was so powerful and overwhelming that countless snow fell behind from the mountain and flooded the road, making the broad road at the foot of the mountain full of snow.


    The road of vesuva''s retreat was immediately cut off.


    When Seneca saw this, his heart thumped.


    It''s not good!


    The situation is very bad.


    But the problem is that Seneca has no way to solve it, because at this stage, there is no possibility to retreat. He can only continue to march forward, and only by defeating Zhang Xiu can he give up.


    Seneca looked at visutiva. At this time, visutiva also seemed to realize that the situation was not good. He looked up to Zhang Xiu''s camp not far away, and ordered again: "pass the order, the army will advance at full speed, and attack Zhang Xiu''s camp directly."


    "Kill


    Vasudeva almost screamed as hard as she could.


    "Kill


    The officers and men in the army also roared.


    "Kill


    "Kill


    One after another, more and more soldiers of Kushan started to shout from the army of Kushan country. The voice was mighty, and the momentum was unique for a while.


    This cry, also clearly spread to pound''s ears. He looked at his artillery and asked, "how many shells are there?"


    The school in charge replied, "report back to general Pang, we still have 150 shells."


    Pound said, "keep them for me, waiting for my orders."


    "Yes


    The primary school immediately gave up.


    When pound was ready, Zhang Xiu was in the army camp. When he saw the Kushan army killed, but he did not love to fight, he immediately ordered to withdraw.


    More than 100000 troops immediately began to withdraw from the road in Congling. After a short distance back, we have avoided the possible damage caused by the avalanche on the mountain.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention to retreat.


    Even if he is near the entrance, even the shelling may not cause avalanche. Even if it is an avalanche, it may not affect him. However, Zhang Xiu did not take any risks. She retreated and distanced herself from the Kushan army to avoid the possible threat caused by the avalanche.


    At the entrance to the foot of the mountain on both sides of Congling mountain, there are big guns arranged in order.


    Looking around, there are nearly a hundred cannons.


    This is the artillery of all the troops under Zhang Xiu''s command, all gathered here. All the cannons were divided into four rows, and each row fanned out.


    As Zhang Xiu''s army left the entrance of Congling, Pang Tong, who was in charge of the artillery, gave a loud order: "fire!"


    There was a shout of firing, and the sound came out and echoed endlessly.


    Next to each cannon, the soldier in charge of ignition quickly lit the fuse. It was only a few blinks of an eye that the fire snake scurried forward. One cannon shot out of the sky. One by one, it flew out of the air. After crossing arcs in the air, it had already fallen into the entrance of Congling.


    Originally, the road was wide.


    It''s just like this that can make countless soldiers disperse.


    Now, shells scattered in the air, just landed in the crowd of Kushan army.


    "Boom!"


    The first shell exploded.


    In a flash, the soil was flying and the bodies were splashing."Boom! Boom


    Dense explosions sounded, countless shells fell from the air, constantly exploding. For a moment, the soldiers of Kushan who were on their way were killed by the explosion, and countless soldiers of Kushan ran around to avoid the falling shells.


    Some rushed forward, others retreated.


    It was just a series of explosions that made the 30 colossus under dumethin out of control. Dumeishen controls the elephants mainly through his own flute or the sound of other musical instruments. But at this time. The sound of explosions, the shrill cries of countless soldiers, and the sounds of the battlefield were interwoven. Even if he played musical instruments, it was useless.


    You can''t control the Colossus at all.


    Especially the violent explosion continued, frightening an elephant.


    An elephant hissed. A moment later, the first elephant shook its head. The big and long trunk threw the Kushan soldiers out.


    The elephant''s body is like a hill. In a sprint, the Kushan soldiers who block the elephant in front of them are knocked out one after another. Even when the elephant''s hooves fall, once they step on people, they will trample on the Kushan soldiers.


    An elephant, constantly out of control.


    In the twinkling of an eye, all the 30 elephants were out of control, and they were no longer under the control of dumeishen.


    The 30 elephants were originally in the rear, but now they all rushed forward like plowing. One by one, the soldiers were hit and flew out, and the soldiers of Kushan fell down one after another.


    "Boom!"


    The explosion is still going on.


    When the shell fell on the elephant side, it even killed the elephant.


    No one can resist.


    The whole Kushan side is in complete disorder.


    Vasudeva was in front of the army. He looked back at the soldiers who were in chaos under his command. She opened her mouth wide and looked unbelievable.


    What''s going on?


    What''s going on?


    He brought the army to fight with Zhang Xiu, which has not yet begun to fight, has not hurt a hair of the Qin army, his army is already in chaos, completely lost the strength to fight back.


    "Emperor, get out of the way, the giant elephant is coming again."


    Not far from vesudeva, Seneca suddenly cried out.


    Because an elephant rushed out of the rear, this elephant, escaped the artillery bombardment, collided and flew countless soldiers, and came in the direction of vesuvativa.


    Seeing this, Vasudeva shivered with fright.


    Dare not delay, he ran away to avoid.


    Dare not stop the elephant.


    But this elephant, after running forward for a certain distance, was concentrated by a shell, hurt his four hooves, and fell to the ground with a roar, and his mouth was constantly whining.


    At the moment, the continuous explosion on the ground is getting louder and louder, so that the sound reverberates back and forth on both sides of the mountain. Not long ago, on the hillside inside the entrance, the snow mountain, which had never fallen, suddenly has cracks again.


    Boom!!!


    All of a sudden, the snow broke.


    The avalanche began.


    Countless heavy snow continued to roll down, the rolling down momentum is extremely rapid, carrying rocks, carrying everything, fast forward, quickly rushed to the hillside.

 Chapter 1256

    Under the impact of dense snow, the soldiers of Kushan who had not yet had time to escape from the mountain were directly submerged by the washed snow and completely buried below.


    Fortunately, this is a minority.


    Most of the Kushan soldiers had already rushed forward to the entrance of Congling.


    Vasudeva looked back again, her cheek twitching and her eyes startled. He never thought that his battle would turn into such a situation that the army under his command suffered heavy losses, especially when the elephants rushed down in disorder, which had completely eliminated the army.


    The army under his command is no longer an army.


    No fighting power at all.


    When Wei sudiva and her army rushed out of the entrance, she looked around and saw the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty encamped in the distance.


    A big flag flutters in the wind.


    One by one soldiers, kill the array.


    Dressed in armour, Zhang Xiu rode in the front and exclaimed, "you have been defeated, visutiva. Those who come down will not be killed. There is no amnesty for the resistance


    "The resistance, there is no amnesty for killing!"


    Zhang Xiu pulls out the long sword at his waist and points to the front.


    "The resistance, there is no amnesty for killing!"


    "The resistance, there is no amnesty for killing!"


    Countless soldiers shout, after all, they have been informed at the beginning, so more than 100000 people suddenly shout, the voice is like a mighty torrent, gathered into an indestructible sword, pierced into the hearts of each Kushan soldier, and immediately destroyed the defense line in the hearts of the Kushan soldiers.


    One by one, the soldiers of Kushan were in panic.


    They were frightened by the Qin army.


    The soldiers of Kushan were already frightened after the bombardment and avalanche. Now, all of a sudden, they are flustered and have no desire to fight.


    "I surrender!"


    In the crowd, suddenly there were soldiers who surrendered.


    In particular, this man was very close to vesuva. As soon as vesuva saw the surrender, she drew her sword out of the sheath and stabbed it out with one sword. The sharp point of the sword, with a puff, penetrated into the soldier''s body and spat out blood.


    After she killed the soldiers, she exclaimed, "Whoever dares to surrender, the emperor will kill him. Today, there is no life but death. Everyone will fight with me. Anyone who dares to surrender will be killed! "


    When she said this, Vasudeva looked around, but not many people agreed.


    For no other reason, the army was defeated.


    The morale is gone.


    Not many people want to die.


    After all, they were even cut off in the back, and even the front was the undamaged Daqin army. They were so embarrassed that many soldiers were trampled down by the elephants. They were in a panic and had no fighting spirit to fight any more.


    "Great emperor, you go first!"


    All of a sudden, a cold voice came from behind Vasudeva.


    One of the Kushan generals stepped forward and came to the back of Vasudeva. He had a dagger in his hand and thrust it straight into vesuva''s back.


    "Puchi!"


    Sharp dagger, penetrating the back of Vasudeva.


    However, at the moment when the dagger pierced into the skin on her back, vesuva''s instinct was to move forward and force the dagger out from her back. Even if the back blood gurgles, but there is no piercing heart key.


    Vasudeva looked back and yelled, "galky, you dare to kill me. You want to die."


    "Vasudeva, you should die."


    Gargi was the man who had just assassinated vesudeva.


    He was a great general of vesudeva, but now, with the intention of killing, garji ran forward again, killed vesudeva, swung his dagger and stabbed her in the heart.


    Vasudeva quickly dodged and cried out, "kill me, kill galchi, kill this rebel."


    Voice out, but no one to stop.


    There was no one to help Vasudeva.


    All the people who used to work for Vasudeva were watching galki kill Vasudeva.


    Galky laughed wildly and said, "visutiva, do you see that? Now that you are being hunted down, there is no one to help you, no one to protect you. "


    "You finally know how useless you are."


    "It shows how failed you are."


    "Once upon a time, you were really powerful and invincible. In a short time, you wiped out Kushan. But even so, Kushan''s domestic criminal law is harsh, and many people have a hard time. "


    "Now, under your leadership, guishuang has lost again and again, and lost countless times. Modi, wuyoutu and others were killed, causing huge casualties. Now you''ve led an army and you''ve lost again. "


    "You are out of date."


    At the same time, he also attacked vesukhiva. He went on: "you, visudeva, are headstrong, can''t listen to any persuasion, and you are arbitrary. Damn you!"


    "Die


    Gorky roared and the dagger waved."Yes


    The dagger, which had been cut down, pierced into the left arm of Vasudeva, and blood spattered immediately, which made Vasudeva scream. Vasudeva drew back her left hand and chopped off the sword she held in her right hand, intending to kill garji.


    However, chalky''s dagger went up and easily blocked the blow.


    Chalky''s body darted forward, and with a bang, it hit the chest of Vasudeva.


    Vasudeva groaned and drew back.


    As he kept retreating, garki took advantage of the situation to pursue him. He made another lunge forward and came to Vasudeva''s body. He swung the dagger and stabbed it hard.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp dagger, turned into a streamer, pierced into the heart of vesudeva.


    Poof!


    Blood spattered out.


    Especially when the dagger is drawn out, the blood is gushing and gurgling like a spring.


    Garji did not pursue her any more. He looked at the faltering and retreating Vasudeva with a sense of relief on his face.


    Plop!


    Then she fell to the ground.


    The whole person stares big eye son, again have no breath.


    When garji saw the death of visutiva, he turned to the nearby Qin army, fell down on his knees and cried out to surrender. After chalky chose to surrender, the rest of the Kushan generals knelt down to surrender. Even Seneca, the national master, knelt on the ground and asked to surrender. It''s not that he didn''t want to fight to the death. It''s that at this stage, he had to surrender and there was no possibility of fighting again.


    The soldiers kept kneeling, and in the end, there was no one to resist.


    This scene falls into Zhang Xiu''s eyes.


    Zhang Xiu was also quite surprised. He did not expect that someone killed Wei sudiva, and then the whole Kushan army surrendered. Such a result is the best for Zhang Xiu.


    It was a big win.


    With a wave of Zhang Xiu''s hand, Gan Ning led the army forward, quickly intervened in the battlefield, collected the weapons of the Kushan people one by one, and detained all the soldiers who surrendered.


    In addition to the soldiers who were buried by heavy snow and killed by shelling and elephant stampede, there are still more than 100000 people captured today.


    According to the statistics, there are still more than 160000 people.


    More than 160000 GUI Shuang captives.


    After Zhang Xiu''s interrogation of the Kushan soldiers, she learned about Seneca, the national master, and Dushen, who controlled the colossus.


    And Seneca and dumethim were without damage.


    Dumishin controlled the elephant, because of the previous shelling, was killed three elephants. The rest of the elephants, although some were injured, did not have much influence. They could recover after a little rest.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for people to call Seneca.


    He''s going to meet Seneca for a while.


    This person, who can be the counselor of Vasudeva, must not be a simple person, and such a person must know the situation in Kushan like the back of his hand.

 Chapter 1257

    It wasn''t long before Seneca was escorted into the camp.


    Today''s Seneca is disheveled, dishevelled and in a mess. Especially when others enter, their hands are tied behind, their backs are bent, and they look extremely decadent.


    Today''s Seneca is no longer the national teacher of Kushan, no longer the existence of Kushan under one person and above ten thousand people, but a prisoner of Zhang Xiu, that''s all.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and the soldier turned back.


    Only one translator was left in the camp. After all, Zhang Xiu''s words and Seneca''s words are difficult to communicate directly, so someone needs to translate them.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and went to Seneca.


    Kick! Kick!


    Seneca retreated two steps later to stabilize himself. From the bottom of his heart, he was still afraid of Zhang Xiu.


    You know, although weisudiva is headstrong and powerful, in fact, weisudiva''s ability is not bad, and she is not a weak person. But when weisudiva and Zhang Xiu fight, the whole process is suppressed.


    From beginning to end, he never won.


    Such a situation makes Seneca know Zhang Xiu well.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Seneca, don''t retreat. I''m not a monster. Don''t be afraid. I don''t intend to kill you either, so just relax. "


    When Seneca heard the words, his eyes turned. Although he had a guess in his heart, he was suspicious. He said, "Your Majesty, Emperor Qin, are you going to surrender me if you don''t kill me?"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m really ready to surrender you."


    Seneca said, "I used to be the national teacher of the Kushan Kingdom, and I was the confidant of Vasudeva. Are you afraid that after I surrender to you, I will be capricious and betray you again? "


    Zhang Xiu said confidently: "even Wei sudiva is not my opponent, let alone you. What''s more, sutiva has lost her appeal. "


    Seneca said: "from the beginning, I thought that you entered the passageway in Congling mountain on purpose to lure the Kushan army to bomb. I tried to dissuade her, but Vasudeva went her own way. Even, I think, you have ulterior motives, and remind vesuva to be careful. However, Vasudeva did not listen. If not, you, Daqin, may not be able to win so easily. "


    With a smile, Zhang Xiu said: "this is the case with people in the world. There are always problems here and there. All of them, they can''t be perfect. For example, Vasudeva always has some shortcomings. It is precisely this shortcoming that is fatal as an emperor. It is also expected that he will lose now. "


    Seneca said, "Your Majesty has a point."


    Zhang xiudao said: "through my understanding of the fall of Kushan, you, Seneca, are a wise man and know more about Kushan. Are you willing to submit to me now? For my great Qin. "


    "I will!"


    Seneca did not even think about it. He answered directly.


    Up to now, Seneca has no heart to be loyal to Kushan, nor to die for Kushan. Vasudeva died, and countless kusanas chose to surrender, and he was no exception.


    Zhang Xiu said: "those who know current affairs are heroes. It''s good that you can make the most rational choice. I ask you, what do you think will happen in today''s Kushan country once the news of the defeat of visudeva comes back? "


    Seneca said, "Your Majesty''s wisdom is admirable. In today''s Kushan, there are already a lot of people''s grievances. Because of the wanton recruitment of soldiers by vesuvati, many people have lost their families. "


    After a pause, Seneca continued: "on such a premise, as long as the news of the death of vesudeva is sent back to Kushan, countless people will rise up against Kushan. At that time, the Kushan will be surrounded by flames of war and smoke of gunpowder, which will help your majesty to seize the Kushan. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but such a Kushan is killing everywhere, and there are wars everywhere. It is true that such a situation will weaken the pressure of Daqin and help Daqin seize all parts of Kushan. "


    "In fact, this is the slowest solution. We need to kill it one by one."


    "It''s going to take a lot of time."


    "Even if there are people resisting Daqin in Kushan, the speed of Daqin''s seizing Kushan will slow down. So I need a plan to unify Kushan directly. Seneca, do you have such a plan? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are sharp and aggressive.


    Seneca stands at the bottom and immediately feels great pressure. Even in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, he has a feeling that if he can''t give a good answer, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu won''t use him even if he recruits him.


    Seneca used his brain quickly.


    He thought about the solution.


    A moment later, Seneca solemnly said, "Your Majesty, if you want to unify the Kushan in a short time, the Kushan royal family can only choose to surrender. Apart from that, there is no other way."


    "Now, however, the Kushan royal family itself is a mess, for vesuvati has no son. So a lot of Royal people have a mind. ""The best way is to support one person."


    "Under the banner of the royal family, he ascended the position of the Lord of Kushan, and then surrendered to the Qin Dynasty in the name of the Lord of Kushan. Thus, the Kushan became the territory of the Qin Dynasty. When the time comes, the great Qin Dynasty will rule and govern the local areas. That''s right. "


    Seneca said: "in addition, it can only be carried out step by step. In fact, this method is not a good one. I don''t recommend it. "


    Zhang Xiu squints at Seneca.


    He knew that supporting puppets was the most useless way. Because even if the puppet is obedient in a short period of time, over a long period of time, the puppet will certainly develop its strength and even get out of control.


    The best way is still to take it completely.


    Otherwise, it can not be done once and for all.


    Zhang Xiu also knew that it was not a realistic thing to control Kushan in a short time, so she said, "what do you suggest to do about the control of Kushan?"


    Seneca replied, "under the banner of exterminating vesudeva and returning the people to a peaceful life, he went to Kushan and swept all over the country one by one. Only in this way can we be the most stable. "


    "During this period, I have studied some policies in Daqin."


    "Land reform was carried out in Daqin."


    "Take all the land back to the Qin government and lease it to the people. This policy is the best way to win over the people of Kushan, because in Kushan, these ordinary people are Dalits. "


    "The nobles of Kushan have all the land resources. As long as the emperor is willing to enter the Kushan, take over the land and distribute it to all the people, it will be very popular, and naturally it will be based on the Kushan. "


    "Of course, there are problems with this plan," Seneca said. That is such a move. Although it won the support of the people, it will be resisted by the princes and nobles in the whole Kushan area. Originally a group of loose sand of Kushan, perhaps again because of your attack, gather together to resist Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "but if I just kill them, these people are still princes and nobles, and they still control the place of Kushan. They are independent, right?"


    "Yes


    Seneca nodded.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that we can only kill them step by step. In this way, it is the way once and for all. Otherwise, it will float on the surface, and eventually Kushan will betray. "


    Seneca said, "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Since you have a good plan in your eyes, Zhang Jingxiu said. Then this time, according to your plan, step by step to kill to Kushan. At the same time, land reform was carried out in Kushan. And the person in charge of this matter is you Seneca. I will announce to the public that you, Seneca, have submitted to Daqin and worked for Daqin. Now you are in full charge of Kushan. "


    When Seneca heard this, his face changed slightly.


    The reason is simple. He was originally a Kushan man, and now he is the general director of Kushan land reform. When the news comes out, there must be countless Kushan nobles who want to blame him or even deal with him.


    In his heart, Seneca was a little worried.


    After all, Seneca himself was also a noble from kusana. But now, what he did was to dig the roots of Kushan princes and nobles and destroy all the power of Kushan.


    This is forgetting one''s ancestors.


    It''s also a betrayal of one''s origin.


    However, Seneca was helpless.


    He looked up at Zhang Xiu, suddenly found that in front of Zhang Xiu, even if it is not old, but in fact, Zhang Xiu''s scheming is quite powerful.


    Let him give a plan and do things with him.


    All the problems are on his back.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Seneca, I always use people without doubt. However, if something goes wrong, it is you who come to see me. I believe in you and give you trust. I hope you will live up to my trust. "


    Seneca''s heart trembled at this.


    He knew it was Zhang Xiu''s beating, but Seneca was not worried. Since he has chosen to submit, he will not be half hearted. After all, the strength of Daqin is obvious to all.


    Now he''s fighting against Daqin again. Isn''t he looking for death?


    Seneca doesn''t want to die.


    Seneca took a deep breath and solemnly said: "please rest assured, your majesty. Seneca will complete the task. In particular, I know many city masters in Kushan. I will persuade these people to submit to Daqin. "


    "I''m waiting for your good news."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and nodded, with a look of approval on her face.


    It''s a wonderful move to surrender Seneca.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "Seneca, what do you think about the man garji?"


    It is also a meritorious service for chalky to surrender to the Qin Dynasty when he killed vesudiva. However, according to the reports of the officers and men in the army, although garji is capable, he is not in control. He is a prick.


    Such people are not easy to control.So Zhang Xiu asked.

 Chapter 1258

    In his heart, Seneca thought.


    Now Zhang Xiu asked him, which means that the future of garji, even the life of garji, is in his words. If he says two bad words about chalky, he may lose his chance forever.


    Even in Seneca''s heart, there was an idea that he had already surrendered to Zhang Xiu. Under Zhang Xiu''s command, there could only be one senior official of Kushan, only one Seneca, not a second person.


    This is Seneca''s ambition.


    But the reason of kosenika was denied.


    He took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and said truthfully: "tell your majesty, garji is a good fighter. He is good at fighting. The only drawback is that he has a rather violent personality and a slightly radical way of doing things. Besides, there has never been any defect. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I know. Go down."


    "Here it is


    And Seneca answered, and turned away.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered people to send for garji. After a while, garji came in, bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "sinner garji, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    After giving thanks, chalky stood up.


    Zhang Xiu said: "garji, I am very grateful that you can kill Wei sudiva at the last moment and surrender to Da Qin. Next, I''m going to attack the Kushan Kingdom, and the army is going to attack it. Seneca has been subordinated to me. He is in charge of all the affairs of Kushan. As the commander of Kushan, you will attack Kushan with me. Would you like to


    "Yes, the sinner will!"


    Galky didn''t even think about it, so he answered directly.


    For him, to keep his life is the best. In particular, Zhang Xiu is willing to accept him, but also willing to entrust him with important tasks, galky is grateful.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go down. I''ll let you know when we send troops."


    "Yes


    When chalky answered, he withdrew with the soldiers who had entered.


    After Zhang Xiu took the chalky, she specially arranged for people to call him. He is most curious about dumeishen. Because dumethin is able to drive elephants and make them obey orders.


    This is not the ability that ordinary people can have.


    After entering, dumishin bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu, and then stood at the bottom without saying a word.


    Zhang Xiu tone is quite relaxed, not anxious not impatient way: "Du Mishin, you can drive the elephant, this ability, is extraordinary. Are you willing to submit to Daqin and serve me? "


    "I''m willing to serve your majesty," said dumethin


    Now that Vasudeva is dead, dumethin is the rootless Ping. If I don''t pay attention, I''m afraid I''ll die. Therefore, dumishen directly chose to be obedient, willing to listen to Zhang Xiu''s command, willing to work for Daqin.


    What''s more, dumethin is not a man who is dedicated to his country. After all, the Kushan had been almost destroyed, and it was Wei SUDI who suddenly turned the tide and continued her life for more than ten years.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "dumishen, besides controlling elephants, what animals will you control?"


    "Snake


    Dumishin replied, "tell your majesty, I can control snakes. In fact, in the place where I live, there are countless poisonous snakes under my control. I have trained these poisonous snakes since they were born, so that now, as long as I blow my whistle, all the poisonous snakes will come together. But it''s just my snake. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed.


    This has some effects, especially in some places, which can be taken by surprise.


    Zhang Xiu said, "go down!"


    "Yes


    Du Mishin breathed a sigh of relief, turned and stepped down with the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu immediately called Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren. In addition to Guo Jia, Pang Tong and Xun Yu, he began to say, "now, when Wei sudiva is killed, the Kushan army is defeated."


    "Just now, I have summoned Seneca, the national master of Kushan, Karki, who killed vesudeva, and dumethin, who can control the colossus. All of them are willing to submit."


    "I have arranged for Sergei to take charge of the Kushan affairs, and ordered them to carry out the plan to wipe out the Kushan. What do you think of this? "


    Zhang Xiu asked.


    Although Zhang Xiu made arrangements, the arrangements for Seneca, garji and others were just a general direction. What''s more, the Qin army is needed to wipe out the Kushan. We can''t rely on chalky and Seneca alone.


    Guo Jia said: "since your majesty has made a decision, all plans can only be arranged on this basis. Therefore, the minister suggested that Seneca be taken as the commander and galchi as the chief general, and thirty thousand Kushan prisoners be given to him. "


    "I did it to test him."


    "If Seneca and chalky have ulterior motives, they will know by a try.""If the two of them really submit, the 30000 troops, with sufficient money and weapons supply, will be enough to wipe out the cities of Kushan. After all, today''s Kushan has no strength."


    "This is my suggestion," Guo said


    Pang Tong replied, "Your Majesty, I agree with you. Even if they have ulterior motives, they will only damage 30000 people, which will have little impact on us. But if they really work for the great Sui Dynasty, they can sweep all over the country, and our army only needs to follow in the rear and take over all over the country. "


    Xun Yu continued: "the most important thing is that with Seneca and galchi in front, those who are loyal to Kushan must constantly resist Seneca and galchi. After we went, these people have jumped out, which is also conducive to our handling of the local situation. In other words, garji and Seneca are the bait that attracts hatred and is specially released. "


    All the generals agreed.


    Everyone agrees with Guo Jia''s suggestion and thinks that Guo Jia''s suggestion is the most appropriate one.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart, agreed with the arrangement, and then said, "since you all agree, it''s settled. But now it''s cold, and it''s not good for marching. "


    "The army was stationed here in Congling. When the cold winter passed, the weather began to get warmer. We crossed Congling again and began to sweep away the Kushan. During this time, we can also deal with the captured Kushan soldiers. "


    "After all, there are more than 100000 captured Kushan soldiers, and it is impossible to leave so many behind."


    "What do you think should be done?"


    Zhang Xiu has a plan to deal with these Kushan captives according to the previous example, but there are more than 100000 people. She also needs to be careful when dealing with them, so she asks questions and listens to people''s opinions.


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Majesty is worried that this continuous influx of prisoners into China will easily lead to trouble. In fact, more than 100000 people have little impact on China. What''s more, all large-scale slave trade is registered. Therefore, I think the remaining 30000 elite prisoners are still sold as slaves. "


    Xun Zheng said: "I also agree to sell it, because our army consumes countless grains every day, and needs more equipment and materials to maintain it. If there is not enough money and food, it will cause great pressure on the imperial court. Sell the slaves, and you''ll get rid of all the pressure. "


    Pang Tong said: "I agree. After all, some businessmen have come to contact me these days. Now when it comes to war, there are special businessmen to connect with. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s arrange it like this. We''ll pick out 30000 strong prisoners and sell the rest."


    "Yes


    Xun Yu, Pang Tong and Guo Jiaqi should go down.

 Chapter 1259

    Zhao Yun suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I have worries and worries."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Zhao Yun said: "since more than 100000 prisoners have been sold, the remaining 30000 will be handed over to Seneca and galchi. But the question is, will these 30000 elites feel resentful when they learn that the rest of them have been sold? "


    After a pause, Zhao Yun said: "once they enter Kushan with Seneca and galchi, will they betray? If they betray, I''m afraid it will have a huge impact on us. After all, this is 30000 real young elite, not 30000 ordinary people. "


    Hearing the speech, Guo Jia stroked his beard and began to laugh.


    Zhao Yun said: "Mr. Guo, why are you laughing? Did I say something wrong? "


    Guo Jia''s eyes became brighter and sharper than ever before, and said, "I laugh because even if these 30000 strong defectors are useless. In other words, I hope these 30000 people will rebel. "


    "In this way, Daqin had more reasons to kill the Kushan people."


    "That''s my attitude."


    "If the people of Kushan obey the arrangement and are willing to work for Daqin, they are the best. If the Kushan people are not willing to cooperate and dare to make trouble, then I, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, will crush them. "


    Guo Jia said: "even if these 30000 people suddenly want to revolt, it is tantamount to setting up a big flag against our great Qin Dynasty in the chaotic Kushan country and gathering countless Kushan people."


    "All those who are willing to resist Daqin will gather."


    "On the contrary, it is good for us to be able to wipe them out without having to wipe them out one by one. As long as such a force is eliminated, the Kushan people will no longer be able to resist the people of the great Sui Dynasty. "


    "Of course, if they don''t make trouble and are willing to fight for the great Qin Dynasty, they will be attacked by the people of Kushan who fight to the death, and they will become the target of the main fighting faction of Kushan."


    Guo Jia said: "no matter what, it''s all good without harm. So I think we have to throw 30000 cream elite. This is all my consideration. "


    After hearing this, Zhao Yun nodded and said, "the concerns of Mr. Guo are indeed comprehensive."


    Guo Jia said, "General Zhao praised me."


    Zhang Xiu said, "do you have any questions about Guo Jia''s proposal?"


    Everyone shook their heads and agreed.


    Zhang xiudao said: "since there are no opinions, the disposal of the Kushan captives is decided like this. Pang Tong, you deal with the prisoner. First select 30000 elite soldiers, and then dispose of all the remaining prisoners. "


    "Yes, sir


    Pang Tong bowed himself.


    To him, it''s nothing at all.


    Xun Yu said, "Your Majesty, one more thing. Now we have defeated vesuvativa, but the previous shelling of the snow mountain led to an avalanche, blocking the way through. In this way, there will be no Kushan soldiers who can withdraw Kushan. There was no news of the death of vesuva. According to the minister, this news can be sent to Kushan first. "


    Guo Jia echoed: "if Wen''s words are reasonable, now guishuang''s domestic situation is full of people''s discontent. As soon as the news of the death of Vasudeva comes back, especially the defeat of her 200000 troops, Kushan will be in chaos. To send the news back first is to disturb the Kushan first. After the spring of next year, we can send troops to attack. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said again: "in fact, there is another advantage in doing so. That is to say, the first step is to send back the news that even if there is local disorder in the Kushan area, the Kushan court will definitely respond and stop the resistance. At that time, we can also use our strength to wipe out the resistance. Now we don''t have to slow down. It''s best to gather and annihilate. "


    Others agree with the analysis of Xun Yu and Guo Jia.


    Because today''s Kushan is already a big building, it won''t last long.


    Zhang xiudao said: "Wang Yue, the transmission of the news, you arrange the royal guards to send a message to inform the past of the news that Wei sudiva was killed. There is no delay in this matter. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed himself to answer.


    "All back!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    They all got up and left, but Pang Tong was the busiest one today, because he was involved in the disposal of more than 100000 Kushan slaves, which could not be completed overnight and required a lot of time and energy.


    Fortunately, it was not difficult for Pang Tong.


    Everything is ready-made.


    There were merchants and slaves, so Pang Tong only needed to gather people together. It took Pang Tong nearly a month and a half to deal with all the captive slaves, leaving only 30000 young Kushan soldiers.


    The cold winter in Congling is colder than that in Chang''an.


    the roads are blocked by heavy snow every day, and the surrounding area is covered with white snow. Even because of the barrier of roads, even if there is food coming from the rear, there is a relative lack of food and materials, so the army can barely survive.


    Fortunately, in such a cold winter, there are military doctors to treat the soldiers, and there are new down jackets to warm the body, so everything is smooth, there is no bump.The cold winter is gone, and the new February is coming.


    In the spring of February, the glaciers thawed and everything revived in the Central Plains. However, Congling is still covered with ice and snow, but it doesn''t snow any more. Many trees with accumulated ice and snow show their vitality.


    There''s a touch of green around.


    Until the middle of February, is the early spring bloom, long lost sunshine hanging across the sky.


    At this time, the snow began to melt, revealing the original appearance of the earth. The soldiers under Zhang Xiu''s command also began to wear less clothes, especially the training of officers and men in the army. They also began to increase the amount of training and get busy.


    On that day, Zhang Xiu called together all the people in the army and called for Seneca and galchi.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now, the weather has become warmer. Now, it''s time to launch an attack on Kushan. In this battle, garji served as the commander, Seneca served as the commander, and led 30000 Kushan soldiers as the vanguard to enter the territory of Kushan. I led the army, followed by Congling into Kushan. In this war, we must work hard to wipe out the Kushan and take it down completely. "


    All of us should go down together.


    Both Zerg and sunika are of the same school.


    Neither of them refused.


    We should go straight.


    Zhang Xiu made some detailed arrangements and ordered to leave.


    When the army set out, Seneca and galchi led the Kushan soldiers to go ahead.


    Seneca drove his horse on his way. He looked at garji and said, "garji, we are going back to Kushan with our troops. If we want to sweep all over the country, we must be resisted by the Kushan people all over the country. You and I should be more careful. "


    Garji said in a deep voice: "national teacher, Zhang Xiu has sold more than 100000 of our Kushan sons. Today, there are only two or three thousand people left. We enter Kushan as pioneers. Do you think we really want to work for Zhang Xiu? "


    When he followed vesudeva, garji did not want to die with vesudeva, so he killed vesudeva. Now, with the army coming out, there are some swings in his heart. It''s hard to make a decision for a while.


    After all, he is also a kusana.


    It''s always a little hesitant to take the soldiers of Kushan to wipe out the people of Kushan.


    Seneca had no choice but to smile and said, "garji, Zhang Xiu is very cunning. Since he dares to let us go first, he is not afraid of our betrayal. Betraying Zhang Xiu at this time, I''m afraid, is not pleasing at both ends. In particular, you killed Vasudeva. If you come back to China now, I''m afraid you will be targeted. If you betray Zhang Xiu again, there will be no way out. "


    "Alas..."


    Chalky sighed.


    Seneca said in a deep voice, "come on, be firm in your thoughts, and don''t have any extra thoughts. What you can think of, what I can think of, Zhang Xiu has already considered. If we want to do something now, I''m afraid we''ll only encounter Zhang Xiu''s calculation again. "


    "I see."


    And he nodded and answered, and said no more.


    In today''s situation, garji can only listen to Seneca''s advice and first enter the Kushan country, and then consider other issues.

 Chapter 1260

    Wulei city is located in the west of the western regions.


    It used to be the city of Da Yueshi, but after the rise of Kushan, it was conquered by Kushan and became the city of Kushan. Now the Lord of Wulei city is called Jimu. This man has black hair and yellow skin. It is said that his ancestors came from the Central Plains. However, Ji Mu knows that he has lived in Wulei city since his great grandfather.


    In Ji Mu''s generation, Ji Mu made many contributions on the battlefield, and finally became the Lord of Wulei city and the vassal of Kushan kingdom.


    But now Ji Mu has a sad face.


    Because the kusana is already in the wind and rain.


    Especially at the end of last year, when the news of the death of visudiva came back, the whole Kushan fell into a cloud of sorrow. Even in Kushan, a lot of people rose up, so that there was a lot of gunfire in the country, and there were troublemakers everywhere. Fortunately, under Ji Mu''s administration, Wulei city is still peaceful and there is no disturbance.


    The Lord''s mansion.


    Ji Mu, in his early 30s, is in charge of government affairs.


    He has shoulder length black hair, draped behind his back, and a pair of beard under his jaw. He looks rough and domineering. His bright eyes are shining with wisdom.


    But Ji Mu''s eyes were full of worries.


    Because according to the information just sent back by the sentinel, the Qin army, which had been stationed in Congling, finally set out to fight in guishuang after the Spring Festival. The border of Wulei city borders Congling. Once the Qin army comes, it will enter Wulei city first.


    So Ji Mu is very worried.


    "Dong! Dong


    At this time, there was a knock outside the study.


    Ji Mu said, "come in!"


    With the door creaking, the servant came in, bowed to Ji Mu and said, "Lord of the city, kujiula, the prince of Kushan royal family, went outside the Lord''s mansion and asked to see him."


    "Please


    Ji Mu said.


    He also stood up, changed his formal robes, and went to the hall. Just after Ji Mu arrived in the hall, kujiula, the prince of Kushan, followed him into the hall.


    Kujiula was in his early twenties. He was tall and strong with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was very brave. In particular, the palms of kujiula''s hands are full of cocoons. At first glance, they are people who practice martial arts all the year round.


    After kujiula stood still, he saluted and said, "boy kujiula, I''ve met the Lord of the city."


    Ji Mu said: "Prince kujiula, please sit down!"


    "Thank you very much."


    Kujiula lifted his robe and sat down in the hall.


    Ji Mu asked directly: "Prince kujiula should be in Peshawar city. Now, how did he suddenly arrive at Wulei city?"


    Kujiula said: "to tell you the truth, when I was in the Imperial City, I heard the news that the great emperor had been killed. I was worried about the situation, so after dealing with the domestic affairs, I went straight north to Wulei city."


    "Especially when I entered the territory of Wulei City, I got a message from the sentinel at the front line that the troops of the Qin Dynasty were going to enter the territory of Kushan, that is, Wulei City, as they moved westward from Congling."


    "It''s a matter of great importance."


    "If we don''t deal with it properly, I''m afraid no thunder city will be in danger."


    "Lord, Wulei city is the first line of defense in the northeast of Kushan Kingdom and the strongest barrier. So the battle of no thunder city is very important. Once defeated, I''m afraid Kushan will be defeated. "


    Kujiula said: "Lord, I''m here for this. I hope I can get the support of the Lord."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Ji Mu burst out laughing.


    The laughter was full of banter.


    This kind of laughter made kujiula a little embarrassed and at a loss for a moment. Even so, kujiula did not show timidity, and still sat down.


    Ji Mu no longer laughs, but he doesn''t speak. He just looks at kujiula. That deep and sharp eyes, as if to see through kujiula''s heart, make kujiula inexplicable guilty.


    Jimu didn''t speak, neither did kujiula.


    For a moment, the atmosphere was awkward.


    It seems that the air in the hall is stagnant at this time.


    Ji Mu was indifferent, but kujiula was sitting upright. Sweat gradually appeared on his forehead, his heart was unstable, and his breathing was disordered. After a long time, kujiula gave a sad smile.


    He was completely convinced of Ji Mu.


    It''s an old fox.


    Kujiula said: "to tell you the truth, when I went north to Wulei City, I didn''t want to resist the army of the Qin Dynasty. In fact, in the Imperial City, the people of the Kushan royal family fought against each other and fought for power and profit. After all, I have no power, no power, no foundation, so I left Peshawar and chose to go north to Wulei City, hoping to get the support of the city master. "


    Ji Mu said with a light smile: "Prince kujiula, I''m afraid it''s more than that."


    "Indeed


    Kujiula continued: "in addition, my deeper thought is that with the help of Jimu city master, I hope to go down from Wulei city to wipe out Kushan and reorganize the world. They want to fight for power and profit in Peshawar, while I leave Peshawar to seek opportunities outside. Cannibalism is no skill. It''s better to have a foothold outside. This is my hidden idea. "Ji Mu sighed and said, "it''s a pity, it''s a pity!"


    Kujiula said, "what a pity."


    Ji Mu said: "unfortunately, it''s almost impossible for you to go down from Wulei city. Because today''s no thunder city is about to fall into the flames of war. You all know that if the Qin army wants to enter the territory of Wulei City, they will know that today''s Wulei city is in imminent danger and is already in turmoil. "


    Kujiula said: "the Lord of Jimu is a veteran in the battlefield. It''s no stranger to fighting. In my opinion, the defeated wujiutu, modi and others are not rivals of Jimu. There is Ji Mu in Wulei city. Even if the army of the Qin Dynasty is strong, it will surely win. "


    Ji Mu shook his head and said, "kujiula is praising me falsely under the guise. I can''t be such a praise. I''m just a city master. In particular, we have no more than 30000 troops in Wulei city. Such a force, in front of Daqin''s army, is just like a mole ant. It will be directly crushed. "


    Kujiula shook his head and said, "Jimu is modest. As far as I know, Jimu has 30000 troops on the surface. However, there are still various kinds of soldiers and miscellaneous soldiers who are only responsible for maintenance, all of whom are 23000. According to my guess, there are at least 50000 or 60000 City masters. Such a force is by no means without combat effectiveness. "


    Ji Mu stroked his beard and said, "I didn''t expect that Prince kujiula knew so much about my Wulei city."


    Kujiula said: "the ability of Jimu is obvious to all. It''s normal for me to pay more attention. So, Lord Ji Mu, please don''t be modest. I believe that with your strength, you can block the front of Daqin''s army. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier rushed in.


    The soldier entered the hall and said, "Lord, the latest news is coming back from the front line. Please have a look."


    With that, the soldier handed in the war report.


    Ji Mu receives the battle report, waves his hand to let the soldiers step down and quickly dismantle it for inspection. When he saw it, his face was suddenly gloomy, and his eyes were cold and fierce.


    Kujiula said, "Lord, but what important news do you have?"


    "It''s really important!"


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "but it''s not about the Qin army. It''s about the decline of Karki. Thirty thousand Kushan elites took Seneca as their military adviser. Now they have crossed the Congling mountains and entered the territory of Wulei city. They are going to kill us in Wulei city."


    "Damn it, this damn galky."


    As soon as kujiula heard Ji Mu''s words, he became angry.


    Last year, the news came back that Vasudeva died in the hands of galchi, and then surrendered to Daqin with Seneca.


    Now, as pioneers, these two people are killing first.


    Damn it.


    Kujiula clenched his teeth and said: "Jimu city master, this galky dares to lead 30000 Kushan troops to kill back. He is really looking for death. In my opinion, we should take the initiative to destroy the 30000 troops of chalky. This force is not strong. If we kill garji first, it''s equivalent to giving Zhang Xiu a head and a stick, and giving him a downfall. "


    Ji Mu shook his head and said, "no, no! Perhaps the intention of the Qin army was to let us take the initiative. Once Lei has left Daping, it will be our rootless city. On the battlefield, once we meet the officers and men of the Qin Dynasty, our 50000 or 60000 elite, we can''t even turn over the flowers and water. Therefore, it is not appropriate to take the initiative to attack. This may be the other side''s plan to lure the enemy. "


    Kujiula calmed down when he heard the speech.


    He thought it over carefully, but it''s possible. If the Qin army really wants to lure them to fight, once they leave Wulei City, even if Ji Mu is powerful, they can''t defeat the Qin army, and in turn they will be defeated by the Qin army.


    It''s a big gap between strengths.


    There is no doubt.


    Kujiula asked: "Lord Jimu, now the enemy has come, how do you plan to deal with it?"


    Jimu said, "garji and Seneca join hands. Both garji and Seneca have their own cities. It''s not easy for us to deal with the obedience of Seneca. After all, Seneca is very resourceful. "


    "But it''s not necessarily that chalky can''t be seduced. In particular, I know garji, because he used to go out of the city of no thunder. "


    "He is an ambitious man."


    "For the sake of power, he will do whatever it takes to climb up."


    "In fact, that''s why the emperor was defeated and killed. Now that he has been subordinated to the great Qin Dynasty, he may not be able to get such a good official position with his disposition to kill the great emperor. "


    Ji Mu''s eyes twinkled with wisdom, and said: "in my opinion, we will arrange people to go and win over galchi in the name of Prince kujiula, and let galchi turn over."


    Kujiula said, "Lord Jimu, what if I go to lobby myself?"


    Ji Mu''s brow rose when he heard it.


    He was surprised.


    I didn''t expect that kujiula had the courage to lobby in person.Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "Prince kujiula, is your words true? You should know that if you go to lobby for garji, you may be killed by garji and ask for credit in front of the emperor of Qin. "


    Kujiula said: "I know the risks, but I''m just an insignificant prince, not worth mentioning. But if I go to lobby in person, kujiula will think that he is valued, and he will be able to submit to us again. It''s the only choice for Wulei city to be able to stand tall. "


    Ji Mu''s eyes also flashed a light. He admired kujiula''s courage and said in a voice: "if Prince kujiula can successfully lobby garji, when Prince kujiula returns, I have no thunder city and am willing to be loyal to Prince kujiula."


    Kujiula had a smile on his face.


    The reason why he wanted to go in person was to convince Ji Mu.


    It turns out that he made the right choice.


    This move is a very dangerous way, but once it is successful, the harvest is huge. Kujiula was born in an ordinary family and had no power in the court. If he wanted to rise, he needed Jimu''s support.


    It''s his only choice.

 Chapter 1261

    Kujiula has achieved his goal, and his heart is unprecedentedly steadfast. He used to be an unworthy prince in the royal family. His father didn''t care and his mother didn''t love him. Especially early, his mother died. Without the protection of his mother''s power, he is a lonely family, so he can only concentrate on practicing martial arts and enhancing his own martial arts.


    After the death of his father, Vasudeva the great, kujiula''s brothers, even his brothers, began to fight for power and gain.


    No one cares about him.


    Because he didn''t have the strength to fight for it.


    Just like this, kujiula left Peshawar City safely and went north to Wulei city. According to kujiula''s inner plan, he has convinced the Lord of Wulei city. As long as he wins, he can get Jimu''s loyalty.


    Ji Mu is a great general.


    He was a feudal official.


    Power is great.


    If Ji muxiao is loyal to him, then kujiula will have the confidence to go south to fight for power.


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves are racing. Kujiula is on his way.


    He is going to meet the army led by chalky, ready to visit him, and then persuade him to return to Kushan again. Only when garji was willing to submit, could he have the chance to seize the imperial power of Kushan.


    Kujiula was on his way in the direction of garji. The two sides were facing each other. In less than one day, kujiula met the 30000 Kushan elites led by garji.


    These 30000 Kushan elites are all young men.


    They''re all in their early twenties.


    It''s the age of being strong and daring to fight and kill.


    Galky led such a team, dare to fight, dare to kill, the strength is very strong.


    Kujiula met the Kushan soldiers in front of him. He stopped the soldiers on the way and said, "please inform general garji. Some old friends will come to see you."


    The soldier did not stop him and turned to inform him immediately.


    Galky got the news from the soldiers, left quietly and went straight to the front of the army. He took kujiula to one side and said in a deep voice, "who are you? There is no such person as you among the old friends of this general?"


    Kujiula said with a light smile: "if not as an old friend, how can I see general garji? I don''t know who I am. General Gargi doesn''t know me. However, I have been known for a long time to general garji, and I have long heard of him. "


    "You haven''t said, who are you?" he said


    Kujiula said, "general garji, I am kujiula, the ninth son of the great emperor."


    "You are the ninth prince!"


    Galky''s eyes turned and thought. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly said: "Ben will remember that you are under the command of the great emperor. Because you are not respected and there is no help from your mother''s family, you have been in the deep palace. Few people know you. I''ve only heard your name, but I haven''t seen it. "


    Kujiula said: "general garji has a good memory. I really have no reputation."


    Garji continued: "Prince kujiula has traveled thousands of miles north to see me in person, but what''s the matter?"


    Kujura didn''t answer immediately. He said with a smile, "general galky, I''ve heard what happened on the front line. Everyone knows the great emperor''s character. He''s very headstrong and reckless."


    "It is inevitable that the front line will be defeated."


    "It''s human, too."


    "General garji killed his father in order to protect himself and more Kushan soldiers. I can understand this. If I were general galky, I would do the same. "


    "It''s a matter of no choice," kujura said


    He didn''t talk about things directly, but about the killing of visudeva by galchi. Because that''s what galky cares about most. If we don''t solve this problem, it would be nonsense to persuade galky to surrender.


    After hearing kujiula''s words, garji put a smile on his lips and said, "Prince kujiula understood me. There was really no other way. Otherwise, all my soldiers will be slaughtered. "


    Kujiula said: "I understand the painstakingness of general garji. However, at that time, general garji had to surrender to Daqin to save his useful body. But now, under the leadership of general chalky, they are all the elites of Kushan. "


    "Now is the best time for general galky to return to Kushan."


    "After all, there are no Qin soldiers in the army."


    "In fact, now general garji has separated from Zhang Xiu''s army as a forward. Zhang Xiu, you can leave now. Can it be that general garji really wants to serve the Qin Dynasty? "


    Kujiula shook his head and said, "with my understanding of Daqin, Daqin is extremely exclusive. Both the prisoners and the generals of Kushan were treated as slaves. Even Daqin''s expedition to other places was the same. "


    "Why did Zhang Xiu keep you, general garji?"


    "You have value."


    "Yes, you can be a chess piece.""However, once general garji lost his value, he would be abandoned by Zhang Xiu. But in Kushan, general garji is the pillar, the pillar of Optimus


    Kujiula said: "I sincerely hope that general garji can return to Kushan."


    Galky narrowed his eyes and looked sharp.


    He thought about kujiula''s words in his heart, because this situation was unexpected. He did not expect that kujiula himself came to persuade him to return to Kushan.


    Now, the emperor''s eyes narrowed, and he said, "are you the representative of the emperor?"


    Kujiula said: "general garji is really wise. I came here on behalf of myself. In today''s court, many princes are fighting for power and profit. How can they have the heart to persuade general garji? I asked him to go north to Wulei city. Now I know that general garji went west to persuade him. "


    "You only represent you, how can you persuade Ben Jiang?" he said


    Kujiula smile, then said: "I went north to Wulei City, and have won the loyalty of Jimu, the leader of Wulei city. With the help of the Lord of Jimu and the presence of the two of you, general garji, we can make sure that we go down to the south to wipe out all the people. "


    Galky''s brows rose when he heard it.


    He did not expect that kujiula should be loyal to Jimu.


    You know, Ji Mu is not an ordinary person.


    This is a tiger general.


    Even Ji Mu, Wen and Wu, who work for kujiula, have given kujiula a great advantage. Jiaerji was originally regarded as a chess piece by Zhang Xiu and was not reused. He was disappointed in his heart.


    Therefore, in his heart, garji was not particularly willing to work for Daqin.


    But now, the army of the Qin Dynasty is about to enter Wulei city from Congling. If now, can''t resist the army of Qin. Then it''s all in vain. "


    Kujiula said with a smile: "general garji, since we are in Wulei City, we have to face the Qin army. If we can''t resist the army of the Qin Dynasty, everything will be in vain. Only by blocking the front of Daqin''s army can we go south and fight for the ownership of Kushan. "


    There was silence in galky''s heart.


    He was thinking about what to do.

 Chapter 1262

    Kujiula was a little relieved at the silence of Gorky. Garji did not immediately refuse, which proves that he has a certain chance not to be rejected.


    Kujiula said: "general garji, you will not be reused in Daqin. Because you are from Kushan, not from Qin. But you are your own in Kushan. "


    "I know what you can do."


    "You are good at fighting. You are a strong general in the battlefield."


    "As long as you return to Kushan again, unite with Jimu and defeat Daqin''s army. Then, with our strength and prestige, it''s easy to wipe out Kushan. "


    Kujiula said: "at that time, kujiula will be the Minister of the dragon. I can promise to give general chalky the title of hereditary substitution, so that general chalky can enjoy the supreme glory. "


    When chalky heard this, he saw a light in his eyes. He is willing to fight for power. So, as soon as Gargi gritted his teeth, he said, "Prince kujiula, I am willing to help you."


    Kujiula said with an air of complacency, "general Gargi, you will not regret today''s decision in the future. The future of Kushan must belong to us. The kusana will be in our hands. "


    "I hope so," he said


    Kujiula smile, then said: "general garji, your military commander Seneca, he was the national commander of Kushan. Now, he''s in your army, too. "


    "Yes


    Answered chalky, nodding.


    Immediately, garji said: "only, Seneca has been firmly obedient to Daqin. When general Ben and Seneca took a big army to the West from Congling, I thought about leaving the Qin army. But Seneca did not want to


    Kujiula''s eyes, skimmed Jingguang, said: "if so, then kill him."


    "So be it!"


    The sharp light flashed in the eyes of galky.


    He did not intend to leave Seneca''s life, because Seneca was the national teacher of Kushan, and his status and status were very different. Once Seneca also followed kujiula, the status of Seneca would be higher than that of galchi.


    Garji said, "Prince kujiula, please follow me."


    They went to the army together and soon came to the place where Seneca was.


    As a national teacher, Seneca knew many of the descendants of vesudeva, even those who were not in favor. So when he saw kujiula, he was surprised and said, "Prince kujiula, why are you here?"


    Kujiula said, "I''ve come to take you on the road."


    Seneca''s eyebrows rose, showing an unexpected look. He immediately understood that kujiula must have lobbied garji to make him willing to return to the Kushan empire.


    Knowing the situation, Seneca said, "Prince kujiula, I am willing to submit to you and serve you."


    Kujiula''s eyes flashed a touch of emotion.


    However, in the twinkling of an eye, it is replaced by firmness. Because today, chalky is the most important. If chalky wants to kill Seneca, he can only consider the opinions of chalky in order to stabilize him.


    "Kill


    Kujura gave the order in a crisp manner.


    There was a smile in galky''s eyes. He drew his sword out of its sheath and put it forward. With a puff of breath, the sharp point of the sword had penetrated into Seneca''s heart. Drop by drop of blood came from the point of the sword that penetrated from Seneca''s back.


    "Poof!"


    The sword was drawn out and blood spattered.


    Seneca looked up and fell. When he fell from his horse to the ground, his body trembled twice and he lost his breath. But Seneca''s eyes were wide open.


    To his death, he didn''t expect that he would die under his own sword.


    Never died on the front.


    Never died in the hands of the enemy.


    He died in his own hands.


    Garji put his sword into the sheath and said, "Prince kujiula, although he has killed Seneca, he has solved the danger. But in fact, there are still many problems. The officers and men in this army need your advice to boost their morale. "


    "No problem!"


    Kujura replied with a smile.


    This can''t stop him. After all, although he has never been outstanding since he was a child, he has read a lot.


    There is enough knowledge for him to inspire soldiers.


    Garji immediately ordered the army to stop advancing, and then gathered all the thirty thousand Kushan. Thirty thousand people lined up, and their eyes fell on kujiula and garji.


    Gargirang said in a voice: "sons, today the prince kujiula has come from the city of no thunder. Now, Prince kujiula, I have something to say to you. Listen carefully. "


    When everyone heard kujiula''s name, their first reaction was that they didn''t know him, but their second reaction was that kujiula came from Wulei City, and galki didn''t contradict kujiula, which means that galki had already surrendered to kujiula and returned to Kushan again.


    Kujiula took care of everyone and said in a loud voice: "sons of Kushan, I am kujiula, the ninth son of the great emperor. When I was in Peshawar, I was not famous, so you didn''t know me. ""Similarly, I don''t know you."


    "We don''t know each other."


    "But we are all Kushan people, and we have lived in this land for generations. If I remember correctly, when you left Kushan with your father, there were about 200000 people. "


    Kujiula talked with a high voice, but his face was a little heavy. He continued: "but now, you only have 30000 people. I heard that the rest of them were all slaves and sold by Zhang Xiu. "


    "Daqin, he never regarded Kushan as a human being."


    "Daqin, we are only slaves."


    "Why Daqin didn''t kill you? It''s because they want you to kill your own people. It''s because Daqin wants to kill people with a knife and with you. "


    "Zhang Xiu, emperor of the Qin Dynasty, is extremely cunning."


    Kujiula continued: "as Kushan people, we are full of blood and pride. How can we slaughter our own people. We would rather bleed than kill our own people. "


    "General garji is not willing to be oppressed by Daqin any more, and is not willing to slaughter his own people."


    "So he chose to go back to Kushan."


    "Now, I hope you can come back to Kushan. Only when you all return to Kushan, can we have hope and the possibility of blocking the invasion of the Qin people. "


    Kujiula said in a voice, "please join me in resisting the Qin people."


    His words reverberate in the air.


    When the soldiers heard this, they were all touched. The reason is very simple, countless Kushan people were sold as slaves, these survived Kushan people, the heart has the feeling of death.


    In particular, this group of people are all young and strong in their early twenties. They have a lot of blood. After kujiula''s encouragement, many people have been deeply touched and are willing to fight to the death.


    "Fight to the death against Daqin!"


    In the crowd, there were soldiers shouting.


    "Fight to the death against Daqin!"


    "Fight to the death against Daqin!"


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the soldiers kept shouting, and the orderly shouting echoed in the air, which was full of emotion and sharpness.


    Kujiula saw this and nodded slightly.


    If soldiers are like this, they can use their heart.


    After giving encouragement to the soldiers, kujiula looked at garji and said, "general garji, we will return to the city of no thunder now. With the strong city of Wulei City, and Wulei city itself, there are fifty or sixty thousand elite of Jimu city leader. We are close to 100000 people, enough to defend the city without thunder. "


    "Not right!"


    Answered chalky, shaking his head.


    Kujiula said, "why?"


    Garji said: "in the army of the Qin Dynasty, there were guns. No matter how strong the city defense is, it can''t bear the bombardment of cannons. It is obviously unrealistic to resist the attack of the Qin army by relying on 100000 people. So I don''t think it''s time to retreat. And I can''t let out the news that I''m going back to Kushan. "


    Kujiula was also familiar with military books. He immediately understood the intention of garji and said, "general garji, you mean to take advantage of this opportunity to calculate the Qin army."


    "Yes


    In galky''s eyes, there was a light.


    His eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "the Qin army is extremely fierce, especially the weapons of the great Qin Dynasty. In addition, Daqin''s think tank is outstanding. It''s not easy to deal with Daqin. Now, when we have this opportunity, we have to play it by ear. Otherwise, it is certainly not enough to rely on Ji Mu''s strength and my strength. "


    Kujiula said, "how can we do it?"


    "I couldn''t think of it for a while," he replied. However, you should return to Wulei city immediately and inform Ji Mu to call on his staff to make a plan. After all, Ji Mu has a group of think tanks around him. After making a plan, immediately inform me, we set up a plan to calculate Zhang Xiu. "


    "Well, I''ll go back."


    Kujiula solemnly responded.


    Today''s kujiula can be described as complacent, because up to now, he has the effect of Jimu and garji. Then, after resisting the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, he would have the capital to go south to seize the throne. Jimu and garji, in particular, are powerful people. With these two people, kujiula doesn''t worry about losing the throne.


    Kujiula didn''t dare to delay his time. He turned over and set out for Wulei city.


    Garji went on with his army.


    After all, he had to give kujiula enough time to make plans and ambush the Qin army in Kushan.


    When kujiula returned to Wulei City, he rushed into the Lord''s house. When he saw Jimu, he said something about the surrender of garji and the plan that garji was going to make. Finally, he said, "Lord, garji has surrendered. He wants to make a plan for the Qin army. It''s just that the specific plan can''t be determined for the time being. Would you please call all the people together to discuss the strategy of defeating the enemy? "Ji Mu was silent when he heard the speech.


    It''s not easy to plan.


    After all, the strength of the Qin army is not two or three kittens, but a real hundred battles division.

 Chapter 1263

    Kujiula continued: "before I went to persuade garji, the Lord of the city said that if garji was obedient, he would help me. I don''t know what the LORD said, but it''s still true? "


    Seeing Ji Mu''s silence at the moment, kujiula is also worried.


    What if Ji Mu doesn''t agree?


    Ji Mu took a meaningful look at kujiula and said with a smile: "Prince kujiula, since I have promised something, I will not go back. Prince kujiula persuades garji to come back. I should help Prince kujiula. But now, it''s not easy to use garji to calculate the Qin army. "


    After a pause, Ji Mu said, "to tell you the truth, it''s not wise for the ninth prince to let garji kill Seneca. Because as a result of this, although it pacifies and shows the trust in garji, there is also a lack of a counsellor. It''s not easy for garji to be the master of the great emperor. It''s a pity for such a person to die! "


    Although kujiula was young, he had a firm mind. He said, "the lesser of the two evils is the right. Between the gurus of kalgi and Seneca, I can only choose kalgi."


    Ji Mu shook his head and didn''t say much.


    Cujura is young, after all.


    A lot of things, can not see through, also do not have enough ability to solve.


    It''s still a lack of skill.


    Ji Mu thought about it and continued: "Ninth prince, just a moment. I''ll call the counselors to discuss this matter."


    Kujiula waved his hand and said, "the Lord of the city will arrange it."


    Ji Mu immediately called the soldiers to inform his counselors to come to discuss the matter. Ji Mu''s counselor was named Pandit. He was a noble of Kushan people, but he was lonely in Pandit''s generation, so Pandit came to Ji Mu''s side to be the counselor.


    Pandit''s about 50 years old.


    The back has been bent.


    His face was covered with wrinkles.


    One eye''s pouch is very heavy, even the eyes are almost narrowed into a seam. He gives people a feeling that he is not like a 50 year old man, but a 70 or 80 year old man who is on the verge of dying in the West.


    Pandit bowed and said, "I don''t know what happened when the Lord summoned me."


    Since Ji Mu wants to work for kujiula, he has a correct attitude. He points to kujiula and introduces it. He also says that he wants to help kujiula rectify the Kushan. Finally, he says: "the ninth Prince has convinced Gorky to return to Kushan again. However, garji hoped to maintain the original status for the time being, so as to calculate the Qin army. Pandit, do you have a way to calculate the Qin army? "


    Pandit didn''t even think about it. He immediately said, "Ninth prince, Lord of the city, is there a possibility for this garji? That is, he is loyal to Daqin in his heart, and he deliberately perfunctorizes ninth prince to deal with our Wulei city."


    "No way!"


    Kujiula stood up with a strong reaction and answered flatly.


    He believed in his own judgment.


    Pandit was also startled. He didn''t expect kujiula''s great reaction. He looked at Ji Mu and saw Ji Mu''s unchangeable shaking his head. Pandit understood and said: "since the ninth Prince is so determined, garji must be sincerely attached to the Kushan kingdom. Under such circumstances, it is not easy to deal with the Qin army. However, there is no way out. "


    Kujiula said, "what can I do?"


    Pandit replied: "in the way of bitter meat, please come into the urn."


    "What does it sound like to be trapped in the fog?" asked Mr. panjiula? Please elaborate on the specific plan


    Ji Mu also nodded: "yes, elaborate on the plan."


    Pandit said: "Lord, please take out the map of mine free city. With the map, it''s convenient to explain the plan."


    Ji Mu immediately took out the detailed map of Wulei City area.


    Pandit pointed to the map and said, "to the west of Wulei City, there is a low-lying valley. This valley is called peacock ridge, which is located on the road leading to Wulei city. "


    "Coincidentally, on the North upper reaches of kongqueling, there is the Pamir River, which is more turbulent."


    "One mountain and one water is a stratagem."


    "My bitter plan is to let garji pretend to be attacked in peacock ridge and send people back for help. When the Qin reinforcements arrive at peacock ridge, we will dig up the Pamir River, irrigate it with water and submerge peacock ridge. "


    "Because peacock ridge is in a low-lying position. Once the dam is dug up and the river is suddenly irrigated, the Qin army is bound to be submerged and there is no reason to survive. "


    "Even if the Qin army is strong and strong, it is like mole ants in front of the flood."


    Pandit said: "in this battle, we can win without fighting. Even Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, had to die here. Of course, even if he gets away with it, he can''t come back to Kushan in a short time. "


    "Wonderful


    Kujiula''s eyes lit up when he heard it.This is a wonderful plan.


    It''s a good idea.


    Ji Mu''s face looked thoughtful after hearing this. He didn''t make a statement immediately. A moment later, Ji Mu had already made a deduction and solemnly said, "Pandit, your plan is good, but there are two problems."


    Kujiula became nervous.


    He was worried that the plan would not succeed.


    Pandit said, "please make it clear."


    Ji Mu said: "first, there are thirty thousand excellent soldiers under the command of garji. These people are all in kongqueling. Once the river is irrigated, the 30000 strong men under garji''s command will also be in trouble and submerged. "


    "Second, Zhang Xiu of the Qin army is not a fuel-efficient one. Are you sure that the Qin army will really enter the urn. If the Qin army finds out our plot, it will be in vain. "


    Ji Mu raised doubts.


    Pandit laughed, smoothed the messy stubble under his jaw, and explained: "the Lord of the city is always wise, but he can''t figure it out. Although the soldiers of chalky must be present. "


    "But under the flood, there may not be no way. The water potential scours, but once it meets the trees, the scouring force will be much smaller. In peacock ridge, although many places are flat, there are also trees. "


    "Just let the soldiers of Gorky step into the woods. Even if the water washes past, the soldiers can hold the trees immediately, so they will not be washed away. "


    "At that time, the scope of the flood is very wide. As long as the Qin army enters the scope, we can break the dike. Therefore, it can ensure that the soldiers of garji will not be affected by the flood, and at the same time, it can submerge the Qin army. "


    Pandit was not impatient and continued: "as for the Qin army, it''s impossible to find the plot. You know, today, garji is subordinated to the Qin Dynasty and works for the Qin Dynasty. Zhang Xiu can''t doubt garji. "


    "And if you are not familiar with peacock ridge, you can''t know. Peacock ridge is a low-lying area, which is easy to be flooded. So, I believe it''s all right. "


    "Our army just needs to hide near peacock ridge, wait for the flood to wash out, and then lead the troops to encircle and suppress the Qin army. We are sure to win this war. "


    As a counselor, Pandit was extremely confident.


    If he is not sure of the plans he has made, he is in vain as a counselor.


    Kujiula was very happy when he heard that. He agreed with Pandit''s plan and said, "Mr. Pandit''s plan is extremely feasible. Lord, I think it can go according to the plan. "


    Ji Mu thought for a while and nodded: "I agree, too."


    After confirming the general direction, Ji Mu and Pandit discussed the details together. After everything is settled, Ji Mu immediately arranges the sentry to leave Wulei City, and goes to the front line to inform galchi who is coming to Wulei City, so that galchi can be ready.

 Chapter 1264

    On the official road to Wulei City, 30000 guishuang elites are on their way. This is the deliberate slowing down of Gorky, whose purpose is to wait for kujiula to send back the news.


    Now, galky''s heart is full of expectation.


    As long as the Qin army was blocked, it would be easy for them to go south to wipe out the chaos of Peshawar city with the help of the 30000 elites in the hands of garji and the troops in the hands of Ji Mu.


    At that time, he will be the Minister of the dragon.


    With such feats, garji must go to the top of his life.


    So galky was excited.


    As the army continued on its way, a soldier quickly came to garji and reported: "general, a man came from Wulei city to see you."


    "Bring it," said galky


    "Yes


    The soldiers have to be ordered to make arrangements immediately.


    Not long after that, the soldiers from Wulei City, who were ordered by Jimu, came to garji, took out the letter and said, "general garji, this is the letter from our Lord. Please have a look at it."


    Galky took the letter and scanned it quickly.


    The plan was written in the letter.


    Galky made a mental deduction and thought that there was nothing wrong with the plan. The most important thing is that although his soldiers will be flooded, they will not be washed away because of their preparedness. On the contrary, the Qin army was suddenly scoured by the water in the Pamir river. If they were caught off guard, they must have suffered heavy losses, or even lost their entire army.


    This is the opportunity.


    It is also the chance to destroy the Qin army with the least loss.


    He put away the letter and said, "go back and tell the Lord of Jimu and the ninth prince that I already know the plan. Next, I''ll follow the plan. "


    "Goodbye!"


    The soldiers of no thunder city were ordered to turn around and leave.


    Garji, with his army, continued on his way to peacock ridge.


    This peacock ridge is on the way to Wulei City, and the distance between it and garji is only more than 30 Li, so garji arrived at peacock ridge quickly without taking too long.


    Within peacock ridge, the terrain is relatively low-lying.


    It''s quite flat and wide.


    When garji entered, he immediately arranged for people to search the mountain forest, because knowing that Ji Mu was going to flood peacock ridge, he had to find the mountain forest in advance, and then enter the garrison to ensure that when the flood came, he could escape in the forest with the help of trees.


    Otherwise, everything will be in vain.


    However, it didn''t take a long time for galky to find the hiding area. In less than half an hour, he found the hiding area.


    Thirty thousand troops, all in.


    Galky gathered all the troops under his command and said in a deep voice: "sons, now that we have entered the forest, we have started the plan to ambush the Qin army. Next, you will stay in the mountain with us. In a short time, there will be a flood. Once the flood comes, you can find the trees nearby and hold them tightly to avoid the flood. "


    "Do you understand?"


    Chalky asked in a loud voice, and his voice was even more excited.


    All the soldiers said, "I understand!"


    The sound is uniform and thick, which makes all the birds in the forest fly up and hover in the air. They are so frightened that they dare not fall into the forest again.


    However, some soldiers in the army also asked why garji had stayed in the forest.


    Garji did not hide, but said that he wanted to ambush the Qin army.


    This is the plan.


    With such an explanation, no soldiers asked again.


    Everybody stop.


    At this time, garji had a wild deer hunted. After killing the wild deer, he stained two clothes with blood, making the two clothes bloodstained and look extremely tragic.


    After all this, chalky called two confidants.


    One of them, named sayeqi, was a centurion. He was quite brave in the army. He was once under the command of chalky. The other, Guban, was an ordinary soldier.


    Garji asked the two men to get on the bloody clothes, and then said, "sayeqi, you two will return immediately along the road to meet the emperor Zhang Xiu of the Qin Dynasty. Then he told Zhang Xiu that we were ambushed, and asked Zhang Xiu to come to peacock ridge for rescue as soon as possible."


    "Here it is


    Sayeqi immediately responded.


    It''s not hard for him.


    Sayeqi thought about it and said suddenly, "general, when we meet the emperor of Qin, he will definitely ask about the war. What shall we say then? "


    "Let''s say we were ambushed by the army of the city of no thunder, and the loss of the army was heavy, and there was very little left," he said. Now, it is surrounded by the army of Wulei city. Please help Zhang Xiu as soon as possible. As for you taking Guban to ask for help, you say that when you take people to break through, more than 100 people break through and ask for help. In the end, only you and Guban escape. "


    After a pause, galky said: "remember, we must make things serious and clear. We must let Zhang Xiu worry about our safety. ""Even, Zhang Xiu may suspect that we were ambushed, and there were not many troops left, but they were not destroyed. Once Zhang Xiu inquires, you explain that the possible practice of Wulei city is to surround and attack reinforcements. "


    "Please ask Zhang Xiu to send troops."


    "In a word, selling miserably is."


    "In this battle, whether we can make Zhang Xiu send troops or defeat the troops of the Qin Dynasty depends on whether you can make Zhang Xiu believe that we have been ambushed," he said


    Sayeqi said, "don''t worry, general garji. I promise to finish the task. When I see Zhang Xiu, I''ll see you. No matter how dangerous it is, I will finish the task. "


    "I believe you!"


    Answered chalky solemnly.


    He patted sayeqi on the shoulder, looking very dependent on him.


    Sayer qihan smiles and leaves with Guban. Just as sayeqi had just stepped out of the three-step distance, garji suddenly said, "sayeqi, wait a minute!"


    Sayeqi turned around and said, "what else can I do for you, general?"


    "We are now the sons of kujiula," he said. As long as the Qin army is blocked, with the strength of Jimu and I, it is easy to wipe out the Kushan chaos. Therefore, we are destined to be the master of Peshawar after the victory of this war. "


    "Therefore, your action is the key."


    "As long as you succeed, I will personally ask for credit for you in front of Prince kujiula. Now you are just a centurion. Your official position is very low, and it is not worth mentioning. However, as long as you come back successfully, I can promise to let Prince kujiula appoint you as the leader of a small city after the victory. "


    With a smile on his face, galky said, "this is my promise to you. I dare not say that there are too many. I can guarantee that a small city is the leader of a city. "


    As soon as sayeqi heard this, he got excited.


    Opportunity!


    Here''s his chance!


    Sayeqi nodded busily and answered firmly: "please don''t worry, general garji. I will succeed in this mission. Zhang Xiu''s army of the Qin Dynasty will surely enter peacock ridge. "


    "Go


    Chalky waved his hand.


    Sayeqi with Guban turned on the horse, and then went to the rear, quickly to the direction of the army led by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1265

    After crossing the Congling mountains, the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu entered the territory of Wulei city and was still on a fast track. In this attack on Kushan, there are garji and Seneca as strikers to attack Wulei city. Zhang Xiu doesn''t hope, but also looks forward to it. He expected that garji would make a choice. After all, garji, who leads the army as a forward, could make some moves without any constraints.


    Or return to kusana.


    Or loyal to Daqin.


    It is the test of chalky to let chalky lead his troops.


    Zhang Xiu''s journey is smooth.


    All the way there was no obstruction.


    After all, there is a chalky road ahead. Even if there is a Kushan army to resist, there is a chalky sweep. So the road of Zhang Xiu is smooth. However, at the end of February, about to enter March, Zhang Xiu received a message from the front.


    Garji betrayed Daqin, killed Seneca, and surrendered to kujiula, the ninth Prince of Kushan. He wanted to unite Jimu, the leader of Wulei City, to fight against Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was sorry to get the news.


    After all, garji chose to betray Daqin, and chose to be the enemy of Daqin.


    In fact, Zhang Xiu can get information, not his sentinel arrangement is in place, but in the army of Gorky, Zhang Xiu arrangement. These people are the eyeliner of Zhang embroidery. Once he has any action, he will be found, and then send the news through nearby Jinyi Wei.


    at any rate, Zhang Xiu captured all the precious frost people and sold the slaves. The remaining thirty thousand cream soldiers could not be placed in their eyes if Zhang Xiu was in the middle.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest.


    Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong, Guo Jia and Xun Yu sat together for a meal, chatting about the next arrangements.


    Zhang Xiu said: "now, garji betrays, but garji has not announced the news, still under the banner of Daqin. In my opinion, in doing so, it is very likely that galky is trying to plot against us. Perhaps we can use a similar method to calculate chalky in reverse. "


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, if you want to count on chalky in reverse, you have to wait for chalky to do something. Now, we just need to move forward steadily and wait for galky to do it. "


    Guo Jia echoed: "what a great man said is true."


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, let''s cross the Congling mountains and further lengthen the front line. Although last year they sold their slaves and bought a lot of food. But now we also consume countless grains every day. If we can''t get a stable source of food within three months, it will be very dangerous for us. "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "if Wen can rest assured, we will win Wulei city in three months. As long as we have a foothold in Wulei City, then food is not a problem. "


    Xun Yu nodded.


    He just put forward the problem, so that Zhang Xiu had prepared for it.


    In today''s situation, the deeper into the enemy''s hinterland, the more food will be consumed in the transportation process. Because with the extension of the battle line, food transportation will be consumed, and soldiers also need to use food, so a lot of food will be consumed along the way, and it is impossible to have the original amount of food when it is actually delivered.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, soldiers came.


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    The soldier reported: "Your Majesty, it''s a soldier sent by galki. One of them is sayeqi, the other is Guban. Both of them were covered with blood. Now they are in a mess and ask to see your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "bring people here."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have orders. Send them at once.


    Soon, sayeqi and Guban came to Zhang Xiu.


    Today''s two people are already in the dust, their faces are haggard, their lips are dry, their hair is messy, and even their blood has become dark red, and they have been dry for a long time.


    Two people in order to create a realistic appearance of urgency, this road, few meals, almost no water, also do not rest, so can be so embarrassed, give people the appearance of countless suffering.


    "Plop! Plop


    Sayeqi and Guban saw Zhang Xiu and knelt down on the ground.


    Sayeqi was crying.


    A look of grief.


    Zhang Xiu looked at sayeqi and Guban kneeling on the ground. When she saw their appearance, she understood them in her heart and joked. She said, "are you two so sad that your parents or galky are dead?"


    Sayeqi and Guban were stunned.


    They were a little stunned.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are strange.


    But now, sayeqi and Guban don''t think about anything. Their task now is to make Zhang Xiu believe that garji was ambushed at the front line, so that he fell into a desperate situation.


    Sayeqi said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, help! Please help


    Zhang Xiu light way: "help, save whose life?"Sayeqi replied, "Your Majesty, we broke through the encirclement and asked for help at the command of general garji. The 30000 troops led by general chalky were ambushed on the way to Wulei City, where peacock ridge is located. "


    "So much so that the generals are defeated at the expense of their troops."


    "Even the national division of liansenica died in this battle."


    "Now there are only three thousand soldiers left by general galky''s side. However, the number of troops intercepted in Wulei city is no less than 30000. "


    "Your Majesty, general galky is now in danger of toppling over at any time."


    Sayeqi kowtowed to the ground with his head, and said with a choking look: "please, your majesty, move forward at full speed and rush to peacock ridge to rescue general garji. If it''s too late, general galky will be in a desperate situation. "


    Guban echoed: "general garji is in danger. Please send your troops as soon as possible."


    They both look like they are going to cry.


    It''s all a look of grief.


    Sayeqi is not satisfied with this, once again said: "we have been ordered to ask for help, a full 100 people.". But in the process of breaking through the siege, we were robbed and killed by the troops of Wulei City, so that now, only the two of us survive. Your majesty, please send your troops as soon as possible. Otherwise, general galky will die. "


    Zhang Xiu wants to laugh.


    It''s interesting.


    I didn''t expect that in order to calculate him, garji even arranged two actors to act. They were not only dressed in bloody clothes, but also looked like garji was dying.


    At this time, Guo Jia took out the map and looked at the situation of peacock ridge. When he saw it, he immediately went to Zhang Xiu and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the location of peacock ridge is really the only way to Wulei city. However, the landform of kongqueling is quite different. It''s a low-lying area, very low-lying. "


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart, and knew that this time, it was very likely that she wanted to make use of the low-lying terrain.


    Otherwise, we will not choose peacock ridge.


    Zhang Xiu stares at sayeqi and Guban and says, "do you two want to live or die?"


    Sayeqi and Guban were stunned.


    What''s going on?


    Now, they come back and report the news, and then let Zhang Xiu lead the soldiers into peacock ridge, so as to ambush the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu. But now, Zhang Xiu suddenly asked them, to die or to live.


    That''s weird.


    Why don''t you come as scheduled?


    According to their expectations, Zhang Xiu is worried about the safety of the 30000 Kushan elites led by garji, so she should go to the army immediately.


    But now, it is not immediately into the army, but also said a strange words.


    After all, sayeqi was a centurion and had some insight, especially when he thought that he would have a chance to be the leader of a small city after he went back, so he used his brains and immediately said, "Your Majesty, although general galky was defeated, he was also an army fighting for the city of no thunder. Now we come to ask for help. Even if we are guilty, please your majesty to rescue general galky first. "


    Zhang Xiu light way: "you are wrong."


    Sayeqi''s eyes widened and he didn''t understand. He asked, "Your Majesty, what''s wrong with us?"


    Guban also nodded busily.


    Two people''s hearts suddenly have no bottom, because everything has changed.


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you choose to survive, that is to be honest. What is the situation that galky is now in peacock ridge. You have to choose to die, that is to keep your mouth shut and continue to act like a rescuer. "


    Brush!


    Sayeqi''s face changed slightly.


    What''s going on.


    How can Zhang Xiu suddenly say such words, making sayeqi completely unprepared.


    But sayeqi didn''t want to explain immediately. He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I still don''t understand what you mean. Now the general has been ambushed by more than 3000 troops in kongqueling, and there are only three thousand left. We are here to rescue. How can we tell the truth? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it seems that you don''t want to be honest."


    "Come on, drag it down and kill it."


    Zhang Xiu gave the order directly.


    The soldiers came forward and dragged sayeqi and Guban out. Now, these two people are still unwilling to admit, shouting injustice, shouting death, a pair of suffered great injustice.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the two people who were crying for injustice and said, "I know very well that Seneca died in the hands of garji. I also know that garji has now turned to kujiula and joined hands with Jimu, the Lord of Wulei city. "


    Boom!!


    In sayeqi''s brain, there seemed to be a huge thunder.


    I was confused.


    There was a blank in my mind.


    Sayeqi did not expect that Zhang Xiu would know that garji had killed Seneca, and even knew that garji had surrendered to kujiula and joined hands with the Lord of Wulei city.The news came too suddenly.


    For a moment, sayeqi was completely unprepared, and his brain couldn''t turn around. He didn''t know how to answer Zhang Xiu.


    Indeed, there is no defense at all.

 Chapter 1266

    Zhang Xiu has a cold and solemn look.


    The cold eyes, dark and deep, as if to pull the spirit of sayeqi and Guban into them. At this moment, they were already dazed and at a loss.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now, are you willing to be honest?"


    Sayeqi and Guban had a good time.


    Two people from at a loss, become panic, sayeqi is said: "Your Majesty, this, this, villain just act according to orders, and villain has nothing to do with it!"


    Guban also agreed, saying: "villain is just acting on orders, it''s a last resort. Your majesty, don''t kill me. Please don''t kill me. "


    In the face of Zhang Xiu who knows the root and the bottom of the story, the two directly agree.


    Zhang Xiu light way: "since so, honest account, you now come to ask for help, in the end what.". What''s the trick in this


    "Yes, yes, I will."


    As a centurion, sayeqi understood the situation.


    He didn''t dare to hide it, and immediately said truthfully: "tell your majesty that we have come to see you. In fact, no one has broken through, only the two of us. Our clothes are also stained with deer blood. "


    After a pause, sayeqi said: "thirty thousand Kushan elites led by general garji are safe and sound in peacock ridge, and there has never been any situation. This time, under the command of general garji, we pretended to break through the encirclement to see you, just to let you send troops into peacock ridge. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "what do you want me to do in peacock ridge?"


    Sayeqi replied, "to your majesty, peacock ridge is low-lying. Once it is irrigated and washed by the river, the peacock ridge will become a land of glory, and the army will be completely submerged."


    "General garji and Lord Jimu have joined hands. Lord Jimu will arrange people to build dams to store water on the Pamir river bank upstream of peacock ridge. As soon as his Majesty''s army enters, the dyke will burst and the water will be released. "


    "Although general garji''s army is also in peacock ridge. But in fact, general galky''s soldiers are all in the woods. Once the flood comes, they can climb to the tree or hold the tree to avoid the erosion. "


    "The Qin army was inside, but there was no defense."


    Sayeqi said: "once the Qin army is suddenly irrigated by the river, it will be completely scattered. At that time, Wulei city master and general garji will join hands, and the Qin army will surely be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer: "it''s really a good calculation. Unfortunately, galky doesn''t know. His every move falls into my eyes. He thought it was a secret, but in fact, it was all exposed. "


    Sayer Qilian said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu asked: "since you know that Ji Mu of Wulei city built a dam on the Pamir River to store water, do you know the location of the dam?"


    "I don''t know."


    Sayeqi shook his head busily.


    Zhang Xiu said: "since you don''t know the situation, you and Guban have no value. You two can die now. Come on, drag them down and cut them down. "


    "No, no!"


    Sayer Qilian hurriedly called out, a flash of quick wisdom flashed in his mind, and Lian said: "Your Majesty, general garji, in order to determine whether our plan is successful or not, has ordered me and Guban, as long as the plan is successful, we must return to report the news. If we don''t go back, general galky will judge that our discovery is a failure of the plan. Your majesty, please think twice. "


    This is a temporary idea of sayeqi.


    He came up with the idea in a hurry.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "if you don''t go back, garji will consider the plan a failure. However, when you go back and tell the news to galky, the news will still fail. So, I''d rather you don''t go back. It''s more appropriate to kill you two now. "


    Sayeqi''s heart thumped.


    He was frightened.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Sayeqi quickly said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to submit to Daqin and serve for your majesty."


    Guban is not stupid, and then said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to submit to Daqin and serve Daqin."


    The two men spoke one after the other.


    Zhang Xiu had made up her mind and said, "you two have to obey me, but it''s a little redundant. I only need one person here. Therefore, I will accept the obedience of those of you who can survive. "


    "Bang!"


    With a crisp sound, sayeqi has drawn out his sword.


    Without waiting for Guban to respond, sayeqi stepped forward and stabbed Guban''s heart with a long sword in his hand. He clenched his teeth and held the hilt firmly, saying: "Guban, don''t blame me. I want to live too."


    At the next moment, sayeqi directly pulled out his sword, and the red blood splashed out like a spring and fell on the ground.


    Gu Ban''s eyes were wide open, and his face still looked unbelievable. In fact, he was also ready to make a move, but he was one step slower than sayeqi, so that sayeqi was the first to kill him.Plop!


    Gu Ban''s body fell to the ground.


    Sayeqi knelt on the ground again and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, I have killed Guban. I am willing to submit to Daqin and serve for your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu looked at sayeqi in front of her and said, "I didn''t expect that sayeqi can not only adapt to circumstances, but also make a decision. He is a ruthless character. A man like you, though cruel, can do great things. "


    Sayeqi said, "Your Majesty praised me."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "tell me, if garji or kujiula knew that sayeqi had killed his classmate Guban in order to survive, what would be his mood?"


    Brush!


    Sayeqi''s face changed greatly.


    At this moment, sayeqi finally understood.


    The real purpose of Zhang Xiu''s letting them fight each other is here. Whether sayeqi killed Guban or Guban killed sayeqi, the final result will be that Zhang Xiu will be in charge.


    Kuerla and the emperor are not sensitive, but I don''t care about him. Now, I''m a man who obeys his majesty, and I''m a man of Daqin. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised: "you are very good. Now, you can go back and hand over to garji. Your task is very simple. It''s to stabilize Gorky. When I take action to destroy garji, I will promote you and reward you for your contribution. Under my command, you will always be rewarded for your meritorious deeds and punished for your mistakes. I''ll take good care of you. "


    Sayeqi said: "yes, villain will go back now. His majesty, please rest assured that the villain will stabilize galky and fight for enough time for his Majesty''s action. "


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand.


    "The villain left."


    Sayeqi''s face was full of respect, and he turned and left quickly. He''s afraid to stay here. If he''s killed, it''s not worth it. It''s better to go first.

 Chapter 1267

    Sayeqi left in a hurry. After a moment, he couldn''t see anyone.


    It''s long gone.


    Pang Tong stood beside Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty killed Gu ban with a knife to restrain sayeqi and make him obedient. But the problem is. What if sayeqi came back to kongqueling and told the truth when he saw garji? In this way, our advantage will disappear completely. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "impossible."


    Pang Tong said, "what if this man really betrayed me?"


    With a smile and a confident look, Zhang Xiu replied: "in fact, sayeqi can''t betray Daqin. There are three reasons


    "First of all, that''s what happened just now. Sayeqi killed Guban and killed his colleague without authorization. Once this matter is exposed, it will be extremely dangerous for sayeqi. In particular, a Kushan who killed his own people could not get the trust of kujiula and garji. So sayeqi didn''t dare to take risks. "


    "Of course, this alone is not safe enough."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "so there is a second point, which is the information I disclosed earlier. I know about the betrayal of garji and the surrender of garji to kujiula."


    "When kujiula was brought to trial earlier, I disclosed this news."


    "Kujiula knew that I had inside information, so he knew that in the case that garji could not ambush me, even if garji surrendered to kujiula, even if he united with Ji Mu of Wulei City, it was useless."


    Zhang Xiu said: "as for the third point, sayeqi has now revealed the complete plan of garji. He has already said all his plans, which is tantamount to betraying chalky. It''s very difficult for a little sayeqi to go back and persuade garji to do whatever he wants after he betrays garji. "


    "This is my confidence."


    Zhang Xiu''s face is full of confidence.


    He did not dare to betray him.


    After listening to this, Pang Tong thought about it and said, "Your Majesty is right. Under the present circumstances, sayeqi really has no reason to betray Daqin."


    Guo Jia and Xun Yu also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s analysis.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now that we know the overall plan of garji. So, it''s time to act. My plan for this war is like this


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu elaborated the detailed plan. The plan for this time is relatively simple, but it is also extremely effective for this war.


    After hearing this, Guo Jia added some details.


    Xun Yu and Pang Tong agreed.


    When the plan was made, the army began to divide its forces as it continued to advance.


    Zhang Xiu acted in accordance with the plan, while sayeqi drove his horse on his way quickly. Even far away from Zhang Xiu''s army, sayeqi''s heart is still beating fast, and his face is full of fear.


    Zhang Xiu is terrible.


    Facing Zhang Xiu, he felt that he could be killed at any time.


    Now, finally, security.


    Sayeqi''s heart, but now also began to struggle.


    He was faced with two choices: first, after returning to the army, he told garji what happened truthfully and asked him to respond; second, after returning to the army, he acted according to Zhang Xiu''s instructions.


    Both have advantages and disadvantages.


    First, sayeqi is easy to deal with. After all, he killed Guban and exposed all his plans. As a result, he is likely to be killed.


    The second choice, sayeqi may be exposed, after all, he wants to hide for Zhang Xiu, but also betrayed Kushan. The only advantage is that this option is relatively safe.


    Sayeqi was struggling all the way.


    In the end, sayeqi suddenly thought of garji''s character. Garji''s disposal personnel are always very strong and violent, even if they are not in line with their heart, they will kill people easily.


    Once he tells sarki, he tells Zhang Xiu all the arrangements, and is likely to be killed.


    Thinking of this, sayeqi finally made a decision.


    He chose to betray kusana.


    Because he didn''t want to die.


    Sayeqi rushed all the way, but he still kept on running all the way, so that he was even more tired, his lips were dry, and his face was haggard. In a short time, sayeqi returned to the military station in peacock ridge.


    When garji saw sayeqi coming back, he frowned a little. Today''s sayeqi looks like he''s dying. He''s really decadent, but he doesn''t take charge of sayeqi. He says in a deep voice, "sayeqi, what''s the result of his mission? You went with Guban. Now, you''re the only one coming back. "


    Sayeqi''s body is weak and weak. Instead of answering immediately, he said, "water, water, I''m thirsty."


    Along the way, he lived in the open.


    Not only is he thirsty, but also he is too hungry to support.Chalky frowned and said, "water and food, you have something to eat. Tell me quickly, have you ever succeeded in your mission this time? "


    "It worked."


    Sayer Qilian answered quickly.


    But his heart was cold. After all, galky was galky. He only thought about his death and never thought about his life or death. Just like this, it strengthened sayeqi''s heart of betrayal.


    When garji heard sayeqi''s words, he was worried. He put down his worry, put a smile on his face, and said, "very good, very good. You should eat something first, recover your strength a little, and then talk about it in detail."


    "General Xie!"


    Sayer Qilian said thanks.


    Garji ordered people to bring meat and water. Sayeqi wolfed it down. After eating it, the whole person recovered a little. After all, there is a sense of fullness in the stomach, and the whole body doesn''t feel weak.


    Chalky couldn''t wait to ask, "come on, what''s going on this time?" £Ü


    sayeqi said: "in reply to general garji, Zhang Xiu is extremely cruel and suspicious. Gu ban and I, shabby and haggard, met the Qin army. As soon as we saw Zhang Xiu, we began to ask for help. However, Zhang Xiu''s heart is suspicious. She immediately killed Gu ban and then said she wanted to kill me. Let me be honest and say what happened to peacock ridge. "


    When galky heard the words, he was shocked.


    This is the style of Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not only a way to kill people if you don''t agree, but also a way to scare sayeqi.


    Sayeqi replied: "report back to general garji. In the face of Zhang Xiu''s inquiry, I said I was asking for help. After all, I was very embarrassed. I said I was asking for help. At first, Zhang Xiu doubted, but in the end, she also believed. I asked Zhang Xiu for help. I implored her to speed up her journey and come to peacock ridge to rescue general galky. "


    "At that time, Zhang Xiu had people take maps for examination."


    "I have a close look at the peacock ridge terrain."


    "Seeing that there were no Jedi in peacock ridge, and there was nothing easy to ambush, Zhang Xiu looked at me and asked us about our current situation. According to general garji''s command, I said that we were surrounded by Jimu city leader."


    Sayeqi said: "general garji, Zhang Xiu was suspicious at first, but in the end, she also believed it. So Zhang Xiu agreed to rescue, he has taken the army to speed up the road, is to peacock ridge. In this case, general galky arranged for sentinels to inquire about it, and then he knew the final result. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Galky''s face was covered with a smile, said: "well done, especially in the face of Zhang Xiu''s threat, you can guard the bottom line, not afraid of threats, this is very good."


    Sayeqi said: "general praise, I am your soldier, naturally want to fight to the end."


    "Well said!"


    Garji''s eyes were sharp, and he said: "it''s really hateful to embroider this Liao. If we don''t kill Zhang Xiu, we will never stop. This battle is to thoroughly slaughter Zhang Xiu''s Qin army and win the final victory. "


    Sayeqi said: "the general will win. Zhang Xiu will pay a price for killing innocent people indiscriminately."


    Garji patted sayeqi on the shoulder and told sayeqi to have a good rest. Then, garji himself also returned to his resting place and closed his eyes to prepare for the next war.


    Sayeqi''s heart, but a long sigh of relief.


    It''s done.


    He steadied galky.


    Now, just wait for Zhang Xiu to take action, just sayeqi heart, but it is not clear, Zhang Xiu in the end how to plan. Even sayeqi''s heart, or some fear and uneasiness.


    Even so, sayeqi can only bear it.

 Chapter 1268

    Pamir River, across no thunder city.


    This is a tributary of the Indus River. The current is strong and fast, near peacock ridge. Now, in the area where the Pamir River leads to peacock ridge, there is an army, which is digging the canal quickly.


    This army was sent by Ji Mu.


    The number is nearly one thousand.


    After excavating day and night, it has been excavated near the river. Just dig a hole in the last place. The turbulent river of Pamir river will break down the last line of defense, and then the river will be diverted to irrigate and directly rush to peacock ridge.


    After all, the location leading to peacock ridge is lower and lower, which is conducive to water erosion.


    If you rush all the way, the current will become more turbulent and more violent. When you hit the low-lying bottom of kongqueling, it will form a torrential river and submerge everything.


    Ji Mu''s intention was to submerge the Qin army.


    As long as Zhang Xiu''s more than 100000 Daqin generals are washed away by the torrential river, the battle against Daqin will be won even if the combined forces of Wulei city and garji are weak.


    Here on the Pamir River, the general in charge is galava.


    This man is a strong general in the army.


    He is also Ji Mu''s confidant.


    It was galava who was gentle and powerful, with outstanding ability, that was why he was sent to the Pamir River to take charge of the most critical part. If the plan here fails, it will be illusory to deal with the Qin army.


    When galava finished digging the canal, he led his soldiers to garrison.


    A thousand people, rest and camp nearby.


    Now, Galois is waiting for the sentinel to convey the news. As long as the sentinel comes, he says that Zhang Xiu''s army has entered peacock ridge. In that case, galava would immediately dig up the soil connecting the river and make the Pamir river change course and wash away.


    Now spring begins in March, and the weather is getting warmer.


    Therefore, galava and his 1000 soldiers are quite comfortable in the sun.


    They have no difficulty in this battle.


    In the distance of about three miles from galava, an army is quietly approaching. It was Zhao Yun who led the army. He led two thousand soldiers to destroy the garrison of Wulei city who was preparing to break the dike.


    The Pamir river is very vast and winding, which is not easy to find. Zhao Yun first arranged sentries to find out the position of the enemy. After the sentries sent back the situation of garava, he began to move, quietly and quickly.


    So much so that galava didn''t notice anything.


    The team led by Zhao Yun is still on the way, and the distance between the two sides is still rapidly narrowing.


    When the distance between the two sides was less than 800 steps, Zhao Yun left 300 white horse followers, and the white horse followers under his command had already been killed. At this time, the white horses began to shout, and the guns in their hands also went up.


    "Boom!!"


    The rapid sound of horse''s hooves trampled on the ground, so that the ground began to tremble.


    More than a thousand people, quickly close up.


    For the war horse, the distance of hundreds of steps is only a matter of a moment. So when the horse appeared in the line of sight of garava and others, the distance had been quickly shortened.


    "Enemy attack, enemy attack!"


    Galava yelled.


    Now he leads the soldiers to garrison, under his command each soldier, has not worn the armor, all is resting. All of a sudden, garava called for the enemy to attack, and all of them hurriedly picked up their swords and prepared to attack the enemy.


    The next moment, baimayi from the soldiers who have already killed into Wulei city.


    A big gun swung up and stabbed out.


    Puchi! Puchi!


    The sharp point of the gun penetrates into the body of the soldiers in the no thunder city. As the gun was drawn out, a cloud of blood came out. Scream, in an instant, has been heard in the Pamir river bank, a no thunder city soldiers, scream slaughter.


    These are infantry.


    They didn''t even have armour on board, only simple swords.


    Especially before, they have been digging the river day and night, so that the body is very tired, weak combat effectiveness. Now they are suddenly killed. The soldiers in this thousand mine free city are totally unable to resist, and can only be killed passively.


    Galava''s eyes were splitting, and his heart was full of anger.


    Rao is so, but he has nothing to do.


    His soldiers were too weak to withstand the attack of cavalry. In Wulei City, garava''s soldiers are well equipped with shields, guns and armour. Even if cavalry rushes into the battle, garava dares to attack.


    Now, it''s a fight against the stone.


    The army under his command, which came to die, could not be stopped at all.


    "Retreat, retreat all the way!"


    Cried galava.


    If he doesn''t retreat at this time, all his soldiers will be killed soon. In particular, the cavalry of Daqin suddenly appeared on the Bank of the Pamir river. It can be seen that the plans of the city master and garji have been exposed.At this time, garava''s first thought was to leave the scene, go to see Ji Mu and tell him the news to avoid Ji Mu being ambushed in peacock ridge.


    Garava with soldiers to evacuate, but a short time, his soldiers were cut back and forth, countless casualties.


    A thousand people, less than two hundred left in a flash.


    The two hundred have not yet escaped.


    Garava saw the dead soldiers, and his face was not reconciled. But the problem is that up to now, he has no way to solve it. He has to leave the soldiers alone.


    Garava quickly fled, but he just ran less than 50 steps, but saw another 300 Qin cavalry outside. This group of Qin cavalry blocked the retreat of galava and even killed him.


    "No, I can''t escape."


    Garava was very anxious in his eyes.


    He rushed up with his sword, ready to kill a white horse, and then took the horse away. But as soon as he got close, sharp spears came, which made garava unable to escape and blocked his way out completely.


    The rest of the soldiers who wanted to escape from Wulei city were all hunted and killed by the 300 cavalry outside.


    After Zhao Yun rushed back and forth, he now turned around and saw galava breaking through. He had seen garava give orders before, so he quickly approached him with a shake of the reins.


    As soon as the gun shook in the air, the tip of the gun turned into a dragon like, lightning like, and had stabbed galava''s chest.


    In the face of this blow, galava quickly raised the knife to block.


    When the blade hit the barrel, although the force of the blade made the barrel slightly offset, the tip of the gun continued to move forward, and with a puff, it penetrated into galava''s shoulder.


    A blow, through the shoulder.


    "Poof!"


    The red blood splashed out immediately.


    The shrill cry came from galava''s mouth.


    Zhao Yun''s horse, however, is still charging forward. When Zhao Yun mentions the silver gun, the gun directly pokes galava in the air. Immediately Zhao Yun roared, and galava''s body was thrown out.


    "Bang!"


    Galava''s body landed.


    He snorted, not only bleeding on his shoulders, but also heartbreaking pain. What''s more, when he fell to the ground, all his bones seemed to fall apart, unable to lift any strength.


    He put his hands on the ground and wanted to stand up, but when he exerted his strength on his hands, he not only felt pain all over his body, but also felt a tear on his pierced shoulder. The burning pain made him unable to lift his strength.


    "Da! Dada


    The horse''s hooves sounded again.


    Zhao Yun galloped his horse and turned it into a stray arrow. In a twinkling of an eye, he came to galava''s body. The Dragon gall silver spear stabs out like lightning.


    In his heart, garava was so anxious that he suddenly turned over to avoid Zhao Yun''s shot. But the next moment, Zhao Yun stabbed in the air of the Dragon Dan bright silver gun in the air, then beat down.


    "Pa!"


    The gun landed on galava''s shoulder.


    One shot down, there was a click, and galava''s shoulder bone was broken by one shot.


    Galava couldn''t help screaming.


    "Death


    Zhao Yun murmured, and the gun turned in the air. The next moment, the tip of the gun left a streamer in the air, and it had penetrated into galava''s heart. Then he put his spear on the ground and pulled it out.


    "Kill me, not one!"


    Zhao Yun holds a gun and orders again.


    When it comes to the war with the Kushan people, Zhao Yun has no mercy. Because the war with the Kushan people is a matter of your death and mine. If they don''t kill the kusanas, they''ll be in trouble.


    The slaughter lasted less than half a quarter of an hour. All the people were killed, while Zhao Yun stayed in the same place.


    Now he has to wait for news.


    Wait for Zhang Xiu to arrive at peacock ridge.


    Once the news came, Zhao Yun would order his soldiers to dig up the dam and flood peacock ridge. However, such flooding is not to submerge the Qin army, but to submerge the garji buried in peacock ridge.


    This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.


    As time went by, it was getting colder towards evening. Although it''s spring, there is a big temperature difference between day and night. Fortunately, soldiers in the army are wearing thick clothes, but they don''t worry about catching cold.


    There''s nothing wrong with a night.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhao Yun led the soldiers to wait in place after breakfast. At this time, I saw a sentinel, galloping from a distance, straight to the location of Zhao Yun.

 Chapter 1269

    "Newspaper!"


    The sentry called out and urged his horse forward.


    Soon, he came to Zhao Yun.


    The sentry turned over and dismounted, hugged his fist and said, "General Zhao, your Majesty''s army has entered the entrance of peacock ridge. Your majesty orders that General Zhao can take action. "


    "I see."


    Zhao Yun waved his hand and said, "Ben will take action immediately."


    "Goodbye!"


    After the sentry gave the order, he turned and left.


    Zhao Yun looked around at the white horse Yicong officers and soldiers under his command and said in a voice: "sons, your majesty has arrived at peacock ridge. Now, it''s time to give the kusana a fatal blow. Give me orders to dig up the river banks. "


    "Here it is


    The messenger gave the order at once.


    Baimayi, who was stationed on the Bank of the river, got the news from the soldiers and went straight to dig the dike.


    Originally, the dyke on the Bank of the river had been soaked by the river, and it was a little soft. Now, after digging a small gap, the torrential river immediately surged over. With a hula, it broke the weak dike.


    Boom!!!


    The turbulent river water enters the excavated river course and flows rapidly.


    The riverbed of the Pamir river is higher, and the river channel dug by the soldiers of no thunder city is lower. So when the river water is poured in, the turbulent river will show its turbulent momentum, and the water will rush forward from top to bottom and become more and more rapid. When it comes out of the river, it has already formed huge waves and flooded all around.


    Seeing this scene, Zhao Yun looked solemn.


    Even though he knew that under the scouring of the river, the low-lying part of peacock ridge would turn into a swamp, and even countless people would submerge it, Zhao Yun had no choice.


    Because Daqin has to win.


    Because Daqin must defeat Kushan.


    "Retreat!"


    Zhao Yun saw the river water irrigation and erosion, and his heart was full of joy and expectation. Now in this case, he is no longer needed to participate, so Zhao Yun decisively ordered the withdrawal.


    The river flows into peacock ridge, and the water is vast and flowing continuously.


    The cavalry of Baima Yicong quickly mounted the horse and went to the direction of peacock ridge. They should rush back to peacock ridge before the end of the war, otherwise they will not be able to participate in the war.


    In peacock ridge, the Kushan army took their seats in twos and threes.


    Everyone talks about it.


    They all said that they would win the battle, and they thought about the possibility of fighting with the army next. In a word, all Kushan soldiers are full of expectations. No one has worries and doubts on his face.


    But at the moment, on the half slope away from peacock ridge, the torrent of the river, like the Tianhe River, is pouring down.


    "Wow!"


    The water flowed and flowered.


    Boom!!


    Under the river, it makes a deafening sound and advances at the fastest speed. This kind of water potential is very fast, and in a twinkling of an eye, it is closer and closer to the garrison position led by chalky.


    Today, galky still keeps his eyes closed.


    He waited for the Qin army to enter.


    All of a sudden, galky''s ear moved, and his face suddenly became cold. After all, he had been through the battlefield for a long time. As soon as he heard the sound, he understood it a moment later and cried out in panic: "hide, hide, the flood is coming."


    At this moment, galky''s heart is full of shock.


    How is that possible?


    The information he got was that the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu had arrived at peacock ridge, but had not yet entered. But now, the flood comes first and doesn''t give him the chance to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    In the twinkling of an eye, there has been a torrential flood. The flood was magnificent and fierce, and it was nearly one person high.


    "Run away!"


    In the crowd, soldiers were shouting.


    "Run away!"


    More soldiers yelled.


    It''s a scene beyond their imagination. The peacock army should enter the Qinling mountains again according to the plan. But now, the Qin army has not entered, the flood has come, this is not flooding the Qin army, but flooding them, so one by one all panic to flee around.


    When galky saw this, he had a bad feeling in his heart.


    "Wow!"


    A spray came and hit on galky, so that galky could not stand firmly in the spray and was directly overturned on the ground. Fortunately, there are trees around here. He was rushed out of a certain distance, hit the trees and stopped immediately.


    The rest of the Kushan soldiers are the same.


    It''s all like this. It''s all upside down.


    Thanks to this area, there are countless forests. Otherwise, this flood alone will bring disaster to all the soldiers under chalky''s command.


    Garji had already stood up. He quickly climbed up a tree and exclaimed, "sayeqi, sayeqi, you son of a bitch, where have you been. You are not saying that Zhang Xiu promised to rescue, why now outside peacock ridge, but don''t come in. Now the flood is coming, and our army suffers first. "Not far from garji, sayeqi squatted on a big tree that was hugged by one person. He has been squatting under the big tree, and at the moment of the flood, he directly climbed up, so he was not affected by the flood.


    On hearing garji''s cry, sayeqi exclaimed: "general, Zhang Xiude has indeed agreed to come to the rescue. Now, Zhang Xiu has come. But why he didn''t enter, and why the Pamir river came first, I don''t know. "


    Listening to sayeqi''s reply, garji was furious.


    The plan failed.


    He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity of the flood to wash the Qin army, but it was completely gone. Even now his soldiers have become drowned, and they all have to climb up the branches or stand in the water, which is very embarrassed.


    "No, the water is still rising. Let''s go. Let''s rush out of peacock ridge. Let''s rush out. If we don''t rush out, we will all be submerged in the low-lying area of peacock ridge. "


    Garji stood in the water and found that the water level was rising rapidly.


    In low-lying areas, there are countless rivers converging.


    So that the water level rises.


    In particular, the water is continuously drained from the Pamir river. Without filling peacock ridge, the water of the Pamir river will continue to flow in.


    It can be predicted that Kongling will become a lake due to the diversion of Pamir river.


    One by one, the soldiers under chalky''s command ran in panic.


    All of them keep running away.


    They all began to climb the peacock ridge.


    The water level is still rising. Fortunately, the higher the water level is, the slower the water level will rise. After all, the higher the water level is, the wider the peacock ridge is, and the more difficult it is to fill it. It will take quite a long time.


    But today''s chalky people are all in a mess.


    First it was washed by the river.


    Then, he kept climbing up, tired.


    As the people kept climbing up and getting closer to the top, especially when they got close to the west exit of peacock ridge, that is, the direction of Wulei City, they were surprised to see that the black Qin army appeared above peacock ridge.


    One by one, the Qin army, with bows and arrows, aimed at them as they were charging upward.


    Zhang Xiu stands out in the front.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the most forward of garji and said in a loud voice: "garji, you really wasted my trust. You killed Vasudeva first to surrender to me, but I believe you and use you to lead the army. I didn''t expect that you rebelled against me and intended to calculate my army. Now, what do you have to say? "


    Boom!


    When garji saw Zhang Xiu, his brain exploded.


    He was in a daze.


    Why is Zhang Xiu here.


    "Zhang Xiu, you are clearly at the east entrance of peacock ridge. This is the west exit near Wulei city. You enter Wulei city from the East, then leave from the west, close to Wulei city. You didn''t enter peacock ridge. How did you get here? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the road to Wulei city doesn''t have to go inside peacock ridge. It''s the same from above peacock ridge. It will take a little time, but it can be reached


    Gargi sighed in his heart.


    It''s over!


    He''s done!


    He betrayed Zhang Xiu, but now, he is blocked by Zhang Xiu. In particular, the other officers and men under his command had gone through the flood before, and many soldiers lost their weapons. In particular, the officers and men were in a mess, and it was difficult to fight.


    On this premise, he will surely lose.


    "Plop!"


    Without hesitation, chalky knelt down and cried out, "Your Majesty, I''m wrong. I know I''m wrong. I am willing to submit to your majesty, only your majesty can spare my life. Since then, I''ve been working for your majesty. I only hope that your majesty can raise your hand. "


    He chose to surrender without hesitation.


    After all, galky now has no choice.

 Chapter 1270

    Zhang Xiu raised a look of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth. Garji was really flexible. In order to survive, she dared to do anything. In order to survive, jiaerji can kill weisudiva at all costs; in order to be powerful, jiaerji can turn away from Daqin, who has already surrendered; in order to save his life, jiaerji can kowtow to Zhang Xiu and beg for mercy.


    Everything is for power and life.


    For garji, as long as he gains power and can save his life, there is nothing he dares to do.


    This is the idea of chalky.


    He is a pragmatist.


    Such a person, popularly speaking, is born in the back of his head. He is an anti bony boy and an unfamiliar white eyed wolf. Such a person, no matter how can Zhang Xiu reuse.


    So in the face of garji''s plea for mercy, Zhang Xiu said faintly: "garji, I have given you the opportunity. Unfortunately, you didn''t grasp it. You arranged for sayeqi to act as a soldier to break through the encirclement and ask for help, intending to calculate me in peacock ridge. "


    "Unfortunately, your micro navigation is not worth mentioning. So I''ll make a stratagem to have people destroy the soldiers of no thunder city on the Bank of Pamir. First, I''ll dig up the river bank to release water, so that your soldiers will be flooded. "


    "Now that the water level is rising, it''s impossible for you to escape."


    "Peacock ridge is the place where you are buried."


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "don''t you find that now you don''t see sayeqi around you? When he took advantage of the upward evacuation, he had already stepped out and came to me. "


    Garji looked around, but he didn''t see sayeqi.


    He looked around Zhang Xiu and finally saw the figure of sayeqi. This whole body wet SA Ye Qi, is already hiding in Zhang Xiu''s side, a relief appearance.


    "Sayeqi, damn you!"


    Gorky roared.


    At this moment, he already understood that it must be sayeqi who went to see Zhang Xiu, but instead of completing the task, he revealed all the information, so that Zhang Xiu took action in advance.


    Sayeqi said nothing.


    Now, he doesn''t plan to take care of chalky. After all, in his eyes, chalky is already a dead man.


    It''s not worth mentioning.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the anger is more close to despair of garji, a wave of his hand, suddenly, his archers all let go. Just listen to the dense sound of breaking through the air, just like raindrops of bows and arrows, passing through the air, then they shot at garji and his Kushan soldiers.


    "Puchi! Wheezing


    Bow and arrow into the body, a Kushan soldiers scream.


    "Ah


    And chalky himself cried bitterly, for he could not escape, so that he was shot in the shoulder. Garji wanted to turn back, but the flood not far behind him still rose a little bit, and the river became wider and wider. Once it falls into the water, garji will not be able to swim. After it falls into the water, there must be death and no life.


    But ahead, there was a dense rain of arrows.


    In addition, Daqin''s army formation.


    At this moment, chalky is still in a dilemma. He clenched his fist and his face showed remorse. He was unwilling to be killed, so he once again cried out that he was willing to surrender, hoping that Zhang Xiu would accept him.


    But Zhang Xiu never paid attention to it.


    Galky''s useless.


    If such a person is kept, it is better to kill him than to harm others and yourself.


    "No, I don''t want to die."


    When garji saw that Zhang Xiu ignored him, he cried out. He can''t retreat because it''s a dead end. So he ordered his soldiers to rush forward, intending to break through.


    More and more guishuang soldiers keep rushing forward, but they are surrounded by archers. Under the pressure of archers, none of guishuang soldiers can rush up and die at the exit.


    The water level in the rear is still climbing a little bit.


    In addition to the Kushan soldiers who were shot, many of them were submerged and disappeared in the river.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the gal Ji that evades everywhere, the heart sneers.


    The man is still hiding.


    I want to live.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu reached out her hand, she took an iron bow from the soldier''s hand. He took out a bow and arrow and put it on the bow string. The arrow aimed in the direction of galky.


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu gave a low drink.


    Just listen to the bow string vibration, in an instant, the arrow flies out like a meteor, leaving a vague shadow in the air. The next moment, the bow and arrow had reached garji.


    As soon as galky heard the sound of breaking the air, he didn''t have time to respond. The arrow had already hit galky''s forehead.


    An arrow went through it.


    Without even making a sound, garji fell down with his head up. After a few turns, he fell into the rising water and disappeared.


    After galky was killed, the rest of the Kushan soldiers were even more worried.


    One by one, they were terrified.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the screaming soldiers and struggling soldiers, with a cold face and no sympathy. Because this is a war. When the two countries fight, countless people will be killed.This is the most normal.


    And the worst.


    Screams are still ringing one after another, more and more Kushan soldiers fall in peacock ridge.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just at this time, a sentinel flying horse came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, in the direction of Wulei City, there is an army of guishuang. The strength of the other side is about 60000. "


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu said with a cold smile, "I''m afraid Ji Mu won''t come. Now that Ji Mu is here, it''s easy to do. Pass the order to Ganning and beat me hard. You must kill Ji Mu. "


    "Here it is


    The sentry turned and retreated.


    Zhang Xiu led the troops to block here, but Gan Ning''s troops were ambushed three miles away in the rear. The reason for this is that we are worried that Ji Mu''s army will kill us in the direction of Wulei city to prevent the rear from chaos.


    Now, Ji Mu has come.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the dead and wounded soldiers of Kushan. He orders them to continue to guard the place and shoot them. Then, Zhang Xiu takes Guo Jia, Pang Tong and Xun Yu and others and turns to the area three li away from the back.


    This place is a highland.


    The army led by Gan Ning was lying in ambush on the mountain, not only setting up artillery, but also gathering troops. As long as we guard this highland, we can remotely control the road from the foot of the mountain to peacock ridge, and block the help of Wulei city to peacock ridge.


    Ganning on the mountain, waiting quietly.


    While Ganning was waiting, he heard the direction of peacock ridge in the rear, and there was a faint cry of killing. He knew that the direction of peacock ridge was at war. Under such a premise, there may be war here.


    Time went by, and after a short time, a sentinel came back to Ganning and reported: "general, the direction of Wulei City, the army of Wulei city. It has nearly 60000 troops. The leader is Ji Mu, the leader of Wulei city. It''s less than a quarter of an hour away from us. "


    Gan Ning said excitedly: "finally, I''m here. I''ll send orders to all the artillery to cheer me up. As soon as the enemy comes, I will fire at Laozi as soon as I give the order. "


    "Here it is


    When the sentry got the order, he immediately sent the order.


    All the officers and men were ordered to cheer up and wait for the arrival of the Kushan army.

 Chapter 1271

    The soldiers of Wulei city led by Ji Mu are on their way to peacock ridge. In fact, although Ji Mu rushed to peacock ridge, he was not very willing, because according to the plan, he should have received the news of the action along the Pamir River, and then led the troops to encircle the Qin army. But this time, he didn''t get the news.


    But the Pamir river has been dug up again.


    According to the information reported by the front-line sentinel, the embankment of the Pamir river has been excavated, and the turbulent water has washed into peacock ridge. Especially now, garji has been attacked by the army of Zhang Xiu of the Qin Dynasty.


    As soon as Ji Mu heard about this situation, he knew which link must have gone wrong.


    Otherwise, it will not be in a mess.


    Under such a premise, Ji Mu is not suitable to join in the battle, because once he takes part in the battle, his troops will also get involved and it is difficult to get out of it.


    But the problem is that Jimu is now an ally of garji, with kujiula''s persuasion. In any case, Ji Mu couldn''t stay out of the trouble. He had to lead the soldiers to help.


    Even so, Ji Mu is cautious.


    The soldiers of peacock mountain are getting closer and closer to LiuLei city.


    Jimu is closer to the highland where Ganning is. When Gan Ning looked far away, he could see the black crowd and roughly estimated the distance between the two sides. Within the range of the cannon, Gan Ning did not hesitate and decisively ordered: "fire!"


    With an order to fire, the soldiers quickly loaded the shells and lit the fuse.


    "Ho! Ho


    The fuse burns, and the next moment, a cannon makes a deafening sound, and you can see a shell flying from the mountain, passing an arc in the air, and flying to Jimu''s location.


    The shells flew through the air and soon reached the top of the Kushan soldiers under Ji Mu''s command.


    Immediately, it fell into the crowd.


    "Boom!"


    The shell exploded violently.


    "Boom!!"


    One after another, the shells exploded, making Ji Mu''s soldiers lose countless, and even more, the soldiers were in chaos. At this moment, the guishuang army, which had a strict lineup, was in a mess.


    Ji Mu saw his soldiers in chaos, looked up at the direction of the shells, and immediately locked the highland where Ganning was. He judged the position of Gan Ning and the others, frowned and looked solemn.


    It''s not good!


    If he insists on going to peacock ridge, his army will surely be bombarded and suffer heavy losses. Under such a premise, even if you arrive at peacock ridge, it is difficult to compete with the Qin army.


    This is what Ji Mu doesn''t want.


    Ji Mu thought about it quickly, then looked at kujiula and said, "kujiula, you can see the situation now. The Qin army not only stationed in kongqueling, but also arranged people to stop us from rushing for help. If we want to break through by force, we will lose countless soldiers. Even if we can reach peacock ridge, I''m afraid we are not Qin''s opponents. "


    Kujiula said, "what does the Lord mean?"


    Ji Mu said: "I mean, withdraw immediately and return to Wulei city. The city of Wulei city is solid, and there are many defensive measures and cannons on the top of the city, which can resist the Qin army. Now, it is not convenient for us to be the enemy of the Qin army. "


    Kujiula''s face became very dignified.


    He''s weighing it in his heart.


    Garji was one of the keys for him to go south to seize the power of Kushan. If he lost garji, kujiula would have broken his arm. But if we rush to help garji now, it may lead to Jimu and garji being cut off by the Qin army.


    This is what kujura doesn''t want to see.


    "Go away!"


    Kujiula hesitated and gave the order to retreat.


    Ji Mu hears the speech, the corner of his mouth raises a smile, he knows that kujiula will agree to withdraw. The reason why he asked kujiula was to maintain the superficial respect.


    "Withdraw, withdraw to no thunder city."


    Ji Mu immediately ordered.


    With Ji Mu''s order, the army retreated quickly. If you go to the peacock ridge, Ji Mu''s army will be bombarded one after another. However, the retreat was different. After a short distance, the artillery was out of the range, making Ganning''s artillery unable to bomb Jimu''s army.


    Ganning was a bit surprised.


    He didn''t expect that Ji Mu, who came from Wulei City, would directly admit to retreat and give up on galky.


    This is unexpected.


    Gan Ning didn''t pursue him either, because if he attacks now, he may not be able to win Ji Mu. Moreover, on the official road leading to Wulei City, there may be ambush of Jimu in Wulei City, so Ganning never pursued.


    Ganning takes time to recover. Zhang Xiu leads the army and comes from the rear. What Zhang Xiu thinks is the scene of fierce fighting between the two sides. In particular, Ganning will pay a certain price to stop Ji Mu.


    But now, there has been no war.Zhang Xiu asked: "xingba, what''s the matter. No thunder city army that originally came to peacock ridge, no matter how many people were there. The information reported by the sentinel is that Ji Mu has come with his soldiers. "


    Ganning said: "in reply to your majesty, Ji Mu really led the army to peacock ridge, intending to rescue garji. However, after Ji Mu was shelled, he resolutely abandoned the rescue of garji and left directly. So it''s the scene of the moment. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned at this.


    This is not simple.


    When in danger, decisive stop loss withdrawal, to ensure that the strength of the army without thunder city will not be damaged. If Ji Mu continues to move forward, he will be bombed by Ganning first, and then meet Zhang Xiu''s army, and he will be left in peacock ridge.


    Ji Mu retreats decisively, and Zhang Xiu''s plan fails.


    This is Ji Mu''s most cunning.


    This person is not easy to deal with.


    In other words, Ji Mu is the most cunning one among the many important ministers of Kushan that Zhang Xiu met. In fact, neither vesudeva, nor galchi, nor the rest, would be so willing to withdraw. However, Ji Mu didn''t show off his ability, but retreated directly to preserve his strength. Such a situation, Ling ran looked at it with new eyes.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "since Ji Mu has returned to Wulei City, we will go to Wulei city. When the order goes on, the army will continue to march to Wulei city. "


    "Here it is


    The herald got the order. Let''s go down immediately.


    The army set out and began to march toward Wulei city.


    This time, Zhang Xiu''s troops were more than 100000, and the army was strong and powerful, with artillery and many other weapons. The army followed Ji Mu to the direction of Wulei city.


    When Ji Mu just returned to Wulei City, he learned that Zhang Xiu''s army was coming to Wulei city.


    His face turned black.


    Here comes Zhang Xiu!


    This means that chalky has been defeated.


    Now the only one who resists Zhang Xiu is the Lord of Wulei city. In such a situation, even Ji Mu, who is both civil and military, is a veteran on the battlefield, and also feels great pressure.


    Ji Mu didn''t dare to delay. He immediately took kujiula to the upper floor of the city to arrange the garrison. In particular, on the upper floor of Wulei City, there are also cannons on display.


    Once the enemy gets close, these cannons can bombard the enemy.


    This is the weapon of the city.


    After Ji Mu had arranged everything, Zhang Xiu''s army also followed and arrived outside the city of no thunder. However, Zhang Xiu''s army was spread out to avoid being bombarded too closely.


    Zhang Xiu rode in front of him. He looked up at the city without thunder, with a sharp look on his face. Now, he has to take no thunder city, because the army needs supplies.


    According to Xun Yu, after they entered Kushan, they had to find a way to be self-sufficient. Otherwise, relying solely on domestic transportation of grain will raise the cost, which is not conducive to the war.


    Zhang Xiu tossed the ground and said: "Lord of Wulei City, where is Ji Mu?"


    "I am!"


    Ji Mu stood on the tower with sharp eyes.


    Dressed in armor, he said forcefully, "Zhang Xiu, you are the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Now, it''s Qin''s intruding army. Now, I have arranged for sentinels to go to Peshawar, the capital of China, for help. It won''t be long before reinforcements arrive. Even if you have a strong army and considerable strength, you can''t stop our Kushan army. "


    Zhang Xiu confidently said: "it''s nothing to worry about just a city without thunder. Ji Mu, I give you a choice. Now you kill kujiula and surrender to me, then I can continue to let you be the leader of Wulei city. On the contrary, if you insist on resisting, then the fall of chalky is a lesson for you. "


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "I''m on the upper floor of the city. I''d like to see how you soldiers of the Qin Dynasty can break the city defense of my thunder free city. Zhang Xiu, if you have any means, just use it. "


    When Zhang Xiu was about to speak, a sentinel came to her side, lowered his voice, and reported: "Your Majesty, all the artillery are in place, ready to fire."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face.


    The reason why he talks nonsense with Ji Mu is not to make friends or to persuade Ji Mu. Because it is not easy to persuade either Jimu or kujiula.


    What Zhang Xiu wants to do is to delay time and fight for time for artillery action.


    Then, Zhang Xiu wants to bombard Wulei city.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Ji Mu and says in a deep voice: "Ji Mu, you are very good. It''s a pity that you are too conceited to hold on. However, in my eyes, this solid city without thunder is like a ruin. "


    "Fire!"


    Zhang Xiu suddenly roared.


    His roar, already burst out all over the strength of the cry. So after this powerful voice came out, it clearly spread to the rear, and one by one the soldiers controlling the artillery heard it.Everyone heard the news and lit the fuse.


    The line of fire is burning and rattling.


    A moment later, there was a roar of artillery. A gun, the barrel of the smoke, fired pills. However, after the first round of artillery, all the soldiers loaded shells again and continued to bombard Wulei city.


    When the first shell fell on the soldiers from the city floor, it exploded immediately, killing and injuring countless people. Make the city upstairs defense, a panic. After all, the watchman on the top of the city is kujiula, and many orders still need kujiula''s approval. Without kujiula''s order to surrender, no matter how messy the soldiers were, the national army would not care.

 Chapter 1272

    Jimu and kujiula are in charge of their own cities. The problem is that kujiula is inexperienced after all. When he encounters such a big scene, he is at a loss.


    Ji Mu had to step in immediately and ordered the soldiers to organize resistance.


    At the same time, the artillery in the city quickly gathered and already ignited the artillery. A big gun boomed, and shells swept across the air, flew over the city, and began to fall to the Qin army outside the city.


    Boom!!


    Colossus, from the earth.


    "Boom!!"


    One after another, the sound of explosions reverberated in the air, and some of the Qin soldiers were bombed by shells, so they quickly avoided the shells.


    The artillery of Qin army is still bombing Wulei city.


    Now, inside and outside the city, it''s all gunfire.


    The original solid city without thunder, under the bombing of a shell, the wall cracked, the wall cracked. Even though the city wall is solid, but under the bombardment of cannons, no thunder city has been constantly collapsing.


    At this moment, Ji Mu''s face became more and more serious.


    The city is collapsing, and it''s almost impossible to keep it.


    When kujiula really encountered such a fight, he panicked in his heart and said in a loud voice: "Lord Jimu, what should we do now? With the continuous collapse of the city wall, the Qin army was able to rush into the city from the collapsed place. What should we do now? "


    In his heart, he was afraid.


    Because I can''t stop it.


    Ji Mu''s face is incomparably calm, light way: "nine princes, just one or two gaps, not worth mentioning. What''s more, I have already foreseen such a situation, so I don''t have to worry about it. "


    "Ah


    Kujiula heard a scream.


    It''s all foreseen.


    At the same time, kujiula calmed down and said, "Lord, I will not take part in the command. You are in charge of this war, and I will be at your disposal. "


    He knows what he can do.


    Although kujiula''s personal martial arts are quite powerful, in fact, kujiula has never experienced a real battle. Therefore, kujiula has no experience and is difficult to make the most accurate judgment.


    Ji Mu said, "Ninth prince, you go down to the castle immediately. Then, return to the position of the archers in the rear. You have two tasks. First, organize archers to shoot Qin soldiers who rush in from the collapse. Second, once the Qin army broke through the shooting range of bows and arrows, it organized soldiers to intercept and kill the advancing Qin army. In a word, we must keep the Qin army out of Wulei city. "


    After a pause, Ji Mu said: "the collapse of the city has no effect. The most important thing is the fighting after the Qin army broke through the city, even in the city. "


    Kujiula nodded busily.


    At this time, it reflects Ji Mu''s wisdom and sophistication. Even now, the situation is precarious. However, Ji Mu did not panic at all, and he still arranged the command in an orderly way.


    This is Ji Mu''s strength.


    Kujiula didn''t dare to delay, so he immediately turned down the castle and quickly went to the position of archers in the city.


    The shelling is still going on at the moment.


    Explosions, one after another.


    Although the Qin army was injured many times, it was a small number of casualties, which was not worth mentioning. However, the city of Wulei city is constantly collapsing. Up to now, three places have collapsed.


    The collapse was six feet wide enough for soldiers to rush in.


    Especially the bombing continues.


    The collapse will continue to expand.


    Zhang Xiu sits in front of the army. He looks at the bombing of the city tower from a distance, but everything on the city tower is still as steady as a mountain, without any panic.


    "Ji Mu, it''s not easy."


    Zhang Xiu sighed.


    Pang Tong said: "what your majesty said is very true. In other words, ordinary people guard the city building. Once the city building collapses, the city will panic and countless people will flee. But from the beginning to the end, there was no turbulence in the city, and no one ran around. In particular, the artillery bombardment in the city never stopped. It can be seen that the focus of this battle should be on the siege. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes narrowed and said: "once we invade from the site where the city collapses, we will be strongly blocked by the Kushan soldiers. As for Wulei City, it will weaken us with the help of the city to the greatest extent and cause harm to us. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement.


    That''s true.


    Ji Mu''s choice now must be to take the city as a shelter, and then use the city to defend and attack, weaken the Qin army under Zhang Xiu''s command, so as to achieve the goal of victory.


    "Your Majesty, please fight."


    Shamoko stepped forward and saluted.


    This siege, shamoko no pressure, is used to. If he doesn''t attack because he may encounter arrow rain in front of him and be resisted by Kushan soldiers, he will be too cowardly.Shamoko dares to fight.


    Lu Bu also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please fight."


    Today''s Lu Bu, after the breakthrough of martial arts, the whole person''s force value has reached the peak. A painting halberd in hand, hard and soft, killing power is simply shocking.


    Lu Bu, Zhao Yun and others also asked to fight one after another.


    Now the city has collapsed, showing the gap, and can attack.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the voice of the people asking for a fight, but she said with a smile: "don''t worry, don''t worry. Now what we bomb is the city of no thunder city. It can be predicted that there must be forces in the city of no thunder city to specially block our forces rushing into the city. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu was silent and didn''t speak immediately.


    He calculated the distance in his heart.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu ordered: "order artillery, mobilize 45 guns, divided into three groups. Each group aimed at the direction of the city''s collapse. Adjust the height and angle of artillery bombardment and bombard the city at a distance of 60 to 80 steps. "


    "Here it is


    The herald got the order and went to inform immediately.


    Lu Bu was puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, what is this for?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I expect that there must be an army formation in the city, waiting for our troops to enter from the collapse and then stop. So, first bombard for a while, add a little pressure to the other side. Of course, even if there is no army in the city without thunder, it is just a little shell loss for us, and it has no impact. "


    Lu Bu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Soon after, 45 cannons had adjusted their angles and positions and fired again.


    A shell swept through the air, crossed a parabola in the air, fell into the city, and fell 60 to 80 steps away from the collapse.


    This distance is exactly where the archers line up.


    Kujura is in the archers.


    When he saw the shells coming, his face was shocked and frightened, because it was beyond imagination. The army led by Zhang Xiu was clearly outside the city. However, it was incredible to bombard the position of the archer array accurately.


    "Spread out, spread out."


    Kujiula gave a loud order, and he also stepped back decisively.


    At the same time, one by one archers, as well as soldiers arrayed behind archers, all retreated quickly. Rao was so slow. The shell landed and exploded, and many soldiers were killed on the spot.


    A round of shelling, countless casualties.


    After all, the archers and the infantry in the rear were unprepared, leading to large-scale casualties.

 Chapter 1273

    Kujiula looked at the pockmarked ground after the explosion, his cheeks twitching, his eyes showing shock and horror.


    How is that possible?


    They are in the city. There are walls to block the sight. They can''t be found. In particular, the city upstairs, the explosion continues, it is impossible that someone can inform Zhang Xiu, it is reasonable to say, Zhang Xiu should not be found.


    But he was bombarded by Zhang Xiu.


    Think of here, kujiula back a burst of cold, feel and Zhang Xiu enemy, really is not a wise thing. Because in any case, kujiula can''t imagine why he was bombarded.


    The fact is, they were bombarded.


    Kujura regained his mind and calmed himself down. Even now, kujiula is unwilling to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. However, kujiula has no way to go back, can only be forced to rush up.


    Biting his teeth, he kept directing the soldiers to avoid the shells, and then formed in the rear again.


    It''s just a retreat, a hundred steps away.


    Although the shell did not fall into the crowd again, the archer''s control of the collapse site was much weaker at a distance of 100 steps. Such a situation is unacceptable to kujiula. He looked around, looked at the place where the shell fell, and immediately ordered his archers to make a detour from both sides, and stop at a distance of about 60 steps ahead.


    The shelling lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Zhang Xiu looked at Lv Bu, Sha Mo Ke and Gan Ning and said, "you three will lead a thousand soldiers to kill them from the collapsed area. After you have a foothold, immediately open the gate of Wulei city to welcome the army into the city. As long as our army enters Wulei City, everything will be easy. "


    "Here it is


    Shamoko, Lubu and Ganning all joined in.


    All three of them have high morale.


    Even the three people looked at each other, one by one, and there was something stronger. Because this time, they attacked three collapsed sites at the same time, so there was a certain contest among the three people, just to see who could open the gate of Wulei city first.


    "Kill


    Shamoko drinks low, and has already rushed out with the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    Because they wanted to cross the collapsed city wall, no one rode on horseback. They all rushed forward on foot. At the moment of shamoko''s killing, Lu Bu and Gan Ning were unwilling to lag behind and took their own soldiers to sprint.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the tower of Wulei city. He knew that once he ordered the soldiers to launch an offensive, there must be archers and other people who would block the tower. So Zhang Xiu immediately adjusted the plan of shelling, and ordered the artillery under her command to shelling the tower with all their strength, instead of being the place where the shelling collapsed.


    After all, Ganning, Lubu and shamoko are now leading their troops through the collapsed city wall. If they continue to bombard this area at this time, they will lose countless troops.


    Shelling the tower is the power to suppress it.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    A shell, skimming from the air, landed on the city floor, suppressing the city floor without thunder city forces. Even so, Ji Mu didn''t have any flustered mood. He was still calm and gave orders to kujiula in the city to prepare to resist. In addition, the soldiers on the upper floor of the city were also arranged to shoot as many arrows as possible to kill the soldiers of the Qin army.


    Ji Mu had never thought of using the city to block Zhang Xiu''s attack. The city was just a bunker.


    Once the city can''t stop it, retreat directly.


    With the shelter in the city.


    In a short time, the soldiers led by Ganning, Lubu and shamoko had reached the collapse site and began to kill in. However, as soon as the army entered the city, kujiula commanded the soldiers to shoot arrows.


    Dense bows and arrows from inside the city.


    Like a rain of arrows, it fell on the crowd and killed countless people.


    Shamoko waved the bone of Tribulus terrestris in his hand and kept rushing forward. A shot of the bow and arrow, was the bone of Tribulus terrestris swing open, he led the army quickly forward.


    On the other hand, Lu Bu and Gan Ning also led the soldiers to rush forward.


    But the archers kept on shooting to stop the advance of shamoko, Ganning and Lubu. At the same time, the city''s infantry also killed out, quickly involved in the battlefield, blocking Lu Bu and others.


    When the two sides began to fight, kujiula had ordered the soldiers to stop archery, constantly mobilized the soldiers to charge, and even surrounded the troops led by Lubu, shamoko and Ganning.


    "Kill, kill me!"


    Kujura growled.


    He clenched his fist and wanted to kill the Qin army immediately.


    Kujiula himself has been practicing martial arts all the year round. Even he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he is very good at martial arts. If it comes to commanding on the battlefield, kujiula is not good at it. After all, he lacks experience and experience.


    However, kujiula is good at the contest of martial arts. His martial arts are very strong in the Kushan royal family. Even many of Kushan''s generals are not his rivals.


    "Come on, take my knife!"


    Kujiula said.


    A soldier handed a six foot long sword with a thick back and sharp blade. Especially on the back of the sword, there are circles of iron rings. With the waving of the sword, the iron rings collide with the back of the sword and tinkle, which can disturb people''s mind.Kujiula waved and held his sword.


    "Kill


    Kujiula yells. He goes straight to shamoko. In kujiula''s opinion, he felt that shamoko was too tyrannical and had a great influence. He killed shamoko first and seized the offensive of the Qin army.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Kujura''s feet are on and on, charging fast.


    In a short time, kujiula was in front of shamoko. Seeing a soldier of Qin army resist, Ku Jiu swung his six foot long knife and cut it down.


    A knife fell and fell on the soldier''s sword. In a face-to-face collision, the Qin soldiers'' weapons fell, the blade fell, and a knife split the Qin soldiers in two.


    "Cheery, cheery!"


    Kujiula roared, and the whole person was very excited.


    Previously, because of his inexperience in the city tower, he was flustered to deal with the loss. At this moment, all of his frustrations disappeared, and all of his frustrations erupted and turned into killing.


    Kujiula is really not familiar with the command of the battle array. However, he was familiar with fighting, he was familiar with killing. He killed a soldier of Qin army with one knife, and then he chopped at shamoke with his sword.


    The blade fell and turned into a streamer.


    Its momentum is extremely fierce.


    Shamoko noticed the killing behind him, with a look of disdain on his lips. In the hands of the Tribulus terrestris a turn, then boldly welcomed the sword of kujiula.


    When the two weapons collided, the place where they collided was Mars. Even the two people who collided also retreated three steps at this moment to stabilize their bodies.


    "Good, good!"


    Kujiula''s eyes were sharp and arrogant.


    He was extremely confident in his own strength. After a face-to-face encounter with shamoko, he played regardless of the top and bottom. So kujiula praised him one after another, but said, "you must die in my hands."


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Shamoko''s hand clenched the bone of Tribulus terrestris in his hand. He used seven points to fight kujiula. However, the other side has already exerted 100% of its strength.


    It''s not difficult for him to kill kujiula.


    The iron thistle in shamoke''s hand swung slowly and said, "remember, it''s shamoke who killed you. You will die in my hands today. "


    Kujiula held his head high and said confidently, "you are very rampant. Just as you are more rampant, you will die more miserably. You remember, the one who killed you was kujiula, the ninth Prince of Kushan. I am the ninth Prince of Kushan


    "Kill


    Kujiula drinks low and sprints with a knife.

 Chapter 1274

    On shamoko''s rough cheek was a grim look. He is more excited because the person in front of him is the ninth Prince of Kushan. To kill a prince of Kushan is a great pressure on Wulei city.


    At this moment, shamoko stood on the ground with the sole of his foot and twisted his waist to exert his power. The surging power burst out of his body, poured into his hands, and firmly grasped the bone of Tribulus terrestris.


    The huge Tribulus terrestris was swept in the air, and then it ran into kujiula''s sword.


    Knife light, stick shadow.


    The next moment, they collide.


    "Dang!"


    Violent collision, suddenly resounded in the city.


    "What, impossible."


    Kujiula''s eyes widened and his face was shocked. When he fought with shamoko before, he found that although he was powerful, he was also within the range of tolerance. As long as kujiula goes all out and relies on his rich fighting experience, he is sure to kill shamoko.


    But at this moment, when the weapons of the two sides collided, the strength from the bone of Tribulus terrestris increased too much. The overwhelming power makes kujiula''s hand numb.


    "Kick! Kick off


    Kujiula was unsteady and retreated one after another.


    He took five steps back to stabilize his staggering figure. However, his hand holding the sword was slightly painful, and even the tiger''s mouth felt torn.


    In front of him, shamoko is much more powerful.


    "Boy, die!"


    However, shamoko was completely unaffected. After gaining an advantage, he stepped forward and strode to catch up with kujiula when he retreated. For a veteran like shamoko who has been on the battlefield for a long time, he is extremely keen in his grasp of the fighter plane.


    When kujiula was defeated, shamoko seized the opportunity to gain the advantage of the war.


    When kujiula had just stabilized his figure, shamoko had already come to kujiula''s body. The iron thistle in his hand swung up from the air, with a sharp whistling sound, and his head fell from kujiula''s head.


    One move is ferocious.


    One move is inevitable.


    Kujiula''s face to shamoko''s this move, found that he could not avoid, can only be hard to resist. He held the handle of the sword in both hands and lifted it up to block.


    "Dang!"


    The bone of Tribulus terrestris is striking the blade.


    The fierce and domineering power poured from the bone of Tribulus terrestris to the blade. For a moment, kujiula felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His whole body was in pain, and his knees were uncontrollable. He knelt on the ground with a plop.


    It''s really the strength of shamoko.


    He couldn''t bear it at all.


    At this moment, kujiula''s face is full of ferocious pain, incomparably uncomfortable. Even when he held the handle of the knife, the tiger''s mouth was torn. When he knelt down, his arm was still torn, especially when he was on the ground.


    Kujura was biting his teeth and resisting.


    The corners of shamoko''s mouth rose, his white teeth showed, and he said, "come again, boy!"


    With a sound, shamoko''s Tribulus terrestris once again swung up, and it was already in the air. Kujiula didn''t even have a chance to relax. He didn''t even take a breath at all. The iron tribulus of shamoko fell down again.


    This blow is even more powerful.


    This blow is even more overbearing.


    Kujiula was helpless. In a hurry, he could only summon his strength again, hold the battle tightly, and stiffly block the sword.


    "Dang!"


    There was a loud crash.


    At the next moment, kujiula vomited blood in his mouth, the sword in his hand flew backward, and the iron thistle continued to fall.


    "Bang!"


    The flower of Tribulus terrestris fell on kujiula''s head.


    In a flash, his head broke, kujiula''s body immediately shrugged down and fell to the ground with a plop.


    At this moment, kujiula is dead and can''t die any more.


    Shamoko shook off the blood on the bone of Tribulus terrestris, looked up at the soldiers in front of him, and cried: "kujiula is dead, kill! Kill me


    He was carrying the flower of Tribulus terrestris and rushing forward. Where the Tribulus terrestris was passing by, the soldiers of Kushan were killed constantly. The blood splashed down and dyed shamoko''s clothes red, which made shamoko''s face covered with blood stains.


    He was like a demon.


    No one can stop them.


    "Prince kujiula has been killed. Get out, get out!"


    Some of the Kushan soldiers in Wulei city were shouting, and their faces were even more frightened. Because these people are already scared by shamoko and dare not be enemies with shamoko any more.


    When there were retreating Kushans, the others retreated one after another.


    For a moment, the soldiers of Kushan had no attack.


    No more resistance.


    When shamoko kept pushing forward, Lu Bu and Gan Ning also kept pushing inward and won.Lu Bu seized the opportunity and rushed to the city gate.


    In Ji Mu''s heart, even if kujiula was defeated, he would not be defeated immediately. However, kujiula himself went to battle, but he was killed by shamoko, which led to the collapse of the defense in the city, and could no longer stop the attack of the Qin army. So under the premise of constant retreat of Kushan soldiers, Lv Bu easily killed at the gate of the city and opened the gate of Wulei city.


    Zhang Xiu has been commanding outside the city.


    When Zhang Xiu sees the city gate open, she looks up at Ji Mu''s position on the upper floor of the city. With a wave of her hand, Zhang Ren has led the army to move quickly into the city.


    Ji Mu is still on the tower. When Ji Mu sees that kujiula has been killed, he scolds him. He dispatched archers and 6000 infantry to kujiula to stop the Qin army from entering the city.


    Unexpectedly, kujiula died first.


    So much so that the counterattack collapsed.


    Now, the Qin army began to enter the city on a large scale. After kujiula was killed, the soldiers in Wulei city collapsed. Even if Ji Mu wanted to fight again, it was difficult to fight with the Qin army.


    Ji Mu has no choice but to retreat.


    "Withdraw!"


    Ji Mu gave the order to retreat.


    He looked at the location of Zhang Xiu outside the city. With a brush of big sleeves, he quickly left the city building with his own guards and his soldiers, and then went straight to the west city of Wulei city to break through.


    After Ji Mu withdrew, Zhang Xiu''s army had already entered the city.


    The first thing for the army to do after entering the city is to seal up the grain depots and weapons depots to ensure that the grain and weapons are not damaged. In addition, he quickly controlled the four gates.


    When it''s all over, it''s almost evening.


    Ganning, Zhaoyun, Lvbu, shamoko and others have already come to the city Lord''s mansion.


    Gan Ning said: "Your Majesty, in this battle, we have killed more than 6000 Kushan soldiers. More than 13000 Kushan soldiers were captured. The rest of the Kushan army fled with Ji Mu. "


    Shamoko said excitedly: "Your Majesty, although Jimu, the Lord of Wulei City, fled, kujiula, the prince of Kushan, was killed by the last general. He has no head now, only a corpse left. "


    The rest, one by one, were quite excited.


    Because we won.


    This battle not only severely damaged the troops of Wulei City, but also captured Wulei City, which can be described as a great victory. Although Ji Mu fled, but for Zhang Xiu, a Ji Mu, insignificant, does not affect the overall situation.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Xun Yu and asked, "Wen Ruo, have you ever counted all the grain in the granary?"


    Xun Yu said: "report to your majesty, the grain in the granary has been counted. There are as many as one million stones of grain in it. In the next year or so, we must all worry about the supply of grain. In particular, there are many guns and ammunition in the armory. It''s a great harvest for us. "


    After a pause, Xun said: "the most important thing now is to stabilize the people. We enter Kushan not only for the purpose of conquering the city, but also for the purpose of capturing Kushan step by step and integrating Kushan into Daqin. Therefore, under such a premise, we must stabilize the people''s will and let the people identify with Daqin. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "what Wen Ruo said is true. What''s Wen ruo''s plan for today''s no thunder city?"


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, there is an obvious feature in Kushan, that is, the caste system of identity. Different people have different identities. Nobility is always nobility and pariah is always pariah. "


    "Such a situation, full of Kushan domestic, and no thunder city is the same."


    "Your Majesty wants to break the Kushan and integrate it into Daqin. Then the first thing your majesty will do is to break the noble class of Kushan, abolish the caste system of Kushan, and make everyone equal. "


    "Let the Kushan people be like the people of Daqin."


    "Even a poor family can be an official."


    "Even a poor family can have a family background."


    Xun Zheng said: "of course, this is the most critical point. In addition to this, there is also the appeal to the Kushan people, giving them the land to cultivate, opening warehouses to release grain, so that the people can tide over the difficulties In a word, through various schemes and methods, all the Kushan people gradually became the people of Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "if what Wen said is true, next, we will follow this plan."


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier entered.


    The soldier came to Ganning and said something in a low voice.


    After hearing this, Gan Ning waved his hand to let the soldiers back down, then looked at Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, in the cell of no thunder city, there are nearly ten thousand slaves in custody. How to deal with these people? This is what the soldiers have just discovered. Your majesty, please make a decision. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s really just mentioned, it''s coming. I didn''t expect that there were 10000 slaves in the prison of a city without thunder. It''s really not easy. Just as it happens, these slaves serve as a breakthroughSpeaking of this, Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "let''s go and have a look."


    He went out immediately.


    The rest of them, along with Zhang Xiu, left the city master''s mansion and went to the prison where slaves were held. When Zhang Xiu arrived at the prison, she saw the slaves inside.


    These people, all extremely weak, one by one skinny, eyes.


    Because on weekdays, these people have to work, and they do all kinds of things, such as mining, building bridges and roads, digging rivers and canals. These slaves had no food and no rest, so they were very weak.

 Chapter 1275

    It is said that there are many slaves in Daqin. These slaves were Gaogouli, Wuhuan and Kushan, but even as slaves, they were not so weak. Because the number of slaves in Daqin was limited, one died and one died, so even as slaves, these people could rest well and eat well.


    The slave of the precious frost is different.


    These slaves died, and more slaves came in.


    There''s a steady stream, and it''s not going to stop.


    Therefore, the Kushan people will not cherish the slaves. They will fight when they need to fight and clean up when they need to. These efforts can''t eat well and sleep well, and they have to bear high-intensity labor, so there are great casualties.


    Especially these slaves, as long as they become slaves, the people at the bottom of Kushan, will never be able to get rid of their native place, not only for themselves, but also for their own descendants.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "open the door."


    "Your Majesty, be careful!"


    Wang Yue stepped forward with a strong guard on his face, because he was worried that someone might be bad for Zhang Xiu. In particular, all the slaves were held together. If tens of thousands of them should riot, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    But Zhang Xiu shook her head and said confidently, "Wang Yue, don''t worry."


    With that, Zhang Xiu took two steps forward.


    He looked around at all the Kushan slaves, called the interpreter who was in charge of translation, and looked at the Kushan people who were listless, weak and even bent.


    These Kushan people, who are 60 or 70 years old, have bent back and can hardly support their back. There are also teenagers who have a tender face but dull eyes and lost their spirituality.


    Zhang Xiu threw a voice: "I am Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Today, the war broke the city of no thunder, destroyed the army of Ji Mu and captured the city of no thunder."


    After these words came out, the slaves did not change much.


    Eyes are still dull.


    For these slaves, changing one person has no effect. Because Ji Mu, the Lord of Wulei City, enslaved them and made them do things as slaves. Instead of today''s Zhang Xiu, they are enslaved.


    It makes no difference.


    So even if all the slaves heard Zhang Xiu''s words, their expressions didn''t change much.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression was calm, and she didn''t feel surprised.


    If just now he said that he had broken the city of no thunder, that he was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and that every slave was completely attached to him, and then they all looked excited, then there was a ghost.


    Zhang Xiu looked at a group of slaves with dull eyes and still numb expression, and continued: "I come from Daqin. Many of you have never heard of Daqin, and do not know Daqin in the Far East."


    "In the territory of the great Qin Dynasty, no one from the Qin Dynasty can be a slave. Everyone is born equal."


    "The people of the Qin Dynasty, who have cultivated land, enough food and clothing, will not be as yellow and thin as you are. They will not live on the edge of life and death all day long


    "Da Qin, treat every Qin people well."


    Zhang Xiu talks, when he talks, gradually, someone looks at Zhang Xiu, the dark eyes, a little more glory, no longer as dark as before.


    There is a glimmer of hope for this brilliance.


    Zhang Xiu was aware of the change of slaves. He knew that the reason why these slaves had this change was that he mentioned that the Qin people under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty were not slaves, which touched the hearts of slaves.


    Zhang Xiu said: "I just said that I broke the city of no thunder and expelled Ji Mu, the leader of the city. Today''s Wulei city no longer belongs to Kushan, but to Daqin. "


    "You are no longer Kushan people, but Qin people."


    "The Qin people are no longer slaves."


    "From now on, you have to be driven to work in the mines. You don''t have to worry about being in danger. You don''t have to worry about being beaten and flogged. You don''t have to worry about dying in this dark cell."


    "From today on, you are free."


    Zhang Xiu''s voice gradually became excited. His voice was even more clearly transmitted to the ears of all Kushan slaves, and everyone clearly heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    In the originally silent cell, there were more and more gasps and more comments. One by one, the already gloomy eyes gradually became bright.


    One by one originally decadent and desperate faces, gradually more moving, with a trace of glory, more hope. The atmosphere of death and silence began to live.


    Many guishuang slaves, who had been dead, became more and more angry.


    They both looked at Zhang Xiu.


    In everyone''s eyes, there are expectations, but in fact, each one''s heart is uneasy. Because under the current circumstances, they could not believe that the emperor of the Qin Dynasty was willing to release them from slavery and give them freedom.


    It''s incredible.You know, in the land of Kushan, caste system has existed for many years. No one is willing to break it, because countless nobles enjoy boundless benefits and suck the blood of all lower races.


    Especially in the eyes of these slaves, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, who was a superior man, begged to look down upon these humble slaves, but Zhang Xiu was willing to talk to them.


    It''s all strange.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the comments around her, looked at the gradually fresh slaves, and said, "you remember clearly. I just said that if you are willing to be Qin people, you can enjoy everything of Qin people."


    "My promise will not change."


    "However, while enjoying the benefits of the Qin people, you have to fight against Daqin. That''s a capital crime."


    "I, Daqin, am willing to accept you."


    "But I won''t raise a tiger."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "when it comes to slavery, I will not only remove all of you from slavery, but also all the slaves in Kushan, and all the nobles above."


    "Since then, there has been no distinction between nobles and humble slaves in Wulei city."


    "From then on, they were all the people of the Qin Dynasty."


    "As long as you abide by the law and discipline, the laws of Daqin will protect your safety. However, if any of you violates the laws of the Qin Dynasty, you will be punished according to the laws of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu tone gradually severe, said: "I welcome people who can abide by the law. For those who do not abide by the law and trample on the law, I have only one word: kill


    "Are you willing to be Qin people?"


    Zhang Xiu asked.


    At this point, his voice rose to a higher level, almost trying to roar.


    "Yes!"


    "I''d like to be a Qin."


    In the crowd, a slave suddenly exclaimed. The voice was very hoarse, completely broken. But this voice, like a thunderbolt, suddenly dispelled all the mists among all the Kushan slaves and the 10000 odd people.


    So that all Kushan slaves wake up, no longer expressionless.


    "Yes, we do."


    "I''d like to be a relative."


    "I will!"


    One after another of the cries, constantly sounded. At the beginning, these voices were miscellaneous, not loud and clear, nor uniform. But gradually, the slaves of Kushan tried their best to roar, even though they were flushed because of their efforts, but they were very happy.


    One by one, slaves let out their inner feelings by shouting.


    One by one, they cried out with great joy.


    They are free.


    They are no longer slaves.


    They don''t need to live in a dark cell any more. They can go out in a big way and live as real people.


    The shouts echoed in the cell for a long time.


    This curtain fell in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, and he started to smile. Through these words, he finally activated the survival heart of this group of Kushan slaves, and let them survive successfully, instead of being decadent slaves.


    Guo Jia said with emotion: "Your Majesty''s words can be described as morning bell and evening drum. Your Majesty''s action is supported by countless slaves. When the first mock exam is extended to the whole city, it will destroy the frost if it is extended to the entire frost. Moreover, countless people will really support your majesty and Daqin. "


    Xun Zheng said, "the popular will is available. The most common people are the key."


    While they were shocked, they were also happy.


    Because it solved a big problem.

 Chapter 1276

    After a quarter of an hour, the noisy scene finally calmed down. All the crying slaves have recovered. Even now, they are still weak; even now, they are still poor; even now, they are still homeless, but these slaves are at ease.


    Because I see hope.


    Because I have the courage to live.


    A pair of eyes fall on Zhang Xiu again, waiting for her to speak. That pair of eager eyes, as if to melt people, Zhang Xiu can feel this pair of eyes light, contains the expectation, as well as contains the moving.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you are now homeless in Wulei City, and you have no money or food to support yourself. So on this premise, after I release you. First, the government will open warehouses to provide porridge for the people. Second, the government will provide work for relief and issue special notices for you to earn money and support your families. In short, as long as you work hard, you will not starve to death. "


    Long live your majesty


    Suddenly, the slaves of Kushan knelt down and cried out.


    For these slaves, they have no home and no wealth. If they are released directly, they will be released. But after they go back, they have no one to support themselves. It will be very difficult.


    However, the government at this time to work relief, let the people have something to do, can make money, can also have food, can ensure that they tide over difficulties, can smooth transition. At that time, one by one with cultivated land, can also work to earn money, life will be a little bit of recovery, can live a good life.


    Long live your majesty


    Many slaves knelt down and cried long live.


    Long live your majesty


    Long live your majesty


    More and more people are shouting, more and more people are cheering and excited. Even if many people are tired, but now, is also filled with hope, with a full of fighting spirit.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet.


    Wait for everyone to stop talking.


    Another pair of grateful eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. Although these people can''t believe Zhang Xiu fanatically, their gratitude to Zhang Xiu is real.


    Zhang Xiu once again said: "in view of your long-term oppression, you can''t eat well and dress well, and you are weak. I''ve decided to provide you with food today, so that you can have enough food and recover your strength. Then, I''ll let you go. In addition, I will arrange doctors to treat those of you who are ill, so as to ensure that you will not be affected by the disease. "


    WOW!!


    In the crowd, the noise broke out.


    As a king of a country, Zhang Xiu, as a superior emperor, announced to remove their slave status and return them freedom, which is already a great reward.


    Not only that, Zhang Xiu also announced that she would provide work relief, so that they could have something to do and earn money to support their families, instead of worrying about their livelihood after leaving the prison.


    It can be said that this has been done.


    But Zhang Xiu not only did this, but also carefully considered that they were always hungry and in poor health. She wanted to provide them with a full meal and cure their injuries.


    This arrangement moved all the people.


    If previously, they were grateful for Zhang Xiu''s great kindness for releasing them. So now, when these people hear Zhang Xiu''s words, they are already moved and moved by her delicacy.


    These people already trust Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people who were talking about it. She didn''t say much, so she immediately asked Xun Yu to arrange it.


    Although it''s not the time for dinner nowadays, the cooks in the army got the order and cooked in the places where the barracks were stationed in the city one after another, preparing meals for 10000 people quickly.


    In order to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of these people, Zhang Xiu took all the people out of the prison, took them to the military camp, and placed them in the school yard, so as to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of military doctors.


    Time is not long, a pot of food came.


    But most of them are pasta.


    There''s also a lot of meat.


    For these Kushan slaves who have been living as slaves in dark cells, they are drinking broth, eating delicious meals, gobbling up one by one, and their emotions are even more excited. There are many more people, eating and crying, tears like a broken line, constantly sliding from the eyes, from the cheek down.


    When everyone is satisfied and the doctor has finished the treatment, Zhang Xiu looks at the satisfied guishuang slaves. Among these people, there is no lack of people who ate too much before and even had a big stomach.


    Now one face after another is full of happiness.


    One by one, the eyes are bright.


    Because they see hope.


    Zhang xiulang said in a voice: "now you are all full of food and drink. After a little rest, you can leave and go back to your own home. If there is no place to live, they can temporarily live in the barracks. Tomorrow morning, the government will announce the recruitment outside the South Gate of Wulei city. Anyone who wants to do something can do it. Anyone who comes can earn money. Now, whatever you want. "Finish saying, Zhang Xiu no longer lingers, takes a person to turn around to leave.


    He has already finished the arrangement.


    Next, it is what Xun Yu should do, because it is his main task to pacify the local people. However, these things, for Xun Yu, were easy and not complicated.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu was going to leave, these Kushan people were even more grateful. One by one, they spontaneously stood up and then bowed to send Zhang Xiu away. In their hearts, they all felt the kindness of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took people back to the Lord''s mansion and took a seat in the hall.


    Gan Ning, with a look of excitement, said: "Congratulations, your majesty, on the release of the Kushan slave in the prison. These people are your Majesty''s loyalties. Their existence will make it easier for your majesty to accept the Kushan people. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it''s not possible to accept Kushan people overnight. Of course, generally speaking, it will be stable and good, and it will get better and better. Now that these slaves have been disposed of, the next step is to abolish the slaves and the Kushan caste system in Wulei city. Right now, it''s a priority. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes flashed a light, solemnly said: "Your Majesty, this matter must be promoted. But now, once all the promotion, I am afraid it will cause a huge rebound. After all, there are countless Kushan nobles in Wulei city. The existence of these people will be a great potential threat. They will certainly resist. So in advance, we must have sufficient preparation. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "naturally, we can''t fight unprepared battles."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Wang Yue, you mobilize the royal guards to find out the Kushan nobles in Wulei city. After finding out the situation of these people, arrange people to monitor the movement. I will only give you three days. In three days, I will issue a decree to abolish the caste system of Kushan. There will be no more slaves or nobles. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed down.


    Three days is enough time for him to finish his work. If the royal guards under his command can not be completed in three days, they can be directly removed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Guo Jia and said, "how about fengxiao


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Majesty is very thoughtful and considerate. As long as we have sufficient preparation and we have a large army, it is easy to deal with the nobles in Wulei city. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "especially after three days of fermentation, the ten thousand slaves who were released went home, and then they publicized, and the image of your Majesty was set up. The bottom people of Kushan will support your majesty. With the support of the people, we will have a foothold. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now Wulei city is a stronghold for us to enter Kushan. After taking Wulei City, we must manage Wulei city well, ensure Wulei city up and down, and be loyal to Daqin. In this way, we can be regarded as a real foothold and have the foundation to conquer Kushan. Otherwise, everything will be in vain. As soon as our army leaves, the territory of Kushan may rebel. "


    Guo Jia said: "what your majesty has said is that what we need to do now is not to attack the city quickly, but to ask him and control all places steadily."


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s exactly the reason."


    Zhang Xiu said the rest of the things, but also arranged for Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and others to continue to March, to sweep the entire area of no thunder city. After all, Wulei city is not a city. It has a vast territory, which needs to be seized.


    All set, everyone to busy.

 Chapter 1277

    Palmetty was one of ten thousand slaves. His ancestors were all pariah. His grandfather, his father and his brothers are all pariah people with low status. Once you see the nobles of Kushan country, you can only kneel on the ground and dare not show any disrespect.


    Palmetty became a slave because he knelt down a little slower when he met the nobles in Wulei City, so that he was thrown into slavery and engaged in mining every day.


    Now, Palmer has come up with it.


    Palmette was set free.


    Although palmetty''s clothes were ragged, he was also extremely thin. At a glance, he was skinny. But palmetty''s face was full of bright smile.


    Palmetty walked on the street, happy and going home. In his family, his parents are still alive, and there is an elder brother and a younger brother. The family get along very well.


    But palmette''s home is in the west of no thunder city.


    And it''s the most marginal area.


    This is a slum.


    Countless poor people in Wulei city live here. Their houses are made of mud or thatch. They are the most humble and have no objects at home. These people are mainly engaged in farming, fishing, hunting and so on. They are the people at the bottom. They live a very hard life and have no status. They may even be killed at any time.


    Because in front of the nobility, the lives of these people can''t even compare with a dog in the nobility''s family.


    Palmetty walked briskly back to the house.


    The house is made of rammed earth and has a row of four rooms. Outside the house, there is a ring of wood inserted in the ground to form a wall, delimiting the area of the home.


    Palmetty opened the door of his house and pushed in.


    In the yard, palmetty''s father was chopping wood.


    As soon as he saw palmetty coming back, he was stunned, with a look of endless joy on his face. Because once thrown into slavery, it''s impossible to come back, and finally it''s a corpse.


    Now palmetty is back alive.


    Palmetty''s father was happy at first, and immediately, with a look of fear on his face, he quickly closed the door. Then he pulled palmetty forward two steps and said in a deep voice, "son, are you back from prison?"


    Palmette said, "no, my son came back aboveboard."


    Palmetty''s father, however, did not believe it and said, "how can you come back when you enter the world and are treated as slaves?"


    Palmette said, "father, it''s true. The reason why I was able to come back was not because I escaped, but because his Majesty the emperor of Qin led his army to Wulei city. He has released all of us from slavery and given us freedom. Now I''m free and I don''t need to be a slave anymore. "


    "Seriously?"


    Palmetty''s father was very happy, and his face was full of joy.


    "It''s true, of course," palmetty said. "If you ask about it, you''ll know. As many as 10000 slaves were released. What''s more, his majesty also said that we should abolish slaves and nobles. "


    After a pause, palmette said: "since then, there will be no more aristocracy and common people in Wulei City, and there will be no aristocracy inherited from generation to generation. Father, these damned aristocrats, their good days are over. Your majesty, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, will destroy them completely. Our good day is coming. "


    Palmette''s father, however, shook his head and said, "well, no matter what, nobility is still nobility. It''s not easy for us to live


    "You can rest assured that the government will recruit workers outside the city tomorrow morning," palmett said. Anyone who is willing to go can go and earn money by working. So we have a chance to make money. "


    "Really?"


    Palmetty''s father got excited.


    Palmetty said: "I cheat you to do something, this thing, of course, is true."


    "Good, good, good!"


    Palmette''s father nodded busily, with a bright look on his face. He was very happy. Because for them, the chance to make money is pie falling from the sky. No matter how hard the work is, they can make money, that''s the best.


    The two father and son discussed the work. They were very happy and looked forward to it.


    As a matter of fact, such a situation as that of the pameti family was constantly unfolding in the city of no thunder, so that the news of the emancipation of slaves was thoroughly spread, and many people were jubilant when they learned about the recruitment.


    This is their chance.


    Of course, the transmission of the news also reached the ears of the nobility of Wulei city.


    The nobility of Wulei city mainly lived in the north of the city. In this area, they all lived in the nobility. The nobles, big and small, lived here, and they all had no worries about food and clothing.


    The largest family in Wulei city is the Brahman family, which is the best caste.


    The patriarch of the Brahman family is called jasanyi.It''s called Lord jasanyi.


    In Wulei City, even if Jimu is the Lord of the city, when he meets jasanyi, he has to be respectful, because jasanyi''s surname is the highest caste.


    Now, jasanyi is more than 70 years old, and his body is not very good. When he was young, he served as an official in Peshawar, the capital of Kushan. Later, when he was old, he resigned and returned to his hometown of Wulei.


    At home, in the backyard study.


    Under his jaw, jasanyi''s curly beard was white, and his sparse hair was carefully combed.


    A face, full of wrinkles.


    Show the wind and frost.


    That pair of deep eyes, but through to see through the world of sophistication and cunning.


    Jasanyi is now reading a book.


    The book he studied is the art of war, which he bought by chance from a businessman in the western regions. When I saw it, I was shocked. However, Sun Tzu''s art of war is exclusively translated by merchants in the western regions, and many of its essence has never been translated, but Rao is so, and jasanyi is also a treasure.


    He has read books for countless times, but every time he reads, he always feels a new harvest.


    I''m not tired of seeing it.


    Just as jasanyi was reading, there was a knock on the door outside the study.


    Then, an old man about the same age as jasanyi entered. This is jasanyi''s old housekeeper. When I was young, I always followed jasanyi. Now I am old, I still follow jasanyi.


    The housekeeper said: "master, there are a group of people from outside the house. They are all the nobles of Wulei city. One by one, they were worried. They said that the new emperor of Qin wanted to abolish the nobles and make the nobles in Wulei city the same as those Dalits. These people are here to make up their minds with you. "


    Jasanyi raised his eyelids and said, "please go to the hall."


    "Yes


    The housekeeper nodded and answered, and immediately went to inform him.


    But jasanyi didn''t put down his "art of war" and continued to browse. After a while, jasanyi put down his books, dressed in black again, and went to the hall.


    When jasanyi entered, everyone arrived.


    These people are the nobles of Wulei city.


    One by one, today''s face, into the worry, and from the depths of the eyes, there is anger. They are angry that Zhang Xiu wants to abolish the aristocracy, and even more angry at Zhang Xiu''s boldness.


    Jasanyi went to the throne, lifted up his robes, sat down, looked around all the people, and said, "with so many of you here, almost all the nobles of my thunder free city are here. Tell me what''s going on. "


    "Lord jasanyi, it''s the emperor of the Qin Dynasty who wants to make a fool of himself." In the crowd, a middle-aged man sitting first on the right spoke. His name is Afanti. He is a nobleman of Wulei city and also a Brahman caste. However, his family is not as prominent as jasanyi, but in Wulei City, Afanti''s power is not small.


    Even Avanti himself held an official position in Wulei city. But now Ji Mu has fled. Avanti can''t leave because his family is in Wulei City, so he stays.

 Chapter 1278

    Afanti continued: "the first thing the emperor of the Qin Dynasty did after seizing Wulei city was to release more than 10000 slaves in his cell. Moreover, Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, declared that he wanted to abolish the slaves and all the nobles. "


    "Isn''t this nonsense, or what?"


    "Whether it''s Kushan, or a hundred years ahead, the foundation we are based on is caste system, which means that everything in the world is orderly."


    "Each class performs its own duties."


    "Now when Zhang Xiu comes, he will break our rules. Once Zhang Xiu abolishes the slaves and nobles of Wulei City, where are we going


    Afanti said in a deep voice: "master jasanyi, you are a wise man and the most shrewd man. You must help us with this matter and come up with a solution. Otherwise, we''re done. "


    All the people agreed.


    Every face has a worried look, for fear that it will become a reality.


    If we do things according to the rules of the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, there will be no nobles and slaves in Wulei city. These nobles will have no source of income and no basis for their survival. This is what everyone does not want to see. So they are looking at jasanyi, hoping that jasanyi can get along with each other and find a solution.


    Jasanyi stroked his beard under his jaw, quickly turned his brain and thought about the solution.


    The first thing he thought of was the art of war.


    According to the art of war, the enemy is too strong now. To fight head-on is like hitting a stone with an egg. The best way is to show the enemy that he is weak and then give him a fatal blow.


    Jasanyi thought of the plan, immediately had a direction, said: "you, I really think of a solution. Moreover, such a solution is the most fundamental and tyrannical. "


    Afantilian said: "how to say?"


    "The fundamental reason is that if we want to solve this problem, we must solve it from the source," said jasanyi. There is a saying in the great Qin Dynasty of China that it is necessary to tie the bell before it can be solved. "


    "We must aim at Zhang Xiu to solve the problem from the root."


    "The reason why we say it is the most cruel is that if we want to solve our problems once and for all, we can only get rid of Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, as long as Zhang Xiu is here, everything will be suppressed."


    "When Zhang Xiu is dead, the Qin Dynasty will be in chaos."


    "The army of the Qin Dynasty will certainly retreat at that time."


    Jasanyi said: "so now, what we have to do is to deal with Zhang Xiu. Even if you want to find the right opportunity to kill Zhang Xiu directly, you will never suffer from it. "


    Avanti said: "well, when is the right time? As for the means and plans to deal with Zhang Xiu, what is it? Z that''s the point. If we don''t have a detailed plan, we have to deal with Zhang Xiu, that is to find a way out. "


    With a smile on his lips, jasanyi said, "Avanti, what are you in a hurry?"


    Afanti looked worried and said: "it''s related to the rights and interests of all our nobles. How can we not summon them. Today''s matter, already related to our life and death. If we can''t deal with this time properly. Then, we nobility of Wulei city will decline completely because of this, which can''t be ignored. "


    "What you said is true," said jasanyi. So now, we must get rid of Zhang Xiu once and for all. Can you agree to my proposal? "


    Afanti said in a deep voice: "I agree. Now Zhang Xiu has put the knife on our necks. If we don''t kill Zhang Xiu now, then the nobles of Wulei city will sink completely. It''s better to fight for it than that. "


    "Yes, we did."


    Some of the rest of the nobility agreed.


    "Kill Zhang Xiu, it''s over."


    "Anyway, Zhang Xiu doesn''t give us a way to live. It''s better to fight than to be suppressed by Zhang Xiu."


    "Let Zhang Xiu see our strength."


    One by one, the nobles in Wulei city had a ferocious look on their faces. One by one, they wanted to kill Zhang Xiu. Only in this way can they solve their difficulties.


    Because Zhang Xiu is the root.


    As long as Zhang Xiu was there, the boundary between nobles and slaves would be broken. Such a situation is unacceptable to the nobles of Wulei City, so they can''t reconcile with Zhang Xiu. It can only be the first World War.


    Jasanyi listened to the public''s comments, and his old cheek was full of smiles. Because of the words of the nobility in Wulei City, jasanyi was very satisfied. Now everyone supports the plan.


    Otherwise, everything will be in vain.


    Seeing the excitement, Afanti raised his hand and motioned everyone to be quiet. Then he looked at jasanyi again and said, "master jasanyi, the most important thing is still the plan to deal with Zhang Xiu. You said to deal with Zhang Xiu, but the problem is, how to deal with Zhang Xiu? Plan, what we need now is a plan. "


    "What''s the hurry? Don''t worry. We have to deal with Zhang Xiu, and we are not in a hurry for this moment. "


    But they were very worried.When it comes to life and death, no one dares to be careless, but jasanyi looks like an old God. In such a situation, they can''t help but worry. It''s really frustrating.


    See people anxious, jasanyi just no longer sell the key, said: "we have to deal with Zhang Xiu, score for three steps."


    "The first step is to submit to Zhang Xiu and win her trust."


    "If you want to take it first, you must give it first. Before we deal with Zhang Xiu, we have to meet her requirements. Now, isn''t he going to abolish caste, slaves and nobles? We nobility of Wulei City, all unite together, and then go to the city Lord''s house to meet Zhang Xiu, to show active obedience, and willing to listen to the arrangement. "


    "It''s about getting close to him and making him believe us."


    Jasanyi continued: "the second step is to further reduce Zhang Xiu''s vigilance."


    "In this step, we will release some of our slaves, and then donate food and weapons to help Zhang Xiu stabilize the situation of Wulei City, so that Zhang Xiu can completely let go of her guard."


    "We''ll surrender first, then help him."


    "Two consecutive steps, enough to make Zhang Xiu believe us."


    A fierce look flashed in jasanyi''s eyes and said, "then the last step is to invite the emperor into the urn. Invite Zhang Xiu to our house for dinner, and then arrange to kill Zhang Xiu on the spot. As long as Zhang Xiu was killed, the Qin army would be in chaos. We took advantage of the situation to take back Wulei city. In the end, this mine free city is still our mine free city. "


    "What do you think, gentlemen?"


    Jasanyi had a proud look on his face, because he was very proud of the plan.


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Avanti took the lead.


    The more he pondered, the more feasible he felt.


    The plan is perfect.


    The rest of the nobles in Wulei City, after thinking in their hearts, agreed with him and agreed with his plan. They believe that it will be 100% successful to act according to jasanyi''s plan.


    So all the people were worried and rejoicing, and their faces were full of expectation.

 Chapter 1279

    After all the negotiations, the faces of the people relaxed. After all, there is jasanyi''s plan. They all agree that this time, the plan will be a great success, and then peace will return to Wulei city.


    One by one, they began to praise jasanyi.


    Everyone started cheering.


    At this time, Afanti leaned forward slightly, looking forward, and said, "everyone, be quiet."


    Everyone was silent.


    One by one, they stopped talking and their eyes fell on Avanti.


    Jasanyi also looked at Afanti. Although he seldom went out, he knew the situation of Wulei city like the back of his hand. This Afanti is not old, and is good at dancing. He is a character.


    Afanti turned to look at jasanyi and said, "master jasanyi is famous for three things in Wulei city. First, it is the wisdom of master jasanyi. His strategy is far-reaching and his wisdom is outstanding. It is not too far sighted to describe it. Therefore, master jasanyi is the God of the sea for the nobility of Wulei city. "


    Everyone nodded.


    It''s another puff.


    All praise jasanyi, after all, just now jasanyi conspired to solve the plan to deal with Zhang Xiu.


    Jasanyi was very proud at the bottom of his heart, but his face was also indifferent, and said: "Afanti, you''re wrong. I''ve just seen more things, and I''ve grown older. When you get to my age, you will be equally resourceful. "


    Afanti shook his head and said, "master jasanyi, you are too modest."


    After a pause, Afanti said: "the second thing that master jasanyi is fond of talking about is that he likes to help others. We nobility in Wulei City, if anyone is in trouble, master jasanyi, who has never fallen into trouble, is a timely help. "


    "It is estimated that there are no less than 30 nobles in Wulei city who have been benefitted by Lord jasanyi. A considerable number of these 30 odd people have survived the most difficult period and finally achieved good results. "


    "This is the grace of Lord jasanyi."


    "For others, once they see each other in trouble, I''m afraid they can''t wait to rush up like a vicious dog, intending to tear up some interests, but master jasanyi has never done it."


    Afanti sighed: "we nobles in Wulei city have master jasanyi. That''s a great blessing. It is said that there is an old man in a family, such as a treasure. The nobles of Wulei City, with master jasanyi, have the treasure of the town


    "Ha ha ha, it''s wrong, it''s wrong!"


    Jasanyi couldn''t help laughing. His wrinkled face stretched out like a flower. Afanti''s words, when it comes to jasanyi''s heart, make jasanyi happy.


    Of course, this is also true.


    Jasanyi tried his best to help the nobles in Wulei city. If he can help, he will try his best to help. In short, jasanyi''s reputation in Wulei city is excellent.


    This also benefited from the way of being an official in his youth, making more friends and less enemies. In this way, jasanyi''s family will become more and more prosperous, and it will not be more and more difficult.


    In this way, jasanyi became the head of nobility in Wulei city.


    The rest of them agreed.


    Because many of you, Zeng Ning, got some help from jasanyi more or less when he was in trouble.


    Afanti said again: "the third thing that master jasanyi likes to talk about is that the servant girls in his family are very outstanding. As we all know, master jasanyi is good at training people. In particular, some of the maids and maids in his family are graceful and beautiful. They are also very good at serving people. "


    "A night of greedy joy, intoxicated in which can not extricate themselves."


    "It''s the envy of everyone."


    "Now we have made a plan to deal with Zhang Xiu, and then we just need to push forward according to the plan. But now, everyone has leisure, and it''s hard to get together in master jasanyi''s house one by one. I don''t know if master jasanyi can bring out the women in your family and arrange for them to serve everyone here one by one. "


    Afanti looked greedy and expected: "I once came to master jasanyi''s house and enjoyed it once. It''s really memorable and unforgettable."


    When they heard this, they looked forward to it.


    That eye son, more emerge out of the deep desire, the bottom of my heart as if there is something gnawing like, incomparable itch.


    Jasanyi chuckled.


    Afanti, this boy, beat around the Bush praise, is for this one.


    Jasanyi''s family did have special personnel to train women, not only for their manners, but also for their skills under the bed.


    Today''s jasanyi, is very happy, so in the face of Afanti''s request, he did not refuse, said: "speaking of this carnival ah, a person alone carnival, since there is no interest."


    "It''s best to be together."


    "I like reading. In the distant Eastern state of Qin, a sage named Confucius once said that music alone is not as good as music for all. If it''s good, we''ll have to revel together. ""That''s the fun."


    Jasanyi continued: "I''ll call the women at once and serve you one by one. This time, you can indulge yourself and do whatever you want. I promise to serve you well. "


    Immediately, jasanyi arranged to be informed.


    After a while, all the dignified and graceful Kushan women came in and sat down next to the nobility of Wulei city one by one.


    All these women are slaves.


    He was a slave of jasanyi''s family. After being trained, he became a servant.


    There''s no freedom.


    They are just tools for people to play with, and even these women who have been trained have been destroyed by extremely cruel means. No matter how these women serve others, they will not get pregnant.


    One by one, they don''t have many coats, and they are all tight clothes, so the lines of their whole body are very tight, and people can see that they are already on fire at the bottom of their hearts.


    Jasanyi talked with Chongren with a smile and said a few words. Not long ago, some nobles began to explore the secrets of the women. Even there was a tearing sound. One by one, the nobles turned into beasts and took off their clothes directly in the hall. They were already in the hall, sprinting in front of everyone.


    Low roars came from the hall.


    Originally elegant hall, but now it has become extremely popular, but jasanyi in the eyes, but it is with a smile. Because the scene in front of us is the normal state of nobility, and many people are even more proud of it.


    This is the life of the nobility.


    The chaos in the hall lasted for half an hour, and finally came to an end.


    All the nobles felt comfortable and accepted the servant girl''s service. The ship''s coat was on fire, and they returned to the appearance of beasts. All the women, though pitiful, even though they had a sad look in their eyes, were forced to smile.


    Jasanyi also arranged for people to serve food and wine, and let the singer dance.


    Start to enjoy the next round of song and dance.


    The whole house of jasanyi is a scene of luxury and confusion.

 Chapter 1280

    The city without thunder in the morning is quiet.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t sleep late. He still got up early for morning exercises. Zhang Xiu has never lost the habit she has formed over the years. She always insists on practicing in winter and summer.


    Just like this, Zhang Xiu is in excellent health.


    Zhang Xiu morning exercise, eat early after dinner, will continue to check some of the city government custody. Through these government affairs, Zhang Xiu has a deeper understanding of Wulei city.


    The tax of Wulei city is the most unreasonable, but the nobles have to pay taxes and even enjoy many safeguard measures. Even if the nobles do nothing, they can''t starve to death.


    The terms for ordinary people and slaves are extremely harsh.


    As a result, people''s life is very difficult.


    These things need to be dealt with.


    These are also the reasons why Zhang Xiu abolished slaves and nobles. If we do not abolish the nobility of Wulei City, Zhang Xiu will have no foundation in Wulei city. Only by abolishing the nobility and liberating the people of Wulei City, can all the people really stand on Zhang Xiu''s side and become his loyal supporters.


    This is also called interest binding.


    All the people in Wulei city and the vast majority of them are tied to Zhang Xiu''s side with the real interests. In this way, even if there are nobles to make trouble, Zhang Xiu''s governance is stable.


    When Zhang Xiu deals with government affairs in her study, Wang Yue rushes in.


    Wang Yue bowed and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "what''s the matter?"


    Wang Yue said: "report back to your majesty, I arranged to stare at the sentry of the nobles in Wulei city yesterday, and sent back the news that all the nobles in Wulei city gathered in the house of the nobles in Wulei city."


    Zhang Xiu said, "who is jasanyi?"


    Wang Yue replied: "this jasanyi was born in Brahman caste and once held an important position in Peshawar, the capital of Kushan state. But after the Spring Festival, jasanyi went back to his hometown of Wulei City, where he cultivated his body and mind. "


    "I once arranged for people to inquire about jasanyi. This is a very cunning old fox, especially others who like some military books of Daqin and study the books of the sages of Daqin."


    "It is said that Sun Tzu''s art of war is his favorite."


    "In addition, jasanyi has a high prestige among the nobles in Wulei city. Many nobles in Wulei City, who live much more, have received the favor of jasanyi. "


    Wang Yue continued with a solemn expression: "as for all the people gathered in jasanyi''s house, because jasanyi''s house is very strict, it''s difficult for our people to sneak in. We don''t know the specific situation for the moment. The only thing we can know is that the reason why these people gather in jasanyi''s residence is that his majesty wants to abolish the nobility, which will affect the interests of the nobility in Wulei city. That''s why they gathered in the house of jasanyi. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she saw a light in her eyes.


    Since it is to abolish the aristocracy, it is nothing more than a plan to deal with it. It is even a plan to solve Zhang Xiu once and for all.


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, these nobles in Wulei city are cancer. According to the minister''s suggestion, we should directly mobilize our forces to get rid of the nobles in the city without thunder. "


    "Not right!"


    But Zhang Xiu shook her head.


    When he occupied Wulei City, if he directly dispatched troops to push all the nobles, it would cause great pressure to capture the city of Kushan in the future. It is untenable to destroy these nobles without any reason.


    Zhang Xiu said: "only now, because they want to abolish the aristocracy, they are very likely to deal with me. We need to pay attention to this. The royal guards arranged by you are going all out to investigate the information. You must find out the information clearly. Even if it''s time to spend money, don''t be stingy, let alone procrastinate. "


    Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, don''t worry. I understand."


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said: "you go down. I will be careful about the affairs of nobility in Wulei city."


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned around and stepped down.


    Shortly after Wang Yue left, some soldiers entered and reported: "Your Majesty, the nobleman of Wulei City, jasanyi, took the rest of the noblemen to the city Lord''s residence and asked to see your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose.


    That''s fast.


    Just now, Wang Yuecai reported to the nobility of Wulei city what they discussed yesterday. In the twinkling of an eye, Jia sangyi brought people to the mansion to meet him, which made people doubt his intention.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t refuse. She said, "take the people to the hall, and I''ll be there soon."


    "Here it is


    The soldier was ordered to turn and retreat.


    But Zhang Xiu is still looking at the government affairs, and there is no trend to go to the hall at all. For Zhang Xiu, he just wants to air the nobles in the city without thunder. It''s better to make them all angry.


    Only in this way can Zhang Xiu make a judgment.


    A quarter of an hour passes quietly.When two quarters of an hour passed, a soldier reported that the nobles of Wulei City urged Zhang Xiu to ask when she would go. But Zhang Xiu still didn''t go. She just asked the soldiers to report that there was something important to deal with for the time being. She wanted the nobles of Wulei city to wait a little.


    Zhang Xiu is not arrogant.


    The problem is that the nobles in Wulei City, such as Avanti, not only have an eager look on their faces, but they are even more angry. They are the nobles of Wulei City, one by one high above the other, and they are usually treated with dignity. No one dared to stand in front of them on their way out of the mansion, and even the untouchables of Wulei city had to kneel down.


    Zhang Xiu is different here.


    The strong gap makes these nobles in Wulei city hard to accept and adapt to.


    Afanti clenched his teeth, clenched his fist and said, "master jasanyi, the emperor of Qin, is too much. We took the initiative to meet, but he avoided them and deliberately hung them out. Even if we see Ji Mu, the leader of Wulei City, he is also respectful to us. But when Zhang Xiu first arrived, she was so self righteous. "


    The rest echoed.


    One by one, with an angry look on his face, he kept talking about Zhang Xiu''s arrogance.


    They all resent Zhang Xiu''s hegemony.


    Jasanyi listened to all the people''s chatter, then suddenly laughed and said: "you guys, we''re here to surrender to Zhang Xiu. If we can''t even be patient, how can we make Zhang Xiu believe in our sincerity? "


    "Once Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept us, the plan can''t be carried forward. So even if you feel uncomfortable in your heart, please bear with your mind, don''t be angry for the time being, and stabilize your mood in order to deal with Zhang Xiu''s means. "


    "What''s more, according to my opinion, Zhang Xiu is really hanging them on purpose. His purpose is to provoke us and make us lose our sense. "


    "In this way, Zhang Xiu can easily deal with us. Ladies and gentlemen, Zhang Xiu is not an ordinary man. He is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Even the great emperor of Wei Su Ti Po was defeated by Zhang Xiu. "


    Jia sangyi reminded: "Zhang Xiu is a king of a country, it''s not simple. In front of Zhang Xiu, we can''t show any flaws. Otherwise, all previous efforts will be wasted. "


    After hearing this, Afanti said, "I understand what master jasanyi said."


    Others, too, spoke.


    All agree with jasanyi''s analysis.


    But after all, they are the nobles of Wulei city. They are always angry when they are being aired.


    As soon as jasanyi shook his robes, he said, "ladies and gentlemen, it''s just patience. Zhang Xiu is waiting for us not to meet, so we are waiting here. When we wait for Zhang Xiu, we won''t lose anything. "


    "Your Majesty is here!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came.


    But it''s Zhang Xiu.


    The clothes on Zhang Xiu''s body are very simple, not luxurious or complicated, just a simple white robe. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "you have been waiting for a long time. Oh, I''m sorry to keep you waiting. It''s just that today''s Wulei city is full of waste and there are too many things to do, so it''s delayed for some time. "


    A group of nobles in Wulei City, though they agree with each other, are angry in their hearts.


    They don''t believe that Zhang Xiu has many things to do.


    Zhang Xiu did this on purpose.


    Zhang Xiu went to the throne, sat down, looked around, and said: "it''s rare that the nobles of Wulei city came together. But you are all busy people. You can''t do anything without going to the three treasures hall. What can I do for you when you come to the Lord''s mansion? "


    Jasanyi answered and said, "Your Majesty, the reason why we are here together. The reason is that after his majesty seizes Wulei City, we are willing to submit to his majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "are you serious?"


    "Nature is true," said jasanyi


    Zhang Xiu, with a smile on her face, said: "very good, very good. You are loyal to Daqin. I am also quite pleased with what you have done. "

 Chapter 1281

    For the nobility of Wulei City headed by jasanyi, Zhang Xiu said that she was willing to surrender, but she would not believe it. The reason is very simple. These nobles in Wulei city can''t really give up their power. Because originally can lie down to enjoy the luxury life, but now have to pay hard work to earn money, no one will be willing to.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t want to believe the so-called surrender.


    But Zhang Xiu face, but did not show, then light mouth praise. In addition, Zhang Xiu did not reveal anything, because the nobility of Wulei city did not express anything.


    Zhang Xiu has a set not a set, and jasanyi and others talk, but are irrelevant words.


    Jia sangyi sees this, in the heart secret way Zhang Xiu is old and spicy. They said they were submissive, but Zhang Xiu never said anything except praise. It''s like water and fire do not invade, oil and salt do not enter.


    Jasanyi threw a color at Avanti.


    Seeing this, Afanti immediately stood up and bowed: "Your Majesty, the nobles of Wulei City, since they have obeyed your majesty, they should serve for your majesty."


    "First, we offered 200000 grains for the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. Although for Daqin, 200000 stone grain is a small amount, it is also our intention. "


    "Second, we present the whole picture of Kushan. This map is the most detailed complete map of Kushan today. It is the only one in the whole Wulei city. Only we nobility of Wulei city have it. "


    "Third, we nobility of Wulei city are willing to release the 10000 slaves we have."


    Afanti looked complacent and said, "this is the sincerity of my nobility in Wulei city."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, thinking in her heart.


    He could not believe that the nobles of Wulei city would really hand over their rights. The reason for doing so is to have a plan. Zhang Xiu didn''t show anything. She said again, "I''ll accept the noble''s wishes in Wulei city."


    After a word, Zhang Xiu praised the nobility of Wulei city. In short, she said something good. After a word of praise, Zhang Xiu still didn''t make a statement. He couldn''t give up the abolition of caste system because the nobility of Wulei City donated food and so on.


    This is unshakable.


    Jasanyi has been observing Zhang Xiu, he saw Zhang Xiu so hard and soft do not eat, do not state their position, heart sigh. If Zhang Xiu accepts the advantages and gives up abolishing the caste system, then jasanyi doesn''t mind maintaining a peaceful situation with Zhang Xiu.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t make a statement, jasanyi can only do it.


    Jasanyi wants to maintain the caste system.


    Jasanyi answered. His voice was a little hoarse, and he said slowly: "Your Majesty, two days later, it will be a grand event of Brahman race in Wulei city. At that time, we will celebrate in my husband''s home. Now that his majesty is in Wulei City, I would like to ask his majesty to come and participate in the grand event of our Brahman race. "


    "No problem!"


    Zhang Xiu did not hesitate.


    He laughed in his heart.


    The nobles of Wulei City, headed by jasanyi, finally showed their fox tail.


    Jasanyi first said that he would be obedient, and then Afanti proposed the benefits of donation. In fact, it was all to reduce Zhang Xiu''s vigilance, so that Zhang Xiu could accept the invitation.


    The final battlefield is in the house of jasanyi.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    After hearing this, Jia sangyi showed a bright smile on his face. As long as Zhang Xiu is willing to go to the banquet, they can kill Zhang Xiu at the banquet. Qin Xiu''s army is not enough.


    There was a sly look in Zhang Xiu''s eyes. As soon as the words changed, she said, "just now, you said the donation of food and maps. When will this matter be handled?"


    Avanti said, "two days later, when the Brahman feast is over."


    Zhang Xiu is more determined in her heart.


    The so-called food donation and map donation are all for fun, because it will only be carried out after two days, but in fact, two days later, at jasanyi''s house, these people will have to fight him.


    In the end, the promise may not be carried out.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t have much expectation for food, but the map of Kushan is in great need. Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "it''s better to bump into the sun than choose a day. In my opinion, it''s better to arrange earlier. You go back today and get ready. Tomorrow morning, we will hand over food and maps. As for the release of slaves, we can wait a little longer. "


    Afanti''s eyebrows rise and his eyes are dignified.


    This is beyond expectation.


    He didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu''s face was so thick that she was sent in advance.


    The rest of the nobles in Wulei city were also a little confused. They didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was not implicit at all and asked to fulfill her promise directly, which was a surprise to them.


    A pair of eyes, fall on jasanyi''s body, all hope to ask jasanyi to refuse.


    No one is willing to donate food.


    Not willing to release slaves.


    This is the root of their aristocracy.


    Knowing what they were thinking, jasanyi said with a smile, "Your Majesty, it''s not a small amount to donate 200000 stone grains. And this amount of grain is not provided by one family. It needs to be transferred from each family and then gather 200000 stone grains. ""So, it takes time."


    "In my opinion, I''d better wait a little longer. After two days, we can arrange the food handover. In this way, it will not be too hasty. "


    "What does your majesty think?" said jasanyi


    "No!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "this is not good."


    Jasanyi''s face changed a little. The embroidery was really difficult. He didn''t let go of it, so he didn''t have a chance.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "200000 stone grain is really not a small amount. But since you have discussed to give Daqin 200000 stone grain, there must be a plan. Otherwise, who is willing to give more? I believe that you have already negotiated. It''s just the trouble of thinking about it. I''ll put it off for a while and arrange it after two days. "


    "But it''s not hard either."


    "According to the rules you set, gather up all the grain and send it to the barracks of Daqin tomorrow and give it to my army. After all, the soldiers in the army are short of food. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. Thank you. Because of your help, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are not worried about starvation. "


    Jasanyi, Avanti and others looked at each other.


    Looking at each other one by one, they all showed strange looks, because no one thought that Zhang Xiu was so cheeky.


    It''s all said that the grain will be delivered in two days.


    But Zhang Xiu insisted on it.


    In particular, this matter was promised by the nobles of Wulei City headed by jasanyi. Now that we have said that we should give food, it is impossible to say that we will not give it now, otherwise we will not be able to say so.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the nobles in Wulei City, and saw these hesitant people with a sneer in her heart. A bunch of damned moths, want to deal with him empty handed, how is that possible?


    Zhang Xiu''s face, still full of smile, continued: "in fact, early to give, late to also give, this is the same. However, if the officers and men in our army can eat the food you sent earlier, they can eat more so as not to be hungry. So I''ll have to trouble you. "

 Chapter 1282

    Jasanyi sighed in his heart. He knew he couldn''t refuse it.


    Because Zhang Xiu is too difficult.


    Zhang Xiu insists on bringing food tomorrow, but Jia sangyi can''t find a way to refuse. Just now, he had said that he could not mobilize all the grain for the time being, but Zhang Xiu directly denied it.


    Ignoring the crowd, jasanyi said, "Your Majesty, we really want to temporarily allocate food. It takes a lot of time to allocate food. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s OK. There''s still a certain time to hand over the grain tomorrow. When you get back to your home, you can communicate with jasanyi. Jasanyi and Avanti are responsible for this. I believe you will send it tomorrow. "


    There was silence.


    One by one, there was a helpless look on the cheek, which was choked by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold at the moment. He said in a deep voice: "you have been shirking for various reasons and are not willing to fulfill the conditions mentioned before. Are you deceiving me to say that you are here for fun? "


    "No, no!"


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s face had changed, Jia sang Yi quickly replied, "Your Majesty, please calm down. We have no intention of this."


    Zhang xiudao said, "then why refuse?"


    Jasanyi opened his mouth to explain, but when the words came to his mouth, he saw that Zhang Xiu narrowed her eyes. There was already a cold light in her eyes, which seemed to imply endless anger.


    At this moment, jasanyi''s heart thumped.


    If she refuses again, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will be angry.


    If you refuse again, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu will be suspicious.


    Jasanyi took a deep breath, a wrinkled old face, full of smiles, said: "Your Majesty, we really have difficulties. However, since the emperor said that, then, even if the nobles of Wulei city are in trouble, they are willing to donate the grain. In addition, the whole picture of Kushan will be given to the emperor tomorrow. "


    "Good, good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu said three good words in a row, her face was full of praise, and said: "jasanyi is still sensible, worthy of being a senior official in Peshawar city. It''s a blessing to have people like you in Wulei city. "


    Jasanyi said, "Your Majesty praised me falsely."


    After a pause, jasanyi said: "time is pressing, we will not delay, immediately go back to prepare food."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m waiting for your good news."


    "Goodbye!"


    Jasanyi stood up, bowed to Zhang Xiu, then turned and walked out.


    Afanti and the rest of the nobility in Wulei city also got up to salute Zhang Xiu. After that, they all began to walk out with a slightly unhappy look on their faces.


    Zhang Xiu looks at this group of people who leave, with a sneer in her heart.


    Next, there are good plays.


    After Jia sangyi took people out of the city Lord''s mansion, standing outside the city Lord''s mansion, Afanti took the lead in saying: "master Jia sangyi, now he has promised Zhang Xiu to give him 200000 stone grain. What can I do?"


    Jasanyi said: "what else can we do? Since it''s a promised thing, naturally we have to fulfill our promise. When we go back, we will discuss how much food each family will produce. Tomorrow morning, send it to Zhang Xiu. "


    "Mr. jasanyi, you are also true. What do you promise Zhang Xiu to do?"


    In the crowd, some people began to complain.


    "Yes, why try to be brave?"


    "Your promise will get us in. Now, food must be given. Otherwise, once Zhang Xiu turns over, things will not be good, and even affect the plan. "


    "Yes, it''s not done well."


    Every word you say to me, every word you say to me, all of them blame jasanyi.


    None of them are on jasanyi''s side.


    Jason''s face darkened. He had a chill in his body. He said coldly, "you didn''t see the situation at that time. Under the pressure of Zhang Xiu, who dares to refuse? Previously promised to give food, now Zhang Xiu aggressive, let tomorrow to give food, which of you dare to refuse. Can''t you see that Zhang Xiu is going to be angry? "


    As soon as the words came out, everyone was silent.


    No more accusations.


    Jasanyi''s big sleeve brushed and continued: "what''s more, if she continues to shirk, Zhang Xiu is suspicious. At that time, it is even more impossible to ambush Zhang Xiu in your house. Can''t you take this into consideration? A group of people''s brains are eaten by dogs, but they still go out without brains. "


    At this moment, jasanyi''s anger surged up. Facing Zhang Xiu''s aggressive, he couldn''t say anything. But in front of a group of people, he won''t swallow his anger, and he directly took it back.


    In particular, jasanyi is the most powerful man.


    Jasanyi drink abuse, people also have to bear, dare not argue with jasanyi. After all, there is a certain truth in jasanyi''s words. In Zhang Xiu aggressive, strong demand to send food tomorrow, who can refuse?


    No one dares to refuse.


    Afanti smile, he said: "master jasanyi, people are also worried, so they can''t say anything. You don''t care about the villains, don''t appreciate them. It''s not worth being angry. "Jasanyi snorted and scolded: "a group of brainless people, our plan is to deal with Zhang Xiu. Even tomorrow, food is given. But after Zhang Xiu was killed, all the grain could be taken back. "


    "What''s more, Zhang Xiu occupied the granary of Wulei city. Inside, there are countless grains. In the Treasury of Wulei City, there are countless money. As long as we kill Zhang Xiu and expel Daqin''s army, we will get more. "


    "It''s not only gold and silver, but also power."


    Jasanyi said: "so the 200000 stone grains are all available. If anyone wants to retreat, want to pick up a bargain, and is not willing to give food, I will be the first to refuse. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    All of them answered.


    In the face of the angry jasanyi, there was some fear on each face.


    After all, jasanyi''s status is extraordinary.


    Afanti was more insightful among the people. He thought about it and said, "master jasanyi, I was in the hall of the city hall before. We put forward an invitation. You said, "is Zhang Xiu aware of something?"


    "No way!"


    Jasanyi shook his head and answered.


    He has a determined look.


    Jasanyi has his own self-confidence and judgment about the plan. After all, they didn''t show any flaws in the whole process. As for the grain evasion, it is also justified.


    Avanti breathed a sigh of relief and said, "since master jasanyi thinks there is no problem. Then, it''s OK. Let''s go. Next, we''ll go to master jasanyi''s house, set down the grain shared by each family, and then gather the grain. Tomorrow morning, I will arrange someone to give it to Zhang Xiu. "


    They agreed, and each of them boarded his carriage and went to the house of jasanyi.

 Chapter 1283

    City Lord''s mansion, in the study.


    Zhang Xiu is thinking about the food donation of the nobles in Wulei city. According to the arrangement of Jia sangyi and others, she must be talking about it. After two days, he goes to the banquet. After dealing with him, he doesn''t have to fulfill his promise. At Zhang Xiu''s strong request, Jia sangyi and others finally agreed to donate 200000 stone grains tomorrow morning.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu, there is no lack of grain in the granary of Leicheng.


    Therefore, with more grain, he is of little use.


    But there are countless slaves and ordinary people in Wulei City, who need food. Now, Zhang Xiu has asked Xun Yu to work as a relief, which can help the people.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu plans to make use of it again.


    It''s a pity not to use it.


    Zhang Xiu immediately ordered the soldiers to call Wang Yue to the study.


    Wang Yue said, "what''s your command?"


    Zhang Xiu immediately said that Jia sangyi and others wanted to jointly donate food, and finally said: "this batch of 200000 stone grain is not a small amount. It is also a waste to put surplus grain in grain depots. My plan is to distribute this batch of grain to the people. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, you have already given relief to the people. Do you still need to distribute food to the people free of charge? I''m afraid the people will not feel grateful if they give it to the people in this way. "


    Zhang Xiu is also weighing up when she hears the speech.


    Wang Yue''s consideration is indeed a truth.


    If you give too much for free, I''m afraid the people of Wulei city will not cherish everything at present.


    This is the reason why Wang Yue objected.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned, she had a plan in her heart, so she said, "this batch of grain is really good. We can''t give it to the people casually. Because once it is distributed at will, there will be too many people coming to collect it, and there will be too much uncertainty. "


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, adjust the plan. You arrange for the royal guards to send orders in the city. Tomorrow morning, we will gather the people of Wulei city outside the grain depot. I will announce it in front of the people. "


    When Wang Yue saw that Zhang Xiu had a plan, he turned to inform her.


    Zhang Xiu is perfecting her plan.


    It''s only half a day. The news that Zhang Xiu wants to announce in the grain depot has spread all over the city. For ordinary people, now they are grateful to Zhang Xiu, so when they hear that Zhang Xiu has something important to announce, they all decide to go.


    Jasanyi''s house.


    Now jasanyi and the people agreed on the distribution of food, and the nobles arranged for people to go back to convey orders.


    Arrange by yourself.


    All the nobles remained in the house of jasanyi. While jasanyi was having fun with a group of nobles, another servant returned and reported to jasanyi that Zhang Xiu wanted to announce a new order in the grain depot.


    Jasanyi said in a deep voice: "ladies and gentlemen, just now Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to announce the news. In my opinion, I''m afraid this news is about the grain we sent. It is even possible to distribute grain to Zhang Xiu on the spot. "


    "Damn it


    After hearing this, Avanti became angry.


    Previously, when he was in the Lord''s mansion, Afanti strongly opposed it and didn''t want to send food to Zhang Xiu immediately. However, under the circumstances at that time, it was impossible to refuse, so that the major families had to jointly send 200000 stone grains.


    Now, it has become a powerful tool for Zhang Xiu to win over the common people.


    Jia sangyi said: "since we have known Zhang Xiu''s intention, we have to find a way to stop it."


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi''s plan will come out?"


    The crowd began to speak.


    There was hope on every face.


    For them, they were oppressed by Zhang Xiu in the city Lord''s mansion, so that they had to give Zhang Xiu 200000 stone grain ahead of time. They were extremely angry and even oppressed. Now, when they know Zhang Xiu''s intention, they won''t let her succeed easily. They have to stop her.


    Jasanyi was a wise man among them.


    We must have jasanyi''s advice to win.


    Jasanyi said: "let me think about it, this matter must be careful. We refuse Zhang Xiu today, which has already angered her. So that in the end, although promised to give food, stabilized Zhang Xiu. But Zhang Xiu''s heart, I''m afraid, also has a mustard. We must stabilize Zhang Xiu. We can''t make trouble before that. "


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi, don''t say that. You are the backbone of us. We will do what you say. As for the rest, we can''t manage so much. "


    "Yes, master jasanyi, just say it."


    "We''ll do as you say."


    "In a word, we can''t let Zhang Xiu win. This time, he will receive 200000 stone grain. This batch of grain is put together by the families of Wulei city. It''s not Zhang Xiu''s grain. He doesn''t care! "


    "This matter, must resist Zhang Xiu."One by one continuous opening, all is an attitude, can''t let Zhang Xiu better.


    They suffered a loss and couldn''t swallow it.


    Revenge must come back.


    Jasanyi fumbled for the beard under his jaw, laughed and said, "it''s very simple. There are countless slaves in my house or in your house. Since Zhang Xiu is going to open a warehouse to release grain and distribute all the grain to the people, let''s send all these people to get the grain. "


    After hearing this, Afanti said, "master jasanyi''s plan is really wonderful. There are at least tens of thousands of slaves in our families. If we send all these people to listen to Zhang Xiu and finally get food, our families can take back part of the food. "


    After a pause, Afanti continued: "this is an opportunity for Zhang Xiu to eat shriveled. We can''t miss it. Perhaps Zhang Xiu''s heart also thinks that this time he opened a warehouse outside the grain depot to release grain, which helped countless people. But in fact, he didn''t know that our families could earn countless grains through slaves. "


    As soon as the words came out, people around echoed.


    When they think of Zhang Xiu''s failure, their hearts are full of expectation. When they think of what will happen tomorrow, they feel happy.


    Two hundred thousand stone grain is not a matter for the families in Wulei city. What really made them uncomfortable was that they gave food to Zhang Xiu, but they had to be wronged.


    Jasanyi looked at one of the people who was talking with a big smile on his old face.


    This city without thunder cannot do without him, jasanyi.


    He is the backbone of everyone.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, someone came in again.


    This is the old housekeeper of the jasanyi family. When he entered the hall, he went straight to jasanyi, said something in a low voice, and then bowed to one side.


    After hearing this, jasanyi''s face was cold and fierce, and his eyebrows and eyes were murderous.


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi, but what happened?"


    Jasanyi replied, "because Zhang Xiu has let out the wind that she wants to abolish caste system, aristocracy and slaves. So today, in my house of jasanyi, there is a situation of slaves escaping. "


    "Today, three slaves fled."


    "Although there are not many people, from this point of view, Zhang Xiu''s action has shaken our foundation. This happened in my family. It''s the same with your family. "


    "It was Zhang Xiu who caused all this."


    "Zhang Xiu is the source of disaster."


    "Now, if we don''t kill Zhang Xiu, the turmoil of slaves will continue, and eventually even bring us great harm. Of course, under the current situation, it is not convenient for us to deal with these people. After all, we have no energy and spare time to capture the slaves who have left. "


    Jasanyi slapped on his thigh and said in a deep voice: "what we are going to do now is to suppress the news and prepare to deal with Zhang Xiu. Try our best to deal with Zhang Xiu and stabilize the situation of Wulei city as soon as possible. "


    Afanti said: "what master jasanyi said is that at present, Zhang Xiu must be killed as soon as possible. But Zhang Xiu won''t be able to dance for a few days. When Zhang Xiu comes to master jiasangyi''s house for a banquet, he can kill Zhang Xiu. "


    The crowd nodded.


    One by one, they gnash their teeth and hate Zhang Xiu to the bone.


    Even the house of jasanyi, where slaves fled, was bound to get worse. All this is caused by Zhang Xiu, so they are even more resentful of Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1284

    The next day, early in the morning.


    About six miles away from the Lord''s mansion, it is the granary of Wulei city.


    The granary covers a wide area and is built solidly. Not only that, outside the granary, there are troops stationed to ensure the safety of the granary. When Ji Mu was defeated and retreated, it was too late to destroy the granary, so that Zhang Xiu could easily seize the granary and control it.


    Outside the granary, it was also an open space.


    The terrain is very broad.


    It''s not a problem to accommodate more than 100000 people.


    And early in the morning, outside the granary, people have gathered one after another, around the granary, in twos and threes, talking about Zhang Xiu''s announcement.


    Most people think that Zhang Xiu is now ready to open a warehouse to release grain.


    Otherwise, the news will not be announced in the granary.


    With the passage of time, from all sides of the granary, a steady stream of people gathered. By the end of the day, the whole granary was already overcrowded, with countless people gathering.


    Looking around, it''s full of heads.


    There are countless black and white people. But these people have one thing in common. That is, these people are not fat people, they are all thin people, even skinny people.


    After all, they are ordinary people.


    There are even a lot of untouchables.


    On each face, are brimming with bright smile. Many people, in particular, carry sacks like sacks so that they can hold grain.


    In the crowd, there are Afanti and other nobility in Wulei city.


    These people are not here to get food.


    It''s for jokes.


    Around them, there were circles of slaves to ensure that Afanti and others would not be detained.


    As time goes by, many waiting people are anxious. While the people were waiting anxiously, suddenly, a voice came from not far away: "Your Majesty is here!"


    This voice comes, all eyes turn, Qi brush brush to see the direction of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu was protected by soldiers.


    Where he passed, the soldiers made way.


    Not long after, Zhang Xiu has come to the door of the granary. Standing on the platform already built at the door of the granary, his eyes swept the crowd outside the granary, which is also quite shocking.


    At a glance, the number of people gathered here is no less than 60000 or 70000.


    This is not a small number.


    Zhang Xiu coughed twice, then raised her hand and pressed it down to signal all the people to be quiet. The gathering of 60000 or 70000 people, even if it was a very low voice, when more people gathered together, the voice was buzzing, lingering outside the granary, making the whole granary outside noisy. Even if Zhang Xiu spoke, the people behind her could not hear him.


    As Zhang Xiu signaled the people to be quiet, and the boos of the people rang out, the whole scene gradually quieted down.


    Everyone was silent.


    A pair of eyes, fell on the body of Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "yesterday, I sent a notice in the city saying that I would announce the news outside the granary. As for the announcement, I didn''t say. You don''t know. You just speculate on it. "


    "However, many people don''t know why I chose to be in the granary. I tell you that the first reason is that the news to be announced has something to do with grain. The second is to let you know that I have enough food. "


    "There are countless grains in the granary of Wulei city."


    "In addition, today, all the nobles of Wulei city will join hands to donate 200000 stone grain to me, so that I can dispatch grain and stabilize the local situation."


    "The reason why I want to say these two pieces of news is that I want to tell you that I am not short of food. I have enough food in my hands at any time, and there will be no shortage of food. "


    Zhang Xiu talked and made an opening speech.


    This has nothing to do with the news Zhang Xiu wants to announce, but in fact, it is also a very important message.


    After hearing this, the people didn''t pay much attention to it.


    The reason is simple. They only want food. As for the others, they don''t care and are not interested.


    Zhang Xiu said, "there are three pieces of news I want to announce."


    "First, with the help of 200000 stone grain donated by the families of Wulei City, I plan to set up a special grain shop in Wulei city to be responsible for the purchase and sale of grain."


    "This grain shop, run by the government, is not only in pursuit of interests, but also in pursuit of public welfare effects and relief for the people. No matter how high the price of grain on the market is. "


    "The price of this grain shop will not change."


    Zhang Xiu continued, "this is my first arrangement. I will use the 200000 stone grain to enliven the business of grain merchants in Wulei City, so as to ensure that the people can buy grain easily, so that they will not be unable to buy grain even if they have money."


    All the people were happy when they heard the words.Although they did not distribute grain directly, it is not bad that they can buy grain at a very low price. With such a basic guarantee, the grain price of Wulei city can be reduced.


    When the people heard it, they cheered as well.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down again, indicating that all the people were quiet. After all the people who spoke were quiet, Zhang Xiu continued: "the second thing I want to announce is to continue to implement work relief in Wulei city. When the government recruits people to work, the amount of food you can get will double, so as to ensure that the whole family can eat and wear well. "


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    When Zhang Xiu''s new order came out, many people cheered and their hearts were filled with hope.


    They finally had a chance.


    They finally got through it.


    Compared with the cheers of the people, Afanti and others standing in the crowd are angry.


    What about the distribution of grain?


    Up to now, not a hair has been seen.


    Afanti was furious and clenched his fist. The rest of the nobility in Wulei city also had anger on their faces, just like Avanti, they were angry in their hearts. But they didn''t dare to show up, so they had to hide in the crowd.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the boiling noise of the people, the heart of a big stone is also landing.


    It''s done.


    Even if Zhang Xiu did not distribute food to the people, the people were glad to hear Zhang Xiu''s second news. Because they can earn money to support their families by working.


    After some discussion, the people spontaneously shut up.


    One by one, they stopped talking.


    With a faint smile in her mouth, Zhang Xiu said again: "the third point I want to say is that you are no longer guishuang people. Now, you should call yourself Qin people. Because now, you are the people under the rule of the Qin Dynasty. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I have said before that we should abolish slaves and nobles and caste system. Now I can tell you clearly that this matter will certainly be carried out, not for fun.


    The people are even more excited.


    For ordinary people, even slaves, they were targeted by the nobility of Wulei city and lived at the bottom of Wulei city. Now I have the chance to get rid of my identity and become a real person. I''m very glad.


    Seeing this, Afanti wanted to vomit blood.


    What about opening warehouses to release grain? "


    Afan saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t mention the issue of distributing grain, so he specially arranged a man to ask a slave under his command why he didn''t distribute grain.


    These words spread to Zhang Xiu''s ears.


    Many people also look at Zhang Xiu.


    Waiting for Zhang Xiu to explain.


    Zhang Xiu looks in the direction of Afanti and sees the questioner, but Afanti hides early. Even if Zhang Xiu takes a close look, she doesn''t find Afanti himself.


    Zhang Xiu stopped for a moment and explained, "in yesterday''s notice, I didn''t mention opening warehouses and releasing grain. I didn''t mention distributing grain. The reason why I chose to stay in the granary is to tell you that I have enough food to support my work and the operation of the shops. What''s more, in my opinion, it''s better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. Only if you can make money on your own is the long-term way


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I hope you can support a large family by your own ability."


    The people are in awe of Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu''s explanation, there was no common people criticizing Zhang Xiu, but they all supported her.


    Afanti stood not far away, looking at the explanation of Zhang Xiu. He wanted to aim at Zhang Xiu, but the slaves and the people around him recognized her, so Afanti''s words came to his lips and he didn''t dare to say them.


    Afanti stood in the crowd and could only watch Zhang Xiu persuade the people.


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, she has finished the matter. He just wants to win the hearts of the people with the help of this. Especially after Zhang Xiu''s words, countless people in Wulei City Trust Zhang Xiu, and they are willing to follow her.


    This curtain fell in the eyes of Avanti and others, but they were so angry that they wanted to vomit blood. Because this return of grain to Zhang Xiu, in vain to help Zhang Xiu a big favor, they did not get anything.


    Even, Afanti and others brought countless slaves to the granary to get food. But now Zhang Xiu does not open a warehouse to release grain, they are empty handed and busy.

 Chapter 1285

    Afan mentioned that the rest of the nobles in Wulei City scattered with their slaves. After all the slaves were settled in by the families, they all gathered in jasanyi''s residence, one by one looking angry.


    They were teased.


    They failed again.


    Afanti sighed: "master jasanyi, we went with a lot of slaves, and we didn''t get a grain of rice. From the beginning to the end, Zhang Xiu never wanted to distribute grain. "


    After a pause, Afanti said: "last time, we went to the city Lord''s mansion to see Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu coerced us to hand over 200000 stone grains and sent out the whole picture of Kushan. Now this time, the plan has failed. Now, I''m worried about whether Zhang Xiu can kill her when she comes to your house. "


    Others, too, have made their stand.


    One by one, they are worried.


    After all, the two calculations of Zhang Xiu have failed.


    Jasanyi looked around all the people and saw their faces filled with worry. With a light smile, he said: "if you are afraid and dare not calculate Zhang Xiu, then you can stop the plan. After all, today, we still donate food to Zhang Xiu, who is meritorious to Zhang Xiu. So stop planning at this time, Zhang Xiu will not deal with us. What do you think? "


    When they heard the words, they all laughed.


    It''s impossible to stop planning. It''s just a worry.


    They are just talking.


    After all, the contradiction between them and Zhang Xiu is irreconcilable. As long as Zhang Xiu wants to abolish the nobles and slaves and take away their interests, the contradiction will not be reconciled and there will be a war.


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi, I''m just a little worried. In fact, everyone and Zhang Xiu are irreconcilable. If Zhang Xiu survives, we will die; if Zhang Xiu dies, we will have a chance to live. Just now, it''s just some complaints. Don''t worry about it, you old man. "


    Jasanyi snorted and said in a deep voice: "if you have complaints, go back and find a place to vent them. Don''t nag in front of me. You''re under pressure, but I don''t have pressure. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Afanti quickly replied.


    The heads of the other major families were also busy with the agreement and apologized to jasanyi. They all know that they can''t deal with Zhang Xiu without the support and leadership of jasanyi.


    Afanti added: "master jasanyi, now we have failed again. Tell me, what shall we do? "


    The rest of you, look at jasanyi.


    Waiting for jasanyi''s answer.


    Jasanyi snorted and said in a deep voice, "what else can we do now. Now, we don''t need to do anything. We just need to wait for Zhang Xiu to come to our house for dinner. Then, we will kill Zhang Xiu with a knife and axe. Then, mobilize all the private soldiers and slaves of our family in Wulei city to defeat the Qin army in the city. Without Zhang Xiu, the Qin army was not effective enough, and it was not worth mentioning. "


    When they heard the speech, they nodded in agreement.


    In today''s situation, we can only follow this plan.


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi''s plan is excellent. But these days, I''m also thinking about ways to reduce Zhang Xiu''s vigilance. Today, I have come up with a solution. "


    "What can I do?" said jasanyi


    Afanti replied: "I heard that there are twin girls in master jasanyi''s house. They are young and graceful. Even master jasanyi has never touched them. This pair of women is the way to let Zhang Xiu reduce her vigilance again. "


    Jasanyi''s eyes narrowed and he said, "you mean, use the beauty trick."


    "That''s what I mean."


    Afanti said in a deep voice: "I know that people around a king like Zhang Xiu will search his body, and it is impossible to hide any sharp weapon. It''s impossible for the twins to kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "However, they can be used to influence Zhang Xiu. Now send them to Zhang Xiu''s side, affect Zhang Xiu''s judgment, even through them, understand Zhang Xiu to Jia sangyi master''s house to dinner arrangement


    "Only in this way can we be more sure to kill Zhang Xiu."


    "Master jasanyi, what do you think?"


    Speaking of this, Afanti continued: "we have only one chance to kill Zhang Xiu. Once this opportunity is lost, Zhang Xiu''s army will kill us and we will die. "


    "In the face of Zhang Xiu''s army, our families in Wulei city have some chances of winning unless Zhang Xiu is dead. As long as Zhang Xiu is here, we will face the Qin army, and there will be no chance of winning by half. "


    "It''s up to you to win or lose."


    "And we can only succeed, not fail."


    Afanti said in a deep voice: "master jasanyi, what do you think of my consideration?"


    Jasanyi frowned at this moment. That old face, a wrinkle taut, deep and vast eyes, but it is full of thinking. A pair of twin girls in his family were carefully cultivated by him.


    According to Daqin, he is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and he is also good at the art under the bed. Such a pair of twin women, that is a pair of beauty. Let jasanyi give it to Zhang Xiu, but he is a little reluctant.Others, however, did not persuade.


    One by one, they look at jasanyi, just waiting for jasanyi to make a decision. After all, this is the woman of jasanyi''s family. They can''t make a decision for jasanyi, they can only wait for jasanyi to make a decision.


    "Just, just!"


    Jasanyi is old but not dazzled.


    His eyes were solemn and he said in a deep voice: "now that I have decided to deal with Zhang Xiu, I can''t refuse to increase the chance of winning. We can''t refuse to adopt the plan just because it involves the old man. I agreed to Avanti''s plan. "


    Afanti was overjoyed, folded his hands, saluted to jasanyi respectfully, and said, "master jasanyi is really a wise man with determination and courage. I admire him."


    Others, too, flatter.


    But jasanyi shook his head. He left these people to have dinner together. After lunch, he took the twins of his family and went to the Lord''s house again in a carriage.


    But when jasanyi arrived, Zhang Xiu was not in the Lord''s mansion. He left the Lord''s mansion and went outside to check the work. After all, the relief work is in full swing. Zhang Xiu wants to see it in person.


    Today, what we are doing is not only the excavation of river channels, but also the reclamation of fields, and many other things. There are so many things to accommodate the people.


    Otherwise, it is impossible to provide so many jobs.


    Of course, mining by the government is still going on. However, today''s mining is no longer a slave. It is still a way of raising workers. The money will be settled, and the wages are better than the normal price of work relief.


    That''s right. There are actually more miners.


    Because you can make fast money.


    What''s more, they make a lot more money.


    Zhang Xiu made a thorough inspection to ensure that there was no problem with the work relief before returning. But when he returned to the Lord''s residence, it was almost midnight. Jasanyi and his men were waiting for nearly an hour in the Lord''s mansion.


    When Zhang Xiu just returned to the house, the servant reported that Jia sangyi was visiting. Instead of going to the Lord''s residence immediately, Zhang Xiu went back to the backyard, changed her clothes and went to the hall.

 Chapter 1286

    Jasanyi stayed in the hall for nearly an hour. Even though jasanyi was resourceful, he was still anxious after such a long wait. Especially with the passage of time, the more backward, jasanyi''s heart more uncomfortable.


    Fortunately, waiting for nearly an hour, finally waiting for the news of Zhang Xiu''s return.


    Zhang Xiu finally came back.


    Jasanyi twisted his buttocks twice. His body moved, and all his bones made a click sound, as if his skeleton were frozen. When jasanyi heard footsteps coming from outside the hall, he quickly stood up and looked at it.


    Sure enough, Zhang Xiu came back.


    Jasanyi leaned back slightly and said, "jasanyi, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "Mr. jasanyi, you don''t need to be polite. You have been here for nearly an hour. Oh, why wait at home all the time? Just leave the invitation and let the arranger know. I''ve been waiting for an hour. I''m sure I''m not feeling well


    "OK, OK," said jasanyi


    Facing Zhang Xiu, Jia sangyi dare not relax his vigilance.


    This embroidery is not simple.


    Even jasanyi sometimes felt that Zhang Xiu was not a young man, but an old fox who was deeper than him. He could not find any flaws in his handling of affairs.


    Zhang Xiu said, "is it because of food that Mr. jasanyi came here?"


    Jasanyi replied: "please rest assured, your majesty, that the grain of each family has been transported to the granary. You only need to count it before you can put it into the warehouse. It is expected that this will be finished within today. There are two things, old man


    Zhang Xiu said, "but it doesn''t hurt to say so!"


    "The first thing is about the Kushan map," said jasanyi. Before that, Afanti said that we would present the whole picture of Kushan to the emperor. Now, I have already brought it. "


    "Somebody


    Said jasanyi.


    At that time, the attendant waiting at the door immediately entered with a brocade box in his hand.


    This box is extremely valuable.


    The whole picture of Kushan is kept in the brocade box.


    Jasanyi took over, took the initiative to open the box, took out the map, and handed the box to the servant''s hand. Then, jasanyi opened the map, let Zhang Xiu look at it, said: "Your Majesty, you have a look, a general situation about Kushan on this map is very clear."


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu looked at it carefully, and her face was full of bright smiles.


    This map is not only marked with mountains and passes, but also marked with rivers and cities. With this map, Zhang Xiu entered the Kushan and had eyes, which is conducive to Zhang Xiu''s sweeping the Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu was very satisfied with the collection, said: "Mr. jasanyi said there are two things, then, you come to the second thing?"


    Jasanyi replied: "the second thing I want to tell you is that I know that there is no one who knows the cold and the hot around the emperor. As it happens, there is a suitable woman in the old family, and they are twins. The twins are not only beautiful, but also caring. Therefore, Lao Jiu specially sent it to his majesty, hoping that his Majesty would accept it. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is not necessary."


    Now, Zhang Xiu has known the intentions of Jia sangyi and others.


    Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu knows that jasanyi''s purpose is to paralyze him. Even, let the twins in his side to inquire about information, in order to control Zhang Xiu''s whereabouts and situation.


    Jasanyi quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, why is it unnecessary? Now the emperor entered Kushan. Although he was stationed in Wulei City, there was no one around him who knew the cold and the hot. Such a situation is certainly inappropriate. It''s better to have a woman to take care of it. Therefore, your Majesty must accept them. "


    After a pause, jasanyi continued: "I told them when I came here. These two people''s heart, is also very willing. If I turn them down now, won''t they be very sad? "


    Zhang Xiu sneered.


    Jasanyi, an old fox, can really say anything. He has a thick skin.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "bring people to have a look."


    "Yes


    Jasanyi was overjoyed.


    He immediately ordered the attendants standing at the door of the hall to go outside the Lord''s mansion and bring the twins. The twins, with pale complexion, slender body and graceful figure, are well developed although they are less than 20 years old.


    Up and down, the temperament is very good. In particular, they are now served by women in Daqin. Such a situation, but also a different style, is very good.


    Jasanyi said: "Your Majesty, the names of the twins are Lvzhu and Qiushuang. The difference between them is that there is a mole under the corner of my sister''s mouth. My sister''s eyes are a little bigger. Both of them are trained according to the standards of the Far East. They are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and their talents are excellent. "After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "yes, yes, you have a heart. But they''ve been cultivated by you, jasanyi, and I won''t be loved. Jasanyi, take the men back. "


    "No!"


    Jasanyi shook his head firmly.


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Jasanyi replied, "since I have brought them out, I have no reason to bring them back. Your majesty, please give me this opportunity. When I came here, I boasted to the other nobles in Wulei city that you would take green beads and autumn frost as gifts to the emperor. If the emperor does not accept it, I will be ridiculed if I take people back with me. "


    Zhang Xiuzheng said: "not so."


    Jasanyi said: "it must be so. The nobles in Wulei city all pay attention to the same face. Your majesty, you must give me this chance, otherwise I will be shameless. "


    "That''s all. I''ll take it."


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu said nothing more and accepted it directly.


    Even if this pair of twins came, they had ulterior motives, but Zhang Xiu would not disclose secrets.


    The two women couldn''t find out.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu finally answered, Jia sang Yi took a long breath and said, "Your Majesty, the matter has been settled, so the grass people will leave."


    Zhang xiudao: "walk slowly, don''t send!"


    Jasanyi bowed respectfully before turning away. But when he left, he took a meaningful look at the green pearl and autumn frost, and left without looking back.


    Zhang Xiu noticed Jia sangyi''s eyes.


    Obviously, there is a deep meaning in this.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes really fall on Lvzhu and Qiushuang. The two women in front of her are really in good shape, dressed in Hanfu and have a lot of temperament. However, for Zhang Xiu, they are not as good as his many confidants.


    That is to say, there are more different customs.


    That''s all.

 Chapter 1287

    Zhang Xiu''s arrangement for Lvzhu and Qiushuang is simple and crude. She puts the two women in the city master''s residence, but she doesn''t care about them. Because as long as jasanyi is there, Lvzhu and Qiushuang are suspicious, and may deliver news for jasanyi.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu does not care about them for the time being. After Zhang Xiu exterminates the nobles of Wulei City, Jia sangyi also loses power. At that time, Lvzhu and Qiushuang will naturally be solved.


    But Zhang Xiu idle green bead and autumn frost, did not go to tube two people, in the evening, two people have sent the message.


    When the news is sent back to jasanyi''s residence, jasanyi is angry to learn that Zhang Xiu doesn''t see green pearl and autumn frost at all. He gave them as gifts, but they are twins. They have all kinds of manners and are good at serving people.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t understand the customs.


    I didn''t even see you.


    It''s really irritating.


    Jasanyi''s anger turns to anger, but he has nothing to do. He really has no way to deal with this kind of person who has no desire or desire. After all, he can''t affect Zhang Xiu, he can only be anxious.


    Although Jia sangyi is angry, it is not necessarily how angry he is. After all, the reason why Jia sangyi wants to send Qiushuang and Lvzhu to Zhang Xiu is not how Zhang Xiu deals with Qiushuang and Lvzhu in the end, but that he needs to use this matter to dispel Zhang Xiu''s vigilance, so that Zhang Xiu can go to the banquet on time.


    Of course, if Zhang Xiu can indulge in gentleness, be convinced by Qiushuang and Lvzhu, and can reveal a lot of information, so that Qiushuang and Lvzhu can deliver information for Jia sangyi, that is the best.


    In this way, time flies.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it''s time for Zhang Xiu to go to jasanyi''s house for a banquet.


    On this day, in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu is still in accordance with the biological clock, get up early morning exercise, after eating early meal, and rest for a while, just called Wang Yue, told Wang Yue to prepare to go to jasanyi mansion.


    I have to go through it myself.


    And this time, it''s time for the other side to see each other. Wang Yue, on the contrary, has adequate arrangements. Therefore, Wang Yue''s heart did not doubt the battle, but rather looked forward to it.


    Zhang Xiu takes Wang Yue and goes to jasanyi''s residence.


    Accompanied by Zhang Xiu are shamoko, Lu Bu, Shi a, Deng Zhan and others. These generals are now responsible for protecting Zhang Xiu''s safety.


    Even if there is a mess, it can be dealt with in time.


    Moreover, the earlier Wang was outside the residence of jasanyi, he also arranged an ambush for the royal guards. Once there is a mess, you can immediately make a response to ensure the safety of Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu went to jasanyi''s residence, everything was in full swing. It''s not only about arranging banquets, but also about the layout of Zhang Xiu.


    Avanti and the rest of the nobility of Wulei city were all present.


    Everyone assisted in the layout of jasanyi.


    After all the swordsmen on both sides of the hall were in place, jasanyi looked at Afanti and others and said, "everyone, now everything is ready. You see, there is still something that hasn''t been done."


    "Not for the time being!"


    Avanti replied, squinting.


    After all, they arranged all this together, and the layout of everything was very strict.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a sentinel quickly entered.


    The sentinel came to jasanyi''s side and reported: "master jasanyi, the people who are staring at the city Lord''s mansion send back the news. At present, Zhang Xiu has taken people out of the house and come up to our house. "


    Once mulberry Yi embroidered with a bead: "can this Zhang green?"


    "No!"


    The sentry gave a concise answer.


    Jasanyi sighed and said: "Zhang Xiu is really not simple. Lu Zhu and Qiu Shuang are both beauties with outstanding beauty and enchanting figure. However, Zhang Xiu has never met them from the beginning to the end, and does not bring them today. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is on guard against us. She can''t show any slack. "


    Afanti said with a smile: "master jasanyi, even Zhang Xiu has never revealed any flaw. But for us, it doesn''t matter. Because Zhang Xiu came to the banquet, he had decided everything. "


    Jasanyi said: "you have to be careful. I heard that Zhang Xiu is very good. Therefore, the arrangement of the swordsman, must be able to fight, can fight to death around Zhang Xiu. Otherwise, once Zhang Xiu escapes, the consequences will be unimaginable. "


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi, the people who surround and kill Zhang Xiu are not only the warriors of our major families, but also the people of your family. Especially this time, it''s mainly the warriors in your family. You should rest assured. "


    Jasanyi nodded, but said nothing more.


    But he told everyone to be careful.


    Jasanyi is cautious. Even now, jasanyi has made all the arrangements properly, but his cautious nature has played a role, prompting jasanyi to take people to check all the arrangements carefully, and then he returns to the hall to wait quietly.


    Time goes by.


    When the attendant entered and reported that Zhang Xiu''s car had arrived, jasanyi was shocked and slightly trembled. Immediately, jasanyi had already stood up, took Afan to mention the rest of the nobility of Wulei City, and went to the gate of the mansion.Shortly after jasanyi arrived at the door, Zhang Xiu''s car had stopped.


    Zhang Xiu comes down from the carriage, and Lv Bu, Wang Yue and others wait around to ensure her safety.


    Jasanyi swept his eyes and was calm.


    The reason is very simple, jasanyi found that Zhang Xiu''s side, even more than 30 guards. Even if Jia sangyi is able to kill more than ten people in Bingqu, he is confident enough.


    Jasanyi''s old face was full of smiles, and he said: "Your Majesty, please come to your house. It''s really beautiful. Your majesty, please come inside!"


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu nodded with a smile.


    Come in with your attendants.


    After the party entered the house, Zhang Xiu took a look around. The house of jasanyi was quite luxurious. Moreover, in terms of layout, it has the style of Daqin, which is quite different from the local style of Wulei city.


    Shortly after, Zhang Xiu brought people into the hall.


    Along with them came Lu Bu, Sha Mo Ke, Deng Zhan and Shi A. Wang Yue and the other 30 soldiers, all stationed outside the hall.


    As soon as there is any change, Wang Yue can take action immediately.


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu is sitting in the first place on the left, the first place on the right is Avanti, and the rest of the nobility of Wulei city are sitting in turn. Shamoko, Lubu, Shi''a and Deng Zhan were sitting in front of Zhang Xiu.


    Jasanyi sat on the throne. He looked around at everyone. Finally, his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He said slowly, "Your Majesty, it''s a great honor for me to come to the banquet in person. On behalf of the Brahman race in Wulei City, Laojiu thanks his majesty for his kindness. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you''re welcome!"


    Jasanyi continued: "this is a grand event of my Brahman race. On this occasion, we should celebrate, and even more should raise our glasses and drink together. Have a full drink, everyone


    With that, jasanyi picked up the glass of wine in front of him. When ah fan mentioned the others, he picked up the wine one after another and looked at Zhang Xiu, because they all had to respect Zhang Xiu.


    Jasanyi looks at Zhang Xiu with expectation in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at the people and looked at the wine bottle that had been filled in front of her. Her eyes narrowed. She just tilted her head slightly and nodded to Shi a behind her. Then she saw Shi a get up and move forward.


    He took out a silver needle and inserted it into the drink.


    At that time, the silver needle changed color.


    Zhang Xiu raised a cold color at the corner of her mouth, looked up at Jia sangyi, and said: "Jia sangyi, this method is really very simple, and there is no technical content. You really have the guts to poison wine


    Jasanyi looked as usual, did not change any color, said: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood. This glass of wine is not poisoned. Even if you test with a silver needle, it''s a test error. "


    There was also a touch of regret on his face.


    Unfortunately, it failed.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t doubt it, she will drink the wine in one gulp. Then you can kill Zhang Xiu without a knife or an axe. Of course, for such a simple plan, jasanyi just arranged it without much hope.


    If it can be done, it will be done.


    Zhang Xiu saw that Jia sangyi''s appearance was really extravagant, and said with emotion: "he is a man of his age, and his face is thicker than that of the city wall. Even if it is me, I sigh for myself. But since you don''t think it''s poisonous, I''ll give you this glass of wine. Come here and drink this glass of wine


    Jasanyi remained unmoved and said, "Your Majesty, no one of us can drink this glass of wine. The glass of wine in front of you is the special wine of the emperor, which belongs to you. You can only drink it by yourself. Your majesty, if it''s superfluous, you don''t have to say it again. You''d better drink the bar first. "


    Zhang xiudao: "I don''t want to drink it. I''ll give it to you."


    Jasanyi''s old face was gradually gloomy. In his deep eyes, there was a cool color. He said coldly, "I''m very kind to invite you. I hope your majesty will enjoy drinking. However, his Majesty was not willing to cooperate from beginning to end. It seems that I don''t want to give my face. Your majesty, don''t blame me for being so shameless. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I want to see how you plan to do it. Do you dare to fight me, jasanyi? "


    He had expectations in his eyes.


    Because all the arrangements of jasanyi are in Zhang Xiu''s expectation.


    Jasanyi grabbed the bottle in his hand and threw it out. With a bang, the bottle fell to the ground and the wine spilled all over the ground. The next moment, on the left and right sides of the hall, suddenly a hatchet man rushed out.


    There are more than 100 people in this group.


    Fortunately, the hall of jasanyi''s mansion is wide and can accommodate hundreds of people. More than 100 people were hiding on both sides of the hall. Now they were killed and quickly blocked the gate.


    No one is allowed in or out.


    This is to prevent Zhang Xiu from breaking through the encirclement, and also to prevent the royal guards soldiers arranged by Zhang Xiu outside the hall.Zhang Xiu looks at the private soldiers in the house of jasanyi with a knife and a fierce face. There is still no panic on her face. On the contrary, she is very calm. With a solemn look on his face, he said again, "jasanyi, is there any other means? If you think you can kill me just by these swordsmen, it''s a big mistake. I''m outside the hall now, but there are still dozens of people. "


    Jasanyi said: "Zhang Xiu, just have a try. In today''s situation, you will definitely lose. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "if you don''t die, you won''t die."


    Jasanyi scolded: "bastard Zhang Xiu, I don''t want you to interrupt me. Since you have nothing to say, don''t say it. Now you have to resist. I''ll take you on the road. "


    "Kill


    Jasanyi didn''t say much and ordered directly.


    "Kill


    Nearly a hundred private soldiers from the jasanyi family, together with private soldiers from Afanti and other major families, are now together. Zhang xiudao, the most powerful one, rushed to the position where he was.

 Chapter 1288

    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    When Zhang Xiu saw the murderer, there was a touch of irony in the corner of her mouth. For the nobility of Wulei City, Zhang Xiu has long been on guard. And Zhang Xiu from the beginning, it is very clear that he and no thunder city aristocracy, is the relationship between fire and water.


    There is no reconciliation with these nobles.


    After all, the nobility of Wulei city occupied too much voluntariness and control too much power. As long as the nobility of Wulei city has been there, the people of Wulei city will not be liberated.


    So Zhang Xiu has always been prepared.


    Zhang Xiu hasn''t moved yet, but Lu Bu and shamoke have already entered the front to meet the swordsmen. Both Lubu and shamoko carry their own weapons.


    To travel and fight, weapons are needed.


    The halberd of Fang Tianhua in Lv Bu''s hand swung up and stepped out. He had already come to Zhang Xiu''s body and stood in front of the murderers. Said late, then fast, a swordsman rushed to Zhang Xiu body, swung the knife to cut down.


    "Don''t think too much of yourself!"


    Lu Bu''s painting of halberd flying in the air.


    With one blow, the blade of the swordsman was cut off, and Fang Tian''s painting halberd continued to fall. With a pee, it fell on the swordsman''s chest. The blade of the halberd fell and the blood spattered. The swordsman was immediately killed and fell on the ground.


    On the other side, the swordsman was hit by the bone of Tribulus terrestris. The huge bone of Tribulus terrestris smashed on the body, and the chest of the swordsman was broken. When the body fell back to the ground, it was already eyeball protruding, and there was no breath.


    Either shamoko or Lubu are tiger generals.


    Two people stand, like two mountains, standing in front of Zhang Xiu''s body, is simply indestructible.


    Even though there are a large number of swordsmen, they can''t make any progress.


    There are also swordsmen around the back, intending to attack from the back of Zhang Xiu, but behind Zhang Xiu, there are Shi a and Deng Zhan. Two men and two swords, sword light flickering, one by one close to the swordsman, then all were killed.


    More and more people are killed and injured.


    However, still can not be close to Zhang Xiu.


    Especially at this time, Wang Yue with people from outside to kill, even if it was blocked by the swordsman. However, a group of royal guards led by Wang Yue had outstanding swordsmanship and pushed forward quickly.


    Afanti saw the fight in his eyes. His eyes were sharp. There was a little worry in his eyes. He said: "master jasanyi, the situation is very bad. The swordsman we arranged can''t kill Zhang Xiu. "


    "Look at the four people around Zhang Xiu, all of them are very powerful. These four men actually blocked the attack of all the swordsmen. Besides, look at the entrance of the hall. The person that Zhang Xiu brings, even if it is only more than 30 people, but these people are incomparably fierce, fast forward horizontal push rolling


    "The swordsmen we arranged, that is to say, rely on a large number of people to resist for a while. It is estimated that in a quarter of an hour at most, the swordsman will be killed through. "


    "Maybe even a quarter of an hour. Master jasanyi, we are in a bad situation! "


    Afanti''s heart is very urgent.


    In fact, Avanti himself is also a man of great wisdom. But at the moment, Afanti''s heart, but also extremely nervous, worried that this group of swordsmen, unable to kill Zhang Xiu.


    With a smile in his mouth, jasanyi said, "don''t worry, it''s not a big problem. I have long considered such a situation. So the private soldiers in your house have already been in place and are ready to fight at any time. "


    "Come on, herald!"


    Jasanyi immediately gave the order.


    After jasanyi gave the order, the people around him rushed out quickly and gave the order.


    "Dong! Dong


    Immediately after that, the battle drums began to ring.


    Drums rumble through the house.


    With the sound of the drums, a thousand private soldiers, who had been in array for a long time, came to the front hall in the school yard behind the house of jasanyi. In a short time, the 1000 private soldiers had already arrived at the front hall, intervened in the hall, and began to attack the rear of Wang Yue.


    Seeing the private soldiers killed, Afanti gave a thumbs up and said, "it''s still Mr. jasanyi''s resourceful and arranged for the soldiers to be in town early. Now, with your private soldiers in the battlefield, it''s easy to kill Zhang Xiu this time. "


    Jasanyi stroked his beard under his jaw with pride.


    If he wants to kill Zhang Xiu, he will not give her any chance. This time, he is sure to win.


    As the private soldiers approached Wang Yue and his party, Wang Yue''s forward attack suddenly stopped and turned to resist the private soldiers'' attack from the rear. Fortunately, the royal guards under Wang Yue''s command are all good at fighting. They are all good at fighting. Even in the face of private soldiers who have been killed so many times, in a short time, the royal guards led by Wang Yue never show any signs of defeat.


    "Let go of the arrow!"


    Wang Yue immediately gave an order to the royal guards around him.


    The soldier was ordered to quickly take out the arrow and let it out of the hall.


    "Whew!"


    The arrow blasted off and exploded from the air.After the sound came out, the soldiers who had been ambushing in the house of jasanyi were killed quickly. The leader of the army was Ganning. He led 800 elite soldiers to ambush in secret.


    According to Wang Yue''s arrangement, his original intention was to mobilize the royal guards to decorate. However, Gan Ning has nothing to do now, he volunteered, so he came with 800 elite soldiers.


    "Sons, your majesty has been schemed by villains. Let me kill them. Kill these damned nobles in Wulei city."


    Ganning growled.


    His voice was filled with endless joy.


    It''s the joy of going to war.


    In fact, Gan Ning is not worried about Zhang Xiu''s safety. Because around Zhang Xiu, there are not only shamoko and Lvbu, but also Shia and Dengzhan, as well as more than 30 royal guards led by Wang Yue. In a short time, it is impossible to be defeated.


    This is Gan Ning''s confidence.


    Ganning with people, fast forward, in a moment, has been close to the door of jasanyi mansion.


    "Kill me in!"


    Ganning roared. Seeing someone guarding the door, Ganning swung his sword. Under the cold light of the knife, the private soldier was killed by Gan Ning with a spatter of blood and a scream.


    Eight hundred elite soldiers followed, but in the blink of an eye, they had already entered the house.


    Ganning saw the private soldiers attacking the hall. With a wave, his army had already launched an attack. Regardless of the life or death of these private soldiers of jasanyi, he swung his knife and cut into the hall like chopping melons and vegetables.


    No one can stop them.


    This scene fell into Wang Yue''s eyes. Wang Yue was under great pressure. Suddenly, he heard the cry of killing outside the hall. Seeing Gan Ning killing, he was inspired and roared: "reinforcements are coming. Don''t worry about the people in the rear. Kill them. Follow me and kill the nobles in Wulei city first."


    Previously, it was because of private soldiers.


    Wang Yue had to stop the private soldiers who came to the hall. If he could not stop these people, Zhang Xiu''s safety would be in danger. Now, with Gan Ning to kill, these private soldiers are not afraid.


    So Wang Yue gave up his resistance.


    Turn inside.


    After Wang Yue went to kill Zhang Xiu, the swordsman who had killed Zhang Xiu couldn''t carry it. Even if these swordsmen are powerful, they are all warriors from different families. However, Lu Bu, shamoko, Deng Zhan and Shi a are all tiger generals on the battlefield. Therefore, even if there are many swordsmen, they have never suppressed Lu Bu and others.


    On the contrary, people were killed and injured all over the place.


    The casualties of the swordsmen are very high.


    Zhang Xiu shakes her robes. At this time, she stands up. Her eyes fall on jasanyi''s body, with a smile on her lips. It''s just that the smile is full of senhan''s killing intention.

 Chapter 1289

    At this moment, jasanyi could not help shivering, and his heart was inexplicably cold.


    My heart was suddenly filled with fear.


    In particular, Jia sangyi was even more nervous when he saw that his private soldiers had been dragged down and even slaughtered by Daqin soldiers who had been killed in the house. For a time, jasanyi has been flustered, because he is now in a situation of life and death.


    Jasanyi laid out three measures.


    The first means is to poison Zhang Xiu with the help of poison liquor. Because Zhang Xiu is smart, poison liquor doesn''t work.


    The second method is to encircle and kill with swordsmen.


    However, because Lu Bu, Sha Mo Ke, Deng Zhan and Shi a are around Zhang Xiu, it seems that there is an iron wall around her. Even if the swordsmen are fierce, they can''t get close to her.


    Even so, jasanyi has private soldiers in his family, which is his third means. But now, even the arrangement of private soldiers has been suppressed, so jasanyi has lost his consistent stability and become very anxious.


    Even more so for Avanti.


    Afanti said: "master jasanyi, we can''t handle the bad things. What else do you have to do? Let''s do it. If you don''t do it now, it''s too late. "


    Jasanyi''s cheek twitches. What else can he do? Now, he is at the end of his tether. He has no extra means. After all, he is a bad old man.


    "Bang!"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu has drawn her sword.


    Zhang Xiu''s overlord gun is not around, but the sword in her hand is a magic weapon. With a sword in hand, Zhang Xiu has broken away from the encirclement built by Lu Bu and shamoko and entered the hands of the sword and axe.


    "Jasanyi, I''ve come to get your dog."


    Zhang Xiu''s thick voice resounded in the hall. He turned into a streamer. With the flashing of the sword light, the blood splashed, and the swordsmen who stood in front of Zhang Xiu were killed one after another.


    No one can stop Zhang Xiu.


    A moment later, Zhang Xiu had already killed jasanyi, and the sword in her hand stabbed out quickly.


    "No, I don''t want to die."


    Jasanyi saw the sword, he quickly turned to avoid, hiding in the nobility of no thunder city. Moreover, around jasanyi, there are swordsmen gathering to protect jasanyi''s safety.


    These swordsmen attack Zhang Xiu again.


    "To die!"


    Zhang Xiu sneers and the sword goes with her heart.


    His sword moves are very casual, but each move is like an antelope hanging a horn. He has no trace, but he kills people invisibly. All the swordsmen close to Zhang Xiu were killed.


    This scene makes Zhang Xiu''s Swordsman feel cold.


    I''m afraid of being killed.


    Originally, there were still people close to Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu''s killing for a short time made the hands of these swords and axes afraid to rush forward. They kept retreating one by one, just around jasanyi, just to protect jasanyi''s safety.


    Avanti was exposed.


    He wants to retreat, but Afanti''s speed is slow, and Zhang Xiu catches up with him.


    "It''s over!"


    Afanti''s heart gave birth to despair.


    But Afanti is also quick reaction, he found that Zhang xiuti sword stab, to kill him moment, decisive kneel on the ground, loud voice: "Your Majesty, I am willing to surrender, willing to submit to Daqin, for Daqin service."


    "It''s late!"


    Zhang Xiu light way: "I don''t need!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s words falling, the sword in his hand has reached Afanti''s neck.


    "Yes


    The sword blade cut off obliquely, cutting the neck and the main artery of Avanti''s neck. For a time, the blood flowed like a flood, and the splashed blood fell on the ground, forming patches of blood.


    Afanti quickly raised his hand to cover the wound of his neck, but his eyes were quickly dizzy, and the colorful brilliance suddenly became dark.


    Plop!


    Avanti fell to the ground.


    No more breath.


    Warm blood, still flowing from Afanti''s neck, soon formed a pool of blood on the ground. Just Zhang Xiu, but never went to manage Avanti.


    For Zhang Xiu, he just killed a nobody.


    He took the sword and went on killing.


    Zhang Xiu''s killing is still going on, and the people in front of Zhang Xiu are no longer swordsmen. Because the swordsmen have been afraid of being killed by Zhang Xiu. What they expose are the nobles in the city without thunder.


    These people also came to the party.


    Now, there is no resistance. Even these people are armed. But in Zhang Xiu''s eyes, just like a three-year-old child, she can''t use weapons at all.


    "Don''t kill me!"


    In the crowd, a nobleman knelt on the ground and said, "I don''t want to die. I really don''t want to die! I''m willing to surrender, I''m willing to give up all my family property, and I''m willing to cooperate with Daqin in doing things. ""Don''t kill me. I have a lot of money. I''m willing to cooperate."


    "I am willing to submit to Daqin."


    "We are all forced, not voluntary."


    One by one, seeing the nobles of Wulei City killed by Zhang Xiu, at this moment, they were frightened and even more frightened. They knelt down and begged for mercy, hoping to get away with it.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not give them any preferential treatment.


    There is only one word - kill!


    All the nobles in Wulei city and those who took part in the war were killed.


    He doesn''t need a bunch of worms that suck the blood of the people.


    If Zhang Xiu doesn''t kill now, then there''s no need to abolish the aristocracy and get rid of the caste system fees of Kushan. With such a premise, no matter how the nobles of Wulei City beg for mercy, Zhang Xiu will not be soft hearted.


    He carried the sword and killed all the way.


    The nobles of Wulei city fell under Zhang Xiu''s sword.


    Drop by drop of blood fell from the blade.


    Jasanyi saw Zhang Xiu''s merciless killing, and his cheek twitched. The wrinkled face was dignified. He was also a man who had been an official in Peshawar and was well-informed. But, Zhang Xiu such person, he is the first encounter.


    This man is too cruel.


    Do things without leaving the slightest room.


    Kill them all.


    Jasanyi felt that his throat was a little dry. He summoned up all his courage and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, do you really want to kill me. Kill the nobles of our no thunder city, and the whole no thunder city will be paralyzed. "


    "The people in the Lord''s mansion are from the nobility of Wulei city."


    "It''s the nobles of Wulei city who are in charge of keeping order."


    "It is the nobles who govern the place."


    "Everything is maintained by the nobles of mine free city. Once you kill a lot, the balance is broken. All nobles will resist you, and then you will be unable to do anything. "


    Jasanyi is already extremely afraid, but he does not want to die, and Zhang Xiu is not willing to stop, so jasanyi threatened: "Zhang Xiu, you killed all the people, in the end, no one works, what you get is empty shelf, it is not worth it."


    "No, it''s worth it!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face was cold, just like a demon.


    He was already stained with blood.


    On his cheek, there was more splashing blood, which made Zhang Xiu more fierce against the background of blood stains. He constantly slaughtered the nobles of Wulei City, and finally came to jasanyi.


    Jasanyi had no choice but to retreat. With a plop, he fell to the ground. With his hands behind his back, he could not help retreating, and his face showed a look of panic. He continued: "Zhang Xiu, if you want to clean up the whole Kushan, then your killing today is self destruction. You have killed the nobles in Wulei city. The whole Kushan will resist you. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I''m not afraid! If the whole noble of Kushan wants to block and resist me, then I don''t mind slaughtering the whole noble of Kushan. "


    "Hiss!"


    Jasanyi took a cool breath.


    It''s even more frightening in my eyes.


    Zhang Xiu is so terrible. It''s killing and willpower. It''s frightening. He even began to regret it in his heart. If I knew this, I should cooperate with Zhang Xiu. I shouldn''t be the enemy of Zhang Xiu.


    Unfortunately, it''s too late.

 Chapter 1290

    Jasanyi''s heart is filled with fear. He bit his teeth and retreated a little bit, but after a moment, his back was already low on the wall, and he could not retreat any more.


    But Zhang Xiu is still approaching step by step with her bloody sword.


    Every step, as if trampling on jasanyi''s heart, makes jasanyi''s heart, full of fear. The rising blood made jasanyi''s cheek red.


    "No, don''t kill me."


    "You can''t kill me."


    "I don''t want to die."


    Jasanyi''s mouth, bolt words.


    Even so, his voice, but gradually some hoarse. That endless fear, as well as endless uneasiness, has engulfed jasanyi''s brain, making jasanyi''s brain, there is a brief blank.


    Zhang Xiu listens to Jia sangyi''s nonsense, her eyes are still firm, and she never has the slightest intention to change her mind. After he got close to jasanyi, he said faintly, "in the next life, remember not to be my enemy again."


    Voice down, a sword swept.


    "Yes


    The sharp light of the sword cut jasanyi''s neck.


    The red blood splashed all over the ground.


    Jasanyi''s body struggled twice, then he lost his breath and collapsed to the ground. After the killing of jasanyi, Zhang Xiu turned back and, together with Lu Bu and shamoko, continued to slaughter the nobles of Wulei city who attended the banquet.


    At this banquet, the whole nobility of Wulei city was there.


    The gathering of these people has reduced Zhang Xiu''s trouble. Because after the whole nobles of Wulei city are caught, then they can easily seal up all nobles of Wulei city.


    Even the swordsmen were still fighting, but when jasanyi was killed, the swordsmen lost their backbone, and they were all in a panic. In a short time, they were killed together.


    Wang Yue mobilized the royal guards under his command and went out to kill the private soldiers in his family.


    This war did not last long.


    In less than half an hour, the private soldiers of jasanyi''s family had been killed, leaving no one alive. Zhang Xiu left Ganning to deal with jiasangyi''s residence, checked the residence, demobilized the people, and dealt with jiasangyi''s lineage.


    After Zhang Xiu returns with Wang Yue, he doesn''t go to wash immediately. Instead, he orders Wang Yue to immediately mobilize the royal guards who have been arranged for a long time to thoroughly check the noble families in Wulei city.


    This operation was carried out almost at the same time.


    This action is even more powerful.


    For ordinary people in Wulei City, such an action is simply a great delight. But for the nobles in Wulei City, it was a disaster to them.


    In a short period of half a day, all the nobles in Wulei city were checked.


    Countless people''s heads fell to the ground.


    Countless people have been demobilized.


    At ten o''clock in the evening, Wang Yue came to Zhang Xiu''s study and reported: "Your Majesty, all the noble mansions in Wulei city have been checked. This is the statistical data, please review it. "


    With that, Wang Yue handed over a book.


    Zhang Xiu took over, looking at this thick book, some surprised. Because this book is very thick, it can be seen that there are many things recorded. He turned to the first page, which recorded the voluntary resources held by the jasanyi family, from money, to food, to land, and even slaves, and so on.


    From the jasanyi family, to the Afanti family, and then to the whole noble family of Wulei City, all the resources are clearly recorded. On the last page of this book is a summary of the money, land and grain collected.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath after reading it.


    That''s too much.


    There is so much money. The grain collected is much more than the grain stored in the grain depot of Wulei city. Zhang Xiu was shocked by such a situation.


    Zhang Xiu said with emotion: "the nobles of Wulei city really mastered nearly 90% of the resources of the whole Wulei city. The people of Wulei city are living too hard. "


    Wang Yue said, "what your majesty said is true. If it wasn''t for your majesty, the people in Wulei city would have been living in dire straits all the time. Because of your Majesty''s presence, they are now able to walk out of the abyss and hell. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "it''s really hard for the people of Kushan."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "all the grain and money are stored in the warehouse. As for the land seized, I have my own arrangements. Now that the situation in Lei Gang is not stable, there is no need to kill the nobles first


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue responded respectfully.


    After Wang Yue left, Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to call Xun Yu. Today, Xun Yu is responsible for the local governance. If Wulei city was set up in Daqin, it was equivalent to the existence of a state, but guishuang had no arrangement of States and counties, so Xunzhou''s first step was to reform Wulei city.This is not an easy thing.


    We need to push forward one by one.


    However, although Xun Yu was busy, he also felt full, because such a day, he also felt very good. At least, it''s no longer a waste, and he''s really opening up territory.


    Xun Yu entered the room, bowed himself and said, "Your Majesty, I don''t know what you want to tell me."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the reason why I called you is that today, all the nobles in Wulei city have been killed. Now, without the support of this group of nobles, the city without thunder is likely to be in trouble. So this time, you have to work harder. The local operation and the advancement of various affairs should not be affected. "


    Xun Yu said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that everything is working properly and there has never been any trouble. What''s more, the main framework of Wulei city is in place. What I want to promote now is to re select officials and enrich them to the local level. "


    Zhang xiudao: "yes, it''s hard work."


    Xun Yu said: "I''m not hard-working, but now I have some things that need your Majesty''s approval."


    Zhang xiudao said, "it''s OK to say anything."


    Xun Yu replied: "today, Wulei city is full of waste. It needs a lot of money to recruit people to do things, to give salaries and money. Even in the money bank of Wulei City, there is a lot of money. However, there are too many places to spend money nowadays. The most important thing is that the implementation of work relief consumes countless amounts of money and food every day. Therefore, I hope your majesty can allocate food and money to ensure the stability of money and food. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "this is not difficult!"


    With these words, Zhang Xiu handed the book that Wang Yuegang had handed to Xun Yu and said with a smile, "this book is the money and grain that has just been collected today. The details of the families in Wulei city are very rich. All the money and grain have been put into storage. You''re going to have to do whatever you want next. "


    Xun Yu opened the book and scanned it quickly.


    When he saw the data recorded in the book, he felt numb, and his face was full of shock. He said with emotion: "Your Majesty, this noble of no thunder city occupies too many resources. However, with this batch of grain and money, we will speed up the reform of the whole Wulei city. The most important thing is that Chen is also ready to select talents in Wulei city and enrich them in local areas. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you can arrange it, but I will not interfere. If you need my help, just say so. "


    "I understand


    Xun Yu nodded solemnly.


    Now he is full of energy and excitement.


    With enough money and food, he has the strength to carry out reform. Even the reform of Wulei city will accelerate and advance rapidly.


    That''s why money is good for business.


    Without much delay, Xun Yu turned around and left.


    Now he has many ideas in his mind. Now he wants to go back to his office and make a careful plan. What to do next and how to do it, so as to continue to promote the reform of Wulei city.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, a soldier entered and reported: "Your Majesty, shamoko is here. He said he had something important to report."


    "Please


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When the soldier got the order, he went to inform him immediately.


    After a while, shamoke came in with a smile on his face. After he stood still, he saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully and said, "minister shamoke, meet your majesty."


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "you''ve been in the army all day. It''s rare for you to come to see me. Now I''m in a hurry, but what happened? "

 Chapter 1291

    Shamoko looked excited and said, "Your Majesty, this time, it''s not a bad thing, it''s a good thing. I''ve found a good thing and I''ve dedicated it to your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s good?"


    Shamoko then took out a burnt yellow leaf from his sleeve. This leaf is rather slender. Shamoko carried the leaf in his left hand, but took out a bamboo tube thick with his little finger in his right.


    He rolled up the leaves, inserted them into one end of the bamboo tube, lit them, put the other end in his mouth and took a deep breath.


    Rich smoke, inhaled in the mouth.


    At this time, shamoko choked, but after choking his nose, shamoko gradually showed a look of indulging, a look of intoxication.


    After a while, shamoko took a puff of smoke out of his mouth.


    Shamoko twisted his body and said, "Your Majesty, this is what I want to offer. I call it tobacco. When I inhale it in my mouth, it''s quite spicy and even irritates my nose. But after that, it''s very comfortable. "


    Zhang Xiu looked in her eyes, but she laughed.


    This is tobacco.


    Shamoko doesn''t know what this is, but Zhang Xiu does.


    This is a good thing.


    In later generations, there were countless smokers who made different cigarettes from tobacco leaves. Such cigarettes are popular all over the world. Even if Zhang Xiu was a smoker in later generations.


    Zhang Xiu asked: "shamoko, where did you get the tobacco?"


    Shamoko said with a smile: "tell your majesty that the reason why I got the tobacco leaves was from the military interpreter. He said it was a good thing, but few people used it. It''s just one of the soldiers


    Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand and said, "is there anything else?"


    "Yes!"


    From his sleeve, he took out a piece of folded tobacco and handed it to Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu took it over, she put the tobacco leaves in her nostrils and sniffed it gently. Suddenly, a strong smell of tobacco, rushed into the nose. Such a taste, compared with direct smoking, more gentle and light, but let Zhang Xiu spirit shock, only feel very comfortable.


    Familiar taste!


    Zhang Xiu showed a bright smile on her face.


    Shamoke looked at Zhang Xiu''s familiar appearance, blinked, a strange look. Shamoko followed Zhang Xiu for some years. He was very determined that Zhang Xiu had never seen or smoked tobacco.


    But looking at Zhang Xiu''s familiarity, he even has an illusion that even the translation of teaching him to smoke tobacco leaves is not as familiar as Zhang Xiu''s, because Zhang Xiu''s action and posture are too skilled.


    There is also a sense of art.


    That''s what shocked him.


    "Your Majesty, have you ever seen this before?" asked shamoko


    Zhang Xiu said: "I haven''t seen it!"


    He has never seen tobacco in his life. After all, in today''s Daqin, there is no tobacco and no one grows it. According to Zhang Xiu''s memory, tobacco should be the first plant to appear in South America. But now, it has already appeared in Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t pursue any reason.


    It is reasonable to appear.


    As long as there is, it is reasonable. There is no need to go to the bottom.


    Shamocco scratched his head, looked shocked, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the first time you have seen this thing. But I think your technique seems to be more powerful than translation. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it''s instinctive, I guess."


    Shamoko''s heart is murmuring.


    Instinct!


    Why doesn''t he have that instinct?


    Shamocco stepped forward and continued, "Your Majesty, you have never smoked this thing. Wait a minute, I''ll roll it up for you, then press it into the bamboo tube, and then you can suck it through the bamboo tube. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu of later generations is an old smoker. She not only smoked cigarettes, but also smoked tobacco leaves. Compared with filter cigarettes, leaf tobacco is a real choking nose, which many people are not used to, but the strength is very comfortable.


    The strength of the tobacco leaves in front of us is not as strong as that of later generations.


    After all, the processing program is not enough.


    Zhang Xiu fumbled for the tobacco leaves in her hand and said, "shamoko, is there any tobacco?"


    "Yes, yes!"


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s question, Sha Moke took out two pieces of tobacco leaves from his sleeve, handed them to Zhang Xiu, and said, "the translator presented a box of good things, but I only brought this. Your majesty, if you need more, I''ll go back and get some for you. "


    "Enough."


    Zhang Xiu replied with a smile.


    He put three pieces of tobacco together. Stretch the three pieces of tobacco leaves well, and rub the tobacco leaves in no hurry, so that the three pieces of tobacco leaves are soft and not stiff.


    Then, Zhang Xiu slowly rolled up the tobacco leaves into a cylinder.However, the two ends of this cylinder are irregular.


    Zhang Xiu took out a dagger and carefully trimmed the two ends of the tobacco leaf to make the cigarette about 10 cm long and thumb thick. Such a cigarette, has completely changed, very neat, more artistic.


    Shamoko blinked in his eyes. He was very surprised.


    His heart was murmuring.


    GUI Cai believes that this is the first time I met Zhang Xiu. If it is the first time I met Zhang Xiu, I can''t be so familiar with her. Moreover, Zhang Xiu''s technique is superior to that of the translator. I don''t know how many times.


    The problem is that shamoko also knows Zhang Xiu and knows that Zhang Xiu has never met her before. But what Zhang Xiu shows is amazing. That''s why shamoko thinks the world is going crazy.


    Shamoko''s only explanation.


    It can only be that Zhang Xiu is a natural person, a genius.


    To be so familiar.


    Zhang Xiu rolled the cigarette, but did not rush to ignite it. Instead, she took out a slip of rice paper and tied it to one end of the cigarette. When this line of rice paper was wrapped, the whole cigarette changed again.


    A little rice paper is the finishing touch.


    The grade of the whole cigarette has changed again, which can''t be amazing.


    Shamoke was stunned. He was originally a tobacco supplier. He should explain to Zhang Xiu how to use it. But now, it has changed, Zhang Xiu''s every move, make shamoke a Leng a Leng, become Zhang Xiu in dazzle technology.


    Zhang Xiu''s forefinger and middle finger clamped the cigarette, which made shamoke stare.


    It''s amazing.


    As a smoker, shamoko used to smoke with his mouth close to the bamboo tube. He was rude and had no aesthetic feeling. It felt like a rude man spoiling the little lady, but Zhang Xiu''s action gave shamoko a sense of supremacy and artistry.


    Shamoko''s heart itches.


    I wish I had a cigarette, and I had to smoke like Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu lit it, she took a puff. A strong smell of smoke, hovering in the mouth, that slightly spicy feeling, aftertaste in the mouth and nose, make Zhang Xiu''s spirit shock, incomparable comfortable.


    Seeing this, shamoko said hastily, "Your Majesty, this smoke has to be spit out. It can''t be left in your body."


    Zhang Xiu smile, did not answer.


    The next moment, Zhang Xiu nose in two fog, followed by, Zhang Xiu mouth a vomit, a smoke ring from Zhang Xiu flying out of the air, hovering in the air for a while before dispersing.


    "Cool!"


    Zhang Xiu almost groaned with emotion.


    The feeling of inhaling cigarettes is different, which makes people have extraordinary enjoyment.


    Shamoko''s face was full of helplessness. He was destructed opium at this moment, because he came to sell tobacco to Zhang embroidery, hoping to show his treasures to Zhang embroidery.


    Zhang Xiu is even better at it.


    Every move has a sense of beauty and art, especially the scene of Zhang Xiu finally spitting out the smoke ring, which shocked shamoko incomparably. He couldn''t wait to say: "Your Majesty, you must teach me how to smoke. It''s amazing. It''s amazing. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "this is not difficult."


    Shamoko said: "it may not be difficult for your majesty, but it is quite difficult for me. Your majesty, you must teach it to me. You must tell me how you did it. "


    Zhang Xiu did not hide, said some details of smoking.


    After talking about these things, shamoko suddenly realized and said with emotion: "Your Majesty is really powerful. Only when you can analyze the twists and turns, that is your majesty, can you analyze them thoroughly. I see. I see. "


    According to Zhang Xiu, he can''t wait to make a cigarette again.

 Chapter 1292

    In his heart, he could not wait to go back, so he took the initiative to say goodbye: "Your Majesty, I have something to do now, so I will go back first. After all, the military is very busy, so we can''t get away from it. "


    "Are you busy in the military?"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    Shamoke was teased by Zhang Xiu, and his face was quite unnatural. Although he was in charge of the army, he was mainly a fierce general in the battlefield. Most of the time, shamoko was handed over to the civil servants around him, and he rarely intervened.


    Zhang Xiu joked: "you are addicted to smoking. You should go back to smoke."


    Shamoko rubbed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I''m not a smoker. It''s just that your Majesty''s action just now is really natural and unrestrained. Even if I saw it, I couldn''t help feeling broken. So I want to follow suit. "


    He was really excited.


    I want to have a try.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "if you want to have a try, I won''t stop you. But when you go back, call me the interpreter who sent you the tobacco. This man is of great use to me. "


    "Here it is


    Shamoko answered and left in a hurry.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the departure of shamoko, mouth with a smile, more looking forward to.


    Opportunity!


    Now that he finds tobacco, it''s his chance.


    The existence of tobacco is tantamount to opening up another market. As a smoker, if there is no tobacco, it is like the lack of soul, so he is ready to use tobacco to re open up an industry.


    Zhang Xiu sat quietly, waiting quietly.


    In his mind, he is already telling the operation, thinking about how to use tobacco. The formation of an industry can not be completed overnight, nor can it be decided in a short time. It involves all aspects.


    So Zhang Xiu should think it over carefully.


    It wasn''t long before an attendant came in. It was reported that the translator had come. Zhang Xiu let people in. Soon, a middle-aged man with fat and short stature entered.


    His name is Dong Yan, a businessman.


    He was mainly a business man who traveled between Kushan, the western regions and the Central Plains. The army needed a translator, so Dong Yan went to the army and became a translator, who was specially responsible for communicating with Kushan and the Qin army.


    Dong Yan thought that shamocco was relatively simple, and ordinary people might not be willing to accept things like tobacco, so he paid a visit with tobacco leaves and successfully joined shamocco''s line.


    It''s just that Dong Yan didn''t expect that the tobacco leaves he gave to shamoke had been transferred to Zhang Xiu''s desk by shamoke''s hand, and he also came into Zhang Xiu''s sight.


    At this moment, Dong Yan felt uneasy.


    After Dong Yan stood still, he bowed almost 90 degrees and said, "Cao min Dong Yan, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t be too polite!"


    Dong Yan just stood up, his face was still uneasy. He knew that the emperor summoned him for the sake of tobacco. He was worried that he would send tobacco to shamoko and be disposed of by the emperor, so his eyes were wavering and his heart was terrified.


    Zhang Xiu noticed Dong Yan''s manner and said with a smile, "I''m looking for you, not for you to ask for a crime."


    Whoo!


    Dong Yanchang let out a breath.


    At least it''s not a question of guilt.


    At this moment, Dong Yan felt relieved. He had a smile on his face and said, "I don''t know if your majesty is calling. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "what did you do before you entered the army as a translator?"


    Dong Yan said: "report back to your majesty, before entering the army, the grass people have been doing business. Mainly engaged in silk, fur, and tea business. Because they travel between the Central Plains, the western regions and Kushan, the grassroots know much about Kushan. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded her head and stopped beating around the bush. "Where did you get the tobacco?" she said in a deep voice


    Dong Yan said truthfully: "report to your majesty that the tobacco was purchased from an old farmer. There are such tobacco leaves in Wulei City, which are planted by a group of old farmers. However, the quantity is not much. After all, few people smoke. Even grass-roots people are not used to it. But some old farmers like it


    Zhang Xiu said, "then, how do you think of sending tobacco to shamoko?"


    Dong Yan, with a sudden heart, replied, "tell your majesty, the reason why the grassroots choose to give away tobacco leaves. First, it''s because this gift of tobacco leaves is different from giving money and treasures. It''s not a bribe or a precious thing. "


    "Second, it is not vulgar. After all, wine delivery is too vulgar, it has no influence, and it is difficult to get the favor of general shamoko, so I chose a different gift. "


    "Third, the tobacco leaves are the most favorite for some people who like to drink spirits. Once you really like it, you really like it. "


    Dong Yan said three points in succession, and finally said: "of course, there is the most important point. As a matter of fact, tobacco leaves were given not only to general shamoko, but also to other generals. Although the gift is light, it can make an impression. But in the end, only general shamoko fell in love with tobacco. "Zhang Xiu said, "you are good at dancing with long sleeves."


    Dong Yan saw Zhang Xiu''s tone, there is no anger, there is no harsh, heart is a sigh of relief. If Zhang Xiu is really angry, then things will not be easy to do.


    Dong Yan said: "Your Majesty has killed the grassroots, but as a businessman, if you want to have a foothold, you have to make a lot of connections and good connections. I don''t want to get anything in return. I just want to have one more friend and one less enemy. In this way, business will go smoothly. "


    Zhang Xiu praised Dong Yan''s way of life.


    This is true of business.


    It is not only a means of management, but also a way of life. To a certain extent, business also depends on being a person. Because in the thousands of years of Chinese history, business is more about human relations than business operation.


    As soon as Zhang Xiuhua Feng turned around, he went straight to the point and said, "I''ve come to you today just for the sake of tobacco. Now that you know the tobacco growers, you should lead the way. You take me to visit the tobacco growers. "


    "Here it is


    Dong Yan immediately responded.


    After a pause, Dong Yancai suggested: "Your Majesty, I just want to see the old farmers who grow tobacco. Moreover, the old farmer is in the southwest of Wulei City, about 20 miles away from Wulei city. Many places are still mountain roads. Do you want to arrange for someone to go to the notice. Your majesty will be there in person. I''m afraid there will be a delay. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and replied, "you lead the way. I''ll go there myself."


    Seeing this, Dong Yan stopped persuading.


    Zhang Xiu has a decision, he only needs to implement it, and he has talked it over. Under such a premise, he only needs to act according to Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Zhang Xiu gave an order and told Xun Yu about his departure. She took Wang Yue, a group of royal guards and Dong Yan to go twenty miles away.


    It''s a ride. Such a journey, in the case of riding, did not take long. Finally, it came to the place mentioned by Dong Yan.


    This area is one after another of hills.


    The mountain is not high.


    And one after another on the hillside, lush, a green.


    Dong Yan and Zhang Xiu soon came to the house where the old farmer lived. This house is a simple mud house, covered with thatch to keep out the wind and rain, surrounded by low fences.


    Dong Yan immediately introduced the situation of the old farmer to Zhang Xiu.


    The old farmer''s name is sangandi.


    The most common people, though not slaves, are also the most common pariah. In front of the Brahman castes, they can''t even lift their heads. Now, his wife is 50 years old. Originally, sangandi had three sons and two daughters, but the three sons died in the hands of aristocrats. After the daughter married out, she did not live many years.


    Today''s sangandi is alone.


    He lives by himself.


    After seeing sangandi, Dong Yan immediately went forward to say hello and said, "old man, I''m here again."


    Although sangandi has gone through many vicissitudes, and even now the evening is bleak, he is an optimistic master. With a smile on his face, he said, "Mr. Dong, why are you here. Would you like to buy some tobacco from me. The old man tells you that you can''t pay a high price for this purchase. "


    After a pause, sangandi said: "the last time you bought tobacco, you paid a high price. Although the old man is alone, he can''t take advantage of you. If you''re still like this, I won''t sell you tobacco next time. "

 Chapter 1293

    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    Unexpectedly, Dong Yan was a kind-hearted man. Seeing that sangandi''s situation was not so good, he took the initiative to pay a high price.


    Zhang Xiu appreciated this.


    Facing sangandi, Dong Yan had a pure smile and said, "don''t say that, old man. All the tobacco leaves you have here are the best, and none of them is inferior. It''s normal to pay a high price. "


    After a pause, Dong Yan said, "old man, this one beside me is a noble man. He also has some needs and problems for tobacco, you can tell me


    "Noble man?"


    When sangandi heard this, he passed a touch of resentment in his eyes and hummed: "Mr. Dong, if you want to buy tobacco leaves, the old man has no second words. But I''m afraid this noble man can''t use such cheap goods as tobacco leaves. And there''s nothing to say. "


    Dong Yan blinked.


    Suddenly, he understood.


    It was because he said the word "noble" that made sangandi unhappy. Sangandi''s three sons, I was killed by the nobles of Wulei City, so I was very angry with the nobles of Wulei city. As soon as he heard the identity of a noble man, he was angry with Zhang Xiu, so he didn''t want to say anything more.


    With a smile still on his face, Dong Yan explained, "old man, you misunderstood this noble man. It''s not the same as the Brahmins


    Sanggan said: "what''s different is the same. These nobles are the same. "


    Dong Yan said: "this noble man is different. He comes from the Far East and belongs to the state of Qin. Not only that, the army led by this noble man has captured Wulei city. All the nobles in Wulei City, including those of Brahman caste, are dead and have been killed. There are no nobles in the whole city of no thunder. "


    "Ah


    When sangandi heard it, he exclaimed.


    He looked unbelievable and said, "well, I''m afraid not. The noble of Brahman caste is very powerful. Can this noble man solve this problem? "


    Dong Yan explained: "naturally, it can be solved. Moreover, this noble man has issued a decree to abolish nobles and slaves. Now in Wulei City, it is impossible to have any more Brahman nobles."


    "Good, good, good!"


    When sangandi heard this, his turbid eyes were filled with tears.


    He was very excited.


    My heart is full of joy.


    Sangandi''s three sons all died in the hands of Brahman nobles. Now all Brahman nobles have been killed. Sangandi''s son''s hatred, but also indirectly revenge.


    So sangandi is full of gratitude to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu has been listening to Dong Yan''s words. He sighs when he sees sangandi''s expression.


    This is kusana.


    Even under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty, the country was peaceful and the people were safe, but there were always dark places. But in Kushan, there are many aristocrats who eat people and don''t spit bones. The caste system of Kushan erodes the blood of the Kushan people.


    With a plop, sangandi knelt down in front of Zhang Xiu, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and said: "thank you very much. You killed the thousand sword killers in Wulei city. Sangandi is very grateful for your kindness. Thank you very much."


    Zhang Xiu did not revenge for sangandi, but did things according to his ideas. She had to get rid of the nobility of Wulei city.


    But sangandi didn''t think so.


    When the Brahman nobles were killed, sangandi thought that his great revenge was avenged and he was extremely happy. Even if Zhang Xiu didn''t take revenge on his son, sangandi thought that Zhang Xiu must be grateful for it.


    Zhang Xiu looks at sanggandhi with tears in her eyes and sighs in her heart.


    The old man is a poor man.


    Zhang Xiu held out her hand, lifted up sangandi, and said, "old man, the dead are gone. The dead have been dead for a long time. I think you are an optimistic and cheerful person, so now, you still have to live a good life. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Sangandi was crying, but he nodded busily.


    Even though he is optimistic day by day on the surface, it really involves his own son. The deep feelings in his heart burst at this moment, making him unable to control his emotions.


    Zhang Xiu did not disturb sangandi''s crying.


    It''s human nature.


    He could understand sangandi''s emotions, so he let sangandi vent his inner emotions.


    After half a sound, sangandi stopped crying.


    Although he is an old man who has never seen the world, he also knows that Dong Yan is coming with Zhang Xiu, so there must be something wrong. Sanggandhi choked twice, wiped away the tears in his eyes, and said, "I''m so glad you''re here today, but what''s the matter. Let me know if you have anything. As long as you can do it, you will do your best. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "don''t worry, I''m just asking about tobacco.""May I ask you," said sangandi


    Zhang Xiu said, "how many people grow the tobacco leaves around here? What''s the yield of this tobacco. "


    Sanggandhi replied: "to you, there are not many people planting tobacco around here. In fact, there are only about ten families. Moreover, the yield of tobacco is actually very low. After all, the smell of the tobacco leaves is rather pungent, and ordinary people can''t bear it. "


    After a pause, sangandi said again: "so it''s the old men like us who grow some by themselves and then use them by themselves. Of course, some people come to buy it, such as Mr. Dong. However, they are all small, and not many people buy them. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu frowned.


    The yield of tobacco is too low.


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "if you want to plant in large quantities, can you do it?"


    "No problem!"


    Sanggan nodded, but said: "but it''s useless to plant in large quantities. After all, there are very few people who buy tobacco. Dear man, do you want to buy in large quantities? "


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Sangandilian said: "you should not buy tobacco in large quantities. It''s not worth it. For someone else, I agree directly. Because someone buys it, I can make money. "


    "But the noble man killed the nobles in Wulei City, and he was a great benefactor to the little old man."


    "So I have to advise you."


    "Tobacco is very pungent. If you really want to sell it, the sales volume is low, and there are not many people using it."


    Sangandi said: "noble man, this kind of business is hard to last. So you need some free gifts. If you want to buy, I advise you not to intervene. "


    After a pause, sangandi looked at Dong Yan and said, "Mr. Dong, please persuade this gentleman. Those who like tobacco like it. But it''s impossible to sell it on a large scale. "


    Dong Yan turned to look at Zhang Xiu and immediately reported it.


    Zhang Xiu explained: "tobacco is a good thing, although there are not many audiences today. But after some production, it can be widely promoted, so there is no problem. Old man, I have my own consideration. Now, I need to buy in large quantities. "


    Sangandi heard that he was helpless.


    Because his persuasion is useless.


    Sangandi thought about it and said again, "dear, do you really want to buy in large quantities? Such a thing, however, requires a lot of money. Have you thought about it? "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "old man, I am the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. I have a lot of money. It''s unnecessary for you to worry about wasting a lot of money. What''s more, I have a secret recipe for making tobacco leaves, so the sales volume is not a problem, so you don''t have to worry about it. "


    When Dong Yan wanted to report it, he asked Zhang Xiu if he could tell her the identity of the emperor. After all, just now, Zhang Xiu said her identity directly. Previously, when Dong Yan reported it, he hid Zhang Xiu''s identity, saying only that he was a noble man.


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    After Dong Yan truthfully reported it, sangandi was surprised. Unexpectedly, it was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    This is the nobleman among the noblemen.


    He couldn''t help but kneel down on the ground with a plop, kowtow to Zhang Xiu and said, "little old man, I don''t know it''s his majesty. If you offend me, please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what do you offend? There is no place to offend. Old people, get up and talk."


    Sangandi stood up, more excited.


    Because the man in front of him was the emperor of the great Qin, and the emperor of the great Qin took revenge for him.

 Chapter 1294

    Sangandi''s inner emotion is extremely agitated, which is hard to describe in words. For ordinary people like sanggandhi, they are always at home and seldom see people outside.


    The leaders of a small town, here in sangandi, are all great people.


    If you are a Brahman aristocrat, it will be hard to look up to all your life.


    But now, I saw Zhang Xiu.


    I met the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    Such a situation made sangandi''s heart excited, his body trembled slightly, even said: "Your Majesty, I didn''t expect you to come in person. Your majesty, to tell you the truth, few people can get used to it. Your majesty is a good man. I can''t hurt you and let you lose money in vain. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "old man, I just said that I have a secret recipe for making tobacco. After treatment, the cigarettes made from the tobacco leaves will have different tastes. So you don''t have to worry. What I am worried about is whether it can be planted on a large scale. "


    Sangandi thought in his heart, the emperor must be considerate. He stood in his own perspective and considered for the emperor, but in fact, he did not have the emperor''s vision.


    Think of here, sangandi suddenly enlightened.


    Sangandi stopped persuading and said, "Your Majesty is wise. Please rest assured that this tobacco leaf can be planted on a large scale. In particular, the climate and mountains here are very suitable for planting tobacco. You see, there are many hillsides around here. They are sunny and can be planted on a large scale. "


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiulian said two good words with a smile on her face.


    It can be planted on a large scale, which means that the production of tobacco can be expanded to the largest extent.


    Zhang Xiu said: "old man, it''s just spring, so it''s time to plant tobacco."


    "Yes


    Sangandi nodded.


    After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu asked, "how many people are there in your neighborhood who grow tobacco leaves? Can you call them together?"


    Sanggan said: "report back to your majesty. In less than half an hour, all of you can be called together. After all, many people live far away, so it will take some time to get back and forth notice. "


    Zhang xiudao: "that''s troublesome for you, but you''re not very well. Can you go to inform me?"


    "No problem!"


    Sanggandhi patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty, you don''t see that the little old man''s back is rickety and his body is old. But this old bone is still very strong. It''s very easy to climb the slope. And in a place like this, it''s not a problem for a young man to walk a hundred miles a day. "


    He had a big smile on his face.


    Can help Zhang Xiu, sanggandhi heartfelt joy.


    Zhang xiudao said: "that''s hard work for the elderly. This time, you have to go around and make a notice."


    Sangandi shook his hand like a rattle and said, "Your Majesty, don''t say that. I''m sorry. You are my great benefactor. I should do something for you. You wait. I''ll inform you right away


    Zhang xiudao: "hard work for the elderly."


    Sangandi rolled up his sleeves and quickly left the house to inform the people in all directions.


    Zhang Xiu sat down outside sangandi''s house, but his eyes fell on Dong Yan and said in a deep voice: "Dong Yan, you were originally in business. Now, he has entered the army and become an interpreter in the army. What are your plans after this war? "


    Dong Yan''s mind turns and uses his brain quickly, pondering the intention of Zhang Xiu''s inquiry.


    It seems that


    As soon as Dong Yan thought of the possibility, he was excited.


    After careful consideration in his heart, he said: "Your Majesty, now the army is in Kushan. If we want to sweep the whole Kushan, we must also need translation. So now, I plan to stay in the army as a translator. After all, business is not a long-term way. It''s a long-term way to get into the army and get a job. "


    He didn''t say anything in an implicit way, but he just said what he thought.


    This is what he really thinks.


    Although businessmen can earn money in business, not everyone can achieve the level of LV Buwei and become the Prime Minister of a country from a businessman. Most businessmen are just businessmen.


    Such is the case with scholars, peasants, industry and commerce.


    So now, after entering the army, Dong Yan hopes to stay.


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "you want to get an official position in the army. Apart from being a translator now, what else are you good at? We should know that in the army, we should be able to kill the enemy and cut the generals on the battlefield, or be able to plan and deal with military affairs. When attacking Kushan, because you are proficient in the languages of both sides and can be used as a translator, you may find it difficult later. "


    Brush!


    Dong Yan''s heart sank.


    According to Zhang Xiu, he is not competent either as a general or as a logistics manager.


    In fact, it is.What Dong Yan has experienced in his life is all about business. As for the others, he had no contact at all. He doesn''t have enough experience to be an official in the army or to govern local areas.


    It''s just that Dong Yan is confused.


    As the emperor of a country, Zhang Xiu''s words and deeds must have deep meaning. It is impossible to ask questions so casually. Only in Dong Yan''s heart, he could not guess Zhang Xiu''s plan.


    With patience, Dong Yan said, "what your majesty said is that I am not good at fighting in the battlefield or staying in the rear. After all, I have never been in touch with him. However, I will try to get to know more about it. Not really. It''s good to be a assistant official. "


    Assistant officials are some of the chores.


    Even the assistant official, in Dong Yan''s opinion, was better than him as a businessman.


    Zhang Xiu chuckles. Unexpectedly, Dong Yan is determined to become an official. For Zhang Xiu, this is not a bad thing. It is a good thing that a person has goals and ambitions.


    Zhang Xiu is not going around in circles either. She says with a smile, "here I am, there is a way for you to choose."


    Dong Yan''s heart, excited, even busy way: "please show your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "under the rule of Daqin, there are Daqin bank, Daqin paper industry and Daqin coal industry. Daqin paper industry is responsible for the sale of paper, and Daqin coal industry is responsible for the production and sale of coal mines. Now the tobacco, though for the time being, does not have the possibility of promotion. But after the production of tobacco, tobacco will be popular all over the world. I''m going to set up Daqin tobacco industry alone. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "you are the first one to buy tobacco for sale, and you are familiar with the situation of Wulei city and the situation of this place. So I''m going to give you a chance to have a try. Would you like to


    Dong Yan''s breath was suddenly rapid.


    The chest is up and down.


    Previously, he said what he thought in his heart. He wanted to be an official in the army. Even if he couldn''t, it was good to be a assistant official. But according to Zhang Xiu''s standard, he is not suitable.


    When Dong Yan was quite depressed, Zhang Xiu suddenly threw out a better opportunity for him to be specially responsible for the production of tobacco. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.


    As a businessman who traveled between Central Plains, western regions and Kushan, Dong Yan knew the situation of Daqin, and knew that Daqin had Daqin paper industry and Daqin coal industry. They were all businesses, but they were all big businesses of Daqin.


    Now he wants to establish Daqin tobacco industry, which is obviously equivalent to Daqin coal industry and Daqin paper industry.


    Once he''s done, he''s on his way.


    This is an opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu stares at Dong Yan, who is a little short of breath. She smiles and says, "Dong Yan, have you considered it clearly?"


    Dong Yan recovered in a moment.


    With a plop, he knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to take charge of Daqin tobacco industry. Your majesty, please rest assured that I will handle this matter properly. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s not only to deal with things properly. More importantly, the existence of tobacco industry in Daqin must open a new road to finance. This is the future of Daqin tobacco industry, which must be far beyond Daqin paper industry and Daqin coal industry. "


    Dong Yan was shocked.


    In fact, he doesn''t have many concepts about tobacco. After all, although the tobacco can be smoked, in fact, there are not many people who really smoke nowadays. He really did not expect that the picking and selling of tobacco leaves could surpass that of Daqin paper.


    But Dong Yan didn''t think about it. Now he just needs to go down step by step and do his best every step. In this way, he is worthy of his heart and Zhang Xiu''s trust.


    Zhang Xiu is in charge of tobacco with Dong Yan and talks about tobacco. Now there is just time, so Zhang Xiu has explained all the processes from planting tobacco leaves to making cigarettes and selling cigarettes.


    Zhang Xiu can only say what she knows about cigarettes.


    On the one hand, he said, on the other hand, he added.


    This half-hour time, has been Zhang Xiu said, Dong Yan is responsible for writing down.


    The more Dong Yan listened, the more shocked he felt, because he could be sure that Zhang Xiu was in contact with tobacco for the first time. However, what Zhang Xiu elaborated is extremely clear, and the logic is more meticulous. It can''t be seen that she has just contacted.


    This surprised Dong Yan even more.


    At this moment, a burst of footwork and noisy comments came from not far away. See Sangxiu, a group of people have come back.


    At a glance, there are at least a hundred people.


    There are old and young people, as well as some women and children. People in the neighborhood must have come.


    Sangandi was at the front, his face red and his eyes bright. As he walked, he introduced Zhang Xiu. When sangandi with people close, even busy way: "grass people sangandi, see the emperor."


    The rest of you, salute with sangandi.


    I''ll see you all.


    It''s all about kneeling.


    But Zhang Xiu waved her hand to stop her and said, "folks, don''t salute. Come on, sit around here. "Everyone said thanks and took their seats.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "my intention, I believe sangandi, has been made clear. Now I need to buy this tobacco in large quantities. Of course, the price of this purchase is certainly higher than the price of your sales, and it will not treat you badly. I call you here to ask you whether you are willing to plant tobacco in large quantities? "

 Chapter 1295

    When a group of farmers heard Zhang Xiu''s words, no one spoke. Instead, their eyes fell on sanggandhi. On the way here, they had already agreed that sangandi would be responsible for their demands.


    After all, sangandi is more familiar with Zhang Xiu.


    Moreover, sangandi himself has been living here for decades, and people around him have known each other for decades. So people believe sangandi and are willing to let sangandi negotiate.


    Sangandi said: "Your Majesty, the people around here are willing to plant tobacco in large quantities. But the problem is, once a large number of planting, it is impossible to plant other food. If you wait until it''s collected, you don''t want it. Or, you have to bargain and suppress the price. At that time, the villagers will be dumb and eat Coptis. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    In the laughter, it was all relaxed.


    Seeing Zhang Xiu''s smile, sangandi scratched his head and said, "what is your majesty laughing at?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I laugh at your worries. In fact, there is no possibility at all. Don''t say that you grow tobacco. Even if you plant tobacco with more than 100 people and 1000 people, I can buy them all. "


    "I can tell you clearly that the government needs more tobacco. This year, it''s just the beginning. Next year, it will be planted in large quantities. "


    "And at the beginning of this year, except for the tobacco you planted. I will also arrange for people to select land and hire people to plant tobacco, so as to expand the output of tobacco. "


    "Your worry is totally unnecessary."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "what you have to worry about is actually very simple, that is, whether the tobacco planted by yourself can be qualified and whether it is a fine product. If the quality is too poor, I will buy it, but the price will definitely be depressed. As long as it''s top-quality tobacco, I will buy as many as I have. "


    Sanggan nodded. He believed Zhang Xiu''s words. He turned to the villagers behind him and said, "old brothers and sisters, I believe your Majesty''s words. His majesty is different from the Brahman nobles. He takes care of us. Therefore, I believe the emperor''s words, I am ready to plant tobacco in large quantities. As for you, those who are willing will follow, and I will not demand those who are unwilling. "


    The crowd was lost in thought.


    After all, it involves a year''s livelihood, which is not a trivial matter.


    Once all the tobacco leaves are planted, but they are not sold in the end, they will lose a lot.


    Many people also believe in sangandi.


    After all, they all believed in sangandi''s conduct.


    Zhang yinxiu, a group of villagers who hesitated to dry the tobacco leaves, said with a smile. Now, as many as you have, I will buy. I''m here in sangandi. If you have tobacco, you can take it. "


    "Seriously?"


    In the crowd, some people got excited and asked, "Your Majesty, what''s the purchase price?"


    Zhang Xiu''s face, with a soft smile, was not impatient and said: "I will give you a high price for the purchase price. Now the selling price of tobacco is low. I''ll double it for you. "


    WOW!!


    All the people were excited.


    All eyes are full of joy.


    You know, they don''t spend much money growing tobacco. Even at the current market price, there is a profit. But now, Zhang Xiu doubled the price for them, which is an excellent price for them and can earn a lot.


    One by one, they were very excited.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "villagers, this is just the beginning. After you plant tobacco this year, you will surely get more. So folks, this is your chance. "


    When people heard this, they thought about it.


    It''s really profitable. If you can sell it, you can make a lot of money. It''s not to say that you can be rich. But it''s not a problem to support your family.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "next, Dong Yan will be responsible for everything about tobacco. Whether it''s planting and seedling raising, or drying and selling, or other aspects, you can find Dong Yan. "


    Dong Yan immediately stood up and said with a smile, "I will always be in Wulei city. Villagers can come to me if they have something to do."


    Now Dong Yan is in charge of Daqin tobacco industry.


    Since he is in charge, he will take care of everything. Because to cultivate this industry and be responsible for handling things well, he has to participate in all aspects to ensure the smooth progress of things.


    When all the people were at ease, they got up and left, and then they were ready to go back and send their tobacco leaves.


    Sangandi also came home and took out all his stored tobacco leaves. He said, "Your Majesty, I''ll give you all my tobacco leaves. No money, give it all away. His majesty killed the Brahman nobles and avenged the little old man''s family. So these tobacco leaves are in return for your majesty. "


    But Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "one yard to one yard, this thing can''t be confused. What''s more, I didn''t kill the nobles in Wulei city to avenge you. In fact, I wanted to abolish the system. So give money to those who deserve it. "However, sangandi was unwilling to accept the money.


    But Zhang Xiu shook her head.


    He was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty and could not take advantage of sanggandhi. In particular, it is not easy for sanggandhi to live alone, and it is impossible for Zhang Xiu not to give money.


    Zhang Xiu directly said to give money, set the tone, then diverged from the topic, and sang Gandhi talking about tobacco.


    Half an hour later, the surrounding villagers came.


    One by one, they were carrying the burden, and all the baskets were filled with dried tobacco leaves. These tobacco leaves are stored in various households. Although the amount is not large, it is also quite a lot.


    When everyone arrived, Zhang Xiu looked at the baskets of tobacco leaves, thought about it and said, "I came out with Dong Yan, and I didn''t have any money with me. Why don''t you send the villagers to Wulei city. Of course, if you choose Wulei city from here, I will pay you. What do you think? "


    Sangandilian said hastily: "Your Majesty, we have to pick out the items when we go to sell. We should send it to Wulei City, so you don''t have to pay any more. Your majesty has doubled the price of the purchase, which is the end of his duty. We can no longer take advantage of your majesty. "


    The rest echoed.


    Everyone agrees, because they are used to walking like this.


    It''s not a big problem.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and said, "let''s go. It takes time to come back. If you delay more time, I''m afraid it will be dark when you come back. So now, we still have to seize the time. "


    All the people agreed.


    One by one, carrying the burden, they quickly followed Zhang Xiu and Dong Yan and went to the direction of Wulei city. When they arrived at Wulei City, they went straight to the city Lord''s mansion. Zhang Xiu arranged for people to settle all the tobacco money directly.


    One by one, the people who got the money were very happy.


    For the common people, they bow their hands to each other and then leave.


    Sangandi left happily, too.


    When the crowd dispersed, Zhang Xiu looked at Dong Yan and said, "Dong Yan, you can collect more tobacco like this. There should be more in Wulei city. You can take back more. As for the location of Daqin tobacco industry, you can directly report it after selecting it. All the money you need will be directly registered in a book and sent to me. "


    "I understand


    Dong Yan nodded solemnly.


    Previously in sangandi''s home, he and Zhang Xiu talked a lot about how to do tobacco, he had a general direction in his heart. In particular, he has his own judgment on a business direction of Daqin tobacco industry.


    Dong Yan solemnly said: "Your Majesty, about the promotion of tobacco industry in Daqin. I''m afraid I can''t just rely on humble position. So when cigarettes are made, you need your majesty to take the lead. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this matter son, I am duty bound."


    Dong Yan said, "thank you, your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, Dong Yan turned around and stepped down to arrange the next thing. To maintain Daqin tobacco industry and get on the right track is not a matter of one day. It will consume countless energy, so it needs Dong Yan''s attention.

 Chapter 1296

    Dong Yan began to be busy with the establishment of Daqin tobacco industry. After all, many things need to be dealt with by himself. Even though he was tired and laborious, Dong Yan enjoyed it from beginning to end, because it was all about running.


    Before that, Dong Yan was a military translator.


    If he wants to climb up, he has to curry favor with others and look at the faces of countless people. Up to now, Dong Yan has to look at people''s faces. He only needs to do his own thing well.


    He is different from the past.


    When Dong Yan was busy, Zhang Xiu was not idle. She took out a pen and paper and wrote about the production of cigarettes and the sale of cigarettes. This is a big project.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was time to issue a new decree. The city master''s office issued an imperial edict to abolish the nobles and slaves in Wulei city. All the people in Wulei city were equal, and there was no distinction between nobles and pariahs.


    The promulgation of this decree immediately set off a huge wave.


    Even if Zhang Xiu had killed all the nobles before, there was no clear imperial edict. In addition to this edict, it should be abolished. This is the biggest encouragement for the people of Wulei City, and countless people are jubilant.


    In particular, all the nobles in Wulei city were killed. Even if Zhang Xiu issued an edict, no one dared to say anything.


    This decree will be carried out in Wulei city.


    Everything went well.


    However, in the southwest of Wulei City, this is blue city.


    The scale of this city is larger than that of Wulei City, and so is the jurisdiction.


    The city leader of Lam''s city was named mahabhara. He was born in Brahman caste and was nearly 50 years old. Although he began to grow old, he had rich experience. The city of Lanchester, which he was in charge of, had nearly 150000 troops.


    In the Lord''s mansion.


    Mahabharata sits on the main seat of the hall, and Jimu sits on the left side below.


    Mahabharata said, "I just got the news from Wulei city. All Brahman nobles in Wulei city are killed, and there will be no nobles in Wulei city. "


    Ji Mu said: "Lord of the city, the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are very powerful. Now Zhang Xiu takes Wulei city and kills the nobles of Wulei city by thunder. The city of Lanshi is about to face the fire of war. "


    Mahabhara rubbed his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "my Lord, I want to know Zhang Xiu for a while. This man can kill vesuvativa and lead to the Royal infighting in Peshawar city. Such a great Qin emperor is a hero. I have a strong army in LAN''s city, so I want to try the quality of Zhang''s embroidery. "


    For Zhang Xiu, mahabhara is not afraid.


    He has the strength to fight.


    Ji Mu reminded: "if the city master wants to fight Zhang Xiu, there is no problem. However, we should be cautious. Zhang Xiu''s military tactics are also quite powerful. "


    Mahabharata said, "it''s just like this that we have to fight against Zhang Xiu."


    When Ji Mu heard the speech, he was also looking forward to it. Before that, he was defeated in Wulei City, and his heart was extremely unwilling to revenge. Mahabhara was willing to fight Zhang Xiu, and Jimu was happy to see it.


    Ji Mu thought about it and said, "if you want to do something good, you must first sharpen your tools. Now that you have foreseen that Zhang Xiu will go south. Next, we should arrange sentinels to inquire for information early to ensure that the information is well-informed. "


    Mahabhara said, "what Ji Mu said is true."


    Immediately, mahabhara arranged.


    They put forward their own opinions on dealing with Zhang Xiu and discussed the first world war with her.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, the voice of a soldier came from outside the hall. A soldier quickly entered, stood beside mahabhara and said, "Lord, there is news from the northern city of no thunder."


    Mahabhara said, "present it!"


    The soldier took out the letter and handed it to mahabhara.


    After mahabhara saw it, he looked surprised. He waved his hand and asked the soldiers to step down.


    Mahabharata said, "my dear brother Jimu, I have just received the news from the northern city of no thunder. Zhang Xiu abolished nobles and slaves in Wulei city and declared that everyone was equal, and there was no difference between the noble and the humble. There are no slaves or nobles in today''s no thunder city. "


    "Hiss!"


    Ji Mu took a deep breath and said: "Zhang Xiu is so bold that she dares to abolish nobles and slaves. Such a move is tantamount to prying the foundation of the Kushan class. When the news comes out, it will also set off huge waves, and the whole Kushan will be shocked. "


    Mahabhara said: "Zhang Xiu is self righteous. He thinks that abolishing nobles and slaves will win the hearts of the people. In fact, the abolition of slaves and nobles in Kushan is tantamount to digging one''s own grave. Today, Zhang Xiu is the enemy of all people. This time, he will definitely lose. "


    Ji Mu nodded his head and said, "Zhang Xiu is really wrong."


    Mahabhara said, "we can take this opportunity to unite with the nobles of the city of Ramsey and ask them to send troops to help. Originally, our military strength was not weak. Now Zhang Xiu killed the nobles in Wulei City, and even abolished them. Then the nobles in LAN''s city, with their anger in their hearts, would also want to safeguard their own interests. Under such a premise, they must be on our side. "Ji Mu said, "it''s true."


    Thinking about Zhang Xiu''s abolition of slavery, Ji Mu thinks that Zhang Xiu is gone with the wind. Originally, the strength of Zhang Xiu was extraordinary. After seizing Wulei City, Zhang Xiu''s strength leaps, but she chooses the most extreme way.


    This is a suicide attempt.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier entered.


    The soldier bowed and said, "Lord, there''s Lord rahar outside the mansion. In addition to Lahore, there are also some other blue city nobles, more than 30 people, together to meet the adults


    Rahar, born of Brahman race.


    The rest were aristocrats.


    It was because of the event of Wulei city in the north that these nobles came together to meet.


    With a smile on his face, mahabhara said, "these nobles of the city of Lam are really quick to respond. Ji Mu, it seems that we don''t need to show up. They are all here. "


    Ji Mu said: "what the city master said is true, and if they take the initiative, we can take the initiative. Next, you can blackmail them and let them do their best to contribute. "


    Mahabharata said, "those who know me are my brothers."


    With that, as soon as he waved his hand, he told the soldiers to invite people to the hall to invite the nobles of lahar and other blue cities.


    Rahal is in his early 40s, in his prime of life. He was born as a Brahman caste with a high status. His family is very powerful. The rest of the blue city aristocrats, the old have 60 or 70 years old, the young have more than ten years old.


    These people, gathered in the hall.


    Rahar bowed and said, "rahar, I''ve met the Lord of mahabhara."


    The rest also saluted one after another.


    Mahabhara waved his hand and said, "you don''t have to be polite. I don''t know why you came together."


    Even though mahabhara knew the purpose of rahar and others, he didn''t point it out. Because once pointed out, his initiative will be weakened. Now pretend not to know, in order to make better use of the power of the blue city aristocracy.

 Chapter 1297

    Rahar and mahabhara have known each other for many years. They know each other''s roots and know each other''s bottom. Rahar has got the news of Wulei city. He does not believe that mahabhara will not know the news.


    However, mahabhara did not recognize it, and rahar was helpless.


    Rahal smiles a little and says, "Lord, we are here together because Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, abolished the aristocracy and slavery after seizing Wulei City, and abolished all other systems. In today''s no thunder city, everyone is equal. "


    Mahabharata looked surprised and said, "it happened. Alas, the sentry of our city Lord has not sent back any news. Damn it, a group of rubbish."


    Rahal was contemptuous.


    Just play dumb.


    Rahar knows the nature of mahabhara, and the news of Wulei city has definitely been sent back.


    Lahar didn''t show the slightest sign on his face. He said: "Lord, what Zhang Xiu has done has moved the foundation of our Kushan nobles. If we do not deal with it, it will certainly cause the collapse of Kushan. This will never happen. So I think that in the current situation, it''s better to start first and deal with Zhang Xiu first. "


    Mahabhara said in a deep voice: "rahar, the army of the city leader, on the one hand, should defend the safety of the city of Ramsay, on the other hand, it should defend against the attack from Peshawar. So now, we can only defend passively. You can''t take the initiative. When Zhang Xiu goes south to LAN''s city, the Lord of the city will send troops to resist. "


    Rahal frowned.


    By doing so, mahabhara will obviously make Zhang Xiu easily control Wulei city.


    Rahal said: "Lord, once let Zhang Xiu in Wulei city. Then the foundation of Kushan in Wulei city will be over. When Zhang Xiu goes south, LAN''s city will be very dangerous. "


    There was a flash of light in mahabhara''s eyes and he said, "Mr. rahar, your words are very reasonable. So, what do you think should be done in the current situation? "


    "At the moment, two things need to be done," rahal said


    Mahabhara said, "may I hear it in detail!"


    Rahal said: "the first thing is to take the initiative to attack Zhang Xiu, who is in Wulei City, so that Zhang Xiu won''t be a big player."


    Mahabhara shook his head and said with regret, "Mr. rahar, I have just said that. Although Lan''s city has a vast territory, in fact, its strength is limited. I can defend the Qin army, but I don''t have enough strength to take the initiative. "


    Since rahar has taken the initiative, mahabhara will not take the lead.


    Rahal has to talk about this first.


    Rahar knew that mahabhara was very resourceful. He was a man who could not see a rabbit or cast an eagle. He said, "Lord mahabhara, under the current circumstances, Zhang Xiu is not allowed to sit in the big seat or take root in Wulei city."


    "Once Zhang Xiu takes root in Wulei City, the news will spread all over guishuang. I''m afraid that the whole Kushan pariah will have other thoughts and revolt. "


    "This seed of rebellion must not germinate."


    "It must be nipped in advance."


    "Rahal must take back the city seriously. If Zhang Xiu is allowed to take over, there will even be a steady stream of Dalits and slaves who will go to flee. This will also shake the foundation of Kushan and our nobles. "


    "Of course, as the Lord of mahabhara said, the Lord of mahabhara is not strong enough."


    "We can understand that."


    "So this time, the nobles of the whole city of Lanchester unite and are willing to sponsor the Lord of the city."


    Rahar said: "this time, the major families of the city of Ramadan have sent out their own troops and are willing to donate 100000 soldiers to the commander of mahabhara. In addition, 300000 stone grains were donated for the army of mahabhara. There are even a number of weapons and armor, which are our intention. "


    Ji Mu was surprised to hear that.


    It''s the city of Lange.


    The nobles in LAN''s city have great courage to donate such troops and food at one go. In other words, the nobles of Wulei City, like Lahore, donated troops and food to support him. Even if Zhang Xiu won, Ji Mu would not be so defeated.


    When mahabhara heard this, there was a faint smile on his lips.


    He knows Lahore.


    This is an old fox.


    Although rahal is young, in fact, he always plans before he moves and deals with everything without leaking. Such a person, can show so great sincerity, is absolutely forced to hurry.


    Mahabhara knew very well that if Zhang Xiu had not issued a decree to abolish slaves and nobles in Wulei City, lahar Mao would not have pulled one out and would not have benefited him in any way.


    Lahar is worried that Zhang Xiu will go south.


    At that time, once Zhang Xiu wins, LAN''s city will encounter the same situation as Wulei city.


    The aristocracy will be abolished.


    In this way, rahar took the initiative to join the nobles of the city of Lam and donate money and soldiers to mahabhara to increase the probability of mahabhara''s victory.With a smile on his face, mahabhara said, "thank you, Mr. rahar, and all the other wise men for your kindness. Please rest assured, Mr. rahar, that our Lord will live up to your expectations. With your support, this battle will be won. Please rest assured that with your support, I will take the initiative to attack. Of course, Mr. rahal mentioned two things. What''s the second thing? "


    Rahal said: "the second thing is that our nobles in LAN''s city will unite and send assassins to Wulei city to assassinate Zhang Xiu. If this assassination can succeed, it will be the best. Even if it doesn''t work, it doesn''t matter. "


    Mahabhara said, "I support, I support!"


    There is no need for him to send a single soldier. Mahabhara is 100% supportive.


    Even mahabhara hopes that the assassination arranged by rahar will succeed. If the assassination is successful, he will send troops to the north, which will easily destroy the Qin army.


    Rahar took a meaningful look at mahabhara. He knew that what mahabhara was thinking was that today, Daqin wanted to abolish slavery and aristocracy, which touched their roots. Rahar could not sit back and ignore.


    The nobles in LAN''s city can''t just sit back and ignore them.


    We have to take the initiative.


    So, even if mahabhara took advantage, rahar didn''t say much.


    Rahal got up and said, "good bye, Lord!"


    The rest of the nobles also stood up to leave, they followed rahar together, is to give rahar strong momentum.


    Mahabharata said, "I send you!"


    Immediately, he got up to see him off.


    After seeing rahar and others off, mahabhara returned to the hall, sat down, looked at Jimu, and said, "it seems that God is on our side. With the support of the blue city aristocrats, our forces increased again. Our forces, if we include auxiliary forces, can reach nearly 300000. "


    After a pause, Mahabharata said, "this force exceeds the strength of vesuvata. In particular, with the support of the aristocrats in lancherville, we don''t worry about food. We will win this battle. "


    Ji Mu said: "congratulations to the Lord, congratulations to the Lord."


    He was also filled with emotion.


    His life is not good!


    Visudeva''s life is not good!


    If Zhang Xiu''s troops moved westward, he would have announced early that he would abolish the aristocracy and slavery of Kushan. Then the number of troops mobilized by vesudeva is definitely more than one or two hundred thousand. He didn''t know the least amount of troops Ji Mu could muster.


    Now, Zhang Xiu announced the decree.


    Mahabharata took advantage of it all. It''s a matter of time and fate. It''s his bad luck.


    Without saying more, mahabhara stood up and arranged with Jimu. The next step is to dispatch troops. Of course, it is necessary to dispatch troops to lead the army from Lanshi city to Wulei city to attack the Qin army.

 Chapter 1298

    Lange City, east of the city.


    In a wine shop.


    A thin, middle-aged man with a haircut is drinking with a glass. In front of him, there were two empty wine jars. But after two jars of wine, the middle-aged man was not drunk at all. On the contrary, his eyes were bright and clear.


    His name is Kunda.


    He''s a killer. He''s the most common pariah.


    However, Kunda dares to fight and kill. By chance, he gets the task of helping Lahore kill people. After he finished his assignment, he worked for rahal all the time. Not only that, Kunda itself, among the killers in blue city, is also very prestigious.


    Because he never failed in his mission.


    As long as he goes, he will succeed.


    It''s just that Kunda has been drinking in restaurants most of the time in addition to performing tasks. Anyway, he was not short of money. Most of the money he earned was spent on drinking.


    Especially after every killing, Kunda would drink a lot until he got drunk.


    The shopkeeper of the wine shop is friends with Kunda.


    He has been used to Kunda for a long time. This guy has been drinking slowly from early morning to late afternoon. It''s just that Kunda is sober.


    The shopkeeper went to Kunda, lifted up his robe, sat down and said, "Kunda, every time you perform a task, you have to come to drink and drink. Since we are not willing to carry out the task and help the tyrant, why should we help Lahore again? If you don''t like it, you can find a reason to hide it. "


    "Hidden?"


    Kunda shook his head and said, "you can say it simply. This city is their world. Where can I go to such a big city? No way, no way! People can only drift with the tide. "


    The shopkeeper said, "since we have decided to go with the flow, why do we have to destroy ourselves?"


    Kunda passed the pain in his eyes and said, "although I have to go with the flow, even so, I can''t do it completely in my heart. I am a coward after all. They can''t be more thorough, but they still have naive ideas. "


    The shopkeeper said with a smile: "if you Kunda, you will become a complete killer. Perhaps, we two people, also won''t sit here chatting. Although you are in pain, I still hope that you can get rid of rahal and stop being a tiger. "


    "Hard, hard!"


    Kunda took a sip of his drink and shook his head.


    The shopkeeper said, "actually, I don''t think it''s a big problem. I heard a businessman talking about the situation of Wulei city in a wine shop yesterday. It is said that Wulei city was captured by the army of the Qin Dynasty, and His Majesty the emperor of the Qin Dynasty abolished the nobles and slaves. Since then, all people in Wulei city are equal and common people of the Qin Dynasty. "


    "Ah


    Kunda exclaimed.


    There was an incredible look on his face.


    There is such a thing in Wulei city.


    Kunda asked, "is this a real thing?"


    The shopkeeper said firmly: "nature is true. How can I cheat you? You know, I have a lot of businessmen coming and going here, but I have heard several people say that. "


    Kunda flashed a light in his eyes and said, "so it''s possible for us to live in Lancaster city."


    The shopkeeper said, "it''s possible."


    Kunda once again gulped down a glass of wine, then said: "refreshing, refreshing, looking forward to such a day. This decadent Kushan should have been destroyed long ago. If you can work for Daqin, it will be a lifetime


    The shopkeeper said, "you have a chance. Your family has died anyway. You go to the north without thunder. I''m sure the Qin army will take you. And in this way, you will be able to fulfill your father''s wishes when he died. "


    Kunda was silent when he heard the words.


    Kunda''s father died two years ago. When the old man died of illness, he took Kunda''s hand and hoped Kunda would stop killing for rahar, stop being a Brahman dog and let rahar find his own job.


    Kunda was supposed to have an old father.


    However, it was not implemented.


    After all, entering this business, many times, are involuntarily. Once he wants to get rid of Lahore, he may not be able to accept the consequences, so Kunda''s heart has been anxious, which is why Kunda often gets drunk.


    "Kunda, where did you die?"


    At this time, a curse came.


    The voice was thick and loud.


    No one came, but the voice came first.


    When the shopkeeper heard the voice of the visitor, he shook his head and laughed, so he went on his own.


    A moment later, a middle-aged man with a big body and extremely fat entered. This man is the leader of the killers in LAN''s city. He is specially responsible for contacting the killers. He is also the one who directly contacts with the nobles in LAN''s city. He is the running dog of Lahore.


    When he saw Kunda, he went straight forward, took out a piece of parchment, handed it to Kunda and said, "Kunda, this is the order just given by the Lord. Execute it immediately."With that, he turned and left.


    Kunda took out the parchment and looked at it quickly.


    In a flash, Kunda''s face changed slightly, because there were only four words on the parchment - assassinating Zhang Xiu. Just now, Kunda talked to the shopkeeper about Zhang Xiu. But now, he received the task of assassinating Zhang Xiu.


    Such a situation, Kunda''s heart is very tangled.


    What to do?


    Kunda is faced with a choice.


    The shopkeeper stood not far away and saw Kunda''s appearance, but he didn''t come any closer. Because whenever Kunda receives a task, the shopkeeper doesn''t care. This is his tacit understanding with Kunda.


    Kunda raised her eyebrows for a long time, then grabbed the parchment, dropped the wine money and strode away. He did not leave the city immediately, but returned to the house where he lived.


    Sitting in the hall, he burned the parchment.


    It''s thinking in my head.


    For Kunda, he is fed up with the humiliation of his identity and hopes that such humiliation will end soon. Even Kunda''s heart wants to break the current racial hierarchy.


    Zhang Xiu''s entry into the Kushan brings hope and hopes to break everything in the current Kushan.


    However, lahar wants him to assassinate Zhang Xiu.


    Kunda sat in silence at the door.


    He had a rather gloomy look on his face, but in his eyes he seemed to indulge. As soon as he sat at the door of the hall, he seemed to go back to the night when his father died. His old father, holding his hand, earnestly urged him not to serve the Brahman nobility any more, but to be a real man.


    It''s just that Kunda hasn''t been able to do it.


    Time goes by little.


    The night was cold.


    But Kunda is still sitting like this, even in the middle of the night, the weather is chilly, he is still back against the threshold. At a glance, he seemed to have fallen asleep.


    The night gradually passed, and in the twinkling of an eye, it was the next morning.


    In the eastern sky, a touch of morning glow is rising.


    The golden sun appeared and suddenly came into the yard, making the whole yard seem to be covered with golden gold. That bright golden light, also at this moment, sprinkles on Kunda''s body. The warm light makes Kunda wake up.


    The soft and warm light seems to enter Kunda''s body and moisten Kunda''s heart.


    In the face of the light, his face relaxed.


    Eyes confused look, gradually firm.


    Kunda got up and turned to look at the empty hall. His eyes fell on a chair of the master. Looking at the empty chair, Kunda bent down, bowed respectfully 90 degrees, then turned away without looking back.


    He got out of the yard, mounted his horse and left.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves, Kunda quickly out of the city. After he left Lan''s city, he went all the way north, toward the direction of Wulei city. The territory of the city is very vast. Kunda has been walking for nearly two days from the city to the boundary of the city.


    When he entered the mineless City area, he slowed down.


    Not as fast as before.


    Along the way, when Kunda met a populated place and stopped to supply, he also began to know the situation of Wulei city. What Kunda learned is that in today''s Wulei City, all nobles have been killed, and the nobles have been abolished. All of them are people of the Qin Dynasty, and there is no such thing as born nobles.


    Not only that, in Wulei City, all the aristocratic lands have been recovered and returned to Daqin. Daqin then sublets the land to the people in Wulei city.


    In this way, the people have a place to cultivate.


    Now the weather in March and April is a busy time.


    All Kunda saw and heard along the way were busy scenes, and all the people were busy. Even the people''s faces were full of smiles, because these people were no longer inferior, they were all the people of Daqin.


    In addition, the whole territory of Wulei city is full of construction, not building luxury houses, but opening rivers, repairing bridges and paving roads, all of which are beneficial to the people.


    These are also ways for people to make money.


    It''s not corvee.


    It''s a special work relief program.


    The more Kunda comes to an end, the more touched he is. He thought about what he had met, and felt that his heart was very full. He did not expect that Wulei City, which used to be the same as LAN''s city, is now a big change.


    This is the world!


    Kunda''s heart, unprecedented touch.


    He still slowed down the speed of driving, from the border of no thunder city, to the city of no thunder city, he spent a full five days. In these five days, he saw the changes in Wulei city and saw the prosperous side. The closer Kunda is to Wulei City, the deeper Kunda''s admiration for Zhang Xiu is.


    His mission is to assassinate Zhang Xiu.


    But now, the idea of the assassination has long been out of the air.He just wanted to see Zhang Xiu.


    Take a look at this man who has changed the fate of thousands of people in Wulei city. How wise he is. When Kunda entered Wulei City, he didn''t go straight to the Lord''s residence, but lived in the city.


    The night is deep and the stars are shining.


    Kunda put on his night clothes, washed his black robe, wrapped his body, covered his cheek, and couldn''t see his face. Then he quietly found out the Inn and went to the Lord''s mansion.


    he did not go to see Zhang embroidery in the daytime, because Kunda knew that this thunder free city must have an eye liner. Once you go to see me during the day, it will definitely be exposed, so you can go quietly at night.

 Chapter 1299

    Kunda quietly arrived outside the city Lord''s mansion. With his skill, he easily sneaked inside and quickly touched the outside of Zhang Xiu''s study. He hid in the dark, staring at the study. At this time, the study, has been burning lights, there are voices out.


    During this period, no thunder city has been reforming.


    In particular, after the abolition of nobles and slaves, all the people''s native places need to be re registered. This matter alone is a major event, which can not be completed overnight. Zhang Xiu had to set her own tune for the reorganization of various places, the promotion of the tobacco industry, and even farming.


    So Zhang Xiu is very busy.


    Now, Zhang Xiu doesn''t go south to LAN''s city. For Zhang Xiu, it''s better to control Wu Lei''s city than to capture Lan''s city. After all, it is Zhang Xiu''s hope that a city without thunder will be loyal to Daqin.


    In the study, Zhang Xiu and Xun Yu are discussing business.


    It was taxes that were negotiated.


    After all, the government can''t pay for nothing. It also needs to collect taxes and money to maintain its operation. Therefore, for those engaged in business and farming, there are certain taxes, which need to be adjusted.


    The discussion between Zhang Xiu and Xun Yu was over, and it was almost early in the morning.


    Xun Yu just got up and left.


    Zhang Xiu also stood up and stretched. After he was busy, he went back to the table and thought about what he was dealing with today. At this time, Kunda came out of the dark, went to the door and knocked on the door.


    "Come in!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    Kunda, dressed in a black Nightgown, stepped in.


    He has been hiding in the dark for nearly an hour and a half. For one and a half hours, he carefully observed the situation outside Zhang Xiu''s study. He also listened to Zhang Xiu and Xun Yu discussing tax affairs. He heard that Zhang Xiu''s starting point was to reduce the taxes of the people, so that the people could live a good life.


    Hearing this, Kunda was even more touched.


    Zhang Xiu saw Kunda, her eyes narrowed, but her expression was still calm. She said, "you came to my room late at night, but what''s the matter?"


    Outside Zhang Xiu''s yard, there are royal guards on patrol. The other party can enter quietly, which is by no means an ordinary person. At least they have to have the level of Shi a and Deng Zhan to sneak in.


    Kunda bowed and said, "I''ve met the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. I''m Kunda. I''m from Lanshi city. I have come to assassinate you at the command of rahar, a Brahman nobleman in the city of Ramsey. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    This person actually took the initiative to explain his identity, especially when other people introduced his identity, they didn''t mean to kill him at all.


    This makes Zhang Xiu curious.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "since you are not in a hurry to start, please sit down and talk."


    Kunda heard Zhang Xiu''s words, his eyes narrowed, showing an unexpected look, and said: "Your Majesty, why are you so determined? I''m not in a hurry to do it?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "because I''m also a warrior, and you didn''t show any intention of killing me from the beginning to the end. I''m afraid you don''t want to kill me, either


    Kunda was even more shocked.


    Zhang Xiu''s analysis is absolutely the same.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "but you came to kill me at the command of lahar, a Brahman nobleman in the city of LAN. It seems that the noble reform of Wulei City touched the interests of Brahman. That''s why rahal specially arranged for people to kill me from the city of Lancaster. "


    Kunda''s admiration for Zhang Xiu is even more intense.


    Because Zhang Xiu''s analysis is completely correct.


    Kunda said, "Your Majesty''s analysis is absolutely right. You have abolished the aristocracy and slaves in Wulei City, abolished the caste system, and made all people equal. This reform made the nobles of blue city very angry. These people''s hearts are afraid that Lan''s city will also encounter the situation of no thunder city, so they choose to start first. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "but as an assassin, you came to assassinate me, but you didn''t do it. I wonder why you didn''t prepare to do it since you got the order from Lahore? "


    Kunda replied, "I didn''t do it because I was born a pariah and looked down upon by Brahman. I deeply hope that his Majesty''s reform can be carried out in Lanshi City, even in Kushan. In this way, there will be no nobles in the world. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "rahal tried all kinds of calculation, but he didn''t expect to find a person with ideas. I appreciate that you have such an idea. Are you willing to stay and serve me? "


    "No!"


    Kunda shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said, "why?"


    Kunda explained: "tell your majesty, if I work for you, then the news will reach the city of Lancaster, and rahar will arrange others to assassinate you in anger. At that time, it is unknown who will be sent. What''s more, we don''t know what the assassination will look like at that time, because there is no inside information. "


    "If I go back, even if I admit defeat, it doesn''t make much difference."


    "After all, it''s normal for an assassination to fail.""I''m in the city of Lancaster, and I can send some messages to the emperor. When the time comes, once the emperor goes south to fight with the city of Lanshi, I can also help the emperor. "


    Kunda''s eyes twinkled with hope, and he continued: "even in this city, there are people who are no longer willing to be slaves. As long as they are organized, they are not weak. I''m willing to go back to the city of Lanchester and organize a force for your majesty to serve your majesty and strive to help your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "good, good. You are a very nice person. I appreciate it very much. You have a strong opinion. If there are more people like you in Kushan, countless Kushan people will not be enslaved. "


    Kunda shook his head and said, "Your Majesty praised me. To tell you the truth, I was also an accomplice of Lahore when I was in Lancaster city. I killed a lot of people for him. If it wasn''t for the arrival of the emperor and the abolition of the caste system, the people would see hope and estimate that I would still be a man who would continue to kill for Lahore. "


    Zhang Xiu chuckled.


    Kunda is easy to say, but in fact, it is impossible to make a choice without a touch in his heart.


    Kunda stood up, bowed to Zhang Xiu again, and said, "I hope your majesty can go south to Lanshi city as soon as possible, and save thousands of suffering people trapped in the fire and water."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I will go south as soon as possible. When the matter of Wulei city is solved, I will go south."


    Kunda said, "in that case, I will leave."


    Zhang xiudao: "walk slowly, don''t send!"


    Kunda turned and walked out. When he came to the gate of the yard, suddenly, the royal guards appeared outside and surrounded Kunda. These royal guards didn''t find Kunda before, but they were alerted when they heard that there was a conversation in Zhang Xiu''s room. Because after Xun Yu left, Zhang Xiu was the only one left in her room.


    Now there is one person in the air, which is a problem.


    Zhang Xiu is to get up to walk out, wave a hand way: "all back down, let him leave."


    "Here it is


    The royal guards are ordered to step down immediately.


    Kunda bows to Zhang Xiu and then turns to leave. He came and went quickly. When he got out of the Lord''s mansion, Kunda had already returned to the inn.


    At this moment, Kunda, after lying down, was unable to calm down his emotional excitement for a long time.


    He met Zhang Xiu.


    He talks to Zhang Xiu.


    He is sure that Zhang Xiu is a person who thinks for the people.


    Talking to such a person, Kunda only feels that he has the supreme glory. And although he did not assassinate Zhang Xiu, did not complete the task arranged by Lahore, will be reprimanded back, but Lahore does not regret.


    This trip is worth it.


    When he came to Wulei City, he saw the change, the flourishing Wulei City, and the people full of hope in his eyes. Especially other understanding of Zhang Xiu, the heart will no longer have any hesitation.


    Kunda''s heart is agitated, thinking more about what to do when he returns to blue city.


    Unconsciously, Kunda went to sleep.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    Kunda got up early to wash, left the inn, left Wulei city and went south to return. However, when he came out of Wulei city to a quiet place outside the city, he pulled out his sword and stabbed it on his shoulder.


    A sword, through the shoulder.


    The red blood splashed out and soaked the clothes.


    Kunda''s cheeks were red at first, then turned pale, and his eyes were full of pain. But he was biting his teeth and suffering.


    "Poof!"


    The sword was drawn out and blood spattered out.


    At this moment, Kunda himself is also a faltering, a butt fell to the ground. In fact, the position of this sword is not far from the heart. On the surface, it is almost the same as stabbing at the heart. If Kunda is not good at swordsmanship and knows the key of himself, he would not dare to hurt himself.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Kunda gasped, his face full of pain. But after he gritted his teeth and endured for a period of time, he suddenly burst into laughter, which was full of joy.


    Even if it was painful, he was very happy and comfortable with it.


    This is Kunda.


    In fact, the reason why he wanted to thrust his sword into his left shoulder, even close to his heart, was to go back to work. If he goes back intact, he will not be able to deal with rahal.


    Only self mutilation, and serious self mutilation, can deal with this matter. After half a sound, Kunda slowly recovered, then pulled off a piece of clothes, dressed the wound, and set off south again.


    This way down the south, the speed is faster.


    In less than three days, Kunda returned to Lancaster city. In fact, it''s still that he''s injured and can''t bear the turbulence. If he''s in good condition, he will withdraw earlier.


    After returning, Kunda went to the residence of Lahore to see him.


    When Kunda saw rahal, he knelt down with a plop and said, "Lord rahal, I failed. I went to assassinate him at night. Even when I got close to Zhang Xiu, I found that Zhang Xiu was very good at martial arts and I got a sword on my shoulder. It''s hard to escape. "When rahal heard this, he was very angry. Kunda was a very powerful man and never failed. Now the assassination of Zhang Xiu failed, which made Lahore very dissatisfied.


    Rahal said, "where''s your wound?"


    Kunda took off his left shoulder, revealing the bandaged gauze.


    But rahal stood up, went to Kunda, reached out and pressed on the bloody spot. This force pressed down, in an instant, the original scab of the wound cracked, blood splashed out, dyed red clothes.


    Kunda was biting her teeth and suffering from the pain. But under the severe pain, his body was trembling, and he felt as if there were ants gnawing all over his body.


    He even shivered with pain.


    The blood is constantly flowing out, so that the white gauze is completely dyed red, and the blood overflows.


    Rahal''s face was expressionless, and there was a hint of certainty in his eyes. Regardless of Kunda''s life or death, he turned back to his position and sat down, staring at rahal. He said faintly: "your injury is very serious. Go back and have a good rest."


    "Yes


    Kunda clenched her teeth.


    He was still in great pain, even more so than he had stabbed himself with his sword.


    Rahal waved his hand and Kunda turned and stepped back.


    As Kunda walked out of the hall, he looked up at the blue sky. At this moment, the golden sun, falling from the sky, shines on the entrance of the hall, making the whole Kunda people overflow in a golden ocean.


    He was like a god of gold.


    Kunda''s mouth, also at this moment, evokes a smile, he escaped the disaster. Next, he will organize his strength in the city of Lam, and the pain he endured will eventually be imposed on Brahman nobles like rahar one by one.


    Everything will take revenge.

 Chapter 1300

    Zhang Xiu experienced Kunda''s assassination, but she didn''t pay attention to it. From the beginning to the end, Kunda never showed any intention to kill him in front of Zhang Xiu. It is Kunda''s action that reminds Zhang Xiu and makes her more confident that her actions are correct.


    Guishuang needs reform.


    Today, Zhang Xiu is only reforming in Wulei city.


    Blue city, however, was affected.


    It can be seen that some people do not want to be exploited by the Kushan nobles. Even if they were ordered to assassinate him, they were just acting. This makes Zhang Xiu hard. Only through reform can Daqin gain a foothold in guishuang and obtain the greatest support.


    Zhang Xiu is very clear that as long as he succeeds in the reform of Wulei City, even if he does not go south to Lanshi city for the time being, the news will reach Lanshi city and the whole Kushan.


    With the passage of time, after countless people know, there will be countless people in Kushan who agree with the reform. These people will stand up, stand on Zhang Xiu''s side, and even fight back.


    This is the end of Zhang Xiu''s hope.


    And as the number of people resisting Kushan increased, it became easier for Zhang Xiu to win.


    So now, Zhang Xiu still has no intention of going south.


    The army is still stationed in Wulei city.


    Reform continues.


    After a period of running in, Zhang Xiu''s busy time gradually decreased, but it was a little relaxed, because after the general direction was set, Xun Yu was responsible for the specific implementation.


    With the passage of time, the blink of an eye into April.


    The weather is getting warmer.


    At this time, the whole territory of Wulei city was under the control of Zhang Xiu. The slaves and nobles in the territory were abolished. All the people became civilians and began to register and become the common people of the Qin Dynasty.


    For the people of Kushan, the three words of Daqin people are not only honor, but also recognition of identity.


    They were slaves.


    They used to be Untouchables.


    They used to be looked down upon.


    However, no one can look down upon them, let alone slaves and Untouchables. They can work, they can work, they can support their families.


    This is the reason why the people of Kushan changed into the people of Daqin.


    It is also the reason why guishuang people recognize Daqin.


    On this day, the city Lord''s house.


    Zhang Xiu has nothing to do in her hand. She is playing chess with Guo Jia. They are just like each other. It''s hard to separate them.


    As Guo Jia settled down, he said, "Your Majesty, we have been in Wulei city for some time. In today''s Wulei City, people from all walks of life are attached to it, and thousands of people support it. It''s not polite to say that if you cheer up, there will be countless people in Wulei city. With the support of the people and the complete stability of Wulei City, is it time to go south? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "it''s natural to go south, but I''ll wait for the news of LAN''s city. Before that, the Brahman nobles in the city of Ramsey had sent people to assassinate me. After their failure, they will not be reconciled. So I''m waiting for them


    Guo Jia was surprised and said, "someone assassinated you?"


    At this moment, Guo Jia was very surprised and said, "why didn''t you talk about such a big thing?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not a big deal. What''s more, the people who came to assassinate me didn''t make a sword when they saw me. Even because of our reform in Wulei City, the assassins took our side and talked about the situation of Lanshi city. Today, the reform of Wulei city has made countless people in LAN''s city care for us. "


    Guo Jia said: "most of the people who have gained the way help others who have lost the way. Your majesty is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. Naturally, thousands of people support him. There are many people in LAN''s city who have already stood on his Majesty''s side. Then, it''s easy to capture the city of Lancaster. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "so I am waiting for the news to ferment, and I am waiting for the next move of LAN''s city. If their assassination fails, they will not give up. It''s better to be quiet than to move. Let''s wait for a while


    Guo Jiasi cableway: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded, but Wang came in a hurry. Wang Yue''s face showed a touch of worry. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and reported: "Your Majesty, I have news. There''s new news for Lancaster city. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "say it!"


    Wang Yue solemnly said: "according to the news, mahasaro, the leader of the city of LanChi, led an army of 300000. He set out from LanChi to kill us in Wulei city."


    "Three hundred thousand?"


    Guo Jia frowned and said in a deep voice, "Wang Yue, are you sure the news is true? You know, even Vasudeva in the past did not mobilize so many troops. Can he, the Lord of the city of Lancaster, mobilize so many troops? "


    Wang yuechen reported: "in response to Guo Junshi, the strength of LAN''s city alone does not have 300000 people, only 150000 or 60000. The other power is sponsored by the nobles of blue city. In addition, the nobles of LAN''s city also sponsored money, grain, weapons and armor for mahasaro to lead his soldiers to kill Wulei city. "


    "Hiss!"Guo Jia took a cold breath.


    Three hundred thousand!


    That''s not a small number. Even such a number, as well as the weapons possessed by mahasaro, will pose a great threat to the city.


    Guo Jiachen said: "Your Majesty, it seems that our reform has touched the roots of the Kushan aristocracy. These nobles of Kushan are determined to fight against us. They all make great efforts to sponsor mahasara, intending to let mahasara defeat us. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia continued: "Your Majesty, mahasaro is coming. It''s a great threat to us. At present, we must take precautions as soon as possible, otherwise, if we are not careful, Wulei city may collapse. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "filial piety, to guard against nature, but it is not necessarily rigid. Now, we may not be afraid of mahasara, because mahasara has 300000 troops, but we have the whole mineless city as our backing. "


    Guo Jia said, "what does your majesty mean?"


    He guessed the idea of Zhang Xiu.


    With a flash in her eyes, Zhang Xiu said: "what we need to do now is to encourage all the people in Wulei city to form a situation where all the people are soldiers. Then, call on the whole people of Wulei city to deal with mahasaro. "


    Guo Jiamo rubbed his chin beard and said, "we have this foundation for all the people. Because once Wulei city falls, all the liberated people, who have just had a good life in Wulei City, will become slaves again. With this premise, all the people of Wulei city will stand on our side and spare no effort to resist mahasaro. "


    Speaking of this, Guo Jia pauses for a moment, smiles on his face, and says: "at that time, mahasaro will fall into the sea of the people of Wulei city and be blocked step by step. Even if we arrive at Wulei City, we will lose our troops. "


    "This is our chance!" Guo Jia said


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "those who know me are also filial! That''s the way to break the situation. I want to see how many soldiers will be left when mahasaro arrives at Wulei city. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another sentry came in.


    The sentry took a letter to Wang Yue, handed it to Wang Yue, and then turned back. The more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and a dignified look appeared on his old face.

 Chapter 1301

    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and asked, "but what''s new?"


    Wang Yue said: "report to your majesty, in Wulei City, six newly appointed officials have died. These six people, all of them were killed, all of them were assassinated. "


    Zhang Xiu''s face was gloomy immediately.


    Assassinate!


    All killed in the assassination!


    There is no doubt that this is an assassination arranged by the city of Lancaster. If Zhang Xiu could not be assassinated, he turned to assassinate the officials below with the intention of causing local panic.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, in order to win in the city of Lanchester, we really do whatever we can. Now, even the assassination of officials has been done. I''m afraid there is nothing they can''t do. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "these assassinations can''t be stopped at all. Because these assassins are completely hidden in the dark. It''s almost impossible to dig these people out. "


    Guo Jia also frowned.


    Because the assassination of ordinary officials is an extremely abusive means.


    At this point, there is almost no solution.


    Such a move is similar to that of the two warring parties, who directly coerce the people and threaten them with their lives and deaths. Or, it''s similar to killing people directly, totally losing the bottom line.


    Zhang Xiu asked, "is there a solution to fengxiao?"


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, under the current situation, the only way is to return blood with blood. Besides, I can''t think of any other way. Because it''s impossible to stop it. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and her heart was thinking.


    He was not willing to be beaten so passively.


    As for the arrangement to assassinate the officials of LAN''s city, Zhang Xiu did not expect to use the method of tooth for tooth and blood for blood. Just this way, in a short period of time, it is not very useful.


    Because mahasaro has been killed.


    If we don''t solve mahasaro''s army, everything will be in vain. Everything should be around defeating mahasaro. Everything else can be put on hold for the time being.


    However, if he doesn''t do anything, it doesn''t conform to Zhang Xiu''s temperament. He is not the master who will swallow his anger, nor is he willing to be assassinated.


    Zhang Xiu said, "Wang Yue!"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue stood up straight and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you immediately mobilize the royal guards of LAN''s city to contact a person named Kunda. Tell him about the assassination of officials in Wulei city. Then, ask him to lead the way and let our royal guards assassinate the officials of LAN''s city who should be killed. Since mahasaro is going to kill him, I will accompany him to the end. "


    This is the most helpless way to deal with it.


    Zhang Xiu can only choose this.


    He wants revenge.


    Wang Yue should hold his fist and turn around to arrange it.


    Zhang Xiu''s brain turned and continued to think. After a moment, Zhang Xiu said, "I have a detailed plan on how to deal with mahasara in this war. The main idea is still to let all the people participate as you mentioned just now. Let the people of Wulei city protect their homes. "


    Guo Jia said, "what is your majesty going to do?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the first thing I want to do is to issue a notice to inform the people of LAN''s city. Arrange for people to spread news in the city of LAN, so that they know about the situation of Wulei city. "


    "So, shake the rear of mahasaro."


    "It also shakes the morale of mahasaro."


    "Second, gather all the people and let them..."


    At present, Zhang Xiu elaborated the whole plan in detail. Then Zhang Xiu looked at Guo Jia and asked, "fengxiao, what do you think of my plan?"


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Your Majesty''s plan is exquisite. And through such a plan, we can really encourage the people of Wulei city. And let the people of Wulei city participate, they will really recognize their identity, let them from the bone, become a real Qin people. "


    Then Zhang Xiu said, "according to the plan. Now the army of mahabhara has come. Time does not wait for me, filial piety, you immediately arrange


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia should be boxing, then turned down to arrange.


    He believed in Zhang Xiu''s plan, and such a plan would make the people of Wulei city really baptized.


    Guo Jia to arrange things, less than half a day, two notices spread out.


    The first notice was a letter to the people of LAN''s city.


    The second notice is a letter to the people of Wulei city.


    The content of the first notice is to tell the people of Lanshi city. Mahasaro, the Lord of the city, and the nobles of the city never regarded the people of the city as human beings, but as animals.


    In the letter, he called on the people of LAN''s city and the ordinary soldiers under the command of mahasaro to stand on the side of Daqin, because Daqin is the people''s belonging.This letter is to alienate one side of LAN''s city and to disintegrate the morale of the other side.


    The content of the second notice is to tell the thousands of people of Wulei city that mahasaro, the leader of Lanshi City, has led the army to kill him, and the nobles of Lanshi city support him to destroy Wulei city and restore the order and rules of Wulei city.


    In addition, a message was published on the notice. It was Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, who called on the whole people of Wulei city to come to the main residence of Wulei city to collect weapons to fight against the army of mahasaro and defend their homeland.


    That''s the way the whole people fight.


    It''s to stop the enemy.


    These two notices, in a short time, spread all over the city of no thunder. For a time, countless people in Wulei city were moved by the news. Some timid people shrink up and are unwilling to take part in the war. But in Wulei City, there are countless people who benefit from Zhang Xiu''s reform.


    These people are not willing to lose everything.


    So after the people talked about fermentation, some people began to gather outside the city Lord''s house.


    On this day, in the morning.


    In the middle of the day, near noon, outside the Lord''s mansion, the whole street has gathered countless people. On the faces of these people, there was anger and indignation.


    They talk about aristocratic brutality.


    They talk about today''s happiness.


    They talk about the future.


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the common people were unwilling to lose today''s good days, so they came forward and wanted to take part in the battle. So they gathered in the city Lord''s mansion to get weapons so that they could take part in the battle.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    The sound is more noisy.


    Creak!


    Suddenly, in the voice of the people, the closed gate of the city Lord''s house opened. A tall and strong figure came out of the Lord''s mansion. They are brave and have the power of the superior.


    As soon as he appeared, the whole city was quiet.


    This person is Zhang Xiu.


    Behind Zhang Xiu, there are Wang Yue, Shi a, Deng Zhan and others, all standing beside her to protect her safety. Once Zhang Xiu has to deal with them at any time.


    "See your majesty!"


    In the crowd, suddenly someone knelt down to salute.


    "See your majesty!"


    "See your majesty!"


    All of a sudden, the mountain roared like a tsunami. This cry reverberated in the air, one by one people''s faces, more fanatical look, extremely excited.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they were able to be upright.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they were able to eat and wear well.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they are no longer indulgent, and their descendants are no longer inferior.


    They are grateful to Zhang Xiu.


    Shouts constantly reverberate in the air, the original noisy call, gradually, gathered into a neat sound of gold and iron. The voice soared to the sky and echoed inside and outside the Lord''s residence for a long time.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down to signal everyone to be quiet.


    A moment later, there was silence.


    Everyone''s eyes are focused on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her to speak.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "folks, yesterday the government issued a notice. I think you already know that mahasaro, the Lord of the city of Lanchester, led a large army to kill. "


    "This time mahasaro led the army, not only to destroy Wulei City, but also to restore the previous system. Let the city of no thunder return to the era of cannibalism. "


    "This is not allowed by me."


    "Therefore, I will meet mahasara, and you will meet mahasara. Because this is your home with me. We should protect the safety of our home. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "before handing out weapons to you, I am clear that many people must have thought that the army of mahasara is so powerful, you are a group of scattered soldiers, even if you get weapons, I''m afraid you can''t stop mahasara."


    "So many people don''t want to come."


    "Now those who are willing to come to collect weapons are all for the purpose of protecting their homes, your homeland and their wives and children. You''re good boys, and you''re even better men. "


    "What I want to say is that to let you take up arms against the enemy is not to let you charge directly, let alone to let you block the progress of mahasaro."


    "You''re harassing the army that''s attacking blue city."


    Zhang Xiuji said, and continued: "when you face the enemies of LAN''s city, you have made great contributions by hiding your own grain so that the enemy can''t find it."


    "When you face the enemies of Lancaster City, when they camp and rest, you harass them secretly so that they can''t rest well. That''s also a meritorious service."


    "When you face the enemies of blue city, some of them pee alone. You go up and kill them. You also make great contributions.""You dig tunnels, lay mines in ambush, bomb the troops of the city, and kill one of them. Two of them are killed. That''s a lot of work. "


    Zhang Xiu kept talking and continued: "no matter what measures are taken, they can be used as long as they can stop the enemy, weaken the enemy, smother the enemy, medicate and ambush the enemy. This battle is the battle of defending our country in Wulei city. For the sake of your home and your family, I hope that you can use your brains and try your best to stop the enemies of Lancaster city. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "of course, you are not a regular army. All your actions are based on security. We must ensure our own safety and not put ourselves in danger. "


    The people around us are very excited.


    They were afraid at the thought of facing countless troops in Lancaster city. But now, after hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, one by one suddenly realized, as if suddenly enlightened, and understood how to deal with the army of LAN''s city.


    They know what to do.


    More direction.


    Even the inner fear, also through Zhang Xiu''s words, now become more confident.

 Chapter 1302

    The people talked about it and said that they wanted to fight against the army of Lanshi city. Although the common people have never crossed the battlefield, they have their own cleverness and ways of survival.


    Zhang Xiu''s words opened their minds.


    At this moment, they know that Zhang Xiu''s call for all the people to fight is not to let them die, but to weaken the army of LAN''s city, just to let them continue to block the army of LAN''s city.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    The sound lasts for a long time.


    This noisy voice, constantly thinking back, makes the whole outside of the city master''s mansion seem to be a noisy downtown.


    Zhang Xiu sees in the eye, but does not feel noisy.


    On the contrary, I feel happy in my heart.


    These people are talking, proving that they are ready to participate in the all-round war.


    After a long time, the voices of the people around gradually subsided, and there were boos. All the people stopped talking, and their eyes fell on Zhang Xiu again.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I have already said what I should have said just now. According to the plan, weapons should be issued so that you can fully resist the army attack of blue city. But before that, I have two pieces of news for you. "


    "Originally, it could not be said."


    "Just to let you know the true face of the powerful people in LAN''s city, I don''t intend to hide it."


    "Before that, the powerful men in LAN''s city sent assassins to sneak into the city master''s residence, intending to assassinate me. However, there are many guards around me, and I''m not one who doesn''t practice martial arts. All of them beat back the assassins without danger. "


    Zhang Xiu said the first news.


    WOW!!


    When the people heard this, they were in an uproar.


    One by one, the common people cursed, and they all cursed the nobles in LAN''s city. If you don''t win, you''re going to send someone to kill you. Such a noble should be cut to pieces.


    Today, the people of Wulei city still fully support Zhang Xiu. The reason is not that Zhang Xiu is so wise and powerful, but that Zhang Xiu can lift their slave status and make them live a happy life.


    Now, Zhang Xiu was assassinated.


    It''s really outrageous that the two countries used such despicable means when they exchanged troops.


    The anger of the people gradually surged.


    More and more people are crying out to kill the nobles and defeat the army. Under the agitation of the masses, the hearts and minds of the people have gathered as never before.


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly, very satisfied with the reaction of the people.


    It''s popular.


    Zhang Xiu raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that all the people would be quiet. When a pair of eyes converged on Zhang Xiu again, Zhang Xiu said: "folks, the second piece of news I want to say is that yesterday, there were six officials in Wulei city who died unexpectedly, all of them were assassinated."


    Boom!!


    The mood of the people was completely ignited.


    It just exploded.


    The reason why the people have a good life today is that all the new officials are ordinary people. They used to be humble assistant officials, but now they become officials, so they all consider the common people and keep in touch with their sufferings.


    Now, there are six dead.


    They all died of assassinations.


    Zhang Xiu clenched her fist and threw a voice to the ground: "I''m not afraid of the battle of LAN''s city. However, the nobles of the city of Lanchester used such despicable means. They think that killing the new officials in Wulei city will scare us and make us dare not fight. They are wrong. It is their mean means that make us have to take revenge. "


    "Don''t take revenge, swear not to be a man."


    "It is hard for the dead spirit to rest without revenge."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in this battle, we should not only defeat mahasaro head-on. In addition, I have ordered the royal guards under my command to return blood with blood. The royal guards under my command will start to assassinate the nobles of Lanshi city. "


    "Revenge, we want revenge!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her fist and almost tried to roar.


    "Revenge


    In the crowd, the people shout.


    "Revenge


    "Revenge


    One by one, the people were shouting, and they were completely angry. At this time, they have no fear of blue city. What''s more, they also know that Lan''s city is so painstaking and uses all kinds of means. Once they capture Wulei City, they will lose everything.


    They can only fight one!


    Zhang Xiu looked at the excited people and said nothing more. With a wave of her hand, some soldiers came forward. These soldiers had been ordered for a long time, so after they appeared, they quickly let the people gathered in line and began to issue weapons one by one.


    These weapons are not only knives, but also mines. After all, the operation of land mines is simple. They are handed over to the people and have little influence. They can also block the army of Lanshi city to the maximum extent.One by one, after receiving the people''s weapons, they left.


    They were excited.


    They want revenge.


    But when these people left, they also had Zhang Xiu''s orders. Zhang Xiu tells the people who want to take action to remember that they should not take action alone. It''s better for a group of people to take action together, so that no one will take over.


    One by one, the people came to collect it and it didn''t end until the evening.


    Today''s people are no less than tens of thousands.


    Although Zhang Xiu''s speech today, many people in Wulei city can''t hear it. But Zhang Xiu believes that there are tens of thousands of people who have come here today. When they hear Zhang Xiu''s words, they will spread the news and make it clear.


    In the end, there''s going to be resistance against the army in blue city.


    And Zhang Xiu''s move in Wulei city was soon spread. When this news is put back into mahasaro''s hands, he has arrived at the border of the city of Ramsey and is about to enter the city of no thunder.


    Mahasaro looked at the letter in his hand, which recorded the scene that Zhang Xiu called on all the people to fight, and also recorded the things that Zhang Xiu said he wanted to revenge. As for Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, mahasaro was not afraid. Even in his heart, mahasaro wanted Zhang Xiu''s people to kill more nobles and officials of LAN''s city.


    The reason is very simple. The nobles in the city of Lanchester are in the way. These people are moths. Keeping these people is totally for the sake of mahasaro and killing them all.


    As for the officials of LAN''s city, many of them were aristocrats.


    When these people die, mahasaro can arrange for his own people to take over more power.


    The most important point is that Zhang Xiu''s "tooth for tooth" and "blood for blood" will stimulate the nobles in LAN''s city. Originally, these nobles took out more than 100000 troops to sponsor mahasaro. They may not be willing to continue bleeding.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s sudden murder will frighten these nobles and urge them to do their best to send all the food and weapons they can give to mahasaro, so as to facilitate mahasaro''s action.


    In any case, it is good for mahasaro.


    Especially in this war, the army under mahasaro was far more than before. He thinks that with such an army, it is not difficult to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    Mahasaro was not afraid of the city of no thunder. All the people were in the army. He ordered full speed forward.


    Army, keep going.


    Finally, mahasaro, with his army, entered the territory of Wulei city and began to march to the location of Wulei city.

 Chapter 1303

    The army under mahasaro is more than 300000. Such a lineup, stretching more than ten miles, along the official road, are the troops of the city of blue. Such an army, the weather is slightly hot, can sweat.


    The vast army, dense, at a glance, can not see the end.


    Mahasaro, in armor, was in the central army.


    In this battle, mahasaro has full confidence. He believed that with his own strength, Wulei city could be easily destroyed. After all, his army is more than 300000. He thought that such an army was enough to sweep Wulei city.


    When the army under mahasaro continued on its way. The front team, into a mountainous area.


    The mountain is not steep.


    The hillside is rolling, full of green grass.


    On both sides of the official road, in a low grass, two people hide in it. One of them was in his early thirties. The other is in his early twenties, when he is young and powerful.


    The older man was named mohido.


    The younger man''s name was leaham.


    Both of them are villagers nearby. They once went to Wulei City, where they received weapons and heard Zhang Xiu''s impassioned words.


    Moxidor and leaham were both slaves.


    In the past, they were 10000 people in prison. Because of the arrival of Zhang Xiu, they were released, became civilians, and returned to their homes.


    In particular, the government provided work for relief, and moxidor and Lixian worked every day to earn money. But now mahasaro led the army to kill, and the two brothers responded to the call and simply stopped working for the time being. They returned to their village with their weapons, looking for a place to ambush here.


    With a look of excitement, Lixian said, "brother, it''s almost done. These Rangers have entered our minefield. Now, it''s ready to explode. "


    "Don''t worry!"


    Answered mosido, shaking his head.


    With resentment in his eyes, he continued: "these damned rangers are going to invade our Wulei city. If we want to kill them, we have to wait a little longer and teach them a full lesson. Now, the mines we get are just a little bit. If you don''t make good use of it, it''s a pity. "


    You can get more mines.


    After all, it''s a very important weapon.


    Of course, the two brothers, mohido and Lixian, also concentrate all the mines of nearby people together. So the mines in his hands are not a few, nearly a hundred.


    When the army of Lancaster city completely occupied the place where the land mines were laid, moxidor did not hesitate any more. He tugged at the lead of the fuse and made a sudden effort.


    At that time, the mine on the official road was detonated.


    "Boom!"


    The explosion sounded suddenly on the official road.


    With an explosion, the soil flew, and the soldiers standing on the ground were blown out immediately. In particular, four soldiers died and several others were injured in the explosion.


    "Boom! Boom


    With the first explosion, the surrounding mines were detonated.


    Explosions, one after another.


    Taking the explosion point of the first mine as the center, countless mines exploded in this area, and the sound of explosion was deafening.


    One by one, the soldiers of blue city who were standing in the mine explosion area were all bombed.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    They were on their way forward, and the soldiers of blue city stopped at this moment. Only the soldiers in the explosion area ran around in panic and were afraid of being beaten.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    At the moment, Lixian and moxiduo had already slipped away, quietly leaving through the grass and bushes in spring.


    When mahasaro got the news, he rode to the site of the explosion, looked at the area of the explosion, frowned, looked very dignified, and his eyes even colder.


    Damn no thunder city man.


    How dare you ambush his soldiers.


    But in mahasaro''s heart, he still had some doubts about how such weapons were made.


    There are shells in blue city.


    There are explosives, too.


    However, the weapons that suddenly caused the explosion on the ground, under the command of mahasaro, did not exist. However, even though mahasaro had doubts in his heart, he would not reveal them. He just ordered the soldiers to count the losses quickly.


    After checking, mahabhara''s face was gloomy.


    In the explosion just now, 312 soldiers under his command were killed and more than 80 injured.


    The loss was not great for mahasaro.


    But a small attack, even without seeing the figure of the enemy, damaged more than 300 people. Such a loss is unbearable for mahasaro.Beside mahasaro, Jimu also looks serious.


    Qin Ji said: "this is the weapon of the new type of land mine Lord. However, mines are buried underground. If you want to detonate mines, there must be people around. "


    "Search, search now."


    Mahasaro ordered immediately.


    The soldiers under his command immediately started to search the surrounding areas. But their reaction was much slower. When they found out that the squatting positions of Lixian and moxiduo had been trampled, they had already run far away.


    When the soldier reported where he had been trampled, mahasaro came to look at him and frowned.


    The site was trampled everywhere.


    It''s surrounded by grass.


    From a distance, you can''t really see it, so it''s impossible to find it early in the morning. Mahasaro was attracted by the wires on the ground.


    He picked up the lead wire on the ground, followed the lead wire forward, and soon came to the roadside.


    However, when we arrived at the roadside, we found that the lead wire was buried in the ground. In the soil part under the ground, there was a bamboo tube buried underneath, and the lead wire shuttled from the main pipe to the soil and connected to the mine.


    In this way, the wires connected in series under the ground will not be blocked when pulling.


    "Damn it


    Mahasaro murmured, his face full of anger.


    Ji Mu saw the thread in his eyes, and there was a shadow between his eyebrows. He looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Lord, from the explosion just now. Zhang Xiu''s intention is very simple, that is, according to what he said, to form a situation in which all the people are soldiers. The whole people of Wulei city will attack us. Now, we have entered the territory of Wulei City, that is, we are close to the enemy. "


    Mahasaro gritted his teeth and said, "even so, I am not afraid. This time, I will not stop until the city of no thunder is broken. Ji Mu, you are most familiar with the city of no thunder. Tell me, what''s the fatal flaw of Wulei city? "


    Ji Mu shook his head and said, "Lord, there is no fatal flaw in Wulei city. You know, under the management of Zhang Xiu, the people of Wulei city now support Zhang Xiu and stand on her side. It''s almost impossible for Zhang Xiu to resist the strategy of all the people. "


    Mahasaro frowned.


    It''s not good.


    He is a long way from Wulei city. If there are obstacles everywhere during this period, it will cause great losses to mahasaro.


    Mahasaro turned his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Jimu, younger brother, we are going to Wulei city on the official road. Is there no other way to Wulei city? "


    "Yes, it is!"


    Ji Mu was silent for a moment.


    With a look of great joy on his face, mahasaro cheered up and said, "well, well, now that we have the rest of the way. Then, we''ll build a plank road in the open and go through the dark. Our troops will quietly take another road to attack Wulei city. "

 Chapter 1304

    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "Lord, it''s not impossible to go to Wulei city from another road. The problem is that this road is not easy to follow. Not only that, it will take a lot of detours. "


    Mahasaro said: "what''s terrible about detour? It''s OK. The most fearless thing for the city master is detour. As long as you can kill Wulei city suddenly, everything is worth it. I''d like to have a look. Once our army suddenly appears in Wulei City, let''s see what Zhang Xiu will do. "


    Ji Mu said, "well, I''ll lead the way."


    After a pause, Ji Mu said, "it''s just that the road has changed. Will the army change its course immediately?"


    "Of course not!"


    Mahasaro shook his head. He looked confident and said with a smile, "this time, we have a total of 300000 troops. With the rest of the auxiliary troops, the number of troops has to be increased. If such an army were to change its course, it would not be a waste, and it would not be able to hide its whereabouts. "


    Ji Mu heard the words and said: "then the Lord of the city means to dispatch some people?"


    "Yes


    Mahasaro said, "we are an army of 300000 along the way. One hundred thousand people were transferred from the inside to make a detour. As long as these 100000 people reach Wulei city first, they will be able to support the remaining 200000 troops on the other hand. This hundred thousand elites are led by our city Lord himself, and you, Jimu, are with me. "


    "Yes


    Ji Mu nodded his head.


    He agrees that a team of 300000 people, even if 100000 people are missing, will not have a great impact. After all, it''s not a complicated matter to disguise 300000 people as 200000 people.


    Mahasaro made a plan, and ordered: "pass the order, and the army will continue on its way."


    The army continued to advance and order was restored.


    At this time, mahasaro did not divide his troops for the time being. After all, in the daytime, it''s easy to leak the news if he divides his troops to go on his way. So now, mahasaro, the army is still moving forward.


    When he went on for another hour, suddenly, a flying sentry horse came back and came to mahasaro''s side. He reported: "Lord, it''s not good. The bridge on the river ahead was destroyed. It''s impossible for us to cross the river. "


    Brush!


    Mahasaro''s face changed slightly.


    It''s really the whole people.


    The bridge he wanted to pass on the way was blown up.


    Mahasaro ordered, "go, go and have a look."


    At that moment, he took Ji Mu forward quickly, and soon he reached the riverside in front of him. Now it''s early spring, where the river is shallow, the river is not particularly turbulent.


    But Qiao Liang on the river has been blown up.


    There''s no way to cross the river.


    Unless it''s across the river.


    Mahasaro looked at the destroyed bridge, looked at Ji Mu, and said in a deep voice, "you think these people have destroyed the bridge. What is their purpose? "


    As soon as Ji Mu saw the river, he thought that when he was in Wulei City, he had made a plan to flood the Qin army in peacock ridge. But in the end, it was the army led by chalky that was completely submerged.


    Zhang Xiu''s Qin army is intact.


    Ji Mu replied almost reflexively: "in my opinion, the reason why the Qin army is like this. In other words, the people of Wulei City blew up the bridge. Their intention is very simple, that is, when we cross the river, we suddenly dig up the river bank upstream, and then flood us


    Mahasaro said, "but in my opinion, the river is not fast. Even because of the slow flow of the river in early spring, it is impossible for the river to form a flood peak


    Ji Mu said, "Lord, don''t be careless."


    Mahasaro said, "so what do you say to do?"


    Ji Mu''s eyes flashed a light and said in a deep voice: "in my opinion, we should be cautious in the current situation. In case of a flood on the way across the river, it will have a great impact on our army. So now, no matter what, we still have to check the upstream of the river first to see if there is any excavation of the river and construction of dams. If so, it won''t be too far away. "


    Mahasaro said, "yes, it is. Now we have to be on the safe side. "


    Immediately, mahasaro arranged sentries to go north along the river to investigate the situation in the upper reaches of the river.


    Mahasaro now, but also stopped.


    Stay by the river.


    However, mahasaro looked at Ji Mu and said, "Ji Mu, my dear brother, do we need to cross the river to divide our troops?"


    Ji Mu said, "Lord, I really want to cross the river. We can''t divide our forces until we cross the river. If we don''t cross the river now, we can''t divide our forces. Because on this side of the river, there is no other way to Wulei city. "


    When mahasaro heard this, he said nothing more.


    So far, we have to wait.


    When the mahasaro army was stationed, it was behind the army, six miles away. There are still troops in the city. After all, there are too many soldiers in the city, more than 300000. So there are still troops in the rear six miles away.The terrain of the place where the soldiers were stationed was under the rolling mountains.


    The location of the hillside is not steep, only about 60 degrees of slope, and below the mountain, it is an arc-shaped open position. All the soldiers of the city of Lanchester were stationed in the inner ranks.


    Now it''s on the hillside on the left, at the top of the mountain.


    It''s at least two miles from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the hill. However, if you run down from the top of the mountain, you can finish it in a short time.


    At this moment, on the top of the mountain, a group of ordinary people appeared.


    There are about twenty people in this group.


    Among them, impressively advantageous salty and moxiduo two people, on their faces is brimming with the bright smile.


    Leanne, mohido and the other 20 or so gathered one by one.


    And the name of the chief was hermoth.


    He was once a businessman, but he once offended the nobles in Wulei City, so that he was thrown into prison and became a miner. Through Zhang Xiu''s Liberation of his identity, Hei Maofu regained his freedom. Because of his vision and good martial arts, he became the leader of these 20 people.


    With a smile on his face, he said: "before, Lixian and moxido bombed the scoundrels in LAN''s city and killed them. Now, let''s give them another big gift. "


    Lixian said with a smile: "brother hermaphrodite is really powerful. He thought that we were going to destroy the bridge to use the flood to attack them. But this river can''t store water at all. Where do they want to get it? Our task is to give the blue city soldiers in the rear a fatal blow. "


    "That''s right, this time, mahasaro is going to jump," he said


    "Don''t talk nonsense. Push all the stones down for me. All at once, push it all down. In this way, the soldiers of blue city can''t escape. "


    On the top of the mountain, there are stone balls.


    All the stone balls are more than one person and more than ten feet high. Originally, these were stones. After a simple grinding, they turned into stone balls, which could roll quickly without getting stuck.


    There are thirty such stone balls.


    They were all prepared with the help of the dark end.

 Chapter 1305

    "Push me!"


    The black man gave a loud order.


    In a flash, people pushed the stone ball out of the top of the mountain. As soon as the stone ball rolled out of the top of the mountain, it began to roll down the slope. In particular, the slope of the mountain is about 60 degrees, which is not steep, but for the stone ball, such a slope can make the stone ball roll quickly.


    Boom!!


    A stone ball, constantly rolling.


    In the twinkling of an eye, thirty huge stone balls rolled down the slope. The mighty momentum was extremely turbulent, especially the lower it went, the faster the ball rolled down, and the more fierce the momentum was.


    At the foot of the hillside, the soldiers of Lange City, who had stopped to rest, suddenly saw the stone balls that had fallen down and were close to them. They were all flustered and wanted to run around.


    But the problem is, the soldiers on the hillside are all together.


    Moreover, these soldiers are crowded and want to run around, so they can''t run away at all. So many people burst out of the power of the flood and famine in their bodies, only to overthrow the soldiers beside them on the ground, and directly trample on the people who fell on the ground to charge.


    There are so many stampedes.


    Rao is so, the first stone ball, also is with the trend of lightning, rolled into the crowd.


    Stone ball ferocious forward, a collision, put in front of the two soldiers on the ground. Then, move on. Where the stone ball passed, soldiers were knocked over, and even many people were crushed.


    The rest of the stone balls also rolled into the crowd.


    The impact continues.


    Screams come and go.


    More and more blue city soldiers are running around to avoid the rolling stone ball. However, as long as they are chased by the stone ball, they will be either killed or injured. The light ones just crush their hands and feet, and the heavy ones will be directly killed.


    Thirty stone balls rolled down, causing huge casualties to the soldiers in the city of Lancaster.


    In one wave, more than 500 people died.


    Countless people have been injured.


    Hei Mo Fu and others are still hiding at the top of the mountain and have not left for the time being. They even stood up and yelled, shouting to kill the soldiers in blue city.


    This scene fell into the eyes of the soldiers of blue city at the foot of the mountain.


    Seeing this, a general nearby gritted his teeth in anger. Immediately, he mobilized the soldiers to rush forward and prepare to rush up the rocky hillside to take these people down completely.


    Eight hundred soldiers, up the slope.


    These blue city soldiers are also angry in their hearts. They want to kill these damned troublemakers. So they carry this weapon, fast charge. It''s only about two miles from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, so it''s not far from the top of the mountain after the soldiers rush up a certain distance.


    Distance, in the rapid narrowing.


    From two Li Road to one Li Road, and finally to 800 steps. But the more you go up the mountain, the more tired you are, so the distance is constantly shortening.


    When the distance was shortened to less than 300 steps, Lixian couldn''t help but said: "brother heimuffu, these damned soldiers from the city of Lancaster are less than 300 steps away from us. That''s the distance to take action. "


    "Don''t worry!"


    There was a flash of light in his eyes and he said, "we don''t have to worry for the time being. When the distance is less than 200 steps, we will take action no later. "


    Two hundred steps is a constant distance.


    Such a distance is enough for the dark end and the people under their command to move, and it is also enough for them to retreat calmly.


    The distance is still getting shorter.


    When the distance was 200 steps, he looked at the people around him and said, "brothers, are you clear about the use of this grenade?"


    "Clear!"


    All of them answered.


    There was a look of expectation on each face.


    "How to use it?" he said again. Originally, the emperor did not want to issue such weapons as grenades for fear that we would hurt ourselves. It''s my persuasion, your majesty, that sent us a batch of grenades. This time, grenades must be used well. "


    "Don''t worry about it, elder brother. We can do it," he said


    "Yes, no problem," said mosido


    One by one, I promise.


    He watched as the enemy continued to approach. When he reached 200 paces, he decided to throw a grenade. In fact, if a normal flat throw, throw 200 steps at a time, there are still some difficulties. Most people, at least, can''t achieve this.


    The problem is that they are now located on the hillside, throwing weapons from the hillside. After such a slope, it is not a matter at all to throw 200 steps. It is very easy to do so.


    A grenade, flying up in the air, suddenly landed in the forward soldiers.


    Boom! Boom!!


    One after another, there were explosions.The soldiers who were rushing forward suddenly encountered a grenade explosion. For a moment, they were stunned. They didn''t think of it. On the way up, they were caught off guard by an explosion.


    There''s no defense at all.


    As a result, more than 100 people were killed and injured in this wave of bombing.


    Seeing the soldiers killed in the blast, he was very excited and said happily, "brothers, we''ve killed nearly a thousand people. Come on, throw out the rest of the grenades and blow up these blue city soldiers. "


    "Whew! Whew


    Grenades one by one, keep throwing out.


    The roar of the explosion was still ringing, so that the soldiers of the blue city who rushed up again suffered losses. But the explosion, after all, failed to stop the soldiers who rushed up.


    The distance is further shortened.


    Not long ago, it was less than 80 steps.


    "Retreat, all retreat."


    Seeing this, he immediately gave an order. They turned and retreated to the other side of the mountain. It''s the easiest way to go down the mountain road on the other side, especially from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. In the shortest time, it''s already at the bottom of the mountain.


    This area, however, is a forest.


    The last group of people in the dark disappeared soon after they sneaked into it.


    Even if the soldiers on the top of the mountain want to pursue them, they can''t help it when they see people drilling into the woods. After all, it''s a forest. If you run into it, you''ll be killed.


    So the people who got to the top of the mountain finally withdrew and went back to the bottom of the mountain. At the same time, mahasaro and Jimu came to the scene of the conflict from the front river.


    Mahasaro looked at the stone balls on the ground, at the corpses, and at the wounded soldiers. His face was very gloomy and filled with endless anger.


    He was completely angry.


    These damned mineless people.


    Previously, he ambushed them with land mines, resulting in the loss of hundreds of his soldiers. Now, it''s rolling stones in the rear, causing hundreds of people under his command to be damaged.


    Mahasaro''s breathing was gradually rapid.


    There''s a lot of killing in my eyes.


    After a while, seeing the soldiers coming back, mahasaro said, "what''s the matter? Didn''t you catch up?"


    The centurion in charge said: "report back to the Lord of the city. When we catch up, the other side climbs over the mountain and enters the forest. We are afraid to pursue because we are afraid of ambush in the forest. "


    Mahasaro said, "how many people are there on the other side?"


    The centurion said, "the number of people on the other side is about twenty."


    When mahasaro heard this, he was even more furious. There were no more than 20 people on the other side, but such a wave of people caused him great harm. Even none of the other party''s people suffered any loss, especially the others didn''t even see the other party''s appearance.


    "A group of rascals!"


    Mahasaro murmured and clenched his fist.


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "it seems that Zhang Xiu''s strategy of all the people has played a role. After we entered the territory of Wulei City, we have been restricted and attacked everywhere along the way. "


    With a flick of mahasaro''s big sleeve, he said: "Zhang Xiu''s own strength is not enough, so she uses this method. Hum, the battle of Zhang Xiu is just a struggle. He will lose in the end. "


    Ji Mu nodded: "I believe that the Lord of the city will win. In particular, after we divided our forces, Zhang Xiu''s stratagem lost its effect. At that time, we will give Zhang Xiu a thunderbolt. "


    Mahasaro said: "it can only be like this. Zhang Xiu, after I defeat him, I will certainly break him to pieces."

 Chapter 1306

    Ji Mu nodded in agreement with mahasaro.


    He is extremely resentful of Zhang Xiu. Because after Zhang Xiu led the army of the Qin Dynasty into the territory of Kushan, he captured Wulei city in a short time. As a result, he lost everything of Wulei City, which made him depend on others.


    All this is caused by Zhang Xiu.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, a sentinel galloped from the front.


    Sentry quickly came to mahasaro''s side, turned over and dismounted, hugged his fist and said: "tell the city master, we''ll explore upstream along the river. After more than ten miles of exploration, there was no dike construction in the whole upstream. Even the more upward the river is, the narrower it is. It is impossible to build dams and dig embankments. "


    When mahasaro heard this, his brows rose.


    He had a puzzled look on his face.


    What''s going on?


    Could it be that the other side didn''t want to dig a dam at all.


    Ji Mu also frowned, thinking in his heart. After pondering over it, he said with a straight face: "Lord, maybe this is the case. The destruction of this bridge is just a cover up to attract our attention. Because the bridge was destroyed, we suspected there was an ambush, so the army stopped and the rear was attacked. The real fight is where the stone ball fell before. "


    On hearing this, mahasaro nodded and agreed: "it''s really possible. After all, the other side destroyed the bridge, but there was no other action. It could only be connected with the rear."


    Ji Mu said, "in that case, you can cross the river. In particular, the river is full of geese and warm rocks, and there is no sand, so we can cross the river on foot. Let''s hurry and cross the river now. "


    Mahasaro looked at the flowing river. The river in front of him was not very fast. He could see the bottom clearly. He could see the goose warm rocks everywhere. If he stepped down, he would not sink. He should be able to cross the river.


    "Yes, cross the river at once."


    Mahasaro gave the order.


    With his orders, his army began to prepare to cross the river.


    However, even so, mahasaro''s heart is quite alert. After the first wave of soldiers under his command successfully crossed the river, he immediately stationed on the other side of the river to prevent attacks.


    In this way, mahasaro ordered his army to cross the river quickly.


    At the end of the crossing, it was already late.


    It was almost evening.


    At this time, mahasaro ordered to move forward for a distance and stop nearby. In fact, this area is quite open, and it is full of grass. Even if it has ever been, it is a bush, not an easy place to be ambushed.


    Mahasaro''s army, stay at once.


    The army set up camp and quickly set up camp.


    Because there are more than 300000 people in the army, such a camp covers a vast area, and all the wide surrounding places are included in the camp. At the edge of the camp, it is close to the Bush area.


    It''s dark after all.


    The cooks in the army were all busy and began to make dinner in the evening. The cooking smoke rises in the camp, and the smell of rice is even more fragrant. The food supply for more than 300000 people is not a trivial matter. It took more than an hour to solve it.


    It still depends on the logistics, the cooks and the soldiers.


    Otherwise, it will not be solved for more than one hour.


    The big account of the Chinese army.


    Mahasaro and Jimu, take their seats.


    Both of them have already had dinner and are discussing the route of sending troops. Ji Mu, as the former leader of Wulei City, is very familiar with the landform of Wulei city. So he knew how to get to Wulei city from another place.


    Mahasaro said: "my dear brother Jimu, after what happened today, I can see one thing clearly. Although Zhang Xiu is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, she is extremely cruel and has no lower limit. In my opinion, we must come up with countermeasures, otherwise we will all be attacked along the way. "


    "Although you and I are going to take a part of the army by the path, we will not be found or stopped. But the problem is that the other army will face this problem. "


    "It has to be solved."


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice: "the only way to solve this problem is to use poison to fight poison. So tomorrow morning, I plan to arrange for people to arrest some of the people in Wulei city. As long as someone has come to attack us, then we should kill the people of Wulei city. I just don''t believe it. These damned Dalits dare to attack. "


    "It''s no use."


    Ji Mu, however, shook his head.


    Mahasaro said, "why?"


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "the army led by the city leader has entered the territory of Wulei city. Along the way, we passed through two villages. However, these two villages are empty, and there is no common people. We didn''t even find a grain of food. "


    "It can be seen from this that Zhang Xiu adopted the means of strengthening the wall and clearing away the wild."


    "Withdraw all the people.""And all the food."


    "The reason why Zhang Xiu did this is to prevent us from catching the people, and at the same time to prevent us from robbing the people''s food. Now, it''s too late for us to think about catching the people and seizing food. "


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "we also use the common people to threaten Zhang Xiu, or threaten to attack our people in Wulei city. In the current situation, we can''t do it at all."


    "Alas..."


    Mahasaro felt sorry.


    When he thought about it carefully, it was true. The Sentinels he sent out to inquire about the news sent back about the people in Wulei city. All the villages were deserted.


    This angered mahasaro.


    Mahasaro had no way in his heart, so he thought about it for a while and then continued: "well, since we can''t capture the people. Then, let''s leave it alone for the time being. We''d better leave now. It''s not too late now. It''s easy to be found if we evacuate now. When it''s late at night, I''ll leave the camp quietly with my army. "


    Ji Mu said: "it''s right that the city Lord arranged it. It''s really early to leave now. A little later, we quietly left the former camp. However, it is also necessary to instruct the people guarding the camp not to take the initiative and avoid ambush. "


    Mahasaro said, "I''ll make it clear."


    They chatted and talked about the next war. As time went by, towards the early hours of the morning, both mahasaro and Jimu were still in high spirits. They really had to separate at night, so mahasaro was very excited.


    Mahasaro said, "Jimu, let''s go. Let''s evacuate."


    "Yes


    Ji Mu also responded immediately.


    "Dong! Dong


    Suddenly, outside the camp, I suddenly thought of the drum fighting. This kind of drum sound, drum rumble, broke the silence of the night, so that all the blue city soldiers in the camp immediately got up from the chaos and quickly gathered together.


    Mahasaro heard it, too.


    Originally, he was ready to evacuate, but now, mahasaro could not evacuate at all. He had to organize his soldiers to resist, so mahasaro quickly walked out of the camp and went to the gate of the camp.

 Chapter 1307

    Mahasaro and Jimu come to the gate of the camp. At the moment, the troops in the camp have quickly assembled. One by one, these armies were drowsy and tired.


    During the day, the group of people are on their way quickly, and they don''t have much time to rest. In particular, on the way, they were constantly harassed, and the soldiers in the army were very tired.


    After sleeping at night, it is already a sound sleep.


    But I didn''t expect that when I was sleeping in the middle of the night, I heard the drums outside the camp. This drum rumble, so that the rest of the soldiers in the army, dare not continue to rest, all rubbing sour dry eyes, came to the camp gate.


    One by one, but listless.


    Although the soldiers in the camp looked at the sound of the battle drum. But now, outside the camp, it''s quiet.


    It''s as if the drums didn''t exist before.


    Mahasaro frowned.


    He has planned to take part of the soldiers out of the team, quietly detour to no mine city. However, the sound of the drum at night disrupted his plan and made his plan fail.


    Ji Mu stood aside. He looked carefully for a while and said, "Lord, in my opinion, the sound of war drums outside is not the sound of attack. Only a small number of people, or a small number of troops from Wulei City, harassed. To do so is to disturb our army and make it impossible for the soldiers to have a good rest. "


    Mahasaro nodded and said, "it''s possible that what Ji Mu said is true."


    He was angry before, but after Ji Mu reminded him, he waved and said, "the whole army will listen to the order and continue to rest."


    The soldiers assembled in the array dispersed separately.


    Mahasaro and Jimu did not stay at the gate of the camp, but returned to their own accounts.


    Mahasaro looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Jimu, if there is no one outside our camp to harass us. Well, it is possible to withdraw some of the troops. But now, there are people in ambush outside the camp. Once we leave the team with 100000 people, there will be a lot of noise. When the news leaks, there will be no surprise effect. What are your views and plans for this? "


    Ji Mu said: "Lord, this is not a big problem. There are as many as 300000 people in our camp, covering a vast area. Even if there''s someone out there, it''s impossible to find out. So now, we just need to choose a place to leave. It''s not difficult for the army to leave. "


    "That''s true!"


    This is the truth, mahasaro thought.


    They talked about the current situation and the current situation. Unconsciously, half an hour passed. At this time, mahasaro said, "it''s already this point, and there''s no sound outside. It is estimated that the thief who came to harass has left. Now, it''s our chance. Jimu, let''s go. Follow me and mobilize troops. We''ll evacuate immediately. "


    "No problem!"


    Ji Mu also stood up and answered.


    "Dong! Dong


    The drums of war began to ring from outside the camp.


    The rapid sound of war drums reverberated inside and outside the camp, in addition to the sound of countless people shouting. It was at this time that the soldiers who were resting in the camp did not dare to delay. They quickly got up from the warm blanket, rubbed their eyes again and came to the gate of the camp to gather.


    Sighs, one after another.


    The voices of discussion are constantly ringing out.


    The faces of the soldiers in the army were full of helplessness. They are sleeping soundly and dreaming. Unexpectedly, all of a sudden, there was a drum sound. Because of the fear of the enemy''s attack, all the soldiers gathered quickly.


    After hearing this, mahasaro''s face was convulsed and helpless.


    Here we go again!


    Son of a bitch, he was just about to leave the camp when the drums started again.


    Damn it!


    Mahasaro was extremely angry and almost collapsed. Because in today''s situation, it is impossible for mahasaro to sit back and ignore him, worried that if the army were to kill him? In fact, it is difficult to judge between the virtual and the real. They are all of one mind.


    So mahasaro didn''t dare to gamble.


    Mahasaro and Jimu rush to the gate of the camp again. But as soon as they got to the gate of the camp and waited for a long time, they suddenly found that the shouting outside the camp and the sound of war drums had disappeared, not to mention one or two attacking enemies. They didn''t even see each other.


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice: "these damned people of no thunder city must have deliberately created chaos and did it on purpose. They don''t want to let our soldiers rest."


    Ji Mu said: "what the city master said is true. Under the current situation, I also think that this is an attack by the people of Wulei city. It is intended to disturb our sense of propriety and make us restless so that the soldiers can''t have a good rest."


    Mahasaro''s eyes narrowed. After thinking about it, he ordered: "messenger!""Yes


    Answered the messenger of mahasaro.


    Mahasaro said in a high voice: "outside our camp, there are enemies who are wantonly harassing and making trouble. Next, if there are more fighting drums, shouts and shouts of killing, no one can get up and go on sleeping without orders. "


    "Yes


    When the herald gets the order, go to pass the order immediately.


    With the departure of the herald, mahasaro''s face was dignified.


    In this situation, the situation is very bad.


    A little carelessness may lead to trouble.


    Soon, the soldiers gathered in the army dispersed and returned to the camp to have a rest. After all the soldiers left, mahasaro did not leave, still looking at the darkness outside the camp.


    Mahasaro clenched his fists, his eyes sparkled with anger. He lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Jimu, how many people are there outside the camp?"


    Ji Mu looked up at mahasaro.


    Didn''t you analyze it just now?


    Ji Mu thinks that there is no Qin army outside the camp, but the people of Wulei City harass them and do not let the soldiers rest.


    However, Ji Mu didn''t hate mahasaro either. He just patiently explained, "Lord, in my opinion, outside the camp, there are just some common people. These few people, carrying out Zhang Xiu''s intention, came to harass us. So, you don''t have to worry about it. In my opinion, we still have to leave. "


    "Yes, I have to leave!"


    Mahasaro spoke solemnly. He immediately said, "come on, tell ginalo to come."


    Ginalo is mahasaro''s confidant.


    He was nearly 40 years old, with a sharp figure and triangular eyes, which made him feel gloomy and spicy. After a while, jinnaluo came to the gate of the camp. He hugged his fist and said, "Lord of the city!"


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice: "jinnaro, the city leader, with 100000 soldiers, left overnight and took another road to Wulei city. Now, you are in command of the remaining 200000 elite, and you will continue to go to Wulei city with your troops. "


    When jinnaluo heard the words, he frowned and said in a deep voice, "Lord of the city, I don''t think it''s necessary to divide the troops. Although we have been repeatedly obstructed, in fact, they are all superficial and have no substantial impact on us. Once our forces are divided, we will become two forces and our strength will be weakened. On the contrary, we will be easily taken advantage of by others. "


    Mahasaro shook his head and said, "no, the Lord of this city has divided his forces to surprise Wulei city. I''ve decided that you don''t have to persuade me any more. You just need to carry out the order. "


    When jinnaluo heard the words, he said no more.


    Anyway, mahasaro is the Lord of the city. What he decides is to carry out.


    After the arrangement, mahasaro left the camp quietly with Ji Mu. He went back to the camp with 100000 troops and left the camp quietly and went to the direction of Wulei city from another road.

 Chapter 1308

    No thunder city, Lord''s mansion.


    Today''s city Lord''s family are all ready to fight with mahasaro. It''s about the future of qinlei city. It''s about the foundation of the future. Because if this battle can be won, it will be very easy and not very difficult to capture the city.


    Today, there are countless news sent to the Lord''s mansion every day.


    It''s all about intercepting the blue city army.


    When Zhang Xiu learned that mahasaro''s army was ambushed by mines and hit by stone balls, he was also very happy. Because the whole people of Wulei city have been involved.


    This is what Zhang Xiu hopes to see and what Zhang Xiu hopes to achieve.


    Towards noon, Zhang Xiu had been busy all morning, stretched out and stood up to have a rest.


    At this time, Guo Jia came in in a hurry. After standing and saluting, Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, the army of LAN''s city is less than three days away from our Wulei city. If the other party is on the way at full speed, I''m afraid it will arrive in about two days. Now, don''t we resist and let the other side get close to us and prepare for the war in Wulei city? "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "nature is impossible! If the other party is allowed to kill in Wulei City, it will have a great impact on us. For the time being, let the other side continue to move forward for a certain distance. Tomorrow morning, we''ll send troops again


    Guo Jia said: "if your majesty has a decision, I will not say much."


    Zhang Xiu said: "this time, even the number of troops in LAN''s city is large. However, if they come all the way and do not occupy the right time, place and people, they will definitely be defeated. "


    Guo Jia said: "I agree with you."


    "Step on it! Step on it


    There was another rush of footsteps.


    But Wang Yue came in in a hurry. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he said: "Your Majesty, I just got the message from the royal guards. As for LAN''s city, an army quietly divided its troops to kill Wu Lei city from another road. "


    With these words, Wang Yue elaborated on the situation.


    The earliest news, in fact, was discovered by local people. After the people found out, they immediately contacted the royal guards. In this way, the news was transmitted to Wang Yue level by level.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu put a smile on her lips and said, "I didn''t expect that the army of LAN''s city would dare to separate out 100000 people and go straight to LAN''s city. Since the other side is taking the path, especially such a rare road. Then it can be inferred that Ji Mu must be in it. Because Ji Mu is familiar with the area of Wulei city. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    After a pause, a light flashed in Guo Jia''s eyes and said: "Your Majesty, I think we now know that the other side''s troops are divided into two ways. Then, we can take this opportunity to calculate Ji Jimu''s army. The other side is just one hundred thousand. Such a force seems to be powerful. But in fact, it''s not impeccable. "


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "do you want to be filial


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, my minister''s plan is to make the best of everything. Originally, according to your Majesty''s plan, the army left Wulei city early tomorrow morning and went to the front line to resist the army of Lanshi city. But now, I think we can adjust our plan and send troops now. In this way, after the news comes out, we can create a sign that Wulei city is now an empty city. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said: "you mean to use the situation that the city without thunder is empty to calculate Ji Mu."


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "well, how do you plan for the specific plan? It''s not easy to calculate Ji Mu''s 100000 troops in Wulei city. "


    With a confident smile on her face, Guo Jia said slowly, "Your Majesty, I think so..."


    Immediately, Guo Jia said a detailed plan.


    After elaborating the whole plan, Guo Jiacai said: "the focus of this battle is here in Wulei city. As long as there is a breakthrough in Wulei City, it will be very easy to defeat the remaining 200000 troops in Lanshi city. "


    After hearing Guo Jia''s plan, Zhang Xiu also looked in agreement and said, "it''s true, but it''s not impossible for us to calculate each other when the army of LAN''s city is not on guard."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "even, it should be relatively easy."


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, do you agree with this plan?"


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    Guo Jia had expectations in his eyes and said, "well, I''ll wait and see. This battle should be the most interesting. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "it must be as you wish."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu made arrangements. His four armies, led by Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan, left Wulei city in a mighty way and headed southwest to meet the troops of Lan City.


    Zhang Xiu was also there when she went out, and she made a special appearance.


    The army left in great numbers.


    Only after Zhang Xiu walked out of the way, she took Guo Jia back. With the withdrawal of Zhang Xiu, there are 3000 soldiers. For an army of more than 100000 people, the strength of more than 3000 people is really insignificant.So Zhang Xiu easily disappeared and returned to Wulei city.


    When Zhang Xiu quietly returned, the 100000 troops led by mahasaro on the other side were marching fast along a path that was rarely seen. There are few people walking on this road, and the road is quite difficult, but the road shortens a lot of distance.


    When mahasaro led the army on his way, he was still concerned about the situation of Wulei city.


    After all, the sentinel was sent out.


    When the team led by mahasaro was one day away from Wulei City, there was a flying sentry horse running back to mahasaro''s side. The sentry turned over and dismounted, reporting: "Lord, no thunder city has sent troops. Zhang Xiu led all the troops of Wulei city and left Wulei city to meet our army. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When mahasaro heard this, he couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of pride.


    Laughter, full of joy.


    Zhang Xiu left Wulei city with the army, which means that the rear of Zhang Xiu is empty, and it''s easy for him to capture Wulei city. All the food, weapons and other materials of Zhang Xiu are in Wulei city. Once Wulei city is lost, Zhang Xiu becomes rootless Ping. Even if Zhang Xiu''s army is good at fighting, it can''t last long.


    Mahasaro will win this battle.


    At this moment, mahasaro''s face was full of determination. He said with a smile: "Jimu, you will soon be in charge of Wulei city again and become the leader of Wulei city."


    Ji Mu said with a smile: "I can go back to Wulei city again and take charge of Wulei city again. That''s because of the help of the city master. Since then, I have no thunder city, and I''m willing to take the lead in LAN''s city. "


    Mahasaro immediately laughed.


    What he wants is this effect. If Ji Mu doesn''t make a statement, after he wins Wulei City, mahasaro will not let Ji Mu take charge of Wulei city. This is mahasaro''s calculation.


    As for why Ji Mu is still the leader of the city.


    It is because today''s Wulei city is not peaceful. With the abolition of slaves and nobles, it is not easy to restore slavery and aristocracy. It must be suppressed by iron and blood policy. Ji Mu is the best choice.


    So mahasaro agreed to let Jimu be the leader of Wulei city.


    Ji Mu suddenly said: "Lord of the city, do you think Zhang Xiu left suddenly


    When mahasaro heard the words, he gave a sneer, which was ironic. His expression was indifferent, said: "brother, you are afraid of Zhang Xiu, so you are afraid of Zhang Xiu? There are more than 300000 troops in LAN''s city in Wulei city. As the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu can''t wait to die in Wulei city. She will certainly attack. "


    "Zhang Xiu should have sent troops."


    "It''s perfectly normal, too."


    "Why are you here? There''s cheating. What''s more, let''s take the path to Wulei City, only heaven knows, you know, I know. Besides, Zhang Xiu doesn''t know. "


    "Since Zhang Xiu doesn''t know, there is no such thing as cheating."


    Mahasaro patted Ji Mu on the shoulder and said in a positive way: "you have to have tiger strength to be a man. If there is no such strength, there will be no courage and momentum. You are still afraid of being beaten. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Ji Mu also felt suspicious and replied with a smile.


    If Ji Mu had not been in charge of Wulei city for more than ten years, he would not have known about this road. If Zhang Xiu had just arrived at Wulei City, it would be impossible for her to know. Moreover, they would have made a sudden decision to send troops, let alone be discovered.


    "Send the order down and March at full speed."


    Mahasaro once again ordered that he could not wait to capture Wulei city. Zhang Xiu bewitches the people of Wulei city and makes thousands of people harass him, causing great disturbance to him.


    This is the anger of mahasaro.


    Mahasaro wants to take down Zhang Xiu, and then humiliates her, making her life worse than death.


    It was mahasaro''s decision.


    The army was on its way, and even near noon, the army did not rest. After eating the dry food, he went on his way and ran to the direction of Wulei city.

 Chapter 1309

    No thunder city on April day, without the bustling scene of the past, the bustling scene of people coming and going is no longer there. Because today''s no thunder city has sealed off the city gate, and no one can get in or out. The golden sunshine falls on Wulei City, making the whole Wulei city seem to be covered with a layer of golden gauze.


    In the South Gate of Wulei City, the person in charge of guarding is pound.


    Although Gao Lan left with his soldiers, pound returned with Zhang Xiu.


    However, the number of soldiers on the top of the city is not large, only more than a thousand. Such a force is not particularly strong in guarding the mineless city. Once a big army comes, Pound''s force is not enough.


    But Zhang Xiu is no longer in the city.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is near the south of the city.


    This area is open enough to accommodate thousands of soldiers.


    Beside Zhang Xiu, there is Guo Jia.


    In addition, there are many cannons in this area. Roughly speaking, there are nearly a thousand guns here.


    This is all the cannons of Zhang Xiu.


    All the cannons under Zhang Xiu''s command were mobilized here. The cannons are arranged separately, but the angles of many cannons are different. Different angles lead to different ranges and shooting locations.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s trump card.


    It''s the card to deal with the army of Lan Shi City. Now Zhang Xiu is ready, waiting for the army of Lan Shi City. As long as the other side came, then in the end, it must be reduced to cannon fodder.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a sentry came running.


    The sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, the army of LAN''s city has arrived. It''s less than a quarter of an hour away from Wulei city. A quarter of an hour at the most, it will arrive. "


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "explore again!"


    After a salute, the sentry turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Guo Jia and said, "fengxiao, has this area in the south of the city been settled?"


    Guo Jia said with a smile, "don''t worry, your majesty. It''s settled. Today, there are no more people in the south of the city. After all, people were not allowed to go in and out of Wulei city before, so we can''t leak information when we move people away. "


    "That''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Now everything is ready, only the east wind.


    While Zhang Xiu was waiting, on the official road outside Wulei City, a hundred thousand troops led by mahasaro and Jimu had already appeared on the official road and came to Wulei city. The head of a hundred thousand people is moving. It''s as black as a cloud. It makes people feel numb at a glance.


    The leader is mahasaro.


    He led the army to kill, looking at the city without thunder, with a bright smile on his face.


    No thunder city, he''s here.


    Mahasaro looked at Ji Mu and said, "you see, we have arrived at Wulei city. Now, if we want to capture Wulei City, we must win it in one go. Because today''s no thunder city has no defensive power at all. "


    Ji Mu said, "what the LORD said is true."


    Now, he also agrees with mahasaro''s judgment. After all, along the way, the sentinel sent back the news that Zhang Xiu''s army is far away from Wulei City, and will soon meet with the 200000 troops led by jinnaluo.


    This is why Ji Mu is relieved.


    In a short time, mahasaro led his army to the South Gate of Wulei city. He looked up at the tower of the city and exclaimed, "listen to the people on the tower, my official is mahasaro, the Lord of the city of Langshi. Open the gate immediately, otherwise, the Lord of the city will be killed."


    "Don''t think about it, mahasaro


    Pound''s face was solemn.


    He hurled a voice: "even if the strength of my city is not enough, but the city of my city is solid, and there is a large army on the tower. You can''t break the city. "


    Mahasaro immediately sneered: "ha ha ha, do you really think the city master doesn''t know the reality of Wulei city? Today''s no thunder city has no army. Zhang Xiu led all the troops and left Wulei city. "


    "General, it''s not good. The soldiers on the tower began to run away. "


    The sound of panic, from the city floor.


    "General, there''s another escape."


    There''s another sound.


    The sound of panic came out one after another, so that after the sound came out, the expression on mahasaro''s face was full of banter, and he laughed and said, "people stationed in the city, what else do you say there is a big army in town. It seems that there is no army of Zhang Xiu. You, the army on the upper floor of the city, have already known that they are invincible and have begun to flee by themselves. Now, how can you resist it? "


    Ji Mu is also smiling.


    He also agreed with mahasaro that Zhang Xiu took all the troops. Today''s no thunder city, even if there are troops, is only one or two thousand people. Such a force is not enough in front of 100000 troops. As long as a face-to-face killing, the army of blue''s city is enough to destroy the army stationed on the top of the city.Neither mahasaro nor Jimu doubted it.


    It was Zhang Xiu who took the army.


    They all think that taking Wulei city is a matter of course.


    Pound sneered in his heart. He was not afraid of mahasaro, but the play had to go on, so pound said in a voice: "mahasaro, it''s your business that you want to break the city of no thunder."


    "I''ve been ordered to garrison Wulei city. That''s my business. His majesty abolished the nobles and slaves, lifted the shackles, and saved us from fire and water. If you kill me, even if I am defeated, you will fight to the end, and you will fight to the last soldier. "


    "I will fight to the end."


    Pound''s resounding reply.


    After his words came to mahasaro''s ears, the smile on mahasaro''s face was even more intense. His focus is not on Pound''s impassioned words, but on Pound''s saying that he wants to fight to the end and fight to the last soldier. This shows that the force of Wulei city is empty, and Zhang Xiu is really leading the troops to leave.


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice, "people on the tower, open the gate immediately. My Lord, I can spare your life. If you want to fight to the end, you will die. "


    "Better die than fall," pound said


    "Well, I''ll die."


    With a cool look on his face, mahasaro raised his hand and ordered, "attack, break the city for the Lord."


    "Kill


    Mahasaro''s army, attack.


    The mighty army, with a total of 20000 elites, has already made a direct attack on the city gate. After a short time, the attacking army of 20000 arrived at the top of the city, quickly built the ladder and began to climb up.


    Mahasaro didn''t think that the weak garrison could resist his army. So when attacking a city, they didn''t even prepare for a simple siege weapon like a catapult.


    The mighty soldiers arrived and attacked quickly.


    One by one soldiers along the ladder, soon killed on the tower.


    At this time, there were not many garrisons on the tower.


    Pound just led to resist for a while, just like he couldn''t carry it. Under the support of the soldiers, he quickly left the battlefield and left the South Gate of Wulei city.


    The soldiers of LAN''s city seized the south gate, opened the city and took control of the gate.


    Mahasaro saw the city gate open, and his face showed a bright smile.


    It''s so easy to capture Wulei city.


    Of course, in mahasaro''s view, although it was easy to capture the city, it was also a proper early plan. If he doesn''t plan properly and doesn''t arrange a surprise attack on Wulei City, it''s not easy to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army from the front and then kill Wulei city.


    All this, it is the surprise soldiers who have played a role.

 Chapter 1310

    Mahasaro won the victory, holding his head high, carrying his hands, with a look of complacency, leading the army under his command, went straight into the city. For mahasaro, today''s first priority is to master the city of no thunder and control the food and equipment in his hands. In this way, Zhang Xiu in the front line was not only cut off from the rear, but also unable to get food supplies.


    Mahasaro is now determined to win.


    He won the battle.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, still duckweed in the water, will be defeated.


    So mahasaro led the army and went on down the street towards the granary. When the mahasaro army began to go to the granary, all the people were in place where Zhang Xiu and Guo Jia were.


    Zhang Xiu has learned that mahasaro has entered the city.


    Now, he is waiting for the chance to fight, and he wants to work hard to destroy the army led by mahasaro.


    Whether it''s Zhang Xiu or Guo Jia, they all have expectations on their faces.


    Guo Jiaxiu and Zhang Zixiu fell down with the passing of time.


    "Whew!"


    All of a sudden, a loud arrow took off.


    In fact, the distance from Zhang Xiu and others is less than three miles.


    This position is precisely within the range of the cannon.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, he immediately ordered: "everyone has it. Fire!"


    All Gunners have to order that the shells be loaded and ignited at once.


    "Ho! Ho


    Lead by lead, burn fast.


    Boom!!


    The first sound came out.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    Immediately after that, the sound of guns came out one after another, and a thousand guns fired. The continuous sound even made the whole area vibrate.


    Each shell broke through the air, quickly cut through the sky, moving in a parabolic way in the air. In a twinkling of an eye, it had already reached the sky of the army of blue city, and then fell quickly.


    The army under mahasaro is 100000.


    Across the wide road.


    Because there are no houses on both sides of this area, it is a broad official road, so the 100000 troops of mahasaro are all gathered together and march forward. So that at a glance, the crowd, a black, very shocking.


    In the distance of this position, there was a special Qin sentry.


    The sentry is in charge of sending signals and arrows.


    Once the arrow is launched, thousands of guns will be fired in unison to bombard the soldiers of Lanshi city who enter the gunfire area. At this moment, the sentinel saw the shells flying in the distance, and his face looked happy.


    Finally!


    The cannonball finally came.


    But in the army of the city of Lanchester, some soldiers found the shells falling from the air and cried out, "no, there are shells. Run away, run away!"


    A cry, like the water suddenly hit a big stone, broke the silence.


    "Run


    Soldiers followed and cried out.


    It''s just that they want to escape, but the area around here is shrouded in the range of the cannon. A thousand shells, each shell set the bombing site, so that the army of Lancaster City, are shrouded in it. Even if the army of Lancaster city wants to escape and break through, it is impossible in a short time.


    When the first shell landed in the crowd, after the explosion, the ground vibrated and the soil flew. Countless soldiers were blown to the ground and were killed immediately.


    Boom!!!


    Dense shells, falling.


    Like raindrops of shells landing and exploding, the whole ground area can only see boiling soil, flying corpses, and continuous screams.


    No matter where the army of the city of Lancaster was, it was bombed.


    The whole area, it''s a sea of fire.


    This kind of explosion lasted for a long time before it ended. After the explosion, there was a moment of silence around.


    Immediately, the scream came out.


    There are countless dead bodies on the ground, but many people are seriously injured.


    Under the bombardment of these cannons, even a hundred thousand people, but under the dense cannons, they could not resist and were completely submerged by the sea of fire of cannons.


    Among the bodies, several were pushed away.


    See mahasaro and Jimu, out of the crowd, two people are extremely embarrassed, dirty. There was a look of panic on both faces.


    They lost!


    A hundred thousand people are defeated.


    Originally thought, into the city without thunder, is easily cut off the back of Zhang Xiu. But now it seems that Zhang Xiu has been in Wulei city for a long time, laying the net, deliberately to ambush them.


    "Retreat, retreat!"


    Mahasaro gave a loud order.


    There were also some soldiers around him. A few soldiers who had not been killed by the explosion also quickly gathered around him. When they met at mahasaro''s side, they covered mahasaro and Jimu and wanted to go back the same way and withdraw from Wulei city.Under the bombardment of the cannons, there was little left.


    The troops around him are now in good health, and there are less than 800 people. It must be impossible to continue fighting. In particular, Zhang Xiu laid an ambush in Wulei City, there must be a backhand, so we must leave quickly.


    "Why, I want to leave when I come. Don''t panic, just stay. "


    Suddenly, on the official road on the retreat Road, a team of people appeared behind. In this group of people, the most prominent is Zhang Xiu. He had come to the rear from where the cannon was, and had taken the retreat of mahasaro.


    His eyes fell on the front, looking at the direction of mahasara, he said: "mahasara, I really didn''t expect that. You actually came here in person. If you hadn''t given your name when you attacked the city, I wouldn''t have known you. "


    Mahasaro sighed.


    What did he do when he attacked the city? If he didn''t say it, no one would know his identity.


    It''s impossible for Zhang Xiu to know him.


    Now, it''s hard to escape.


    Zhang Xiu turned her eyes and saw Ji Mu beside mahasaro. She said with a smile, "Oh, so Ji Mu is also here. I attacked Wulei city before. Unexpectedly, you escaped. Now, I''ll give you another chance to escape. "


    Ji Mu has a bitter face.


    Now it''s not the same as before. It''s impossible to escape.


    When mahasaro looked around, he saw that there were not many people in Zhang Xiu''s position. He gritted his teeth, pulled out his sword and ordered: "sons, there are not many troops around Zhang Xiu. The army under his command has left Wulei city. Now, if we go out, we can escape from Wulei city. Kill me and get out


    "Kill


    One by one, the soldiers in LAN''s city took out their swords and launched a charge.


    Especially at this time, some stunned soldiers stood up and joined the people around mahasaro. So that there were more and more soldiers around mahasaro. In a short time, there were more than a thousand soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldiers of LAN''s city who had been killed and gave a cold smile.


    Mahasaro still wants to resist.


    It''s just too much.


    As soon as he waved, pound led the army to kill him. Today, pound is not leading 1000 Qin soldiers, but 3000 elite soldiers brought back by Zhang Xiu.


    These three thousand elite soldiers have strong fighting capacity and strong will to fight. Especially when they saw that the 100000 troops in LAN''s city were defeated, their hearts were even more agitated. After they rushed up one by one, they swung their swords and slashed.


    When the two armies met, the soldiers of mahasaro retreated face to face and were directly crushed.


    These soldiers could not stabilize the situation and retreated again and again.


    Pound rushed forward with his sword. His target was not the ordinary soldiers of Lancaster, but the mahasaro hiding behind. So he held the knife and rushed forward.


    "Those who stand in my way will die!"


    "Die for me!"


    Pound''s constant roar, sword waving, blood spraying, a body, have fallen to the ground. In a short time, pound killed through the formation of the blue city soldiers. He had already gone straight to mahasaro with his knife in his hand.

 Chapter 1311

    Mahasaro was in a panic.


    I''m afraid.


    He stepped back two steps and ordered, "go ahead, kill this man for me."


    Pound, however, had no strong weapon in front of him. Even if mahasaro arranged for the soldiers to resist, they could not bear Pound''s attack and were killed one after another.


    "Hiss!"


    Mahasaro looked in his eyes and took a cool breath.


    This man is too fierce.


    Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer, mahasaro was still unwilling and said again, "Amadeus, you go up to resist. It''s better to kill this Liao and avenge the dead. "


    Amati, the leader of mahasaro''s personal guard. There were explosions before. It was aimaiti who threw mahasara to the ground for the first time, and then soldiers were lying around to protect mahasara, thus protecting mahasara''s safety.


    Aimaiti did not say much. He rushed up with a sword.


    He is very big.


    The whole person''s skin is bronze with bright eyes and sharp eyebrows.


    His strength is very strong, and it is extraordinary to be the leader of mahasaro''s personal guard. Aimaiti was angry when he saw Pound''s killing, because pound was killing the soldiers of Lancaster city and his comrades.


    "Death


    Aimaiti drinks low.


    With this low roar, aimaiti stepped forward, and the man had already reached pound. At this moment, aimaiti leaned back slightly and cut off with both hands.


    A knife falls, fast as light.


    The blade broke through the air, and there was a sharp howling sound, which was very shocking.


    "At last a decent one has come."


    Pound grinned, his knife turned, and the blade hit aimaiti''s blade. The two weapons collided with each other, and the place where they collided was full of sparks. However, aimaiti''s face changed greatly.


    Because when this impact, the great power comes from the other side''s blade. For a moment, aimaiti couldn''t stop the rapid and violent force.


    Even aimaiti released his strength, he also exerted himself quickly to stabilize the boiling Qi and blood. However, aimaiti''s center of gravity could not be stabilized, and he staggered back at his feet. He took three steps in a row to stabilize his figure.


    But pound has come.


    For pound, a fierce general with rich fighting consciousness and incomparable combat effectiveness. Pound saw the possibility of pursuing at the moment when amatti retreated, so as soon as amatti retreated, he followed.


    Just at the time of aimaiti station, pound cut off again.


    A knife, sealed the retreat of aimaiti.


    A knife forced amatti to fight.


    A knife, but also just fierce no cast.


    Aimaiti held the knife in both hands, held the handle tightly, and then went up.


    "Dang!"


    There was a loud crash.


    This time, the impact is far more violent than before, and even the impact place has a smell of scorch. The splashing Mars shows the violent impact.


    Aimaiti was shocked directly, and his Qi and blood churned. He felt that as soon as his throat was sweet, a mouthful of blood sprayed out. When he held the tiger''s mouth of the sword, it was directly torn. Under the severe pain, he almost couldn''t hold the handle.


    "Kick! Kick


    Aimaiti kept retreating.


    His face had turned pale, and there was a look of horror in his eyes. To know the strength of aimaiti, it is still very strong. But in Pound''s place, he couldn''t see enough and was beaten.


    Aimaiti retreated five steps before he stabilized himself. However, as soon as he made his final stop, before he had time to adjust his position and center of gravity, pound caught up again and fell again.


    This knife is as quick as thunder.


    More powerful.


    Aimaiti reluctantly swung his knife to meet him, but with the impact of the blade, the next moment, if aimaiti''s body was struck by lightning, the knife in his hand was knocked out immediately. Aimaiti saw that Pound''s knife continued to fall, but he didn''t know it well. With years of rich experience, he quickly sidestepped to avoid his key.


    "Yes


    The falling blade didn''t cut aimaiti''s key, but it was on the left shoulder. A knife fell, Qi Qi shoulder off, red blood, suddenly like a spring splashing out.


    "Ah


    The shrill scream came from aimaiti.


    He had a ferocious look on his face, showing endless pain. Even under this trauma, amatti could no longer stand firm. He staggered back, and his big body fell to the ground.


    Pound strides forward and cuts down. Aimaiti turned over in pain and avoided the knife. Then he quickly got up and wanted to run away, but pound caught up with him again and cut him off.


    "Yes


    The knife fell on amatti''s neck.


    A knife down, blood splashing.When the head and body split into two parts, the round head fell to the ground, rolling for a while and then stopped. That pair of eyes, full of pain and unwilling, but the look has been dim.


    After pound killed aimaiti, his eyes turned, and his sharp eyes fell on mahasaro again. At this moment, mahasaro shivered and stepped back two steps.


    How terrible!


    He was frightened by pound.


    Pound grinned and showed his white teeth. He didn''t care about the rest. He rushed forward again with the knife in his hand. Only at this time, there was a precedent of killing Amadeus, and no one came to stop him. Pound soon killed mahasaro.


    "Die


    Pound roared and slashed.


    Mahasaro couldn''t escape. He could only block his sword.


    With a bang, the sword in mahasaro''s hand was knocked out. As the blade continued to descend, mahasaro could not avoid it. He had to close his eyes and wait to die.


    But when the blade was about to fall on mahasaro, Pound''s blade turned, the blade turned outward, and the back of the blade hit mahasaro.


    "Bang!"


    Mahasaro was hit by his body and fell to the ground. In particular, the body that had been hit felt extremely painful, which made it difficult for mahasaro to even stand up.


    "I surrender!"


    Jimu, not far away, saw the tragic situation of mahasaro, even saved resistance and surrendered directly.


    He doesn''t want to be beaten.


    I can''t escape anyway.


    It''s down.


    With a bright smile on his face, pound waved his hand, and some soldiers came forward and quickly grabbed mahasalo and Jimu. With Pound''s strength, he can kill them. But the value of these two people alive is greater, so he caught them alive.


    Pound took the two men and immediately surrendered.


    One by one, the soldiers in LAN''s city who were still resisting or fleeing, when they saw that mahasaro had been arrested, they all put down their arms and surrendered without any resistance.


    In less than half an hour, the fighting on the battlefield was completely over.


    Zhang Xiu stood not far away, looking at the corpses of soldiers in LAN''s city. A trace of intolerance passed over his face, but in the twinkling of an eye, it had been replaced by firmness.


    These people really died miserably.


    But if Zhang Xiu is defeated in this battle, then everything in Wulei city will come to nothing. Even if Zhang Xiu had to eat a lot of fruit, he would not even know what to do.


    Zhang Xiu is responsible for her soldiers and the people under her rule. Even if she turns into a butcher, Zhang Xiu will not hesitate. So Zhang Xiu didn''t feel guilty for the huge killing.


    This is war!


    There must be casualties!

 Chapter 1312

    When the war was over, Zhang Xiu asked people to clean up the battlefield. Under the bombardment of thousands of cannons, the army led by mahasaro was almost dead and wounded, with bodies lying on the ground. When all the bodies were disposed of and all the prisoners were in custody, it was evening and it was getting dark.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is just idle.


    When he returned to the city master''s residence, Guo Jia followed him and said, "Your Majesty, we have captured mahasaro and Jimu in this battle. What will your majesty do with them?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "first, with the help of mahasaro, the army of Lanshi City forced to land on the front line. And then in the city of Ramsey, in front of all the people, kill mahasaro. As for Ji Mu, it''s useless to kill him directly. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    After a pause, Guo Jia said: "since your majesty wants to kill Ji Mu, you can send an order to kill Ji Mu in the morning outside the South Gate of Wulei City, so as to correct your hearing and hearing. Then his majesty will lead his troops to the front line. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "as filial piety says, it''s polite. Let''s do it like this."


    Guo Jia was ordered to turn around and prepare to go down.


    But at this time, a servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Ji Mu said he wanted to see you."


    Zhang Xiu said, "bring people in!"


    The servant got the order and immediately went to get people. Soon, Ji Mu was escorted into the hall. Today''s Ji Mu looks rather lonely. His hands are tied behind him by his backhand. When he gets to the hall, he kneels on the ground with a plop and looks awed.


    Ji Mu now knows his situation very well.


    He is in a very bad situation.


    Once Zhang Xiu does not accept him, he must be killed, so Ji Mu wants to save his life. As long as he survives, then everything is possible. What he lost is still possible to earn back.


    Ji Mu kowtowed his head to the ground and said, "sinner Ji Mu, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiu light way: "listen to a person say, you want to see me."


    "Yes


    Ji Mu said: "the sinner Ji Mu is willing to submit to his majesty. Please accept it."


    Zhang Xiu said: "you Jimu once served as the Lord of Wulei City, enslaved the people, and even became the enemy of Daqin. Today''s Wulei city is already in my hands. Even if you are obedient, it will not be of any use to me. On the contrary, if I kill you, I can set an example for thousands of people in Wulei city. You said, "why should I accept you?"


    Brush!


    Ji Mu''s face changed slightly.


    Listen to Zhang Xiu''s tone, it''s obvious that she is ready to kill him.


    Ji Mu''s heart, secretly happy, thanks to him in time, otherwise once he was dragged out to kill, he did not know how to die. Ji Mu took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I understand the situation of LAN''s city. I can help your majesty to capture the city of Lancaster


    Zhang Xiu still shook her head and said, "you know the city of Lanshi, but do you know mahasaro? In Wulei City, you know the situation of Wulei City, and even know to take the path to Wulei city. But in Lancaster City, you are much less valuable than mahasaro. So when you think about it, you don''t really have any value. "


    Gudong!


    Ji Mu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the look on his face was more frightened, because the more he talked with Zhang Xiu, the more he recognized Zhang Xiu''s determination to kill him.


    Ji Mulian said: "no, no, your majesty, I have value."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your value?"


    For Zhang Xiu, the value of Ji Mu''s death is even greater. So Zhang Xiu''s heart is determined to kill Ji Mu. A dead Ji Mu, in exchange for the complete change of Wulei City, can break the heart of some people hidden in the dark of Wulei city.


    Ji Mu''s eyes are rolling.


    He thought about the solution.


    If he didn''t say anything, he would surely die now.


    Ji Mu suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I know the situation of Peshawar. Even today''s ruling ministers in Peshawar are my former teachers. As long as the emperor does not kill me, then I can write a letter to ask the teacher to submit to the emperor. I am willing to help your majesty to wipe out the Kushan thoroughly. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t need it!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I don''t need your letter to enter the city of Peshawar. When I take the city of Lanchester, the army will go south and break the city of Peshawar. "


    Ji Mu listens to Zhang Xiu''s words, suddenly angry.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t give him a living.


    No matter what he said, Zhang Xiu didn''t let go, obviously determined to kill him.


    Ji Mu stood up, bit his teeth and roared: "Zhang Xiu, do you have to kill me? If you kill me, your army will never wipe out Kushan. My teacher will take revenge for me. Zhang Xiu, you will regret it. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I never regret what I do. Especially to kill you, I have no hesitation. People like you die in Wulei City, which is an account to the people of Wulei city. Since then, the people of Wulei city have been completely cut off from the past. Today''s people in Wulei city just need to do things in a down-to-earth way. ""You have to die!"


    Ji Mu tries his best to roar. He doesn''t want to die, but Zhang Xiu is determined to kill him. Ji Mu has no chance to escape.


    Zhang Xiu ordered: "drag it down!"


    With Zhang Xiu''s command, the soldiers came forward and quickly dragged Ji Mu back. At this time, Ji Mu has completely let go. He constantly curses Zhang Xiu and drinks and curses Zhang Xiu. Finally, Ji Mu was dragged down and detained in the camp.


    Zhang Xiu has no pity for Ji Mu.


    This kind of Kushan power, stay, that is to keep future trouble.


    No thunder city doesn''t need to surrender.


    What Wulei city needs is new life.


    Guo Jia didn''t stay any longer at this time, so he dismissed him and went to do his business.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the camp, thinking about the current situation of Wulei city. Today''s city without thunder is completely controlled by Zhang Xiu. It''s not polite to say that Zhang Xiu is really standing in guishuang now.


    Even if Zhang Xiu wants to attack Lan''s city, the people will support her.


    When Zhang Xiu was thinking about the follow-up war, another attendant came in and reported that if mahasaro asked to see him.


    Zhang Xiu is not missing, but also arranged to bring mahasaro. Today''s mahasaro looks like he''s broken up, slightly bent back, very uncomfortable.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t care about mahasara''s illness and said, "mahasara, what''s the important thing for you to come to see me?"


    Mahasaro said, "please, your majesty, let me live."


    Zhang Xiu mouth slightly up, light way: "you say, how do I want to release you to leave, or say, I now captured you, why do I want to release you to leave."

 Chapter 1313

    As soon as mahasaro''s eyes turned, he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to submit. As long as the emperor spared my life, I would like to go to the front line in person and order more than 200000 troops of Lanshi city to surrender. I''m sure your majesty can give me this opportunity. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I''m afraid I''ll give you a chance to escape. If you go to the front line, I''m afraid you''re a broken kite. It''s gone forever. Mahasaro, don''t treat everyone as a fool. It''s you who think you''re right that''s why you''re defeated. "


    Mahasaro''s face was stiff.


    To tell you the truth, he just said that he went to the front line to order the army of Lancaster city to surrender. In fact, he really had a fluke in his heart. In case Zhang Xiu releases people, he can take the opportunity to escape.


    As long as he returns to the army of LAN''s city, he can compete with Zhang Xiu again.


    After all, the Qin army was no more than 100000.


    Mahasaro took a deep breath and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, don''t worry. Since I am obedient, I am sincere. I''m going to order the army of blue city to surrender. I''m not going alone. You can ask someone to escort me. With your soldiers watching, I can''t escape even if I go to the front line. "


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I don''t need your persuasion to do anything. I can defeat the army of blue city. "


    Brush!


    Mahasaro''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words cut off his life.


    Obviously, Zhang Xiu wants to kill him. As for how and when to kill him, it depends on Zhang Xiu''s mood.


    Mahasaro clenched his teeth and continued: "Your Majesty, as the leader of the city, I have been in charge of the city for many years and know everything about the city. If the emperor accepts my surrender, he will not only surrender to the front line. In addition, the whole city of no thunder will follow the trend. Your majesty, it''s a chance for you to take the city without any effort. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I don''t need it!"


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "the LAN city I need is a broken Lan City, not today''s LAN city. You know the situation of Wulei city. Everything in Wulei city will be copied to Lanshi city. At that time, there will be no more aristocracy and slaves in the city under my administration. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When mahasaro heard the words, he burst out laughing.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the reason why you laugh is because you think that I can''t carry out the reform in LAN''s city, right? Unfortunately, blue city is destined to change. All the rotten nobles in LAN''s city will be swept to every corner, and they will be removed. "


    "You''re not going to succeed, you''re going to have to reform in Lancaster," said mahasaro. Then the whole Kushan, will temporarily put everything down, and then go all out to unite to deal with you. Then you will lose. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "what''s the fear of aristocratic Union? What these people have to face is not me, but the thousands of Kushan people. Just a group of decadent nobles are bound to be swept out. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "by the way, I''ll tell you a piece of news. Before that, the nobles of LAN''s city arranged Kunda as an assassin to come to Wulei city to assassinate me. "


    "Guess what, Kunda didn''t assassinate me when he arrived. Instead, he told me the situation of LAN''s city. Then, pretending that the assassination failed, he went back to the city of LAN and was ready to unite the people who wanted to fight against the nobles of LAN for me. "


    "I haven''t gone to the city of Lanchester yet."


    "I haven''t reformed in Lancaster city yet."


    "But now, there are people in LAN''s city who are willing to serve Daqin. It can be seen from this that what Daqin has done has won the hearts and minds of the people. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "with the support of thousands of people, I seem to have a sharp blade in my hand, which can blow the hair and break the hair. It''s enough to open every mountain and road, and there''s nothing to stop it."


    Mahasaro frowned.


    Kunda''s assassination of Zhang Xiu, he actually knows, after all, lahar arranged Kunda to assassinate, this is not a secret. But the problem is that Kunda''s assassination of Zhang Xiu is not a failure of the assassination, but a failure of the assassination.


    This shocked mahasaro.


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice, "no, it''s impossible. How can someone like Kunda not kill you. You must have done something to keep Kunda from assassinating you. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "people like you, mahasaro, will never know what the popular will is. The energy burst out by the common people is enough to overturn the whole world. So it''s normal for you to lose. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll tell you another piece of news."


    Mahasaro said, "what''s the news?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you lead the army to divide troops to take the path. In fact, my sentinel never found out. It''s the people in Wulei city who found out your whereabouts and then reported it to my royal guards. Therefore, I know that you led a hundred thousand troops to kill us, and then I transferred the troops under you to make the illusion of emptiness and let you enter smoothly. ""This, this..."


    Mahasaro''s eyes were wide open, and his face was full of disbelief.


    How is that possible?


    How is that possible?


    Their whereabouts were discovered by the untouchables in Wulei city. And these untouchables, they reported the news. If it were not for these untouchables, mahasaro would have quietly arrived at the city of no thunder and would have won.


    "Damn it, these damn pariahs."


    Mahasaro clenched his teeth and looked angry.


    His chest is also up and down.


    At this moment, mahasaro''s inner emotion is surging, which is even more unacceptable. The reason for his defeat is that the pariah found his whereabouts. If it wasn''t for these untouchables, he wouldn''t be defeated.


    All of a sudden, mahasaro''s throat was sweet, and a bloody smell rushed up. He opened his mouth and spewed out blood. He collapsed on the ground with an extremely withered look.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the fallen on the ground, like a dead dog like mahasara, coldly said: "mahasara, the pariah you identified is exactly the basis of your survival."


    "What you eat is provided by them."


    "You live, they build."


    "What you wear is what they weave."


    "Everything about you can''t do without these people. But you think you are superior. You also have one head and two eyes. Why are you more noble than others? "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "to tell you the truth, people like you don''t work hard when they throw them to places. You are the first to starve


    The sound of mahasaro''s mouth was more desolate.


    He was wrongly defeated.


    He was not reconciled to the defeat.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t have the heart to deal with mahasaro again. As soon as she brushed her sleeves, she ordered: "take the people down, so that she can be taken care of."


    "Yes


    The soldiers were ordered to escort mahasaro. Mahasaro was pressed down and detained with Ji Mu. Now, both of them are lonely.


    Ji Mu was angry when he looked at mahasara. At the beginning of the war, he had advised mahasara to be careful. But mahasaro was so conceited that he would not lose the battle.


    All this was caused by mahasaro''s underestimation of the enemy.


    It''s too late.


    Ji Mu thought that he was about to be executed, and his heart was not only lost, but also angry.

 Chapter 1314

    Ji Mu felt angry and said, "Lord, I didn''t expect you to lead more than 300000 troops. After the surprise attack, you were defeated in such a situation. Look at your wilting and heartbreaking appearance. It must be Zhang Xiu who wants to kill you when she sees you. "


    Mahasaro clenched his teeth and hummed: "Jimu, I''m heartbroken. Aren''t you a dead dog. Now I can''t live. You can''t live either. "


    Ji Mu said, "yes, I can''t live."


    Mahasaro said in a deep voice: "now, Jimu, have you ever regretted being the enemy of Zhang Xiu?"


    "No regrets!"


    Ji Mu shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiu is determined to abolish slaves and nobles. We and Zhang Xiu, from beginning to end, have no room for relaxation. Under such a premise, we and Zhang Xiu are naturally hostile. Therefore, I don''t regret being the enemy of Zhang Xiu. The only thing I regret is that I believe in garji and Prince kujiula. Otherwise, I will not be defeated easily. "


    Mahasaro shook his head and gave a bitter smile.


    Unfortunately, it''s too late.


    No matter how much you say at this time, it''s nothing to do.


    Ji Mu said in a deep voice: "I thought, first I pretended to be obedient to Zhang Xiu, and then I thought about the way to get away. But Zhang Xiu doesn''t give me a chance at all. He insists on killing people. "


    "Zhang Xiu is not a simple man. He is extremely smart and uses his weapons like a God. Not only that, he has a strong will and a clear goal. Such a person has no weakness at all. "


    "Vasudeva is dead."


    "The kusana is in a mess."


    "Today''s Kushan is a mess. Even if there is a certain strength, it can not stop Zhang Xiu''s army. In the end, the great Kushan will be reduced to the territory under Zhang Xiu. "


    Ji Mu sighed: "unfortunately, I can''t see everything in the future. In the past, it was my Ji Mu who killed people. Now, it''s someone else''s turn to decide my life and death. It''s really Fengshui''s turn


    Mahasaro snorted and said, "Jimu, you praise Zhang Xiu so much. However, Zhang Xiu has a fatal weakness. He wanted to abolish the nobles and slaves. In the end, it must be the nobles who led the whole Kushan to unite. But Zhang Xiu didn''t want to destroy the Kushan. It is not known who will win


    Ji Mu shook his head and said, "you are wrong!"


    Mahasaro said, "what''s wrong with me?"


    Ji Mu gave a bitter smile and said: "I was taken down by Zhang Xiu, and I was cut off by Zhang Xiu. So, I figured out some ways. Zhang Xiu now has a firm foothold in Wulei City, and his sweeping power of guishuang has been condensed. Today, Zhang Xiu is sure to win. "


    Mahasaro didn''t believe it. He shook his head and said, "no, I don''t agree. In Kushan, the caste system, which has been inherited for thousands of years, has long been deeply rooted. If Zhang Xiu wants to overthrow everything and destroy the Kushan caste system, eventually, all the power of Kushan will resist. It must be the noble of Kushan who will win in the end. What can a group of pariah do? "


    "Wrong!"


    Ji Mu shook his head and said, "no, you are very wrong."


    Mahasaro said, "why?"


    Ji Mu said, "how many nobles are there in this world? Not much! How many Untouchables are there in this world? There are so many. The whole noble of Kushan depends on the maintenance of the pariah. "


    "Because soldiers in the army are Dalits."


    "If one day these Untouchables revolt, what is left of the nobility?"


    "There''s nothing left."


    Ji Mu clenched his teeth and said coldly: "at that time, the noble of Kushan will become unarmed. The nobles of Kushan are surrounded by enemies. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Mahasaro said, "how can this be possible? Who dares to make trouble among these Untouchables?"


    Ji Mu said: "if there is no accident of Wulei City, the untouchables of Kushan dare not make trouble. The Kushan system will continue. However, the change of Wulei city has set off a different chapter. "


    "The nobles of Wulei city are thoroughly swept away."


    "The untouchables in Wulei city have been able to eat, dress and live a good life."


    "Now that you are defeated, you can foresee that Lan''s city will be captured by Zhang Xiu. Soon afterwards, the city of Lancaster was also reformed. When all the nobles in LAN''s city were swept away, thousands of untouchables in LAN''s city turned over again and became the masters of LAN''s city. "


    "At that time, the untouchables will be stronger than ever."


    Ji Mu said: "with the precedent of Wulei city and Lanshi City, the Dalits in Kushan will have ideas. They can''t be as docile and submissive as before. This is the most terrible place. All of a sudden, the caste with the largest population began to rebel, so the noble of Kushan could no longer have a foothold. "


    Mahasaro frowned when he heard it.


    Even he firmly believed that the noble of Kushan would not be defeated and the caste system of thousands of years would not be overturned. But after hearing Ji Mu''s words, mahasaro''s heart was also swayed.Ji Mu sighed: "brother mahasaro, this Kushan can''t hold the attack of Daqin."


    Mahasaro was silent.


    He took a look at Ji Mu, and suddenly said with emotion: "now you have this feeling and cognition, but it''s too late."


    Ji Mu said: "if I were not trapped here, if I were not about to be killed, I would never have such a cognition. Only when a man is dying can he see more clearly. "


    Mahasaro waved his hand and said, "well, well, I can''t care about that either. You and I can''t protect ourselves. How can we manage this? "


    "It is!"


    Ji Mu sighed.


    They both stopped talking and leaned in the corner.


    Time goes by little.


    All night long.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    The day just dawned, at this time of the morning, there is a trace of coolness. In the camp where Ji Mu was, the curtain of the camp door was lifted. Two soldiers went straight in, picked up Ji Mu and went out.


    When mahasaro saw this, he was sad. He knew that Ji Mu was going to be executed. He cried out, "Ji Mu, have a good journey."


    Ji Mu looked back at mahasaro with a sigh.


    No matter he or mahasaro, he was the vassal of Kushan and a man of great power. However, no matter he or mahasaro, he could not escape the death of Zhang Xiu.


    Ji Mu didn''t struggle any more.


    He was dragged by the soldiers and soon came to the South Gate of no thunder city. Now the sky is bright, and the golden sun is falling down. The whole south gate has been rendered as a golden ocean.


    Outside Wulei City, there are countless people gathering.


    One by one, the people looked at Ji Mu and cried out, "kill Ji Mu, kill Ji Mu!"


    Shouts, one after another.


    The voice is vast, reverberating in the air.


    Ji Mu was dispirited when he heard the cry of the people. He was the leader of Wulei city. He was powerful, but now he was killed and resented by so many people.


    What a failure!


    Ji Mu''s heart is very lonely.


    Ji Mu, as the leader of Wulei City, once thought that he was extremely successful. Moreover, Ji Mu thinks that he is a very powerful man with a strong literary and military strategy. But now, Ji Mu is surprised to find that he is wrong.


    In the voice of the people, but see Zhang Xiu has strided out.


    Today''s Zhang Xiu is in armor.


    A solemn scene.


    With the appearance of Zhang Xiu, there were shouts and discussions around her, which soon disappeared. Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu, waiting for her to speak.

 Chapter 1315

    Dressed in armor, Zhang Xiu stands on the stage and looks out, surrounded by people. All these people are looking forward to each other. Even when she looks at Zhang Xiu, she has more admiration and awe in her eyes.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they were able to turn over.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they were satisfied.


    Because of Zhang Xiu, they were able to live a happy and healthy life.


    So one by one people face Zhang Xiu, the heart is excited. That pair of hot eyes, as well as the joy of the heart, are beyond words.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said in a loud voice: "villagers, just yesterday, mahasaro, the leader of LAN''s city, and Ji Mu, led a hundred thousand troops, suddenly entered Wulei city. I personally arranged to destroy the army of mahasara and capture mahasara and Jimu alive. "


    "The man in front of me is Ji Mu."


    "After I captured Ji Mu alive, Ji Mu once said that his teacher held an important position in Peshawar city. As long as I don''t kill him, he can contact his teachers so that my army can easily enter Peshawar. "


    "But I refused."


    "I''m still determined to put Ji Mu to death."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "Mingming has a better choice. If Mingming leaves Jimu, it will bring me more benefits. Why should I execute Ji Mu in front of everyone? "


    The people looked at each other.


    Zhang Xiu''s idea, not they can guess, one after another shake their heads, said do not know.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and continued: "why kill Ji Mu? It''s because I have abolished slaves and nobles. Today''s no thunder city does not need the existence of any nobles. "


    "Ji Mu is the Lord of Wulei city. He represents the past of Wulei city."


    "Kill him, cut off the past."


    "From now on, Wulei city can only move forward and will never restore the caste system. I don''t allow any caste system in Wulei city. "


    Zhang Xiu''s voice became more and more intense, and there was a voice on the ground: "so even Ji Mu can bring benefits, but here I have only one word, that is" kill. ". Kill Ji Mu and keep the law in order. "


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave a categorical order.


    With his command, the executioner immediately came forward and swung his sword. Facing the golden sun, it is already a knife down. The executioner has been used to killing people for a long time, and he is even more familiar with his hand. After the knife fell, his neck broke, and blood spattered all over the floor.


    Ji Mu''s head also fell to the ground with a plop. After rolling for a distance, it stopped. Immediately after that, Ji Mu''s body shakes twice, loses his weight and falls to the ground.


    At this moment, there was silence.


    Everyone stopped talking, and a pair of eyes fell on Ji Mu''s body, as if he was scared.


    "Well done


    In the crowd, there was a shout.


    The cry broke the silence in an instant. All of a sudden, the people who were silent seemed to come to life and started shouting.


    "Well done


    "Jimu, damn it


    "Ji Mu deserves to die!"


    One after another of the voices of discussion, constantly echoing. Although the shouting is noisy, the excitement of the people is expressed in words, all of which are expressed through the shouting.


    After this incident, the hearts of the people completely cut off the connection with the caste system. Their heart is really clear, Zhang Xiu will never allow aristocratic slaves to reappear, they are real people.


    Long live your majesty


    In the crowd, there were people shouting again.


    Long live your majesty


    Long live your majesty


    More and more people, kneeling on the ground one after another, all chanted long live the emperor. For them, Zhang Xiu is their new benefactor, because of the existence of Zhang Xiu, they can get rid of the past.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the excited mood of the people and chuckled.


    Although Zhang Xiu can''t understand the people''s words, she has to translate them, but she can feel the emotions of the people.


    He listened to the people''s words, but his heart turned quickly.


    He suddenly had an idea.


    This has not been implemented before and has not been considered before. Although before that, Zhang Xiu let Xun Yu take charge of things and carried out continuous reform, many previous reforms, though they had great convenience for Wulei city.


    But in fact, it''s complete.


    When Zhang Xiu thought of it, she raised her hand and pressed it down to signal all the people to be quiet and let them stand up. In fact, at this time, people gathered around one after another.


    There are countless black and white people.


    One by one, people''s faces are filled with joy. Under the golden sun, outside the South Gate of Wulei City, countless people''s smiles are very bright.Zhang Xiu took a breath and said again: "folks, today''s Wulei city is the territory of the Qin Dynasty. You are no longer Kushan people, but Qin people. Since you are Qin people, you will enjoy all the treatment of Qin people. "


    "In the territory of Daqin, all the people of Daqin can read and read, and can pass the imperial examination to be officials. You have everything they have. "


    "So I announce that Daqin will set up academies and preach in Wulei City, so that the people of Daqin can read and take part in the imperial examination."


    "As long as you can pass the examination, you can also be an official."


    "It can also govern the place."


    Zhang Xiu threw out a killer mace, and when his words were translated, all the people gathered outside the south gate were excited, all of them were extremely excited.


    These people, in their bones, are still Untouchables.


    In fact, countless people have low self-esteem.


    After all, the caste system in Kushan has been handed down for thousands of years. Under such a premise, these Kushan people dare not expect to be officials or study.


    But Zhang Xiu gave them hope.


    They can read.


    They can be officials.


    Of course, many adult people in Wulei city are definitely impossible. But they have children and their own relatives. After passing the examination, they have the opportunity.


    However, in the crowd, some people suddenly moved forward. This young man, in his early thirties, soon came to the front and exclaimed, "Your Majesty, the grass people have something to say, the grass people have something to say."


    When he came out, everyone around him was quiet. One by one, they looked at the people who came out. They wondered how someone suddenly came out to ask questions at this time.


    Zhang Xiu is not anxious not impatient way: "say, you have what words to say."


    "Your Majesty, our children want to read. However, the family is not rich. I''m afraid I can''t afford to read. "


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said: "the money collected by the government for running a school is very little and will not be harsh. Because once it''s harsh, it''s impossible for most people to read. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "as long as you work hard, it''s not a problem for children to read. No matter how poor you are, you can''t have poor children. As long as children have the opportunity to study, what is a little harder? "


    He didn''t do things for free.


    If we want to read, we can''t get to the point where people can read for free.


    It''s too expensive.


    When the middle-aged people heard this, they didn''t say much and went back.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at all the people and said, "villagers, please rest assured. The cost of studying in academies can never be high. If the cost of the academy is high, you can come to me directly. Please rest assured that you can all have the opportunity to study. All your descendants have the chance to be officials. "


    As Zhang Xiu''s words fall, countless people are very excited at this moment.


    Countless people cheered.


    They are glad that they are the people of the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the cheering people in Wulei City, with a smile on her lips. It''s one thing for these people to identify with Daqin. Zhang Xiu''s real killer is actually reading. Because through reading, all the people in Wulei city will only know Chinese characters and speak Chinese, and eventually become a part of the Qin Dynasty.


    This is the most fundamental.


    It can completely melt the Kushan people, and let all Kushan people really integrate into the territory of Daqin.

 Chapter 1316

    After Zhang Xiu killed Ji Mu and completely stabilized the people of Wulei City, she stopped staying and took Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others to go forward again. This time he went to the front, the rear Wulei city was completely stable, and Zhang Xiu was no longer worried about the safety of Wulei city. When Zhang Xiu went to the front line, the 200000 troops led by jinnaluo continued to march towards Wulei city.


    The army led by jinnaluo has strong combat effectiveness and excellent weapons and equipment. So when jinnaluo was killed by the Qin army, jinnaluo thought that the Qin army had come to die.


    He is sure to win.


    However, both sides are still on their way and have not met for the time being.


    In the evening.


    Kinnalo''s army camped.


    More than 200000 troops are encamped in a vast area. In particular, the burning smoke in the camp blocks the sky and the sun, making the camp seem to be shrouded in smoke.


    Inside the camp, the Chinese army has a big account.


    Ginnalo was sitting in the middle of the town, drinking good wine, with an intoxicated look on his face.


    This day, too comfortable.


    Even in jinnaluo''s mind, there was a flash of thought, that is, the army led by mahabhara would be completely destroyed, and mahabhara would be killed.


    In this way, jinnaluo is the commander of 200000 troops. When he leads the army, defeats the Qin army and sweeps Wulei City, he can take charge of Lanshi city and Wulei city.


    He is the king of these two cities.


    At that time, relying on his strength, it will not be difficult for him to go south to sweep the city of Peshawar.


    This is ginnalo''s wild hope.


    But ginalo just wanted to think about it, because in today''s situation, no one knows how mahasaro won or lost. Once mahasaro wins by surprise, ginalo has to obey mahasaro''s arrangement.


    After all, mahasaro has enough prestige.


    "Unfortunately, if only there were women in the army."


    Ginaro drinks a glass of wine and shakes his head. It''s boring to think about the day of the expedition without a woman. If there is wine and beauty, then this day is the day of immortals.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, the curtain of the tent door was lifted.


    But a soldier entered, knelt down on one knee and reported: "general, there are two people coming outside the camp. One was Indra, the other was Dixu. The two men said they came from Peshawar to see the general


    Brush!


    Ginnalo''s face changed slightly.


    He even stood up directly with a dignified look in his eyes.


    Indra, who was also the son of vesudeva, was the fourth Prince of Kushan, and was highly valued by vesudeva. But most of the time, Indra was outside the town and led the troops outside, not in Peshawar.


    In Peshawar, the princes fought for power, but Indra avoided.


    He was not involved in the fight.


    Jinnaluo did not expect that Indra went north to the city of Lanshi and came to the front line.


    If it was Indra alone, jinnaro would not be so frightened, even dignified, because the people who followed Indra also had emperor Xu. This man is a famous hermit in Kushan and has a great reputation.


    It''s so-called, no plan.


    Even Vasudeva once called on emperor Xu to become an official in person, but emperor Xu refused. According to the nature of Vasudeva, anyone who disobeys him must die hard, or even be dealt with by Vasudeva by various means and eventually killed. But when she saw emperor Xu, she was persuaded by Emperor Xu, and she was very respectful to Emperor Xu.


    Jinnaluo was surprised that such a man should come with Indra.


    Ginello said, "bring people in."


    "Yes


    The soldier was ordered to turn around and be ready to inform.


    When the soldier came to the gate of the barracks, suddenly, he heard ginalo say, "wait a minute!"


    The soldier turned and stooped again, waiting for ginello to speak.


    Jinnaluo looked solemn and said solemnly, "I''d better go in person. After all, the person who came here is the fourth prince. Moreover, there are such famous emperors and sages as Kushan. They have to walk in person. "


    Then he went out.


    Jinnaluo came to the gate of the camp and saw the fourth Prince Indra and Dixu.


    Indra is young, that is, a little older than kujura, that is, about 20 years old, not too old. But Indra was a very tough man with a big face and shining eyes.


    The emperor''s beard beside him was thin, with white hair. He was dressed in coarse linen. Even though he was poorly dressed, he had an extraordinary bearing when he stood at the gate of the camp.


    The two men stood at the gate of the camp, and the soldiers were all breathless, not daring to go out.


    Jinnaluo stepped forward with a smile on his face and said with a smile, "I''m jinnaluo. I''m a general under the leader of the city. Why don''t you send someone to inform the fourth Prince and the emperor in advance, so that I can inform the city master and arrange for someone to meet them? "Indra said with a smile, "general jinnaro, you don''t have to be polite. My teacher and I are here for the front-line war. "


    Ginnalo''s brow went up.


    Teacher!


    Indra actually called Dixu a teacher. With this relationship, it means that Dixu is on Indra''s side. Jinnaluo''s brain turns rapidly. Compared with the power struggle of the princes in Peshawar, Indra has the support of emperor Xu, so it naturally has a great advantage.


    Jinnaluo put aside his mind and said with a smile, "you two, please follow me. Please come in and talk."


    "Please


    Indra waved his hand and opened his mouth.


    "Teacher first, please!"


    Indra looked at the emperor''s whiskers and took them in first, followed by jinnaro. The party went to the camp, and in a short time, they were already in the big tent of the Chinese army.


    Take your seat.


    But ginnalo is still on the throne.


    Indra and Dixu sat on their left and right sides respectively.


    Jinnaluo took the initiative to say: "the fourth Prince and the emperor must come to the front line, but what''s the matter?"


    Indra said, "the prince has just said that it is for the war in the front line. Now Lan''s city is going to fight with the Qin army. In addition, the Lord of mahasaro sent troops to take the path to prepare for a surprise attack on Wulei city. We know the news, too. "


    Jinnaluo asked: "so, what is the fourth Prince going to do?"


    Indra looked at the emperor.


    At this moment, the emperor stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "now that we are fighting with the Qin army, I think the Lord of mahasara will be defeated. This defeat means death or falling into Zhang Xiu''s hands. Now general jinnaluo is also in danger and can''t continue to advance. The current strategy should be comprehensive defense, first to resist the offensive of the Qin army. "


    "Ah


    Ginello''s brows rose in surprise.


    He felt that the emperor must be alarmist.


    Of course, jinnaluo''s heart is actually a little happy. Because emperor Xu is a famous sage and a man who has no plans. Since the emperor must say that mahasara will die, then mahasara will surely be defeated. As the chief General of the army, he took over the army, and then he could take charge of the city.


    This is his chance.


    However, jinnaluo didn''t show what he thought, and he didn''t want to strike. He said: "the emperor must be a sage. Our army, whether in combat effectiveness or in number of troops, is far more than the Qin army. How can we say that it is dangerous? We have an advantage. "


    Emperor must smell speech, but slowly shake his head.

 Chapter 1317

    When jinnaluo saw that emperor Xu shook his head, he obviously denied his idea, so he said, "just now emperor Xu said that the city master will be defeated. Even our army was defeated by the Qin army. I don''t agree with that. The army of my city is all elite. We are sure to win this battle. "


    The emperor said, "general jinnaluo, you are too optimistic. Let me just say that in Wulei City, the abolition of nobles and slaves in Daqin has made countless Untouchables like Daqin. Even after this situation was introduced into the city, the morale of the army and the people of the city were shaken. Under such a premise, if you want to lead a large army to fight against the Qin army, if you don''t have the will of the army, how can you fight? "


    But jinnaluo didn''t agree. He said: "you worry too much. The morale of our army is worthy of war. Our army in LAN''s city is by no means incompetent under Ji Mu''s command. "


    The emperor said with regret, "it''s a pity that people in this world are as stupid as general jinnaluo. Because of your self righteousness, the battle between Kushan and Daqin will be defeated again and again. "


    Brush!


    Ginnalo''s face changed a lot.


    There is anger in my eyes.


    As soon as jinnaluo brushed his sleeves, he said, "if you are here to help the city, I welcome you. However, if you come to pick fault, you will not be welcome. Fourth prince, forgive jinnaluo''s disrespect. Ask the fourth prince to take the emperor''s beard and leave the barracks immediately. I don''t welcome emperor Xu in the army of LAN''s city. "


    Emperor Xu stood up with a smile.


    The fourth Prince Indra also stood up at this moment, but when he stood up, his right hand was on the hilt of his sword. As soon as he got to his feet, he put his strength on his hand, only to hear a clang, and his sword came out of its sheath.


    Indra stepped out at his feet, and with his sword in his hand, he turned into a streamer and went straight to jinnaro.


    "Indra, you want to die!"


    Jinnaluo looked angry. He didn''t expect that Indra, the fourth Prince of the hall, wanted to kill him. He was not a fuel-efficient man, and he was also proficient in martial arts, so jinnaluo immediately took up his sword and prepared to block.


    Just, when jinnaluo just came out of the sword, he felt a burst of heartbreaking pain in his heart.


    Indra''s sword has penetrated his heart.


    A sword goes through the heart.


    Then, the tip of the sword was quickly drawn out, and a canopy of blood was seen splashing out from ginalo''s heart. Ginello opened his mouth to speak, but when he reached his mouth, it was dark and the consciousness in his brain disappeared.


    Plop!


    Ginnalo fell to the ground without any breath.


    Until death, jinnaluo couldn''t understand how Indra made such a decision.


    Kill him with one shot.


    Indra''s long sword fell into the sheath, his eyes turned and fell on the emperor''s beard, saying: "teacher, as you expected. No matter mahasaro or jinnaluo, they all think that the army can resist the Qin army. "


    Emperor Xu said: "this is extremely normal. Jinnaluo thinks that the troops are more than the Qin army, and the weapons are not weak. He thinks that he has the power of the first World War. But actually, it''s not worth mentioning. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a soldier entered directly.


    As soon as the soldier entered, he saw ginalo, who had fallen to the ground with blood flowing into a pool of blood. He suddenly exclaimed and his face looked unbelievable.


    Ginnalo is dead!


    Their general is dead!


    The soldier turned to Indra. At this moment, Indra also looked at the soldier and said in a deep voice, "jinnaluo disobeyed his orders and did not respect him. My prince has already put him in the right place. Go and call the generals of the army to come to the central army to discuss affairs."


    "Yes


    The soldier was ordered to turn around and go down.


    In the face of Indra, the soldiers didn''t have the slightest idea of resistance. The other side was the fourth Prince of Kushan. In terms of identity, even mahasara couldn''t match, let alone jinnaro.


    Now that ginnalo is dead, he is dead.


    This is death in vain.


    Indra looked at the emperor and said, "teacher, everything is as you expected. However, what we need to do next is to stabilize the generals in this group. Next, we need the teacher to come forward. When it comes to language, I haven''t even learned one tenth of the teacher''s


    The emperor stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "don''t worry, the fourth prince, there will be no problem."


    Indra nodded.


    He believes in his teacher.


    In these years, he had never been in Peshawar City, but had been out on the road, which was the instruction of emperor Xu. Just like this, Indra did not fall into the battle of Peshawar after the death of vesudeva. Instead, he accumulated his own strength outside.


    As time went by, the generals in the army entered the barracks one after another. The generals of the army had already known that jinnaluo had been killed and that Indra and Dixu were coming when they communicated through the previous soldiers.


    Therefore, they are all seated separately.


    Each one is not surprised.


    For the generals in the army, jinnaluo is not enough to make them die. The generals in the army only obeyed the orders of mahasaro, so they obeyed ginalo.Indra was the fourth prince.


    Emperor Xu is the sage of Kushan.


    The arrival of these two people and their influence are obviously higher than that of ginalo.


    Soon, everyone gathered.


    Emperor must look around and say slowly, "you are all here. Then I will introduce myself. I am emperor must." As he spoke, the emperor pointed to Indra and said, "this is the fourth prince. I believe some of you have seen him. After all, the fourth Prince has always been a general in the army."


    Among the generals, there were some who had seen Indra, and they were not strangers. They all saluted one after another.


    Emperor Xu continued: "the reason for jinnaluo''s death is very simple, because he did not obey the order of the fourth prince. Therefore, the fourth Prince directly executed jinnaluo. Do you have any objection? "


    Some shook their heads, some remained silent.


    However, some people said, "the emperor must be a sage. Jinnaluo is guilty of disobeying the order of the fourth prince. But, after all, he is a subordinate of the Lord of mahasara, the city of Langshi. Should he be handed over to the Lord of mahasara? "


    Dixu said, "mahasaro will be defeated if he sends troops to attack Wulei city. The 100000 troops led by him will surely be defeated and will never come back. Even mahasara will be defeated. How can we give it to mahasara? "


    "No way!"


    The general who had just opened his mouth shook his head and said, "Lord mahasaro, together with Ji Mu, the Lord of Wulei City, led a hundred thousand troops to take the path. In particular, our front-line sentinel has sent back news that Zhang Xiu''s main force of Qin army has left Wulei city to kill us. An empty city without thunder is not the rival of mahasaro. We will win this battle. "


    The emperor must smile and disdain to say: "how can Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, leave an empty city without thunder for mahasaro. Even the great emperor Wei Su died in the hands of the Emperor Qin. It can be seen that Daqin is powerful. In the face of such a great Qin emperor, we must not underestimate him. The Lord of mahasara has committed the taboo of belittling the enemy. "


    But the general said, "no, the Lord of mahasara will surely win."


    Some people agree with this.


    After all, there are also a group of supporters under mahasaro, who are all his staunch supporters. They can''t blame when they see jinnaluo killed, but they firmly believe that mahasaro will win.


    Emperor Xu is still not impatient, expounding the reason why mahasara must be defeated in the front line.


    The two sides are at loggerheads.


    When Indra saw this, he opened his mouth to open his mouth. However, Emperor Xu gave Indra a look, which made Indra no longer open his mouth.


    Emperor Xu''s deep eyes flashed a fine light and said: "since I and you all insist on each other, and neither of you can afford each other. So, how about we make a bet? "

 Chapter 1318

    Will lead the way: "what bet?"


    Emperor Xu replied: "our gambling is..."


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, outside the camp, soldiers rushed in. The soldier''s face was full of panic. He knelt down on the ground with a plop and said in a loud voice: "the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good!"


    Indra said, "what happened?"


    The soldiers didn''t know that jinnaluo had been killed. Now they saw Indra sitting on it and jinnaluo''s body on one side. They looked left and right. For a moment, they were even more frightened and full of fog. They didn''t know what had happened.


    Indra said again, "what happened?"


    The soldier took a deep breath and saw that many of his familiar generals nodded. Then he said, "the news came from outside that all the 100000 troops led by Lord mahasaro and Lord Jimu were occupied in Wulei city. Not only that, Ji Mu was executed in Wulei city. The Lord of mahasara, who has been detained, come to the front line


    Boom!!


    All the generals in the army changed greatly.


    Mahasaro was defeated.


    The generals, who were silent or neutral, looked at emperor Xu one by one, and their eyes were filled with shock. However, in the look of shock, there was more shock and astonishment.


    I''m really expected by Emperor Xu.


    The generals who were loyal to mahasaro, all of them withered. They are sure that mahasaro will win, but the news from reality is so helpless.


    Emperor must not be impatient and said: "you guys, it seems that there is no need to bet. My judgment is right indeed. Because mahasaro and Jimu belittled the enemy, they buried 100000 troops. "


    After a pause, the emperor said again: "now we are going to meet the Qin army, only these 200000 people. Especially now that the news of mahasaro''s defeat is coming back, it means that the morale of the army is unstable. "


    "I''m afraid it''s good to have 100000 soldiers in the 200000 troops."


    "Even many of the soldiers in the army came from pariah origin."


    "They are humble."


    "Lured by the system of Wulei City, there will be two hearts. Even many of them may run away in the face of battle, resulting in a fighting capacity of less than 50000 or 60000


    Emperor Xu said: "such an army, to compete with the elite of the Qin Dynasty, let alone defeat each other, even to block the place, it may be very small."


    When the generals heard this, they nodded and talked with each other. They were all in a panic.


    They agreed with his analysis.


    They agreed with emperor Xu''s judgment.


    In particular, the emperor must determine that mahasara will be defeated, and let the public know his ability. On the premise that Dixu judged the failure and success of mahasara, no one dared to doubt Dixu any more, and all believed Dixu''s judgment.


    Indra saw this, and a smile passed at the corner of his mouth.


    This is normal.


    His teacher is eloquent, and he judges one item to be extremely accurate. At the beginning, after modi''s defeat in the western regions, Vasudeva decided to fight in person. Emperor Xu once concluded that Vasudeva might be defeated.


    In the end, Vasudeva was defeated.


    After the defeat of Vasudeva, the emperor decided that she might have died in the front line. Moreover, once vesuva died on the front line, the country would be in turmoil.


    At that time, Indra felt that his teachers were alarmists, and they were the emperors of the Qin Dynasty.


    I didn''t expect that Vasudeva was dead.


    The country is in a mess.


    Thanks to Indra, according to the arrangement of emperor Xu, he has been making friends with the generals in the army in advance. So up to now, although Indra has not been in charge of Peshawar City, in fact, Indra has quite strong strength in the south.


    In fact, with Indra''s strength and the emperor''s plan, it is not difficult to enter the city of Peshawar. It is enough to wipe out the princes in Peshawar.


    But the emperor must advise Indra to avoid fighting.


    According to the emperor''s opinion, if Indra takes advantage of the opportunity to take charge of Peshawar city in times of domestic turmoil, it can indeed wipe out all people and gain the leadership of Kushan. However, there will be countless people who are opposed and unconvinced.


    The only way to defeat Qin guituo''s army is to support them.


    In this way, Indra was regarded as vengeance for Vasudeva, which also stabilized the caste system of Kushan.


    The nobles of Kushan will support Indra.


    There was no objection.


    This is the royal way that the emperor must give.


    Because Dharma agreed, he took emperor Xu to the north and came to the front line with him.


    Indra said, "teacher, now that the Lord of mahasara has fallen into the hands of the Qin army. Now, how can we fight against the Qin army? According to the teacher, we can''t stop the Qin army. How can we keep it"Yes, the emperor must be a sage. Now, how can we resist the Qin army?"


    "Ask the emperor to point out a clear way."


    One by one, they kept opening their mouths and looked at emperor Xu with hope in their eyes. Because today, it is impossible to rely on mahasara. It is only by the emperor''s planning that he has the chance to reverse the war.


    Emperor must look at the panic of the crowd, mouth with a faint smile, raised his hand down pressure.


    All of a sudden, everyone was quiet.


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice, "you guys, it''s not impossible to block the attack of the Qin Dynasty. Even if we want to fight against Daqin next, it is highly possible. "


    Everyone, I''m looking at the emperor.


    Waiting for the emperor to speak.


    After all, in the face of the front of the Qin army, even mahasaro was defeated, and the generals in the army had no idea.


    At this moment, the emperor must stand up from his seat. After pacing back and forth with his hands on his back, he said, "there are three things to do to resist the army of the Qin Dynasty."


    "The first thing is to stabilize the morale of the army."


    "If you want to resist the great Qin army, if you don''t have a stable morale, it''s useless to make any arrangement. As long as the morale of the 200000 troops is stabilized, the 200000 people will still be the main force far ahead of the Qin army. "


    "We still have the power of the first World War."


    "We can still stand."


    Emperor Xu continued with a frank talk: "of course, to stabilize the morale of the army can not be accomplished in one or two words. The first thing to do is to give the soldiers in the army a chance to rise. "


    "Promise the soldiers, as long as this battle can survive. Well, give them a certain salary reward. In addition, they will be given the opportunity to be promoted to the nobility. "


    "Once upon a time, even if the Dalits made great contributions, they could not be promoted to nobility."


    "Now, give them a chance."


    "In this way, even ordinary soldiers in the army don''t want to be pariah all the time. But in their hearts, they want to be promoted and become aristocrats. "


    "So they will fight with all their strength."


    Emperor Xu continued: "only in this way can the turbulent morale of the army be stabilized. As for the impact of mahasaro, it is actually easy to solve. Therefore, the first thing at present is to solve the instability of military morale through interests. "


    Indra said, "teacher, what''s the second thing?"


    The rest of them looked at emperor Xu one after another, waiting for him to explain the second thing.


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "second, our strength is still weaker than that of the Qin Dynasty. In particular, the successive victories of the great Qin Dynasty were accompanied by the attack of defeating mahasaro. The front of the army was strong and it was not suitable to be the enemy in the front. So now, it is suitable for us to turn attack into defense and defend for a while to weaken the offensive of Daqin. It is only when the opponent''s offensive is full of vigour, and then declines three times, and is no longer sharp, that it is suitable for the first World War. "


    Indra said: "the teacher has a point. Now, we have been hit hard one after another and are not suitable for the first World War. At the moment, the best way is to defend with all your strength. As long as we hold on, we will have a chance to fight


    The rest echoed.


    Now they listen to Emperor Xu. Although the army is in a disadvantageous position, in fact, their hearts are extremely down-to-earth. They feel that with emperor Xu, they have the backbone.

 Chapter 1319

    Emperor Xu said: "the third thing is to arrange for people to return to the city and tell the nobles of the city again. The front line needs more troops. Please send them to help. "


    After a pause, the emperor said, "once the city of Lanshi is defeated, they will be destroyed by Daqin. So send someone back for help. The nobles of blue city will send troops again to help. With a new force coming to help, it is not a problem to resist the Qin army. There is even a chance to fight back. "


    Indra said, "the teacher has a point. I agree with the teacher''s arrangement."


    "The advice of the emperor and the sage is really reasonable."


    "Now that the situation is critical, we should proceed according to the plan of the emperor."


    One by one, they keep talking.


    There are also many smiles on their faces. After all, with emperor Xu, they have the backbone. Originally, some people felt sorry for the death of jinnaluo, but now, they have long forgotten jinnaluo''s death and are thinking about the current situation.


    Emperor Xu had a smile on his lips.


    Now that all the generals in the army have been stabilized, his plan to bring Indra into the army has been completed. Now that the generals have stabilized, the next step is to stabilize the morale of the army.


    Emperor Xu said: "you are the best when you have fighting spirit. But simply because you all have the will to fight, it''s not enough. It needs all the soldiers to be one. So I urge you to gather your generals at once, and I will lecture you. "


    One by one, send the order immediately.


    The camp was ablaze in the darkness. The soldiers who had had dinner and were ready to rest all got up and gathered in the camp.


    All the soldiers assembled, a team of 200000 people, full of people and powerful momentum.


    These 200000 people are extraordinary.


    Not one or two, after all.


    It''s 200000.


    The soldiers in the army began to talk. It''s just the whispered comments of the soldiers in the camp, forming a mighty voice. The place where the whole crowd gathered is like a busy city.


    In particular, the officers and men in the army have been informed that jinnaluo was killed, and they all know that Indra is in charge of the army. Moreover, the news of mahasara''s defeat has been spread, and the people in the army are floating.


    There was a lot of talk.


    The whole mess.


    Indra and Dishu, surrounded by the generals, had come to the camp and went straight to the center of the crowd.


    Everywhere we went, everyone was watching.


    Not long after, Dixu came to the center and stood on a temporary platform.


    Emperor must wait until he comes to power and look around. In the face of the noisy scene and the fear of the soldiers, Emperor Xu did not open his mouth and let the soldiers talk quietly.


    It was done on purpose.


    When the soldiers finish speaking and vent, they will be quiet.


    Soon everyone was quiet.


    Emperor Xu then said, "since you don''t talk about it, I''ll talk about it next. You must wonder why it was not the fourth Prince Indra who said it, but me, an old man who had already buried most of his body. "


    "The old man''s name is Dixu. He is the teacher of the fourth prince."


    "The old man is also quite ashamed. He has lived most of his life and made no achievements. If you want to be an official, you have never been an official. If you want to be a man, you can''t do it very well. "


    "Originally, the old man should have died at home in his whole life


    "But the Qin army invaded Kushan."


    "When the Qin army killed us, the Wulei city of guishuang was first lost and fell into the control of the Qin army. In today''s Wulei City, all Kushan people have changed their names. They are no longer Kushan people, and even all ancestral traditions have been lost. They all follow the laws and traditions of the Qin people. "


    "These people are no longer Kushan people."


    Emperor Xu said with a smile: "so now I''m here. The reason why I came here is to keep Kushan and the home we live together. "


    His words did not make waves among the soldiers.


    But some soldiers know that emperor Xu.


    With the comments of the soldiers, the name of emperor Xu gradually spread. When everyone knows that emperor Xu is the sage of Kushan, who was once unable to be invited out by Wei sutiva, they have more inexplicable awe for emperor Xu.


    After the sound of discussion came into being, but a moment later, it disappeared again, and the silence was restored.


    Everyone listened to the emperor.


    The emperor must be clear that his opening remarks can not move the soldiers, because there are not enough interests to motivate the soldiers, so it is impossible to convince them. Without sufficient interests, it is impossible to make the upper and lower levels unite.


    The emperor must continue: "now, in order to resist the great Qin Dynasty, I admonish Prince Indra that all those who have made great contributions in the battlefield. No matter the origin, no matter the official position, can be given aristocratic status. This noble status can be inherited. "


    "If you want to climb up, if you want to stand out, if you want to be a noble nobleman, now you have a chance. Prince Indra gives you a chance to be outstanding. ""Opportunity is just around the corner. It depends on whether you can grasp it."


    Emperor Xu said: "I know that the vast majority of you are the most common people in Kushan and the lowest people. Don''t you look at each other''s hearts from afar? Once you become a noble, what a wonderful thing it is. "


    "Once upon a time, you didn''t have a chance."


    "But now Prince Indra has made reforms."


    "Anyone who makes contributions on the battlefield can be rewarded and promoted."


    "This is your chance to change your destiny."


    Emperor Xu''s eyes were sharp, his voice was gradually fierce, and he even tried his best to roar, saying: "I know what Daqin preaches, there are no nobles and civilians. But in fact, is there really no aristocracy? Wrong, their officials are aristocrats, and they also have aristocrats. Don''t you all want to be aristocrats? "


    "Think of your wife and children!"


    "Think of your parents!"


    "Think about it. If you become aristocrats, how glorious it would be to return home. So it''s a great honor to be back in the country. The fate of the whole family will be changed because of your contributions. "


    Emperor Xu encouraged: "so, do you dare to fight? Although I am old, my blood is not cold. Even if the Qin army killed me, I dare to fight. Therefore, I want to fight the Qin army to the end. Are you willing to fight to the end?


    "Fight to the end!"


    In the crowd, a general called out.


    The generals in the army were originally aristocrats. They had no way out. So after hearing what emperor Xu said, they all cried out. With the shouting of these generals, as well as the soldiers in the army, inspired by Emperor Xu, their inner desires were also aroused.


    People have desire.


    If you are human, you will have greed.


    The same is true of these ordinary soldiers.


    One by one, they are the lowest Untouchables in Kushan. Although they resent their origin, they do not want to exist as the lowest. They hate such a caste system. But in such a heart, but also eager to be able to become a person, eager to be able to stand out and become a noble.


    They didn''t have a chance.


    Because the pariah is the pariah, can not become a noble.


    Now they have an opportunity.


    So many soldiers began to shout out, "fight to the end.". From the beginning, the voice of the fight to the end was sparse, and gradually became more and more regular, and even more loud.


    Countless soldiers have been encouraged.


    So that neat voice, resounding throughout the camp, for a long time.


    This scene fell into Indra''s eyes, which were full of happy smiles. Because his teacher is the only one who can do this. No one else.


    Indra is more confident in his heart.


    In this battle, he will certainly hold on and then fight back.


    Kushan will be reborn in his hands, will glow with more gorgeous brilliance.

 Chapter 1320

    The emperor must through a word, drum up the morale of the army, make the people of the army stabilized, the heart is also a sigh of relief. It is not easy to boost the morale of a team of 200000 people.


    After all, if there are too many people, the mind will be disordered.


    It is not easy to twist the hearts of all people into one rope and aim at the same direction. However, Dixu succeeded in uniting the 200000 troops of LAN''s city.


    After the army became stable, Emperor Xu, Indra and others returned to the Chinese army.


    Take your seat.


    If Indra sits on the throne, the emperor should sit on the first place on the left, and the rest of the generals should sit on their respective seats.


    Everyone smiles.


    The generals in the army were all the nobles in the city of Lanchester. None of them were ordinary people, and none of them were of low status. They all know that all the nobles in Wulei city have been dismissed. Once they are defeated, their fate may not be much better than that of the nobility in Wulei City, so they are willing to resist to the end.


    One by one, they kept opening their mouths, flattering emperor Xu and praising him.


    Indra also said: "the teacher''s hand is really extraordinary. Now that the morale of the army has been stabilized, then we can prepare to withdraw, and then find a place that is easy to defend, so as to block the attack of the Qin army. "


    There was a light in emperor''s eyes, and he said: "what the fourth prince said is true. The next step is to retreat. But before that, there is one more thing that needs to be arranged immediately. "


    Indra said, "what''s the matter?"


    Emperor must answer: "arrange a group of sentry, lurking in the camp periphery, carefully staring at the camp outside."


    Indra said, "teacher, why is that?"


    The general in the army also said: "emperor Xu sage, you arranged the sentinel to lurk outside the camp because you were worried that the Qin army would have sentinel to watch us. Or are you worried that the Qin army will attack our camp at night? "


    The emperor must answer: "all are not!"


    Indra said, "why is that?"


    Dixu explained: "the reason for this arrangement is very simple. It is because after today''s announcement that jinnaluo was killed and that we are going to fight to the death. In the camp, if there are people who are inclined to the Qin army, or who have been inside the Qin army, they will certainly spread the news in the camp. Therefore, we must arrange sentries outside the camp to prevent people from sending messages. "


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said: "once someone leaves the camp, take it directly. Of course, it would be the best if no one went out and there were no insiders of the Qin army. In a word, it means that the sentinel can have less rest, but it can block the news and ensure that the incident in the camp will not spread out. "


    Indra praised and said, "the teacher is far sighted. He is really reasonable. If the Qin army knew about our accident, it would certainly make corresponding countermeasures. However, if the Qin army didn''t know about our accident, it was short of intelligence. "


    Emperor must say: "exactly so."


    As soon as they heard this, they all said that they would make arrangements immediately to ensure the completion of what the emperor had to tell them.


    For them, this is a very simple thing.


    It''s not that complicated.


    Emperor Xu didn''t say much, so he waved his hand and let the people to preach. Soon, only Indra and Emperor Xu were left in the camp. With an excited look on his face, Indra said with a smile, "teacher, we have succeeded. We have succeeded. Now, we have successfully taken control of the army in Lancaster city. "


    Emperor Xu said slowly: "fourth prince, all this is just the beginning. A beginning is not worth your excitement. As an emperor, we should not show our happiness and anger on our faces. Every move you make should be calm and calm. Especially now, it''s just controlling the city of Lancaster. "


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said: "in the future, you will control more places. Even in the future, you will be in charge of the whole Kushan. So it''s not worth being so excited about what''s going on right now. "


    Indra was very excited.


    I''m so happy.


    Because they came to the city alone, and there was not a single soldier. Now, however, we have got 200000 troops out of thin air, and these 200000 troops are still full of energy and can be worthy of war.


    However, the words of emperor Xu made Indra feel as if his head had been splashed with a basin of cold water. He was no longer excited and calmed down. He said in a positive way: "the teacher teaches, the disciples are taught."


    The emperor must continue: "fourth prince, you should always remember one thing. As the leader of a country, you can''t rely solely on strength, authority and brute force to control your subordinates, because these are unreliable. The most reliable driving force is to bind them with interests, to let them act spontaneously. Let them be spontaneous and do what you want them to do. "


    "This is the way of emperors."


    "Only interest is eternal."


    "As long as you grasp this point, then, everything must go to the wrong, you can do not confused in the heart."


    "This is your chance."


    With a smile on his face, Emperor Xu said again, "teacher, I hope you can do this step."Indra was greatly touched by the words of emperor Xu. If it is pure preaching, Indra may not be able to understand it deeply. However, after what emperor Xu said today, Emperor Xu made these generals and soldiers of the city stand on his side with his real interests. Indra had a deep feeling.


    Indra said, "the teacher''s expectations will not be forgotten by the disciples. When the disciples take charge of Kushan, it will be the day when the teacher becomes the national teacher of Kushan. "


    Emperor Xu shook his head and said, "if you want to be the national teacher of Kushan, I would have been the national teacher when your father, empress Vasudeva, and I would not be able to turn to Seneca. What I want is to show my strong points and to make Kushan really strong. "


    Indra said: "teacher, when the father emperor reigned, was not Kushan strong?"


    "Not strong!"


    Emperor Xu explained: "although the Kushan is vast in territory, it is also powerful. In fact, on the surface, they are strong, strong in the outside and weak in the middle. Because your father is too strong and too conceited. Just as the saying goes, "hard is easy to break, so is a person and a country."


    After hearing this, Indra nodded in agreement and said, "I have been taught."


    The emperor had to change his words and continued: "besides, the generals in LAN''s city, now the fourth Prince has taken them for his own use. But you have a lot to do. If you want them to completely submit to you, or even stand behind you, then the fourth prince will have to pay more attention to make them really tied to you. "


    Indra said, "please teach me."


    Emperor must say: "if I don''t give you a plan, what do you plan to do?"


    Indra knew that this was the teacher''s examination.


    He thought quickly.


    A moment later, Indra said, "teacher, if a disciple comes forward, he will start from two aspects. The first is to be kind to them and show them more concern, so that they can understand that I value them; the second is to win over them with interests, suggesting that once they agree to this war, when I succeed in taking charge of the Kushan, they will be given high office and high salary. "


    "Good, good!"


    Emperor Xu was very satisfied with Indra''s words, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "the first is to attack the heart, and the second is to win over the interests. In this way, they will always be with you. Even in trouble, they will follow you. "


    Indra said, "don''t worry, teacher. I understand."


    Then the emperor said something to Indra.


    They talked a lot, and a lot of things were extended one by one according to the current situation of the army. In this way, many things that Indra didn''t want to understand in the past were clear and thorough.


    As time goes by, it''s early in the morning.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the voice of the general came from outside the camp: "fourth prince, I will ask for a meeting in Yanbian."


    Yanbian is a general in the army.


    His position is second only to ginello, so he came to report it.


    Indra did not rest and said, "come in!"


    After entering Yanbian, he bowed himself and reported: "fourth prince, according to the arrangement of emperor Xu sages, we arranged sentries to lurk outside the camp. At first, I didn''t find it. But late at night, I really found out. Four people were caught, all of them leaving the camp to report the news. "


    After a pause, Yanbian bit his teeth and said: "I didn''t expect that these people were not arranged by the Qin army. But they still want to go to the Qin army, ready to tell the news to the Qin army. Thanks to the emperor, the sages must arrange it. Otherwise, when these people arrive at the camp of the Qin army, the Qin army will know about the changes in our camp. "


    Indra''s eyes narrowed and said, "general Yanbian, you''ve been staying up all night. But you have to work hard to kill these four people, and then announce their sins, so that all soldiers can know the end of betrayal. "


    Yanbian said excitedly: "the fourth Prince has killed the last general. It''s the duty of the last general to guard the camp. It''s not hard at all. The fourth Prince''s arrangement, the minister immediately goes to arrange


    "Go


    Indra waved his hand.


    Yanbian bowed and bowed again, then turned back.


    The emperor must look at Yanbian''s back, with a faint smile on his face, and say: "fourth prince, it''s late. I can''t support myself, so I go down to have a rest. "


    Indra got up to see the teacher off and said, "I''ll see the teacher off."


    After seeing off the emperor''s beard, he also rubbed his sour face and went back to the Chinese army tent to have a rest. After all, Indra himself was extremely tired.


    Although Indra was physically exhausted, his mental excitement was irresistible. Because before, in the south of Kushan, although he had certain strength, in fact, his strength was not enough to support him to capture Peshawar city. Even if it is able to capture, there is no law to convince the whole Kushan, unable to really take charge of the Kushan.


    Now, with the help of emperor Xu, he took the first step of steadiness.The next step was to fight the Qin army.


    Indra wanted to win.


    Because of his ambition, he wants to take charge of Kushan and become the king of Kushan.

 Chapter 1321

    Zhang Xiu led the army, all the way forward, continue to move towards the border of no thunder city. When the army was not far away from the army of Lancaster City, the news suddenly came back from the front line that the army of Lancaster city had retreated and would not continue to advance.


    This is a surprise to Zhang Xiu.


    Even if the news of mahasaro''s defeat came out, the army of Lancaster city would not withdraw so simply.


    It''s all weird.


    On one side, Zhang Xiu orders Wang Yue''s royal guards to inquire about the news of the army of LAN''s city, while on the other side, she is still on her way at full speed. More than 100000 troops continued to advance and even began to speed up their pursuit of the retreating army of Lancaster city.


    However, Zhang Xiu chased for most of the day, and the news came back from the front line that the army of LAN''s city had stopped. The place where it is stationed is called Tianmen Mountain.


    If the army led by Zhang Xiu wants to move on, it has to pass at the foot of Tianmen Mountain.


    Tianmen Mountain, which is not steep and has no towering trees, has been occupied by the army of blue city.


    The army of Lancheng is also behind Tianmen Mountain.


    Such an arrangement is obviously to stop Zhang Xiu''s army in Tianmen Mountain. Zhang Xiu doesn''t think there''s anything unexpected about this situation. What''s really strange to him is that the royal guards sent out intended to contact the inside of LAN''s City Army, but there was no news from the beginning to the end. That''s the most strange thing.


    Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and asked about the situation. Wang Yue was confused now, but he just sent someone to inquire about the situation.


    In this case, Zhang Xiu''s guess may be that the other side is under martial law.


    Even inside, there''s no news.


    What Zhang Xiu can do now is to steadily lead the troops forward and continue to march to Tianmen Mountain. In addition, sentries will be arranged to further explore the topography of Tianmen Mountain, so as to understand a general situation of Tianmen Mountain, so as to facilitate the next battle.


    It took less than a day for the army to catch up and approach the Tianmen Mountain area. However, Zhang Xiu''s army was stationed far away from Tianmen Mountain.


    Zhang Xiu with Pang Tong and Guo Jia, quietly close.


    A group of people, looking in the distance.


    Zhang Xiu looks at the Tianmen Mountain in front of her, which is not steep or rugged. The problem is that at the foot of the mountain, it is the only way to the city.


    If Zhang Xiu''s army wants to go to Lanshi City, it must pass through here.


    Otherwise, we can''t go south.


    Of course, you can also send soldiers to climb Tianmen Mountain and make a detour from the mountain. The problem is that on Tianmen Mountain, there are already a large number of troops stationed in LAN''s city, and a large number of troops are stationed. If Zhang Xiu''s army wants to win Tianmen Mountain, it will certainly pay a price.


    Guo Jia looked at it carefully, pointed to the direction of Tianmen Mountain, and said, "Your Majesty, look at Tianmen Mountain. There are banners waving everywhere. It should be the soldiers of LAN''s city. The real camp of the city is in the rear. Even if we master mahasaro, we can''t go to fight. It''s very difficult to do this. "


    Pang Tong''s eyes narrowed and said, "I''m afraid we can only attack Tianmen Mountain by force and destroy the soldiers of LAN''s city stationed on Tianmen Mountain first. Then, think about dealing with the army of blue city. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly.


    Under the current situation, to attack the army of Lanshi City, we must first destroy the troops of Lanshi city on Tianmen Mountain.


    "At present, we can also try the influence of mahasaro," Guo said


    Zhang Xiu flashed a light in her eyes and said: "the meaning of filial piety is to send mahasara to the foot of Tianmen Mountain, let mahasara climb the mountain and order the army of Lanshi city to surrender."


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "after all, mahasaro is the Lord of the city. He''s in Lancaster City, and he''s got a lot of prestige. If mahasarole makes the army of Ramsey surrender, it will reduce our difficulty. Of course, even if it''s a failure, it doesn''t matter. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you can have a try."


    "Come on, let''s go back to camp."


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu takes Pang Tong and Guo Jia and turns to return to the camp. After the party returned, they went straight back to the Zhongjun tent, while Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to call mahasaro.


    Mahasaro now, his eyes are staring at the dark circles of his eyes, and he looks very decadent.


    A look of dispirited.


    He was taken by Zhang Xiu, thinking about Ji Mu''s being killed all day long, and worried that he would follow Ji Mu''s footsteps. So during this period of time, he went with the army and couldn''t sleep all day and all night.


    All day and all night in a trance.


    As a result, he was very old. In a short time, his temples were white and his back was rickety.


    When mahasaro saw Zhang Xiu, he pushed the gold mountain and poured the jade pillar. He knelt down and kowtowed with a look of fear: "sinner mahasaro, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said: "mahasaro, the army led by your general jinnaluo has retreated to Tianmen Mountain. Now, jinnaluo has an army in Tianmen Mountain. I expect that the Qin army will resist me in Tianmen Mountain. What should we do? "As soon as mahasaro heard this, he understood it and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go and persuade you. I beg your majesty to give me a chance. I''m willing to persuade the army of Lancaster city to surrender. "


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu praised: "now, go to the foot of Tianmen Mountain and order the army of Lanshi city on Tianmen Mountain to surrender. As long as you succeed, I will give you a way to live and not kill you. "


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    Mahasaro''s face brightened with joy.


    At this moment, mahasaro saw hope.


    Since he was captured in the city of no thunder, mahasaro couldn''t sleep all day and all night. After sleeping, he either dreams of Ji Mu being killed or his head falling to the ground. He looks very miserable.


    Now, he has a chance to survive.


    Mahasaro didn''t want to die, so he patted his chest and promised, "please don''t worry, your majesty. The army of the city of Lanchester is brought out by sinners. The sinners have enough prestige in the city to mobilize the army of the city. In particular, jinnaluo was promoted by a sinner, and he will surely submit to Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "whether you will surrender depends on the result of your persuasion. If the army of lanshicheng in Tianmen Mountain all choose to surrender, what I promise will come into effect and will never be perfunctory to you. "


    Mahasaro said, "thank you, your majesty."


    After a pause, mahasaro took the initiative to say, "it''s too early now. It''s time to do something. Please arrange someone to escort me to the foot of Tianmen Mountain, and I will send orders to the garrison on Tianmen Mountain to let them all withdraw. "


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order.


    "Yes


    Wang Yue answered immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you arrange two royal guards to go down to Tianmen Mountain with mahasara. This gave mahasaro a chance to persuade him to surrender to the army of lanshicheng in Tianmen Mountain. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answered immediately.


    Immediately, he arranged for two royal guards to escort mahasaro out of the camp.


    After mahasaro''s forefoot left, Zhang Xiu followed, with people behind. However, Zhang Xiu this time, with a small number of soldiers, just a team of royal guards, the army is still stationed in the camp.

 Chapter 1322

    The top of Tianmen Mountain.


    Here, there is the headquarters of the blue city army.


    The army camp in Lanshi city is at the rear of Tianmen Mountain. The army is within the promise and can help the soldiers of Tianmen Mountain at any time. According to the normal situation, the headquarters was also changed to a camp. But in fact, it was not so. The emperor had to make every effort to arrange the headquarters of the army in Lanshi city on the top of the mountain, so as to respond at any time.


    Indra was always a leader, and he didn''t like to hide in the rear. Therefore, the request of emperor Xu was not rejected at all. Instead, he followed emperor Xu on the mountain happily.


    The same is true of the rest of the chief generals.


    All of them followed Indra. After all, they were only led by Indra now, so they all followed Indra if Indra had any plans.


    Everyone was on the top of the mountain, chatting and laughing.


    The atmosphere was quite relaxed.


    After all, there are emperors in the army, so many generals in the army don''t feel afraid. In particular, a large army has been set up on Tianmen Mountain. If the Qin army dares to kill them, the troops of Tianmen Mountain will fight back with all their strength.


    There was a desk in front of emperor Xu.


    There is a pot of tea on it.


    Emperor Xu likes to drink tea. Although he is cooking tea, the strong aroma of tea wafts away in the mouth of tea. Emperor Xu feels that the whole person is extremely comfortable, and even he feels that his thinking is more flexible.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, soldiers quickly entered.


    The soldier knelt down on one knee and said, "fourth prince, here comes the Qin army. At present, the Qin army has camped six miles north of Tianmen. The place where they camp is open and not easy to attack. "


    Indra said, "explore again!"


    "Yes


    The soldier was ordered to turn and leave.


    Indra looked at emperor Xu and said, "teacher, the army of Qin army has been camping six miles away. This means that the Qin army is about to launch an attack and the war is drawing near. "


    The rest of the generals agreed.


    One by one, although there was no worry on their faces, they were still worried at the bottom of their hearts.


    After all, it was the Qin army.


    Once, modi was defeated and died in the hands of the Qin army.


    Once upon a time, Wu jiutu was defeated and died in the hands of the Qin army.


    Once upon a time, Wei sudiva was defeated and died in the hands of the Qin army.


    Since the confrontation between Kushan and Daqin, they have never won. From beginning to end, Kushan was defeated. In such a situation, even if there is emperor Xu in today''s society, even if emperor Xu anticipates things like God, people are worried.


    This is the result of successive failures.


    He was afraid of the Qin army.


    The emperor must look around with a fist and sweep the look of the people. He knows the mind of the people. At this time, Emperor Xu said with a smile, "ladies and gentlemen, now the Qin army has arrived. The first thing we should consider is not how the Qin army will attack. What we need to consider now is how to face mahasaro. "


    Indra said, "teacher, how do you say that?"


    "The emperor must be a sage. Mahasara has been defeated. This is the end of the matter. What is the matter with mahasara?"


    "Yes, mahasaro has been taken."


    "Mahasara has no influence on our army, especially now the whole army, led by Prince Indra, obeys the arrangement of Prince Indra, so it has no influence."


    The generals spoke one after another.


    People have no idea about mahasaro now. After all, after some agitation and instigation from emperor Xu, all the soldiers have already stood on the side of Indra, only Indra is the leader.


    When Emperor Xu heard what they said, he held a faint smile on his lips and said, "ladies and gentlemen, I mentioned how to face mahasara. It''s because of the news from Wulei city that Jimu was killed. "


    "But mahasaro was not killed."


    "I expected that mahasara would submit to Zhang Xiu. In other words, Zhang Xiu left mahasara to be used here in Tianmen Mountain and ordered us to surrender with mahasara."


    "Mahasaro opened his mouth, you say, what should we do?"


    Emperor must pick up the tea cup in front of him and drink a mouthful of tea. He has a smile on his face. For such a wise man as Dixu, he can infer what may happen at every step.


    As soon as they heard it, the discussion stopped abruptly.


    Because what emperor Xu mentioned about how to deal with it is to kill mahasara once mahasara appears, or to do things according to mahasara''s plan.


    Because he did not speak, he looked at the crowd.


    Waiting for everyone to speak.


    At this time, the generals, who were already on Indra''s side, took the initiative to say: "fourth prince, if mahasara is still loyal to Kushan, we can''t abandon him. However, if he surrendered to Daqin, he would order them to surrender. Then, he is the culprit of Kushan and should be killed. ""Yes, if mahasaro betrayed Kushan, it would be unforgivable."


    "I suggest leaving mahasaro alone."


    "He has been defeated. He is a defeated general. It is not enough for us to change our plan. Now we, occupying Tianmen Mountain, can''t change our plan just because of a mahasara. "


    One by one, one by one, one by one.


    Indra heard everyone''s words, with a bright smile on his angular face.


    His plan came true.


    Emperor Xu sat down and stroked his beard under his jaw. His eyes narrowed, but the deep part of his eyes was shining. Because for him, to let people express their opinions is his goal.


    This is to remove the influence of mahasaro.


    Let Indra run the army.


    Under such a premise, even the return of mahasaro had little influence on the army. It can be said that the means of emperor Xu have succeeded in raising mahasara.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another sentry came in.


    The sentinel looked in a hurry, entered the headquarters, knelt down on one knee and reported: "fourth prince, the front-line sentinel sent back the news. Outside Qin''s barracks, a soldier escorted mahasaro to Tianmen Mountain. In the rear of mahasaro, there are soldiers led by Zhang Xiu


    As soon as the words came out, everyone took a breath.


    Looking at emperor Xu one by one, they were even more surprised.


    It''s amazing.


    Every move of the Qin army was not concealed from emperor Xu, but was guessed by Emperor Xu. Under such a premise, the generals in the army are more down-to-earth, because the emperor must be too powerful.


    Indra was also greatly inspired and happy. For Indra, the more powerful his teachers were, the more beneficial they were.


    Emperor Xu waved the sentry to step down, stood up and said, "you guys, since mahasaro has come to Tianmen Mountain now. Then, meet mahasaro. In my early years, I heard about mahasaro''s reputation. He was sitting in the city of Lanshi, which made the development of Lanshi excellent. Now, see you. "


    Indra also got up and said, "go


    With Indra and Dixu, they walked out of the headquarters and came to the position at the bottom of the mountain. This position, is the bottom of a trench, with this trench, Kushan''s army, can use Tianmen Mountain to guard.


    The crowd arrived and waited quietly.


    Waiting for mahasaro.

 Chapter 1323

    Indra, Dixu and others were all at the foot of the mountain. Not long after that, we could see that soldiers had already come with mahasara. At this moment, mahasaro''s face was actually quite uneasy.


    The reason is simple. He is worried that he will not be able to order the army of Lancaster city to surrender. Even if jinnaluo is his confidant, but people''s mind changes, in case jinnaluo suddenly disobeys orders, mahasaro is in danger.


    If he doesn''t finish the mission, he may die.


    When mahasara came to the foot of Tianmen Mountain, he looked up to the mountain and exclaimed, "I am mahasara, the Lord of the city of LanChi. The soldiers on Tianmen Mountain listen and ask jinnaluo to talk to the city leader. "


    The emperor had to stand in the ditch, put his hands on the mud, and said, "Lord of mahasara, jinnalo, disobeyed the military order and was killed by the fourth Prince Indra. According to the order of the fourth prince, the army of Lanshi city has been taken over. At the same time, you, mahasaro, are no longer the Lord of the city


    Brush!


    Mahasaro''s face changed slightly.


    The fourth prince, Indra, came to the city.


    What''s going on.


    Mahasara, if you remember correctly, Indra was in the south of Kushan, mainly in the area of the city of Magadha. But now, all of a sudden, Indra came to the northern city of Lanshi.


    Mahasaro was very old when he heard the voice, and cried out, "who is the speaker?"


    Emperor must say: "old man, Emperor must!"


    "Emperor Xu!"


    Mahasaro exclaimed in surprise. He suddenly came back to himself and said, "emperor Xu, you are emperor Xu. You are not willing to be an official, but you prefer to live in seclusion in the countryside. Now, you work for the fourth Prince Indra. "


    You know, the emperor must be the wise man of Kushan.


    It is said that there is no plan.


    He worked for Indra, the fourth prince, and killed his general jinnaluo. Then, it may be quite difficult for mahasaro to force the army of Lancaster city to surrender.


    Mahasara took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Indra, Dixu, I am the leader of the city of LanChi. This is decided by the emperor, not by your fourth prince. I am still the Lord of Lancaster


    After a pause, mahasaro continued: "listen to the army of Langshi city on the mountain. The Lord of this city orders you to lay down your arms and surrender immediately. His majesty said, "as long as you surrender, let bygones be bygones."


    "Modi can''t stop the Qin army!"


    "Wu jiutu can''t stop the Qin army!"


    "Wei sudiva can''t stop the Qin army."


    "You too!"


    "In front of the front of the former army, even if you want to resist, it is a stubborn resistance. If we surrender now, we can not only save our lives, but also return to our homes. "


    Mahasaro exclaimed, "now the Lord of this city orders you to lay down your arms and surrender."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Emperor Xu heard this, he began to laugh.


    His voice is very hoarse, but hoarse voice, echoing in the air, the words with irony, but it is clear into the ears of mahasaro, making mahasaro extremely angry.


    Emperor Xu laughed and said, "mahasaro, you really regard yourself as a character. Without the support of the army, especially you, a self willed and self righteous defeated general, talk about and command the army. "


    At this point, the emperor must turn his eyes, look at all the soldiers on the mountain, and shout: "sons of Lanshi, do you say that mahasaro is still the Lord of Lanshi?"


    "No!"


    The general of the army took the lead in speaking.


    "No!"


    "Mahasaro is not the Lord of the city!"


    One after another, the cries echoed in the air. More and more soldiers were shouting in a uniform voice. The cry, like the sound of gold and iron, reverberated in the air and clearly spread to mahasaro''s ears.


    At this moment, mahasaro was extremely embarrassed.


    He was taken from power.


    Indra and Dixu went to the army and directly usurped the military power. Then they killed jinnaro and bewitched the army. All the soldiers in the army followed Indra. All his arrangements were useless.


    He lost everything.


    Emperor Xu struck mahasara and looked into the distance. He saw another group of soldiers killed in the rear.


    This is a soldier of Qin army.


    Emperor Xu found that the Qin army was coming.


    The emperor must raise his hand and press down to signal the soldiers to be quiet. At this moment, all the soldiers around soon stopped shouting, and all of them calmed down and looked at emperor Xu.


    These soldiers now respect emperor Xu very much.


    They are willing to listen to the emperor.


    Emperor Xu exclaimed: "sons, mahasaro has surrendered to the Qin army and become a running dog of the Qin army. Mahasaro was willing to submit to the Qin army and be a running dog of the Qin army, but I didn''t want to. I vowed to fight with the Qin army to the end. How dare you fight? "


    "Fight to the end!"Indra immediately tried to roar in agreement.


    "Fight to the end!"


    "Fight to the end!"


    More and more soldiers followed suit, and their voices echoed in the air. The soldier''s cry made his will more firm. Because through such an operation, mahasaro was just like that in the eyes of all the soldiers in Lancaster city.


    Mahasaro had no influence on the city of Ramsey.


    This is the intention of emperor Xu.


    Zhang Xiu with soldiers, sitting in the rear, he looked at the front Na Na silent mahasaro, frown. Because mahasara, who has always been quite powerful, was crushed in front of emperor Xu from beginning to end, and there was no room to fight back.


    Such mahasaro is disappointing.


    Similarly, it also makes people wary of emperor Xu. This is not a simple character.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu wondered why the army of LAN''s city suddenly withdrew. At that time, the royal guards inquired about the news, but they did not. Now, Zhang Xiu understood all about it. She knew why the army of LAN''s city would withdraw, and then she began to turn attack into defense.


    This is the arrangement of Indra and Dishu.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t get involved in the front line for the time being. She was still watching in the rear.


    Mahasaro, now, is very embarrassed.


    He looked back at the direction of Zhang Xiu, his eyes are more worried, because Zhang Xiu is afraid to kill him. The problem is that all the officers and men of the Blue City Army on Tianmen Mountain defected and turned their backs on him.


    He had no chance to persuade him to surrender.


    He stood at the foot of Tianmen Mountain, like a joke.


    Mahasaro could not advance or retreat now, but he could not retreat, so he said again, "emperor Xu, you have seized the command of our army of LanChi city by means of conspiracy. But in the city of Lanchester, I am still the Lord of the city. Even if you want to take control of the city under the command of Indra, it is impossible


    Emperor Xu said faintly: "mahasaro, you are also the Lord of a city. Unexpectedly, you are so naive. A city master who betrayed Lan''s city and wanted to surrender to Daqin. Do you think the nobles of LAN''s city will honor you? Without the support of the nobles in LAN''s city, are you still the Lord of LAN''s city? "


    Mahasaro listened to the words of emperor Xu, and his heart was like a needle. Because every word of emperor Xu seemed to be stabbed in his heart, so that he had no reason to fight back.


    Emperor must win in all directions.


    With a gloomy look on his face, mahasaro turned his head and looked back again. He saw the position of Zhang Xiu not far away, with a helpless look on his face. Because he has spent a lot of time, so far there is no way, he is really hit by Emperor must have no way.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu came forward with the soldiers.


    He looked up at the mountain and made sure that even if there were cannons on the mountain, it was impossible to bombard the foot of the mountain. The only way is to shoot with bow and arrow, but Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    Zhang Xiu straddled the horse. He took a breath and exclaimed, "who is emperor Xu?"


    Emperor Xu is the sage of Kushan.


    Just now, after hearing this, Zhang Xiu had already inquired about the situation and roughly knew about Emperor Xu. For such a wise man, Zhang Xiu''s heart, but also play the spirit to face, because this person is not simple.


    Emperor Xu didn''t know Zhang Xiu. He could see her clothes and the soldiers around her, and exclaimed: "I didn''t expect that his majesty, the emperor of Qin, came to the battlefield in person. As the king of a country, the most basic principle is not to let yourself get into trouble. "


    After a pause, the emperor said, "but as the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, you are in danger and put yourself in front of the enemy''s mouth. You are so unwise. From this point of view, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty is no better


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu also laughed.


    There was disdain in the laughter.


    Previously, it was the emperor who mocked mahasaro. Today, it is Zhang Xiu who mocks emperor Xu.


    As a wise man, Emperor Xu knew that Zhang Xiu''s smile was purposeful. However, as a wise man, the emperor had enough wisdom to face it, so he asked: "the emperor of Qin is so laughing. I don''t know why he is laughing?"


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "what I smile at is that your emperor needs a counselor. How can you know how to adapt to circumstances. It''s really good for the emperor to sit behind the town and not stand under the dangerous wall. "


    "But when the emperor comes to the front, it can boost the morale. If we simply have to consider that the emperor is not in favor of the dangerous wall, there will be too much decadent gas. The craftsmanship gas is too heavy. "


    "The way to use troops is to use the false and the real."


    "That''s how it is when I come to the battlefield."


    "It''s ridiculous that you, Emperor Xu, are known as the wise of Kushan. What you see is what you think. But what you haven''t considered is too much. When it comes to the use of troops, you are a teacher in front of me. "


    With a faint smile, Zhang Xiu said: "no wonder, your emperor must be at this age now, and then he came out of the mountain to serve the fourth Prince Indra. So you''re just like that. ""If you were emperor Xu, you were really powerful. As early as 30 years ago, or 40 years ago, you would have been famous all over the world and could live in the direction of a country. But now you have the name of an imperial sage. "


    "The name, in particular, came from rejecting vesuviva."


    "You are not so good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are full of deep disdain.


    He despised emperor Xu.


    At this moment, after listening to Zhang Xiu''s words, the emperor had a look of anger on her face. Even if the emperor must be in front of the collapse of Mount Tai and color unchanged, but in Zhang Xiu''s words stimulation, but also can''t bear, heart has had fluctuations.

 Chapter 1324

    Indra frowned.


    When mahasaro faced emperor Xu, he was completely hanged and had no strength to fight back. But Zhang Xiu was very powerful. With one mouth, he stirred up emperor Xu''s mood and even attacked the place where emperor Xu was most proud.


    He was most proud of the emperor''s refusal of Vasudeva. Because when she was in power, she was the only one in the world, and no one dared to disobey her. But emperor Xu not only rejected her, but also made her more respectful.


    This is the reason why the emperor should be famous in the world.


    However, Zhang Xiu said that emperor Xu had been unknown for several decades, because she refused to accept Wei sudiva.


    This is on the heart of emperor Xu.


    Emperor Xu took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and said: "Zhang Xiu, you are just showing off your tongue. Before the battle between the two armies, it was useless for you to show off like this. The battle between the two armies depends on their real strength. Without strength, everything is false. "


    Zhang Xiu heard emperor Xu''s words and laughed again.


    There was a lot of laughter.


    Clear to the ear of emperor Xu.


    Emperor Xuming knows that this is Zhang Xiu''s pretense, which he did on purpose. However, he can''t swallow it. Even though Zhang Xiu still has a back hand, Emperor Xuming still scolds: "Zhang Xiu, in battle, this pretense of laughing is just a pretense, which makes people laugh. As an emperor of a country, there is really no majesty of an emperor of a country. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "the majesty of a king, ha, that''s the funniest thing I''ve ever heard. What should the majesty of a king look like? Is it necessary to be superior, to ignore the life and death of thousands of people, to decide the death of thousands of people in a word, and to show the emperor''s dignity in a word? "


    "No, it''s not a king."


    "This is just a insensitive dignitary, not a king of a country."


    "Perhaps such an emperor is the Kushan emperor."


    "But I, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, don''t care how dignified or dignified I am? I, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, care about the well-being and livelihood of thousands of people. "


    Zhang Xiu continued with a frank talk: "the people live well, the family and the country are peaceful, and the whole country is in good weather. That''s the majesty of a country''s monarch, and that''s the bearing of a country''s monarch."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "as for what you just said, I''ll show off. But you seem to have forgotten that just now, when mahasaro came to recruit and surrender the soldiers of LAN''s city and ordered them to surrender, your emperor must also uttered a lot of words


    "You show off, too."


    "You''re also posing."


    "You''re making people laugh, too."


    "Why is it that when you come here, you can only do what others can''t do? You frown and whisper with a spirit. Other people''s low brow and light language, is the lack of masculinity, is sissy; you laugh loudly, is the immortal posture, wise bearing. If other people laugh loudly, they will be as mad as ghosts, or worse than dogs. "


    "These two different standards are really disgusting!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are more and more passionate, and the words point directly at emperor Xu''s heart, like a knife. The cold words made the emperor suddenly frown and clench his fist.


    Emperor must now, already incomparably angry.


    He was provoked to anger.


    Even if emperor Xu is a wise man, at this moment, he is also a failure. At this moment, the emperor''s beard, in the eyes of the soldiers in LAN''s city, completely dissipated the mysterious atmosphere that lingered around them.


    It turns out that emperor Xu is also a man.


    It turned out that emperor Xu was not at his wit''s end.


    At the same time, the officers and men of LAN''s city were more awed when they looked at Zhang Xiu. It''s really Zhang Xiu''s mouth. It''s really powerful. It can be called tricky, because even emperor Xu is not Zhang Xiu''s opponent. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu is powerful.


    Zhang Xiu brushed her big sleeve and said again, "emperor Xu, Emperor Xu, you are an old man. Since you are an elder, you should be more clear that you should not measure yourself and others by double standards, but by the same standards. I hope that you can learn from a cut. That''s all. Goodbye


    With that, Zhang Xiu turned and left.


    The soldiers escorted mahasaro and then left.


    Zhang Xiu is very clear that under the leadership of emperor Xu and Indra, the other side is adopting the strategy of defending as an attack, with the help of Tianmen Mountain to block his army''s attack, so it''s impossible to persuade him to surrender now, so he simply withdraws.


    "Damn, damn Zhang Xiu!"


    Emperor Xu is very angry. He looks at Zhang Xiu leaving. He is impulsive. He wants to order an attack immediately and let his soldiers attack Zhang Xiu and kill him at the foot of Tianmen Mountain.


    However, Emperor must also know that this is impossible.


    On the one hand, Zhang Xiu''s side is protected by soldiers; on the other hand, since Zhang Xiu has come, there must be an army to meet her.


    So cover up doesn''t work.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    The emperor''s chest was very short of breath.


    He has been a hermit in Kushan for many years and has been sought after by countless people. Even if the former Kushan emperor, vesuvata, went to see him, it was three points of courtesy. Under his words, Vasudeva highly respected him, praised him as a sage and praised him highly. But here in Zhang Xiu, he was mercilessly attacked, was denounced as worthless.This is intolerable to Emperor Xu.


    As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.


    Emperor must be a wise man, but there is a man who is more powerful than his mouth. A heart in his heart, then for a long time difficult to calm down, more lost balance.


    Indra came forward and said with relief, "teacher, don''t care what Zhang Xiu said. Zhang Xiu has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, and he deliberately criticizes the teacher, so don''t worry about it. "


    "Poof!"


    As soon as the emperor heard Indra''s words, he couldn''t help but feel that his throat was sweet and a mouthful of blood was sprayed out.


    At this moment, the emperor''s body was tottering.


    "Teacher, teacher, what''s the matter with you?"


    When he saw this, he was even more alarmed. Dishu is the teacher of Indra and the backbone of Indra. If anything goes wrong with Dishu, Indra is extremely worried.


    Emperor Xu looked at Indra and the people around him, and sighed.


    He is a man of great pride.


    Just now Indra said that Zhang Xiuya had a sharp mouth and deliberately criticized emperor Xu, persuading him not to care. But it''s true that emperor Xu is good at using his mouth. He also has sharp teeth and sharp mouth, but he can''t refute Zhang Xiu''s words. On the contrary, he was beaten black and blue by Zhang Xiu and couldn''t fight back against her.


    It can be said that Indra''s relief, on the contrary, indirectly believed that his emperor must be inferior to Zhang Xiu.


    This is the place to crack down on emperor Xu.


    Because of the fact that Dharma is still like this, it can be imagined that all the soldiers around him think that he is inferior to Zhang Xiu. Such a state of mind was the reason why the emperor had to vomit blood.


    Indra helped emperor Xu and took a silk towel to wipe the blood from his mouth.


    "I''m fine!"


    The emperor stretched out his hand, opened Indra''s hand, and then stood on his own. He was still standing in the ditch, his face was cold and solemn, and there was a voice on the ground: "the fight between me and Zhang Xiu is just beginning. Even so, Zhang Xiu is the first to win, but this is just the beginning, and the battle is still very long. "


    Although emperor Xu''s mind was unbalanced and he vomited blood, he soon adjusted.


    It''s just the surface of a fight.


    The real confrontation is the ownership of Tianmen Mountain.


    This is the real war.


    Indra also agreed and said, "what the teacher said is true. We have more than 200000 troops in Tianmen Mountain. This war is just the beginning. If Zhang Xiu wants to go south to LAN''s city, he must seize Tianmen Mountain. But we are here, and the battle of Zhang Xiu must be a battle of hatred. "


    Emperor must take a long breath, he said confidently: "this battle, we will win."


    "I will win!"


    Indra answered.


    The rest of the generals agreed. For these generals, although the mystery of emperor Xu has been reduced, and the aura of the wise men who are helpless has been reduced, they also have to follow emperor Xu.


    They are aristocrats.


    Naturally, they are hostile to Zhang Xiu, so even if Zhang Xiu attacks emperor Xu, they still have to stand on the side of emperor Xu and fight against Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1325

    Qin army camp, Chinese army big account.


    After Zhang Xiu withdraws with mahasara, she asks the soldiers to detain him. In his heart, mahasaro was extremely frightened, worried that he would be killed, and tried his best to roar, hoping to see Zhang Xiu, but Zhang Xiu didn''t pay any attention to mahasaro.


    Because Indra and Dixu have mastered the army of the city of Ramsey, mahasara is useless.


    So I left it aside.


    When Zhang Xiu returns to the camp, she shouts Pang Tong and Guo Jia to discuss the next arrangement. Pang Tong and Guo Jia didn''t know about the situation of the army of Lan Shi City, so Zhang Xiu first gave a brief and comprehensive account of the changes of the army of Lan Shi City, and finally said: "now the army of Lan Shi City has changed. What do you think we should do next? Or how to break the game. "


    Pang Tong and Guo Jia were both quick thinking.


    Both of them did not expect such an accident to happen to the army of the city. In particular, the appearance of emperor''s beard made up for the lack of wise men in the army of LAN''s city.


    On this premise, it is not easy to defeat the blue city army.


    After a long time, Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, Indra and the emperor must lead more than 200000 troops to mount Tianmen. According to your observation, there are a lot of soldiers in Tianmen Mountain. Then, if we want to cross Tianmen Mountain, we must destroy the army of Lanshi city which occupies Tianmen Mountain. Today''s war is concentrated on Tianmen Mountain. I''m afraid we have to make a strong attack. "


    Guo Jia also said: "Your Majesty, I also agree with Pang Shiyuan''s analysis. In this war, we have to win Tianmen Mountain to have a breakthrough. Otherwise, our army will not be able to capture Tianmen Mountain. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in this way, there must be a tough battle."


    "Yes


    Pang Tong and Guo Jia answered together.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, and said: "first, consider the reality of the army in LAN''s city. Today, the army will take a rest. Early tomorrow morning, our army will set out to attack Tianmen Mountain and try to find out the reality of Tianmen Mountain. "


    Pang Tong and Guo Jia agreed.


    Now there is a large army of Lanshi city on Tianmen Mountain, so it is almost difficult to capture it directly.


    It can only be a strong attack.


    After discussing the details with Pang Tong and Guo Jia, Zhang Xiu arranged for people to call Ganning, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan and tell them about the attack tomorrow. Ganning asked for a fight without hesitation and was willing to send vanguards to attack Tianmen Mountain.


    Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan also asked to fight.


    But in the end, Zhang Xiu agreed to let Gan Ning''s Army take the lead.


    Take the lead.


    After everything was settled, everyone went to prepare separately.


    All night long.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    The day just dawned, Zhang Xiu''s barracks, has sounded the mighty drums. With the sound of the drum, the officers and men of the army gathered, and Zhang Xiu led the army to the Tianmen Mountain.


    The army was stationed far away, and there was no redundant words. The army under Ganning directly went into the battlefield and launched an attack. The attack was a strong attack, with waves of soldiers charging upward. Not only that, the soldiers were also equipped with grenades to capture the trenches during the attack.


    The soldiers of blue city on the mountain resisted the attack with all their strength. In particular, although there is no such simple and easy-to-use weapon as a grenade, the troops of lanchtown city also use gunpowder to make explosive packages, which are directly thrown out after being ignited and thrown into the attacking crowd to block the attack.


    The two sides took Tianmen Mountain as their stronghold and kept fighting.


    Gan Ning''s soldiers killed several times in the trenches, but the soldiers in LAN''s city, constantly replenished, beat down the Qin soldiers who rushed to the trenches.


    After a day of fighting, both sides have their own losses.


    Ganning''s army failed to capture Tianmen Mountain.


    Gan Ning was very angry in his eyes, but he didn''t win it, so he came to Zhang Xiu and said: "Your Majesty, let the soldiers of the last general attack all night. Even if this Tianmen Mountain is as hard as iron, it will be gnawed down. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "withdraw first!"


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning should hold his fist.


    The army retreated six miles to the camp. Zhang Xiu went back to the central army to gather Pang Tong and Guo Jia together to discuss countermeasures and analyze the war situation during the day.


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly: "Your Majesty, during the first battle of the day, we saw the situation of the soldiers in the blue city on the mountain. Both sides are excellent at fighting. We rushed up several times and were beaten down. "


    "Second, the commander on the mountain is very calm, and if there is a loophole, he can immediately add it. Such exquisite command makes it difficult for our soldiers to tear up the defense of Tianmen Mountain. "


    "Third, there are a lot of troops in Lanshi city on the mountain. Even after the loss, the energy sources are constantly replenished. In particular, the other side is in the trenches, and the artillery is not easy to bomb. "


    Guo Jia had a dignified look in her eyes and said, "this battle is really hard to fight. It''s not easy to deal with this army of Lanshi, which is under the command of Indra and the emperor. "He agreed with his analysis of the current situation. Tianmen Mountain is a hard nut to chew. Now, it can only be a strong attack. "


    Zhang Xiu frowned slightly.


    If he wants to capture Kushan, he can''t stop at Tianmen Mountain. Even if Tianmen Mountain is extremely strong, he will take it down. It is impossible for Daqin to stop at Tianmen Mountain.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "even if it''s a strong attack, we have to capture Tianmen Mountain. But in this case, I''ve come up with a way to push up the mountain. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, what''s your plan?"


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, please show me."


    Zhang xiuzhengse said: "we want to push up the mountain. If we go up directly, we will be targeted. Whether it''s bow and arrow, or challenge wood, it will cause us great damage. Even the other side, and the explosive bag made of gunpowder, can cause us harm. So I decided to arrange auxiliary soldiers, dig trenches from the foot of the mountain, and then start to push up the mountain. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "our trench, a little bit up.". After getting close to the other side, you can transport troops continuously, and then fight on the mountain. Even if the other side has the advantage of occupying the commanding height, we can continue to push forward and finally capture Tianmen Mountain after our troops are transported up. "


    Pang Tong frowned.


    Zhang Xiu''s plan is indeed feasible, but in fact, such a plan is also based on a white-edged battle, which is still a solid killing attack.


    This is also a strong attack.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, such a strong attack is not very beneficial to us. If you just capture the city of Lanshi, you will not be afraid of the loss and can attack Tianmen Mountain. But the problem is that after we have captured Lanshi City, we still have to go south and capture the whole Kushan. If there is only one Tianmen Mountain, it will cost us a lot, which is unfavorable. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said: "so my suggestion is to stay and look for opportunities in the present situation. We want to attack Kushan. Now there is no thunder city. It can be said that we have successfully established ourselves in guishuang, so we don''t have to worry about the lack of logistics. "


    Pang Tong echoed: "Your Majesty, I agree with you. Today, although the attack on Tianmen Mountain is lost, it may not be that there is no chance to conquer it. Just wait a little longer, there''s always a chance. A war can not be completed overnight. "


    Zhang Xiuchang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I''m a little anxious, but we''ll stay here for a while. Even if the troops in LAN''s city change their commanders, we will eventually win Tianmen Mountain. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    In fact, Guo Jia is worried that Zhang Xiu will go her own way. Once he goes out to attack Tianmen Mountain, with the strength of Daqin, Guo Jia believes that Daqin will surely seize Tianmen Mountain.


    But after taking Tianmen Mountain, the strength will be weakened. At that time, the army will have to go to Lanshi city. When they attack the strong city of Lanshi city again, they will attack again. At that time, they will be weak.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, Wang Yue''s voice came in.


    The curtain of the barracks door was lifted. Wang Yue strode in and said, "Your Majesty, Kunda is outside the barracks. He asked to see your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "please!"


    Wang Yue to the letter, Zhang Xiu''s heart, but some doubt, Kunda should be in the city of blue, how suddenly to the front line. Just thinking about Kunda''s coming from LAN''s city, Zhang Xiu has a lot of hope in her heart.


    Maybe Kunda is the breakthrough.


    Pang Tong and Guo Jia also heard about Kunda''s assassination of Zhang Xiu. Now when they hear Kunda coming, they are looking forward to the news from Kunda.

 Chapter 1326

    Soon, Kunda entered.


    Today''s Kunda has excellent spirit, especially the light in her eyes, showing hope and fighting spirit. After he surrendered to Zhang Xiu, he found the direction in his heart and was no longer at a loss.


    Kunda, in particular, has gathered a large number of like-minded people in a short period of time when he returned to the city of Lancaster. At this time, Kunda realized that he had so many like-minded brothers.


    It turned out that so many people were dissatisfied with the caste system of Kushan.


    So Kunda is active.


    Kunda has made great achievements in a short time in Lancaster city. The power he has mastered is quite extraordinary. If it breaks out, it will be earth shaking.


    Kunda was a little thinner. When he saw Zhang Xiu, he pushed the gold mountain and fell down on his knees like a jade pillar. He said, "Kunda, the grasshopper, please see your majesty. May your majesty live forever."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "get up and talk!"


    "Thank you, your majesty!"


    Kunda stood up, hands down, and stooped, rather restrained. For Zhang Xiu, he is not only in awe, but also in reverence, because the existence of Zhang Xiu makes Kunda see hope.


    Zhang Xiu asks a way: "say, you come to front line, can have what matter?"


    Kunda replied, "Your Majesty, the reason why the grassroots came to the front line is that our strength in Lancaster city has reached a limit. Now, it''s not easy to think about continuing development. And our strength is already very strong. "


    After a pause, Kunda said: "if something happens, it will be enough to win the city and wipe out the nobles of the city. We in the city of Lanchester mean to ask your majesty if we need to work in the city of Lanchester and share the pressure of your majesty. "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the words, her mind suddenly opened.


    Opportunity!


    Unexpectedly, when he was worried about how to deal with the army of blue city, Kunda gave him a chance.


    This is the breakthrough.


    It''s an opportunity to break the deadlock.


    Instead of answering Kunda immediately, Zhang Xiu turned to Guo Jia and Pang Tong and said, "fengxiao and Shiyuan, Kunda has brought good news. What do you think we should do now? "


    Guo Jia said: "in reply to your majesty, I think this is an excellent opportunity. LAN''s city is in the rear of Tianmen Mountain. Once Lan''s city falls, it is tantamount to cutting off Indra''s retreat. At that time, even Indra and the emperor will have to fight to the death. However, under the turmoil of military morale, the other side can not defend Tianmen Mountain. "


    Pang Tong continued: "Your Majesty, after the incident in LAN''s city, you can even cut off each other''s food supply. You know, a team of 200000 people consumes countless food and grass every day. Under normal circumstances, this top for more than half a month, we have to send food once. Once the food supply was cut off, Indra could not support it. So now, it''s imperative for the city to start


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "however, in the case of LAN''s city, we must win. We can only win but not lose. Once the blue city incident fails, it will also have an impact on us. Moreover, after the success of the uprising in Ramsey City, it had to be able to resist the retreating army of Indra. Otherwise, once Indra''s army conquers the city, it will resist with the help of the city


    Kunda stood at the bottom. Because he had a translator around him, he could also know what Pang Tong and Guo Jia said, so he broke in and said, "we have a huge power in LAN''s city. Once something happens, we will succeed. Even if Indra leads his troops back, we are not afraid. "


    Kunda was also aware of the affairs of Indra and TISU.


    After all, when Indra and Dixu went north, they first went to the city of Lanshi and met with the nobles of Lanshi.


    So Kunda knew about Indra.


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Kunda, it''s not that she doesn''t trust you. It''s just that in case, all possible loopholes must be blocked. Today, the war here in Tianmen Mountain is very stalemate. In a short time, our Qin army was unable to conquer Tianmen Mountain. So the victory or defeat of the city of Lancaster is the key to the whole battlefield. "


    Kunda nodded and said, "the grass people understand."


    Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart and then said, "Shiyuan, would you like to go to LAN''s city in person. You and Kunda will work together to complete the layout of blue city. "


    "Yes, sir


    Pang Tong is duty bound.


    Moreover, Pang Tong was willing to sneak into Lan''s city and the enemy''s rear.


    Zhang Xiu said: "do you still need people to cooperate?"


    Pang Tong thought about it and said, "please come with me. With Shia, many things are easy to do."


    "Sure!"


    Zhang Xiu agreed directly.


    "Thank you


    Pang Tong bowed his thanks.


    Zhang Xiu immediately told Kunda about her decision. Although Kunda hesitated in her eyes, it was Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, so Kunda agreed unconditionally.


    Kunda hesitated because he was worried that Pang Tong and prehistoric Abbas would be constrained in the future. After all, he is from the Qin Dynasty. He is from the kingdom of heaven. He is only from the city of LAN.Kunda yearns for freedom.


    He looked forward to the freedom and equality of the city of Lancaster and the abolition of nobles and slaves.


    However, Kunda''s heart is still a little low self-esteem when he meets Daqin people. After all, he used to be an assassin. But Pang Tong was an important official of the Qin Dynasty. With such people, Kunda was under great pressure.


    However, this idea did not last for a long time, and Kunda''s doubts were completely dispelled.


    After Kunda, Pang Tong and Shi''a left, they took a small road to return to Lanshi city. Pang Tong said a few words, which soon drew up the relationship with Kunda. Even Pang Tong intended to do it, making the relationship between the two sides very harmonious.


    Under such a premise, Kunda is completely relieved.


    Pang Tong also revealed Shi A''s identity.


    When Kunda learned that Shia was also an assassin, a master of swordsmanship, his heart was itching. As a master of swordsmanship in LAN''s city, he is very happy when he meets a master of swordsmanship in Daqin. When the three of them stopped to have a rest in the evening, Kunda couldn''t wait to discuss with Shia.


    The so-called duel is a contest of martial arts.


    Shia''s swordsmanship has already entered the arena, especially under the guidance of Wang Yue in recent years. It''s very powerful to wield a sword with both hardness and softness.


    Kunda is also very good at fencing.


    But after Kunda and Shi a fight, in Shi A''s hand, support less than 60 moves to lose.


    Kunda looked at the tip of the sword close to his neck, not only not depressed, but excited and excited. With an excited look, he said, "master Shi''a''s swordsmanship is really powerful. Swordsmanship is as good as one. There is no flaw in it. As far as treachery is concerned, it can be said that it is extremely sinister and haunting; as far as hardness is concerned, it is extremely overbearing, just like a vast sun. This sword skill is really amazing. "


    Shia listened to this, but he said with a smile: "Kunda, your swordsmanship is also extraordinary. However, your swordsmanship is straight forward and backward. You don''t have many moves, and you don''t have the change of Hunyuan. There should be no famous master to guide you. You should think about it yourself. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    Kunda replied busily.


    He was born as an ordinary man. It''s all up to him to teach swordsmanship.


    Shi a said: "to tell you the truth, my swordsmanship is very good, but compared with your Majesty''s martial arts, I''m afraid I can''t do anything in front of your majesty. Of course, when it comes to the subtlety of swordsmanship, I''m not anxious about my mentor. I''ll introduce my mentor to you after the end of LAN''s city. When the time comes, please give me some advice. "


    "Really?"


    Kunda was very excited and happy to hear that.


    This is his chance.


    Kunda is also very thoughtful about his own swordsmanship. Now his swordsmanship has reached a bottleneck, which can''t be broken through. If you can get the guidance of a famous teacher, then you will be able to go further.


    Shia said with a smile: "the teacher is not a person who complains, nor is he a person who cherishes himself. What''s more, you have the talent of swordsmanship, and your master will give you some advice. Maybe the teacher will accept you as an apprentice. "


    Kunda quickly thanks.


    His face was even more filled with anticipation. When he looked at Shia, he was full of gratitude.


    Pang Tong looked in his eyes and looked at Shi Aotou with admiration. At this time, Kunda is closer to Kunda, which makes Kunda fully recognize Daqin. Then, the next action in Lanshi city will be easier and will not be hindered.

 Chapter 1327

    Pang Tong, Kunda and Shi''a are on their way. In a short time, they have already arrived at LAN''s city. The scale of LAN''s city is much larger than that of Wulei City, and it is very prosperous with people coming and going.


    Standing outside the city, Kunda looked at the solid city and said, "Pang Jun Shi, this is the blue city. It can be said that the firmness of LAN''s city can not be easily conquered by 30000 or 50000 people. In particular, there are countless nobles in the city of LAN. These people, who have lived in Lanshi city for generations, are very rich, and their families have accumulated countless grains and money. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "after the change of LAN''s city, all the money and grain will be collected. Then, the government will provide temporary relief to the people in LAN''s city


    Kunda asked, "I also know the way that no thunder city provides work relief. But why don''t we just open warehouses and release grain so that people can get grain? "


    Pang Tong said: "pie falling from the sky will not be cherished. Only those who work hard can know how hard it is. In addition, work relief can also promote the development of Lanshi city. If everyone wants to get something for nothing, I''m afraid it won''t take long for the city to decay. "


    Kunda praised: "what Pang Junshi said is true."


    He agreed with Pang Tong.


    Suddenly, Kunda seemed to think of something. He frowned a little, and there was a shadow between his eyebrows.


    Pang Tong looked at his words and said, "Kunda, is there anything else?"


    Kunda sighed: "it''s really powerful for the city to resist the power of the nobility. But now, there are some differences, and that''s what I want to solve when I go back to blue city. "


    Pang Tong said, "what''s the difference?"


    Kunda said: "there are two groups of forces against the aristocracy in LAN''s city. One of them wanted to submit to the great Qin Dynasty, with the help of the great Qin Dynasty to wipe out the nobles in LAN''s city, and then abolish the caste system. "


    "I am the leader of this group."


    "The other group thinks that the affairs of the people in Lancaster should be decided by the people in Lancaster. Moreover, Lanshi city is the Lanshi city of Kushan. As a person of Kushan, he must never surrender to Daqin. Otherwise, the kusana people will no longer be kusana people. "


    "The people of this group hope to use their own strength to wipe out the nobles of Lanshi city."


    "Then, abolish the caste system."


    Kunda said slowly: "these forces, I call them natives. In fact, this native, led by cook Zhe, is also a little aristocrat. However, only his ancestors were aristocrats. By Cook''s generation, he was already a common pariah. But cook is quite capable, so when my contact person was ready to resist the aristocracy of blue city, cook also rose rapidly. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile, "brother Kunda, don''t worry. Your majesty sent me to solve these problems. Only when these problems are solved, can we truly destroy the aristocracy of LAN''s city. Otherwise, it will not be possible. "


    Kunda said: "well, it''s up to Mr. pang to persuade Mr. cook."


    Pang Tong said, "it''s my duty."


    Kunda changed his words and said, "there''s a general around cook. This man is very powerful. At that time, Lord Shi a should be careful. Maybe the other party will challenge him. "


    Shi ah said: "I can''t get it!"


    Now he is here to make contributions, so if the other party wants to challenge, he will let the other party see the power of the officials of the Qin Dynasty.


    Pang Tong took over and said, "brother Kunda, let''s go and talk as we go. As for cook, please tell me more about his life story, character, ways of dealing with people and so on


    "No problem!"


    Kunda nodded.


    As he spoke, he took Pang Tong and Shi''a into the city and went to the place where people gathered for discussion.


    Kunda and other gathering points against the nobles in LAN''s city were in a common people''s cave in LAN''s city. Such an area is extremely dirty and messy. It''s not to be found because it''s a pariah. But through a few alleys, came to a low yard, Kunda pushed the door into the yard, with Pang Tong and Shi a into the main hall of the house.


    The main hall is quite spacious, simple and grand.


    Kunda looked at the man at the door and said, "go down and call all the people in charge. He also sent orders to kuketuo that he must come to attend. The envoys of Daqin have already arrived. "


    "Yes


    The valet at the door turned to inform.


    Kunda looked at Pang Tong and said, "Pang Jun division, I have already informed him to go down. Now, just wait. It is estimated that everyone will arrive in another hour or so. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "brother Kunda, don''t worry. It''s not difficult for me. As for the kuktor you mentioned, I''ll take care of it. The first thing we need to do to get things started is internal stability. If we can''t unite as one, then we''re looking for a dead end. "


    Kunda said, "what Pang Jun Shi said is true."Pang Tong and Kunda chatted with each other, but they didn''t realize that time had passed. Only two quarters of an hour later, someone had come one after another. However, these people are all affiliated to Kunda. They respect Daqin very much, so they are very close to Pang Tong and others.


    Kunda introduced Pang Tong one by one, and Pang Tong responded one by one.


    "Ha ha ha After waiting so long, did you finally come? I''d like to see what kind of person Kunda has sent to Daqin. "


    Before the arrival of the people, the deep and loud voice came in first.


    In a moment, a middle-aged man with a big figure entered.


    This man is more than eight feet long and very big. His complexion is black, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a pair of dark eyes, showing a strong anger. In particular, a Polish curly hair, like a crazy lion, gives people the feeling of unrestrained incomparable.


    This is cook.


    Behind him were a group of people who belonged to cook.


    Cook stepped into the hall. When he saw Pang Tong with black hair and yellow skin, he burst into laughter and said with a sarcastic look: "I say that as the first powerful country in the world, Daqin is known as the kingdom of heaven. I didn''t expect that the people sent here were so ugly. I''m disappointed. I''m really disappointed! Kunda, you want to play for Daqin. It''s so disappointing. "


    Kunda frowned.


    He did not agree with what Cook said.


    Even if Pang Tong''s appearance is not outstanding, but he and Pang Tong contact, found that each other''s intelligence is excellent, is a really powerful person. It is extremely inappropriate to attack Pang Tong purely from his appearance.


    Pang Tong laughed when he saw this.


    His laughter from the beginning of the low, gradually rising voice, actually become passionate rampant. The wanton laughter reverberated in the hall, which also interrupted cook''s words, making cook''s face cold and said in a deep voice: "what are you laughing at?"


    After Pang Tong laughed, he said, "what I laugh at is that you are so stupid. If you want to fight against the nobles in LAN''s city, just like you cook, don''t fight. You can kill yourself with your sword, so as not to harm others and yourself. "


    Cook''s face was cold.


    He clenched his fist. It was clenched and his knuckles creaked.


    Cook said: "boy, be careful what comes out of your mouth. If you don''t make it clear, you''ll have to take five steps today. It''s easy for you to come here, but it''s impossible to leave the city. "


    When he spoke, cook had already swung his fist and looked like he was going to do it.

 Chapter 1328

    Pang Tong saw that cook was angry and wanted to kill, but he shook his head and said, "I just said one word. You cook is like choosing someone to kill. You should be ready to kill. Well, as soon as you get into the hall, you talk like crazy. Does that mean I should have killed you in the first place? "


    Cook frowned.


    Pang Tong''s words sound very reasonable, but cook is not a good speaker, so after hearing Pang Tong''s words, he did not immediately refute them.


    Pang Tong continued: "as soon as you enter, you will be arrogant. I said one thing, you''re going to kill me. Why can''t people talk about you when you can talk about others? What''s the standard? Are you a nobleman in the city of Lanchester


    Brush!


    Cook''s face changed slightly.


    The nobles in LAN''s city were the targets of their common crusade. Cook will never admit that he is a blue city aristocrat, because it will lead to his loss of leadership.


    "Don''t be alarmist, let alone bloody," Cook said


    Pang Tong said lightly: "how can I spit out blood? As soon as you enter the hall, no one can hear you. Or, you are habitually deaf and unwilling to admit what you have said. Or, you have forgotten the scene of clenching your fists and preparing to fight me. "


    Cook clenched his fist and let it go.


    It''s not that he didn''t want to do it. It''s that Pang Tong poked at his weakness as soon as he opened his mouth.


    It made him speechless.


    Cook flicked his sleeve and said, "I won''t argue with you. A Daqin person like you will just play tricks. What we need to do is not to talk, but to see blood with a knife. "


    Pang Tong said: "for the moment, let''s not care about the knife. As soon as you enter the hall, you will say that I am ugly and that you are disappointed in Daqin. "


    "I have to say that."


    "I have a saying in Daqin, which is that one leaf blinds one''s eyes and does not see Mount Tai. What''s more, it''s called" dog''s eyes look down on people. ". It''s blind to deny a person just by his appearance. "


    "Or, when I see you, kuktor, with dark skin, I think you''re a nigger, and I don''t think you''re worthy of being the leader of blue city."


    "What do you think?"


    Pang Tong shook his head and said, "if you have a preconceived idea, you can define it. There is no essential difference between this kind of practice and the aristocracy of the city of Lange. "


    "You are, at least, a man in charge, commanding many people."


    "As a general, you can''t judge people by their appearance."


    "As a general, you should be able to treat brothers equally and treat them like brothers. When dealing with things, even when it comes to yourself, you must deal with them calmly and not easily get angry. "


    Pang Tong said: "a general controlled by emotion is not a good leader. This kind of person, together with the excited general, will be spirited, which is the easiest to make a wrong decision. "


    Cook frowned.


    Pang Tong said that he was not qualified to be a leader.


    But cook couldn''t refute it.


    Even the generals behind cook seemed to agree at this time. They recognized Pang Tong''s words, because the battle on the battlefield, absolutely can not be emotional, must be rational response.


    Pang Tong continued: "cook, if you can''t restrain your anger, you can''t deal with it calmly. Well, you''re not a qualified leader. At best, you are just a tiger general who can take charge. "


    "No, I can deal with it calmly!"


    Cook''s face was solemn and he gave a resounding reply.


    He cannot be questioned.


    Once his position is shaken, it will never be tolerated by cook. Cook has always looked down upon Kunda. Even in his heart, he wanted to be the Lord of blue city and occupy a city.


    Pang Tong laughed and said, "cook, you are such a waste. You don''t work hard and you don''t share the grain. You have small eyes and a big nose, just like a pig. You''re such a nigger. You''re just rubbish. You were born to waste food. If I were you, I would have killed myself. You are a disgrace to the city. You are not worthy of being a member of the city. "


    "Boy, you deceive too much!"


    Cook''s face was full of anger. He immediately clenched his fist and was ready to fight again.


    Cook''s face turned red at this moment.


    He breathed, and his face was full of anger. It was Pang Tong''s words. It was too shocking. He didn''t give cook face at all. This kind of taunting and scolding in front of his face is like looking for death.


    Pang Tong said, "cook, you are wrong! As I said just now, can you deal with it calmly and restrain your anger. You said, you can deal with it calmly. So, let me test you. Unexpectedly, you are still angry. You, after all, can''t control anger. "Brush!


    Cook''s face changed slightly.


    It''s a hit!


    Unexpectedly, he fell into Pang Tong''s calculation again.


    At this moment, cook was afraid of Pang Tong. The other side looks ugly, but the means are endless. This mouth alone is extremely sharp and even puts him in a dilemma.


    In particular, what Pang Tong said just now was heard by the people under cook''s command. All of a sudden, these people were more in awe of Pang Tong than before.


    Because Pang Tong is not simple.


    Kunda is even more happy at the moment. He talks with Pang Tong and knows that Pang Tong is a brilliant man. But on weekdays, Kunda''s Pang Tong is gentle and elegant. Even though he looks ordinary, he gives people the feeling that he is as gentle as jade. Kunda likes talking to Pang Tong very much and always feels that he can learn a lot from Pang Tong.


    Today, Pang Tong''s performance has refreshed Kunda''s understanding of Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong was sent by Zhang Xiu.


    It''s not easy.


    Every word and deed has deep meaning.


    The people under Kunda''s command originally tended to submit to Daqin. Today, Pang Tong shows extraordinary means, and each one''s heart is more stable, because with people like Pang Tong, their heart is more calm.


    Pang Tong shook his sleeves and said, "cook, you are much worse after all. If you can be a leader now, it''s just a hero created by the times. You''re a long way off


    Cook didn''t like it.


    He didn''t want to be so oppressed and humiliated by Pang Tong.


    So cook snorted and said, "as I have just said, the incident in Lancaster city is not a simple talk, but a knife to see blood. You''re just being sharp. "


    Pang Tong heard the speech and laughed again.


    Cook was really naive. Once again, Pang Tong would not be polite.


    Pang Tong said: "when it comes to knife, when it comes to fighting, I really have to say it again, because it is a very important factor. If you fight on the battlefield, there is no one who dares to fight and has no high martial arts skills. It''s not easy to get things started. "


    Cook''s face flashed a touch of color, said: "you know good!"

 Chapter 1329

    Pang Tong sat upright, reached out and dusted his wrinkled clothes, then said, "well, what is cook''s opinion? How can he be regarded as daring to fight and kill? How can he be regarded as being highly skilled in martial arts?"


    Cook chuckled and said, "I''m a man who dares to fight and kill. If all of us who started the incident dare to fight and kill, just like me, then we will win this battle. Of course, it''s impossible. However, as long as we are led by me, we will win this battle. "


    Pang Tong sneered.


    It''s really self righteous.


    It''s so narcissistic.


    Pang Tong took a look at Kunda and shook his head in his heart. Among the people who are going to cause trouble, there are people like cook. It''s really a failure. If Pang Tong didn''t bring people with him, it would be extremely difficult for Kunda, cook and others to succeed. Even if the incident is successful, with such a group of people, such a mentality, we can not stay in the city.


    Pang Tong continued: "cook, but what if someone is more powerful than you? Does it mean that it will be easier for such people to lead the army to win


    "No way!"


    Cook shook his head and said, "my strength is the strongest. Even Kunda, compared with me, is a little inferior. In the whole army, I am the strongest and the most powerful man. "


    This is cook''s confidence.


    One of the reasons why the cook faction became the leader was that they were able to become the leader of the cook faction.


    It was cook who was strong enough to even suppress Kunda, so cook summoned a group of people to fight Kunda, making Kunda unable to unify the strength of the whole blue city.


    Pang Tong pointed to Shi''a and said, "his name is Shi''a, and he is my guard in LAN''s city. In the army of the Qin Dynasty, people like Shi a are not very good at martial arts. They can''t even rank in the top ten. You can imagine how weak his strength is. But Shia is stronger than you


    "No way!"


    Cook replied flatly, "my strength is the strongest."


    Pang Tong said: "there is no first in literature, no second in martial arts. It''s a simple truth. Let''s fight. In this way, the higher the lower the sentence. Cook, how dare you fight? Of course, if you are worried that you will not be defeated, we can not challenge you. "


    "Bullshit!"


    Cook clenched his fist and threw it to the ground with a voice: "I am sure to win this battle. If you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. Come on, I''ll see if you dare to fight. "


    Pang Tong laughed.


    Cook is just a warrior.


    It''s not worth mentioning.


    Pang Tong said, "Shi ah, it''s up to you. In this war, we can only win, not lose. Of course, you don''t need to kill cook. He is the main force of the incident after all. "


    "I understand!"


    Shia answered with a fist.


    He can distinguish between the heavy and the heavy, and he can pick up what to do and what not to do.


    Shia took out his Epee, put it in his hand, went to the hall, looked at cook and said, "please!"


    Now, he no longer uses the sword used by Wang Yue in the past, but walks out of his own way. Of course, he also uses Epee now, but for Shi Alai, his way of using Epee is different from Wang Yue.


    Cook snorted and said, "take my iron bar!"


    His weapon is an iron bar.


    It weighs more than 20 jin. It''s powerful and overbearing. When cook took the iron rod from the soldier''s hand, he said, "boy, I will teach you how to be a man. This life, even if the tiger across the river, to other people''s territory, also have to lie down to abide by the rules. If you want to jump, you have to chop your paws. "


    Shia said: "too much nonsense, let you first hand."


    The concise words were introduced into cook''s ears. With kuketuo''s fierce temper, he immediately became angry. He stamped his foot, lifted the iron bar in his hand, and rushed to shi''a.


    "Take it!"


    The iron bar in Cook''s hand is thrown down. A stick fell, with a whistling sound, and the iron stick passed in the air, leaving only a shadow. In the twinkling of an eye, the iron bar came to Shi A''s body.


    Shia didn''t evade or retreat in the face of this blow. He held the handle of Epee in both hands and swung it up. The edge of the sword is sharp. The next moment, the blade hit the iron bar.


    The two weapons collided with each other, making a sharp screech.


    More anti shock force, the impact of their hands with weapons.


    Cook grasped the iron bar''s hand and felt the anti shock force. Under the impact of the fierce force, he only felt a slight numbness in his palm. On the contrary, Shi a was not affected. He made a little effort on his hand, tilted the blade and cut it to the left along the iron bar.


    "Ho! Ho


    The blade scraped across the iron bar.


    He went straight to cook and held the iron bar in his hand.


    At this moment, cook was startled. He didn''t expect Shia''s reaction speed to be so fast. Kuketuo''s hands work hard, separate to block outside, and swing away the epee.Shi A''s sword, once in the air, is cut down again.


    This is the power of Cook''s extrapolation, the power of fighting, and the power of a sword, which is even more ferocious. Especially when this sword cut down, with the help of Cook''s power, it had reached 12 points.


    A sword falls as fast as lightning.


    Cook could not avoid it at all. He could only lift the iron bar in his hand and bear the sword.


    "Dang!"


    When the sword blade and the iron bar collided together, in a flash, sparks splashed around, and there was a deafening sound. It came from the place where the weapon hit, and people around heard it, and everyone looked terrible.


    Especially looking at Shi A''s eyes, he was even more awed.


    Shia''s body is not big.


    He''s a tough guy.


    But Shi a sword cuts down, that cuts the strength of the blow, simply strong and unrivalled. Such a skinny little man is in sharp contrast to the power of Shi a-bang.


    Kunda thinks he knows Shia''s martial arts. But now, he thinks that he really can''t understand Shi a, because he and Shi a hand in hand, Shi a never broke out such strength.


    If Shi a was so powerful at the beginning, he would not be able to make ten moves in Shi A''s hands.


    At a time of shock, cook''s face changed dramatically. When the blade struck his iron bar, the impact of his strength seemed to be the collapse of Mount Tai. The surge of momentum, speechless.


    Cook only felt the pain of tearing his palm, and the tiger''s mouth opened directly. In particular, he was so powerful that he couldn''t even hold the iron bar and was knocked out.


    Shia''s sword, however, was not affected at all.


    The blade continues to fall.


    "It''s over!"


    When the blade is cut off, cook can''t avoid it, especially when he has no weapon in his hand. He can only close his eyes and wait to die. Just the next moment, he just felt as if there was a sharp approaching in his eyebrows, cutting his skin, but the pain just stopped there.


    Cook opened his eyes and saw the Epee stop three inches above his brow.


    The sharp blade is shining coldly.


    As long as Shi a is willing, the sword just cut down is enough to split him in two. Fortunately, Shi a temporarily stopped his power, and the blade stopped, otherwise he would have been killed.


    But Cook was horrified.


    It''s easy to cut with one sword.


    However, it is not easy to stop chopping when a sword is cut down. From this point of view, Shia''s swordsmanship is far more than that. It''s easier to kill him.


    "You are defeated!"


    Shia, with his Epee, turned and left.


    However, cook could not bear the situation of defeat. If he was defeated, he would not be the God of war of the city and could no longer control the power of the city. So cook didn''t take care of the iron bars on the ground. He reached out to hold the handle of the sword at his waist.


    "Sonorous!"


    When the blade came out of its sheath, cook yelled, "go to die!"


    He stabbed Shia with his sword.


    The sword was so urgent and quick that even the people in the hall were shocked. Many people were even surprised. The reason is very simple, for them, cook failed, and Shia did not kill cook, has been the greatest kindness.


    But cook had to kill people.


    It''s narrow-minded.


    I can''t afford to lose.


    There is no courage.


    A man despises cook''s actions in his heart, but they are far away, but there is no time to stop them. They can only watch cook close to Shi''a and worry about shi''a.

 Chapter 1330

    Shia''s mouth, but with a sneer.


    When he withdrew, he had already considered that cook would be angry and kill him, so he still held the Epee in his hand. It seems that Shi a has relaxed his vigilance. In fact, Shi a is still fighting.


    When cook came close to Shia''s back and the blade was about to hit him, he saw Shia''s step and his whole body was already sideways. This lightning like side, impartial, just to avoid the stab to the sword.


    The Epee in Shi''a''s hand, swung and cut out.


    The sword was sharp and cold.


    I''m sorry!


    After the cold light flashed in the air, cook was standing still. The next moment, when cook opened his mouth and was ready to speak, suddenly, a thread of blood broke on his neck.


    "Poof!"


    Red blood, splashing out.


    Cook''s head, under the impact of blood, flew out directly. With a canopy of blood fell in the air, only to hear a plop, cook''s head fell to the ground, rolling a few times and then stopped.


    The next moment, cook''s body also fell to the ground.


    With a sword, cook was killed.


    People around us saw this behind the scenes and were even more shocked. Originally, cook''s sudden attack was a sneak attack. Shi a should have been caught off guard to resist, but the final result was unexpected.


    Shi''a fought back.


    One move killed cook.


    They were all shocked by Shi A''s power, which was absolutely ferocious.


    Shi a came to Pang Tong. He knelt down on one knee with his epee and said, "military strategist, I''ll kill cook by mistake. Please surrender."


    When he came to Kunda''s hall, he didn''t need to answer all the words of Kunda. But Shia killed people. He is guilty of killing cook. The military order is like a mountain. I have nothing to compensate for. I can only exchange one life for another and kill Shi''a in order to repay cook''s life. "


    Kundalian said in a hurry: "Pang Junshi can''t do it!"


    As Kunda spoke, the rest of the people came forward to speak.


    "Pang Junshi, this is a contest between the warriors. It''s very normal that there will be casualties in the fight between them. In particular, this time cook was killed, cook also took the blame, and he attacked first. "


    "Pang Junshi, no wonder Shia is a strong man."


    "Pang Junshi,. We need a warrior like Shia to set up a war in Lancaster. It would be a pity to kill Shia. What''s more, even if you give an order, no wonder Shi ah


    One by one, the people of Langston City pleaded with each other.


    On the one hand, Shia killed cook, but not Shia insisted on killing him. Because of the previous contest, Shi a had a chance to kill cook. However, Shi a was on the spot and showed his mind. It was cook who couldn''t afford to lose and insisted on sneak attack. Shi A''s counterattack led to the accidental killing of cook.


    It can be said that cook''s practice has lost the dignity of a warrior.


    On the contrary, Shia conquered all the people.


    In addition, the most important point is that after cook''s death, he needs a brave man. He can''t do without a master like Shia. In addition, without cook, the local faction of LAN''s city completely collapsed. They had to rely on the Qin army, so they had to submit to the great Qin.


    At this time, we can''t kill Shia.


    Kunda was even more anxious when he saw Pang Tong didn''t open his mouth. He also wanted to see Wang Yue with the help of Shi''a and ask Wang Yue for advice. So he stood up, went to Pang Tong, bowed and said: "Pang Junshi, this matter has nothing to do with Shi a, please Pang Junshi, spare Shi A''s life."


    "Please, commander Pang, spare Shi A''s life."


    "Please forgive me, Mr. Pang!"


    One by one, they also bow down to plead for Shi A. now, they don''t want Shi a to die, they all want Shi a to live. Not only because Shia was a strong man, but also because Shia conquered them.


    Pang Tong looked at the people pleading, and a smile passed in his eyes.


    It''s done!


    Through Shi''a, he twisted the people of the city into a rope. Under such a premise, it was easier for Pang Tong to organize the strength of LAN''s city.


    In fact, Pang Tong could not kill Shi a either.


    It''s just a show.


    Pang Tong, facing the crowd, said: "Shi ah, there are many people pleading for you, and you are also useful. So this time, I will spare your life. But after all, you killed cook. You bury cook yourself. "


    "Yes


    Shia immediately responded.


    Although Shi a is an assassin, in fact, he has been in charge of the Royal Guards for so many years, and he is also a skillful person. He knew Pang Tong''s arrangement, so he said, "please rest assured, I will bury cook."


    Pang Tong nodded: "get up!"


    "Thank you, commander!"Shia stood up and replied respectfully.


    Kunda also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, thanks Pang Tong with all the people, and then all the people sat down together. Kunda, as the person in charge of blue city, is now the leader when cook is killed.


    He looked at Pang Tong and took the lead in saying, "now, all of us are gathered, military strategist. Next, let''s ask the military division to decide how to capture the city. After all, although we are familiar with each other, we are a group of reckless men who need a schemer. "


    Everyone looked at Pang Tong.


    They are quite convinced of Pang Tong. After all, before Pang Tong''s words, cook was speechless. Such a wise man is naturally their mainstay.


    Facing the crowd, Pang Tong said, "you guys, since we are going to work, the first thing I need to do is to understand our strength. How many troops do we have now? "


    Kunda replied, "we are now no less than 100000 troops. After all, most of the humble people in LAN''s city are our people. Countless people in LAN''s City hope to overthrow the nobility. "


    Pang Tong said: "it''s true that with such a force, it can capture the city of Lanshi. However, in order to capture the city of Lanshi, it is necessary to wipe out the nobles in the city. If we don''t solve these people, even if we take the city of Lancaster, it''s in vain. "


    Kunda said, "sergeant, just tell me what to do. Our people, are a group of reckless, do not know how to do. So you arrange, we are responsible for the implementation


    "Good!"


    Pang Tong nodded and answered.


    Pang Tong knew about the situation of LAN''s city through Kunda on his way here.


    So, he can make precise arrangements.


    Pang Tong asked Kunda to hand over the names of all the generals, and Kunda took out the map of LAN''s city. According to the map of LAN''s city, he constantly ordered arrangements.


    All the orders were given, and each received the task.


    After all the arrangements have been announced, the whole plan has been clarified.


    After listening to Pang Tong''s plan, these people looked at him in awe. Because under Pang Tong''s plan, he not only wanted to capture the four gates of LAN''s city, but also wanted to deal with the nobles of LAN''s city at the same time.


    Such a plan, everyone is convinced.


    One heart, more full of expectations, looking forward to an early capture of blue city.


    After Pang Tong announced his plan, he said, "ladies and gentlemen, before we take action, I will ask one side again. Have you made clear my arrangements just now? "


    "Clear!"


    Everyone answered in unison.


    Pang Tong nodded: "then go back and prepare. We will prepare in one day. Tomorrow evening in the evening, we will start to take down the city and wipe out the nobles of the city. "


    "Take blue city!"


    Kunda yelled.


    "Take blue city!"


    "Take blue city!"


    The people who entered the hall also cried out. All the people''s faces are full of smiles, expectations and high morale. They are about to overthrow the aristocracy of Lange city and get rid of their pariah status.

 Chapter 1331

    Blue city, inside the city.


    The residence of Lahore.


    Today''s lahar is very relaxed. After all, the war situation on the front line is not only with mahasaro, but also with the emperor. You should know that emperor Xu, the sage of Kushan, is absolutely of real talent. Rahal is not worried about losing the front line, so he is in a good mood during this period.


    The residence of Lahore was originally in the north city. His house is a luxury one.


    In the hall.


    Rahal is drinking good wine and enjoying the dancing of the singer.


    It''s a happy day.


    Especially towards evening, when the sky is getting dim and the night is hazy. In the hall, oil lamps have been lit. With the burning of the oil lamp, the darkness is dispelled, and the Yellow dream atmosphere lingers in the hall.


    It''s also a breeding ground for other ideas.


    Rahal looks at the dancing singer, and his heart is gradually restless. In particular, the singers in his family are all purple and charming.


    So rahal looked and couldn''t help waving. Suddenly, the singer who is closest to Lahore stops. She walks to Lahore and leans down to sit down with a delicate look.


    Just as rahal was about to attack the singer, suddenly, the housekeeper of his family came in and reported: "Sir, the latest news is coming back from the front line."


    Rahal frowned.


    However, he thought that the housekeeper was very important, so he didn''t blame the housekeeper and took the letter. He quickly opened the letter and read it.


    The contents of this letter are the news of the defeat of mahasara in the front line and the seizure of military power by Indra and the emperor.


    After rahal saw it, a shadow passed between his eyebrows.


    Although rahar did not object to Emperor Xu''s entering the army, Emperor Xu and Indra seized the military power, and mahasara was defeated, which was a great pressure for the city of LAN. In particular, the emperor had to ask him to organize his troops again and send them to the front line, which was a great burden for the nobles in LAN''s city.


    After all, before that, the nobles of the blue city had given more than 100000 people.


    It''s going to be hard to start again now.


    Rahal waved goji to step down, looked at the housekeeper and said, "Indra has seized the military power, regardless of mahasara''s life or death. Now let me continue to organize the troops. The mind of Indra is more vicious than that of mahasara


    The housekeeper said, "master, although Indra''s request is very harsh. But the problem is that our city and the front-line army are both prosperous and have both lost. Once the front-line army is defeated, I am afraid it will be difficult for the city to protect itself. So in the current situation, even if Indra made a request, it had to be carried out. After all, it''s all about keeping blue city


    "But we don''t have so many people," rahal said


    "There are so many Untouchables in LAN''s city. Directly enlist the untouchables of blue city and let them fight on the front line. As long as they''re on the battlefield, they can''t help it. "


    After a pause, the housekeeper said, "just now, we need to arrange someone to take charge of it."


    Rahal laughed and said, "you remind me that Kunda has a lot of prestige among the untouchables. This time, let Kunda deal with it and let him carry out our orders. "


    "Master is wise," said the manager


    Rahal said, "you send a message immediately and ask Kunda to see me."


    "Yes


    The housekeeper turned to leave and went out to inform.


    When the housekeeper comes to Kunda''s house, instead of entering the yard, he stands at the door, knocks on the door and calls Kunda''s name. Today, Kunda, together with Pang Tong and others, is busy making up for the last leak.


    According to Pang Tong''s plan, evening is the time for action.


    Now, it''s close.


    Therefore, Kunda, Pang Tong and others are doing their best.


    Kunda listened to the shouting outside and frowned: "Pang Junshi, the man from outside is the housekeeper of the lahar family. He is rahal''s confidant. What do you do with him now? "


    Pang Tong said, "kill me."


    Now it''s the critical time for the incident, and no mistakes are allowed.


    So just kill the housekeeper.


    Kunda got Pang Tong''s arrangement and immediately got up and walked out of the house. He looked at the housekeeper and asked, "what''s the matter with the housekeeper coming to my house?"


    The housekeeper is not afraid of Kunda, even he is condescending. As soon as I saw Kunda, I said strongly, "the master has something to ask you to come. Come with me."


    "Yes


    Kunda''s eyes flashed a light, then said: "after you!"


    As soon as the housekeeper''s big sleeve brushed, he turned and left.


    When the housekeeper turned and walked forward, he turned his back to Kunda. At this moment, Kunda no longer hesitated. With a clang sound, he drew his sword out of its sheath and stabbed it forward. With a puff of breath, the tip of the sword broke through the skin and penetrated into the housekeeper''s back.With peiran''s strength, the point of the sword passes through the chest.


    Drop by drop of blood, from the chest through the tip of the sword out.


    The housekeeper''s body was trembling, as if there was pain in his bones. He lowered his head and looked at the position of his heart with a look of great pain on his face.


    Immediately, the housekeeper looked back at Kunda and murmured, "you, you, how dare you?"


    Kunda''s face is expressionless and indifferent. He draws out his sword.


    "Poof!"


    The blood spattered and the housekeeper fell to the ground. After the housekeeper fell to the ground, his body twitched twice and he lost his breath.


    Kunda dragged the housekeeper''s body back to the yard, went straight back to the room, looked at Pang Tong and said, "I''ve killed the Warmaster, the housekeeper of Hal''s family. Now, what do we do? "


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "time does not wait for me. Now there is no time for hesitation or delay. Send a signal immediately to the brothers at the four corners of the city, and let them act immediately. "


    According to Pang Tong''s plan, it was tonight.


    Previously, it was the stage of leak detection and vacancy filling.


    With Pang Tong''s order, Kunda immediately took action, turned to leave the room and sent out a loud arrow. With the arrow blast off, in the dim night, the arrow blast, and fireworks burst out.


    Even the whole city of Lancaster can be seen.


    At this moment, action begins.


    Kunda stood beside Pang Tong and said, "Pang Junshi, now there are brothers from Sifang city gate performing tasks. So, it''s time for us to act. I think the old dog, rahal, is waiting for me. Now, let''s go to the residence in Lahore. "


    "So be it!"


    Pang Tong had a bright smile on his face.


    In the plan, he took Shi''a and Kunda to the residence in Lahore. After all, among the nobles in LAN''s city, Lahore is the first. The rest of the nobles are arranged by Lahore. In particular, the rest of the aristocratic families, whether in strength or influence, are far less than Lahore.


    When they got out of the house, they took them to the residence in Lahore.

 Chapter 1332

    Lange City, near the north gate.


    Under the dark night.


    The whole street was quiet, as if everything was quiet.


    But in this dark place, there are a group of people standing, these are the common people of LAN''s city. They all joined the ranks of the nobility and were ready to seize the north gate of the city.


    One by one, with weapons in their hands.


    Some of these weapons are steel knives, some are iron forks, some are sticks. The weapons are different, but the expression on each face is bold and resolute.


    Because they want to take the city of Lancaster and overthrow the nobles of Lancaster.


    "Whew!"


    All of a sudden, there was an explosion of arrows in the air.


    More sparks.


    With the launch of the arrow, the leader directly yelled: "brothers, go!"


    The leader''s name was arihan.


    With the order of arihan, he also carried a knife and rushed to the front. Ali Hanben was born as a blacksmith, with a strong body. His knife is also a big one with iron back. It has a thick back and a sharp edge. In particular, arihan himself has a lot of brute force. He wields a big knife and is extremely lethal.


    Even arihan is not as strong as Kunda. However, arihan was a general before the two armies. He took people out quickly, nearly ten thousand people, mighty forward, in the twinkling of an eye to the gallop road leading to the city.


    "Kill it!"


    Exclaimed arihan.


    He took the lead and rushed forward. When they moved, they were found by the soldiers stationed on the top of the city. The general at the north gate was panicked. He first arranged for people to leave to report the news, and then took people to resist.


    However, the number of troops on the north gate is more than 1000.


    In ordinary times, the elite of more than 1000 people, even in the face of 10000 people, is enough to win. But now, more than 1000 people have been caught off guard, especially arihan, who took the lead in killing the soldiers. He killed them all at once and quickly killed all the garrison soldiers, making the garrison troops in chaos.


    For a moment, the troops stationed on the upper floor of the city were unable to carry on any longer and retreated one after another.


    Arihan took the team up, quickly captured the north gate, and then took control of the gate. However, after all this, arihan did not rush to pursue the escaped garrison soldiers.


    And he had to get these people to deliver the message.


    Today''s LAN''s city is short of a city leader. The city leader''s office has no troops. In particular, the main government affairs are led by the nobles such as Lahore. Therefore, these escaped soldiers can only go to Lahore for help.


    Ali Hamming knew it, but he didn''t take care of it and let the escaped soldiers go.


    In fact, the same thing happened at the East, West and South gates of the city. In the other three gates, soldiers composed of common people quickly seized the gates and killed the soldiers stationed at the gates.


    The soldiers at each gate fled directly.


    Then, gather at the residence in Lahore.


    Originally, rahal had been waiting for the housekeeper to come back in the evening, but he didn''t wait for the housekeeper to come back. On the contrary, before the housekeeper came back, rahal saw the deserters at the north gate of the city. Immediately after that, the other deserters from the east gate, the west gate and the south gate also fled back, all seeking help from Lahore.


    As the head of the aristocracy in LAN''s city, Lahore is also used to big waves. When he learned of this situation, he knew that there was a problem in LAN''s city. If it was not handled properly, then Lan''s city would surely be overturned.


    Rahal responded immediately.


    He mobilized all the private soldiers of his family, six thousand private soldiers, and went straight to the north gate of the city to expel the people of the north gate. In addition, lahar also sent orders to the rest of the west gate, the east gate and the south gate, asking them to go to the north of the city and ask the rest of the nobles in the city for help.


    Rahal believes that at this critical time, all the nobles in the city will act.


    As long as all the nobles in LAN''s city are mobilized, they will win. Even if there was a disturbance in the city, it was not a big deal for the nobles of the city.


    And the residence in Lahore is far away.


    In the dark.


    Pang Tong stood with Shi''a and Kunda, and soldiers followed him. Although there were not many soldiers following Pang Tong, Pang Tong believed that as long as the troops of rahar''s house left, even if he had only more than 1000 people, he would be able to break through the house.


    This is Pang Tong''s plan.


    Pang Tong arranged the troops of LAN''s city to ambush at the four gates of East, South, West and North, and quickly seized the four gates, but he did not block the way for the garrison troops to seek help, which made the garrison soldiers turn to help one after another. Then, rahar and the rest of the nobles, for the sake of everything in LAN''s city, had to send troops to counterattack the four gates, intending to take back the four gates.


    At this time, lahar and the rest of the city''s aristocracy, their own strength is unprecedented weakness.


    Pang Tong directly attacked the nobles in LAN''s city.


    In this way, we can win in one go.This is Pang Tong''s plan.


    As long as the nobles in LAN''s city are captured, their private soldiers will not be taken into consideration.


    Pang Tong waited quietly.


    After a short time, he heard the door creak open, the sound of hasty footsteps, and the noise of discussion. From the residence of Lahore, dense private soldiers rushed out quickly.


    These people, all armed with swords, went straight to the north gate.


    The noise did not last long, but inside and outside the residence of Lahore, silence returned.


    Kunda stood beside Pang Tong, looking at the quiet lahar mansion, with a look of joy in his eyes, and said, "Pang Jun Shi, your plan is really powerful. It will be very easy for us to remove the power of Lahore mansion and destroy it. "


    Pang Tong said, "it''s not worth mentioning that you have a small skill in carving insects."


    Kunda shook his head.


    What''s the trick? Plan one by one, and easily kill the nobles in lahar and other Langshi cities. They really have no plan. In other words, Kunda and others plan to attack directly. At that time, I don''t know how many people will be killed or injured.


    Now, it''s easy to win.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, a little more than a quarter of an hour passed.


    Pang Tong shook his robe and said, "Kunda, you can do it. The private soldiers in the residence of Lahore are far away. In a hurry, it''s impossible to come back. Now, go ahead and take the hall of rahal. "


    "Yes


    After Kunda got the order, he rushed out with his sword and said, "brothers, kill me!"


    After Kunda was killed, more than a thousand soldiers followed quickly and went straight to the gate of Lahore mansion. Today, although the gate of the residence in Lahore is closed, the power of the residence is weaker than ever. Apart from the daily attendants and the singers, there are no private soldiers guarding the residence.


    Although the door was closed, Kunda and his men ran into the door. After a while, they opened the door and rushed in directly.


    The mighty soldiers, into the house.


    For a moment, the whole residence of Lahore was full of chickens and dogs.


    Rahal was originally reading in his backyard study, waiting for news. When he heard the shouts from the government, he was puzzled. As soon as he was about to arrange for someone to look up the news, his servant rushed in and exclaimed, "master, it''s not good. The pariah rushes in. Kunda, the damned pariah, rushes into the house with people. "


    Brush!


    Rahal''s face changed a lot.


    Kunda''s here.


    You know, his housekeeper went to call Kunda to see him. But the housekeeper never came back. Now Kunda is bringing people to kill him, which shows that his housekeeper must be killed.


    But now, this is not what rahal thought. After a little thought, he came back to himself and knew that his family was not safe. He immediately said, "go, go, we''ll leave by the back door at once. Come on, come on, it''s too late. "

 Chapter 1333

    Rahal couldn''t manage anything and didn''t have time to pack up. He got up and went out. Now his mind is full of ideas, are to evacuate out, once surrounded by Dalits, his end must be very miserable.


    It''s just that rahal just got out of the room and walked out of the yard when he saw Kunda.


    Kunda stared at rahar with a smile and said, "rahar, where do you want to go? Let me give you a ride. Especially if you want to go to hell, I''m more than happy to see it come true. "


    "Gudong!"


    Rahal swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    Between his eyebrows, there was a touch of panic and uneasiness. Because Kunda blocked him, he had no way out. In particular, these Dalits are eager to kill him. It''s hard for rahal to imagine what kind of situation he will face.


    Rahal turned his mind and thought quickly. Suddenly, he fell on his knees and said in a loud voice, "Kunda, I''m willing to cooperate. I''m willing to give up all my money and food. I''m willing to give up my identity and cooperate with you to abolish the aristocracy. I''m familiar with everything in blue city. With my cooperation, you will be very successful. "


    "No need!"


    Kunda shook his head and said, "you know the city, and I know the city. We are all native to the city of Lanchester. We are no stranger to this place. "


    Rahal was very anxious.


    What to do?


    Rahal said again: "Kunda, I know the situation of the nobles best. With me, you will have a lot less things. You will avoid many detours. "


    Kunda did not want to entangle with rahar again. With a wave of his hand, some soldiers came forward and arrested him directly.


    Kunda takes rahar, turns around and orders the people under his command to clean up the residence and detain all the immediate family members and the people in the residence.


    Kunda came to Pang Tong and said happily, "Pang Jun Shi, it''s done. Now the residence in Lahore has been completely taken. And rahal, too, was captured alive. "


    "This is a good start," Pang said


    After the defeat of Lahore, it will be much easier to take control of the city.


    While Pang Tong was talking, he turned his eyes and fell not far ahead. He was surprised to see a soldier in action, who was carrying a lot of gold cakes and treasures. However, he couldn''t keep his clothes and fell all the way.


    Pang Tong looked coldly at Kunda and said, "Kunda, we are now an army, not a robber. All money must be sealed up and arranged in a unified way. Before the action, I also repeated orders to prohibit unauthorized action and snatching money. Now, there is an uncontrollable situation. What are you going to do? "


    Kunda said, "I''m going to persuade you."


    "Advise?"


    Pang Tong said coldly, "how can you persuade so many people? If everyone is fooling around, can you persuade them? "


    Kunda was at a loss for a moment.


    Pang Tong said: "as a soldier, you should obey the law and discipline. As a general, he should restrain his soldiers. There are people who disobey orders. In fact, it''s very simple. It''s best to persuade them. We can''t persuade, we can only make an example. In today''s situation, if there is no restriction, it can only be a group of robbers. Kunda, did you come forward to solve the money Snatcher, or did I send someone to do it? "


    "I, I..."


    Kunda, for a while, a little bit.


    Even if he used to be an assassin, let him do it to his own people. Kunda''s heart, or a certain degree of resistance, is not willing to personally blade their own people.


    Pang Tong said: "now, you don''t want to kill this person who breaks the rules. Then, more and more people will break the rules. In the end, you can''t control the situation any more. Do you want to see one person die, or do you want to see countless people destroy the situation, so that the whole situation collapses? "


    Kunda heard Pang Tong''s words, no longer hesitated, carrying a sword quickly forward.


    It''s not that he doesn''t understand.


    I just can''t bear it.


    Kunda can weigh the pros and cons, or choose to move. He rushed to the soldier and stabbed the sword out of his hand.


    "Puchi!"


    With a dull sound, the point of the sword penetrated the soldier''s heart.


    The blood splashed, and the soldiers fell on the ground with their heads up. Their gold and silver jewelry also fell on the ground.


    Kunda looked around at the soldiers, and he cried out, "if there are any more looters, there will be no amnesty! The law and discipline in the army is the law and discipline in the army. No one is allowed to trample on it. Since we have chosen to join the army, and since we have chosen to start an incident, we can not rob property without fear. "


    This scene fell into the eyes of countless people.


    There was awe on every face.


    More fear.


    As a matter of fact, if we rob property one by one, we should adhere to the principle that the law is not accountable to the public. Everyone should join in the scramble for finance, and the situation will get out of hand in the end.


    Kunda''s crisp hand, coupled with his prestige, stabilized the situation and brought the chaos in Lahore mansion under control. The actions of subsequent soldiers are also standardized.In less than half an hour, the residence of Lahore was completely sealed up.


    When Pang Tong, Kunda and others came to the gate of the residence, arihan returned. His face was full of pride, and he said: "Pang Junshi, the private soldiers who went to the North City from lahar residence, have been defeated. The main private soldiers have been captured. "


    "Well done!"


    Pang Tong''s face showed approval.


    The north gate is successful, but the other directions of East Gate, west gate and south gate are not difficult.


    Soon after arihan''s return, the other three generals also withdrew with their soldiers. After that, all the others who went to seal up the major families returned.


    Fortunately, among these people, there are few who rob money.


    After all, the rest of the families are not very strong.


    The largest family is the Lahore family.


    At this time, the sky was still dark, but a torch around it was burning, dispersing the darkness, making the inside and outside of the residence in Lahore red, just like the day.


    All eyes fell on Pang Tong.


    Pang tonglang said: "everyone, our action tonight has been successful. We have taken the city of Lancaster. Since then, there has been no aristocracy in Lancaster. All people are the same. There is no distinction between aristocracy, pariah and slave. All people are equal. "


    As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused a thunderous chorus.


    Countless people cheered.


    Even, many people are already in tears, because the countless people in action tonight have the status of pariah. There are even many people, who have slave origins, who are very humble.


    In blue city, they have no status.


    But now, it''s different.


    There is no more aristocracy in the city of Lancaster.


    Pang Tong listened to the comments around him and the voice of soldiers. Even, he also heard a lot of people trying to roar, venting their inner emotions.


    Pang Tong didn''t stop him or disturb him. He let the soldiers vent their anger. After nearly a quarter and a half of an hour, the voices around him gradually subsided, and everyone''s eyes again focused on Pang Tong.


    Pang Tong said: "everyone, now the operation has been successful. The next step is to reorganize the city. In the meantime, I would like to announce an order prohibiting anyone from robbing and killing without authorization. "


    "There is no amnesty for those who disobey orders."


    "Whether it is the residence of Lahore, or the rest of the nobles in the city of Lange, there are countless grains and money. All this money must be managed with consent. "


    "Anyone who takes part in this station will be rewarded for their merits."


    "The rest of the money will be used as the money for the management of the city, which is to maintain the operation of the city. Therefore, if anyone dares to move money without authorization and intends to take it for himself, he will be killed without mercy. "


    Pang Tong continued: "in addition, after the nobles in LAN''s city were swept away. Next, the land will be divided equally. Anyone who does not have land can be assigned land for farming. "


    Pang Tong kept talking.


    It''s announcing orders one by one.


    Pang Tong knew very well that it was easy to capture Lanshi City, but it was not easy to govern it. Therefore, it took Pang Tongyi the whole night to make the arrangement for LAN''s city.

 Chapter 1334

    After all the arrangements were made properly, Pang Tong again ordered that the news of the fall of LAN''s city be released.


    The reason for this is to deal with the emperor and Indra.


    However, when he released the news, Pang Tong arranged to send the news to Tianmen Mountain as quickly as possible. In this way, Zhang Xiu will get the news first.


    Then Indra will get the news.


    This is Pang Tong''s arrangement.


    Pang Tong still stayed in Lan Shi City, because Lan Shi City had just been captured, and there were countless people to do it. In particular, the nobles of Langshi City, headed by Lahore, had to be dealt with.


    Next, Pang Tong not only wanted to kill the nobles in lahar and other cities, but also reappointed a number of officials in the city. Therefore, he was so busy that he had no time to rest.


    Under Pang Tong''s treatment, when Lan''s city became more and more formal, Pang Tong''s soldiers had already made their way to Zhang Xiu''s camp in the north of Tianmen.


    Soon after the sentinel got his name, under the leadership of the soldiers, he came to the big account of the Chinese army. Sentry enters, after seeing Zhang Xiu, kneels on one knee and says: "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the situation in LAN''s city?"


    During this period of time, Zhang Xiu did not take any action. She was firmly stationed in the camp and confronted with more than 200000 troops led by Indra. Neither side acted rashly.


    Zhang Xiu did not enter the army because he was waiting for Pang Tong''s news and victory. However, because he didn''t enter the army, he had been guarding Tianmen Mountain. He intended to use Tianmen Mountain''s defense to bring down Zhang Xiu''s army.


    As long as Zhang Xiu has been unable to conquer Tianmen Mountain, he will eventually retreat.


    This is Indra''s plan.


    Indra did not intend to destroy Zhang Xiu.


    Now, Indra does not have such strength. As long as the nobles in LAN''s city send a new Shengli army and increase their strength, Indra will consider entering the army.


    So both sides have been restrained.


    The sentinel said, "report back to your majesty. Everything is going well in the city. Now the city of Lancaster has been captured. For the specific situation, please check the war report sent back by commander Pang. "


    After that, he handed in the war report.


    Zhang Xiu took the letter and quickly scanned the contents of the war report. When he saw the letter, Pang Tong said that he had won Lan''s city and destroyed the nobles of LAN''s city. Now he was carrying out drastic reform, and his face also showed a smile.


    Pang Tong is in LAN''s city. He doesn''t worry.


    After reading the letter, Zhang Xiu waves her hand to let the sentry back down, and then sends an order to beat the drum and raise her troops.


    "Dong! Dong


    Drums rumbled through the barracks.


    As soon as the soldiers heard the battle drums, they all took action and quickly mobilized the troops.


    Zhao Yun, Gan Ning, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren also quickly came to the camp and asked Zhang Xiu why. They learned that Pang Tong had won in LAN''s city, and they all had high morale.


    After so many days of stalemate, it finally arrived.


    Finally, it''s time to send troops.


    "Let''s go!"


    At the command of Zhang Xiu, the army set out for Tianmen Mountain. When the army pulled out of the camp, because of the great movement, it was found not far away by the sentry arranged by Indra, so the sentry quickly withdrew the report.


    On Tianmen Mountain, in the headquarters.


    Indra and Dishu are playing chess to pass the time.


    This game is go.


    It was also learned from the merchants of the western regions, and then taught to Indra. Most of the time, the emperor had to win in chess. Indra was always in a weak position.


    But Indra is happy with this and not that.


    He felt that playing chess was also a battlefield fight.


    This is an opportunity to practice layout.


    When they were playing chess, the sentry rushed to the headquarters at the top of the mountain and reported: "fourth prince, it''s not good. The Qin army has sent troops and is heading for Tianmen Mountain. "


    Indra put down the pieces in his hand, hummed and said in a deep voice: "what is bad? The Qin army will come soon. Qin army dare to fight, we are afraid that he will not succeed? The Qin army is not a fierce beast, and it is not to be feared. What''s more, we occupied Tianmen Mountain and took the initiative. Our strength is even stronger than that of the Qin army. "


    Indra was very dissatisfied with the sentry''s words.


    He was not afraid of the Qin army.


    But the soldiers looked like the Qin army was coming.


    Indra yelled: "I will go down and lead the ten army staff to punish. Next time, I will be so flustered. It is not the punishment of the ten army staff, but the direct execution. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    The sentry was terrified, so he immediately answered.


    After the sentry left, Emperor Xu had a bright smile on his face and said, "now the fourth Prince is more and more dignified. This time he fought with the Qin army, the fourth prince grew up a lot. "


    Indra said, "the teacher praised me. I still have a lot to do. Now, there are still many things I can''t do well enough. "Emperor must say: "go, prepare for the first World War."


    Indra also stood up from the headquarters, then with emperor Xu, he walked out of the headquarters and came to the mountain of Tianmen Mountain. With Indra''s command, all the officers and men in the army gathered and lined up for the first World War.


    Time goes by little.


    Not long after, in the distance of Tianmen Mountain, a large army of black and white appeared.


    This is the army of Daqin.


    At the front, Zhang Xiu stands on her horse.


    Zhang Xiu rode a horse to the foot of the mountain. Because of the close distance, the bow and arrow were not easy to design, and the artillery could not bombard. On the contrary, it was relatively safe, and she was able to shout to the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu looked up at Tianmen Mountain with a smile on her lips.


    Last time, he came to Tianmen Mountain with his soldiers. After a strong attack, he was defeated and failed to win. But after a while, Zhang Xiu is different now.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and exclaimed, "Indra, I''m leading a large army again. You''re still alive, say a word


    Indra''s cheek twitched.


    What is still alive.


    He''s fine.


    Indra exclaimed: "Zhang Xiu, my prince is on the mountain. He is very good. He eats what he likes."


    Zhang Xiu said with a laugh: "I didn''t expect Prince Indra to have some meaning. Everything tastes delicious. It seems that countless people on this mountain give birth to countless feces every day. I''m afraid that after you eat it, I''ll be full of fragrance. "


    Indra scolded: "Zhang Xiu, you are full of feces."


    He was angry inside.


    Zhang Xiu is also the emperor of a country. It''s really a shame that she should say such filthy words. From the bottom of my heart, Indra even looked down on Zhang Xiu, and felt that Zhang Xiu was really shameful.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t care.


    For Zhang Xiu, as long as it works, that''s a good way.


    Zhang Xiu is a pragmatist.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly, "Indra, you said I was full of feces. Did you taste it or what?"


    Indra looked very angry.


    Zhang Xiu''s mouth really stinks.


    Because Tuoluo was not willing to talk to Zhang Xiu any more, he said, "Zhang Xiu, don''t talk nonsense. You bring the army, if you have the courage, you attack. I Indra am on this mountain, waiting for your attack. We have thousands of soldiers in Tianmen Mountain. Let''s see how you can break Tianmen Mountain. "


    But Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "Indra, I''m here today. On the one hand, we should send troops to attack Tianmen Mountain. On the other hand, I want to tell you something very important. "


    Indra said scornfully, "what news can you get? It''s just some scaremongering. Zhang Xiu, I have seen through your routine. Your words are useless. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and she continued: "the so-called alarmist words are made out of nothing. They are threats. However, I always speak according to the facts, but I don''t like to say something out of thin air. What I want to tell you is that the blue city has fallen. You are lost behind Indra. "


    Brush!


    Indra''s face changed greatly.


    Even when he was standing, his body was shaking, almost unsteadiness. If it was not for the emperor to reach out and hold Indra in time, I am afraid Indra would have fallen to the ground.


    It''s really shocking news.


    Emperor must remind: "fourth prince, don''t worry. Blue city is behind us. It can''t be defeated. Zhang Xiu''s words are nothing but alarmist


    Indra came back, took a deep breath, and suppressed his inner shock.

 Chapter 1335

    In fact, Emperor Xu was shocked.


    It''s true that the key to this battle is blue city. If Lan''s city falls, their 200000 troops will be rootless Ping. In particular, according to the original plan, food should have been delivered in recent days. Up to now, there is no news.


    In addition, Indra had previously arranged for people to return to the city of LAN to prepare troops for rahar in the city of LAN, but so far there has been no news, and even the people who went back to preach have not come back, which is also one of the oddities.


    Emperor must think about it in his heart. The more he thinks about it, the more news will prove that there is a change in LAN''s city.


    However, the emperor must not be disordered.


    So he opened his mouth to comfort Indra.


    No matter what happened to Lan Shi City, Indra and Emperor Xu could not make a mess of their own. Otherwise, there will be no need to fight in this war.


    After Indra stabilized his body and mind, he looked at the emperor''s whiskers. He looked calm, and his heart was no longer alarmed. He looked at Zhang Xiu at the foot of the mountain, took a breath and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, you are just alarmist. Without any evidence, you say that the fall of LAN''s city is nothing more than to shake the prince''s morale and seize the Tianmen Mountain. It''s really clumsy of you to forge such information in order to capture Tianmen Mountain. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "in front of the two armies, in front of 200000 troops of Lanshi City, in front of all the troops under my command. If I lie, it will affect my reputation. So I don''t have to lie like this. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Indra, as long as I ask a little bit, I will know the news. Even, presumably, it''s time for your sentry to send back the message. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, there was the voice of the sentinel on the mountain.


    The sentry looked panicked. Soon, he came to Indra''s body and reported: "fourth prince, there is an urgent report from LAN''s city. Please check it."


    Indra took a look at the sentry.


    He frowned.


    Zhang Xiu is also at the foot of the mountain. She just hears the sentry shouting the news of LAN''s city. With a smile on his lips, he continued, "Indra, the news has come. How about you check it out? "


    Indra took the letter and scanned it quickly. When he saw the contents of the letter, he was completely confused. Because this letter really recorded the news of the fall of LAN''s city.


    The whole city of Ramsey was captured by the untouchables.


    Blue city has been lost.


    Gudong!


    Indra suddenly took a breath and looked very embarrassed.


    As soon as the emperor looked at Indra, he knew the contents of the letter. A cold light flashed in his eyes. He held his hand on the hilt of the sword, pulled the sword out of its sheath, and stabbed it out with one sword.


    The sword was so abrupt that the sentry had no defense at all, so his sword easily penetrated into the heart of the sentry and killed him immediately.


    Emperor Xu coldly faced and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, in order to attack the morale of our army in LAN''s city, you don''t hesitate to bribe the sentinel of LAN''s city to spread false news. You do things by all means


    This is the response of emperor Xu.


    Kill the sentinel directly.


    Then he said that the news was forged by Zhang Xiu on purpose.


    Indra took a look at the emperor''s beard, and when he saw the decisive emperor''s beard on the sofa, he came back to himself. He squeezed the letter into a ball and threw it directly down the mountain. He also yelled: "Zhang Xiu, you don''t like to forge letters with the intention of attacking the morale of our army. Your means are despicable. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she burst out laughing.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Emperor Xu''s treatment seems wise, but in fact, it is helpless.


    The army of Lanshi city on the mountain is not a fool. They all have their own ideas and thoughts. Emperor Xu seems to be killing the sentry and shirking the responsibility on Zhang Xiu, but in fact, he has settled the fall of LAN''s city.


    When Zhang Xiu laughs, Indra and Emperor Xu on the mountain frown. Because when they looked around, when they saw the soldiers in blue city, there was a lot of fear and uneasiness on their faces.


    Without the rear area of Lancaster City, they would be in trouble.


    This is extremely dangerous.


    After half a sound, Zhang Xiu''s laughter stopped.


    Zhang Xiu took another breath and said in a loud voice, "Indra, you said that I forged letters and even bribed sentinels. But the problem is, this Sentry is your sentry. How can I buy it? What''s more, such news can''t be concealed sooner or later. Because there''s going to be more routs, coming from blue city. In this case, everything will be real in Lancaster city. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said, "in addition to that, there are countless soldiers and relatives in the army of LAN''s city. Since we have relatives, we can know the news. Therefore, it should be very easy to find out the situation of LAN''s city. "


    Indra''s face was cold.


    Zhang Xiu''s words, like a knife, poked directly into his heart.It made Indra panic.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, another soldier called out.


    The soldiers came to Indra and reported: "to the fourth prince, outside the rear camp, there are a group of rout soldiers from Lanshi city. They claim to be the defenders of the city


    Brush!


    At this moment, Indra''s face completely changed.


    It''s over!


    I really can''t control the news.


    With the appearance of this rout, the news is completely true. In particular, this group of rout soldiers appeared outside the rear camp. It means that all the blue city soldiers in the camp will know the news.


    Indra''s eyes were full of panic. He looked at the emperor''s beard and said, "teacher, what shall we do?"


    At this time, Emperor Xu was also powerless.


    Even if the emperor has no idea, even if he is eloquent, but now, the rear Lan City is lost, the emperor is helpless. The loss of the rear of the blue city army, just like the loss of the backbone, no high morale.


    The emperor must take a deep breath and say, "we have to fight. Even if we are defeated, we have to fight. What''s more, we still have a certain amount of food on the mountain, which is enough to support us for more than a month. Plus we have the advantage of Tianmen Mountain, there is still a chance for this battle. Moreover, even if it is a fight to the death, it must be fought to the end. If we don''t fight to the end, we will never give up. "


    Indra nodded and answered.


    In an instant, he had understood emperor Xu''s intention.


    Today, Zhang Xiu''s army has occupied an advantage outside Tianmen Mountain. If the direct withdrawal, then Zhang Xiu will be effortless, directly seize the city of LAN, Zhang Xiu''s strength will be stronger and stronger.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s strength can be weakened at least through the death battle of Tianmen Mountain. The more weakened Zhang Xiu''s strength is, the weaker her power will be when she takes over LAN''s city.


    This is the intention of emperor Xu.


    Indra took a deep breath, then looked at Zhang Xiu at the foot of the mountain and exclaimed, "Zhang Xiu, dog thief, if you want to fight, I will accompany you to the end. Our army of Lanshi city is in Tianmen Mountain to see how you can conquer it. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Indra, it seems that you can''t control the news of the fall of LAN''s city. But now you shout, it is the lack of momentum, is incoherent. Now you are in a panic


    "I''m not in a panic!"


    Indra said, "I, the army of Lanshi City, can resist your attack with the help of Tianmen Mountain."


    Zhang Xiu said: "I said you are flustered, you are flustered."


    After saying this, Zhang Xiu stopped talking to Indra. For now Indra is not enough to fear. Zhang Xiu''s eyes have turned into soldiers on the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu said in a high voice: "listen to the army of Lanshi city on the mountain, now Lanshi city has been captured by my army. All the nobles in LAN''s city have been completely killed. "


    "The people of Lanshi are no longer untouchables, no longer slaves, they are free."


    "Among you, there are people of humble origin, people of humble origin, and people who have been slaves for generations. If Lan''s city is in the hands of GUI Shuang Xun GUI, you will never be able to change your origin in your whole life. "


    "Now you are free."


    "Your origins are no longer a problem. From generation to generation, your families are no longer pariah, no longer slaves, no longer despised and reviled. You''re in Lancaster City, and you''re free. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "are you willing to continue to be slaves? Think about your family in blue city. For them, do you want to continue to work for the tiger? "


    Zhang Xiu''s words are very bewitching.


    Now he is going to incite the army of blue city on the mountain to plot against the forces of blue city.


    It''s the turn of the blue city army.


    In the worst case, the battle effectiveness of the army in LAN''s city has to be weakened, so that the army in LAN''s city does not want to fight.

 Chapter 1336

    On Tianmen Mountain, all the soldiers in LAN''s city heard Zhang Xiu''s voice. Many of them were silent. Their eyes turned and they already had an idea. Although emperor Xu lured the whole army of Lanshi city on Tianmen Mountain with power and interests, they were willing to fight hard.


    But now, LAN''s city is lost.


    How to fight?


    What''s more, there are their families in LAN''s city, all of them are concerned. In such a premise, even if there is interest temptation mentioned by Emperor Xu, they are still moved by Zhang Xiu''s words.


    In particular, the nobles of the city of Lanchester have disappeared, and since then they have also been free men. Even if they are not aristocrats, they do not have to be despised and suppressed by the aristocrats, and they will not be exploited by the aristocrats.


    For a time, people''s hearts were floating.


    Indra looked around. He looked around and frowned.


    Zhang Xiu is too cruel.


    If Zhang Xiu attacks directly without saying a word, then the soldiers of LAN''s city on the mountain can only confront passively and have no time to think more. But now it''s different. Zhang Xiu bewitches the soldiers in LAN''s city with words, which makes their minds change.


    Indra looked at the emperor and asked him.


    He didn''t ask.


    Because all the people around him are soldiers of blue city. Once they ask questions, they will expose what he thinks.


    When Emperor Xu saw Indra''s eyes, he also felt helpless. As a wise person of Kushan, Emperor Xu has always been helpless in the eyes of Kushan people. In particular, everything that emperor Xu encountered could be easily solved.


    But now, he''s in trouble.


    There is no solution.


    Even if the emperor has no idea, he can''t find a way to solve this problem.


    Emperor must say: "fourth prince, fight with all your strength."


    Now when Indra heard this, he understood.


    There is no way to crack it.


    Indra no longer talks with Zhang Xiu, but just stands in the ditch and arranges the soldiers to resist.


    Zhang Xiu saw that there was no movement at the top of Tianmen Mountain, and knew that Indra would not say anything more. So Zhang Xiu no longer said more, and ordered: "pass my order, attack!"


    At the command, Gan Ning led the vanguard and launched the attack.


    The mighty soldiers charged forward.


    At the same time, the artillery, which had already been deployed at the foot of the mountain, also quickly loaded shells and lit the fuse. With the sound of burning, a moment later, there was a roaring sound of firing.


    A shell, from the air across, and then fell on the hillside of Tianmen Mountain.


    "Boom!"


    The first shell landed and the ground exploded.


    For a moment, the soil was flying.


    "Boom! Boom


    Successive shells landed on the hillside. One after another, the sound of explosions, continuous, so that the whole hillside, are trapped in a piece of smoke.


    The whole mountain seems to be shaking and shaking.


    Indra is also in the ditch.


    But he was buried in the ditch with emperor Xu to avoid the shells.


    After a while, the shells stopped.


    At this time, the soldiers of the Qin army at the foot of the mountain, along the trench where they had fought before, approached the hillside and began to attack. There is a wave of grenades as a weapon to open the way, one by one Qin soldiers, fast forward.


    "Kill, kill for me, kill the Qin army."


    I gave an order, and I saw what happened.


    After his order was given, the soldiers in the moat in the middle of the mountain. Although one by one, but it is slow, and seems to be afraid to rush forward, do not want to rush in the front.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the Qin army had been killed.


    When there was a positive contact between the two sides, the soldiers in blue city did not resist at all, so they had quickly retreated.


    This is accelerating the subsidence of Tianmen Mountain.


    When Indra saw this scene, his heart was cold. Instead of going straight to Peshawar from the south to the north, he went straight to Lanshi city with his teacher Dixu, in order to win the strength of Lanshi City, defeat the Qin army and establish prestige.


    But all this, after all, is a failure.


    It didn''t work out in the end.


    "Withdraw!"


    This time Indra did not ask his teacher, Emperor Xu, but gave an order to retreat.


    The soldiers of the whole city of Lancaster were in constant rout. Under such a premise, it is impossible to fight to the death. In particular, there are more and more Qin troops. If we don''t retreat now, once we are caught, there will be nothing left.


    When Indra retreated, the generals of the army retreated with him.


    For a moment, the defense on Tianmen Mountain was defeated.


    No one can resist.


    "I surrender, I am willing to submit to Daqin."


    Some of the soldiers in LAN''s city threw away their weapons and knelt down on the ground."I''m willing to surrender."


    "Don''t kill me, I will surrender."


    Continuous shouts reverberate in the air. More and more soldiers cried out to surrender, so that the whole mount Tianmen, the resistance of the blue city forces, all like wheat waves in general, constantly kneeling on the ground.


    What the Qin army has done is overwhelming.


    There''s nothing to resist.


    Indra, with a group of soldiers, soon withdrew from the top of the mountain and went straight to the barracks in the northwest. When he returned to the camp, Indra did not dare to go back to the camp, because it was certainly impossible to resist with the help of the army in the camp.


    Only direct evacuation.


    Indra, together with Dixu, and the rest of Kushan''s generals, kept withdrawing.


    Zhang Xiu''s army, after seizing Tianmen Mountain, rushed out and soon rushed to guishuang''s army camp. After the army entered, it was easy to capture the army camp in Lancaster city. All the Lancaster City soldiers in the camp gave up without any resistance.


    The war lasted less than an hour from the beginning to the end. On the contrary, it took nearly four hours to count the results. By this time, it was already dark.


    The army camp in lanchtown, the Chinese Army account.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the throne.


    Below, sat Guo Jia, Gan Ning, Zhao Yun and others.


    Gan Ning, looking excited, reported: "Your Majesty, this battle of Tianmen Mountain. We have captured more than 180000 soldiers from the city, but not many of them have been killed, less than 1000 of them. "


    At this point, Gan Ning''s face was slightly sorry, and said: "it''s a pity that Indra and Dixu escaped. In addition, the aristocratic generals in the whole blue city army also fled without exception. There are only some poor generals left, but they are all grassroots generals. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded her head and showed approval on her face.


    We won the war successfully.


    However, the reason why we can successfully win, in fact, is also because of the breakthrough in the aspect of blue city. Because Kunda broke up in Lanshi city and cut off Indra''s back road, cut off Indra''s food and grass, making the whole army of Lanshi City floating in Tianmen Mountain.


    It can be said that without the victory of the city of Lancaster, there would be no complete victory in this battle.


    Ganning continued: "Your Majesty, this is a captive of 180000 people in LAN''s city. Once all the captives are sold. Then, it must be to obtain countless benefits. Your majesty, when will these slaves be sold? "


    Zhang Xiu heard the twitch of her cheek.


    Gan Ning is really addicted to the slave trade. He thinks that he wants to sell slaves again.


    Guo Jia answered and said with a smile, "general Gan, when he was in the western regions, he could sell captured prisoners of war. But now that they have entered the territory of Kushan, not only can they not be sold, but also they have to be given preferential treatment. After selecting the best of these 180000 prisoners, the rest of them will be paid to settle down and demobilized, leaving no one behind. "


    After hearing this, Gan Ning was stunned and puzzled, but after all, Gan Ning was an important general in the army and a wise man. So after hearing Guo Jia''s words, he also wanted to understand and said, "I understand what Guo Jun Shi said. Alas, a pity, a pity! One hundred and eighty thousand captives, all of them sold as slaves, how much will it cost? "


    Guo Jia chuckles.


    Ganning is really a money addict.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Gan Ning and said, "go to organize and gather all the prisoners in the camp. Even if it''s big night, it should be arranged. This time, I will lecture myself. "


    "Here it is


    Ganning clasped his fist, turned around and stepped back.


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, many of these 180000 soldiers will publicize your Majesty''s holiness after they leave. At that time, LAN''s city will be the second city without thunder. There will be countless people in LAN''s city who will be grateful for your Majesty''s kindness. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I hope so!"


    They chatted, and when Gan Ning came back to report that everything was arranged properly, they went straight to the school yard in the camp.

 Chapter 1337

    At night, the torch crackled in the school yard.


    One by one, all the soldiers in Lancaster city were standing in the school yard. The faces of these soldiers were full of fear. Even in the war during the day, Zhang Xiu tried to persuade them to surrender, but now they didn''t get the order, and they didn''t know what Zhang Xiu would do to them.


    In particular, there have been rumors in the army that Zhang Xiu wanted to sell people as slaves.


    So the soldiers are worried.


    The soldiers murmured, and the school yard where more than 100000 people gathered, even if it was murmured, the whole environment was buzzing, just like a noisy downtown.


    "Your Majesty is here!"


    Suddenly, outside the school yard, there was a cry.


    With this cry, the most marginal soldiers stopped talking and looked at the entrance of the school yard. With the movement of these soldiers, more and more soldiers stop talking. Even if they can''t see the entrance of the school yard, they all stand on tiptoe and look, hoping to see Zhang Xiu entering the school yard.


    Instead of wearing armor, Zhang Xiu wore an ordinary dress.


    He went straight to the center of the school yard.


    Soon came to the center of the stage, at this moment, everyone''s eyes, Qi brush fell on Zhang Xiu''s body.


    All waiting for Zhang Xiu to speak.


    Zhang Xiu looked around. Under the red fire, there was a lot of noise in the camp. There were still many people talking in a low voice.


    "Silence


    Zhang Xiu called.


    The following translation starts immediately.


    Put the voice of the report into every soldier''s ears, and there was no more talk in the hall. Everyone no longer spoke, the whole school yard was quiet, only the sound of crackling and burning torches.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and said, "I summoned you all night to tell you that what I said has not been invalid. All of you are no longer a pariah, no longer a slave, but a living free man. "


    "You are free!"


    Zhang Xiu''s words are almost to roar.


    At this time, the soldiers who had been quite uneasy in their hearts were completely relieved. Since Zhang Xiu dares to say that they are free, she will not deal with them, so they are safe.


    At this moment, everyone is relieved.


    Stop worrying about your situation.


    His state of mind is also completely relaxed, and his heart is extremely stable.


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu went on to say, "there are more than 180000 soldiers in this school, all of them are soldiers of the city. Some of you are soldiers of blue city, and some of you are private soldiers belonging to the nobles of blue city. But without exception, you are now all the people of Lancaster city. "


    "Therefore, my first order is that next, I will release you to leave, and let you return to your homes and live in Lancaster city."


    Zhang Xiu gave a promise.


    Once these words came out, the scene was boiling.


    At this moment, the people who had been quiet suddenly became noisy again. They are noisy, not because of what they want, but because of their inner joy.


    Zhang Xiuyan looked at the cheering people. Although there was a loud noise in his ear, he did not speak immediately. He stood quietly on the stage and let the more than 100000 soldiers talk.


    After half a sound, the scene gradually quieted down.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "tomorrow morning, after breakfast, you are free to choose the reason. But here I have your second choice, that is, those who are willing to stay and join the army can stay and accept the selection. "


    "Any soldier who has passed the selection and entered the army. He enjoyed the same salary as the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty. "


    "Equal treatment."


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you don''t want to stay, I will give you some money to return to Lanshi city. Go back to your family and continue to live in blue city. "


    Boom!!!


    Once these words were said, the whole campus seemed to explode.


    All the blue city soldiers are boiling.


    Qin army conscription, once through the selection, will enjoy the same treatment as Qin army. Such a first treatment is enough to make countless blue city soldiers boiling, enough to make countless blue city soldiers crazy.


    This is their chance.


    Of course, there are many blue city soldiers who stop here and are willing to leave, so they are calm.


    But many people are looking forward to it.


    After Zhang Xiu''s words, he looked at the soldiers in LAN''s city who were talking and even very happy. He didn''t say any more and turned to leave. The reason why he wanted to announce this order in person was that only in front of everyone could all the soldiers in LAN''s city be convinced. Even if the soldiers in LAN''s city left, they would remember that Zhang Xiu was good.


    This is to establish Zhang Xiu''s own reputation.


    After Zhang Xiu left, Gan Ning took all the soldiers of LAN''s city back to the rest place in turn.When the army camp in Lanshi city gradually subsided, Indra, Dixu and a group of generals stopped to have a rest on the official road far away or even close to Lanshi city.


    During the day, they were worried that they would be chased, and that there would be soldiers to rob and kill them in Lancaster City, so they all took the path and drove fast. They didn''t dare to stop and rest until it was dark.


    One face after another was full of embarrassment.


    All of us are very disappointed.


    The expression on Indra''s face was even more gloomy. This time he went north to the city of Ramsey, he wanted to make a contribution, and then came to the city of Peshawar with his contribution. But now, with Zhang Xiu seizing Lan''s city, everything has turned into a dream.


    Indra glanced around, and finally his eyes fell on emperor Xu and said, "teacher, our plan in LAN''s city is no longer possible. What shall we do next? "


    Emperor Xu was also quite tired.


    After all, he is not a young man. After a day''s running, his body is very hard, and his whole body seems to be falling apart. At this time, Emperor Xu wanted to lie on the ground and have a good rest.


    Listening to Indra''s words, the emperor must say: "fourth prince, now that the plan of LAN''s city has failed, he can only go south to return to mogatuo city. Mobilize our army and go straight to Peshawar. Although losing the power of defeating the Qin army and seizing Peshawar, it will add a lot of trouble. However, I don''t care so much. We are strong enough to capture Peshawar. "


    When the generals around heard this, they all had a bright eye.


    Unexpectedly, Indra still has strength.


    Even Indra could capture Peshawar. Once Indra captured Peshawar, he was the king of Kushan. They follow Indra and naturally benefit.


    Indra noticed the change of the general''s attitude around him. He said to the teacher in secret: "what the teacher said is true. Next, we will go straight south to mogatuo city. Next, take the city of Peshawar and end Kushan''s internal struggle. "


    Emperor must say: "the fourth Prince Shengming!"


    The rest echoed.


    Indra was also relieved. Although he was in a state of confusion, he had to be with the emperor, and his morale was stable. So Indra was not worried. He took people to rest for a while. Instead of rest, he continued to go south in the light of night.

 Chapter 1338

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu gets up early. When he does morning exercises, the soldiers in the army have already begun to eat. Including the captive 180000 troops of blue city, they also had breakfast.


    When Zhang Xiu finished her morning exercise and had breakfast, Gan Ning began to release the soldiers in LAN''s city who wanted to leave. Every soldier who wanted to leave was given a month''s salary and some food.


    These are from the big barracks in blue city.


    It''s money and food in the camp.


    Although it costs a lot, everyone is happy.


    Wave after wave of blue city soldiers, constantly leaving the barracks. This alone has been going on all morning. More than 130000 soldiers left the city and less than 60000 remained.


    It''s voluntary.


    However, it has not been selected yet.


    Zhang Xiu did not participate in the selection.


    The soldiers in the army were selected by Gan Ning, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan. All afternoon, soldiers were selected. Among the nearly 60000 soldiers left behind, less than 20000 really agreed with the conditions. The soldiers in LAN''s city, who were equally distributed to Gan Ning and others, actually got less than 20000 per person.


    The rest of the blue city soldiers gave money and money and left. But the soldiers who volunteered to stay, though they had never been admitted, were paid one more month''s salary when they left.


    It''s compensation for them.


    After the selection, the army took a rest in Tianmen Mountain for another night, and then set out for Lanshi city the next morning.


    The army marched forward without any invasion.


    Even the release of Zhang Xiu''s prisoners was publicized by the soldiers of LAN''s city who had left Tianmen Mountain. In a short time, it had spread. Therefore, the image of Zhang Xiu was completely established in the hearts of the Kushan people.


    For ordinary people, Zhang Xiu is the Lord of mercy.


    For the Kushan nobles, Zhang Xiu was the devil and the one who cut off their foundation.


    No matter how the noble of Kushan resented Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu was a great benefactor and Savior to thousands of Kushan people, which made countless Kushan people out of misery.


    As the army passed by, some people came to welcome it.


    This is a way to meet each other.


    In particular, when Zhang Xiu''s army approached the city of LAN''s city, more people met each other. Countless people, cheering the arrival of the Qin army, cheering the arrival of Zhang Xiu.


    There are even Kushan people who wrote songs in praise of Zhang Xiu and his deeds of liberating the people. It can be said that today in Wulei city and Lanshi City, Zhang Xiu has been a savior in general.


    If anyone wants to fight against Zhang Xiu, he is against everyone.


    Seeing this, Zhang Xiu can only feel that the caste system in Kushan has oppressed countless people. Now these people are liberated, and the power they release is endless.


    Even if Zhang Xiu''s army is no longer going south, the changes of Wulei city and Lanshi city will definitely spread to the South and let countless Kushan people know, thus shaking the foundation of Kushan.


    Throughout Kushan, there must be other people of insight who will stand up and shake the caste system.


    Now it''s at the north gate of blue city.


    City gate.


    Pang Tong, Kunda and other officials of LAN''s city all lined up to welcome Zhang Xiu. Because Zhang Xiu''s army is about to arrive at Lanshi city. There are also dense masses of people around, all holding flags, or holding flowers in their hands, talking about each other, and then overlooking the official road in the distance.


    Everyone is waiting for Zhang Xiu to arrive.


    "Here comes your majesty, the emperor of Qin."


    In the crowd, suddenly there was a loud cry. With this cry, everyone''s eyes, together brush to look into the distance. I saw a creeping black line on the official road in the distance.


    This black line is getting closer.


    A moment later, it was clear that it was the Qin army.


    The people cheered at once.


    Countless people sang and danced, cheering the arrival of the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu.


    Kunda saw this scene and said with emotion: "Pang Junshi, the emperor''s prestige in the city is the highest since the city was built. I''ve lived in Lancaster city for decades, and I''ve never seen anyone with the prestige of his majesty. "


    Pang Tong said with a smile: "there is an old saying in the Qin Dynasty, which was said by ancient sages. Those who have gained the Tao help more, while those who have lost the Tao help less. In order to save thousands of people, the emperor naturally got the support of thousands of people. This is the way to help more people. On the contrary, the nobles of Kushan oppressed and enslaved the common people, and no one regarded the common people as human beings, so they were the wrong doers with little help. "


    "Brilliant, really brilliant!"


    Kunda listened with emotion.


    With their discussion, the army led by Zhang Xiu was approaching. At this time, Pang Tong and Kunda went straight ahead and came to the position of Zhang Xiu in front of him.


    Pang Tong bowed his body and said, "Your Majesty, I have fulfilled my mission and successfully won the blue city."Kunda also bows.


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "Shiyuan, you''ve done a good job."


    "Thank you for your compliment."


    Pang Tong''s answer is neither humble nor overbearing.


    In fact, it is not difficult for Pang Tong to succeed this time. After all, Kunda has arranged everything in blue city. All he has to do is plan.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Kunda, saying: "Kunda, you have made a great contribution to the success of LAN''s city this time. If you don''t pay, even Pang tong can''t go there in a short time. "


    Kundalian said quickly: "Your Majesty, I''m so successful. It also depends on your Majesty''s prestige and wise decision. Otherwise, I can''t make it


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Unexpectedly, Kunda, a swordsman and a martial arts man, had a lot of angry words, which was beyond his expectation. However, Kunda''s contribution is indelible. Kunda is the first to win Lan''s city.


    Zhang xiudao said, "it''s your credit, it''s your credit. I know it very well."


    Long live your majesty


    At this time, the people on both sides of the road, suddenly someone shouting.


    Long live your majesty


    Long live your majesty


    More and more people in LAN''s city cried out that many of them came back from Tianmen Mountain. When they returned to the city, they were reunited with their families and had a very stable life.


    Under Pang Tong''s administration, today''s LAN''s city is also following the example of Wulei City, constantly providing work for relief, digging canals, building roads, etc., so that countless people can earn money to support their families.


    In particular, without the aristocracy, the people will not be squeezed.


    The whole city of Lanchester is a harmonious scene.


    Therefore, countless people in LAN''s city, grateful to Zhang Xiu, more grateful for Zhang Xiu''s kindness, a loud cry. The cries echoed in the air for a long time.


    Zhang Xiu stood at the gate of the city, hearing the cry of the people, and a smile came up from the corner of her mouth.


    People can use it!


    In other words, the common people are very simple people. If you give them tangible benefits, then these simple people will be remembered.


    "Into the city!"


    Zhang Xiu takes a deep breath, depresses the mood in her heart, and orders her to enter the city.


    The army marched into the city.


    The troops were stationed in the barracks in the city, while Zhang Xiu, Guo Jia and others went straight to the main residence. After entering the city Lord''s mansion, the guests and the host take their seats. Sitting on the throne, Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and asked, "Shiyuan, because of the need for Tuoluo and emperor to flee Tianmen Mountain, the soldiers did not catch up. Now, is there any news of Indra in the city of Ramsey? "


    "Yes!"


    Pang Tong nodded his head and said, "Your Majesty, Indra has left the territory of LAN''s city with Emperor''s beard and has gone down to the south. After Indra left the city, he asked people to tell him that he would definitely kill him back to the city and take revenge. "


    Zhang Xiu disdains a way: "I pour hope, he comes early revenge."


    For Indra, Zhang Xiu didn''t care.


    So the emperor must have some scheming.


    We need to pay attention.

 Chapter 1339

    Pang Tong mentioned the affairs of Indra. Seeing that Zhang Xiu didn''t pay much attention to it, he didn''t go deep into it. As soon as the words changed, he immediately explained the administrative measures in Lanshi city.


    It took nearly half an hour.


    Pang Tong reported all the things, and Zhang Xiu answered them one by one.


    All that should be affirmed.


    It should be dealt with immediately.


    After dealing with all kinds of things, Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Kunda, and said in a deep voice: "Kunda, this time you can win the blue city, your credit is in the first place. If it wasn''t for you, blue city wouldn''t have taken it so easily


    Kunda said modestly, "Your Majesty praises me. I''m just relying on your Majesty''s prestige. I don''t have any merit."


    Zhang Xiu said: "what reward do you want. As long as I can satisfy you, I will satisfy you. "


    Kunda thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "Your Majesty, there is something for the grass people. I beg your Majesty''s approval."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the matter?"


    Kunda said: "Cao min is a swordsman, but he is not from a good family and has no famous teacher to teach him. His swordsmanship is all his own thinking. These days, I have learned a lot of swordsmanship theories with Shia. However, still hazy, no one to guide. I heard that Master Wang Yue, master Shi''a''s teacher, is good at fencing. Kunda implored his majesty to allow me to worship Master Wang Yue as my teacher. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Laughter, full of joy.


    He looked at Wang Yue and said with a smile: "Wang Yue, it seems that your pulse is going to spread in Lan Shi City. This time, it''s your chance. How about it? "


    Wang Yue bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Kunda is not only good in character, but also good in swordsmanship. It''s also my honor to accept Kunda as an apprentice. "


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "Kunda, please be a teacher!"


    "Yes, yes!"


    Kunda got excited when he heard that.


    He is looking forward to the progress in fencing, because he wants to be accomplished in fencing.


    Kunda turned to look at Wang Yue, pushed the golden mountain to the jade pillar, knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said: "disciple Kunda, I''d like to see the teacher. Please show mercy to the teacher and teach me swordsmanship."


    "Get up!"


    Wang Yue said in a deep voice, "I accept you as a disciple."


    "Thank you, teacher!"


    Kunda got up respectfully.


    Kunda at this moment, it''s incomparable.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Kunda, it''s your personal business to worship Wang Yue as a teacher. But you have to give credit to the city. Today''s Lancheng people need to govern. I appoint you to be the vice mayor of LAN''s city to assist the mayor in handling government affairs. "


    "Thank you


    Kunda didn''t refuse, so he responded directly.


    The post of city Lord is very important. He lacks this ability, so he doesn''t expect anything. Now, he is very happy to be the Deputy Lord of the city. After all, he was Kunda, and he had an opportunity.


    Zhang Xiu changed her words and continued: "Kunda, I have just arrived at LAN''s city. I don''t know about Lan''s city. Even if you know something, it''s through Pang Tong and your elaboration. "


    "I''m in LAN''s city, and I want to invite people of insight from LAN''s city to come to the Lord''s residence to discuss the Countermeasures for the governance of LAN''s city. At the same time, they will also be involved in the governance of the city


    "You''re a man of blue city, a man of fame and talent who knows blue city well. The first thing you do when you become the vice mayor of the city is to send out famous people and invite the famous people of LAN''s city to come to discuss business. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "how long will it take you to finish this?"


    "One day!"


    Kunda, a quick tempered man, answered immediately.


    One day is enough for him to arrange a lot of things.


    Enough to invite everyone.


    Guo Jia sat at the bottom, with a bright smile on his face, and said: "Your Majesty''s extensive invitation to celebrities to discuss politics is an excellent plan. But I have some ideas about discussing politics. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Guo Jia said: "today''s governance of Lanshi City, and even the governance of more Kushan cities in the future. According to the minister''s suggestion, if all the officials are transferred from China, they will not be allowed. "


    "So, as your majesty mentioned, it is necessary to summon people to participate in politics. Then, the governance of Lanshi city can also be selected from the local people of Kushan. As long as the main position is under our control, the local governance mainly depends on the Kushan people. "


    "Chen''s suggestion is that from the beginning of LAN''s city, some people will be selected to govern the place in a planned and arranged way. This time, they will be allowed to express their opinions and make arrangements as appropriate. "


    "That''s what I think," Guo said


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "those who know me will be filial! The reason why I want to call on all people to discuss politics is that I hope that some people can participate in politics. In this way, the whole Kushan governance can achieve the effect of long-term stability. Otherwise, the management of Kushan will not be good. "Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Kunda answered and echoed: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that you will be informed. The people who are sure to participate are all famous people in blue city and people with ideas. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "just try your best."


    For those who came to participate, Zhang Xiu had some hope, but in fact, she had no hope. After all, today''s LAN''s city is not very civilized, and there are not many capable ordinary people.


    After everything is handled properly, Zhang Xiu stays in the city master''s mansion, while Kunda leaves the city master''s mansion and gets busy quickly.


    He began to carry out his administrative duties.


    ¡­¡­


    Blue city, inside the city.


    In the west of the city, there is a house.


    The owner of the house is Jiang Yiyan.


    Although he is not the name of Kushan, in fact, he is a native of Lanshi. But his great grandfather, who came from Wimbledon, took root in the city.


    Now, it has been more than a hundred years.


    Although he still has a surname, and even Jiang Yiyan himself has dark hair and skin, in fact, Jiang Yiyan has long been a Kushan, and he has regarded himself as a Kushan.


    Jiang Yiyan is quite talented and learned.


    I read some books.


    Therefore, Jiang Yiyan is a very prestigious person among the civilians in LAN''s city. Jiang Yiyan, in particular, is very good at being a man. He has widely accepted apprentices to teach him how to inquire. Even so, Jiang Yiyan has won the support of many poor people.


    On this day, Jiang Yiyan''s hall was overcrowded.


    There are many local people in the crowd.


    They are all quite famous.


    Everyone gathered in Jiang Yiyan''s house.


    Jiang Yiyan looked around at everyone, looked back, and said, "you guys, I''m flattered that you''ve come together! It is said that the emperor arranged Kunda, the vice mayor of LAN''s city, to invite the famous people of LAN''s city to discuss the policy of governing Lan''s city. Some of you have already received the invitation. "


    After a pause, Jiang Yiyan continued: "I''ve never received an invitation. I''m not qualified to attend. But you still have to come. It''s really a light on my face and a light on my house. "


    When they heard this, they were relieved that Jiang Yiyan''s invitation had not been sent, but Jiang Yiyan''s invitation had not been sent yet.


    One of these people is called abagon.


    This man is a businessman.


    He also had a small fortune in the city of Lancaster, and he had a great reputation among merchants. So, I also received the invitation.


    Abagon said, "Mr. Jiang, if you don''t see me. Even if I received the invitation, I would not participate. The reason why we have made a little success and have a good life is that we rely on Mr. Jiang to preach and teach us, to reason and enlighten us, so that we will not be ignorant. It''s all thanks to Mr. Jiang. "


    As soon as the words came out, the others echoed.


    "Master!"


    Just at this time, the sound of footsteps came from outside the hall, but the servant of Jiang Yiyan''s family came in. He knelt down on the ground with a plop and said, "master, there''s someone coming from the Lord''s house. They say they''re sending invitation cards."


    Jiang Yiyan brushed and stood up.


    There was a twinkle in his eyes.


    There was a look of excitement in his eyes.


    Jiang Yiyan''s age is quite old, but at this moment, he can''t see the slightest age. He can be described as walking fast and fast. In the blink of an eye, he rushed out of the hall and went straight to the entrance of the house.

 Chapter 1340

    After a few words, Jiang had already rushed to the gate of the mansion. In the old days, Jiang Yiyan was a little short of breath because of his old age, not to mention rushing directly from the hall to the door of the house. I''m afraid he would be out of breath on weekdays. But this moment of Jiang Yiyan, no breath, only endless excitement.


    Here we go!


    He finally got there!


    Jiang Yiyan looked at the servant who came to the door to deliver the letter, straightened his clothes a little, and then said, "why do you come down to my house


    The messenger took out an invitation and said, "are you Jiang Yiyan?"


    "Yes


    Jiang Yiyan leaned slightly and said, "I''m Jiang Yiyan. I''m a fake one."


    The servant nodded, handed out the invitation and said, "this is an invitation from his majesty, the emperor of Qin, to invite you to a banquet held in the city hall on May 15. At that time, please arrive on time


    "Yes, yes, it must arrive on time."


    Jiang Yiyan replied happily.


    When he held the invitation, his hands trembled slightly, and his heart was beating incessantly.


    Even in my head, there is a blank.


    May 15!


    The Lord''s residence is at the banquet!


    At that time, it will be the time to participate in and discuss state affairs.


    Jiang Yiyan watched the servant leave with a long sigh of relief. At this time, he heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind him. He knew that the people in the house were coming. He shook his sleeve robes and took a deep breath. The whole person''s look of expectation and tension disappeared and turned into a thin appearance.


    "Congratulations to Mr. Jiang, congratulations to Mr. Jiang!"


    Among the crowd, abagon was the first to speak.


    The rest spoke.


    Everyone was smiling.


    Jiang Yiyan waved his hand and said, "ladies and gentlemen, this is the favor of the emperor. But for me, I don''t think there''s anything to be happy about. After all, it is not an easy thing to govern the local government. "


    "What Mr. Jiang said is true."


    Abagong immediately opened his mouth and entered the mansion with Jiang Yiyan and others.


    Jiang Yiyan is a half baked teacher in his life. He has taught some people and gained some fame. However, from beginning to end, he was an ordinary person. After all, he could not be an aristocrat in Kushan.


    Now, Jiang Yiyan sees hope.


    However, in front of everyone, Jiang Yiyan didn''t show it. He was still calm and said, "you guys, when it comes to participating in politics, we have to have something to say. We have to be able to seek real benefits for the people of LAN''s city. Therefore, we must not be careless in this matter. "


    Abagong said: "Mr. Jiang is right. In fact, we are here to see you because Mr. Jiang is the most knowledgeable person among us. I hope Mr. Jiang can give us some advice and give us a direction. Otherwise, we''re flying around, and I''m afraid we''ll end up making people laugh and look down on the people in LAN''s city. "


    "Yes, yes! We can''t let the Qin people look down on the Kushan people in LAN''s city. "


    "Yes, it can''t be looked down upon."


    One by one, people keep talking.


    In fact, there is a sense of inferiority in their words. They are the people of blue city, right, but in fact, they are the bottom of blue city and have been under pressure all the time.


    So everyone, I hope to get attention.


    Jiang Yiyan finished listening to everyone''s words, his face showed a smile.


    He likes the feeling of being surrounded.


    He likes the feeling of being valued.


    Jiang Yiyan waved his hand and everyone was quiet. One by one, Qi Shushu falls on Jiang Yiyan, waiting for Jiang Yiyan to speak and point out the direction for them.


    Jiang Yiyan coughed two times, and said: "you guys, we need to participate in and discuss politics. The most important point is to strive for more benefits for the Kushan people in LAN''s city, so that the people in LAN''s city can get more preferential treatment. Do you agree with that? "


    "Yes!"


    Abagon and others, Qiqi agreed.


    Jiang Yiyan said: "so for the promotion of the interests of the people in Lanshi City, I think there are four suggestions."


    Abagon said, "you say it!"


    Jiang Yi said: "first, the people of Lanshi city should enjoy more kindness. Especially in recent years, people in Lanshi city have been killed and injured countless times. So first, we should encourage the people of Lanshi city to have children. However, for those who give birth to more than one child, they will be rewarded; for those who give birth to more than two children, the reward will be increased; for those who give birth to more than three children, the reward will continue to increase. In a word, we should make use of this policy to improve the population of the people in LAN''s city. "


    "The second suggestion is to give the people of Lanshi the privilege of reading. For the local people in Lanshi City, they can study for free and get preferential treatment from the government college. After all, compared with the people of Qin Dynasty, the foundation of the people in LAN''s city is weak, especially the people in LAN''s city are squeezed. Therefore, we should give some preferential treatment. ""The third proposal is to give the people of Lanshi city the privilege to be officials. When people in LAN''s city want to become officials after studying, they can consider giving corresponding special treatment, at least more preferential treatment than Qin people. After all, this is Lan''s city. More officials should be the people of LAN''s city. "


    Jiang Yiyan''s eyes twinkled with light, and continued: "the fourth proposal is on taxation. The businessmen and the people in Lanshi City, whether it is agricultural tax or commercial tax, should be reduced. Only by reducing taxes can we enhance the competitiveness of the local Blue''s city and enable them to survive. "


    After four o''clock, Jiang Yiyan shook his sleeve and said, "this is my suggestion."


    Abagon said with a smile, "good advice!"


    Others, too, have been flattering.


    For them, Jiang Yiyan''s suggestion is entirely based on the guishuang people. According to such a way to promote, then the Kushan fever in Lanshi City, that is the aristocracy of the past.


    Enjoy too many benefits.


    Businessmen like abagon, in particular, prefer tax cuts. Because once the tax is reduced, they can make more money. In addition, there is no aristocracy now, and their merchants'' status has been promoted, which makes abagon even more happy.


    Abagon said: "Mr. Jiang, we are all stupid people. We are not good at words and we can''t tell things clearly. So you have to take the lead in this matter. "


    "Yes, it must be led by Mr. Jiang."


    "It depends on ginger."


    One by one, they keep talking.


    Everyone looked at Jiang Yiyan with expectation in their eyes. Some people even touted Jiang Yiyan, saying that Jiang Yiyan had the blood of the Qin people and would be recognized by the emperor.


    Jiang Yiyan was the one who liked to listen to these words. After listening to the praise one by one, he finally said, "you guys, I will do my best to live up to your expectations. As far as the well-being of thousands of people in Lanshi city is concerned, this matter must be handled properly. Otherwise, when countless Qin people come, our treatment will certainly be reduced. So now, we have to set the tone. "


    Abagong said: "Jiang Laoyan is right!"


    The rest echoed.


    One by one flattering words, make Jiang Yiyan have some gone with the wind, that pair of turbid eyes are narrowed into a line. The folds on his face all spread out at this moment, revealing Jiang Yiyan''s joy.


    Jiang Yiyan specially left all the people to drink in the house. After a meal, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves, and everyone got the desired results. They came to see Jiang Yiyan in the hope that he would stand up and speak for them.


    Now, they have.


    Of course, Jiang Yiyan himself enjoyed it.

 Chapter 1341

    By the end of lunch, some people had left, but abagon did not stay, but chose to stay.


    Abagon''s face was slightly red, with a trace of blush.


    After all, I drank a lot of wine.


    Jiang Yiyan''s eyes fell on Abagong and said with a smile, "Abagong, everyone has left. You stay alone. I don''t know if you stay. What do you want to say? "


    Abagon looked around and looked at the waiter who was cleaning up the wine bowl.


    These are Jiang Yiyan''s servants.


    Jiang Yiyan, an old man, became a master. As soon as he waved his hand, all the attendants in the hall stepped down. There was no one left, leaving only Jiang Yiyan and Abagong in the hall.


    Jiang Yi said, "abagon, tell me, what else do you have to do?"


    Abagon said: "Mr. Jiang, Kunda is now the deputy head of the city. But the Lord of the city is always in vain. "


    "No, no!"


    Jiang Yi said: "I don''t dare to expect the position of city master."


    Jiang Yiyan is clear about his own situation. Although he has some reputation in the market, in fact, he is not a bit worse than Kunda. Kunda, in particular, made military contributions and made great contributions to the city.


    Such a person is only a deputy city master.


    He is an ordinary man.


    If you want to be the Lord of the city without any credit, it''s a fool''s dream. What''s more, you play Zhang Xiu as a monkey.


    Abagong said with a smile: "don''t worry, Mr. Jiang. I don''t have the idea of recommending you to be the Lord of the city. The Lord of LAN''s city must be Zhang Xiu''s confidant and also an official of Qin people. In this way, Zhang Xiu can rest assured. "


    "What I want to say is that although the city master is empty, Kunda is the only deputy city master now. A single deputy city master is not enough to help the city master deal with government affairs. "


    "Especially under the premise that the master of the city chooses to be vacant, a deputy master is far from enough."


    "We need more vice Lords."


    "In my opinion, it takes at least three to five people for the Deputy City Master of LAN''s city to maintain the normal operation of LAN''s city and make the operation of LAN''s city more smooth."


    Abagon said: "so my idea is to recommend Mr. Jiang as the deputy city leader. Of course, it''s up to Mr. Jiang to nod. With Mr. Jiang''s approval, I can arrange people to operate it. "


    Jiang Yiyan''s eyes narrowed.


    He thought about abagon''s proposal in his heart. At the same time, Jiang Yiyan also thought about why abagon recommended him to be the deputy city leader, which was a crucial position.


    I got the invitation itself, too.


    It can be said that abagon has a wide range of contacts because of his business. Although abagon was once and was taught by Jiang Yiyan, his power and contacts far exceeded Jiang Yiyan.


    Abagon itself can also serve as a deputy Lord.


    After all, abagon is good at dancing.


    Jiang Yiyan took a deep breath and said, "Abagong, the Ming people don''t talk in secret. It''s good for you to recommend me. But the problem is, with your connections, you can also get people to recommend you. As long as you are the deputy city master, you can also get the benefits you need. "


    Abagong shook his head and said, "Mr. Jiang, you have made things simple."


    Jiang Yi says: "how to say?"


    With a smile on his lips, abagon said, "I was born as a businessman. This is a cheap business in LAN''s city. It''s not much different from the Dalits. And in Daqin, according to the basic arrangement of Daqin''s agriculture, industry and commerce, I am a businessman with a very low background. "


    "I want to be the vice mayor. It''s impossible."


    "No one will be convinced."


    "So it''s impossible for me to be the vice mayor of the city of Lancaster."


    "It''s decided by birth."


    Abagon continued: "the most important thing is that although I have contacts, they are all contacts of interests and can not help me. On the contrary, Jiang has enough prestige, and he has an advantage. "


    "You are the blood of the Qin people."


    "You also have the blood of the kusana."


    "The combination of the two makes Mr. Jiang be able to stand on both sides of Daqin and guishuang. To put it simply, Jiang''s blood can make you step on two boats. "


    Abagon said: "so my choice is to recommend Mr. Jiang to the top. In this way, when Mr. Jiang comes to power, he will take care of me and facilitate my business in abagon. This is my investment. "


    After listening to Jiang Yiyan, he recognized it in his heart.


    He also eliminated his own advantages.


    Jiang Yiyan also recognized abagon''s weakness.


    Abagon said, "what do you think, Mr. Jiang?"


    "Yes!"


    Jiang Yi said, "I will grant your request. However, the requirements you mentioned are certainly not as simple as commercial convenience. Come on, what more requests do you have? "Abagon said with a smile: "there are indeed some requests."


    Jiang Yi said: "come on, as long as it''s within my power, I won''t refuse. But if it''s beyond my ability, I can''t do it. "


    Abagong said: "don''t worry, it''s a small thing. Now Wulei city began to plant tobacco in large quantities, and then Daqin tobacco industry came into being. "


    "I''ve found the city of Lancaster, which is not there yet."


    "I''m going to take the city of Langley."


    "It''s a profit breakthrough."


    Abagon''s eyes flashed a light and said, "of course, in return, I can give Mr. Jiang 10% of the net profit. It''s a reward to Mr. Jiang. "


    Jiang Yiyan frowned and said, "I''ve heard about the tobacco industry, but in fact, it''s not a strange thing."


    Abagon laughed and said, "Mr. Jiang, when it comes to teaching and educating people, when it comes to talent and learning, I can''t compare with you. Even compared with you, not even a finger. But when it comes to business, you are far from me


    "The reason why I have this conclusion is that his Majesty the emperor of the Qin Dynasty has promoted the tobacco industry. Even his Majesty the emperor of Qin took the initiative to smoke. With this premise, there will be countless people who will follow suit. "


    "In particular, I have tried to buy cigarettes through my own channels. Although it''s a bit irritating, it''s a very relaxing way to get used to it. "


    "It will be accepted by countless people."


    Abagon said: "so in the future, it will be popular in the whole Kushan. This is a rare opportunity. I have to seize it in advance. As long as I seize this opportunity, my business position in blue city will be unshakable. "


    There was a fierce look in his eyes.


    He is sure of this.


    In order to achieve his goal, we can''t accomplish it by ourselves. We need someone to open the way, and more importantly, we need someone to escort us.


    Therefore, abagon needs Jiang Yiyan''s support.


    After hearing this, Jiang Yiyan said, "I agree, but only if I can become the deputy leader of LAN''s city. As long as I succeed, I will fulfill my promise. "


    Abagong said: "well, Mr. Jiang, just wait for the news."


    "Goodbye!"


    Abagon turned and left.


    Next, he is going to arrange the election of Jiang Yiyan, which requires him to lobby in person. Only in this way can we ensure that most people support Jiang Yiyan.


    Jiang Yiyan watched Abagong leave, and his eyes also looked forward to it.


    For most of his life, he lived a normal life.


    No achievement.


    But Jiang Yiyan''s heart, in fact, is to build a career. Once he did not have the opportunity, but now, the opportunity has come, so Jiang Yiyan will not miss this opportunity.

 Chapter 1342

    Time flies into May.


    It''s getting hot in May.


    Inside the wind, there is already a hot and dry atmosphere, as if it would arouse people''s restlessness.


    Zhang Xiu in this period of time, but almost did not stay in the city. His main business is to visit the streets and the whole city to learn about the local situation.


    Zhang Xiu entrusted Pang Tong with the administration of LAN''s city.


    In fact, Pang Tong was also dealt with temporarily.


    Zhang Xiu has already sent an order to Xun Yu in Wulei city to transfer him from the rear and let him take charge of everything in LAN''s city. After all, Xun Yu is an old professional in local governance and government affairs.


    Zhang Xiu is still walking in the countryside.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu took Wang Yue and Shi a to a place called Mazi village. It is said that in this village, one year, all the people in the village became pockmarked, so it was named pockmarked village. But in fact, all pockmarks in the village are intact.


    There are more than 30 households in the village.


    It''s a relatively large village.


    Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue and Shi a are all dressed in coarse linen, which is very simple, so they can''t see their origins. In addition, during this period of time, they have been travelling and visiting all over the world, so whether they are Zhang Xiu, Wang Yue or Shi a, their skin is much darker.


    It doesn''t look like a white lady.


    It''s like a farmer.


    After all, Zhang Xiu now, has convergence of breath, not like before so breath outside, give people the feeling of majesty and hegemony. On the contrary, Zhang Xiu''s face is wearing a smile, which makes people very close.


    Now, when Zhang Xiu comes to Mazi village, he wants to know the local situation on the spot.


    Especially now, it''s almost evening.


    It''s getting late.


    After entering, Zhang Xiu and his party knocked on the door outside a barren house at the entrance of the village.


    The door ring banged on the door. Soon after, an old man in his early fifties strode out and pushed the door open. When the old man saw Zhang Xiu and his party, he said, "what can I do for you


    Zhang Xiu took the initiative to say: "old man, we are the people who want to go to Lanshi city through here. Because it was getting late, there was no place to rest and no food. I''m going to stay for one night. Please make it convenient. "


    Today''s Zhang Xiu can speak the local language.


    It''s just a little awkward.


    After all, if you use these words all day long, you will soon learn them. The only difference is that his Kushan dialect has its own accent, which makes it sound a bit awkward.


    The old man said, "are you from the Qin Dynasty?"


    "Yes


    Zhang Xiu answered directly.


    The old man immediately put on a smile, waved his hand and said, "three adults, please come inside!"


    "Thank you very much! Father in law, you are also polite. We are not adults. We are just businessmen who go to Lanshi city to do business. "


    After thanking Zhang Xiu, she took Shi a and Wang Yue into the courtyard.


    It''s near evening.


    The old man is busy making a fire to cook. The dinner in the pot is very simple. It''s noodle soup. For the elderly, such a pimple can endure hunger, and because it is a pimple soup, it is also easy to digest.


    Zhang Xiu and others stayed, so the old man also took out more flour and prepared to make one for Zhang Xiu, Shi a and Wang Yue.


    During this period of time, Zhang Xiu went to many places and had a set of idioms. He sat by the fire stove, talking to the old man and learning about the situation in Mazi village.


    Zhang Xiu consciously changed the topic and led to Daqin. When it comes to the people of Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu said: "father-in-law, now the city of LAN is under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty. I heard that the emperor has ordered to abolish the nobles in the city of LAN. No thunder city without nobles, people''s life is good, after all, no one dares to squeeze people. Have you ever had a better time? "


    The old man picked up a stick, threw it into the stove and said slowly, "it must be much better than before. After all, the aristocrats who used to be domineering are now hanging a sharp sword on their heads and may be killed at any time. So they don''t dare to bully us ordinary people openly. Compared with the original, life is naturally much better


    Hearing the old man''s words, Zhang Xiu was keen to catch the loopholes in the old man''s words and said, "father-in-law, under normal circumstances, the nobles who commit crimes directly check the family."


    "After the investigation by the government, the nobles with good reputation are allowed to pay money to atone for their sins."


    "In this way, there should be some domineering nobles in the whole city. But you said that the nobles did not dare to bully you openly. Is it not the order of the emperor that does not work


    Zhang Xiu raised questions.


    The old man sighed: "childe, things in the world are not as simple as black or white. We old men who don''t know how to manage local affairs don''t understand anything. But the hearts and virtues of the people below are not so simple. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"The old man explained: "as the young master mentioned just now, under normal circumstances, local nobles who have never oppressed the common people can hand over their property and forgive them, and become ordinary civilians."


    "Those who commit crimes must be dealt with. But in fact, no matter good or bad, as long as we use money to get through the relationship, we can be exempted from crime. Even the amount of money paid depends on the official who performs the task. "


    "So many nobles are here now. They only paid a small part of the money, they still have a lot of money in their hands, and they can hire people as thugs. "


    "Nobility is still nobility. It''s not worth provoking."


    "If someone is offended and killed secretly, there is no proof of death. Of course, the environment is much better. "


    The old man said with a smile: "of course, your majesty is kind-hearted and wants to help the people of our city. But such a thing is not so easy to deal with. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "my father-in-law has a point. So when I go to Lanshi city to do business, I still have to keep a low profile. If you get into trouble with some nobleman, you can eat brier and take him with you


    "Don''t worry," the old man said


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to say?"


    The old man replied: "after all, it was Daqin who conquered Lan''s city. The Qin people were in our LAN''s city, and these nobles did not dare to provoke them. These nobles, at most, scare us ordinary people. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you have a point."


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu deeply felt inadequate for the reform of LAN''s city. Originally, he visited some places, and what these places showed was pretty good. But today''s situation threw a basin of cold water on Zhang Xiu''s head.


    This is also the complexity of reform.


    It is not possible to wipe out the illegal aristocracy in one day.


    Local governance is not easy.


    At this time, the old man''s noodle soup was ready, and he served a big bowl to Zhang Xiu, Shi a and Wang Yue. The old man also swallowed it in his own mouth, which was very heroic.


    Zhang Xiu as the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, in fact, rarely eat such a noodle soup. Once in a while, he felt fresh and good. He wiped his mouth and said, "father-in-law, is there a bullying nobleman in your village?"


    "No!"


    The old man shook his head and answered.


    With a proud look on his face, he said, "in our village, there is a nobleman named timidI. Lord Timmy, he''s a very good man. When the Qin army didn''t enter Lan''s city, he would help us in a disaster year. He will borrow food when he meets with difficulties. Now, he gives up all his wealth and lives on his own


    After a pause, the old man looked sad and sighed: "this is a good man! Unfortunately, good people don''t live long, and they don''t come to a good end. "


    "What do you say?"


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, is very unexpected.


    In front of the old man was born ordinary, so Zhang Xiu believed the old man''s words.

 Chapter 1343

    The old man smoothed his sleeve and said with emotion: "Lord timidI used to be an aristocrat and helped many poor families, but he also hated evil and dealt with many rascals. So many people hate Lord Timmy


    "No, there''s a new guptar in our area."


    "Master Gupta, he was humiliated by master timidI."


    "Master Gupta is in charge of ten villages nearby, so now he goes to master timidI''s house to marry his only daughter. Then, let Lord Timmy give the dowry of the dowry, otherwise, we will deal with Lord Timmy. "


    "Now, master Gupta is still in master timidI''s house."


    "Tonight, it''s said, is the deadline."


    "If Lord timidI doesn''t give in, master Gupta will attack Lord timidI."


    The old man looked helpless and said, "this world is getting better and better. However, they are always harsh on good people. His majesty, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, has brought benefits to ordinary people like us, but he has also been hoodwinked and cheated by these villains. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu felt deeply.


    This corruption is not only to be carried out in Daqin, but also in Kushan.


    Because Zhang Xiu suddenly captured Lan''s city, so many places are not familiar with it, and many people do not know it. Pang Tong was in charge of government affairs, which was arranged step by step. In the end, many people didn''t know what was going on.


    After all, Zhang Xiu, Pang Tong and others only look at the general direction.


    The general direction is getting better and better.


    That''s a good sign.


    Zhang Xiu got up and said, "father-in-law, this ancient pagoda is so arrogant. Is there no one to take charge of it?"


    "Who cares?"


    The old man shook his head and said, "young master, you are from the Qin Dynasty, and you are also a businessman. You are not involved in this, so I tell you. Although the young man is old, his strength is strong. Now he has been working outside. So you don''t need to know less about other people. If you ask others, you may not know the details of gupu pagoda, but I do. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you are talkative and have seen the world."


    "That''s it!"


    The old man laughed with complacency, and then continued: "the uncle of gupu pagoda is abagon, a big businessman in LAN''s city. Do you know who abagon is? He was a big businessman. He even heard that his Majesty''s convener was in charge of political affairs, and abagon was among them. Abagon made arrangements at will, and gupu pagoda became an official. "


    Zhang Xiu thumbed up and said, "you are really powerful. You know all the news."


    The old man said, "that''s right!"


    After a pause, the old man sighed again and said, "it''s a pity, it''s a pity! It''s said that a few days ago, Lord Timmy was already angry and ill. I don''t know what kind of situation it is now. "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "let''s go and have a look."


    "Don''t go."


    The old man shook his head and said, "young master, this gupu pagoda is a person who keeps a grudge. If you go, you will get into trouble. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "my father-in-law just said that timidI is a good man. If you are a good person, you can''t be bullied. At least I''m from Qin Dynasty. After I went, gupu tower would not dare to do it. As long as we can protect Timmy, it''s worth it. What''s more, when things get big and in front of the government, I''m from the Qin Dynasty and I have an advantage. "


    As soon as the old man heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened. He had been temporarily occupied by timidI, so he didn''t want timidI''s family to suffer. Now he has hope, so the old man said: "my son is kind-hearted and kind-hearted. He will be rewarded in the future."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''ve accepted your lucky words."


    The old man immediately stood up, ready to go out, and then he stopped, looked at Zhang Xiu again, said: "young master, do you really think about it? If something happens, you may not be able to resist it. "


    Zhang xiudao: "I also have some relations. Don''t be afraid."


    "Good!"


    The old man leaned slightly and said, "young master, please first!"


    Zhang Xiu put down the bowl of dough lump soup in her hand, took Shi a and Wang Yue with the old man and went straight to timidI''s house. There are dozens of families in this village. TimidI''s house is located in the center of the village. In the north is a green hill, and in front is a lake. It is an authentic mountain and water terrain, and the scenery is very good.


    His house is not very big.


    Now there is a circle of people at the door of the house, many of them are onlookers.


    When Zhang Xiu and his party came to the door, they had heard the arrogant voice from the house: "timidI, you old man. Today, it''s the deadline for you. I''ve given you face. But you still pretend to be dead. "


    "I tell you, the upper authorities are cracking down on the nobles."


    "You timidI is also a nobleman. When I look back, I will report that you timidI is a villain and other people. Now, anyone involved in this matter can be executed first and then executed. ""I have orders to kill you first."


    "Your family will not be able to keep it then."


    The voice was Gupta''s. He was very fat and stood at the door of the hall with his hands akimbo. He continued to shout, "Timmy, you just need to marry your daughter to me, and then things will be over. You are my father-in-law after all, and I can''t harm you. This is your only chance. You have to think it over. "


    When people outside the yard heard Gupta''s words, they all talked about it one by one. Many people were worried about the timidI family.


    Secretly sorry for Timmy.


    What a pity!


    A good man should meet such a villain.


    Zhang Xiu has already gone out of the yard. Instead of letting the old man in, he lets the old man wait outside. After all, it involves the old man, so that he won''t be affected.


    Zhang Xiu took people and went to the mansion. As she walked, Zhang Xiu said, "Oh, this is really strange. Not long after entering Lan''s city, I came across this kind of forced marriage through a village. It''s really interesting. I need to see you


    Zhang Xiu''s words are frivolous.


    It''s provocative.


    As soon as he entered timidI''s mansion, the gupu pagoda at the entrance of the hall turned around and faced Zhang Xiu. He bit his teeth and said, "boy, who are you?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "I am an ordinary Qin people, through here. I didn''t expect to encounter this thing. Alas, I thought the territory of LAN''s city should be quite peaceful, but I didn''t expect it to be so dirty. "


    Gupta snorted and said, "boy, get out of here now. This is a private matter of Lao Tzu. It has nothing to do with you. If you want to stay, don''t blame me for picking up people. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "the road is not smooth, some people step on it. Now you bully people. But anyone with a just heart can''t sit back and ignore it. If you let me go, I will not. "


    "You want to die!"


    Gupta clenched his teeth and looked angry.


    Zhang Xiu shrugged her shoulders and said, "even if I''m not distinguished, I''m an ordinary businessman of the Qin Dynasty. But if you want to kill me, can you bear the consequences once the news comes out? "


    Gupta''s eyes twinkled and said, "you''re dead, but no one knows. Boy, I''ll give you one more piece of advice. Leave at once, or don''t blame me for being impolite. "


    After all, it''s the Qin people.


    Gupta''s heart, do not want to make things big.


    If you really kill the Qin people in front of you, gupu pagoda will have to make a lot of arrangements before it can handle things well.


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "I''m not good at anything else, but my head is very hard. You want me to leave, but I won''t. I don''t believe it. Will you bend the law and let you bully Liangshan? "


    "To die!"


    Gupta is biting his teeth. His anger is full.


    He looked at Zhang Xiu and others carefully, and saw that Zhang Xiu''s complexion was slightly dark, and his clothes were all coarse linen, so he could not see any noble appearance. Therefore, gupu pagoda was ready to start.


    Anyway, they are all ordinary people.


    Kill them.


    Especially now it''s an important moment to force the timidI family. No matter what, he can''t admit it. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to handle Timmy.

 Chapter 1344

    With an angry look on his face and an angry look, gupu tower hurled a voice: "boy, since you are going to die. Well, I''ll help you. Son Lang, give me up, tear this boy for me. "


    With a wave of his hand, his entourage rushed out.


    Gupu pagoda, as a person in charge of more than ten surrounding villages, although the government has no soldiers, it does not prevent gupu pagoda from recruiting private soldiers. More than ten of his followers are the rascals recruited by guptah, all of whom are ruthless characters in daily life. One by one, they are ferocious. They have already rushed to the position where Zhang Xiu is.


    But when these followers rushed out, Shi a stepped out and came to Zhang Xiu.


    He held the hilt in his hand. Before the sword came out of its sheath, he thrust it forward with its sheath.


    "Bang!"


    It''s like a blunt scabbard hitting a private soldier''s rib. The strength of the impact made his ribs ache, and he could no longer keep his stability. He fell to the ground, his face was more painful, and he could not help crying.


    Pain!!


    It''s so painful!


    The soldier fell to the ground and did not get up again. Because he found that the people in front of him are cruel characters.


    After Shi a move pokes out, the scabbard withdraws immediately, the left and right horizontal pats.


    "Pa! Bang


    The fierce slapping power slapped the two private soldiers in the face one after another.


    Even Shi a slapped out quickly, but under the impact of strength, the two soldiers showed a look of pain on their faces, and immediately showed their teeth in pain. Even the cheek and gums impact, cheek immediately red swelling up, the whole half of the face, have been unconscious.


    Shi a is like a tiger going down the mountain.


    He''s constantly rushing left and right.


    Under Shi A''s rapid attack, in a short time, all the private soldiers brought by gupu tower were knocked down on the ground. However, although these people fell to the ground, or their legs were broken, or their waists were severely injured, or they were beaten out of strength, none of them were killed, and all of them were still alive.


    Guptah saw this scene, and immediately opened his eyes, with a look of panic on his face.


    How awesome!


    What a man!


    However, gupu pagoda changed his mind and said in a loud voice: "it''s a pity that you follow each other, master of sword. As long as you are willing to follow me, I promise you that you can choose what is popular and what is spicy, even money and women. You know, my uncle is Abagong. He is the person that his majesty of the great Qin emperor wants to meet. You follow me, and I promise you a bright future. "


    Shia''s mouth was full of sarcasm and disdain. He looks at Zhang Xiu, and the look in his eyes is to ask Zhang Xiu how to deal with gupu pagoda.


    Zhang Xiu said, "come back!"


    Shi a immediately withdrew and stood behind Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said lightly: "gupu pagoda, bullying good people, there must be no good fruit to eat."


    Gupta was angry when he saw that Shia ignored him. He turned his eyes and fell on Zhang Xiu, biting his teeth. He looked angry and said in a deep voice, "boy, who are you? How dare you take care of my affairs?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I''m a businessman from Daqin. There''s a saying in Daqin that people trample on the uneven road. You have to bully people. When I see it, I won''t sit back and ignore it."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Gupta burst into laughter as he went to bed.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    Businessman!


    It turned out to be a businessman!


    Gupu pagoda''s heart, originally some fear, after all, the other side is Qin people. In case of any official, even his uncle abagon would not be able to deal with it.


    But now, it''s just a businessman.


    That''s easy.


    After Gupta laughed, there was a voice on the ground: "boy, I tell you clearly. Now, get out of here, or don''t blame me for being rude to you. "


    "Are you going to be rude to me?"


    On Zhang Xiu''s face, there was a cold look.


    Unexpectedly, gupu tower is stubborn.


    Zhang Xiu is a man with outstanding intelligence. As soon as he hears the words of gupu pagoda, he knows that gupu pagoda just moved his intention to kill. If he said that he was an official, Gupta would not dare to make trouble, but he said that he came from a businessman, so Gupta had already begun to prepare to kill.


    Gupu tower said: "no, no, you are from Qin Dynasty. How dare I be rude to you. Young master, I''ll leave immediately. I''m wrong here. Please forgive me


    "Go away!"


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeves are swept.


    Shi a wants to open his mouth, but Zhang Xiu stares at him. Shi a swallows back when he reaches his mouth.


    Gupta did not dare to stay and left in a hurry.


    The rest of the people who were knocked over also left.


    At this moment, all the people in timidI''s family were relieved. Next, a pale, middle-aged man in his early 40s came out, slightly bent and coughing. He looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "thank you for your kindnessZhang Xiu said with a light smile: "it''s too early for you to say thank you now. The gupu pagoda left with people, but it didn''t really leave. Instead, it went back to move rescue soldiers. Next, he will definitely come back in the shortest time. "


    "Ah


    TimidI said, "what do you mean by that?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "gupu pagoda asked me just now and knew that I was a businessman. A businessman of Daqin is not worthy of his fear. But just now, he couldn''t win and didn''t dare to provoke me. So, we have to leave first, go back to move the rescue troops, and then deal with them! "


    Brush!


    Timmy''s face changed slightly.


    At this moment, Timmy''s face was full of worry.


    It never occurred to him that this was the case. Originally, he thought that he was safe and his daughter was safe, but now it seems that the situation has expanded.


    TimidI is not willing to implicate Zhang Xiu.


    So timidI said, "I believe what you say, young man. Gupta is indeed a narrow-minded man, who will be rewarded. You''re just a businessman. You can''t handle Timmy. You don''t have to worry about me. Take the people and leave


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "I''d like to see how many people will be involved in the world. Even, I''d like to see how much power there is behind abagon. "


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu showed a sense of self-confidence.


    This confidence is extremely strong.


    It also shows a touch of supremacy.


    TimidI noticed the change of Zhang Xiu''s expression, but in a moment, timidI saw that Zhang Xiu had returned to normal again, no longer a superior appearance, but a warm appearance.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Mr. timidI, I''m afraid it will take some time to wait for gupu tower to come. It''s boring to have nothing to do for such a long time. Why don''t you ask your family to take a jar of good wine and I''ll wait for it. "


    "I have good wine at home!"


    At this time, the old man who came with Zhang Xiu opened his mouth.


    He and the rest of the people stood at the gate and watched. After all, the gate was open. They stood at the gate and saw the scene of Shi A''s killing all over the place. They felt very happy.


    All of them are hostile to gupu tower.


    After all, since Gupta took office, he has not only extorted money, but also dealt with people recklessly, which is too much.


    Hearing the old man''s words, Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''ll bother you."


    "No trouble, no trouble!"


    The old man left as soon as he ran away, leaving quickly. Soon, the old man took out a jar of sealed wine. At this time, Zhang Xiu also sat on the ground because of the good table.


    The night is getting dark.


    In the yard, the lantern has been lit.


    However, some of the onlookers left, but many remained.


    Zhang Xiu took over the wine jar in the old man''s hand. When she opened it, she felt a refreshing aroma of wine lingering in her breath. Zhang Xiu is good at wine and knows how to drink. Looking at the old man, she said, "my father-in-law, your jar of wine is not simple."


    The old man said with a smile: "I''m flattered, but I''m also a man who knows the goods. This jar of wine has been cellared for 50 years. In 50 years, the wine has been mellow. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded.


    He asked for some wine bowls from Timmy, poured them one by one, and then gave them to the people present.


    Then, a little wine tasting.


    Zhang Xiuben is a very smooth mouthed person. When he opens his mouth, he is full of wit and humor. Even if he is blunt, he also makes people laugh. The atmosphere is very harmonious.

 Chapter 1345

    Zhang Xiu talks and laughs with all the people. When the villagers look at Zhang Xiu, they have more inexplicable confidence. Timmy, the only one, was forced to smile. The more he thought about it, the more worried he felt.


    Because it''s not someone else, it''s Gupta.


    Even abagon.


    If timidI, with his own identity and the power of his family, wanted to deal with abagon before the Qin army entered the city, it would be easy, let alone deal with gupu pagoda. But now, Timmy can do nothing, even Timmy himself, is in serious condition.


    Timmy couldn''t bear it.


    He doesn''t want to drag Zhang Xiu down.


    Therefore, he arranged for his old wife to go to Zhang Xiu''s side and whispered that he had something to talk to Zhang Xiu privately.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed.


    He could see Timmy''s concerns.


    This is a good man.


    In fact, if not, Timmy would not have been so humiliated by Gupta. If timidI was a cruel man, according to the old man''s explanation, many nobles colluded with local officials to abolish the nobles. But in fact, the aristocrats still hold great power, and they are still in the fish and meat country.


    Timmy didn''t.


    So for Zhang Xiu, he is willing to contact the danger of timidI. At the same time, also take this opportunity to beat the officials of the whole city, otherwise the problems of the city still exist.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t refuse, so she got up and went to the hall of the mansion.


    Timmy came in.


    A group of villagers, drinking wine, are still sitting in the courtyard chatting. However, they are more curious and worried when they pass by.


    I thought to myself, what would I discuss with this young master of Qin?


    In the hall, the guest and host are seated.


    Zhang Xiu is sitting in the main position, but timidI is sitting at the bottom.


    At this time, timidI folded his hands, bowed to the ground, kowtowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "young master is a good man, willing to help. But I can''t drag you down. "


    After a pause, timidI said again, "especially Gupta and abagon are not simple characters. If you offend them, you may not even be able to reach the city of Lancaster. You can leave, but when you leave, I have a plea. I hope you can agree. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "if you have any requests, it''s OK to say so."


    He didn''t mention leaving.


    Because Zhang Xiu is determined to punish people like gupu pagoda, it is impossible to leave.


    TimidI thought that Zhang Xiu had agreed to leave. He was relieved and said, "gupu TA came to my house to marry my only daughter on the one hand, and to seize property on the other. So my request is that I am willing to give my property to the young master. I only ask the young master to leave with my daughter. When we get to Lanshi, please settle my daughter. So, my wish is enough


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "you are not afraid to give me your daughter and family property, but they are all sent to the tiger''s mouth?"


    TimidI said: "you are not a bad person. What''s more, no matter how bad it is, it''s better to marry Gupta. This Gupta is a very despicable man. Since he took office, he has married more than ten women by means of extortion. It''s better to say that it''s not to say that it''s to marry back than to take it back. So, I can only make a bet. "


    At this point, Timmy was coughing again, and the whole person was very uncomfortable.


    He didn''t want his daughter taken away by Gupta.


    I''d rather let Zhang Xiu take it away.


    At least what he saw, Zhang Xiu was a man of conscience.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t expect that timidI could see things through. Although this man is down now, after all, he was born into a noble family. He has a certain insight and can carry the situation clearly.


    Zhang Xiu shook her sleeve robe and said with a smile, "timidI, I''m afraid you''re going to be disappointed."


    "Ah


    TimidI said, "don''t you want to?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s not that I don''t want to, it''s because I won''t agree to your request, and I won''t leave. Don''t worry, gupu tower can''t be arrogant. Even if abagon comes, he can''t be arrogant. "


    This moment''s Zhang Xiu, the breath reveals.


    A dignified bearing, from the body of Zhang Xiu revealed. When he was friendly, he didn''t see any clue. But all of a sudden, Zhang Xiu''s face was cold. In such a situation, even timidI felt terrible. Even in the face of Zhang Xiu, he felt depressed from the bottom of his heart.


    The people in front of us are extraordinary.


    This is not an ordinary person.


    TimidI was also a wise man. He suddenly said, "young master, you must not be a businessman of Daqin. If not, you would not be so calm. What''s more, the young master has a kind of extraordinary bearing. I noticed it when I was in the yard earlier, but it was not obvious. Just now, I found out again. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "well, guess who I am?"There is no clue.


    But Timmy''s heart at this time settled down.


    Because timidI judged that Zhang Xiu was not afraid of Gupta and abagon, his family and daughter were safe. At this time, timidI''s heart was stable, no longer panic, no sense of embarrassment.


    TimidI said: "I''ve heard about the main officials in today''s Lancaster city. However, they are not from Daqin. The young master said that he came from Daqin, but there was only one Lanshi city official who had not been arranged. Is it true that the young master of LAN''s city is about to take office? "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "unfortunately, you guessed wrong."


    TimidI shook his head and said, "well, I can''t guess the identity of the young master. After all, there are too many officials and generals in Daqin. If you bring one out, it will be enough to crush Abagong. "


    After a pause, Timothy got up, went into the hall, folded his hands again.


    This time, it''s still a bow to the end.


    He bowed 90 degrees and said, "no matter what your status is or whether you are willing to say it or not, timidI will never forget your kindness to me."


    Zhang Xiu accepted the salute of timidI.


    He is worthy of the ceremony.


    After his salute, timidI returned to his seat and said, "although you have a noble status, this is not a city of LANs or a military camp. This area, though in the village. But the people in the village are unarmed. Once you get angry with gupu tower, if gupu tower wants to kill people, I''m afraid you will be in danger. "


    He began to analyze the situation.


    In fact, this is also a problem.


    If there is not enough strength, even if Zhang Xiu''s status is noble, Gu Pu TA will kill people hard and directly, and there is no evidence of any crime. No one can find any problem.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "you can rest assured that I am everything."


    He didn''t want to talk to Timmy, so he got up and said, "let''s go. There are many villagers outside. They have been waiting for a long time with wine."


    He went straight out.


    TimidI looks at Zhang Xiu''s back and suddenly has an idea in his heart. It would be a good choice for such a handsome man if his daughter could marry the son of Daqin.


    But that''s just thinking.


    It is not operational.


    The other party is not an ordinary person, but a noble person of Daqin.


    He can''t reach the top.

 Chapter 1346

    Zhang Xiu went out of the room and came to the yard. At this time, all the villagers asked about the local conditions and customs in Daqin and the living conditions of the people in Daqin.


    Zhang Xiu answered one by one.


    Especially when it comes to the life of the people in the Qin Dynasty, Zhang Xiu describes everything in detail.


    The people of Daqin can eat well and wear warm clothes.


    The common people of the Qin Dynasty can read and study.


    The people of Daqin have no worries about food and clothing.


    Zhang Xiu explained all the things that the common people of the Qin Dynasty owned. The people in Mazi village all around them were intoxicated with it, and their faces were full of disbelief.


    TimidI suddenly said, "young master, can the people of Daqin really study and become officials?"


    "Of course!"


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said, "in the territory of Daqin, there are academies to recruit school-age children to study. When it was time to take part in the imperial examination, these scholars took part in the imperial examination and went up one by one, eventually becoming officials. For ordinary people in poor families, this is their only chance to get ahead. "


    TimidI praised and said, "what you said is true. Reading is really the only chance for poor people."


    Ordinary people want to get ahead.


    There is no other way.


    Only through reading can we succeed. As for other ways, it''s one in ten thousand or even one in one hundred thousand. It''s too small.


    The rest of the villagers kept talking.


    At this time, the night is getting darker.


    The lanterns in the yard were lit, so the darkness was dispelled, but it didn''t feel dark. But looking out, the darkness around us shows that it''s getting late.


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "fellow villagers, it''s so late. Are you still staying here and not going home?"


    Previously, the old man of Zhang Xiu''s lodging house said, "young master, we are here. At least we can have a strong momentum. Although it can''t help, it''s still a little popular. "


    "Yes, I have to help you."


    "Young master is a good man. We all stay here. If it''s really gupu tower, we can stop it."


    "We''ll stay with you."


    One by one, the villagers of Mazi village opened their mouths. There was indignation on their faces. They were all angry at gupu pagoda. In the good Mazi village, everything is harmonious, but gupu pagoda is the top official.


    It makes the whole Mazi village uneasy.


    It''s disgusting!


    Hearing this, Zhang Xiu had a smile on her face.


    The people are still simple.


    Of course, these people may also have their own careful thinking, but their own careful thinking is not enough.


    Timmy was at ease at this time. Because knowing Zhang Xiu''s identity is not a businessman, and knowing that Zhang Xiu will definitely solve the current problems, timidI is also happy.


    TimidI said, "well, I have a lot of good wine in my cellar. Housekeeper, go and bring out all my 30-year-old wines and some cooked meat


    "Yes


    The housekeeper got the arrangement and went to carry it out immediately.


    Not long after, a small number of family members moved wine and meat.


    The people in the village have their share.


    At this time, the young, the old and the weak in the village all looked happy. One by one, they were drinking wine and eating meat, and their faces were full of joy.


    Time goes by little.


    While everyone was drinking, suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the yard: "Timmy, I''m here again today. Revenge doesn''t stay overnight. It angers me. Guptah, I don''t want to deal with you. "


    With the sound, a group of Hula people rushed in.


    Gupu pagoda is also on the list.


    This time, the people guptah brought were not one or two, but a group of people, more than 60 private soldiers, all of them were his gathering of rascals, and a group of people were still carrying weapons. Even if the weapon is not a sword, but just some iron bars, it will be extremely painful for more than 60 people to hit people with iron bars.


    After entering gupu pagoda, he also saw Zhang Xiu, and suddenly laughed and said, "you can really enjoy it, son of Daqin! I still have leisure to drink and eat meat. You think you can enjoy the treatment of a hero after being a hero. I tell you, you can pull it down. This time, I''ll turn you into a bear. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed, drank a mouthful of wine, ate a piece of meat, and then said in a deep voice: "is it a hero or a bear, I will know in a moment. Now that you''re here, it''s in vain. You''re here to die. "


    Gupta said, "I''m afraid I should say that."


    After a pause, Gu Pu TA, with both hands on his back, looked up at Zhang Xiu, and said in a deep voice: "boy, now you will kneel down and kowtow to apologize to Gu Pu TA. Kowtow and make mistakes. Maybe guptar is happy. I will spare you today. If you are angry with guptar, you must die in Mazi village today. "Zhang Xiu said, "I''m from Qin Dynasty. How dare you kill me?"


    Gupta said, "it''s not that I haven''t killed anyone. What''s so strange about killing people. Of course, I didn''t kill Qin people. But this wild mountain, this Mazi village, is far away from LAN''s city. Kill you here, throw your bodies in the wilderness. In this way, God does not know, no one knows


    Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry. He can see that gupu pagoda doesn''t mean to do it immediately. It''s a joke to play with him, so Zhang Xiu says with a smile: "this is Mazi village, especially in Mazi village, where there are countless people. You killed me. Countless people have seen it. You can''t get rid of it. "


    "Who dares to say?"


    Guptah looked around, his eyes were extremely sharp, fierce and rebellious, and said: "they are all under my jurisdiction. I heard my uncle abagon once say that the county magistrate is better to be in charge now, but I am in charge of them. If these people dare to complain, they will all die before I die. For you alone, they all give their lives. Who wants to


    Gupta continued: "this man is selfish. Maybe now they are willing to take you in and negotiate with you. But when it comes to interests, they dare not take care of you. "


    Brush!


    People in Mazi village were worried.


    They are worried about Zhang Xiu''s situation.


    TimidI''s heart, in fact, also has some worries, but he knows that Zhang Xiu is ready, so even if he is worried, he doesn''t show it, and still sits on one side honestly.


    Zhang Xiu stood up from the seat and said, "gupu pagoda, even if you come with 50 or 60 people. But these people are a mob. You can''t count on them to take me. I''ve been a businessman all over the world. If I don''t have one or two bodyguards around me, how dare I walk around. "


    "Self righteous!"


    Gupta shook his sleeve robe and said with a smile: "it seems that you are going to break your wrist with me, and you still want to fight against me. Just two people around you. One of the old men, in particular, looked like he was dying. It''s impossible for you people to stop my brother. "


    Zhang Xiu took out the sword at his waist, pestled it directly on the ground and said, "well, let''s see the truth."


    "To die!"


    Gupta looked disdainful and said, "give it to me and kill these three people."


    "Yes


    A group of people have to make it, and some people have taken the lead to rush up.

 Chapter 1347

    Zhang Xiu looks at a group of people who are coming to kill, with a cold and fierce look on the corner of her mouth.


    A bunch of rascals.


    It''s all the people who are in trouble.


    Under normal circumstances, there are no soldiers under a small official like Gupta. However, people like Gupta still have to maintain order and convince all parties, so they all support thugs, that is, these rascals.


    For these people, Zhang Xiu does not intend to stay.


    Zhang Xiu said: "Wang Yue, Shi a, do your best, and don''t be merciful. These people are everywhere. They should be killed. "


    Zhang Xiu at this moment is determined to kill.


    His orders, in Gupta''s view, are a joke, but timidI is a man of vision. At the sight of Zhang Xiu''s expression, especially Zhang Xiu''s calmness and killing, he was praised by timidI.


    It''s not easy!


    The present young master of Qin is not simple!


    However, Timmy did not know the identity of Zhang Xiu.


    Said when late, then fast, already had the skin to carry the iron bar, rushed to the body of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu leans on the long sword and doesn''t move. When the iron rod in the story is swung and smashed, she only hears a clang sound, but Wang Yue pulls out the sword at the right time.


    When the Epee comes out of its sheath, its light is cold and sharp.


    Under the red light of the fire in the yard, the light on the sword was flowing, as if it was cold.


    The sword is as fast as lightning.


    "Puchi!"


    With the Epee drawn out, he spurted blood from his mouth and fell to the ground with his head up. The iron bar that he swung in his hand to fall also fell to the ground.


    With one move, Wang Yue killed the shrew.


    Zhang Xiu light said: "Wang Yue, although kill, do not have to protect me."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue was ordered to fight with his epee.


    At the same time, Shi''a also carried an Epee, followed Wang Yue and rushed forward quickly. One left and one right, the sword light flickered, the blood splashed, and the skin was chopped. In particular, Shi A''s and Wang Yue''s swords are all heavy swords. They can be either killed or injured with one sword.


    Even if you don''t die, you have to be seriously injured.


    Most people are killed by a sword, and even have no chance to resist.


    After all, it''s a bunch of rascals.


    On the other hand, Wang Yue and Shi a are really great masters. In particular, although Wang Yue is old, in fact, he has been cultivating his morality and mind these years, especially taking a rest in his family boxing. His maintenance is excellent.


    Even if we use force, we can burst out a very strong force at a time. What''s more, these scamps in front of him are a mob. He doesn''t need to use 30% of his strength. A little strength, combined with his attainments in fencing, is enough to be invincible.


    For a time, countless casualties.


    The curtain fell in timidI''s eyes, and he was surprised.


    TimidI, after all, was aristocratic and knowledgeable.


    Wang Yue and Shi a are far sighted, and their fighting power is even more impressive. Because the strength of these two men has far exceeded that of ordinary people, and even the valiant generals in the army. They are not the martial arts that ordinary people can possess.


    From this point of view, Zhang Xiu''s identity is even more extraordinary.


    TimidI speculated in his heart, thought about it, and still didn''t have any clue.


    The faces of the people who are far away from each other are also extremely shocked. In particular, many people have never seen a bloody scene. Suddenly, when they see such a scene behind the scenes, many people can''t bear it, so they just retch or vomit.


    People were shocked.


    But inside these people, they feel happy.


    A group of people in gupu tower, extortion, unscrupulous, for disaster in the village. Now these people, finally hit the iron and stone, hit the head and blood, it''s very exciting.


    People can''t bear the scene of bloody killing, but they are excited. This scene is really comfortable.


    But for Gupta, he frowned.


    In a short period of time, more than ten of his subordinates were killed, and the rest more than 40 people were obviously afraid. After all, they are shreds who have never fought in the battlefield. Even if it''s fighting, they are now slaughtered with passion. They are scared and worried about being killed.


    The color of gupu pagoda is also iron green.


    He turned his eyes and yelled, "go on, keep killing me. Who killed them today, I will reward him with one hundred taels of gold and a house. "


    His words, a group of naughty, as if hit the chicken blood.


    These rascals are all brave and fierce.


    One by one they are so poor.


    Nowadays, gupu pagoda has to give rich rewards and enough benefits, so they are willing to fight one by one. Originally they were licking blood on the edge of the knife, but now they are in such a situation, which is just a little more dangerous.


    "Kill, kill!"


    In the crowd, there was a splash shouting.One by one, carrying iron bars, risking their lives, they continued to rush forward.


    Gupta''s eyes are still turning, looking at the situation on the battlefield. When he saw clearly that Zhang Xiu had not done anything, and that there was no one around him, and his subordinates could rush up, he ordered: "a group of bastards, stupid people, don''t you see that Qin boy''s side, no one? What are you doing around those two thugs? Go up and take that boy for me. "


    As soon as these words came out, the situation of a group of people beating Wang Yue and Shi a changed immediately. Immediately there were more than ten people, carrying iron bars, directly killed Zhang Xiu.


    "Bang!"


    All of a sudden, a clear sound like the sound of a dragon.


    Zhang Xiu''s sword is lifted and the blade comes out of the sheath.


    In the light of the fire, his sword blade showed cold light, and was filled with morihan''s killing intention.


    Zhang Xiu stamped her feet, not retreating but advancing. He directly rushed to the front of the scamper, swung his sword and cut it off with one sword. The power of this chopping is very strong, and the blade is cold. When a sword is cut off, the shrew can only hold up the iron bar to resist.


    "Chaka!"


    A sword fell and the iron bar broke.


    The iron bar was cut off directly.


    Zhang Xiu''s Sabre is a sword that cuts iron like mud, with sharp blade. After a sword cut off the iron bar, the blade continued to fall. With a pee, it was chopped on the shrew''s neck.


    "Poof!"


    Blood splashed, half of the neck was cut off, the head was crooked, there was endless blood, just like a spring, directly splashed out. This is a splash, it is a plop, fell to the ground.


    This moment of Zhang Xiu, sofa decisive.


    He was murderous.


    It''s like killing a God.


    "Hiss!"


    TimidI in the back to see, especially other found Zhang Xiu murder, no hesitation. The scene of killing people is like cutting melons and vegetables, like slaughtering chickens and ducks.


    It''s so cold.


    Timmy''s heart, thought of a possibility.


    He thinks Zhang Xiu is a soldier.


    Because only the people in the army have such intention to kill.


    TimidI was surprised, but in fact, he was happy. Because only Zhang Xiu''s status is noble, can he not be dealt with by the people behind gupu pagoda and be safe.


    After Zhang Xiu killed a shrew, he carried on with his sword. At this moment, Zhang Xiu wields a sword to chop, or to lift a sword to cut horizontally. If a sword is wielded, one of the shreds must be killed.


    More than ten shreds who killed Zhang Xiu were killed in a flash.


    There is no blood on Zhang Xiu.


    This kind of Zhang Xiu is like killing gods, especially on the other side, Wang Yue and Shi a join hands, and the two masters and disciples rush forward quickly. No one can stop them. Even more than 30 people have died in the hands of Wang Yue and Shi a.


    Of the more than 60 people brought by gupu pagoda, only a dozen were left in a flash. And these more than ten people, one by one, were frightened, their bodies trembled slightly, and they kept saying goodbye.


    They''re all scared of being killed.


    Guptah gulped down a mouthful of saliva. His cheek puffed. He turned and wanted to run out. But as soon as he ran, Zhang Xiu rushed up. Originally, the skin around gupu pagoda could stop Zhang Xiu from delaying gupu pagoda. However, Zhang Xiu''s killing made these people scared, and no one protected gupu pagoda at all.


    "Bang!"


    Zhang Xiu kicks on the bottom of gupu tower.


    The center of gravity of gupu pagoda was unstable. After two steps forward, gupu pagoda''s fat and strong body fell to the ground in a dog''s dung posture.


    The whole person is Shushu shudder.


    He was afraid of being killed by Zhang Xiu.

 Chapter 1348

    Gupu tower fell to the ground, the body is extremely painful, very uncomfortable.


    Even so, gupu tower did not dare to make a sound. He didn''t have time to escape, so he immediately knelt on the ground, knocked his head on the ground and said in a loud voice, "young master, I''m wrong. I know I''m wrong. Please spare my life."


    "Plop!"


    "Plop!"


    One after another, the sound of kneeling came out, and the splashes brought by the ancient pagodas kept kneeling on the ground.


    Everyone was counselled.


    No one even dares to run away.


    Because I''m afraid of being killed.


    Gupta''s heart, there is endless resentment, there is endless anger, but in front of the killing scene, he was scared. Even if Gupta wants revenge, he has to plead for mercy now.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu didn''t answer immediately, gupu pagoda said again, "young master, I''m just a cheap man. I don''t need to clean up. Please forgive me, my Lord. I will never do it again. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a sneer, "do you know how to be afraid?"


    "I''m afraid, I''m afraid!"


    Gupta answered quickly.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Especially in this courtyard, there are corpses and pools of blood gathering, which makes the yard full of disgusting smell of blood. Gupta is worried about following these people''s footsteps.


    He wants to be alive.


    Moreover, gupu tower always remembers his uncle''s instruction, leaving the Castle Peak with no worries about firewood. As long as people live, there is still a chance. So even if he does now, it doesn''t matter.


    When he is relieved, he has plenty of opportunities for revenge. At that time, he took revenge and killed Zhang Xiu. Then the resentment that he had been bullied would dissipate.


    Gupta continued: "young master, I have eyes and don''t know Taishan. I should die. If you are a big adult, just treat me as a fart and let me go


    Zhang xiuleng: "you''re bringing people with you. You''re going to kill me. You said, "can I let you go easily?"


    "This, this..."


    Guptana spoke with a look of horror on his face.


    He was really scared.


    Because the scene of Zhang Xiu''s killing gave him too much shock. Especially now, there is no one around him, and it is impossible to want revenge, only to beg for mercy. Save your life before you think about other things.


    Zhang Xiu went to the gupu pagoda kneeling on the ground and said in a deep voice: "although you can avoid death, you can''t escape a living sin. I am not an official and cannot punish you with the law. But I can''t spare you. "


    This is Zhang Xiu deliberately digging a hole for gupu tower.


    Since we know that behind Gupta, there is a more powerful uncle abagon.


    Zhang Xiu plans to dig deep.


    Dig out the details of each other little by little, and dig out the strength of each other. Zhang Xiu doesn''t intend to stay for those who are harming the common people, because if these people live, they will harm the common people and make the reputation of Daqin lose.


    "You, you, you don''t!"


    Gupta said in a loud voice: "young master, I have money. I have a lot of money. I''m willing to pay for it. Don''t deal with me. As long as you spare me, whether it''s money, treasure or woman, I can satisfy you. "


    Zhang Xiu added: "I am a businessman. I have money and women. You say, "do I lack these?"


    At this time, he said that he was a businessman.


    It was done on purpose.


    When gupu tower heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he thought about it in his heart. The other side repeatedly said, then, it must be businessmen, not officials of the Qin Dynasty. Under such a premise, Gupta''s mind is to avoid the current danger, and then seek revenge.


    If he does not retaliate, he will never stop.


    Gupta was panicked, and he said again, "young master, please forgive me. I am willing to satisfy you with what you want and what you want. I tell you, my uncle is Abagong, a big businessman in Lanshi city. He is about to meet his Majesty the emperor of Qin. If you spare me, my uncle will appreciate it


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes are cold and sharp.


    To stimulate each other, to make gupu pagoda retaliate again, and even to clean up gupu pagoda, we need certain means.


    So Zhang Xiu kicked it out again.


    "Pa!"


    Gupta got a kick in the back and was kicked to the ground.


    Zhang Xiu stepped forward again, stepped on the right arm of gupu pagoda, and said: "your arm, I don''t know how many people have been hurt. Today, I''m acting on behalf of heaven and taking your arm


    He raised his foot and stepped on it.


    "Chaka!"


    One foot fell, gupu tower''s arm bone was broken, and the red blood immediately overflowed from the wound.


    The shrill scream came from the mouth of the ancient pagoda.


    At this moment, gupu pagoda looks ferocious.Pain!


    Endless pain, from the arm.


    His body began to shudder.


    As if the pain came from the bone marrow, which made him unbearable.


    Zhang Xiu''s fierce expression was introduced into the eyes of the people around her. Even if Zhang Xiu is acting for heaven, they are still cold and can''t help shivering. When Zhang Xiu is dealing with people, it''s really frightening.


    "Give me a break, give me a break!"


    Gupta''s mouth, speak out again.


    When Gupta continued to speak, his pain was still spreading, but this pain, compared with just now, was slightly recovered, not as painful as just now.


    Zhang Xiu said: "how can I forgive you easily? It''s just a waste of your arm. You walk so many ways every day, you harm the people everywhere, and you have to waste your leg again. "


    With that, Zhang Xiu stepped down again.


    "Chaka!"


    The crunchy sound came out, and the left leg bone of gupu tower was broken.


    For a while, the blood flowed.


    Gupta''s waist was straight, his body trembling and twitching. He felt extremely uncomfortable, extremely painful, just felt as if he had fallen into the infernal hell, suffering unspeakable pain.


    This is the biggest pain Gupta has suffered in his life.


    He was biting his teeth and his eyes were full of killing.


    He is going to kill Zhang Xiu.


    If he doesn''t kill Zhang Xiu, he will never stop.


    But gupu tower knew that now, he had to endure, because once he angered Zhang Xiu, he would die now. So Gupta took a deep breath, tried to suppress his pain, and slowly said, "I''m wrong. Please forgive me."


    Zhang Xiu looked at the gupu pagoda lying on the ground like a dead dog. She kicked the gupu pagoda on its body again and kicked the gupu pagoda far away. She said, "go away, don''t disturb my rest."


    Bang!


    Gupu tower''s body, flying out and landing.


    It''s just that his arms and thighs are bleeding. After all, just now Zhang Xiu''s feet went down, his arm bones and leg bones have been broken, and the whole person has been in pain.


    "Go, let''s go!"


    Gupta clenched his teeth and gave a loud order.


    He around a group of naughty, unscrupulous began to leave. Gupu tower can''t go, can only be carried away, soon alive a group of shreds, all disappeared clean, leaving a body on the ground.


    These 40 odd people are all killed.


    Seeing this scene, timidI felt puzzled and worried, and said, "young master, guptah is not a good stubble! Now let him go, and then he will come back for revenge. "


    The rest of the people also agreed.


    There was worry on every face.


    They are also worried that they will be retaliated. After all, they are also the people nearby and are easily involved.


    Zhang Xiu smile, said: "is worried that he will revenge, so, I just let him leave.". Gupta will not give up under such heavy damage and pain. Next, Gupta will come again. In order to completely solve your danger, I asked him to leave and let him move the rescuers. "


    Everyone was relieved.


    TimidI looks at Zhang Xiu and is even more surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu digs a hole for gupu tower. At this moment, in timidI''s heart, there was a moment of silence for Gupta. If you meet someone who can''t be offended, you will be offended by your own death. You don''t know how to die in the end.

 Chapter 1349

    The night was deep.


    The city of Lange at night is quiet.


    The lights are still on in the abbagon residence, because in today''s residence, there are still singing and dancing. There are singers dancing, and the sound of silk and bamboo reverberates in the ear for a long time.


    Abagon sat upright on the throne, pushing cups and cups with the crowd, which was very lively.


    The atmosphere was very warm.


    The people that abagon entertained were all famous people in LAN''s city. They all had some identities. These people are also those who have received the invitation and are about to participate in the discussion of state affairs.


    Abagon invited all these people.


    On the one hand, it''s about connecting.


    On the other hand, it is to reach a consensus with the public that Jiang Yiyan should be elected as the deputy leader of LAN''s city.


    With abagon''s money offensive and abagon''s seduction of the singer, all the celebrities of the city agreed and were willing to recommend Jiang Yiyan as the deputy leader of the city.


    What''s more, there is a person who is willing to help them speak, and these people are also willing. So one''s heart, instinct is willing, led by abagon, that is to push the boat down the river.


    While chatting with the public in abagon, he talked about the future planning for the city of Lancaster.


    Talking about the matter of seeking benefits for all.


    A school of jubilation.


    "Master, it''s not a good thing!"


    At this moment, a voice of panic came from outside the hall.


    But the housekeeper rushed in.


    Seeing this, abagon immediately frowned. In front of so many people, the housekeeper of his family was so panicked that he lost his face. So abagon immediately yelled, "what''s the panic? It''s hard for heaven to fall down."


    The housekeeper said in a high voice: "master, something really happened. Young master guptah was beaten, and someone broke his arm and thigh. Now young master guptah, being carried back, is at the gate of his residence. He is already a bloody man, and looks miserable. "


    Boom!!


    In abagon''s head, it exploded.


    At that moment, there was a blank in abagon''s whole brain. When he came back, the look in his eyes was more fierce than ever, and he was even more murderous.


    Abagon had no children under his knees, especially in earlier years, and was injured. In this life, you can''t have children, so you are very precious to the only elder brother''s son.


    For gupu pagoda, abagon is very fond of it.


    In particular, guptah''s father had already died, and abagon raised guptah as his son.


    He rubbed and stood up, looked around at the people in the hall and said, "gentlemen, my nephew has encountered something. Now things are urgent and need to be dealt with by me, so I can''t have a drink with you today. I''m really sorry, but I hope Haihan will come back. "


    This is seeing off.


    Everyone knows about abagon and understands his mentality.


    One by one, they stood up and left.


    In the twinkling of an eye, all the people in the hall left.


    Abagon took the housekeeper and hurried to the gate of the mansion. He came to the gate of the house and saw gupu pagoda on the back of Pippi. Today''s gupu pagoda, a thigh full of blood, a arm full of blood, even under the infiltration of blood, gupu pagoda body is full of blood.


    The whole person was extremely embarrassed, especially when he came back all the way, he was not only bleeding, but also in severe pain, which made the whole person of guptah wilt.


    "What''s the matter, say, what''s the matter?"


    Abagon almost screamed as hard as he could.


    His eyes were full of killing intention, already full of anger.


    Following gupu TA''s shrewdness, he did not dare to hide it. He immediately said, "master abagon, this is what happened. When we went to Mazi village, we met..."


    Poupi gave the details of the time.


    Guptah added: "uncle, I''ve been careful. This is a businessman from Daqin who wants to do business in Lanshi city. It''s just that he and his guards are very powerful. They killed more than 40 people of me, and we are the only ones left. "


    His voice is very low.


    There was still pain on his face.


    Gupta continued: "uncle, you have to avenge me. This businessman of Daqin is really hateful. It''s really hateful for him to kill people just because he has some martial arts skills. If the merchants of Daqin hadn''t stopped me, I would have annexed the timidI family now. My leg and arm were trampled off by the merchants of Daqin. Please ask my uncle to avenge me


    "Are you sure it''s a businessman?" abagon asked


    When it comes to the people of Daqin, Abagong''s heart is more cautious, comparing the other side is not the people of LAN''s city.


    "Sure!"


    Gupta answered immediately.


    Abagon said, "how did you come back? The other side is so powerful. It is reasonable to say that more than 40 people have died. It''s impossible to come back. "Gupta said, "the businessman of Daqin knows that I am an official and dare not kill me. So, he just stepped on my arm and thigh. Uncle, hurry up. The other party is a businessman. If he leaves tonight, it will be very difficult for him to find the other party again. "


    After hearing the speech, Abagong turned his mind and thought about the current strategy to break the situation.


    It''s not difficult to send people there.


    The problem is, abagon has to think about it.


    See if there''s a problem.


    Abagon thought about it carefully, and then said, "this matter should be dealt with by nigti first. He''s your superior. He''s in charge of all the villages and towns north and east of blue city. We''ll see him at once and ask him to send troops. "


    Gupta said, "uncle, it can''t be done!"


    Abagong said, "why?"


    Gupta said, "the child knows about nigti. His troops are no more than 100. You should know that the sixty sons under the command of the child are extremely fierce, far more fierce than the people of nigti. But my men, in front of the businessman of the Qin Dynasty, were like chopping melons and cutting vegetables, and soon they were defeated. If nigti is allowed to lead the soldiers, he will also be killed. "


    Abagon said, "what do you mean?"


    Gupta said in a deep voice, "I mean, you have to let Lord fisoni do it. This is Mr. fisoni, but you support it. And now there are Daqin merchants who are murdering, and he will certainly be willing to let fisoni do it. "


    Abagon frowned.


    Fisoni is the person in charge of the West City in Lancaster City, which is in charge of such a large area of the west city. However, his power is far greater than that of the people in charge of villages and towns outside.


    Abagon thought for a moment and said, "well, I''ll show my face and kindness and ask fisoni to do it."


    Gupta said, "thank you, uncle."


    Abagon said, "I''m going to invite someone. You''ll have a rest at home."


    "No, no!"


    Gupta shook his head and said: "uncle, my injury is simply bandaged. I just need to set the bone and bandage it again. It''s OK. I''m going to Mazi village. I''m going to watch the boy die. You go to Mr. fisoni''s house to invite someone. I''ll take my family and wait for you at the west gate, and then I''ll go with you. "


    "All right!"


    Abagon saw that guptah''s face was full of anger. After thinking about it, he didn''t stop him.


    After all, gupu pagoda is miserable.


    This time, gupu pagoda could not go out for three or five months at least. Now, when it comes to dealing with the merchants of the Qin Dynasty, Abagong doesn''t want people to have doubts in gupita''s heart.


    "Thank you uncle, thank you uncle!"


    Gupu tower is happy.


    Immediately, the attendant carried gupu tower into the house for treatment, while abagon changed his clothes and left the house in a hurry. He went to fisoni''s house overnight to see him.


    As Gupta said, the other party is a businessman. The whereabouts of the businessman are uncertain. If he leaves, he is looking for a needle in a haystack. It will be very difficult to find someone again. He has to move all night.


    It''s not easy to diagnose and treat Gupta''s injury.


    It took a lot of effort for your doctor to help gupu pagoda fix the injury. Although Gupta''s body is still very painful, it is not as painful as before, which is acceptable.


    He set out with his private soldiers. This time, the number of private soldiers mobilized by gupu pagoda reached 300. Among them, another private soldier carried a stretcher, put gupu pagoda on it and quickly went to the west city.


    The party arrived at the west gate.


    At this time, the surrounding dark, a quiet.


    Gupu pagoda waited less than a quarter of an hour, and there was a rush of footsteps on the official road in the city. But abagon and fisoni came, and behind them were more than 200 officers and soldiers.

 Chapter 1350

    Fisoni took people to the city gate and saw gupu tower lying on the stretcher. He looked at guptah on the stretcher, snorted, looked at abagon and said, "abagon, I know what your nephew has done in this place. This time, I can be sure that it was his provocation first, not the killing of Daqin merchants you mentioned. "


    "You need to restrain your nephew."


    "Otherwise, sooner or later, he will make trouble for you. At that time, even as a big businessman, you can''t suppress it."


    "This time, I''ll still help you."


    "Because the other party is only a businessman of Daqin, and there is a rumor that recently Daqin people are strictly forbidden to bully our Kushan people. This businessman of Daqin, I can use this reason to kill him. "


    Fisoni said: "but after this incident, there will be a clear relationship between you and me. I don''t owe you any more. In the future, if you want to do something with me, it will not be so easy. "


    Abagon said with a smile, "that''s what you should do!"


    After a pause, abagon continued: "even this time, Lord fisoni helped me, and I will repay you when it''s done. I understand the truth of dealing with people. "


    "Let''s go!"


    Fisoni said.


    They went straight out of the city to Mazi village.


    It''s dark at night now.


    Even if there is still a crescent moon in the sky, but such a crescent moon is not enough to provide enough brightness, so the accompanying people set torches to disperse the darkness and move forward quickly.


    They were on their way, very fast.


    Gupta was lying on a stretcher. Because of the speed of driving, even lying on it was quite bumpy. Such bumps made his wound ache faintly, but he knew that shouting pain would definitely affect the speed of driving, so Gupta gritted his teeth and endured the pain from beginning to end.


    Because he wanted revenge.


    He wants the boy of Daqin to die.


    For revenge, even if it''s physical pain, it''s worth it. Because of their fast speed, they finally came to Mazi village after early morning.


    The Party headed by amigon went straight up to the mansion.


    After all, there are so many villages.


    When hundreds of people suddenly appear in the village, the whole village will know, especially the constant barking of dogs. Even if timidI''s house is near the innermost part of the village, the innermost part can know what''s going on outside.


    Zhang Xiu also found the news.


    He knew that more people would come this time, so he nodded to Wang Yue.


    By this time, it was very late.


    But Timmy and his family have not yet rested. Even the people in the village did not leave. All the people are staying to cheer for Zhang Xiu.


    With the sound of footsteps, shortly after, abagon, fisoni and Gupta entered the courtyard.


    Fortunately, Timmy''s yard is big enough.


    Even hundreds of people can hold it.


    Abagong snorted and said, "who is the merchant of Daqin, stand up for me."


    When talking, his eyes have fallen on Zhang Xiu. After all, it''s easy to distinguish the black hair and yellow skin of the merchants in Daqin. Especially in this courtyard, only Zhang Xiu''s three people are black hair and yellow skin, which can be seen at a glance.


    Fisoni took a look at abagon and said, "abagon, let me handle the business here."


    He sold it one step at a time, and his eyes fell on Zhang Xiu. He said in a deep voice: "I''m fisoni, who is in charge of the west city of Lanshi city. You can call me fisoni. As a member of the Qin Dynasty, as soon as you enter the territory of LAN''s city, you bully the people of LAN''s city with the identity of the Qin people. This matter was ordered to be severely punished by the above authorities. Once the Qin people oppressed the people in LAN''s city, they should be punished severely. "


    Zhang Xiu suddenly laughed.


    This fisoni is really interesting. As soon as he came up, he was convicted.


    Not at all.


    Such a person is the official in charge of the west city of LAN''s city. Zhang Xiu is quite disappointed. Originally, the people of LAN''s city were in charge of LAN''s city, but the government and businessmen colluded with each other.


    "What are you laughing at?" he said


    Zhang xiudao said: "what I laugh at is that the officials in charge of a region are so reckless of the facts. Have you inquired about the local people? Have you ever asked about the client? Do you know what happened? "


    "As soon as you get into the yard, convict me."


    "Say directly that I oppress the Kushites."


    "Put on a big hat and say that I''m bullying the Kushites in Lanshi city."


    "It''s so indiscriminate!"


    Zhang Xiu tone is very cold, a pair of angry appearance, said: "you know, you are the Kushan people of the city of LAN. Even people like you don''t contact them or protect your own people. You are a kusana. "


    When fisoni heard this, he became angry.The other side is just a businessman.


    A businessman, who dares to criticize him like this, is really looking for death.


    Fisoni said in a deep voice: "boy, you are so ignorant. It seems that you should die in my hands today. Today, I''ll kill you first and then report to the Lord of Kunda. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said with regret: "a businessman has bought a parent official like you. You are so disappointing. It''s just that you''re going to kill me, but I''m going to kill you too! Because of the existence of officials like you, that''s what harms the people. "


    "To die!"


    Fisoni gave a roar.


    "Kill me!"


    Fisoni did not use abagon or Gupta to incite him at all. He had already ordered.


    As an official on one side, he has great power. All the people in front of him are flattering. Even abagon, though he is quite famous, has to correct himself when he meets fisoni.


    The person in front of him was so unscrupulous that he was looking for death.


    Soldiers brought by abagon, kill them directly.


    A steel knife flashed out, flashing cold light in the fire light of the residence.


    Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiu didn''t worry. He saw Wang Yue take out a loud arrow from his sleeve. He only heard the sound of whew. The loud arrow broke through the air. Even when he reached the high altitude, the loud arrow exploded.


    Under the night, the fireworks produced by the arrow are very bright.


    You can see it far around.


    This scene fell into fisoni''s eyes, and he suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. Because the scene in front of him was beyond his expectation. According to the normal situation, there are only three people on the other side. He has brought hundreds of people. It is easy to capture or even kill the other side alive. But now, the other side releases the arrow to break through the air, obviously there are still people.


    Abagong also saw the scene of Wang Yuefang calling for help. He was also quite nervous and exclaimed, "kill, kill the merchant of Daqin. You can''t let his people come, or there will be endless trouble. "


    "Kill


    Gupu tower is also shouting.


    Fisoni also gave a loud order, ordering the soldiers to rush forward quickly.


    One by one, the soldiers rushed forward, but Wang Yue and Shi a stood in the way of Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu also at this moment, pulled out the waist of the sword, sword sheath, he took the lead to kill the sword.


    "Defense is not my style, kill!"


    Zhang Xiu gave a loud order.


    Wang Yue and Shi a rush forward together as Zhang Xiu carries her sword.


    The three men formed a triangle formation, led by Zhang Xiu. When they met the soldiers killed, the light of the sword flickered. They only heard the sound of Dangdang. A moment later, the cold light flickered, and a corpse fell to the ground.


    One by one, soldiers were killed.


    Seeing this, fisoni exclaimed: "dare to attack the government soldiers, boy, you are dead. Kill me, kill this Liao. This man is going to attack the officials of blue city. Kill them for me


    He''s already giving orders out loud.


    Under the command of the soldiers, constantly pouring up, has surrounded Zhang Xiu three people.

 Chapter 1351

    The killing in the dark continues.


    A circle of people surrounded Zhang Xiu and his party thoroughly. One by one, the soldiers keep rushing forward, intending to kill Zhang Xiu, but under the joint killing of Zhang Xiu, the soldiers around are constantly killed.


    A shower of blood, constantly splashing.


    A corpse, falling down.


    This scene of killing made fisoni frown. Because in front of Zhang Xiu three people, the strength surpasses his anticipation. Such a strength, the two or three hundred troops under his command, simply can not be trapped. Even in the end, I''m afraid none of his soldiers will survive and all of them will die in this yard.


    Fisoni gritted his teeth and said, "abagon, send your men up, too. At this time, we must work hard to kill the merchants of Daqin. If we delay any longer, all our people will die. "


    "Kill


    Abagon also saw the fighting.


    He knew that it would be very dangerous not to take down the Daqin merchant at this time.


    So we have to move quickly.


    With the order of abagon, the private soldiers in his family also pulled out their swords and killed them. One by one, the private soldiers carrying swords rushed forward, but the soldiers of the government had been surrounded by one another. Even the private soldiers under abagon could not get in.


    A group of people, surrounded, continue to attack.


    The curtain fell in the eyes of the people in the corner, and the people in Mazi village were all nervous. For them, they don''t want Zhang Xiu to be killed.


    Good people shouldn''t be killed.


    Timmy also took his family and hid in the corner.


    Now this matter is more and more difficult. He has no ability now, and can''t intervene at all. What he can do is to hide in the dark and not make trouble for Zhang Xiu and other three people.


    It''s the only thing he can do.


    When Zhang Xiu takes Shi a and Wang Yue to kill quickly, suddenly, in the village of Mazi village, the sound of horse''s hooves comes from a distance.


    "Boom!"


    The deafening sound of the horse''s hooves, one after another.


    The sound came very quickly.


    In a twinkling of an eye, this team has already appeared at the gate.


    This is a cavalry team of the royal guards.


    There are not many people, only more than 100, but every cavalry of the royal guards is a good one. Such a team of more than 100 people, even in the face of more than 1000 people, can also win quietly.


    Because the fighting place was in the yard, the centurion of the royal guards, the leader, with two hammers in his hand, rode to the gate, swung the hammers in his hand and beat them hard.


    Boom!!


    Under the impact of violent force, the gate collapsed directly.


    The centurion drove his horse to the inside. Behind him, the rest of the royal guards rushed in quickly. As soon as the cavalry rushed in, without saying a word, it was a quick sprint.


    The horse spurted, and the sword swung up and chopped down.


    The cool light fell, and the soldiers brought by fisoni were quickly killed. Even the private soldiers under abagon''s command could not bear the attack of the cavalry. As long as they were in front of the cavalry, they were killed directly.


    There is no one who can withstand the cavalry.


    More than 100 cavalry soldiers killed back and forth. Hundreds of soldiers brought by abagon and pesoni didn''t even splash a little. In a short time, they were killed with fear. They kept retreating one by one, with a look of panic on their faces.


    Abagon also looked appalled.


    How terrible!


    How could the merchants of the Qin Dynasty have cavalry under their command.


    Also with this idea is fisoni, who has an iron face. A cold sweat trickled down his cheek. He looked frightened in his eyes and said, "abagon, you''ve done me a terrible job this time. Such an elite cavalry is by no means what a businessman can have. Such people, at least, were the chief generals of the Qin army, who could be mobilized. You''re hurting me. "


    "Let''s go. We''ll leave at once."


    Abagon''s eyes turned and he was ready to leave.


    "You can think of it, can''t I think of it?" he said? You look at the gate. Although the gate of the gate has been destroyed, there are still cavalry guards at the gate. These people are so powerful. Do you think we can escape simply by our strength? "


    "Impossible!"


    "This time, we all fell."


    "I have warned you before to teach Gupta well. If you spoil too much, sooner or later you will harm others and yourself. Now, he''s provoking people who shouldn''t, and we can''t escape. "


    Fisoni was extremely angry, and his heart was full of panic. Because at this point, even fisoni can only work hard and can''t think of other solutions.


    Abagon looked helpless.


    So far, what else can we say?


    He turned his eyes and looked at the ancient pagoda lying on the stretcher with a bitter look. At this time, he also regretted that he had spoiled Gupta too much. But now that it''s done, there''s no room for regret.Less than half a quarter of an hour after the cavalry killed, the people of abagon and fisoni were too scared to resist. Only less than a hundred people were left, all kneeling on the ground to surrender, and no longer had the strength to fight.


    A heart, incomparable panic.


    It''s all starting to go down.


    "Plop!"


    Fisoni also knelt down at this time. He had no other choice. After kneeling down, he said, "my Lord, fisoni used his power for personal gain and mobilized the soldiers without authorization. Please come down.". But the reason why I am so helpless is that abagon bewitched me. "


    Abagon knelt down at this time.


    He can only beg for mercy.


    This scene falls in the eyes of gupu tower lying on the ground.


    Gupta''s face was full of despair. He was even more surprised. How could it be that the boy of Daqin was just a businessman? How could he mobilize cavalry?


    He just wanted revenge.


    He just wanted to kill the Qin people.


    Why is it so hard.


    The gupu pagoda at this moment, although he lay on the ground, but also know that this time he fell again. He turned his eyes and saw Zhang Xiu coming. Zhang Xiu has put her sword into the scabbard and will not kill any more.


    Now Zhang Xiu is stained with blood. He strides to gupu pagoda and says with a smile, "gupu pagoda, you are really good. I just want to see what kind of rescuers you can bring. I didn''t expect that you really moved to the rescue, and brought people like abagon and fisoni. "


    Gupta said, "who the hell are you? You''re not a businessman."


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''m Zhang Xiu."


    "Zhang Xiu?"


    After hearing the name, gupu TA blinked. For a moment, he didn''t understand who Zhang Xiu was?


    Abagong knew it. Of course, when he heard Zhang Xiu''s name, he was confused. He had been kneeling on the ground, but at this moment, he collapsed on the ground with a look of despair on his face.


    It''s Zhang Xiu.


    He is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    He took people to besiege the emperor of Qin.


    Fisoni was the same. He fell to the ground with a look of lovelessness on his face. When he looked at Abagong, he was full of resentment. If it was not for Abagong, he would not have provoked the emperor of Qin.


    Fisoni fell to the ground in despair.


    There is a pool of water stains on his crotch.


    He was scared to pee.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept and saw the appearance of abagon and fisoni. Her face was very disappointed. She said: "a powerful official, a big businessman in LAN''s city, but they don''t treat their own people as human beings. You are really disappointing


    "Your Majesty forgive me, your majesty forgive me," he said! If the sinner is guilty, please forgive me. "


    At this moment, fisoni kept begging for mercy.


    He didn''t want to die.


    Abagon also kept shouting for the emperor to spare his life.


    After their shouts came out, the people in Mazi village reacted one by one. They found out that the young master of Daqin in front of them was the emperor of Daqin, and His Majesty was drinking and chatting with them.


    One by one, they don''t feel real.


    However, one by one heart, and feel proud.


    Because they knew the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    Before, Zhang did not think it was the emperor. No matter how he looked at it, he didn''t think that his majesty, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, would come to Mazi village. So at first, he guessed that it was the new Lord of the city. But after Zhang Xiu denied it, he thought that Zhang Xiu was a general in the army.


    Now, Timothy is shocked.


    TimidI''s heart, however, is even more lucky, because he met the emperor, his family''s crisis can be solved.

 Chapter 1352

    At this moment, Zhang Xiu has become a well deserved core. Everyone''s eyes fall on Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu was the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, but now she appears in Mazi village.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Abagong and fisoni kneeling on the ground. A chill passed in her eyes. With a wave of her hand, she said, "take Abagong and fisoni down to me, and gupu tower will also be taken down."


    "Yes


    The soldiers have to be ordered to take three men at once.


    The rest of the soldiers brought by fisoni and abagon were also detained together.


    After all this, we began to clean up the battlefield.


    After all the corpses in the yard were cleaned up and the blood was washed away, it was already early in the morning, even in the eastern sky, there was a trace of fish belly white.


    It''s almost dawn.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the people of Mazi village in the courtyard and said, "it''s disturbing the villagers, especially you. You''re scared too. You didn''t have a rest all night. Now that it''s over, the villagers should go back to have a rest and make up for their drowsiness. "


    "Yes, yes!"


    One by one, they were busy answering.


    Now they are still confused, because they didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was the emperor.


    It''s shocking.


    In particular, the people of Mazi village, the vast majority of people, have never been to the city of Lanshi in their whole life. Most of the people they saw were timidI, a noble man in the village. As for the bigger officials, that is, the officials in charge of their villages, the rest of them have never met.


    Suddenly, I met the emperor.


    They seem to be in a dream.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take care of the people''s thoughts. Her eyes turned and fell on timidI. Today''s timidI, though not in good health, is still slightly pale, but the spirit revealed by the whole person is also good.


    After all, Gupta was caught.


    The family crisis is over.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "Timmy, you are very good. You used to be a nobleman in LAN''s city, but you didn''t bully the people. Instead, you looked after the people in Mazi village everywhere. "


    TimidI said: "Your Majesty praised me. They say that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. If I can help you a little, I''ll help you a little. That''s what I can do. If it''s beyond my ability, I can''t help you. It''s all small things that are not worth mentioning. "


    Zhang Xiu once again said, "a good family must have a happy ending. You are very good. I appreciate it. Now gupu pagoda is a disaster village. After he is taken, you will be the official of gupu pagoda. I hope you can do things steadfastly and live up to our expectations. "


    TimidI said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that your humble position will live up to your expectations."


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly and said nothing more.


    With a wave of his hand, he took Wang Yue and Shi a straight out. The rest of the royal guards immediately followed, escorting gupu tower, pesoni and abagon to leave.


    After the mighty crowd left.


    In the yard, there was a brief silence. The silence disappeared, and then someone began to talk about it, one by one, talking about Zhang Xiu''s coming to Mazi village.


    Among them, the most active is Zhang Xiu''s old man. He is the person who received Zhang Xiu, incomparably active, said Zhang Xiu and he chat things, is very happy.


    By daybreak, the sun was already three.


    At this time, many talents dispersed.


    Zhang Xiu returns to the city of LAN with a great team. When she arrives at the gate of the city, it''s almost midnight. The soldiers at the gate of the city were shocked to see Zhang Xiu escorting people, especially abagon and fisoni, who were also dignified people in LAN''s city. When they were taken down, some people began to talk about them.


    News is also fast into the city.


    It''s in Kunda''s ears.


    Kunda got the news and went straight to the city Lord''s mansion. When he arrived, Zhang Xiu also came back with a team of people.


    Kunda immediately saluted Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, I heard that abagon and fisoni have been arrested. However, the specific situation is not known yet. Please tell your majesty what crimes they have committed? So that the minister can issue it immediately and avoid the panic of the people. "


    Zhang Xiu didn''t hide it. She directly talked about Mazi village, about gupu tower, about Abagong and fisoni, and explained all the things.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu said: "Kunda, many of the officials in LAN''s city are unqualified. In fact, the local nobles only paid a little money and continued to bully the people. At present, the work has not been carried out in a proper way. "


    Kunda said, "Your Majesty, I know."


    After a pause, Kunda said: "I will send an investigation team to thoroughly investigate the disposal of nobles in the whole city of Lancaster. In addition, we will inform the officials of the whole city of Lancashire about fisoni and order them to know about it. "


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said: "if you want to investigate the affairs of the nobles in LAN''s city again, you don''t have to intervene. I will arrange the royal guards to thoroughly investigate the specific situation. About fisoni, you issue a notice to all the officials in blue city. But when it comes to me, I will hide it directly. ""Here it is


    Kunda immediately responded.


    For Kunda, corrupt officials appear in local areas, and even these officials act as protective umbrellas to protect some people who work for the tiger. This is the last thing Kunda wants to see.


    Kunda believes that kusana people should help them.


    They''re all ordinary people.


    It''s a bunch of people who have been squeezed.


    We should work together.


    But today''s scene makes Kunda very sad, so Kunda''s heart is already angry. He wants to clean up these moths and bring them to justice.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as for the matter of May 15, you should select it again. This time, the candidates for participating in and discussing state affairs should not be a group of mobs, or people like abagon. "


    "Yes


    Kunda responded again.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Kunda turned back.


    But within an hour, Kunda had already sent out the news.


    The news of Abagong''s arrest also spread to Jiang Yiyan. Jiang Yiyan originally aimed at the position of the Deputy City Lord. Because of abagon''s plan, everything is smooth, and it doesn''t need Jiang Yiyan to come out in person. However, with the capture of abagon, the person who takes care of everything for Jiang Yiyan is lost, and his hope of becoming the deputy city leader will be dashed.


    Jiang Yiyan is not reconciled.


    After all, a lot of things have been arranged in abagon. Jiang Yiyan thought that he was not willing to fail, so he left the house and went straight to the prison where abagon was detained.


    Jiang Yiyan had to see abagon, and even he had to take all abagon''s resources in his hands. Otherwise, everything he has planned will come to nothing.

 Chapter 1353

    In the cell, abagon was held in solitary custody.


    Not with fisoni.


    Abagong is now extremely uneasy, because after he was detained, Zhang Xiu did not deal with him. Such a situation made abagon''s heart both frightened and hopeful.


    What if he survives?


    As long as he is immortal, he will be able to turn over again sooner or later.


    This is abagon''s confidence.


    However, there has been no news, and Zhang Xiu has never met with her. This uneasy mood spreads in the bottom of her heart, which makes Abagong stay in the cell, and her heart is not stable all the time.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    A rapid sound of footsteps came from outside.


    As soon as abagon heard the rapid voice, he suddenly became nervous, because the sound of footsteps might have something to do with his life and death. He jumped to the front door of the cell, grabbed the wooden door of the cell with both hands, and looked out of the way with his head tilted.


    The next moment, abagon glared.


    There was an unexpected look on his face.


    Because he saw the people coming, not others, it was Jiang Yiyan.


    After a while, Jiang Yiyan came to the door of the cell.


    Abagon said, "what are you doing here?"


    Jiang Yi said, "I''m here to save you."


    Abagong stares at Jiang Yiyan in front of him and suddenly laughs and says, "I''m afraid you''re not here to save me, but for the resources in my hand. You are Jiang Yiyan. I know him well. He is a man who can''t get up early without profit. You couldn''t have come to see me if it wasn''t for profit. "


    On Jiang Yiyan''s old face, there was a touch of embarrassment, but in a flash, it was replaced by a smile, and he said faintly: "Abagong, your words are heavy."


    Abagong said: "if others don''t know you, don''t I know you? You are not from a good family. In the past, you could not be an official. But now that you have the chance to be an official, you can''t give up. "


    After hearing this, Jiang Yiyan chuckled and said, "I didn''t expect that you Abagong knew me so well."


    "Of course!"


    Abagon smiles and says nothing more.


    He didn''t want to talk to Jiang.


    Today, he wants to survive without any other thoughts, which is his only wish.


    Jiang Yiyan said: "Abagong, although I come here for the benefit, I want to be an official for myself. But in fact, I also provide convenience for you. It''s the best of both worlds. "


    Abagon said, "Oh, what do you say?"


    He knows Jiang Yiyan well, but he wants to listen. What''s Jiang Yiyan''s opinion.


    Jiang Yiyan said: "now the news that you Abagong and fisoni have committed crimes has been announced to the whole area of Lanshi city through the government. Everyone knows about you. "


    "Of course, I haven''t said what to do with you."


    "That''s right. According to my inference, I''m afraid Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, has another idea. The reason why he didn''t kill you was that he was going to wait until May 15, when all the famous people in LAN''s city were convened to discuss politics, and then push you out. "


    "So as to make an example."


    Jiang Yiyan said with a smile: "today''s you are involved in the crime of murdering the common people and even colluding with the government. In particular, I have inquired carefully. Although the government has not explained many things clearly, I understand them. This time, you and fisoni both mobilized officials to encircle and kill the emperor. Can you escape such a charge? "


    "You are most likely to be killed."


    "It''s hard to avoid."


    "Of course, it''s because you''re not in a very good situation. That''s why I came. I''m here to alleviate your crime and give you a chance to survive. "


    Jiang Yiyan had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "so I want to make a deal with you."


    "What deal?" said abagon


    Jiang Yiyan replied: "you hand over all the networks in your hands, and write a letter to let the people you contact continue to recommend me, and I will be the deputy leader of the city. In this way, I will do my best to ensure you are safe. "


    Abagong said, "how can I believe you?"


    Jiang Yiyan shrugged his shoulders and said, "abagon, do you have another choice now? What you are involved in is not only the collusion between officials and businessmen, but also the attack and killing of the emperor. According to the normal law, if you attack and kill the emperor, this charge alone will be enough to sentence you to death. "


    Abagon was silent.


    As Jiang Yiyan said, he and fisoni united to let people attack and kill Zhang Xiu. Such a crime, let alone the death penalty, is not too much even for the nine ethnic groups.


    After all, Zhang Xiu is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty.


    The emperor of the Qin Dynasty was not allowed to be insulted, let alone killed.


    Jiang Yiyan saw that Abagong didn''t speak. He had already expected that Abagong would be moved. Because in the current situation, abagon has no other choice, only his way.Abagon took a deep breath and said, "OK, I believe you."


    Jiang Yi said, "that''s right."


    Abagon said, "but how are you going to help me?"


    Jiang Yiyan replied: "what I can help you is that after I am elected as the vice mayor of the city, I will personally admonish Zhang Xiu about your contribution to the city over the years. After all, abagon has helped a lot of people over the years, and has a great influence in the business circle of Lanshi city. You even hate the nobles of Lanshi city In short, what I can do is to constantly excuse you and explain to Zhang Xiu that you are valuable. In this way, do not ask for forgiveness of your crimes, at least save your life. "


    After hearing this, abagon nodded.


    Jiang Yiyan''s words are reasonable.


    Today, abagon has no other choice but to trust Jiang Yiyan and hand over his long-term relationship to Jiang Yiyan. With this premise, Jiang Yiyan has a certain possibility and hope to seek the position of deputy city master of LAN''s city.


    Abagong said, "here comes the ink brush, paper and inkstone."


    Jiang Yiyan, with a smile on his face, immediately told his entourage to take out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and give them to Abagong to write a letter.


    This letter is to entrust all the contacts. In addition, he also made a special statement, hoping that all his people would support Jiang Yiyan and ensure that Jiang Yiyan would become the deputy mayor of LAN''s city.


    In this way, he has a chance.


    After writing a letter, abagon dried the ink and handed it to Jiang Yiyan.


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan showed a smile on his face.


    It''s done!


    He took the letter and was ready to drag it out, but abagon didn''t let it go. Jiang Yiyan looked at Abagong and said, "Abagong, don''t worry, I will help you out of prison. I will never go back on what I promised. "


    "You must remember your promise," said abagon


    "Don''t worry!"


    Jiang Yiyan nodded and answered.


    In a moment, he dragged the letter out of abagon''s hand. He looked at the letter carefully, and his heart was full of joy.


    Now, he has the hope of becoming the vice mayor.


    However, Jiang Yiyan actually had his own plans for the promise of abagon.


    It depends on the attitude of Zhang Xiu on May 15.


    If Zhang Xiu''s attitude towards Abagong is determined to kill, Jiang Yiyan will not speak and will choose to protect himself. Of course, if Zhang Xiu''s style of speaking is not particularly firm, then he will stand up and elaborate on Abagong''s contribution, hoping that Zhang Xiu can make a contribution to Abagong.


    This is Jiang Yiyan''s plan.


    He is not a kind person, and he is not a person who has to do what he promised.


    He has his own judgment.


    Jiang Yiyan said: "Abagong, you should take it with you in the cell. Although you can''t say it, the national master is very busy in dealing with government affairs and has no time to deal with you. You are safe for the time being. Take good care of yourself and wait for my good news. "


    "Good!"


    Abagon nodded and answered.


    What he can and can only do now is to wait for the news from Jiang Yiyan.

 Chapter 1354

    City Lord''s mansion, in the hall.


    Zhang Xiu now began to arrange for the royal guards to thoroughly investigate the local officials of LAN''s city. In addition, it also investigated the aristocratic inventory of the city of Lange. Not only that, Zhang Xiulian also mobilized the royal guards to investigate Wulei city in the rear.


    Such a large-scale mobilization of troops, so that there are countless news gathered up every day.


    The royal guards have been receiving news.


    Wang Yue gathered all the important news to Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu saw the local officials, as well as the entire blue city aristocratic rectification, the heart is not satisfied. Because according to the information from the royal guards, many local nobles made their way with money and saved their strength.


    In this case, as long as Zhang Xiu retreated, these nobles would make a comeback.


    This is what Zhang Xiu is not satisfied with.


    But now, Zhang Xiu has not taken action. He gathered up all the news and put it on his desk so that it could be used at the next May 15.


    Time goes by day.


    It''s also getting closer and closer to May 15.


    On the morning of May 13, when Zhang Xiu was still busy with administrative affairs, Wang Yue came in and bowed to Zhang Xiu, reporting: "Your Majesty, I just received a message from the royal guards about Abagong."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news about abagon?"


    Wang Yue said: "yesterday, Jiang Yiyan, a famous scholar in the city, visited Abagong. We don''t know exactly what we are talking about because no one is around. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "make a thorough investigation immediately, and I will carefully investigate who Jiang Yiyan is and what is the relationship between Jiang Yiyan and Abagong. Originally, abagon had committed a crime and had to be dealt with, but I was going to deal with it at May 15. Unexpectedly, someone went to the cell to visit the prison. "


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned around and went out to arrange.


    In Zhang Xiu''s eyes, there is a trace of coldness. Zhang Xiu doesn''t like people like Abagong. Therefore, Zhang Xiu, who is familiar with Abagong, is not impressed.


    He continued to deal with government affairs.


    Towards noon, Wang Yue came back.


    Zhang xiudao: "have you found any useful information?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue nodded his head and said, "in order to investigate this matter clearly, I divide it into two directions. One is from abagon; the other is from Jiang Yiyan. The two sides investigate each other, and then compare the information to avoid being affected. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "yes, it should be."


    Wang Yue continued: "Abagong admitted that Jiang Yiyan went to visit the prison. In particular, Abagong explained that the reason why Jiang Yiyan went to see him was to get Abagong''s network resources, so that people familiar with Abagong could propose Jiang Yiyan to be the deputy city leader in the political discussion on May 15. "


    "Accordingly, Jiang Yiyan will actively plan for the rescue of abagon after he becomes the vice mayor."


    "It''s a deal for both sides."


    "Originally, abagon''s mouth was very hard. But in the end, Abagong confessed everything truthfully under the trial of the royal guards. This is what Abagong told us. "


    After a pause, Wang Yue said: "as for Jiang Yiyan, I sent someone to inquire about the news. I found that Jiang Yiyan had the blood of Qin people in his ancestors, but he was already a real Kushan."


    "He has always been a teacher."


    "Teach some ordinary people of kusana."


    "It''s hard to be ambitious all the time, and I never entered the noble circle of Kushan, so even Jiang Yiyan is quite famous. But in fact, Jiang Yiyan is a poor teacher. "


    Wang Yue said: "that is to say, Abagong highly praised Jiang Yiyan. According to what Abagong said, he hoped to support Jiang Yiyan to be the deputy city leader and then seek benefits from it. Jiang Yiyan also wanted to gain power, so he was willing to work in collusion with Abagong. Even this time, Jiang Yiyan took the initiative to go there to gain the power of Abagong''s contacts. "


    Zhang Xiu immediately laughed, but the corners of her mouth showed disdain, and said: "Jiang Yiyan thinks very well. On May 15, I''m looking forward to his performance."


    Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, won''t you take Jiang Yiyan?"


    "No need!"


    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said, "let it be. Now, we only need to wait until May 15."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed to answer.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Wang Yue turned and stepped back.


    Not long after Wang Yue left, an attendant entered and reported to him, "Your Majesty, deputy Lord Kunda, please see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The Chamberlain immediately went to deliver the order. In a short time, Kunda entered the room, bowed and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "Kunda, what are you doing here?"Kunda replied: "in reply to your majesty, I have screened the candidates invited again these days, and found that some of them are not true. I''m not good at it, so I''d like your majesty to plead guilty. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "well, if these people are exposed, they will also expose the problem of Kushan. This is also beneficial to the whole of Daqin. "


    Kunda said, "I''m ashamed!"


    Zhang Xiu said: "you are also a sudden deputy city leader. It''s hard to avoid mistakes. If there is a mistake, just try your best to remedy it. After all, today''s Daqin and Lanshi city have enough foundation and time for you to adapt to everything. If you wait for everything in LAN''s city to become regular, but in the end, you stay where you are and never get a promotion, it''s that you don''t meet the requirements. "


    Kunda said, "Your Majesty''s lesson is that I remember what your majesty taught me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Kundaling, turn around and step down.


    After Kunda left, Zhang Xiu continued to deal with government affairs.


    Time goes by.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was May 15.


    This day is the day for Zhang Xiu to discuss politics. On this day, people came and went outside the city Lord''s mansion, and there was an endless stream of vehicles. Carriages stopped by the side of the road, and people invited by Kunda appeared outside the Lord''s mansion. These people get together in twos and threes, chatting, the atmosphere is very warm.


    For them, this is a rare opportunity.


    Especially one by one, they can see and even talk to Zhang Xiu, which is a great honor.


    For business people, if they get an interview with Zhang Xiu, the shop they run will be greatly honored and helpful as soon as the matter is told. For celebrities, Zhang Xiu''s interview is the same for the promotion of their own reputation.


    In any case, everyone can be promoted.


    So the participants were very excited.


    Jiang Yiyan is also among them.


    Today''s Jiang Yiyan has a bright smile on his face, because there are many celebrities and businessmen gathered around Jiang Yiyan. These are the contacts of abagon. All the people around Jiang Yiyan talk and laugh.


    The whole scene is very warm.


    Creak!


    All of a sudden, the gate of the Lord''s mansion opened.


    The porter stood up and waved his hand, then led all the people who came to the meeting and began to walk inside.

 Chapter 1355

    This time, the venue of the discussion was not in the hall of the city Lord''s mansion, but in the school yard of the backyard of the city Lord''s mansion.


    The platform has been set up in the school yard.


    All the people who came to the main residence gathered in the school hall. After all, the people who came to the city Lord''s residence this time were not one or two, but hundreds, coming from all aspects of the city.


    Such a large number of people, a city hall is not enough.


    Therefore, it can only be in the school yard.


    All the people who participated in the discussion of politics were dressed in gorgeous clothes, especially when they came near the school hall, they were all silent and did not speak any more. It''s actually the first time for these celebrities in blue city to participate.


    I don''t know about the situation.


    For Zhang Xiu intention is not clear.


    And the environment is strange.


    So each one didn''t speak. When they got to the place where they were labeled, they took their seats.


    Jiang Yiyan is in the front row.


    After all, he is a scholar.


    Can read, can teach, quite prestige, so the position in the first row. Other famous craftsmen, or merchants, arranged in various ways.


    "Your Majesty is here!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from the entrance of the school yard.


    The sound immediately attracted everyone''s attention.


    Look in pairs.


    Gather at the entrance of the school yard.


    Zhang Xiu was dressed in a white robe, and her clothes were floating, showing the demeanour of a famous scholar. Today''s Zhang Xiu doesn''t show her majesty. On the contrary, she is soft and approachable.


    After Zhang Xiu, Kunda, Wang Yue, Shi a, Pang Tong, Guo Jia and others were followed.


    These people come in and take their seats.


    This is the seat in the front position. Zhang Xiu sits in the center, Kunda, Guo Jia and others take their seats respectively.


    After Zhang Xiu looked around, her eyes fell directly on Jiang Yiyan. Although Zhang Xiu has never met Jiang Yiyan, the venue arranged by Kunda this time is very interesting. If you arrange Jiang Yiyan in the front and center position, Zhang Xiu can see where Jiang Yiyan is.


    Jiang Yiyan has been looking at the audience.


    When Jiang Yiyan suddenly found that Zhang Xiu''s eyes came over, his heart became excited. His heart kept beating. He felt that he must have been noticed by Zhang Xiu, which proved that he was famous.


    With this premise, Jiang Yiyan will have an opportunity to be the deputy city leader.


    This is an opportunity!


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart is extremely excited.


    He sat upright, and then the corner of his mouth rose, showing a smile that he thought was very soft.


    Seeing Jiang Yiyan''s action, Zhang Xiu sneers.


    This old man is so shameless.


    Especially after understanding Jiang Yiyan, Zhang Xiu has a good impression on Jiang Yiyan. Zhang Xiu, a poor scholar who is eager to be an official, does not have any moral character. She really doesn''t like such a person.


    But in a twinkling of an eye, Zhang Xiu drew back her eyes, took a breath and said, "the purpose of calling you together is clear. I don''t want to talk much nonsense."


    Today, Zhang Xiu''s speech is based on the words of Daqin.


    It''s not the words of kusana.


    He''s exclusive.


    The reason for this is to make it clear to all the people in LAN''s city that it will not be Kushan''s words in the future. Gradually, it will all be in the Mandarin of Daqin. Only in this way can we really change Kushan''s language.


    Zhang Xiu''s control of the Kushan is not only the control of one city and one place, but also the control of people''s heart, language, culture and other aspects. We should make the whole Kushan up and down, and all of them are interested in Daqin.


    Only in this way can Kushan and Daqin be inseparable.


    The people under the stage did not speak, but Zhang Xiu stopped for a moment, and then continued: "ladies and gentlemen, I will not talk nonsense any more. Now, please speak freely and tell us what you think of LAN''s city under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty?"


    "Those who want to speak, raise their hands."


    Zhang Xiu opened her mouth with a smile.


    As soon as his voice fell, no one in the crowd spoke, but Jiang Yiyan wanted to be the first in the world. He must be the first to speak in order to fight for the position of vice mayor. Only in this way can we leave an impression in Zhang Xiu''s eyes and establish prestige in the hearts of all the famous people in LAN''s city.


    This is Jiang Yiyan''s mind.


    Jiang Yiyan raised his hand. Suddenly, everyone''s eyes focused on Jiang Yiyan.


    Zhang Xiu took a look at the famous brand on Jiang Yiyan''s desk. She just got to know Jiang Yiyan and said, "Jiang Yiyan, right? Do you have any suggestions for the governance of LAN''s city?"


    Today''s main topic is the governance of Lancaster city.


    Let''s see what these people suggest.


    What Zhang Xiu did not consider.


    Jiang Yiyan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, in view of the need to govern Lanshi City, we need to rescue thousands of people in Kushan. So I think there are at least six aspects that need to be dealt with urgently, so that thousands of people in Kushan can be attached more quickly. "Zhang xiudao said, "tell me!"


    Jiang Yiyan said, "Kushan has been squeezed and exploited by the caste system in recent years. It''s not easy to live. Many people are living in dire straits."


    "Because of the arrival of the emperor, the slavery system and the noble system of Kushan were abolished, so that thousands of people in Kushan Lanshi city could enjoy this happy thing."


    "Now, it''s time to run the city."


    "In the next Jiang Yiyan''s suggestion, first of all, encourage the people of Lanshi city to have children. However, for those who give birth to one more child, they will be rewarded; for those who give birth to two more children, the reward will increase; for those who give birth to three more children, the reward will continue to increase. In a word, we should make use of this policy to improve the population of the people in LAN''s city. "


    "The second suggestion is to give the people of LAN''s city the privilege of reading. For the local people in Lanshi City, they can study for free and get preferential treatment from the government college. After all, compared with the people of Qin Dynasty, the foundation of the people in LAN''s city is weak, especially the people in LAN''s city are squeezed. Therefore, we should give some preferential treatment. "


    "The third proposal is to give the people of Lanshi city the privilege to be officials. When people in LAN''s city want to become officials after studying, they can consider giving corresponding special treatment, at least more preferential treatment than Qin people. After all, this is Lan''s city. More officials should be the people of LAN''s city. "


    "The fourth suggestion is..."


    Jiang Yiyan spoke freely and constantly.


    What he said was mainly what he talked with abagon at that time, which was completely copied. Of course, on the basis of the previous discussion, Jiang Yiyan also added some unimportant content.


    In order to enrich the content.


    When he spoke, his face was filled with a bright smile and a high spirited look. He was not poor in his studies.


    He has some fame, but that''s all.


    Now, in front of all the people in LAN''s city, he expounds his ideas. At this moment, Jiang Yiyan feels that he has reached the peak of his life and is looked up to and watched by countless people.


    How happy it is.


    What a glory.


    Such a thing, Jiang Yiyan is very happy, so his voice, more and more sonorous. His slightly bent back is more and more straight, head high, face with a bright smile.


    A quarter of an hour passed after Jiang Yiyan finished his speech.


    Zhang Xiu''s face is still smiling.


    The bottom of my heart is a sneer.


    In Jiang Yiyan''s words, he regarded the Kushan people in LAN''s city as nobles and became superior people.


    This is tantamount to making the Kushites aristocrats.


    It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to do such a thing.


    He would not ignore the people of the Qin Dynasty in order to win over the Kushan people. Zhang Xiu''s face is still wearing a smile, light way: "Jiang Yiyan''s speech is good, who has another idea, although express their own views, do not care about slightly."


    Jiang Yiyan was excited and said, "Your Majesty, Sheng Ming, the Kushan people in LAN''s city have experienced countless sufferings. Now, if you can get the emperor''s preferential treatment, you will certainly support his majesty. "


    With that, Jiang Yiyan sat down.


    He said no more.

 Chapter 1356

    Zhang Xiu listened to Jiang Yiyan''s words with a sneer in her heart.


    Jiang Yiyan is two faced.


    On the one hand, they are loyal to the Qin Dynasty, on the other hand, they are loyal to the people of Kushan, and even want to separate Kushan from the Qin Dynasty. In Zhang Xiu''s view, the real integration is not to give the other party how much preferential treatment, nor because of the other party''s suffering, it is necessary to give the other party money and food.


    It''s teaching people to fish!


    Let the Kushan people really be rich.


    At the same time, it is also necessary for the Kushan people to enjoy the same treatment as the common people of Daqin, and live together with the common people of Daqin. In the end, the Kushan people were completely integrated into the Qin Dynasty and never separated from each other.


    That''s the key.


    Unfortunately, Jiang Yiyan only considered his own interests, and never considered the integration of Daqin and Kushan. In particular, the thought that Jiang Yiyan went to see Abagong in order to be the vice mayor of LAN''s city made Zhang Xiu unhappy.


    He''s a sycophant.


    Zhang Xiu''s expression remained unchanged and looked at the others.


    At this time, in the crowd not far away from Jiang Yiyan, some people began to come forward to admonish him.


    These people are Jiang Yiyan''s group.


    When they stand up and speak, they have only one purpose: to respond to Jiang Yiyan''s call and agree with Jiang Yiyan''s words. By echoing Jiang Yiyan''s words, the recognition of Jiang Yiyan was formed.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said, "you all agree with Jiang Yiyan''s speech, so you don''t have to get up to speak. I don''t need to repeat the same suggestion. "


    "Today is the day of political discussion."


    "It''s about discussing strategies that are more conducive to the power of blue city, rather than constantly responding."


    "If it''s the same proposal, don''t go into it."


    Zhang Xiu said: "these hundreds of people participated in the team. Didn''t the people who came to participate have their own ideas? Do they think Jiang Yiyan''s speech has covered everything?"


    As soon as these words came out, there were still people who wanted to praise Jiang Yiyan. At this time, they could no longer stand up and shout for Jiang Yiyan. After all, Zhang Xiu has spoken. Standing up at this time is tantamount to fighting against Zhang Xiu.


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart is not good.


    Although Zhang Xiu treat him, is still pleasant, is still with a smile on the face. But somehow, Jiang Yiyan always felt that Zhang Xiu seemed to be aiming at him, or he didn''t care.


    I didn''t take his words seriously!


    Of course, this is just Jiang Yiyan''s own feeling, so even if Jiang Yiyan''s heart, some feelings, now can only be pressed, continue to wait for the meeting.


    After all, there are so many people to speak.


    At this time, in the position close to the back row, an old farmer raised his hand.


    His clothes are very different from others.


    He was dressed in coarse linen, which was very simple. Even one cheek was full of folds, which was the precipitation after the vicissitudes. The old farmer''s fingers are very rough, knuckles are thick, but his spirit is excellent. After he got permission to speak, he stood up, saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully and said, "an yunga, Cao min, meet your majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "anyunga, what do you have to say?"


    Zhang Xiu read all the information of the participants, and kept everyone''s situation in mind.


    Anyunga is an old farmer.


    However, it is quite powerful.


    Generally speaking, the old peasants don''t know any big characters, but anyunga can read. The most important thing is that he will produce 20% to 30% more grain than the average person.


    That''s pretty scary.


    In this era of low grain production, the increase of 20% to 30% is simply frightening.


    Anyunga, however, did not treasure his own experience and taught it to those who were willing to learn. In fact, anyunga''s farming land is more meticulous, and he can make his own fertilizer.


    The so-called fertilizer, that is, compost, is the use of a variety of poultry manure, as well as some vegetable leaves, withered grass, etc. in accordance with the proportion of fusion, eventually forming fertilizer.


    According to the way of anyunga, the output can be increased.


    So although anyunga was born in a humble family, he was also well-known in LAN''s city.


    Before Zhang Xiu abolished the caste system, anyunga was an ordinary pariah. But now, anyunga is free, and has his own land, which is very rich.


    Anyunga had never seen the emperor, especially when the emperor spoke so kindly, he was so excited that when he came to his mouth, he talked several times, but when he came to his mouth, he swallowed it back.


    I''m so excited and nervous.


    So hard to say.


    After seeing this, Zhang Xiu smiles in her heart. Anyunga is a simple man. He must have never seen the world. Therefore, in the presence of so many people, especially in front of Zhang Xiu, it is difficult to speak for a moment.


    Zhang Xiu relieved: "anyunga, speak slowly, don''t worry.""Yes, yes!"


    Anyunga answered quickly. He took a deep breath. He just wanted to speak, but when the words came to his mouth, his mind was blank again. He forgot what he wanted to say just now.


    Fortunately, he took notes.


    There is an outline.


    Anyunga lowered his head, looked at the outline of his notes, and then said: "Your Majesty, the suggestion of the grass people is that although the city of Lanshi is now in operation, the city of Lanshi does not pay enough attention to farming."


    "When I was studying, I heard that food was the most important thing for the people. The biggest problem of the common people is their stomachs, their ability to eat and drink enough, and the rest are small things. "


    "So the key is farming."


    "But now, there is no one in charge of the city, and there is no one who really knows how to cultivate. Such a situation is obviously not feasible. "


    Anyunga''s words, gradually, have returned to normal, the tension in the heart disappeared, then can speak naturally, continue to say: "so little old son''s suggestion, is to hope the emperor, can set up a special official, responsible for farming things."


    "On the one hand, we should urge the people to farm."


    "There are innumerable fertile lands in this city, which are more fertile than Wulei city. It''s a pity if we don''t do more farming, so we must urge the people to do more farming. "


    "On the other hand, it is to teach the people the art of farming."


    "I have some experience in farming. Over the years, I have also recorded these experiences and formed a special book. As long as we follow the instructions in the book, the common people will be much more relaxed. "


    "It''s a matter of following the example."


    "It''s very simple."


    Anyunga solemnly said: "the little old man is willing to donate the cultivated books compiled to his majesty. He affirms his majesty and appoints officials to be responsible for the cultivation of the whole city. If you don''t understand the general principles or reading, you know that if you do a good job in farming, if the harvest comes up, and if the people have food, they won''t panic. "


    With that, anyunga bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, this is the suggestion of the grass people. The grass people have finished!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu took the lead in clapping: "good, good!"


    As Zhang Xiu applauded, hundreds of people at the scene also applauded.


    Like thunderous applause, it reverberated in the school field, and the voice was even more clear. It came to anyunga''s ears. He, an old farmer who had never seen the world, had never experienced such a battle. Zhang Xiu, in particular, took the lead in clapping and praising.


    For a moment, anyunga''s face turned red.


    The heart is happy, but also cramped.


    After all, where did he go through such a battle, so anyunga quickly bowed to salute.


    After half a ring, the applause subsided.


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan frowned even more. He was the first to speak, and the first to put forward many suggestions. But from beginning to end, Zhang Xiu is the same expression, also did not express the sentiment.


    Now anyunga opens her mouth. Zhang Xiu not only claps in person, but also so many people clap together.


    In contrast, he felt puzzled.


    It''s a big difference.

 Chapter 1357

    Jiang Yiyan is sensitive because he wants to be the city master of LAN''s city. Whenever it comes to him, he is very sensitive. So Zhang Xiu did not praise him, let Jiang Yiyan''s heart, feel inappropriate.


    Is Zhang Xiu dissatisfied with him?


    No!


    Jiang Yiyan, he has always been disciplined and has never done anything against the law and discipline.


    Jiang Yiyan thought in his heart, but he is full of the benefit of the Kushan people, full of the desire to help Zhang Xiu achieve. However, Zhang Xiu was so ungrateful that he was disappointed.


    Jiang Yiyan didn''t say much.


    Now, he just needs to wait and see what happens, that is, when the end comes, he will be elected as the vice mayor.


    After all, this is the original plan.


    Now Zhang Xiu doesn''t care what Jiang Yiyan thinks. After listening to anyunga''s words, he is very satisfied. Because there is a lack of people like anyunga in this city.


    This kind of person with craftsmanship spirit is the most scarce.


    This is what Zhang Xiu needs.


    Zhang Xiu''s favorite person is actually a professional, because only in this way can there be no layman in command. Once someone who doesn''t understand farming is in charge of farming. The most common result is to command blindly and disorderly.


    This is not to say that officials do not act, nor that responsible officials want to command blindly, but because they think that they are useless when they do not understand.


    In the end, it will be a great pain for the people.


    For the top officials, policy is just a matter of one sentence, but for the people at the bottom, one sentence policy is where their lives lie and where their livelihood lies.


    Therefore, when Zhang Xiu wants to employ people, she should also employ people who are knowledgeable.


    Seeing that anyunga was going to sit down, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "anyunga, please sit down."


    On hearing this, anyunga stood again. Even though he was a little old, his back was straight at this time. Even if it looks old, it can''t be underestimated.


    Zhang Xiu said again, "come forward."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Anyunga replied again.


    He stood up from the seat with a smile on his face, but his heart was rather uneasy. He didn''t understand. The previous people talked and put forward suggestions, and they all sat down. But it was his turn. After that, although his majesty praised him, he also called him up.


    So anyunga was very worried.


    Especially in the face of so many people, in the face of such a big battle, anyunga is even more uneasy.


    When anyunga walked, he was a little bit adrift.


    There''s a blank in my mind.


    After a long time, anyunga came to the front of the stage. At this moment, the look on his face is even more uneasy, honest and respectful salute to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "the suggestion you mentioned by anyunga is very good. Today''s LAN''s city lacks people who know how to use technology, but also care about people''s suffering. I intend to appoint you as an official of Lanshi city to be responsible for farming. The specific rank of the official position will be determined in the future. Would you like to be an official in the Lord''s mansion? "


    Boom!!


    In anyunga''s mind, it seemed that there was thunder. At this moment, he was stunned in the same place, completely stunned by the things mentioned by Zhang Xiu.


    Who is anyunga? He is an old farmer.


    All my life, I have been farming, facing the Loess and back to the sky. But I didn''t expect that at this age, I was taken in by the emperor of Qin. He even wanted to be an official in the Lord''s mansion.


    In fact, not only anyunga was surprised, but all the people who attended the conference were shocked. Because from Jiang Yiyan to anyunga, anyunga is actually the second person to express his opinions.


    Anyunga, a man of such an age, wants to be an official.


    Many people were surprised.


    At the same time, many people have ideas in their hearts.


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart, is very embarrassed, because he put forward a lot of suggestions, in Jiang Yiyan''s view, all are extremely important suggestions. However, Zhang Xiu didn''t say anything. On the contrary, it was an old man like anyunga who won Zhang Xiu''s approval and became an official in the city Lord''s mansion.


    It''s just bad luck.


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart is very red, but he is not worried.


    Because he still has a chance.


    Zhang Xiu has been looking at anyunga. Seeing anyunga fall into a trance, she immediately understands anyunga''s situation. He did not urge, then quietly waiting.


    Moreover, through anyunga, Zhang Xiu also has the idea of buying horse bones.


    Who is anyunga.


    An old farmer.


    How old is anyunga?


    He has half of his body buried in the earth. He is an old man.


    However, anyunga can still be an official.


    Many of the people present were floating in their hearts. Because of Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, all the people who came to the meeting had ideas in their hearts. Even old men like anyunga can become officials in the city Lord''s mansion. Why can''t they.This is everybody''s idea.


    At this time, anyunga came back to himself. He looked at Zhang Xiu, bowed respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty respects him, and the old man is willing to. Your majesty, please rest assured that the old man will properly handle farming. If this matter can''t be handled properly, then the old man will no longer be an official. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    This is the loveliness of anyunga.


    It is impossible for an old man in the officialdom, or a man of mixed officialdom who has a lot of insight, to set up such a military order, because once such a military order is said, it is tantamount to cutting off his own retreat.


    It''s something many people don''t want.


    But anyunga said it in front of everyone.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "I believe you!"


    Anyunga was excited when he heard this. He said again: "the old man will not let his majesty down."


    He was very excited.


    Because he was trusted and respected by his majesty.


    In the eyes of people like anyunga, since it''s a promised thing, it''s absolutely impossible to shirk responsibility and complete it. Especially in front of the emperor, in front of everyone, that must be done.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go back to your seat. When the meeting is over, just stay and wait for the arrangement."


    "Yes


    Anyunga replied again.


    This time he returned to his seat, it was a lot easier. After all, he had already had an experience, but his heart was a lot easier. In the past, he couldn''t be so relaxed.


    Zhang Xiu was still sitting at the top of the table. He looked around at all the people present and said, "you guys, the farming things mentioned by anyunga have been finished. I think it''s very good. All of you, speak up. The prosperity of Lancaster city and Lancaster city is inseparable from your suggestions. "


    "Your Majesty, I have something to say."


    At this moment, someone raised his hand again.


    Some people in front of them raised their hands first, waiting for Zhang Xiu''s arrangement. Now this time, it''s when you raise your hand to start talking, which directly attracted Zhang Xiu''s attention.


    Zhang Xiu said, "it''s you. What do you have to say?"


    As the voice fell, the man who raised his hand stood up, bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, my name is anbedar, a businessman. I have some ideas about the business system in Lancaster city today. "


    "Let''s hear it!" said Zhang Xiu


    Zhang Xiu also knows about anbedar, a businessman from the common people. According to the information inquired by the royal guards, anbedar and abagon are not the same. They are well water but not river water.


    Amberdal said: "Your Majesty, although the government has issued a notice to encourage business, the business is not prosperous enough. Even after Daqin captured the city, many people are still waiting, so that many local people, including businessmen from other places, are waiting."


    After a pause, amberdal continued: "so much so that the business of Lancaster city seems to be recovering, but in fact, it is far from it."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "yes, you can see it clearly. For various reasons, it seems that today''s blue city has resumed its commercial operation, but in fact, it is far from enough. So what are you going to do? "


    Anbedar said, "if you report back to your majesty, it''s natural to attract investment."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said, "is it true that, as previously said, taxes are reduced or exempted, and all the people who are in business in Kushan are given preferential treatment?"


    "No, no!"


    Amberdal shook his head and said, "I don''t agree with such a proposal. Because such a proposal, in the end, can not achieve a good operating condition


    "Amberdal, be careful!"


    Jiang Yiyan heard anbedar''s words, stood up and yelled.


    Amberdal''s words are tantamount to denying his proposal.


    This is what Jiang Yiyan can''t bear.


    Therefore, Jiang Yiyan stood up directly. For the sake of his position as deputy city leader and power, even on the occasion of hundreds of people, Jiang Yiyan dared to fight with anbedar.


    Jiang Yiyan is a scholar.


    He has a tricky tongue.


    Therefore, Jiang Yiyan believes that he will succeed. Especially after Jiang Yiyan, there are countless merchants in LAN''s city. With such a number of people, Jiang Yiyan is more confident.


    Anbedar knows the situation behind Jiang Yiyan and the influence of abagon. In other words, in ordinary times, that is, when the Qin army had never entered the city of LAN, anbedar did not dare to be an enemy with Abagong, so he did not dare to be an enemy with Jiang Yiyan.


    But now, amberdal is not afraid of Jiang.


    After all, this is in front of Zhang Xiu.


    What''s more, there are some expectations in amberdal''s heart after anyunga''s incident. If he mentioned things, Zhang Xiu recognition, then he may also be an official.He is not willing to be a businessman all the time. Even if a businessman can earn a lot of money, he is not willing to do such a thing without status.


    Amberdal took a deep breath. He looked up at Zhang Xiu sitting on the stage. Zhang Xiu was so happy to see it. Immediately, anbedar knew it.


    Zhang Xiu encouraged him to speak.


    Amberdal said: "Jiang Yiyan, I said that the proposal you mentioned is not appropriate. Naturally, there is a certain basis. You just slap the table and stand up, and then you order me to be cautious. What, are you trying to stop me from talking? "

 Chapter 1358

    Anbedar was a businessman, but he was not afraid of Jiang Yiyan, so he held his head high and looked ready to fight.


    As the saying goes, the reason is not clear.


    Now there is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty. Anbedar doesn''t believe that he will be defeated.


    Jiang Yiyan frowned at anbedar''s words. In other words, abagon is here, especially with abagon''s contacts. Jiang Yiyan is sure to directly block anbedar from speaking.


    Now, it can''t.


    Jiang Yiyan took a deep breath and said, "Mr. anbedar misunderstood that speech is free in front of his majesty. If you want to say anything, just say it without any scruples. "


    "It''s better that way," amberdal said


    Jiang Yiyan looks at the arrogant appearance of anbedar, and his heart is extremely angry.


    He was very dissatisfied.


    But it didn''t help.


    Can only be staring at amberdal, that sharp eyes, as if to spit fire.


    But amberdal turned a blind eye and said, "why should we say that it is not appropriate to reduce taxes or even give preferential treatment to Kushan people in business, and we can not achieve good results. Instead, we need to attract investment?"


    "In fact, the reason is very simple. Lanshi city is not the Lanshi city of guishuang people, but the Lanshi city of Daqin."


    "The LAN''s city in Daqin means diversity and the gathering of numerous businessmen. Businessmen from western regions, Daqin and other countries will gather here. "


    "What do all people want when they compete in business together?"


    "It''s fair!"


    "Once the most important standard of fairness is lost, it is impossible to maintain a good business environment. Even, on the contrary, they ruined their reputation and made the merchants who came to the city leave again. "


    Amberdal said: "the so-called preferential treatment for Kushan merchants in Lanshi city is an unfair arrangement that breaks the balance. It is true that countless people in LAN''s city were once squeezed by caste system and exploited by nobles. "


    "But the problem is, once the merchants in LAN''s city are given all kinds of preferential treatment, making them superior everywhere and squeezing the merchants in other places, who will come?"


    "So it''s not right."


    "On the surface, this has safeguarded the interests of the Kushan people in Lanshi city. In fact, from a long-term perspective, this has indeed lost the future of Lanshi City, which is not necessarily desirable."


    Amberdal said, "Your Majesty, this is my analysis."


    Jiang Yiyan can''t admit defeat.


    Once he admits defeat now, it means that his proposal is wrong. Then, in the next step, we will encounter great resistance to recommend him as the Deputy Lord of the city.


    This is unacceptable to Jiang Yiyan.


    Therefore, as soon as anbedar finished speaking, Jiang Yiyan already said: "anbedar, your words are all sophistry. And you, after all, are not from Lancaster city? "


    Jiang Yiyan was so fierce that he scolded: "your words of anbedar are just nonsense. They are words without father or mother. They have forsaken the people and the roots of LAN''s city."


    "Wait a minute!"


    At this time, Zhang Xiu interrupted.


    Zhang Xiu stared at the indignant Jiang Yiyan and said: "Jiang Yiyan, this is purely from the interests of LAN''s city, for the development of LAN''s city. Therefore, there is no need to talk about words like "no father, no mother" and "abandoning the city of Lancaster". Whether it''s Jiang Yiyan or amberdal, the starting point is to make the city better. "


    Brush!


    Jiang Yiyan''s face changed greatly.


    Zhang Xiu''s words are tantamount to giving him a slap in the face.


    If there is no Zhang Xiu, Jiang Yiyan fiercely and even aggressively scolds anbedar, then under Jiang Yiyan''s strong attack, anbedar may not be able to withstand.


    But when Zhang Xiu opened her mouth, it was different.


    He can''t stand.


    Compared with Jiang Yiyan''s helplessness, anbedar''s face was full of joy. Because Zhang Xiu''s position, although not directly support him, but in fact, it is the biggest support for him.


    In this way, it is impossible for Jiang Yiyan to accuse him in the broadest sense.


    Amberdal bowed to Zhang Xiu, expressed his gratitude, and then continued: "so under the current situation, what Lanshi city needs is two words - fairness. Only fairness can make the business of LAN''s city flourish day by day and keep everything in LAN''s city from being hindered. "


    After a pause, amberdal continued: "the so-called business invitation machine is actually very simple. Whether it''s local people or other businessmen in Lancheng, Lancheng will give preferential treatment to all businessmen who are willing to do business in Lancheng."


    "For example, those who want to do business can be exempted from tax temporarily."


    "Or, to provide a place to do business."


    "Even, give some support."


    "In this way, we can attract local businessmen, or businessmen from western regions, Daqin and other places, to Lanshi City, and let them bring money to Lanshi city.""This is the opportunity to attract business, the way to prosper the business of Lancaster City," amberdal said


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu nodded slightly.


    But after Jiang Yiyan heard it, he yelled: "ridiculous!"


    Amberdal said: "Mr. Jiang said it''s ridiculous. I''d like to ask you some advice. What''s ridiculous about the question I mentioned. If Mr. Jiang''s words are reasonable, then I am willing to apologize. However, if Mr. Jiang''s words don''t hold water, it would be a shame to ask him not to say such words without any nutrition. "


    Jiang Yiyan is angry.


    Only anbedar, a pariah, especially a business pariah, should blame him like this.


    There is no respect or inferiority.


    Jiang Yiyan said in a deep voice: "anbedar, you pay attention to fairness everywhere. However, I forgot the most important point. The merchants in Lanshi city were very tired after the war. The merchants in the city of Lancaster don''t have enough strength. Once you adopt a fair strategy, in the end, the business of the city will be swallowed by foreign businessmen. "


    At this point, Jiang Yiyan was filled with righteous indignation and said, "you should pay attention to fairness, but the merchants in LAN''s city have been suppressed. How can we talk about fairness?"


    Amberdal shook his head and said, "Mr. Jiang, you really don''t have any standard. Are you a businessman? You''re not a businessman, you don''t know the business situation of blue city; do you know how to operate? You don''t understand, you don''t understand the way of business. You are not a businessman, and you have no business mind. How can you know the business situation of the city


    Jiang Yiyan''s cheek twitched.


    He was so badly targeted by amberdal.


    Jiang Yiyan opened his mouth to speak, but when he reached the end of his speech, when he was about to speak, anbedar said again: "in fact, the merchants in Lanshi city don''t have to be sent anywhere. I''m a businessman in Lancaster city. I''m good enough to face any fair competition. "


    Speaking of this, amberdal looked around and said, "many of the people who come here today are also businessmen. I believe that as people in Lancaster City, they don''t need anyone''s pity and dignity. It''s because the businessmen in Lanshi city can live with dignity by their own hands and break into a world. "


    "Well said!"


    Among the crowd, there were businessmen.


    "Amberdal has a point. We landlords don''t need any special conditions. We don''t need to go through the back door, we just need fair competition. "


    "We can compete fairly."


    "We can fight without fear of challenges."


    Every businessman speaks.


    Even some of the businessmen who spoke were on Jiang Yiyan''s side. After listening to amberdal''s words, these people also felt blood boiling. They were businessmen in Lancaster City, and they didn''t need any charity or pity.


    They can be on their own.


    With their hands, they can break through a piece of heaven and earth in LAN''s city and hold up a piece of sky in LAN''s city.


    Zhang Xiu''s face also showed approval.


    Amberdal is a good man.


    In particular, amberdal''s words have the charm of speech. It is precisely in this way that business people can support him one after another.


    "Pa! Bang


    Zhang Xiu began to applaud, and her face was full of praise.


    With Zhang Xiu''s action, officials began to applaud. In such a big environment, a moment later, there was thunderous applause, all of which paid tribute to amberdal.

 Chapter 1359

    The applause is like thunder, it''s constantly ringing.


    The duration of this sound is even longer than that previously given to anyunga. Because amberdal said a more touching thing, that is dignity. No matter they are businessmen or the rest, they all have their own dignity. They do not want to be given alms or looked down upon.


    Therefore, under such a premise, one by one, amberdal was applauded for a long time.


    Amberdal bowed around.


    Thank you for the applause.


    And Jiang Yiyan now, is embarrassed Leng in situ.


    He said nothing.


    Because now the facts have proved that he is no longer required to speak and everything is self-evident. This applause, has proved everything, has let everyone have a judgment.


    Jiang has already sat down in silence.


    He doesn''t need to talk anymore.


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan''s heart is extremely lost. He wants to build up a good impression in Zhang Xiu''s heart several times. However, every time they failed, they even lost face.


    After a good half, the applause stopped.


    Everyone''s eyes fell on amberdal again.


    Zhang Xiu said, "amberdar, come up."


    "Yes


    Amberdale was ordered to go on at once.


    At this moment, he was very excited, because anyunga, who was before him, had also been ordered by Zhang Xiu to come forward, and finally became an official of the city Lord''s mansion, and was able to leap over the dragon''s gate.


    In fact, it''s not far away from amberdal''s seat to the front stage. It''s only ten steps, but amberdal''s heart is not calm, and his heart is very excited.


    In a short period of time, anbedar''s heart seems to have experienced a long time. When he stood in front of the stage, he saluted Zhang Xiu respectfully. At this moment, anbedar also had expectations in his heart.


    According to the rules of Kushan, a pariah is a pariah.


    He is a businessman. He can only be a businessman all his life. There can be no change.


    But now he has a chance.


    Zhang Xiu looks at anbedar, he knows that anbedar is a talented person. Such a person should work in the Lord''s mansion, so he said, "anbedar, would you like to work in the Lord''s mansion?"


    "Yes!"


    Amberdal didn''t even think about it. He answered directly.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "yes, I''m looking forward to your performance. After you enter the city Lord''s mansion, you will be responsible for the operation of the whole business of the city and the restoration of the business of the city. I hope you can do better. "


    Amberdal said, "I will live up to the high expectations of the emperor."


    Zhang Xiu said: "talents in business are not only the hope of LAN''s city, but also the urgent need of Daqin. I can promise that as long as you do a good job, LAN''s city is just your transition. In the future, the whole Kushan will be your administrative space. Even Daqin can be expected. Therefore, I hope you can do your best, and at the same time, constantly improve your talents and learning. "


    This is a great encouragement to amberdal.


    Plop!


    Amberdal knelt down directly. He knocked his head on the ground and said, "amberdal, you will live up to your Majesty''s expectations. The business of blue city will recover in the shortest time. "


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    "Thank you


    Anbedar stood up. He bowed to Zhang Xiu again, then turned back to the seat.


    At this moment, countless people cast praise and expectant eyes on him. It''s not only that amberdal''s talent is very good, but also that amberdal now has more space to display, and even the possibility of promotion.


    This is what everyone is looking forward to.


    Zhang Xiu took over the topic and said once again, "all of you, speak freely. Just like anyunga and anbedar, as long as you are talented and capable, you can be appointed by the imperial court and work in the Lord''s mansion. "


    With Zhang Xiu''s words, the scene atmosphere was ignited.


    One person, one after another.


    However, these people who expound their own suggestions can really get Zhang Xiu''s approval, after all, is a small number.


    Rao is so, also let countless people envy.


    A political conference, the atmosphere is very high.


    From early morning to noon, it was only half done. Zhang Xiu specially arranged the cooks of the city Lord''s residence to prepare meals and a small amount of drinks, and sent them to the school yard to have dinner with the people at the scene.


    When the meal was over, Zhang Xiu gave everyone half an hour to rest.


    Zhang Xiu also left with people.


    While these people were resting, Jiang Yiyan gathered some businessmen and celebrities around him. All of these people have put forward suggestions, but without exception, none of them has entered the city Lord''s mansion, and they are all put aside by Zhang Xiu.These people gathered around Jiang Yiyan.


    The faces were even more gloomy.


    "Mr. Jiang, I''m afraid there''s something wrong with the current situation. We put forward suggestions one by one, but they were all refuted. Even people like amberdal and others attacked us


    In the crowd, someone spoke.


    "Yes, Mr. Jiang also felt targeted by the emperor."


    "All of us have something to say, and all of us are good for LAN''s city. We think of the city everywhere, but now in exchange, it is the emperor''s shelving. "


    One by one, they keep talking.


    These people''s faces were not angry.


    They are not reconciled.


    I''m not willing to take all the advantages from others.


    Jiang Yiyan said: "the reason why the emperor aimed at us, or said that the rest of us got benefits, I now, roughly understand. The emperor, he didn''t want to benefit the Kushan people in Lanshi city. So our proposal failed. "


    After a pause, Jiang Yiyan continued: "but now, these can be ignored for the time being. We just need to wait until the end, and then we will start to elect Lao Fu as the deputy city leader. As long as I succeed in taking office, you can get everything. "


    When they heard the words, they nodded.


    Everyone agrees.


    As long as Jiang Yiyan is able to succeed as the deputy city leader, it is easy for them to get benefits with Jiang Yiyan''s help.


    Jiang Yiyan talks with the public, time flies.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it''s time to discuss politics in the afternoon.


    At the gate of the school yard, Zhang Xiu has brought Kunda, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others into the school yard, and all the people sitting in the school yard return to their seats and stop talking.


    When Zhang Xiu was seated, he looked around at all the people present and said, "this morning''s political discussion has yielded remarkable results. I am very glad that many talented people with ideas and abilities have emerged."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "if everyone in LAN''s city is like this, then Lan''s city will surely be under great rule. Of course, I know it''s impossible, but I will do my best to let those who have ambition, talent and ability show their ambition. It''s not difficult for them to have ambition. They can only end up depressed all their lives. "


    As soon as that was said, people began to applaud.


    Immediately, countless people applauded.


    Like thunderous applause, resounding through the school field, the atmosphere is very warm.


    Zhang Xiu waited for a while, the applause subsided, a person''s eyes looked at Zhang Xiu again, only to hear Zhang Xiu say: "this afternoon''s political discussion, continue. I hope that countless talents will emerge this afternoon. "


    "Come on, raise your hands."


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    With the fall of Zhang Xiu''s voice and the situation in the morning, many people began to raise their hands to express their inner thoughts. They even wanted to become famous and work in the city Lord''s mansion.


    Zhang Xiu is happy to see its success.


    With patience, he listened to the following people explain their suggestions one by one.


    One by one, they keep talking.


    Time slipped away quietly in the suggestions of celebrities in LAN''s city. In the afternoon, some people were selected to be officials in the city''s main residence, but most of them still failed.


    Towards the end of the evening, Jiang Yiyan''s heart is also urgent. He shows his eyes to his close businessman, because it''s time to recommend him to be the vice mayor.

 Chapter 1360

    Jiang Yiyan''s name is chamar.


    He once had a good relationship with abagon. After abagon was jailed, it was chamar who was responsible for contacting the people and was ready to elect Jiang Yiyan as the deputy leader of the city.


    Chamar raised his hand, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have a word to say."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu heard the name of chamar, she knew the situation.


    This is from abagon.


    He is also a member of Jiang Yiyan''s family.


    After all, these people are all registered here in Zhang Xiu.


    "What do you have to say?" she said


    Chamar replied: "to your majesty, today''s LanChi city is thriving under his Majesty''s administration. However, after the liberation of the people in Lan Shi City, it is difficult for many places to take care of the fundamental interests of the people in Lan Shi City. "


    After a pause, chamar said: "so I think the city needs a full-time deputy city leader to be responsible for the interests of the people in the city and to ensure that the people in the city will not be bullied and will not encounter injustice."


    Zhang Xiu said, "who do you think is the most suitable person?"


    With a smile on his face, chamar did not answer immediately. Instead, he said: "this candidate must have enough prestige, experience and patience to solve the problem. What''s more, we must have enough virtue. "


    "In this way, your majesty will not be disappointed."


    "Only in this way can people not be disappointed."


    "The grass-roots people think about this candidate, but Jiang Yiyan is the best one."


    Chamar solemnly said: "in LAN''s city, Mr. Jiang has been preaching, imparting knowledge and educating people. Although he was born in an ordinary family, with the help and guidance of Jiang Lao, many people stood out and finally changed their fate. Whether it''s prestige, virtue or experience, Mr. Jiang is the most suitable person. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "you mean that you think Jiang Yiyan can be the deputy mayor of LAN''s city."


    "Yes


    Chamar nodded solemnly.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned, he swept the people present and said, "who among you thinks that Jiang Yiyan is suitable to be the deputy mayor of LAN''s city? Let''s talk about your suggestions and express your opinions. "


    As soon as this remark came out, many people on Jiang Yiyan''s side expressed their views one after another.


    However, there are many people in the crowd who have not participated.


    There is no lack of discerning people present.


    Some people have seen the clue and judged that Zhang Xiu didn''t have a good impression on Jiang Yiyan, so many people watched coldly and didn''t get involved in Jiang Yiyan.


    For nearly a quarter of an hour, all those who should have made their stand have already made their stand.


    There are many people standing beside Jiang Yiyan.


    At least nearly 20 people.


    These people, businessmen or celebrities, are influential.


    Jiang Yiyan looks back at the lineup behind him with a confident smile on his face. With so many people''s support, he believes that Zhang Xiu will make a judgment, and it is also beneficial for Daqin that he serves as the deputy leader of LAN''s city.


    It can help Daqin stabilize the situation.


    Zhang Xiu glanced at a group of people headed by Jiang Yiyan and said faintly, "let''s not care about Jiang Yiyan''s role as deputy city leader. Now, I have some people who want you to see."


    "Come on, bring people up."


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    With Zhang Xiu''s order, in an instant, there were generals to arrange. A moment later, abagon, Gupta and fisoni, who had been detained before, were brought out.


    As soon as these three people came out, Jiang Yiyan''s face changed greatly.


    Under normal circumstances, Jiang Yiyan has nothing to do with Abagong and others. But in today''s situation, Jiang Yiyan once went to see abagon, so he was worried in his heart, especially when he was guilty.


    So Jiang Yiyan was flustered.


    He wanted to run away.


    He wants to leave.


    However, Jiang Yiyan found that Zhang Xiu''s eyes seemed to lock him, so that Jiang Yiyan could only sit in the same place, and did not dare to move at all. At this moment, Jiang Yiyan, not to mention being a deputy mayor, was worried about whether he could leave the school yard of the mayor''s mansion safely.


    Zhang xiupai pointed to abagon and others and said in a deep voice, "most of you should know abagon and fisoni, who are celebrities in the city of Lancashire. As for the younger guptah, this man is abagon''s nephew and is responsible for the local villages. You may not know him


    At this point, Zhang Xiu began to expound the problem of gupu pagoda. All the things that gupu pagoda oppressed the common people, even colluded with the local nobles to act as the umbrella for the local nobles are expounded.


    Especially when it comes to local nobles and colluding with local officials, Zhang Xiu focuses on it.


    As soon as these things were mentioned, many people on the scene turned pale.Because some of them are involved.


    No one thought that Zhang Xiu would choose to take action at this time, or even deal with people like Abagong at this time.


    After Zhang Xiu had explained all about Abagong and others, she said, "Abagong is not only colluding with officials, but also openly mobilizing private soldiers to make trouble. His crime should be punished."


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave the order.


    With an order from Zhang Xiu, in an instant, a soldier came forward and killed Abagong with a sword.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as an official of LAN''s city, Fei Sonny saw that people were harming the people. He didn''t want to support the people and uphold justice. On the contrary, he harmed the people and was in vain to be an official. His crime should be punished and killed!"


    Zhang Xiu ordered again.


    As soon as the order was given, the soldier acted immediately, stabbed out with one sword and killed fisoni.


    As for the last gupu pagoda, Zhang Xiu was also executed directly.


    None of the people involved survived.


    All killed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the three people on the school field and continued: "this is your LAN''s city. If you don''t care about people''s life and death, who cares about people''s life and death. You know, these people are all your villagers. Therefore, abagon and others were all executed. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "as for the local officials colluding with the nobles, or even covering for the nobles, I have arranged an investigation, and now it has been properly investigated. If the nobles involved had taken the initiative to rectify before, they could have spared once. But now, it''s no good. These people collude with officials, and their crimes should be punished. "


    After that, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue.


    Wang Yue took out a pamphlet directly and began to announce it in front of everyone. Because all the nobles who colluded with officials were investigated by Wang Yue.


    With Wang Yue''s announcement, he finally talked about more than 60 aristocrats.


    Zhang Xiu took the words and said: "all the more than 60 nobles mentioned here, without exception, will be punished and confiscated. Even these people have to be dealt with. The government will inform the government of the specific disposal results. "


    At this moment, all the people in the school field were silent.


    These people are aware of the collusion between nobles and officials and the false report of the situation. But now Zhang Xiu, without exception, all the aristocratic situation, all said, even directly one by one disposal.


    It''s shocking.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept the people in the school field, and finally fell on Jiang Yiyan.


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan''s heart burst.


    What do you think of him?


    What does Zhang Xiu see him do?


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart is extremely panic, as if there is a needle under the buttock. Just Jiang Yiyan now, how all feel panic, because Zhang Xiu has been staring at him.

 Chapter 1361

    Zhang Xiu said: "just now, a man recommended Jiang Yiyan to be the vice mayor of LAN''s city. However, according to the information I have received, Jiang Yiyan and Abagong collude, and both sides have interest exchanges. "


    "Abagon is suspected of rebellion, especially the more profitable transaction between abagon and Jiang Yiyan."


    "A man who is willing to collude with such a man as abagon for the sake of power, I don''t think he is qualified to be a deputy city Lord. Even the opportunity to participate in the discussion of state affairs should not be available. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "so in front of everyone, I announce that Jiang Yiyan''s qualification will be banned."


    Brush!


    Jiang Yiyan''s face changed greatly.


    I was in a panic.


    He did not expect that, in the end, Zhang Xiu not only did not appoint him as the deputy mayor, but instead removed his qualification to discuss politics. Under such a premise, Jiang Yiyan can''t do anything well, or even be despised.


    Since then, his position has plummeted.


    Especially after Zhang Xiu''s actions in school today, all of them came out, Jiang Yiyan completely destroyed.


    Jiang Yiyan is unable to refute.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    And Jiang Yiyan side of an individual, which want to recommend Jiang Yiyan as deputy city leader. At this moment, one by one like falling into the ice cellar, all feel cold.


    It''s all fear.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept, and continued: "what we just dealt with was the nobles of LAN''s city. But in fact, many of you are not worthy of the name. "


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue again.


    In Wang Yue''s hands, there are detailed information, so he explained one by one, but all the people mentioned are silly, and they are extremely uncomfortable.


    I didn''t expect that they were finished.


    It can be said that this is Zhang Xiu''s biggest killing, killing too many people in LAN''s city.


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, ordered: "everything involved in the case, drag down, all execution."


    At this moment, Zhang Xiu shows her overbearing style.


    The eyes are very sharp.


    One by one soldiers entered, dragging people to leave quickly, and soon, there were bursts of screams. All the people involved in the crime and acting recklessly have been executed.


    However, compared with the team of hundreds of people, only a few people were executed.


    It does not affect the overall situation.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes swept over the noisy scene and said in a deep voice: "silence!"


    At the command, everyone stopped talking.


    One by one, they look at Zhang Xiu again. They look at the people who have been killed. Although they know that these people are worthy of death, they also feel sad in their heart.


    Zhang Xiu took a breath and continued: "what I appreciate more about the positioning and development of Lanshi city is the concept expounded by amberdal. LAN''s city is not a LAN''s city for one person, but a LAN''s city for countless people. What Lan''s city needs is a fair and just environment, not an unbalanced environment. "


    "Those who are executed today deserve what they deserve."


    "First, the abolition of the caste system in LAN''s city must be carried out to the end. The existence of a group of moths can not make the nobles of LAN''s city survive in a new way."


    "To abolish the aristocracy is to abolish the aristocracy and not allow the aristocracy to continue to exist."


    "That''s fundamental."


    "Otherwise, the reform of Lancaster city will not be completed."


    Zhang Xiu talked with great eloquence and said: "based on this premise, I killed the officials who colluded with the nobles in LAN''s city, but none of them remained. In fact, many of these people have just accepted a small bribe or a small crime, but all of them have been executed without exception. Why? "


    "To clean up the environment!"


    "Let the whole city know my determination."


    "The reform of lanshicheng will never stop."


    "As for people like abagon, guptah and fisoni, they are also executed at the same time, because I want to tell you that you are Kushan people in LAN''s city, and you will be Qin people in LAN''s city in the future."


    "Since we are Qin people, we should show more concern for our compatriots, instead of suppressing them everywhere, or even building our happiness on the pain of our compatriots."


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp eyes and eyebrows said: "you must remember that there can''t be pie falling from the sky in this world. If you want to live a better life, you have to rely on yourself and your compatriots to work together. So cherish every one of your compatriots and never let them down. "


    The words spread clearly into everyone''s ears.


    When these people hear Zhang Xiu''s words, their hearts are also greatly touched. As Zhang Xiu said, if they all ignore the life and death of their compatriots, who is willing to take care of them?


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you don''t have to keep a secret about today''s affairs. After I go back, I can make a lot of publicity. I want to let you know one thing through this matter, that is, to do things in a down-to-earth way. I will not treat you badly. But if you want to commit crimes and take a shortcut, it will be a dead end. LAN''s city welcomes people who are really willing to do things conscientiously. It does not welcome people who are bent on taking shortcuts and want to break the rules. ""We will bear in mind your Majesty''s instruction!"


    In the crowd, a businessman spoke.


    "Remember your Majesty''s instruction!"


    "Remember your Majesty''s instruction!"


    One by one, the people who took part in it began to speak.


    Nowadays, these people have really seen Zhang Xiu''s means, and they also know Zhang Xiu''s way of dealing with people. It''s impossible for Zhang Xiu to have a good relationship here.


    Jiang Yiyan at this time, a heart is cold. Although Zhang Xiu did not kill him, after all, he only had some contact with Abagong, but there was no conspiracy.


    Therefore, Zhang Xiu never killed him.


    The problem is, he''s worse now than dead.


    Zhang Xiu''s every word, is like a knife, mercilessly poke in his heart. This kind of thing down, Jiang Yiyan in Lanshi City, is not only a joke, but also a bad reputation.


    The original Jiang Yiyan may also be able to earn a meager income by teaching to ensure the source of family livelihood. But up to now, I''m afraid no one is willing to put the child into his hands.


    He''s been cut off.


    Jiang Yiyan''s heart, full of anger, because all this is caused by Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu broke his way.


    Zhang Xiu even ruined his future.


    Now, Jiang Yiyan''s life is worse than death, so he is biting his teeth. Suddenly, a stream of anger surged up from the bottom of his heart and tried to roar: "Zhang Xiu, if you have the ability, kill me. If you don''t kill me, you will regret it. I will make you regret it. "


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan didn''t know the courage.


    He has given up everything.


    Anyway, there is no way out.


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth. Looking at Jiang Yiyan sitting in the center of the first row, she said coldly, "Jiang Yiyan, I don''t want to kill you because from the beginning to the end, you are just a person who has a little ambition but doesn''t cause any harm."


    "Who are you? Don''t you have any points in your heart?"


    "You are a poor scholar."


    "If you really know anything about the University, I''m afraid you don''t have it. If you choose any of my scribes, you can''t win. The level of saving you is like a cow''s hair in the territory of Daqin. "


    Zhang Xiu''s sharp words continued: "when it comes to the ability to govern the local area, you have never held any official position and have no experience. If you are allowed to act as the deputy city leader, you are afraid that if you want to take it for granted, countless people will be ruined because of you."


    "When it comes to the ability to March and fight, you are old and have no strategic vision. Let you into the army, I''m afraid your legs will have to shiver. "


    "When it comes to strategy, you don''t have any strategy."


    "It''s just an ignorant old man."


    "What''s your reputation? That is to say, you''ve lived a little longer, and some businessmen are willing to give you a hand at abagon''s advice, and then they want to grab benefits when you become the deputy city leader."


    Zhang Xiu''s words are like a ruthless knife.


    Jiang Yiyan was in the same place.


    His eyes are full of anger, but Zhang Xiu''s words are hard for him to refute.


    Everyone around me was also surprised.

 Chapter 1362

    Zhang Xiu''s side is very domineering. She only listens to Zhang Xiu continue: "you Jiang Yiyan, such a person, can sell everything for the benefit. When you become the deputy city leader, I''m afraid you can sell the whole people of LAN''s city. "


    "To be honest, you have never been loyal to mahasaro, the former Lord of the city of Lam. Of course, mahasaro doesn''t show any kindness to you, so you are on the side of the people in Lancashire. But you, Jiang Yiyan, have never been loyal to these ordinary people. All you want in your mind is to use them for profit. "


    "Jiang Yiyan''s ancestors have been ordinary people for generations. It''s not too much to be a pariah. But according to what I know, your ancestors are honest people. However, Jiang Yiyan''s mind is sinister. He is sorry for his ancestors and unfilial to them. "


    "The people of LAN''s city are also your compatriots. However, in order to become the Deputy Lord of the city, you are willing to fall into the trap and collude with merchants for profit. What you seek is to trample on the interests of the people. You are not benevolent to the people. "


    "You and abagon are close friends."


    "But you didn''t say a word from the beginning to the end when abagon was killed. Besides, the reason why you Jiang Yiyan can be recommended is also because of abagon''s contacts. But you don''t care, you don''t do justice to abagon. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "you and others are unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous. If you enter the official circle of LAN''s city to be an official, and you also act as the vice mayor, that''s ridiculous. It''s a joke for people to see me. "


    Jiang Yiyan was even more angry.


    Chest, as if there is endless anger in the accumulation, to burst out at this time.


    "Hoo! Hoo


    Jiang Yiyan has ups and downs in his chest.


    It''s more shortness of breath.


    He was extremely annoyed by Zhang Xiu, so that he was very angry. So in this case, his eyes were staring at Zhang Xiu, and his eyes began to congest.


    All of a sudden, Jiang Yiyan only felt a sweet throat.


    "Poof!"


    A mouthful of blood rushed up. After Jiang Yiyan spurted blood, the look in his eyes dimmed. His body, straight back fell to the ground.


    At this moment, Jiang Yiyan''s mind is gradually blank.


    The look in my eyes faded away.


    His breathing also began to slow down, gradually approaching nothing.


    Jiang Yiyan was lying on the ground. He just felt that the world around him was whirling, as if there were countless people shouting. But these voices were getting farther and farther away from him, and even he could not feel them.


    Finally, the last sound and brilliance disappeared. Jiang Yiyan''s neck was crooked and he fell to the ground and lost his breath.


    Zhang Xiu''s words directly killed Jiang Yiyan.


    This curtain fell in everyone''s eyes, no one thought that Zhang Xiu was harsh, because if Zhang Xiu was harsh, Jiang Yiyan would not be scolded to death. It is because Jiang Yiyan made a mistake that he felt guilty, so when he was scolded by Zhang Xiu, he became angry and died of vomiting blood.


    Jiang Yiyan asked for all this.


    Zhang Xiu saw Jiang Yiyan dead, sneered, Jiang Yiyan such a person, he is really don''t look up to. It''s a disaster to keep such a person in blue city. It''s better to die earlier.


    Zhang Xiu ordered people to drag away Jiang Yiyan''s body. Immediately, Zhang Xiu continued: "ladies and gentlemen, I''m very satisfied with today''s political discussion, because many people have emerged through it. I can make it clear to you that the people I need are those who take the right road, not those who take the wrong path. "


    "You do things in a dignified manner. If something happens to you, just come to the Lord''s mansion. I''ll make the decision for you."


    "Of course, you may say that the city Lord''s residence has a high threshold and is not easy to enter."


    "In view of this, I specially set up a big drum outside the city Lord''s mansion. As long as you have grievances and discontent, you can come to the city Lord''s house and beat the drum. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "whether I am here or not, I will deal with it."


    This is Zhang Xiu''s copy of the Daqin model.


    Because there is a big drum in the city master''s mansion, people outside can beat the drum to complain. Even if Zhang Xiu is not in LAN''s city in the future, the officials of LAN''s city dare not act recklessly.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s intention.


    "Your majesty


    In the crowd, some people began to shout.


    "Your majesty


    "Your majesty


    Everyone who took part in the discussion of state affairs began to shout. Their faces were full of joy. Because today''s reform of LAN''s city will only be better and better. In particular, all the criminals and the unruly nobles will be dealt with, and the development of LAN''s city will be better and better.


    Of course, these businessmen and celebrities in Lan Shi city also took this opportunity to really understand Zhang Xiu''s nature.


    Zhang Xiu doesn''t like crooked people.


    This is their perception.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the words one by one, raised her hand and pressed down, indicating that everyone was quiet. After half a sound, all the shouts subsided. Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "farewell!"At the command, the soldiers at the gate of the school yard retreated.


    All the people who attended the meeting began to leave.


    All the people who left this time were innocent and had no problems. Now that they leave, their hearts are full of hope, because today''s blue city, with more knowledgeable people in power, will be better and better.


    With the departure of the crowd, the school yard was quiet.


    Only Zhang Xiu, Kunda, Guo Jia and Pang Tong were left.


    Guo Jia said with a light smile: "Your Majesty''s killing, though countless people were killed. However, this event must bring endless hope to the city of Lancaster, which is rebirth in Nirvana. In particular, after the news of LAN''s city came out, whether it was spread to Wulei city or other places, it was beneficial to Daqin


    Pang Tong echoed: "after this incident, thousands of people in LAN''s city completely stood on his Majesty''s side. We have two cities, Wulei city and Lanshi City, so it''s not difficult to base ourselves on Kushan and even wipe out Kushan. "


    Kunda said, "Your Majesty is holy!"


    Now, he has great admiration for Zhang Xiu, because the whole situation of LAN''s city is not very good, because once a large number of officials and nobles are slaughtered, it will certainly have an impact on the newly stabilized Lan''s city.


    However, Zhang Xiu still resolutely chose to kill.


    This is a broken wrist for a strong man.


    It''s also for the future of blue city.


    Zhang Xiu chuckled and said: "next, LAN''s city still needs an excessive and stable time. After this time, we will send troops to the South and continue to attack Kushan."


    Zhang Xiu''s choice is very simple, that is, steady.


    Step by step.


    Even if this way, will be a lot slower, but for Zhang Xiu, this way is very stable. Because in this way, won the territory, will be thoroughly integrated into the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu clearly remembers that the Mongolian cavalry once swept countless places, and no one could stop them. Even the territory laid down by the Mongols was the most extensive in all dynasties, but it eventually fell apart.


    The reason is very simple. Every place is still in its own way.


    They still have their own writing customs and habits.


    Under such a premise, even if it is a short-term reunification, it will eventually be separated from each other again. And Zhang Xiu wants to attack Kushan, but she doesn''t want this to happen.


    So his steps are very steady.

 Chapter 1363

    Peshawar, the political center of Kushan. The most powerful officials and nobles of Kushan gathered here. But in Peshawar today, it is a serious scene.


    For outside the east gate of Peshawar was a great army.


    It is Indra who is arrayed.


    Beside Indra, there was the emperor who had to ride a horse.


    Behind Indra, there were 200000 troops.


    This is all he has in the south.


    Indra and Dixu went straight south after they were defeated in the northern city of Lanshi. Even though he passed through Peshawar, Indra did not stop for a moment and only went south. As soon as he returned to the city of Magadha, Indra mobilized all his forces and quickly went north to Peshawar, intending to seize the imperial power.


    Indra, this time, wanted to fight for military power. For many people, it''s an opportunity, an opportunity to thrive and even change their destiny.


    So many nobles in mogatuo city gave their money to help.


    There are many more people coming.


    It''s all about gambling.


    Bet Indra can win.


    That''s why Indra''s side can gather 200000 troops and so many people.


    Indra''s eyes fell on the tower of Peshawar and exclaimed, "brother, Peshawar has been surrounded. Now, you are desperate. Surrender. As long as you open the city, I can promise that I will not kill you. "


    The elder brother of Indra was named amoni.


    This man is the eldest son of Vasudeva.


    In the past, after the death of visutiva, the ninth Prince kujiula and the fourth Prince Indra were outside, but the eldest prince amoni, the third prince and the fifth Prince were all in Peshawar city. Because the second, the sixth, the seventh and the eighth Prince died early, amoni finally won after fighting with the third and the fifth prince.


    However, the strength of Peshawar city under the control of amoni has been greatly weakened after some internal fighting.


    So it was very difficult for amoni to fight against Indra.


    After all, the fighting in Peshawar has resulted in countless deaths and injuries. The officials in the imperial court alone have been killed and injured by more than 40%, and countless big officials have been killed. Therefore, the strength of Peshawar today is very weak.


    If you really want to fight, amoni will surely be defeated by Indra.


    However, amoni could not admit his advice. He looked at Indra outside the city and said, "old four, when the father emperor is in power, let you sit in the city of morjietuo to resist the danger of the south. You cannot return to Peshawar without the orders of your father. Now, you are not only returning to Peshawar, but also trying to force the palace to make trouble. Do you want to rebel openly by doing so? "


    After a pause, amoni continued: "I''m the eldest son of my father. When my father died, I''ll inherit from him. And now, I have inherited the Kushan, and have been recognized by all the officials in the imperial court. Fourth brother, now that you are back, you should see me. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Indra laughed.


    In laughter is disdain.


    See amoni.


    How is that possible? He Indra is no weaker than amoni. Even in Indra''s eyes, he never put amoni in his eyes and said, "brother, I''ll give you a chance now. As long as you order to open the gate and surrender, then I can not kill you. But the problem is, as long as you insist on resistance, you will lose. "


    "No way!"


    After hearing this, amoni gave a strong reply.


    He looked angry and said, "Indra, you are so stubborn. You are the fourth son of father emperor. Father emperor asked you to stay in the south, but you have to return. It''s treacherous of you to be like this now. "


    Indra said in a deep voice, "amoni, this kind of polite and big talk, you can say less, it''s useless."


    The emperor must take the words, he said slowly: "listen to the people in the tower of the big city, now, you will continue to follow amoni. Once the city falls, you will all die. "


    "You are old people in Peshawar. You know everything about Peshawar."


    "The problem is that amoni can''t resist the fourth prince. Now, if you want to continue to follow amoni, you are only seeking your own death


    Emperor Xu bewitched: "if you don''t want to die, if you don''t want to fight any more, put down your arms and surrender. I believe you must have your own judgment. "


    As soon as these words came out, there was a sound of discussion on the tower.


    In fact, amoni is weaker.


    There is no doubt about that.


    After the emperor''s simple words, he made the soldiers frying pan on the upper floor of the city, because no one wanted to die, and no one wanted to follow a man who had no future.


    Amoni looked around and said in a deep voice: "don''t believe the words of emperor Xu. This emperor Xu is the most cunning. If you believe them, you believe the wrong person. "


    When Emperor Xu was outside the city, he heard amoni''s words, and he said in a high voice: "officers and men on the tower, amoni said I was cunning, and he said I couldn''t believe my words. However, amoni forgot that if they believed me wrong, they could escape and leave after the fourth Prince''s army entered the city. At that time, the strength of the fourth prince will be weakened. ""The fourth Prince entered Peshawar to unite all forces."


    "The fourth prince will not aim at you."


    "So please rest assured that your official posts will not change after the fourth prince enters the city. Even those of you who have made great contributions will be rewarded and promoted. "


    Emperor Xu said: "the officers and men on the tower are the so-called good birds who choose trees to live in, and good officials who choose their masters to do things. For so many years, the great prince has not been listed as the successor by the great emperor of vesudeva. It can be seen that the great emperor does not recognize amoni at all. "


    "On the contrary, the fourth prince was sent to mogatuo city early by the great emperor to command the army and resist foreign enemies."


    "It can be seen that the great emperor attached great importance to the fourth prince."


    "You follow a man who has no ability, Prince amoni, even if you win now. But have you forgotten the Qin army in the northern city of Lanshi? "


    "Now the Qin army is aggressive."


    "It''s going south."


    "If amoni is such an incompetent man, at last the army of Daqin comes, amoni can only surrender and can not resist. Only the fourth prince, who has been in battle for a long time and is good at fighting, can lead you to resist the Qin army. "


    Emperor must say: "today''s Kushan, only the fourth prince, can turn the tide.". For the rest of us, it is impossible to affect the situation on the battlefield or save the crisis of Kushan. "


    After these words came out, the already shaken morale of the army on the city tower was even more difficult to stabilize.


    Countless people worry.


    I''m worried about the Qin army going south.


    As a matter of fact, the news of everything that Daqin had done in LAN''s city had been sent back long ago. Everyone knew that the army of Qin was strong and powerful, and it was not easy to resist. If amoni were to be stationed in the city of Peshawar, it was very likely that the city of Peshawar would not be able to resist the attack of the Qin army.


    It can only be Indra.


    Because Indra had been on the battlefield and was able to command the army against the enemy.


    There are many voices of discussion.


    The generals on the city floor have lost the heart of fighting and the will to fight against Indra.


    This scene fell into amoni''s eyes.


    Amoni''s cheek twitched.


    Emperor Xu, an old man, was too vicious. His words moved the morale of his army. You know, in order to win, he paid a great price, and even many of his subordinates died in the infighting.


    Today, amoni is in charge of Peshawar and the Lord of kusana.


    But the fourth prince came.


    But Indra will rob him of everything.


    Amoni looked at the soldiers who were talking, his face was cold, and he yelled: "a group of bastards, cheer me up, don''t listen to the temptation of emperor Xu. Emperor Xu is deliberately deceiving you. What about Daqin? As long as I''m here, Daqin''s army can''t go south. Cheer me up and get ready for the first battle. "


    The soldiers on the tower are not talking.


    It''s just that the faces of the soldiers have floating thoughts, and they don''t intend to be loyal to amoni any more.


    In particular, amoni''s generals also have a floating mind. It''s not that they don''t want to fight to the death. It''s that amoni doesn''t have 80000 troops, but the army of Indra outside the city is more than 200000.


    The gap between the two sides is too big.


    Such a strength gap makes the generals under amoni dare not fight with all their strength.

 Chapter 1364

    "Sonorous!"


    At this time, a clear sound like the sound of the dragon.


    But a general pulled out his sword.


    The general''s name is Cooper.


    He was a general under amoni. At the moment, Kup drew his sword, put it on amoni''s neck and said, "king, now you can''t stop the fourth prince. For the future of Kushan, for the safety of us, order to surrender. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Amoni clenched his teeth and said, "Kup, I promoted you. Are you going to betray me?"


    Kup said, "it''s not that I want to betray you, it''s the king. You have too few troops today. Seventy thousand troops, to resist the fourth Prince''s army of more than 200000, simply can not carry. What''s more, you are just the king of Kushan, and you don''t get the support of all parties. Such a noble frost can''t resist the attack of the great Qin army. "


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    Amoni was so angry that he jumped and scolded.


    He did not expect that the people closest to him would betray him, which surprised him. He did not expect that the current situation would be so intractable.


    If he refuses, he can be sure that Kup will kill him.


    Because Kup is such a person.


    He is a cruel man.


    The expression on amoni''s face was extremely solemn and finally turned into dejected. He ordered: "Kaesong surrender!"


    Kup said, "king, you are a smart man."


    "The king has orders. Kaicheng will surrender."


    Coop''s orders are loud.


    With the order, the soldiers on the tower immediately put down the suspension bridge and opened the gate. The open gate suddenly exposed Peshawar to Indra''s eyes. With a wave of Indra''s hand, a group of his generals quickly entered the city and seized the gate, then took control of the gate.


    Indra looked at the emperor and said, "the teacher is really powerful. Now we have captured Peshawar without a single soldier. Our strength will be strengthened again. "


    Emperor must say: "fourth prince, do you know what to do when you enter the city next?"


    Indra replied, "don''t worry, teacher. I understand. Now, the first thing for the disciples to do after they enter the city is to stabilize people''s minds and take all the power of Peshawar in their hands. "


    "So it is


    There was a smile on emperor Xu''s face.


    His disciple is also very talented and resourceful.


    In time, it will become a great weapon.


    But when the emperor thought of it, he thought of Zhang Xiu in LAN''s city. Indra is far from Zhang Xiu. If Indra wants to defeat Zhang Xiu, there is still a long way to go.


    Emperor Xu''s heart, also want revenge.


    He wants to beat Zhang Xiu.


    Otherwise, the shame of the past can not be washed away.


    "Into the city!"


    Indra cried out.


    With Indra''s command, his men immediately took action, and a great army entered the city. After the army entered the city, the generals of the army began to go to the four gates of Peshawar city and directly wanted to control the four gates.


    Indra, accompanied by Emperor Xu, ascended the tower.


    Came to amoni.


    Amoni gritted his teeth and said angrily, "old four, you are playing Yin moves. You have the ability to fight with me. If you have the ability, you can attack the city directly. I don''t agree with you to break the city of Peshawar by such means. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    When Indra heard this, he burst into laughter.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    In the laughter, it was pitiful.


    Indra experienced the fight with Zhang Xiu. Although Indra was defeated, Indra''s heart was greatly tempered. Even Indra''s own strategy has been greatly improved.


    Amoni is now in custody. Seeing Indra laughing, he clenched his fist and growled, "fourth, what are you laughing at? Don''t you rely on emperor Xu''s bewitching? If you don''t have the temptation of emperor Xu, you can''t win this time. "


    Indra said, "so you are stupid and superficial. You know what I laugh at? What I laugh at is that you, amoni, as the king of a country, say you want to fight, but you say you are bewitching. "


    "When the two countries fight each other, they will do everything they can."


    "As long as you can win, it''s all worth it. What''s more, what the teacher said is just a fact. The city of Peshawar today can''t stop my army at all. "


    "So it''s natural that you lose."


    Indra continued: "boss, if I were you, I would never have said such superficial things. Your words like this are really a disgrace to the royal family and the emperor. "


    Amoni gritted his teeth and said, "Indra, you are a villain''s ambition."


    Indra shook his head and said, "you are too superficial. I really don''t understand how the third and fifth were defeated. In a word, you take advantage of the boss. If you were not the boss, you would have been defeated by your ability. Amoni, you''re a disgrace. ""I''ll kill you!"


    Amoni broke free from the bondage of the soldiers and rushed directly to Indra.


    But as soon as he rushed out, a warrior rushed out behind Indra and kicked out. Just listen to a bang, amoni was kicked to the ground. In particular, the samurai kicked out, so powerful that amoni fell to the ground, curled up, his face red.


    Indra shook his head and said, "come on, take amoni down so that he can take care of you."


    The soldier had to order him to come forward and pull amoni away.


    But Indra''s eyes fell on Kup and praised him: "Kup, I know you. This time, you did a good job. You should remember the first merit. "


    With a smile on his face, Kup said, "the king is so ridiculous."


    He addressed the king directly.


    It is no longer called the fourth prince, because now after amoni is taken, Indra must be the king of Kushan. Under such a premise, Kup would immediately change his address to show his attitude.


    Indra also had a smile on his face. He was very satisfied with Kup''s change. He turned to look at the rest of the people. These soldiers stationed on the top of the city looked a little uneasy.


    Indra exclaimed, "you soldiers of Kushan, I know your loyalty. You are all good sons of Kushan. You are all warriors who are good at fighting. "


    "The prince entered the city today, not for killing, but for rectifying the power of Kushan, for gathering all the power, and then preparing to resist Daqin."


    "So you don''t have to worry."


    "The prince promised that all your salaries would be increased by 10%."


    "With immediate effect."


    Indra hurled a voice: "kusana will never treat his own people ill, never treat the warriors on the battlefield. So now, you don''t have to worry, just work hard and practice your skills. "


    This remark caused a sensation.


    Because for the soldiers in the army, what concerns their interests is the real interests. Now they are all excited that they can get more benefits.


    "Long live the king!"


    Just then, some of the soldiers were shouting.


    "Long live the king!"


    "Long live the king!"


    More and more soldiers shout, and more and more people begin to kneel on the ground. Long live the king. For now they have all turned to and served Indra.


    This scene made Indra happy.


    He made it.


    After he entered the city, he wanted to buy people''s hearts and control all the troops in his hands. As long as the army is in hand, everything else is easy to solve.


    Indra asked the soldiers to get up, and then mobilized his men to take over the army. He took the emperor''s beard and his civil and military generals and went directly to the Imperial City in the city of Peshawar.


    Now he''s going to be in charge of the imperial city.


    Indra is very familiar with these.


    So Indra, with Emperor''s beard, entered the imperial city smoothly, took the family of amoni, and directly called together the civil and military generals of Kushan.


    With the presence of the emperor and the prestige of Indra, Indra soon took charge of the government, holding all the people in his hands and forming a cohesive force.


    All was settled, and Indra became king of Kushan.

 Chapter 1365

    In the crowd, coop was there, too.


    Dressed in armor, Kup exclaimed: "as a rule, since the king has inherited the throne and become the king of Kushan, we should follow the precedent. There was the great vesuva before, but now the great king should also be called the great emperor, the great Indra


    One by one, Kup was surprised.


    To no one''s surprise, Kup suggested that Indra should go beyond the king and become Indra the great.


    It''s a chance to show your face.


    The rest of the civil servants and military generals regretted that they had been a step too slow and forgot this consideration. At this time, one by one, they stood up and began to agree, hoping that Indra would become the emperor of Kushan.


    Emperor must hear, he did not agree.


    However, he narrowed his eyes and turned to look in the direction of Indra. It depends on how Indra decides.


    Now Indra is the king of Kushan.


    See Indra''s decision.


    He made no suggestion.


    Indra at this time, in fact, has some intention in his heart. Because the king of Kushan and the emperor of Kushan are totally different. A great emperor of Kushan is enough to command all sides and make them obey. However, the king of Kushan is far from being able to mobilize all sides, and his prestige is not enough.


    In his heart, he wanted to be called Indra the great.


    It''s just that Indra is very aware of his situation.


    Moreover, when he entered Peshawar, he and the emperor had a discussion on whether to be emperor or not.


    This was expected by Emperor Xu.


    It''s just that a lot of things have been agreed, but standing in different positions, the situation is different. Just as Indra now, his reason thinks that it is to do according to what he had to consult with the emperor in the past. But in Indra''s heart, in this situation, he said that he didn''t want to be the Kushan emperor, which was a lie.


    It''s impossible that Indra didn''t want to be emperor.


    He also wants more power.


    Just when Indra was thinking so freely, he immediately thought of Zhang Xiu, who was far away in Lanshi city. If there were no Zhang Xiu, Indra would be the great Kushan emperor immediately. But now there is Zhang Xiu. Indra does not dare to be emperor, because he still needs to take this opportunity to seek more long-term consideration.


    Indra took a deep breath and immediately stabilized his mood. He looked around at everyone and said in a loud voice, "you guys, it''s no problem that I become Indra the great according to the Convention. However, the Qin army of Zhang Xiu is in the northern Lan''s city. "


    "In the past, marshal modi died in the hands of Zhang Xiu."


    "In the past, Wu died in the hands of Zhang Xiu."


    "In the past, Wulei city and Lanshi city fell one after another."


    "There is even more hatred for the death of his father."


    Indra''s voice became higher and higher, and said, "if I don''t take revenge, I will never give up, and I have no face to be emperor. Now, I am the king of Kushan. When I wipe out the troops of the Qin Dynasty and wipe out Zhang Xiu, I will become emperor. "


    "Zhang embroidered here and vowed to wipe out the precious frost."


    "Zhang Xiu, in particular, abolished the caste system in Wulei city and Lanshi City, shaking the foundation of our noble frost. If you don''t destroy Zhang Xiu, all of you will be slaves to her. "


    "So we have to fight with all our strength."


    Indra repeated again with a loud voice, "we must fight with all our strength."


    In this sentence, Indra has a strong voice.


    This is an expression of determination.


    All the civil servants and military generals in the hall are people of origin, nobles of Kushan, and none of them is humble. According to Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, Zhang Xiu wanted to destroy the nobles, so they were all Zhang Xiu''s enemies. They supported Indra to fight.


    "It''s not the time for war, king."


    At this time, the emperor must speak.


    As soon as the words came out, everyone''s eyes fell on emperor Xu. As we all know, Emperor Xu is the sage of Kushan. Some emperor must give advice for Indra, so everyone is at ease. Now, the emperor has to make suggestions, and everyone is very cautious.


    Indra said, "teacher, what does that mean?"


    Emperor must say: "king, you fought with Zhang Xiu. You know that Zhang Xiu''s weapons are very powerful. Up to now, we have no idea about the two kinds of weapons in Zhang Xiu''s army, one of which is ambushed and exploded on the ground, and the other is thrown and exploded directly


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said: "if we don''t know these two kinds of weapons clearly, and then come up with a plan to deal with them, we will certainly suffer losses when we fight with the Qin army. So the priority now is to make clear this weapon. "


    Indra said: "the teacher has a point, but just because of weapons, it is not suitable for war. After all, in our army, weapons are also very powerful, and our artillery is also very powerful. "


    The rest of the civil and military generals echoed.


    Even some people say that emperor Xu grows others'' ambition, destroys his prestige and belittles the power of Kushan.A person, keep talking.


    They are all for war.


    When Indra saw this, his eyes fell on emperor Xu again. He was calm and did not panic at all. Indra waved his hand to silence the crowd and said, "teacher, what''s your reason?"


    The emperor bowed to him and said again, "Your Majesty, we have more than 200000 troops today, and there are 700000 troops in Peshawar, which is less than 300000 in total."


    "When Zhang Xiu went south from Wulei city to Lanshi City, his troops would certainly be more powerful, and the strength he could call on would certainly not be less than 300000 people."


    "If we only rely on this strength, it''s almost impossible to destroy Zhang Xiu. What''s more, we are still on the offensive side. Zhang Xiu is mainly on the defensive and consumes less troops. "


    "We need more troops."


    "So now, we need to gather more forces to compete with Zhang Xiu. The strength we need is mainly from all the nobles of Kushan. We need to mobilize them. "


    Emperor Xu zhengse said: "only in this way can we have a chance to fight. Otherwise, our fight with Zhang Xiu is likely to be defeated. After all, Zhang Xiu''s strength is very strong. "


    Indra nodded after hearing this.


    He agreed with emperor Xu''s analysis.


    As a person who has dealt with Zhang Xiu, Indra just knows the power of Zhang Xiu. To deal with Zhang Xiu, he must have full preparation and grasp, otherwise he can''t send troops easily, because Zhang Xiu is not an easy generation.


    Indra thought for a moment and asked, "teacher, when do you think we should send troops?"


    Emperor Xu replied, "report back to the king, we are going to send troops. There are two things to do now. In this way, we can fight for opportunities, but also paralyze Zhang Xiu and fight for more time for us. "


    Indra said, "teacher, what about those two things?"


    Emperor Xu replied: "the first thing is to arrange envoys to mobilize the whole noble of Kushan, so that they can mobilize their private soldiers to come to Peshawar City, so that they can join forces with the king and prepare to attack Daqin."


    "The second thing is to arrange people to go north to LAN''s city and take the initiative to ask Zhang Xiu for peace. It shows that the king has no intention to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. He hopes to take Lan''s city as the boundary and delimit and govern it."


    Emperor Xu said: "the first thing is to gather strength; the second thing is to delay time and avoid Zhang Xiu going south. At the same time, it is also to paralyze Zhang Xiu and let him forget the threat of the king. "


    "In the territory of the Qin Dynasty, there was once a king, Gou Jian, who was defeated by the enemy king, Fu Chai, and became a prisoner. In order to survive, he succumbed to the enemy and even tasted feces for his husband to paralyze him. "


    "In the end, he won."


    "A king of a country should have great mind and great spirit, but he should also be able to bend and stretch, so that he can achieve his foundation."


    Emperor Xu zhengse said: "in order to defeat Zhang Xiu, the king endured some grievances and even some criticism. These things, in fact, must be experienced. "


    Indra took a deep breath and said, "the teacher''s instruction is remembered by the disciples."


    Emperor must say: "understand?"


    "I see!"


    Indra nodded and answered.

 Chapter 1366

    As soon as Indra''s words changed, he said, "since it is necessary to stabilize Zhang Xiu for the time being, or even paralyze Zhang Xiu, who is the most suitable envoy to send this time?"


    Emperor must say: "can only be old minister to go."


    "Not right!"


    Indra shook his head and answered, "the teacher is my master. If the teacher makes any mistakes, it will be a great loss to me. Especially the teacher is the pillar of Kushan, the pillar of the country. So, I don''t agree with the teacher to go


    For Indra, if there is an emperor to be in, he will feel at ease.


    If the emperor has to leave, he has no bottom in his heart.


    Moreover, Emperor Xu is his master, and he can''t do without him.


    Emperor Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "king, since you want to paralyze Zhang Xiu, I must go there in person. As the saying goes, Daqin could not have killed me if the envoys of the two countries had not been killed. If I go to visit Zhang Xiu and express my intention of seeking peace, Zhang Xiu will believe it. Otherwise, if I send the rest of the people to visit, Zhang Xiu will not believe it if the weight is not enough. "


    "It''s dangerous," he said


    Emperor Xu said: "everything has risks. You can''t just stop doing it because there are risks. King, everything we do is for the inheritance of Kushan, but also for revenge. Don''t you want revenge, king? "


    "Revenge, of course!"


    Indra clenched his fist.


    He will never forget the embarrassment of Tianmen Mountain.


    Originally, he was able to resist the Qin army in Tianmen Mountain, but the loss of LAN''s city made his rear lost, and the morale of the army collapsed. Finally, Tianmen Mountain was unable to resist, so that Zhang Xiu easily captured Tianmen Mountain and swept away the army stationed in Tianmen Mountain.


    Indra was unwilling to fail.


    He wanted revenge.


    Indra looked at emperor Xu and solemnly said, "teacher, is there really no other alternative?"


    "No!"


    The emperor must shake his head and answer.


    Indra said: "the teacher went to seek peace, but maybe he would be humiliated by Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu is not a simple character. Teacher, have you thought about it? "


    Emperor must rub of stand up, way: "the king always is sofa decisive person, how today, again and again, again and again of inquiry.". When, the king is also such a mother, like a woman. The king is dedicated to unifying the Kushan and even seizing the whole Qin Dynasty. The king can''t be so tardy. He should be decisive and strong. Even if it''s wrong, you can''t be indecisive. "


    Indra said, "teacher, I understand."


    "Somebody


    Indrophene said.


    Immediately, an attendant came in and heard Indra say, "bring me a glass of wine."


    The attendant went to prepare immediately.


    A moment later, he had brought the bottle, filled it with wine and passed it through Indra''s hands.


    Indra took the wine bottle, went up to Emperor Xu and said, "teacher, I will give you this glass of wine. I hope the teacher can make a success when he goes to Lanshi city. I hope the teacher will come back to Lancaster city as soon as possible. "


    "Thank you


    Emperor Xu took the bottle and drank it.


    After drinking the wine, he threw away the bottle in his hand, bowed to Indra again, and turned away.


    Indra looked at the back of the emperor who had to leave. He had expectations in his heart, but he sighed. In fact, in his heart, he didn''t agree with the emperor''s decision to go as an envoy, because such a decision was too risky. Even if it paralyzed Zhang Xiu, even if it temporarily stabilized Zhang Xiu, it was just to delay a little time.


    However, Emperor Xu was also kind.


    This is the heart of emperor Xu.


    So in the end, Indra agreed to the proposal of emperor Xu, but he hoped that emperor Xu would return triumphantly.


    After leaving the Imperial City, Emperor Xu first went back to his house, packed up his salutes, and then set out to leave Peshawar City, and began to go north to the direction of Lanshi city.


    When Emperor Xu went to the north, the news of Peshawar came out almost at the same time. It was just that the people who delivered the news went to the North much faster than emperor Xu and sent it to Wang Yue first.


    Wang Yue received the letter and sent it to Zhang Xiu.


    After Zhang Xiu finished reading it, he quickly scanned the information and saw that Indra led 200000 troops, with no effort, to seize the city of Peshawar and obtain the power of Kushan.


    Indra has enough strength.


    Before that, after the death of vesudeva, the princes in Peshawar fought for power and profit. These people could not resist Indra. If Indra had led his army northward to Peshawar at that time, he would have captured Peshawar.


    But Indra goes straight to the city of Lanshi in the north mountain.


    This is the battle with Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu learns that Indra has become king of Kushan, she doesn''t take any action. She just orders the royal guards under Wang Yue to continue to inquire about the city of Peshawar and keep staring at everything in Peshawar.Report as soon as you have news.


    Today, Zhang Xiu has been busy with the reform of LAN''s city.


    Many local people in LAN''s city were appointed as officials to enrich the city master''s residence.


    More and more people are able to show their talents.


    The development of blue city is also booming.


    In particular, no matter anyunga or anbedar, they have been glowing rapidly and have begun to exert their talents and have made great achievements.


    On this day, inside the Lord''s mansion.


    Zhang Xiu is in a hurry, but she is playing chess with Guo Jia.


    Instead of playing go, they played chess.


    You come and I go in chess. It''s a lot of fun.


    Guo Jia said that one of the cannons flew over and said, "Your Majesty, the situation in LAN''s city has returned to normal. Now the city is on the right track. All you need is a city master to dispatch everything. As long as the new Lord of the city can follow the policy set by his majesty and continue to deepen, he will surely be able to achieve great results. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "before that, I had arranged for the royal guards to send letters back and let the cabinet arrange people to come to guishuang to be the leader of Lanshi city. I think it''s going to be here by now. "


    Guo Jia said, "does your majesty have a candidate for the new city leader?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "I just made a request. I must be competent for the position of city master of LAN''s city. As for the selection of specific candidates, it is the matter of the cabinet and the Ministry of officials. It is expected that a reliable person will be arranged in the rear. "


    "What your majesty said is very true," Guo said


    Zhang Xiu picked up a Mei Ma and landed directly on Guo Jia''s gun. She ate the gun and said with a smile, "fengxiao, you should pay more attention. A cannon was stolen, and the one you have left is much less powerful. "


    Guo Jia said: "I just let your majesty do it."


    "General!"


    Guo Jia twisted the remaining guns and began to bombard Zhang Xiu''s old Wang.


    Zhang Xiu taxi in the hands of a step up, blocking the artillery bombardment, it is very easy.


    Two people play chess, you come and I go very fast.


    While they were playing chess, Wang Yue came again and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from the imperial court. The imperial court has arranged for the new city leader to come to his post. The messenger said that he encountered sandstorm on the road and delayed some time. It is expected that now, the new Lord of LAN''s city from the imperial court has arrived in LAN''s city and will come to see his majesty. "


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, another attendant came in.


    After standing still, the servant said, "Your Majesty, there is a man from outside the mansion. His name is Sima lang. he came from Chang''an and was ordered to come to take up his post as the leader of LAN''s city."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows. She was surprised, but she also felt that it was reasonable.


    Before that, Sima Lang had always been the prefect of Hongnong.


    Sima Lang''s achievements in these years are very good.


    Today, it is necessary for the imperial court to dispatch the people of the Malang kingdom to the city. In fact, in the territory of Kushan, the Lord of LAN''s city was also a feudal official.


    Sima Lang''s coming to LAN''s city is not only a test for Sima Lang, but also an opportunity for him. As long as Sima Lang seizes this opportunity and enters the cabinet in the future, it is just around the corner.


    After all, it''s far away from Kushan, so it''s easy to make contributions.

 Chapter 1367

    Zhang Xiu said, "please come in!"


    "Yes


    The servant got the order and turned to inform.


    After a while, Sima Lang entered. Today''s Sima Lang is much older than before. After all, Sima Lang is now in his early 40s. He is not a young man, but a young man with rich experience.


    This is the best time.


    Sima Lang bowed and said, "I''ll see you, my Lord."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Boda, sit down!"


    "Thank you


    After thanking him, Sima Lang lifted his robe and sat down beside Zhang Xiu and Guo Jia.


    Zhang Xiu no longer plays chess with Guo Jia. She stares at Sima Lang with a solemn look and says: "let you be the leader of the city of Lan Shi and take charge of the city of Lan Shi. What do you think of that? "


    Sima Lang replied: "tell your majesty, after getting the task of the cabinet, I have started to inquire about the situation of Lan Shi City and think about the governance measures of Lan Shi City."


    "During this period of time, when I entered the city of Lanshi, I was also inquiring about the situation of Lanshi."


    "In my opinion, the most important thing in LAN''s city is to promote the abolition of caste system. Although this caste system has been abolished by the government, in fact, it still remains. Even the place is not clean and needs to be further promoted. "


    "Secondly, it is the unification of the city. Promote the unification of Lanshi City, so that all Kushan people and Qin people in Lanshi city speak the same words, respect the same customs, and follow the same goal. Since then, there have been no guishuang people in LAN''s city, only Qin people, only the people of Da Qin. "


    "At the end of the day, it''s the prosperity of the city."


    "All kinds of measures should be taken to stimulate the business of LAN''s city, whether it is business or agriculture, so that Lan''s city can present a prosperous scene."


    Sima Lang talked bluntly and said: "these three points are the recent ruling objectives of the minister."


    "Good, good, good!"


    After listening, Zhang Xiu said three good words in succession.


    Sima Lang''s ruling plan can be said to be deeply rooted in Zhang Xiu''s heart. Only in this way can we really change everything in blue city. Such a plan is agreed by Zhang Xiu.


    Now that Sima Lang has a complete plan, Zhang Xiu can rest assured.


    If Sima Lang takes over, Zhang Xiu will be ready to go south. Just in LAN''s city, Zhang Xiu is not satisfied. Zhang Xiu''s goal is to capture the whole Kushan and bring it under control.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not leave immediately.


    Zhang Xiu first explained to Sima Lang the current situation of LAN''s city, and then arranged for people to send Kunda and the rest to the city master''s residence to introduce Sima Lang to the public.


    Sima Lang is very rich in both means and experience.


    Zhang Xiu handed over the matter to Sima lang. when Sima Lang saw the crowd, he quickly arranged everything in his way, and everything was very well organized.


    In the evening.


    Sima Lang arranged all the things well, then waved his hand to let the people back down.


    Zhang Xiu is also ready to leave.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a servant came in and reported: "Your Majesty, there is a man named Dixu outside the city master''s residence. This person said that he sent a special mission to Lanshi city to see his Majesty on the order of Indra, king of kusana. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised.


    Emperor Xu is here.


    You know, the emperor must be known as the wise man of Kushan and the chief military adviser of Indra.


    Now, Emperor Xu even sent an envoy.


    Zhang Xiu said, "please go to the hall!"


    "Here it is


    The attendant was ordered to turn around and go out. However, when the attendant just came to the gate of the yard, a light suddenly flashed in Zhang Xiu''s mind. He had an idea and said, "wait a minute!"


    The attendant turned and looked at Zhang Xiu, waiting for her command.


    Zhang Xiu said: "go to tell emperor Xu that I''m very busy. I''ll summon him after I''m busy."


    "Here it is


    Valet de Ling, turn to inform.


    Guo Jia laughed and said, "the reason why your majesty is hanging emperor''s whiskers is to see what the emperor''s whiskers have in mind. If emperor Xu had a plot, he would have to wait all the time. If emperor Xu has no plan, and his majesty is hanging on him like this, then he will naturally leave. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "if you know me, you should be filial! Come on, let''s go to the barracks. This city Lord''s mansion is now given to bodha. Next, Burda will be in charge of everything in blue city. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia answered immediately.


    Upon hearing this, Sima Lang said, "Your Majesty, you can continue to stay in the Lord''s mansion."


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "it''s unnecessary."


    Sima Lang changed his words and said again, "Your Majesty, you are going out now. Emperor Xu is also outside the house. As soon as you went out, did you run into him? "Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "I''ll go through the back door."


    Sima Lang raised his eyebrows and said, "but what about Emperor Xu?"


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "when the emperor can''t help but ask the porter again, he can tell him that I have something urgent to go to the barracks, and then I will deal with government affairs in the barracks."


    "I understand


    Sima Lang answered immediately.


    His heart is to mourn for the emperor, this person must be played bad. It''s not a good thing to be sent to Lancaster city. Sima Lang didn''t know about the emperor''s beard, so he didn''t pay attention to the emperor''s beard either. After Zhang Xiu and his party left, they began to live directly, and then began to browse the materials of LAN''s city.


    To make the people in LAN''s city convinced, it is not only by experience and qualifications, but also by their own efforts.


    To be able to understand the situation of the city of Lancaster.


    When Sima Lang was always busy, but outside the Lord''s mansion, Emperor Xu was waiting.


    Previously, the emperor had to ask people to report the time. Although the sky was approaching evening, it was not too late. But now, the setting sun has all set, the darkness has come, and even the whole city master''s mansion has lit up the lanterns.


    The yellow light dispelled the darkness.


    Emperor Xu is still outside the mansion.


    Now, he really wants to leave directly, but since he has been informed to see him, I''m afraid it will be very difficult for him to complete this mission when he thinks of leaving now.


    Therefore, Emperor must still stay.


    However, with the passage of time, the expression on emperor Xu''s face changed from leisurely at the beginning to solemn and urgent now. It was already so dark, but there was still no news in the Lord''s mansion.


    This made emperor Xu very anxious.


    If it wasn''t for emperor Xu, who needed to complete the mission of envoy and paralyze Zhang Xiu, he would not stay. What''s more, he took the initiative to make this mission. Under such circumstances, even if emperor Xu met with difficulties, he had to finish it. He could never give up halfway.


    Emperor Xu is still waiting.


    As time goes by, it''s very late.


    Emperor Xu couldn''t wait. He was worried that Zhang Xiu had forgotten his request. So he went forward and looked at the porter standing at the gate of the city Lord''s mansion. He went forward and said, "please go and tell me. Emperor Xu wants to see his majesty."


    The porter took a look at the emperor''s beard. A trace of pity passed in his eyes. He said with regret, "Your Majesty is not in the Lord''s mansion now."


    Emperor must say: "where has the emperor gone down?"


    The porter replied, "Your Majesty has gone to the barracks now. Now his majesty is dealing with military affairs in the barracks. It is said that there is something wrong. "


    Emperor must hear, frown.


    Zhang Xiu went to the barracks.


    But he had been at the gate of the Lord''s mansion, and from beginning to end, he had never seen Zhang Xiu come out. The only explanation is that Zhang Xiu left from the back door of the city master''s mansion. But Zhang Xiuming leaves from the back door, but does not leave from the front door. It can be seen that Zhang Xiuming deliberately hangs him out, but does not see him.


    This is the real intention of Zhang Xiu.


    Emperor must guess Zhang Xiu''s idea, in the heart suddenly thought of a possibility, Zhang Xiu has decided to send troops south, so just don''t plan to meet him?


    If so, it''s not good for Indra.


    Because now Indra is still gathering more noble forces. Only by delaying time can Indra win a chance to defeat Zhang Xiu.


    This is what the emperor needs to do.

 Chapter 1368

    If emperor wants to succeed and return triumphantly, he must endure Zhang Xiu''s hostility. Even if Zhang Xiu was hanging him, he had to bear it. Even the emperor had to see Zhang Xiu to complete the mission.


    But now it''s evening. It''s impossible to meet Zhang Xiu now. So emperor Xu simply found an inn and had a rest in it.


    Nothing happened overnight, and the next morning.


    The emperor must have had breakfast early, and then went to the barracks in the city.


    When Emperor Xu arrived at the barracks, it was only midnight.


    At this time, the morning sun just rose. Today''s weather, the morning sun, basking in the body warm, so emperor must also don''t feel uncomfortable.


    Emperor Xu stepped forward and came to the soldiers near the gate of the camp. He said, "at the command of Indra, king of guishuang, I am sending a special mission to Lanshi city to see his majesty. Please inform me."


    When the soldier got the order, he called at once.


    In the big account of the Chinese army.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news that emperor Xu had come to see her, she sneered in her heart. Emperor Xu was quite active. Early in the morning, she came to the military camp to see her again. It seems that something really happened.


    Guo Jia happened to be next to Zhang Xiu. He said with a smile, "Your Majesty, even if we ignore emperor Xu, it doesn''t matter. In particular, the emperor had to come to see him twice. It can be seen that this time, it must have been the guishuang''s plan. So now, just play with Dixu. This is the sage of Kushan. It''s very interesting to play with him. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "that''s the meaning. At the beginning, Emperor Xu was very arrogant in Tianmen Mountain. This time, if you don''t play with emperor Xu, it''s a pity. But you can also take this opportunity to test emperor Xu again. "


    Guo Jia asked, "how does your majesty intend to test it?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "in fact, it''s very simple to ask the soldiers to send a letter to Emperor Xu, saying that he offended me in Tianmen Mountain, which made me very dissatisfied. He wants to come to see me, let himself go back to the inn, ready to take the thorns. Otherwise, nothing will be said! "


    After hearing this, Guo Jia said with a smile, "Your Majesty, don''t you worry. If this kind of trial irritates emperor Xu, he will no longer consider the mission of sending an envoy and turn around and leave."


    Zhang Xiu said: "if so, it doesn''t matter. Anyway, as you said, even ignoring the emperor''s beard has no effect. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged to go down, the soldier immediately went to inform.


    After a while, the soldier went to the gate of the camp, relayed Zhang Xiu''s arrangement, and finally said, "Your Majesty said that if you don''t apologize, you can talk about everything."


    Brush!


    Emperor Xu had a solemn look on his face.


    He frowned.


    He really didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu, the emperor of Qin Dynasty, would play such a small trick.


    It was a deliberate humiliation.


    Emperor Xu''s heart, at this moment, is about to be unbearable. He feels as if there is a rush of fire in his heart, which makes him have the idea of leaving. But who is he? He is emperor Xu and the sage of Kushan. He said that if he wants to send an envoy to Daqin, he must succeed and complete the mission. He can''t give up halfway.


    So emperor must be angry, and then swallow the anger, gradually calm down.


    Everything, calm back.


    Emperor must bow his hand to thank the soldiers, turn away and return to the inn. When he returned to the inn, he sat cross legged with a thoughtful look on his face. Because if you really want to plead guilty, Emperor Xu can''t do it. His heart, still tangled, still hesitating.


    Previously, outside the military camp, the emperor had to think that he had to complete the task, so he stayed.


    But now he hesitated.


    Because if he really acted, he would have to leave all his dignity behind. Even his own dignity would be trampled by Zhang Xiu and trampled into the soil.


    This is what emperor Xu does not want.


    However, Emperor Xu praised Haikou, even he was the sage of Kushan.


    Such an identity and situation prompted emperor Xu''s heart, even if he was unwilling.


    Therefore, the emperor has been struggling.


    When he was in Peshawar City, Indra was faced with the choice of becoming emperor or king. Now when he comes to Lanshi City, he is faced with the choice of whether to see Zhang Xiu. If he wants to see Zhang Xiu, he has to plead guilty. If he doesn''t go to see Zhang Xiu, he can immediately return to Peshawar city.


    But emperor must''s heart, don''t want to leave.


    "Hoo!"


    Emperor Xu took a long breath.


    He has made up his mind.


    He thought of his words to comfort Indra. Even if Gou Jian could bear humiliation, so could he. As long as he can hold Zhang Xiu back and buy time for guishuang, even if he suffers, it''s worth it.


    If Indra were here, he would not agree. Because Indra didn''t like it very much in the beginning. Now, the emperor has to compromise. In other words, Indra will definitely let the emperor go not far away.Emperor must stand up and ask people to prepare Vitex.


    Now, it''s near noon.


    Instead of going at once, he waited for lunch before going out with the thorns on his back. But when the emperor had to go out, the sun in the sky had all disappeared into the clouds, and the sky became dark.


    The sky was dark as if it was going to rain.


    Emperor Xu looked up at the sky and found that the sky was just like the situation he was facing. Now his heart is also full of haze.


    However, Emperor Xu was determined to go.


    Emperor Xu took a carriage to the camp. When he arrived outside the camp, he got out of the carriage and went to the gate of the camp. He said again, "please inform your Majesty the emperor of Qin. Emperor Xu, the envoy of Kushan, has come here to take the trouble."


    The soldier immediately turned to inform.


    When Zhang Xiu got the news, she looked at Guo Jia and said with a smile, "it seems that this emperor Xu really has ulterior motives. At least, there is a plot. Otherwise, the emperor will not really go back to carry thorns. This kind of ceremony, even humble practice, has exposed the emperor''s intention of this encounter. "


    Guo Jia said: "what your majesty said is very true. The emperor must have a unique plan for this encounter."


    After a pause, Guo Jia said, "does your majesty see him?"


    Zhang Xiu raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and said: "today''s emperor Xu has come to plead guilty with the thorns on his back. Step by step, he is constantly trampling on his own dignity and weakening his courage. If so, try again. "


    Guo Jia asked, "how does your majesty intend to test it?"


    Zhang xiudao said: "this time, the emperor must kneel down and plead guilty. As long as he satisfies me, I will naturally meet him. If a wise man like Dixu is willing to kneel down, then we can know that Dixu''s plot is not small. Moreover, if you humiliate emperor Xu, you can show the majesty of our Qin army to the army. "


    Guo Jia stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "that''s right. It''s a good chance."


    Zhang Xiu looked at the soldier and nodded.


    After understanding the intention, the soldier turned and stepped down.


    After a while, the soldier came to the gate of the camp. He looked at the emperor''s beard, and there was a look of pity on his face. The emperor had to come to see his majesty as an envoy of Kushan. Unfortunately, his Majesty was not seen at all.

 Chapter 1369

    Emperor Xu came forward and asked, "is Emperor Qin willing to see me?"


    The soldier said, "emperor Xu, your majesty has ordered that you have offended your majesty. Since you are pleading guilty, you must sincerely plead guilty and kneel down outside the camp. As long as your majesty is satisfied, I will meet you. "


    Boom!!


    There was thunder in emperor Xu''s mind.


    There was a momentary void in his mind.


    Zhang Xiu deceives others too much!


    Last night, he went to the city Lord''s residence in person, intending to meet Zhang Xiu. But in the end, Zhang Xiu avoided it. Even, Zhang Xiu left from the small door and went directly to the barracks to avoid emperor Xu.


    Early this morning, he came to see him in person, but the problem is that Zhang Xiu still avoided seeing him, saying that he would be punished. The emperor had to go back to his inn. After a long struggle, he finally chose to plead guilty.


    He is now pleading guilty at the gate of the camp, but Zhang Xiu is still in trouble and asks him to kneel down to plead guilty.


    Step by step, he was constantly humiliated.


    Constantly bullying him.


    Emperor must big sleeve a brush, anger is about to spray out. But when he saw the look of the soldier, he didn''t pay any attention to him. If he wants to leave now, everything will fall short. The humiliation he was subjected to was wasted.


    This is what emperor Xu does not want to see.


    Emperor must''s heart, incomparable resentment Zhang Xiu, want to kill Zhang Xiu immediately. But the problem is, no matter how angry he is, no matter how unwilling he is, he has to face the present situation.


    Did he leave?


    Or kneel down and plead guilty?


    These two choices, once again placed in front of emperor Xu, made emperor Xu fall into a difficult choice. And the choice as like as two peas in the past.


    He turned to leave, that can ignore, but such a result, he is to go back. If he doesn''t leave, he has to kneel down and plead guilty.


    Either way, it''s hard to choose.


    This is a dilemma.


    Boom!!!


    All of a sudden, the dark sky, a burst of thunder. A thunder burst, thunderbolt and lightning appeared across the sky, dispelling the dark sky, making the whole world become extremely bright.


    Overcast weather, also began to wind.


    "Tick! Tick


    A drop of rain, suddenly, from the air began to drip down.


    Patter, patter!


    Gradually, the rain became dense, especially the rain like pouring rain. The rain continued to fall, drenching the emperor''s body, a moment of effort, has been the emperor''s clothes wet.


    He stood outside the camp like a drowned chicken.


    On the contrary, the soldiers in the camp are already wearing hats and coir raincoats, so even if the heavy rain falls, it has no effect on the soldiers standing guard at the gate of the camp.


    Only emperor Xu, who is old, has to bear the rain at this time.


    Fortunately, it''s May and June.


    Rain on the body, do not feel cold, but rather comfortable. But even if the rain fell on the body, Emperor must have been like a drowned chicken, the whole person is extremely embarrassed.


    Gray hair, because of the rain, scattered in the corner of the eye ear.


    His clothes, close to the body.


    At this moment, Emperor Xu was very sad.


    As the sage of Kushan, he is respected by everyone in the whole Kushan territory. Wherever he goes, he is respected. But now, outside Zhang Xiu''s barracks, all his aura has faded, and all his knowledge is useless and useless.


    On the contrary, he was extremely embarrassed.


    When Emperor Xu was still in a difficult choice, Zhang Xiu was in the big account of the Chinese army.


    Zhang Xiu also heard the sound of rain falling outside the camp. He stood up, went to the gate of the camp, raised the curtain of the camp, looked at the scene of water mist splashing outside, and said with a smile: "fengxiao, do you think emperor Xu is still outside the camp?"


    Guo Jia said, "maybe it is."


    After a pause, Guo Jia said with a straight face: "when we deal with emperor Xu in this way, and humiliate emperor Xu, there are still some sad feelings in the minister''s heart. After all, I am also a counsellor. But their respective positions are different, so even if emperor Xu is in trouble, it is impossible for us to be kind to him. Because the kindness to Emperor Xu is the cruelty to us. "


    "That''s right!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and said, "the emperor must be the enemy. Since he is the enemy, he can''t have pity. Because once you have compassion for the enemy, the only victims are your own people. "


    "Come on, let''s go to the gate of the camp and have a look."


    As soon as Zhang Xiu waved, someone brought an umbrella for her and rolled up her trouser legs.


    Zhang Xiu walked out with her umbrella.


    Guo Jia also walked behind.The rain continued to fall, rain splashed on the surface of the umbrella, are crackling. We can imagine how much rain it is today. Not long after, Zhang Xiu and Guo Jia and others arrived at the gate of the camp and saw the emperor''s beard standing in the rain, which had been drenched. At this moment, the emperor''s beard no longer had the demeanor of a counselor.


    It''s just a drowned chicken.


    And now, Emperor Xu has not made a decision.


    Zhang Xiu holding an umbrella, looking at the rain emperor must, did not speak, still waiting quietly.


    Emperor Xu saw Zhang Xiu.


    Even under the continuous rain, the sight of Zhang Xiu is a little blurred. However, Emperor Xu can know Zhang Xiu even if he turns to ashes. He saw Zhang Xiu, heart rose a trace of hope, in case Zhang Xiu see his miserable, want to see him?


    A moment later, Emperor Xu''s heart was cold.


    Because Zhang Xiu with Guo Jia, quietly standing in the camp, silent.


    This kind of Zhang Xiu obviously comes to see jokes. It is impossible to save the emperor from fire and water. This kind of Zhang Xiu came to trample him and trample him into the soil, making it difficult for him to turn over completely.


    Zhang Xiu is waiting for him to kneel down.


    "Gudong!"


    Emperor Xu swallowed a mouthful of saliva.


    He raised his hand, wiped the rain on his face, and looked at Zhang Xiu again. Up to now, there is nothing difficult in emperor Xu''s heart, because at this point, he has been extremely humble and no longer proud.


    In his heart, there was only one thought.


    That is to finish the task.


    "Plop!"


    Emperor must kneel down directly, kneeling in the mud.


    At this moment, the dignity of emperor Xu was completely put down.


    In order to complete the task, Emperor must have put down everything. He restrained all his pride, knelt humbly outside the camp, saluted respectfully, and said, "emperor Kushan, meet your Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    When Zhang Xiu saw such a noble, a smile rose from the corner of her mouth.


    Emperor Xu actually knelt down.


    So heavy rain, the emperor must finally kneel on the ground, the inner emotion is difficult to cover up. Under such circumstances, Zhang Xiu can foresee that emperor Xu, who came to LAN''s city this time, must have planned something.

 Chapter 1370

    Clattering rain, is still the next non-stop.


    Zhang Xiu is holding an umbrella, but the rain on the edge of the oil paper umbrella is already dripping into a line and flowing down. Under such a heavy rain, Zhang Xiu stood in the rain, feeling that her trouser legs had been wet by the rain, and even had a wet feeling on her body.


    Can imagine, was drenched by the rain emperor must, is how embarrassed.


    Zhang Xiu looked at the emperor Xu kneeling on the muddy ground. For the first time, his heart was a trace of killing. The reason is very simple. Emperor Xu, in order to achieve his goal, does not hesitate to sacrifice his self-esteem and trample on himself. It is extremely terrible for such a person to do anything to achieve his goal.


    However, after the intention of killing rose, she was pressed by Zhang Xiu in a twinkling of an eye.


    He is not afraid of a mere emperor''s beard.


    It is not necessary to kill emperor Xu under such circumstances.


    After watching for a while, Zhang Xiu turned around and said, "take emperor Xu to the camp, change his clothes and bring him to see me."


    "Yes


    One side of the soldiers have to order, immediately to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu returns with Guo Jia. As she walks, Zhang Xiu says: "fengxiao, we have been fighting for many years. It seems that it''s the first time that we meet such a person as Dixu. This person is not simple."


    Guo Jia said confidently: "Your Majesty, Emperor Xu, even though he is so old, he still has such tenacity. It''s really not easy. But that''s the end of it. Because today''s Kushan, after the emergence of Wulei city and Lanshi City, the foundation of the whole Kushan has begun to turbulence. "


    After a pause, Guo Jia said: "if the noble system of Kushan collapses, then Kushan, even those who have no plans, can not turn the tide. Today''s Kushan is just surviving. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "what fengxiao said is very true. In front of the general situation, personal strength is very weak. Even if the emperor has to have means, it is difficult to stop him after all. "


    He and Guo Jia returned to the Chinese army.


    Now sitting in the camp, listening to the sound of clattering, but also comfortable.


    Time is not long, the emperor must be brought up.


    At this time, Emperor Xu changed his clothes and dried his hair. Although there was still moisture, he didn''t feel wet. After he entered, he bowed to Zhang Xiu and said solemnly, "the Minister of guishuang must meet his Majesty the emperor of Qin."


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "sit down!"


    "Thank you


    Emperor Xu''s face, with a faint smile.


    It seemed as if the previous humiliation had not happened.


    After he was seated, the emperor took the initiative to say, "Emperor Qin, the reason why I am going to LAN''s city this time is not for other reasons, but for peace. Today, Indra, king of Kushan, is willing to admit that Wulei city and Lanshi city belong to Daqin. How does the emperor of Qin decide that the two sides rule by demarcation and each governs its own place? "


    When Zhang Xiu heard the speech, she narrowed her eyes.


    Emperor Xu came to seek peace.


    This made Zhang Xiu very surprised, because emperor Xu was not a person who didn''t take revenge. Even Indra is not a good person. It is impossible to forget the hatred but ignore the past hatred.


    Zhang Xiu said: "emperor Xu, because Tuoluo is in charge of Kushan, he becomes the king of Kushan. But how can I believe that Indra really has the sincerity to stop fighting. How can I believe that? "


    The emperor said, "Emperor Qin, since I came as an envoy, I came with sincerity. It is because of sincerity that there is a scene of pleading guilty. Can''t the emperor of Qin see my sincerity? "


    "I can''t see it!"


    Zhang Jingdi shook his head and said, "I hope you are still guilty in the heavy rain. When you kneel down, you can only say that your emperor must finish it. However, Indra, as the Lord of Kushan, must stop fighting with me and cease fighting with Daqin to seek peace. It is definitely impossible to rely on one word. "


    Emperor Xu''s heart jumped.


    Zhang Xiu is really not simple, he even thinks that Zhang Xiu must have some guess, will say such words.


    The emperor had to take a deep breath and said, "Emperor Qin, since he asked for peace, I have full sincerity in respect of guishuang. This time I went north, it also brought the sincerity of my king. "


    Before he came here, Emperor Xu had asked Indra for instructions. When it comes to terms, Emperor Xu can make a decision in one word.


    Everything is up to the emperor.


    After all, such conditions are only verbal.


    Not really.


    The emperor must look solemn and solemnly, and said: "Emperor Qin, I have great sincerity in guishuang. As long as the emperor of Qin agrees to a truce, our king is willing to send his sister to the state of Qin to make peace. This is our king''s sincerity. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    Laughter is full of irony.


    Laughter, full of disdain.


    For another emperor, he might like to make peace. He thinks that Indra''s sending his sister to make peace is a matter of face for the state of Qin. But Zhang Xiu has no feeling for such things and doesn''t like such things. The most important thing is that if Zhang Xiu accepts Kushan''s marriage, in fact, Zhang Xiu has nothing.This is a matter of face.


    Actual analysis, there is no benefit, so Zhang Xiu is not willing to.


    The emperor must see Zhang Xiu''s appearance and frown. He must know that the emperor of a country does not mean to marry his sister down, but to send her to make peace with his relatives. This is a matter of great loss of face.


    In the eyes of emperor Xu, this is the biggest insult to Kushan.


    It''s also the one that makes Zhang Xiu happy.


    But emperor Xu didn''t expect that Zhang Xiu was ironic. He was surprised, so he had to cheer up and said again, "why does Emperor Qin laugh? You know, it''s my greatest sincerity to send the Pearl of Kushan to make peace with you. "


    "No, I don''t need it!"


    Zhang Xiu big sleeve a brush, said: "the so-called harmony, nothing more than face.". I don''t need to humiliate Indra. What I need is real interests. Emperor Xu, you are a wise man. You should understand what I mean. If Indra wants to ask for peace, give him real benefits. Otherwise, nothing will be said. "


    In fact, in Zhang Xiu''s heart, she was not willing to accept the peace talks at all.


    Zhang Xiu''s goal is to sweep away the precious frost.


    It is Zhang Xiu''s ambition to bring the whole Kushan into the control of Daqin. The reason why he and Emperor Xu are lying to each other is just to try out for a while to see what tricks emperor Xu is playing.


    Emperor must listen to Zhang Xiu''s words, he did not guess the true intention of Zhang Xiu, but also successfully confused by Zhang Xiu.


    The emperor must consider himself a wise man.


    Therefore, when Zhang Xiu said that emperor Xu should understand the meaning of Zhang Xiu, he thought that Zhang Xiu was a very realistic person, not just a person who could be sent by marriage.


    It has to be real interests.


    It has to be a full benefit.


    Emperor Xu suddenly thought of a good way to delay his time. He immediately said, "Your Majesty, I''m willing to make peace with you. I''ve given my utmost sincerity. However, the emperor does not want to accept it, so I have no choice. In that case, I can only return to Peshawar for a while, despise my king, and then come back to the city of Lanchester to reply to his majesty. "


    This is the intention of emperor Xu.


    He went back to Peshawar from the city of Lange, and then entered Lange from Peshawar. This time, it would take countless time.


    This is the best way to procrastinate.


    As long as Zhang Xiu agrees, then everything will be done.


    There is no need for a promise.


    He had been outside the barracks and suffered a lot of humiliation. Up to now, he has finally found an opportunity to delay. Even such a delay means nothing.

 Chapter 1371

    Zhang Xiu looked aggressive and said, "emperor Xu, I won''t wait. Since you want to return to Peshawar and despise Indra, I will send troops to the south at the same time. You can rest assured that as long as Indra gives you the right conditions, even if my army reaches Peshawar, it will not attack Peshawar and will choose to withdraw. "


    It''s a lie.


    Zhang Xiu is deliberately perfunctory, but also to test the emperor''s intention.


    The emperor must be surprised.


    If Zhang Xiu really sent troops to the South immediately, even if Indra could resist with today''s forces, it would be extremely difficult for Indra to defeat Zhang Xiu''s army. Because all the way south, all the way down, Zhang Xiu will destroy countless forces, which will weaken the power of Indra.


    What the emperor wanted was to beat the Qin army in one go and get revenge.


    Only in this way can the emperor be shamed.


    Emperor Xu was seldom humiliated in his life, but today everything in LAN''s city is deeply imprinted in his mind. He can''t forget it. He has to avenge himself.


    Therefore, we still have to delay.


    The emperor must take a deep breath, with a soft smile on his face, and said, "Emperor Qin, I will return to ask my king, and then give him a clear answer. Whether it''s war or peace, it''s up to you. However, before that, the emperor of Qin was asked to pacify the Qin army. After all, if the two armies fight, there will be countless casualties. If peace can be achieved between the two sides without harming the soldiers or causing casualties, why not


    Zhang Xiu said: "my consideration is that Indra suffered such a huge loss in Tianmen Mountain. Is Indra willing to ask for peace from my Daqin? Especially because he is now the king of Kushan. As the head of a country, he suffered such losses, but he didn''t get everything back. Is he willing


    "Nature is willing!"


    Emperor Xu said without hesitation: "guishuang had experienced the defeat of the great emperor weisudiva before, and had continuously damaged the army. The most important thing is that in Peshawar, there are princes fighting for power and profits, which has damaged countless officials and soldiers. "


    "It''s a great loss for Kushan. Today''s Kushan is said to be able to fight against the great Qin Dynasty, but if it does, it will surely bring countless losses. "


    "I don''t want to see such loss. Considering the interests of the two countries and the thousands of people, our king is willing to seek peace from the state of Qin. "


    Emperor must say: "this is the reason why our king asked for peace. Please learn from it."


    Zhang Xiu listens to the words of emperor Xu, how all feel, Emperor Xu''s words are full of perfunctory, even emperor Xu''s words inside and outside, are all false lies, completely out of tune.


    But Zhang Xiu didn''t say much. She said, "emperor Xu, this time you come here, it''s a waste of time. As the teacher of Indra, your status is no less than that of Seneca. If you don''t even have the right to make a decision, it''s disappointing. If so, I will still choose to go south. "


    Emperor Xu''s heart clapped.


    If Zhang Xiu really wants to go south now, will all he has done be in vain?


    He was humble in the dust.


    He is humble to the core.


    He put all the dignity, all away, is to complete the task, and then delay Zhang Xiu south time. Now if Zhang Xiu insists on going south, it is equal to his failure.


    Emperor Xu sighed: "it''s really tiring to deal with Emperor Qin. To tell you the truth, I don''t want to go to the north as an envoy, but the king insists on naming names, so I can only go to the north as an envoy. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "emperor Xu, tell me, what are your conditions?"


    Emperor Xu replied, "as long as Emperor Qin is willing to accept the proposal of a truce, then I can decide the following two things."


    Zhang Xiu said, "which two things?"


    Emperor Xu replied, "the first thing I can do is to admit that Wulei city and Lanshi city are under the rule of the great Qin Dynasty and that they belong to the legal status of the great Qin Dynasty."


    Zhang Xiu said with disdain: "after I have captured Wulei city and Lanshi City, I don''t need you to admit it. As long as it is under my rule, it will be the territory of Daqin. "


    Emperor must say: "but after I accept it, there will be no dispute. Moreover, such recognition is also conducive to peace talks between the two sides. "


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said: "the second thing is that I can make decisions. As long as I am a businessman of the Qin Dynasty, I can enter the territory of Kushan to do business, and I am exempt from taxes. This alone is the biggest concession. "


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was quite shocked.


    In order to make peace, the emperor had to exempt the merchants from taxes. Such a condition seems simple, but in fact, it is quite harsh. Because exempting the merchants from taxes in the Qin state is tantamount to letting the merchants in the Qin Dynasty grow up, which will eventually damage the interests of the merchants in his own country and further damage the economic development of Kushan.


    This is tantamount to humiliation.


    Zhang Xiu is very curious, the emperor must do so behind the intention.But at this point, Zhang Xiu also knows that this is the bottom line. If Zhang Xiu doesn''t accept such a condition, then emperor Xu can only leave in dismay.


    However, it was impossible for Zhang Xiu to refuse emperor Xu when she did the whole set of drama. She said, "emperor Xu, I have agreed to the terms you mentioned. When you return to Peshawar, you immediately ask Indra to declare that Lan''s city and Wulei''s city belong to the state of Qin. In addition, a notice was issued to exempt the merchants of the Qin Dynasty from paying taxes in Kushan. "


    Emperor must a listen, immediately relieved.


    It''s done!


    As long as Zhang Xiu agrees to seek peace, Zhang Xiu will not go south for the time being, which means that Indra has enough time to gather the whole Kushan aristocratic forces.


    According to Emperor Xu''s plan, the troops of Kushan will at least exceed five or six hundred thousand in the end. Even, the number of troops would be more than that of the Qin army.


    In the end, Zhang Xiu will be defeated.


    This is also the reason why emperor Xu''s demands and demands of Jiji camp were delayed. Only by delaying time can we gather so many troops.


    The emperor must promise: "please rest assured, your majesty. I will return to Kushan in the shortest time. It will also urge the king to fulfill the agreement in the shortest possible time. "


    Zhang xiudao: "I''ll wait and see."


    The emperor must bow himself and say, "if so, I''ll leave."


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s raining hard outside. Emperor Xu, you can wait for the rain to stop before you leave."


    But emperor Xu shook his head and said, "no, it''s about the safety of the two countries. What''s rain. I must return as soon as possible, so that He Ping and Emperor Qin of the two countries can bid farewell! "


    As soon as he saluted, he turned and walked out.


    For emperor Xu, he doesn''t want to stay, because Zhang Xiu is a very dangerous person. If he stays for a short time, Zhang Xiu suddenly changes his mind, he will be in danger.


    He can''t believe Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, walk slowly without seeing you off."


    When Zhang Xiu waved her hand, her own soldiers sent the emperor to leave. When the emperor had to leave the camp, Zhang Xiu looked down at Guo Jia and said, "fengxiao, why do you say that the emperor must strive for peace in the camp and even be willing to offer conditions for humiliating his country?"

 Chapter 1372

    Guo Jia stroked his moustache under his jaw, and his bright eyes sparkled with wisdom. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, there are only three possibilities for the emperor to make peace."


    Zhang Xiu leaned forward slightly and said, "what are the three possibilities?"


    Guo Jia replied: "the first possibility is that even if Indra becomes the king of Kushan in today''s Kushan country. But in Kushan, there is also the power to disobey Indra. Because of these people''s rebellion, Indra was unable to divide his forces against Daqin. Even Indra had to ask his majesty for peace in order to ensure the security of the north. This is the first possibility. It is caused by internal reasons. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is the truth."


    Guo Jia continued: "the second possibility is that today''s Indra, who has become the king of Kushan, is attached to power and has lost his enterprising spirit. He became king of Kushan. He only wanted to stabilize his present power and was not willing to fight again. Therefore, to seek peace from his majesty is to ensure that his current power is stable and will not be affected. "


    "It''s possible, but it''s unlikely," Zhang said. According to our information, Indra has always been taught by Emperor Xu. He is very tough and capable. It is impossible for him to lose his enterprising spirit and give up revenge on us just because he became the king of Kushan. "


    Guo Jia laughed and continued: "the third possibility is that emperor Xu''s pursuit of peace is actually just to delay time and buy time for Indra."


    "As long as Indra has enough time, he can gather more strength to fight with his majesty."


    "After all, today''s Kushan is weakened, and there is still a certain distance to fight against his majesty. Therefore, Indra sent the emperor to the north to show weakness in order to paralyze his majesty and ease the fight."


    "In this way, when Indra''s power increases, he can send troops to the north."


    Guo Jia said: "the three possibilities mentioned by the minister, considering that emperor Xu once said that the princes of Peshawar were defeated. According to our information, these princes have been dealt with completely, and no one can threaten Indra''s status. Therefore, I think it is most likely that Indra sent the emperor to come, just to delay time and show weakness intentionally. "


    Zhang Xiu praised: "the analysis of filial piety is reasonable. And I agree with the third possibility. "


    Speaking of this, Zhang Xiu pauses for a moment, then looks at Wang Yue on one side and says: "recently, what news has come back from guishuang?"


    Wang Yue thought about it for a moment, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, there is really an action in Kushan."


    Zhang xiudao: "what action?"


    Wang Yue replied: "according to the information sent back by the royal guards, in the aspect of Kushan, because of the extensive arrangement of the Buddha, people spread the news that the Qin army was going to go south, that the Qin army was going to destroy the nobles of Kushan, that they were going to incite the nobles of Kushan, that they were going to be exterminated by their majesty."


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "that''s the news!"


    If you want to follow the message of Lord Guo Jiatuo, it''s enough for you to judge. He widely spread the news that his Majesty was going to destroy the Kushan nobles. At the same time, there is no thunder city and blue city as a precedent, then under such a premise, the noble of Kushan will go all out to fight


    Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said, "in fact, God has to do this to delay time and give Indra time to gather troops."


    "Yes


    Guo Jia nodded.


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "emperor Xu is the sage of Kushan. In order to delay time, he really tried his best. Especially this time, Emperor Xu was first wet by the rain, and then knelt down in the rain to plead guilty. This time, Emperor Xu really paid a lot. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, now we have to give a big gift to the emperor."


    Zhang xiudao: "filial piety will settle?"


    Guo Jia replied: "Your Majesty, in fact, the plan is very simple. We will arrange the royal guards of Lord Wang immediately and rush to Peshawar city to spread what the emperor has to do for peace."


    "In particular, the emperor failed to see his majesty. He went to the camp to see him in the rain. Finally, V knelt down in the rain with thorns on his back, while his Majesty was watching in the camp. All these things must have caused great influence."


    "It is expected that as soon as emperor Xu returns to Peshawar city and hears the comments of the people and everything he has done, it will be spread in Peshawar city. Then emperor Xu will look very good."


    "Of course, that''s not enough."


    Guo Jia continued: "another thing is that your majesty will mobilize troops and prepare to fight. When the emperor returns to Peshawar, he will get the news that we are approaching Peshawar


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help laughing.


    Laughter, full of fun.


    Emperor Xu intends to calculate Zhang Xiu, but in the end, everything he does is in vain.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s go. We are ready to transfer troops."


    "Here it isGuo Jia and Zhang Xiu go together to prepare for sending troops. This time, we are going south to the city of Kabul. After taking the city of Kabul, we will go straight to Peshawar. However, Zhang Xiu''s troops, involving hundreds of thousands of troops, is not a simple thing, it needs a certain amount of time to prepare.


    When Zhang Xiu was ready to send out troops, Emperor Xu had already left Lan''s city and took a carriage to drive quickly.


    The emperor must sit in the carriage with a solemn look.


    Eyes, flashing cold light.


    In his mind, it is hard to forget that under the pouring rain, he was wet all over and became a drowned chicken.


    In his mind, it is hard to forget that he kneels down to plead guilty, but Zhang Xiu is standing in the camp with an umbrella watching him, letting him kneel in the rain.


    In his mind, it is more difficult to forget Zhang Xiu''s condescending look.


    All this made emperor Xu angry.


    It is also unforgettable for the emperor.


    Everything, Emperor must be counted on Zhang Xiu. He will never give up until he gets revenge. Even after defeating Zhang Xiu, he wants to let her taste the most vicious and ferocious criminal law of time, and finally kill her.


    He wants Zhang Xiu to pay the price.


    When he returned to Peshawar, Indra had assembled a considerable number of troops. At that time, Indra''s army is more than five or six hundred thousand, and the mighty army will go north to attack Lanshi City, so it will be able to beat Zhang Xiu in one go.


    This is the wild hope of emperor Xu.


    It''s also what emperor Xu looks forward to in his heart.


    "Lulu, Lulu!"


    The axle turns and the carriage moves forward quickly.


    Emperor must sit in the carriage, the mood of fluctuation, gradually subsided. Finally, he closed his eyes and rested on the carriage. When he went northward, he was quite nervous, but now he is relaxed.


    Because it''s done.


    When the task is completed, Emperor Xu can return with high spirits.

 Chapter 1373

    Outside Peshawar, on the official road.


    A carriage came slowly. In this carriage, the passenger was Emperor Xu. He went all the way south from the front city of Lanchester to the city of Peshawar after passing through the city of Kabul.


    Today''s emperor Xu is in high spirits.


    The reason is simple, Emperor must complete the mission, delayed Zhang Xiu south time.


    Now it''s June.


    It''s quite hot.


    There are very few people on the official roads in Peshawar city. Many people hide in their homes to enjoy the cool and do not come out. After all, today''s hot weather, the streets with heat, walking on the road, is very hot.


    Instead of going straight to the palace, Emperor Xu returned to his home first.


    After all, it was a tough journey.


    He is an old man who can''t bear the high-intensity driving. The most important thing is that when he was in Lanshi city in the north, because he was caught in the rain, although there was no outbreak of disease in his body, Emperor Xu''s body was much weaker.


    Even on this hot day, he was well dressed.


    I''m afraid of cold.


    This is the root of the disease.


    When Emperor Xu returned to his house and sat down in his study to have a rest, his housekeeper entered. The housekeeper looked at the emperor Xu with a smile on his face, even with a strange look, and frowned. He said that it was the master who lost his heart and went crazy because of his failure.


    "Master, although this mission failed, you are not too sad. It''s just a delay and a failure. You don''t have to care. "


    The housekeeper also knows the plan of emperor Xu.


    When he saw that emperor Xuming''s plan had failed, he was still happy and obviously stimulated.


    It''s not a normal performance.


    There''s something wrong with it.


    Emperor Xu listened to the housekeeper''s words and blinked. His face was a little surprised and he said, "what are you talking about? I don''t understand. This time I went north to Lanshi city. I was successful. Zhang Xiu has promised not to go south any more. "


    "Ah


    The housekeeper heard the exclamation.


    He looked even more astonished.


    Emperor Xu said: "you, what? I''m the only one who knows the situation of your mission to Lanshi city. Now, I haven''t gone to see the king. How can you know that I''m defeated? "


    The housekeeper drew his cheek and sighed in his heart.


    He finally understood.


    Together, his master doesn''t know the rumored news and the situation outside. Otherwise, the master would not be so happy.


    The housekeeper took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Sir, you have just returned to Peshawar, and you don''t know the news from the city. Now in Peshawar, there is a rumor about it. "


    Emperor Xu said: "what''s the news"


    at this moment, Emperor Xu had a bad feeling in his heart. He always felt that something was wrong.


    He looked at the housekeeper with an expectant look in his eyes.


    The housekeeper said, "master, the message in Peshawar is about master going north to Ramsey. When you arrived at LAN''s city, you visited Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, in the city master''s mansion, but Zhang Xiu hung you up, so that you fell into a cloud of ashes. "


    "I didn''t see Zhang Xiu at all."


    "Zhang Xiu didn''t want to see you at all, so she just left by the small door. So much so that you wait until it''s dark, and you can only leave in the dark. "


    "The next day, you go to the barracks to see Zhang Xiu, but outside the barracks, you first run into a wall, and then go to plead guilty with Vitex twigs on your back, but Zhang Xiu and Zhang Xiu..."


    The housekeeper''s voice was very low. Just as he said that, suddenly the emperor had to shout, "enough!"


    The housekeeper was silent at once.


    The housekeeper can understand the anger of emperor Xu, and through the expression of emperor Xu, he has determined that the rumored news outside must be true. Therefore, the emperor will directly reprimand.


    The emperor must bite his teeth and say: "at the end of the news, does it mean that Zhang Xiu has led his troops south?"


    "Yes


    The housekeeper nodded and said, "at the end of the news, Zhang Xiu has already seen through the master''s intention to seek peace. The reason why she promised you on the surface is that she intended to do it and give you hope on purpose. In fact, now Zhang Xiu has led the army to the south. "


    The housekeeper sympathized with emperor Xu.


    This time, Emperor Xu lost face.


    It''s the shame of kusana.


    Once emperor Xu was the sage of Kushan. Everyone praised him and admired him. But now, the emperor has to go to the north as an envoy, intending to delay time for Indra, but Zhang Xiu plays him around so much that he loses face.


    "Deceiving too much, deceiving too much!"


    "Zhang Xiu deceives people too much!"


    In the mouth of emperor Xu, he murmured to himself, but gradually, the murmur turned into a roar. His eyes widened, his cheeks flushed, and he was insane.


    At this moment, all the insistence of emperor Xu has collapsed.


    He lost his mind completely.


    You know, all that the emperor has to do in LAN''s city is to avenge Zhang Xiu. But now, all of a sudden, I heard my housekeeper say that all the people in Peshawar knew about his going north, and that he had been calculated by Zhang Xiu.He is now a laughing stock.


    What revenge!


    What a wise man!


    All of them are far away from him, and the label on him is only two words of shame.


    "I''m not willing, I''m not willing!"


    Emperor must roar loudly.


    At this time, his chest was also up and down, even under the rule of anger, his cheeks were extremely red, only felt that the whole person was in endless pain.


    Suddenly, a stream of Qi and blood rushed up. Emperor Xu felt that his throat was sweet. When he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood. As soon as his eyes closed, he fell on the ground with his head up.


    He passed out completely.


    It''s really that emperor Xu has been under too much pressure. He has trampled his dignity into the mud; he has completely lost his dignity, just to calculate Zhang Xiu.


    But when he finally returned to Peshawar City, he found that he thought he had a plan, but everything was in Zhang Xiu''s expectation. Zhang Xiu watched his performance like a fool, and even teased him.


    No one can bear such a gap.


    When the housekeeper saw that emperor Xu fainted, he immediately got flustered and called the doctor in his family. After a period of treatment, Emperor Xu recovered, but at this time, the whole person was dispirited, even his eyes were blank.


    Emperor Xu''s heart was hit.


    He''s a whole person. He''s very miserable.


    Because he was scheming and scheming in every way, he was finally hit by Zhang Xiu. Even, he was like a clown, jumping in front of Zhang Xiu, so that he lost face and everything.


    Master, have you recovered


    Emperor Xu has no eyes and no feeling.


    He was in a daze.


    The housekeeper called again, hoping that Dixu could recover, and even more, that Dixu could cheer up. However, after his persuasion, there was no change in emperor Xu. He was more sad than dead.


    At this moment, housekeeper is also tricky.


    When the housekeeper arranged for someone to take care of the emperor, he left the courtyard where the emperor lived. Then he arranged for someone to attack immediately and report to Indra about the situation of the emperor.


    After all, Indra was a disciple of emperor Xu. Now, the emperor has become like this. It is necessary to ask Indra to come forward, so that the emperor can recover.

 Chapter 1374

    Peshawar, in the imperial city.


    In the main hall.


    Indra is now dealing with government affairs. Now that he has suddenly succeeded to the throne, his foundation is unstable, and he has to deal with a lot of government affairs one by one, so Indra is very busy all day and has no time to play.


    Even now, many officials in the court have advised Indra to get married as soon as possible and decide on the queen to continue the royal blood.


    It''s also an agenda.


    Therefore, Indra was also allowed to be arranged by officials. After all, marriage is extremely important.


    But now Indra''s mood is not too high.


    Because emperor Xu''s mission failed.


    Even emperor Xu became a laughing stock and was criticized by countless people. After all, Dixu was his teacher and his advisor. Therefore, Dixu was teased by Zhang Xiu. Because of Tuoluo''s disappointment, he also felt sad for Dixu.


    Emperor Xu paid too much for his trip to the north.


    Unfortunately, I didn''t get anything.


    Originally, because of Buddha''s heart, he did not agree that the emperor should go north. Now that such a thing has happened, even the Kushan has been affected. Indra is still resentful.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, there was an attendant in.


    After bowing and saluting, the servant said, "Your Majesty, the emperor wants to see you."


    "Xuan!"


    Indrophene said.


    It was not long before the servants came in. This man was Emperor Xu''s close follower. After he entered the hall, he knelt down on the ground with a plop and said, "king, please help me."


    "What''s the matter?"


    Indra frowned.


    His heart, once nervous, is emperor must be tied by Zhang Xiu, so that into danger. But the news he got was that the emperor was returning to Peshawar and there would be no crisis.


    Qin Sui said, "I''ll tell you back. As soon as I came back to my house, I learned the news about Zhang Xiu''s going back to the south. I was so angry that I vomited blood. At that time, the master was in LAN''s city, and Zhang Xiu agreed to strike a truce between the two countries. But now, Zhang Xiu repents, so that the master knows that he has been cheated, so he is angry and can''t get sick after vomiting blood. "


    Brush!


    Indra''s face also changed slightly.


    Emperor Xu is his master.


    Even though Dixu was teased by Zhang Xiu, Dixu was still the only master of Indra. Because Dharma needs the emperor''s advice, otherwise without the emperor''s advice, he would have broken his arm.


    In Indra''s heart, there was some dissatisfaction that the emperor had to go north and failed. Now, however, the emperor''s condition has become serious. Even if he is dissatisfied, he can only suppress his anger and dissatisfaction and solve his problem first.


    "Come on, get ready to drive. I''m going to leave the palace."


    Indrophene said.


    The attendants could arrange it immediately, and Indra went out with the emperor''s whiskers. After leaving the palace gate, Indra drove on in a carriage. As for emperor Xu''s personal followers, he could only walk out of the city on two legs.


    He was not yet qualified to ride in Indra''s carriage.


    Indra took a carriage and galloped all the way to the residence of emperor Xu. When he entered the mansion, he went straight to the room where emperor Xu had a rest. He saw emperor Xu lying on the bed, pale, dark eyed, listless and embarrassed.


    This kind of emperor beard has lost its elegant demeanor.


    Indra has known emperor Xu for more than ten years. In the past ten years, all the emperor''s whiskers that Indra knew were outstanding in style, without any decadence. They always gave people a sense of calm and self-confidence.


    Even if he was defeated in Tianmen Mountain last time, Emperor Xu never looked hopeless and lonely. But now, Emperor Xu seems to be ten years old, and his temples are already gray, giving people a sense of twilight.


    "Teacher!"


    Indra sat down by the bed of Dishu.


    He began to shout, but emperor Xu was still lying, his eyes blank, staring at the roof, giving people a feeling of losing his soul.


    Tuo Di''s beard makes his heart ache.


    His teacher, paid too much.


    Originally, Indra was dissatisfied with Dixu, because the failure of Dixu made Indra passive. But when he saw the appearance of emperor Xu, he could better understand how much he had paid to complete the task.


    It is precisely because the more you pay, in the end, all of your efforts will turn into water and blow people down. This is the case with emperor Xu.


    Indra took a deep breath, holding emperor Xu''s thin hand, and said softly, "teacher, I am your disciple. When you return from your mission to Lancaster City, if you fail, you fail. We may lose, but we can fight again! What''s more, our army is not at war with Zhang Xiu, and the outcome is uncertain. "


    After a pause, Indra said, "the teacher has gone north this time. I don''t know what''s going on now. Teacher, let me tell you a piece of good news. We have recruited more than 400000 troops. Now there are a steady stream of soldiers joining us, and people from different families are bringing people to join us. Our strength is still growing. "Emperor Xu is still blind.


    I''m just in a daze.


    As Indra held emperor Xu''s hand a little tight, he bit his teeth and said, "teacher, Zhang Xiu teases you so much. Is the teacher''s heart, so recognize counsels, dare not revenge to Zhang Xiu? "


    At this moment, Emperor Xu had a look in his eyes.


    Zhang Xiu touched his heart.


    When Indra saw this, he was very happy and continued: "teacher, now Zhang Xiu has started to go south with a large army and head for the city of LAN. Now, we have to fight. If we want to fight, we must win. Teacher, if you have been lying on the bed, you can only die of old age. This is not the style of a teacher. "


    "Yes, yes, I can''t die in bed."


    In the eyes of emperor Xu, the light is more and more bright, he continued: "this time, I must win, I must defeat Zhang Xiu. I failed once, twice, but not a third time. "


    Indra said, "what the teacher said is true."


    Emperor Xu said: "what happened now, we must fight with all our strength."


    Indra said, "be the first war


    Seeing that emperor Xu was gradually rejuvenated, he said, "teacher, I already know the criticism from outside. Despite the slander of the world, but now, and do not care about these. When the teacher commanded the army, defeated the Qin army, recaptured Lan''s city and Wulei City, and then entered the western regions and the territory of the Qin Dynasty, people''s opinions naturally changed. "


    The emperor must nod his head and say, "Your Majesty, I understand."


    After a pause, the emperor must continue: "before, the old minister got into the tip of the ox horn, so he was wilting all the time. But after the king''s relief, I''ve figured it out. I won''t admit this war. I will fight to the end. "


    Indra said, "if only the teacher understood."


    Emperor must say: "Your Majesty, this time I went north to Lanshi City, I was endlessly teased. Zhang Xiu is extremely cruel. Zhang Xiu is like this. Our army must be careful when it comes to fighting with Zhang Xiu. "


    Indra said, "don''t worry, teacher. I understand. What''s more, the people who rebel against Zhang Xiu are not only us, but also other people and ethnic groups. So now, we just need to fight to the death. "


    The emperor said, "what the king said is true."


    Indra patted the emperor''s hand again and said, "teacher, you should stay at home and have a rest for two days. It''s hard for you to go back and forth all the way. After you recover, we''ll send troops north every day to attack Daqin. "


    The emperor must say: "the king is holy and bright. It''s really a blessing for me to meet the king."


    Indra said, "teacher, you are welcome."


    "I''ll leave soon!"


    Indra waved his hand and left with his entourage, leaving time and space for emperor Xu. Indra understood the character of emperor Xu. Now, Emperor Xu seems to be in a state of emotional collapse, but he still has tenacity.


    I''m sure I''ll cheer up when I deal with people like emperor Xu.


    Emperor must sit alone in the room.


    His back gradually straightened, and there was a confident look on his face. After his enlightenment through Indra, he has come out of the mood of failure. Emperor Xu took a day off, but for him, such a rest was nothing more than a deduction of the situation.


    Thinking about how to deal with the Qin army.


    After all, the strength of the Qin army was too strong, and even guishuang had to be a little sharp.


    Therefore, the emperor must have a perfect strategy.

 Chapter 1375

    The city of Kabul, to the south of the city of Ramsey.


    This city, the trade center of the Silk Road in the Western Han Dynasty, can continue to move westward through the city of Kabul and turn to the Central Asian countries. Of course, you can also go south through the city of Kabul to enter the hinterland of Kushan and go straight to Peshawar, the capital of Kushan.


    The Lord of the city of Kabul, named liezhanqi.


    The city of Kabul under this man''s administration, with its geographical advantage of connecting the East and the West from south to north, is very prosperous in business.


    Its population is also more than that of Langshi city and Wulei city.


    Although the city of Kabul is smaller, its economic size is stronger.


    The Lord''s house in the city of Kabul.


    It is located in Nancheng.


    Because the geographical location of Nancheng is higher, even if there is any heavy rain erosion, it is impossible to affect Nancheng. The first areas to be affected are Beicheng, Dongcheng and Xicheng.


    In the Lord''s mansion, in the study.


    Liezhan Qiduan was sitting. He was now in his early 40s. His hair was golden and his skin was white. Especially other slender, the whole person angular features, a pair of dark blue eyes, own aristocratic style.


    When he sits on the throne, he has his own momentum.


    Below sat an old man with black hair and yellow skin. His name was Cui Wei.


    He''s from Taishan county.


    When he was young, Cui Wei was a businessman. He did business everywhere. He even crossed the Silk Road and went to the western regions and Kushan to do business. It was just an accident that he was unable to return to the Central Plains after being robbed in Kushan, so he stayed in the city of Kabul.


    Before he was 40 years old, Cui followed lezhanqi and became a counselor of lezhanqi. He has been following lezhanqi for more than ten years. To this day, he is still the master of liezhanqi.


    In other words, he is also the chief steward of liezhanqi.


    Lie Zhanqi crossed his hands and put them in front of him, then said: "old Cui, now Zhang Xiu''s army of Daqin has gone down from the south of LAN''s city to the city of Kabul. On the other hand, in Peshawar City, Indra called on the whole noble of Kushan to send troops to fight against Zhang Xiu. Now our city of Kabul is caught in the middle. What do you say we should do? "


    The strength of the city of Kabul is not weak.


    However, it is mainly economic strength, but its combat effectiveness in military struggle is weaker.


    So liezhanqi is worried.


    Cui Wei replied: "Lord, today''s city of Kabul, if you want to compete with the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, it must be unstoppable. After all, even the fighting maniacs like mahasaro were defeated by the Qin army. "


    "In particular, the soldiers of Daqin were invincible and never defeated."


    "Whether it was the great emperor of weisudiva or the city leaders, they could not withstand the attack of the Qin army. So with us, the strength of our city of Kabul is weaker, and it can''t be stopped either. "


    "Therefore, we can''t be enemies with the Qin army."


    Cui Wei stroked his beard under his jaw and spoke slowly.


    He has a deep understanding of Daqin.


    After all, these days, Cui Wei has been collecting information about Daqin. Through the businessmen, Cui Wei knows about Zhang Xiu and the rise of Daqin.


    Zhang Xiu is the founding monarch.


    Every monarch who founded a country is a man who has made great achievements in war and is good at fighting.


    Zhang Xiu is such a person.


    In particular, Zhang Xiu''s side, there are a counselor, under the command of the military officers are also extremely powerful. Such a person is not easy to compete with and is hard to resist. Even in the war with Daqin, the city of Kabul will surely be defeated.


    Liezhan Qi said in a deep voice: "old Cui, but the Kushan in the south is not easy to be compared with. Indra had the assistance of emperor Xu, especially encouraged all the Kushan nobles to send troops. Roughly speaking, Indra''s troops this time were at least 600000 troops. We can''t resist such combat effectiveness. "


    Cui Wei nodded his head and said, "what the LORD said is true. Indra''s strength is very strong now. If it is the power of Indra alone, it is not worth mentioning. After all, Indra has more than 200000 troops. "


    "But emperor Xu is not a simple man."


    "Although the emperor had to go north to LAN''s city, he was humiliated by Zhang Xiu, and even played by Zhang Xiu."


    "But we still can''t ignore the ability of emperor Xu."


    "It''s a great character."


    "Under the protection of emperor Xu, Indra''s strength and combat effectiveness are extremely strong. The strength of our city of Kabul alone will not be able to resist the army of Indra. "


    Cui Wei said: "so it seems that we are not suitable to be enemies with Indra."


    Liezhanqi couldn''t help listening.


    Zhang Xiu, he can''t afford to offend.


    Don''t provoke him, too.


    This is the existence that he can''t provoke. For a moment, liezhanqi just feels big.


    Although the column accounted for Qi, according to the normal situation, should be attributed to the Kushan. But the problem is that if he belongs to Kushan now, he will have to be the enemy of Zhang Xiu. At that time, he will be defeated. So, in liezhanqi''s heart, there are still some ideas.Liezhanqi said: "old Cui, now both sides can''t afford to offend. You''d better tell us what we should do to solve the present predicament. "


    Cui Wei stroked the moustache under his jaw and said, "Lord, in fact, the current situation is not very complicated. Even, it can be said that it is actually very simple. "


    Lie Zhanqi and Cui Wei have been together for more than ten years, and they already know their roots.


    For Cui Wei, he believes it.


    So Cui Wei said, lie Zhanqi immediately relieved, said: "Sir, you say the current situation, what should we do? I''m sure it won''t hurt me, sir


    Cui Wei said: "Lord, under the current situation, no one can afford to offend or provoke. Then, let it be. Who leads the army to reach the city of Kabul first, then the city master will go to which side. In this way, it''s quite a simple thing for the Lord of the city. "


    When liezhanqi heard it, he nodded.


    This is really a way.


    However, it is also quite helpless, because it is a random choice.


    Liezhan Qineng, as the leader of one side of the city, and even the shepherd for more than ten or twenty years, is not a simple person. He has his own mind and ideas, so he said: "Sir, which side of the Qin army has a better chance of winning the battle with Kushan?"


    Cui did not think about it for a long time and said: "if we really want to evaluate, which side has a better chance of winning. Then, the Qin army has more advantages and more chances to win. "


    Liezhanqi said, "why?"


    Cui Wei took the tea cup on the desk before he got up. After a sip of tea, he cleared his throat and said slowly, "in fact, it''s not very meaningful to analyze it one by one."


    "Just two things."


    "The first thing is the battle of Tianmen Mountain."


    "In the beginning, Indra and Dixu had a great advantage. It not only has a large number of troops, but also has the advantage of favorable location. But in the end, Zhang Xiu stealthily attacked the rear, so that he lost all his advantages and fled in confusion. "


    "The second thing is that the emperor must go north to Lanshi city."


    "It is the emperor''s intention to delay time and gain more time for Indra so that Indra can gather more strength as soon as possible. But emperor Xu was not only greatly humiliated, but also saw through the plot by Zhang Xiu. "


    Cui Wei said: "these two things are enough to explain some problems. So Lao Jiu thinks that Zhang Xiu has more advantages in the competition between the two sides. "

 Chapter 1376

    Liezhanqi replied, "I understand."


    Cui Wei said: "is it true that the Lord of the city intends to submit to Daqin?"


    Liezhanqi said: "today''s Kushan is a troubled time, not a peaceful place. According to your suggestion at the beginning, we just look at the weather and who will arrive first. This is not my style of doing things. If you want to make a choice, you should make a choice early and stand in line early. In this way, you will get different benefits and trust. "


    Cui Wei leaned forward and said, "what''s the plan of the city master?"


    Liezhanqi said: "Sir, the Qin army has a greater advantage and is easier to win. Then, I am ready to submit to Daqin. As long as we surrender ahead of time, even if I was born in the aristocracy, the place under Zhang Xiu''s rule has always been lenient to the aristocrats who did not do evil. We can even benefit from it. "


    Cui did not nod his head and said, "what the city master said is true."


    After a pause, Cui Wei continued: "what''s more, in the city of Kabul under the governance of the city Lord, the politics are clear, the people are peaceful, and all the people are reading the good wishes of the city Lord. If a man like the Lord of the city submits to Zhang Xiu, then Zhang Xiu must also be entrusted with an important task. "


    "I hope so!"


    Lie Zhan Qi said: "this matter also has to talk about, see Zhang Xiu how to say."


    At this point, a sharp light flashed through his eyes and said, "Mr. Cui, you have mastered the spy system. You immediately arrange for our people to contact the sentinel of Daqin and express our willingness to surrender to Daqin. But the premise is that we also have corresponding conditions. "


    At present, liezhanqi expounds the conditions of Yiying.


    Cui Weidu wrote it down one by one, and he said, "please rest assured, master. I will arrange it immediately. Now that the situation is urgent, I will deal with it properly in the shortest possible time. "


    "Go


    Lie Zhan Qi waved his hand and Cui Wei bowed down.


    After bowing and bowing, Cui turned and stepped down. The residence where he lives is not far from the city Lord''s residence. It takes less than half a quarter of an hour to walk. If he takes a carriage, the time will be shorter.


    Cui Wei returned by carriage. When the carriage stopped outside the mansion, he went straight into the mansion. Although Cui Wei was exiled in the city of Kabul, his wife was also from the Central Plains, and even his servants were all Han Chinese who had come from the Central Plains.


    This is the characteristic of his family.


    Cui did not return to the study to sit down, first drank a cup of ginseng tea. Then, Cui Weicai turned out the book and prepared to mobilize his secret clothes to contact the sentinel of the Qin army.


    At this time, there was a knock on the door outside the study.


    Cui Wei said, "come in!"


    With a creak of the door, the housekeeper of Cui Wei''s house came in. He bowed and bowed. He looked a little serious and said solemnly, "master, there is a Qin man from outside the house. He said that he came from LAN''s city and specially wanted to see the master."


    Cui didn''t hear that, and a smile came up at the corner of his mouth. Now, he is preparing to see the sentinel of the Qin army. Unexpectedly, the other party came immediately. Just as he dozed off, someone sent a pillow.


    It''s not too late. It''s just right.


    Cui Wei said, "please go to the hall. I''ll go later."


    "Here it is


    The housekeeper was ordered to arrange it immediately.


    Cui Wei specially changed his robes, which are authentic Central Plains robes. Dressed in a loose bodice and carefully combed bun, he entered the hall and met a middle-aged man in his thirties.


    This middle-aged man is thin.


    They were not tall, but their arms were long. Even his waist was hung with an iron sword.


    Cui did not enter and sat down. He waved his hand and said, "sit down!"


    "Thank you very much."


    The middle-aged man showed a smile on his wooden face and said slowly in a low voice: "Mr. Cui, I''d like to introduce myself. My name is Yang Wudi. I''m from Daqin. I''m the person in charge of the royal guards in Kabul. Today, on the order of the royal guards, I''m here to see Mr. Cui. "


    Cui Wei said: "you are the representative of the royal guards of the Qin Dynasty in the city of Kabul. Then, can you make the decision?"


    Yang Wudi said: "within a certain range, I can make the decision. What''s more, now the Daqin army is on its way to the south. If there is something that can''t be decided, I can report it immediately. If I don''t need a day, I can give you an answer. "


    Cui Wei said, "that''s very good. That means your intention."


    Yang Wudi took advantage of the situation and said, "I came here on the order of Lord Wang. I hope Lord Cui can submit to Daqin and serve Daqin."


    Cui Wei said: "after I surrender, I can help Daqin and persuade the city Lord to surrender, right? It''s a good deal. It''s a good deal. "


    Yang Wudi said: "Mr. Cui is joking. If Mr. Cui subordinates to the task of the imperial court, you are willing to accept it. It''s the best. If you don''t want to accept it, someone else will do it. So you don''t have to worry about persuading the Lord. "


    Cui Wei said: "I can submit to Daqin, and even persuade the city Lord to submit. But when it comes to the surrender of the Lord, there must be certain conditions. "Yang Wudi had a guess.


    From this point of view, the other side had an intention.


    Now he came to visit on his own initiative, and Cui Wei made a request.


    Yang Wudi was steady in his heart and said, "since the city master of Kabul has requirements, what are the requirements of the city master of Kabul?"


    Cui Wei zhengse said: "first, the official position of the city leader of Kabul can not be changed, or even can only be improved, not reduced. The city master of Kabul needs to continue to be the city master of Kabul. "


    "Second, the Lord of Kabul can hand over the military power of the city, but the family of the Lord of Kabul can not be affected or attacked."


    "Third, officials in the city of Kabul do not need to be adjusted as long as they do not have any records. Today''s city of Kabul should remain unchanged as far as possible. "


    Cui Wei said three conditions in a row, followed by a certain supplement.


    After listening, Yang Wudi thought about it in his heart.


    The three main conditions involved are quite important. He can''t make a decision without authorization.


    Yang Wudi said: "Mr. Cui, I can''t decide these three conditions in one word. Because I promised you now, but in the end, I made an adjustment. Then, I made a mistake first. So I have to report it immediately. At the latest in the evening, I can tell Mr. Cui my decision. "


    "Yes!"


    Cui Wei said: "I''m waiting for good news."


    "Goodbye!"


    Yang Wudi gave a boxing salute, turned and left.


    Cui didn''t look at Yang Wudi''s back, and his face was more relaxed. Because now we are in contact with Daqin, we only need to discuss the demands of both sides, and liezhanqi has also said that although the conditions have been elaborated, it is not impossible to make changes.


    Cui did not follow lie Zhanqi for many years. He knew that as long as Zhang Xiu''s conditions were not particularly harsh. Even if we make corresponding changes on the basis of the three basic conditions, liezhanqi will certainly agree.


    After all, Daqin has the advantage.


    But in the end, it depends on Zhang Xiu''s sincerity and whether she is willing to accept it.

 Chapter 1377

    Yang Wudi got Cui Wei''s reply and went straight out of the city. He rode on his horse and went north as fast as he could. Now the Qin army is heading south, getting closer and closer to the city of Kabul, less than a day''s journey.


    Yang Wudi rode his horse on the road and went against the Qin army, especially Yang Wudi''s speed. As soon as he arrived at noon, he had already met the Qin army led by Zhang Xiu.


    After Yang Wudi showed his identity, he was taken by the soldiers, and soon met Wang Yue and made a brief report. When Wang Yue heard the news, he was very happy and quickly brought Yang Wudi to the audience.


    When Yang Wudi saw Zhang Xiu, he clasped his fist and saluted: "humble Yang Wudi, I''d like to see your majesty."


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t be too polite."


    Yang Wudi immediately said, "report back to your majesty, the city of Kabul has already responded. Cui Wei, the military adviser of liezhanqi, the Lord of Kabul, is willing to submit to Daqin. However, he said that the city master of Kabul has conditions and must obtain his Majesty''s consent. "


    "Say it," said Zhang Xiu


    Yang Wudi said: "the first condition for liezhanqi is that his official position can not be changed, or even can only be improved, but can not be reduced..."


    Immediately, Yang Wudi elaborated it carefully.


    After explaining all the conditions, Yang Wudi said, "I told Cui Wei about my humble position. I will give him a reply tonight at the latest. So this matter needs your Majesty''s decision. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded, looked at Guo Jia and Pang Tong, and said, "I believe that since the other party says so, it is very possible that they are ready to surrender. What do you think? "


    Guo Jia said: "what your majesty said is true, and I agree with your analysis. If the city leader of Kabul, liezhanqi, has no intention to surrender. So when Yang Wudi goes to visit Cui Wei, Cui Wei can''t say such conditions. "


    Pang Tong echoed: "I also think that liezhanqi has no intention of resistance. After all, according to the information inquired by the royal guards, although the city of Kabul is economically prosperous and prosperous, its combat power is actually insufficient. Under such a premise, it is normal for liezhanqi to have the mind to surrender. "


    Zhang xiudao: "you also judge so, that is more secure."


    Yang Wudi said, "Your Majesty, how do you reply to your humble position?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "when it comes to lie Zhanqi''s signal of obedience, this matter must be handled properly. Let you and Cui Wei talk, you may not be able to negotiate, this time of things, by fengxiao himself. If you want to be filial, you can make a decision without asking for instructions. "


    "Here it is


    Guo Jia responded directly.


    Guo Jia has no opinion about taking the lead in going south to Kabul city. After all, there is no danger in going to Kabul city. On the contrary, going first is to make contributions.


    Zhang Xiu said: "time is pressing, so hurry up. Today, fengxiao went to the city of Kabul to settle the matter of liezhanqi''s surrender. Tomorrow, the army led by me will arrive in the city. I hope what I see is the welcome that opens the gate. "


    Guo Jia said: "please rest assured that your majesty will live up to his mission."


    Zhang Xiu let people bring a glass of wine, a glass of wine to Guo Jia, let Guo Jia, Yang invincible go first.


    The army is still moving.


    However, the speed of the road is slightly increased.


    In order to get the soldiers to rest when they arrive in Kabul tomorrow.


    Guo Jia and Yang Wudi raced to the gate of Kabul in the afternoon when it was getting dark. Guo Jiali immediately looked at the city of Kabul with emotion. Compared with LAN''s city and Wulei City, the city of Kabul is more solid and tall, and the gate is full of people.


    At a glance, the city of Kabul is totally different from the city of Lanshi and the city of no thunder.


    Yang Wudi said, "commander Guo, let''s go into the city."


    "Into the city!"


    Guo Jia nodded.


    He and Yang Wudi go straight into the city together. However, after entering the city, Yang Wudi asks Guo Jia if he needs to rest and wash before visiting Cui Wei''s residence. Guo Jia says no, they go straight to Cui Wei''s residence.


    Come to the door of the house, Yang Wudi immediately went forward to report, in a short time, Cui Wei personally went to the door to meet. Knowing that the Qin army had a heavyweight, he would not neglect it.


    Cui Wei''s eyes directly ignore Yang Wudi and fall on Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia is now in his early 40s.


    Although he is in his early 40s, he is still elegant, handsome and handsome. Even though Guo Jia was a little tired all the way here, the bearing that Guo Jia showed had already convinced Cui Wei.


    Cui Wei waved his hand and said, "ladies and gentlemen, please!"


    "Please


    Guo Jia waves her hand and goes straight in with Cui Wei.


    This time, I went straight to the study. When the party entered the study, the guests and the host took their seats. Cui Wei''s eyes fell on Guo Jia and said, "I don''t know what you call me?"


    Guo Jia said, "I''m Guo Jia. I''m filial. I''m your Majesty''s envoy."Cui Wei said, "it''s Mr. Guo."


    Speaking of this, Cui did not pause for a moment, his eyes passed Yang Wudi, and the next moment fell on Guo Jia. He said with a straight face: "Mr. Guo, I have already explained the conditions of the city master to Yang Wudi, so I don''t need to repeat it."


    "No need!"


    Guo Jia shook her head and said, "I''ve been very clear about Mr. Cui''s conditions."


    Cui Wei said: "in that case, Mr. Guo thinks, or his Majesty the emperor of Qin thinks, what are the conditions of the city master. I don''t know if Emperor Qin agreed. "


    Guo Jia gently smile, said: "Your Majesty did not agree."


    Cui Wei''s conditions and Guo Jia''s road have been carefully studied, and even all of them have been thoroughly studied. How to talk about the next conditions, his heart is spectrum.


    Cui Weiyi heard Guo Jia''s words, and his face cooled down. He said in a deep voice, "since the emperor of Qin did not agree, what is Mr. Guo''s intention to come to Kabul now?"


    Guo Jia was not impatient and said: "since it is a condition, it is not a unilateral demand, but the most suitable condition is to meet both sides at the same time."


    "After careful consideration, your majesty didn''t agree to the terms of the Lord."


    "That''s because the conditions are not right."


    "Changes need to be made accordingly."


    Guo Jia continued: "of course, the change of conditions can not be only beneficial to the great Qin Dynasty, nor can it be only beneficial to the Lord of Qicheng. In my opinion, at least both sides can agree and reach a consensus. This is the appropriate proposal. Mr. Cui, what do you think? "


    This remark is neither humble nor overbearing.


    There''s not a bit of arrogance.


    There''s no cowardice.


    What he said was well founded and magnanimous. Even if Cui didn''t see it in his eyes, he couldn''t help but appreciate it.


    Cui Wei''s face also softened down, and he said in a deep voice: "well, what kind of conditions is Emperor Qin. What was the emperor''s reply to the conditions put forward by the city Lord? "


    Guo Jia said with an air of ease: "Mr. Cui, as for the first condition of liezhan Qicheng master, your majesty thinks that as long as liezhan Qicheng master submits to Daqin, you can promise that he will not reduce his official position, or even enhance his position. However, the Lord of liezhanqi can no longer serve as the Lord of Kabul and will definitely make a move. "


    Cui Wei said: "it''s impossible. The first condition of the city owner is the hope to stay in Kabul and continue to serve the people of Kabul."


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "Mr. Cui refused, and his attitude was very tough. Well, I''d like to elaborate on my point of view. I hope Mr. Cui can give me this opportunity. "


    Cui Wei said, "Mr. Guo, please go ahead."


    Guo Jia said: "for more than ten or twenty years, the city of Kabul has been under the leadership of liezhanqi. It can be said that the Lord of liezhanqi has made a deep mark in the city of Kabul. "


    "But it''s just so. It''s not allowed by the rulers. It''s impossible for an official to be in the same place all the time. It is true that the Lord of liezhanqi is a man who benefits the people, but it is impossible for the imperial court to break the rules because of this. "


    "Officials must be mobilized from time to time when they govern local areas."


    "This is to avoid sitting big."


    "Therefore, under such a premise, it is imperative to transfer the Lord of liezhanqi. However, I can guarantee that after being transferred, the Lord of liezhanqi will not be demoted or even entrusted with heavy responsibilities. "


    Guo Jia said: "liezhanqi is the first city Lord to submit to Daqin. This is an example. It can be said that no matter what, liezhanqi is safe."


    "Of course, the reason why your majesty is willing to accept the surrender of liezhanqi is that liezhanqi loves the people like a son and is an honest official who benefits the people."


    "Without this, your Majesty would not have accepted the surrender of liezhanqicheng."


    "Your Majesty needs good officials."


    "There is no need for officials to blame the people."


    Guo Jia looked at Cui Wei and said, "Cui is always a wise man who understands. If it were you, would you continue to let the Lord of liezhanqi stay in Kabul, leaving danger behind? "


    Cui Wei nodded at this time and said, "Mr. Guo is really eloquent. Your words are impassioned and logical. I have to say, you convinced me


    Guo Jia said: "old Cui is flattered. What I said is just a fact."


    Guo Jia raised his thumbs in praise.


    Guo Jia continued: "the second point mentioned by liezhanqi is about the family of liezhanqi. The Lord of liezhanqi, as an aristocrat, must be in the ranks of abolition. The imperial court will not fight against the family of liezhanqi, but it needs liezhanqi to release the land and contact the slaves. If the Lord of the city needs people, he can hire people to do the work. He can only pay for it. "


    "The abolition of slavery and aristocracy is the foundation of the Qin Dynasty."


    "It''s unshakable.""In fact, as long as the leader of liezhanqi works hard and can do things in a down-to-earth way, then the family of liezhanqi, even if it is no longer a noble, is also a noble, because liezhanqi has always been an official."


    Guo Jia said: "in fact, this is not a problem, especially the third point. As long as there are no problems, all the officials in Kabul will naturally stay. Because they need to participate in the governance of the city of Kabul. "


    At that moment, Guo Jia explained the answers to some other small questions.


    Answer all the questions one by one.


    Cui Wei nodded, but he was also relieved because Guo Jia''s words had explained all the problems.

 Chapter 1378

    Cui Weishen said in a deep voice: "I understand what Mr. Guo said. Moreover, I agree with Mr. Guo''s reply in principle. Next, we will meet with the Lord of the city. The Lord of the city may not agree with what I agree with. "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "I believe in the influence of Cui Lao. As an old man who has followed the leader of liezhanqi for more than ten or twenty years, if Cui Lao doesn''t even have this influence, I will look down on him."


    Cui couldn''t help laughing when he didn''t hear it.


    Laughter, full of bright meaning.


    Guo Jia''s words are very central, implying a strong general, but also a compliment.


    Cui Wei got up and said, "come on, let''s go to the Lord''s mansion now."


    Guo Jia said: "just from this time period, when I went to the city Lord''s residence to meet the city Lord of liezhanqi, I thought that as long as Mr. Cui approved my proposal, the city Lord would not object."


    Now it''s night.


    The night was deep.


    At this time, maybe liezhanqi has already rested. Cui Wei dares to see liezhanqi at this time. It can be seen that Cui Wei''s position in liezhanqi''s heart and the influence of Cui Wei on liezhanqi.


    This is Guo Jia''s judgment.


    Cui Wei said: "Mr. Guo is very careful and admirable. I''m very glad that I didn''t fight Mr. Guo. If it''s against Mr. Guo, I''m afraid I won''t sleep well. "


    Guo Jia said: "old Cui is joking."


    They talked and laughed. When they got out of the mansion, they took a carriage and went straight to the Lord''s mansion.


    Arriving at the gate of the city Lord''s mansion, there was no need to inform. Cui Wei took Guo Jia and Yang Wudi and went straight to the hall. The party took a seat in the hall for a short time. Liezhanqi, dressed in gorgeous clothes, entered the hall, and then the guests and hosts took their seats.


    Cui Wei took the initiative to introduce Guo Jia to lie Zhanqi, and also said that Guo Jia had changed the conditions. Finally, Cui Wei said, "Lord of the city, I think the sincerity of Daqin is good."


    Lie Zhanqi believes Cui Wei''s judgment.


    Moreover, although some changes have been made to the conditions, in fact, they have little effect on the column occupancy.


    At least, liezhanqi has been in power for decades. He is also clear about what Guo Jia mentioned. For the sake of long-term stability, Daqin could not keep him in the city of Kabul. After all, liezhanqi''s influence in the city of Kabul is too great and his inside information is too deep.


    Liezhan said in a deep voice: "Mr. Guo, since Mr. Cui recognizes Daqin, I also recognize Daqin. The day of Daqin''s arrival is the day when I open the city. Just hope, Emperor Qin, don''t let me down. I remember that there is an old saying in the great Qin Dynasty, which is to demolish the bridge by crossing the river. I hope Emperor Qin will not demolish the bridge by crossing the river. "


    Guo Jia said with a smile: "Lord, if you are worried about this, there is no need at all. I promise you with my personality."


    Lie Zhan Qi eyebrows up, surprised: "seriously?"


    Guo Jia replied, "nature is true."


    Liezhanqi said, "why?"


    Guo Jia replied: "in fact, the reason is very simple. I am your Majesty''s adviser. But in fact, once in the territory of Daqin, I was the Minister of your Majesty''s mortal enemy. I have been blocked several times, even by your majesty. However, after his majesty unified the Qin Dynasty, he entrusted me with a heavy responsibility with great heart. So I am, not to mention the Lord of liezhanqi? "


    "That''s the truth."


    Lie Zhan Qi''s face also showed a smile.


    What Guo Jia said is reasonable.


    Liezhanqi said: "now that I have Mr. Guo, I will not ask what official position I want to do. I will give the specific transfer to Emperor Qin, and I believe he will arrange it properly. "


    Guo Jia said: "the Lord of the city will not be disappointed."


    After a conversation, Guo Jiaben was talkative, so the conversation was very warm.


    Liezhanqi even suggested drinking.


    Guo Jiaben was a good drinker. He agreed to the proposal directly. Especially with wine, the atmosphere is warm and the distance between each other is getting closer again.


    After a banquet, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves.


    Guo Jia left with Yang Wudi.


    The next day, when the sun was up, Yang Wudi got the news from the royal guards. The army led by Zhang Xiu was already close to the city of Kabul, half an hour away.


    Yang Wudi immediately went to see Guo Jia and reported the news.


    Guo Jia also got up and went to the Lord''s mansion.


    In fact, he has his own channels. After Guo Jia said the news, lie Zhanqi took Guo Jia, Cui Wei, and Yang Wudi out of the city Lord''s mansion and went straight to the north gate of Kabul to welcome Zhang Xiu''s arrival.


    This is the agreement of liezhanqi.


    He said to open the gate to meet Zhang Xiu, and he himself brought people to meet her.


    Time goes by.


    The sun is rising higher and higher, and the burning light comes down from the sun, and it gradually feels hot on people.


    Lie Zhan Qi and his party are waiting quietly.


    With the passage of time, a forehead, have had a fine bead of sweat.It''s hot after all.


    At this moment, suddenly a soldier called out: "here comes the Qin army."


    In an instant, everyone''s eyes looked forward and saw the army on the official road ahead. I saw the mighty Qin army appear, banners fluttering, blocking the sky.


    Zhang Xiu drove her horse to the front.


    He looked at the gate of Kabul and saw where Guo Jia was.


    Seeing Guo Jia, Zhang Xiu knew that it had been done. The army continued to move forward. When they came to the gate of Kabul, Guo Jia stepped forward and said politely, "my minister Guo Jia, meet your majesty."


    Lie Zhan Qi also came forward and saluted: "Chen lie Zhan Qi, meet your majesty."


    Zhang xiudao: "don''t be too polite."


    Today, if Zhang Xiu can capture the city of Kabul without fighting, she will save too much money and reduce too many soldiers'' losses.


    Zhang Xiu said: "the Lord of liezhanqi is willing to submit to Daqin. I am very relieved."


    Liezhanqi said to himself: "Your Majesty, I am ashamed. All this is the emperor''s benevolence, righteousness and dignity spread far and wide. The people admire his Majesty''s kindness, so the people''s will. Now I''m just following the will of the people. "


    Zhang Xiu smiles.


    This column of Zhanqi is flattering. It''s totally pleasant to say.


    When Zhang Xiu talks with lie Zhanqi, he has already waved his hand and ordered to enter the city. Among the troops under his command, Gan Ning has already led his troops into the city first, quickly entered the city of Kabul, and mastered the north city of the whole city of Kabul.


    After that, Zhang Xiu followed her into the city.


    Especially when Zhang Xiu and lie Zhanqi enter the city together, Guo Jia follows Zhang Xiu and talks about the contents of this negotiation. He tells Zhang Xiu all the news so that Zhang Xiu can make arrangements.


    On the other hand, when Zhang Xiu and others went to the Lord''s mansion, the army led by Gan Ning quickly took over the other three gates, and in a short time, they controlled the four gates of Kabul.


    Since then, the city has been under the control of the Qin army.


    Even the army in Kabul city was quickly taken over and controlled by Daqin.


    In the Lord''s mansion, the guests and the Lord are seated.


    Zhang Xiu sits on the main position, while Guo Jia, lie Zhanqi, Gao Lan and Zhang Ren sit on the left and right respectively.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on liezhanqi again and said, "liezhanqi is a city master with profound righteousness. I am very relieved. As for your arrangement, now that I am in Kabul City, I want to reform the city. The Lord of liezhanqi will still be the Lord of the city. "


    Liezhan Qiwen was a little surprised.


    Didn''t Guo Jia say that he couldn''t be the Lord of Kabul?


    After all, he has been in Kabul for many years.


    Now, Zhang Xiu also let him continue to serve as a teacher. However, liezhanqi didn''t say much. He immediately said, "I''ll obey you!"


    Zhang Xiuyan said: "you should be promoted because you have made great contributions to the country. So when you kill Indra and enter the city of Peshawar, you will step down as the Lord of Kabul and go to the city of Peshawar. "


    "Thank you


    When liezhanqi listens, he will understand.


    This is the arrangement for him.


    It is impossible for Zhang Xiu to let him be the leader of the city of Kabul. She has to arrange another person to be the leader.


    However, in his heart, lezhanqi was willing to go to Peshawar as the city leader, because the territory of Peshawar is several times that of Kabul, and even the economic environment is better.


    The size of Peshawar is much higher than that of Kabul.


    In fact, it is a strange environment to go to Peshawar.


    This is a rare opportunity.


    Therefore, the heart of liezhanqi is one hundred and one thousand willing. As a matter of fact, lezhanqi''s ancestral home is Peshawar City, but he has been taking root in Kabul city since he made contributions in it.


    If he could return to Peshawar, he would.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, he continued: "liezhanqi, about the reform of our territory under the rule of the Qin Dynasty. I think you should know. Today''s city of Kabul must also act in accordance with this rule. I''ll leave it to you. "


    Lie Zhan Qi listens and frowns slightly.


    At first, he was not asked to abolish the caste system, but now he has arranged a task.


    But now that he has been subordinated to Zhang Xiu, he should have worked for her. If he couldn''t finish such a task, what would Zhang Xiu do for him?


    Liezhanqi was also a high-ranking man. He had a clear thought in his heart, so he thought about it and said, "Your Majesty, I will complete the reform. The abolition of slaves and nobles is necessary. "


    After a pause, liezhanqi said: "in the city of Lanshi, the nobles were also cleared. I will do the same thing. And I, liezhanqi, as the Lord of the city, should set an example and take the lead in releasing slaves and handing over the land. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu was surprised by lie Zhanqi''s initiative. After all, from the beginning, lie Zhanqi hoped to keep the family''s interests. I didn''t expect to mention it now.As a matter of fact, this is liezhanqi''s cleverness.


    Liezhanqi cooperated early and even helped Zhang Xiu. In this case, Zhang Xiu''s impression can be further strengthened and left a usable impression.


    This is liezhanqi''s plan.


    Liezhanqi said: "Your Majesty is so praiseworthy. It''s hard for your majesty to come all the way. Especially now, the weather is hot. I''ve had people freeze some aged wine in the well. So I''ll arrange for people to bring the wine to your majesty to quench his thirst. "


    Zhang Xiu nodded and agreed.


    Now it''s June and the weather is getting hotter.


    In particular, the heat in the city of Kabul is very hot. If it is midday, exposed to the sun, most people can not bear, will certainly be wilted by the sun, and even heatstroke is possible.


    After the drinks came, meat came.


    People drink and eat meat while chatting.


    Liezhanqi looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, the weather is getting hotter now. Especially at the end of June and the beginning of July, it was the hottest month. Under such hot weather, will your majesty continue to go south to fight against Indra? "

 Chapter 1379

    Zhang Xiu shook her head and said in a deep voice: "after the army enters the city of Kabul, they will stop for a while. The first priority today is the reform of the city of Kabul. Besides, we should also take this opportunity to survive the hottest month or two. When the weather turns cool in August, it will not be too late to attack vaindra. "


    Liezhanqi said with a smile: "Your Majesty has decided to fight steadily. It''s no problem. However, according to the information inquired by the minister, Indra has gathered hundreds of thousands of Kushan nobles and has set out to kill them in the city of Kabul. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "this is just right. We can take advantage of the city of Kabul to defend and attack. It is quite difficult to March and fight in such hot weather. It is not easy for Indra to fight in this weather. "


    Liezhanqi said, "Your Majesty is holy!"


    In fact, he also agreed with Zhang Xiu''s decision, because today''s city of Kabul needs to be adjusted and reformed.


    It means that Zhang Xiu can''t go south for the time being.


    In particular, the hot weather is a great burden to the marching army.


    Zhang Xiu said: "lie Zhanqi, I will stay in the barracks during this period of time. You are in charge of the reform of the city of Kabul. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come directly to the barracks. "


    "Here it is


    Liezhanqi should go down immediately.


    For liezhanqi, he is in charge of the reform. In fact, there is not much problem.


    After all, lezhanqi has a deep foundation in the city of Kabul.


    At the end of a banquet, Zhang Xiu leaves with people. Liezhanqi still stays in the Lord''s mansion. Now he has many things to do, and is about to fall into a busy day.


    Cui didn''t sit at the bottom with a calm look. He didn''t feel dizzy after drinking. Instead, he was conscious, just like he didn''t drink any wine.


    Liezhanqi looked at Cui Wei and said, "Mr. Cui, we are going to reform in Kabul now. Now, in your opinion, how to choose a breakthrough? "


    Cui did not reply: "Lord, in fact, it''s very simple. Because the northern city of Lanshi has completed the reform. Now, we just need to follow the steps of blue city. Of course, the first announcement was the notice of abolishing the caste system, and then the nobles in Kabul were rectified... "


    At this time, Cui did not talk about the steps of reform.


    One by one, everything was in order. After listening to it, liezhanqi was completely down-to-earth and let Cui not make arrangements.


    If Cui is not here, lie Zhanqi is at ease.


    When the city of Kabul began to reform, the news that the city of Kabul was subordinated to Daqin came from the south.


    The news reached near Peshawar.


    Near the city of Peshawar, the army led by Indra had gone northward.


    Indra now leads an army of more than 600000.


    This is the power of your frost.


    Because Dharma itself has more than 300000 troops, in addition to the army donated by more than 300000 nobles gathered at the call of Dharma, the troops amount to more than 600000.


    This was the greatest force Indra could muster.


    The whole army march, winding long, mighty, momentum is extremely frightening.


    Towards noon, the army stopped to rest.


    More than 600000 troops suddenly stopped, and the lineup was huge. It took a long time to even give a little order. So many people are also the strength of Indra.


    In the middle.


    Under a big tree.


    Indra, Dixu, and the main generals gathered here.


    They all enjoy the cool under the trees.


    Indra looked at the emperor and said, "teacher, we are still a few days away from the city of Kabul. I just don''t know if liezhanqi, the leader of Kabul, can stop the attack of Daqin. "


    Emperor Xu said: "as long as liezhanqi is not arrogant and rash, and delays for a few days, it is absolutely no problem. Although it''s certain that liezhanqi can''t stop it, it''s enough to delay time. "


    Indra said, "the teacher has a point."


    His analysis is the same as that of emperor Xu.


    Although the city of Kabul is not as strong as Peshawar or Ramsey, its strength is not weak. In particular, liezhanqi had been in Kabul for nearly 20 years. If the Qin army conquered it easily, Indra would find it inconceivable.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, the sentinel Pegasus came back.


    The sentinel quickly came to Indra''s side, got off his horse, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from the northern city of Kabul. The city of Kabul was dominated by liezhanqi, who led the army to Daqin. Today, the Qin army has entered the city of Kabul. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    Indra was furious when he heard that.


    This just talked about liezhanqi. Unexpectedly, liezhanqi had already surrendered to Daqin.


    You know, liezhanqi is the Lord of Kushan.


    But now lezhanqi didn''t even resist, so he chose to surrender. This choice made Indra angry. He looked at the soldier who reported the news and said again, "are you sure the news is true?""True!"


    The sentry once again said, "liezhanqi has indeed complied and issued a notice. Moreover, lezhanqi has begun to reform in the city of Kabul, abolishing caste system, aristocracy and slaves. Not only that, Zhang Xiu''s army is also in the town of Kabul, cheering for liezhan. "


    Indra clenched his fist and was furious.


    Damn it!


    Damn liezhanqi!


    As soon as Indra waved his hand, the sentry turned and stepped down. Indra looked at the emperor''s beard and said in a deep voice, "teacher, it seems that we have failed to resist Zhang Xiu''s plan with the help of the city of Kabul. Now in this situation, what do teachers think we should do? "


    The emperor''s beard is also frowning.


    He found that once he met Zhang Xiu''s army, he could do nothing.


    Once separated from Zhang Xiu, he can do nothing.


    As if, like Zhang Xiuke him.


    In his heart, the emperor had no choice. Now the good city of Kabul has become the territory of the Qin army. Such a thing is beyond the calculation of emperor Xu.


    Emperor must take a deep breath and think quickly.


    A moment later, a grim look flashed in his eyes, and he said: "under the current situation, if we want to deal with liezhanqi in Kabul City, we have to wake up all those who surrender to Daqin, then we can only take extraordinary measures."


    Indra said, "what extraordinary means?"


    "Assassinate!"


    The emperor must say in a deep voice: "assassinate lie Zhanqi and other nobles who were subordinated to Zhang Xiu, and then plant them on Zhang Xiu. In this way, it is impossible for anyone to submit to Zhang Xiu. At the same time, it is also a wake-up call for the nobles who betray Kushan, and let them know how serious the consequences will be once they betray Kushan. "


    When Indra heard this, he was moved and said, "what the teacher said is reasonable. This time, that''s what to do. Liezhanqi, this man should be killed. If we don''t kill him, we will never stop. Only by killing this Liao can my hatred be dispelled. "


    The rest of the generals echoed.


    Everyone agrees with the assassination.


    Because for them, only by killing liezhanqi and others can they knock down the mountain and shake the tiger and have a deterrent effect.


    Otherwise, there will be no effect at all.


    Seeing that all the generals agreed with him, Indra was more determined. Looking at the emperor''s beard, he said, "teacher, you should mobilize your assassins and act immediately. This time, we must kill liezhanqi. Of course, if you can kill Zhang Xiu, it will be better. "


    "No way!"


    Emperor Xu shook his head and said: "Zhang Xiu is not easy to deal with, and our people can''t get close at all. Therefore, it is totally impossible to assassinate Zhang Xiu. "


    After a pause, the emperor must continue: "but Zhang Xiu''s side, according to the information, there are Pang Tong and Guo Jia two counselors. These two people are all helpless. If they can be assassinated, it will certainly cause a huge blow to Zhang Xiu. "


    Indra said, "then arrange it together."


    "Yes


    The emperor must bow his hand and answer.


    For him, one is arrangement, and the other is arrangement. In a word, more assassins will be arranged to sneak into the city of Kabul. Even if there is one failure, there will always be one success.


    As long as one assassination is successful, it''s worth it.


    This is the plan of emperor Xu.


    Emperor must immediately call to the side of the messenger, immediately arrange to go on, to convey the order.


    After all this, Emperor must look forward to it.


    It''s up to us whether we can succeed or not.

 Chapter 1380

    The city of Kabul is bustling with people.


    Because of the prosperity, there are many places to enjoy drinking, which is very suitable for people like Guo Jia. Especially after entering the western regions, there were a lot of wine, such as wine, fruit wine and so on, which were good for Guo Jiaxi.


    Now in Kabul, he has little to do.


    Therefore, Guo Jia''s daily life is to travel through the wine shops in the streets of Kabul city to taste the fine wines of various families. Even if it''s the same wine, it tastes different in different wineries.


    Therefore, Guo Jia enjoyed wine every day.


    It''s very comfortable.


    On this day, Guo Jia went out of the military camp alone and sat down to drink in a wine shop in the city.


    He''s not a heavy drinker.


    It''s a sip.


    While tasting wine, we listen to the comments around us, because through these comments of ordinary people, we can hear a lot of real local conditions and understand the promotion of policies.


    Today, Guo Jia has long been proficient in Kushan dialect.


    So I can understand.


    When he listened to the people''s comments, most of the people''s comments today were about the reform of abolishing caste system and the abolition of aristocracy and slaves. Such a thing is a hot spot in the city of Kabul.


    For the people at the bottom, they are free, so they are welcome.


    They all praised Zhang Xiu.


    However, there are also some people who think that Zhang Xiu is inviting people to do so.


    Guo Jia laughed it off.


    He would not argue with others because of these things. Because the policies formulated by the imperial court will not stop advancing because of someone''s comments, but will continue to advance.


    When Guo Jia was drinking in a wine shop, he was not far away, in the corner of the street.


    But there was a skinny man who was paying attention to Guo Jia''s back from a distance. The man was dressed in coarse linen, carrying a basket and a plate with green peas in it.


    This is a cooked pea, soft and glutinous.


    Best for drinking.


    When he saw Guo Jia, he took the basket on his back and the plate to the wine shop. As he walked, he yelled: "green peas, crisp and waxy green peas. If there are green beans in the wine, the gods will not change them. "


    He approached Guo Jia step by step.


    Seeing the distance from Guo Jia is getting closer and closer, there is a touch of brilliance in his eyes.


    Here comes the opportunity.


    This is his chance.


    The distance between them is still getting closer.


    Ten steps!


    Five steps!


    In the twinkling of an eye, when the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than three steps, the Hawker''s heart was beating. Because he is not a hawker, but an assassin, who is responsible for assassinating Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia also noticed the assassin when he was drinking. He noticed that when he entered the wine shop, he was originally a peddler of green peas. He should ask them one by one, and then come to his direction. However, this man did not pay any attention to the rest of the drinkers. He came directly to his direction.


    Such a situation aroused Guo Jia''s vigilance.


    Guo Jiaben is a man who has been on the battlefield for a long time.


    A pair of eyes are very powerful.


    As soon as I saw the assassin coming, I immediately stood up, grabbed the wine bowl in my hand and threw it at the assassin. This action made the originally nervous assassin immediately think that he was exposed.


    Sonorous!


    The peddler''s hand suddenly threw away the plate, pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and rushed to Guo Jia.


    Guo Jia had a decision in advance, so he stepped back decisively. When Guo Jia retreated five steps in succession, he stopped and did not retreat. This curtain fell in the eyes of the assassin, but he thought that Guo Jia had no way to escape and was not ready to escape.


    There was a smile on the assassin''s face.


    It''s done!


    He wants it done.


    But the assassin approached. When he was less than three steps away from Guo Jia, he began to hand out his dagger. Suddenly, on the right side of his side, an iron sword stabbed like lightning.


    This sword, quick and quick, goes straight to the assassin''s heart.


    Seeing this, the assassin quickly dodged.


    If he wanted to assassinate Guo Jia, he would have to be killed, so the assassin chose to avoid. Guo Jia''s face appeared in front of him.


    This is the Royal Guard to protect Guo Jia''s safety.


    Guo Jia is Zhang Xiu''s adviser.


    Identity matters.


    People like Guo Jia can''t come out without protection. Because Guo Jia made a judgment in advance and gave the royal guards time to react. If Guo Jia didn''t predict in advance, it would be hard to say the result this time.


    The royal guards looked back at Guo Jia and said, "commander Guo, step back."


    Guo Jia nodded and turned back.


    He retreated to the corner and sat down, looking at the royal guards and assassins in the battlefield. For Guo Jia, the assassination of such a small battle is really not worth mentioning.It''s not a big deal.


    On the battlefield, the two men have been fighting.


    The swordsman of the royal guards is skillful and fierce. In a short time, he has driven the assassin to the end. In fact, for the royal guards, his swordsmanship is easy enough to kill each other. However, in order to capture each other alive, it took more effort.


    In the 15th move, the Royal Guard''s sword sweeps, the blade is cut out, and a sword is put on the assassin''s wrist. In an instant, blood gushed from the assassin''s wrist, and the dagger fell to the ground with a crash.


    The royal guards come forward quickly, intending to capture each other alive.


    But as soon as he got close, the assassin was poisoned and fell to the ground.


    The royal guards frowned, turned to Guo Jia and said, "commander Guo, today''s Kabul city is not safe. I''ll arrange someone to escort you back. I''ll take this assassin and go back to work. "


    "No problem!"


    Guo Jia also knows the weight.


    At this time, the city of Kabul is no longer safe.


    So go back to the barracks to avoid a crisis. As soon as Guo Jia returned to the barracks, he went straight to see Zhang Xiu. He said once about the assassin he met in the wine shop today, and Zhang Xiu was on the alert.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "our enemy is Indra. So this time the assassin is most likely an assassin sent by Indra, who is specially prepared to assassinate us. "


    "Your Majesty, I have been assassinated."


    At this time, Pang Tong also entered.


    Pang Tong looked eager and said, "Your Majesty, I was assassinated in the street today. Thanks to the protection of the royal guards, they beat each other back. But no one took it, the other side escaped. "


    After a pause, Pang Tong said: "I suspect that the assassin may be sent by Indra. Since we will be assassinated, then liezhanqi of the Lord''s mansion may also be assassinated. "


    "Wang Yue!"


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order.


    "Yes


    Wang Yue immediately entered outside the account.


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and said: "you immediately arrange the royal guards to go to the city master''s residence to see lie Zhanqi and explain that our people were assassinated. Then, let the royal guards stay at liezhanqi''s side and protect liezhanqi''s safety. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue said, "I will arrange for Shi a to go."


    He quit immediately and arranged for it.


    Zhang Xiu flashed a cold look in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "this is because in order to win, the Buddha really has nothing to do with it. Now he has brought more than 600000 troops to kill, but he has also sent assassins to kill. We can''t see him doing this because he''s so stressed. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, at this time, you should be more careful."


    Pang Tong said, "I''m attached to your humble position."


    Zhang Xiu looked solemn and continued: "we are not afraid of Indra sending assassins. Now, what we need to know is the situation of liezhanqi. Hopefully, liezhanqi is safe now. Once liezhan makes any mistake, it will have a great impact on our control of the city of Kabul. "


    Guo Jia said, "what your majesty said is true."


    The Lord''s mansion.


    Liezhanqi is now dealing with government affairs.


    He is very busy now. After all, he is responsible for all the reforms involved. So there are so many things to deal with every day.


    Cui Wei is also at the side of lie Zhanqi, also busy.


    A lot of official business is not dealt with by Cui first, and then handed over to lie Zhanqi for decision.


    Finally, the imperial edict was issued.


    When liezhanqi was busy, a servant came in and reported: "Lord of the city, a man named Aguda came to the Lord''s house. He said, "there''s something important. I want to see the Lord of the city."


    "Please come to the lobby. I''ll come later!"


    Liezhanqi said.


    In fact, lezhanqi knew Aguda, because Aguda was also an aristocrat in the city of Kabul. He was the same as lechanqi, and he was kind to the people, and he was also good friends with lechanqi.


    So liezhanqi directly ordered.


    Just after the attendant turned to go down to inform him, another attendant came in and reported: "Lord of the city, Shia, royal guards, I''m on your Majesty''s order to see you. Shia said, no matter what you have, please hold down for a while and meet him first. Shia said that what he wants to say is extremely important. "


    Liezhanqi said, "please come to the study."


    "Here it is


    I''ll inform you immediately.


    After a while, Shi axian stepped into his study. When he saw lie Zhanqi and Cui Wei, he was relieved. He also had a smile on his face and said: "Lord of the city, Mr. Cui!"


    Liezhanqi said: "Lord Shi came to the city Lord''s house in person. I don''t know your majesty. What''s the matter to announce?"


    Shi a replied: "just before, Guo Jia and Pang Tong were assassinated outside. His majesty suspected that in order to win by all means, Indra arranged assassins to stab and kill. Your majesty thinks that the Lord of the city may also be assassinated, so he sent me to have a look and protect the safety of the Lord of the city at the same time. "When liezhanqi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and showed an unexpected look. He said, "it''s so hard that there''s such a thing. What''s the influence of commander Guo and commander Pang?"


    Shi a replied: "both of them are protected by the royal guards. Therefore, the two military divisions were not affected in any way. Instead, it was the assassins. One was killed and the other escaped. Now your majesty has sent me to protect the Lord of the city. On the premise that the assassin''s assassination crisis has not been lifted, I am responsible for the safety of the city Lord. "


    Liezhanqi frowned.


    There''s an assassin.


    We need to know that when the two armies are at war, they will fight each other, but they will use their own extreme means, which does not include the assassination of each other''s officials. Because once you do that, you''re setting a precedent.


    This is extremely inappropriate.


    So liezhanqi despised Indra''s sending people to assassinate him.


    "At the moment, I am not in danger," he said. So you don''t have to worry. "


    Shi ah said: "now, I will stay with the Lord and be responsible for protecting the safety of the Lord. After all, the safety of the city master is related to the safety of the whole city of Kabul. "

 Chapter 1381

    When liezhanqi heard it, he immediately knew it.


    He knew that the reason why Aguda wanted to bring people to assassinate him must be that the abolition of caste system hurt Aguda''s family, so Aguda took the opportunity to kill him.


    However, liezhanqi''s heart is still a little gloomy.


    Because Aguda was his old friend.


    In particular, Aguda was the first group to support the abolition of caste system. But now, Aguda is with people to assassinate him, so that the heart of liezhanqi is very lost.


    Liezhanqi said, "Aguda, I didn''t expect you to assassinate me."


    "Damn you!"


    Aguda gritted his teeth and said, "liezhanqi, you son of a bitch, if you don''t do it, you want to hand over the military power and the city. You are not only stupid, but also stupid enough to abolish the foundation of the whole kusana. "


    Liezhanqi shakes his head when he sees Aguda who looks like a mad devil.


    Agouda is hopeless.


    Even if he doesn''t want to kill agouda, he will die at this point.


    Liezhanqi''s eyes were drawn back from Aguda. His eyes fell on the assassin. Because Shi a sword cut off a palm of the other side, there is still blood flowing out of the broken wrist, so the assassin is pale.


    After all, I lost too much blood.


    Liezhanqi looked at Shia, saluted respectfully and said, "Shia, thank you this time. If you don''t insist, I''m afraid I''m already a corpse. "


    Shia said: "the Lord praised me. This is what I should do. What''s more, the city Lord was not on guard because he was an old friend with the other side. If it were someone else, the LORD would be on guard. "


    Liezhanqi sighed: "in a word, this time, thanks to you. It seems that Indra has gone mad and mobilized countless people to assassinate officials in the city of Kabul. Indra did it with great care. Unfortunately, it was of no help


    Shia said: "please don''t worry, Lord. If you have me, your safety will be fine."


    Liezhanqi nodded, looked around and fell on Cui Wei below, saying, "Mr. Cui, you are my confidant and an important official of Kabul. Once you leave the city Lord''s mansion, you may also encounter danger. So in the recent period of time, he stayed in the city Lord''s residence temporarily to avoid danger. "


    "I''ll do it


    Cui answered without bowing.


    For him, there was no one in his family, and it was nothing to stay in the Lord''s mansion.


    It''s the same everywhere.


    Cui Wei continued: "Lord, now Indra''s assassins are coming. In my opinion, we must be careful in this matter. We should arrange for the soldiers to inform the officials of the whole city Lord''s mansion about the killing of Indra. Let''s all be careful to avoid flaws. "


    Liezhanqi said, "yes, I''ll leave it to you."


    "Yes


    Cui Wei bowed down.


    Shia said: "Lord of the city, there is another thing, that is, the assassination of the Lord''s mansion. This matter must be reported to your majesty, so that your majesty can gather the information and then make countermeasures."


    "Yes, yes, that''s the truth."


    Liezhanqi grinned and agreed with Shia''s suggestion.


    Immediately, liezhanqi arranges his attendants to leave the city master''s residence and send the news to Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu received the news from the Lord''s mansion, she was also relieved. Gain and loss arrange Shi''a in time, otherwise liezhanqi will be killed, and then the city of Kabul may fall into turmoil.


    Today''s city of Kabul, however, cannot be listed.


    Zhang Xiu handed the news to Guo Jia and Pang Tong and said, "now Indra is like a mad dog, sending people to assassinate officials everywhere. It seems that in order to win the war, he really did everything he could. But now, you two, what should we do? "


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, it''s not the style of Daqin to sit and wait for death. I think that if Indra has no scruples, then we should take the method of tooth for tooth and blood for blood. Indra sent people to assassinate officials, and we also arranged people to sneak into Peshawar city to assassinate Indra''s officials. Once Peshawar is in turmoil, Indra is also extremely difficult. "


    Pang Tong didn''t like the officials of Kushan.


    These officials of Kushan are aristocrats, a group of moths, who only know how to suck the blood of the common people.


    They''re all damned people.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "I, Zhang Xiu, have always been avenging every other night, tooth for tooth, blood for blood. Shi Yuan''s answer, I think, can be acted on. I don''t believe it. Indra can compare with our people. "


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty is holy."


    Guo Jia answered and said, "Your Majesty, I also have a suggestion about the attack on Indra."


    Zhang Xiu said: "but it''s OK to say it!"


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "in today''s situation, it is far from enough to simply return a tooth for a tooth and blood for blood. In my opinion, the royal guards should be arranged immediately to spread the news of Indra''s action and let everyone know about it. At the same time, it is also a way to publicize that because of the poor skills of Torah, people are arranged to assassinate him in this way. "Zhang Xiuzheng said: "feasible!"


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu called Wang Yue and immediately arranged to go on.


    Some people from the royal guards spread the news. In a short period of half a day, the news that Indra had arranged to assassinate officials spread in the city of Kabul, and everyone knew the news.


    Even news began to spread.


    For thousands of people in Kabul, Indra''s arrangement to assassinate officials is tantamount to assassinating their parents. Because today''s officials are all responsible for abolishing the caste system, which is beneficial to the people.


    Therefore, the ordinary people in the whole city of Kabul, the vested interests, heard that Indra sent people to stab and kill people, and the whole people in the city of Kabul were boiling. Countless people denounced Indra and even denounced Indra for being shameless.


    Meanwhile, as the news continues to spread.


    It came to Indra''s ears.


    When Indra learned that all his assassins were defeated, even the failure of his plan made Indra feel rather disappointed.


    The assassination plan is extremely important.


    This is to disrupt the plan of the whole city of Kabul, but such a plan failed, and the assassination of officials in the city of Kabul also affected the prestige of Indra.


    So Indra was very disappointed.


    Indra is still leading the army.


    He looked at the emperor''s beard and said, "teacher, our assassination plan failed. The soldiers in the whole army also talked about it. The failure of this plan also has an impact on the morale of the army. "


    Emperor Xu said: "king, although it has some influence, it is insignificant. It''s just that some people think that the king''s practice is cruel and not worth mentioning. There are two things that matter most at the moment. "


    Indra said, "please show me!"


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "the first thing is the news from the city of Kabul. Zhang Xiu wants to kill the officials of Peshawar city with a tooth for a tooth. We must be careful in this matter. We have to arrange people to go back immediately and let the officials of Peshawar city be on guard."


    "The second thing is the top priority at the moment. It''s still to rush to Kabul. We now have a total army of 6.7 million. Such a huge momentum is enough to frighten the Qin army in Kabul. So we have to go all the way and publicize the news at the same time. "


    Emperor must say: "the rest of the things, do not care."


    Indra said, "I understand what the teacher taught me."


    With a smile on his face, Emperor Xu said: "king, our battle is the battle of Kushan''s national destiny. Once the war is won, the national movement of the Qin Dynasty will surely collapse. However, if we fail in this war, it will mean the collapse of Kushan''s national destiny. Therefore, in this war, only victory is allowed, not defeat. "


    Indra said, "I understand what the teacher said. Now in this war, we have mobilized all the forces that can be mobilized. There are six or seven hundred thousand troops. Such an army is enough to break the current. If this kind of momentum can''t destroy Zhang Xiu, it will be a complete failure. "


    "That''s what I mean!"


    Emperor Xu had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "so now, the rest of things are small problems. The most important thing is to win on the battlefield. Now, in order to inspire the morale of the army, after some deliberation, I have to issue three more decrees. "


    Indra said, "teacher, please speak!"


    Emperor Xu said: "the first decree tells all the soldiers that once they break down the city of Kabul, they will be allowed to plunder for three days and will not stop them from moving. The city of Kabul is the place where they vent and get rich. "

 Chapter 1382

    Liezhanqi laughed and said: "it''s really not necessary. Shia is the guard of your majesty. Now that your majesty has sent you, your Majesty''s safety cannot be guaranteed. So you''d better go back to the barracks and protect your majesty. "


    After a pause, liezhanqi said: "now we are at war with Kushan. Your Majesty''s safety is fundamental. If your Majesty''s safety can not be guaranteed, once your majesty goes wrong, it will affect the war. So you''d better go back and protect your majesty. "


    For lezhanqi, he was confident that the city Lord''s house was safe and that no one could attack him.


    This is the confidence of liezhanqi.


    Shia shook his head and said, "it''s related to the safety of the city Lord. We can''t take it lightly. Today, both commander Guo and commander Pang are in danger, so we must ensure the safety of the city Lord. "


    Liezhanqi said: "it''s really unnecessary. Your Majesty''s safety is more important."


    Shi said: "to tell you the truth, your Majesty''s martial arts are far superior to mine. The so-called protection of your majesty is just a saying. After all, in front of your majesty, I''m afraid I can''t even do 20 or 30 moves. "


    Liezhan Qiwen was very surprised.


    Is Zhang Xiu so interested?


    Liezhanqi said: "Your Majesty, as a king of a country, has a lot of things all day, so he doesn''t have much time to practice martial arts. But can your Majesty''s martial arts really have such an advantage? "


    Shia said: "Your Majesty has been practicing martial arts in winter and summer. Your Majesty''s martial arts, when he was in the Qin Dynasty, had no rival in the world. Now in Kushan, it''s the same as pushing everything horizontally, and no one can beat it. "


    "A mere assassin, not worth mentioning."


    "Not to mention that your majesty has been in the barracks. It''s impossible for the assassin to get into the barracks. Even if your majesty goes out, there are other royal guards around you, so your majesty is absolutely safe. "


    Shi a said: "on the contrary, it''s the Lord of the city. Now he meets countless officials every day, handles numerous government affairs, and even goes out to handle government affairs. Under such a premise, the Lord of the city is quite dangerous."


    Cui Wei sat down and listened to Shi A''s words. He stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "Lord, what Shi a said is true. Lord, your safety matters. To be on the safe side, we have to keep Shia. "


    "All right!"


    Liezhanqi nodded.


    At this point, lie Zhanqi can''t refuse Zhang Xiu''s kindness, so he should go down directly.


    Liezhanqi said, "Aguda has come to visit. I''m going to meet him in the hall. Shi ah, this is the city Lord''s residence. I''m safe. So you don''t have to worry. "


    "No!"


    Shi a is very alert, shaking his head: "the safest place, perhaps the most dangerous place. Therefore, I must follow the Lord at any time and at all times to protect his safety. "


    He is extremely vigilant.


    Not at all relaxed.


    Liezhan saw Shi a cautious look and chuckled twice.


    He doesn''t think it''s dangerous.


    Not to mention Aguda.


    He was a good friend. They had a good relationship, so Aguda didn''t think there was any problem. But Zhang Xiu said, lie Zhan Qi still took Shi a and went to the hall.


    I''ll take a seat.


    Shi a is standing behind lie Zhanqi, just like a wooden man, with no expression on his face.


    Aguda took a look at Shia, and there was a trace of surprise in his eyes. He and liezhanqi know each other. When they meet, they always have no guards. Now, this time, liezhanqi comes with a guard.


    It''s amazing.


    But Aguda didn''t show anything. He took the initiative and said, "Lord, I have come here to ask for help from the Lord. This time, I hope to get help from the Lord of the city. "


    Liezhanqi said, "you have any request, but it''s OK to say it."


    Aguda replied, "Lord, I have an object to offer to the Lord. This article is enough to affect the people''s livelihood in Kabul. It is said that it came from the territory of Daqin. Please have a look at it. "


    "Somebody


    Said Aguda.


    At Aguda''s command, an attendant entered from outside the hall.


    This attendant was brought by Aguda.


    He held a black box in his hands, and his hands were under the box. Especially this attendant, who is not tall, but thin and indifferent, is walking forward step by step.


    The curtain fell in Shi''a''s eyes.


    He was on the alert.


    Shi a himself is a very powerful swordsman and an assassin. With his intuition, he immediately realized that the man holding the box was in danger, so Shi a moved half a step under his feet at the first time, and bent his feet slightly forward, ready to move at any time.


    Aguda saw the servant holding the box forward, gulping down a mouthful of saliva, and then continued: "Lord, I have offered something that is of great benefit to the city of Kabul, so I want to get the corresponding reward.""What''s the reward?"


    Lie Zhan Qi''s face was wearing a faint smile and asked.


    Aguda said, "the reward I want is you..."


    At this point, Aguda''s voice suddenly showed that the man holding the black box was less than ten steps away from liezhanqi. Such a distance is only a very short distance for the servant holding the box.


    "Kill


    The attendant threw away the box.


    Hand from the box below, take out a dagger, is already fast out.


    The distance of ten steps is only a blink of an eye for the attendant. In a twinkling of an eye, the attendant rushed to lie Zhanqi''s body and quickly handed out the dagger.


    "My life is over!"


    Liezhanqi''s face was despairing.


    It''s so sudden.


    He didn''t even have the slightest precaution.


    At this time, the clear voice suddenly came out, and a cold sword light rose from the bottom up.


    "Yes


    It''s like the sound of brocade and silk.


    The next moment, the hand and dagger, which were handed forward, fell from the air together. And the forward fleeing attendants, the red blood on their wrists, just like a spring splashing out.


    The warm blood directly sprayed on liezhanqi''s body, even splashed on his face, which made liezhanqi open his eyes. He saw that the wrists of the attendants were cut off, and he looked shocked.


    The next moment, Shia has stepped out.


    His whole person seems to be shifting, suddenly appeared in front of lie Zhanqi, blocking the front of the attendant. Shi a raised his leg and kicked it out.


    "Bang!"


    The sole of the foot is printed on the servant''s chest. Under the powerful force, the servant''s real person suddenly flies out like a shell, and then falls to the ground in an arc in the air.


    There is still blood splashing on the wrist of the servant who fell on the ground, and there is also blood spilling in the air. At this moment, the servant''s face was no longer indifferent, power was painful and ferocious, and even more terrifying.


    It''s so strong!


    The people in front of us are so strong!


    So that, in front of each other, he has not even passed a face-to-face, has been directly defeated.


    "Come on, come on!"


    In an instant, he saw a group of soldiers rushing into the hall. This group of soldiers surrounded the assassins who fell to the ground. Even Aguda was detained.


    Liezhanqi stood up, his eyes were even a little red, staring at Aguda, with an unbelievable look on his face. He bit his teeth and said, "Aguda, why, why should I be assassinated?"


    Aguda said, "liezhanqi, you dog officer. If it wasn''t for the people around you, you would be in a different place now. You deserve it. You deserve it. You are a disgrace to the nobility of Kabul. "


    When liezhanqi heard this, he said with disdain, "Aguda, I don''t know if I am a disgrace to the city of Kabul. But I know you can''t escape now. You will die. "


    Aguda said: "even if you kill me, so what? In the end, you will be defeated. Zhang Xiu, the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, is also not a fuel-efficient lamp. In the end, you must die in the hands of Emperor Qin. You can''t live for a long time. "

 Chapter 1383

    "Hiss!"


    Indra took a breath.


    He frowned and said, "teacher, once this decree is issued, we will take the city of Kabul. That means that the city of Kabul will surely be destroyed by the looting of hundreds of thousands of people. In particular, the old and weak in Kabul will not survive, and the rest of the women will be subjected to endless humiliation. "


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, if you can win the city of Kabul and pay for its future, it is also worth it. Because in this war, we can only win, not lose. You have to be clear that if you fail, then we will see nothing. Through this decree, the officers and men in the army were encouraged to make concerted efforts. So it''s worth the price. "


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said, "have you ever considered what will happen if you are defeated. Once you are defeated, your ancestral temple will be lost, your body will die and your family will be destroyed. In order to win, you can use all kinds of extreme means. "


    Indra took a deep breath and said, "teachers teach, disciples remember. Go on, teacher


    The emperor must continue: "the second decree of the king is to tell the nobles who took part in the war. As long as the Qin army is defeated and the cities of Kabul, LanChi and Wulei are recaptured. The officials of these three cities were appointed by the nobles who took part in the war. "


    Indra frowned again.


    This is equivalent to giving up the control of the three cities and handing them over to the nobility.


    Indra said, "teacher, is this appropriate?"


    Emperor Xu stroked his beard under his jaw. His eyes became sharper and sharper. He said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu is not a simple person. If we want to deal with Zhang Xiu, the price we have to pay is by no means the slightest bit. Therefore, in order to give full play to the fighting capacity of the noble army, we must give them enough benefits. After handing over the right to govern the cities of Lanchester, Wulei and Kabul to them. Then, it means that if they want to fight for power and profit for themselves, they will do their best. "


    Indra blinked, pondered and nodded.


    That''s what I mean.


    Although it costs three cities to do so now, if we can defeat Daqin, everything is worth it. As long as he defeated Daqin, Indra could deal with the internal problems of Kushan.


    Indra said, "teacher, what''s your third point?"


    The emperor said in a deep voice: "third, tell everyone that after winning this battle, the king will reward everyone. As long as the meritorious service is established, then you can get rid of the status and become an aristocrat from an ordinary person. In the past, when we were in Tianmen Mountain, we used this arrangement to boost our morale. Now, we have to do the same again. "


    Indra said, "this must be arranged."


    Indra agreed with the three plans proposed by the emperor.


    Because in today''s situation, Indra also knows that he has been forced to a desperate situation, and now he has no choice. If he is soft hearted, he will lose in the end.


    Indra immediately arranged for people to go on with the three orders.


    For ordinary Kushan soldiers, the last order is the most attractive.


    Everyone is in high spirits.


    Ready to make contributions.


    Of course, the temptation brought by the first point also made the whole army boiling. Because the city of Kabul is the most prosperous city, once it is broken, they can plunder it wantonly.


    This is their chance to get rich.


    So, everyone is excited, ready to fight into the city of Kabul.


    In fact, the first and third articles have little influence on the aristocracy. But the second is that it has great influence on the nobility. Once a big family can become the Lord of a city, it is to expand its own influence and strength.


    This is a great opportunity.


    All the nobles were also inspired.


    It''s all about excitement.


    Therefore, through the three decrees issued by Emperor Xu, the 600000 troops under Indra''s command were all excited, and their morale was high. They were already sharpening their swords and preparing to attack the city of Kabul.


    Indra led the army forward, but the news came out at this time.


    After the royal guards reported the information of the Kushan army, the information was reported layer upon layer and finally sent to Wang Yue. When Wang Yue heard the news, he was also shocked. He knew that the matter was serious, so he immediately reported it to Zhang Xiu.


    When Zhang Xiu learned of the situation, she also frowned.


    Indra, for his part, took such cruel measures. It can be said that even if Indra''s subordinates were a group of wastes, they would turn into jackals under the command of debauchery.


    Because the city of Kabul is a piece of fat.


    Guo Jia sat down, stroking his moustache under his jaw, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, although Indra''s policy is really shocking. But in fact, Indra''s policy gave his majesty an opportunity. This is both a danger and an opportunity. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to say?"Guo Jia replied: "the three decrees issued by Indra, the second and the third, actually have no influence. They are all inspirational. But the first command of Indra was cruel, saying that the soldiers would be allowed to slaughter the city of Kabul for three days. "


    "It''s an order to kill the city."


    "As soon as the news comes out, the people of the whole city of Kabul will be frightened."


    "This is an opportunity to call on the people to take part in the war."


    "The people of the whole city of Kabul are no less than hundreds of thousands of people in this city because it is a transportation hub, running from south to North and connecting east to west."


    Guo Jia flashed a bright light in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "so these hundreds of thousands of people in the whole city of Kabul will be gathered together because of the order of Indra."


    "For the time being, your majesty, there is no need to mobilize these people."


    "We just need to give an order first and tell the people of the whole city that once Indra breaks down the city, he will order the city to be slaughtered and all the people will be slaughtered."


    "So this period of time, let the people shut up."


    "Let everyone go back to the city and hide."


    Guo Jia said: "in this step, we only need to establish an image. That is, your majesty will not shrink back because of the killing of hundreds of thousands of tora troops, and will fight to the end. Tell the people of Kabul that the Qin army will certainly resist the army of Indra. "


    Pang Tong praised: "wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu also said: "the plan of fengxiao is indeed exquisite. With this arrangement, after we fight with Indra, we can order the people to join the war. In particular, in order to protect their homes, the people will actively participate in the war. This time, Indra seems to have encouraged the morale. In fact, he took a blind step and was misled by his wisdom. "


    "That''s exactly what it is," Guo said


    Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "Wang Yue, according to the analysis of fengxiao, we will arrange it immediately. Be sure to inform the people of the whole city of Kabul in the shortest possible time. Now the army led by Indra is getting closer and closer to the city of Kabul. It''s time for us to prepare for the first World War. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue bowed and turned to arrange.


    As soon as Guo Jia''s words changed, he continued: "Your Majesty, we still have one more thing to discuss. After careful consideration, we found that we had a certain disadvantage in the city of Kabul. We should get out of the city and take up the high ground to resist. "


    Pang Tong said: "in the city of Kabul, there is a certain advantage. There is also a certain advantage in resisting on the front line. How to resist this is up to your majesty. "

 Chapter 1384

    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought in her heart.


    There is a chance to resist the Indra army in the city of Kabul. Similarly, to seize the high ground and block the Indra army in the front line is also a war.


    In any case, it is feasible.


    But for Zhang Xiu, he is more inclined to go out of the city.


    Zhang Xiu immediately took the map near the city of Kabul, studied it carefully, looked at Guo Jia and Pang Tong, and said, "fifteen miles southwest of the city of Kabul, there is a Ferris ridge everywhere. This location is the only way from Peshawar in the south to Kabul in the north. Our army can be stationed in Motianling, and with the help of Motianling, we can constantly weaken the army of Indra. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "even if Motianling can''t resist the army of Indra, then we can still return to Kabul and garrison. My idea is to send troops to Motianling. "


    "Even if we send troops to Motianling, the city of Kabul needs to be guarded by a few troops," Guo said


    "So be it!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Since Guo Jia and Pang Tong had no opinion, Zhang Xiu did not delay any longer and immediately sent troops to the south. Starting from the city of Kabul, the army went all the way south. In a short time, they arrived at Motianling. Then they occupied the height of Motianling and began to build fortifications.


    Only in this way can we guard the main road leading to the city of Kabul.


    This hillside is not high.


    In fact, the altitude is less than 150 feet, but such a hillside is suitable for garrison, so Zhang Xiu''s army has been stationed near Motianling.


    Top of the mountain, in command.


    Zhang Xiu, Guo Jia, Pang Tong and others are already here.


    Zhang Xiu stood in the headquarters at the top of the mountain, overlooking the road at the foot of the mountain, and said in a deep voice: "this time the army of Kushan has come to kill us, we will let Indra drink our hatred here."


    Pang Tong said: "although Motianling is not steep, it is suitable for garrison. Our army is stationed on the mountain. Even if there are many Indra soldiers and many generals, in fact, it is not so easy to conquer Motianling. "


    Guo Jia said: "with your Majesty in command, this battle will be won."


    "Newspaper!"


    At this point, a sentinel quickly ran up the hillside. The sentinel came to Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, the army of Kushan has appeared twenty miles away in the South and is about to arrive at Motianling."


    Zhang Xiu said: "explore again!"


    "Here it is


    The sentry turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu stood on the top of the mountain, looking down from a commanding height, and murmured, "it''s finally coming."


    Guo Jia said: "indeed, the final battle of Kushan is coming. As long as the army led by Indra is defeated, the whole Kushan will no longer be able to resist his Majesty''s army. At that time, it will be easy to sweep away the whole Kushan. "


    "It''s true," said Zhang xiuhan


    For Zhang Xiu, as long as he wins the war, the whole Kushan will never be able to fight again. It''s easy for him to wipe out the Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order to the soldiers on the mountain to prepare for war.


    As time goes by.


    Towards noon, Indra''s 600000 troops finally arrived at the location of Motianling. The vast army, across the official road, winding long, far away, like a snake in general.


    Its momentum is incomparable.


    Its momentum is hard to resist.


    The troops were stationed in the south of Motianling, and the more than 600000 troops alone were stationed for more than ten miles. Such a lineup, it is too large, it seems to be incomparable forever.


    Indra didn''t care.


    Now Indra, full of anger, wants revenge.


    Indra didn''t take a rest immediately, so he took the army to the foot of Motianling. This time Indra was not in a hurry to attack, because he now had the advantage.


    Once upon a time in Tianmen Mountain, Zhang Xiu arrived with soldiers. Zhang Xiu, with his retinue, swaggered and swaggered at the foot of the mountain. Now Indra also came to the foot of the mountain with his soldiers. He looked up and said, "where is Zhang Xiu?"


    The deep and loud voice spread to the mountain.


    In the headquarters, Zhang Xiu looked down the mountain and saw the people at the foot of the mountain.


    Just from the top to the bottom of the mountain, because the distance is too far, you can only see people''s shadow, you can''t see the true appearance. Zhang Xiu looked at the Indra who had brought the soldiers to the foot of the mountain, but her brain turned quickly.


    All of a sudden, he had a flash of inspiration in his head and immediately said, "Wang Yue, inform the artillery battalion to come."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue turned to inform.


    Zhang Xiu was standing in the headquarters, and he cried out: "Indra, you were defeated last time in Lanshi city. Now, it''s the army with kusana. Are you here to bury the whole Kushan army? "


    "When I was in Kabul, I saw your dirty tricks.""In order to win, you not only sent people to assassinate, but also encouraged your soldiers by slaughtering the city. As a monarch, I despise and despise your conduct. "


    "It''s really contemptible of you to do so."


    "Indra, that''s all."


    Zhang Xiu''s voice was loud, and she continued: "compared with the old weisudiva, you just don''t deserve to give weisudiva shoes. Now, you are coming with a large army to capture the city of Kabul. You''re here now. You''re here to die. But since you are in a hurry to reincarnate, I can help you


    Indra was at the foot of the mountain and heard Zhang Xiu''s words.


    His heart was filled with anger.


    Damn Zhang Xiu.


    This is Zhang Xiu.


    This mouth, as always, is so tricky, but now Indra has the advantage, but he is not willing to attack like this. He wants to use the current advantage to humiliate Zhang Xiu.


    Indra, with both hands on his back, almost tried his best to roar: "Zhang Xiu dog thief, your mouth is as bad as ever."


    "Well, this time you are Zhang Xiu, but you are only an army of over 200000. However, the total number of troops under my leadership is six or seven hundred thousand, and the total number of auxiliary troops is seven or eight hundred thousand. "


    "Now, you are sure to lose."


    "If I were you, I would not resist any more and just roll down and surrender."


    "You can save a dog''s life by doing this."


    "If you fight to the end, you will lose in the end. Zhang Xiu, don''t think you have the height of Motianling. Now the army led by Wang is strong and powerful, and there are countless weapons. "


    Indra exclaimed, "even if it''s bombardment, the king can blow up the small Ferris ridge. At that time, you will lose this geographical advantage of Motianling, and you will be completely finished. Zhang Xiu, if you surrender early, you can avoid death, and the soldiers under your command will not die because of your insistence. "


    When Zhang Xiu was at the top of the mountain, she heard Indra''s words, but she sneered.


    He is now perfunctory with Indra.


    Not long after that, a special general in charge of the artillery battalion rushed up to Zhang Xiu and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiuyan said, "can you bombard the location of Indra at the foot of the mountain?"

 Chapter 1385

    The general in charge of the artillery battalion was named Yan Fei.


    This man is of ordinary origin.


    In the early years, he was an ordinary soldier in the army. After the artillery battalion was set up in the army, he was transferred to the artillery battalion to do things. Originally, he was not a chief general, but a person in charge of shooting. However, Yan Fei was a big man, big and thick, but he was very accurate.


    In a short time, he has become the commander of the artillery battalion.


    Hearing Zhang Xiu''s words, Yan Fei looked down from the mountain, frowned and said, "Your Majesty, it''s difficult. It''s very close because of the shooting from the mountain. Unless it''s behind Motianling. But the problem is that it is difficult to aim at the gun from the rear of Motianling, which is the difficulty. "


    Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed and said: "I''ll ask you a word, can you bombard Indra. The man at the foot of the mountain is Indra. If you kill him with one shot, it will be enough for you to become an official


    When Yan Fei heard this, he became excited.


    To be an official, to be an official!


    This is the most desirable treatment.


    For people like Yan Fei, to have a title is to accumulate virtue for eight generations. Even, for Yan Fei, if he did not have special achievements, it would be impossible for him to have a title in his life.


    So this time, it''s an opportunity.


    Yan Fei clenched his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, I''m going to do it. The last general''s Cannon will definitely hit. "


    Zhang Xiu squinted and said, "one shot, you only have one shot. If you can''t hit it once, you can''t bombard Indra after Indra retreats. So take your chance. "


    "The end will understand!"


    Yan Fei clenched his teeth and solemnly said, "Your Majesty, please delay for me. I will definitely aim at the location of Indra in the shortest time, and then bombard him."


    "Well, I''ll delay for you."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, with a bright smile on her face.


    At the moment, Indra at the foot of the mountain saw that Zhang Xiu didn''t answer for a long time, but he didn''t give up in his heart. He said again: "Zhang Xiu, why don''t you talk. Are you afraid? Are you counsellor. If I were you, I would have gone back to Daqin. I would not have come to Kushan. Because Kushan is not far away from Daqin, you are not acclimatized when you come here. "


    Zhang Xiu replied coldly, "Indra, you are really self righteous. Don''t you see that thousands of people in Wulei City, Lanshi city and Kabul city welcome me. They all support me and now they are my loyal supporters. Such a situation will never be achieved in the lifetime of Indra. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "Indra, I''m not afraid to tell you, because you issued the order to slaughter the city. I spread the news to the whole city of Kabul, even to the northern city of Lanshi and Wulei. Now, the people in the whole area know that you are going to slaughter the city... "


    Zhang Xiu talks about it.


    As he spoke, he turned to Yan Fei.


    Yan Fei had already called for several artillery soldiers, and the party grabbed some lime fees, and even drew a line on the ground, and then set up a wooden pole at the top.


    This wooden pole is aimed at the position.


    Lime fee marking is to avoid confusion.


    Double guarantee, at least one more chance to hit Indra. After Yan Fei and others retreated to the other side of the mountain, Zhang Xiu did not care about Yan Fei and others'' movements, but looked at Indra at the foot of the mountain.


    Zhang Xiu''s words became sharper and sharper, saying: "Indra, in the past, I could kill vesuvativa. You are nothing more than the son of visudeva, and it is easy to kill you. "


    As soon as Indra heard Zhang Xiu''s words, he said: "Zhang Xiu, you don''t think the wind is too strong to flash your tongue. If you want to kill me, send troops to fight. Unfortunately, you dare not fight. People all say that you are the God of war. But in fact, in my opinion, you Zhang Xiu is just a gangster, not worth mentioning. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "Indra, it''s not up to you to judge whether I''m the God of war or a gangster."


    Indra sneered and said, "Zhang Xiu, even if you are the God of war, you will be defeated today. Today next year will be your memorial day for Zhang Xiu. You can''t leave when Zhang Xiu comes to guishuang. Motianling is the place where your bones are buried. "


    Zhang Xiu is still perfunctory Indra, he said: "Indra, last time, vesuvativa also talked to me like this. In the end, sutiva was killed. This time, you said that to me again. You, too, are sure to lose. "


    Zhang Xiu at the moment, and Indra''s sarcasm.


    There''s a constant mockery of each other.


    While Zhang Xiu and Indra were talking, Yan Fei and his men had retreated to the back of the mountain, where all the artillery were. He estimated the distance from the top of the mountain to Indra, and also estimated the position from the top of the mountain to where he was. After careful estimation, he connected the wooden stick on the top of the mountain with a lime line to fix the direction.


    Originally, Yan Fei was preparing to fire with a big gun.


    However, Yan Fei did not feel safe.So Yan Fei drew ten cannons and lined them up. Then he calibrated them by himself. After aiming one by one, he arranged for each person to stand.


    At this moment, there is a gentle breeze.


    The wind speed is very low.


    The impact on the shells is small.


    Yan Fei looked up at the position of the pole on the top of the mountain. His eyes showed a firm look.


    Success or failure depends on this.


    Yan Fei took a deep breath and ordered: "fire, fire!"


    A torch, fire it now.


    When the fuse is burning, in a flash, the sound of guns rings, and the muzzle smoke disperses. Each shell flies out of the gun bore. It has passed an arc in the air, and then it flies up from the air. In a flash, it reaches the top of the mountain, and then it flies to the other side of the mountain.


    The shells roared, and in the twinkling of an eye, they went straight to the place where Indra was. Zhang Xiu stood on the top of the mountain, saw the shells flying past, and raised a bright smile at the corner of her mouth.


    Here we go!


    This time!


    Zhang Xiu did not speak any more, waiting for the shell to fall.


    In the twinkling of an eye, the shell reached the top of Indra''s head. At this time, Indra found the shell. In a flash, Indra was so scared that he exclaimed, "run, there are shells!"


    He turned and ran behind him.


    It''s just that Indra has just taken two steps, and the first shell has landed and exploded.


    "Boom!"


    Violent explosion, suddenly sounded.


    This is six steps away from the landing site. After the shell fell, the ground burst and the soil flew. Indra was also thrown out by the impact wave.


    As soon as Indra landed, the rest of the shells landed.


    "Boom


    Continuous explosions, one after another.


    After the other nine shells landed, the area where Indra was located turned into a sea of fire, forming an explosion area. At this moment, Indra, in which people were already blown up, had no bones.


    At this moment, the Kushan army was stunned.


    How is that possible?


    Indra is dead. How can it be? The generals of Kushan''s army were all in a panic. Originally, because of the existence of Indra, they were united, but now Indra was killed, and the morale of the army suddenly disintegrated.


    The situation suddenly collapsed.

 Chapter 1386

    Emperor Xu''s cheek twitched, and his face showed an incredible look.


    Dead!


    Indra is dead!


    You know, it took him more than ten years to cultivate Indra. Even in such a way, he pressed down on Indra, hoping to take this opportunity to help the dragon.


    In fact, he did.


    By supporting Indra, the emperor made Indra wipe out the other princes of Kushan and become king of Kushan. If there is no accident, even the emperor must think that Indra will become the great emperor of Kushan.


    But now, everything is falling apart.


    With the death of Indra, all his plans were completely lost.


    Even Kushan will be in turmoil.


    But he was also a decisive man. He immediately looked at sadika, the Brahman nobleman of Kushan.


    This is the leader of the Kushan aristocracy.


    Hundreds of thousands of private soldiers of Kushan nobles were all under the command of sadika.


    Indra died, and Indra was young and childless, and the generals in the army were unable to convince the people. At this critical moment, the emperor must immediately say, "sadika, the king died in battle, and there was no leader in the army. You are now leading the noble army under your command to block the possible pursuit of the Qin army. When the army leaves safely and you return with the army, I will let everyone support you and make you king of Kushan. "


    Sadika''s heart jumped when she heard it.


    It''s exciting.


    He has a high prestige among Brahman nobles, but he has never been an official because he disdains to be an official. By virtue of his identity, to be an official is naturally the most top official, but neither vesudeva nor Indra wants to be. After all, his strength and prestige are high, and he has been suppressed by the king, so we should avoid his strength increasing too much.


    Now sadika sees an opportunity.


    He had the chance to become the king of kusana, from a Brahman nobleman to the king of kusana.


    This is his opportunity.


    Of course, sadika knows the risks.


    The premise is to block the Qin army.


    If he can''t stop the front of the Qin army, he will be crushed by the Qin army. But even if there are risks, they are accompanied by opportunities, which sadika can hardly refuse.


    Sadika immediately said, "emperor, remember your promise, I promise."


    "Good!"


    Emperor Xu was relieved.


    He immediately ordered that Indra, who had died on the battlefield, should no longer be in charge, and that the Kushan army, which was subordinate to the government, should withdraw as soon as possible. He did not dare to delay any longer.


    At the time of emperor Xu''s withdrawal, sadika had already looked at the main generals of the noble army under his command and said in a deep voice: "just now emperor Xu has said that if Indra died in the war, there can be no king in the army."


    "So prepare to make me king of kusana. As long as I become the king of kusana, we will get more benefits. So now, cheer me up and send orders. The whole army is ready to meet the pursuit of the Qin army. "


    "As long as we retreat safely in this war, I will reward them one by one when we go back. What''s more, when we defeat the Qin army, the rewards will only be more, not less. "


    "So give me a fight."


    Sadika said: "order to go down, array ready for the first World War."


    "Yes


    All noble generals were excited and moved quickly. For them, once sadika became the king of kusana, the whole kusana, the spring of belonging to the nobility, would come, and the nobility would get more benefits.


    This is an opportunity!


    This layer by layer of command to convey, the army quickly arrayed.


    The strength of these nobles was no less than 300000.


    Such a huge force had not been evacuated, but had been arrayed, and without confusion and turbulence, the situation was temporarily stabilized.


    When the noble army of Kushan was preparing for the battle quickly, Zhang Xiu, in the headquarters on the top of the mountain, heard the sound of the artillery, and then noticed the situation of the artillery bombing site at the foot of the mountain. When the smoke and dust dispersed, Zhang Xiu saw a corpse, especially the previous location of Indra. There were no bones left, even the corpses were not found.


    Indra, dead!


    Zhang Xiu confirmed that Indra was killed by a single blow, and her face showed a bright smile. Especially when others look down, it is obvious that Kushan''s army has begun to retreat in desperation, and there is a turbulent situation.


    Under this premise, Zhang Xiu decisively ordered to attack. The two armies led by Gan Ning and Zhang Ren rushed out of the Motianling mountain, and then quickly went down to the Kushan army at the foot of the mountain.


    Soon, the two armies fought.


    The Qin army led by Gan Ning and Zhang Ren were really elite. In particular, the soldiers of the two armies noticed that Indra had been killed. The soldiers of the Qin army were all fighting and extremely excited. So when they rushed down, the Qin army''s offensive was extremely fierce.


    When the two armies fought, Kueishan''s strength was not weak.


    In particular, the number of troops is large.


    Even though the Qin army had a sharp attack, the nobles under sadika''s command, in order to make sadika the king of Kushan, did not give advice, but they resisted.Even if the fighting capacity of these noble private soldiers of Kushan was affected, the fighting capacity of the single round soldiers was far less than that of the Qin army, but the continuous and dense troops kept moving forward, so that although the Qin army was fierce, even if it killed countless soldiers, it could not destroy the strength of Kushan in a short time.


    Sadika was in the rear of the town, and he did not withdraw, because once he withdrew, the hundreds of thousands of troops would withdraw, and even begin to lose like a mountain.


    As long as sadika is there, all the generals will not leave and fight hard. As long as everyone fights to the death, the army will not collapse.


    Therefore, although the Qin army had a certain advantage in the fighting between the two sides, in fact, the fighting at the foot of the mountain continued, but Zhang Xiu''s Qin army did not have the upper hand.


    Zhang Xiu saw the fighting at the foot of the mountain.


    He felt a little queer.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Guo Jia and said, "fengxiao, do you find that something is wrong. Under normal circumstances, some elite members of the Kushan army have been evacuated. All the troops of the Kushan army will not stay and continue to fight. Therefore, under such a premise, the Kushan army should be defeated as soon as it appears to withdraw. But now, not only is there no such thing as a mountain of defeat, but it''s a fight to the death. It''s strange to think that such a situation happens to anyone. "


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "Your Majesty''s words are very true, and I feel strange. Your majesty, since the other side is fighting to the death, our strong attack is actually meaningless. We should not fight for a long time. Let the army withdraw. "


    "It is!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded in agreement with Guo Jia''s analysis.


    Zhang Xiu''s number of troops is less than that of the other side. In the case of guishuang''s first World War, if Zhang Xiu confronts head-on, his army will suffer too much damage, which Zhang Xiu does not want to see.


    So he preferred to retreat.


    Zhang Xiu immediately arranged for the soldiers to withdraw. With the order of Ming Jin to withdraw, the soldiers of Qin army quickly left the battlefield and returned to the mountain of Motianling.


    Ganning and Zhang Ren are leading the army to fight. When they hear Mingjin''s order to retreat, they are reluctant. But the problem is that there has been no breakthrough, so even if Gan Ning and Zhang Ren still have a war, they can only withdraw.


    The army quickly left the battlefield and returned to the mountains.


    Sadika also had a big smile on her face.


    Gains and losses blocked the Qin army.


    Otherwise, his old life will be lost here.


    Zhang Xiu also found that the Kushan army began to withdraw, some of which had been withdrawn before, but now the Kushan army, which was responsible for the mat, began to withdraw when the Qin army stopped fighting.


    After Zhang Xiu looked at it, she said: "this is really strange. Because of the death of tuora in battle, the other party should collapse. However, it was in order, without any confusion. "


    Pang Tong said, "Your Majesty, let''s take another look."


    Guo Jia also said: "when the troops leave, news will be sent back soon. I agree with Shi Yuan''s analysis. At present, we just need to wait a little longer. "


    Zhang xiuhan said: "arrange sentry and make a careful inquiry."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue gave his fist.

 Chapter 1387

    After the withdrawal of guishuang army, they stationed in the rear, but the whole official soldiers of guishuang were full of grief, and their morale was unstable. It can be said that the death of Indra made the people of the officers and soldiers of Kushan lose their hearts.


    The emperor must have paid no attention to this.


    Indra is dead. It''s meaningless to mourn and think about Indra.


    What we need to do now is to stabilize the situation.


    So when the army led by sadika returned to the army, Emperor Xu was relieved. Now this decadent situation has finally stabilized and will not be defeated immediately.


    As long as their army is not defeated immediately after the death of Indra, there is still the possibility of World War I.


    You can still fight with Zhang Xiu.


    There''s no way to win or lose.


    The emperor must immediately arrange for people to send for sadika and many noble generals of Kushan. In addition, Emperor Xu also called many of the army''s Officialdom generals to the Chinese army.


    All of you gather in the Chinese army.


    This number, as many as sixty or seventy people, are the chief generals of Kushan. All of them were together. The camp was full of people, and their eyes fell on the emperor Xu who was sitting on the left throne.


    Emperor must be a military strategist.


    In addition to Indra, it can be said that emperor Xu is the sea god needle. At least there will be no turbulence for the time being. Therefore, these confused official generals are waiting for emperor Xu''s decision.


    The emperor''s eyes fell on sadika, who was on the right side of the theme.


    Then, I look at the rest.


    His eyes swept over all the people present, and finally withdrew his eyes and said in a deep voice: "the king went to declare war today, and finally died under Zhang Xiu''s sneak attack. Even the king has no bones left, and even his bones can''t be recovered. "


    "In this first battle, we were defeated."


    "Completely defeated."


    "For Kushan, the king is our mainstay and our prime. With the presence of the king, all of us have the courage to fight to the death, the courage to fight to the death, and we are not in a panic. "


    "Now without the king, we all panic and lose the backbone."


    The emperor must say earnestly and slowly: "at other times, or under other circumstances, when the king died on the spot, we may not have the need to resist, or even need to resist any more."


    "But now, it''s not."


    "Now we need to fight again."


    "Why do I say we need a war?"


    "The reason is very simple. All the people present are the nobles of Kushan. They are all people from Kushan''s family background. Whether it''s you, me or him, it''s what Zhang Xiu wants to eradicate. "


    The emperor must throw the ground and say: "if you are willing to be abolished by Zhang Xiu? If you are willing, you will become civilians and live with ordinary Dalits, then you can give up resistance. "


    Everyone frowned at the speech.


    They are not willing to give up their aristocracy.


    A person is used to rich clothes and good food, to clothes and food, and to being served. But all of a sudden, it''s impossible to hand over everything.


    When it comes to interests, no one wants to.


    Therefore, no matter the official generals or the noble generals headed by sadika, they all spoke against surrender.


    No one is willing to surrender.


    Even if Indra died, which affected the morale of the army, the generals were not willing to surrender.


    Emperor must listen to people''s words, raise hand down pressure, signal everyone quiet down. When everyone stopped talking, the emperor must look solemn and continue: "the king died in the battle, and there is no king in the army. However, a snake can''t do without a head, so a new king must be elected to ensure that the army has someone in charge. "


    Speaking of this, the aristocratic generals all looked at sadika.


    They all expect sadika to be king.


    As for the ordinary generals in the army, they didn''t know the news, so they were very scared. Because under such a premise, even they don''t know how to face it.


    But emperor Xu didn''t care and continued: "because your majesty has no children, and now all your brothers are dead. And in a hurry, there is no one else, so my suggestion is that Lord sadika should be king and directly in charge of the kusana. "


    Boom!!


    As soon as this remark came out, it immediately triggered a discussion.


    The people who talked about this were mainly the generals of the government, whose faces were filled with confusion. You know, although sadika was born into a noble family, and his identity was not simple, in fact, sadika had nothing.


    How can you be the leader of a country?


    This is not going to work!


    So there was a lot of discussion.


    As for the generals in the army who were originally from the nobility, the private generals sent by the nobility were very happy. For them, sadika became king and king of kusana, which was excellent."Sergeant, I have different opinions."


    At this time, some officials came forward.


    His name is moye.


    He was also very prestigious in the army. He stood up and glanced at sadika. His eyes fell on Dixu. He threw his voice on the ground and said, "Dixu, this army should choose the king and stabilize the morale. No matter how you choose, it should not be sadika''s turn. Now, even if you don''t choose people in the army, you can at least choose from the royal blood in China. "


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "it''s too late to choose from China. Moreover, sadika has high prestige and has a high influence among the Kushan nobles. Now it is the most appropriate arrangement for him to take over the throne. "


    "No, I''m not convinced!"


    Moye held his head high and gave a resounding answer.


    He glanced at sadika with an angry look, because in the current situation, even if Indra is not there, at least, it is not sadika''s turn.


    Even moye had an idea in his heart that he had high prestige in the army. Then, with Indra gone, he can also be in charge of kusana.


    Sadika squinted and stood up from the table. He said in a deep voice, "what''s wrong with you, moye. Only when I am king of Kushan can I integrate all the forces of the army and defeat the army of Daqin. "


    "I can do it too," moye said


    "Unfortunately, you don''t have the chance," sadika said


    "Whew!"


    Just then, behind sadika, there was a burst of air. But it was a sleeve arrow, which suddenly shot out of the dark and came to moye''s body.


    At this moment, moye is hard to resist.


    There''s no reaction time at all.


    "Puchi!"


    The sharp arrow pierced moye''s chest and passed by. Fortunately, the strength of the arrow is not big, so the arrow just goes through moye''s back and doesn''t move forward.


    Drop by drop of blood, from the arrow on the ground.


    Moye had a look of pain on his face and an incredible look in his eyes. He pointed to sadika and murmured, "sadika, you, you..."


    Now, as soon as he said this, he trembled and fell on the ground.


    No more breath.


    Sadika''s big sleeve flicked, his eyes sharp as a knife, swept all the people present, especially staring at the military general of the government, and said in a deep voice: "who else doesn''t agree with me to succeed as the king of Kushan?"


    The crowd was silent, and no one spoke.


    Because no one saw who killed moye in the dark. If they stand up and get shot again, it''s not worth it.


    Emperor must see this scene, but frown.


    According to his plan, he would not take such an extremely cruel way to kill people. He would persuade everyone through his mouth, so that all the generals in the government would agree with sadika''s claim to be king.


    But now, sadika''s direct killing makes things more complicated. Even the official generals in the army may have doubts even if they don''t talk about it now.


    This is the worry of emperor Xu.

 Chapter 1388

    On Motianling, in the headquarters.


    Zhang Xiu quietly waiting for news, now to guiguishuang expedition, Zhang Xiu is not anxious, so he is confident that this battle, the final victory is him. As time went on, by evening, the sentinel Pegasus had come back.


    After climbing the mountain, the sentinel came to Zhang Xiu''s side and reported: "Your Majesty, there is news from guishuang. After the killing of Indra, he was presided over by Emperor Xu, and sadika was elected as the new king of Kushan. "


    "Sadika?"


    Zhang Xiu frowned.


    Unexpectedly, after the death of an Indra, Kushan was not in turmoil. On the contrary, a new king of Kushan was elected in a short time, which was quite unexpected.


    Zhang Xiu said, "is there any news about sadika?"


    The sentry immediately replied, "tell father, this sadika is the head of the noble of Kushan. This time, all the noble private soldiers who suffered from the kusana were respected by sadika. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know, go down!"


    The sentry turned and stepped down.


    Zhang Xiu looked at Pang Tong and Guo Jia and said in a deep voice, "today''s Kushan army has a new emperor because of the operation of emperor Xu. Moreover, because Indra was killed in the first explosion, sadika would certainly take revenge for Indra. In a word, we will definitely face a hard war next. What do you think we should do about this war? "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, there is no way to do this. We can only fight with all our strength."


    Pang Tong, with a bright smile on his face, said, "Your Majesty, I think we should try our best to win the first World War. Maybe there is another way to defeat the enemy. "


    Zhang xiudao: "how to say?"


    Pang Tong spread out the map, pointed to the location of Motianling on the map, and continued: "Your Majesty, there is water behind Motianling where we are. But to the south of Motianling, it''s not easy to get water. It''s a little far away from Poyang. "


    "Even to the south of Motianling, few trees block the sun."


    "Kushan has hundreds of thousands of troops. They consume countless amounts of water every day, and they are exposed to the sun for a day or two, so they can support it. But after a long time, the location of the Kushan army may change and withdraw 30 Li later. "


    "There''s a forest out there that blocks the sun."


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "once the Kushan army can''t bear the sun. In the end, if we go back to the rear 30 miles and camp, then we have a chance to destroy each other. "


    Guo Jia said: "everything depends on whether guishuang will fall into the trap. As long as the Kushan fall into the trap, the war will be over. But it''s not easy to succeed. "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said in a deep voice: "Shi Yuan''s suggestions and plans are really good. We can go in this direction in this war. And in fact, with the help of Tianmen Mountain, we are on the defensive side. Now, let guishuang attack. When guishuang attacks for a long time and lacks fighting spirit, he will retreat. At that time, we will have a chance to win. "


    For Zhang Xiu, now the best way is still to defend.


    In search of opportunities.


    After the general plan was finalized, Zhang Xiu stopped talking about government affairs and began to talk about other things.


    A night without words.


    The next day, early in the morning.


    The army led by Zhang Xiu is still sitting on the Motianling mountain. When the army starts to be busy and continues to be in their respective positions, not far away, there are already rumbling drums.


    Standing on the mountain of Motianling, looking out, you can see that on the official road in the south, there is a huge army coming to block out the sky and the sun.


    It was sadika who led the army.


    Sadika led 600000 troops, arrived near Motianling, the army stationed.


    Sadika fully learned from Indra''s lesson. He didn''t go forward any more. With a wave of his hand, he ordered, "artillery, prepare, bomb Motianling for me. This Motianling is a highland, but I blew it out. "


    Herald, announce the order immediately.


    A gun, quickly in place, and then aimed at the location of Motianling.


    "Fire, fire!"


    With a cry, one by one soldiers began to ignite, and the fuse was burning. A moment later, there was a roaring sound. Shells flew out of the gun bore and reached the Motianling mountain in the twinkling of an eye.


    "Boom! Boom


    There was a continuous explosion.


    The sound of one after another, and the constant explosion, making the soil on the Motianling fly, and even some of the Motianling tremor, constantly shaking.


    Under the heavy artillery bombardment, Zhang Xiu and the rest of the soldiers hid as far as possible to avoid being bombarded by the artillery, but the artillery bombardment was too heavy.


    The mountain is constantly shaking.


    The soil kept splashing.


    Zhang Xiu hiding in the ditch, see such a scene, eyes narrowed up. After thinking about it, Zhang Xiu looked at Wang Yue and said, "go and call Yan Fei for me.""Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately arranged it.


    Not long later, Yan Fei came up. Today, his official position and title have been promoted.


    Because he shot and killed Indra.


    Yan Fei saw Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "Yan Fei, look carefully at the Artillery Location of guishuang army outside the mountain. You can see if you can directly fight back and bomb each other''s cannons. "


    Yan Fei nodded, his head stretched out of the ditch and looked carefully out of the mountain. Even if the mountain is shaking and the soil is flying, you can still see clearly the position of the other side''s cannon when you look out, so you can estimate the position of the other side.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "how about Yan Fei?"


    Yan Fei licked his dry lips and gritted his teeth: "Your Majesty, don''t worry. It''s no problem. The range of our cannons can be longer, so we can bomb the location of the other cannons in turn. "


    Zhang Xiu showed a smile on her face and said, "OK, it''s up to you. Give me a hard fight back."


    "Here it is


    Yan Fei answers and turns to leave.


    As he walked, he said: "Damn, these damned Kushans have been bombing with cannons. This time, let''s watch Lao Tzu fire his guns and bomb your cannons. It''s a bunch of idiots. This cannon can fire at different distances, but it''s almost gathered together. It''s really suicidal! "


    Not long after, Yan Fei returned to the place where the artillery was placed. At this time, Yan Fei said, "cheer up for me, then aim at the artillery position of the Kushan army outside the mountain, and then fight back directly."


    One by one, move quickly.


    Everyone was excited.


    Finally, it''s time for them to make contributions again.


    For artillery, it is not necessary for them to fight in person until the last moment. So each artillery, has been looking forward to, hope to be able to make contributions through artillery.


    "Light up!"


    Yan Fei gave an order.


    All the artillery were armed with torches. In a short time, they had already ignited the leads of all the cannons. Just listen to the ignition line burning, a moment later, there will be a cannon roaring.


    A shell, from the air.


    This group of shells flying in the air, fast forward, in a twinkling of an eye, it has reached the location of the Kushan artillery over. In an instant, the shells exploded, and the artillery on the ground was immediately destroyed. Even many Kushan artillery were directly killed.


    Originally, there were many guns in Kushan, but now they were heavily bombed. For a time, many guns were constantly destroyed, and the scene was in chaos.


    "Asshole, asshole!"


    When sadika saw this scene, his face was full of anger. His plan is to use artillery to flatten Motianling, and even if Zhang Xiu can be killed directly, it would be better.


    But now, not only did they fail to flatten Motianling, but also Zhang Xiu was not killed. On the contrary, their own artillery were all killed in the other side''s artillery bombing.


    In this case, the Supreme Court decided.


    Sadika looked cold and said, "attack, attack


    He gave orders to attack.


    If cannons don''t work, attack Motianling. Sadika has enough troops. He does not believe that with his 600000 troops, he will not be able to win a mere skyscraper.

 Chapter 1389

    Emperor Xu sighed in his heart. At this time, he could only stand up.


    His eyes fell on the official generals, and he said in a deep voice: "gentlemen, what we need in today''s army is unity, not division. If we split up, we would be defeated by the Qin army. If we split, everything in our hands will be lost. In the end, we will be slaves to our country. "


    "In order to resist Zhang Xiu, we must gather strength."


    "All forces are concentrated."


    "Everyone''s going all out."


    "Although there are quite good generals in our army, it is impossible for them to really convince all parties. However, Lord sadika is different. He has a distinguished status and can win the approval of domestic officials. And the reason why you were able to evacuate safely before was because Lord sadika led the rear hall. "


    Emperor Xu said with a smile: "if there is no rear Hall of sadika, we must have been overtaken by the Qin army and started to flee in a hurry."


    "So, Lord sadika, you''re kind to us first."


    "And Lord sadika is calm in the face of the enemy''s attack. So today, Lord sadika is the most suitable person to be king. "


    "Only by being king at once can the morale of the army be stabilized."


    "Now we must seize the time to make sure that Lord sadika is king, and then consider sending troops."


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "of course, I will also make demands. If Lord sadika is able to defeat Daqin, then it is nothing for us to submit to Lord sadika. It is quite reasonable to regard Lord sadika as the Lord of Kushan. But if sadika can''t defeat the king of Qin, once I come back to China, I will re select the right person to be the king of Kushan. "


    At this point, the emperor must look at sadika and say, "Lord sadika, what do you think?"


    "No problem!"


    Sadika didn''t even think about it. She just answered.


    For sadika, he knew very well that if he could not stop the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, and if he could not destroy the Qin army, they would be killed.


    There is no way out.


    Only forward.


    Therefore, it is not difficult for sadika to meet the requirements of emperor Xu.


    Instead, it''s helping sadika get a foothold.


    As sadika''s words came out, all the official generals present no longer held any objection. However, some people doubted and said, "Lord Dixu, in case we can''t stop the Qin army. But after returning to Peshawar, Lord sadika is not willing to hand over military power? "


    The emperor must hold his head high and throw his head to the ground and say in a voice: "if that is the case, then I will live and die with you. As long as our emperor has to fight against sadika in one day, "he said


    "I, I listen to Lord Dixu."


    The general who questioned answered without further words.


    The rest echoed.


    At this time, Emperor Xu thought about sadika, bowed to him and said, "Lord sadika, please take your seat."


    The theme of the camp has always been vacant.


    Now that everything was settled, Emperor Xu asked sadika to take the throne. At this moment, sadika''s heart is also happy, because up to now, everything has been settled, and there is no problem any more.


    Sadika''s heart, inevitably excited.


    It''s done!


    Sadika took a deep breath, stepped forward to the throne, shook his sleeve robe and sat down.


    The emperor must bow himself and say, "see you king!"


    Other people also stand up one after another, bow to salute a way: "see the king!"


    "See you king!"


    "See you king!" One voice after another echoed in the barracks. This voice has lasted for a long time, and even the faces of the generals are full of perseverance, because now with the new king, they don''t have to worry about no one''s decision.


    Sadika waved his hand and said, "everyone, sit down."


    After thanking all the people, they took their seats.


    Sadika faced the crowd and said in a deep voice, "it''s very hard for you to help our king resist the Qin army. All the officers of the government have been promoted and their salaries have doubled this month. As for the rest of the aristocratic families, after defeating the Qin army and seizing the cities of Kabul, LanChi and Wulei, we will select the outstanding ones from among you to hold the post. "


    "Thank you


    Thank you again.


    For the generals in the official Army, with sadika''s orders, they are promoted one by one, and even get more money. This is the best. These people also know that this is to buy people''s hearts, is to buy them, so a general''s heart, all full of joy under.


    Sadika raised her hand and pressed down. After a moment, everyone was quiet.


    There''s no one to talk to.


    Sadika said once again: "everyone, now we are at war with Daqin. It''s very important. If we fail to win this war, the consequences will be extremely unimaginable. So now, you need to work together with me to resist Zhang Xiu''s army and drive Zhang Xiu out of Kushan. "All the people should make peace immediately.


    For the generals present, they also hope to expel the Qin army and maintain their aristocratic status. Because once defeated, Zhang Xiu''s army rolled over, and eventually these aristocrats would be swept away.


    That''s why people are united.


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "Dixu, you are still a military strategist. Now we are at war with Daqin, and we are blocked in Motianling. The military strategist thinks that what should we do to defeat the army of Daqin and win the war. "


    In the eyes of emperor Xu, a bright light suddenly flashed over him and said, "in this war, we have defeated Zhang Xiu''s army by treating him in his own way."


    "What do you say?" sadika said


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "when Zhang Xiu attacked Lanshi City, in fact, at the beginning, the army had been blocked in Tianmen Mountain to the north of Lanshi City, and could not move forward."


    "But in the end, Zhang Xiu easily captured Tianmen Mountain and LAN''s city. The reason for this is that Zhang Xiu arranged for people to set up an incident in LAN''s city, captured Lan''s city and cut off the back road, which led to the defeat of the army of LAN''s city in Tianmen Mountain. "


    "What we are facing now is the same situation. The Qin army is in Motianling."


    "Blocking our way."


    "For us, it''s causing quite a lot of trouble."


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "so under the current situation, I suggest that our attack on the Qin army should be divided into two steps."


    Today''s emperor Xu has a plan.


    When sadika saw that emperor Xu was confident, he leaned forward slightly and said in a deep voice, "military strategist, what do you want to do? You are a wise man in the army. Now we can only rely on you for advice. "


    Both eyes fell on emperor Xu.


    Waiting for the emperor to elaborate the plan.


    Emperor Xu enjoyed the crowd''s eyes and said: "the first step is still to attack the Motianling. We can only be strong attack, in order to attract the attention of Zhang Xiu


    "The second step is to arrange a small group of soldiers to step back for a certain distance and take a detour to Kabul city. As long as this is successful, it will be easy to capture the empty city of Kabul. "


    "That''s the two-step plan."


    The emperor must say in a deep voice: "this is the current plan. Please judge."


    When sadika heard this, she thought.


    Dixu''s plan is not a good one, because it is not workable. A wise man like Zhang Xiu, since he led his troops to Motianling, there must be troops in Kabul. It''s not easy to surprise the city of Kabul.


    A moment later, sadika continued: "commander, if I remember well, Ji Mu had adopted such a method at the beginning, intending to take a detour to seize Wulei City, but in the end, he was ambushed in Wulei City, so that his success fell short."


    Emperor must say: "I just put forward suggestions, and now, for a moment, I can''t think of a more suitable way. Moreover, our main direction of attack is still in the Ferris ridge. "


    After hearing this, sadika nodded and said, "what the military adviser said is true. Now we really don''t have many choices, and we can only do it this way."


    "If the order goes on, the army will rest for a day. Tomorrow morning, we will attack Motianling. As for the proposal to divide the forces, it is unnecessary to adopt it. Now, we don''t need to divide our forces. We should concentrate all our forces on Motianling and work hard to break the defense of Qin army in Motianling. "


    "At the same time, he avenged King Indra."


    Sadika said, "if you don''t take revenge or kill the Qin army, you will never stop."


    "Yes, sir


    The emperor must answer immediately.


    The rest of the generals also answered together.

 Chapter 1390

    With sadika''s order, behind sadika, the black army has been rolling forward. More and more soldiers gathered at the foot of the mountain and began to rush up the hillside.


    "Kill, kill, take Zhang Xiu."


    "Capture Zhang Xiu alive."


    Countless Kushan soldiers roared and started to rush up the hillside with their weapons.


    As the soldiers charged, they began to climb up the mountain. Although the slope of Motianling is not steep, a trench has been excavated in the middle of the mountain. There are Qin soldiers sitting in the town. When guishuang soldiers get close to 50 paces, they have already taken out grenades and thrown them out.


    A grenade, swept across the sky, and finally landed in the crowd.


    "Boom! Boom! "


    One shell after another, constantly landing.


    There were explosions.


    For a moment, the Kushan soldiers who began to attack on Motianling suffered a fatal blow. One by one soldiers, constantly fell to the ground.


    However, a group of soldiers rushed forward, followed closely, and some soldiers continued to sprint.


    Some soldiers died in the war, and some soldiers followed.


    So much so that the soldiers kept getting closer to the trench halfway up the hill.


    Zhang Xiu saw all this in his eyes. He immediately transferred more weapons and sent a steady stream of grenades to the soldiers in the trench to quickly throw out grenades for bombing.


    The roaring explosion continued.


    In addition, the archers also began to draw bows and take arrows. Dense bows and arrows shot down the hillside and landed in the crowd of Kushan soldiers. Under the dense bow and arrow, there were countless soldiers killed and injured.


    The Qin army on the hillside kept fighting back.


    Under the combined attack of bows, arrows and grenades, countless soldiers were killed and injured. But there are also countless Kushan soldiers, still fast up, constantly close to the ditch.


    At the end of the war, it was a white-edged battle.


    Even though there were countless soldiers in Kushan, the soldiers who came up foolishly were finally driven down. Towards noon, the Kushan side sadika ordered to withdraw, temporarily no longer attack.


    Sadikale ordered a truce and temporarily took a rest at the foot of the mountain.


    The rest was also a relaxation for the Qin army.


    Sadika looked at emperor Xu and said: "military commander, Zhang Xiu''s defense is perfect. In the morning''s attack, our soldiers were killed and wounded countless times, but it had no effect at all. In this way, when can we defeat Zhang Xiu. Do you have any other way, commander


    "No!"


    Emperor Xu shook his head and said, "king, in today''s situation, there is no other way. It can only be a war, or even a fight to the death. It''s just a Ferris ridge. It can''t stop our attack. Just like today, it''s just the first day of the war. As long as we attack with all our strength, we will win in the end. King, even if all the soldiers are killed in this war, we have to fight. So, kill


    "Alas..."


    Sadika sighed.


    When he withdrew, he actually thought of an arrangement, that is, when the attacking army withdrew, he arranged for other soldiers to continue to attack without stopping at noon.


    It''s just that he didn''t make the arrangement.


    Sadika took a deep breath, with a look of awe on his face. He looked at the soldiers who had begun to eat in the army. He was silent and allowed them to eat and rest.


    In fact, today''s sadika has a weak heart.


    He really didn''t break Zhang Xiu''s confidence.


    Even if there are more than 600000 troops under his command, he even thinks that if Zhang Xiu does not fight, he is willing to ask Zhang Xiu for peace and strike a truce. But the problem is, from beginning to end, Zhang Xiu is not willing to truce. Such a situation is the reason why sadika has to go to war.


    Half an hour is fleeting.


    Sadika again ordered his soldiers to attack. The number of troops involved in this attack was more than 30000. More than 30000 people directly attacked Motianling, which is not a small number.


    The huge crowd attack, will give the Motianling garrison, causes the huge pressure.


    Zhang Xiu''s soldiers guard Motianling and block the attack of Kushan army.


    Sadika sat at the foot of the town, looking at the battlefield from afar.


    After sadika, some generals came forward and said, "king, the sun is too hot now. This is when the sun is at its strongest. It''s very hot on people. Even after a day''s sun exposure, soldiers have to peel off their skin. Do you think we should withdraw our troops in the daytime and launch an attack at night when the moon and stars are shining? "


    "No need!"


    Sadika big sleeve a brush, said: "is the day war, rest at night."


    Emperor Xu also echoed: "in today''s situation, we can only fight with all our strength. Even if it''s in the sun, you have to stick to it. Otherwise, we''ll all be homeless. If we can''t stop the Qin army, if we don''t break the Qin army, we''ll have to lose our families and people. "


    However, the general said, "but what I put forward in my humble position is not to fight, but to wait until the evening. After all, it''s hard to fight in the daytime. The soldiers can''t bear the sun. "Sadika said, "I can''t bear it. I have to stick to it."


    "Back off!"


    Sadika said.


    With sadika''s order, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the army can only insist.


    Although sadila is standing under a big umbrella and won''t be directly exposed to the sun, under the hot air, the heat wave is rolling, sadika is sweating, and the whole population is dry and suffering.


    "Get the water!"


    Sadika said.


    The soldier immediately handed over a pot of water and sadika gulped it down. But after drinking this water, because of the hot weather, it is also sweating. In a short time, it has soaked clothes and wet clothes.


    Sadika wiped the sweat from her face and looked up at the hillside of Motianling.


    The fighting continues.


    The cries of killing came one after another.


    There were more explosions.


    He sent more than 30000 elite soldiers to rush up the hillside, but from the beginning to the end, they did not break through the defense line of the Qin army and could not rush up the mountain.


    If you can''t take Motianling, everything will be in vain.


    So sadika is also gritting her teeth, because in the current situation, they have no choice.


    Time goes by little.


    In the afternoon, in the evening.


    At this time, the weather was a little cooler. After all, the sun began to burn to the west, but the fighting on the battlefield continued. Shouts and explosions came one after another, and countless Kushan soldiers charged, leaving behind a corpse.


    The soldiers of Kushan rushed up and were killed again.


    Can''t really get a foothold.


    We can''t really capture Motianling.


    With sharp eyes, Emperor Xu stood beside sadika and said, "my Lord, we have enough soldiers. During the day, 30000 elite were sent up. Now, in the evening, another soldier is immediately dispatched to attack and withdraw this troop from the mountain. If we want to attack Motianling, we will fight day and night, so that Zhang Xiu''s army can''t rest. "


    Speaking of this, Emperor Xu said: "Zhang Xiu''s defense is very steady, so the only thing we can do is to fight a war of attrition and consume Zhang Xiu''s forces one by one. After all, we have a total of 600000 troops. At the end of the day, Zhang Xiu has no troops. It''s easy for us to win. Even if it''s enough to wipe out Zhang Xiu, it''s worth it. "


    As soon as sadika thought about it, he immediately ordered another army to rush up.


    This time, it was the private soldiers of the nobility who attacked.


    It was government soldiers who attacked during the day.


    In the evening, the noble soldiers, with a little bit of cool wind, rushed forward quickly. In a twinkling of an eye, they came to the foot of the mountain and began to attack.

 Chapter 1391

    Top of Motianling mountain, in the headquarters.


    Zhang Xiu was relieved to see that the Kushan army had withdrawn. Her soldiers could have a rest. But in the twinkling of an eye, another guishuang army came down the mountain. Such a situation makes it impossible to have a rest at night in Motianling, and it is necessary to dispatch soldiers to fight at night.


    Zhang Xiu immediately pulls out the soldiers who fight in the daytime and rearranges the soldiers to come forward.


    Again, send the grenade and bow.


    All soldiers in position.


    As soon as the soldiers of Kushan entered the area where the grenades could be bombed, the soldiers of Qin army in the ditch took out the grenades one after another, pulled the lead and threw them at the soldiers of Kushan. At the same time, archers and crossbowmen immediately took their positions, quickly arched and killed the soldiers of Kushan.


    The war happened again.


    With the passage of time, late at night, at this time, all the torches on the hillside and under the hillside have been lit up. The red torches are burning, dispersing the darkness, making the whole Motianling area as bright as day.


    What''s more, there is a full moon in the sky.


    The moonlight is bright and the night is not deep, so the soldiers of Kushan can see it clearly.


    Zhang Xiu saw this scene and frowned.


    He looked at Guo Jia and Pang Tong and said, "look at sadika, it''s obvious that he''s going to fight day and night and fight like this all the time. This kind of continuous fighting, our weapons consumption is very fast. Of course, bows and arrows, swords and armor are certainly enough. But more grenades and shells are needed, otherwise it will be difficult to continue. "


    Guo Jia said: "I sent a letter to the Lord of liezhanqi, asking him to dispatch more craftsmen immediately to participate in the production of weapons, and constantly produce grenades and send them to the front line."


    "Yes!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Now, it is necessary to mobilize the rear forces. After all, it is not easy to resist the Kushan army.


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think it''s time to mobilize the people in the rear of Kabul. For the time being, we don''t need the people of Kabul to come, but they can help us. "


    Zhang xiudao: "what does Shi Yuan mean?"


    Pang Tong said in a deep voice: "it''s really hot today. Ordinary soldiers can''t support themselves if they are exposed to the sun for a long time. Under such a premise, soldiers are prone to heatstroke and need a lot of water. What''s more, a lot of food. It''s hard work just by our cook. "


    Zhang Xiu took the words and said: "you mean, I hope the people in the north of the city can solve the problem of water source for us. In addition, we can solve the problem of food. Even let the people boil the soup to relieve the heat, so as to ensure that the soldiers will not suffer from heatstroke. "


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty is holy. That''s what I mean. Now this war will be extremely fierce, we need the help of the people. And we provide all the materials, just let the people participate in the production. "


    Zhang Xiu thought about it and said, "it can be arranged."


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong immediately responded.


    Through the participation of the people, in fact, it can reduce the burden of the Qin army. Moreover, by doing so, the people of Kabul will be able to see the tragedy of the war on the battlefield and let them know that the war is not easy.


    Zhang Xiu simple arrangement, eyes a turn, and fell on the mountain battle. Now guishuang''s troops have once again entered the area where the moat on the mountain is located, and a white-edged battle has begun.


    The soldiers in the ditch, constantly killing.


    Kill the soldiers of Kushan.


    Even, Gan Ning is on the battlefield. He can''t help but fight into the battlefield with a knife. He leads the soldiers under his command to kill constantly and quickly crush the soldiers who go up the mountain.


    But after the soldiers of Kushan retreated, after a short time, they killed again.


    More and more soldiers, constantly killing up.


    Both sides are killing back and forth on the Motianling mountain. As time goes by, both sides are injured. On the Motianling mountain, countless bodies have been piled up.


    When the sky gradually bright, the eastern horizon, there is a touch of fish belly white, and finally to dawn.


    One night later, another night of fighting.


    At the foot of the mountain, sadika changed his soldiers again and arranged a new 30000 troops to continue to attack Motianling. Zhang Xiu''s position on the mountain, Zhang Xiu also immediately ordered a change of defense.


    When pound took the soldiers into the trench to prepare for the battle, Ganning led the soldiers back. After counting the losses, he came to Zhang Xiu''s side. Although Ganning had been fighting all night, he was very tired, but his face was filled with a bright smile.


    Gan Ning touched the dried up blood on his face, wiped the sweat off his face, and said, "Your Majesty, in this battle last night, our soldiers died as many as 1600 people, and the loss was huge."


    "However, the total number of enemies we have killed is no less than 4000. After all, we are on the defensive side. Previously, we could use grenades, bows and arrows to attack and weaken the enemy. ""Although our troops are weak, even so, we will win in the end."


    "Guishuang, you can''t win."


    Gan Ning looked excited and threw a voice to the ground: "when the end of the day will rest, tonight, the end will take the soldiers to fight again, I don''t believe it. What can these damned Kushan people do to us?"


    "Go down and have a rest!"


    Zhang Xiu orders to come.


    "Here it is


    Ganning clasped his fist and then turned back.


    But Ganning can''t rest now. He has to inspect the soldiers who fought last night. After all, people who are dead are already dead and can''t take care of them. However, many of the living soldiers were injured, and they needed to be appeased. So Gan Ning had to spend some time to stabilize the soldiers.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on the battlefield.


    Now the fighting is going on.


    Pound with soldiers continue to block the attack of Kushan soldiers, and with the passage of time, the sun is gradually rising. Fortunately, although the weather is hot at this time, soldiers in the army, according to the arrangement of military doctors, have made special soup to understand the heat, which can be used by soldiers in the army to avoid heatstroke due to the weather.


    Near noon, the sun is high.


    Even if Zhang Xiu is hiding under the headquarters, even if there is a sunshade on his head, the weather is still very hot.


    The heat makes one restless.


    Guo Jiachen said in a voice: "Your Majesty, now we are still facing a problem."


    "What''s the problem?" Zhang Xiu said.


    Guo Jia said: "have you ever considered that the fighting in the past day or two has caused countless casualties on the Motianling mountain. This body is lying on the Motianling. Especially in today''s weather, it is also a hot summer. It doesn''t take long for a dead body to stink, at most two or three days. Once the body stinks, but not treated, it may eventually lead to disease

 Chapter 1392

    Zhang xiuhan said: "what fengxiao said is true. It''s very dangerous in this weather. If you don''t pay attention to it, it may cause a large-scale epidemic. "


    Guo Jiashou nodded and continued: "if this Motianling area, there is only Kushan army. Well, we can take advantage of the epidemic to hit each other hard. "


    "But our troops are also at the Motianling."


    "Once the epidemic spreads, our soldiers will also be affected. So in the current situation, we must deal with the corpses on the Motianling mountain. "


    Guo Jia''s eyes were sharp and worried.


    Once an epidemic breaks out, it''s no joke. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers can''t bear it in front of the epidemic.


    Therefore, it must be prevented.


    Hearing Guo Jia''s words, Zhang Xiu nodded and said in a deep voice: "it''s easy to deal with the corpse on the slope. You can mobilize a catapult to throw oil tanks from the top of the mountain. One by one, the oil tanks will fall on the mountain of Motianling, especially if there are weeds on the hillside. Once the tung oil soaks, plus the scorching sun, once archery, the fire will ignite, and these dead bodies can be ignited and burned. "


    "But that''s why the half slope under the trench is easy to handle."


    "But in the ditch, it''s not easy."


    "After all, our soldiers have to be in the trenches all the time to keep control of Motianling. If we want to burn all the bodies, we will withdraw and return. Once the Kushan side sends troops to kill us, we will be in danger. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "so now, it''s quite difficult. After all, there are many bodies in the trenches. These bodies also need to be disposed of, otherwise they will be very dangerous. "


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, it''s actually very easy."


    Zhang Xiu said: "how to say?"


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty didn''t think about it for a while, so he couldn''t think about it. But in fact, the bodies of soldiers in the trenches are easy to deal with. In addition to the soldiers in town, another pair of our soldiers were arranged to lift these bodies and throw them directly under the hillside. If there''s a big fire, burn it all. "


    "Of course, it''s impossible to arrange it in a fight."


    "Because once the fight, arrange people up, it is also into the fight, it is impossible to clean up the body."


    "The best arrangement is to project the tank with a catapult first. So that the entire hillside under the trench is covered with a layer of kerosene and ignited


    "When the fire burns, a sea of fire will form on the hillside below the trench. Under the fire, it is impossible to kill the soldiers of Kushan at the foot of the mountain. "


    Guo Jiashen said: "in this period of time, we can deal with the corpses in the trench. Moreover, once the fire burns up, a ring of fire wall will be formed under the trench, which is a difficult problem to cross. Our soldiers can also take advantage of the fire wall to quickly annihilate the Kushan soldiers who enter the trench. "


    "Wonderful, wonderful!"


    Zhang Xiu''s eyebrows rose and her face brightened.


    This is an opportunity.


    Even in this way, you can hit Kushan hard and hit sadika hard.


    With a bright smile on her face, Zhang Xiu said, "Shiyuan, you immediately arrange for someone to prepare tung oil, and then pottery pots and catapults. Today''s attack is out of the question. Tomorrow morning''s attack will adopt new tactics. "


    "Here it is


    Pang Tong immediately responded.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on the battlefield again.


    The fighting continues.


    It was still a burning battle. Pound led a large army to guard it. He did not let Kushan''s army rush up. In particular, the guishuang soldiers who charged on this day were much less energetic than yesterday, so the offensive was not as good as before.


    Down the mountain, far away.


    Guishuang headquarters.


    Sadika was hiding in the shade. With a dignified look on his face, he looked at the emperor''s beard beside him and said in a deep voice: "it''s easy to move a mountain, but it''s very difficult to defeat the Qin army. Now our army is still attacking. However, the Qin army did not waver. I think it''s very difficult for us to win Motianling. "


    The emperor said in a deep voice: "king, no matter what, you must have the determination to fight to the end. This is the fight of the next day. If the king finds it difficult to continue, his determination will be shaken. In that case, we will definitely lose the war. Your majesty, we have a total army of 600000 and 700000. It must be us who fight day and night and win in the end. Zhang Xiu''s troops can''t carry it. "


    Sadika listened and nodded.


    But I sigh in my heart.


    It''s too hard to fight.


    Although sadika became the king of Kushan, he was very excited, but now, because of the continuous fighting, sadika''s heart is very tired and feels too difficult.


    It''s just that everything has to endure.


    Sadika watched the fight and could only wait with a haggard face.


    Time goes by.One day goes by, the sun goes down. After the sun sets, at night, there is another fight. For the soldiers of Kushan, the original offensive was extremely sharp, but now it is less than the previous offensive, and many soldiers have no choice but to rush forward.


    After all, after continuous fighting, they were all affected.


    This night''s fighting, the weather is still dry, even if the night is quite cool, but for the soldiers fighting, it is still sweating, a night down, there is not only countless blood, but also wet clothes countless times.


    It''s just a continuous fight, and there''s a mountain of corpses on the hillside.


    The bodies were laid out.


    One face after another, the face showed helplessness and pain.


    When the morning sun rose, guishuang''s offensive continued. On the hillside, Zhang Xiu mobilized soldiers to resist. But at this time, his soldiers had already sent in the catapult and tung oil, and all the materials were ready.


    This time, Yan Fei and others are still in charge.


    After all, they can aim best.


    This time, 50 catapults have been prepared. This is the most catapult that can be prepared. After all, it''s from the hillside down. The throwing force is smaller, so it doesn''t need much power.


    Therefore, it must be adjusted properly.


    In less than a quarter of an hour, all the catapults had been debugged, and the earthenware pots filled with tung oil were already placed beside the catapults, ready to be filled at any time.


    Yan Fei came to Zhang Xiu''s side and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready. Please order."


    "Attack


    Zhang Xiu is concise and comprehensive.


    "Here it is


    Yan Fei raised his hand and yelled, "he''ll come back!"


    With a command, one by one, the catapult soldiers quickly filled the pots. In each catapult, there are two pots. When fifty catapults are launched at the same time, a hundred pots will fly out of the air and fly to the half slope.

 Chapter 1393

    A hundred pots flew in the air. Because the catapults were adjusted in different positions, they fell from different positions in the air. The dense pots were smashed, either on the soldiers of Kushan or on the ground.


    In an instant, tung oil flowed from the broken pottery pot and fell on the ground.


    "Bang Dang! Bang


    With the continuous operation of the lever of the catapult, more than 600 pots flew out and landed on the half slope in a short time. The curtain fell in the eyes of sadika, who had been watching in the distance.


    Sadika''s eyes were sharp and said in a deep voice: "sergeant, there are pottery pots thrown out of the mountain. What does that mean?"


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, soldiers from the front came back to report.


    The soldier knelt down on one knee, clasped his fist and said, "king, the Qin army on the mountain suddenly dropped the clay pot with tung oil. At present, the countless pottery pots have been broken, and countless fire oil has been infiltrated on the ground. "


    Sadika looked in the eyes and said, "is this a fire attack?"


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "even if Zhang Xiu takes fire attack, once our soldiers encounter fire, they can evacuate. Zhang Xiu''s intention doesn''t have much effect. What is he doing this for? "


    For a moment, Emperor must have some thought not to understand.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention is not clear.


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "no matter what Zhang Xiu''s intention is, in short, we are not affected. Because once Zhang Xiu wants to set fire, our army can retreat immediately. When our troops withdraw, Zhang Xiu''s fire attack will lose its effect. "


    The emperor said, "what the king said is true."


    "Explore again!"


    Sadika''s big sleeve flicked and ordered.


    His eyes, still staring at the top of the mountain, this moment, see the top of Motianling, archers began to project rockets. With a rocket flying through the air, landed in the previous fire oil spill site.


    Today''s day, the sun is very strong.


    This sun exposure, a rocket landed on the ground, immediately ignited the flammable oil. The fire oil burns everywhere, just like a fire snake scurrying around, quickly igniting the surrounding places.


    In a short period of time, the fire snakes became one after another.


    A sea of fire has formed.


    The whole area under the trench turned into a sea of fire. Because of the impact of the fire, the soldiers of Kushan all evacuated quickly and did not dare to continue to rush up.


    The soldiers of Kushan who fought deeply on the mountain were unable to escape. Because there was no backup, they were killed directly in a short time.


    A fire blocked the attack of Kushan soldiers.


    Zhang Ren is in charge of fighting today.


    He''s also fighting himself.


    Zhang Ren''s fighting today is not with a gun, but with a sword. Because it''s the most convenient way to fight in such a short distance, he can kill quickly. Today''s Zhang Ren is covered with blood. His whole body, like a blood man, is thoroughly stained with blood.


    Zhang Ren looks sharp, like a sword out of sheath.


    He looked around and saw a corpse, so he ordered: "send the order down, immediately carry all the corpses on the hillside, and throw them into the sea of fire."


    "Yes


    The officers and men in the army, after getting the order, all moved quickly.


    For these soldiers, they have also been told that once the body stinks, it is easy to cause various diseases. So one by one soldiers, are quick action, in a short period of time, put a body, thrown into the fire.


    Even if the smoke is burning, sadika in the distance can also see this scene.


    He was confused for a moment.


    What''s going on.


    Zhang Xiu''s intention seems to be to use the opportunity of arson, and then burn all the bodies.


    Sadika looked at emperor Xu and said, "military commander, this embroidery set fire to all the corpses, and then threw all the corpses on the hillside into the sea of fire. What do you mean?"


    The emperor stroked his beard under his jaw. After thinking about it, he suddenly realized it and said, "Your Majesty, I understand. In fact, Zhang Xiu''s purpose is very simple, that is, to burn all the corpses. "


    Sadika said, "what do you do with the body?"


    The emperor must answer: "king, I have forgotten one thing. All these bodies will soon rot and stink in the sun. Once all the corpses are not disposed of, it is very easy to cause epidemic disease. "


    "We have hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. If the soldiers in the army are infected with an epidemic, the consequences will be unimaginable. Zhang Xiu, of course, has no good intentions for us. "


    "He did so, in fact, to prevent his soldiers from contracting the disease."


    "This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu."


    Emperor Xu said: "it is also the minister who ignored the environment. Once the epidemic broke out, the consequences would be unimaginable. Now that things are properly handled, all the crises have been solved. "Sadika took a deep breath and said, "it''s true. You should be careful."


    He looked at the burning fire on the mountain and didn''t tell the soldiers to make trouble or attack. Now, he needs to wait for a while. After all, it''s not suitable to attack at the moment.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, a general came to sadika''s side.


    The general had a worried look on his face.


    Sadika said, "what''s the matter?"


    The general replied, "king, the soldiers of the last general are showing signs of heatstroke. The number of soldiers suffering from heatstroke this time is as many as nearly 100. One by one, the soldiers are paralyzed and weak, which is very painful. "


    "Newspaper!"


    Next, another general came.


    Moreover, the generals who followed were all in a string. These generals came to sadila''s side and kept reporting to him one by one. What they all reported was the same thing, that is, the cause of soldiers suffering from heatstroke.


    Without exception, all the soldiers suffered from heatstroke.


    At this moment, sadika''s face changed greatly, and she looked very nervous. Because the current situation is totally beyond sadika''s expectation. When his army shows signs of heatstroke on a large scale, its combat effectiveness will be greatly affected.


    Sadika looked at Dixu and said, "sergeant, there were countless people suffering from heatstroke in this army, and all the soldiers collapsed on the ground. Now, what should we do? "


    Emperor Xu also frowned.


    Massive heatstroke, it''s not a small thing.


    Once more and more soldiers fall on the front line, it will even lead to panic in the whole army. At that time, it will be very difficult to attack Motianling.


    Sadika continued: "there''s no solution, Sergeant?"


    Emperor Xu said: "king, if a soldier is sick, he will be treated. Since the soldier is suffering from heat stroke, he will immediately send doctors to treat all the soldiers suffering from heat stroke. In addition, we will prescribe drugs to boil soup for all other soldiers to use, so as to avoid the central nervous system


    Sadika said: "but this is not a cure. Even after drinking the soup, the soldiers will get heatstroke after a long time in the sun, which is extremely unfavorable for us."


    Emperor must say: "does the king have a plan?"


    Sadika''s eyes turned, and after a moment, he said, "I have a plan to alleviate the current soldiers'' heat stroke crisis, and it will not affect the army''s attack on Motianling."


    The king said, "it''s best for you to have a plan."

 Chapter 1394

    Sadika looked solemn and said in a deep voice, "my plan is very simple. I remember that on our way to Motianling, there was a large forest and bamboo forest. There were countless shady areas in this area. "


    "If I remember well, it''s thirty miles behind us."


    "The king suggested that we retreat."


    "Retreat to the rear, and the army will be stationed in the forest. In this way, we will not be affected by the heat. Even the soldiers in the army can have a good rest. "


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "of course, this Ferris ridge must be attacked all the time. So we send 60000 elite every day, 30000 of them are in charge of attack, and the other 30000 are at the foot of the mountain. Once it''s time to change positions, the troops who attack during the day retreat, and the soldiers who attack at night continue. In this way, the attack will not be affected


    Emperor must a listen, frown a way: "the king can''t!"


    Sadika saw that his proposal was rejected and said, "why not?"


    Emperor Xu replied: "first, the direction of the Motianling is only 60000 troops. Once the Qin army kills on a large scale, the 60000 elite will not be able to stop and will be annihilated by the Qin army. "


    "Second, we have retreated to the position of the mountain forest and bamboo forest in the rear, such as today''s dryness. Once Mars splashes down or is attacked by the enemy, then the whole camp in the forest will turn into a sea of fire. "


    "So it''s not desirable."


    Emperor must say: "king, please think twice."


    Sadika shook his head and said, "no, I don''t approve of your analysis. The first point you mentioned is that if Zhang Xiu sends troops out of Motianling, he will destroy our 60000 elite. Then, our army immediately retreats, no longer loves war. In addition, it can also lead the other side out of Motianling. "


    "It''s an opportunity, not a danger."


    "Of course, with Zhang Xiu''s cunning. He will surely think that if our army withdraws decisively, there will be ambush. In addition, the purpose of Zhang Xiu is to defend and defend in Motianling. Therefore, Zhang Xiu can not take the initiative to attack. "


    "Our 60000 troops, that''s safe."


    Sadika looked solemn and continued: "as for the second point, you said that our area is vulnerable to fire. However, as long as the soldiers are arranged to patrol and the army is well prepared, that is not a matter. "


    Emperor Xu said, "Your Majesty, this is very inappropriate. It''s not so easy to prevent the fire. So there are great loopholes in your concerns. "


    Sadika has no face at this time.


    Emperor must not give him face at all.


    In front of so many people, he insisted that if Dixu said in private, sadika might have accepted it. But in such an environment, sadika was not willing to accept it, because the emperor had to sweep his face.


    But sadika didn''t show it. Sadika did not argue with Dixu any more, because in today''s situation, it is meaningless to argue.


    Sadika turned to look at the generals under his command, including the generals of the Kushan government and the private generals of the Kushan nobles, all gathered around sadika.


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "when it comes to whether to withdraw troops or not, just now, you have all heard the argument between Wang and his military advisers. As the saying goes, "if you listen to both sides, you will see clearly; if you believe in others, you will see darkly; if you agree with the majority, that is correct."


    "So I want to hear from you. It''s up to you to decide whether to withdraw or not. If there are many people who support the withdrawal, we will withdraw. "


    "If the number of people who support the withdrawal is small, they will not withdraw and will continue to garrison here."


    "Still continue to attack in Motianling."


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "so, now we all start to express our opinions."


    Emperor must hear, frown.


    He felt that sadika''s handling of things was too playful, because such handling was not rational at all, it was sheer nonsense. This is a battle on the battlefield. What we need is rational analysis, not mindless statements.


    However, in front of everyone, it is really difficult to stop. Because sadika gave the right of choice to all the generals, the emperor could not oppose it at all, but could only agree with it.


    This time, Emperor Xu was embarrassed.


    It was the most crude advice given to him by the wise general.


    It''s irresponsible.


    Or sadika''s target.


    Emperor Xu opened his mouth, he wanted to refute this proposal, but when the words came to his mouth, he immediately swallowed it back. Because in today''s situation, he still has to see how people make decisions to make arrangements.


    "Your Majesty, I agree with the withdrawal."


    In the crowd, some generals took the lead in speaking. The people who spoke were the generals of the noble family.


    For them, they don''t want to be exposed to the sun all the time.


    It''s really hot.


    No one can bear to keep the sun shining like this."Your Majesty, I also agree to withdraw."


    After all, there are too many soldiers in the center. If the sun keeps on drying, the weather will be extremely hot. At that time, more soldiers will suffer from heatstroke and the whole army will collapse.


    One after another, the other people began to express their opinions.


    "Your Majesty, I agree to withdraw."


    "It''s a waste of 600000 troops to stay at the foot of Motianling. In addition to increasing momentum, it really has no effect. So I''m in favor of a withdrawal. "


    "I also agree with the withdrawal."


    ¡­¡­


    The generals kept talking.


    Almost the vast majority of the generals are willing to withdraw, and few are willing to stay. In particular, there are few generals who support emperor Xu.


    When the emperor saw this scene, he felt extremely cold.


    Unexpectedly, his rational advice in exchange for the support of all.


    No one was on his side.


    No one supported him.


    As a result, Emperor Xu was extremely disappointed.


    At this moment, sadika''s eyes also came over. He had a proud smile on his face and said without hesitation: "the minority is subordinate to the majority. All the generals agree to withdraw. Well, there''s nothing more to say. This evening, we began to withdraw, leaving only 60000 troops in the area of Motianling. "


    The words are full of pride.


    Even so happy.


    Sadika, as the king of Kushan, though emperor Xu supported him. But in fact, as far as sadika is concerned, the first thing he has to do is to remove the emperor''s whiskers. He must try his best to weaken the influence of emperor''s whiskers.


    So sadika was happy to eat it.

 Chapter 1395

    At the moment, Emperor Xu has no right to speak, and even everyone agrees to withdraw. Even if he opens his mouth, no one agrees or supports him. Therefore, Emperor Xu takes a deep breath and says, "since the king has made a decision, I will not speak more."


    Sadika said, "since the military division has no objection, it''s settled."


    Emperor Xu''s cheek twitched slightly.


    What is no objection? There are many objections in his mind, even he is reluctant. But sadika''s decision could not be stopped.


    Di Xu looked at sadika''s face, and saw that sadika looked at him with complacency and self righteousness. Di Xu''s heart was clear.


    Sadika is not Indra.


    Indra is his disciple, willing to listen to his advice, even to his heart.


    Sadika is not, and even sadika is the leader of the aristocracy, with his own confidants and talents. Sadika''s willingness to be respectful to him has been particularly generous and valued.


    "That''s all."


    Emperor Xu sighed in his heart.


    He took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, I have no choice in this war. Even I can''t think of a way to deal with it, so please allow me to return to Peshawar and live in seclusion


    On hearing this, sadika''s face darkened and said, "military adviser, you want to resign. Are you dissatisfied with the king?"


    "No, no!"


    The emperor must shake his head and say: "it''s true that the minister repeatedly confronts Zhang Xiu and fails repeatedly. My stratagem is here in Zhang Xiu. It doesn''t work at all. I''m already at the end of my tether, so I''ll resign and no longer take part in the war. "


    Sadika''s gloomy face returned to normal, with a kind face, and said, "well, since the military division has made a decision, I won''t stop it. When a military commander goes here, he must take good care of himself. "


    "Thank you


    The emperor must bow to thank him.


    The heart is also sad, when he came, the momentum of the vast, but now it is desolate to leave.


    Sadika continued: "commander, go back to Peshawar. The army led by the king will defeat Zhang Xiu and drive the Qin army out of Peshawar. Our army of Kushan will surely win the final victory. "


    Emperor must say: "I wish you a speedy victory and a triumphant return."


    Sadika said, "thank you for your kind words."


    "Goodbye, grasshopper!"


    The emperor bowed once more, and then turned to leave on horseback. But at this time, sadika stopped Dixu. He ordered people to bring a box of gold cakes to Dixu and said, "it''s a long way to the mountain. The money is a thank you to the army. Let''s call it a day


    Emperor Xu didn''t refuse and took it directly.


    For him, since it was sadika who sent it, and at this time, there was no need for him to refuse.


    "Goodbye!"


    After thanking the emperor, he rode away.


    Sadika looked at the emperor who had left, and a smile passed by the corner of his mouth. Now that there is no emperor''s beard in the army, it means that the former power of Indra has been swept away, and he is really in charge of the Kushan army.


    Sadika did not take care of the emperor who left, but arranged for the soldiers to continue to attack.


    The day''s attack continued.


    However, Emperor Xu, who was far away from the battlefield, walked around the road several times, but on the way to retreat, he found a place to hide and did not continue to withdraw.


    The reason why they made detours several times was that they were worried about people who were tracking them.


    Now the emperor must hide and wait for time to pass.


    In the twinkling of an eye, it was evening.


    The hiding place of emperor Xu is not too far away from the main road of the official road. So when night fell, the retreat of Kushan army was clearly found by Emperor Xu. He looked at the retreating sadika army, but his eyes were cold.


    Sadie cartoon tried to force him out of the camp. Even if Dixu left on his own initiative, in Dixu''s view, it was sadika who deliberately did it, and sadika forced him to leave.


    The emperor had to make sadika pay.


    What''s more, the emperor must have decided that the 600000 troops led by sadika would surely be defeated. At this time, to follow sadika and stand with Kushan is to seek death.


    Therefore, the emperor needs to arrange his own retreat.


    The withdrawal of the army lasted for a long time, and finally everything on the official road was quiet. The emperor must know that this is sadika leading the army to leave and retreat to the bamboo forest in the rear.


    Emperor Xu also came out from the dark. He drove his horse to the direction of Motianling.


    He is going to see Zhang Xiu.


    This is his choice.


    Even if he had been the enemy of Zhang Xiu, he was humiliated by Zhang Xiu and wanted to revenge. But the reality is cruel, Emperor must not revenge, that can only accept the reality.


    In particular, sadika will lose, Zhang Xiu has a unified trend, Emperor must only conform to the trend.


    He can only follow Zhang Xiu.Emperor Xu bypassed the guishuang army at the foot of Motianling and walked along the path. Then he went around to the north of Motianling and to the rear of Zhang Xiu, and went up the mountain. He went up a distance and met the soldiers of Qin army.


    The emperor must come forward and say, "please inform the emperor of Qin. The emperor must ask for a meeting."


    The soldiers stationed there left behind to guard emperor Xu. Another soldier ran to the mountain headquarters quickly.


    In the headquarters, Zhang Xiuzheng discussed the situation with Pang Tong and Guo Jia.


    Previously, sadika ordered the withdrawal of troops, he had known through the sentinel, and now the sentinel pays close attention to the movement of sadika. As long as the army led by sadika retreated to the location of the large forest, the army of Kushan enjoyed the cool in the shade of the tree. Then, Zhang Xiu can arrange the soldiers to go quietly, set fire to the woods, and destroy hundreds of thousands of troops under sadika''s command.


    After the soldiers entered, they saw Zhang Xiu and reported: "Your Majesty, there is an emperor at the foot of the mountain who wants to see you. This emperor must have come around behind us and climbed the mountain from behind. "


    Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, some accident.


    Here comes the emperor Xu.


    You know, Emperor must be the commander of Kushan, and even the new king of Kushan, sadika, is also supported by Emperor. In such a situation, it is very surprising that emperor must come to visit.


    Zhang Xiu said, "bring the people up."


    "Here it is


    The soldiers have to give orders. They''ll go to inform them immediately.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed, but her heart was thinking about the purpose of emperor Xu.


    In a short time, the emperor had to be taken to the headquarters.


    After standing still, Emperor Xu bowed and said, "emperor Xu, meet your Majesty the great Qin emperor."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp and said, "emperor Xu, why do you come to see me now? You are the commander of Kushan. Now, I believe it would be very interesting if I cut you off and sent your head to sadika. "


    But emperor Xu knelt down like a jade pillar and said, "Emperor Qin, I''m no longer the commander of Kushan. Now, I''m here to go to the emperor of Qin. Please accept it. "


    Zhang Xiu was even more surprised.


    Emperor Xu came to him at this time.


    Interesting!

 Chapter 1396

    Zhang Xiu heard the words of emperor Xu, but in fact, there is still a trace of doubt in her heart. After all, Emperor Xu is not an ordinary person, but a military adviser and a sage of Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "emperor Xu, how can I believe you if you let me?"


    Emperor Xu said: "in fact, the reason is very simple. After Indra died, I supported sadika. However, sadika has his own ideas. He even wants to get rid of my influence so that he can control the power. Therefore, I am excluded. Especially today, there is a conflict between sadika and me because of the military strategy. "


    "What kind of conflict happened?" Zhang said


    Emperor Xu replied: "today, there are a large number of soldiers suffering from heatstroke in the Kushan army. There are so many soldiers in this group that it caused the panic of the generals in the army. "


    "I suggest that doctors should be arranged for diagnosis and treatment, and we should still attack Motianling."


    "But sadika said there was a continuous mountain forest 30 miles behind. We should lead all the troops and temporarily retreat to the mountain forest 30 miles behind. "


    "I firmly oppose this arrangement."


    Emperor Xu looked resentful and said, "but I didn''t expect that under my firm opposition, sadika asked all the generals in the army to vote together to see if they would retreat 30 miles or stay in the same place. Because all the soldiers have been frightened by the heat stroke of a large number of soldiers, almost all of them agree to retreat 30 miles and stay in the mountains. "


    "This is the way to death."


    "I suggested at that time that such a thing might be attacked by fire."


    "Kosadika thinks it''s impossible."


    "Such a stupid person even took this opportunity to suppress me. If it''s normal, just beat me down. But at this critical moment, if you make a mistake, you will lose everything. "


    "But sadika insists on it."


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "such a sadika, I think he will be defeated in the end. According to the ancient books of the great Qin Dynasty, good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters. Since sadika was stupid and incompetent, Emperor Qin was wise and powerful. On this premise, I would rather submit to Emperor Qin. "


    The specific situation is clearly explained.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu laughed.


    Sadika really wants to die.


    Mingming emperor must have given advice, but sadika insisted on withdrawing. Especially now, Zhang Xiu has got the news that sadika led the army to retreat. Now when she heard the words of emperor Xu, she is more convinced.


    However, Zhang Xiu did not immediately recognize it and said, "since sadika is retreating, why are there tens of thousands of troops at the foot of Motianling mountain, or even troops attacking?"


    Di Xu replied: "in fact, the reason is very simple. Sadika wants to retreat, but he can''t give up the attack. So I chose a balanced approach. First, the army retreated to the mountain forest 30 miles away to have a rest, leaving 60000 troops at the foot of the mountain. "


    "There are 60000 troops at the foot of the mountain, 30000 of which are responsible for the attack at night. Another 30000 troops are responsible for the day''s attack. Tomorrow evening, another 60000 people will replace them. "


    "The 60000 troops who fought, they retreated."


    "It''s a cycle, it''s a constant attack."


    "In the end, we should attack Motianling directly and defeat the army of Daqin."


    Dixu said: "this is sadika''s arrangement. He wants to avoid the heat and continue to attack. That''s why it''s changing today. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    There is regret in the laughter.


    There''s also joy in the laughter.


    I''m sorry that Dixu met such a stupid master as sadika. Fortunately, Dixu''s suggestion was not adopted by sadika. Otherwise, Zhang Xiu''s plan to carry out the fire attack with the help of the rear 30 Li mountain forest will be completely invalid.


    As long as sadika does not withdraw, does not retreat back to the rear to escape, then Zhang Xiu can only keep in the Motianling.


    Zhang Xiu also believed in the words of emperor Xu.


    after all, he has his own eye liner in the army of the cream, and can send news back.


    It is also reasonable that the emperor should be excluded.


    After all, the emperor must have great influence.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "emperor Xu, I''m glad you''re here. You are a talented and tough person. If you are obedient to Daqin, as long as you are down-to-earth and diligent, I will not fail you. "


    "Thank you


    Emperor must hear, immediately relieved.


    In fact, he was worried that Zhang Xiu would not accept it.


    After all, Emperor Xu now believes that the Kushan will be defeated. If he does not submit to Zhang Xiu, he will have no place to fight, and he can only live in seclusion in the countryside. But in this case, the emperor was not willing to.


    Zhang Xiu waved to Emperor Xu to get up. As soon as the words changed, she said, "emperor Xu, what should you do to destroy the 600000 troops of Kushan?"


    The emperor must stand up and bow.


    His eyes narrowed slightly.He is very clear that Zhang Xiu''s inquiry is not only a stratagem, but also a test for him. Because such a plan is not difficult for Zhang Xiu, but if his plan is flawed, and even suspected of calculating Daqin, then he will submit to Zhang Xiu, and it will become a bubble.


    Emperor must take a deep breath, then said: "Your Majesty, to deal with Kushan''s army is actually very simple. Just arrange a small group of soldiers to sprinkle tung oil around the whole forest and light it. If things are dry today and there is a big fire around, it will cause a huge fire immediately. Under such circumstances, the whole Kushan army hiding in the woods will surely be defeated. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "don''t you need me to mobilize the army?"


    "No need!"


    The emperor must answer firmly.


    He is very clear that this is just to mobilize a small group of soldiers, so in Zhang Xiu''s view, even if it is calculated, it has no effect. After all, the rest of the army was not mobilized.


    This is acceptable to Zhang Xiu.


    The emperor must continue: "if your majesty wants to send out a large army, you only need to arrange sentries along the way. Once you see a fire in the forest, or even see the army of Kushan fall into the sea of fire, you just need the beacon to spread the message and light the beacon for some distance. In a short time, we can send the news back to Motianling. "


    After a pause, the emperor must continue: "at that time, your majesty will lead the army to fight out, directly defeat the 60000 troops in Motianling, and then push them across. When you reach the area 30 miles away, you can easily defeat the fleeing Kushan army. "


    Zhang Xiu thought in her heart and said, "OK, I''ll do it according to your plan. This time, it''s up to you. As long as the plan is completed, I promise you to be a city master. But if you fail, you should know the consequences. "


    Emperor must say: "if I fail, I will raise my head to see you."


    "Good!"


    Zhang Xiu said, "I''ll give you 800 soldiers. Is that enough?"


    Emperor Xu shook his head and said, "there are too many 800 people, and it''s easy to leak information. Only 500 people are enough to complete the project. I know the mountains and forests 30 miles away. "


    "This place is densely covered with mountains and forests, and there are countless bamboo forests."


    "Whether it''s a mountain forest or a bamboo forest, if it''s ignited, it''s a huge fire. Five hundred people dispersed, enough to ignite the whole area. At that time, sadika will certainly have a hard time


    "Especially under the fire, hundreds of thousands of troops of Kushan continued. Countless people, it is difficult to escape from the mountains. At that time, your majesty will lead the army to kill, which is enough to drive straight in and completely defeat sadika''s army. "


    Emperor Xu zhengse said: "of course, once your majesty learns the news and attacks the 60000 troops at the foot of Motianling mountain, you can send a cavalry to bypass the army at the foot of Motianling mountain and go straight to the burning place to kill. It only takes three or five thousand cavalry to cover up and kill the enemy


    Zhang Xiu began to laugh.


    The plan of emperor Xu is quite good.


    It''s quite meticulous.


    Zhang Xiu said: "in that case, you should act immediately. I have everything you need ready for you. This battle depends on how you behave. "


    "I will live up to your Majesty''s expectations."


    The emperor must give a resounding answer.


    For him, this time to carry out the task, it is sure to be successful. Such a simple thing, if he failed, he would not have to follow Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang xiuchao Wang nodded more and more, and then he saw Wang leading the emperor down.


    Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty, Emperor Xu is a wise man. He knew his Majesty''s worries, so he took them into account. This time, he is really willing to surrender. "


    Guo Jia said: "this time, we are sure to succeed. However, sadika is also responsible for his own death. If sadika believes in Dixu''s judgment, it will not be easy for us to attack sadika. "


    Zhang xiudao said: "it''s true. It''s also a matter of time and destiny. It''s all made by sadika himself."


    He is looking forward to this battle.


    Guo Jia said, "Your Majesty, just now the emperor must mention the matter of arranging a team of cavalry to pursue. In your Majesty''s opinion, who should be sent to lead the cavalry to pursue? "


    Zhang Xiu is not false thinking cableway: "let Baima Yicong go, the 3000 Baima Yicong under Zhao Yun''s command, the combat power that erupts out, even if you meet 30000 elites are not afraid. What''s more, a group of rout soldiers, even if the number is more, Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong can continue to kill. "


    Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty is wise!"


    When the general policy was set, Zhang Xiu discussed some details with Guo Jia and Pang Tong, and had already come up with a plan for fighting in Motianling.


    After everything is settled, everyone goes to have a rest.

 Chapter 1397

    The night is deep and the moon is like a hook.


    The emperor must lead 500 soldiers, is on the way quickly. All the 500 soldiers were carrying heavy loads, and every soldier was wearing tung oil pots on his back. This time, they wanted to follow emperor Xu to set fire thirty miles away.


    The road the emperor must choose is not official.


    It''s a path.


    Five hundred people are all elite soldiers in the army. These soldiers are very fast on their way. By the middle of the night, the troops led by Emperor Xu had approached the mountain forest 30 miles away. However, Emperor Xu did not act immediately, but led the soldiers to hide in the dark, carefully observing the layout of sadika''s army.


    Today''s sadika army has camped. All the soldiers were stationed in the forest, and a fence was specially built outside the forest to avoid sudden attack.


    In the eyes of emperor Xu, this is seeking death.


    These fences, on the surface, resist the attack from Daqin. However, under the attack of the fire, once the fire light converges, these fences will become obstacles to the withdrawal of the Kushan army.


    Of course, sadika still has five or six hundred thousand people.


    So many people have gone deep into the forest.


    It stretches for more than ten miles.


    Throughout the mountain forest, there are rest Kushan soldiers everywhere. These soldiers are now hiding in the shady woods, with satisfied smiles on their faces. After the weather was too hot, they didn''t even have the heart to eat, and they felt tired. Now, they hide in the mountain forest, enjoying the clarity of the forest, only feel that the whole person is comfortable.


    Some even lie on the ground to rest.


    Sparse soldiers, each to sleep.


    In the whole forest, except for the birds hovering over the mountain forest, the rest is the sound of some insects.


    There are also torches burning in the mountain forest and bamboo forest.


    The burning torch dispels the darkness.


    In the camp, except for a few soldiers on patrol, the rest of the soldiers have all rested. In fact, a few days ago, when they were stationed at the foot of Motianling, all the soldiers were badly exposed to the sun, and they were very tired.


    Now, it''s all relaxed.


    In fact, it is precisely this situation that is conducive to the emperor''s action.


    Emperor must carefully observe, understand the layout of the Kushan army, then immediately made arrangements. He divided the whole forest area into eight places, namely east, South, West and North, as well as southeast, southwest, northwest and northeast.


    Emperor must be quite clear about the situation of this mountain forest and bamboo forest.


    He arranged for the soldiers to move.


    The time of arson is chosen after an hour. Because the whole area is very large, it is not possible to start arson from the surrounding area in a short time. In addition, it is necessary to consider that there may be accidents, so it may not be possible to take immediate action.


    So he left an hour.


    Enough time for everyone.


    Dixu himself was in the area at the gate of the camp. However, the gate of the camp is the front camp, which is also close to the woods, and most of the soldiers are in the rear, so although the front camp is not easy to ignite and takes a longer time to ignite, it has little impact.


    When the soldiers of the rear battalion react, the front battalion is enough to catch fire.


    One by one, go to carry out the order.


    Everyone in the army, act separately.


    Emperor Xu is with people, quietly waiting.


    Time goes by.


    The emperor must look at the gate of such a big camp with deep eyes. To tell the truth, after Indra was killed, he did not regret that he had made sadika, because the situation was critical at that time. If sardika is not set up, the Kushan army will fall apart and lose its cohesion, which emperor Xu does not want to see.


    But Dixu did not expect that sadika chose to demolish the bridge in a short time.


    To get him out of the army.


    He looked at the camp, the deep eyes, as if burst out of the intention to kill, tonight, he wanted to let sadika know. Even if he left the military camp, it was easy for him to deal with sadika.


    The night was deep and the wind was cool.


    The emperor must be among them, only feel the brain more and more empty, as if there are countless aura, suddenly appear in the brain.


    It''s all about dealing with sadika.


    Once separated from Zhang Xiu, Emperor Xu felt as if he had come out of prison and was no longer oppressed.


    "My Lord, it''s time."


    At this time, the soldier spoke to remind the emperor.


    Emperor must suddenly come back.


    He had been staring at the camp, but he didn''t feel the passage of time. This time, an hour had passed. Emperor Xu''s eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "action, fire from the side of the camp immediately. Plan, here we go


    "Here it is


    Soldiers in the surrounding area move immediately.


    Originally, the soldiers had already dumped tung oil in the mountain forest not far from the side of the camp. The ground in this mountain forest is full of weeds, bamboo leaves, leaves and some dead branches. Now the weather is very hot, all of them are scorched. After sprinkling with kerosene, it is easy to ignite once it meets open fire.The soldiers went to the operation, and soon a fire broke out on the side of the camp.


    "Crackle, crackle!"


    Dead branches, leaves, bamboo leaves and even dried bamboo shoot shells burn and crackle. The thick smoke rose, and even because many places were watered with fire oil, the fire ran like a fire snake and ran quickly to the gate of the camp.


    Although it''s not really close to the gate of the camp, many of them are made of wood. When the fence meets the open fire, it also burns one after another. In a short time, the front camp has formed a sea of fire.


    "Fire


    The soldiers on guard in the former camp immediately yelled and sounded the Gong when they found the fire.


    With the sound of the Gong, even the soldiers in a hurry, they directly sounded the war drum, so that the sound of the war drum easily broke the silence of the night.


    It''s a message that''s coming in fast.


    Soon it reached the king''s account.


    The king''s tent of sadika is in the center of the forest. Sadika was placed in the center for a simple reason. Once the front battalion was attacked, he could even withdraw from the center.


    It''s his selfishness.


    But just like this, it was less than a quarter of an hour after the arrival of the soldiers who came back from the current battalion to deliver the news. The soldiers broke into the barracks without reporting, shouting, "my Lord, it''s not good. There''s a fire in the camp. Your majesty, the mountains and forests of the former camp are all burning now. The soldiers who put out the fire can''t put out the fire for a short time. "


    Sadika was on her bed, shivering at the soldier''s report. He turned over and exclaimed, "come on, beat the drums and gather all the soldiers together. We should put out the fire as soon as possible. If things are dry today, there must be no fire. Come on, get the order at once. "


    "Yes


    The soldier was ordered to turn around and inform.


    Sadika''s inner worry is that he has already gone out of the big accounts of the Chinese army by putting on a piece of clothing. He stood in the forest. Because of the limited sight in the forest, he could not see the burning light of the front camp, nor could he feel the burning fire of the front camp.


    Because I don''t know, sadika is anxious, but not panic.


    After all, it''s just a fire in the front camp, which can be put out.


    As long as the fire is put out, everything will be fine.


    "Newspaper!"


    At that moment, another soldier was shouting.


    It''s a soldier, running fast from the rear. When the soldier quickly ran in front of sadika, because he was too hasty, he tripped and fell to the ground. He just fell next to sadika. He reported: "king, something''s wrong. There''s a fire in the rear of the camp."


    "Newspaper!"


    Before sadika spoke, another soldier ran back.


    The soldier came from the left side of the camp. Before he arrived, he cried out, "king, the left side of the camp is on fire."


    "King, there''s a fire on the right side of the camp."


    Another soldier called out.


    This time, before the soldiers appeared, there were shouts coming back.


    When sadika heard the news from the soldiers one after another, he was stunned. Even in his mind, he became blank. He didn''t even know what to do, because now there are fires all around the camp, which means it''s not a natural phenomenon, but man-made.


    It can be quite dangerous.


    Did the Qin army come?


    Sadika''s heart, suddenly thought of the emperor''s suggestion, his heart suddenly faintly regretted, if he had believed in emperor''s, it might not be the present scene.

 Chapter 1398

    But now, even if sadika thinks of tishu, it doesn''t help.


    It''s too late.


    Although sadika is located in the center of the forest, it is not clear what kind of situation the fire in all directions of the camp is, but once there is a fire burning in such a dense forest, it will be a tsunami like fire.


    It''s the most terrifying force.


    In the face of such a fire, human resources are extremely humble.


    When sadika was anxious, many generals in the army also gathered at this moment. The expressions on their faces all showed tension and urgency, because now they also got the news that the camp was on fire in all directions.


    "Well, I knew it. I should have listened to Emperor Xu. Your majesty, you should listen to Emperor Xu''s advice and not expel him. "


    In the crowd, a general spoke.


    At this time, the general forgot what he had said at that time. Anyway, now he is complaining that sadika decided to retreat to the forest, causing them to fall into a sea of fire.


    "King, we are in a sea of fire. There are fires in all directions. What should we do? "


    "Please make a quick decision."


    "I think there must be ambush for Zhang Xiu in this fire. We can''t delay. We need to act now. If we delay any longer, we will all be buried in flames. "


    "Retreat, we must retreat at once."


    ¡­¡­


    The generals in the army spoke one after another.


    Countless people spoke, or said they wanted to retreat, or complained about sadika''s reckless decision, or worried about their own life and death. Such a situation filled sadika with anger.


    When he retreated earlier, everyone agreed, and even flattered him, saying that he was wise in his decision. But now, they all start to blame him.


    "Newspaper!"


    At this moment, a sentry came running back from the front.


    The sentry came to sadika''s side and exclaimed, "my Lord, it''s not good. Our camp is not only on fire, outside the camp, there is a sudden burning of smoke. When the smoke burns up, it will pass all the way to the direction of Motianling. In a short time, the Qin army will get the news and kill them. "


    Sadika''s heart sank.


    He knows he''s on the hook.


    He must have suffered a heavy loss from the fire.


    "Since this arson was carried out by the Qin army. Then there must be ambush at the location of the front camp. We don''t want to evacuate from the former camp. Pull out. We''ll pull out after we leave. "


    Sadika orders directly.


    When they heard this, they immediately responded.


    Now, they have no idea of World War I, and they all want to retreat.


    "Withdraw!"


    Sadika ordered again.


    He didn''t miss it. He quickly went back to the camp, put on his armor, took his clothes, and under the escort of his relatives, began to go back to the camp.


    The rest of the generals followed.


    One by one, the soldiers followed, all following.


    When all the people were on their way, they were very frightened, because now, they didn''t know the situation of the fire in Houying, so they had to leave the mountain forest from Houying. Only in this way can they avoid the burning fire. Otherwise, none of them can escape from the fire and all of them will be buried in the forest.


    It''s a team of hundreds of thousands of people. But relative to this continuous mountain, it is too small, once the fire connected, then the fire burning, any can burn, will be completely burned.


    "King, wait a minute!"


    At this moment, a general in the army spoke.


    This general was named Wu Tu, a general of the Kushan army, not a general of the noble family. In particular, utu used to be a general in Peshawar, and he had rich experience.


    This time he retreated to the mountains, and utu was one of the few who supported emperor Xu.


    It''s just that there''s a lot to be said.


    In the end, no one was willing to listen to utu, so the army retreated to the mountains.


    Sadika looked at utu. He was impressed by utu, because utu stood on the side of emperor Xu when Emperor Xu blocked his retreat, hoping to stop him from retreating into the mountains.


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "utu, what do you have to say?"


    Utu replied, "tell your majesty, we are going back to the camp. But along the way, I found that the more I went back, the smell of burning filled the air, as if burning dust and ashes were burning in the air. So I''m sure there must be a big fire behind the camp. If we break through from behind, the road is likely to be blocked and we can''t break through at all. "


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "utu, then what do we do?"


    Wu Tu said: "change the way immediately. As for where to go, I don''t know. Because now the air in the whole mountain forest is very dry. Now, we can''t decide where we can break through at all for a moment. ""Nonsense!"


    Sadika yelled.


    He said in a deep voice, "we have been going back for such a long time. In such a long period of time, both the front and back of the camp and the left and right of the camp must have been on fire, and there was a big fire. Now, if we retreat now, we will retreat along the road, which will waste countless time. At that time, the fire will be bigger and it will be more difficult to retreat. "


    "Now, even if there is a big fire in the rear camp, you have to go."


    "Because we have no way back."


    "Just keep going."


    Sadika''s eyes were sharp, and his heart was even more anxious. He almost cried out: "we have no chance to delay now. The king decided to continue to break through in the direction of the rear camp. Those who are willing to follow the king to break through the encirclement will follow him. If you don''t want to, you can choose the direction to break through. I will never interfere. "


    Now, it''s a crisis of life and death.


    It''s quite dangerous.


    So sadika didn''t take charge of the soldiers under his command. They could do whatever they wanted. Now sadika''s mind is full of one thing, immediately evacuate the mountain forest, and then escape from the Qin army.


    "Retreat!"


    Sadika ordered again.


    He was carrying his trouser legs and was on his way quickly.


    With sadika on his way, most of the rest of the soldiers followed sadika. Because up to now, there is no other way to retreat, only to retreat.


    When utu saw this, he looked left and right, and finally did not choose to follow sadika, but went to the left side of the camp. As a matter of fact, there are some other soldiers who are going to the right side of the camp.


    Choose your own direction.


    They''re on the run.


    Sadika noticed that many soldiers were separated, and he didn''t care about their lives. Now sadika is in charge of his own life and death. He is determined to go on his way and retreat quickly. But the more later, the smell of ash burning in the air will become more and more strong, even the burning smell will become more and more strong, which is very uncomfortable.


    Sadika, with the men, ran on for a quarter of an hour or so.


    At this moment, sadika was stunned.


    In front of us is a place where the fire is burning. Every tree is burning. There are even fallen trees everywhere. The whole scene is devastated.


    With the fire burning, the heat wave hit.


    It''s unbearable.


    Sadika took a puff in his cheek. He smashed his mouth. His face was helpless and even desperate, because he had no other way to deal with the current situation.


    Even he didn''t know what to do.


    The generals were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene. They want to break through from the direction of Houying, but the problem is, how can they break through the sea of fire behind now?


    There''s no way to kill them.


    "Crackle, crackle!"


    The fire is still burning, and there is a sound of explosion around it. Even this mountain forest is constantly being ignited, and the scope of the fire continues to spread around. The crowd howled, then looked at sadika one by one, waiting for sadika''s decision.

 Chapter 1399

    Sadika has made a wrong decision, but he is the king of kusana after all. Everyone''s eyes are still on sadika, waiting for sadika''s decision.


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "how far are we from Houying running out of the mountain forest?"


    One side of the soldiers replied: "tell your majesty, this place is about two miles away from us. If you run at full speed, it''s easy to run these two miles. But now, these two miles will be a desperate situation, and countless people will be buried here. "


    Sadica had a puff in her cheek.


    "Alas..."


    Sadika couldn''t help sighing.


    He turned his eyes quickly and said in a loud voice, "now we have no way back. Because we have been running for such a long time, the fire must have been burning in the rear of our current position. It is impossible to go back and break through. So now, even if there is a sea of fire ahead, we have to rush through. "


    "As for how to rush, it''s a question."


    "We have no water around us, so we have to rely on ourselves to break out. If you don''t cover your mouth, you will rush into the sea of fire


    "So, you need a wet cloth to cover your mouth and nose, and then rush out in the fire."


    Sadika''s sword came out of the sheath with a clang sound. He cut off a piece of clothes directly from his sleeve. Then he picked up and lifted his trousers. He peed on them.


    A strong taste, immediately diffuse open.


    Sadika''s cheek was still twitching, but he looked at his bodyguard and said, "we''ll do it with our king, and then we''ll break through together. Now it''s not about personal honor or disgrace, it''s about breaking through. "


    There are nearly a hundred guards around him.


    One by one, without hesitation, they quickly split their clothes and urinated.


    "Go


    Sadika yelled and rushed out.


    At the same time, his wet clothes directly covered his mouth and nose. Even though the smell was strong and pungent, and even made him feel uncomfortable, sadika still bit his teeth and rushed out.


    He rushed directly into the sea of fire, and the rest of the guards followed suit, all of them followed suit, even covered around sadika to protect sadika''s safety.


    This scene shocked people.


    One by one, knowing that there is no way to go back and that there is no choice, they all follow sadika''s example, and then they start to run out in the fire.


    But it''s not so easy to run in the sea of fire, because when the fire is burning, it''s not only easy to ignite itself, but also has fallen dead branches and trunks, as well as the Mars ashes on the ground, which are unbearable.


    Countless people fell in the fire.


    Especially there are too many people in the rear.


    Unable to get out for a while, all the people in the rear were surrounded by the sea of fire and fell into the sea of fire.


    "Run away!"


    "Hurry up ahead, don''t get in the way."


    "Get out of the way, make way for me."


    ¡­¡­


    Because of the spread of the fire in the rear, many people have been surrounded by the fire, so in the light of the fire, all the soldiers in the army roared one after another. Even the people in the rear are worried about their own life and death, and rush straight ahead.


    For a moment, the team was in a complete mess.


    There were many people rushing around, resulting in many people being directly knocked over on the ground and stampeded.


    All this is beyond sadika''s control now.


    Sadika was concentrating on the retreat. He kept rushing out. Even on the way out, he was very tired, and even couldn''t breathe. Especially under the scorching fire, his clothes began to be ignited, and his hair was scorched, which made him very uncomfortable.


    Fortunately, there are close guards around, so sadika can continue to run out.


    When sadika began to break through, the smoke had reached Motianling. Zhang Xiu saw the burning beacon smoke on the Motianling. In fact, the reason why we can see this is due to today''s fine weather, bright moon and stars at night, and no dark clouds. Especially now, it is almost dawn, and the sky in the East is white, so we can see it clearly.


    Otherwise, it''s not easy to find out.


    Zhang Xiu decisively ordered to fight back. At this time, Bai Ma Yi Cong, led by Zhao Yun, went straight to the mountain forest 30 miles away, and Zhang Xiu led the army to kill directly from Motianling for the first time.


    Thirty thousand Kushan troops on the offensive.


    Thirty thousand people are too weak for Zhang Xiu. Under the crush of Zhang Xiu''s army, the thirty thousand guishuang troops have been defeated in an instant and began to flee. However, the 30000 people stationed at the foot of the mountain who were ready to change their posts to attack did not dare to resist any more when they saw that the Qin army was coming, so they all chose to retreat.


    Zhang Xiu led the army and killed them in the back.


    On the one hand, the army was covering up and killing, on the other hand, they were going all out on their way.


    However, Zhang Xiu''s speed is much slower than that of Zhao Yun''s Baima Yicong. The white horse Yi Cong led by Zhao Yun ran as fast as he could.Running at this speed, the sky doesn''t have to be bright. Zhao Yun''s 3000 white horses can reach the position of the bamboo forest. The more Zhao Yun is on his way, the more clearly he can see the beacon smoke in the distance.


    When he approached, he could see the burning fire in the air and the thick smoke in the distance.


    It''s really a big fire.


    A fire, this forest, bamboo forest, have to be burned.


    However, this situation is not considered by Zhang Xiu. Now, what Zhang Xiu wants to consider is to wipe out sadika and directly take charge of the Kushan. This is what the Qin army needs to do.


    When Zhao Yun arrived at the burning place, Emperor Xu rushed out directly. He brought people together with Zhao Yun and said respectfully, "emperor Xu, I''ve seen General Zhao Yun."


    Emperor must also have a certain understanding of Zhao Yun''s situation.


    The other side is Zhang Xiu''s younger martial brother.


    And the martial arts are also very powerful.


    With Zhao Yun, it won''t be too difficult to win sadika.


    Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "emperor Xu, you have been here all the time. Have you ever noticed the situation of guishuang army breaking through?"


    Emperor Xu nodded his head and replied, "report back to General Zhao, the breakout of this night is all with me. According to my arrangement, the soldiers around the mountain forest inquired, and no more than 50000 Kushan troops escaped this time. Even these forces that have escaped are all defeated and have lost their morale. "


    After hearing this, Zhao Yun thought about it in his heart.


    A group of soldiers who have lost their morale are already short of combat effectiveness. Under such a premise, the 3000 white horses under his command are enough to defeat each other and win the battle.


    Zhao Yun restrained his mind to attack immediately and said again: "emperor Xu, since you have paid attention to the situation of retreat. Have you ever found out about the retreat of sadika, king of kusana? "


    "I know!"


    Emperor Xu nodded.


    Last night, he not only arranged arson, but also turned his soldiers into sentinels to investigate the situation carefully. He arranged for the soldiers in the rear battalion to clearly see sadika rush out of the mountain forest, and many soldiers rush out together. Just a group of people rushed out of the fire, all of them were in a mess, none of them were intact. More or less, they were all injured.


    Zhao Yun saw a light in his eyes and said, "now that you know the situation of sadika, let''s chase sadika as soon as possible. The rest of the Kushan scattered troops and wandered bravely, which was not enough for fear and had no value. However, after taking sadika, it is equivalent to destroying the Kushan army. "


    "Yes, I will lead the way at once."


    Emperor must also turn over to mount a horse, then lead the way in front, take Zhao Yun and others, straight to the front. After all, Dixu was very familiar with the topography of these places, so as long as he knew the location of sadika''s hiding place, Dixu could handle it very well.


    He took the army on his way, and his mood was also very high.


    It''s about to be done.


    He''s going to take sadika alive and take revenge.

 Chapter 1400

    On the morning of the end of June, the sun was burning.


    The hot sun has risen, even in the morning, there has been a burning breath.


    In the distance of the forest, a remote open space.


    Sadika and others lie down to rest.


    This site is a low-lying area with shallow ditches. Depending on this remote place, being able to get water from a slightly muddy ditch can at least relieve the burning feeling in the body.


    Sadika and others originally intended to evacuate directly. However, after they came out of the mountain forest, they were all tired, and even suffered all over.


    Almost everyone was injured.


    Or the skin was burned, or the feet were burned by the burning fire, and even, some people''s hair was burned clean. In a word, none of the people on the scene was intact, especially all of them had dry lips and black faces. Even his clothes were missing corners and burnt everywhere.


    Everyone was exhausted.


    So sadika decided to find a place to hide. After a few rounds, they came to this low-lying place and hid for a while so that they could recover earlier.


    Sadika looked around and found utu. I didn''t expect that Wu Tu, who broke through from another place, also followed up. Moreover, Wu TU was in better health.


    Sadika ordered an inventory of the damage.


    He now has less than 10000 troops under his command.


    And sadika doesn''t know how many people have broken through in the rest of the world. You know, he''s an army of five or six hundred thousand, but now there are less than ten thousand people around him, which is a great loss.


    Even though there are still many soldiers breaking through in other places, according to sadika''s estimation, I''m afraid the number of troops that will really survive will not exceed 100000.


    This is an optimistic estimate.


    Sadika took a deep breath, looked at Wu Tu, and said in a deep voice, "Wu Tu, what do you think we need to do in today''s situation to avoid the pursuit of the Qin army. It can be expected that the Qin army will certainly launch a pursuit. "


    Wu Tu said in a deep voice: "king, the only way to escape the pursuit of the Qin army is to expect that our hiding place will not be found. As long as our hiding place is safe, we will evacuate overnight after the Qin army leaves. After all, by the end of the night, people will have recovered a little, and they won''t be so miserable. "


    "Is there no other way?" sadika said


    "No!"


    Utu shook his head and answered.


    Now he even thinks that the current situation is almost hopeless.


    It''s almost hard to leave.


    However, as long as the Qin army does not find his hiding place, everything will have a chance. Of course, if the Qin army found out, it would be a matter of fate, which proves that the destiny lies in Daqin.


    Sadika frowned and looked solemn.


    He opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but when it came to his mouth, he finally swallowed it back. Now, he didn''t know what to say. Everything was up to fate.


    Time goes by little.


    In the middle of the day, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Even if they hide in low-lying areas and are surrounded by some sparse trees, it is still extremely hot for those who have experienced a sea of fire. They are very uncomfortable.


    Especially after a night''s running, they have no food now. They are hungry one by one and have no energy. They are wilting and very uncomfortable.


    "Newspaper!"


    Right now.


    The sound of panic came from a distance.


    But the sentry came back quickly. The sentry''s hair was burnt, and the whole person was very embarrassed. He came to sadika''s side and reported, "Your Majesty, something''s wrong. Our whereabouts were found, and a group of Qin cavalry came straight to our position. "


    "Ah


    Sadika let out a cry of surprise, and his face suddenly became frightened.


    He looked around.


    It was a low-lying area, and it was quite flat, suitable for cavalry to run. Once the cavalry kill, they can''t stop it. What''s more, they are all a group of rout soldiers without any combat effectiveness.


    Now we have to fight. The power is not symmetrical.


    There is a big gap in strength.


    Sadika looked at utu and said, "utu, you have rich experience. What do you do now


    Utu said, "king, we have no way back. Because this low-lying area, import and export are all in the same place. Now the Qin army is coming from the entrance. We can''t do it if we want to evacuate. Now, we have to wait for death. We don''t even have the power to resist. "


    Sadika''s body began to shake slightly.


    He has not been king of Kushan for a few days. Even, he has not returned to Peshawar to enjoy himself. Now he is about to be taken down, and he is reluctant.


    But sadika was helpless."Just surrender."


    Sadika''s heart, too, sighed. Now we can''t escape at all, we can only surrender. Even if sadika knew that such surrender would weaken the family and that all the advantages of the family would be removed, sadika had no choice.


    There''s no way.


    "Da! Dada


    At the moment, the sound of horse''s hooves is getting closer and closer.


    Even the rapid sound of the horse''s hooves is already earth shaking, making the ground begin to tremble. The roaring sound seemed to strike on the heart of every Kushan soldier, and his face was full of uneasiness.


    The speed of the cavalry is very fast.


    In a short time, the cavalry led by Zhao Yun had already killed the soldiers of Kushan. Zhao Yun looked around and ordered, "where is the sadika? Let him out."


    After the translation, the soldiers of Kushan reported the news immediately.


    In fact, the reason why Zhao Yun did not attack was very simple. The entrance was a place, and he was not worried about the enemy''s escape. Therefore, Zhao Yuncai was patient and wanted sadika to come out.


    After hearing the report, sadika came out with people. He directly knelt down on the ground and said, "sadika, I''d like to meet you. Sadika is willing to lead all the soldiers and submit to Daqin. "


    He faced Zhao Yun without any dignity.


    He is now a prisoner.


    He had to surrender.


    When Zhao Yun saw sadika kneeling on the ground, he waved his hand and immediately came forward. Zhao Yun mouth with a faint smile, said: "sadika, come and have a look at your old friend."


    Sadika raised his head. As soon as he saw the emperor''s beard, his eyes widened and his face looked unbelievable. Emperor Xu didn''t go south to live in seclusion in Peshawar city. How could he follow the Qin army.


    Sadika''s mind changed and she understood.


    It was Emperor Xu who betrayed him.


    It was Dixu who surrendered to Zhang Xiu and made Zhang Xiu know where his troops were. Then Dixu took the Qin army to the mountain forest and set fire to Shaoshan forest, so that he was in a desperate situation and most of his troops died in the fire.


    Sadika''s heart, suddenly rose endless resentment.


    He was not reconciled.


    He is full of killing intention.


    I want to kill Dixu.


    Sadika was on her knees, clutching the ground.


    Di Xu looked at sadika and said, "sadika, have you ever thought about it. In the twinkling of an eye, he became a prisoner. Once upon a time, I could make you king of Kushan. Today, I can make you lose everything. You are to blame for all this. "


    Sadika was angry in his heart and tried to roar: "emperor Xu, don''t be arrogant. Dixu, do you know that because of your betrayal, hundreds of thousands of guishuanger Lang were all buried in the sea of fire. Are you not afraid that they will come to you for your life in the middle of the night? "


    "For life?"


    Emperor Xu snorted and said, "they deserve it. They follow the wrong person. I can kill them once, and I can kill them a second time. If they come in the middle of the night to ask for their lives, I can kill them twice as well. "


    After a pause, the emperor must continue: "it''s you, sadika, who are determined to go your own way. Do you know that you are responsible for all this. If it wasn''t for your stupidity, if it wasn''t for your headstrong, it couldn''t be like this. "


    Sadika still wanted to talk, but looking at Dixu''s proud appearance, he suddenly lost his interest in speaking.


    Not at all.


    Because now speaking, can only let emperor must be proud.

 Chapter 1401

    Emperor Xu was resentful of sadika, so when sadika didn''t speak, Emperor Xu didn''t give up. He turned to Zhao Yun and said in a deep voice, "General Zhao, can you give sadika to me?"


    "No way!"


    Zhao Yun didn''t even think about it and refused.


    The emperor''s face was stiff.


    He thought he had made a great contribution. It should not be difficult for him to ask sadika. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun refused without any hesitation.


    Zhao Yun''s eyes twinkled with wisdom and said: "emperor Xu, sadika is the king of Kushan. Even though the news of his becoming king never came back to Peshawar. But he is also the king of kusana. In addition, he was the first of all the nobles in Kushan. It needs to be handed over to your majesty. "


    "Yes


    Emperor Xu nodded.


    With a wave of Zhao Yun''s hand, the soldiers came forward and directly detained sadika. The rest of the generals in Kushan army were also detained by the soldiers. Everyone, without exception, is under control. Then Zhao Yun arranges the sentinel to return and report the news to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhao Yun did not stop and did not act. He separated one thousand white horses and ordered them to encircle the rest of the Kushan soldiers, because there were also Kushan soldiers around the mountain forest.


    Time goes by.


    In the afternoon and evening, the army led by Zhang Xiu caught up with Zhao Yun from the rear.


    After the two sides meet, Zhao Yun brings sadika to Zhang Xiu and says, "Your Majesty, sadika has been captured alive, and the rest of the Kushan generals have also been captured alive. Please your majesty decide what to do with sadika?"


    Zhang Xiu looks at sadika in front of her.


    Thinking about the solution.


    In fact, sadika is of little use to Zhang Xiu. After all, sadika was born into a noble family. Such Brahman nobles are destined to be cleaned up by Zhang Xiu, so it is useless to leave sadika.


    Seeing that Zhang Xiu''s expression was not right, sadika seemed to deal with him, and immediately said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say, I have something to say. Please give me a chance to speak."


    "Say it," said Zhang Xiu


    Sadika then said, "Your Majesty, sadika is willing to bring his family to Daqin. Moreover, sadika knew that the nobles of Daqin were willing to hand over their land and money, release their slaves, and no longer enjoy the treatment of nobles. He was willing to be an ordinary people of Daqin. Please, your majesty, give sadika a chance. "


    After a pause, sadika continued: "besides, I''m useful. I have important news. I''d like to tell the emperor that it must be useful to his majesty."


    "Say it!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded slightly: "if the information you mentioned is useful and you are willing to repent sincerely, I can consider not killing you and sparing your family''s life."


    "Yes, yes!"


    Sadika was overjoyed.


    Here comes the opportunity.


    He doesn''t want to die.


    Especially before, he knew that the emperor needed to arrest him, so sadika''s heart was willing to show his value. In this way, we can get Zhang Xiu''s praise and save our lives.


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "to your majesty, I have three important pieces of news."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was surprised and said, "Oh, there are three pieces of news. What are these three pieces of news? As long as the news you mentioned is meritorious, I can even consider letting you continue to be an official. "


    Thank you, your majesty, for your kindness


    Sadika kowtowed his thanks and said slowly, "the first news of the sinner is that the sinner knows that there is a secret road in Peshawar. This secret road can lead from the outside of Peshawar to the inside of Peshawar. "


    "Although the army of Kushan was defeated, the nobles of Kushan would not surrender. Because if you surrender, you lose everything. "


    "So they will resist."


    "Your Majesty, if you want to capture Peshawar, you still have some difficulties. But through the secret Road, your Majesty''s army can easily enter the city of Peshawar, cooperate with each other inside and outside, and easily seize the city of Peshawar. "


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "this is an opportunity for your majesty to seize Peshawar easily."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu''s eyes brightened.


    It''s really an opportunity.


    Peshawar is the capital of Kushan. Such a city can not be easily broken. Even if Zhang Xiu went south with a great victory, the nobles of Kushan would certainly unite to resist, knowing that Zhang Xiu wanted to abolish the caste system of Kushan.


    So it''s not easy to attack Peshawar.


    Now, there is a shortcut.


    With a smile on her face, Zhang Xiu continued: "your message is very important and useful. I have adopted it. Now, what''s your second message? "


    Sadika said solemnly, "the second message to your majesty is that the sinner has a gold mine and a silver mine. These two places belong to my sadika family. The sinner is willing to give these two mines to his majesty. "After a pause, sadika continued: "these two mineral deposits are extremely rich. The sadika family has only been mining for two or three years. In these two or three years, the mining is just a drop in the bucket. And mines in many places, which can be mined in the open pit, are really rich mines. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "go on!"


    For Zhang Xiu, this second piece of news is also excellent.


    There are not too many gold and silver mines, and the state needs to reserve enough gold and silver. Only with enough gold and silver can we stabilize prices and ensure the stability of the market.


    In fact, the value of gold and silver mines is immeasurable and extremely important.


    Sadika said again: "the third piece of news about sinners is about population. Nowadays, the population of Kushan is mainly concentrated in towns. However, as far as I know, there is a tribe about 300 miles south of Peshawar City, which is located in the deep mountains and forests. It has a tribal population of at least 100000. The sinner knows his way and is willing to lead the way for his majesty and help him conquer the tribe and gain a population of 100000. "


    In this era, people are resources.


    With enough population, there is enough strength.


    Because in the era of cold weapons, any war needs to rely on people to build, and it needs to rely on enough soldiers to fight, so enough population is enough resources.


    One hundred thousand people, it''s very important.


    In particular, Kushan lost at least half a million troops in this war, and lost so many people all at once. Kushan also needed to replenish its population. With 100000 people, it is also very valuable for local development.


    After sadika finished, he looked at Zhang Xiu and said, "please be kind to your majesty. Sinners are willing to commit crimes."


    Zhang xiudao said: "I really say that your news is useful. I''ll give you a chance. This time, your three messages are very important and useful. Your life is saved. But in the future, if you have any transgressions, you will not be spared. "


    "No, it won''t be."


    Sadika shook her head and promised.


    He knows that this is not the age of Kushan, but the world of Daqin. Now that Daqin is here, he can only behave himself. As long as he can survive, that''s good.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I''m looking forward to the third point you mentioned. As long as this point is completed, I said that I would let you be an official, so I will let you be an official


    "Thank you, Ron!"


    Sadika''s heart is even more joyful.


    As long as he becomes an official, he has the ability to protect himself and his family''s safety.

 Chapter 1402

    After taking sadika, Zhang Xiu did not meet the rest of the Kushan nobles, but took the rest of them into custody. Then, Zhang Xiu arranged an army to sweep the troops around the mountain forest.


    For Zhang Xiu, this is a very simple thing.


    Before that, Zhang Xiu led his troops to the south of Motianling. When he met the guishuang army at the foot of the mountain, he won the battle. Now it''s even easier to sweep away some of the disabled and defeated generals near the mountain forest.


    After a day''s delay, Zhang Xiu finished cleaning up. After a night''s rest, she led her army south in the morning of the next day.


    This time, it''s going straight to Peshawar.


    When the army led by Zhang Xiu headed for Peshawar City, the news of the war situation in the area of Motianling had already spread. News of Indra''s death, sadika''s capture and the defeat of 600000 troops has been sent back to Peshawar.


    The whole city of Peshawar was in a state of panic.


    600000 troops.


    That''s not a small number.


    600000 troops were defeated, so the whole people of Peshawar were in fear. But when the people are scared, their hearts are looking forward to it, because for the people, they hope that Daqin will come soon.


    Because when the Qin army arrived, the caste system would be abolished. The abolition of caste system is good for thousands of people, but it is not good news for the noble of Kushan.


    But now there are few aristocrats in Peshawar.


    After all, the main principal, in fact, went to the north, all by Zhang Xiu. So now many nobles in Peshawar are more like headless flies.


    On this day, all the nobles gathered in the house of the sadika family.


    Although sadika is not there, there is also sadika''s eldest son, weias, in sadika''s family. Weias was in his prime of life, and very capable.


    He sat on the throne.


    Below, there are people from different families.


    Weias said in a deep voice: "you guys, now the front line is defeated. Tell me what we should do now. Now, we have to come up with a plan. Otherwise, Daqin''s army will soon reach Peshawar. Now there are few people in Peshawar. If we are not ready, we will have to sit and wait to die. "


    When they heard the words, they all looked alarmed.


    All worried about their situation.


    If the troops of the Qin Dynasty went south only to destroy Kushan, but not to the nobles of Kushan, then these nobles must have become the leading Party and surrendered.


    The problem is that Daqin wanted to destroy all the nobles.


    This makes the two sides naturally antagonistic.


    Even though these Brahman nobles and the nobles of other castes are too weak to resist, they still have to fight to the end, otherwise they will be destroyed.


    "Mr. weias, but with our strength, we can''t stop the soldiers of Qin. You know, the army of the Qin Dynasty has come down to the south to fight. With our strength, we can''t carry it! "


    In the hall, a fat middle-aged man spoke.


    The middle-aged man continued: "Zhang Xiu has destroyed our 600000 troops, and now she is heading south with a great victory. Even sadika, the father of Prince weias, fell into the hands of the Qin people. How can we resist? "


    The rest echoed.


    All of them are sad, because for them, they are in a desperate situation.


    To resist, but not to stop.


    If you want to surrender, you can''t keep your wealth.


    That''s what''s embarrassing.


    Weiyasi coughed twice, and the scene suddenly quieted down. Everyone''s eyes fell on weiyasi. Weiyasi said in a deep voice: "although my father is in the hands of the Qin army, I can''t manage so much for the sake of my family, even if it involves my father''s life, because if I want to take care of my father''s safety, I can''t take care of my family."


    "Ladies and gentlemen, who doesn''t know that Zhang Xiu can''t be stopped?"


    "Everybody knows."


    "But if we don''t resist, there will be nothing. Of course, you can also escape Peshawar. The question is, where can you escape from Peshawar? "


    "The city of mogatuo in the south?"


    Weias said in a deep voice: "however, after the great Qin came and took Peshawar City, the southern city of mogatuo and other places were also not peaceful and difficult to avoid. Therefore, today''s Kushan has no peace and pure land. Now, there is only one war! "


    After hearing this, they finally agreed.


    They also know that they have no choice.


    After all, there is no way out.


    Weias said in a deep voice, "everyone, please return immediately and mobilize your own troops. I immediately went to lobby today''s city guard. I expect that he will be on our side. After all, kuotar, the great general of the city, is also of noble origin. "


    "Yes


    And when they were commanded, they all arose and departed.


    Even the major families have given too much power before, but now they don''t have much power. But now they are biting their teeth, and they have to continue to hold on. Even if they are selling iron, they have to continue to donate their troops to ensure that they can resist the attack of the Qin army. Otherwise, their families will be confiscated, and even themselves will be disposed of.So there is no choice.


    After the crowd left, weias changed his clothes and began to run to the tower.


    He went to the castle to visit koutar.


    After all, if we want to defend the city, we need kuotar''s support. If even kuotar doesn''t agree with us. Well, it''s almost impossible to keep Peshawar.


    When weias arrived at the north gate of Peshawar, he went straight up to the tower and saw kuotar on the tower.


    He didn''t beat around the Bush and said straight to the point: "Lord kuotar, I''m here to discuss how to deal with the Qin army. I have summoned the nobles of Peshawar to mobilize their forces again. "


    After a pause, weias continued: "as long as there are enough troops and the strength of Peshawar, it will not be difficult to block the Qin army. Our task is not to defeat the Qin army, but to defend the city of Peshawar. What do you think? "


    Kuotal was also a noble himself.


    He didn''t want to lose his power.


    Therefore, kuotar directly chose to agree and said in a deep voice: "Mr. weiyasi, it''s no problem to resist the Qin army. But how much power is there? If we are short of troops, we have to resist, that is to watch the moon in the water. Therefore, to resist the army of the Qin Dynasty, we must have enough strength. "


    Weias said in a deep voice, "please don''t worry about that. In terms of military strength, I have organized enough forces. Because in today''s situation, the major families still say that even if they smash the pot and sell iron, they have to block the army of Daqin. So you don''t have to worry about being unstoppable. We have enough strength to resist the Qin army. "


    "That''s good, that''s good!"


    As soon as kuotal heard it, he immediately relaxed.


    He is a veteran on the battlefield and is good at fighting. But in this battle, he stayed to guard Peshawar. He defended the city of Peshawar, and with the help of its fortifications, he was able to withstand hundreds of thousands of the Qin army.


    This is kuotar''s strength.


    It''s also the strength of the defensive side.


    Kuotal thought for a moment, with a worried look on his face, and asked, "Mr. weias, according to the news from the front line. Your father, Lord sadika, has been captured by the Qin army. When Daqin''s army comes to kill you, they will come to Peshawar. If Daqin Zhang Xiu threatens you with sadika, what will you do then? "


    Weias said: "all for the family!"


    In a word, weias has made his attitude clear. In front of the family, even if sadika was his father, he would not change his decision to resist Daqin.


    On hearing this, kuotal thumbed up and said, "Mr. weias said it well. Since Mr. weias has said it, I will not say more. In a word, resist to the end. "


    "Resist to the end!"


    Weias spoke with a loud voice.


    At that moment, weias left, because he wanted to mobilize all the forces, gather all the private soldiers of the family together, and then bring them to the north of Peshawar City, and give them to kuotar to resist.

 Chapter 1403

    Time goes by day.


    In July, the weather did not become cool, as always hot. The Qin army led by Zhang Xiu finally arrived in Peshawar, which was only half an hour away.


    As the army approaches, Zhang Xiu looks forward to it.


    In this case, the city of Peshawar was completely taken and the control of Peshawar was obtained.


    When Zhang Xiu led her troops on the way, the royal guards returned from the front line. When the royal guards reported the news to Wang Yue, Wang Yue immediately reported it and presented the letter to Zhang Xiu.


    After reading the letter, Zhang Xiu immediately frowned.


    The content of the letter is the situation in Peshawar city. It is that weias, together with the nobles of Peshawar City, once again organized his troops to give them to kuotar to resist his army.


    Although such a situation does not affect Zhang Xiu''s entry into the city, after all, he has information from sadika.


    However, this will also increase the difficulty of Zhang Xiu.


    After all, there are many people who resist.


    Zhang Xiu arranged for someone to call sadika and said, "sadika, now your son weias has joined forces with the general kuotar of Peshawar city to summon the nobles of Peshawar city to resist my army. Tell me if I should believe you. Or do you deserve my trust? "


    "Trust, humble duty, trustworthy."


    Sadika was excited and said: "Your Majesty, the boy of weias, that''s to seize power. Your majesty, please rest assured that as soon as the army enters the secret passage, the humble leader will kill the boy to prove his determination. "


    For sadika, weias doesn''t care about his life or death, so he doesn''t care about weias.


    More than one son.


    It doesn''t matter if a weias is dead.


    The most important thing is that weiyasmin knows that sadika has fallen into Zhang Xiu''s hands, and even leads the soldiers to resist with kuotar. For sadika, such a decision is tantamount to betraying sadika, regardless of his life and death.


    So sadika doesn''t care about weias.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "but does weias know the secret of your family?"


    "I don''t know!"


    Sadika immediately shook his head and said, "tell your majesty, this secret road is only known by the family owners of the past dynasties, and it''s face-to-face. I didn''t tell wyas, so he couldn''t have known. Because this secret road is the last way for the family to survive, and no one will know about it. Once there is a real crisis of life and death in the family, this secret road is the last life, so only I know. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "that''s good!"


    Zhang Xiu believes sadika''s words, because sadika is in his hands and has no choice.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and sadika was taken down.


    The army continued on their way to Peshawar.


    When the army arrived at Peshawar City, Zhang Xiu began to divide her forces and sent 30000 elite soldiers to Ganning and shamoko. With 30000 talents, they let sadika lead the way and went straight to the secret Road, ready to enter the city from the secret road.


    Zhang Xiu led the army straight to the north city of Peshawar city. This was an official way to let Peshawar city''s sentinel get information, so as to attract the attention of weias and kuotar.


    As long as two people''s attention, are attracted by Zhang Xiu. So Ganning and his party, after killing from sadika''s home, can immediately kill from inside the city and cooperate with Zhang Xiu.


    In this way, Peshawar will be destroyed.


    The army moved on, and the distance was getting closer. When it was less than six miles away, the news had reached Peshawar. Weias and kuotar learned the news, and they have been arrayed in the north city to prepare for the first World War.


    In this war, neither of them dare to relax.


    Because it''s a battle of life and death.


    Once the war is defeated, the city of Peshawar will fall, and all the nobles will be enslaved by Zhang Xiu.


    Kuotal was dressed in armour. He was leaning on a broad sword in his hand. His eyes were sharp outside the city, and he said: "master weias, this is your first time to go to the battlefield. Are you afraid? "


    "I''m afraid!"


    Weias said with a smile: "life and death crisis, how can we not be afraid of it? However, even if I was afraid, I had no choice but to go ahead, because I had no choice. This is a war, it must be a war. "


    "Yes, we have no choice."


    Kuotar clenched his teeth. He raised his broad sword slightly and hit the ground again with a clang sound. He said: "in this battle, we can only win but not lose. As long as we go all out and stick to the end, with the help of the firmness of the city, we will win."


    "Yes, we must win!"


    Weias immediately agreed.


    The two chatted, and time went by.


    When the city upstairs, suddenly there was a cry: "the Qin army is coming."


    This cry spread out, all the garrison in the city, all cheer up, all face is full of awe. At the same time, kuotal and weias looked on the official road outside the city.In the distance of the official road outside the city of Peshawar, banners and banners fluttered, and the mighty army appeared in the sight of the public.


    This army is the Qin army.


    Zhang Xiu is CE Ma standing in the front. His eyes fall on the city of Peshawar. This city is indeed magnificent and impregnable.


    It is the capital of Kushan.


    When less than a hundred paces from Peshawar, the army stopped.


    Zhang Xiu is forward, he looked up to the city upstairs, roared: "which is weiyasi, come out to talk."


    Now, he is not going to attack the city.


    It''s about procrastination.


    Because Ganning, under the leadership of sadika, has already begun to act. As long as we delay a little longer, the army led by Ganning will soon be able to fight in the North City after they come out of sadika''s home.


    By then, the north city will be broken.


    Weiyasi put his hands on the female wall. He stared at Zhang Xiu and gritted his teeth: "Zhang Xiu, I am weiyasi. Now when you come to Peshawar, you call me. The intention is to threaten me with the life of my father sadika. I tell you, it''s impossible. I will never accept the threat. "


    Zhang Xiu laughed and said in a deep voice: "weiyasi, you are wrong. I will not threaten you."


    What do you mean


    Zhang Xiu replied: "my meaning is very simple, because when you organize troops in Peshawar city to resist me. I''ll kill sadika, who has surrendered to me and is willing to work for me. Because of your resistance, I can only kill sadika. Your father died because of you. What''s your mood at this moment? "


    Boom!!


    After hearing this, weias seemed to have thunder in his head.


    He was in a daze.


    His father is dead.


    Weias predicted many kinds of situations, but he didn''t. The sudden death news made the stone in weias''s heart break, and he felt the pain coming out.


    It was his father, after all.


    He was killed.

 Chapter 1404

    "Zhang Xiu, damn you!"


    Weias grabbed the wall with both hands and tried to roar. In his eyes, there was a look of anger, incomparable anger. But somehow, weias''s heart, but also inexplicable pleasure, because there is no difficult choice.


    Zhang Xiu sneered: "weiyasi, you should be glad! Fortunately, sadika is dead. If not, you are now in a difficult choice. "


    Weiyasi said: "Zhang Xiu, I will kill you."


    "Kill me?"


    Zhang Xiu sneer, disdain way: "with you weiyasi, want to kill me, that is a fool dream.". The first step you''re going to take to kill me is out of town. But I ask you, in front of my army, do you dare to go out of the city to fight? "


    Wyatton was dumb.


    Out of town.


    That''s impossible, no matter what.


    Because weias is very clear that once he goes out of the city, he will lose the advantage and even be easily defeated. Weias''s advantage now is a city of Peshawar. He can only defend Peshawar to drag Zhang Xiu''s army to death.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "weiyasi, why don''t you talk. You don''t put words, no one will look down on you, no one will look down on you. So, honestly hide, don''t talk wild. Otherwise, it''s a slap in the face. "


    Weiyasi said: "Zhang Xiu, don''t talk nonsense. If you have the courage, attack the city."


    "To attack a city is to attack."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "but how to attack the city of Peshawar is a bit particular."


    Weias said: "you are self righteous. You have to pay attention to attacking the city. I tell you, Peshawar is here. If you want to break Peshawar, it''s impossible. With your strength, it is impossible to break Peshawar. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "you''ll see."


    With that, Zhang Xiu returned to the army. As soon as he waved, the messenger passed on the news. Not long after that, the artillery moved forward one by one, and the cannons opened their positions behind the army and began to load shells.


    "Fire!"


    Artillery commander Yan Fei, shouting orders.


    With a command, the soldiers immediately ignited, the wire burned, and a moment later, the deafening sound of guns rang out. Each shell, rising from the rear of the most powerful army, crossed an arc in the air and flew to the head of Peshawar.


    "Dodge, dodge!"


    Kuotar stood at the head of the city, shouting orders.


    One by one, all the soldiers took shelter to avoid being bombarded.


    "Boom!"


    The first shell fell on the tower and exploded. At that time, stones splashed on the tower and the tower was shaking.


    "Boom! Boom! Boom


    Explosions, one after another.


    More and more explosions made the whole city building seem to be a sea of fire.


    The soldiers on the tower were all nervous and panicked. Because after the first wave of explosion, there was another shell coming, causing a mess on the city tower.


    That is to say, the city of Peshawar is made of the hardest blue stone. So even if the explosion happened, it didn''t hurt the subject of Peshawar.


    Kuotal was hiding in the corner, head down all the time.


    He firmly believes that he can hold on.


    So even though there was a lot of gunfire, kuotar still gritted his teeth.


    The bombing lasted nearly two quarters of an hour. The smoke cleared away, and the castle was in a mess, with the bodies of many soldiers lying on the ground. These soldiers were blown to the ground, bloody and even debris.


    The whole scene was miserable.


    In particular, pools of blood flowed out and flowed on the city tower, which filled with the smell of blood.


    Weias is a rich man after all.


    Never been to war.


    So when weias stood up and saw the mess, saw a bloody wreck, especially the smell of blood in his nose, he immediately couldn''t help but put his hand on the tower and kept nauseous.


    Kuotar, with a solemn face, ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield quickly.


    The battle has just begun.


    Next, the dead will be normal.


    Especially for a veteran like kuotar, such a killing is not big. He had already stood up and looked out of the city. Now the smoke and dust had dispersed and the artillery was no longer attacking. Maybe the Qin army was going to attack.


    So kuotal braced up and prepared to order his soldiers to meet the enemy.


    But Zhang Xiu did not order the soldiers to attack, because now, he has no plan to let the soldiers attack. So Zhang Xiu stepped forward from the side again and said in a loud voice, "weias, how do you feel about this artillery bombing?"


    Weias is now throwing up.


    There''s no strength left.


    There is no answer at all.


    Kuotar answered and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Xiu, your bombardment is just a piece of cake. If you want to use such bombardment, you will frighten the soldiers of Peshawar. It''s a daydreamZhang Xiu knew the situation of Peshawar City, so she immediately had a guess and said, "are you kuotar?"


    "Yes


    Kuotal replied immediately.


    At this moment, kuotar was a little nervous. Because he found that although Zhang Xiu had never been to Peshawar, she had a good grasp of the news of Peshawar. It can be seen that Zhang Xiu must have ears and eyes in Peshawar.


    In this way, everything in Peshawar is exposed to Zhang Xiu.


    It will be easy for Zhang Xiu to deal with a Peshawar city that she knows like the back of her hand. But on the other hand, kuotar didn''t know much about Zhang Xiu. He certainly couldn''t compare with Zhang Xiu.


    Because of the mistakes and omissions of information and the untimely feedback of information, he will fall behind others everywhere.


    Even by Zhang Xiu calculation.


    If you want to break Zhang Shawa''s deep embroidery, you may be breathing. As long as I''m in Peshawar, you won''t succeed. You are doomed to failure


    Zhang Xiu said: "kuotar, you are as naive as weias. With your strength, it is impossible to block my troops. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "the army led by me has arrived. Today, the news of my arrival will spread throughout Peshawar. Countless people will know that the Master Wang they are welcoming is coming, and the people who liberate them are coming. "


    "When the people know, they will help me."


    "So today, I will not attack."


    "It''s just a symbolic firing. It''s just an intention. I won''t attack until tomorrow morning, especially when the news of my arrival is completely spread. Because when we attack at this time, we will surely win the support of the people and even help them. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "kuotar, you don''t even have the most basic popular support. It''s impossible for you to resist my army only by the mob provided by a group of nobles. You will be defeated this time. "


    Today, Zhang Xiu is constantly attacking each other''s morale.


    At the same time, it delays time.


    Buy time for Ganning''s action.


    "Whew!"


    All of a sudden, a sharp air breaking sound rose from the city. It''s the sound of an arrow breaking through the air, and it''s not far from the gate. After seeing this, Zhang Xiu showed a bright smile on her face.


    It''s done!


    Ganning has entered the city.


    Ganning had made an agreement with Ganning when he led the troops. Once Ganning enters the city smoothly, he releases the arrow at the position of sadika family to inform Zhang Xiu.


    Now it seems that the sadika family is not far from the north city.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "kuotar, it seems that I don''t need tomorrow when I break the city. Today, I will break the city of Peshawar. Now, I''ll give you a chance to open the gate and surrender. I''ll spare your life. But if you want to fight to the end, I will take your dog''s life. "


    Kuotar said: "Zhang Xiu, I''ll see how you take my dog''s life."


    Zhang xiudao: "and wait and see."


    He stopped talking.


    Zhang Xiu''s sudden change makes kuotar frown, because Zhang Xiu is too strange. But even though Zhang Xiu was eccentric, she said that today she was going to break the city of Peshawar.


    Kuotar heart alert, said: "give me the spirit, be careful to deal with."


    "Yes


    When they were ordered, they were all on guard.


    Everyone looked at each other, but they didn''t know where the danger was, because now the situation is too strange and frightening. They always feel that they have no bottom in their hearts.


    Time goes by little.


    But a little more than a quarter of an hour later, suddenly, a soldier on the tower panicked and exclaimed, "general kuotar, there are troops in the city."


    As soon as kuotal heard it, he turned around and looked at it.


    On the streets of the North City, an army with top helmets and flapping armor, running neatly, carrying weapons, came straight to the tower of the north city.


    This is the dress of Qin army.


    The Qin army has entered the city.

 Chapter 1405

    Kuotar''s mind, there is a moment of blank, immediately, then recovered calm. He took a deep breath and exclaimed, "come on, stop the Qin army for me."


    He turned around, searched around, and said, "Su Lanji, you led 10000 elite soldiers to the city immediately to resist the Qin army. The Qin army in this city must be blocked and can''t let these people get near. "


    "Yes


    Sulangi immediately responded.


    He is a valiant general under kuotar''s command, holding a big knife, with strong combat effectiveness.


    So, with ten thousand elite soldiers, Su Lanji quickly went down to the castle and went straight to the Qin army in the city. For Su Lanji, he not only wanted to block the Qin army, but also to defeat the other side.


    He has his own night.


    "Kill


    Sulanji shouts orders and leads his men to sprint quickly.


    He himself was charging on horseback.


    Sulanji is the first to rush in the front. The soldiers under his command, influenced by sulanji, are also rushing. This is the truth of the so-called "one soldier, one general, one nest".


    Shamoko followed Ganning in action. When he saw that someone from the other side had killed him first, he showed a bright smile on his face. As soon as he patted the horse on the back, he drove the horse out.


    There was no discussion with Ganning at all.


    Gan Ning saw this, but he sighed in his heart. He couldn''t stop it. In fact, according to the idea of both sides, Ganning was ready to bombard each other when the distance was less than 30 steps.


    In this way, the soldiers of Kushan can be killed as much as possible. In particular, the street is not very wide. Grenades can contribute to the success. But now, shamoko broke Ganning''s plan by rushing out first, which made Ganning have no choice but to fight directly.


    The sound of the horse''s hooves is constantly ringing.


    Shamoko rushed forward quickly, said it was late, then it was fast, and in a twinkling of an eye, he met sulanji. When the distance between the two sides was less than two Zhang, the iron briers in shamoko''s hands were already swung up and smashed down.


    "A small skill of carving insects!"


    The sword in sulanji''s hand came up.


    He is confident that he can win.


    "Dang!"


    When the two weapons collided with each other, a flash of sparks burst out from the place where they collided. Immediately after that, peiran''s great power burst out and rushed to both sides.


    Shamoko was not affected, but sulanji was struck by lightning. Holding the sword in his hand, he immediately became numb and painful. Even the tiger mouth of his palm was directly torn, and blood overflowed from the tiger mouth.


    Shamoko was not affected.


    At the moment of the weapon impact, with the help of the rebound force, the iron tribulus flower in the air dribbles around and then smashes down again.


    Sulanji was stunned by the first move. Now, facing the Tribulus terrestris once again smashed by shamoko, he can''t avoid it. He can only bite his teeth, endure the pain on his palm, and resist it again.


    The two weapons collided again, and in an instant, the powerful force broke out again, pounding sulanji''s hand.


    Sulangi snorted.


    When he held the weapon, he felt heartbreaking pain. The sword in his hand had already been knocked out. And shamoko''s Tribulus terrestris continued to fall, bang, on sulanji''s head.


    Just listen to the sound of Bo, the head is broken.


    Sulanji''s body is like a drunken person. He shakes twice and loses consciousness. His body is already fighting and falls down immediately, and there is no breath any more.


    After shamoko killed sulanji, he yelled "kill me". At the same time, shamoko still rushed forward. At this moment, shamoko was like the God of war.


    Ten thousand Kushan people on the other side were all confused.


    Surangi''s dead.


    Sulanji was their chief general, but he died on the battlefield. So these soldiers were rushing forward, but all of a sudden, they stopped.


    It''s stopped.


    "Run away!"


    In the crowd, there were Kushan soldiers shouting. They turned around and ran to the side. They did not dare to stay any longer.


    "Run away!"


    "Withdraw, withdraw to the upper level of the city."


    ¡­¡­


    More and more soldiers yelled, these soldiers saw Su Lanji was killed, and the Qin army was so fierce, no one was willing to resist, all of them retreated quickly.


    Shamoko was stunned when he killed nothing.


    What''s going on?


    I ran away.


    However, shamoko did not stop and pursued forward. Ganning was not slow either. When he saw this, he laughed in his heart, because shamoko broke his plan, but completed it perfectly, which scared all Kushan soldiers to escape.


    "Kill, open the gate and welcome your majesty into the city."


    Ganning shouts orders.


    He led the soldiers to rush forward quickly, and already began to approach the gate.At this time, kuotar saw the scene of suranji''s death and the soldiers'' escape, and he said in his heart that it was over. Immediately, kuotar felt that his legs were soft, and he collapsed on the ground.


    Lost!


    The defeat was too simple.


    Kuotal felt weak all over, and even no longer had the will to resist. Because although he has a certain number of troops, as long as Zhang Xiu enters the city, these troops under his command will not be able to carry.


    Weias also followed. He was also silly when he saw the scene in the city.


    "How could it be?"


    "Why did the Qin army suddenly appear in the city? It''s impossible!"


    "Why


    ¡­¡­


    Wyas murmured to himself.


    He had previously vomited faintly because of the bloody scene on the city floor, and his whole body was soft. Now, seeing the Qin army killed in the city, and looking at the Qin army arrayed outside the city, weias''s heart was no longer lucky.


    I feel desperate.


    Bang Dang!


    The gates of Peshawar have been opened.


    When Zhang Xiu saw it outside the city, he waved his hand. Zhao Yun''s white horse Yi Cong had already driven his horse out of the city. He rushed forward quickly and entered the city in a twinkling of an eye. After that, Zhang Ren leads the army to enter, and then quickly takes control of the gate.


    Today''s situation, the garrison of kuotar and weias, is not enough to fear. Even the soldiers in the garrison did not dare to resist at all. When they met the Qin soldiers, they were all demoted.


    No one is willing to fight to the end.


    Zhang Xiu also entered the city from outside.


    When he came to the tower and saw wyas, he shook his head and said, "it''s said that the tiger father has no dog. Sadika is a powerful man, but you, wyas, can''t support the mud on the wall. It''s too weak. Looking at you arrogant and domineering on the city tower, it''s very tough. Now it seems that you are really Jinyu''s bad news. "


    At this moment, sadika followed.


    Seeing sadika, weias was stunned and said in surprise, "father, aren''t you dead?"


    Sadika looked up at Zhang Xiu, and immediately it was clear that Zhang Xiu must have misled weias, otherwise, it could not be so. Sadika snorted and said, "if you don''t mistake me for dead, how can you attract your attention?"


    Weias''s cheek twitched.


    His heart is both happy and helpless.


    Happily, my father didn''t die. Unfortunately, his father took the Qin army into the city.


    Zhang Xiu said faintly: "sadika, weiyasi will give it to you. I don''t care about his life or death. It''s all up to you. If you put him at your disposal, it will offset your contribution to bringing people into the city. "


    "Thank you


    Sadika looked at wayas with sharp eyes.


    There was a killing in his eyes.


    After he was taken down by Zhang Xiu, the villain still insisted on resisting. If he didn''t know there was a secret way, if he didn''t have any use for Zhang Xiu, he would have been killed by Zhang Xiu.


    Sadika''s hand, resting on the hilt at his waist, drew the sword out of its sheath and thrust it straight out.


    "Puchi!"


    There was a dull sound, and the point of the sword ran through the heart of weias.


    Sadika drew his sword out of the sheath. Weias endured the pain and his face was full of ferocious faces. He murmured: "father, father, why do you..." Just half of what he said, he just heard a plop, and his body had fallen to the ground without any breath.


    Sadika turned to look at Zhang Xiu, knelt down on one knee and said: "Your Majesty, this evil son offended your majesty. I killed him to make an example. This villain is very sinful. He is in a humble position and has no way to teach his son. Your majesty, please confess his sin. "


    Embroider a way: "wave a hand!"


    "Thank you


    Sadika stood up and stood respectfully on one side.


    Kuotar was detained on one side. He still had a painful look on his face. His eyes were sharp and he said in a deep voice: "Zhang Xiu, the city of Peshawar is solid and indestructible. Moreover, Peshawar, as a king''s city, cannot enter or leave at will. How did your army enter Peshawar? "


    Zhang Xiu said, "didn''t you notice sadika? With sadika as a guide, he found a secret Road, which made it easy for my troops to enter Peshawar. From the beginning, the city of Peshawar was doomed to be unable to stop my army. Your resistance is nothing more than a delay. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "before I spoke to you, I just wanted to attract your attention. I just wanted you not to pay attention to the movement in the city, that''s all."


    "You win!"


    Kuotal heard it with a sigh.


    At this point, what else can we say? Even sadika has become a leading Party, and the fall of Peshawar is normal. Today''s Kushan is completely destroyed because of the fall of Peshawar.


    There is no more precious frost in the world!Kuotar said: "as the leader of Kushan, I am a person of Kushan in life and a ghost of Kushan in death. Please give me a death. I''d rather die than live in disgrace. "


    Zhang xiudao said, "I will help you!"


    "Kill


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    The soldier on one side immediately stabbed out with his sword. The tip of the sword easily penetrated kuotar''s heart. With the spatter of blood, kuotar''s body swayed twice, and then he fell on the ground without any breath.


    Zhang Xiu didn''t take charge of a dead kuotar. He told people to continue to control the four corners of the city gate, then led the soldiers into the city and went straight to the imperial city of Kushan, because this is the real symbol of Kushan

 Chapter 1406

    After Zhang Xiu and his party entered the city, the army stationed in the city. Zhang Xiu, with a small number of soldiers, entered the imperial city directly.


    Today''s imperial city is already in a mess.


    After all, the news of the fall of Peshawar spread to the Imperial City, and many servants, maids and maids, all of whom were afraid of being slaughtered, rushed out.


    Zhang Xiu enters the palace of the imperial city.


    Take your seat.


    Sitting on the throne, he glanced over sadika, Dixu and others below, and then glanced at the rest of the guishuang people. Finally, his eyes closed and he said in a deep voice: "now the capital of guishuang, Peshawar, has fallen. Kushan kingdom was destroyed since then. And because of the previous World War I, Kushan''s forces were almost wiped out. The next step is to wipe out all parties of Kushan. "


    "I''d rather listen to the order!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    "The end will be here!"


    Gan Ning answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "you lead the army under your command to go south from the white Shawa city to the southwest of Kushan and sweep the southwest city pool of Kushan. Remember, the strategy is still the same as Wulei city and Lanshi city. Once a nobleman is born, he must be destroyed, and he must not be allowed to revive. "


    "Here it is


    Gan Ning''s fist should be thrown.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "Gao Lan, listen to the order!"


    "The end will be here!"


    Gao Lan also stood up immediately.


    Zhang Xiu said: "you lead the army under your command. You go south from the city of white Shawa. All the way south, you sweep the city to the south of Kushan."


    "Here it is


    Gao Lan answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Zhang Ren again, saying: "Zhang Ren listens to the order!"


    "Yes


    Zhang Ren immediately got up and answered.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice, "you lead the army south to sweep the southeast of Kushan."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Ren also immediately responded.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s big sleeve brushed, she said, "your army, after a day''s rest, will lead the army south early tomorrow morning."


    "Yes, sir


    Gan Ning, Gao Lan and Zhang Renqi should go down.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes fell on emperor Xu and said, "emperor Xu, now the city of Peshawar has been captured by the Qin Dynasty. However, the reform of Peshawar has not yet been carried out. You are clear about all reform matters. You are the main task of this reform. Can you accomplish the task? "


    Emperor must say: "I promise to complete the task."


    For emperor Xu, he was not worried about doing anything to offend others. Now that he has been subordinated to the Qin Dynasty, he is willing to do anything as long as he can get the respect of Zhang Xiu, make contributions to the Qin Dynasty and stand in the court of the Qin Dynasty.


    He is willing to go even if there is a sea of fire ahead.


    And dare to go.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "very good. As soon as you need to allocate materials and personnel, you can report them to me directly. This time, as long as you do well, I promise to take you back to Daqin and be an official in Daqin. "


    "Thank you


    Emperor Xu was very excited.


    This is his chance.


    Because only when he entered Daqin, he had the chance to really integrate into Daqin. Even in the heart of emperor Xu, he wanted to see how the great Qin Dynasty was.


    Zhang Xiu said again: "sadika!"


    "Yes


    Sadika also answered quickly.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in Peshawar today, officials need to make an adjustment. An official from all four sides will be responsible for your investigation. Can you finish it in a month? "


    "Yes


    Sadika also answered immediately.


    As an outstanding sadika, he knows that this is the first time Zhang Xiu has entrusted him with an important task. This time things, if it is done well, then he may really get Zhang Xiu''s trust.


    On the contrary, if sadika takes this opportunity to enrich his own pocket, even ignores the national law and does not handle it impartially, and finally comes to Zhang Xiu''s hands, he may be abandoned.


    In other words, this is Zhang Xiu''s test for him.


    Sadika even promised: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that you will complete the task. However, before that, I had another doubt, that is, I had mentioned that there was a tribe where people gathered in the mountains near Peshawar city. This tribe is a wild man in the mountains. If we can move these people out, it will be a great resource. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "this matter is not urgent for the time being. We should deal with what we have to deal with now."


    "Yes


    Sadika replied.


    Zhang Xiu said, "let''s all be busy."


    "Here it is


    When they were ordered, they left each other.


    Today, not only the three armies are leaving, but sadika and Dixu are also busy.These people left, and Wang Yue and Zhao Yun stayed.


    Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, can I have a mission for the royal guards this time?"


    Zhang Xiu said: "the royal guards naturally have no time to rest. Sadika and Dixu have to send people to watch their actions carefully to ensure that there is no trouble."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue answers with a fist.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "in addition, Zhao Yun''s army under your command must control the four gates to ensure the safety of Peshawar. As long as Peshawar is in our hands, even if there are still some problems, we are not afraid. If Peshawar changes ownership, we will be in trouble. "


    Zhao Yun said: "Your Majesty, you can rest assured that you will keep the city of Peshawar well. Even a special group of soldiers will be stationed in the city to ensure the security of the city. "


    "Not bad, not bad!" said Zhang Xiu


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "let''s all go. Let''s do our own business."


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue and Zhao Yun also left together.


    In the hall, only Zhang Xiu was left.


    but Zhang embroidery was not idle. He arranged the attendants to draw out all the materials of the book, account books and registered residence of Guizhou.


    In order to control Kushan, we must understand Kushan.


    Otherwise, everything will be in vain.


    Zhang Xiu now lives in the palace for the time being, ignoring things outside. After all, Dixu and sadika have their own priorities and are busy with their own affairs. There are two people who come forward to attract attention. Zhang Xiu is not worried that things will not be finished.


    One is the sage of Kushan, deep calculation.


    One was the king of Kushan, who was always scheming.


    Neither of them is easy.


    They''re all schemers.


    So these two people to deal with things, with two people''s style of doing things, plus two people''s relationship, can easily complete their own things. As long as they can keep their heart, everything will be OK. Of course, on the contrary, if they collude or even collude with each other, they will be dealt with.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s arrangement.


    As time goes by, time goes by.


    The reform in Peshawar is also in full swing. Even now, the common people have begun to belong to Daqin. Because according to the official arrangement, they were no longer slaves but ordinary people when they were subordinated to Daqin.


    In this way, the status of the people has been guaranteed.


    With the broad masses of the people as the foundation, the abolition of the caste system is supported by thousands of people, so such reform is bound to succeed.


    With the continuous reform, there are more and more people who support Daqin. On the contrary, the living space of Kushan''s major families has been weakened a little, even in a desperate situation.

 Chapter 1407

    Peshawar City, West City.


    This is a relatively barren area in Peshawar. A group of people were sitting in a humble residential hall.


    The leader is a young man.


    It''s about twenty.


    This man''s name is kedilei, the youngest son of mahasaro, the Lord of the city of Langshi. Because mahasaro had lived in Peshawar in his early years, and his youngest son had been studying in Peshawar all the time, when mahasaro died in the city of Lange, kedire never went back.


    After the change of landesville, kedilai has been in Peshawar, not going north.


    According to the hatred of kedilei and Zhang Xiu, he can join the army of Indra and avenge Zhang Xiu with Indra. But the problem is that kedirai is loyal to the great prince amoni, and Indra killed amoni, so kedirai can only hide in Peshawar and watch the change for a while.


    But in the end, Indra died.


    Emperor Xu defected.


    Even sadika, the Lord of the nobility in Peshawar, chose to rebel.


    Today, the situation of the Kushan Brahman nobles, as well as the rest of the nobles, is going from bad to worse. As long as they do not hand over money, land and slave population, they will be disposed of.


    These are all menqing''er, who can''t hide the emperor''s beard. Therefore, these nobles in Peshawar can''t escape. They are squeezed one by one, and they all lose a lot of strength in the end.


    Kedilei looked around the crowd and said, "you guys, I invite you to meet in such a remote place to avoid the inquiry of the royal guards of the Qin army. After all, the royal guards of the Qin army are all pervasive and difficult to deal with."


    "The purpose of inviting you here is actually very simple."


    "It''s about discussing how to deal with it."


    "Of course, I don''t plan to assassinate Zhang Xiu, because there are countless guards around her. It''s impossible to assassinate Zhang Xiu. What we have to do is stir up Peshawar and make it unstable. "


    "As long as the city of Peshawar is in turmoil, we have a chance," he said in a deep voice. Even if there is a problem in Peshawar, the rest of the cities of Kabul, Ramsey, Wulei and many cities in the South will follow suit. "


    When they heard this, they all agreed.


    There was a look of approval on each face.


    These people, in fact, are the nobles of Peshawar City, who have suffered heavy losses in today''s reform. However, after all, there are three caves of cunning rabbits. Although these people have suffered heavy losses, they have accumulated a lot for decades or even a hundred years, so they still have some strength.


    "Mr. kedilai, what can you do? Just say it."


    In the crowd, a fat man spoke.


    His name is Dibu.


    Once he was also a Brahman aristocrat, but when he was defeated in Peshawar, he immediately transferred his family property and became a merchant and hid in the market.


    In this way, we can escape the disaster and not be killed by the family. As soon as Dibu opened his mouth, the others echoed, and all of them kept talking.


    With a little smile, kedley said without hesitation: "you guys, it''s really easy to disturb Peshawar. We can''t deal with Zhang Xiu or the officials of Daqin. But we can deal with TISU and sadika. These two people are the key today. If we kill these two people, it will be equivalent to cutting off Zhang Xiu''s two arms, and there will be no one who controls the city of Peshawar. "


    When they heard this, they were all in front of their eyes.


    "Why didn''t I think of such an excellent strategy before?" he praised? Yes, if we assassinate sadika and Dixu, we will weaken Zhang Xiu. The city of Peshawar will be in chaos. "


    After a pause, Dibu said, "but how do we assassinate?"


    "How to assassinate? Do you need me to remind you? The emperor and sadika, who travel through the streets all day, preach and carry out decrees everywhere, only need to send assassins to assassinate them. "


    "I have a warrior under my command who can be an assassin."


    Deb spoke.


    When he opened his mouth, he talked with the others. Each of them was willing to take out their own assassins and wanted to kill sadika and tishu completely.


    For them, as long as they can kill sadika and tishu, it is worth the price.


    Kedilei takes charge of the whole situation. He hears the words of the people, selects and compares them one by one, and finally selects two assassins to kill Dixu and sadika.


    After the negotiation of the assassination, kedilei looked at the crowd again and said, "gentlemen, we are in a desperate situation now. At this time, we should keep a low profile and bear with it. Those who can hide their identities will hide their identities earlier. If you can''t hide your identity, cooperate with Daqin for the time being, and don''t conflict with each other. "


    "Yes


    All of us should go down together.


    They are now scattered. Only with kedilei organization can they have cohesion.


    So one by one, they all follow the arrangement of kedilai.I''m very convinced of cadilly.


    Peshawar, in the palace.


    Today, Zhang Xiu spends most of her time in the imperial city. On the one hand, she spends the summer in Peshawar, on the other hand, she uses it to deal with government affairs and stabilize the situation of Peshawar.


    Today, many memorials are presented to Zhang Xiu every day.


    In particular, sadika and Dixu have made numerous compromises. After all, their authority is limited, and Zhang Xiu needs to read the memorial.


    During this period, the establishment of sadika and Dixu made great contributions.


    The progress of reform is very rapid.


    "Step on it! Step on it


    Just then, the sound of footsteps sounded.


    However, Wang Yue strode in. He bowed to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, the reform of Peshawar city is very smooth now. However, in Peshawar, there is some news spreading


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s the news?"


    Wang Yue zhengse said: "it means that sadika and Dixu are traitors to Kushan who forget their ancestors and betray Kushan. Moreover, there are also rumors that the two men''s obedience to Daqin is for the sake of the tiger. Although the people of Kushan are actually on our side. But the rumors in the market are not good for them. "


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes narrowed and said in a deep voice: "there''s something wrong with this. It is reasonable to say that with the advancement of reform, the common people will support Daqin, and the nobility will be weakened, so it is impossible for rumors to spread. But now, rumors are spreading. In this way, someone must be targeting sadika and tishu. "


    Wang Yue said, "Your Majesty, what shall we do?"


    After thinking about it in her heart, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "this time, we must protect sadika and Emperor Xu. You arrange for Shia to hide behind sadika. The arrangement of Deng Zhan is also hidden by Emperor Xu''s side. In this way, we will be able to protect the safety of both people. But there is no need to tell them about this arrangement. "


    "Here it is


    Wang Yue immediately responded.


    For Wang Yue, arranging Shi''a and Deng Zhan to go out on a mission can also give them something to do.


    After all, there is no war now.

 Chapter 1408

    For emperor Xu, during this time, he felt like a fish in water. Because under the command of Zhang Xiu, he doesn''t need to manage anything, he just needs to concentrate on doing things. Even, there is no one to hold him back. He doesn''t need to pay attention to some trivial things. He just needs to do things well.


    This made emperor Xu very happy.


    In his heart, Emperor Xu even felt that it was a pity that he had wasted half his life. If I met Zhang Xiu in the early years, I might have been able to show my strong points long ago. Only at this age can I think that Zhang Xiu is effective.


    Some time ago, the emperor had to be busy counting the number of nobles, their property and slaves.


    These things have been dealt with by and large.


    But there are still many things in the hands of emperor Xu. He has to deal with all the land.


    Because in his house, there are piles of land deeds, which are presented by various families. He needs to collect all the land deeds, and then classify them all, and set them up carefully.


    However, when it comes to land leases, we need to know the location, the location on the land leases, and whether the marked good land is real good land. This is a big project.


    But emperor Xu was very happy.


    Because he''s happy to see it.


    This sense of fullness made him very intoxicated.


    On this day, in the morning.


    Emperor Xu had breakfast early, put on casual clothes, took two guards out of the residence, and took a carriage to get out of the city. He will go out of the city to inspect the land conditions recorded in the land lease.


    Emperor must board the carriage, two guards, one driving, one sitting on the shaft.


    The wheels rolled and the carriage began to speed up gradually.


    It was less than 30 steps away from the carriage. This was a crossroad. When the carriage was just about to cross the cross road, on one side, a man in ordinary clothes pushed a wooden cart and hit the carriage.


    On this wooden cart, there are two big barrels.


    Inside is well water.


    With the impact of the wooden cart, the barrel hit the carriage, which made the carriage incline and almost fall down. Rao is so, but the water in the barrel is poured, there is a lot of water into the carriage, wet the carriage.


    Emperor Xu could only get out of the carriage.


    His eyes fell on the people pushing the carriage.


    "Plop!"


    The common people knelt down on the ground directly. He kowtowed to the ground with his head and quickly prayed: "please forgive me, please forgive me. The villain didn''t mean it. The villain didn''t mean it. It''s because there''s a barrel, blocking the view. "


    When he spoke, although he was lying on his back, his head had been raised and he was staring at the emperor''s beard.


    At this time, the emperor must walk to the people.


    "Wait a minute, my Lord!"


    The guard of emperor Xu stopped in front of him and his way. He reminded him, "my Lord, I don''t know what''s going on. Please be careful. Don''t go any further. Just stay here and talk. "


    Another guard also said, "yes, my Lord, please be careful. Now there are a lot of craftsmen who want to kill you. It''s the same for you to talk here. "


    Emperor Xu is not stubborn.


    What''s more, it''s just knocking over two buckets of water. It''s not a big problem.


    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "you just get up and talk. It''s just that the water is getting wet. It''s not in the way. It''s just that you have to go back and get water again. It''s not easy for you to get water. I''ll give you some money. "


    He motioned to the guard.


    The guard took out some money from his sleeve and handed it to him. But the people who stood up reached out and took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed it forward.


    This is the assassin.


    He wanted to assassinate emperor Xu.


    But there was a guard around him, and even he was not close to him, so that the assassins could only take the lead.


    "Puchi!"


    With a dull sound, the assassin''s dagger penetrated the heart of the guard. One face to face, then killed. The assassin pulled out his dagger, pushed the guard to the ground, stepped on his feet again, and strode to the emperor''s beard, like he wanted to kill the emperor''s beard and then quickly.


    "Dixu, die!"


    In the assassin''s mouth, he cried out again.


    He took a deep breath, had accelerated again, and quickly approached the guard in front of emperor Xu.


    The dagger came out again.


    The golden sunlight from the sky makes the dagger shine.


    However, the guard also pulled out his sword and quickly blocked it.


    "Dang!"


    There was a crash.


    The dagger collided with the blade, but the assassin''s dagger slipped and got close to the guard''s hand. A sharp dagger is cut on the palm of the hand. In particular, the dagger cuts the iron like mud. If it goes down one by one, half of the guard''s hand will be gone, and the sword will crash to the ground.


    The shrill scream came from the mouth of the self-care guard.As soon as the guard opened his mouth, the assassin had already bullied himself and cut the guard''s throat.


    All at once, blood spattered.


    The guard made a sound in his mouth. The next moment, he had already fallen on the ground.


    In the blink of an eye, two guards were killed.


    Emperor Xu was also flustered at this moment. Only then did he react, but he was too old to beat the assassin at all, and Emperor Xu was not willing to wait for his death, so he said, "why do you want to assassinate me, this brave man? If you want to kill me, you have to give me a reason to die plainly. "


    The assassin said: "you are the traitor of Kushan, you should die


    The assassin moved on.


    At this moment, the emperor''s heart must be dead.


    It''s over!


    You''re dead!


    He didn''t want to be killed. He didn''t want to die.


    The problem is that emperor Xu can''t avoid it at all. He sighs with a sigh in his heart. Now he has found the fun and found the master, but he can''t help his own life and death.


    The emperor must close his eyes and wait for death.


    Just when the emperor had to close his eyes, suddenly, a clear sound came out.


    Emperor Xu opened his eyes immediately.


    There was a tall figure standing in front of him. This figure is extremely fierce and has a strong sense of killing.


    It''s Deng Zhan who came here.


    At the command of Wang Yue, he quietly lurked around emperor Xu to protect his safety. These days, Deng Zhan has been hiding in the dark. After all, no one has assassinated emperor Xu. But today, there are assassins and Emperor Xu''s guards have been killed, so he can only show up.


    With a sword, Deng Zhan swung away the assassin''s dagger.


    "Emperor Xu," he said in a deep voice, "step back a little and get out of the way, lest I hurt you by mistake."


    "Yes, yes!"


    The emperor must hear the words and quickly retreat.


    The assassin was holding a dagger and staring at Deng Zhan. Just a moment ago, he almost succeeded, but just at the moment when he was about to succeed, Deng Zhan suddenly shot out, opened his dagger with one sword, and even stabbed him in the heart with the next sword, forcing him to retreat, so the assassin had sharp eyes and was on guard.


    Deng Zhan''s eyes were sharp. Instead of killing him immediately, he looked around carefully.


    He was worried that the other side had a partner.


    However, Deng Zhan swept a circle down, but did not find any signs.


    Deng Zhan was sure that there would be no more assassins, so he would not delay any more time. As soon as he shook his sword, he had already stabbed it. Although Deng Zhan did not worship Wang Yue as a teacher, he has been learning sword with Wang Yue all these years.


    Even though Deng Zhan''s swordsmanship is better than that of Eliot, Deng Zhan''s swordsmanship has already been extraordinary, and he has already stepped into the arena.


    His sword is like electricity.


    The next moment, it''s in front of the assassin.


    The assassin was startled. He was a little confused because the other side''s swordsmanship was too strong for him to resist. But the problem is, the assassin can''t escape, so he can only block the dagger.


    "Dang!"


    Weapon impact.


    The place where the dagger and blade collided was a flash of Mars.


    Deng Zhan''s swordsmanship, however, has already entered the arena. This sword can''t succeed. He immediately withdraws the sword and hands it out again. The speed of this sword is faster. Even if the assassin barely blocks it, he still pedals backward. By the time of the fifth sword, the assassin hit the sword on his shoulder, while by the time of the sixth sword, Deng Zhan had stabbed the assassin in the heart.


    After six swords, Deng Zhan didn''t even warm up.


    Deng Zhan put his sword into the scabbard, turned to Emperor Xu and said, "emperor Xu, you don''t have to worry about someone who will assassinate you. Your majesty had expected that you might be assassinated, so he arranged for me to protect you in the dark. "


    After hearing this, Emperor Xu said gratefully, "Your Majesty, I am very grateful."


    Immediately, the emperor must thank Deng again.


    At this time, the soldiers who had been patrolling in the city came, and Zhao Yun was the leader. Now Zhao Yun is mainly responsible for the public security in Peshawar City, so when he heard about the assassination, Zhao Yun came quickly and arrived in the shortest time.


    Deng Zhan looked solemn and said: "General Zhao, someone has assassinated emperor Xu. His humble position has been solved. Please ask general Zhao to arrange for people to take in these bodies. "


    Zhao Yun said, "that''s good!"


    As soon as he waved his hand, his soldiers began to move and left with the body of the assassin.


    Zhao Yun said: "goodbye!"


    He didn''t delay much time, because these things are not his worries, they are the things of the royal guards. What Zhao Yun wants to do is to maintain the security of Peshawar.


    Deng Zhandao: "General Zhao, walk slowly!"


    After Zhao Yun left, Deng Zhan looked at emperor Xu and said, "since your guard has been killed. Next, I''ll follow you. "


    "Thank you very much."


    When Emperor Xu heard this, he quickly said thanks.As for emperor Xu, although there are some people who know martial arts in his family. However, martial arts are too humble to be used at all. In particular, the assassin is not simple, let alone underestimated, only Deng Zhan has been following.


    This is the safest way.


    Emperor Xu did not return to the government, because even if he was assassinated, he still had to go out and deal with government affairs.


    This is what he has to do.


    Since Deng Zhan was with emperor Xu, because now emperor Xu''s bodyguard was killed, he turned from the secret to the public to protect emperor Xu''s safety and ensure that emperor Xu continued to deal with government affairs.

 Chapter 1409

    Kedilai now lives in an inn. Even he did not always live in the inn. From time to time, he would change his place of residence, and there was no fixed place.


    Only in this way can we ensure our own safety.


    It''s not going to leak.


    Today''s kedilei, staying in the inn, is not only looking forward to, but also worried. The reason why he is full of expectations is very simple. He is looking forward to the killing of Dixu and sadika. As long as they die, Zhang Xiu''s right arm will be cut off, and everything in Peshawar will stop, and even there will be turbulence.


    Kedilei is very clear that it is definitely impossible to confront Daqin head-on.


    Even so, it is inevitable.


    Therefore, kedirai''s current plan is actually very simple, that is, to disrupt Peshawar and make Peshawar always in a turbulent environment. He did not believe that Zhang Xiu, as the king of the Qin Dynasty, would always live in Kushan. Zhang Xiu would leave one day.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu leaves, he can take action.


    This is the plan of kedley.


    And the reason why kedilei is worried is that he is afraid of failure.


    This action is very important. Under the premise that all the nobles are in a state of panic and uneasiness, if this action is successful, it can greatly gather strength and boost morale, so that the restless nobles can settle down and concentrate firmly around kedilei.


    However, if they fail, the people who are already in a state of anxiety will become scattered, and it will be difficult to form a cohesive force, and many of kedilai''s plans will not be implemented.


    Time goes by little.


    Towards noon, he felt a little hungry.


    He didn''t eat.


    Leaning by the bed, looking out the window.


    "Boom!"


    All of a sudden, there were some dark clouds and thunder in the clear sky. This kind of thunder makes the world seem to be windy.


    Originally, the breeze came and it was very hot.


    But now the wind, a little more cool.


    "Tick! Tick and tick


    Drop by drop of rain drops from the air, in the blink of an eye, it became a pouring rain, the ground is splashed with dust, a strong smell of choking nose, spread in the breath.


    The heavy rain poured down, and a moment later, it dissipated the smell of smoke and dust.


    Kedilai looked at the raindrops outside, but his face was a little lost.


    In the dark eyes, more.


    His father died in the hands of Zhang Xiu.


    He can''t get revenge.


    Now, we can only curl up to survive, and even dare not go out aboveboard, so the situation is very difficult. This is the reason why when he is alone, his mood will drop to the bottom.


    "Dong! Dong


    There was a knock on the door, which suddenly sounded outside the room.


    "Who!"


    Kedley, watch out.


    "Young master, it''s me."


    Outside the room, there was a loud voice again, which was followed by kedilai himself. After hearing this, kedilei relaxed his vigilance and said, "come in!"


    With a creak, the door was pushed open.


    Follow me in.


    After a respectful salute, Qin Sui said, "young master, the man we arranged to assassinate emperor Xu failed. There was someone protecting him secretly. At that time, the assassins had already killed the guards around emperor Xu. I saw that we were about to win, but suddenly someone came out of the dark, blocked the assassins and killed our assassins. "


    "Son of a bitch!"


    When kedley heard that, he was very angry.


    Victory is in sight. Someone suddenly disrupted the situation, so that the assassination failed.


    It made kedley very angry.


    Kedilei asked: "is the person killed secretly Zhang Xiu''s person, or by chance?"


    "It must be Zhang Xiu, because he has black hair and yellow skin. He seems to know emperor Xu. In particular, this man''s swordsmanship is extremely exquisite. There is no such person in Peshawar. It must be Zhang Xiu. "


    After hearing this, kedilei swung his fist on the table in front of him. He looked angry and said, "the assassination of Dixu failed. Next, he waited for the news of the assassination of sadika, hoping to win this time."


    For Andy, it''s his only chance.


    If we fail again, the consequences will be unimaginable.


    It will defeat his plan.


    "Don''t worry, young master, the assassin who went to assassinate sadika this time is the assassin of our family, not the other family. This assassination is sure to succeed. Sadika will die in this case. But now it''s raining heavily, and I''m sure we haven''t moved yet. Let''s wait for the news. "


    "Wait!"


    Kedley nodded.


    He waved his hand, turned around and stepped back.He sat alone in the room, looking out at the falling rain, feeling a little depressed. The failure of the line of assassinating emperor Xu means that his plan has already failed in half.


    The next plan is crucial.


    Sadika is still in her own office.


    He is busy with government affairs.


    Zhang Xiu gave him the task of inspecting local officials, investigating which officials committed crimes and which officials committed crimes. For sadika, it''s a matter of offending others, even leading him to become the target of everyone''s shouting in officialdom. However, sadika didn''t refuse and still enjoyed it.


    Because he has something to do.


    Moreover, he was appointed by Zhang Xiu.


    In this way, although the family was weakened and lost its former slaves and land resources, sadika was still an official and had corresponding privileges.


    This is the right of officials.


    Officials, born with special rights, are not aristocrats.


    Sadika dealt with all kinds of government affairs and finally took out a volume of books. Because what is recorded in this volume is what an official committed. His name is kutak, the mayor of Qingshui Town, west of Peshawar.


    This Qingshui town is a big one.


    The population is over 10000.


    Such a town, especially close to Peshawar City, has a very favorable geographical location. Therefore, Qingshui town is not Qingshui Town, on the contrary, it is quite rich. Especially in Qingshui Town, there are minerals such as coal, which makes the town very rich.


    There are a lot of peddlers coming and going.


    Although sadi cartoon has investigated the following people and learned about the situation of Qingshui town. However, sadika is not very clear about the specific situation of Qingshui town. He has to find out all the information except the mayor of Qingshui town. Only in this way can he make sure that he can have something to say in front of Zhang xiuye.


    It''s not like asking three questions.


    This is sadika''s way of being an official.


    "Somebody


    Sadika said.


    Immediately, there were attendants to enter, sadika said: "prepare the carriage, I want to go to Qingshui town."


    "Yes


    The attendant answered with a nod.


    But the servant said, "Sir, it rained heavily. Although this heavy rain comes and goes quickly, the road leading to Qingshui town will inevitably be muddy. Under such circumstances, do we really want to go? "


    "To go!"


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "don''t say it''s raining, even if it''s raining, you have to go. When it comes to dealing with government affairs, we must go all out to deal with it. It''s your Majesty''s entrustment. You can''t make fun of it. "


    "Yes


    The attendant was ordered to turn around and arrange.


    Sadika also put away the books, sorted out the books on the desk, and then changed his ordinary clothes to go out. After all, he went out to learn about Qingshui Town, so he couldn''t dress luxuriously.


    Otherwise, it is easy to scare the snake.


    Sadika put on her clothes and set out.

 Chapter 1410

    Today, sadika went out in the afternoon. At this time, because of the rain, although there is still a round of sun hanging in the sky, the sun is not so hot and the heat has dissipated a lot. Now, although it is in July, the weather is not very hot. It has begun to cool down day by day.


    So the temperature is not particularly hot.


    Suitable for travel.


    Sadika, dressed in ordinary clothes, went out with two escorts.


    Today, sadika, like Dixu, has a guard around him even when he goes out. After all, today, sadika needs someone to protect her.


    As soon as sadika walked out of the gate of the government office and came to the street, he saw a common man rushing out of the street, shouting, "please make the decision for the villain, my Lord!"


    He knelt down, knocked his head on the ground and cried out.


    The voice was shrill.


    For a moment, on the street outside the government office, the people who came and went stopped and watched from a short distance. Such a situation has made many people come and go together, and immediately surrounded the surrounding area, and surrounded the place.


    Sadika looked around, her eyes narrowed, her eyes more alert.


    He motioned to the two guards beside him.


    For a resourceful person like sadika, this sudden situation makes him very alert. Especially with so many people around, there is too much room for operation. In case anyone who is not open-minded wants to assassinate him, it is not easy for him to be on guard. He even has doubts about the people in front of him, sadika.


    So sadika is very cautious.


    This is the instinct of an old fox.


    Sadika looked around, and her eyes fell on the kneeling man in front of her. This is a middle-aged man in his early 40s. His clothes are shabby, his hands are thick, his knuckles are all over the window, and his face is full of wrinkles. He is very old.


    Sadika said in a deep voice: "you are kneeling outside my official office. Let''s talk about your grievances. If you are subordinate to my official duty, I will give you justice. If it''s not the duty of my official, then I can''t help you. "


    "Yes, adults can."


    At this time, the people were still kneeling. He looked up at sadika, looking forward to it, and said, "I heard that Lord sadika, you have punished and killed a lot of officials who committed crimes. The villain wants to report. The governor of the area where the villain lives has committed crimes, abducted women and skimmed money. Moreover, he says that he is not afraid of punishment... "


    The people spoke.


    At this time, sadika listened to the people, but he was still on guard.


    Just then, a man rushed out.


    "Kill


    A low drink.


    Inside the crowd, less than ten steps away from sadika, a short, tough young man with a dagger in his hand stabbed sadika with his sword.


    In his mouth, he was still shouting sadika''s words of life, and what sadika''s words of betraying Kushan. However, his words have not been spoken, and he is close to sadika.


    The guard who has been on guard, come forward immediately.


    The two guards crossed and stood in the way, blocking the assassin''s way forward.


    "Ding! Ding! "


    The assassin''s dagger collided with the blades of two guards.


    The assassin failed for a while.


    The two guards also held the assassin firmly, never showing any flaws, and always blocked him.


    Sadika is also relaxed at this moment. Because in the current situation, if the assassin is exposed, he will be safe and will not be threatened.


    The assassin, the common people kneeling on the ground, had a sneer on his lips. Suddenly, he jumped up, took a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed sadika.


    At this moment, sadika''s eyes widened.


    Double assassination.


    He was double assassinated.


    Previously, sadika''s heart, in fact, doubted whether the people in front of him had the suspicion of assassination, so sadika''s heart has been vigilant. But in the twinkling of an eye, an assassin was killed from the crowd, and sadika felt exposed at this moment, which should not be dangerous, so his inner vigilance to the people was reduced a lot.


    As a result, the people suddenly burst into trouble, and sadika was a little panicked and even more at a loss.


    Sadika staggered back, and he stumbled under his feet. This fall, although sadika body some pain, but somehow, sadika has not been seriously injured, but also avoided the people stabbed to a sword.


    But the next moment, the assassin dressed up as the common people, once again.


    It''s coming straight to sadika.


    Sadika''s two bodyguards are now restrained and have no time to escape. Although they are good at martial arts, the assassin is not so simple that the two guards can only fight together. If they are alone, they can''t stop the fierce assassin.So sadika is in crisis.


    Sadika was not reconciled.


    This is outside the office.


    There are soldiers in it.


    Once the conflict is discovered, the soldiers inside will rush out. By then, his safety will be guaranteed. So sadika was not willing to be killed, and he gritted his teeth again and stood back with his hands on the ground, intending to avoid the assassination.


    "It''s too late to dodge now!"


    The assassin disguised as the common people grinned and showed a ferocious look.


    He is very confident.


    Because this time, he was the main assassin, and the other assassin assisted him. It''s just that he can''t be exposed at first, and he wants to reduce sadika''s vigilance.


    Sure enough, he''s going to make it.


    The assassin continued to move forward, with a look of expectation in his eyes. Because if he succeeds this time, he will get a lot of benefits and wealth. This is a great opportunity.


    Things are about to succeed.


    The assassin went on, not two steps ahead of sadika. At this time, the assassin has reached out his hand, and the dagger stabs sadika''s heart quickly. Sadika can''t avoid it, it''s hard to avoid it, and his eyes are extremely anxious. But at this time, sadika''s eyes widened, and a smile appeared on her face.


    He saw hope.


    Because Shia appeared behind the assassin.


    Sadika knows Shia. He''s a great swordsman. It''s no exaggeration to call him a master of swordsmanship. If Shia appears, his safety will be fine.


    The assassin was still moving forward. When he thought he was about to succeed, suddenly, the assassin, who was disguised as the common people, was staring at him. His body, which had been rushing forward, stopped suddenly because of the severe pain in his heart.


    When he looked down, he saw his heart was stabbed by a sword tip. Drop by drop of blood flowed from the sword tip. As soon as the sword was drawn out, the assassin''s body trembled and fell to the ground.


    Shi a sword solved one person, the footstep repeatedly steps, turns to look at another person. The sword in his hand was handed out again. The speed of this sword is very fast, even if the assassin wants to avoid, but the tip of the sword is still impartial, stabbing each other''s heart.


    When the sword was drawn out, the assassin vomited blood and fell to the ground.


    Two assassins were killed face to face in front of Shia.


    Shia Huan looked around and waved: "it''s all scattered. It''s just someone who intends to assassinate Lord sadika."


    With Shi A''s wave, the surrounding people retreated.


    Shia ordered the bodyguard sadika to drag the two bodies to the yamen, and sadika also followed Shia and returned to the Yamen temporarily. At this time, Shia said, "call the doctor immediately, bandage the wounds of the two men, and give them quick treatment."


    Sadika was surprised and said, "Lord Shia, these two people have been through your heart, aren''t they already dead?"


    "No!"


    Shia shook his head and said, "the point of the sword I stabbed was slanted. In this way, I never stabbed the heart. It''s just for a short time. It makes them self-contained and faint. Now bandage treatment, naturally no problem


    Sadika thought about it, understood it, and said, "Lord Shia left them, but killed them in front of all the people to confuse the people in the dark. So that after the results of the review, we can take action. "


    "That''s what I mean!"


    With a smile on his face, Shi''a said, "if it wasn''t for the people who assassinated you behind the scenes, I wouldn''t have gone through so much trouble. These assassins have long been dead. "


    Sadika said: "it''s still Mr. Shi a who is considerate. In that case, I won''t go to Qingshui town for the time being. I''ll accompany Mr. Shi a to deal with the current affairs."


    "Yes," said Shia


    Not long after, the doctor had entered and began to treat the two assassins and bandage the wound.

 Chapter 1411

    After the doctor''s diagnosis and treatment, the two assassins have recovered in a short time. But there are still injuries on the two people, and there are doubts on their faces. They are dead. How can they live again.


    They looked at each other and looked at each other.


    For a while, they were confused.


    I don''t understand how I survived after I was killed.


    Shi''a looks at the living people. With a wave of his hand, someone goes down with a younger assassin, leaving only the assassin disguised as the common people. He looked at the man like electricity, and said in a deep voice, "what''s your name, who ordered you, why do you want to assassinate Lord sadika?"


    The assassin snorted, but turned his head and did not speak at all.


    He didn''t want to hire.


    Shi a sees this, the corner of the mouth starts to put on a sneer, light way: "you are in front of my official, still plan to mouth hard.". Good. You''re good. I just like someone with a hard tongue like you. It''s interesting to be put on trial. I forgot to tell you that what I am responsible for is to bring the case to trial. You have given me an opportunity to go back to my old business. "


    The assassin drew from the corner of his mouth, and a touch of fear passed in his eyes.


    He''s an assassin.


    But not the real dead.


    Seeing that the assassin still didn''t speak, Shi a continued: "come on, break his ten fingers. I''d like to see how tough he is. First break the fingers, then soak them in salt water, and finally pull out the fingernails one by one. Hum, I have so many means. Take your time and don''t worry. "


    Hiss!


    When the assassin heard this, he took a cool breath.


    His face was full of fear.


    I was completely scared.


    Once the fingers are broken, it''s incomparable pain. Even if the fingers are broken and soaked in salt water, it''s definitely more painful.


    At the thought of such pain, the assassin felt his scalp numb and his head was about to explode. He didn''t dare to be brave any more and said, "I''m willing to confess."


    Shi a smile on his face, said: "very good, know current affairs for the hero, you are willing to cooperate, this is very good. Ordinary people have a little idea. Those who think they are a little smart will grit their teeth first to see if they can resist the trial. "


    "But the problem is, almost most people can''t carry it."


    "The final result is that he not only suffered from criminal law, but also was seriously injured, and finally had to say the reason. So much so that I can''t hide the secret when I''m hurt. "


    "You''re fine. You''re not gritting your teeth."


    Shi a said: "actually, I hope you can be tough and hold on. In this way, I will be able to experience the pleasure of the trial. What a pity, what a pity! "


    The assassin stares at Shi''a with frightened eyes.


    Because he felt that Shi''a in front of him seemed to be a pervert. It was terrible.


    Assassin''s heart has already counseled, dare not fight Shi ah, he knelt on the ground, regardless of the body''s injury, said in a loud voice: "I move, I''m willing to admit anything."


    Shia''s mouth was filled with a faint smile, and he said: "tell me, what''s your name, why did you assassinate sadika, and who ordered you."


    The assassin said, "my name is Su Puyan. I''m an assassin from Peshawar. The reason why he wanted to assassinate sadika was because he was ordered by young master kedilei. "


    Shia said: "who is kedilei?"


    The assassin replied, "the son of mahasaro, the Lord of the city of Lange, has been studying in Peshawar. After the killing of mahasaro, kedire remained in Peshawar. "


    "And because kedirai was loyal to amuni, the great prince of Kushan, he had been hiding his tracks since Indra came to power. Today, kedilai has gathered some nobles to prepare to assassinate tishu and sadika and disrupt the situation in Peshawar. "


    "That''s all the situation."


    The assassin solemnly said, "my Lord, every word I said is true, not false."


    He was afraid.


    I''m afraid I''ll be dealt with by Shia.


    If he was dealt with by Shi a, it would be miserable. He could not bear such torture.


    Shia said in a deep voice: "you and another assassin, join hands to kill. Since you have come together, you must know the same news. So after you are put on trial, I will bring another person on trial. If your words are false, then you must know the consequences. "


    The assassin said, "I know, I know."


    He nodded busily.


    He can guarantee that what he said is true and never false.


    Shia thought for a moment, and then said, "since you are appointed by kedilei, do you know kedilei''s living place and other people who are involved in the assassination of Dixu and sadika?"


    "I know, and I know where Cradley lives."


    Simple and strict, he did not dare to refuse, nor dare to lie, and spoke busily. He promised: "today, kedilei lives in the inn, and I know the detailed location, which is in Tongfu inn.""Good, you''re good!"


    Shi a didn''t ask any more questions, so he ordered people to take the simple and strict down and bring another assassin up for trial. For Shi Alai, it''s not difficult to bring up such an assassin. It''s very easy for him to tell the truth.


    Two assassins, it''s the same.


    There was no difference.


    With such a premise, Shi a was sure that this time he would get the right news.


    Sadika looked at Shia with an expectant look in his eyes and said, "Shia, do you think we should take action immediately to arrest kedilei, or what should we do?"


    Shia shook his head and said, "it''s easy to scare the snake in broad daylight. We shouldn''t act rashly. In any case, when I dealt with the assassins, I killed two people in front of all the people. So even if there were some people in the crowd who were watching, he would only think that the plan had failed, and he didn''t leak the news. "


    "So, he''s still in Tongfu inn."


    "We don''t have to act rashly now. In the evening, when it''s dark and there''s no one on the street, it''s easy to move. At that time, we''ll go straight to Tongfu Inn and take kedilei down in one go. "


    Shia said in a deep voice: "this is the plan.


    sadi card, after listening and pondering, he was also very admired. He said: "what is said by Shi Ya, we are going out now. If we have Cyre''s Eyeliner outside, we will be found immediately. But when it gets dark, not only the movement of the army, but also the operations are more confidential. "


    "So it is


    Shia replied with a smile.


    Shi a has enough confidence in the current situation.


    Shi a didn''t report the news immediately, because he thought that in the current situation, he had to take kedilei first, and then escorted kedilei to meet Zhang Xiu.


    That''s what''s convincing.


    Sadika said in a deep voice, "well, I don''t have to go to Qingshui today. I''ll stay and cooperate with you for the time being to deal with the assassin''s affairs properly. "


    "No need!"


    Shi a shakes his head and says: "I will deal with the assassin''s affairs. What''s more, even if you meet an assassin, you will be suspicious if you shrink in the Yamen. Now, you can continue to go to Qingshui town and deal with what you have to deal with. But now, you need to take more guards to make sure you don''t get into trouble next time you meet an assassin. "


    Sadika said, "since Lord Shia says that, I''ll do my work. I''ll leave the assassin''s business to Lord Shia. I don''t care. "


    "Yes!"


    Shia nodded.


    He believed that the first wave of assassins had been dealt with, and that no one could assassinate sadika in a short time. So we only need sadika''s side and escort protection, and there will be no problem for the time being.


    "Goodbye!"


    Sadika got up and left.


    He left with the people and headed for Qingshui town. Now, he still has many things to do, especially when it comes to the mayor of Qingshui town. This is not a trivial matter. We need to find out all the information.


    Shia didn''t care about sadika.


    Now all his thoughts are on the matter of taking kedilei. As long as kedilei is won, all the nobles hidden behind the scenes will be caught and none of them will survive.


    As time goes by, the sun sets.


    As night falls, the city of Peshawar has returned to tranquility, and there are no pedestrians on the streets. After all, the curfew has been implemented in Peshawar today, and it is impossible for people to reappear. Shi a is to take a team of royal guards, under the leadership of Su Puyan, to the Tongfu inn where kedilei is.

 Chapter 1412

    At night, Peshawar was in darkness.


    It''s all quiet.


    He sat by the bed, staring out of the window, dazed. It was already night, but he didn''t feel sleepy at all, because there were too many knots in his heart.


    Originally, during the day, the news that the assassination of emperor Xu failed already put great pressure on kedilei''s heart. When the news came back that sadika''s assassination had failed and the assassin had been killed on the spot, kedilei was in a daze.


    The plan failed.


    His plan has been a failure.


    Kedilei regards this action plan as a turning over battle. But up to now, his plan completely failed. In the eyes of all nobles, kedilei is now a loser.


    He used to be the son of mahasaro, and he had a certain appeal and influence. But now, his influence and appeal are greatly affected.


    The reason is simple. He''s a failure.


    "Dong! Dong


    Knock on the door, came from outside the room, but it was kedilei''s close with: "childe, it''s me!"


    "Come in," said kedley


    The door was pushed open with a creak. He came in and bowed to kedilei. He said in a deep voice: "young master, the person who arranged to go out has sent back the news. You want to invite them to get together again to discuss business, but without exception, they all shirk that they have no time and can''t keep the appointment for the time being. "


    Despite the failure of the plan, kedley still had hope in his heart. He wanted to gather all the people together, and then prepare to deal with sadika and Dishu again. Unfortunately, this time, the rest of the nobles didn''t buy it.


    Kedley clenched his fist and punched the table.


    His face was full of anger.


    The heart is more unwilling.


    With a solemn look on his face, he said in a deep voice, "young master, what shall we do now?"


    "Now, we''re going to keep a low profile for a while. They are not willing to gather again, in fact, because they have not suffered enough. If these people are not hit, they will not know unity. "


    After a pause, kedilai said: "if we want these people to unite again, we have to let them be oppressed again, or even have no living space, so that they can feel the pain and know that they have no choice. Therefore, you should arrange to disclose the information about the Diebu to the government so that the government can investigate and deal with the Diebu. With the lesson of Dibu, the rest of the nobility will know that hiding is useless. "


    After hearing this, Qin Sui was a little surprised and said, "young master, do you want to betray Dibu?"


    "It''s not about selling, it''s about making them more united," he said in a deep voice, biting his teeth. Only when all people unite can there be cohesion. It''s a good choice for Bailey to lose a small Dibu in exchange for everyone''s cohesion. "


    "I see," he said


    "Good, good, good!"


    Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside the room.


    Boom!!


    Then, a violent crash came out, and the door of the room was kicked to the ground. With the smoke dispersed, Shi a with a team of royal guards, into the door.


    Shia looked at kedilei and said with a smile: "it''s worthy of being the son of mahasaro. It''s a set of tricks. Before that, you were united with nobles. Now, in order to gather strength, you have to sell some people in a twinkling of an eye. You''re really good at this. If I didn''t know your news in advance, I''m afraid your plan will really succeed. "


    Kedley''s cheek twitched.


    His face was full of panic.


    Because he looked around, he now has no way back, how can not escape.


    "My Lord, I''m afraid you misunderstood something," he said


    "Misunderstanding?"


    Shia said in a deep voice: "what you said just now is nonsense. If you don''t have such words, I''m afraid you really want to deny it, and you''re going to die. Unfortunately, I heard everything clearly. Besides, there are the assassins you sent to assassinate sadika. Both assassins have confessed your identity. If it had not been for their confession, do you think we could have found you? "


    After hearing this, kedilei raised his eyebrows and said with an incredible look on his face: "the two of them have not been killed. How can they confess?"


    Shi ashen said in a voice: "how can I let them die. On the surface, they were stabbed to death, but in fact, they just passed out. "


    "Hoo


    Kedley took a long breath.


    His face was full of helplessness.


    Lost!


    He lost!


    If it wasn''t for the news that two assassins had been killed, kedley wouldn''t have stayed in the room all the time. Just because he was sure that the assassin was dead and the line was broken, his whereabouts would not be exposed, so he stayed.


    Unexpectedly, it was suspended animation.


    Kedilei knew very well that he had no room to argue now. He said in a deep voice, "I planned it, so what. You Daqin took my Lan City and killed my father. I can''t kill Zhang Xiu. I have to deal with sadika and Dixu. Unfortunately, neither of them died. Hateful, I hate itShia said: "with your plan, you are too weak. Your majesty is aware of it when you spread rumors and urge public opinion to deal with sadika and tishu. If you had not spread rumors that Dixu and sadika were traitors, your Majesty would not have sent someone to protect them. You are responsible for that. "


    When kedilei heard this, he was struck by lightning.


    The reason why he spread the news about sadika and tishu was to target them. But did not expect, his action unexpectedly startles the snake, causes Zhang Xiu to make the preparation ahead of time.


    It''s all his own destruction.


    "Take it!"


    As soon as Shia''s sleeve was brushed, someone came forward and directly detained kedilei and his relatives. Shi''a quietly takes people back to sadika''s office and brings kedilei to trial overnight.


    For kedilei, he has been taken and knows that he has no way out. In his heart, he resented the ruthlessness of the families in Peshawar, so he didn''t need the trial of Shia at all. Kedilei had already explained all the information, and confessed all the details of the nobility and the contact places.


    Shi a effortlessly, get all the news, immediately dispatch the royal guards action, all hurry to catch people. With the deployment of the royal guards one by one, the city of Peshawar was restless and arresting people everywhere.


    So much so that Peshawar was a mess.


    Close to Yinshi, close to Maoshi, all the royal guards sent out will return.


    Dibu and the rest of the families were all arrested. Although these people did not take part in the assassination of tishu and sadika, they took part in the plot and had to be dealt with.


    However, Shi a did not dare to make a decision about how to deal with it.


    Take all of them into custody. After daybreak, Shia gets up and leaves sadika''s office to go to the imperial city. When he entered the palace and saw Zhang Xiu, he quickly reported the situation of kedilei and others.


    Finally, Shia said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, these people conspired to assassinate sadika and Dixu. Now all of them are brought to justice. What should we do with these nobles? "

 Chapter 1413

    Zhang Xiu''s eyes were sharp, and said: "since these people are plotting against sadika and Dixu, none of them can stay, but all of them will be killed. What''s more, they should be slaughtered for three days to let everyone know the fate of these nobles. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "their crimes must be publicized in place. Let the common people of Kushan know that these nobles intend to overthrow everything they enjoy now. This time, it''s an opportunity to stir up people''s emotions. "


    "I understand


    Shi Ying bowed down.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand, and Shi a turned back to deal with the affairs of Ke Dilei and others.


    When the bodies of these people were hanging outside the South Gate of Peshawar City, and all their crimes were made public, all the surviving nobles in Peshawar city were silent and scared.


    This time, more than 20 nobles were disposed of. Although they have escaped, they were once aristocrats. Even if they live in peace today, they are easy to be targeted.


    Once upon a time, the nobility was superior.


    Once upon a time, nobility was unattainable.


    Now, they have lost all this, even because they were once aristocrats, they will be looked down upon. Even many times, it will be targeted.


    So every nobleman did things carefully.


    I dare not do things again.


    As for the ordinary people in Peshawar City, they are not easy to enjoy their present status, have equal opportunities to do things, and will not be bullied. They are vested interests and are not willing to go back to the past.


    So when they learned that there were rebels in Peshawar, and even those who wanted to subvert all this, the people were angry and took their bodies to vent their anger. In three days, these bodies had already been beyond recognition.


    After this incident, the people had a cognition of their own situation.


    They have to keep what they are now.


    So these people are more determined to stand on the side of Zhang Xiu. As time goes by, July goes by and August comes. At this time, the weather has turned cold.


    The governance of Peshawar has become more and more successful.


    At this time, liezhanqi, the leader of the city of Kabul, had come from the city of Kabul to the city of Peshawar. After all, he was once in charge of the local government, so he had rich experience. In a short time, everything in Peshawar was on the right track.


    At this time, the busy affairs of sadika and TISU were also put on hold.


    After all, they''re both done.


    Officials in 10 towns, including Qingshui town around Peshawar City, were all dealt with and replaced. The replacement of officials replaced the officials who were honest and upright, making the administration of officials a new one.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu arranged for people to send people to call Dixu and sadika to the imperial city.


    Sadika and Dixu stand in front of Zhang Xiu and bow.


    Now, they have nothing to do.


    After all, before they were in charge of the affairs, they were temporarily in charge, not really in Peshawar. Once things are done, liezhanqi will be responsible for all things in Peshawar.


    The two people who were left vacant were worried.


    Because neither tishu nor sadika wanted to be so mediocre and idle.


    Now, they are finally summoned by Zhang Xiu.


    There is a look of expectation on both faces, because they expect themselves to achieve something.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "before you finished what you were doing, you finished the handover with lie Zhanqi. What you didn''t do immediately was not to idle you or beat you, but to give you a chance to have a rest. You''ve been very busy and hard at this time, so let''s take it easy. "


    "Thank you


    Sadika quickly thanks.


    His heart was also excited at this time, because Zhang Xiu''s words meant that he had the opportunity to become an official.


    There''s something to do again.


    Emperor Xu also said with thanks: "Your Majesty, I''m very busy and full. So I don''t feel tired at all. To be loyal to your majesty, you don''t need to think about the affairs of being unfaithful or restricted, just need to do things in a down-to-earth way. I enjoy such a thing. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile, "that''s good."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "now, I have another thing to take care of for you two."


    Di Xu and sadika said at the same time, "Your Majesty, please show me."


    Zhang Xiu said: "there are more than 100000 savage tribes mentioned by sadika before. This tribe has such a large population that it has never been disposed of. It''s a pity that these people will stay in the mountains all the time. "


    Zhang Xiu continued: "now, I am ready to deal with this matter. You two are responsible for this. Sadika is more aware of the situation, so sadika is the main one, and the emperor needs to help to deal with this matter. ""Yes, I do!"


    Sadika answered immediately.


    His face is full of smile, because now, finally, there is something to do. What''s more, what he wants to do is what he once mentioned. As long as more than 100000 people are moved out, it must be a great achievement.


    Although Dixu was reluctant to assist sadika, since Zhang Xiu gave the order, Dixu had no choice but to follow it.


    The emperor must take the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, we need to move these people out of the mountains. I''m afraid it will be difficult to accomplish without the army. This matter needs the assistance of the army. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I give you the army, let Zhao Yun under the command of the army, listen to your dispatch."


    "Thank you


    The emperor must bow to thank him.


    With the army led by Zhao Yun, it will not be very difficult to win this war.


    Sadika was aware of the specific situation. He said: "Your Majesty, the troops under Zhao Yun''s command only need to dispatch 30000 troops, which is enough. Thirty thousand people are enough to win the war. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "OK, I''ll give you 30000 people."


    "Thank you


    Sadika quickly thanks, and her heart is happy. With 30000 Qin troops, it is enough to solve the savages in the mountains.


    Emperor must turn his eyes and think quickly. Because in today''s situation, if we don''t use these 30000 people, we can solve the problem of savages without much effort, and then he has made greater contributions.


    There was a flash of light in his mind, which was already a trick.


    Emperor must say: "Your Majesty, I have a stratagem. Maybe through this stratagem, I can subdue the soldiers without fighting, and let all the savages in the mountains submit to the Qin Dynasty."


    Zhang Xiu said, "what''s your plan?"


    Emperor Xu replied: "since they are savages, even if they have hundreds of thousands of people, they must be poor in material and life. Under such a premise, we can arrange envoys to lobby them to leave the mountains and live in Peshawar. "


    "This time, I''m willing to go to the mountains as an envoy."


    "With your Majesty''s permission."


    There was a look of wisdom in emperor Xu''s eyes, because he was not willing to get all his merits by sadika.


    So, put forward such a strategy.


    As a wise man, Zhang Xiu knew the danger of emperor Xu''s plan. He said in a deep voice: "emperor Xu, you should know that the savage tribe in the mountain has not been civilized. Maybe you have been killed by them before you speak. You have to think about it, Emperor. There is a great danger in it. "


    The emperor had to throw the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I know the risks, but compared with dispatching troops to fight the rebellion, it would be very worthwhile to deal with the matter properly without a single soldier."


    "Well, I''m sure."


    Zhang xiudao: "you need what, but say no harm, I approve all."


    "Thank you


    Di Xu glanced at sadika, and there was a trace of color in his eyes. Zhang Xiu, even in front of him, must be able to get credit.


    Sadika frowned slightly.


    He didn''t expect that Dixu would intercept him in the air and try to get ahead of him to solve the problems of the savage tribe.

 Chapter 1414

    After the discussion, sadika and Emperor must go out of the imperial city together.


    Standing at the gate of the palace city, sadika looked at Dixu with a sharp look in his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Dixu, what do you mean? It''s clear that your majesty has approved 30000 troops, led by me, and you are among them, but why do you want to destroy them? "


    Emperor Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said, "sadika, you want to perform meritorious service in front of your majesty, and I also want to perform meritorious service in front of your majesty. If you don''t like it, you can offer yourself and go there yourself! "


    Sadika gritted his teeth and said, "well, your emperor needs to send an envoy himself. But if you lose, it''s you. As long as I lead the troops, I will be able to wipe out this savage tribe. You can''t finish the task if you go alone. "


    Emperor must say: "who knows?"


    There was a faint smile in his mouth, because for emperor Xu, he had enough confidence.


    With his ability, enough to lobby the other side.


    Sadika took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. He brushed his big sleeve and said, "emperor, we''ll see. I hope you can succeed in your mission. Once you fail this time, there will be a good play to watch. If you succeed, it won''t have much influence on me, but if you fail, you should know the consequences. "


    Emperor must say: "I will only succeed, will not fail."


    "I''ll see," sadika said


    With that, sadika boarded the carriage and set out to return home. Emperor Xu also took the carriage and went back to his home to prepare. After he told his family, he worked out some materials he needed and took a carriage to take them away.


    This time, someone led the way.


    After all, sadika has said it.


    The emperor had to rush all the way, because the speed was faster. However, the closer to the location of the savage tribe, the more difficult the road is, because this road needs to go through the mountains and forests, and needs to climb up the slope, which is very inconvenient.


    The road is slightly better when approaching the savage tribe.


    It''s easy to get on the road.


    When Emperor Xu stood on the top of the mountain and looked down to the low-lying area, he saw the surrounding villages under the hillside. These villages are very primitive, they are all ordinary thatched houses, and Emperor Xu also saw some common people, all of them are bare upper body, lower body or wrapped with cloth, or covered with coarse cloth.


    At first glance, these places are very poor.


    Emperor must take a deep breath, then with two pro with, stride down. Both of them carry backpacks, because there are some resources in them that can be used by Emperor Xu.


    The emperor had to show up with people and was soon discovered.


    Some labourers at the foot of the mountain surrounded the emperor directly. The savage tribe in the mountains, though the place is simple, has its own leaders. They are very exclusive and do not allow outsiders to enter. As soon as emperor Xu appears, they are surrounded.


    "Who are you and what are you doing in the mountains?"


    He is a strong man with sharp eyes and strong speech. Especially the others clenched their fists and had a big disagreement, so they had to fight and win the emperor''s plan.


    The emperor had to face the threat and look as usual.


    He is not under any threat.


    In particular, such a scene is even more simple and easy for people like emperor Xu. With a bright smile on his face, Emperor Xu said slowly, "please inform your leaders that emperor Xu, the envoy of the Qin Dynasty, has come to see you and has something important to discuss."


    The strong man snorted: "follow me!"


    "Thank you very much."


    Emperor Xu had a smile on his face. Even though his face was unshakable, his heart was relieved. Because as long as the other party takes him to visit, it means that he has a chance to succeed.


    The strong man took emperor Xu to the tribe. Rao was so. He still let his own people keep emperor Xu in custody, so that emperor Xu would not have any chance to leave.


    The emperor must smile.


    As far as he is concerned, since he has come, he will not run away, because once he runs away, his mission will also fail. Such a thing will never be done by Emperor Xu.


    On the way, I met many people.


    When these people heard that there were visitors from outside, many of them had a curious look on their faces and looked at emperor Xu carefully. Then they went to the camp together.


    So that along the way, more and more people.


    In a short time, hundreds of people gathered, which was quite spectacular.


    Emperor must see the people behind him and think about it. Now, as soon as he appears, he attracts so many people. It can be seen that these people in the mountains have never seen outsiders. If these people often see outsiders, they will not be so curious and concerned.


    About two quarters of an hour later, the group arrived at the site where the tribe was stationed.


    There are many thatched cottages in Zhou.


    Countless people gathered here.


    Strong man with a group of people, came to a thatched cottage outside. This thatched cottage, surrounded by a fence outside, is quite wide inside, but it looks no different from the rest of the houses.At this moment, on the roof of the thatched cottage, a middle-aged man more than 40 years old was repairing the roof. Because some thatch is blown away, the house is easy to leak rain.


    This man, his name is Nadie.


    He was the leader of the whole tribe, but Nadi didn''t enjoy any special treatment, no one to wait on him, didn''t live in a mansion, and didn''t enjoy any delicacies.


    Like the people in the tribe, he had to work in the mountains and repair his own houses. His only difference is that something big happened in the tribe, and Nadai called the tribe together to discuss it.


    There was no caste system in this tribe.


    Everyone is the same.


    They''re all ordinary people.


    "Lord nadey, there is a stranger from the mountain. I want to see you."


    The strong man stood at the door. He saw Nadie on the roof and cried out.


    Nadey was repairing the house on the roof. When he heard the sound, he immediately stopped, looked at the door and said, "bring people in. I''ll be right down."


    "Good!"


    The strong man was ordered to bring people in.


    At this time, Emperor Xu was thinking about the scene in his heart. The leaders of the ten thousand tribes can''t even see what they are doing in the thatched cottage.


    Such a situation is surprising.


    However, from this incident alone, we can see many problems. It can help the emperor to have a clear attitude towards Nader. When the emperor has to face Nader, there will be no trouble.


    This is the so-called observation.


    As soon as we arrive, we have to find out the situation so as not to lose our sense of propriety.


    Emperor Xu entered the courtyard and sat down at a stone table. In a short time, Nadie had already come down. Nader Yi''s eyes swept over the yard, only to see that hundreds of people gathered outside the yard, all of which were curious about why emperor Xu came.


    Nadie is always fair and impartial in his work, so Nadie said, "folks, come in and listen in the yard."


    As soon as the words came out, a person rushed in.


    These bare arms, the lower part of the body covered with animal skin clothes, or linen clothes, all stood in a swarm, their faces filled with joy.


    They are looking forward to it.


    Especially when they look at the emperor''s beard, their eyes are like looking at aliens.


    All of them were surprised.


    Especially when Emperor Xu came here this time, his clothes were very gorgeous. They were made of top-grade silk and satin. They were smooth and colorful, which was unique in the whole tribe.


    Nadie looked around and said, "silence!"


    As nade opened his mouth, everyone''s faces quieted down, and a pair of eyes fell on nade. These wild people in the mountains have great respect for nade, so they all obey nade''s arrangement.


    Nader Yi then looked at emperor Xu and said, "you are from outside the mountain. What''s the matter with you?"


    Emperor Xu said, "I''m the envoy of the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Xu. This time..."


    Half way through, Nadie interrupted: "I''m afraid you''re joking. Although I don''t go out, it doesn''t mean I don''t understand the situation outside. Outside is the Kushan Kingdom, and the emperor is the great emperor of Kushan. You call yourself the envoy of the Qin Dynasty, but I have never heard of the Qin Dynasty. "


    As soon as this is said, the people around us will start to talk about it. One by one, when they looked at the emperor''s beard, they changed from envy and inferiority to anger.


    One by one people, angry emperor must cheat.


    They think that emperor Xu cheated them, so they are very angry.

 Chapter 1415

    Emperor must face the expression of the common people, and there is no fear, on the contrary, Emperor must stroked the beard under his jaw, and then he began to laugh. The laughter became more and more loud, and there was more disdain in the laughter.


    This move surprised nade.


    What''s more, all the people were stunned. At first, they thought that emperor Xu should be afraid, and that emperor Xu should admit to counseling. After all, Emperor Xu lied about the envoys of the Qin Dynasty, but now it seems that something is wrong.


    Nadey said, "what are you laughing at?"


    After emperor Xu laughed, his eyes were sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "what I smile at is how long ago did you get the news from Mr. NaDY. How long has it been since you last got the news that you haven''t contacted the outside world? "


    Nad Ibn is a smart man.


    As soon as he heard what emperor Xu said, he knew that he was afraid of making mistakes.


    But nadey didn''t panic.


    Nadie said in a deep voice: "it''s only more than a year since I got the news from the outside world. Wei sudiva, the great emperor of Kushan, was powerful and powerful. His strength could not be defeated at all, especially in such a short period of time, and could not be replaced by Da Qin. What''s more, it''s unheard of and unheard of where and what Daqin is. "


    Emperor Xu, with a proud smile on his face, said in a deep voice, "that''s more than a year you mentioned. Oh, yes, less than a year to be exact. Your majesty has swept away the Kushan."


    "Vasudeva, has been killed."


    "The Kushan has been destroyed."


    "Today, the territory of Qin has become the great frost."


    "As for Daqin, it comes from the Far East and is the strongest country in the East. Daqin came from the East, captured the whole western regions, took many cities of Kushan, and now Peshawar is under his Majesty''s control. "


    "Kushan is dead."


    Emperor Xu''s eyes were sharp, and he continued: "this is the situation outside now. If you don''t believe me, you can arrange someone to go outside to inquire. I believe you will get the answer you need. "


    When Nader heard this, he looked at emperor Xu carefully, and his eyes were shocked.


    He did not expect that Daqin came from the East, and swept the western regions, won the whole Kushan. Nade knew about vesuviva. She was a very powerful person, but she didn''t expect vesuviva to die like this.


    It''s really beyond expectation.


    Nadie took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "come on, why are you here?"


    Since the other party has come, it must be intentional. Moreover, Nadie believes that since the other party dares to say so, the external environment must have changed.


    The emperor shook his robes and said in a deep voice, "I''m here to ask you to lead all the people in the mountains to live outside the mountains."


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Nade also laughed when he heard it.


    His slightly nodding face disappeared and was replaced by a sharp look. Because for Nadie, it''s a joke. In particular, the emperor had to laugh at him just now. Now he treats him in his own way.


    After half a sound, the laughter stopped.


    Emperor must look as usual, light way: "nade Yi sir, you smile again what?"


    Nader Yi said slowly: "Di Xu, do you know why there are more than 100000 people in this mountain? Are there so many people? The reason is very simple. It''s because of the caste system outside. "


    "The existence of the caste system has made countless Kushan people become slaves. They have been suppressed everywhere, targeted everywhere, and suffered countless unfair treatment."


    "That''s why they went into the mountains."


    "It''s true that they don''t eat well in the mountains, and their clothes are not decent enough, but no one bullies them, no one looks down on them, and they can live here carefree."


    NaDY''s tone, more sharp, continued: "now, you want them to go back outside, be squeezed again, be targeted again, are they willing?"


    "If you have such an idea, it''s just a pipe dream."


    "You don''t have to say anything. I can tell you clearly that all our villagers in the mountains and all our brothers in the mountains can''t go out of the mountains."


    "That''s my attitude."


    "And everyone''s attitude."


    "Even if you give us more and better conditions, even if you want to lure us, it''s impossible," he continued. I don''t want to kill people today. You can go. "


    "Ha ha ha..."


    Emperor must smell speech, smile again.


    In particular, the aspect of emperor Xu is extremely calm, without any panic or impatience. Such a scene, is very surprising, especially Nadie is also frowning.


    He found the old man hard to deal with.


    Emperor Xu is not simple.


    Nadie took a deep breath and asked, "what are you laughing at, Dixu?"Emperor Xu stroked his beard under his jaw, with a faint smile on his lips, and said: "the Kushan caste system you mentioned has been eliminated by Fei. In the territory of the Qin Dynasty, everyone is equal. There is no aristocratic slave, no aristocratic pauper. They are all equal. It is impossible for a man to be a slave all his life, or an aristocrat all his life. "


    "This is Daqin."


    "Not only that, all the nobles in Kushan were wiped out. All the money owned by the nobles has been turned in, all the land has been returned to the court, and all the slaves have been released. "


    "Everything is back to normal."


    The voice of emperor Xu became higher and higher, and there was a voice on the ground: "so your worries and concerns do not exist. Once upon a time, people who fled into the mountains could go back outside and live a normal life outside. "


    "Even, they can read, they can earn money by their own labor, they can put on clothes, and they can live outside openly."


    "This is normal life."


    "Their children and grandchildren don''t have to be in the mountains all the time."


    "Their descendants can see big cities and enjoy the good policies of Daqin. Once they have studied, they may still have the chance to become officials. They will no longer be people who can''t read big words all their lives. "


    The emperor had to throw the ground and said in a voice, "this is an opportunity for all the people in the mountains. Do you understand, Mr. nadaye?"


    After a pause, the emperor would not wait for Nadi to speak, but continued: "of course, as the person in charge of managing the people in this mountain, such as Mr. Nadi and others, after they come out of the mountain, the imperial court will give you the official position to manage the local people, so that you will not have nothing to do."


    Nadie frowned.


    The words of emperor Xu touched the root of the people in the mountains.


    The reason why the people in the mountains can gather more than 100000 people is that many of them have entered the mountains to avoid being slaves, which is why they have such a scale.


    Nader Yi thought about it in his heart, especially when he looked at the people around him. In their eyes, they already had a look of emotion, because if it wasn''t for special reasons, no one would like to stay in the mountains.


    After all, there are too few supplies in the mountains.


    Salt alone is extremely scarce.


    Nader Yi couldn''t refuse, but Nader Yi was more thoughtful. He said in a deep voice, "emperor Xu, you said that there were no nobles in the Qin Dynasty, and the caste system was abolished, which is naturally excellent."


    "The problem is that if a group of people want to leave the mountains, the hundreds of thousands of people will be a big town, not even a town, but a city. How can such a large number of people be properly resettled? "


    "If it can''t be properly settled, then it will become the biggest problem."


    "It has to be solved."


    Nadie said in a deep voice, "how can this be solved?"

 Chapter 1416

    The people around nade woke up one by one. Just now, they actually had the idea of going out of the mountain in their heart. They had been convinced by Emperor Xu''s words, and they were looking forward to it.


    But Nadie''s words were like pouring cold water on them.


    Everyone wakes up.


    They are now in the mountains. Although their life is a little bit more miserable, they work at sunrise and rest at sunset, but their life is also peaceful and peaceful, and their family lives peacefully. However, once they get out of the mountain, if they don''t get a proper settlement or even a proper one, they will drink from the north and drink from the West and have no place to settle down at all.


    These people look at emperor Xu and wait for his answer.


    If they don''t give a satisfactory explanation, they will not give up. They may even think that the emperor wants to deal with them by deceiving them on purpose.


    Emperor Xu is still not impatient.


    A pair of wisdom bead in hold of appearance, can''t see a bit of panic.


    Nader Yi couldn''t see emperor Xu dawdling. He snorted and urged, "emperor Xu, did you hear my question just now? Now that you have heard it clearly, let''s talk about how you want to solve it. If you don''t even have a solution, then you are deliberately deceiving us people in the mountains. "


    Emperor Xu said, "it is impossible to cheat. Your majesty has considered your problem for a long time."


    To tell you the truth, Zhang Xiu didn''t arrange it.


    Even when he was sent as an envoy, Zhang Xiu gave him the chance to make a full decision, so even if he didn''t get Zhang Xiu''s permission, he still had enough self-confidence.


    Nadey said, "go ahead!"


    The emperor replied, "have you ever been to Peshawar, sir


    "Yes!"


    NaDY nodded.


    However, he was about to go crazy. What he asked was how to settle the resettlement problem of tens of thousands of people. But the emperor had to be left and right by Wang Gu. He didn''t answer directly, which made him unhappy.


    That is to say, Nader Yi was patient, so he kept urging. If he was a little impatient, he would have picked up the knife and wanted to see it down. He wanted to get rid of the emperor''s beard directly.


    The emperor said, "since you have been to Peshawar, you will know that the four walls of Peshawar are still empty places."


    "Your Majesty has long considered the question you mentioned."


    "Your Majesty has said that you will build another city outside Peshawar, build an outer city, and build innumerable houses for the 100000 people living in the mountains."


    "These hundreds of thousands of people need not only a place to live, but also farmland to cultivate. Otherwise, we just go out of the mountains, but we can''t live without cultivated land. "


    Emperor Xu''s eyes were sincere, but he slowed down his tone and said: "so your majesty said that he would take out the noble title deeds that he had seized and divide the land outside Peshawar according to the population in your mountains. Everyone could distribute the land. In this way, you will be able to make sure that you have land for the tillers. "


    "Are you serious?" asked nadey


    Such a condition, not to mention the ordinary people in the mountains, even Nadie had some inner feelings. He is not a man who is greedy for power. If Nadi was greedy for power, he would not live in such a barren place, let alone take over power.


    He is dedicated to serving the people in the mountains.


    I hope everyone can have a good life.


    That''s Nader''s wish.


    As soon as the emperor''s big sleeve brushed, he threw the ground and said in a voice: "as the saying goes, the emperor made a promise and followed his words. What your majesty has promised will not be falsified. Not only that, but I can also tell you. After all, you''ve been in the mountains all the time. You don''t have much money when you get out of the mountains. It''s not easy to live a good life. "


    "Your Majesty has taken this into consideration."


    "Today''s Peshawar city is in the process of repairing cities and digging ditches. These are all relief work. As long as you do something, you can get money. "


    "In this way, you can support your family when you get out of the mountain."


    The emperor must continue: "of course, the city will be built again outside the city. You go out of the mountain and follow your Majesty''s orders to build cities and houses. These things are just right, so that you can earn money and support your family. This is your chance."


    Nadie took a long breath after listening.


    He wandered around.


    The common people in the courtyard, one by one, are already shining in their eyes, and their faces are full of joy and expectation. Because in today''s situation, people are eager to get out of the mountain, because the conditions outside the mountain are so good.


    It''s incredible.


    Nadey is a thoughtful but extremely cautious man. Because emperor Xu said so well, he said in a deep voice: "emperor Xu, the conditions you put forward are really very good. In my heart, I hope it''s true. If it is true, we can all get rid of the present predicament and no longer hide in this mountain. But once we get out of the mountain, we will be ambushed. What shall we do? "


    The people are the most vulnerable.The villagers in the mountain were on the alert and looked at emperor Xu one by one. They were worried and worried again.


    What if they were ambushed?


    Emperor Xuxin said that nade was really difficult to deal with, so it was not easy to persuade. Of course, Emperor Xu''s heart, in fact, also admired such a person as Nadi, thoughtful, can not waver for the interests.


    Such people are the most difficult to deal with.


    Emperor Xu said slowly, "in fact, what you are worried about is not the problem at all. Nadie took a deep breath, and his face was moving.


    He agreed to go out of the mountain.

 Chapter 1417

    Emperor Xu said in a deep voice: "to tell you the truth, it''s good for you to go out. Even if you don''t go out, your majesty will consume more resources. If you don''t go out of the mountain, your majesty won''t fight and consume so many resources. "


    After a pause, Emperor Xu said: "this is your chance. If you seize it, you can change your destiny. If you can''t, you''ll stay in the mountains. "


    Nade said, "OK, let''s get out of the mountain."


    Emperor Xu laughed and confidently said, "you will not regret your decision. For the people in the mountains, this is your chance. "


    "But even if it''s decided to get out of the mountain, it''s not going to get out in a moment," Nader said. After all, there are so many people in the mountains today who need to be arranged. "


    The emperor must ponder for a moment and say, "I have some ideas about the proposal of going out of the mountain."


    Nadey said, "I''d like to hear about it!"


    The emperor must answer: "to move out of the mountain people, the first is voluntary, which is the biggest one. Of course, I believe that the vast majority of people are willing to go out of the mountains and will not stay in the mountains all their lives. "


    "Second, there must be a plan for how many people will be moved out in the first batch, and how many people will be moved out in the second batch, one at a time. This involves who is responsible for the first batch, who is responsible for the second batch, and who will move out. It has to be settled. "


    "Thirdly, I suggest that you should be the first to go out of the mountain, because after you go out of the mountain, you can immediately promote the resettlement of the people. The most important point is that the people who come out of the mountain have the backbone because of you. After all, there are not too many problems in the mountains. "


    Emperor Xu zhengse said: "as long as these arrangements are in place, a virtuous circle will be formed when groups of people come out of the mountain. In the end, tens of thousands of people in the mountain will not be a problem."


    Nade''s brain became clear when he heard it.


    Because the advice that emperor must give is very detailed.


    The specific step, how to do it and what to do have been made clear. As for the details, it is not difficult for nade.


    Nader Yi said: "I understand your words. Give me three days. I''ll arrange things. Three days later, I''ll take the first group of people out of the mountain with you. "


    "No problem!"


    Emperor Xu said: "these three days, I will take a look in the mountains to see the local conditions and customs in the mountains."


    "Yes!"


    Nade''s on his way.


    However, Nader Yi allowed emperor Xu to wander in the mountains and arranged for people to follow him.


    After Dixu left, Nadi began to get busy, calling some of the principal people in the mountain to confirm the first batch of Chu mountain and the subsequent batch of people who came out of the mountain.


    NaDY has been busy for three days,


    in these three days, Dixu has been wandering around, but NaDY has never met Dixu.


    Three days is fleeting.


    On this day, in the morning.


    However, Emperor Xu came to Nader Yi''s yard. Before he spoke, Nader Yi took the initiative to say, "Mr. emperor Xu, the first group of people who came out with me have been determined. The first group of people who came out with me was a thousand. "


    "These 1000 people are young and strong."


    "After the first group of 1000 people settled down, the second group was 10000 people. The number of people who followed gradually increased, and eventually moved 100000 people out of the mountains."


    "Today, we''re out of the mountain."


    "I''ve arranged everything."


    Nadey said, "Mr. TISU, when are we going to get out of the mountain?"


    Emperor must be positive way: "then out of the mountain."


    A few days ago, Emperor Xu had already arranged for his close followers to leave first and report to Zhang Xiu about the people going out of the mountain, so that Zhang Xiu could make arrangements early so as to welcome them.


    Moreover, the soldiers who went back to report also brought back the news that the emperor had to present to Zhang Xiu. It was the emperor''s promise to Nader that Zhang Xiu needed to make arrangements one by one.


    When Nader saw that the emperor had to respond, he immediately asked the people around him to deliver the letter.


    Soon, a thousand people gathered.


    These 1000 people are all young and strong, each with a simple and honest face and a strong body, which is extraordinary. This group of people are carefully selected by Nadi, and many of them are craftsmen who can do things. After the group of people out of the mountain, they can build houses to prepare for the subsequent people out of the mountain.


    This is Nadai''s intention.


    Emperor Xu didn''t take care of these, so he directly ordered to go out of the mountain, and a group of people were on their way. When the emperor had to enter the mountain, because he didn''t know the road, it took him a long time to go around.


    But now it''s a lot faster.


    After all, I am familiar with the road section.


    So the time to get out of the mountain is very fast.


    When the 1000 people led by nade Yi really came out of the mountains and came to the official road, they all looked strange, because most of them never went out of the mountains and didn''t know the outside world after they entered the mountains.Now I came out, excited.


    Especially when they come out now, they can be resettled.


    Don''t worry about the future.


    Di Xu looked at nade, because nade also had some emotional changes at this time. Emperor must order rest in place, rest for about two quarters of an hour, the party continued on their way.


    The party arrived in Peshawar in the evening.


    When the emperor arrived at the gate of Peshawar, he was surprised to see that sadika came out to meet him.


    Sadika''s heart, quite lost.


    Because emperor Xu''s mission was successful.


    Originally, sadika''s heart was expecting Dixu to fail, so he could continue to attack the people in the mountain. As long as he leads 30000 elite to go, he will be able to win smoothly.


    However, Dixu succeeded.


    This means that the people in the mountain do not need to attack at all.


    This also means that the emperor must make great contributions.


    Sadika was not very happy in his heart, but when he saw emperor Xu, his face didn''t show his inner emotion, so he said with a straight face: "emperor Xu, your majesty is waiting for you in the palace. Besides, Nadie will come with you. "


    Emperor Xu didn''t answer immediately. He asked, "how can I arrange the first 1000 people I brought back?"


    Sadika waved his hand to the left side of the city and said, "on the left side of the city, soldiers have built tents everywhere. All the 1000 people you brought back live in it for the time being. Starting tomorrow, we will expand the city, build houses and houses in the outer city, and finally let the people you bring back live in. "


    "I see!"


    "Thank you, Lord sadika," he said


    Immediately, di Xu and Nadi put all the people in the barracks. When all the people lived there, there were soldiers in the kitchen who cooked food and prepared food for the 1000 people who came out of the mountain.


    At this time, Nadai and TISU went straight into the palace.


    When they entered the palace, it was already completely dark. Lanterns were hanging in the palace, and torches were burning everywhere. Therefore, today''s imperial city is extremely bright.


    Nadi and the emperor had to enter the imperial city and soon came to the main hall.


    Zhang Xiu, sitting on the throne.


    "Chen Dixu, meet your majesty!"


    The emperor must lift his robe and kneel down to salute Zhang Xiu.


    One side of the Nader Yi, is also directly kneel down, salute to Zhang Xiu. For Nader Yi, he dare not carry a shelf, also can not carry a shelf, because now out of the mountain, need Zhang Xiu''s strong support.

 Chapter 1418

    Zhang Xiu swept the emperor''s beard and nodded: "this time, you did a good job."


    "Thank you for your praise!"


    Emperor must be very modest, said: "all this depends on your Majesty''s prestige."


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up!"


    "Thank you


    Emperor must respectfully stand up, but he looked at Nadie kneeling on one side, a little frown. Because Nader Yi was invited by him, he was willing to submit to Daqin, but Zhang Xiu didn''t call Nader Yi up from the beginning to the end.


    The emperor must be worried.


    When Emperor Xu was worried, he saw that Zhang Xiu had already stood up from the seat.


    Zhang Xiu went straight to Nader Yi, held Nader Yi in both hands, and said: "it''s good for Qing to lead hundreds of thousands of people to hide in the mountains, just to avoid oppression and exploitation. It''s good for Da Ren for Qing to give up power in the mountains and lead hundreds of thousands of people out of the mountains. Such benevolent and righteous people should be the model of Kushan. "


    Nader Yi knelt down to meet with emperor Xu.


    But later, Zhang Xiu did not pay attention to him, even, Zhang Xiu just called emperor must get up, completely put him aside. Such a result also worried nade.


    After all, he is out of the mountain.


    Now in the imperial city of Peshawar, it''s the fish on Zhang Xiu''s chopping board, which is left to be slaughtered by Zhang Xiu.


    There is no turning back.


    Even if Nadie was worried, he could only bear it.


    But Nader Yi didn''t expect, twinkling of an eye Zhang Xiu personally came to his body, the body helped him up, still so praise. All of a sudden, let nade''s heart, all worry to go, no more worry, but a strong excitement.


    He was very happy.


    Nadie bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty''s praise is wrong. I''m just a fugitive. I can''t be worthy of your praise. What I do is just what a Kushan should do. The Kushan people, oh, no, the people of Daqin, should not hide in the mountains, they should live in the sunshine. "


    Although Nadie seems simple, he has a gap in his heart and knows how to handle it.


    He mentioned a kusana.


    But in a flash, Nader Yi thought, today''s kusana has been destroyed. Now in the land of Kushan is the great Qin, so he changed his name directly, and regarded himself as the people of the great Qin.


    Just like this, let Zhang Xiu praise even more.


    Very good!


    Nadie is great!


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "now you come out of the mountain for the sake of the people in the mountain and live in the mountain. You may rest assured that I have arranged everything. "


    , "first, all the people in the mountains who gather in the mountains will gather in the city gate and then have a registered residence."


    "Second, now outside the city, we have begun to plan the address and build temporary residential areas for people. The people who come out of the mountain can enter the residence temporarily, and then the government will specially arrange people to build simple houses to facilitate the people to come out of the mountain. "


    "Third, resettlement and food are already being arranged."


    Zhang Xiu continued to talk about some other details, and finally said: "it should be arranged. Everything is ready. Nadi, you are fully responsible for this matter, and directly communicate with the current leader of Peshawar, liezhanqi. If there is something wrong, you can come to the palace to see me. "


    "Thank you


    Nade was relieved.


    With Zhang Xiu''s guarantee, everything will be easy to deal with.


    Zhang Xiu said: "emperor Xu, Nadi is new here. He is not familiar with many things and does not understand the situation. Now, for the time being, you will work with Nadie to help Nadie and try to finish the work as soon as possible. "


    "Yes, sir


    The emperor should respond without hesitation.


    It involves the resettlement of tens of thousands of people, which is a big project.


    At the same time, they can also make contributions. If the emperor can get involved in it, he will be able to get a share of such merits. Therefore, the heart of emperor Xu was 100% willing.


    Sadika stood aside, but his heart was lost, because he provided the position of tens of thousands of people. But in the end, he didn''t get any. On the contrary, all of them were not cheap. Emperor Xu had the advantage.


    But these are not what Zhang Xiu wants to manage.


    As soon as he waved his hand, the crowd withdrew.


    Now these problems of the people in the mountains have been settled, and it is only a matter of time before they are all solved. It won''t be long before all the hundreds of thousands of people will move out of the mountains.


    As for the mineral deposits mentioned by sadika, Zhang Xiu has arranged for people to go there for a long time.


    Now, just wait for the news.


    Especially in the whole south of Kushan, Ganning, Gaolan and others have been using troops. Good news has been coming from the front. Zhang Xiu is very happy when she sees it.


    Because it is just around the corner to seize the whole territory of Kushan.Time goes by day.


    Summer passed, and in the twinkling of an eye it entered the bleak autumn, and all things gradually withered. And with the passage of time, in the cool autumn wind, gradually more chill, blowing on people''s body, making people''s skin on the goose bumps.


    When it''s winter, early November.


    By this time, the whole outer city of Peshawar had been built. Countless mountain people have come out of the mountains and integrated into the city of Peshawar.


    In a few months, earth shaking changes have taken place.


    A lot of street houses have been built outside the city.


    Houses are constantly rising everywhere, and tens of thousands of people are building around Peshawar City, which makes Peshawar city expand a lot. Today''s Peshawar city is even more lively.


    After all, there are so many people.


    However, even in the winter, Peshawar is still in full swing. Many fortifications are in progress, such as digging ditches, building streets, or building farmers'' markets. These are the planning of the outer city of Peshawar.


    Through these fortifications, people can have something to do.


    After all, many people from the mountains lack the ability to integrate into the city of Peshawar. And now, they just got the land and so on, and they still need the help of the government for the time being.


    This is the benefit of work relief.


    On this day, when Zhang Xiu left the palace and wandered around the outer city, she was a royal guard. She quickly came to Zhang Xiu''s side, whispered a word, and then turned to return to the palace.


    When he returned to the palace, Wang Yue had been waiting for a long time.


    Wang Yue saluted and said, "your majesty!"


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "don''t be so polite!" Immediately, Zhang Xiu said, "I have heard from the royal guards that Ganning, Gaolan and zhangren will be sent back at the same time, right?"


    "Yes


    Wang Yue answered immediately.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu stretched out her hand, Wang Yue immediately handed over the war report.


    After waiting for Zhang Xiu to see, he couldn''t help laughing, laughter is full of joy.


    Wang Yue understood immediately and said, "congratulations to your majesty. Your majesty led the army to fight for Kushan, and finally captured the whole Kushan. The territory of our great Qin Dynasty has far surpassed that of all dynasties. Our national strength has never been stronger. All of these are the bravery and wisdom of your majesty. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a smile: "Wang Yue, you also learn to flatter me."


    Wang Yue said, "I''m just talking according to the facts."


    Zhang Xiu laughs and doesn''t say much.


    As a matter of fact, the three war reports sent back are indeed news of victory. No matter Gan Ning, Gao Lan or Zhang Ren, they have already won the battle. Even the army led by the three men converged at the southernmost side of Kushan.


    Now, they have begun to adjust the local governance.


    On the one hand, they sent letters to Zhang Xiu, on the other hand, they asked Zhang Xiu to arrange for someone to go to the post and take charge of the place, so that they could evacuate. If we just seize and withdraw, but do not reform, unstable places will eventually be seized and lost.


    It is necessary to completely control the local government and make the local government subordinate to it.


    only in this way can we withdraw troops.

 Chapter 1419

    "Newspaper!"


    At this time, another soldier entered and reported: "Your Majesty, a group of people from outside the Palace said they had been ordered to come. These people are all taxi drivers from Daqin. "


    "Xuan!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    When the soldiers went to send orders, Wang Yue said: "Your Majesty, I guess these people should be sent by the chief assistant to help your majesty govern the place. After all, it''s such a big Kushan that we need enough taxis to make everyone belong. "


    "It should be!"


    Zhang xiuhan said, "before that, I arranged for people to send letters back, so that the domestic scholars can come. Now it can be counted as coming."


    He had expectations in his eyes.


    Because the governance of Kushan can not only rely on the Kushan people, but also need the taxis of the Qin Dynasty. It also needs to educate the Kushan people, so that all the Kushan people can be transformed into the Qin people, and let all the Kushan people speak the official language of the Qin Dynasty, not the Kushan language. Only by unifying the characters, language and inheritance, can Kushan really integrate into Daqin.


    It wasn''t long before a group of people arrived outside the hall. But most of them are outside the hall, and only a small part of them enter the hall.


    The leader is Liu Ye.


    He was born in the Han Dynasty, but he had great talent. He once belonged to the state of Wei. After the fall of the state of Wei, Liu Ye became an official of the great Qin Dynasty. Now he is assigned to Kushan as the person in charge of this group of people.


    Liu Ye came forward, saluted respectfully, and said, "Minister Liu Ye, meet your majesty."


    "See your majesty!"


    Other taxis saluted one after another.


    Even the taxis outside the hall saluted one after another.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let all the people stand up. Her eyes fell on Liu Ye and said in a deep voice, "Liu Ye, you''ve come to guishuang. It''s very good. I believe that with your ability, you will be able to deal with everything of Kushan. "


    Liu Ye said, "I will live up to your Majesty''s high expectations."


    With that, Liu Ye handed the cabinet''s order, which was the appointment of Liu Ye and others. Zhang Xiu took over and didn''t feel that there was anything wrong, because in the arrangement of the cabinet, Liu Ye was appointed governor of Kushan, who was fully responsible for the affairs of Kushan.


    This means that Liu Ye is in charge of Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu believes in Liu Ye''s ability.


    In addition to Liu Ye, the cabinet''s order also mentioned that more than 1000 scholars came to Kushan to rush into the Kushan area and educate the Kushan people.


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "this imperial city has been renamed as Dadu Dufu. Many of the palaces in it have been changed into your government offices. You will enter here to work and dispatch all parties. Today, I will free this imperial city for you. "


    "Here it is


    Liu Ye responded directly.


    For him, there are a lot of things he has to do now, and it is not a simple thing to take charge of such a big Kushan, which requires great hardship.


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on the other taxis.


    These scholars gathered here.


    One by one, they are willing to leave their hometown, one by one, they are not ordinary people, they are people with ideals and ambitions. If not, no one is willing to travel thousands of miles away from home.


    This is Zhang Xiu''s judgment.


    Zhang Xiu stood up and strode forward.


    He came into the crowd.


    Directly facing the 1000 soldiers who came to Kushan.


    Zhang Xiu stood at the gate of the hall, with a large number of people inside and outside. He looked around and said in a deep voice, "I''m very moved that you are willing to leave your hometown and come to Kushan, a place you don''t know very well, to serve your country."


    "I am very proud of you."


    "I am very happy for Daqin."


    "Because there are a group of you in Daqin who are willing to open up territory for Daqin and work hard in guishuang. You are worthy of being the taxis of the great Qin Dynasty and the people of the Qin Dynasty. "


    Zhang Xiu said sincerely, "I should thank you for that. Because of a group of lovely people like you, the land of Daqin is so solid. "


    As soon as the words came out, they all answered humbly.


    Everyone said that Zhang Xiu was praised.


    It should not be praised by Zhang Xiu.


    After all, they come to Kushan with ambition, and they want to show their ambition. As a matter of fact, under the circumstances of peace and stability in Daqin, there is not enough opportunity for them to display their ambition in China.


    Instead, they come out to work and come to Kushan, which is a chance to make contributions.


    So they came.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "you have come to Kushan to build up your achievements. I can assure you that Kushan has room for you to display your talents. I can also guarantee that as long as you have outstanding achievements and abilities, there will be no less than one person. All of you will be rewarded and you will get what you deserve. "


    "Your majesty


    There was a loud cry in the crowd."Your majesty


    "Your majesty


    ¡­¡­


    One by one, the scholars began to shout. Because Zhang Xiu''s words are tantamount to reassuring them.


    Zhang Xiu immediately called for the soldiers and asked them to take Liu Ye and all the taxis to live in the palace, because next, all these people will work in Peshawar city for the time being. After Liu Ye got familiar with the situation of different places, she would send them out one by one and let them take up their posts.


    However, the arrangement of the southern city was the first one Liu Ye had to arrange.


    Zhang Xiu hands over all the information to Liu Ye and asks Liu Ye to check all the information. Then she takes a group of royal guards and leaves the imperial city to go to the location of the military camp in the city.


    After all, we have to give Liu Ye a place to work.


    After Zhang Xiu settled in the military camp, all government affairs were handled by Liu Ye. Originally, Liu Ye was a very talented person. He had accumulated a lot of experience in China over the years, so he soon began to deal with government affairs in guishuang.


    In a short time, Liu Ye combed everything in order.


    Everything is on the right track.


    As time goes by, winter comes and spring comes.


    In March of the new year, more than four months have passed since Liu Ye arrived in Kushan. In the past four months, Liu Ye had already sent the 1000 scholars he had brought to all parts of Kushan, and he had left only ten people in Peshawar.


    In this short time, Liu Ye also found out the situation of Kushan.


    Everything is booming.


    Lin has to deal with 100000 people, especially those who have moved from the mountains. From the beginning to the end, there was no problem at all.


    On this day, Wang Yue came to the camp.


    When Wang Yue saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed to him and said, "Your Majesty, the news has come from the south that Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and Gao Lan, who are going to fight in the south, have already led the army to withdraw from the front line. Now Liu Ye has sent a taxi to take office all over the country. Now all the taxis from Daqin have entered the role. All the territory of Kushan is under our control. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "I know!"


    For Zhang Xiu, everything is arranged properly, which means that Zhang Xiu is about to start his return journey. In the past two years, Zhang Xiu missed Daqin and her family.


    Zhang Xiu inquired: "how long will it take them to return to Peshawar city?"


    Wang Yue said: "it is estimated that there are still two days left."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, the words changed, then ordered: "you arrange people to the governor''s house, summon Liu Ye to see."


    The former imperial city became the governor''s house.


    As the governor''s office in charge of the whole Kushan, there are countless people working here and they are very busy all day.


    "Here it is


    The more Wang got the order, he turned down to inform.

 Chapter 1420

    After a short time, Liu Ye came to the barracks.


    Liu Ye is more and more capable now. After six months of experience, he has already entered the role. Now, Liu Ye is no longer Liu Ye who just took office in the past.


    When he saw Zhang Xiu, he bowed and said, "Minister Liu Ye, meet your majesty."


    Zhang xiuhan said: "I invite you here to tell you that I am going to lead my army to return home. I will leave soon. Do you have any request? I''m in Kushan now. I can help you with many things. When I return to Daqin, you will have to rely on yourself for everything about Kushan. "


    When Liu Ye heard the speech, he suddenly fell silent.


    Although Liu Ye was the governor of Kushan, he had already expected Zhang Xiu to leave. But I was caught off guard when I got the news.


    Because in Liu Ye''s view, Gan Ning and others have not withdrawn.


    Zhang Xiu shouldn''t have left so early.


    After thinking about it, Liu Ye didn''t immediately ask for it. Instead, he asked, "Your Majesty, most of the people like Gan Ning and Gao Lan are still sitting in the south of Kushan. They haven''t withdrawn yet. Your majesty is anxious to return to China. Is it because something big happened in China? "


    Zhang Xiu said: "there was no accident, because Ganning, Gaolan and others will return to Peshawar city in two days. Now that everything in Kushan is in order, I will lead my troops back home. "


    As soon as Liu Ye heard it, he understood it immediately.


    It turns out that Gan Ning and others returned to the imperial court. With this, it makes sense for Zhang Xiu to lead the troops away.


    Liu Ye changed his mind and said, "Your Majesty, I have only one request."


    "Say it


    Zhang Xiu said directly.


    Liu Ye said: "your majesty will lead his troops back to China, but in Kushan, we must guard against it. Only when someone guards, can there be no trouble. So please, your majesty, choose a good general to guard the Kushan and avoid its turbulence. "


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I take pound as the general and lead 30000 elite soldiers to guard Kushan. What do you think?"


    After thinking about it, Liu Ye said, "Your Majesty, it''s difficult to maintain the whole Kushan if you want to have 30000 talents. In my opinion, I''m afraid we need at least 50000 elites. In this way, we will not have no soldiers to send when there is turbulence. "


    Zhang Xiu thought a little, then said: "only 30000 elites were given to pound, but he was allowed to recruit local people. The establishment was 50000, and the enrollment could be expanded to 50000."


    "Thank you


    Liu Ye immediately said thanks.


    In fact, it''s enough to keep Pound''s 30000 talents and then recruit soldiers from the local area. Of course, in order to take charge of the whole Kushan, Liu Ye is very clear that all localities must also set up corresponding troops in case of accidents. But this is the next step. Liu Ye is not in a hurry.


    "Is there anything else?" Zhang Xiu asked


    "No!"


    Liu Ye shook his head and answered.


    Zhang Xiu waved her hand and said, "go down!"


    "Here it is


    Liu Ye bowed to thank him and turned to leave. When he returned to the governor''s office, he thought that Zhang Xiu was about to leave Peshawar City, leave Kushan and return to Daqin, so he arranged for someone to inform his staff to meet him.


    Why is the name of staff Jianyi!


    He was born in a poor family. Thanks to the great Qin Dynasty, he had already carried out the scientific examination in an all-round way, so he Jianyi was able to take part in the examination. However, he failed to make progress step by step. He passed a county test and was unable to make further progress.


    He finally went to Chang''an to make a living.


    When Liu Ye left Chang''an, he recruited he Jianyi and brought him to Kushan.


    He Jianyi saluted and said, "my Lord!"


    Liu Ye nodded: "sit down!"


    "Thank you


    After he Jianyi was seated, he zhengse said: "I don''t know if you are summoned by adults. What can I do for you?"


    Liu Ye said: "I just went to see your majesty. Now your majesty has decided that he will leave for China in a few days. Your majesty is about to leave. As governor of Kushan, I can''t help saying that. How do you do this? "


    He Jian one eye bead drops the slippery turn, thinking quickly.


    A moment later, he Jianyi said with a smile: "my Lord, I have a suggestion."


    Liu Ye said, "tell me!"


    He Jianyi said: "in fact, after your majesty destroyed the Kushan, because your majesty swept the whole Kushan aristocracy and liberated the people. Thousands of Kushan people are grateful for your majesty and his great kindness."


    "What adults have to do is very simple."


    "That is, when the time for your Majesty''s departure is determined, it will be announced that your majesty is about to take his troops home. A little more guidance will be arranged to urge the people to bid farewell to your majesty. "


    "So, it must be a vast scene."


    "Just imagine, your majesty is going to leave. Thousands of people are seeing each other off. The scene is unprecedented and the atmosphere is warm. For your majesty, this is the greatest reward. "


    He Jianyi said: "at your Majesty''s step, there is no lack of power or money. Now, your majesty, the gratitude of the people, can move your majesty. The rest of your gifts to your majesty are useless. ""No, it works!"


    Liu Ye''s eyes narrowed.


    He flashed a light in his eyes and said with a smile, "Mr. He, what you said reminds me."


    He Jianyi said, "governor, do you have any good ideas?"


    Liu Ye said: "as you said, your majesty is not short of power, money, treasures and so on. However, some relatively simple but meaningful things are different. Mr. He, you do something for me. "


    He Jianyi said, "please give me your instructions."


    Liu Ye said, "prepare yourself and take people to collect the books of the people. The title of the book of peoples is to thank your majesty for what he has done and to explain your Majesty''s achievements one by one. From your Majesty''s entry into the city of no thunder, you can explain them one by one. Then, once again, let the people press their fingerprints on it. If they can write, they will write. If they can''t, they will press their fingerprints directly. This is what I want to present to your majesty when your majesty leaves. "


    "Here it is


    With a smile on his face, he Jianyi said: "the governor is considerate. Although the 10000 people''s books are extremely simple, they actually carry the gratitude of thousands of people. In particular, your majesty has won the hearts of the people. There must be thousands of people who are willing to press their fingerprints on the people''s books. It''s easy to do. "


    Liu Ye said: "since it''s easy to do, it''s good."


    He Jianyi said: "governor, I will go down to make arrangements."


    "Go


    Liu Ye nodded.


    After he Jianyi left, Liu Ye''s heart was thinking about some subsequent things. When Zhang Xiu''s leaving affairs were arranged properly, Liu Ye stood at the desk and continued to deal with government affairs.


    Liu Ye is in charge of the whole Kushan, not one place or two, but the vast Kushan. Such a place involves many problems, especially in Kushan, where many people are still not completely free from the influence of the caste system. In fact, Liu Ye''s task is also very heavy.


    However, Liu Ye did not find it difficult to deal with it.


    After all, Liu Ye has enough experience and ability to deal with it.


    Time flies, two days in a flash.


    On this day, on the official road outside Peshawar, there were three great armies on their way. The three armies, which were led by Gao Lan, Gan Ning and Zhang Ren, converged when they withdrew from the South and entered the territory of Peshawar.


    So it''s time to go back together.


    No matter Gan Ning, Gao Lan or Zhang Ren, his face is full of relaxed and comfortable smile.


    This time, they came back successfully.

 Chapter 1421

    Liu Ye had been waiting at the gate for a long time. When Gao Lan, Gan Ning and Zhang Ren were in the south, they all got the news that Liu Ye had been governor of Kushan and was in charge of the whole Kushan.


    The three came forward and saluted.


    Liu Ye said with a smile, "three generals are welcome. Your majesty is waiting for you in the city now."


    "Please


    Liu Ye swung his hand sideways.


    "Please


    Zhang Ren and others answered that they went into the city together with Liu Ye.


    After they returned to the city, they went straight to the barracks. When they got to the army, they had their own soldiers. Zhang Ren and others, together with Liu Ye, went straight to the big account of the Chinese army.


    The party bowed to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu motioned to the people to take their seats and said, "you three are very good in this southern battle. It was a good fight, and it showed the style of our Qin army. "


    "Your Majesty, that''s ridiculous."


    Zhang Ren and others, Qi Qian replied modestly.


    As a matter of fact, when they went south, they really didn''t encounter any difficulties. After all, because Tuoluo buried 600000 troops, the whole south of guishuang had no troops to compete with the Qin army. So when they went south, they almost swept all the way. The only difficulty was to abolish the caste system.


    It took a little bit of effort.


    The rest, in fact, is not difficult.


    Zhang Xiu opened the door to the mountain and said: "now the Kushan has been calmed, and the army led by me is also ready to leave for home. So when you come back to Peshawar, you will take a rest and come back with me. "


    When they heard this, they were all excited.


    It''s been such a long time since I came out. One by one, when I learned that I was going to return home, I was very happy.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "although we want to return home, we need people to stay in Kushan. I have decided that pound will lead 30000 troops to guard Kushan. Would you like to


    "The end will be willing!"


    Pound didn''t even think about it. He answered directly.


    He has always been the Deputy General of Gaolan, although pound has no opinion on this official position. But the problem is that it''s a great opportunity for pound to be able to take a seat alone, especially in such an important place as Kushan.


    It can''t be missed.


    So Pound''s heart was very happy.


    Even if I can''t go back to China for the time being, it''s the most exciting thing to be able to make contributions in Kushan.


    Zhang xiuhan said: "well, since you are willing, I won''t say more. However, although I only give you 30000 talents, I allow you to expand to 50000. You can recruit the redundant soldiers from the local area. "


    "I will obey you!"


    Pound''s honest answer.


    Zhang Xiu looked around at the crowd, and her eyes finally fell on Liu Ye, saying, "Liu Ye, you are the governor of Kushan. I''ve told you about Kushan before, but I won''t say much about it. Two days later, I set out for the north. In these two days, you can adjust your own arrangements. While I''m still here, I can make a direct decision on what I need to ask for instructions. "


    "Thank you


    As soon as Liu Ye listens to Zhang Xiu for two days, he is about to leave, and his heart knows that this matter will be informed.


    This is his plan.


    Let Zhang Xiu leave Kushan, can have a good impression.


    After a pause, Liu Ye continued: "Your Majesty, your majesty is going to leave Kushan. You need something to present to your majesty. This is not only the will of ministers, but also the will of thousands of people. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "present it!"


    Liu Ye said, "come on, bring it in!"


    Voice falls, see camp outside, entered a attendant. The attendant was holding a four foot long box in his hand. When Liu Ye took it over, he handed it to Zhang Xiu and said, "Your Majesty, this is the wish of the minister and the people of Kushan when you leave."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, Wang Yue came forward to take over and opened the brocade box.


    Inside is a scroll of the book of peoples.


    When Zhang Xiu unfolded the scroll, she saw the dense fingerprints on it and the gratitude of thousands of people to Zhang Xiu. Among them, some people leave their names, but some people can''t read. That''s the fingerprints.


    There are countless fingerprints and names.


    Such density is enough to prove the will of the people.


    After seeing this, Zhang Xiu showed a bright smile on her face. Unexpectedly, when she was on her way, she received a letter from Wan min. Even though Liu Ye led this, in fact, it was the people who sincerely appreciated Zhang Xiu.


    That''s why we have such a scale.


    That''s why there''s such a long scroll.


    Zhang Xiu carefully folded the scroll and said with a smile: "yes, this is the best gift. Liu Ye, you have a heart. "


    "Your Majesty''s praise is wrong!"


    Liu Ye said: "this is the duty of a minister, and it is also the wish of thousands of people. If there is no your majesty, then the thousands of people in Kushan will not be liberated, and they will not really become the masters of Kushan. All this is brought by your majesty. "Zhang Xiu smiles.


    Although Liu Ye said the truth, it was also tantamount to flattery.


    But Zhang Xiu accepted it.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu''s words changed, she said, "since you don''t have anything else to do, all the letters from the taxis who stayed in Kushan and the officials and soldiers who were in Peshawar city to be sent back will be presented and I will take them back with me. Although there is a post station to transfer letters, it is too slow. I can take part of it with me. "


    "Thank you


    After hearing this, Liu Ye was excited and said, "I will arrange this matter immediately. For all the people in Peshawar, this is the greatest reward. "


    For Liu Ye and he Jianyi, as well as other soldiers and officials who stayed in Kushan, they would send letters and money back everyday, but it was very slow.


    Now, Zhang Xiu is willing to take it back, which is the best.


    So Liu Ye was very excited.


    He did not delay. After his words, he immediately turned and left to tell the news to the people in Peshawar so that they could prepare immediately.


    Gan Ning also said, "Your Majesty, I will arrange it. All the officers and men in the army need to send letters back. "


    "Go


    Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.


    Immediately, Zhang Xiu let everyone go down to rest together. After all, Zhang Ren and others had a long journey back, which was quite hard, and they needed a good rest.


    Zhang Xiu stayed in the camp.


    Start to sort out everything in guishuang, because it''s about to leave. What should be disposed of is that Zhang Xiu wants to finish it. For a plan of the whole Kushan, Zhang Xiu also took it out and asked someone to hand it over to Liu Ye, so that Liu Ye could make a reference.


    Time flies.


    In the twinkling of an eye, two days passed.


    In the early morning of this day, Zhang Xiu got up early and finished her morning exercise. After eating early, she had already called up the army and was ready to leave.


    "Newspaper!"


    Just then, a soldier came in a hurry.


    The soldier cried out, "sire, there are countless people coming outside our camp. Dense, has blocked the road outside the camp


    There was some panic in the soldier''s words.


    Because I don''t understand the situation.

 Chapter 1422

    "Go and have a look."


    Zhang Xiu heard, immediately ordered.


    Because in today''s situation, Zhang Xiu does not know what happened. What''s more, today''s Peshawar city is peaceful, and it is impossible for the people to encircle it, so Zhang Xiu is not afraid.


    Soon, Zhang Xiu took Pang Tong, Guo Jia and others to the gate of the camp.


    "Here comes your majesty!"


    In the crowd, someone was shouting.


    "Your majesty


    "Your majesty


    More and more people are shouting, and this cry gradually converges to form a vast cry.


    The rising and falling sound is like a tsunami.


    It''s very turbulent.


    As soon as Zhang Xiu heard this voice, she could tell that all the people gathered together, and there was no hostility at all. Even in the tsunami of the people, she had only respect for him.


    Obviously, the people knew that he was going to leave.


    So I came to see you off.


    That''s why so many people come together.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the people''s cry. After a long time, she raised her hand and pressed down. The people''s cry gradually subsided, and the surrounding area also gradually quieted down.


    At this time, Wang Yue came and whispered a word in Zhang Xiu''s ear.


    He has found out that the reason why the people come is because Zhang Xiu is about to leave Peshawar City, so the people gather here to see Zhang Xiu off.


    Zhang Xiu nodded, he went out a distance, stood outside the camp, his eyes swept over the camp outside, dense black crowd.


    The terrain outside the camp is open.


    There are hillsides in the distance.


    When Zhang Xiu looked around, she could even see clearly that there were still people standing on the hillside. She obviously came to see Zhang Xiu off, but it was too late. Because she couldn''t get close to her, she could only stand in the distance and watch.


    Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "I already know the purpose of the villagers. As I leave the city of Peshawar, I am very pleased to have so many people come to see me off. "


    "Thank you."


    "Thank you for your kindness."


    "Although I have left, Liu Ye, who later took charge of Kushan, is a man of outstanding talent. He is bound to continue to carry out my policy and reform to the end."


    "You are the masters of Daqin guishuang."


    "It won''t change."


    Zhang Xiu continued: "as long as you are down-to-earth and diligent, as long as your descendants study hard, you will have the chance to get ahead and come out. Now is the golden age of Kushan. It''s your chance. I hope you can take it well. "


    "The green mountains will not change, and the green waters will flow. Goodbye!"


    Zhang Xiu said, then turned around to look at Gan Ning and others behind him, and ordered: "let''s go!"


    Everyone is ready.


    Zhang Xiu gave an order, soldiers set out, the vanguard army walked in front, Zhang Xiu sat in the middle army, and the army quickly went on the road, the army left the barracks.


    As the army left, the people standing along the official road gave way and let Zhang Xiu''s army pass. This road has been nearly ten miles, and some people have followed.


    When we are far away from Peshawar, we will not see the people.


    After arriving at the northern city of Kabul, with a little supply, the army continued to the northern city of Ramsey. When we arrived at Wulei city and Kushan border, it was near the end of April.


    Slow down when you come.


    After all, all the places along the way need to be attacked everywhere, which will delay a lot of time. However, on the way back, there will be no such problem, that is, when replenishing, we need to take a rest.


    After entering the western regions, the army slowed down a little.


    Today''s western regions are under control.


    The western regions have been completely destroyed and become the prefectures and counties of Daqin.


    All of these places have unified writing and language.


    All became the territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu''s concept of territory is that books are the same, cars are the same, and everything is changed into the same. Only in this way can we ensure real assimilation, not temporary attachment.


    That''s how it belongs.


    Because there will be some desert areas along the way of the western regions, the speed is slower.


    Although the speed of driving is slow, it is also a good opportunity for Zhang Xiu to understand the local development. The royal guards all over the country kept sending news to Zhang Xiu so that she could know the local situation.


    Today, all over the world, it is increasingly prosperous.


    After all, after the war, all parts of the country could trade with each other, and the economic circulation and the internal goods of Daqin were continuously transported out, which made the place even more charming.


    In June, the army led by Zhang Xiu crossed the western regions and returned to Liangzhou.Today''s Liangzhou is also extremely prosperous.


    Because there are a lot of businessmen.


    After all, after opening up with the western regions, the former silk road has been full of vitality. Therefore, countless domestic businessmen gathered in Liangzhou and then reselled goods for business.


    This situation is what Zhang Xiu is happy to see.


    Because it''s a good thing.


    The more prosperous the place is, the better the development of Daqin will be. This is an excellent situation. When Zhang Xiu returned to Liangzhou, Yang Xiu, the governor of Liangzhou, left Jixian County and came to guzang to welcome Zhang Xiu.


    When Yang Xiu saw Zhang Xiu, he said respectfully, "Your Majesty is going to the war to sweep the Kushan. Congratulations on your return."


    Zhang xiudao: "dezu, what''s the situation in Liangzhou now?"


    Yang Xiu replied, "to your majesty, today''s Liangzhou has a population of 300000 households. In terms of population alone, Liangzhou has developed too much. Not only that, because of the opening up of the western regions, Liangzhou has a key geographical location, and now it has an excellent development trend, with business tax increasing year by year. "


    "Good, good!"


    Zhang Xiu''s face showed approval.


    Yang Xiu has been in Liangzhou for many years and has made remarkable achievements. For Zhang Xiu, his expectation of Liangzhou was not limited to this, so he said: "dezu, although Liangzhou''s economy developed rapidly by relying on the western regions, it can''t just rely on this. In Liangzhou, we still need to develop our own industries. Do you understand? "


    "I understand


    Yang Xiu solemnly replied: "over the years, Chen has begun to layout, and now mining continues to advance. In addition, he has also built many paper industries and many fruit producing areas, which are advancing step by step."


    Zhang Xiu said, "that''s good."


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "although we should focus on local development, we must severely punish and control local corruption. We must not connive at local corruption just because of local development. "


    Yang xiudao: "Your Majesty''s instruction, remember your humble duty."


    Zhang Xiu nodded, and asked many questions, then took Yang Xiu to continue on his way.

 Chapter 1423

    As soon as the army led by Zhang Xiu returned to Jixian County, he temporarily took a rest in Jixian County. Such a rest, on the one hand, is conducive to the rest of the soldiers, on the other hand, Zhang Xiu takes this opportunity to start to understand the local situation, after all, for Liangzhou understanding, through the field investigation, we can get the most real news.


    After July, Zhang Xiucai led the army to leave Jixian County for Sili area.


    When Zhang Xiu withdrew, Chang''an already got the news first.


    Inside the palace, Xuanshi hall.


    The crown prince, Zhang Cheng, sits under the Dragon chair, followed by members of the cabinet. On the faces of all the people, there were brilliant smiles, because everyone got the news of Zhang Xiu''s triumphant return.


    Last year, the war report of Kushan was sent back.


    Everyone knows that Kushan has been captured.


    Now, the triumphant return of Zhang Xiu is a great inspiration to the whole Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Cheng is now 18 or 19 years old. His appearance is similar to Zhang Xiu''s, and his facial features are angular. Zhang Cheng, in particular, has been practicing martial arts, so his spirit is excellent. He is not a weak man.


    He sat at the top, looked around the crowd and said, "the army led by my father has entered the Sili area. Soon, I will return to Chang''an. Today, I will gather all the officials to discuss how to meet my father. Gentlemen, if you have any suggestions for welcoming your father, please speak freely. "


    Jia Xu stroked his beard under his jaw and said slowly, "Your Majesty is still in court. It''s a big matter. The old minister suggested that the prince should go ten miles out of the city and meet his majesty at a place ten miles away from Chang''an city. "


    His voice was slightly hoarse.


    After all, Jia Xu is now nearly 70 years old. However, although Jia Xu is old, he is hale and hearty. He walks with wind and never grows old.


    Xu Shu nodded his head and said, "prince, I agree with Jia Gong''s suggestion."


    Among all the people, Xu Shu is the first assistant.


    Especially today''s Xu Shu, who is more than 40 years old, is the most experienced and capable stage. At this stage, Xu Shu was young and energetic.


    As soon as he agreed, he was making a decision, so the rest of the people agreed and did not raise any objection. After all, Zhang Xiu led the army to a successful return, which is a major event, not careless.


    Seeing the consensus, Zhang Cheng waved his hand and said, "let''s go down and get ready. Once the news of our father''s entry into Chang''an comes back, we will go to meet him."


    "Here it is


    All of us should go down together.


    One by one, after leaving, Zhang Cheng''s calm face disappeared, and his face was full of joy. He walked out of Xuanshi hall and went straight to Hougong.


    Soon, he came to the harem.


    This is Huang Yueying''s harem.


    Zhang Chengjing went straight into the palace and saw Huang Yueying, who was working as a woman worker. He said, "my son''s minister is visiting my mother!"


    Today''s Huang Yueying is not a young woman of the past. She has already cultivated herself. Therefore, on weekdays, Huang Yueying mainly stays in the palace, embroidery or playing mahjong with other people for entertainment. She has a relaxed life.


    From time to time, Huang Yueying also took a few women out of the palace to play.


    Life is very comfortable.


    Huang Yueying looked up and asked, "why is cheng''er here, but what''s the matter?"


    Zhang Cheng said: "in reply to my mother, my father led the army to return from Kushan and will soon return to Chang''an."


    "Seriously?"


    Huang Yueying looks surprised.


    Zhang Xiu has been away for many years, but now she has come back triumphantly. This is very good news for Huang Yueying, Cao Jie and Daqiao in the palace.


    Zhang Cheng replied: "we have received the message from the sentinel. The message has been confirmed. The children''s ministers and the ministers of the cabinet have discussed properly. They are ready to go ten miles out of Chang''an to welcome the return of their father."


    "Good, good!"


    Huang Yueying said two good words one after another. She waved her hand to let Zhang Cheng back. Then she arranged for people to call all the women, such as Cao Jie, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, and told her that Zhang Xiu was about to return to the court.


    That''s good news for everyone.


    One by one, they were overjoyed.


    Huang Yueying looked at all the women and said, "prepare for your Majesty''s return."


    "Here it is


    All the women answered according to their words.


    There was a look of expectation on each face.


    The women were ordered to go back to their respective palaces to meet Zhang Xiu, who was about to return to the imperial court.


    Both inside and outside the imperial court knew that Zhang Xiu had returned and was preparing for her return. The news also came out from the palace, and the people also knew that his majesty Zhang Xiu had returned triumphantly.


    Today''s Daqin has not been established for a long time.


    In fact, the power of Daqin is far more powerful than that of the old Han Dynasty. For the people of Daqin, they have a strong sense of belonging to Daqin. They are more grateful to Zhang Xiu for ending the war, so they have great respect for Zhang Xiu.


    As soon as the people heard that Zhang Xiu was returning, many people spontaneously went to meet him. As soon as Zhang Xiu entered the territory of Chang''an, many of the people were already welcoming the triumphant return of the army on the roadside.Zhang Xiu along the way, saw the welcome of the people, the heart is quite gratified.


    It took him a long time to go to Kushan.


    For such a long time, the country is still stable, the people are still simple, and thank him, which is the most gratifying thing for Zhang Xiu.


    However, the speed of the army''s drive has not slowed down.


    All the way, the army finally arrived at Chang''an City in early August.


    It''s ten miles to the west of Chang''an city.


    This is an open road, Zhang Cheng led the civil and military officials, all here to welcome Zhang Xiu. Fortunately, it''s early August now. Although the sun is shining in the north, it''s not particularly hot.


    A group of people with patience, waiting quietly.


    Zhang Cheng was standing in the front, straight and looking into the distance.


    Time goes by little.


    All of a sudden, someone yelled, "you are back, your majesty is back!"


    With this cry, everyone''s eyes looked forward to the official road ahead. There were banners and troops on the official road ahead. After a while, they could clearly see the returning team.


    Impressively, Zhang Xiu and his party.


    Zhang Xiu led the army to go on the road quickly, and within a short time, it had already reached the area where Zhang Cheng was.


    Zhang Cheng took the initiative to come forward and bowed to the emperor and said, "my son''s ministers have come to see him. I wish him a happy return."


    Zhang Xiu stands on horseback.


    With a faint smile on his face, he turned over and dismounted, went to Zhang Cheng and looked at him carefully. It has been many years since Zhang Xiu left Chang''an. Today, Zhang Cheng is more handsome than Zhang Xiu when she was young.


    The temperament is outstanding.


    Zhang Xiu also nodded one after another and nodded: "not bad, not bad!"


    Zhang Cheng said, "my father is over praised."


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "in these years, you have been in the rear to supervise the country. Many of your news has been passed to me by the royal guards. It''s very nice and I''m very glad that you can follow the rules and do things conscientiously. The stable development of the imperial court is inseparable from the efforts of the officials in the imperial court, and you have contributed a lot. "


    Zhang Cheng was glad to hear that.


    It''s Zhang Cheng''s greatest relief to be praised by his father.


    Zhang Cheng said, "my father praised me."


    Zhang Xiu''s eyes turned and fell on Jia Xu, Xu Shu, Tian Feng and other left behind officials. She said, "gentlemen, I''ve worked hard for you these days."


    "I don''t work hard!"


    Xu Shu, Jia Xu and others spoke together.


    "Departure, return to Chang''an!"


    After Zhang Xiu said a few words, she ordered her departure.


    With the return of the team, more and more people met along the way, cheering Zhang Xiu''s victory. For the common people of the great Qin Dynasty, the great Qin Dynasty''s opening up territory and bringing guishuang into the territory of the great Qin Dynasty is a feat that has never been made in a thousand years. Zhang Xiu''s feat is no less than that of the Qin Emperor Hanwu.


    This is a great achievement.


    This is the impact of opening up territory.


    After returning to the streets of Chang''an, the people on both sides of Chang''an are cheering


    Shouts, one after another.


    Its voice is constantly echoing.


    Zhang Xiu rode the horse to the front. He looked on both sides of the street, cheering the people, his heart is also full of pride. Because the continuous expansion and prosperity of Daqin will make the people in Daqin more confident.


    Because they are from Qin Dynasty.


    Zhang Xiu led the army, constantly on the way, and finally returned to the imperial city.


    A group of courtiers entered the Xuanshi hall.


    After Baiguan saluted Zhang Xiu, Zhang Xiu waved her hand to let everyone sit down. Zhang Xiu simply inquired about some things that happened in China. Now in Daqin, everything is booming, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the country is peaceful and the people are in peace, and the overall development trend is excellent.


    Zhang Xiu also knows that the place can''t be really clear and there can''t be no problems.


    After all, when the water is clear, there is no fish.


    However, today''s Daqin has a good general direction.


    Zhang Xiu listened to the report one by one, and this report alone lasted until the evening. Zhang Xiu specially held a banquet in the palace, leaving the Palace officials to celebrate together.


    After the banquet, all officials were sent away.


    In the hall, it was quiet at last, only Zhang Xiu and Zhang Cheng were left.


    Zhang Xiu looks at Zhang Cheng, and he suddenly says, "Cheng Er, if you are in charge of Daqin, what are your plans?"


    Zhang Cheng zhengse said: "in return to my father and emperor, my children''s ministers have been supervising the country and dealing with state affairs these years. When there are few things, they will also visit places to learn about the local situation. Today, local academies, farmers'' cultivated land and land reform are still flawed. If the children''s ministers are in charge of state affairs, they will start from these aspects. "After a pause, Zhang Cheng continued: "in addition to the rapid development of Mohist craftsmen, there are countless new things that have promoted the development of the place. Therefore, in this respect, it is also necessary to implement it. "


    Zhang Xiu said, "is it gone?"


    After thinking about it, Zhang Cheng said, "if you want to say yes, there is still one thing, but it has not been carried out yet. That is the business on the sea. Because of the discovery of the children''s minister and the more solid warships, many businessmen have begun to do business on the sea. These people took silk, tea, cloth and so on to sea, and eventually brought back countless money. Therefore, this aspect can also be planned by the government as a whole, which is a great point and can be excavated. "


    "Good!"


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu couldn''t help cheering.


    Although Zhang Cheng didn''t consider many aspects, only some of them were involved, in fact, what Zhang Cheng mentioned was quite important and needed to be dealt with in the future.


    Maritime trade, in particular, is the top priority.


    It''s an entry point.


    Zhang Cheng is a little embarrassed to smile, because he did not expect that his immature remarks could win his father''s approval. However, after Zhang Cheng returned to his senses, he said: "father, now, spring and autumn are at their peak, which is the most experienced time. So now, my son still needs to follow his father and learn more experience, so that he can manage Daqin well. "


    Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "if you have this heart, it''s late. Go back and have a rest."


    "Here it is


    Zhang Cheng was a little confused.


    Although he was happy with the return of Zhang Xiu, his words made him feel dizzy.


    I don''t know why.


    However, Zhang Cheng didn''t study deeply, and turned to leave.


    Zhang Xiu went straight to the back palace.


    He wanted to be a woman for a long time when he left Daqin. On returning to the harem, Huang Yueying and all the girls were there. When they saw Zhang Xiu, they were even more delighted.


    Zhang Xiu had already had a meal, but when she asked the girls, she learned that none of them had had a meal, so she accompanied them to dinner. After dinner, everyone did not leave and stayed in Huang Yueying''s palace. In the end, they were all sleeping together for a night.

 Chapter 1424

    The next day, early in the morning.


    Zhang Xiu rarely stayed in the back palace for a long time, chatting with Huang Yueying and other women, and talking about the interesting things about going out on the war. After lunch, Zhang Xiu went to xuanshidian and began to deal with government affairs.


    For Zhang Xiu, it is not difficult to deal with government affairs, not to mention the presence of the cabinet. Many of the government affairs presented are drafted by the cabinet. It took Zhang Xiu less than half an hour to deal with the government affairs, and then arranged for people to send someone to inform Xu Shu and Jia Xu to come to the palace.


    Xu Shu and Jia Xu entered the palace, bowed respectfully to Zhang Xiu, and then took their seats.


    Xu Shu took the initiative to say, "I don''t know if your majesty is calling. What''s the matter?"


    Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "I called you two here to ask you about the prince. What do you think of the prince? "


    Xu Shu took the lead in saying: "in reply to your majesty, the crown prince is tough and independent. He is also a pro virtuous minister and far from being a sycophant. In particular, the crown prince knows a lot about the local people and the sufferings of the people these years. So I think the prince is a very good prince. "


    Jia Xu said: "the old minister thinks that the prince has the style of his majesty."


    Both people think highly of it.


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu was quite relieved.


    Zhang Cheng was recognized by Xu Shu and Jia Xu at the same time, and even let Jia Xu say that Zhang Cheng is like Zhang Xiu and has the style of Zhang Xiu. This alone is quite simple.


    Zhang Xiu also said: "do you think it''s appropriate for me to give the throne to the Prince now?"


    "Ah


    When Xu Shu and Jia Xu heard the speech, they were all shocked.


    Two people were surprised.


    Because no one thought that Zhang Xiu would choose the Zen throne for Zhang Cheng in her prime of life. No matter Xu Shu or Jia Xu, they all know Zhang Xiu and are familiar with her temperament. If they know that Zhang Xiu has said that, they must have thought it over.


    Otherwise, it won''t be mentioned.


    Xu Shu took a deep breath, suppressed his inner shock and said, "how could your majesty have such an idea? Now your majesty is in his prime of life. With your Majesty''s health, there will be no problem for another 30 or 40 years in power. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "today''s Daqin has a vast territory, far beyond the pre Qin and Han Dynasties. Of course, according to my idea, we can continue to expand, but now we have won a lot of territory. What we need to do for the time being is to stabilize these places and thoroughly consolidate them. That''s the fundamental thing. "


    "If the place is unstable, all the territory eventually seized will be lost."


    "It''s not in my nature."


    "And after the thorough treatment, it will be many years later."


    "I can''t wait."


    Zhang Xiu talked about it and said, "what''s more, if you give Daqin to the prince earlier, he will be in power earlier. Even if there is something wrong with his administration, I will be able to smooth it out. If I wait until the day when I abdicate, I''m afraid he will never grow up. So I''m going to abdicate in advance. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "what''s more, both of you agree that the crown prince has no problem in handling state affairs. Therefore, even if I am a Zen, I will not worry about it. "


    Jia Xu suddenly said, "please forgive me!"


    Zhang xiudao said: "Wen he, why do you say that?"


    Jia Xu said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty wants to take the Zen throne. Is it to follow the example of King Wuling of Zhao and let the prince ascend to the throne, while your majesty continues to lead the army to fight outside, or to completely delegate power?"


    "Ha ha ha..."


    After hearing this, Zhang Xiu immediately laughed.


    Jia Xu is really thoughtful.


    During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, King Wuling of Zhao state was called the wise leader of Zhao state. The weak state of Zhao, in the hands of King Wuling of Zhao, became stronger step by step.


    However, King Wuling of Zhao gave the throne to Prince Zhao he, that is, King Huiwen of Zhao. According to Zhao Wuling King''s idea, it is Zhao Wuling king who is in charge of the army, concentrate on attacking all parts of the country, open up territory for Zhao state, let Zhao Huiwen King stay in the capital of Zhao state, deal with the state affairs, so that Zhao Wuling king will not be distracted.


    But the problem is, things in the world are not so beautiful.


    A lot of imaginations can''t be implemented.


    After Zhao Wuling''s abdication, gradually, the power center was transferred to Zhao Huiwen, and Zhao Wuling was gradually isolated. A king of Zhao Wuling, who had no power in his hand, was unwilling to be lonely or even unwilling, so the change of sand dunes finally took place.


    King Zhao Wuling was surrounded by sand dune palace and starved to death.


    Zhao he was in power completely.


    After laughing, Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "since I am a Zen, I will delegate all the power to the crown prince regardless of the military and political power, and let the crown prince deal with the national division. I will not interfere in any external expedition, or in any internal reform, or in any internal administration. As long as there is peace in the country, I will not go out. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu continued: "if it''s time for the world to be in turmoil, I just need to go out of the mountain and cheer up. How dare my old subordinates disobey my orders?""Your majesty


    Jia Xu listened to Zhang Xiu''s words and opened his mouth respectfully.


    He admired Zhang Xiu''s wisdom.


    I admire Zhang Xiu''s decision.


    Because in the face of the power of a country, not everyone can let go. In her prime of life, Zhang Xiu left her power and was willing to retire to Zhang Cheng. This is the first person in ancient and modern times.


    Xu Shu also said: "Your Majesty is holy and bright!"


    He didn''t stand in the way.


    Because Zhang Cheng has enough ability to take charge of Daqin.


    Zhang Xiu said: "it seems that you two don''t intend to stop me. Now that you all agree, this matter is settled. Go down, I''ll summon the prince, and then I''ll make arrangements for the Zen throne. "


    "Here it is


    Xu Shu and Jia Xu were ordered to step down.


    For the time being, Zhang Xiu is sitting alone in the hall of Xuanshi, picking up a brush to write and draw.


    He used a huge piece of rice paper.


    What Zhang Xiu did was to draw a map.


    This is a picture of the whole world.


    Although Zhang Xiu only knows a general picture of the whole world, it does not affect Zhang Xiu''s depiction of the whole world. He started from Daqin, and gradually extended to the outside. Half an hour later, a picture of the whole world was presented to Zhang Xiu.


    Zhang Xiu put away the ink, dried the ink, looked at this picture of the whole world, his face was full of smiles.


    This is a gift for his son.


    This is the map he wants Zhang Chengli to forge ahead.


    Only let Zhang Cheng know that there are heaven and people outside the world, then Zhang Cheng will not be arrogant. He will not be complacent because of the vast territory of the Qin Dynasty.


    "Come and call the prince to the palace!"


    Zhang Xiu gave an order.


    It wasn''t long before the Palace officials went to pass the edict. Zhang Cheng had already come to the Xuanshi hall. Zhang Cheng bowed to the emperor and said, "my son, I''m here to see you!"


    Zhang Xiu nodded. He didn''t beat around the Bush and said, "I''ve already discussed with the cabinet. I''ll choose a good day. Zen is in you and you will be in charge of Daqin."


    "Plop!"


    Zhang Cheng directly knelt down, bowed down in front of Zhang Xiu, and solemnly said: "father, although my son has been in charge of the country for several years, he has absolutely no intention of transgression. I sincerely ask my father to observe. Daqin is inseparable from his father. The son minister, also cannot leave the father emperor


    Zhang Xiu said, "get up. It''s not a trial for you. It''s a settled thing."


    Zhang Cheng''s heart was beating with a splash. At this time, he felt a little excited.


    He was afraid before.


    I''m afraid that Zhang Xiu is too direct to deal with him.


    After Zhang Cheng stood up, he sat down and said, "father, my son is still young now. After all, my son is not even 20 years old now. "


    Zhang Xiu said: "although you are not twenty years old, you are steady in your life. I believe you. I''ve made up my mind, so you don''t have to say anything more, just accept it. "


    "Thank you, father!"


    Zhang Cheng said: "my son will live up to the great expectations of his father and emperor, and will surely govern the Qin Dynasty."


    Zhang Xiu waved and said, "come forward."


    Zhang Chengqi walks up to Zhang Xiu. When he looks down, he sees a map on Zhang Xiu''s desk. But Zhang Chengqi has never touched it before, so he still feels strange and doesn''t understand it.


    Zhang Xiu said directly: "this is a map of the whole world, a map of the whole world. The territory of Daqin is here... " With these words, Zhang Xiu points to the area where Daqin is located, and then explains the location one by one.


    When the territory of the Qin Dynasty was clarified, Zhang Xiu explained Koguryo, Kushan and even the Roman Empire, all of which were explained clearly to Zhang Cheng.


    Zhang Cheng was surprised to hear that.


    He never thought that the world would be so big and vast, even the territory where Daqin was located was just a corner, and there were more and more places.


    Zhang Cheng''s mind is impacted by time.


    Zhang Xiu continued: "I want to tell you that the world is very big. The territory of the Qin Dynasty today is nothing. Today''s achievements of Daqin are nothing. After you succeed to the throne, you should first stabilize the domestic situation, deal with all the local problems properly, and after you have solved the internal problems, you can send troops to the outside world. "


    After a pause, Zhang Xiu said: "I hope that in my lifetime, I can see the banner of Daqin and plant it all over the place. All the places where the sun falls are our territory. This is what I expect of you. "


    It''s not suitable for us to invade all over the world.


    The great Qin Dynasty needs the territory that Zhang Xiu has seized in recent years. Zhang Xiu didn''t want to stay in the palace, so she simply gave Zhang Cheng the Zen position and gave Zhang Cheng the responsibility.


    He believes Zhang Cheng can do well.


    He believes Zhang Cheng won''t let him down.


    Zhang Chengshen took a deep breath and solemnly said, "my father, my son, I swear to heaven that I will fulfill my father''s trust. I will live up to my father''s high hopes and lay a big territory."Zhang Xiu said with a light smile: "I believe you!"


    With the negotiation between Zhang Xiu and Zhang Cheng, everything began to prepare for Zen.


    The ninth day of September is an auspicious day.


    The world is blessed.


    On this day, Zhang Xiu, emperor of the great Qin Dynasty, and Chan, Prince of the great Qin Dynasty, were located in Zhang Cheng. After Zhang Xiu''s abdication, he left Chang''an with Wang Yue. Wang Yue was the commander of the royal guards, and Zhang xiudu was a Zen. Wang Yue resigned from his post and was no longer the commander of the royal guards, but Shi a took over.


    After Zhang Xiu left Chang''an, she took Huang Yueying, Daqiao, Xiaoqiao, Caojie and other girls to the south. She went south to Yangzhou and went directly to Taihu Lake in Yangzhou.


    With Zhang Xiu living in Taihu Lake, a palace was built here. Zhang Xiu and her daughters live a leisurely life. With the passage of time, Zhang Xiu''s original thin offspring gradually spread and flourished.


    After a few years of recuperation, Zhang Cheng began to expand.


    Since then, Daqin entered the era of development.
